        "raw_content": "Salon Kitty/Madam Kitty (1976/1977) **\u00bd\nThe boundary between the worlds of art film and exploitation film has long been a porous one. In the 1950\u2019s, when the big Hollywood studios began concentrating their production resources into fewer, costlier movies, and the owners of many small, struggling American theaters began running subtitled prints of European imports simply in order to have something new up on the screen during the other twenty weeks of the year, it didn\u2019t take those exhibitors long to notice that they sold the most tickets when the foreign film in question occasionally put a bare ass or two on display. By 1960 or thereabouts, the very term \u201cart film\u201d had taken on connotations of euphemistic salaciousness in American parlance. Meanwhile, in the countries where such movies were being produced, filmmakers at every level of seriousness seemed to be getting it into their heads that all routes to artistic growth bottlenecked at having the cast strip off and climb into bed. Before the decade was out, nudity and sex of varying degrees of explicitness were turning up in even the dourest and most dismal products of Europe\u2019s cinematic avant-garde, but it was during the 1970\u2019s that \u201cArt or smut?\u201d really became a challenging question to answer.\nItaly\u2019s Tinto Brass has made an entire career out of posing that question, and he\u2019s consistently managed to finagle larger sums of studio money with which to do it than practically anybody. In this country, he\u2019s probably best remembered for directing Bob Guccione\u2019s monumental X-rated ego-trip, Caligula. What brought Brass to the Penthouse publisher\u2019s attention was Salon Kitty, his contribution to the Italian vogue for Nazi-themed sexploitation movies brought on by the success of The Night Porter in 1974. In much the same manner that Guccione envisioned for his Imperial Roman sleaze epic, Salon Kitty put up arthouse wallpaper on the theme of absolute power corrupting absolutely all over what was really just an excuse to wallow for two hours and change in elaborate portrayals of twisted sexual decadence. Like so many of its Euro-trash contemporaries, Salon Kitty makes a big show of trying to say something serious, but its actual message seems to be \u201cTinto Brass really likes taking pictures of naked girls\u2014 and of naked guys, too, for that matter.\u201d\nGermany, summer of 1939. SS Obergruppenf\u00fchrer Biondo (John Steiner, of Shock and Yor: The Hunter from the Future) summons his subordinate, Untergruppenf\u00fchrer Helmut Wallenberg (Helmut Berger, from Faceless and The Secret of Dorian Gray), to charge him with a curious mission. Wallenberg is to recruit about twenty girls from all over the country. They must be beautiful, intelligent, and charming, but most of all, they must be utterly committed Nazis. Now that\u2019s strange enough, but wait \u2018til you hear why Biondo wants these girls recruited. Wallenberg is supposed to train them all to be whores! (What? No, Frank Miller had nothing to do with this movie\u2014 why do you ask?) And this being an SS project, they\u2019re not supposed to become just any whores, but rather Aryan super-whores, willing and able to meet any sexual challenge for the glory of the Fatherland. Wallenberg doesn\u2019t quite get it, either, but a mission is a mission. He and his adjutant, Rauss (Dan Van Husen, from Tender and Perverse Emanuelle and Killer Barbys vs. Dracula), set off at once to comb the length and breadth of Germany in search of young women to fit Biondo\u2019s bill. Once a group of likely candidates has been assembled, Wallenberg puts them all through their paces (\u201cCoitus! Anal coitus! Masturbation! Fellatio!\u201d) in a weirdly balletic orgy with a platoon of soldiers. Then comes a more strenuous test meant to discover the girls\u2019 limits for obedience in the face of \u201cperversion.\u201d Are they willing to have sex with other women? With amputees? With hunchbacked dwarves? With Sal Baccaro? What about with Jews and Gypsies? (As you might gather, that last one is a trick question. Wallenberg is looking for the Meatloaf response: I\u2019ll do anything for the Reich, but I won\u2019t do that.) Finally, Wallenberg winnows the initial pool down to only the very best, the most notable of whom, for our purposes and his alike, is a haughty teenaged idealist by the name of Margherita (Teresa Ann Savoy, of Caligula and Bambina). Wallenberg knew Margherita already; in fact, he tried to date her a couple of years ago, but she would not have him. No one, I expect, will be surprised to see that Wallenberg tries to exploit his new position of power over the girl for all it\u2019s worth now that he\u2019s her pimp by order of Heinrich Himmler.\nMeanwhile, in Berlin, at a brothel/cabaret called Salon Kitty, proprietress Kitty Kellerman (Ingrid Thulin, from The Damned and Short Night of the Glass Dolls) clings desperately to the free-wheeling Weimar spirit, six year after the Weimar Republic effectively voted itself out of existence by electing Hitler chancellor. Kitty has no interest in politics, one way or the other; so long as she\u2019s free to go on being Berlin\u2019s most beloved singing, dancing madam, she\u2019d be equally happy to have her girls entertain Nazis, democrats, communists, monarchists, or anarchists. She must be pretty successful in catering to all tastes, too, because business hasn\u2019t slacked off any with the change of regime. In fact, every single member of the Nazi high command (except for that fat slob, G\u00f6ring\u2014 I wonder what his problem is?) has been known to pay a visit to Salon Kitty from time to time. But then a couple of Gestapo agents drop in, and turn Kitty\u2019s world upside down with a single \u201cCome with us, please.\u201d The Gestapo men were sent by Wallenberg. He wants the brothel closed down at once, and the girls deported. (Kitty prefers to employ foreigners, for the sake of her club\u2019s exotic image.) He further insists that Kitty herself enter the Schutzstaffel\u2019s employ, plying her trade for the military\u2019s benefit at a luxurious villa out in the countryside. I guess we know now where Wallenberg\u2019s SS \u00dcberhuren are going to be working, huh?\nAnd now, at last, we learn why the SS has gotten into the pimping business in the first place. The rest of the world remains in ignorance of this, of course, but Hitler has been gearing the country up for an invasion of Poland. The Poles themselves should be no contest, and the secret treaty Ribbentrop just signed with the Russians should take care of that potential hassle, too. However, Poland is also theoretically under British protection, with a not-remotely-secret treaty guaranteeing that no foreign army will cross its oft-violated borders unless they\u2019re prepared to take on John Bull too. Granted, the way Neville Chamberlain bent over and spread \u2018em at Munich last year suggests otherwise, but there\u2019s still just the slightest chance that invading Poland will mean war with Great Britain. Consequently, the Reich has great need just now to be certain of its armed forces, and what better way to root out cowards, traitors, deserters, and defectors than to eavesdrop on the pillow-talk of soldiers who have been rotated back on leave? That\u2019s why the SS wants direct command of the brothel; that\u2019s why Kitty was relocated to a building Biondo\u2019s men have had time to rig with hidden recording devices; that\u2019s why only committed National Socialists were considered in recruiting the stable. Margherita and all the others are to be the eyes and ears of the Party, uncovering crimes and conspiracies in a way that no ordinary ring of informers or agents provocateur could match. And if the hunt for malfeasance should give Wallenberg something to use against his superiors as well, then so much the better for him.\nNote, however, that this scheme takes no account of the sympathies of Kitty Kellerman\u2014 in fact, she\u2019s being kept in the dark about the whole thing. Nor does it take into account the possibility of changes of heart among the spying hookers, such as might come about if a kind-hearted soldier like Hauptmann Hans Reiter (Bekim Fehmiu) and an especially sheltered and unworldly agent like Margherita should happen to fall in love. Finally, there are the small matters of Margherita\u2019s bitter personal loathing for Wallenberg, and of Kitty\u2019s longstanding international connections. When your master plan revolves around a woman who counts among her friends an Italian diplomat (Four Flies on Grey Velvet\u2019s Sefano Satta Flores) and an American secret service agent (John Ireland, from The House of Seven Corpses and Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat), it probably doesn\u2019t pay to piss her off.\nSo which is it, then\u2014 art or smut? I personally am siding with the latter. I don\u2019t say so pejoratively, however, for there is such a thing as good porn, and Salon Kitty makes a fairly close approach to that status. The trick, I think, is to have just enough artistic pretension to believe that a sex movie can be about more than sex alone, but not so much as to lose sight of the fact that the film still needs to be sexy. If an art-porn flick is to succeed, it must succeed as porn first\u2014 then you can worry about the art side of the equation. In specific regard to Salon Kitty, Brass\u2019s porn-cred is secure. Mind you, fetishists will have more fun than vanilla types (but then, we usually do), and it helps to have, shall we say, ecumenical tastes. (This is the sort of movie in which your stance on the issue of men in drag doing can-can routines with their junk hanging out becomes a distinctly relevant consideration.) Brass\u2019s striving after art, however, is compromised by the fact that almost nothing he has to say about Nazi Germany hasn\u2019t already been said 10,000 times before, and far more cogently and intelligently than he manages here. Who, by 1976, could have failed to grasp the irony of a political party rising to power at least partly on the strength of a campaign against \u201cdecadence,\u201d and then immediately transforming all of society into an expression of their leaders\u2019 unleashed collective id? In putting frilly, pink panties on a Wehrmacht general, Brass isn\u2019t telling us anything we don\u2019t already know. Salon Kitty also has a pronounced tendency to wander, and would have benefited from some pretty ruthless editing. For instance, we really don\u2019t need to see four (or maybe it was five\u2014 they start to blur together eventually) of Kitty Kellerman\u2019s cabaret performances in their entirety; one or two from beginning to end, and then snippets of the rest, would have been fine. In any case, I can\u2019t imagine that there was ever a sexploitation movie made that gained anything from a running time in excess of two hours. (Exactly how much in excess of two hours depends on the edit, of course.)\nWhat Salon Kitty does right is to display a considerable breadth of imagination in devising manifestations of depravity, and to present its slight story and threadbare themes from a novel and memorable perspective. There is a fine line between iconography and fetishism, and Brass proves himself as adept as anyone at nudging the paraphernalia of Nazism across it. It certainly doesn\u2019t take a credentialed psychotherapist to find the sexual\u2014 and particularly homosexual\u2014 undercurrent in the Nazis\u2019 cultish obsession with male physical perfection, but the bizarre ways in which Brass plays it up here are consistently both effective and entertaining. He\u2019s even better at exaggerating the hothouse Weimar culture of which Salon Kitty represents the last dying gasp. The conventional wisdom has it that when the Kaiserreich fell after World War I, the German people let their newly established freedoms\u2014 political, social, and cultural\u2014 go to their heads. Perhaps there\u2019s some truth to that, too, for Germany in the 1920\u2019s was unquestionably on the cutting edge of almost everything conservatives the world over found horrifying. One might almost say that Germany went through the 1970\u2019s half a century early. Brass makes clear that he\u2019s going to play that notion to the hilt before the opening credits are even halfway through, too. Those credits roll over a scene of Kitty Kellerman up on stage, singing a song that would do any modern-day female impersonator proud. At the beginning of the first chorus, Kitty turns her other profile to reveal that she\u2019s been performing in an outrageous costume that puts the left half of her body in male drag. (At this point, all the Go Nagai fans in the audience say to themselves, \u201cSo that\u2019s what Baron Ashler did for a living before taking the job as Dr. Hell\u2019s lackey\u2026\u201d) It was a smart move on Brass\u2019s part to set Salon Kitty in such a place, and to make its proprietress and star attraction the film\u2019s viewpoint character. Doing so puts the movie on a very different footing from all the scads of death-camp super-roughies on the Love Camp Seven model, and shifts its thematic perspective in a subtle but important way. With Kitty herself as the focal point, Salon Kitty winds up being less about the rise of Nazism (as seen through a thick prism of sleaze) than about the final extinguishment of the liberal dream of Weimar (again, as seen through a thick prism of sleaze). That\u2019s a point on which Brass really can claim some originality.",

        "raw_content": "Reflections On The Israeli Holocaust In Gaza\nPosted: Fri Sep 12, 2014 8:44 pm Post subject: Israeli Intelligence Agents Blow The Whistle\nhttp://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2014/sep/12/israeli-intelligenc e-agents-palestinians-surveillance-video\nAttacks on Al Aqsa compound proof Israel not interested in peace:\n(CHICAGO 10/13/2014) \u2013 The American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) is outraged that Israeli forces today fired tear gas, stun grenades and rubber-coated steel bullets at Palestinians inside Al Aqsa mosque, disrupting the holy site\u2019s sanctity and safety. The Palestinians were taking refuge from aggressive Israeli settlers, who, with increasing frequency, have been harassing Palestinian worshipers at Islam\u2019s holiest site in Palestine and third holiest place overall.\nAfter dawn prayer today, extreme right settler groups, protected by Israeli soldiers and police, entered the Al Aqsa mosque compound for the second time in less than one week. At the same time, most Palestinian men under 50 and nearly all women were banned from offering prayers in the mosque, in contravention of international law.\nIsraeli attacks against Al Aqsa are not new. For instance, in 1967, immediately after the end of the Six Day War, \u201cthe Israeli army chief rabbi, General Shlomo Goren, tried to convince a commander of the conquering forces, Uzi Narkis, to blow up the mosque \u2018once and for all,\u2019\u201d according to published historical accounts.\nWhat\u2019s changed is the frequency of settler incursions into the Muslim holy site, coupled with discussions in the Israeli Knesset about dividing Al Aqsa in the manner of the Ibrahimi mosque in Hebron, which apportioned two-thirds of the mosque for Jews, prohibiting the area to Palestinians. The Jerusalem Municipality also is discussing plans to turn the courtyard area between the Dome of the Rock mosque and Al Aqsa into a public park. Israeli authorities already have given the extremist settler group Elad the right to create an oversized \u2018visitor center\u2019 that will abut the mosque compound, further cutting off Palestinians from their historical religious site. UNESCO is so concerned about recent \u2018Judaization\u2019 developments in Jerusalem it dispatched a fact-finding committee to study the issue in April.\nAll these actions come at a time when Israeli settlers have forcibly moved into Palestinian homes and the creation of new settlements in East Jerusalem are planned.\n\u201cIsrael has no intention whatsoever of allowing Palestinians sovereignty over anything, even their religious sites,\u201d said AMP Chairman Dr. Hatem Bazian. \u201cWhile these attacks on Palestinians at Aqsa are reprehensible, they are only symptomatic of the larger problem here, the Zionist colonial desire for all of Palestine and Israel\u2019s desire to annex all of Jerusalem, thereby negating any hope for peace.\u201d\nAMP calls upon President Barak Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to unequivocally call upon Israel to immediately cease all hostilities at Al Aqsa mosque compound and to respect Palestinians \u2013 both Muslims and Christians \u2013 the right to worship in peace and security.\nCase dropped against protesters who cost Elbit drone parts factory $280,000: http://electronicintifada.net/blogs/asa-winstanley/case-dropped-agains t-protesters-who-cost-elbit-drone-parts-factory-280000\n'Criminal charges against against nine Palestine solidarity activists who shut down a UK drone engines factory for two days last summer were dropped at the end of January.\nThe case had been due to go to trial next week. But the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), pulled out at the last minute, after company managers mysteriously decided to go back on previous commitments to testify against the nine.\nOne of the protesters Adie Mormech told The Electronic Intifada today that this was a \u201cgreen light for further action\u201d by activists against the factory.\nEwa Jasiewicz, another of the nine, said that UAV Engines Limited was now a \u201cprime target\u201d for nonviolent action to shut the factory down. UAV Engines is owned by Israeli arms firm Elbit Systems.\nJasiewicz said the group accused the factory of making engines for drones used in Israeli attacks against Palestinians. Everything the factory says should be treated with skepticism, she said: \u201cThe most decisive evidence, we feel, is that they dropped the charges.\u201d In other words, they let the activists get away with it rather then let the truth come out in court.\nThe nine published an opinion piece at Mondoweiss today calling for more direct action and are part of London Palestine Action.\nDisclosures avoided\nScaling the roof of the factory on 5 August last year, the nine protesters locked the front gate of the factory, locked themselves down to the roof, unfurled a banner and bunked down for the night, saying they had enough supplies to last them a week.\nAt the height of Israel\u2019s killings of civilians in the Gaza Strip that summer, the protesters were drawing attention to the UK\u2019s arms trade with Israel, and called for a comprehensive two-way arms ban. Their banner read \u201cUK: Stop Arming Israel.\u201d\nLawyers for the defendants say the case collapsed after either Elbit or the UK government decided they did not want to disclose details about licenses for arms exports to Israel.\nThe activists had pleaded not guilty to charges of \u201cpreventing lawful activity,\u201d on the basis that the Staffordshire factory was aiding and abetting war crimes and that its regular business was therefore illegal.\nThe group argued in pre-trial hearings and statements that they acted \u201cto prevent the inevitable death, injury and suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza.\u201d\nElbit \u201crunning scared\u201d\nThe CPS told The Independent on Friday that the case was dropped after two witnesses from the company were no longer prepared to give evidence, and that documentation would not be forthcoming. \u201cWe deemed that there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction,\u201d the CPS said.\nBased on police reports and witness statements examined by The Electronic Intifada, these two witnesses are thought to be David Cliff and Jody Yates, two managers at UAV Engines named as key witnesses for the prosecution along with fourteen police officers.\nThe defendants\u2019 legal team asked for disclosure of documents relating to UAV Engines\u2019 export licences, as well as documents on any checks done by the government to ensure that parts produced by the factory were not being used by Israel in its attacks on Gaza.\nJessica Nero, one of the defendants, said in a press release that the group had mixed feelings about the case being dropped: \u201cThis news is bittersweet for us, as Elbit and the UK government have run scared from having their role in Israeli war crimes put on trial.\u201d\nElbit\u2019s drones played a key role in Israel\u2019s killings of more than 2,200 Palestinians in Gaza last summer, Nero noted. \u201cUN bodies and international human rights organizations have accused Israel of war crimes during its recent Gaza massacre,\u201d she added. \u201cWhat will it take for the UK government to impose a two-way military embargo on Israel and hold it accountable for its crimes against humanity?\u201d\nThe UK has authorized \u00a349 million ($73.6 million) worth of arms sales to Israel since 2010. Figures from the Campaign Against the Arms Trade show that the UK exported \u00a37 million ($10.5 million) of weapons in the six months leading up to the summer 2014 war on Gaza, including components for drones.\nThe dropping of the case by UK prosecutors leaves many unanswered questions. But what seems in little doubt now is that the UAV Engines factory now may now be exposed to similar protests in future.\nAccording to general manager David Cliff in a written police statement, seen by The Electronic Intifada, direct labor costs to the company of the protest amounted to between \u00a310,000 and \u00a311,000 (between $15,000 and $16,500). Workers had to be sent home for the duration.\nCliff also wrote that: \u201cThe value of lost production for the two days we were forced to close amounted to \u00a3186,000\u201d \u2013 almost $280,000.\nIn his statement, Cliff also confirmed that UAV Engines \u201cis owned by Elbit Systems which is based in Israel\u201d and that it made drone engines.\nIn one bizarre sentence, Cliff describes the rooftop protesters \u201cas vagrant youths.\u201d He claimed there was \u201ca safety concern with the staff as we don\u2019t know what the protesters are capable of.\u201d\nBut in one tellingly defensive line, Cliff claimed: \u201cWe are a legitimate company that supply engines all over the world but we do not supply to Israel. [sic] for use in Israel.\u201d\nThis section of the handwritten statement has a period between \u201cwe do not supply to Israel\u201d and \u201cfor use in Israel.\u201d This makes it seem like the latter statement was an afterthought, perhaps dictated by a company lawyer.\nJasiewicz said the company was playing a \u201csemantic game\u201d to obscure its material support for Israeli war crimes.'\n(Pictures in original)\nOther articles from 'The Other Israel' newsletter:\nBethlehem mayor recruiting pope to intervene on West Bank barrier\nHaaretz and Lauren Gelfond Feldinger - Palestinians argue that the wall, in any of the locations Israel has proposed, would either separate the school from the town where the students live, or block off access to the only green area near Bethlehem\nNew Israel Fund blacklisted - anti-Zionists everywhere\nAmericans for Peace Now - News Nosh daily review of Israeli media - Rightist Israeli politicians boycott democracy conference over NGO backing - Politicians from Likud and Habayit Hayehudi announced they would not participate in a conference initiated by Haaretz because of `funding by an anti-Zionist body,` the New Israel Fund.

The Israeli authorities had detained him several times, or stopped him at the border, and taken away his passport. Among all Jerusalem clergymen he is the only one who has no privilege of passing through the VIP gate in the airport \u2013 because of his nationality. \u201cFor the Israeli authorities, I am not a bishop, but rather a Palestinian,\u201d explains his Beatitude. When talking on the phone he says a lot of words you would normally hear from a Muslim: \u201cAlhamdulillah, Insha\u2019Allah, Masha\u2019Allah\u201d. He speaks Arabic, and the Arabic for \u2018god\u2019 is Allah, whether you are a Christian or a Muslim.\nYour Beatitude, what\u2019s it like being the Palestinian bishop in the Holy Land?\nFirstly, I\u2019d like to confirm that I am the only Palestinian bishop in the Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem. A fellow bishop is serving in the city of Irbid in the north of Jordan; and there are also several Palestinian priests.\nI take pride in belonging to this great religious institution that\u2019s over 2,000 years old.\nMy church has been protecting the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the sacred items related to the life of Christ and Christian Church history.\nI am proud of my religion and nationality, I am proud to belong to my fatherland. I am a Palestinian, and I belong to this religious people who are fighting for the sake of their freedom and dignity to implement their dreams and national rights.\nI support Palestinians and share their cause and their issues. We the Palestinian Orthodox Christians are not detached from their hardships.\nThe Palestinian issue is a problem that concerns all of us, Christians and Muslims alike. It\u2019s a problem of every free intellectual individual aspiring for justice and freedom in this world.\nWe the Palestinian Christians suffer along with the rest of Palestinians from occupation and hardships of our economic situation. Muslims and Christians suffer equally, as there is no difference in suffering for any of us. We are all living in the same complicated circumstances, and overcoming the same difficulties.\nAs a church and as individuals we protect this people, and we hope a day will come when Palestinians get their freedom and dignity.\nA Christian pilgrim holds a cross as he dips in the water after a ceremony at the baptismal site known as Qasr el-Yahud on the banks of the Jordan River near the West Bank city of Jericho January 18, 2015. (Reuters/Mohamad Torokman)\nFor those coming to visit the Holy Land there are few opportunities to see how hard the Palestinians\u2019 situation is. What would you like to say to those wishing to understand better the Palestinian problem?\nThe Israel authorities treat the Palestinian people in a way we can never accept or approve, first and foremost because Israel treats Palestinians as foreigners, as if we were strangers in our land.\nPalestinians have never been strangers either to Jerusalem or to the entire homeland. Israel is an occupation force which treats us as visitors or some temporary residents. But we are the native people of this land. We didn\u2019t come here, we have always been here. In contrast, Israel appeared out of the blue.\nThey are treating us as if we came here from elsewhere, as if we accidentally and recently strayed into this land. But we are the rightful owners of this land. We didn\u2019t intrude into Israel. Israel intruded into our lives in 1948, and in 1967 it occupied Eastern Jerusalem. We have been here long before Israel. By the time Israel came here, our forefathers had been living here for many centuries.\nThis is why we cannot accept Israel treating us like strangers to our own homeland. I shall be honest and say it over again: both Christians and Muslims suffer the same from the Israeli authorities.\nIs visiting Jerusalem as difficult to a Christian Palestinian from the West Bank as for a Muslim?\nThey don\u2019t ask if a person arriving from Beit Jala or Ramallah to Jerusalem is a Christian or a Muslim. They only ask one question, \u201cDo you have a permit to enter Jerusalem or not?\u201d\nThe pass allowing a Palestinian to enter Jerusalem is issued by Israel. No one can come through without one. In pursuing its racist policy towards the Palestinian people Israel disregards different confessions. We are all targeted just the same. It all depends on getting a pass, whether you\u2019re a Christian or a Muslim.\nWe all are their targets.\nOn top of that, Israel took control of a lot of property of the Orthodox Christian Church and is interfering with the internal affairs of the Church. They put pressure on the Palestinian Christians in all sorts of ways trying to force them to leave.\nThere is only one cause of suffering for both Christians and Muslims in the Holy Land.\nThe recent attack on the French satirical magazine triggered a wave of anti-Muslim marches in Europe. Netanyahu walked in the front row of such a march. What it your attitude to what happened?\nWe denounce the attacks in Paris which were committed by the people allegedly representing a particular religion.\nBut they do not represent any religion \u2013 they are murderers.\nThis attack was committed by the people, who claimed to have faith, but they definitely don\u2019t represent Islam and cannot act on behalf of Islam, they only do harm and hurt the image of Islam through what they do.\nAt the same time, we denounce just as much terrorist operations in Syria and Iraq as we denounce the terrorist attacks in Paris.\nThose who committed the terror attack in Paris and elsewhere, belong to the same groups that are engaged in terrorism in Syria and Iraq and attack sacred places, desecrate churches and kidnap religious leaders.\nThey attack women and children in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq.\nWe were witnesses of the terror act in Lebanon\u2019s Tripoli just days ago which killed dozens of innocent people who were at a caf\u00e9.\nWe condemn the terror attacks in Paris and we equally condemn any such attacks in any part of the world. We strongly oppose the idea of connecting these attacks to Islam.\nWe are currently preparing for an international conference that religious figures \u2013 Christian, Muslim and Judaist \u2013 from many countries will take part in to assert that we, the representatives of the three monotheistic religions, are against terror, fanaticism and violence used under religious slogans. The conference might take place in Amman, Jordan.\nTo a Western mind, Allahu Akbar sounds like a threat. What do Christians of the Holy Land think about them?\nWe Christians also say Allahu Akbar. This is an expression of our understanding that the Creator is great. We don\u2019t want this phrase to be related to terrorism and crimes.\nWe refuse to associate these words with massacres and murders.\nWe speak against using this phrase in this context. Those who do, they insult our religion and our religious values.\nThose using these words while taking some unreligious, unspiritual, uncivilized actions are harming the religion.\nAllahu Akbar is an expression of our faith.\nOne must not use these words for non-religion-related purposes in order to justify violence and terror.\nChristian priests hold a Christmas Midnight Mass at the Church of the Nativity in the West Bank town of Bethlehem December 25, 2014. (Reuters/Ammar Awad)\nDo people say Allahu Akbar in church?\nFor us, Allah is not an Islamic term. This is a word used in Arabic to indicate the Creator who\u2019s made the world we are living in. So when we say Allah in our prayers we mean the Creator of this world.\nIn our prayers and pleas, in our Orthodox Christian religious ceremonies we use exactly this word. We say, glory be to Allah in all times. We say Allah a lot during our liturgy. It\u2019s erroneous to think that the word Allah is only used by Muslims.\nWe the Arab Christians say Allah in our Arabic language as a way to identify and address the Creator in our prayers.\nIs this all about Christ? Was he the one to provoke a religious split in the Holy Land? Christians and Muslims recognize that Jesus Christ had been born, and they are awaiting his second coming, and the judgment day. Jews deny this however, and await their Messiah.\nWe Christians believe that Jesus has already come. We have recently celebrated Christmas as a reminder that Jesus came into this world, that he was born in Bethlehem, and began his road here in the Holy Land for the sake of all mankind, and for the salvation of the world.\nSo as far as we are concerned, Jesus has already come.\nJews believe that he hasn\u2019t come yet, and await his coming. This is the main disagreement between Jews and us. We believe that Jesus has already come, whereas they don\u2019t.\nDespite this fact, we are not at war with Jews. We do not express aggression against Jews or anyone else in the world, despite any differences in our beliefs.\nWe pray for those who disagree with us.\nWhen Jesus came into this world he didn\u2019t tell us to hate, ignore, or be at war with one or the other; he didn\u2019t tell us to kill this one or that one. He gave us one very simple instruction: to love one another. When Jesus told us to love one another this love wasn\u2019t conditioned by what a person was like, or what he was doing. If we are indeed true Christians it is our debt to love all people, and to treat them with positivity, and with love.\nWhen we see someone who\u2019s sinful, lost, and distant from Allah and from faith, someone who acts wrongly, then it is our duty to pray for him although he might be different from us and our religion. When we have religious disagreements with people we pray that Allah would guide them the right way. Hatred, anger, and accusations of having a wrong faith are not a part of our ethics as Christians. This is the key disagreement and difference between the Jewish religion and ours. The Jewish religion that had existed before Christ is the religion of people who were awaiting Jesus\u2019 coming. Many Jews followed him, yet there were those who didn\u2019t believe in him, and rejected him.\nWe know that Jesus was persecuted, and so were the early Christians. For instance, Herod the King killed thousands of babies in Bethlehem thinking that Jesus would be among them. The book of the Acts of the Apostles, as well as sacred tradition, talk about numerous instances of persecution of early Christians.\nDespite that, we see each person who disagrees with us on religion as our brother, our fellow human. Allah created all of us, he gave us life, therefore it is our duty to love each person, and to pray for those who are mistaken or are misunderstanding, so that Allah would guide them the right way.\nIs that why Christians and Muslims are persecuted?\nWe don\u2019t divide the Palestinian people based on who is Christian and who is Muslim, who is religious and who isn\u2019t, who is left or what party they are a member of. We don\u2019t divide the people based on convictions and religion.\nFor the resistance it doesn\u2019t matter whether they are Muslim or Christian.\nRegardless of what their political views may be, all Palestinians actively support the idea that the Palestinian people should be able to exercise their rights and achieve their dream.\nYes, a number Christians have been killed since 1948 to this day. Some Christians have been driven away from their houses. Some Christian villages have been completely destroyed, and now there\u2019s not a single house or resident there, for example, Al Galil in the Golan Heights.\nMany churches have been attacked in Jerusalem; there have been attempts to seize their property and lands.\nThere are Christians in Israeli prisons \u2013 not as many as Muslims, but there are some. The Christian community is smaller in general, but we have our own martyrs who were killed and prisoners who spent years and years behind bars.\nChristians suffer under the Israeli occupation just the same as Muslims \u2013 the entire Palestinian population suffers under it. They don\u2019t distinguish between us.\nAre there any special aspects when it comes to Christians living in the Holy Land?\nHere\u2019s one of the many examples, connected to the Russian Orthodox Church.\nThe Holy Trinity Cathedral located in the western part of Jerusalem belonged to the Russian Orthodox Church, but after 1948 Israel used the situation in Russia to its advantage and seized some of the buildings around the Cathedral, using them as police quarters and a prison with torture practices.\nWhen someone says \u201cmoskobiya\u201d, referring to something connected to the Moscow Patriarchate, something holy and spiritual, the first thing that comes to the mind of a Palestinian living in Jerusalem is torture, police, interrogation and prison.\nIn Nazareth, for example, the word \u201cmoskobiya\u201d is associated exclusively with the old Russian school where the Palestinian cultural elite, scientists and politicians studied. Although it was closed after the 1917 Revolution in Russia, its fame lives on.\nSo it\u2019s only for the Palestinians in Jerusalem.\nWhat do Palestinian Christians, I mean Orthodox Christians first of all, think of the Ukraine crisis?\nOverall, we are deeply concerned with the divide in Ukraine. We still believe all Ukrainian Christians must stay within the fold of the Mother Church that is the Moscow Patriarchate.\nI wish the Ukraine crisis would resolve through dialogue so that we see reconciliation and an end to violence and bloodshed.\nChristians do not need wars, killings and massacres. This political crisis must be resolved in a peaceful way. The Church must work hard to ensure that the divisions are bridged and overcome.\nThe Orthodox Church in Ukraine is strong because most of the people preach Orthodox Christianity.\nDivisions must be healed. We really hope that the efforts by the Moscow Patriarchate and the Patriarchate of Constantinople will help to re-unite the Ukrainian Church.\nI believe the split can be reversed and those who broke away could come back. But in order for that to happen we need humility, belief and strong will.\nWe pray for the Orthodox Church in Ukraine.\nIsrael rejects UN call for international presence in East Jerusalem\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Cedc2S5Muc\nEuro-Med Human Rights Monitor issued a new report on Friday, saying that the Israeli military has used excessive force and committed arbitrary killings in the Palestinian territories.\nIn a press conference in Geneva, human rights expert Daniela Donges said regarding the latest escalation in violence: \"The Israeli government believes it can violate the human rights of the Palestinians it controls with impunity. And who can blame them? It indeed has gotten away with apartheid and brazen war crimes for decades. If anything, it has been rewarded, with millions of dollars of so-called aid and weaponry from the United States and preferred trade status by Europe.\"\nThe report focused on the escalation over the past few weeks, as Israeli soldiers deployed on the border with the Gaza Strip and in the occupied West Bank.\nIt investigated the case of 13-year-old Ahmed Manasra in Jerusalem, whose video clip went viral on social media after he was left bleeding while an Israeli was cursing him and wishing him death. The report collected eyewitness accounts stating that Manasra \u201cwas beaten with sticks and metal pipes in the town of Hezma, north Jerusalem.\nMeanwhile, an Israeli police spokesperson said that Manasra was shot when he attempted to stab an Israeli. Euro-Med reported that has been admitted to the Israeli hospital Hadassah Ein Kerem with serious injuries, under continued detention.\nAmong the other many cases that the report showed in a press conference is Israa Abed, 29, a Palestinian holding an Israeli ID.\nAbed \"is another example of Israel\u2019s deliberate targeting and arbitrary killing of civilians,\" the report said.\n\"Like the others, Israeli authorities claimed Abed attempted to stab an Israeli soldier. However, video recordings from surveillance cameras in the central train station of the city of Afula, where the incident took place, documented Israeli authorities\u2019 reckless disregard for life.\u201d\nDr. Rami Abdu, chairman of Euro-Med Monitor, says his team has collected evidence from eyewitnesses accounts that Abed was terrified when she found herself surrounded by Israeli soldiers pointing weapons at her.\n\u201cThe soldiers shouted at her to remove her headscarf and drop her bag. The young woman refused to remove her hijab, but raised her hands and begged the officers not to shoot. Nonetheless, the soldiers shot her with four live bullets in the upper part of her body\u201d.\nhttp://www.middleeasteye.net/news/human-rights-group-call-israel-s-act ions-system-structural-violence-414665801\n40 Dead, 5,511 Wounded: UN Releases Figures on Palestinian Casualties in Gaza's Mass Protests on Israel Border\nHamas says the protests will continue even after Nakba Day on May 15\nhttps://www.haaretz.com/middle-east-news/palestinians/40-dead-5-511-wo unded-un-figures-on-casualties-in-gaza-mass-protests-1.6030556\nJack Khoury Apr 25, 2018 9:33 PM\n2018.MOHAMMED ABED/AFP\nForty Palestinians have been killed and 5,511 were wounded in the mass protests along the border fence between the Gaza Strip and Israel since March 30, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported on Tuesday.

There\u2019s the impression that maybe someone lowered the bar for using live fire, and this may be the result?\nZvika Fogel: Ron, let\u2019s maybe look at this matter on three levels. At the tactical level that we all love dealing with, the local one, also at the level of values, and with your permission, we will also rise up to the strategic level. At the tactical level, any person who gets close to the fence, anyone who could be a future threat to the border of the State of Israel and its residents, should bear a price for that violation. If this child or anyone else gets close to the fence in order to hide an explosive device or check if there are any dead zones there or to cut the fence so someone could infiltrate the territory of the State of Israel to kill us \u2026\nNesiel: Then, then his punishment is death?\nFogel: His punishment is death. As far as I\u2019m concerned then yes, if you can only shoot him to stop him, in the leg or arm \u2013 great. But if it\u2019s more than that then, yes, you want to check with me whose blood is thicker, ours or theirs. It is clear to you that if one such person will manage to cross the fence or hide an explosive device there \u2026\nNesiel: But we were taught that live fire is only used when the soldiers face immediate danger.\nFogel: Come, let\u2019s move over to the level of values. Assuming that we understood the tactical level, as we cannot tolerate a crossing of our border or a violation of our border, let\u2019s proceed to the level of values. I am not Ahmad Tibi, I am Zvika Fogel. I know how these orders are given. I know how a sniper does the shooting. I know how many authorizations he needs before he receives an authorization to open fire. It is not the whim of one or the other sniper who identifies the small body of a child now and decides he\u2019ll shoot. Someone marks the target for him very well and tells him exactly why one has to shoot and what the threat is from that individual. And to my great sorrow, sometimes when you shoot at a small body and you intended to hit his arm or shoulder it goes even higher. The picture is not a pretty picture. But if that\u2019s the price that we have to pay to preserve the safety and quality of life of the residents of the State of Israel, then that\u2019s the price. But now, with your permission, let us go up one level and look at the overview. It is clear to you that Hamas is fighting for consciousness at the moment. It is clear to you and to me \u2026\nNesiel: Is it hard for them to do? Aren\u2019t we providing them with sufficient ammunition in this battle?\nFogel: We\u2019re providing them but \u2026\nNesiel: Because it does not do all that well for us, those pictures that are distributed around the world.\nFogel: Look, Ron, we\u2019re even terrible at it. There\u2019s nothing to be done, David always looks better against Goliath. And in this case, we are the Goliath. Not the David. That is entirely clear to me. But let\u2019s look at it at the strategic level: you and I and a large part of the listeners are clear that this will not end up in demonstrations. It is clear to us that Hamas can\u2019t continue to tolerate the fact that its rockets are not managing to hurt us, its tunnels are eroding \u2026\nNesiel: Yes.\nFogel: And it doesn\u2019t have too many suicide bombers who continue to believe the fairytale about the virgins waiting up there. It will drag us into a war. I do not want to be on the side that gets dragged. I want to be on the side that initiates things. I do not want to wait for the moment where it finds a weak spot and attacks me there. If tomorrow morning it gets into a military base or a kibbutz and kills people there and takes prisoners of war or hostages, call it as you like, we\u2019re in a whole new script. I want the leaders of Hamas to wake up tomorrow morning and for the last time in their life see the smiling faces of the IDF. That\u2019s what I want to have happen. But we are dragged along. So we\u2019re putting snipers up because we want to preserve the values we were educated by. We can\u2019t always take a single picture and put it before the whole world. We have soldiers there, our children, who were sent out and receive very accurate instructions about whom to shoot to protect us. Let\u2019s back them up.\nNesiel: Brigadier-General (Res.) Zvika Fogel, formerly Head of the Southern Command Staff, thank you for your words.\nFogel: May you only hear good news. Thank you.\nThere is no room to doubt the evil nature of the expansionist apartheid state that Israel has now become. Nor the moral vacuity of its apologists in the western media.\nTranslation by Dena Shunra.\nI heard the Israeli Ambassador interviewed on LBC this morning regarding yesterdays massacre of 52 peaceful Palestinian protesters in Gaza.\nhttps://www.lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/nick-ferrari/israeli-ambassador -why-we-fired-at-palestinians/\n[HumanRights] Why are you in the US?\nGeneral information about this mailing list is at:\nMazin Qumsiyeh mazin at www.qumsiyeh.org\nPrevious message: [HumanRights] Jordanian protests , Razan,\tundeclared Nuclear weapons and more\nOfficer doing the extra special security inspection upon my arrival in\nWashington DC: so what is the purpose of your trip to the US?\nMe: Doing lectures but the reason you are troubling me as a US citizen is\nthat you are obeying orders that come down to you from Tel Aviv\nOfficer (puzzled): What are you talking about\nMe: I have gone through this many times and wrote to homeland security and\nwill likely sue them for continued harassment on behest of Israel. Here is\nthe letter I received from them with a redress number. Basically,\nWashington is being forced by a Zionist lobby to do things on behest of\nIsrael and that is not good for the US or its taxpayers like you and I\nOfficer: So what do you lecture about?\nMe: various topics from environmental conservation to environmental justice\nto human rights and how the colonial apartheid state of Israel uses our US\ntax money to ethically cleanse fellow Palestinians\u2026..you can check my\nwebsite for details. By the way why do you have Fox news on TV monitors at\nthe airport (do you know it is Zionist to the core and thus\nanti-American)?.....\nAnd so this conversation went on for almost 40 minutes as two officers\nruffled through all my belongings and even took personal some papers to\ncopy. I was tired after a hard 40 hours on the road and in airplanes with\nextra time for extra inspection in Frankfort before boarding flight to DC.\nWe Palestinians have to go through Jordan as the Zionist regime prevents us\nfrom using our own Airport (Lod airport was built by Palestinians but then\nstolen like most of the country and became an airport for Israel). But\nsecond is my being subjected to extra special \u201csecurity\u201d checks both in\nairport in Frankfurt (almost causing me to miss the flight) and upon\narrival in Washington DC. As usual I take it as an opportunity to educate\nfellow human beings on how they ended up doing the bid of the Israeli\ngovernment to harass people like me. We talk about the lobbies, about the\nattack on the USS Liberty, and about our taxes being used to support\ngenocide and ethnic cleansing.\nBut anyway, such harassment is a price one pays for activism and if one\nwants to serve fellow human beings. I am now at the National Geographic\nSociety headquarters. Meeting over 150 fellow explorers. Talking nature\n(and politics).

Ali is on the grill!\u201d, they chanted, in reference to the 18-month old baby Ali Dawbsheh, who was burnt alive by Jewish terrorists in the West Bank town of Duma in 2015. Ali\u2019s mother Riham and father Saad died of their wounds a few weeks later. Of the family of four, only 5-year-old Ahmad survived the arson with severe burns.\nThe terror-supporters were actually taunting Ali\u2019s grandfather, Hussein Dawabshe, who was attending a preliminary hearing at which the court decided to indict one adult suspect who confessed to the murders, as well as a minor who was an accomplice. Hussein was accompanied by Palestinian-Israeli lawmakers Ayman Odeh and Ahmed Tibi. Tibi posted the video of the chanting, with policemen standing by doing nothing, and wrote:\n\u201cWhere\u2019s Ali? There\u2019s no Ali. Ali is burned. On the fire. Ali is on the grill\u201d \u2013 all this was thrown at our face \u2013 including at the grandfather Dawbsheh concerning his 18-month-old grandson by the riff raff of \u2018price tag\u2019. In front of us stood policemen and officers and did nothing.

By requiring community colleges to designate a Dream Resource Liaison, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.\nAs I stated in the veto of AB 2009 of 2016, all of our higher education institutions ought to be well-versed in the rights and opportunities available to undocumented students. I further called on our system higher education leaders to ensure that relevant campus personnel can ably fulfill these duties.\nUC and CSU have complied by either creating designated physical spaces on campus called Dream Resource Centers, or provided such information through existing student support programs. This bill is not necessary.\nRE: \u200b AB 2477 (Rubio) Student support services: Dream Resource Liaisons\nThe American Academy of Pediatrics, California (AAP-CA), representing over 5,000 California pediatricians, respectfully requests your signature on AB 2477 (Rubio), which would require California public high schools as well as California State Universities (CSUs) and California Community Colleges (CCCs) to have a designated \u201cDreamer Resource Liaison\u201d staffer on campus to provide undocumented and California Dream Act (SB 540) students with the support and resources needed to navigate the education system.\nUndocumented students face unique barriers in education, including uncertainty regarding policies that affect them at both the state and federal levels. It is important that California public colleges and universities ensure that these students are provided with available resources to be successful in their education.\nA recent study indicates that many of these students have concerns and frustrations regarding the lack of knowledge their college faculty, staff, and administrators have about relevant policies and services. Further, many report having encountered unfair treatment due to their legal status from fellow students, financial aid officials, and administrators. For the majority of these students, a positive campus climate towards undocumented students plays a crucial role in their educational success (The UndocuScholars Project).\nAB 2477 (Rubio) would create a Dreamer Resource Liaison staffer on post-secondary institution campuses in California in order to establish a positive campus climate for DACA and SB 540 students to support their success.\nPediatrician members of AAP California Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 across the state respectfully urge your signature on AB 2477 (Rubio).

In effect since November 1, the contract won after a two-year international competition amounted to 3 billion euros. The joint application of the companies of the RATP and SNCF groups benefited from very strong support from the French public authorities, who in particular emphasized the operational excellence and experience of the two mass transit operators.\nThis project, one of the largest public transport projects in the world, is part of Qatar\u2019s ambition to become a reference model for smart cities (smart or connected cities) in the making. The Doha automated metro is a showcase for all the latest know-how in urban mobility.\n\u201cTogether, RATP and SNCF mobilized the best of their technical and human expertise to meet this challenge.

        "title": "AdamJT13: A review of the 2009 NFL draft trades",
        "raw_content": "A review of the 2009 NFL draft trades\nThree weeks ago, I posted a list of almost every trade from 1992 to 2008 that involved NFL draft picks but not active players. Using that list and a mathematical formula, a fan who posts as Mr. Bighead on the KFFL message boards created a draft pick value chart that indicates the historical value of each draft pick. The value of the No. 1 pick was fixed at 3,000 points, the same value it has in the commonly used value chart. Not surprisingly, though, the chart based on actual trades from 1992 to 2008 is much different from the commonly used chart. In general, higher picks are worth more in the historical chart than in the commonly used chart, and the higher the pick, the greater the difference between the charts.\nI tested the historical value chart against certain benchmark trades in the list of trades that I posted, and I found that the chart is quite accurate, at least through five rounds or so. Late in the draft, teams are less likely to have picks that will balance out a trade, so they generally just make two-for-one trades out of the picks they have left and don't worry as much about point values.\nIn this post, I'll take a look at the trades made during the 2009 NFL draft and see whether teams that traded down got more value or less value than expected, based on trades made from 1992 to 2008.\nHere are all of this year's trades that involved only draft picks --\n17 = 19, 191\n26, 162 = 41, 73, 83\n37 = next 1st\n40 = 47, 124, 199\n43, 111 = next 1st\n64, 132 = 79, 84\n73 = 232, next 2nd\n89 = next 2nd\n91 = 137, 213, next 3rd\n117 = 120, 229\n123, 198 = 137, 141\n164 = 222, next 5th\n222 = next 6th\nNow let's take a look at each trade and the historical values of the picks involved --\nThe historical value of the 17th pick is 1,419 points. The 19th is worth 1,319, and the 191st is worth 16, for a total of 1,335. Cleveland took 84 points less than the expected value to trade down with Tampa Bay (roughly the value of the 118th or 119th pick).\nAgain, Cleveland took less than the expected value to trade down, this time with Philadelphia. The 19th pick has a historical value of 1,319 points, the 21st pick is worth 1,229, and the 19th is worth 15, for a total of 1,244 points. Based on those values, Cleveland got 75 fewer points than expected.\nThis time, it was New England that took less value than expected when it traded down to Baltimore's spot. The 23rd pick's historical value is 1,147 points, compared to a combined 1,068 points for the picks it received (1,037 for the 26th and 31 for the 162nd).\nNew England traded down again, this time getting higher-than-expected value from Green Bay. For two picks with a combined value of 1,068 points, New England got three picks with a combined value of 1,111 points (646, 263 and 202, respectively).\nOakland traded down with New England, getting a little less value than expected (665 points, compared to 540, 74 and 14 for a total of 628).\nThis was another trade down for less than expected, with Chicago sending one pick with a historical value of 510 points to Seattle for two picks worth 416 (300 and 116, respectively).\nIn 2001, Buffalo had the 51st pick and traded down with Denver, dropping seven spots to No. 58 and adding the 110th pick. This year, Dallas had the same original pick (No. 51) but had to drop 24 spots to get the same additional pick (No. 110). Historically, this was 481 points for 352 points (249 plus 103).\nMiami traded down with Indianapolis and got less-than-expected value, but not by much. The 56th pick has a historical value of 418 points, compared to 392 for the 61st (363) and 165th (29).\nPittsburgh got slightly better than the expected value for trading down with Denver. Pittsburgh gave up a combined 396 points (335 plus 61) and received 421 (224 plus 197).\nDetroit traded the first pick of the draft's second day to the New York Jets for higher-than-expected value. The 65th pick has a historical value of 326 points, compared to a combined 341 for the three picks the Jets sent to Detroit (243, 91 and 7, respectively).\nThe trade was about as equal as can be, considering that teams usually don't have two picks that add up to the precise value of the one pick for which they want to trade. In this case, Philadelphia traded No. 85, which is valued at 192 points, to the New York Giants for Nos. 91 (165) and 164 (30), which are worth a combined 195 points.\nThis was another relatively equal trade, with Dallas trading 87 points to Tampa Bay for 88 points (81 plus 7).\nBaltimore traded down with New England, getting 15 points more than expected. The 123rd pick is worth 75 and the 198th is worth 14 (89 total), compared to 54 points and 50 points (104 total) for the picks Baltimore received.\nBaltimore traded down again, this time getting relatively equal value from Denver. The 141st pick is worth 50 points, compared to a combined 46 points for the 156th (35) and 210th (11) picks.\nIn another trade for almost equal values, Washington sent 40 points to Minnesota for a combined 43 points (34 plus 9).\nBased on trades from 1992 to 2008, a first-round pick in the next draft is worth 635 points, on average (equal to the value of the 41st or 42nd pick in the current draft). Seattle gave Denver a pick (No. 37) worth 729 points, and San Francisco gave Carolina two picks worth a combined 709 (608 plus 101). Both times, this year's picks yielded less value than expected.\nOn average, a second-round pick in the next draft is worth 223 points (approximately the 79th pick). New England made both of these trades, getting less than expected from Jacksonville in the first trade (263 points for 223 plus 7) but more than expected from Tennessee in the second trade (178 for 223).\nA third-round pick in the next draft has an average value of 91 points, which is equal to the 115th pick. Philadelphia traded down with Seattle, giving up 165 points and getting back 155 (54 plus 10 plus 91) for a relatively equal trade.\nBoth of these were relatively equal trades. A fifth-round pick in the next draft is worth an average of 19 points, which is the value of picks No. 183-185. Philadelphia had the 164th pick (30 points) and traded down with New Orleans, getting 27 points in return (8 plus 19). Detroit traded down from No. 174 (24 points), getting 25 points (6 plus 19) back from Denver.\nHistorically, a sixth-round pick in the next draft has had an average value of eight points, which is the value of picks Nos. 222-227. Philadelphia traded No. 222 to Indianapolis in a trade for equal values. Carolina got a little more than expected by trading No. 202 to Oakland, giving up a pick worth 13 points and getting 18 points in return (10 plus eight).\nThis was the first known draft-day trade since at least 1992 that involved a seventh-round pick in the following draft and did not involve an active player. Miami sent Kansas City the fifth-to-last pick that could be traded (compensatory picks can't be traded) in exchange for a seventh-round pick next year. Unless Kansas City surprises almost everyone, Miami at least will get a higher seventh-round pick next year than it gave up this year.\n2009 draft trends\nHere's a look at all 25 trades, with the historical point values traded by each team. The points traded by the team trading down are on the left side, the points dealt by the team trading up are on the right. A > symbol indicates that the team trading down lost value, a < symbol indicates that the team trading down gained value, a ~ symbol indicates that the trade was relatively equal, and a = symbol indicates a trade that was exactly equal.\n1,068 < 1,111\n418 > 392 (Trade down from pick No. 56)\n396 < 421 (Trade down from pick No. 64)\n165 ~ 155 (Trade down from pick No. 91)\n6 > (next 7th)\nFrom this chart, it's apparent that teams didn't value picks in the first two rounds nearly as much as usual. Nine of the first 10 trades down went for less than the historical value of the pick(s) involved. Through 10 trades, the average value lost was 7.7 percent. Starting with the last pick of the second round, picks started trading for higher or equal value than on average from 1992 to 2008. Of the final 15 trades, the team trading down got higher-than-normal value in return five times and equal or relatively equal value eight times. Only twice did a trade down yield less than would be expected. The average value gained in the final 15 trades, starting with the last pick of the second round, was 5.9 percent. These numbers confirm the reports that many teams believed that the 2009 draft was weak at the top but deep in talent.\nPosted by AdamJT13 at 10:25 AM\nLabels: Dallas Cowboys, NFL, NFL draft, NFL draft picks, NFL draft trades\nMatthew Stafford's contract",

        "raw_content": "Faithfull, William Pitt (1806\u20131896)\nby Dianne Patenall\nWilliam Pitt Faithfull (1806-1896), by Myra Felton, 1867\nWilliam Pitt Faithfull (1806-1896), pastoralist, was born on 11 October 1806 at Richmond, New South Wales, the eldest son of William Faithful and his wife Susannah, n\u00e9e Pitt. He left school at 15 and entered the office of his uncle, Robert Jenkins, a Sydney merchant. After his uncle died he worked for five years as an overseer on the property of his aunt, Mrs Jemima Jenkins. Faithfull did not take up his option for a grant of 320 acres (130 ha) and in 1827 applied for land with acreage more appropriate to his means. The land board assessed his capital at \u00a32232 and in October he was granted 1280 acres (518 ha) on the Goulburn plains. Originally Cooranganennoe, the property became known as Springfield. Faithfull consolidated his assets and in 1835-37 acquired land on the Mulwaree Chain of Ponds. In 1838 with his brother George he overlanded sheep and cattle to Port Phillip. Although attacked by Aboriginals, George founded Wangaratta station on the Ovens River, a district where he bred and grazed sheep with his brother in 1846-48.\nFaithfull had founded the Springfield stud in 1838 with ten rams from Sir William Macarthur's Camden Park flock. One of the earliest to recognize the importance of selective breeding, he improved his flock by buying ten rams a year from such noted studs as those of George Cox of Burrundulla, N. P. Bayley of Havilah and Edward Cox of Rawden. By 1854 Faithfull held Brewarrina, 32,000 acres (12,950 ha) in the Murrumbidgee district. In 1871 his son Augustus Lucian took over the management of the stud and concentrated on breeding a pure flock of high class, stronger, heavier-woolled merinos mostly from Tasmanian rams.\nW. P. Faithfull became a justice of the peace in 1836 and returning officer for Argyle and warden of the Goulburn District Council in 1843. In 1846-48 he was an elected member of the Legislative Council for Argyle and after responsible government served in the Legislative Council from 13 May 1856 until May 1861 when he joined Sir William Burton in resigning in protest against an attempt by the governor to swamp the council in order to pass the land bill.\nOn 20 January 1844 in Sydney Faithfull married Mary, daughter of Thomas Deane of Devonshire. Springfield House was built in the early 1840s, and by 1858 its garden was well known for its 'English flowers of every shade in perfection'. His wife got roots and seeds from England every year. The stone woolshed, built in the late 1840s, was one of the earliest in the colony. Faithfull died at Springfield on 24 April 1896 and was buried there by the Anglican bishop of Goulburn. He was survived by five sons and three daughters. He left an estate worth \u00a3335,253 with Springfield, grown to over 20,000 acres (8094 ha), Brewarrina, and land in Melbourne, Wangaratta, Mittagong and Sydney. The Springfield stud was left to his youngest son, Lucian, in whose hands it remained until he died in 1942, when it went to Lucian's daughter, Mrs Maple Brown. It is claimed to be the oldest registered merino flock in Australia in the possession of one family.\nC.

        "raw_content": "That's what it's felt like these past three weeks. At the end of June I headed to a conference in Washington, DC. It's been a while since I've been there and I enjoyed being back. Good roommate for the conference, which is always a plus and I got to visit family and friends as well, a huge added bonus. The conference was so-so, which was disappointing, however, with all the walking I did, I didn't have a lot of guilt about not working out. I walked A LOT. And, I did stairs. Steep escalators freak me out, so at the conference center, I used the stairs instead of the escalators. Since the exhibitors were on the lower level, there were a couple of days I did this more than once. Actually, I was pretty proud of myself. They didn't kill me, so maybe I'm not as out of shape as I thought I was.\nGot back the Thursday before Fourth of July. I worked that Friday, then took the following Monday and Tuesday off. All told, I was probably in the office one day in a two week period. I'm not feeling guilty. The conference might have started on a Friday, but it went through the weekend to Tuesday. And, no comp time for the weekend conference time. Which is standard and not something I choose to dwell on. It just is. I'm terribly grateful that I get professional time to attend; I have colleagues who aren't supported in attending this conference, so they don't go or they use vacation.\nMy days off were spent doing a lot of little things. The Monday basically was set aside for all the repair folks to come, starting at 8:00 am. Who does that to themselves on a day off? But, I was desperate to have an A/C unit that didn't sound like it was preparing to take flight or was going to blow up. I now have that. I'm one happy camper. The mechanic showed up bright and early and didn't have to cut the sheet rock. This one actually felt the wall and could feel it hitting the wall. So, outside he went. He gave the pipe a really good yank to pull whatever was vibrating away from the frame and then moved the A/C unit itself a bit more from the house. Ahhh... it now makes the noise it's supposed to make.\nThe A/C guy was followed by the guy to repair the crack in the sheet rock in my bedroom ceiling. Alas, his English skills left a lot to be desired (read - he didn't have any) and I sent him away the first time because all he could say was \"drywall\" and for the life of me I was so focused on the A/C repair and the door ding that I forgot about the crack in the ceiling. Fortunately, the builder didn't. He was on his way over to mark the areas (he found more, which I'm not sure is a good thing or a bad thing) and tell the guy what to do. So, that guy was here about 2 hours doing that. The door ding repair guy arrived about 1:00. Thankfully, he spoke English (as did the A/C guy). Then, the painters showed up about 3:30. Well, the texture has to dry for about 12-24 hours. So, I asked if they couldn't come back the next day after 3:00, as I had to take kitty cat to the vet in the morning. They said yes. Of course, their English skills were lacking as well. Sigh.\nSo, kitty cat got a new scratching post, one of the cardboard ones, which she adored. Had catnip in it and she was all over it. Sounds cute. I got it for her on Friday. She liked it, it's much cheaper than her traditional scratching post (we've now gone through three), so I was happy. I thought it was cute that she rubbed her head and whole body on it and she used it to scratch. This is good, right? Umm... not really. By, Monday night her left eye was looking red and the skin above it was a little raw. By Tuesday morning, she just looked sad.. red eyes, red ears. I took my time getting ready to go as the appointment was at 11:00. No rush. The minute she saw the carrier, she was under bed. It's like 10:50. The vet isn't far, but if you've ever tried to coax a cat out from under a bed you'll know my dilemma. It just isn't done. In addition to said irritation, she was also in desperate need of a pedicure (thanks to a tendonectomy her front claws have issues and I can't always trim them). She's only beaten me once and I couldn't have it this time. So, with great guilt, I resorted to the fly swatter to get her out. She hates it. I did not hit her... just swooshed it a bit near her. She came out and then tried to hide in her favorite dining room chair. I could get her out from there. Yes, she screamed at me the whole drive to the vets. Naturally, as I was leaving for the vet, the painters showed up. I told them I couldn't stay. They said 12:00. I said how about 1:00. They said okay. I'm still waiting. Maybe I should try to improve my Spanish since apparently contractors don't see a need for their employees to communicate with the people they serve.\nI did not like the first vet I took her too. I loved this vet. They aren't trying to sell all kinds of products or services. They trimmed her nails and then the vet gave her a good once over. She also looked at the not really healing bald spot on her tummy (yes, the same one from February) and it had little red dots. So, something was definitely bothering kitty cat. This vet did what I think the first one should have done. Gave her a shot of low dose steroids. I swear, by that night she was looking better. I did take up the new scratching post. I'm going to give it a couple of more days for her to recover, then I'm going to dump the majority of the catnip out and see what happens. At first I thought either the cardboard or catnip was causing the irritation, but now I'm wondering if something wasn't already causing a problem and I provided a really good all round scratcher with the new scratching post. At any rate, not only does she look better, but I do believe she's perkier. I thought after the fly swatter incident and the trip the vet, she'd be mad at me for the rest of the day. Bless her little heart, she wasn't.\nI'd hoped to do some flowers for the yard and in containers while I was off, but while I was enjoying beautiful weather in DC, it continued to rain here, straight through the Fourth. So, I did stuff in the house. Now it's the middle of the summer and I'm reevaluating what kind of planting I'm going to do. But, I still got a little rest and some things taken care of on my days off. Now, I just have to get the painters back.\nLabels: cat, home repair, house, Rave, travel\nGood lord woman! Take a break & relax a bit. Sorry the conference was disappointing.",

He ran Aid Pest Control out of his spare bedroom until Eric \u201cBug Junior\u201d finished his finance degree from OSU. At that point they set up an office in Eric\u2019s basement until the growth of both the business and their families forced them to rent space on Main Street in North Canton.\nAs the company continued to grow, mainly due to the one factor that was always emphasized \u2013 Service, a building was purchased at 1321 S. Main Street in North Canton. Steve, pulling from his marketing degree, emphasized that the high visibility and signage would be a big plus. Eric, recalling the basic principle of finance, thought it would not only help the company service the clients but would also be a great asset that would grow in value over time.\nSteve and Eric, although proud of their business and building are more proud of their employees. In addition to the two owners there are full-time and part time licensed and insured technicians. They have been with us for years. As our clients will tell you, they are not only excellent pest control operators but very courteous, likable guys. The part time office staff not only feel like family, they are family.

        "raw_content": "U.S. Writes Its Worries About Buying IT Gear From China Into Law\nThe U.S. government officially remains concerned about the possibility of cyber attacks from China. And it has quietly imposed new restrictions on the information technology gear that certain branches of the government buy.\nAccording to a pretty detailed report from Reuters, a provision of the government\u2019s latest spending law requires three federal agencies \u2014 NASA and the departments of Justice and Commerce \u2014 to buy gear only after performing a cyber-security risk assessment carried out in consultation with law-enforcement agencies. Part of the assessment includes consideration of the fact that the equipment or its components may have been manufactured in China.\nIt\u2019s the latest expression of official hand-wringing about China, and the fact that that country is proving not only to be a permanent and overpowering fixture in the world of tech manufacturing is complicated by the fact that it is also proving to be an adept and aggressive player in the ongoing digital cold war between the countries. It\u2019s also a shot across the bow of China\u2019s large tech equipment providers, like Lenovo and Huawei.\nLast month, a U.S.-based research firm claimed to have traced numerous cyber attacks to a specific unit of China\u2019s People\u2019s Liberation Army, one operating within a particular building in Shanghai.\nBefore that, suspicions about China and its intentions, capabilities and actions in the cyber arena led to a White House-ordered review of claims of spying by the Chinese telecom firm Huawei. This followed a report by the House Intelligence Committee saying that Huawei and another Chinese telecom-equipment concern, ZTE, pose sufficient security risks that government agencies should avoid buying their equipment. This amendment, inserted into a continuing resolution intended to keep the government running through the end of September, essentially puts those worries into force with regard to those three agencies.\nBut, as I argued at the time, at least some of the federal worry has as much to do with what China might do as it does with what the U.S. is known to have already done. The joint U.S.-Israeli cyber campaigns against Iran using malware weapons like Stuxnet, Gauss and Flame say a great deal about the potential real-world damage that a cyber weapon might do. Stuxnet, you\u2019ll recall, is said to have caused some of Iran\u2019s nuclear centrifuges to spin out of control and explode in an attempt to set back that country\u2019s nuclear research efforts.\nHuawei in particular has had a difficult time proving that its links to China\u2019s military establishment are sufficiently severed, and that in the event of open conflict its gear wouldn\u2019t be turned into a surveillance and espionage tool against the U.S. Though, as Reuters notes in its story, Huawei doesn\u2019t believe the bill applies to it. We\u2019ll see.\nTagged with: China, computers, cyberwar, espionage, hacking, Huawei Technologies, Lenovo, NASA, networking, spying, U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. government",

        "raw_content": "Alpha Mail: is it already over?\nA reader who understandably wishes to remain anonymous requests advice:\nI am hoping you can give me some advice or point me in the right direction. My wife and I are having trouble and she is about to move out. There is no other man or anything like that. The marriage just deteriorated for both of us.\nI just read your post, \"Maxim 2: make her jealous\" and it just slapped me hard in the face that in the 3 years of marriage I forgot almost every damn thing that I learned about game that I used to win her in the first place. I was an alpha dog fucking her and ever other girl I could find. Now, I am some boring predictable husband that simply provides her a safe comfortable live. Worse, I thought it was enough. Shame on me.\nI want to save the marriage if I can because I certainly like her well enough and she is gorgeous but mostly because of the financial ruin it will wreck on me. She doesn't work and I will pay a fortune for her and our child if she leaves, which will seriously cramp my style when finding another girl. If I do the things she needs I think we would both be happy.\nShe hasn't left yet and it is like she is waiting for me to react a certain way. I think my game hasn't been terrible in the last few days in trying to keep her to stay - but I don't think it has been great either. I didn't ask her to stay or do anything pathetic. Instead, I bought lots of very nice clothes to up my wardrobe, started making myself scarce, and showing no signs that it bothered me that she is leaving. I told her that I wanted the same thing, that I already felt free and the idea of hunting again made me feel alive. I also told her that I am going to start dating a girl from work (which is true if I want to). But, I really want to say, \"I remember what I need to do and I am going to take you upstairs and show you right now\".\nI think I have the inner game mostly right but I am not sure of the best immediate tactical steps I need to do to get her to stay so I can do for her what she needs. It may be too late and if that is the case then so be it. But I am going to try. I am concerned that any affection will simply signal AFC and any indifference will simply tell her that it is over and she should go. I am thinking that maybe it is best to let her go and then be the alpha dog to get her back. Not sure - as I have no experience here. If I could, I would be the first to leave but I can't because I own the house and there are kids involved.\nI would appreciate any advice you can give.\nFirst, let me point out that Maxim 2 is Roissy's advice, not mine. Second, while I'm loathe to intrude upon what is more properly Athol's territory, I would say that before this man attempts anything, he must first ascertain if his wife is already engaging in an affair. It sounds to me as if that is at least a possibility, even if she denies that is the case.\nThird, I think he has to stop dancing around the issues. If he really wants to say something, he should say it. How can he worry about showing affection being too AFC when he's afraid to say what he really thinks, and tell her what he really wants? There can be a fine line between Indifference Game and actively driving a woman away.\nHe's obviously running the MAP, which is necessary, but in this case apparently insufficient. If she's really so unconcerned that she doesn't care if he's dating other women or not, it's already over and his attempts to win her back are likely to be futile.\nIf she's talking about moving out rather than asking him to leave, I'd put money on there being another man.\n-- Petruchio\nIf she moves out, where is she moving, and who's paying for it? Also, is she planning on taking the kid?\nIf she's initiating this, absolutely insist the kids are your priority - cause she's forgotten they are hers. Do not let her do anything to get the upper hand on you when it comes to them. Fight for them tooth and nail. You say you know what she wants? What is it? If it's just that you've become \"boring,\" that can change but there is a certain amount of tedium that comes with marriage and child-rearing. There are ways to address that without breaking up your children's home. Again, insist they are the priority and if you haven't been behaving as if they are, start. If there is no adultery (absolutely do not commit it and push to see if she's engaged in any, including emotional/fantasy, online), neither of you should be wimpy babies and bale. Marriage isn't about only doing what you feel like doing (these words are for her too). There comes a time when you \"feel\" good because you're doing the right things.\nIf there are serious problems - substance abuse/physical abuse monetary irresponsibility - open your eyes and do due diligence to fix these issues.\nHang in there. My husband and I have persevered through 23 years of difficult times. I can say I respect and love him more for sticking it out, for not giving up and moving on. That you are the primary provider is important. Assert that without guilting her or making her feel less than. In the most trying of times, I objectified my husband and realized he'd be snagged up in a second if free and that would take away from our child. Men who are good earnings are good catches. You already know it. I wouldn't flaunt it, but keep asserting that the hard work you are doing is for this family, this wife, these kids and that nobody will do for them as you do. Be a leader.\nWithout knowing her complaints, it's hard to provide more insight.\nPSA on behalf of everyone who proofreads Vox's books:\nLoathe is the verb, loath is the adjective. Just like breathe is the verb, and breath is... Ok, the analogy breaks down there, but a noun is still closer to an adjective than a verb.\nI always say at the first hint the man has to find the most agressive evil anti-woman divorce lawyer NOW! and do exactly what the lawyer recommends even if you want to reconcile. Otherwise you might come home to an empty house with the divorce papers on the kitchen table - if that is going to happen it should be your move not hers.\nYou will be an alpha if you make it clear that if she leaves, she will just have her clothes and a few kitchen appliances and furniture to take with her and you will keep the house, kids, and the cash. That it will be ugly and that the battle will make her lose in any case, but you would prefer her to stay and go from there.\nRight now it doesn't seem that she cares to stay, so you appearing not to care may be sending a mixed message.\nI'd talk to a lawyer and let her leave, even push it. There is another man, probably. That's why she wants freedom fromthe kids too. If she just wanted away from him, she'd want the house and kids for financial reasons.\nWorst thing he can do is try to keep her. She'll respect him less. Get with a lawyer and use her leaving to help keep the house and kids.\nShe doesn't need to move out to end her marriage. She can make him leave, and be the proud owner of a house he is still paying for. She only needs to move out to have sex with another man without the kids getting in the way.\nShe's got another man. Unless there is a lot of abuse or anger he's leaving out of the story, I doubt she's just wandering off on her own. I've never seen a woman just up and leave a merely boring relationship without either another man or another woman (and a shiny new victim status!) to go with it.\nTalk to the lawyer ASAP. Talk to all the other lawyers in town who are good as well. Make them take some money from you. Establish a lawyer/client relationship with them an give them the juicy details so they cannot take your wife as a client. She will be forced to use a loser attorney. Also, if she is talking divorce and one of the law firms says it \"has a conflict\" it likely means she is already talking to them about divorce and is a couple steps ahead of you. This may be your first heads up.\nGenerally speaking, you ned to financially prepare a year in advance before the marriage has \"broken down\". Once it has broken down, any funds transfers or other money diddling can be reversed (or charged to you for your share). Therefore hide the money as soon as possible. Even if you get back together you need to hide your money since she may pull this crap again in a year or so.\nDon't buy the \"i don't have a boyfriend on the side\" stuff. She may well have one that you don't know about. Find out. If she loses her replacement gravy train she may stop pressing for a divorce. If HE has a wife, you may want to tell him you will tell his wife and kid and employer, and put an ad in the newspaper unless he gets lost.\nYour state may have an action for \"alienation of affection\" in which you sue him for $$$ beause he destroyed your marriage by shtuping your wife. Your lawyer will know more.\nRight now you are in damage control mode. You are beyond restoring the relationship. Get things back under your control and you can assert your alphahood without the everpresent fear of robbery and theft of your children.\nYou need a year of \"peaceful\" living under one roof to start shifting your cash around and hiding it from your wife. There are all kinds of scams you can run to get your finances under control and away from her. Remember, the more money/debt she runs up now, the higher the child support and alimony she can get.\ni know a guy who sold his house while the wifey and he were on vacation. Consider not paying the mortgage, hiding the dunning notices and letting the bank take it back. That is tactical nuke city, but it would prevent her from keeping you paying for a house you know you are going to lose.\nA doctor lady I know got some advice 3 years before she filed and was able to set up separate retirement accounts that would shield her retirement assets from her beta house hubby.\nDon't fsck around. You are way beyond Game and into Damage Control.\nOnce you have her under your thumb and she knows it she may rediscover your alpha attractiveness and your refusal to put up with her sh!t. that combined with the fact that she is a lazy leech may give her the tingles and things may work out with you on top and in clear and undeniable control.\nStrange that a man doesn't consider quitting his job before a divorce so that he enters negotiations equally poor. I guess it is because the courts will always hold the man responsible for earning an income while a woman's income is considered inconsequential.\n@Markku,\nI, too, am loath to correct Vox on his grammar.\nHis prescription seems okay, though. Following through with the M.A.P. is probably a good course.\nJust to be perfectly safe and not slander anybody, I should probably say \"I could be wrong\" before I say what I think. ;-)\nAlso, if you get a woman to marry you by acting like someone you're not, with strengths you don't really have, the mask is bound to slip off after marriage. Did he really think he was going to keep her?\nData is everything. What you don't know can cause you to make a fatal mistake. Do not stalk her. That is the best way to get a restraining order thrown at you. Retain a lawyer and get a recommendation for a private investigator. If nothing is found, never tell her what you've done. Otherwise use the information to marginalize her and get the kids.\nAlso, the comment about dating the woman at work didn't reflect confidence, indifference or aloofness. It screamed desperation.\nYou are regular loathario, Markku.\nYep. A lot of \"alpha dog\" fronting going on. The former situational alpha can't rest on his qualified laurels. It is silly to feign indifference about the wife, when it is clear that he wants to keep her.\nAlpha \"move\" is to simply tell her that he wants to keep her. Tell her that what she thinks she is running to is not likely to work out in the long run, and that she will have destroyed a healthy home for her children. If she goes, she needs to go away for good.\nHang onto those kids, get a good and aggressive lawyer, and hope she'll see the light. If she doesn't, too bad for her, but pretending like you don't care to have her around is a good way to inspire her to walk off with the rest of the property while the getting is good.\nI hope she comes back to him, and I'm still quite curious how a the marriage \"just deteriorated over time.\"\nHow much time? And, what, specifically deteriorated?\n1. It is very possible there is another man. A married woman with a child usually doesn't leave unless there is another man. You need to get to the bottom of that right away.\n2. What Big Bill said. Talk to a lawyer, start separating money out. This is damage control mode. If she's about to leave, Game probably won't make her stay.\n3. If she's determined to divorce, I'd undertake mutually assured destruction as a mindset. Do not agree to move out. If she wants the divorce, she can move out. Fight for as much child custody as you can get. Do not agree to her having primary residential custody. She might get that; but you did not agree to it. If you can't get primary residential, go for equally shared custody - one week with you, one with her. Make clear that divorce will be all out war that will deplete the marital assets. Do not agree to a settlement that requires you to make ongoing payments like mortgage or car payments, unless the house goes to you or the car you'll be paying on is yours. She will have to take over her car payments. If she wants the house, she will have to buy your half of the equity and take over the payments. Insist that she start working full time. Make sure she gets a taste of what life without you will be like. GIve her half the pile of bills, and make her pay them from her own funds. Default on them if necessary and ruin your joint credit rating. If she has credit cards in her name, give the bills to her and tell her to figure out how they will be paid. Make clear that the marital assets will be wasted and depleted fighting over custody, visitation, and property division.\nTell her you want to save the marriage but let her know that if she steps out from under your protection, she is no longer under it. If she leaves, go Galt.\nThe advice you received about lawyer-shopping is good. Get the top five in your area conflicted out, then engage the best. If you've got the resources, keep the top two engaged on the matter. There is a reason why every law firm in a large corporation's home town does work for the corporation.\nStats for kids of divorce are horrible. Save it if you can but work to keep the kids if at all possible. This is especially important for girls, since an ex-wife's future lovers are the most common source of sexual abuse. A girl in a home with a step dad or boyfriend is 40 times more likely to be abused than a girl in her own daddy's home.\nIt's worth remembering that a demonstration of \"what he needs to do\" will be worth very little if she isn't turned on by him any more.\neshamus said...\nRegarding your 3rd point:\na) consider the fact Wife has not contributed to the asset or wealth accretion in any way. Husband threatening to burn down the house he alone has built is scarcely coercive.\nb) Wife never cares if credit rating destroyed. She's not an earner, Husband is. Wife will glom onto an earner to improve status rather than relying on her own credit rating.\nc) All obligations are marital obligations. He has no standing to \"not agree\" to paying off loans, credit cards and other obligations. If a \"Findings of Fact\" divorce decree assigns certain debts to Wife, they still exist on Husband's credit report. Wife's default shows on Husband's credit report.\nI'd suggest the requestor:\n1) Stop trying to make her stay. Show her the door. Now. Keep the child(ren), stay in the house, change the locks and evict her. She returns, call the police. Your house, your kids.\n2) Hire an attorney. Forget the bozo Internet-expert advice to pay every decent attorney a dollar to spoil the pond for Wife's attorney selection.\n3) Commit yourself to the fact this will cost you approximately $30,000.\nHaving completed steps 1-3, you may now observe you are in the driver's seat, committed to your course of action, and prepared to absorb considerable discomfort to achieve your goal.\nWhat is she prepared to do?\nOne, recognizing your strengthened position, she'll try to seduce you. She'll promise to change her behavior.\nTwo, if the first step fails (or even concurrent with that step), she'll attempt vicious napalm fire on your position. She may accuse you of child abuse, hiding money, abusing her, drugs, neglect, etc. Weather that storm. She'll rail then subside, storm and retreat. If you hold fast, you'll spend about $30k, she'll disappear, drive her attorney(s) crazy, constantly postpone court hearings, and eventually give up. You'll have the house, both car payments (but one car), half your 401k, and full custody of your child(ren).\neShamus\nPeregrine John: It's worth remembering that a demonstration of \"what he needs to do\" will be worth very little if she isn't turned on by him any more.\nBull crap. This is NO excuse for leaving a marriage. Taking the upper hand - as per much of the advice given about finding out her other \"interest\" (i.e., is she cheating, intending to cheat) - and then letting her get a taste of life without you are good steps. Sex goes through seasons and can return to a dead marriage, better than ever/better than before. Like love, it's not just a feeling, it's a choice to invest in it. If you've been a slug per Athol's admonitions, do what needs to be done. A lag in sexual attraction/arousal is no excuse for leaving a marriage. NO ONE would stay married if validation for leaving was the flame went out. If you or your wife accept this, then you're both lazy. You can't change her, but you can implement Athol's suggestions. Again, insist that you care about the kids more than she as you're willing to do whatever to keep them in an intact home. Then fight for that.\nLong time ago, about the time I was realizing that there was a red pill, but didn't know it's name, Dr. Laura made the point that almost all women only leave one relationship when they have one to replace it.\nHer point was that by the time a guy has been told that his gf/wife is moving out, he's already been replaced.\nno woman leaves without one waiting in the wings.\nsince she hasn't left yet, maybe what she's waiting for is for the hubs to drag her to the bedroom by the hair and give her a good old fashioned bent over his knee spanking.\nyes, that would be my professional recommendation.\nMy advice? File a restraining order against her for spousal/child abuse,retain a lawyer, and get ready to go over the divorce court waterfall.\nIf you don't do it to her first, she will absolutely do it to you without the slightest bit of remorse.\nWay to apply a comment to the wrong words, Ioweenie! No. \"What I need to do\" in context and in the original article refers to taking her to bed for a good shagging. Unless the rest of things are moving in the right direction already, a \"just do her\" strategy, let alone Mina's notion, will not have the intended effect.\nI've seen it over and over, so there's little point trying to convince me of your theory over the evidence of my own lying eyes.\nIn any case, do try to avoid putting words in my mouth, especially ones that are obviously stupid.\nI'd bet on the \"other guy\" scenario and suggest he proceed with the lawyer, hired surveillance plan. The bridegroom established early on that the lady likes alpha dick and promptly forgot that there are lots of alphas out there, each one equipped with a dick.\nPeregrine John: In any case, do try to avoid putting words in my mouth, especially ones that are obviously stupid.\nNot sure what \"obviously stupid\" words I put in your mouth, but here's the point: if a woman isn't turned on by her husband anymore, their sex life and marriage doesn't have to be over. One good romp might not convince her to stay, but since the concerned husband thought taking his wife to the bedroom might be an effective means of reminding her of his value (and he seems to be wrestling with his own indifference), it doesn't seem like a bad move. As you suggest, maybe not the only move.\nNot sure what evidence you've gained by your own lying eyes that has convinced you \"my theory\" is wrong, my theory being, sex gone cold can grow hot again. My experience/evidence is that being \"turned on\" is not a prerequisite to regain a good sexual foundation of a marriage. The main thing that changed in my marriage for our sex life to improve was my attitude.\nReminds me of a joke. An older man and woman were driving down the road. They passed a young couple in a car, the young woman was sitting up close next to the young man who was driving. The older woman said to her husband, \"Oh look honey. Isn't that sweet. Remember when we used to be so young in love and I used to sit next to you?\" The man smiled, nodded, and said, \"I haven't moved.\"\nI neglected to bring up GF Dad's #1 rule regarding affairs: By the time you think your spouse is screwing around, they probably are.\nThis rule will probably not fit into many people's views on Philippians 4 or 1 Corinthians 13, but it does follow Jesus' admonition to be as wise as serpents and as meek as doves.\nThis is a great lesson in why one should fix that tiny hole in the radiator before you lose all the coolant and your engine overheats and seizes tighter than a feminist's sphincter.\nAnd remember, StopLeak doesn't fix the radiator. It just plugs the hole.\nIf plugging the hole stops the leak and prevents the engine from seizing up, well then get right on that plugging!\nSorry, Ioweenie, I'd been misquoted a record number of times yesterday and started off pissy. My apologies for a pointless flash of anger. It's clearly stupid to leave a marriage just because someone's libido is lackluster, is what I meant. On the other hand, insisting on sex with someone who's dry enough to hurt from it will never get an immediate good reaction, and can only be useful in the long haul if other remedies are also in play. In spite of endless medical and scientific (not to mention anecdotal) support for it, low libido people very often resist the simple remedy of having more sex to get to wanting more sex. Seen it personally, and have had tales of woe from both sexes regarding it.\nNot to say that a good rogering isn't a good reminder, but there'd best be more to the cure if a cure is to be effected.\nFWIW, I tell that joke fairly frequently. You would not believe the number of women who entirely miss the point. Or maybe you would believe, come to think of it.\nDesert Cat said... If plugging the hole stops the leak and prevents the engine from seizing up, well then get right on that plugging!\nI think you missed my point. If a woman is prone to wander, once you game her back, you probably still have a woman prone to wander. You have to evaluate whether it's worth being eternally vigilant and whether you can maintain game for the duration. Sometimes a new radiator is the easiest, long term solution.\n\" But, I really want to say, \"I remember what I need to do and I am going to take you upstairs and show you right now\".\"\nI'm late to the party. Hope I'm not to late.\nDude. DO THIS. If she wanted to leave she'd be gone already.\nThis part that I just quoted???\nGF Dad: Sometimes a new radiator is the easiest, long term solution.\nYes, but this is always best done on one's own schedule, and on one's own terms to the greatest extent possible. If plugging the hole gives one the respite necessary to plan and act in such a way as to reduce the divorce-raping, then get to plugging.\nPeregrine John.\nNo problem. I've had my quick reactions here before and I probably reacted too emotionally to your comment as well.\nI love that joke - today. Was told to me when I was in my teens by my first boyfriend. I got it but was still so full of pride I wouldn't dare even crack a smile. So, yeah, I believe that women may miss the point - and still others are loathe to acknowledge the point (as was I), so play dumb.\nCan't say often enough how thankful I am for second chances and do overs.\nAnonymous said, \" . If plugging the hole gives one the respite necessary to plan and act in such a way as to reduce the divorce-raping, then get to plugging.\"\nI'll go along with that. Use game as a strategic weapon before pulling out the nukes. Nice.\nI am the man who wrote the letter. One important factor I left out is that I met her when I worked in Russia. I dated her six months and then she came back with me. I don't think she is having an affair (I couldn't find evidence) and I don't think she is using me. She has a much different mentality. I was also the first to suggest she moves out because of her treatment of my girls from my first marriage. Then she ran with it.\nBut, doesn't really matter now. Shit has gone completely south. I have been falsely arrested, cant contact her or go to the house, and cant see my kid. Saturday morning we signed a lease for a new place for her. I was being a bit afc because it hurt really really bad - unbearably. I wasn't pathetic asking her to stay. But I wasn't so tough either. It was obvious that I was in a lot of pain.\nThen something weird happened. I was just watching TV and she was upstairs putting our daughter to bed. She then comes down and sits on the couch and starts a skype chat. I asked her to go in one of the many other rooms and she refused. She was trying to provoke. I muttered that she was a bitch (maybe one of 10 times I called her that in the 6 years I have known her) and then unplugged the internet and sat back down hoping she would now leave. She exploded like I have never seen and jumps on me to attack me. She is trying to punch me and rip my shirt off. I calmly just hold her wrists and she starts screaming that she is going to call the police. I said \"why? You are attacking\". She gets up and chucks a child toy and hits me in the face. I then jump up grab her arms and hold down to the couch. I said, \"I have never hit you. You don't hit me.\". I let her up, she calls the cops, and they arrest me. I said to the cops, \"She attacked!! why are you arresting me\".\nI don't think this was a custody type ploy as she was off the charts angry. I dont know what it was.\nSo, I have a criminal attorney and a family law attorney and it is a big fucking expensive mess. I have a court appearance next Thursday and I hope it is dropped and was just a \"cops arrested the guy cause they have to take someone\" kind of thing.\nThe worst part is that I truly treated her well. Maybe I lost the pua edge I very much needed but I was a good man - and not in some pathetic type of way. I never tried to buy her or anything like that. I don't know.\nSo, I am shacked up at a friend's house 1 hour away from my home. I am closing on the house I cant go to on friday.\nThe weird part is I am not mad at her. I think she is simply trying to survive in this world and there is no evil intent on her part. I don't think she is trying to take advantage of me. Heck, there is $50k in our checking account since this happened and she hasn't touch it. I could be wrong though on her using me.\nI must admit that I feel a devastating sense of loss at losing her. I know that I can find other girls easily enough. It doesn't seem to help at the moment. Our relationship started in a crazy little bar in Siberia Russia almost 6 years ago when I picked her up while her boyfriend went to the bathroom (ah, the days I felt like a true pua). The story is now dead and it is as painful as f.\nI don't have any options at the moment as everything rests on this court case. So, I cant even start planning a new future. However, I do like the one part of me that kicked in and instead of wallowing in pain I instinctively said to myself, \"make yourself a better man.\" I bought even more nice clothes, joined the gym, started playing tennis 3 nights a week, joined a co-ed lacrosse team, focused on my russian lessons. etc.\nThanks so much for the advice.\nOf course the cops arrested you. Standard procedure. Domestic Violence call... someone has to go... they always take the man.\nThey don't give a damn what actually happened.\nfucking cops.\nby the way... why did you leave the whole \"mistreating your kids\" part out the first time?\nthat greatly effects the advice we gave.\nI know I for one would've told you to kick her ass out right then and there and that would've saved you a ton of trouble.\nWhat was it that Groucho Marx said:, \"I don't want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member?\"\nIf this man did not protect his children from his wife, she will know he can't/won't protect her either. It's a sadistic shit test of sorts. I don't know there's much that can restore this marriage (since there's no mention of either of them being Christian).\n\"by the way... why did you leave the whole \"mistreating your kids\" part out the first time?\"\nIt was because I sent an unsolicited email for advice to Vox and thus didn't want to write a huge story. I didn't know at the time he would post it.\nThe mistreating is not like beating or anything. It is much more subtle. She did shove my daughter once though. 3 weeks ago, my wife, her daughter, our daughter, and me were going to Chicago for vacation. My other 2 daughters wanted to go and I told me wife, \"Awesome A and B want to come too!\" She said, \"no, they would ruin the trip for me\". I then found out she doesn't like them that much. She is also really harsh with our 2 year old and almost 100% of the time the 2 year old prefers to be held by me when we are both with her. She is never abusive but very harsh in dressing her, changing her, washing her, etc. There were times I heard the baby screaming (beyond normal) and went to see what was going on and she would be washing the baby and she couldn't see that she was terrorizing the child and that the crying had went from normal to truly frightened. She has a weird inability to feel compassion. In those cases I forced her to stop and I did protect the child. She went ballistic then and I said, \"So be it. You will stop\". Given her explosion on Saturday (which I had never fully witnessed before), I now how worries what will happen when that anger comes when she is around the baby.\nI did kick her out but then kind of relented. It has huge financial implications. She doesn't work and doesn't speak english well yet. We speak Russian at home. So, I thought kicking her out meant 100% support from me and a lot less time with our daughter. The loss of time with my daughter was one of the biggest things. When my first marriage blew up I didnt miss my wife. But, the loss of my children 50% of the time was devastating. It has been over 6 years and it still hurts when they are not with me.\nI stayed up most of the night and went over all the ways I messed up over the last 3 years of marriage and the list is long. I forgot all the rules. Two things really hit me the most. First, I forgot that all the shit I learned about game is 100% true and there are not women who are an exception. I fell into the trap that \"this relationship is different\". Devastating sin. Second, I became a \"kept man\". When I met her I was fucking lots of girls. When I first met her I would sometimes fuck a different girl in my apartment who would leave minutes before my wife came over (got caught once by her). Before she arrived in the U.S. (she had to wait awhile to follow me back due to legal shit) I was seeing girls from work and still practicing game. I remember I was talking to a female colleague and she said, \"Why is that girl eye raping you?\" I look over and there is this cute girl with a look of pure hunger staring at me. Well, no one is eye raping me now and I do not have a backup plan now that I don't have access to that sweet body of my wife.\nBut, maybe all this is good because it made me realize what I had become and what I can become again. It concerns me though that I am now 44 and my finances will be a huge mess for a long time to come. What the hell am I going to do, invite a girl over for ramen noodles?\nTo the girls, I worry about them terribly and I have been an awesome father to all of them. My relationship to my 14 and 16 year old is super tight. I will fight for full custody of the 2 yr old and take what I can get but there isn't much I can do at the moment beyond that. It will be in the court's hands and at the moment I need to wait.\n\"One important factor I left out is that I met her when I worked in Russia. I dated her six months and then she came back with me. I don't think she is having an affair (I couldn't find evidence) and I don't think she is using me.\"\nShe has already used you. Marrying you was her ticket out of Siberian Russia. The fact that she's ending it so soon is very suspicious.\nShe stayed long enough--5 1/2 years--to get re-settled and have a baby. A baby that could earn her financial support from you until the child is 18. Your only way out is to be awarded custody of this child. Considering that she was cruel to your other children and she attacked you without provocation, you might have a chance.\nMind you, I normally tell people to try and work it out rather than divorce. However, in this case, it sounds like she's already planning to end it and there might not be anything you can do to stop her. You may only be able to minimize the damage she causes. Furthermore, if there's child abuse involved you need to get the kids away from her until you decide she's safe to have around, if ever.\nWhat exactly did she do to the children from your first marriage? Can you prove it in court? Can you send her to jail for it or at least prove she's an unfit mother?\nThis could help you not only with your court case on Thursday, but also with obtaining custody of your daughter, if it comes to that. If you can, find an attorney who specializes in helping men who've been falsely accused of abuse. You need to build a case that this woman is unstable. She harmed your kids. Then she attacked you after you told her to move out for being a bad step-mom.\n\"I don't think this was a custody type ploy as she was off the charts angry. I dont know what it was.\"\nEither she's batshit crazy and throwing you a nuclear-class shit test, or this is a premeditated, cold-hearted custody ploy. Either way, you need to win this.\nOh yeah, and re-think the part about her not cheating. Now that she's moved out, you might re-open that investigation. If she wasn't cheating before, she might start now that she thinks she has you on the ropes. Out-of-control, batshit crazy people aren't known for being chaste. Neither are cold-hearted users.\n\"The weird part is I am not mad at her. I think she is simply trying to survive in this world and there is no evil intent on her part. I don't think she is trying to take advantage of me.\"\nThis is painful to read. It's like watching someone who's about to get flattened by a bus and there's nothing you can do to help.\nWake up. She could destroy you in divorce court. Don't make excuses for her. She doesn't deserve it. She hurt your children and attacked you. No excuses for that.\nWhatever happens, hang in there and keep fighting. I know of one case where it took 3 years for a man to get custody of the kids from his drug-addicted, abusive ex-wife. Good finally won in the end, but it was a struggle. A struggle he would have lost if he'd given up or backed down in any way.\n\"What the hell am I going to do, invite a girl over for ramen noodles?\"\nIf you end up single again, don't despair.\nIf you have tight enough game, women will be happy with ramen-- and maybe a bag of skittles.\nI retained a top criminal lawyer today and he called my wife. Cost $3000 for what is going to turn out to be 2 hours work. I could have used the money for a nice vacation with my 2 daughters. My lawyer said it was hard to fully understand her because her English is so bad but he said it sounds like she is not going to pursue anything and that she feels pretty terrible and wants contact with me. We have to wait until next Wednesday to clear it up, at which point I will see her for the first time after her attack and false charge. I am not sure how I will feel but I am not letting her off with any forgiveness to ease her guilt (I don't want to and even if I did I would look like the weakest guy who ever lived). She has lost my care and protection. Out of the sheer reality of the situation I will have to pay for her to move out plus expenses. Sucks, but that is the way it is.\n\"She has already used you. Marrying you was her ticket out of Siberian Russia. The fact that she's ending it so soon is very suspicious.\"\nI don't believe that is true. Before I met her she was with a very rich man and she simply took off and decided to live in poverty instead. I saw the emails of him begging for her to come back when I snooped once. She did still ask him for money though when she got desperate. The other factor is that she has spent about zero of my money. She has never been a user. That being said, with a Russian woman it is always going to be a cold calculation given their harsh lives. Love plays very little role when you are simply trying to live. You must know that going in, even if you are a Russian man living in Russia.\n\"Out-of-control, batshit crazy people aren't known for being chaste.\"\nBut they are known for insanely good sex, which is what I got and what I am going to miss. And it will drive me nuts knowing she will be giving it to someone else.\n\"The weird part is I am not mad at her. I think she is simply trying to survive in this world and there is no evil intent on her part. I don't think she is trying to take advantage of me.....This is painful to read. It's like watching someone who's about to get flattened by a bus and there's nothing you can do to help.\"\nI understand that. But I hate being cynical with anyone - men or women. I like to believe in the good in people and I know that means I get crushed now and then. So be it.\nIn which water finds its level.\n\"But they are known for insanely good sex, which is what I got and what I am going to miss. And it will drive me nuts knowing she will be giving it to someone else.\"\nAt least you have your priorities straight. (J/K)\nIf it makes you feel better, I know of one guy who I distanced myself from after he mentioned to me that he'd been married three times, divorced three times...and met all three wives at bars. He's forking over really good child support for a kid with the third turd. The other one is on his third marriage and at least got the pre-nup in this time. Got taken for $150k in the last divorce. Admits to wanting this current marriage to work, \"because the sex is so great\". Fair enough. Don't complain to me about her loser teenage boys and her inability to keep a good house and home then.\nIf nothing else, you did reap what you sowed. Pat yoruself on the back for that. You weren't the player you thought while she wasn't the angelic, loyal wife you thought.\nTie goes to...her.\nRussian-girl game! You've got to get all \"eastern promises\" on them....\n\"the stars are like a birthright to me...\"\nThis is an old thread but I will add an update for completeness and I will add an update in a couple of months.\nI saw her for the first time in 15 days. I had absolutely zero contact with her during that time and I used that time to my advantage to completely transform myself - I swear to god it was like one of those TV show transformations. I exercised and dieted like crazy. I don't know the exact amount I lost but it was a lot. I also had the resident fashion goddess at work take me shopping. My shitty baggy clothes were replaced by tight and trendy clothes, complete with bracelet and necklace. I looked 25 pounds lighter. I also replaced my shitty $1k car with an insanely hot 2008 BMW M3 with only 8,500 miles on it. All this improved my inner game as I felt more confident and had a bit of swagger in me when I met her that I am sure was picked up on by her.\nI practiced my game but I didn't need any of it when I saw her. Since the last time I saw her police were involved, I figured I would just build some comfort to start. Within 90 seconds she just blurts out of nowhere - \"I just realized how much I love you\". I took this for code of, \"I see the attractive man I met 6 years ago\". She kept shaking her head every few minutes and said, \"I can't believe how good you look\". She looked at me with real desire - like she wanted me to take her right there. I hadn't seen her look at me like that for years.\nShe still ended up moving out during the no contact period but it sounds like she really regrets it and she said she hasn't slept in days and she looked completely worn out. I don't think she was or is seeing anyone but I am a bit less sure of this than before because I notice lots of contact with a new phone number (which I couldnt trace to anyone) and I have no idea how she was able to move the big items like the couch and bed. She said that students from her english language classes helped but that seems odd - who asks someone from school to help move and who accepts?\nSo, I am about 100% sure she was not using me for money but less sure she is not having an affair. The odds are against it but who knows. Bottom line - if I am interested I am back in the game with my wife. I think I am interested but the violence and anger issues with her would have to be address and I am not sure how to go about that.\nThanks you everyone who commented and special thanks to Vox for posting this and special thanks to Athol whose book gave me a chance to save my marriage and family. Athol also gave me a lot of personal advice via email.\nI will update in a couple of months in case anyone is every searching for posts and finds themselves in a similar situation.",

        "raw_content": "Normally, for our full-throttle Thursday, we talk about vehicles with motors. But we're beyond just sticking to categories because they make sense, here at the Treasure Tour blog. That's why today, we would like to harken back to something that was introduced before the automobile hit the streets. But not far before. It was first seen in the 1870's, and went by many names: the \"High Wheeler,\" the \"Ordinary,\" the \"Penny Farthing.\" But we can just call it the ridiculously dangerous bicycle before there was the actual bicycle. The man accredited with the invention. of this transportation anomaly was Eugene Meyer of Paris, France. In 1869, he introduced the wire-spoke tension. wheel that would become an important part of wheeled transportation after his invention.\nThe front wheel of the Penny Farthing (named after two coins used in English currency during the late-19th century, one super big and one teeny tiny) was crazy big - around four feet tall, give or take. The size of the wheel provided a cushion to the driver, which made a difference considering that the tires were solid rubber and in no way insulated them from bumpy roads. The driver would pretty much have to climb onto the top of the bike, and be acutely aware of road conditions because a fall from that height could be dangerous - even fatal. Of course, the development of the safety bike - with its pneumatic tires, and smaller wheels connected to the pedals with chains that allowed for much more practical usage - would be the end of the very short-lived age of the Penny Farthing. Maybe not such a bad thing, considering the danger in which the driver was placed.\nTagged: Ordinary, High Wheeler, Eugene Meyer, Safety Bicycle",

        "raw_content": "Euro Coach Builders are a small company based in a rural region in the north part of Ireland. Euro Coach Builders have a modern purpose built base in Gweedore, Co. Donegal, Ireland and has since become the largest builders of buses in the Irish Republic. Euro Coach Builders are responsible for the production of a wide range of quality vehicles, including coach built vehicles with a capacity of up to 45 seats for our midi- coach, 55 seats on School Buses as well as a complete selection of conversions and special purpose vehicles. These vehicles are custom built according to the customer input which takes place throughout the entire fabrication of the bus.\nThe objectives of this process are to:\nimprove the customer information that is going to the shop floor in order to reduce delays as they take place,\nimprove customer satisfaction of finished products,\nreduce rework due to outdated customer requirements,\nincrease the level of traceability of orders on the shop floor,\nstreamline the re-configuration of products coming on to the shop floor,\ntreamline the material management.\nThe key business process in Euro Coach Builders was analysed. It begins with a contact from the customers. In the initial contact a basic outline of the coach requirements is communicated to Euro Coach in terms of the overall size etc. These initial specifications are fed into the production plan of the overall manufacturing floor. The specifications are not finalised however until later in the process. For example type of air conditioning and seat covers. The production plan is made up for each order that comes in and a draft schedule is drawn up. However order specifications often begin to change when the final specifications are given to the order manager. The first draft of the final specification is used to schedule the final assembly however often it happens that the customer may have a change of mind after the specification execution has taken place. Re-work often happens and this may also be due to the fact that the updated order specification did not make it to the workers on the shop floor in time. After final assembly is taken place a cross check to ensure that the final product is to the most recent specification that the customer has order is taken place. From this a functional test is also taken place to ensure that all the features are working on the final product. A summary of the process flow can be seen in the following Figure.\nAfter analysing the business processes an assessment of the potential benefits of the improvement activities and AmI solution were discussed. Based on this discussion further prioritisation of the key weak points to be addressed took place and the key issues to be addressed were decided. It was decided to target the customer order management and to make improvements and innovations in this area. Therefore, priority was given to the production control and customer order management, aiming at improving the change request process of customer orders so as to avoid any delays or increase in production costs.\nFinally the following aspect for a human centric optimisation were elaborated:\nreal time assembly instructions to shop floor workers based on their skill sets with respect to the user requirements gathered using SRS to capture these requirements off site from the customer.\nProviding technology to enable customer dealers in Euro Coach builders to capture the requirements using an SRS and specification of the coach in real time and translate this to shop floor instructions.\nTo provide real time work order status of orders on the shop floor using RFID and compare work completed to updated requirements specification.\nUsing RFID historic information to estimate potential completion dates for customers of orders.",

        "raw_content": "by Marketing Pithy | Sep 4, 2018 | Blog |\nEqual pay among the sexes has been an ongoing source of consternation for decades. As of 2017, the average full-time female employee earned only 82 percent of the wages of her male counterpart. In fields like sports, where men have had a majority hold, this discrepancy in earnings is even sharper. Female athletes were only pulling in a pittance when compared to males within the same sport. Not to mention the fact that male athletes get more recognition and sponsorship. The whole world stops to watch the World Cup when it\u2019s the men playing, but what about women\u2019s championships? It\u2019s doubtful that they\u2019re even televised across as many channels.\nDespite these pitiful earnings prospects for women, skiing seems to be one of the outliers. According to the International Ski Federation, the top-tier female alpine skiers have earned more than males for two consecutive years. Mikaela Shiffrin, an American alpine skier, has earned more prize money than anyone else in the sport, regardless of gender.\nMegan Harrod, an Alpine Press Officer for the Ski and Snowboard Team of the United States, says that discussions about equal pay make the discrepancy between male and female earnings totals into a more insane perspective. Harrod applauded the fact that female skier were earning more than male skiers and likened this state as a golden age for female athletes.\nOne of the explanations for this spike in female financial success is because FIS demands equal prize money minimums for each Audi FIS World Cup event. Findings from a BBC study, covering 44 different prize-money-awarding sports, alpine skiing was the only sport among a pool of 35 which equally distributed prize money between athletes, regardless of their gender.\nHarrod commented that FIS athletes are honored to participate in a sport that acknowledges paying its athletes the same amount of money, regardless of their sex. Harrod has often compared female skiiers to various professional female soccer players, including Abby Wambach. Wambach finished her career with a record-setting goal count and an annual salary of $200,000; conversely, Lionel Messi, a male pro soccer player with a less exemplary record made $50 million annually.\nThe US Women\u2019s World Cup Soccer Team has claimed three wins in the FIFA World Cup since it began 30 years ago; the men\u2019s team has failed to become finalists in the 90 year existence of the Men\u2019s Soccer World Cup. Despite FIFA World Cup 2015\u2019s final game between US Women against Japan being the most-viewed soccer game in American history, they only earned $2 million; this year\u2019s Men\u2019s World Cup winners received $38 million.\nBut, hopefully with skiing leading the way, other sports will soon fall in line. Regardless, it\u2019s encouraging to see skiing working to diminish those barriers.",

        "raw_content": "\u2b05 Updates, 9/13/12.\n\u201cArleen Spenceley Writes About... \u27a1\nBreaking up and making up.\nIn a substance abuse counseling class I took in the spring semester, I learned a lot about withdrawals.\n\u201cWithdrawal\u201d is what happens to a person\u2019s body and/or mind after he or she stops using certain drugs. Withdrawals could include the sweats and the shakes, nausea and diarrhea, insomnia and anxiety, depression and restlessness, a rapid heart rate, hallucinations, delirium tremens (DTs).\nIt sucks, in other words.\nBut the return to homeostasis (equilibrium) requires allostasis (the process by which the body achieves it).\nAnd allostasis isn\u2019t always easy.\nThis is (one of several reasons) why some people who are mid-withdrawal relapse before it\u2019s over.\nThe discomfort starts as soon as the person calls it quits. And if the sudden absence of the drug is what triggered the discomfort, it is understandable that some people will go back to the drug. Going back to the drug alleviates the discomfort (but doesn\u2019t give the user time to stop craving it).\nThis is not unlike what I sometimes watch happen when certain relationships end. And that is not to say people are addicted to each other (although sometimes that\u2019s debatable).\nBut upon breaking up, a guy or a girl \u2013 especially the rejected, but often also the reject-er \u2013 grieves the loss of the relationship. There\u2019s crying, and coming up with all the things you wish you\u2019d said (or hadn\u2019t). There\u2019s emotional eating, or emotional not-eating, and heartache.\nAnd I think this is (one of several reasons) why people do a lot of breaking up and making up (and breaking up and making up again, and again, and again). If the sudden absence of [insert applicable person\u2019s name here] is what triggered the discomfort, it is understandable that some people will go back to him or her.\nBut is your response to rejection necessarily a good gauge for whether the relationship should have ended?\nI\u2019d say that it\u2019s as good a gauge as withdrawals are for whether a user should have stopped using a drug.* Because the truth is, withdrawal symptoms are not signs that walking away from the drug was a bad idea. Withdrawal symptoms are natural, and necessary.\nGrief over the end of a relationship, then, is not necessarily a sign that walking away from it was a bad idea.\nGrief is natural and necessary.\nGive yourself time (to stop craving).\n*This is not to say that no couple that breaks up should ever \u2018make up\u2019. Many couples who break up can and do get back together for good reasons. This, however, is to say that the existence of post-break-up grief is not as sufficient a reason to resume a relationship as some people interpret it to be.",

        "title": "RUSSIAN-U.S. WORKSHOP ON WARHEAD TRANSPARENCY -- hosted by the Federation of American Scientists, Washington D.C., November 9-10, 1998",
        "raw_content": "Conclusions from the\nRUSSIAN-U.S. WORKSHOP ON WARHEAD TRANSPARENCY\nhosted by the Federation of American Scientists, Washington D.C., November 9-10, 1998\nThe purpose of the workshop was to explore the current state of the Russian-U.S. discussion of a possible warhead transparency regime and to identify actions that could facilitate progress. The workshop participants consisted of Russian and American non-governmental experts, and governmental experts participating in a non-official capacity (see list at end). In the view of a core group of non-governmental participants (Bukharin, Bunn, Diakov, Luongo and von Hippel), the meeting identified possible activities in two areas:\na) Clarifying major policy issues; and\nb) Possible first steps forward\nA. MAJOR POLICY ISSUES\nThese are issues for which there is no immediate answer, but which need to be analyzed and resolved before any meaningful warhead dismantlement transparency regime can be completed.\n1. THE U.S. UP-LOAD HEDGE AND RUSSIAN AND U.S. TACTICAL NUCLEAR WARHEADS\nIn 1994, the U.S. made a policy decision to configure its START II forces in a manner that would make possible an increase in the number of U.S. deployed strategic warheads back to roughly twice the treaty-permitted number. (This is known as the \"up-load hedge.\") This upload capability is of concern to the Russian Government and addressing it appears to be the principal motive for Russian Government's interest in the transparent elimination of warheads. Russia therefore has a strong interest in seeing that the warheads downloaded from strategic missiles under START II and III are eliminated under a dismantlement regime.\nThe U.S. Government, for its part, is very concerned about the possibility of a large number of remaining Russian tactical nuclear warheads. It would like to have transparency in tactical nuclear-warhead stocks and, if Russia's stock is much larger than that of the U.S., to see substantial reductions.\nThe Russian Government objects to including tactical nuclear warheads in the START III negotiations and the United States has been reluctant to agree to dismantle its up-load hedge warheads. During the workshop, some American participants suggested that an obvious compromise would include transparent reductions in the U.S. upload hedge in return for transparent reductions in excess Russian tactical nuclear weapons. Russian participants, however, took the view that Russia will be interested in warhead transparency for tactical nuclear weapons only if NATO makes a binding agreement not to deploy nuclear weapons in new member countries and the U.S. withdraws its nuclear weapons from Europe.\n2. RECIPROCAL TRANSPARENCY AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR RUSSIAN WARHEAD DISMANTLEMENT.\nThe economic crisis in Russia has raised questions about the maintenance of warhead dismantlement rates. The Russian-U.S. Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) deal is, in part, already helping Russia finance the dismantlement of its excess nuclear warheads, because Russia is able to sell the uranium that is removed from the warheads.\nFour options to provide additional funds to facilitate the financing of warhead dismantlement in a context of reciprocal warhead transparency were raised at and after the workshop:\nthe U.S. could provide to Russia a partial pre-payment (e.g. 20 percent) of its expected total payment for each year's delivery of blended HEU;\nthe U.S. could provide an additional payment at the end of each year if the HEU blend-down rate exceeds that required by the HEU deal;\nCooperative Threat Reduction [CTR] program funds could be used to modernize and re-tool one of Russia's dismantlement plants to create a facility dedicated solely to the mission of transparently and irreversibly dismantling warheads that are declared excess, either unilaterally or pursuant to an international agreement; and\nCTR or similar funds could be used to pay part of the costs of Russian warhead dismantlement in return for transparency to confirm that this dismantlement is taking place. Transparency would be implemented on a reciprocal basis at U.S. dismantlement facilities as well.\n3. RELEVANCE OF ASYMMETRIES IN THE WEAPONS PRODUCTION AND MAINTENANCE COMPLEXES, AND IN SECRECY REQUIREMENTS\nIn order to fully achieve the security objectives of both sides in pursuing a warhead transparency regime, a number of asymmetries between the two warhead complexes and their contexts must be dealt with. The U.S. is concerned about differences in nuclear-weapons-production capacities, and warhead and weapons-usable material stockpiles. Russia is concerned about differences in financial resources, upload capacities, and about possible security dangers arising from the compromise of secret information about its facilities. Additionally, the development of a transparency regime could be impeded by differences in the sizes of nuclear-weapon-production infrastructures, weapon re-manufacturing rates, and dismantlement operations and schedules. As a first step, each country should list the asymmetries which concern it, along with an explanation of why they are of concern. Then consideration should be given to how to apply transparency measures in a way that can mitigate political and perception problems, minimize operational impacts, and reduce worries about possible breakouts.\nB. POSSIBLE FIRST STEPS TOWARD A NEW REGIME\nAt present there are no formal or informal on-going negotiations between the U.S. and Russia on the issue of a warhead-transparency regime. Virtually all of the work that is occurring is under contracts between the U.S. and Russian nuclear laboratories. Almost all of these contracts focus on technical and conceptual aspects of a possible regime because of the extreme security and classification concerns surrounding the issue. Listed below are some suggestions put forth at the workshop for first steps that could be taken to facilitate the movement toward a comprehensive warhead transparency regime.\n1. A TRANSPARENCY AGREEMENT ON PIT-CONVERSION.\nMoving directly into the monitoring of warhead dismantlement activities at a warhead assembly/disassembly plant is a highly unlikely first step. However, an early agreement might be possible on reciprocal transparency at the point in the warhead-elimination process where plutonium pits are changed to unclassified shapes. These activities are scheduled to be undertaken by both countries and are likely to occur at the Mayak plant in Russia and at either Savannah River or Pantex sites in the U.S.\nAt present the U.S., Russia, and IAEA, under the Trilateral Initiative, are negotiating arrangements to monitor that excess weapon material sent to the Mayak storage facility (where re-cast plutonium from Russian pits will be stored) is not returned to weapon programs. The U.S. and Russia are engaged in separate bilateral negotiations on monitoring arrangements. However, these discussions continue to be at an impasse because of differences over how to provide assurance that the plutonium to be stored in the storage facility is of weapons-origin.\nThe U.S. proposes limited chain of custody arrangements, starting with threshold measurements (plutonium isotopics, mass, symmetry and size) on Russian pits in their canisters before they are converted to unclassified forms. A U.S. offer to implement identical transparency measures on a reciprocal basis at its planned pit-conversion facilities might help resolve this difference and build confidence to support the creation of a broader regime. CTR funds could be used to help ease operational bottlenecks in the Russian pit-conversion process if this proposal were adopted.\n2. A DECLARATION OF WARHEADS ELIMINATED AND REMAINING TO BE ELIMINATED UNDER THE 1991 BUSH-GORBACHEV INITIATIVES\nIn 1991, Presidents Bush and Gorbachev each unilaterally agreed to eliminate certain classes of nuclear weapons. These are still the only warheads both countries have officially agreed to eliminate. As a result, the obstacles to increased transparency could be lowest when dealing with these weapons. Both countries could declare how many of these warheads have been dismantled and how many remain to be disassembled. A follow-on initiative could include declarations of the plutonium pits recovered from these warheads and bilateral monitoring of them, and any plutonium recovered from them.\n3. FACILITY-SPECIFIC STUDIES\nThe U.S. has carried out a detailed study on the costs and impacts of specific approaches to activities related to transparent warhead dismantlement if implemented at specific U.S. facilities. This study includes an analysis of how activities related to transparent warhead dismantlement might be segregated from activities relating to maintenance of the enduring nuclear stockpile -- perhaps even in entirely separate dedicated facilities. Russia should carry out a similar detailed study -- perhaps with support from the lab-lab program.\n4. AN EXCHANGE OF DIAGRAMS SHOWING LAYOUTS AND WARHEAD FLOWS THROUGH THE DISMANTLEMENT FACILITIES\nThe U.S. has proposed an exchange of unclassified tours of the U.S. Pantex plant of and a Russian dismantlement plant in order to familiarize each country with the flow of the dismantlement process in the other country. (Journalists have already been offered such tours of the Pantex plant.) The U.S. has offered to host the first visit at Pantex if the Russian government could reciprocate. However, this idea has not yet been accepted by the Russian government. The benefits of implementing this idea, and the means to do so without compromising secrets on either side, were discussed at some length at the workshop.\nA possible first step in this direction put forth at the workshop envisions that each country would unilaterally draw up, on paper, an unclassified description of activities at its dismantlement plants and a schematic diagram of how warheads flow though the dismantlement processes. This could constitute a confidence-building first step toward reciprocal \"walk-throughs\" and then unclassified demonstrations of warhead transparency measures and procedures at the dismantlement facilities in both countries.\n5. ARRANGEMENTS FOR VERIFYING THE SHUT-DOWN OR CONVERTED STATUS OF EXCESS WARHEAD-PRODUCTION CAPACITY, AND NON-PRODUCTION OF NEW WARHEADS\nA particular interest of the U.S. will be to gain assurance that shut-down or converted warhead dismantlement plants in Russia are not covertly producing new nuclear warheads. There are also questions about how the re-manufacturing of weapons could be distinguished from new warhead production. A first step should be a lab-lab study on possible transparency measures to address these issues.\n6. COOPERATIVE RESEARCH WITH THE RUSSIAN MINISTRY OF DEFENSE AND U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ON POSSIBLE CHAIN-OF CUSTODY ARRANGEMENTS FOR WARHEADS\nThe Russian Ministry of Defense plays a greater role in the Russian warhead dismantlement process than the Department of Defense does in the U.S. For example, warhead storage at Russian dismantlement sites is under the control of the MoD's 12th Directorate. To date, however, no cooperation under the lab-to-lab program has been initiated with the MOD.\nAn ideal starting point for this cooperation would be research on a possible transparent chain-of-custody arrangement for warheads as they move from active field deployment to dismantlement. This could involve tagging warheads or their containers at military storage sites or, in some cases, even at deployment sites when the warheads are downloaded from missiles. Such approaches could turn out to be the only reliable means to distinguish strategic from tactical warheads, should the two sides agree on limitations that apply differently to the two types of warheads, as suggested in the Helsinki Summit statement.\nThis will require cooperation from both the Russian Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Department of Defense. A possible partner for the U.S. in the development of this dimension of transparency could be the 12th Directorate's Central Technical-Physical Institute in Sergiev Posad (formerly Zagorsk).\n7. DECLARATIONS OF TOTAL WARHEAD STOCKS\nIn September 1994, President Clinton and President Yeltsin agreed to an exchange of data on each country's stockpiles of nuclear warheads, plutonium, and highly-enriched uranium [HEU]. In January 1995 the United States put forward a specific proposal for stockpile declarations by both nations. This proposal was rejected by Russia -- apparently because of the amount of detail proposed in the information exchange. A simpler declaration of aggregate warhead stocks -- perhaps divided into strategic and tactical weapon categories -- could be a more acceptable first step. If the United States declassified its aggregate stockpile information, as it has done for plutonium, then implementation of such an exchange would not require an Agreement for Cooperation under the U.S. Atomic Energy Act.\n8. DECLARATIONS OF TOTAL PLUTONIUM AND HEU STOCKS.\nThe U.S. has already made public its total stockpile of plutonium by isotopic grade and site (with Pantex and all warhead sites lumped into a single warhead/pit \"site\"), along with the history of U.S. production, acquisition and disposition of separated plutonium. The United States is expected soon to release similar information on its HEU stockpile.\nRussia has not released information on either of its fissile-material stockpiles. Russian officials and laboratory experts have indicated that Russia does not currently have funds available to pull together the information in a form comparable to what the United States has released on its plutonium stockpile. A useful step would be to undertake a lab-to-lab contract in which the United States would pay the cost of preparing an inventory of Russia's plutonium stockpiles in return for receiving information at the same level of detail as the United States has already released. If this worked well for plutonium, a similar approach could be taken for Russia's HEU stockpiles once the United States has released its data. These further declarations would support agreements for deep cuts in the warhead stockpiles.\nAnatoli Diakov (Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology)\nGennady Kruglov (Chelyabinsk-70/Princeton)\nIgor Markov (Chelyabinsk-70/Princeton)\nPetr Romashkin (Staff, Defense Committe, Russian State Duma)\nVladimir Rybachenkov (Ministry of Foreign Affairs)\nOleg Bukharin (Princeton University)\nMatthew Bunn (Harvard University)\nCharles Ferguson (FAS)\nSteve Fetter (University of Maryland/CISAC)\nAmbassador James Goodby\nJoshua Handler (Princeton University)\nBill Hoehn (RANSAC)\nKen Luongo (RANSAC)\nFrank von Hippel (Princeton University)\nAndrew Bieniawski (DOE)\nGeoffrey Forden (CBO)\nRobert Gromoll (ACDA)\nT.R.Koncher (DOD/ LLNL)\nDenny Jones (DOS)\nCol.

        "raw_content": "Harbor Springs sailor's team places first in 4,500-mile race\nJuly 07, 2005|By Kirsten Fredrickson, News-Review staff writer\nPOINTE NOIRE - In his first training race, Harbor Springs' George H. Peet and his fellow ABN AMRO TWO crew have come away victors.\nThe crew of the second ABN AMRO sailboat, scheduled to race the Volvo Ocean Race later this year, finished first in the 4,500-plus mile Route de l'Equateur race from Marseille, France, to Congo-Brazzaville. They sailed a 60-foot V60 boat formerly known as the Tyco. And they did it competing against four other boats, finishing in 22 days, 16 hours and 28 minutes despite having less collective ocean racing experience.\nWith less than six months until the start of the Volvo Ocean Race, 25-year-old Peet and his fellow crew members used this time on the water getting to know and trust one another. For the eight young crew, selected during an open selection process, this race was also the first time to cross the equator, something of a rite of passage in the yachting world.\n\"The past three weeks were good, the last days were not so great since we had no wind,\" said Peet. \"It is strange to know that you are in 24 hours range, but that it still takes three days to cover that distance. We were lucky in the beginning with a big breeze out of the Mediterranean. As for King Neptune at the equator, you really had to be on board to understand. He was quite tame to me though.\"\nFor Peet, who sailed the waters of Little Traverse Bay as a young boy, it is the Volvo Ocean Race that will be the real challenge and a dream come true.\n\"If you're at all into boating you've probably heard about it,\" he said previously of the race. \"It's so awesome just watching these guys send this boat through the southern ocean. Just to be apart of this is unbelievable.\"\nPeet will join sailors from Australia, Brazil and the Netherlands to sail the Volvo Ocean Race from Spain in November 2005 around the world and into Gothenburg, Sweden in the summer of 2006. The race will also make appearances in Baltimore and New York. It is a seven-month long competition covering more than 31,000 nautical miles. It is recognized as one of the fastest and most intense races in the world of sailing.\nWhile Peet knows he has a lot of work ahead of him, he's still looking forward to the challenge.\n\"When we show up to that starting line, that will be cool,\" he said in a previous interview with the News-Review. \"It's going to be awesome!\"\nNews briefs from around the world\nNews briefs: Warnings credit with saving lives during...\nAstronaut hero Neil Armstrong is dead",

Our identity emerges from all of this sense-making, and with it our desire to express both our individuality and place within the world. Our fundamental need to communicate, how and what we exchange, is of great interest to me.\nAs an artist I am inevitably concerned with the business of communication, and I strive through a variety of materials, techniques and locations, to explore this subjects many facets. The Manor Lodge site in particular will provide the perfect base for project development, given the opportunities it will present to utilise its diverse social history and its current engagement with local communities.\nWhen and where can people see your work?\nI will be taking part in the Yorkshire Artspace Open Studio even on Saturday 16th November and will be displaying some of my recent work, as well working on clay, sewing and video projects, throughout the course of the day.\nhttp://www.joannebarlow.com\nhttp://www.joannebarlowmanoroaks.wordpress.com",

        "title": "Raising Children Without God - Atheist Nexus",
        "raw_content": "Posted by Steph S. on February 1, 2013 at 10:58am in Atheism\nI was so happy to hear of this Texas mom and her blog - so I have posted it here for everyone to read.\nBy TXBlue08 | Posted January 14, 2013 | Texas\nCNN PRODUCER NOTE TXBlue08, a mother of two teenagers in Texas, blogs about raising her children without religion. She said she shared this essay on CNN iReport because 'I just felt there is not a voice out there for women/moms like me. I think people misunderstand or are fearful of people who don\u2019t believe in God.'\nWhen my son was around 3 years old, he used to ask me a lot of questions about heaven. Where is it? How do people walk without a body? How will I find you? You know the questions that kids ask.\nHere are a few of the reasons why I am raising my children without God.\nGod is a bad parent and role model.\nIf God is our father, then he is not a good parent. Good parents don\u2019t allow their children to inflict harm on others. Good people don\u2019t stand by and watch horrible acts committed against innocent men, women and children. They don\u2019t condone violence and abuse. \u201cHe has given us free will,\u201d you say? Our children have free will, but we still step in and guide them.\nGod is not logical.\nHow many times have you heard, \u201cWhy did God allow this to happen?\u201d And this: \u201cIt\u2019s not for us to understand.\u201d Translate: We don\u2019t understand, so we will not think about it or deal with the issue. Take for example the senseless tragedy in Newtown. Rather than address the problem of guns in America, we defer responsibility to God. He had a reason. He wanted more angels. Only he knows why. We write poems saying that we told God to leave our schools. Now he\u2019s making us pay the price. If there is a good, all-knowing, all-powerful God who loves his children, does it make sense that he would allow murders, child abuse, wars, brutal beatings, torture and millions of heinous acts to be committed throughout the history of mankind? Doesn\u2019t this go against everything Christ taught us in the New Testament?\nThe question we should be asking is this: \u201cWhy did we allow this to happen?\u201d How can we fix this? No imaginary person is going to give us the answers or tell us why. Only we have the ability to be logical and to problem solve, and we should not abdicate these responsibilities to \u201cGod\u201d just because a topic is tough or uncomfortable to address.\nIf God is fair, then why does he answer the silly prayers of some while allowing other, serious requests, to go unanswered? I have known people who pray that they can find money to buy new furniture. (Answered.) I have known people who pray to God to help them win a soccer match. (Answered.) Why are the prayers of parents with dying children not answered?\nIf God is fair, then why are some babies born with heart defects, autism, missing limbs or conjoined to another baby? Clearly, all men are not created equally. Why is a good man beaten senseless on the street while an evil man finds great wealth taking advantage of others? This is not fair. A game maker who allows luck to rule mankind\u2019s existence has not created a fair game.\nGod does not protect the innocent.\nHe does not keep our children safe. As a society, we stand up and speak for those who cannot. We protect our little ones as much as possible. When a child is kidnapped, we work together to find the child. We do not tolerate abuse and neglect. Why can\u2019t God, with all his powers of omnipotence, protect the innocent?\nGod is not present.\nHe is not here. Telling our children to love a person they cannot see, smell, touch or hear does not make sense. It means that we teach children to love an image, an image that lives only in their imaginations. What we teach them, in effect, is to love an idea that we have created, one that is based in our fears and our hopes.\nGod Does Not Teach Children to Be Good\nA child should make moral choices for the right reasons. Telling him that he must behave because God is watching means that his morality will be externally focused rather than internally structured. It\u2019s like telling a child to behave or Santa won\u2019t bring presents. When we take God out of the picture, we place responsibility of doing the right thing onto the shoulders of our children. No, they won\u2019t go to heaven or rule their own planets when they die, but they can sleep better at night. They will make their family proud. They will feel better about who they are. They will be decent people.\nGod Teaches Narcissism\n\u201cGod has a plan for you.\u201d Telling kids there is a big guy in the sky who has a special path for them makes children narcissistic; it makes them think the world is at their disposal and that, no matter what happens, it doesn\u2019t really matter because God is in control. That gives kids a sense of false security and creates selfishness. \u201cNo matter what I do, God loves me and forgives me. He knows my purpose. I am special.\u201d The irony is that, while we tell this story to our kids, other children are abused and murdered, starved and neglected. All part of God\u2019s plan, right?\nWhen we raise kids without God, we tell them the truth\u2014we are no more special than the next creature. We are just a very, very small part of a big, big machine\u2013whether that machine is nature or society\u2013the influence we have is minuscule. The realization of our insignificance gives us a true sense of humbleness.\nI understand why people need God. I understand why people need heaven. It is terrifying to think that we are all alone in this universe, that one day we\u2014along with the children we love so much\u2014will cease to exist. The idea of God and an afterlife gives many of us structure, community and hope.\nI do not want religion to go away. I only want religion to be kept at home or in church where it belongs. It\u2019s a personal effect, like a toothbrush or a pair of shoes. It\u2019s not something to be used or worn by strangers. I want my children to be free not to believe and to know that our schools and our government will make decisions based on what is logical, just and fair\u2014not on what they believe an imaginary God wants.\nPermalink Reply by Dustin Roy on February 1, 2013 at 1:38pm\nChildren shouldn't be brainwashed into religion whatsoever. Actually, I'm surprised it's legal to do so because they will believe anything that their parents tell them. Yes I know there are people who believe their religion is the correct one and think religion is good blah, blah, blah, but parents who brainwash their child's mind with religion are not giving them the opportunity to explore every avenue and every mystery that this world has to offer. In reality, there is nothing true about religion. Children should rather be taught the important basics of self improvement and education, allowing them to form their own opinions and decide for themselves if they want to be religious or not.\nI agree with you Dustin.\nYou are doing a great job booklover.",

        "raw_content": "Protect Your Roof From Overlooked Dangers\nRoofs are durable, but they are not invincible. Even with an attention to regular maintenance, there are several dangers out there that can cause significant damage to your roof, and ultimately, other areas of your home. Learn what these dangers are so that you can adequately protect your home.\nLeaves, nests and even small animals can all settle inside your gutters. It might not seem like a big deal, but when it rains or snows and the moisture tries to drain into the gutters and away from your home \u2013 it can't. Instead, it will settle on your roof or roll down your home and settle around the foundation.\nIn terms of pooling water on the roof, this can lead to shingle damage and even a roof leak. It's important for homeowners to regularly have their gutters cleaned to eliminate debris from clogging them. How often you need to clean your gutters will vary, but a professional can help you determine the right schedule.\nAn excessive amount of fallen leaves can also be problematic for your roof. The primary problem with leaves is the fact that they hold a lot of moisture and the more leaves piled on top of each other, the slower the evaporation of this moisture. Eventually, this moisture will seep into the under-layers of your shingles, which can cause them to lift.\nEven a small amount of lifting on the shingle leaves enough space for moisture to get inside. If the problem is not corrected, the shingles will only continue to lift and allow even more water to get inside. If you see a lot of leaves resting on your roof, have them removed.\nAnother thing to look out for are tree branches. As previously stated, roofs do have limits and this is especially the case when it comes to heavy branches. Excess weight on your roof is one quick way to failure as it puts pressure on the roof. Branches also provide an excellent place for animals to hide and make nests, which also opens the door to future problems.\nLastly, they can also suddenly come tumbling down off the roof. If you or someone else is down below, the branch could cause serious injuries. Similar to leaves, have the branches removed promptly.\nTake action to prevent these dangers from causing damage to your home. A roofing professional can assist you should you need additional help rectifying any of these, or any other, problems. Find more information about roofing contractors by talking to a professional in your area.",

        "raw_content": "Latest Cycling News for May 7, 2007\nEdited by Gregor Brown\nDekker back on track\nWinner of Romandie, Dekker (Rabobank)\nPhoto \ufffd: AFP\nThomas Dekker hopes that he has put the injuries and illnesses of 2006 behind him, as he won the closing time trial Sunday in the Tour de Romandie, which shot him up into the overall lead. It was the 22 year-old's second ProTour victory.\nLast season, he missed the Tour de France after coming down with a virus just days before the race started. When he returned to the peloton, he broke his hand in a crash in the Tour of Poland. Even this year started out with various illnesses, but by the time the Ardennes Classics rolled around, he was starting to get into shape. He did well in the Amstel Gold Race, Fl\ufffdche Wallonne and LBL, but not well enough.\nHe came into his own last week though, in the Tour de Romandie. He was a close second in Saturday's Queen stage, and in fact filed a protest that winner Igor Anton had cut him off in the sprint finish. That protest was denied by the race jury. Disappointed to have lost, he still saw the stage positively, saying \"I feel I have shown that I am the old Thomas again, the one the Netherlands lost last year right before the Tour de France. I had some left after the Classics and am thrilled I came to this course,\" according to rabobank.nl.\nHe made up for it with his dominating win in the time trial. Directeur Sportif Erik Dekker (no relation - ed.) said, \"Thomas showed himself for the first time on previously unknown terrain. That gave a lot of confidence but you cannot know then if the time trial, his specialty, will earn him a first, second, or third place.\n\"I never worried about it, even when Savoldelli was faster in the first part of the time trial. He is strong in turns and in descending, but Thomas neatly won back time in the second part. That makes sense because yesterday [Saturday - ed.] he was stronger uphill than Savoldelli as well.\"\nThe elder Dekker added that the younger Dekker rode a nearly perfect race, \"Like he had never done anything else. I saw he was really uptight before the race. I think Thomas is really glad that he now succeeded in matching a result to his good legs. Of course, he did not ask us two weeks ago if he could start here for no reason.\"\nThe youngster will now take a month's break. \"After that I am going to Luxembourg, after that to Switzerland, and then I will be riding the Dutch Championships and the Tour de France.\"\nSavoldelli in flying Giro form\nSavoldelli (Astana)\nPaolo Savoldelli fell short of taking the overall honours in Tour de Romandie but showed he is on-form for the Giro d'Italia. The Italian, who turns 34 years-old today, came into the finish five seconds slower than 22 year-old Thomas Dekker of Rabobank and finished 11 seconds down in the overall classification. The Swiss race, including his prologue win, proved a good test for the rider known as Il Falco Bergamasco ('The Bergamo falcon').\nAfter the penultimate stage, stage 4, Savoldelli would have had to recuperate 15\" on Chris Horner and six on Dekker to claim the final overall. Il Falco, who won the race overall in 2000, could not hold the young Dutchman on the 20.4 kilometre course around Lausanne.\n\"At the start of the race I never thought that I would arrive one step away from overall success,\" noted the Astana rider to La Gazzetta dello Sport after finishing second overall. \"It is obvious that when you find yourself so close to a win you are left with regrets for what could have been. But in Romandie I did not really lose the final time trial, I rode very well behind an amazing Dekker.\"\nSaturday\ufffds rainy stage showed that Savoldelli is ready for the Giro's climbs. The race starts this weekend in Sardegna but the true mountains won't come until the final week, where there will also be a 42-kilometre individually timed test in Verona.\n\"The seconds I lost in the last kilometre of Saturday's stage cost me a lot. However, I had the responses that I was searching for. Physically I am great, and I am ready for the Giro.\"\nSavoldelli first one the Giro in 2002 with Index Alexia and then, five years later, repeated the win with Discovery Channel. This year, he will lead a strong Astana squad that will face fierce competitors like Gilberto Simoni, Danilo Di Luca and Damiano Cunego.\nMcQuaid discusses anti-doping accord\n'Difficult' to exclude new Puerto riders from the Tour de France\nPhoto \ufffd: Gregor Brown\n\"It is one thing having differences in the administration of the sport, but we also have differences in the fight against doping, then the sport will lose.\" So said Pat McQuaid on Sunday, talking about the recent meeting between himself, Tour de France director Christian Prudhomme and Patrick Lefevere, chairman of the Federation of Professional teams (AIGCP).\nRepresenting the governing body, the Grand Tours and the professional teams, the three have a lot of influence and as a result of their agreement the anti-doping drive has moved a step forward. He told Cyclingnews that this unity is crucial. \"If we want to win, we have to at least to stick together on the fight against doping. And that we are.\"\nDifferences of opinion relating to the ProTour were put on hold when McQuaid, Prudhomme and Lefevere met in Moudon, Switzerland, on Friday, May 4. It was a productive meeting. \"Over the past three or four weeks there have been a lot of different messages coming out from stakeholders within the cycling family,\" said McQuaid, who explained the motive for the talks. \"You have ASO saying one thing, you have the teams saying and doing another thing, then you have a different team directors making other statements about what should and shouldn't happen. It is not the correct way to go.\n\"The reason why I asked Patrick Lefevere and Christian Prudhomme to meet and to discuss the situation was because I felt there should be one message coming from the cycling family as regards the way forward in the fight against doping. We dealt with two areas - one is Operaci\ufffdn Puerto and the other is the continuous and current fight against doping.\"\nRead the entire news feature.\nSchleck ready for Giro\nAndy Schleck did well enough in the Tour de Romandie's closing time trial to move up to eighth place overall, much to the delight of his Team CSC Directeur Sportif Scott Sunderland.\n\"Andy did really well in the time trial and reaffirmed that he is well and truly ready for the Giro d'Italia,\" Sunderland said on the team's website, team-csc.com. \"He gave us a great finish to what has been a great race for us. We've made our mark here with a nice result in the team competition and several brilliant attempts, where especially Chris Anker S\ufffdrensen did well.\"\nSunderland looked optimistically forward to the Giro, which starts this coming weekend in Sardegna. \"I think it looks very promising for those riders, who are going on to do Giro d'Italia now, so all in all I'm very satisfied.\"\nSchleck, 21 years-old, finished 22nd in the time trial, 1'29\" behind winner Thomas Dekker, but it was enough to propel him from tenth overall to eighth. That brought him the first ProTour points of his career, and increased CSC's lead in the team ranking.\nNibali doubles\nBallerini picks youngster for Giro\nVincenzo Nibali, winner of the 2006 GP Plouay, has concluded a successful weekend. The 22 year-old from Sicily won the 80th Giro di Toscana 24 hours after winning the GP Larciano.\nThe wet day in Tuscany was decided when Nibali attacked on the climb of Scopetone, nearly 15 kilometres to go. He was joined by Jos\ufffd Serpa (Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia) while behind teammates Andrea No\ufffd and Franco Pellizotti stood guard. On the decent into Arezzo Nibali dropped his companion and soloed home for the final 10 kilometres. Rolling in 15 seconds later were Matteo Priamo (Ceramica Panaria-Navigare), Daniele Pietropolli (Tenax-Menikini) and Pellizotti, who finished second to teammate Nibali the day before.\nIt was a strong sign of form the third-year pro, who will make his debut in the Giro d'Italia next week. Italian National DS Franco Ballerini witnessed the performance and liked what he saw.\n\"Nibali did a champion's number,\" commented Ballerini to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The DS has seen Nibali make his rise in Tuscany, where the young rider has made his base.\n\"He knows how to ride a time trial, to go on the flats and he goes strong in the climbs, plus he is endowed with good recuperation. There is still a lot to uncover but I see him as being a protagonist in stage races.\"\nNibali will make his debut in the Corsa Rosa when it starts this Saturday, from Sardegna. \"This will be his first Giro d'Italia and it is appropriate that he goes to help Danilo Di Luca. Experience teaches us that the road has a true hierarchy.\n\"This Giro, with out [Ivan] Basso, will be determined by less predictable strategies.\" Ballerini then gave a history lesson. \"I remember the 1965 Tour de France when an unknown Felice Gimondi took part. In Paris he was in the Maillot Jaune. Why dismiss the hypothesis that Nibali is able to be one of the revelations of this Giro?\"\nNibali, fresh off of two wins in two days, appreciated the encouragement of the Tuscan but indicated his alliances with Di Luca. \"There are still a lot of things I have to learn from the champions. At the Giro I will give myself to the team,\" said Nibali. He added, \"My form is amazing right now.\"\nKl\ufffdden picking up intensity\n\"I am very satisfied with the spring and my two stage race wins, Tirreno-Adriatico and Sarthe,\" says Astana's Andreas Kl\ufffdden modestly.\nAfter this successful start to the season, he took a short break and rested, with just a little light training. But the quiet time is over, as he now moves into a higher gear, he writes on his website, andreas-kloeden.com\n\"The beginning of next week I will intensify my training again and continue my preparations for the Tour de France\" he said. \"I will get back into racing the end of May, with the Bayern Rundfahrt. That race fits well in my preparations because of its profile.\"\nThe 31 year-old will line up for the 94th Tour de France when it departs on July 7, in London.\nSergeant calculates Predictor's Giro chances\n\"The chances are limited, but Robbie will be able to strike,\" said Predictor-Lotto Directeur Sportif Marc Sergeant to Sporza of team's sprinter for the upcoming Giro d'Italia.\nHe reckoned that the Giro will be a little bit difficult and it will not allow for many sprint finishes. \"I find the Giro quite severe,\" he continued. \"Mario Aerts will give the team experience, and, moreover, he can ride uphill.\n\"Wim Van Huffel rode a brilliant Giro two years ago ... Matthew Lloyd will possibly be a pleasant surprise, as will Jurgen Van den Broeck.\"\nThe Predictor-Lotto team for the Giro will be Mario Aerts, Dario Cioni, Josep Jufr\ufffd, Matthew Lloyd, Nick Gates, Robbie McEwen, Wim Van Huffel, Jurgen Van den Broeck and Stefano Zanini.\nKohl not satisfied with Romandie\nBernhard Kohl went into the Tour de Romandie with a good feeling and looking forward to the climbs. He came out of it asking why he had no power in his legs and vowing to have the problem solved before the Tour de France, which he is scheduled to ride for the first time this year.\nWriting on his website, bernhardkohl.at, the Gerolsteiner rider started the race off saying he felt he could afford to lose a few seconds in the prologue, as he thought he could easily make them up in the mountains. But when the Queen stage rolled around on Saturday, it was a different story.\nGoing into the first climb, he was in 25-man escape group. \"As it got really steep, though, I had absolutely no more strength in my legs and had to fall back immediately. I was swept up by the main group and couldn't even stay with them. By the time I got to the top, I was in a group behind the main field,\" he recalled. He was in a group together with teammate Markus Fothen, who had won the first stage.\nSprinter Robert F\ufffdrster brought them back to the peloton on the descent and subsequent flat section. \"If he hadn't closed that hole, 'Pf\ufffdtchen' and I would surely never have caught up.\"\nThe rest of the stage \"was simply torture. I was frustrated and the wet cold weather didn't help my mood.\" The Austrian was able to stay with the main group until the last climb. He ended the stage 3'23\" behind winner Igor Anton. \"For such a bad day, the damage held itself in limit,\" he noted.\n\"But I have no idea what caused it. I had promised myself a lot more; the bad weather surely played a role, and the crash two days earlier didn't exactly help. But that's sport. You have to learn to accept bad results, too,\" he said philosophically.\nHe was not totally dissatisfied with the concluding time trial Sunday, where he finished 52nd, 2'11\" minutes down from winner Thomas Dekker. He noted, however, that he did well on the light descent and the flat section, \"but when it went uphill, I had the same feeling as yesterday.\n\"Actually that should be my strength, but today I simply didn't have any power in my legs. I don't know why. I will be examined and with my trainer, look for the cause.\"\nMilram for \"4 Jours\"\nErik Zabel will lead Team Milram in the 4 Jours de Dunkerque, starting Tuesday in northeastern France. The race -- which despite its name runs for six days -- will cover 900 kilometres over a hilly parcours.\nMilram for Dunkerque will be Volodymyr Dyudya, Carlo Scognamiglio, Ralf Grabsch, Sebastian Siedler, Enrico Poitschke, Erik Zabel and Niki Terpstra.",

        "raw_content": ">> Encyclopedia articles Published Articles\nTAGS: Environment; Nature; Sustainable development\nParticipation of the Baha'i International Community in UN-sponsored development and environmental initiatives for resolving the difficult challenges before humanity.\nThe Baha'i Faith and the Environment\nby Richard Landau\npublished in Encyclopedia of Global Environmental Change volume 5: Social and Economic Dimensions of Global Environmental Change, ed. Peter Timmerman\nAbstract: This article explores the basic principles and beliefs of the members of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith and then examines how these can and are being applied to environmental and development challenges worldwide. Starting with a brief exploration of the basic spiritual tenets enunciated by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, the prophet-founder of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith, this article examines the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed \"prescription\" for resolving the difficult challenges before humanity. The Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith began in the nineteenth century in Persia and today numbers over six million adherents worldwide. Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that all world religions originate from a common divine source and that Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h was the messenger from God for this era. Contained in His teachings are specific measures to usher in a new world order based on spiritual principles.\nThe article concludes with an exploration of the participation of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community in UN-sponsored initiatives as well as a range of development and environmental projects undertaken by national and local Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities.\nThe author has been a member of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith in Canada since 1973 and is a graduate of Carleton University and the University of Ottawa. A leader in interfaith dialogue, Mr. Landau is author of \"The Willing Suspension of Belief: How the World's Religions Can Work Together\".\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith, which was founded in 1863, is the world's second most geographically widespread religion with more than 6 million adherents living throughout the world's nations, territories, islands and outposts. Following the example and teachings of their prophet-founder Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h (AD 1817-1892), the world's Bah\u00e1'\u00eds consider themselves to be the citizens of one country. Bah\u00e1'\u00eds regard the world as one organic unity.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith considers the monotheistic world religions part of an ever-advancing continuum that has a design. Each religion, they assert, has its origins in a common source or Godhead. A covenant exists between God and humanity whereby God reveals His plan gradually through His messengers. This is the fountainhead of human progress. Thus, from time to time, God sends forth prophets with revelations appropriate for a specific people at a specific period of human development. In keeping with the idea of this \"progressive revelation\", often the laws and customs of preceding revelations are abrogated with the advent of each succeeding religion. For Bah\u00e1'\u00eds, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h has revealed God's message to humanity for the current age; an age which will be characterized by world unity.\nBah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h (tr. \"The Glory of God\"), who was born in Persia, revealed numerous volumes of scriptures and laws upon which the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith is founded. He lays claim to being the most recent in a line of chosen messengers from God that includes his immediate precursor known as The Bab (tr. \"The Gate\"), Mohammed, Jesus, Moses and Abraham as well as Zoroaster, Buddha and Krishna. The Bab (1819-1850) who was born in Shiraz, Persia revealed in 1844 that he was the \"gate\" for One greater than himself who would begin His mission to humanity in 1863. Ecclesiastical and civil authorities in Persia, alarmed by the rapid growth of the Babi Movement and The Bab's claim to a revelation from God, persecuted His adherents and martyred The Bab on July 9, 1850. Likewise, because of His teachings, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h spent His adult life in prison and exile in various outposts of the Ottoman Empire, finally living out His last days under house arrest in the port city of Akka, near Haifa, Israel.\nWhile the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith has its origins in Islamic Persia, it is a discrete and independent faith that claims to represent the fulfillment of prophecies in the sacred texts of the preceding world religions. Bah\u00e1'\u00eds hold all revealed scriptures in highest regard as the `word of God', believing that the teachings of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, by virtue of the fact that they are the most recent revelation from God, are the most relevant for today.\nThe many teachings revealed by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h cover every aspect of life and relations between humanity and creation. Among the most basic tenets is a belief in the unity and interconnectedness of all things: the singularity of God; the equality of the races, sexes and all humanity; and that the chief task facing humanity is the construction of a just and merciful world-embracing civilization.\nThe pursuit of unity is reflected in the Faith's administrative order which includes elected local, regional, national and international administrative bodies. The worldwide headquarters of the Faith is located on Mount Carmel in Haifa, Israel - the final resting place of the remains of The Bab.\nBah\u00e1'\u00eds believe unity should also characterize the relationship between humanity and the natural environment created by an all-powerful God. In the words of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h , \"Ye are all the fruits of one tree, the leaves of one branch.\"[1] From the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed perspective, humanity is both physically and metaphorically linked to the world. In a letter written in 1933, Shoghi Effendi, a direct descendant of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h and known as the Guardian of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith wrote:\nWe cannot segregate the human heart from the environment outside us and say that once one of these is reformed everything will be improved. Man is organic with the world. His inner life moulds the environment and is itself also deeply affected by it. The one acts upon the other and every abiding change in the life of man is the result of these mutual reactions.[2]\nBah\u00e1'\u00eds recognize that the world is undergoing rapid socio-economic transitions that make the protection of the environment and sustainable development both critical and challenging. Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that only an integrated, balanced and comprehensive world view with a belief in a divine creator and unity of purpose will resolve environmental and development challenges. For example, when science and technology don't serve a divinely ordained purpose, they will actually contribute to the erosion of the planet's biodiversity. Materialistic civilization that replaces the idea of the `citizen' with the `consumer' cannot concern itself with the long-term viability of life on earth.\nThe Interconnectedness of Humanity and the Earth\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view on environmental conservation and sustainable development holds that: a) because the natural universe is a reflection of the majestic qualities and attributes of the Supreme Being, it inspires and should be accorded the utmost respect; b) all of creation is interconnected; c) that the unity of humanity is the essential truth and compelling force in this age. Of this, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h wrote: \"The earth is but one county, and mankind its citizens.\"[3] The concepts of world citizenship, prudent stewardship of the earth, and the interconnectedness of all things is the essence of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith.\nAbdu'l Bah\u00e1 (tr. Servant of the Glory), the son of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h amplified this point:\nFor every part of the universe is connected with every other part by ties that are very powerful and admit of no imbalance, nor any slackening whatever. . .[4]\nIn another reference, he remarked:\nCooperation and reciprocity are essential properties which are inherent in the unified system of the world of existence, and without which the entire creation would be reduced to nothingness.[5]\nAt the very heart of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view of the relationship between humanity and the natural universe is the belief that all of creation is an expression of the many names and attributes of an all-powerful God. Like the many different attributes of God, the natural realm has diverse \"causes\" or ideal environments in which it flourishes and expresses itself. Life is tenacious and can adapt itself to such diverse climates as polar, temperate, tropical and desert.\nNature in its essence is the embodiment of My Name, the Maker, the Creator. Its manifestations are diversified by varying causes, and in this diversity there are signs for men of discernment. Nature is God's Will and is its expression in and through the contingent world.[6]\nEvery man of discernment, while walking upon the earth, feeleth indeed abashed, inasmuch as he is fully aware that the thing which is the source of his prosperity, his wealth, his might, his exaltation, his advancement and power is, as ordained by God, the very earth which is trodden beneath the feet of all men. There can be no doubt that whoever is cognisant of this truth, is cleansed and sanctified from all pride, arrogance, and vainglory. . .[7]\nYet, while nature is seen as the repository of the many attributes of God, Bah\u00e1'\u00eds are not pantheists. They do not worship nature or hold it in high esteem for its own sake. The natural realm exists to serve a humanity that has as its task the carrying forward of an ever-evolving divinely ordained world order that will usher in universal peace and harmony. As such, Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that humanity must act as a wise steward of the natural realm, though neither nature nor humanity is at the core of the universal design. Rather, it is God.\nThe Environmental Challenge & Solutions\nJust as humanity, the environment and spirituality are all inter-connected, so too are the factors that have led to the environmental challenges. Speaking on behalf of the worldwide community of Bah\u00e1'\u00eds, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community (BIC) office at the United Nations issued a statement making this point in 1998:\nNone of these problems -- the debilitating inequities of development, the apocalyptic threats of atmospheric warming and ozone depletion, the oppression of women, the neglect of children and marginalized peoples, to name but a few -- can be realistically addressed without considering all the others. None can be fully addressed without a magnitude of cooperation and coordination at all levels that far surpasses anything in humanity's collective experience.[8]\nAccording to the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community, the unfettered exploitation of planetary natural resources is one symptom of a \"sickness of the human spirit\". Thus, any lasting solution to the environmental and developmental challenges will need to recognize the spiritual nature of each human, the interdependency of all humans, and their relationship with the environment. In other words, development will need to be more than simply for short-term economic advantage; it must also further and benefit the minds and spirits of all humanity.\nClearly, cooperation between all peoples, governments and agencies will be required to effect lasting solutions to the environmental challenges. However, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community points to certain trends in the world which tend to undermine the very foundations of collaboration. Among these it includes:\n. . .the widespread lack of moral discipline, the glorification of greed and material accumulation, the increasing breakdown of family and community, the rise of lawlessness and disorder, the ascendancy of racism and bigotry, and the priority given to national interests over the welfare of humanity -- all of which destroy confidence and trust, the foundations of collaboration.[9]\nIt is the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed position that only the abandonment of these destructive trends will create the necessary setting in which the spiritualization of humanity can be realized and the consequent unity and cooperation between humans can develop solutions to meet the environmental challenges.\nSuch qualities include love, compassion, forbearance, trustworthiness, courage, humility, co-operation and willingness to sacrifice for the common good -- qualities of an enlightened citizenry, able to construct a unified world civilization.[10]\nDevelopment, in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view, is an organic process in which \"the spiritual is expressed and carried out in the material.\"[11] As with the environmental challenge, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view calls for ground-up organic answers that are consistent with the development of the spirituality of all people.\nFor example, community growth and development will need to respond to the genuine need of all people to have close contact with the natural world. This will influence all aspects of development - from design and engineering to community and land-use planning. Primary among these will be the need for carefully planned maintenance of agricultural lands.\nBah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that science and technology can only provide the answers to sustainable development when they take into account the needs of the human soul. For example, there is little value in building high-efficiency vast networks of concrete roads if the style of architecture blocks sunlight, prevents people from walking and generally leaves the human being dwarfed.\nThe vast forces of science and technology must be harnessed to serve the material, intellectual, emotional and spiritual needs of the entire human family. This will require that all peoples be involved in generating scientific knowledge and determining its applications. As participation increases, technologies which have tended to desensitize and alienate, to make satisfying work and crafts redundant, to destroy the environment, and to cause sickness, infirmity or death, will, no doubt, be reconsidered, redesigned or abandoned.[12]\nStewardship, from a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed point of view means that the value of nature and its preservation cannot be expressed in sheer economic terms. A more balanced approach to sustainable development can only result when planners have a deep understanding of the significance of the natural realm in the material and spiritual development of all humanity.\nConsequently, good stewardship and prudent management of the earth's resources is not merely an \"add-on\" that is developed in response to a paucity of the resources, but rather an essential and fundamental responsibility that must be given fullest consideration at all times. Good stewardship doesn't involve \"rescuing\" nature from environmental disasters: it involves long-term planning that minimizes any possibilities of such emergencies occurring.\nMaterial development which serves solely an economic master is not a model favored by the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds. They believe the diverse peoples of the world will be more inclined to support development policies and programs based on spiritual principles and the inherent dignity of the human being. As such, they have proposed that spiritual indicators be applied to measure the value of development in terms of its impact on the spiritual, cultural and social advancement of humanity.\nThese indicators are drawn from the essential teachings of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h. For example, one of the main tenets of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith is that men and women are equal. Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that just and sustainable development will only be possible when women worldwide are welcomed as equal co-partners in every field of endeavor.\nFor Bah\u00e1'\u00eds, the commitment to the emancipation of women is not a recent development nor is equality of the sexes a vague ideal. It is our conviction that the unification of the human race depends on the establishment of the equality of men and women.[13]\nAnother of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed development indicators concerns the equitable distribution of wealth. One of the basic tenets of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith is the need to redress the extremes of wealth and poverty whereby absolute impoverishment and lavish luxury are virtually side by side. Experts tell us that there are enough resources in the world to meet the needs of all humanity. Therefore, to eliminate poverty, we will need to find more equitable methods of distribution and we will need to moderate excessive and sometimes wasteful consumption and the accumulation of wealth for its own sake. At the same time, nations will need to develop fair and equitable trade relations built on the principle that the trading partners are true equals.\nIf development is to be sustainable, the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds suggest the following:\nWealth is most commendable, provided the entire population is wealthy. If, however, a few have inordinate riches while the rest are impoverished, and no fruit or benefit accrues from that wealth, then it is only a liability to its possessor. If, on the other hand, it is expended for the promotion of knowledge, the founding of elementary and other schools, the encouragement of art and industry, the training of orphans and the poor - in brief, if it is dedicated to the welfare of society - its possessor will stand out before God and man as the most excellent of all who live on earth and will be accounted as one of the people of paradise.[14]\nUniversal education is one of the requirements that will speed the advent of a world united to promote common cause. Education that promotes a `world consciousness' and the understanding that there is an integral connection between every human being will create the conditions in which humanity is united to meet the environmental and developmental challenges.\nUnity is a prerequisite for any effort to safeguard the earth's habitat. The type of unity envisioned by the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds encompasses much more than just geography, climatology or biology. Rather, it is the outgrowth of an undying belief that humanity is one world community. In such a community, it seems only logical that matters of economic relations and sustainable development must be addressed with a balanced universal perspective that takes into account the world's many cultures and resources.\nCalling on principles enunciated in the revelation of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, whom Bah\u00e1'\u00eds regard as the messenger and prophet from God for this age of humanity, the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds of the world have proposed specific courses of action that will protect the environment and define the parameters of sustainable development. Over one hundred years ago, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h called for an international legal system, sharing of the world's resources, a re-alignment of the world's economic and governmental relations, and reform in the behavior and patterns of human consumption.\nDrawing on these teachings, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community prepared a statement for the proposed \"Earth Charter\" for the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in 1992. In the document, the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds outlined the process for achieving universally acceptable standards:\nIt is our conviction that any call to global action for environment and development must be rooted in universally accepted values and principles. Similarly, the search for solutions to the world's grave environmental and developmental problems must go beyond technical-utilitarian proposals and address the underlying causes of the crisis. Genuine solutions, in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view, will require a globally accepted vision for the future, based on unity and willing cooperation among the nations, races, creeds, and classes of the human family. Commitment to a higher moral standard, equality between the sexes, and the development of consultative skills for the effective functioning of groups at all levels of society will be essential.[15]\nThey proposed that representatives of the world's religions be assembled, possibly under the auspices of the World Bank or the United Nations Development Program, to consult about spiritual principles and their impact on both the individual and the progress of society.[16] Such an assemblage, the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe, could reach common agreement on a limited number of spiritual principles and how these would provide a basis for developing policy priorities. Based on this agreement, goals and benchmarks for progress would be established and monitored by the organization under whose auspices the assemblage is convened.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that the world religions can take the initiative and collaborate because of the common thread that unites all of the world's major religious traditions.\nThe changes required to reorient the world toward a sustainable future imply degrees of sacrifice, social integration, selfless action, and unity of purpose rarely achieved in human history. These qualities have reached their highest degree of development through the power of religion. Therefore, the world's religious communities have a major role to play in inspiring these qualities in their members, releasing latent capacities of the human spirit and empowering individuals to act on behalf of the planet, its peoples, and future generations.[17]\nFurthermore, the cooperation of an international development agency would signal their recognition of the significance of the spiritual dimension of human nature. Already the internationally accepted Agenda 21 and The Habitat Agenda have acknowledged that the spiritual needs of the individual and of society are significant factors in human progress and are inseparable from ecological, economic, social, and cultural development.\nThe next step would involve the development of consultative processes on both the national and local levels whereby communities would be encouraged to utilize and develop their own independent spiritual measures for action, derived from the larger plan. Such plans and policies would likely have the backing of many and would receive the formalized support of religious authorities and institutions.\nIn a reflection of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed administrative order which has no clergy but devolves responsibility on each individual right down to the local community, the Faith stresses the importance of local action in any initiatives.\nDevelopment must be decentralized in order to involve communities in formulating and implementing the decisions and programs that affect their lives. Such a decentralization need not conflict with a global system and strategy, but would in fact ensure that developmental processes are adapted to the planet's rich cultural, geographic, and ecological diversity.[18]\nBah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that the individual has a key role in the unfolding of a planetary system of sustainable development. Therefore, acknowledging the spiritual dimension of humanity and providing for the moral, emotional, physical and intellectual development and education of each person will be a building block toward a new vision of planetary society.\nTo meet the environmental and development challenges, Bah\u00e1'\u00eds affirm that the top-down model of community development will need to give way to a more participatory, knowledge-based and values-driven process of governance. When people view the decision-making process as something they own - not as a remote and Byzantine system of laws - they will accept their responsibility for shaping a new world.\nAt the very core of the environmental and developmental crises facing humanity, Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe, there is a lack of moral leadership that pervades every level of decision making - from the highest levels of government to the family unit itself. This is evidenced by the constant discovery of political scandals that reveal a bankruptcy of real ethical leadership. Humanity may have even lost its ability to define and identify morality in leadership because of the barrage of messages that obfuscate and confuse the issue.\nWhile the world's religions, development organizations, governments and individuals are all called upon to play a role in sustainable development, long-term solutions will require a new and integrated vision of global society. This vision, will have as its underpinnings and its charter, a new set of values based on the belief that all of humanity is one. For Bah\u00e1'\u00eds, the very bedrock and hope for a sustainable new world order is the acceptance of the oneness of humanity. This principle will cause the restructuring of the world's administration to reflect the fact that the world is one nation. This does not mean that any culture or nation must abandon its distinctive identity. In fact, the entire principle of unity in diversity, which the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith champions, supports and actively encourages each people's right to maintain, protect and uphold their distinctiveness in the face of the homogenizing influences of international capital.\nIn the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed view, world unity is not mutually exclusive of cultural diversity and national autonomy. Each person can legitimately have a balanced sense of pride in his or her culture and national identity. However, every person is called to a broader notion of loyalty: the uplifting and progress of the human soul, of every human being and the entire world civilization. The Bah\u00e1'\u00ed approach emphasizes that the world is one nation and it calls for a universal auxiliary language, which may in the future prove to be English. The yet-to-be-determined auxiliary language will facilitate inter-cultural communication and will not replace peoples' own mother tongues. Each individual maintains the right to preserve his or her cultural identity and mother tongue.\nIn the view of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community, acceptance of the oneness of humanity is the first fundamental prerequisite for this reorganization and administration of the world as one country, the home of humankind. Recognition of this principle does not imply abandonment of legitimate loyalties, the suppression of cultural diversity, or the abolition of national autonomy. It calls for a wider loyalty, for a far higher aspiration than has so far animated human efforts. It clearly requires the subordination of national impulses and interests to the imperative claims of a unified world. It is inconsistent not only with any attempt to impose uniformity, but with any tendency towards excessive centralization. Its goal is well captured in the concept of \"unity in diversity.\"[19]\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community believes that the change in consciousness that would be represented by the adoption of the term \"world citizenship\" is a prerequisite before the peoples of the planet can accept and promote a coordinated and reasonable approach to global sustainable development. The entire idea of world citizenship can only take hold when one accepts the inter-relatedness of all human beings, of the impact of their actions upon each other. It means that the world is no longer constituted of billions of discrete beings and scores of disconnected governments and trans-national corporations. With the advent of world citizenship, each accepts that his or her actions in any part of the globe is likely to have impacts well beyond the local or regional spheres of influence.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed understanding of the implications of world citizenship extend beyond simply a new passport or slogans:\nWorld citizenship encompasses the principles of social and economic justice, both within and between nations; non-adversarial decision making at all levels of society; equality of the sexes; racial, ethnic, national and religious harmony; and the willingness to sacrifice for the common good.[20]\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community says that the most effective method for promoting sustainable development is logically through adoption of world citizenship. They reason that the full meaning and import of world citizenship will have an impact on the way nations conduct themselves with each other. When humanity and its economic, social, and political orders are preoccupied with disunity, antagonism and rigid provincialism, the Bah\u00e1'\u00eds submit there is no room for a concerted worldwide strategy on sustainable development. In other words, any effort to realize sustainable development can only be marginally successful without the animating principles of world citizenship and one world homeland. The prerequisites clearly call for harmony and unity amongst all the peoples and nations of the world.\nIn a paper entitled World citizenship: A Global Ethic for Sustainable Development, presented to the 1st session of the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development, 14-25 June 1993, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community reflected at length on the necessary first step of establishing the concept of world citizenship. They went so far as to lay out a plan for its introduction and the requisite actions of the world leaders.\nThey should foster an ethic of service to the common good and convey an understanding of both the rights and the responsibilities of world citizenship.\nUsing the concept of world citizenship as an integrating theme, the United Nations should publicize its ideals, activities and goals, so that people come to understand the unique and vital role the UN plays in the world and, therefore, in their lives. Similarly, the UN should promote world citizenship in all its public activities, including celebrations of its historical milestones and tours of UN headquarters. Every UN document that deals with sustainable development should also include this principle -- beginning with the preamble of the proposed Earth Charter. World citizenship must become the single most important point of ethical reference in all UN activities.\nThe services of the advertising industry should be enlisted to promote world citizenship.[21]\nThe Promise of a Better Future\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00eds believe that there are dual processes at work in the world: the one best characterized as spiritualizing, embryonic, and beneficial to humanity; the other is the decaying and destruction of institutions and ways of thinking that no longer serve an evolving worldwide civilization.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00eds are optimistic that humanity will survive the serious environment challenges and development issues facing it. They believe that the covenant God made with Abraham and Noah and has renewed with every Messenger sent to humanity is evidence of the long-term viability of humanity. This does not, however, allow humanity to abdicate its stewardship responsibilities nor the huge commitment to persevere and make sacrifices and changes that will transform the world. Shoghi Effendi looked forward to this renewal of civilization:\nIn such a world society... [t]he economic resources of the world will be organized, its sources of raw materials will be tapped and fully utilized, its markets will be coordinated and developed, and the distribution of its products will be equitably regulated ...The enormous energy dissipated and wasted on war, whether economic or political, will be consecrated to such ends as will extend the range of human inventions and technical development, to the increase of the productivity of mankind, to the extermination of disease, to the extension of scientific research, to the raising of the standard of physical health, to the sharpening and refinement of the human brain, to the exploitation of the unused and unsuspected resources of the planet, to the prolongation of human life and to the furtherance of any other agency that can stimulate the intellectual, the moral and spiritual life of the entire human race.[22]\nAccording to the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community, it is the actions of governments, non-governmental organizations, the forces of capital, society in general, and significant individuals that will determine how quickly humanity arrives at a universal consensus for sustainable development. The onus is on every party to consciously and deliberately give a thorough evaluation to the meaning of the goals toward which they are working. This will ensure that all parties can be effective partners in progress. The Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community says that \"clear goals, meaningful policies and standards, identified programs, and agreed upon indicators of progress are necessary if advancement toward humanity's common future is to be charted and regular corrections to that course determined and carried out.\"[23]\nBah\u00e1'\u00ed Action on Sustainable Development\nRepresenting the world's Bah\u00e1'\u00eds, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community office at the United Nations has played a prominent role in the various UN-sponsored summits on the environment and sustainable development. Exemplary among these, was the participation of The Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community in the Earth Summit - the Rio de Janeiro Conference in June 1992.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00eds focused on the Earth Charter which they felt was potentially the most significant document under consideration at Rio de Janeiro. In numerous languages they circulated nearly one million copies of the environmental and development statements of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community. In the opening paragraph of its presentation to a preparatory working group of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community wrote of the Charter:\nIt could offer a unifying vision for the future and articulate the values upon which a peaceful, prosperous and harmonious world society could practically be constructed. In so doing, the Earth Charter could lift the context of deliberations on humanity's future to a new level -- to the level of principle. Only discourse at the level of principle has the power to invoke a moral commitment, which will, in turn, make possible the discovery of enduring solutions to the many challenges confronting a rapidly integrating human society. . . . the Earth Charter can tap a powerful source of individual and collective motivation, which will be essential for the reorientation of the world toward a sustainable future.[24]\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed presentation to UNCED urged that the idea of the \"oneness of humanity\" should be proclaimed in the preamble to the Charter, which should then be taught in the world's schools and communicated worldwide in preparation for \"the organic change in the structure of society which it implies.\"[25]\nIn fact, the landmark Peace Monument unveiled at the conclusion of the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro was an initiative of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community. At the Summit's closing ceremony, soil from some 40 nations was deposited into the striking five-meter high monument by children. Each year since the Summit, World Environment Day in Rio includes a ceremony at the monument during which soil from other nations is added. The inscription on the monument are the words of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h: \"The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens.\"\nBoth Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities and individual Bah\u00e1'\u00eds are in the forefront of activities aimed at furthering preservation and sustainable development. Here is a small sample of projects Bah\u00e1'\u00eds are involved with worldwide:\nThe establishment of a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Office of the Environment as an adjunct of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community office at the United Nations.\nIssuing a 1989 compilation of Bah\u00e1'\u00ed writings - Conservation of the Earth's Resources. The text has been studied by Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities worldwide.\nNumerous national and local Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities have established their own environmental offices and committees, often in cooperation with like-minded organizations. In Japan, Canada, Brazil, Taiwan, Colombia, Philippines and other nations, Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities have established curricula for education about the environment.\nNur University in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, an institution of higher learning established on Bah\u00e1'\u00ed principles, offers a Masters degree in Development.\nA range of publications dealing with environmental and developmental issues is now published by Bah\u00e1'\u00eds. This includes: One Country, a quarterly newsletter of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community; Ecologia Y Unidad Mundial, an Argentine Bah\u00e1'\u00ed newspaper; and others.\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Vocational Institute for Rural Women, located in India and the Clean and Beautiful Swaziland campaign founded by a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed - Dr.Irma Allen - both received Global 500 Awards from the United Nations Environment Program.\nAn organic farming project by the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed community of Japan teaches how to grow food without artificial fertilizers or pesticides.\nIn rural Kenya, a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed-sponsored development project encourages and empowers village women to develop their own entrepreneurial weaving businesses.\nIn Bolivia and Malaysia, Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities have launched fish farming projects.\nBah\u00e1'\u00eds in the United Kingdom, the Philippines, Singapore and Taiwan have all organized and/or sponsored arts and educational activities geared to creating awareness of the fragile environment and conservation.\nLocal Bah\u00e1'\u00ed communities in the UK have become active proponents of Local Agenda 21 , working with partner groups and with local authorities.\nWorking in collaboration with other organizations, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community hosted two World Forestry Charter Gatherings (1989 & 1994).\nThe Bah\u00e1'\u00ed International Community made a formal presentation to the \"World Faiths and Development Dialogue\" hosted by the President of the World Bank and the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth Palace during the Lambeth Conference, February 1998.\nFinally, as if to address directly the very issue of environmental biodiversity and sustainable growth, the architecture and landscaping of each of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Holy Sites around the world is a model of the blending of natural and architectural beauty, efficiency and diversity. Each of these sites features a diverse range of flora to reflect the Faith's teachings about diversity and the buildings are designed to complement and augment their surroundings.\n[1] Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h.

        "raw_content": "9 children and their parents rescued from bonded labour in a farm in Ramanagara\nSix of the children aged four to twelve years worked on the farm looking after the cows and goats\nA family of 9 children and their parents have been rescued from bonded labour and human trafficking in a farm in Marlawadi Village, Kanakapura, Ramanagara District by the Ramanagara District Administration, Labour Department and the Harohalli Police. The family was trafficked from Denkanaikottai, Krishnagiri District, Tamil Nadu and was living and working on the farm for four years.\nAn FIR (195/18) has been registered at the Harohalli Police Station under section 370 of the IPC (Trafficking of Persons), sections 16, 17, 18 of the Bonded Labour System (Abolition) Act, 1976 and sections of the Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Amendment Act, 2016. The police are on the lookout for the owner.\nSix of the nine children, ranging from 4 to 17 years worked from 10 am to 6 pm everyday taking care of 20 goats and 15 cows, grazing, feeding and milking them. The husband and wife worked from 4:00 am till 7:00 pm daily taking care of the agriculture work on the farm, growing tomatoes and bananas.\nAccording to the statements by the couple, the last two children aged 10 months and two years were born on the farm and delivered by the husband as they were not permitted to go to the hospital. The children have had no access to any medical facilities. They have never received any vaccinations, not even the basic vaccination for polio. None of the children have received any education at all.\nIn four years the family was never allowed to go outside the farm together or visit their home village. Only the husband, aged around 40, was allowed to go to shops near the farm to buy provisions for the family. \u201cSeveral times I told the owner I want to leave and put my children in school but he abused us and said it\u2019s not needed. He used to always abuse us using vulgar words saying we are not working well even though we worked from 4:00 am till 7:00 pm on all seven days. When my wife\u2019s brother passed away, we asked permission to go back to our village for the funeral but he did not allow us. He said let the dying die why should you go? In the last four years we have never gone back to our village as a family,\u201d he says.\nLast year his mother passed away in his home village but the owner refused to let him go immediately. After repeated requests the owner only let him go but did not give him any bus fare. He had to finally walk to his village and by the time he managed to reach his mother, she was already buried.\nThe family was exploited and worked all seven days a week. When they were first brought to the farm four years ago by a person known to the owner, they were promised Rs. 65,000 a year as advance. However, this was a false promise and when they first arrived the owner gave them only Rs 20,000 as an advance and thereafter no advance was given in the following years.\nAfter the initial advance, the whole family only received Rs 1,000 \u2013 Rs 2,000 a month for their sustenance. The entire family of 11 had to manage all their daily expenses including food with this meagre wage. The prescribed minimum wage for an agricultural estate worker in Karnataka begins at Rs. 304 per person per day. However, these labourers were paid way below this wage.\nThe District Administration is conducting further enquires with the survivors and will be issuing them release certificates before their repatriation to Tamil Nadu. The Administration is also coordinating with the collector\u2019s office in Tamil Nadu to receive the survivors upon their arrival and for further rehabilitation.",

        "raw_content": "Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, by Lanie Robertson. Directed by Dina Janis. Reviewed by J. Peter Bergman.\nMarinda Anderson; photo: Taylor Crichton\n\"The impossible will take a little while.\"\nMarinda Anderson and Kenney M. Green; photo: Taylor Crichton\nLiving out your own life fantasies on stage is not just for actors, but for singers as well. Living through the awful parts and coming out the other side able to sing a song whose sweetness transports both your listener and yourself from despair to delight is a very special form for jazz singers. Eleanora Fagan Gough, born on April 7, 1915 in Philadelphia and known professionally as Billie Holiday was one of those lucky ones. Sadly she was also the unluckiest lady in the business. She died at age 49 from problems related to drug and alcohol abuse just three years after her remarkable autobiography, \"Lady Sings the Blues,\"was published in 1956 and shortly after appearing at a small club in the city of her birth, Emerson's Bar & Grill.\nIn the play by Lanie Robertson, set in that South Philly nightclub, Miss Holiday gives the performance of her lifetime, performing the story of her lifetime for an audience that really doesn't care about her history. They've come for the music and in spite of themselves, they come to love the Lady Day, her nickname, for every poor choice, for every sour note in her life. We are the audience, not just for a play about this, but for the singer in that club so long ago. We play our part just like she plays hers. In this instance, under the demanding direction of Dina Janis, the \"she\" in the story is the actress Marinda Anderson portraying Billie near the end of her nights of stardom.\nMarinda Anderson looks a lot like Billie at this stage in her life. She doesn't really sound like her, but we get the idea because she does move into the singer's own personal style of presentation and that, ultimately, is enough. This isn't an actor mimicing another person. This is an actress handing us that person on a copper platter with its plating wearing off in spots. Baser metals are the substance here and in songs like \"Easy Livin'\" and \"T'aint Nobody's Biz-ness,\" and \"Strange Fruit,\" so quintessentially Lady Day, we watch the patina fade off the presence of the heroine of this tale revealing all of her flaws and all of the factors that made her so very special.\nShe is supported by Kenney M. Green at the piano in the role of Jimmy Powers, jazz musician, accompanist, chauffeur, protector and friend of Lady Day. Green plays one mean piano and his solos are delicious. He stands for her, rallies her, lifts her up with his music and with his strong arms. When her own heroin habit threatens to take her down before our eyes he is there to cradle her and bring her back to the microphone center stage. He is, perhaps, the first man in her life to be supportive and not abusive. Green plays all of this with ease and charm and a naturalness that helps with the illusion we need to see the truth. Mr. Green, one should say, as Mr. Powers, is a champion and player of great power.\nAs for Ms. Anderson, seen on this stage in \"Intimate Apparel,\" by Lynn Nottage last summer she is fulfilling the promise seen in her work back then. I wrote in 2015 \"Now and again I wish for regional TONY Awards so that an actress of this calibre could be honored for outstanding work; this is one of those times.\" This is another. She has grown immensely in her power to communicate the emotional pangs of glory lost. She has become the actress she needed to be with this play. She has the power to recreate the living in their own fullness of being. She is the earth-mother, the Goddess, the stricken woman whose sickness cannot be contained in only one body, only one soul. It was Holiday's extreme power to communicate all of this that is transforming the actress playing her here. The playwright's choices for this appearance of Lady Day, are secure in the graceful fingers, the tortured body, of this actress bringing the singer back to life for us, the singer's audience.\nI like magic in my theater and this production gives me the magic lost in other place and other times. I am its recipient and its appreciator. I am grateful for this gift of magic in the music and in the deteriorating hull that contains all of its precious gems.\nLady Day, Miss Billie Holiday\nDirector Dina Janis displays an acute understanding of Holiday's problems and a deeper acuity for moving her actress into and out of the best and worst of the singing star's personality. In spite of the vocal differences, there is never a question in mind that this woman is Billie Holiday. Janis has clearly given the actress scope to create her own Billie. She has equally clearly been there the whole way to keep her Billie and never Marinda. There are no failures here, no moments of the actress betraying her character to rally as herself and gather strength. Instead there is the constant deterioration of a human soul in this performance and that is due, in no small part, to the excellent teaming of actress and director.\nOn the small stage of Emerson's Bar & Grill, designed by Alexander Woodward, Billie Holiday, dressed sumptuously by Tracy Christensen, Miss Holiday gives us her all with her key light shining and her mood lighting stunning the story out of her mind, all illumination designed by Michael Giannitti, this is as perfect a production, as keen a realization, as any I've seen and ever will see. Not only should the playwright be satisfied, but Lady Day herself should be nodding her head, musically, and rhythmically, to the excellence on the stage at the Dorset Playhouse.\nI know how this play works. I've seen it several times before. This time, though, there is no play on stage, there is only life playing itself out before us. While I may like magic, I love life. I love this production.\nLady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill plays at the Dorset Theatre Festival, 104 Cheney Road, Dorset, Vermont through September 3.

        "title": "Comet Machholz: A sign that Christ will sit enthroned.",
        "raw_content": "Sign of the Comet\nComet Machholz is now the fifth naked eye comet in 2004. Twice before, in 1911 and again in 1970, four comets managed to reach naked-eye brightness within a single calendar year. But this year we have five!\nBelow is the comet that will reach its peak on Jan. 7, 2005. (This is Christmas according to the Russian Orthodox Church.) (Also see the greatest solar flare ever recorded, which occurred 430 days prior, [Ezek. 4].) The comet is the brightest in about seven years, and one of five naked-eye comets to appear in 2004. (No other year between 1900 and 2000 has seen so many comets in one year.) However, its location at its brightest point is what makes it highly symbolic. This is because the comet attains its peak brightness as it approaches the \"Pleiades\" star cluster in its nightly north-bound progression and ascension, (Eph. 4:8-10). (\"Pleiades\" is mentioned three times in the Bible, [Job 9:9; 38:31; Amos 5:8], and has rich symbolic meaning as we shall see.)\nThe comet begins at the lowest spot in the heavens, the river of judgment (Eridanus), and ascends to the highest heavens---towards the North Star.\n(Eph. 4:8-10) \"Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men. (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.)\"\nBelievers in Jesus the Messiah are the \"captives\" that will ascend with Him!\nTwo days after the above mentioned \"greatest solar flare on record,\" I had a dream. In the dream I saw that the enemies of Christ had formed about seven stars that in turn formed a throne. Then the Lord beckoned the overcomer to sit down on it even as He had sat down. That morning I saw the front page of our newspapers which showed our prime minister being awarded the throne-chair for having served the country 8 years. (But did he serve God?) He held it above his head into the heavens, just as in the dream. Then I knew of certainty that it had been a dream from God. I also understood at that time that the stars represented the Pleiades star cluster. I was reminded of Joseph's dream about the 11 stars (i.e., his brothers) bowing down to him, (Genesis 37:9). Read the very last words given to the seven churches. (The churches are called \"The Seven Lampstands.\" According to Jewish tradition, Pleiades is also said to depict the seven-branched lampstand .)\n(Rev. 3:21-22) \"He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.\"\nMovie showing path of comet\nUpdate: Another series of powerful solar flares occurred from Jan. 15 to 20, 2005, as the comet was yet visible in the sky. A class X-7 flare on the 20th emitted the strongest radiation burst to actually hit earth in almost 50 years that struck earth at a \"strange\" speed \"frightening fast.\" The sunspot (#720) formed unusually fast from Jan. 10 to 15th. The flare and the comet are following a numeric pattern with plus and minus 7 days from the day (Jan. 8) that symbolized the \"year\" Jacob died, but about this we cannot elaborate now. Jacobs death, in turn, relates back to the acrostic bible code prophecy given by Jacob at his deathbed. (Also see, The tsunami and bible prophecy numbers discussed below.)\nMore on the Comet\nPleiades (Job 9:9; 38:31; Amos 5:8), a cluster of seven stars, denotes the seven-branched menorah in Jewish tradition. (It is also known as, \"The Seven Sisters.\") In the Balance Bible Code, this image (put out half a year ago) depicts a scepter (like a club) running along the River of Judgment (\"Eridanus,\" which is where the comet originated) and also through the Menorah of Judgment (\"Pleiades\"). (See image below.)\nNote the prophecy of Balaam. There the \"star\" (comet) is given in parallel to the \"staff,\" which is used as club against Esau (Edom and Seir), just as in the picture-code. (The glittering scepter in the picture-code reads: [\"A glittering scepter.\"] \"I am Jesus. A blessed Lamp and an appointed King. Did He fall short of the Father? (No!)\"\nNum 24:15 And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor saith, And the man whose eye was closed saith;\nNum 24:16 He saith, who heareth the words of God, And knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, Who seeth the vision of the Almighty, Falling down, and having his eyes open:\nNum 24:17 I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh: There shall come forth a star out of Jacob, And a sceptre shall rise out of Israel, And shall smite through the corners of Moab, And break down all the sons of tumult.\nNum 24:18-19 And Edom (Esau's descendants) shall be a possession, Seir (Esau's descendants) also shall be a possession, who were his enemies; While Israel doeth valiantly. And out of Jacob shall one have dominion, And shall destroy the remnant from the city.\nAlso see (below) Jacob's Acrostic-Bible-Code prophecy\nput on the Net in November of 2004.\nUpdate: Comet Pojmanski\nThe next comet after the one during the tsunami was Comet Pojmanski. (It was seen in late February of 2006 with the naked eye, and was closest to the sun on March 5, 2006.) Comet Pojmanski was about 430 days after the time of the Tsunami and as far as I know there were no naked-eye comets in between that time. That comet peaked on Jan. 7, 2005. This means that those two comets very roughly span the 430 days between the symbolic dates of 1876 and 1446 BC as discussed earlier, and both were visible to the naked eye on those symbolic day-year dates.\nAlso see: The Timing of Arafat's Death (Discuses the above in greater numeric detail.)\nNote: While astrology is forbidden in the bible (Isaiah 47:13), nevertheless we are told to watch the heavens for signs that herald Christ's return, (Luke 21:24-28).\nSee also Yasser Arafat: \"The Father of Modern Terrorism\" and 9/11\nAnd, Arafat the Bull (Pg 2 -3- -4-)",

        "raw_content": "Organization, a Logical Requirement\nThe Church, A Monarchy\nChurches Of Christ Are Autonomous\nElders In Each Church\nWhat Are The Functions Of Elders?\nCongregational Responsibility\nDeacons In The Church\nThe Full Leadership\nTo function properly, every group of persons, small or large, must be organized. Even the husband and wife \"group\" (just two persons) must be organized, if harmony is to prevail. It should come as no surprise that God should deem it appropriate to organize the Church of Christ.\nThe Church of Christ, committed as it is to the restoration plea (which seeks to restore the God-given plan for the church), maintains the same organization as that which characterized the church in New Testament days.\nThe determination to maintain that organization grows out of a realization that no man, nor group of men, has ever been granted authority to rule over the church, except in that manner described in the New Testament.\nThe Apostle Paul said, \"He (Jesus) is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything\" (Colossians 1:18). The Church of Christ has never had but one head---Jesus. Jesus is the King of the church.\nThe word autonomous simply means that each local church, or congregation, is self-governed, that each is an independent organization, subject only to the headship of Christ and the word of God.\nIn New Testament days there was no hierarchy, no governing body which cared for the needs of the various Churches of Christ. The various congregations all together constituted the \"one body\" (Ephesians 4:4), but each was independent in the directing of its own work.\nActs 14:23 informs us that \"they had appointed... elders in every church.\" Again, in Titus 1:5, Paul says, \"For this reason I left you in Crete, that you might set in order what remains, and appoint elders in every city as I directed you.\nThere are some six words in the New Testament which all describe the same work. The Greek word Episcopos is translated as bishop and as overseer (Acts 20:28; Phillipians 1:1; I Timothy 3:1). The word Presbuteros is translated presbyter and elder (Acts 14:23; I Timothy 5:1, 17; Titus 1:5; I Timothy 4:14). The word Poimeen is translated pastor and shepherd (Ephesians 4:11; I Peter 2:25; I Peter 5:1,2).\nThe very names so used indicate something of their work, their responsibilities, their character. They were to be older men (elders). They were to shepherd or pastor the flock (the church). They were to oversee or keep watch over the souls of Christians (Hebrews 13:17), and exercise oversight (I Peter 5:2).\nIn the Church of Christ today we have elders who function in the same way that they functioned in New Testament days. We have no hierarchy of any kind, but rather we have elders who carry out the same work as did elders of the first century church.\nThe qualifications for elders are clearly laid out in I Timothy 3:1-7 and in Titus 1:6-9. All too frequently the work of an elder has been given to men who have not been qualified, and the church suffers when this happens. This work was intended by God to be given to older men, not newcomers to the faith, who by reason of age and experience have qualified themselves to be elders. They are married men who have reared their children in such a manner that the children have likewise become Christians. They are men of grave and sober thinking who have conducted their lives in such a manner as to be above reproach.\nThe church is commanded to \"...appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction, and that you esteem them very highly in love because of their work\" (I Thessalonians 5:12, 13). Again, the church is commanded to \"Obey your leaders, and submit to them\" (Hebrews 13:17).\nIn the first century church, deacons were not considered as co-elders, nor a part of what is erroneously called the church board. The word which is translated deacon is from a word which is also translated as minister or servant. Their work was that of helping or serving in the various works that had to be done in the church.\nWhile deacons were never given the responsibility of overseeing the work of the church (such was the responsibility of the elders), they were nevertheless given the work of carrying out tasks to which they were appointed. As churches grow in size, the various works of those churches grow. Good men can be placed in charge of the various activities of the church. It is in keeping with New Testament practice that Churches of Christ today appoint qualified men to care for these works.\nThe qualifications for the men who are to be appointed as deacons are recorded in I Timothy 3:8-12. These men also are required to be men of dignity, family men who are capable of managing their families well. Because they are not appointed as overseers, there is no mandate for them to have reared their children to the point where they have become Christians, as is true of men who would be elders. Men with younger children could well qualify to be deacons, if indeed they are able to control their children. The scriptures demand that men who would be appointed as deacons shall be men of good reputation. Basically, the scriptures which deal with these qualifications are simply saying that they should be good men, men of integrity, men who have devoted themselves to the cause of Christ. To be other than that would cast a negative reflection upon the church of our Lord.\nIn Ephesians 4:11, Paul gives the full leadership of the church---apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. The works of the apostles and prophets were limited to the first century, but we have their works recorded for us in the New Testament. Evangelists (preachers of the gospel) do not govern the affairs of the church. They are subject to the elders, as are all members of the church. Their particular work is that of proclaiming the gospel. Pastors (elders) are given the responsibility of \"ruling\" the church. Teachers assist the elders in the educational work of the church.\nThe Church of Christ has a simple organization, but this divine plan has no equal. Every attempt to improve upon it has resulted in apostasy.\nScripture taken from the NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE, \ufffd 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977 by THE LOCKMAN FOUNDATION.

        "raw_content": "Reba McEntire Sends Holiday Greetings From \u2018Malibu Country\u2019 Set\nReba McEntire's new hit sitcom 'Malibu Country' didn't air a new episode this past Friday. Instead, it was a repeat of the pilot, given that we're in the thick of the holiday season and that sort of programming. The singer and actress still took time out of her busy schedule to send holiday greetings from the set to the show's viewers and to her fans.\nReba shared the 30-second greeting via Twitter. She is seated on the arm of the green couch in her character's living room. Obviously, she has reason to celebrate this holiday season, since her series is doing so well and is beloved by her fans. We actually appreciate the simplicity in this clip. We're glad that the singer/actress didn't dress up as Santa Claus or turn in a funny greeting that falls in line with the show. This approach was streamlined and more effective.\n\"I wanted to tell you how much fun we're having doing the show and thank y'all for joining us in this adventure,\" Reba said. \"We are having a blast and we look forward to many more shows that we tape next year and we hope that you join us for those, too.\"\nShe also wished viewers and fans a happy holiday season and lead the off-camera cast and crew in doing the same.\nBe sure and tune in for more 'Malibu Country' in 2013.\nSource: Reba McEntire Sends Holiday Greetings From \u2018Malibu Country\u2019 Set",

        "raw_content": "UMPI Receives High Rankings From U.S. News and World Report\nThe University of Maine at Presque Isle has earned four top rankings on U.S. News and World Report\u2019s 2015 Best Colleges list.\nIn this year\u2019s annual rankings, UMPI was named among the 50 Best Regional Colleges in the North, the 15 Top Public Schools in the North, the top 10 Regional Colleges in the North for graduates with least debt, and the top 20 Best Regional Colleges in the North for Veterans.\n\u201cWe are delighted to again be recognized in U.S. News and World Report\u2019s Best Colleges List and are very honored to have received four rankings for the hard work we do as an institution to provide a high quality and low cost education for our students,\u201d UMPI President Linda Schott said. \u201cWe\u2019re dedicated to offering an education that puts the student first\u2014both in terms of personalized learning where they have a voice and choice in what and how they learn, and in terms of affordability through excellent financial aid opportunities and low tuition.\u201d\nIn the publication's Best Regional Colleges in the North ranking, UMPI was listed as #46, earning it first tier status. The ranking defines regional colleges as schools that focus on undergraduate education but grant fewer than half their degrees in liberal arts disciplines. The north region includes Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland.\nUMPI was listed as #15 in the Top Public Schools ranking list for Regional Colleges in the North. The ranking defines public colleges and universities as those that are typically operated under the supervision of state governments and funded, in part, by tax dollars and subsidies from the state. Such universities often offer free or discounted tuition to students considered residents of the state.\nIn its third ranking, the University was short-listed among Regional Colleges in the North for graduates with the least debt. U.S. News compiled a list of schools whose Class of 2013 graduated with the lightest debt load. The data included loans taken out by students from their colleges, from private financial institutions, and from federal, state, and local governments. UMPI came in at #7 after the United States Coast Guard Academy (CT), United States Merchant Marine Academy (NY), Dean College (MA), Cooper Union (NY), Fisher College (MA), and Farmingdale State College-SUNY (NY).\nGarnering its fourth top ranking, UMPI was #16 in the Best Colleges for Veterans among Regional Colleges in the North listing. This ranking spotlights institutions that are helping veterans to pursue a college education under the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Specifically, this list recognizes schools that participate in federal initiatives to help veterans and active service members apply, pay for and complete their degrees.\nU.S. News and World Report has published its Best Colleges rankings since 1983. According to its website, the rankings provide an excellent starting point for families searching for the best academic value for their money and allow them to compare, at a glance, the relative quality of institutions based on such widely accepted indicators of excellence as freshman retention and graduation rates and the strength of the faculty.\nFiled Under: UMPI",

        "title": "Spots for Grabs: Portugal\u2019s Provisional Squad \u2013 bigsoccerhead",
        "raw_content": "Spots for Grabs: Portugal\u2019s Provisional Squad\nSurprising may be too strong a word, but Portugal\u2019s provisional World Cup squad certainly has its peculiarities.\nGone are some of Paulo Bento\u2019s regular \u201creserve\u201d call-ups, such as Danny (Zenit) and Ruben Micael (Braga), and in their stead the manager has injected some \u201cnew blood\u201d into the team.\nTo the cynic, Bento\u2019s selection could suggest that the Portuguese already has his eye on the next European Championships \u2013 not an entirely outlandish notion given the his recent contract extension with the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) \u2013 however, if anything, Portugal\u2019s provisional squad hints at the fact that there are a lot more roster spots up for grabs than people might think.\nWhile most national team managers are mulling over the last three or four players that will complete their final twenty-three-man roster, Bento could realistically be auditioning up to ten players for six potential slots, with every sector open to some change.\nIn goal, the only confirmed spots belong to Rui Patricio and Beto. Patricio has been the first choice keeper for most of Bento\u2019s tenure, but Beto\u2019s form with Europa League winners, Sevilla, could force Sporting\u2019s captain to the bench.\nThe battle for the last seat on the plane to Brazil will be between Lyon\u2019s Anthony Lopes, and Braga\u2019s Eduardo. The French-born Lopes has impressed when called upon to defend Lyon\u2019s nets, and is considered by some to be a real challenger to Patricio in the future. Eduardo is a well-traveled veteran whose career with the national team took a dip after an unsuccessful loan spell with Benfica during the 2011-2012 season. Eduardo\u2019s experience, which includes a stellar performance in South Africa, should give him the slight edge over Lopes.\nAdvantage: Eduardo\nAt the back, only Jo\u00e3o Pereira, Fabio Coentr\u00e3o, Pepe, Bruno Alves, and Luis Neto, have their World Cup presence guaranteed. Taking into account that Bento will most likely take four center-backs and three full-backs to Brazil, four players will be competing for the last two spots. Ricardo Costa and Rolando have a fairly even contest at center-back. Costa was one of the few consistent performers for Valencia when the Spanish club was struggling at the beginning of the season, and his performances have only improved under new manager Juan Antonio Pizzi. Rolando has finally found a home in Italy \u2013 first with Napoli and now with Inter, after a turbulent last season at FC Porto, which put his international career in jeopardy. Both players ended the season in good form, but Costa\u2019s ability to play as a right-back in a pinch could be the deciding factor.\nAdvantage: Ricardo Costa\nVitorino Antunes should start the Portuguese camp with a slight advantage over Andr\u00e9 Almeida for the last full-back position. The lefty has cemented his place at Malaga where his consistency, solid defending, and attacking prowess have endeared him to the La Rosaleda faithful. Interestingly, when Fabio Coentr\u00e3o\u2019s club form began to dip, there was some talk that Antunes could have usurped the Real Madrid player, who has often been criticized for his lapses in concentration. The younger Almeida is only now beginning to assert himself at Benfica after figuring prominently with Belenenses and Portugal\u2019s U21 team. While Antunes is strictly a left-back who can sometimes occupy a role a little further up field, Almeida can figure at either full-back position, and is comfortable playing as a holding midfielder. Almeida\u2019s utility-man status, which was on display in the Europa League final against Sevilla, will certainly give Bento something to think about, especially if the manager is considering taking an extra wing attacker to Brazil in lieu of a center-midfielder.\nAdvantage: Andre Almeida\nThe center of Portugal\u2019s midfield is the team\u2019s most predictable sector. Bento has rarely strayed from his preferred 433, which has more often than not featured Miguel Veloso as the anchor-man in the inverted triangle, along with Jo\u00e3o Moutinho and Raul Meireles. Those three will more than likely be among the first eleven picked to face Germany in the first game of Group G. William Carvalho\u2019s meteoric rise at Sporting has also all but guaranteed his inclusion in the twenty-three, leaving one definite opening \u2013 possibly two \u2013 up for grabs.\nRuben Amorim is surely ahead of the competition since he has been one of Bento\u2019s regular call-ups for some time. Additionally, the Benfica man can play anywhere in Portugal\u2019s inverted triangle, although he\u2019s more adept at sitting deeper. His club teammate, Andr\u00e9 Gomes, though more physically imposing, is a similar player, who likes to sit in front of the back four and propel the team forward. At twenty, Gomes is a prospect with a bright future, but his lack of playing time is an enormous obstacle. Like Gomes, Joao Mario\u2019s chances of making the final cut are slim. A product of Sporting\u2019s famous Alcochete academy, Mario is a technically gifted box-to-box midfielder who spent most of the season with Sporting\u2019s B team before making the jump to Vitoria Setubal on loan, where he has impressed. There is certainly a place for Mario in the Portugal set-up, but it may be a little early.\nAdvantage: Ruben Amorim\nPortugal\u2019s forward line, particularly the wing \u2013 what the Portuguese call, \u201cextremos\u201d \u2013 will see the most changes. Incredibly, one could argue that apart from the untouchable Cristiano Ronaldo, only Silvestre Varela is safe. Nani, who has traditionally been a big part of Bento\u2019s set-up (he played in ten qualifiers), finds himself fighting for a spot \u2013 an almost unthinkable situation only a few months ago. However, the mercurial winger has had a season to forget, having been plagued by nagging injuries and David Moyes\u2019 questionable tactical decisions at Manchester United. Perhaps, the best way to describe Nani\u2019s situation is that a ticket to Brazil is his to lose rather than to win.\nThe same might be said about Vieirinha. A standout with Portugal at every youth level, the Wofsburg player never made the transition to the senior squad that most expected. In fact, his first call-up came in March of last year and was only the result of a last minute injury to the now marginalized Danny. Vieirinha\u2019s performances for Portugal haven\u2019t exactly delighted the Portuguese, as evidenced by a recent poll that ranked him at the bottom of the winger pecking order, but his experience in the Bundesliga should work in his favor.\nSince it is possible that Bento will include five wingers in his squad, Ricardo Quaresma, Rafa, and Ivan Cavaleiro could be fighting for the two remaining openings. Most Portuguese will tell you that Quaresma is sure to make the team, now that the one-time Bidone d\u2019Oro winner (the award given to Serie A\u2019s most disappointing player) is back at FC Porto, where he played his best football. Still, Quaresma brings a lot of baggage, and Bento has been quick to dismiss any players that could rock the boat (think Ricardo Carvalho). There\u2019s no question that the former Barcelona, Inter, and Besiktas player is incredibly gifted, but one has to wonder whether his personality will allow his talent to finally shine through for his country.\nTalent is something that Rafa and Ivan Cavaleiro have plenty of, but both players are clearly on the outside looking in. Rafa has established himself as a key player from Braga, but without any real international pedigree at the youth level (he was not selected to play in last summer\u2019s U20 World Cup), and after a disappointing debut with the national team against Cameroon in March, chances are Bento is examining the youngster for the future. Cavaleiro, who also received his first cap against Cameroon, has attracted more attention than the Braga man, particularly for his trickery and goal scoring with Benfica B. The knock against him is that he has not yet imposed himself on Benfica\u2019s senior side; although, he has impressed when given the chance.\nAdvantage: Nani, Vieirinha, and Quaresma\nEusebio aside, Portugal\u2019s biggest problem has been finding a striker that can score regularly. Ronaldo has certainly alleviated the problem, but even he needs someone to share the burden with. Unfortunately, neither Helder Postiga, nor Hugo Almeida have proved to be consistent scorers, yet both will find themselves on the plane with the rest of the team. Despite plenty of media criticism, Bento\u2019s faith in Postiga appears to be unwavering, mostly as a result of the Lazio man\u2019s ability to maintain possession and his penchant for scoring jaw-dropping goals. Almeida\u2019s time with Portugal looked to be up a few months ago, but his size may be deemed necessary against German defenders. The forward also has a cannon of a left foot. Braga\u2019s Eder will in all probability find himself on the roster, as well. The broad-shouldered striker has impressed with his club, and while he has yet to score for his country, his physicality might be what Portugal is missing up-front.\nPredicted Roster:\nGoalkeepers (3): Rui Patricio, Beto, Eduardo.\nDefenders (7): Jo\u00e3o Pereira, Fabio Coentr\u00e3o, Andr\u00e9 Almeida, Pepe, Bruno Alves, Luis Neto, Ricardo Costa.\nMidfielders (5): Jo\u00e3o Moutinho, Miguel Veloso, Raul Meireles, William Carvalho, Ruben Amorim.\nForwards (8): Cristiano Ronaldo, Nani, Silvestre Varela, Ricardo Quaresma, Vieirinha, Helder Postiga, Hugo Almeida, Eder.\nCategory: FIFA International World Cup World Cup 2014 Tags: Cristiano Ronaldo, Nani, Paulo Bento, Ronaldo, World Cup\n\u2190 Why Paulo Bento Deserves Contract Extension Guest Appearance on Have Another Donut Podcast \u2192",

        "raw_content": "PhotoFlow Harvests Solar Energy and Rainwater\nImage source: www.nos.mx\nTwo of the most important needs in developing country are a reliable source of off-grid power and a source for potable drinking water, and one design firm, NOS, thinks they might have the answer to both of those needs, in one integrated package.\nThe \u201cPhotoFlow\u201d uses eight triangular solar modules to harvest the sun\u2019s energy, which are mounted together in an octagonal structure on the top of a water tank. The system can catch and channel rainwater hitting the panels into a central filter and then into the water tank for storage.\n\u201cEach module is equipped with first-generation monocrystalline silicon solar cells covered with an antireflective adhesive which protects the photovoltaic semiconductor and minimizes the loss of light through reflection. The system integrates an N-type and P-type silicon layers. On top of the outer layer of the glass a Nano repellent film is applied to prevent dirt from obstructing light. Each module has a lid at the end to allow easy access for cleaning, maintenance and part replacement.\u201d\nThe water storage system designed by NOS to be used by the PhotoFlow is a 400 liter tank made from recycled polyethylene, which is then coated on the inside with an antibacterial and antifungal material to help keep the water safe and clean for human consumption.\nWhen deployed, the solar panels are said to measure about 2 meters square (~ 21 sq ft), and can generate about 340 kWh of electricity. There is no integrated energy storage solution for the PhotoFlow, which could be a big drawback in the many places around the world where there is no grid to tie it to, and the need for off-grid energy is high, so the device isn\u2019t quite as self-sufficient as it looks.\nThe PhotoFlow is not available to purchase, as NOS is looking for some funding to take this idea from the drawing board of the design firm to the side yard of off-grid houses around the world.\nWritten by Derek MarkhamPosted in Energy, Featured, TechnologyTags: Rainwater, Solar energy, Water harvestingSeptember 18, 2013\nYou\u2019ll Want To Check Out The Library Home",

        "title": "PrudentTrader Blog: Fear of Failure Paralysis",
        "raw_content": "You have just made five consecutive losing trades. Your confidence is shaken, and now you are reluctant to make another trade. You begin to think, \"Why should I try again, I'll just lose again, and if I do, well, I don't think I can take it.\" Outlook and expectations influence how we trade. If we recently have experienced a series of failures it changes our outlook. Rather than anticipating a win, we now expect failure. We become paralyzed by the fear of failure. We have trouble putting on another trade.\nWhen trading, it is sometimes necessary to get the law of averages to work in our favor. That can often mean making trade after trade to determine if our strategy is faulty or if market conditions have changed. It is necessary to counteract the fear of failure and to motivate ourselves to press on in the face of setbacks.\nIdentify the core assumptions that underlie your fear and refute them. Many times a fear of failure concerns your tendency to avoid facing problems head on. Rather than face our fears, we tend to believe that it is easier to avoid dealing with them by denying their existence. Fortunately, we can often beat this fear by realizing that facing our fears isn't as difficult as we expect them to be.\nA second assumption that underlies our fear of failure is our belief that one must be thoroughly competent, adequate, and achieving. Holding such a belief produces fear and anxiety, which for traders often produces hesitation and self-doubt. It is easy to see how you developed this belief. While growing up, whether it was at home, school or work, you often faced adverse consequences for not being capable. Consequently, over time, you learned to believe that you must be thoroughly competent, adequate, and achieving in everything that you do. If you believe that you must always be competent, you will waste all your limited psychological energy mulling over the negative consequences of failing, rather than focusing on what you are doing now to implement your current trading plan.\nDon't let a fear of failure interfere with your trading success. You don't have to be perfect. As any seasoned trader will tell you, one is bound to make mistakes occasionally, and if you are consumed with avoiding them, you'll be so anxious and fearful that you will make even more mistakes. So remind yourself that it is not useful to believe that you must be thoroughly competent, adequate, and achieving. No trader can live up to that standard, and ironically, if you try to, you'll have difficulty trading profitably and consistently.\nReprint of 2005 PrudentTrader Newsletter",

        "raw_content": "Reductionism is the idea that the world can be understood as the sum of its parts. Objectivity is the idea that there is an external reality independent of our biases and measurements. Together, these ideas are implicit in much or all of science.\nHow could these go wrong? Maybe there is some supernatural phenomenon that is not amenable to scientific study. There could be emergent features that do not reduce. There could be objects that behave differently every time you look at them, without any pattern. Maybe you can reduce a system to particles, but find that those particles seem to still have some complexity, but cannot be reduced any further.\nQuantum mechanics is a theory that seems to run up against the limits of reductionism and objectivity. Naive reductionism would lead you to reduce an electron to its charge, mass, spin, position, and momentum, but the uncertainty principle prevents it. Attempts at further reduction and realism have nearly always led to some hidden variable theory. However these theories have all failed. We may never reduce electrons to mathematics.\nThe subject of reductionism and determinism really creeps people out when applied to genomic influence on behavior and IQ. There is overwhelming evidence that many traits are heritable, but we lack a genetic theory to explain it.\nTo believe in counterfactuals, you have to believe that all possible events can be divided into the real and the fictitious. And that you can analyze them as if they had an objective existence. I have this belief because it seems essential to scientific thinking.\nWe should not accept a concept 100% just because it is convenient for science. Reductionism is convenient for science, but there may be limits to it. Maybe some counterfactuals do not make any sense. So there may be limits to counterfactual reasoning, but it is hard to imagine science without it.",

Sat under a blanket by the window, drinking coffee and watching it stick. Really took me back to my childhood in Iowa in the early fifties. We also took a road trip and I was impressed with the farm country near Havre de Grace:\nCame home last night and found a book I paid way too much for ($100) at San Patricio, New Mexico. This is a rare art book, \"Wyeth At Kuerners\" which features studies done by Andrew Wyeth, many of them in the snow. Got up this morning and took a crack at one just to see if I could ferret out his technique. Very subtle stuff.\nSo, this is not original art, but a study of a study done by Andrew Wyatt (from the book, \"Wyeth At Kuerners\"). I'm studying the masters here, hoping to get to some version of competence.

For about ten minutes after I finished the book I just sat still, and tried to work out all of my feelings. I was immensely overjoyed because Everneath was just. So. Good.

        "raw_content": "In the summer of 1952 while playing \u201cCowboys and Indians\u201d with her older brothers, Alice Walker at the age of eight years old, was blinded in her right eye by an errant BB gun pellet shot by one of her brothers. Alice became so self-conscious of the large white scar tissue left in her right eye, that she no longer held her head up because she felt ugly and ashamed of herself. When she was fourteen years old, her brother Bill had the \u201ccataract\u201d removed for Alice by a doctor in Boston, but regretfully her vision never returned. For so many years Alice Walker wanted nothing else but to be beautiful. Then one day she remembered what the doctor had said to her, \u201cEyes are sympathetic. If one is blind, the other will likely become blind too.\u201d For so long, Alice had taken what that doctor had said and made it a reality. She had forgotten to look at all the great opportunities that life offered her and focused only on her outward appearance because Alice was so consumed with the importance that society placed on beauty.\nAlice couldn\u2019t accept her own physical disability and this clouded her ability to live life to its fullest. Alice saw things, but she didn\u2019t perceive them. Until the day her husband said to her, \u201cI thought you made peace with that,\u201d and suddenly she started remembering the important things in life, like the gift of sight and the possibility of never seeing and perceiving the beauty of the desert.\nBeauty is so easily overrated. An omnipresent characteristic, beauty has stolen the eye of today\u2019s youth. Today\u2019s corporate advertisers are now dictating what beauty is because it sells and makes a lot of money. From a very early age, the concept of beauty is drummed into the minds of today\u2019s youth and the advertisers push all the products that will help them achieve this ultimate goal, from hairstyle, make-up, clothes, and body weight. Gone are the days where a person\u2019s inner beauty accounted for so much more than a person\u2019s physical beauty. It was more important on how you styled the eloquence in your conversations than how you styled your hair. What is it about beauty that drives everyone to possess but a fraction of it? In the end, it all comes down to acceptance. People believe that once they are beautiful, their friends, their peers and their companions will accept them. The problem is it\u2019s true for the most part. Because everyone is so absorbed with outer beauty that once they find someone who possesses it, they are automatically accepted into the social ring. Alice emphasizes that once she got that cataract removed from her eye, she immediately became a different person. She got the man of her dreams, became valedictorian for her high school and was also Prom Queen.\nBut really now, what is beauty? Here\u2019s what I think; Beauty is a quality or combination of qualities that gives great pleasure to the senses or to the mind and spirit. This is the way I believe humanities sense of beauty has become perverted. There are now too few who find great pleasure in their inner beauty. Remember the quote: \u201cBeauty is in the eye of the beholder.\u201d I hate to say it but I disagree. Maybe somewhere along the lines of: \u201cTrue beauty no longer matters in anyone\u2019s eyes.\u201d Beauty is usually found in the unexpected.\nThe day Alice Walker was putting her daughter Rebecca to sleep is when reality and realization finally set in for Alice. Alice was constantly worrying about the day her daughter would discover that her mother\u2019s eyes were different from other people. Then the day came when Rebecca focused on her mother\u2019s face. From personal experience, Alice knows how honest children can be in their observations and regretted the day when Rebecca would focus on her disfigured eye. However, when Rebecca said, \u201cMommy, there\u2019s a world in your eye,\u201d and \u201cMommy, where did you get the world in your eye?\u201d That\u2019s the day Alice finally learned to look upon herself and know that it was possible to love that world in her eye and remembering all the beautiful and important things in life that had faded away from her main focus.\nIn the end, Alice learned the true value of life and what was important. Since she was a little girl she was always so used to people telling her how cute and adorable she was, until that horrible day when she was eight years old that literally changed her life for the worst or so she thought. Alice goes on to say that she would sit in front of the mirror before going to bed and abuse her eye. She would rant and rave about how much she hated her eye and how she wished it would clear up by morning. Alice would never pray for sight, only beauty. It goes to show how a tiny disfigurement can almost ruin a person\u2019s life and how a few simple words from another can completely change one\u2019s perspective on everything that a person grew up believing. Alice lost sight of everything that was important to her because she was so obsessed with her physical appearance instead of realizing how beautiful it is just being able to see the world through her one good eye. After Alice left her daughter\u2019s room, she dreamt of a beautiful girl dancing and she realizes that the beautiful girl in her dream was no one other, than herself.\nYou can order a custom essay, term paper, research paper, thesis or dissertation on Alice Walker at our professional custom essay writing service which provides students with custom papers written by highly qualified academic writers.

        "title": "Review: Call on Me by Roni Loren |",
        "raw_content": "Review: Call on Me by Roni Loren\nEver heard that song that goes a little something like, \u201cLady on the street but a freak in the bed\u201d? Well\u2026 that\u2019s Oakley. By day she\u2019s a respectable up-tight receptionist but at night she\u2019s a phone sex operator. Granted, she doesn\u2019t get off on her night job, it\u2019s still a shock to some people which is why it\u2019s a well hidden secret of hers. Needless to say, there aren\u2019t a lot of guys who approve of her late night phone calls, which is fine by her since she\u2019s too busy to date anyways. However, in comes Pike, this punk rocker with tattoos and piercings, who not only figures out what her other job is but doesn\u2019t judge her for it either. I don\u2019t think I need to explain what happens next.\nThis was a very interesting book for me. I read a snippet of in at the end of Nice Girls Don\u2019t Ride and knew I had to get my hands on it. The book starts off with Oakley on the phone with a customer pretending to be interested in the (I\u2019m totally guessing his age here) old geezer who\u2019s panting away in the ear piece of her phone while she makes brownies. She burns her hands on the brownie pan and of course swears at the pain\u2026 only, the dude thinks she\u2019s in the moment and gets worked up over it all. Oakley being a good phone sex operator plays off of his assumption and oohs and ahhs her way over to the sink where she can run cold water over her hand. I\u2019m sorry, but that right there had me sold. How could you say no to a book that starts off like that?\nThis is a Loving on the Edge book and it doesn\u2019t disappoint in the sex department. Not only due to Oakley\u2019s job but when Pike figures out what she does after hours, he calls her up and puts her phone skills to use. I have to tell you, there are some scenes that are\u2026. well, let\u2019s just say they are something. I went to a sex shop once and saw a glass dildo. I totally gave it a o.0? look. I mean glass\u2026 in your hoohah sounds like a dangerous combination. Well, after reading a certain scene with a glass dildo in ice water, I\u2019ll be looking at that clear shlong a whole lot differently next time.\nIn all seriousness though, this not only had the sexiness that you\u2019ve come to love with the LotE series, but there are a lot of \u201cfeels\u201d to it too. I had no idea that there\u2019s a kid in this novel. Oakley has an eleven year old daughter who is in love with 80\u2019s punk rock. She was adorable. Now, normally I don\u2019t particularly care for children in romance novels, let alone an erotica but this actually worked REALLY WELL. Having Raegan in the picture brought a whole other ball game to the mix. This isn\u2019t just a story about two adults getting it on and finding love. Nope. This is so much more than that. It\u2019s not often that I have a heart warming moment from a book\u2026 but I had quite a few of them while reading Call on Me. Those moments make you love the characters that much more.\nI will say this, this is a great series. I haven\u2019t read all of the books. I\u2019ve actually kind of jumped around and read like the 3rd book first, then back tracked a couple, then jumped to the 5th book, and just recently read the first book. I had no problem jumping around like that. The author writes each book in a way that is unique to the characters in the pages. You never feel like you\u2019re getting part of a story. Now, if you were to read the books from start to finish you would see reoccurring appearances from characters and even see them get their own novels in the future books, but you don\u2019t ever feel left out of the mix if you don\u2019t read them in order. It\u2019s not like it\u2019s assumed that you know this person is married to that person and all their personal drama. Instead, you learn about them like Oakley does. Heck, I read Jace\u2019s book and didn\u2019t realize that the Jace who was working at the sex shop Oakley was in was someone who I read about. It wasn\u2019t until Pike told Oakley about Jace\u2019s husband and wife that I remembered reading about a trio in one of the previous books. So that right there proves that you don\u2019t need to read the previous books to understand what\u2019s going on. This is a great series and if you\u2019re looking for a great book that will not only give you the feels but has some steamy scenes mixed in, then look no further.\n\u201cShe could handle a ridiculously hot guy talking to her about vibrators. Sure. She was totally cool with this. Not awkward at all. Nope. \u201c\nPrevious reviews from Loving on the Edge\n6 Thoughts on \u201cReview: Call on Me by Roni Loren\u201d\nBraine on 24 June, 2015 at 11:42 am said:\nSold!

        "raw_content": "Oxon OX1 4\nThe university city of Oxford is approximately 50 miles(80 km) north-west of London and easily accessed by both rail and road. Called \u201cthe City of Dreaming Spires\u201d by 19th century poet Matthew Arnold, it is the largest town in The Cotswolds region of England.\nThe name \u2018Oxford\u2019 conjures up images of beautiful old buildings, cycling academics and Inspector Morse pondering a case whilst in a delightful riverside pub; a quaint, leisurely sort of place.\nThe buildings, cyclists and riverside pubs are all there but the city is a curious mixture of traditional academia in the centre and modern industrialisation on the outskirts.\nThe population is cosmopolitan with many migrants working in the manufacturing industries and hospitals. Hundreds of overseas students attend university so the town has plenty of entertainment venues, bars, cafes, restaurants, clubs, ethnic shops and fast food outlets.\nThe city is home to the oldest University in the English-speaking world, and it is made up of a number of ancient colleges. Over the centuries its scholars have left their mark all over the world. There is hardly a spot in the town that is not associated with a famous cleric, scientist, author or philosopher.\nThe majority of the historic buildings are clustered together in the centre of the town and within easy walking distance of each other. Students use bicycles to get around and the town has several outlets where tourists can hire a bicycle for a few hours. Web:Oxford City Guide\nLandmarks - Oxford Colleges\nThe Colleges and their associated Libraries and Museums make up most of the town\u2019s landmark buildings although the famous Headington Shark sculpture is in the suburbs.\nThe Colleges are not open to the public all of the time and each one has different opening hours. All of them have fascinating histories and beautiful architecture but if you have a particular favourite you wish to see, it is a good idea to check that it will be open on the day to avoid disappointment. Full information on all the colleges is available at:\nOxford Colleges Tour in a Day\nLandmarks - Memorials, Churches and other Treasures\nOther landmarks include the Oxford Martyrs\u2019 execution site in Broad Street, the Martyrs' Memorial Oxford, Tom Tower over the St Aldate\u2019s entrance to Christ Church, the Ashmolean Museum, the Bodleian Library, the Radcliffe Camera, the Sheldonian Theatre and the University Church of St Mary the Virgin (St Mary's Oxford).\nAll sorts of treasures await the visitor in the museums. As adjuncts to the various colleges the collections are not designed to engage younger visitors but to display artefacts associated with the town\u2019s famous academics. The Museum of the History of Science for example, has on display a blackboard complete with formulae used by Albert Einstein in a 1931 lecture.\nAnother historic location is the University of Oxford Botanic Garden. It is a beautiful spot and one of the oldest scientific gardens in the world; it was founded in 1621 as a physic garden.\nRivers & Punting\nTwo rivers and a canal run through central Oxford. The Thames which Oxfordians call \u2018The Isis\u2019 and the Oxford Canal run side by side for ten miles, (16 km) before meeting up with the pretty River Cherwell to the south. There is nothing nicer on a fine summer\u2019s day to stroll through Christ Church Meadows beside the shady Cherwell watching the punts sliding by.\nVisitors wanting to try their hand at punting should go to Punting on the Cherwell in this website for interesting details.\nThe famous Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge Universities is held in March on the Mortllake to Putney, London reach of the River Thames. There are plenty of opportunities for visitors to hire a rowing boat or a motor launch to sample the delights of The Isis and the canal. If DIY is a bit daunting, a tourist launch leaves Folly Bridge on a trip downstream to Abingdon.\nThe many attractive pubs overlooking The Isis and the canal locks are ideal places to pause for a quiet drink and a snack while watching the boats and wildfowl floating by.\nLovers of the Inspector Morse TV Series know that the detective loved to frequent pubs beside the Thames. As the series was filmed in and around Oxford, the visitor can enjoy the same locations. Inspector Morse Tours are organised through the Tourist Information Office. For tours of Oxford go to Web:Oxford City Guide\nGetting Around Oxford\n- Open Top Bus Tour\nOne way to see the city is on an Open Top Bus Tour. A ticket lasts all day and you just hop on and off at any of the 19 stops as often as you like.

In the 8th century the nunnery of St Erideswide was founded at Oxen-ford. The settlement was on the boundary of two Saxon kingdoms, Wessex and Mercia and in the 10th century it became an important frontier town.\nThe most powerful authority in medieval England was the Roman Catholic Church and its religious foundations; even the monarch was subservient to the Church. In return for obedience and a tenth of any earnings the Church promised a path to eternal rest after death. A King would do all he could to earn his place with God by helping the Church in establishing religious foundations and building churches.\nBy the 12th century Oxford was so powerful and prestigious that King Henry II granted a charter giving citizens the same privileges and exemptions as those enjoyed by the capital of the kingdom (London).\nAll the great religious orders had houses of varying importance in or near the city, and parliaments were often held there during the 13th century.\nThe University is first mentioned in 12th century records but the first College to be built was University College (1249), followed by Balliol (1263) and Merton (1264).\nThese colleges were established at a time when Europeans were starting to translate the writings of Greek philosophers. These writings challenged European ideology \u2013 inspiring scientific discoveries and advancements in the arts \u2013 as society began seeing itself in a new way.\nThe Church (the \u2018town\u2019) thought it could reconcile Greek Philosophy with Christian Theology by supporting the new University (the \u2018gown\u2019) It was the start of an uneasy relationship between \u2018town and gown\u2019 that led to the town\u2019s reputation as \u2018a hotbed of radicals\u2019.\nIn 1555 Bishops Hugh Latimer and Nicholas Ridley, and Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer were tried for their religious beliefs and teachings and were found guilty of heresy. They were burned at the stake in Broad Street and are known as the \u2018Oxford Martyrs\u2019. A small area cobbled with stones forming a cross in the centre of the road outside the front of Balliol College marks the execution site.\nFrom 1642 the town became home to the court of King Charles I. Parliament had expelled him from London for ignoring their decisions, thus starting the first English Civil War (1642-46) Charles ignored the fact that the town supported the Parliamentary cause and subjected the town to a debilitating siege.\nDuring the Restoration of the Monarchy, King Charles II moved his court to the city to escape the Great Plague of 1665.\nThe 18th and 19th centuries brought industrialisation to the city dramatically expanding the population. There had always been a port with ships sailing down the River Thames to London but as ships grew larger the upper reaches of the Thames were no longer navigable. Canal locks were then built at Iffley and Osney and the Oxford canal finished in 1790, then connected the city with the Midlands.\nAs with cities all over Britain the coming of the railway cemented the city as a manufacturing and administrative centre.\nThe south-eastern suburbs of Cowley and Hadington are home to the Oxford Business Park where the successful BMW Mini is now manufactured.\nThroughout the 20th century the town was associated with the manufacture of motor cars and remains synonymous with names such as Austin, Morris and British Leyland. There are superb collections of these companies\u2019 product at the Oxford Bus Museum near Witney which includes the Morris Motors Museum.\nNeighbouring Attractions\nOf course, all the pretty and historic villages of the Cotswolds are within easy driving distance of the city making it an excellent base for exploring the region.\nJust 8 miles (13 km) to the north is Blenheim Palace, home of the 1st Duke of Marlborough and birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Close by is Bladon churchyard, family resting place of the Churchills.\nOnly ten miles (16 km) away is the Didcot Railway Centre where you can get close up and personal with beautiful steam locomotives and Brunel\u2019s Great Western Railway. It is located right beside the Didcot mainline station so visitors can either travel by road or rail.\nAnother fascinating yet very different attraction is the Uffington White Horse prehistoric hill figure cut into the Berkshire Downs. It is an easily visible landmark cut into the Ridgeway escarpment and a great place for an invigorating walk. It is approximately 22 miles (35 km) by road south-west of the city.\nA useful link chock full of information and advice on where to go and what to see Web:Oxford City Guide\nOxford City Visitor Information\nTake the First Great Western service from London Paddington to Oxford mainline station.

        "raw_content": "Download \"Disciplinary & Grievance Policy Jan 2016\"\n1 Disciplinary & Grievance Policy Jan 2016 Disciplinary Procedure: Policy statement Greenwich Mencap wants to ensure employees clearly understand the standards of conduct and behaviour (See Code of Conduct Policy) that is required of them in their jobs. Where these requirements are not being met action may be taken under the Disciplinary or Grievance procedures contained within this document. This can lead to dismissal in some cases. The policy does not form part of an employee s contract of employment with Greenwich Mencap. The policy and procedure may be subject to change. The policy: Greenwich Mencap recognises that failure to meet the required standards can arise from either conduct or capability & performance reasons. Misconduct is where the employee is unable or unwilling to meet standards through negligence, carelessness or deliberate refusal to work satisfactorily. Incapability is where the employee has received all the necessary training but is unable to achieve the required standards of performance. On an occasion where conduct and capability overlap, a decision will be taken by the manager on the most appropriate procedure to be followed. Overview All employees are covered by this policy, which sets out how we will deal with allegations of poor performance or misconduct. It does not form part of your employment contract but applies regardless of how long you have been our employee. Self-employed contractors are not covered. We reserve the right to amend this policy at any time. When we will take informal action It is important that issues of conduct are raised as soon as possible with the employee. Minor issues of concern will normally be addressed by the manager informally through advice, guidance and discussion. The aim is to encourage the employee to understand the concerns and to agree ways of improving the situation.\n2 Where the matter is more serious, it will be dealt with formally under the procedure: Verbal Warnings have been removed in favour of ongoing Line Management support and regular Performance Reviews. Sometimes we will choose to discuss a misconduct or performance issue with you before taking formal action. If this fails to resolve the problem, or we feel this approach is inappropriate in the circumstances, we will normally use this procedure. General principles So that employees understand the standards of conduct and behaviour expected of them, managers should ensure that: new employees, as part of their induction, are informed of the standards of conduct and behaviour expected of them and that performance will be assessed on a regular basis, including during the 6 month probation period. new employees are informed, as part of their induction, about the expectations required of them and what will they will be expected to demonstrate in their jobs. standards of work performance are monitored as part of regular Line Management/one-to-one meetings with managers and within 6 monthly performance reviews. employees are informed at an early stage if they are not achieving the required standards. employees who change jobs are made aware of the standards required in the new job and any new objectives, when they start their new role. employees are informed of any changes to the standards or objectives and receive additional training/support where appropriate. The Procedures: Principles applying to hearings under the formal procedure No disciplinary action will be taken against an employee unless an investigation has taken place. Prior to a disciplinary hearing, the manager must set out in writing the employee s alleged conduct or other circumstances, which led them to contemplate dismissing or undertaking disciplinary action against the employee. The manager must also state what evidence he/she relies on as a basis for contemplating disciplinary action. The manager should send this information to the employee, and invite the employee to a hearing to discuss the matter. The employee will be given reasonable notice of hearings (this may be adjourned for further investigations). The employee should be given a reasonable opportunity to consider his or her response to the information provided by the manager, before the hearing takes place.\n3 The employee must take all reasonable steps to attend the hearing. During the hearing, the employee will be given the opportunity to state his or her case before any decision is made. The employee may be accompanied by a work colleague at all formal stages of the procedure (but not during any investigation prior to a hearing). The companion can have a say at the meeting but can t answer questions on the employee s behalf. Where the companion is a Greenwich Mencap employee they have a right to reasonable time off to prepare for the hearing and to talk with the employee privately as needed. After the hearing, the manager will inform the employee of their decision and notify the employee of their right of appeal. If the employee wishes to appeal, the employee must be invited to an appeal hearing, which they must take all reasonable steps to attend. After the appeal hearing, the manager must inform the employee of the outcome. No employee will be dismissed for a first breach of discipline except in the case of gross misconduct when the penalty will normally be dismissal without notice or payment in lieu of notice. The procedure may be implemented at any stage i.e. stages 1 to 3 (see below) if the employee's alleged misconduct warrants such action. An employee may be suspended with pay pending the outcome of an investigation. The disciplinary process should be completed as quickly as is practicable, ideally within 7 days - notwithstanding the need for proper investigation and consideration. How we investigate When we investigate a misconduct or performance issue, we may hold one or more meetings. We will not take disciplinary or capability action without inviting you to a formal meeting, but depending on the specific circumstances that hearing may be the only meeting we invite you to attend. In other words, there may not be separate meetings for the investigation and disciplinary stages. If you face a misconduct allegation, you may be suspended, in which case you must stay away from work, not visit any Company premises or make contact with staff, clients, suppliers or contractors (unless we authorise this in writing). Being suspended from work is part of the formal process and does not amount to a separate, standalone disciplinary action. Your right to be accompanied You are entitled to be accompanied by a colleague or trade union representative at any meeting called under this policy where you face formal action (including dismissal).\n4 If you want to exercise this right, you should tell us as soon as possible who you want to accompany you. It is your responsibility to arrange for them to attend. If you choose a work colleague, we will not prevent them from attending, but we may rearrange the meeting if their absence from work causes operational problems. Your colleague or union representative can, if this is your preference, explain the key points of your case to the meeting and can respond on your behalf. You can also confer with them during the meetings. They must not however answer questions put directly to you or try to prevent the Company asking questions or outlining its arguments. How we carry out the formal hearing We will write to you to tell you: when and where your disciplinary or capability hearing will take place the details of the allegation of poor performance or misconduct made against you; and the possible consequences. We will usually include copies of witness statements and other relevant documents. You are entitled to bring a companion with you to the hearing see above at paragraph 4 for details of what they can and cannot do. You must let us know as soon as possible if you want to bring your own witnesses to the meeting and/or you have documents or other evidence you want to present. It is your responsibility to attend the hearing but, if you cannot, we will normally reschedule it provided we are satisfied with your explanation for why you cannot attend. We may however be obliged to make our decision without you being present, and we will in any case only reschedule the meeting once unless there are very good reasons to justify a second rescheduling. We may record the meeting, but we will not do so without telling you. You are also invited to record the meeting if you wish, but please tell us as we would consider it discourteous to the managers involved for you to make a covert recording. We will go through all the details at the meeting so that you fully understand the allegation of poor performance or misconduct made against you. We will also outline the evidence we found when we carried out our investigation. We will give you the time you need to respond to the allegations made against you and to put your own case. We will also give you the opportunity to question us, to present your own evidence, to call your own witnesses, and to respond to evidence\n5 the Company s witnesses put forward. If there are any questions you want us to put to the Company s witnesses, please tell us and (unless there is a good reason not to) we will make sure they are asked. The Company s decision following the hearing will be sent to you in writing. We try to do this within two weeks of the disciplinary hearing. The disciplinary action and dismissal process These are the three stages of our procedure for dealing with cases of poor performance or misconduct. First stage: We will issue you with a first written warning. Unless you already have active written warnings relating to your performance and/or to disciplinary matters on your work record, a first written warning will usually remain in place for 12 months from the date you are notified of the decision. It will then be removed from your record. If the misconduct is serious, misconduct occurs or if there are repeated failures to reach acceptable standards, a Written Warning will be given. This will give details of the complaint(s), the improvement required and the timescale. It will warn that further disciplinary action will be considered if there is no satisfactory improvement and will advise of the right of appeal. The written warning will be kept on the employee's personal file but will be disregarded for disciplinary purposes after 12 months, subject to satisfactory conduct and performance. In exceptional circumstances the period may be longer or for the duration of the individual's employment with Greenwich Mencap. Stage 2 Final Written Warning If there is still a failure to improve, or conduct is still unsatisfactory, or if the misconduct or the failure to reach acceptable standards is sufficiently serious to warrant only one written warning but insufficiently serious to justify dismissal, a Final Written Warning will normally be given to the employee. This will give details of the complaint, will warn that dismissal will result if there is no satisfactory improvement and will advise of the right of appeal. The final written warning will be kept on the employee's file but will be disregarded for disciplinary purposes after two years, subject to satisfactory conduct and performance. In exceptional circumstances the period may be longer or for the duration of the individual's employment with Greenwich Mencap. If there is an active first written warning on your record and your performance has failed to improve or you are involved in further misconduct, we will usually issue you with a final written warning. In serious cases of poor performance or misconduct, we may issue a final written warning without first issuing a first written warning. In\n6 either case, the final written warning remains active for 12 months from the date you are notified of the decision. It will then be removed from your record. Stage 3 Dismissal If conduct or behavior remains unsatisfactory, or the misconduct or the failure to reach acceptable standards is sufficiently serious, Dismissal will normally result. The decision to dismiss will not normally be taken by the employee's immediate manager but by the Chief Executive. The employee will be provided, as soon as is reasonably practicable, with written reasons for dismissal, the date on which employment will terminate and details of the right of appeal. If there is an active final written warning against you and your performance has failed to improve or you are involved in further misconduct, you may be dismissed. You may also be dismissed for a serious case of misconduct or poor performance, or if you are involved in gross misconduct. We explain what misconduct and gross misconduct comprise in the lists given below. Sometimes we are prepared to explore other actions short of dismissal. These may include deploying you to a different role, demoting you, and/or extending your final written warning period to allow us further time to review how you respond. Demotion At either stage 2 or stage 3 of the procedure, as an alternative to (or in addition to) a written warning or dismissal, employment at a lower grade may be offered to the employee. This decision should be the employee s, not the manager s, as a forced demotion could constitute constructive (unfair) dismissal. Summary Dismissal If, following investigation and a disciplinary hearing, it is found that an employee has committed an act of gross misconduct, they may be summarily dismissed without notice and without payment in lieu of notice. Appeals An employee who wishes to appeal against a disciplinary decision should notify the next higher manager from the manager who took the disciplinary decision. The notification should be in writing and in your response to that letter, you must explain exactly why you are appealing. The appeal letter must be received by the manager within 10 working days of the date of the letter informing the individual of the decision. Appeals will normally be heard by the next higher manager, or by another manager at the same or a higher level. The decision of the hearing manager will be final. The decision will be communicated in writing as soon as possible after the date of the appeal hearing. At the appeal, any disciplinary penalty imposed will be reviewed but cannot be increased.\n7 If an employee successfully appeals against dismissal, they will be reinstated to their original (or at least a comparable) position within the organisation unless the individual accepts a lower position as an alternative to dismissal. The Company s final decision will be sent to you in writing. We try to do this within two weeks of the appeal hearing. You do not have any further right to appeal against our decision. How we define gross misconduct and misconduct You will usually be dismissed without warning, without notice, and without payment in lieu of notice if we find you have committed an act of gross misconduct. This is known as summary dismissal. The following list gives examples of what we would normally regard as gross misconduct likely to lead to summary dismissal. This list is not exhaustive and should be referred to as a guide. bullying or physical violence fraud, theft, or any act of dishonesty serious negligence leading to loss, damage, or injury serious health and safety breaches serious and intentional damage to Company property unlawful harassment or discrimination viewing, receiving, or sending anything that breaches the Company s harassment, bullying and equal opportunities policies knowingly accessing websites containing offensive, obscene or pornographic material serious subordination serious breaches of confidence being under the influence of illegal drugs being under the influence of alcohol, unless this is with your manager s express knowledge and permission for example, where you are involved in entertaining on the Company s behalf any other act entitling the Company to end your employment immediately without giving you notice and without the requirement to make any further payments to which you would otherwise be entitled under your contract of employment. The following list gives examples of what we would normally regard as misconduct but not gross misconduct. This list is not exhaustive and should be referred to as a guide. minor breaches of Company policy minor breaches of your employment contract unauthorised use, or damage to, Company property\n8 absence from work that has not been authorised poor attendance and timekeeping refusing to follow instructions making an excessive number of personal calls using Company phones sending and receiving an excessive number of personal s using the internet to excess for personal purposes using obscene language or otherwise behaving offensively being careless when carrying out your duties wasting time during your contracted working hours smoking in areas where smoking is not allowed. Responsibilities In most circumstances responsibilities are as follows: First Line Manager To undertake an investigation and recommend to the second line manager that they consider that there are allegations to be answered. Second Line Manager To notify the employee of the allegations and the grounds for these allegations; to arrange and conduct the disciplinary hearing; to notify the employee of the outcome (NB in some circumstances, the first line manager may assume these responsibilities as well as the responsibilities indicated in the previous paragraph). Chief Executive If the employee appeals, the Chief Executive is to arrange and conduct the appeal hearing and notify the employee of the outcome. Human Resources Consultancy To advise the Chief Executive if required throughout the process and to attend hearings in an advisory capacity, if required. Normally the disciplinary process will be dealt with in the employee s line management chain. However this may not always be appropriate or practical. Therefore a manager outside of the employee s management chain may be nominated to undertake any part of the process. At the outset of any disciplinary activity, the Chief Executive should contact Human Resources if required for general advice and guidance. Where relevant, the Chief Executive should also discuss the matter with the relevant external funding or regulatory bodies, on any specific procedures or joint investigation that may be required.\n9 Grievance Procedure INTRODUCTION This policy outlines the rules and procedures concerning grievance at work. Greenwich Mencap is required to communicate the written grievance policy and procedures to all employees. Grievance may occur when an employee has issues or concerns about their work, working environment or working relationships that they wish to raise and have addressed. A grievance procedure provides a mechanism for these concerns and issues to be dealt with fairly and quickly before they develop into major issues. These procedures are particularly important for an organisation such as the Greenwich Mencap, which offers services to vulnerable people as its core business. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aims and objectives of this policy are to: Promote good employment relations Address issues quickly Allow employees opportunities to raise issues Resolve disputes internally and where possible informally Communicate the formal rules and process of a grievance Encourage fairness and consistency in the treatment of individuals Ensure effective and efficient provision of services in accordance with Greenwich Mencap s objectives PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this policy is to outline the rules governing grievance at work and, the various stages involved within the formal process. The Employee Code of Conduct must also be considered together with this policy. The grievance procedure enables individual employees to raise grievances with management about their employment either by themselves or with a representative; also it supports managers to handle grievances fairly and consistently, before they develop and become major issues for the organisation and the individual. The formal grievance procedure is designed primarily to investigate complaints and either uphold, partially uphold or dismiss the case. The grievance procedure and process may be varied in special cases, however where possible the core rules and principles will be adhered to. PRINCIPLES The grievance policy and procedures adhere to some basic principles that represent good employment practices and set standards for both Greenwich Mencap and its employees. These principles are listed below:\n10 Greenwich Mencap will encourage the employees to raise any valid grievances against a colleague or a manager without having the fear of being punished or victimised. Mediation will be made available to help resolve issues. At every stage in the procedure the employee will be advised of the complaint by a colleague or a manager in writing and will be given the opportunity to state their case before any decision is made. At all stages of the procedure, the complainant will have the right to be accompanied by a work colleague of their choice or a trade union representative. Both parties will be entitled to call witnesses to support their case. The complainant will have the right to appeal against any formal decision made at the 1st stage of the grievance procedure. Appeals are heard by a more senior member of the management team. Where the Chief Executive Officer was involved in the 1 st stage of the grievance procedure, any appeal that may be made will be heard by the Chair of the Board of Trustees. The Chair may delegate this task to another member of the Board of Trustees, as required. The Human Resources Consultant will be involved in all stages of the grievance procedure and management staff are encouraged to seek advice at the earliest opportunity. GRIEVANCE RULES Greenwich Mencap is committed to train, support and manage employees to enable them to meet the standards of conduct required. Where complaints or issues listed below arise these may be dealt with under the grievance procedures: Terms and conditions of employment Health and Safety Work relationships New working practices Working environment Organisational change, and Diversity issues. This is not an exhaustive list. STAGES OF GRIEVANCE Introduction At all formal stages the complainant has the right to be accompanied. In all cases there will be a thorough investigation of significance and validity of the case. Depending on the outcome of the investigation the two parties will attempt to resolve the issues through informal discussions. However if the outcome is not\n11 satisfactory or the investigation raises serious concern then the formal grievance procedure will be instigated. Representation, Investigation and Suspension Representation An employee has a right to be accompanied at each stage of the formal Grievance Procedure by a colleague of their choice from within Greenwich Mencap. It is the responsibility of the employee to invite their chosen representative to accompany them to the grievance hearing or appeal hearing. Employees must inform Greenwich Mencap of who they have chosen as their representative and their status. Investigation A formal investigation will take place where the matter is sufficiently serious to warrant such action and/or the informal stage did not achieve desired results. The matter will then be investigated further and if deemed necessary, formal grievance procedures will be instigated. If a manager decides to investigate the matter further they will act promptly to clarify what the issues are and gather information before memories fade, including evidence from the employee and statements from any witnesses. Suspension An employee may be suspended with pay, pending the outcome of an investigation. In some instances it may be advisable for both parties to be suspended from Greenwich Mencap if the issues are sufficiently serious to warrant such action. Informal Stage Where an individual has a grievance with another person they should first discuss their grievance with the person involved. When an individual has a grievance relating to their employment, they must raise it first with their immediate supervisor or manager and endeavour to resolve any concerns internally. Where the grievance cannot be resolved informally it should be dealt with under the formal grievance procedure. Formal Procedure Stage 1 If the complainant remains dissatisfied with the informal process and wish their grievance to be heard under the formal procedure they will be required to put their grievance in writing to their manager, stating that they are initiating the formal grievance procedure. Where the grievance is against the line manager the matter should be raised with a more Senior Manager. The individual with whom the grievance was raised will invite\n12 the parties to attend a hearing in order to discuss the grievance and will inform them of their right to be accompanied. All parties must take all reasonable steps to attend. The Chief Executive Officer will be involved in all the formal stages and make necessary arrangements for the hearing including the selection of an appropriate panel. A hearing will be held to discuss the grievance within 10 working days, if possible, of the employee raising the grievance. A record of the meeting will be kept on file and circulated to all relevant parties. The individual with whom the grievance was raised will meet with each party with the aim of resolving any difficulties or concerns as expediently as possible (the HR consultant will advise on this) and will confirm the decision of the meeting to the employee in writing within 5 days. The panel s decision will be given in writing outlining the reasons within 5 days of the hearing. The written decision will also set out: the employee s right of appeal against the decision to whom any appeal should be submitted; and the deadline by which any appeal should be made A copy will be recorded on both employees files. Stage 2 If the employee is not satisfied with the decision of the panel they have a right of appeal. The referral to the higher level of management by the person raising the grievance must be in writing outlining full details of the grounds of appeal and the redress sought. This must be done within 5 working days of the employee being informed of the decision of the grievance under the first stage. The Chief Executive Officer will arrange a hearing to discuss the concerns within 10 working days, if possible, of receiving the request. If it is not possible to respond within the specified time period the employee will be given an explanation for the delay and told when a response can be expected. As within stage one, the panel will attempt to resolve the issues and inform both parties of the decision in writing within 5 working days. The decision at the appeal stage will be considered final and binding. A copy will be recorded on both employees files.\n13 Special Conditions In the case of a senior manager with a grievance this will be raised in the first instance with the Chief Executive Officer or the Chair of the Board of Trustees of Greenwich Mencap. The Chair of Greenwich Mencap shall be entitled to delegate the role of adjudicator on the grievance to any other person or groups of persons whether officials of the Greenwich Mencap or members of the Greenwich Mencap and they shall make a decision within 14 working days. The decision of the Chair of Greenwich Mencap or the persons nominated by the Chair of Greenwich Mencap to adjudicate on the issue shall be final and binding. A copy of the decision will be recorded in the employee s file. Chief Executive Officer If the matter of Grievance relates to the Chief Executive Officer, a Human Resources Consultancy will be engaged if deemed appropriate by the Trustees. This would be the case in matters concerning Gross Misconduct, Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults or Children or Evidence of Fraudulent activities. If a staff member wishes to consider this option, they should first read the Whistleblowing Policy. PANEL COMPOSITION The grievance panel shall consist of: The Chief Executive Officer One other member of the Senior Leadership Team. One member of the panel should have knowledge of the field of work of the employee, if possible. The members of the grievance panel shall not include anyone who has been involved in the circumstances leading to the grievance. KEEPING RECORDS Greenwich Mencap will keep written records of the grievance process. Records will be treated as confidential and kept in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998, which gives individual the right to request and have access to certain data. The overriding principles of the Data Protection Act 1998 are that any data kept should be necessary, fairly and lawfully processed, adequate, relevant, accurate and secure. Clearly records of grievance matters should only be kept if they adhere to the principles, and the parties involved should be assured of their accuracy and confidentiality.\n14 Copies of meeting records will be provided to all parties concerned, although in certain circumstances (i.e. to protect a witness) Greenwich Mencap might withhold some information. SPECIAL CASES: Discrimination, Harassment and Bullying Employees may raise issues of discrimination, harassment and bullying complaints under this grievance procedure in the first instance with their line manager, or if this is not appropriate with the Chief Executive Officer. Following an investigation report, should there be a recommendation for further action, the Code of Conduct Policy will be followed. If there is insufficient evidence the case will be dismissed and/or the panel may recommend an alternative course of action, such as disciplinary proceedings. TRAINING Employees who may be involved in grievance matters will be trained in the implementation of these procedures. They need to be familiar with the provisions of the grievance procedure, and know how to conduct or represent at grievance hearings. REVIEW OF PROCEDURE AND MONITORING This policy and procedure will be monitored and reviewed regularly by the Greenwich Mencap Senior Leadership Team. Any changes will be ratified by the Board of Trustees and communicated to all employees through updates on our website.

As his writing life was winding down, Maxwell penned an autobiographical, coming of age story about how events leading up to and following a murder in his small town of Lincoln, Illinois changed his perceptions of life. Resulting was So Long, See You Tomorrow, a perceptive novella which garnered the American Book Award.Born in 1908, Maxwell enjoyed life in small town Lincoln, Illinois. A farming community in close proxim [...]\nThis is a little masterpiece of narrative compression. Though only 135 pages long, it can seem at times that whole paragraphs of unwritten backstory are suggested by every line, every image. A rundown of the plot will not give you a sense of the high level of mastery involved here, but here it is anyway. In the early 1920s one married farmer befriends another married farmer then steals his wife. Both marriages break up. The adulterous wife--Fern Smith--sues her husband for divorce and wins on gr [...]\nThis is miniature tour de force\u2026powerful, moving and beautifully written in a spare writing style that evokes a profound sense of place. It\u2019s no secret that this novella is an old man\u2019s recollection of a tragic episode from his childhood\u2026a love triangle and murder in a small, Illinois farm town in the early 1920s. Yet, this story reveals much more than an account of a crime of passion. This slender novel is about childhood memories, nostalgia and dealing with loss, guilt and haunting reg [...]\nSo. This novel is indisputably a 5-star book by any criterion. Each sentence is one the current crop of MFA-wielding authors dream of having penned. It becomes only more intense, lyrical, disturbing, resonant as it progresses to its end. These 2 friends' reviews do it justice and are lyrical in their own right. /review/show/review/showKeep your eye on the title. It reminds the reader that Maxwell's focus is on collateral damage, on the periphery, less on what appears in the center of the viewfin [...]\nStorytellers are liarsJohn Updike said about this novel: \"What a lovely book, utterly unlike any other in shape I have ever read.\"He's right. While the subject matter of this book is not new or particularly original, the form is. The framework of the story is about a murder, yes, but William Maxwell tells us all the salacious details in the first chapter: farmers, neighbours, best friends, Clarence and Lloyd, become mortal enemies when Lloyd has an affair with Clarence's wife. Clarence murders L [...]\nSpeechless That was extraordinary.(24 hours later)I knew I was in for something special when I heard Richard Ford saying that this was one of his all-time favourite books but I didn't expect this level of amazement and mastery as I zipped through these 150 pages on a rainy October Sunday. How did someone manage to pack so much humanity in such a tiny work of art? The last time I felt such mind blowing concision was when I read \"The Great Gatsby\" for the first time. Every single sentence contains [...]\nOne of the best depictions of the effect on children (and a dog!) of marital discord I\u2019ve ever read. This small book manages to say so much about life across the generations with, at its root, the recognition of the importance of ritual for children and the damage that can ensue when a married couple no longer have anything new to offer each other. Located in rural farmlands in Middle America there were times when I felt dust between my teeth and in my hair so vividly does Maxwell evoke the la [...]\nSometimes small, apparently insignificant actions can haunt one forever. It could quite simply be something one said or didn\u2019t say. And so it is with the narrator of this story. A horrible event destroys two families, but it is a small, spur of the moment action that causes him regret for the rest of his life.The writing is beautiful, and with few words much is conveyed. #####Note:The narrator says: \u201cWhat we, or at any rate what I, refer to confidently as memory \u2013 meaning a moment, a scene [...]\nI've said before that the ending of a work can make the work for me, and such is the case here. Not that the beginning wasn't wonderful, it was; in fact, the end reflects back to the beginning, another of my favorite things. And as I approached the end, I lingered over the sentences, rereading them: slight though they may seem, they are so worth it.This slim novel is a perfect example of why a writer writes, how an incident can linger and fester until he works it out of his thoughts and memories [...]\nA Most Vehement Flame\"jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame\"Solomon 8:6, King James BibleThis short novel about a 1921 murder-suicide in a small Illinois farming town mesmerized me. Written as the recollection of the narrator's friendship with another 14-year-old and his reconstruction of events from newspaper accounts fifty years on after he cannot shake a lingering memory of the last time he saw his friend, whose father killed his [...]\nToo many conflicting emotional interests are involved for life ever to be wholly acceptable, and possibly it is the work of the storyteller to rearrange things so that they conform to this end. In any case, in talking about the past we lie with every breath we draw. (p 27)In this shattering, though very simple, piece, Maxwell writes the story of mid-western boys, one looking back on his childhood and remembering the other boy caught up in the vortex of a murder on a farm. The details sound bare, [...]\nWilliam Maxwell wrote a semi-autobiographical novel about two lonely boys whose lives briefly intersect. Although he is now an old man, he still feels guilt that he did not reach out and offer support to his friend after a tragedy.The narrator's life fell apart when his mother died in the influenza epidemic of 1918. His family members each grieved privately, but no one talked about their feelings. It was a difficult time for the sensitive ten-year-old boy.The second great loss occurs a few years [...]\nWritten more than forty years after They Came Like Swallows, this book takes up the story of Bunny where it left off in that book. But the name Bunny is not used in this book; he has become the narrator, and he is never given a name, as far as I can recall - I read it very fast, perhaps too fast.Unlike Swallows, this book isn't all about one family but branches out into an almost unrelated story about another couple of families during the same period, 1920s, state of Illinois. Maxwell makes the [...]\nLA PERDITA DELL' INNOCENZA, IL CONFINE DELLA MATURIT\u00c0William Maxwell \u00e8 stato l\u2019editor pi\u00f9 importante della rivista The New Yorker dal 1936 al 1975, dall\u2019et\u00e0 di 28 a quella di 67 anni: per tre giorni alla settimana era in redazione a fare l\u2019editor (di gente come Nabokov, Updike, Salinger, Cheever, Isaac Bashevis Singer, Mavis Gallant, Frank O\u2019Connor, Maeve Brennan, Eudora Welty, John O\u2019Hara e altri) e per quattro giorni restava a casa a scrivere la sua letteratura.\u201cSo Long, See Yo [...]\nRarely do I find myself re-reading books since there are just way too many on my bucket list and time is steadily counting down. However, the other day, when my feed showed TWO people adding William Maxwell's So Long, See You Tomorrow, I figured that it must be a sign, so pushing my other reading aside, I grabbed my copy of the book and asked Anne if I could read along. She said \"Yes!\". It was the best decision I'd made in a while.You see, I first read this book in early 2009. It was my introduc [...]\nThe wind blows hard across the prairie and into small-town Lincoln, Illinois. You can feel it through the walls.Did I say walls? There might as well not be walls in the farmhouses in Lincoln, Illinois. The gossip blows hard, too. And young boys struggle with the transparent doings of mothers and fathers.William Maxwell uses such a young boy to narrate part of this story. He climbs the carpenter's work of his family's new house, unclothed studs and rafters; and he will be reminded of that years l [...]\nI love it when an author can tell a \"big\" story in so few words. This is the sad telling of the aftermath of murder which occurred in a rural community in the 1920's. We even get to hear the dog's prospective (which is heartbreaking by the way). Good book. I would recommend to most everyone.\nGreat writing and I liked the story-within-a-story framing, but the large cast of characters with similar surnames confused me at times. I also cared a lot more about Trixie the dog than any of the humans, but maybe that was intentional. Poor thing.\nMaria Headley says:\nI don't know how I'd never read this before. It's particularly silly, because I've read possibly three entire books about William Maxwell, and certainly plenty of his New Yorker stuff, just in the way one reads randomly bits of things over the years, and they accrue, and one day, you realize, Hello, I haven't read any books by this writer that EVERYONE ADORES. Maxwell was an incredible person by all accounts - I read MY MENTOR, the Alec Wilkinson book about him, as well as a straight bio, and an [...]\n\u201cLove, even of the most ardent and soul-destroying kind, is never caught by the lens of the camera.\u201dOh, man. What have I stepped into with this book? There\u2019s no way a single read is sufficient for me to review this burning revelation of the soul. \u201cHow was it that she didn\u2019t realize it was going to last such a short time.\u201dIf anyone should ever ask me to recommend a work of fiction that sums up the human condition, passing this book along, I\u2019ll reply, \u201cSit down.

But So Long, See You Tomorrow is less about the murder than it is about examining the enduring and unforeseen consequences of our decisions - both in action and inaction - and how these can haunt us, and damage the lives of others in profound ways. Some such choic [...]\nIn straightforward and concise prose, seriously not a word is wasted they all have incredible meaning, Maxwell conveys the loss of innocence of two boyhood friends. This book is so short but the words and the story are so tall. One of the four 1920's books I am presently reading, by a Chicago author I had never heard of, and it was very very good. Reminded me a bit of the writing of Kent Hauf, he manages to provoke tension, dread and a bittersweet poignancy all at the same time. The characters, [...]\nThe most heart-breaking novel I've ever read (with John Williams' Stoner a close second). I've read it several times, taught it twice, and the ending never fails to put a lump in my throat.\n4.5 stars. I listened to a story on NPR the other day about how the police can often tell if a suspect is lying because the lies are elaborated fully with so much detail, as if to make up for the fabrication, whereas the truth is often very simple.This book reminded me of that because it is elaborate and full of detail, from the history of the town to the history of each character to the description of one thing or another that strikes the reader as something nobody would just make up, so that t [...]\nThis is one of the best novellas I have read in years. I sought it out after learning that Ann Patchett lists it as one of her favorite books.The story is very simple: It's a man trying to make sense of a murder that happened in his small town in Illinois in the 1920s. The narrator, who himself had a rough childhood because his mother died when he was young, was once friends with a boy whose father was the accused murderer. The narrator now feels guilty that he didn't try to help the boy back th [...]\nRating: 4.5* of fiveMy review was a surprise to me, funnily enough. All the way through the book, loaded as always with Author Maxwell's beautiful prose, I was sure that this later-career effort would get not-quite four stars.

        "title": "07-1042 -- Barrus v. Hopf -- 06/26/2007",
        "raw_content": "TOM W. BARRUS,\nNANCY A. HOPF; CHRISTINE E. SCHOBER; AMY E. RICHARDS; JACQUELINE R. GUESNO; STEPHEN B. McCROHAN; JAMES F. O'CONNOR; and DAVID S. KAPLAN,\n(D.C. No. 06-CV-1832-BNB)\nTom W. Barrus appeals the district court's dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1983 action and moves to proceed in forma pauperis. Because Barrus seeks intervention in a state criminal court proceeding, the district court held that his claim is barred by Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37 (1971). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1291.(1) We GRANT the motion to proceed in forma pauperis and DISMISS the appeal.\nBarrus is a pretrial detainee at the Arapahoe County Detention Facility in Centennial, Colorado. He filed an amended pro se complaint in federal district court, alleging violations of his Sixth Amendment rights to counsel and a speedy trial in connection with criminal proceedings against him in Colorado. Finding that Barrus sought intervention in a pending state court criminal proceeding, the district court dismissed his complaint as barred by Younger.\nBarrus concedes that Younger controls his case, but contends that the district court erred in its application of that doctrine. See Younger, 401 U.S. at 46. Specifically, he argues that the excessive length of his pretrial detention is the relevant irreparable injury. He claims the district court erred in treating the pending state court trial as his claimed injury and in failing to consider \"the bad faith or harassment exception of Younger.\"\nWe review de novo a district court's abstention under Younger. Joseph A. ex rel. Wolfe v. Ingram, 275 F.3d 1253, 1266 (10th Cir. 2002). Under the Younger abstention doctrine, federal courts should ordinarily refrain from interfering in ongoing state criminal proceedings. 401 U.S. at 45. To justify intervention, a plaintiff must face irreparable injury that is both great and immediate. Id. at 46. \"Certain types of injury, in particular, the cost, anxiety, and inconvenience of having to defend against a single criminal prosecution,\" are not irreparable injuries. Id. Although Barrus claims the length of his pretrial detention constitutes an irreparable injury, he has not shown that his detention is excessive or otherwise impermissible. In other words, he has failed to claim any special threat to his liberties beyond those normally associated with a criminal prosecution.\nIn addition, Barrus seeks to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1915(a)(3), the district court denied his motion because it found that an appeal could not be taken in good faith. On his renewed motion before this court, we conclude that his argument that we consider the length of his pretrial detention is nonfrivolous. See McIntosh v. U.S. Parole Comm'n, 115 F.3d 809, 812 (10th Cir. 1997). We GRANT Barrus' motion to proceed in forma pauperis, and DISMISS his appeal. Barrus remains obligated to comply with our order of May 24, 2007, assessing partial payments. We DISMISS all other pending motions.\n*.The case is unanimously ordered submitted without oral argument pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2) and 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 32.1.\n1. Although Barrus' notice of appeal was filed more than 30 days after the district court entered the order dismissing his claim, his appeal is timely under Fed. R. Civ. P. 58(b)(2)(B). Because the district court did not enter a separate Rule 58 judgment, we deem the judgment to have been entered 150 days from the entry of the order. Barrus' notice of appeal was filed within 150 days of the entry of the order.",

        "raw_content": "In rural areas it is often difficult to attract the best doctors. And in the less developed areas of the world, poor roads and low income make the situation even worse, leading to even greater inequality in the standard of care available.\nRural areas with exodus of doctors, including those with certain specialties, have similar needs.\nSatellite can change this. Satellite technology can provide a solution by bringing services in a private and secure manner. Doctors, located in hospitals many miles away are able to help local doctors with diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of the more complex patients.\nA local hospital or clinic can be provided with a VSAT (very small aperture satellite terminal) connected to a computer for instantaneous two-way communication between the two facilities. This connection can take place locally and between countries.\nIn the event of a natural disaster \u2013 hurricane or earthquake for example \u2013 having this infrastructure already in place can be invaluable. Terrestrial communications are almost always damaged in these situations and can take days or even months to restore. During these times, as well as providing much needed medical care, satellite communication can be used to coordinate relief efforts.",

        "raw_content": "The Severe Side of Life \u2013 The Lord is My Constant Companion - Thursday, June 28th\nHe who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, \u201cMy refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust \u2026. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark \u2026. Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. With a long life I will satisfy him and let him see My salvation. Psalm 91:1-2, 4, 14-16 (NASB)\nIt should be noted that we can develop an ability to be aware of him when we are on the go and we can stop and look to him (go home) in concentrated moments with him. But even so, the images of \u201cdwelling in the shelter of the Most High\u201d and \u201cabiding in the shadow of the Almighty,\u201d will help us remember how important it is to have a daily quiet time with God (shelter) that carries over (shadow) into our world of life on the go. Developing this kind of relationship with God will make all the difference in how we are impacted by the particularly troublesome things we have been talking about this week.\nNotice the image of the mother bird in our Psalm. Use this image in your quiet times to help you picture yourself as being sheltered under His wings. In addition, use this image when you are on the go to help you picture yourself as being under the shadow of his wings. Regularly being in the shelter and shadow of God\u2019s presence causes us to grow in our ability to love and know God as our constant companion. Notice from the rest of the Psalm how growing in our ability to love and know God opens the door for him to be at work in our lives in some pretty amazing and powerful ways.\nI'm having some small security issues with my latest blog and I'd like to\nLink exchange is nothing else but it is only placing the other person's blog link on your\nWow!

So he attacks and destroys that image,\u201d Pope Francis said June 1 during Mass in the Domus Sanctae Marthae.\nFrom the beginning of time, as the Book of Genesis recounts, he said, the devil has tried \u201cto destroy that harmony between man and woman that the Lord created, that harmony that derives from being the image and likeness of God.\u201d\nThe injustice that leaves millions of people starving, exploitation, modern slavery and torture \u2014 \u201ceven 70 years after the (U.N.) Declaration of Human Rights\u201d \u2014 are all forms of persecution, he said.\n\u201cCultural colonization,\u201d or the pressure some nations place on others to accept practices that go against their own culture, is another form of persecution, the pope said. Pope Francis often has denounced the practice by which wealthy donor nations try to impose acceptance of abortion, contraception or liberal attitudes toward homosexuality and gay marriage on poorer countries as a condition for aid.\nThe list must include war, which is one of the major \u201cinstruments of the destruction of people, of the image of God,\u201d he said, and those who plan war and traffic weapons are involved in destroying what God created.\nIn the biblical story of Adam and Eve, he said, the devil was able to succeed by using \u201ctrickery, seduction. These are the weapons he uses.\u201d\n\u201cToday, too, there is a force \u2014 I\u2019d call it a rage \u2014 against men and women,\u201d Pope Francis said.\nPREVIOUS: Mass attendance is down again \u2014 but among whom?\nNEXT: Increasing Mass attendance in an era of religious decline",

        "title": "Rantings of a Civil War Historian \u00bb Full Response to Andrea Custer",
        "raw_content": "This is the full 5,500 word response to Andrea Custer\u2019s interpretation of Farnsworth\u2019s Charge as we submitted it to Blue & Gray magazine:\nWe read, with great interest, the recent article on Farnsworth\u2019s Charge by Gettysburg Licensed Battlefield Guide Andrea Custer. We\u2019ve heard about her theory for years, so it was good to see it spelled out in detail at last. Although the breadth of her research should be applauded, her results unfortunately do not pass muster, and cannot be accepted as the accurate interpretation of these events. Andrea is a respected guide and historian, who has done laudable work across the spectrum of historiography. When one chooses to rewrite established accepted events, however, the interpretation must be placed through the most demanding rigors of scrutiny and examination.\nIf we understand the theory correctly, the proponent argues that the present, accepted interpretation of where these events occurred is inaccurate, and that the mounted cavalry charge actually happened half a mile or so from where the National Park Service and all conventional accounts place them. The basis for this claim is that the 5th New York Cavalry monument was originally misplaced and moved approximately half a mile to the peak of Bushman\u2019s Hill, and because the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association (\u201cGBMA\u201d) had rules requiring that the monuments reflecting the regiments of a given brigade were to be established in a fashion that reflected the brigade\u2019s line of battle. Therefore, if there was a brigade line among Farnsworth\u2019s other regiments, it too, must be shifted half a mile south, apparently in keeping with the setting of the regimental monuments in that brigade line. The author further asserts that Farnsworth was mortally wounded at the outset of the charge (shot down by a member of the 1st Texas Infantry) and not later by the 15th Alabama as the accepted version of events states.\nThe author\u2019s cited authority for these propositions is the minutes of the GBMA. Specifically, she cites to certain minutes and claims that they support her position. While nobody disputes that the 5th New York\u2019s monument was originally badly misplaced by Col. John Hammond and was subsequently relocated, the theory breaks down after that. Nothing set forth in the GBMA minutes reflects or otherwise even suggests that any monument other than that of the 5th New York Cavalry was to be moved (despite the author\u2019s claims to the contrary), and neither is there any documentation among any veteran account or regimental history, nor is there any other primary source that the monuments to the 1st Vermont Cavalry or 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry were placed with any relationship whatsoever to the original location of the 5th New York\u2019s.\nOn page 58 of her article, Custer contends:\nHammond\u2019s mistake did not affect his regiment alone. Bachelder and the GBMA assigned regimental monument locations for the 1st Vermont, 18th Pennsylvania and 1st West Virginia in proximity to Hammond\u2019s 5th New York site based on the regulation that all regimental monuments would be on the same line where the brigade formed for battle\u2026 Therefore, the assigned sites for each of the remaining regimental monuments were to the left of the 5th New York according to their battle alignment.\nThe fundamental question to be asked, therefore, is whether this assertion of fact is actually true. If it is not true, then the basic underpinnings of the author\u2019s theory collapse under their own weight. As her authority for this statement, Custer cites her Gettysburg Magazine article \u201cJohn Hammond\u2019s Mis-Stake\u201d, which was published in Issue No. 30, January 2004. In other words, she cites herself as if she were a primary source. In that article, specifically on page 107, she discusses this idea of the other two monuments being placed simply in relation to the incorrect original location of the 5th New York\u2019s monument. Therein she makes the identical assertion, but curiously provides absolutely no historical documentation whatsoever, even though the rest of the article is footnoted (as are all pieces in this particular popular magazine). In other words, this is asserted as a statement of fact, but is not footnoted. Thus, there is no evidence of there being any authority to support it. Having made this assertion once previously, without any source documentation at all, the author has apparently assumed the role of becoming her own primary source in this new article in order to provide substantiation for a theory that has no basis in the historical record.\nSo let us look instead at what the veterans themselves had to say, all of which is in direct contradiction to the author\u2019s claims. At the September 11, 1889 dedication of the 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry\u2019s monument, main speaker Lt. Col. John W. Phillips, who participated in the charge, stated:\nThe boulevard opened by the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association marks the whole line of battle of the last day\u2019s struggle. It is fitting that, on this line\u2026 we, the survivors of the Eighteenth Pennsylvania Cavalry, should meet and solemnly dedicate this monument, which, on this same extended line, has been erected on the spot where we stood that day, as a memento of the fact that we participated in the grand event.(emphasis added)\nThe boulevard Phillips referred to here was the recently opened Confederate Avenue, which was paved and improved a few years later and which still exists today. Phillips\u2019 comment that the monument marks \u201cthe spot\u201d where they stood speaks for itself. Phillips closed his long remarks with the following transfer of the regimental monument to the GBMA:\nTo you of the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association, its keeping is irrevocably committed. Take and care for it, and may it ever stand in its place on this line, so that when in the aftertime our children and children\u2019s children visit these scenes, they may be reminded of the honored part their fathers took in this battle\u2026(emphasis added)\nThis final comment is particularly revealing. Does the wish \u201cmay it ever stand in its place on this line\u201d sound like the monument was placed anywhere other than where it was supposed to be, or that anyone anticipated that it was ever to be moved? Hardly. In fact, just the opposite is apparent. The author would have us instead believe, as she states time and time again in this and other articles she has written on the subject, that the veterans expected their monuments to someday be relocated since they were temporarily placed only in relation to the incorrect placement of the 5th New York\u2019s. The author would have us further believe that no single surviving veteran of the 18th Pennsylvania, 1st Vermont, or 1st West Virginia had any idea where they were located or fought on July 3, 1863, just 25 years earlier, and simply picked an arbitrary location in relation to the 5th New York\u2019s monument based on an imaginary \u201cbrigade line.\u201d There simply is no evidence anywhere in the historic record to suggest that these monuments were temporarily placed, and that the veterans intended to relocate them.\nLet us further look at what the record concerning the 1st Vermont Cavalry\u2019s monument has to say. In the Report of the Vermont Commissioners (1890) of the state\u2019s Gettysburg monuments, written the year following the dedication of the monument, it is recorded:\nThe monument marks the position where the charging squadrons encountered a most destructive converging fire, and near which their gallant leader in the charge, Gen. Farnsworth was killed.\nThere is no doubt that this original location is where the monument was intended to stand for all time, and it marks exactly what its inscription says it marks. Nothing is said about a contemplated move of the monument in the entirety of the report, or anywhere else in the historical record.\nInterestingly, the report next states:\nIt has been and still is in contemplation by the survivors of Farnsworth\u2019s brigade, to erect a Cavalry Brigade Monument on the line from which these heroic troopers made their famous charge (emphasis added).\nThis is an extremely revealing statement. Survivors of Farnsworth\u2019s Brigade originally intended to erect another, separate monument, perhaps featuring a portrait statue of Farnsworth himself, at the Bushman Hill area where the charge generated. An October 1888 article that was published in The National Tribune describes another proposed monument: it was to be a five-sided granite pedestal, with each side dedicated to each of the regiments and the battery attached to the brigade, and surmounted by a standing heroic figure of Farnsworth. The National Tribune article also states specifically that this proposed brigade monument (the reasons why it was never erected are lost to history) was to be placed at the spot where Farnsworth fell, adjacent to the monument to the 1st Vermont Cavalry. This is further proof that the present monument of the 1st Vermont regiment, in its present location, was primarily intended to mark the spot near where Farnsworth fell, and that it has absolutely nothing to do with any \u201cbrigade line\u201d asserted by the author. That particular effort was to be left to the erection of another, altogether separate monument.\nIn his October 9, 1889 address at the dedication of Vermont\u2019s monuments at Gettysburg, Col. Wheelock Veazey, the lead orator, stated:\nIn front of Round Top, the First Vermont cavalry followed the heroic Farnsworth in that reckless, but most gallant, charge upon the lines of Law\u2019s infantry brigade\u2026 This is the well-selected location for a monument to the brave riders in eighty-six battles and engagements of the war in which they participated (emphasis added).\nVeteran William Wells was, of course, in attendance along with other veterans of the regiment, and Wells was a member of the Veteran Committee that selected the location for the monument to the place where Farnsworth fell. At the dedication of the 1st Vermont Cavalry\u2019s monument that day, Wells was the main speaker and was followed by Capt. Henry C. Parsons, who later purchased the Slyder farm, including the D-shaped field where the 1st Vermont Cavalry\u2019s monument was placed. Both described details of the charge in that area, without so much as a mention that everyone was perhaps standing in a location, and surrounding a monument, that was some one-half mile in the wrong place (as the author would have us believe). Of particular note is the fact that the Monument Commission described the nearby section of the battlefield road (known today as Confederate Avenue) that skirts the D-shaped Slyder farm field as \u201cKilpatrick Avenue.\u201d This name is also to be found on captions of Tipton pictures of the area, GBMA maps, and in minute book references.\nThis theory of moving monuments also fails in practice. According to the author\u2019s theory, all of the monuments to Farnsworth\u2019s Brigade needed to be placed in a brigade line, and that the monuments to the 1st Vermont and 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry regiments were misplaced and had to be moved in order to keep them in brigade line with the re-located monument to the 5th New York Cavalry. The author cites to GBMA minutes that spell out the \u201cbrigade line\u201d rules as the authority for the proposition. In her interpretation, these rules were cast in stone, and there were no exceptions.\nAs set forth below, these \u201cbrigade line\u201d rules certainly were not cast in stone, and here are but a few examples among many:\n1. The Union monuments on East Cavalry Field are most assuredly NOT in brigade lines. The 3rd Pennsylvania Cavalry\u2019s monument is on the flank, where its men made their most significant contribution to the Union victory. The 1st New Jersey Cavalry\u2019s monument is at the edge of the Rummell farm, where they spent most of the day fighting hard. The 1st Maine Cavalry\u2019s monument is across the Hanover Road from the Spangler House, reflecting the fact that this regiment was held in reserve for the entire battle and never fired a shot in anger that day. The Michigan Cavalry Brigade monument\u2013a monument to a brigade and not its individual regiments\u2013is located on the spot where the charge of the 1st Michigan Cavalry crashed into the charging Confederate cavalry, and not in a position that reflects where the 5th and 6th Michigan Cavalry fought, or where the 7th Michigan made its charge. The 5th, for instance, fought dismounted in the fields surrounding the Rummell barn, and was nowhere near the spot where the brigade monument stands. The monument to the 1st Maryland Cavalry stands in the middle of East Cavalry Field, even though its men really weren\u2019t engaged. The same holds true for the single company of Pernell\u2019s Legion that were with Gregg that day.\n2. Merritt\u2019s brigade monuments also are not in anything resembling a brigade line. The monuments to the 1st, 2nd, and 6th U. S. are on the ridgeline at the very southern end of the field, where the monument to Graham\u2019s battery stands. The 6th U. S. Cavalry didn\u2019t even fight at Gettysburg; their engagement was at Fairfield. They were not present. The 6th Pennsylvania Cavalry\u2019s monument reflects its primary skirmish line for most of the afternoon, and the 5th U. S. Cavalry\u2019s monument reflects its flanking movements. These units are NOT in anything that remotely resembles a brigade line.\n3. What about the monuments to the regiments of Col. Pennock Huey\u2019s cavalry brigade, which never made it north of the Mason-Dixon line during the three days of the battle? These units have monuments on Pleasonton Avenue, next to the Pennsylvania Memorial. If the \u201cbrigade line\u201d rule was hard and fast, how can regiments that never even made it to the battlefield have monuments on the field at all? Obviously, an exception was made, or these units would not have monuments on the battlefield.\n4. There\u2019s also the monument to the 1st West Virginia Cavalry on the Taneytown Road. If, in fact, this \u201cbrigade line\u201d rule was a hard and fast rule, despite what is asserted in the GBMA records, why would the 1st West Virginia have been permitted to place its monument there, irrespective of whether the rest of the so-called \u201cbrigade line\u201d was misplaced?\n5. Finally, there\u2019s the issue of the monuments to the 1st Vermont, 18th Pennsylvania, and 5th New York. Let\u2019s keep in mind that the 5th New York did not participate in the charge. After getting clobbered at Hanover on June 30, it spent the day of July 3 supporting Elder\u2019s Battery. Thus, it is properly placed atop Bushman\u2019s Hill. The monument to the 18th Pennsylvania is placed at the point of its farthest advance, not in any \u201cbrigade line.\u201d The 1st Vermont\u2019s monument marks the climax of the charge, at the point where the charge ended, and its brigade commander mortally wounded, far behind enemy lines. Its charge was separate and distinct from the rest of the brigade, its monument placement reflects this, and the inscription states that it is at a spot near where Farnsworth fell. Thus, the monuments of this brigade, evidenced by their very inscriptions, do not support the author\u2019s own theory.\nWe suggest that perhaps there is a misreading of the GBMA\u2019s intentions regarding monument placements on \u201cbrigade lines\u201d on the part of the author. If one reads carefully through the GBMA minutes records from 1872 through 1895, which are readily available online at the Gettysburg Discussion Group\u2019s website (http://www.gdg.org), it quickly becomes apparent that the \u201cbrigade line\u201d rule was not instituted for the purposes stated by Custer. The rule was instituted in 1887 (see minute records for December 16 of that year) to deal with the confusion that future battlefield visitors may experience since Federal regiments had differing positions from July 1 to July 3. In addition, some Confederate units at the time had proposed placing monuments on and, in some cases, behind Federal lines, much to the outcry of Union veterans. In contradiction to the author\u2019s assertion, then, the rule was not instituted as some response to Hammond\u2019s incorrect placement of his monument, but instead to deal with the broader issues of future interpretation of battlefield positions and so that there would be rules for Confederate monument placements.\nWhen one considers that the 1st Vermont Cavalry\u2019s monument specifically states that it marks Farnsworth\u2019s nearby death site, and the Vermont Monument Commission and the GBMA intended for it to mark as such (instead of a theoretical \u201cbrigade line\u201d), the very idea that the author proposes that such a monument should be moved to comport with a more \u201ccorrect\u201d battle line makes no sense. We encourage everyone to read through the minutes for themselves, to take note of the environment in which the rule was instituted, and it will become apparent that these regulations had nothing whatsoever to do with the placements of the monuments to Farnsworth\u2019s other regiments in light of what they were originally intended by all to mark.\nIn addition, an 1890 map prepared by the War Department to indicate where the existing GBMA and public roads were, where new park roads were proposed, and which shows the placement of all the U. S. Regular monuments, recently surfaced in the collection of the Adams County Historical Society. It has never been published before. That portion of it dealing with Farnsworth\u2019s Charge and South Cavalry Field is reproduced here for the first time, courtesy of Executive Director Wayne Motts of the Adams County Historical Society. This map indicates that the War Department\u2019s proposed Cavalry Avenue did not track\u2014or even come close to\u2014where the author places it. Instead, it connects Elder\u2019s Battery atop Bushman\u2019s Hill with the Regular monuments along the Emmitsburg Road at the southern end of the field. Note that it passes through the D-shaped field\u2014where the 1st Vermont Cavalry monument now sits\u2014through the Slyder Farm, and then connects with what is today called Merritt Avenue, the seldom-visited grassy lanes that connect the monument to the 5th U. S. Cavalry and a detachment marker on either side of Ridge Road. It then continues south to connect up with the Regular monuments. Therefore, in direct contradiction to Custer\u2019s asserted plan and location of Cavalry Avenue, the proposed road actually passes by and connects the present-day monuments of Farnsworth\u2019s Brigade (minus the 1st West Virginia, located on Taneytown Road) and those of Merritt\u2019s Regulars. In her article, Custer asserts that the veterans \u201chad to put them [the monuments] somewhere\u201d and that they were \u201cawaiting construction of the promised road.\u201d There is no documentation cited to support this contention, and none has been found in the GBMA records or anywhere else. This newly discovered map, combined with the fact that the author has no historical record to substantiate her statement, undercuts the primary basis of her theory. The proposed avenue, therefore, was actually designed to connect and support the locations of the monuments, not to move them from their present-day locations.\nIf that\u2019s not enough to disprove this theory, then let\u2019s look at some documentary evidence. John B. Bachelder was hired by the War Department to write a history of the Battle of Gettysburg. To that end, he solicited input from the veterans, to get the story\u2014and the placement of the monuments\u2014correct. On January 13, 1883, an article by Bachelder was published in the \u201cAnnals of the War\u201d section of the Philadelphia Weekly Times newspaper. Bachelder\u2019s account places the charge precisely where the traditional accounts put it. Here\u2019s what Colonel Bachelder had to say:\nI have received several communications asking me the particulars of this \u2018exciting episode\u2019. It was not my fortune to be an eye-witness of the thrilling scene alluded to, but by persevering inquiry I have gathered so many facts concerning it, and the affair itself was of so much strategic importance that your correspondent\u2019s account would seem to imply, that I cheerfully contribute the following details, with the hope that any error which I may have been led into will be corrected before it is embodied in my forthcoming history of the battle.\nThe account published in the newspaper article matches the one in Bachelder\u2019s book, meaning that none of the veterans came forward to challenge his interpretation. The Weekly Times was widely read, as many enjoyed the nearly 200 articles by leading participants in the war, and of which 56 were published in book form as The Annals of the War. The point is that Bachelder\u2019s interpretation is based exclusively and specifically upon the accounts of the veterans, and all placed these events on Bushman\u2019s Hill, the Slyder Farm, and in the D-shaped field on the front slope of Big Round Top. The fact that none of the veterans came forward to dispute this certainly goes a long way toward demonstrating that the monuments are properly placed and that they accurately reflect where these events occurred.\nLt. Col. Addison W. Preston commanded the 1st Vermont Cavalry on July 3, 1863. Preston wrote two official reports. One was published in the Official Records. The other, to the Adjutant General of Vermont, was published in the August 10, 1863 issue of the Rutland Weekly Herald, a weekly paper from Rutland, VT. Here\u2019s Lt. Col. Preston\u2019s take on Farnsworth\u2019s Charge (which does not include the account of the rest of the campaign):\nJuly 3, in the attack made by General Kilpatrick on the right flank of the enemy at Gettysburg this cavalry led the advance. Co.\u2019s A, D, E, and I, dismounted, were deployed as skirmishers and soon drove the enemy\u2019s skirmishers back of their main lines. The contest was continued by the opposing batteries and dismounted carbineers until five o\u2019clock p.m., when General Farnsworth, commanding the brigade, was ordered to charge the enemy, strongly posted behind stone walls and in the woods, and which proved to be Major General Hood\u2019s division of infantry. With the 1st [West] Virginia Cavalry on the left, and the second battalion of the 1st Vermont, under Major Wells, on the right, General Farnsworth dashed forward, closely followed by his men, leaping one stone wall under a severe fire. Our force drove the enemy in all directions; over still another stone wall and through a field swept by the rebel batteries, and succeeded in piercing the enemy\u2019s second line, where many of our dead were found. I moved to the support of the 2nd battalion with the 1st under Captain Parsons, and a part of the 3rd under Captain Grover. On the hill between the two walls we encountered a fresh regiment of the enemy, sent in from the right to intercept the retreat of our first column and to re-establish their lines. The struggle for this hill became most desperate but was at length carried by our boys with severe loss, the greater part of the enemy being captured. Our loss this day, killed, wounded, and missing, 75 men.\nThere\u2019s lots of interest here. First, it demonstrates that Farnsworth did NOT fall at the outset of the charge, as contended by the author\u2019s alternate theory, but rather cleared the wall and proceeded through the 1st Texas, as the traditional, conventional account suggests.\nSecond, Preston\u2019s report clearly places these events in the area of the field where the accepted account places them. The alternate theory does not have a struggle for a hill. Likewise, Preston describes the Slyder farm field, and not the heavily wooded area where the alternate theory\u2019s events occur. It only makes sense if we\u2019re referring to either Warfield\u2019s Ridge, or, more likely, either the front slope of Big Round Top, where the 1st Vermont\u2019s monument is, or Bushman\u2019s Hill, where a portion of the regiment made its way back to safety.\nThird, and most important, the area swept by the enemy batteries (Bachmann and Reilly) only makes sense if it\u2019s where the traditional interpretation of these events places it. These batteries could not have been engaged in firing canister if the charge occurred where the alternative theory places it, some one-half mile away and out of canister range of the batteries.\nOne of Kilpatrick\u2019s veterans, a soldier named William Small, published a pamphlet in 1887, a few years after the death of Judson Kilpatrick. The pamphlet is titled Campfire Talk on the Life and Military Services of Maj. Gen. Judson Kilpatrick, and is quite rare. Here\u2019s what Small had to say about the location of the charge:\nIn one of these charges, and the most important one, the brave General Farnsworth, commander of the 1st Brigade, was killed after he and his brave followers rode several miles beyond the skirmish line, the enemy contesting every inch of the way, but though many of the boys in blue \u2018bit the dust,\u2019 they halted not nor wavered until they had driven the foe from position after position and from two stone barricades; halted not nor wavered until they had crossed Plum [Run] Creek and reached the base of Round Top; halted not nor wavered until all but a mere handful were either killed or captured. (emphasis added)\nAgain, this is further evidence that the traditional interpretation is the one supported by the accounts of the veterans.\nThen, there is the account of Capt. George Hillyer of the 9th Georgia Infantry. Although it\u2019s recently been published, it\u2019s always been available to the author of the article; a copy of it has been in the National Park Service archives at GNMP for years. Here\u2019s what Hillyer says about these events:\nSoon afterwards I saw a column of Kilpatrick\u2019s cavalry break through the thin line of the 1st Texas (the latter not having men enough to have more than about one to every five or six steps). They came galloping through the intervening ground toward where one of our batteries was posted on the rising ground, to the left of where we were.\nThe 9th Georgia was positioned near the end of the Confederate line, in supporting distance of Bachmann\u2019s battery, which was positioned on Warfield Ridge, near the present-day Alabama monument. Thus, unless Hillyer was completely wrong, the author\u2019s attempt to relocate the charge must be erroneous.\nConsider an account left in 1892 by Lt. Col. Thomas W. Hyde of the 7th Maine Infantry. Standing near the Federal signal station atop Little Round Top on the afternoon of July 3, Hyde heard firing from the area around Devil\u2019s Den and spotted a large mass of charging Federal Cavalry. He noted that Farnsworth\u2019s men \u201cseemed\u2026to have penetrated quite a distance into the enemy\u2019s lines, but as the ground became opener it was hard to see them charging over fences and up to the woods only to be destroyed by the deliberate fire of the Southern rifle.\u201d Had the action taken place where Custer purports, it would have been impossible for Hyde to see the charging troopers.\nLikewise is an account left by Brig. Gen. Henry L. Benning, commander of a brigade of Confederate infantry, and published in the Southern Historical Society Papers in 1877. From his position atop Houck\u2019s Ridge, Benning watched as Farnsworth\u2019s troopers galloped in front of his post. Benning could not have seen the troopers had the action occurred where Custer places it.\nThe author refers to a letter to John Bachelder by Sgt. Thomas Grier of the 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry, found in Volume 3 of Ladd and Ladd\u2019s The Bachelder Papers (p. 1541-44). In his letter, after visiting the field, Grier states that he saw Hammond\u2019s stake marking the proposed location for the 5th New York\u2019s monument, and that he has \u201cgrave doubts as to its correctness.\u201d Here, Grier is speaking only of the ORIGINAL proposed location for the 5th New York Cavalry\u2019s monument, not its relocated position supporting the guns of Elder\u2019s Battery. However, the author failed to include the entire quote, including Grier\u2019s closing remark regarding Bachelder\u2019s map of the regiment\u2019s locations in the action depicting the traditional and present-day placement: \u201cYour map is substantially correct.\u201d In the interest of full disclosure, this exculpatory statement should have been included by the author.\nThe same holds true for the September 1888 letter by Col. William C. Oates to Bachelder, also located in Volume 3 of The Bachelder Papers. Much is made of Oates\u2019 statements about Farnsworth\u2019s manner of death and location, but the author failed to include a statement by Oates in that letter in which he writes, \u201cI think that particular little copse of trees where he [Farnsworth] fell had been cleared & cultivated when I visited Gettysburg a few years ago.\u201d This could only apply to the Slyder Farm field where the 1st Vermont Cavalry monument is presently located, as no cultivation can be documented in the woods where the author has attempted to place Farnsworth\u2019s death site.\nMost revealing, however, is the lengthy letter by Evander Law to Bachelder of June 13, 1876, found in Volume 1. The author has cherry-picked selective quotes from the letter to provide, at best, circumstantial evidence for her theory. However, Law\u2019s letter references a multitude of Bachelder\u2019s map location numbers, placing his Confederate locations, and the locations and movements of Farnsworth\u2019s troopers, exactly where the map places them in the traditional interpretation, and upon which Bachelder eventually evaluated the proposed monument locations. The majority of the letter, then, confirms the accepted interpretation of the action and places events exactly where the monuments are now located.\nFinally, there is the only known account of these events by Maj. William Wells of the 1st Vermont Cavalry, who was later awarded a Medal of Honor for his valor that day. Writing in January 1887, Wells responded to an inquiry about the events of July 3, 1863. Wells\u2019 letter to Col. Carle Woodruff can be found in the Orlando B. Wilcox Papers:\nRelating to Gen Farnsworth\u2019s Brigade at Gettysburg Pa July 3d 1863. The 1st West Virginia Cavalry and the 2nd Battalion of 1st Vermont Cavalry were ordered to charge. I was Major in command of the four cos above named. The 1st Virginia moved as far to the front as possible on our left, but were unable to break the lines of the enemy of course did not form a part of the charging column. Gen Farnsworth rode by my side at the head of the battalion. We broke the first line of the enemy, passed over two stone fences, where we met another force of the enemy. About this time General Farnsworth\u2019s horse was shot. We became separated. Suppose he must have joined us later, but have no recollection of seeing him again. As soon as his horse was shot David P. Truman a private soldier in C Company dismounted and gave the General his horse. Should say the distance from first point where we broke the enemy\u2019s line to point where we turned back, was fully three fourths of a mile.\nThis letter is further evidence that Farnsworth did not fall at the beginning of the charge.\nOne other point needs to be made. Other than the newspaper account by New York Times correspondent E. A. Paul, there are no other reliable accounts that suggest that Farnsworth was shot down by the 1st Texas. In fact, the overwhelming majority of accounts indicate that Farnsworth\u2014along with Capt. Oliver W. Cushman, who rode at his side\u2014was shot down by men of the 15th Alabama. If these events occurred where the conventional interpretation places them, they had only a couple of hundred yards at best to move from the Devil\u2019s Kitchen area (where the modern-day parking lot for Big Round Top is located) to the D-shaped field. Reacting to an emergency, there would not have been much time for them to respond and deploy into a skirmish line.\nConversely, if these events occurred where Custer places them, the 15th Alabama would have had to dash across nearly a mile of ground, likely under fire at least part of the way, in order to meet the charge. There are no accounts that suggest that they did so. There would not have been time, and to do so would have been foolhardy and unnecessary, as there would have been other units available to do just that. The facts themselves do not support the claim, and neither do logic or common sense.\nWe have only touched on the voluminous primary source evidence that disputes this attempted revision of the facts of Farnsworth\u2019s Charge. In light of the above, we do not believe that the evidence supports the conclusions she states on p. 61 of her article. On this particular page, her statements are presented as if they are fact, when there is not only no basis in the historical record (and she provides no footnotes as such), the historic evidence soundly refutes them.\nIn light of all of the foregoing, we did not believe that we could permit this version of these events to go unchallenged. The evidence does not support them, and, instead, supports the traditional view and traditional placement of Farnsworth\u2019s Charge. When all of the evidence is evaluated, we hope that your readers will see it that way, too. It is how the veterans saw it, and comports with how they placed their monuments\u2014monuments that (except for the admitted original misplacement of the 5th New York\u2019s) the veterans intended to remain in their place for all time.",

        "raw_content": "Written by Jonathan on August 15, 2018 in Dog Training, Pet, Puppy\nIf you have decided that you want to get a furry friend, you are definitely making one of the best decisions of your life! At the same time, it is important to understand that it is also one of the biggest decisions as well. After all, a pooch is a living, breathing creature that has quite a few wants and needs. Don\u2019t worry, though, there is no need to feel overwhelmed. Instead, just go through this article to see some of the ways that you can prepare before bringing your good boy or girl home with you:\nWalking into a pet store can be an incredibly tempting experience. There are so many toys, outfits, and other items that you simply want to buy them all. Well, now\u2019s not the time for that and you should really stick to the basics in the beginning. This means dog food, bowls, collar potty tools (scooper, bags, puppy pads, etc.), a dog bed, and yes a toy or two. That first trip to the pet store is all about making sure that you have the right things to make sure that your pup is fed, comfortable, and happy. Later on, you can start adding onto this collection.\nYes, believe it or not, you should find a vet before you even get your pooch. To make things easier for you, it is a good idea to look for clinics in the nearby area. This way, in an emergency, you won\u2019t have to travel too far. That being said, you will need to make sure that the vet is properly qualified and that they have all of the necessary equipment and medications to keep your pup healthy. Look for online reviews and suggestions to see what other owners have to say about the care and service.\nYou will be surprised at just what it is your dog can get into when they are left unsupervised even for a moment. This is why you will need to pooch-proof your home, much in the same way that you would with a baby. You can start by putting all harmful and toxic things out of their reach. You may also need to section off certain areas of the house that you may think is dangerous for your pup. Some people prefer to crate train their pooch, at least for those first few days. Interestingly enough, baby gates are often useful in helping your pup stay in their designated area.\nLook for Trainers\nLike most people, there is a good chance that you will simply not have the time required to make sure that your pup is properly trained. This is why you might want to consider enrolling him or her in a program such as complete dog training. Here, you can be certain that professionals will be attending to your pooch from the very beginning, teaching them how to behave properly. Doing this can save you a great deal of time and frustration.\nThese are the preparations that you will need to make before you first bring your pup home. You can then make sure that you and your pooch have the best time together.",

        "raw_content": "The Prioritization of the Prisoner Community Versus the Host-Community in the Relocation of Utah\u2019s Draper State Prison\nA sea of carceral facilities has quietly seeped across the U.S. in the past several decades, yet almost no peer-reviewed research documenting the effect of a prison\u2019s location on prisoners exists. To begin reversing this silence, this paper realizes a case study of the siting process used to relocate Utah\u2019s Draper State Prison to Salt Lake City in 2015. Using official reports and audio from deliberation meetings, the analysis seeks to determine whether the siting process prioritized the wellbeing of the \u201coutside\u201d community\u2014defined as the local natural ecology and the host-community residents\u2014over that of the \u201cinside\u201d community\u2014defined as the prisoners\u2014in consideration of environmental factors. Ultimately, the study finds no evidence of a clear prioritization of either group by the commission\u2014the state legislators tasked with the siting decision\u2014who primarily discussed how environmental factors would hinder construction. Furthermore, the high poverty rates of the host-community complicate the initial assumption that prisoners would be vastly less politically enfranchised than those on the outside. As the first study to explore the effects of prison siting on prisoners themselves, this research exposes the need of continued research regarding America\u2019s urban prisons and the intersection of the environment and incarceration.",

He left his collection of negatives to the AA on his death in 1959, and they stand as a rich resource that document the concerns of the progressive architects of the period: over 1,000 of his large-format negatives from this period are held in the AA Photo Library. He later began to use colour film and there are also many fascinating early slides: these include images of the 1951 Festival of Britain as well as early modern houses in London.\nMany of his most memorable photographs were taken on the architectural trips abroad organized by AA Secretary (and celebrated photographer) Frank Yerbury: there are numerous images of new buildings in Sweden, Denmark, Austria and Switzerland. But also, and in this his subjects differ from Yerbury\u2019s own, many of his subjects are closer to home.

Finally, the complete third season makes its debut, with 26 episodes on four discs, plus a fifth disc full of nifty bonus features.\nMany fans are against this series for the way it took the Dark Knight into colorful camp territory, but watching the shows again reveals a deep affection for the character, and a kind of respect amongst all the silliness. Indeed, the writing in most of the episodes is much smarter than it may seem. The show also has a carefree attitude, as if the makers could try just about anything and get away with it. I used to love watching reruns of this show as a kid, and it's safe to say that I'm having just as much fun with them now.\nThis third season brought the very welcome introduction of Batgirl (Yvonne Craig), an appealing sex symbol for boys and a symbol of female power for girls. The rest of the beloved rogue's gallery returns, with Eartha Kitt taking over as Catwoman, plus Joan Collins (\"Siren\"), Ethel Merman (\"Lola Lasagne\"), Milton Berle, Anne Baxter, Rudy Vallee, Glynis Johns, Ida Lupino, Howard Duff, and Zsa Zsa Gabor joining in.

        "raw_content": "In a world where so much important work is being left undone, where needs are not being met and resources not being cared for appropriately, there should be no shortage of meaningful livelihoods anywhere on the planet.\n2.1 Relationships to other Needs\n3 Understanding patterns of abundance and scarcity\n3.1 The problem of alienation\n3.2 Needed work left undone\n3.3 Barriers to moving to more meaningful occupations\nAs members of the human community, we wish to make contributions to the larger community while providing for ourselves, commensurate with our abilities and our aspirations. We also expect commensurate support in return, which allows us to live in dignity. This is what earning a livelihood means; it may involve work for a monetary income, but it may also mean work in the household, and production for subsistence or barter. No person should be forced into work that they do not wish to do; if a job creates such hardship that nobody will voluntarily do it, payments or other rewards should be increased until somebody does voluntarily do it, or some way should be found to make that kind of labor unnecessary. In all cases, working people should have a large degree of autonomy, and share in the decisions that affect their working conditions and the benefits they gain from their work. Compensation for work must be large enough so that every working person can satisfy all their important needs. Under these conditions, any work that contributes productively to society can be meaningful. Any other type of work (for example, occupations that increase human misery) should be made unnecessary and eliminated. All these considerations should apply equally to all people, regardless of gender, skin color, ethnic or national origin, sexual orientation, religious or ideological belief, and so on. Then, we would live in a condition of abundance as far as work and livelihoods are concerned.\nRelationships to other Needs\nPeople should have clean air to breathe and clean water to drink at the workplace. There is important work to be done to assure that our air and water remain clean, and under exceptional conditions that work may require exposure to polluted air or water, but ultimately the goal must be to generate minimal pollution in the first place.\nSufficient and nutritious food, appropriate to one\u2019s cultural preferences and taste, is an important area where many jobs should be provided; income for all paid jobs needs to be sufficient to afford a healthy, nutritious diet.\nHaving a meaningful livelihood is a key aspect of being at home in the place where one lives.\nA meaningful livelihood is a major aspect of self-expression, that is, of expressing what it is that one finds meaningful in life. No livelihood would be meaningful for every person, while most livelihoods that contribute something useful to society are meaningful to at least some people.\nPeople need mobility in order to reach places of work. In many urban areas, particularly in cities where public transport is inadequate, there is a \u201cspatial mismatch,\u201d making it difficult for people from low-income areas to reach the locations where jobs are available. In such situations, either job opportunities need to emerge near where people live, or public transport needs to be improved.\nWorking and middle-class people all over the world are forced into jobs they dislike and to accept unacceptable working conditions by lack of economic security. Basic security is essential to create a truly free labor market \u2013 that is, a labor market in which every worker can freely decline any job offer. A meaningful livelihood conversely is an important condition for security, including food security, security in the case of illness, security in the face of old age.\nAs for all other needs, a meaningful livelihood needs to provide for adequate clothing and shelter. Many livelihoods are obtained within people's residences, including householding, many subsistence activities, and many artisanal occupations, so shelter can offer an important resource for a livelihood.\nThe social relationships at work should be supportive and empowering. In addition, people who have a meaningful and remunerative livelihood can effectively support others, including children, the elderly, the sick and the handicapped.\nAny livelihood require opportunities to learn to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge; all people must have access to learning opportunities if they are to have access to economic opportunities.\nA meaningful occupation must include participation in collective economic decision-making at the workplace.\nOne works in order to live, one does not live in order to work. Therefore, a meaningful occupation must allow enough time, before or after the work day, on weekdays and holidays, and during vacations, to allow for other things in life, including spiritual connection with one\u2019s deeper self and with a transcendent unity.\nIn order to support their own livelihoods, people need access to resources, including the means of production relevant to their work (which may include water, land, energy, living things, or physical, human-made assets), and to the knowledge and information that they need in order to do their work successfully. Only if access to those resources is widely distributed can most people have meaningful livelihoods.\nThe organizational forms that allow people to have access to the resources they need in order to support meaningful livelihoods are those that provide for shared ownership, control, benefits, and responsibilities, such that one or a few owners do not obtain most of the benefits at the expense of the rest. These are the organizational forms that are listed as approaches to creating greater abundance, within all clusters of organizational forms except the cluster of \"coercion and denial of choice.\"\nUnderstanding patterns of abundance and scarcity\nThe problem of alienation\nA meaningful livelihood is often regarded as a luxury only available to the well-educated or the rich \u2013 it is regarded as something very scarce. All the rest of us are supposed to simply accept whatever the labor market offers us, whether that's work on the assembly-line factory job, as an accountant, a salesperson, a marketer, a garbage collector, or a prostitute. This represents a very high degree of alienation. However, it need not be so.\nThe alienation on the job market results from the ways work is organized. One of the key factors that make employment as such scarce, even when there is very much work that needs to be done but which is undone, is the division between capitalists (owners of the means of production) and workers (everyone who works for a salary or wage, regardless of the kind of occupation). Capitalists do not have an interest in full employment, because in that case workers will only work if they are offered sufficiently high payment, and wages will increase. Only if most workplaces were collectively owned by the people working there (i.e., if they were worker cooperatives) would employers (i.e., the worker-owners) prioritize good working conditions, adequate wages, and full employment over the maximization of profits. If most companies were worker cooperatives, even privately owned companies would have to offer better working conditions in order to attract workers.\nMeaningful work has also been made scarce by expropriating local and indigenous communities of their land and other natural resources. If people have control over the land, water and biological resources that they need in order to provide for their needs, they can employ themselves, and decide for themselves how much they wish to produce for their subsistence needs directly, and how much they wish to produce for market or other exchange. Therefore, land and natural resource rights of local and indigenous communities need to be recognized or restored in order to ensure that they enjoy plentiful, self-determined livelihoods.\nHuge numbers of people are denied the more desirable or high-status livelihoods, or the education that is needed in order to qualify for those jobs, on the basis of their gender, their \u201crace\u201d (which is itself a social construct), their ethnic or national origin, their sexual orientation, their religion, or other similar characteristics. This is an imposed scarcity; abundance would mean that all people could aspire to the full range of occupations available in a society.\nSmall and medium enterprises (SMEs) provide the majority of livelihoods in many countries around the world. Although these are not typically organized as worker cooperatives, the distinction between capitalist and worker is often fuzzy in these enterprises, because the owner also does a large share of the work, a large number of the workers may become owners either of the enterprise where they are working or of a newly founded enterprise, and workers may informally share in a considerable portion of decision-making. Economic policies should thus be favorable to SMEs, to encourage their creation and success.\nNeeded work left undone\nA lot of work that needs to be done is left undone, because too little is done to prevent environmental harms and to correct the environmental harms that have already been done. This is because profit-maximizing companies avoid paying for the environmental costs they create, and government is unable to raise sufficient taxes to pay for all the cleanup. If environmental resources were managed as commons however, all users of the commons would have to contribute to the maintenance of those commons, generating meaningful employment in the protection of environmental quality.\nBarriers to moving to more meaningful occupations\nMany people who have found a remunerative livelihood do not find it meaningful, because it does not reflect their deep aspirations of what they want to do in life. They remain employed in their present jobs either because they are afraid of the transition (which may involve a period of time without income or require large investments), or they fear that the kind of job that they really would like to do would not pay enough to support themselves and possibly a family, or they do not know how to make the transition, or they have not taken the time to really answer the question of what they want in life. Any projects that can help people make such transitions to work that they would enjoy most, and where they could make the most substantial contribution to society, would promote abundance \u2013 placing more people into truly meaningful jobs.\nMost people with few capital resources do not risk becoming self-employed, starting their own company, or joining with others to start a cooperative because failure could mean destitution, and because a substantial amount of capital would have to be raised first. This means that they have only their labor to sell to potential employers, putting them at a severe disadvantage. Social welfare systems alleviate this problem to some extent in some of the wealthy countries, but as presently instituted, they usually create a disincentive to work at the low end of the income spectrum (where accepting a part-time job may cost an employee so much in foregone welfare payments that it's not worth working). Social welfare also fails to generate sufficient security for the risk involved in starting an own enterprise. The solution to this would consist of an unconditional basic income, paid out to all residents of a country no matter how much or little they earned. Then, earning even a small amount would make somebody better off (i.e., there would always be an incentive for paid work), and people starting a small business of their own could weather a period of time without income until their investments of time, effort and money started paying off. The revenue for such a guaranteed basic income could be generated from natural resource rents, that is, the income generated from charging users or polluters and users of natural resources that we all own in common.\nland and natural resource rights for local and indigenous communities\nnatural resource trusts and commons\nguaranteed basic income based on natural resource rents\nequal rights for women, oppressed ethnic or religious minorities, homosexuals, etc.\npolicies to support worker cooperatives\npolicies supporting SMEs\nalternative currencies that can support independent livelihoods\neducation that supports individuals' quest for meaning in life\nprograms to support people transitioning to jobs they find more meaningful\nMany more Links and Literature yet to be added!\nTags: livelihoods, meaningfulness, needs, work",

I hope you are sitting down. It's going to be $1.76 billion dollars over ten a ten year period starting in January 2013. What you are thinking at this moment cannot be printed. If it could be, it would probably include several familiar words. You are more than welcome to mumble them to yourself.\nLabels: CBO, Obama, ObamaCare, Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, President Obama, Romney Care, Ronmey, Supreme Court",

Extremely high quality construction.\nCons: On the more expensive end of the spectrum.\nSummary: An expertly-crafted machine that gives the Concept2 a run for its money as the best rower on the market.\nPros: Its wind resistance technology makes it most similar to the outdoor rowing experience.\nCons: Its seat isn't as comfortable as those of other machines.\nSummary: A good choice for those on a budget - especially if you prefer air-resistance rowers.\nPros: The most popular rowing machine on the market - by far. It's durability and performance are off the charts, and it is used by almost all professional rowers.\nCons: On the bulkier end, so it isn't super easy to store.\nSummary: The Ferrari of rowing machines.

Precisely because it is linked to intricate webs of life around it, the park may now be doomed by the rising water needs of Florida's farms and cities, plus the construction of a mammoth jetport a few miles away.

        "raw_content": "Home The Firemen\u2019s Record\nIn both volumes of The Firemen&apos;s Record, J. Albert Cassedy aims to account for all of the fires occurring in Baltimore from the beginning of the city&apos;s history until 1891 in the first book, and up to 1911 in the second, updated book. The 1911 version includes information on response to The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904, which raged for 30 hours from Sunday, February 7, to Monday, February 8, 1904, and destroyed 70 city blocks. Cassedy also discusses the history of the major fires of the rest of the world. He not only records the history of the fires, but also honors the fire fighters. In his words, \"The work of the Fire Department is before the eyes of the public, and needs no comment; it is an unbroken record of entire devotion to the exacting demands of an arduous and thankless calling; of tireless labor; of heroic self-sacrifice; of brave deeds done in secret, and the spirit of the Master carried into action amid blazing rafters and blinding rushes of smoke, and crashing walls and the shrieks of panic-stricken women and children.\" The books contain photomechanical reproductions including halftones of fire fighters and actual fires, and line block images of historical fires.\nProceeds from the sale of the books benefitted the \"Firemen&apos;s Relief Association,\" which was a system of cooperative insurance, including sick and injury benefits. Because of the danger of fighting fires, life insurance companies charged a very high premium to insure fire fighters. The Firemen&apos;s Relief Association provided benefits to fire fighters, helping them to get medical care or their families to pay for burial expenses, the costs of which were leveraged and paid by the entire membership.\nThe Special Collections also holds a copy of The Firemen&apos;s Record from 1925 in the Joseph L. Arnold Collection (Maryland History) . This copy has not been reproduced digitally and is only available in its original form. You may view all original versions at the Special Collections Reading Room.\nCredits: We would like to thank Kevin Larmore and Nicole Smith for digitizing these books. Kevin&apos;s desires to share the history of the Baltimore Fire Department with his fellow fire fighters and to learn more about his great-great-grandfather&apos;s legacy were the impetus to make these volumes available online. Kevin volunteered many long hours to create the digital versions of these books. Special Collections Student Assistant Nicole Smith took the lead on the project, providing training to and collaborating with Kevin to scan the books, process the images, and use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to make the text searchable.\n>> Browse the 1891 edition",

Unfortunately, identity theft is not an unusual problem for people who rent storage space, and, therefore, it's crucial to know how to protect yourself from that potential disaster.\n3 Things You Need To Know About Hiring Professional Movers\nIf you have an upcoming move, you are probably toying with the idea of hiring professional movers.

It\u2019s one thing to be able to extemporaneously monologue with coherence, but it\u2019s another skill entirely to be able to do that while doing something with your hands \u2013 like unwrapping bricks of comic books.\nThe books I wind up unwrapping are a major part of the uncanny origin of my now-massive comic book collection. Grant Morrison\u2019s New X-Men were the first trio of books I had delivered to our new house back in 2010. I\u2019ve had a love/hate relationship with them since then, though even from my first read it\u2019s been clear to me that Grant Morrison understood Jean Grey like no writer before him \u2013 and, none after have gotten the chance!\nEpisode 37 features Grant Morrison\u2019s complete run on New X-Men, covered in my guide to New X-Men and X-Men, Vol. 2.\nFiled Under: comic books Tagged With: Collected Editions, Crushing Comics, Grant Morrison, Jean Grey, Marvel Comics, New X-Men, X-Men\nX-Factor, Vol. 1 \u2013 The #31 Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus of 2017\n(Note: This post was originally scheduled for June but is being stickied to the top of the main page during the week of November 27th so current readers don\u2019t miss it! Regular updates continue, below.)\nX-Men fans who know the team from cartoons and movies are familiar with that single title acting as an umbrella to all of the various incarnations of the franchise.\nThat\u2019s about to change in 2018. Fans will get their first taste of a X-Men spinoff title with the release of New Mutants, a movie based on the third generation of young mutants at Xavier\u2019s school who were spun off into their own title in 1984. Either that film or Deadpool will likely lead us to another movie named X-Force, which would show off a more-proactive, bloodier version of X-Men on film.\nThose spinoff titles \u2013 \u201cnew\u201d and \u201cforce\u201d \u2013 are explicit in describing what their teams represent. That\u2019s one of many reasons why the film franchise is skipping over another X-Men spinoff title: X-Factor.\nWe might eventually see an \u201cX-Factor\u201d movie or TV show thanks to a 2006 incarnation of the title, which envisioned it less as a team and more as the motley crew staffing a mutant detective agency.\nWhat we probably will never see is an adaptation of the original X-Factor, which was dedicated to reassembling the original comic book X-Men \u2013 Cyclops, Angel, Beast, Iceman, and Jean Grey returned from the dead. That\u2019s because the film series has always been smart enough to realize that those five characters are a boring combination that\u2019s quickly dominated by the Cyclops/Jean relationship.\nIf the original X-Men are so boring, why were they reassembled? And, is it worth reading about over thirty years later? Those two questions are answered by the #31 vote on this year\u2019s Marvel\u2019s Most-Wanted Omnibus ballot.\n(Note that this post was published in November, as the originally scheduled post was interrupted by coordinating my move to my new home in New Zealand).\nX-Factor, Vol. 1\nX-Factor, Vol. 1 is tied as the #31 Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus of 2017 on Tigereyes\u2019s Secret Ballot. Visit the Marvel Masterworks Message Board to view the original posting of results by Tigereyes and collect all of these issue right now as detailed in my X-Factor Guide\nPast Ranking: X-Factor was #13 last year, making it one of the biggest drops in rank in 2017.\nProbable Contents: Fantastic Four #286, Avengers #263, X-Factor #1 to 26 or 32, plus Annuals #1-3.\nCreators: Written by Louise Simonson with Bob Layton and Walt Simonson. Penciled by Jackson Guice (#1-7) and Walt Simonson (#10-11, 13-15, 17-19, 21, 23-31, & Annual 3) with Marc Silvestri (#8 & 12)\nCan you read it right now? Not entirely, and what you read will be in an hodge-podge of formats. The whole run isn\u2019t even on Marvel Unlimited! Visit the X-Factor Guide for the full story.\nWhat\u2019s in the X-Factor, Vol. 1 omnibus?\nX-Factor marked the first time the original five X-Men were reunited in over a decade.\nIt was a clever solution to a non-existent problem, but also very nearly a dead-on-arrival dud. Even though it turned out to be good, I\u2019m still convinced it was the first big misstep of the X-Men franchise.\nThe year is 1985. Jean Grey is still dead. Cyclops represents the \u201cold guard\u201d in Uncanny X-Men and is increasingly unnecessary to the team, though he continues to get pulled back into their adventures despite starting a new life (and family) with Madelyne Pryor (later decided/revealed to be a clone of Jean!). Angel, Beast, and Iceman are roughly half of the New Defenders in a title headed for cancellation.

The right image is the result of stacking 39 15-second exposures taken from 5:35 - 5:51 AM, when the sky was beginning to brighten. These images were stacked and processed using AIP4WIN and Photoshop. The tail is easily seen, although the short exposures reduced color saturation. The length of the star streaks show how much the comet moved during the 16 minutes of exposures. Both images are cropped from the full frame. The camera was my Canon 60Da set for ISO1600.\nHere's my first reasonable attempt at an image of Comet C/2012 S1 (ISON). The comet is hard to see--it's the faint greenish glow in the top center third of the image. This is a stack of ten 30-second exposures taken with a Canon 60Da SLR fitted with the 300 mm Rokunar at f6.3. The camera was set for ISO1600. The pictures were taken around 5 AM on October 29 from our observing site at the Parris Glendening Recreation Complex in Frostburg. The bright star in the lower left third of the image is Chi Leo. This image is half of the full camera frame.\nHere are pictures of Encke at about 5:30 - 5:45 AM on October 29, 2013 as it cruised into the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies. Clicking on the left thumbnail brings up an image taken with a Jena 135 mm lens at f4. The image is a full-width crop from a stack of ten 30 second exposures at ISO400. The image has been shrunk to fit on the screen and Encke is barely visible (it's circled) and most of the galaxies don't show up. If you want to zoom in and look for galaxies, here is the full image. Clicking on the right thumbnail brings up an image taken with a 300 mm Rokunar lens at f6.3 Encke is easy to see in this full width cropped image. It is the blue-green object between NGC4216 (just to its right) and M99, with M98 above M99. The image is a stack of eleven 30-second exposures at ISO1600.\nIn all the hoopla over comets PanSTARRS and ISON, an historically significant comet had been overlooked. In October 2013, Comet ISON and Comet 2P/Encke were located on opposite sides of Leo. Encke is noteworthy because it was the second periodic comet to be identified (after Halley) and it has the shortest period of all known comets (a little over 3 years). This image was taken at 5:30 AM EDT on October 28, 2013, from the Glendening Recreation Complex in Frostburg, using a Canon 60Da SLR fitted with a 300 mm Rokunar lens set at f6.3. The exposure was 30 s at ISO1600. The image here is the lower 1/3 corner of the entire frame. Encke was actually considerably brighter than ISON at the time the photo was taken. It looks like a blue-green blob in the lower center of the image. No distinct tail is visible because at this point in its orbit the tail is pointing towards earth.\nComet C/2011 L4 PanSTARRS was the first of two comets predicted to be \"great comets\" in 2013. I went to Big Savage Mountain just west of Frostburg to look for it the first day it was expected to be visible (March 8, 2013). I saw what I thought was a bright jet contrail, but it didn't dissipate and it was setting along with the sun. It was PanSTARRS, which was easily visible to the naked eye once I know where to look. The far left image shows the general scene, and the next image is a crop showing the comet. The photo was taken with a Canon 60Da SLR using a 17 - 50 mm zoom lens at 50 mm. The exposure was 1/1000 s at f10, ISO1600. I expected great things, but PanSTARRS turned out to be quite ordinary. The next two images show PanSTARRS on March 23 (near Alpheratz in Andromeda) and on April 20 when it was located between Shedir and Caph in Cassiopeia. (You have to look carefully to see the comet!) The March photo was taken from Big Savage and the April shot was taken from the Glendening Recreation Complex in Frostburg to celebrate Astronomy Day 2013. Both images were taken with a Canon 60Da using a 135 mm Jena lens set at f5.6. The March 23 exposure was 5 s @ ISO1600; the April 20 exposure was 8 s @ ISO3200.\nComet Garradd is still visible in larger telescopes. According to Sky & Telescope, the comet must be quite large because it is relatively bright in spite of being very far away (beyond the orbit of Mars). I have pictures of it below from last August, and on April 15 I got another image. The left-hand picture shows the general star field around 10:50 PM EDT on the 15th. The star at the center of the circle looks slightly elongated because the comet is right beside the star. The right-hand image is cropped from the full frame to show the comet and the star. The pictures were taken with a Canon 40D DSLR equipped with a 135 mm Jena lens at f4, ISO1600. The camera was riding piggyback on an 80 mm refractor, which I guided by hand. (I couldn't see the comet in the small refractor.) The full-frame exposure was 2 minutes, while the exposure of the closeup was 1 minute. I estimate the diameter of the coma was around 200,000 km in August, when the comet was 1.33 AU from earth. In the new image, the comet is 1.83 AU away and the coma appears to be about 93,000 km in diameter. By comparison, the radius of the moon's orbit around the earth is about 385,000 km. So the comet is quite large\nOn November 8, 2011, asteroid 2005 YU55 passed closer to the earth than the Moon. The asteroid is small, only about 1300 meters (400 feet) in diameter, according to Sky & Telescope magazine, and was only about 11th magnitude. The Sky & Tel finder chart suggested it would be moving very fast, crossing the sky at an angular rate of nearly 10 arcseconds per second. I managed to get images that barely register 11th magnitude stars, and the asteroid is an even fainter blur because its 11th magnitude brightness is spread across several pixels. Clicking on the left thumbnail shows a single negative image of the asteroid approaching a pair of 6th and 7th magnitude stars (SAO107620 and 107611) near the middle of its track across the sky as seen from the US. The middle thumbnail is an animated gif showing the asteroid approaching and passing between the stars during a 10-minute period ending at 9:34 PM, and the right thumbnail is an animated gif showing the asteroid's progress through the stars of Pegasus from 8:59 PM until 9:34 PM. The asteroid itself is not visible in the longer animation, but its location is circled. The gifs are large files, so patience is needed while they load. The individual images were taken with my Canon 40D fitted with a 135 mm Jena lens set at f4 at ISO3200. The camera was riding piggyback on my 8-inch SCT and was under computer control to take a 10-second exposure every 30 seconds. The sky was very bright because of a nearly full moon. The images with the two stars are small crops from the full frame taken by the camera. The bright red streak in one frame near the end of the movies is from a passing airplane.\nThis pair of images shows Comet Garradd between M71 and the Coathanger asterism (aka Collinder 399 or Brocchi's Cluster) on Aug. 29, 2011. The comet and M71 are barely visible in the color photo, so I made a BW negative image to show them more clearly. We had observed Garradd next to M71 at the Meyersdale, PA, Stars in the Park on Aug. 26 under favorable viewing conditions. On the 29th I was experimenting with a \"new\" mount (an old Celestron CG-5 I picked up) that wasn't tracking properly, so I wasn't able to take a long exposure that would really show the comet well. I fixed the mount the next day and wanted to get an image of the comet right beside the Coathanger during Sept. 2 - 4, but the clouds didn't cooperate. So I ended up with only these relatively poor images. The Coathanger is in the upper left corner, Garradd is just below the center, and M71 is just right of the bottom center. The exposure was 90 seconds at ISO3200 using a Canon 40 D riding piggyback on a small refractor. A 28 - 135 mm lens was set for 100 mm at f5.6. The image shown here was cropped from the full frame.\nThis pair of images was also taken on Aug. 29, but with the lens set at 135 mm. All other exposure parameters are the same as above. Garradd is in the lower right corner. This image was also cropped from the full frame.\nThese three images show Comet 103P/Hartley 2 as it cruised past the Double Cluster in Perseus on Oct. 7 - 9, 2010. The Oct. 7 image was taken from my back yard in Frostburg, MD; the Oct. 8 image was taken at the Broughton Nature and Wildlife Education Area in Marietta, OH; and the Oct. 9 picture was made during Stars in the Park at Soccer Field 7 in Frostburg's Parris Glendening Recreation Complex. The images were taken with a Canon 40D SLR through a 28 - 135 mm lens set for 135 mm at f5.6. Each exposure was made at ISO 3200 for 1.5 minutes. For the Oct. 7 - 8 images, the camera was piggybacked on an 80 mm refractor on a hand-guided non-motorized equatorial mount. For the Oct. 9 image, the camera was riding on my 8-inch SCT on a Losmandy GM-8. The Oct. 8 image is out of focus because I forgot to turn off the lens's automatic focusing after I carefully focused it manually. But at least you can still see where the comet is (and you can clearly see the colors of the stars!). On Nov. 4, the EPOXI spacecraft flew by Hartley 2. Click here for the story and closeup images of the comet's nucleus.\nComet Lulin near M44, the Beehive Cluster, on March 4, 2009. This image was cropped from the full frame. This piggyback picture was taken with a Canon 40D SLR. The exposure was 2 minutes with the lens set for a focal length of 135 mm at f/6.3. The ISO setting was 1600.\nComet Holmes on Nov. 30, 2007. The exposure was 10 minutes on Kodak ASA 200 film. The camera is piggybacked on the telescope. The lens used is a 70 - 210 mm zoom set for 210 mm at f/5.6. The bright star at the bottom left is Mirfak. The small inset at the left shows the Oct. 31 image at the same linear scale as the new image. The coma has increased in diameter by more than 4 times. The diameter on Oct. 31 was about 375,000 km (about half the diameter of the Moon's orbit around the earth). By the end of November, I estimate the diameter to be about 1,600,000 km, slightly larger than the diameter of the sun! The faint fuzzy object below and to the right of the comet is the open cluster NGC1245.\nComet Holmes on Nov. 29, 2007. This is a fixed tripod shot of the sky showing Comet Holmes just right of center and the Double Cluster in Perseus above the center of the left side of the image. The exposure was 40 seconds on Kodak ASA 200 film with a 50 mm lens at f/2. Compare this photo with the ones below taken in late October and early November. The comet has grown in size until it is larger than the Double Cluster and has moved to the opposite side of Mirfak.\nComet 17P/Holmes photographed on October 31, 2007. The exposure was 2.5 minutes through my 8-inch SCT at f/10 on ASA 400 film.\nThis montage shows photos of Comet Holmes taken on two nights one week apart, October 28 and November 4. The comet is the bright object near and just above center in each picture. On October 28, four days after its outburst, it was bright and appears nearly stellar. One week later it has moved relative to the background stars and appears as a distinct disk. The exposures were both 20 sec on ASA 400 film with a 50 mm lens at f/1.8. The camera was mounted on a tripod.\nThis montage shows images of Comet Holmes taken on three nights. The October 31 and November 3 images are stacks of five 5 second STV exposures through my 80 mm ShortTube f/5 refractor. The November 2 image is a stack of about forty 1/2 second exposures taken over about a one hour period through my unguided 80 mm f/6.5 apochromat. The final image was rescaled to match the angular magnification of the ShortTube images. The comet has increased dramatically in size over the three-day interval represented, and its average brightness has decreased somewhat based on measurements made with AIP4WIN. In the November 3 image, the diameter is comparable to the diameter of the Moon's orbit around the earth! The rapid increase in size and decrease in brightness seems to support the suggestion that the comet brightened as a result of the emission of a large cloud of dust and vapor.\nComet 17P/Holmes photographed on November 2, 2007. The image is a Registax composite of ten 8 second exposures with a Nikon E8700 digital camera set for a focal length of 71 mm at f/4.2.\nComet 17P/Holmes photographed on October 29, 2007. The exposure was 90 seconds with a 135 mm f/2.8 lens on ASA 800 film. Alt-azimuth tracking was used.\nComet 17P/Holmes photographed on October 29, 2007. The exposure was about 8 seconds with a Nikon E8700 digital camera set for a focal length of 71 mm at f/4.2. The image is cropped from the full frame and has had its contrast adjusted.\nComet NEAT photographed near the Beehive Cluster on May 14, 2004. The exposure was about 5 minutes on Fuji Superia 800 color film using a 75 - 210 mm zoom lens set at 135 mm f/4. The camera was riding piggyback on my 8-inch SCT, and I was guiding on the comet. The exposure was stopped after 5 minutes because a band of clouds moved in.\nComet NEAT imaged on May 16, 2004. This is a \"stack and track\" composite of six 20-second STV images taken through my 8-inch SCT at f/10 and processed with AIP4WIN . Because of the narrow field of view, only the head and coma are visible in the image.\nComet Hoenig imaged in Ursa Major on Sept. 8, 2002 at Astronomy Weekend, Blackwater Falls.. Clicking on the thumbnail brings up an animated GIF of six images taken about every 20 minutes over a period of almost two hours. Each STV frame was a two minute total exposure (track and accumulate images consisting of either two 1-minute exposures or three 40-second exposures). Measurements of the displacement indicate a speed of 30 km/s across the field of view. A bright aurora was present during the first shot in the sequence.\nComet Ikeya-Zhang photographed near Deep Creek Lake, MD, on April 1, 2002. The comet was near M31 at that time. The exposure was 70 seconds with a 135mm lens at f/2.8 on Fujicolor 800 film. Altazimuth tracking was used.\nComet Hyukatake photographed March 26, 1996 from my driveway in Frostburg. The picture was a 40 second piggyback exposure with a 135 mm lens at f/5.6 on Konica 3200 film.\nComet Hyukatake\nPhoto by Gus Johnson 3/27/96, 3:25 AM EST in rural Garrett County, MD. 45 second exposure with 50 mm lens at f/1.9 on Kodak Gold 400 film.\nComet Hyukatake with Arcturus\nGus didn't provide any information about this picture except that the bright star to the right of the comet is Arcturus. Comparing this photo with one by S. Luzader and data from Sky & Telescope show that the picture was taken on March 23, 1996.\nComet Hale-Bopp photographed near Deep Creek Lake in rural Garrett County, Maryland. The picture was taken at 4:00 AM on 3/11/97. The image is a 2 minute exposure on Kodak ASA 1000 film with a 50 mm lens at f/1.9. Altazimuthal tracking was used for this relatively short exposure.\nComet Hale-Bopp photographed in rural southwestern Pennsylvania, near Frostburg. The picture was taken at approximately 8 PM on 4/2/97. The image is a 1.5 minute piggyback exposure with a 55 mm lens at f/2.8 on Fujicolor 400 film. The image seen here is cropped and rotated from the original so that vertical is straight up in the picture. The bright star near the comet is Almach in Andromeda, and the open cluster M34 is above and to the left of the comet.\nOnly two Hale-Bopp images are shown here. Check out the Hale-Bopp page for a larger collection of pictures by CAC members, plus links to other Hale-Bopp pictures.",

        "title": "Morrissey: Inside Looking In | Mark Kemp",
        "raw_content": "Mark Kemp / April 25, 2015\nManchester is 185 railroad miles north of London, linked by signposts that read Rugby, Birmingham, and Stoke-on-Trent; by sprawling misty green meadows, gushing streams, and a zillion grazing sheep. The city itself is a soot-gray mosaic of European architecture, from the high Victorian gothic of its majestic town hall to the palazzo warehouses that color its cobblestone back streets. Welcome to the cradle of the Industrial Revolution. Welcome to the home of the Hollies, the Buzzcocks, Joy Division, the Stone Roses \u2014 and Morrissey.\nSitting at a table in the lobby of Manchester\u2019s famed Midland Hotel, a stately red-brick building on Mosley Street where C.S. Rolls and Henry Royce first met in 1904 to talk luxury automobiles, Morrissey is sipping herbal tea and feeling just miserable. That\u2019s nothing new, of course, except that today the former Smiths singer has a physical, tangible reason for it.\nMorrissey at the Midland, 1991. Photo by Jane Huntington.\n\u201cToday?\u201d Morrissey asks, raising his prominent eyebrows, dubious of my first line of questioning. \u201cWell, let\u2019s see. Today I\u2019ve been suffering slightly because I\u2019ve had a terrible bout of flu, which can\u2019t be of any interest to anyone at all.\u201d He puckers his lips to one side, forming an understated \u2013 and presumably unintended \u2013 Billy Idol-like snarl. It\u2019s a shyer, more confused look, though; a look he tends to use often, particularly when faced with such taxing questions as, \u201cWhat did you do today?\u201d He continues: \u201cI spent the entire morning covered from head to foot in phlegm, which is not\u201d \u2013 he laughs \u2013 \u201cterribly romantic.\u201d\nMorrissey, however, is terribly romantic. Despite his ostensibly non-romance-filled lifestyle \u2013 Morrissey\u2019s declared his celibacy ever since the Smiths first surfaced in 1983 \u2013 he is a lot like the rest of us. He seeks the perfect relationship with another human being, though like the rest of us he\u2019s found it\u2019s not so easy to come by. He\u2019d like to be at peace with himself, though he\u2019s had to move to the outskirts of Manchester to get it, away from all the oglers and hangers-on. He\u2019s near religious about pop music, about that archaic belief in the popstar-as-protector, although after he himself became famous his fantasy world was obliterated.\nSo now he fancies mere respect, although he\u2019s routinely scorned by the British pop music press, which jumps at every opportunity to present him as a scapegoat all our human vulnerabilities. \u201cI think people feel that if you live alone you are either incapable of having an adult relationship with other living, breathing human beings, or you\u2019re just a very selfish person,\u201d Morrissey sighs in his pronounced northern England accent, kind of like John Lennon\u2019s, only the pitch is higher, and the tone more delicate. \u201cI suppose that\u2019s partly true of me \u2013 I do feel slightly selfish. At any rate, I go through these great gulps, these great patches of ostracization, and then suddenly lots of people pop up asking where I\u2019ve been. Which is really quite nice.\u201d\nSeven years after the release of the Smiths self-titled debut and three years after the band\u2019s demise, Morrissey is back in 1991 with his second post-Smiths solo album (not counting a singles collection, Bona Drag). Around Manchester\u2019s busy Piccadilly Station, posters of his new Kill Uncle album grace walls and note boards and the sides of buildings, along with ads for an upcoming G-Mex Centre concert by the city\u2019s trendy techno-dance outfit, 808 State, and a few ominous announcements concerning the return of Uriah Heep \u2013 whoever that was.\nKill Uncle is a surprising treat from Moz \u2013 a solid and much friendlier group of songs than the lion\u2019s share of his prior work. A few of his obligatory bummers and hoity-toity contempt for most of humanity lurk in the grooves \u2013 the album\u2019s first single, \u201cOur Frank,\u201d has Morrissey singing, \u201cGive us a drink, and make it quick/Or else I\u2019m gonna be sick/All over/Your frankly vulgar/Red pullover.\u201d But there are also songs like \u201cAsian Rut,\u201d a sensitive cry against racial violence in the U.K. And there\u2019s the giddy \u201cSing Your Life,\u201d a not-great song, but one which is downright good-natured in its call for people to do what he does \u2013 sing, that is. Such a song would have been unheard of during the Smiths\u2019 reign, which indicates some kind of change and movement going on between Morrissey\u2019s ears. \u201cThe older I get \u2013 and I\u2019m now stumbling towards my 32nd year \u2013 I do feel happier,\u201d he says. \u201cThere\u2019s something about life that\u2019s slightly easier; there are fewer expectations to be entirely and insufferably hip.\u201d\nMorrissey claims that if he were to quit it all today, \u201cI would absolutely mind my own business. I\u2019d live in a crumbling cottage somewhere in Somerset, out of the way. I would not try to claw my way back; I would not try to reinvent a \u2018pop persona.'\u201d He raises his head high, only partly mocking his self-importance: \u201cI\u2019m too saddled with dignity to do such a thing; I\u2019m persecuted by a sense of pride and dogged by cunning foresight. It\u2019s a shame, I guess \u2013 sometimes I wish I was just a simple drunkard.\u201d\nI\u2019m persecuted by a sense of pride and dogged by cunning foresight.\nIn 1984, the Smiths released their debut to generally chilly responses in the U.S., with the likes of Kurt Loder politely opining that their music \u201ctakes some getting used to.\u201d In Britain, it was a smash, a welcome relief from the icy thud of mid-\u201980s synth-pop a la Spandau Ballet and the Human League. Guitarist Johnny Marr\u2019s jangly riffs and hooky melodies, and the tight rhythm section of bassist Andy Rourke and drummer Mike Joyce, combined with Morrissey\u2019s brooding lyrics and yawning voice to create a quintessential anti-pop pop sound, not unlike what R.E.M. was doing over on these shores. The music did take some getting used to \u2013 with Morrissey\u2019s random forays into a shrill falsetto, and such bold out-of-the-blue lyrics as \u201cHand in glove/The sun shines out of our behinds\u201d \u2013 but getting used to it was rewarding.\nTheir second album, Hatful of Hollow, was a collection of singles and remixes of songs from the first one. It fared better among critics, college radio, and indie scenesters in the U.S., but didn\u2019t make a dent in the regular rotation (it didn\u2019t help that the Smiths refused to promote themselves or do videos). With the release of their disappointing third LP, Meat Is Murder \u2013 and its single \u201cHow Soon Is Now\u201d \u2013 a larger American audience started coming around to the Smiths\u2019 charm, though reservedly. Their literal blend of indie-slash-pop never really did attract a mainstream audience here, but the Smiths earned a sizable cult following, releasing The Queen Is Dead in 1986 and The World Won\u2019t Listen, the compilation Louder Than Bombs, and Strangeways, Here We Come, all in 1987.\nStrangeways was the bitterest album of the Smiths\u2019 already morose career; it sounded as if the players were just plain tired of all the criticism and hype surrounding their lead singer\u2019s every move. Morrissey, too, was tired of it. As he sniffs on the new album, with his tongue hard in his cheek: \u201cI don\u2019t want to be judged anymore/I don\u2019t want to be judged anymore/I would sooner be loved/I would sooner be just blindly loved.\u201d On Strangeways, Morrissey had become consumed with the topic of death, singing of a dead disco dancer, a dead rock star, a dead friend, and a \u201cGirlfriend In a Coma.\u201d The Smiths split after the album came out, and a live collection, Rank, was released posthumously in 1988.\nMeanwhile, Marr went on to work with Bryan Ferry, Paul McCartney, the Pretenders, Talking Heads, The The \u2013 and most recently the British soul/pop threesome, Stex \u2013 while Morrissey started work on his first solo album, Viva Hate. The record featured big strings and a brand new sound, but it was less distinctive than the Smiths. Sadly missing were Marr\u2019s shuffling guitar riffs and the Smiths\u2019 smart indie-rock rhythm foundation. Morrissey accurately admits that the Smiths \u201chad the best of Johnny and me; those were definitely the days.\u201d But he proved on Viva Hate that he and other songwriters could pen at least some melodies that were as fresh and bright as those he and Marr had collaborated on \u2013 something few observers expected. \u201cSuede-head\u201d was a hoot, and \u201cEveryday Is Like Sunday\u201d remains possibly the best melody Morrissey has sung. Overall, though, the album was a bit bland and stiff.\nWhile Kill Uncle has its uplifting moments, the material mostly remains in keeping with Morrissey\u2019s wry, self-obsessed, hit-and-miss tradition, with song titles like \u201c(I\u2019m) The End of the Family Line,\u201d \u201cThere\u2019s a Place In Hell For Me And My Friends,\u201d and one of his trademark wordplay songs, \u201cKing Leer.\u201d Collaborating now with Mark E. Nevin of the band Fairground Attraction, the songs breeze along merrily enough, Morrissey lyrically highlighting his sense of humor rather than his utter melancholia. The album\u2019s curve ball is \u201cFound Found Found,\u201d which is another not-great song, but a bombshell of sheer news. On it, Morrissey suggests he may finally have found someone to love. Behind brash, driving guitar rock, he gleefully sings, \u201cFound found found/Someone who\u2019s worth it in this murkiness/Someone who\u2019s never seeming scheming.\u201d Whether or not it\u2019s a romantic love is still up for grabs, but one thing\u2019s for sure: Morrissey, in that Morrissey way of his, is being charmed by another human being.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not necessarily sexual,\u201d he says. \u201cI don\u2019t think I mention sexuality in the song at all. But even in the limited capacity of finding a real friend and realizing that it actually does take a lifetime to find one, I\u2019m always slightly exalted by coming across someone with whom one has an instant rapport, an instant harmony.\u201d After years of bewailing friendships gone awry, and people in his life who\u2019ve jerked him around, Morrissey recently found at least one friend; one who, if not absolutely perfect, is at least perfectly understanding of his eccentricities.\nMorrissey with Stipe.\nIronically, that friend is the equally eccentric Michael Stipe, whose own band, R.E.M., was a sort of musical and spiritual American version of the Smiths back in the mid-\u201980s. \u201cMichael had written to me for a while and I was not quite sure what to think of his letter,\u201d he says. \u201cThen we met several times in London and went on these extensive walks in which we would just keep walking in huge circles around London and through Hyde Park. We just walked and talked and\u2026\u201d \u2013 he trails off \u2013 \u201c\u2026that\u2019s always been very difficult for me. Michael is a very generous, very kind person.\u201d\nA Morrissey-Stipe musical collaboration sounds like a critic\u2019s wet dream \u2013 and it just might happen. The two have discussed teaming up for a duet on England\u2019s Rock Steady TV show. \u201cIt isn\u2019t decided yet what we\u2019ll do, but it would be nice to do something unusual, some Righteous Brothers-type thing, I\u2019d like him to lead the way, actually. I think it could be one of those funny historic bits of pop television that\u2019s so rare these days, especially in England.\u201d\nTo be sure, Morrissey isn\u2019t all fun and games these days. While outwardly he\u2019s so calm he might as well fall asleep, inwardly Morrissey\u2019s still compelled to drop the occasional impudent bomb or two, like \u201cI\u2019ve always maintained that the human race is a great disappointment\u201d and \u201cthere\u2019s just no poetry in people.\u201d And he still falls into the trap of playing into the hands of his potential detractors. But Morrissey has a droll sense of humor about him that\u2019s all too often overlooked. At one point he delightedly confesses to having \u201chad hot wax poured on my body on more than one occasion,\u201d and then, without missing a beat, adds wryly, \u201cin a critical sense, that is.\u201d On one hand, his critics hate this sort of self-effacing arrogance; on the other, they can\u2019t get enough of it. Even when Morrissey is quietly in between projects, the music press \u2013 particularly in Britain \u2013 refuses to leave him alone, endlessly conjuring up the name \u201cMoz\u201d for one moot connection after another.\nBefore 19-year-old Johnny Marr showed up at 23-year-old Steven Patrick Morrissey\u2019s doorstep back in 1982, with guitar in hand and a yearning to form a rock group, Morrissey had worked as a civil service clerk, a hospital porter, and a record store salesman. He was incredibly unhappy. He had left school at 17, his life up to then always centered in one way or another around music, and now he had to do something with himself.\nMorrissey had been possessed by pop music since 1965, when he bought his first single, Marianne Faithfull\u2019s \u201cCome And Stay With Me,\u201d at only six years old. \u201cI lost myself to music at a very early age,\u201d he says, \u201cand I remained there. Beyond the perimeter of pop music there was a drop at the edge of the world.\u201d Even today, he sincerely believes his obsession with music was unlike anyone else\u2019s in the world. \u201cIt\u2019s so easy to throw that old word \u2018obsession\u2019 around. We often hear about, \u2018Oh, I\u2019m obsessed with this, I\u2019m obsessed with that; I\u2019m obsessed with music, I\u2019m obsessed with theorizing about music.\u2019 All of us secretly think we\u2019re musicologists and that only we know what\u2019s good and what\u2019s bad. But the word \u2018obsession\u2019 \u2013 which is frequently applied to me \u2013 is a pretty dangerous one, really. I did fall in love with the voices I heard whether they were male or female. I loved those people; I really, really did love those people. For what it was worth, I gave them my life\u2026my youth.\u201d\nWhen you\u2019ve sealed up your bedroom doors and you\u2019ve blackened your windows, and all you want in the world are those tiny crackles that are about to introduce that record \u2013 and you love the crackles that you hear from the needle on the vinyl as much as you love what will follow \u2013 then I don\u2019t think you will turn out to be a terribly level-headed human being. Music is like a drug, but there are no rehabilitation centers.\nIndeed, just before Morrissey joined up with Johnny Marr, he wrote a book about his beloved New York Dolls. \u201cThe New York Dolls were my private \u2018Heartbreak Hotel\u2019,\u201d he says. \u201cIn the sense that they were as important to me as Elvis Presley was important to the entire language of rock\u2019n\u2019roll. To me, the New York Dolls were the best group ever to come out of America, and they were loathed by America at that time. Sadly, they were reasonably appreciated only after it was too late. The New York Dolls were an early version of the Sex Pistols, and if Americans and the American music industry had only been alert enough in 1972 and \u201973, the New York Dolls could have changed so much. But not to be.\u201d\nWhen punk hit Manchester in the late \u201970s, Morrissey was there. \u201cI entirely embraced it,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was a terribly exciting time. I was at all the right places at all the right times, and I saw all the right groups at all the right times. The Sex Pistols played their first show just three yards away from where we\u2019re sitting right now, at the Free Trade Hall. It was a fantastic night. Nobody moved. People sat in awe. It was a very historic night, although I know it\u2019s quite standard to look back upon rock history and say, \u2018Oh yes, that was historic, it was moving, it was such a great night.\u2019 And now that I think about it, it actually wasn\u2019t. It was a dank night that only history has given a bit of color to. But those early appearances in Manchester by the Sex Pistols, and by the Buzzcocks, were truly, truly\u2026er\u2026I hate the word magical, but I have to use it, I suppose.\u201d\nMorrissey was 17 when his father, a security guard, divorced his librarian mother. Of his childhood and teen years, he is \u201chard-pressed to think of any pleasantries at all. I firmly believe that the past is what one is and what one remains to be. I\u2019ve come to the conclusion that \u2018it\u2019 is here to stay, whatever that \u2018it\u2019 may be; the mold, the cast, has been discarded. I think that really speaks for all of us, too. I think our lives are so indelibly, irreversibly shaped at a young age that there\u2019s very little we can do, although we always want to think that change is possible and that perhaps we\u2019ll go through some magical transformation, especially with the arrival of 30 and then 40. But it doesn\u2019t happen.\n\u201cIt\u2019s so abstract to me when I get letters from people who buy my records who weren\u2019t even alive when I was watching David Bowie on stage. It\u2019s that peculiar march of time. There\u2019s a famous quote which goes something like, \u2018You are what you are, having secretly become what you wanted to be.\u2019 Maybe there\u2019s some truth to that. We like to think that society shapes us, but I don\u2019t think that that\u2019s the way it happens.\n\u201cWhen I was young, I instantly excluded the human race in favor of pop music, and you can\u2019t live a fulfilled existence like that. People are invariably there; you have to go to school; you have to try to communicate with those around you. But when you\u2019ve sealed up your bedroom doors and you\u2019ve blackened your windows, and all you want in the world are those tiny crackles that are about to introduce that record \u2013 and you love the crackles that you hear from the needle on the vinyl as much as you love what will follow \u2013 then I don\u2019t think you will turn out to be a terribly level-headed human being. Music is like a drug, but there are no rehabilitation centers.\u201d\nMorrissey remains a rabid fan, though not of most current artists. \u201cTonight, on this very day that you and I are speaking, I will go home and I will play music very, very loudly, and I will be absolutely transported to a delightful new planet. I will listen to a record which I can\u2019t stop playing at the moment: a single called \u2018Good Timin\u201d by Jimmy Jones \u2013 an old American MGM yellow-label record. It\u2019s just simple, straight, boring, dull, floppy old pop music, but to me it\u2019s\u2026\u201d \u2013 Morrissey lowers his voice to a whisper, his light blue eyes glaring straight forward \u2013 \u201c\u2026it\u2019s like skin against skin; it\u2019s better than fine cuisine.\u201d He slaps his hand down on the table in front of him, and exclaims, \u201cIt\u2019s better than sex! There, now, that\u2019s how I feel.\u201d\nMorrissey still searches for old, obscure vinyl singles. \u201cThe seven-inch was \u2013 and still is \u2013 my reason for being,\u201d he says. \u201cI still collect old seven-inch records, although that\u2019s obviously passing now\u201d \u2013 due to the CD boom, an extra-sensitive topic for the already extra-sensitive Morrissey. \u201cThe death of vinyl is one of the saddest moments in pop history,\u201d he laments. \u201cIt hasn\u2019t happened here yet, but it\u2019s happened in America, and I firmly believe that CDs are being forced upon us by money moguls who want consumers to have no choice but to buy them because they\u2019re five times the price.\n\u201cBut the pop single: there was just something about the pop single,\u201d he continues. \u201cThe two-minutes-ten \u2013 the cramming of so much emotion into so little time \u2013 verses, chorus and fade out. All of the great Elvis Presley singles were under two minutes, and in those two minutes you just felt this tumultuous massive human sexual emotion.\u201d Ironically \u2013 whether to annoy his fans or the heads of record companies or both \u2013 Morrissey has on more than one occasion subjected his own listeners to some of the longest pop songs. \u201cLate Night, Maudlin Street,\u201d for example, on Viva Hate, was an interminable seven minutes, forty seconds long. \u201cNot all of them are long,\u201d he says. \u201cI recall that the Smiths made a record called \u2018William, It Was Really Nothing,\u2019 which was only two-minutes-nine. And we were heavily chastised by the record company for doing such a short song because Bronski Beat had released a record that same week which was 13 minutes long. There\u2019s so much to fight against; it\u2019s a terrible, terrible business. I hate the bruises.\u201d\nMorrissey\u2019s passion for pop and his love of the stars who make the music have come back to haunt him. Each year, his faithful gather in Manchester for a convention to which they bring albums and posters, visit the Kings Road home of his father, and litter the city with gladiolas, the flowers Morrissey used to take onstage with him during Smiths performances and toss out to his audiences. As tormented as Morrissey says he feels about his own loss of youth to rock\u2019n\u2019roll, though, he doesn\u2019t seem to care that others are losing theirs to him. In fact, he says, \u201cIt makes me feel honored that anybody would commit so much of their time thinking about what you see sitting before you. Their fantasies are largely inaccurate, but I obviously can\u2019t visit them all personally, one by one, and straighten things out, as it were. Let\u2019s face it, we all have our fantasies; most people fantasize about the programs they see on television, or about their sports fixations. There are probably a lot of people who quite like Dan Quayle.\u201d To Morrissey, it was always the New York Dolls \u2013 that is, until Patti Smith came around. \u201cThey were my only friends. I firmly believed that. I knew those people intimately. I knew everything about their lives. Of course, I really didn\u2019t, but in my own sheltered way I certainly thought I did.\u201d\nMorrissey\u2019s infatuation with the pop star-as-hero pretty much waned as the Smiths gained success. That makes sense, but it doesn\u2019t explain his utter contempt for practically all who followed the Smiths. While he still speaks reverently about his \u201960s and \u201970s idols, at one time or another he has condemned nearly every artist and band \u2013 from Prince and Madonna to the Stone Roses and Happy Mondays \u2013 that has appeared since the early days of punk. Except, of course, for the Smiths. \u201cI still do believe that the Smiths were the best,\u201d he says, undaunted. \u201cI mean, in the general overview of contemporary Manchester music, examine the success of the Happy Mondays and\u2026well, as far as I know they\u2019re not successful at all in America. Look at the hysteria\u201d \u2013 he rolls the word off his tongue \u2013 \u201cthat surrounds the Stone Roses, and compared with the Smiths they don\u2019t have the songs. None of those groups have the songs or the spirit that the Smiths had, and they don\u2019t present themselves in a new way. The Smiths were like nothing that had ever occurred before, and that\u2019s a hard thing to do.\u201d\nHe misses his old band. \u201cIt was a special musical relationship,\u201d Morrissey says, \u201cand those are few and far between. For Johnny and I, it won\u2019t come again. I think he knows that; and I know it. Luckily, there\u2019s still more on his part and more on my part to contribute. It was sad when the Smiths ended, but I don\u2019t think there\u2019s much that\u2026\u201d He laughs at his reminiscing, and adds: \u201cI\u2019m babbling, aren\u2019t I? I\u2019m swallowing my own teeth. It\u2019s interesting to choke on your own words; it must be very gratifying for a journalist to see somebody choking on his own words.\u201d\nMorrissey\u2019s thoughts about the Smiths stir-up overwhelming emotions. He tries again: \u201cI guess I feel a complete sense of hopelessness about the demise of the Smiths. I think Johnny was very unhappy that he didn\u2019t get an over-whelming degree of attention in the general assessment of the Smiths during their existence. There would be many, many album reviews which scarcely mentioned his name. And I feel that he wanted \u2013 that he needed \u2013 a stronger platform. He needed to be seen, and that\u2019s been his aim since the demise of the Smiths.\n\u201cBut that\u2019s only one facet. I also think that the Smiths revolved too quickly, too constantly \u2013 it just never stopped. It was all very emotional: constant recording, constant observation, no guiding light at all, no managerial figures, nobody around the group who could offer a really useful, guiding \u2013 almost parental \u2013 hand.\n\u201cJohnny, even at the end of the Smiths, was very young. Apart from myself, all of the Smiths were very young. When I first met them they were teenagers and I was 22 going on 23; you know how vast a difference there is between being a teenager and being 22 going on 23? It\u2019s a vast difference. I think the Smiths just snapped due to that kind of pressure, that boring old rock\u2019n\u2019roll pressure.\u201d\nIn Manchester you get two quid for four American dollars. Buy a pack of Marlboro Lights with that and you find that they have brown filters instead of the \u201cnormal\u201d white ones. Stroll Piccadilly after ten on a Saturday night and you might get five conflicting sets of directions to one legendary, but now defunct, dance club. Hey, it\u2019s a depressing city, but in spite of its perpetual bad rep \u2013 19th century poet Robert Southey once wrote, \u201cA place more destitute of all interesting objects than Manchester is not easy to conceive\u201d \u2013 it\u2019s actually faring better these days.\nPublishing has returned, construction is going on in the heart of town, and on a good day the sun might peek out from behind the clouds. Which leads one to wonder what\u2019s left here for Morrissey, who\u2019s fashioned an honest living out of railing against his surroundings. \u201cThe Manchester landscape has been so over-documented by me in the past; it\u2019s just so much a part of me and the Smiths\u2019 foundation that I don\u2019t feel I can repeatedly be photographed standing in front of warped signs. I live on the outskirts now; I\u2019m no longer a familiar figure on the backstreets of Manchester. That part of me has moved on, moved away \u2013 and happily so.\u201d\nOver the past 200 years, Mancunians have given us not only the industrial revolution, luxurious cars and Morrissey, but also the modern working-class hero, the world\u2019s first passenger railway station, John Dalton\u2019s atomic theory, the social writings of Friedrich Engels, and \u2013 most recently \u2013 a slew of retro-psychedelic dance groups and mop-top rugby hooligans stoned on hip-hop beats, acid house, and cheap ecstasy. None of which impresses Morrissey. He\u2019s disgusted with the trendy mop-top rugby hooligans who\u2019ve stolen his press; he\u2019s not particularly mindful of Rolls Royce automobiles (he happens to drive a ruby red Porsche 911); and he hates \u2013 absolutely detests, without apology \u2013 dance music. Which in 1991 in Great Britain \u2013 if not everywhere \u2013 can pretty much brand a fellow old-fashioned.\n\u201cI\u2019m not so blind as to not be aware of that,\u201d Morrissey admits, \u201cbut, believe me, I\u2019m happy to be in that category. I could never, ever begin to explain to you the utter loathing I feel for \u2013 as you say \u2013 dance music.\u201d He spits out the word like it was poison or something. \u201cI think dance music has destroyed everything \u2013 it certainly killed the pop star. It is bought by audiences who do not care about the personalities involved in music-making.\u201d As if that were so awful.\nBy midnight on Manchester\u2019s backstreets, lines of people form at the doors of places like Soundgarden, an all-night dance club which seems to be attracting much of the crowd that once frequented the Hacienda, the legendary Manc club started by Joy Division. By 1 a.m., the Soundgarden dance floor positively jolts with that familiar big American electronic drum bite. Quick-cut samples of Public Enemy, Technotronic \u2013 and of Manchester\u2019s own 808 State \u2013 wriggle through the noise. The dancers are clad in oversized T-shirts, their bowl-shaped hair drenched and faces glowing, clearly fueled by ecstasy. Dance and \u201cex\u201d are all the rage in Manchester these days \u2013 like punk never happened; like the Smiths never happened.\n\u201cI despise the advent of the 12-inch remix, the multi-mix, the dance mix, the etcetera mix,\u201d says Morrissey. \u201cIt\u2019s all just another nail in the pop coffin. For people such as I, who don\u2019t take drugs, there\u2019s no way that you could ever become involved in that scene; that you could even understand it. The structure of the song just doesn\u2019t exist. It\u2019s the basic line of the groove, and that\u2019s all that\u2019s required \u2013 along with a high voltage of drug intake. That\u2019s the only experience. Dance records are generally made by people who are not sensitive, who don\u2019t care about music, and who care nothing at all about the history of music. And to me that\u2019s the most important element. They don\u2019t care at all about the past; they don\u2019t care about what has gone before.\u201d\nOf course, DJs who spend half their lives combing massive record collections for the best historical moments to capture for use as a sample might disagree with Morrissey. But that doesn\u2019t faze him. \u201cThere was an opinion about four years ago that, \u2018Oh, isn\u2019t it wonderful that two people can sit in their bedroom in Detroit with a little bit of machinery and come out with this huge wall of sound.\u2019 To me, the sadness is just that \u2013 two people sitting in one room surrounded by a bunch of machinery. To me, that is sterility at its utmost. I want to see real people onstage playing real instruments; playing them hard and feeling it. I despise the backbone of that dance beat which doesn\u2019t alter at all in the American top 20. I find it totally shocking and revolting.\u201d\nHe doesn\u2019t think much of the more rock-oriented, psychedelic dance crowd, either. Ironically, the Stone Roses, whose danceable yet jangly sound echoes some of Morrissey\u2019s \u201960s faves, actually cite the Smiths as influences. Still, Morrissey is resentful; he passes them off as a mere \u201cpress creation.\u201d Says Morrissey: \u201cThe Smiths were not a press creation like the Stone Roses, who are just so press created. The jingly jangly Roger McGuin-ness of the Smiths was only one aspect of a lifestyle which was multi-faceted. And the Smiths made it on their own terms in their own way. Nobody helped us, nobody promoted us, and we didn\u2019t even use video until our ninth single, which was a complete disaster. Up until then it was a private club that, in spite of everything and everybody, became successful.\n\u201cI feel shuddering disappointment at the current Manchester lot,\u201d he continues. \u201cIt\u2019s been entirely embraced by the nation as being the true and real face of Manchester music, and I can\u2019t recall anything that\u2019s made me feel sadder. Mainly because: A) there are no singers involved, no vocalists with strong tones; and B) there are no useful lyrical constructions. It comes down to that boring, turgid, tired, desperate old hat called \u2018attitude.\u2019 It is pure fashion and pure trend. Sadly, during the Smiths\u2019 existence the music establishment in this country never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, accepted the Smiths. Then finally, at the time of the Smiths\u2019 death, the country began to look at Manchester as being this hotbed of pulverizing new talent. Therefore, all the wrong groups found it very easy to slip through the net and become successful.\u201d\nSometimes Morrissey thinks about what would happen if he suddenly lost it all. \u201cPersonally, I\u2019ve always felt, at each moment, that it could shrivel away,\u201d he says. \u201cI still feel that. In making Viva Hate, compiling Bona Drag, and recording Kill Uncle, there was always a feeling that this could be the final moment. I think that\u2019s something that stays with you forever.\u201d He compares himself to a couple of Beatles: \u201cIt\u2019s like Ringo Starr making that statement very early on with the Beatles; that if he could buy himself a little shop, he\u2019d be the happiest person alive. And John Lennon saying if it lasted two years, he\u2019d be happy. You always feel that you\u2019re skating on the edge \u2013 that public taste could just go like that \u2013 and then suddenly you\u2019re posting letters for a living.\u201d\n\u00a9 Mark Kemp, 1991 (First published in the May 1991 issue of Option magazine.)\nApril 25, 2015 in Music.

        "raw_content": "U.S. Supreme Court makes historic rulings\nOn June 27, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision about Janus v. AFSCME. The court held that forcing government employees who do not wish to join the union to pay \u201cfair share\u201d union dues violates the First Amendment, and States and public-sector unions may no longer extract fair share fees (agency fees) from non-consenting employees.\nIn its ruling, the court struck down Illinois law that requires government workers who choose not to join a union to \u201cpay their proportionate share of the costs of the collective bargaining process, contract administration and pursuing matters affecting wages, hours and other conditions of employment.\u201d\n\"Compelling individuals to mouth support for views they find objectionable violates that cardinal constitutional command, and in most contexts, any such effort would be universally condemned,\" wrote Justice Samuel Alito, who authored the court's opinion in the case.\nThis decision will likely have far-reaching consequences for public sector union membership in Illinois and throughout the country.\nThe Court also struck down a California law that would have required crisis pregnancy centers to inform clients of the availability of state-provided abortions. The majority of justices ruled the law violated free speech rights of these faith-based facilities.",

        "title": "Minutes and Popcorn: Gattaca (1997)",
        "raw_content": "\"I not only think that we will tamper with Mother Nature. I think Mother wants us to.\" - Willard Gaylin\nThis is one of the two starting statements that the movie opens with. \"Gattaca\" draws the audience in by relating to us. It is a movie about the strength of our human spirit. \"Gattaca\" is a science-fiction film that takes place in the not-so-distant future, where DNA is almost the only factor that matters to society. In \"Gattaca\", science has made it possible to determine the probability rate of almost everything just by analyzing our DNA. It can even show if the person has a high likelihood of a violent temperament. As such, no one ever conceives naturally. Instead, they scientifically and manually fertilize female eggs with male sperms of a couple. Using this method, they are almost able to create any kind of person they want, gender, skin color, hair color, etc. They are also able to remove any birth defects or DNA that provokes a violent behavior and whatnot. Basically, this method is a better method of conceiving any child.\nUnfortunately for our protangonist, Vincent Freeman (Ethan Hawke), he was naturally conceived and was born with a poor heart and other \"DNA defects\". His parents decided to create their next child through the scientific method, which, needless to say, yielded a child with incredible results. The story follows Vincent, a man with great aspirations but held back because of his genes. You see, Vincent wants to be a space navigator but to be one, you need to have incredible physique and intellect. Unfortunately for Vincent, the upper class society does not tolerate people with poor DNA. Although it is considered illegal to discriminate against people with poor DNA, no one really takes the law seriously. No matter how hard Vincent trained or studied, he was never even considered for the role of the navigator. Vincent decides to take on the identity of someone with perfect genes so he can attain his dreams. The story unfolds in a very interesting fashion.\nWhat makes this film so good is that it not only focuses on Vincent, a man born with defects. It also talks about Morrow Jerome (Jude Law), the identity Vincent is trying to assume. Jerome is the opposite of Vincent, instead of being born with defects, he was born perfect. Jerome has to deal with the burden of perfection, which is to be the best in everything he does. \"Gattaca\" uses this contrast to bring out it's point further, that the human spirit is the ultimate factor that matters and nothing else.\nGranted that there are already many movies about determination and the human spirit, but none has succeeded as much as Gattaca in my opinion. Through an incredible score, comparable if not better than \"The Truman Show\", good acting and perfect directing, this movie really captures the essence of the human spirit. Ethan Hawke and Jude Law delivers stellar performances, the supporting cast were almost equally great, especially Vincent's brother (Loren Dean).\nGattaca has always been one of my favorite movies of all time, I rate it 9/10.",

        "raw_content": "Irrealis Mood, 2016\nView of the exhibition, Photos: Giorgio Perottino\nAlways and Again This Pathetic \u2018If\u2019, 2015, Foam, steel, glass, semi reflexive mirror, plywood, 55 x 68 x 31 cm\nUma Jornada Infinita de Sonhos e Descobertas, 2016, Ceramic, steel, wax, soil and painted wall, variable dimensions\nThe original display system designed by Lina Bo Bardi for the Museum of Modern Art of S\u00e3o Paulo in 1968 was abandoned in the 90's after a long dispute with political and ideological overtones between the directors of the institution. Composed by sheets of tempered glass stuck vertically into concrete cubes, the display system was a \"counter-museum\" critique on the linear and authoritarian guidance of museum walls. Its modernist ideal of transparency \u2013 an extension to the buildings' architecture also signed by Bo Bardi \u2013 and the freedom it allowed for visitors' navigation in space, over time, were betrayed by its material deterioration. The structures suffered with the humidity, light and heat from Brazilian tropical climate. The sheets of glass where the collection of paintings were hanging started to dilate, putting the preservation of the artworks in danger.\nIn 1996, after Lina Bo Bardi\u2019s death, MASP built white plaster walls where the paintings were installed and put the displays in storage. In 2015, new versions of the display system marked the come back of Bo Bardi\u2019s original project in MASP's painting collection. A patina of anachronism seemed to have grown on the structures after almost twenty years in storage. The current concerns are different than the 60's \u2013 instead of trying to translate Bo Bardi's critical attitude towards analogous contemporary museology strategies, MASP chose the less progressive path of consolidating a museum-of-itself, as an institution seeking its roots, anchoring itself on a project that was not at all about safety. The introduction text currently at MASP sets the tone of the reenactment. The title An infinite journey of dreams and discoveries is a quote from the definition of art signed by the bank which was the major sponsor of the project.\nUma Jornada Infinita de Sonhos e Descobertas, 2016, Detail\nBorborema, 2016, Woodcut print on folded book dummy, stencil, offset posters, steel, magnets, 245 x 145 cm\nWhat is Beautiful I Do Not Know, 2016, Plywood, formica, steel, painted cardboard, 94 x 68 x 40 cm\nCharles Darwin\u2019s Face On Banknotes, 2016, Concrete, ceramic, painted wood, glass, plastic bubble wrap, 180 x 110 x 40 cm\nSol Preto, 2016, HD video, color, stereo, 23 min.\nThe work selection presented in the show documents the ideological issues tackled by the artist in his exploration of the modern heritage, which he sees as declining. He talks about time, our time, as a suspended temporal dimension where skepticism seems to be the strongest conviction. Daniel Frota retrospectively focuses on specific events and references of in the 20th Century history of science, architecture, literature and art, using verbal language as the thread that interweaves all the elements in the exhibition.\nFrota is interested in the notion of ucronia in relation to the crisis of modern thought. A subgenre of sci-fi literature, ucronia relies on the possibility to change an event in the past, and consequently to recreate a new, fictional present: the works on view all share this status as re-creations. In his sculptures and videos, Daniel Frota concentrates on the difference between history and stories: what happens to our designs when their ideologies fade away? What are ruins but nothing more than projects getting closer to their original floorplan configuration?\nIn linguistics, there is a term that describes a group of verbal moods used in situations of contingency and unpredictability. The term is irrealis mood, a set of grammatical \u2018states of mind\u2019 that includes, for instance, the subjunctive mood, which allows speakers to predicate something about things unknown, as yet unconfirmed, or unverifiable. It allows speakers to talk about their intentions and wishes, and it is on account of this ability that the artist has chosen this expression as the title of his solo exhibition.\nText by Lorenzo Balbi",

        "raw_content": "Startseite Projekte Menschenrechte Trostfrauen 2007: The Jeremiad of \u201eComfort Women\u201c: Who sold us down the river?\n(A). \u201cComfort Women\u201d refers to the groups of various ethnic women such as Japanese, Koreans, Filipinos, Vietnamese, Burmese, Indonesians and Dutch during the World War II, who were recruited by the Japanese Imperial Army for serving the Japanese soldiers in the brothels throughout the Asian Pacific region.\n(B). No Koreans, scholar, historian, professor, journalist, or politician, would dare to write or publicly say something that I write in the following article, not because they do not know it, but rather they know that they would be immediately attacked a liar, criticized a sellout, pummeled a traitor, and buried a has-been in the society. As a freelance journalist who values most the freedom of information, expression, and press, I write what I know is right and correct without the fear that other Koreans shudder to escape from.\nPrior to delving into the matters regarding the \u201ccomfort women\u201d, one should also note the past historical facts:\n1. As prostitution is the world\u2019s oldest profession in human history, the sexual trading in both Japan and Korea was thrived, accepted, and licensed as the legitimate business activity from the ancient society where many underclass and indigent people were forced to rely on selling their bodies as their one and only commodity. It was a means for low-caste people serving sexually high, privileged, and rich class in return for money or favor.\n2. There is no way to determine precisely how many women were forced to served as \u201ccomfort women\u201d, since there were no data or document available either in the military archives of Japanese Government or mama-san\u2019s ledgers. It is estimated by historians that there were about 200,000 women worked for sexual laborers to enhance the morale of the Japanese military, and the ethnic background of sexual workers varies, waxing and waning depending on whom you ask: the South Koreans claim 80 percent of \u201ccomfort women\u201d were Korean women. However, a Japanese researcher breaks down as follows: 40% Japanese, 20% Koreans, 10% Chinese and others like Filipino, Vietnamese, Burmese, and Dutch, making up the remaining 30%.\n3. The annexation of the Lee Dynasty (Korea) to Japan in 1910 could be paralleled to the Hawaiian Kingdom\u2019s absorption to the United States\u2026the sovereignty of the Korean Dynasty was ceded to the Japanese Empire and Korea became a part of Japanese Empire and all the Koreans the Japanese subjects, though its legitimacy is disputed due to the Treaty was forced through by ministers threatened and bribed by the Japanese. Therefore, technically and legally, Koreans served comfort women, worked laborers, and drafted to the military as the Japanese subjects whether Koreans like it or not. (If the Japanese won the war, Koreans as Japanese alike were becoming the masters of Asian Pacific region as the soldiers of Hawaiian aborigines do fight in Iraq as the US occupation forces now.)\n4. The export of women for sexual service to the war front was not the moral opprobrium committed exclusively by the Japanese Imperial Army\u2026the South Korean Government during the Vietnam War in late 60s did the same thing what the Japanese have done during WWII, dispatching hundreds of thousands of their professional whores to the war fronts providing the sexual pleasures for their mercenary soldiers. There was no pathological distinction between the Japanese and South Korean rationale for the \u201ccomfort women system\u201d other than a dispute whether the women were forcibly and coercively drafted as the sex slaves or worked voluntarily for money.\n5. Some Koreans attempt to compare the \u201ccomfort women\u201d issue with the Jewish Holocaust\u201d\u2026seeking help from the most powerful lobby group, AIPAC, in the US\u2026but there is one and only symmetry between them: these two issues manifested only after two or three decades after the WWII ended, as the Holocaust manifested in the US in late 1960 and the \u201cComfort Women\u201d began kvetching and went gaga in early 1982\u2026in other words, \u201ccomfort women\u201d incident was a non-issue immediately after the WWII through 1980, because the South Korean Military Government of Gen. Park CH did not raise the matter in public, because General was satisfied with the Japanese compensation in 1965.\nThe ghosts of \u201ccomfort women\u201d recently have debuted again in the political arena of the North American Continent thousands miles farthest away from where it rests in peace, and they still reverberate dancing along the corridors and the hearing rooms of the US Congress choreographed by the various NGOs from the Korean-American community.\nThough they gradually are becoming an endangered species as years go by, the remaining \u201ccomfort women\u201d refuse to vanish in oblivion and keep yelping like a Jewish yenta.\nAnd the apparitions have manifested in the form of HR 121 Resolution at the US Congress that requires the Japanese government formally acknowledge, apologize, and accept historical responsibility in a clear and unequivocal manner for its Imperial Army\u2019s coercive activities against the \u201ccomfort women\u201d during the colonial and wartime occupation of Pacific and Asian islands in the 1930s through the duration of WWII.\nStrangely, however, the Resolution exhibits the peculiarity\u2026contrary to the fact that we are living in the world where every quid has its quo, the Resolution does not have a single word demanding compensation for victims, \u201ccomfort women\u201d supposedly drafted for sexual slaves pro bono.\nBringing the \u201ccomfort women\u201d issues to the US seems like Koreans searching their lost keys under the lamp post because the light is bright there, even thought they know that they lost their keys farther thousands miles away\u2026an ingrained characteristics of colonial subservience and obsequiousness toward the hegemonic overlord, Uncle Sam.\nAnd the Korean NGOs are eagerly avoiding any institutional intervention like the help from the Government or Corporate underwriting in order to gain access to the power circle in the Belt Way of the Washington DC.\nAside from the suspicion why the US Congress involved in business that has got nothing to do with America, one would have an impression by reading the Resolution that the Japanese Government had never done anything, reparation or apology, on the issues of \u201ccomfort women\u201d.\nOn the contrary, the record shows that the Japanese Government had issued over two dozens of statement during over three and half decades since 1972, expressing their condolence, apology, and regret in the name of almost every Japanese Prime Ministers (Tanaka, Suzuki, Nakayama, Hosokawa, Murayama, Hashimoto, Obuchi, Koizumi), Chief Cabinet Secretaries, and Ministers of Foreign Affairs.\nAnd even two Emperors, Hirohito in 1984 and Akihito in 1996, expressed in the formal meeting with the South Korean Presidents that Japan regrets an unfortunate past between two countries and it should not be repeated again.\nBut the South Koreans have refused to accept these statements as the official documents because it was not ratified by the Japanese Diet (House of Representatives) or by the cabinet meeting.\nOn the matter of reparation, it was an open and shut case according to the international law\u2026 that the Japanese and the South Korean Government have reached an omnibus settlement in the 1965 Treaty On Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea (the South Korea)\nAccording to the document that was disclosed in 2005, the South Korean Government in 1965 requested and received the compensation of $800 million in grants and soft loans from Japan, and agreed not to demand further reparation either at the government or individual level against the Japanese Government.\nAmong the $800 million, $364 million was specifically allocated in compensation for the 1.03 million Koreans conscripted into the workforce and the military during the colonial period, at a rate of 200 dollars per survivor, 1,650 dollars per death and 2,000 dollars per injured person.\nThe documents also revealed that the South Korean government claimed that it would handle individual compensation to its citizens who suffered during Japan's colonial rule while rejecting Japan's proposal to directly compensate individual victims and receiving the whole amount of grants on the behalf of victims.\nDuring and after the Japan-South Korean Treaty, the contents of the agreement have remained in the foggy bottom of both Japanese and South Korean government archives for half a century\u2026Japanese wanted to play dumb because they did not yet come to an agreement with the North Korea that demand a whopping $10 billion compensation, and the military regime of the South Korea was desperate getting money, any money, dirty, bloody, fake, fraudulent, or mafioso.\nThe Treaty was a godsend to the money-starved Military Government of Gen. Park CH who sent his nephew to the treaty negotiation - Lieutenant Colonel JP Kim, then-Director of Korean Central Intelligence Agency (KCIA) - as an ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary.\nEven the Korean Foreign Minister was out of the loop in the negotiation process that JP Kim reported directly to the President who kept the reparation money in his cookie jar disbursing as he deemed appropriate as an emperor gives out some gift to his underlings.\nFew knew what the deal was except Gen. Park, KCIA, and some high-ranking lapdogs in the totalitarian regime.\nDid the South Korean Government pay the $364 million for the 1.03 million victims according to the treaty?\nAfter paying only about $200 per death in compensating fewer than ten thousands of forced labor victims between 1975 and 1977, Gen. Park CH finagled the rest of money for the slush fund to buy out his opponents and other retired generals, and for seed money to build the major highways, industrial complexes, and Pohang Iron & Steel Co.\nDuring the WWII period, General Park was the first lieutenant of the Japanese Imperial Army stationed in Manchuria serving voluntarily and faithfully as other many Korean collaborators did for the imperial military occupation in China and Pacific region.\nThey were obviously being provided with the \u201ccomfort women\u201d for their R and R furlough and enjoyed their sexual services without any hesitance or compunction.\nWith this imperial hubris, General Park dispatched again in 1965 thousands of Korean women for the \u201ccomfort\u201d of his fifty-thousand-odd mercenaries during the Vietnam War, stole the money through banditry from poor Vietnamese, and used the hard currency to finance for the economic development of the present South Korea.\nThe notorious KCIA had the task force unit for recruiting prostitutes with the help of the local police who actively participated to solicit the whores in their beat, and in addition, the Navy chipped in for the transportation and the Military Police in the war front run the comfort station under the supervision of the KCIA case officers.\nThe taskforce unit also had an extra job to procure the sexual services of young college girls and women in entertainment business in order to accommodate the insatiable appetite of of the General\u2019s libido.\nEventually, the blood money of \u201ccomfort women\u201d during WWII and the Vietnam War had paved the highways, roads, and parking lots for the sake of all South Koreans whose Presidents sold the comfort women down the river. In other words, thousands of the \u201ccomfort women\u201d both in the colonial era and after the liberation have contributed their blood for the recovery and development of the South Korean economy.\nAnd all the credits for the economic prosperity go to Gen. Park and his cohorts including his daughter, whose ambition to be a next El Presidente emanates from the blood-soaked hands of his assassinated father, an ex-Japanese Imperial Officer.\nThe South Koreans are still barking up the wrong tree!\nInstead of travelling a red-eye flight across the Pacific Ocean for appearing at the US Congress hearings, the \u201ccomfort women\u201d should have a sit-in demonstration in front of the National Assembly in Seoul where General\u2019s daughter flirts with their blood money.\nRather than raising their wobbly arms into the air in front of the Japanese Embassy in Seoul, they should make a protest visit to the residence of JP Kim whose agreements with Japanese have made them penniless and dishonourable.\nBefore condemning the Japanese who pay tribute to Yasukuni shrine, they should go to their national cemetery where Gen. Park lies in comfort and demand their blood money for selling them down the river.\nIt is at least bizarre and unconscionable to bring the \u201ccomfort women\u201d issue to the US Congress where Americans endorse, finance, and execute the imperial policies of world dominion as if Japanese Empire had strived for the colonization of the Asian Pacific region.\nIt\u2019s like the infighting two Capos in the Mafia family seeking favor from their boss\u2026in other words, the boss (USA) was asked by a Capo (South Korea) to pass a toothless and non-binfing fiat ostensibly punishing another Capo (Japan), the boss\u2019s favourite son, and the boss has been refusing to do so six times in the past, and the chance are absolutely nil to pass in the Congress and endorsed by the US Government.\nIn a nutshell, the matter should be dealt in the UN jurisdiction, as in the International Criminal Court, Human Rights Commission, or UN commission on the Status of Women. Or let the remaining \u201ccomfort women\u201d live in peace comfortably, providing them with sufficient fund from the national coffer.\nBut please stop doing stupid things like sending their Toy Soldiers to Iraq and Afghanistan, bringing the \u201cComfort Women\u201d issue to your overlord, USA, or electing the General\u2019s daughter a next El Presidente.\nBy doing so, you are announcing loudly to the world that the South Koreans are still playing a role of lackeys in the service of the US imperialism as if their General served for the Japanese Emperor a first lieutenant who enjoyed the sexual services of \u201cComfort Women\u201d in his stint in the Japanese Imperial Army during WWII.\n(http://edition.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/03/04/japan.sexslaves.ap/index.html)\nAls pdf-Datei hier anklicken pdf\n2016: SK Controversy Over Comfort Women (2)",

        "title": "Photographer Interview: Jesse Wright | Dodge & Burn: Decolonizing Photography History",
        "raw_content": "Photographer Interview: Jesse Wright\nIt\u2019s no surprise that scientists make great photographers. Folks like Jesse Wright with the tenacity to research how things/life work could only naturally gravitate to using the camera as a discovery tool.\nEngage with Jesse Wright\u2019s photography online and follow him on Twitter @jessewright.\nJW: I was born and raised in the blue-collar city of Allentown, PA. I currently reside in New York City.\nD&B: How did you get started in photography \u2013 any \u201cformal\u201d training?\nJW: I have absolutely no formal training in photography or the arts. I have a Ph.D. in Microbiology from the University of Virginia and I spent half a dozen years studying bacterial communication as a postdoctoral fellow.\nI loved making things as a kid \u2013 I would draw or build things with Legos \u2013 and I liked art class. I really enjoyed the process of starting with an idea or vision and trying to realize it. But, I discovered photography only recently, about 4 years ago during my postdoctoral fellowship.\nAt the time, my girlfriend and I got a camera together \u2013 just a little digital point and shoot. I thought maybe I could use it for work, photographing my experiments with bacteria communities. I found that to be very satisfying, because the images I took told a story that couldn\u2019t be explained in words, graphs or tables. That\u2019s when I realized that photography could be creative, powerful means of communication.\nOf course, it didn\u2019t stop there. I got obsessed with taking pictures. I would fiddle with the settings, try various techniques, and I began shooting outside of the lab. Like a scientist I was using the camera as a means to explore and understand my environment. The camera evolved from a tool into a vehicle of expression. That\u2019s when it struck me that photography could serve as a way to show how I see the world.\nJW: I photograph with a Canon 5D, but believe it or not, most of my favorite images are taken with a little point and shoot or iPhone. I love the ultimate control of all elements of the camera\u2019s operation. But, sometimes the lack of control can actually be a blessing \u2013 allowing you to really be creative and explore the spontaneity of the moment. Though I can be very deliberate about lighting and composition, some of my favorite images have been taken when I didn\u2019t have time to consider these things and I just acted on instinct or whim.\nI love shooting manually and I love the effects one can \u201cmanufacture\u201d with a lens. Like creating or compressing space, using shallow depth of field, shooting in focus, or out of focus. I especially like the ambiguity of shooting things out of focus. The resulting images are abstract and dreamlike \u2013 you can kind of see what\u2019s going on, but the details are blurry. It makes the photo more interpretive \u2013 anyone can look at it and find in it what they want because it\u2019s more like a memory than a reproduction. Shooting this way allows me to focus on the moment and not be distracted by the details.\nWhen I choose to shoot in focus I tend to use the camera to extract meaning from a fragment. I\u2019m consciously trying to eliminate distraction and focus on one subject. I\u2019m attempting to elevate the subject to another level. I\u2019m trying to take an Oreo cookie and make it more than something you shove in your mouth.\nThis is a very scientific approach, in a way; In science you can\u2019t control every variable, so you try to eliminate the things you can\u2019t control. You can\u2019t study a whole system en masse \u2013 you just study one part, and ask \u201cwhat does do?\u201d or \u201chow does it work?\u201d You isolate it and examine it apart from the other pieces. For me, that\u2019s when i realize how elegant that one part can truly be. There can be beauty and elegance when you take in the whole vista, but it doesn\u2019t always resonate with me personally. Instead, I find myself wanting to subtract things to get down to something essential.\nJW: Even though he was not a photographer, my graduate school mentor Bob Kadner had an enormous influence on me. I was free to find my own way, come up with my own ideas, make every mistake in the process, and develop something that was truly my own. Not once did he force me into any particular project \u2013 instead, the implication was, \u2018come up with your own project.\u2019\nI floundered in this state for a couple years because I didn\u2019t know what the hell I was doing. I thought I needed to be taught how to do science \u2013 how to design an experiment, how to ask the right questions, how to go about solving problems the proper way. It was a lot like learning how to swim by being tossed into the deep end of the pool. I find myself replicating that approach now in everything I do. For instance, instead of relying on a template, I taught myself HTML so I could build my flickr, jpgmag, tumblr, and via twitter.\nI also find contemporary art inspiring: Sol Lewitt, Mark Rothko, William Eggleston and Andy Warhol have had a profound influence on me. I like learning what their influences were, the \u201cwhy\u201d behind a piece or a series. That resonates very strongly for me as a photographer. My decision to take a picture means there\u2019s a story behind every photograph I take \u2013 sometimes I think taking a photograph is just a means to that experience. That\u2019s why I really like to know the stories behind these artists\u2019 works.\nD&B: When did you realize you could make a living at photography? Describe your journey towards becoming a pro.\nJW: I am not a pro, yet. Being paid to photograph in a steady way \u2013 that\u2019s how I define being a pro. Once I started to receive complements on my photographs from friends, family, and colleagues it dawned on me that a career as a professional photographer was attainable. I can\u2019t overstate how important that feedback was because it reinforced the fact that my perspective holds value.\nAt the same time, I really tried to be objective about my work and my progress, asking myself if I was really offering something different and unique with my photography. I knew that even if I was pretty good at it, if I was incapable of offering something new or innovative as a photographer, I wouldn\u2019t want to do it.\nAs a person, I need that challenge. I need to know that I am entering uncharted waters. That\u2019s the kind of risk that excites me, and that\u2019s what I\u2019m seeking in a career in photography. I hope at some point that someone wants to hire me or collaborate with me because they appreciate the risks I\u2019m willing to take, and they like my vision.\nJW: I want people to stop and linger. I love those pauses in between the moments we are all conditioned to remember. I love in the movies, when a shot lingers longer than is necessary. I love when you just stand there at the refrigerator with the door open, staring inside. I enjoy those quiet pauses within conversations. Those are the moments I want to capture, because although they are easily erased from our memories, to me they stand out as powerful and moving.\nTaking photographs to me means stopping. Someone stopping to look at my work means they\u2019re doing just what I did before I pressed the shutter. That is how I think my work connects with the viewer. I don\u2019t really take a lot of pictures of exotic stuff \u2013 I shoot stuff that\u2019s pretty mundane, things you may come across every day and don\u2019t notice, like bus logos, a street sign, or a trash can.\nSo in a way, the most flattering thing for me would be for others to stop and ponder what I\u2019ve made. I want them to get stuck on it. Maybe they\u2019ll find in it the same meaning that I do, or maybe they\u2019ll find in it something meaningful to them, or maybe they\u2019ll just think it sucks. The outcome is irrelevant to me, because, if they linger, it means that somehow I\u2019ve drawn them into my world and that\u2019s what I\u2019m really trying to achieve.\nJW: I\u2019d love to go on the road with truckers, and just take pictures of them and their trucks. Truckers, to me, seem like modern day cowboys. A dream project is to be like Hunter S. Thompson \u2013 to be able to both document and experience a situation \u2013 really be a part of it and not be an outsider.\nI\u2019d like to be with these truckers, ride with them, go to the truck stops with them, eat and drink with them and become part of their circle. And then I wouldn\u2019t be shooting as an outsider, but as a member. I could achieve something genuine and organic because I had their trust.\nI traveled to India last fall, and it was there where I learned the importance of building a relationship with my subject, no matter how fleeting the moment. I was traveling with my brother and we would wander the streets of Delhi at night. There were a lot of street vendors near where we were staying, and they got used to seeing us in the neighborhood.\nOne night I asked this one guy if I could take his picture. He became embarrassed when the other street vendors started to make fun of him a little while I was shooting. Even though he was smiling, his discomfort was captured in my photo which made it better. I wouldn\u2019t have gotten the same effect were it not for his relationship with those other guys and their relationship from seeing us around.\nD&B: What are you shooting now?\nJW: I\u2019m developing a photo essay of Allentown. On the surface, Allentown seems so much less interesting to shoot than New York, but that\u2019s why it\u2019s so interesting to me. Because I grew up there, I know where to find the elements in Allentown that are much more raw than New York.\nHere in New York, I find myself working very hard to scratch and pick and peel away all the layers that hide the city. New York also has a different feel because it is a destination \u2013 millions of people come here to work, or visit and see the sights.\nThose things are absent in Allentown which makes it ready-made for the type of photography I like to do \u2013 the kind in which I extract things. In New York it can be tough to extract things from the surrounding clutter. In Allentown, I can focus on a subject without having to work as hard to extract it. I guess it may be part of some larger personal journey that I don\u2019t quite understand yet, but through taking photographs there I eventually will.\nTags color photographycontemporary photographyscience\nPhotographer Interview: Felicia Megginson Photographer Interview: Neil Chowdhury Photographer Dawoud Bey Featured In USA Network\u2019s Character Project Chobi Mela V, International Festival of Photography, Bangladesh\nAnonymous\t on June 2, 2009 at 2:47 AM\nYou have taken some fantastic pictures!

We\u2019ve seen companies pick the right product and we\u2019ve seen them make huge mistakes leaving them with a tangled mess, bad data, and crippling debt only to have to go through the process again. Replacing your business software isn\u2019t easy. It can (and should) take many months to evaluate vendors and products and to eventually select a business system. And it\u2019ll take you at least another couple months to implement the basic system which is where most companies stop and become complacent \u2013 never returning to setup the advanced features available to them in their application. It\u2019s no wonder why most companies keep their business software for at least 10 years (about 12-15 years for mid-market companies).\nIn her July 18, 2017 story, \u201cThe Real Cost of Aging IT Systems\u201d on Excella.com, Stephanie Vineyard writes, \u201cData creation is exploding, but legacy systems remain ubiquitous and continue to power the business world. It is estimated that close to $3 trillion in daily commerce continues to run through 60-plus year old COBOL systems. Just two years ago, it was reported that the banking and insurance industries spend close to 75% of IT budgets maintaining workhorse systems, such as these COBOL systems.\u201d This is just one of hundreds of accounts showing how reliant businesses are on technology and how difficult it can be to move to new platforms.\nThe big question is this: When is the right time to switch software and what are the tell-tale signs that the time is now and not later? This white paper is based on our years of experience working with thousands of companies that were faced with this same question. Our goal is to help you and your team to understand what to look for and to put some hard data to the inefficiencies caused by staying with the wrong software for too long.\nTHE CPA\u2019S GUIDE TO ENTRY-LEVEL ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE...",

        "raw_content": "Philip Cooke and Andrea Piccaluga (Eds)\nEdward Elgar, 256pp, \u00a369.95, ISBN 1-84376-821-6\nReviewed by Frank Rennie, Lews Castle College, UHI Millennium Institute.\nThis is an edited collection of twelve chapters, with the addition of an introduction and conclusions, on the topic of the knowledge economy as it currently refers to regional development. Some time is spent at the start tracing the evolution of the concept of the knowledge economy and related subjects such as \u201cthe information society\u201d and the use of ICT and/or \u2018knowledge intensive industries\u2019 in the stimulation of regional economies. The following chapters then deal with conceptual analysis of exemplars and comparison of different perspectives from Europe, North America, and Japan. This is primarily a book concerned with analysing the theoretical perspective on how the knowledge economy contributes to local and regional development, how its effects can be measured, and how these effects might be incorporated in regional policy interventions. The overall impact is the production of a great deal of theoretical considerations, inter-leaved with some specific examples of how the theory plays out in practice, but (perhaps of necessity) a rather patchy and erratic progression through the subject area. The book is a very useful contribution to the literature on a subject that is becoming increasingly popular \u2013 namely the linkage between clusters of \u2018knowledge economy\u2019 activity (regional universities, software and high technology industries, regional ICT infrastructure) and local/regional economic re-generation.\nAlmost inevitably this collection does not provide any \u2018blueprints\u2019 or answers for budding planners or development agencies, but it serves a useful purpose in documenting a range of experience and case studies of policy attempts to link regional development strategies to various aspects of the knowledge economy. This collection is for dipping into, rather than devouring cover to cover, and will be better used to provide a general discussion on the backdrop of the subject title rather than as a \u2018manual\u2019 of good practice. The language of the text reflects the heavily theoretical perspective and though it claims that it is intended for \u2018a wide-ranging audience\u2019 it will be mostly used by academics in the various sub-disciplines of economic studies rather than by practitioners or development managers. Some chapters, such as the critical review of the knowledge economy (chapter 12) provide a useful literature review and analysis, while several other chapters are more specific in their focus upon regional interventions and their results, so the wider application to the subject has to be inferred. In particular I feel that the role of regional colleges and higher education institutes could have been more detailed and more comprehensive, given the trends towards distributed learning, elearning, applied research, and the geographical decentralisation of man of the functions of knowledge management and administration.\nIn sum, the book provides a useful collection of articles that give a very partial review of the subject but in view of the growing importance of the topic it will form a useful inclusion in the college library. Despite the welter of related academic articles in this general area of discipline, there has been remarkably little that attempts to bring the different levels of academic analysis together to provide some coherent, underpinning theory for the view that regional economies can be manipulated, or experimented with, utilising knowledge management",

        "raw_content": "between Saat Sq. and Bagh'shomal junction. As a cooperative company, the specialty and subspecialty hospital of Behboud was founded in 1989 as 429 Nasr cooperative Co. with the initial name of Nasr clinic in a rented building. Thanks to endless efforts of the founders, good reputation among Tabriz citizens, and considerable requests from city's dignitaries, the administration decided to expand the hospital. Therefore, after doing official formalities and buying the current place, the establishment of 6-story building was started. In 2002, Behboud hospital was opened in the form of a 50 \u2013bed general hospital equipped with different clinics and surgery rooms including delivery parts, gynecology and women operations, men surgery, newborns, laboratory, 24-hour pharmacy, radiology, sonography, nuclear medicine, physiotherapy, general & specialty clinics. After fulfilling all predefined goals in short time and increasing the number of professional staff, the chief administration of the hospital tried to enlarge the system by adding a 10-story building which is at the final steps of construction. Definitely, simultaneous with expanding the area of the hospital, the number of beds will be increased in the near future.",

        "raw_content": "In Memory of Mr. Ma Jujun, a Falun Dafa Practitioner from Changji, Xinjiang Province\nSeptember 21, 2005 | By a Falun Dafa Practitioner from Xinjiang Province\n(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Ma Jujun was a Falun Dafa practitioner from Changji, Xinjiang province. Because he constantly validated Dafa, corrupt officials sentenced him to two years in a labor camp. After his release, the 610 Office and the national security staff arrested him two more times and sent him to a brainwashing center at a wool plant in Xinjiang province for further persecution. Because he was steadfast in his belief, he was frequently trailed, monitored, harassed and threatened. Later, he was arrested and sent to the Mental Hospital in Urumchi where he suffered inhuman torture. He was persecuted to death on September 27, 2004. His vast kindness and firm belief in Dafa left an everlasting impression on me. The following is what I remember about him. I'm publishing this on the one-year anniversary of his death to show respect and mourning for Mr. Ma Jujun.\nMr. Ma Jujun was somewhat slender and of average height. At a glance, he appeared to be very na\u00efve. When I first saw him, I was touched by his frankness and enthusiasm. He cared about new practitioners. If he found that someone did not have Dafa books, he would go out and buy them to give to new practitioners. Once, there were many new practitioners who came to study without Dafa books. He put aside his personal business and took a bus to Shihezi to buy several books, thereby solving the problem. He was an easy person to get along with. We all liked him.\nAfter July 20, 1999, Mr. Ma Jujun wrote an appeal letter and mailed it. As he was preparing to go to Beijing to make the appeal, he was arrested by police from the National Security team. He was illegally detained at a detention center. As a steadfast practitioner in Dafa, he refused to write a letter of repentance, so the police sent him and two other practitioners to a forced labor camp. In Wujiaqu forced labor camp in Changji, his mind and body were devastated by unimaginable physical and psychological torture.\nAccording to some eyewitness, since he requested permission to do the exercises in the forced labor camp, the police persecuted him with electric batons, threats, curses, restriction of his personal freedom, and more.\nIn November 2001, in order to vindicate Dafa, all practitioners in the labor camp stepped forward and protested against the persecution in the camp. The police handcuffed practitioner Li Yulin's hands onto a heater because he was the first one who stepped forward. Then the police fooled other Dafa practitioners by saying that he was in the office. Mr. Ma Jujun immediately asked to go to the office and take a look. The police threw him to the ground and pulled off his shoes. Three to five police dragged Mr. Ma Jujun to the third floor, beating him all the way. Later on, corrupt staff members, prison guards and many criminals surrounded Dafa practitioners and abused them further.\nThe last time I saw Mr. Ma Jujun was on a winter day. At that time, he was very thin and was not wearing enough clothing. But from the expression in his eyes I could tell that he was more determined than ever. I talked with him for over an hour. At that time, I was in a relatively fearful mindset. I was moved by his firm belief. Before I left, he reminded me to be more careful. I was truly reluctant to leave him.\nI never guessed that this meeting with him would be the last time we would see each other. One of his family members who was brainwashed by the evil Communist Party's lies reported him. He was arrested by National Security Bureau agents and later died from the persecution he then suffered in the mental hospital in Urumchi. I felt very sad.",

PROVIDED TO China Daily\nThe head of Merck Group has merged traditional values with a modern multinational company as it expands in China\nYour senses are bombarded by a rainbow of colors when you click on to the Merck Group website.\nRolled out two years ago, this flamboyant online gateway is distinctly brash for a company which can trace its roots back to 1668.\nAfter all, the descendants of Friedrich Jacob Merck, the man who founded the firm in Darmstadt, Germany, are still involved in this global juggernaut.\n\"Merck is a company driven by a passion for research and discovery,\" said Stefan Oschmann, chairman of the executive board and CEO at Merck Group.\nThe company's three business divisions, healthcare, life sciences and performance materials, have thrived after a string of mergers and acquisitions.\nAnnual revenue is about 15 billion euros (.58 billion), with 2 billion euros spent on R&D last year, according to Merck's website.\nWith up to 50,000 employees, the company operates in 66 countries, \"working on breakthrough solutions and technologies\", the conglomerate reported.\nMerck might be old, but the group is quick to embrace change, such as e-commerce and artificial intelligence.\n\"Restructuring is now ancient history and we are harvesting the fruit from those efforts,\" said Oschmann. \"We would not have survived nearly 350 years if we were not open to novel trends.\"\nMerck is still about 70 percent owned by the descendants of the founder. Market investors hold the other 30 percent.\nNaturally, Oschmann has to strike the right balance between long-term values and short-term gains.\nBut his feel for what is right has helped him as the company expands in the world's second largest economy.\nIn an in-depth interview with China Daily, the 60-year-old CEO talked about Merck's relentless drive for innovation, business opportunities in China and his view of globalization.\nHow do Merck's products relate to everyday life?\nIn healthcare, we work in oncology (cancer treatments), neurology and multiple sclerosis. In life science, when new drugs are being developed, scientists across the world will eventually be able to use our products.\nWe also make performance materials. These are used for display screens and chip making (for an array of electrical goods, such as smartphones, tablets and PCs).\nHow do the three businesses create synergy within the company?\nThe synergy exists mostly in new product development and research. When you look at precision gene-editing, there is a new technology where you can introduce and influence genetic material. We are a global leader in our life science division.\nWe can also use this in our healthcare operation.\nWe also see synergies in the digital world. For example, by acquiring Sigma-Aldrich Corp (a chemical, life science and biotechnology company), we are now one of the largest retailers of life sciences in the world. People say we are the Amazon of the lab.\nHow does China fit into your strategic plan?\nChina is a very important market for us. We are on track to complete a life science facility in Nantong, Jiangsu province.\nRemember, this is a country that lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty and gave them access to healthcare. This achievement has \"no parallel in world history\".\nAs for Merck, we need to invest in infrastructure in the next five years. We are also considering how to further digitize our business as China is an important place for that.\nWe plan to open an innovation hub by working with Chinese startups and academic institutions.",

        "title": "How Have Imperialists Instigated Tibetan Independence?",
        "raw_content": "How Have Imperialists Instigated Tibetan Independence?\n2011-05-17 17:50:11 tibet.cn Web Editor: Zhang\nThere was no such word as \"independence\" in the Tibetan vocabulary at the beginning of the 20th century. After the British imperialists started the Opium War of aggression against China in 1840, China was reduced from an independent sovereign country to a semi-colonial country. Imperialist forces took advantage of a weak Qing Dynasty and began plotting to carve up China, Tibet included.\nIn order to bring Tibet into its sphere of influence, British aggressors invaded China's Tibet twice in 1888 and 1903. The Tibetan army and civilians rose to resist but were defeated. In the second aggressive war against Tibet, the British army occupied Lhasa, and the 13th Dalai Lama was forced to flee from the city. The invaders compelled the Tibetan local government officials to sign the Lhasa Convention. But because the Ministry of External Affairs of the Qing government believed the Lhasa Convention would do damage to national sovereignty, the high commissioner stationed in Tibet by the Qing government refused to sign it, leaving it ineffectual.\nAfter their failure to assume full control of Tibet through direct military incursion, the imperialists changed their tack and began plotting to separate Tibet from China. On August 31, 1907, Britain and Russia signed the Convention Between Great Britain and Russia, which changed China's sovereignty over Tibet into \"suzerainty.\" This marked the first time Chin's sovereignty over Tibet was altered into \"suzerainty\" in international documents.\nThe year following the 1911 Revolution, Britain took advantage of the political chaos in China after the collapse of the Qing Dynasty and the new birth of the Republic of China, and put before the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs a five-point demand, indicating the denial of China's sovereignty over Tibet. When the Chinese government rejected the British demand, the British blocked all the roads leading from India to Tibet. In 1913 the British government inveigled the Tibetan authorities into declaring independence and proposed that \"Britain be the weaponry supplier after total independence of Tibet;\" \"Tibet accept British envoys' supervision of Tibetan financial and military affairs in return for Britain's support of Tibetan independence;\" \"Britain be responsible for resisting the army of the Republic of China when it reaches Tibet;\" \"Tibet adopt an open policy and allow freedom of movement of the British.\" (Zhu Xiu: 60-Year Chronology of Tibet) However, Britain's schemes failed.\nIn 1913, taking advantage of the fact that Yuan Shikai, who had usurped the presidency of the Republic of China, was eager to get foreign diplomatic recognition and international loans, the British government forced the Beijing government to participate in a tripartite conference of China, Britain and Tibet, namely the Simla Conference held at the behest of the British government. Before the conference, Charles Bell political officer sent to Sikkim by the British-Indian government, privately met with Lon-chen Shatra, the representative of the Tibetan local government to the conference. Bell trumpeted to Lon-chen Shatra that \"suzerainty\" implied \"independence.\" In his book Tibet: Past and Present, Bell wrote, \"When I met Lon-chen Shatra in Gyantse, I advised him to bring down all the documents which he could collect bearing on the Tibetan relationship to China in the past, and on the former's claims to the various provinces and districts which had from time to time been occupied by China.\"\nStirred up by the British, the Tibetan representative raised the slogan of \"Tibetan independence\" for the first time. He also claimed \"Tibetan territory includes Qinghai, Litang, Batang and Dajianlu.\" When these demands were rejected by the representative of the Chinese government, the British delegate introduced the pre-arranged \"compromise\" scheme, which divided China's Tibetan-inhabited areas into \"inner Tibet\" and \"outer Tibet.\" \"Inner Tibet,\" including Tibetan-inhabited areas in Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan provinces, would be under the jurisdiction of the Chinese government. With regard to \"outer Tibet,\" including Tibet and west Xikang, the Chinese government was requested to \"recognize the autonomy of outer Tibet\" and \"refrain from interfering in its internal affairs;\" \"however, China may still send its high commissioner to Lhasa and maintain an escort army of no more than 300 soldiers.\" The essence of this \"compromise\" scheme was to change China's sovereignty over Tibet into \"suzerainty,\" and separate Tibet from the authority of the Chinese government under the pretext of \"autonomy.\" Naturally these unreasonable demands were strongly opposed by the Chinese people. On July 3, 1914, the Chinese government representative Chen Yifan upon instruction refused to sign the Simla Convention. In his statement, Chen said, \"Government of China refuses to recognize any agreement which His Majesty's Government and Tibet might conclude independently either now or in the future.\" The Chinese government also sent a note to the British government, reiterating its position. Therefore, the conference broke down.\nIn the summer of 1942, the Tibetan local government, with the support of the British representative, suddenly announced the establishment of a \"foreign affairs bureau,\" and openly carried out \"Tibetan independence\" activities. These actions, as soon as they were made public, were condemned unanimously by the Chinese people. The national government also issued a stern warning. Under this pressure, the Tibetan local government had no choice but to withdraw its decision and reported the change to the national government. At the \"Asian Relations Conference\" held in New Delhi in March 1947, the British imperialists plotted behind the curtains to invite Tibetan representatives and even identified Tibet as an independent country on the map of Asia in the conference hall and in the array of national flags. The organizers were forced to rectify this after the Chinese delegation made serious protests.\nAround the end of 1949, the American Lowell Thomas roamed Tibet in the guise of a \"radio commentator\" to explore the \"possibility of aid that Washington could give Tibet.\" He wrote in a US newspaper: \" The United States is ready to recognize Tibet as an independent and free country.\" In the first half of 1950, a load of American weaponry was shipped into Tibet through Calcutta in order to help resist the PLA's entry into Tibet. On November 1 of the same year, US Secretary of State Dean Acheson openly slandered China's liberation of its own territory of Tibet as \"invasion.\" In the same month the United States prodded some other countries to propose a motion at the United Nations for intervention in China's Tibet. The scheme was unsuccessful in face of the stern stand of the Chinese government and the opposition of some countries.\nHistorical facts over more than a century clearly demonstrate that so-called \"Tibetan independence\" was, in reality, cooked up by old and new imperialists out of their crave to wrest Tibet from China. The 14th Dalai Lama in his early years pointed out, \"It was the imperialists who, taking advantage of the Tibetan people's antipathy to the Qing Dynasty and the reactionary Kuomintang government, attempted by enticement, deception and instigation to get the Tibetan people to separate from the motherland and come under their oppression and enslavement.\"",

        "raw_content": "Whether you\u2019re planning to upgrade from one home to another, or are buying a home for the first time, strategizing and saving for a down payment will be on your mind (or should be). But just because it\u2019s important and possibly challenging, doesn\u2019t mean it has to be stressful. If you have a plan and know your options, it can become much easier. If you\u2019re in the market for a new home this year, or planning for the future, here are just some of the basics we think you should know:\nWhy is 20% down the standard?\nSimply put, because it saves you money. This is the sweet spot where lenders prefer you to be, where the best rates are, no Private Mortgage Insurance is required, and most important - your payments will be lowest. Obviously if you can save 20% for a down payment, that\u2019s the way to go.\nSo let\u2019s assume you\u2019ve done the basics. You\u2019ve set a target price range for your new home, calculated how much you need to put down, determined your timeframe, and put a basic savings plan together - things like carving out some space in your budget for saving, maybe setting up an automatic savings, and trimming the fat (especially things like paying off credit cards or other high interest payments first). But have you considered every available avenue for maximizing your savings?\nFor example, if you have an IRA it can be a potential source of some helpful funds. You can withdraw up to $10,000 without penalty if you\u2019re a first time buyer. So can your spouse if you\u2019re married, meaning you can tap up to $20,000 this way. (And under current IRS laws, you don\u2019t even have to be actually purchasing your first home. You can qualify if you or your spouse haven\u2019t owned a principal residence any time time in the two years before the new purchase.) If you don\u2019t have an IRA, but have a company 401k, you can always consider borrowing against it for some extra down payment funds. Unlike the IRA withdrawal, you\u2019ll have to pay a 401k loan back, but at least this money (and the interest) goes back into your own savings.\nWhat about loans with less than 20% down?\nThere are many options available for down payments of less than 20%. If you can put 10% down, you can still get a conventional loan but you\u2019ll have to pay PMI, or Private Mortgage Insurance. This adds a small percentage premium to your loan and payments, but the upside is that once you reach 20% equity in your home, you can request that your lender cancel the PMI. (They\u2019re required to cancel it automatically once you have 22% equity.)\nIf you have less than 10% to put down you still have far more options than many buyers realize. We\u2019ve mentioned before that if you qualify for a loan backed by the Federal Housing Administration, you may be able to put down as little as 3.5%. In addition to FHA loans, there are VA loans for veterans that are available with 0% down! And although many buyers may have heard of these programs, many more are not aware of the nearly 2,300 state and local Down Payment Assistance programs available across the country. Depending on what city and state you\u2019re in, they may offer low interest loans, tax credits and even grants. On average, down payment assistance saves the buyer almost $18,000 over the life of the loan (much more in higher priced markets), but many buyers don\u2019t even look into whether they may qualify! There\u2019s essentially free money out there, going unclaimed. Downpaymentresource.com is a good place to start if you\u2019re looking for information on what programs may be available in your area.\nBottom line, when you\u2019re strategizing a future down payment, talk to a lender or your REALTOR. Don\u2019t forget that if you don\u2019t have a loan officer yet, we can recommend one. Make sure that you\u2019ve checked out all available avenues, done your homework, and put a plan in place. Don\u2019t hesitate to ask us more about this! We\u2019d love to have a conversation about your plans, or about any of your real estate needs.",

        "raw_content": "Vibratory screener helps raise little neck clams\nNew Jersey company Clam Daddy\u2019s has been selling hard shell little neck clams (Mercenaria mercenaria) since 1984. The company breeds and grows its own fresh clams in a temperature controlled hatchery. The company focuses on upscale outlets such as gourmet restaurants and seasonal produce markets that demand top quality, rather than mass markets that buy primarily on price.\nIndividualised customer service fuels steady growth\nThe development of plastics some fifty years ago heralded the end of the use of wood as the preferred material for storing and transporting fish and seafood. Plastics were durable, mouldable, hygienic, lightweight, with good insulating properties, and easily customised. These properties make them the most widespread material for storage and transport in the fishing and aquaculture production and processing sector.\nTechnology to mitigate fraud in complex supply chain\nThe horsemeat scandal branded \u2018horsegate\u2019, saw millions of beef burgers, ready meals and packs of mince withdrawn from supermarket shelves in 2013 when it was revealed they contained undeclared horsemeat. According to experts and many peer reviewed publications, the seafood industry could be even more susceptible to this kind of fraud than other sectors. New technology could hold a solution.\nInteraction of storage hardware and computer software\nThere are thousands of fish and seafood products on the market and new ones being added every day. This places more demands on storage technology and warehouse management, for all the products have to be procured, stored and put together at the customer\u2019s request (often in varying quantities) and delivered at the right time and in the right quantity. This would no longer be possible today without computer technology and automation in the storage sector.\nMapping hazards for greater safety\nGeographic Information Systems (GIS) store, display, and allow the manipulation of geographic or spatial data facilitating sharing and analysis of this information. Essentially, one can think of it as map-making on the computer, and using these maps to analyse a situation and solve problems.\nPlastic bins as a service rather than a product\nOne of the most ubiquitous pieces of equipment used by the fish and seafood industry is the plastic tub. They are used for storage, for transport, for salting and marinating, and for collecting waste. Tubs come in a variety of shapes and sizes and are also made of different materials depending on the use to which they are put, and the environment in which they are deployed, for example, containers used on board may need to be more robust than those intended for a land-based facility.\nMultipurpose cooking machine from Bastra\nProcessing machines from Germany in worldwide demand\nDespite its relatively small area and population, Germany is one of the world\u2019s most important export nations. It owes its economic success not only to the big stock exchange listed companies but also to numerous small and middle sized enterprises that have often been in the hands of the same family for generations. One of the strengths of German industry is processing machines that set international standards in the seafood sector.\nRefrigeration or freezing equipment that is also mobile\nTermodizayn specialises in designing and implementing customised turnkey solutions for coldstores. These skills are also being put to use to develop mobile cooling solutions that can be used in many different contexts.\nFields of application for weighing scales in the fish industry and fish trade\nGravimetric determination of mass using weighing scales of different design is today indispensable in all areas of life, whether commercial, economic or personal. Weighing technology is used everywhere, for example to check catch volume, to register or trace the movement of goods, or to enable adherence to exact recipes as well as to promote honest trade. The range of available weighing scales is accordingly large and there is a solution for almost every application and measuring range.",

Steven Levitt, an economics professor at Chicago University, and Stephen Dubner, a journalist, teamed up to write two books\u2014Freakonomics and SuperFreakonomics\u2014which explore \u201cthe hidden side of everything.\u201d Levitt brilliantly manipulates and interprets statistical data in order to find why things happen the way they do in everything from teacher\u2019s cheating on their students\u2019 tests to realtors selling your home for less than they could to drug dealers choosing to live at home with their parents. There\u2019s no doubt about it, these books are fascinating.\nAs Levitt examines these situations, he feels compelled to go where the data leads him. In at least one case, this approach landed him in the midst of some very intense controversy.\nLevitt was fascinated by the decline in crime during the 1990s. As the 80s came to a close, everyone expected the growing crime rates to continue to skyrocket. By all accounts, our society should have been overcome by crime. But suddenly, magically, crime dropped dramatically in the 90s. Why?\nMany explanations have been offered. Some say that changes in the crack market caused the drop in crime rate. Others cite innovative policing strategies (incidentally, this faulty (according to Levitt) assumption forms a major basis for Malcolm Gladwell\u2019s conclusions in The Tipping Point). But Levitt finds these and many other suggestions unconvincing\u2014they can only account for a small percentage of the reduced crime rate.\nSo what really caused the decline? According to Levitt, it was the ruling of the infamous Roe v. Wade trial, which led to a huge increase in abortions. As Levitt looks at the numbers, he sees a huge drop in the population of those who tend to commit the highest number of crimes. In other words, the type of people who most often get abortions are also the type of people who live in the types of environments that tend to produce the highest number of criminals. So his premise is that these people had more abortions, and eventually, when these unborn babies would have been reaching their prime age for committing crimes (the 1990s), the criminals simply were not around to commit the crimes they otherwise would have committed. So why was there less crime? Because a huge number of the would-be criminals were aborted.\nNeedless to say, Levitt\u2019s conclusion here has been hugely controversial. Levitt himself says that his findings should not be used to support the pro-choice position, but it\u2019s easy to see why pro-choicers would do so and why pro-lifers would be outraged by his conclusion. For Levitt, he was simply explaining what he found to be the most convincing way of interpreting the data.\nSo here\u2019s the real question: how should we, as Christians, respond to this?\nAssuming that Levitt\u2019s conclusion is correct (which is definitely an assumption; I am in no position to judge the truth or falsity of his analysis), do we simply disregard the evidence because we don\u2019t like where it leads? I hope that we are above this. If Christianity is true, we don\u2019t need to doctor the facts in order to support our beliefs. So let\u2019s reject that approach.\nBut does that mean we need to start promoting abortions? Of course not! I think that what Levitt found in his study confirms what God says about the world, albeit in a roundabout way. In essence, Levitt is saying that society functions better when teenagers aren\u2019t having babies outside of wedlock. He\u2019s not trying to make any moral judgments; he is simply saying that when we don\u2019t have as many babies born to parents practicing promiscuous sex\u2014the kind of parents who want sex but don\u2019t want babies\u2014then society works better.\nWouldn\u2019t we agree?\nGod has designed sex to operate in a specific context, and when we try separate it from that context, the beautiful fruit of a sexual relationship\u2014a child\u2014becomes an unwanted burden that ruins our lives and drags down our society. But when we celebrate sex in its appropriate context and maintain healthy relationships, the fruit of sex\u2014a child\u2014becomes a welcome part of a loving family, and society is strengthened. God tells us that the world works this way, so we shouldn\u2019t be surprised to see an economist agreeing.\nOf course, Levitt wasn\u2019t arguing against extramarital sex any more than he was arguing for abortion. And some pro-choicers will use Levitt\u2019s study to promote abortion. Rather than being outraged over statistical analysis, however, our response should be ministry. We should seek to help those who are hurting, even if their pain is self-inflicted. But keep in mind that our goal is not a comfortable, crime-free society. Rather, we are working to see the people around us conformed to the image of Christ for the glory of God. And ultimately, this approach is the only one that will lead to a sinless society, though we are waiting for Christ\u2019s return to experience this reality.\nIn Books, Humanity, Relationships\tAbortion, Crime, Freakonomics, Malcolm Gladwell, Roe V.

        "raw_content": "Hi Bob! I have a videotape of FM on the Midnight Special in 1973 and you were particularly \"on\" playing-wise that night. Do you have any recollections about this performance? Also, as I am too young to remember, did FM ever play Nashville during your time in the band? And, what are your feelings or favorite memories about the Penguin album these days. Thank you and happy holidays to you and yours. (Thomas Helmick, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA)\nI do remember it, with fond memories, and have wondered if anyone had a copy of that tape; I've never seen it myself. I don't suppose we could grab a copy??\nI vaguely remember Nashville; it was all a bit of a blur. I remember going into the Western stores looking for cowboy boots; and Mick and I visited a nightclub with very fine C&W music...\nFavourite moment of the Penguin: playing a Martin tenor G banjo :). I busked the track from beginning to end, and it all worked; I think it was \"The Derelict\", with Dave Walker singing. Made a nice change from the usual guitaring.\nI'm sure you'll admit (as Bob Welch has) that this is a unique forum, filled with knowledgeable folks regarding your FM and solo work (unlike a very short radio show, or print interview with some magazine flunky), so I have a few questions I'd like for you to explore with us:\n1) You appear to be in good humor regarding your exit from FM (i.e., the roadie visit), but can you describe for us the gammut of emotions you must have felt after the dust settled and you were out of a job? Were you relieved to get out? Sad? Angry at anyone?\n2) I'm sorry, but this next question might be \"common knowledge\" ... if it is (and I have somehow missed it), I apologize beforehand: Did Davis offer you a spot with his other incarnation of FM?\n3) When you say \"keeping in touch; cold response,\" who did you try to contact? Was that an effort on your part to mend those fences? When did you make the attempt?\n4) This may be way too personal, so I'm preparing myself for a \"That's none of your #$%@&-ing business\" response, but were you and Jenny still an item after your split with FM? If not, have you had a chance since that time to speak with her? Are there any harsh feelings between the two of you over that whole episode? I'm laughing to myself as I write this next part, but please feel free to skip this question. God knows, none of us want to offend or make you feel uncomfortable!\n5) I wish someone had asked B.Welch or Rick Vito this question, also, but is there anything you'd like to discuss? Maybe some tidbit of information that has or hasn't been in a book somewhere regarding your involvement with FM?\n6) Speaking of Rick Vito, have you ever met him? Helluva nice guy. (I'm only asking because the FM family appears to sometimes have the strangest of interconnections - past and present.) Are there any other past members of FM you haven't met yet?\nThank you for this, sir! Have a great Christmas. (Also, a special thanks to Marty and Lisa for setting up this QA session! Very enlightening!) (Tim Bucci, Springfield, Illinois, USA)\nYes, I think it's absolutely wonderful to be able to communicate one-to-one with such enthusiastic folks as yourself, who really want to know the nuts and bolts of the whole thing.\nQ1: Post-exit, I was emotionally very neutral. There was a whole big world out there, studio sessions, new opportunities etc. George Harrison approached me about playing guitar on his new album (alas, the album didn't come together as he was in the throes of a divorce and he disappeared to India for some time). Leaving the band was just part of the journey; as George said, all things must pass.\nQ2: No, Clifford didn't offer me a spot with the bogus band.\nQ3: You do tend to stay in touch with musicians you've worked with, spent a lot of time with, whether they're successful or not... it's the saying \"hello\" that's important. With Mick and Christine I detected a certain aloofness, a certain distance. As I said before, it seems a shame, as time is so short...\nQ4: Re Jenny: she's since remarried, and is a qualified counsellor/psychologist; we keep in touch and remain the best of friends. In fact just recently she said much the same thing, that the Mick and Christine distance was sad given the shortness of time...\nQ5: Anything to discuss: let's talk about the new record :). Let's hope there'll be lots to discuss in the New Year :).\nQ6: No, I've not met Rick Vito. Apart from him and Dave Mason, I think I've met everyone - I've met Billy Burnette, and I think everyone else...\nThanks for your interest and the questions. Have a great Christmas yourself!\nBob, my question for you is, did you ever meet Stevie Nicks? Did you ever work with her on a project? If so,what's she like? You said you get a cold response from the other members of the band, and I was just wondering if this includes Stevie? Thank you. (Anna, San Jose, California, USA)\nPlease see an earlier answer for more detail on this. Briefly, I found Stevie charming and engaging.\nA small correction: the \"cold response\" was not from the band as a whole. For instance Bob Welch and I remain firm friends.\nHi Bob, time for a \"tabloid question\", someone has to ask (in fact if anyone already has, I apologise for the repetition). Any regrets about getting involved with Jenny? Was it love or just one of those things? How did it feel to be the third guy to be fired from the 'Mac? Do you regard Mick as a hypocrite given his later behaviour particularly regarding Stevie? On a musical note, did you have the same rapport on stage with Mick that Bob said he had in the last Q&A regarding spontaneous jamming etc? Have you been asked to participate in any solo albums by 'Mac members (Danny excepted)? Thanks for the time taken on this Q&A, I look forward to receiving the album and if you do decide to tour, keep Dublin in mind. (Peter Cunningham, Dublin, Ireland)\nNo, no regrets. Jenny and I are still good friends.\nRe leaving the Mac: it might sound strange, but I didn't feel at the time that I was fired. Usually you're fired by the boss; in my case there was no boss there. It felt more like a parting of the ways.\nRe Mick's behaviour: I really didn't follow that situation; I wasn't interested, not my business. Don't know.\nRe musical rapport: working with Mick on drums was a pleasure, but our stage set was a fixed format, very rehearsed, and we never digressed into jamming/improvisation.\nRe solo albums: no, Danny was the only one.\nSee you in Dublin! Mine's a Guinness.\nConsidering what Bob Welch said in his Q&A last month about there being some separation between he & the trio of Mick, John & Christine, I was wondering if you, being English, felt that \"us vs them\" kind of vibe? (Steve Denison, Long Beach, California, USA)\nAs the new boys, Bob and I had to prove ourselves. I wasn't aware of an Anglo-American divide; it was essentially an English band. But music was the passport; I could have been a Chinaman so long as I could still play my guitar :).\nSee you in Peking :).\nBob. re; \"monogrammed underwear\"......do you still like the \"shortie\" pajamas ? ;-) Here's hoping ! (Bob Welch, Nashville, Tennessee, USA)\nWe'd better get this one right or we're all going down the swanee.... with stained underwear :^)\n(Teehee!)\nHi Bob. Where's that fiver you owe me? Only joking. Just read you Q&A. Keep up the good work, it's important. I don't have a question but if you need a place to play the connaught's always available. See you soon (Bernie Akehurst, Hove, Sussex, UK)\nNever mind a place to play, how about somewhere to stay? Things might get tight in the New Year... could I owe you the fiver?? :)\nThanks for your support, mate.\nI really like your guitar playing on Mystery To Me. Do you know of any live performances that were recorded during your period with FM? What was your inspiration for Caught In the Rain? Do you have any special memories regarding the recording sessions for both Mystery To Me and Penguin? (Tom Kirby, Roswell, New Mexico, USA)\nThanks to you and the others for the reviews - they gave me a nice \"up\" - first reactions from the new project. Very encouraging!\nRe live performances: as far as I know there's only the Midnight Special that Thomas Helmick mentioned; I'd be delighted to hear of others. Perhaps there are more... but I'm not sure.\nRe \"Caught In The Rain\" - I think it was simply that I was playing around with open-D tuning, and that was one of the first results. Sorry if this is not poetic enough for you :) - it was more of a musical inspiration.\nRe recording sessions: each project probably absorbed a couple of months of our time. I can't really pinpoint specific highlights; our approach was quite methodical, workmanlike. The music would tend to reveal itself towards mix time, and from my own point of view I would then realise the validity of the work, which I found very pleasing. That in itself would be the highlight for me.\nThanks so much for doing the Q and A!! I have just ordered your new album and I can't wait to hear it! I read Mick's book, and in that, Mick comes across as thinking of himself very much as the \"father\" figure to the band - he thinks Christine's Oh Daddy is about him. He also comes across as being very possessive of the band, also. Am I on the right track here in thinking that is how he perceives himself? Mick is definitely the spokesperson for the band now. Was he then? What was it like to work with Christine and John? (Vianna, Alexandria, Virginia, USA)\nHi Vianna,\nMick was definitely the boss, the backbone; he definitely held it all together. Credit where credit is due - at the low points, if it wasn't for him, the band could quite easily have experienced a parting of the ways. I'm not sure about the \"Daddy\" thing; although I did sense that Christine did admire him strongly. I sensed it more as an older brother relationship.\nRe Christine and John: touring as a married couple obviously had its pressures. Because of the sheer amount of touring that was incurred, I suppose it must have become intolerable for them. But they had the dignity to keep the personal stuff separate from the job at hand. As musicians, they were a delight to work with.\nOf course, I must thank you for participating in the Q&A. I must also tell you that \"Mystery To Me\" is in my top 5 FM albums (\"Rumours\" isn't), in large part due to your presence. Now to the questions...\n1.) About your two solo LP's from the 80s: Upon learning of their existence, I've been curious as to what they sound like. Are the production values \"of the times\" (i.e. early synths/drum machines)? It seems unlikely that I'll find them soon, so I'd like to use my imagination.\n2.) What have you been up to in the interim (1982-1998)?\n3.) I'm the Danny Kirwan website guy so I can't resist; have you seen or spoken to Danny since the \"Hello There Big Boy\" sessions? The album cover seems similar to Bob Welch's \"French Kiss\" and \"Three Hearts\" album sleeves. Do you think he was \"satirizing\" Bob, or was it an ill-conceived marketing attempt on the part of his record company?\nThanks for you time. I'm looking forward to buying the new CD when the $ is available! (Chris Frohring, Cleveland, Ohio, USA)\nI'm not answering any questions until you slap the greenbacks down! :) Only kidding.\nQ1: Solo albums production values: no, it wasn't synths & drum machines. More of a standard line-up, i.e. bass, drums, keys, guitar. Good songs, good production, but slight timidity with the vocals as these were my first singing sessions.\nQ2: Re 82-98: touring, gigging, recording... forgive me, but this has been answered in some depth already throughout the Q&A.\nQ3: No, sadly I haven't had any contact with Danny since those sessions. Re the album cover: to the best of my knowledge, I don't think there was any conscious parody of Bob's cover. Probably best to ask Clifford Adams/Davis. I'm afraid I don't know much about it.\nKeep up the great work with the Danny website, and let's hope we see him back on the scene in the not too distant future.\nHi Bob :) Thank you for answering some questions for us. I have a weird question for you. First of all..congrads on the new album..and I loved your work with FM! I was wondering...tho it seems totally unrelated..but you worked with John and Christine as a married couple..I wondered how they were back then..how close they were..if the relationship seemed to be strained even then.\nAlso..what is your fav. Fleetwood Mac song as a member...and what is your favorite from after you were no longer in the band? And also..how did you feel about the success of Rumours? Thank you so much!! :) (Janet, Palmyra, New Jersey, USA)\nFunnily enough, I've just answered a similar question about John and Christine above. Obviously there was a strain, being a married couple constantly touring. There was a closeness between them, but I think the road just took its toll in the end.\nMy favourite song is probably \"Why\" from Mystery to Me. Probably my favourites from when I wasn't in the band go back to the early Peter Green material, \"Oh Well\", \"Rattlesnake Shake\". Raw and gutsy. The latter FM sound got a bit too refined for my taste. I do like the odd tune, such as \"Oh Daddy\", which I think Christine sings really well; very haunting.\nRe Rumours: fabulous! I was delighted. Must have been initially an incredible surprise for them. What a transition from a blues band into a world-class pop band!\nI only know your playing and singing from MYSTERY TO ME and PENGUIN and I've always wondered what happened to you. It's good to know you're still making music. I'm ordering the new CD right away and looking forward to hearing it very much. Anyway, here are my questions:\nI've always heard that Fleetwood Mac from that era ('72 to '74) was a hot band in concert -- you certainly were one of the band's most distinctive lead guitarists -- do you remember any particular on-stage high points from that period?\nI love PENGUIN, even though a lot of folks consider it a \"spacey\" record. What was your experience making it?\nThanks, Bob, and I'm really looking forward to hearing your new CD. (Rock Stamberg, Riverside, Connecticut, USA)\nI've never stopped making music :). I just got into the TV/film area, which probably looked as far as the commercial record stores as if I'd died or disappeared!\nRe highpoints: it's always unpredictable. You could go on stage exhausted and have a fabulous gig. (And sometimes the converse.) They tended to happen when least expected, which I suppose is what makes touring worthwhile. I'm trying to remember specific highpoints; and really can't, it was a continuum.\nI enjoyed making the Penguin. It was very diverse; in retrospect we were attempting to break new ground, which I suppose was inevitable with fresh input. Overall I thought it was a very good album; I enjoyed being involved with it.\nThank you too. If you've enjoyed the other work I'm sure you'll enjoy this one :).\nI really liked your work on Penguin (and Mystery to Me as well), in fact \"Caught In the Rain\" is one of my favorite FM tracks. And both solo albums are very good. I promised Marty I'd write a review of the new CD once it arrives. Best wishes for that...and future recordings! Now...on with the questions:\nAfter you put out you last solo album, Night Light, what've you been up to? What other albums did you guest on since then (1981)?\nDo you have \"control\" over your two early records? Any chance they'll be released on CD?\nAre there any other tracks (besides \"Good Things\") left over from the Penguin and Mystery to Me sessions that haven't yet seen the light of day? Any more Bob Weston-penned stuff? (Mark Trauernicht, Alexandria, Virginia, USA)\nAgain I'm surprised you've heard the solo albums, as they were European releases. And the record label went bust, so they didn't reach many ears. Glad you enjoyed them!\nRe post-82: I've covered this ground pretty thoroughly in the Q&A already; forgive me for not going over it again. Also Marty's discography is pretty comprehensive.\nSome years ago I tried to obtain the masters to the two solo albums from Simran, the production company. The producer, Alan Callan, was amenable; another European label wanted to re-release them. But alas, Alan became more and more cagey and never did pick up the option.\nI'm not aware of any more dormant material. I'd forgotten about \"Good Things\" until now.\nI hope you get the new CD soon, and enjoy it. I'm looking forward to your review! Thanks.\nHi Bob, just wanted to say I think your a wonderful guitarist and Penguin and Mystery To Me are two of my favorite FM albums. I wanted to know what kind of guitars you play and if you have a favorite. I noticed in the FM days you played Les Paul Gibsons. I have a Fender Telecaster thinline that I make noise with, knowing only three chords, but I'm trying :)Hopefully one day I can play as well as you :)\nAlso I just have to ask what you meant in the Bob Welch Q&A if he bought any ice cream vans lately??? I've been wondering about this for some time. Inside joke perhaps.... Anyway, all the best to you and hope to see you in Southern California soon!! (David Gaines, Norwalk, Connecticut, USA)\nRe guitars: I still use the same Les Paul Gibson, which I bought in New York in '72 from a guitar store next to Manny's called Peter Stuyvesant. I immediately took it for a refret, and the luthier expressed surprise and told me it was a handmade custom Gibson - lucky me. I used this on both the Penguin and Mystery to Me albums. I also used a custom f-hole Telecaster as rhythm guitar on some tracks. I have other Gibson and Fender guitars, but that Les Paul is my favourite. I think it was made in '68.\nBest of luck with your Thinline Tele; they do have a unique tone. Enjoy it.\nRe the icecream van: very simply, at Benifolds Bob Welch bought a British Mini which had been converted into an icecream vendor's van - you could stand up in the back and dispense icecream cones, or with a bit of luck have a waltz with your partner :). I just thought it was hysterical, and typically Bob Welch, eccentric as usual!\nSouthern California - hmmmm... sounds tempting, as we're sitting here in close to subzero temperatures waiting for Santa in England. Yohoho!\nHello again, Bob! I just received your new CD in the mail today, and I am truly delighted! You have created a great mix of light pop tunes and mellow blues. One of my favorite tracks is the instrumental \"Shaken Not Stirred.\" Was there any particular James Bond movie or scene that inspired this song? Are you a big James Bond fan? (If so, who is YOUR favorite Bond?) I also found \"Lady Hurricane\" and \"Walkin' Blues\" to be especially creative. How long did they take to fully write and record? Do you foresee any similar songs on your next CD? Thanks, and keep up the great work! (John Mauro, Almond, New York, USA)\n\"Shaken Not Stirred\" was not written consciously as a James Bond reference, but you're kind of right in that the imagery I had in mind was Riviera, Monte Carlo, Maserati, romantic fantasy... It had a working title of \"Latino\", and at a late stage my co-producer Rory Cameron suggested \"Shaken Not Stirred\", which seemed to encapsulate it nicely. And there's only one real James Bond: Sean Connery. I love the early Bond movies; I thought the music was fantastic.\n\"Lady Hurricane\" and \"Walkin' Blues\" were written in a flurry of activity with three or four others, probably over a couple of weeks. (Incidentally the album was recorded and mixed in three and a half weeks.) Some of the lyrics to \"Walkin' Blues\" were written a while ago for a previous incarnation of the song; I resurrected it, and found it worked very well with the bluesy slide guitar.\nI've already written several of the songs for the next album, and yes, there does appear to be a sense of continuity so far.\nThanks also for your review. Your comments are very encouraging.\nI am very pleased to be able to have the chance to ask you a question or two. I truly feel that you are, by far, one of Fleetwood Mac's best guitarists, and you are vastly underrated in my opinion. now, since no one else has asked you this question yet, I guess I'm the man to do it, so here we go: What do you think led to your involvement with Jenny Fleetwood? Did Mick ever correspond with you after you left the band? How was Mick's temper during the Mystery to Me tour following his realization of your involvement with Jenny, prior to your dismissal from the band? Lastly, are Mick, John and Christine as difficult to deal with as Bob Welch makes them out to be? Thanks again for your time.:) (Rick Spataro, New Kensington, Pennsylvania, USA)\nJenny and I were born within an hour of one another, and, take it or leave it as an answer, we seem to have enjoyed a certain empathy between us, initially as real good friends. It's the classic situation: Mick was unattentive towards her, and in turn that pushed our friendship that much closer, to where the parameters became blurred.\nMick and I were initially the best of friends; understandably he was wounded when he discovered my involvement with Jenny. During the first part of the tour he was his usual together self. Then the strain started to show... he had a young family to consider as well as his relationship with his wife. Again understandably the tour became secondary for him and he felt the need to take time out. Jenny had left the tour; I believe Mick flew directly to Africa to consider his next move.\nMick didn't initially correspond with me after the breakup. Sometime later he very graciously agreed to play on a track on my second solo album. It was a great pleasure to meet and work with him again.\nRe Mick, John and Christine: my viewpoint is very different from Bob's. I didn't spend half as much time with them and therefore have a more pleasant memory. Perhaps they were a little more down to earth in those days.\nJust wanted to let you know I just bought your new cd off the Penguin and Its excellent. I really enjoyed your work on The Fleetwood Mac albums and this release reminds me much of your earlier work. I love the guitars. The instrumentals are great. Caught in The Rain was always one of my favorite Tracks. Thanks Bob! (Bill, Bel Air, Maryland, USA)\nI'm glad to hear you're enjoying the record, and thanks a lot for your support!\nHey Bob, I see that you have worked with Murray Head, isnt he the guy who was Judas on the original Jesus Christ Superstar? The only other work of his I am aware of is One night in Bangkok written by Bjorn and Benny of Abba! How did you meet him and what works of his would you say are worth checking out? Your work on the two FM albums was outstanding ! (Andy Bishop, Arlington, Virginia, USA)\nYes, Murray was indeed Judas in Superstar, one of Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's early musical successes. \"One Night In Bangkok\" was a hit single from the musical \"Chess\", and yes, Bjorn and Benny were involved, together with Webber and Rice again.\nI met Murray via a mutual friend, who quite rightly thought it would be an ideal partnership. Very interesting period, for me as a guitarist - the songs were kinda \"unplugged\" and I feel I really got the hang of recording acoustic guitar well. The two albums that we made are definitely worth checking out: \"Say It Ain't So\" is considered a bit of a classic and was a massive success throughout Europe (including the UK) and Canada. The second album was titled \"Between Us\", again a very nice piece of work in my view.\nDid any of the band contact you after the 'Rock Family Trees' documentary? (Thomas Powell, Wolverhampton, West Midlands, UK)\nFinally someone from the UK!!\nAfter the documentary I got a call from Bob Welch; it'd been a while, and he'd moved in the interim, so it was nice to catch up. And it was a very pleasant surprise to hear Jenny's voice on the phone after a long interval. We had the opportunity to meet, to talk about old times, new times. I didn't hear from any of the other members; in fact for some reason Christine was not even on the programme.\nYou worked with FM on one of their most underrated and underappreciated albums: Penguin. I love your angular, sharp-edged guitar work there. I was wondering if you were the one who created the infectious guitar melody in Christine's \"Remember Me,\" or if she wrote that part out for you to play. (By the way, you're also the best-looking guitarist the band ever had.) (Tony Leuzzi, Rochester, New York, USA)\nI'm glad you enjoyed the Penguin; it's a pity it didn't receive the recognition it perhaps deserved. Re \"Remember Me\": I created my own guitar melody over the basic structure of the song she presented, i.e. voice and piano.\nI completely agree about the best-looking guitarist comment. God, there were some ugly bastards!! :)\nI just received your new album in the mail and IT IS GREAT!! I particularly like the instrumentals. I was wondering if you have heard of Leo Kottke and Michael Gulezian?? You seem to be influenced by their styles of guitar playing. How did you get inspired to write such great material? What other accoustic guitarists would you recommend listening to? (Tom Kirby, Roswell, New Mexico, USA)\nMany, many moons ago I used to listen to Leo Kottke. Is he still recording these days? I don't know the other chap's work, although I know the name. Honestly can't say I'm influenced directly by that style of guitar; if anything my influences reach towards the old masters such as Mississippi Fred McDowell, Big Bill Broonzy, Elmore James etc.\nRe inspiration: as someone once said, not so much inspired as perspired :). I might get the seed of an idea out of the ether, but the rest of it is work.\nRe other acoustic guitarists: I have to go back in time, every time, and listen to Django. It doesn't reflect my style at all, but perhaps that's why I find him so refreshing.\nI got a chance to hear your new album finally. I quite enjoy it. I sent a review in yesterday. I wish you much success with it. How about a little information on your film and television work? The album at times feels like a soundtrack. Your guitar work is so tasteful, precise. Best wishes. (Timothy Kee, North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, USA)\nThanks for the review; it's appreciated. Re the film/TV music: it's been very diverse and extremely interesting - by which I mean there are no boundaries and limitations, unlike the mainstream commercial market, where one has to strive for hook lines, catchy lyrics, etc. For example, just recently I completed a full-length feature TV movie for LWT. Of course you're given a brief, an outline of what's required; but the parameters seem to be extremely flexible. I was involved with a French movie, \"Diesel\"; rather like a French \"Mad Max\" :). This was completely different to the LWT movie - there's so much variation, from orchestration to one solo acoustic guitar. I hope this answers your question!\nHi Bob. Thanks for your participation in this Q&A. I wanted to pick you brain about the Penguin album. Were you given free reign with your musical ideas when you first joined FM? How is it that you came to sing with Christine on the song 'Did You Ever Love Me'? Did you ever perform that song live? Did you sing any other songs while touring with FM? Who's idea was it for the steel drums on that song? You played slide on that album, was there a concious effort to bring in a country feel to the album to mesh with Dave Walker's style? When did it become apparent that Dave wasn't gelling with the band and who was the first to notice? That's all for now, thanks again Bob and happy holidays! (Doug LeVasseur, Providence, Rhode Island, USA)\nYes, \"free rein\" loomed important with the band. It was important for me because that's the only way I can work, as I'm not formally trained. And it was important for the others in that I was expected to contribute to the material.\nRe \"Did You Ever Love Me\": I think we were messing around in the studio one afternoon, and unusually for me at the time, I was doing a little bit of singing, just for fun. The rest of the gang picked up on it, and Christine suggested we sang a duet. I think we may have performed it live once or twice, but it wasn't a regular fixture. There were no other songs I sang on; I was simply into guitar. The steel drums were, I think, a band decision; general consensus.\nThere wasn't a conscious effort to go country on that album; it was just the way the music was tending. Perhaps the country tag comes from my use of a tenor banjo on one of the tracks.\nI think we've covered Dave Walker's exit in some depth earlier. Forgive me if I refer you to that.\nHappy holidays to you too; and thanks for the question.\nDid you read Mick Fleetwood's bio, and if so, did you find out anything you didn't know? Also, did you follow the group's music after your departure.(Probably couldn't avoid it during the Rumours era)and finally,(I'm new to the pre-Buckingham/Nicks history, so I don't know if you were around for any of this) what happened to Danny Kirwin specifically to trigger his eventual \"retreat\" from society. Thanks. (Todd Fox, Evansville, Indiana, USA)\nI did read Mick's bio; I found it extremely informative and heartfelt. I pretty much knew the whole background, so nothing new really revealed itself :). As for following their career post-me, as you say, it would have been hard to avoid them :). I thought they were really excellent, much more commercial.\nRe Danny: I don't know what the \"specific trigger\" was that resulted in his illness. You'd need to be a qualified psychologist to answer this one... sorry. Peter and Danny did experiment with acid in the early days, when Danny was still young and tender, and they were both very sensitive people. Perhaps this was a contributory factor.\nHell-o again Bob. Just few for you Bob:\n1.I got your new cd what a nice listen ! Can you tell us about the wonderful young lady who sings and about working with Max?\n2.Tell Max we want the hummingbird stuff out please. Great music. 3. Seen you play 2 times in Minnesota. Great shows-- one with the Purple and a solo show a few weeks down the road. How did you like touring with the Purple vs the solo tours?\n4. Did you like Minnesota Bob [cold] ? 5. Funny thing Bob. I just saw a man in a ice cream truck wearing big glasses and a teddy singing about Future Games. Know him Bob?\nThanks Bob. Hope to see you in Minnesota some time we can look for the \"ice cream truck\". (Bill Seamans, Buffalo, Minnesota, USA)\nQ1: Nice question! Lianne Carrol - yes, she is a wonderful lady, a true musician. She plays piano and sings par excellence. She pursues a solo career with her husband Roger Carey, who also appears on the album on bass. They play Ronnie Scott's in London, which is considered a classy gig; she's that kind of gal.\nI've worked with Max Middleton for many years, since his days with Jeff Beck. I consider Max to be a master musician; he has conducted the London Symphony Orchestra on sessions for Chris Rea, for example. His musical resum\ufffd is MAXimally impressive, and a lovely guy to boot, which I do often :).\nQ2: I will!\nQ3: Fleetwood Mac touring with Deep Purple was always fun; we'd done it so many times together it became like a bit of England on the road in America.\nQ4: To be honest, touring tends to become a bit of a blur, i.e. one Holiday Inn after the other. You must realise there's no time for tourism. One arrives at the hotel, quick change of clothes, down to the auditorium for soundcheck, back to the hotel to eat, back to the auditorium to perform, and then, with luck, so to bed to do it all over again the following night. (Partying was not an option, contrary to popular belief - just too exhausting.)\nQ5: Did you go for the banana split or the icecream sundae? And did you say Bob Welch was wearing a teddy??! Whatever next! (Perhaps a tuck, daahling...!)",

Patton, RN\nFor fifty-five years, the promotion of water fluoridation was justified by the theory that fluoride, incorporated into tooth enamel during childhood, would result in teeth resistant to decay. This prior dogma was conclusively swept away three years ago by the same authorities that long declared the theory \u201cscientifically undebatable.\u201d Its import was barely noted in the major media.\n\u201cFluoride, the key agent in battling caries [tooth decay], works primarily via topical mechanisms\u2026\u201d and \u201c\u2026fluoride incorporated during tooth development is insufficient to play a significant role in caries protection.\u201d These statements, from the July 2000 Journal of the American Dental Association (JADA), followed an October 22, l999 report from the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) stating, \u201c\u2026fluoride prevents dental caries predominantly after eruption of the tooth into the mouth, and its actions primarily are topical for both adults and children.\u201d Clearly, the theoretical justification for ingesting fluoridated water no longer exists.\nDr. John Featherstone, author of the JADA cover story, remains a fluoridation advocate. Still, he told the Salt Lake Tribune (10/29/00), \u201c\u2026brushing with fluoridated toothpaste twice a day is as good or better than fluoride in the drinking water.\u201d Almost all toothpaste contains 1000-1500 parts per million (PPM) fluoride providing far more concentrated exposure to teeth than brief contact with drinking water at 1 PPM. Fluoridated toothpaste is widely used in Western Europe, which is 98% free of water fluoridation, yet tooth decay rates have declined as much there as in the US. Moreover, the judicious use of fluoridated toothpaste minimizes potential adverse health effects associated with lifelong ingestion of fluoride (a cumulative toxin), and allows for individual freedom of choice.\nDental fluorosis (permanently discolored and defective tooth enamel) has long been medically defined as a symptom of fluoride toxicity and is the red flag of overdose. This condition is now epidemic in North America with rates up to 65% in fluoridated areas and 40% in non-fluoridated areas. It is caused by fluoridation and uncontrolled fluoride intake from foods and beverages processed with fluoridated water, dental treatments, fluoride supplements, pharmaceuticals, and pesticide residues on produce. Although proponents now dismiss fluorosis as a cosmetic effect, even mild fluorosis is an abnormal condition.\nA major report from the National Research Council in 1993, Health Effects of Ingested Fluoride, cited several studies revealing, \u201c\u2026dental fluorosis is more prevalent among African-Americans than among other races or ethnic groups.\u201d The studies showed more than twice the fluorosis risk for black children. This doubled risk was later confirmed in a 1999 study in Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology. Authors Kumar and Swango wrote, \u201cThe higher risk for dental fluorosis observed among African-Americans is consistent with other studies.\u201d A small percentage of fluorosis reported was rated as moderate to severe which can be disfiguring and psychologically devastating.\nSilicofluorides (SiFs) are used in 90% of US fluoridation programs, yet have never been tested for safety or efficacy by any governmental agency. SiFs are toxic waste products of the fertilizer industry and contain trace contaminants including lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. Two hundred thousand tons of these chemicals are sold annually for fluoridation. If not used for this purpose, industry would have to pay for disposal into hazardous waste sites.\nIn 2000, an alarming study in the journal NeuroToxicology reported that water supplies treated with silicofluorides are linked to higher lead levels in children\u2019s blood. This confirmed an earlier published study by authors Masters and Coplan, bringing the number of children studied to over 400,000. As with dental fluorosis, the data show that elevation in blood lead levels for African-American children is twice that of other racial groups. It is well established that even small increases in blood lead result in lower IQ scores, behavioral problems, juvenile violence, and crime.\nAs with all studies negative to fluoridation, the blood lead studies have been attacked by proponents, yet the data analysis and conclusions of these peer-reviewed studies remain scientifically unrefuted. In fact, the National Toxicology Program of the CDC has nominated silicofluorides to be tested, for the first time, for toxicological and carcinogenic properties-after more than 50 years of experimental use on humans. (See www.fluoridealert.org for documentation of effects on human health.)\nThe relentless promotion of fluoridation always centers on children and the disadvantaged. However, mounting evidence of fluoride overexposure and its adverse effects, in both fluoridated and nonfluoridated areas, indicates that children are being harmed \u2014 and African-American children are being harmed the most. This is especially intolerable in light of the admission that ingesting fluoridated water was never warranted.\nThe Precautionary Principle has become a guiding concept to modern scientists. Its basic tenet is: When there is evidence of harm from an action or substance, even in the face of scientific uncertainty, action should be taken to prevent that harm. There is now an escalating call from scientists and health professionals around the world to bring scientific integrity to evaluation of the fluoridation issue. Since 1990, over 120 North American cities have rejected and/or stopped the practice as public awareness of the risks continues to grow. County Commissioners have every reason to reject this ill-conceived and outdated public policy. County residents should turn out in force at the August 26th Fluoridation Workshop to make certain they do.\nThe author resides in Jupiter, FL and is Steering Committee Chair, South Florida Citizens for Safe Drinking Water.",

        "raw_content": "Slave girls raped?\nby exmuslim82 \u00bb Fri Mar 18, 2011 7:26 pm\nThis is my first post. I left Islam almost 8 years ago. I was a white convert who became Muslim in Feb 2001. Anyways, I read this article by Bassam Zawadi that claims that slave girls were never raped by Muslims in Muhammad's time. Here is the article and I would love a good refutation of it by someone who is knowledgeable in these matters. Thank you...\nDoes Islam Permit Muslim Men to Rape Their Slave Girls?\nBassam Zawadi\nThere are those who argue that since Islam permits Muslim men to have sexual intercourse with their slave girls, this then means that they also have the right to rape them.\nThis is absurd. The right to have sex with a woman does not necessarily imply that one has the right to rape her as well. To say that a Muslim man has the right to rape his slave girl is like saying that a man has the right to rape his wife; which is not true. Refer to this article.\nRape in Islam is completely forbidden. See this and this.\nImam Maalik said:\n\u0627\u0644\u0623\u0645\u0631 \u0639\u0646\u062f\u0646\u0627 \u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062c\u0644 \u064a\u063a\u062a\u0635\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0631\u0623\u0629 \u0628\u0643\u0631\u0627\u064b \u0643\u0627\u0646\u062a \u0623\u0648 \u062b\u064a\u0628\u0627 : \u0623\u0646\u0647\u0627 \u0625\u0646 \u0643\u0627\u0646\u062a \u062d\u0631\u0629 : \u0641\u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0635\u062f\u0627\u0642 \u0645\u062b\u0644\u0647\u0627 , \u0648\u0625\u0646 \u0643\u0627\u0646\u062a \u0623\u0645\u064e\u0629 : \u0641\u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0645\u0627 \u0646\u0642\u0635 \u0645\u0646 \u062b\u0645\u0646\u0647\u0627 \u060c \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0642\u0648\u0628\u0629 \u0641\u064a \u0630\u0644\u0643 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u063a\u062a\u0635\u0628 \u060c \u0648\u0644\u0627 \u0639\u0642\u0648\u0628\u0629 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u063a\u062a\u0635\u0628\u0629 \u0641\u064a \u0630\u0644\u0643 \u0643\u0644\u0647\nIn our view the man who rapes a woman, regardless of whether she is a virgin or not, if she is a free woman he must pay a \"dowry\" like that of her peers, and if she is a slave he must pay whatever has been detracted from her value. The punishment is to be carried out on the rapist and there is no punishment for the woman who has been raped, whatever the case. (Imam Maalik, Al-Muwatta', Volume 2, page 734)\nImam Al Shaafi'i said:\n\u0648\u0625\u0630\u0627 \u0627\u063a\u062a\u0635\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062c\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0627\u0631\u064a\u0629 \u062b\u0645 \u0648\u0637\u0626\u0647\u0627 \u0628\u0639\u062f \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0635\u0628 \u0648\u0647\u0648 \u0645\u0646 \u063a\u064a\u0631 \u0623\u0647\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0647\u0627\u0644\u0629 \u0623\u062e\u0630\u062a \u0645\u0646\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0627\u0631\u064a\u0629 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0642\u0631 \u0648\u0623\u0642\u064a\u0645 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u062d\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0632\u0646\u0627\n\"If a man acquires by force a slave-girl, then has sexual intercourse with her after he acquires her by force, and if he is not excused by ignorance, then the slave-girl will be taken from him, he is required to pay the fine, and he will receive the punishment for illegal sexual intercourse.\" (Imam Al Shaafi'i, Kitaabul Umm, Volume 3, page 253)\nNotice that both of these top classical scholars have stated that a man is to be punished for raping a slave girl. Of course this not our ultimate proof that Islam forbids rape, but this is to show that the early classical scholars surely did not understand Islam to be teaching it.\nIn an authentic narration from Sunan Al Bayhaqi, Volume 2, page 363, Hadith no. 18685 we read the following story:\nAbu al-Hussain bin al-Fadhl al-Qatan narrated from Abdullah bin Jaffar bin Darestweh from Yaqub bin Sufyan from al-Hassab bin Rabee from Abdullah bin al-Mubarak from Kahmas from Harun bin Al-Asam who said: Umar bin al-Khatab may Allah be pleased with him sent Khalid bin al-Walid in an army, hence Khalid sent Dharar bin al-Auwzwar in a squadron and they invaded a district belonging to the tribe of Bani Asad. They then captured a pretty bride, Dharar liked her hence he asked his companions to grant her to him and they did so. He then had sexual intercourse with her, when he completed his mission he felt guilty, and went to Khalid and told him about what he did. Khalid said: 'I permit you and made it lawful to you.' He said: 'No not until you write a message to Umar'. (Then they sent a message to Umar) and Umar answered that he (Dharar) should be stoned. By the time Umar's message was delivered, Dharar was dead. (Khalid) said: 'Allah didn't want to disgrace Dharar'\nNotice that Umar ibn Al Khattab (the second caliph) ordered the man who captured the slave girl and had sex with her to be stoned for this crime, for he took the slave girl unjustly.\nDo these critics who raise these arguments know Islam better than Umar ibn al Khattab?\nWe anticipate what our opponents might say in response. They will say that the scholars whom I just cited and the story of Umar ibn Al Khattab only refer to someone who raped a slave girl who did not belong to him, however one may rape the slave girl that is his property. Even though the story in Sunan Al Bayhaqi makes it clear that the man had sex with the girl after possessing her, we will accept this response only for the sake of argument.\nIt is nonsense to suggest that one could rape the slave girl he possesses because the Prophet (peace be upon him) warned us that we must take good care of those under our authority:\n\"There is no person to whom Allaah has given people to take care of, and he fails to take care of them properly, but he will not smell the fragrance of Paradise.\" (Saheeh Bukhari no. 6731; Saheeh Muslim, no. 142)\n'Umar ibn al-Ahwas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that he heard the Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say during his Farewell Pilgrimage:\n\"Verily, you have rights over your women, and your women have rights over you. As for your rights over your women, they are that they should not allow anyone to sit on your beds whom you dislike, or allow anyone into your houses whom you dislike. Verily, their rights over you are that you should treat them well with regard to their clothing and food.\" (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 1163, and Ibn Maajah, 1851).\nThe Prophet (peace be upon him) made it clear that we shouldn't harm slaves:\nSaheeh Bukhari\nVolume 1, Book 2, Number 29\nNarrated Al-Ma'rur: At Ar-Rabadha I met Abu Dhar who was wearing a cloak, and his slave, too, was wearing a similar one. I asked about the reason for it. He replied, \"I abused a person by calling his mother with bad names.\" The Prophet said to me, 'O Abu Dhar! Did you abuse him by calling his mother with bad names You still have some characteristics of ignorance. Your slaves are your brothers and Allah has put them under your command. So whoever has a brother under his command should feed him of what he eats and dress him of what he wears. Do not ask them (slaves) to do things beyond their capacity (power) and if you do so, then help them.\nThe Prophet (peace be upon him) said that our slaves are like our siblings. Who would rape his own sister?\nThe Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade causing physical harm to slaves:\nSaheeh Muslim\nHilal b. Yasaf reported that a person got angry and slapped his slave-girl. Thereupon Suwaid b. Muqarrin said to him: You could find no other part (to slap) but the prominent part of her face. See I was one of the seven sons of Muqarrin, and we had but only one slave-girl. The youngest of us slapped her, and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) commanded us to set her free.\nBook 015, Number 4086\nAbu Mas'ud al-Badri reported: \"I was beating my slave with a whip when I heard a voice behind me: Understand, Abu Masud; but I did not recognise the voice due to intense anger. He (Abu Mas'ud) reported: As he came near me (I found) that he was the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) and he was saying: Bear in mind, Abu Mas'ud; bear in mind. Abu Mas'ud. He (Aba Maslad) said: threw the whip from my hand. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Bear in mind, Abu Mas'ud; verily Allah has more dominance upon you than you have upon your slave. I (then) said: I would never beat my servant in future.\nIf the Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade slapping and whipping slaves then it's unthinkable that he would have permitted raping them. It just makes no sense.\nThus, our argument is as follows:\n- The Prophet (peace be upon him) has prohibited causing harm to and oppressing those under our authority.\n- Rape is causing harm to someone and is considered a form of oppression\n- If the critic says that the Prophet (peace be upon him) made an exception to this general prohibition by allowing one to rape his slave girl, the burden of proof is upon him to show evidence for this exception.\n- If he is not able to show evidence for this exception then we must assume that the Prophet's (peace be upon him) general command is upheld, thus proving that Islam forbids one to rape his slave girl.\nCritics would reply back and say that it's unthinkable that slave girls back then would hae willingly consented to having sex with their Muslim captors who just killed their family members. They would usually point to the specific example of Banu Al-Mustaliq.\nThe narration states:\nSahih al-Bukhari 4138 - Narrated Ibn Muhairiz: I entered the mosque and saw Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri and sat beside him and asked him about Al-Azl (i.e., coitus interruptus). Abu Sa'id said, \"We went out with Allah's Messenger for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq, and we received captives from among the Arab captives and we desired women and celibacy became hard on us and we loved to do coitus interruptus. So, when we intended to do coitus interruptus, we said, 'How can we do coitus interruptus without asking Allah's Messenger while he is present among us?' We asked (him) about it and he said, 'It is better for you not to do so. There is no person that is destined to exist, but will come to existence, till the Day of Resurrection.'\" (Sahih Bukhari, no. 4138)\nHere the critic's argument goes something like this:\n- The Islamic traditions show that Muslims had sex with their slave girls\n- According to my subjective logic it is inconceivable that slave girls would consent to having sex with the captors that just killed members from their tribe\n- In conclusion, the Islamic traditions show that Muslims raped their slave girls\nThese critics are ignorant of history, for slave girls did consent to having sex with their captors back in the past.\nJohn McClintock said:\nWomen who followed their father and husbands to the war put on their finest dresses and ornaments previous to an engagement, in the hope of finding favor in the eyes of their captors in case of a defeat. (John McClintock, James Strong, \"Cyclop\u00e6dia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature\" [Harper & Brothers, 1894], p. 782)\nMatthew B. Schwartz said:\nThe Book of Deuteronomy prescribes its own rules for the treatment of women captured in war [ Deut 21:10-14 ] . Women have always followed armies to do the soldiers' laundry, to nurse the sick and wounded, and to serve as prostitutes\nThey would often dress in such a way as to attract the soldiers who won the battle. The Bible recognizes the realities of the battle situation in its rules on how to treat female captives, though commentators disagree on some of the details.\nThe biblical Israelite went to battle as a messenger of God. Yet he could also, of course, be caught up in the raging tide of blood and violence. The Western mind associates prowess, whether military or athletic, with sexual success.\nThe pretty girls crowd around the hero who scores the winning touchdown, not around the players of the losing team. And it is certainly true in war: the winning hero \"attracts\" the women. (Matthew B. Schwartz, Kalman J. Kaplan, \"The Fruit of Her Hands: The Psychology of Biblical Women\" [Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, 2007] , pp. 146-147)\nThus we see from two non-Muslim authors that slave girls back in the past would consent to having sex with their captors. So if we put aside our 21st century mindset and look at history objectively, there is nothing wrong with saying that slave girls back then consented to having sex with their captors.\nOne might object to the fact that the above authors are only speaking about the Israelite era. However, that is really not a good response. The point I am trying to make is that the idea of the possibility of slave girls willingly having sex with their captors is not absurd. Thus, one is required to provide proof that those slave girls who had sex with their Muslim captors did not consent. This is especially due to the fact that 1) It was possible for slave girls back in the past to consent to having sex with their captors and 2) Muslims were prohibited from harming their slave girls.\nIf the critic says that not all of the slave girls felt this way and there were bound to be some who didn't want to have sex, I would agree with him. However, how does this prove that the Muslims raped their slave girls? How does the critic know whether the Muslim back then actually raped the slave girl who was unwilling to have sex with him? Isn't it possible that if he saw her unwilling he would have sold to her to another Muslim at a cheaper price? Or he would have purchased another slave girl who was willing to have sex with him? Or he would have waited for her to consent, for by that time he would have treated her very nicely and convinced her that Islam is true and that it was her tribe's fault for starting the battle, etc. Yes these things are possible.\nHow does the critic know that none of these things happened? What is his proof that the Muslims raped their slave girls?\nThe narration doesn't show:\n- How many Muslim captors decided to go through with having sex with the slave girls?\n- How many women actually ended up having sex with their Muslim captors?\n- Most importantly, whether any slave girls were raped\nEven if the critic is successful in showing that the Muslims raped them, what is his proof that this was approved by the Prophet (peace be upon him)? It's possible that Muslims committed sins back then and disobeyed the Prophet (peace be upon him). So where could the critic show us the Prophet (peace be upon him) approving of such behavior?\nHe cannot and I challenge him to.\nAnother narration that the critics appeals to is this:\nVolume 2, Number 2150\nAbu Said al-Khudri said: The apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Quranic verse, 'And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hands possess'. That is to say, they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period.\nThe critics would argue that no slave girl would consent to having sexual intercourse in the presence of her husband.\nHowever, this is a completely false translation of the hadith. The words \"in the presence of\" are no where to be found in the Arabic text.\nThe full Arabic text (found here) states:\n\u200f\u062d\u062f\u062b\u0646\u0627 \u200f \u200f\u0639\u0628\u064a\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0628\u0646 \u0639\u0645\u0631 \u0628\u0646 \u0645\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0629 \u200f \u200f\u062d\u062f\u062b\u0646\u0627 \u200f \u200f\u064a\u0632\u064a\u062f \u0628\u0646 \u0632\u0631\u064a\u0639 \u200f \u200f\u062d\u062f\u062b\u0646\u0627 \u200f \u200f\u0633\u0639\u064a\u062f \u200f \u200f\u0639\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0642\u062a\u0627\u062f\u0629 \u200f \u200f\u0639\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0635\u0627\u0644\u062d \u0623\u0628\u064a \u0627\u0644\u062e\u0644\u064a\u0644 \u200f \u200f\u0639\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0623\u0628\u064a \u0639\u0644\u0642\u0645\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0647\u0627\u0634\u0645\u064a \u200f \u200f\u0639\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0623\u0628\u064a \u0633\u0639\u064a\u062f \u0627\u0644\u062e\u062f\u0631\u064a \u200f\n\u200f\u0623\u0646 \u0631\u0633\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u200f \u200f\u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u200f \u200f\u0628\u0639\u062b \u064a\u0648\u0645 \u200f \u200f\u062d\u0646\u064a\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0628\u0639\u062b\u0627 \u200f \u200f\u0625\u0644\u0649 \u200f \u200f\u0623\u0648\u0637\u0627\u0633 \u200f \u200f\u0641\u0644\u0642\u0648\u0627 \u0639\u062f\u0648\u0647\u0645 \u0641\u0642\u0627\u062a\u0644\u0648\u0647\u0645 \u0641\u0638\u0647\u0631\u0648\u0627 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647\u0645 \u0648\u0623\u0635\u0627\u0628\u0648\u0627 \u0644\u0647\u0645 \u200f \u200f\u0633\u0628\u0627\u064a\u0627 \u200f \u200f\u0641\u0643\u0623\u0646 \u0623\u0646\u0627\u0633\u0627 \u0645\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0623\u0635\u062d\u0627\u0628 \u0631\u0633\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u200f \u200f\u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u200f \u200f\u062a\u062d\u0631\u062c\u0648\u0627 \u0645\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u063a\u0634\u064a\u0627\u0646\u0647\u0646 \u200f \u200f\u0645\u0646 \u0623\u062c\u0644 \u0623\u0632\u0648\u0627\u062c\u0647\u0646 \u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0634\u0631\u0643\u064a\u0646 \u0641\u0623\u0646\u0632\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u062a\u0639\u0627\u0644\u0649 \u0641\u064a \u0630\u0644\u0643 \u200f\n\u200f\u0648\u0627\u0644\u0645\u062d\u0635\u0646\u0627\u062a \u200f \u200f\u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0633\u0627\u0621 \u0625\u0644\u0627 \u0645\u0627 \u0645\u0644\u0643\u062a \u0623\u064a\u0645\u0627\u0646\u0643\u0645 \u200f\n\u200f\u0623\u064a \u0641\u0647\u0646 \u0644\u0647\u0645 \u062d\u0644\u0627\u0644 \u0625\u0630\u0627 \u0627\u0646\u0642\u0636\u062a \u0639\u062f\u062a\u0647\u0646\nIf the reader does not know how to read Arabic, let him bring someone who does and ask him whether he can point out to him the words \"in the presence of\". He won't be able to. The translation in Saheeh Muslim seems more accurate:\nAbu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah her pleased with him) reported that at the Battle of Hunain Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that:\" And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (iv. 24)\" (i. e. they were lawful for them when their 'Idda period came to an end).\nSo here we see that the Muslim soldiers were feeling uncomfortable with engaging in sexual intercourse with women who were already married. However, the verse was revealed saying that it is permissible to engage in sexual intercourse with slave girls even if they are married.\nImam Al Tabari in his commentary on Surah 4:24 cites several of the companions and second generation Muslims stating that the marriage of a woman is annulled after she has been captured and made a slave.\nImam Nawawi in his commentary on this hadith states:\n\u0641\u0625\u0646\u0647 \u064a\u0646\u0641\u0633\u062e \u0646\u0643\u0627\u062d \u0632\u0648\u062c\u0647\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u0641\u0631\nIt (i.e. to come to own a slave girl) annuls the marriage between her and her disbeliever husband. (Imam Nawawi, Sharh Saheeh Muslim, Kitab: Al Ridaa', Bab: Jawaaz Wati' Al Missbiyyah Ba'd Al Istibraa' wa en Kaana laha Zawj Infasakh, Commentary on Hadith no. 2643, Source)\nThus, we see that in the eyes of Islam this marriage becomes invalid (some opinions like that of the Hanafi school state other conditions required for the annulment to occur). The critic would definitely argue back stating \"what gives your religion the right?\" but that is not the point of discussion. This is an external critique of Islam and the basis for this discussion really isn't about this topic in particular but about whether Islam really is true and whether this is God's decree. To debate the specifics is just useless. The Muslim sees this decree to be internally consistent and submits to God's law that states that action x results in a divorce.\nOne might shout out to the Christian as well, \"What gives your Bible the right to declare a woman an adulteress if she happened to marry a man who divorced her by not following the proper procedures (Matthew 5:2)?\" The Christian really has nothing to say except the fact that he believes that this is God's decree and submits to it. He believes that God has the power and right to determine how divorce should take place (e.g. what conditions are valid for divorce) and submits to them. Well, the Muslim says the same thing in this regard.\nImam Nawawi goes on to say:\n\u0648\u0627\u0639\u0644\u0645 \u0623\u0646 \u0645\u0630\u0647\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0627\u0641\u0639\u064a \u0648\u0645\u0646 \u0642\u0627\u0644 \u0628\u0642\u0648\u0644\u0647 \u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0644\u0645\u0627\u0621 \u0623\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0633\u0628\u064a\u0629 \u0645\u0646 \u0639\u0628\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0648\u062b\u0627\u0646 \u0648\u063a\u064a\u0631\u0647\u0645 \u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0641\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0630\u064a\u0646 \u0644\u0627 \u0643\u062a\u0627\u0628 \u0644\u0647\u0645 \u0644\u0627 \u064a\u062d\u0644 \u0648\u0637\u0624\u0647\u0627 \u0628\u0645\u0644\u0643 \u0627\u0644\u064a\u0645\u064a\u0646 \u062d\u062a\u0649 \u062a\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u0641\u0645\u0627 \u062f\u0627\u0645\u062a \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u062f\u064a\u0646\u0647\u0627 \u0641\u0647\u064a \u0645\u062d\u0631\u0645\u0629 , \u0641\u0647\u0624\u0644\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0633\u0628\u064a\u0627\u062a \u0643\u0646 \u0645\u0646 \u0645\u0634\u0631\u0643\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628 \u0639\u0628\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0648\u062b\u0627\u0646 , \u0641\u064a\u0624\u0648\u0644 \u0647\u0630\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b \u0648\u0634\u0628\u0647\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0623\u0646\u0647\u0646 \u0623\u0633\u0644\u0645\u0646 , \u0648\u0647\u0630\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0623\u0648\u064a\u0644 \u0644\u0627 \u0628\u062f \u0645\u0646\u0647 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0623\u0639\u0644\u0645\nAnd know that the school of thought of Al Shafi'i and who agreed with him from amongst the scholars have stated that the idol worshipper and those whom have no religious book cannot be approached for sexual intercourse unless they convert to Islam first. As long as they are following their religion they are forbidden to approach. These slave girls (i.e. in the particular narration) are idol worshippers. This hadith and whatever resembles it must be interpreted as implying that the slave girls accepted Islam. There is no other choice but to interpret the hadiths this way and Allah knows best. (Ibid)\nSo here we see that a great number of scholars have argued that just as Muslims are forbidden to marry idol worshippers, they are forbidden as well from engaging in sexual intercourse with idol worshipping slave girls. In order to engage in the sexual act, the Muslim must wait for the slave girl to convert to Islam and in Islam there is no shred of evidence whatsoever that the Muslim can force or compel his slave girl to convert to Islam.\nWe see cases in the life of the Prophet (peace be upon him) where slave girls willingly prefer to accept Islam over returning to their tribe due to recognizing the truth of Islam and injustice of their own tribe for provoking the Muslims to war. The most famous case being that of Safiyyah, one of the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him).\nFurthermore, when analyzing the particular story mentioned in the hadith we see that no rape could have reasonably taken place.\nSaifur Rahman al-Mubarakpuri states:\nThe Enemy's March and their Encampment at Awtas\nWhen Malik bin 'Awf - the general leader - decided to march and fight the Muslims, he made his countrypeople take their wealth, women and children with them to Awtas - which is a valley in Hawazin land and is quite near Hunain. It differs from Hunain in its being adjacent to Dhi-Al-Majaz which is around ten miles from Makkah in 'Arafat's direction. [Fath Al-Bari 8/27,42]\nThe War-experienced Man wrongs the Leader's Judgement\nAs soon as they had camped in Awtas, people crowded round Malik. The old sane Duraid bin As-Simmah, who was well-known as a war-experienced man, and who was among those who gathered round Malik, asked: \"What valley are we in?\" \"In Awtas,\" they said. \"What a good course it is for horses! It is neither a sharp pointed height nor a loosed soiled plain. What? Why do I hear camels' growling, the donkeys' braying, the children's cries and the sheep bleating?\" asked Duraid. They said: \"Malik bin 'Awf had made people bring their women, properties and children with them.\" So he called Malik and asked him what made him do such a thing. Malik said that his aim was to have everybody's family and properties around them so that they fight fiercely to protect them.\" \"I swear by All\u00e2h that you are nothing but a shepherd,\" answered Duraid, \"Do you believe that there is anything whatsoever, can stand in the way of a defeated one or stop him from fleeing? If you win the battle you avail nothing but a man with a sword and a spear; but if you lose you will bring disgrace on your people and properties,\" then he resumed his talk and went on wondering about some septs and their leaders. \"O Malik, thrusting the distinguished people of Hawazin into the battlefield will avail you nothing. Raise them up to where they can be safe. Then make the young people mount their horses and fight. If you win, those whom you tarried will follow you, but if you were the loser it would be a loss of a battle, but your kinsmen, people and properties would not be lost.\" (Saifur Rahman al-Mubarakpuri, Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum (The Sealed Nectar): The Third Stage, Source)\nSo here we see that it was the disbeliever's fault for bringing their own women and children to the battle field. The Prophet (peace be upon him) was not interested in invading their lands and taking their women as it would be made clear as we read on:\nA similar battalion of horsemen pursued the idolaters who threaded the track to Nakhlah and caught up with Duraid bin As-Simmah, who was killed by Rabi'a bin Rafi'. After collecting the booty, the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] left for Ta'if to face the greatest number of the defeated idolaters. The booty was six thousand captives, twenty four thousand camels; over forty thousand sheep and four thousand silver ounces.\nSo here we see that the Muslims were victorious and obtained an impressive amount of war booty.\nThe Distribution of the Booty at Al-Ji'ranah\nUpon returning and lifting the siege in Ta'if, the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] had stayed over ten nights at Al-Ji'ranah before starting to distribute the booty. Distribution delay was due to the Prophet's hope that Hawazin's delegation might arrive and announce their repentance and consequently reclaim their loss. Seeing that none of them arrived, he started dividing the booty so as to calm down the tribes' chiefs and the celebrities of Makkah. The first to receive booty and the ones who obtained the greatest number of shares were the people who had recently embraced Islam.\nNotice this crucial point. The Prophet (peace be upon him) intentionally delayed distributing the booty because he wanted the Hawazin to come back and surrender and then collect their lost war booty.\nNotice how the Prophet (peace be upon him) was not eager to keep the women and have his men rape them as some critics allege.\nWhat happens next is amazing:\nArrival of the Hawazin Delegation\nHawazin's delegation arrived a Muslims just after the distribution of spoils. They were fourteen men headed by Zuhair bin Sard. The Messenger's foster uncle was one of them. They asked him to bestow upon them some of the wealth and spoils. They uttered so touching words that the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] said to them: \"You surely see who are with me. The most desirable speech to me is the most truthful. Which is dearer to you, your wealth or your women and children?\" They replied: \"Nothing whatsoever compares with kinship.\" Then when I perform the noon prayer, stand up and say: \"We intercede with the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] to exhort the believers, and we intercede with the believers to exhort the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] to forego the captives of our people fallen to their lot.\" So when the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] performed the noon prayer, they stood up and said what they had been told to say. The Messenger [pbuh], then, said: \"As for what belongs to me and to the children of Abdul Muttalib, you may consider them, from now on, yours. And I will ask my folksmen to give back theirs.\" Upon hearing that the Emigrants and the Helpers said: \"What belongs to us is, from now on, offered to the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh].\" But Al-Aqra' bin Habis said, \"We will grant none of what belongs to me and to Bani Tamim,\"; so did 'Uyaina bin Hisn, who said: \"As for me and Bani Fazarah, I say 'No'.\" Al-'Abbas bin Mirdas also refused and said: \"No\" for Bani Saleem and him. His people, however, said otherwise: \"Whatever spoils belong to us we offer to the Messenger of All\u00e2h ([pbuh].)\" \"You have undermined my position.\" Said Al-'Abbas bin Mirdas spontaneously. Then the Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] said: \"These people have come to you as Muslims. For this I have already tarried the distribution of the booty. Besides, I have granted them a fair option but they refused to have anything other than their women and children. Therefore he who has some of theirs and will prefer willingly to give them back, let them do. But those who favours to keep what he owns to himself, let them grant them back too, and he will be given as a recompense six times as much from the first booty that All\u00e2h may provide us.\" People then said, \"We will willingly offer them all for the sake of the Messenger of All\u00e2h.\" The Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] said: \"But in this way we are not able to find out who is content and who is not. So go back and we will be waiting for your chiefs to convey to us your decisions.\" All of them gave back the women and children. The only one who refused to comply with the Messenger's desire was 'Uyaina bin Hisn. He refused to let an old woman of theirs go back at first. Later on he let her go back. The Messenger of All\u00e2h [pbuh] gave every captive a garment as a gift.\nJust look at the mercy of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Indeed, this is the true definition of the word \"mercy\". Mercy is only real when one is in power to not be merciful yet willingly decides to be, just as we see the Prophet (peace be upon him) do in this situation (and many other situations as well).\nSo here we see that the Muslims weren't raping savages, but merciful human beings.\nThus, for this particular narration we can conclude that:\n- Muslims are not permitted to engage in sexual intercourse with idol worshippers unless they convert to Islam first and once they have converted to Islam it would make their consenting to sexual intercourse much easier.\n- There is no evidence of any ill treatment of the slave girls by the Muslim soldiers.\n- There is no evidence of any slave girls engaging in sexual intercourse with any Muslim soldier. The Muslims might have returned them back to their tribe before they had the chance to.\n- There is no evidence of any Muslim soldier raping his slave girl.\n- Even if there is evidence, there is no evidence that the Prophet (peace be upon him) approved of it.\nThe Islamic critic would also appeal to the following narration, which states:\nJami At-Tirmidhi 1137 - Jabir bin Abdullah narrated: \"We practiced Azl while the Qur'an was being revealed.\" . . . Malik bin Anas said: \"The permission of the free woman is to be requested for Azl (i.e. coitus interruptus), while the slave woman's permission need not be requested.\"\nHe would argue that this narration shows that one could engage in coitus interruptus without the permission of his slave girl, which means that he could rape her.\nThe first and most important thing to note is that the Prophet (peace be upon him) didn't say that, Imam Maalik said that. The Prophet (peace be upon him) is our final authority.\nImam Maalik's reasoning was that the free woman has the right to have a child. The man doesn't have the right to forbid his wife from having a child, thus he must ask her permission before doing azl. However, if the Muslim gets his slave girl pregnant, she seizes to become his slave girl and he must marry her. The Muslim therefore, doesn't have to ask for her permission to do azl when they make consensual sex.\nAgain, where is the rape? Even if Imam Malik said that you can rape her (which he didn't), he is not my final authority, the Prophet (peace be upon him) is. So what evidence did Imam Maalik use then from the Qur'an and Sunnah to justify his statement that one can rape his slave girl (which he didn't say, it's only for the sake of argument)?\nThe critic might reply back and say that the fact that the man has a \"right\" to have sex with his slave girl indicates that the man is permitted to do \"all it takes\" to take his rights.\nEven if we say that it is his right, it is his right just like how it is his right to receive obedience from his children. Just like how it is his right to get inheritance if his father passes away.\nNow is the critic seriously trying to argue that Islam would permit a man to physically abuse his children if they didn't give him his right of respect? Is he also trying to say that he can physically abuse and harm his sister if she were to try and steal some of his inheritance money?\nIn Islam, one of the rights that a Muslim has over his brother is to be visited when he is sick and to be greeted with peace. If my Muslim brother does not greet me with peace or visit me when I am sick, does that mean that I can physically abuse him until he does, so that \"he gives me my right\"?\nIt seems like this is what he is saying if he were to be consistent. According to this logic, if the Qur'an says someone is entitled to something or has a right to something that means that the person can do whatever he wants - even if it was forbidden - in order to obtain that right.\nThis is something absolutely ridiculous, which no Muslim scholar in antiquity has stated. I am really speechless and don't really know how to reply back to such a laughable argument.\nPlus, this could also work against the Christian. I can argue that the Bible states that the man has the right to have sex with his wife, thus if she refuses then he can hurt her! The Christian would reply back and say that he can't hurt his wife because there are other verses that state that he can't do so and this is exactly what we have shown in this article in regards to the slave girl.\nIslam forbids one to harm those under his authority. Since rape is considered a form of harm that would mean that rape is forbidden. We have also seen that history shows that slave girls in the past did consent to having sex with their captors; hence we must keep our subjective emotions aside and agree with this objective fact. In light of this fact, there is nothing absurd in believing that the Muslims did not rape their slave girls especially since they were forbidden from doing so. And even if some of the Muslims back then did rape their slave girls, this would only show that they committed a sinful act and not that the Prophet (peace be upon him) approved of such behavior. In conclusion, Islam does not permit the Muslim man to rape his slave girl.\nexmuslim82\nRe: Slave girls raped?\nby ringmaster \u00bb Fri Mar 18, 2011 7:53 pm\nGood grief....the prophet authorized and/or participated in rape himself.\nIt's in the Sahih muslim hadith.................\nHere is the source\nAbu Sirma said to Abu Sa'id al Khadri (Allah he pleased with him): 0 Abu Sa'id, did you hear Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) mentioning al-'azl ?He said: Yes, and added: We went out with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) on the expedition to the Bi'l-Mustaliq and took captive some excellent Arab women; and we desired them, for we were suffering from the absence of our wives, (but at the same time) we also desired ransom for them. So we decided to have sexual intercourse with them but by observing 'azl (Withdrawing the male sexual organ before emission of semen to avoid-conception). But we said: We are doing an act whereas Allah's Messenger is amongst us; why not ask him?So we asked Allah's Mes- senger (may peace be upon him), and he said: It does not matter if you do not do it, for every soul that is to be born up to the Day of Resurrection will be born.\n1.\tThe prophet was on an expedition. He and his men were attacking others.\n2.\tThe women were taken captive. The prophet and his men desired ransom for them. Therefore the prophet was engaged in human trafficking.\n3.\tThe prophet authorized his men to have sex with the captive women. In other words, he was authorizing rape.\nTherefore, Islamic law allows sex with captives because the prophet said it is OK.\nAbu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah her pleased with him) reported that at the Battle of Hanain Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's Messenger (may peace te upon him) seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists.Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that: \"And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (iv. 24)\" (i.e. they were lawful for them when their 'Idda period came to an end).\nThat\u2019s when porkchop allah revealed verse 4-24 to the prophet. That\u2019s when allah said sex with captives (i.e., rape) is OK.\nAbu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) sent a small army.The rest of the hadith is the same except this that he said: Except what your right hands possessout of them are lawful for you; and he did not mention \"when their 'idda period comes to an end\". This hadith has been reported on the authority of AbuSa'id (al-Khudri) (Allah be pleased with him) through another chain of transmitters and the words are: They took captives (women) on the day of Autas who had their husbands. They were afraid (to have sexual intercourse with them) when this verse was revealed: \"And women already married except those whom you right hands possess\" (iv. 24\u2026..i.e\u2026.Verse 4-24).\nby konga \u00bb Tue Mar 22, 2011 8:19 pm\nMay be we should first agree on a definition of rape.\nWikipedia: In criminal law, rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse, which is initiated by one or more persons against another person without that person's consent.\nEncyclopedia Britannica: act of sexual intercourse with an individual without his or her consent, through force or the threat of force.\nBefore getting into the refutation, can you please provide one verse of the Quran and or a Hadeeth that mentions rape? According to the Quran or Sunna (not those leaders or scholars who came after Muhammed's death), what is the correct Islamic procedure to be followed when a woman, whether slave or not, reports a rape? According to the Quran and Sunna, how can a rape be proved and what is the punishment/hadd for a raper?\nThere are those who argue that since Islam permits Muslim men to have sexual intercourse with their slave girls, this then means that they also have the right to rape them. This is absurd. The right to have sex with a woman does not necessarily imply that one has the right to rape her as well.\nNo, I agree that permitting someone to have sex with someone else is not the same as permitting someone to rape someone else. However, this distinction might be a little tricky when this \u201csomeone else\u201d is one's slave. Realistically speaking, how much power a slave-girl have to say \u201cno\u201d to her master when he decides that he wants to sleep with her? If they had the right to act according to their own will, they wouldn't have been called slaves!\nTo say that a Muslim man has the right to rape his slave girl is like saying that a man has the right to rape his wife; which is not true. Refer to this article.\nThe article mentioned here is published on http://www.answering-christianity.com/karim/no_marital_rape.htm. I have my takes on this article, but this article is not the subject of this refutation.\nThe first article referenced here was published on http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/72338 and the second one on http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?pagename=IslamOnline-English-Ask_Scholar/FatwaE/FatwaE&cid=1125407868541.\nThe link to the second article was broken but I read the first one and it provided no evidence that rape is forbidden in Islam. It basically said \u201cRape does not happen in Islam since Muslim women are not supposed to leave their homes\u201d, which is not the same as declaring rape as \u201charam\u201d!\nThese scholars lived hundreds of years after Mohammed. On what are they basing their judgement? What are the evidence in the Quran, Hadith and Sunnah that support their views?\nThis narration does not prove your point, on the contrary, it proves that women have no say in the matter of who they have sex with. Here are my takes on this narration:\n* Nowhere it is mention that the \u201cpretty bride\u201d was asked whether she wanted to sleep with Dharar or not. He asked ALL HIS OTHER COMPANIENS for THEIR permission, but nobody asked her.\n* \u201cThey invaded\u201d and \u201cthen captured\u201d, this, to me, sounds like using force to secure these women, among them the pretty bride. According to the definition above, a requirement of rape is force, which was present at the moment of capturing the woman.\n* There is no mention here why Dharar felt guilty. According to quranic verses and hadith narrations, having sex with slave girls is permitted, so what did he feel guilty about? It is of course possibility that he felt guilty because he forced her to have sex with him, but this is just an assumption since nowhere in the narration it said that.\n* Let us assume that he felt guilty because he had forced this pretty bride to have sex with him. Obviously, nobody of his companions objected to his action. Even the leader of his army said that it was OK and that Dharar didn't do anything wrong. The only reason they found out that it was prohibited is because Dharar insisted on writing to Omar and ask him. Meaning that: had Dharar settled for Khalid's judgment, the issue would not have been an issue at all.\n* Assuming the above point: since forcing the slave-girls to have sex was obviously accepted (the evidence is in the fact that neither his companions nor his leader saw anything wrong with what he did), Dharar could not have been the only one who practiced it. And yet, nowhere in the narration said that anyone else was subject to the punishment.\n* Assuming the above point: Omar was the third khalifa, meaning that he came to the leadership many years after Mohammed's death. The Muslims where involved in over 70 battles during Mohammed's life alone. Khalid was the leader in many of them. If this issue have not been raised before even though it was obviously commonly practiced, how many such incidents have occurred before this one then? (If it was not commonly practiced, Dharar's companions would have objected from the beginning. And if it had actually been raised before, Khalid would have known that it was forbidden).\n* Interesting that \u201cAllah didn't want to disgrace Dharar\u201d, yet obviously, Allah didn't mind disgracing \u201cthe pretty bride\u201d!\nAgain, that is an assumption, since nowhere in the narration it was explained why Dharar was feeling guilty. Maybe because he got her pregnant and couldn't marry her because he already had four wives?!\nProbably not, but that is not proved by this narration!\nHow do you figure that this hadeeth referes to slaves? The first thing that comes to my mind here is that it refers to one's family or, after reading the hadeeth in Arabic, the orphans who are under his guirdianship. Are you really suggesting that slaves are there so that their masters would take care of them? Salves' function, by definition, is to take care of their masters and obey them, not the other way around. If the master's are required to treat slaves kindly, isn't it kindness to set them free? Or are you suggesting that those who became slaves after being defeated by the Muslims LIKED becoming slaves?\nFor starters, this speech refers to the right of the man from his wife, and the right of the wife from her husband. Since the women mentioned are wives, they are free women, not slaves. And more importantly, it says specifically that the man should treat the women \u201cwell with regard to their clothing and food\u201d, and nothing else. This opens the door to a totally different discussion about women's right in Islam. Do you honestly believe that all you have to do to be perceived as kind to a woman is give her food and clothes? If that is all is required (as it is specified that way), a women is still considered well-treated when she is repeatedly raped as long as her raper provides her with food and clothes. And again, this only applied to \u201cfree\u201d women. There is no mention of slaves in this speech.\nThe Prophet (peace be upon him) said that our slaves are like our siblings.\nAgain, this hadeeth specifies that well-treatment is achieved by providing food and clothes. Yes, it does say that your slave is like your brother, but then it specifies that the way you treat your brother well is by providing him with food and clothes like yours (and that's it). Not asking the slaves to do things \u201cbeyond their capacity\u201d does not necessarily mean \"treat them well\". For example, a womans body maybe physically capable of being raped every now and then, so it's not really beyond her capacity, but we all know that it is still not OK.\nWho would rape his own sister?\nBelieve me, it happens, even among Muslims!\nObviously, the problem here is that he hit her on the face. Muqarrin made a point not because the man hit his slave, but because he hit her on the face. Meaning that if he had hit her somewhere else on her body, there would not have been a problem.\nOk. I admit that you have made a point here... finally!.\nYou would think so, wouldn't you?!\nIn Saheeh Muslim, hadeeth 135-2619, Mohammed said \u201cA woman ended up in hell because of a cat. She tied the cat up until she [the cat] starved to death\u201d. So obviously Mohammed tells us that we should not hurt a cat. So if Mohammed forbade hurting a cat, then it should be unthinkable that he would have permitted killing people. Yet, he himself and many many Muslims killed people very often!\nNo. He prohibited beating slaves heavily. He specified that well treatment is equivalent to providing food and clothes only\nNo, you did not prove that Islam considers rape to cause harm and is a form of oppression. Actually, you did not prove that Islam considers rape a punishable crime.\nNo, the critics are not saying that Mohammed made an exception to the general prohibition. The critics are saying that he did not prohibit it at all, and the burden of proof is upon you by showing examples from the Quran and hadeeth\nWe can come up with examples of Muslims raping women. Safiyyeh, who you mention bellow, is the first one (we'll get to her in a moment).\nNice to see a Muslim not denying \"their Muslim captors who just killed their family members\".\nNot just that. It shows that the women's consent was not required. The women were not even asked.\nThus we see from two non-Muslim authors that slave girls back in the past would consent to having sex with their captors. So if we put aside our 21st century mindset and look at history objectively, there is nothing wrong with saying that slave girls back then consented to having sex with their capturs.\nThis is ridiculous. For starter, let us assume that they did dress nicely to attract their captures in case of defeat (wich I doubt, but I would have to read the source first before I utter an opinion), these are the women who followed their fathers and husbands to war. The women the Muslims took were mostly draged from their homes. Many of them were the \u201croyalty\u201d of their tribes. Being captured and turned into slaves was a huge shame. There is no way that the women who held the pride of their tribes would dress in a way to attract their captures \u201cin case of defeat\u201d. Defeat was the source of shame.\nActually, the only proof I want to see is that these women were supposed to be asked for their consent. Merely ASSUMING that they consented because of some historical observations of that time is not enough. This is about God's orders for all time to come, not a history lesson.\nIf the critic says that not all of the slave girls felt this way and there were bound to be some who didn't want to have sex, I would agree with him. However, how does this prove that the Muslims raped their slave girls?\nNone of what you said proves the opposite either!\nHow does the critic know whether the Muslim back then actually raped the slave girl who was unwilling to have sex with him?\nHow do you know that they didn't?\nIsn't it possible that if he saw her unwilling he would have sold to her to another Muslim at a cheaper price? Or he would have purchased another slave girl who was willing to have sex with him? Or he would have waited for her to consent, for by that time he would have treated her very nicely and convinced her that Islam is true and that it was her tribe's fault for starting the battle, etc. Yes these things are possible.\nThey are possible (though the last one is very unlikely). However, you do not have proof for any of it. All you have is a \u201cmaybe\u201d.\nHow does the critic know that none of these things happened?\nHow do you know that they did? Do you have any references?\nWhat is his proof that the Muslims raped their slave girls?\nTheir actions otherwise. They attacked people without warning, took them by surprise, took their property and possessions, killed their men and enslaved their women and children. What makes you think they stopped at raping the women?\nDoes it matter how many? Isn't it enough with one?\nNowhere it is mentioned that they didn't. Just like nowhere it is mentioned that their consent was required.\nWhen all those who didn't praise Islam had their heads cut off, all you have left is \u201creading between the lines\u201d, which is actually not that hard to figure out in this case!\nWhere can you show us that he didn't approve of such behavior? Let's assume that he didn't approve, why didn't he express that? Why no one was punished? Let's assume that Muslims raped their captives behind the \u201cprophet's\u201d back. Did they do it behind God's back too? Why didn't God inform his prophet and tell him that it was forbidden?\nPoor Muslim men who could only capture married women! But no worries.. Allah can fix that!\nAgain, nowhere it's said that the women were asked whether they wanted to have sex with their captures or not. The only proof I want to see is that the women's consent was required in order for the Muslim men to have sex with them. But time and again, we see evidence that Islam treats women as if they don't matter. Only property of men.\nAlthough this is not directly our discussion, I would like to point to the heart of the issue for the Muslims here. Muslims had problem because the women's husbands were polytheists. They had no problem with the women themselves even though they also were polytheists. They also didn't have problem with the fact that they were married. Another indication that women have no value in Islam?\nThus, we see that in the eyes of Islam this marriage becomes invalid (some opinions like that of the Hanafi school state other conditions required for the annulment to occur). The critic would definitely argue back stating \"what gives your religion the right?\" but that is not the point of discussion. This is an external critique of Islam and the basis for this discussion really isn't about this topic in particular but about whether Islam really is true and whether this is God's decree.\nI thought this discussion was to examen whether Muslims were allowed to raped their slave-girls!\nTo debate the specifics is just useless. The Muslim sees this decree to be internally consistent and submits to God's law that states that action x results in a divorce.\nThis is really not our topic here!\nFirst of all, how did Al Shafi'i motivate this prohibition? What are the verses in the Quran or the hadeeth that support his fatwa?\nIn addition to that, when a slave-girl becomes Muslim, she is prohibited from having sex with someone other than her husband, otherwise she risks punishment either by 100 lashes or by stoning. So how is she supposed to have sex with her master without her being married to him?\nAgain, which Quran verse or hadeeth supports this view?\nWe see cases in the life of the Prophet (peace be upon him) where slave girls willingly prefer to accept Islam over returning to their tribe due to recognizing the truth of Islam and injustice of their own tribe for provoking the Muslims to war. The most famous case being that of Safiyyah, one of the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Furthermore, when analyzing the particular story mentioned in the hadith we see that no rape could have reasonably taken place.\nHere comes the mention of Safiyyah. First of all, Safiyyeh, like most of the captured women, had no tribe left to go back to. Safiyyah had to chose between becoming one of Mohammed's wives or becoming a slave to one of his men. This is her story according to Bukhari, hadeeth nr 371 (among other hadeeths):\n---After the Muslims took Khaiber by surprise and force, they gathered the women. A man named Dihieh came to Mohammed and asked him to give him a slave-girl and Mohammed answered him \u201cgo take one\u201d, so he took Safiyyeh. Some people then told Mohammed \u201cyou gave him Safiyyah, the lady of Quraida and Nadeer? She suites no one but you\u201c and he said \u201cbring her to me\u201d. They brought her to him and he looked at her, then he told Dihieh to go get himself another slave-girl. He then \u201cset Safiyyah free\u201d and married her. Her dowry was her freedom.---\nDoes this sound like a willing conversion to Islam? What could she have done? As a matter of fact, she didn't even CHOSE to marry \u201cthe prophet\u201d, she wasn't even asked. There are at least 4 different narrations of this story in Bukhari alone and in none of them Safiyyah was asked if she actually wanted to marry Mohammed! Even more, according to the biography of Mohammed written by Ibn Hisham (who based it on the biography written by Ishaq) and according to the biogrophy witten by Haikel, Mohammed had killed Safiyyah's husband in that very raid (over money, but that's not our discussion now) and then \u201cmarried her\u201d and consummated the marriage (with a guard standing outside his tent all night just in case she would think of avenging her family) the same night that narration above took place. Well, she was Jewish, which means that it is lawful that she gets married to a Muslim man. She was also married and had just become a window. According to Islam, the widow's Idda (waiting period before getting re-married) is 3-4 months, which Safiyyah obviously was not granted. That of course beside the fact that the normal thing for her to do now is morn for her dead husband, specially with her status as the first lady of her tribe.\nPlease explain how this was not a rape performed by Mohammed himself?!\nOk. That was the Awtas. How about the other tribes who Mohammed and his men attacked in their homes? One example is Khaiber. In Saheeh Bukhari, hadeeth 371 (among others) stated clearly that the Muslims surprised Khaiber in the early morning and attacked them while they were going to their work. In Ibn Hisham biography and Haikel's biography, it was clearly stated that Mohammed took Taifs's land and made the people of Taif work it in exchange of half their products. So Mohammed was indeed interested in invading others' lands and taking their women.\nOr he just hoped that he could pressure more people to submit to him this way?\nHow merciful indeed! I wonder where this \u201cmercy\u201d had been when he took these people by surprise, killed their men, captured their women and confiscated their property just because he could! No, saying that they were attacked because they were Jews who plotted against Mohammed is not an accepted excuse because it's a completely baseless accusation and I challenge you to produce solid evidence that they actually did plot against Mohammed.\nBut again, that's not really our subject. Our subject is whether Muslims raped their slave-girls or not!\nHow did you arrive to this conclusion from the above? They attacked Taif and took their women. The men of Taif were fighting the Muslims, so why did the Muslims took the innocent women? Because it was the custom that the winning party takes the women of the losing party? Well, you don't become merciful by doing what everyone else does, you become merciful by doing what everyone else does not do, otherwise your actions are not outstanding in any way! If Mohammed and the Muslims were really merciful human beings, they would not have attacked Taif in the first place. And if they would attack, they would have left the women and children morn in peace in their homes. Even if the Muslims felt they were forced to attack, no one could possibly have forced them to take the women!\nNo, you did not provide evidence for that from the Quran, Hadeeth or Sunnah\nThe women were taken from their homes and distributed between the Muslims by force. Doesn't that classify as ill treatment?\n\u201cMight\u201d is not an argument. \u201cThe Muslims might have returned them back to their tribe before they had the chance to\u201d? Did you actually read your own words? First of all, you don't have evidence that supports your \u201cmight\u201d theory. You say they might have been returned before they engaged in sexual activity and I say they might have been returned after they engaged in sexual activity. Why should anyone take any of our words against the other without backing them with evidence.\nLet's assume that the captives were returned before they had the chance to have sexual activity (these were your own words), this only means that the only reason the Muslim men did not engage in sexual activity with these captives is because they didn't have the chance, they didn't have the time, not because they were \u201cnice people\u201d. Besides, these women were returned to their tribes, what about the thousands of other women captured after other battles and raids and were not returned?\nThe slave-girls weren't even asked! Meaning that there consent was not required. If their consent was not obtained then it is rape according to the definitions.\nMohammed himself raped Safiyyah, so that's not an excuse. Even if we assume that he didn't approve, where are the evidence indicating that?\nThis contradicts the hadeeth YOU mentioned above:\nAccording to this hadeeth, there is no point of azl because if God wanted someone to be born, he/she will get born. This is the rule and is regardless of the woman being slave or free. So whether the man and his wife intended to practice azl or not, this has no effect on her becoming pregnant if God willed her to.\nA question though, what if he got his slave-girl pregnant and he already had four wives? What if he already have children with all his four wives or if all his four wives got pregnant around the same time he got the slave-girl pregnant? Theoretically, this could happen. Which wife then should he divorce so that he could marry the pregnant salve-girl?\nAgain, where is the rape?\nWhat's azl got to do with rape? One can practice both!\nEven if Imam Malik said that you can rape her (which he didn't), he is not my final authority, the Prophet (peace be upon him) is.\nThen why are you quoting him?!\nSo what evidence did Imam Maalik use then from the Qur'an and Sunnah to justify his statement that one can rape his slave girl (which he didn't say, it's only for the sake of argument)?\nWhat specific evidence did Imam Maalik use from the Quran and Sunnah to state that rape is not permitted in Islam?\nNow is the critic seriously trying to argue that Islam would permit a man to physically abuse his children if they didn't give him his right of respect?\nYes. In Dawood's hadeeth collection we can read that Mohammed said \u201cOrder your children to pray at the age of seven and beat them if they do not do so by the age of ten\u201d. Sure it is because the children are neglecting \u201cGod's rights\u201d, but the point is that he permitted the parents to hit their children, aka. physically abuse them.\nIs he also trying to say that he can physically abuse and harm his sister if she were to try and steal some of his inheritance money?\nIf his sister tries stealing his inheritance money, he is entitled to cut off her hands \u2013 Quran 5:38. Don't you consider this as physical abuse and harm?\nFurthermore, verse 4:34 in the Quran states clearly that a man is permitted to beat his wife if she does not obey him (which is his right). Sure there are steps that should be taken before that, but once these steps are taken, he's free to beat her. Since the \u201cfunction\u201d of a slave-girl is closer to the function of a wife (they both have to obey him and he's allowed to sleep with both of them), she should be compared with the disobeying wife, not with the thief sister. So if he's is allowed to beat his wife, the free woman, for disobeying him, why wouldn't he be allowed to beat his slave-girl for disobeying him? Since the verse does not specify the reason why a woman should be beaten, why isn't he allowed to beat her if she disobeyed him by refusing to have sex with him? You would probably say that a woman is not entitled to obey her husband if he orders her to do something against God's command. Neither sleeping with one's wife nor slave-girl is against God's command, so she is required to obey him in this case.\nInteresting point! So which rights entitles one to use force to get them, and which rights that don't? How do you decide?\nActually, I find your arguments are laughable. Why would a man be allowd to obtain his right of obedience from his wife by beating her but not his right of a visit from his brother when sick by breaking his brother's leg?\nWe are not really talking about the Bible and Christianity now, are we?\nMuslims claim that women had no rights, whatsoever, before Islam. They claim that female infants used to be berried alive and that women did not use to inherit anything. On the contrary, they used to be inherited themselves as any object in the house. They claim that Islam gave women their rights and dignity.\nSince women had no rights before Islam and were treated like any other object in the house, it would be natural that early Msulims laughed at the idea that the women's consent is required in order for a man to engage in sexual activities with them. If Allah really wanted to show that women are worth something, wouldn't the first thing he would have done be to emphasize the importance of the woman's consent before engaging in sexual activities with her? But as it is, nowhere in the Quran, Hadeeth or Sunnah it is mentioned that a woman, any woman, whether slave of free, should be asked whether she wanted to engage in a sexual activity. How is it not considered rape when their consent is not even required?\nby ringmaster \u00bb Mon Jun 03, 2013 4:44 pm\nkonga wrote: May be we should first agree on a definition of rape.\nLong-winded semantics like that are pointless. If you get into a debate over the \u201cdefinition\u201d, it amounts to nothing more than a circuitous argument to justify the filth in the koran.\nThe issue is very simple. If a woman is being held captive, mutual consent in a sexual relationship is automatically non-existent. Verse 4-24 says that a man can have sex with captives. Therefore the koran allows rape.\nThe woman (or the man) can say there is consent, but there isn\u2019t really. If a man has sex with a woman held captive, it is rape, pure and simple.",

Or are they constrained by their very nature? I submit that there are two things about them that constrain their freedom: Fear and the Herd.\nFirst, let\u2019s define terms. Freedom in common parlance is lack of any restriction, the ability to do what one wants, whenever one wants. Yet, this common notion of freedom is problematic. It leads to trouble. I submit that true freedom is not freedom from restriction, but freedom for a goal or purpose. And that purpose is love.\nFirst, horses have always been prey animals. They are used to running, rearing, stomping, doing anything they can to escape a predator who wants to make a tasty meal out of them. This is one of the reasons why one has to be mindful around horses. They are so afraid of potential adversaries that they will lash out at anything, or anyone, regardless of motive. They also have a lot of blind spots, places around their bodies where they can\u2019t see what\u2019s coming.\nYet, this is not so for us. \u201cPerfect love drives out fear.\u201d (1 John 4:18) When fear takes over in our lives, it has the potential for making us act in the same way: defensive, isolated, with the potential to lash out at an adversary, real or imagined. Fear restricts us from acting freely out of love. Freedom for love gives us all a goal, a direction in life. As humans, we are endowed with intellect, will and memory. We are self-aware, aware of our own existence. This gives us an advantage. This is how we can learn to master the horse rather than let the horse master us. This is what gives humanity distinctiveness, and a dignity unparalleled among all God\u2019s creatures.\nThat said, there is something (among many things) we have in common with horses: Community. Horses are social beings. they live in the context of a community, called a herd, with leaders and followers, and each one has its place in the herd. One horse\u2019s actions and decisions affect the rest. If the leader decides to roam elsewhere to find food, then the rest follow.\nJust as horses are herd animals, so we are most fully ourselves when we realize that we are meant to live in community. Each person\u2019s individual actions affect those around him. Whether we realize it or not, we cannot live isolated from the rest of humanity. We are interdependent on one another.\nBut, this also affects what we are able to do. Living as part of a community means that one cannot simply do whatever he wants, regardless of how it will affect anyone else. That\u2019s called license, and it has the potential for stripping us of our dignity.\nBut this life in community does not hinder our freedom, properly understood. It can only enhance it, because it gives us a purpose, a goal, a direction. It gives us the environment to learn to perfect those essential habits of virtue.\nAnd virtue sets the stage for authentic love, willing the good of another for another. And love perfects freedom.",

This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet- and exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting results are proven, noticeable, and lasting, so you\u2019ll look and feel great from every angle. Freeze away fat? It comes down to science. Fat cells freeze at higher temperatures than surrounding tissues. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), and then die. Over time, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you. You can reshape your body! We will develop a customized CoolSculpting treatment plan that addresses your problem areas. Additional sessions may further enhance your results. Your individualized treatment plan will be tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget. It\u2019s easy to sit back, relax and say goodbye to stubborn fat. After we select the area(s) to be treated, the device is positioned on your body and controlled cooling is applied. During your procedure, you may choose to read, check email, or even take a nap.\nThe CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is completely non-surgical\nYou can typically return to work and normal activities immediately. You will like what you see. In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they\u2019re gone for good. Are you ready to love every view of you? The sooner you set up your consultation, the sooner you\u2019ll see results in the mirror\u2014long-term results in those areas that have resisted all efforts through diet and exercise. Contact us today to find out if the CoolSculpting fat freezing procedure is right for you. Results and patient experience may vary.\nQUESTION: Am I a good candidate? ANSWER: Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they\u2019d like to get rid of. The CoolSculpting fat reduction procedure is specifically designed for those who have unwanted fat that resists diet and exercise. Unlike gastric bypass surgery, the CoolSculpting procedure is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese. It is, however a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Request a one-on-one consultation with us to determine if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you. <pQUESTION: How much does the CoolSculpting procedure cost? ANSWER: The price for CoolSculpting procedures varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of sessions needed, and your ultimate goals. We will help create a customized treatment plan, in person, that\u2019s tailored to your body, your goals, and your budget. QUESTION: How long is each session? How many sessions will I need? ANSWER: We will help you create an individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals. The length of your CoolSculpting session will vary depending on the number of areas being treated during one visit. We may schedule additional sessions in order to meet your goals. QUESTION: Where does the fat go? Are the results permanent? ANSWER: Once the treated fat cells are crystallized (frozen), your body processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they\u2019re gone for good. QUESTION: What does it feel like? ANSWER: As the cooling begins during the first few minutes, you will feel pressure and intense cold. This soon dissipates. Many people read, watch videos, work on their laptop, or even take a nap during their treatment. QUESTION: Is the CoolSculpting procedure safe? ANSWER: The CoolSculpting procedure is FDA-cleared for the flank (love handles), abdomen, and thigh. With over one million CoolSculpting treatments performed worldwide, it is proven to be a safe and effective treatment for non-surgical fat reduction. QUESTION: Are there any side effects? ANSWER: During the procedure you may experience deep pulling, tugging, pinching, numbness or discomfort. Following the procedure, typical side effects include temporary numbness, redness, swelling, bruising, firmness, tingling, stinging and pain. Rare side effects may also occur. The CoolSculpting procedure is not for everyone. You should not have the CoolSculpting procedure if you suffer from cryoglobulinemia or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. The CoolSculpting procedure is not a treatment for obesity. As with any medical procedure, ask us if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you. QUESTION: Can I return to normal activities after my treatment? ANSWER: Yes, you can. The CoolSculpting procedure is completely non-surgical, so typically you can return to normal activities immediately. Often times, patients return to work after their CoolSculpting session is over. QUESTION: When will I see results? ANSWER: You may start to see changes as quickly as three weeks after your treatment, and will experience the most dramatic results after two months. But your body will still flush out fat cells and continues doing so for up to four to six months after treatment. QUESTION: Do I need to take special supplements or follow a strict diet and exercise program? ANSWER: No supplements or pills are required and you do not have to adopt new diet and exercise habits. Many patients feel more motivated to take care of themselves after their CoolSculpting treatment. It is as if they get a second lease on their body and want to start anew again by taking even better care of themselves. QUESTION: What happens if I gain weight down the road? ANSWER: Many people, after seeing the results from their CoolSculpting procedure, take even better care of themselves. However, if you do gain weight, you may gain it evenly all over your body, not just in the treated areas.1\nSCHEDULE A COOLSCULPTING CONSULTATION!\nMichelle Garcia-Reyes PA-Cis the founder of FUN.\"I love the transformations.

The latest was on Friday, Dec. 9 at 8:06 p.m., when a student notified security that he discovered multiple swastikas along with the words \u201cGermany\u201d and \u201cHeil Hitler,\u201d drawn with a black marker inside the E cluster Buildings first floor men\u2019s bathroom. That incident comes just two days after a security officer discovered three swastikas drawn on the B cluster building stair handrail and on the wall. The swastikas were approximately eight-inches long and drawn in black ink.\nPolice say three other bias incidents occurred at the college in the month of October. Three swastikas were drawn in green marker inside the E cluster building second floor men\u2019s bathroom on Oct. 15, at 8:44 a.m. On Oct. 28, the NCC cleaning staff discovered two swastikas and an anti-Semitic comment on the wall of the men\u2019s bathroom in the D cluster building at 9:52 p.m. The other incident occurred on Oct. 29 at 12:40 p.m. when security discovered multiple swastikas drawn in blue marker on the walls and urinals of both men\u2019s rooms on the first and second floor of the E building.\n\u201cNassau Community College is an institution which fosters a safe environment for all, and prizes equality and respect for all of its students, faculty, staff and visitors. We have zero tolerance for any and all kinds of hate speech,\u201d said NCC President Dr. W. Hubert Keen in a statement. \u201cThe discovery of swastikas on our large open campus is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. While it is unclear whether the graffiti crime was committed by trespassers or not, the institution will take all steps necessary to ensure that the perpetrators are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and that Nassau Community College remains a safe haven for all students, faculty, staff and visitors.\u201d\nSince October, swastikas have also been found drawn in Mineola and Stewart Manor, as well as in the bathroom of a Port Washington high school. Mindy Perlmutter, executive director of the Jewish Community Relations Council, said the organization is concerned about these recent incidents.\n\u201cIt is disturbing to see these images. It invokes fear within the community and that is what those people want,\u201d Perlmutter said. \u201cThere are a variety of factors that contribute to these crimes from economics, the status of people in the community, people fearful of others gaining power, general uneasiness. When we find this, people often look to scapegoats....[these] hateful messages [and] swastikas painted on buildings produce a tremendous amount of fear in the community.\u201d\nDetectives request that anyone with information regarding these crimes to contact the Nassau County Crime Stoppers at 800-244-8477.

        "title": "Five Costly Disasters Your Auto Insurance May Not Cover",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Articles \u00bb Five Costly Disasters Your Auto Insurance May Not Cover\nDo you know which disasters are covered by your car insurance and which are not covered? Accidents and other automotive disasters happen when you least expect them, often leaving you to wonder how you could have better prepared. While there is no way to predict the future, you can be better prepared to face it. Find out which types of disasters are usually covered by car insurance versus those that aren\u2019t covered. Then, carefully review your car insurance policy to be certain you know the particulars of your own coverage.\nFBI statistics show that on average more than 2,000 motor vehicles are stolen every day in the United States. So what happens if your covered vehicle is stolen? Most comprehensive auto insurance compensates drivers when their vehicles are stolen. What isn\u2019t covered, however, is your personal property inside your car that isn\u2019t specific to the use of the vehicle. CD players and radios will most likely be covered, while other personal items are not.\nHurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes and other natural disasters cause millions of dollars in property damage each year. Is your car protected if you have auto insurance? It depends. Just having liability insurance won\u2019t help you in the case of natural disasters. On the other hand, comprehensive coverage might provide some coverage. Check your policy carefully to see which natural disasters are covered on your policy. You may have to purchase additional coverage or pay a higher premium if you live in an area that is high-risk for tornadoes or earthquakes, for example.\nComprehensive coverage isn\u2019t mandatory everywhere and many drivers choose to go without it, but unless you carry comprehensive coverage, your car isn\u2019t covered in the event of run-ins with Mother Nature. If a tree limb falls on your car or you hit a deer on the road, you\u2019ll need comprehensive coverage to pay for the damages. Even if you do have comprehensive though, that doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re covered for all acts of nature. Be sure to read your policy carefully so you know what precisely is covered and what is not covered.\nAccidents In A Car You Don\u2019t Own\nAre you covered in the event of an accident when you\u2019re driving someone else\u2019s car or a rental car? If you aren\u2019t 100 percent sure, check your policy. Many standard auto insurance policies don\u2019t cover the policyholder when driving car that\u2019s not on the policy. So if you get in an accident in a car not covered under the policy, you could be left footing the bill. You could leave yourself open to being sued personally by the other people as well. Pay for additional coverage if you need it and don\u2019t just assume that you already have it.\nAccidents When Someone Else Is Driving\nWhile in most states collision and comprehensive coverage protect the vehicle regardless of driver, coverage can vary depending on a few factors. Many policies cover you and family members who live with you or are listed on your policy under the omnibus clause. When you give someone else permission to drive your car that \u201cpermissive driver\u201d is then primarily covered by your insurance too. What this means is that if that driver gets into an accident, your insurance will have to cover most of the damages. If your permissive driver and the other driver involved in an accident are both uninsured, you could get stuck being responsible for all of the costs.",

        "raw_content": "George Soros: Founder and Chairman of the Open Society Foundations\nGeorge Soros is one of the greatest United States-based billionaire investors. The reason why he is denoted as the greatest is that he has achieved what other billionaires have never achieved in the past. George Soros is worth more than $24 billion. For this reason, George Soros has donated more than half of his money to the poor through the numerous philanthropic activities in and out of the United States. George Soros also decided to embark on massive philanthropy when he decided that he had enough money to carry on the day. For this reason, his philanthropic efforts have been realized in more than 10 countries in the world. George Soros is also considered as one of the most popular philanthropists because the Open Society Foundations is involved in massive giving to the less fortunate people living in and out of the United States. His ambitions are fulfilled with the Open Society Foundations and what George Soros knows.\nIn the recent past, we have seen George Soros more involved in politics than in the past. We might be wondering about his achievements for the sake of a better world. However, George Soros has always looked forward to a country whose rule is administered in democracy. The rule of law is respected by both the high-class society and the low-class societies in a world-class country like the United States. His involvement in politics goes beyond the United States to the United Kingdom. He has always corrected the harsh rule of inaccurate statements issued by the country leaders all over the world. This is because he is looking forward to assimilating better business values in a manner that will not be capacitated in the business world.\nWe have also seen George Soros invoke a political fundraising that was geared towards solving the financial problems the political funds in the country invoked for better business in the industry. If you are one of the few people who is achieving better business with companies under the democratic rule, George Soros has given more than $27 million to help Hilary Clinton and other Democratic candidates in the forthcoming general elections in the United States. For the people who were around George Soros, they said that his involvement in politics was growing at the fastest rates possible and read full article.\nGeorge Soros has also been involved in politics for as long as he has lived in a just country like the United States. For all his life, George Soros has never appreciated the rule administered by the political environment in the United States until he first set his foot on the land in New York. George Soros came from a country where business was not done commonly. If you are among the people who work for better business values, you cannot achieve much if you are under this rule and Follow his Twitter.com.\nMore Visit: https://www.georgesoros.com/the-life-of-george-soros/\nby gofree October 10, 2017 0 comments Business, FInance",

Although written by lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong just after the release of their 1994 hit album Dookie, the song was not released until their 3rd major-label album Nimrod. in 1997. \"Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)\" is a very mellow, contemplative acoustic song, which was a vast change from the band's well-known punk sound. However, the song title does reflect some of the edge that one can expect from this band. Band member Mike Dirnt went on to state that the release of this song was probably the \"most punk\" thing they could have done. The song is more commonly promoted on the radio as \"Time of Your Life\", and it became a Billboard chart-topper and an international hit. In fact, it was the only song from nimrod. that was a crossover success when released in single form.\nRetrieved from \"http://greenday.wikia.com/wiki/Good_Riddance_(Time_of_Your_Life)?oldid=5437\"",

        "raw_content": "Bulbs ban to save 300 megawatts per month\nZimbabwe is set to save over 300 megawatts of power monthly following government\u2019s ban of the manufacturing and selling of high energy consuming bulbs or lighting products.\nIn a bid to address the country\u2019s worsening power shortages, the government banned incandescent bulbs on 1 May this year under Statutory Instrument 21 of 2017.\nSpeaking at a energy stakeholders meeting that was held in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority (ZERA ) engineer, Tanda Chisi , said his organisation has targeted the replacement of 5,5 million incandescent bulbs with Light Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs which will save the country 300 MW of power every month.\n\u201cLED bulbs use 90 percent less energy and last more than six times longer than ordinary filament lamps while a conventional bulb uses an average of 130 KWh at $13 per year. A LED bulb requires only 15 KWh at $1, 50 annually. The compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) is an energy saver using 24 KWh at $2, 40 per year\u201d said Engineer Chisi.\nHe said incandescent lamps use 10 times more energy than the equivalent LED lamps for the same light output.\nFollowing the ban, Engineer Chisi said, ZERA will with facilitate the arrest of companies and individuals found selling or manufacturing bulbs and other lighting products that consume too much electricity.\nIn terms of the new statutory instrument, anyone found using or distributing incandescent bulbs or ordinary filament lamps faces imprisonment of up to one year or a fine of up to $5,000.\nChisi said ZERA in conjunction with other stakeholders such as the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA), and the police, would soon embark on countrywide inspections of shops and confiscate any inefficient lighting products and arrest offenders.\nThe Director of Energy, Conservation and Renewable Energy in the Ministry of Energy and Power Development, Dr Sosten Ziubu, said the ban is aimed at enhancing Zimbabwe\u2019s energy efficiency.\n\u201cThis regulation is meant to save electricity which will be channelled to other productive sectors of the economy and reduce consumer electricity bills .Moreover, this measure will contribute to foreign currency savings as the country is constantly importing power from South Africa and Mozambique especially during peak hours when the electricity prices are high as well,\u201d he said.\nZimbabwe currently generates about 1, 000 megawatts of electricity while demand is around 1,600 megawatts. South Africa\u2019s state \u2013run electricity company, Eskom has threatened to switch off the country because of outstanding arrears which amount to $603 million.",

        "title": "Highlights of Our Trip - Marsha and Harry's",
        "raw_content": "We did a lot of things over the 56 days we were away. People ask us what were the best things you did. So here goes (in no particular order):\nOur 13 day stay in New Orleans LA\nBy staying for such a long time, we got something we rarely get: we got to know our way around a town, to find some of the wonderful, but not so often seen places -- and amazingly enough, a great desire to go back to New Orleans to see all of the things we didn't see this time. Our time in New Orleans was made even better by meeting and getting to know Karen Dolan, the owner of the AirBnB accommodations where we stayed. It's rare that we feel that our accommodations are one of the highlights of a trip. Karen's warm hospitality was unique and appreciated.\nThe small entertainment venues on the Cruise\nOf all of the entertainment events available on our Cruise, we liked two smaller activities the best: Slam Allen Band at the Fat Cats Jazz and Blues Club and a group of three competitive piano players known as Howl at the Moon.\nSlam Allen Band at the Fat Cats Jazz and Blues Club\nThis appears to be a franchise that Norwegian Cruise Lines had a version on board the ship.\nOutside the Barnes Foundation Museum\nThe Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia PA\nThe Barnes Foundation is unlike any other art museum we have seen in the way Albert Barnes chose to display his huge collection of Impressionist paintings. This new museum in effect showcases how the pictures were displayed in the old Barnes Museum in Marion, PA because the galleries in the new museum are reproductions of the rooms in the old museum.\nWe found this visit stimulating for several reasons: First, the shear number of priceless masterpieces in one museum is impressive -- verging on overwhelming. Second, is the unusual arrangement of the art in the museum. We still are not sure whether Barnes' ideas about showing art are valid, but this museum is certainly a great example of what Barnes had in mind. This museum, as well as the Philadelphia Museum of Art is worth a trip to Philadelphia.\nUnpretentious Kava Island Eats\nKaya Island Eats, Key West FL\nJust outside of Key West, we discovered a great restaurant: Kaya Island Eats. With all of the restaurants in Key West, we hadn't found one that seemed special. We searched TripAdvisor for something that fit this bill. Although we weren't sure, we took a chance and drove 11 miles back towards Miami from Key West) for a restaurant that seemed different. Boy was it! Here is Marsha's TripAdvisor review. We liked it so much that we went back for lunch on our way back to Miami.\nA \"Seafood Boil\" like no other\nThe Commander's Palace,\nSpeaking of restaurants, in New Orleans we were blown away by the food, the presentation and the service at Commander's Palace. This was one of the unforgettable restaurants we ate at in New Orleans. Expensive. Even for the Saturday afternoon Jazz Brunch. But everything was perfect. For example, each time we were served a course, two waiters arrived at the same time and put our plates down at the exact same time. We saw this happen for much larger parties.\nElizabeth's,\nAnother great New Orleans restaurant was 2 1/2 blocks away from where we were staying: Elizabeth's. Don't be fooled by its rather shabby exterior or the somewhat dilapidated neighborhood: this is an excellent restaurant in a wonderful neighborhood. We went here several times, once for brunch. Marsha's choice that way was a corn bread waffle topped with a sweet potato / duck hash, with a dollip of hot pepper jelly. Oh, and did I mention the strips of praline-bacon we had as a side order?\nOne of Four Buildings of the WWII Museum\nThe World War II Museum, New Orleans LA\nThe World War II Museum is a national treasure. If you are like me (Harry), you have seen a lot of films and read a lot of stories about World War II, but never integrated it all together into a complete view of that era. Visiting this museum was time in my 65 years that I managed in 1 1/2 days to understand the full picture of World War II. There are several buildings that make up the museum. In the main building, they divide the War into two parts, the Pacific War and the European War. For each part, they have two section: events that lead up to the War, and campaigns of the War. This organization was the first time that all of the various diverse pieces of WWII history have come together for me.\nDry Tortugas National Park,\nOne of our extravagances was to take a day trip on a boat to Dry Tortugas National Park, off the coast of Florida at Key West. We've seen the picture to the left and often dreamed about traveling to such an exotic looking place. Well, although our view of it from sea level wasn't quite as spectacular as this, never the less, it is a very interesting trip.\nWalter Anderson Museum, Ocean Springs MS\nThe Walter Anderson Museum was a completely new introduction to an artist we did not know about before this visit. When we first saw prints of Anderson's work we were not entirely convinced of his genius. Once we viewed the original work we were instantaneous fans. The fact that Walter was not entirely sane adds just the right touch of quirkiness to his work.\nDuncan Phillips was an heir to the Pittsburgh Steel fortune. He founded the Phillips Collection in memory of his father and brother. The museum is a good place to look at art. You feel comfortable. Many rooms have actual chairs, not benches, where you can comfortably sit and enjoy the scene. The reason we went to the Phillips in the first place was to see Renoir\u2019s Luncheon of the Boating Party. It did not disappoint. There were many other wonderful individual paintings as well as collections (four Mark Rothko displayed in a room that Rothko helped design.\nLaura Plantation House\nLaura Plantation, Vacherie LA\nThe 1805 house at the Laura Plantation in Vacherie, LA was unlike our image of a Plantation House. Not white but painted yellow and blue and red and even some green. The Plantation was owned and operated by generations of strong Creole women the last of whom was the namesake Laura.\nWe learned a lot about Creole culture and improved our knowledge of what Plantations were all about, in addition to being made economically viable by horrible slavery. This new understanding doesn't change our disgust when thinking about slavery, but fills in some missing knowledge. Many people advised us that if we were going to see just one Plantation to go see Laura. We did see others, and would agree with this advice. This place is a gem.\nThe original slave quarters of Evergreen Plantation\nEvergreen Plantation, Edgard LA\nAfter visiting the Laura Plantation, we we tried to see The Evergreen Plantation but it was closing. The tour guide invited us to come back when she was next going to be guiding. This turned out to be a good thing, because she brought to the tour a magic ingredient: She was a member (by marriage) of the original family that owned the plantation. Her stories about the family, including behavior traits of tenacity that she sees in her husband and children were spellbinding. We were sitting on the edges of our seats listening to her. Evergreen is special because it has 37 buildings that are on the Register of Historic Places and is a National Historic Landmark. One other thing we found out about Evergreen is that the film Django Unchained was filmed there.\nFrontier Culture Museum, Staunton VA\nWe had been to the Frontier Culture Museum five years ago. It was raining when we were there so a return visit was in order. The premise of the museum is to show the cultures of people who came to the Shenandoah Valley by showing original farm buildings from four foreign countries (Ireland, England, Germany and Africa) from which they came and how the buildings and artifacts of the immigrants' home lands fit together into a chronological succession of three American farms (1740s and 1820s and 1850s). A very interesting museum.",

        "title": "THE WEEKLY HOWL IS FEELING PATRIOTIC \u2014 GymWolves",
        "raw_content": "THE WEEKLY HOWL IS FEELING PATRIOTIC\nStay in shape: The life of a professional athlete is a demanding one. A big part of those demands are the physical requirements of each sport and the training required to excel in those requirements. After retirement, it is common to see athletes abandon their training and let themselves go. This has always made me a little sad. I hate to see the most physically gifted of us let their bodies fall into ruin. That\u2019s why I was excited to see this article about former NBA player Mike Bibby in GQ:\nGQ: Okay, start from retirement and take me to today. How did this happen?\nI\u2019m always in the gym. From like 7 A.M. to noon, I\u2019m working out, training others, and playing basketball. After that, I\u2019ll go back home, where I have a training gym. I'll train kids some more, and I can work on my basketball skills at the same time. I always try and learn new things because I want to be a coach, so everything plays into that.\nPeople aren\u2019t used to seeing me like this. I\u2019m not really as big as the picture made it seem. But if I were out of shape and fat, someone would say something about that. People are going to say something about you regardless of how you look, so I try to eat well and take care of my body as much as I can.\nIn what ways did you change your diet?\nAfter the BIG3 Combine, I started weighing all my food. I eat small portions, and more frequently throughout the day. I\u2019ll have a protein shake in the morning with a protein bar to start off, and work out until about noon. Then I\u2019ll go and have some breakfast food, like egg whites, toast, and turkey bacon, just to keep some protein in me. My lunches and dinners are a lot lighter now, since my food is getting weighed. I keep the carbs low and eat very little sugar. Since the combine, I\u2019ve probably lost 25 pounds. I\u2019m still strong\u2014it\u2019s just less fat. I knocked that off, and I feel good.\nWhat about the lifting? It appears that there is some lifting.\nI\u2019ve always had this build, and I\u2019ve always loved lifting weights\u2014it\u2019s just that when I played, teams didn\u2019t want me to lift heavy like that. Every summer when I came back for training camp, teams would always get mad because they said I looked like a linebacker. So it was just always just one set here, one set there\u2014that was all the lifting I did.\nOnce I retired, I had all the time in the world. Now I can lift heavier. I drop my kids off at school, and I\u2019m at the gym until they have to get picked up. Plus, think about it\u2014no one is really going to want to train with me if I\u2019m 300 pounds and can\u2019t get through a workout. I have to make sure I\u2019m getting right for my next coaching job.\nI love this. I realize professional sports is its own thing but sports is supposed to be about getting people active. Former athletes should be leading the charge in getting people active. Perhaps the fact that they don\u2019t says something about the intensity needed to compete at the highest level and the burnout that follows from it. But then you read something like this and see someone with a true passion for fitness. This guy wanted to work-out more while he was a player, his coaches had to hold him back. I love the passion!\nI also love seeing a coach who wants to lead by example; it drives me crazy how many coaches in professional sports are overweight or obese. These are guys who work in sports, have convenient access to the best equipment, demand that their players subject themselves to grueling work-outs, and they can\u2019t be bothered to stay in shape. We need more Mike Bibby\u2019s in the coaching ranks.\nArmy Strong: The U.S. Army has been testing a new concept for its Physical Fitness Test (PFT). The old test is a 2 mile run, pushups, and situps. The new test will be deadlifts, standing power throw, hand-release pushups, a 250 meter sprint/drag/carry, leg tuck, and a 2 mile run. If that wasn\u2019t a drastic enough change, the Army has announced it will also do away with age-specific scoring. From Military.com:\nIf you're an infantry platoon sergeant, it doesn't matter if you're 25 or 55; all will be held to the same fitness standards with the future Army Combat Fitness Test.\nThe new test does away with age-specific standards and sets requirements based on job demands instead, Army officials said.\nThe current Army Physical Fitness Test is based on a scoring scale that does not require older soldiers to perform as well as their younger counterparts.\nThe new ACFT, which is scheduled to replace the APFT in October 2020, will consist of a scoring scale that's based on standards soldiers need to meet to survive in combat, according to Maj. Gen. Malcolm Frost, who is overseeing the ACFT as commanding general of the U.S. Army Center of Initial Military Training.\n\"The bottom line is combat does not discriminate, bullets coming at you don't discriminate, the enemy coming at you does not discriminate ... by height, by gender, by age, and, quite frankly, by what uniform you are wearing,\" Frost said.\nThe way that the current system works is that there are different scoring systems for pre-determined age groups. So if you\u2019re in the 42-46 bracket, the standards are easier to meet than if you\u2019re in the 22-25 bracket. Doing away with age-specific scoring will make it harder for older soldiers to meet those standards. This is most interesting at the two extremes: those struggling to meet minimum standards and those trying to ace it. For those on the low end, it\u2019s hard to argue with this decision. The enemy will not care that you\u2019re a 35 year old E-6 and cut you a break. On the high-end, this has the potential to affect people\u2019s careers. Performance on the PFT factors into the evaluation process and strong performers at the more senior levels will have a harder time achieving high scores. You could argue that it will all balance out since most people in any pay-grade are roughly the same age but this will disadvantage anyone who joined the Army later than the average age. Plus, it will still not seem as impressive to not have a perfect score on the PFT.\nPrivacy: Another day, another data privacy scandal that has compromised national security. This time, it\u2019s Polar which may have inadvertently doxed a whole bunch of intelligence officers. From ZDNet:\nAlthough the existence of many government installations are widely known, the identities of their employees were not.\nBut now, an investigation by Dutch news site De Correspondent and Bellingcat found that Polar Flow exposed their fitness tracking data. The company's developer API could be improperly queried to retrieve fitness activities, like each running and cycling session, on any user.\nWith two pairs of coordinates dropped over any sensitive government location or facility, it was possible to find the names of personnel who track their fitness activities dating as far back as 2014.\nThe reporters identified more than 6,400 users believed to be exercising at sensitive locations, including the NSA, the White House, MI6 in London, and the Guantanamo Bay detention center in Cuba, as well as personnel working on foreign military bases.\nNames of officers and agents at foreign intelligence services, like GCHQ in Cheltenham, the French DGSE in Paris, and the Russian GRU in Moscow, were also found.\nStaff at nuclear storage facilities, missile silos, and prisons were also spotted.\nDe Correspondent shared some of the data with ZDNet to examine.\nNot only was it possible to see exactly where a user had exercised, it was easy to pinpoint exactly where a user lived, if they started or stopped their fitness tracking as soon as they left their house.\nBecause there were no limits on how many requests the reporters could make, coupled with easily enumerable user ID numbers, it was possible for anyone -- including malicious actors or foreign intelligence services -- to scrape the fitness activity data on millions of users.\nBut they also found they could trick the API into retrieving fitness tracking data on private profiles.\nThis is bad. Why any security service still allows its officers to use fitness trackers is beyond me. And any civilian who uses one should take a long, hard look at privacy settings. It is interesting to watch society-level attitudes towards privacy change so quickly. People are much more comfortable with having their information out there than they were in years past. Tech optimists would say it\u2019s because they feel that the benefits of technology outweighs the costs. Cynics would say that we\u2019re the frog in the pot and that the water is being heated up so gradually that we won\u2019t realize that we\u2019re being boiled alive.\nFreedom isn\u2019t free: Patriotism is in these day yet there is a struggle to properly express that sentiment. Most people just disrespect the American flag and call it a day. What if the best way to be a patriot was to work-out? From the Military Times:\nIt was the fitness that provided the fuel for our nation\u2019s freedom. More than a century and a half later, the Victory Corps of the 1940s recognized that fitness remained essential for maintaining that freedom. The plan was \u201cVictory through Fitness\u201d at the youth level, and as one general put it, \u201cYoung people in high school must be trained specifically to become better warriors.\u201d\nAnd now? We\u2019ve gotten soft. Three out four military-age young adults are physically incapable of serving in the military. And the fitness of those who can and do serve isn\u2019t much more encouraging. Consider:\n\u00b7 For the amount of money the military spends on treating weight-related diseases every single year, it could buy the Chicago Cubs.\n\u00b7 While rogue nations and terrorism are in the national security spotlight, our biggest threat is our own culture of idleness and excess.\n\u00b7 While all this is going on, our grandparents are rolling in their graves, secure in the knowledge that they surely could and would kick our ass.\nThe time for resting on our laurels is over. Do you consider yourself a \u201ctactical athlete\u201d? Do you consider yourself a patriot? If you are deconditioned and dormant, you are neither.\nInstead, you are a liability \u2014 a liability in a tactical situation or a liability on a health care system. You have drastically increased the odds that someone or some sickness will be able to kill you. The same sedentary lifestyle and poor dietary habits that will destroy your arteries will also distend your shot groups when it counts.\nThis is an underrated concept. Fitness is freedom, in both the larger and smaller sense. Nick Barringer tackles it from the larger sense: in order for a society to remain free, it will have to be able to fight for that freedom and in order to fight for that freedom, its citizens will have to be fit. Fitness is also freedom in the individual sense. The number one thing that elderly people complain about is their loss of mobility. Being dependent on someone or something else to move equals a loss of freedom as well. And the best way to avoid that is by staying active and keeping your musculoskeletal system strong. Fitness can also be freedom from becoming dependent on medication to stay alive. If you want to be free, you need to be able to do stuff on your own. In the individual sense, that\u2019s being able to move and lift heavy things. In the nation-wide sense, that\u2019s being able to defend our own country. In both cases though, fitness = freedom.\nBlast from the Past: Workout videos are nothing new. They\u2019ve been around as long as the VCR. And you can still buy them. From Vogue:\nAnd sure enough, a quick Google search brought me back to 1982, when the Oscar-winning actress released a VHS called Jane Fonda\u2019s Workout, which was based on her exercise book that had, by that point, been firmly planted on The New York Times bestseller list for two years. The tape went on to become one of the most popular of all time\u2014selling more than 17 million copies worldwide. \u201cI think we all did it at some point of our lives,\u201d my mother said when I asked her if she was familiar with it. I found it on Amazon Prime Video priced at $9.99, immediately downloaded it on my laptop, threw on my high school workout clothes, and gave it a shot.\nBefore things get rolling, a contemporary Fonda shows up (in a millennial pink moto jacket) to give the audience a brief intro on her revolutionary video, explaining that many moons ago, \u201cgyms were predominately for men,\u201d and that she mainly started this video for women to be able to have a quality workout on their own terms in the privacy of their own homes.\nI find it very interesting that Amazon has digitized old Jane Fonda workout videos. They must believe that there is demand for them amongst the type of people who would want to digitally download their workout videos. It is a common adage in Hollywood that you\u2019re not only competing with whatever other movies are currently in the theaters, you\u2019re competing with every movie ever made. Because the consumer has access to everything now and they might choose to watch the French Connection instead of heading out to the theaters for Mission Impossible 6. I wonder if we\u2019re going to see a similar attitude take hold in fitness. Everything that has put on film is now at the consumer\u2019s finger-tips. Even old Jane Fonda tapes.\n-Who\u2019s winning the offseason workout video war?\n-The CrossFit Games is going to include road cycling this year\n-Outside Magazine profiles ultrarunning/climbing wunderkind Killian Jornet\n-The Tour de France is too damn hard\nIn The Weekly Howl Tags Professional Sports, Military Fitness, fitness apps, Data Privacy, Obesity Epidemic, Streaming\n\u2190 THE WEEKLY HOWL IS GOING TO CAPITOL HILLTHE WEEKLY HOWL IS BODYBUILDING IN MIAMI \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Effortless Techniques for Getting Your Home in Order\nThe organization of your home is not tough, but you will need to devote time and vigor. Your beginning step will be to construct a scheme, secondly designate some time to do the organizing. Something as miniscule as organizing a kitchen cabinet will be a positive change. So we will offer a few suggestions to organize your home which will free you from some of the heaviness associated with disorder.\nOne of the spots to start with when organizing your home is in your closet, chest of drawers or any other part of the home where you store clothing. Almost everybody has clothes that they no longer wear. Go through all of your clothing, including shoes and sort everything out. You might just want to toss some items. Some things can be offered to aid organizations. Plus, the items you wish to hang onto can be arranged more systematically. As an example, the clothes that you are wearing during the present time of year should be more accessible than the clothes you wear during other times of the year. You might wish to stow away the out of season clothing in vacuum sealed plastic bags, so that they will stay clean and out of your way.\nYou may have never used a self storage facility, but you\u2019ve surely seen them, as they are almost everywhere you go now.\nMost people don\u2019t know what to do with all of their things, because they can\u2019t get rid of them, so this can be a way to make their home less crowded. Sometimes it is really difficult to get rid of what you don\u2019t need, but to do that along with making an honest effort to rearrange things is the first priority. Self storage gives you a place to keep furniture, boxes and various items that are taking up room in your house. If you want to consider this option, do some shopping around, as there are many companies that offer this service.\nReorganizing your kitchen can make a big difference when it comes to the overall atmosphere of your home. Anything that can\u2019t be repaired should be gotten rid of, as well as appliances that don\u2019t work, or things chipped or broken. Finding more space and fixing anything that is broken, will easily give you a much better feeling.\nThere is stuff in the cupboards that will never be used, so you shouldn\u2019t keep them any longer, and you will find the same types of things in the refrigerator. As you\u2019re doing this, you can also straighten out and reorganize what you do want to keep. When you are done using them, pots, pans and dishes should be put away, so the counter can be kept as clean as possible. You will be overwhelmed when you see the difference organization makes when it comes to your home. Even though you may have only thrown out a couple of things and moved some stuff around; it will seem like you have lots more living area. If you are able to keep your environment free of clutter; you could probably say the same regarding your thinking process.",

        "title": "White Matter | Janet Sternburg | Hawthorne Books",
        "raw_content": "White Matter: A Memoir of Family and Medicine is the story of a close-knit working-class Bostonian Jewish family of five sisters and one brother and the impact they and their next generation endured due to the popularization of lobotomy during the twentieth century. When Janet Sternburg\u2019s grandfather abandoned his family, and her uncle, Bennie, became increasing mentally ill, Sternburg\u2019s mother and aunts had to bind together and make crucial decisions for the family\u2019s survival. Two of the toughest and most heartrending familial decisions they made were to have Bennie undergo a lobotomy to treat his schizophrenia and later to have the youngest sister, Francie, undergo the same procedure to treat severe depression.\nWoven into Sternburg\u2019s story are notable figures that influenced the family as well as the entire medical field. In 1949, Egas Moniz was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for developing the lobotomy, and in the three years that followed his acceptance of the award, more Americans underwent the surgery than during the previous 14 years. By the early 1950s, Walter Freeman developed an alternate technique for lobotomy, which he proselytized during his travels throughout the country in a van he dubbed the \u201cLobotomobile.\u201d\nThe phrase \u201cprefrontal lobotomy\u201d was common currency growing up in Janet Sternburg\u2019s family, and in White Matter she details this scientific discovery that disconnects the brain\u2019s white matter, leaving a person without feelings, and its undeserved legitimization and impact on her family. She writes as a daughter consumed with questions about her mother and aunts\u2014all well meaning women who decided their siblings\u2019 mental health issues would be best treated with lobotomies. By the late 1970s, the surgical practice was almost completely out of favor, but its effects left patients and their families with complicated legacies as well as a stain on American medical history. Every generation has to make its own medical choices based on knowledge that will inevitably come to seem inadequate in the future. How do we live with our choices when we see their consequences?\nIn 1949, Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for \u201cone of the most important discoveries ever made in psychiatric therapy.\u201d The discovery was that surgically removing part of a person\u2019s frontal lobes could...Forward\n\u201cThis is the story of a family who made mistakes,\u201d begins White Matter , a beautiful, moving, and thought-provoking new book by poet, memoirist, and photographer Janet Sternburg, The mistake to which Sternburg refers is the...Forward\nTwo new books about Rosemary Kennedy, the lobotomized daughter of the Kennedy family, have been published in recent weeks, one by the niece of Rosemary\u2019s caretaker, the other by an historian.

Sternburg is a master at creating the perfect structuring metaphor through which to tell her family\u2019s history and by which to illuminate a particularly dark time in our nation\u2019s history. The work of White Matter is to find resolution to the dilemma of lives gone awry, despite the best of intentions. Ultimately the book\u2019s wisdom is its graceful depiction of wholeness within loss, the strength Sternburg found to escape her past, and then to return with questions only she could ask. Her answers matter to all of us.\nAuthor of Leaving the Pink House and A Sandhills Ballad and Editor-in-chief of Ploughshares\nJanet Sternburg\u2019s White Matter \u2014which intertwines the story of two lobotomized relatives, the history of lobotomy itself, and the author\u2019s own coming of age/ coming to writing\u2014demonstrates that sometimes telling it slant needs to give way to telling it straight. As Sternburg grapples thoroughly with her unnerving subject, her antennae admirably stay out for that which makes us human, how we serve and fail each other, what enables both love and grace.\nAuthor of The Argonauts\nWhite Matter: A Memoir of Family and Medicine is Sternburg\u2019s tale of what she discovered, put in the context of her family\u2019s history, the currents of 20th-century psychiatry, the fallibilities of the medical profession and the painful decisions that many of us make.\nNancy Szokan, The Washington Post\nWhile lobotomization is now a discredited procedure, her discoveries were somewhat complicated: \u201cWhen I began this investigation, I assumed that lobotomies produced only zombie-like people. But I\u2019ve learned since that they sometimes provided genuine relief to people who, to my surprise, were able to say how much better they were.\u201d\nOver the last several years, writers as different as the late David Foster Wallace in Consider the Lobster and Leslie Jamison in The Empathy Exams have expanded the boundaries of the essay and memoir. Sternburg in Phantom Limb and now with White Matter is part of this vanguard.\nThe author also touches on other well-known individuals whose family members had lobotomies, such as Allen Ginsberg\u2019s mother and Rosemary Kennedy. A vivid and melancholy exploration into the mental illnesses that affected one woman\u2019s family and the radical and damaging operations performed to counteract these ailments.\nMost of us love a good mystery. Add intergenerational secrets to the mix and you\u2019ve just upped the grip quotient. Add to that a medical procedure that\u2019s the stuff of nightmares and horror movies, and you\u2019ve got a potential hit. Janet Sternburg\u2019s memoir White Matter (Hawthorne Books, 2014) takes this recipe and adds a layer of truth.\nBasya Laye, Jewish Independent\nJust because [ White Matter is] one that probably won\u2019t make the cut at the neighborhood book club doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t find the time to read it.\nMichaela Bancud, The Portland Tribune\nA beautiful, moving, and thought-provoking new book\u2026White Matter isn\u2019t a conventional hybrid memoir in which a personal story and its larger context appear in alternating chapters, or in paragraphs separated by space breaks. The subtitle of Sternburg\u2019s book, \u201cA Memoir of Family and Medicine,\u201d signals that the story of Sternburg\u2019s family is inextricable from the story of lobotomy.\nNeuroscientists believe that walking, like meditation, yoga, and, yes, writing can actually restore connection and balance between the frontal cortex and the midbrain, between perception and reaction, thinking and feeling. In other words, these activities reinforce the same neural pathways severed in a lobotomy.\nDon\u2019t the best memoirs do the same? Reconnect feeling and language, experience and expression; bridge the space, as Sternburg writes, in this lovely, healing book, \u201cbetween a memory and a story?\u201d\nSuzanne Koven, The Los Angeles Review of Books\nIn its best moments, this book raises questions about the uncertain contours of compassion\u2026Sternburg is at her most astute when she can hold sometimes contradictory truths in mind\u2026\nMeehan Crist, The Los Angeles Times\nI loved the struggle of this book, and Sternburg writes it beautifully: the wrestling with that which has no answer, or at least an answer which won\u2019t sit still.\nDenise Wilkinson, Riverteeth: A Journal of Nonfiction Narrative\nWhite Matter builds with the suspense and gathering unease of a horror story. [There is] a poignant honesty and vulnerability to the narrating voice, as well as a sense of urgency. White Matter shines when creating what Sternburg finds lacking in medical culture: \u201d fellow-feeling - a link with another person, a baseline recognition that all of us are in this together, as well as a particularized recognition of the situation of another.\u201d\nKatherine Hayes, Women's Review of Books",

You\u2019ll see why below.\nOn Jarrid\u2019s blog post titled, \u201cI\u2019m Dating Someone Even Thought I\u2019m Married,\u201d he writes:\n\u201cI have a confession to make. I\u2019m dating someone even though I\u2019m married.\nShe\u2019s an incredible girl. She\u2019s beautiful, smart, cunning, strong, and has an immensely strong faith in God. I love to take her out to dinner, movies, local shows, and always tell her how beautiful she is. I can\u2019t remember the last time I was mad at her for longer than five minutes, and her smile always seems to brighten up my day no matter the circumstances.\nSometimes she will visit me at work unannounced, make me an incredible lunch, or even surprise me with something she personally baked. I can\u2019t believe how lucky I am to be dating someone even though I am married. I encourage you to try it and see what it can do for your life.\nOh! Did I mention the woman I am dating is my wife? What did you expect?\nJust because you\u2019re married, doesn\u2019t mean your dating life should end.\nI need to continue to date my wife even after I marry her. Pursuing my wife shouldn\u2019t stop just because we both said, \u201cI do.\u201d\u009d Way too many times do I see relationships stop growing because people stop taking the initiative to pursue one another.\nDating is a time where you get to learn about someone in a special and unique way. Why would you want that to ever stop? It shouldn\u2019t. Those butterflies you got on the first date shouldn\u2019t stop just because the years have passed. Wake up each day and pursue your spouse as if you are still on your first few dates. You will see a drastic change for the better in your relationship.\nWhen it comes to any relationship, communication and the action of constant pursuit is key. Nobody wants to be with someone who doesn\u2019t want to pursue them whole-heartedly.\nI encourage you to date your spouse, pursue them whole-heartedly, and understand that dating shouldn\u2019t end just because you said, \u201cI do.\u201d\n\u2013 Jarrid Wilson\u201d\nIt comes around once a year and is usually touted as a big corporate scheme.

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019ve landed on our blog here at Infraspeak, you\u2019ve surely heard about facility management. But in a field as broad as facility management, it\u2019s not always easy to understand exactly what a facility manager does. So today, we\u2019re facing this question head-on: after all, what is facility management?\nWhat does facility management consist of?\nFacility management is mainly divided into two types \u2014 the first is the maintenance of facilities and buildings, which includes the organization of space, equipment maintenance and the management of routine tasks, among others. The second is the management of organizations and people, which covers catering, cleaning, human resources, and IT and communications.\nBy properly maintaining a company\u2019s assets and optimizing routine tasks, facility management will contribute to healthier profit margins. But wait, there\u2019s more. Facility management is also at the core of good customer service. And when customers are happy, they return, give referrals and your business grows sustainably.\nLet\u2019s get practical: what are the real day-to-day changes?\nThe benefits we mentioned above are capable of sparking the interest of any manager. But what does it mean in practice? What implications will a routine infrastructure management system have? It depends on your company and your needs, of course. Let\u2019s imagine, for a moment, that you manage a hotel with 300 rooms. Your cleaning staff needs to know which rooms are going to be vacated, where do you need to replace a light bulb and which guest requested an extra blanket.\nGenerally, each guest communicates directly with the reception. The reception then relays the information to the person in charge of the cleaning staff, who, in turn, has to forward the request to the person in charge of each wing. Finally, the last employee in charge of executing the task will be informed. In all, there are at least 4 steps and 3 opportunities for communication failure. Not to mention, this also requires each person in the chain of communication to spend time on the same particular task.\nThat\u2019s one way to do it (but please don\u2019t). The more efficient way is to have a computerized infrastructure management system where information can enter the system directly and schedule tasks automatically.\nLet\u2019s now consider a shopping center, for example. When what\u2019s at stake is a facility where hundreds of people work, nothing can fail. Maintenance teams need to control escalators, elevators, the cleaning of common areas, the alarm setups and beware of periodic inspections, among many other tasks. Can you imagine monitoring all of this manually?\nAs companies grow, acquire more equipment and expand their teams, there is less room for error. Facility management is essential to ensure that everything runs smoothly and that there is real synergy between everyone in the maintenance team. All of this under the watchful eye of the maintenance manager, of course, who can spot errors and knows how to improve the machine that\u2019s keeping the company running.",

        "title": ".....EXCERPTS FROM KARATEDO KYOHAN - THE MASTER TEXT",
        "raw_content": "KARATE-DO KYOHON - THE MASTER TEXT\nTHE VALUE OF KARATE\nAS ATHLETIC TRAINING\nThe nature of karate is such that it requires the body to move in all directions, in contrast, for example, to the emphasis on the arms in rowing or the legs in jumping. There is absolutely no need for concern about one-sided development of the body in karate, and the fact of uniform development may be considered to be one of the benefits of karate.\nIn most cases, only a minute or two is required to complete a kata. Moreover,as one continues to practice, the movements become quicker and the training as a whole more vigorous, so that one can get ample exercise from a relatively short period of time. This is an ideal form of exercise for the many people. today who complain that they would like to exercise, but they just do not have the time. The little time required is, therefore, a second major advantage. Almost no other form of exercise, be it judo, kendo, archery, swimming, or horsemanship, can be performed at any time or place as easily as karate. Most sports require a large area, equipment, or a partner, and in this regard as well, karate is the most adaptable. No specific area,equipment, or even partner are necessary, for it can be performed in a garden, living room, hallway, at any time or place that one feels the desire to practice. This is the third significant advantage of karate.\nUsually, exercise suitable for men is not suitable for women, and that for women is probably not enough for men; that for people recovering from illness is not enough for healthy people, and similarly, sufficient exercise for healthy, young people is too strenuous for older people or young children. Karate, however, may even be practiced by the physically weak, by women, children, and by elderly people. In other words, since each individual may adjust the exercise to his own capacity, and with each unit of exercise being of but one to two minutes' duration, there is no danger of overexertion or physical exhaustion. Moreover, as the body is built up and the techniques become more skillful, the movements naturally become more powerful, so that the amount of exercise becomes sufficient even for the healthy young man in his prime. Thus, the amount of exercise increases naturally as the training progresses, a point that I would cite as the fourth athletic merit of karate.\nThe fact that karate may be practiced either alone or in groups is a feature unique to it. Finally, even considered purely from the standpoint of physical techniques of practical value, the individual hand or foot movements, each with its own meaning, and the many variations in the various kata sequences become challenges to learn. While enjoying and being engrossed in their study on this basis, one accrues their benefits almost without realizing it.\nThe value of karate as physical training may easily be demonstrated by scientific tests, and even after a year or less of practice, one can easily see for himself the tremendous improvement in his condition over its state before karate training.\nMy esteemed teachers, the late masters Shishu (in Japanese, Itosu) and Azato, were both very weak in their childhood, but after starting to train in karate as a means of improving their health, they developed so much that they seemed like different people compared to their old selves and lived to become famous, in our times, as old masters. Master Shishu lived to the venerable age of eightyfive, and Azato to that of eighty. Master Azato's own teacher, Master Matsumura, lived to be over ninety years of age. Other contemporary karate experts such as Masters Yamaguchi, Aragake, Chibana, Nakazato, Yahiku, Tokashiki, Sakihara, and Chinen, have all lived to be over eighty. These examples are indicative of the role of karate as a superior method of maintaining one's health.\nAlmost all living creatures have some mechanism for defending themselves, for, where this development is incomplete, the weaker are destroyed and perish in the fierce struggle for survival. The fangs of the tiger and lion, the talons of the eagle and hawk, the poisonous sting of the bees and scorpions, and the thorns of the rose and Bengal quince: are these not all preparations for defense? But if the lower mammals, birds, insects, and plants each have such specialization, should not man, the lord of creation, be prepared as well? An appropriate basis for the reply to this question is provided by the statement: We should have no intention of harming other people, but we must try to keep out of harm's way. To protect oneself, one must find a method that will give the weak the power to defend themselves against stronger opponents. The power of karate has become well known in these times for its effectiveness in breaking boards or cracking stone without tools, and it is not an exaggeration to assert that a man well trained in this form of defense may consider the whole body to be a weapon of awesomely effective offensive power.\nFinally, although karate does have throwing techniques, it relies principally on striking, kicking, and thrusting techniques. These movements are much quicker and can escape the untrained eye. Block-attack combinations are execute simultaneously, and weaker individuals, women or young boys, do have ample strength to control a more powerful opponent with them. In short, among the advantages of karate as a means of self-defense are these: no weapons are necessary; the old or sick, or women, are able to apply it; and one can protect himself effectively even with little natural strength. These points combine to make karate a form of self-defense without equal.\nAS SPIRITUAL TRAINING\nKarate is no different from the other martial arts in fostering the traits of courage, courtesy, integrity, humility, and self-control in those who have found its essence. However, most of the martial arts, since their practice is harsh from the outset, are not suited to individuals of weak constitution, poor build, or weak character, and such students, generally speaking, will lose spirit and drop out early in their training. Moreover, it is possible for a student, because of physical weakness, to train so conscientiously that he overexerts himself to the point of injuring himself or becoming ill, his body not being able to keep pace with his will, and early failures of this sort are encountered as well. For these reasons, many people, being physically weak, have had to give up hope of training in the martial arts, even though such training and its development of bravery and a solid, firm body could be of special importance to the constitutionally or spiritually weak individual. It is, therefore, important in this context as well that karate can be practiced by the young and old, men and women alike. That is, since there is no need for a special training place, equipment, or an opponent, a flexibility in training is provided such that the physically and spiritually weak individual can develop his body and mind so gradually and naturally that he himself may not even realize his own great progress.\nThis flexibility of training also makes possible great strides in spiritual training. For if training in any martial art is discontinued after half a year or a year, it can hardly be expected to lead to any degree of spiritual training. An insight into this art, a mastery of its techniques, a polishing of the virtues of courage, courtesy, integrity, humility, and self-control to make them the inner light to guide one's daily actions: these require at the least ten or twenty years, if possible a lifetime of devotion to the study of this art. In view of its adaptability to continued training, I consider karate to be the most suitable of the many martial arts in leading to fulfillment of the need for training of the spirit.",

        "raw_content": "-According to one survey around 93% of men and 89% of women masturbate on a regular basis. The washroom and the bedroom were nominated as the most common places where one is likely to masturbate. Washrooms ensure privacy while the bed is known for the comfort that it provides.\nIf you too are addicted to masturbation, you may have noticed that horny thoughts usually occupy your mind when you are in the washroom to take a shower. You have just undressed, you\u2019re applying shower gel to your body when suddenly your hands reach for your genitalia and you automatically start longing for an orgasm. Once you have started stroking your genitals, then it becomes almost impossible to stop before an orgasm.\nHere are some superb tips on how to quit masturbating while in the shower:\n1. Try to take shower in extremes of temperature, that is, extremely hot or extremely cold. For example, if the temperature in your washroom is around 3 degree centigrade you will not like to stay naked for a longer period of time. This will reduce your showering time and you will be less likely to stay naked in the act of masturbation.\n2. Reduce your average time in taking showers: There is no harm in setting a stop watch on. Research has shown that five to seven minutes is enough to take a quick shower. When you\u2019re a masturbation addict, you are likely to masturbate if your showers take longer than 5 to 7 minutes.\n3. Do not soap your genital organs right away because once you touch them, you\u2019re quite likely to think about masturbation already. You should clean your entire body first and clean your genital organs when you\u2019re nearly done with your shower.\n4. Do not touch your genital organs: If you have to clean them, it\u2019s better to clean them using some rough cloth whose excessive use will be uncomfortable for you.\nSecrets on How to Stop Masturbating",

Casey has a 3-foot par putt to stay three shots behind when they return at 8 a.m. Monday to play the par-3 17th and the par-5 18th.\nPhil Mickelson sits at 18 under and leads by three shots from final group playing partner Paul Casey and Scott Stallings (66).\n\"Every time I get here I have such feelings of gratitude that all that this place has done for my family, starting with my grandfather\", he said.\nHe started the day three shots off Casey's lead but roared to the top of the leaderboard with six birdies that put him 18-under for the tournament with two holes remaining.\nIn fact both players finished par-par enabling Mickelson to not only level Mark O'Meara's handful of AT&T wins but join Tiger Woods on 14 victories celebrated in California country. Casey said there was no way to finish and they had to return Monday morning.\n\"I'm looking forward to getting back at it at Bay Hill\", Day said. Mickelson never came close to making bogey and won for the 44th time on the PGA Tour.

        "raw_content": "Reglan Lawsuits\nReglan is a prescription drug that treats short-term heartburn and has been linked to tardive dyskinesia \u0097 repetitive, involuntary movements of the extremities. Although Reglan has not been associated with wrongful death, people have been harmed and therefore may be eligible for compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other burdens stemming from drug treatment defects. Victims or family members of the victim should contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to adhere to statutes of limitations.\nReglan (metoclopramide hydrochloride) is an oral medication that treats a variety of gastrointestinal conditions. It is meant for short-term use of four to 12 weeks in patients with persistent heart burn or diabetic gastroparesis \u0097 a digestive disorder in which the stomach does not contract.\nReglan treats heartburn and other digestive disorders by increasing the contractions of stomach muscles, which raises the rate of gastric emptying. As a result, the stomach empties food to the intestines more quickly, giving patients relief from heartburn and other digestive disorders.\nHowever, ongoing use of Reglan may lead to tardive dyskinesia, a condition characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements of the extremities. Reglan lawsuits claim that the drug manufacturer, Wyeth Incorporated, should have done more to warn doctors and patients of the potential risks.\nCompensation for Reglan Side Effects\nVictims of defective drugs may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, emotional distress, lost income and lost opportunities caused by the side effects of a drug. Some personal injury lawyers also earn punitive damages for their clients, which are awarded to punish the defendant(s) for their wrongful actions and prevent similar actions in the future.\nResearch has suggested that drugs containing metoclopramide, including Reglan, may cause tardive dyskinesia. Patients with tardive dyskinesia may experience the following symptoms:\nPursing of the lips\nImpaired movement of the fingers\nSome of these uncontrolled movements can cause patients physical harm, as well as embarrassment in social settings. Many patients have filed suit seeking compensation for these unfortunate side effects.\nFiling a Reglan Lawsuit\nReglan is a prescription medication that contains metoclopramide, a drug that treats short-term heart burn and diabetic gastroparesis, or delayed gastric emptying, in diabetics. Many patients who have taken Reglan have developed tardive dyskinesia, an irreversible condition that has no treatment.\nIs Reglan Safe for Nursing Mothers?\nReglan has been proven to increase the production of prolactin \u0097 a hormone that is primarily responsible for lactation. Many physicians prescribe Reglan to new mothers to increase their breast milk production. Recent studies have shown that small traces of Reglan are found in breast milk; however, the drug has no shown side effects in infants. Women taking Reglan to increase their breast milk production should closely monitor their moods, as the drug can cause depression and/or anxiety. They should also avoid prolonged use of the drug, as this may lead to tardive dyskinesia.\nSeveral victims of Reglan's side effects have filed personal injury claims against Wyeth Incorporated, the manufacturer of the drug. Many claim the warning label inadequately highlighted the severity of the risks involved with Reglan and its prolonged usage. In February 2009, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a \"black box\" warning for Reglan, its sternest warning. Under FDA mandate, Wyeth Inc. must highlight the risk of tardive dyskinesia in a boxed warning on the drug's label.\nWhen filing a claim against a drug manufacturer, a personal injury lawyer for injuries may cite any number of statutes and laws. Some states have laws regarding pharmaceutical liability, while others hold defective drug manufacturers to account under general strict liability laws, which do not require negligence to be proven.\nIf you or a loved one has been harmed by Reglan, a personal injury attorney who has experience with defective drug claims can evaluate your case and help you determine your legal rights. Your lawyer can identify any expert testimony needed to highlight medical, pharmacological, regulatory, or other defective drug issues that may help support your case.\nIn some cases it is more advantageous to file or join a class action lawsuit against the defective drug manufacturer, awards from which can amount to millions of dollars for the victims. Speaking with a defective drug attorney will help you determine whether you are eligible to receive compensation for your suffering.\nReglan has caused more drug-induced movement disorders than any other drug.\nSource:Food and Drug Administration (FDA)",

        "title": "iBreatheMusic.com - Step by Step Song Writing Guide by Chris Juergensen",
        "raw_content": "Step by Step Song Writing Guide\nThis lesson is going to walk you through the basics of song writing. One thing you have to remember: writing a song is more of an art than a science. There is no one correct way to write music, all composers use different methods and various combinations of those methods to come up with the finished product.\nIn order to study composition, you will also have to study some theory. A good understanding of music theory is not completely necessary to write good music but it is essential to analyze well written music and to conceptualize various compositional techniques.\nA word of advice: if you have little experience writing songs and/or you don't have some basic theory under your belt, this lesson is gonna take you a while to get through. Take your time, there is no need to rush. If you have some writing experience and/or some theory knowledge, the first half of this lesson will give you a chance to review before moving on to some advanced ideas in the second half.\nWorking With Triads\nFirst we will need to learn how to compose in one key. Later on I'll explain a completely different method of composition, one based on a method of complete harmonic freedom, but first let's work within the perimeters of one major scale. Take a look at the two octave C major scale below. If you are not yet familiar with the C major scale, take this opportunity to become so.\nThe chicken or the egg, a short history of monophony - Which came first, scales or chords? I'm not a music historian so I'm guessing, but I think that a few hundred years ago, probably in Europe, guys used to sit around and sing melodies from the major scale in unison.\nI bet they got real bored of doing this and to make the whole thing a little more fun, someone decided to experiment. One guy probably said to another guy; \"Hey, this is lame, instead of me and you singing the same exact thing in unison, let's try singing different notes!\" His friend then replied; \"Okay, when you sing the first note of the scale C, I'll sing the third note E.\"\nAfter trying that for a while they got another guy to sing the fifth note G, and three part harmony was born. You see, when you stack the first, third and fifth note in the C major scale on top of each other, you get a chord, a C chord. Since this chord is built on the first note of the major scale we can call it the \"one\" (I) chord. Check out the example below.\nA family of diatonic chords - We can do the same thing for all the notes of the major scale. Let's do the same thing for the second note, D in the C major scale. We'll just stack every other note on top of each other and we'll get a D minor chord. Since this chord is built on the second note of the major scale it gets named the \"two\" (ii) chord:\nThe whole diatonic chord family - If we do the same thing for each note of the C major scale, we will get seven chords, one for each note of the scale. These chords are called triads because they only contain three notes (\"tri\" as in triangle or tripod):\nThe numbering system - These chords need to be numbered so we can analyze written music and so we can communicate our musical ideas. There may be some argument on how to notate the numbers for each chord but nobody will argue the order or harmonic quality of the chords; The \"one\" chord in the key of C major is a C major chord no matter how you notate the number 1. This is how the numbers usually get notated:\nLarge case Roman numeral (I, IV, V) refer to major quality chords while small case Roman numerals (ii, iii. vi) refer to minor quality chords. Small case Roman numerals followed by the small circle (viio) stand for diminished quality chords.\nExpanding to other keys - The order of the diatonic chords from the major scale will never change, even if the key does. The first chord (I) will always be major. Take a look at the chart below and notice how although the chord names change from key to key, the harmonic order does not.\nThe previous graph only shows the first five keys in the circle of fifths, I would suggest that you write out all the keys and practice different diatonic chord progressions in each of them. Some common chord progression you may want to try out:\nI vi IV V\nI iii vi IV\nI V vi iii IV I IV V\nSpeaking the language of musicians - Remembering the order is important so that you can communicate with other musicians. Rather than telling the guys in the band that the changes for the new tune you wrote are; C major, A minor, F major and G major, it is a lot simpler just to say; \"Play a one - six - four - five in C.\"\nVoicings - It makes no difference how we stack the three notes. C E and G stacked in any order and doubled as many times as the person voicing the chord pleases will not change the fact that it is still a C chord, the \"I\" chord in the key of C. Play every C major chord voicing you know and you'll see what I mean, each one is made up of only C, E, and G notes. Check out the example below, each chord below is a C chord:\nAnalysis 1: OK, time to get you going on harmonic analysis. Try to figure out what the chords are below. We are looking for both the chord name (above) and the Roman numeral below. Check your answers at the bottom of the lesson.\nQuick Jump Page 1 - Working With TriadsPage 2 - Writing a tunePage 3 - Expanding HarmonyPage 4 - Momentary Key ChangesPage 5 - Complete Harmonic Freedom\nWriting a tune >>",

        "raw_content": "From Pilot To Patient . . . The Longest And Hardest Transition That We Will Ever Make\nIs old age catching up with you? Having a hard time passing the FAA physical examination? Old body just wearing out? Tired of the hassle? Are you eating more medication than you are food? Has it started tasting good? If so, you just may be a candidate for losing your FAA Medical Certificate. Make you happy?\nThis is something that eventually happens to most of us. We spend almost a lifetime as healthy, vibrant members of the aviation community, but as age sneaks up on us we suddenly get old. It seems like overnight but actually it's over time. First we slow down, then we get sick, then we stop. I'm watching this take place more and more as former students and pilots that have flown with me for years are getting grounded by illness. High blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, circulation, eyes, ears, nose, throat, and a host of everyday maladies are catching up with my friends.\nWhat if you find yourself for the first time in probably 50 years having someone tell you that you are not healthy enough or safe enough to fly? Just think for a minute what that statement would mean to you. I have watched grown men cry after hearing this statement. I've seen them get better, fight for the right to fly, change their lifestyle, start eating right or at least better, lose some weight, slack off on the booze, quit smoking, and all of a sudden they feel better and can pass muster once again for the FAA AME. Some simply can't take the pressure and they are too scared to fight and get driven out.\nNow that the secret is out (the fact that we all get old), whatever age and condition you are today, plan on doing whatever is necessary to be better tomorrow. It isn't fun, but it really works. This is a choice that we in the aviation community have to make. We are entrusted with the lives of others and that means due diligence on our part for every single flight.\nFor those of you who have met me, I am the perfect example of what a healthy lifestyle can produce, but all that I do won't keep me from getting sick or dying tomorrow. I eat what is healthy. I walk, run, and lift weights. I only have one wife and she doesn't let me date other women. I don't smoke or drink and I'm too cheap to buy dope. At the ripe old age of 71, I can still pass a 1st Class physical, fly a Mitsubishi in Part 135, teach flight and ground students, present FAA Safety Seminars several times each year, and make myself and my time available to almost anyone who needs a boost in flying. Oh yes, I still write for several aviation magazines on a monthly basis. Does all that stuff make me happy? You bet!\nIf it didn't I'd give it up today, buy a Harley and a gallon of Black Jack and ride off into the moonlight. Does it mean that I can't die of cancer or get run over by a car later on today? Nope. It simply means that I have chosen to try to keep active in aviation as long as I can. I absolutely love aviation and know that most of you do, too. What we each must decide is whether it is worth the sacrifices it requires to stay healthy in order to fly an airplane. My answer will always be yes, what's yours? What we as pilots have to do is live for today and do whatever we can to stay alive and pass that 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Class FAA Physical. I really don't think that any of us set out to be unhealthy; we just realize that it is a chore to stay that way. It really, for some, takes all the fun out of living.\nThe FAA is not out to get your certificate! Take that thought out of your hard peanut. The rules apply to all of us and we are given every chance and plenty of time to prepare for this yearly ordeal. What we will be tested for and what parameters they expect us to meet are clearly spelled out for all to read in our rules and regulations. I've watched our local FAA Doc go far out of his way to help those about to fail an exam. He doesn't have to, so the onus is really on us from the first time that we decide to fly and take a physical.\nWhat we don't do generally is spend much time in the preparation department. What it takes is that daily commitment on our part to stay healthy and a desire to keep flying. Both of these things will go a long way toward getting our mindset straight. You've really got to want to stay healthy.\nI know a lot of this sounds like the same old deja poo, but there's some truth in the statement that you can do what you want to do if you really set your mind to it. Remember, you can fly an airplane. You are one out of every 300 and you are a part of the less than 1% of the population that can aviate. You, my friends, are very special.\nBesides losing the right to fly, hangar or airplane, to bum around the airport, to listen in and tell tall tales from years gone by, and to lend a hand with a newbie just getting their wings, not being healthy costs more money than being healthy. How so? All those tests, paperwork, telephone calls, land spam and otherwise are billed to you as you try to recoup your certificate along with the FAA AME, who charges also. And just so you know, it isn't covered by insurance, at least that's what I am told from those going through it now.\nMaybe the truth of the matter is that you have been looking at the rules and regulations for Sport Pilots, Experimentals, Gliders, Ultralights, Powered Parachutes, Bungee Jumping, or a host of other ways to become one with the sky. Or maybe you have gone for a test ride on a new Harley-Davidson. I hope not because I'll miss you as a fellow pilot and airport buddy.\nAs the meanest flight instructor on the base, I really can't afford to lose any more friends so I'm asking you to stand in front of your mirror, take a look at where you are in life and tell yourself what it is that you want to do. If you think you have had a good run, done everything you wanted to accomplish, flown everything and everywhere you could, and think it is getting close to rocking chair time, then so mote it be. I'm going to miss you and if you have second thoughts on any day I am at the airport, just stop by my hangar. I can always use an extra hand getting the bugs off the wings, and if you feel up to it, we can fly to a $100 hamburger caf' and I'll buy. Sound fair? I look forward to seeing you.\n(Everything we've talked about here can be found in your most recent FAR book under Part 67.)\nJAMES E.

        "raw_content": "3 Ways Your Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon Treats Arthritis\noctubre 11, 2018 3 Ways Your Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon Treats Arthritis2018-10-11T15:19:00+00:00 Illinois No Comment\nROSEMONT, Ill., Oct. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ \u2014 Almost half of the population in their 60s and 70s has arthritis in their feet or ankles. In recognition of World Arthritis Day 2018 on October 12, the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society\u00ae (AOFAS) raises awareness for this painful condition and offers a guide to treatment options.\nArthritis is a broad term for numerous conditions that destroy how a normal joint works. There are several types of arthritis. The most common type, osteoarthritis, results from \u201cwear and tear\u201d to the soft tissue between joint bones, which causes pain, inflammation, redness, and swelling. When you have arthritis of the foot or ankle, the pain makes it hard to walk, and if left untreated the foot or ankle may eventually become deformed.\nFoot and ankle arthritis is very common and often overlooked, according to foot and ankle orthopaedic surgeon, Casey Jo Humbyrd, MD, of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore. If you suspect that you may have foot or ankle arthritis, the first step is to consult with a foot and ankle orthopaedic surgeon. They will give you a complete medical examination and confirm the type and extent of the arthritis through x-rays, laboratory tests, and bone scans.\nBased on the diagnosis, your doctor will recommend a treatment plan. As Dr. Humbyrd explains, there are three ways foot and ankle orthopaedic surgeons treat foot and ankle arthritis.\nTreatment generally depends upon the location and severity of the arthritis. \u201cIf arthritis is in the front or the middle of the foot, shoe wear modification and stiffening the insoles can provide symptomatic relief,\u201d said Dr. Humbyrd. \u201cIf it is in the ankle or back of the foot, braces and shoe modifications can also provide relief.\u201d The doctor also may recommend weight loss, adjusting your activity levels, or physical therapy.\nMedication can help reduce swelling in the foot and ankle, as well as manage pain. The surgeon\u2019s treatment regimen may include anti-inflammatory medication or steroid injections. It is important to take these medications as directed by your doctor.\nIf the patient still experiences ankle pain and decreased function from arthritis after trying all nonoperative treatment options, Dr. Humbyrd then considers surgery. There are a variety of surgical options to get the patient back to their normal activity. One such procedure is a total ankle replacement, which replaces the arthritic joint with an artificial joint. Though not all patients are candidates for the surgery, total ankle replacement can drastically reduce pain and improve function for people with ankle arthritis.\nDr. Humbyrd notes that there are many new and interesting advancements in foot and ankle arthritis treatment. \u201cOne of the newer products is a synthetic cartilage implant used to treat arthritis in the big toe.\u201d Dr. Humbyrd continues, \u201cOther new advancements include custom 3D-printed implants that enable us to treat deformities, arthritis, and bone loss of lower extremities.\u201d\nLearn more about foot and ankle arthritis treatment from FootCareMD.org.\nAbout Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons\nFoot and ankle orthopaedic surgeons are medical doctors (MD and DO) who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries of the foot and ankle. Their education and training consist of four years of medical school, five years of postgraduate residency, and a fellowship year of specialized surgical training. These specialists care for patients of all ages, performing reconstructive surgery for deformities and arthritis, treating sports injuries, and managing foot and ankle trauma.\nAbout the AOFAS\nThe American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) mobilizes our dynamic community of foot and ankle orthopaedic surgeons to improve patient care through education, research, and advocacy. As the premier global organization for foot and ankle care, AOFAS delivers exceptional events and resources for continuous education, funds and promotes innovative research, and broadens patient understanding of foot and ankle conditions and treatments. By emphasizing collaboration and excellence, AOFAS inspires ever-increasing levels of professional performance leading to improved patient outcomes.

        "raw_content": "White House press scandal: The story gets juicier\u2026\nYou may have heard about Jeff Gannon (real name James Guckert), the now-former White House correspondent for tiny right-wing website Talon News, owned by a Republican operative from Texas named Bobby Eberle.\nGuckert received daily White House press credentials for almost two years, despite his lack of journalistic experience. (It\u2019s worth noting that Guckert was unable to get a Congressional press pass, often a prerequisite for getting a White House pass). Guckert lobbed partisan softball questions at McClellan and Bush, and was recently exposed by liberal bloggers after Bush called on him during a televised press conference. Guckert has since left Talon News, and Talon has scrubbed all of his stories from their site.\nNow it turns out that Guckert may be a gay escort. Yesterday, AMERICAblog uncovered numerous gay websites registered to Mr. Guckert and found nude photos on other gay websites that strongly resemble Guckert. He also owes over $20,000 in back taxes to his home state of Delaware. In addition, Guckert is rumored to be connected to the Valerie Plame leak (Plame, the wife of diplomat Joseph Wilson, had her CIA cover blown by columnist Robert Novak, after Wilson concluded that Saddam did not attempt to purchase uranium from Africa, as alleged by the White House).\nGuckert responds to many of the allegations in a Editor and Publisher interview here. As of today, E&P reports that Guckert is no longer speaking to the press.\nAll this comes on the heels of revelations that several governmental departments paid three syndicated columnists to shill for White House policies. Democrats are now calling for an investigation into how Guckert got the coveted White House press credentials. The mainstream news media hasn\u2019t quite picked up on the latest developments yet, although the Washington Post\u2019s Dan Froomkin and C-SPAN have covered it, among others.\nSo how did a reporter for a small partisan news website owned by a Texas Republican activist \u2014 a reporter with no legitimate journalistic credentials \u2014 get repeated access to White House press briefings? Why did Scott McClellan call on him by his assumed first name? Why did Bush call on him in a rare televised press conference? Did he have access to the Valerie Plame leak, and why? Was anyone aware of his private life?\nFreedom of religion\u2026 Just watch what you practice\nIn one of his first acts as Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales is appealing to the Supreme Court to block a Brazilian church\u2019s use of a hallucinogenic tea.\nThe O Centro Espirita Beneficiente Uniao do Vegetal church of New Mexico uses hoasca tea as a sacramental brew in it\u2019s religious practice. This practice is rooted in the practices of the aboriginal tribes of the Amazon basin, much like the Native American Church\u2019s use of peyote.\nA study published in a medical journal on the use of hoasca indicated generally positive effects in those who imbibed for sacramental purposes. Several lower court rulings have affirmed the group\u2019s right to use hoasca for religious purposes.\nI guess I don\u2019t need to point out the hypocrisy of an administration that wraps itself in the cloak of religion, yet denies religious freedoms for small groups that engage in unconventional practices. If that isn\u2019t what freedom of religion is all about, then I don\u2019t know what is.\nFlash! Ahh Ahhh!\nIn light of my last post about forgotten musical films (in this case, 1986\u2019s Crossroads), Emptyfree.com has this post about 1981\u2019s Flash Gordon, and posts the entire Queen soundtrack for download. This will definitely be getting airplay on the impromptu radio show I plan to do tonight.\nThe Dustbin of Film History: Crossroads (1986), starring Ralph Macchio\nFor some odd reason, the memory of this film came back to me, and I wondered where the hell it went, and also, is it even available on DVD? Turns out that yes, it was released on DVD this past year.\nFor those who don\u2019t know this film (or have long forgotten about it), it stars Ralph \u201cKarate Kid\u201d Macchio as a guitar-slinging Juilliard student who drops out to explore the Missisippi Delta with an aging black bluesman he sprung from an old folks home. I haven\u2019t seen it in over twelve years, and I remember begging my mother to take me to see this R-rated movie when I was 12. (She didn\u2019t, but I saw it a few years later when it ended up on cable television.)\nDespite it\u2019s obscurity, the film does have a cult following, as evidenced by the glowing reviews on IMDB and Amazon. Crossroads\u2019 major claim to fame is that it is probably the only guitar movie ever made. The film\u2019s climax is the most memorable part, a \u201cduel with the devil\u201d between Macchio\u2019s character (guitar by Ry Cooder) and Scratch (aka Satan), played to the hilt by former guitar god Steve Vai.\nThis review on Amazon by an Itamar Katz probably sums up this movie best:\n\u201cAs a cinematic work, Crossroads is nothing special. Except for Joe Seneca who was great as the aging blues-legend on the run from the devil, the acting is awful. Ralph Macchio is decent, except that he\u2019s doing the EXACT same character he did in Karate Kid. The love interest between Eugene and Frances is silly, shallow and simply doesn\u2019t work. The screenplay, above all, is terrible. The directing and photography are good, which makes the film at least bearable.\n\u201cBut the film is just an excuse for one of the most amazing soundtracks I\u2019ve ever heard. Classical guitar, Robert Johnson classic blues, Muddy Waters electric blues and hard blues rock run throughout this film wonderfuly; for bluesmen and guitar lovers, Crossroads is a must. The ending with Steve Vai, above all, is one of the greatest scenes I\u2019ve seen and makes the whole movie worthwile - and both Vai and \u2018Eugene\u2019 play a KILLER guitar\u2026 Overall, a very mediocre movie and for many probably boring, but a cult classic and a musical masterpiece.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Opening IP EXPO Europe 2016 is the renowned TEDx speaker & philosopher Nick Bostrom who examines the future of Artificial Intelligence and the impact on humankind.\nAnd according to Bostrom, it\u2019s cruicial we keep control!\nNicks work influences the thinking of Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk and Bill Gates and spurred them to write an open letter to the world last year highlighting artificial intelligence and its risk to humanity.\nNick Bostrom is one of the worlds leading thinkers on the implications and potential effects of artificial intelligence and developments in technology. He is the author of the acclaimed Superintelligence and is the founding Director of Oxford Universitys Future of Humanity Institute.\nBorn and raised in Sweden, and intellectually curious from childhood, Nick studied a wide range of subjects in parallel including physics, computational neuroscience, and mathematical logic as well as philosophy and was subsequently expelled from Ume University psychology department for studying too much. He studied physics and neuroscience in London, where he also dabbled in standup comedy and theatre.\nSince then Nick has founded the Future of Humanity Institute (part of the Oxford Martin School) which takes a multidisciplinary look through mathematics, philosophy and science at big-picture question for humanity and global priorities. He also directs Oxfords Strategic Artificial Intelligence Research Centre, co-founded the World Transhumanist Association, and was involved in the founding of the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies to stimulate wider discussion about the implications of future technologies, in particular technologies that might lead to human enhancement.\nNick now takes a global platform to lead discussions on areas such as AI and its effects on humanity and the world. He highlights the need to examine the implications of these developments, warning that overlooking just one area of significant impact could undermine all the previous hard work in the area. These areas stretch from the philosophical and ethical to the purely rational when considering the possibilities of human enhancement, human-like reasoning and learning, machine intelligence and the advent of AI that improves itself without human interference.\nDespite the high-level of work Nick is involved with, he has a natural ability to make these ideas relevant, understandable, and even entertaining. His international best-selling, influential book Superintelligence examines how the brain alone led to the human dominance of the planet. Should something surpass human intelligence, we could then be reliant on it for our survival in the way gorillas now rely on humans more than other gorillas. Humanitys one advantage: were there first and get to set the conditions for intelligence to come.\nNick has also been listed twice on Foreign Policys Top 100 Global Thinkers list and featured on Prospect magazines World Thinkers list, one of the youngest people to appear.\nWe look forward to seeing you for Europe\u2019s number ONE enterprise IT event IP EXPO Europe 2016 and on 5-6 October at ExCel London.\nTags: Artificial Intelligence, IP EXPO Europe, Keynote, Nick Bostrom, Speakers",

        "raw_content": "The Company entered into an intermediation agreement with J.P. Morgan Ventures Energy Corporation (JPMVEC) on September 8, 2012, and sold refined products to JPMVEC under this agreement. On a daily basis, PES LLC sold the production of refined products and blendstocks from the Philadelphia refining complex as they were produced, delivered to the storage tanks, and legal title passed to JPMVEC. These transactions occurred at the daily market price for the respective products.\nOn October 7, 2014, JPMVEC assigned the intermediation agreement to Merrill Lynch Commodities (MLC). Under this agreement, the Company receives upfront cash payments for daily production sold to MLC through intermediation but prior to final sale to the customer. The upfront payments are deferred and classified as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets, until title has passed to the ultimate customer.\nFor further discussion of the above, see note 4, Intermediation Agreements.\nRevenues from the Company\u0092s intermediation agreements are reported on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as the Company is considered a principal in these agreements.\nThe Company may also purchase refined products from MLC under the intermediation agreement and sell the related products at its rack operation. The initial sale of refined products under the intermediation agreement and the subsequent buy-back of refined products for sale at the rack operation are considered to be made in contemplation of each other and, accordingly, are recorded net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and do not result in the recognition of a sale. Revenue from sales of refined products at the rack operation are recorded upon transfer of title to the ultimate customer.\nThe Company may also purchase refined products and sell the related refined products through the intermediation agreement. The Company acts as a principal in these transactions, taking title to the products and records revenue for the gross amount of the sales transactions, and records costs of purchases as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).\nThe Company may also enter into refined product buy/sell arrangements, which involve linked purchases and sales related to refined product sales contracts. The Company acts as an agent in these transactions, not taking title to the products and includes these transactions on a net basis in net sales in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).\nExcise taxes on sales of refined products that are collected from customers and remitted to various governmental agencies are reported on a net basis in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).\nDepreciation, Amortization, and Retirements\nPlant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 30 years for buildings and from 4 to 35 years for machinery and equipment.\nGains and losses on the disposal of fixed assets are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the period in which the item is disposed.\nAs part of the contribution of assets from Sunoco on September 8, 2012, the Company received the right to utilize underground storage caverns at Sunoco\u0092s Marcus Hook terminal at no cost for three years. The intangible asset was amortized on a straight-line basis over the three-year free rent period.",

        "raw_content": "This Is How Women Voted in the Midterms\u2014and What It Means for Election 2020\nWhen Hillary Clinton\u2019s second attempt to become America\u2019s first female president failed in 2016, a lot of women were angry\u2014at other women.\nMuch of the disappointment and finger-pointing that went on after the election that put Donald Trump in the White House was specifically aimed at white women: While Trump got only about 41 percent of the women\u2019s vote overall, a majority of white women\u201452 percent\u2014sided with him over Clinton at the polls.\nIn the weeks leading up the 2018 midterm elections, Republicans were fighting to maintain control of both the House and the Senate in a cycle that let voters make a judgment call not just about their lawmakers but about Trump\u2019s presidency. He literally told Americans they should \u201cpretend I\u2019m on the ballot.\u201d\nFast-forward to last week: Women go to the polls again\u2014and run for office\u2014in droves. As a whole, 59 percent say they supported their local Democratic candidate for the House, up from 51 percent in the 2014 midterms and 48 percent in 2010. Republicans manage to hang on to the Senate but lose the House, making it harder for Trump to deliver what he\u2019s promised. The head of the Democratic Party gives special thanks to women for their part in changing the game.\nThe headlines practically write themselves, right? Blue Wave! Pink Wave! Rainbow Wave! Shove over, 1992: This is the New Year of the Woman.\nBut dig deeper and you get a sharper, more complicated picture. There\u2019s no question this election was A Big Deal for women. The House will see a new record of at least 125 women in office in 2019, and women voters in specific demographics helped them get there.\nSome figures aren't surprising. Number crunching by the Center for American Women and Politics, for example, finds an overwhelming 92 percent of black women supported a Democrat for the House in Tuesday's election, as did 73 percent of Latinas. The nonprofit Voter Participation Center broadly credited a coalition of unmarried women, people of color, and millennials as key to flipping the House\u2014something VPC\u2019s Page Gardner forecasted in a preelection interviewwith Glamour.\nAmong white women, however, midterm exit polling shows a full-on split: As the Pew Research Center reports, 49 percent voted Democratic; 49 percent went Republican.\nAnd for those white female voters, education level is a bright, dividing line.\nThis year about 59 percent of college-educated white women supported a Democrat for the House. As Susan Carroll, senior scholar at CAWP, pointed out in a phone interview, that's a big jump from 2016, when not even half did the same. It was almost the reverse among white women with no college degree: Around 56 percent voted for Republican House candidates this year, according to Pew; just over 60 percent of that same group supported Trump in 2016.\nGiven that outcome in America's first return to the polls since Trump took office (and stirred women's rage by separating migrant mothers and children at the border and putting Judge Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court), a fresh surge of postelection finger-pointing was no surprise.\n\u201cWhat is wrong with white women?\u201d demanded columnist Moira Donegan of The Guardian. \u201cWhy do half of them so consistently vote for Republicans, even as the Republican party morphs into a monstrously ugly organization that is increasingly indistinguishable from a hate group?\u201d\nGender Watch, a nonpartisan research project tracking women in elections, quoted Melanye Price, an Africana Studies professor at Rutgers, as saying, \"In the last two years, progressive white women\u2019s sense of urgency has increased, but in many parts of this country, they have not been able to convince their sisters,\" and also that \"having to continually remind white women that fighting their own racial bigotry is as important as fucking the patriarchy is tiresome.\"\nWomen\u2019s March cofounder Breanne Butler put out a call for progressives to use the upcoming holidays to start helping white female relatives see the light ahead of the 2020 presidential race: \u201cHere's where you can talk to your aunt that gave money to her church's mission trip but fails to recognize the [Central American migrant] caravan,\u201d she tells Glamour via email. \u201cHere's where you can talk to your cousin who loves hip-hop music, but fails to see that black lives aren't valued.\u201d\nAnd Princeton University scholar Dara Strolovitch says while it\u2019s inspiring to see midterm wins by women, LGBT, and minority candidates, she has lingering concerns: \u201cAlthough the last two years have been a crash course [on] the implications of persistent and institutionalized misogyny,\u201d she writes in a postmidterms takeaway, \u201cmany straight white Christian women\u201d may not only accept what could be seen as antifeminist attitudes but embrace them.\nIn this or any election, naturally, there\u2019s a big, big difference between spotting trends in how women voted and establishing why they made their choices. The decision may come down to party loyalty, feelings about a specific candidate, a national issue, or a local problem. And of course, Carroll notes, \u201cthe culture of the [voter\u2019s] state really does matter.\u201d\nMeanwhile, even as liberal analysts and activists lament some of Tuesday\u2019s outcomes, not only the President, but groups like Susan B. Anthony List, which promotes antiabortion women candidates for public office, are claiming victory.\n\u201cIn 2010, there was not a single pro-life woman in the U.S. Senate. Next year there will be at least four pro-life women senators, and five if pro-life Martha McSally wins in Arizona,\u201d SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser said in a postelection statement that also applauded the success of antiabortion ballot measures in Alabama and West Virginia. Additionally, Dannenfelser cheered the reelection of Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, a woman she praised as having \u201csigned the most aggressive pro-life state legislation to date.\u201d\nElsewhere, the conservative Independent Women\u2019s Forum posted a rundown on its website of liberal candidates who lost despite their celebrity endorsements, and Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeted that the one-two punch of Trump\u2019s persuasive campaigning and a good GOP ground game \u201cturned the forecasted Democrat tsunami into a ripple.\u201d\nThe political divisions laid bare in the 2018 midterms, where some close contests still remain undecided, are definitely not limited to women: While 59 percent of female voters supported Democratic House candidates, just over half of men voted Republican. That went up to 60 percent for white men, Pew calculated\u2014and even higher, to 66 percent, for white guys with no college degree.\nThe divide between men and women voters extended to other other races, CAWP finds, including 20 of 21 Senate battles and nine of 11 governor races as of last week.\nIn contests that made national news, CAWP\u2019s tally shows, women were likelier to go with the Democrat\u2014win or lose: More than half of women voters supported Democrat Andrew Gillum's unsuccessful bid to become Florida\u2019s first African American governor and Texas Representative Beto O'Rourke's failed challenge to incumbent Senator Ted Cruz. Higher percentages of women than men also sided with incumbent Democratic Sens. Claire McCaskill of Missouri and Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, who both lost to male Republican challengers.\nThe Democratic nominee in one of the country\u2019s hottest Senate contests, Nevada\u2019s Jacky Rosen, beat Republican incumbent Dean Heller with the support of 60 percent of women voters\u2014versus just 42 percent of men. In Tennessee just over half of female voters helped make Marsha Blackburn the first woman to represent the state in the Senate.\nOn the plus side for better female representation in Congress, Carroll says, \u201cThis is going to be the largest-ever freshman class of women in the House,\u201d but there's a lesson to keep in mind from 1992\u2019s Year of the Woman, she cautions: Some of those female candidates won in politically mixed or Republican-leaning districts and went right on to lose their seats in 1994.\nThe Class of 2018 may face a similar challenge: \u201cThey have to run for reelection in two years, [and] who knows what the electoral context will be? It may not be as favorable for Democrats as it was this year,\u201d Carroll says. \u201cYou don\u2019t know.\u201d\nAlso unknown: whether more female voters will veer to the left in the run-up to the 2020 presidential cycle\u2014or if white women will stay on the fence, a divided part of the electorate served by a divided government in a divided America.",

        "raw_content": "A closer look at the legal and political brawl over the Trump immigration order\nAn executive order signed on Friday afternoon by President Donald Trump sparked a weekend of protests at major airports around the country, as immigration officials detained dozens of foreign travelers who had already been approved for travel to the United States, and a series of federal judges barred the feds from deporting those who had been detained.\nLet\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s involved and what\u2019s at stake.\n1. Who are the people who have been stopped at airports? The people who have been detained are foreign travelers who did have valid documents to get into the United States. The weekend controversy does not involve people who decided one day to buy a plane ticket from somewhere around the world and fly to the United States, hoping to get in. These people had a proper visa and valid entry documents for their trip, but got caught up in the enforcement of the new Trump executive order. It resulted in scenes like this when someone was finally released.\nA woman detained for hours after arriving from Iraq is reunited with her son, who is in the United States Army, according to @RepJeffries pic.twitter.com/I4w5BGIHVP\n\u2014 katie honan (@katie_honan) January 29, 2017\n2. Major airports became the center of protests. Airports like JFK outside New York, Dulles outside Washington, LAX and other airports that hosted international arrivals became ground zero for a sudden protest against the Trump order. But it was more than just a demonstration, as teams of lawyers descended on those airports, setting up temporary work facilities, filing habeas corpus petitions and demanding meetings with those who had been detained.\nDulles Poster of the Day goes to: pic.twitter.com/KJrrnyjCf6\n\u2014 Justin Eisele (@Jteisele) January 29, 2017\n3. What have the courts done? Federal judges at least five states, California, New York, Virginia, Washington State and Massachusetts have all weighed in on how to handle people with valid documents who were stopped at airports \u2013 some judges issued a temporary stay, preventing those who were detained from being forced to get on a plane back to their country of origin. Those rulings certainly don\u2019t mean that President Trump won\u2019t be able to enforce his immigration order, as it only touches a small part of the process. It\u2019s a reminder that just as the courts got in the way of President Obama\u2019s immigration actions, they can also do the same with President Trump.\n4. Some people may get to try again to enter the U.S. A federal judge in California has ordered the Trump Administration to allow someone \u2013 who was already stopped at a U.S. airport, and sent back to the Middle East \u2013 to fly back to this country, and be admitted. Ali Khoshbakhti Vayeghan had arrived on Saturday, and was detained by immigration authorities at Los Angeles International Airport; before lawyers could get a hearing to obtain his freedom, he was put back on a plane to Dubai, and told to return to his home country of Iran. But a federal judge says the U.S. must allow Ali Khoshbakhti Vayeghan to return to the U.S.\n5. Is this a Muslim ban or not? For critics of President Trump, that\u2019s exactly what this move is, a ban on Muslims coming into the United States. But that\u2019s not exactly what is happening. Yes, individuals from Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen have their refugee applications on hold, while the feds look at improving vetting procedures. But there are some other big Muslim nations that aren\u2019t included, like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Five of the seven countries named above actually were part of current law \u2013 a bill passed during the Obama Administration. President Trump said on Sunday, the media is not telling the truth about his plans.\n6. The Trump plan would not have stopped some attacks. As the White House pushed back against critics of the President\u2019s executive order, top aide Kellyanne Conway specifically said that such a plan would have prevented several terror attacks that took place in the U.S. during the Obama Administration. But when you look at several of those incidents, they don\u2019t easily translate into any assurances that the San Bernardino shooters, the Boston Marathon bombers, or the Orlando shooter would have been stopped. The Orlando gunman who shot up the Pulse nightclub was born in the United States; the Boston Marathon bombers were originally from Russia, and the San Bernardino shooters had ties to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia \u2013 none of those countries are on the Trump list.\nConway cites San Bernardino, Orlando and Boston attackers to defend EO. None of them would have been stopped by current ban.\n\u2014 Abby D. Phillip (@abbydphillip) January 29, 2017\n7. Some Republicans don\u2019t get on board with Trump. While there were certainly Democrats who attacked the details of the Trump order, there were also some Republicans also raising red flags. Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) labeled it a \u201cbroad and confusing\u201d order; his colleague from the Volunteer State, Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) said it had been \u201cpoorly implemented.\u201d Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) said the orders were \u201chastily issued.\u201d Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) was more direct, saying the Trump plan had not been \u201cproperly vetted.\u201d Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) said it was too \u201cbroad,\u201d a word that was used by other GOP lawmakers as well. But it is important to note that most Republicans seemed to be behind the Trump move \u2013 though they thought the roll out was a bit messy.\nFrom GOP Sen. Corker, Rep. Labrador, Sen. Lankford, a theme emerges: Trump is right on refugees; roll out was bad and order needs re-write\n\u2014 Paul Singer (@singernews) January 29, 2017\n8. Already one change made in the Trump plan. At first, travelers who had valid \u201cgreen cards,\u201d which allow you to permanently reside and work in the United States, were being stopped at airports. On Sunday, Trump Administration officials made clear that Green Card holders would no longer be stopped, even if they are from the seven countries that have had refugee admissions put on hold. One thing that is still unclear is how dual citizens are treated, especially if they are from one of those seven nations originally, as the full meaning of this order is still being hashed out.\nSecretary of DHS Kelly has exempted all lawful permanent residents (green card holders) from exec order. WH says they are \"rewriting\" order\n\u2014 Damon Silvers (@DamonSilvers) January 30, 2017\n9. Didn\u2019t President Obama do something similar? All through the weekend, people told me on social media that President Trump was on solid ground, because President Obama had used his authority to block Iraqis from coming to the U.S. But even some in the Republican Party saw this as a broader move, since it hit not only refugees, but also lawful permanent residents, and non-immigrant family members. \u201cFrom a legal standpoint, it\u2019s night and day,\u201d said Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI), who has turned into one of the most frequent critics in Congress of the new President.\nImmigrants (incl. lawful permanent residents), nonimmigrants & refugees from seven countries is not \"similar\" to refugees from one country.\n10. The Bottom Line \u2013 Trump moves ahead with new immigration rules. Yes, it may have sparked a weekend of protests. Yes, the President may have had setbacks in some federal courts, and had some in his own party raise red flags. But as the new work week begins, President Trump\u2019s effort to tighten reviews for refugees and others entering the United States was moving forward. \u201cEarly wins against Trump immigration order may not last,\u201d read the headline Sunday night on Politico. That\u2019s an important point to remember. The ultimate battleground for this may be the courts, instead of the political arena.\nAnd as the President tweeted on Monday morning, he is not backing down. \u201cThis was a big part of my campaign.\u201d\n< Trump defends immigration order as courts put some deportations on hold\nTrump issues executive order forcing feds to reduce regulations >",

Its winegrowing tradition dates back to the times of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Investing all their efforts and skills, the islanders succeeded in turning grapes into wines that are among the best island wines of Croatia.\nWarm, dry summers and mild, rainy winters and a high insulation of 2730 hours of sunshine per year (or 7.5 hours per day) are particularly favorable for winegrowing. The precipitation calendar is also favorable towards the quality of the grapes, along with the low humidity during the grape growing and ripening period, while being unfavorable conditions for plant diseases to develop.\nSeveral grape cultivars are used in wine production, primarily Plavac Mali and Plavac Veliki red wine grape varieties and Bogdanu\u0161a, Mara\u0161tina and Pr\u010d white wine grape varieties. There are also Drneku\u0161ica, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Po\u0161ip, Ku\u010d, Muscatel and several other old autochthonous cultivars.\nTop-quality wines of the island of Hvar are produced from the Plavac Mali variety grown on the steep southern slopes of the island. Quality wines are produced from grapes grown on the central longitudinal ridge, at an altitude of about 500 meters above sea level and on the northern part of the island.\nThe Plavac grapes are well known from Trogir to Ston; however, those grown on the island of Hvar are indeed special. The dark blue grapes ripen in vineyards that are exposed to the sun longer than on any other island. The composition of soil, especially between Zavala and Veli Biskup by Sv. Nedjelja on the southern part of the island, contributes to the production of full-bodied ruby-colored wines.\nThe northern part of the island is characterized by complex topography \u2013 there are fields, hills and mounts favorable for growing Plavac grapes. Famous winegrowing locations in Pitve, Vrisnik, Svri\u010de and Vrbanj give fruit that produce pleasant, fresh and balanced Plavac quality wines.\nAlongside the top-quality and quality Plavac wines, there are also white wines and pro\u0161ek (dessert wine made from dried wine grapes) produced on the island of Hvar. For this we can thank the esteemed winemakers who cherish the tradition of their fathers and of the island, and invest not only their enthusiasm and effort, but also their knowledge in oenology.\nWe would like to invite all fine wine lovers (and all those yet to become wine lovers) to visit the winegrowers of Hvar and their taverns. Cheers!",

        "title": "Cocteau Twins interview (November 1985) [Thought Palace]",
        "raw_content": "Cocteau Twins interview (November 1985)\nThis is one of my favorite interviews ever, and it reminds me of a long-gone era when the Cocteau Twins mattered, mattered really deeply, and were making music I could barely believe possible. Music I was not the only one to find wholly impossible to describe\u2026\n[Typed in by hand from a crumbly old copy of the November 16, 1985 issue of Melody Maker]\nHow do you interview THE COCTEAU TWINS? Steve Sutherland, who considers them to be something like the voice of God, doesn\u2019t know. Well, he sat down and talked to them for a bit, and this is what happened.\n\u201cIn the best of all possible worlds,\u201d said Robin, \u201cthis wouldn\u2019t be happening.\u201d Hold it right there. I\u2019ve read this before. I don\u2019t want any more.\nNo buts. I\u2019m determined that this will not be another Cocteau Twins interview about how The Cocteau Twins hate interviews because that, after all, after hours of agonised silence and blank incomprehension, is all that anyone\u2019s ever gleaned from this lot on paper. I won\u2019t sit down and discuss this again. I won\u2019t attempt to defend the pathologically rigid rigmarole of the rock\u2019n\u2019roll interview, nor will I perpetrate it further.\nSo what shall I do, Robin? What shall I do? And what will I get? Will I get anything? Or is there nothing there to get? Nothing at all?\n\u201cWell, we\u2019re not divs but people make us out to be \u2026 we come over like \u2026\u201d\nYes, I understand that I don\u2019t understand.\nSOME JUSTIFICATION\nThe Cocteau Twins make my favourite music in the whole wide world ever and, on November 16 and 22, they release two four-track EPs. I want to talk about them, but I know it\u2019s no good. They want them well treated because they envisage a Cocteau Twins backlash on the horizon and they don\u2019t think it\u2019s fair. Just because they don\u2019t fit in, folks think they refuse to fit in but it\u2019s not the same thing at all. There\u2019s nothing willful about The Cocteaus\u2019 refusal to play along, they just don\u2019t because they do what they do, that\u2019s all.\nHey, they live on our planet, believe it or not. They eat, they drink, they see what we see and hear what we hear. It\u2019s just that what they create when they\u2019re locked away somewhere has no bearing on any of this whatsoever. My task, I suppose, is to reconcile this into some sort of sense but all I can come up with is intricate babble which, even in the act of praising, seems to tarnish the pure simplicity of what The Cocteaus do.\nI\u2019ll admit, at this point, that I was going to wax all wonderfully lyrical about the new Cocteau Twins stuff. I was going to construct some elaborate review of Tiny Dynamine (\u201cPink Orange Red\u201d, \u201cRibbed and Veined\u201d, \u201cPlain Tiger\u201d and \u201cSultitan Itan\u201d), some glowing testimony to Echoes In a Shallow Bay (\u201cGreat Spangled Fritillary\u201d, \u201cMelonella\u201d, \u201cPale Clouded White\u201d and \u201cEggs and Their Shells\u201d) but I realised that all I\u2019d be doing was conjuring fantasies, evolving mythologies and warping expectations so, at the risk of encouraging accusations of lethargy and cop-out I say this: Buy these records, I think they\u2019re brilliant. They exist.\nWhy am I squirming? Here\u2019s my problem: The Cocteau Twins can\u2019t talk about their music because there\u2019s nothing to say and I can\u2019t write about it because, as it\u2019s instrumental with vocal impressions, all I can produce is mind\u2019s-eye gibberish. And believe you me, I\u2019ve said some pretty embarrassing stuff about this lot in the past. Stuff, incidentally, that I stick by.\n\u201cThe things you\u2019re allowed to write \u2019\n\u201cAnd another time you said I hadn\u2019t developed much further than some Banshees album and that we were too loud. That was insulting. The idea of three people totally stationary on stage with no affiliation at all to rock\u2019n\u2019roll making the loudest fucking noise you\u2019ve ever heard kind of appeals.\u201d\n\u201cAnd that thing you said to Robert Smith about his lipstick,\u201d Liz is trembling.\n\u201cYou said that Liz Fraser wants to know why you wear your lipstick like that. That was very naughty of you Steve, very, very naughty. I was so embarrassed.\u201d\nContrary to common belief, The Cocteau Twins care. A lot.\nTHE UNMENTIONABLE MENTIONED\nThe Cocteau Twins don\u2019t exactly scream at you to ask them about their sex lives or the colour of their socks so it all comes down to self-justification and that nebulous area where you\u2019ve no idea what you\u2019re talking about or what will come out and the smallest detail assumes the stature of enigma. Or\u2026\nRobin: \u201cI\u2019m still completely at a loss to understand what people want to know. I\u2019ll tell all. We do tell all. That\u2019s the thing. I can\u2019t understand, what more can I say?\u201d\nSome minor hack from the NME spent seven hours grilling them last spring, searching for the Holy Grail, seeking to establish his own reputation as Raider Of The Liz Bark.\n\u201cHe completely fucked himself up,\u201d Liz laughs and laughs.\nSimon: \u201cHe was so frustrated. He actually admitted he was getting nowhere. He\u2019d obviously come with this plan of getting us softened up with all these questions about football and films and all the things we like that would make us think he was a really good bloke and then, wham!, in with the big questions at the end. What he didn\u2019t quite understand is that there are no big questions and there are no big answers.\nWhy? Why do you sound like The Cocteau Twins?\nROBIN\u2019S BIG ANSWER\nTHEY CONFESS\nRobin: \u201cIt almost gets to the stage where you just want to turn round to somebody and say \u2018Yeah, I\u2019m really magical and mysterious, that\u2019s what I think about myself. I\u2019m weird and obscure and it rubs off on the music\u2026\u2019\u201d\nSimon: \u201cYeah, we\u2019re religious, spiritual\u2026\u201d\nLiz: \u201cWould you like some tea or coffee just now?\u201d\nRobin: \u201cThere\u2019s some tins aren\u2019t there? I\u2019ll have another beer.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cYou\u2019ll want a fuckin\u2019 straw with it next \u2014 get you pissed quicker.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cGot any gin?\u201d\nLiz: \u201cUm \u2026 er \u2026 NO! I distinctly remember you finishing it off last night. Don\u2019t drink\u2026\u201d\nRobin: \u201cBut I\u2019m getting my haircut tonight.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cYes, I know. You\u2019ll fall asleep and wake up with a skinhead \u2014 that\u2019ll fuckin\u2019 sort you out. You\u2019ll never drink again.\u201d\nSmall, very funny, and very, very shy.\nAt the photo studio, Liz is being made-up, having her face and hair done. By her side, by the mirror, is a note pad into which she jots every later of foundation, every tint of eyeshadow for further reference.\n\u201cThat\u2019s typical,\u201d says Robin. \u201cDid you notice at home by the record player, there\u2019s a piece of paper with instructions on it about how the stereo works, step by step. And by the video there\u2019s another list of how to work it. And she wants to learn to drive \u2014 can you imagine that?\u201d\nOh yes, a very Liz thing to do.\nFat, funny, delightfully sarcastic, he crimps his hair to stop it looking pubic.\nThis thin guy with glasses comes up to him in the Croydon Underground, brandishing a poster advertising the 4AD night and asking for an autograph. Robin looks him up and down, snorts his disapproval and begins to read it out.\n\u201cXymox, is that us?\u201d\n\u201cWolfgang Press. Is that us?\u201d\n\u201cDif Juz. Is that us?\u201d\n\u201cWell then, shouldn\u2019t you be going to get their autographs?\u201d\nThe bloke slinks off, bemused. Robin turns to me and says: \u201cIt\u2019s bad enough when they want you to sign Cocteau Twins stuff.\u201d\nThat\u2019s a very Robin thing to do.\nA genuinely nice and sincere sort of guy.\nSimon was \u201cdisgusted\u201d by the Banshees at Hammersmith Odeon. He\u2019d seen them three or four times before and considered this \u201cheavy metal\u201d. Worst of all, though, he considered the encore \u201cdishonest\u201d.\nThat\u2019s a very Simon thing to say.\nWell, what was there left? The personality angle wasn\u2019t paying dividends because, as the antithesis of all they are, it couldn\u2019t. The enormous review wasn\u2019t on either \u2014 all that verbiage trying to describe something defiantly inarticulate. No, I was left with flotsam, with various meets in various places, with circumstantial evidence. Whether it comes any closer to anything, whether it helps, I don\u2019t know but anyway\u2026\nMeet one: Liz and Robin\u2019s flat in Chiswick. Ground floor. Clean and bare with a Siamese kitten called Otto (after the punk in Repo Man ) who bites and scratches and has never heard of house-training. No books about so no clues there. A record player. A video. Lots of videos. A photo of Lillian Gish in the toilet. The door handle comes off in your hand and you have to keep the lid down or the cat might fall in the bowl.\nMeet two: Riverside for That Petrol Emotion.\nMeet three: The photo session in Covent Garden. A small studio and a pint or two in the pub. (Liz is on cider and Babycham, fact-fiends.)\nMeet four: Simon sees the Banshees at Hammersmith Odeon.\nMeet five: 4AD night at Croydon Underground \u2014 very much the visiting stars. Robin hates it.\nRobin: \u201cYou can\u2019t push progression, you can\u2019t plan it. Well, if you did, you\u2019d sound really contrived. I\u2019m just starting to realise now that there\u2019s a difference between Garlands , Lullabies and Peppermint Pig but it was probably all very evident to someone who listened to it at the time. We\u2019re so close to it, we can\u2019t tell.\nTheir last album, Treasure , was the sweetest luxury, a placid lagoon of dreams after the exotic carnival of Head Over Heels . Ivo once told me that he discerned Heels being born of the love affair between Robin and Liz whereas where Treasure came from was a marvelous mystery.\nSimon: \u201cI can see what you\u2019re saying but \u2026 no.\u201d\nIf anybody around pop today is enjoying the fact that language obscures as much (and as well) as it reveals its intentions, it\u2019s Liz Fraser. Her lyrics are noise games, not nonsense but emotion liberated from cliche. When she sings, my world moves and it means something beyond and without all the blasted, blighted baggage of linguistic nostalgia.\nShe uses words but the words never matter, their sounds carry the fullest impact, her voice \u2014 the most desolate ever recorded \u2014 cuts the crap but can\u2019t avoid it. We can\u2019t handle The Cocteau Twins, we don\u2019t possess the critical apparatus to do them justice. It\u2019s no big deal on their behalf, no deliberate setting themselves apart from the mainstream, no arrogant isolationism. It\u2019s simply that the channels we stomp down to beat pop to a pulp and render it comfortable and comprehensible don\u2019t lead us anywhere near The Cocteau Twins.\nWe don\u2019t touch them and yet, still we try. In Japan, for instance, they\u2019ve published lyric sheets with all the albums, even renaming Treasure at whim The Woman Who The Gods Loved .\nRobin: \u201cTell me if any of these words are what Liz is singing, right? I\u2019m not joking. \u2018Let us rock you so / Rock you so good.\u2019 \u2018The wave of the earth has got me all fooled now.\u2019 \u2018Should have fixed it before it floated away.\u2019\u201d\nLiz: \u201cOh that\u2019s fucking disgusting \u2026 disgusting. They must think we\u2019re a bunch o\u2019 perverts or something.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cTake this fish / Harder than roe / Who sauntered away.\u2019\u201d\nLiz: \u201cJesus!\u201d\nRobin: \u201cJulianne was first called a genius / Julianne a genius too / Our song is framed by a genius / Suddenly she got up and turned it on.\u2019\u201d\nLiz: \u201cDefinitely drug-induced hysteria.\u201d\nRobin: \u201c\u2018I don\u2019t mend no fence.\u2019\u201d\nSimon: \u201c\u2018I\u2019m a prisoner of the fence.\u2019\u201d\nRobin: \u201cLook at the sleeve notes. It says here that The Cocteau Twins are three girls, right? And that I sing all the backing vocals on the LP and that my backing vocals are \u2018psychedelic but never freaky\u2019.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cBloody hell!\u201d\nALL THE THINGS THEY LIKE\nSimon supports Tottenham Hotspur and owes me a fiver.\nCrime and the City Solution \u2014 especially Roland Howard and his brother\u2019s way of smoking fags. Dif Juz \u2014 \u201cbest group in the world\u201d. Steve Martin \u2014 Robin\u2019s got all his films plus albums. Bedazzled , a Sixties spoof on Faust starring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore \u2014 \u201cThe best film ever\u201d (Robin). Pale Rider , although Liz wanted to see Peter Pan . The Philadelphia Story , on the box recently.\nSimon: \u201cWhat a film.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cYeah, we just saw the end of it.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cWe saw the whole fucking thing! We saw it from five minutes after it started.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cOh, did we? I thought we only saw the end. It did seem to last for a long time though.\u201d\nSimon: \u201cThey\u2019re so good.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cYeah, but their records are all becoming a formula. They\u2019ve had brilliant tunes but they\u2019re all Spector/Beach Boysy-type tunes with loads of feedback on top. \u201dJust Like Honey\u201d is the same, just toned down a bit. I\u2019d like to mix one of their records\u2026\u201d\nThat Petrol Emotion: Robin would like to produce them.\nLiz: \u201cI want to go see them. I think they\u2019re really great. I really do.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cI had a ticket to see them once but it was too foggy and all the trains were canceled.\u201d\nSo he decided to form his own band\u2026\nSimon: \u201cBecause you couldn\u2019t see The Damned\u2026\u201d\nRobin: \u201cMaybe you could help us write a legend!\u201d\nALL THE THINGS THEY HATE\nRambo \u2014 \u201cRubbish! Have you seen it? There\u2019s this bit where he comes out of this wall of mud and a few seconds later he\u2019s clean. And the girl in the jungle with all the make-up on \u2026 I\u2019ve seen loads of films lately which have been really good but the endings are just moralistic, patronising, telling the audience what the whole film\u2019s been about. Ken Russell\u2019s Crimes Of Passion is just like that, it\u2019s appalling, absolutely disgusting, like being at a dirty movie. The sex scenes go on for about 20 minutes and everybody else in the cinema was an old man with a raincoat over his lap \u2014 I was thinking \u201dHang on a minute, I shouldn\u2019t be here.\u201d\nDesperately Seeking Susan ?\nSimon: \u201cI don\u2019t want to see it because I don\u2019t want to like Madonna. I actually like not liking her, thinking she\u2019s a real slagbag.\u201d\nSigue Sigue Sputnik?\nSimon: \u201cThey\u2019re dreadful, abysmal. They won\u2019t do anything will they?\u201d\nWith a good producer, a Chris Thomas, someone who can hone down their eight minutes of noise to three minutes of melody\u2026\nRobin: \u201cThey look so silly. Mind you, for that sort of money, even you\u2019d dress up, look silly and make bad records wouldn\u2019t you?\u201d\nMERE MORTAL CONCERNS\nSelf parody?\nRobin: \u201cIt happened to us about a year and a half ago. It happens to everybody. You can\u2019t do anything about it, you can\u2019t deliberately stop and change. You\u2019ve got to work your way through it.\u201d\n4AD?\nRobin: \u201cIt\u2019s been good to learn about the music business this way, to learn about all the nasty little things that I don\u2019t think we\u2019d have learned from a major because we\u2019d just have been exploited straight away. I don\u2019t think we\u2019d get ourselves into that situation now because we\u2019re older and wiser. It actually seems quite an appealing idea to screw a major for as much as you could possibly get and then just do nothing because you know how corrupt the whole thing is and how everyone else seems to do it.\u201d\nSimon: \u201cIt\u2019s all relative. These groups who get signed for 250,000, it doesn\u2019t mean \u2018We\u2019re giving you 250,000, go and buy yourself a house and lots of cars.\u2019 It means \u2018Here\u2019s a loan until you make your records.\u2019 We don\u2019t get very much money and the records sell.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cWe don\u2019t take big advances and we recoup so we don\u2019t owe anybody anything. I\u2019d rather be in that situation. Funnily enough, Liz and my biggest form of income\u2019s Garlands because it cost 800 to make so that recouped long, long ago. Our budgets for making records are ridiculously small, not \u2019cause we\u2019re mean or we rush things, it\u2019s just that we don\u2019t really take very long to do it.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cWhen we were in Los Angeles, Robin found a \u2026 well, you tell it Robin.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cNo, you tell it.\u201d\nLiz: \u201cWe found a bookmatch of the hotel John Belushi died in. Well, when we found it we didn\u2019t know that but then we found out but Robin lost it.\u201d\nRobin: \u201cThat\u2019s a Liz anecdote.\u201d\nThe Cocteau Twins toured Japan this year, rode the bullet train, felt restricted by the cities and affronted by the Westernization. They also played in America where they were constantly asked when and why they formed This Mortal Coil and where, against their better judgment, they released a \u201cBest Of\u201d LP.\nExtra-curricular duties include building a 16-track studio in Maida Vale, dismantling and relocating it in Acton, and producing Felt, Dif Juz and the Wolfgang Press.\nTiny Dynamine and Echoes In a Shallow Bay were recorded under no pressure and were never intended for release. The tracks evolved into two EPs because \u201cWhen you do an LP, it\u2019s like a statement of what you\u2019ve been doing, a concerted effort. This is more complacent probably.\u201d Robin laughs. \u201cThey\u2019re not singles, there are no seven inches obviously, they\u2019re 12 inches, they\u2019re not long versions of anything, they\u2019re not remixes. They\u2019re just a bunch of songs, EPs in the old sense of the word. No one song is any more important than any other. People think we\u2019re being weird or something but we\u2019re not\u2026\u201d\nThere\u2019s a collaboration on the cards between The Cocteaus and Harold Budd, the avant-gardist they met in America. He\u2019s about to send them backing tapes and vice-versa and the cross-cultural experiment may well be filmed for Channel 4.\nAND WHAT WILL NEVER BE\nThe Cocteaus were asked to appear on Wogan but, much to their regret, it was turned down on their behalf.\nRobin: \u201cObviously a revival, probably American. I can\u2019t understand it. Everybody took the piss out of the Mod revival but nobody\u2019s taking the piss out of this blatant Byrds revival. Everybody\u2019s taking it seriously.\u201d\nSo where does that leave The Cocteau Twins?\n\u201cIn 10 years time, there will be a Cocteau Twins revival.\u201d\nIf the process of interview is to ascertain some truth, to nudge some reality, to realise there really aren\u2019t any answers, then I\u2019ve failed. If the essence of this piece was to avoid an obsessive autopsy of The Cocteau Twins\u2019 problematic relationship to the interview, I\u2019ve let you down badly. It\u2019s here, it\u2019s inescapable and I\u2019m circling, searching for something I can\u2019t define, struggling to discover whether that there isn\u2019t anything to discover is the big fact or just a conveniently mystical cop-out.\nCertainly the people I met and the records I hear don\u2019t match up too well, don\u2019t fit. I\u2019m speaking of what stubbornly won\u2019t be spoken of and it\u2019s the best I can do to tell you that, of all the outfits I\u2019ve ever met, the lives of the characters of The Cocteau Twins are the least informative when applied to their music. And naturally, in saying that, I open two options, each equally inappropriate: they\u2019re not fakers, they wear no masks, they hide nowhere, nor are they recipients of some mysterious muse, they don\u2019t act as ciphers for some spiritual genius descending from the aether.\nThe Cocteau Twins just go and do and they don\u2019t know why so why the hell should I?\n(IN) THE BEGINNING (WAS THE WORD)\n\u201cThat was the shittiest interview we\u2019ve ever done\u2026\u201d\n\u201cBut we said nothing, talked about nothing\u2026\u201d\n\u201cBut what are you gonna write about?\u201d\nOh, I\u2019ll make it up. I\u2019ll write about you. I\u2019ll think of something.\n\u201cBut that means we\u2019re in your hands, we\u2019re at your mercy\u2026\u201d\nAha, well the hack always has the last word. This is it\u2026\nCopyright \u00a9 1985 IPC Magazines, Ltd.\nReproduced without permission.\nmusic Published on May 19, 2004 Jens Alfke",

        "raw_content": "Activity-based learning: A way of learning by doing activities. The rules of language are looked at either after the activity or not at all.\nCommunicative Approach: A way of teaching which is based on the principle that learning a language successfully involves communication rather than just memorising a series of rules. Teachers try to focus on meaningful communication, rather than focusing on accuracy and correcting mistakes all the time. See Grammar-Translation method.\nConcept checking: The technique of asking concept questions or other techniques to check that students have understood a new structure or item of lexis. A concept question is a question asked by the teacher to make sure that a student has understood the meaning of new language, e.g. the new language structure \u2013 used to \u2013 He used to live in Paris. Concept question \u2013 Does he live in Paris now? Answer \u2013 No.\nConcept questions: see concept checking.\nContent-based learning: When a subject, e.g. maths or history, is taught through the second language.\nContextualise: To put new language into a situation that shows what it means, e.g. The music in the disco was very loud. See set the scene, context.\nDefinition noun, define verb: An explanation of the meaning of a word, e.g. in a dictionary.\nElicit: When a teacher asks careful questions to get students to give an answer.\nEmphasis noun, emphasise verb: When special force is given to a word when it is said because the word is important, e.g. I want to start the lesson at six o\u2019clock not seven.\nFunctional Approach: A way of teaching which uses a syllabus based on functions rather than on grammatical structures.\nGesture noun + verb: A movement with part of the body, e.g. hand, head.\nGrammar-Translation method: A way of teaching in which students study grammar and translate words into their own language. They do not practise communication and there is little focus on speaking. A teacher presents a grammar rule and vocabulary lists and then students translate a written text from their own language into the second language. See communicative approach.\nGuided discovery: A way of teaching in which teachers provide examples of the target language and then guide the students to work out the language rules for themselves.\nIce-breaker: An introductory activity that a teacher uses at the start of a new course so that students can get to know each other.\nIllustrate meaning: To show what something means, e.g. I was nervous when I got on the plane because I hate flying.\nIntroductory activity: An activity which takes place at the beginning of a lesson. Introductory activities often include warmers and lead-ins.\nLexical Approach: A way of analysing language that is based on lexical items such as words, multi-word units, collocations and fixed expressions rather than grammatical structures. Some ELT books and materials organise their syllabuses around the Lexical Approach.\nMeaningful: 1) something which shows the meaning of language, 2) something which has a value for students in the real world.\nMime noun + verb: Body movements used to convey meaning without using words.\nPresentation noun, present verb: To introduce new language.\nPresentation, Practice and Production (PPP): A way of teaching new language in which the teacher presents the language, gets students to practise it in exercises or other controlled practice activities and then asks students to use the same language in a communicative way in their practice.\nSituational presentation: A way of presenting new language through a simple story or situation. The teacher may use pictures or other aids to help them create the situation.\nStructural Approach: A way of teaching which uses a syllabus based on grammatical structures. The order that the language is presented is usually based on how difficult it is thought to be.\nTask-based Learning (TBL): A way of teaching in which the teacher gives students meaningful tasks to do. The teacher may ask students to think about the language they have used to do the tasks, but the main focus for students is on the task itself. Project work is task-based.\nTeaching strategy: The procedure or approach used by a teacher in the classroom, e.g. a teacher may choose to give thinking time to students before they speak.\nTest-teach-test: A way of teaching new language. The teacher asks students to do a task without giving them any help, to see how well they know a certain piece of language (this is the first test). The teacher then presents the new language to the students (teach), then asks the students to do another task using the new language correctly (this is the second test).\nTotal Physical Response (TPR): A way of teaching in which the teacher presents language items as instructions and the students have to do exactly what the teacher tells them, e.g. Open the window! Stand up! This method is very meaningful and good for beginners when they start to learn a new language, as they have a silent period and can make fast progress.\nWarmer noun, warm up verb: An activity that a teacher uses at the beginning of a lesson to give the class more energy.

The park's maintenance and development are fee supported through adult softball and youth soccer leagues. The park consists of seven athletic playing fields that require reservations, a small fishing lake, a seven acre dog off-leash area, picnic shelter, playground and a picturesque walking trail.\nThe development of this beautiful park utilized a unique combination of funding sources. The parkland was purchased in 1971 with Land and Water Conservation Funds from the U.S. Department of Interior and was matched by the District with local financing. The park was dedicated in 1981 and named in honor of Thomas S. Stoll who was instrumental in the park's development and had died the previous year while serving as chairman of the District\u2019s Board of Park and Recreation Commissioners.",

        "raw_content": "Discover How Shared Coworking Space Fosters Productivity Over Other New York Offices for Rent\nCoworking has many advantages for individuals who currently work at home and for startups. In places like New York City and San Francisco, where traditional office space is very expensive, shared office space is an increasingly popular option with added benefits, in addition to affordability.\nFor startups and freelancers, shared office space offers considerable networking opportunities with other professions in common areas and cafes. A web developer may find the person sitting next to them needs a website, while a startup may find the ideal person to market their new service in the lounge.\nWorking in a professional environment makes freelancers more productive. Getting dressed, instead of staying in pajamas, and getting away from all the distractions at home fosters efficiency and offers a better balance between work and family. Being surrounded by peers in a coworking environments also eliminates the isolation some people experience when working at home each day.\nIn New York City, Workville, which features all types of shared office space, is conveniently located in a luxury office building on Broadway. Since there is 24 hour access, night owls can work when they are the most productive and everyone else can stagger their work hours to miss rush hour traffic.\nAt Workville, the bright, sunny spaces are divided into private offices, dedicated desks and open coworking sections. With three terraces and a lounge area, there is always a space to take a break and meet new friends. Modern conference rooms are available by the hour for meetings and everyone enjoys a fast Internet connection and fresh coffee.

The presence of bad press could damage the performance of a company since most customers don\u2019t have the time to verify whether allegations are true or just a scheme to bring your business to its toes. Good news is that you can use video to work on online reputation.\nWhen you explore search engines, you will find many blogs with the kind of information you may be looking. Most of these websites promote businesses and to engage customers better, they have turned to the use of videos. If you don\u2019t believed video is the best way to deal with online reputation, the statistics you will find depending on the quality of video made will edify you.\nUp to 62% of viewers will leave negative remarks if the video uploaded is of low quality or represents something they think does not add much value to them. However, for a high-quality video, more than 74% percent of viewers will leave good remarks and will want to learn more about the company, cites a Business2Community article. These are the facts most companies are exploiting to boost their online reputation.\nHow to boost reputation using videos\nBrand Yourself, contrary to what most people believe, does not mean making in-depth and long videos. In fact, the opposite is true since most people want to get the message without necessarily having to search for the meaning or dealing with technical jargon. Most people also don\u2019t want to wait for a long time before you summarize your presentation, so the clearer and shorter you make it, the better the reception.\nDistributing the videos\nWhen it comes to marketing, distributing video content is similar to sharing other kinds of content, so you can easily use the same channels. The most effective platforms where you can share your message to reach target audience include email, social media and on a website or blog. Updating your subscribers relevant information that answers their problems allows you to achieve your goal in marketing.\nManaging Your Google Presence is Extremely Important\nWhen possible customers are looking at your business and deciding if they want to shop there, one of the first things they are going to do is look at reviews. Before that, we have to assume that they can even find you online, and unless you\u2019ve built your presence beforehand \u2014 they probably can\u2019t! It seems easy, because big corporations do it all the time, but in reality it\u2019s a side of things that can only be done by internet marketing professionals.\nOnline Reputation Management companies do a lot of different things, but above and beyond, they progressively fight to get you seen \u2014 and in a better light. Fix Search Results is an example of one of the better of many companies that offer all sorts of different services \u2014 all of which can be quoted and discussed quickly through their website.\nFix Search Results is accessible to businesses of all sizes, yet they work with Fortune 500 companies and consistently get the job done well every time. It almost makes you wonder how you are able to get the same treatment that these companies get, albeit they probably pay a lot more for all of the perks.\nTo be able to have such a valuable service at your disposal, (and not have to go on realizing that it exists in the first place), you should seriously consider hiring an online reputation management consultant in order to at least check on things for you. You\u2019d be surprised how much potential business you are losing out on every day, without even knowing it. Beyond that, reviews are everywhere, so make sure you check constantly and try to maintain a healthy relationship with everyone, especially in public!\nMadison Street Capital Offers Private Sector Services\nMadison Street Capital, a company known for its excellent financial services in the public sector, has now expanded its services to include private sector businesses.

        "raw_content": "HOME Free Essays Perception on the Nursing Profession and Career Choice of High School Students\nSubject: School, Nursing\nAccording to Wieck (2006), the nursing workforce seems to be at an exciting crossroad of change, both in recruiting and in curriculum. The environment of healthcare has changed and so has nursing, resulting in students asking, \u201cWhat is nursing?\u201d This question creates a challenge for nurse educators.\nIn order to attract and retain bright, capable students in nursing, there must be changes in the nursing curriculum to provide and assure accurate and definitive perceptions of nursing. Factors which currently contribute to students\u2019 perceptions of nursing must be identified in order to establish and provide students with the career making skills necessary in choosing a nursing career, find job satisfaction following graduation, and remain in nursing as a career.\nPeterson (2006) stated that historically, nurses have been predominantly females who were easily recognized by a white hat and uniform making the professional and the profession more visible. Today, white uniforms and hats have been replaced by vivid colored scrub suits worn by both male and female nurses. Students\u2019 perceptions of nursing are based on visual images that are often limited to bedside care and drug administration instead of that of a highly skilled and well-educated nursing professional with an important role to play in healthcare.\nWe will write a custom essay sample on Perception on the Nursing Profession and Career Choice of High School Students specifically for you\nFoskett and Hensley-Brown (2008) suggests that students\u2019 career perceptions are highly individual, and are the product of contracted images of jobs they see for themselves, derived images from media, and delegated images from parents and friends. The U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (2000) lists nursing as one of the top 40 growth jobs for the next ten years. But looking in today\u2019s scenario, the number of students applying to baccalaureate nursing programs across the nation is decreasing.\nIn the Philippines, according to CHED Executive Director Julito Vitriolo (2010), nursing is considered one of the country\u2019s oversubscribed courses \u2013 programs that have continually rising enrolment rates in the face of dwindling job vacancies, leading to an oversupply of graduates. With the study, the researchers would like to know view of high school graduating students regarding nursing profession and their career choice in college, whether to take up nursing or not. As reflected in today\u2019s reality, many notice that there is a continuous decline in students taking up nursing course and being taken by some to be their future job but not as a profession as it should be. The researchers hope that this study will help schools on how they will intervene with the nursing curriculum being offered.\nThis study aimed to determine the perception of high school students on the nursing profession and their career choice. Specifically, this study answered the following questions:\n1. What is the profile of the 4th Year high school students in terms of: 1.1 Sex\n1.2 Family\u2019s Monthly Income\n2. What is the career choice of high school students?\n2.1 Courses in the College of Commerce\n2.2 Courses in the College of Aviation\n2.3 College of Criminology\n2.4 College of Theology\n2.5 College of Law\n2.6 Courses in the College of Science\n2.7 Courses in the College of Engineering\n2.8 Courses in the College of Medicine and Health Care\n2.9 Courses in the College of Arts\n2.10 Courses in the College of Computer Studies\n2.11 Courses in the College of Education\n2.12 Courses in the College of Architecture and Fine Arts\n3. What are the reasons of 4th year high school students in their preferred courses?\n4. What are the perceptions of 4th year high school students on the nursing\nPeople have a way of seeing the world and interpreting what is experienced. When encountering new knowledge or an experience that cannot be integrated comfortably with current ways of seeing the world, one has a choice of rejecting the new information or revising previous views. Mezirow calls this \u201ctransformative learning\u201d, which can be done by reading or hearing something new, taking a course, or by having a discussion with friends or colleagues. Transformative learning involves changing one\u2019s perspective.\nMezirow also uses the term \u201cmeaning perspective\u201d to describe how one sees the world. One expects to see things a certain way because of past experiences. This frame of reference or perspective stems from the way an individual grew up, one\u2019s culture, and knowledge that has been acquired. Mezirow describes meaning perspectives as values of culture that have been accepted without question (i.e. because one grew up with it). For\nexample, nursing is commonly perceived as a female profession. The opportunity to influence students\u2019 perspectives about nursing can influence whether accurate perceptions are used in making a career decision about nursing. Transformative learning about nursing can satisfy certain needs that many students may have in order to make a more informed career decision regarding nursing.\nStudents\u2019 meaning perspectives about nursing that are outdated or inaccurate and not redirected by providing transformative learning, can affect students\u2019 interests in nursing. Frank Parsons\u2019 Trait-and Factor theory maintained that an individual would be best satisfied with a career that was matched with the characteristics of the individual. Parsons wrote the first book on career decision-making early in the twentieth century entitled Choosing a Vocation. His conceptual framework for helping an individual select a career one liked and that matched one\u2019s abilities provides a systematic plan for career guidance.\nShadowing, volunteer experiences, and academia about nursing can provide a conceptual framework for prenursing students that will allow them to determine if nursing is a satisfying career choice and matches their strongest personal skills. Ginsburg, Ginsburg, Axelrod, and Herma developed the first approach of career development from individual developmental stages. These researchers viewed career choice as a life-long developmental process and cited three stages categorized by characteristics within age groups. First, fantasy period of\nchildhood before age 11, purely a play orientation early in the stage, becoming more work-oriented near the end of the stage. Second, tentative period of early adolescence, ages 11-17, a period of gradual recognition of work requirements, interests, abilities, work reward, values, and time perspectives. Third, realistic period involves adolescents, age 17 to young adult. Within this age, individuals integrate capacities and interests, further develop values, specify occupational choice, and crystallize occupational patterns.\nThe Realistic Period is the age group and period of the typical prenursing student. Ginsberg theorized that as career decisions were made during this period, other careers were no longer potential choices. Although this was later proven to be false, Ginsberg continued to stress earlier choices in the career decision-making process.\nFigure 1. Perception on Nursing Profession and Career Choice of Fouth Year High School Students The figure on the next page shows the profile of fourth year high school students namely sex, and family income. Each respondent would be asked to specify their gender and how much their family earns every month. The study would gather the courses preferred by fourth year high school students through a variety of courses list given by the researchers. The study would tackle the reasons behind the choice of course made by the students. The study would also tackle the number of students who have chosen nursing as a course for college, and the reasons for such preference for nursing. Lastly, the study will show how fourth year high school students view nursing as a profession regardless of their course preferences.\nThis part of the study aims to shows the perceived possible cause-and- effect relationship to simplify a complex analysis.\nFemale Fouth Year high school students choose nursing as their course in college than male 4th year high students.\nFouth Year high school students from high earner families choose nursing as a course than 4th year high school students from low earner families.\nFouth Year high school students who have relatives or family members who are in the medical field tend to enroll in the nursing curriculum than 4th year high school students who have no relatives or family members in the medical field.\nFouth Year high school students who have friends enrolling in the nursing curriculum follow the same course than students without friends enrolling in the nursing curriculum.\nThis part of the study aims to show where it is relevant and useful. It provides insight to the following institutions and individuals which will serves as benefactors of this study.\nParents. The study will provide better understanding of the students\u2019 perception on choosing a career, thus, parents can help their children in the hardest decision in choosing a career that would suit them. It will make them be aware with the perceptions of students about nursing as a profession and a life career.\nNursing Schools. Determining students\u2019 perceptions about nursing would provide Nursing Schools with a basis for curriculum development. Identifying these perceptions can lead to academic standards and healthcare experiences that could prove crucial to meeting students\u2019 individual career\ndevelopment needs both now and in the future.\nGraduate Nurses/Registered Nurses. This research is also important because it could provide information related to current perceptions about the\nnursing profession that experienced nurses could address as they mentor students.\nStudents who wish to enrolled in nursing need to have nurse role models that present positive and accurate characteristics about nursing, as well as the negative aspects of the profession. Knowledge of both types of factors can provide students the necessary skills to formulate quality perceptions for career decision making.\nNurses in the Academe. The result of this research can serve as a tool for nurse educators in developing a challenging curriculum preparing nursing students to integrate seriously the career into their life. The result can also serve to be a basis for an improve way of education and promotion of nursing profession to the young generation.\nFuture Researchers. For researchers who want to pursue the study, it will be a great contribution in taking up steps to find further answers and knowledge on the perceptions of students and the relevance of nursing as a profession. Furthermore, the study can be a guide to know an increase or a decline on the number of nursing enrollees for the future\nThis research study was conducted on Fouth Year high school students. This research is limited only to the first section of graduating high school students that enrolled for the school year 2013-2014 at Notre Dame of Marbel University \u2013 Integrated Basic Education Department, Notre Dame of Sienna School of Marbel, and Koronadal National Comprehensive High School located in the City of Koronadal, South Cotabato.\nThis part of the study provides meaning of terms being used by the researchers to support the understanding of the readers.\nPerception on the Nursing Profession. This term refers to a mental image of a person to the nursing profession. Perception is a subjective mater affected by different factors that vary from person to person. A person perceives nursing profession based on his observations in his day-to-day living in the society.\nNursing Profession. It is a kind of career that gives an opportunity in rendering care and service to others. People who are in this profession are persons who has knowledge and skills in promoting health and wellness among individuals, families and communities he or she cared for.\nCareer. The occupation in which a person does for a period of time. This is an occupation which a person has the opportunity to progress and it is regarded as a long-term or lifelong activity\nCareer choice. A decision made by an individual to choose a field to specialize in for progression of jobs. A decision to attain career goals set by an individual.\nCollege. This term describes an institution of higher learning that offers tertiary level of education and awards bachelor\u2019s and sometimes master\u2019s degrees. College offers courses of different fields for undergraduates to specialize in.\nThis section presented a review of related literature based from different sources such as from previous studies that supported the reliability of the\nHistorical Perspective of Nursing\nSince Florence Nightingale\u2019s pioneering work, only five generations of nurses have set their footprints in history. In that short time, nursing has grown enormously in knowledge, skill, prestige, and value. Nursing needs to be recognized as a member of the scientific discipline that can make valuable contributions to healthcare (Mundinger, 2000). America witnessed nursing first in the 20th century in home visiting and community-based care.\nThen, during World War II nurses cared for patients on the European front and ran hospitals in the United States while physicians were at war. Nurses were entrepreneurs for soup kitchens for the poor, directed individual and family counseling on dietetics and school health stations, and\nprovided most community-based care with physicians seeing only the critically ill. Nurses shed their uniforms for coveralls in the war and worked with their medical colleagues in the indistinguishable teamwork of saving lives, only to return after the war to resume their prewar status (Mundinger, 2000). Associate degree (AD) hospital based nursing programs, which had been the education and clinical training centers for nurses and supplied its nursing workforce, began to decline.\nBaccalaureate nursing programs, which offered a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) in addition to preparation for RN licensure became the focus for nursing education. The BSN degree began its ascendancy with emphasis on public health and leadership training, which resulted in advancing the BSN nurse as the hospital head nurse (Mundinger, 2000). Today NPs work in institutions and in private practice as clinical specialists where they see patients over an extended time period and across many settings and accountability in advanced nursing practice is growing.\nThese advancements have fostered nurses with authoritative and complementary roles in team care with physicians (Mundinger, 2000). The valuable background of professional development of nursing is influenced by need, biomedical knowledge, and the economic and financial structure of the nation and its health care system. Among nursing\u2019s greatest\ncontributions are primarily counseling, teaching, disease prevention, and health promotion, which are much less riveting to the public than elegant technology and life-and-death medical situations that are often associated with the physician (Mundinger, 2000). Thus, nursing has struggled for recognition and independence as well as opportunity while often overshadowed by its partner, medicine. Mundinger further said that nursing has proven that it can advance its future by educational preparation, securing public recognition and access through research, and by developing a structure in the nation\u2019s healthcare system that uses nursing services in a protected and focused way.\nInstead of preparing students for a specific job, literature suggests that nurse educators are equipped with knowledge, skills, and experiences that will allow them flexibility and an opportunity to advance throughout their careers (Moore, 2000). Key words to look for in nursing will be Advanced Nursing Practice (APN), Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS), Nurse Practitioner (NP), and Nursing Role (Lynch, 2000).\nCareer images of nursing can be shaped by a number of influences. Data by researchers in a South Hampton, United Kingdom study involving secondary and college age students, confirmed the importance of career\nimages and perceptions in shaping the career choices of individual students (Foskett and Hemsley-Brown, 2000). The word \u201cperception\u201d is defined as the \u201cability to perceive and the result of perceiving, to realize or become aware of something through the senses, an impression accompanied by an understanding of what it is\u201d (Webster, 2000). Foskett and Hemsley-Brown (2000) state that gender images influence perceptions of nursing.\nHistorically, nursing has been an occupation of women, as seen in all female nursing management, staffing, teaching, discipline, and organization. In fact, males under 10 years of age included in this study did not take the question about males in nursing seriously. The 17-year old males, however, were more conscious of being politically correct but still referred to the stereotypically feminine personality characteristics needed to be a nurse (i.e., patient, nice, caring). Additional data indicate that young men are unlikely to make a decision to enter nursing before age 21.\nCollege age males felt that male masculinity would be doubted if men chose a nursing career. Interestingly, the focus of a career as a physician centered around intellectual potential, whereas nursing focused around personality traits (Marshland, 2000). This could indicate a significance of role models and mentors as key factors influencing a student\u2019s image of nursing.\nStudents\u2019 focus on the roles and tasks of nursing showed that younger students in the Foskett and Hemsley-Brown (2000) study saw nursing as very task oriented (i.e., related to visible tasks of patient care at the bedside). A greater percentage of older students appeared to perceive nursing as carrying out orders without responsibility, status, or authority. Foskett and Hemsley-Brown (2000) suggest that images of career progression and security are very important factors to students in formulating career perceptions.\nFor example, most students in the research chose jobs they believed to offer greater career opportunities than nursing. These students chose jobs which were difficult to enter or highly selective, such as sports and acting. Understanding why students choose or reject a nursing career is relevant in designing a recruiting program for students. Nurse educators face the challenge of providing students with a variety of informative factors about nursing, which are important to students in career decision-making. Students are currently formulating career decisions from a variety of sources that do not include nurses; therefore, students may have vague, distorted, or inaccurate images of nursing that result in disillusioned career choices.\nA review of literature suggests that increasing numbers of students are making career decisions related to nursing based on a limited range of informational factors and deficient career making skills. The following data define how students presently view the nursing profession, at what age they begin to make decisions\nrelated to nursing, and some identified factors influencing students\u2019 images of nursing. According to Kerstern, Barkwell, and Meyers\u2019 (2001) students chose nursing related to five categories of reasons. In order of frequency students\u2019 reasons stemmed from a desire to nurture, meet emotional needs, employment opportunities, financial opportunities, and interest in science/disease.\nStevens and Walker (2003) reported the most frequent reason for collegebound students to choose nursing was the desire to help people, followed by wanting to do important work and the desire to work with all kinds of people. Kelly, Shoemaker, and Steele (2006) examined the motivational factors for males choosing a career in the predominantly female dominated field.\nThe results revealed that the choice of a career in nursing was influenced by the following: job security/availability; desire to help people, professional autonomy, and previous contact with the healthcare system (i.e. volunteering, working, family member, etc.), and family support. The foregoing studies revealed that most male and female students\u2019 primary interest in nursing was not linked to cognitive understanding of nursing, but on emotional desires, such as helping people and the desire to nurture. In the three studies cited in examining students\u2019 interests in nursing, at least two of the studies showed significant interest in each of the remaining areas. Students\u2019\nknowledge base of educational programs for nursing, nursing licensure, professional opportunities, or professional responsibilities were not indicated. (Foskett and Hemsley-Brown, 2000) Beck (2000) suggests that nurse educators need to use creative strategies and programs in career education to attract more applicants, and that first-hand knowledge of why students choose nursing as a career is basic and necessary.\nThree new pieces of important information on students\u2019 reasons for choosing a nursing career that emerged through Beck\u2019s study in the year 2000 were the powerful effect of observing nurses in action, feeling as though something was missing from their original career choice, and not gaining acceptance into medical school. Although Beck\u2019s study cannot be broadly generalized, it does have implications for nurse educators. It confirmed a repetitive pattern among students entering nursing as a career, namely a strong desire to help people and to experience an idealized \u201cone to one\u201d relationship with patients.\nA student\u2019s perception that the nursing profession reaps benefits for both patient and nurse are not always matched with the realities of today\u2019s healthcare delivery. Consistently, a student\u2019s strongest perception about nursing is that of a nurse\u2019s one to one relationship with patients, which in today\u2019s managed healthcare system is not a reality. One implication in general for nursing educators was that of not setting up students for disillusionment. Changes in nursing practice need to be made clear to students.\nCurriculum must be implemented to help students and new graduates adjust to realities of today\u2019s healthcare. Importantly, students must still be able to realize satisfaction and pleasure in the career they have perceived as one of caring for others. Otherwise, students are more likely to drop out of nursing programs or leave the profession after entering the workforce. (Author) Why are students overlooking careers in nursing?\nThe Journal of Vocational Education and Training (Foskett and Hemsley-Brown, 2000) sought to develop an understanding of how students perceive nursing as a career at various stages in their education, and how these perceptions affect students\u2019 interests in nursing. The study indicates that decisions about jobs are being made at an early age and that by late elementary school students have often rejected jobs on the basis of perceptions.\nThus, it is important to provide career information and experience for well-defined perceptions about nursing that can be developed for greater career decision-making skills. On many campuses, curriculum-based community \u201cservice learning,\u201d as it is most frequently referred to rather than traditional co-curricular volunteerism, represents a real growth area to enhance career-making skills (Fisher, 2006). Bringle and Hatcher (2006) define service learning as a credit-bearing educational experience in which students participate in an organized service\nactivity that meets identified community needs. Students reflect on the service to gain further understanding of the course content, a broader appreciation of the discipline, and an enhanced sense of civic responsibility. Overall, the data revealed that young people have a very limited and out-dated understanding of career progression of nursing and were unaware of changes in nurse education and training. Nurse educators have a responsibility not to set up students for disillusionment but instead to identify prenursing students\u2019 perceptions about nursing, help them to formulate accurate perceptions of nursing, and to adequately prepare them to succeed in nursing education and the nursing workforce.\nImpending Nursing Shortage\nNursing programs everywhere are using inventive tactics of tuition reimbursement, financial aid, high school \u201cshadowing\u201d programs, and opening doors to immigrant and minority students in order to attract the volume of students needed to provide the nursing workforce to care for the future population. Declining enrollment in baccalaureate nursing programs, an aging nursing workforce, the majority of nurse educators nearing retirement, and the current environment of healthcare are key factors underlying the current nursing shortage. (Benjamin, 2000)\nAlthough recruitment incentives are being offered, little is being done to influence a prenursing student\u2019s image of nursing, career making skills, or factors that negatively affect students\u2019 images of nursing. Sound images of nursing and more informed dimensional career opportunities in nursing could provide students significant skills for more informed career decisions.\nDeveloping improved career-making skills allows prenursing opportunities to explore career/job satisfaction in nursing. Locke (2009) states, \u201cJob satisfaction is the pleasurable emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one\u2019s job as achieving or facilitating the achievement of one\u2019s job values.\u201d Job satisfaction and dissatisfaction are functions perceived by what we want and what we obtain. Periodic assessments are needed periodically to determine the changes of students\u2019 desire and need in a career.\nLocke says students who make more informed career decisions tend to find greater satisfaction in a chosen career. Therefore, students who choose a nursing career based on a more informed career decision should find greater career satisfaction as a nurse. Although the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (2000) predicts a significant 21 percent job growth rate among RNs by 2006, the largest among all professions, fewer students are choosing careers in nursing. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing Media Relations (2000) states that with the steady decline of enrollment in baccalaureate nursing programs, the need to attract nursing students appears imperative.\nThe Bureau of Health Professions, Division of Nursing (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2000a), estimates that by 2010 the country will need 1.4 million RNs with a BSN, but will have only 635,000. Of the 532,000 nursing positions requiring a master\u2019s degree or Ph.D., only 250,000 nurses will actually be available to fill the demand. Literature reflects the aging of the current nursing workforce, indicating the average age of RNs to be 44.3 years, with those under age 30 representing only 10 percent (Peterson, 2001).\nAlarmingly, one-third of these young nurses indicated that they plan to leave the nursing profession within the next year (Hagan, 2001). Most nurse educators are nearing retirement with an average age of 55.5 years. This will affect the future of nursing education and the supply of students to fill nursing vacancies according to the National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses Preliminary Findings (U.S. Department of Health Services, 2000a; Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2000).\nConversely, changes in financing and organization of healthcare delivery resulted in a decreased demand for nursing services through the 1990s. In addition, forced deteriorations in quality healthcare resulting from constant cutbacks have made it difficult for frustrated nurses to encourage students to become nurses (Peterson, 2001). The projected intersection of supply and demand to the current shortage of nursing is estimated to be 2010, when the supply of RNs will no longer exceed the need. The future supply and demand of\nRNs will show a widening gap unless measures are taken to attract students into nursing, reduce attrition rates, and retain nursing graduates (Peterson, 2001) Virtually everyone has been in contact with and experienced the importance of having a nurse care for them during one\u2019s lifetime. Dicey Smith, MSN RN, an expert in the field says, \u201cNursing is the only profession I know that allows one to impact the lives of others from birth to the grave (Smith, 2001).\u201d It is often referred to as the \u201cheart and soul\u201d of health care (Harris, 2000). Studies prompted by Congressional involvement showed a strong and consistent relationship between nurse staffing and important patient outcomes in acute care hospitals inpatient units (Needleman, 2001).\nThe results of these studies indicated that patients cared for by a higher RN share of total staffing had a reduction in secondary infections and length of stay in hospital. Also, careful monitoring of in-home technology by nurses showed improved clinical outcomes (Compher, 2001). A number of related factors provide useful guidelines to indicate the increasing need for RNs. Study results indicate that older Americans compose a greater segment of the U.S. population than ever before. The U. S. Census Bureau (1995) and the U.S. Government Census (2000) report that since 1990, the percentage of Americans aged 65 and older has tripled, and the elderly population itself is getting older. Americans 85 and older, representing 4.0\nmillion individuals, is 33 times larger. According to the Programs and Initiatives for Aging (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2000b), one out of every six Americans, a total of over 89 million, will live to be 100 years old in the next 30 years (Peterson, 2001). An adequate nursing force will be needed to care for this aging population of \u201cbaby boomers,\u201d who are living longer and healthier lives and are expected to live well into their 80s and 90s.\nNurses oversee patient care in the community; provide primary care in a variety of non-acute settings, and highly technical care with acutely ill patients requiring hospitalization. Nurses are among a few health professionals responsible to their patients and profession to validate the safety and efficacy of healthcare practice. Over 50 million people a year are hospitalized, and because of the central role nurses plays in hospitals and nursing homes across the nation, the nursing shortage is everyone\u2019s problem (Nursing World, 2000; Nevidjon and Erickson, 2001).\nImportance of Informed Career Decision-Making\nStuds Turkel stated, \u201cA career is about daily meaning as well as daily bread. For recognition as well as cash, for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life rather than Monday through Friday sort of dying. We have\na right to ask about work that includes its meaning, recognition and astonishment, and life\u201d (Byars, 2006). Many prenursing students are uncertain about what career opportunities nursing will offer them, and some have misconceptions about what a nurse actually does. Some students have just never considered nursing. Could informed career decision-making influence recruitment of students into nursing, lower attrition rates, and help retain nursing graduates in the workforce?\nCareer development is a lifelong process, which incorporates education, occupational training, and work, as well as one\u2019s social and leisure life (Zunker, 2000). Today, the changes in the work-world and new definitions of what a career is are challenging us to make sense of our careers and reassess their meaning in our lives. Traditional job definitions are vaporizing, and it is never too early to begin preparing for a life-long career (Alaniz, 20001). Career guidance and counseling are components of a total career education program.\nStudents need to understand themselves in order to explore and plan a career. The School-To-Work Opportunities Act of 1994 states the strong need for career education and development programs for all students in order to provide students with information sharing, outreach, communication, career education, labor market information, job placement, work experience programs, counseling and assessment, and public relations (Cunanan, et. al, 2000).\nDeveloping accurate perceptions about the career in which a student is interested is one key to informed career decision-making. Recruiting students into nursing can begin with younger students as they formulate career goals and look to mentors as role models in careers they identify with. \u201cEyes to the Future\u201d is an online multi-age magazine targeting middle school girls interested in math and science.\nIt reaches them at an age when they are thinking about which career path they might take for the future. It also links middle school girls with high school girls interested in math and sciences who can be mentors and help the former make wise career choices (Little, 2000). The curriculum for an Introduction to orientation to nursing course could include placing prenursing students as mentors for younger students whose images of nursing are gradually increasing. A greater number of students may choose careers in nursing if provided with better decision-making skills and positive perceptions at a younger age, before negative images of nursing are shaped. There are many challenges for nursing to develop programs to interest students in nursing.\nPrimary Care Resource Initiative for Missouri (PRIMO) is an example of a career development program designed to remedy the shortage of nurses by placing students in grades 7-12 in summer \u201cshadowing\u201d health-related professional programs. PRIMO serves as a successful career decision-making tool for students interested in health careers, and encourages students in high school through post-graduation education to remain and practice in Missouri (Northeast Missouri Area Health Education Center, 2000).\nSome nursing programs encourage or require a volunteer or \u201cshadowing\u201d experience for admission. This experience helps students to see firsthand what a career in nursing has to offer (Benjamin, 2000). A introduction to Nursing course that is designed to acquaint students with professional nursing could provide students further opportunities to explore the academia of nursing, as well as clinical images, before a career choice is made.\nIf bright, capable students are uncertain or have not made a decision about a career, the orientation class may provide them with insight into an excellent and promising career of nursing. Foskett and Hemsley-Brown\u2019s study (2000) indicates that the main reason individuals desire to become a nurse is helping people. Indifference is the main reason for not wanting to enter nursing; therefore, many students had not rejected a nursing career but instead had not given it any consideration.\nIdentifying students\u2019 perceptions about nursing academia can indicate to nurse educators, advisors, and recruiters whether or not students\u2019 perceptions are based on accurate information from professional sources. Also, by linking students\u2019 images of clinical nursing in the setting with facts, nurse professionals can help students to develop accurate perceptions, which can determine career goals now and in the future.\nTo provide an adequate nursing workforce and to replace waning numbers of nurse educators, it is important to understand factors contributing to students\u2019 current career decision-making skills (Beck, 2000). This researcher\u2019s findings could provide data to professional nurses related to current student expectations about the nurse workforce. Recently, career opportunities for women have escalated and the mostly female dominated profession of nursing is facing stiff competition in career choice\nalternatives. Schools of nursing, nurse advisors/recruiters, and nurse mentors could utilize information related to current student perceptions of nursing in understanding what students are looking for in making career choices. Prenursing students could make more informed career decisions about a career in nursing if their perceptions were clearly understood by professionals and those who educate nursing\u2019s future practitioners. (Marshland, 2000) Little research has been done to determine prenursing students\u2019 academic and clinical perceptions regarding nursing.\nIt is the researcher\u2019s intent to determine what these students\u2019 perceptions are, and to identify any factors that may have influenced their development. Data collected can then be used by nurse educators to develop a curriculum that will address student\u2019s needs, which may affect recruitment and/or retention of prenursing students. Identifying images that may affect the perceptions of nursing can also provide data for improving or developing a new curriculum in career education for prenursing\nstudents. Questions that can be targeted in an Introduction to Nursing course may include: What are the reasons students are not choosing a nursing career, what are students\u2019 perceptions of a professional nurse, or what can one do with a degree in nursing, and can students be recruited into the nursing profession through career education/development?\nThese questions need to be answered in order to address the current shortage of baccalaureate nursing students in our universities and in the nursing workforce. (Hinshaw, 2001) Teenagers see nursing as working irregular shifts, taking orders from doctors, and bedside care probably forever (Sherrod, 2001). Many students still see nursing and think of bedpans and needles. Although this certainly can be part of nursing care, the role of the registered nurse today is a team coordinator of healthcare providers assuring quality care for all patients (Corcoran, 2001).\nAlaniz (2000) says that nursing students will need to possess the qualities: motivator, savvy, and team player. They will need to speak several languages and understand the cultures from which those languages come; master the Internet and know how to navigate its sea of information to find the precise data needed; feel at ease with all of the latest medical technology; be knowledgeable of all medical insurance policies and legal and ethical codes (state and federal) related to healthcare; and understand the human 32 psyche.\nNurses must also be excellent communicators and maintain clear communication with all colleagues, doctors, and patients defusing all interpersonal conflicts in a flash. The nurse of the future must anticipate healthcare trends years away and train for them now. A nurse will marry and raise a family, coach children\u2019s sports teams, care for aging parents, and finish graduate degrees while completing research. If that is not enough, they will be on the cutting edge in telemedicine and consulting on several committees and boards.\nThe nursing profession and America must be sensitive to the needs of providing career development to students and adults, formulating well-defined perceptions about professional nursing in the 21st century. In the study conducted by Rasmussen (2001), he mentioned that high school students of today want some adventure in their lives and some travel in their careers as cited by Diane Mancino, Ed.D. RN, executive director of the National Student Nurses Association (NSNA). The NSNA has recently produced a youth recruitment video, \u201cNursing: The Ultimate Adventure,\u201d targeting youth at the high school level in promoting modern images of nursing.\nThe video creates a sense of excitement about the field and discusses the emotional effect a nurse can have on patients. It shows interviews with students who want to go into nursing, and new images of career opportunities in nursing such as, research, the pharmaceutical industry, technology, and law, and the ability to make autonomous decisions on a moment-to moment basis in healthcare delivery.\nByars (2000) says that exploring careers is essential for youth to understand the world of work, but it must also include career education that will inform youth of challenges of adult life. Reaching one\u2019s career goals does not guarantee happiness, success, and personal fulfillment.\nSynthesis of the Review of Related Literature\nAs times goes on, Nursing as a profession must need to recognized as one of the important professions aligned with scientific discipline that always make valuable contributions to the society. In early times, nurses were already known as individuals who gave care to the sick and they were the assistants of physicians in treating those ill and sick persons.\nToday, in these modern times, nurses work in institutions and in private practice as clinical specialists where they see patients over an extended time period and across many settings and accountability in advanced nursing practice is developing. Theses advancements offered nurses to have authority and complementary roles as members in the health team with physicians. Indeed, nursing is a profession that our society needs. This is because each of us should have knowledge about diseases so that we will be able to manage if certain diseases will attack our health and then because our healthcare system is suffering from economic and financial constraints.\nExpert says that one factor that influences perception on nursing profession is the gender criterion. Many people see nursing as a profession only for female. They are only few males who take up nursing than females. Another is, people see nursing as very task oriented profession. There should be that appropriate career image of nursing so that people will be guided to what is nursing really about. Also, understanding why students choose or reject nursing as their career is relevant in designing an recruiting program for students especially for those nursing schools.\nThere must be an instillitation to the students\u2019 minds about basic and appropriate information regarding the nursing profession so that they will be guided appropriately in perceiving nursing as a profession and in choosing nursing as their career. A study showed that students chose nursing because they have the desire to nurture, to meet their emotional needs, because of employment opportunities, financial opportunities, and because they have an interest to science and diseases. Some says they chose nursing as their career because they have the willingness to help people and the desire to work with all kinds of people.\nThis chapter presents the methodology, the setting, the respondents involved,\nthe instruments used which will be validated to establish reliability of the questionnaires, and summary of the data obtained to be interpreted.\nGenerally, the study is a descriptive study; descriptive research designs that provided researchers with information about the perception of Fourth Year high school students on the nursing profession.

Their career choice and the reasons for the course preferences and preference for nursing.\nA questionnaire-type instrument was chosen, the researchers aim to have accurate results on the career choice of Fourth Year high School students, their perception on nursing profession, and their reasons for their course preference.

        "raw_content": "US Supreme Court Hears Special Education Case\nOn January 11, 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in an important special education case, Endrew F. v. Douglas Co. School District RE-1. Endrew is a child with autism. He attended the public school system in Colorado through 4th grade. During that time he developed severe behavior problems, including repeatedly injuring himself and bolting from the school. His parents claimed that he made no academic progress in 2nd, 3rd, or 4th grade. The school did nothing to combat the behavior problems. Endrew\u2019s parents withdrew him from the public school and placed him in a private school for autistic students. Endrew made rapid progress at the private school and the parents asked the public school to reimburse them for the private tuition.\nAt issue in the court case is whether a school district has to provide disabled children with an education that allows them to make meaningful progress or whether any amount of progress, as long as it is slightly more than trivial, is good enough. The administrative law judge concluded that Endrew had made \u201csome progress\u201d on a few of his goals in the public school system, and that was all that was required. Reimbursement of tuition was accordingly denied. The district court, in reviewing the administrative decision, agreed, concluding that minimal progress and \u201csome\u201d educational benefit is all that the law mandates. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed. The Supreme Court will now decide what kind of education disabled children are entitled to under the federal special education law.\nAt yesterday\u2019s oral argument, the attorney for the school district argued that as long as schools follow the procedures of the special education law \u2014 evaluate, convene team meetings, write IEPs, permit parental involvement in team meetings \u2014 districts are doing all that they are legally required to do. The attorney for the student argued that Congress intended that disabled children should have an educational opportunity equal to non-disabled children and that the Act therefore requires that a school provide a student with an educational program that allows the student to make meaningful progress year over year.\nUltimately the Court will decide whether disabled kids are guaranteed an education that provides them with meaningful benefits that will lead to, to the extent possible, post-secondary education, employment, and independent living, or whether these vulnerable kids are entitled only to an educational program that provides \u201csome\u201d progress and leaves them with a very uncertain future. The decision is expected in the spring of 2017.

        "raw_content": "Especially, It Seems, Beginners\n1 We\u2019re Walking More, but Not Enough\nAccording to CDC data, the number of Americans who say they walked for ten or more minutes at least once in the past week has increased by an impressive 15 million people since 2005, from 56 percent of U.S. adults then to 62 percent now. However, the average amount of time that people say they spent walking actually fell a bit, from 15 minutes per day down to 13 minutes. CDC officials, who interviewed over 45,000 people, attribute the inconsistency to most of the new walkers starting with brief strolls and thus lowering the overall average walk time. Adults who report that they meet federal fitness guidelines -- 75 weekly minutes of vigorous activity (jogging, swimming) or 150 minutes of moderate activity (brisk walking) -- rose from 42 percent in 2005 to 48 percent in 2010.\nPreviously: Women May Lower Stroke Risk by Walking\nTags: CDC, Physical Activity, National Health Interview Surveys, U.S. Adults Walking, Federal Fitness Guidelines\nAs Much As 34 Percent\n2 Weight Training Cuts Diabetes Risk in Men\nWeight training can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in men by as much as 34 percent, finds a Harvard University study of more than 32,000 men who lifted weights for at least 2 1/2 hours per week. While previous studies showed the beneficial effects of aerobic exercise on the prevention of diabetes, this was the first to study weight training and show that it has benefits independent of aerobics, says lead author Dr. Frank Hu. Weight training builds muscle, which is important for metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Aerobic exercise burns fat, which is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes. \"The most important message from this study is that combining the two types of exercise confers the largest benefit,\" says Hu. It was linked to a 59 percent reduction in diabetes risk.\nMore at ABCNews.go.com | Posted 7 years ago by Melody Lesser\nPreviously: Spurts of Intense Exercise May Help Diabetics\nTags: Aerobics, Diabetes, Harvard University, Weight Training, Reducing Type 2 Diabetes RIsk, Dr. Frank Hu, Weight Training and Diabetes\nDifferent Condition, Treatment\n3 Type 1 Diabetes Often Misdiagnosed As Type 2\nAs the diabetic population continues to grow, many adults with type 1 diabetes are being misdiagnosed with type 2, reports The Wall Street Journal. Type 1 is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the body\u2019s ability to produce insulin that must be replaced daily. Type 2 diabetes is brought on by inactivity and obesity and can often be managed with lifestyle changes. It may be treated with oral insulin although some type 2 diabetics require insulin injections. It\u2019s estimated that there are 1.3 to 2.6 million Americans with type 1 diabetes, and that figure is rising by about 2.5 to 4% a year for unknown reasons. The WSJ reports that misdiagnoses are often by primary care physicians, many of whom haven\u2019t received adequate education about the rising incidence of adult onset type 1 diabetes.\nMore at Www.online.wsj.com | Posted 7 years ago by Melody Lesser\nPreviously: People with Type\nTags: Autoimmune Disease, Type 1 Diabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, Wall Street Journal, Managing Diabetes, Insulin Injections, Lifestyle Changes",

        "raw_content": "Companies essentially need to prepare four financial statements. Fundamentally, all these statements comprise of same series of accounting entries, but each statement focuses on a different financial aspect. It is important to understand the relationship between financial statements to know how efficient the operations of a company are.\nThe income statement of a company tells us the expenses incurred and revenues earned for a defined period. The balance sheet provides information about its financial status pertaining to liabilities, assets and equity of the company as at the completion of that accounting period. The cash flow statement narrates the flow of cash as result of its different activities during that period. Shareholders\u2019 equity statement is a record of the changes in equity account brought by various dealings, responsible for causing changes in rest of the statements.\n1. Income Statement and Balance Sheet\nExpenses and revenues as contained in the income statement could be connected to certain liability and asset accounts of the balance sheet. Revenue as a result of credit sale is treated as a current asset of the company till payment is received from buyers. Therefore, any such revenue included in the income statement gets recorded as a current asset under the head \u2018accounts receivable\u2019 of the balance sheet. There is a similar connection between accrued, non-cash expenses as recorded in the income statement and current liabilities (like accounts payable) as shown in the balance sheet.\n2. Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement\nIncome is accounted for as profit but it may not essentially be in terms of cash. It\u2019s equally applicable that cash flow from operations of the company may not really be the outcome of expenses incurred and revenue earned. Nevertheless, companies may employ figures pertaining to income for calculating actual cash flow from their operational activities. For the purpose of preparing cash flow statements, companies deduct all non-cash proceeds from net income but include all non-cash expenses in the net income shown in the income statement.\n3. Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement\nBalance sheet too is directly connected to cash flow statement. Companies provide information of their entire cash holdings in the cash account of the balance sheet at the completion of the accounting period. However, the cash flow in the balance sheet doesn\u2019t illustrate the real outflow or inflow of cash received against respective transactions for the accounting period. The cash flow statement narrates cash transaction of all business operation like investing, operating and financing. For instance, payment made for acquiring an asset shown in balance sheet is accounted in cash flow statement as cash outflow.\n4. Balance Sheet and Shareholders\u2019 Equity Statement\nEquity of shareholders is recorded in the equity section of balance sheet that has two more sections. The equity section of balance sheet by itself wouldn\u2019t disclose the status of different accounts but reveals their accrued amounts. The statement of equity of shareholders records amendments in all equity accounts. For instance, cash collected as a result of having extra shares and recorded in balance sheet is accounted by showing increased number of shares while the amount in dollars is shown in the statement of stockholders\u2019 equity.\nAnalyzing and interpreting the relationship between financial statements is vitally important to know where the company is heading to.",

I. POLICY PURPOSE To establish standards, procedures, and sanctions for students that are consistent with Chapter 6 of the NSHE Code, Rules and Disciplinary Procedures for Members of the University Community. II. POLICY STATEMENT The College of Southern Nevada (CSN or College) continually strives to establish a spirit of community in accordance with the highest standards of academic excellence and freedom, institutional integrity, and constitutional protections. Such an environment is essential in fostering intellectual growth and achievement. Each member of the College shares the responsibility of maintaining conditions conducive to the achievement of the College s mission. CSN has adopted policies that are applicable college wide and in some instances department specific to set forth standards and expectation. As members of the College community, the behavior of all students is governed by the NSHE Code and the Student Conduct Code. Students are also subject to other Policies including, for example only, the Academic Integrity Policy and the Disruptive and Abusive Student Policy, and such policies will govern when applicable to a situation and the Student Conduct Code will apply as necessary. In addition, students may also be members of other college-based communities that impose additional standards of conduct, for example only, intercollegiate athletic teams and Phi Theta Kappa. Nothing contained in the Student Conduct Code is intended to create a contractual obligation between CSN and members of the CSN Community. CSN reserves the right to modify the Student Conduct Code at any time and the President of the College may suspend or rescind all or any part of this policy or related procedures. The Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) Board of Regents reserves to the President of the College the authority and responsibility for matters of student discipline. This authority is generally delegated by the President to the Vice President for Student Affairs and the staff of the Student Affairs division. The Student Conduct Code consists of standards, procedures, and sanctions that are consistent with Chapter 6 of the NSHE Code, Rules and Disciplinary Procedures for Members of the University Community. In the event of a conflict between the Student Conduct Code and the NSHE Code, the NSHE Code shall prevail. The Student Code of Conduct (SCC) is maintained with latest changes and may be found on the College s website under Policies and Procedures at Student Rights and Responsibilities I. Authority and Jurisdiction The President is charged by the NSHE Board of Regents with the responsibility of establishing and enforcing policies governing student conduct. CSN s policies regarding student conduct enable the College to protect against the conduct of those who, by their actions, impair or infringe on the rights of others or interfere with the orderly operations of the College. CSN may respond to violations of CSN s Policies occurring at any of the following locations: A. College campus, including owned, leased or controlled property. B. Any location where a student is engaging in College activities or is engaging in activities arising out of the student s membership in the College community. Violators may be accountable to both civil and criminal authorities and to the College for actions that constitute violations of its policies. At the discretion of College officials, the College may proceed with enforcement of its policies while other proceedings are pending. Page 1\n2 II. Emergency Clause The President or his designee may order the immediate suspension of a student for an interim period pending a disciplinary hearing for any student who there is cause to believe endangers the health, safety, or welfare of the College community or its property. Simultaneous with such suspension, the President or his designee shall refer the charges to the Student Affairs Division, which shall process such charges in the manner and within the time limits required by the Student Conduct Code. The student has the right to challenge the interim suspension by requesting a hearing within ten (10) days as specified in the NSHE Code. III. Student Rights The College shall provide for: A. The orderly administration of the SCC. Reasonable deviations from the disciplinary procedures described in the SCC will not invalidate a decision or proceeding unless the Vice President for Student Affairs determines that such errors were substantial enough to prevent a fair hearing. The SCC does not have any application to the discretion of any instructor in awarding final grades. The appeal process for grades is provided in the Grade Appeal Policy and the Academic Integrity Policy, as applicable. B. The right to freedom from discrimination on the basis of race, gender, age, religion, creed, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation. Procedures for reporting and investigating allegations of abuse are also available on the College website and posted throughout campus. C. The right to engage in inquiry and discussion, to exchange thoughts and opinions, and to speak, write, or print freely on any subject in accordance with the guarantees of federal and state laws, and CSN policies. D. The right, as citizens, to exercise their freedoms without fear of College interference. E. The opportunity to participate in the formulation of policy directly affecting students through membership on appropriate committees as determined by the President of the College, student government and other recognized groups within the College. F. Ready access to established College policies and procedures. G. The right to engage in peaceful and orderly speech, protest, demonstration, and picketing within the public forum which do not disrupt the educational functions of the College. IV. Student Responsibilities Students are expected to abide by the standards and expectations of the NSHE Code, the College policies, and/or the student s department or program policies. The following conduct, being incompatible with the purposes of an academic community, is prohibited and shall constitute cause for discipline and may lead to the procedures and disciplinary sanctions established herein, other CSN policies, and/or the NSHE Code, as applicable. A. Engaging in conduct that interferes with academic freedom as specified in section of the NSHE Code. B. The use of, or threat to use, force or violence against any member or guest of the College, except when lawfully permissible. C. Interference by force, threat or duress with the lawful freedom of movement of persons or vehicles on the premises of the College. D. The intentional disruption or unauthorized interruption of functions of the College, including but not limited to classes, convocations, lectures, meetings, recruiting interviews and social events, on or off premises of the College. E. Willful damage, destruction, defacement, theft or misappropriation of equipment or property belonging to, in the possession of or on premises occupied by, the College, including, but not limited to, littering or other inappropriate disposal of refuse. F. Knowing possession on any premises of the College of any firearms, explosives, dangerous chemicals or other instruments of destruction, such as fireworks, or other dangerous weapons as defined by the laws of the State of Nevada, without the written authorization of the President of the College. G. Trespassing or continued occupation of buildings, structures, grounds or premises belonging to, or occupied by, the College after having been ordered to leave by the President or other College official acting in the course and scope of his or her employment. H. Forgery, alteration, falsification or destruction of College documents or furnishing false information in documents submitted to the College. Page 2\n3 I. Making an accusation which is intentionally false or is made with reckless disregard for the truth against any member of the College community by filing a complaint or charges under the NSHE Code, the College s policies or under any applicable established grievance procedure at the College. J. The repeated use of obscene or abusive language in a classroom or public meeting of the College where such usage is beyond the bounds of generally accepted good taste and which, if occurring in a class, is not significantly related to the teaching of the subject matter. K. Willful incitement of persons to commit any of the acts herein prohibited. L. Disorderly, lewd or indecent conduct occurring on College premises or at a College sponsored function on or off such premises. M. Any act prohibited by local, state or federal law which occurs on College premises or at a College sponsored function on or off such premises. For example, storing, possessing, using distributing, selling, bartering, manufacturing, exchanging, or giving away controlled substances as defined in Nevada Revised Statutes is prohibited. As another example, operating a motor vehicle in violation of traffic rules so as to endanger another person or property is prohibited. As another example, use or possession of alcoholic beverages in violation of state law or in violation of the Board of Regents Policy, Title 4, Chapter 20, Section A. 4 is prohibited. N. Any act of unlawful discrimination or harassment based on race, creed, color, sex, age, sexual orientation, handicap or national origin. Harassment is any verbal, visual or physical conduct that is sufficiently pervasive that it adversely affects, or has the purpose or logical consequence of interfering with the student s educational program or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment for other members of the College community. O. Acts of academic dishonesty, including but not limited to cheating, plagiarism, falsifying research data or results, or assisting others to do the same. School officials may choose to deal with any act that is a violation of the CSN Academic Integrity Policy in accordance with that policy rather than the discipline procedures set forth in this SCC. (CSN Academic Integrity Policy available at P.

If the sanctions contained in the written report differ from what was presented at the resolution discussion, those differences are to be noted and explained. 3. This written notice will inform the accused student of the available options, which are to accept the sanctions in full or to reject the sanctions. If the sanctions are rejected in whole or in part, the informal process ends and a formal hearing will be scheduled. 4. This notice will also inform the accused student that the informal process does not provide for an appeal other than to opt for a formal hearing. Because there is no appeal for informal resolutions, if the student accepts the sanctions proposed by the Student Conduct Officer, the sanctions will be imposed immediately. 5. The accused student will be informed of the responsibility to notify the Student Conduct Officer in writing of the student s choice to accept or reject the sanctions within seven (7) college working days of the date the notice of the proposed sanctions was received by the student. If the student rejects the proposed sanctions, the Student Conduct Officer will notify the student that the informal resolution process has ended and the formal hearing process has been initiated. Page 4\n5 V. Formal Resolution A. Seven (7) college working days following the completion of the initial information gathering process, or the informal resolution process, the Administrative Officer shall make a recommendation to the Vice President for Student Affairs whether to proceed to a formal hearing. B. The Vice President for Student Affairs shall notify the parties of a decision to accept or reject the Administrative Officers recommendation, within seven (7) college working days of receipt of the recommendation. C. If the Vice President for Student Affairs determines that the matter should not proceed to hearing, unless new evidence sufficient in the opinion of the Vice President for Student Affairs to reopen the case is subsequently discovered, the complaint shall be dismissed and the disciplinary procedures shall be closed. All documents shall be handled in accordance with section (f) of the NSHE Code. D. If the Vice President for Student Affairs determines that the matter should proceed to a formal hearing, any additional investigation by the Administrative Officer must be concluded within ten (10) college working days, absent compelling circumstances. VI. Types of Formal Hearings A. Pursuant to section of the NSHE Code, the procedure to conduct a hearing is to be determined by the institutional President or his/her designee. B. The student who is charged with a disciplinary infraction shall have the right to recommend to the Vice President for Student Affairs what type of hearing will be held. Within seven (7) college working days after receipt of the decision of the Vice President for Student Affairs to conduct a formal hearing, the student shall notify the Vice President for Student Affairs and the Administrative Officer of the student s recommendation for the type of hearing, either a General Hearing Officer or a General Hearing Committee. 1. General Hearing Officer: A formal hearing held individually with a Hearing Officer who is appointed by the Vice President for Student Affairs. The Hearing Officer s role is to be an objective party, aware of and knowledgeable about the Student Conduct Code and hearing procedures. 2. General Hearing Committee: A hearing chaired by the Student Conduct Officer. The Hearing Committee is composed of the chair and at least a three-member panel consisting of at least one student and at least one professional staff and/or faculty. The chair will serve without vote and preside over the hearing. Members will be selected by the Vice President for Student Affairs. C. A charged student may petition the Vice President for Student Affairs for, or the Vice President for Student Affairs may choose to have, a hearing before a Special Hearing Officer or a Special Hearing Committee. 1. Special Hearing Officer: A formal hearing held with a Hearing Officer appointed by the Vice President for Student Affairs, who is an attorney or has the professional experience in presiding at judicial or quasi-judicial adversary proceedings and who holds no contractual relationship with any System institution during the term of appointment. 2. Special Hearing Committee: A formal hearing, administered by a Hearing Officer appointed by the Vice President for Student Affairs and an elected Hearing Committee. The composition of the panels and method of election shall be consistent with section 6.11 of the NSHE Code. D. The charged student may challenge a hearing member for cause and may challenge a decision by the Vice President for Student Affairs by following the appeal process in Article X of the Student Conduct Code. E. In accordance with Hearing Procedures (Article VIII), the Hearing Officer or Committee shall make findings of fact and, if necessary, recommend sanctions at the close of the hearing. The Hearing Officer or Committee s recommended sanction will include a determination of whether the sanction shall be (a.) imposed after the ten (10) college working days during which a student may file an appeal, or (b.) imposed only after the conclusion of appeal procedures. Nothing in this section abrogates the Vice President of Student Affair s authority, under extenuating circumstances, to immediately impose the sanction. Page 5\n6 VII. Notice of formal hearings: A. A notice of hearing letter from the Student Conduct Officer must be provided to the charged student and the complainant a minimum of ten (10) college working days prior to any hearing. This letter shall include the following information: 1. Date, time, place of hearing; 2. Specification of the misconduct charged; 3. Name of complainant; 4. Specification, to the extent possible, of the time, place, person(s) involved and circumstances of alleged prohibited conduct and name(s) of possible witnesses. 5. Notification that the person charged may be accompanied by an advisor of the charged person s choice. If the person charged intends to have an attorney or other representative present, he or she must notify the Student Conduct Officer no later than five (5) college working days before the hearing of the name and address of the advisor, if any, and whether the advisor is an attorney. If, at any time during the proceeding, the student desires a representative or a change of representative, that right may be invoked. The proceeding will be stayed for a period of no fewer than five (5) and no more than fifteen (15) college working days. This right may be invoked only once during any disciplinary proceeding, unless the Student Conduct Officer agrees to any additional requests for changes of representation or unless the student s attorney withdraws; 6. A copy of the applicable disciplinary hearing procedures; and 7. Such other information as the Student Conduct Officer may wish to include. B. Notices shall be either hand-delivered directly to the person charged or sent by certified or registered mail. Notices delivered by mail are considered delivered when sent, provided that three (3) additional college working days shall be added to the time period set forth for minimum notice (NSHE Code section 6.9.3b). VIII. Hearing Procedures The Student Conduct Officer will be responsible for providing in writing a report summary to the Hearing Officer or Hearing Committee members and the charged student, including all information that resulted from the investigation process. This information will be the basis of the formal hearing proceedings. A. Upon request, the student charged, the student s attorney or other representative, if any, and the Student Conduct Officer have the right to examine any documentary evidence to be presented at the hearing, at least five (5) college working days prior to the hearing during regular business hours. B. Students will be presumed innocent until proven otherwise by a preponderance of the evidence. The burden of proof shall at all times rest upon the party bringing the charge. C. Any formal hearing conducted by a General Hearing Committee or Special Hearing Committee requires a majority to determine a student s responsibility. D. The hearing is closed unless the person charged requests an open hearing (NSHE Code section 6.9.8). E. Relaxed evidentiary standards will apply; hearings are not full-blown legal proceedings. F. The charged student, or the student s attorney or other representative, has the right to present, challenge, and/or rebut evidence and to question or cross-examine witnesses at any hearing. G. The charged student, or the student s attorney or other representative, has the right to respond to the allegation, to present relevant information, and to call witnesses on the student s behalf. The charged student and the student s attorney or other representative, has the right to hear and question all witnesses at the hearing. H. The charged student has the right to appear at a hearing in order to hear the evidence, to offer explanatory and clarifying information, and to question any witnesses. However, it is not necessary that the student be present for action to be taken. The charged student may, at his or her election, choose not to attend a formal disciplinary hearing. In such cases, failure to respond or appear will not create a presumption of responsibility or non-responsibility (NSHE Code section ). I. All findings of fact, recommendations and decisions must be based only on the evidence presented at the hearing. J. Reasonable deviations from the disciplinary procedures described in the SCC will not invalidate a decision or proceeding unless the Vice President for Student Affairs determines that such errors were substantial enough to prevent a fair hearing. K. A single hearing may be held for more than one person charged in cases arising out of a single or multiple occurrences. The Student Conduct Officer makes such determinations, subject to review by Page 6\n7 the Vice President for Student Affairs. However, each accused student retains the right to have his/her case heard individually. L. An audio tape recording will be made of the hearing for the purpose of review by the Appeals Committee. The record shall be the property of CSN and will be maintained as such for a period of at least one year or longer if the matter is before the courts. Upon the written request of the charged student, a copy of the tape shall be made available to the student by the Administrative Officer, within ten (10) college working days following the request. Confidentiality of tapes from closed hearings shall be maintained by all parties and their representatives. M. The Hearing Officer or Committee s findings of fact and recommended sanction (including the determination of whether the sanctions shall be (a.) imposed after the ten (10) college working days during which the student may file an appeal or (b.) only after the conclusion of the appeal process) shall be made in writing to the Vice President for Student Affairs within ten (10) college working days after the close of the hearing, with copies provided to the student charged and the Administrative Officer. The student s copy shall be sent by certified mail, return receipt requested. Lists of possible sanctions appear in section 6.3 of the NSHE Code and Article IX of the SCC. N. The Vice President for Student Affairs shall review the findings of fact and recommended sanctions reported by the Hearing Officer or Committee, and may: 1. Dismiss the charge or charges, in any combination; 2. Affirm the recommended sanctions; 3. Impose a lesser sanction than recommended; or 4. Order a new hearing. O. The Vice President for Student Affairs shall submit a written decision within ten (10) college working days after receipt of the findings and recommended sanctions. The Vice President for Student Affairs shall notify the person charged and the Administrative Officer of the decision and of the appeal procedures. Any decision made by the Vice President for Student Affairs, other than to affirm the recommended sanctions, shall include a written explanation as to why the recommended sanctions were not followed. The student charged shall be notified by personal delivery of the decision or by certified mail, return receipt requested. When a minor student is suspended or expelled, the minor's parent or legal guardian shall be notified by certified mail, return receipt requested, sent to the parent s or legal guardian s last known address posted in the records on file with the Registrar. P. If there is no appeal; the decision issued by the Vice President for Student Affairs is final. IX. Sanctions In addition to these formal sanctions and depending on the circumstances, a student may be required to perform community service, be advised to seek counseling or other specialized support services, or be required to participate in an activity or program, the clear purpose of which would be to redirect behavior. Failure to comply with any such requirements will constitute a violation of the Student Conduct Code. Available sanctions include: A. Warning: Notice, oral or written, that continued or repeated violation of College policies or regulations may be cause for further disciplinary action, normally in the forms of censure, loss of privileges and exclusion from activities, probation, suspension, or expulsion. B. Loss of Privileges and Exclusion from Activities: Exclusion from participation in privileges and extracurricular activities. C. Disciplinary Probation: Probation may include exclusion from participation in privileged or extracurricular activities. The person placed on probation shall be notified in writing that the commission of prohibited acts will lead to more severe disciplinary sanctions. D. Suspension: Termination of student status for a specified academic term or terms with reinstatement thereafter. The student will be notified of the suspension in a written notice. The official transcript of the student shall be marked Disciplinary Suspension Effective to. Parents or legal guardians of minor students shall be notified of the action. After the suspension period has elapsed, the student will be placed on disciplinary probation for a period of time that is equal to the amount of time that the student was suspended. At the end of the probationary interval, the student will be classified as being in good standing provided that no further Student Conduct Code violations have occurred. E. Expulsion or Termination: Page 7\n8 Termination of student registration and status for an indefinite period of time. The official transcript of the student shall be marked Disciplinary Expulsion Effective. The parents or legal guardians of minor students shall be notified of the action. F. Restitution: The requirement to reimburse the legal owners for a loss due to defacement, damage, fraud, theft, or misappropriation of property. It may be imposed either exclusively or in combination with other disciplinary action. Such reimbursement may take the form of monetary payment or appropriate service to repair or otherwise compensate for damages. Failure to make restitution shall be the cause for more severe disciplinary action. X. The Appeal Process A student who has been found by a formal hearing (Administration of the Student Conduct Code, Articles V-VIII) to have violated the SCC has the right to appeal that decision to the President or his/her designee. An appeal is consideration by an appellate body, not a new hearing. The charged student(s) and advisor or attorney has the right to review the student's disciplinary file, including any verbatim record (tape recording) of the hearing. Any sanction imposed as a result of a hearing shall not be effective during the ten (10) college working days during which an appeal may be filed, except that the Vice President for Student Affairs has the authority, under extenuating circumstances, to immediately impose the sanction. If recommended by the Hearing Officer or Committee, the imposition of sanctions may be delayed until the conclusion of the appeal process. A. Criteria for an Appeal An appeal from a charged student must cite at least one of the following requirements as the reason for appeal: 1. That the procedure under which the person was charged is invalid, or if valid, was not followed; 2. That the person charged did not have adequate opportunity to prepare and present a defense to the charges; 3. That the evidence presented at the hearing was not substantial enough to justify the decision; 4. That the sanction imposed was not in keeping with the gravity of the violation. B. Appeal Procedures 1. The student charged has ten (10) college working days from receipt of the written decision to file a written appeal. 2. The student charged with the Student Conduct Code violation must include the following information in the appeal: a. The specific grounds for the appeal (See A 1-4 above); b. Supporting arguments and documentation; and c. Other relevant information the student charged wishes to include. 3. The written appeal will be forwarded to the Vice President for Student Affairs. Within ten (10) college working days of receipt, the Vice President for Student Affairs will forward the appeal to The Standing Committee on Student Conduct Code Appeals for its recommendation. 4. The Standing Committee may request a personal appearance of the person charged. The appearance of the person charged shall be limited to the issues raised by the appeal. An appearance is not required nor will nonappearance prejudice the appeal. C. Student Appeal Record In considering the appeal, a review will be conducted of the existing record of the case, which will include, but is not limited to: 1. The original statement sent to the student as written notice of the charges; 2. The written decision of the initial Hearing Officer or Committee; 3. The audio recording of the initial Hearing Officer or Committee; and 4. The student's letter of appeal. D. Appeal Result Recommendations on appeals by the Standing Committee will be made within twenty (20) college working days following receipt of the appeal from the Vice President for Student Affairs. The committee shall make its recommendation as to the result of the appeal. The recommendation will be to: 1. Dismiss the charge; 2. Affirm the charge; 3. Impose a lesser sanction; or 4. Order a new hearing. Page 8\n9 In cases resulting in suspension, the Standing Committee s decision shall constitute a recommendation to the President, who shall have the final authority. In cases of expulsion, the Board of Regents will be asked to consider the appeal at the next regularly scheduled meeting of that body. The decision of the Board of Regents will be final. In all other cases, including appeals of decisions by the Vice President to automatically impose sanctions other than suspension or expulsion, the recommendation of the Standing Committee will be the final disposition of the case. E. Distribution of Response Copies of the written result of the appeal shall be sent to: 2. Student charged; 3. Hearing Officer or Chair of the Hearing Committee; and 4. Administrative Officer. F. New Hearing When a new hearing is ordered, the case, along with a written rationale for upholding the appeal, will be heard by a different Hearing Officer or Hearing Committee. In this situation, the student retains the right to appeal as if it were an original hearing. G. Request for Review When an appeal is not heard and the student perceives the decision not to hear the appeal was biased, the student has the option of having the case reviewed by requesting, within ten (10) college working days after the date of the decision, a review through the President. This review will be conducted by the President, or his/her designee. H. Standing Committee on Student Conduct Code Appeals The Standing Committee is a three member appellate panel consisting of one faculty member, one professional staff member, and one student. Members of the Standing Committee on Student Conduct Code Appeals shall be appointed in the following manner: 1. No later than September 1, or the first college working day thereafter if September 1 is a holiday or weekend, the Vice President for Student Affairs shall submit to the President a list of three professional staff; the Chair of the Faculty Senate shall submit a list of three faculty; and the President of the Associated Students of the College of Southern Nevada (ASCSN) shall submit a list of six students. 2. The President of the College shall invite one member on each list to serve on the Standing Committee; others on the list shall serve as alternates. Should any of the three entities noted above fail to provide such a list, the President shall have full authority to make an appointment for that position. Ideally, all appointments should be in place no later than September Members of the Standing Committee shall elect their own chair. 4. Members of the Standing Committee serve for a one-year period and are eligible for reappointment. 5. In the event that a member cannot hear an appeal or has a conflict of interest in a given appeal, the remaining members of the Standing Committee shall select an alternate from the previously provided lists. If a particular list has not been provided, the remaining members of the Standing Committee shall have discretion to select an alternate. 6. A conflict of interest shall be deemed to occur whenever an individual has a prior interest in a case as a witness, advisor, hearing panel officer, or other connection that would create the appearance of or an actual conflict.

        "title": "\u201cSavages\u201d Movie Review | LIGHTNING FILM REVIEW",
        "raw_content": "\u00ab \u201cThe Dark Knight Rises\u201d Movie Review\n\u201cThe Amazing Spider-Man\u201d Movie Review \u00bb\nThere\u2019s no doubt Oliver Stone\u2019s new film \u201cSavages\u201d is aptly titled as it contains nothing in the way of a morality play. There is no good versus evil here, as each character qualifies the film\u2019s title with both their actions and their reasoning behind their actions. I\u2019m thinking Stone and his screenwriter, Shane Salerno (\u201cArmageddon\u201d), intended it that way. The problem with \u201cSavages\u201d is there is nothing really within the story or characters that sets it apart from say \u201cPulp Fiction\u201d or even Stone\u2019s own \u201cNatural Born Killers\u201d. Perhaps Stone set out to make a film which shows the realities of the media hyped drug cartels in Mexico and if he did than the film at least succeeds on that accord. What you\u2019ll find out from watching \u201cSavages\u201d is Mexican drug cartels are no scarier than their counterparts in the United States, contrary to what the papers would have you believe.\nI\u2019m shocked I\u2019ve sat through a film starring Taylor Kitsch for the third time this year (\u201cJohn Carter\u201d, \u201cBattle Ship\u201d). In this film, his character is an ex Navy SEAL named Chon who provides the muscle and the street smarts in a large Marijuana growing and distribution operation in Laguna Beach, California. His partner and best friend, Ben (Aaron Johnson), is a botanist who provides the brains behind a product said to contain over 30% THC. This makes Ben and Chon\u2019s product the best in the world, or so says their live in girlfriend whom they share, Ophelia (Blake Lively), who also serves as the film\u2019s narrator. With a crooked DEA Agent (John Travolta) on their payroll, the duo live large and have what is seemingly an untouchable and lucrative operation.\nThen comes the Baja Cartel, who demands they become business partners. The head of the Baja Cartel is a woman named Elena (Salma Hayek) and she sends her resident thug, Lado (Benicio Del Toro), to essentially force Ben and Chon into dealing with them. When Lado suspects they will run, he kidnaps Ophelia, forcing them to comply with Elena\u2019s demands or else. The film then veers into a who can outsmart who type second act where each side uses their resources to try and break the will of the other. Stone spares nothing in the way of his depiction of brutal graphic violence throughout. It\u2019s clear the MPAA has come a long way since it slapped an \u201cX\u201d rating on \u201cScarface\u201d in 1982. That film doesn\u2019t contain half the blood, gore, sex, and torture you\u2019ll be treated to by watching \u201cSavages\u201d.\nBy far the biggest bright spot in the film is the performance, not surprisingly, by Benicio Del Toro. His Lado has savagery oozing from him. In his many scenes, he speaks in an emotionless tone, all the while performing gruesome acts with the cold and calculating look of a serial killer. In one scene, he shows the captive Ophelia a shocking video on his phone. When she reacts by spitting all over his face, he laps up her saliva from his face and fingers as if he was licking off the tasty, greasy herbs and spices from fried chicken. The contents of the video carried enough weight to satisfy him and he plays off Ophelia spitting in his face like it was a gift. Sick, I know, but Del Toro really goes places with this character that many other actors would not have achieved. In a better film, Del Toro would\u2019ve flourished even more, but the average plot holds the entire thing back.\nNeither of the film\u2019s main characters really shine in any given scene. Kitsch has worn out his welcome and comes across as neither tough or believable. Johnson is descent and is definitely right for the role, but the whole three way thing with Lively proves to be more of a distraction than a viable plot device. Travolta has a bit of fun in his scene with Del Toro, but other than that he makes no real impact. Hayek at first comes off tough as nails, but how can she be the leader of the biggest drug cartel in Mexico, yet show so much weakness at a crucial point in the story? Fortunately for her, Del Toro proves to be the real savage.\nStone seems content with directing this by the numbers and that\u2019s a shame. If anyone has the ability to take a script like this and set it apart, it would be him. For some reason, \u201cSavages\u201d is missing all of the creative flair Stone is most famous for. Everyone of his characters are high on something every minute of the film, yet we never get a sequence depicting the character\u2019s feelings or thoughts the way we have in his other films. Think Charlie Sheen\u2019s memorable first puff in \u201cPlatoon\u201d with Jefferson Starship\u2019s \u201cWhite Rabbit\u201d playing in the background, or simply think of every scene in \u201cNatural Born Killers\u201d. \u201cSavages\u201d is missing that key ingredient to set it apart from your average crime film and because of that, all your getting is the film equivalent of the \u201cWalmart\u201d drugs the characters in the film frequently speak of. Is this film solid? It is, but no one will ever bring it up when recalling Stone\u2019s best films, which to me meant watching something that was painfully average. GRADE: C",

During the beginning of her reign skirts were extremely full, before the invention of the crinoline in 1856, a lady would have worn a maximum of six petticoats it was considered essential for decency as well as fashion. By the late 1860s it reached its most extreme width & began to subside. The 'bustle' first appeared around 1870s, with festooning drapery both at the front and back & 1876 saw fullness waning & a more slender silhouette was preferable. A new bustle appeared in 1884, throwing the skirt out horizontally giving the appearance of the hind quarters of a horse. The bustle vanished around 1893 leaving only a pad. Gentlemen's dress was simple in comparison.",

        "raw_content": "Home / News / Being and the River\nSo many things happen in a person\u2019s life. Mine was no different. looking back on growing up, I realize that the summer season gave me my most memorable experiences, the bulk of which were quite happy. Even as I marched into adulthood, that time of year gave me the greatest joy in the simplest of ways. My birthday precedes the first day of spring by a few days. 1998 was ~ 50th year to heaven. I knew that I had much to be thankful for, but I was dislocated in a way and to an extent that I cannot really explain.\nAs spring wore on that year, it seemed that even summer was going to fail me. The two previous years had taken an enormous toll on my family. In June of 1996, my 34 year old nephew and law partner had died of cancer after several years of horrible suffering. He left two infant children and a devastated wife. In July of 1997, my wife\u2019s father, with whom I had been very close, died of cancer after several months of pain and suffering. In January of 1998, my mother died after a long struggle with Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Two months later, my father took a severe heart attack in Florida on the same day I was supposed to leave for a birthday holiday in San Francisco. I spent the next three weeks in two different Florida hospitals, helping my father survive (which he did). In May of 1998, after much travail, but still unexpectedly, my older sister died of a rare neurological disorder, only two days after her 59th birthday.\nBy mid-June, I felt myself hitting the wall emotionally. It was all I could do to get up in the morning and go to work. I felt like I couldn\u2019t do anything, but didn\u2019t know how not to do what I had always done. Toughing- it out had always been the way in my family tradition, but this was different. I knew I was in trouble in a way I could not express and did not know what to do about it. About ten years before, I had attended a five day summer program organized and run by Wayne Diotte and various associates of his at his rural home in a conservation district on te banks of the Missisippi River in a little village called Blakeney, about an hour by car from Ottawa. Several months before that, my other sister had introduced me to macrobiotic foods which I had liked at once.\nI wanted to learn more about macrobiotics, and particularly how to use the techniques offered in macrobiotics to help myself my family and my friends. Many people felt I overdid it, proselytized, and was generally tiresome about the subject. They were probably right. I remembered the place fairly well, it was simple, spare, clean, peacefull out of the way and within a few hundred yards of one of the loveliest rivers I had seen in Canada. The river was a winding one , which flowed to the magnetic north. It was also the only known spawning area for a rare freshwater fish known as the River Red Horse which is an endangered species. Those two facts alone distinguished this particular river. That first exposure to the river and the wonderful conservation district through which it passes was very cursory for me seemed like just a pleasant adjunct to the lectures, seminars, cooking lessons, eating and socializing that were taking place. In hindsight, I realize that I only skimmed the river environment and what it really could offer, the memory of that experience lingered however~ and must have left the hint of greater promise.\nIn a moment of desperate inspiration, I called information and tracked down Wayne Diotte\u2019s phone number. I rang him early one June morning. I recounted my tale of woe after reintroducing myself. He and his assistant, Corinne Van Der Velden, agreed to take me in for a five day individual program which included personal consultation, shiatsu massage, ginger compresses, walks on the country roads, stretching, and guided river exploration. There were also wonderful macrobiotic meals with many ingredients grown on the premises, bicycle riding, meditation and lots of solitary time in the river and elsewhere.\nIt took me four apprehensive hours to come by car from my home in Toronto to Wayne\u2019s house. He had acquired an 1875 vintage farmhouse close to his home which he had renovated as a guest house and furnished minimally with stark white walls and Japanese style mattresses on the floor in the guestrooms. The uncluttered quiet of these premises appealed to me immediately upon entering. I think I was vaguely disappointed when I realized that I was the only guest there for those few days. A short time thereafter, however, I began to appreciate the solitude those circumstances allowed me. The day following my arrival, Wayne took me on a guided exploration of the park and the river. I began to see the area in a way I had not even contemplated that first time ten years before.\nThe exploration began with an invigorating adventure that consisted of jumping off the riverbank under the access bridge where the river begins to drop and the water is quite wild. Wayne hung a rope from the center of the bridge railing with a wooden branch handle at the end of it dangling just above the waters swirling and frothing surface. If you missed the rope, the strong current caught you and swept you down a chute about 60 feet or so to a little eddy where you could scramble back to the river bank It was like a full body slide, and was most exhilarating.\nOf course, I missed the handle on the first attempt. I had grown up at a lakefront cottage, and knew the outdoors and how to handle myself around water. This simple failure humbled me and opened me up to just: how off the mark I was in my then current state. On my second attempt, with Wayne\u2019s coaching, I caught the handle and swung on that rope as long as I could. First I held on with two hands, on my front, then on my back, and afterwards with one hand, front and back. I raised myself and dropped down again. I hung from my legs, back and front, side to side, and so on until I was exhausted and had to let go.\nWhat a letting go that was, with the sun shining, the water churning and the force of the current carrying me forward. I remember feeling how good it was to be alive in those few seconds. I started my river time each day thereafter the same way. Later, Wayne walked me through the park and down the riverbank. We forded the river barefoot in our bathing suits, always stepping on the highest point on the rocks underfoot He showed me nooks and crannies my untutored eye might otherwise have missed. He opened the way to some of the most serene and glorious spots I have ever been to, including one incredible white water Canyon where the swirling and frothing water comes in from four or five different directions, and a body can wedge into the froth and absorb the forces of unmasked nature running through.\nI could spend many pages describing the simple experiences of putting your bare feet onto the warm, carpet-like, exposed red tree roots on the river bank; Or climbing up barefoot Onto the top of a little rock island in the stream to find a warm spongy rug of years of pine needles underfoot, and picking and tasting wild raspberries and blueberries a few feet from there; or finding a long, flat, exposed rock out in the middle of a little tributary slipstream with a tree growing on it, partially shading it, and lying on your back there in the heat and light of the summer afternoon, feeling the timeless glory of being. It was there, in the warm delight of those moments that it came to me that I would have to return to this place, time and again. I made a promise to myself then and there that I would strive to come back here the same time every year; and so I have. In the late afternoons, I would make my way back to the white house and prepare for my ginger compress or my shiatsu massage depending on what was scheduled. Those treatments were like icing on the cake, allowing me to take my emotional leave and put things into that flowing context that I had always worked so hard to achieve.\nThe dinners which followed those sessions were always simple and excellent, the surprise dessert always left me with a smile, Following dinner, I would take Wayne\u2019s mountain bike and ride aimlessly through the back roads, admiring the birds and flowers in the farmers\u2019 fields and the other rural sights that took so little effort to enjoy. A nearby town called Pakenham a few miles away that has an incredible stone bridge across another part of the same river is always a worthy destination.\nUpon return from those bicycle rides in the later evenings, I would hike down through the forest behind Wayne\u2019s cottage property across the road from his house to the riverbank on yet another part of the river facing a waterfall where the water was very calm and placid. There, I would bathe in the dim light of dusk and then lie down to dry on the flat rocks which were very warm at that point in the day as the heat went out of the water into the land. There was always a sweet sadness that went through me just before hiking back up through the woods to the white house as that day gave way to night. I felt clear and easy. Sleep came so quickly it was all I could do to read a few pages of one of the several books I had brought to occupy myself. I slept with the window fully open to the night breezes and sounds of the country village. The sleep was never long but always restful and unburdened.\nI could easily go on at much greater length about what a great coach Wayne is; what an incredible nourishing cook Corinne is; what a great hideout this place offers; but I am sure you can see it all from what I have already said.\nIn summing up my thoughts about this part of my life experience, I cannot help but present two unrelated quotations which bear great significance for me:\n\u201cSometimes all you have left to win is the knowledge of why you are taking the beating, and the realization that no one will save you from it.\u201d\nFrom \u201cA River Runs Through It\u201d by Norman Maclean\n\u201cThe race is not to the swift, but to those who can stand still and let the waves go over them,\u201d\nLes Wittlin",

        "title": "Federal Budget \u2013 Many Things Considered",
        "raw_content": "Baseball, Federal Budget, Immigration, Politics\nWhile the computer woes of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) continue to dominate all minds inside the Beltway it is easy to forget that we are just weeks downstream from the 16 day government shutdown and more weeks away from another more-likely-than-not clash over spending and debt that leads us to who knows what.\nWashington Sen. Patty Murray and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, the chairs of the Congressional budget committees, continue talking in an effort to craft a federal budget deal that will soften the impact of the so called \u201csequestration\u201d cuts; the cuts that have dented, without much thought or precision, virtually every budget from the Pentagon to the Centers for Disease Control.\nAs Politico notes \u201cit is still entirely likely that the talks could fall apart, leading to yet another bitter partisan impasse, something that once again seemed possible after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell addressed the spending issue at a closed-door House GOP Conference on Tuesday. And any deal would be small in comparison to the $17.1 trillion national debt, potentially with proposals to replace one year of sequestration cuts \u2014 worth $110 billion \u2014 or something smaller, with more targeted cuts.\u201d\nEnter the Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt attack aircraft as a perfect object lesson of why controlling federal spending is so difficult \u2013 maybe even impossible. Earlier this year the Air Force served notice it was looking at a potential phase out of the A-10, a single-purpose aircraft that has, by most accounts, proved its utility as a weapon to support ground troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. The plane was originally envisioned in the 1970\u2019s as a \u201ctank killer\u201d when U.S. war planners were still worried about Soviet military designs on Europe. The A-10, long a staple of Air National Guard units in at least nine state \u2013 including Idaho \u2013 could, the Air Force says, be replaced by a new generation multi-purpose aircraft, the F-35A.\nIn a nutshell, Air Force brass say the demands of sequestration, budgeting by across-the-board cuts imposed by a Congress unable or unwilling to make hard decisions about priorities, leaves them scrambling to make billions in spending cuts over the next ten years. Given the development of a new multi-purpose aircraft, which just happens to be the most expensive weapons system ever invented, maybe, just maybe the A-10\u2019s days are numbered.\nAir National Guard director Lt. Gen. Stanley Clarke III, himself once a pilot of the plane known as The Warthog, recently said the Air Force was \u201clooking at reducing single mission aircraft\u201d and under the sequestration process \u201cwe\u2019re not getting any more money.\u201d\nThe Air Force, Clarke said, \u201chas to have a fifth generation force out there\u201d of stealthy, fast and maneuverable aircraft, and the low and slow A-10 just didn\u2019t fit in.\nBut wait a just a gosh darn minute says a bi-partisan group in Congress most of whom would happily call themselves deficit hawks. Missouri\u2019s two Senators, a Democrat and Republican, Idaho\u2019s Mike Crapo and New Hampshire\u2019s Kelly Ayotte have taken the lead, along with legislators from, among other places, Arkansas, Georgia and Arizona, in telling Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel to take it easy on the A-10.\n\u201cWe write to express our deep concern regarding the Air Force\u2019s plan to divest the A-10 Thunderbolt II,\u201d the letter says before touching on the obvious. \u201cWe appreciate that the Air Force confronts significant budget pressure and uncertainty that require difficult decisions.\u201d They might well have added, just don\u2019t make decisions we disagree with.\nThe late Tip O\u2019Neill famously said \u201call politics is local\u201d and that is doubly true of A-10 Air Force politics. It is no coincidence that National Guard units in Idaho, Missouri, Arizona, Georgia and Arkansas fly the A-10 and basing those aircraft in a state means millions to the local economy. Sen. Ayotte apparently has her own local political consideration. Her husband once flew an A-10. A front page column in today\u2019s Arizona Daily Star in Tucson takes the state\u2019s two Republican Senators \u2013 John McCain and Jeff Flake \u2013 to task for staying out, at least so far, of the fray over the future of the A-10. The piece speculates that McCain and Flake are really holding out for the new generation F-35 aircraft to be based at Phoenix\u2019s Luke Air Force Base and are willing to sacrifice the current A-10 mission at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base at Tucson in order to make nice to the Air Force.\nAll of this could easily be written off to typical home state support for an air force base and mission if so much money weren\u2019t involved. Congress, after all, and both parties are responsible, has created a budget environment where rationale decision making based on national priorities long ago ceased to exist. Just for the record Bloomberg reports that the Pentagon\u2019s \u201cprojected price tag of $391.2 billion for a fleet of 2,443 [F-35] aircraft is a 68 percent increase from the projection in 2001, as measured in current dollars. The number of aircraft also is 409 fewer than called for in the original program.\u201d That is generally referred to as less for more budgeting.\nAir Force and Pentagon brass, who knew how to play old Washington budget game of spreading around the missions and the weapons production, have now been left with a series of bad options and have not surprisingly concluded that they apparently can\u2019t really have it all \u2013 a new, ultra-expensive aircraft that is costing billions more than expected and the continuation of an old, tried-and-true warhorse.\nSince we\u2019re talking tradeoffs: the average $29 a month food stamp cut now being absorbed by 47 million Americans is projected to save $39 billion over the next decade and has been justified by its proponents as a necessary step that closes \u201cloopholes, ensures work requirements, and puts us on a fiscally responsible path.\u201d\nOf course many of the same legislators who are telling the Air Force not to be in a rush to phase out the old A-10 until it can demonstrate that the new F-35 has proven that it is worth every nickel of the $391 billion and climbing we are spending on it would be the first to make a sober speech about the necessity of bringing the federal budget under control, including doing something about awful runaway spending on food for some of the poorest Americans.\nRarely are the dilemmas of a completely broken Washington, where budgets that often lack any strategic purpose are regularly made on the fly and by the seat of the pants, better illustrated than in the current fight over an old, slow airplane. Oh, yes, we might also note that with a U.S. combat role ended in Iraq and coming to an end in Afghanistan the U.S. still continues to spend more on its military \u2013 a cool $668 billion last year \u2013 than all of Asia, Europe and Russia combined.\nI\u2019m still waiting for the speech that explains how that level of military spending puts the country on a fiscally responsible path.\nAmerican Presidents, Baseball, Federal Budget, Immigration, Obama, Politics\nOK, what does Barack Obama do now?\nThe president might start by remembering that there are three things in politics that can be enormously powerful, but are almost always vastly underrated particularly by risk averse officeholders. The three are acting against type, the element of surprise and the importance of timing.\nMr. Obama could grab on to all three tactics in the wake of the Republican disaster over the federal government shut down and the close encounter of the weird kind with the debt ceiling. The big three could help salvage his second term.\nFirst is timing. The president must have woke up this morning and smiled while thinking that Sen. Ted Cruz, the gift that keeps on giving, is in the United States Senate. Cruz\u2019s Tea Party-fueled crusade to defund Obamacare flamed out like a shooting star over west Texas and left the president with a stronger hand and a united Democratic Party. Sen. Cruz is more popular than ever with a vastly unpopular movement, while Congressional Republicans remain badly divided and without a coherent domestic agenda. The timing, therefore, is right for Mr. Obama to Go Big with a budget, revenue and reform proposal.\nNext, let\u2019s consider surprise. During so much of his presidency Mr. Obama has been content, even comfortable, letting Congress take the lead on big things. He did it with his signature Affordable Care Act (ACA) and completely lost control of the political message, a problem that he has never again been able to get in front of. Nancy Pelosi became the face of health care reform and the anti-Obama crowd skillfully framed the issue as a socialist, big government, job killing takeover of health care. Now, during the brief breathing spell post-shut down, the country and the GOP fully expect Obama to sit back and leave the avoidance of the next shut down and the next default dodge to a bunch of members of Congress who are completely focused on the next election. This is the old approach of trying the same thing over and over and hoping for different results. It\u2019s insanity.\nSurprise would be for Mr. Obama to lay out in a series of speeches, town hall meetings, interviews and news conferences a detailed plan to get budget/revenue and entitlement reform in place. Timing could meet surprise.\nFinally, it\u2019s time for the president to go against type. History may well record that the single worst decision of the president\u2019s tenure was to turn his back on the Bowles -Simpson bi-partisan \u201cgrand bargain\u201d to fix the budget, revenues and entitlements for a decade or more, while starting to reduce the national debt. Of course, Mr. Obama tried to make The Big Deal with House Speaker John Boehner and failed, but he also quietly walked away from Bowles-Simpson when he should have clutched the framework. Remember that he created The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and the co-chairs Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson developed a real plan that gained bi-partisan Congressional support.\nThe timing, surprise factor and going against type, in this case embracing some GOP needs and holding off the left wing of of his own party, make great second term sense. Political commentator Andrew Sullivan has the same idea, as he has written:\n\u201cIf the GOP were a genuinely conservative party, actually interested in long-term government solvency and reform within our current system of government, they would jump at this. They could claim to have reduced tax rates, even if the net result were higher taxes. And the brutal fact is that, given simply our demographics, higher taxes are going to be necessary if we are to avoid gutting our commitments to the seniors of tomorrow. They could concede that and climb down from this impossibly long limb they have constructed for themselves.\n\u201cI\u2019ve long favored a Grand Bargain,\u201d Sullivan continues, \u201cbut recognize its huge political liabilities without the leadership of both parties genuinely wanting to get there. But for Obama, it seems to me, re-stating such a possibility and embracing it more than he has ever done, is a win-win.\u201d\nFor a politician with such obvious rhetoric gifts, Mr. Obama has a strange inability to state the most obvious things in simple, direct and understandable terms.\nIn the wake of the huge GOP meltdown, as the Washington Post\u2019s Dana Milbank has written, Mr. Obama \u201cspoke abstractly about \u2018the long-term obligations that we have around things like Medicare and Social Security.\u2019 He was similarly elliptical in saying he wants \u2018a budget that cuts out the things that we don\u2019t need, closes corporate tax loopholes that don\u2019t help create jobs, and frees up resources for the things that do help us grow, like education and infrastructure and research.\u2019\n\u201cLaudable ideas all,\u201d Milbank says, but timidly said and lacking in real-world details. \u201cTimidity and ambiguity in the past have not worked for Obama. The way to break down a wall of Republican opposition is to do what he did the past two weeks: stake out a clear position and stick to it. A plan for a tax-code overhaul? A Democratic solution to Medicare\u2019s woes? As in the budget and debt fights, the policy is less important than the president\u2019s ability to frame a simple message and repeat it with mind-numbing regularity.\u201d Exactly.\nAre there risks involved? Sure, but what does Mr. Obama really want out of the rest of his second term? Months and months of partisan haggling over non-issues? He should embrace the risk and put it all out on the table, otherwise why be president?\nI suspect if one the smart pollsters measuring the declining standing of Sen. Cruz and the Tea Party\u2019s approach to non-governance would ask one additional question they would find that the vast majority of Americans are ready \u2013 in fact clamoring for \u2013 real straight talk about specific policies that end the politics of going to the budget brink every few months.\nThe question I\u2019d like to see asked in a national poll is pretty simple: \u201cIf President Obama proposed a specific plan to reduce long-term federal spending, reduce tax exemptions and lower tax rates, while ensuring the long-term viability of Social Security and Medicare would you be in favor?\u201d\nI\u2019m betting the overwhelming answer would be YES. Timing, Surprise and Acting Against Type = a political strategy. That strategy is \u2013 Go Big.\nBaucus, Federal Budget, Immigration, U.S. Senate\nUnless you hail from the great state of Mississippi there is a good chance you\u2019ve never heard of Sen. Byron Patton Harrison. That\u2019s him nearby in a 1940 photo. The current dysfunction in Washington, D.C. is cause enough to remember senators like Harrison. Unfortunately now days, like the dodo bird, senators like Pat Harrison are mostly extinct.\nHarrison \u2013 everyone called him Pat \u2013 wouldn\u2019t recognize the U.S. Senate today and I\u2019m guessing he\u2019d be appalled by the current leaders, Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell.\nIn the late 1930\u2019s, Pat Harrison, who served in the U.S. House and Senate from 1919 to 1941, was arguably the most influential member of the U.S. Senate. Harrison was both Senate President Pro Tem and Chairman of the powerful tax writing Finance Committee. As Harrison\u2019s biographer Martha H. Swain has written, by 1939 the wily Mississippian was at the height of his powers.\n\u201cThat year [1939] Washington newspapers voted him the \u2018most influential\u2019 senator,\u201d Swain said. \u201cTurner Catledge, the Mississippi-born managing editor of the New York Times, had described the Mississippian as the best \u2018horse-trader\u2019 for his way of cajoling colleagues to pass his Finance Committee legislation. His influence, Catledge said, stemmed from the fact that Harrison never \u2018welched\u2019 on a promise: \u2018If Harrison told you something you could take it to the bank.\u2019\u201d\nHarrison was a loyal Democrat and pushed Franklin Roosevelt\u2019s Social Security legislation through his committee and the Senate in 1935, but at the same time refused to rubber stamp FDR\u2019s \u201csoak-the-rich\u201d tax legislation. Unlike today\u2019s Senators, Harrison believed he could be both a loyal Democrat and his own man. That view got his at cross purposes with Roosevelt who, unwisely it turned out, opposed Harrison\u2019s effort to become Senate majority leader in 1937. Even though Harrison lost that contest by one vote, ironically, and this was a testament to his reputation for candor and independence, he became even more highly regarded in the Senate after his defeat.\nEven Roosevelt eventually came to acknowledge that Harrison was the go-to guy in the Senate. Because his word was good, and without regard to their early disagreements, FDR entrusted to Harrison the delicate job of easing controversial Lend Lease legislation through the Senate in 1941.\nNot quite 60 years old, Harrison died later in 1941 of colon cancer. His death brought an bipartisan outpouring of sadness and regard. Roosevelt said of the Senate power broker that he was \u201ckeen of intellect, sound in principle, shrewd in judgment [with] rare gifts of kindly wit, humor, and irony.\u201d\nA newspaper editor back in Mississippi said Harrison was \u201csquare, approachable, and intensely human.\u201d\nOver the past weekend talks to avoid the so called \u201cfiscal cliff\u201d broke down \u2013 again \u2013 in the Senate and Vice President Joe Biden stepped in to attempt to salvage some kind of deal with GOP leader McConnell. Biden was needed, in part its reported, because Democratic leader Reid and his Republican opposite number don\u2019t trust each other. Put another way, Reid and McConnell are so busy jockeying to win partisan debating points that they have no time to be national lawmakers.\nLots of things are wrong with the way the D.C dysfunction has brought the country, still reeling from an economic collapse, to the edge of another disaster, but I\u2019ll mention just two: trust and process.\nNo good deal \u2013 and all politics is about making a deal \u2013 ever gets done when leaks and dueling soundbites constantly trickle out from both sides. The fact that both sides in this manufactured crisis are \u201cnegotiating\u201d on Twitter and cable news is all the evidence we need that they don\u2019t fundamentally possess the basic ingredient needed to do a deal \u2013 trust. When is the last time you heard someone say about a current Senate leader, as they did in the 1930\u2019s about the mostly forgotten Pat Harrison, he never \u201cwelched\u201d on a deal?\nReid and McConnell are so focused on the tactical daily soundbite and gaining the tiniest sliver of advantage over the other that they can\u2019t be, to borrow a phrase, \u201csquare, approachable and intensely human.\u201d\nA second issue with this \u201cfiscal cliff\u201d is one of process. The legislative process is supposed to involve committee work, hearings, drafting of proposals, amendments and debate. Pat Harrison did not pass Social Security in 1935 by getting together with a couple of other senators and presenting a bill on the floor as a take it, or leave it proposition. He did what legislators are supposed to do \u2013 legislate, work with his committee, try this and try that and produce a bill that is then voted upon.\nIf a fiscal cliff deal gets done it will end up being a cobbled together mess born in secret and presented as a done deal to the House and Senate. Most of the people in Congress who should be involved \u2013 the chairs of the Finance and House Ways and Means Committees, for example \u2013 will have been about as close to the action and you and me.\nFor weekend amusement I didn\u2019t watch the endless talking heads on the fiscal cliff, but rather tuned into the NPR quiz show \u201cWait, Wait Don\u2019t Tell Me\u201d where a panel of smart and funny people crack wise about news and popular culture. The celebrity guest this past weekend was the current British ambassador to the United States Sir Peter Westmacott, a career foreign service officer with a wicked sense of humor.\nAt once point Sir Peter was asked a question about the differences in the British and American political \u201ccultures.\u201d It was the kind of question that most political people would have answered with a vague generality. Instead, Her Majesty\u2019s ambassador said it seems to him that the U.S. system was designed [in colonial times] to \u2013 his word \u2013 avoid \u201ctyranny\u201d that might be imported from across the oceans and, as a result, the the U.S. set up a system \u201cdesigned not to work.\u201d\nThe quip from the witty Brit got a big laugh from the audience, a knowing laugh, the kind of laugh that says, \u201cyup, he\u2019s right\u2026\u201d\nThe Congress that will die along with the old year will go down in history as one of the most unproductive in recent history. First, the members of Congress and the president created the pending crisis of automatic tax increases and spending cuts because months ago they couldn\u2019t agree on a a real legislative fix, the kind of fix that would have required the hard, bipartisan work of legislating. Then, knowing exactly what would happen if they behaved as they have, Congress diddled right up until the absolute last minute \u2013 and likely beyond \u2013 to come up with what will undoubtedly be a half-baked, non-solution.\nMuch kicking of cans down the road will follow.\nThe Senate of Pat Harrison\u2019s day would have been embarrassed by such political amateurism, such willing abandonment of the basic responsibilities of governance. While the country shakes its collective head at its hyper-partisan, broken system and, while even the British ambassador feels compelled to joke about the yokels in the former colonies, the nation\u2019s ruling class fiddles and fusses. They should be embarrassed, but most don\u2019t seem to be. After all, you have to be aware that something is wrong in order to be embarrassed enough to try and fix it.\n2012 Election, American Presidents, Federal Budget, Immigration, Minnick, Obama, Pete Seeger, Romney\nNary a Word\nFormer Republican Sen. Alan Simpson has one message in his post-Senate life as a truth teller about the nation\u2019s fiscal health. Simpson is preaching the gospel of budget and tax reform to anyone who will listen. Unfortunately the candidates for President of the United States, the men who will have to deal with the great unspoken issue of this election, the looming fiscal crisis, cannot seem to summon the political courage to level with the voters and talk as candidly as Al Simpson does about the stark choices facing the next president and the next Congress.\nWe\u2019re left with Al Simpson and thank God we have him.\nSimpson, as funny as he is pithy, complained in 2011 interview about the younger generation. \u201cGrandchildren now don\u2019t write a thank you for the Christmas presents,\u201d he said. \u201cThey are walking on their pants with their cap on backward, listening to the Enema Man and Snoopy, Snoopy Poop Dog.\u201d Funny stuff, but even more importantly, Simpson is speaking truth about the fiscal mess in America and the lack of political will to take it on.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t cut spending your way out of this hole,\u201d Simpson, who was appointed as co-chair of President Obama\u2019s Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform in 2010, said. \u201cYou can\u2019t grow your way out of this hole, and you can\u2019t tax your way out of this hole. So put that in your pipe and smoke it, we tell these people. This is madness.\u201d\nThe famously outspoken Simpson knows what needs to be done to get the nation\u2019s fiscal house in order \u2013 everything. Raise taxes and reform the tax code, address entitlements, including Medicare and Social Security, cut defense spending and much else in the federal budget. The debt, fiscal, tax and budget problems are so profound and the medicine to fix the problems so Castor oil-like that only old fashioned political compromise \u2013 bipartisan compromise \u2013 can make it go down with the American public. Democrats will have to come to the party ready to get serious about Medicare and their pet programs. Republicans have to put on the shelf their time-tested mantra of tax cuts as the solution for every economic problem and address a defense budget bloated by two wars and the world-wide deployment of Americans on a scale that rivals the one-time British Empire. Everyone has to give \u2013 and soon.\nAs I have written in this space in the past, President Obama had his statesmanship moment on fiscal and budget policy some time back and he chose to punt. The politics of embracing the recommendations laid out by Simpson and his fiscal commission co-chair Erskine Bowles must have seemed too risky. Obama\u2019s decision was both shortsighted and ultimately politically inept. Had he embraced the recommendations and spent the last few months campaigning on that basis he would have both a forward-looking message about the economy and, should he win re-election, a real mandate to do something with the debt and taxes. Instead we are left with a virtually insignificant fight between Obama\u2019s plan to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans and Mitt Romney\u2019s plan to further cut taxes in the face of mounting budget deficits. Romney says he would also cut federal spending, but beyond virtually insignificant cuts to tiny, ideologically-driven items like the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities, he won\u2019t get specific. (By the way, the combined budgets of CPB and the endowments would hardly cover a few hours of interest on the national debt.) Romney\u2019s lack of specifics shows, as does the president\u2019s fiscal posture, both a lack of policy seriousness and political courage.\nHere is what\u2019s at stake post-November. Because of the failure earlier this year by Congress, which deserves most of the blame, and the president to reach any kind of an accommodation on spending cuts and revenue increases automatic budget cuts will go into effect at the end of the year and Bush-era tax cuts, already extended by Obama, will expire. The country will be over the fiscal cliff you\u2019ve been hearing about. The nation\u2019s credit rating will be further downgraded and the economy will head back toward recession. I\u2019m betting most Americans, be they Tea Partiers or far left progressives, don\u2019t understand the extent of the mess that the next president will face. How could they when the two men contending to lead the country say nary a word about the problem.\nSo, to be clear, the year end problem will be, and this is no exaggeration, a fiscal crisis on par with the economic melt down in 2008. Fasten your seat belts.\nIt all could have been avoided \u2013 and still could \u2013 had a few key political players been more concerned about the future their kids will inherit than the outcome of the next election. Instead of a real debate about the nation\u2019s fiscal future, Romney has relied on demonstrably false claims about Obama destroying the work requirement for Americans on public assistance. Rather than build understanding among confused Americans and create a mandate to govern in his second term, Obama has run a campaign of small ideas and puny aspirations. Neither man seems to have the courage of any convictions about what really has to be done, which brings us back to Al Simpson.\nIt would be easy to say that the lanky Cody, Wyoming lawyer, out of public office after three terms in the Senate, is a man liberated by not needing to worry about saying unpopular, but true things. But that\u2019s not Simpson. He\u2019s always been willing to shake things up with his candor, which made him the perfect man to join former Clinton Administration Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles as a co-chair of the National Fiscal Commission popularly called Simpson-Bowles. Still, it has taken real political courage for both men \u2013 and Idaho Sen. Mike Crapo, who served on the Commission \u2013 to call for real sacrifice and real bipartisan agreement about reform. (GOP vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan also served on the Simpson-Bowles Commission and, unlike Crapo, did not back the proposals the Commission developed. Still, Simpson said recently that Ryan knows his stuff and was a serious player on the Commission.)\nNo serious person in Washington, D.C. would tell you that the nation faces anything but huge and painful choices post-election, but the candidates essentially are ignoring the biggest issue of the year because they have made the political calculation that talking seriously about it is a political loser.\nOn September 18 in Boise, Al Simpson will receive a new award for political leadership created by The Andrus Center for Public Policy at Boise State University. The award has been created to recognize genuine accomplishment and a commitment to bipartisanship. Simpson deserves that kind of recognition. It\u2019s a shame the two men running for president can\u2019t summon up the same courage and commitment. One of them will have to find some political guts in mid-November. The fiscal cliff the current crowd in Washington created is looming.\nSuper Committee Fails, Country Burns\nAt its birthing the Super Committee seemed to have it all \u2013 bi-partisan endorsement from both houses of Congress, senior and generally respected bi-partisan leaders, a sense of urgency and a hopeful nation, if not exactly hanging on its every move, at least positioned to accept its verdict.\nAs was probably all too predictable, it came to ashes. No one \u2013 Democrat or Republican \u2013 was willing to risk the wrath of the most unreasonable in their party. The entire idea of a Super Committee was badly flawed, possibly even unconstitutional, but what to expect from a Congress that can only think as far ahead as the next CNN debate or next week\u2019s Sunday talking head shows?\nIt hasn\u2019t always been so. In the spring of 1964 it seemed to many observers utterly impossible that the United States Senate, still dominated by southern conservatives who held key committee positions, could possibly join the House of Representatives and pass a civil rights bill. But, in 1964, the U.S. Senate had real leaders: Mike Mansfield of Montana for the Democrats and Everett McKinley Dirksen of Illinois for the Republicans. Utilizing his mastery of Senate rules, Mansfield first prevented the civil rights bill, a legislative priority of President Lyndon Johnson, from being referred to the southern-dominated Judiciary Committee where the wily former copper mucker from Butte knew that it would die a quiet death.\nWith the bill on the Senate floor for consideration \u2013 and filibuster \u2013 Mansfield patiently puffed on his pipe, let the Senate work it\u2019s will and effectively involved his Republican counterpart in every step of strategy. By the time the bill passed after a 54 day talkfest, Dirksen thought the whole thing had been his idea. Mansfield used quiet persuasion, senatorial courtesy, time and history to pass the bill with 73 \u201cyes\u201d votes.\nMansfield\u2019s aides objected that their boss had let Dirksen have too much of the credit, even going so far as to \u2013 perish the thought in today\u2019s Washington \u2013 walk to Dirksen\u2019s office for meetings and press availabilities. Dirksen made the daily comments to the press. Dirksen was quoted. Dirksen was engineering the strategy. Or so it seemed. Mansfield even stood in the back when LBJ signed the landmark legislation in order to stay out of the celebratory photographs. The great Senate leader explained to his staff that he needed Dirksen more than he needed the publicity. That is how history used to be made, at least once in a while, in the United States Senate.\nIt has been the good fortune of the United States of America when faced with moments of great challenge, indeed even peril, to have emerge from our messy politics the right leader at the right time. Would independence have come in the first place without a Washington? Would the Union have survived without a Jackson and a Lincoln? Would a Great Depression and a world war been wiped without a Roosevelt? The times we face are hardly as tough as the Civil War or waging World War II, but the lack of real leadership \u2013 leadership in the broad public interest \u2013 has rarely seemed as lacking as it does today.\nA real test of leadership \u2013 political or otherwise \u2013 is to have the courage to go against the dominate direction, especially the dominate direction of your friends. Some would argue that the folks on the Super Committee never had a chance since the Congress is such a toxic place and the influence of those with single and very special agendas so dominate our politics. Maybe. Then again, if you go back over the record of the last several months of effort to craft a budget and debt deal, you\u2019ll find that neither side really tried to get a deal. The talking points were so predictable, so scripted, that this show might as well have followed the Kardashians on reality TV.\nAs Politico\u2019s Mike Allen noted on Sunday, the last time the Supers met as a committee was on November 1st! Allen, who admits he was initially optimistic, as I was, that the group would find some common ground, now concludes the whole thing was a bit of a sham.\nThe deficit remains. The nation\u2019s fiscal house is not only not in order, but remains in a seriously fragile state. All political eyes, meanwhile, are singlemindedly fixed on 2012 and how to carve the narrowest possible advantage from the politics of the moment. Yet a serious sense remains that the broad middle of the country is truly ready for serious leadership; leadership that takes risks, makes decisions, talks truth to the fringes of both parties and compromises with the other side.\nIs that person \u2013 persons \u2013 out there? Let\u2019s hope so. The nation yearns for the kind of leadership Mike Mansfield and Everett Dirksen once provided. We need it again.\nYou thought perhaps that Thanksgiving was all about Grandma\u2019s cranberry relish, Aunt Mae\u2019s pumpkin pie and a nap on the sofa while a football game hums in the background. Not this year. The Super Committee, the 12 Senators and Representatives charged with saving the Republic, may finally prove decisively that turkeys can\u2019t fly. The Committee, ceded the authority of the rest of the Congress in order to come up with a deficit, budget and revenue deal, is due to report November 23 just in time to spoil the real turkey day. Gobble, gobble.\nSenior lawmakers are already predicting failure for the scheme that was hatched as part of the dubious deal earlier this year to raise the debt ceiling. It looks like the Gang of Twelve won\u2019t fare any better than the other 523 members of Congress in crafting a sensible, bipartisan plan to control federal spending without destroying the still fragile U.S. economy.\nGive some serious credit to guys like Idaho\u2019s Mike Simpson and North Carolina\u2019s Heath Shuler for seeming to buck their leadership while calling for the Super Committee to \u201cgo big\u201d with a plan that will actually accomplish something for the long term. Simpson and Shuler are signers, along with 98 other bipartisan House members, of a letter to the committee that urges them to be serious about finding middle ground, while leaving \u2013 Thanksgiving-style \u2013 nothing off the table. No sign the Super Dozen are listening.\nAs we edge closer to the actual Presidential Election Year, expect to hear more and more references to two other elections in the 20th Century \u2013 1936 and 1984. In both those years, incumbent presidents \u2013 Franklin Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan \u2013 were facing re-election hampered by high unemployment and a sluggish economy. Both won re-election with historic landslides. (The White House loves this history lesson, you can bet.)\nIn Roosevelt\u2019s case he squandered his mandate with an ill-consider and historically awful idea about expanding the Supreme Court. Reagan turned his attention to foreign policy. Reagan did little, despite much revisionist history today, to control federal spending. FDR, pushed by his conservative Treasury Secretary Henry Morganthau, got nervous about the growing budget deficits spurred by New Deal spending and he quickly applied the brakes in 1937. The resulting Roosevelt Recession sent unemployment back up and the economy stalled. More agile than any politician today, Roosevelt quickly reversed course and start spending money again to create economic activity.\nThere is a school of economic thought that holds that the Super Committee would do the economy a favor by failing to concoct a grand plan since any grand plan will ultimately reduce federal spending \u2013 think defense \u2013 and eliminate many jobs. That may prove to be just the combination of policy solutions that the U.S. economy doesn\u2019t need right now. I\u2019d be happy with almost any plan the Supers deliver before turkey day, because no plan means no certainty, no political direction, more drift and more disillusionment for voters.\nEven Greece \u2013 Greece? \u2013 has found a way to create a new coalition government aimed at addressing that country\u2019s severe fiscal and budget challenges. Enjoy the turkey this year and be thankful for any abundance, but don\u2019t look to Washington for sane and sober thoughts on the future of our economy. Maybe the Super Committee ought to spend Thanksgiving in Athens.\nBaseball, Christie, Economy, Federal Budget, Immigration, Politics\nThe System Worked\u2026Barely\nI predicted a week ago that the \u201csensible center\u201d would ultimately behave like adults and avoid a federal government default, but by last weekend I\u2019d revised my personal odds to 50-50 and raised my blood pressure to \u201cunhealthy.\u201d I just didn\u2019t think they\u2019d get so close to messing it all up.\nThe more sensible member of my household flatly predicted a deal at 8:30 pm (EDT) on Sunday. She was right, missing the President\u2019s announcement of a bipartisan cease fire by an insignificant 10 minutes. So, disaster averted, but now what?\nWith the deal passed, signed and delivered, the post mortems are rolling in and it\u2019s not very pretty. Wall Street turned on a dime once the deal was done and decided the underlying economy is still a mess. Those nations with decent economies, the countries that once quaked at the thought of American economic power, now shake their heads in disbelief that our political system came so close to going over the cliff of disaster. The political left labels \u201cthe socialist\u201d president a sellout. Needing Tea Party support many Republicans now head home to, most likely, face more venom from those who think we can fix a decade of fiscal foolishness in one hot summer in Washington.\nUtah\u2019s Orrin Hatch, having it both ways and facing a primary challenge back home, praised the deal and then voted against it. Just for good measure virtually all the GOP presidential candidates now oppose the deal proving, as always, that the safest territory in politics is to be opposed to something while standing on the sidelines without responsibility.\nAlready the pundits predict a second major political meltdown when the Gang of 12 fails in their task to recommend the next major steps just as the holiday season descends on battle weary Americans who don\u2019t seem to trust anyone on anything, especially when it comes to the economy and fiscal policy.\nA new CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey finds broad support \u2013 as in 77 percent support \u2013 for the notion that Washington\u2019s leaders \u201cacted like spoiled children\u201d in reaching the deal on debt and deficits.\nTrying to explain American politics to a British audience, historian Robert Dallek writes in the Daily Telegraph that, \u201csomething is at work here that makes you wonder if rational discourse is beyond the capacity of many American voters to understand.\u201d\nDallek accurately describes a Democratic Party increasingly unhappy with Barack Obama, a Republican Party in the death grip of what that old curmudgeon John McCain calls \u201cthe hobbits\u201d of the Tea Party movement and a media environment that simplifies and sensationalizes to the point of anger.\n\u201cThe public,\u201d Dallek writes, \u201cis deeply cynical about politics and politicians. The Congress holds only a 17 percent approval rating and the President now has the approval of less than 50 percent of the public. Moreover, the latest polls show little enthusiasm for any of the potential Republican challengers. Neither Mitt Romney nor Tim Pawlenty nor Newt Gingrich nor Michelle Bachman nor any of the lesser-known names in the mix generate much excitement.\u201d\nSo, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how did we like this play? The best that can be said is that we dodged a big one, but in the dodging we displayed all the dysfunction, distrust and denial that got us into this mess in the first place.\nMakes one wonder what will happen next time.",

        "raw_content": "The first request for a publican's license for the New Inn was made by a James Tickner in 1855, but was refused by the magistrates. Having spent a lot of capital on the premises, and being unable to recoup his expenditure by opening it as an inn, Mr. Tickner was forced to raise some immediate cash on the security of the house. Which, it seems, he was unable to repay. Whereupon the mortgager foreclosed and he was ejected.\nThe following year the new owner, James Comely, tried again to get a license for the house. To prove that it was a building of some consequence it was emphasised that it stood on the main road, and had been erected at a cost of \u00a31,500. The usual petition was submitted by the applicant, and was signed by the usual array of people. There was also a letter from the Rev. C. Woodward, curate of East Molesey, recommending Mr. Comely as a fit and proper person. This time the license was granted [115].\nIn 1872 the inn was put up for auction. From the sale description we can get a good idea of the premises at that time: \"The Freehold Tavern, known as the New Inn, recently erected and replete with every convenience, well situate at the junction of Church and Walton-roads, in the village of East Molesey, comprising on the ground floor, commercial room, coffee room, parlour, lobby, tap room, bar, bar parlour, kitchen, wash-house, pantry, W.C., and coal cellar. On the first floor, six bedrooms, sitting room, club room, W.C., and room over shop. In the rear is a large garden, in which is a club or dining room, and sheds fitted up as loose boxes. There are front and side entrances. This New Inn and premises are in the occupation of Mr. Bowers. Adjoining the Inn in Walton-street (sic) is a shop; next thereto is a corn chandlers shop, with three rooms in the rear, as let to Mr. Wells; and adjoining is a large shop, recently used as a boat building shop. The whole of the trade and other fixtures will be included in the purchase\" [116].\n1857 - James Comely\n1858 - William Penn Francis\n1859 - Maria Ann Francis\n1861 - John W.

I've loved this course from the first time I saw it. It's possibly the best in the world.\"\nPebble Beach Golf Course was designed by Jack Neville and Douglas Grant, opening on February 22, 1919. The original layout has changed very little over the years. Prior to the 1992 U.S. Open, Jack Nicklaus made a some alterations, including rebuilding the 4th, 5th and 7th greens. The most resent change occurred in 1998 when Jack Nicklaus designed a replacement for the par 3, 5th, which is now positioned along the cliff above the beach at Stillwater Cove.\nRanked the #1 public course in America by Golf Digest Magazine along with a #1 rating among the \"Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the U.S.\" by Golf Magazine, Pebble Beach Golf Links is arguably the greatest course in the world. With the amazing combination of unmatched coastal beauty, remarkable architecture and legendary golf history, it is hard to disagree. Featuring nine holes (#4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #17, #18) directly on the bluffs over looking the majestic Pacific Ocean, Pebble Beach is one of the greatest meetings of land and sea ever created by mother nature. Holes #8, #9, and #10 are positioned on cliffs over looking Carmel Bay and are considered the most difficult stretch of holes on the course. Course management is imperative to playing well at Pebble Beach Golf Links. With narrow fairways and well-protected postage-stamp greens, golfers experience a wonderful challenge throughout the round.\nPebble Beach has played host to a number of world-class tournaments over the years as well as co-hosting the annual AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am with Monterey Peninsula Country Club Shores Course and Spyglass Hill Golf Course. A total of 11 USGA championships have been contested at Pebble Beach Golf Links, five of which where U.S. Open championships held in 1972, 1982, 1992, 2000 and 2010. Pebble is also scheduled to host it's sixth U.S. Open in June of 2019.\nLearn more about the history of U.S. Opens at Pebble Beach Golf Course >>\nAre you planning on playing a round at Pebble Beach Golf Links? If so, there is a two night minimum stay requirement at one of Pebble Beach's hotels in order to make a golf reservation. The only way around this lodging requirement is to book your tee-time one day in advance or try to walk-on. Depending on the season, there is a good chance all of the tee-times will be booked. If you frown upon long rounds, schedule your tee-time so you are the first group off in the morning, as most rounds are in excess of five hours. Also, if you can afford a caddie it is highly recommended, they will save you strokes.\nLadies 322 363 275 256 140 385 88 350 330 2509\nHandicap 8 10 12 16 14 2 18 6 4\nHandicap 7 5 17 9 1 13 11 15 3\nPebble Beach Golf Links Website\nDirections to Pebble Beach Golf Links",

        "title": "7 Signs That You\u2019re Buying a Money Pit",
        "raw_content": "7 Signs That You\u2019re Buying a Money Pit\nGuest Author\ton May 21, 2012\nSome rights reserved by japhar\nA house is not only your refuge from the world, it\u2019s also an investment. The recent ups and downs in the housing market notwithstanding, in general your home is going to increase in value. This is especially true if you find ways to improve on the property while you\u2019re there.\nUnfortunately, some homes need a lot of improvement just to maintain livability, to say nothing of trying to increase the value. The infamous \u201cmoney pit\u201d can be a bit of a nightmare in which to live, and you can come away from the experience wishing you\u2019d have just continued with apartment living.\nDon\u2019t be fooled by that new-house smell, either; many new homes that are less than 10 years old can still require a great deal of improvement.\nHere are some ways you can tell whether the home you\u2019re considering might wind up being a money pit:\nThe foundation has problems. The most significant problems that will arise with a house come from instability in the foundation. While you can always call in a structural engineer to do an analysis, that\u2019s probably not an expense you want to incur for every home you\u2019re interested in. Instead, look at the yard. Are there trees nearby the home? If they\u2019re large trees or if they\u2019re trees that will eventually grow to be large, they can cause the foundation to crack and break.\nThere is cracking in the walls and around the windows. Cracks in the drywall can also indicate problems with the home\u2019s structure. In particular, you\u2019re looking for cracks around the corners as well as around windows. These cracks are tell-tale signs of foundation problems.\nYou can feel air around the windows. Speaking of windows, you\u2019ll want to see just how airtight they seem to be. Feel around the edges of the windows to see if there\u2019s a draft, or whether any air seems to be entering the home. Don\u2019t be fooled by window treatments, either. Some window treatments can reduce the amount of air flowing into a home via the windows, of course, and so you\u2019ll want to take some time to raise the blinds and pull back the curtains.\nThere is water damage. More than just about anything else inside the house, water will cause major damage. It damages walls, floors, carpeting, and everything else. On top of that, water damage can be among the most costly types of problems to repair. Look for water damage in bathrooms and in the kitchen. Check the floors, and check the walls around the fixtures, as well. Watch for leaky fixtures, because that will give you a good idea as to exactly how much home maintenance has been a priority for the previous owners.\nThe home has cosmetic problems. To be sure, minor cosmetic problems can be easy and inexpensive to fix. However, if you find that you\u2019re entering every room saying \u201cthis room would be perfect if I only changed X\u201d then you\u2019ll want to give it a second thought. Interior design and remodeling projects can add up quickly.\nSome easy maintenance items have been left undone. For example, check the faucets. If the \u201cHot\u201d faucet spits out cold water and vice versa, that\u2019s a sign there could be more potential problems that have been unattended.\nThe basement gives away telltale signs of neglect or of poor construction. The basement is probably the most important room in the home that you can inspect. You\u2019re looking here to see that all of the wiring and plumbing passing through the home seem to have been done professionally. You\u2019ll look for signs that there have been modifications or repairs to the heating and cooling system. Even inspecting the furnace filter can be a good idea, because it might give you some feel for how much time that expensive fixture has left.\nUltimately, none of these things individually should keep you from buying the home of your dreams. What you do need to realize, however, is that the amount of money you expect to put into improvements and repairs is probably woefully short. Double it \u2013at a minimum \u2013 and you\u2019ll probably be in the ballpark.\nFinally, keep in mind that seller repairs aren\u2019t always the best way to go. If there are problems with the home that you\u2019d like to fix, consider lowering your offer. You\u2019re in a much better position to make sure that the repairs or improvements are done right, and in a way that you want them to be done.\nNick Simpson is Social Media Coordinator at Blindsgalore, a leading provider of wood blinds and faux wood blinds.

Your tips are really good .. i will keep this in mind ..\nEvan recently posted\u2026360 HDMI AV Cable Review\nDominic June 1, 2012, 7:23 am\nGreat post. Anyone involved in the construction and real estate industry should read it! Keep up the good work!\nSarah June 1, 2012, 11:25 am\nIt\u2019s so important to watch out for these things. So many times it\u2019s the little things that people miss that turn out to be the biggest headaches down the lie. If your windows aren\u2019t sealed properly that can cost you lots in the winters, not to mention replacing windows is a huge cost as well!\nIn the Uk we have a survey carried out on a property before buying.There are different types of survey depending on your budget.It is always best to have this done before purchasing then at least you have an idea of what problems your new home will have.\nJeff recently posted\u2026Wood Burning Stoves\nNumber 6 is huge, bevcause if they didn;t do the easy stuff there are two issues.\n1) The simple stuff neglected can lead to major problems down the road.\n2) If they didn;t do the simple stuff, you know they probably didn\u2019t do the more advanced repairs, either.\nThere are so many things that can cause major and expensive headaches in the future, most of which homeowners rartely do. For example, how many people regularilly maintain ther garage doors? Not many, I\u2019ll bet.\nSteve recently posted\u2026Selling Your Home \u2013 How to Get Top Dollar, Fast\nDavid Lampe September 6, 2014, 11:40 am\nGreat list.

        "title": "Project MUSE - From Hysteria to Hormones Article",
        "raw_content": "8. From Hysteria to Hormones\nFor at least a couple of decades before Starling \ufb01rst used the word hormone in a 1905 lecture to the Royal Society in London, experts knew that a chemical substance enabled the organs to communicate with each other to enable processes likedigestionandrespiration.However,theydidnothaveagoodtermtodescribe these substances; they used vague words like chemical messenger and internal secretion. None of these words was powerful enough to win the argument, so the experts went back and forth, quibbling over how to interpret the same old evidence . The term hormone was a game-changer. The chemical substances that the new word named had been known to scientists for a long time. But when they \ufb01nally had a word that they could agree on, the science moved forward after decades of standstill. By 1915, endocrinology had become established, and this \ufb01eld continued to experience rapid growth for many years after that. Thus, one of the stories told in this book is about the founding of an entirely new medical \ufb01eld\u2014endocrinology\u2014and of a physician who became famous because of the rhetorical movement that he was able to e\ufb00ect after those decades of standstill. The science that Starling reported in his 1905 lecture was not very new at all, but because he used the term hormone for the \ufb01rst time, he changed the world. And he is remembered in the history of medicine as the person who discovered hormones, even though many scientists before him labored for years in their laboratories to understand the internal mechanisms of communication that enabled bodily functions such as respiration, digestion, and reproduction. As compelling as this story of Starling\u2019s rhetorical accomplishment might be, it is only one small part of the larger narrative that has been told in this book: the centuries-long narrative of a shift from the hysterical woman to the hormonal woman as the primary metaphor that we used to explain almost everything that could go wrong with women\u2019s physical or mental health. The belief in hysteria, which has a history that spans the centuries, was based on wild imaginings about the behavior of the womb deep inside a woman\u2019s body, whereas the From Hysteria to Hormones 8 19094-Koerber_FromHysteria.indd 185 19094-Koerber_FromHysteria.indd 185 1/15/18 4:41 PM 1/15/18 4:41 PM 186 from hysteria to hormones relatively new belief in hormones is based on scienti\ufb01cally veri\ufb01ed chemical substances with resulting behaviors and systemic e\ufb00ects that can be measured, documented, and replicated in the laboratory. The short version of this story is that science has gradually come to replace mysticism and religious beliefs as the basis for understanding women\u2019s bodies and women\u2019s health. As I have argued,however,the transition from a hysterical-woman metaphor to a hormonal-woman metaphor has been far less absolute than previous approaches to the history of medicine might lead us to expect. This continual process, in which new terms and concepts have gradually morphed from older terms and concepts, o\ufb00ers us new ways to comprehend the rhetoric of science as a form of movement that is characterized by anything but a progression along a straight timeline. The forms of movement that are evident in the scienti\ufb01c rhetorics that I have analyzed in this book are best characterized as folding, \ufb02uxing, morphing, and twisting. Thus, through close examination of the scienti \ufb01c and popular texts that facilitate these forms of movement, we can see how a concept such as hormones never really breaks from its history but, instead, comes to encapsulate key ideas from that history, reshaping these concepts in ways that \ufb01t the demands of ever-changing rhetorical contexts. This highlights a fundamentally conservative element of the scienti\ufb01c endeavor, suggesting that one of the reasons why new ideas emerge is to preserve old ways of thinking\u2014 to make those old ideas acceptable to new audiences\u2014not only to e\ufb00ect a clean break from the past. Perhaps it is not coincidental that much of the energy of medical experts during the many centuries that this book covers has been devoted to \ufb01guring out how and why the womb refused to stay put inside women\u2019s bodies. It is almost as if this entity inside women that has been depicted as unpredictable and hard to tame\u2014sometimes even referred to in the ancient texts as a wild animal\u2014mimicked the kind of topological movement of scienti\ufb01c thought that I have tried to...",

        "raw_content": "Richard Hodges Named Director of University of Pennsylvania Museum\nRichard Hodges has been named the Williams Director of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.\nHodges will join Penn Oct. 1 from his position as director of the Institute of World Archaeology at the University of East Anglia in the United Kingdom.\nA world-leading classical and early medieval archaeologist specializing in western Europe, Hodges has been director of both The Prince of Wales\u2019 Institute of Architecture in London and The British School in Rome. For the past nine years, he has worked extensively on archaeological and cultural heritage projects in Albania including the creation of a large cultural heritage institute in Tirana and a new archaeological museum in Butrint.\n\u201cThis is a proud moment for the Penn Museum, for the University of Pennsylvania and, indeed, for anyone who treasures the art and culture of the world\u2019s civilizations,\u201d Penn President Amy Gutmann said. \u201cRichard brings an unparalleled level of leadership experience and creativity to the University that will resonate beyond the faculty and the students and will continue to make the Penn Museum a source of knowledge and inspiration.\u201d\nAs director of the British School in Rome from 1988 to 1995, Hodges created new galleries for archaeology and contemporary art, modernized the physical plant and reformed the charter. A professor at Sheffield University from 1976 to 1995, he was the 2005 Charles Eliot Norton Lecturer at the American Institute of Archaeology and has served since 2003 as a board member of the Packard Humanities Institute in Palo Alto, Calif., for which he has overseen major archaeological projects in Greece, Italy, Turkey and Ukraine.\n\u201cRichard has all the right qualities to help us chart the future of the museum,\u201d Provost Ronald J. Daniels said. \u201cHe is a scholar of remarkable range, an experienced leader and an intellectual innovator. I am extremely pleased that we have been successful in bringing him to Penn.\u201d\n\u201cI am very excited to take up this challenge,\u201d Hodges said. \u201cIt is a privilege to be working with such collections and with the distinguished curatorial staff. The Museum is world-class in every way, and I feel excited about helping to plot its way forward, securing its place on the global stage.\u201d\nNamed an Officer of the British Empire in 1995, Hodges is the author of 10 books on such subjects as archaeology and the beginnings of English society, primitive and peasant markets and towns and trade in the age of Charlemagne. His \u201cWall-to-Wall History: The Story of Roystone Grange\u201d was the 1992 British Archaeological Book of the Year. He is an editor of 16 books and author of more than 100 essays and pamphlets, primarily on archaeology in Italy, Albania and early northwest Europe.\nHodges earned his Ph.D. from Southampton University in 1977, with a thesis on eighth and ninth century ceramics, and his undergraduate degree in archaeology and medieval history from Southampton University in 1973.\nLabels: News from the Field",

        "raw_content": "When is a Ducted Air Conditioner a Better Choice Than a Ductless System?\nWhen choosing a new air conditioner, you might be thinking of a ducted system, also sometimes called central air and which is hooked up to all the ductwork in your home, versus a ductless model. The ductless model is vented directly out a hole in your outside wall and the air is not connected to a home's ductwork but blows out the front panel or face of the system. While a ductless system is often cheaper to purchase and have installed, note when the central air or ducted system may be a better option for your home.\nWhen the home already has ducts\nIf the home has already been constructed with ductwork and had a central air conditioner in place, you may want a central air system. In these cases, it might actually be cheaper to install than a ductless system, since it just replaces your older model and hooks up to the ducts. A ductless system is often chosen for homes or buildings without ductwork in every room; if ducts are already installed, the central air system may not be as costly, versus the ductless system, as you may assume.\nIf aesthetics are important to you, a ducted system may be the better choice. The only part seen in each room is the vent opening to the duct. With a ductless system, the panel may sit in the ceiling or be recessed in the wall, but it's still very visible.\nThe blower unit for a central or ducted system sits outside the home, so there is little noise when the system runs. While ductless units are not necessarily as noisy as a window unit, they do still create noise from the front panel as they operate. For a child's room, a room where you watch movies, and other such setting, this may be very distracting and a ducted system would be better.\nHumid environments\nA ducted system not only makes a space cooler but also works to remove humidity from the space. A ductless system doesn't remove humidity in the same way, so that some environments may be uncomfortable with this smaller system. While you may be able to invest in a dehumidifier for the space, this can mean added noise and also means not having that humidity removed from all areas of the home. This humidity can get trapped in the attic or upper floors, sometimes allowing mold and mildew to form on building materials.",

        "raw_content": "Milan in Bits and Pieces\nJanuary 16th, 2019 \u2014 Far Navab\nWe took the train from Lausanne, Switzerland, where my mother and sister live, to Milan, passing by lake Como along the way. If you haven\u2019t been there, you may think it\u2019s just another lake, but its name belies the enormity of the place. Lake Como is huge and is made up of small villages and town, islands, and beautiful homes.\nA Train Palace!\nMilan\u2019s great Stazione Centrale is an architectural marvel. A 19th century monument built by Vittorio Emanuel III, Italy\u2019s last king, it is Europe\u2019s largest train station. More than a mere train station, Stazione Centrale merits the title \u201ctrain palace.\u201d\nMy wife Azadeh at Milan\u2019s Stazione Centrale\nMilan is Italy\u2019s second largest city. A commercial and industrial center that produces much of the wealth in that country. The Milanese are fond of saying that \u201cMilan makes the money and Rome gets to spend it.\u201d\nThe Amazing Duomo\nMilan\u2019s architectural landmark, the Duomo, is the world\u2019s third largest cathedral. An obvious treasure, described in every travel book, it requires no further explanation.\nMilan's Duomo Cathedral\nMilan\u2019s coolest neighborhood is called Brera, meaning \u201cthe woods.\u201d Centuries ago, it used to be a forested area. In more recent times, its collection of 18th and 19th century buildings, unkempt and dilapidated, have made it a haven for artists and bohemians as well as home to Milan\u2019s red-light district. Today, Brera stands as an expensive neighborhood bustling with art galleries, restaurants, and fashion houses.\nPinacoteca Brera is an old mansion turned museum that was captured by none other than Napoleon when he coronated himself in Milan on May 26th, 1805. To commemorate that auspicious occasion the invaders erected a very Roman statute of Napoleon, bearing no discernible resemblance to the actual person, in the middle of the courtyard.\nIf you have an appreciation of renaissance paintings, then walking into Pinacoteca Brera in Milan is going to be one of your best experiences.\nEntrance to the museum, Pinacoteca Brera\nThe collection of Renaissance art in this beautiful museum is perhaps unmatched anywhere in the world. But, we were also impressed by how wonderfully some of the paintings were displayed, leaving ample seating space for viewers to enjoy these massive works of art.\nWe learned so much about Caravaggio, Tintoretto, and Bellini. There are several works that are simply amazing. This may be boring to some, but I promise to be brief about my personal experience and learning.\nGentile & Giovanni\nA great painting by the Bellini brothers is of course \u201cSaint Mark Preaching in Alexandria.\u201d The painting shows an imaginary Egypt, envisioned first by Gentile Bellini (1429-1507), and later, after Gentile\u2019s death, completed by Giovanni. The work is one of the greatest paintings one can see anywhere in the world. You could even call it a precursor to many Orientalist paintings of the 18th and 19th centuries.\nSaint Mark Preaching in Alexandria\nA great example of special arrangement, architectural visualization, and colorful texture, the painting speaks, more than anything, to the give and take between great civilizations. It displays just how much and how long the East has been in the consciousness of the West.\nThe second eye-opening painting for me was the \u201cSupper at Emmaus\u201d by Caravaggio (1571-1610). This painting is highly regarded for its composition, and, notably, the placement of Jesus, who sits not at the center but appears instead as a common visitor at one end of the table, making the whole event more human and ordinary. \u201cSupper at Emmaus\u201d exemplifies a pivotal moment when art transitioned into the early \u201cmodern\u201d era.\nMy third favorite painting was \u201cFinding of the Body of Saint Mark\u201d by Tintoretto (1518-1594). Almost cinematic in its storytelling, the painting has an amazing composition; the perspective shifts from darkness to light, suddenly revealing Saint Mark as he commands the Venetians to stop the search for his body.\nFinding of the Body of Saint Mark\nLegend has it that when Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519) was commissioned by the duke of Milan to paint his great painting of the Last Supper, the Duke, unable to pay him, offered him instead a piece of land to make wine. La Vina di Leonardo is supposedly the place where Leonardo da Vinci grew grapes while he was working on \u201cThe Last Supper\u201d in the refectory of the convent of Santa Maria della Grazie, just on the other side of the road.\nLa Vigna de Leonardo\nWalk and Eat\nOver the years I have felt very close to the Italian spirit, and, as an Iranian, developed a great appreciation for Italian people, their history, and their culture.\nFood Market in Milan's Brera neighborhood\nWe took a walking food tour of Milan, tasting a variety of foods around the Brera neighborhood. We even met a wonderful resident of Saint Paul, MN in our group.\nTasting Pasta in Brera\nTalking Film in Brera\nWhen I was told about the Visconti family who ruled Milan from 1277 to 1477, I asked our tour guide if Luchino Visconti (1906-1976), the great Italian filmmaker who made Death in Venice with Dirk Bogarde, was related to the family?\n\u201cThat\u2019s a good question, let me google it,\u201d the guide answered. Sure enough, he was. After a brief conversation about my own background and interest in film, the guide asked \u201cSo who\u2019s your favorite Italian filmmaker?\u201d I took a few seconds to respond, since there are so many great Italian fimmakers, finally landing on Vittorio and Paulo Taviani, the two brothers behind one of my favorite films, Padre Padrone (1977). \u201cNever heard of them, let me google it,\u201d the guide said. He did a quick search and looked up. \u201cYou learn something new every day.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\"Practitioners of BDSM Found To Be Psychologically Healthy\"\non Friday, 04 December 2015. Posted in NCSF in the News!, Front Page Headline, Media Updates\nTess M. Gemberling, M.A.\nResponse: Many stereotypes of BDSM (bondage and discipline [B&D], dominance and submission [D/s], sadomasochism [SM],) exist; however, research with practitioners suggests these stereotypes are largely unfounded. Preliminary evidence implies BDSM practitioners are psychologically healthy individuals. This study was conducted to further evaluate these results.\nResponse: Along with other findings, the majority of results indicates practitioners are well functioning. Overall, participants are healthy in the mental, emotional, and interpersonal aspects of their lives. In addition, practitioners are often victims of violence but are not perpetrators of violence.\nResponse: Instead of stereotypes, we propose BDSM be thought of as a specialized interest, enjoyed without detriment. Therefore, practitioners should be treated with respect. For health professionals, this can be enacted by providing medical advice on BDSM practice only when requested by the patient or when unsafe activities are readily apparent. Instead, clinicians should remain focused on the presenting concerns.\nResponse: Additional research can provide a more detailed understanding of practitioners\u2019 functioning, such as how victimization relates to mental health. Further, future analyses can compare practitioners to other populations to understand how practitioners relate to others.\nPsychological Functioning and Violence Victimization and Perpetration in BDSM Practitioners from the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom,\u201d\n\"Kinky people are mentally and emotionally healthy\"\nWMBF (Myrtle Beach, SC)\nUniversity of Alabama and University of Central Florida researchers surveyed over 800 kinky people recruited by the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF) and found they were mentally and emotionally healthy.\non Tuesday, 01 December 2015. Posted in NCSF in the News!, Front Page Headline, NCSF News\n\u201cI was curious about the stereotypes from a mental health standpoint and we found that these kinky people are well functioning, with little mental health concerns,\u201d says Tess M. Gemberling, M.A., Co-Principal Investigator, University of Alabama. \u201cThey also have healthy romantic relationships.\u201d\nThe study, \u201cPsychological Functioning and Violence Victimization and Perpetration in BDSM Practitioners from the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom,\u201d also investigated people\u2019s preferences for BDSM activities and fantasies, and explored whether violence is perpetuated against kinky people. It joins a growing body of research that refutes the stereotype that people who are kinky are inherently dangerous to themselves and others, which is at the root of the discrimination and persecution that kinky people experience.\n\u201cI wanted to explore more about how the stereotypes interface with reality,\u201d says Matt R. Nobles, Ph.D., Co-Principal Investigator, University of Central Florida. \u201cAlthough more than half of the people in this study have been victims of violence or aggression, extremely few had perpetrated such themselves.\u201d\n\u201cParallel to my work with sexual minorities, my interest is in looking at the nature of identity and mental health in a vulnerable group of people,\u201d says Robert J. Cramer, Ph.D., Co-Principal Investigator, University of Alabama. \u201cContrary to popular perceptions, our study shows kinky persons are largely mentally healthy when it comes to conditions such as depression, anxiety and suicide.\u201d\nThe study also confirms that for these kinksters it\u2019s primarily about consensual power exchange, with 98% preferring to take a specific power exchange role during BDSM. The most commonly reported practices were spanking, slapping and biting, and the use of sexual toys and equipment.\n\u201cLawmakers can help by legally recognizing informed consent as the basis of healthy BDSM behavior,\u201d says Susan Wright, spokesperson for NCSF. \u201cBDSM is intended to be a mutually beneficial experience that is done by consenting adults.\u201d\n\"Leather Life: \u201cA Taste of Kink\u201d for Sexual Health Professionals\"\non Friday, 11 September 2015. Posted in NCSF in the News!, Front Page Headline, Media Updates\n\u201cA Taste of Kink\u201d, an evening of interactive kink demonstrations and discussions, recently allowed over 100 sexual health professionals from across the country to see, and perhaps experience firsthand, the dynamics and feelings associated with kink and BDSM practices.\nThe evening was part of the 47th annual conference of the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT). The conference, held June 3\u20137 in Minneapolis, featured over 50 workshops providing continuing education credits for sexual health professionals.\nWorkshop topics at the conference included GLBTQ youth, transgender health issues, gender roles, working with non-monogamous couples, and sex-positive Christianity. The conference also included a performance by Wicked Wenches Cabaret, a Twin Cities burlesque troupe.\nThe \u201cTaste of Kink\u201d event on Saturday, June 6, was co-produced by AASECT\u2019s AltSex SIG (Special Interest Group) and the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF), with help from Twin Cities volunteers and groups including MSDB, Knights of Leather, MinKY (Minnesota Kinky Youth), and The Electrical Group. The event took place at Patrick\u2019s Cabaret in Minneapolis.\nThe purpose of the evening was to explain the dynamics of kink and BDSM scenes, and to show non-kinky professionals how kink feels. One of the organizers explained, \u201cWe are doing this to become more professionally and culturally sensitive to the needs of the BDSM community.\u201d Another organizer commented, \u201cAs therapists we need to be prepared to deal with this, especially with 50 Shades of Gray out there.\u201d\nThe event started with a one-hour \u201cmunch\u201d \u2014 food, nonalcoholic beverages and conversation. Local community volunteers and demonstrators wore \u201cAsk me about . . .\u201d name tags listing their kink interests and inviting questions from AASECT conference attendees.\nAfter the munch, the demonstrations began. Six demo areas offered concurrent demonstrations of flogging, whipping, and impact play; foot worship; punching; spanking; sensation play; bondage and suspension; and electrical play with a violet wand.\nThe demonstrations showed not just technique, but also the processes of negotiation, consent and aftercare (checking in with a partner afterward to make sure everyone is okay). Demonstrators also talked about what they felt as they were involved in the activity, why they liked to do the activity they were demonstrating, and what appealed to them about it.\nAASECT members then had the opportunity to try, or \u201ctaste,\u201d the practices being demonstrated if they wished, and many of them did. Their tastes gave them firsthand experience not only with one or more BDSM practices, but also with the processes of negotiation, consent and aftercare \u2014 and with the use of safewords. As someone commented, \u201cThis isn\u2019t just PowerPoints or slideshows; this is experiential learning.\u201d\nFor your humble columnist, a nonprofessional spectator, the evening was a series of amazing moments. It was interesting to see the slightly startled expression on someone\u2019s face as they felt the electric charge of a violet wand for the first time, or the blissful expression on someone else\u2019s face as they were having their feet worshipped. ...\n\"Is Psychiatry Getting Kinky?\"\nSo slip into those tight leather jeans. That dog collar would look fetching. Add a piercing in a place your mother wouldn't imagine. Or take your lover to a trendy erotic play-space and make lots of fast friends.\nYour therapist says it's OK. In fact, she or he might be there. (I know a few therapists who partake.)\nThe American Psychiatric Association has gotten kinky. Well, not quite -- its annual meetings each May are pretty buttoned-up affairs. But its newest catalog of mental illnesses, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (known as the DSM V) does some unzipping. You can now do whatever, with whomever (consent required, please), on your own or in groups, and be in the pink of mental health -- so long as you don't suffer \"clinically significant distress or impairment.\"\nCredit cultural change, kinky lobbyists (the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom pressed the APA to stop diagnosing edgy pleasures), or -- who knows. But the committees of psychiatrists who rethink disease categories when the APA revises its diagnostic manual dropped \"fetishes\" sans \"distress or impairment\" from their list of disorders.\nIf your style of kinky fun is fetish-free (the APA defines \"fetishism\" as sexual use of \"inanimate objects\"), the new erotic liberation still has you covered. The DSM used to treat all \"paraphilias\" (APA-speak for \"atypical\" sexual practices) as sicknesses; not any more, so long as the fun is distress-free.\nSo what Christian and Anastasia do in Fifty Shades of Grey is (mostly) healthy, as of the DSM V's May 2013 release date. So are sex parties of the sort enjoyed by Dominique Strauss-Kahn -- the next president of France, until his alleged doings with a hotel housekeeper undid him.\nPsychiatry's new sexual willingness came along just in time to save the field from embarrassment. If millions of Americans are getting kinky (or want to), diagnosing kink as disease would expand the ranks of the mentally ill implausibly. ...\nThe recent Supreme Court ruling on same sex marriage makes it seem as if marriage equality has finally come to the U.S. But that is not actually accurate. The celebration is great step forward, but in truth, there's more work to do if we as a nation want to truly recognize and celebrate the diversity of love, relationships and family.\nFor example, polyamory. Polyamorous partners do not have the privilege of legal marriage. What's worse, many are closeted for fear of discrimination in housing, employment and child custody. Prominent organizations such as the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF) have brought attention to how polyamorists and other ethically non-monogamous people are targets for discrimination in the same way that LGBTQ folks have been. See here.\nThe ironic thing is, there would be no big deal about a person who just happened to be sleeping with more than one lover. But call it polyamory -- in other words, a public, ethical stance about loving more than one partner with honesty and integrity -- and that seems intolerable to so many. Currently, polyamorous people do not have equal protection under the law, because anything other than monogamy is seen as a fringe/freakish/immoral lifestyle choice and not as a valid sexual or relationship orientation.\nI interviewed author and poly advocate Dr. Anya Trahan about the Supreme Court Decision, and what she sees as the way forward for those who embrace ethical loving with multiple partners.\nQuestion: Do you think polyamory is a sexual orientation? Is it a choice or is it inborn?\nTrahan: One of the great things about being human is the ability to choose the language and the labels that best articulate our values. I have heard many polys say that their way of living is a sexual orientation. That is a totally valid label, and I support anyone who wishes to use it. And, it may even be that from a legal standpoint, embracing the label of sexual orientation to describe polyamory may help prevent discrimination in the future -- because it is already commonly understood that to discriminate based on one's sexual orientation is not only wrong, but illegal.\nThe way I personally think of polyamory is as a relationship orientation. In my work as a relationship coach, I have found that a surprising number of my clients consider themselves \"partners\" or \"family\" with those whom there is no sexual interaction. In other words, polyamory seems to be more about coming together for the purposes of co-creating a life together, a support system, based on mutually shared values and philosophies. Responsible sexual expression may be enjoyed, of course, but that is not necessarily a prerequisite to form loving, intense, committed connections.\nQuestion: You are a public figure, an author and a spokesperson for polyamory. Have you suffered any negative consequences?\nTrahan: When I first came out as poly back in 2012, I lost a number of close friends. Members of my biological family reacted with open hostility and judgment, resulting in a period of estrangement. Since my book about polyamory, Opening Love has been published this year, I have been fired from two jobs. I have no desire to bring this to the courts (legal battles are, for me, not a good use of my energy), although I know that I would have at least a small shot at winning a discrimination case, because one of the organizations stated openly in writing that the reason I was being fired was for being openly polyamorous. In theory, I could sue on the grounds of sexual discrimination. ...\nSusan Wright Interview @ sexfortherest.com\non Friday, 31 July 2015. Posted in NCSF in the News!, Front Page Headline, Media Updates\nby Erin Kennedy\nIn this interview, we discuss the type of discrimination Kinksters face, who Kinksters are, and whether or not Kink should be seen as a sexual orientation.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MckC6eSA4Ro&feature=share\non Thursday, 18 June 2015. Posted in NCSF in the News!, Front Page Headline, Media Updates\nWhen exes and relatives call social workers on BDSM-loving moms and dads, the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom is there to help.\nLike many women, Samantha likes kink. Unlike many women, she lost custody of her children over it.\nIn July 2013, Samantha\u2019s ex-boyfriend told social services that her dominant-submissive relationship with her new boyfriend was harmful to the children.\nA social worker backed up the ex-husband\u2019s proofless allegations, even outlandish ones where he claimed their eldest son had been hung from the ceiling by his wrist, and removed the children.\nSamantha asked a court to order a second evaluation and waited for months. In the meantime, she contacted the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom for help. NCSF is a volunteer-run nonprofit that strives to connect kinky, poly, and \u201cother\u201d parents with the legal resources they need to fight custody battles and the like.\nIn that case, NCSF spokesperson Susan Wright said she called a local LGBT and got references for queer-friendly lawyers for Samantha. She vetted them before passing them along. Wright even called case workers in Samantha\u2019s county and urged a second evaluation.\nWithin weeks, social services took back their evaluation of abuse: the kids, they said, should be reunited with their mother.\nOften, parents like Samantha are pursued by an ex-partner or another relative who claims the parents\u2019 their sexual proclivities are harmful to children. Judges decide what is in \u201cthe best interests of the child,\u201d and parents who are sexual sadists, masochists, or who have multiple romantic partners can easily arouse suspicion.\n\u201cWe\u2019re leaving this really vague standard of \u2018the best interests of the child\u2019 up to subjective interpretation,\u201d said Brooklyn-based lawyer Diana Adams, one of the kink-aware professionals who works with NCSF.\nBut Adams said individual trial judge decisions can be very difficult to appeal. Saying that a judge was biased or used poor judgment is not enough\u2014in many areas, the standard for appeal is error. ...",

        "raw_content": "For architect Joe Snell, transforming the headquarters of the Mamamia publishing empire was a lesson the power of good design.\nJoe Snell is a believer in the relationship between good design and positive energy. The award-winning architect, who studied at Copenhagen\u2019s Royal Academy of Fine Arts and serves as a judge on home renovation show House Rules, says that the right design elements can transform the way we feel in certain spaces.\n\u201cI think society has forgotten how important the built environment is when it comes to how we feel,\u201d he says. \u201cThe space you inhabit affects your mood. If you\u2019re sitting in an air-conditioned, badly lit space and there\u2019s no inspiration around you and it\u2019s not reflecting your creative culture than what\u2019s the point?\u201d\nRecently, a collaboration with media powerhouse Mia Freedman allowed Snell to test this theory. Earlier this year, the founder of popular women\u2019s website Mamamia as well as sister sites The Glow and iVillage asked Snell to redesign her team\u2019s Sydney headquarters to better reflect the company\u2019s evolution and growth.\n\u201cMia came across another project that I delivered for an advertising agency in the same building and asked me to work on her office,\u201d he explains. \u201cMamamia is growing fast so I worked really close with them to understand how they\u2019re going to grow and what that meant for the office layout. Mia is a force of nature when I was listening to her, I realised that she needed an uplifting space. When you walk into that office, there are TVs, conversations and post-it notes everywhere. I wanted to create an environment that represented that energy.\u201d\nFor Snell, transforming the office \u2013 which features high ceilings, columns and classic timber flooring \u2013 called for clever use of colour and breakout spaces modeled on indoor greenhouses. Elements such as a yellow table and bench from NOMI\u2019s Dove range create the flexibility essential for accommodating growth.\n\u201cI used a lot of neon colours such as yellow, green, pink and purple to create definition,\u201d he explains. \u201cI also used greenhouses that serve as rooms within rooms and provide different areas for staff to hang out in. The injection of the greenhouses add a bit of fun and reflect the forward-thinking, alternative nature of the company.\u201d\nSnell conceived and installed a separation device made out of colourful tubes to introduce borders between zones and embody the organisation\u2019s spirit. It\u2019s also his proudest achievement.\n\u201cInstead of building a wall, I introduced a separation device made out of colourful tubes the resembles the billowing of a dress \u2013 it sways in and sways out, there\u2019s a softness to it and your perspective of it changes depending on where you are in the office,\u201d says Snell, who detailed the device after lengthy research. \u201cMamamia is a disruptive company and there isn\u2019t an aspect of the design that\u2019s conformist. At the same time, it\u2019s functional and allows everyone to work and produce.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Farewell Blogger. I have moved on.\nYou can now find me here:\nwww.neilthewriter.co.uk\nPosted by Neil at 11:03 AM No comments:\nA bit of poetry success\nThe 26 Words exhibition \u2013 \"exploring the DNA of language\" \u2013 opened in London last week. Among the works on display was the piece that I made with Mark Noad, inspired by the death of my mum earlier in the year.\nHere's the project in a nutshell: Take 26 pairs of writers and artists \u2013 one for each letter of the alphabet \u2013 and challenge them to make something inspired by a random word that starts with that letter. My letter was H and my word was Hearse.\nI was a bit nervous about going along to see my finished piece on the opening night. I mingled busily, grazed on wine and crisps, took my time looking at other people's work, and put off the moment when I'd have to go over and actually look at mine.\nBut it went very well. Someone whose views I value a lot said it was \"brilliantly clever and profoundly moving\". A few other people said they were touched by it. And a very nice man called Jerome liked it so much that he got his wallet out and bought it, there and then.\nThe show \u2013 with fantastic work from 26 other writers \u2013 is at the Free Word Centre in London until January and then goes on tour. But in the meantime, here's my bit. It's called \"Hearse rake the coals of my heart\"...\nHearse rake the coals of my heart\nAnd if you can't read the words...\nNever agreed\nEverything regretted\nNothing said beautifully\nLived inconsequentially\nFailed completely.\nRemember this need.\nYou cry: please...\nPlease cry\nRemember, love\nListen completely.\nFailed inconsequentially\nLived beautifully\nSaid nothing regretted\nEverything agreed\nNever wanted more.\nAnd here's the story of how I wrote it (you can read Mark's side of things here):\nMy word, Hearse, was chosen for me on the day my Mum died. She had a massive brain haemorrhage at home and never woke up. I appreciated the irony of the coincidence, as my Mum would have done, and decided not to ask for a different word.\nInitially I thought I could put my Mum out of my thoughts and write something hearse-related that had nothing to do with her. It didn\u2019t seem fair to dump all my grief onto Mark, my collaborator. And my Mum\u2019s death was the last thing I wanted to write about, or even think about.\nSo I began on safe ground, researching the etymology of my word. A hearse was originally a framework for candles that hung over a coffin. Its root is in the Old French herce \u2013 a long rake or harrow. That gave me a line, \u201cHearse, rake the coals of my heart\u201d, which eventually became our title.\nNext I discovered hearse-owner clubs, watched promotional videos for funeral industry trade shows, thought about roadside memorial shrines, marvelled at the literalness of the German word for hearse \u2013 Leichenwagen, corpse wagon.\nBewildered by the possibilities, and with a deadline looming, I decided to give myself a constraint. I would write a palindrome \u2013 a string of words that can be read backwards as well as forwards. This was tricky, but fun. I was pleased with the result.\nBut I decided it wasn\u2019t good enough. It just didn\u2019t say anything. And I had a nagging sense that I was avoiding what I really ought to be writing about. Then I noticed that the word I\u2019d been trying to dodge \u2013 mum \u2013 was itself a palindrome. That seemed like a sign to carry on, and to dig deeper.\nSo I started again. I wrote mum in the middle of a big sheet of paper and built a new palindrome around it. I wanted that central word to be a turning point. Everything leading up to it would be in one voice, with one meaning; everything afterwards would mean something very different.\nThis was hard and painful. I wanted to write something that was about loss and regret and love and forgiveness. It would be inspired by my mum, but I wanted to leave room for other people to relate to it in their own way.\nBefore Mark and I agreed the final text, we both felt one last change was needed. The word at the centre of the piece, around which everything revolved, had to go. For me it was a painful cut, but also a release. What remains can stand on its own.\nA sneaky shot of someone looking at Hearse...\nMe with Jerome, who bought Hearse... (hence I'm smiling)\nPosted by Neil at 10:38 AM 1 comment:\nMy main contribution to the gardening at home is to cut the grass and dig holes where I'm told to. But I enjoyed the ceramic flowers I found on a summer visit to the Botanic Gardens in Ventor.\nFrances Doherty's pieces were strange, unexpected and beautiful. I particularly liked the simple words that came with them. A glimpse of the story behind each work made for an engaging encounter.\n\"Scruffy\" hydrangeas...\nWhile cycling in Holland...\nScarlet poppies...\nFrom another inspiring cycle with friends...\nFrances wasn't the only person planting pleasing words in the Ventnor garden. I think this is the best \"sorry for the mess....\" sign I've ever read.\nPosted by Neil at 3:43 AM 1 comment:\nHow to find story ideas\nWhere do I get my short story ideas from? Mainly I just make them up. But once in a while I'll find something like this, an item in my local newspaper.\nWhat makes this the germ of a good story? For me, it's not the fact that this arch criminal was trying to escape the police in a kayak, or that his desire to start a new life in France was so spontaneously random. No, it's the fact that he was wearing a child's life jacket.\nPosted by Neil at 7:14 AM No comments:\nThe strange power of the pen\nEvery year, when I take a summer holiday, the first items to go into my suitcase are always the same. I pack my notebook, a spare notebook, my pens, spare ink, a few pencils \u2013 my writing tools and accoutrements.\nAnd that\u2019s where they stay \u2013 in the suitcase.\nI always think that when I\u2019m away from the daily routine, when I have spare time in abundance, I\u2019ll get lots of writing done.\nActually, I don\u2019t get lots of writing done. I don\u2019t get any done.\nBut that wasn\u2019t quite true this summer. I did sit down for ten whole minutes in August to make a few notes about a woman called Dora.\nDora owned the house we were renting on the island of Brac, Croatia. She came by one day to drop off some clean sheets and we got chatting.\nShe told me how she\u2019d bought the place as a ruin ten years ago. Originally it was a mill. Her husband renovated it as a hobby. His day job is teaching maths.\nShe\u2019d lived in this village \u2013 Bol \u2013 all her life. Her husband came from Murvica, a hamlet along the coast that only recently became accessible by road.\nI decided to ask Dora about something that had been puzzling me.\nThe five-minute walk from our holiday house to the sea goes past a derelict modernist hotel. It looked to me like a prime piece of property, ideal for investment. (And Bol is a classy beach town that\u2019s had plenty of money spent on it since the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s.)\nHow had the hotel got into such a mess, and why had nobody fixed it up?\nDora\u2019s English faltered at this point.\nThe problem had something to do with a dispute between the Catholic Church and the state, she explained in a vague way.\nOne of them owned the land \u2013 I couldn\u2019t quite understand which \u2013 and the other was blocking its redevelopment.\n\u201cBefore they were ok, now they are like this,\u201d she said, punching one fist with the other.\nI asked why, but she changed the subject.\nI had the feeling that our conversation about pool maintenance and how many towels I might need had strayed into territory she found uncomfortable. It\u2019s easy to forget; 20 years ago the people hereabouts were shooting their neighbours.\nIt interests me that I scribbled down some notes about our chat. I\u2019d say that I pressed Dora to talk about something she was reluctant to discuss because I\u2019m naturally curious. (Although my wife says I\u2019m just nosey)\nBut I wonder, was I subconsciously driven by all those unfilled notebook pages? Even when the pen stays in the suitcase, does it still exert a strange power?\nNot the best place in town\nEven worse inside\nHow I became a highly successful novelist\nYesterday, I discovered that I am a highly successful novelist. It was quite a surprise. I\u2019ve not managed to write a novel, never mind publish one.\nBut I have started two \u2013 maybe more, my hard drive is so cluttered. With the first, I got to about 27,000 words before I stopped. The second is about 60,000 words. I stopped that one too.\nUntil the day before yesterday, that made me sound like a failed novelist. Even a gutless one. I hadn\u2019t just not made it, I\u2019d given up. Twice.\nThe aim with the first book was to write every day for three weeks \u2013 a continuous narrative, with the words accruing day by day. Job done.\nFor the second book, I wanted to reach 60,000 words. Again, job done.\nI set my novel-writing goals and I achieved them. Hence I am a successful novelist.\nThe day before yesterday, when I was a failed novelist, I used to look back on my failures and wonder what went wrong. How could I avoid failure next time?\nI\u2019d need a rigid writing routine. I\u2019d need a clear, detailed plot outline. I\u2019d need to know what sort of WRITER I wanted to be. And I\u2019d need time. Lots and lots of extra time.\nNow that I\u2019ve realised I\u2019m a successful novelist, my thinking has changed.\nI\u2019m looking back on my two triumphs. Thinking about what worked, what success has taught me.\nI know I can write a lot of words. That\u2019s good. I can write every day, regardless of how busy I am with other stuff. When I\u2019ve got no idea what happens next, I can make things up.\nI\u2019ve learnt that I\u2019m flexible about process. I can write at home, on the train; out shopping, out running; on my own, with friends.\nI can use Word. Pages. Scrivener. Ommwriter. I can use my laptop or a typewriter. I can use pens or pencils. Expensive notebooks, cheap notebooks. Scraps of paper. Sticky notes. Glue. String.\nThe main thing I\u2019ve learned is this: I like doing it.\nI like doing it so much that even if a pernicious virus deleted every draft as soon as I typed The End, I\u2019d still keep doing it.\nNow it\u2019s true that I might have written an enormous amount of dross. But I think the same could apply to a lot of other novelists, many of those whose \u201csuccess\u201d is measured by more traditional yardsticks \u2013 such as sales, fame, critical acclaim.\nWhat I do know is that whenever I\u2019ve been writing my novels, I\u2019ve had fun. Well, it wasn\u2019t always fun. But it was satisfying. Hugely.\nSo I\u2019m a success. Is that a reasonable conclusion, or an absurd act of self-delusion? Or both? And does the answer matter? I don\u2019t think so.\nThe joys of making yourself look stupid\nTrying to do anything creative or different is a risky business. You might end up looking stupid. Your efforts might fail in a way that makes you unhappy. Try it at work and you could lose your job.\nIn the balance of putting yourself on the line versus playing safe, the scales are tipped heavily towards safe. That\u2019s because the opposite of safe is vulnerable, and most people don\u2019t like to feel vulnerable.\nI remember coming across the trade off when I studied interpersonal psychology at Birkbeck years ago. We looked at the odd ways people behave when they try to talk to each other. All those strategies aimed at saving face, not giving away too much, keeping your exit routes open.\nI watched a great TED talk earlier in the week called The Power of Vulnerability. Brene Brown explains why we try to avoid vulnerability and how \u2013 just maybe \u2013 the secret of happiness is to accept it. Or even to embrace it.\nI used to feel vulnerable a lot. Sometimes I still do. Quite often, actually, now I think about it. But it doesn\u2019t bother me so much. I go looking for opportunities to make myself vulnerable. I read stories to people in the street, I prance about on stage, I try to write words that move people.\nI\u2019m not sure when this change occurred or why. But I\u2019m glad it did.\nI think if you want to make a connection with people, you have to take the risk that it might all go horribly wrong \u2013 or maybe just a little bit wrong.\nYou can play safe and put nothing at stake. You\u2019ll limit your losses. But then you\u2019ll limit your rewards, too.\nWith the sudden death of my Mum last week, I nearly cancelled the event I'd planned for World Book Night on Tuesday. I wasn't sure I was in the right frame of mind to host a short story slam or to perform my \"on-the-spot writing\" shtick. But I'm glad I went ahead with it.\nFor one, I know my Mum would have wanted me to carry on as planned. She'd have hated her passing to have inconvenienced anyone. And I didn't want to let the organisers down; something Mum \u2013 and Dad \u2013 instilled in me when I was growing up.\nSo off I went to Guildford library. First, I helped to introduce a group of \"rising star\" writers to an audience of 130 eager readers. Later in the evening, I was interviewed by the local radio station and I hosted the story slam \u2013 both were great fun. But it was how I spent the time in between that I want to blog about.\nI'd been asked to repeat the challenge I took on last summer, when I was resident in a Whitstable bookshop, writing stories for whoever came in that day \u2013 and doing it fast enough so that I could perform a quick reading of the story and give it to the customer to take away.\nI wandered around the library, notebook in hand, approaching people at random and saying, \"I'm a writer, would you please inspire me?\"\nThe first person I met was Noreen. The easiest way you can inspire me, I said, is to tell me your favourite word. She didn't even have to think about it: \"sleep\", she said. Why? She has a young son and is studying in her \"spare\" time to get the qualifications she needs to change her career. Why does she want to change her career? Because it will help her find meaning in her life, she said.\nThat begged a question I felt I had to ask: do you feel your life lacks meaning at the moment? She reflected on this for a while. Then she smiled and said no, it doesn't. Her child gives it meaning. But she wanted more, perhaps some meaning she'd made herself. Hence she was studying.\nI thanked her, found a quiet corner, and started scribbling. Here is Noreen, with the words she inspired:\nThanks, Noreen\nIt wasn't enough, but she knew it wouldn't be. Each evening at 7.30 she put him to bed. And then she started her search. Beneath the cushions, behind the sofa, buried in the laundry pile: where was it, that person she used to be?\nNext I went and sat with a man called David. I started to explain why I wanted to talk to him, but he interrupted and went off on a beautiful riff of his own. First, he told me why his nose was bloodied: he'd come straight from the youth club where, chasing some of the kids around, he'd tripped over a plastic box and landed on his face. With that explanation out of the way, he told me about his interest in depression, the consequences of a Baptist upbringing, his role in the introduction of factory fishing to British waters, and the risks of offending family members when writing memoir (he's working on one, sometimes using an alter-ego he calls Doug).\nHe was sitting with his wife, Stevie, who finished off a few of his sentences and corrected any errors of fact or exaggeration. He called himself Dave, she preferred David. They reminded me of my Mum and Dad.\nAs with Noreen, I thanked David, found a quiet corner, and tried to write a few words inspired by what he had shared with me. Here he is, with his words:\nSometimes I call myself Doug, just to get away, just to step back from the edge. See this Abyss? It's always there, it's in my juices. I fear I will fall into it. But I've seen so much and I've done so much and I've so much left to do. So much to say. One day, I'll just be Dave.\nI found both Noreen and David later in the evening, read them the words they'd inspired and gave them my pencil version, written on the back of a card like this:\nI don't make any claims about the quality of the words I wrote in such haste; perhaps the value is in the process. I felt I made a connection with both David and Noreen, and that please me. Always when writing, I'm trying to make a connection that moves the reader. But it's easy to forget that good \"writing\" moves the writer, too \u2013 and that the word \"writing\" applies to the process as much as the end result. It's a verb as much as a noun. A more specific word than connection would be bridge: the traffic can flow in both directions.\nPosted by Neil at 5:01 AM 6 comments:\nLife and its strange ironies\nI was reading an interview with the author Terry Pratchett over lunch. Towards the end, he started talking about death \u2013 an event much on his mind, as he has early Alzheimer\u2019s. \u201cIt's not morbid to talk about death,\u201d he says. \u201cMost people don't worry about death, they worry about a bad death.\u201d\nMy Mum felt the same way, I think. She was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma last year. Her attitude to it was wonderfully stoical. The chemotherapy will either cure me or it won\u2019t, she said. I don\u2019t think she was putting on a brave face for my benefit. She trusted her doctors to do their best; she\u2019d have the treatment and see what happened.\nMum beat her cancer, and was given the all-clear in January. She was busy regaining her fitness and making plans about what to do next. And then last Monday night she suffered a massive brain haemorrhage. On Wednesday afternoon she died.\nFrom the moment a blood vessel deep in her brain burst, she never regained consciousness. But I\u2019m glad that I had the chance to sit at her bedside and chat away telling stories with my Dad, brother and sister, as though Mum were wide awake, on the mend and waiting for her turn to pick up the story \u2013 or, more likely, to tell us we\u2019d all got it arse about face before starting again with her own version.\nMum loved to tell a good story, and would have appreciated the narrative value of the many strange coincidences \u2013 or cruel ironies \u2013 that surrounded the nature and timing of her passing. And believe me, there were many of them. But as I\u2019m sure she\u2019d have pointed out, that is the way of the world. And whether she heard my words or not, I\u2019m glad I had the chance to thank her for bringing me into it.\nMum and Dad in the stable he built. When she asked my why I was taking a photo of them both looking so scruffy, I told her I wanted to capture their natural habitat\nBath time train story\nI guess you might call this a 'found story'.\nI overheard a girl on the train, talking on the phone to a friend.\nI wrote down what she said...\n\"So we spent five hours talking about our relationship and I told him we were splitting up. He phoned me later and he's in the bath, with his clothes on, crying. He says he's taken loads of sleeping pills, but they're herbal ones and they've given him diarrhoea. I mean, who wears their clothes in the bath?\"\nI think she maybe lacks empathy.\nThe story behind my Limehouse story\nNow that my Limehouse story has been published (read it here), I thought I'd set out some thoughts about where the idea came from and how it developed.\nI\u2019ve already blogged about this project and my first visit to the area, when I took lots of photos and made pages of notes. The mile of the London Marathon route that I'd been commissioned to write about had so much potential. The challenge wasn\u2019t to come up with an idea, but to find some sense in all the rambling thoughts it provoked.\nDickens was an obvious early starting point. My mile has a pub where, as a child, he was made to dance on the tables for money \u2013 a pub that features in at least one of his novels. But I wanted to dig deeper.\nWhat about the wharves? Narrow Road is lined with them. These are the small docks, slipways and storehouses from which some of first \u2013 voluntary \u2013 passengers set sail to Australia.\nOne of them, Dunbar Wharf, was once the headquarters of the world's largest private shipping fleet. I read about its founder, Duncan Dunbar, the seventh son of a Scottish tenant farmer, who moved to London and made his fortune in wine and spirits. And I read about his son, also Duncan, who built the shipping business.\nHe named his largest ship the Duncan Dunbar, whether in honour of himself or his father nobody knew. I learned that it ran aground three years after his death off the coast of Brazil. Its captain landed his passengers on a sandspit and rowed 120 miles in an open boat to get help (everyone was rescued 10 days later). Another story told of a ship that caught fire off Australia \u2013 the last anyone saw of its captain was when, to rescue her from the flames, he threw his wife overboard.\nI read the younger Duncan\u2019s will to see what story ideas it might suggest, but felt my attention drawn back to the streets of Limehouse.\nNext I researched Alderman Henry Potter, a mayor of Stepney, who gave his name to Potters Dwellings, an alms building on Limehouse Causeway.\nI discovered that he once made an incredibly tedious, and obsequious, address to members of the royal family, which I read to no benefit. Then I became intrigued by the fact that Potters Dwelling had been renamed Saunders Close.\nI learned that a Mr Saunders was the caretaker of the building during the second world war. It was renamed after him in honour of the valiant \u2013 but frustratingly unspecified \u2013 deeds he performed during the Blitz. I found someone who, before the war, attended the school next door, and remembered the building under its old name. She knew Mr Saunders had done something incredible, but didn't know what.\nFinally I read about the Chinese community that used to live here, how they made it London's original Chinatown, before just about everyone moved to Soho. Many of them worked the early steam-liners that docked in London. It was only when these young hands arrived that they found their passage was one-way \u2013 they had no means of returning home and were destitute, unless they could find work on another ship. The idea of writing about one of them appealed.\nI looked into this further. I read about Fu Man Chu and the Yellow Peril, Jack London's journeys into \"The Abyss\". I discovered that the Chinese community that took root on my mile were mainly from Canton and Southern China. Their compatriots from Shanghai lived about a mile to the northeast, around Pennyfields, Amoy Place and Ming Street.\nI remembered that about a year ago I wrote a story based in Southern China for the children of my local primary school, one that took inspiration from ancient folk tales that mixed human and animal characters I started to wonder what might happen if I transported some of those characters to Victorian Limehouse \u2013 how would their hopes and fears manifest themselves in the London of 1892?\nAlong the way, I found myself reading the transcripts of trials held around that time at the Old Bailey, London's main criminal court. They captured a form of justice that was brief and brutal. The idea of characters bearing testament appealed. A line kept running through my head: \"I am Sheep, some say I steal\". It became the first line of my story.\nThe last step, I teamed up with my illustrator, Nick Parker. The need to brief Nick made me think more deeply about what my story was about, and what mood I was after. His response to early drafts, and his initial drawings, made me revise the piece endlessly \u2013 until the final deadline arrived, when I put down my pen, crossed my fingers and handed everything over to my editor, Rishi Dastidar. And there my story ends, or begins.\nMonkey! One of Nick's brilliant illustrations\nPosted by Neil at 11:52 PM 5 comments:\nA bit of competition success\nOne of my writing aims for this year is to enter more competitions. I'm off to a good start, placing second in a flash fiction challenge run by the Nottingham Festival of Words.\nI don't normally enter comps. There's such a long gap between sending off a story and hearing the result; I'm too impatient. But my artist friend Elaine tipped me off to this one, so I thought I'd give it a go.\nThe brief was simple: tell a story in fifty words or less. I decided to polish up one of the stories that I wrote last summer, when I was hanging out in a Whitstable bookshop, writing flash fictions inspired by customers. (And thanks to the great people of ReAuthoring for that opportunity)\nThe story, originally called Anticipation, was inspired by a lovely lady called Anne. Somewhere beneath the piles of paper cluttering my desk, I've got her email address. I hope I can find it, so that I can thank her again.\nHere's the finished version of the story, with its new name:\nI told my husband that anticipation was everything. There is not enough suspense, I said. He thought for a year and said this: I will leave you for another woman, but I won\u2019t tell you when \u2013 would that do? You are a year too late, I said, shutting the door.\nI'm going to be repeating my \"writing on the spot\" experiment again in April, as part of an event celebrating World Book Night. But more about that later.\nHere's Anne again\nHere's the first draft, written in the bookshop\nPosted by Neil at 3:31 PM 1 comment:\nSit down and have a listen\nWhatever happened to shameless self-publicity? I can't believe I've forgotten to post a link to this.\nAt the back end of last year the Fates smiled kindly on me. A strange string of coincides occurred. The result: the brilliant Vince Franklin, an actor to whom I could utter the cringey words \"I love your work\" and really mean it, recorded a version of my short story, Docile Creatures.\nClick below, and you can have a listen.\n(You know, writing this now I'm amazed all over again that someone who straddled the Holy Trinity of modern British TV comedy \u2013 i.e. The Office, The Thick of It, and 2012 \u2013 did a reading for me. Thanks again, Vince)\nLimehouse photos\nI thought I'd create a collage of some of the photos that I'm using to inspire my Limehouse project. Is this a \"mood board\"? Don't know, but it's useful.\nLooking for inspiration in Limehouse\nJust before Christmas I took a trip to Limehouse, part of London\u2019s old docklands. I\u2019m writing about the area for a project called 26 miles. Specifically, I\u2019m writing about one mile of tarmac that runs through Limehouse.\nThe idea behind the project is simple. Take the 26 miles of the official London Marathon route and allocate each mile to a writer; tell each writer to produce a \u201ccreative response\u201d to their mile, in collaboration with an artist from a different discipline. (I\u2019ll post more about my collaborator another time). The writers' collective 26 will publish the resulting work in April, to coincide with the marathon.\nMy mile is the fourteenth on the marathon route. It runs along two roads: Narrow Street and Limehouse Causeway. I knew it already as I\u2019ve run the marathon three times (or four, I've lost count). This is the point on the course where the streets quieten down, the excitement of reaching Tower Bridge (the halfway marker) has begun to fade, and Canary Wharf \u2013with the endless miles that wind around it like a snake \u2013 looms on the horizon.\nI walked the mile notebook in frozen hand, camera at the ready, looking for something that would get my creative juices flowing. I struck gold straight away. On Westferry Road there\u2019s an old brick warehouse building. A sign says it is \u2013 or used to be \u2013 \u201cThe Cannon Workshops\u201d. On the wall facing the street there\u2019s a line of twelve clocks. Each one labeled with a different time zone.\nA relic of London\u2019s industrial past, I reckoned. Just the spark I needed. I took lots of photos. Pondered and reflected. Got excited.\nBut a bit of research revealed that these clocks are not what I thought. They\u2019re an art installation by Richard Wentworth. I was disappointed, at first. But I found that I kept coming back to a line in a statement Wentworth made describing the purpose of the work: \"Geographical good fortune is the source of London's success, and in their previous form the West India Docks were central to it.\"\nThat got me thinking about characters for whom London's geography was a source of disaster, not success. Into the historical archives I went. And that's where I still am. But I'm inspire now. And there are two images that might be important: a photo that I took and a book cover that I found.",

        "raw_content": "Immigrants and Taxes - Contributing But Not Collecting\n(NU) \u2013 America\u2019s economy is flailing, and 78 million baby boomers are nearing retirement, at which point they will leave the workforce to receive massive amounts of Social Security Administration (SSA) benefits. In a time of major economic downturn, the unlikely \u201csaving grace\u201d is the immigrant population,which pays into the Social Security system without collecting benefits.Undocumented immigrants in the U.S. comprise approximately 5 percent of the workforce. Contrary to popular belief, between one-half and three-quarters ofundocumented immigrants pay federal and state income taxes, Social Securityand Medicare taxes \u2013 in addition to sales and property taxes. As of October 2005, the SSA concluded that undocumented immigrants contributed anestimated $520 billion to the Social Security system \u2013 a figure that would increase exponentially if all of these immigrants were required to earn their legal status and contribute their share.\nDespite the absence of progressive immigration policy reform, the tax contributions of immigrants are very evident. Even at the state level, undocumented immigrants still pay more in taxes than they use in public\n\u2022 The Texas State Comptroller determined in a 2006 study that\nundocumented immigrants produced $1.58 billion in state revenues,\nexceeding the $1.16 billion they received in state services.\n\u2022 The Oregon Center for Public Policy in 2007 estimated that\nundocumented immigrants pay state income, excise, property taxes,\nfederal Social Security and Medicare taxes totaling between \u201c$134 million\nto $187 million annually.\u201d Meanwhile, Oregon employers paid an\nestimated $97 million to $136 million annually on behalf of their\nundocumented workers.\n\u2022 The Iowa Policy Project determined that \u201cundocumented immigrants pay\nan estimated aggregate amount of $40 million to $62 million in state taxes\neach year.\u201d Immigrants also make tax contributions through their\nenormous purchasing power. In a 2002 study by the Center for Urban\nEconomic Development at the University of Chicago, researchers found\nthat undocumented immigrants in the Chicago metro area spent $2.81\nbillion in 2001 \u2013 spending which \u201csustained 31,908 jobs in the local\nAs the baby boomers creep towards retirement and begin to strain the SSA,\nimmigrants will be subsidizing Social Security benefits, making retirement\npossible for millions of Americans. By requiring the undocumented to come out\nof the shadows and earn legal status, immigrants will not only contribute by\npaying taxes, but will play a hefty role in shoring up the teetering Social Security\nsystem, and provide a fiscal windfall to U.S. taxpayers.\nFor more information, visit The American Immigration Lawyers Association at\nwww.aila.org.",

        "raw_content": "ACEP Launches Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation Program - May 10, 2018\nWASHINGTON, May 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) has launched its new Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation (GEDA) program. The program is part of an effort to improve and standardize emergency care for the nation's older patients and builds on the financial support and foundational work of the Gary and Mary West Health Institute and The John A. Hartford Foundation.\n\"Older adults visit emergency departments at a high rate, they often present with multiple chronic conditions and face more social and physical challenges than the general population,\" said Paul Kivela, MD, MBA, FACEP, president of ACEP. \"Seniors who visit ACEP accredited emergency departments can be assured that the facilities have the necessary expertise, equipment and personnel in place to provide optimal care. This initiative will greatly enhance geriatric emergency care, especially in rural areas, and help ease older patients back into their daily lives after an emergency occurs.\"\nThe GEDA program promotes the goals of providing quality care for older adult patients. These include enhanced staffing and education and geriatric-focused policies and protocols, including transitions of care, quality improvement and outcomes and more efficient preparation of the treatment area.\nKevin Biese, MD, FACEP, will manage the project. The launch of the accreditation program follows the creation of geriatric emergency department guidelines by ACEP and other medical groups that went into effect in 2014.\n\"The nation's emergency departments operate more like care transition hubs,\" said Dr. Biese in an interview featured in Annals of Emergency Medicine. \"In addition to treating acute conditions, emergency physicians have a unique opportunity to develop a more comprehensive approach to caring for older patients; reviewing and flagging concerns that help reduce future hospital stays and assisting with care transitions.\"\nApproximately 60 percent of Medicare patients admitted to the hospital arrive through the emergency department, according to 2013 RAND research. Multiple studies in Annals of Emergency Medicine note the vulnerability of older adults after an emergency visit.\n\"There is a tremendous opportunity to better address the needs of the 20 million seniors who visit our nation's emergency departments annually,\" said Shelley Lyford, president and CEO of the West Health Institute. \"We're proud to partner with ACEP on the nation's first initiative to help standardize the quality of emergency care for older adults across the country. We're very pleased that the Gary and Mary West Emergency Department at UC San Diego Health is leading the way in California as the first in the state to be accredited by ACEP in recognition of its commitment to delivering high-quality, geriatric care.\"\nThe voluntary accreditation includes three levels (similar to trauma designations) with specific criteria and goals for clinicians and administrators. Requirements begin with demonstrating that the participating emergency department (1) includes both a physician and nurse with specialized geriatric training on staff, (2) meets environmental criteria such as easy patient access to water and mobility aids and (3) has a geriatric quality improvement program.\nHospitals are encouraged to start at the level most appropriate for their institutions and strive to reach higher levels of accreditation over time. Accreditation provides more than two dozen best practices for geriatric care and is now available nationwide. The program will launch to the international market in the next year.\n\"We have seen a proliferation of so-called 'geriatric' emergency departments over the last several years, and the GEDA program will for the first time provide public assurance that these sites are actually meeting standards that can improve care and outcomes for older adults,\" said Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, president of The John A. Hartford Foundation. \"We are proud to be a part of the effort.\"\nEight emergency departments are currently accredited as part of the GEDA pilot program:\nAurora Medical Center of Oshkosh (WI)\nAurora Sheboygan Memorial Medical Center (WI)\nAurora Sinai Medical Center (WI)\nAurora St. Luke's South Shore Medical Center (WI)\nAurora West Allis Medical Center (WI)\nThe Mount Sinai Hospital (NY)\nSt. Joseph's University Medical Center (NJ)\nThe Gary and Mary West Emergency Department at University of California, San Diego Health, La Jolla (CA)\nVisit https://www.acep.org/GEDAHome for more information.\nAbout the Gary and Mary West Health Institute\nSolely funded by philanthropists Gary and Mary West, West Health includes the nonprofit and nonpartisan Gary and Mary West Health Institute and Gary and Mary West Foundation in San Diego and the Gary and Mary West Health Policy Center in Washington, DC. These organizations are working together toward a shared mission dedicated to enabling seniors to successfully age in place with access to high-quality, affordable health and support services that preserve and protect their dignity, quality of life and independence. For more information, visit westhealth.org and follow @westhealth.\nThe John A. Hartford Foundation, based in New York City, is a private, nonpartisan, national philanthropy dedicated to improving the care of older adults. For more than three decades, the organization has been the leader in building a field of experts in aging and testing and replicating innovative approaches to care. The Foundation has three areas of emphasis: creating age-friendly health systems, supporting family caregivers, and improving serious illness and end-of-life care. Working with its grantees, the Foundation strives to change the status quo and create a society where older adults can continue their vital contributions.

Our race team has been around for more than 50 years so we can relate to how hard the Oberto group has worked to build their following over the decades.\u201d\nFunny Car driver, Jim Campbell, will be signing autographs at the stadium prior to the Mariners game, and will then appear on-field during pre-game ceremonies. Fans attending the game can get their picture taken next to the Oberto 100th Anniversary Funny Car starting at 5:00pm this Thursday at SafeCo Field.\nFollowing the stadium festivities, the Funny Car will then be transported back to its pit area at Pacific Raceways in preparation for the weekend\u2019s NHRA national event.

        "raw_content": "Rise of the Samurai: How Japan\u2019s growing military is setting off alarm bells both in Japan and around the world.\nAs tensions with China continue to escalate, Japan is ramping up the role of its military as a deterrent power. But many are worried this aggressive posture will lead to a repeat of the mistakes of the past.\n\u201cAs I don\u2019t know the purpose and intention of unidentified aircraft approaching our air space, I always become tense\u201d, says Sho Yoshida, a fighter pilot with Japan\u2019s Self Defence Forces. This unified military outfit was formed following the Allied occupation of Japan at the end of WW2, and is constitutionally restricted to defending the nation. But now a heightening feud with China over the disputed Senkaku Islands, as well as the country\u2019s proximity to a wildly unpredictable North Korea, has led Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to reinterpret the legal framework that governs the SDF, with a view to transforming it into a force equipped for offensive operations. \u201cUnless it has the power to strike, it cannot become a so-called \u2018deterrent power'\u201d, explains retired general Toshio Tamogami. And after a number of well-funded recruitment campaigns, enrolments at Japan\u2019s elite military college are at a record high. But not everyone here support the moves. \u201cJapan has not really reflected on its past\u201d, bemoans Tadmasa Iwaii, a WW2 veteran and former Kamikaze-turned-pacifist. \u201cIt hurts my conscience.\u201d\nABC Australia \u2013 Ref 6239\nSubscribe to Journeyman for more: http://www.youtube.com/journeymanpict\u2026\nFor downloads and more information visit: http://www.journeyman.tv/?lid=67659\nexpansionjapanmilitary",

        "title": "Northern Virginia Antiques & Collectibles: Andy Warhol Paintings Not Recession Proof",
        "raw_content": "Many years ago, when I was a lot younger, I owned an Andy Warhol Coca Cola T-Shirt and boy do I wish I would have kept it around. Although probably not worth as much as one of his paintings, it is always nice to have pieces of memorabilia from your past. It wasn\u2019t too long ago that all Warhol collectibles were going for a premium price, however in these days of economic recession prices seem to be down. This is even more evident in the art world. At a Sotheby\u2019s Auction yesterday, many pieces of art went either unsold or brought it less money than they were expected to bring including the paintings by Andy Warhol.\nA compilation of 10 silkscreen paintings of skulls, which was expected to bring in more than 12 million at auction, brought in a mere $7.5 million. This compilation of paintings was first put together by a Zurich art dealer, Thomas Ammann, in 1976 and is said to represent the \u201cthe literal multiplication of death.\u201d Each of the 10 canvases in this compilation was painted in different and contrasting colors and were signed by Warhol, who was one of the central figures in the Pop Art movement. Last year, Christie\u2019s, sold Green Burning Car I, by Andy Warhol for a record breaking price of $71 million.\nAndy Warhol was born Andrew Warhola on August 6, 1928. Better known for his paintings and artwork, he was also a filmmaker, author and illustrator. In addition, he is also well known for the phrase that he coined regarding everyone\u2019s \u201cfifteen minutes of fame.\u201d As with most artists, his work evolved as time went by. His works, which are as highly sought after today as they originally were, were the subjects of many scandals in the 1960\u2019s. In the 1970\u2019s, he toned down his celebrity and started getting more portrait commissions from the rich and famous including the Beatles\u2019 John Lennon and Diana Ross of the Supremes.\nWarhol was to evolve again in the 1980\u2019s after some criticized his works of the 1970\u2019s as too commercial and without substance. He started hanging around with other artists that were up and coming at the time including Jean-Michael Basquiat and David Salle. He had very successful exhibitions of his art and a resurgence in the interest of Warhol paintings again gripped art collectors. Unfortunately, his life was cut short and in 1987 after routine gall bladder surgery, Warhol had a heart attack and died. However, many would agree that Andy Warhol has overly exceeded his fifteen minutes of fame.\nLabels: Andy Warhol, Art, art auctions, auction, Basquiat, Christie's, collectibles, New York City, paintings, pop art, pop culture, Skulls, Sotheby's, Thomas Ammann, vintage, vintage collectibles, Warhol",

        "raw_content": "A confluence of major events made for a slightly hectic week, as players from three ordinarily nonintersecting domains crowded the city\u2019s stage. More than 150 heads of state and government converged on New York for the U.N.\u2019s 60th anniversary, gridlocking traffic, filling up countless presidential and royal suites in hotels, and\u2014in the case of Silvio Berlusconi and pals\u2014dining out on pizza, tuna roe, and tripe Florentine. George W. Bush, newly humbled by the Katrina fiasco, sounded an unwonted conciliatory note in a speech before the world body. The president also put his arm around Kofi Annan, not a particular friend of the Bush administration. (No word on whether he terrified the secretary-general by whispering into his ear, \u201cYou\u2019re doin\u2019 a heckuva job, Kofi.\u201d) Meanwhile, across town in the Sheraton, Bill Clinton put on his own international forum, summoning kings, presidents, CEOs, and, of course, his own wife to grapple with issues like world poverty. But global matters, however weighty, could not eclipse local politics. Despite a tepid turnout, the Democratic primary concluded in nail-biting fashion\u2014until Anthony Weiner conceded the next morning to Freddy Ferrer to avoid a divisive runoff. This (shrewd) act of magnanimity enraged the Post, which editorialized WEINER WEASELS. Although Ferrer, with weak support outside his Hispanic base, seems poised to be crushed by Mayor Bloomberg, he might derive some hope from the fact that the most common surname on New York\u2019s voter-registration rolls is now \u201cRodriguez.\u201d Finally, Fashion Week was not without its drama. At the Rolling Stones concert (attended by Linda Evangelista and Kate Moss), Mick Jagger wore a feathered Prada coat lined with lavender silk, tossing it across the stage during \u201cSympathy for the Devil.\u201d But the most talked-about event was the collapse of a massive lighting rig at Diane Von Furstenberg\u2019s show, which sent several bloodied fashionistas to the emergency room and supposedly destroyed someone\u2019s Prada sweater. \u201cHurricane Diane,\u201d Simon Doonan called it. It seemed destined to become one of the most storied moments in the history of fashion, rivaling the time Coco Chanel sighed.\nArticles by Jim Holt\nFrom the Sep 16, 2005 issue of New York",

        "raw_content": "The sign was emblazoned with red letters: \u201cJesus Christ Superstar? NO! Lord and Savior!\u201d\nMy youngest son and I had to make our way past the protestors if we were going to watch the classic 70s rock opera penned by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber. A balding man rushed toward me, waving a sheet of paper. \u201cWould you like to know the real Jesus?\u201d he asked.\n\u201cI\u2019m a Christian,\u201d I replied. \u201cI know the real Jesus.\u201d\nAs I scurried toward the theater entrance, the man said, \u201cYou might want to re-read your Bible!\u201d\nMaking our way to our seats, my son asked why these folks were so angry about Jesus Christ Superstar. I told him that the musical had been controversial from the beginning. Perhaps the protestors didn\u2019t like a Bible story mixed with rock music. Maybe they were uncomfortable with Mary Magdalene\u2019s secret love for Jesus. Or they could have been miffed that the musical ends with the crucifixion of Christ without covering the Resurrection.\nNo matter \u2013 these folks were on a holy crusade to snatch a theatergoer from the jaws of hell.\nI\u2019m still amazed how we Christians major in the minors. Seeing a teachable moment with my son, I shared that the protestors could have better invested their time in feeding the homeless or visiting the sick. I didn\u2019t want to come across as too holier-than-thou, but I confess that I was miffed. As a performer myself, I know that the power of drama can move hearts in a way that sometimes the spoken word just can\u2019t do. Even my 25-year old son, who hasn\u2019t regularly attended church since high school, admitted that the crucifixion scene toward the end of the musical was particularly poignant.\nThere is a line that Mary Magdalene sings to the sleeping Jesus that I believe even the protestors would agree with. In I Don\u2019t Know How to Love Him, Mary confesses, \u201cI\u2019ve been changed, yes really changed. In these past few days, when I\u2019ve seen myself, I seem like someone else.\u201d Later in the song, Mary wonders why Jesus moves her so because, after all, \u201che\u2019s a man; he\u2019s just a man.\u201d\nJesus Christ Superstar focuses on the human nature of Jesus, but for those who are paying attention, there\u2019s something else going on here. Jesus is no mere man. He has the power to rescue a prostitute, galvanize disciples, provoke a mighty empire. Mary Magdalene couldn\u2019t understand why a flesh-and-blood man (and she had had many men) could move her so. I choose to believe that even a secularized portrayal of Jesus, done powerfully, can prod theatergoers to ask the same question. I have faith that God has many tools at His disposal to draw people to His Son, so in the end they join Mary in confessing, \u201cI love him so.\u201d\nJesus Christ Superstar, Mary Magdalene, Power of Drama\nBob Meser says\nL Winter says\nBravo! Yes, that\u2019s the beauty of art\u2026it creates thought, emotion, beauty, conversation. Of course, some \u201cart\u201d crosses the line, but JCS attempts to reach a different audience than the one already in the pews on Sunday mornings. It\u2019s a bit unconventional, controversial\u2026oh, kind of like Jesus.\nDonna Lynn says\nWell said my friend\u2026.I\u2019ve been dealing with evangelist bikers out here in the sticks, who are driving people away from Christ rather than loving unconditionally as He instructed us\u2026..

        "raw_content": "The Curse of the Wendigo\nThe Monstrumologist # 2\nMy copy: paperback, bought from Bestsellers\nWhile attempting to disprove that Homo vampiris, the vampire, could exist, Dr. Warthrop is asked by his former fiancee to rescue her husband from the Wendigo, a creature that starves even as it gorges itself on human flesh, which has snatched him in the Canadian wilderness. Although Warthrop also considers the Wendigo to be fictitious, he relents and rescues her husband from death and starvation, and then sees the man transform into a Wendigo. Can the doctor and Will Henry hunt down the ultimate predator, who, like the legendary vampire, is neither living nor dead, whose hunger for human flesh is never satisfied? This second book in The Monstrumologist series explores the line between myth and reality, love and hate, genius and madness.\nI only really read The Monstrumologist last month because I got into this agreement with Aaron and Tricia that I will read the second book with them. What is it with me scaring myself silly all of a sudden, yes? I don\u2019t know, either. If it were up to me, I would probably wait another year to read the next book in this series to give me (more than) enough recovery time. But because I can be such a pushover sometimes, I gave in and read The Curse of the Wendigo soon after I finished the first book, even if my nerves were still slightly wracked from all the Halloween scare and I was busy with NaNoWriMo.\nSo, The Curse of the Wendigo is the second book in The Monstrumologist series, and it features the older Will Henry\u2019s journals, specifically folios 4-6. Here we find another adventure of Will Henry with his mentor, Dr. Pellinore Warthrop. Warthrop receives a letter that his mentor is about to make a statement in the next gathering of all monstrumologists that they were to include \u201csupernatural\u201d creatures in the roster of monsters that they know \u2014 creatures such as vampires, werewolves and the like. Warthrop adamantly believes that they do not exist, and was enraged to hear about this. As he was preparing for his rebuttal, a beautiful lady comes knocking at their door \u2014 it was Muriel Chanler, Warthrop\u2019s old friend and ex-fiance. She asks for Warthrop\u2019s help: her husband and his old friend John Chanler had gone hunting for the mythical Wendigo and had gone missing. Despite Warthrop\u2019s misgivings about his old friend\u2019s hunt for this creature, he goes out to bring him back, even if only to give him a proper burial if he is really dead. Will Henry, the ever loyal apprentice, tags along, and finds himself in another sort of horrific world that tests his loyalty and his beliefs in things such as love, hate and friendship.\nI will come out and say it right now: if I really liked The Monstrumologist, I think I loved The Curse of the Wendigo more. The second book in the series gives us a bigger view the world that Will Henry lived in. The first book was really more on what monstrumology is, and how Will Henry has come to lived in such a world. It focuses more on how humans aren\u2019t really at the top of the food chain and we can just be hunted as any other animal out there. There was a certain distance with the horror that the first book can give: at the end of the book, it never became really personal for Will Henry, much less for the doctor. It was, for them, another day\u2019s work. There were casualties, but it was still work.\nThe Curse of the Wendigo makes things more personal, especially for the doctor. Rick Yancey excels in making Pellinore Warthrop\u2019s character shine in this book. The first book tells us about his chosen profession, the second book told us all about his life: how he wanted to be a poet (!!!), how he was almost married, how he had a friend, how he lost both the love of his life and his friend when he made a choice. I always thought Warthrop was this old man who was passionate about the odd things, but in the second book, I saw him as an entirely different person. First impressions show Warthrop as a cold and scientific man, but here we see him as a real person capable of caring, loving and loyal even up to the end, to the point of dismissing everything that everyone is telling him.\nThe horror level in this book is also almost entirely different from its predecessor. I felt that the anthropophagi in the first book were considered as animals, but here, the wendigo is really more of a psycho killer that was out for revenge. The crime scenes were more a notch more brutal, almost downright disgusting. If I did not know that the book was set in the 1880\u2019s, I would have thought it fit a modern murder mystery story. Not that it\u2019s a bad thing \u2014 it made getting immersed in the story easier for me (although perhaps it was just because of all the CSI episodes I watched). Yancey writes the entire story of hunting the wendigo (and also, not hunting the wendigo) with excellent pacing that it came to a point that I cannot put the book down.\nBut the best part of this book for me really is how much we see of Warthrop here. I have to go back to that because that\u2019s really the strength of this book. I don\u2019t think this would count as a fictional crush, but it\u2019s really more of the admiration of how strong and weak and broken a character can be. I also really liked that we see everything through Will Henry\u2019s eyes, and through all that, we see that the doctor is not the cold and purely scientific man from the first impression. The tender moment at the end of the sixth folio was enough to induce tears, and I would have shed them if I did not finish the book while I was commuting. When I finished the book, I had zero doubt that Pellinore Warthrop thought of Will Henry like a son, and it kind of hurts to wonder what will happen to them by the twelfth folio.\nI thought The Curse of the Wendigo is even better than The Monstrumologist, and it is one of the best books I\u2019ve read in 2011. Once again I am very glad I allowed myself to be \u201cbullied\u201d into reading this. I promise, though, that I don\u2019t have to be bullied to read the third book. Once the paperback is released (because all my series books must match), I will definitely read it without waiting for someone to push me into starting it. ;)\nReviews of other books in The Monstrumologist series:\n# 1: The Monstrumologist\nPosted in: Reviews \\ Tagged: 2011, 5 stars, favorites, horror, Pellinore Warthrop, Rick Yancey, The Monstrumologist, Will Henry, YA\nNovember 4, 2011 5:19 am \\ by Tina\nThese are the secrets I have kept. This is the trust I never betrayed. But he is dead now and has been for nearly ninety years, the one who gave me his trust, the one for whom I kept these secrets. The one who saved me . . . and the one who cursed me.\nSo starts the diary of Will Henry, orphan and assistant to a doctor with a most unusual specialty: monster hunting. In the short time he has lived with the doctor, Will has grown accustomed to his late night callers and dangerous business. But when one visitor comes with the body of a young girl and the monster that was eating her, Will\u2019s world is about to change forever. The doctor has discovered a baby Anthropophagus\u2014a headless monster that feeds through a mouth in its chest\u2014and it signals a growing number of Anthropophagi. Now, Will and the doctor must face the horror threatening to overtake and consume our world before it is too late.\nThe main reason I bought The Monstrumologist last year was because of the cover. I thought it had a very good and creepy design, and the title\u2019s font made it seem like someone was whispering it to you \u2014 \u201cThe Monstrumologist\u201c. I didn\u2019t really know what it was about, but I relied on the Printz medallion on the cover and believed it was good. Every time I see this on my shelf I felt like someone was whispering to me, but I never got around to reading it for so many reasons. When Aaron read it and said it was \u201c\u2026the type of book that should come with a warning: Caution: Not for the faint heart or weak stomach \u2013 that sort of thing\u201d, I put it down further my TBR, thinking I\u2019ll read it when I\u2019m ready because I am so not the one who goes for gore. But alas, I\u2019m pretty easy to bully when it comes to reading, so when my October Required Reading came around, I had no choice but to put this on my reading list.\nYou\u2019d think The Monstrumologist is a pretty easy-peasy not-so-scary YA novel about monsters. You\u2019d think. Twelve-year-old Will Henry is left orphaned after his parents died in a fire, and he was taken in by his dad\u2019s employer, Dr. Pellinore Warthrop. Warthrop is not an ordinary doctor \u2014 he is a monstrumologist. Warthrop is self-absorbed, often buried in his work and has young Will Henry at his beck and call. One night, a grave digger arrives at their doorstep bringing the most curious package: the cold remains of a young girl that is being devoured by a very terrifying and a very dead monster. It was an Anthropophagus: a monster shaped like a human but with no head, mouth on its stomach and black eyes on its shoulders. Anthropophagi feed on human flesh, but that is not the most curious thing that got the doctor wondering. Anthropophagi are native in Africa, so finding one in New Jerusalem was the singular curiosity \u2014 never mind that finding scary man-eating monsters was already the strangest thing for young Will Henry. Now it is up to the doctor and Will Henry (and some \u201cfriends\u201d \u2014 and I use the term loosely) to figure out how these man-eating monsters got there, and to stop them before they go on an eating spree.\nAaron\u2018s review got me preparing for the worst for this book. Seeing that I\u2019m such a big chicken, I was all set to read this in broad daylight. As luck would had it, I ended up reading this while I was on the Alabat Island trip with my Goodreads friends. Not that it\u2019s bad, but because the part of Quezon province we visited wasn\u2019t exactly an urban area. While it wasn\u2019t completely rural (we did sleep on foam mattresses after all), it was still a quiet place with lots of trees, especially when we were on our way to and back from the beach. And it was dark, very dark at night. Somewhere during those trips there, I realize that it may be a bit of a bad decision to read this book while I was there. The Monstrumologist isn\u2019t scary in the way ghost books are scary. It doesn\u2019t really give that spine tingling feeling, or the type that makes me want to sleep with the lights on. Instead, The Monstrumologist gave me that creepy look-over-your-shoulder feeling after. While it did not make my spine tingle like how Paranormal Activity 3 did after I watched it, it did make me look over my shoulder a few times. I knew in my heart that this is all fiction, but a little voice at the back of my head was asking, \u201cWhat if it is real?\u201d\nThe Monstrumologist is a very vivid and well-written gothic horror novel and I have never been more captivated by a book like this. It was creepy scary all right, but it was so good that I could not stop reading it even if it was in a dark and moving jeep (while everyone was telling scary stories). Despite my misgivings and initial hesitation, I actually ended up loving this book. To say it was well-written is an understatement. It was extremely well written. The story was basically being told in from the point of view of the older Will Henry recalling memories of those scary nights, there was excellent foreshadowing and it made me fear for what could happen to the story. I remember having to stop a couple of times to take a breather or to shudder and squirm at how gory some parts were. But it wasn\u2019t just pointless gore \u2014 the story was quite engaging as well. The characters were very fleshed out, and I especially loved the relationship between Will Henry and the doctor. It was strained, but also I think they were just having a hard time showing how important they were to one another. I especially liked the last scene in the book, and if you\u2019ve read it, I think you will also find it a bit heartwarming.\nI think The Monstrumologist would fare very well not just a book but also as a movie. I could clearly imagine the final chase scenes of the book as a motion picture. Like I said, I\u2019m not a fan of anything horror, but The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey may just have made my best of 2011 list. :) And it\u2019s so good that I am actually reading the next book in the series (but this is because I got semi-bullied into reading it :P).\nOne final anecdote: soon after I finished reading this book, the electricity at home went out. I found myself straining to hear the hiss of the Anthropophagus in the silence and total darkness of the night. If that is not an effect of a great novel, than I do not know what is. If you haven\u2019t read The Monstrumologist, well, snap to!\nRequired Reading \u2013 October\nPosted in: Reviews \\ Tagged: 2011, 5 stars, gothic, horror, Pellinore Warthrop, Required Reading, Rick Yancey, The Monstrumologist, Will Henry, YA\nBreathe by Cliff McNish\nMcArthur & Co, 232 pages\nJack is used to danger.

I know this doesn\u2019t make sense when it comes to my love for all things zombie. I like all the shambling, brain-moaning creatures, but when it comes to ghosts and other supernatural stuff? I cower under my covers. When I was a kid I used to like scaring myself silly by watching those Halloween specials that all local TV shows air during those times and no fail, I always end up being too scared to sleep for at least a week after watching those shows. I finally got to the point where I told myself to stop \u2014 no more scary TV shows, no more scary anything, especially if I will lose sleep over it!\nSo to be totally honest, I was kind of apprehensive with my Required Reading challenge for October, given my state of being a chicken. :P But of course, what is a challenge if you don\u2019t challenge yourself, right?\nThe thing that really got me to buy Breathe by Cliff McNish is the fact that the main character, Jack, has asthma. I\u2019m an asthmatic, too, so reading about characters who have the same condition brings me comfort because I could relate to them1. Jack\u2019s asthma attacks seem to be more dangerous than the ones I\u2019ve been having lately, though, bad enough to almost kill him. It doesn\u2019t help that his dad recently passed away. In an effort to stop him from stressing out or getting lonely, Jack and his mom moved out and into an old farmhouse, where they hope to find peace and quiet.\nBut instead of finding peace and quiet, they find something else. Little did they know that the farmhouse was haunted by four ghosts, all children, whose spirits can\u2019t seem to leave the house Jack finds that he has the ability to sense who had lived in the house before, and to the ghost children\u2019s surprise, he could actually see them. This makes Jack extremely curious to the point of triggering his asthma, but then he discovers that there is something more sinister living in the house, and only he has the power to save himself and his mother.\nLike I said, I\u2019m a big scaredy-cat, so I made it a point to read Breathe in broad daylight. The first few chapters of the book were creepy and the illustrations at the start of each chapter gave my imagination enough fuel to see practically the entire chapter. McNish\u2019s writing is very vivid \u2014 it was easy to slip into the world he created and actually see the house and the characters. I admit to being spooked for the first few chapters (but then again, it may be just because I\u2019m easily frightened), but I grew comfortable with it later on. Jack\u2019s asthma attacks were also very accurate \u2014 and also really scary, in the actual physical sense because I know I could also experience something like that. The extreme measures he and his mom had to go through just to make sure his lungs would behave is something akin to what my mom used to do when I was younger. I\u2019m really, really hoping my asthma won\u2019t escalate to anything similar.\nYou know now that I think about it, it\u2019s not really that scary. However, I think I can attribute that to the fact that the story is really quite linear. Somewhere early into the book, we already know who the real villain is, and a little bit of why. The other reasons and the story were gradually revealed, but by then it feels almost like a typical ghost story. While I\u2019d really rather not read ghost stories, I still want for a twist that will leave my mouth hanging open in the end, at least to thrill the reader in me.\nBreathe still manages to have a heart-warming moment somewhere in the end, which earns it more points for me. I liked how the Nightmare Realm (the place where spirits go when they don\u2019t go to the \u201clight\u201d) is described, and how one of the ghost kids finds some kind of peace there. The actual ending was wrapped nicely and I think it would leave readers with pretty much a good sense of completeness that stand-alone novels can give. (Except if you decide to nitpick, like me. But I can\u2019t offer another ending, so I should stop doing that :D)\nBreathe by Cliff McNish may not fare so much with people who really love ghost stories (or who take delight in being scared), but for a casual reader (or for someone who doesn\u2019t really like getting scared), it\u2019s a pretty good novel. The first aid lessons for an asthma attack are a plus, too. This is my first Cliff McNish, but I think it won\u2019t be my last. Now, are his other books scary, too?\nMy copy: paperback, bought from Bestsellers Galleria\nIf you want to know how it is to have an asthma attack, try breathing through a straw.

Here\u2019s a recap:\nThe Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the Olympians # 2) by Rick Riordan \u2013 One word: Tyson! :) I loved his character, and this book reminded me of how fun the first book was.\nThe Ask and the Answer (Chaos Walking # 2) by Patrick Ness \u2013 Ah, this book. I thought The Knife of Never Letting Go was more emotional, but this one was just as good. And intense! And dark! It has that Mockingjay vibe and it makes me wonder: if the second book was already intense, what more for the third?\nThe Piper\u2019s Son by Melina Marchetta \u2013 I wanted to give Tom Mackee a big hug, just like everyone else who\u2019s read this wants to. It\u2019s so nice to get back to reading these characters I loved in Saving Francesca.\nSo October. This means one thing: Halloween. And because of that, this means there is only one theme I can choose for this month: horror.\nI\u2019m not a fan of horror, and my friends can attest to that. I\u2019m a big scaredy-cat. Of course, that doesn\u2019t stop me from telling ghost stories sometimes\u2026but anyway. There was this time when I used to watch some local news program\u2019s Halloween special, and I always get terribly scared after that. :-s As in can\u2019t sleep with the lights off scared. And running back to bed from the bathroom when I need to pee in the middle of the night scared.\nBut sometimes it\u2019s fun to be deliciously scared\u2026 so I will dare to read horror stuff this month. Not as hardcore as my other friends, of course. :D\nI have a feeling I\u2019m going to regret this at some point during this month, though.\nBut on to the list!\nBreathe by Cliff McNish (yay for asthmatic characters!)\nThe Reapers are the Angels by Alden Bell (optional)\nI know the word \u201coptional\u201d defies the \u201crequired\u201d aspect of this challenge, but I am putting that there because I will also attempt to read the A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin this month, and have you seen how thick that book is? So I\u2019ll see if I can still squeeze in Alden Bell\u2019s book in my readings this month. :)\nPosted in: Challenges \\ Tagged: Alden Bell, Cliff McNish, Halloween, horror, Required Reading, Rick Yancey, YA",

        "raw_content": "Is the Criminal Dark Net Spreading in the UAE, as Thousands Download TOR?\nTOR stands for The Onion Router, a browser that lets you visit the Dark Net, while Chrome and Internet Explorer don\u2019t\nChloe Ayling was released because the gang that kidnapped her doesn\u2019t traffic mothers\nOn July 11, 2017, British model Chloe Ayling was drugged and abducted in Milan by human traffickers to be allegedly sold on the Dark Net as a sex slave in an Arab country. When the 20-year-old recently arrived in Milan \u201cfor a photo shoot\u201d, she didn\u2019t have the faintest clue that she had walked into a trap purportedly set by Dark Net criminals.\nDownloads of an Internet browser banned in the UAE might be connected to not only this abduction but many other unspeakable crimes. Sounds bizarre? In the underground of the Internet, bizarre is an understatement. We are talking about the Dark Net (or Dark Web), which is part of the Dark Web that experts believe is around 500 larger than the surface web we experience.\nA browser called TOR (The Onion Router) is used by people who visit the Dark Net to buy or sell drugs, child pornography, weapons, explosives, military manuals, counterfeit currency, false documents, hacking-for-hire services, and freelance assassins. Developed in the 1990s by the United States Naval Research Laboratory to protect U.S. intelligence communications online, the TOR has now become a means for criminals to operate on the Dark Net without being detected by authorities.\nWhy should people in the UAE be concerned about the Dark Net and its passageway TOR in this region? Here\u2019s why \u2013 statistics on the official website of TOR show that in Jan and Jun 2017, around 480,000 users from UAE were directly connected to the TOR network. That\u2019s a whopping 7% of the total internet using population in the UAE. While this figure reflects direct traffic, there might be many others who use TOR through a VPN.\nTOR can also be used for various harmless Deep Web sites such as reading clubs, dictionaries, and academic material, but the possibility of people in this region increasingly resorting to TOR to indulge in Dark Net activity cannot be ruled out. Mohamad Amin Hasbini, senior security researcher at Kaspersky Lab in Dubai, recently told the Khaleej Times that Tor browsers and the Deep Web provide ample opportunity to circumvent the UAE\u2019s Internet restrictions and even commit serious crimes in the country.\nThe recent TOR traffic from the UAE is extremely high compared to the TOR usage peak that most of the countries in the GCC have ever seen (In 2014). Even during their peak phase, Egypt and Saudi Arabia witnessed around 48,000 direct TOR users; this figure is 10 times lesser than what UAE recently witnessed. Here\u2019s a comparison of peak TOR traffic in the UAE with other countries in the GCC:\nIt is extremely difficult to track someone using a TOR, because it is part of a network that in simple words confuses tools tracking the destination of an Internet activity by making it look like it\u2019s happening at various places at a given point of time. For example, if a person uses a TOR in the UAE, and visits the Dark Net for an illegal purpose, it will be very difficult for investigating authorities to find his location. This is because TOR will make it look like the person is at various locations across the world within a short timeframe!\nPeople caught using Tor, VPNs or proxies illegally in the UAE could end up paying a fine up to 2 Million AED. A hefty fine isn\u2019t the only reason why you should stay away from TOR and the Dark Net. If you are found of indulging in banned Dark Net activities, you could face much more severe punishments such as prolonged imprisonment.\nIt is important for people to not only stay away from browsing the Dark Net, but also report incidents of people using the Dark Net. You can do so by calling 8002626, or visiting the nearest police station.\nNote: Country-wise TOR usage data is from the TOR Projects official website. Data pertaining to Oman is as in 2016, and data related to other countries as in 2014. All data pertains to the period when TOR usage was in the peak.",

        "title": "Open Fidelity \u00bb Terminology: monogamous, partner, infidelity",
        "raw_content": "Terminology: monogamous, partner, infidelity\nI am using the word \u2018monogamous\u2019 in this blog to mean \u2018having sex with only one person over a period of time\u2019. A person who is monogamous is someone who, over the course of, say, a year, has sex with only one person. I will usually mean \u2018sexually monogamous\u2019, that is, if someone has a romantic attachment to more than one person but has sex with only one, they are strictly speaking being monogamous. Of course there is plenty to discuss in all this, but this definition is where I am starting from.\nHelen Fisher, in Anatomy of Love: a Natural History of Monogamy Adultery and Divorce, defines the term differently, as \u2018having only one spouse\u2019 regardless of any short-term sexual relations with other people. This is more of an anthropological definition, used in discussions of forms of marriage in different cultures.\nI think the definition I am using is the more widely used one in general western culture, and so will make more sense to people. Besides, we need words that distinguish people who have sex with only one person from those who have sex with more than one person.\nI generally talk about partners in all my writing, rather than about husbands, wives, girlfriends or boyfriends, for two main reasons. Firstly, what I am talking about applies just as much to same-sex relationships as it does to relationships between men and women. And secondly, whether a couple is married or not is not usually relevant to the argument, as nowadays many couples live together (or even separately) without being married but the same issues surrounding monogamy still arise, just as they would if the couple were married. I am aware that \u2018partner\u2019 can mean \u2018business partner\u2019, but here it won\u2019t mean that.\nThe problem with the gender-neutral approach is that you can end up with lots of \u2018they\u2019s and confusion about who is being referred to. I don\u2019t think it is useful to use \u2018he or she\u2019 all the time, and grammatically I don\u2019t have a problem with using \u2018they\u2019 in the singular (it is very commonly used). If you talk about a husband and a wife, you can they say \u2018he did this, she said that\u2019 and it is clear, but with two partners, \u2018they did this and they did the other\u2019 is not. I will try to make it as clear as possible, sometimes by using examples with names when no other method works. Please add a comment if a particular sentence isn\u2019t clear to you, for this or any other reason.\nOne of the main arguments I will be making is that \u2018fidelity\u2019 shouldn\u2019t mean the same as \u2018monogamy\u2019. For the purposes of the next few posts, however, while discussing the status quo, I will use \u2018infidelity\u2019 to mean \u2018having sex with someone who isn\u2019t your partner without your partner\u2019s knowledge or permission\u2019. Someone who does this could be called a \u2018cheater\u2019 and their partner has been \u2018cheated on\u2019. These terms are not ideal but I choose to use them because they are generally understood.\n\u00ab Monogamy is difficult An experience of cheating \u00bb\n2 Responses to \u201cTerminology: monogamous, partner, infidelity\u201d\nnickbarnes, on January 26th, 2008 at 1:18 Said:\n\u201cInfidelity\u201d to me is concealing something from my partner, or doing something with the intention of concealing it from my partner.\nNothing particularly to do with sex, everything to do with honesty, openness, and communication. If it had specifically to do with sex, that would be \u201csexual infidelity\u201d.\nWas I unfaithful to my wife? Very occasionally, in trivial ways. Sexually? No.\nAnnaS, on January 27th, 2008 at 17:31 Said:\nI agree! The definition in this post is a temporary one, specifically for the subsequent few posts that talk about cheating, because I want to use terminology in a more conventional way to start with. Very soon I will be writing about redefining what fidelity means, so keep reading! (And commenting of course.)",

        "raw_content": "Topics/Keywords: #AlienAbductions #ComputerForums Page Views: 3408\nYou can&apos;t always trust strangers on the Internet.\nAnd then it started getting weird.\nWhenever you get a group of people together, there tends to be drama; and if anything this is exacerbated when the group is gathered in cyberspace. Not everyone is what he claims to be; not everyone sees him or herself as others do. Most people are honest, straightforward and savvy; but some people do have agendas, some lie, and many are gullible or, at least, na\u00efve.\nAnd cybergroups, such as the Abduction Support Group I started in 1992, on the CompuServe \"Encounters\" forum, are no different. In fact, possibly because of the nature of the subject at hand, some of the dramas were particularly wild.\nTo appreciate what I'm about to share, you need to understand how CompuServe forums were organized. Each was the equivalent of a modern Internet bulletin board or forum site such as PumpkinDriver.com or Writers.net. While the forums were hosted by CompuServe, they actually had owners; \"Encounters\" was originally owned by the TV production company responsible for the television show of the same name. It was divided into separate sections with names such as \"Ghosts\", \"UFOs\", and so on. Each section had a Section Head, a person who had the ability to edit and delete posts (not often exercised) and who, in the case of the \"Encounters\" forum, often acted as den mother to visitors who had sought it out because of some terrifying experience they'd had. There was also a SysOp (short for \"System Operator\") who managed the entire forum, and even one or two assistant SysOps at various times.\nAt one point an assistant SysOp was a fellow named Eric Fellowes* who had come to Encounters after I did. Eric identified himself to me as an abductee; and even though his abduction story was a little \"off\" on a detail or two, because of his position in the overall forum instead of challenging him we allowed him to join the Abductee Support Group (which, remember, was a \"closed section.\")\n*All names have been changed to protect the members' privacy.\nShortly afterward, we got a couple of other new members. One was Danny* and another was Sylvia*. Eric, Danny and Sylvia were often online at the same time and apparently lived in different parts of the country. Danny had the interesting career of hand-making custom-designed teddy bears in addition to his day job (actually, night job) as security guard at a Massachusetts electric power plant. Sylvia was a secretary somewhere in the Midwest, and Eric actually worked full-time as a CompuServe SysOp. (He handled several other forums in addition to Encounters.) He lived in North Carolina, not far from Nag's Head.\nI lived in New Hampshire but was working all across the country as a computer programming trainer, and when I got a class scheduled in Charleston, South Carolina, I decided that instead of flying I would drive. This would give me a chance to visit my kids in Virginia, my abductee friend Ann in Connecticut, my sometimes-boyfriend Ray in New Jersey, and\u2014I was really excited about this\u2014Eric in North Carolina. I rarely got to meet members of Encounters in person; besides, Eric had recently confessed to me he was gay and had posted a photo of himself. He was really cute, and I'd enjoyed the conversations we'd had online, so I thought, y'know, who knows\u2014maybe Eric would turn out to be \"the one\".\nI talked it over on the phone with my friend, Holly, another abductee I'd met in Encounters. She's very psychic, and I trusted her intuition. \"I don't really see that happening,\" she confessed when I admitted my crush on Eric's picture. \"But I think it will be an interesting visit.\" She wouldn't comment further. As I packed for my trip, some excitement hit Encounters. Danny, the teddy bear guy, had unexpectedly encountered an alien while at work! Even better, Danny'd had a Polaroid camera with him and gotten a photo. A second photo, he said, had been taken by an automatic camera when its motion detector was triggered. He posted them for us to see.\nWe should all have been excited. This was proof, right? Yet\u2014\nI've mentioned that abductees are psychic. One of the side-effects of that is that most of us can see auras.\nActually, one person in twelve can see auras anyway, without any special training or talents. Those people usually don't realize they can see anything that everyone cannot. The thing about auras is, they surround living creatures and can even be detected in photos. Yet, none of us saw an aura around the alleged alien in these pictures. To us, it looked like a plastic manikin.\nThe theory was proposed that the creature was wearing a skintight environmental suit; and perhaps it was. Perhaps such a suit, of alien origin, might even suppress or hide an aura.\nIn any case, the photos gave me something to think about as I drove southward from New Hampshire.\nJust before I left, I called Holly to let her know I'd be offline for a few days. I mentioned Danny, and she said, \"Oh, dear. Did you know he sent me a teddy bear?\"\n\"Really!\" I wasn't sure how to respond. \"As a gift?\"\n\"I guess,\" she replied. \"I wasn't expecting it. I got home, and here was this package on my doorstep from someone whose name I didn't recognize.\"\nI was confused. \"You mean, his name isn't Danny?\"\n\"It is, dear,\" Holly explained. \"But I'd never seen his last name and he didn't tell me he was sending a package so I didn't connect it with him. Besides, this was postmarked from North Carolina. My first thought was that it was a letter bomb. So I doused it with water and opened it outside the house with a stick.\"\n(Letter bombs were in the news a lot that year.)\n\"But it was just a homemade teddy bear,\" Holly continued. \"Except\u2026it's really homemade, if you know what I mean. I don't see how he could ever sell any of these.\"\n\"Oh.\" Danny now seemed like a really pitiful character, some poor shmuck who would fall for a woman he'd never met and send her a poorly-made teddy bear to try and impress her. \"But why was it mailed from North Carolina? I thought Danny lived in Massachusetts.\"\n\"I don't know,\" Holly admitted, making me promise to call again after I'd met Eric. \"I want to know everything, dear!\" We said goodbye and I set out on my way. Three days later, I was in North Carolina.\nEric had given driving instructions to a restaurant that was on the main road near his home. I arrived at the beachfront community just before six in the evening. I called Eric's number from the pay phone in front of the restaurant, expecting to get directions. Instead, he insisted on coming by in person. \"My house is really hard to find,\" he explained, adding, \"By the way, that picture of me I posted on Encounters? Well, I'm now a brunette and I've put on about five pounds.\" The photo he'd posted was supposedly from his modeling days; it showed a wiry blonde wearing Fruit of the Looms. \"Don't worry about it,\" I assured him. The moment he hung up, I called Holly and repeated the conversation to her.\n\"What a woman!\" she exclaimed. \"Keep me posted.\"\nEric, when he arrived\u2014he'd promised five minutes but had taken thirty\u2014might have been the guy in the photo, but if so it had been minus fifty pounds and plus a bottle of bleach ago. Still, we hugged and Eric announced I should follow him to his house. He started back to his car, then turned and said, \"Oh, I should mention\u2014I'm married. And I haven't, you know, told my wife about me being gay or anything.\"\nBy now, nothing Eric said could surprise me. \"No problem,\" I said, and got into my Toyota.\nEric's house was in a fairly new housing development in which most of the homes were still in a state of construction. Eric opened the door, saying, \"Don't mind the dog,\" just as I spotted his wife standing just within. She was several inches taller than Eric, had jet black hair, and I mean jet black, so black it had no highlights, brushed so severely that not one strand was out of place. Her eyes were also dark and penetrating, her skin pale, and she wore a severe black business suit and matte black shoes with stiletto heels.\nShe reminded me of Morticia Addams.\n\"This is my wife, Linda,\" Eric introduced. Linda tried to smile in greeting but the best she could manage was a grimace. \"It's nice to meet you,\" she said. For some reason I was mildly surprised she didn't have a thick German accent.\nThere was a dog, other than Eric's wife; a little yapping poodle who barked incessantly, hiding beneath an easy chair to do it. Eric kept telling the creature to shut up, but the dog ignored him. Finally Linda glared at the beast\u2014said nothing, just stared\u2014and the animal tore from the room in terror, its puffy tail between its legs.\n\"I'm sure you'll want to see where all the action is,\" Eric said. I wasn't sure I did, but I followed him to a spare room. It contained three desks and at least three full-sized computers and monitors, along with a couple of printers and a device I'd never seen before. Eric caught me looking at it. \"That's a flatbed scanner,\" he explained proudly, lifting the cover. There was a photograph, upside down, on the platen. I picked it up, turned it over, and was surprised to see it was the photo reproduced above, of the alien at the power plant.\n\"I recognize this,\" I said. \"Isn't this the Polaroid Danny took?\"\n\"Yeah,\" Eric agreed, after hesitating just a fraction of a second. \"He sent them to me to scan for him.\"\nBut Danny's the one who posted them, I thought. From Massachusetts. Three days ago. The morning after he took them, according to his story. My internal alarm bells were ringing, but I said nothing. Eric might have a perfectly sensible explanation; but I would have no way of knowing whether it was true or merely convincing.\nAt the conclusion of my visit, Eric and Linda invited me to spend the night. It was after 11 pm; but frankly being there gave me the creeps so I told them I had a lot of miles to make before morning. Eric walked me to my car, and embraced me in farewell. Then, suddenly, he planted his mouth on mine and tried to jam his tongue past my tonsils. I recoiled, and he apologized.\n\"I'm so sorry,\" he said. \"It's just been so long since I've been with a man.\"\nHaving met his wife, I wasn't so sure.\nSo I drove through the night, reached my destination, and taught the scheduled class without a hitch.\nA few months later, I was back in Manchester when Holly called me. \"Where were you last night?\" she asked.\n\"I had to finish an article by deadline. Why?\"\n\"Sylvia committed suicide while online!\"\n\"Wha-at?\"\n\"She said she couldn't take the abductions any more and she was going to kill herself. Then she just stopped typing.\"\n\"Holly,\" I said, pointing out the obvious, \"that's not really proof. Was anyone with her?\"\n\"No, she lived alone. But Eric called the police.\" About this point, I began to notice movement in the room. I was alone in my townhouse; the windows were closed. Yet something at the corner of my eye had shifted. I ignored it as being unimportant.\nHolly continued, explaining that Eric, Danny, Sylvia, a couple of others, and she had been chatting when Sylvia typed her intent to harm herself. Holly found herself doing most of the counseling work, urging Sylvia to seek guidance, to dial 911, that surely things would look brighter tomorrow. Sylvia said she'd already taken \"the pills\" and, indeed, her spelling and grammar were already beginning to suffer. Holly didn't know exactly where Sylvia lived or even her last name, so she couldn't call for help herself.\n\"Did you ask her?\"\n\"I did,\" Holly assured me. \"But she wouldn't say.\"\n\"But Eric knows where she lives,\" I pointed out. \"He has access to everyone's registration records. Did he call for help?\" The movements, flickering about the room, were maddening. Something would move just beyond my range of vision, but when I turned to see what it was, there'd be nothing out of place.\nI've had this experience before\u2014I think everyone has\u2014but never to this extreme.\n\"There are some kind of light-bending effects going on around me,\" Holly suddenly announced. \"It's driving me crazy.\"\n\"Light bending?\" I asked. \"You mean, like something moving just beyond your sight?\"\n\"Yes! Are you getting that, too?\"\n\"I am,\" I agreed. \"Could it be some kind of alien manifestation?\" But neither of us could answer that, so we returned to the topic at hand. And, suddenly, the image popped into my head of Danny's alien photograph on Eric's desk. \"Eric, Danny and Sylvia are usually online at the same time, aren't they?\"\nHolly thought. \"Yes, usually. I think. Of course, so are you and I.\"\n\"That's true,\" I admitted. \"But\u2026I have a weird hunch. Just hang on a moment. I'm going to switch to my office phone.\" I put her on hold, ran upstairs and picked up the extension. \"Now give me a moment to log in.\"\n\"You're logging in to CompuServe?\" she asked.\n\"Right. There's a record of each member's last log in. As leader of the Support Group, I can look at it. I want to see where Sylvia lives.\"\n\"But you can't get to that record,\" Holly protested. The flickering had gone upstairs with me, like a thousand invisible butterflies fluttering around my head.\n\"True, but I can look up which CompuServe location she dialed in to,\" I explained. \"By area code and exchange. Most people dial local numbers, so that'll at least narrow it down.\" As I waited for my own connection, I added, \"I'm pretty sure she once said she lived in Ohio.\" When the whistle-and-whine of the modem had stopped, I typed in the command and read the CompuServe number she'd last connected through. Sure enough, the call had been made the previous evening. I grabbed my phone book and turned to the area code map.\n\"This flickering around me is insane!\" Holly declared. \"Nothing is moving, but it's like the air is jumping!\"\n\"Wow,\" I said. \"Same here, but listen to this. Sylvia's area code isn't in Ohio at all. You'll never guess where she lives\u2014or, at least, connected through.\"\nI took a deep breath for dramatic effect. \"North Carolina.\" I checked another entry, then another. \"The same exchange, in fact, that Eric dialed. And\u2026the same as Danny!\"\n\"All three of them live in North Carolina?\"\n\"Did I mention to you,\" I said, \"that Eric has three computers in his house?\"\nThere was a lengthy pause on the line, as the air fluttered and danced around me.\n\"But Eric called the police,\" Holly reminded me.\n\"And you know that because\u2026?\"\nI could hear Holly sigh over the phone. \"Because Eric said he did. Eric is Sylvia,\" she whispered in realization. \"And Danny.\"\nThe flickering suddenly stopped. The air returned to normal.\n\"Hey, that light-bending has stopped!\" Holly declared.\n\"For me, too,\" I told her. \"What do you suppose it means?\"\n\"I don't know,\" she said. \"But I think we've just discovered something very significant about the Encounters forum.\"\n\"You mean like we have some weird guy for our SysOp?\"\n\"Remember, the CIA infiltrated CUFON until there were no civilians left in it,\" Holly reminded me. The story was a classic among UFO buffs. The non-CIA folk had started a new organization, MUFON, which I suspected had itself become infiltrated with someone whose job it was to prevent real abduction information from being taken seriously.\n\"You think Eric's in the CIA?\" I challenged. \"I think he's too weird to be in the CIA.\"\n\"I'm not saying anything. Just keep an open mind.\"\nI tried to do that. \"There's those photos of the alien that 'Danny' is supposed to have taken. If there is no Danny, Eric must have taken them. But why would he try to hide where they came from?\" There was a pause, then I answered my own question. \"What if they're faked?\" I asked. \"If everyone got excited about them and they were proven to be fakes\u2026would that make any of us doubt our experiences?\"\n\"Probably not, dear,\" Holly guessed. \"But it might make others doubt our experiences. More than they already do, I mean.\"\n\"You know, it's weird,\" I said, \"but every since I saw Danny's photo in Eric's computer room, neither he nor 'Danny' has said anything about it. Like would happen if it had failed its purpose.\"\n\"So now, the only mystery is, what was that flickering we experienced?\"\nThat mystery remained unsolved for several years, until I read The Celestine Prophecy. In it, author James Redfield explained that, when we are trying to solve a tough but important problem, one whose solution will impact us for the rest of our lives, \"soul fragments\" of our greater selves will gather to give us additional\u2014well, call it \"energy\" to help us derive the optimal solution. He explained further that these soul fragments appear as \"flickering\" in the air.\nI have no idea how different my life, or Holly's, might have been if we hadn't figured out Eric's scam. But after saying goodbye to Holly, I immediately called Eric. Without directly accusing him of anything, I merely pointed out that I had looked up his, Danny's, and Sylvia's connection records for the previous evening, and that he himself had shown me his several computers. \"A person with several phone lines could easily pretend to be several different people at once with a setup like that,\" I remarked. \"I thought you should know\u2026that I know.\"\nNothing more was ever said of Sylvia; Danny never made another appearance, and the alien photos were quietly removed from the downloads section.\nFortunately, I had kept copies.",

        "raw_content": "I'm writing this Christmas afternoon from the downstairs family room of the steady's parents' home on the Lake of the Woods in northeastern Indiana (near the towns of Hudson and Ashley). We are in the midst of a mid-day rest before more family arrives in a few hours for dinner and gift-opening.\nLike last year, it's been an ecumenical Christmas. Last night, we went to the 11 p.m. cantata at the First United Methodist Church in Auburn, IN. And, this morning, we went to the 9 a.m. Mass at Saint Mary of the Angels, a tiny Catholic church a short drive \"just down the road.\"\nPerhaps many people will remember Christmas 2012 in association with the awful tragedy that occurred earlier this month in Newtown, Connecticut. I pray that the people of Newtown, especially the loved ones of the adults and children who were killed, are someday able to again regain peace of heart and mind.\n\"May your Presence, Prince of Peace,\nthe poor with care and prosperity,\nthe despairing with hope and confidence,\nthe grieving with comfort and gladness,\nthe oppressed with freedom and deliverance,\nthe suffering with solace and relief.\"\nThe image above is \"Adoration of the Shepherds\" created in 1831-1832 by Johann Michael Wittmer (1802-1880). It is the property of the Bavarian State Picture Collections in Munich, Germany.\nFor many Catholics, Mary, the mother of Jesus, will be on the brain frequently during the next five days.\nToday (December 8), Catholics observe the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception. On this day, we recall that God was preparing Mary to be the mother of Jesus even from her own creation in the womb. It's a reminder to us that God is preparing us for great things, too.\nOn Wednesday (December 12), the Church celebrates the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe -- the appearance of Mary in 1531 in Mexico to Saint Juan Diego. Long one of the great days of the year for the Church in Mexico, this feast is now widely observed in the United States as well.\nIn all of human history, few (if any) individuals have been more frequently depicted in paintings and sculpture than Mary. And, after working in Catholic publishing for nearly six years, I've seen many of these renderings. But, this photo of a sculpture of Mary and child did recently catch my eye:\nI love the statue's simplicity and the way it fits so easily into this modern chapel in southern California.\nThe statue is a fine representation of the Church's understanding that Mary's role is bring Jesus forward. It aligns well with the Orthodox and Eastern title of Mary: Theotokos or \"God-bearer.\"\nThis photo is by Sister Rose Pacatte, FSP.\nFlashback: \"Bookends\"",

        "raw_content": "This is the most bizarre presidential election that I\u2019ve seen since coming to this country in 1978 and probably the most bizarre in anybody\u2019s living memory. Evidence for declining wellbeing of the American population has been piling up for years (as I exhaustively review in the just-published Ages of Discord) and one would think that the election would be about how to reverse this deplorable state of things. Instead, all you read in the press is how one candidate made vulgar comments about women in 2005 and the other tried to discredit women who accused her husband of sexual misconduct decades ago.\nThere is a Russian saying, \u201cwhen Elites Can\u2019t and People Don\u2019t Want to\u201d, which is a contraction of a recurrent theme in Vladimir Lenin\u2019s writings about the necessary conditions for a revolution.\nLenin speaking to revolutionary masses (source)\nThe full quote goes something like this: for revolution to happen, it\u2019s not enough that people don\u2019t want to live as before; it\u2019s also necessary that the rulers can\u2019t rule in the old way (for the Russian version see here). This idea, in fact, is also a central one in the Structural-Demographic Theory (which is not surprising as SDT integrates major ideas of Malthus, Marx, and Weber).\nThis observation is of direct relevance to the 2016 elections. One on hand, popular discontent, resulting from declining well-being, has propelled an anti-establishment candidate, Donald Trump, to the point where he has a real chance of becoming our next president. On the other hand, we see an unprecedented (at least, since the nineteenth century) fragmentation of the political elites. The Democrats are split between an establishment candidate (Clinton) and a surging populist from the left (Sanders). The Republicans are even in a worse shape, with three factions: the Republican establishment, the Tea Party, and populism from the right.\nAre we, then, on a brink of revolution? Lenin (probably) would say \u201cno\u201d. After all \u201cwhen Elites Can\u2019t and People Don\u2019t Want to\u201d are necessary, but not sufficient conditions. There is no organized revolutionary party, armed with a radical ideology, that could mobilize the masses and overthrow the old regime. So we still have time to figure out how to get out of this mess without piling up lots of dead bodies, which is the most common way in which structural-demographic crises are resolved.\nin the 21st century an organized revolutionary party might not be possible or required.\n100+ years is a long time so comparison with Russian revolution is not apt.\nTsarist Russian state differs from the 21st century state in many ways including two very important ones: it did not have an intelligence agency or 24hr mass media.\nmove forward to the revolutions that overthrew communism in Eastern Europe and we get a bit closer to America. the communist bloc allowed no opposition parties. they had massive intelligence services that set a strict state political ideology and a controlled media which kept reminding people of it \u2013 although this media was really significant, it was not 24hr mass media that had become reliant on social media (e.g. statements, leaks, press releases, videos posted to the internet).\ncompared to the Eastern European countries prior to their revolutions then: America is the same because there are no rival political parties to the establishment, has a massive intelligence service (FBI, CIA, Homeland Secuity) that sets the ruling ideology (especially the third one), and a supercharged mass media which constantly reinforces the message.\ncharacteristic of the 1989 revolutions was the speed of contagion between the different Eastern European countries (regimes falling like dominos). this shows that despite the immense power and threat of the state instutions, once a critical mass of individuals (usually elites) had committed it was easily done.\nthese weren\u2019t peasant revolutions and this critical mass of individuals was in no case a political party.\nPoland forced reforms required because of the threat of striking workers. Hungary elites made reforms in an attempt to solve an economic crisis. In Czechslovakia the revolutions were student lead and influenced by elites who decided to reform. Romania had some mass demonstrations and then essentially had a military coup.\nif you look at what these revolutionies did \u2013 and they were different people in all the states \u2013 and did not do you would get an idea how a successful revolution would take place in US.\nthe people did not actually expend a lot of energy enaged in violence, taking over a palace or legislature building, or the intelligence services headquarters etc. the place of most importance was the state media buildings which were responsible for reinforcing the political ideology. in US this would be Fox News, CNN etc.\nIn 1989 these institutions in some cases may have been directly taken over but usually were circumvented (by foreign \u2013 western \u2013 media and early forms of grass roots media) or forced to report on highly symbolic acts or demonstrations that sent out a message contrary to the political ideology (Brandenburg Gate classic example of this, but other events like strikes, and the removal of the Austrian-Hungarian fence and many other events important).\nonce the constant stream of political ideology was challenged and broken the elites within the state, the existing state could be taken down by relatively few elites working within the system with little bloodshed.\nrevolution in America would likewise involve elites within the system changing the message. given the influence of social media, and how the mass media is so reliant on grass roots media for content, this process might happen even quicker than it did in Eastern Europe. Within the space of a month or a week.\nEdward, the US is a massive place; much more massive than any of the little Eastern European countries that were toppled relatively bloodlessly. And with major cultural differences across regions. Plus, in all cases, there was support by the military there. The idea of the military being involved in a coup in the US is rather frightening, but luckily, I believe we are still far from that.\nSecondly, I\u2019m not sure why you would want that in any case. If the current status quo is taken down by revolution, the revolutionaries are most likely to be bigoted, racist authoritarian populist right-wing Trumpists. There\u2019s a reason why African-Americans backed in overwhelming numbers the most status quo candidate (Hillary) in both the Democratic primaries and general election. That isn\u2019t because everything is peaches and roses for them right now, but because they are probably among the most clear-eyed voters in the American political landscape. They are but a couple generations removed from discriminatory Jim Crow laws, being denied the right to vote, and lynchings, so understand how bad it can get if you upset the status quo (with the Greatest Generation now in their 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s and dying off now, most American whites have forgotten that).\na military coup in the US is very welcome if it means stopping deranged elites starting nuclear World War III over Syria.\nThe word \u201cracist\u201d is used a lot in American politics but from the outside the reluctance of American elites to discriminate between who they bomb from 50,000 feet is a much worse crime and one that is happening today.\nSomething needs to be done to stop them messing about with the world, specifically the Middle East, which is having ramifications in Europe. If I was American I would never vote for Clinton who is partly responsible for the current situation.\nYour characterization of Trump is very Punch & Judy so here\u2019s Punch.\nMass arrests need to be made (starting with the Clintons) to clean up the corrupt American establishment, protect America\u2019s democracy and stop the nuclear war they appear determined to start over Syria.\nEdward: Mass arrests are what tin-pot dictators in banana republics do. They would definitely undermine liberal democracy. Your call for them actually reveals more about you than it does anything else.\nI also get the feeling that you and/or family have never experienced living in an authoritarian state. I wonder if you\u2019d be so glib about mass arrests if you had.\nIn any case, how exactly is the US starting nuclear war over Syria?\nAnd you do realize that it\u2019s the Russians who are indiscriminately bombing Syria right now, not the US, right?\nEric Stromquist October 11, 2016 at 3:15 pm\nNot that I want to get in the middle of an argument that is pretty far from Cliodynamics, but \u2026\nThe worry would be this. During the cold war direct military conflict between the US and USSR was very unlikely because both sides knew that most scenarios could rapidly escalate to a nuclear exchange. But now, neither our nor the Russians activities in the Middle East are of primary or existential importance to either country, so direct military conflict would not be thought important enough or likely to lead to a nuclear exchange.\nBut that\u2019s the risk, because it makes such direct conflict thinkable and therefore much more likely to begin. The problem is that once a shooting war between the US and Russia begins, even if it is a small one, there is a very large risk of initially-unplanned escalation, perhaps even, in the end, to the unthinkable nuclear level.\nlet\u2019s reintroduce some Cliodynamics.\nUK and US differ in one very interesting way: a massive number American citizens have dramatically lost, or fear they are about to lose, their social status, one that UK citizens never had. that is, they\u2019ve lost, or about to lose, their status as an American citizen, which use to be something that made them proud and something that entailed power.\nWhat do I mean by that? The traditional American political ideology:\nyou live in the land of the free\nwe are all equal under god\nyour speech is free\nmen are allowed guns\nHow many of those things are true or not underattack from the state today? Consider homeland security; escalating inequality (most opportunity is for illegal immigrants); political correctness (guilt tripping white Americans); attempts to restrict gun ownership.\nAmerican elites are taking away the high status Americans (especially middle class Americans) once had and turning them into Brits, or worse.\nIn Cliodynamics a maxim of the elite crisis stage is surplus elites are more likely to fight when they have status to lose than when they never had it to begin with. The same thing I believe applies to American citizens who have traditionally had a very high status and standard of living compared to the rest of the world. Cliodynamic says they won\u2019t let it go without a fight.\nEdward, do you only read American right-wing propaganda sites to get your info on America?\nOnly those in the right-wing information bubble would believe that the right to own guns is under attack in the US. And most opportunity is for illegal immigrants? WTF?\nOne thing you don\u2019t seem to understand about the US is that race is as big a deal as class is in the UK. Look at the periods of peak discord in the US. All of them involved race. The main contention of the Civil War was the fight over the right to enslave black people, The biggest outbreaks of violence in that peak of discord around 1920 were race riots (mostly whites burning down black neighborhoods) and lynchings (in case you didn\u2019t know what that means, it means a mob of white people hunting down and murdering black people like animals; in some cases because a black family ran a business better and were an economic threat). In the late \u201960\u2019s, the riots were mostly in black neighborhoods where black mobs faced off against almost all white police.\nIf there is a populist revolt, it will be by working class whites, and minorities would be the ones who suffer the most. Not elites. Why do you think that African-Americans, who are poorer and more working-class than average, support Democrats in overwhelming numbers? Because they understand America, which you don\u2019t seem to.\nGiven all that, why exactly do you think a populist revolt a good idea?\nEdward October 12, 2016 at 11:09 am\nI disagree. There won\u2019t be a populist revolt. America\u2019s crisis is a crisis of the elites not the people.\nThese elites respond to broad populist sentiment (such as that reflecting the traditional American political ideology which elites have sought to change) and may act because of it, but there won\u2019t be a populist revolt. If you examine so-called \u201cpopulist\u201d ideas they are highly sophisticated and actually originate from elites not grass-roots Clive Bundy type yokals.\nA populist revolt is impossible in practical terms. The introduction of large intelligence services and mass media in the 20th century changed everything. The main reason is there is nothing for the people to revolt against because the power is not concentrated in the executive but spread across the ruling class.\nThe people can\u2019t \u201cstorm a bastille\u201d or Parliament and take power. They are too weak \u2013 even in America in where people have guns. Power can realistically only be transferred among the existing, competing, powerholders.\nThis is why in Eastern Europe the revolutions were elite reforms rather than violent uprisings. As I said in my first post the situation in America is more like the situation in Eastern Europe in the late 1980s than Russia before the revolution.\nThe key take-home point is the idea of surplus elites.\nTraditional American political ideology\nwas incredibly successful creating wealth and new powerful families, in addition to previous power-holders.\nNow part of the elite class has sough to end that political ideology to claim more power for themselves. The music stops. There are only so many seats.\nEdward, I keep repeating, but it doesn\u2019t seem to sink in:\nYou seem to have a distorted view of what is \u201ctraditional American ideology\u201d.\nHopefully, this article will enlighten you:\nhttp://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/10/19/13288594/new-silent-majority\nThe Clinton coalition is based on a shared belief in the virtues of multiculturalism and tolerance and includes minorities as well as whites who are 3 of the 4: college-educated, young, secular, and female.\nThe Trump base is composed of whites who are 3 of the 4: working-class, old, religious, male.\nThe composition of the US population has changed a lot in recent decades, with the younger generations more multicultural (less white), more college-educated, and more secular.\nWhich is why the McGovern coalition of minorities and young professional (secular) whites got thumped in 1972 but the Hillary coalition of minorities and female/secular/young/professional whites will win in 2016.\nIf you are a minority or a woman or gay or Jewish or secular, the \u201cGood Old Days\u201d weren\u2019t terribly good. You don\u2019t care much about gun rights. If you\u2019re secular, you\u2019re glad that God is exiting the public sphere and there\u2019s more freedom of speech now. And for all those groups, there is more freedom and opportunity than ever before. Blacks sure didn\u2019t feel more free when they were being denied voting rights and being lynched (minorities of all types certainly don\u2019t think there was more opportunity back when there was more racial discrimination against them). Women certainly don\u2019t think they had more opportunity when sexism was more rampant in the workplace, Jews certainly don\u2019t think there was more opportunity back when the Ivy League had a Jewish quota and they were denied entry in to the white-shoe law firms. Gays certainly don\u2019t think they were more free back when they were persecuted for their sexual orientation.\nYou are disputing what should be American political ideology or what was once American political ideology?\nThe point is that if there WAS an ideology that was generally established for a couple hundred years and then in the space of a few decades a couple of administrations blunder in and change everything you are going to cause a heap of confusion.\nPure utopianism that you can announce a change to a long established political ideology that you consider to be better and expect everyone overnight to agree with it. Demand everyone agrees with it and the utopianism becomes like velvet fist in a iron glove, or something like that.\n\u201cMulticulturalism\u201d, and the virtues of same, doesn\u2019t strike me as a topic well covered by cliodynamics\u2026at least in the books I\u2019ve read.\nThere is the notion of a culture solidifying due to an external threat (the Russian or colonial American model), but a breakup due to mass movement of populations seems to be a hole in these theories. Whether it\u2019s mass immigration from Latin America or the Middle East, or the likely huge problem presented by the population explosion in sub-Saharan Africa, the First World will find itself under more, not less, stress due to diversity in culture.\nIn the short term, the obvious answer will be increasing top-down design of government systems as explicit rules and enforcement replace cultural norms. In the long run, I\u2019d expect a fissioning of states.\nThat ideology you are described did not exist for hundreds of years and was held to by only a subset of the population.\nAnd the new ideology isn\u2019t one that just I consider better, but one that women, minorities, gays, Jews & other non-Christians\u2013that is to say, THE MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN POPULATION\u2013considers better. Ultimately, the question is: Do you believe in democracy or not?\nEric Stromquist October 10, 2016 at 11:07 am\nIt seems that there are two groups in the US which might have potential interest in a revolution, although to say so seems extreme. The first consists of the working class whites who are the backbone of Donald Trump\u2019s support. The second consists roughly of Black Lives Matter and supporters.\nThese two groups are totally opposed to each other. The BLM supporters are a literally a minority group. If working-class whites are in fact a strong political force, they merely need to win the election to gain power, which is possible but is not a revolution outside the system. Nor is there an elite contingent that would support a working-class white revolution, since it seems that nearly all elites support the status quo liberal-progressive movement.\nI suppose more militant socialist group than Bernie Sanders could arise, but support for Sanders seemed to seemed relatively opportunistic on the part of Millennials as opposed to being ideologically committed, and today\u2019s conservative working-class whites seem very disinclined to socialism.\nSo it seems sufficient conditions are far from being in place, just as Prof. Turchin says. I suppose there is risk if Trump loses \u2013 or if Trump wins and his promises to improve the situation of working-class whites appear to be foiled by the establishment \u2013 then a more radical populist working-class white movement may arise four or eight years from now.\nAs \u201clook on the bright side\u201d columns go, this one is pretty dark. But, probably correct. As great as the dissatisfaction (of the masses) and incompetence (of the elites) is, most people aren\u2019t ready for violence.\nHowever, it doesn\u2019t require that most people be ready for violence. It only requires that, say, 1% of them are suicidally ready for violence, and the elites are incompetent to stop that. I could easily see the incidence of \u201crampage killers\u201d increasing until it becomes, not just a headline-grabbing news story, but a genuine threat to society. Normal society requires that the vast majority, almost 100%, want to live peacefully side by side, most of the time (even the criminals most of the time want this).\nThe fellow in Austin, Texas, where I live, who threw rocks off an overpass onto the interstate, killing a few people, until he was caught, was not a revolutionary. He was, however, indicative of a problem: too many people without an interest in keeping society functional, who turn to random violence. I don\u2019t think we have enough of such people to cause a breakdown, yet. But we could be headed in that direction, not from organized insurrection, but just random psychosis from too many people, and an elite that don\u2019t know how to stop it. But hopefully not.\nJust bought your new book yesterday, by the way. Looking forward to it!\nThere won\u2019t be a nationalized grassroots revolution across the whole of the US. The reason for that is because a big chunk of the US (the suburban white-collar middle-class), while not doing great in recent decades, have a big deal to lose in a revolution. Furthermore, yes, the BLM people won\u2019t ever align with the Trumpists. That should not be overlooked. The Nazis were able to seize power (note that they never had the majority of votes in any election) because the Stalin-controlled Communists and Social Democrats in Germany never united (because Stalin wanted to destroy the Social Democrats). Times aren\u2019t so desperate yet that the radical left would break with the center-left and allow Trumpists to seize power.\nSo there are only 2 ways to discord:\n1. A more clever and disciplined Trump gets elected. It\u2019s almost a blessing that Trump is so ignorant, lacks self-discipline, and is misogynistic. Someone with his authoritarian bent, disregard for the rules of a liberal democracy, and bigotry would be dangerous if they were smart and disciplined enough (and didn\u2019t alienate many women) to win (and Trump was not that far away). I can certainly see a smarter more-disciplined version of Trump cause constitutional crisis where the military and police have to choose between obeying their commander-in-chief or breaking laws and norms (putting minorities in concentration camps, for instance).\nThe US splits asunder (like Civil War times).\nWe can see a major disparity in terms of the percentage of the white vote that Obama got in 2012:\nhttp://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/11/10/1159759/-Percent-of-White-vote-won-by-Obama-2012-by-state:\nLess than 20% of white in the Deep South states of MS, AL, LA, GA, and SC (and well as UT, where GOP nominee Romney was the favorite son) and OK voted for Obama. A big change from 2012 is that large numbers of college-educated (conservative) whites (especially women) are abandoning Trump, so GA may change. I really want to see the breakdown after the 2016 polling is finished.\nBut we may see calls for revolution and secession from the inner South (MS, AL, LA, TN, KY) and possibly even TX and OK.\nAnd structural demographic crisis may yet be resolved without resorting to major bloodshed.\nAfter all, the situation in the US was as bad as now at the end of the first Gilded Age, yet, as stated in a comment on the previous post:\n1. Busting up of big national monopolies/companies and championing of regional/local interests/businesses was started by the trust-buster Teddy Roosevelt at the start of the 20th century. That may lead to more sort-term inefficiency but more long-term societal health and vitality:\nImmigration was halted in the \u201920\u2019s (which allowed assimilation to rebuild asabiya). WWII also helped in that regard.\nRedistributive policies and strengthening of unions was done in the \u201930\u2019s.\nEven with a paroxysm of violence around 1920, it wasn\u2019t as bad as the Civil War or the French/Russian/Chinese revolutions.\nWe\u2019ll see how Hillary governs, but I believe she is favorable to the first and third. And (external) war may yet come.\nBusting up of big national monopolies/companies and championing of regional/local interests/businesses was started by the trust-buster Teddy Roosevelt at the start of the 20th century. That may lead to more short-term inefficiency but more long-term societal health and vitality:\n(better formatting)\nThough I just thought of this: Our social welfare state is dependent on young immigrant workers to support (generally ungrateful leeching conservative) elders in order to function properly.\nThat is a problem if immigration is curtailed.\nWho, in turn, pays for those immigrants as they age?\nIn the final analysis, you have two choices.\n1) A stable population that is rich enough to support a high average age as improvements in medicine/diet/etc. occur (up to natural limits of course).\n2) An ever growing population buoying up an ever growing population of seniors. That eventually leads to a die-off, or an expanding ball of human flesh growing at the speed of light. Compound interest is serious stuff.\n(there\u2019s always choice \u20180\u2019, a lowering of the limits of old age).\nI suppose there\u2019s choice 2.5, a replacement population who lowers it\u2019s birthrate over time and then holds the territory. Everything else being equal, populations with higher birthrates end up holding the globe if boundaries don\u2019t exist.\nNichol:\nPopulations with high birthrates become populations with low birthrates once the women in those populations get even a little education.\nThailand\u2019s fertility rate dropped from 6.15 in 1960 to 2.11 in 1990 (replacement level) to 1.44 in 2010.\nIran\u2019s fertility rate dropped from 6.93 in 1960 to 2.19 in 2000 (it\u2019s 1.90 in 2010).\nAnd I believe in choice 3: Enough productive automation to support a ton of nonproductive old people. We are still several decades away from that, however. In the meanwhile, it\u2019s a working population that is increasingly non-white supporting a growing population of unproductive often-ungrateful mostly white seniors.\nLoren Petrich October 12, 2016 at 1:03 am\nDonald Trump\u2019s candidacy is something like what happened to the Democratic Party in the late 1960\u2019s and early 1970\u2019s, when the New Left got involved it, competing with organized labor. Neither side liked the other very much, and that split doomed George McGovern\u2019s 1972 Presidential candidacy. The New Left considered organized labor a bunch of Cold War Establishment fuddy-duddies, and labor-union leaders considered the New Left a bunch of amateurish upstarts. AFL-CIO leader George Meany once grumbled about how some party delegation included 6 open homosexuals and only 3 AFL-CIO people.\nGeorge McGovern wasn\u2019t a vulgar narcissist like Donald Trump, however. Though in retrospect, that was the beginning of an era of political strife.\nMore recently, Bill Clinton\u2019s Presidency provoked remarkably bitter hostility from the Right. Though he was a mushy centrist, right-wingers acted as if he was a left-wing ogre. They even departed from their most cherished principles to do so. When BC proposed funding 100,000 police officers, the Right turned anti-cop. When BC fired some White House travel agents, the Right forgot all about its belief in the absolute sovereignty of employers over workplaces, its opposition to wasteful government spending, and how coddled government employees are. In the Paula Jones case, the Right forgot about its pooh-poohing of the issue of sexual harassment. About BC\u2019s wars, the Right opposed them, taking a position that they had long vehemently opposed as everything from dangerous naivete to outright treason.\nBarack Obama has governed much like Bill Clinton, but the Right has also hated him as a left-wing ogre. One who was born in some other nation \u2014 birtherism. Obamacare was something proposed by the right-wing Heritage Foundation in 1988, by a Republican Senator as an alternative to Clintoncare in 1993, and by Republican Governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney in 2006 (\u201cRomneycare\u201d). Mitt Romney even recommended it to Barack Obama in a USA Today op-ed. But as Obamacare progressed, the Right developed a raging hate-on for it as an alleged government takeover of the healthcare business.\nIn both BC\u2019s and BO\u2019s presidencies, the Right\u2019s hostility extended to shutting down the Federal Government.\nIt\u2019s worth considering that the political boundaries are shifting to new axes. The 20th C was largely fought over concepts of national economics, perhaps the 21st will concern other matters.\nMy guess is that people just \u2018know\u2019 what side they\u2019re on in all of this and simply slap a patina of logic atop to justify their actions (or web pontificating). Defining the sides will be interesting.\nLots of good articles by Lee Drutman about this.\nIn the Fifth Party System from the New Deal to the Great Society (1932-1968 or so), the battle lines were drawn along economic grounds. In the Sixth Party system, since the GOP was tired of losing, started using race as a political tool. In the 7th Party System (starting about now), identity will be the main dividing line, with the Democrats united by a belief in tolerance and diversity (and democracy, I predict) and the Republicans united by a belief in white nationalism (and autocracy, I predict). In that sense, US politics will be going back to the 19th century. Specifically, the period between the Civil War and the Great Depression, when politics meant identity politics to all sides. Not surprising that the Second Gilded Age produces Gilded Age political divisions again.\nJohn Taylor October 12, 2016 at 1:55 am\nI doubt that there will be a revolution against the elites at least not yet.\nTwo factors are worth thinking about. One is that the elite have set up a number of conflict points that can be used at will to divert conflict. If you look at history when elites are under pressure they divert attention by going to war against the\u201denemy\u201d. The major enemies that are being pushed are\n1 Race war\u2026blacks are taught to hate whites\n2 Religious wars\u2013the western elite are both importing lots of Mohammedans and at the same time picturing Mohammedans as barbarians and creating war in Muslim countries\n3 Russia is being set up as the evil empire, Putin as an antichrist and to save the world americans need to have a nuclear war with evil.\nThe other factor is that all revolutions need lots of money. When battling against the state you need either assistance from alternative internal powerful elites or outside elites. The russian revolution was not just caused by ww1 and the weakening of the Romanovs but also by massive funding by the German secret service , American money looking for resources and the Schiffs & co. looking for revenge.\nAt the moment in the USA there is not the organising principle or money power to create the revolution. More likely there will be a series of wars of distraction. This will also solve the problem for the state of excess debt that can not be repaid and promises that can not be met.\nT.S. October 14, 2016 at 10:08 am\nYou overlook that people are well on to this \u201cwar of distraction\u201d tactic. The public is far beyond ordinary war fatigue. If any of these scenarios go down, there will be no rallying the public, and the establishment elite will not fare well in the process. I do not believe you can get the large electorate for Trump behind anything Clinton would do. Even in the face of an external \u201ccommon\u201d enemy, I am sure they would prefer to bunker down locally and in small community factions before they would rally as \u2018her nation.\u2019 They are simply too inoculated against her boilerplate manipulations.\nAnd besides, these \u201cenemies\u201d watching this are not dumb. They realize there is a huge base of support they can cleave away from a Clinton presidency, whom they don\u2019t have to fight, and can win the respect of by embarrassing and otherwise resisting her schemes. It\u2019s past time to admit that their strategy has been a disaster for US and world, and any more of it would make for a very weak and vulnerable \u201cruler.\u201d\nTelling that you put \u201cenemies\u201d in quotes. Personally, yes, I do consider those who try to undermine American liberal democracy enemies.\nThere are far, far worse disasters than our current state of being*. That\u2019s what you\u2019d learn from reading history.\nGranted, our current lot could improve. As I stated, 1. busting up of big national monopolies/companies and championing of regional/local interests/businesses, 2. halting immigration (allowing assimilation to rebuild asabiya), and redistributive policies and 3. strengthening of unions would do the trick. Ironically (from your perspective, as you oppose her), Clinton would do more on 1 & 3, and while Trump may halt immigration, he\u2019d destroy asabiya with his inciting of bigoted white nationalists against everyone else.\nWhy do you think halting immigration would improve asabiya? Just look who\u2019s signing up for the Army.\nChris Kavanagh October 12, 2016 at 9:10 pm\nThis seems like a post that better describes the political context of a few months ago and doesn\u2019t take account of the recent precipitous drop in Trump\u2019s support or the fact that Sanders has for months been strongly endorsing Clinton. Presently according to pretty much all polling Trump has almost no \u201creal chance of becoming our next president\u201d. Moreover, rather than disintegrating it looks like the Democratic party may on the back of the Trump implosion be set to gain a majority in the Senate and establish a liberal majority in the supreme court. It is still the case that there is a lot of popular dissatisfaction with Clinton and that the concerns of Bernie supporters\u2019 have not gone away\u2026 but it seems likely that such sentiment will be weakened if the democrats sweep the presidency and gain control of the senate.\nThis doesn\u2019t take away from the longer term trends that fit the pattern described but it does seem that in the short term the crisis is fading, at least for the Democrats.\nThe problem is that post-election, the Trumpists will still be around (possibly aided and abetted by foreign powers) along with their disregard for liberal democracy. Do not be surprised to see several Branch Davidian-type conflagrations or Oklahoma City-type bombings in the future.\nThe Oklahoma City bombing can essentially be summerised with the term \u201cfalse flag\u201d but the facts are too complex to discuss here.\nThe point is your prediction is not a scientific one at all and comes from an establishment perspective, which is biased. There have been \u201cBranch Davidian-type conflagrations or Oklahoma City-type bombings\u201d in the past so sure, why couldn\u2019t there be some like it in the future? If one happened tomorrow would that really prove that there is a Trumpist people in conflict with the liberal state?\nAre \u201cBranch Davidian-type conflagrations or Oklahoma City-type bombings\u201d really going to characterise elite instability? I would say the elite conflict can also manifest in other ways: such as mass arrests of corrupt establishment officials, and the character assassination of potential political rivals on increasingly arbitrary grounds making fewer and fewer people electable.\nThat would remove some of the surplus elites. However, demographic-structural theory would tell us that these solutions would not necessarily solve the problem, which is structural. There would be new elite conflicts coming up to replace the old ones.\nIf correct that the problem in America is primarily a elite conflict between elites one might predict that ordinary Americans would largely be untouched by what is going on, and their situation might not be any worse off. It would be more of the same.\nThis idea is completely contrary to the popular imagination of impending social catacylsm of the people vs the state.\nI\u2019m totally skeptical of this. The mass media is a huge part of the structure of modern society and to the great extent it projects out the establishment\u2019s feelings it makes it difficult to tell what is really going on (as the perspective of the establishment is not neutral).\nThe fact Trump is a candidate at all shows that his support for him exists within the US establishment. He is not a phenomenon of the people. In fact, he\u2019s their boss.\nAt this point this seems pointless, but I\u2019ll try anyway:\nMy prediction is grounded in history: every time there has been social discord in the US, the hoi polloi have turned against each other (usually on racial grounds) and common folks have died (during the Civil War period, around 1920, and in the late 1960\u2019s). Only in the first instance (the Civil War) did a lot of elites die as well.\nWhat is your prediction that ordinary Americans would be untouched grounded in?\nOther times in history in other parts of the world such as First Intermediate Period Egypt when the common people actually flourished compared to previous times and it was only the elites that felt a period of disruption.\nWhat I want to know is why if you agree there are so many elites and they are all arguing and the US military is the most massively funded in all of history and the US government, according to Hillary Clinton, has 17 professional intelligence services, including a Homeland Security and militarized police force*, why you are worried about rednecks with pea-shooters storming capitol hill?\n*https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz1NJ3fhso0\nThe racial divide in US today I believe is exaggerated and principally an effect of the elite conflict. It is a top down, not a bottom up lead phenomenon that will diminish as soon as the elites sort themselves out. Rich people don\u2019t worry about division of spoils among races because they\u2019re rich; poor people won\u2019t worry about division of spoils among races, or among any other type of group, when there is a good economy.\nPerhaps the elite oversupply doesn\u2019t gin up the controversy, but merely takes advantage of it.\nTrump strikes me as a man who ran out in front of a mob and has done well in nudging it. Good, especially good ad hoc, speaking skills are no joke and can take you quite a distance.\nIn short, a social fission can be bottom-up and then taken over as a top-down piece of machinery. As Trump fades, and he probably will, that mob is still out there. I suppose you can think of the \u2018mob\u2019 as simply another tribe in a US increasingly built from self-interested groups, sometimes ethnically based, sometimes not. This particular one is built from what might be considered the remnants of the traditional US population, but there\u2019s nothing in physics that says they have to remain dominant.\nIndeed Edward,\nI think Nichol has it right and you have it backwards. The social fission is there. An over-abundance of elites just takes advantage of it.\nSo you again seem to misunderstand me: I am not the one who is afraid of rednecks storming the capital. In fact, I\u2019m the one saying that\u2019s impossible, despite your grand fantasies. I\u2019m afraid of the hoi polloi turning on each other, which is what has happened in the past in the US. Only when there is major bloodletting of the common folks is there also turning of the elites against each other.\nAnd drawing from ancient Egyptian history is laughable when current Americans share much more culturally with recent Americans than they do with ancient Egyptians.\nThe so-called \u201cremnants of the traditional US population\u201d who support Trump number well over 100 million people and cut across all social classes and cultures. However, the core voting group will be Americans of European ancestry. Rednecks, white middle class families, new age crystal healers, top establishment officials who oppose Neocons, business leaders marginalized by DC cronyism \u2013 they are all voting Trump. That\u2019s quite a line-up. You can think of it as a \u2018mob\u2019 if you like but they are more likely to reinvent the failing system than smash everything up (that they, and their ancestors, have helped build).\nEdward, you say \u201cwhite middle class families\u201d support Trump, but the reality is that Trump is losing the college-educated white vote (http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/09/15/educational-divide-in-vote-preferences-on-track-to-be-wider-than-in-recent-elections/). First time the GOP has lost that demographic in generations.\nTrump is also losing the married women vote (which the GOP usually wins): http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/10/marriage-after-trump/504440/\nRight now, your Trump mob is mostly a combination of elder/non-college-educated/male whites.\nedwardturner November 7, 2016 at 5:15 am\nPhrases like \u201cyour Trump mob\u201d and your link to the apparent educational divide in voting preferences suggest that you believe the Clinton vote represents the intentions of wealthy intelligent people and the Trump vote the intentions of poor stupid people. This merely reinforces an unhelpful sense of superority and entitlement to power.\nOne cannot imagine the viewpoint from the other side, when the other side are just the wrong kind of people.\nI don\u2019t doubt that Trump supporters are taken in total are less wealthy and less intelligent but that doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t good, and it doesn\u2019t mean they do not deserve power.\nLike a racing car set-up with a lot of oversteer will struggle to keep a straight line, intelligence and possessions make it harder for an individual to keep to the straight path. We live in a world where intelligence can and is often recruited to fool oneself and others that one\u2019s selfish interests are for the best of everyone else. These deceptions take the form of religious and scientific beliefs and political ideologies.\nSo to find the good do look to the clever and the rich.\nThat is not to say clever and wealthy people cannot be good. When they are they deserve a lot of credit because it is extremely difficult. I would only espouse the virtues of this group of people with great care.\n\u201d That\u2019s quite a line-up. You can think of it as a \u2018mob\u2019 \u201d\nI\u2019m referring to it as a mob (and one of which I am likely a member) because it seems to still be searching for a core belief system and (probably more importantly) which beliefs to agree to disagree on. I don\u2019t doubt that any merging group, if it achieves any kind of power, has to be filled with compromise and internal contradiction.\nI was thinking about the existential threat to the West presented by mass immigration, and was considering an experiment with measurable results\u2026.\nIt seems to me that a good first order approximation of assimilation is accent. You can speak essentially the same language, but the closeness of group affiliation can be expressed as how language and pronunciation evolve separately. We have a new opportunity to do that due to the work in speech recognition (Siri, Echo, etc.) and I don\u2019t doubt that changes can be measured over time. Given the near universal wiretaps afforded by the modern surveillance state, I wonder if some sociologist at the NSA has built this experiment.\nAs an aside, I think that one of the great ironies of modern times is that one of the strongest (maybe \u2018the\u2019 strongest) current state religions and source of assabiyah appears to be the religion of diversity.\nMaybe it\u2019s just a passing fad, but the ability of something built out of apartness to cause social adhesion is rather a mystery to me. Perhaps what we are seeing is a second order kind of group glue made out of electronic communications. It\u2019s easier to feel kinship to the foreign when you never deal with them in person but purely as an abstract concept or words on a screen.\nInteresting but I would disagree that the \u201creligion of diversity\u201d is a religion. Likewise the \u201creligion of global warming\u201d is not a religion. These are moral credentials that have propagated because they arbirarily whittle down some of the vast numbers of potential political elite from positions of power.\nIn this time period of history, the mass media is the principal way that the public gets to learn about elites and they can exert massive control over peoples\u2019 moral evaluation of them. Virtue signalling is the cynical display by elites of moral credentials for selfish reasons.\nNot all elites who display the correct moral credentials are virtue signallers. There are legitimate scientific and philosophical discussions.\nVirtue signalling occurs when these imporant moral and scientific debates are over-simplified (the scientific debate is over! Trump wants to build a wall so he must be a facist!) and used to promote cynical political ends, especially ones that benefit the rich at the expense of the poor, and promote a dangerous strain of \u201cglobal nationalism\u201d.",

        "raw_content": "Why We're Really Screwed\nJoint statement on overpopulation by 58 of the world's scientific academies.\nOverpopulation was one of the first environmental problems that gripped me as a kid. I've largely given up hope that we'll do anything about it in time, especially since it's now politically incorrect to even mention it.\nOut-Of-Control Cops:\nJeff Overcash, Ft. Lauderdale PD Edition\nHere's Ft. Lauderdale PD policeman Jeff Overcash arresting Brennan Hamilton for asking for his badge number.\nIf Hamilton has a defense fund, I suggest that everybody contributes. This Overcash needs to lose his badge and never get it back.\nKooks Among Us: Loony Benediction Edition\nWow, check out this whack job.\nBest part: asking forgiveness on behalf of others for \"worshiping the intellectual mind.\"\nWelcome To The Police State: The U. Maryland Beating\nNow it's officially a cover-up.\nThis guy should start a legal defense fund. I'd contribute.\nMore Fishy Sophistry About Religion and Secularism\n[Sorry, wrote in haste, accidentally re-reading an old Fish thing and conflating it with this new piece. This new one seems to be largely reporting on Habermas's views...though apparently also endorsing them...and much of what Habermas seems to be saying here is on the psychological side rather than the logical/philosophical side. As for whether anything about religion can help explain the rationality of non-self-interested action, or secure the logical foundations of science: no. As for whether it might have some kind of psychological effect on us in some way...well, maybe...but who cares?]\nProps to Stanley Fish for actually talking about philosophy in a public forum. He's not especially good at it, but it's still great to see some philosophy rather than no philosophy going on in a popular publication.\nSadly, when philosophy does get public attention, it's usually bad...and this is no exception.\nFish here makes the same mistake he made in the last column I commented on (you can look it up if you want...I'm too lazy). No time and no patience to dive into the details now, but the general form of Fish's argument is:\nPosition 1 faces a bunch of problems!\nSo you should instead accept position 2!\n\"Secularism\" faces a certain type of problem\nSo religious views are superior in this regard\nProblem is, of course: such arguments can't work unless the latter such views either (a) do not face the problem in question or (b) have resources that make it easier for them to solve the problem in question.\nHowever, religion has no such resources. It faces all the same problems that Fish's so-called \"secularism\" faces, and it has no resources that mitigate the problems.\n(Note: except, perhaps, if he really just means to be talking about psychology. Mere psychological claims are woven throughout this piece, so I'm a little unsure to what extent he's interested in those.)\n(a) Non-religious views do, in fact, have a problem rationally defending the logical (broadly construed) foundations of science; religious views have exactly the same problem, and no resources that make the problem easier to solve.\n(b) Non-religious view do, in fact, have a problem making sense of obligations that are not merely prudential; religious views have exactly the same problem, and no resources that make it any easier to solve. (And, note: making sense of prudential \"obligations\" is no walk in the park...)\nGod never helps solve philosophical problems (unless some of the weirder stuff in Kant's second Critique turns out to be right...). Take the problem of non-prudential, moral obligations. Even if God exists, we still face the whole range of moral questions--What acts are right? What makes right acts right? Why be moral, and so on. And nothing God can do can help. If the Divine Command Theory were true, then he could help--but the DCT is false. God simply saying that x is right cannot make x right--cannot constitute the rightness of x.\nGod might, of course, infallibly send bad people to hell...that would help in a way...but only if you think that moral obligations are grounded in prudence. So that doesn't help make sense of moral obligations conceived of as non-prudential obligations; it just makes the mistake of conflating the moral with the prudential. Be bad and pay the price. And, of course, we can do something similar without God around--we can make people pay for their transgressions.\nAll these matters deserve more space than this, but there's the gist of it.\n[h/t Lewis Carroll]\nWelcome To The Police State:\nPhotographing Rogue Cops Edition\nThis kind of **** has been burning me up for a long time. Since when did it become illegal to photograph cops? Apparently, the state of Maryland thinks it's even illegal to accidentally photograph rogue cops in the act of using excessive force.\nJMU Springfest Riot\nWell, it's not yet completely clear what happened, but here's the report at HburgNews.\nLots of these people were not JMU students, but most were. It's likely that there was a bad element in the crowd, probably a fairly small one. It's likely that there was a slightly larger group of kids who would have been fine if they hadn't been drunk...but of course they were drunk. Conventional wisdom even among some of the more reasonable students I've known is that many Harrisonburg police tend to be...well, let's just say not very nice to students. Add to this that a substantial percentage of JMU students are spoiled brats, and, well, honestly, not all that bright. Add way too much booze and...voila! A riot!\nNot much of one by, say, the standards of the U. of Maryland...but a riot nonetheless. And on the so-called \"Choices\" weekend, when kids who have been offered admission next year are visiting the school.\nJMU's tailspin into abject mediocrity continues apace.\nEarthworms Communicate, Travel in Herds\nNobody's Ever Wrong\nThey Just Don't Communicate Well\nWell, as you know, nobody's ever wrong anymore, etc.\nHere's something about how the Vatican's big problem is a lack of a \"communication strategy.\"\nSee, the problem isn't that priests have been raping children. Oh no. The problem is that they haven't \"communicated\" their \"message\" about it effectively.\nIt's the bullshittification of everything, I tell ya.\nDid Bush and Cheney Know that Some Guantanamo Detainees Were Innocent?\nI very much hope that this is false.\nIf it is true, then Bush and Cheney would have to go to prison. I am in no way sure that the country could survive that.\nThe Infamous Ads\nO.k., so the ads that show up on the blog don't pay me any cash until the total runs up to $100. You guys have been complaining about 'em--I rarely see 'em, because I only view the blog through blogger when I write it or moderate comments.\nAnyway, I've left 'em up out of laziness, but now I'm wondering: is it o.k. to leave 'em up until I get my (measly) hundred bucks, or are they so objectionable that I really ought to take 'em down right now. Or are they so objectionable that I should take them down now specifically because it would be bad to wait on such a thing for the purpose of making money--that is, is leaving them up selling a little part of my soul or something?\nThe house renovation is going rather badly, so, believe it or not, 100 bucks sound pretty good to me right about now, but not good enough to sell even a fraction of my soul.\nSo I'm soliciting advice.\ndook \"Wins\" the Championship\nMore like a coronation, really. I mean, does it count if you are obviously given a cupcake bracket that you don't deserve and barely beat a five seed in the final game?\nWinning it straight up is one thing, but man, that whole spectacle was just painful to watch.\nVery interesting, at ScienceNews.\nAre Occupations The #1 Cause of Terrorism?\nHere's an additional reason to think it's interesting: there is some evidence from cognitive science that people are often bad at determining why they believe things. (As with so much stuff from that sector, the experiments generally show something rather limited, but they're advertised as showing something sweeping and enormous. But there still seems to be something to some of them, at least.) It's fairly common, and fairly natural, to look to the writings of terrorists, and to their own explanations of their motives (fervor for global jihad, or whatever) when we try to explain their beliefs and actions. But the right place to look might be social scientific (God help us) explanations. If there really is an extremely high correlation between terrorism and occupation, then, if we want to minimize terrorism, that's the source to attack. It may very well be that occupations are so dehumanizing that it's the one thing--or one of relatively few things--that can actually anger people so much that they're willing to commit suicide attacks. And it may be that terrorists themselves are not clear about why it is that they're willing to do what they do. (Though occupations are apparently sometimes explicitly cited by terrorists, and sometimes, apparently, falsely.)\nMore BS About Brains Morality from Neuroscientists\nWell, there's this ridiculousness.\nBack when I was in grad school, psychological conclusions about morality (or that impinged upon philosophy at all) were an endless source of amusement and outrage. Where philosophically interesting claims were at issue, you could usually rely on psychology to produce some sketchy experimental data, and then to draw the most absurd conclusions from it.\nI mean, philosophers get used to scientists confidently saying that philosophy is silly...and then going on to say silly things about philosophy. (Philosophers also say all sorts of silly things, and all sorts of silly things about science. But that's a different story for a different time.)\nAlso back in grad school, neuroscience started to get trendy in philosophy. Many philosophers thought that neuroscience would finally provide the empirical results we needed to throw some light on philosophical problems. That is, that neuroscience would succeed where psychology per se had failed.\nAlas, much of what we got was more ridiculous BS.\nI have to say, it's fairly painful to encounter the smirking neuroscience groupies--who are all over the web (their blogs seemingly invariably festooned with pictures of them laughing impishly...) gushing over every new alleged success of neuroscience, glibly and uncritically reporting on philosophically-relevant conclusions. But the stuff you get still, as often as not, is a morass of confusions about the very philosophical issues they are purporting to illuminate.\nFirst, we get a report telling us that scientists have discovered that we can \"change moral judgments\" by putting magnets to humans' brains! ZOMFG!!!!11 We can make people think differently just by screwing with their brains?!?!?!?\nEr...this counts as an astonishing discovery?\nSecond, it turns out that...well...what we can really do is inhibit people's ability to understand other people's motives. That is, we can inhibit an ability to form a certain type of hypothesis about purely factual matters by messing with the brain.\nNow realize:\n(a) Again, we have known for a very, very long time that it is possible to change the way people think by altering their brains. We've known about the consequences of head trauma for...well, a very, very long time.\n(b) Even if the researcher's claims about what they did are correct (something we always have to be a bit skeptical about), it has nothing to do with morality or moral judgment directly or per se. What they did is inhibit people's ability to discern each other's motives. Of course we make moral judgments partially on the basis of beliefs about motives, but that's not really relevant here. We also make moral judgments on the basis of actual actions. But just because we can inhibit people's ability to tell what other people are doing by blindfolding them (that is. messing with their eyes), this does not show that moral judgments are made in the eyeballs, nor is it true in any interesting sense that we can change moral judgments by altering eyeballs, nor that morality is nothing more than electrical activity in the eyeballs.\nThird, and most importantly, note the suggestion here of a pervasive fallacy in neuroscience. Goes like this: we found a brain center that is necessary for x, therefore x is unreal/lacks rational authority/is \"nothing more than\" a brain process.\nRepeat after me: to find that something depends on part of the brain does not show that that thing is unreal/BS/lacking in cognitive authority/etc.. Believe me, there are parts of the brain that are necessary for reasoning. There are parts of the brain that are necessary to do mathematics. There are parts of the brain that are necessary for the recognition of physical objects. There are parts of the brain that are necessary for doing science. But finding them will not mean that math, nor science, nor physical objects are \"nothing more than\" brain processes.\nNo one would be tempted to accept such a lame argument unless they already thought that the subject in question was BS. The typical, unreflective attitude of many such scientists is that morality lacks rational authority--it's just made up, or fully and merely emotional (where emotions are taken to be rationally arbitrary). They won't be tempted to to assert that science is \"just\" a brain process, no matter what they discover in the brain.\nThat it is the brain that enables us to do what we do is no surprise. The brain gives us the capacities that generate both good and bad ways of thinking, both valid and invalid reasonings, beliefs about both what is real and what is fake. Merely finding that some part of the brain is associated with some type of thought does nothing that I can see to show that such thought is bogus, or second-rate, or whatever.\nIn fact, one might reasonably argue that, since the relevant part of the brain is also associated with out-of-body experiences (something asserted in the Metafilter paragraph), this gives reason to think that there is something objective about morality, as it (like out-of-body experiences) has to do with seeing ourselves from an external, impersonal or third-person perspective. (In fact, that's a fairly interesting suggestion there...though a suggestion is all that it is.)\nPhilosophy is weird, frustrating...and possibly entirely (and certainly largely) BS, I'll admit. But scientists are generally better at what they do if they know a little of it--especially if they're going to make pronouncements about propositions that impinge on things philosophers have been thinking about with some care for thousands of years.\n(Note: this was written in even greater than usual haste.)\nWhy dook Is Objectively Loathsome\n\"Anybody But Duke,\" by Andrew Sharp. Read it! Even I didn't know some of this stuff--e.g. that Krzyzewski screamed the following at William Avery's mom during a game: \"Your son is going to f@#$ my program.\"\nHere's a news flash, K-rat: your program is already @#$%ed, and winning won't change that.\nSo go Mountaineers! Defeat the forces of evil.\n(h/t Mark K)\nPeople Who Know Nothing About Philosophy\nTalking About Philosophy\nSome Guy Freddie Edition\nMan, there's nothing I love more than some guy who knows nothing about philosophy talking about philosophy as if he knows about it. Man, that is so awesome. And getting a link to Andrew Sullivan for it, to boot! He seems to be responding to that guy Sam Harris, one of the new pop atheists, who also doesn't seem to know much. I mean, I think everybody should want to talk about philosophy, and so, of course, I don't expect everybody who talks about it to have a degree in philosophy.\nBut these guys, they act as if they're breaking new ground when they're really having an undergraduate-ish discussion about the matter. See, there's about 2500 years of fairly interesting thought about these matters. You're not breaking new ground. You're not even really part of the discussion.\nHere's a hint: anyone who suggests that you read Barbara Herrnstein-Smith, just navigate away. BHS is not a serious thinker, and her amateur pronouncements about philosophy are laughably laughable.\nI'm not even going to go to the trouble of refuting this dude's points.

For most small business, it\u2019s just not cost-effective to have your own internal IT staff. In that case, you\u2019ll most likely have to rely on an outside company to provide IT support. It\u2019s important that you work with a company that is both committed to you as a customer, and is capable of learning your systems and processes. Otherwise everytime you need help you\u2019ll waste time and resources \u201cstarting over\u201d. Our approach is to become a partner with our customers. We negotiate a flexible contract that allows us to be committed to you, and to invest time and energy into learning and documenting your systems. It\u2019s the next-best-thing to having your own internal IT staff. In fact \u2013 it might even be better! Website Development For example, we built this one. Whether you\u2019re looking for something fairly simple (like this site), or whether you need a full-blown eCommerce site, we can help. We have designers and developers that can help you get the look and feel that you want, and the functionality you need in order to be effective. Software Development There is commercial off-the-shelf software available for almost any need. However, if you have a unique business, or a unique workflow, or the software for your industry is simply bloated and ugly and hard to use, then custom software development might be your answer. Most of our recent software development work has been around improving business processes by building new data collection and analysis tools. However, we have experience in inventory control systems, eCommerce, customer resource management systems and more. Data Analysis Odds are your business is generating tons of data. Your website generates user statistics. Your marketing campaigns generate both financial and sales data. Your manufacturing systems generate data. Your quality management systems generate data. If you can leverage the data from these systems, you\u2019ll be able to make better business decisions. If you can integrate the data from these systems and get a company-wide view of your data, it can transform your business. Project Management It\u2019s pretty intuitive that projects that are properly managed go better. In fact, do some research into the biggest reasons why projects fail. What you\u2019ll find is that poor project management is one of the top reasons. Why should you consider bringing in an outsourced project manager? 1. If you\u2019re working on a complicated, multi-vendor project, it can be incredibly useful to have somebody outside of those vendors who is responsible for looking at the big picture and managing the project as a whole. If you don\u2018t have the expertise in both the subject matter and in project management, then maybe we should chat. 2. If you\u2019re working on an internal project but you don\u2019t really have an in-house resource with the organizational sway or skillset required to managed the project through to completion, an outsourced resource can help. There\u2019s something powerful about bringing in a resource and giving them the authority to get things done. You don\u2019t have staff in-fighting over \u201cwhy did he get to be in charge\u201d. The authority is usually pretty quickly accepted and you can move on with the project. 3. Things are crazy busy, timelines are tight, budgets are tight \u2013 these can all sound like good reasons not to bring in a project manager. Think about it this way \u2013 when resources are limited, can you afford to waste precious resources by having a poorly-managed project?\n810 Walnut St, Coshocton, OH 43812\ninternet error Conesville, Ohio\ninternet explorer cannot open internet site error message\nI think this maybe a windows add on.

        "title": "Acceptable Music in Worship | Prattville Church of Christ",
        "raw_content": "Acceptable Music in Worship\nThere are many individuals who think that the churches of Christ do not have music in our periods of worship to God. However, that is a misconception. We do in fact have music always in our homage to the Heavenly Father. In fact, this writer has never attended a worship period wherein there was no music. But, you must understand that the word \u2018music\u2019 is generic in usage. The specifics of music are \u2018instrumental\u2019 and \u2018vocal.\u2019 Vocal music is an integrated part of acceptable worship. In Hebrews 13:15, we read, \u201cThrough him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.\u201d\nAlso, the general populace would be greatly surprised to learn that the churches of Christ use an instrument in their worship to God. This, of course, will be rather difficult to believe since those individuals who have visited our assemblies have never seen an instrument with the visible eye. The New Testament clearly demands that an instrument be used in the praising of God in our songs. If this is not done, such will not be acceptable to God. Christians who desire to please God have no choice in this matter. They must use an instrument in church music. In short, the New Testament requires the usage of the instrument, and, the specific instrument is mentioned in the Word of God.\nBut, let us observe that the word \u201csing\u201d in the New Testament comes from the Greek word \u201cpsallo,\u201d which basically means to \u201ctwang,\u201d \u201ctwitch\u201d and \u201ctouch the strings.\u201d In the Old Testament, David would \u201cpsallo\u201d on the harp. However, when we come to the New Testament, a different instrument is required and even specified. Please turn to the book of Ephesians, chapter 5, verses 18 and 19 and let us read together: \u201cAnd be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody [psallein, i.e., to twang, twitch, touch the string, metaphorically speaking] in your heart to the Lord.\u201d\nThe requirement to baptize a person can be used as an illustration in this matter. The word \u201cbaptize\u201d is not a translation but rather a transliteration. That is, the word \u201cbaptize\u201d is from a Greek word \u201cbaptizo,\u201d which means to dip, plunge or submerge. Thus, the actual translation of \u201cbaptizo\u201d would be \u201cimmerse.\u201d But into what substance should one be baptized? Through a study of the Scriptures, we learn that it is water (See Matthew 3:16; John 3:23; Acts 8:36). In a parallel situation, we are required to sing (psallo) and make melody (psallein), but, upon what instrument? Paul, guided by the Holy Spirit, answers that question when he wrote: \u201c\u2026singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord\u201d (Ephesians 5:19). There is no uncertainty about it; the heart is the God-made and God-given instrument to be used in praising him in our songs.\nChristians who follow this teaching relative to acceptable music in worship are not on the defensive. Rather, those churches that use mechanical instruments of music in their worship must prove by the Holy Scriptures the authority to do so. They must defend their usage of the instrument in their assemblies. The burden of proof is on their shoulders.\nHave you ever wondered why, when you come to the New Testament, that you never read about the first century church using mechanical instruments in singing praises to God? It is interesting to note of the nine (9) times music is mentioned in the books of the New Testament, Matthew through Jude, that it is always in the specific, that is, to sing. Let us now read the passages of Scriptures in the New Testament wherein this is the case.\n1. Matthew 26:30: \u201cAnd when they had sung a hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives.\u201d\n2. Acts 16:25: \u201cAnd at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and sang praises\u2026\u201d\n3. Romans 15:9: \u201c\u2026I will praise unto thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.\u201d\n4. Hebrews 2:12: \u201cI will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I sing praise.\u201d\n5. 1 Corinthians 14:15: \u201cI will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the understanding also.\u201d\n6. Ephesians 5:18, 19: \u201cBe not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be ye filled with the Spirit, speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.\u201d\n7. Colossians 3:16: \u201cLet the word of Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts unto God.\u201d\n8. Hebrews 13:15: \u201cThrough Him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips, which make confession to His name.\u201d\n9. James 5:13: \u201cIs any cheerful? Let him sing praise.\u201d\nWhen the King James Version was translated (1611) and the American Standard Version some years later (1901), one hundred forty-eight Hebrew and Greek scholars were used in these works. Each time that these scholars came to the word \u201cpsallo\u201d and its derivatives, they translated it into the English word \u201csing.\u201d Therefore, when one reads the New Testament, he can have full confidence in knowing that when he sings in worship to God, he is doing exactly what the Holy Scriptures authorize.\nYou might also be interested in knowing that the early church did not in fact use an instrument such as an organ in their song service, at least for the first six hundred years. \u201cPope Vitalian is related to have first introduce organs into some of the churches in Western Europe about 670; but the earliest trustworthy account is that of one sent as a present by the Greek Emperor Constantine Copronymus to Pepin, king of Franks in 755\u201d (American Encyclopedia 12: 688). \u201cThe organ is said to have been introduced into church music by Pope Vitalian in 666 A.D\u201d (Chambers Encyclopedia 7: 112). Either way, one can readily see that the use of instrumental music did not originate with the first century church. The introduction of such caused division among members of the Roman Catholic Church and was discarded until about the first part of the fourteenth century. Along with other digressive practices, the use of instrumental music caused a major schism between the Roman Catholic and the Greek Catholic churches (1311). The Greek Catholic Church rejected the use of the instrument, along with the selling of indulgences, the authority of the pope, etc.\nLater, the great reformer, Martin Luther, rejected the use of the organ. He said, \u201cThe organ in the worship of God is an ensign of Baal.\u201d John Calvin said of the organ in worship, \u201cIt is no more suitable than the burning of incense, the lighting of tapers or revival of the other shadows of the Law. The Roman Catholics borrowed it from the Jews.\u201d When John Wesley was asked about the use of the organ, he replied, \u201cI have no objection to the organ in our chapels provided it is neither heard or seen\u201d Charles H. Spurgeon, when asked why he did not use the organ in worship, gave 1 Corinthians 14:15 as his answer: \u201cI would as soon pray to God with machinery as to sing to God with machinery.\u201d Adam Clark said, \u201c\u2026And I further believe that the use of such instruments of music, in the Christian Church, is without the sanction and against the will of God; that they are subversive of the spirit of true devotion, and that they are sinful\u2026Music, as a science, I esteem and admire: but instruments of music in the house of God I abominate and abhor. This is the abuse of music; and here I register my protest against all such corruptions in the worship of the Author of Christianity\u201d (\u201cAmos 6:5.\u201d Clarke\u2019s Commentary).\nSome will say that God did not say, \u201cThou shalt not use instrumental music in worship.\u201d Probably this argument is presented more than any other. But let us notice the final conclusion of this reasoning if it is permissible. God did not say, \u201cThou shalt not use cornbread and buttermilk in the Lord\u2019s Supper.\u201d But we do use unleavened bread and the fruit of the vine (Matthew 26:26-28). Why? Simply because that is what Jesus used. Neither did the Lord say, \u201cThou shalt not use images and burn incense in worship.\u201d But in our understanding of the teaching of the New Testament, such would be wrong. We must understand that when God gives a positive command, such would exclude all else. For example, God commanded Noah to use gopher wood in the building of the ark (Genesis 6:14). That requirement excluded the use of any other kinds of woods like pine, maple, cedar, etc. It is like when you send a child to the store with the instructions to purchase a loaf of white bread. You need not tell him not to buy beans, milk, etc. We understand the principle of a positive command. It excluded all else when given to do a specific thing. And, the New Testament informs us in a positive manner what the Lord requires of us in worship regarding the type of music he desires. This should be sufficient. We could not carry the book around in a train boxcar with all the \u201cthou shalt nots\u201d if God had given us one. In the Old Testament, we learn that the priests were to be taken from the tribe of Levi. However, when we come to Jesus Christ, we learn that he was from the tribe of Judah. Please note what is written in Hebrew 7:14, \u201cFor it is evident that our Lord hath sprung out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priests.\u201dIn other words, Jesus could not be a priest even if he came back to earth because he was not from the tribe of Levi. Also, it is worthy to observe that while a positive directive was given regarding from which tribe (Levi) the priests should come, it is not found in the writings of Moses where God said, \u201cthou shalt not select priests from the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, Dan, etc.\u201d When God said that the priest should come from the tribe of Levi, that excluded men who belonged to the other tribes in Israel.\nAnother argument is: \u201cYou have mechanical instruments in your home.\u201d That is true. Much enjoyment can come from good music played upon such instruments. We must understand that a moral law governs the home while a scriptural law governs the worship. There are some things that are morally right in the home that would be unscriptural in the worship of the church. For instance, the eating of a common meal is peculiar to the home life but would be out of place as an avenue of worship to God. Also, one could enjoy singing wholesome secular songs in the homes but singing the same in the worship would be wrong.\nThere will be harps in heaven\u201d another contends, \u201cso why not in the worship?\u201d Here are some passages normally used to support this argument: Revelation 5:8: \u201cAnd when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.\u201d Let us make the observation that the book of Revelation is a highly symbolic book. Notice that the \u201cgolden vials full of odours\u201d were not literal bowls but were symbolic of the prayers of the saints. By the same token, could we not understand that the harps were not literal but symbolic of something else? Revelation 14:2: \u201cAnd I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpers playing on their harps\u201d (RSV). The Revised Standard was used to show clearly the meaning of the verse. John did not hear the sound of water nor thunder but he heard a voice like water and thunder. Neither did he hear harpers playing on their harps but a voice that sounded like harpers playing on their harps. There is a difference as you can readily see. It is as useless to try to prove literal harps in heaven, as it would be to prove that there are literal beasts in heaven. Even if there were literal harps in heaven, that would not justify such in our worship. The will of God in heaven is not necessarily and always the same as here on earth. Here we marry, but in heaven, there will be no marriages (Matthew 22:30).\n\u201cYou use song books, lights, pitch-pipes in your song service.\u201d This is true. However, one should learn the difference between an aid and an addition. The difference may be seen in the following example. Suppose that an individual was offered one hundred thousand dollars to walk from Montgomery to the city of Dothan, and that all modes of transportation had to be excluded. And let\u2019s suppose that this person does walk to the city of Troy; but at that point, he buys a ticket to ride a bus the rest of the way to Dothan. Of course, we understand that by doing such, the one hundred thousand dollars will have to be forfeited. The reason being is that something more and different than walking was done by this individual. On the other hand, suppose that this person grows weary on the trip and stops and cuts a limb from a tree for a walking stick. Has he violated the terms of the agreement? Of course not. We understand that he was not doing anything but walking. The stick simply aided him. Similarly, the use of songbooks, pitch pipes etc. are aids in assisting us to fulfill the scriptural obligation to sing (Ephesians 5:19). Whenever we sing, none of these things is heard. Christians are required to assemble to worship (Hebrews 10:25). A building, whether rented or purchased, is an aid in assisting Christians to meet such a directive from God. But the use of mechanical instruments is something more and different from singing. Playing an instrument would be parallel to riding the bus in the aforementioned example. The instrument becomes an addition to the requirement of the Lord to sing and make melody in our hearts to God.\nOthers will state \u201cDavid used the instrument in his worship to God.\u201d It is also true that David practiced polygamy. He furthermore offered animal sacrifices and burnt incense in his worship to God. If a person endeavors to justify the use of instrumental music in worship today by appealing to the Law of Moses, he must understand \u201cthat he is a debtor to do the whole law\u201d (Galatians 5:3). One should also consider the words of Paul in this matter when he said, \u201cChrist is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace\u201d (Galatians 5:4). The Old Law was given to govern the children of Israel (Deuteronomy 5:1-3). And, it did for about fifteen hundred years, from Moses until Christ died on Calvary (Galatians 3:19, 16). Christ fulfilled that Law (Matthew 5:17-18; Luke 24:44). The Lord \u201chath taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross\u201d (Colossians 2:14). In this age, we are to hear Christ (Matthew 17:5; Hebrews 1:1-2). While the Old Testament is as much the inspired Word of God as is the New Testament, our relation to that Law is different in this Christian dispensation. Jesus Christ is the Testator of his Will and New Testament. While the Lord lived, he kept the Law of Moses perfect; however, when Jesus died on the cross, his new Will came into force (Hebrews 9:15-17). Therefore, we are to follow his teachings as found in the twenty-seven books of the New Testament. In matters pertaining to the worship of Christians unto God today, we must find a \u201cthus saith the Lord\u201d for all that we do in his Last Will and Testament (Colossians 3:17).\nTraditions and customs of men. Often one assumes that something should be included in worship simply because it has always been done that way. But such is not the proper criterion in establishing religious authority. Traditions or customs are begun by men and not bound by God as authoritative. Such may vary from generation to generation and from country to country, but the Word of God does not vary from generation to generation and from country to country.\nDoctrines of men. Since the completion of the New Testament before the end of the first century, multitudes of creeds written by men have been produced and bound upon people, the first one being written in A.D. 325 at the Council of Nicea. Jesus spoke of the traditions and doctrines of men in Matthew 15:7-9 when he said, \u201cYe hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you saying, This people honoreth me with their lips; but in vain do they worship me, teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men.\u201d\nPersonal likes and/or dislikes. If a person is not careful, he will include in worship to God what is pleasing to the sensual, that is, the physical and emotional appeal of men. And certainly, most of the music being rendered today consists of the various instruments that will stir the sensational senses of a person. But is this pleasing to God? The author of true worship must be consulted in what constitutes acceptable worship. Jesus declared, \u201cGod is Spirit, and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth\u201c(John 4:24). God is the object of our worship and such must be from the heart and according to truth, that is, God\u2019s revealed Word.\nMost of the religious world has followed the philosophies of two great reformers of the 16century, Martin Luther and his counter part, Ulrich Zwingli. Luther possessed the desire to retain in the church all that was not expressly condemned by the Word of God. Zwingli, on the other hand, was intent on abolishing all that could not be proven by the Holy Scriptures. There is a vast difference in these two attitudes toward the Bible. The former exclaims that all can be included in our worship if it is not expressly forbidden. The latter emphatically declares that only those things that are taught in the Word of God can be practiced in religious matters. Zwingli had the right concept and attitude toward biblical authority. Peter declared, \u201cIf any man speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God\u2026\u201d (1 Peter 4:11). Paul wrote, \u201cAll scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works\u201d (2 Timothy 3:16-17). What we exclude in our worship today is a direct result of our attitude toward biblical authority. In short, one must find authority by direct command or a binding example in the New Testament for the avenues of worship. Only that which can be found therein should be retained; all else should be excluded.\n\u2190 HEARING BUT NOT BELIEVING\nMORALITY ALONE CANNOT AND WILL NOT SAVE! \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Shakespeare, Walter Deverell\nPre-Raphaelites and Shakespeare: As You Like It\nA Scene from \u201cAs You Like It\u201d by Walter Howell Deverell\nDeverell took great pains with As You Like It. Lucinda Hawksley describes the outdoor modeling session in her book Essential Pre-Raphaelites saying \u201cAccording to legend, the models were expected to stand in a Surrey wood \u2014 in all weathers \u2014 for hours on end. At times the trio were soaked as the artist ignored their protestations and continued painting, his precious canvas protected by an umbrella\u201d\nDeverell died while working on this piece. He was only 26 and suffered from Bright\u2019s disease. A Scene from \u201cAs You Like It\u201d was finished by his friend, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, in order to assist the family. They were not well off and were in great need of the finances raised by the sale of this work.\nAs You Like It is one of Shakespeare\u2019s comedies. A French duke, driven from his dukedom by his brother, sought a refuge in the forest of Arden with a few of his followers. Here they lived a free and easy life. Rosalind, the daughter of the banished duke, remained at court with her cousin Celia. At a wrestling match Rosalind fell in love with Orlando, who triumphed over a professional athlete. The usurping duke, Frederick, now banished her from the court and her cousin Celia was determined to go to Arden with her. So Rosalind in boy\u2019s clothes and Celia dressed as a rustic maiden set out to find the deposed duke. Orlando, also driven from home by his elder brother, also went to the forest of Arden where he was taken under the duke\u2019s protection. Here he met the ladies and a double marriage was the result \u2014 Orlando married Rosalind and his elder brother Oliver married Celia. The usurper retired to a religious house and the deposed duke was restored to his dominions.\nAnd one man in his time plays many parts (As You Like It)\nShakespeareWalter Howell Deverell\nI hope they got well paid. Their postures are slightly odd don\u2019t you think?\nYes, none of them look comfortable. Or particularly happy, for that matter!\nThe poses do seem unnatural, but I love the setting, the lighting, the fern detail, and all the greens and russets. Lovely!\nEven though the models were uncomfortable, Deverell obviously picked the right spot! You\u2019re right, the greens and russets are lovely.\nDoes anyone know the models in As You Like It? I read somewhere that Lizzie Siddal was in a painting that Rossetti had to finish for Deverell aftre his death- other than 12th Night\u2026a different one. This doesn\u2019t look like her\u2026..\nIs there a place where u can see Doctor\u2019s Last visit?\nLove your cite!",

Her message: \u201cNever give up\u201d. \u201cOn May 2, 2015, when I lost my husband, I lost everything and slipped into depression. But my two-year-old daughter gave me motivation to come out of hopelessness. I succeeded after several attempts,\u201d says Lt Sambyal.\nA \u2018C\u2019 certificate holder of the National Cadet Corps, Lt Sambyal was commissioned as a Lieutenant in the Army Ordnance Corps on September 9. She joined the Army in 2017 and graduated as an officer after undergoing a one-year training at the Officers Training Academy, Chennai.\nLt Sambyal lost her husband Rifleman Ravinder Sambyal after three years of their marriage. He passed away while attending a drill in his regiment.\n\u201cI belong to a Rajput family where lot of social stigma is attached to widows. As such, joining the Army would never have been easy... I reluctantly shared the idea with my father-in-law who not only supported it but went out of the way to help me realise my dream,\u201d says Lt Sambyal, her voice choking with emotions.\nLt Sambyal\u2019s brother Varinder Singh Slathia, who is serving in the Air Force, also encouraged her to translate her \u201cbold\u201d decision into reality. Her parents belong to Gurha-Slathia village in Samba district, which is known for producing valiant soldiers. She was married in Baada village in the same district.\n\u201cI understand the trauma and agony faced by widows in our conservative society. I was able to take this decision only with the support of my in-laws and brother,\u201d the officer says. Having cracked the SSB exam in the first attempt, Lt Sambyal says her father-in-law and brother\u2019s encouragement were enough for her to fight the odds. \u201cI was least bothered what people would think after my family openly backed me,\u201d she says, adding she now would serve the nation with the same zeal as her late husband did.",

But there are plenty of high profile names marking their big days in July. Here are the names you need to put on the royal birthday card list for the month ahead.\nQueen Sonja of Norway in 81 on July 4th\nSonja Haraldsen was born on July 4th 1937 in Oslo, the daughter of Karl and Dagny Haraldsen. She grew up in the Norwegian capital where she studied dressmaking as well as accounting. After a nine year courtship, she became engaged to the then Crown Prince of Norway, Harald, in 1968 and they married in August that year. She became Queen of Norway on January 17th 1991.\nCrown Princess Victoria of Sweden is 41 on July 14th\nVictoria Ingrid Alice Desiree was born on July 14th 1977 at the Karolinska Hospital, Solna. She is the first child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia but at the time of her birth had no right to succeed to her country's throne. A change in the law meant that on January 1st 1980 she became Crown Princess of Sweden, relegating her new baby brother to second in line to the throne. Victoria grew up in Stockholm and in 2010 she married Daniel Westling. The couple has two children, Estelle and Oscar.\nPrince Michael of Kent is 76 on July 4th\nMichael George Charles Franklin was born on July 4th 1942 at Coppins, Iver in Buckinghamshire, the second son and third child of the then Duke and Duchess of Kent, George and Marina.

A tenement belonging to Bro. Fegan of Lodge 80 became vacant and it was agreed that the premises would be taken and a Masonic Hall built on the site. The building work was carried out by Bro. Alex Whelan of Canal Street, Newry.\nThe hall was opened and dedicated to Freemasonry by representatives from Provincial Grand Lodge of Down in a solemn and impressive manor. V.W. Bro. Hunter Moore, P.J.G.W representing the Deputy Provincial Grand Master, and Right Worshipful Bro. Dr. Crossle, Provincial Grand Secretary, assisting as master of ceremonies. Bro Mills, organist, Banbridge, rendered several pieces of music on the harmonium during the dedication.\nThe entire ceremony was most efficiently performed by the several officers, after which R. W. Bro Crossle gave an eloquent address, which was listened to with earnest attention, and towards it's close, when he referred to Masonry and its Antiquity in the neighbourhood in Rathfriland, making special reference to the late lamented Bro. Benjamin Brown Meek, J.P., and his munificent acts of benevolence towards the Orphan School in Dublin, every eye glistened. His reference to some old members in and about Rathfriland, who had been dead for more than half a century, and who had reflected honour on the Brotherhood, was received with loud applause, and every brother present wondered how their Provincial Grand Secretary had gleaned such antiquarian lore.\nA cordial vote of thanks to the lecturer brought this interesting part of the evening's proceedings to a close. Representatives were present from Lodges, 18, 23, and 77 (Newry), 119 and 336 (Banbridge), 155 Rathfriland, and 277 Dublin. Provincial Grand Lodge having been closed, the officers and members of Lodge No.80 took their positions, when some routine proceedings occupied them for a short time, after which all present adjourned for refreshments - John C Todd, W.M. presiding. The usual loyal and Masonic toasts followed. The toast of \"Prosperity to Lodge 80\" having been proposed by Bro. Crossle in an able speech, was suitably responded to by the W.M., who referred to the necessity of vacating the old and occupying the new premises.\n6th Oct. 1896 \u2013\u201cThe brethren of Masonic Lodge No. 155 were compelled to vacate the rooms in which they held their meetings in Dromore Street, Rathfriland, owing to the unsuitableness of the situation and want of space, etc. It was decided at a specially called meeting to consider the matter and it was decided to accept an invitation from Lodge 80 to hold their meetings in the Hall.",

Known primarily for a single work, An Inquiry into the nature an causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776), the first comprehensive system of political economy, Smith is more properly regarded as a social philosopher whose economic writings constitute only the capstone to an overarching view of political and social evolution. If his masterwork is viewed in relation to his earlier lectures on moral philosophy and government, as well as to allusions in The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) to a work he hoped to write on \u00abthe general principles of law and government, and of the different revolutions they have undergone in the different ages and periods of society\u00bb, then The Wealth of Nations may be seen not merely as a treatise on economics but as a partial exposition of a much larger scheme of historical evolution.\nUnfortunately, much is known about Smith\u2019s thought than about his life. Though the exact date of his birth is unknown, he was baptised on June 5, 1723, in Kikcaldy, a small (population 1,500) but thriving fishing village near Edinburgh, the son by second marriage of Adam Smith, comptroller of customs at Kikcaldy, and Margaret Douglas, daughter of a substantial landowner. Of Smith\u2019s childhood nothing is known other than that he received his elementary schooling in Kirkcaldy and that at the age of four years he was said to have been carried off by gypsies. Pursuits was mounted, and young Adam was abandoned by his captors. \u00abHe would have made, I fear, a poor gypsy\u00bb, commented his principal biographer.\nAt the age of 14, in 1737, Smith entered the university of Glasgow, already remarkable as a centre of what was to become known as the Scottish Enlightenment. There, he was deeply influenced by Francis Hutcheson, a famous professor of moral philosophy from whose economic and philosophical views he was later to diverge but whose magnetic character seems to have been a main shaping force in Smith\u2019s development. Graduating in 1740, Smith won a scholarship (the Snell Exhibition) and travelled on horseback to Oxford, where he stayed at Balliol College. Compared to the stimulating atmosphere of Glasgow, Oxford was an educational desert. His years there were spent largely in self-education, from which Smith obtained a firm grasp of both classical and contemporary philosophy.\nReturning to his home after an absence of six years, Smith cast about for suitable employment. The connections of his mother\u2019s family, together with the support of the jurist and philosopher Lord Henry Kames, resulted in an opportunity to give a series of public lectures in Edinburgh - a form of education then much in vogue in the prevailing spirit of \u00ab improvement\u00bb.\nSmith then entered upon a period of extraordinary creativity, combined with a social and intellectual life that he afterward described as \u00ab by far the happiest, and most honourable period of my life\u00bb. During the week he lectured daily from 7:30 to 8:30 am and again thrice weekly from 11 am to noon, to classes of up to 90 students, aged 14 and 16. (Although his lectures were presented in English, following the precedent of Hutcheson, rather than in Latin, the level of sophistication for so young an audience today strikes one as extraordinarily demanding.) Afternoons were occupied with university affairs in which Smith played an active role, being elected dean of faculty in 1758; his evenings were spent in the stimulating company of Glasgow society.\nIn 1759 Smith Published his first work, The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Didactic, exhortative, and analytic by turns, The Theory lays the psychological foundation on which The Wealth of Nations was later to be built. In it Smith described the principles of \u00abhuman nature \u00ab, which, together with Hume and the other leading philosophers of his time, he took as a universal and unchanging datum from which social institutions, as well as social behaviour, could be deduced.",

        "title": "Flagellation, esp. in 18th-century England",
        "raw_content": "Flagellation, Historically Considered\nIt has sometimes been suggested that the sexual game play of flagellation reinforces power positions between men and women in the real world and reflects the patriarchal subjugation of women. However, contrary to this view that flagellation is mainly a matter of men exerting power over women, it has always been my understanding that, historically, flagellation as a sexual stimulant is predominantly a matter of men desiring to be whipped by women. In the large majority of cases, the birches with which 18th and 19th century brothels were supplied were meant to be applied by female prostitutes to the buttocks of their male clients. The \"English vice\" is a fantasy that upper-middle-class English gentlemen have about being caned as if they were schoolboys. That is, the desire for flagellation is primarily passive and masochistic, and doesn't fit very well into the model of men as the dominant partner in sexual relations. The archetypal figure of this particular kind of sexual power is of course the dominatrix.\nOf course it could be pointed out that the dominatrix etc. is a woman employed by a man to fulfil a man's desires, and she is not a subject exercising her own desires; hence the situation reflects dominance of a woman by a man despite the apparent role reversal. With regard to the important question about who really has the power in sex games between men and female prostitutes, I would have to agree that in a very general sense the man who plays the piper calls the tune. It is obvious in such situations that the services are laid on to meet the customer's demand, and at the customer's expense. Nevertheless, I believe that the prostitute who demands payment for such services is in fact the person in control, and the male client who has to pay for them can often be a bit of a wimp who is reduced to begging for the service. She has the power derived from offering a relatively hard-to-obtain and therefore expensive service, and she increases her power by knowing how to withhold blows as well as how to administer them. It is not simply a matter of temporary role-reversal. Most flagellation of this sort takes place on the premises of the prostitute, who is pretty well in charge of things from start to finish, and who can call in her bully if the client gets out of hand. The prostitute who specializes in offering such services is usually a pretty tough character, and is often the madam who runs the entire establishment.\nThis at least seems to be the case according to the historical data up to the later twentieth century. The power of the prostitute has generally declined since the eighteenth century. I don't really know what the situation is in contemporary society, and I believe that the female prostitutes imported from Eastern Europe really exercise no power at all over their customers. But I believe that flagellation is offered by a more professional class of prostitutes, who do have more power than amateur drug-dazed streetwalkers. The videos shown on the interesting pornographic website MenInPain.com always conclude with a final episode after the game ends and the men and women sit laughing and joking together, which is meant to show that they are \"normal\" and that the preceding scenes weren't \"real\", but I judge that even in this final episode the women are still the powerful ones, the \"sexy dominant bitches\" who have humiliated the men in the preceding scenes. Of course, the whole thing including the final scene is carefully constructed and ultimately the producer of the videos is the one who has the power.\nSome may object to my broad generalization that men are more likely to be whipped by women than to whip women. But regarding the historical prevalence of flagellation, I think there is lots of evidence demonstrating that flagellation as a sexual stimulant is far more closely associated with men than with women. Women whipping men is very common in pornographic literature, and in historical data about prostitution, women birching men seems to have been a fairly common practice, at least in England during the past few hundred years, and the reverse is not as common. In ancient classical literature (as well as French pornography), the figure of the elderly man being birched by a woman in order to raise his flagging spirits or jaded appetite is a common image. How far this essentially comic trope reflects actual practice is hard to say, but it probably does have some connection to actual practice. The administration of the birch to male posteriors and the loins has a physiologically stimulating effect, quite aside from its psychological stimulation of playing roles. That is, the social meaning has a biological base.\nThe nature of the evidence always has to be examined, but I think that this is the conclusion about flagellation regardless of the categories of evidence, some very trustworthy, others less so, and that there are few data to support the opposite conclusion. For example, in eighteenth-century trials of prostitutes accused of theft, an amusing defence is that they had to go to the extra expence of obtaining a supply of birch rods to thrash the client at his request, hence the money they demanded (allegedly took or stole) from him. This claim by the prostitute is designed to make their accusers appear foolish and may be wholly untrue. Sometimes juries didn't believe their claim, and sometimes they would acquit the prostitute on the grounds that the man got what he deserved. There are also first-hand accounts of observing such practices; there are fairly trustworthy reports of seeing bunches of birch rods in prostitutes' rooms and brothels; and there are prints of the interiors of prostitutes' rooms which show the presence of birches. These of course are mainly satiric prints, and perhaps they do not reflect reality but just reflect a stereotype. On the other hand, eighteenth-century satiric prints derive their force from the fact that they exaggerate reality, not that they totally falsify it. You can systematically \"trouble\" the evidence as much as you wish, but since all the evidence tends towards one direction, you would have to assume a universal conspiracy to present something that is untrue. You would also need to find some way to account for why the opposite image, whether true or a fantasy, has not been presented. That is, it ought to be easy and a useful defence for prostitutes in such cases as I've mentioned above, to claim that the client demanded to thrash them for the client's sexual pleasure \u0096 but in fact such claims are rare. (The claim that men began beating a prostitute after having sex with her is sometimes made, but that is also fairly rare, and a different matter from the topic being discussed, i.e. flagellation as a sexual stimulant; the issue of rape is also a different matter, in my view). In the nineteenth century we begin to collect more trustworthy first-hand evidence, e.g. from men who like to be birched, noted in private diaries not intended for publication, which I think tends to reinforce the probable accuracy of the earlier evidence. Ian Gibson's book The English Vice: Beating, Sex and Shame in Victorian England and After which was published in 1978 is getting fairly old now, but I don't think it has been superseded with regard to the historical data he collected, though I think his Freudian interpretation (which is that flagellation equals \"oral agression\" deriving from a childhood \"trauma\") is outmoded.\nIt might be countered that masochism in general is more common in literature bought by women (\"bodice-rippers\" and romance novels for women). However, flagellation as a sexual stimulant is a very specific erotic practice, which, for one thing, focuses narrowly on the buttocks. Expanding this into the broad subject of masochism, and further construing the meaning of masochism by intepretation of \"implicit\" meanings in fiction, really leads us far away from the original topic. It is also my understanding that sadomasochism, which ought to be narrowly considered as a set of physical practices for sexual stimulation, is more associated with men than with women. It is my understanding (derived from sexological literature) that all unusual or extreme or \"deviant\" or fetishistic sexual practices \u0096 i.e. \"paraphilias\" that narrowly focus on a specific act or body part \u0096 are associated more with men than with women; e.g. paedophilia is more common in men than in women; algolagnia is more common in men than women; foot fetishism is more common in men than in women; and so it goes.\nCopyright \u00a9 2006, 2014 Rictor Norton.

        "title": "Gift yourself a retreat! \u2014 Rooted&Open",
        "raw_content": "Let's be honest going on a retreat is a privilege. Getting the chance to take a much needed break from your children, partner, chores, work and life is something of a distant fantasy. Except what if it could be a reality? What if going on a retreat was a soul nourishing necessity that helps you find yourself again? What if taking time away for yourself helped you to be a more joyful, calm and present mom and partner? Would it be worth the time and money? Would you go?\nI host various retreats for women and soon to host my first retreat for dads. For me it was an easy decision to do this. I intimately know the needs of women and moms. I know the amount of work and mental load women, especially mothers carry. I know how the burden of fear hangs on a mom's consciousness. I know the rage women are grappling with, but trying to suppress. Let's be honest, we have too much on our plate. There is never enough time to do what we need to do let alone what we want to do. On top of that it's easy to put everyone else, especially our kids and partner first. This neglect of self is dangerous. It can lead to depression, anger, resentment, bitterness, a loss of passion, a loss of creativity, and a loss of joy. The more you ignore your need for space, to take a break or do something that's nourishing, the more you lose touch with that tender part of your self that brings you home to who you are. This is the place where joy, passion and creativity resides. It's a place we need to be connected to in order to thrive.\nI'll be honest you can come home to yourself in many ways. It doesn't have to be through a retreat. You can start by doing more physical activities you enjoy like walking, yoga, dancing, bike riding, running, etc.. You can start by etching out some time each day where you don't have to think at all, I call it a mental nap. This is very important. With the amount of mental load we carry, we need moments in our day where we can be silent. This can happen in many ways like taking time to veg out, napping, meditating, reading, etc. You can also start by doing something that brings you joy. This can be anything; being with a friend, painting, creating, cooking, etc.. Whatever it is that feels good is what you need to follow, but make sure it's for YOU. Giving yourself a break in any way that works is most important. This is not a luxury. THIS IS A NECESSITY! Trust me, having some space gives you a chance to connect back to yourself. This connection has many gifts that you won't find outside of yourself. Most importantly it'll fill you up. The more full your cup is, the more you have to give and the more centered you will be.\nThe reason why retreats are so powerful is you get a physical, mental, and emotional break all at once. All that you are responsible for is put on a shelf for a short amount of time. It's a space where you can connect with who you are and what brings you joy. There are no to do lists, cleaning, cooking, driving around, or picking up the emotional pieces of your children and partner. It's a space for you to connect with other women who understand your journey. You can stay up as late as you want and wake up as late as you want. You don't have to worry about being woken up in the middle of the night and you get a bed all to yourself. Sounds amazing right!?!\nWhat I notice at my retreats is, women leave changed. A shift happens that's hard to put a finger on, but it's physically felt and noticeable. The opportunity to just be yourself in nature, around other women is so unique. I watch how women start the weekend a bit tense and on edge. The anxiety of leaving the family and being around strangers can bring up a lot. As the weekend progresses I watch bodies soften and become lighter. The lodge goes from quiet and contemplative to alive and energetic. By the evening of the first night laughter starts erupting through the lodge. Each day the groups hanging out together gets larger and the volume of noise increases with conversation and constant laughing. Faces shift from anxious and tense to delight and joy.\nFor some women this transformation happens quickly, for others it takes a day. No matter how long it takes everyone goes home renewed, relaxed and joyful. Almost every woman leaves truly transformed. I've been told this transformation lasts months and longer. I get to hear from these same women much later down the road about how the retreat changed them. They could see how the change that happened within their self had a direct positive impact on their family. It sounds a little grandiose saying this, but it's true. I am not quite sure what it is that changes them. However, I do know that being in nature is in itself very healing. I know that having space from the constant demands of raising a family is relieving to the nervous system. I know that when people who are in the same stage of life get together there is this really cool vulnerability and connection that happens. People see their fears, frustrations, anger, longings, joy and dreams in someone whom they would never guess shared so many similarities. Seeing your truth in another allows you to accept yourself in a new way. Knowing that you aren't the only one relieves guilt and shame. It creates an energy of it's ok, I am ok and I can accept who I am and where I am at. All of this adds up to women finding a lost piece of their self. It's a beautiful gift that is hard to put into words, but it's felt by all who show up.\nAs a family unit we are in a very interesting time in history. We are constantly bombarded with articles in how to parent and all the ways we are potentially screwing our kids up for life. More is damnded of us than ever before. Women more than ever before are working out of the home. Whether a woman is working or not majority of them women are demanding the men in their life to show up and share equal responsibility in the home and with the family. On top of that women are demanding more emotional connection from the men in their life. The pressure is high and men are feeling it.\nI am not a man, I am a woman. I am a mother and counselor. who works with women. I have a lot of share about my own experience of co parenting in this day and age. I also get to hear the stories of all the women I work with. I hear each woman talk about how exhausted they are. How they simply have too much on their plate. Most women are scared they are messing up and are struggling. These women feel rage she feels about it. I get to hear the stories of how these women are fed up, but don't know how to change. I am also a woman who is married to a man.\nShanti March 7, 2018 Comment",

        "title": "Mayoral Candidate Profile: Garry McCarthy - SCENE Chicago",
        "raw_content": "Home SCENE Magazine Tv Mayoral Candidate Profile: Garry McCarthy\nOne of Chicago\u2019s mayoral candidates is not like the rest: he has previously been fired by the mayor\u2019s office. That candidate is Garry McCarthy, the former Chicago Police Superintendent, who was fired due to the Laquan McDonald case and controversy over how the police handled the situation. Specifically, McCarthy was released as a result of the police department\u2019s efforts to keep the video of the shooting from going public.\nMcCarthy thinks he was unjustly fired. When asked during an episode of Chicago Tonight if he feels like a scapegoat, he said \u201cMaybe. \u2026 The simple fact is, I was allowed by law to take one action in the Van Dyke case, and that was to put him on paid desk duty. The entirety of that cover-up occurred at City Hall.\u201d McCarthy said that City Hall was in charge of the McDonald video and that Mayor Rahm Emanuel\u2019s law department also fought the release of the video in court. McCarthy claims that the video was not released because of political reasons.\nMcCarthy wants to distance his campaign from the McDonald incident, saying that the incident has nothing to do with why he is running for mayor. He thinks that the shakedown of the police department after that incident was a political witch hunt and could have been handled better. He brings up the example of the \u201cI can\u2019t breathe\u201d chokehold death of Eric Garner in New York and how they did not fire people within the department for minor disciplinary infractions.\nThe main policies that McCarthy wants to put in place when in office are related to taxes, the economy of the city, crime and public safety, and the education of children, according to his campaign website.\nMcCarthy has spent his entire career in law enforcement and thinks that the one thing that needs to be fixed in Chicago before anything else can be addressed is public safety, arguing that \u201cNothing is going to change in this city until we first make it safe.\u201d His main focus is to make people feel like Chicago is a safe city. Throughout his campaign press tour, McCarthy has repeatedly said that a main reason why he is running is that his friends and other residents are moving out of Chicago due to a lack of safety.\nWhen analyzing the problems within Chicago schools, McCarthy says that \u201cwhatever happens outside the schools affects what happens inside them,\u201d meaning that if a kid has to live in violent neighborhood, that violence will affect the child\u2019s education. He also has slammed Emanuel for closing 57 schools between 2013 to 2018, although McCarthy says that he won\u2019t try to reopen any of these schools. McCarthy says he will use the proceeds gained from closing the schools to re-invest in neighborhood schools.\nMcCarthy\u2019s plan to fix crime in the city is based around a 12-point plan that involves a blue-ribbon panel review of all Chicago police department proceedings, making the police more accountable and accessible to the community and prioritizing anti-gang and illegal firearms arrests. McCarthy\u2019s plan to resolve crime and police-related issues isn\u2019t as radical as those of other mayoral candidates, but it is also less defined, since the 12-point plan does have a lot vague language.\nStopping borrowing, creating stricter budgets and maintaining a strong tax base are the ways that McCarthy wants to run the city\u2019s finances if he gets elected. He sees the \u201cmass exodus\u201d from Chicago as a problem, since that population shrinkage lowers the city\u2019s tax base. McCarthy is also very critical of borrowing money, since he sees that as a short-term solution that doesn\u2019t ultimately fix the problem. In order to get rid of Chicago\u2019s borrowing habits, McCarthy wants to make strict budgets for government departments and put in place performance-based metrics to help keep departments more accountable.\nMcCarthy\u2019s two main points to help Chicago are to keep residents within the city and to make people feel safe within the city. He sees public safety as the first step to solving Chicago\u2019s issues. The biggest challenge McCarthy will face is public trust, since he was in charge during one of the most problematic times in Chicago police history. However, if the public sees him as a candidate for safety rather than a bureaucrat that was in charge of the police responsible for the Laquan McDonald incident, he will have a better shot at becoming mayor.\nPrevious articleThe Power of Food Does More Than Satisfy Hunger\nNext articleThe End Zone",

        "raw_content": "by Andrex on March 9th, 2017, 4:39 pm\nAll motions can produce blueshift,\nThis is the second time you affirm this; explain to me which motions produces blueshift?\nI had my lesson! I know you won't try to understand, so I won't explain it again.\nThen your theory cannot be anything else than... right.\nDo you want me to make a compromise before I find it logical?\nOf course, otherwise it wouldn't be a compromise.\nWell, then. like I said, no use discussing it; your theory cannot be anything else than... right.\n\"Flat\" space doesn't mean constant inflation at all. It means \"flat\" topology where motion is expressed in a straight trajectory.\nEither we chose that it is bodies that move, or that it is space that expands,\nWhat does that choice change in the topology of space? Control your horses; they're running wild.\nIf it is space that expands, then bodies do not have to move,\nAnd if it's the galaxies that move, where do they fall when they reach the end of space that doesn't expand?\nOn the other hand you took care not to explain, how come some galaxies are getting nearer to us, others are coming toward us and are still receding from us, and most of them are simply receding getting farther from us. Or maybe you forgot?\nAndrex \u00bb March 9th, 2017, 3:39 pm wrote:\nAny motion can produce blueshift: a ball produces redshift seen from the pitcher, but it produces blueshift seen by the batter. No motion produced by the expansion of galaxies can produce blueshift, so we cannot say they are in motion.\nAndrex wrote:\nDo you homework and study it, then we may tell if it is interesting or not.\nDo your homework if you want me to talk about my theory again.\nWhat does that choice change in the topology of space?\nIt is not a question of topology, it is a question of motion, of real motion from bodies themselves, not only from expansion or contraction of space, for which we have absolutely no mechanism to provide.\nAt the same place space falls when it expands.\nIt is you that did not explain that kind of motion. Your particles that begin rotating out of a gravitational effect are far from doing so, and it is your only motion that is not directed towards or away from a center.\nby Andrex on March 10th, 2017, 6:33 pm\nThat is the worst superficial explanation I ever read. But with your kind of imagination, you could see yourself out of the universe and observe the \"blueshift\" produced by the universe coming toward you.\nMixing things again. It's your homework to make yourself understood; not mine to understand you. Furthermore, it's your homework to make it interesting. Up until now, I've got to push myself to keep considering it.\nI can wait that you make it interesting.\nYour horses are getting crazy again. The subject was what you affirmed with thinking: \"Flat space means constant expansion, not straight motion since it is not a motion.\" And the \"mechanism\" you're looking for is kinetic energy.\nI agree that my question could provoke a silly answer; specially if a serious answer would disturb your former affirmation.\nLet me tell you something: if you don't explain the connection between what I asked and what you answered, I'm not saying anything else to you. It's more than time that you exchange logically.\nAndrex \u00bb March 10th, 2017, 5:33 pm wrote:\nOf course I could, and it would only mean that the universe is not made out of unobservable space, but out of observable massive bodies.\nDo your homework and study it, then we may tell if it is interesting or not.\nMixing things again. It's your homework to make yourself understood; not mine to understand you.\nUnderstanding each other is a question of compromise, we got to find the \"juste milieu\" between our two theories.\nThe only interest for you is that it could improve your theory. If you can't imagine that, then you will never find it interesting.\nthe \"mechanism\" you're looking for is kinetic energy.\nThe mechanism is motion, accompanied by resistance to motion, a composite mechanism.\nMy answer was as serious as yours, and it still is: why would space be able to do things matter cannot?

If we find a compromise, we will get along, otherwise we will not, and it's doesn't depend on which one of us has the best idea. :0)\nby Andrex on March 11th, 2017, 10:32 am\nMissing the point again! The subject was \"is expansion a \"motion\"? And your \"of course I could\" wouldn't mean observable massive bodies\" but observable \"blueshift\". Which means that expansion is a \"motion\" even by your standards.\nSo if you don't compromise, it means that you don't understand. I wonder what compromise your made with Archimedes to understand is principle?\nSo interest, for you, means: making a profit. I'm nor \"interested\" in profits, sorry. I guess you'll have a hard time understanding that. You're only way out would be making a compromise and \"believe\" me. That would confirm that you don't understand, though.\nYou're right; the mechanism is motion; and motion is the \"work\" produced by kinetic energy. Sorry.\nMy answer was as serious as yours, and it still is: why would space be able to do things matter cannot\nSo your galaxies fall into a \"no space land\". If you think a little bit longer; a nanosecond for example, you could understand that space by expanding \"produces \"space\" so it doesn't fall anywhere. Understanding that would show how silly was your answer and you wouldn't have to make a compromise to \"understand\" it.\nCan your mind do things that your body cannot?\nEverything that my mind ask my body to do, is because my mind cannot do by it itself.\nForget about logic, it will always be that of the strongest.\nOr the \"wisest\"...maybe? You know, the \"strongest\" never bothered me much. I really don't care for them.\nThe only way to get along with people is to make compromises.\nBut there's a limit. For example, I don't have anything against \"transgenres\" but I'm not interested to become one.\nIf we find a compromise, we will get along, otherwise we will not, and it's doesn't depend on which one of us has the best idea.\nI usually get along with others because I respect them; not because I compromise. But I admit, it doesn't work with whom doesn't do the same.\nAndrex \u00bb March 11th, 2017, 9:32 am wrote: Missing the point again! The subject was \"is expansion a \"motion\"? And your \"of course I could\" wouldn't mean observable massive bodies\" but observable \"blueshift\". Which means that expansion is a \"motion\" even by your standards.\nWhat I would observe is an expanding universe: blueshift on the near side, redshift on the far one, no shift at all in the middle, so I could still consider that it is space that expands and not bodies that are moving.\nSo if you don't compromise, it means that you don't understand.\nNo, it only means that I won't try to understand. When a politician makes a compromise in a negotiation, it doesn't mean that he agrees with what the other party thinks, it only means that he thinks it is useful for him to do so. Without that thinking, it is impossible to progress. A compromise is only a way to get close enough to establish a rule so that two different parties can work together. And it's a kind of a lie made to ourselves because we don't really believe that the other party is right.\nSo interest, for you, means: making a profit.

I thought that I needed to learn more about cosmology, so I tried to understand what you said.\nI didn't have to respect you to learn about your theory, only to imagine a reward.\nNow, missing the second point. I've describe you \"outside\" of the univese so all you see is \"blueshift\" when you look at the universe; because it cannot go \"away from you. It can only come nearer to you. You really have \"concentration\" problems; don't you?\nNo, it only means that I won't try to understand.\nBig big concentration problems; how can you \"try\" to understand something that you already understand? You said that it didn't mean you didn't understand; that it meant you wouldn't try to.\nWhen a politician makes a compromise in a negotiation, it doesn't mean that he agrees with what the other party thinks, it only means that he thinks it is useful for him to do so.\nBla bla again; whether he agrees or not, needs him to, at least, understand it.\nWithout that thinking, it is impossible to progress. A compromise is only a way to get close enough to establish a rule so that two different parties can work together.\nWhat if they only agree to work together?\nAnd it's a kind of a lie made to ourselves because we don't really believe that the other party is right.\nI think you're right; and you can keep on lying to yourself; it doesn't change anything for me.\nWell, mother Theresa, I hope you get to heaven. I don't give a s... And I didn't ask anything in return to give you informations.\nDo you mean that \"space\" has speed?\n...understand that space by expanding \"produces \"space\" so it doesn't fall anywhere.\nSo it's the whole deformation containing matter that falls in a \"no space area\". At least you're starting to understand that it's the volume of deformed space that contains matter. Just a bit more and you'll understand that it's the center of gravity of that deformed space that \"travels\". After that you'll be on your way to \"comprehension\".\nWisest and strongest are synonymous in this case: they both mean that you can impose your ideas to others\nIt didn't happen to me yet. How wise can I be? Don't you agree? What I see is, to you, just as \"speed\" is the same as \"motion\", \"wise\" is the same as \"strong\". No wonder you \"try\" to understand by \"compromising\".\ninstead of convincing them, and that's what logic is about as far as I am concerned.\nThen you should really \"try\" to understand things very hard; it might help you in your logic.\nBut you said that you did \"compromise\"; not \"try to understand\". And that doesn't change the fact that you need to learn more about cosmology; to which \"compromising\" won't help you, I'm afraid. \"Dealers\" are not necessarily persons of \"knowledge\".\nI hope you got your reward. Now you'll have to respect yourself, because I don't really care what you think of me; in fact, it's not even important to me. What I think of myself is enough; and the criteria I impose on myself are most probably \"stiffer\" that the ones you would impose on me. That is what shows, at least, the precision we each impose on the words we use.\nYou should have asked me what would have happened if your universe would have hit me head on! :0)\nIt's impossible to work on an idea that is not shared. To do so, the two parties have to move halfway towards the other one to show their good will. That's what a compromise is about.\nYou're more rigid than me, I bet your girlfriend likes it! :0)\nWell, mother Theresa, I hope you get to heaven. I don't give a s... And I didn't ask anything in return to give you information.\nThat kind of reward is virtual, it's only in our mind, like mother Teresa's one. It works like a placebo.\nNo, I mean that you attribute it the properties of mass, exactly like Einstein did. That's bad, very bad, you're no going to win your heaven like this! :0)\nLogic is like reason, both mean we are right and others are wrong.\nI can learn cosmology alone. If I did it with you, it's only because I imagined a possible reward. Two minds can develop more possibilities than only one.\nTo me, respect doesn't have the same meaning than to you, so it's not only the precision of the words that counts, and it's the same for many words that we use. I expected two kinds of rewards, one from getting more knowledge, that I got, and one from working together, that I didn't get yet, but I didn't say my last word about that one. I still believe that we could analyze the small steps out of your space principle, and that it could benefit to both of us. Maybe what you think of yourself is too much for you to make a compromise though. I used to think that a compromise was a lie, but then I realized that even my small steps had to make some, so I changed my mind about mine.\nYou should have asked me what would have happened if your universe would have hit me head on!\nSorry for not asking the same question you would have ask.\nIt's impossible to work on an idea that is not shared.\nOk let's start: What do you want me to repeat?\nTo do so, the two parties have to move halfway towards the other one to show their good will. That's what a compromise is about.\nExchanging for 8 pages going nowhere is enough \"good will showing\" for me. You'll have to make with that.\nYou're more rigid than me, I bet your girlfriend likes it!\nWe have problem developing a discussion on one subject effectively; but you sure are polyvalent.\nNo, I mean that you attribute it the properties of mass, exactly like Einstein did.\nLet's look at what you said: \"Kinetic energy is the product of mass with speed, and space has no mass, so we cannot measure its energy.\" Your present answer wants to say that I attribute kinetic energy the properties of \"mass\" like Einstein did. This is another proof that you say whatever passes through your mind without thinking even a nanosecond; because I don't attribute kinetic energy to mass; I say that \"mass energy\" and the energy responsible for expansion is attributed to kinetic energy. When you ear a ringing bell you must ear drums beating.\nThat's why I like saying that you're right. Doing so seems logic to my reason.\nI can learn cosmology alone. If I did it with you, it's only because I imagined a possible reward.\nTo get the reward you're really looking for; you're better off alone, I think.\nTwo minds can develop more possibilities than only one.\nI made you a proposition to develop a new theory and you didn't accept it; so don't be a politician.\nTo me, respect doesn't have the same meaning than to you,\nI expected two kinds of rewards, one from getting more knowledge, that I got, and one from working together, that I didn't get yet,\nLife is mostly a very lonely trip.\nI still believe that we could analyze the small steps out of your space principle, and that it could benefit to both of us.\nEverything you asked me to analyse until now, I did the best I can. It seems that you got benefits from it. So did I, actually.\nMaybe what you think of yourself is too much for you to make a compromise though.\nWhat I think of me is what I live by. Let's hope it's not an error. How badly do you think of yourself?\nI used to think that a compromise was a lie, but then I realized that even my small steps had to make some, so I changed my mind about mine.\nVery surprising what \"small steps\" can do.\nThe small steps can probably represent any kind of motion, but it seems that you're not ready to try them yet, so I think it's time to end this conversation. Don't quit talking about your ideas though, it's the only way to know if any idea is right. :0)\nThe small steps can probably represent any kind of motion, but it seems that you're not ready to try them yet, so I think it's time to end this conversation.\n\"Probably\" is the word, \"I'm not ready\" is your opinion, \"ending this conversation\" is your escape.\nDon't quit talking about your ideas though, it's the only way to know if any idea is right.\nSo \"bla bla\" is your way of knowing if an idea is right? Now I can understand how you proved your theory.\nAs for my idea, it did improve a bit. Here is my \"bla bla\" about it:\nAt exactly 10^-43 sec after time = zero, appeared suddenly a tremendously fast rotating surface, having a diameter of 10^-33 meter, that disappeared just as fast when ripping, through the center, in two parts. One \"half part\" projecting virtual particles, we call neutrinos, in all directions, instantly making reappear a volume of 10^-33 meter without any center to it.\nThe other \"half part\" pulling virtual particles back into one \"whole bundle\" in a \"counter rotation spin\" of the previous surface, recovered the \"non observable\" Planck epoch's status, continuing to accumulated kinetic energy by its rotation.\nAt exactly 10^-36 sec, the receded \"bundle\" of virtual particles, having finally attain the \"observable\" size of 10^-33 meter, reappeared in our expanding universe, which by the time had reach the size of 10^-15 meter, provoking an instant \"inflation\" of the whole \"universal volume\". Each virtual particles of that reappearing \"bundle\" adopted, at that instant, 10^-15 meter as its \"energetic action field\". And the gluons joining themselves to the neutrinos made our universe an electromagnetic universe. A great amount of energy was then added, but not \"released\", in our expanding universe.\nThese gluon virtual particles, being \"surfaces\" particles, weren't able to expand since their characteristic was a topology of \"pulling back on themselves\" adopted at the \"split\" of the original surface that appeared in our universe at 10^-43 sec. So their front was ripped from their back surfaces by the continuing expansion of space in all directions, which produced two \"mirror surface particles\" with a topology oriented to each their own center.\nEach \"ripped\" surfaces, being handicapped by the absence of their \"other side\", where recoiled on themselves by their \"inner energy\" pressuring at their center. That new added energy in our universe was, then, imprisoned inside a voluminous particle which, itself was imprisoned inside a volume of space that had a \"counter expanding\" topology.\nThis event happened to 75% of all the new surface particles with the \"pulling back\" inner topology. Those \"surfaces\" we call \"gluons\", where transforming themselves in Top and anti-Top quarks. Massive particles where born, and \"mass energy\" was confined inside those new volume particles. These new massive particles and their \"inner\" subsequent decayed generations produced by their energetic balancing with the environment, where all confined in the previous 10^-15 meter \"energetic action field\" of the gluon. In fact, the quarks that where too energetic for the environment had successively disappear and been replaced by more adapted quarks.\nAt 10^-32 sec, massive particles had all appeared in the universe including the three generations of electrons that originated from the colliding of gamma rays during all the \"vibrations\" provoked by decaying massive particles during the \"inflation\" period. The three generations of photons also made their successive punctual apparitions when massive particles emitted quanta of energy, to balance themselves with their constantly diluting environment, expanding at the speed permitted by the kinetic energy released when the original surface was split at 10^-43 sec.\nThat kinetic energy that manifested itself at that moment, was half the energy that was accumulated during Planck's epoch and provoke the expansion of \"space\" at the speed of light. This speed became \"absolute\" because no other energy was \"released\" in the \"flat\" topology of our universe since then.\nSpace, with its distances and its time as been observable because the particle projected, the neutrino, had a left-handed helicity, which made it travels a bit slower than light speed. The unobservable universe is the part that expands at light speed where distances are null and time is frozen.\nIn the observable universe of that epoch, massive particles being carried by expansion in all and different directions, began \"brushing\" and colliding against each other, provoking \"accretions\" of particles which augmented the space deformations around them thus provoking more accretion of particles and giving each different speed. The result is the galaxies we seen today.\nMeanwhile, the expanding of \"flat\" space, exponentially augmenting compared to \"altered\" space, produced the \"filament\" distribution of \"matter\" (massive particles) that we observe presently.\nThat would be enough \"bla bla\" for now, I guess.\nI'm not escaping, it's space that is expanding between you and me! I guess our deformed space is not important enough. Maybe 120 k/h on the highway could compensate for the drift, but I'm not sure it would change our minds. :0)\nMaybe 120 k/h on the highway could compensate for the drift, but I'm not sure it would change our minds.\nI don't think it would since, once again' you're putting the accent on \"speed\" instead of on \"motion\". If you would give importance to \"motion\" instead of \"speed\", your mind wouldn't be propelled \"in all directions\" and you could focus \"on one single point\" to stabilize your ideas. Topology is always the essential reason for every event.\nFrom the \"resum\u00e9\" of my \"bla bla\", we can understand that each massive particles made their appearance in our universe when the diluting energetic density of the environment obliged particles to adjust to it. Very few, if any, appeared at the same moment.\nI really don't think that all answers are found in this \"theory\"; for example, if we consider that \"absolute rest\" doesn\u2019t exist, it means that everything is in motion.\nBut \"absolute motion\" doesn\u2019t exist either. And this means that any motion has a \u201ccause\u201d, an origin; but we know that the origin of motion is kinetic energy; which work is to produce motion.\nI'm personally saying that \"expansion of space\" goes at light speed; but, then, how come that this speed doesn\u2019t diminish by the diluting energy produced by expansion of space?\nRep: It\u2019s not the intensity of energy that is diluted by expansion; it\u2019s the density of energy. So energy intensity of expansion stays the same while diluted in expanding space.\nBut if this is the case, it means that augmenting the density of energy doesn\u2019t augment the intensity of energy.\nSo what causes \u201cacceleration\u201d when motion is involved? In other words: how can \"intensity\" of energy be augmented to provoke acceleration?\nThere are some answers possible. But which one is the right one?\n1) accretion of \"mass energy\" provoke acceleration. Doubtfull but mustn't be rejected.\n2) emission of quanta of energy provoke acceleration. Possible but how do we explain it?\n3) expansion of space accelerates so it augments the speed at which it carries particles (like the flow of a river). But why are some objects accelerating and others decelerating?\n4) expansion of space has an invariant \"speed\" and objects simply adopts the speed produced by the intensity of their \"inner\" kinetic energy. Which doesn't explain acceleration at all.\nSo in the end, we have to re-study what really is \"acceleration\". Is acceleration and augmentation of speed or a diminution of the metric an object goes through?\nBut that would mean that acceleration in a \"flat\" universe would be impossible. The right answer is not an easy one to find.\nThe most important phrases I wrote, during the former exchange, in regard to space-time deformation is:\n1) \"The deformation of geometry of space-time is the gradual \"collapsing\" of its metric. It is the only logical explanation for the curve of a trajectory to depend of the speed of the object. If space geometric was \"physically\" curved (like the surface of a balloon), all objects would have the same trajectory whatever its speed.\"\n2) \"Massive or massless particles traveling through space have to follow the geometry (collapsing metric) of that space because there's no other \"path\" to follow.\"\n3) \"There's no reason, whatsoever, that expansion can be slowed down by the presence of matter. Matter is \"confined energy\" inside a volume of space where motions are directed to its center of gravity. Gravitation doesn't have any energetic \"power\"; it's simply a \"result\" of deformed space; just like a mountain slope that seems to \"pull\" you to its bottom. The slope doesn't have any \"energetic power, by itself.\"\n4) \"Our universe is, today, an electromagnetic universe; which means that the universe is the same as a single big energetic photon in expansion. So when you have, what you call, an interaction between particles, I say that it's an interaction between one particle and its electromagnetic environment. To do so, it \"emits\" or \"absorbs\" energy in or from its environment. The particle \"interacting\" is only \"adjusting\" its energy to the \"diluting\" energy of its environment (space).\"\n5) \"Matter doesn\u2019t deform anything. Sorry. \"Mass energy\" does though.\"\n6) \"Expansion doesn\u2019t have anything to do with gravitation. One is energy while the other is a simple \u201cpassive\u201d non-energized consequence!!!\"\n7) \"Ice is water; but water isn't necessarily ice; just as mass is energy but energy isn't necessarily mass.\"\nThese should be considered as \"facts\" because they cannot be overlooked and are unavoidable.\nA few question I didn't answer yet. I let them giggle in my mind waiting for the \"natural\" outcome.\nWe know that absolute rest doesn\u2019t exist; which means that everything is in motion.\nBut we also know that absolute motion doesn\u2019t exist either. This means that any motion has a \u201ccause\u201d, an origin; and the origin of motion is kinetic energy; to which work is to produce motion.\nExpansion goes at light speed; but how come that speed doesn\u2019t diminish by the diluting energy produced by expansion?\nRep: It\u2019s not the intensity of energy that is diluted by expansion; it\u2019s the density of energy. So energy intensity stays the same while its density is diluted in expanding space.\nBut, then, if this is the case, it means that augmenting density of energy doesn\u2019t augment the intensity of energy. So what causes \u201cacceleration\u201d when motion is involved?\nFurthermore, if diluting density doesn\u2019t produce acceleration of a motion, why would augmenting density \u201cslow down\u201d motion? In other words, is the \"effect\" of Higg's field logical and acceptable?\nNewton's laws of motion are three physical laws that, together, laid the foundation for classical mechanics. They describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to those forces. The premise is, evidently, that the concept of \u201cforces\u201d is accepted as \u201ctrue\u201d without giving any origin to those \u201cforces\u201d.\nMore precisely, the first law defines the force qualitatively, the second law offers a quantitative measure of the force, and the third asserts that a single isolated force doesn't exist.\nFirst law: In an inertial reference frame, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force.\nWhich doesn\u2019t gives us any problem when an \u201cobject\u201d is \u201cat rest\u201d. But when an object is in motion at a constant velocity, we cannot keep from asking ourselves, what put that object in motion in the first place. We cannot, but we do keep ourselves from asking it.\nSecond law: In an inertial reference frame, the vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration a of the object: F = ma.\nThis formula gives the added energy (force) given to the factual energy producing the constant motion before acceleration. It doesn\u2019t give any information on the total energy manifested on the object which \"factual force\" is considered at zero, because we decide, without any logical reasons, that all \u201cforces\u201d acting on the object equalizes themselves. The reality is that \u201cforces\u201d equalizing themselves at a center point, can produce extreme pressure on that point; which is never considered in this second law.\nThird law: When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.\nSo, one single isolated force cannot exist. Which means that there can be no origin to expansion before \u201ccontraction\u201d (gravitation) exists. This is as logical as saying that a wall cannot push on you before you push on it. Consequently, the \u201cinertia\u201d of an object doesn\u2019t exist until a force is apply to that object. Meaning that an object doesn\u2019t have any weight before you start lifting it.\nWe have to take note that when Newton wrote his first and second law there was no references to an \u201cinertial reference frame\u201d, which was added when the laws where reformulated to adapt to new discoveries.\nNewton's law of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a \u201cforce\u201d that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centres. It was shown separately that large, spherically symmetrical masses attract and are attracted as if all their mass were concentrated at their centers, which, evidently, is the center of gravity.\nHere we must observe that when we read \u201clarge, spherically symmetrical masses\u201d we are talking about a \u201cbundle of matter\u201d and not a \u201cbundle of energy\u201d. Even though \u201cmass = energy\u201d, the energy inside a \u201cbundle of matter\u201d doesn\u2019t always correspond to the total energy it possess, we then, must make a difference between \u201cmatter\u201d and \u201cmass\u201d. And talking of \u201cbinding energy\u201d doesn\u2019t eliminate the presence or the absence of that quantity of energy. Since it is the total energy possessed by matter that alters the fabric of space-time, at the center of gravity; we then should talk of \u201cmass energy\u201d instead of simply \u201cmass\u201d. Saying that \u201cmass = energy\u201d doesn\u2019t give the complete information.\nNow, to analyse the importance of those concepts, we must take in consideration that Newton laid the basic laws for classical mechanics based on is observation of an object (apple) being attracted to the ground by another object (Earth). All our actual physic is based on that concept.\nTo bring this concept at its real value, we honestly must ask ourselves what would have been the basic laws of physic if Newton had observed what Hubble saw in 1925; meaning that galaxies where \u201creceding\u201d from one another rather than being \u201cattracted\u201d by one another. It\u2019s evident that all Newton\u2019s laws would have been formulated in exact contradiction of what they were. Which gives us the importance we must attribute to these laws of Newton. In fact they are based on nothing completely acceptable by observations.\nWe must accept, once and for all, the \u201cfact\u201d that objects do not attract themselves and those same objects do not \u201crepel\u201d themselves either. Objects simply follow trajectories determined by the geometry of space-time.\nAs for that geometry of space-time, it is either \u201cflat\u201d or \u201caltered\u201d. Nothing else is possible.\n\u201cFlat\u201d geometry is rather simple to imagine; it\u2019s a geometry of space-time that doesn\u2019t allow curved trajectories whatever the direction of the motion. Trajectories are always \u201cstraight\u201d topologically and geodetically.\nOn the other hand, \u201caltered\u201d geometry is a bit more difficult to imagine since \u201cspace-time\u201d has to be considered as \u201cempty space\u201d being \u201caltered\u201d by \u201cmass energy\u201d. Considering \u201cmass energy\u201d demands that \u201cmatter\u201d itself is withdrawn to second place in order to strictly consider the total energy involved in alteration of space-time. The result is that in an \"altered\" geometry of space-time, a trajectory is straight topologically and curved geodetically.\nThe next question becomes: What geometry of \u201cempty space\u201d could be \u201caltered\u201d, in order to influence geodetically a trajectory?\nThe only answer is: \u201cthe metric geometry\u201d of space-time; because there is nothing else than \u201cmetric\u201d (distances) existing in empty space-time.\nThe next question would be: What could happens to the metric of space-time that could \u201calter\u201d it?\nCuriously, the only answer possible to this question is observed in the collapsing of a neutron star. The \u201cfact\u201d is that the metric of the star collapses or \u201ccontracts\u201d. Which brings us to the observation that is exactly the \u201ccontrary motion\u201d of expansion attributed to the universe (whole space-time).\nConsequently we, definitively, observe only two kinds of motions in the universe; the \u201cexpanding motion\u201d and the \u201ccontracting motion\u201d, with, all the intermediate intensity of motion, between those two extremes, that we find in the status of a galaxy.\nIt\u2019s no use to defend or attack Newton\u2019s laws; all we have to do is relate to the new basic concepts that were discovered since 300 years to readjust our physic.\nWhat happens to an object going through a collapsing metric of space-time?\nI\u2019ll repost the drawing I previously presented and add one more information to it.\nThe importance of the added information on the right is that when we consider the basic metric of space-time being 10^-33 meter (Planck\u2019s length), the difference between entrances of the object in succeeding metric is unnoticeable and the result is a smooth curved trajectory.\nby RoccoR on March 20th, 2017, 2:56 pm\nAndrex, et al,\nFirst, let me say that I very much appreciate the contribution. But, I'm not sure you have told me what component forms a field or line of flux.\nAndrex \u00bb March 20th, 2017, 1:46 pm wrote: Newton\u2019s laws\nFirst law: I\nOh, we can calculate and use electricity and it current and voltage phenomenon.

What are the lines of flux made of?\nRemember, not all elements conduct electron flow. And not all elements can generate an electric field or be magnetic. If the electron flow is down the conductor, what are the two fields made from???\nby Andrex on March 20th, 2017, 10:36 pm\nLike I previously said, my theory doesn't supply all the answers, yet. There's still work to be done. That's why I call it an \"opinion\".\nThe answer to your question lies probably in your comment: \"Remember, not all elements conduct electron flow. And not all elements can generate an electric field or be magnetic.\"\nIt says (between the lines) that the \"fabric\" of the universe became electromagnetic; which means that basically, or \"at first\", it was not electromagnetic. \"Electron flow\" is electromagnetic and is also related to leptons. There are three types of leptons: Tau, Muon and Electron plus the neutrino that adapts itself to each types. Saying that the neutrino \"adapt itself to...\" means that it appeared before those three types of leptons.\nBut what is formed to constitute a field?\nThe first \"field\" that appeared in our neutral neutrino universe is the \"Gluon field\", that had the size of 10^-15 meter; which was the size of the universe at this epoch. At the same instant gamma rays appeared (with Top/antiTop quarks) and started to collide producing negative/positive \"leptons\", which merged with the neutral \"active field\" of the Gluon bosons. The universe keeping expanding became electromagnetic with fields of 10^-15 meter added as expansion progressed.\nThat's about what comes to mind when we consider the info supplied by what I've said until now.\nWhat are the lines of flux made of?\nLine of flux are related to magnetism; so they are related to a \"Gluon field\". I'll have to look a bit further on the subject. Ferromagnetic substances produce a stronger magnetic field of their own, and this field may persist when the external field is removed, leaving a permanent magnet. Iron is the best-known element of this type, and Iron is the only element that is really stable; which mean that it attain equilibrium with its environment and doesn't evolve anymore. Like I said, I'll have to look into it when I get the time.\nThere is also a line of flux related to the electric field. This subject is a bit more complicated and includes a lot more unknow. The coupling of the leptons to gauge bosons are flavour-independent (i.e., the interactions between leptons and gauge bosons are the same for all leptons). This property is called \"lepton universality\" and has been tested in measurements of the tau and muon lifetimes. As for the electron's lifetime, it's longer than the actual age of the universe; experiments give it a length of about five-quintillion times the current age of the universe. It is another \"realized\" particle like the proton.\nThanks for the interesting questions you brought to my mind. I'll surely work on it.\nby Andrex on March 22nd, 2017, 3:10 pm\nStages in evolution of the universe.\nOne thing is remarkable in the evolution (history) of our universe; it\u2019s that evolution proceeded by stages. As to know if those stages have been controlled by temperature or something else, is a very pertinent question.\nPersonally, I\u2019m not very fond of temperature control; at least at the beginning of the universe (inside my home is another matter). I find that we get a lot more precise and logical explanations by considering the gradually decreasing \u201cdensity\u201d of energy provoked by expansion than by simply temperature. In fact, it tell us exactly when each elementary particles we know, appeared in the universe. Which brings to my mind the concept of \u201cstages\u201d in evolution.\nWithout reaching before Planck\u2019s time, we have to admit that at that precise moment, evolution went through a transition phase that made appear what we call \u201cthe singularity\u201d from which our \u201cvolume\u201d universe proceeded. We could call this the \u201cfirst stage\u201d of \u201cspace\u201d.\nAt that date of 10^-43 sec, our universe acquired a volume, and space appeared, projected in all directions, from everywhere. Evidently, the topology of that kind of \u201cspace\u201d was \u201cflat\u201d. That period was \u201cobserve\u201d by Planck\u2019s satellite as a \u201cradiating period\u201d which lasted until 10^-36 sec. The reason that scientist describe that period as \u201cradiating\u201d is because they don\u2019t observe anything else than \u201cmotion\u201d of \u201csomething\u201d involved. I did propose that this \u201csomething\u201d was, in fact, the virtual-neutral-left-handed-helicity-massless particle called the neutrino. This period was then the first stage of our universe.\nAt 10^-36 sec, another transition phase occurred provoking \u201cinflation\u201d. I have explained inflation by the intrusion in our universe, of the gluons that transformed themselves, at 75%, into Top/antiTop quarks which then, decayed in other massive particles. This would be the second stage of the story. But this second stage is marked by many \u201csub-stages\u201d composing it.\nDuring this second stage, one sub-stage consisted of all three generations of quark particles that appeared successively. In the same time, another sub-stage states that Gamma rays appeared and, by colliding, produced the three generations of electrons, who were \u201cadopted\u201d by the existing neutrinos. All these successive appearances of particles were conditioned to the diminishing density of energy diluted by expansion of space. Making the result of that second stage being that our universe became an electromagnetic universe.\nWe must notice that this second stage was the first manifestation of what we will eventually call \u201centropy\u201d; which, in my mind, is more exactly an evolution toward \u201ccomplexity\u201d, which in fact is a more precise defining, rather than an orientation toward \u201cchaos\u201d.\nI have already brought you through the path of the evolution of massive particles in all the previous posts. I will try to guide you through the other sub-stages of electromagnetism.\nElectromagnetism appeared when the \u201cgluing\u201d characteristic of the gluon installed itself in our \u201cradiating\u201d universe. In fact, that characteristic was limited to each portions of space volumes having a diameter of 10^-15 meter, that continuously appeared by the expansion of space. This characteristic didn\u2019t have any other implication besides provoking gluon surfaces to become massive particles; until\u2026the appearance of the generations of electrons.\nWith the second stage, two sub-stages manifested at the same time:\n1) Production of quarks that were positive, and\n2) Production of electrons that were negative.\nTo explain this polarization, we go back when the universe was \u201cneutral\u201d, composed of neutrinos and even of gluons, where electromagnetism was absent. So when gluons produced quarks spinning positively, the electron adopted the compensated polarization of negative spin. The only explanation, for now, is that the universe always manage to keep equilibrium in everything it produces.\nSpin polarization is the degree to which the spin, i.e., the intrinsic angular momentum of elementary particles, is aligned with a given direction. And, in fact, an electron is like a small magnet. But we must remind ourselves that a magnet has a positive end while the other end is negative. So an electron is negative when its spin is aligned with a given direction. Gluons being the \u201cacting field\u201d for the quarks, the \u201cneutrino field\u201d of the expanding universe became the \u201cactive field\u201d of the electron.\nOne consequence of this, is observed by the impossibility of determining exactly the position of electrons around a nucleus, while it is easy to determine the nucleus itself. In fact, the nucleus of hydrogen has a diameter of 10^-15 meter, while we don\u2019t know exactly the size of an electron. Nucleus are \u201cfactual\u201d objects while electrons are \u201cblurred\u201d objects. Just as an atom is a \u201cfactual\u201d object, while the space between atoms is a \u201cghostly object\u201d. Which means that we must also remind ourselves that an electron is a \u201cblurred\u201d particle. I\u2019m afraid that all this will give me a lot of problems eventually.\nSo, our universe is, since that epoch, an electromagnetic universe. Let\u2019s try to imagine what the polarization of the whole universe is.\nFrom what we just said, we can deduce that \u201cflat\u201d universe is space where neutrinos travel, and \u201caltered\u201d space is where we meet the \u201cactive field\u201d of the gluons. We know that neutrinos go through \u201caltered\u201d space without practically no interaction with it. Neutrinos being present through matter proves that \u201cmatter\u201d occupy space and do not replace it; so even where we have \u201caltered space\u201d containing matter, we have fundamental \u201cspace\u201d.\nAnd if we accept that the \u201cneutrino field\u201d of expanding universe became the \u201cactive field\u201d of the electron, we have to accept that \u201cflat\u201d space is \u201coccupied by neutrinos AND electrons. The corollary of this acceptance is that \u201cflat\u201d space has a polarization that is \u201cnegative\u201d like electrons while \u201caltered\u201d space is positive like quarks.\nAnd this is the moment I was afraid of, where problems occur. I\u2019ll have to take a break and try to assimilate all those \u201cfacts\u201d before continuing my supposedly \u201cguiding\u201d contract. I don\u2019t want to lose the trail.\nby Andrex on March 23rd, 2017, 12:14 pm\nEven after a good night sleep, I find that my worry has not disappear when I come back to the fact that an electron is a little magnet and that the \u201cflat\u201d universe is negative.\nBut being \u201csmall magnets\u201d, the electron has a positive and a negative pole; which, somehow, balances that \u201cflat\u201d space and, definitively, relates to our electromagnetic universe. That \u201cfact\u201d being in \u201cequilibrium\u201d, I suddenly imagine the electrons around a nucleus forming an atom.\nI was seeing the \u201clittle magnets\u201d orienting their \u201cnegative end\u201d toward the positive protons of the nucleus, the neutrons being neutral. In that position, all \u201clittle magnets\u201d where orienting their positive end toward the exterior of the atom.\nAnd then, I saw another atom approaching the one I was looking. It also had all its positive ends toward its exterior; so there was no way that those two atoms could prevent repulsing one another. The question became, how can atoms rejoin to produce molecules?\nI had to make a drawing of small magnets of two atoms when they are approaching each other\u2019s:\nand ask myself: How can those magnets bind together when they should repulse each other?\nSo I started searching:\nI found few info related to this \u201cbinding\u201d that didn\u2019t involve the \u201cforce\u201d concept.\n1) The mass of the atom is a concentrated point of positive charge. This justified the idea of a nuclear atom with a dense center of positive charge and mass.\n2) The collective action of the positively charged nucleus is to hold the electrically negative charged electrons in their orbits about the nucleus.\n3) Neutrons are electrically neutral, but contribute to the mass of a nucleus to nearly the same extent as the protons.\nThese three info give us access to an explication for accretion of atoms to form new elements or even new molecules without the magical concept of \u201cforces\u201d.\nBecause, saying that the mass of the atom is a concentrate of positive charge is not exact, since neutrons contribute to the mass of a nucleus a bit more than the protons; neutrons are a bit heavier.\nSo the positive charge of the protons does compensate for the negative charge of electrons , but the total mass of the nucleus is far greater than the added mass of the protons. Consequently, the \u201cdeformed space\u201d around a nucleus, in reality, extends a lot farther than the edge of the nucleus where is suppose to stop the \"magical nuclear force\". And that space, around a nucleus, is where we find the \u201celectronic cloud\u201d, or \u201cblurred electrons\u201d, orbiting. So why would orbiting electrons have a different \u201ccause\u201d than orbiting planets around the Sun, or the orbiting gases around a star, when the geometrical \u201cevent\u201d is exactly the same?\nOkay; we have to take electromagnetism in consideration. So let\u2019s do it:\nWe, then, have two atoms surrounded by a number of electron \u201cmagnets\u201d which all have their positive poles oriented toward the \u201coutside\u201d of the atom. We also have each atoms confined inside its own volume of deformed space that approach toward one another.\nSo when both space deformations touches, the normal \u201ctidal effect\u201d gets involved, which adds to the tendency for the merging of both atoms.\nTouching of both \u201celectronic clouds\u201d means that the valence shell of each atoms get in contact; and when that occurs, the \u201ctidal effect\u201d between the atoms space deformations assures the equilibrium or, if you prefer, the \u201cfilling\u201d of valence shells with mutual interacting electrons. Naturally, since electrons are \u201cblurred\u201d particles, the mutual interacting electrons are, in reality, mutual \u201cblurred\u201d energy. This process of equilibrium of \u201cblurred\u201d energy at valence shells, is what we call: the chemical properties of the atom.\nSo let\u2019s look at all the \"effects\" that are involved in the process. Positive protons \u201cattract\u201d the negative poles of the electrons; this is an effect of electromagnetism. On top of that we have the volume of deformed space around the nucleus which \u201ccontains\u201d, at its center, the atom kept in a single piece by polarization. And then we get two volumes of deformed space that merge together under the influence of the \u201ctidal effect\u201d. Furthermore, and not the least, both centers of gravity of the atoms merge into one single center of gravity of the formed new element or of the new molecule.\nAs for the \u201caligned\" electrons around the nucleus, we must add the fact that for a spin-dependent component, which relates to polarity, the binding effect is stronger for particles with their spins aligned than for those with their spins anti-aligned.\nSo, my last question is: Where do we need the magical concept of \u201cforces\u201d to explain nature?\nLet\u2019s try to clear our mind a bit:\nNotes on neutrinos:\n1) Observations of the cosmic microwave background suggest that neutrinos do not interact with themselves.\n2) Size of neutrino: The average neutrino size is 10^-35 meter of diameter (or electroweak characteristic = 10^-35 meter square which implies a \u201csurface particle\u201d).\n3) Supernova: The number of neutrinos counted was estimated to be nearly all of the total energy of the supernova.\n4) Whereas photons, emitted from the solar core, may require 40,000 years to diffuse to the outer layers of the Sun, neutrinos, generated in stellar fusion reactions at the core, cross this distance practically unimpeded at nearly the speed of light.\n5) Sometime (but rarely) when a neutrino collides with an atom, the nucleus decays and the neutrino transforms itself into a Muon (observed by Tcherenkov radiation).\n6) The easiest way to perceive a neutrino is to see it as an electron that has lost its electric charge.\nThese 6 \u201cfacts\u201d, about neutrinos, have to be acceptable in \"a projection of neutrinos\" as the Big-bang particle in motion during the \"radiating period\" observed by Plank satellite before inflation (between 10^-43 sec and 10^-36 sec).\nNumber 1-2-3 and 4 are perfectly adapted to that Big bang process; number 5 and 6 install a direct relation between neutrinos and electrons, which adds to notable information.\nThe following graphic would then represent the first three successive events that had been manifested at the end of inflation, when all particles and anti-particles were present in our, now transformed, \u201celectromagnetic universe\u201d.\nWe mustn't forget that, basically, in the \"space\" aspect, the \"expansion\" process is energetic, while the \"contraction\" process is \"passively geometric\". But in the \"material\" aspect, which appeared during the third event, electromagnetism becomes energetically polarized.\nCould it be possible that this \"energetically polarized\" evolution was the process of joining \"energetic motion\" to \"passive geometry? The result could be what we observe as the \"spin\" of a particle, and since spin is related to electromagnetism... I'll have to work on that possibility very soon. If something comes out of it, I'll come back to you.\nOn the other hand, we still mustn't stop doubting the exactitude of all this opinion. There are definitively errors in some interpretations. Which doesn't mean that they cannot be corrected without transforming completely the opinion.\nThis morning, while reading things on the NASA site web, I started thinking of electromagnetic energy. The result is the following:\nHere are the official info:\na) In physics, electromagnetic radiation refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.\nb) The energy of an individual photon is quantized and is greater for photons of higher frequency. A single gamma ray photon, for example, might carry ~100,000 times the energy of a single photon of visible light.\nc) The energy in electromagnetic waves is sometimes called radiant energy.\nd) In physics, and in particular as measured by radiometry, radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic and gravitational radiation.\ne) Because electromagnetic (EM) radiation can be conceptualized as a stream of photons, radiant energy can be viewed as photon energy. Alternatively, EM radiation can be viewed as an electromagnetic wave, which carries energy in its oscillating electric and magnetic fields.\nf) EM radiation can have various frequencies.\ng) In the photon picture, the energy carried by each photon is proportional to its frequency.\nh) In physics, intensity is the power transferred per unit area,\nI) Energy density is the amount of energy stored in a given system or region of space per unit volume or mass, though the latter is more accurately termed specific energy\nJ) Energy per unit volume has the same physical units as pressure,\nSo; what can we understand out of all this?\nFor myself, I get a lot more mixed up than informed.\nSo I\u2019ll do as usual and decorticate \u201cfacts\u201d.\n1) Energy per unit volume has the same physical units as pressure.\nBecause of this, I\u2019ll simply consider energy as \u201cpressure\u201d.\n2) Energy density is the amount of energy stored in a given system or region of space per unit volume.\nBut since electromagnetic waves are \u201copen\u201d, I\u2019ll consider the energy \u201cinside\u201d those \"open\" waves as the energy of the whole universe to which it\u2019s open.\n3) EM radiation can have various frequencies.\nI\u2019ll accept that since it\u2019s observed.\n4) In physics, electromagnetic radiation refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons)\u2026\nSo I will consider all this as photon energy.\nNow let\u2019s look at what I consider as problematic affirmations:\n1) The energy of an individual photon is quantized and is greater for photons of higher frequency.\nBut then, How come do all photons travel at one single speed?\n2) A single gamma ray photon, for example, might carry ~100,000 times the energy of a single photon of visible light.\nSo what kind of energy are we talking about? If it\u2019s kinetic energy, it cannot differ because of the invariant light speed of a photon.\n3) In physics, and in particular as measured by radiometry, radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic and gravitational radiation.\nAnd since gravitation doesn\u2019t radiate any energy\u2026\n4) In the photon picture, the energy carried by each photon is proportional to its frequency.\nThere\u2019s something fishy here. We\u2019ll see about it.\nLet\u2019s try to solve the problems by describing frequency, in my own view.\nLet\u2019s dribble a basketball and since energy is pressure, let\u2019s dribble in applying always an even 50 pounds pressure (push) on the ball.\nWhen we dribble giving the rebound of the ball a length of 10 feet, the frequency of \u201cthuds\u201d from the ground are twice as less frequent than if we left 5 feet of rebound to the ball. Evidently, our 50 pounds pressure on the ball stays the same. And we can bring down the rebound\u2019s length to one feet without changing the pressure; but then the frequency will augment proportionally to the length accessible to the ball. So the shorter the accessible length for the ball, the more a frequency increases when pressure is constant.\nWhen we transfer this example to electromagnetic wavelengths, we should have exactly the same results; which means that even if the frequency is augmented, the energy of the \u201cpressure\u201d is constant. We can even say that the frequency augments because the pressure is constant while the space is decreased. This describes exactly the situation of wavelengths frequencies that decrease because the expansion of \"space\" increases the wavelength. In the case of a photon or a wavelength, the \"pressure\" is the \"intrinsic\" energy of the photon or the wavelength.\nAnd that also explains why photons, whatever the frequency, possess always the same energy that makes them travel at light speed. Furthermore, this energy, that a photon possess, can\u2019t be anything else than kinetic energy, since all a photon does is: go at light speed.\nConsidering this \u201cfact\u201d, and joining it to the \u201cfact\u201d that electromagnetic waves are \u201copen\u201d to the \u201cuniversal space\u201d, there is no way we can refuse that the universal energy is kinetic and, consequently, expansion of space manifests itself at light speed just as the photon does.\nSo our \u201cproblematic\u201d info are solve as the following:\n1) The frequency in an electromagnetic wave is not related to the energy of the photon but to its wavelength.\n2) The gamma ray photon carries the same amount of energy than the visible light photon.\n3) There\u2019s no gravitational radiation, since gravitation is a \u201cnon-energetic\u201d geometrical consequence.\n4) This has the same response as number for 1)\nThere could be some objection to all this, but in my understanding, there shouldn't.\nBut that was this morning; and the reason was that yesterday I worked on a previous affirmation of mine.\nby Andrex on March 23rd, 2017, 11:14 am\nI escape a problem by rapidly saying: \u201cBut being \u201csmall magnets\u201d, the electron has a positive and a negative pole; which, somehow, balances that \u201cflat\u201d space and, definitively, relates to our electromagnetic universe.\u201d\nI felt bad when I wrote it, and feel bad every time I read it. So what is my problem?\nMy problem is that I escaped the problem with a \u201csuperficial\u201d explanation that doesn\u2019t really explain anything. So I've got to come back to it.\nWe have \u201cflat\u201d space where neutrinos travels with \u201clittle magnet-electrons\u201d. Which makes our universe electromagnetic, undoubtedly. But, through that \u201cflat\u201d electromagnetic \u201cspace\u201d, can also travel electromagnetic waves.\nWe know that those waves where first produced by decaying top/antiTop quarks and the following decays during inflation.\nWe also know that these waves are subjected to expansion and to gravitation. Which means that they travel all through existent \u201cspace\u201d, either \u201cflat\u201d or \u201caltered\u201d.\nFinally we know that those waves, called \u201celectromagnetic radiation\u201d, refers to the waves of the \u201celectromagnetic field\u201d. But we previously found that this electromagnetic field is the whole universe.\nThe problem is evident; because\n1) it\u2019s not the whole universe that is an electromagnetic waves; and\n2) the whole universe is not full of electromagnetic waves. So please, honorable brain of mine, KISS as much as possible, thank you.\nAs a wave, light is characterized by a velocity (the speed of light), wavelength, and frequency. As particles, light is a stream of photons. We just found out that the frequency is related to the wavelength and not to the energy of the photon or the electromagnetic wave.\nSo let\u2019s grab an electromagnetic wave and study it:\nA transverse wave is a moving wave that consists of oscillations occurring perpendicular (or right angled) to the direction of energy transfer. Light is an example of a transverse wave. There are two independent directions in which wave motion can occur (up-down and right-left). In general a wave can be two-dimensional. So electromagnetic waves are two-dimensional transverse waves. The two components of an electromagnetic wave, the electric and magnetic field components, are shown in the previous electromagnetic wave diagram.\nIn the diagram, the electric field is in a vertical plane (Z axis) and the magnetic field in a horizontal plane (Y axis). If we refer to the event at 10^-36 sec, when the \"surface\" gluon particle intruded in our universe, it seems that it joined perpendicularly to the existing \"surface\" neutrino which adopted electrons. Both surface particles originated from the Planck epoch, before the universe became a \u201cvolume\u201d; which means: when the universe was two dimensional.\nFrom the viewpoint of an electromagnetic wave traveling forward, the electric field might be oscillating up and down, while the magnetic field oscillates right and left. This picture can be rotated with the electric field oscillating right and left and the magnetic field oscillating down and up (either way, there's no up and down or left and right in space; but both are perpendicular to each other). This is a different solution that is traveling in the same direction. This arbitrariness in the orientation with respect to propagation direction is known as polarization. On a quantum level, it is described as photon polarization. The direction of the polarization is defined as the direction of the electric field.\nThe wave front of electromagnetic waves emitted from a point source (such as a lightbulb) is a circle.\nA part of the wave front, when directly entering \u201caltered space\u201d would change shape and go toward the center of gravity; the rest would only deviate producing what we call gravitational lenses.\nElectromagnetic waves are produced whenever charged particles are accelerated, and these waves can subsequently interact with other charged particles. Would this mean that \u201cacceleration\u201d in involved when particles decay? Acceleration would then be the \u201cvibration\u201d producing the electromagnetic wave. But added info say that: Any electric charge that accelerates, or any changing magnetic field, produces electromagnetic radiation. And we know that a gluon is a magnetic field that changes in Quarks fields. Which brings us back to inflation period.\nIn technical terms, QED can be described as a perturbation theory of the electromagnetic quantum vacuum. Which is what we found as electromagnetic waves being \u201cperturbations (vibrations) of the electromagnetic universe.\nSo we\u2019re not so \u201coff the track\u201d after all. Even though I didn't advance at all in my positive and negative poles of the electron problem. I guess I'll come back to it someday. For now, I'm satisfied by the small progress made.\nMy Sunday\u2019s usual mind rambling.\n1) Expansion explication?\nA funny idea came to me this morning.\nLet\u2019s suppose that all neutrinos in the universe had adopted a \u201clittle magnet\u201d electron and had distributed them in a way that all negative poles where facing each other, doing the same for the positive poles. All \u201clittle magnets\u201d would repel each other and would \u201ccreate space\u201d between them, just as expansion does. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s what provokes expansion (although you never know when scientist can accept \u201crepulsive\u201d gravitation) but such a situation could have participated in the inflation period when electrons appeared.\n2) Helicity and chirality:\nThe helicity of a particle is right-handed if the direction of its spin is the same as the direction of its motion.\nAs for massless particles, as the photon and the gluon, chirality is the same as helicity; and a massless particle spins in the same direction along its axis of motion regardless of point of view of the observer.\nA massless particle moves with the speed of light, so a real observer (who must always travel at less than the speed of light) cannot be in any reference frame where the particle appears to reverse its relative direction, meaning that all real observers see the same chirality. Because of this, the direction of spin of massless particles is not affected by a Lorentz boost (change of viewpoint) in the direction of motion of the particle, and the sign of the projection (helicity) is fixed for all reference frames.\nSo it's now confirmed: photon and gluon particles possess a right-handed helicity.\nWe know that neutrinos have a left-handed helicity.\nWe also know that gluons and neutrinos are \"two dimensional\" (bi-dimensional) particles; they are \u201csurface\u201d particles. Even if the spin is not exactly the rotation of the particles around its axis, part of the spin characteristic is exactly that. So let\u2019s draw them:\nWe then have a left-handed helicity with rotation perpendicular to direction, which means rotating in a different direction than the axis of direction. We find here, a definition of two different position/rotation in regard to the axis of direction; which can describe the difference between helicity and chirality versus direction of the motion for the neutrino.\nGluons:\nHere we have a right-handed helicity, with rotation in the same direction of the motion. Furthermore, we see that the two position/rotation are in the axis of the motion, which identify chirality as the same as helicity.\nNow let\u2019s see what happens when we join them together as we said they did at 10^-36 sec after time = zero.\nPersonally, I\u2019d say that the result is starting to look as the components of an electromagnetic wave; wouldn\u2019t you? Specially with the half spin of an electron which will be adopted by neutrinos.\nIn most circumstances, two left-handed fermions interact more strongly than right-handed or opposite-handed fermions, implying that the universe has a preference for left-handed chirality (represented here by our neutrino surface that adopts electrons), which violates a symmetry of the other \u201cforces\u201d of nature.\nThe general principle is often referred to by the name chiral symmetry. The rule is absolutely valid in the classical mechanics of Newton and Einstein, but results from quantum mechanical experiments show a difference in the behavior of left-chiral versus right-chiral subatomic particles.\nLet\u2019s come back to consider the Planck\u2019s units we worked with.\nWe said that at the time 10^-43 sec, the universe appeared with a diameter of 10^-35 meter. This simply means that it took 10^-43 sec. to \u201cfabricate\u201d a 10^-35 meter universe.\nBut it also gives us a \u201cspeed\u201d similar to our \u201cmiles per hour\u201d; which would be: 10^-35 meter per 10^-43 sec. This \u201cspeed\u201d brings to my mind, the question:\nI wonder if the speed of 10^-35 m/10^-43 sec as any relation to the speed of light?\nI surely cannot make the calculation myself; maybe some of you can; but I, just as surely, can estimate and compare the two numbers in question.\nWe know that 10^-35 meter equals 10^-33 centimeter.\nso, from -43 to -33 means a difference of 10 zeros between both time/length numbers.\nIn our description of the Big bang at 10^-43 sec, we said that a fast counter clock wise rotating surface with a diameter of 10^-33 centimeter appeared, split by the middle, disappeared and neutrinos where projected in all directions producing the first volume of \u201cspace\u201d with a diameter of 10^-33 centimeter.\nThe splitting of the surface that first appeared projected half of itself in our universe while the other half went back to Planck\u2019s epoch (status) rotating clock wise (the splitting event projection reversed the rotation). If we apply the same splitting event to the \u201cspeed\u201d we designated at the Big bang, out of the ten zeros, five of them went back into the Planck\u2019s epoch and five where projected in our expanding universe.\nIt also indicate that half of the \"speed\" energy (kinetic) produced during Planck's epoch was projected to create our three dimensional universe (volume). The other half of the energy pulled together (origin of the topology of the gluon particle) and went back, rotating clock wise, to Planck's epoch, continuing to augment its energy and its surface until it reached a diameter of 10^-33 centimeter in order to reappear in our universe. Thus making the amount of energy inside \"matter\" a lot greater than the one existing in \"flat\" space. It also identify the energy inside \"matter\" (mass energy) as kinetic energy and, by the same time, the right handed helicity of the gluon particle.\nWhat I note is that \u201clight speed\u201d being a little less than 300,000 km per second possess five zeros. Only people capable of doing the calculation of the \u201cspeed\u201d at the Big bang could say if there\u2019s a relation to this observation of the split 10 zeros.\nAnother point that tickles my mind is to calculate the volume of a universe that would have a diameter of 10^-33 centimeter. What would be the cubic size of that volume?\nBut that will be enough \u201cmind rambling\u201d for this Sunday; I\u2019ve got to prepare myself for being serious tomorrow.\n-But what about \"Time\"?\n-Sorry about that; I was \"mind rambling\".\nJust a small remark:\nPostby Andrex on March 23rd, 2017, 11:14 am\n\u201cBecause, saying that the mass of the atom is a concentrate of positive charge is not exact, since neutrons contribute to the mass of a nucleus a bit more than the protons; neutrons are a bit heavier\u2026So the positive charge of the protons does compensate for the negative charge of electrons, but the total mass of the nucleus is far greater than the added mass of the protons. \u201c\nSo if this is the case, it would mean that all our measurement of \u201cmass\u201d are not exact. Could that be the explanation to the unobserved \u201cmass\u201d which made science imagine \u201cdark matter\u201d?\nMy last question was \"dumb\" because we do not add all proton mass to know the mass of Earth; it's calculated with Kepler's law.\nWhich means that we could verify the mass of the Moon if we could add the mass of all atoms that compose it and compare with the result from Kepler's law. If it was possible to find the number of atoms of the Moon; which I doubt.\nby Andrex on April 1st, 2017, 3:04 pm\nI had a funny experience today. I received an E-mail saying that a certain science forum, from which I exited last year, was missing me; so I went back and put two new posts.\nBoth posts where deleted because the were qualified as \"allegations\". In another E-mail, I was asked: \"please post the peer reviewed reference that makes these claims that you have posted above.\"\nThe said allegations where the basic metric of the universe of 10^-35 meter which I had named as Planck's length. So the references asked where: \"Which scientists say that the basic metric of the universe is Planck's length?\".\nI simply \"unloged\" myself from the forum. But then I received another E-mail stating a reply in the thread I was watching. It describes perfectly the kind of logic used in science to make deductions.\nHere is what it said:\nWhat is space made of?\" is a very tricky question\u2026it is created by the relationship of matter to itself. If we have one single star with no others around it, space is wherever the matter from the star is not. Without the star for a reference, there is no space.\nSo with a single star, you have space all around it; but if you eliminate the star, all the space around it falls into nonexistence. That is nonsense. I agree that it disappears, which means that we cannot have a reference to compare it; but it\u2019s far off from \u201cfalling into nonexistence\u201d. Specially since the lonely star itself occupy space. Which means that \"space\" is there even before the star occupy it. Another way to look at it is that space has to exist in order that stars \"form\".\nIn fact you can even measure any distance of it, if you use the basic metric of the universe 10^-35 meter. That basic metric is already a measure. You'll even be able to measure all of the universe if you measure until you get to a \u201cno-space\u201d status; where you\u2019ll get the measure you are looking for.\nIt is not necessarily made of anything. For a single photon to reach the speed of light, the whole universe would need to turn into that one photon.\nWhich is exactly what we came to accept previously here, in this discussion. It is agreed that we couldn't do otherwise.\n\u201cBecause energy is finite and the speed of light needs to be kept constant for fields to exist,\nThe field we talk about, here, is simply the \u201cuniversal field\u201d.\n\u201cthere is time dilation and space contraction for material systems moving at relativistic speeds\nThis is an affirmation, which I think is based on maths and that everybody believes without calculating it; but we have to re-check it with logic.\nIf a distance is contracting, at constant speed, it will take fewer and fewer time to cover that distance.\nSo when distance contracts, times contracts just the same; whatever the maths.\nFinally, it is science that is a \"very tricky question\".\nAnd we are very lucky to be able, here in personal theories, to discuss on notions that are \"freely\" deleted by other science forums.\nby Andrex on April 3rd, 2017, 12:48 pm\nBig-bang + expansion\nOne question I keep asking myself:\nDoes light-speed results of a physical constraint or an energetic constraint?\nIt seems to me that it cannot be a physical constraint, simply because since our universe is \u201cflat\u201d, there\u2019s no possible physical, at least geometrical, constraint that could be implied to the speed of a massless \u201cwhatever\u201d.\nAs for the \u201cweight\u201d of energy itself, it becomes difficult to even consider it, since we cannot define energy before it is applied on matter. Which means that we don\u2019t know what energy is exactly. Knowing what energy does, does not tell us what it is. Some of us even think that without matter there\u2019s no energy. Steven Hawking and others thinks that there\u2019s as much positive energy as negative energy which, to them, means that the total energy of the universe is zero. But which to me, doesn\u2019t mean at all, that the universe has zero energy; in fact, it would mean that the universe has twice as much energy as its positive energy.\nBesides that, we also know that energy transforms itself in all kind of different energy.\nSo it leaves us only one possibility, which says that: since kinetic energy provokes motion, it is the amount of the total kinetic energy, disposable in our universe, that establishes the constraint on light-speed. In other words, light-speed cannot be surpassed because there\u2019s no enough (or more) energy in the universe to do it.\nThis last assessment confirms that \u201cflat space\u201d is \u201cmotioned\u201d by kinetic energy directed \u201ctoward every points\u201d at light-speed (expansion), while \u201caltered space\u201d is kinetic energy \u201ctoward one single point\u201d (gravitation) that was added to existing kinetic energy in our expanding universe, sometime after the Big bang. And that was what started inflation (of space) at 10^-36 sec.\nFurthermore, since all kinds of different energy is observed exclusively inside \"altered space\", it means that the kinetic energy devoted to expansion doesn't transform itself. Which leaves us with the problem of \"accelerating\" expansion. If this is proven a \"fact\", it would mean that kinetic energy is, somehow, ejected from \"altered space\" into \"flat space\" and makes irrelevant any sort of non-observable \"dark energy\".\nSo, at 10^-43 sec after time = zero, the total kinetic energy disposable \u201cdecided\u201d that light speed would be: 299 792 458 meter / second. Too bad that Planck\u2019s epoch didn\u2019t last a bit longer; at least to develop enough energy to reach 300 000 meter/second; which would have simplify the calculations quite a bit.\nThis means that one second after Big bang, the diameter of our universe was 299 792 km. We will take the liberty to use 300 000 Km as a round number (I know; it shows laziness. So what? I\u2019ll assume it).\nAfter one minute, the universe was 18 000 000 km which is about 1500 times the diameter of our planet Earth and about 1/8 of the distance between Earth and the Sun.\nAfter an hour, our universe was 108 000 000 km which is 42 000 000 km LESS than the distance Earth/Sun (Astronomical Unit = 150 000 000Km).\nAt the end of the first day (24 hrs) the universe was a \u201cballoon\u201d with a diameter of 2 592 000 000km (17, 3 AU); which is 3 astronomical unit LESS than the distance from the Sun to Pluto.\nAt this \u201cspeed\u201d, it took about 2 years for our universe to get as big as the actual \u201creach\u201d of the Sun\u2019s gravity; which lies about halfway to the nearest star \u201cProxima Centauri\u201d (in fact PC is at 4,25 light-years away). By the way, this suggest that gravity is not universal; which is to my liking.\nOur galaxy is estimates having between 100 000 and 180 000 light-years of diameter (how precise can we get?); which means that our universe took at least 100 000 years to reach its smallest estimated size.\nThis also means that the size of \u201cspace\u201d (universe) when the CMB began, was near 4 times the smallest estimation of the size of our galaxy.\nWe then \u201csee\u201d that when observable light started to \u201cilluminate\u201d the universe, \u201cspace\u201d had a dimension 4 times as big as our galaxy.\nAnother way to conceive the importance of these sizes is if we accept that one astronomical unit (150 million kilometers) is worth one dollar, the size of the universe at CMB was worth 6,320,400,000AUs X 4 = 25 2 81 600 000 dollars; that is 25 billion dollars (and remember; these are dollars that each are worth 150 000 000 pennies).\nSize wise the volume of the universe had a diameter of 25 billion times more than 150 000 000 kilometers; and then light was able to \u201cflare\u201d at the same speed as expansion. This also tells us that CMB is a lightwall that prevents us to \"see\" behind it with \"visual\" telescope. In fact, actually, even Hubble's telescope technology cannot \"see\" CMB.\nInside that \u201cspace\u201d volume, had develop all components of what we actually observe in our universe; and it had taken 380 000 years to do it.\nSince then, the universe continued to expand at light-speed; and today, the \u201cballoon\u201d has a calculated (and measurable) radius of 13, 77 billion light-years; which gives the total \u201cballoon\u201d a diameter of 27,54 billion light-years, plus an additional length of 380 000 light-years behind CMB.\nWhatever added dimension given to the universe seems to me only \u201cbla-bla\u201d based on calculated imaginations.\nBut, as I usually say: I could be wrong.\nby Inchworm on April 3rd, 2017, 1:48 pm\nAndrex wrote: After an hour, our universe was 108 000 000 km which is 42 000 000 km LESS than the distance Earth/Sun\nYou made a mistake since it takes only around eight minutes for the light from the sun to reach the earth. After one hour, google's calculator says light has traveled 1,080,000,000 km, which is in fact about seven times more than the distance earth/sun.\nIf the gravity from each one of the stars was not affecting the others stars in the whole galaxy, there wouldn't be any galaxy.",

        "raw_content": "How To Explain A Gap On Your CV\nIt\u2019s everybody\u2019s worst nightmare when they are asked the question: Why is there a gap on your CV? I have spoken to many people who are going for interviews and absolutely dread being asked about periods of time when they weren\u2019t in work.\nHowever people may have a gap on their CV for a variety of reasons. This can be due to travelling, poor health, family reasons or perhaps you were made redundant. Admittedly there can be a tendency amongst some employers to overlook candidates that have noticeable periods of time without work.\nPersonally, I am always more interested in the abilities and characteristics of an individual \u2013 if they haven\u2019t been in work for a while but have the quality my company needs, I will hire them.\nHowever as a candidate you do need to be prepared to answer questions on any gaps in your CV. It is essential to be honest and up front. Trying to lie or bluff your way through isn\u2019t the way to do things and to be perfectly honest, most good hiring managers will see straight through you. Explain whatever circumstances there were.\nBy showing off your knowledge of both the company and the industry, you are essentially telling the interviewer that you are still up to date with what is happening. As somebody who has interviewed a lot of people over the years, I can tell you that a candidate who knows the latest news and trends in their industry gets a big tick next to their name.\nIf you are struggling to get through to the interview stage because of the gaps on your CV, think outside of the box. A short period of voluntary work always looks good and it will give you something recent to put on there. Consider taking relevant courses as well \u2013 this shows you are an ambitious individual who is always looking to improve their skill set.\nExplain the skills you did pick up while you have been out of employment. Many people think that offices and classrooms are the only place where you learn things but this simply isn\u2019t true. For example if you have spent time away looking after your children, focus on the strengths you needed such as discipline, organization and the ability to multi-task. If you have travelled, you may have picked up international knowledge which would be useful for a business looking to increase their global presence.\nYou may have decided to change careers and sometimes people try and airbrush what they have done in another industry. But every sector has transferable skills \u2013 what you need to is explain exactly what yours are and how they will help in the job you are applying for.\nAll the signs in the recruitment industry are currently pointing to an increase in talent attraction. The opportunities for candidates are now there, but it also means they need to work a lot harder to stand out. Being out of work for a while may seem like a hindrance to some people, but if you are positive, proactive and willing to put the effort in, this shouldn\u2019t be the case.",

You have a control room with a guy sitting in there who is operating the plant remotely. It\u2019s a broad portfolio,\u201d Brockett says.\n\u201cFrom field instrumentation and the sensors that detect all of the parameters such as pressure level, temperature, quality of the process, is all built into the control system. We provide all of those transmitters into the centralised control system. Above that we have advanced process control and software that sits on top of that. They enable operations to optimise their facility.\nHe says that the company\u2019s high-growth regions are India, China, and ASEAN. The company also services clients across Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.\nIn New Zealand its main focus is within the dairy industry, while in Australia it is heavily involved with the mineral process as well as the oil and gas industries.\n\u201cWe\u2019re actually at a point of change in the industry,\u201d Brockett says, in reflection of new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) coming into industrial firms.\n\u201cProcess industries have traditionally been very cautious about how they adopt technology. If you put a new technology in your plant and it stops working, it\u2019s costing $1-3 million per day, or if it causes an accident it could be catastrophic.\u201d\nWith that in mind, Brockett says the industry must move cautiously but with the introduction of Industry 4.0, progression will go a little faster.\nWhile it may not directly affect control systems, it does leverage the data from those systems.\n\u201cThe amount of data you get out of a process plant every second, let alone every year is mind-blowing. How do you use that data to improve your operation?\u201d\n\u201cApplying knowledge of the industry with that data to provide information that enables the operation to perform better is the crux of the issue.\nAs the use of data grows, cybersecurity must go hand-in-hand. In fact, one of the reasons Industry 4.0 isn\u2019t moving very fast is because of security concerns, Brockett says.\n\u201cThere are generally several layers of firewalls around control systems. Although you might have data flowing up from the control systems, if you don\u2019t have anything flowing down it\u2019s not so bad.\u201d\n\u201cIf you send information to someone accidentally, then they\u2019ve got that information. But if they can send information to your control system and take something offline, that could be catastrophic. Architecture is very important.\u201d\nHoneywell\u2019s Industrial Cyber Security Centre of Excellence is a major asset to Asia Pacific, particularly for access to local experts.\n\u201cWith Industry 4.0, cyber is going to become important as we move forward and that\u2019s one of the key takeaways,\u201d Brockett concludes.",

        "raw_content": "When once Moscow and Beijing had much in common, now they may be diverging again. Toa55\nFrom the Archive is a blog series which republishes some older pieces of work from key IMSISS staff to showcase the interesting and thought provoking work that they do. In this article from 2015 Dr Neil Munro looks at relations between Russia and China.\nThis blog post was first published on the 9th February 2015 by The Conversation. Please visit: https://theconversation.com/russias-borders-chinese-sympathy-for-moscow-will-only-stretch-so-far-37243 for the original article.\nBy Neil Munro, University of Glasgow\nThis week our series on Russia\u2019s relations with its neighbours reaches China, Moscow\u2019s one-time great communist rival with whom it found much in common in the opening years of the 21st century. Neil Munro, a specialist in Chinese politics, finds that in light of the Ukraine crisis, these interests may have begun to diverge.\nRelations between the Russians and the Chinese were certainly not always cordial in the deepest days of communism, but most disputes between them were resolved by the time they signed the Treaty of Friendship in 2001.\nAs well as resolving numerous bilateral issues, the treaty made explicit that there was Sino-Russian agreement on key principles of foreign policy. They both believed in the pursuit of a \u201cmulti-polar world,\u201d the leading role of the UN Security Council in resolving international conflicts and non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.\nThese provisions partly reflected both countries\u2019 concerns about NATO\u2019s unilateral intervention in the Balkans in 1999 \u2013 and, more generally, Russia\u2019s anxiety about NATO expansion, which it saw not as uniting Europe but moving the dividing line closer to its borders.\nRussia finds itself in a broadly similar position in 2015 as the Ukraine crisis drags on, but China\u2019s position is much more equivocal.\nThe Russian dimension\nFrom the Russian point of view, the war in Ukraine is a struggle for power, not territory. Russia is anxious about having NATO forces within 600km of Moscow, even if an invasion is surely extremely unlikely, and harbours a sense of victimhood arising from the feeling of having given up too much ground at the time of the Soviet collapse.\nRussia also worries that the Ukraine-EU free trade agreement could see EU products traded in Ukraine with low or zero tariffs entering its own economic space across the long and porous border and undermining its efforts to nurture its own farm and industrial sectors.\nPutin\u2019s preferred option is a united but friendly Ukraine, but the continuing violence in Donbass makes it less and less likely with each passing day. Though time will tell if new efforts by Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande might find a way out of the crisis, broadly the outcome hinges on whether Russia\u2019s elites keep backing Putin and whether Ukraine\u2019s elites eventually concede that a compromise leading to the dilution of their sovereignty best serves their long-term interests. Putin is betting heavily that they will.\nThe Chinese dimension\nThe key to understanding China\u2019s position is to realise that its relations with the US and EU are strong and have been getting stronger. These relations are based on trade and investment. China\u2019s volume of trade with the EU is six times greater than its trade with Russia.\nCultural and educational exchanges with the western world are also extremely rich. China\u2019s intellectual and business elite is increasingly proficient in English and other European languages. In many ways, China displays the conservativism of a country that has already \u201cmade it\u201d in the global economy. In the current oil price war, China is using the opportunity to build up strategic reserves while Russia is feeling the pinch.\nAnd like the EU, China requires a stable environment in which to prosper. Unlike Russia, which has thrown away the rulebook of international trade in response to sanctions, China feels able to compete within the existing framework.\nAs a signal that China may be willing to renew the ties it developed with the pro-Russian ancien regime in Ukraine, the premier Li Keqiang met with Ukraine\u2019s president, Petro Poroshenko, at the recent Davos summit of world economic leaders.\nHanging by a Westphalian thread?\nRussia and China share in common an agreement on what might be called an \u201cevolutionary approach\u201d to human rights. Essentially this means they recognise the right of authoritarian regimes like theirs to do what it takes to stay in power.\nThe doctrine of non-interference in other countries\u2019 internal affairs, which both countries signed up to in their 2001 treaty, is based on what is known in international relations as the Westphalian notion of sovereignty. But Russian actions in Ukraine threaten to undermine this shared view.\nWhat remains in place is Russia and China\u2019s common understanding of the nature of \u201ccolour revolutions\u201d (such as Ukraine\u2019s orange one) as attempts by the West to destabilise regimes it doesn\u2019t like. Russia was not the aggressor in Ukraine in the eyes of many Chinese people, as the US is assumed to have orchestrated Euromaidan, just as it supposedly tried to do in Hong Kong. This is likely to explain China\u2019s neutral position over Ukraine more than anything else.\nBut as much as China also sees Moscow as a useful counterbalance to the West, there are definite limits to its sympathy. Chinese elites may perceive that Russia\u2019s troubles are to some extent of its own making, and it is certainly not in China\u2019s interest to enter a new Cold War with the US, never mind the entire Western world. From this distance, the Sino-Russian 2001 agreement looks like a recent high point in their relations.\nTo read previous instalments from our Russia\u2019s borders series, click here.\nNeil Munro, Lecturer in Chinese Politics, University of Glasgow",

        "raw_content": "by Cosima Rainer\nArt gallery exhibition spaces are usually calm and quiet. Metaphorically, however, there are actually multiple soundtracks running inside them. In the foreground, there is the music of the artworks. This is a sound that tells stories about the exhibiting artists, about formal themes and special concerns or feelings. Then there is the soundtrack playing in the background. This second sound comes from art\u2019s socioeconomic framework; it is what one might call the constant hum of the operating system. It is often overlooked, because it has been naturalized for so long. But without this institutional basso ostinato, art today is virtually inconceivable. It is hardly surprising, then, that when attempts are made to grapple reflexively with the institution of the visual arts and its power structure, which find expression primarily in spaces and their creative use, real sound often plays an important role; and not just because, as acoustics, sound reflects and thematizes the space, but also because invisible social conditions can be made audible in the space, because attention can be drawn to them through sound. Thus, this chapter focuses on a use of sound that seeks in various ways to demystify art\u2019s internal conventions and connections by strategically causing its invisible or hidden framework conditions to reverberate. The examples range from experimental compositions of the early 1950s to the institutional critique of the 1990s. In this context too, John Cage\u2019s 1952 composition 4\u203233\u2033, which consists of three movements with the indication tacet (it is silent), may be seen as a pioneering work. Another way of making space audible is illustrated by Alvin Lucier\u2019s work I Am Sitting in a Room (1969). Lucier made a tape recording of the sentence of the title, which describes the action, then played it back and recorded it again, and so on. As the cycle was repeated, the original sentence was eventually completely reshaped by the harmonic and resonant frequencies of the space. Thus, with I Am Sitting in a Room, Lucier thematizes not only the transition between language and music but also the site itself and its institutional dynamics. In her work Birdcalls (1972/81), Louise Lawler exploits the feminist potential of sound and its potential as an instrument for the critique of institutions. As her point of departure, Lawler took her frustration with the dominance of male artists in the American museum world as well as with the fact that, in public spaces, women had to arm themselves with police whistles to protect themselves against sexual assault. From this she developed a sound piece in which the names of famous male artists are tweeted or chirped like bird calls. With these Birdcalls, the territorial conflicts of the art world and their gender-specific connotations become audible in a telling and symptomatic manner. Michael Asher\u2014in his exhibition at Claire Copley Gallery in Los Angeles in 1974\u2014took an approach that is much more visceral as well as much more straightforward than that of Lucier and Lawler. In order to modify the conditions of visibility and audibility in the gallery, he had the wall that separated the office from the exhibition spaces removed. The exhibition\u2019s visitors thus found themselves standing right in the office and were aggressively confronted with the daily business of the gallery and its conversations. The result was to make the social communications of the gallery owner, who, through her activity, plays an important role in defining art, the center of attention. Nearly twenty years later, other groups seem to have become decision-relevant. In Andrea Fraser\u2019s work Dinner Party (1992), dinner conversation after an exhibition opening at a midrange American museum is played back next to a painting from the collection. Fraser, who constantly thematizes the conflicting framework conditions of the art market and her own role within it, presents the sound that calls the tune in the background of an art world that is oriented around prestige.\nAlvin Lucier, I Am Sitting in a Room, 1969\nWilliam Furlong, Audio Arts, 1973\nDennis Oppenheim, Echo, 1973\nLouise Lawler, Birdcalls, 1972/1981\nAndrea Fraser, Dinner Party, 1992\nCarl Michael von Hausswolff, Mobile Unit for the Detection of Unknown Entities, 2001\u20132005\npreviously read texts\nGraphic Notation and Musical Graphics\nWorkdescriptions from other texts\nMobile Unit for the Detection of Unknown Entities\nWorks: Birdcalls, Dinner Party, Echo, I Am Sitting in a Room, Mobile Unit for the Detection of Unknown Entities\nPeople: Andrea Fraser, William Furlong, Carl Michael von Hausswolff, Louise Lawler, Alvin Lucier, Dennis Oppenheim\nSocialbodies: Audio Arts (Audio Arts Cassettes)\nList of all Relations in this Text\nFraser Andrea (Chap. ), Furlong William (Chap. ), Hausswolff Carl Michael von (Chap. ), Lawler Louise (Chap. ), Lucier Alvin (Chap. ), Oppenheim Dennis (Chap. )\nAudio Arts (Audio Arts Cassettes) (Chap. )\nBirdcalls (Chap. ), Dinner Party (Chap. ), Echo (Chap. ), I Am Sitting in a Room (Chap. ), Mobile Unit for the Detection of Unknown Entities (Chap. )\nno Keywords available\nTimespans",

It has become the site that really puts a better perspective on what it takes to run a music streaming empire. It is obvious that fewer people are buying compact this these days. It is hard to survive without streaming services if you work in music.\nThe good thing about this is that these artists are actually do earn more money because there is no physical product that they are selling. This gives them the ability to cut out record stores and manufacturing of discs that have to be shipped to storage.\nWithin five years of his time in spotlight Kendrick Lamar has grossed over $78 million dollars. The duo The Chainsmokers have only been in business for a couple of years and they have made close to $40 million dollars. These are staggering numbers, and it is true that these artists have multiple streams of revenue, but they are making a considerable amount from the music streaming.\nSpotify is not the only site that he is providing streaming services, but it is one of the most popular. This is one of the reasons why this site works so well for independent artists. It is true that an independent music artist could try to shop their music around to a variation of different streaming sites, but it makes much more sense for them to get connected to the most popular platform.\nSpotify has proven in recent years that it is the most popular platform for independent artists that are utilizing this site to boost their career will have a much better chance of getting exposed to a larger fanbase. The thing that most independent artist want is a fair return on investment for the music that they put out. Spotify is one of those streaming sites that is trying to work to make this fair trade of music and income possible.",

        "raw_content": "ENERGIZING AFRICA: THE PRIVATE SECTOR MODEL-PART 2\n\"Over 620 million Africans do not have access to modern energy. The region\u2019s energy deficit holds back the economic growth needed to create jobs and lift people out of poverty. Africa\u2019s leaders have no choice but to bridge the energy gap, urgently.\" - Koffi Annan, Chair Africa Progress Panel\nAs introduced in the previous post, the main limiting factor for private companies in the energy sector, specifically emerging social enterprises is the lack of access to finance and the related business advisory services.\nStarting with the latter, there is a massive gap in the market, where large consultancy firms are inaccessible to early and medium stage companies at market rate. Donor organizations should work with partners to promote and initialize more projects that offer business consultancy and potentially incubation to early stage clean energy companies. This would allow more small energy enterprises a better chance at providing services to those who desperately need them.\nWith respect to access to finance for clean energy Small and Medium Enterprises, commercial bank terms are punitive, grants are competitive and sometimes restrictive and the process and timescales involved suggest a business losing momentum in a fast-paced market. Research and Development funders are thin on the ground and though there are private investors flooding the market, most businesses will typically need initial financing and support to get investor ready. For these reasons, innovative funding models are required.\nIdeas like repayable grants offer more flexibility with little to no interest and funding for securitization would reduce risks for commercial loans which would be a game-changer. An example is the SIDA funded Loan Guarantee Fund that sought to underwrite commercial loans to small scale entrepreneurs. Notwithstanding the mixed success in terms of administration and thus re-payment, there were definite examples of instances where the funds made the difference in the viability of a business. Donors should look to understand the optimum conditions for these types of funding structures, by analyzing previous projects and primary data. Through research they could identify where these types of innovative financing structures could have the most impact and channel more funds there to encourage development.\nFinally, enabling government policy is crucial in stimulating more private sector actors. Many governments are rightly promoting entrepreneurship but this needs to extend beyond supporting small groups of youth and women. Let us take the example of mini-grids. There are indications that if an appropriate business model can be found, for example one that provides for lower tariffs to the poorest, then mini-grids have the potential to be life-changing.\nThe key is to attract enough players to enable a vibrant environment where potential solutions are quickly tested and competitive innovation encouraged. The Governments can help promote such an environment by addressing policy on grid-tie-in, net-metering, developing robust PPAs up to the inclusion and easing licensing and permitting requirements of small scale developers. Here, donors can also play a crucial role by leveraging expertise on advising governments and helping to shape policy towards the enabling environment. They could consider co-funding asset development, short term subsidies and performance based financing where appropriate.\nMobilizing the private sector may not seem like a radical approach and neither can it be applied universally in all contexts. However, the innovation comes in recognizing where and how we can shift the development implementation agenda towards a more commercially driven outlook that has proven sustainability.\nNote: This is the final part of the guest post introduced in Part 1 by MAKENA IRERI an Engineer, Energy professional and blogger.

A little bit about pumping\nTip # 9: Do more hands training\nPumping biceps\nOne of the most popular ways in the preparation of a training split is the integration of large and small muscle groups into traction or jumper days. As a rule, together they train the back \u2013 the biceps or the chest \u2013 the triceps, and for many athletes this combination gives a good result. However, there is an opinion that muscle groups that train in the second place, due to body fatigue, receive insufficient load, and therefore show a much smaller result in growth.\nOne way to correct this situation is to allocate a separate day for training your hands. In the absence of heavy presses and drafts, which were performed earlier and took a significant part of your strength, you can approach this training rested and full of energy, which will allow you to train much more intensively. Also, you will have the opportunity to use heavier weights, which is an additional incentive for the growth of hands!\nIn order to ensure a complete recovery, it is recommended to put a rest day before and after training your hands. The organization of the training split will become a little more complicated, but you will get a win in the long run.\nWorkout for biceps\nBegin training with exercises in which you will be able to use larger weights. After warm-up for triceps workout, it is better to apply such basic exercises as a barbell press with a narrow grip or push-ups on the bars, where the load falls on all three beams and will be 2-3 times higher than using more isolating exercises.\nFor the biceps, bending the hands on the bench or bending the hand with the knee stop will not be a very suitable exercise at the beginning of the workout, because you can use much more weight when lifting the bar to the biceps standing with EZ \u2013 curved or conventional neck. The exercise that you do first in the training of hands, has a significant impact on your final results, so carefully think about what it is better to start training!\nAfter you have decided on the basic exercises, you should correctly choose the weight of the projectile. Do not use too light weights, if you want to increase the strength and size of the muscles \u2013 for these purposes the weight with which you can perform 8-10 repetitions is good!\nShoulder-width elbows are the ideal position for bending hands. But, as in bench press lying or deadlift, there are different options for doing the same exercises that can increase the growth of your biceps.\nWhen the elbows are outside the body body, as when doing flexions on the Scott bench, the long head of the biceps can not fully stretch, and therefore the focus of the load shifts to the short head. In a position where the elbows are pressed to the sides (or are next to them), as in flexion, the long head is completely stretched, which allows it to contract much more when lifting.\nYou can also shift the focus of the load by changing the position of your hands. Using the grip of the shoulders already, you heavily load the long head of the biceps, since it is located above the short one. Accordingly, with a wider grip, the short head of the biceps is more strongly involved.\nFrench press for triceps\nTraining of different muscle groups has its own specific features and differences, which must be known and taken into account. For the development of a large and strong horseshoe triceps, exercises where the weight will be above the head are best.\nRead the article about products for muscle growth.\nThe long head of the triceps, which has the largest volume, is maximally stretched only when the arms are above the head, and the more the muscle is stretched, the stronger its contraction! Extensions with a barbell, dumbbells, a block above the head accent the load on the long head. There are special simulators that also repeat this movement.\nIt should be noted that when the arms are positioned perpendicular to the body, for example, when extending the arms with the bar above the head lying (French press), the long head of the triceps gets a good load, but if you perform the French press not on a horizontal but on an incline bench the beam will be used even more!\nOne of the best ways to increase the volume of your hands are simple flexion with the bar back grip (supination), in which the biceps contraction occurs.\nHowever, hand flexors consist not only of the biceps arm muscle, but also include a certain number of other muscles. Brachialis is located deep under the biceps, but increasing its size will also help increase the total arm volume.\nIn order to use the brachialis, you should perform the exercise \u201chammers\u201d, which uses a neutral grip (palms look at each other), and hands are parallel and pressed to the sides. This exercise can be performed using a block simulator or dumbbells.\nBrachiodialis (shoulder muscle) provides the thickness of the upper forearm, and is also included in the work when performing \u201chammers\u201d, but it is best used when using a direct grip (pronation) in the bending of the hands.\nA common mistake that occurs when training triceps is to increase the distance between elbows, especially at high loads. If you do push-ups from the floor, on the beams, press a narrow grip or french press, always make sure that the elbows do not \u201cwalk\u201d and are tightly fixed relative to each other, while maintaining the load on the triceps.\nThis is especially difficult to do when using large weights, since elbows under load begin to diverge sideways. This involves the connection of the muscles of the chest and shoulders, which negatively affects the effectiveness of the triceps exercise.\nFor maximum results, you should choose a weight at which you can keep your elbows in one position while keeping them still for the duration of the exercise.\nThe most common mistake in training biceps is the situation in which people try to lift the weight as high as possible in order to achieve a peak reduction in the biceps. The full amplitude of the movement must be observed, but lifting the weight too high is often done using the front deltas, which removes some of the load from the biceps. That is why, while observing the right technique, which assumes that the elbows should be slightly pressed to the sides, flexing the arms with the weight makes it possible to bring it approximately to the height of the shoulder.\nBut many athletes, in order to raise the weight even higher, lead the elbows forward, and this leads to the fact that the movement from a purely isolating one turns into a multi-joint movement. At the top of the lifting phase, partial relaxation of the biceps occurs, which leads to a decrease in the load.\nTo better isolate the biceps, only move one joint, and do not forget to keep your elbows pressed to your sides.\nPumping biceps on the scott\u2019s bench\nThis is a powerful and popular way to get incredible muscle load. Pumping is best achieved by a high repetition load, in which the blood fills the target muscles, presses on the borders of the muscle fascia (the connective tissue that surrounds the muscle cells), which leads to their increase. This method is best suited for the end of a heavy workout.\nHeavy workouts cause processes that are called myofibrillar hypertrophy, in which structural damage to muscle fibers occurs with their subsequent growth. Low loads fill the cells with liquid, but do not necessarily cause fundamental damage to the muscular structures. Therefore, to achieve the maximum result, use both methods. If at the beginning of a workout you train hard, then leave some energy for pumping at the end of the workout.\nTriceps exercise\nLarge muscle groups, such as back and legs, require heavy and intense training, after which a long period is required to restore them. For small muscular groups this time will be much less, not without reason many athletes train calves and press 2-3 times a week.\nIf you have the strength, time and desire, you can add additional training of hands to your training process.\nApproximately it can look like this:\nDay 1: Breast \u2013 Triceps.\nDay 2: Recreation.\nDay 3: Back \u2013 Biceps.\nDay 4: Rest.\nDay 5: Legs \u2013 shoulders.\nDay 6: Biceps \u2013 triceps.\nIf you decide to train your hands twice a week, then the training should be done differently by choice of exercises, and by intensity. You can also use such training techniques as negative repetitions, supersets or drop-sets.\nadmin Comments Off on 9 most undervalued tips for training your hands",

I am honored to serve as the 2017-2018 SMPS/LA Chapter President. When I first joined SMPS Oregon in 2008 where I \u201cstumbled upon\u201d the A/E/C industry, I wouldn\u2019t have believed it if someone told me I\u2019d eventually serve as Chapter President.\nHaving served as Communications Director and Membership Director for the L.A. Chapter, I have built relationships with my fellow Board Members, developed friendships with members and colleagues, and created partnerships within the local A/E/C community. I am thrilled to be a part of this dynamic group of leaders and to grow as a professional services marketer.\nIn alignment with SMPS\u2019 mission to advocate for, educate, and connect leaders in the building industry, it is our Chapter\u2019s vision to Engage and Celebrate with you throughout the coming year. We aim to give back to our members, get to know one another on a personal level, and celebrate the successes and achievements we\u2019ll accomplish together.\nEngagement is essential to the A/E/C industry: As business developers, our connections help to develop successful partnering opportunities. As marketers, we excel within our respective firms by making an impact on the communities in which we live, work and play. As individuals, our network of like-minded colleagues gives us the knowledge and confidence to grow in our careers.\nDid you know SMPS/LA is Celebrating its 35-year anniversary this year? Our Chapter was originally incorporated on November 17th, 1982. From our humble beginnings, we have become a strong Chapter with awards and accolades under our belt. We look forward to celebrating our stories and successes with you throughout the year.

Together, we are building upon the successful leadership before us (35 years strong) while bringing new and innovative ideas to realization.\nIn order to better serve our local A/E/C community's needs, we\u2019ve compiled a survey to determine the types of programs and events that would be most beneficial to you.

I look forward to Engaging and Celebrating with you!\nWith The Leonardo behind us and the SMPS/LA fiscal year coming to an end, I\u2019ve had time to reflect on my time as President, our success as a Board, and lessons learned along the way.\nWhen Suria Lee approached me over two years ago and asked if I would be her President-Elect, I was quite nervous and filled with apprehension. At the time, I was relatively young, rather shy and timid, and had no real experience leading others. Many doubts and questions filled my mind, including my abilities to lead and gain support for my ideas and decisions.\nI spent a lot of time contemplating whether I was fit to lead a group of professionals; I held these individuals in such high regard since I entered the industry only several years before. After many conversations and several restless nights, I decided to jump in and commit to the fullest extent possible. One driving factor behind my decision is that SMPS is an organization dedicated to the educational and professional advancement of marketers and business developers in the A/E/C industry. What better organization to learn and grow from than one that was created specifically for someone like me?\nWell\u2026 Learn and grow I did! Although this was a very successful and rewarding year, it was not an easy year. It was a year filled with constant change and numerous challenges that I did not expect to encounter. However, it was through these obstacles and learning experiences that I became a better person, both professionally and personally. Participating on the SMPS/LA Board of Directors helped me gain leadership and public speaking skills, develop personal and professional relationships, and increase my self-confidence.\nI wouldn\u2019t have had such a great learning experience without a wonderful and hardworking Board of Directors to collaborate with. From our Programs, Education, Special Events, and Professional Development Directors who consistently delivered successful programs and a Sponsorship Director who kept us profitable; to my fellow Presidents\u2019 who were always there to give advice and step in to help when help was needed; our Secretary and Treasurer who kept us on track with financial and operational matters; our Membership Director who constantly engaged our current members and attracted new members; and our Communications Co-Directors who delivered our message to the Los Angeles region\u2026 The SMPS fiscal year was a success because of the teamwork and collaboration we had together and that each Board Director had with their individual committees.\nIt takes a small army to run an organization - a dedicated army that truly cares about the best interest of its membership. Thank you to the entire Board of Directors and all the committee members, past Board members, SMPS advocates, and friends who were dedicated to making this year a great success. I am going to miss working with each and every one of you and appreciate all that you\u2019ve done for both the Chapter and myself. Cheers to many more successful SMPS/LA years to come!\nVote Now!

As UCLA Campus Architect, Mr. Averill oversaw the design of every major campus building for 15 years.\n\"You can see Jeff\u2019s influence in every part of campus. He made sure that every design element fit into the campus vocabulary and enhanced the image of UCLA. He was smart, direct and unafraid to challenge our architects if something didn\u2019t work. He was the conscience of the campus, a great advocate of design and a good steward of the university.\" - Peter Hendrickson, UCLA Associate Vice Chancellor of Design and Construction\nIn honor of Jeff, SMPS/LA will be making a contribution to the UCLA Architecture Fund in his name.\nLearn more about Mr. Averill's accomplishments:\nSMPS/LA President\u2019s Letter\nGreetings from the SMPS Los Angeles Chapter Board of Directors! I am honored to serve as the 2016-2017 SMPS Los Angeles Chapter President and am proud to share that the Chapter\u2019s dedicated Board is working hard to formulate another great year of programming for its members.\nGreetings from the SMPS Los Angeles Chapter Board of Directors! I am honored to serve as the 2016-2017 SMPS Los Angeles Chapter President and am proud to share that the Chapter\u2019s dedicated Board is working hard to formulate another great year of programming for its members. During the 2015-2016 educational year, the Board worked diligently to solicit feedback from its members, program attendees, speakers, and sponsors to understand the types and formats of programs that would provide the best return on investment for members. The Board is taking the information received from program feedback, conferences attended, and the membership survey (please take a couple of minutes to respond if you haven\u2019t already. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SMPS-LA2016-17ProgramSurvey) and is tailoring this year\u2019s programming to meet the specific needs of our members.\nLast year was a very successful year for SMPS Los Angeles. A couple of highlights include rebranding of The LEONARDO, launching of SMPS Gives Back \u2013 a volunteer arm of the Chapter focused on giving back to our community, the holiday party at The Broad followed by a reception at Vespaio, highly attended monthly educational programs, multiple construction tours including the Wilshire Grand and Petersen Automotive Museum, and several client panels/roundtable discussions. Both this past year\u2019s LEONARDO awards ceremony and monthly educational programs have had the highest attendance the Chapter has experienced in recent years. The Board is excited to take last year\u2019s success and build upon it to create another successful year of programming and networking opportunities.\nA Taste of SMPS, a free program for members and non-members, will be held in late October to introduce the new Board and provide information about the benefits of becoming and being a member of SMPS. There will be opportunities to learn about the different upcoming educational and networking opportunities SMPS offers, hear success stories from seasoned marketing professionals in the A/E/C industry, engage with the Board members, volunteer for different committees, and network with other members and past SMPS presidents. There will also be a raffle to win a SMPS membership and a free registration to this year\u2019s Pacific Regional Conference which is being held in Alaska this February!\nThe Board plans to build (no pun intended, hehe) another great year of educational and networking opportunities. Members can prepare on attending monthly educational seminars and quarterly client panels, construction tours, SMPS Gives Back volunteer events, and networking happy hours. As always, there will be an annual holiday party and The LEONARDO. Stay tuned for more detailed program information through our weekly e-blasts and follow us on social media to stay up to date on Chapter activities!\nI am excited and honored to serve the Los Angeles Chapter and work collaboratively with the 2016-2017 Board to provide educational tools and resources that will help our members become dynamic and influential marketers and business developers. SMPS has been a valuable resource in my career, giving me the knowledge, mentorship, training, and skill sets needed to conquer any obstacles or challenges that have come across my path as a professional services marketer. I am grateful to be working alongside a Board of colleagues and friends who I admire and respect. Together, we are building upon the success of the leadership before us and bringing new and innovative ideas to fruition. We look forward to executing another great year filled with educational programming and networking opportunities!\nRayna Feliciano\nKKCS\nYear End Programming Survey 2016-2017\nThe SMPS/LA Year End Programming Survey 2016-2017 is now available!\nSurvey respondents who are SMPS/LA members will be entered into a raffle to win a free registration to the Pacific Regional Conference this coming February in Alaska!

Now under a conservation easement, this historical property will be protected in perpetuity. This is the second conservation easement with Dixie Plantation LP, adding to a previously protected tract.\n\u201cThis has been a project to put lands back together that were fragmented over the last 150 years or so,\u201d landowner James Hugh Ryan says of his family\u2019s land, which he has been working to protect for future generations.\nDixie Plantation is characterized by rolling hills, forests, wetlands, open land, and a 19-acre pond. The property is an important private land conservation expansion of the COWASEE Basin: a landscape scale project targeted at protecting the green heart of South Carolina\u2019s midlands with help from federal, state, and nongovernmental conservation organizations. Currently, over 143,000+ acres have been protected in the COWASEE Basin (315,000 acres in the core) along the Wateree, Santee, and Congaree Rivers.\nThe site of a whistle-stop village along a rail line, Dixie Plantation sits along what was once The Great Road, an ancient pathway used by Native Americans, troops in the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, and the site of many antebellum estates and plantations.\nAn area of geographic importance, the property is located in The High Hills of Santee, a unique topographic area in Sumter County with varied elevations and bottomland forests resembling the Foothills and Piedmont regions in the upstate. Essentially, Dixie Plantation has a hilly, almost mountainous terrain in a coastal setting, giving it unique conservation values.\nHome to a number of tree species, including Loblolly pine and many Hardwoods, Dixie Plantation provides habitats to hundreds of species of wildlife, including 34 species of birds of conservation importance. A working property, the private lands of Dixie Plantation will continue to be utilized for agricultural and timber purposes.\nAbout Congaree Land Trust: The Congaree Land Trust (CLT) was founded in 1992 by seven individuals committed to conserving the natural and scenic lands in central South Carolina. Since CLT\u2019s inception, they have conserved over 75,000 acres, representing 162 individual conservation easements in 13 counties. Conservation easements help protect the natural areas that fuel our state\u2019s natural resource-based economy and define our way of life.

        "raw_content": "HAHAT: Hop Against Homophobia and Transphobia\nHello all! I'm happy to say that I'm participating in the Hop Against Homophobia and Transphobia this year. I only just came across it about a month ago, so this is my first year both as a blogger and a general participant.\nI had a friend named Rufus when I lived in El Cajon many years ago, who was a sweetie. He liked to flirt with me which I enjoyed very much since my first husband, who I was married to at the time, was pretty lame at making me feel pretty, etc. Rufus was married and had a child, but he also had a boyfriend; I'm not sure if his wife was okay with this or even knew about it. In any case, one night around 2am Rufus and his boyfriend were walking down a street in El Cajon (a low income neighborhood in San Diego known for its white supremacists) hand in hand. Witnesses saw several men stop them. They shot and killed them both execution-style.\nThe perpetrators were never caught.\nI'm deeply happy to be away from El Cajon, but I've found that in NorCal there is still a lot of homophobia. Many people I encounter who don't live in California think that it's a great place for LGBT people, but while you do have pockets like SF, West Hollywood, and Hillcrest in San Diego, there's still a lot of progress to be made.\nFriday is International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (May 17th). Consider doing something to spread the word about LGBT rights. Got ideas? Post them in the comments!\nA couple of other questions to consider for commenting:\nHave you ever known anyone targeted with violence solely for some aspect of their identity? Tell us what happened.\nWhat's the best way to handle hate crimes? Should they be punished more severely than other crimes or treated the same?\nComment on this post and add an email and a preferred ebook format. I will do a random drawing of names (using an online utility) and the winner will receive free copies of all of the episodes of The City Darkens, which is LGBT fantasy. You can read more about the first episodes here. Some episodes are not yet out. The winner will receive them as soon as I'm done editing and formatting them.\nThe contest ends late in the day on May 27th.The winner will be announced on here on the blog (on May 28th, barring some unforeseen obstacle) and contacted via email.\nWant to comment but don't want to enter the drawing? Post away! I love reader comments.\nLabels: contest, gay, gay rights, GLBT, HAHAT, homophobia, Hop Against Homophobia and Transphobia, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGBTQA, LGBTTQ, prize, Sophia Martin, The City Darkens, violence\nUnfortunately, I didn't hear about this until today. I would have tried to do something...\nYeah, I missed the previous years. Next year, Rick!\nIn the mean time, you can comment on all the blogs. Should keep you busy for a bit. :)\nkimberlyFDR@yahoo.com (mobi)\nKimberly, from your lips...! And I agree. So much homophobia and transphobia is all about ignorance, and fear of the unknown.\nXakara May 18, 2013 at 6:31 PM\nI know some see the category of \"Hate Crime\" as special treatment, but I think it's crucial that we give pause to the overwhelming venom that brews in certain communities and mindsets.\nNo, neither a law nor a harsher penalty will stop someone who truly means to hurt another person, but it will give pause to the casual bigot drinking beers on a Friday night, seeing two men or two women or an interracial couple. Acting out isn't worth it if you're guaranteed to be giving up your freedom to do it.\nIf we can curb the petty, banal acts, it creates more safe space to congregate away from the deeper, psychopathic behavior that cannot be legislated away.\nI'm sorry you lost your friend.\nMy HAHAT Contribution Writing From the Middle: BiErasure & BiVisibility\nXakara at Xakara dot com\nHi Xakara! Thanks for commenting! I am so ambivalent about whether hate crimes should be prosecuted more aggressively and punished more severely. I tend to feel that all crimes should be prosecuted aggressively and punished severely! But then, I agree with your perspective, too. Maybe harsher penalties would be more visible and therefore act as a stronger deterrent. And I *so* want to see an end to identity persecution and hatred. Of course, there are myriad ways to approach that challenge.\nLisabet Sarai May 20, 2013 at 8:43 PM\nOh, Sophia! What a terrible, and terribly personal, story. My own HAHAT post seems so lame by comparison.\nI don't think that hate crimes should necessarily be punished more severely than comparable crimes not motivated by hate, but I think they should be prosecuted vigorously and the outcomes publicized widely, just to make people aware of the issue. If you don't know someone who has been victimized because of his or her sexual orientation, it doesn't necessarily hit home in the same way. More publicity might make the impact more widely felt. (Hence, of course, this hop.)\nYou know, they're called \"hate crimes\", but I still believe that they originate from fear and a sense of inadequacy or powerlessness. To really eradicate hate crimes, we have to make people happier with themselves and their lives. A second factor is the \"otherness\" phenomenon. It's easier to victimize someone who's obviously different, not like \"us\". That means we need to put faces on the concept of LGBTQ, to emphasize that gay or lesbian or transgender people are ultimately PEOPLE - with the dreams, fears and problems like everyone else.\nVisit my HAHAT post at:\nhttp://lisabetsarai.blogspot.com/2013/05/all-colors-of-rainbow.html\nemail me at: lisabet --- at --- lisabetsarai.com\nLisabet, I quite liked your post! I hope that next year the Hop includes anyone who wants to participate and is willing to offer something LGBT themed as a prize, just as you suggested there.\nI think you're right about unhappiness as a factor in hate. Envy certainly has a role to play. I think people like those who chose to stop whatever they were doing to kill Rufus and his boyfriend may have done so out of envy as well as hatred. Maybe they couldn't stand to see two people so comfortable with themselves despite their difference, and so in love with each other that they held hands despite the risk.\nWow...I'm sorry to hear about what happened to your friend. Thank you for sharing this personal story with us. As for punishment of hate crimes I think they should be taken seriously and treated as seriously as other crimes. I mean if hate crimes were given more pull then other crimes then it would seem bias and make other crimes look less serious. I mean, a crime is a crime, they should be dealt with accordingly and the punishment should always reflect in favor to the crime committed on the victim.\nThanks, humhum. :) I tend to be in favor of strong penalties for crimes, probably because of what happened to Rufus and, unfortunately, two other friends (who were not LGBT). I have to remind myself that perpetrators of crimes have families who love them too--it's the only reason I'm against the death penalty, to be honest. Because I think of the mothers of those convicted of capital crimes. And I wish there was a way to always be 100% sure of the guilt of those convicted.\nI am so sorry about your friend.\nAbout hate crimes - I struggle with this! I guess that I lean in the \"pro\" direction because, at the very least, it sends a clear message that society will not tolerate such things, as well as giving extra \"teeth\" to police and prosecutors in dealing with hate-motivated crimes. But I'm not sure whether it's useful as a deterrent; I think most people who do such things are secure enough in their own hatefulness to do them anyway, which means it's not terribly useful to the victims.\nEmail: layla (at) ravenschildren dot com (MOBI)\nHi Layla!\nI know, I go around and around about this sort of thing, too. As I mentioned, I tend to want harsh penalties for *all* crimes. But I do like that hate crimes get a special designation, although I'm not entirely sure that it *is* in any way preferable. I suppose any crime committed for such arbitrary reasons as someone's identity make me crazy. I can understand a crime committed for money, for passion, for revenge, or whatever--when there are personal reasons that drive one person to harm another. I don't in any way condone it (harsh penalties!) but I understand it. I cannot fathom harming someone just because I didn't like the way they dressed or the color of their skin or the fact that they were holding hands with someone.\nI think hate crimes should be punished more severely than other crimes. Why? Oftentimes, hate crimes are much more vicious than those motivated by other things, such as money. And there's a definite chance those criminals will become repeat offenders. If they were willing to commit a crime against solely because they think they're gay, or they're black, etc, than what's to stop them from doing so again? I've found that when hate's the motivator, people will go out of their way to hurt the things they hate. And if you let them get away with it, or punish it lightly, they will do so again in the future, except this time, it'll be worse.\nAnd besides, you think it's okay to hurt someone based on something they can't control, that they were born as? Then I'm allowed to demand you pay for your crimes to the highest extent.\nAnyways, sorry for the rant. As for the format, I'd like either Amazon gift or PDF. Thanks for participating!\nHi Emily! Thanks for commenting. Believe me, I have done my fair share of rants. :) And I certainly understand the urge to punish hate crimes severely. I guess where I stumble is that I've also know people who were killed for other reasons, and I want to punish their murderers just a hard.\nI've never had any personal experience with this kind of hatred. I think they should be punished very severely. I will never understand how someone can hate like that.\nSherry, I don't understand it either. I don't really understand violence, to be honest. I think as a result it comes up in my writing way more than I'm comfortable with. It's a way to try to wrap my head around it, I guess.\nAnd thank you for the comment!!!\nVanguard of Hope, by Kathy Steinemann\nQuality Control for Indie Authors\nTwitter: Spam vs. Marketing",

        "raw_content": "Sexual discrimination in London today\nPosted on March 14, 2018 by srqhotlist\nIs London as sexually liberated as we think? From the outside, London may appear to be one of the most sexually liberated capitals in the world. I have been working for London escorts for about a year now, and I am still worried about talking to other girls at London escorts that I am a transgender escort. I am not sure why I feel like that to be honest, but I am not totally confident that my colleagues at London escorts would accept me. Am I the only girl to feel like that? There are a couple of girls who work for a local low priced escorts agency who are bisexual and they are also concerned about openly discussing their sexuality. London escorts are not the only girls in London to feel this way. When you start to talk other bisexual and transgender people in London, you will also find that many of them are not totally confident in coming out.\nThey are worried about being ridiculed and at the same time, and standing out from the crowd. Is this why so many people wear masks at sex parties in London? Are they worried about owning up to their sexuality? After I have finished my shift at London escorts, I often go to sex parties in London. Most of the people I meet there where masks, and it is like they are worried about letting their true sexual nature shine through. It could be that going to sex parties wearing a mask is for them a very liberating experience, and the only way they can come out themselves into touch with their own true sexual nature. I know many London escorts who enjoy going to sex parties just to feel liberated. I am not sure what the future is for me. It would be great to be open and honest with my friends at London escorts and let them know that I am actually transgender. But I simply do not feel comfortable about doing so, and I am not sure that I will ever be totally comfortable about confessing up about my sexuality and talking about it.\nThere are days when I am not even so sure what is stopping me, but there is certainly something deep down in me which put the brakes on. Yes, I would love to shout from the rooftops about my sexuality, but I don\u2019t feel liberated enough to do so. Are there other transgender escorts working for London escorts? I am pretty sure there are but I don\u2019t seem to be reaching out to them. Could it be that we are all just as worried about talking about our sexuality? Although the girls at London escorts are a rather sexually liberated bunch of girls, I think that many of us are not as brave as we could be. We need to get better at talking about and acknowledging our own sexuality. The question is \u2013 will we ever be able to do so?\nPosted in Our Services, relationship, Uncategorized | Tagged bisexual, Escorts, London escorts, low priced escorts, sex parties, sexual liberation, sexuality, transgender\t| Leave a reply\nMy Cruise Love\nSince I left Mile End escorts, I have started to do so many of the other things that I promised myself that I would do. Yes, I do have a business but it is online, so I can take time off when I need to take time off. Not all of the girls I know planned out their lives like this, so I realise that I have a pretty good lifestyle and have the chance to really enjoy myself. Not all of the girls I used to work with at https://charlotteaction.org/mile-end-escorts Mile End escorts have been as fortunate as I have.\nIn the last two years, I have become a real cruise junkie. It is really such as good way to travel and I have found that I love it. Not only do you get to meet exciting people but you get to see a lot of fantastic places as well. I am not sure I am always going to cruise, but for the time being it suits me. The girls I used to work with at Mile End think that all people on cruises are old but that is not true at all.\nOne of the reasons I so addicted on going on cruises, is because I have met this exciting man. He is actually from the United States. At first we seemed to end up on the same cruises all of the time, but now we plan our cruises together. We are not lovers as yet, but we do have a really good time when we meet up, and many of the people we meet on cruises, think that we are a couple. I am not sure what is going to happen in the future, but I hope that we can continue to cruise together.\nApparently we are not the only couple doing this. Lots of people out their have cruise buddies and there are some people who do it all of the time. I am not interested in becoming a cruise buddy, but I do like my cruises and my special cruise friend. The ships are great for romance as you can really spoil yourself if you like. We have been so many times now, that we get a lot of free stuff when we cruise. I love that about cruises, and a bottle of champagne can make the cruise even more romantic.\nSome of the other girls I worked with at Mile end escorts would like to have a go at a cruise. I think that they are mainly planning to see if they can pick up a sugar daddy. A few of the girls I used to work with at Mile End escorts are really into their sugar daddies. Sure, you do get a few very rich gents around on cruises, but I am not sure it is the best place for my former Mile End escorts colleagues to pick up new sugar daddies, but then again, you never know. Anyway, now I am going to Skype my cruise buddy.\nPosted in relationship, Uncategorized | Tagged Escorts, relationship, romance\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "Do you ever find yourself wondering about all of the translations of the Bible we have today? How's a person to know which ones are right and which ones aren't? If you've read any of my writings you know that I'm partial to the King James Version, for a number of reasons that I'm not going into here, but even so I try to dig into the biblical languages for clarification and understanding.\nOf course, Satan has been using the lie that scriptures have been translated so many times as to be unreliable for generations now. But make no mistake, it is a lie.\nFirst, did you realize that the part of the Holy Bible that we call the Old Testament, the First Covenant, exists today in exactly the same form as when it was first written. Moreover, the original language of the Old Testament is still a living language spoken today as the first language of an entire people. The First Covenant was originally written in Hebrew by Jews, and today is still written in Hebrew by Jews.\nMore specifically, a Jew that writes the Holy Scriptures is called a 95&2 (sofer; translated scribe). And believe me when I tell you that they take extreme care to make certain that every copy of the Holy Scriptures they produce is identical to every other. The .*95&2 (soferim, or scribes) not only have to write each word verbatim, they have to write each character verbatim. It is not sufficient that they make certain to write an ! (aleph) where there is supposed to be an ! (aleph), but when they write the ! (aleph) they must make certain to write each stroke of the pen in the correct order. If the first stroke is supposed to be the upper * (yod), and they inadvertently write the leaning & (vav) first instead, then they have made an error and the entire page must be destroyed in accordance with their laws. Understand that I do not know the correct order for the strokes of an ! (aleph), but that's not the point. The point is that even though the error would have been undetectable, it was nonetheless an error and the page would no longer be acceptable.\nThis is only one example of the extreme care that goes into producing a copy of the Holy Scriptures. I couldn't begin to outline all of the rules to which they must adhere. Both the paper and ink must be made of the proper materials in the prescribed manner. The pen must be approved and of the proper size (relative to the height of the characters). And these are only a couple of the details they keep.\nBut the scribes aren't the only ones in Judaism who revere the Holy Scriptures. Once a copy of the Holy Scriptures is produced, it is sanctified and can no longer be touched by human hands. This is why they use a $* (yad; literally \"hand,\" a type of pointer) to touch the actual parchment. And when a volume has become so worn as to be unusable, is is destroyed and buried with reverence in accordance with Jewish law.\nYou might think that I am now about to go off on a tare over the way we treat our Bibles in comparison. You might think I am going to go off about the way we mark in our Bibles, or toss them on tables or leave them on shelves to collect dust. And if you think this you are wrong.\nNo, instead something else occurs to me. Why did God go to such great lengths to ensure that the Jewish people could trust the integrity of their Holy Scriptures, but we've had more new translations in my lifetime than I can keep up with. Even in the preservation of the language, God seems to have done so much more for the Jews than the rest of us.\nThere was an excavation at the Western Wall in Jerusalem which uncovered one of the oldest (lowest layer) original stones to be laid. It was a stone that was cut and placed by men who were subject to the rule of Solomon himself, men who very possibly saw King David with their own eyes and heard him speak with their own ears when they were children. On this stone was found an inscription, and Israeli school children today can read that inscription as easily as you or I read a street sign. Compare this to our school children trying to read Shakespeare, English from a mere few hundred years earlier.\nDoes any of this seem fair? Before you answer that question, let me point out that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. You see, God has given us something infinitely better than a sofer. God has given us the Holy Spirit.\nIn John 14: 26 we read that the Holy Spirit will teach us. We no longer need a priest to intercede with God on our behalf and we have no need of a sofer to guard the Word. Instead we have the Word to intercede for us, and the Holy Spirit to teach us about the Word.\nOf course, this is what God promised. We call the Christian portion of the Bible the New Testament, or the New Covenant, as did Jesus at the Passover feast where He ordained the sacrament that we now call the Lord's Supper (Matthew 26: 26 - 28, Mark 14: 22 - 24, Luke 22: 19, 20). But long before Christ partook of that Passover, God made this promise through His prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 31: 31 - 34). He promised to make a new covenant, not one like the first, but one wherein He would write His law in our minds and in our hearts. He promised a new covenant wherein we would have no need for teachers (rabbis) because we would all know Him personally.\nAnd in Hebrews 10: 14 - 17 we read that He kept His promise through the blood of Jesus the Christ, and that the Holy Spirit would be our teacher, witnessing to us of the Truth. This is why Jesus told us to ask freely for the Holy Spirit (Luke 11: 9 - 13; See also Matthew 7: 7 - 11). \"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.\" In both passages, Luke 11 and Matthew 7, Jesus goes on to emphasize that whosoever asks receives, whoever seeks finds, and whoever knocks has the door opened for him. That is, of course, so long as he does not ask amiss.\nIn James 4: 3 we read that some ask and receive not because they ask amiss, that they may consume it upon their lusts. Certainly this applies to those who pray for material wealth and a posh lifestyle. But it applies to more than just that. Consider the man who asks for wisdom and understanding, just so he can impress everyone around him. He too asks so he can consume it upon his lust, his pride. Oh, to be sure there are doubtless many ways to ask amiss.\nConsider, for example, he that asks without faith. In James 1: 5 - 8 we read again that anyone who asks for wisdom will receive it liberally from God, unless he asks without faith. Of the man who wavers in his faith, James writes, \"For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.\" If you ask but then doubt that God will give, you are wavering in your faith. And then there are other ways to waver in you faith.\nThere is a short story entitled The Monkey's Paw. It's a tale of a magical severed monkey's paw that grants wishes to its owner. Unfortunately, in granting those wishes it always does so in the most horrific and terrible way possible, inevitably causing the person asking the wish to lament having done so. Have you ever asked the Lord for something, and treated Him like the Monkey's Paw when you did? See if this sounds familiar.\nDear Lord, we need rain. Please send us rain, but please just send us the rain and no damaging wind or tornados or severe storms with it.\nMaybe this sounds a bit more familiar.\nI would really like to surrender to God's will unconditionally. But what if I do and then He asks me to go to Africa as a missionary? Or what if He calls me into the ministry? I don't know if I want to do something like that.\nHave you ever been hesitant, one might say wavering, about surrendering to God's will? Have you ever asked God for a blessing, only to immediately start adding caveats to try and counter every way you could think of that His answer might go wrong? Well, to quote James again, \"For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.\"\nGo back and read the passages in Matthew 7 and Luke 11 again. \"Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?\"\nWhen you ask God for a blessing, don't expect that blessing to be a curse in disguise. When you ask God for a blessing, expect the blessing as surely as your child expects food when he tells you he's hungry. Oh to be sure, if you are truly a Christian then there will be times when God will purgeth you (John 15: 1, 2). There will be times when you will be brought low and things will just go against you. And when these times come, and they will, then give thanks to God (I Thessalonians 5: 18), not out of gratitude but out of obedience to His will, trusting Him and Him alone. Nonetheless, when you ask God for a blessing, expect the blessing and not a curse.\nLikewise, when you surrender to God's will, do so unconditionally. Do not expect Him to then use your submission against you. The Devil or some evil man may deceive you, trap you, in an effort to force you to do something you don't want to do. A stage hypnotist may lull you to sleep just so he can make you do embarrassing things. But this is not God's way. Do not expect this of God.\nWhen you surrender to God's will, do so knowing that God will have only your best interest at heart, and that He will not try and coerce you to do something you don't want to do. How can I say that with such confidence you ask? Because God promised as much. Read Philippians 2: 13. God won't try and make you do something you don't want to do. He will make you want to do His will.\nIf God is going to call you to the mission field, then He will change your heart so that the only thing you will want will be to get into that mission field. If He wants you to preach, then you can bet that you will want to preach. Haven't you noticed that you just can't keep a person from doing what they really want to do. It's human nature. People find excuses not to do the things they don't want to do, and ways to do the things they want. It even makes sense to our limited understanding that God does better by making us want to do His will than by simply telling us to do so.\nMaybe you're worried that surrendering to God will mean having to give up a lucrative career, and it might. But don't worry that God will drag you from it screaming and kicking. He will change your heart so that you either want the career less, or something else more. At some point you may have to step out on faith. He may want to take you out of that lucrative job, and it may be hard to leave. You might need strong faith to leave your comfort zone, to leave what you know. But you can rest assured that as hard as it might be, it will be what you want to do. And if that time comes, ask God for the strength to do His will, but ask without wavering.\nThere is one final point I would like to address. Note that Philippians 2: 13 says that God will work in you both to will and to do His good pleasure. And yes, that means that whatever God wants of you, He will make you want as well. But take care to note that the passage does not say that everything you want to do is what God would have you to do. This is an important point, so allow me to reiterate. God will make you want to do His will, but that doesn't mean that everything you want is His will.\nNever deceive yourself into believing that God would have you divorce your spouse to find happiness with another. You may very well want to, but that is decidedly not God's will. God will never want you to do anything that is contrary to His Word.\nOkay, that's a pretty extreme and obvious example. But not every case will be so obvious. You may want to do something and genuinely not know if it's God's will or not. So just ask. As surely as you can ask and receive, as surely as you can knock and have the door opened, you can ask that God keep those doors closed that He doesn't want you walking through. Just ask without wavering, trusting Him to keep you in His will.\nSo when you pray, pray without wavering. Ask for a blessing and don't expect a curse. Submit to His will and don't expect Him to be a tyrant. And finally, always pray that His will, not yours, will be done.\nMatthew 26: 26 - 28 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.\nMark 14: 22 - 24 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it. And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.\nLuke 22: 19, 20 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.\nJeremiah 31: 31 - 34 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.\nHebrews 10: 14 - 17 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.\nLuke 11: 9 - 13 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?\nMatthew 7: 7 - 11 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?\nJames 4: 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.\nJames 1: 5 - 8 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.\nJohn 15: 1, 2 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.\nPhilippians 2: 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.",

He left just after and left the responsibility to Shioli, a girl, that doesn't speak much english. Later in the evening yet another staff member arrived. He was a bit better.\nThey were waiting for 3 more guests, who were supposed to arrive around 8pm. When I went to bed at 10pm they had still not arrived...\nBut this morning they were there. When I saw the first one, I thought, is was another member of the staff, and asked if they had a toaster, they usually have in these hostels. He didn't know much about that.\nNow they've gone and left me in an empty and cold house. It's really becoming autumn. If I'd been home, I would have turn up the heating. I lock up and leave.\nThe Castle in Matsumoto - the oldest in Japan\nWhen I've gone out of town to the north and turn left, they're there. The Alps. As a fortress they rise 3 km up. Nothing small in between, just right up. The sun is shining on those a little behind. Breathtaking.\nIt's a long straight road that goes along the high mountains. At last there's a distance on a sign. It's only 63 km to Hakuba.\nThe road starts to incline and once we go through a tunnel to get to the other side of a lake.\nA lonely fisherman\nAfter the high mountains have been pushed backwards by some lower green ones, the road goes through a number of tunnels, and then quite surprising (to me at least) comes a descent to Hakuba. Not bad on a day where I haven't been worth much.\nA Road Sta. comes up and there I use the opportunity to study the road to K's House. Fortunately, because it's not from Hakuba Sta. like I thought, but two stations before, that the route is shown. I find it without problems, so now at 2.30pm I'm already inside.\nIt's to late to take a lift up to hike a bit in the mountains, thinks the host, and I wouldn't have been able to it. Now I take the bike and to take a look at the area, before I go for the supermarket on my way home.\nFrom far away you see the ski jump towers. Nagano hosted the winter olympics in 1998 and ski jump apparently took place here. I must check this olympic stadium out.\nThe two ski jumps\nAs it isn't winter it's just some artificial surface on the lanes. And there are actually someone jumping. I never saw it before in real life. From where I stand there's half a second where you see them flying against the sky. I try to get it with the camera, but I don't think I succeed.\nWho finds the ski jumper?\nHakuba isn't a town in the usual sense. It's just starting point for skiing in the winter and hiking in the summer. It's covering a vast area but there are only shops at Route 148.\nBut there's no big buisiness now. Not in this hostel at least. I book'ed via the net yesterday, when I had arrived. But I had to wait for an answer. That came later in the evening. No wonder I now see because there aren't any other guests but me and there can be at least 100.\nThe hosts have a 1\ufffd years old daughter. She's so cute.",

Heinzen says the variants are quite rare, but when they do appear they are likely to produce an effect.\nPrevious studies at Duke and elsewhere found that genetic alterations at this particular stretch of DNA (located at chromosome 16p13.11) are linked to higher risk of schizophrenia, mental retardation, and very specific forms of epilepsy, but this is the first study to show that the deletion is related to a much broader spectrum of seizure disorders as well.\nPublished: Thursday, April 15, 2010 - 13:04 in Biology & Nature\nRead Full Article Here: http://esciencenews.com/articles/2010/04/15/rare.gene.variants.linked.high.risk.broad.range.seizure.disorders",

        "raw_content": "EVERY CLIENT GETS OUR \u201cA\u201d TEAM\nEugene Sakai, AIA, LEED AP\nEugene H. Sakai is the co-founder and president of Studio S Squared Architecture, Inc. A Bay Area native and lifelong resident, he has a deep love of the cultural and architectural diversity unique to this area. As the son of a Japanese gardener and grandson of a walnut farmer, Eugene\u2019s appreciation for the relationship between man and nature was formed at an early age, and greatly influenced his architectural philosophy. Eugene now delights in nurturing the careers of aspiring young architects in his firm nearly as much as he enjoys designing buildings for clients. Eugene has committed Studio S Squared to an architectural ethos that reinforces the connection between building users and their environment, uses natural resources wisely, and helps build a sense of community. He is a longstanding member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), LEED Accredited Professional, former member of the San Jose Arts Commission, and past Chair of its Public Art Committee.\nEugene has lived in San Francisco since 2007 with his wife and their three children, in various contemporary houses of the firm\u2019s design. In his spare time, Eugene enjoys playing pickup basketball, cheering on the Warriors, Giants, and Niners, and escorting his kids on various outdoor activities.\nSean Rinde is a California native, born and raised in Orange County. Sean first discovered a passion for residential architecture during his high school drafting classes. His early success in these classes set him on a path to become an architect, and he subsequently earned his Bachelor of Architecture with a Minor in Sustainability from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in 2008. Sean joined Studio S Squared in 2011 and has loved [nearly] every minute of it!\nWhen Sean is not overseeing all phases of design and construction at Studio S Squared, he\u2019s spending time cooking for his wife and son in their San Jose home, and working as a Weekend Warrior on their home improvement projects.\nSean Rinde, LEED AP\nJose Ares Abajo\nJose Ares Abajo was born and raised in Spain, where he later graduated from a prestigious architectural academy located in both Spain and Italy. Jose has always felt passion for design and a strong interest in America and its architecture. His upbringing in Europe brings a native understanding of the different styles of traditional architecture to Studio S Squared. Jose constantly seeks the moment of inspiration when long hours of iterative design study create a result that in hindsight, seems effortless and wholly appropriate. He especially loves helping clients to transform their personal visions into great works of architecture.\nJose loves spending time with his wife exploring California and cities across the United States, yet they always find time to visit their family and friends in Spain to spend high quality time in their company.\nDiana Jarrar was born in Kuwait and was raised in Amman, Jordan and Jenin, Palestinian Territories. Diana knew that she was going to be an architect since she was eight years old. She used to draw a house for each single person she met, according to his or her personality. Living under conflict and seeing the destruction of her country and displacement of her people, Diana\u2019s dream of being an architect became her career goal. Diana subsequently earned her Bachelor of Architecture from Birzeit University, Ramallah, Palestinian Territories.\nSince joining Studio S Squared in 2014, Diana has had the opportunity to contribute in all phases of architectural and interior design and documentation. She believes that a building\u2019s exterior and interior should be unified and harmonious. Diana recently became a U.S. citizen, and is currently working on getting her Architectural License.\nDiana has a passion for traveling. She has visited Syria, Turkey, Dubai, Italy, France, Austria, Greece, and Germany, and plans to continue her travels in the future. Traveling to these countries gave her the chance to observe different cultures and see many different styles of Architecture. Diana lives in San Jose with her husband and young daughter.\nDiana Jarrar\nHari Ceemalapati, LEED AP\nHari Ceemalapati was born and raised in the southernmost part of India, where she pursued her education. She had an early interest in arts, particularly in the role that geometry plays in the field of visual arts. As she delved more into the subject, Hari realized that the field of spatial design is the highest form of artistic expression and decided to pursue a career in the field. After moving to the United States in 2006, she obtained a Master\u2019s Degree in Design and realized her dream of practicing architecture.\nHari is a \u2018flora\u2019 enthusiast and spends her free time taking landscape classes where she learns about the native vegetation of the Bay Area. She enjoys learning and understanding the habitat, soil and water requirements of these plants in the classroom, and goes on hikes where she sees these lifeforms growing in their natural environment.\nSince joining Studio S Squared Inc. in 2014, Hari has developed a special focus in construction documents, bringing the team of consultants together, and seeing the project through the permitting phase. She is an LEED Accredited professional, and she believes in and implements sustainable building practices in her projects.\nThree months after finishing her studies in Serbia, Irena Veljovic moved to California to explore and expand her horizons \u2013 both personally and professionally. She has infused creativity and enthusiasm into the office of Studio S Squared. Irena is a talented designer who is confident in herself, and is not afraid to test boundaries and express her opinions.\nIn her spare time, Irena loves hiking, biking, and exploring new food and beer places with her husband and their friends. These adventures allow her to hone her skill as an amateur photographer.\nIrena Veljovic\nIsabeau Guglielmo\nOriginally from the Chicago area, Isabeau Guglielmo moved to the Bay Area upon graduation from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a Bachelor of Architecture and a minor in Sustainable Environments. Isabeau has always had a passion for traveling and immersing herself in different cultures. While studying at Cal Poly, she had the opportunity to study abroad in Italy and Australia, providing her with a deeper insight into the interconnectivity of architecture and society. In addition to traveling, Isabeau has had the pleasure of working on several humanitarian and non-profit projects while at Cal Poly.\nIsabeau decided to pursue architecture because of her love of design and her desire to bring beauty into the world. As a strong proponent of sustainable design, she is drawn to architecture that blurs the line between the natural and the built environment. Through this harmony, architecture becomes an extension of nature, augmenting the beauty of its surroundings.\nIsabeau enjoys a variety of forms of creative expression, including photography, art, graphic design, and furniture design. In addition to these creative outlets, Isabeau enjoys activities that immerse her in nature, such as hiking, running, scuba diving, and the occasional sky diving trip.\nSierra Schmitt graduated from Washington State\u2019s Bellevue College with her BAA. Many of her professors were practicing Architects and Interior Designers, who imparted on her the value of concept-driven design. Sierra believes in blurring the lines between Architecture and Interior Design, integrating exterior elements inside, and collaborating closely with Architects.\nSierra is a Carmel Valley native and began working for Interior Designers directly out of high school. Through her various positions in the field, she has come to especially enjoy developing client relationships. She believes design is an intimate process and sets out to learn how each client will interact with the built environment, providing an atmosphere where clients feel comfortable and heard. The results are a beautifully tailored interior that feels like home.\nIn her down time, Sierra loves to experiment in the kitchen, spend time at her local Crossfit Gym, and stay active with her two dogs and husband.\nSierra Schmitt\nStudio S Squared Architecture, Inc. was founded on the belief that client involvement is the key to a successful project, and we are committed to a team-oriented approach in all phases of the design process. We believe in the value of collaboration within our office and with our consultant team, the building contractor, and most importantly, the owner.\nOur practical experience covers the entire spectrum of projects, from small commercial remodels to large corporate campuses, from single family homes to multi-family buildings. The common thread in our buildings is the belief that architecture can lift the spirit, and that great relationships make great architecture possible.\nGreat architecture involves more than using our expertise to navigate governmental approvals. Clients look to us to take their ideas and elevate them into a design uniquely tailored to their site, personal, and business needs. We work to keep the lines of communication with clients open at all times to ensure that we can craft a building that is uniquely their own. With this approach, it is possible to create a \u201csignature\u201d building with every project we design.\nOur firm is committed to conservation and wise use of our natural resources, and minimizing our projects\u2019 impact on both the built and un-built environment.\nWe also commit a percentage of our billable hours every year to local non-profits in need of pro bono architectural services.\nI was amazed by the transformation of the house that was designed by these professionals. They maximized the available usage of the exterior and interior space of the house with exquisite details that complimented the remodel of the project. I have used other architects, but Studio S Squared truly offer a unique talent that needs to be taken advantage of.\nSunil Jivan\nFrom the very beginning Eugene and everyone at Studio S Squared made us an integral part of the team. They took the time to understand our vision for the project and we worked collaboratively to make that vision a reality. The entire team\u2019s attention to detail and the quality of design is impeccable. In addition, through the entire process the team was easy to communicate with, patient, and very approachable.\nRavi Handyal\nFrom our first meeting through the entire architectural design process, Eugene Sakai and the Studio S Squared team made us feel heard and part of a team that was collaborating to make our \u2018dream home\u2019 vision into a reality. Elements which proved invaluable were the excellent communication style, the ability to view a 3D model on our computer, the ability to see how sun patterns would impact the interior light, and the attention to detail Eugene\u2019s team paid to our multiple emails.\nL.

        "raw_content": "Actors : Charles Dance\nSavage Kingdom 1\u00d71\nHuman Planet is an 8-part British television documentary series. It is produced by the BBC with co-production from Discovery and BBC Worldwide. It describes the human species and its relationship with the natural world by showing the remarkable ways humans have adapted to life in every environment on Earth.\nAnnounced in 2007, the production teams based at the BBC Natural History Unit in Bristol and BBC Wales spent three years shooting over 70 stories in some of the most remote locations on Earth spanning about 40 countries. Each episode of the series focuses on a different human-inhabited environment, including deserts, jungles, the Arctic, grasslands, rivers, mountains, oceans, and the urban landscape.\nFor the first time on a BBC landmark series the production had a dedicated stills photographer, Timothy Allen, who documented the project photographically for the books and multimedia that accompany the series.\nHuman Planet was originally screened in the UK on BBC One each Thursday at 8pm over eight weeks, starting from 13 January 2011. Domestic repeats have been seen on Eden, with all 8 episodes aired over one week in April 2012. BBC Worldwide has since announced they have sold the broadcast rights to 22 international markets.\nGroundbreaking series with unprecedented access to a police murder investigation, telling the true story, as a drama, from the perspective of the police and the victim and suspect\u2019s families.\nExplore the last 100 years of aviation history in unprecedented detail. From the Wright brothers first flight to the Apollo moon landings and beyond, the series highlights milestones in an industry defined by innovation.\nThis docuseries examines the decades-old murder of Sister Catherine Cesnik and its suspected link to a priest accused of abuse.\nHit rewind and explore the most iconic moments and influential people of The Nineties, the decade that gave us the Internet, DVDs, and other cultural and political milestones.\nPresented by David Attenborough, Life Story tells the remarkable and often perilous story of the journey through life. It is a story that unites each of us with every animal on the planet, because we all set out on this journey from the moment we are born. For animals there is just one goal in life \u2013 to continue their bloodline in the form of offspring. This series follows that journey through its six crucial stages: first steps, growing up, finding a home, gaining power, winning a mate and succeeding as a parent.\nIn Search of\u2026 is a television series that was broadcast weekly from 1977 to 1982, devoted to mysterious phenomena. It was created after the success of three one-hour TV documentaries produced by creator Alan Landsburg: In Search of Ancient Astronauts in 1973, In Search of Ancient Mysteries and The Outer Space Connection, both in 1975. All three featured narration by Rod Serling, who was the initial choice to host the spin-off show. After Serling\u2019s death, Leonard Nimoy was selected to be the host.",

        "raw_content": "Hala and the Dinosaur*\nBy Tarek Ghanem\nMidday, on a day warmer than the one that came before, colder than the one after, in the midst of a mediocre February and in the crowded heart of the capital of Fearistan, a conscript who\u2019s wrapped in two cheap gray wool jumpers tucked under his black military uniform carries the heavy briefcase of the country\u2019s prosecutor general. The bag is swollen with documents, files, an ipad, a laptop. With his laughing eyes, he is wordlessly trifling with his friends and others who come from the same village, all of whom overpopulate the prosecutor general\u2019s office. He is on his way out to the prosecutor\u2019s comfortable car, which basks confidently in the shade outside. The scent of an original \u201cFahrenheit\u201d cologne, which the prosecutor, who is now walking behind him wears to work every day, penetrates the area, instantly changing its energy. It fleetingly overpowers the smells of cigarettes, the remains of tea and spiced Turkish coffee, the rural sweat of the conscripts. As soon as the entourage steps out of the inner darkness of the building to the light of the capital\u2019s polluted sky, a light wind briskly sweeps through, pushing the very long hair on one side of the prosecutor\u2019s head sideways. He uses this hair, or rather glues it down, to cover his concave baldness. The problem is the prosecutor general is a little handsome: his two shapely hands are big, his body is well-built, but his bald head is the one thing that can send childish doses of insecurity surging into his bloodstream, despite all his accomplishments in life. At the same instant his hand jumps to cover the sudden nakedness of his skull, the cell phone, which was already in his hand, rings loudly and falls from his hand to the marble floor (two other phones are in his pockets on silent). He knows the number. He knows the caller. He does not know what the subject of the call will be this time. He bounces with his body to catch the phone, momentarily forgetting his naked skull.\nProsecutor: Yes, sir. Good morning. Good day. How are you\u2026\nVoice: [This part removed by the author in fear of consequences.]\nProsecutor: No worries, sir. It\u2019s all clear. Everything will turn out the way you like. These kids must be disciplined. I have been reading literature all my life, but this is not literature. Exploiting Life is not literature. It\u2019s filthy and rotten\u2026 That novelist Ahmed Taji must learn his lesson. Such promiscuous kids! They know nothing about discipline and good conduct. Even the illustrations are\u2026\nVoice: [interrupting] That\u2019s okay. Thank you, your honor.\nThe prosecutor now walks slowly back to his office, cutting through the beams of surprised looks that are shooting out from inside the open doors on both sides of the building\u2019s corridors. He is thinking about what to do. The employees, security guards, and the conscripts are thinking about what they will now miss, and are all engaged in various degrees of daydreaming about the world outside their workplace. Now they will have to stay until the prosecutor gets \u201clost.\u201d The prosecutor is back in his office. He walks in and shuts the door. The first thing he does is call his wife to inform her that he will be late. He checks on his beloved children, especially Shahinda. He thinks fleetingly about his previous lie, when he claimed to be an avid reader of literature. All he\u2019s read in his life from cover to cover are two, not three, novels. One of them is Yusuf al-Sibai\u2019s Give Back My Heart, which he, ironically, finished on the very day that al-Sibai was assassinated on a much warmer February day, during a Nile cruise with his then-young wife in Aswan in 1987. Novelist and former military general al-Sibai was the minister of culture. He was shot while on a state visit to Cyprus because of his efforts to assist Sadat in the peace treaty, and for traveling with the latter to sign the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.\nThe prosecutor also read the poetry of his much loved poet Abdel Rahman al-Abnoudi. He thought a little about whether the legendary The Personality of Egypt by Gamal Hemdan might be considered literature, even if remotely. He thought and decided to consider all the movies inspired by Naguib Mahfouz\u2019s works, in addition to Nightingale's Prayer, based on a book by Taha Hussein, to be not only literature that he could consider himself to have \u201dread,\u201d but to be the cr\u00e8me of literature and its eternal crowned jewel. These movies can be considered literature even if he saw their cinematic adaptation. And so, his syllogistic reasoning goes, he has been reading literature all his his life. He has read extensively in law, of course, and some history penned by Mohamed Hassanein Heikal with his canonical historical works, which many consider scripture-like, about the 1952 regime in Egypt. However, he was honest with himself: neither of these last two cases is true literature. If only.\nHe makes up his mind. He makes many phone calls. He calls the public defender assigned to the case of Taji and Exploiting Life; a literature professor appointed as head of the English Literature department in a public university by the magical effect of a special recommendation from \u201dabove\u201d; a prominent media personality; a judge; a military judge; a military general; and a senior assistant to deputy minister of justice. The latter is a close friend. They all agree to come to his house at six to discuss the case. Of course he invites them for dinner. He is generous. He orders a feast. A big feast. An expensive feast. Fish.\nThe general prosecutor\u2019s daughter, Shahinda, has a best friend: Sara. A junior in law school, Sara is in the \u201delites-only\u201d French section in the big public university in the capital, and she spends many hours in the prosecutor\u2019s house. Sara is the assistant deputy minister of justice\u2019s daughter and a confidant of the prosecutor. Unlike Shahinda and others around her, she is revolutionary at heart in a society antagonistic to all things revolutionary, either in thought or in critical innovation. Sara and Shahinda are just coming back from the Judge\u2019s Club, which imperially occupies one of most expensive spots of the capital of Fearistan, overseeing the broad river that cuts through it. They both studied for most of their time there, also playing on their cell phones every now and then. Sara, who loves contemporary literature and fiction, especially the writings of her generation, has recently decided to carry out a wicked and audacious plan.\nTwo years ago, she stopped arguing with anyone about politics and public issues in serious and candid manner--not even with Shahinda or her mother, the two individuals closest to her heart. She has started to live comfortably with the impossibility of hoping for change, with the impossibility of hoping for influence. However, she still--with the aid of her cleverness, peaceful temperament, and innocent aura--catches wither interlocutors off guard. Anyone from the tiny, immediate society of the judicial and military elites around her who she decides to set up is usually left bare in front of themselves. This is how it goes: She puts on the hat of Socratic gadfly, posing seemingly innocent and painfully obvious questions, acts ignorant, and forces her fellow conversant with escalating tactical arguments. They always get caught in her snare. They are left to face the deficiency of their own poorly-thought-out ideas. She enjoys this and masters it. She still remembers when she made everyone at the family table laugh at her father when he claimed that the government does not intervene in the formation of cross-partisan alliances. That was a laugh.\nSo, today is a big day for her. Today, Sara decides to outdo all her previous games. She is upset by the general atmosphere and the general discussion around the case against novelist Taji, a case which is mockingly known in the opposition and youth circles as the \u201dTrial of Stagnation.\u201d She decides to take revenge for literature, for imagination and freedom--but in her own way, and following her own understanding of the significance of small and personal victories. She made up her mind and paid a small sum to her friend and talented designer, Ahmad Gaber. She had him make a special and fake copy of Exploiting Life, removing the illustrations and putting it in a new cover that resembles the books from the 1970s and 1980s issued by the Ministry of Culture. She asked him to change the front matter and everything else, except for the actual text. \u201cAs is\u2026 as is. Leave it as is,\u201d she kept insisting to Gaber. All she asked to change was the author\u2019s name from Ahmed Taji to Edwar el-Kharrat, one of the giants of Egyptian literature, and the title from Exploiting Life to Hala and the Dinosaur.\nHer idea is simple. She wants to prove that what bothers the Fearistanian judges and generals is not explicit sexual writings. What bothers them has nothing to do with ethics, religion, masculine patriarchy, authoritarianism, fake middle-class self-righteousness or any of these bigger ideas. After all, almost all the old \u201dgiants\u201d of Fearistanian literature have written explicitly about sex in their literary classics. Right? What really outrages them--and no one knows this more than Sara--is something simpler, more basic, more primitive. It is their primal, visceral, and intense hate of the liberal, open minded, and liberated youth. The old guard of Fearistian authorities lived a hollow and stern life, or so they see it, at least, when they compare it with the \u201dunrestrained\u201d youth of the revolution. They hate intellectuals and the youth who are \u201djust having fun.\u201d The great tycoon, Mohamed Farid Qamis, who is very close to the regime, said so recently in the open. They especially hate them if they are young. Especially if they are liberated.\nSara read the novel Exploiting life and didn\u2019t like it. She fully agrees with its ideas and line of thought, and she appreciates the internal coherence that glues its particular crude and boorish language with the project of the author. She agrees with the boredom, lack of motivation, and loss of hope that colors all the layers and shades of current life in Fearistan. She agrees with the author\u2019s dystopian analysis. She agrees that the capital of Fearistan is perishing for sure. It is set to explode internally. However, for her, a like or dislike of the book has and should have nothing to do with the principle of free speech. Neither does she object to explicit writing. But she also doesn\u2019t like profanity. She likes more creative language, and the kind that avoids old-fashioned pretensions. She is conservative and religious--a little. But Sara adores Taji\u2019s articles and op-eds, especially his piece on granting the cheesy and dimwitted head of the musicians\u2019 syndicate judicial and police powers. This article made her laugh repeatedly. Or his other essays that see the country\u2019s crisis is in essence an unsurmountable generational gap, a piece that she read more than once. There is also his article on how ugliness permeates the current public space.\nShe plots how the prosecutor general will fall into her trap this evening. But she doesn\u2019t know that her prey will now be bigger. Maybe bigger than the trap she\u2019s dug.\nThe invitees enter one after the other. Sara\u2019s father comes in, too. She welcomes him, and they agree that she will stay with her friend, the prosecutor\u2019s daughter, until the meeting and dinner are over. Then they will go home together. She starts reaching out and feeling in her bag, which contains the fake copy of Exploiting Life, or Hala and the Dinosaur. As time ticks away, her eyes brighten more and more, and she is increasingly anxious. The elders close the door behind them and start their meeting. Their meeting is surprisingly and unexpectedly short. Tomorrow in the afternoon, Sara will know that Taji is sentenced to the maximum possible sentence, two years in prison. But, for now, at least for this moment, she has changed her plan and her eyes are set on a bigger victim, a more important one, and this is all that matters in the here and now. The elders open the door. They go to the spacious and over-decorated dining room where three delivery men have brought in the food. A forest of watercress, scallion, and little lakes of tahini paste surround an elaborate and carefully manicured garden of different seafood dishes. The smell fills the place and expectation tickles everyone. \u201cWe will also have tea ready, please\u2026,\u201d the prosecutor says while waving his arm in a slow, awkward circular manner that signifies welcome.\nHere and here only Sara will be able to eavesdrop on, nay witness and partake in, the conversation. Now and only now she will be able to cunningly put the fake novel on top of the three books she has been studying and appear natural. She decides to approach the famous literature professor who is a puppet of the security forces.\n\u201cHow are you, Sir. I love literature so much and love your writing. Your latest piece was amazing.\u201d Some adulation. After some ego stroking she continues: \u201cWhich writers do you love?\u201d She quickly advances before the professor\u2019s hands get dirty with the fatty smelling fish.\n\u201cAl-Ghitany. I love something called al-Ghitany.\u201d\n\u201cMe too, professor. Do you love Yusuf al-Sibai?\u201d\n\u201cMay his soul rest in peace. What a giant of literature. I read all his works.\u201d\n\u201cReally! Wow! What do you think about this novel? Can you please read aloud a little part of it? I love it when you recite poetry and excerpts of literature on television.\u201d\nAll the people around the two of them smile. Others, who have no interest in literature, start remembering that they better wash their hands before eating.\n\u201cSure...sure. Let\u2019s loosen up the mood a little before the table is fully set. What novel is this. Oh, Hala and the Dinosaur\u2026 Uh\u2026 Haaala and the Dinosaur. This is rather one of al-Kharrat\u2019s better works. He is a literary giant. What giant\u2026 Yes, I read it.\u201d\nOf course he never read it. Of course, he\u2019s confused because the title is close to al-Kharrat\u2019s famous work Rama and the Dragon.\nHe starts reciting the prose majestically and slowly. Everyone is delighted while snatching bites of the appetizers. He reads for two full minutes until he finds himself face to face with a sex scene. He stumbles. Stops. Thinks. Decides. Comments, \u201cAnd there is a sexual scene here\u2026 but, you see, when one of those giants writes\u2026 when they talk about love or innocent insects [by which he means an explicit sex scene], they talk about it with such grace and civility. See\u2026 see... Of course I will not read this part now because of the presence of our respected daughters. You can read it on your own if you wish.\u201d\nSara thanks him and expresses her respect and appreciation loudly in front of everyone. She asks him to write her a little dedication note and to sign the first page of the book. \u201cPlease, for my sake!\u201d He does it hastily, but with a smile, since hunger by now has sunk into his belly. She comes closer to him and, with all the courage in her stomach, she slowly and emphatically whispers in his ear: \u201cLook closer professor. This is Taji\u2019s book, Exploiting Life. I changed only the cover. Al-Kharrat never wrote a book or anything called Hala and the Dinosaur. You moron.\u201d\nShe walks out and goes to chat with Shahinda. She celebrates her biggest victory internally and alone, while the dinosaurs are enjoying the delicious seafood and their fantasies about the aphrodisiac effect it will have on their aged bodies. The literature professor remains speechless for remainder of the night.\n* I am indebted to Marcia Lynx Qualey for editing this short story, which I translated from Arabic.

        "raw_content": "Anomalous Cosmic Ray Hydrogen\nCosmic rays can be accelerated in different ways. Some cosmic rays (called anomalous cosmic rays or ACR) are accelerated in the Solar System, at the shock where the solar wind meets interstellar space. Others are accelerated outside the solar system, by various processes in the Milky Way Galaxy and are called GCRs. Eric's PhD thesis research involved separating these two components for cosmic ray hydrogen, and identifying which part of the observed hydrogen cosmic rays were ACRs.\nThe key idea was that ACRs and GCRs, because they are accelerated by different processes, have different energies. GCRs have higher energies than ACRs. Therefore, you should be able (theoretically) to identify the two components by looking at their spectra. This can be seen in the proton (hydrogen nuclei) energy spectra below, which show two separate humps. Comparing the hydrogen spectra with those from other elemental cosmic rays, Eric speculated that the lower energy hump was from the population of ACRs and the higher energy hump is from GCRs. The data he used in this work were from the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft, which approached the solar wind termination shock in the late 1980s.\nSpectra for Voyager 1 (left column) and Voyager 2 (right column) for the time periods 1994 days 157-261 (a and b), 1994 days 1 - 105 (c and d) and 1993 days 53 - 157 (e and f).

        "raw_content": "\"Can't wait for ya'all to see me blue!\"\nWill Smith has given Disney fans a reason to get excited tonight. (Hence, the \"diamond in the rough\" line in the teaser.) The location ends up being where Aladdin finds the Genie's lamp, something that is set up by the teaser's final moment. Mena Massoud/Aladdin, Naomi Scott/Princess Jasmine, Marwan Kenzari/Jafar, and I'm over here gettin my Genie on.\nThe film is a remake of 1992 animated film that ended up bagging two Oscars.\nGuy Ritchie's film follows numerous same beats - Mena Massoud stars as the titular charming street rat who meets the courageous and self-determined Princess Jasmine (Naomi Scott) and a Smith's Genie who may be the key to their future. Music is by Alan Menken, who also created music for the original animated movie with Howard Ashman and Tim Rice.\n\"It is really interesting because [Guy Ritchie] doesn't come from a place of a big deep background in musicals\", Pasek & Paul said. \"His take on \"Aladdin\" is very muscular and action-packed, and that's a very cool energy and point of view to bring into the mix\". Aladdin is hitting theaters some time in May.\nAladdin, Princess Jasmine, the Genie and Jafar are all back in action in the first trailer for Disney's upcoming \"Aladdin\". The live-action versions of The Lion King and Dumbo will also debut in 2019. What has been your favorite live-action Disney remake so far?",

        "raw_content": "When I was in High School, I used to think 'I can't wait for the day that I am done with school!' It was a long awaited day - yet it was out of haste. I was thinking about that today as I was going about my day wondering if there was anything I would have done differently. Actually, it was my husband that triggered my thoughts towards that direction as he asked me the other day if there was anything from my high school years that I would go back and change if I had the chance. Somehow, I'd never really taken the time to consider such things. I just remember that I did not enjoy my time there, I was not exactly a popular kid and I really didn't care who I portrayed while I was there, either.\nYet, knowing that in the beginning of my junior year of High School my life had taken a dramatic change forever. I had made a life changing decision that would eternally affect my entire countenance. Considering that fact, my friends had not really changed too much. My social status did not change at all. I still didn't go to prom or have a boyfriend (sheesh... if I would have, that would have been pretty interesting to say the least!) And.... I still did not like school. Interestingly enough, I remember partly dreading school simply because I had to ride the bus to school. I never - no NEVER got to drive myself to school. I still look back on that and think it was pretty lame! Yea, I know, cry me a river.....\nSo, as I'm reflecting on my areas of change if I could go back.... based on how I changed on the inside, I wish I would have taken under consideration the legacy I could have left behind. Truly. I did not take seriously how much I could have made a positive impact on my school mates. I did not make it my mission to reach out to anyone. To be an encouragement, uplifter, or a positive reinforcer. I did not make myself known to people that I loved them or cared about them. I simply went about my day in the usual way without a care about anyone else's day or their story. There were so many people in my school that carried around broken hearts, bitterness, pain, anger, unforgiveness, etc etc. I did not take the initiative to be a vessel of love the way I could have. If I could go back, I would have been the best possible vision of love and compassion to the people I saw everyday in my school. I would have left an unmistakeable legacy.\nMaybe you're done with school for the year or you are graduating and moving on to college. What type of legacy did you leave with your classmates? What kind of example do you carry as you walk those halls? Is it a positive and impactful example? Even in your life with your friends and family.... strive to be the best version of you. Is there anything you would do differently to ensure it's a great one? You have the ability to be amazing and impactful on every person you know and cross paths with. It comes with your heart and what is deep within you. Discover that dazzling personality of yours and put it to good use to make someone else feel incredible. The more you bring out someone else's greatness, the more incredible you feel!",

        "raw_content": "Posted by thebabyspotca | Feb 21, 2016 | Baby, Blog, Featured, Parents | 2\nOur pets are more than just pets as they become a member of the family. The love and care we feel for them is so very special. They are the ones who are always loyal and by our side when we need them the most. This is how we felt about our cat Lily.\nWe adopted Lily in 2009 when she was six years of age and she was the sweetest cat you could ever meet. There is a saying that our animals are the ones who pick us and this rings true for us as she is the one who picked us. So when we were faced with her good-bye, it left us heart broken.\nHere is our story of how we lost our beloved furbaby, Lily.\n*Warning \u2013 specific details have been expressed in this piece that can be emotionally hard to read.\nIn 2009, we went to visit a facility of adoptions to see if we can find a cat to adopt. When we got there we went into a room with all the available cats that were up for adoption. We went around to see each one of them to see who would be a fit in our family of two (at the time). When my husband arrived at Lily, Lily gave him four kisses. As soon as she did that, my husband turned to me and said, \u201cOk, she is ours. We are taking her today.\u201d And that is exactly what we did that day. We adopted our new family member, Lily.\nLily came with a past of abuse, neglect and abandonment. The transition to get her comfortable with us took some time and we helped her along the way to trust us. After nine months, she was so comfortable that she slept on my husband\u2019s lap for the very first time and she just got more loving from there.\nWhen we had our daughter, Nikki, in 2014, Lily became even more loving and friendly. It was amazing to see the bond that Lily created with Nikki and as time passed, the bond grow stronger between them. Nikki ended up having a tag along friend as everywhere she went Lily was close behind.\nThe Dramatic Change & Diagnosis\nOur whole world then shifted with the sudden health changes to Lily. One day we noticed that she was struggling to do her business in the litter box and every time she tried, nothing would come out. Then when she would eat, she would throw up. We knew something was really wrong.\nThat same day (January 2, 2016), my husband took Lily to the animal emergency hospital to see what was wrong with her. After a five hour wait, it was discovered that Lily had a 3cm cancerous tumor in her intestines and this was causing a backup of her stool. This is why every time she ate she would throw up. Receiving this news was devastating to us as we never expected this to show up so quickly. Lily never showed signs of discomfort until now.\nThe vet provided us with two options. Option 1 was to do surgery which had high risks attached to it, such as not surviving the surgery and the tumor would return and spread. Option 2 was to put her down.\nThis was a lot for us to digest in one day so my husband brought her home for us to discuss it further. In the meantime, Lily was given two vaccines that would help with her pain and would prevent her from throwing up. After a lengthy discussion we decided to make an appointment for Lily to see her vet and get a second opinion. This was such a big decision to make that I wanted to make sure we did everything to ensure that putting her down was the right decision. We were fortunate to book an appointment right away which fell on a Monday (January 4, 2016). By this time, we could really see that Lily was getting worse. Her eyes were filled with pain, she lost another 10 ounces since Saturday and threw up even though she had a vaccine to prevent this from happening.\nMy husband went in with Lily to see her amazing and kind vet. Once the vet reviewed the x-rays from the hospital and did a full check up on Lily. She turned to my husband and said with tears in her eyes, \u201cThere is no saving her.\u201d Lily was getting frail, her bones were weak and she was starving herself to death. The vet further stated that if we decided not to put her down she would only survive another 3 weeks and she could just drop any day in our home. We just couldn\u2019t do that to her. Our vet has known us since we got Lily and she told my husband that she knows that we gave her the very best life full of love and that is all Lily wanted. She further stated that cats are very good at hiding their feelings of pain so there was no way to tell until now. What was happening to Lily was in the inside and it wasn\u2019t on the surface for us to see. With great pain, we decided the best thing for her was to put her down.\nSince Lily was a rescued and abused cat, who had been abandoned a couple of times in her life. I told my husband it would be comforting for him to stay with her to the end. I told him that I would hate for Lily to think that we abandoned her. I wanted her to know that we never left her and loved her so much until the very end. My husband found the strength to stay with her as I knew I just couldn\u2019t (just writing this has me in complete tears).\nThe vet prepared the needle that would put Lily to rest. She gave Lily the needle and to everyone\u2019s astonishment, Lily got up and walked towards my husband. The vet has only seen this happen one other time in her 26 years as a vet. So she turned to my husband and said, \u201cYou have to tell her that it is time to go. She doesn\u2019t want to leave you so you have to tell her that it\u2019s ok.\u201d As painful as it was for my loving husband, he turned to Lily and said, \u201cSweet Lily, it\u2019s time for you to go. We don\u2019t want you to suffer and it\u2019s ok to go.\u201d The vet said that Lily looked at peace now and she gave her the second needle while in my husband\u2019s arms. Lily looked up at him and gave him those same four kisses that she gave him when we first adopted her. After the last lick, she peacefully went. And that was the end of her suffering and the start of her legacy.\nThe Grieving\nIt has been a difficult process and we went through the grieving cycle such as denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. What has helped us the most, has been the amazing love and support from our family and friends. Just talking (writing) and crying about our loss has been very therapeutic to us as well.\nLuckily, our daughter is really young to comprehend or feel the loss. But we did talk to her about it in the simplest terms. The day we said good-bye to Lily, we told our daughter that Lily was going bye-bye to heaven and our daughter went to Lily and said \u201cbye-bye\u201d and gave her kisses. As I watch her do this, all I could do was weep but I knew it was important for our daughter to say good-bye.\nIn honour of Lily\u2019s memory we had the very first blanket our daughter was wrapped in from the hospital (which became Lily\u2019s favourite blanket) and a cat sleeper transformed into a keepsake teddy bear by Plush Memories. This was a beautiful way to celebrate her life and have something to hug when we missed her. It has been a great tool in helping us grieve.\nLily\u2019s Legacy\nAnother way we coped with the grief was by creating a fundraising campaign that we called, Lily\u2019s Legacy. Money raised by our campaign was going to help other animals like Lily who need that second chance at a forever home. The charity we picked was one in our local area called Companion Animal Rescue Effort (C.A.R.E.). C.A.R.E. is a volunteer-run organization that help animals just like Lily. I am proud to say that we raised $835 in memory of Lily and the money raised has already made a difference in the lives of our furry friends.\nWe didn\u2019t want to remember the abrupt ending but we wanted this campaign to continue the memory of Lily\u2019s life and sweetness by helping others, the way she did for us.\nThe Paw Print Left\nThe loss of a beloved furry family member is hard on everyone and Lily\u2019s loss will be felt for a long time. But she has left a forever lasting paw print on our hearts. To this day our daughter screams with excitement when she sees a picture of Lily. When we say that Lily has gone to heaven, she still responds with \u201cbye-bye\u201d and blows a kiss into the air. Because of Lily, our daughter will always have a special place for animals in her heart.\nLily was such a friendly and sweet cat who always greeted our guests and I know they have all felt her loss as well. Lily has definitely left her mark with many here in this world and we are so lucky to have had her.\nThank You Lily\nAs I write this piece, my heart is filled with array of emotions and now as I come to the end, it is filled with so much thankfulness. I am thankful for having the opportunity to have had Lily in our lives. Thankful for the unconditional love that she provided and taught us. Thankful for her loyal nature to our family. Thankful for the pure joy that she gave us. Thankful for the love, patience and kindness she always showcased to our daughter. Thankful for trusting us to hold her paw until the very end.\nWe could not have asked for a better and sweet family member. To that we say, thank you Lily! Rest in peace our sweet girl and know that we will always love you.\nPreviousThe evolution of Snapchat and parenting by Jama\u2019l Chukueke\nNextBringing Family Mealtimes Back Into Our Homes\nDifferences between baby #1 and baby #4\nTHE BABY SPOT BESTS-MARCH\nBlogger of The Week: Naimah from This Beautiful Life of Ours\nMackenzie Fox on February 22, 2016 at 5:37 am\nSo sorry for your loss.

        "title": "Adam smith vs Karl marks philosophy economics contribution Essay Example for Free",
        "raw_content": "HOME Free Essays Adam smith vs Karl marks philosophy economics contribution\nTo begin with, Smith came up with the concept of the \u2018invisible hand\u2019 (Communist (1848)). This concept was to explain that seeking self interest is not necessarily bad but it sought to explain the reality that people tend to act in their own self-interests. When individuals pursue their self interests, they promote without their knowledge the good of the community at large and so it can be said that an individual who wants to maximize their revenue maximizes the revenue of the society too.\nThis liberty to customers to buy freely what they want and for the producers to produce what they want without any pressure enables the market to settle on a product distribution and prices that are beneficial to all individual members of the community. This liberty to both producers and consumers and the greed to maximize their interests, drives them into a behavior that is beneficial to all in that particular community. Due to this, producers are forced to employ methods of production that are efficient with an aim o maximize their profits. This leads to low prices that are meant to out do their competitors and this forces investors to go for firms that wants to maximize their profits and hence this works as mechanism of balancing.\nWe will write a custom essay sample on Adam smith vs Karl marks philosophy economics contribution specifically for you\nThe invisible hand concept acts as the root of modern economics. A good example is the general equilibrium which states that if the economic forces are balanced in the absence of external influences, then the economic variables will not change. This requires that everything in the market beginning with pricing to production be controlled by the players in the market but not by other forces.\nThese external forces may include among others the regulations that are imposed by the government or other organizations that may have a say on the market. According to the general equilibrium, when the prices are very low, then there is surplus supply and when the prices are very low, then there\u2019s a shortage in supply. As a result of this, the situations tend to control themselves without the need for any regulator from outside. These outside forces in the market slow the rate at which the economy grows and they also lead to infancy in the division of labor. As a result of that need for self improvement, efficient division of labor is realized as well as improved efficiency in the economy. This concept is very much in use even in today\u2019s economy .\nThe modern market structure borrows greatly from the earlier ideas of natural monopoly by Adam Smith.( The Poverty of Philosophy >human nature)\nDivision of labor is a clear indication of qualitative step towards increased productivity and so it acts as an engine that drives towards realization of economic progress. Smith realized that labor division and for that matter labor specialization would improve greatly on the concentration of workers on the duties they perform. This concentration would come as a result of doing a single task many times or repetitively.\nThe need for improvements in productivity of the work force is said to be the root cause for labor division. According to Smith, labor division can lead to increased productivity. This productivity from the workers can be attributed to specialization in one task since specialization leads to greater skill on their particular subtasks compared to what would be accomplished by the same number of workers performing a broad task. For maximum productivity from workers, skills that they have should be matched with the corresponding equipments. Most of today\u2019s increase in productivity can be attributed to the matching of technological, human and physical capital and mostly in the manner in which they are organized. This means that laborers need to be equipped with the right skills so as to be effective in what they do compared to when there would be no job specialization and hence anybody could perform any job.\nTodays economics has borrowed greatly from these ideas from Adam smith. Many organization have realized the need to equip their employees and some even hire unskilled ones but pay for their acquisition of skills. Another outcome of labor division according to Adam smith is minimization of time that is wasted by employees when moving from one task to the other. A lot of time is wasted when people keep on relocating and this proves expensive to the company in the long run because they have to pay the employees. Through labor division, this time wastage is minimized .\nThe modern concept of scientific management borrows greatly from Adam Smiths ideas .Scientific management emphasizes on the connection between activities and the transformation that occurs within the process. This is also supported by William Petty who notes and demonstrates its importance in the construction of Dutch ships.\nHe admits that people with a particular task to perform had discovered new ways of doing their work which were later observed and justified by political writers on economy. (An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776)> specialisation)\nThe wages of labor\nWages of labor are dictated by mostly by the availability of job vacancies and also by the availability of workforce. When there are many workers and the available vacancies are few, the amount of money the workers are paid usually fall. Likewise, when employers compete against one another and the labor supply is limited, the wages paid to the employees usually rises but its worthy noting that this process is made possible by unity among laborers and masters. This kind of unity enables laborers to come together and stop biding for jobs against each other hence making the employers increase the wages paid to them.\nLikewise when employers come together in unity and stop binding against each other, the wages fall. However, in places where the amount of labor is more compared to the amount of the amount of revenue that can used to pay for waged labor, the competition among the employees in greater than the competition between the employers. Smith argues that the amount of revenue must keep on increasing constantly compared to the amount of labor so that wages may remain high. Profits of stock too have an impact on the wages because the more money is spent on compensating labor; little is left for personal profit. This is clearly shown in countries where competition amongst employees is great compared to competition among employers, profits will be much higher.\nDue to these views, Smith attacks people who are politically aligned and try to use their political influence to manipulate the government and other powers into their bidding. Smith feared that people of this class could form a powerful block and take advantage of their closeness with the authorities into manipulating the state into enforcing certain regulations meant to serve their interests against the general interests. These would maker other players vulnerable and have no say in the way businesses were being conducted. According to other people the level of specialization brought about by division of labor was externally determined but in the contrary, Smith argued that it was the dynamic engine towards economic progress.\nSurprisingly, Smith himself criticizes the division of labor arguing that it leads to mental mutilation of the workers hence rendering them ignorant and insular because their lives are limited only to doing a single task many times. These ideas by Smith are incorporated into today\u2019s discussions on economic issues. Human capital is one of the discussions in which Adams Smiths ideas are used. Human capital is one of the four types of capital that were identified by Adam as being important for the success of a company. As argued by Smith previously, human capital and the productive ability of the labor force is both dependant on the division of labor. It\u2019s worthy noting that human capital includes skills, dexterity, and the ability to make the right decisions and human capital can be acquired through informal schooling and on the so called on-the-job training. These acquisitions of skills aimed at improving the effectiveness of the workforce are still practiced today by many companies. (An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776) > productivity)\nBoth Adam Smith and Karl Marx shared a common idea and this common idea was their praise for capitalism .These two early pioneers of modern economics agreed that capitalism was the key in unleashing the productive powers. This argument stated that for the employees to be more productive, they needed to be subject to their bosses or seniors. If the employees were left to work at their own leisure these two men agreed that their productivity would be minimal and as a result, their employers would incur big losses. This created the need for competition among both the employers and the employees as well since this would keep these two parties on their feet through out. But despite these similarities in their in their views, there was differences in their ideas as well.\nMarx and Smith both seem to agree that capitalism is the ultimate driving force in profit maximization .New profits and value added, they seem to agree came as result of the employers paying the workers the exact value that is in the market for their labor capacity. But the sad thing was that in most cases, the market value of the goods which the workers produced exceeded that market value. This clearly means that the employers were making maximum profits while paying little to their workers. Both Marx and Smith agree that there are different types of capital and they play different roles during production.\nProduction Capitals include things like land, natural resources or raw materials and lastly technology. All the above named different classes of capital were dependant on each other in production. These two men seemed to agree also that social relations of production should not only be made up of relationships between individuals but rather should be between large groups of people or certain classes of people. These two men had the same idea of a free market. They described a free market as a market in which all prices of the goods that are on offer are decided by mutual consent between sellers and buyers and also one that did not mislead both the sellers as well as the buyers.\nThey both argued that these two major people in the market, the buyer and the seller, should not be forced into making decision by an external party. The relationship between these two players should not be manipulated by any one but to the contrary, it should be left to obey the natural law of supply and demand. The difference between free and controlled markets is that controlled markets are controlled by external forces These forces mostly refers to governments which may directly or indirectly try to have control of prices or the supplies in the market. One area where these two men seem to differ is their idea of job specialization.\nSmith advocates for specialization for jobs among workers. He argues that laborers who were assigned too many different duties were less productive than those who were assigned a specific task to perform day in day out. He says that this leads to efficient usage of time and it seeks to save time that is usually wasted by workers when moving from one task to another. But to the contrary, Karl Marx disapproves this idea arguing that job specialization could result to workers with more poor overall skills.\nThis, as he says would be brought about by tendency of people to resist change. He also says that when people perform one task repeatedly, it may lead to boredom and make them less enthusiastic about their work. He describes this whole process as a kind of alienation. According to him, the more workers become specialized and do the same thing over and over, they later become totally alienated. Marx goes ahead to argue that division of labor brings with it spiritual depression to the workers. This means that the workers perform their duties feeling as if they are being forced other than doing out of their own will .This greatly lowers the morale of the workers and as a result lower their productivity.\nPhysical tiredness or fatigue can be brought about by job specialization as Marx goes ahead to argue since they no longer feel like human beings but they feel more of machines. Contrary to the idea of Smith, Marx believes that fullness of production is very essential to human liberation goes on to say that he would accept the idea of a strict division of labor as a temporary necessary evil.\nThese views can be said to be in total contrast to those expressed by Smith. Smith on his part believed that any business was a collection of inter related tasks that were aimed at solving a particular issue. So as to effectively do this, Smith argued that the workload should be divided into simple sets of tasks which could be done effectively by workers who were equipped with special skills for doing that particular job. It\u2019s worthy noting that Smith, despite his advocating for division of labor, he does not advocate for achievement of labor division at all costs. It\u2019s worthy noting that in contrast to Smith\u2019s view which were only limited to functional domain only and were made up of activities that were direct in sequence as far as the manufacturing process is concerned, modern processes are very inclusive. It was as a result of his ideas that labor division was adopted. Today, we can clearly say that much of today\u2019s practices in the job markets have borrowed greatly from the ideas of Smith. In all organization, there is job specialization.\nThis has led to the rise of departments in many organizations and each department is allocated certain workers who are in most cases equipped with certain skill to enable them perform specific duties .The sense in this whole exercise as argued by Smith is that it saves a great deal of time that could be wasted by employees when moving from one task to another. This proves very essential since no employer will want to waste his money employees without maximizing their productivity.\nHowever, it is good to note that Smith admits that seeking self interests is not always good. All he tried to do was trying to reverse believe that self interest is generally bad. He also intended to bring to the light the idea that wile human motives are selfish and greedy; the out come of these human behaviors would bring benefits to the whole community at large.\nThis is the direct opposite of the ideas that Marx had .In his arguments; Marx says that the major struggles are always between the producers and those who work in the industries. Another of his greatest contribution to modern economics was his sharp distinction between the two types of division namely social and economic division of labor .If these two labor divisions are conflated, it might look as if labor division is inevitable rather than being constructed socially and influenced by power.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb England \u00bb Curtis Cup\nPosted by Peter Dennis on Jun 12, 2016 in England, USGA | 0 comments\nThere were several former Spirit players competing in the Curtis Cup this weekend, including Mariel Galdiano, Hannah O\u2019Sullivan, Meghan MacLaren, Leonna Maguire and Bronte Law. The GB&I team bested the Americans 11 1/2 to 8 1/2.\nIt was only the third GB&I victory in the biennial competition over the last 20 years, two of which have come in the Republic of Ireland. GB&I took the 1996 Match at Killarney Golf & Fishing Club, then endured a seven-Match losing streak to the Americans before winning again in 2012 at The Nairn Golf Club in Scotland. That Match saw GB&I rally on the final day for a one-point decision.\nIt was Bronte Law, however, that had the week of a lifetime.\nIn the same week she was named the recipient of the 2016 Annika Award for being college golf\u2019s female player of the year, the 21-year-old from England added one more impressive item to her growing portfolio.\nLaw completed only the second 5-0 week in a Curtis Cup \u2013 LPGA Tour star Stacy Lewis was the first to achieve it in 2008 \u2013 by helping Great Britain and Ireland to an 11\u00bd-8\u00bd victory over the USA at Dun Laoghaire Golf Club. She punctuated her third \u2013 and likely last \u2013 appearance in the biennial competition by rallying to beat Mika Liu, 1 up, in Sunday singles. The clinching point had come moments earlier from teammate Meghan MacLaren, but everyone surrounding the 18th green knew who the star of the week was.\nCongratulations to all the players who competed this week.",

        "raw_content": "Click Here to Download the Fall 2017 School of the Bible Information Catalog\n\u201cMy people are destroyed for lack of knowledge\u2026\u201d \u2014 Hosea 4.6\nDear Fellow Laborer, In Hosea chapter four, God pronounced judgment upon the nation of Israel, stating that there was no \u201cknowledge of God in the land.\u201d Sadly, this same pronouncement could in many ways apply to our own country as well \u2014 even within the church there seems to be a great lack of understanding regarding the Word of God and the basic fundamentals of the Christian faith. In an effort to combat this crippling trend, the Summit Baptist Church is launching the Summit Baptist School of the Bible. This evening study program will begin meeting this fall for a total of six weeks, offering two separate study courses each night: Christian Living & Teaching the Scriptures. The classes will be offered free of charge and are open to all individuals wishing to grow closer to the Lord and increase their knowledge of the Holy Scriptures. Please pray for us as we launch this program.\nWhat Is the School of the Bible? The School of the Bible is a Bible training program that is dedicated to helping believers expand their understanding of the Bible as well as equip them for greater service in their local church and beyond. Classes will be held at the Summit Baptist Church, located at 1202 Cedar Springs Rd., Sugar Grove, Virginia. The school is designed for members and workers serving in local churches, including young preachers, deacons, Sunday School teachers, youth and children\u2019s workers, Bible study leaders, and anyone else who may simply desire to deepen their Bible knowledge and increase their effectiveness in serving the Lord.\nPurpose: The School of the Bible follows the Biblical pattern given in II Timothy 2:2, which says, \u201cAnd the things which thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.\u201d This verse permeates every course and every lesson. Through prepared materials and instruction, and through personal study of God\u2019s Word, students will be equipped to be \u201cable to teach others also.\u201d They will also be challenged to be filled with the Spirit of God, and to be used of the Lord to commit His Word to others.\nGoals: Upon completion of each School of the Bible course of study, students will be able to: 1) Confidently understand the overall subject matter covered; 2) Engage others about their faith in Christ, as well as show others the way of salvation; 3) Present Biblical answers concerning key subjects of Bible doctrine; and 4) Determine to teach others the purpose and mission of the New Testament church.\nAdmission Requirements: & Costs 1) Individuals of all ages are invited to enroll in the School of the Bible, though the class is recommended for people 13 and older; 2) No previous educational experience or credential is required of students. Enrollment is open to all who have a desire to learn more of God\u2019s Word and to be further trained to serve in God\u2019s work. The Summit Baptist School of the Bible is free to everyone to enjoy.\nGraduation Requirements: Even if an individual is unable to attend every class, they are more than welcomed to attend single night sessions as their schedule permits; however, students who complete all the course requirements will be recognized by a graduation ceremony during the evening ceremony of November 5, 2017. Requirements for graduation are as follows: 1) The student will attend 4 of the 6 night sessions offered; 2) Listen to the audio of any sessions missed; and 3) Complete all \u201cassigned work\u201d (typically Scripture reading).\nFall 2017 Courses Offered: The Summit Baptist School of the Bible will be offering the following two courses during the 2017 fall semester: Christian Living & Teaching the Scriptures.\nDifficulty Level & Tests: Though the material presented through the Summit Baptist School of the Bible will be extraordinarily great, students will find that completing the course of study will not be academically difficult. We fully understand that every person learns at a different pace\u2014rather than focus on tests, our desire is simply to see God\u2019s people faithfully complete the course of study.\n2017 Classes Offered\nFall 2017 Classes Offered\nChristian Living \u2014 Reviewing the fundamental precepts of the Christian life in hopes of aiding the student in becoming more effective in their local church and closer in their walk with Christ. A great emphasis will be placed upon personal Bible study and strengthening an individual walk with Christ.\nTeaching the Scriptures \u2014 Practical instruction on teaching the Bible effectively. Biblical methods of teaching are explored and learned. This course is particularly helpful to Sunday School teachers, beginning preachers and Christians desiring to expand their level of service in their local church. Bible study leaders and parents who wish to teach the Bible in their homes may find this class helpful.\n\u201cChristian Living\u201d Schedule\nMeets Every Monday\nClass Times: 7 p.m. to 7:40 p.m.\nSeptember 18: Biblical Salvation\nSeptember 25: The Holy Scriptures\nOctober 2: Praying Effectively\nOctober 9: Midterm Break\u2014No Classes Scheduled\nOctober 16: A Call to Live Differently\nOctober 23: A Call to Serve\nOctober 30: Understanding Spiritual Warfare\nClass Times: 7:50 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.\nSeptember 18: Seeing People as God Sees Them\nSeptember 25: He That Winneth Souls Is Wise\nOctober 2: Preaching & Teaching Like Jesus\nOctober 16: The Messengers God Uses\nOctober 23: Dissecting the Word: Expository Teaching\nOctober 30: Sharing Your Powerful Story\nIndividuals are not required to register, however, by filling out the form below and notifying us of your intent to attend the classes will help us better prepare.

This legends game is the perfect opportunity to bring people together and it should be a great day with favourite players from the past out on the Bob Lucas Stadium pitch. It\u2019ll be exciting when the names of the players start to get announced and it\u2019ll be a real family day.\u201d\n\u201cWe are not just interested in preparing the first team week in week out and we are trying to reach out to the community and with the backing of the board, we want people to feel part of something. Moving the first team forward is obviously a priority but we are always trying to improve and make things more inclusive for everyone.\u201d\n\u201cThe future is bright and for it to remain bright we need to make it feel good for the young and the old and everyone in and around the club. Raising money for local charities, when we can, is fantastic and we look forward to welcoming the Weldmar Hospice Care Trust as our charity partners on the day.\u201d\n\u201cWith the pre-season we looked at what would be a good mix and a benefit us. We felt the good relationship we have with AFC Bournemouth was something we could use and we look forward to hosting them for the first game. It\u2019s a good first friendly to have and their players as well as ours will be ready to go. We chose a 1pm kick off in the hope that England get to the World Cup QF for a 3pm kick off!\u201d\n\u201cWe look forward to welcoming Exeter back and hopefully there can be a good turn out for that, in what could be our hardest friendly. The thinking with the Kingstonian game was to give ourselves an understanding and a bit of an insight to what we can expect from the teams around that area.\u201d\n\u201cBath City will be a good test as will the games against Wimborne and Winchester which will lead us into the start of the season. It is a well rounded pre season, with plenty of variety.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019ve done a lot early but we still have some irons in the fire. As always we will always look at what is right for us and who can fit our remit. Don\u2019t be fooled that we are done in terms of incomings.\u201d\n\u201cWe are pleased to have kept the bulk of the squad. They have had a good break and they are now into their first stages of preparation for Pre-Season. It\u2019s been great to welcome Jordan Seabright and Tony Lee, both will add to our squad and it\u2019s also pleasing to add Robbie Yates as our goalkeeping coach. He will be a very important member of our team.\n\u201cPre-Season is always an opportunity to take a look at some younger players and trialists. The staff are chomping at the bit to get back to work, not that we really stop! It\u2019s exciting times and it\u2019ll be an interesting season with some different places to go.\n\u201cI\u2019ve heard some people say that it won\u2019t be as strong a League this season, but I\u2019m not sure where that comes from because we haven\u2019t seen the teams yet. If we had to start back tomorrow, we would be happy to do so. We already feel ready!\u201d\n\u2190 Legends Game: Weymouth vs AFC Bournemouth\nGarry Hill to be Manager for Weymouth Legends game \u2192\n\u2018We were slow out of the blocks\u2019 admits Weymouth\u2019s Mark Molesley\nWeymouth Fans Warm Invite From Dorchester Cricket Club\nMark Molesley enthused by Weymouth performance",

        "title": "Details on Mormon Missionary Restrictions in Russia",
        "raw_content": "Details on Mormon Missionary Restrictions in Russia\nPosted by Geoff Openshaw | Jul 20, 2016 | Church Administration, Religious Freedom\nWe talk a lot about religious freedom nowadays. If you were to play some kind of Mormon drinking game equivalent\u2014like dirty soda shots\u2014during General Conference, you could get quite the fizzy rush out of the number of times religious freedom is mentioned from the pulpit. And while religious freedom is an issue of global importance, its nature is decidedly different in the United States, where folks are freaking out about bathrooms, compared to Russia, where effective today, Mormon missionaries volunteers are barred from virtually any sort of traditional missionary activity because of Russia\u2019s new anti-terror law.\nAs we\u2019ve plumbed the depths of this issue on our weekly podcast, we\u2019ve sought some info from the ground. And now we have it. In a letter sent to missionaries from the president of one of Russia\u2019s missions volunteer associations, we learned about some of the very specific ins and outs of Russia\u2019s new law, and the true cost of being subject to kings. Bear in mind this is one letter from one mission, so your mileage may very, but we can\u2019t imagine the situation being much different in other Russian missions, especially when Salt Lake is knee-deep in this stuff.\nWhile the law took effect today, July 20, Church volunteers were encouraged to have amended behavior and scheduled activities to be in compliance no later than the 19th.\nFirst off, the word \u201cmissionary\u201d is now officially associated with \u201cactivities that are no longer legal\u201d in Russia. Ergo, everyone has to be called a \u201cvolunteer.\u201d This isn\u2019t just a cute colloquialism, either. From the top down, the word \u201cmissionary\u201d is gone from the lexicon. Done.\nBut it\u2019s not just associated with vocabulary. Who were once missionaries are now effectively no longer actual missionaries. It\u2019s a paradigm shift in the way the Church exists in Russia.\nAs for other required changes in behavior:\nVolunteers are not to engage in any form of public contacting, be it on the street or on transportation, or traditional door knocking. Nothing in public.\nVolunteers are not to distribute religious literature of any kind.\nVolunteers are not to offer any form of invitation or engage in any (formerly) missionary activity.\nVolunteers may engage in everyday conversations with Russians, but must make no effort to bring up religion.\nVolunteers may offer simple responses to inquiries about what they are doing in Russia, but are not to discuss doctrine or teachings publicly, even if asked.\nIf someone asks to learn more about the gospel, volunteers are to reiterate that they are not missionaries, but are here to help local church members. They may still give out a church building\u2019s address. (The letter has a note that official, scripted wording to situations where an individual presses a volunteer is still in development in Salt Lake.)\nVolunteers are encouraged to use very particular phrasing when engaged in discussion with police or state officials, and stress that they do not engage in missionary activities. The Church is also referred to as the \u201cCentralized Religious Organization \u2018The Religious Association of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.'\u201d\nReligious discussions with members are allowed, even in the home, but no discussions may take place with nonmembers.\nAny requests to do service must go through mission office approval. Volunteers are not to approach other organizations about doing service.\nVolunteers in Russia are also undergoing a two-week moratorium on much of anything, particularly engaging in limited conversations with strangers. This is in an effort to keep a low profile and start the work of changing the public\u2019s perceptions of Mormon volunteers as proselytizing missionaries.\nThe letter describes the new restrictions as similar to any other mission rules that require adjustment. At the risk of editorializing, that seems almost unreasonably sunny. But the volunteers in Russia will still find ways to be effective.\nAs Matt Martinich pointed out, the term \u201cvolunteers\u201d is used in other countries, like Turkey and Belarus. Obviously, Belarus is hardly a bastion of human rights and civil society, and Turkey is, well, who knows what Turkey is at this point.\nHow much longer will Mormon missionaries/volunteers be in Russia? That is what is most curious here. Sure, the current crop will serve its time, but will these volunteer cadres be replenished and chug along with new rules, or are we eventually going to see numbers drop and missions consolidated? In my completely uninformed view, it\u2019s hard to see things continuing at the same personnel level in six or nine months.\nThis is a difficult situation, to be sure, but all is not lost. We don\u2019t understand the rationale behind everything. We know that God allows man to be man, and that His work will still go forward even if new, creative means must be employed to carry it out. So I will choose to be optimistic about things and remember that Russia might attempt to shut our missionaries into their churches, but it can do very little to quell the spirit carried by these men and women.\nPreviousBook of Mormon Lesson 27: \u201cAll Things Denote There Is a God\u201d\nNextEpisode #337 \u2013 The Trailer of the Sea\nWest Africa Area to Celebrate Major Milestone with Creation of 100th Stake\nLDS Church to Produce New Live-Action Book of Mormon Video Series",

        "raw_content": "Proudly Serving Stanton, MI & Beyond Since 1987\nFor over 30 years, Tingley & Associates has provided a full range of land surveying services in Stanton, MI and surrounding communities. Our land surveyors and team serve clients across Montcalm, Gratiot, Ionia, and Mecosta Counties in Michigan. Since our beginning, we have focused on providing our clients with timely, deliverable services and results.\nIn addition to general land surveying services, our company is the designated surveyor for the remonumentation of Montcalm and Gratiot Counties. This program began in 1991 when the State of Michigan decided to remonument all sections and \u00bc corners of each section of each township in each county throughout the state. This program is funded by a state grant.\nThis type of survey shows easements, rights-of-way, improvements and other elements which impact land ownership. It was jointly established by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and American Congress on Surveying and Mapping (ACSM). An ALTA/ACSM is often required for real estate transactions and provides a title company with the information needed to insure the title.\nA boundary survey is completed to define the true property corners of a parcel of land, as well as determine the property lines as described in a deed. Markers or monuments for these boundaries are typically iron rods, concrete monuments or pipes in the ground, but may also be blazes in trees, tacks, or piled stone corners. This type of survey also may show the limitations imposed on the property by state or local regulations. In addition, it indicates the extent of encroachments or easements.\nArchitectural Site Plans\nAn architectural site plan is a proposed plan for a construction site. It includes all of the proposed and existing conditions including structures, roadways, topography, and wetlands delineation and location, if necessary. In addition, this plan may include drainage flows, endangered species habitats, FEMA Federal Flood Insurance Reference Maps, hydrology, and traffic patterns.\nFEMA Elevation Surveys\nA FEMA Elevation Survey is used to determine is a property is above or below the base flood elevation. It is prepared by a licensed surveyor or engineer and is used to determine what type of flood insurance policy matches your needs. This is especially important if your property is located within a flood zone. If your property is about the flood plain elevation, we can fill out the forms to remove it from the flood plain.\nMortgage Inspection\nA mortgage inspection is used to determine the location of encroachments, improvements, and easements on a parcel of land. It is NOT a survey. Lending institutions usually order this type of inspection so a buyer can secure a loan for new property, refinancing, or new construction loans. It is often a pre-condition for a mortgage loan.\nA subdivision survey is used to split up a tract of land into smaller parcels. It helps to determine the location or commercial and residential lots, roads and rights-of-way, drainage and utility lines, and more. Once the small parcels are created, concrete monuments, iron rods, or pins are driven into the ground to mark the lot corners and curve ends and the County Register of Deeds records the details of the new plat.\nConstruction staking take architectural or engineered plans and stakes the position and layout of new structures such as utilities, buildings, roads, parking areas, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, driveways and more.\nFor more information about our land surveying and site planning services, to schedule service, or request a free estimate, please contact us today at 989.831.5322.",

        "raw_content": "Carillion collapse: Directors 'drove firm off a cliff'\nCarillion's board presided over a \"rotten corporate culture\" and was both \"responsible and culpable\" for its catastrophic demise, concluded a report from two influential parliamentary select committees that was published today.\nFurthermore, MPs highlighted \"terrible failures\" in regulation and calls on the government to carry out an \"ambitious and wide-ranging set of reforms\" to corporate accountability.\nOn the former Carillion board, it says careful consideration should be given to whether they breached their duties under the Companies Act and whether they should be disqualified from ever serving as directors.\nCarillion had around 43,000 employees, including 19,000 in the UK.\nWhat are the directors accused of?\nThey are guilty of failing to tackle the crisis at Carillion, failing to insist the company paint a true picture of its crippling financial problems.\nAlthough PwC had variously advised the company, its pension schemes and government on Carillion contracts, it was the least conflicted and was named special managers to the insolvency process.\nThe inquiry laid into the directors for presenting themselves as \"self-pitying victims of a maelstrom of coincidental and unforeseeable mishaps\" when they appeared before parliament. Former finance director Richard Adam - described in the report as \"the architect\" of the firm's highly aggressive accounting policies - says he disputes various quotes attributed to him.\nWhat are the auditors accused of?\nThe 100-page report also took aim at the big four audit firms, after they \"waved through\" the indebted construction firm's accounts.\nThe report was also critical of Deloitte, which it said had failed in its risk management and financial controls role despite being paid \u00a310m, and EY, which provided failed turnaround advice while being paid \u00a310.8m.\nBig Four giants Deloitte, PwC, EY and KPMG face extinction if they fail to learn the lessons from the failure of contracting giant Carillion, the head of Britain's leading accountancy institution warned this morning.\n\"The Competition and Markets Authority must now look at the break-up of the Big Four accountancy firms to help increase competition and deal with conflicts of interest\".\nBut a KPMG spokesman said it believed it had conducted its audits of Carillion \"appropriately\", and Ernst & Young said it was \"extremely disappointed that despite all efforts the business was not rescued\".\n\"Our priority has been to keep public services running safely across the country while saving thousands of jobs\", said PwC chairman and senior partner Kevin Ellis. \"Because if we don't fix this I don't think we're going to have a profession in 20 years time\".\nVery few of those involved in the scandal escape censure, from the highly paid and \"delusional\" directors to the even more highly paid \"cosy club\" of auditors, the timid and ineffective regulators - and the government.\nHowever, the MPs also concluded that successive governments have nurtured a business environment and pursued a model of service delivery that made a collapse like Carillion's \"almost inevitable\", while it has also criticised the Crown Representative system - which assigns civil servants to monitor companies in order to provide updates on their performance - as \"semi-professional and part-time\" and called for an immediate review.\nThe document said: \"When swathes of public services are affected, close monitoring of exposure to risks would seem essential\".\nFrank Field, who chairs the work and pension committee, said: \"Same old story\". \"British industry is too important to be left in the hands of the likes of the shysters at the top of Carillion\".\n\"That's why we have recently announced a number of measures to support Government suppliers - strengthening our commitment to prompt payment; protecting staff, businesses and small suppliers from irresponsible directors\".\n'We welcome the report from the joint select committee and will respond fully in due course'.\n\u00a326 million set aside for new council houses\nHe added: \"I am proud to launch Building Council Homes for Londoners - the first ever City Hall programme dedicated to new council housing\".\nJust three were caught in between - hearing first one, then the other when played again, or a mix of the two sounds.

        "raw_content": "A US -sponsored draft resolution that for the first time would have condemned the militant Islamic group Hamas, which controls Gaza, failed to win the required two-thirds majority in the U.N. General Assembly.\nAhead of the vote, U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley accused those who pushed for the two-thirds threshold of \"double standards\" and of trying to torpedo the resolution.\nBut the vote on the resolution to condemn Hamas was 87 in favour against 57 opposed, with 33 abstentions - a plurality but below the two-thirds requirement to adopt it.\nShe stressed that Hamas' charter \"openly calls for the destruction of Israel\" and cited a variety of \"barbaric terrorist tactics\" it has used including suicide bombers and thousands of rockets, flaming kites and balloons.\nThe United States changed its initial draft resolution to get backing from the 28-nation European Union, adding that it supports a comprehensive peace agreement \"bearing in mind relevant United Nations resolutions\". The ambassador for Saudi Arabia was fierce in his criticism of Israel.\nNabil Abu Rudeinah, Abbas's spokesman, said in a statement that the vote against the resolution \"is a message to the American administration and Israel that all the conspiracies against the Palestinian leadership will not come to pass\". \"Israel has no respect for this organization of which it is a member\".\nThe Palestinians have severed ties with the Trump administration since the decision a year ago to move the United States embassy to Jerusalem and declare the city Israel's capital.\n\"The draft condemnation of Hamas in the UN General Assembly received a sweeping majority by countries that stood against Hamas\", he said. \"The reality can not be avoided any longer: the UN is the headquarters of modern antisemitism and the people of the United States should rescind their support accordingly\".\nChina and Russian Federation were among those voting the measure down.\n\"You should be ashamed of yourselves, wait until you have to deal with terrorism in your own countries\", he told the chamber.\nAfter the USA draft's failure, the UNGA voted 156-6 to adopt an Irish resolution that called for \"the achievement, without delay, of a comprehensive and lasting peace in the Middle East\" on the basis of United Nations resolutions, specially the December 2016 measure.\nHaley had been working with the European Union and other regional blocs to get the support for the USA resolution, which it did, Falk said.\n\"Our four countries will vote against the resolution\".\nDespite Riyadh's close ties to Washington, Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the UN Abdullah Al-Mouallimi urged member states to reject the U.S. measure.\nAt one protest in Khan Younis, a town in southern half of the coastal enclave, hundreds of Palestinians marched through the streets, with many hoisting Palestinian flags.\nLast month, the General Assembly - as part of a raft of anti-Israel resolutions - condemned the alleged \"occupation\" of the Golan Heights. The U.S. voted against the move, a change from its decision to abstain in 2017.",

        "title": "Dynamo International \u2013 Street Workers Network | UN: Children in street situations lost in UN translation",
        "raw_content": "A serious translation error occurred in several language versions of the General comment No 21 on children in street situations.\nAs Daniel Stoecklin recalls in his editorial (PDF 246 Ko) published on the website of the International Institute for the Rights of the Child, the English version entitled \u201cGeneral Comment on Children in Street Situations\u201d was adopted first. It was then translated into the other official languages \u200b\u200bof the United Nations (French, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic).\nBut the French version refers to \u201cGeneral Comment on Street Children\u201d. In the Spanish version, the term \u201cstreet children\u201d (ni\u00f1os de la calle) is also used. The Chinese version \u8857\u5934 \u6d41\u6d6a \u513f\u7ae5 (jietou liulang ertong) is not an accurate translation either because it refers to \u201cchildren wandering in the streets\u201d.\nExpert on child\u2019s rights and professor of sociology at the University of Geneva, Daniel Stoecklin, calls on members of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) that monitors implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, to promptly correct the error.\n\u201cStreet children\u201d vs \u201cChildren in street situations\u201d\n\u201cThese translations are plain wrong and many (including the undersigned) have asked questions of the Committee, which claims to have \u201cfound this anomaly but without being able to identify any justifications\u201d (in a personal communication), and pledged to issue a \u201ccorrigendum\u201d. This will restore consistency with the official terminology of the CRC, which, since 2009, has adopted the term \u201cchildren in street situations\u201d, with notable encouragement from Jean Zermatten, the then president (Stoecklin, 2017). The call for input on this comment was therefore made under the heading \u201cchildren in street situations\u201d.\nOne of those active in the field, Edwin Boev\u00e9, Director of Dynamo International-Street Workers Network, noted in his email of 24 January to the CRC that:\n\u201cIn fact, the term \u2018children in street situations\u2019 illustrates well what the general comment demonstrates, namely the fact that these are children \u2026 \u2018who have developed close links with public places and for whom the street is an essential element of their identity and their daily life\u2019. Children who find themselves, for a short medium or long period, in the street and for many and varied reasons. Every child\u2019s situation is unique and singular. The term \u201cstreet situation\u201d encompasses the fact that it is indeed a passage, a dynamic situation, and that it is not fixed.\u201d\n\u201cStreet children\u201d: a stigmatizing and simplistic term\nThe emphasis on the dynamics of the street situation, and therefore on causes that cannot be reduced to the responsibility of either the child or its parents, avoids the stigma attached to the expression \u201cstreet child\u201d (or \u201cchild of the streets\u201d).\nTo understand the fundamental difference between these two expressions, let\u2019s take a more concrete case and replace the word \u201cchild\u201d with any first name. There is a world of difference between \u201cPeter of the streets\u201d and \u201cPeter in a street situation\u201d:\nThe first is a stigmatizing reduction, implying that Peter is a ragamuffin who has all the traits of a street child\nThe second illustrates the situation, as experienced by Peter, looking for a temporary solution to his problems\nThe spirit of the General Comment n\u00b0 21 at risk\nThe consequences are important: repression or conscience-stricken victimization on the one hand, support for a child exercising his or her rights on the other. Beyond the literal translation error, the question is not just rhetorical: it threatens the very spirit of general comment by conveying regressive concepts and approaches. That the Committee is quickly correcting this error is to be welcomed.\nEditorial of Daniel Stoecklin (PDF 246 KB) published on 23 February 2018 on the website of the International Institute for the Rights of the Child\nContributions of Daniel Stoecklin for the General comment on Children in street situations, 12 April 2016 (PDF 171 KB)\nLetter (PDF 300 Ko) sent on 24 January 2018 by Edwin de Boev\u00e9 to Mr. Gastaud, member of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child\nContribution of the International Catholic Child Bureau (BICE) to the draft General Comment on Children in Street Situations, April 2016 (PDF in French, 161 KB)\nContribution of del Comit\u00e9 de los Derechos del Ni\u00f1o/a \u2013 Uruguay (CDNU) to the draft General Comment on Children in April 2016 (PDF in Spanish 184 KB)",

        "title": "Tzu Chi Missions",
        "raw_content": "Home About Us Missions\nIn 1966, Dharma Master Cheng Yen established the Tzu Chi Foundation in Hualien, on the east coast of Taiwan. With the spirit of self-discipline, diligence, frugality, and perseverance, Tzu Chi set out to help the poor and relieve suffering. Over time, the foundation\u2019s mission started with Charity and extended into Medicine, Education, and Humanistic Culture. Tzu Chi originated in the remote Hualien area and expanded to all five major continents of the world with chapters and offices in 47 countries. Tzu Chi provides aid to over 69 nations. Its volunteers selflessly contribute through a mindset of gratitude, expressing their sincerest care and support to each and every individual in need.\nThe shared goal of Tzu Chi volunteers is to cultivate sincerity, integrity, faith, and honesty within while exercising kindness, compassion, joy, and selflessness to humanity through concrete actions. Transcending the bounds of race, nationality, language, and religion, they serve the world under the notion that \u201cwhen others are hurting, we feel their pain; when others suffer, we feel their sorrow\u201d. Not only do the volunteers endeavor to promote the universal value of \u201cGreat Love,\u201d they also fully employ the humanitarian spirit of Chinese culture to its utmost. Tzu Chi Foundation\u2019s \u201cFour Major Missions\u201d consist of Charity, Medicine, Education, and Humanity. Furthermore, considering ongoing efforts in Bone Marrow Donation, Environmental Protection, Community Volunteerism, and International Relief, these eight concurrent campaigns are collectively known as \u201cTzu Chi\u2019s Eight footprints\u201d\n\u201cEducating the rich to help the poor; inspiring the poor to realize their riches\u201d\nTzu Chi pays attention not only to the effectiveness of its aid and assistance; it also focuses on bringing out the good in everyone. By helping the poor, the rich get to feel the happiness of giving and find the true meaning of life. Likewise, the poor are motivated to harbor love abundantly and help out those less fortunate than themselves, so that they break away from perceived helplessness and despair. Consequently, more people become willing to help out others while enriching themselves through contribution.\n\u201cPatient-centered medical care that respects patients as teachers\u201d\nAmong the four sufferings of life, illness is the most painful. During her charity visits, Dharma Master Cheng Yen realized that many families became poor after following some major illness. Therefore, she founded the Tzu Chi Free Clinic for the Poor in 1972, which began Tzu Chi\u2019s mission of medicine. In 1986, the Hualien Tzu Chi General Hospital opened, and its guiding principles were \u201crespect life\u201d and \u201cPatient-centered\u201d. Tzu Chi Taiwan\u2019s medical network was completed by the openings of additional hospitals in Yuli, Guanshan, Dalin, Taipei, and Taichung. The medical staff, supported by large teams of volunteers, aim to perfect the \u201cFour Entireties\u201d of patient care: the entire treatment process, the patient\u2019s entire body, the patient\u2019s entire family, and the entire medical team. The goal is to ensure proper care of the body, mind, and soul of the patient. From city to countryside, from the mountain to the sea, Tzu Chi\u2019s comprehensive medical network provides the people of Taiwan with top quality medical service that consists of the latest technology and the warm human touch.\n\u201cEducating children to be moral and upright\u201d\nTo foster outstanding and compassionate future medical professionals, Dharma Master Cheng Yen established the Tzu Chi Nursing College in 1989. The Master also wanted to address the lack of education and employment opportunities confronting aboriginal girls of Eastern Taiwan. In July 2000, Tzu Chi completed the establishment of its education program offering a well rounded curriculum and runs the full curriculum from kindergarten, elementary school and middle school to high school, college, and graduate studies. The shared objective of Tzu Chi schools and universities is the delivery of superior education where \u201ckindness, compassion, joy, and selfless giving\u201d is the school motto, \u201dRespect for Life and Faith in Human Nature\u201d is the guideline, and \u201cEducation of Virtue, education of life, and education of the entire person\u201d is the goal.\n\u201cRecording the examples of goodness and integrity for future generations\u201d\nWhat is \u201cCulture?\u201d It consists of shining examples for the human character that becomes revered legacy in recorded history. Every one of Tzu Chi\u2019s missions takes the individual human being as foundation. Each person is expected to behave in a moral way with proper manners and to have respect for Mother Nature. Each person is also expected to cultivate his inherent integrity and to maintain appropriate demeanor in interacting with others. When Tzu Chi first started its mission of charity, the seeds of humanity were planted deep. Later, the Mission of Medicine and the Mission of Education also carried integral connections with humanity.\nThe calling of the Mission of Humanistic Culture is to purify the human mind, to pacify our society, to help those who suffer, and to rectify frenzied and chaotic acts. The Mission of Humanistic Culture bears witness to historical eras, creates new history for mankind, and establishes cycles of love and goodness.\n\u201cCaring for people in suffering in the global village\u201d\n\u201cBodhisattvas exist to relieve the suffering of mankind\u201d. With providing help to flood victims of Bangladesh in 1991, Tzu Chi marked the start of its international relief efforts. International Relief not only provides emergency materials like food, clothing, grain seeds, and medical materials, it goes further to rebuild houses and schools, set up water supply systems, and offer free clinics. Though the aid projects vary, the ideal of \u201crespecting life\u201d is adhered to all the same.\nFrom its beginnings as a local charity in Taiwan, Tzu Chi has become a broad-based international humanitarian organization. In recognition of its global aid programs across five continents, Tzu Chi became the first Non-Government-Organized charity group in Taiwan to attain association status with the United Nations Department of Information in 2003.\n\u201cDonating your marrow to save a life without harming yourself\u201d\nThe sight of patients suffering from blood diseases is unbearable for Dharma Master Cheng Yen. Therefore, after confirming that bone marrow transfer can save lives without harming the donor, the Master started the Tzu Chi Marrow Donor Registry in 1993, which was renamed in 2002 to The Buddhist Tzu Chi Bone Marrow Stem Cell Centre. On top of its original marrow data bank functions, this institution has evolved to include ongoing stem cell research and gene therapy, as well as the establishment of an umbilical cord blood repository, all of which serve to usher in new hopes in human medical treatments. Through all out campaigns and enthusiastic participations by Tzu Chi volunteers, many kind hearted people have been motivated into taking the blood tests required for marrow matching. In every single case, the volunteers were there to encourage and support the donor, and their efforts demonstrate the intricate levels of compassion present in Taiwan. The contributions of Great Love from the generous marrow donors are a Great Love pure and pristine. It is a \u201clove pure like clear water\u201d.\n\u201cPracticising environmental protection to live in harmony with Mother Earth\u201d\nIn a 1990 speech, Dharma Master Cheng Yen called on the public \u201cto carry out environmental conservation with applauding hands\u201d. Since then, Tzu Chi volunteers have been earnestly practicing environmental protection. To promote waste reduction and motivate recycling regardless of age or social stature and without fear of filth, conservation volunteers humbly and selflessly give all of their care to the earth. From protecting our earthly environment to protecting our mental environment, Tzu Chi advocates a healthy diet of more fruits and vegetables and discourages meat consumption. If we live a simple lifestyle and reduce our carbon footprint while constantly cherishing the earth, we shall slow down the global warming crisis.\n\u201cBy supporting and caring for each other, they make a beautiful neighbourhood\u201d\nSince its campaign on Community Volunteering in 1996, Tzu Chi volunteers are encouraged to cultivate themselves in their own community, through the sharing at group gathering, their professionalism and volunteering spirit are elevated. To recruit more volunteers, they will carry out \"Spread the Seeds of Love\" tea parties, encouraging the neighborhoods to join the Great Love activities. Also, they actively look for people in need in their community. The founding of the \"Community Volunteering\" system is a realization of the Confucius ideal \"The Beauty of Community\". Through the initiative of the volunteers, a network of inter-connected communities is set up, so the community residents can live at ease in the peaceful community, and they can also help and watch other communities.",

        "raw_content": "NYY 7, MIN 2: It Was Close, Until It Wasn\u2019t\nWe saw plenty of flashes of how good Kyle Gibson could be coming into this year, but the end result was still a grand total of 127 starts and a 4.70 ERA. Of course, the year he finally puts it all together, so many of his teammates experience a similar backslide that Gibson was once known for.\nGibby had another strong start tonight, but the bats and bullpen squandered any hope of victory.\nMulti-Hit Games: Polanco (2-for-4), Forsythe (2-for-4), Grossman (2-for-4, 2B)\nWPA of 0.1 or higher: Gibson .169\nWPA of -0.1 or lower: Astudillo .103, Busenitz -.268\nAfter holding the Yankees to one run over 5 2/3 innings, Gibson\u2019s ERA is down to 3.67 this season. He gave up four hits, walked four and struck out five. The only run he surrendered was a solo homer by Gary Sanchez in the sixth inning.\nGibby exited and the game went haywire. Alan Busenitz walked the first two batters of the seventh inning and the Yankees wound up scoring six runs on five hits and four walks just in that frame alone. It seemed to be the half inning of eternity.\nNone of the pitching mattered a whole lot anyway because the Twins couldn\u2019t score. New York had already built a 7-0 lead by the time the Twins finally scratched across a pair of runs in the eighth inning.\nThe Twins have been averaging just 3.90 runs per game since the Eduardo Escobar trade. You\u2019re not going to win many games in the American League with an offense like that.\nRobbie Grossman was 2-for-4 with an RBI double. Logan Forsythe and Jorge Polanco also collected a pair of hits each. Polanco committed his 11th error in just his 58th game at shortstop this season.\nTue vs. NYY, 7:10 pm CT: TBD vs. Sonny Gray\nWed vs. NYY, 7:10 pm CT: Jake Odorizzi vs. Luis Severino\nThu at KC, 7:15 pm CT: TBD\nMIN 3, KC 1: Walk-Off Willians\nKC 4, MIN 1: Good, Great, GRAND, WONDERFUL!\nMIN 10, KC 6: It\u2019s a Lot Easier to Beat Bad Teams\nThis team didn't have room for Aaron Hicks. What a shame, and how foolish it was and is.\n10 walks. Wouldn't it be nice if the farm was even close to ready when the get the opportunities.\nCall me depressed and disgusted with this team.\nJerr, SF Twins Fan and bighat like this\nMan it seems like this team has just stopped playing.\n\"Don't ever give up.\" Jimmy V.\nKudos to Gibson. Even though he labored at tad bit (4 walks), he still turned in a solid start against a very potent lineup.\nFelt bad for Busenitz (don't judge, I will always stand up for pitchers). He just couldn't locate his offspeed stuff last night, and when that happens hitters are just going to sit on the FB. Makes for a rough outing and night.\nIf you can notice that Busenitz can't locate a pitch, why can't Molitor and the rest of the coaches? Why not pull him rather than wait for the inevitable?\nDo Molitor's bosses ever ask him questions like this, I wonder?\nKyle Gibson may be the #2 highlight of the season (behind Rosario).He may not be an ace that will be THE solution, but he certainly is not part of the problem moving forward.\nThat seems to be the millions dollar question at times . Although, with the season essentially done for a while now, why not leave him in that situation for a bit and let him figure it out. I know that is not always a popular decision, and as fans we usually don't want to see that, but the team can take that data and what they see with their own eyeballs and make a better informed decision in the offseason (hopefully ).\nKyle Gibson may be the #2 highlight of the season (behind Rosario). He may not be an ace that will be THE solution, but he certainly is not part of the problem moving forward.\nthe problem comes up when the team decides to pay him a big money contract in the off-season due to one good season in the last three and the clock strikes midnight next year. Will the new FO repeat the mistake Ryan made with Phil Hughes?\nPolanco might not be a short stop. Is he playing second at all right now, because maybe he should be.\nInstead of looking it as one good season in last three, I prefer to look at it as development.Gibson has been good since the AS break 2017.He is a different pitcher.I think this is who he now is.I wouldn't have a problem with a 3-yr extension for him.HOWEVER, in today's baseball climate, he'll likely have to sign a one or two-year deal after next season.\nInstead of looking it as one good season in last three, I prefer to look at it as development. Gibson has been good since the AS break 2017. He is a different pitcher. I think this is who he now is. I wouldn't have a problem with a 3-yr extension for him. HOWEVER, in today's baseball climate, he'll likely have to sign a one or two-year deal after next season.\nIt\u2019s worth remembering that Gibson will be 31 at the end of October. He may be a different pitcher, but that isn\u2019t going to prevent an inevitable age based decline. He\u2019s under team control in 2019. After that, QO him. If he accepts, fine. If not, take the pick and let someone else pay for his declining years.\nSince Phil Hughes\u2019 name and contract were mentioned, he was only 28 when he signed the 5 year extension. I didn\u2019t like it at the time, but paying a 28 year old makes more sense than a 31 year old.\n\u2192 Article: NYY 7, MIN 2: It Was Close, Until It Wasn\u2019t",

        "raw_content": "Students at UMEI Christian High School are experiencing what it means to be a newcomer to Canada first-hand. The Faith in Action club has been learning about the war in Syria and the resulting refugee crisis for the last year. \u201cI am eager to keep students informed and passionate about what\u2019s happening in the world,\u201d said the club\u2019s leader, Mrs. Chani Wiens. \u201cHowever, I was anxious to find ways to be active in welcoming newcomers to Leamington. I think it\u2019s so important to model putting our faith into action \u2013 hence the name of the club.\u201d Wiens was excited to hear that the North Leamington United Mennonite Church was in the process of sponsoring a Syrian refugee family through Mennonite Central Committee. When they were matched with family living in a refugee camp in Lebanon, she involved the UMEI students in preparing for their arrival. \u201cWe made signs in Arabic welcoming them to Canada,\u201d explained Grade 12 student Camden Driedger. \u201cWe wanted them to know we are making the effort to understand them and their background.\u201d The club also welcomed South Essex Community Council set\ntlement workers Badiah Abdelnabi and Sylvana Sleiman in a presentation after school. The Arabic-speaking workers told stories of their experiences working with Syrian refugees settling in Leamington, and also shared some Muslim faith and cultural practices with the students. \u201cBeing in our small community, we don\u2019t know a lot about the Muslim culture so it was cool to learn about that,\u201d said Grade 11 student Hayden Epp. \u201cIt helps us better understand our new family.\u201d Elle Klassen, also in Grade 11, was surprised at how quickly newcomers are expected to integrate into Canadian life\n. \u201cIt made the whole process seem more real,\u201d Klassen explained.\nThe Faith in Action club planned a bake sale to raise money for a welcome package for the 12 year old newcomer. \u201cThrough communication with the family, we learned that she is an artist, so we purchased art supplies and a tablet with the $400 we raised,\u201d said Wiens. \u201cWe wanted her to know that there is a big group of students who care about her feeling at home here.\u201d\nWhen Wiens heard the family was arriving on April 12, she was excited to be able to invite 16 students to welcome them at Windsor Airport. They brought their welcome signs, the gift, and some traditional Mennonite baking to welcome the family of 3. Students describe the experience as \u201cincredibly powerful.\u201d \u201cWe already knew they were people just like us and that their lives in Syria were just like ours here,\u201d said Klassen. \u201cBut when you see them come off that plane, and shake their hands and say hello, it gets rid of the stigmas that still exist in your head \u2013 stigmas that you weren\u2019t even aware still existed.\u201d\nUMEI students look forward to continuing to welcome the new family to Leamington.",

It requires only one reading.\nOrdinances - An ordinance or an amendment to an ordinance is a formal and binding type of council legislation. A roll call of the council records the council's action on all ordinances. Ordinances require two readings before they become law unless they are presented as an emergency.\nReferrals - When council is not able to take definite action on a matter or when further study is required, the matter may be referred to the city manager or the city attorney for investigation, study, and a later report or action. It could also be referred to the Planning Commission for further recommendation.\nDeferrals - The council may defer action until a future date on any item, either to gather further information or to arrange a date more convenient to all concerned parties.",

        "raw_content": "Some developers recognize the coming wave and ride it. Craig Robins is one of the few who make the wave.\nFrom the 1980s onward, the Miami Beach native and University of Miami law grad led the redevelopment of South Beach Art Deco landmarks, integrating his love of art with residential and mixed-use projects. As president and CEO of real estate developer Dacra, he built real estate and, through public events, a community style that won attention nationally and internationally, which drove up the value of his real estate.\nSouth Beach was still a work in progress when two decades ago he started investing across Biscayne Bay in the all-but-abandoned Miami Design District, which he\u2019s aimed to build into a neighborhood of fashion, design and art.\n\u201cJust like with South Beach, the most central property was the least valued,\u201d Robins says. \u201cI saw an opportunity for renewal, revitalization and innovation. I saw the chance to develop a thriving creative community that could contribute to Miami. From a development perspective, it was an opportunity to juxtapose contemporary design with historic architecture and to create a place like no other.\u201d\nHis Miami Design District Associates, a joint venture of his Dacra and L Catterton Real Estate, and minority-interest holder General Growth Properties, collectively own 18 square blocks totaling 1 million square feet of buildings and 20 acres. Total investment: $1.4 billion.\nIt\u2019s chock full of luxury brands. Since 2005, the district has hosted the Design Miami/ fair, a show Robins owns in partnership with Art Basel producer MCH Swiss Exhibition and that runs during Art Basel Miami Beach in December.\nRobins on \u2026\nWhat\u2019s next for the Design District: \u201cRight now, we are expanding so it will be bigger, more cohesive, better and be the home to more luxury brands, unique cultural experiences and fine dining destinations.\n\u201cThe Miami Design District has grown to include more than 60 flagship stores by the world\u2019s most significant luxury brands; two of the city\u2019s most respected museums, the de la Cruz Collection and ICA Miami; a live musical performance series produced by Emilio Estefan; and almost two dozen restaurants are either opened or coming soon by culinary talents ranging from Michael Schwartz to Brad Kilgore.\n\u201cI love seeing what happens to a neighborhood if it\u2019s truly a creative laboratory. Since the district is an open-air urban community without a hard-and-fast footprint, we continue to innovate in how we interact with the community.\u201d\nAnd for Miami: \u201cOur art scene is growing, the tech scene is growing, and over time the city has become more and more lively with a creative and entrepreneurial spirit. Last year, South Florida was named the No. 1 location in the U.S. for startup activity.\n\u201cThe rise of cultural institutions like the P\u00e9rez Art Museum Miami, the Frost Science Museum and the Contemporary Art, Miami (ICA) located right here in the Miami Design District, also help define us as a major cultural player in the U.S.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "March 17 \u2013 Circa Survive @ Underbelly\nCirca Survive is somewhat of a Frankenstein of a rock band. The group is made up of members from former bands, such as This Day Forward, Saosin and Taken. That said, their music is expansive and dynamic, as the band members draw unique influences from each of their previous groups. Nearly every album Circa Survive has released was met with critical acclaim, including their most recent, Descensus, which was released in November. Post-hardcore band, Balance and Composure, will be an excellent opener for this show, and is just another reason not to miss this concert. Doors open at 7 p.m. and tickets are $18.\nMarch 19 \u2014 Black Lips @ Jackrabbits\nGarage rock group, Black Lips, formed in Atlanta back in 1999. Since their formation, controversy has surrounded the group, which I might add is well-warranted since the group has been known to do a number of strange things whilst performing, such as spitting, urinating and vomiting. While the group has calmed down a bit over the years, they are still best known for these antics. In recent years, Black Lips have spent more time focusing on their music and the results have proven to many that this band is not quite the one-trick pony that many thought they were. Doors open at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15. Prepare for a little crazy.\nMarch 22 \u2014 St. Augustine Record Fair @ St. Augustine Amphitheatre\nOn Sunday, March 22, St. Augustine\u2019s Record Fair will return, bigger and better than previous years, with projected attendance at over 1,000 people. ToneVendor, St. Augustine\u2019s most well-known record store, is presenting the event that will host over 35 tables featuring thousands of new and used vinyl records, CDs, music memorabilia, collectibles, turntable supplies, posters and other unique music-related items. With over 20 dealers from across the Southeast, you would be a fool to miss this event. Gates open at noon and the fair will run until 6 p.m. Best part is that this event is free! Just make sure you bring enough money for an armload of records.\nMarch 26 \u2013 Twin Shadow @ Freebird Live\nOk, so last time I did a preview for a Twin Shadow concert, it was cancelled by the time the magazine came out. Hopefully this one won\u2019t end up that way. Twin Shadow, who originally started making his \u201880s-style music back in 2000 for films, has now recorded two albums (Forget and Confess) under the Twin Shadow name. He has seen quite a bit of success with his music, especially the smash hit, \u201cFive Seconds,\u201d a song that will rip you straight back into the 1980s. This will be Twin Shadow\u2019s first performance in Jacksonville, though he was raised in Florida. Tickets are only $15 and the doors open at 8 p.m.\nMarch 28 \u2014 Enter Shikari @ Underbelly\nEnter Shikari is one of those bands who decided to do music a little differently. Back in 2003, the group formed in England and pioneered a new genre in the hardcore area dubbed, \u201celectronicore.\u201d This unique genre fuses together several elements from various genres, such as punk, metal, drum and bass, dubstep and other electronica. Enter Shikari has released several critically acclaimed albums, but have always had an extremely loyal fan base since their origins. Their live shows are just one reason for this, and if you\u2019ve never seen them before, Underbelly will be a great hosting venue to check them out. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the tickets are about $16.\nMarch 31 \u2013 Swans @ Jackrabbits\nThis experimental rock band was first formed all the way back in 1982, and after a 16-year run, lead singer and founder, Michael Gira, decided to break up the band to focus on other projects. It wasn\u2019t until 2010, over a decade later, that Gira decided to reunite the popular group. Since reforming, the band has released two of the best albums in the last five years. Both The Seer and To Be Kind were ranked on Pitchfork\u2019s \u201cTop 100 Albums of the Decade So Far.\u201d Doors open at 10 p.m. and the tickets will cost you about $20.\nTags: Jacksonville Concerts, local shows, music, twin shadow, Upcoming concerts, upcoming shows\nThe New Age of Imagination: Podcasts and the Future of Storytelling\nFestival Preview: Southeast Beast Fest",

        "raw_content": "There it was...on Facebook. The call. Who, it asked, was in charge of planning the Class of '79 forty year reunion?\nStrangely enough, my first thought was, \"Didn't we already have the 40th reunion?\" So, my second thought, \"Are we that old?\" doesn't really apply. Apparently I thought we were even older than we are.\nSo there it is. Next year, 2019, it will be forty years after I graduated from Titusville High School. Ah, memories... Hmph.\nI do have some memories that are...funny, I suppose. I had the coolest pair of peach-colored bell-bottoms. Huge bells! HUGE! God, I miss those pants. And the tiny little body that fit into them. I got crapped on by a bird flying overhead one time and the dookie ran down the back of my hair. That was nice. I cried during school. A few times. I got yelled at by a teacher for writing \"EAT ME\" on the blackboard, really, really big. (I didn't understand why it was a bad thing to do. I guess I saw Animal House but just didn't get it.)\nOur Spanish teacher ordered a banner with the mascot on it, the THS Terrier--grrrrrr!--and got a Scotty instead.\nThe Fightin' Scotties!\nPaddi, by La Sequencia at Flickr\nI didn't see that; she just told us about it. And one time, the club I was in was having a practice for our homecoming skit at Riverview so I went to the school, because the old section was called Riverview--it was originally Riverview Elementary--but they meant [the newer] Riverview Elementary, which I didn't even know existed. So, I didn't make it, obviously.\nHigh School was just plain weird. And the reunions aren't much different. There you are, older, wiser, wondering what the hell that was all about. And there they are, still the same, it seems. Still the cliques of popular girls. The studs who are now fat and bald but think they're still studs. The nerds who are now doctors and the potheads...still chill. But everyone is really nice. And they've probably changed as much as I have and look at me thinking I'm still the same.\nAnd every year the poster with the pictures of dead grads gets more and more populated.\nHonestly, I think I go to the reunions just to show people that I survived.\nAnyway, 1979 was an okay year. We killed disco that year with My Sharona.\nThere was a school shooting in San Diego, early in 1979, and I was hoping I could say it was, like, the first one ever in the US. But...it wasn't. Dear lord was it NOT the first. The first school shooting was in the 1700s. Shit you not. Then there's a long list for the 1800s. Then a list for 1900-1930. After that, it goes by decade. When you get to 2000, you can see the historians were exhausted and stopped listing every single one. Now they just list how many people died in school shootings each year. Shit.\nSee for yourself at the History of School Shootings in the US.\nAnyway, Voyager photos revealed Jupiter's rings in 1979. We got our first Space Shuttle, Columbia, that year. The Happy Meal was introduced. Of course, we had the Unabomber too. Oh, and the Susan B. Anthony silver dollar! I had one. I probably don't anymore. OMG. Off the Wall came out in 1979. It was excellent! Every song a winner.\nJimmy Carter was president. Man, what a sweet guy he was/is. Such a good, honest man. But we had the Iran Hostage Crisis, too.\nOkay, so, just to make myself feel really, really old, get this: Chris Pratt was born in 1979!\nIn 1979, we had soap operas on tv all afternoon. I miss that. We had Eight is Enough, Laverne & Shirley, [Can you believe Lenny is doing that Food: Fact or Fiction show now?] The Love Boat. [I just saw Doc on The Last Sharknado!] Things were so...simple and stupid back then. Lou Grant. Wonder Woman. M*A*S*H.\nAnd movies! The Amityville Horror. The Jerk. The Muppet Movie. And well, Roller Boogie. Maybe not the best year in film. I still haven't seen the Oscar films: All That Jazz, Apocalypse Now, Breaking Away, and Norma Rae. I don't even know what Breaking Away is. I never saw Kramer vs. Kramer, either.\nSpeaking of Apocalypse Now, did you read about Trump arguing with representatives of Veterans Affairs over whether the film featured Agent Orange or Napalm. What a tool.\nPresident Good Brain Turned a Veterans Meeting into the Dumbest Movie Debate of All Time\nYeah, so. Meh. I graduated high school in 1979. It was an okay year. My hometown is stagnant, if you ask me. But it was an okay place to grow up, I suppose.\nI think the best thing about 1979 is the song, 1979. Seriously, one epic song.\nLabels: 1979, high school, History, THS, Titusville High School",

Their foot secretes a slime that dries, leaving behind a silvery trail wherever they\u2019ve been. They have two pairs of antennae on their heads. Their eyes are at the ends of the larger pair of antennae, which are located above the second, shorter pair used for smelling.\nSnails also have a shell in which they can pull themselves into and hide when threatened or to hibernate. Slugs and Snails can be anywhere from 1/2\u201d to 10\u201d long, depending on their age and species, but most encountered slugs and snails are about 2\u201d to 4\u201d long.\nSlugs and Snails destroy plants by eating the leaves, new growth and fruits and vegetables that grow close to the ground. Some will even eat pet food left outside.\nBrown, gray, yellow, black\nSnails\u2019 ancestors are one of the earliest known types of animals in the world. There is fossil evidence of primitive gastropods dating back to the late Cambrian period; this means that they lived nearly 500 million years ago.\nClear away dead leaves, bark and branches where slugs and snails can hide. Put potted plants on stands.\nSlugs and Snails are most active in spring and fall.",

        "raw_content": "Blog EP 257 - Score Big in Self-Storage with Terri Garner and Alia Ott Carter\nOne of the key differences of self-storage to other commercial assets is that fair housing laws don\u2019t apply to them because nobody\u2019s living in them. There\u2019s no need to go through the eviction, foreclosures and wait long for lead times to get your money back. Terri Garner and Alia Ott Carter have been in the self-storage market since 2009 and their key to success is being able to connect with people. Whenever they are given the opportunity to get their message out in front of many people, they do so because it is the best way to connect to people and grow their network.\nI am so honored to have Terri Garner and Alia Ott-Carter join us on this episode. Alia and Terri go back a long way with me. They were actually a part of our first ever Note Mastermind. They\u2019ve evolved over time going from note investment and private lending, fix and flip, wholesaling to settling on a commercial side and trying their niche in the self-storage market. Alia and Terri have such a big heart. You can hear it in their voices and the information that they share about the self-storage business, the hurdles, the things that really attracted to them, the popularity of it, along with where they think the market is going the next few years. I could not agree more with what they\u2019re sharing. The self-storage market, while it\u2019s as popular as the apartment market these days, they\u2019re just as hot, there\u2019s a lot of opportunities for note investors to reach out to self-storage owners or to find people that have self-storage facilities that are in trouble.\nAlia and Terri talk about how they target smaller markets, not the major market that they find, the second hand markets and mom and pop owners that are operating something but don\u2019t have the marketing to help them grow a business. That\u2019s a huge opportunity not only for us real estate investors, but also as note investors, as you reach out and start talking to banks an estimate to show that specific asset class. Terri and Alia are two of the best people in the world, and I couldn\u2019t say more positive things about them. They have come a long way and I\u2019m very proud of all the success that they\u2019ve had, and they continue the success that you\u2019ll see over the next few years from them.\nScore Big in Self-Storage with Terri Garner and Alia Ott Carter\nI am honored to have a couple of amazing ladies join us. We\u2019re really excited to have these two amazing women who are doing amazing things. They have transition from the real estate game to the note game to more so being very specific, and these two ladies are now experts in the field of self-storage. We get bombarded with requests. \u201cDo you have any apartment notes?\u201d I\u2019m like, \u201cNo, I don\u2019t have any apartment notes. I wish I did. If I did, I\u2019d buy myself.\u201d Same thing as self-storage, but it\u2019s really great on the cash flow aspect. Two of the original cash flow divas, Alia Ott and Terri Garner joining us from California. Good day, ladies.\nGood day, Scott. This is great.\nAlia, why don\u2019t you start off first and tell us who you are and why they need to pay attention to you.\nMy name is Alia Ott-Carter. Terri and I have been in business together since about 2010. We\u2019ve had a journey just like many of you have had, whether you got started in single family flips or rentals and transitioned into notes, so we have experience with all of that. We met Scott a number of years ago when we were focused on our lending business and then thought of another alternative to lending, which was buying non-performing note portfolios. Shortly after that, we transition into buy and holds of self-storage properties and we got into that business through lending on a transaction and becoming an equity partner and full-fledged business partner in that. We\u2019ve gone on to purchase thirteen self-storage properties.\nTerri, tell them a little about who you are.\nI\u2019m Terri Garner and I have been doing real estate since back in the early 2000s. We\u2019ve been doing a lot of different things. I started out doing fix and flips and then doing single family rentals, rehabbing those, and then renting them out. When Alia and I met, we started doing private lending. We met with Scott years ago and worked with him. We\u2019re a part of your first Mastermind group way back.\nI called it the Davenport Dozen.\nThat was us, hanging out in a house out in Florida, getting stuff done. We even had a fund with notes and did that for several years, and then have worked our way into the niche that we\u2019re currently in, the self-storage.\nTerri, why don\u2019t you share a little bit about how valuable and what attracts you to the self-storage side.\nWe love storage because one of the key differences of other commercial assets, whether it\u2019s partner complexes or mobile home parks, is that nobody\u2019s living in them. The fair housing laws don\u2019t apply, so if somebody stops paying you, it\u2019s a little different state by state because each state has its own law, but it\u2019s literally only two to five days depending on the state and you just put a lock on their unit. You can lock them out of their gate even. You don\u2019t have to go through eviction. You don\u2019t have to go through foreclosure. You don\u2019t have these long lead times to get back to your money. You lock them out. There is a little bit of a process.\nYou have to do some notification but you can get to an auction pretty quickly. If they don\u2019t bring you the amount that they owe you, you can sell off their stuff and get that unit cleaned out and get it rented again. It\u2019s very simple business. The other thing we like about it is you don\u2019t have toilets to deal with, you don\u2019t have things breaking on you by people living in that you have to go and fix up. When the tenants move out, you just broom sweep it. It\u2019s just four concrete walls and a roll up door. You don\u2019t have to do paint, you don\u2019t have to do carpet, you don\u2019t have to do any of that. It\u2019s a very simplified business and a simplified model, and we love it for that reason.\nSelf-Storage: We love storage because one of the key differences of other commercial assets, whether it\u2019s partner complexes or mobile home parks, is that nobody\u2019s living in them.\nAlia, you were mentioning 4,200 doors you were figuring out, and that\u2019s over a dozen properties across the country, is that right?\nWe have thirteen properties. Two of the properties are in the same community run by the same manager, that dozen or so properties.\nWithout giving away any secrets, but none of those are in California though, where you call home, right?\nNone of those are in California. If you are proficient in the commercial real estate industry, everything is often based on cap rate, and that\u2019s the calculation of what you\u2019re essentially paying for your cashflow. The lower the cap rate, the more expensive the property is for the cash that comes in every month. California, New York, those have some of the lowest cap rates in the entire nation. We look towards the middle of the country, Texas, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia.\nSome of the Southern states as well and a couple up in the North, and they cashflow much better for the price that you\u2019re paying for the property. We\u2019re long-term hold buyers of these self-storage properties, so that becomes a key factor. We were looking to possibly flipping property, get the revenue up, and then resell it right away. We might look towards other marketplaces, but we look at the numbers on everything. If it makes sense, then we buy it.\nOne of the big things you look at is surrounding properties, to see what kind of their occupancy rates are. If the community is at 65%,that\u2019s about as high as you can get it up to, right?\nI bought some self-storage notes and we got them fixed up and then sold them off. The expense ratios on self-storage is much less because you have so much less manpower, right Terri?\nOur maintenance costs are very low. We have one property manager that can handle up to 500 units. If you start to get higher than that, then you might want to think about adding another property manager. We do have a part-time person as well that covers weekends, so that we can run seven days a week, but the manpower, it\u2019s a simple business. There\u2019s nobody living there, so it is a very simple business.\nAlia, how are you finding these deals? Are you dealing direct from banks, notes, private sellers? Is it from a mixed bag? What\u2019s your resource?\nIt\u2019s been a little bit of a mixed bag, but primarily our source as of late is being fed by brokers. There\u2019s real estate brokers in the commercial arena that specialize just in self-storage, and so those have been really key relationships build over time. We\u2019ll go to a couple of the national conferences every year. There will be at least a dozen different brokerage firms showing up with 40 properties available for sale. Making relationships, like anything else in the whole real estate business, is key.\nTerri, with the different things, is there an underlying distressed nature to those assets that you\u2019re seeing? Do the people just lack of management skills or they just don\u2019t have kits? What do you see?\nThat\u2019s specifically what we look for. We do often get deals across our desk where they\u2019re already at 93% occupancy and there\u2019s not a whole lot you could do with that. You never want it to be up to 100% occupancy because that means you are charging enough for your friends, but 93%, there\u2019s not a lot of value we can add. We\u2019d like to buy them when they\u2019re in 50% to 60%occupancy range where we see some key issues, whether it\u2019s on the management side or, many times, it\u2019s with the prior owner, but they were stifling the manager that was there. Then we have cashflow coming in on day one when we first buy it from that 50% to 60% occupancy. We still have room to add value to the property, so we can get the occupancy up. That raises the value of the overall property. Then we could go out and refinance, pay off our initial investors in whole property.\nAlia, how are you financing these things? Are you using private capital? Are you doing subject to financing? Are you adjusting or a variety of the things? How are you funding?\nIt\u2019s a combination. When we initially purchase a property, the first thing that we attempt to do is get the seller financing. Oftentimes, the seller will offer seller financing at market rates. That\u2019s great when we can get that because you don\u2019t have to deal with lag times at bank. We\u2019ve had deals that have taken six to twelve, even eighteen months to close when you get a bank involved. The bank financing is usually very affordable as well. They\u2019re not so concerned about the occupancy rates as they are just overall looking at the purchase price and the cashflow that\u2019s covering their expenses.\nWe will typically get anywhere between 65% and 80% of the purchase price covered by either the bank or the seller, and then we\u2019ll work with our investors to raise additional capital to close out the purchase price and closing expenses. We did that initially through our lending program at Investors In Action. Then we have transitioned on to creating a syndicated fund, which allows us to legally pool investors together and have compliance with the SEC. That\u2019s what we use to purchase now.\nIs it Jillian Sidoti who\u2019s your attorney for that?\nHow long have you been in self-storage? For six years now? Do you remember when you bought your first one?\nAbout five years. We started about 2015.\nTerri, what did you do before you got into real estate? I want people to see that you can make transitions. You can do different things if you\u2019ve got your goal.\nI have a very corporate background. I was a Mechanical Engineer and did that for seven years. I got an MBA, and I was at Verizon Wireless and middle management there for eleven years, and then I couldn\u2019t take it anymore. I couldn\u2019t take corporate America. I had to get out. I took a leave of absence and started doing real estate at home. I wanted to make sure I liked working from home and got my feet under me before I\u2019d cut that cord. About a year later that, I finally said, \u201cThat\u2019s it. I\u2019m going for it and going full blast.\u201d\nAs far as the transition, you don\u2019t need any kind of fancy education. You can take whatever background you have and take those skill sets and just transfer them. Whatever you\u2019re good at, I was used to working with a lot of numbers and things like that, so in our business with Alia and I, that\u2019s what I tend to do. I deal with the spreadsheets, not that Alia isn\u2019t proficient in that. She is, but that\u2019s where I gravitate towards. I check those same skill sets and just apply them to what we\u2019re doing now.\nSelf-Storage: Making relationships, like anything else in the whole real estate business, is key.\nAlia, why don\u2019t you share with our note nation your background before you get into the real estate side.\nPrior to jumping ship, I was working at a nonprofit organization called Network for Good. That was an organization that helped thousands of other charities raise donations online, and very proud to say I had a goal. I wanted to hit half a billion dollars raised online. We hit the $500 million mark just about a month before I left my job there. It was great. I was investing while I was working at the nonprofit organization, but I knew that I wanted to be a generous philanthropist. I didn\u2019t want to be an employee of a nonprofit for the rest of my life. I knew that there had to be another better way. Ever since I was a kid or a teenager, I knew that real estate was the game that I wanted to leverage to create the lifestyle that I truly desired. Now, I get to be more of a philanthropist and volunteer my time because we have cashflowing properties.\nIt\u2019s a beautiful thing and you\u2019re doing a lot of those nonprofits and capital raising, and how big of a passion it is for both of you to actually do what you\u2019re doing. As both of you have grown, your goals have changed over time. You\u2019ve pivoted, you\u2019ve used some of the different things you\u2019ve learned in different aspects and pivoted. Alia, how important has building a marketing presence or developing marketing skills helped you in your pivots?\nDefinitely creating a presence for yourself online. I\u2019ve found that video works really well, as far as being out there on YouTube. I get random calls once in a while from people who said, \u201cI\u2019ve been watching you on YouTube. I want to connect. Tell me more about the education that you offer.\u201d We\u2019re really not actively marketing our education so much. It\u2019s there, and we plan to do an annual workshop every year, but we\u2019re focused on our assets at the moment. I do have to say it is an important skill. This was something I taught the nonprofit how to do when I was teaching them to raise money online.\nYou have to get online. You have to build your lists. Sending emails, doing your videos, all of that is really key to making sure that people know who you are, and it\u2019s creating what I refer to as surround sound. People don\u2019t just buy with you or lend or invest with you the first time that they see you, unless maybe you are positioned by an authority figure. Most of the time, people have to see you. They have to connect with you multiple times. A way to do that is leveraging social media videos, the internet, email campaigns, so that people hear from you over and over again.\nTerri, you want to add to that?\nTo also compliment that, in addition to all of the online stuff and the email marketing we do, we try to get out as much as we can to see our local real estate investment club meetings. One, not only to make connections, but two, if you have an opportunity to speak up and get up in front of people, then you get your message out there. We attract a lot of people to us that way as well. As Alia said, it\u2019s a perfect word, that surround sound, but it\u2019s the online combined with the in-person, the networking, meeting people and just getting out there.\nYou had people that were interested. You guys built rapport with your audience. You already had a good presence out there just from your past background and people had already trusted you. People knew who you were from different things. Your phone started blowing up with people calling, \u201cTell us more about what you\u2019re doing.\u201d\nThat just speaks to the power of get out there and do it. Don\u2019t overthink it. Don\u2019t try to analyze things. Just get out there and do it. Once you get started, things are going to happen. There might be mistakes, but you figure it out. You correct them. You don\u2019t do that again the next time and you keep moving forward.\u201cSailing forward\u201d is a term I\u2019ve heard in seminars from years past. Just get out there and get moving because if you do nothing, then nothing happens.\nPeople play inner mind games with their self. They just don\u2019t have the confidence to do it. It\u2019s ten times more difficult in their head than it is in real life, Alia?\nEspecially when it comes to raising capital, asking other people for money. I saw this with the nonprofit, then I saw it even worse with raising money for your deals. People get in their heads and they\u2019re too afraid to ask for money, or they have to over analyze the deal and they never put in an offer. When Terri and I met, we went through something called the 60-day challenge. Every week, every day, we had to submit offers, lots and lots of offers on wholesale deals that we intended to either keep and rehab or sell the contract to another buyer.\nNothing would happen if you didn\u2019t put an offer in. Just like note, just like anything else, self-storage, commercial properties, single family, you have to put in the offers and you have to ask for the money. I want to say one thing about raising capital that\u2019s really key to get into your mindset is you\u2019re not asking for money, you\u2019re giving somebody an opportunity to earn money on their money, making their lazy dollars go to work for them, expand and multiply. If not that, you\u2019re just taking someone\u2019s money. If you feel like you\u2019re taking someone\u2019s money, then you\u2019re probably not going to do the right thing with it. If you\u2019re having somebody invest with you and giving them a nice rate of return, that\u2019s a gift to the investor, and people are grateful for those opportunities.\nI love it when we\u2019re around people that understand the game, and gets it, and they understand there\u2019s so many opportunities out there. If you had a best friend who is the Founder of Google, you would hope that they would tell you about Google so you can invest with them the earliest stages. Terri, let\u2019s pivot back here to the self-storage market. Why don\u2019t we talk about where do you see that market going? I\u2019m sure you ladies are constantly looking at it because you\u2019re in a variety of different markets. What has made that such a hot market over the last few years?\nThe nice thing about storage, and we can even go back and look historically to the economic downturn, is that people have a lot of stuff. Even when they were getting foreclosed on and having to move out of their house, they would put their stuff into storage as they were downsizing, to a smaller place or moving into an apartment. During that economic time, there was a little dip, but not much, not like the other asset classes that you see. Historically, it\u2019s always done very well. Now looking forward, one of the questions we get asked a lot is, \u201cMillennials are up and coming. They tend not to want to have a lot of stuff. Do you see that as a problem?\u201d\nMillennials also like to travel and we go after the student days. For example, when we get towards the end of the school year, we will target universities because they will put their stuff in storage. As they are mobile and they vacate their properties, they will put their stuff in the storage. We talk about this a lot at some of our industry conferences that we go to. It\u2019s a big discussion there and we see the trends keep going and still being strong.\nSelf-Storage: People don\u2019t just buy with you or lend or invest with you the first time that they see you. Most of the time, people have to see you.\nWe got a report from one of the major players who handles brokerage in the self-storage arena. One of the things that they are talking about is the future, \u201cWhere\u2019s the future of self-storage?\u201d I want to give an honest and maybe not so rosy picture of the outlook. We currently, in the last two to three years, have been paying more as an industry for properties in the commercial space, whether it be apartment complexes or self-storage. I talked a little bit earlier about the cap rates, the cost of buying your cashflow essentially. When interest rates start to rise, it\u2019s not all simultaneous, but I believe in this case, it probably will be.\nAs the interest rates start to rise, the cost of funds to get a bank loan or get a private loan is going to increase, and so your cost of holding that property through debt is also going to increase. That\u2019s going to affect the overall market in terms of how much people are willing to pay for those storage properties. In 2016, there was a huge spike in REITS, which is Real Estate Investment Trust going out and purchasing both portfolios. That has started to cool off a little bit. I would be very cautious about the purchase price and have a longer-term strategy. If you\u2019re looking for cashflow, then it won\u2019t matter as much how much you pay for that property. If your goal is to flip the property, then I would be a little bit more cautious about what you\u2019re paying and what you think your returns are going to be on the disposition side.\nI\u2019ve talked to a lot of apartment investors too. They\u2019re buying all these apartments up to add value, to take it from a Class C to a Class B, re-gentrified the neighborhood, or rejuvenate the property, to get refinanced out and cash themselves out in three years. There\u2019s no guarantee that finance is going to be there in three years. We can agree to that, right?\nThat goes in front any asset class, not just in storage but anywhere.\nThe fact is that you\u2019re working on details with owner financing and other curative financing tactics makes it a lot easier for you. Because if you\u2019ve got a loan in place that\u2019s got low interest rate and boost your cap rate, you\u2019re making your profits and the cashflow and the re-gentrification of it abruptly. Have you given any thought or looked in any of the stuff about the construction? Because I think self-storage has one of the lowest construction cost to build a new property.\nWe\u2019ve looked at construction. We\u2019ve had conversations about it. The thing with construction is two-fold. One, you have your holding costs. You have land, you have your materials, you have labor, but there\u2019s no cash flow coming in to support that. We like the ease of going into an existing property, specifically ones that have internet marketing. There\u2019s people out there that still own these properties and are not marketing online whatsoever. We\u2019re looking to cure a problem rather than starting ground up construction, that\u2019s just not a skill set that applies to us at this moment in time. Maybe down the road we would acquire property that has extra land and build on that. We\u2019ve discussed doing that with a couple of our properties, but there is definitely a risk in the construction process. Because you\u2019re going to pay more for your initial cash that you get, whether that\u2019s getting 100% from investors and having to pay them a whole lot more than you would a bank.\nIt might be that you have interim financing at a higher interest rate, so however you\u2019re choosing to finance that, you have to be really careful. Then you don\u2019t know how long it\u2019s going to take you to fill up that property and get it to the point where your cash flow exceeds your debt expenses. That\u2019s one thing I would caution people on. If you\u2019re a proficient developer, it\u2019s certainly a huge opportunity if you can find the right piece of land in the right area. One of the key factors with self-storage is knowing a five-mile radius market and looking at your competition and seeing how well your competition is doing within that five mile radius, because that\u2019s where about 80% of your tenants are going to come from. You can\u2019t just look at a major metro market and say, \u201cI think LA or Dallas is great.\u201d You really have to go down to the individual neighborhood and understand that micro market.\nWe haven\u2019t done this specifically ourselves, but another thing that other investors are doing is repurposing, say an old warehouse or an old retail area, and turning that into storage. That way, you don\u2019t have to go through permitting because it\u2019s already existing in authority. You still have to worry about the lease up and getting to your cash flow coming in, but it is a little bit simpler. We see a lot of that going on in the industry.\nI\u2019ve seen some of that happen with the bigger box stores or the Walmarts that have been out.\nWe have to be aware too. If we buy a property, what we look for is their vacant land nearby. Are there old empty warehouses nearby that somebody could come in, turn that into storage, and be our competition? We always look at that as well within that five-mile radius. One of the creative things that some people are doing is there\u2019s pods. They\u2019re easy to install. Some of them are portable, some of them are permanent, not fully permanent, but you bring them in there and the intention isn\u2019t to take them out and put them on somebody\u2019s front yard.\nA lot of people have heard of pods. U-Haul has something similar to pods where it\u2019s a mobile unit that as a service, a truck will come take it to your driveway, you fill it up, and then they haul it off to wherever it needs to go. That\u2019s another convenient way of being involved in storage. There\u2019s some new innovative ways that people are leveraging storage, specifically banking on convenience, which millennials like in some of the bigger cities, things like valet service where they even store and they\u2019ll stack the storage unit one on top of another in a warehouse. The only way to get to it is through a forklift, an employee going in there, taking that unit out and allowing you to have that unit then brought back to your home.\nThat\u2019s exactly what I did when I sold my house in one on my three-year road trip. I basically put what was left over in the house after my divorce in a pod and stored it for three years. Then when I finally settled back in a spot, they showed up and dropped it all off. It\u2019s a pretty affordable way to do things, but it\u2019s also when you\u2019re leveraging up. Just across, it allows you to really maximize your square footage. . Where do you see the market in the next 24 months? You see a downturn across the board with real estate. Where do you think things are going here? Is it going to be property values dropping? Are we going to see a repeat of 2008, 2009, 2010 again?\nIt is hard to know where we\u2019re going. So far, we don\u2019t see it slowing down. In fact, the storage, as an industry, has been underserved for the demand. You have seen in recent years a lot of building going on and new players coming in, and there are a couple markets that are saturated. Sacramento is one of them, Dallas is another, but in general overall there\u2019s still an underserved population and not enough storage units to accommodate the demand. For our specific industry, we still feel very confident. The last economic downturn, even if there is a downturn, we feel like we\u2019ll be able to survive that.\nI think one of the keys is as long as your debt to income ratio, as long as you don\u2019t have a whole lot of debt on the property, even it does go down a little bit, you can still survive that. For us, because we\u2019re buying them at 50% occupancy and then building them up, if they start to drop a little bit, we can still cover it. What we like with our business model now, it might be different for those that built from the ground up.\nSelf-Storage: There\u2019s still an underserved population and not enough storage units to accommodate the demand.\nAlia, what are you thinking?\nMy crystal ball says that there\u2019s a little bit of softening in the market, not a tremendous amount. Every real estate market is a cycle. If there\u2019s some level of predictability to that cycle, we hit a huge downturn in 2008 as everyone knows. Normally, the cycle is between seven to ten years, so we are at essentially that ten-year mark and we\u2019re still going pretty strong. There\u2019s some factors, like some of the tax reform that has helped the real estate industry a little bit. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s going to give it a huge bump.\nOn the opposite side of that is rising interest rate, so one counterbalances the other. I still see a strong demand for self-storage for apartment complexes, but it\u2019s coming down to the micro market than what people are willing to spend on the properties. As long as you\u2019re looking at the long term buy and hold strategy, your property cash flows and you have some value add opportunities, I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to buy a property even in this hot market.\nEspecially if you\u2019re buying it at 50% occupancy and you\u2019ve got it a lot bring her that you\u2019ve got a little pot of gold there. You just got to un-dust and make it work. Are you guys buying on your properties? Are they in major markets? Are they around major markets? You mentioned some stuff in Texas. Are they like in Dallas, Houston, or are they in secondary communities?\nThey\u2019re in secondary and tertiary markets. In Texas we have Abilene, Killeen, Harlingen, which is down near Brownsville of the South. We bought in Edinburg, which is near that area as well. We\u2019re just outside of Shreveport, Louisiana. There really are secondary and tertiary markets. The reason why is because a lot of big public companies like self-storage, public storage, extra space, those they like to go in the primary markets, they have a little bit different business model. They buy a higher occupancy and they just want steady cash flow for their investors that they have before they\u2019re traded on the stock exchange, so for their stockholders. We stay out of those because we don\u2019t have the same business model that they have, so our business model works better where we can find like mom and pop type operations and those tend to be a little bit more in the secondary and the tertiary market.\nThey don\u2019t have the budget, they don\u2019t have the knowledge to reach out to things.\nThere\u2019s a big surge in the storage industry in the \u201870s and \u201880s. You got a lot of these mom and pops opening and they manage it themselves. They\u2019re the ones sitting behind the desk. They\u2019re still advertising in the yellow pages. We have found properties, where they have no online presence and they\u2019re spending all this money to advertise in the yellow pages. That\u2019s such an easy problem to correct. You do away with the yellow pages and just put up a website. It\u2019s not rocket science, it\u2019s very simple to do.\nAlia, are you taking your individual properties and rebranding it or leaving it as the same known brand? Are you handling marketing or you\u2019re outsourcing to a third party marketing to help with these assets?\nWe are outsourcing our SEO. We have websites that are configured by a company who specializes in three markets. I know one of them is senior housing, the other one\u2019s self storage and the third one is, apartments. They specialize in doing websites and SEO marketing, Google Ads, etc, for those three industries. That company is called G5.\nYou put them under rebranding them?\nNo, we are keeping the same name of the company. We\u2019re not intending to be like a well-known brand because in order to do that you have to concentrate in one market, and because we are scattered a little bit throughout the country, a property in Killeen, Texas isn\u2019t going to have the same memory of somebody who jumps over to Mobile, Alabama. There isn\u2019t that strong of a need. It\u2019s nice when you have strong branding, strong colors, really nice logo and everything, but at the end of the day, that doesn\u2019t necessarily serve our tenant base.\nWe\u2019re looking for people who want something simple, something affordable so people compete on price, people compete on offering, so like all the amenities that you have to offer. Oftentimes, we start out with a price and then we continued to improve the property. We were talking earlier about people who take a C class building and make it a B class building and re-gentrify a neighborhood. That\u2019s what we attempt to do to our properties if needed. At the end of the day you look at the numbers and you make decisions based on your cash flow revenue model.\nDo you care if the facility is a multi-story climate-controlled property or is it all about the numbers?\nIt\u2019s all about the numbers. As far as climate control, we don\u2019t seek them out and we don\u2019t avoid them. If they have them, great. We\u2019ll use them. You can usually get about $10 to $20 more depending on the size of it for climate-controlled unit, but if they don\u2019t have them, that\u2019s fine too. The ones that are desired most by the tenants are the ones that you can drive up to and park your car right in front of them, get out and open the door, and those tend not to be climate controlled. Climate controls are usually interior to a building, so those roll up ones that are out off in the distance are the ones that people like.\nI\u2019m willing to bet that your Killeen property stays near Fort Hood?\nOne of the niche markets that we serve well is the military. We have several properties located near a military base, and it\u2019s nice to have a retired Air Force Captain as your business partner who knows how to say the right things and get connected to the relocation department of these military facilities.\nIf the tenants don\u2019t pay, you just got to reach out to their CO.\nThat\u2019s the one of the beautiful things and we have to be careful that we\u2019re not auctioning off any military unit. If you call their Commanding Officer, they get on it right away about that missing payment, so that\u2019s the benefit of the military.\nSelf-Storage: When you are remotely managing real estate, your property manager is key.\nTerri, you being in Verizon Wireless actually helped open a Verizon Wireless branch in Killeen back years ago. It was fast, feast or famine. It was great. Whenever they moved in town, when everybody moved out, you got to lot of cancellations on your submissions back in the day, so that\u2019s funny. A couple of things that I used to do back in the day is I used to join different self-storage memberships and that where I would get the email list and drop an email out once a month to those members and say, \u201cBeen looking to get rid of their self-storage, have been having problems and will often find some deals.\u201d On your thirteen properties you\u2019ve got here, are you hiring one full time and one part timer, or have you toyed around with it? I\u2019ve heard that there\u2019s the self-storage, are you seeing any of that?\nWe typically hire a full-time manager who will work a Monday through Friday shift, and then we\u2019ll hire a second manager to get the weekend. One of the value add that we include is making sure that we have six or seven day a week coverage. A lot of these mom and pops go Monday through Friday and they\u2019re missing everybody who wants to move on the weekend. Again, it\u2019s part of the reason for the lower occupancy. That\u2019s definitely one benefit there. You were asking about the kiosks? That is a trend that we\u2019ve seen. We haven\u2019t used those. They\u2019re pretty expensive. The other reason that we don\u2019t use them is we like having a body there on site. It helps with security. It\u2019s just one more deterrent from somebody coming and doing something they shouldn\u2019t be doing while they\u2019re there.\nWe haven\u2019t adjusted that yet. We also try to use our property manager to the fullest. They\u2019re many times just sitting there all day. Maybe there might be a couple of people walking in, but we will have them actively go out into the community and start marketing our storage facility to the community, especially things like apartment complexes nearby will give referral fees to apartment complex manager that refers people to our storage business. Our property managers go out and start soliciting, not only apartment complex or mobile home parks in the area, doctors\u2019 offices, real estate companies, all of that will have them target that, so we really like to use our personnel to the fullest. You can\u2019t do that with the kiosk.\nThat\u2019s a great nugget there that you shared about marketing out to professionals in the area, and they\u2019ll going up and meet people face-to-face and handing out some flyers. While it\u2019s not like VSCO, it\u2019s better than just having a sign up there because you meet a lot of people in the friendly community that can use your services. What has been your biggest challenge with the self-storage industry?\nAny industry that deals with having property managers and tenant is making sure you have the right property manager in place, because that person is the life force for your company and can make or break you. Overall, we\u2019ve had some great property managers. Some, we acquired with the properties, some, we had to replace. Oftentimes, you have to go in and assess why the low occupancy. Is it marketing, is it the previous owner, or is it the manager that\u2019s currently there? You have to discern what that might be. Make sure that they\u2019re properly trained and supported in their day to day job and keep an eye on them.\nWhen you are remotely managing real estate, your property manager is key. The other thing in the self-storage industry in particular is you have to be very careful when you\u2019re auctioning other people\u2019s items off, that you\u2019re doing that properly. We have somebody who now oversees that entire process for every property, making sure that we\u2019re following all the local laws, specifically notification to the tenant because it could\u2019ve been somebody passed away, somebody is on deployment, they changed their billing information and now their credit card is not being properly charged. They maybe moved somewhere so you have to be careful when you\u2019re auctioning stuff off.\nTerri, are you ever dealing with things like, \u201cIs the stuff on TV Storage Wars where like it is in real life?\u201d\nWe\u2019ve actually had storage wars. At the beginning, we would do live auctions. When you first buy your property, you tend to have a lot of delinquencies from the past owner weren\u2019t paying attention to it. When we have a lot of units, it\u2019s great to have a live auction and they\u2019re really fun to go to. It\u2019s a lot of fun to see that. We tend to shift more, we do auctioning online. We have a company called Storage Treasures where you take pictures, put them online, and then people bid online. You don\u2019t have to have a whole bunch of units that are needed to be auctioned. You can just have the ones and the twos. You don\u2019t have to pay to hire an auctioneer and all of that. Online makes it very simple and efficient and you can get it done a lot faster. Storage wars, when we have them, they\u2019re really fun. They\u2019re a blast.\nSelf-Storage: The other thing in the self-storage industry in particular is you have to be very careful when you\u2019re auctioning other people\u2019s items off, that you\u2019re doing that properly.\nA smart way of doing business and making it virtually because you get a lot more buyers, those are just local. To do it is really cool. I did not know that. What are your goals? Where do you guys see yourself in the next sixteen months? Alia, I know you are constantly goal oriented. You\u2019re constantly working at number, and you\u2019re reviewing what you\u2019re want, and your goal oriented, what are your goals for the next five years?\nAs far as our storage properties are concerned, our goal is to refinance the properties that we currently have, and getting the cash flow maximized on every single one of our properties. We\u2019ve taken a heavy emphasis on that this quarter in particular as we see the interest rates rising and we want to make sure that we\u2019re able to fulfill on our business plan, which is to first bring the investors in, get the property values up, refinance the properties, cash out everybody that should be cashed out, and then long-term cash flow. We got into this with the emphasis of how we do want to retire as quickly as possible. This asset class fell in our laps just when we were lending. That\u2019s our goal, to get these cash money as much as we can.\nTerri, how about you?\nIn the near term when we refinanced the properties, we also want to take care of our investors. We have a syndicated fund and want to make sure everybody is happy and healthy. We make them whole and do what we say we\u2019re going to do and so that fund has another five years to it by the time we worked through our inventory and get everybody turned around. We have a huge focus not just on the properties of getting them refinanced but also on taking care of the investors, communicating with them, to put out a quarterly newsletter, all of that so they understand what we\u2019re doing. We make sure we take care of them.\nAre both of you always in acquisition mode? I\u2019m sure we\u2019ll see some people who are, \u201cI\u2019ve got a self-storage or know somebody looking for deals. Is there a way for them to submit those into your guys?\u201d If it makes it easier, you must be bombarded?\nI want to be bombarded with great deals. We\u2019ll always look. With any asset class, you never rest and layback on your laurels. We\u2019re always out there looking for deals. We\u2019re not as much in acquisition mode as we were a few years back where we were just acquiring the properties. Last year, we closed on our twelve properties and we\u2019re like, \u201cTwelve\u2019s a good number, let\u2019s stop right there.\u201dThen we had another great deal that we couldn\u2019t pass up and so that took us another four months in escrow and closed on that here back in January. When the deals come up, if the number\u2019s okay, that\u2019ll do them.\nYou mentioned about a class you teach once a year, twice a year. Alia, you want to talk a little about that? What goes into your classes and when is it scheduled for?\nWe don\u2019t currently have it on the schedule yet, but we\u2019re probably looking at sometime this summer. We\u2019d like to get through tax season before we start getting that plan rolled out. That does take some time because you\u2019ve got multiple LL fees to do that for, but our classes go into how to buy, how to fund, and how to operate and manage a self-storage facility. We have online materials for that. We have a study kit, our self-sort of success kit that can be found on our web site at InvestorsInAction.com. Once we get our live class, we\u2019ll post that there too.\nTerri, do you have Tim working for you yet?\nTim is my husband and he just retired a year and a half ago, so he\u2019s done. He\u2019s totally out of the corporate game. Every now and then, we\u2019ll be like, \u201cWe need some help,\u201d and he tends to do more on these projects.\nSame thing to Andre as well, Alia. Have you got him working for you yet?\nHe\u2019s busy launching his nonprofit and for-profit, so he\u2019s got his hands full.\nI want to thank both of you ladies for taking time in your busy schedule to join us here. I encourage you go to WeCloseNotes.TV, check out the video replays of our podcasts, and see Alia and Terri. I love the fact that they did a great job with InvestorsInAction.com. Pay attention to these two ladies, not only are they making a name for themselves in the last couple of years, but you\u2019ll see some even bigger things from them over the next few years. Alia, Terri, thank you so much for joining us. Hope this has been helpful. Thank you for being here and congratulations on all your success. You two deserve it.\nGo out, make something happen. If you heard anything from what Alia and Terri said is, \u201cTake your skills that you learn, apply them to your dreams, apply them to working forward. If you got to make a pivot, make a pivot, but don\u2019t be afraid to send a damn email and take some action.\u201d We\u2019ll see you later at the top.\nAlia Ott-Carter\nInvestors In Action\nInvestorsInAction.com\nAbout Terri Garner\nTerri started her professional career as a Mechanical Engineer, graduating with honors from Texas A&M University as a member of the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society.

The two necessary remedies for curing cancer are: 1) anti-inflammation (cancer spreads by inflammation, metastasis is inflammatory) and immune enhancement (you need to kill your cancer not drugs or radiation). Also as clarified 8 years ago by Corrective Cancer Care\u2122, the cancer STEM cell is the meaningful target not the relatively harmless cancer TUMOR cell. Furthermore. and the 97% of all cancer research money being spent studying oncogenes is a red herring. Big statement. Yes.

The True Origin of Cancer (video)\nBy Dr. Thomas N. Seyfried\nVideo Transcript: Is Cancer a Genetic Disease? The True Origin of Cancer\nCharlene Bollinger: Do you know the true origin of cancer? Is cancer really a genetic disease? Watch this video with Dr. Thomas Seyfried as he talks about the compelling evidence AGAINST the gene theory of cancer, even though modern medicine is still studying gene mutations and genetic problems with this disease.\nTy Bollinger: Dr. Seyfried is the author of the groundbreaking book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease and was one of the speakers at last year\u2019s The Truth About Cancer live event. Make sure to watch all the way to the end.\nDr. Thomas Seyfried: So, I like to start my lectures with giving a state of where we are with respect to this disease, okay? You look at these numbers, these are from the American Cancer Society over the last five years. I\u2019ve been logging these numbers for many years now. And what we have here are new cases, deaths per year, and deaths per day over the last five years.\nWhat\u2019s interesting about these numbers is that the rate of increase for deaths per year a day is actually about twice that of new cases, you know? And you say to yourself, you know\u2026 what\u2019s going on here?\nWe raise money for cancer research\u2026 Do you know how many private breast cancer research, brain cancer research, lung cancer research, colon cancer\u2026? The NIH government spends, [and] every year the budget for cancer research goes up. The only thing that we can be sure of is the more money we raise for cancer research, the more cancer we seem to get.\nThere\u2019s something seriously wrong with this picture and it\u2019s been going on far too long. And the reason for this is a misunderstanding of what the nature of this disease actually is, conflicting views on the origin of what cancer is. Is cancer a nuclear genetic disease or is it a mitochondrial metabolic disease?\nI have a picture of a cell here, and in this cell you\u2019ll see the nucleus and you\u2019ll see the mitochondria. The mitochondria is the small organelle that generates the energy from the cell. Energy means life, without energy we have no life. The nucleus, of course, is the focus of a large amount of cancer research, because the mutations that we all hear about and talk about are located predominantly in the nucleus. Although there are some cancer cells that have no mutations, you should know about that.\nSo, the issue here is what is the origin of this disease? Is it the defect in the organelle that generates the energy, or is it the mutations in the nucleus that are supposed to drive it? Because the answer to this question is going to determine whether or not we\u2019re going to lower those death rates.\nSo, what we have here now is the current dogma, the dogma is that cancer is a genetic disease. Cancer cells carry the oncogenic and tumor suppressor mutations that define cancer as a genetic disease. And this paper, \u201cThe Hallmarks of Cancer\u201d by doctors Hanahan and Weinberg, sets the stage for the basic research that goes on throughout the world, throughout the top made major medical schools and research laboratories on cancer.\nThe problem is you have a dogma, and we know about dogmas. Dogma is an irrefutable truth, something that\u2019s no longer questioned or discussed but simply accepted as if it\u2019s the real thing by the majority of individuals that participate in a particular field. How do we know it\u2019s a dogma?\nI teach biology, biochemistry, and cell biology at Boston College. Every textbook, all of these textbooks, \u201cCancer is a genetic disease,\u201d first sentence. Go on to the NCI website, it says \u201cCancer is a genetic disease.\u201d\nSo, what this dogma has done is it has indoctrinated the mind of generations of physicians and scientists to focus on an aspect of this disease which, I\u2019ll present evidence, may not be correct.\nSo, here\u2019s another image from a college textbook. It shows a car out of control, gas pedal\u2019s to the metal, the car has no brakes.\nAnd what this is supposed to simulate is what we have in cancer. We have defects in tumor suppressor genes, which are supposed to be the brakes on keeping the cell from proliferating, and then we have these activated oncogenes, which are the accelerators that make this vehicle, or the group of cells grow fast. And the signature feature of cancer is cell growth out of control. That\u2019s the definition: cell growth out of control, driven by these genes.\nNow, here\u2019s another picture from a textbook, current textbook in biology. You know cancer is supposed to occur because the cells accumulate mutations in the nuclear DNA. You know, we have random mutations that accumulate, and eventually the normal-looking cell on the left becomes this reddish malignant cell on the right, and no one really knows for sure how many mutations are necessary to convert a normal cell into a tumor cell, alright? This is not solid anywhere.\nNow Michael Stratton and his colleagues from England, using deep sequencing and other genetics, genome sequence, eventually identified several hundred million mutations in tumors. No two tumor cells have exactly the same mutations. This is the main thrust. We have to bring in big computers, the Watson IBM computer, to try to figure out how many mutations are in these cancer cells.\nAnd then the ultimate result of this dogmatic view of what cancer actually is comes with what we call personalized medicine, personalized therapy. You\u2019ve heard this, it comes on the news, NPR, they talk about personalized medicine. Individual\u2019s cancer cells are genetically tested for personalized therapy, and based on the information, this woman staring into the screen, based on this, they make a decision as to how we might treat the disease, or how we might diagnose the disease. Now this is all well and good if the disease is in fact a genetic disease.\nSo, what I\u2019m going to do now is present evidence that challenges the dogma. Whenever you challenge a dogma, believe me, people don\u2019t want to look at it. They don\u2019t want to talk about it. And they don\u2019t want to hear about it. And basically, this is the situation. So, I can come up here and talk, blue in the face but if you\u2019re if you are of a dogmatic viewpoint, it doesn\u2019t make any difference what I say.\nBut what I\u2019ve done, is I simply went through the literature over decades of work, and every few years a paper would appear in the scientific literature with evidence that seems to not support the gene theory of cancer. And what I simply did was bundle all those observations into a single story. I published it in chapter 11 of my book, and then in this more recent paper published, open access, I would encourage you to read the data, it\u2019s open access. You can get it anywhere, it\u2019s online, Cell and Developmental Biology.\nAnd in this presentation of studies, what I did, I found out that you\u2019re using human cells, mouse cells, different kinds of cells, they all came to the same general conclusion, that when you move the cancer nucleus into a new cytoplasm, it suppresses the growth of the tumor cell. But if you take the normal nucleus and move it into a tumor cytoplasm, you get cancer cells. And if you swap the mitochondria you get the same. Cancer mitochondria make normal cells grow fast, whereas normal mitochondria make tumor cells grow slower or not grow at all, or become normalized. I said, \u201cWhat\u2019s going on with this?\u201d\nAnd they were done by many different scientists at different universities, and they all came to the same general conclusion. So, what I simply did was put all this together, and then this image, this figure that my students and I put together, summarizes all of these different studies.\nSo, the green cells that are normal. Normal cells beget normal cells, and they have normal nucleus, and normal mitochondria.\nAnd the red cell is the cancer cell, and we know the tumor cells beget tumor cells. But the tumor cells have defects in the nucleus with the mutations, and they also have defects in the cytoplasm with the mitochondria.\nSo, what is responsible for this phenotype? Is it the mutations in the nucleus, or is that the damage to the respiration? Is it possible to make these distinctions? And the answer is yes. From those nuclear transfer experiments, it is possible to determine what\u2019s going on here.\nSo, when the red nucleus is then put into a green cytoplasm, as you see here, you have normal\u2026These cells, they form normal cells, normal tissues, and sometimes a whole frog or a mouse clone from the nucleus of a tumor cell. What\u2019s going on here?\nThen you take the nucleus from the normal cell and put it into the red tumor cell\u2019s cytoplasm, you get dead cells or tumor cells.\nThis is not what you would expect if cancer were a nuclear-driven genetic disease. It\u2019s just the opposite. This is the strongest evidence to date to refute the gene theory of cancer. It makes no sense. These genes are effects, they\u2019re not the cause of the disease, yet the field is mostly studying gene mutations and genetic problems with this disease.\nDr. Weeks\u2019 Comment: Cancer is a process \u2013 a metabolic process \u2013 gone awry.

Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0. Source: Pseudoplacebo, Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pseudoplacebo/532735261/)\nDolores, a teacher in Statistics has been collecting online (web-based) learning materials during a few academic semesters, and now she decides to share them with other teachers and, of course, with the students taking her course. In fact, most of these resources are previous exercises solved by students in the classroom, but other resources have been developed by Dolores or by her colleagues as well, and Dolores is also aware of the thousands of additional resources available through the Internet.\nTaking into account only her own resources, the total amount of available resources is estimated to be around a few hundred, comprising text documents, HTML and PDF resources, some videos and a few applets used in simulations, etc. In short: a large diversity of heterogeneous multimedia resources. All the documents available in non-open formats have already been converted into open formats following the recommendations of the Tutorial: PRODUCE & REMIX OER: author and modify\nThe Statistics course has also an interesting particularity in the learning scenario, that is to say, it is a (partially) common course for several degrees (Computer Science, Economics, Social Studies, etc.), each one of them with its special specification, but sharing a common core of content for all the degrees. Nevertheless, this fact is more a requirement than an advantage, as similar resources have been created for each degree, without any collaboration between the different teachers of Statistics. This situation could be improved by creating a single large repository in which all resources are shared, and some of them may be reused among the different degrees, as examples of specific applications.\nPublish OER\nWays of publishing\nIn general, the following options exist. OER can be published and distributed\nas a download on your own/personal/institutional website\non a website hosting educational content\nin an institutional repository and/or\nin a thematic repository\nOnce these resources have been validated and described accordingly to the determined application profile, depending on the institution's policies, they are ready to be published and made available to all the community, in order to promote their reuse. Therefore, the re-usability concept must be established in order to determine how these resources will be shared, who will have access to them, and so, but also the metadata used for their description.\nSome questions need to be answered for determining the meaning of \"re-use\" in such a context:\nWho will use the learning resources? Students and teachers within the institution? Or anyone? Depending on the answer, resources could be set up in an internal repository with different publishing licenses or repository with open access.\nWho will be granted to modify and upload new learning resources? Only teachers? Teachers and students? Or anyone?\nThink about the situation in your own institution. If Dolores is your colleague, how would you define the possible \"reuse\"? Please comprise your institutional policy about learning and publication. Please write some comments at the Wikieducator-Page Open_Educational_Content/Comments about re-use of educational science in Institutions\nUsing existing repositories\nAlthough the answers of these questions might be partially constrained by educational and institutional policies, in order to promote open access it is much better to publish in existing repositories rather than starting new ones, unless a list of requirements is fulfilled. According to McNaught (2006), a repository is more likely to be successful if it adresses (and satisfies) three main issues: materials, activities and people. Basically, this means that successful educational content repositories should be designed having in mind the following issues:\nare developed out of a genuine need within a community,\nhave a core of committed promoters with sustained enthusiasm,\narticulate a clear direction and focus,\nconsult with their user community(ies),\nestablish a good management process,\nare open access,\nfacilitate easy addition of resources,\nprovide a reasonable number (critical mass) of resources,\nand have suitable granularity in searching.\nIn this case, the teacher needs to determine whether there is an appropriate repository for these resources or not, before setting up a new repository for them. The Tutorial: SEARCH & FIND OER includes some guidelines for searching such a repository.\nFurthermore, there is the possibility of searching for additional resources in Internet, and incorporating them into such repository, according to the application profile and license.\nIf the number of resources is small (i.e. less than one hundred), let's try to find an existing repository focused on the topic of the learning resources and publish them accordingly to the policies of such repository (format, metadata, licenses and so). If such a repository does not exist, let's try to find a general purpose repository.\nTip: Exemplary Collection of Open eLearning Content Repositories\nThis is much better than publishing the learning resources in a public space (web page, wiki, or whatever) and then expecting possible users will find it by means of a searching engine (Google, for example). Visibility through Google is not a simply issue, and even if the appropriate metadata is used to ensure searching engines reach the page using the adequate keywords, the large amount of similar pages available in Internet makes very difficult to find any particular document.\nEven if the number of resources is large (i.e. a few hundreds), it may to be helpful to try to publish them in a thematic repository. This ensures a higher degree of visibility, and it contributes to maintain such repository, improving it in both quantity and quality terms. Nevertheless, if there is not an appropriate repository, and the institution has the available infrastructure (for example a digital library), it is possible to set up a new repository which may be the seed for a hopefully successful larger repository.\nSearch a fitting thematic repository for Dolores and her colleagues. Please look for the terms and conditions for publishing own resources and needed information about the content. Please write some comments at the Wikieducator-Page Open_Educational_Content/Comments about repositories for statistics\nFacilitation of the sharing\nPrepare the learning resources for publication, according to the policies of the repository, but take also into account the following issues:\nPossible benefits of re-using and sharing\nFrom the point of learning material itself, the prime benefit of open content is that it can be actualised, corrected, modified, reused and rearranged more easily, in a collaborative approach. Better quality of the open content is one effect of these possibilities.\nFrom the point of the creator (faculty) the facilitation of the re-use and sharing of open educational content means credits for the creator and could improve recognition, personal marketing, the creation of an accessible academic legacy, connections/networking/collaboration, and easier content dissemination.\nUsing suitable formats\nIt is highly recommended to use an open format (for more information look in the Tutorial: PRODUCE & REMIX OER: author and modify.\nBeside considerations about existing tools and time and effort for install other (open source) tools, Dolores should also permit modifications of her work. That means, she should create .odt or .html files instead of .pdf files, for example. If she decides to openly published the resources, she should decide about whom to permit.\nOther important issue is granularity, the size of the resources made available, which may range from single elements or assets (images, texts, and so), to complete courses. Usually, the larger work volume of the learning content is, the more formats are involved in its description, and more complex is its maintenance by third parties.\nOn the other hand, it is also important to store educational content in compressed formats, in order to reduce network overload when such content is retrieved from the repository. Obviously, only open formats for compressed files should be used.\nUsing suitable licenses\nIf something should be \"open content\", this has to be declared with a special license. Notice than saying nothing about licensing for a given content means that the classical copyright rules apply, so a decision must be taken with respect to.\nThe Creative Commons licensing model is a good starting point for sharing resources. Basically, there is only a rule: The more restrictions you impose upon a resource, the less reused it will be. Fostering the re-use means, that you should allow modifying your content!\nYou can find more information about this in the Tutorial: CHOOSE a license.\nUsing educational metadata\nAt some point you may also need to consider how to describe your educational content. One of the important reasons to do this, is to facilitate search and retrieval and to increase the ability for content to be exchanged between different Learning Content Management Systems.\nBesides Open Standards for software there are also specifications and open standards for describing educational content. The following metadata application profiles can be used to describe Learning Objects and other educational resources: SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) is a collection of specifications and standards for web-based E-Learning content. The LOM (Learning Object Metadata) of the IEEE LTSC has the goal of describing learning resources (digital and non-digital), which can be used in computer-based learning. There are attempts to investigate the usage of a range of open standards for the E-Learning content.\nThese standards are included in many of the learning or content management systems and software and some content repositories, but are not included in most wiki software.\nLook in the SCORM tutorial and samples for ways to use the SCORM recommendation.\nAs mentioned before, it is important to ensure the open educational contents are tagged with the appropriate metadata for giving credits to all participants in the life-cyle of each educational resource. Metadata is also used by searching engines to locate contents when browsing the Internet, so it is a simple but efficient way to ensure a minimum degree of visibility.\nThere are three factors that determine the degree of visibility: namely, findability, accessibility and shareability. Once again, the more open a repository is, the more likely it is to succeed.\nFindability starts by making difussion of the educational content repository through the appropriate channels: mailing lists, other related repositories, and so. A good starting point is the Exemplary Collection of Open eLearning Content Repositories.\nAccessibility means that all content in the repository is properly indexed and, therefore, can be retrieved using a friendly search engine, which should offer several searching and browsing capabilities: by keywords, by taxonomies, and so.\nFinally, shareability means that it should be easy to the users to share their obtained results in order to propagate their searches to other users with similar interests or, on the other hand, to other repositories which might have additional contents related to the topic of interest.\nDublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) Education Community [1]\nLearning Object Metadata (LOM) at Wikipedia [2]\nCarmel McNaught (2006). \"Are learning repositories likely to become mainstream in education?\" In Proceedings of the International Conference on Web Information Systems and Technologies [3]\nand all the other information and tutorials about Open Educational Content.\nRetrieved from \"http://wikieducator.org/index.php?title=Open_Educational_Content/olcos/SHARE&oldid=68046\"",

        "raw_content": "I wrote below on how Obama is wholly bastardizing our Constitutional form of government by governing through the regulatory agencies. The worst of these is the EPA, an organization being used to legislate a radical green war on coal and oil, as well as to further the interests of entrenched green interests. Most recently: the EPA is tasked to base its decisions on science, but it has ignored that to issue new regulations requiring gasoline to be mixed with 15% ethanol; and the EPA is fraudulently using the courts and friendly plaintiffs to gain powers it is not authorized by its own regulations.\nEthanol mandates are a result of Bush era laws that require ever increasing amounts of ethanol from a variety of sources to be blended with gasoline through 2022. It is an insane boondoggle that benefits no one other than select agricultural special interests, and its impact on food prices and land use has been both substantial and extremely negative. The current EPA mandate for gas to contain 10% ethanol is no longer sufficient to meet legal mandates, so the EPA is now requiring refineries to increase ethanol to 15%. The problem - ethanol burns much hotter than octane while providing significantly less energy. There is real concern as testing shows that an E15 gasoline mix can ruin engines of all types, not merely autos. And yet:\nIn 2010 and 2011, EPA gave the green light to use E15 - the 15 percent ethanol gasoline blend - in model-year-2001-and-later cars and some other vehicles. EPA's action was irresponsible. EPA knew E15 vehicle testing was ongoing but decided not to wait for the results.\nThis was a political decision by the EPA, one taken irrespective of current reality.\nBut far more troubling is the EPA's fraudulent use of our court system as an end around the limits of the EPA's regulatory authority. It is referred to as \"sue and settle.\" A friendly radical green plaintiff brings a law suit, the EPA doesn't contest the suit, but rather agrees to take certain actions that go beyond its authority, either by extending its authority or creating de facto new regulations without going through the procedures required by law to create such regulations. The most recent case, discussed in detail here, involves imposing new draconian federal regulations on coal usage in states, justified on the basis of a \"sue and settle\" court order, irrespective of the fact that the law provides for state primacy in that particular area.\nI have been saying for years now that the laws that allow for greens to have standing to bring law suits based on environmental and endangered species laws - and equally, that provide for payment of plaintiff's attorneys fees - are massively corrupt and need to be changed. The cost to our economy from abusive law suits are massive. But the corruption involved in \"sue and settle\" suits is criminal. Government officials should be put in jail over this.\nLabels: E15, EPA, ethanol, haze regulations, regulatory burden, sue and settle",

        "raw_content": "Entrepreneurial Leadership and Management . . . and Other Stuff\nThe Limington Barn\nIn The Startup Playbook, my co-author, Rajat Bhargava and I share the lessons, tips and even shortcuts we\u2019ve used in starting, running, advising and investing in companies over several decades. These include tactics for refining your idea, team-building, raising money, developing a product or service, and, ultimately, how to execute.\nWith a foreword written by \u00dcber entrepreneur and venture capitalist, Brad Feld, the book addresses the specific issues and opportunities that founders face as they start and grow their businesses. And, because it\u2019s a window into how founders think about their startup, The Startup Playbook is also helpful to everyone in the extended startup team.\nA painful truth of entrepreneurship is that the vast majority of startups fail. There are many reasons for this, of course, but almost all of them come down to the simple fact that new entrepreneurs haven\u2019t yet done and seen enough to have the wisdom required to avoid many mistakes, know what questions to ask and leverage new opportunities.\nWe share our experiences and what we\u2019ve learned from them in a founder-to-founder discussion style. This isn\u2019t a compendium of what one-hit-wonder founders, VCs and talking heads in the media want you to hear. It\u2019s an in-the-trenches guidebook, written by serial entrepreneurs that is meant to shift the odds of success in your favor.\nEven if you\u2019re just dabbling with the idea of becoming a founder and starting this journey, The Startup Playbook can help you to determine whether it\u2019s the right path for you.\nYou can learn more about it here, or just go to Amazon and purchase it now.\nBooks, Startups\nAngel Investing \u2013 What I\u2019ve Learned So Far\nI made my first angel investment in 1994. At the time, I had no basis for evaluating whether I was investing in a good idea, understanding how the deal was structured or even what the market the company was addressing looked like. It just seemed like a cool thing to do \u2013 great founders and a killer co-investor in Brad Feld. As it turns out, that first investment, net.Genesis, was a big success. While I\u2019d like to think that there is some correlation between my choosing net.Genesis for my first investment and its success, I don\u2019t think there is much. Mostly, I was lucky.\nAfter dipping my toe into the angel waters the first time, I continued to invest in more new companies. I made 1-2 investments every year for a while, always going in relatively big in my first round and picking up my pro-rata in at least the subsequent round. For the most part, I still didn\u2019t know what I was doing, but I was beginning to get a feel for things. Since I was only doing a couple of deals each year, I started doing more due diligence, but even this was limited as I had a day job running my own company.\nSome companies I invested in succeeded, more failed. For the most part, though, I was doing pretty well, making more money than I was losing and making way more than I could have in the stock market or any other investment instrument I had access to. Still, no one was going to question my amateur status. I was choosing companies to invest in from a very small sample of those looking for money, I didn\u2019t understand the subtleties of deal terms (as I often co-invested with VCs, this lead to problems), and I was still investing in companies addressing markets I didn\u2019t have even a basic understanding of (I\u2019m talking to you, life sciences and healthcare).\nEventually, I got better at judging companies, teams, ideas and markets and being able to change a sea of gray into black and white, especially with respect to the market part. I increased my pace of investing to move up to 5-7 deals/year, but started investing less with each company and not always reinvesting my pro-rata amount in subsequent rounds that I thought were too expensive.\nFast forward to today. While I\u2019m still an amateur, I\u2019ve now done over 60 investments. Not as many as some, and not even close to semi-pro and professional angels. Still, a reasonable number. I finally feel that I have enough data to try to extrapolate some trends and, perhaps, associate some causes and effects. I\u2019m still learning, of course, and since I haven\u2019t made a profession out of it, I still don\u2019t always hold fast to my own observations/guidelines. But, for what they\u2019re worth, I share them here.\nYou need to put a reasonable amount of money in play especially at the beginning. Nothing pays out for a long time and the feedback loop is huge. A small percentage of investments will return anything, so you have to place a lot of bets.\nYou need to look at many deals before choosing which ones to invest in. It\u2019s easy to get excited about the ones you see, but you have to ask yourself what you\u2019re not seeing. There are a million little companies out there to invest in. What are the odds that the subset you are seeing are the best ones?\nNetwork, network, network \u2013 get close to as many other angels as possible. The vast majority of angels are very open and are happy to share deals with you, make introductions or give advice.\nLook at every company from every incubator/accelerator you can find. Meet with the companies if you can. That\u2019s not to say that there are good companies at all incubators, although there are usually one or two in each session, but there are many in one place and they\u2019ll give you a perspective on what\u2019s going on, team dynamics and what others are looking to invest in. They are also good practice for your own discovery skills. Like Malcolm Gladwell says in Outliers, you need to do it 10,000 times to build an instinctive foundation for knowing what has the best odds of working.\nAs in most things, luck remains a significant factor in successful investment returns. When I think I\u2019m getting good at investing, I remind myself to look back and ask myself if the company succeeded because of factors I had predicted, or because of something else. Most often, success is greatly determined by the company being at the intersection of the right place and the right time. Often, it got there because of macro-economic changes that were out of my view and out of my control. Sure, picking the right team in a solid market influences arriving at this intersection, still, there is a lot of luck involved.\nWhat I\u2019ve Learned and My Current Thinking\nAlmost any deal with a good return will take a long time to reach a liquidation event \u2013 6-10 years. While there are exceptions, my home runs all took about a decade to return their first dollar.\nI used to think I could put a small amount of money into many companies each year and things would play out. I no longer believe that to be true. It\u2019s a hits business. Even with a high-multiple exit, a small investment won\u2019t provide a large enough absolute return to cover losses from failed investments and make a lot of money. Now, I invest more in the first round I participate in and almost always do my pro rata in subsequent rounds to maximize my ownership as the company grows.\nI try to be somewhat valuation agnostic. That is, the math on successful companies (assuming my home run theory is correct), shows the valuation at which one invests really doesn\u2019t matter much. I try not to overpay of course \u2013 if I can\u2019t acquire enough of the company to give me a good return when a logical exit takes place, I\u2019d rather put my money at work somewhere else.\nThere are red flags (real or potential problems) in all deals. I try not to let the existence of one scare me away. It\u2019s the combinations of red flags that matter. If the CEO does not want to take money for fear of being diluted AND won\u2019t create a board of directors, for example, I walk away.\nI have two fundamental requirements for an investment \u2013 the team has to listen well (they don\u2019t have to ever take my advice, but they have to listen to it and consider it), and founders have to have a desire to build a killer, well-rounded team. In my experience, founders who don\u2019t actively listen don\u2019t succeed. Those without solid teams struggle and most eventually fade away.\nIdeas are fleeting and are almost never unique. Even if the company seems to have a distinct cut at something, someone else with a similar idea will be smarter, faster and have more capital. Speed is the key variable. If the team is willing to work their asses off and take enough money so that they always have fuel in the tank, then they have given themselves the best chance to succeed. This latter part \u2013 money \u2013 is where I often find problems. Sometimes, founders don\u2019t want to take money for fear of dilution. Because they don\u2019t have enough money, they move more slowly and are overtaken in the market.\nI hate convertible notes, but after years of therapy, I accept that they are here to stay. Still, they are loaded with pitfalls and I try to avoid them when I can reasonably do so.\nI only invest in stuff I know, at least broadly. Of course, it\u2019s not possible to know the entire spectrum of products, services and markets I want to invest in, but there are always some I have a better feel for than others. I have lost a ton of money in healthcare and life sciences. I\u2019ve invested in the cure for cancer 3 times. It just goes to show that I have no idea how that stuff works.\nDoes the company have a board? Every company should have a board. I find that often, when startups don\u2019t have a board, it\u2019s because they are worried about loss of control and put that worry ahead of the value that close advisors can bring to the company. This is a huge red flag for me (see above).\nI don\u2019t invest in a round when I think the company will struggle to create a significant step up in valuation before they need more money. This can happen because the valuation on the current round is too high or the company is not taking enough money to make significant progress before the money runs out. I just wait until the next round to invest at pretty much the same valuation with reduced risk.\nThere are many angel investors who seek out teams in the very early, formative stages of building their companies. As you\u2019d expect, this type of investment offers the potential of lower valuations, a much greater return and, of course, failure. I am not one of these investors. I\u2019m interested in the follow-up investment right after this nascent round if the company makes it that far. Much less risk and less work as well as I tend to follow and not lead, but my experience is that I usually have to invest at 2X the valuation.\nThere are some hugely successful, high-profile angels who can offer more wisdom and informed investment criteria than me. I fully suspect that some very successful angel investors may even disagree with me on one or more points. That said, for those of you who are just getting into angel investing or are looking for some perspective on how others do it, I hope that this is valuable. As always, I\u2019d love to hear what you think.\nConvertible Notes \u2013 An Angel Investor\u2019s View\nNot so long ago, when one invested in an early startup, it was almost always through the purchase of preferred stock or equity in the company. An exchange of cash for a small percentage of ownership. Neat and tidy, everything on the table, no loose ends. Then, over time, founders (with the help of incubators and accelerators) decided that these equity instruments were becoming too difficult and time consuming, especially with respect to the negotiation of the price of the round and, to some extent, the preferences required by some investors. The \u201csimplified\u201d instrument that most companies started to use was the convertible note.\nConvertible notes quickly became de rigueur in the startup community. They are, ideally, debt instruments that offer the investor interest payments in exchange for cash invested in the company. On the successful achievement of certain milestones, the investment (plus the interest earned) is automatically converted into ownership in the company. The key milestone generally being the closing of a subsequent equity investment round. Allegedly, if the company fails to raise an equity round in a specified timeframe, the investor can get their money back. This is supposed to be the advantage for the investor but is, in fact, a useless provision. If the company can\u2019t raise a round, they have more than likely spent all the cash they have leaving nothing in the till to return to investors.\nInitially, convertible notes did make things simpler for the founders of the startup. They could kick the valuation discussion down the road and the paranoid founder could withhold any control and financial preferences from their early investors. Unfortunately, these early, simple convertible notes were minefields of problems for angel investors. Foremost among these:\nThey created situations where investors might only get their money back even though there was a large exit for the founders. Think of an exit that happens before a conversion takes place.\nThey did not specify any control provisions or establish a board (every company needs one). No oversight.\nThey often didn\u2019t recognize the level of risk taken by the early investors with an appropriate combination of discount and conversion restrictions at the next financing round.\nBecause the investment is debt and not equity, they kept the investors from starting the clock on capital gains treatment for the investment until the conversion took place.\nTo address these problems, investors negotiated new provisions in the notes to patch the holes which, in turn, made the convertible note documents increasingly complex and ultimately created documents at least as complicated as the equity investment instruments that they replaced.\nNow, instead of discussing the valuation of the company and specific preferences of the preferred stock in an equity round, the cap on the note (the maximum conversion price), the discount (the reduction in price upon conversion), and the term of the note (when and how conversion takes place) need to be negotiated (some good descriptions of these can be found here).\nConvertible note documents have ballooned into multi-page, complex forms that are not only negotiated just like their equity-based brethren, but now carry legal costs that are similar as well, taking away much of the advantage that was sought when they were widely adopted in the first place. In fact, they don\u2019t even succeed any longer at their primary goal of kicking the valuation discussion down the road since the negotiation of the cap on the note has replaced that pretty much 1:1.\nThe realization that convertible notes are no longer either cheap nor fast has brought about several openly available standardized equity financing instruments like Series Seed, Techstars Open Source Model and others that promise to make a priced round even cheaper and faster than a current, complex convertible note. In my experience, and sadly, these documents are not changing the landscape much.\nOK, that\u2019s my rant. For a while, I refused to invest in converts. I wasn\u2019t the only investor around who felt that way, but most didn\u2019t care or push back. The debt instrument took hold and is here to stay. At least for a while. Now, I see very few seed deals that are not structured as convertible notes. Those that aren\u2019t are generally led by institutional investors who often require an equity instrument to do an investment.\nThere is just so much fighting of the establishment that one can do and, as such, I\u2019ve conceded that if I am to remain an investor, I have to adapt. That doesn\u2019t mean I have to roll over, though. As such, I\u2019ve created a set of criteria for myself when it comes to reviewing the convertible notes of potential investments. There are certain parts of a note that I like to see and some I don\u2019t like. More importantly, there are parts that cause me to negotiate strongly and, ultimately, walk away if they are not added, removed or modified. I\u2019ve tried to outline each of these below.\nFor angel investors reading this, I\u2019d appreciate if you\u2019d add your thoughts on what I\u2019ve missed and where I\u2019ve overstepped. For founders of startups, I hope you\u2019ll look at these items as guidelines when you\u2019re putting together your note. My intent is not to create an investor-biased instrument, but to fill the holes left by current convertible notes; to shed light on why some terms don\u2019t work well for angel investors and to suggest how to change them so they work better. I don\u2019t believe that any of the guidance I have or changes I recommend should be detrimental to the founders of the company. Speak up if you disagree.\nDiscount and Interest\nSeed investors take a significantly higher level of risk than later stage investors. Let\u2019s face it, the vast majority of startups fail and most of those fail early. In an equity investment round, the risk level taken by angel investors was built into the valuation of the company. Since this is not part of the note, then the investment risk has to be recognized through another avenue. This is the importance of the discount. A discount rate of 20% is pretty standard, but is it appropriate that the seed investor pays 80% what the next round\u2019s investors pay when there might be a year between investment rounds? Probably not. So, the discount rate needs to be judged alongside the cap on the note. The combination of the two should recognize the risk taken by the early investor. That said, a discount rate of less than 20% is pretty big red flag for me.\nOn interest rates, I usually see 5-6%. I don\u2019t focus on these too much because that\u2019s not why I\u2019m making the investment. Still, if it\u2019s much outside this range, I\u2019ll want to know why.\nFirst and foremost, there must be a cap on the conversion. Again, why should an early investor take the risk of an early investment only to have someone else decide on the actual value of that investment somewhere down the road?\nThere is no absolute on the cap, of course. It depends on the company\u2019s stage and what\u2019s happening in the overall market. The cap should reflect the projected value of the company at the approximate time of the next financing, discounted to take the risk of the market and execution into account. Good luck with that. Really, it\u2019s the number that in combination with the discount will get investors to fill your round. Hopefully, you can begin to see why negotiating this is no more efficient than negotiating an actual current valuation\nEvents Prior to Conversion\nOne of the biggest problems with convertible notes from the investor\u2019s viewpoint is plugging all the potential scenarios that can take place between investing via a note and the conversion of the debt to equity. For example, if the company is sold prior to conversion, does the investor simply get their money back without recognition of the value of their investment? This situation is covered naturally in an equity round, but not in most convertible note documents.\nAs such, the note must specify that any change of control of the company (aka sale of the company or liquidation event) before conversion has taken place triggers a capped and discounted (as per the terms of the note) conversion into common shares in the company immediately prior to the execution of the corporate transaction. What this means is that the investor\u2019s debt will be exchanged for equity according to the terms of the note, making the transaction a proxy for an equity investment round.\nIf the transaction is for less than the conversion cap, then the investor should have the right to receive a multiple of their investment. This can be on a sliding scale based on the time between their investment and the transaction. I have seen a fixed multiple of 2X applied to cover this gap.\nClosing of the Note\nThe convertible note should not remain open for a long period of time. Sometimes, company founders will create a note and continue to take money under the terms of the note for an extended period of time. Since the terms of the note represent the level of risk taken and time, generally, reduces risk, it\u2019s not fair for later investors to get the same terms as substantially earlier ones. Therefore, notes should be closed within 90 days of their opening to recognize the risk being taken by the early investors. If a note remains open for a long time, many angel investors will do their best to be the last money in which can make it difficult for the founders to raise the cash they need.\nPari Passu with Future Notes\nIt used to be that the early seed round was done with a note and the subsequent rounds were equity deals. These days, angels are seeing multiple rounds of convertible notes. When this happens, it\u2019s important that the original note holder ensures that any more favorable terms in the future notes apply to the original note as well. Why should the people who took more risk by investing early receive fewer benefits?\nTo be clear, this does not apply to retrofitting the terms of an equity investment to original note holders. On conversion, the note holder will become equity participants via the conversion and receive the same terms, with some exceptions mentioned below, as the participants in the equity round.\nThe Major Investor Clause(s)\nMany note documents include a class of investor referred to as the Major Investor. The Major Investor is usually granted rights that include guaranteed information, inspection rights and the right to invest in the next round of funding at their pro rata level at minimum. Effectively, the Major Investor clause(s) give the company and/or investors the right to preclude non-Major Investors from getting information or investing in the next round. As an angel investor, this is a huge negative. If things are going well, I may not have the ability to invest further. I\u2019m not sure how that benefits anyone. No such clause should exist. If it does, I\u2019ll ask for a side letter including me as a Major Investor.\nI cover this thoroughly here.\nA permutation of this that is regularly found in notes covers what is often known as the Requisite Holders. Sometimes, I\u2019ll find the description of the rights of a Requisite Holder at the end of the note buried in the boilerplate stuff that no one ever reads. Here\u2019s an example:\nAny provision of the Notes may be amended or waived by the written consent of the Company and the Requisite Holders.\nWhere the group of Requisite Holders may be defined as the largest investors in the round. So, basically, certain investors may change the terms of the note at any time even to the extent of making the terms of the note different for each investor. The especially bad part of this, as I mentioned, is that this clause is often found at the end of the note, where no one is really paying attention. Why would I agree to this? Does this serve the company?\nWhew! That was long. If you\u2019ve read this far, I hope it was helpful. I\u2019d like to believe that this is a treatise that will reverse the tide of the use and overuse of convertible notes. Of course, I know it won\u2019t. So, at the very least, if this helps a few angel investors be more diligent about convertible note documents and convinces more to push for equity investments instead of debt, then I\u2019ve done my job.\nInvesting, Startups\nThe Dreaded \u201cMajor Investor\u201d Clause\nI\u2019m a fairly active angel investor. I\u2019ve certainly done enough investing to have seen a broad range of investment paperwork and the preferences of most of the top lawyers used by startups in the country. Generally, the docs are mostly boilerplate. Legally mandated cover-your-ass type stuff. So, rather than wade through reams of paper for each investment, I have key terms that I look for and pretty much ignore the rest. Almost everyone\u2019s intentions are good and all parties involved want all to benefit from the success of the company or to participate equally in its failure. Rarely does someone want an unfair advantage in a deal. Well, mostly.\nIn about a third of the deals I do these days, I run across the dreaded Major Investor clause. It goes something like this:\n\u201cMajor Investor\u201d means any Investor that, individually or together with such Investor\u2019s Affiliates, holds at least X shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof).\nBig deal, you say, that\u2019s just a definition. True, but why define a Major Investor at all? Because later in the document (usually in the Investor\u2019s Rights Agreement), certain rights and privileges are reserved solely for the Major Investors.\nWho are these people? Generally speaking, they are a lead investor in the deal. A single large investor, a family office, a VC, an angel fund or some other investment group. Oh, by the way. Did I mention that the X in the definition above is generally set higher than the level that individual investors are coming into the deal at, leaving the lead investor as the only Major Investor. But, I bet you guessed that already.\nWhat are the rights they reserve for themselves?\nPreemptive Rights (also known as Right of First Offer or Right of First Refusal)\nInformation rights grant investors the right to receive, at some pre-determined interval, information about the company\u2019s status and finances. Limiting information rights to just the lead investor is just silly. The idea is that it saves the management team time, not having to report to too many people. Why this takes more time than reporting to one party, I have no idea. In practice, it\u2019s just another cc: on the distribution list of the status email.\nSome VCs voice a concern that granting such rights to all investors will create a dialog of follow-on questions and comments that will consume too much of management\u2019s time. In my experience, there is almost never much of this going on unless it\u2019s encouraged by the CEO. Often, the angel investors, having mostly run companies themselves, can offer up their situational wisdom when they know what\u2019s going on. This advice is frequently more valuable than the money that was invested.\nInspection rights, which grant investors access to the company\u2019s books, facility and personnel from time to time, is more difficult. I actual agree with limiting inspection rights. This can create a huge time sink for the company and get out of hand when a deal has many investors.\nPreemptive rights, which explicitly grant the investor the right to invest his or her pro rata share in the next round of investment is the biggest problem (I wrote about this a while back here). It\u2019s not unusual these days, when a company is doing well and its prospects look good, for VCs to want to maximize their ownership in the company when they decide to invest. Part of this maximization often entails diluting the previous investors in the company. Yeah, that means decreasing the ownership of the angels who invested in the team and idea before anyone was confident of what its prospects were. The one\u2019s that took the most risk. It\u2019s just wrong.\nSo, Preemptive rights are a protective provision that give early investors the right (not the requirement) to invest more in the company in order to maintain their level of ownership, avoiding dilution. All early investors should have this right, which should be explicitly granted in the investment documents. By keeping this right for themselves, Major Investors are virtually guaranteeing that the angel investors in the round will be screwed in the subsequent rounds of investment if things are going well.\nYou might ask if this happens in practice. I can assure you that it does. I have fallen victim to this more than once, although not in a while. I know many angel investors who have gotten caught in this trap because they didn\u2019t understand or didn\u2019t take a hard look at the paperwork before making an investment. Recently, I was in a situation where I had to fight to maintain my ownership in a follow-on round even though I had Preemptive rights. The VC investing in the new round demanded of management that all the angels who had previously invested give up their protective right. Several of the angels refused and the deal went through anyway. If there was no prescribed right, you can imagine how it would have gone down.\nIf you\u2019ve gotten this far, you probably understand my point of view concerning the Major Investor clause. It\u2019s changed my process of discussing an investment with a startup and reviewing the documentation for the investment. My first move is to search for the term \u201cMajor Investor.\u201d If it\u2019s found, I check on the rights granted (implicitly precluding the angels in the deal). I don\u2019t really care about Inspection rights and I think that limiting Information rights is stupid, but that won\u2019t prevent me from doing the deal. Preemptive rights is a much bigger deal. I\u2019m simply not interested in making an investment in a company that doesn\u2019t offer me a Preemptive right in return for the risk I\u2019m taking as an early investor. I don\u2019t always invest my pro rata share in subsequent rounds, but I\u2019m not willing to give up my right to do it.\nInvesting, Startups, VC\nComments Off on The Dreaded \u201cMajor Investor\u201d Clause\nRIP PhatBox\nI am fortunate to have a 2002 BMW E46 M3 convertible. It\u2019s a great car that I love to drive. Unfortunately, it has auto electronics circa 2001 (when I actually purchased the car). About a year into owning it, I decided that the trunk-mounted CD player just wasn\u2019t going to cut it. I had a huge number of ripped CDs and even though downloadable MP3s weren\u2019t quite readily available yet, I knew that they would be broadly available soon. In searching for a way to play MP3 files through the standard radio interface of the car, I found the Holy Grail. Well, it seemed that way at the time. A removable disk-based MP3 player that used the existing BMW wiring to connect to the standard head unit in the dash. All praise the PhatNoise PhatBox.\nThe idea was great, a device with a removable disk drive (20GB!) that used the same cabling as the target vehicle. In my case, a 3-Series BMW. The drive could be removed from its semi-permanent home in the trunk of my car, inserted into a docking port connected to my computer and synced with my MP3 database of tunes. What could possibly go wrong, right? A spinning disk in an enclosed space without any climate control and subject to the shaking, rattling and rolling of a tightly sprung sports sedan. Perfect conditions for a fast-spinning disk drive . . . Not.\nWell, this device has been a rock-solid stud. Almost never a skip or a missed beat, even on washboard New England roads in 90 degree heat and equal humidity. The PhatBox never failed to play all my favorites. On call, all the time. Along the way, I lost the docking station and stopped updating the music on the PhatBox. No matter really, since I mostly listen to classic rock and there\u2019s not a lot of that coming out these days by definition.\nThe PhatBox is a seriously great product. Not only did it put up with being in the trunk of a car for the last dozen years, for its day, it was an exhibitionist of great engineering. PhatNoise dealt with the limited interface on the BMW Nav/Infotainment unit by synthesizing voice directives so that they could use the limited number of buttons available to multiplex several functions. When a button is pressed once, the PhatBox announces, \u201cthe current playlist is XYZ.\u201d When pressed again, the next playlist is announced. Easy smeazy. The synchronization app worked flawlessly \u2013 much better than Apple\u2019s abomination, iTunes. No muss, no fuss and it didn\u2019t even cost a lot. Yeah, sure, I had to fabricate a mounting bracket for it so that it fit where the old CD changer was mounted, but that was just a few hours of work. Unfortunately, it appears that PhatNoise couldn\u2019t keep up. They appear to still be in business, but no longer sell the PhatBox. The solid state, iPod dominant ship came ashore and sailed and PhatNoise didn\u2019t get on board.\nSo, today, the PhatBox got lovingly removed from the M3 (these photos are of my PhatBox after removal from the car). It\u2019s brought me loads of joy over the years, but my inability to update it \u2013 a man can\u2019t live on classic rock alone, after all \u2013 has forced me to move on. I replaced it with an Audiovox Mediabridge that uses an external iPod or USB memory stick loaded with MP3s. It also has a Bluetooth connection and can wirelessly connect to my phone. It\u2019s not like landing on Mars or anything, but it is an advance in technology.\nPhatNoise created a terrific product that has brought me loads of enjoyment over many years. It\u2019s too bad that they couldn\u2019t make a go of it and bring all their great engineering prowess into the present. I have incredible respect for the people who built the product. It\u2019s been a total blast to use for all these years.\nThanks, PhatNoise.\nCars, Gadgets\nActivity/Fitness Monitor Showdown\nOK, I admit it. I\u2019m a data junkie. I just totally believe that you can\u2019t improve what you can\u2019t measure. So, I want to measure everything. Although, it\u2019s even better when someone or something does the measuring for me. With this in mind, I recently decided to figure out what was the best way to measure my physical activity \u2013 movement, calories, weight lifted, stairs climbed, etc. Unfortunately, some of this data remains hard to come by. While machines in the gym \u2013 treadmill, elliptical, stationary cycle, etc. all generate some types of data. This data isn\u2019t normalized across machines and, generally, cannot be exported for tracking.\nThe answer seemed to lie in the new crop of activity monitors available. The small devices worn on the wrist or kept in the pocket to track the steps one has taken, the calories burned, elevation climbed and so forth. Unfortunately, the current crop of activity monitors don\u2019t really even try to cover some of the data I was looking for. Even worse, I had heard that many of the facets of activity they claim to cover are not all that accurate. Since my interest in gathering activity data was bordering on a need rather than desire, I had to find out what my options were. So I tried several trackers out.\nMy pseudo-scientific test included most of today\u2019s popular devices plus one monitor that runs on my Android phone (there are other Android apps and, of course, iOS apps as well, especially for Apple phones with the M7 processor).\nFitbit Flex (thanks Brad Feld)\nJawbone UP (thanks Shawn Broderick)\nMoves App\nThere are several more, of course, but my arms are short. I wore these devices daily for about a month. It was still cold outside so I could hide this embarrassing electronic armband with the sleeves of a shirt. There are lots of features of these devices that I don\u2019t cover here. If you\u2019re going to make a purchase, you should hit the companies\u2019 web sites for complete information.\nI need to note that I didn\u2019t test all types of activities that these monitors track. Since these devices are for the arm or pocket, cycling isn\u2019t accurately tracked (nor is it claimed to be) and I am not a runner, so I didn\u2019t even test for running. I also didn\u2019t test the sleep functions of any of the trackers. I move around a reasonable amount each day, I frequently spend time on an elliptical trainer and in the gym lifting weights or doing body-weight exercises. I am a reasonably fit and active person. The question is, would the data reflect this.\nLet me get right to the bottom line: These devices measure some activities moderately well and others either poorly or not at all. They all greatly depend on a certain type of body movement that their accelerometers (motion detectors) can pick up. A person who has a hard-pounding walking style will register more activity than one who floats over pavement, for example. If your primary activities are non-aerobic (weight lifting), these devices are useless. And even if they are aerobic, but only involve smooth movements (e.g. cycling), very little data is acquired. They are, basically, walking and running monitors. Additionally, the data gathered is best used as a comparison of the user\u2019s activity over time because the absolute accuracy of these devices is questionable.\nHere are a couple of examples that bear this out . . .\nThe reports below are generated by each of the devices. The first three \u2013 by the Garmin, Withings (side-by-side) and Fitbit (below), respectively \u2013 are clips from their web pages. Unfortunately, the next two \u2013 from Moves and Jawbone \u2013 don\u2019t provide a graphical web interface. The data is only available on a computer by downloading it into a spreadsheet via the web. All the devices have phone apps that display the data graphically. While it\u2019s nice to be able to access the data on a phone, I much prefer being able to see and manipulate the data with a computer on the web. Personal preference.\nThis is the data from May 10 \u2013 a randomly chosen day (I did the test on the elliptical 14 times during the month). All devices were worn throughout the day. You can see that the data on number of steps varies wildly.\nGarmin 4,218\nWithings 9,715\nFitbit 4,548\nMoves 8,786\nJawbone 7,059\nAll reported correctly that the primary movement started at about 7:30 pm and lasted for about an hour. During that time I was on an elliptical machine which can very accurately track the number of steps taken. The elliptical reported, roughly, 6,500 steps were taken, making the reported values of less than 5,000 for the whole day a bit suspect.\nThe distance covered also varies a lot between devices. It ranges from 2.09 mi (Fitbit) to 4.19 miles (Withings). Regardless of what distance I actually traveled during the day, the 2x difference in range makes me question all of the data. FWIW, the elliptical claims I ran/climbed more than 6 miles during that session.\nOn another day, I did a similar test on the elliptical with all devices in my pocket instead of on my wrist. The results were different \u2013 all values were higher, but the variance was just as high.\nThe data from April 21 is below in the same order as previously reported. Unfortunately, there is no Jawbone data for this day. This was a moderately active day with a concentrated weight lifting session from 2:30-3:30 pm. Note that none of the apps register much activity during this time. For most of the day, I was just moving around, doing whatever I needed and wanted to do without actually \u201cexercising.\u201d For this, most of the trackers were more aligned, however, there is still almost a 2x difference between the lowest (Moves) and highest (Garmin) in step count.\nClearly, the lack of activity reported during a very active weight lifting session shows that these trackers are not a reliable way of tracking this type of activity data.\nSome thoughts about each of the trackers . . .\nWithings Pulse:\nDevice fits in pocket nicely or on the wrist with a watch-like band\nGreat display of all data, scrollable to see results from other days\nTouch sensitive screen for scrolling through data\nMicro-USB port on device for charging (this is a pro because as an Android user, I always have a micro-USB charger with me)\nHard to read display in sunlight\nReplaceable battery lasts for a year (others need recharging after 10-14 days)\nBright display easily readable in sunlight\nRed reminder indicator to get your ass off the couch\nData is combined with that from other Garmin devices to give a bigger activity picture\nBluetooth syncing failed frequently\nWeb site is difficult to negotiate\nSmall, easily moves from wrist band to pocket\nNo data display \u2013 just some LEDs showing progress towards the day\u2019s goals\nI found the wrist band hard to put on even after a couple of month\u2019s usage\nRequires USB dongle for recharging\nRuns on phone so has optional access to GPS data \u2013 knows how fast your moving and where you are\nRuns on phone so it\u2019s almost always with you\nRuns on phone so it consumes battery power\nNo graphical data available on the web\nLooks the most like jewelry\nNo data display \u2013 just a colored light to tell you when you\u2019ve achieved your goal\nNo graphical data on the web\nNo wireless communication \u2013 must connect to computer to download data (newer version of hardware apparently has Bluetooth)\nWhere do I go from here . . .\nNone of these devices are perfect or, for that matter, even very good in an absolute sense. As I said earlier, they do a decent job indicating your relative activity from day to day and in that way, they can disclose and track some valuable metrics. Many of these devices have other features that may increase their value to the user as well. The Withings Pulse can also track your pulse and blood oxygen levels and the Garmin Vivofit always shows the current time, for example.\nFor me, I think I\u2019m going to move to a combination of devices. Perhaps Moves on my phone because it\u2019s so transparent for daily activity (I\u2019m carrying it anyway) and either the Garmin Vivofit or Withings Pulse for when I\u2019m purposefully exercising. I\u2019m then going to use the HumanAPI to combine the data so that I can track my overall activity in one place. Or, perhaps I\u2019ll get some help with my OCD-ish need for collecting data and drop the whole thing altogether.\nGadgets, Health and Fitness\nGadget Review\u2013Thinkpad X220\nThis is my third Thinkpad \u2013 first from IBM and now Lenovo. They have been my laptop of choice for as long as I can remember. An X40, then an X60s and now this new baby. Not as stylish as those unibody Macs that almost everyone I know uses these days, but I\u2019ll take function over form any day (well, mostly \u2013 although my kids strongly disagree, I\u2019m not entirely without style). These computers have been rock solid over the years and I\u2019ve been able to continuously extend their lives, upgrading batteries, disks, memory and versions of Windows \u2013 eeking out more from these machines than IBM and Lenovo probably ever intended. They have been no-muss, no-fuss workhorses and I fully expect the same from the X220.\nThe configuration I purchased isn\u2019t even all decked out. I selected the options that best met my needs \u2013 Sandy Bridge i5, 2.5GHz, 6GB of memory, 128GB SSD, 1366X768 IPS 16X9 12.5\u201d display and Windows 7 64-Bit (oh yeah, baby). While that\u2019s still a formidable laptop setup, faster processors, more memory and bigger disks are available to drive this thing faster and further.\nThe system boots fast and resumes from standby instantly. The screen is really sharp and the computer executes everything quickly. Best of all, battery life is completely outstanding. I can pound on this things for 5-6 hours without refueling. If I\u2019m just watching videos, it\u2019s a couple hours more than that \u2013 excellent for long plane rides. I\u2019ve stopped carrying my iPad. At 1.0\u201d thick (there is another 0.25\u201d bump where the battery is) and weighing in at about 3 pounds, it\u2019s light and goes almost anywhere my iPad went and I like the keyboard way better.\nAs with most things, not all is perfect. The machine comes with IBM/Lenovo\u2019s classic TrackPoint device, which I\u2019ve always loved. It also comes with a touchpad. You can set the machine to recognize one or the other or both. Problem is, the touchpad sorta sucks. It doesn\u2019t track consistently and trying to use it alongside the TrackPoint requires manual dexterity that genetics hasn\u2019t quite yet refined. So, I have the touch pad turned off. The other problem is with the display. While it\u2019s bright and sharp and colors are superbly reproduced, 768 pixels filling the, roughly, 6.25\u201d screen height just doesn\u2019t cut it. As much as media wants to go widescreen, productivity apps still long for good ol\u2019 4:3. Or, at least a physically taller display so that what\u2019s displayed is easier to read. There\u2019s just not enough vertical information displayed when trying to get real work done or even just browsing the web.\nDo these problems detract from the experience? Perhaps. Everyone needs to decide for themselves. For me, the screen height thing keeps this from being a perfect, do-everything computing device, but it\u2019s just not enough of an issue to spoil all the advantages that it offers. I suggest you take a look at one before buying to judge for yourself, though. It may be a more substantial issue for you.\nThe battery life on its own makes this computer terrific. Add to that the speed, great keyboard, bright display, Windows 7 and upgradeability and I think this will be my laptop for many years to come. Even if I have to do a lot of vertical scrolling.\nComments Off on Gadget Review\u2013Thinkpad X220\nNo PMC For Me This Year\nAfter seven years of riding in the Pan-Mass Challenge, a 2-day charity bike ride across Massachusetts, I\u2019m going to have to bail out of this year\u2019s event. The ride is a big deal for me each year because it supports a truly meaningful cause \u2013 cancer research \u2013 and the supporters of it, most of whom have been touched by cancer, really work to make it a rewarding experience. It\u2019s a tough ride, but a total blast. I\u2019m skipping this year because my knee, which I had surgery on in March, has not healed LIKE I WAS PROMISED! The surgeon said I\u2019d be back in four months and now is saying it\u2019ll be at least six. The physical therapist isn\u2019t even that optimistic. As it turns out, the fine print in the surgery contract doesn\u2019t say anything about commitments by a medical professional being legally binding (yes, I\u2019m kidding).\nWhile I\u2019m not going to be able to do any actually pedaling in the event, I can still do some peddling (get it? pedaling vs. peddling? funny, right?). I\u2019m still going to try and raise some money for The Jimmy Fund. To do that, I\u2019m going to be a \u201cvirtual rider\u201d for the PMC. It\u2019s just what it sounds like, I\u2019m afraid. I pretend to ride so that I can pimp the cause.\nIf you have the desire and ability to donate, I\u2019d appreciate your support of the efforts at Dana Farber. I have raised $35,920 over the last 7 years and already have $4,840 committed for this year. I suppose it\u2019s a bit lame to be seeking donations when I\u2019ll be sitting on my butt during the 2-day ride, but if by making it a bit easier to donate I can convince a few more people to throw in with the cause, it\u2019s worth it.\nComments Off on No PMC For Me This Year\nGadget Review\u2013Windows Phone 7\nYeah, I\u2019m pretty late to the game here. That said, I bet I\u2019ve played with this (thanks Shawn!) before most of the people I know or who read this blog. In fact, I\u2019d be willing to bet that most of the people I know never intend to ever giving it a try (so why are you still reading?). Well, if you\u2019re one of those people, you owe it to yourself to at least give Windows Phone 7 fifteen minutes of playtime at your favorite phone store or, even better, a 15-30 day trial from your favorite carrier. It\u2019s still a 1.x phone and, therefore, is missing some of the polish and completeness of it\u2019s iPhone and Android competition, but I think it\u2019s a fresh, cool approach to the smartphone category.\nAs a current Android user and a former (reformed?) iPhone user, I have a pretty good feel for what I use the phone for and what\u2019s most important to me. I don\u2019t play games on my phone. It\u2019s a communication device primarily, a synced data access device (think Evernote and Smugphoto) secondarily and web browsing device tertiarily (did I just make that up?). I run a handful of apps that don\u2019t fit into these categories, but they\u2019re icing on the cake rather than the cake itself. In that light, I found Windows Phone 7 surprisingly satisfying and quite a bit different from the other platforms.\nThe first thing you notice is how fast the UI is. Everything runs smoothly without pause. Even on mediocre hardware, the OS feels quick. Add to that the constant visual feedback and animation in transitions and the experience is just cool. Also out of the shoot, Microsoft\u2019s choices of fonts and font sizes make the display clear and easy on the eye \u2013 almost playful. The tiled, mosaic home page makes getting to what you want quick and painless. Since I use just a few apps, most of those being native to all leading phones, I can always get to what I want fast. That seems to be the goal of phone and one which it achieves . . . in a 1.x sorta way.\nEmail is my primary app when using a smartphone. Setting up the stock email program to work with my Gmail account (including contacts and calendar) was as easy as setting things up on Android. I\u2019m still a bit unsure if Windows Phone uses all the correct labels from Gmail for spam, trash, etc. There\u2019s also no basic \u201cArchive\u201d button, which I have become quite used to in Gmail. Also missing is threaded messaging. For some, that\u2019ll be enough of a deal killer. Apparently, MS is going to add it in a later rev of the software. Moving between messages is easy and reading them even easier. With threaded messaging and a little more Gmail integration, this email app could blow away the stock Android app. For example, it\u2019s much easier to move a message to a folder (change its label in Gmail-speak) than on the Android Gmail app.\nContacts get a little weird. If you\u2019re big into email like me, your contact list is critical. Windows Phone sucks down your contacts from Facebook and merges them with your other contacts. I don\u2019t like that at all. Segregation of contacts is important to me. I have Facebook \u201cfriends\u201d who shouldn\u2019t be allowed to mingle with my real friends, if you know what I mean. Apparently, there\u2019s a way to sorta separate them, but there\u2019s still bussing between the lists. Funny enough, Twitter followers or followees are not allowed to participate here \u2013 at all. Word on the street that this will be addressed in the next version.\nAs you\u2019d expect, there aren\u2019t many apps available. Important ones like Evernote are, but other basic ones aren\u2019t yet there. One gets the idea that they\u2019re coming. Just very slowly. If you\u2019re an app hound, the list may never be long enough on this OS for you. For me, I think the key apps will be there shortly.\nPerhaps the biggest current failing of the phone is no multi-tasking. Actually, I shouldn\u2019t say that there is no multitasking, the native apps seem to do it just fine. Zune runs in the background, mail downloads in the background, etc. It\u2019s just not available to third party apps. MS has to rectify this or this phone will be a total loser. Again, apparently they\u2019re workin\u2019 on it. Funny, it seems like they should know something about implementing multitasking, huh?\nBrowsing is fast and efficient. SMS is more than reasonable. Oh yeah, the phone works great, just like a phone should.\nI was pleasantly surprised with Windows Phone 7. Can Microsoft pull it off and become a contender? I hope so. Not only because I\u2019m a MS fan, but because I\u2019d love to see more competition driving this market.\nGadgets, Mobile, Software\nWindows Server 2003 (or Windows Home Server) Account Lockout\nI had a long power outage yesterday that caused my servers to shut down. While they are on UPS\u2019s, 5 hours or so without power ran \u2018em dry. When I tried to hook my desktops up to them after the outage, I couldn\u2019t access the shares one of the servers. I kept getting an error telling me that my account was locked out. When I used Remote Desktop to login to the server (with the administrator\u2019s account), the accounts were indeed, locked.\nAfter playing around for a while and searching for a solution on the net, I ran into a reference to a solution to a similar problem that was whacky enough to give a try. As it turns out, the clock on my server had not updated itself for some reason and, in fact, had been reset to some date in 2007. Once I updated the clock on the server to the correct date and time and reset the lock status of the account, I had no more difficulties. Apparently, this is a security feature. I just wish it had been a bit easier to diagnose.\nGet The Startup Playbook.

        "raw_content": "And How Did You Get It?\nWhat is type 2 diabetes? Is it really that different from type 1? How do you become diabetic? These are good questions.\nSince we learned that diabetes is not a single disease, doctors have been trying to define the difference.\nThe way you became diabetic defines what kind you have.\nIf your pancreas cannot make insulin because it was damaged by viral illness or an autoimmune disease, type 1 diabetes is the result.\nThe symptoms show up fast in children, but if type 1 appears in an adult those symptoms are slow.\nAdults can lose their beta cells so slowly that they look like type 2 diabetics for a while.\nBut the result is the same: high blood sugar. A type 1 diabetic must take insulin several times a day or slip into diabetic coma.\nThe modern insulin pump is the best thing for type 1 until an artificial pancreas becomes a reality.\nType 2 diabetes is a slow onset and chronic condition that creeps up on you silently.\nOver time your muscle cells grow more and more resistant to the insulin your pancreas is making, causing sugar and insulin levels to build up in your blood.\nHyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia are damaging your body, but you remain unaware unless you get your blood sugar levels tested.\nFor type 1 it is either an immune disorder or viral disease that destroys beta cells. But type 2 is a lifestyle disease.\nThe strong link between type 2 diabetes and obesity made researches look for the reason there, and they thought they had found it.\nFat, especially internal fat built up around organs like the pancreas and liver, inhibits the manufacture of insulin and the ability of the cells to use insulin.\nIf cells do not accept insulin's help, they cannot use the sugar that surrounds them, because insulin is the hormone that carries sugar into cells.\nYour starving cells send out a distress call, and you feel fatigue even though you are eating enough. Your liver answers by sending more sugar into your bloodstream. This only makes matters worse.\nThat is one reason that losing weight helps lighten the burden on your sugar-hungry cells. It is a fact that fatty tissue is resistant to insulin.\nAs researchers zero in on why some people have more internal fat stores than others, the question of what is type 2 diabetes might come closer to an answer, and a cure.\nOne problem with finding an answer to the question of what is type 2 diabetes is that doctors do not know why every obese person is not a type 2 diabetic. Type 2 diabetes can develop in someone who is mildly overweight too.\nWhat is the common factor? Or is it a combination of things going wrong?\nEven 2,000 years ago doctors knew that diabetes went along with low activity level and being overweight.\nIn the early 1900s a doctor discovered that the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas make the hormone for sugar metabolism.\nThen came the discovery of insulin in the 1920s. In 1935 diabetes was split into type 1 and type 2.\nType 2 was called sugar diabetes, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), and over-40s diabetes because it developed in older people.\nThey called type 1 juvenile diabetes because it was found in children. It seemed that things were getting clearer.\nBut now the question of what is type 2 diabetes has become muddied by a new problem.\nType 2 diabetes is showing up in children as young as 2 years old, and some children are showing symptoms of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes at the same time.\nSome doctors think there is a type 3 or even type 4.\nWorld wide type 2 diabetes is growing by leaps and bounds in spite of advances in care.\nSingle use syringes were invented in 1961. Glucose monitors were invented in 1969.\nIn 1988 the metabolic syndrome was identified, and all that time new medications were being approved to help treat type 2.\nArtificial sweeteners have grown in popularity all over the world without stopping the growth of obesity.\nThe number of new cases of diabetes doubled in the last 10 years, and over 90% of those cases are type 2 diabetics.\nThis is not just in the United States. England and Scotland are worried because of the same increase and the health care costs.\nIt is being discussed in third world countries where there is not much health care, not as a money drain but as a cost in lives.\nDiabetes is growing at an alarming rate in Bangladesh, one of the poorest countries in the world.\nThe common denominator seems to be the change from traditional foods to our Western diet.\nYour type 2 diabetes is a personal issue. What can you do about it? The answer is still the same.\nGet moving, become physically active in as many ways as you can think of, and cut back on the high glycemic foods that are a huge part of the Western diet.\nMake sugary and processed carbohydrates a tiny portion of your diet or cut them out completely.\nEat most of your calories in the high fiber categories of every food group. You will change, not overnight, but it will happen.\nWhile researchers are trying stem cells from patient bone marrow, which shows promise but is very expensive, you can be working toward your own diabetic cure.\nThen the question of what is type 2 diabetes will be answered in your own case. \"It is not the end of my life because I can change.\"\nReturn to type 2 diabetes from what is type 2 diabetes.",

        "raw_content": "23 November, 2011 11:48AM AWST\nFounding CEO says Hall of Fame will never make a profit\nNorma Latchford was at the first meeting to plan the creation of the Australian Miners and Prospectors Hall of Fame in Kalgoorlie in 1994. Last week the hall's board decided to close the facility because it couldn't cover operating costs. The former CEO says the solution lies with more government and industry support.\nThe hall of fame opened in 2001, after seven years of planning and fundraising. Norma Latchford was at that first meeting.\n\"On the first of July 1994 the Australian Prospectors and Leaseholders Association called a meeting in the Kalgoorlie Town Hall,\" Norma Latchford said.\n\"They invited councillors and members of parliament and I was sent as the representative of KCGM [Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines] and that's where it all started.\"\n\"The original vision wasn't as a tourist attraction. It was going to be a scientific and educational institution to tell the people about mining, and to have outreach programs, which we did succeed in doing.\"\n\"But it was also supposed to be an asset for the city of Kalgoorlie-Boulder as well, and a part of the community which they could get involved in. We brought in exhibitions from the National Museum, and the Kerry Stokes collection.\"\nSeven years of planning\nNorma Latchford eventually become the project manager during the foundation of the hall and served as CEO until 2008. She says the initial business plans were thoroughly developed.\n\"When the foundation committee was set up, a feasibility study was done.\"\n\"They brought in experts in education and tourism etc who looked at the whole concept of putting the hall of fame at the Hannan's North [where KCGM operated a tourist mining village] complex.\"\n\"The study said that with this added attraction and with mining companies supporting you, it will make a substantial profit, which of course it never did.\"\n\"I think what's happened is that because of the financial troubles the vision has narrowed to a certain extent.\"\n\"It's only seen now as a tourist institution, and I don't think it will succeed as that.\"\n\"There will never be enough visitors in Kalgoorlie to underwrite the costs of running the hall of fame. The vision always was that it would be supported by industry and by government.\"\nNo profit in museums\n\"People like to contrast it with the Stockman's Hall of Fame [in Queensland],\" Ms Latchford says, but points out there are crucial differences in the organisations finances.\n\"The Stockman's Hall of Fame, when it was built, got all of its funding from the state and federal governments. Any fundraising money they got was put into a trust, and that's what supports it now.\"\n\"Like the mining hall of fame, it doesn't make a profit.\"\n\"We did establish a trust and I still think that is the way to go.\"\n\"When the hall of fame was built I was the project manager and then CEO, and the board of directors, knowing that we were losing money, sent me on a fact finding mission to other museums.\"\n\"I went to the UK and America to find out how they raised money, and not one of them made a profit.\"\n\"Even the big institutions like the Smithsonian were surprised at what portion of our expenses we had covered. They are all supported by governments, states and philanthropy.\"\nMs Latchford says she's deeply saddened that the board has decided to temporarily mothball the hall of fame from next month while it searches for a way to make the organisation viable.\nThey're talking now about getting rid of the main building and just having the Hannan's North site. The Hannan's North site always lost money. It lost half a million dollars a year then, it never made money.\n\"To me this institution matters to the mining industry. There has to be a way forward.\"\n\"I always thought, and this is not only my vision, there were hundreds of people involved, that we would set up an institution here that would have education outreach officers, that would take open days for children to other centres.\"\n\"We would become this educational hub for the mining industry and to me that's the only way you can sell it.\"\n\"It's a tourist centre, but it has to be broader than that to attract money from the mining industry.\"\n\"I haven't been involved for three years so I don't really know what's been going on behind the scenes.\"\n\"I have sympathy with the board of directors and the management now because I know, from when I was there, it was a struggle.\"\nNorma Latchford was involved in the founding of the mining hall of fame in Kalgoorlie and served as CEO for seven years (Emma Wynne - ABC Local)\nNorma Latchford talks to Lorraine Horsley about the Hall of Fame\nFinancial crisis forces troubled Mining Hall of Fame to close\nMining Hall closure blow to Goldfields tourism\nMining hall of fame rescue plan to have jobs focus\nFundraising push on to save Mining Hall of Fame\nMap Hannans 6430\nTopics: libraries-museums-and-galleries, business-economics-and-finance, mining, mining\nLocations: hannans-6430",

        "raw_content": "Completed in 2008, Abu Dhabi International Airport\u2019s second runway, the North Runway, doubled the airport\u2019s runway capacity and made it the first airport in the UAE with CATIIIB capability, allowing landing during thick fog and in adverse weather conditions.\nThe CATIIIB classification, received in 2009, means the runway may be utilised when visibility falls below 125 meters, making it a fully independent runway system.\nRunway data\nThe runway is 4.1 kilometres long and 60 meters wide\nAn investment of AED 1 billion was made on its construction\nIt is located two kilometres north and parallel but offset to the original runway.\nAccommodating maintenance needs\nAn immediate benefit of the new runway was to allow maintenance of the current runway where necessary without affecting landings and takeoffs \u2013 an important step as Abu Dhabi International Airport operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week.\nMore on ILS classifications\nMost commercial and scheduled flights run under a system of regulations called Instrument Flight Rules (IFR). This is a set of procedures which allows pilots to fly using aircraft instruments only, even in situations where visibility is impaired (such as flying into clouds or landing in dense fog).\nTo assist pilots landing under IFR, airports incorporate Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) systems and lighting systems on their runways \u2013 known as Instrument Landing Systems (ILS).\nThe accuracy of the ILS at a particular runway gives it a classification from CAT I (the least accurate) to CAT IIIC (the most accurate). The category of a runway determines how low an aircraft can fly before being required to see the runway. For example, a pilot landing at a runway designated as CAT I must be able to see the runway from a height of at least 200 feet (61 metres), whereas a pilot landing at a CAT II runway can get to an altitude of 100 feet (30 metres) before they see the runway. The height at which the pilot must be able to see the runway is referred to as the \u201cdecision height\u201d.\nThe North Runway at Abu Dhabi International Airport is fitted with a full CAT IIIB Instrument Landing System. Specifically, it allows for an approach under IFR with a decision height lower than 50 feet (15 metres) and a runway visual range (the distance a pilot can see down the runway) of only 150 feet (46 metres).",

That protest in the capital Harare turned violent following a massive police clampdown.\nFollowing that was the national shutdown, a social media instigated protest led by Pastor Evan Mwarire, he was subsequently charged to court for subversion, a charge that the court dismissed.\nTeachers and nurses also stayed away from duty insisting that the only condition that would return them to their posts was for their June salaries to be paid.\nA purported communique from war veterans relinquishing support for Mugabe was the latest political setback for the government. That communique is the subject of a probe in what the government calls a \u2018traitorous and treasonable\u2019 act.\nAbout 80% of the active population work in the informal sector and the state is in dire need of cash. For the second consecutive month, payment of soldiers and civil servants\u2019 salaries was delayed.\nMeanwhile, 92-year-old incumbent President Robert Mugabe, the oldest head of state in the world, is still in line to represent the ruling ZANU PF in the upcoming 2018 presidential election.",

Such performance criteria can separately lead to different and divergent optimal solutions but, if they are considered as a whole, they are expected to result in several equivalent or similar sub-optimal shapes. This multi-objective optimization problem has been performed here with the aid of a Genetic Algorithm (GA). GAs explore and search widely for suitable solutions and, in this way, they become design tools rather than solution ones. Three benchmarks were established and then a more complex application was made to an existing case study, i.e. the Esplanade in Singapore, designed by DP Architects (DPA) and Michael Wilford & Partners (MWP).\nYou can read the full paper on ResearchGate.",

The results were that no, he hadn't been, but it is interesting that they got permission to exhume any president!\nAfter a week of extensive testing of tissues taken from Taylor's body, Dr. Greathouse and Dr. Nichols said the findings were conclusive. \"It's not borderline,\" Dr. Nichols said. \"He was not poisoned.\" Some Traces of Arsenic Found\nTests conducted here and at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge,Tenn., did discover traces of the common heavy metal in hair, bone and dried fleshy tissues from Taylor's remains that were taken from his crypt on June 17.\nThe arsenic levels,though, appear to be naturally occurring and far too low to be considered lethal, Dr. Nichols said at a news conference in the Jefferson County Courthouse.\nHe said levels of arsenic found in Taylor's remains would have had to be 200 to thousands of times greater than it was in order for the heavy metal to have killed him on July 9, 1850, at the age of 65.\nFor the body to be exhumed, permission had to come from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Taylor's body was only out of his crypt for about 5 hours. As to the samples that were used in the tests, what happens to them is up to the family.\nThe question of Taylor's death was raised by a woman working on a book:\nWhile most historians have accepted Taylor's death as natural, Dr. Rising said the suddenness of his illness was suspicious for a man whose health was widely known to have been robust. With secessionist fervor reaching a breaking point in 1850, pro-slavery factions desperately wanted to silence Taylor, a Southerner who opposed the extension of slavery and who wanted to bring California and New Mexico into the Union as free states.\nExhuming always seems a bit ghoulish to me, although the President of my interest, Roosevelt, has had quite a bit written about possible health problems at his time of death.",

The Works Progress Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps gave this land a second opportunity and through re-growth, a new role as a recreation area. Discover the scenic beauty of the park during all seasons. Catoctin Mountain Park has cultural treasures to explore too. The Whiskey Still, Sawmill, and the Charcoal and Iron industries are all featured along trails with wayside exhibit.\nPresident Franklin D. Roosevelt established a retreat in the Catoctin Park, a place to relax, within a 100 mile radius of Washington, D.C. and in the cool mountain air was sought. Several sites were considered but Camp Hi-Catoctin in the Catoctin Recreational Demonstration Area was selected after the President's first visit on April 22, 1942. A camp was already built on the site and the estimated conversion cost was $18,650. It was also almost 10 degrees cooler than Washington. The camp for federal employee's families became the camp of one federal employee, the President of the United States. Roosevelt quickly renamed the camp to \"Shangri-La\" from James Hilton's 1933 novel, Lost Horizon. Camp David continues to serve as the Presidential Retreat today. It is a private, secluded place for recreation, contemplation, rest, and relaxation. Many historical events have occurred at the Presidential Retreat; the planning of the Normandy invasion, Eisenhower-Khrushchev meetings, Camp David Accords with Menachem Begin of Israel and Anwar Sadat of Egypt, discussions of the Bay of Pigs, Vietnam War discussions, and many other meetings with foreign dignitaries and guests. Maintaining the privacy and secluded atmosphere of the retreat is an important role for Catoctin Mountain Park. The Presidential Retreat still remains within park boundaries but is not open to the public.\nDawn to dusk daily.",

        "raw_content": "DANISH STRING QUARTET \u2013 LAST LEAF / ECM New Series 2550 video\nRune Tonsgaard S\u00f8rensen: violin, harmonium, piano, glockenspiel\nFredrik Sch\u00f8yen Sj\u00f6lin: violoncello, double-bass\nWidely recognized as one of today\u2019s most exciting chamber groups, the Danish String Quartet not only brings new insights to contemporary composition and core classical repertoire; the DSQ has also explored folk music, beguiling listeners with these sounds on record and in concert. For Last Leaf, its second ECM New Series release, the group returns to the texturally rich, emotionally resonant world of Nordic folk, from ages-old Christmas tunes to timeless funeral hymns, from medieval ballads and boat songs to dances of every sort \u2013 minuet and waltz, reel and polska. The Danish foursome made custom arrangements of this material, playing the music with the lush tone and virtuoso focus that earned the quartet such praise as \u201cspellbinding\u201d from Strings magazine for its ECM debut of 20th-century compositions by Per N\u00f8rg\u00e5rd, Hans Abrahamsen and Thomas Ad\u00e8s. That album was also dubbed one of the best of 2016 by The New York Times, while The Guardian declared the recording \u201cterrific\u201d for the quartet\u2019s combination of \u201cgrace, grit and clarity.\u201d In its collectively written booklet notes to Last Leaf, the group says about its selection of folk tunes: \u201cIn these old melodies, we find beauty and depth, and we can't help but sing them through the medium of our string quartet.\u201d\nThe Danish String Quartet \u2013 violinists Rune Tonsgaard S\u00f8rensen and Frederik \u00d8land, violist Asbj\u00f8rn N\u00f8rgaard and cellist Fredrik Sch\u00f8yen Sj\u00f6lin \u2013 convened at the Kirsten Kj\u00e6r Museum, a favorite recording venue in Fr\u00f8strup, Denmark. There, with Sj\u00f6lin also playing double-bass and S\u00f8rensen adding harmonium, piano and glockenspiel for a glistening touch to the arrangements, the quartet captured the 16 pieces of Last Leaf, the album\u2019s title a reference to the oldest known secular song in the Nordic countries, \u201cDr\u00f8mte mig en dr\u00f8m\u201d (I Had a Dream). The magical melody was found on the last leaf of a parchment in the Codex Runicus from around 1300, written in runes and containing the so-called Scanian law as well as chronicling the early Danish monarchs. The meaning of \u201cDr\u00f8mte mig en dr\u00f8m\u201d has been debated, but most scholars seem to agree that it is a song about justice and fair play.\nBut it was an unusual Danish Christmas hymn that was \u201cthe initial spark of inspiration\u201d for the album: \u201cNow Found Is the Fairest of Roses,\u201d published in 1732 by Danish theologist and poet H. A. Brorson. \u201cIt is one of the most beautiful Danish hymns we know,\u201d the group explains. \u201cIt is written for Christmas, but unlike many Christmas hymns, it isn't only about Bethlehem and the holy infant; rather, it simply describes a fair rose, growing in a world of thorns and thistles. The hymn is set to a mysterious, somewhat dark melody, a tune that most people were familiar with in 1732. To the surprise of many, Brorson had chosen an old Lutheran funeral chorale to accompany his Christmas hymn, showing how life and death are always connected. We believe Brorson touched on something very important: That strong musical material can possess endless possibilities and it is meaningful to explore what happens when the \u2018function\u2019 of a melody is tweaked.\u201d\nThe stories behind this music \u2013 told in detail in the booklet notes \u2013 are often fascinating. The infectiously upbeat dance \u201cPolska from Dorotea\u201d is attributed to Swedish fiddler, teacher and cantor Johan August Andersson (1866-1902), who lived in the village Dorotea in Lapland. \u201cAndersson had a quite tragic life, losing his wife and daughter during childbirth, which resulted in a local scandal when he entered the church during service to publicly curse God,\u201d the quartet recounts in the notes. \u201cHe was subsequently fired from his teaching position, but was allowed to stay as a cantor, because he was such a good fiddler.\u201d\nAbout the piece \u201cTj\u00f8nneblomen,\u201d the group says: \u201cNordic folk music is traditionally music with a defined function: to accompany dancing. In the olden days, you were considered a good fiddler if you knew lots of tunes, you could play loudly for a very long time and, most important, you kept the beat. As time passed, fiddlers began fooling around with concertizing \u2013 performing the folk music at concert venues such as churches, with an audience that was just listening, not dancing around. Norwegian fiddler Gjermund Haugen (1914-1976) was one of the most important figures of this tradition, and he wrote this beautiful waltz.\u201d\nAnother highlight among the ancient folk tunes is \u201cUnst Boat Song.\u201d The group explains: \u201cUnst is the northernmost inhabited island of the Shetland Islands. If you sail out from Norway, it is the first place you will arrive, and there have always been lots of communication and travel across the sea. The \u2018Unst Boat Song\u2019 is a very old song, sung in the old Norse language that was spoken by inhabitants of Scandinavia and their overseas settlements during the 9th to 13th centuries. The text is about strong winds and begs the gods to bless the ships that are sailing. It is uncertain if it is a song sung by the men at the oars or by the worried women in home \u2013 no one knows if it is a song of struggle or a lament. In our arrangement, we sing it from the perspective of the women, who are praying for the safe return of their men.\u201d\nIn addition to the old tunes, Last Leaf incorporates three pieces \u2013 \u201cShore,\u201d \u201cIntermezzo\u201d and \u201cNaja\u2019s Waltz\u201d \u2013 written in a folk style by DSQ cellist Fredrik Sj\u00f6lin. The album also includes a reel, \u201cShine You No More,\u201d written by violinist Rune S\u00f8rensen after the harmonic progression of Elizabethan lutenist-composer John Dowland\u2019s iconic \u201cFlow My Tears.\u201d An additional contemporary piece written in a folk style is \u201cFast\u00e4n\u201d (Although), a polska by Swedish fiddler Eva S\u00e6ther.\nThe Danish String Quartet is a group with an almost lifelong history of musical collaboration. Its three members born in Denmark \u2013 Rune Tonsgaard S\u00f8rensen, Frederik \u00d8land and Asbj\u00f8rn N\u00f8rgaard \u2013 first played chamber music together in a music summer camp before they were even teenagers, and then continued to do so throughout the school year, driven by their own enthusiasm. In 2001, Tim Frederiksen of the Royal Academy of Music in Copenhagen, who had been the leader of Den Danske Strygekvartet, became the quartet\u2019s mentor and main teacher. In 2006, the group made its first recordings \u2013 of Carl Nielsen\u2019s quartets \u2013 as the Young Danish String Quartet, immediately attracting the attention of publications from Gramophone to The New York Times. In 2008, Norwegian cellist Fredrik Sch\u00f8yen Sj\u00f6lin joined the quartet, and the foursome has since gone from strength to strength, with concert programs embracing core classical repertoire and contemporary music (highlighting Scandinavian composers), as well as folk music \u2013 which they play with verve and deep feeling.\nHailed by the Washington Post as \u201cone of the best quartets before the public today,\u201d the Danish String Quartet has won many awards. In 2009, the quartet not only took First Prize in the Eleventh London International String Quartet Competition, but was awarded four additional prizes: the 20th Century Prize, the Beethoven Prize, the Sidney Griller Award and the Menton Festival Prize. The DSQ also received the Carl Nielsen Prize, Denmark\u2019s most important cultural award, in 2011. The New York Times has called the group \u201can exceptional quartet, whatever repertory they play.\u201d",

The result is a fresh, witty and sardonic account of the story. Ratmansky combines the grand spectacle of ballet from Soviet Russia with innovative choreography that has a contemporary edge, offering audiences endearing characters and a sense of sophistication. Cinderella is portrayed as a lonely dreamer and her stepmother as a vicious, tantrum-prone social climber. The choreography builds to a pas de deux of aching beauty and tenderness between Cinderella and her prince. The performances are complemented by spectacular sets and costumes that portray a more modern world of the 20th century.\nFounded in the 18th century and originally known as the Imperial Russian Ballet, the Mariinsky Ballet is one of the world\u2019s leading classical ballet companies.

        "raw_content": "Check out these cosmic catalogs for a look at some different deep-sky wonders.\nBy Alan Goldstein | Published: Thursday, January 24, 2019\nThese interacting spirals are in the early stages of colliding. A few billion years from now, they\u2019ll merge into a single boring elliptical galaxy.\nAdam Block/Mount Lemmon SkyCenter\nEver since humans first looked up at the night sky, they have felt compelled to record what they saw. The Babylonians of Mesopotamia compiled the first known star catalog more than 3,100 years ago, and other ancient civilizations followed with their own star catalogs. All were limited to what the naked eye could see.\nThe telescope\u2019s debut 400 years ago revealed objects invisible to the naked eye. As the universe began to unfold, astronomers developed new catalogs to record their observations.\nIn the 18th century, French comet-hunter Charles Messier created the first account of deep-sky objects that included both locations and descriptions. He did it to avoid \u201crediscovering\u201d previously observed faux comets. His list soon became the catalog of choice for amateur astronomers because the clusters, nebulae, and galaxies it contains are bright and varied. The objects also covered most of the sky visible from mid-northern latitudes.\nIn 1888, Danish-Irish astronomer John Louis Emil Dreyer compiled the next astronomical standard: the New General Catalogue. (For a more complete story on this catalog, see \u201cAn NGC primer\u201d in the September 2018 issue.) Based on visual observations, the NGC was the main source for non-stellar celestial objects for more than 60 years. Even today, it remains the preferred catalog for serious deep-sky observers.\nPhotography gradually replaced the astronomer\u2019s eye in the second half of the 19th century. And as telescopes grew up to 200 inches in aperture in the 1940s, the universe started to reveal its secrets at an astonishing rate. The National Geographic Society-Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS) was the first systematic attempt to photograph the entire sky visible from a single location (California\u2019s Palomar Mountain). Astronomers used hand lenses to study the black dots and blobs that appeared on the large photographic plates.\nIn the second half of the 20th century, large low-cost optics became available to amateur astronomers, and fainter, more obscure objects grew popular. Observers turned to newer catalogs to tackle objects that many folks a generation earlier had thought impossible to see. Completing these catalogs became badges of honor for amateurs seeking targets that few had seen.\nMany obscure catalogs have now become mainstream. Some of the objects they contain are easy, while others require large scopes and superb skies. Let\u2019s take a look at some of my favorite examples.\nRobert Trumpler studied open star clusters in the early 20th century to learn their distances, sizes, and distribution in the Milky Way. He investigated 100 clusters, 37 of which were unknown at the time and eventually became the Trumpler catalog. Although most of these clusters tend to be overlooked, a few are true gems.\nTrumpler 2 is a scattering of 20 stars about 2.5\u00b0 southeast of the Double Cluster in Perseus. This small collection glows at 6th magnitude across a distance of more than 2,000 light-years. Its brightest member is the orange star SAO 23469.\nTrumpler 3 lies 8.6\u00b0 east of the 3rd-magnitude star Epsilon (\u03b5) Cassiopeiae. At first glance, it shows about 30 stars in a 23' field, but astronomers have discovered some 570 members in total. Researchers estimate the 7th-magnitude cluster formed only about 70 million years ago, during Earth\u2019s Late Cretaceous period.\nTrumpler 5 resides just west of the Cone Nebula (part of the NGC 2264 complex) in Monoceros. This rich cluster contains some 150 stars packed in an area 7' across, but the 11th-magnitude object glows faintly enough that you\u2019ll need large optics for a good view. This ancient cluster lies in the direction opposite to our galaxy\u2019s center and appears to be between 3 billion and 4 billion years old.\nHalton Arp\u2019s famous 1966 Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies remains a favorite of deep-sky observers. Many of the catalog\u2019s 338 objects are bright (a few are Messier objects), while others pose a challenge for big apertures. Although Arp considered these galaxies peculiar for the way they looked, astronomers now realize most are interacting or colliding galaxies. As such, they often look intriguing through a telescope.\nArp 157 (NGC 520) ranks among the more unusual objects in Pisces. This edge-on pair of colliding galaxies looks like a triangular door wedge. Glowing at magnitude 11.4 and measuring 4.6' by 1.7', the object shows up through 8-inch scopes.\nArp 22 (NGC 4027) is a barred spiral galaxy with a single extended arm that looks like a comma through amateur telescopes \u2014 definitely not a typical spiral! This 11th-magnitude denizen of Corvus spans 3.8' by 2.3'. Its strange appearance likely arises from a collision with a smaller galaxy millions of years ago.\nA pair of spiral galaxies started to collide about 300 million years ago, creating this peculiar galaxy that one day will become a single elliptical.\nNASA/ESA/The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA)/B. Whitmore (STScI)\nArp 214 (NGC 3718) lies 3.2\u00b0 west of Gamma (\u03b3) Ursae Majoris. A distorted spiral with a large dust lane arcing across the middle of the disk, Arp 214 combines features of a face-on and edge-on galaxy. Shining at magnitude 10.7 and measuring 10' by 4.7', it is large and easy to observe. NGC 3729 is a smaller spiral to the east that likely collided with NGC 3718. Arp 322, a complex group of galaxies also cataloged as Hickson 56, lies 7' south of Arp 214 and in the same field of view.\nArp 84 (NGC 5394-5) is a wonderful pair of interacting galaxies often overlooked in favor of its neighbor in Canes Venatici, the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51, Arp 85). Arp 84 is visible through modest telescopes, though larger apertures reveal more detail. NGC 5394 is a magnitude 13.0 compact spiral measuring 1.7' by 0.7' with two faint, elongated arms. Glowing at magnitude 11.7, NGC 5395 is bigger (2.7' by 1.2') and has one arm sweeping in front of its disk.\nGeorge Abell: master list creator\nCaltech graduate student George Abell was among the first people to study the POSS plates after they were developed. As a result, he had first dibs on looking for new objects. His efforts produced three lists of different objects: planetary nebulae, globular star clusters, and galaxy clusters. He published the first two in 1955; the 1957 galaxy cluster catalog served as his Ph.D. thesis.\nAbell 12 is the easiest of the Abell planetaries to find because it lies just 1.2' west-northwest of 4th-magnitude Mu (\u03bc) Orionis. Like all low-surface-brightness planetary nebulae, an Oxygen-III filter increases its contrast with the background sky and makes it easier to see. This Sun-like star\u2019s death shroud spans 40\".\nAbell 21, better known as the Medusa Nebula, resides in southern Gemini near the constellation\u2019s border with Canis Minor. This crescent-shaped nebula measures about 10' by 6', which translates into a physical diameter of 4 light-years, placing Abell 21 among the oldest known planetaries.\nAbell 39 in Hercules is a ghostly cloud of ionized gas in the shape of an almost perfect circle spanning 2.6'. Like many Abell planetaries, it is a challenge, but observers with an 8-inch scope under a dark sky can see it.\nIt\u2019s hard to identify this 12th-magnitude globular cluster against the rich backdrop along the Ophiuchus-Sagittarius border.\nDaniel B. Phillips\nAbell\u2019s catalog of rich galaxy clusters initially contained 2,712 entries. After Abell died in 1983, Harold Corwin and Ronald Olowin continued the survey in the southern sky. They added 1,361 clusters, bringing the total to 4,073.\nAbell 262 glows at 13th magnitude and is one of several galaxy clusters in Andromeda visible through modest telescopes. It holds seven NGC objects and dozens of fainter galaxies in a compact field. Unlike most rich galaxy clusters, Abell 262 has a high percentage of spirals. It belongs to the enormous Perseus-Pisces Supercluster, which includes the Perseus Cluster (Abell 426).\nAbell 1367, the Leo Cluster, dwells 5.5\u00b0 north of 2nd-magnitude Denebola. The brightest cluster member, the mag\u00adnitude 11.8 elliptical galaxy NGC 3842, possesses a central black hole with a mass of nearly 10 billion Suns, making it one of the most massive black holes known. This spiral-rich cluster appears more than three times the diameter of the Full Moon, so you\u2019ll want to use a wide-field eyepiece to explore it. Many of the targets glow brighter than 13th magnitude; the challenge comes in identifying each object.\nPalomar globular clusters\nAlthough Abell created this list, several other astronomers helped find these\nglobulars on the POSS plates, and Helen Sawyer Hogg probably deserves the credit for giving them the \u201cPalomar\u201d name. Thirteen of these 15 clusters were unknown to astronomers of the mid-1950s. They are not easy to observe because they have low surface brightnesses, and interstellar matter obscures many of them. The three targets I\u2019ll highlight are among the toughest objects in this article. Seek them under the most transparent skies you can get.\nPalomar 6 rates as one of Ophiuchus\u2019 most challenging clusters. Embedded in a rich star field on the constellation\u2019s border with Sagittarius, Palomar 6 is large (7.2' across), faint (magnitude 11.6), and diffuse. It is one of four globulars known to harbor a planetary nebula, a 16th-magnitude object that spans 8\" on the cluster\u2019s north side.\nPalomar 8 in Sagittarius shines at magnitude 11.0, making it one of the list\u2019s brighter clusters. A round glow measuring 4.7' across, Palomar 8 lies 2.4\u00b0 east-southeast of the bright open cluster M25.\nPalomar 11 lies 2.3\u00b0 east-southeast of 5th-magnitude Kappa (\u03ba) Aquilae. Although Palomar 11 glows at 10th magnitude, that\u2019s deceptive because its light is spread over a diameter of nearly 10'.\nI hope this article entices you to explore the tip of an astronomical iceberg. You can find plenty more specialized catalogs online. Look for names like Collinder, Hickson, Sharpless, and Terzian \u2014 these are just a few that await discovery as you expand your universe.",

        "raw_content": "Category Tags: MP3 players, portable audio, RCA\nFor more on MP3 Audio and its implications for Audiophiles\nhave a look at these other stories:\nMP3: The Death Knell for High End Audio?\nCodec Considerations\nSugg. Retail: $349 (CAN, 64 MB Version)\nDistributor: Thomson Consumer Electronics\n6200 Edwards Blvd., Mississauga,\nOntario, L5T 2V7\nwww.thomson-multimedia.com\nLike most of the first wave of MP3 players to hit the market, the RCA Lyra is a very compact portable device, smaller than most cell phones, aimed at dethroning the discman style CD player from portable supremacy. Whereas some portables, like Creative Labs\u2019 Nomad, use computer style hard drives for file storage, the Lyra falls into the smaller, less expensive category of players using small, removable chip based memory cards. In the Lyra\u2019s case it\u2019s a system called Compact Flash memory, encased in a tiny plastic square maybe one quarter the size of a credit card that slots into the side of the machine. One disadvantage compared to CD portables is that without a computer, a device like the Lyra is about as useful as a car with no gas, making the players more popular with the already technologically inclined. Specifically, the only way to get music onto the flash cards is via the supplied USB cradle (parallel port versions are also available), which hooks up to your PC or Mac. Then, using a (free) program like Windows Media Player or the supplied Music Match Jukebox, you can load up the card with as much music as you like, assuming that it consumes less than 64 megabytes of data space.\nPop the card into the player and you\u2019re ready to rock. At 128 Kb/s, the standard for MP3 files on the internet, this gives you about an hour of music. While perhaps not sufficient for your next trans-Atlantic flight, it will probably cover your next workout. Unlike many portables, the Lyra will also support Real Audio and Windows Media Audio file formats in addition to the ubiquitous MP3. RCA also claims a measure of upgradability, allowing the possibility of accommodating future audio file formats as they become available. In terms of hardware, the Lyra comes standard with over the ear headphones (better than average, but the sonically discriminating will want to upgrade), memory card, car kit, and computer cradle.\nWhen it comes to music to accompany sports or a commute the Lyra has some very strong points in its favor. Not only is it very small and light, there\u2019s the random access people have come to expect from digital audio, aided by a large, backlit LCD screen displaying track information. There\u2019s also the flexibility of playing whatever songs you like in any conceivable order, including random.\nLike playing DJ? Every time you load up a Compact Flash card can be another customized mix. If you make use of playlists on your PC this process becomes even easier: just download one of your many pre-configured playlists to the card, and away you go. Also, skipping CDs become a distant memory, the Lyra imperturbable even during the most vigorous run. With no moving parts to spin, battery life is also superior, the Lyra subsisting on its original pair of AA\u2019s during the entire time I had it. Battery life is officially estimated at about 12 hours.\nIt doesn\u2019t lock you out of your CD collection either. Encoding CDs to MP3 on a computer an easy and quite speedy process. Once on your hard drive tracks can then be sent over to the flash cards, which, via the USB cradle, takes only a few minutes for a full hour of music. Combined with a service like Napster, the breadth and variety of music available becomes practically limitless. For someone like my wife the Lyra is ideal. A regular runner she loved the size and light weight, the skipless playback, and the fact that she could put all her favorite running tracks, and only those tracks, on the memory card.\nMP3 Sound on the Road\nWhereas with a home player like the Audio ReQuest ARQ-1 sound quality is a major factor, portables can get away with a lot more in this department. When listening through earbud style headphones, as I suspect the majority of users will, the sound was not significantly inferior to that produced by my wife\u2019s Panasonic SL-SX500 portable CD player, and could often be improved with judicious use of the 5 band EQ; a rarity on any portable audio player. On more serious headphones or through my main system, the MP3 artifacts described in my review of the Audio ReQuest unit could be heard, but it sounded like the Lyra was applying some kind of DSP to compensate, adding a slightly unnatural, but not unappealing airiness and spatiality to the sound and a slightly tipped up treble. If you\u2019re serious about your portable hi-fi you\u2019ll still want a CD based system with quality phones and some kind of Headroom style preamp to drive em\u2019. For basic commuting and workout duties, however, the Lyra sounds just fine.\nMy biggest problem with the Lyra turned out to be the LCD display. Fine at first, it made it very easy to navigate through the tracks stored on the Flash card. As time wore on, however, the display would gradually go completely black, returning to normal only after the unit was powered off and then on again. By the end of the test period it was completely black, all the time, and the player became essentially useless. I haven\u2019t heard about this happening on any other Lyras so I\u2019m willing to assume that it\u2019s an isolated case and that the problem would be covered under warranty.\nDon\u2019t Junk that CD Portable Just Yet\nEven with all it\u2019s strengths, there are several factors keeping players like the Lyra from usurping the position of the portable CD player just yet. First and foremost is price. Not only is the Lyra expensive to begin with, extra memory is very pricy, another 64 megabyte Compact Flash card costing more than most portable CD players alone, at US $249.95 (cards with less memory are also available: 16 mb is US$99.95, 32 is US$149.95, and 48 is US199.95). Playback time is clearly another factor, the Lyra being unsuitable for the long trips so many people buy portables for in the first place. To get serious data storage in a portable you have to jump up to the Nomad, from Creative Labs, which, with 6 gigabytes of storage holds over 100 hours of music. This, naturally, comes at a price, the Nomad listing for US$749 (at the time of writing, however, Amazon.com was selling it for just US$419. I also found the 64 megabyte Lyra for as little as US $199). Finally, if you\u2019re not inclined to spend any more time futzing with your computer, it may not be the solution for you. As with the Audio ReQuest home unit, as well as software MP3 players used with personal computers, a certain amount of time and energy is required to organize, name, and transfer files. The more files, the more work. On the other hand, if you love making mixes, then you\u2019ll probably enjoy this process and won\u2019t see it as work at all.\nLike the AudioRequest ARQ-1 home player, portables need a little more time to evolve. As they continue to exploit the ever increasing competitive advantage of continuously falling data storage costs, I suspect we\u2019re going to be hearing digital music in file form just about everywhere.\nFor more on MP3 Audio and its implications for Audiophiles have a look at these other stories:",

        "raw_content": "Custom Designed Crystal Awards: Quicker, Easier, and More Cost Effective\nIf your organization needs a custom designed award and you\u2019re working on a tight deadline or have to make do with a small budget then a custom crystal award might be the best option for your award choice. Unlike bronze or pewter awards, which require a fairly intensive design and creation process, crystal awards come in a variety of pre-cut polyhedral shapes, saving a significant amount of time. The lead-time to create crystal awards is usually about 2 weeks if the design is based on one of those pre-cut polyhedral shapes. The real custom design comes down to the engraving on the outside or inside of the crystal form.\nThe custom engraving on crystal awards can be done in two ways. One option is to have a 2D image engraved on either the surface of the award or inside the body of the award. The engraved image could be a corporate logo or organizational icon, or more of an artistic and organic figure or geometric design\u2014pretty much any form you can think of can be engraved into the crystal! A single image can be used, or, alternatively, a number of images can be combined to create a unique and striking effect. For instance, the New York AIR Society designed a crystal award that contained a variety of balloons (one of their organizational icons) in different shapes and sizes and had multiple shapes engraved within the crystal.\nThe other option is to have a 3D image engraved inside the body of the crystal award. This process is usually referred to as \u201csub-surface engraving\u201d and the end effect is that the object appears to be \u201cfloating\u201d inside the crystal block. The 3D image presents a new and unique view from every angle and looks as if a tiny sculpture has been encased in crystal.\nIf you can\u2019t decide between the 2D and the 3D engraving options it\u2019s actually possible to combine both in a single award! A 3D image, such as your organization\u2019s icon, can be engraved within the award, and then text and a flat logo providing specific details about the award (name of the award, name of the recipient, date, etc.) can be engraved on the surface of the crystal. This is the design style a local football team winning the California state championship decided to embrace. It gives you the ability to really turn your crystal award into something utterly unique and more like a piece of artwork than an award.\nIn summary, crystal awards represent a simple, quick, and cost effective option to meet your custom award requirements. Like any other custom award, the most important thing is to ensure that your crystal award design matches the spirit of your organization and celebrates those who will be receiving your award.\nNewer PostUse Custom Sculpture Awards at Your Next Company Recognition Ceremonyf\nOlder PostQuality Matters When Making an Impact!",

She holds a PhD in English and Creative Writing from the University of Denver (2007) and an MFA in Writing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2002).

        "raw_content": "BTD Blog\nI personally wouldn\u2019t see the point in going to a meeting\nBelieve me, as PW shared, they ARE prepared for your critical questions. I went to one MLM meeting with my husband. Even when I was pro MLM and \u201cworking the business\u201d we were still a bit in shock at the \u201crah rah rah\u201d idolization and almost worship of the MLM head and top distributors. As they encouraged us to bring potential distributors to these meetings, I remember thinking, \u201cyeah right\u2026I\u2019d be too embarrassed to bring anyone here\u201d.\nThe only thing I can think of to relate this to is how I have learned to parent, especially in the toddler years (though it still works now). Kids want no direction from parents at certain phases and in order to get through it,we would calmly in a non chalant manner state the consequences of certain actions WITHOUT attachment to outcome. Once they know what you want them to do, its over.\nFor instance, if green beans are not eaten, then there is no dessert. But I do not put a lot of energy into getting them to eat the green beans, I state the consequence and walk away not showing anything on my part for a desired outcome. Eat the green beans, don\u2019t eat them\u2026it is up to them.\nTheir choice, they have the control.\nIt might be a good frame of mind to reference if/when you do pose questions to your son. I feel for you. And hope your son sees through the fog sooner than later.\nFirst, I don\u2019t think you\u2019re ready to take on a meeting\nIf you go to one of these meetings and start asking \u201cnegative\u201d questions (or questions that force an unbiased examination of what they\u2019re doing), you will cement your status as a nay-sayer and give up whatever ground you might have gained between now and then.\nConfrontation is never a good idea, imo, with someone who is the victim of cult tactics, and you\u2019ll find yourself in a room full of cult victims, probably LED by a cult victim. Remember, most of the people running the day-to-day operations of these things are unaware of the scams. They are simply doing what they\u2019ve been taught to do.\nUnless you are EXTREMELY well-versed in the questions you would likely encounter at a recruitment meeting or a \u201cnut-and-bolts\u201d seminar, they will tear your questions to shreds. They\u2019re trained at doing that. I know. I was able to do it from the other side of the table. (While I was not able to recruit very many people when I was involved, I was very adept at convincing most of my prospects that I was not involved in something unethical or illegal.)\nAnd finally, in regards to the money questions:\nYes, it is usually rude to inquire about someone\u2019s personal finances. But is this or is this not a BUSINESS? You\u2019re asking about how much money your son\u2019s upline earns from the same business into which he was recruited. They (A/Q leaders) frequently talk about taking business advice from people who have \u201cthe fruit on the tree.\u201d Well, is it rude to ask what kind of fruit they have and in what quantity? Is that not a germane question to ask if they\u2019re going to limit who you can consult on the same criteria?\nAnd when it comes to business, income and outflow are frequently in the conversation. It is NOT rude; it is normal and expected.\nA few years ago, my wife and I were offered the opportunity to enter into a partnership with a medical practice near our home. The owner of the business provided us with all manner of documentation to illustrate the financial health of the company -INCLUDING his PERSONAL tax returns. He wanted to ensure that we understood what sort of income and profit his practice was generating and that he was not putting on some sort of \u201cbetter-than-it-actually-is\u201d front by having an undisclosed income source.\nThis sort of thing is not rare in business transactions. But it is almost unheard-of in MLM. They give every kind of excuse, but the one that seems to go unquestioned is that it\u2019s rude to ask about one\u2019s income. And again, I used it while I was involved to deflect MY lack of income from the business. It was \u201cI\u2019m just getting started.\u201d I was \u201cjust getting started\u201d for more than five years! And I never felt a twinge of guilt about saying it, since I was never any farther along, in terms of profit, than \u201cjust getting started.\u201d\nKeep reading. Keep asking those questions. Look at other web sites, including the ones that defend the business. Learn how participants view their activities and how they justify them. If you can manage it, go on a crash course, hitting as many sites as you can stand at a time. That may allow you to say the right things to your son without having to put yourself through a meeting in which you\u2019d be vastly outnumbered.\nFor the most part, it\u2019s a one-on-one effort getting people involved. It may (in many cases) be a one-on-one endeavor to get them out.\nHave you had a chance to read back through the posts on the message board?\nLenna and I both have sons in Quixtar. We have the same concerns and feelings about this MLM as you do, as well as many others at this forum. You probably won\u2019t find the magic answer you were hoping to find, but you will find lots of information, suggestions and support. Talking with others that know and understand first hand what it is like to have someone you love in a MLM has truely been a gift for me.\nChip and Deb suggested that your son pay rent if he is still living at home. I think that is a good idea because that\u2019s part of being an adult and also so that ALL their money can\u2019t be spent on QS products.\nMy son lives at home. He pays rent (weekly), has a car payment, has his own car insurance (not under mine), and has his own cell phone bill. I know that my son would be paying more for rent if he wasn\u2019t living at home, plus he would have utility bills, which would leave him with less money for Quixtar products. The flip side to that is #1.I think that if he is living at home I have a better chance at asking questions that may plant the seeds that get him out of QS and #2.The money that he pays for rent I put in a separate savings account in my name, which he doesn\u2019t know anything about, so that one day when he gets out of this scam if he is in debt that money can be used for that. If he doesn\u2019t have debt the money can be used for furniture for an apartment or maybe saved for a down payment on a house. I figure it will help with a start to a new life.\nIts not easy helping someone to think outside the fog\nQuestions said in a non confrontational way where the answers SHOULD make them think on their own is what I mean. Like, \u201cSo how much money exactly does your sponsor make\u2026I mean, really make after you deduct expenses?\u201d The trick I suppose is feigning an actual interest in his business without supporting it (or enabling him). But you\u2019ll be asking questions that they are used to hearing from naysayers. Mind you these are normal questions that anyone should visit when getting involved in any business venture but MLMers are taught that those who ask them are \u201cnegative\u201d. How much time do you spend, how much money do you make, how many people actually make any money, etc. will all usually get you some sort of hostile response.\nI\u2019m not sure there\u2019s anything anyone can actually do to help someone see through the cult like fog of MLM BUT I will say that for me, being somewhat vocal to my family/friends about my research and feelings on MLMs\u2026.has helped. Some family members thought briefly about getting involved in an MLM but with them knowing my stand, asked me some questions first, approached it hesitantly and at the first sign of trouble (which happened before they even received their initial order\u2026thank you Arbonne) they bailed out.\nif he is not going to school \u2013 then he should be paying room and board. You would still be cheaper than him living on his own\u2026.LOL!! And it may sound cruel, but the faster he runs out of money, the faster he may \u201csee the light\u201d.\nI am responding to your inquiry\nabout how others decided for themselves to get out of the business. My parents joined the business when I was 12. My dad quickly saw through the BS, did independent research and quit the business. My mother was taken in and is to this day 100% sold on \u201cthe system.\u201d (My parents have, by some miracle, stayed married but the strain Quixtar has caused on the marriage is very evident.)\nWhen I graduated high school at 18 I began attending functions with my Mom and became totally engrossed in the system. I did attend college; however, I did not take it seriously and used it more as a way to meet potential recruits than for education. My three best friends completed college and went on to law school and medical school. I felt sorry for them because I knew that by the time they got out of school I\u2019d be a diamond \u2013 we would all be wealthy but they would have to work and I wouldn\u2019t. I was completely unconcerned about the future \u2013 I\u2019d listen to tapes, sell products and be retired on a beach by the age of 25.\nWhen I was 21 my upline encouraged my boyfriend and I to marry and focus on the business, and we did so. I am not one who tries to blame the negative in my life completely on Quixtar \u2013 I like to think that even in the thick of things I was still somewhat capable of thinking for myself \u2013 but I do know that without Quixtar my marriage would have had a stronger chance of success. For one, we would not have married so young. Secondly, we would not have blown our finances on The System to the point where, literally, we could barely eat, much less pay our bills. The system took its toll and I got divorced at 26 after 5 years of marriage. I\u2019m not sure we even had a real marriage; our honeymoon consisted of going to a function and we were trusting and young and did everything our upline said.\nAt this point I began a lot of self-searching and wondered why my marriage had failed, why I was not in fact as successful as my friends who had now graduated from law school and medical school, why I was watching my own parents\u2019 marriage crumble, etc.\nI don\u2019t know why but I did a search for Quixtar on the internet. I had been told a million times not to look at negative websites because they were full of false information put on the internet by losers who were not strong enough to build Quixtar. I put aside that notion just for a moment and looked at some of the websites \u2013 I have never felt more like a traitor in my life. I found a book by Eric Scheibler called \u201cMerchants of Deception\u201d and stayed up until 2:00 a.m. that same night finishing it. Things began to click \u2013 I had met Mr. Scheibler and been at many of the events mentioned in his book. I sent my father an email. He had never been pushy over the years \u2013 he was smart enough to know that challenging the system would only push me farther into it. However, once I brought the subject up, he sent me some case law regarding the Quixtar busines and especially the support system. I began to read and learn. At first I was filled with doubt, then as I came to accept, was overridden with guilt at all the people I had inadvertently hurt through my Quixtar business (which still bothers me today.) I was angry, confused, worried for my mother, thankful that I had gotten out, and unsure of what to do next. I was so used to asking for upline support when making decisions that I didn\u2019t know how to make it on my own.\nI\u2019m now almost 29 and have been free of the business for 4 year. I honestly, for the first time I can remember, love my life. It wasn\u2019t an easy road, but I think for myself, have a wonderful boyfriend and a great job, and can make friends naturally without thinking of the entire world as prospects. It was a long journey for me and it might be for your son as well, but hang in there and try not to give up.\nSorry, this turned more into my life story than a helpful answer for you. If you can get him to read Mr. Scheibler\u2019s book it may help.\nHowever, don\u2019t force it on him \u2013 perhaps download it to the computer and he will come across it on his own. People all along tried to tell me I was in a cult, but until I started to question and doubt on my own, I didn\u2019t listen to them. Just be there, love him and be there when the light does come on.\nthese observations come from me as someone who\u2019s casually observed the tendencies of friends\u2019 kids who are also either bipolar or OCD \u2013 I have no background in psychology or medicine.\nYou seem to have a double-edged problem here \u2013 a son who\u2019s been sucked into a blog who wants him to \u201cconform\u201d\u2026..and he suffers from a condition that seems prone to addictions. From reading posts on this forum, I\u2019m convinced there\u2019s a LOT of people who get addicted to the artificial \u201chigh\u201d that surrounds these Motivational Forums. They LOVE the \u201cexcitement\u201d and \u201clove\u201d and \u201cpositive attitude\u201d that everyone seems to exude. But they\u2019re TRAINED to be that way, and yes, because they try to separate their recruit from the rest of the naysayers (that would be you!)\u2026they DO operate like a cult.\nAnd you son needs to be handled like he has an addiction. Do NOT help him financially or be an enabler\u2026but DO ask questions that hopefully will make him question what he\u2019s doing. There\u2019s some helpful stories in the files section, of others who have helped their loved one escape the pull of the AMOs.\nI was in Amway back in the 1990s\nas well as Reliv & Freelife in the 90s as well. I highly recommend you read Steve Hassan\u2019s book, \u201cReleasing The Bonds: Empowering People to Think for Themselves\u201d, and read the information on his website on Amway/Quixtar. Read on both Amway & Quixtar. Quixtar is going to be called Amway Global, as he international \u2018business\u2019 is called now. This should make it easier for others to know they are Amway. Quixtar was just a different name for Amway in the USA (& I think Canada, but not sure). They will probably do even worse, after they go back to the Amway name. They are going to have other changes. I don\u2019t know what they are, or why they are doing them.\nDoes anyone know what they are, or might be, and why they are implementing the changes?\nI\u2019m sorry you and your family are dealing with this\nIts so sad how many families are impacted negatively by MLMs.\nI\u2019m not sure this will be helpful but no one in my family said a word to me about my MLM. Even my husband supported me (though I found out later he had his doubts). It was my own questioning in the face of the reality that A) I wasn\u2019t making a dime and B) I was spending a lot to not make a dime.\nMaybe if you found a way to pose questions in a supportive way where the answers might spur some thinking?\nThanks to everyone for their responses\nFor others struggling with a family member in a cult, I\u2019m finding Steven Hassan\u2019s book very helpful. I agree that confrontation will not work. It just makes him distrust us. I\u2019m looking to build trust with him right now in hopes that he will see me as an ally rather than a parent who doesn\u2019t get it.\nMy son keeps saying he\u2019s not in it for the money \u2013 he\u2019s doing this to help other people. One of the reasons he is so enamored of Quixtar is because he feels he has gotten many non-financial things from the business: friends, a sense of belonging and purpose, dreams, hope, spirituality, etc. He said he\u2019s always wanted to \u2018save the world\u2019 and this is how he\u2019s going to do it. When I hear that, it scares me the most because just losing money isn\u2019t going to deter him from \u2018his dream\u2019.\nIt would help me to hear people\u2019s stories of how they decided to get out of their MLM business. What kinds of things did your family or friends do that helped you to quit \u2018the business\u2019? What helped you to see this thing was a scam and get out? Were there actions taken or things said by family members or friends that affected your thinking? If so, what were they? I understand everyone is different, but it would help me to hear what others found helpful in their experience.\nI don\u2019t want to be confrontational with someone who\u2019s trying to be helpful\u2026\nWhere on Earth did you get this? How do you spot someone, say in a mall, on the street, in a bookstore, anywhere, who has \u201cthe slightest self-doubt?\u201d\nAnd who DOESN\u2019T have a least a little self-doubt?\nMLMs do not distinguish who they are trying to get involved. The pitches that are used to promote them are designed to catch anything that will work *for that individual prospect.*\nIf you\u2019re looking for a part-time income, the MLM rep will promote that.\nIf you\u2019re looking for a full-time income, they\u2019ll promote that.\nIf you\u2019re looking to retire, they\u2019ll promote that.\nIf you\u2019re wanting to help a friend or family member out financially, or even if you just want to put more into the church or charity, they\u2019ll promote that.\nIf you want to get rich, they\u2019ll promote that.\nIf you want better vacations, they\u2019ll promote that.\nThey don\u2019t go after people who are self-doubters, or frustrated in their jobs, or weak-willed, or dumb or na\u00edve. (I\u2019ve heard all of those characterizations used to describe the \u201cbest prospect for MLM.\u201d)\nAre you getting the idea? There is not one specific thing that MLMs go after when seeking recruits. There is not one type of person who is more likely to get involved in MLM.\nThere is no blanket statement that covers it all. Anyone can be preyed upon if the rep happens to say the right things at the right time.\nIs your son living with you?\nI am only asking because sometimes parents subsidize their grown up children\u2019s indulgences by providing them food and shelter. (I think reality sometimes strikes quicker when one has to make enough to pay rent, utilities and insurance). While this is ok sometimes, with things like MLM, tough love is sometimes called for. There are other Qx mommies here who can advise you better on this aspect, but it is food for thought.\nIf you can do this in a way that is non-confrontational\nyou\u2019re likely to have better success. You\u2019ve already discovered what confrontation does \u2013 it leads to dug-in heels. (Sorry, but the question about his upline being a friend without buying CDs is confrontational. OF COURSE, his answer would be \u201cYes.\u201d He doesn\u2019t know otherwise right now. My wife and I thought our upline would care about us, too.\nHaven\u2019t heard from them in over 6 years now.)\nThere\u2019s an old expression that, paraphrased, says, \u201cIf I tell you it\u2019s true, you can doubt me, but if YOU find out it\u2019s true, then you must believe it is.\u201d If you tell him it\u2019s a scam, he can choose who he wants to believe. But if he finds out *on his own* that the claims that it\u2019s a scam are true, he cannot doubt it.\nBe gentle and lead him to find the truth on his own. Then be there for him when the light goes on. He\u2019ll need support when he exits. And above all else, don\u2019t offer anything that resembles \u201cI told you so.\u201d\nTell your son or you do a search for Larry Winters Tax Evasion\nMaybe that will put a put enough questions in his mind to wake up. I was brainwashed by these people for more years than I want to admit. They are good at it. Try to get him to miss a function some how. The fog lifted after that for me. For me when someone challenged me I got more determined. But, I thought these people were who they say they were.\nAs soon as I realized they were not I started to see the light. Hope this helps. Ask him if his upline would still be his friend if he wasnt buying the CD\u2019s?\nThese people prey on people who have the slightest self-doubt\nThey look for a nitch in the armor of good people who have good intentions. I sat in my first Quixtar meeting listening to a guy named Dick Wilson say things like, \u201cDo you want to continue being a failure all your life?\u201d This question may make most people angry, but this is a way of weeding out the undesirables. It is shock thearpy, but in a very bad way. There are 40 or 50 other people at these meetings who are already brainwashed, and all of them wearing their one best suit of clothes because they are told they have to portray a positive view of everything. The all gather around you and tell you how happy they are since joining quixtar and how wonderful life will be and how they all are going to help you. If they were sinking on the Titanic, they would all be standing on deck telling each other how pretty water was till they were dead. If one of them started to complain, they are taught that even listening to a negative thought or word will cause them to, \u201cgo back to being a failure like they were in the past\u201d. The leaders of this cult are pure evil. The keep telling you that success is right around the corner if you will just stick with \u201cthe plan\u201d.\nThink of it as getting slight fever. A normal person would slow down from their regular pace of life, rest, drink plenty of fluids and possibly consult a doctor. Quixtar would tell you that it is not a fever that is slowing you down. They will tell you that is it is all in your mind and that drinking water is just admitting to the negative thought you are ill. As you get worse, they remind you to look at all the other successful people around you, and that THEY have learned to put aside the negativity and become successful. As you get worse, they tell you that you need to work harder, and buy tapes and books to learn to overcome your false ideas that are causing your negativity which in turn is making you think you are sick. Most people would notice it and get treatment, but Quixtar tells you that if you that if you admit the sickness is there, you are already a failure. They tell you to ignore it and so you get weaker and deeper into their cult\u2026and they are a cult. Dick Wilson actualy told me that he and his wife never get sick and that the reason my wife was disabled was because of my negativity.\nSome Quixtar leaders present it as a new business idea. Others, like my group, presented it as doing God\u2019s will by meeting the needs of others through Quixtar. They told us it was our job as fellow belivers in God to help too, or we would not be pleasing God. There is nothing they will not say to get you hooked and keep you hooked. You are not even allowed to ask questions if the answer could possibly be a negative one. If you ask \u201cWhy?\u201d, you are told you are lacking in faith and you should feel ashmed of yoruself for causing other to fail with your negativity. If you continue to ask or complain even a short time, the entire group will not ony stop listening to you, but will totally cut you off from all communications. The word is passed through out the group that you are now an undesirable. When I quit I told the head man and then called the person who signed me up a few hours later. The word had already been passed. All the guy who signed me up would say was that he had been told he could not talk to me. He was total brainwashing!.\nIn my opinion the people who head Quixtar should be held responsible for crimes as bad as murder. The year I was in it 5 people killed themselves. There was a youth pastor who taught the kids at his church that the only way to happiness was to do God will, and that was to follow Quixtar plan to the point of ignoring everyone who said anything negative, including their parents. People who are the least bit desparate or feel they need to take a chance to \u201cmake it big\u201d will listen\u2026and then the Quixtar leaches will suck the life out of them. In my opinion the leaders of Quixtar are liars, thives, home wreckers and murderers. Keep inmind that the guilty ones are the few at the top. They rest are unsuspecting victims. Occasionally one of the victims finds favor with one of the top people and is \u201cinvited into the special top bunch\u201d which makes a ton of money off selling the teaching CD\u2019s and materials to the group. It is at that point they make the transition from victim to attacker.\nIf you are a couple, they will start telling the woman that unless she pleases her man physically, she will be the cause of his failure and they will both fail. An by pleasing I do not mean bringing him a cup of coffee and a newspaper. Whether religious beliefs are used, or just business tricks, the Quixtar cult is all about control.\nI\u2019d sure be miffed at spending my money on a class just to be a captive audience for someone\u2019s MLM pitch.\nStill if you\u2019re thinking of going legal, learn more here \u2013 installment loans no credit check, I\u2019d probably either talk with the girl or complain to the teacher. While I\u2019d not want my learning experience tainted, I wouldn\u2019t want to get her in too much trouble (since I look at her as ignorant).\nSo I\u2019d give her a chance to do the right thing. I might print out the school rules on business promotion and have a heart to heart with her in a kind way. It might be all that\u2019s needed. Or all the classmates could complain to the teacher and let her do the heart to heart. Only then if the MLM speak didn\u2019t stop would I go to the school administrators.\nMy take on it. Hope it gets resolved for you soon.\nI don\u2019t like other mlms pussing their products on me either!\nTry to politely, but very sternly, tell her that you are not interested in her candle business. You are at school to learn \u2013 no be pressured into purchasing candles!\nIf polite sterness does not work, she may have to face the fact that she is an annoying idot who needs to keep her mouth shut and learn about massage \u2013 after all she\u2019s paying a tuition to learn massage \u2013 not push candles!\nI\u2019d do some web research on the drone\u2019s MLM\nprint out some key pages on this particular group, then print out a couple others, then go to the head of the school again and tell her what happened, but also explain to her how the teacher\u2019s question opened the door on it.\nAnother option is to memorize a few links that show the problems with this MLM, or have them printed out on small pieces of paper, even blank business cards would do. When she does that in front of the class again, if she mentions the company name, wait until she finishes, raise your hand and *politely* mention that you\u2019ve researched the company and that there are many experts consider it a pyramid plan (don\u2019t say scheme, that\u2019s too offensive). You can add you have experiences with them if it fits and even say you\u2019ve got links for those that don\u2019t believe you. This would have to be done VERY gently.\nIt would turn this woman against you, but she\u2019s a drone, so you knew that could happen. If this happens a few times, she might realize that just mentioning her company will invoke a response that it\u2019s a pyramid plan and might realize that at least around you she should shut up.\nbut I would let it be known that I would much prefer to stick a wick in a cow patty and burn that, at least then you know what you are smelling is Bull Sh*t but nobody is getting rich from my money. In my books that smells much sweeter than any mlm product.\nI have been enjoying massage school over all\nI need help though. Yesterday in massage class, we talked about aromatherapy. How it works ect. The teacher asked all of us what our favorite scents where and why and the crazy mlm chick did it again. She said \u201cI love the scents as soon as I walk into my house\u201d. \u201cI have a candle business and I sell them and I love my candle biz\u201d. She adressed the whole class including the teacher. She is really starting to push the schools limits and I see other peoples tolerance levels being tested.\nAnybody know the polite way to handle this and is there a legal way? It\u2019s very distracting and destructive to the learning and non judgemental environment they have. Should I get a petition together with the other classmates?\nThe teacher also asked another question about our \u201cwhy we love our favorite scents\u201d, the mlm girl tried to answer in an mlm speak way and at least the teacher cut her off this time. Kudo\u2019s to the teacher!\nThis, right here, along with your previous attempt at posting\nshows you do NOT know what this group is about. In the email you\u2019re sent when you join the group it tells you about the group and tells you what to read before posting to this group. In that material it states clearly that there is no effort toward balancing our discussion. As far as we are concerned, ALL MLMs are bad. Why? Well, when you\u2019ve got people who have lost loved ones to an MLM, then coming in here, to a survivor\u2019s group and saying, \u201cI\u2019ve got a good MLM\u201d is like going into AA or Al-Anon and saying, \u201cHey, I know you\u2019ve had trouble in the past, but try this beer. It\u2019s not like the rest.\u201d\nYou are careless, thoughtless, and egocentric. Yes, those are personal attacks and people here know I don\u2019t use personal attacks, but in this case, I can back it up. You were sent, on joining, material to tell you about this group. You didn\u2019t read it. You barged right into a group of people who have been hurt by MLMs. Some of us have seen our children, parents, loved ones, and friends brainwashed by MLMs and had relationships and families destroyed by them. And with all that pain, you want to barge in here and tell us, \u201cHey, some are good.\u201d That\u2019s careless and thoughtless. Even when you were told that it was clear you had not read what this group is about, you still insisted on jumping in and having your say. That\u2019s egocentric.\nI know you won\u2019t post this but feel it is important enough to try\nRecently a member asked for help with a problem and like Hal I providered that member with how they should handle their issue.\nI received a thank from them because what I recomended took care of the issue.\nHal and I have already had a run in because both of us feel deeply about certain issues, which we seem to have different outlooks on.\nI was burned by a \u201cbad\u201d MLM company big time. Being honest if someone mentioned MLM I went off on them. BUT much later in life I was talked into \u201cLOOKING\u201d at an opportunity. That one happen to be a company that puts it people first.\nAll I am saying is please don\u2019t judge all by the ones that scam it\u2019s people. Be wise enough to completely check them out before you do anything and that includes rejecting them off hand.\nAsk the people here what they know about the company and check other sources as well. Do the research before you commit either way.\nI wish you as many blessing as there are grains of sand.\nabout 8 years too long\nand poorer for the experience. I can relate to glynis.\n8 years + with the same \u201csystem\u201d: INA. They peddled their books/seminars/tape program\u2026 I bought in line and sinker, and spent almost every waking moment outside of my \u201creal J.O.B\u201d working it: Making new contacts, buying prospecting tapes, giving them out (and getting about 50% of them back), buying \u201cdemo kits\u201d \u201ckits\u201d, being on all the programs, etc\u2026\nI worked it hard for a spell, because I didn\u2019t want ot go the way of the \u201ccircles\u201d and the job chart\u2026 so, if things didn\u2019t work out, I redoubled my efforts, and threw more time into it, along with more money into the \u201csystem\u201d.\nAs a result, didn\u2019t get too far \u201cin the business\u201d (shade short of 2500), Didn\u2019t have that \u201ckiller mentality\u201d that is needed to fool enough people into buying into the system\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Forest Preparatory School celebrates top inspection result\nForest Preparatory School has been rated excellent in all areas, the best grade possible, following a recent inspection by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI).\nThe school received a glowing report from inspectors, who stated that \u201cthe quality of pupils\u2019 academic and other achievements is excellent\u201d and \u201cthe quality of the pupils\u2019 personal development is excellent.\u201d\nThe co-educational, independent school underwent an integrated educational quality and focused compliance inspection by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI), earlier this month. ISI Inspectors operate under the Ofsted framework, approved by the Department for Education.\nExtracts from the report include the following:\nPupils make excellent progress due to engaging lessons and consistently high expectations.\nPupils\u2019 skills, knowledge and understanding are highly developed in all areas of learning and are applied effectively across all subjects.\nPupils\u2019 communication skills are excellent. They speak articulately, listen attentively and their high-quality writing is evident throughout their work.\nPupils display outstanding attitudes to their learning. They demonstrate initiative and independence and are highly successful collaborative learners.\nThe report also comments that pupils develop a deep awareness of themselves, demonstrate a natural acceptance and tolerance of their peers from other cultural backgrounds and describes the behaviour of pupils throughout the schools as \u201cexcellent.\"\nForest Preparatory School currently has 195 pupils and welcomes children from the ages of two to eleven years.\nRick Hyde, Headmaster, said: \u201cBeing rated as excellent in all areas is a fantastic achievement for the school and is not something that is easily achieved. The outcome of this result makes us a leading prep school nationally and reflects the hard work and ability of all our children and staff, not to mention the support we receive from our parental body; I\u2019m incredibly proud to be part of such a happy and exceptional school community.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Adjunct professor named State Poet\nRick Benjamin will work to expand the public face of poetry through arts-related activism\nCourtesy of Rick Benjamin\nEveryone deserves to experience poetry, \u201cwhether those people are 6 years old, or 90 years old, or incarcerated or getting their GED at the community center,\u201d said Rick Benjamin, the newly appointed State Poet of Rhode Island and adjunct assistant professor in the Center for Environmental Studies.\nGovernor Lincoln Chafee \u201975 P\u201914 announced Benjamin\u2019s appointment as the fifth State Poet of Rhode Island in a January press release. Benjamin will serve a five-year term, replacing previous State Poet Lisa Starr.\nA poetic post\nThe position, created in 1989, does not entail any specific duties by law. But according to a publication by the Office of the Governor, it \u201cis traditionally held by an artist who represents the highest achievement in poetry\u201d in the state and who \u201cserves as the principal advocate for poetry in Rhode Island.\u201d\n\u201cFor many years already I have been involved in poetry and community engagement,\u201d said Benjamin, who is the author of \u201cPassing Love: Poems\u201d and a forthcoming collection entitled \u201cFloating World: Poems.\u201d Even so, his selection came as \u201ca big surprise,\u201d and it was an honor just to be nominated, he said.\n\u201cDr. Rick Benjamin is an accomplished and committed poet and educator who has taken his love for and belief in the power of poetry far beyond the classroom and out into our Rhode Island communities,\u201d Chafee said in the press release.\nBenjamin has participated in various nonprofit organizations and programs that promote the arts among the wider state community. Through his involvement with initiatives such as Rhode Island River of Words, Project 540 and New Urban Arts, Benjamin has extended his passion for poetry outside of academia.\n\u201cI wish that as part of our citizenship here we take seriously the idea that art needs to be in public schools, and that public schools right now are suffering with a lack of the arts,\u201d he said.\nOne of his goals as State Poet is to \u201ctry to circulate more enlightened thinking through poetry,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe this medium is charged with (a) level of transformation,\u201d he said. \u201cIt has incited people to change and to think differently.\u201d One of his specific aims is to find a sponsor to fund several classes and workshops for teachers, especially those in Rhode Island public schools. These classes would be geared toward giving teachers incentives to explore their own creativity, he said. He also wants to increase poetry and arts education in general in public schools, he said.\nEveryone has something to learn from poetry, he said. Each community has something unique to offer, and any program trying to bring two different groups together through poetry will result in a \u201crich exchange\u201d for both parties, he added.\nJourney back to Brown\nBenjamin currently teaches two courses at Brown this semester: AMST 2961: \u201cPoetry in Service to Schools and the Community\u201d and ENVS 0520: \u201cWild Literature in the Urban Landscape.\u201d\nWilliam Serratelli \u201916, who is taking \u201cWild Literature,\u201d called the seminar-style course \u201cinformal,\u201d adding that Benjamin presents himself as though he were \u201cjust a student.\u201d Benjamin often uses a metaphor to describe the class as \u201ccaught in a dense thicket,\u201d Serratelli said. \u201cOur job is to wander through this thicket together.\u201d\nBenjamin does not dictate a specific direction for his students to take, Serratelli said. Instead, it is \u201cthe fact that we\u2019re all searching together \u2014 the journey is what we\u2019re supposed to get out of it,\u201d he said.\nBenjamin has taught courses in several departments, including literary arts and English. He is also currently lecturing at the Rhode Island School of Design.\nAbove all, Benjamin said he is happy to be able to continue doing what he enjoys. \u201cI will always be interested in combining my work as a community practitioner with my life as a teacher and as an artist,\u201d he said.\n\u2014With additional reporting by Alison Silver\nTalk with Rick, and you quickly learn that poetry has the possibility to unlock the creative part in all of us. In doing so the jumble of a world in which we live suddenly becomes clear. If you want to see his passionate view of poetry in action look up Life, Loss, Love. This is a marvelous group of poems by elderly folks he has taught who have created poetry for the first time in their lives. Gov. Chafee was wise to pick Rick as the RI poet laureate. By having Rick as an adjunct assistant professor Brown shares in this honor. I am jealous of William Serratelli \u201916. I would love to have had such a teacher in my day. It should be noted that Rick\u2019s poetry has a strong champion at home. His wife is Margaret Klawunn, Vice President for Campus Life and Student Services.",

On the other hand, Tibetans have only pursued the study of the Buddhist logic and philosophy and we always use logical approach in our pursuit.\u201d\nHis Holiness mentioned that in the re-established Monastic Universities in India, there are 10,000 monks and nuns who are trained and equipped to teach the ancient Indian wisdom.\n\u201cNow we have ten thousand monk students who have studied this tradition for twenty to thirty years.\u201d He added that they are available to teach the ancient knowledge among Indians.\n\u201cI am hoping this knowledge should be used by our Indian friends.\u201d\nAt the age of 83, His Holiness said he has committed himself \u2014with the help of the monastic community\u2014to revive the ancient Indian knowledge through education based on the Indian secular understanding.\n\u201cMy latest commitment is to revive this knowledge through education, not through puja. Of course that is part of Indian culture, but real culture is the knowledge that is within. That is India\u2019s culture.\u201d\nHe asserted that ancient Indian knowledge is not only relevant but valuable in today\u2019s world where societies are fundamentally facing an emotional crisis.\n\u201cThe Nalanda tradition does not only contain the explanation of Buddhism as a religion, it encompasses a profound explanation on understanding of human psychology, emotions and how to tackle them.\u201d\nThe entire corpus of Buddhist texts could be classified into three: Science, mainly mind and emotion; Philosophy and Religion. Of which, His Holiness argued that the Buddhist science and philosophy can be introduced in education system as an academic subject on human mind and emotions.\nDescribing himself as a student of Nalanda, he paid tributes to the erudite Indian masters who introduced Nalanda tradition in Tibet. \u201cIn 8th century, Tibetan emperor married Chinese princess, but he realised that the most authentic and advanced Buddhist tradition exists in Nalanda. Therefore he invited the top scholar and logician Master Shantarakshita,, who introduced Buddha dharma according Nalanda tradition in Tibet.\u201d\n\u201cIndia\u2019s ancient knowledge is very useful to today\u2019s world. Now in order to help other countries, first this knowledge should be revived in this country. You, Indians please pay more attention to your ancient knowledge on inner world. Without inner peace, we cannot achieve external peace,\u201d His Holiness concluded..HH told once \u2013\nBuddha Head Found amid New Excavation Efforts in Gujarat, India The Coming Fight for the Dalai Lama\u2019s Soul",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Patangrao Kadam established Bharati Vidyapeeth in Pune in 1964. The mission that Bharati Vidyapeeth has defined for itself is to bring about intellectual awakening of people through the spread of education and to prepare human resources needed for all round development, particularly economic, of the country.\nBharati Vidyapeeth had a very humble beginning. Bharati Vidyapeeth had its birth in a small room in a remote corner of an old part of Pune City. The onlookers then could not digest the word \"Vidyapeeth\" (University) in the name \"Bharati Vidyapeeth\". A newspaper once sarcastically commented that this Vidyapeeth borne in a congested lane of Pune City, would meet its natural death there itself. But that was not to be so. Bharati Vidyapeeth flourished and flourished extensively. It achieved ever greater heights of success. It went in search of new horizons and expanded its sphere of activities at an unbelievable speed.\nIt was around 1963, when he was still a part time school teacher that Dr. Kadam was disturbed on seeing that not many Maharashtrian students could get admissions to national level institutions such as National Defence Academy or clear competitive examinations. He noted that the root cause of this was a relatively weak foundation of these students in subjects such as English and Mathematics. With a view to promote interest and liking in the minds of the students for these two subjects, Bharati Vidyapeeth, since its inception, started conducting competitive examinations for school going children in the same. This subsequently became its major activity, which still continues.\nBharati Vidyapeeth Today\nSince its inception, Bharati Vidyapeeth has made astonishing strides in the field of education, particularly, higher and professional education. Now, it conducts around 180 educational units of various kinds\u2019 right from pre-primary schools to postgraduate institutions and a university. It runs more than 78 schools and 60 institutions of higher education, including those of professional education. Among these are colleges of Medicine, Dentistry, Ayurved, Homeopathy, Nursing, Pharmacy, Engineering, Management, Hotel Management & Catering Technology, Environment Science, Agriculture etc.\nToday, Bharati Vidyapeeth has its campuses in New Delhi, Navi Mumbai, Pune, Solapur, Kolhapur, Sangli, Karad, Satara, and Panchgani and at quite a few other places. Bharati Vidyapeeth is probably the only organization from Maharashtra having its campus in the capital city of India. It is not in the urban areas alone that Bharati Vidyapeeth has started its institutions. Its schools and colleges have dotted rural areas and even the remotest tribal and coastal areas of Maharashtra.\nInception of Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University)\nApril 26, 1996 was the moment of crowning glory in the life of Bharati Vidyapeeth, as well as, of Dr. Kadam. It is the day the Government of India, on the recommendation of the University Grants Commission, granted the status of \"Deemed to be University\" to a cluster of 12 institutions of Bharati Vidyapeeth in appreciation of their academic excellence. It was the day a dream come true for Dr. Kadam who cherished an ambition of gaining the stature of a university for Bharati Vidyapeeth since its inception. Thus, Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University) came into existence on that day. It was a unique Deemed to be University.\nThe Govt. of India has brought the following seven institutions of Bharati Vidyapeeth located in different cities within the purview of Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University) as its constituent institutions vide their Notification No. E9-16/2004-U3 dt. 25/02/2005. With the inclusion of these seven institutions located at different places. Bharati VidyapeethUniversity has now become a multi-campus Deemed University.\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Institute of Management and Research, New Delhi\nBharati Vidyapeeth's College of Architecture, Pune\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Institute of Hotel Management and Catering Technology, Pune\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Yashwantrao Mohite Institute of Management, Karad, Dist. Satara\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Institute of Management. Kolhapur\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Institute of Management and Rural Development Administration, Sangli\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Abhijit Kadam Institute of Management and Social Sciences, Solapur\nIn addition, the Govt. of India has also brought the following two colleges within the ambit of Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University) vide their Notification No. F9-7/2004-U,3 dt.19/08/2004.\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Medical College and Hospital, Sangli\nBharati Vidyapeeth's Dental College and Hospital, Navi Mumbai\nUnlike most of the Deemed Universities in the country, Bharati Vidyapeeth is a multi-disciplinary and multi-campus Deemed University, presently having under its umbrella 29 institutions of various disciplines. The University has established its credentials and reputation as a leading Deemed University in the country. Taking advantage of the autonomy which it has and the flexibility which it can offer, this University has introduced numerous innovative academic programmes and activities.",

        "raw_content": "Joe Harper to Receive Eclipse Award of Merit\nJoe Harper \u00a9 Del Mar Thoroughbred Club\nDel Mar Chief Executive to Accept Honor at 48th Annual Eclipse Awards at Gulfstream Park Racing and Casino on January 24\nThe National Thoroughbred Racing Association, Daily Racing Form and the National Turf Writers and Broadcasters today announced that Joe Harper, who has led the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club over the past 40 years and enabled Del Mar to become one of North America\u2019s most successful racetracks, has been selected to receive the Eclipse Award of Merit in recognition of a lifetime of outstanding achievement in Thoroughbred racing.\nHarper, Chief Executive Officer of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, will receive the Award of Merit at the 48th annual Eclipse Awards Dinner and Ceremony honoring the 2018 champions of Thoroughbred racing on Thursday, January 24 at Gulfstream Park Racing & Casino in Hallandale Beach, Fla.\nSince coming on board in an executive capacity at Del Mar in 1978, Harper has guided this majestic seaside track\u2014founded in 1937 and bordering the Pacific Ocean just north of San Diego\u2014through a period of sustained growth and success to become one of the leading facilities in North America. For many core and casual racing fans, Del Mar is considered a \u201cmust see\u201d destination featuring an ambiance of casual elegance accentuated by world-class racing and an extraordinarily entertaining customer experience.\n\"American Racing has the tradition of Saratoga, the history of the Triple Crown, the majesty of Santa Anita, and the unbridled joy of summer at Del Mar,\u201d said Hall of Fame trainer, two-time Triple Crown winner and four-time Eclipse Award Outstanding Trainer winner Bob Baffert. \u201cJoe Harper is the maestro of that summer celebration, the exuberant leader who makes sure every year that Del Mar maintains its special place in racing\u2019s heart. Joe Harper is Del Mar, Del Mar is Joe Harper, and no one deserves the Eclipse Award of Merit more than Joe.\"\nUnder Harper\u2019s stewardship, Del Mar has grown to the point that it now offers some of the west\u2019s best racing, as well as its highest overall average daily purse structure, which in turn has led to robust handle figures. In recent years the track also has taken a prominent position in health and safety measures for its horses and riders that have proven highly effective and been emulated by others in the industry.\nSome of the other signature accomplishments under Harper at the helm of the DMTC include:\nThe creation of the $1 million Pacific Classic in 1990, which became the track\u2019s signature race and quickly established itself as one of America\u2019s most important races during the second half of the sport\u2019s calendar;\nReconstruction and opening of a new $80 million grandstand during 1991-1993 to further enhance the comfort and convenience of the facility;\nCreation of the \u201cCool as Ever\u201d marketing campaign, which further expanded the track\u2019s popularity and prominence beyond horse racing;\nAddition of a fall meeting following the closing of Hollywood Park, a move that helped preserve year-round racing in Southern California; and\nHosting a record-setting 2017 Breeders\u2019 Cup World Championships.\n\u201cI\u2019m certainly honored to be selected for an award that has gone previously to so many exceptional people in our wonderful world of horse racing,\u201d said the 75-year-old Harper. \u201cBut I\u2019d like everyone to know that I am going to accept it on behalf of the incredible employees of Del Mar who have \u2013 for over all the years \u2013 been the backbone of our success. My first job at Del Mar was as a cinema photographer during the 1967 summer meet. I saw and could tell right away that this was a family working together for a good cause that they all believed in. I think we\u2019ve been successful in keeping it that way for the half century or so I\u2019ve been involved with it.\u201d\nIn 1978, Harper took on a leadership role at Del Mar after serving at Santa Anita as Executive Vice president of the Oak Tree Racing Association. At Del Mar, Harper first served as executive vice president and general manager. Then in 1990 he took on the roles of president and chief executive officer. In 2018, he relinquished the role of president, but continues as the track\u2019s CEO. He has been a director of DMTC since 1985.\n\u201cUnder Joe Harper\u2019s leadership, the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club has been one of Thoroughbred racing\u2019s great success stories for many years,\u201d said Alex Waldrop, President and CEO of the NTRA. \u201cJoe\u2019s acute attention to the customer experience, his ability to assemble an extremely talented management team, and his willingness to adapt to the changes confronting our sport over the years while maintaining the highest standards make him a very worthy recipient of the Award of Merit.\u201d\nNot known as a micro-manager, Harper\u2019s style is exhibited by trust placed in his staff and management team. His show business upbringing helps him to \u2013 literally \u2013 see the big picture. A native Californian, he is the grandson of Cecil B. DeMille, the famed producer, and as a child actor appeared in the \u201cGreatest Show on Earth\u201d and \u201cThe Ten Commandments.\u201d\nAt the same time, Harper is renowned for getting close to those who work on the grounds each day a Del Mar. For many years, Harper would get on a pony and take up a spot near the backstretch gap at sunrise where workers and gallopers would enter the track. Horsemen got used to seeing him and eventually would amble over on their horses, and relate there every day experiences. \u201cWe solved a lot of Del Mar problems before they ever became problems,\u201d Harper noted.\nOne of those problems Del Mar faced was changing times in the racing world.\nDel Mar has a rich history based on its co-founder, show business icon Bing Crosby, and all his Hollywood friends. To this day, each racing card begins and ends with a recording of Crosby\u2019s song, \u201cWhere the Turf Meets the Surf.\u201d But racing\u2019s attendance fortunes began to change in the late 1990s and early in the 2000s with the advent of full card simulcasting and flagging attendance. Del Mar faced the challenge of selling itself to a younger, stylish crowd that wanted more than the past to believe in.\n\u201cWe were in a meeting batting around ideas about promoting the track,\u201d Harper remembered, \u201cand someone said that this is a really cool place to work. Craig Dado, our marketing chief, grabbed it. Let\u2019s keep the past but bring it right up to the present \u2013 \u2018Cool As Ever.\u2019 A perfect mix, just like \u2018where the turf meets the surf.\u2019 So we throw in music and festivals and events of all sorts and go after the young crowd with those hooks \u2013 and they love it. In the end, we\u2019re all about entertainment, both out on the track and in everything that goes on around it.\u201d\nThe campaign, which featured additional events including world class horse racing, proved eminently successful in revitalizing the on-track experience at Del Mar as a must attend event, with attendance increasing as much as 25% over the past two decades. The campaign earned such prominence that it was adopted as a case study by the Stanford University Graduate School of Business.\nHarper\u2019s dream of hosting a Breeders\u2019 Cup World Championships at Del Mar was realized in 2017 with spectacular results. Del Mar was announced to host the event in 2014, which coincided with the opening of a new and expanded turf course. The track was enhanced with temporary structures to add to the existing ambiance. Del Mar set a Breeders\u2019 Cup on-track record handle of $25,181,317 over the two days of the Championships. The economic impact on the San Diego community reached $96 million.\nIn addition to his work for Del Mar over the years, Harper also is involved in a wide range of industry and community activities. He is a member of The Jockey Club, the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation and the Advisory Board for the University of Arizona Race Track Industry Program. He is the former President of both the Thoroughbred Racing Associations of North America and the Federation of California Racing Associations. He also serves as Chairman of the Advisory Board of the California Center for Equine Health at U.C. Davis, and as Chairman of the Winners Foundation, a drug and alcohol counseling center for the California racing industry. Additionally, he serves on the board of the San Dieguito Boys and Girls Club. Harper takes personal pride in serving as a Trustee of the Cecil B. DeMille Foundation. Through that Foundation he has been very active in supporting education and film preservation at U.S.C., U.C.L.A., and Chapman University. The DeMille Foundation was the major contributor toward the construction of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Research Center in Beverly Hills, Calif.\nHarper and his wife of 55 years, Barbara, live in Del Mar. They have four daughters and nine grandchildren.\nEclipse Awards tickets are available for $425 each or $4,000 for a table of 10. Blocks of rooms have been reserved for Eclipse Awards guests at the JW Marriott (formerly the Turnberry Isle Resort) in Aventura, Fla. Additional details can be found on the NTRA website at NTRA.com/eclipse-awards.\nThe \u201cblack-tie optional\u201d Eclipse Awards is part of a full week of events that will culminate with the third running of the $9 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational and the inaugural running of the $7 million Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational, on Jan. 26. Separate tickets to the Pegasus World Cup are available on the Gulfstream Park website at pegasusworldcup.com.\nTickets to the Eclipse Awards also include an invitation to a spectacular Friday night, Jan. 25, party in the Gulfstream Park walking ring on the eve of the Pegasus.\nEclipse Awards voting is conducted by the National Turf Writers and Broadcasters (NTWAB), the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) and Daily Racing Form. The Eclipse Awards ceremony is produced by the National Thoroughbred Racing Association.\nThe Eclipse Awards are named after the great 18th-century racehorse and foundation sire Eclipse, who began racing at age five and was undefeated in 18 starts, including eight walkovers. Eclipse sired the winners of 344 races, including three Epsom Derbies.\nContact: Jim Gluckson, Eclipse Awards, 646-335-6835",

It helps you grow, it helps you question and it really tests you. I went through a test of patience, of morals and of choices everyday, but I\u2019ve come out a changed person. I feel I\u2019m able to see different perspectives and understand people and their motives much better than I could ever have before,\u201d he said.\nFor him, the family week was the most emotional one.\n\u201cSeeing Teejay (wife) and (their children) Bella and Vienna gave me a lot of strength. Yes, I didn\u2019t want to let them go, but when Teejay told me, \u2018Be someone they can be proud of\u2019, I knew I was already doing that but I wanted to all the more continue on that path to make my little girls proud,\u201d said the \u201cKasautii Zindagii Kay\u201d actor.\nALSO READ: Sunburn gives 2019 a booming start\n\u201cI am not a quitter and I think you have seen that in the last three months,\u201d he added.\nThere was also a time when Teejay issued an open letter to the team of \u201cBigg Boss\u201d asking them not to \u201cshame\u201d Karanvir on Sunday Weekend ka War episodes. He later apologised to the show\u2019s host Salman Khan on her behalf.\nAsked about it, he said: \u201cHonestly, I don\u2019t know what was in the letter and so, it\u2019s difficult for me to comment too much about it at this point. She had her perspective and I had mine staying inside the house. \u2018Bigg Boss\u2019 is a show that asks you to put forth your opinions strongly and Teejay did that outside the house.\u201d\nHe is now looking forward to the release of his film \u201cHume Tumse Pyar Kitna\u201d.\nALSO READ: Goa Sunsplash will now be three-day festival\n\u201cIt is releasing in 2019. I would love to take up anchoring as well as web series, both of which I haven\u2019t yet been a part of. And of course, I am open to television as well. For me, work has to be non-repetitive and after \u2018Bigg Boss\u2019, I\u2019m all the more ready for new challenges,\u201d said Karanvir.\nnn/sed\nTags: fighting karanvir outright start",

        "raw_content": "Frequent visitors to the site will know that the name we\ufffdve given to what we\ufffdre doing with Positive Psychology in Scotland is the Vanguard. Well on Wednesday we had our final two Vanguard events for 2006. They were held in the Hub in Edinburgh. The morning was devoted to education and the afternoon to an update on developments in Positive Psychology. Judging from the buzz on the day, the verbal feedback and the evaluations, both events were a huge success. As usual Professor Martin Seligman was a big attraction.\nThis was the third time that I had organised an event in Scotland with Martin Seligman as the keynote speaker. Seligman is very taken with Scotland and, according to his assistant Andrew who accompanied him on this trip, he talks a lot about Scotland on his various travels. One of the great attractions for Seligman is the Scottish Enlightenment. Francis Hutcheson, the father of the Scottish Enlightenment, wrote extensively about happiness and Seligman believes he was one of the early Positive Psychologists. Since Seligman likes to position PP as a new development in social science, and as he is aware that Scotland invented social science during the 18th century, he is also keen to see Scotland have a leading role in its dissemination.\nDuring his two-night stay in the capital, Seligman got a real injection of historical Edinburgh. Not only did he speak in the Hub, which was once a church at the top of the Royal Mile, but also we sat and had a drink with Nick Emler, another of the speakers, in one of the very atmospheric wee pubs up the steps at the back of Waverley Station. What\ufffds more we had a lively dinner discussion in a great restaurant which not only served lovely food and wine but afforded him a fantastic view of an illuminated Edinburgh Castle.\nWhile he was here, Martin Seligman also managed a quick tour of the Scottish Parliament building. He was much impressed. He loved the architecture \ufffd particularly the Garden Lobby - and the views out of the window on to Salisbury Crags. He also thought that, unlike most legislatures, it seemed genuinely family friendly.\nI had two trips to the USA this year, and one each occasion I was so happy to get back to Scotland. America is a huge country and, of course, it has lots of things to commend it, however mainstream American culture is fairly dull. By contrast, Scotland has a fascinating history and a rich culture. No wonder Professor Seligman went back saying that his trip here had been one of the highlights of his life. No doubt when the Vanguard rolls on next year, we\ufffdll invite him back and he can savour more Scottish delights.",

        "raw_content": "Getting EQ in perspective\nI haven\ufffdt been blogging much recently as I\ufffdm too busy writing other material. The Centre is planning to publish a book I\ufffdm writing called the Confidence Handbook, mainly aimed at teachers. It should be out by the end of August. As part of my research I\ufffdve been looking at Emotional Intelligence. I read Daniel Goleman\ufffds book when it first appeared in 1995. I had a passing interest in it and not much more and I\ufffdve never been overly impressed. It never featured in any of the work I did as a trainer. I\ufffdve now discovered that Goleman\ufffds book has attracted a huge amount of criticism from psychologists. Why?\nFirst, the term and some of the book is considered an intellectual rip-off from earlier work by two psychologists Mayer and Salovey who had first coined the term. Goleman does not adequately credit their work in his own book. More importantly, Mayer and Salovey restrict the term to emotional ability. In their work, it is about being able to recognise, for example, different emotions in facial expressions. This means that emotional intelligence is not just about subjective feelings but about right and wrong answers. In other words it is a measurable intelligence similar to IQ. But Goleman adds on to this just about every other positive characteristic he can think of \ufffd optimism, self-control, persistence, empathy. At one point he equates emotional intelligence with Csikszentmihalyi\ufffds concept of flow (losing oneself in a challenging activity). At another point he says that emotional intelligence is essentially about \ufffdgood character\ufffd. This is not to say that these characteristics are not important it is just, as Mayer and Salovey point out, they can\ufffdt be put in a package and labelled \ufffdemotional intelligence\ufffd. They argue that this mixed bag of characteristics not only don\ufffdt fit together but that they might even be add odds with one another. Consider this example: computer nerds find it very easy to get into flow. They lose themselves in computer programming, or games or the internet. Are they empathetic people? Do they have good character? Of course we cannot assume this as these characteristics are completely different from the capacity to experience flow.\nFinally, Goleman makes huge, unsubstantiated claims for EQ. IN his book he says that IQ only accounts for about 20% of success in life. The implication is that EQ accounts for the remaining 80%. A number of his followers expressly make this claim. But psychologists say this is nonsense. No personality trait or characteristic has ever been shown to be that important in the whole history of psychology.\nThis is not to say that something called emotional intelligence does not exist. It is just that we must be careful to define the term and not to claim that it is the psychological equivalent of sliced bread.\nOliver Harding\nComment Posted: 04/04/2007 13:55 I find emotional intelligence quite a useful concept. I would recommend Seven Steps to Emotional Intelligence by Merlevede, et al which seems to draw on well-established and evidence-based psychological theories. In particular the 7 levels: environment, behaviour, skills, beliefs and values, identity, connectedness, spiritutality - provide a framework which can be applied to almost any issue of health and wellbeing.\nComment Posted: 07/04/2007 14:06 The philosopher John MacMurray never talked of emotional intelligence but his work is redolent of it. He used the term 'chastity', meaning emotional sincerity i.e. having a genuine understanding of feelings - one's own as well as those of others. For him such an understanding is the essence of good relationship.\nMacMurray suggested there was a hierarchy of the emotions. Some were truer than others, some more real and more valid than others. From this a system of right and wrong could be inferred creating a virtual morality based on this specific sense of chastity.\nIt is hard to think of any human context that would not be improved were a sincere respect employed for how actions impact on feelings. This imperative has for long enough been the kernel of the world religions but unfortunately few as yet have been able to live by it.\nI think John MacMurray's arguments come as close as any to defining an absolute morality. Were this to be achieved the effect on human congress would be transformative. Maybe better than sliced bread actually. Something of a holy grail no less.",

While I'm not even the slightest bit Irish, I wholeheartedly enjoy pulling out some green and getting into the spirit, and this year that included participating in Sunday's Under Armour Kelly St. Patrick's Day Shamrock 5k, for the first time since 2013. Even though that was 3 years ago, I vividly remember that 5k, mainly because I really had to use the restroom, so I was highly motivated to run as fast as possible. I also overlooked the fact that there was no bag check, and opted to run with the UA knapsack on my back...rookie mistake.\nI'm going to be completely honest with you in sharing that my time was nowhere near where it was 3 years ago, mainly because I walked the course this time around. Unfortunately, I suffered a very minor (non-running related) concussion the Monday before the race, and while I'm feeling much better, I chose to listen to my body and not push myself for the sake of writing this blog post. My fianc\u00e9 on the other hand, who is taking on his first 50k this weekend, was in it to win it!\nWhile I found walking this 5k to be an extremely humbling experience (I'm pretty competitive by nature, and found myself overcome by the adrenaline of all the festive runners decked out in green), I did enjoy the opportunity to take in the sites of Federal Hill flooded in green, and was able to snap a few pictures along the way!\nJust as I rounded the bend into the finish at PowerPlant Live, the first drops of rain began to fall (luck of the Irish!), and so we decided to post up at Leinenkugels to celebrate and brace ourselves for the wet walk back home. While I certainly missed out on the post-race runner's high, I have to say the party at the finish line was in full force by the time I got there, and definitely made for and upbeat Sunday afternoon! If you're not a \"serious\" runner, I would highly recommend using this 5k as your first race! The crowd that comes out is really fun (kudos to the guy that ran in a kilt, playing the bagpipes the entire time!), you don't have to get up at the crack of dawn, and the after-party lasts longer than the actual race.\nNext up, one of my FAVORITE races - the Sole of the City 10k on Saturday, April 16th!\nTagged: Shamrock 5K, 5K\nNewer PostRunning Untethered: A review of the new Under Armour Speedform Gemini 2 Record\nOlder PostSpicing Up Your Spring Wardrobe",

Many punters have been looking at the review of MoPlay in order to get their bets on through out the tournament. Willian has played a vital role in the progress of the team through the tournament that included a quality assist for Neymar\u2019s opener against Mexico in the round of 16 tie. He had a fantastic season for our club and has clearly maintained that level in Russia.\nBrazil\u2019s next opponents are Belgium which has to be the most mouth-watering clash of the entire tournament thus far. Belgium on paper have possibly the top side in the competition with Thibaut Courtois in goal and several other big name premier league players such as Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku. They will be captained by our own Eden Hazard in what is the golden generation of Belgium football. If they are to land a first major title then it is likely to be with this set of players.\nBelgium reached the same quarter final stage four years ago in Brazil when defeated 1-0 by Argentina following a hard fought encounter. Eden Hazard is also having a fantastic tournament so far scoring twice as well as several vital assists including the 74th minute cross setting up Fellaini\u2019s equaliser against Japan. So how have the two sides progressed to the blockbuster clash in Russia and which side has the better attributes to go all the way?\nBrazil have been far from there elegant best but there is always an aura about them when they step foot on to the pitch. They opened up with a frustrating draw against a well drilled Switzerland side in which they had several chances to win the game but failed to do so. This was then followed with victory over Costa Rica. However they did not look like winning this game until scoring two after the scheduled 90 minutes. Brazil then won their final group game comprehensively against Serbia and as expected topped Group E. This triumph set them up to play rivals Mexico in the round of 16 in which they put in their best performance to date completely controlling the game throughout and now look a real threat to go all the way.\nBelgium on the other hand have been fairly flawless in Russia showing there stunning attacking prowess on several occasions. This started with a three nil victory over a weak Panama side which they found difficult to break down in the early stages of the game. They then played Tunisia and really stamped themselves down as key challengers for the title with a destructive display putting five past them with the game ending 5-2. This was followed with a final one nil victory over England meaning they topped the group with both of us fielding weaker sides having already guaranteed progression.\nBelgium looked to be heading home in the round of 16 clash with Japan having gone two goals down and looking to have no answers. However following a few key substitutions including the introduction of Fellaini and Chadli they were able to get themselves back in the game before a winner in the last kick of the game. This was a performance which could be taken both positively and negatively. The winner is likely to take on France with England (hopefully) in the final as the prize, as we have never had a greater opportunity to reach a major final with Sweden next before a semi-final clash against the winner of Croatia and hosts Russia.",

During his years as a college student, he began leading a weekly Bible study and saw numbers of students commit their lives to Christ.\nIn 1980, Chester graduated from Queens College in Flushing, New York, with a degree in communications. During his college years, he had studied to become a broadcast journalist. However, just prior to graduation, he heard the familiar voice of the Holy Spirit reminding him that his life was destined for something greater. Following that voice led him to Christian Life College in Stockton, California, to prepare for full time Ministry.\nIn 1984, Chester Mitchell became an Associate Pastor at Christian Life Center of Stockton. What began as a one-year internship morphed into a twelve-year ministry assignment as the Executive Associate Pastor of one of the great churches in America.\nIn 1995, Pastor Chester Mitchell and his wife Marion felt the call of God to the Northern Virginia area. The Mitchells arrived in Reston in February 1996, and Capital Community Church held its first worship service in Reston on Easter Sunday 1996.\nFrom that humble beginning and over the past sixteen years while serving as Lead Pastor, Chester Mitchell has kept alive his passion for reaching people and has invested himself in training leaders. Chester Mitchell, along with his Pastoral Team, has committed to empowering pastors and leaders through the Infusion Conference.\nThroughout Chester Mitchell's ministry, he has ministered to thousands of young people in the United States and on foreign soil. Today, there are many young men and women who are serving the Lord and in Christian service because they were influenced by him. While attending a conference in North Carolina in 2008, a young man seated in front of Chester turned, introduced himself, and said, \"As a teen I heard you speak at a youth camp. Up until that day, I had one single ambition-to become a professional baseball player. That day when you were finished speaking, I decided to become a preacher.\"\nIn 1999, Chester Mitchell led his congregation to purchase five acres of property in Ashburn, Virginia, and in 2002, the congregation moved into their beautiful sanctuary. Each Sunday, Chester Mitchell preaches two services and mentors a Spanish speaking congregation. In 2006, the church purchased twelve additional acres for future expansion.\nThirteen years after planting Capital Community Church, Chester Mitchell believes the greatest, modern day revival is still waiting to happen.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Politics List View USA: Obama\u2019s Birth Certificate - Questions Hot Up\nUSA: Obama\u2019s Birth Certificate - Questions Hot Up\nSunday, 19 July 2009 14:06\tK B Napier\nThough Obama has tried to silence those who question his eligibility to be president, people are now starting to take notice. Spurred on by Obama\u2019s sliding popularity due to his awful socialist aims, they are ignoring his lawyers\u2019 activities in putting a dark blanket over all attempts to smother enquiries.\nBut, at last, some in the media are about to ask questions. Tonight, in the USA, TV\u2019s \u2018Iconic Talk\u2019 show, hosted by Lou Dobbs, will query Obama\u2019s presidency. As I have said before, Obama got to his position by obliterating opponents by nasty and often illegal means. But his charismatic chat hid the truth and no-one bothered to check on it. Dobbs said he and his staff have been trying to unravel the truth and find it hard to understand what is going on. It is obvious that if Obama was truthful and straight-up, there would be no issues at all! If he was eligible, then an ordinary birth certificate would have sorted out the queries immediately.\nCNN are also asking similar questions tonight, especially as an Army Major has refused to go out to serve in Afghanistan. He says that as Obama is not eligible to be president, all laws and commands he has issued thus far are invalid. Also, as a usurper, Obama has no right to be his Commander-in-Chief, and all his orders are illegal. If Obama is finally shown to be ineligible, the democrats will fight tooth and nail to keep him in office. But, if he goes, no order, law or policy he initiated will stand, but will be forced out.\nApparently, other media are also taking notice. About time! One radio show presenter, Lynn Samuels has outwardly accused Obama of lying about his birth certificate. In the USA at this time, that is really something! Meanwhile, the multiple law suits carry on pressing the courts to open an investigation. One is already promised.\nThe Pentagon, under instructions from Obama, quickly revoked the Major\u2019s orders to go to Afghanistan \u2013 not something done normally for any reason, but it defused the situation so that it did not blow up in Obama\u2019s face. It did not work, however, as more media are catching the scent. Some in the USA think that because Obama was born (under a totally different name) to a US woman in Kenya, that his mother\u2019s citizenship allows him to also be a US citizen. But, according to US law, that is not the case. She had to live in the USA with her husband for at least ten continuous years for that to happen. There is also a requirement that the mother must comply with an age restriction. His mother was too young to do so, and therefore fails on both counts for Obama to be considered a citizen.\nAnd though he originally said he was born in a certain hospital in Hawaii, this year he forgot which hospital he said he was born in and sent anniversary greetings to a different one, referring to it as his birth-hospital! Be sure your sins will catch you out, Obama!\nWhat gets to me is the arrogance of Obama. Even if he finally shows himself to be legitimate, his games thus far are inexcusable. And, as I have said before, he is in a position to invent legitimacy, having countless secret service agencies at his beck and call, who are well capable of creating false papers. Of course, the problem Obama has is that he cannot possibly hide away all those who know the truth, including his brother living in Kenya who was hunted-down by Italian journalists. Once the story gains ground, Obama can be assured that many investigators will be hunting down ever last trace. Court cases currently being brought present other challenges, too.\nThe American Constitution states:\n\u201cNo person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the united States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.\u201d\nIf you go to Obama\u2019s website, you will find a certificate, but it is not a birth certificate, but a piece of paper available to any child, born in any place. Obama is refusing point-blank to show a \u2018long form\u2019 certificate which would contain the name of the doctor and hospital he was born in. He has spent about a million dollars on lawyers to hide the facts. The need for questions is obvious! Yet, during the run up to the elections last year, the right of Sen McCain was challenged, when his birth certificate was demanded! But, no-one looked at Obama\u2019s right.\nIn one case being brought, a Democrat has challenged Obama\u2019s right to be Senator, let alone president, for the same reasons. In effect, if this case was proved, Obama would be liable under fraud laws.\nBut, it is his Marxist aims that should concern the world, with its pro-gay, pro-Islam, pro-communist, anti-God stance. And this is the man people rely on to lead them!\nChristians are lax in the matter of truth, and it can cost them dearly. Though some of us fight for truth, it is the laxity of the many that cost us all! We have to endure the results of their silence. Stand up and be counted, whether it is about abortion, death penalty, sex education, or whatever. Otherwise people like Obama will increase in numbers, super-confident that no-one will challenge their right to hate and control us.\nhttp://www.westernjournalism.com/?p=2673\n\u00a9 18 July 2009",

Today, having achieved everything she set out to and more, the now 21-year-old is preparing to step across stage on December 9 and begin her career in the tech industry.\n\"I thoroughly enjoyed my time here, \" she says. \"I'm happy that the school, itself, has just really embraced me and helped mold me.\"\nWhen Allison first arrived at Clayton State, she had not yet developed her passion for computers. It wasn't until she participated in the 2013 International Hour of Code that she formed a strong interest in computer science.\n\"I really liked the problem-solving aspect,\" she says. \"I actually stayed up all night\u2014eight hours\u2014just trying to figure out one part I couldn't get.\"\nAfter the experience, Higgins was eager to pursue a bachelor\u2019s degree in computer science and Clayton State was there to help her every step of the way.\n\"I talked to Dr. Jarrett Terry, he was the advisor for STEM at that time,\" she says. \"We decided what all I needed to do and essentially prepared me to march into fall semester ready to hit the ground running.\"\nHiggins's experience at Clayton State has provided her with many opportunities to explore her career interests.\nShe has volunteered with Black Girls Code and Women Who Code Atlanta in an effort to increase the number of minorities and women in Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM).\nHiggins has also been an active member and leader of several student organizations including Women in Science Technology and Math (Wi2STEM); Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., Rho Lambda Chapter; and Partnering Academic and Community Engagement (PACE).\nMost recently, she completed a software engineering internship for Cisco Systems Inc. in San Jose, California. She made such an impression with the company that she will be starting her career as a software engineer at their headquarters in January 2018.\n\"I'll be working with the people that make the applications that Cisco engineers use in the field,\" she says.\nFor Higgins, her success not only impacts her but also the students she mentors, especially minority youth.\n\"I believe representation is very key,\" she says. \"That when our kids in our communities see people that look like them, that come from where they're from and make it. They learn that they too can make it.\"",

We envisage reaching out to more residents who do not already have substantial care needs, but would benefit from boosting their self-reliance and the ability to cope independently earlier in life, before real crisis points develop.\nWe are, in December 2015, at the early stages of starting a Befriending & Outreach project which will be managed by CCA. As part of a low level support strategy this would help to improve participation in social and community activities, increase independence and improve health and well-being for older people living in Assynt.\nWe are actively networking with existing befriending schemes in similar rural areas to learn as much as possible from their experience. Last but not least we will announce some dedicated fundraising activities for this project soon and hope that the whole community will pull together to make this happen!",

        "raw_content": "William \u201cWhip\u201d Whitaker, a commercial pilot, is an alcoholic who also consumes drugs recreationally. The night before a flight he has a drinking, drug consuming \u201corgy\u201d with Trina, a flight attendant who frequently flies with him. In the morning, after a sleepless night, he gets high on cocaine and goes to fly as usual, only it turns it out the flight is anything but ordinary.\nShortly after takeoff, they encounter turbulence and Whip takes the plane to higher altitude than recommended; the pressure is sky high. Thirty minutes before landing, the co-pilot makes a maneuver to take the plane off autopilot and chaos ensues. The plane starts nose diving. In a desperate maneuver, they invert the plane and when they turn it back, they are gliding over an isolated field, and just before the crash, a wing of the plane collides against the steeple of a church and the plane brakes in two but doesn\u2019t explode.\nThe crash kills six people, including two crew members, and someone must be held accountable. Is the surviving of the passengers a miracle or wreck-less behavior with a lucky outcome? Unbeknownst to Whip, the hospital takes samples of blood, hair and saliva and runs a toxicology test on them, and off course they find out he used cocaine and had an alcohol level in blood three times over the legal limit for driving. The pilots\u2019 union brings a brilliant lawyer on board to help Whip be cleared of possibly four counts of manslaughter that may send him to prison for life.\nOne of the first actors I wrote about in this blog was Denzel Washington. In my opinion, most of his performances are top-notch, award winning really, but honestly Flight takes the cake; this movie is a sundae with a cherry on top. Denzel\u2019s performance as an alcoholic is so nuanced that the audience gets to watch a man who has gone to the Gates of Hell and has come back by sheer willpower and bad luck with a positive spin. Denzel Washington\u2019s acting in Flight is a tour-de-force, Oscar winning material, the best acting by a male I have seen in this and in several years.\nI hope Denzel Washington isn\u2019t snubbed at the Oscars this year as he was with The Great Debaters and American Gangster; his performance in Flight is nothing short of remarkable.\nFlight is directed by Robert Zemeckis. Also co-star John Goodman, Don Cheadle, Bruce Greenwood and Kelly Reilly.",

        "raw_content": "Tags :: All Things Star Wars\nWatching Disney\u2019s Rogue One and Solo, the two stand-alone \u201cStar Wars Story\u201d movies that come without episode numbers and opening crawls, is a little like watching the legendary Dutch boy trying to plug the leaks in the dike with his fingers \u2026 as new leaks burst all around him.\nJohn Paul the Great professor defends Rogue One\nThomas P. Harmon, professor of theology and culture at John Paul the Great Catholic University, has written a thoughtful essay for Catholic World Report responding to my critique of the moral murkiness of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.\nI smiled and laughed through much of the film. Why don\u2019t I love it more? Why did The Force Awakens make almost no lasting impression on me?\nTomorrow Star Wars finally comes to Blu-ray in three editions: The Original Trilogy, The Prequel Trilogy, and The Complete Saga. Good news for Star Wars fans, right? If you\u2019re a Star Wars fan, though, you may already know\u2014or, if you didn\u2019t know, you might have guessed\u2014that George Lucas wouldn\u2019t be content to release the same old twice-retweaked versions of the films released on DVD in 2004.\nHarry Potter\u2019s Empire Strikes Back? Don\u2019t Make Me Laugh\n12 reasons why Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is no Empire Strikes Back \u2026 or even The Two Towers.\nStar Wars is pop mythology \u2014 a \"McMyth,\" as a recent critical article put it \u2014 but in our McCulture even a McMyth can be vastly preferable to no myth at all, and certainly to other, less wholesome mythologies (e.g., the Matrix trilogy). Even for those who generally prefer more traditional fare, there is still much to enjoy and appreciate in these half-baked, stunningly mounted fantasies of good and evil in a galaxy far, far away.\nIt doesn\u2019t help that this is now the second Star Wars movie in a row in which the \"wars\" alluded to in the series title are still basically in the future (one climactic skirmish aside). Lucas should never have gotten bogged down in political debate, let alone given two whole films of it.\nIt\u2019s not just that the banter and camaraderie of Luke and Han and Leia was so much more fun than the often wearying interactions of Anakin and Amidala and young Obi-Wan \u2014 though that\u2019s part of it. More importantly, the stories themselves largely lack the strong center of good versus evil that was the heart of the original trilogy.\nCrippled as he is by the decisions of the first two films, Lucas still manages to invest the final chapter of his sprawling space opera with the grandly operatic spirit of the original trilogy. It\u2019s still cornball, yes, and with all the usual weaknesses. But Episode III at last has heart.\nAn orphaned hero. An imprisoned princess. A wise old hermit. A magic sword. A fearsome dark lord. Such conventions are the stuff of myth and romance \u2014 yet, inexplicably, the first Hollywood film to give these mythic archetypes their due was not some Arthurian romance or epic costume drama.\nThematically, where the first Star Wars movie offered a simple vision of good triumphing over evil, and The Empire Strikes Back expressed the problem of evil and the necessity of sacrifice, Return of the Jedi tackles nothing less than resisting temptation, compassion for enemies, and the possibility of redemption for even the most evil.\nThe Empire Strikes Back is the backbone of the Star Wars saga. It takes the story and themes of the first film into deeper waters.\n(Review by Jimmy Akin) Like earlier pulp films, Star Wars draws on mythic and fairy-tale archetypes: a young orphan-hero; a mysterious wizard-mentor; a fearsome dark lord; a magical sword; a princess held prisoner; a gallant rescue mission. Yet on a deeper level, Star Wars is more convincing as a myth or fairy tale in its own right.\n(Review by Jimmy Akin) In the process of adding new depth to familiar subjects, the film often takes unexpected turns. One of the subtlest of these \u0097 so subtle that it tends not to be noticed by the audience \u0097 involves the mythic dimensions of Luke\u2019s transformation from backwater farmboy to mystical adept.",

        "raw_content": "Best Advantages of Dental Implants\nIf you are missing any teeth, it is only natural to want to replace them. While there are a few different replacement options, dental implants are far and away your best option. In fact, there are several advantages that dental implants have over other tooth replacement options.\nThe truth of the matter is that no other replacement option so closely mimics the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth. Unlike dentures, dental implants are placed deep into your jawbone and have no risk of moving around as you eat, drink, and speak. Dentures are also uncomfortable and hard to maintain. Dental implants are maintained in the same way you would maintain a natural tooth, through brushing and flossing. And perhaps the biggest downfall of dentures is that they can easily fall out of your mouth, causing substantial embarrassment if it happens in public. Since dental implants are placed firmly into the jawbone, there is no risk of something like that happening with dental implants.\nDental implants are also a better option when compared to a dental bridge. The placement of a dental bridge requires that the teeth surrounding the missing tooth be filed down so that they can be fit with a crown. No collateral damage to other teeth is required with dental implants. One of the main drawbacks of dental bridges is that they do not engage with your jawbone in any way. The reason this is important is because when you are missing a tooth, your body responds by starting to absorb the bone that used to hold the tooth. A dental bridge does not stop this process from playing out, but a dental implant absolutely does. Dental implants are placed deep inside the jawbone, keeping it stimulating, and thus preventing the bone loss that would otherwise occur. And while dental bridges can last around 10 years if they are well maintained, dental implants can last an entire lifetime with proper care.",

        "raw_content": "Rosewill 40-in-1 3.5\" Internal Card Reader (RCRIC001)\nPros: Inexpensive, works well, installs easily and reads a lot of different formats\nCons: Doesn't read common microSD cards without an adapter\nWhen I built this last computer for my mom, we decided to throw a memory card reader into one of the available 3.5\" external drive bays. While it's not something she uses regularly, it's nice to have on hand for for reading the memory card out of her phone or camera occasionally and it also has an additional USB 2.0 port in it as well. Also, since it was only $6 on sale it wasn't really going to affect the price of the build much, so there was little reason not to include it.\nI'd picked up a similar card reader in the past for a previous build, and it was a little short and only had one mounting screw location on each side. It sat in the case fine but it did pivot a minuscule amount up and down because there was only one screw holding it on each side. This Rosewill RCR-IC001 card reader didn't have that problem because it's longer and takes advantage of both screw mounts on each side of the device, which makes it feel more stable and secure in the case.\nThe card reader also comes with a changeable front panel. There is a black face plate installed out of the box, but there's an additional silver face plate in the package in case it matches your case better. It's easy to change with one little tab to depress on each side to make it pop right off. Hooking the device up to the motherboard is also easy, as the connection consists of a single USB 2.0 cable that you run to one of the USB headers on your motherboard. The cable is probably 18\" long so there's plenty of length to make it reach wherever you need to on your particular motherboard. I ended up using a zip tie to tie off a loop of extra slack and laid it under the drive, out of the way.\nThis device is a 40-in-1 memory card reader, but when they say \"40\" they really mean \"5 types and most of their variations\". It supports Compact Flash, Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital and SmartMedia cards. Many of the variations like miniSD, microSD and MS Pro Duo only work with the appropriate adapter that may or may not come with the memory card. The device also supports the SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) format that is prevalent in most phones and tablets these days.\nThe card reader works by having four different slots in the face, along with a USB 2.0 port and a couple of LEDs for activity (green) and power (blue). The top slot on the left is used for MS/MSPro/MS Duo/MSPro Duo, and the top middle slot is used for CFI/CFII/MD cards. The bottom left is for SD/MMC/RS MMC and the bottom middle is for SMC cards. We've only used it with SD cards (and microSD cards with the adapters) so far since that is the only type of card that any of us have laying around. SD cards must be inserted upside-down into the slot, but they worked just fine and were about the same speed as my external card reader.\nThe slots are hot swappable and you can use multiple slots at once (as well as the USB port) if you have different types of memory cards, allowing you to transfer data from one to another. Supported operating systems include Windows 7/Vista/XP/2000/ME, and it also seems to work fine in Linux Mint (which implies it will likely work fine in Ubuntu and Debian, and probably most major Linux distributions). No drivers were necessary for me to install in either operating system. The device can be operated in temperatures ranging from 0\u00baC to 50\u00baC at a humidity between 10% and 95%.\nThe package contains the card reader itself, four screws for mounting the device, the extra silver face plate, and a folded up single-page user manual. The manual contains a brief introduction and specifications in seven different languages on one side, and surprisingly clear installation diagrams and instructions on the other. This device is made in China and backed up by a 1 year limited warranty.\nOverall this was a good purchase and I recommend it. You can usually find it on sale for $6 or $7 and it's just one of those things that is nice to have on hand even if you don't use it too often.",

In these contexts, however, health equity is rarely a top-of-mind concern. Drawing on two case studies \u2013 a pesticide bylaw in Toronto and a community garden bylaw in Hamilton, Ontario \u2013 this seminar will illustrate how an environmental justice framework can be used to evaluate the extent to which healthy public policy initiatives are able to contribute to health equity. Results suggest that, while public health may be increased overall by broad, policy-based interventions, a lack of explicit attention to difference and marginalization in the development of these policies can in fact lead to greater health inequality in communities. The presentation concludes with a discussion of how greater inter-departmental and community collaboration in policy development, as well as the more routine application of an environmental justice lens, could lead to the development of policy that more effectively mitigates the ill effects of the inequitable distribution of environmental and other resources.\nBRIEF BIO: Sarah Wakefield is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography and Program in Planning at the University of Toronto; she is also the Director of the Health Studies Program in University College, and the Chair of the Social Sciences, Humanities and Education Research Ethics Board. Her research has two main themes: (1) food security policy and practice; and (2) improving neighbourhood health through participatory community development and community-based research. These areas are connected by an overarching interest in understanding how individuals and organizations work together to create just, healthy, and sustainable communities. She works closely with community organizations and health policy actors to enhance the relevance of her research.\nPublic Health Policy Rounds (Jan 24)",

        "raw_content": "Defendant takes plea deal in shooting of teen with Down syndrome\nby Rosalio Ahumada from The Modesto Bee:\nAttorneys on Wednesday unexpectedly agreed to a plea deal that will result in a 24-year prison sentence for a man, now 21, who in 2009 fired 10 shots into a minivan near Modesto. The gunfire killed a 16-year-old boy with Down syndrome.A trial started Tuesday morning for Richard Maurice Jolly, who was accused of murder in the shooting of Eliazar Hernandez.\nAfter the attorneys\u2019 opening statements, the jurors didn\u2019t hear any testimony in the trial. Instead, the attorneys told the judge Wednesday morning that they had reached an agreement that would end the trial and close the case.\nJolly pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter with an enhancement for using a gun and three counts of assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury, according to the Stanislaus County District Attorney\u2019s Office. The boy\u2019s family also was in the minivan when the gunfire struck the vehicle.\nAs part of the agreement, Jolly will be transferred to prison immediately after he is sentenced Feb. 19. In that hearing, the boy\u2019s family will have an opportunity to speak in court about the impact of his death.\nThe attorneys have negotiated possible deals numerous times since Jolly\u2019s preliminary hearing concluded in February 2012. Jolly was facing a maximum life sentence had the jury convicted him.\nProsecutors on Tuesday offered Jolly a last-minute plea deal for a 24-year prison sentence and two felony charges that would be considered strikes under the state\u2019s \u201cthree-strikes\u201d law, but he rejected the offer. That proposed deal would have made Jolly eligible for a sentence of 25 years to life in prison if he were convicted of another felony.\nThe deal made Wednesday resulted in only one charge being considered a strike.\nJolly has been in custody since he was arrested not long after the shooting occurred Oct. 20, 2009. Gunfire erupted after a violent confrontation between two groups at a home on Lombardo Avenue, which runs east from South Ninth Street a few blocks south of the Tuolumne River.\nIn her opening statement Tuesday, Deputy District Attorney Beth O\u2019Hara Owen said Alex Gomez, the boy\u2019s older brother, had gone to the Lombardo Avenue home to buy drugs, and several of his friends were inside. Rather than buying the drugs, Gomez was jumped and assaulted, and left the home vowing to return to fight, she said.\nFrank Carson, Jolly\u2019s defense attorney, gave the jury a different account: He said Gomez went to the home and punched Omar Reyes. The defense attorney said there was a grudge between Gomez and Reyes.\nBoth attorneys said Gomez gathered a group of people, including his family, and returned. Gomez was armed with a shotgun, and he used the gun to smash the home\u2019s windows and the windows of a parked vehicle, trying to provoke those inside the home to come out. Carson said Gomez\u2019s group arrived with sticks, baseball bats and guns, and that Gomez had a lust for vengeance.\nThe prosecutor said the group left, and that Gomez got into a minivan driven by his mother. She said the shots were fired as the minivan was driving away from the area.\nOwen told the jurors that neighbors heard Jolly asking, \u201cWhat I gotta do? What I gotta do?\u201d Seconds later, Jolly hung up a phone and said, \u201cI gotta kill somebody\u201d before firing the gun at the minivan, she said.\nGomez\u2019s arm was struck by gunfire, but he survived his injury.The defense attorney said his client fired the gun in self-defense and ran away because he was a 16-year-old boy who was scared. Jolly was a minor when the shooting occurred, but he was prosecuted as an adult.\nRead more here: http://www.modbee.com/2014/01/22/3148639/defendant-takes-plea-deal-in-shooting.html#storylink=cpy\nLabels: Down syndrome, murder, shooting",

        "raw_content": "Feeling angry, sad, or numb? Don't know how to cope with the thoughts and pictures in your head? Psychotherapy can help you move from victim to survivor.\nUnderstanding your symptoms: The first step in healing is to recognize the often debilitating impact of the traumatic event on feelings, thoughts, relationships, behaviors, and attitudes. Many people are not aware that chronic traumas (such as on-going childhood sexual or physical abuse, neglect or domestic violence) can present differently from single event traumas (such as assault, natural disaster, or motor vehicle crashes) or grief. Symptoms can include nightmares and flashbacks, fearfulness, sleep problems, shame, angry outburst, and sweating and muscle tension. You may feel vulnerable, unsafe and out-of-control. Therapy will provide you with psychoeducaton to help you understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.\nTreatment: Receiving treatment that is based upon where you are in your personal recovery is imperative. Trauma-focused treatment, for example, can be more harmful than beneficial if implemented too soon. Rather than prematurely delving into details of the trauma, it will likely be necessary to learn coping skills to deal with the symptoms caused by the traumatic event. Such skills can include mood and anxiety management skills, setting limits and boundaries, and dealing with feelings of anger. Once these coping skills are established, then more trauma-focused treatment can ensue, if necessary.\nMoving Forward: It\u2019s important to transition from being a victim to a survivor. You can grow despite your experience with trauma. Therapy can help you explore aspects of living, post-trauma, including intimacy, sexuality, meaning and purpose, spirituality and, even, forgiveness.",

        "raw_content": "Information About Current Source\nA current source is a piece of equipment that is used to produce or receive an electric current. It is related to the voltage source, which is the dual of the current source. Often, a current source will be used to power various machines, which can derive energy from the electric current produced. There is a wide range current sources available, such as resistor sources, active sources, radio frequency (RF) current sources, and direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) sources. Each type uses a different mechanism to generate and maintain an electric current. Resistor sources are considered to be the simplest forms of current source. They involve a circuit that contains a resistor in series with a source of voltage. The current generated from this system is equivalent to the amplitude of the voltage, divided by the resistance of the resistor. A resistor current source is generally not considered effective on its own because of the large amount of power lost in the resister, but many types of current source use elements of this setup. For example, active current sources often substitute a different element for the resistor. These use elements of transistors or vacuum tubes to replace the resistor because they can act as current sources when supplied with energy. By substituting these parts in for the resistor, the system will not lose the same amount of power. DC and AC sources are frequently used in many different processes requiring electrical energy. Direct current is simply the flow of an electric current in one direction, while alternating current involves an alternating direction of current flow. AC can be converted to DC with the use of a rectifier, a device that permits only one direction of current flow. Equipment such as batteries, solar cells, and low-voltage devices frequently feature the use of a DC source, while certain motors and types of lighting rely on an AC source. RF current source sends electrical signals at the frequency of radio waves. They differ from DC and AC sources in that they operate at a lower frequency and a higher voltage. Additionally, RF current generally runs along the surface of an electric conductor rather than completely within it, and it has the capacity to travel through insulating elements. It also has a greater capacity to ionize gas and gas plasma materials making it optimal for certain processes, such as electric arc welding and thin film sputtering.",

        "raw_content": "CHINA IN FOCUS: INTERVIEW WITH DR. SUSAN SHIRK\nSource: China in Focus\nCHINA FOCUS: What was the original impetus to launch the 21st Century China program?DR. SUSAN SHIRK: First of all, congratulations on the launch of China Focus! I look forward to reading it.\nFor years, whenever China experts visited the UCSD campus, they expressed surprise about what a strong group of scholars we had here. \u201cUCSD China studies is a well-kept secret,\u201d they said. I don\u2019t want to be modest about it. We do have an exceptional group here scattered across the campus, in history, sociology, literature, art, music, politics and economics.\nIR/PS, in particular, has a concentration of distinguished scholars on contemporary China. A couple years ago, Dean Peter Cowhey, Barry Naughton, Tai Ming Cheung, Junjie Zhang and I started talking about how we might build a real program that would be more visible and active. I had admired the way University of Southern California had built its US-China Institute into a lively hub of activity\u2014talks, panels, conferences\u2014for students and the community, which was largely due to a dynamic full-time director. With some seed money from IR/PS and generous donations from the community, we were able to recruit Dr. Lei Guang, a political scientist at SDSU, to serve as the founding director. From there our new 21st Century China program took off.\nSince establishing 21CC in 2011, we have been very fortunate to hire several superb faculty members who do research on China. So, now we are proud to say that we have a stronger China team than any other university. This is especially great news to all current and prospective students who want to study China at UCSD!\nCHINA FOCUS: What are the primary goals and mission of the 21st Century China Program?(Photo credit: IR/PS)\nDR. SUSAN SHIRK: We want to build the leading university-based policy think tank on contemporary China. The mission of 21CC is to produce original research that addresses critical policy issues related to China\u2019s development and U.S.-China relations, and to carry out policy dialogue between Chinese and American experts. We will achieve this through the strength of our own research, as well as by partnering with researchers from non-academic fields (e.g. NGOs, think tanks and private-sector research) in the U.S. and China.\nBy collaborating our research with Chinese scholars we also aim to strengthen China\u2019s social science capacity and improve mutual understanding between the two societies. I am particularly gratified thatFudan University chose to establish the very first overseas study center--Fudan-UC Center\u2014by any Chinese university at IR/PS, and to focus it on the study not of America, but of China! What a great compliment to the quality of our research.\nEducating the next generation of experts on China and U.S.-China relations is also an important component of the mission. IR/PS students learn as members of our research teams, through interaction with our exciting visitors from China and elsewhere, and by publishing their own analyses on our new 21CC blog.\nFinally, community engagement is vital to our mission. 21CC serves as an anchor for the vibrant China studies community at UCSD. We seek to involve educators, entrepreneurs, business and civic leaders, youth groups, technological innovation experts, and internationally-minded citizens in and around San Diego within the activities of 21CC.\nCHINA FOCUS: What plans or future projects does the program hope to achieve?\nDR. SUSAN SHIRK: There are many projects in 21CC\u2019s future, but here are some of the few exciting plans that we have lined up:\n- Through a grant from the Carnegie Corporation recently awarded to 21CC, we will be bringing Chinese social scientists to IR/PS to work with our faculty and students to design and work on collaborative research projects\n- Together with UCSD faculty experts on climate change, we are developing proposals for cooperation between the state of California and Chinese provinces, which Governor Brown could then introduce to provincial leaders in China.\n- We have convened several successful international conferences on topics such as renminbiinternationalization, renewable energy, China\u2019s outbound direct investment, etc. We are planning more research workshops with Chinese social scientists on topics that are of interest to our faculty and students.\n- We are also working with our own Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies and Fudan-UC Center to plan a symposium on the three-way economic, trade and investment relationship between U.S., China and Mexico.\n- In cooperation with a Los Angeles-based program called Academic Exchange, we will hold a March 2014 dialogue at the Rabin Center in Tel Aviv between Chinese, U.S. and Israeli international relations scholars on transitions in the Middle East.\nThe list goes on. Of course, we are eager to harness the new knowledge generated at conferences and workshops and bring it to the public. I\u2019m sure the blog will help us to reach a wider audience, but everyone can check our website periodically for updates on our programmatic activities: china.ucsd.edu\nMaeve Whelan-Wuest is the Co-Founder and External Relations Director of China Focus.

        "raw_content": "\ufeffA History of Rural Healthcare in the PRC\ufeff\nBy: David Shou\nSource: Global Post\n\"By 2013, China had achieved an astonishing 99% rural healthcare coverage.\"\n\"If the problem of cost inflation and efficiency are not addressed, then much of the new money injected into the NCMS will be funneled into incomes for providers.\"\nLast month, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that in the first quarter of 2014 the number of uninsured Americans fell from 44.8 million to 41 million people, or approximately 13.1% of the population. Supporters of the Affordable Care Act have lauded these figures as evidence that current legislation has extended coverage to millions of Americans who were previously uninsured.\nOver the past decade, China has also been experimenting with healthcare reform aimed at extending coverage, especially for its most vulnerable rural populations. Both countries have reformed their health systems by employing similar mechanisms: extending insurance to lower out-of-pocket expenses, emphasizing primary care and prevention, and reforming payment and delivery systems. In 2013, Xinhua News Agency, the state press, reported that China had achieved an astonishing 99% rural healthcare coverage under the New Cooperative Medical Scheme.\nIn 1949, China was a predominantly rural nation that had an undeveloped healthcare delivery system. Few medical professionals practiced Western medicine, and the vast majority of peasants in the countryside only had access to traditional Chinese medicine. In response to the population\u2019s medical needs, the Chinese government established a new system of public insurance to provide health care services.\nRural individuals were covered by the Commune-based Cooperative Medical Scheme (CMS), a three-tiered healthcare system. The first tier consisted of barefoot doctors who were trained in basic hygiene and traditional Chinese medicine. The second tier included township health centers with small outpatient clinics staffed by hired medical professionals. County hospitals formed the third tier and were reserved for the most seriously ill patients. Although the standards of care were minimal, an emphasis on improved hygiene and access to basic medication drastically improved health outcomes. Life expectancy increased from 36 in 1949 to 65.5 in 1980.\nThe CMS was funded by commune incomes and covered all individuals living inside the commune. Under the communal system, residents transferred all ownership in exchange for social services, including schools, nurseries, and health care. The CMS concentrated its risk pooling in village communes that averaged a population of 10,000 to 20,000 families. Communes paid the salaries of village health workers and patients paid for their own drugs and some small treatment costs. By the 1970s, approximately 90% of the rural population was covered by the CMS.\nIn the 1980s, market reforms led to decollectivization of agriculture and resulted in a decreased desire by rural populations to support the collective welfare system. In addition, government involvement in public health service decreased, leaving the CMS with insufficient funding. By the late 1980s, only 5% of villages still had access to the scheme. As government subsidies decreased, physicians and hospitals developed other revenue-generating mechanisms to cover their costs. Hospitals recommended unnecessary but expensive diagnostic tests and medications to keep departments financially solvent. Many barefoot doctors entered private practice, operating on a fee-for-service basis. Out-of-pocket spending as a share of total health spending increased from 20% in 1978 to almost 60% in 2001. Rising costs compounded with the dissolution of the CMS made medical care beyond the reach of most rural populations.\nAs the failings of the healthcare system became more apparent, the central government recognized the need to overhaul the CMS. In 2003, it announced direct budgetary support for the New Cooperative Medical Scheme (NCMS) with matching contributions from local governments and individual households. The NCMS focuses on reducing the financial risks of catastrophic illness and improving access to healthcare for rural populations. It is a voluntary health insurance program with household-based enrollment. Two thirds of its funding originates from central and local governments, while the remaining third comes from participant contributions. Risk pooling is now at the county level instead of the commune level and typically covers between 200,000 and 300,000 individuals. While the CMS focused on basic preventive interventions, the NCMS focuses on reducing the cost of inpatient care.\nAlthough rural coverage has increased under the NCMS, several problems persist. The program remains severely underfunded despite renewed commitments by the central government and rising minimum individual contributions. Although all counties are required to cover inpatient costs, many poorer counties do not have the revenue to cover outpatient costs. The scheme continues dualistic public policies that favor urban over rural areas. Reimbursement rates remain low, and the procedure for being reimbursed is both complicated and time consuming. Co-payments remain high because of low ceilings and high deductibles. Despite increased medical insurance coverage in rural areas, healthcare utilization for the poorest 10% of China\u2019s rural population has not increased, as out-of-pocket expenses remain prohibitively high.\nXinhua\u2019s reported 99% rural health insurance coverage rate indicates that China has achieved its stated goal of providing wider coverage. However, limited financing and high co-payments mean that coverage will need to be deepened in order to provide affordable healthcare for its 1.3 billion citizens. These challenges extend beyond offering coverage to the uninsured, but also to reducing waste and inefficiencies in health care delivery. Vested interests within the medical sector continue to support policies that maximize profits. If the problems of cost inflation and inefficiency are not addressed, then much of the new money injected into the NCMS will be funneled into incomes for providers.\nChina\u2019s use of outside experts and solicitation of public comment reflects its willingness to incorporate measures of transparency and international expertise into its reform process. China is implementing healthcare reform during a period of great economic growth and is willing to commit significant government funding to its reforms, providing the necessary flexibility to experiment with innovative solutions to tackle its multi-tiered health problem.\n\"Market reforms led to decollectivization and resulted in a decreased desire by rural populations to support the collective welfare system.\"\n\"Risk pooling is now at the county level instead of the commune level.\"\nDavid is a Duke graduate and a current NIH Academy Fellow at the National Institutes of Health.",

        "raw_content": "CSC & Towers Watson Study Reveals U.S. Life Insurers Plan to Improve Enterprise Risk Management Programs\nCSC\u2019s Financial Services Group\nStudy Shows Enhanced Risk-Based Decision Making Will Help Drive More Sophisticated Modeling, Better Reporting and Integrated Technology to Support ERM Activities\nFALLS CHURCH, Va., and NEW YORK, March 23, 2010 -- As the financial climate improves, U.S. life insurers say they will invest to enhance their enterprise risk management (ERM) function in 2010 and beyond, according to a joint study by CSC (NYSE: CSC) and Towers Watson (NYSE, NASDAQ: TW), and in partnership with the American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI). The research shows that the ERM function is currently still under development, as most life insurance companies operate under the constraints of limited technology and reporting capabilities that obstruct the accessibility of risk information. Going forward, insurers are expected to reinforce their risk strategy via more robust modeling practices, better alignment of risk metrics with decision making and integrated technology that fosters enterprise visibility.\nThe study, \u201cIs Your Organization at Risk? A Different Look at Enterprise Risk Management,\u201d examines ways the life insurance industry intends to improve its ERM practices in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Based on focus groups and surveys of 40 U.S. life insurers, ranging in size from less than $100 million in revenues to more than $10 billion in revenues, the study allows insurers to compare their operations to their industry peers. The study concludes with leading practices insurers can implement in order to close ERM gaps that could put an organization at risk.\nWhile half (53 percent) of the respondents rated their ERM performance as satisfactory or better over the last 12 months, the compelling trend is that these satisfied respondents stressed the importance of improving the ERM function going forward.\n\u201cThe research findings highlight the need for strong governance with a holistic view and independent level of authority,\u201d said Linda Chase-Jenkins, Towers Watson\u2019s global co-leader of Enterprise Risk Management. \u201cThe transformation of the ERM function requires a culture shift in which risk management values are fully embedded in the decision process.\u201d\nRespondents indicated a significant increase in technology investment, with some insurers planning ERM IT investment increases of 75 percent or more in 2010.\n\u201cAs the market recovers, insurers are intending to \u2018up their game\u2019 through investments in better technology and improved risk management practices throughout their enterprise,\u201d said Bob McDonald, principal consultant, CSC\u2019s Life Insurance and Annuity Division. \u201cA greater IT investment alone will not be the sole contributor to a winning ERM program; it must be accompanied by a clearly articulated risk appetite, a well-defined risk organization and clear accountability for risk.\u201d\nTo access a copy of \u201cIs Your Organization at Risk?

(IDC) has been getting good reviews from property experts, not just because of its eco-friendly features, but also due to its prime location.\n\u201cOur property is located in the area where major developments are ongoing or headed, such as government offices, BPOs, regional bank offices, hospitals, Xavier University world-class sports complex, and the construction of a major road leading to Bukidnon and another to Laguindingan from the uptown area of Cagayan de Oro,\u201dIDC President Jose \"Jojo\" D. Leviste III said.\nLocated at the Pueblo de Oro Business Park, Upper Carmen, Cagayan de Oro (near SM City Cagayan de Oro), Phase 1 of the project entails an investment of about P653 million for two towers. When fully completed, Primavera City is planned to consist of seven green buildings including a high-rise tower.\nThe two integrated multifunctional buildings (commercial, office, residential) with 11 floors each of Primavera City Phase 1--set to be launched in the second quarter of the year--are designed to have 337 units, 57 of them commercial units; 231 are studio-type; 22 are one-bedroom units, and 27 are two-bedroom units and around 100 parking slots in the basement. Their average sizes are 50 to 60 square meters (sqm) for commercial units, 28 sqm for studio-type units, 47 sqm for the single-bedroom units, and 70 sqm for the two-bedroom units.\n\u201cCDO is the place to be right now down South. It ranked as the 2nd in the next wave cities of the Philippines according to the Department of Science and Technology-Information and Communications Technology Office (DOST-ICTO), 3rd in the select group of 10 in the Fastest Growing Cities in the Visayas and Mindanao area, and the 2nd on the list of 10 Most Livable Cities in Mindanao,\u201d Nati emphasized. ###\nLabels: Guest Who, Italpinas, Primavera City\nGuest Who|Italpinas|Primavera City|",

        "raw_content": "I was involved in an online discussion about women and chess. The name \"Lisa Lane\" surfaced in reference to the infamous remark made by a young Bobby Fischer when he learned that she called him \"probably the greatest chess player alive\" :\n\"That statement is accurate, but Lisa Lane really wouldn't be in a position to know. They're all weak, all women. They're stupid compared to men. They shouldn't play chess, you know. They're like beginners. They lose every single game against a man. There isn't a woman player in the world I can't give knight-odds to and still beat.\"\nI knew Lisa Lane was a former US Women's Chess Champion, and I knew of Fischer's remark since I had made a short web page on Fischer a while back. But what I knew was very limited so I tried to find something out more.\nA picture from Sam Sloan's site.\n(Notice 14 yr.old Sloan in the background)\nAs I've mentioned in a previous posting, there seems to be very little respect for the US Women's Chess Championship as reflected in the lack of information available. All my searching on the web turned up very little, but what little I found, I'll put there.\nLisa Lane was 21 when she won the title for the first time in 1959. This means she was probably born around 1938 in the midst of the depression. She remained the champion seemingly unopposed until 1962 when Gisela Kahn Gresser* took the title. She would win the title once more as co-champion with Gresser in 1966.\nWhile she owned the title, it seems she was popular with the media.\nShe made the cover of Sports Illustrated\n- August 7, 1961 Volume 15, Issue 6.\nShe appeared as a guest on a popular T.V. show called \"What's My Line.\"\nDuring the Hastings Christmas Congress, what year I can't say, she quit in the middle and went home. The media reported her explaining that she was homesick and in love.\nShe was in love with Neil Hickey.\nNeil Hickey is editor-at-large of The Columbia Journalism Review. The former naval officer was TV Guide's New York Bureau Chief for 25 years. A graduate of Loyola, Hickey he won the Everett C. Parker Award for Lifetime Achievement for his writings on telecommunications in 1995.\nBobby Fischer supposedly refused to play in a tournament because a woman was playing. That woman was Lisa Lane.\nBobby Fischer collaborated in writing his well-known Chessworld article in which he named whom he considered the 10 greast players of all time. His collaborator was Neil Hickey.\nBesides Lisa Lane, Bobby Fischer is the only other chess player to grace the cover of Sport's Illustrated - though she beat him by 11 years.\nBobby Fischer and Lisa Lane where both taught/coached by US Chess Hall of Famer, John (Jack) W. Collins (who died December 2, 2001).\nFischer and Lane seem somehow linked and star-crossed.\nI couldn't confirm it, but one source claimed she had opened a a chess club in New York City in 1964 called the Queen Pawn. (Maybe it should be the Queen's Pawn, which would make more sense to me)\nSince 1971 she's owned a natural food business in Putnam County, NY located at 69 Gleneida Ave., Carmel, called Amber Waves of Grain. According to the internet, it's still in operation.\n\"I hate anyone who beats me.\"\nA quote I've seen at several places attributed to Lisa Lane\nGisela Kahn Gresser was the first woman in the United States to gain a master title. She was also the first American woman to be inducted into the U.S. Chess Hall of Fame. She was US Women's Chess Champion 1944, co-champion with Mona M. Karff in 1948, 1954, co-champion with Nancy Roos in 1955, co-champion with Sonja Graf in 1957, 1962, 1965, co-champion with Lisa Lane in 1966, 1967 and 1969 (at age 63).\nI made this .pgn file of what Lisa Lane games I could find.",

However, this project is not an effort focused on educating people about manners. This is because the quality of manners in Tokyo is held in high regard by the rest of the world.\nAccording to the results of a survey by TGMP on \u201cimages of Tokyo,\u201d almost 70% (64.9%) of foreigners answered that \u201cPeople have good manners.\u201d However, the corresponding figure among Tokyo residents was only less than 30% (24.6%), which indicates a large perception gap between foreigners and the residents of Tokyo. We see this as a sign that Tokyo residents have an extremely low opinion of themselves.\nTGMP is featuring \u201cTOKYO GOOD,\u201d a concept that seeks to display what is good about Tokyo so that each and every resident of Tokyo takes pride in their good manners and visitors to Tokyo from all over the world can enjoy good manners as a form of culture. Under the banner of this concept, TGMP is taking action in various ways.\nTOKYO GOOD MUSEUM is an action that embodies this concept. This activity makes use of Tokyo as an art museum without form, visualizing the good manners found in people, objects, and actions as pieces for display that will be disseminated to the public.\nThe editorial staff of the TOKYO GOOD MUSEUM will engage in two initiatives to demonstrate to the world its work via the framework of the museum. One will be \u201cmanner curation,\u201d which culls the content of TOKYO GOOD that either already exists in Tokyo or can be spotlighted through recommendations and posts from Tokyo residents and inbound tourists. The other is \u201cmanner creation\u201d that seeks to generate ideas for solving problems and envision what the concept of good manners can be.\nPlease expect great things from the Tokyo Good Manners Project as we seek to reform the attitudes of Tokyo residents toward manners and disseminate to the world TOKYO GOOD as a form of culture.",

Over the last 10 years, 10 new institutions have been opened and all others have been reconstructed;\n\u2013 The drafting of legal and sub-legal acts in accordance with European standards;\n\u2013 An application of programs for the rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders\n\u2013 Recruitment and staff training.\nWithin the organic structure of prison staff, there are social workers, psychologists, education specialists who conduct individual assessment of the offenders and draft the punishment plan.\nThe social service staff has benefited from some important training on risk assessment, integrated sentence plan, mental health problem management, vulnerable groups support, drafting intervention plans, and so on.\nRehabilitation plans are based on the education of offenders, which is carried out in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, based on a joint agreement. All juvenile offenders are required to complete compulsory education. In the Juvenile Institute Kavaja, you can find both compulsory education and high secondary education.\nEducation is also offered to adult convicts in Prison and Detention Institutions. In this year 98 offenders completed 9 years of education.\nThe General Directorate of Prisons, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, will review curricula, in accordance with age and psycho-social features.\nEmployment is a very important activity in the rehabilitation of prisoners. Currently there are about 654 convicts involved in internal services such as hygiene, garden, library, etc. The General Directorate is finalizing several employment projects for tailoring, evening, waste recycling.\nIn many institutions, workshops, professional training, electrical, plumbing, carpentry etc. have been set up.\nIn all prisons there are libraries where prisoners have the opportunity to read and discuss the books.\nMany other projects are implemented in the prison system, such as education through art, sports, painting, music, theatre, for juvenile women and adult prisoners.\nby Femi Sufaj, Head of Training Staff in General Directory of Prison",

        "raw_content": "Glossary Of Islamic Term\nAbraham : one of the first Prophets of Allah, who was willing to sacrifice his son, Ishmael, when Allah asked him to. This event is celebrated by the Eid al-Adha or Festival of Sacrifice.\nadhan : the call to prayer that can be heard five times a day as the mu'hadhin calls the faithful. It is whispered into the ears of newborn babies, so that holy words are the first sounds that they hear.\nal-darurat tubih al-mahzurat : a legal maxim that translates as 'necessities overrule prohibitions' and that allows a Muslim in extreme circumstances to do something that would normally be haram to save his own or another's life. A good example would be a starving Muslim being excused for eating pork, if nothing else were available and the meal saved his life. This principle is important in modern medicine.\nAllah : the name of God. Allah is the One and Only, Unique and without end.\naqiqah : the ceremony of shaving a baby's head and giving it a formal name. This ritual is a celebration of the birth of the child, and the giving of a name that welcomes it into the Muslim community. It usually takes place within seven days of the birth.\neid : a celebratory festival. There are two major eid in the Muslim calendar: one to celebrate the end of Ramadan, and the other to celebrate the end of the hajj.\nEid al-Adha : the Festival of Sacrifice held on the last day of the hajj, and celebrating the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son Ishmael when Allah asked him to.\nEid al-Fitr : the Festival of Breaking the Fast, held on the last day of the month of Ramadan, and celebrating unity in the Muslim community.\nfive pillars of Islam : the five guiding principles of life as a Muslim; five duties that must be adhered to. They are the profession of faith (shahadah), prayer (salat/salaat), charity or almsgiving (zakat), fasting (sawm) and a pilgrimage to Makkah (hajj).\nghusl : the greater washing; a full-body cleansing ritual before worship. This is generally necessary after childbirth, sexual intercourse and when it is felt that special penance is needed to become (spiritually) clean again.\nHadith : Muhammad's followers and household kept a careful account of his life, deeds, sayings and examples, and these have been gathered together as the Hadith. Muslims try to live by the rules of the Qur'an, but they also take great advice and comfort from the examples in the Hadith; after all, if an ordinary man such as Muhammad can live well and in a holy manner, so can they. The Hadith also forms part of the literature informing shari'ah.\nhaji/hajji and hajiah/hajja : male and female titles for those who have completed a pilgrimage to Makkah (the hajj) and so have upheld one of the five pillars of Islam.\nhajj : the fifth pillar of Islam. The hajj is a pilgrimage that all Muslims must make if they are able to, so that they can visit Makkah (the birthplace of Muhammad, and now called Mecca) and pray in the mosque there.\nhalal : anything that is allowed or lawful according to the Qur'an. It is often used in the context of food \u2013 especially meat \u2013 to indicate that the food has been prepared in accordance with Muslim principles and techniques.\nharam : anything that is unlawful or forbidden according to the Qur'an.\nhayd : the term used for menstrual blood, and to describe the period of uncleanliness around the menstrual bleed (the minimum time of hayd is three days, the maximum is ten days). After this period of hayd, a ghusl is required to regain the state of cleanliness.\nhijab : the term used to describe the full dress code for women to keep them from unwelcome attentions and to preserve their modesty. It includes rules for covering the feet, what jewellery can be worn and even the limits of modern make-up that are permitted. In the UK, it is commonly used to describe only the headscarf that is worn by Muslim women to cover their hair at all times. The traditional hijab headscarf is a long, wide scarf that is wrapped around the head and throat, and can be used to cover the face when necessary for modesty.\nHussain : the grandson of Muhammad and one of the first imams. He was killed in battle, and his death is especially mourned by the Shi'a Muslim community during the New Year festival.\nihram : the state of grace and holiness that is achieved by taking part in the hajj.\nimam : the spiritual leader of a Muslim community. He leads the congregation in prayer and acts as an advisor and advocate for and to the community. He is not a priest and has authority by knowing the Qur'an and other sacred texts well.\nIshmael : the son of Abraham, the first Prophet of Islam. Ishmael was nearly sacrificed by his father when Allah told him to do so. At the last minute, Ishmael was spared.\nIslam : this can be translated literally as 'peace through willing submission to Allah'. The word 'salaam', which means peace, and 'Islam' share a common root in Arabic, and 'islam' (no capital letter), is a term that is used to indicate the quality of surrender to the Divine will. Islam is a religion based on faith, obedience, teachings and daily practice of the principles contained in the Qur'an.\nistihadah : any irregular (vaginal) bleeding experienced by a woman that does not take place during her period of hayd (menstrual bleeding). This includes spotting while on the Pill or disruption to her normal menstrual cycle with the approach of menopause, for example.\nkhitan : the ritual circumcision of every Muslim male child.\nKoran : the Anglicised spelling of Qur'an.\nMakkah : the Arabic name for the modern city of Mecca, where the prophet Muhammad was born. It is the spiritual home of Islam and contains the most sacred of mosques as well as the Ka'ba or Black Stone. Muslims position themselves to face Makkah whenever they pray, so that their prayers may go straight there and be heard.\nminaret : the tower in the mosque that the adhan is called from by the mu'hadhin.\nmosque : the Muslim place of worship. It is usually built as a square building with a central courtyard and a domed minaret (tower). The minaret is where the adhan (call to prayer) is chanted from. There are no images of living creatures or people in a mosque, but one wall will be specially decorated with intricate patterns; this wall faces Makkah and indicates the direction to face while praying. The floor is usually carpeted and everyone will sit on the floor. Women and men pray in separate areas. The mosque is not only the centre for individual contemplative prayer and Friday's communal prayer, but also a community centre, school and meeting place for the Islamic community.\nmufti : an interpreter or implementer of shari'ah or Islamic law (essentially an Islamic lawyer). The Council of Muftis gathers together to debate changes to Islamic laws in the face of modern advances, such as organ donation.\nmu'hadhin : the man who calls the faithful to prayer five times a day. He climbs into the minaret of the mosque at the appropriate time and begins to chant and sing the adhan (call to prayer).\nMuhammad : Muhammad was an ordinary man, who at the age of 40 began to receive instruction from Allah via His angel Jibreel (Gabriel). During the next 20 and more years, he received and wrote down the words of the Qur'an, Allah's final revelation to mankind. Muhammad was just one of the prophets used by Allah to instruct humans, but he was the last and the 'seal of the prophets', completing the line of prophecy and divine communication. Muslims do not worship Muhammad, but they are grateful and full of awe for his work in bringing them the final word of Allah. His life and sayings have been collected and also form holy books (the Sunna and the Hadith) that are part of the basis for Islamic law.\nMuslim : one who has submitted to the will of Allah and follows His word (accepts Islam).\nnifas : the bleeding experienced by women during and after childbirth.\nProphet : Islam recognises many prophets, including Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus. The last Prophet was Muhammad, who received the final communication of law \u2013 the Qur'an \u2013 from Allah.\nQur'an : the divine word of Allah as recited to Muhammad during a period of more than 20 years. It contains 114 surahs (chapters), which deal with every aspect of life. It is commonly Anglicised to Koran.\nRamadan : the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. During this month, Muslims celebrate the sending of the Qur'an to Muhammad. This is the most holy time of the year for Muslims, and they observe Ramadan by fasting between sunrise and sunset. At the end of the month, one of the biggest celebrations of the Muslim year (Eid al-Fitr) is held.\nsalat (salaat) : the discipline of daily prayers. Muslims pray five times a day, and must perform a ritual wash (wudu) before each one. There are specific movements and passages to recite, which help the faithful to attain a holier mindset. This is the second of the five pillars of Islam.\nsalat ul-Fajr : the first prayer of the day, taking place before dawn.\nsalat ul-Jum'ah : Although most Muslims pray on their own wherever they happen to be at the time, there is an opportunity on Fridays to come together as a community to pray together. Traditionally, the midday prayer on Friday is said at the mosque, where the imam or a guest will read passages from the Qur'an and may give a lesson \u2013 much as Muhammad may have done thousands of years ago. The congregation is arranged in lines (women and men have separate areas for prayer), and the synchronisation of movement and chanting by hundreds of Muslims is a powerful sight. Although attendance is obligatory for men (although not for women), a man who is sick is excused.\nsawm : the discipline of ritual fasting, usually during Ramadan. Between sunrise and sunset, the faithful cannot consume any food or liquid and cannot engage in sexual relations. This helps to concentrate the mind on the message of Allah, and to remind all Muslims that they are equal in His sight. This is the fourth pillar of Islam.\nshahadah : the profession of faith, and first pillar of Islam. A Muslim will use this in his prayers. A rough translation is 'There is no God but Allah; Muhammad is the messenger of Allah'.\nShi'a : approximately 10% of Muslims across the world would call themselves Shi'ite Muslims; that is, they follow the Shi'a tradition. The Muslim community split in a dispute occurring after the death of the Prophet Muhammad, when there was disagreement about Muhammad's successor. There is a slight difference in the way the two groups \u2013 Shi'a and Sunni \u2013 conduct their lives, and they have some festivals and events exclusive to each group, but otherwise they both follow the Qur'an.\nshari'ah : Islamic law based on the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and administered by a mufti (Islamic lawyer). It is also sometimes used as a general term to refer to all of the commandments contained within the Qur'an, dealing with every aspect of human life.\nSunnah/Sunna : another source of Islamic law, which is a collection of the sayings of Muhammad, examples of his behaviour, things he approved of and things he condemned during his lifetime. The Sunnah is not a direct revelation by Allah as is the Qur'an, but as Muhammad was divinely inspired by Allah, his words and examples have the weight of divine authority. It also contains the Hadith, which is a collection of anecdotes collected together from his friends and family. Together the Hadith, Sunna and Qur'an form the basis of all shari'ah (Islamic law).\nSunni : most Muslims would call themselves Sunni Muslims, as opposed to Shi'ite Muslims. The Muslim nation split shortly after the death of the Prophet, when a successor could not be agreed on. However, apart from a few differences in holidays and salat times, both groups follow Islam, the Qur'an and Allah in much the same way.\nsurah : a chapter of the Qur'an. Each surah may comprise several verses and is generally named after something memorable within the surah (for example, the first surah of the Qur'an is called 'The Opener').\ntayammum : a ritual washing that can be carried out by those too weak or bed-bound for a normal wudu. Symbolic hand gestures and the use of a stone or clean dust instead of water mean that tayammum can be performed by almost anyone. The patient touches the stone or dust with both hands and then moves the hands over the face, hands and forearms. Tayammum can also be used in dire circumstances when fresh, clean water is not available.\nwudu : the general washing before prayer. Wudu consists of ritualised ablutions that include washing the hands, neck, face, feet and legs and rinsing the mouth, eyes and nose. Wudu must also be carried out after excretion, passing wind, urination or touching the genitals.\nzakat : charity or almsgiving. Muslims have a duty to look after each other in the name of Allah, and so a proportion of their income has to be given away to support the poor (generally at least 2.5 per cent of their yearly income). This is the third of the five pillars of Islam.",

        "raw_content": "White man\u2019s law\nEliza Bergin\nThe Legal Labyrinth is a promised land of alliteration. It provides an account of the author\u2019s experiences writing another book, Our Man K.\nThe \u2018Kisch\u2019 case, about a Czech who jumped ship in Melbourne, is examined in part 1. Kisch\u2019s story is the focus of Our Man K. A depressing symmetry is evident between the arbitrary decision-making in the migration jurisdiction of 1934 and now. Kisch was a Czech journalist, born in Prague on 29 April 1885, who arrived in Australia in November 1934. As a requirement for his visa, Kisch sat a dictation test in a European language. By decision of a departmental officer under the then Immigration Act 1901 (Commonwealth), he was required to sit a dictation test in Scottish Gaelic. He took his case through the court system and the High Court ultimately held that Scottish Gaelic was not a European language and the test was invalid. Hasluck draws out well the contemporary themes of arbitrary and unjust decision-making in the application of migration law.\nPart Two is a day-to-day account of the author\u2019s experiences travelling in Vietnam for about one month. I read this at about the same time I attended a play called Vietnam: a psychic guide. The insightful playwright and actor Chi Vu noted:\nSome travellers go to exotic places to pretend that people do not suffer deeply from their poverty and that they do not at times cheat and lie to try to escape it. Some people travel to let go of understanding what\u2019s happening around them, to be as nude and deluded as children. It is easy to watch them walk with an air of stupidity about them, smiling at everything. There are those who travel to exotic places to feel sorry for the natives I wonder whether there is a sense of those travellers in Hasluck? For example:\nWe are approached, then pursued, by a small posse of grubby, half-naked street urchins. These are not just persistent hawkers of the kind we have become accustomed to in Hanoi, street kids on the make, but good-humoured; here we are confronted with the outstretched hands and the feral looks of the outcast.\nDoes he lean towards the first category? Part Two is the weakest part of the book, reading largely like a series of postcards written to a person he doesn\u2019t know very well. It lacks depth, insight and reflection. That said, he uses the words \u2018I feel like a character in a novel\u2019 in the introductory words to Part Two.\nPerhaps his observations are intended to read as those of a character in a book who has no capacity for reflection?\nIn Part Three, Hasluck enters the realm of fiction.

        "raw_content": "Australia's Noah's Ark economy\nIf the Coalition can genuinely make a difference to Australia's intensely oligopolistic industry structures \u2014 which is among the worst in the developed world \u2014 there will be a lot of votes in it. Large numbers of small business people, especially those unfortunate enough to supply the big supermarkets, know only too well how far they are from anything resembling a level playing field. That they do not make this better known is only because they would lose their livelihoods entirely if they spoke out.\nConversely, the Coalition tends to subscribe to the idea that government intervention is ipso facto bad, and any meaningful change will require some serious intervention. There is also, to say the least, powerful political influence exerted on both major political parties by the big corporations. The political parties, which are comparatively small entities, might be said not to have a chance when the big money comes looking for influence.\nThe most likely outcome is business as usual. But the noises being made by the Coalition are sounding surprisingly pertinent. The Minister for Small Business, Bruce Billson, described the relationship between the big, dominant players and smaller business as akin to 'serfdom'. Quite right. He says the Government wants to examine 'whether the current competition law is the toolkit that supports that to deliver economic prosperity and growth and durable benefits for consumers'.\nThe answer is easy. It does not. Not even close. Neither is the issue the amount of resources available to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) as its head, Rod Sims predictably claimed, eager to put his hand out. It is the law that the ACCC administers, which only permits the regulator to act if there is a 'substantial lessening of competition'. The test is easy to get around by making incremental acquisitions.\nEven when there are big acquisitions, the ACCC's use of this provision can be extremely weak, an example being Westpac's acquisition of St George in 2008, both of which were heavily concentrated on the New South Wales market. But it is not individual instances that matter as much as the overall shape of the market. Australia lacks anti-trust provisions, such as those that apply in the United States, whereby the total market share can be deemed as a problem and companies required to divest.\nConsequently, we have exceptionally powerful oligopolies. A glance at the Fortune top 500 global companies, which compares revenues (not profits) tells the story. Wesfarmers and Woolworths, which are in the top 200, have larger sales than Google or Coca Cola. National Australia Bank, Commonwealth Bank and Westpac rank far higher than global investment banks like Standard Chartered and Morgan Stanley. Telstra ranks close to McDonald's, Hyundai and Halliburton.\nThat is on the global scale, giving some idea of how big we have allowed our oligopolies to become. On the domestic level Australia is very much the 'Noah's Ark' economy: two of everything.\nConsider the spate of industry sectors in which only two companies dominate. Airlines, where Virgin and Qantas have replicated the old Ansett and Qantas duopoly. Paper and packaging, where Visy and Amcor dominate, resulting in corrupt practices that were recently exposed. Print media, where News Corporation and Fairfax enjoy dominance. BHP-Billiton and Rio Tinto are a global duopoly, although Fortescue Metals has, against the odds, managed to loosen its grip on the iron ore market.\nIt is often argued that it is 'something about the Australian economy' that leads to such concentration, and there are certainly issues of distance. But the argument does not convince. Australia is a $1.5 trillion economy; much smaller countries have far greater diversity. It is rather the case that Australian governments have allowed middle size firms to be taken out, creating an elite tier of dominant, often bullying, oligopolies and small firms with little bargaining power. There are some sizable private firms, but it is not sufficient to even out the imbalance.\nThe heart of the problem is the use of the word 'competition'. A story by this author revealing that the two supermarkets' substantially raised prices (based on a basket of what consumers actually bought rather than across the whole range) in cities where there was no third competitor eventually resulted in a government inquiry. The inquiry concluded that there was fierce 'competition' between the two supermarkets.\nThe evidence used to demonstrate how competitive they were was that both companies had tight profit margins. But profit margins can be tight for many reasons, including poor management. Indeed, it is possible that a monopoly can have poor profit margins. Does that mean it is subject to 'competition'?\nBetter tests of what is meant by 'competition' are needed. This could include having a diversity of players. It seems pretty obvious that duopolies and oligopolies are not particularly competitive, yet the ACCC routinely concludes that they are. This is because of the regulator's terms of reference. Constraints on market dominance such as American-style anti-trust law would also help create some genuine competition. But don't hold your breath \u2014 elites are not shifted easily.\nDavid James has been a business journalist for 25 years and is the author of Managing for the Twenty First Century and The Business Devil's Dictionary. He has a PhD in English Literature from Monash University.\nNoah's Ark image from Shutterstock\nTopic tags: David James, economics, coles, woolworth's\n\u201cCompetition\u201d is a two-edged sword. In the present Capitalistic world of \u201cworshippers of MONEY\u201d, it is usually an expression of unbridled selfishness between competing forces. It sometimes can have accidental spin-offs of reducing prices for the end-users. But this is not it aim. Likewise \u201cCooperation\u201d can mean mutually selfish Collusion . Or it can mean a healthy agreement of each to play an appropriate part in advancing the total Common Good. The human body is an example of great cooperation of the various functions of the cells, limbs and organs for the health of the whole. If some cells increase their demands on the nutrients of the body, we call it CANCER. If some firms or individuals seek excessive shares of market resources, they call it \u201cbusiness\u201d. On the larger scale, \u201cWhat is in the Nation\u2019s Interests\u201d is an expression of One Group\u2019 s self interest, whereas what is in best interests of one and all Nations, is the healthy Cooperation of All.\nI believe that what the Japan\u2019s monetary easing policy is doing to push the YEN downwards healthily is an appropriate action for the Australian government to consider. In a layman term, just print more money to make the currency move downwards peacefully. Since the YEN is much cheaper than before, the export and tourism businesses from Japan are active again. This is exactly what we want to see. Also, if the A$ depreciate, it will show an improvement of our government\u2019s overseas investments which are usually calculated in foreign currencies. Before A$ starts to depreciate, it should be a good idea for investors in Australia to rapidly purchase some overseas assets e.g. a supermarket chain in Hong Kong or some businesses in China or other parts of Asia.\nDulong | 21 November 2013",

A successful 2017 saw her both as a nominee for Scots Singer of the Year at the MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards and a finalist in the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year, whilst she was also the winner of the Molloy Award at The Trip to Birmingham Irish Trad Fest 2017.\nMany, then, were waiting with eager anticipation for her debut release, which after a gestation period of a year was released on 24th March.\nAway From My Windows is a wonderful concept album, celebrating folksong revivalism and encouraging the notion that folksong is an evolutionary art form. The album is a collection of songs, some of which are derived from bothy ballads, which are songs sung, in bothies (outbuildings), in the evenings by farm labourers in the northeast region of Scotland to entertain themselves, others which are sung in different forms the world over, and some which are written by Scots songmakers influenced both by source material and revivalist singers of Aberdeenshire, including and Lizzie Higgins and Stanley Robertson. For good measure, a couple of covers and one self-written are also included.\nWhilst Iona fully respects the heritage of the tradition, the songs presented here showcase her desire to expand and explore musical boundaries; thus her modern interpretations, which include using archive samples and digitally programmed accompaniments, together with drawing on the work of contemporary songwriters such as Aidan Moffat (Arab Strap) and Michael Marra, is in many ways all-embracing.\nThe album also features a top-notch group of musicians, including Luc McNally (Dosca), Tim Edey (Tim Edey Trio), Charlie Gray, Simon Gall (Salsa Celtica), David Foley (RURA), Graham Rorie (Gnoss) Charlie Stewart, and Ross Miller, and was produced by Jani Lang (Dallahan).\nUnderlying all of this, however, and what makes the recording even more enjoyable, is the quality of Iona's vocals. Without exception, every track showcases her remarkable, hypnotic voice.\nOpening song, the beautifully produced Guise of Tough sets the tone for the rest of the album, and whilst everyone will have their personal favourites, at the time of writing, Banks Of The Tigris, a haunting song prompted by the conflict in Syria and the Middle East, is the one to which I return. Remarkably, it is also the only self-penned song on the CD, which means that I am already eagerly anticipating future efforts from her own hand.\nA special mention must be made of the accompanying CD booklet. Beautifully produced, the additional background notes, lyrics and photographs are a very welcome addition to what is a highly professional package.\nAs a debut, Away From My Window displays a maturity that belies Iona's years. The future of traditional music from the North East of Scotland is in very safe hands.\nJess Vincent: Lions Den Barry Nisbet: A Bright Ray Of Sunshine\nBanks of Inverurie",

        "raw_content": "It feels like you don\u2019t have to do anything but be quiet.\nDear Ground Crew:\nHere is the message from July 4, 2018 from Apollo: \u201cRepetitive moods will require new consciousness. You must become aware of the fast pace otherwise you can easily get lost in the turmoil. This is all required as the last vestiges of an old civilization leave. Everything is being turned up and released to the wind. The winds of change are upon you. The role of the ground crew is to be the best anchor that you can be. Stay grounded and centered. Be open to the unfolding. A new era is upon you. Awaken and rejoice in what you have to look forward to.\u201d\nHow are you doing with staying grounded and centered like Apollo suggested? As Lightworkers we are fortunate to know the big picture of what is happening with the massive changes on the planet. Most of humanity are unaware and asleep. Some people in the San Francisco bay area are driving their cars horribly. It requires one to be very aware. I imagine this is occurring everywhere.\nIn Lee Harris\u2019s July Energy Report, he mentions that humanity has \u201creal nervous energy.\u201d The changes are so rampant that people are challenged adjusting. Everything is happening quickly and we know that humans do not like change. The best we can do is go with the flow and trust Spirit.\nIt is my experience that we can connect more readily with the Higher Realms, like the fifth dimension. It feels like being in a state of beingness. It feels like you don\u2019t have to do anything but be quiet. We have plenty to process and are continuing to clear our issues from this incarnation and past lives.\nMy meditations focus on oneness and love. Meditate on your heart chakra and merge with oneness and love. This is how we will be living in the fifth dimension and higher. It will also help you raise your vibration. Staying away from fear and upsetting situations is paramount to keeping the vibration high. I like what teacher Jim Self said in a recent talk. He mentioned that when you hear upsetting news, you can ask yourself: \u201cWhat can I do about it?\u201d\nPosted in Apollo",

Delux\u2019s Bob Bellion and Jimmy de Brabant produced the film, co-written and directed by Jean-Claude Schlim. Moonstone Entertainment\u2019s Etchie Stroh, executive produced and is the worldwide sales rep. House of Boys was shot in English, on location in Luxembourg and Germany.Deftly re-creating Europe\u2019s \u201880\u2019s gay dance club era and featuring a pulsating soundtrack by NYC-based electro-pop duo Dangerous Muse, House of Boys follows the coming-of-age of Frank, a newly-out teen who\u2019s left home to explore his freedom and lifestyle in the intoxicating world of an all-male cabaret run by the glamorous, eccentric Madame (Udo Kier). After falling for fellow dancer Jake, his first \u201ctrue love\u201d, Frank finds his sense of fulfillment later give way to trepidation when Jake is diagnosed with AIDS, a then-virtually-unknown affliction. Amidst the fear and rejection the two encounter as the epidemic spreads, they are comforted by a compassionate doctor (Stephen Fry; Wilde; V for Vendetta; Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire) and the House of Boys \u201cden mother,\u201d Emma.The film soundtrack features some of the biggest hits of the era including Tainted Love by Soft Cell, Muscle Bound by Spandau Ballet World of My Own an original song composed and recorded for the film by Jimmy Somerville of Bronski Beat fame, and Night Break by Jimmy Hendrixin addition to original songs contributed by Dangerous Muse.\u201cWe are delighted to partner with Matson Films in bringing House of Boys to the big screen,\u201d commented Bellion, noting Matson\u2019s expertise in marketing specialty films, particularly music-driven features. \u201cAs filmmakers, we took pride in evoking the era in which the film is set, including the sights and sounds of the dance club scene. At the same time, we wanted to present a story and characters that, while specific to the era, transcend it and are as relevant today as they were 30 years ago. We entrust Matson Films with ensuring that House of Boys will reach the widest possible audience.\u201d\u201cThe opportunity to present House of Boys, which will no doubt draw in audiences that appreciate the music and the epoch, is especially significant as we mark the 30th anniversary of the AIDS epidemic,\u201d notes Matson. He further states that \u201cwhile the film will have particular resonance with gay audiences, we consider its themes of unconditional love and claiming one\u2019s identity to have universal appeal.\u201d DELUX PRODUCTIONS With over 20 years of experience in production, project financing and servicing of international feature films, Delux has become a leading independent player in Europe.

        "raw_content": "Cemetery Lots for Sale; One Man's Treasure Is Another Man's Ultimate White Elephant\nCemetery Property...\nOne Man's Treasure Is Another Man's Ultimate White Elephant\nSend Feedback to RW Ward\nThere are nearly 1.5 million people in this country who think they have a white elephant and don\u2019t know how to get rid of it. They have cemetery lots, mausoleum crypts, niches, markers, memorials, caskets, etc., they no longer or never wanted to own let alone use. The problem is, even though these items are sometimes worth tens of thousands of dollars, they haven\u2019t got a clue how to go about getting them into the hands of someone who would want them.\nEasy, you say, \u201cJust run a classified and wait for the phone to ring.\u201d You would be wrong of course because these things aren\u2019t sold like houses and cars. You could spend more on running classified ads than your property, product or services are worth and still not sell them. The reason is they are time and need sensitive. Most things sold in our everyday world are want and price sensitive. When was the last time you woke up in the morning and said, \u201cGee where is that newspaper I really want to get some death care stuff today. I hope somebody has a great price on what I want.\u201d\nSo how does one go about getting rid of these white elephants? First, they aren\u2019t white elephants. They just appear to be because the way to market them is still being invented. The reason for this is that until just the last three decades there was little need to market them much at all except for the occasional divorce, where, understandably, Romeo and Juliet, who no longer could live together, sure weren\u2019t going to lie through eternity together.\nFamilies tended to remain in the same general vicinity for generations and having family plots or estates was common. This is no longer the case. Mom and dad live in Michigan the kids could be in New Mexico or Alaska and the likelihood of that family being buried together in the future has become more remote every year. Add to this the proliferation of people deciding to be cremated or not having a traditional burial and you start to get an idea of how big the changes have been to the traditions of funerals and burials.\nIt is estimated that nearly 1.5 million people probably have what they would consider one of these white elephants but don\u2019t know what to do. We know there are a lot because we hear from some of them and the question is always the same, \u201cWhat do I have to do to sell my property?\u201d\nThe first thing we tell them is generally it won\u2019t happen fast but when it does you have to be ready to sell immediately. It can take months and sometimes years to find the right buyer. When that email or phone call does come it generally will be because it is needed immediately and so you should have done your homework and be able to turn the property over within hours. This dichotomy is due to the nature of why people buy in the first place, need and speed. Most cemetery property whether sold by the professionals, funeral directors or cemetery owners, or private owners is sold as it is called \u201cAt-Need\u201d, meaning somebody has just died and the family needs to decide on where to bury their loved one in the next two or three days. They generally are under pressure to make this crucial decision in the first 12 hours after death and are not disposed, understandably, to doing a lot of shopping around.\nSo, you should have found out how the property rights are transferred at the cemetery or mausoleum from one owner to another and what paperwork is needed. Generally, a form known as a \u201cquit claim\u201d or something like it is used by most cemeteries to accomplish transfer of rights from one owner to another. It requires your signature and the new owners and usually a fee to do the paperwork, by the cemetery, is charged. The fee can vary from a few dollars to as much as $150 depending on the cemetery ownership. The new owners pay you the agreed upon price and it is done.\nSo, you can see selling isn\u2019t the big problem here. The big problem is making sure this particular family, on that particular day, at that particular cemetery know you even have the property for sale. Trust me they aren\u2019t going to look in the classifieds for your ad.\nSo where will they turn to find out about you? That is were this new marketing is being invented. A good amount of it will be up to you and will take some legwork on your part. If you do it right, you will turn that white elephant into something of value and help a hurting family in the process, a very worthwhile goal, don\u2019t you think?\nSo what do I do, you ask? First write a description and location of what it is you are selling. Make sure you provide pricing, contact information and any other pertinent facts about your offer the potential buyer should know. Don\u2019t forget to let them know you already have done your \u201chomework\u201d and can deliver the property to them quickly and how that will be done. Remember, they are making scores of decisions at a very stressful time and others will be trying to convince them that even though the cost will be greater than what you would charge them for an almost the identical thing, it would be easier to buy from them the professionals. Besides, most states prevent cemeteries and funeral directors from selling already owned property under \u201csale for speculation laws\u201d. They can however pass on information to a buyer from you about your offer.\nOnce you have your listing done get into the hands of those professionals who are involved with death care on a regular basis: clergy, social service professionals, funeral directors, nursing homes, hospices, trust accountants, financial and retirement specialists and estate attorneys, to name a few. This should be handled delicately but if you are providing a really good value to a family who is faced with the ever-increasing cost, the effort will be appreciated. You should be prepared to revisit, write or phone those professionals you make aware of your property every six months or so. Remember, if you don\u2019t stay on top of it nobody else will.\nAlthough the classifieds won\u2019t help you much, you should register with one or several of the established Internet listing services available for private owners to list their property, goods and services. The pricing is as varied as the services and exposure. You should be listing with a service that provides potential buyers with a large listing of properties and seller with the least costly and most flexible arrangements. Being able to change your ad at any time and as easily as possible is must. Since time between listing and selling could be months or years you may not like having to pay a renewal fee every three or four months to maintain your listing, unless your getting something in addition to the listing. To find one of these listing services, try running a \u201ccemetery lots for sale\u201d Google or Yahoo Search like a buyer might. Make sure, however there are plenty of properties and cemeteries being listed. Don\u2019t just list because it\u2019s cheap or free. A professional service will have literally thousands of listings.\nAs this new market develops, the aging \u201cBaby Boomer\u201d population nearly insures this; it will provide a less costly purchase to families now without any alternatives. You will then have turned your white elephant into something of value.\nThe author writes and studies marketing and consumer trends in death care around the world.

        "raw_content": "We forgot to offer Michael his pre-bedtime milk this evening, and easygoing guy that he is (when he's not madly teething, overtired or confined for too long), he let it slide. I felt simultaneously guilty and relieved when I realized my omission, shortly after Tom had already put him down. After all, I'd been planning to phase out that last sippy soon anyway, now that he's drinking with meals, eating solids well, and taking his milk cold. I suppose that I should take the ease with which he went without as a sign that there's no need to further delay.\nIt's just one more reminder of how big he's gotten, though, and I don't know how much my heart can take. As it is, I die a little each time I see him with fresh eyes in the morning, so big and strapping. Up until the day that Mia was born, he was my \"little guy,\" with Abby as the only everyday comparison. Seeing Mia was a stark reminder of just how tiny he started off, and I can't \"unsee\" the tremendous size difference now that it's been made apparent to me.\nOf course, he's not the only one continuing to grow, and sometimes I feel that my head is spinning trying to follow surreptitious changes that suddenly catch my notice and surround me on all sides now. Thankfully, a lot of the change has made life easier: Michael is going down for naps and bedtime with less reliance on rocking and soothing beforehand, Abby's new routine is getting tightened and tweaked, and causing less and less problems for us in both the evenings and the following mornings (she's finally waking at closer to her regular pre-toddler bed time).\nMia, on the other had, is in a more frequent and constant state of flux. It seems miraculous and amazing to me how easily my evenings were with her for the first week-and-a-half, especially compared to how they've regularly played out lately. She takes a good six attempts to put down, unless I have the patience to let her get a head start of an hour or more on my person before relocating her. This is now the third night we've tried the mini-crib at the start of the night, and though we had pretty good results the first night, it's been a challenge ever since. I finally gave up after several failed attempts this evening, first allowing her to snooze on my lap for awhile, and then placing her in her Rock n' Play sleeper, instead.\nOf course, none of this should come as a surprise to me, and I suppose that it really doesn't. There are many reasons why the first three months or so are a bit of a blur; sleep deprivation being the primary one, the ever-present behavioral shifts and resultant need for adaptation being another major factor. It's a constant game of wait, see, and respond. Maybe she's not ready for the mini-crib yet. Maybe she's just having a bad night. I'll just have to figure out what works in the moment, and that's okay for now (or so I try to keep reminding myself).\nIn the meantime, I'm carrying myself through it by focusing with some admiration on the way that sometimes things just work out for the best. That one miraculous week-and-a-half that Mia gave us in the beginning aligned perfectly with the insanity that grew out of our toddler bed transition. I can't imagine trying to get through all of the difficulty with Abby while struggling with Mia at the same time. And so, while I wish I could have encapsulated that perfect bit of sleeping that Mia initially offered us and apply it to now, I will rest (to the extent that I can) content with the fact that at least Abby is mostly back on schedule, and Michael is getting closer and closer to being able to sleep through without incident, even while Mia now throws me for a new loop each night. As for that latter problem, I think I'll make no further plans beyond doing whatever needs doing to get through the next couple of months with my sanity (mostly) intact. Routines are a bear to establish, and thankfully they can wait, where Mia is concerned.\nAll part of the particular joy of having a newborn, I suppose. Being so acutely aware of how very precious this brief little phase is, I'm incredibly grateful to have a thorough appreciation of how much the struggle truly is worth it, this time around.",

The farms have since been destocked and decontaminated and now lay fallow to assist with eradication of the virus.\nWS has not been detected in WA\u2019s wild or farmed prawns.\nThe changes increase the size of the restricted area by moving the Northern border of the Queensland zone further away from the location of the positive detections in Moreton Bay, up to latitude 24o29.904S WGS 84, approximately 45km North of Bundaberg\nA map of the new restriction area is available online.\nThe impacts of the extension of the Northern Boundary are expected to be limited, with only a small number of Queensland exporters potentially impacted.\nWild crustaceans from the rest of Queensland can be imported by WA-approved businesses able to meet capture and processing requirements.\nFarmed prawns from Queensland and New South Wales can be imported if tests are negative for the WS virus.\nThe new requirements also still allow for wild crustaceans from the restricted zone to be imported into WA, if they\u2019ve been treated with gamma irradiation. The gamma irradiation kills the WS virus and this is an option to assist the bait prawn industry.\nCooking destroys the virus, so all cooked products continue to be able to be imported into WA.\nDue to the serious impact of WS and its ability to spread easily, people fishing or crabbing in WA have a critical role in preventing the spread of this virus by doing the following:\nAll seafood for human consumption, especially imported raw prawns, should not be used as bait, as they may carry and introduce viruses to our waterways and have impacts on both farmed and wild prawns and other crustaceans.\nPrawns with White Spot may have a loose shell with numerous white spots on the inside surface of the shell and a pink to red discolouration.\nFishers should also check their bait prawns or other crustaceans for signs of WS and any thought to have the disease should be retained and immediately reported to the FishWatch hotline on 1800 815 507, which operates 24-hours a day.\nBiosecurity Compliance Manager Brad Tilley said the changed import requirements remained a precautionary measure, an approach that has served WA well during this outbreak.\n\u201cThese updated requirements will be subject to review as new information becomes available,\u201d Mr Tilley said.\n\u201cThe new requirements follow a precautionary approach and will allow a larger buffer zone between the area of positive WS detections and seafood supplies into Western Australia.\n\u201cWA continues to support the WS management work being done in Queensland and locally to reduce the risk of WS entering our State.\n\u201cImporters are encouraged to check the requirements on the department\u2019s website.\u201d\nMore information about WS can be found at: http://www.fish.wa.gov.au/Sustainability-and-Environment/Aquatic-Biosecurity/Pages/Biosecurity-Incidents.aspx\nPhoto credit (for above images):",

        "raw_content": "IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to think about the Holocaust. It is impossible not to think about it. Nothing in history equals the horror of it. There is no way to imagine it. There is no way to speak of it without diminishing it. Thousands upon thousands were taken away in Nazi Germany during World War II. They were gassed. Their corpses were burned. Many were old men. Many were small children. Many were women. They were charged with nothing except being Jews. In the end there were apparently something like six million of them who died, six thousand thousands.\nAnyone who claims to believe in an all-powerful, all-loving God without taking into account this devastating evidence either that God is indifferent or powerless, or that there is no God at all, is playing games.\nAnyone who claims to believe in the inevitable perfectibility of the human race without taking this into account is either a fool or a lunatic.\nThat many of the people who took part in the killings were professing Christians, not to mention many more who knew about the killings but did nothing to interfere, is a scandal the church of Christ perhaps does not deserve to survive.\nFor people who don't believe in God, suffering can be understood simply as part of the way the world works. The Holocaust is no more than an extreme example of the barbarities that human beings have been perpetrating on each other since the start. For people who do believe in God, it must remain always a dark and awful mystery.\nIf Love itself is really at the heart of all, how can such things happen? What do such things mean? The Old Testament speaks of the elusive figure of the Suffering Servant, who though \"despised and rejected of men\" and brutally misused, has nonetheless willingly \"borne our griefs and carried our sorrows\" and thereby won an extraordinary victory in which we all somehow share (Isaiah 52:13-53:12). The New Testament speaks of the cross, part of whose meaning is that even out of the worst the world can do, God is still able to bring about the best.\nBut all such explanations sound pale and inadequate before the gas chambers of Buchenwald and Ravensbr\u00fcck, the ovens of Treblinka.\nNewer PostHomelessness\nOlder PostHoliness",

        "raw_content": "Part of the exciting things about being young and free is being able to go places and experience life with friends and family. Once you learn how to drive, it\u2019s the best time to explore and travel, not just to see the world but also to test your driving skills and enhance them. This is pretty much what you can do with your own vehicle, whether you\u2019ve been given your own or you\u2019re borrowing from your parents. The problem sometimes comes from when you go out of town and you don\u2019t have your own car and need to resort to renting from a car rental agency.\nHere, you\u2019ll be disappointed to find out that there are hardly any car rentals for those 21 year old and younger being offered by major car rental agencies in New York. The reason behind it is unclear considering that yes, you\u2019re already a licensed driver and are able to drive your own car. It may be safe to assume that New York car rental agencies are leery of providing car rentals to under 21 drivers because they may not be as experienced compared to older drivers and hence, may be more prone to accidents and mishaps, leading to hassles with insurance and repairs.\nHowever, if you\u2019re really persistent and tenacious, you may indeed find some car rental New York agencies that offer car rentals for individuals under 21 years of age. One case is if you\u2019re part of a corporate discount program, which may be a farfetched idea but still plausible, like if you are under an internship program at a company or organization. You may also be allowed for car rentals under 21 if your insurance policy carries the full coverage for Liability and Collision.\nRegardless of the car rental agency that you go to, you can expect that if they let you rent a car in New York even if you\u2019re under 21, you may need to pay additional surcharges for the car rental. Some of these charges range from EUR25-EUR100 depending on the pick-up location in New York. Consider this amount because it\u2019s really a huge addition to your car rental budget and you may rack up a fee if you plan on renting for a long time. Also, you may be restricted by the type or class of vehicle that you\u2019re allowed to rent and you may have to put on hold your dream of driving those luxury sports cars.\nGiven these conditions, if you still want to pursue car rental New York and you are under 21, you may find better success with smaller, local New York car rental companies rather than the major organizations. It may take longer considering you have to go through each company\u2019s Terms & Conditions but at least you\u2019ll be able to find car rentals under 21 for your driving pleasure. Before you do sign that car rental agreement, try and compare if it\u2019s really worth your time and money to rent a car. If you have other transportation options, you may want to consider those too because in the long run, it may be more prudent for you to just save the money you\u2019ll spend on renting and use it eventually for buying your own personal car.",

        "raw_content": "The Future of Our Cities: New Agenda, New Faces, New Year\nby David Kuria (nairobi)\nNAIROBI, Jan 24 (IPS) - Urban development is one of our greatest challenges. While the world is highly urbanizing, our cities are transforming the nexus for the social, economic, environmental and political realities of our times.\nThe United Nations Human Settlements (UN-Habitat) predicts the number of people living in cities will almost double to seven billion in 2050 from 3.7 billion today. Unfortunately, most of our urban centres also are mired with growing unplanned settlements, the so-called slums, which have absolute no basic services while being home to over 1 billion people.\nTo tackle this looming urban growth challenge, UN's New Urban Agenda, a 20-year vision for sustainable cities, was adopted at the 2016 Habitat III conference in Ecuador. There are also regularly-held World Urban Forum meetings that bring together great minds from the governments, political, development, academia and business to discuss the future of our cities. Next month, Kuala Lumpar will host the ninth series and lay down the implementation strategies under the banner \"Cities 2030, Cities for All: Implementing the New Urban Agenda\".\nThis Forum will contribute to global mobilization towards advocating for the common vision on sustainable urban development in advancing on the achievement of the Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). With only 12 years left to reach the SDG agenda, the Forum must come with concrete plans for accelerating a better urban future.\nWhile Kuala Lumpur boasts islands of artificial rainforest, one of the fastest growing urbanized agglomerations stretching 2,245 sq.km around it, with 7.4 million people, has lost all ancient rainforests to destructive palm oil plantations. Credit: Manipadma Jena/IPS\nThe late December 2017 appointment of Penang Mayor Datuk Maimunah Mohd Sharif as executive director of UN-Habitat is also an important current moment for urban development. She is tasked with driving the global agenda on the implementation of the new urban agenda, attracting diverse thinking and mobilizing different actors to support practical action on the implementation of this agenda. She will further be tasked to provide urban areas and cities with the right mechanism and guidance towards sustainable development path.\nMy take is that it is doable, but UN-Habitat must mobilize enough financial resources to make it possible. UN-Habitat must also harmonise the operations of the other UN agencies working within the urban space, including UN Environment Programem (UNEP), International Labour Organization (ILO) and UN Women, among others.\nOne of the great urban challenges facing UN-Habitat and World Urban Forum attendees is to harmonise the sustainability performances of our cities. It will be necessary for the UN-Habitat administration to create a new framework for the City Sustainability Index (CSI) that will enable our city leaders and managers to assess and compare cities' sustainability performance to understand the global impact of cities on the environment and quality of human life as compared with their economic contribution.\nWhile cities have been touted as the engines for economic and political development, they have not received commensurate attentions in financing in terms of sustainability. We, especially in the Africa context, continuously use cities as garbage sites and pollute the rivers and water bodies and air. Crime is also rampant, there are health risks and other myriad challenges. Thus, a concerted effort towards urban performance, with global and national commitments (protocols for action on cities) should be enforced. We must protect our urban future.\nPanama City, one of the fastest growing metropolises in Latin America. Credit: Emilo Godoy/IPS\nOf course, any global agenda will require commensurate local engineered actions. In Kenya, where I am based, for instance, the approval of the Urban Areas and Cities Act (2015) provides an impetus to the global new agenda thinking, through improving urban governance systems. The Act is expected to be implemented by the country's new government and it offers a good framework for proactive and inclusive governance in line with the new urban agenda. The Act establishes criteria for classifying areas as urban areas and cities and the principles of governance and management of urban areas and cities. It has provided for participation by residents in the governance of urban areas and cities.\nWith proper implementation, this Act will herald in a new era of inclusive management of our towns and provide an opportunity for diverse capabilities and dialogues towards improving our cities. The engagement and inclusion of different sectors including professionals, neighborhood association, business communities and industry in the management of cities as outlined by the Act offers a good foundation for championing local actions.\nAs we move into the new year, we can only hold on hope for the better of our cities, both through the capability of the global UN agencies and localized efforts to mobilise more resources to effectively and timely implement the New Urban Agenda. Time is of the essence.\n<p><a href=\"http://www.globalissues.org/news/2018/01/24/23879\">The Future of Our Cities: New Agenda, New Faces, New Year</a>, <cite>Inter Press Service</cite>, Wednesday, January 24, 2018 (posted by Global Issues)</p>\nThe Future of Our Cities: New Agenda, New Faces, New Year, Inter Press Service , Wednesday, January 24, 2018 (posted by Global Issues)",

        "raw_content": "Hosea, according to his own statement, in verse 1 of Chapter 1, was a contemporary of Isaiah. So He was concerned with the same problems that faced Isaiah. And it is not surprising that some of his prophecy is closely related to that of Isaiah. However, his message primarily concerned Israel instead of Judah.\n(Verse 1) The word of the LORD that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah , and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel .\nIn the first verse of Isaiah\u2019s prophecy, he tells us that the word of the LORD came to him in this same time frame. He only mentioned the four kings of Judah , and said nothing about Jeroboam the king of Israel . The reason for this is, probably, that his prophecy primarily was concerning Judah and Jerusalem , although he did sometimes therein mention Israel . But Hosea\u2019s prophecy was chiefly concerning Israel . Yet it did sometimes refer to Judah . The Jeroboam mentioned here is not the one who rebelled against Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, but is Jeroboam II, the son of Joash, king of Israel . We do not know at just what point in the reign of Uzziah the word of the LORD came to Hosea. But it was, likely, in the latter part of his reign. For the two kings between him and Hezekiah reigned 16 years each. And the time of this revelation to Hosea extended into the reign of Hezekiah.\n(Verses 2 through 5) The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD. So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son. And the LORD said unto him, call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel . And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel .\nAs he said, this was only \u201cthe beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea.\u201d It seems a strange commandment from the LORD. There has been some controversy concerning whether this was actually something that Hosea literally experienced in life, or just something that he experienced in a vision. Some argue that, since adultery is considered of God to be such a great sin, He would never actually have commanded Hosea to marry an adulteress. Therefore, according to their argument, this must have been only a vision that the LORD showed him, in which he heard this command, and saw himself follow it. On the other side of the argument it is maintained that these things are actually historical events. That is, in actual fact, Hosea heard this command from the LORD, and married such a woman. Then some argue that God would never give such a command to one of His servants. But He only gave Hosea leave to do what he already wanted to do anyway. This seems to be the changing of a command to permission, and appears less in agreement with the text than either of the other views. Since the thoughts and ways of God are as high above ours as the heavens are above the earth, upon what foundation can we stand to say that He would, or would not do this, or that? Whether this was actual fact, or a vision given to Hosea, the lesson is the same. For the son born of this marriage was to be called Jezreel, because the time for the LORD\u2019S avenging the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and bringing the kingdom of the house of Israel to an end, was at hand. And this child was God\u2019s sign of the approach of that day. This great event would come to pass in the valley of Jezreel . The LORD would let Israel become defenseless, and be overcome in a battle in that valley.\n(Verses 6 and 7) And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel ; but I will utterly take them away. But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah , and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.\nSome scholars tell us that \u201cLoruhamah\u201d means \u201cunpitied.\u201d And certain it is that the LORD declared that she was the witness that He would not pity Israel . He had shut Israel off from His mercy, and would bring upon them exactly what He had declared. He would utterly take them away. But, as is later declared in this prophecy, this utter taking away will not be forever, but only until they \u201cshall return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days.\u201d Neither will all be cut off. At the same time the LORD will have mercy upon Judah , and will deliver them, not by their army and weapons of war, but by His own power. This He fulfilled, as recorded in II Kings 19:35.\n(Verses 8 and 9) Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son. Then God said, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.\nThe meaning of the name, \u201cLoammi,\u201d seems to be \u201cNot My people.\u201d And the LORD gave this name for this child as witness that He had cut off Israel , and declared that He was not their God.\n(Verses 10 and 11) Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not My people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God. Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.\nIn spite of this cutting off the LORD declares in verses 4 through 7, He will always leave a remnant, so that the number of the children of Israel shall be innumerable. And in the very place where He has declared to them that they are not His people, and He is not their God, they will be reclaimed. \u201cIt shall be said unto them, \u2018Ye are the sons of the living God.\u2019\u201d In that day both the children of Israel and the children of Judah shall be joined together, and shall appoint themselves one head. The first part of verse 1 seems to be a prophecy of the very thing we now see in Israel . Certainly, they are not all gathered together yet. But they are from more than just the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, which made up the \u201chouse of Judah ,\u201d or the southern kingdom. And, though they are not all gathered, they did take upon themselves the name of Israel , instead of Judah . Yet they have appointed, or elected, for themselves, one head, or government, instead of being divided as they had been for centuries. \u201cAnd they shall come up out of the land: for great is the day of Jezreel.\u201d We have not yet seen the greatness of the day of Jezreel. But just as the LORD broke Israel in the valley of Jezreel , so shall He heal them in the day of Jezreel. And great will be that day.\n(Verses 1 through 5) Say ye unto your brethren, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her whoredoms out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts; lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst. And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they be the children of whoredoms. For their mother hath played the harlot: she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.\nThe first thing in this that we should notice is the change of words from those used in former verses. No longer are the names Loruhamah and Loammi used; but Ruhamah and Ammi. The syllable, \u201clo\u201d is actually a negative. Now instead of calling their brethren \u201cLoammi,\u201d or \u201cNot My people,\u201d they are to say \u201cAmmi,\u201d \u201cMy people.\u201d And instead of saying to their brethren, \u201cLoruhamah,\u201d or \u201cUnpitied,\u201d they are to say, \u201cRuhamah,\u201d or \u201cyou that have obtained pity.\u201d For God has declared, in verse 10 of the preceding chapter, that \u201cin the place where it was said unto them, \u201cYe are not My people,\u201d the saying shall be changed to \u201cYe are the sons of the living God.\u201d Now they are to plead with their mother, the nation of Israel , and warn her to turn away from her wickedness and adultery, lest the LORD lay upon her the terrible penalty He has pronounced, and show no mercy to her children. She has, in her worship of idols, acted just as a prostitute, She has gone to any one of the idol gods that she thinks can be of any material profit to her. She thinks that they are the ones, who have kept her furnished with the necessities of life, and with its luxuries also. So she runs after them as a prostitute does after men that she thinks have money. As we shall see, for this cause she is to bear great chastisement.\n(Verses 6 through 13) Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths. And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now. For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal. Therefore will I return, and take away My corn in the time thereof, and My wine in the season thereof, and will recover My wool and My flax given to cover her nakedness. And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of Mine hand. I will also cause her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts. And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them. And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat Me, saith the LORD.\nThis is the punishment the LORD will visit upon Israel for all her wickedness. All our lives we have heard the saying, \u201cIgnorance of the law is no excuse.\u201d And this passage certainly witnesses to the truth of this saying, so far as the law of God is concerned. He declares that Israel is ignorant of the fact that it is He, Who has given her all the things she so much enjoys, and, indeed, needs. Instead, she thinks her lovers, the idol gods she has been worshipping, have given her all these things. Don\u2019t laugh at such ignorance, and think, \u201cHow foolish anyone would be to think such.\u201d Just look at your own life, and, whether you have little, or much, of this world\u2019s goods, consider where it came from. You may think, \u201cMy hard work, and my wisdom in the deals I have made, have enabled me to accomplish this.\u201d But think again. How many do you know, who have worked just as hard as you have, and are your equals in intelligence, but have not been able to accomplish as much as you have? Then remember that you have what you have by the blessing of God. There are many today among what are sometimes called, \u201cstreet people,\u201d who have worked just as hard as you, or I. But their efforts have not been blessed as have ours. So give God the praise and glory that belong to Him. This Israel did not do. The LORD says that she did not know that it was He, Who had given her these things. Instead, she thought they were the rewards she had received from the idols she had served. He declares that after He encloses her with thorns and a wall so that she cannot find her lovers, these idols she has been worshipping, however much she seeks them, she will decide it was better with her in her former estate, and she will try to return to Him. But at that time, He will take away these blessings He has given her, and leave her with nothing. She will be more desolate than ever before. She will no longer have any joy, nor will she have any more feast days, sabbaths, or solemn feasts. He will even destroy her vines and fig trees, turn them into a forest, and let the beasts of the field consume them. In verse 13, when He says, \u201cAnd I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat Me,\u201d He does not mean that He is going to return her to those days, in which she had rejoiced. Instead, the meaning is that the desolation He has already pronounced upon her is a visitation for those things. She shall be thoroughly punished for them.\n(Verses 14 through 18) Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her. And I will give her, her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt . And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, that thou shalt call Me Ishi; and shalt call Me no more Baali. For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name. And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely.\nThis, together with the remainder of this chapter, looks forward to the final restoration of Israel , and the ushering in of the wonderful peace, not only among men, but even among the beasts of the fields, the fowls of the heaven, and the creeping things of the earth. The LORD shall \u201callure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her.\u201d That is, He will give her a great desire to return to Jerusalem , the city that had for so long been a wilderness. And there He will \u201cgive her, her vineyards, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope.\u201d There can be no doubt that during the last half of the twentieth century we have seen the fulfillment of this part of this prophecy. None can say just how long it will be before the remainder of it will be fulfilled. But it will come to pass. Make no mistake about that. The Lord has spoken it; so it cannot fail. In the day (or time) of its fulfillment all the names of other gods will be taken away from Israel , and remembered no more. Israel shall no more call God \u201cmy Lord,\u201d but \u201cmy Husband.\u201d Just as the gospel church is so often spoken of as the bride of the Lamb, Israel is called the wife of Jehovah. In the day here announced shall be such peace as has never been known since the curse was placed upon the earth for the sin of man. All men, all beasts of the field, all birds of the air, and all creeping things of the earth shall be at perfect peace, not because they have agreed to do so, but because God Himself shall make a covenant for them. They will have no part in making this covenant. But they will keep it.\n(Verses 19 through 23) And I will betroth thee unto Me forever; yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies. I will even betroth thee unto Me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD. And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth; and the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel. And I will sow her unto Me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not My people, Thou art My people; and they shall say, Thou art my God.\nThis is the LORD\u2019S declaration that this union between Him and Israel shall never again be broken. His righteousness, judgment, and lovingkindness shall be hers forever, and she will be forever faithful to Him. This will be \u201cheard,\u201d or witnessed, by Him, the heavens, the earth, and by all produced by the earth. To those, to whom He has said earlier in this chapter, \u201cYe are not My people,\u201d He will now declare, \u201cYou are My people.\u201d And their reply to Him will be, \u201cYou are our God.\u201d Thus it will forever be.\n(Verses 1 through 5) Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine. So I bought her unto me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley: and I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; and thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee. For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim: afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days.\nHere Hosea was commanded to love a woman, who, though beloved of her friend, was an adulteress. This was to symbolize the relation between the LORD and Israel . So Hosea did not marry her, but bought her for fifteen pieces of silver and a homer and a half of barley. Some may make some great thing out of the price Hosea paid. I will leave that part of the matter to them. The point is that instead of marrying her, he bought her. And this is the price he had to pay in the deal. Nothing is said about who it was to whom he had to pay the price. But since harlots make their living by selling themselves, it seems reasonable to conclude that he paid her. Then he made a covenant with her. \u201cThou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.\u201d This was to signify to Israel what the LORD had determined for them. He would leave them for many days \u201cwithout a king, and without a prince, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim.\u201d Thus they would have neither a civil ruler, nor a spiritual leader. They would not even have an idol god, as would other nations. They would be \u201cwithout an image.\u201d And they certainly would have no sacrifice, no ephod, and no teraphim; none of the items of the worship of Jehovah. Their temple was destroyed in 70 AD. And until this day they have had none of these things. And they will not have such until a new temple is built, and, during the early part of the reign of the beast, he permits them to resume their sacrifices. However in the \u201cmiddle of the week,\u201d which most Bible scholars take to mean \u201cafter three and one half years,\u201d he will cut that off, and set himself up \u201cin the temple of God , shewing himself that he is God.\u201d (II Thess. 2:4) Hosea says, Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days. This is when shall come to pass that which Zechariah sets forth in the fourteenth chapter of his prophecy.\nIt is then that the LORD will himself stand upon the mount of Olives, and bring to pass the wonderful things that are attendant upon that. When this is done, the children of Israel \u201cshall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days.\u201d\n(Verses 1 through 5) Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel : for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea shall be taken away. Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest. Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.\nHere instead of acting out a scenario to symbolize what He will do to them, the LORD calls upon the children of Israel to hear the word of the LORD. He declares that He has \u201ca controversy with the inhabitants of the land,\u201d and gives the reason for it. \u201cBecause there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.\u201d He continues, and tells them what they are doing that is so terrible. \u201cBy swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.\u201d This is a terrible condition for a people to be in. And when we take an honest look at the situation in our own country, we see a very close approximation of this in present society. Every item of this indictment can be seen among us. Adultery has become so common that many think there was nothing wrong with our former president having so many \u201caffairs\u201d even while in the highest office of the land. Neither do they think he did anything wrong by his lying, and swearing false oaths. And concerning killing, a majority of the population of this country think it perfectly all right to kill the unborn babies. In fact they even want to take our tax money to pay for such. If we add these killings to the other murders that are being committed all around us, it would appear that indeed \u201cblood toucheth blood;\u201d it covers the land. He declares to Israel that because of this condition He will bring desolation upon the land. And that He did, just as He said. Not only did He bring it upon them, but He left them in this desolation for centuries. During that time, He said, \u201cTherefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.\u201d The finishing touch of this penalty was laid upon them in 70 AD, and is not yet fully removed. Still He says \u201cLet no man strive, nor reprove another.\u201d Even in this condition, there is to be no pointing the finger at another, and accusing him of being guilty of these things. For all are guilty. All the people are as they that strive with the priest. And this is something strictly forbidden by the law of the LORD. Because of this the LORD says that both the people and the prophet shall fall. Not only so, but He further says, \u201cAnd I will destroy your mother.\u201d Since the temple of God was at Jerusalem , all the Israelites spoke of Jerusalem as their mother. And the LORD says that He will destroy her. And that He did.\n(Verses 6 through 11) My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I also will reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to Me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. As they were increased, so they sinned against Me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. They eat up the sin of My people, and they set their heart on their iniquity. And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings. For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD. Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.\nThe first statement in this text gives one of the foremost reasons for the destruction, or desolation, of the people of God. That reason is the lack of knowledge. One might then think that this would be easy enough to remedy. All we have to do is to teach them. BUT how can that be done when they reject knowledge? They do not want to learn, and will not learn. As I listen to many ideas that are among the LORD\u2019S people today, I am made to wonder if that is not our trouble now, just as it was when Hosea was given this word. I know that we all have access to the Bible, both The Old and The New Testaments. And yet many of the ideas we hear set forth are not even remotely related to the doctrine taught in them. Are we rejecting knowledge today, as they did then? If so, hear what He says. \u201cBecause thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to Me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. As they were increased, so they sinned against Me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.\u201d When I was a child, I often heard people, both men and women, some of whom might not even go regularly to church, and who made no claim to being preachers, say, just in ordinary conversation, \u201cThe Lord said that we should do this, or that;\u201d or the negative side of the matter, \u201cHe said that we should not do it.\u201d Now, it is seldom that anything is said about such, except by the preacher, and that when he is in the pulpit. Have we \u201cforgotten the law of our God?\u201d If so, What did He say that He will do? \u201cI will forget your children.\u201d The great cry today is, \u201cMy children will not listen to anything I tell them.\u201d Perhaps we should take a look at what we have told them. Our normal conversation and our everyday actions tell them what is really on our minds, far more than what we say when we claim to be giving them instructions. The reason they will not listen to our instructions may be that our own lives and conversations may be so loud that they cannot hear the instructions we try to give. It grieves my heart to see parents teaching a baby, who is just learning to walk and talk, to do, or say, something they think is \u201csmart,\u201d but for which they will later want to chastise him. There is so much contradiction in the lives of many of us, that it is no wonder the children of today are in so much trouble. Thank God they are not all giving trouble. But many of those who are may be only reflecting the fact that their parents have forgotten the law of their God. Where that is the case, He says, \u201cI will also forget thy children.\u201d Parents, to what punishment are we condemning our children? When this is going on, as it was in Israel in that day, and as it may also be among our people in this day, we can only expect it to get worse until God lays His hand upon us. He says, \u201cAs they were increased, so they sinned against Me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.\u201d The more the population increases under these conditions, the more will they sin against God. And because of this, He will make the very thing in which they glory, or boast, to be their shame, or bring them to shame. When He says, \u201cThey eat up the sin of My people, and set their heart on their iniquity,\u201d He is not saying that they, by so doing, destroy that sin and iniquity, but simply that it so whets their appetite for sin, that they become more and more active in it. Thus their situation becomes worse and worse. It becomes so bad that people and priest alike are caught up in it. And The LORD will surely punish them all for their iniquities. \u201cFor they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD. Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.\u201d He will send famine upon them, so that they shall not have sufficient food, and neither will their population increase in spite of all the prostitution and adultery in the land. The latter portion of this might well describe present day society, inasmuch as there seems to be more fornication and adultery in the land to day than ever before: while, at the same time, there is so much abortion that it certainly holds down the increase of population. Yet this passage may refer more to what is called \u201cspiritual adultery,\u201d than to the natural sin. For Israel was engaging in all manner of idolatry. They were trying to worship every idol god they heard of. In following after either natural or spiritual adultery, they have left off to take heed to the LORD. For His commandments forbid both. Either of these, as well as drunkenness, \u201dwine,\u201d destroy, or take away the ability of the heart to follow the commandments of the LORD.\n(Verses 12 through 14) My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a-whoring from under their God. They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery. I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredoms, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.\nAlthough whoredom and adultery, in the natural sense, are forbidden by the laws of God, He is here referring to idolatry more that to the sin of the flesh. Since Israel has so long practiced idolatry, even to asking counsel of their stocks and staves, mere pieces of wood that can of themselves do nothing, not even think, and have been offering sacrifice under every green tree because it gave a good shadow in which to rest, the LORD will not punish their wives and their daughters for their adulteries because they are only following the examples set before them. But for lack of understanding all of the people shall fall. Of course, the knowledge He refers to as being absent in them is the knowledge of God. He has already previously shown that their reason for not having it is not that it is not available to them, but that they have rejected it.\n(Verses 15 through 19) Though thou, Israel , play the harlot, let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth-aven, nor swear, The LORD liveth. For Israel slideth back like a backsliding heifer: now the LORD will feed them as a lamb in a large place. Ephraim is joined unto idols: let him alone. Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredoms continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give ye. The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.\nThis first statement is a warning to Judah to not follow in the steps of Israel . Do not even come to the places, such as Gilgal and Beth-aven, where Israel has been offering sacrifices to idol gods. And do not even go there to take such allowable oaths as \u201cThe LORD liveth.\u201d To go to such places is an abomination in itself. For Israel has been continually backsliding. Even when the LORD has chastened her for her idolatries, she has gone shortly back into them. Yet the LORD declares that He \u201cwill feed them as a lamb in a large place\u201d When He says \u201cNow the LORD will feed them as a lamb in a large place,\u201d he does not mean that He will do it immediately, as we might infer from the use of \u201cnow\u201d to introduce it. History itself shows that He did not do so. In fact, that promise still awaits fulfillment. We would be better advised to consider the \u201cnow\u201d as \u201cAfter all this\u201d signifying that in spite of all their sins, He will yet do this. However it will be done when He finally restores Israel , as He so many times declares. As for the time presently before them, He says, \u201cEphraim is joined to idols: let him alone.\u201d Just as He often does, He substitutes the name of one tribe of Israel , \u201cEphraim,\u201d for the whole people. He will bring them to shame because of their sacrifices, not their sacrifices to Him, but those they have offered to idols. \u201cTheir drink is sour (fermented).\u201d That is, they are drunken. They have continually committed whoredom, or idolatry, and her rulers shamelessly love to call upon the people, \u201cGive ye.\u201d They seemed to have the same idea that most politicians of today follow. They think that any problem can be solved by putting more money into it. But it would not keep Israel from being brought to shame for her idolatries. And neither will it save us today.\n(Verses 1 through 5) Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel ; and give ear, O house of the king: for judgment is toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor. And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all. I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from Me: for now, O Ephraim, thou commitest whoredom, and Israel is defiled. They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD. And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.\nThis warning is to the priests, the house of Israel , and the house of the king. In short, the whole nation of Israel , with no one excepted. They were all involved in this from the least to the greatest. The gist of this warning is that judgment is against (\u201ctoward\u201d) them all for their sins. And because all are guilty none shall escape. The snare and the net mentioned here are not the implements used by them for catching wild birds and animals, but their schemes for entangling and defrauding their neighbors. And those making use of such, (\u201cthe revolters,\u201d) are strongly committed to slaughter, or murder, in spite of the many rebukes God has spoken to them all. They will not \u201cframe,\u201d or arrange their works in a manner that they may \u201cturn unto their God.\u201d Before someone cries, \u201cBut they COULD NOT do that,\u201d let us refresh your memory. The scripture says, \u201cThey WILL NOT\u201d do this. The question of what they can, or can not, do, has not been presented. What is under consideration is the fact that they have no desire to do it. The reason for this is that the \u201cspirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD. The pride of Israel is its own witness against him. It testifies to his face. Because of this Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity. (Both names refer to the same people, and are thus used for emphasis, to indicate that none shall escape.) As if this were not bad enough, \u201c Judah also shall fall with them.\u201d While it is true that Jerusalem was not overcome until the time of the Babylonian captivity, many cities in Judah did fall at the same time as Israel , when the Assyrians overcame them.\n(Verses 6 through 12) They shall go with their flocks and their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find Him; He hath withdrawn Himself from them. They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions. Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud at Beth-aven, after thee, O Benjamin. Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be. The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out My wrath upon them like water. Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment. Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.\nAlthough these people should take herds of cattle and flocks of sheep, offer them as sacrifice, and thus with them seek the LORD, they shall not find Him. For He has withdrawn Himself from them. They have been completely unfaithful to the LORD, and thus their children are illegitimate. Remember that Israel is considered as the wife of Jehovah, the LORD. Thus, as they have left Him and gone after idols, it is as if a woman has left her husband, and had children by other men. Those children are illegitimate, or \u201cstrange.\u201d \u201cNow shall a month devour them and their portion,\u201d in view of the fact that they were to be besieged and overcome by the Assyrians, seems to mean that a month of such a siege will be sufficient to destroy both them and their possessions. So they are told to \u201cblow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah.\u201d That is, they are to prepare for battle. For the enemy is on his way. Not only Israel , but Benjamin also shall be affected by this. Benjamin was the tribe that remained with Judah when the kingdom was divided in the days of Rehoboam and Jeroboam, the first kings after the division. And the usage of the name here is the same as if he had said Judah . There can be no question about the desolation that is to come upon all of them. For the LORD has made known to them what \u201cshall surely be.\u201d Even the princes of Judah have been just as evil as men that take away the boundary markers of their neighbors. And this is a sin expressly forbidden by the law of God. Because of this the LORD says, \u201cI will pour out My wrath upon them like water.\u201d When He says, \u201cEphraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he walked willingly after the commandment,\u201d He does not mean that Ephraim followed the LORD\u2019S commandment, willingly, or unwillingly. Instead he willingly followed the commandment of the princes of Judah , which, since they \u201cwere like them that remove the bound,\u201d unquestionably gave evil commandments. For all these evils, the LORD says, \u201cTherefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.\u201d That is, He will cause them to deteriorate more and more until they are destroyed.\n(Verses 13 and 14) When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound. For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah : I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.\nWhen Ephraim and Judah saw the danger in which they were, they did not turn to their God, but went to the Assyrian king, hoping for help. But instead they were only in deeper trouble. The Assyrians overran the country, and took them captive. Isaiah explains that they were only the rod of the indignation of the LORD, and He is the One, Who sent them against Israel . Here the LORD says that He will be to both Ephraim and Judah as a lion that attacks, and goes away. He will take away, and none can rescue those taken. Certainly, Israel and Judah had sinned. And it was for their sins that this was to come upon them. But keep in mind that it is GOD, Who sent it upon them. Therefore it would accomplish exactly what He purposed it to do. So it is with us even today. And none but He can deliver.\n(Verse 15) I will go and return to My place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek My face: in their affliction they will seek Me early.\nAs with every promise of destruction and desolation upon Israel and Judah , the LORD also promises final restoration of them. That is the promise under which they are spared even today. Just as surely as the promise of their desolation was fulfilled, so shall be the promise of their restoration. It cannot fail, or be changed, no matter how many men may interpret it some other way.\n(Verses 1 through 3) Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for He hath torn, and He will heal us: He hath smitten, and He will bind us up. After two days will He revive us: In the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and the former rain unto the earth.\nNo doubt this chapter sets forth the final restoration of Israel and Judah . But, like so many of the other prophecies, it also seems to speak of the coming of the Christ, in both His first and second advents. These particular verses seem to be a call by those, who have been put through such great chastisement, to their fellows to return to the LORD, Who has thus chastised them. Since, as David so often said, \u201cHis mercy endureth forever,\u201d surely now that we realize that it is He, Who has torn and smitten us, He will also bind us up and heal us. It appears that verse 2 could very well be a prophecy of the crucifixion and resurrection of the Christ, and the fact that in the purpose of God we, in the legal sense were crucified, buried, and resurrected, with Him. Notice that he says, \u201cAfter two days will He revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight.\u201d Was this not, effectively, exactly what He did? Our Lord Jesus told the Jews that, as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea monster, so He would be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. There has been much argument about whether, as the gospel records are interpreted, He was in the grave three days and three nights. But they certainly fit the description given here. It was after two days, and in the third day, as time was then counted, that He arose. And the Apostle Paul explains to us in the first 11 verses of Romans 6, we were, according to the purpose of God, in the Christ in both His death and resurrection. Our Lord also told the Jews, \u201cIf ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.\u201d (John 8:31-32) Here we have almost the same message in different words. \u201cThen shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD.\u201d Only those who follow on are His true disciples. And only they shall know the LORD. As is so often clearly shown in the word of God, the following on is not the means of our knowing the LORD, or of being His disciples indeed. But it does identify those who are His disciples. And to those who are His disciples indeed His coming is with the same refreshing effect as the rain upon the earth. So also, no doubt, will be His return when He will re-gather and restore Jerusalem , Judah , and Israel . That will be a day of great refreshing unto all of His people.\n(Verses 4 through 7) O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah , what shall I do unto thee? For your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away. Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth. For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against Me.\nThus the LORD considers the situation of both Israel and Judah . Any good that they ever attempt is like a morning cloud, or the dew. It soon vanishes away, leaving them with the same evil thoughts and ways that have prevailed with them for so long. He has sent unto them the prophets to tell them of their sins. He has even slain many of them. But they would not repent. So the judgments He has prepared for them are as sure as the light that goes forth. It will be poured out upon them just as He has told them. Verse 6 declares the principle, which our Lord told the Jews that they did not know the meaning of. He said that if they had, they \u201cwould not have condemned the guiltless.\u201d Samuel also declares it to Saul in I Kings 15: 22-23. \u201cHath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is iniquity and idolatry.\u201d But the men of Israel and Judah , just as do other wicked men, have transgressed His covenant, and dealt treacherously, or deceitfully against Him. It is for this that He will bring all this desolation and destruction upon them.\n(Verses 8 through 11) Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood. And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness. I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel : there is the whoredom of Ephraim , Israel is defiled. Also, O Judah, He hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of My people.\nIt seems that Gilead was a city known in Israel as a place of healing. Jeremiah 8:22 says, \u201cIs there no balm in Gilead ; is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?\u201d But instead of a city of healing, she is now a city of them that work iniquity, and is covered with blood. Even the priests agree to commit murder, apparently to keep others from finding out what lewdness they practice. The \u201cwhoredom,\u201d or idolatry, of Ephraim ( Israel ) is so great that she is completely defiled. So the judgments decreed are sure to come. There seems to be, in verse 11, a promise of the return of Judah from the Babylonian captivity that is to come upon them. At the time of the return of the LORD\u2019S people there is a harvest set for Judah . Or this may look beyond the return from the Babylonian captivity, even to the final restoration of Israel . It will take place when the LORD returns the captivity of His people.\n(Verses 1 through 4) When I would have healed Israel , then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria : for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without. And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before My face. They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies. They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.\nThis is very much in keeping with what Jesus said to Jerusalem , as He wept over her. \u201cO Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!\u201d The Lord had many times sent prophets to Israel to warn them that if they did not mend their ways there would be serious consequences to pay. But at every warning some new sin was found among them. Now they have so completely turned away from the LORD that He will no longer spare them. The judgment He has declared must be administered. They have become a land of wickedness, fully engaged in lying, stealing, robbing, and murdering. They have become so accustomed to such that they do not even consider that He remembers all their wickedness. As the modern expression has it, \u201cthey are in His face\u201d with all their evil ways and deeds. Their king is so wicked that their wickedness makes him glad, and their lies please their princes. They are all adulterers so inflamed by their passions that they are like an oven that the baker has preheated while he waits for his dough to be properly leavened.\n(Verses 5 through 10) In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners. For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire. They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto Me. Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned. Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth it not. And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek Him for all this.\nThe princes, or advisers of the king, have gotten him drunk on wine, so that he is not in condition to make decisions that would be in the best interest of the people. The result is that he has stretched out his hand, or has taken part, with those who scorn the warnings of the LORD. And all of them are constantly inflamed, \u201chot as an oven.\u201d Therefore they have devoured, or destroyed, their judges, and all the kings they have ever had that attempted to lead them rightly, have fallen. They are no longer here to guide them. Therefore \u201cthere is none among them that calleth unto Me.\u201d What a terrible condition in which a nation can find itself! As we listen to the daily reports of the situation of our own nation, we are made to wonder, \u201cAre we far behind them in our wickedness?\u201d Ephraim, or Israel , \u201chas mixed himself among the people.\u201d That is, there is no difference between the officials and the people. All alike have forsaken the LORD. A \u201ccake unturned\u201d is burned on one side, and raw on the other, utterly unfit for anything. And that is Israel \u2019s condition. His strength has been devoured by strangers, his hair is turning gray, showing that he is getting old and feeble; and he doesn\u2019t even know it. In such a condition, his pride is a witness against him. It testifies to his face; but he doesn\u2019t believe it. And in this condition, none of them will even try to return to the LORD their God, nor seek Him. They are in a hopeless condition indeed.\n(Verses 11 through 16) Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt , they go to Assyria . When they shall go, I will spread My net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard. Woe unto them! For they have fled from Me: destruction unto them! Because they have transgressed against Me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against Me. And they have not cried unto Me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against Me. Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against Me. They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt .\nNo doubt, verse 11 is a reference to the fact that Israel was attempting to play Egypt against Assyria, and Assyria against Egypt , in the hope of gaining protection from one against the other. The LORD declared that this would not be profitable to Israel . And it was not. Assyria overcame them, and took them away captive, just as the LORD said. He pronounced destruction against them for their failure to seek help from Him. He it was, Who redeemed them. This redemption has no reference to the redemption and salvation found in the Christ, but to His redeeming them out of Egypt by the hand of Moses. They had often been told of this great work of the LORD. But in their present distress, they sought help from man instead of the LORD. In this they imagined mischief against Him. That is, they imagined that He was no longer able to deliver them. So they turned to others for help. This very much reminds us of those today, who say that, if the Lord, or His apostles were here to day, they would teach quite differently from what is written in the New Testament. They say that, what was taught then is out of date, and will not work in the modern age. So they seek to find answers in the philosophy of men instead of in the word of God. Is this not the same principle the LORD sets forth here? He says, \u201cThey return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt .\u201d Since they do not return to the most High, they are like a bow that will not shoot straight. It is worthless; and so are they. Their princes, or leaders, shall be slain by the sword for the rage of their tongue. And this shall bring ridicule upon them in the land of Egypt . One of the very nations upon whom they are depending for help will only hold them in derision. What do you suppose He will do to these of our day who are following this same practice?\n(Verses 1 through 4) Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed My covenant, and trespassed against My law. Israel shall cry unto Me, My God, we know thee. Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him. They have set up kings, but not by Me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.\nSince the trumpet was the instrument used to sound an alarm and summon to the battle, the call of, \u201cSet the trumpet to thy mouth,\u201d is the command to prepare for the battle. That is, the delay is over. It is now time for the judgments already determined to be meted out. \u201cHe shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD.\u201d Of course, the eagle is one of the largest birds of prey, and it also is very swift in flight. So this declares that the trouble that is coming upon \u201cthe house of the LORD,\u201d or upon Israel , is great, and that it will come swiftly. The reason for its coming is that they of Israel have transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and have trespassed against His law. The punishment that is coming is so great that \u201c Israel shall cry unto Me, My God, we know Thee.\u201d This cry, instead of showing true repentance, is more in keeping with a saying often heard among combat veterans, \u201cThere are no atheists in foxholes.\u201d And it simply means that in their suffering, they are so greatly frightened that they call upon the very God they have so lately forsaken. Now the LORD tells what they have done that has brought this upon them. \u201c Israel hath cast off the thing that is good _ _ _ They have set up kings, but not by Me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made themselves idols.\u201d These are the things the LORD cites against them. Looking all the way back to the time of the Prophet Samuel, we see that Israel did indeed cast off the thing that is good, in that they no longer wanted the LORD to rule over them by His judges and prophets; but they thought they had to have a king, so that they would be like other nations. This, the LORD granted to them. And from that time on to the time of Hosea, there had been a succession of kings. Although many of them would not follow the LORD, but not only sinned themselves, but also caused Israel to sin. In addition to this they made and worshipped idols, instead of trying to follow the commandments of the God, Who had so graciously delivered them from the bondage of Egypt , led them to the land of Canaan , and built them into a great nation. Because they have done all these evils, the LORD says, \u201cThe enemy shall pursue him,\u201d and they shall for this be cut off.\n(Verses 5 through 7) Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; Mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency? For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces. For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud thereof shall yield no meal: if so be that it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.\nHere the LORD turns to the \u201ccalf of Samaria .\u201d It will be remembered that when the kingdom was split between Jeroboam and Rehoboam after the death of Solomon, that Jeroboam the king of Israel made two golden calves, and set them up as gods for Israel to worship instead of going up to Jerusalem to worship the LORD at the temple. The golden calves continued to be a snare to Israel , even to Hosea\u2019s day. So the calf of Samaria had been the outstanding sin of Israel , and had therefore cut them off, and kindled the anger of the LORD against them. The question, \u201cHow long will it be ere they attain to innocency?\u201d Is only another way of saying, \u201cThey will never become innocent.\u201d Their sin will continue to remain upon them. Therefore this great punishment is not to be avoided. He then sets forth a principle that we today should also remember. \u201cFor from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God.\u201d This will apply to much more that that golden calf. If it is something made by man, it cannot be God. Therefore we are not to ascribe to it any power of either good or evil. It can do nothing. Although king Jeroboam had it made, it was still from Israel , not just from the king. They were all guilty. But the LORD says that, that calf shall be broken in pieces. We may not have a golden calf. But whatever we have that we put before God will also be broken in pieces. Such things amount to nothing more than sowing, or planting, the wind. There will be no harvest. If there were a harvest, strangers would devour it. And that is exactly what was about to come upon Israel .\n(Verses 8 through 14) Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure. For they are gone up to Assyria , a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers. Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes. Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin. I have written to him the great things of My law, but they were counted as a strange thing. They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of Mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will He remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt . For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.\nAlthough at the moment of Hosea\u2019s prophecy Israel was not swallowed up, the time was so short until that would be literally true, and it had been determined by the LORD, that he could speak of it as already done. Israel was shortly to be carried away to Assyria . There he would be as much alone as would be a wild ass that someone has captured, and is keeping in captivity. He has been trying to hire both Assyria and Egypt , each to help him against the other. And both of them know about it. Therefore he will receive no help from either. His attempt to \u201chire lovers,\u201d has completely failed. So now the LORD will gather them, and cause them to have a little sorrow \u201cfor the burden of the king of princes.\u201d This seems to mean that they will no longer have the privilege of choosing their princes or their kings, since the LORD is going to gather them into the captivity of the Assyrians. This is to be brought upon them because of the altars they have made, at which to worship their idols. The LORD has \u201cwritten to him the great things of His law.\u201d But he has considered them as a strange thing. That is, he has refused to even consider them. They offer many sacrifices, claiming to be worshipping the LORD. But these offerings are not acceptable to Him. He will, therefore, remember their iniquity, in the sense of punishing it, and He will visit their sins. As a result, they shall return to Egypt . During the Assyrian campaign against them, many from Israel did go to Egypt . And many were carried to Assyria . Although Israel put on a great show of worshipping God, and built many temples, they forgot their Maker. And that was their downfall. Judah built many fenced cities. But the LORD said, \u201cI will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.\u201d So both Israel and Judah were to receive great chastisement for their sins. As we look around today at the many great church buildings, \u201ctemples,\u201d and see the abandonment with which the present day society is going into all manner of evil, we have to wonder, \u201cAre we not walking in Israel \u2019s shoes, even now?\u201d If so, what can we expect? Can the LORD not see us as well today as He did Israel in that day? Certainly we too should take heed to His word.\n(Verses 1 through 4) Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a-whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor. The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her. They shall not dwell in the LORD\u2019S land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt , and they shall eat unclean things in Assyria . They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto Him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.\nHosea has often mixed his use of \u201c Israel ,\u201d \u201cEphraim,\u201d \u201che,\u201d and \u201cthey,\u201d when referring to the same people, which may have given some a little trouble in knowing exactly of whom he speaks. However, in this passage, he only uses \u201c Israel ,\u201d \u201cEphraim,\u201d and \u201cthey.\u201d Of course, these all mean \u201cthe people of Israel .\u201d The first thing said in this chapter is a command to the people of Israel . The LORD tells them to not rejoice as other people. The reason is that they have sinned, and are about to receive chastisement for their sins. It is not a proper time for rejoicing, but rather one for mourning. There will not be left unto them either bread or wine sufficient to sustain them. And they are to be driven out of the LORD\u2019S land. That is, the land, which the LORD gave them when He led them out of Egypt , and settled them in Canaan , is to be taken from them. Part of them shall return to Egypt , while the remainder shall be taken to Assyria . He does not tell them, at this point, how long they will be thus scattered. But in other places He does say that it will not be forever. At His time, He shall re-gather them, and restore the glory of the kingdom. Now, however, He is only telling them how great will be this dispersion and the troubles attendant upon it. While in this time of chastisement they will be deprived of even the opportunity to make their offerings to the LORD. They are still under this deprivation. True enough Judah was delivered from the great Babylonian captivity, sufficiently that the temple was rebuilt, and the sacrifices restored, so that, at the time our Savior was on earth, they were still offering sacrifices. But Israel was not thus delivered. They are still under this situation. And since 70 AD Judah has also thus suffered. Their soul cannot \u201ccome into the house of the LORD,\u201d because it is no longer there.\n(Verses 5 through 9) What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the LORD? For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles. The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred. The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred in the house of his God. They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore He will remember their iniquity, He will visit their sins.\nSince there will be no temple in which to offer their sacrifices and offerings, what will they do in either the days of their solemnities, or the days of the great feast of the LORD? All these things are gone, because even the temple of the LORD has been destroyed, and the people removed from the land of the LORD. Some of them are in Egypt , where they will also be buried. \u201cThe pleasant places for their silver,\u201d both their homes and their temple, were destroyed, and their cities were laid waste. Nettles and thorns have taken them over. What terrible desolation! The \u201cdays of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come.\u201d That is, this is the time of the meting out of judgment for the sins of Israel . And Israel shall know it. They will not have to wonder what is the cause of their suffering. The LORD will teach them the cause. Even their prophet is a fool, or without understanding. And the spiritual man has been made mad, or insane, for the multitude of the sins and great hatred of Israel . They had shown their hatred of God by forsaking Him, and following idols. There was a time when the watchman of Ephraim, or Israel , was with God. But even the prophet is unto Israel as the net of the fowler in all his ways. That is, they try to avoid it as a bird would the net of the fowler. They are afraid of it. And though he is in the house of his God, they hate him. They have deeply corrupted themselves. But the LORD will remember their sins, and He will bring upon them the proper punishment.\n(Verses 10 through 13) I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved. As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception. Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them! Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.\nHere the LORD reminds Israel of His love and care for them, even from the beginning. He was as pleased with them, when He found them, as one would be to find grapes in the wilderness, or desert; or as one finding the first ripe figs on a fig tree that was bearing for the first time. In short, when He chose Israel , He loved them exceedingly. Remember how He wrought, by plagues, upon Egypt , to make them set His people free. He even slew the firstborn of both man and beast throughout Egypt . But at Baal-peor , Israel turned aside after the doctrine of Balaam, and committed horrible sins. Although He does not recount them, there are many more sins of Israel , not only in the wilderness, but also after they were established in The Promised Land, and even down to the time of this prophecy. For all of these things all glory shall depart from Israel like a bird flies away. There will be few children born to them. And those that are will be taken away by death, many even by being murdered. They will no more be in that pleasant place, in which they have been planted. When the LORD departs from them, woe shall certainly overtake them.\n(Verses 14 through 17) Give them, O LORD: what wilt Thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of Mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters. Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb. My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto Him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.\nHosea says, \u201cGive them, O LORD.\u201d then it appears that he is momentarily at a loss as to what he would ask the LORD to give them. Then, in keeping with what the LORD has already said in verses 11 and 12, he says, \u201cGive them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.\u201d Under such conditions as this, there will be little, if any, continuation of their people. Then the LORD declares that it is for the wickedness of Ephraim, or Israel , that He hated them, and that He will drive them out of the pleasant land wherein He had planted them. Although He says, \u201cI will love them no more,\u201d He does not say that this condition will be forever. Because all their princes, or leaders, are always fomenting revolt, and leading them away from Him, He has smitten Ephraim, and will even slay their children. In verse 17, Hosea declares that, because they did not listen to Him, God will cast them away, and make them to wander among the nations. This, they are still doing, and will until the LORD\u2019S appointed time of restoration of them.\n(Verses 1 through 4) Israel is an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath increased the altars: according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images. Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: He shall break down their altars, He shall spoil their images. For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us? They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.\nThis sets forth the condition in which Israel finds himself, and the reason for his being in such a situation. He is an empty vine. That is, he is a vine without fruit. When he did bring forth fruit, he did it for himself. He never gave thought to the fact that his fruit was the blessing of the LORD, but \u201cincreased his altars;\u201d not altars to the LORD, but to the many idols of the people around him. The more his land produced, the more he made \u201cgoodly images,\u201d images that he thought to be fine works of art, and which he worshipped as his gods. This, of course, made the hearts of the people to be divided. They were constantly looking from one idol to the other, but never looking to the One true God. So they are found faulty, or at fault. Therefore the LORD shall break down their altars, and destroy their images. Then, and then only, will they realize that the reason they have no king is that they have not feared the LORD their God. And they will understand that a king cannot help them now. Because they have sworn false oaths, and made false covenants, their judgments are coming upon them like hemlock springs up in the furrows of their fields. There is no way to prevent this judgment from overtaking them.\n(Verses 5 through 8) The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Beth-aven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof that rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, because it is departed from it. It shall be also carried unto Assyria for a present for king Jareb: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his counsel. As for Samaria , her king is cut off as the foam upon the water. The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel , shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us, and to the hills, Fall on us.\nSamaria was the capitol of Israel , and \u201cBeth-aven\u201d is \u201cthe house of Aven.\u201d As we see in verse 8, \u201cthe high places of Aven\u201d were \u201cthe sin of Israel .\u201d These high places were the places where the worship of all these idols was carried on. The LORD tells them that \u201cthe calves of Beth-aven\u201d shall bring great fear upon Samaria , such that the inhabitants thereof, together with the priests who have rejoiced over these calves, shall be in great mourning, because all the glory of these idols shall be taken away. Even the calves themselves shall be taken to Assyria as a present to Jareb the king of Assyria . This will bring shame upon Ephraim ( Israel ) and they shall be ashamed of their own counsel. The king of Samaria shall be cut off \u201cas the foam upon the water. He will be no more. All the high places, the places where they worshipped their idols, shall be destroyed, and even thorns and thistles shall grow up on their altars. When these things take place, the people will call upon the mountains and the hills to fall upon them and cover them from the great judgments of the LORD.\n(Verses 9 through 12) O Israel, thou hast sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them. It is My desire that I should chastise them; and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows. And Ephraim is as an heifer that is taught, and loveth to tread out the corn; but I passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods. Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and rain righteousness upon you.\nVerse 9 calls Israel \u2019s attention to an event that is recorded in Judges, chapters 19, 20, and 21. In this account we find that Gibeah was as evil as Sodom was in the day of its overthrow. Gibeah was a city of Benjamin . And because of the wickedness of the inhabitants of Gibeah all the other tribes of Israel were gathered in battle against Benjamin. The people of Gibeah are the ones to whom He refers as \u201cthe children of iniquity.\u201d He says that, although the battle in Gibeah did not \u201covertake,\u201d or more correctly, \u201coverthrow,\u201d them, the Israelites have sinned ever since that day. Surely, they had sinned before that time, but He emphasizes this incident because at that time Israel was doing battle against \u201cthe children of iniquity.\u201d And, apparently, such has never again been the case. The LORD declares that it is His desire only to chastise Israel . And to do this, \u201cthe people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows.\u201d This statement seems to be somewhat obscure. It, perhaps, might refer to the practice of harnessing two animals together to a plow for the breaking of the ground. In such case, they would be bound in two furrows, or side by side. Thus when Israel sets forth to join themselves side by side in facing the crisis that is before them, the people will be gathered against them. And in this instance, \u201cthe people\u201d refers not to the people of Israel , but to their enemies.\nTo give a different perspective of this we quote verses 9 through 11 from The New English Bible.\nSince the day of Gibeah Israel has sinned;\nthere they took their stand in rebellion.\nShall not war overtake them in Gibeah?\nI have come against the rebels to chastise them,\nand the peoples shall mass against them\nin hordes for their two deeds of shame.\nEphraim is like a heifer broken in, which loves to thresh corn,\nacross whose fair neck I have laid a yoke.\nI have harnessed Ephraim to the pole that he may plough,\nThat Jacob may harrow his land.\nObviously, there seems to be some differences between this and the KJV translation. Since I have no expertise in the Hebrew Language, I shall not attempt to say which is correct.\nVerse 12 is the LORD\u2019S call to Israel , in view of the judgment that He has determined for them. His message is, \u201cSow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come.\u201d This call seems to be clear enough. The only way to \u201csow to yourselves in righteousness,\u201d is to set yourselves to do righteous works. Someone will surely say, \u201cBut we cannot of ourselves do righteous works.\u201d No doubt, that is true. But do you believe that the LORD will tell you to do something without giving you the ability to do it? If so, you have a very erroneous picture of the LORD in your mind. When He gives us a commandment, He provides the ability to fulfill that order. The second command, \u201cReap in mercy,\u201d is the automatic follow-up of the first. Just as surely as we sow to ourselves in righteousness, we shall reap in mercy. Then He says, \u201cBreak up your fallow ground.\u201d Fallow ground is that ground which has been left idle for a while, just as we often let a field lie idle for a time. Israel was very well acquainted with this. For the LORD had commanded them to let their fields lie idle every seventh year. However, the fallow ground to which He refers here, is the working of righteousness, which they had left idle since the day of Gibeah. A long time indeed! How long have we left it idle? \u201cFor it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and rain righteousness upon you.\u201d The reason for obeying His commands is that now is the time to seek the LORD. And do not seek Him for a little while, and quit, thinking that it is useless to put forth the effort. Instead, continue to seek Him till He comes, and showers you with righteousness. Just as surely as He calls upon us to seek Him, and we obey that command, He will \u201crain righteousness\u201d upon us. That is His promise; and it cannot fail.\n(Verses 13 through 15) Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children. So shall Beth-el do unto you because of your great wickedness: in a morning shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off.\nAgain the LORD reminds Israel of what they have done. As is always the case, when one cultivates wickedness, the harvest he will reap from it is more iniquity. Therefore they have fed themselves with the fruit of lies. They did this because they trusted in their own way, in the power of man, \u201cthe multitude of their mighty men.\u201d However they will find that their mighty men are not sufficient to take care of them. But all their \u201cfortresses shall be destroyed, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle.\u201d The reference to Shalman seems slightly unclear, since this is the only reference to Shalman that we can find in the scriptures. One would think that he might be Shalmanezer, the king of Assyria . But his campaign against Israel was during the reign of Ahaz king of Judah , who is also one of the kings under whose reign Hosea received his prophecy. And the event here mentioned seems to have been somewhat earlier. Nevertheless, Shalman was, evidently, a man of great ferocity. He spared none, not even mother or child. So the destruction against Israel will be great. It will be done because of the great wickedness of Israel . And \u201cin a morning,\u201d that is, early \u201cshall the king of Israel be cut off.\u201d\n(Verses 1 through 4) When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called My Son out of Egypt . As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. I taught Ephraim to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.\nVerse 1 is both historic and prophetic. No doubt, its historic value is all we would ever have considered concerning it had not the Holy Ghost inspired Matthew to mention its prophetic value. We shall look first at its meaning as a prophecy. In order to better understand it we must first consider one word in it as key to the entire verse. Although Israel is the name of the grandson of Abraham, who was the \u201cfriend of God,\u201d and from whom the Israelites all count their lineage, we should consider why this name was given to him, and what the name means. In Genesis 32:24-29 is given the account of an experience of Jacob. And it was at this time that his name was changed to Israel . Verse 28 says, \u201cAnd he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel , for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.\u201d There seem to be many interpretations of the name, \u201c Israel .\u201d In the center column references in some Bibles it is said to mean \u201cPrince of God,\u201d while in others \u201cHe who wrestles with God,\u201d or \u201cGod rules.\u201d However, according to the statement of the angel to Jacob, it appears that the best reading would be \u201cPrince.\u201d Therefore, by making this substitution, we have, in the present text, \u201cWhen the Prince was a child, then I loved Him, and called My Son out of Egypt .\u201d See Matthew 2:15 for its fulfillment.\nWhen we consider this statement as history, we can see its fulfillment in Exodus, particularly in Chapters 3 through 15. In calling Israel out of Egypt , the LORD wrought many miracles, and showed His mighty power. This He continued to do all through the wilderness, and even after He had settled Israel in the Promised Land. But, \u201cAs they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.\u201d The first \u201cthey\u201d in this statement surely refers to the idols of the land; the second, to the Israelites; and the third, to the wonderful works God had wrought for Israel , in delivering them from the bondage of Egypt . So instead off showing either love or respect for the God, Who had so wonderfully delivered them, they sacrificed to Baalim, the idol gods of the heathen around them, and burned incense to graven images. This has ever been the way of man. He seems to prefer worshipping something his own hands have made rather than worshipping the great God of heaven and earth, Who is the source of everything good that he has ever had, has now, or ever will have. In spite of all his boasting of his great wisdom, what a foolish creature is man! The LORD says, \u201cI taught Ephraim to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.\u201d As we take a baby by his arms, or hands, and help him to maintain his balance so that he can walk, so did the LORD to Ephraim, or Israel . But in spite of this they did not realize that it was He, Who healed them. \u201cI drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.\u201d Although the LORD taught them to walk, drew them with bands of love, took them out of bondage, and provided food for them, they still, as He said above, \u201csacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images,\u201d instead of worshipping Him.\n(Verses 5 through 8) He shall not return into Egypt , but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return. And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels. And My people are bent on backsliding from Me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt Him. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I deliver thee, Israel ? how shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? Mine heart is turned within Me, My repentings are kindled together.\nThe statement, \u201cHe shall not return into Egypt ,\u201d does not mean that none of Israel would return into Egypt . For indeed some of them did. But this they did on their own. They were not carried there as captives. Their captivity was by the king of Assyria and his army. The reason for this is that \u201cthey refused to return.\u201d That is, they refused to return to the LORD, and continued on in their idolatries. Therefore the sword did consume their cities. And it was because of their own counsels, or decisions. The LORD says, \u201cMy people are bent to backsliding from Me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt Him.\u201d Israel had such an inclination to backslide from Him that, if someone called them to the most High, none would exalt Him. They would all turn away to their idols. In spite of this great sin of Israel , the LORD, in verse 8, laments the fact that He must give them up to punishment. But make no mistake about it. He is not a failure. He is not giving them up as a lost cause, as many try to convince us today that He has to do for men, because He has done all He can for them, and they just will not accept Him. The great difference is that in the great work of salvation He has never offered Himself to man. His offering was made to the Father, Who accepted that sacrifice, and showed His approval of it by raising our Lord Jesus from the dead. So He \u201chath by one offering perfected forever them that are sanctified.\u201d In the present instance, He is only giving up Israel to punishment for their disobedience.\n(Verses 9 through 12) I will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city. They shall walk after the LORD: He shall roar like a lion: when He shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west. They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt , and as a dove out of the land of Assyria : and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD. Ephraim compasseth Me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.\nIn spite of all the sins of Israel , the LORD declares that He will not execute the fierceness of His wrath against them. He will not \u201creturn to destroy\u201d them. The reason for His sparing them is not that they have not done enough evil to deserve it, and neither is it because they have repented of the evils they have done. It is that He is God, and not man. He is the Holy One in the midst of them. And He \u201cwill not enter into the city.\u201d That is, to destroy it. His promise is that He will never utterly destroy Israel , regardless of the present day claim that He has forever cast them off, and given all the promises made to them to the gospel church. Actually, His faithfulness to the promises He has made to them is the basis upon which we can expect Him to also be faithful to those made to the gospel church. He declares that \u201cthey shall walk after the LORD.\u201d Surely, this does not mean that He is going to immediately turn them away from their sins, and cause them to follow Him. He will send upon them the very punishment He has declared. But at His time He shall cause them to walk after Him. He will also roar like a lion, and the children shall tremble from the west. That is, those who have fled to Egypt , the country west of Israel , shall tremble. Trembling is usually a sign of fear. So this is a declaration that they shall be made to fear the LORD. Some might try to \u201cspiritualize\u201d this, and interpret it to have something to do with the work of our Lord Jesus in the great work of salvation. But, at that time, He did not roar as a lion. Instead, He came as a lamb. For He is \u201cthe Lamb of God, That taketh away the sin of the world.\u201d Nevertheless, when He shall return, He will come as a lion, \u201cthe Lion of the tribe of Judah .\u201d Then, indeed He shall roar. Then \u201c\u2019they shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt , and as a dove out of the land of Assyria : and I will place them in their houses,\u2019 saith the LORD.\u201d Then the LORD turns back to the present situation, and says, \u201cEphraim compasseth Me with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet rules with God, and is faithful with the saints.\u201d Thus He signifies that the time for Israel \u2019s judgment is at hand. But Judah has not yet dropped to the level that calls for chastisement upon her. And history shows that Judah was spared about 134 years after Israel was taken captive, and dispersed by the Assyrians.\n(Verses 1 and 2) Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation, and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt . The LORD hath also a controversy with Judah , and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will He recompense him.\nThe LORD turns again to His charges against Israel . He says that Ephraim is not feeding upon solid food, but upon the east wind. Since He calls it the \u201ceast wind,\u201d there may be here some reference to the fact that the people of the east were noted for their many idol gods, as well as for their \u201cmystery cults\u201d in their religions. And these are no more beneficial than would be the effort to subsist upon the east wind as food. Whatever the significance, or lack thereof, it only increases the lies and desolation that have already done so much damage to Israel . In their deceit they have made a covenant with Assyria, and at the same time, carried oil (olive oil) to Egypt , for the purpose of bribing the Egyptians to help them against the Assyrians, with whom they made the covenant. So it is easy to see just how deceitful they are. Although at the end of the previous chapter, He said, \u201c Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints,\u201d He still has a controversy with Judah . He does not say that He is ready to punish Judah . But the punishment of Israel is already established. And it will be according to his ways.\n(Verses 3 through 6) He took his brother by the heel in the womb, and by his strength he had power with God: yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept and made supplication unto him: he found Him in Beth-el, and there he spake with us; even the LORD God of hosts; the LORD is his memorial. Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and wait on thy God continually.\nIn verse 3 the reference is to the birth of Esau and Jacob, the account of which is given in Genesis 25:24-26. Verse 4 takes us again to Jacob\u2019s wrestling with the angel, as recorded in Genesis 32: 24-29. There he found God, not that God was ever lost, nor that He is not everywhere, but simply that Jacob had no understanding of this fact until that occasion. Then he named the place \u201cBeth-el,\u201d the house of God. It is from that place and that experience that Jacob spoke to them, and even to us today. Because there he was made aware of the omnipresence of God.. So Jacob\u2019s memorial is none other than the LORD God of hosts, Himself. Since this is true, the LORD commands Israel , \u201cTurn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and wait on thy God continually.\u201d And this command is also to us today, as well as to Israel in that day.\n(Verses 7 through 10) He is a merchant, the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loveth to oppress. And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance: in all my labors they shall find none iniquity in me that were sin. And I that am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast. I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.\nAgain the LORD tells us of the sin of Ephraim, or Israel . He is a dishonest merchant, who has become rich, and loves to oppress those not so fortunate as he. Yet he thinks that he has his sin so well concealed that it cannot be discovered. In spite of this the Lord, Who has been his God from the time of his being led out of Egypt , makes a promise to him. That promise is, \u201cI will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast,\u201d the Feast of Tabernacles. Not only does He now make this promise, but He has also made the same declarations by the prophets through the visions and similitudes they were given in their ministry.\n(Verses 11 through 14) Is there iniquity in Gilead ? Surely they are vanity: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal; yea, their altars are heaps in the furrows of the fields. And Jacob fled into the country of Syria , and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep. And by a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt , and by a prophet he was preserved. Ephraim provoked Him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood upon him, and his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.\nSince Gilead is a place that was known for its healing, He asks the question, \u201cIs there iniquity in Gilead ?\u201d There must be, for there is no more healing there. So He answers His own question. \u201cSurely they are vanity.\u201d Since iniquity is found there, Gilead is worthless. Gilgal is one of the places where much idol worship was carried on. They offered bullocks for sacrifice. And they had so many altars to the idol gods that, they even built them in the furrows of their fields. This is the LORD\u2019S appraisal of Israel . Then He recounts very briefly Israel \u2019s history, beginning with his fleeing for fear of his brother Esau. He went to the land of Syria , and there kept sheep for Laban the father of his two wives, Leah and Rachel. Then He tells that it was He, Who brought Israel out of Egypt by the hand of His prophet Moses. In spite of all this, Ephraim, or Israel , provoked Him to anger most bitterly. And because of this He will leave his blood upon him. That is, He will judge him worthy of the punishment that is to come. He has brought it upon himself. \u201cAnd his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.\u201d That is, his Master shall chastise him for this reproach.\n(Verses 1 through 4) When Ephraim spake trembling, he exalted himself in Israel ; but when he offended in Baal, he died. And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, and idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves. Therefore they shall be as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the floor, and the smoke out of the chimney. Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt , and thou shalt know no god but Me: for there is no savior beside Me.\nWhen Ephraim feared the LORD, and therefore was fearful, and was careful in his speech, he was highly regarded in Israel . The people listened to him, and heeded his counsel. But when he turned aside after other gods, he died, insofar as his influence for good is concerned. He was no longer the wise man he had been considered. How often it is found to be that way even today! Just a few years ago there seemed to be a rash of this very thing in this country. Men, who had by many been considered as great men of God, turned to sin in such a manner that it could not be overlooked. Their followers were so disappointed in them that they felt they had to renounce them. And because of their fall, many blasphemed the Lord and everything pertaining to Him. So it has always been when people put their trust in men instead of the LORD. \u201cAnd now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, and idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, \u2018Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.\u2019\u201d This description of Israel is literally true. For they did make images, and worship idols. In our present situation, it may be that the people did not turn to graven images; but they did turn to the things of the world, and set their hearts upon them, with the thought that if these \u201cgreat Christian leaders\u201d could do these things, certainly so could they. Some will surely say, \u201cThat is what they wanted to do all the time.\u201d And that may be true. But the fact remains that the fall of leaders encourages sinners. But this is no excuse. For He says, \u201cTherefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney.\u201d Sometimes we see a few clouds in the early morning, that vanish away as soon as the sun gets up enough to heat up the atmosphere. And certainly we have seen a whirlwind pick up chaff, and take it away suddenly. And as the smoke arises from the chimney it quickly spreads out, and fades away. This is the lot of Israel because of their sins. And this is the lot of those who worship idols. This may not come immediately upon them, but it is sure, and will come at the LORD\u2019S time. As the LORD continues, He says, \u201cYet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt , and thou shalt know no god but Me: for there is no savior beside Me.\u201d This does not mean that the LORD came from Egypt , but that He has been their God since He brought them out of Egypt . He is the One, Who has taken care of them all along the way. The second part of this expression is both a command and a statement of fact. He commands them to recognize no other god, for He alone is God, and He alone is a Savior. Beside Him there is none. This is also a promise that at the time appointed of Him, they will be brought to realize that this is true, and will recognize no other. They shall know that He is their only LORD and Savior.\n(Verses 5 through 8) I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought. According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted, therefore have they forgotten Me. Therefore I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe them: I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the caul of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.\nNotice how He turns back and forth from what He has done for them to what He will do because they have turned away from Him. He reminds them of His care for them when they were wandering in the wilderness. In spite of His goodness to them they have turned away from Him, to serve and worship other gods. Because of this He will bring upon them great destruction, as if a wild beast, such as a lion, a leopard, or a bear, should come upon them. They shall not escape.\n(Verses 9 through 14) O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in Me is thine help. I will be thy King: where is any other that may save thee in all thy cities? And thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes? I gave thee a king in Mine anger, and I took him away in My wrath. The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is hid. The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he is an unwise son: for he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children. I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from Mine eyes.\nThe LORD sums the matter up in this statement, \u201cO Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in Me is thy help.\u201d All the desolation that shall come upon Israel has been brought by the sins of Israel . No one else is to be blamed for it. Yet, in spite of all this, in God alone is help for them. And this is really a promise of help, not just an invitation for them to come to Him for help, but a promise that He will help them without fail. He reminds them that He was not pleased with them when they rejected the judges He had given them, and desired a king. Yet, in His anger He gave them the king they wanted. But in His wrath He has taken him away. This taking away of the king has no reference to His taking the kingdom from Saul, and giving it to David. Rather, it is His bringing the kingdom to an end by the Assyrian captivity that is to come. \u201cThe iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is hid.\u201d This is not a reference to anything Ephraim has done, or may do, to try to hide his sin. If it were, the LORD would have declared the futility of such effort. Instead it is a declaration that He, the LORD, has put aside that sin, and hidden it Himself. Of course, as is true of so many prophecies, it is spoken in the present tense, not because it has already been brought to pass, but because in the mind of God it is already purposed, and therefore is as sure as if already done. Then He tells us that in the meantime the sorrows of a travailing woman shall be upon him. Further, he is said to be, not a lost sinner, but \u201can unwise son.\u201d He will not be able to stay long enough \u201cin the place of the breaking forth of children\u201d to increase greatly in number. Instead he shall be reduced to a remnant. But he will still remain. And the LORD shall \u201cransom them from the power of the grave; \u201c and redeem them from death. A study of the thirty-seventh chapter of Ezekiel\u2019s prophecy, especially verses 20 through 28, will convince any serious reader that this is a promise of re-gathering Israel from all the places on earth where they have been dispersed, and restoring them to Jerusalem and the land of Israel . Not only so, but \u201crepentance shall be hid from Mine eyes.\u201d He will not repent of His promise, nor will He change it, or abandon it. It shall be fulfilled at His appointed time.\n(Verses 15 and 16) Though he be fruitful among his brethren, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD shall come up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: He shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant vessels. Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child ripped up.\nAgain, actually for the last time, we go back to the terrible woes that shall be brought upon Israel from the time of the Assyrian captivity until the LORD\u2019S restoration of them. Although Ephraim might have been fruitful among his brethren, he shall be diminished so that there will be only a remnant left, as indeed it will also be with all Israel . During this great time of desolation, the LORD will take away the treasure of all pleasant vessels. That is, there will be little in which Israel can rejoice. And thus we see her today. They have no temple, and they are not able to offer sacrifices, nor observe their holy days as before the dispersion.. Their land, and all their cities , were laid waste, and their people killed. Only in the past fifty years does there seem to be for them a little hope. And all the nations of the world seem to be trying to take even that away from them.\n(Verses 1 through 3) O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto Him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips. Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in Thee the fatherless findeth mercy.\nThis is a call to Israel for their return to the LORD their God. The reason for their affliction is that they have sinned, and their iniquity is what has brought them down. This call they will heed when the LORD restores them to the land, which He gave in perpetuity to Abraham and his seed after him. Not only are they instructed to return to the LORD their God, but they are even instructed how to pray unto Him. They are to beg that He take away their iniquity, and receive them graciously. When He does this, they will \u201crender the calves of their lips.\u201d This is not a reference to the golden calves Jeroboam had made and set up for them to worship, but to the calves, or bullocks, they had offered, under the law, as sacrifices to God. Instead of burnt offerings, they will offer praise to the LORD their God. Never again will they depend upon their neighbors, nor upon the idols for help, but upon the living God, in Whom the fatherless find mercy.\n(Verses 4 through 9) I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for Mine anger is turned away from him. I will be as the dew unto Israel : he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon . His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon . They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow up as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon . Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From Me is thy fruit found. Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? For the ways of the LORD are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.\nThis is the LORD\u2019S promise to Israel in the day of their restoration. It seems to be so clearly set forth that it would be impossible to comment upon it without running the risk of doing damage to it. He declares that He will Himself heal their backsliding, and love them freely. He is angry with them no more. As we consider the wonderful blessings He will at that time bestow upon them, it seems that we can add nothing to it. And, surely, we do not wish to take anything from it. Those to whom the LORD has given wisdom shall understand these things, and the prudent shall know them. Certainly, the LORD\u2019S ways are always right. That, none can deny. And in them shall the just always walk. The transgressors can not do so, but fall by their own transgression.",

        "raw_content": "City of Dayle with Ryan Williamson\nWhen: Friday, April 3, 9 p.m.\nMore: cityofdayle.com\nFrom country to City of Dayle\nNatalie Turgeon shifts sound with new project\nA few weeks into the New Year, Natalie Turgeon asked her Facebook followers to like a new page. A click-through led to a video of Turgeon and musical partner John Cunningham announcing a new project: City of Dayle. They played \u201cLove Me,\u201d a stark acoustic ballad recalling early Sheryl Crow. Every Tuesday since, the duo has debuted another song, all but one an original, each a musical departure.\nFans of the Natalie Turgeon Band shouldn\u2019t be surprised. The group gained initial prominence with 2011\u2019s \u201cCountry-ish,\u201d a song that also served as a statement. Though comfortable playing Dolly Parton covers in places like Midnight Rodeo, the Concord singer\u2019s tastes ran beyond country.\nCity of Dayle is a declaration of independence, the two explained in a recent interview.\n\u201cFrom the beginning, the stuff we were writing didn\u2019t fit into the country genre,\u201d Turgeon said. \u201cWe were primarily a cover band and we needed a shift to reflect our identity.\u201d\nCunningham agreed.\n\u201cWe\u2019d be doing this material and just look at each other and say, we\u2019re not feeling it like we should,\u201d he said.\nTheir new approach doesn\u2019t hew to a particular style, and that\u2019s the point.\n\u201cInstead of trying to crowbar it into country, we decided \u2026 just write the music that was ours,\u201d said Cunningham. \u201cWith that said, our sound is indie, but heavily influenced by other genres.\u201d\nIt\u2019s right there in the name, Turgeon implied: \u201cYou think of New York City as a great melting pot, well, I guess that\u2019s what City of Dayle is. The Dayle part has personal meaning, but we really wanted to include our followers in the group name, because it\u2019s for them.\u201d\nA March 7 debut at a benefit for musician Matt Langley in early March went well, Turgeon said.\n\u201cIt felt positive; it\u2019s been good so far,\u201d she said.\nTheir next show is April 3 at Concord\u2019s True Brew Barista, when they\u2019ll share the spotlight with singer-songwriter Ryan Williamson.\n\u201cWe wanted someone who\u2019d fit in with the style of music we\u2019re doing \u2026 a complementary crowd,\u201d said Cunningham of the co-bill choice. \u201cGive Ryan a chance to grow with our fans and vice versa. We\u2019re about supporting the next artist \u2014 that works the best. In order for people to grow, bands have to help each other. Otherwise, it\u2019s impossible.\u201d\nPerforming to help Langley with his ongoing medical costs exemplified this urge.\n\u201cWe met Matt when we were getting started some years back at the Red Blazer; he would call us up and have us perform,\u201d Turgeon said. \u201cHe\u2019s really laid back, and he\u2019d selflessly give up his spotlight.\u201d\nPlaying the show led them to write the anthemic \u201cStand Tall\u201d and dedicate it to their friend.\n\u201cNothing\u2019s gonna keep me down/I won\u2019t fear the darkness when it falls,\u201d Turgeon sings of Langley\u2019s ongoing cancer battle.\n\u201cHe\u2019s always positive, that\u2019s who he is,\u201d she said. \u201cHe really inspired us, his attitude, and the next day the song kind of just wrote itself.\u201d\nThe group is presently a duo.\n\u201cWe do intend to have other players,\u201d Turgeon said. For live shows, loops and backing tracks are employed to expand their sound. The recently released video of \u201cBrush It Off\u201d is a good example of this, a Pat Benatar-styled rocker with Turgeon\u2019s keyboards and Cunningham\u2019s slashing guitar licks backed by taped drums and bass.\nThere are plans to employ even more effects down the road.\n\u201cIt opens up a lot of sounds that you could never get live,\u201d Cunningham said. \u201cA string section at True Brew Barista is something you could never do. If you find players who can work with that kind of thing, it\u2019s good for the audience.\u201d\nThe next scheduled appearance after True Brew happens Memorial Day weekend at the Red Door, a Portsmouth nightclub with plenty of indie cachet. Their ballad \u201cEvery Moment\u201d was recently added to Women of Substance Radio, a California-based national podcast, and they\u2019ll soon be on the playlist of WomenInCharg3. The latter is, according to its website, \u201ca music radio station for female indie artist of all genres \u2026 promoting girl power.\u201d\nThough it\u2019s challenging at times, Turgeon and Cunningham continue to release a song a week. DIY equals do it all for the pair, including management.\n\u201cWe write when the music presents itself,\u201d Cunningham said; an EP should arrive later in the year. \u201cRight now we\u2019re booking the shows, prepping the material, we\u2019re really busy in that way. There\u2019s not enough creative time. \u2026 Our plan is to keep on writing as the music inspires us.\u201d",

        "title": "Homeschool Distractions: Curriculum Review: Michael Clay Thompson's Language Arts",
        "raw_content": "Curriculum Review: Michael Clay Thompson's Language Arts\nAfter getting the results of Mika's standardized test results last spring, I finally clued in to why she hated school and cried about it nearly every day. It was very boring to her because I was forcing her to learn things she already knew well. So I set out on a quest to find new curriculum, especially in language arts, her strong subject.\nNow that we've been doing school for two months, I've had a chance to evaluate the curriculum I chose. I can say that I am confident that I chose well. Mika no longer hates school, never cries about it anymore, and is even enthusiastic about school at times. It's been a wonderful change!\nFor language arts, I chose Michael Clay Thompson's curriculum which is designed for gifted students. They have curriculum for grades three through twelve. They offer five areas: grammar, writing, poetry, vocabulary, and practice. I want to write about grammar, writing, and practice in this post because we've completed a majority of it and it's been my favorite part. I'll cover the other two in another post.\nBecause we were new to the curriculum, I chose to start at the beginning and cover two years worth this year. We've completed Grammar Island, are part way through Sentence Island, and have begun Practice Island. They really should be completed in the order I've written them but we've been doing ok with starting Practice Island ahead of schedule.\nGrammar Island was an enjoyable text. It is written in a conversational style with clean, uncluttered pages. Each page has the bare minimum number of words written in a large font. Some words are written in color to emphasize them (ie. all pronouns in blue). Sometimes there is a simple diagram on the page. It really is very uncluttered, minimalist really. The book covers the eight parts of speech (ie. nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, interjections, prepositions, and pronouns), parts of sentences (ie. subjects, predicates, direct objects, indirect objects, and subject complements), phrases (prepositional phrases only this level), and clauses (difference between simple and compound sentences). Each section explains the topic briefly with examples and has a cute little story that illustrates the idea. There is absolutely no repetition.\nSentence Island picks up where Grammar Island leaves off. Written in story form, it tells the tale of a fish named Mud that wants to learn about sentences. He starts off learning about the subject and predicate, followed by the parts of speech, parts of sentences, and subject verb agreement. It's a fun little story.\nAfter reading Grammar Island and Sentence Island, you begin Practice Island. Practice Island is a workbook for putting what has been learned into practice. Each page contains a sentence and four blank lines below it. The student completes a four level analysis on each of the 104 sentences provided. On the top line, they identify which part of speech each word is. On the second line, they go back through the sentence and identify the parts of sentences. The third line is for identifying phrases, if any. Finally, the four line is used for identifying clauses and what kind of sentence it is. I like this kind of analysis, especially since I don't think my daughter would tolerate diagramming well.\nOne of the nice things I like about this program is that at the elementary level, you do not need to be buy both the student and teacher books. The teacher's manual contains the entire student text full size. On most of the pages, there are little bubbles containing extra information or tips, but it doesn't detract from the page. The bulk of the teacher's guide is in the back.\nMy only complaint about the curriculum is that each book is a soft-bound book printed in landscape form. While it works well with the format of the pages, I've found that the books aren't as durable as I would like. The pages and cover get bent up far too easily.\nI'll be buying the Town series (the next level) soon. Once we've gone through it, I'll add my review for that as well. My understanding is that it is quite a step up from the Island series.\nI am looking for a Kindergarten curriculum for my little one. Any recommendations?\nwe are finishing up the preschool program, I saw you mention on your blog, http://ourpreschoolhomeschool.blogspot.com.\nI recently found your blog and enjoy it!\nEclectic Homeschoolers said...\nThanks for the review. I am probably getting this for my son next school year. How much time does it take in your school day? Do you read the classics along with it? Thanks!\nCan you tell me if CVA approved this on their curriculum? Out of your current curriculum listed for both kids, would you mind telling me the things CVA did NOT approve, just so I could have an idea of what they are saying yes and no to. I have quite a few ideas, and don't really know what they will approve. It seems like a lot fo their things come from rainbowresource.com and that has a lot of christian based learning curriculum, so it's a bit confusing! ;-)",

        "raw_content": "In general \u2013 no, that\u2019s usually not how Online Reputation Management works. The only case where that would be true, would be for a very large, national company that is inundated with negative press; literally hundreds of incoming negative articles about their business, due to a scandal perhaps. In that instance, then generating hundreds of links MAY (keyword: MAY) be a strategy to deal with it, but for most cases, the answer is most certainly no.\nFor most cases, a targeted ORM Campaign can solve the problems that any business or individual may face on Google. Driving unwanted search results far down in the rankings so they can no longer cause you or your business any further damage. In certain situations, generating some links as needed may be beneficial, but hundreds upon hundreds of them are usually not necessary; in fact in cases involving individuals usually a small number would be needed; but for businesses and individuals alike, we can design a unique campaign to determine the right approach for your situation.\nFurther, this is also not necessarily the right answer if you\u2019re dealing with SEO (rather than ORM); as in that instance, generating hundreds of links might very well be the right avenue for you. SEO can often be a completely different beast. That\u2019s why anyone with questions should call HopLite right away. We know how to deal with search engine problems so they cause any individual or organization no further trouble, and at an affordable price. Don\u2019t wait \u2013 call HopLite now, find out how we can help you improve your Online Reputation.",

        "raw_content": "Located in the picturesque setting of Elora, Ontario, the Elora Mill Inn is a very dramatic property with spectacular vistas on all sides. The building is almost two centuries old and towers above the Elora Gorge and the Grand River Falls. In its early days it was a grist mill that has been converted to a cozy country inn in the heart of Ontarios Festival Country.\nThe Elora Mill Inn consists of four separate buildings that house 32 tastefully decorated rooms. All of them contain historical reproductions of the furniture commonly used in the 18th century and some have fireplaces. If you are lucky enough to be able to book the room that has a double Jacuzzi tub, you will have a very relaxing vacation indeed. Depending on the building in which your room is located you may just have a breathtaking view of the falls.\nYou can really see the craftsmanship in the architecture of the Elora Mill Inn. The walls are made of quarried stones and are quite thick, which means the window wells are very wide and deep. The rooms located in the main building are the standard rooms containing King or Queen Sized beds. Most have a view of the water. Located in the Granary Building are the Premium rooms with vaulted ceilings, a four-poster King or Queen sized bed, and fireplaces in some room. The suites of this hotel are really unique and some of these have private decks where you can be alone with the view of the water.\nThe dining room of the Elora Mill Inn has a delightful view of the river and the falls. You can see the symbol of the community located in the middle of the waterfall the Tooth of Time. The mouth-watering cuisine consists of local foods, such as the fruits of the orchards and the trout caught in the rivers and streams. Some of the produce is organically grown just for use at the Inn. The wine list features the stellar wines from Ontario and the restaurant has received many awards and accolades for the wines that it serves.\nWhen you stay at the Elora Mill Inn you are in Mennonite country and can therefore visit many farmers markets, quilt shops and craft stores where the unique handmade items will really be the perfect souvenirs to take back home. Visit the Elora Quarry where you will find a genuine swimming hole in what used to be a quarry and it is possible that the stones used to build the mill came from this very place.\nThere are many events that take place in Elora during the summer months which makes the Elora Mill Inn the perfect choice for your accommodations. During July and August the sounds of music ring out from several different venues for a three week period and mid-August is the time of the Fergus Highland Games. The sounds of the pipes will echo through the town and you can take in a variety of unusual athletic games and contests.",

        "raw_content": "Racism is a relic of the past or a real problem nowadays?\n9th November 2018 marks the 80th anniversary of the \u2018Kristallnacht\u2019 pogrom in 1938 in Germany and Austria, turning the discrimination against Jews that started in 1933 to a systematic persecution, which culminated in the Holocaust merely three years later.\nFascism, however, did not cease to exist after 8th May 1945. Today, racist, fascist and Neo-Nazi movements are on the rise all over Europe. Neo-Nazis hunt and assault migrants, Muslims, Jews, Roma, LGBTQ-activists, people living with disabilities and other minorities, using rallies as a cover-up for their hate-crimes.\nSince the early 1990s, UNITED for Intercultural Action has organised and inspired annual pan-European antiracist activities on 9 November. This date has several reasons, firstly, to commemorate victims of the \u201cKristallnacht\u201d pogrom and, more broadly, victims of the Holocaust and of fascism throughout history. Secondly, to raise awareness about the danger of racism, anti-semitism, right-wing extremism and neo-fascism today. The third main reason is to mobilise different groups and individuals to build a common front against xenophobia, intolerance, hate and violence.\nThe European Parliament is concerned by the increasing normalisation of fascism, racism and xenophobia and calls on EU member states to ban neo-fascist and neo-Nazi groups.\nhttp://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20181018IPR16527/parliament-demands-ban-on-neo-fascist-nd-neo-nazi-groups-in-the-eu\nThe name \u201cKristallnacht\u201d (\u201cCrystal Night\u201d) was obtained in connection with the many broken windows of shops and shopping places. The occasion was the revenge for the murder of a German diplomat E. Rath by a Polish Jew, who committed an act of vengeance for the expulsion of his parents from Germany.\nOne of the largest manifestations of xenophobia was the apartheid regime in the Republic of South Africa. It was implemented by official policy that supported separated life of white and black people. For combating this phenomenon, Nelson Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.\nTo know more about the history of antisemitism you can take the online course developed by Yad Vashem, the world holocaust remembrance center. https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/antisemitism\nFor a short history of fascism click here",

Supporters of cryptocurrencies proclaim this form of digital income isn\u2019t manipulated by a central banking system and is not therefore susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Since there are a restricted amount of goods, this cashis value is dependant on market forces, permitting homeowners to deal over cryptocurrency transactions.\nHere is the trendiest thing about cryptocurrencies; they do not physically exist everywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you take a look at a particular address for a wallet containing a cryptocurrency, there is absolutely no digital information held in it, like in exactly the same manner that the bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It truly is simply a representation of value, but there isn\u2019t any real palpable form of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or immobilized or audited by the banks and the law. They do not have spending limits and withdrawal constraints enforced on them. No one but the owner of the crypto wallet can decide how their riches will be managed.\nThe wonder of the cryptocurrencies is the fact that fraud was proved an impossibility: because of the dynamics of the process in which it\u2019s transacted. All transactions on the crypto-currency blockchain are permanent. Once you\u2019re paid, you get paid. This is not something short-term wherever your visitors could challenge or demand a discounts, or employ unethical sleight of hand. In-practice, most investors will be smart to make use of a transaction processor, because of the permanent dynamics of crypto-currency deals, you should be sure that safety is tricky. With any form of crypto-currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous other altcoins, thieves and hackers could potentially get access to your personal secrets and so steal your cash. Sadly, you probably will never have it back. It is very important for you yourself to undertake some great secure and safe methods when dealing with any cryptocurrency. Doing so will protect you from all of these adverse functions.\nCryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have already been designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers contend that there is actual value, even through there is no physical representation of that value. The value increases due to computing power, that is, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time period that\u2019s worth an ever declining amount of money or some form of benefit in order to ensure the shortage. Each coin consists of many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are just to authenticate other trades, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which is among the appealing aspects of the coin. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, that is part of the block that gave rise to it. The individual who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it to a value is provided by another address, which is a wallet file saved on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of all trades dwells. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.\nThe fact that there is little evidence of any increase in using virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal attempts to regulate it. The reason for this could be simply that the market is too small for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory effort. It truly is also possible that the regulators just don\u2019t understand the technology and its consequences, anticipating any developments to act.\nMining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to create more. The mining process is what produces more of the coin. It may be useful to think of the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you will get to keep the total benefits of your efforts, but this reduces your odds of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much higher chance of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, based on the amount of shares won.\nIf you are thinking of going it alone, it really is worth noting that the software configuration for solo mining can be more complicated than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter route. This alternative also creates a stable flow of revenue, even if each payment is modest compared to fully block the wages.\nHybrid Network Marketing \u2013 What Is TAN Monthly Renewal\nEthereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too quickly, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could improve dramatically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the whole stage of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the raising costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether can result in an adverse change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based business which could result in business being unable to continue to manage or to cease operation.\nThe physical Internet backbone that carries information between the various nodes of the network is now the work of several firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), including firms that offer long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local conduit, which finally joins in families and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through one of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private companies, and sometimes by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for last mile-consumers and businesses who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the data to stream without interruption, in the appropriate place at the right time.\nWhile none of these organizations possesses the Internet collectively these companies determine how it works, and recognized rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is happening to ascertain how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs permission from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone for connecting to and with her. Concern over security issues? A working group is formed to work on the issue and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to call to get it repaired. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which regulate the way in which these issues are solved.\nThe benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain is not regulated by any focused firm. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a devoted advocate badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet operates. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present constitutional problems to the user. Blockchain technology has none of that.\nFor most users of cryptocurrencies it isn\u2019t essential to understand how the procedure works in and of itself, but it\u2019s essentially vital that you understand that there is a procedure for mining to create virtual money. Unlike monies as we understand them today where Authorities and banks can only select to print unlimited quantities (I \u2018m not saying they are doing thus, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be operated by users using a mining program, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation.\nMany individuals prefer to use a currency deflation, particularly individuals who need to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Fiscal solitude, for instance, is great for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign funding. We need a stable cryptocurrency for use in trade; if you\u2019re living pay check to pay check, it would happen within your wealth, with the rest earmarked for other currencies.\nWhen searching on the internet for what is TAN monthly renewal, there are many things to consider.\nHybrid Binary \u2013 What Is TAN Monthly Renewal\nClick here to visit our home page and learn more about what is TAN monthly renewal.\nBitcoin is the chief cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, world-wide, and decentralized. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or any other regulatory agencies. Therefore, it truly is more immune to wild inflation and tainted banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy hazards. Security and seclusion can easily be reached by simply being intelligent, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn\u2019t set your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be secured by removing any identity of possession from the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous.\nCryptocurrency is freeing people to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but they also participate in more complicated smart contracts. Multiple signatures allow a trade to be supported by the network, but where a certain number of a defined group of folks consent to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This permits progressive dispute mediation services to be developed in the future. These services could allow a third party to approve or reject a trade in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain always leaves public proof that the transaction occurred. This can be possibly used in a appeal against companies with deceptive practices.\nIf you are in search of what is TAN monthly renewal, look no further than AN.\nWhat Is TAN Monthly Renewal \u2013 Reverse 3-Up\nIt should be challenging to get more small gains (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study the way to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be true: having modest gains is more rewarding than attempting to fight up to the peak. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it\u2019s better to have a look at books than wait for order confirmation when you believe the cost is going down. Secondly, there is more unpredictability and reward in currencies that have not made it to the profitableness of sites like Coinwarz.\nIt\u2019s definitely possible, but it must be able to understand opportunities regardless of market behavior.

Penning a letter on behalf of the organization, president Carey Dunne urged Secretary of State John Kerry to implore the UN to respect its obligations, concluding that \u201cIt is in the legal and foreign policy interests of the United States to promote the rule of law, international law and compliance with international treaty obligations, including by the UN itself.\u201d\nThe cholera epidemic began in Haiti in October 2010, less than a year after the country was ravaged by the January earthquake that killed more than 200,000 people, injured countless others and left hundreds of thousands living in squalid and unsanitary displacement camps that lacked even the most basic services. The disease had never been previously recorded in Haiti.\nShortly before the cholera claimed its first Haitian victim, a Nepalese contingent of UN peacekeeping forces, known by their French acronym, MINUSTAH, was deployed to Haiti. At the time, Katmandu was experiencing a known outbreak of cholera that is nearly identical to the strain that has spread across Haiti. The disease was dispersed by inadequate waste treatment management that systematically leaked contaminated sewage into a tributary of the Artibonite River, which serves as the source of drinking and bathing water for tens of thousands of Haitians. Already rendered vulnerable to illness by poverty and inadequate water, sanitation and health facilities, cholera rampaged through the country. The disease continues to claim lives and ravage communities, and threatens other countries in the region as well, having spread already to the Dominican Republic, Mexico and cuba.\nHaitian cholera victims initially sought redress at the UN, petitioning the organization to establish a standing claims commission to resolve civil claims, as required by the Status of Forces Agreement signed by the UN and Haiti in 2004. Rejecting the petition, the UN argued that it was not receivable, since consideration of the claims would require a policy review that is prohibited under Section 2 of the 1946 Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the UN [PDF]. But as the New York Bar Association letter claims, \u201cIt is not credible for the UN to maintain that these tort claims brought by individuals would somehow \u2018necessarily include a review of political and policy matters\u2019 and thus relieve the UN of its obligation to provide an appropriate alternate mode of settlement.\u201d\nContrary to the UN\u2019s assertion, its immunity is not absolute. Instead, conditional immunity is premised on the expectation that the UN would implement an internal mechanism for the resolution for civil disputes arising out of its presence in a country. Section 29 of the Convention requires the UN to \u201cmake provisions for appropriate modes of settlement of disputes arising out of contracts and other disputes of a private law character.\u201d The claims of negligence, gross negligence and recklessness are quintessentially private law claims. Yet no mechanism to resolve disputes has been established in Haiti, or any other country.\nAs the incalculable toll of death and suffering has continued to rise, the UN has been unable to raise [PDF] more than a fraction of the funds needed for its cholera eradication plan, including improvements to the country\u2019s fragile water, sanitation and health infrastructure. The UN\u2019s intransigence undermines its credibility and may deter other donors from making contributions, reluctant to entrust an organization that shirks its clear responsibility, both morally and legally, for causing the epidemic.\nAfter the UN\u2019s denial of responsibility, those associated with the organization initially circled the wagons. But many close to the organization are now speaking out and urging the UN to take responsibility for the suffering it caused. In a report written in February and delivered to the Human Rights Council in March, Gustavo Gallon, UN Independent Expert on Human Rights in Haiti, lambasted the UN for its failure to take responsibility for the epidemic, and pushed the UN to set up a commission \u201cto enable damages to be recorded, corresponding benefits or compensation to be paid, the persons responsible to be identified, the epidemic to be stopped and other measures to be implemented.\u201d Last October, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay calledfor the cholera victims to be compensated. Kul Guatam, former UN Assistant Secretary-General from Nepal, also supports compensation, stating his \u201cwish a creative solution could be found whereby the Haitian victims would get some modest amount of financial support on humanitarian grounds, without the UN having to give up its diplomatic immunity,\u201d which would require \u201csome enlightened governments and foundations\u2026to offer help, not as a matter of legal obligation, but as a matter of humanitarian consideration.\u201d Stephen Lewis, who served as Canadian ambassador to the United Nations and worked for the UN as Deputy Director of UNICEF and as UN Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa, backs the litigation against the UN, stating \u201cI think it is unequivocal, the responsibility of the United Nations for the cholera outbreak.\u201d Bruce Rashkow, formerly of the UN Office of Legal Affairs and the US Mission to the UN, questioned how the claims could be considered to fall outside the UN\u2019s obligations to settle, and noted that \u201cas the head of the UN legal office that routinely handled claims against the Organization for some ten years, I did not recall any previous instance where such a formulation was utilized.\u201d\nYet even after three class action lawsuits, multiple scientific studies and overwhelming evidence of its culpability, the UN continues the deafening silence on its responsibility for bringing cholera to Haiti. And it continues to evade its financial obligation to vanquish the waterborne disease from the already impoverished island and to make those who have suffered whole. The UN\u2019s legitimacy is premised on its own respect for the principles it espouses. Despite a charge that includes modeling foundational principles of democracy, accountability and stewardship for humanity, however, the UN refuses to be held to that standard itself. As Dunne\u2019s letter notes, \u201cThe position taken by the UN runs the risk of encouraging governments or courts around the world to lift the UN\u2019s immunity, which is not in the interest of either the UN or the United States.\u201d\nThe UN\u2019s compliance with international legal standards is critical to upholding its lofty mission of encouraging justice and the rule of law. Dunne\u2019s letter noted that his organization is \u201cparticularly concerned that the position taken by the UN in this matter is not consistent with its obligations under the 1946 Convention and runs the risk of undermining not only UN immunity worldwide but also in the US as the host State of the Organization and in New York City as host City. It also exposes the UN to charges that it is using its treaty-based immunity to deny victims of a cholera epidemic any recourse to justice.\u201d Given the compelling legal arguments for UN liability, the New York Bar Association has joined many others in imploring the US, \u201cto call upon the UN to perform its obligations under that Convention and provide an appropriate mode for settling the cholera claims.\u201d The rising number of cholera victims have already waited long enough for justice.",

        "raw_content": "Bill Stalled in Senate Will Ensure Aid Accountability\nThe Assessing Progress in Haiti Act, currently stalled in the Senate\u2019s Foreign Relations Committee, seeks much-needed accountability for US aid to Haiti. Much of the funds donated to Haiti after the 2010 earthquake have yet to be disbursed or spent. This bill, which is widely supported and has passed through the House with bipartisan support, is meant to ensure just and responsible allocation of funds to Haiti.\nMaking Sure Haiti Aid Helps the Most Vulnerable\nWilliam F. Schulz, Huffington Post\nWhen disaster strikes, the American people open their hearts and their wallets to provide assistance to those in need. This was especially true when a deadly earthquake struck our neighbor Haiti on January 12, 2010. Congress moved quickly to provide $1.14 billion in emergency aid with $651 million allocated to the State Department\u2019s Agency for International Development (USAID) to implement reconstruction projects. What Congress failed to do was accompany that money with clear policy guidance and benchmarks for success. As a consequence, the General Accounting Office (GAO) report in June 2013 found that \u201cCongress lacks information on the amounts of funds obligated and disbursed and program-by-program progress of U.S. reconstruction activities [in Haiti].\u201d With significant post-earthquake assistance still unspent and the needs of the Haitian people still unmet, it is time for Congress to demand greater transparency and accountability.\nThe Assessing Progress in Haiti Act (H.R.3509) would do just that. The bill, introduced by Representative Barbara Lee (D-CA), requires the State Department to provide comprehensive reporting on how U.S. aid in Haiti is being spent including an assessment of whether vulnerable populations have been taken into account in the design and implementation of new programs. Nearly six months after the bill passed the House with bipartisan support, it is languishing in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.\nI have joined with 22 CEO\u2019s of international development, faith-based, human rights and social justice organizations to strongly urge the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to swiftly pass the Assessing Progress in Haiti Act. We believe that if the United States aspires to be a leader on the global stage of humanitarian and development relief, particularly in post disaster contexts, it is critical that future US policy and practice is informed by what has or has not been achieved in Haiti. The Assessing Progress in Haiti Act makes an important contribution to that learning.\nWe want Senators to know that this bill has \u201cwidespread bi-partisan support, has undergone extensive consultations and is supported by organizations with a strong commitment to a just recovery in Haiti.\u201d There is no excuse for delay. This bill provides \u201ca meaningful way to ensure the responsible allocation of U.S. taxpayer funds and help ensure that our efforts in Haiti are fulfilling the hopes and aspirations of the Haitian people.\u201d\nHaitians continue to face tremendous challenges. It\u2019s not too late to make a difference. What\u2019s needed is timely, comprehensive information on the status of U.S. efforts in Haiti and strong oversight moving forward. It\u2019s time for the Senate to do its part to honor American generosity and the dignity and worth of the Haiti people.",

        "raw_content": "Robert I (11 July 1274 \u2013 7 June 1329), popularly known as Robert the Bruce, was King of Scots from 1306 until his death in 1329. Robert was one of the most famous warriors of his generation, and eventually led Scotland during the First War of Scottish Independence against England. He fought successfully during his reign to regain Scotland\u2019s place as an independent country and is today revered in Scotland as a national hero.\nDescended from the Anglo-Norman and Gaelic nobility, his paternal fourth-great grandfather was King David I. Robert\u2019s grandfather, Robert de Brus, 5th Lord of Annandale, was one of the claimants to the Scottish throne during the \u201cGreat Cause\u201d. As Earl of Carrick, Robert the Bruce supported his family\u2019s claim to the Scottish throne and took part in William Wallace\u2019s revolt against Edward I of England. Appointed in 1298 as a Guardian of Scotland alongside his chief rival for the throne, John III Comyn, Lord of Badenoch, and William Lamberton, Bishop of St Andrews, Robert later resigned in 1300 due to his quarrels with Comyn and the apparently imminent restoration of John Balliol to the Scottish throne. After submitting to Edward I in 1302 and returning to \u201cthe king\u2019s peace\u201d, Robert inherited his family\u2019s claim to the Scottish throne upon his father\u2019s death.\nIn February 1306, Robert the Bruce killed Comyn following an argument, and was excommunicated by the Pope (although he received absolution from Robert Wishart, Bishop of Glasgow). Bruce moved quickly to seize the throne and was crowned king of Scots on 25 March 1306. Edward I\u2019s forces defeated Robert in battle, forcing him to flee into hiding in the Hebrides and Ireland before returning in 1307 to defeat an English army at Loudoun Hill and wage a highly successful guerrilla war against the English. Bruce defeated his other Scots enemies, destroying their strongholds and devastating their lands, and in 1309 held his first parliament. A series of military victories between 1310 and 1314 won him control of much of Scotland, and at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, Robert defeated a much larger English army under Edward II of England, confirming the re-establishment of an independent Scottish kingdom. The battle marked a significant turning point, with Robert\u2019s armies now free to launch devastating raids throughout northern England, while also extending his war against the English to Ireland by sending an army to invade there and by appealing to the Irish to rise against Edward II\u2019s rule.\nDespite Bannockburn and the capture of the final English stronghold at Berwick in 1318, Edward II refused to renounce his claim to the overlordship of Scotland. In 1320, the Scottish nobility submitted the Declaration of Arbroath to Pope John XXII, declaring Robert as their rightful monarch and asserting Scotland\u2019s status as an independent kingdom. In 1324, the Pope recognised Robert I as king of an independent Scotland, and in 1326, the Franco-Scottish alliance was renewed in the Treaty of Corbeil. In 1327, the English deposed Edward II in favour of his son, Edward III, and peace was concluded between Scotland and England with the Treaty of Edinburgh-Northampton, by which Edward III renounced all claims to sovereignty over Scotland.\nRobert I died in June 1329. His body is buried in Dunfermline Abbey, while his heart was interred in Melrose Abbey.\nArticle Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_the_Bruce\nbiographyonline.net/military/robert-the-bruce.html\nbbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/bruce_robert_the.shtml\nvisitscotland.com/about/famous-scots/robert-the-bruce/\n*Image used in this article is in the public domain commons.wikimedia.org",

        "raw_content": "53rd Melbourne International Film Festival, July-Aug 2004\nA plenitude of offerings as usual, but with the abiding impression that we were simply receiving \"variations on a theme\", as the festival overflowed with new (but lesser) works from known directors. I attended 50-odd sessions, pretty much avoiding anything with an upcoming release, and had a good time overall. Before divulging my top ten films, it\u2019s only fair that I at least list all the others I saw.\nThe awful: Somnambulance, The Adventure of Iron Pussy, Josh Jarman, How to Tell When a Relationship is Over, Sextasy, and a slough of Australian shorts (the Shortlands, It Takes Two to Tango, And One Step Back, Everything Goes, Heartworm).\nThe disappointing: Triple Agent, The Holy Girl, Letters in the Wind, The Cat Returns, The Story of Marie and Julien, Work Hard, Play Hard, Goodbye, Dragon Inn, Woman is the Future of Man.\nThe okay: The Saddest Music in the World, Roads to Koktebel, At Five in the Afternoon, The Riverside, 15, Cinema Dali, Film as Subversive Art, Creature Comforts, Anthem, Unknown Passage: The Dead Moon Story, Bright Leaves, Fallen Angel: Gram Parsons, We Have Decided Not to Die, Like Twenty Impossibles, Abel Ferrara: Not Guilty, The Ladies\u2019, Maryam\u2019s Son, My Neighbors the Yamadas.\nThe good: Pure Shit, 10 on Ten, Persons of Interest, Five, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter \u2026 and Spring, Black Man and his Bride, Hot Centre of the World, Petersen, Nobody Knows, Only Yesterday, Stir, Orange Love Story, The Widower, The Five Obstructions, Mona Lisa.\nThe jury is out: The Ister (because I could only see the first half).\nAnd so, the ten highlights of the festival, for me:\nHamlet X (James Clayden, 2003)\nThe most radical of the wonderful Australian experimental works programmed in this year\u2019s festival (The Ister, Orange Love Story, The Widower). Fragmented and pacy, making it baffling and unnerving, it is also undeniably fascinating and seductive.\nJoy of Madness (Hana Makhmalbaf, 2003)\nWith her sister and father losing themselves in lyrical abstractions lately, 15-year-old Hana pulls out this barbed, unflinching document (on sister Samira\u2019s questionable directing methods, no less). Reminiscent of the lively Iranian cinema of the \u201890s.\nBemani (Dariush Mehrjui, 2002)\nNot as accomplished as Mehrjui\u2019s last couple of films (The Pear Tree, Leila), this is nevertheless a highly enjoyable mosaic of the struggles of several young women in patriarchal Iran. Mehrjui punctuates the drama with a number of quite impure expressionistic flourishes, giving the film an exciting feel.\nTropical Malady (Apichatpong Weerasethakul, 2004)\nA failure, but a mightily ambitious one. The film\u2019s pay-offs are beautiful, but few and far between. The film connects everyday tenderness with primal mysticism, but Weerasethakul isn\u2019t able to fully integrate them. Almost a great film.\nNotre Musique (Jean-Luc Godard, 2004)\nComing right after the sublime \u00c9loge de l'amour, this film confirms Godard\u2019s current trajectory \u2013 his last works will be clear-headed, inventive and surprisingly light (given his conclusions) ruminations on life, the universe and everything.\nSamaritan Girl (Kim Ki-duk, 2004)\nNot as beautiful as The Isle or as exciting as Bad Guy, this film is nevertheless a wonderful concoction from its talented director. Its treatise on innocence, sacrifice and repulsion is fascinating, and the way it resolves these elements in the narrative is highly moving.\nEnd of the Century: The Story of the Ramones (Jim Fields, Michael Gramaglia, 2004)\nA music documentary literally bursting at the seams. The live footage of the band features scorching performances, and the story that emerges from the interviews with band members is quite incredible.\nWhisper of the Heart (Kondo Yoshifumi, 1995)\nThe best of the Studio Ghibli animations on offer (from the upcoming seasons at the Nova and Astor): sprightly, funny and joyous. A hobby horse of mine is to look for a certain kind of light, tender, life-affirming vision in cinema. I rarely find it, but Ghibli films give it to me occasionally.\nAur\u00e9v\u00e9lateur (La R\u00e9v\u00e9lateur, Philippe Garrel, 1968 & live score by Philip Brophy, 2004)\nA magical combination of sound and image. From its Joy Division-inspired opening, through to its appropriation of David Bowie\u2019s \"Heroes\", the score is charged with emotion and filled with mythic and poetic grandeur. Which suits Philippe Garrel\u2019s original film \u2013 with its strange, beautiful, \"performance art\" images \u2013 down to a tee.\nTwentynine Palms (Bruno Dumont, 2003)\nAn existential horror film, essaying the brutality of the fragility of masculinity. Its vision of man as primal entity (superbly embodied in the act of the screaming orgasm) applies not only to the crazy American rednecks at the end, but to its \"cool\", Euro-savvy film director (anti)hero all throughout. A brilliant film, with acting and direction that make every other film at this year\u2019s festival look fake.",

        "raw_content": "Ever noticed that everyone acts as if there is a league game going on as far as dating and relationships go? It is quite a complex league structure as well, with the leagues being decided on so many factors including looks, age, fashion sense, economic class, education, job prospects and so many other things \u2013 half of which we may not even be able to crystallize. Still, every now and then, a friend might pull you back from approaching someone you feel attracted to with the comment, \u201cChill! Way out of your league! Don\u2019t go hurting yourself!\u201d\nAre there really such clear-cut leagues in society? Are we destined to be a layered, beleaguered society? Are we constantly looking to trade up in this league game?\nIn matters of love stories, often times the celebrated legends are the ones that break through the barriers, where the leagues don\u2019t matter. There are gods who fall in love with humans, royalty that falls in love with a theatre person (Hey \u2013 that story is repeating just now as well!), the rich person and the poor artisan, and hundreds of such stories of people breaking barriers in the name of love. Those are the stories we celebrate and tell generation after generation \u2013 not the story of how one industrialist married another, or other general relationships though sometimes they are fun as well.\n\u200bSo, when every other story is about breaking barriers and love succeeding in uniting people across levels, why is it that people stay within their leagues? Why do we get warned about what is within our league and what is not?\nThe real story could possibly be about the degree of risk involved, and whether one has the appetite for the risk. Each of us gets quite accustomed to our own ways of life, and while there is always room to adapt and change, drastic changes are a lot to handle especially if there are expectations of permanently adjusting to a new lifestyle right away. It is not easy to adjust to a lot more than what is one used to, or a lot less either. The notion that the lovers find it within themselves to make do and be happy is often belied in reality by bitter struggles for resources and support. Sometimes, the romanticisation such as in the musical Sound of Music, glosses over the difficulties the family goes through with their relationship that breaks through barriers of age, class, parenthood. The book is a lot more honest on that account, but in both, they do survive and manage to thrive all the same.\nProfessing love and courting love is anyway fraught with risk. There are no guarantees that your love will be reciprocated in whatsoever manner. You might get rejected for any number of reasons, and yet one seeks it all the same. So, why let questions of who is in or out of whose league matter, if you are up for the risk?\nIf you don\u2019t mind dusting yourself off and moving on with whatever else life brings up, then go on \u2013 break a league.",

Analysts expected earnings of $0.44 per share. Revenue was also lower, coming in at $15.1 billion, versus $16.1 billion in 2012's fourth quarter. The lower revenue reflects a drop of $802 million on operations or 5 percent. In addition, Pfizer also was negatively impacted by foreign exchange transactions, costing the company another $271 million. Nevertheless, Pfizer's fourth quarter revenue still beat the street expectation of $14.37 billion. Daily Chart\nNew York City based Pfizer Inc. is the largest pharmaceutical company in the world by revenues. Pfizer's biggest products include Lipitor, used for lowering cholesterol, Diflucan, an oral antifungal medication, Viagra, for erectile dysfunction and Celebrex, an anti inflammatory drug. Pfizer lost its exclusive license to sell Lipitor in most major markets last year, which was one of the principal causes for the company to experience a -28 percent drop in revenue for its Primary Care unit compared to Q4 of 2011. The impact of the loss of exclusivity of other products, such as Geodan,caused a drop of as much as $1.8 billion in revenue for the quarter, or 33 percent. Pfizer's earnings were significantly affected by the sale of the company's nutrition unit to Nestle in late November of 2012. The company's Chairman and CEO, Ian Read stated in a post earnings conference that, \"We realized significant value for our shareholders through the sale of our Nutrition business to Nestl for $11.85 billion, and we're on track subject to market conditions to unlock value from our Animal Health business by completing our IPO Zoetis in the near future, and we returned nearly $15 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.\" During the same conference, CFO Frank D'Amelio expressed the company's guidance for 2013, \"a range for revenues of $56.2 to $58.2 billion and for adjusted diluted EPS of $2.20 to $2.30.\" He continued, \"We expect adjusted SI&A expenses to be between $15.6 billion and $16.6 billion, with the mid-point below the 2012 level. Notably, we expect SI&A expenses will include substantial expenses associated with the launches of various key medicines, including Eliquis, Xeljanz and Prevnar/Prevenar 13 for adults, but plan to essentially offset those incremental expenses through our cost-reduction initiatives. Lastly, we expect to continue to deploy significant capital to share repurchases during the year.\" Pfizer stock has performed impressively, rising more than seven percent YTD and almost 30 percent since January of 2012. The stock goes ex-dividend today, paying out shareholders of record as of the close of today's trading session, a dividend of $0.24 per share.

        "raw_content": "Professor Terry Thaxton, Director of the Literary Arts Partnership at the University of Central Florida, began offering \u201cstorytelling workshops\u201d at Emeritus, an assisted living facility near UCF, modeling them after TimeSlips, a program started by Anne Basting at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Basting\u2019s work and her book, Forget Memory, have inspired many artists who work with people with memory loss to focus on imagination, not memory. Facilitators bring in a picture, ask open-ended questions, and guide the residents toward telling a story about the picture.\nService-Learning, Literary Arts Partnership at UCF\nI began working with my forgetful friends as part of a Service-Learning (SL) option in one of my first creative writing classes at UCF in the Spring 2011 semester. SL proved to be so valuable to me that I decided to continue my service project after I stopped receiving course credit. I continued at Emeritus for two years.\nDuring the first semester, I worked with one of my classmates, Kyle. Once a week we went to Emeritus and worked with a group of residents with Alzheimer\u2019s disease and related dementias (ADRD). Another classmate, Tom, also worked at Emeritus, but with the residents in the Assisted Living unit. In the Spring of 2012, Professor Thaxton asked me to mentor Stella who wanted to work with residents with ADRD for her SL project, and then in Fall 2012, I worked with another SL student, Lana.\nDuring my first few months of service-learning, I focused on the emotional, philosophical, scientific, and other aspects of creativity, but I failed to notice the small things that created a sense of place or conveyed the individual preferences and habits that the participants brought to the storytelling workshop.\nCreativity: Transcending Memory Loss\nMy undergraduate thesis, \u201cCreativity: Transcending Memory Loss,\u201d a multimedia work\u2014which included text, images, and video, explored the creative use of non-traditional storytelling to showcase how creativity evolves in people with ADRD. This website accomplishes the same purpose, only now, artists who interpret and illustrate the stories are building a bridge between people with ADRD and anyone who values storytelling as an art form.\nAlice Spicer, Director of Alzheimer Chronicles, Inc",

The partners have, between them, more than 30 years\u2019 experience as therapists, 25 years teaching practice and more than 20 years of business management. Our name, IPT, is an acronym that represents the overarching vision and uniqueness of this idea which is based on providing Information, Prevention and Treatment of psychological difficulties to the local community and beyond through training, education and therapy.\nPsychological wellbeing has become a subject of huge interest in recent years. Awareness has increased as has the interest in seeking support and services work hard to meet the demands of those who need it. Nowadays it is acknowledged that psychological \u201cfitness\u201d is under threat in all walks of life. The upsurge has resulted in many efforts to encourage self-care as well as increasing waiting lists and time limited treatment programmes. Efforts by specific services, employers, schools and others make some difference however the problem with mental health has become somewhat epidemic like, suggesting everyone can benefit from becoming more aware of how to prevent and manage difficulties whilst many require treatment to restore some psychological balance to their lives. Research and experience continues to demonstrate that the availability for access to and engagement in programmes / activities to increase awareness of, help prevent difficulties with and provide appropriate treatment of psychological / emotional / mental disturbance falls short of what is required.\nThe services provided by IPT Training and Therapy Services seek to develop mutually benefitting relationships with members of the community, local employers, local support agencies, local schools, local prisons, local GP practices and local Mental Health services by providing a proactive educational programme that helps maintain psychological wellbeing as well as a reactive therapeutic service that seeks to address and improve psychological difficulties.\nIPT Training and Therapy Services provide a new holistic approach to today\u2019s complex issues of mental health care the development of their delivery on awareness, prevention and treatment of psychological difficulties.\nOur services are for you, your family, your workplace, and those you care for.\nAll that we do is guided by the BACP Ethical Framework (for more information on this see here) and The Humans Given Institute (for more information on this see here)\nIf you would like to hear more about what we have to offer then why not contact us.\nhttp://www.ipttrainingandtherapy.co.uk/ipt-training-and-therapy-services/\">",

        "raw_content": "I've been wanting to do a new lifestyle post for so long because it feels like it's been ages and I've been up to so much, but my content schedule has been swamped! Today I'm finally sitting down to share and I hope you enjoy.\nI've had a really great few weeks with friends and family! We had a family occasion a little while back, so it was great to see some of my relatives that don't live nearby and we don't get to see very often. One of the best things about being back in Birmingham has been being so close to my grandparents and seeing a lot more of them, which is something I value more and more as time goes on. That same weekend I went to visit one of my really good university friends who recently moved back near me with her boyfriend. We've had a bit of a dinner and movie tradition going - the first time round she made dinner for us and a few other university friends I haven't seen in a while and we watched Get Out, which was even more brilliant the second time round! Then another time we got a really good takeaway, had some wine and watched It (you can check out my review below).\nAnother big thing for me was our office Oscars award ceremony! I'd been part of the committee planning the event for months, doing everything from finding a venue with food and a good drinks menu and a band to negotiating life-sized Oscar statues, making sure the presenters had the right envelope... and blowing up DOZENS of balloons! It went off so perfectly, and once the awards were out of the way, we got to relax and enjoy the band and the bar. We had such a great night getting dressed up and recognising people's achievements as we as a few joke awards - it's one of the highlights of the year in terms of work socials and we got such a good turnout!\nIt was recently one of my best friend's birthdays in London, so in our usual style we made a weekend of it! After everyone arrived in the east end, we went for a bit of a sushi feast at Sushnoen and had a few drinks before getting a relatively early night ahead of Saturday's main event. During the daytime on Saturday we met another of our friends for a really yummy brunch at Friends of Ours (check out the delicious pancakes I had here) before doing a spot of shopping. My friend's birthday was a house party so we had a bit of prep before everyone arrived, getting cocktails and nibbles ready. It was such a good night with such a great turnout and a few old familiar faces. I really remembered how awesome house parties are - it was like being back at university! The next day it was boozy brunch at Clerkenwell Grind before I headed back on the train.\nThe snow earlier in the month meant a bit of a change of plans for my weekend when the Beast from the East descended. We actually all got sent home from work at midday so I took a gamble and decided to head to Oxford to see my friend for the weekend. Luckily everything was running fine and we had a chilled out afternoon before I got to attend her formal dinner (which involved Latin, robes and people really keen to take your plates away...) and meet all the people I'd been hearing about since she started there in September. We also went to a Liquid Lounge mixer between a couple of colleges, which was fun. Saturday started with brunch at Gail's Bakery, where I think I ate about 5 different savoury and sweet baked bits alongside my actual meal... We did a spot of shopping and spontaneously went to see the Black Panther (review below!) at Curzon because we'd both been wanting to see it for aaaages but everyone we'd asked had already been. It was great to sip mimosas whilst watching a film! That evening we did a cheese and wine night with a movie, and another friend joined us, as we had tickets for the TEDx Oxford event on Saturday (which was an all-day thing) and didn't want to go too hard. A few more of our friends joined the next day for the event and we had a really good day. One or two of the speakers didn't quite connect with me but there was enough interesting stuff in there to make it really worthwhile (the theme was the brain, the mind and mental health). Though I was pretty exhausted on the rail replacement service home...\nA couple of weeks back I had the opportunity to go to an event with Stila for their new Spring collection (you can check out my review of their liquid eyeshadows here), which was lovely and a great opportunity to meet some of the Birmingham bloggers. I actually met Dorota from Beauty Drama Queen off the back of that for lunch - she's totally lovely and I feel as though we have a lot in common in terms of where we are with our blogs and working full time alongside it, so definitely check out her blog if you don't already read it.\nAfter the Stila event I headed back to Manchester for a bit of a long weekend. I was lucky enough to be invited to the Titanic Spa with my mum, which was incredible and just what I needed - I'll be doing a post on it later in the month. The following day we went for a spot of shopping at the Trafford Centre, had brunch and went to the cinema before an evening with a Dine in for Two from M&S (I never miss this because it's such good value!) The Sunday was Mother's Day so we headed to one of my favourite places in Manchester for lunch and Prosecco: Evelyn's, which has such a good selection if you're vegan or vegetarian.\nBlack Panther | I just have so many feelings about this film but I'm going to try to write a coherent paragraph on it here! I'll assume you know the basic details: technological secret African kingdom, a fight for the throne, a magical metal everyone wants to get their hands on etc. I've really struggled to get excited about superhero movies in recent years; they've just felt so same-y and uninspiring... but then along came the Black Panther with new faces, a brilliant story and an incredible new setting (I'm so over dreary, rainy skyscrapers). The plot is very strong compared to other superhero films and the world-building is effortless. It's almost like superhero meets Shakespeare meets Afro futurism. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to see an almost all-black cast (Martin Freeman plays the 'reverse-token who doesn't progress the plot much' in a pretty self-aware way) and a positive portrayal of Africa. All of the actors are great; especially Michael B. Jordan, Letitia Wright and I also have to say Andy Serkis was pretty impressive as one of the red herring villains in a rare live action performance. The settings, the effects, the mythology, the costume design, the humour - just everything comes together to make a fantastic cinematic experience. It also makes very real points relevant to the world we live in and (unlike a lot these kinds of films) introduces a lot of grey morality, which keeps things interesting and makes you think. It's definitely breathed life back into a genre I was kind of 'over' as well as hopefully paving the way for more ethnically diverse films to be greenlit in Hollywood.\nI, Tonya | If you haven't heard of the infamous incident Tonya Harding is famous for then go and Google it NOW, because you couldn't make it up! This is a darkly comedic biopic features lots of fourth wall breaking and is framed with a series of interviews with those involved in what happened. Essentially it follows Olympic skater Tonya whose mother is pretty abusive in her pushiness to make her a star. Tonya is widely derided as being 'white trash' and not the kind of person the US wants representing it on the world stage and has to work at a diner in between competitions. Her personal life is also out of control due to her volatile and abusive relationship with her husband. I know a lot of people think this film glorified Tonya and made her out to be innocent but I didn't get that from it; both at the start and the end it's pointed out that this is her version of events and her constant commentary that various things 'weren't her fault' is pretty much a running joke. Both Margot Robbie (in an amazing transformation) as Tonya and Allison Janney as her mother are brilliant in this film.\nIt | If you want old school scares with a nice dose of nostalgia and humour then definitely watch this Stephen King horror adaptation! It tells the story of a town terrorised by a monster that emerges once a generation to prey on children - who are the only ones that can see it. It takes the form of whatever they fear and usually appears as a super-creepy clown. The story revolves around a group of kids who decide to hunt it down and destroy it. In some ways it's also incredibly dark - all of the children have other terrible things going on in their lives; there's bullying, abuse and grief all in the mix.\nDetroit | This was kind of a downer to watch after we'd been super-empowered by Black Panther earlier in the day! However it's an important historical film I'd encourage anyone to watch about the 1967 Detroit riots. It's not easy to watch; it's two and a half hours of being anxious and on edge with the tension just escalating and escalating from a difficult opener and then throughout the rest of the run time. In a motel, several rogue police officers essentially interrogate and hold hostage a group of mainly black people. The situation escalates and the officers begin to try and cover up what has happened. It's essentially a punch in the stomach in the form of a film and was released last year on the 50th anniversary of the incident, which for me was a sobering reminder that this all happened within living memory.\nAtlanta Monster | I'm seriously into my true crime and I can't believe I'd never heard about the events of 1979-1981 in Atlanta. This podcast investigates the Atlanta child murders, with each episode putting a different element of the story under the microscope. Between these years, at least 28 children and 2 adults were killed in the city, all black and generally between the ages of 9 and 14. Based on largely circumstantial evidence, a man called Wayne Williams was convicted of the adult murders, so the rest of the killings were then attributed to him and the case was closed. I always find that the most fascinating true crime stories hold up a mirror to the society they were committed within - otherwise, I suppose how would someone get away with it? The areas covered include: the events surrounding Williams' arrest, whether there could really have been only one person responsible, the forensic evidence, the racial tensions with the police in the city at the time and the desperation to get a conviction. If you're interested in true crime then this is an absolute must-listen and all the episodes are now available.\nWhy I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge | This book obviously has a title that makes you sit up and take notice, plus it's a very quick read so I'd recommend picking it up. In Britain there's a definite lack of discourse about race, especially in comparison to the US. This book essentially tells the history of race and racism in this country from pre-slavery to today (including what's been brushed under the carpet). It just lays out the problem in a way that's accessible, concise and put into context with real life examples. My only real concern is that it might be 'preaching to the choir' because to pick up this book you'd have to have a level of wokeness, so the people who would really benefit from it will probably never read it.\nRevolut | I'm seriously trying to get my finances in order and this has been a godsend. Essentially it's a pre-payment card that comes with an amazing app that breaks down exactly what you spend your money on (you can also choose two currencies so you can spend abroad whilst travelling without getting a rubbish exchange rate or transaction fees). It really has been enlightening and has helped me understand where I really need to find less expensive ways of living, which did contain a few surprises for me!\nA New Blog Look | You may have noticed I've spruced things up around here a little bit! I did really like my old look but I was having a few technical issues and unfortunately the person who made it is no longer active in blog design, so I took the opportunity to invest in something new. I'm really happy with it; it's clean, functional and visual, which is what I really wanted. I hope you like it too and find things easy to navigate.\nI hope you're having a lovely Bank Holiday weekend!\nWhat have you been doing, watching, reading and listening to lately?\nLabels: books, film, life, lifestyle, sunday post\nThis is my first time visiting your blog and I love it! I hope you're having a lovely Easter weekend.\nWork Oscars sounds so stressful, well done for pulling it off! :) I love posts like this to catch up on! :) I cannot wait for summer to catch up on books and movies, I'm so stressed with college/work/blog at the moment that I don't have time to do anything other than work and stress! I cannot wait to see Black Panther! It is top of my list!\nLovely to hear you've had a great few weeks, the office Oscars is such a cool idea, I've never heard of that before! Well done with that! Black Panther is a film I'm in love with too, I really want to see it again, it's one of those ones that has a huge impact!\nAlso, I never miss a Dine in for Two deal either, M&S food is the best of the best!\nIt's always so nice to read a little bit more about the life going on behind the blog, and I like the specifics at the end as well. I noticed your new blog design and I love how it's clean and simplistic but still pretty and inviting!\nI loved the new It, it was so well made! Thanks for the recommendations about Detroit it sounds really interesting x\nI definitely need to watch black panther and I tonya, they seem like such awesome movies and I've heard endless good things about them.\nSounds like you've had a busy but great month! We're gradually settling into a games night routine with friends, may have to alternate with a movie night too! I've never heard of Atlanta Monster either, I fascinated by true crime, will definitely look this up to listen to on my walks! I still need to watch Black Panther, it looks amazing.

        "title": "The Universal House of Justice - The Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Community of Johns Creek",
        "raw_content": "The Universal House of Justice is the head administrative body for the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed world community, based on Mount Carmel in Haifa, Israel. The members of the Universal House of Justice are nine men, elected once every five years by the members of all National Spiritual Assemblies in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed world (currently 1,611 men and women), who themselves have been elected by delegates who were elected by proportional representation of the entire adult membership of each national Bah\u00e1'\u00ed community.\nIn accordance with universally applied Bah\u00e1'\u00ed electoral principles, there are no nominations for the members of the Universal House of Justice, nor is electioneering permitted. Each elector votes for those nine Bah\u00e1'\u00ed men from any part of the world who he or she judges are best suited for the post. Moreover, the nine members do not represent specific constituencies. Each considers himself a representative of the entire Bah\u00e1'\u00ed world community.\nIt is notable that out of all Bah\u00e1'\u00ed institutions, whether elective or appointive, the Universal House of Justice is the sole instance where the membership is restricted to men. Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h gave no reason for this provision of the Sacred Text. The Universal House of Justice itself has stated that the ineligibility of women for membership of the Universal House of Justice cannot be adduced as evidence of the superiority of men over women. Such an assertion is inadmissible in face of the categorical pronouncements in Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Scripture establishing the equality of men and women.\nFounded on a set of unique electoral and consultative principles that are democratic in spirit and method, the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed administrative order is organized around freely elected governing councils which operate at the local, national, and international levels. This hierarchy devolves decision-making to the lowest practicable level-thereby instituting a unique vehicle for grassroots participation in governance-while at the same time providing a level of coordination and authority that makes possible cooperation on a global scale. Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h called these governing councils \"Houses of Justice.\"\nThe Universal House of Justice today guides the activities of the global Bah\u00e1'\u00ed community. This body was instituted by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h Himself as the supreme legislative organ of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed administrative order. Its members, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h wrote, are \"the Trustees of God among His servants.\"1 The Universal House of Justice itself states that \"The provenance, the authority, the duties, the sphere of action of the Universal House of Justice all derive from the revealed Word of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h which, together with the interpretations and expositions of the Center of the Covenant and of the Guardian of the Cause - who, after `Abdu'l-Bah\u00e1, is the sole authority in the interpretation of Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Scripture - constitute the binding terms of reference of the Universal House of Justice and are its bedrock foundation.\"2\nAccording to the explicit texts of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h and `Abdu'l-Bah\u00e1, the legislative enactments of the Universal House of Justice have the same authority for Bah\u00e1'\u00eds as do the sacred texts themselves. The difference is that the House of Justice has the right to repeal and alter any of its enactments as the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed community evolves and new conditions emerge, whereas the laws enshrined in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed texts will remain unchanged. `Abdu'l-Bah\u00e1 states that all questions and issues not explicitly addressed in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed sacred writings \"must be referred to the Universal House of Justice. That which this body, whether unanimously or by a majority doth carry, that is verily the truth and the purpose of God Himself.\"3\nTablets of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, p. 128.\nUniversal House of Justice, The Constitution of the Universal House of Justice (Bah\u00e1'\u00ed World Center, 1972), p. 4.\nThe World Order of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, p. 149.\nFor further information regarding the Universal House of Justice please refer to www.bahai.org.",

        "raw_content": "FRIENDS HELP VICTIM OF MIDWAY TORNADO\nBob Allee was making dinner when Thursday's tornado swept through western Boone County. His wife happened to be in Columbia that evening.\n\"If she would've been here, I would've been out in the shop working,\" Allee said. \"It wouldn't have been a fun ride.\"\nAllee used to have an auto body shop next to his house. Now all that remains is a concrete floor. But the mood was upbeat Saturday as friends, family and about 20 Hickman High School students showed up to help Allee, an instructor in the Career Center at Hickman.\nThursday's tornado came over a rise about four miles north of Midway and hit several houses, shredding treetops, crushing a barn and scattering debris over farm fields. Then the twister headed northeast toward Hallsville, touching down several times on its 15-mile path through the county.\nJohn Rychnovsky, Allee's father-in law, got a call from Allee immediately after the tornado and drove more than four hours the next morning from Iowa.\n\"I came down a couple years ago and helped build it, and now we came to clean it up,\" he said.\nAs a friend bulldozed the remains of the auto body shop on Saturday, Pete Kephart worked in a field downwind of the house putting chunks of wood and litter in piles.\n\"He didn't have to call anybody,\" Kephart said.\nShortly before the tornado struck, Allee and his two sons, Adam and Eric, were watching the Disney Channel and getting ready to eat their spaghetti dinner. Then the channel was cut off, and as Allee fiddled with the TV, he tuned into a local announcement of the approaching storm. Allee sent his sons into a playroom in the basement and took down their plates. About 30 seconds later, the tornado hit.\n\"I could feel the house start to creak,\" he said. \"I saw the swing set tumbling over the fence line, and then the house lifted and shifted left.\"\nAllee pushed his sons under the landing of the stairs as dust poured in, but the house was left in one piece.\nAt least three people died in an evening and night of Midwest twisters. In Boone County, more than 20 homes were damaged, said Lt. John Metz of the Boone County Fire Protection District. A mobile home was destroyed, and about two dozen vehicles and more than 20 agricultural buildings were also damaged.\nThe local chapter of the American Red Cross is ready with mental health counseling and emergency help for tornado victims.\nThe family services staff has met with about six families and has provided food, clothing and, in one case, a motel room, said Sandy Keller, assistant director of the chapter.",

        "title": "Heavy Water \u2014 Josh Ingram",
        "raw_content": "\"Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.\" (Psalm 69:1)\nDavid prays to God for relief from an emotional deluge. He continues: \"I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.\" (verse 2) Who knows all the molecules that conspired--one on top of another--to bring him to this point of desperation. I think God allows us to feel inundated for any number of reasons. Some that you can surmise and work out now. Like how He's allowing the trial to make you stronger, etc. That's a real broad and simple platitude when expressed with the wrong motive of heart, I should add. No one likes a circular statement of encouragement. As the truths inherent in your time of testing may be deeper than you can get at as yet, perhaps some good old-fashioned suffering might bring them to the surface? Whoops. That's what I'm talking about. Should you be in proximity to a person treading deepwater, do your best to lift them up, not by words, but by deeds. Buy them coffee. Receive a word from the Lord for them that inspires them to keep moving. Love them in whatever way the Holy Spirit intimates to you. But make sure it's love and not something--anything--else. Because anything else is like giving water to a drowning individual.\n\"Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains. At Thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which Thou hast founded for them. Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.\" (Psalm 104:6-8)\nAs an aside, I wonder about the opening of Genesis, I really do. Why would it say \"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.\" (Genesis 1:3)? God's ultimately in charge, yes. I believe He'll let someone keep living who truly wants to work something out with Him. And I'm talking about the really deep ones. The ones who, all they've known is misery, having been born under a dark cloud and lived under that sky their whole life, who would be happier in Heaven. Should they choose to keep pressing on and bailing, God will reward their faith. There are a thousand variables, to be sure, but I think that unless someone really wants to go home--the suffering's that bad--God will help them out of the flood. He'll recall the waters and see to it that they never break open in the same way again. Don't think me heretical but Jesus is just one person. This is why He's called you, called me. While He can be everywhere by the Holy Spirit, He gives us the privilege of being His proxy to those He's on the way to visit in person (\"and about the fourth watch of the night He cometh unto them, walking upon the sea...\" Mark 6:48). There's a lot to this but, as I mentioned in the first section, this is another reason why we go through suffering. Granted, the easy answer of \"to help others in the same position at some point in the future\", may not do much to alleviate when it's spoken. The truth of the statement, however, will find root beneath all that water and once it abates, will sprout and produce fruit after its kind.\n\"And I saw a new Heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.\" (Revelation 21:1, emphasis mine)\nBecause it's not needed anymore. Simple enough right? Here's the thing about water though. It's all over the place, literally. It essential for life. But it can also be the deadliest substance known to man. Our bodies are two-thirds water, much like the earth. It'll put out a fire, but you really don't worry about that if you're drowning. Narrowing it down to specifics though, before the sea is done away with completely in your life, thank God for it. Ask Him to teach you why He allowed the \"waters to come in unto [your] soul\" in the first place. Because the more you grow with God, the more that point-in-time reason will begin to surface. Like Ararat after Noah's ordeal. There was a reason. There's always a reason. I've never been one to wait for Heaven and while away my days without possessing that kernel of understanding that would allow me to recolonize my world after the suffering had passed.\n\"And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.\" (Genesis 9:11)\ncounselling, depression, Genesis, God, Holy Spirit, Jesus, Noah, suffering, water\nApr 29 The Good Conspiracy Theory\nApr 26 Con Anima",

        "title": "JP's Music Blog: CD Review: The Morning Birds Pile On \"The Quickening\"",
        "raw_content": "CD Review: The Morning Birds Pile On \"The Quickening\"\nThe duo of Jennifer Thorington and Samuel Markus have created one of the most creative independent music groups of the last two years. The Morning Birds' debut album, \"Inspiration Point\" garnished them as one of the NRG Theory \"Artist Picks Of The Week\". The duo have been extra busy readying their new release \"The Quickening\" which features 22 songs ranging from acoustic pop to folk hip-hop.\nThe Morning Birds seem to feel most comfortable with the acoustic strumming of \"De Light\" and \"It's Then You'll Know\", but the duo does experiment a bit more. The duo capture the feeling of solitude on the opener \"Blue Moon\" with gentle flowing beats and keyboards to back-up Jennifer's innocent vocals. The dance beats of \"Resonance\" and \"Rose Horses\" show another side to the band's song-writing. The album features little snippets of music and voice combinations that show the duo having fun in the studio. The album also features some guest vocals by Trevor Hall on \"Oh Yeah!\" and Kieran Blake on \"Sunset Drive\". Samuel gets in on the vocal action in the alternative hip-hop sounding \"Take Control\", but the band excels when Jennifer's lyrics are free to roam.\nThe Morning Birds are also releasing a CD entitled \"B-Sides\" featuring more songs from \"The Quickening\" album sessions. The Morning Birds are also set to play the Kohouteck Festival at Pitzer College on April 23. Visit themorningbirds.com for more information on their new release and how to order your own copy.",

The album was written in reference to the Chernobyl tragedy in 1986 and what the effect of that devastation has on today\u2019s wilderness in the area.\nThe album begins with the simple beats of \u201cNew Carthage\u201d with very mellow, almost unnecessary, vocals provide the backdrop, highlighted by piano keys. The band sounds like a mellow version of the Smashing Pumpkins in the song \u201cHowe Howard,\u201d while the acoustic guitar strumming of \u201cTrident\u201d works well with the song\u2019s fragile vocals. Some songs like \u201cLend Me A Dollar\u201d and \u201cChipper\u201d still sound like they\u2019re in the developmental stages while \u201cRed Garbs\u201d makes you take notice. The album finishes up with the instrumental song \u201cPipe\u201d and the slow-ballad \u201cTurbine.\u201d\nThe new album, \u201cA Simple Beast\u201d is available now at februaryrecords.com and for more information on the band, please visit their facebook page at facebook.com/pages/Ghost-of-Chance/283039401524.",

        "raw_content": "A thousand times the speed of light\nBombenkinder is coming out with a bang and are unleashing A Thousand Times The Speed Of Light. Made up of long established music veterans, the band features Allen Nichols on vocal, Kirk Floyd on guitar, Jeff Wesolowski on bass and Eric Surratt on drums.\n\u201cThe Death Of Norma Jeane\u201d opens the record with some aggression. Strong vocals and a series of tough guitar riffs backed but prominent drumming. It\u2019s a solid opening track that opens the record with speed but also has a catchy feel to it with a clapping bridge and ending that makes it very fan interactive in a live setting. \u201cIn The Company Of Misery\u201d continues that driving feel and is highlighted by the bass. Allen\u2019s vocals have a slightly deeper grit to them that show range but are backed by Jeff\u2019s bass playing which give the track a very unique dynamic. \u201cStrangely Painless\u201d and its follower are two of my favorite tracks on the record due to the way the play off each other. A softer delivery on the vocals give it the closest deign to a ballad on the record but the track is tough as nails. Very straight forward with emphasis on the guitar it has a design that would allow it to stand up in a few different sub-genres. The track is very versatile. \u201cShaken\u201d is introduced by the bass and pairs up very well with its predeceasing track. The pairing delivers a unique 1, 2 punch that would appeal to many different music lovers. It has that same gentle but versatile vocal delivery and I would find it very hard to listen to one track without having to listen to the other. \u201cT.V. (Stuck In The Script)\u201d returns to that driving rock edge. Up tempo vocals are pushed to the forefront even more due to the chemistry of the rhythm section. Jeff and Eric \u2018s performance highlight this track. The pounding of the drums with the constant bass riffing is to be admired and complimented. \u201cMoving Picture\u201d puts the spotlight on Kirk. A higher pitched guitar performance makes for a very quality and unique listening experience. All the band members play their parts perfectly but Kirk\u2019s performance really sets \u201cMoving Picture\u201d apart from other tracks on the record. \u201cLacerate\u201d has a deeper feel to Allen\u2019s vocals which, again, show his range. This track has more of a grunge feel to it which I like because it shows the multitude of influences that can go into making a record that stands out and doesn\u2019t just get lumped in with the masses. \u201cTerrified ( For Allie Berlyn)\u201d brings the record to an end with a guitar feeling very similar to \u201cMoving Picture.\u201d Kirk delivers once again but what I actually like about this track is the slightly slower feel. What that allows for is each member of the band can be highlighted in their own well. Allen, Kirk, Eric and Jeff all have moments in this song that put the focus on them but doesn\u2019t take away from the record as a whole.\nOverall this is an outstanding record. Driving rock music with a multi-influence feel. The band is not made up of rookies and it shows. They have already shared the stage with many top bands with so much more to come. Keep your eyes on their events so you can get out there and support.",

        "raw_content": "Theatre Review: Trainspotting - King's Theatre, Edinburgh, 17 November 2017\nIt\u2019s not easy taking \u2018Trainspotting\u2019 to the theatre stage. Not when everyone in Scotland knows the story almost scene for scene by now and there\u2019s already been an off-the-wall, Edinburgh Festival Fringe edition which has toured the UK to mass critical acclaim.\nSafe to say though we were pleasantly surprised to see just how different Harry Gibson and director Gareth Nicholls' approach to Irvine Welsh\u2019s famous novel was to that of the 'Trainspotting Live' production which has already entertained theatre-goers in the capital for several August's passed.\nWhereas the Fringe production is in-your-face, techno-heavy throughout and pushes the vulgarity and unashamed-uncensorship of Welsh\u2019s book to the extremes, the production we watched at the King\u2019s Theatre felt more measured, more considered and more focused around Welsh's actual writing.\nAnyone who has read the book will now how it jumps from scene to scene and chapter to chapter almost without narrative - providing little windows into the lives of each of Welsh\u2019s protagonists and using brilliantly-unique, original working class narrators to keep you hooked.\nGibson and Nicholls took this formula and stuck it on stage. This was very much a literal interpretation of the book. Some scenes were even acted with just a spotlight on the one actor or actress in question, reading their monologue with no more than one prop in hand.\n\u200bThe genius of this is that with the right cast - and the cast really were magnificent - the words do all the work for you. The most notable exception of this was Alison\u2019s (Chloe-Anne Tylor) darkly humorous explanation of how to deal with pretentious university goers early in the second half. The set was minimal for Tylor's scene - one spotlight and one chair, but the audience was in stitches throughout and it\u2019s maybe one of the most memorable scenes of the play.\nTheatre Review: Love Song to Lavender Menace - The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh, 13 October 2017\n\u2018Love Song to Lavender Menace\u2019 is a two-man play which tells the tale of the eponymous \u2018Lavender Menace\u2019 - a lesbian, gay and feminist bookshop that opened on Forth Street (just off Broughton Street) in Edinburgh in 1982 and became the heart of the LGBT community in the Scottish capital before moving to a new location and changing names in 1987.\nThe narrative follows two shop assistants at the bookshop - Glen and Lewis - who are packing up the books from Lavender Menace in the run up to its fifth birthday, just before it is set to shut up shop, move home and change name.\nAs they pack, Lewis runs through a planned homage with Glen that he wants to perform as a present/farewell to the owners of the shop, Bob Orr and Sigrid Neilson. The playful homage explores the history and significance of the Lavender Menace and gay culture in Edinburgh in the 1980s, and does so by delving into the personal relationship and history between Glen and Lewis as well.\nIf that all sounds a little bit serious or mundane, it really couldn\u2019t be less so.\nThis is one of the most entertaining plays we\u2019ve seen in some time. Matthew McVarish and Pierce Reid are sensational as Glen and Lewis. The narrative dictates that, because of the manner in which they talk us through the history of the shop (through Lewis\u2019 homage), they must play a range of characters each, however briefly. And through quick voice changes, exaggerated movements or even occasionally through dance, they manage to succeed in doing this not only clearly and naturally but often with great comic effect.\nThe setting is established wonderfully through both a minimalist but cosy set and a playful, fast-paced soundtrack from the time period.\nThe set is a selection of creatively designed bookcases with glowing books that darken one-by-one as the play goes on and more books are packed away. The soundtrack meanwhile is all played diegetically through a cassette player, and is inspired largely by the character\u2019s memories from \u2018Fire Island\u2019, a nightclub which was formerly on Princes Street, and in the cloakroom of which the Lavender Menace was originally formed (the club was later bought over by a Waterstones, which still stands on Princes Street now).\nLong story short, there was a lot of energy around the performance and the soundtrack. Sometimes it was used for comedic effect, as with the perhaps predictable inclusion of \u2018It\u2019s Raining Men\u2019 or \u2018YMCA\u2019, or sometimes just to ramp up the mood for a while, as with Jimmy Somerville\u2019s \u2018You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)\u2019.\nThe writing from James Ley really is intelligent, informed and witty. The narrative does so well to time travel so convincingly and explore so much - from chilling legal acts, and how Section 28, a piece of criminalising legislation in the Thatcher era, threatened so many, to light-hearted former flings and police interaction at the time - while never feeling forced or breaking away from the personal connection between Glen and Lewis that drives the play.\nTheatre Review: Sunset Boulevard, The Edinburgh Playhouse, Edinburgh, 3 October 2017\nIf you ever need proof that the staging and performance of a musical can salvage a lousy script then look no further than the Curve production of Sunset Boulevard.\nLet\u2019s talk briefly about the characters and plot in Andrew Lloyd Webber\u2019s Tony Award winning musical. Lord knows how the script made it off the cutting room floor nevermind found its way into an award ceremony.\nThe musical is the story of down-on-his-luck Hollywood screenwriter Joe Gillis (Danny Mac), who stumbles upon the mansion of faded silent-film star Norma Desmond (Ria Jones). Norma lives alone with her loyal-to-a-fault butler Max Von Mayerling (Adam Pearce). She\u2019s effectively the Opera Ghost from Phantom of the Opera, but instead of torturing other people for love, she\u2019s intent on killing herself over it.\nShe convinces Joe to live in her mansion/lair to help her polish and shine the film script she\u2019s been working on while she\u2019s been hiding away from the world. Joe agrees and is paid handsomely for his efforts. He inevitably ends up in a romantic relationship with the actress, who is twice his age, and Norma threatens to commit suicide anytime he tries to leave. Seriously, there are increasingly few scenes as the musical goes on where she\u2019s not trying to commit suicide.\nMeanwhile, Joe also continues to help Betty Schaefer (Molly Lynch), the fiancee of seemingly his only friend Artie Green (Dougie Carter), work on adapting an old story of his for the big screen behind Norma\u2019s back. While doing this [spoiler], he also falls in love with Betty, and she with him, and they end up having an affair. This builds towards the inevitable confrontation which takes place at the climax of the musical.\nThe only problem with all of this? All of these characters are ridiculous, unsympathetic and incredibly dislikeable, which means by the time you reach the climax, you don\u2019t much care what happens.\nFeature | We Speak to Michael Pedersen of Neu! Reekie! About the Rise and Rise of Poetry at Music Festivals and Beyond\n\"You mentioned poetry at this music festival? I actually thought there was a bit of music at this poetry festival!\"\nThe man correcting our tongue-slip is Michael Pedersen, a familiar face on the Scottish poetry scene and one half of Neu! Reekie! - a literary, music and animation collective with an international output and regular nights across Scotland.\nWe're chatting to him at Electric Fields festival, where Neu! Reekie! have put on two full day-time line-ups across Friday and Saturday on a stage bearing their own name.\nNow in it's fourth year at Drumlanrig Castle in Dumfries and Galloway, Electric Fields boasts a whole heap of both big-name musicians and poets, from headliners Frightened Rabbit to former Scottish makar Liz Lochhead, Band of Horses to British poetry royalty Hollie McNish and Glass Animals to a woman quite familiar with both forms of art, Kate Tempest.\nThe article-opening quote from Michael came after we had asked him how he set about putting together the bill for the Neu! Reekie! stage, at a weekend which while perhaps not a straight-up music festival, is certainly one that most punters turn up to with music in mind.\n\"We're very particular,\" he says. \"So we've put on poets and artists that we know can go head to head with the musicians and who can win eardrums back from DJ-sounds spiralling into the back of our tent from elsewhere at the festival.\n\"We're sort of going to war with music today. Just between the hours of 13:00 and 18:00. Outside of that we're completely zen!\"\nThey certainly were. As well as the aforementioned Lochhead and McNish, Michael himself was reading poetry on the Neu! Reekie! stage alongside none other than Scott Hutchison from Frightened Rabbit. Michael armed with his book, Scott with his guitar.\nMichael continues: \"It's about luring them in with the likes of Scott doing a wee acoustic set in the tent before he then goes and headlines the whole fucking festival with Frightened Rabbit, and then all of a sudden it's flowing into Hollie McNish and our old makar Liz Lochhead and the people who were there to watch Scott do not leave.\n\"It's a cliche but people are always coming in and saying 'I didn't really expect to like that' or 'where can I buy her book?' or 'I only meant to pop in and stay for 10 minutes but I ended up staying an hour'. We're taking people by surprise and that's the way we like it.\"\nWe can vouch for Michael's reasoning as well. A packed-out tent did indeed watch him read from his latest collection 'Oyster', which Michael describes as \"a big, sexy book of poetry\", and which is illustrated by Scott Hutchison, the Fightened Rabbit frontman.\n\"He's done illustrations throughout it and a cover wrap around it,\" Michael tells us. \"I guess a lot of people don't know that Scott did illustration at art school. It's technically, in his words, the only thing that he's trained to do. So it's really nice to collaborate on something which is outside what he's commercially known for, and I think he relishes the opportunity to do it too.\"\nTheatre Review: Creatives (Preview Show), 2 August, Pleasance 1, Edinburgh Fringe 4pm\nNow, first thing thing is first. It\u2019s not entirely fair to review a show based on a preview performance. The whole point of a preview is to get the show up to scratch and iron out the creases. So we've noted that and have stuck to the plot of 'Creatives' in general, the writing and the cast. The things with previews are that things that are likely to change before the first official show.\nA perfect example of this can be seen in the fact that Irvine Welsh and Don De Grazia\u2019s \u2018Creatives\u2019 was delayed for around 15 minutes when we went to see it on August 2 after \u2018The Ping Pong Ball Effect\u2019, the show on before them at Pleasance 1, accidentally released 1000 ping pong balls across the theatre during their performance.\nWe imagine for both their own sanity, and that of the \u2018Creatives\u2019 team, they will be attempting to avoid doing this again. But onto the show.\nThe Edinburgh Fringe is back! How exciting. We thought we\u2019d dive straight into our hit list and tick off one of local celebrity Irvine Welsh\u2019s plays (he has two at the fringe) early doors.\n'Creatives' is an hour and 15 minutes of pop-opera theatre following the narrative of a class of songwriters lead by faded rocker Paul Brenner, who find themselves competing in some kind of end-of-semester competition to win $5,000 judged by former student-turned-sell-out-rapper Sean O\u2019Neil. Imagine O\u2019Neil as a Drake-type but less popular.\nIf that plotline sounds a bit fanciful - why would a songwriting class be holding a competition between themselves for $5k? - it\u2019s because it is.\nTo be honest, the only way around that information is just accept what\u2019s happening and move on. Once you\u2019ve done that, it\u2019s actually an enjoyable watch. Though the plot only gets more absurd.\nThe play is half-musical, half-theatre. There\u2019s a lot of songs in there, and Mark Whyte, who put the original score together, has done a solid enough job with them. Each of the songs fits its respective narrative well, is solidly written and fit for purpose. That said, there aren\u2019t any particularly catchy or standout efforts that you\u2019ll be humming in the days to come.\nThe Irvine Welsh influence feels very sporadic. Those who have read any of his books - Trainspotting of course being the most famous - will know that he writes in Scottish dialect often, his books are often filled with crass cursing, and they\u2019re almost always hilarious.\nThere are times when the script is unmistakably Welsh, and times when you\u2019d be hard-pressed to believe he was involved at all. There are definitely a few laugh-out-loud one-liners in there, though.\nInside Look | Hidden Door Arts Festival Day 5 and 6 \u2013 The Old Leith Theatre, Edinburgh, May 30 & 31, 2017\nSonnet Youth's Spoken Word house party. Photo by Robbie Ambrose, JFC\nWe\u2019ve set up camp at Hidden Door Arts Festival at the Old Leith Theatre in Edinburgh in the past week.\nIf you\u2019ve not heard of it before then it\u2019s the 10-day arts extravaganza bringing together emerging and established talents from the worlds of music, spoken word, theatre, dance, art and more, and year on year it\u2019s a fantastic showcase of some of the finest talent that Edinburgh, Scotland and beyond have to offer.\nIf you\u2019ve missed our coverage so far we\u2019ve brought you an inside look at Hidden Door 2017 (which tells you a bit more about the festival and the remit) and a venue focus on the beautiful Old Leith Theatre, which the Hidden Door team have brought back from the dead after laying dormant since the 1980s.\nHere\u2019s a quick overlook of the action from across days five and six at Hidden Door \u2013 from guitars and theatre to music and, err, a Robert Pattinson-themed poetry showcase.\nInside Look | Venue Focus: The Old Leith Theatre - We Explore the Venue Behind Hidden Door 2017\nAll photos by Robbie Ambrose, for JFC\nYou may struggle to believe it in light of recent announcements in the city, but not every arts venue in Edinburgh is closing. Some are actually coming back from the dead.\nAfter heavily indulging in the antics at Hidden Door 2016 at King\u2019s Stables last summer we were sad to hear that the festival was changing venues for Hidden Door 2017 \u2013 until that is, we heard where the move was going to be taking the festival.\nThe Old Leith Theatre on Ferry Road might not be as central as King\u2019s Stables but that\u2019s about where the issues start and end. The place feels completely magical. Here are some snaps from JFC's photographer Robbie Ambrose.",

I can\u2019t wait to see her, to get to know he likes and dislikes, what she\u2019s passionate about and what makes her tick,\u201d Matthew added. \u201cI\u2019ve never been more excited to meet someone I know nothing about.\u201d\nBombshell secret: He\u2019s a former stripper and certainly not a reality TV rookie!\nWhile his bio reads that he\u2019s a meditation coach (whatever that means) Dino Hara apparently has a rather naughty occupation to add to his resume.\nNW has revealed that Dino actually spent some time as a stripper and pageant king before dating his last partner!\n\u201cBefore I met my ex of three years, I was a male entertainer for like a year and a half,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI wore different sorts of uniforms - army guy, police guy\u2026 But I guess I was doing it for different purposes.\u201d\nBut if your partner says that they recognise ol\u2019 Dino, don\u2019t be too concerned that it\u2019s because of his past years as an entertainer\u2026It turns out that the 34-year-old actually previously appeared on another reality TV dating show, First Dates.\nBombshell Secret: He\u2019s a former actor on a long running Aussie Soap who\u2019s never dated and we quote a woman who\u2019s \u201cbig\u201d\nWe have no doubt that actor/tradie Sam Ball will bring the drama to this season of MAFS with his unwavering good looks and upfront honesty.\nHaving previously appeared on Home and Away and Secret City, Sam is now looking to settle down with someone who he describes as a \u201cconfident woman who sees beyond his good looks\u201d.\nBut speaking of looks, the ripped fella did admit that he\u2019s a gym-lover who\u2019s only ever dated women with a similar interest in the past.\n\u201cI\u2019ve never dated girls [that] big,\u201d he told NW adding that he \u201cloves any form of fitness - yoga, gym, action sports\u2026you name it, I do it!\u201d\nBombshell Secret: She\u2019s got a deal breaker but it\u2019s not what you might think\nWe have a feeling that things are going to have to get pretty serious pretty quickly between this make-up artist from Sydney and her MAFS hubby after she admitted that her deal breaker in a relationship is if things aren't working between the sheets.\n\u201cSex is a massive part of a relationship,\u201d the 30-year-old said to NW. \u201cIntimacy is part of getting close to someone and I feel like if that isn\u2019t good then\u2026I don\u2019t know - it\u2019s important to me! I want to be intimate with my partner, I don\u2019t want it to be one of those wasp kind of relationships.\u201d\nAlthough TBH is this much of a bombshell? Isn\u2019t bad sex a deal breaker for pretty much everyone?\nEither way, contestants don\u2019t typically get intimate with each other early on in the show so we bet producer\u2019s are hoping that Martha will be the one to get the ball rolling.\nOr we reckon they\u2019ve got their fingers crossed that she\u2019ll try and initiate a couple swap like the resident villain from last season Davina, which she certainly admitted she's open to.\n\u201cI guess if you\u2019re not feeling something with the person that you\u2019ve been matched with, I think it would be natural that you start to look elsewhere,\u201d admitted Martha.\nBombshell Secret: She\u2019s constantly attracting men that aren\u2019t available\n27-year-old Store Manager Liz has never been in a long-term relationship herself, but that doesn\u2019t mean that she hasn\u2019t had her share of experience with married men.\nIn fact, she admitted that in the six short-term relationships that she has had in her life, she\u2019s made the unfortunate discovery that they\u2019re either married or already in a committed relationship.\nBut don\u2019t think that her bad luck in the love department means that she\u2019s ready to settle for just anyone. If Liz doesn\u2019t like what she sees when she walks down the aisle on her MAFS wedding day she\u2019s more than prepared to pull a runaway bride!\nBombshell secret: Now we ain\u2019t saying she\u2019s a gold digger\u2026But girl only wants a man with moolah\nThis 28-year-old Legal assistant is heading into this show with no doubt in her mind about what she\u2019s looking for in a fella. And it turns out her list doesn\u2019t go too far past his wallet.\n\u201cWhen I envision my future, I can see myself being highly successful, so that\u2019s sort of the reason I\u2019d prefer someone who has money,\u201d she said.\nAlthough she was quick to add that she wouldn\u2019t break up with someone if they didn\u2019t have the cash right then and there. But he\u2019d definitely have to be working towards it.\n\u201cLike if he had ambitions and was highly driven and he just wasn\u2019t there yet, then no,\u201d Ines continued to NW.\n\u201cBut if he was like content with being a low-achiever in life, then yeah I would.\u201d Looks like this lot is certainly going to keep us on our toes this season!\nMarried At First Sight 2019 airs on Monday 28th January at 7:30pm.\nThe Trailer For Married At First Sight 2019\nMAFS 2019: Mercedes Corby Was Meant To Be ...\nMelissa From MAFS 2018 Just Got Enagaged\nThe MAFS Secrets Channel Nine Didn\u2019t Want ...\nSecret Pregnancy Rocks Married At First Sight\nDevastating Truth About What Has Happened ...",

        "raw_content": "Top 20 attractions of Colombo - Sri Lanka's capital\nSeema Malakaya in Colombo's Beira Lake\nColombo is not the most amazing capital of the world. And visitors in a hurry or eager to see the most attractive places of Sri Lanka should prefer to spend their holiday in less noisy and less dusty and much more charming parts of the island.\nHowever, some cultural tourists do not want to leave a country without visiting the capital. Others have already seen many other places in Sri Lanka and like to visit Colombo during their second or third holiday. Some business people and stopover travellers have to spend some time in Colombo anyway and may wish to learn more about the places of interest of the city. Last not least, Colombo has the largest variety and the best hotels in Sri Lanka. People who like to enjoy the comfort of high-class hotels and the excitement of the busiest city will like to stay a few nights in Colombo. So here we present a Top 20 list of what could be worth a visit or is recommendable for your Colombo itinerary.\nA description of Colombo's attractions with more photos and arranged by neighbourhoods can be found on our main Colombo page here...\nPettah is the busiest and most virulent quarter of Colombo, with a variety of open air bazaars and roofed markets. The streets are packed with people and carts and motorbikes. Here you can study authentic Southasian city life. It\u2019s definitely not a tourist shopping mall. Each street is a department of its own, selling specific goods often produced at the same place. That\u2019s the traditional kind of markets in Asia and shopping in Sri Lanka. Furthermore, Pettah is a melting pot of Muslim, Tamil and Sinhalese traders and customers. It may be noisy and nerving to walk along the crowded street, but don\u2019t miss it to get in touch with Sri Lanka. An oasis of peace amidst the hurly-burly of Pettah is the Dutch Colonial Museum in the Old Dutch House, a restored original building from the 17th century.\nSri Lanka\u2019s National Museum in Colombo is a must-see for all lovers of ancient Buddhist art. The most important Buddhist sculptures and carvings from all parts of the island are collected in the National Museum for safekeeping and documentation. Some of them belong to the masterpieces of Asian art. You can also study the Kandy and colonial period and works of traditional folk art in the museum.\nKelaniya is a north-eastern suburb of Colombo. The Kelaniya temple is the most significant Buddhist shrine in the Western Province, because it is sanctified by a visit of the Buddha. Traditional Kandyan style paintings as well as works of 20th century art decorate the rooms and tell you many episodes of Buddhist history in Sri Lanka. An adjoining temple is dedicated to the guardian deity of the west of the island, Vibhishina, who is venerated by Hindus and Buddhists alike.\nNelum Pokuna is a masterpiece of modern architecture in the heart of Colombo. It is named after President Mahinda Rakapakse and was financed with Chinese help. It can also serve as a convention hall. The outline of the theatre is inspired by the shape of a lotos flower with its eight petals. The same eight-petal layout can be found in ancient Sinhalese architecture, namely at a bath in Polonnaruwa, which is also called \u201cNelum Pokuna\u201d, meaning \u201cLotos Pond\u201d.\nColombo\u2019s promenade in the city centre is a meeting point for locals and tourists alike, particularly at weekends. The green stretches between the colonial buildings of the former parliament in the north and the Galle Face Hotel in the south. Many stalls along the shore offer snacks and drinks. Occasionally, public mass gatherings and festivals are held on this largest square in central Colombo.\nBeira Lake consists of 2 parts, which are called \"Greater Beira\" and \"Lesser Beira\". Indeed, they are two different lakes in Colombo City, but interconnected by a system of channels. Lesser Beira Lake, bordering Nawam Mawatha and near the Indian Ocean, is the main attraction. The Seema Malaka Temple is situated pituresquely on islands in the lake. Due to the walking track around the lake and a swan boat service, Lesser Beira Lake is a popular evening spot at Colombo's suburb \"Slave Island\", wthin walking distance from many hotels. Greater Beira Lake at the border to Colombo Fort and Pettah is the home of the Colombo Rowing, regattas between clubs or schools take place here. \"Lakehouse\", one of Sri Lanka's most renowned publishers, is located at the northern end of Great Beira.\n7. Independence Square with Independence Hall\nIndependence Square is situated in the Cinnamon Gardens district of Colombo. It is dominated by the Independence Memorial Hall, which is built for commemoration of Sri Lanka\u2019s independence from the British rule, which came into effect on the 4th of February 1948. The monument was built at the location where the formal independence ceremony took place. In front of the Independence Hall is a statue of the first prime minister, Don Stephen Senanayake. The Independence Day celebrations are held here annually. The design of the Independence Hall is based on the traditional wooden architecture of the Audience Hall (Magul Maduwa) in Kandy.\nThe Zoo of Colombo, also called National Zoological Gardens of Sri Lanka, is located in the neighbourhood of Dehiwala. It\u2019s one of the oldest zoological gardens in Asia. Founded as Colombo Zoo already by John Hagenbeck in the late 1920s and united with the local Dehiwala animal collection in 1936, the National Zoological Gardens today exhibits 3000 animals of 350 species, it also places an emphasis on wildlife conservation and biological education. The Dehiwala Zoo contributes to exchange schemes with other zoological gardens for breeding purposes. The zoo area has been designed into a beautiful garden of colourful flowers and water fountains.\nMount Lavinia is the name of a rocky promontory of Dehiwala, which is a neighbourhood of Colombo. Mount Lavinia is famous for its stylish colonial hotel close to the best beach of Colombo. It is built up around the original residence of Sir Thomas Maitland, British Governor of Ceylon 1805\u20131811. At a party held on the day of his arrival on the island, he fell in love with a local mestizo dancer called Lovina. He then met her regularly in his residence. Mount Lavinia has a romantic reputation ever since.\nDiyawanna Oya, also called Parliament Lake, is the landmark lake of Colombo within Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte, 15 km east of the city centre Sri Lanka. The new Sri Lankan Parliament Building was built in the early 1980s on the 5 hectare island called Duwa, which forms the centre of the lake, using dredgings from the surrounding marshlands. The island was the site where the palace of the King Vikramabahu III's powerful Minister Nissaka Alakesvara had been situated during the Kotte period in the late Middle Ages. The Parliament building was designed by Sri Lanka's most renowned architect, Deshamanya Geoffrey Bawa. On the 29th of April 1982, the new Parliamentary Complex was declared open by President Jayewardene.\nGangarama close to Beira Lake is Colombo\u2019s most popular Buddhist temple with tourists and a must-see for most individual travellers visiting Colombo. Gangarama is a typical local temple where Buddhist devotees fullfill their rituals. For example you can observe this at the Maha Bodhi Tree in the courtyard. At the same time, Gangarama is also an exhibition of Buddhist culture and an eduational centre for Buddhist studies. The buildings are from the 20th century, but the history of this place dates back to the early times of Buddhism on the island 2000 years ago.\n12. Kailawasanathan Swami Devasthanam Kovil\nSri Kailasanathar Swami Devashthanam is a Kovil hidden between railway lines, not far from Colombo Fort Railway Station, but only reachable from the opposite site. Actually, Maradana Station is closer to the access road than Comlombo Fort. The area was once called \u201cCaptain\u2019s garden\u201d by the British. The Tamil Kovil is said to habe been built here already during the Portuguese period. Anyway, it\u2019is the oldest Hindu temple in Colombo. Today, it\u2019s one of the largest and most colourfull Tamil temples in Colombo, also frequented by some Sinhalese Buddhists. Originally, it was a family temple.\nLocated centrally in Colombo downtown, this park provides welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. It\u2019s located just opposite the \"White House\", which is Colombo\u2019s old city hall, a landmark colonial building due to its dome. The colonial name of the gardens was \u201cVictoria Park\u201d. But after independence it was renamed, Viharamahadevi being the mother of the Sinhalese national hero, King Dutugemunu (Dutthagamani in Pali language). Viharamahadevi was born in the area that\u2019s now Colombo. An ornate golden Buddha can be seen at the entrance of the park. Squirrels are running around in the lush green, Viharamahadevi Park also offers plenty of activities for younger children.\nThe Wolvendaal Church is the oldest still existing Christian house of prayer on the island of Sri Lanka. It\u2019s from the Dutch colonial period, and it looks so. It`s built with assistance of the VOC (Dutch East India Company) in a typical Dutch Reformed style of architecture. One notable feature is that it has no altar. The congregation is surrounding the priest, who delivers his sermons in the very centre of the church. The decoration is spare, that\u2019s typical for Calvinist churches, too. Much of the interior such as the pews is original, from the mid 18th century. You will find Dutch inscriptions on gravestones here. The Dutch called this area \u201cWolf\u2019s Dale\u201d, or Wolvendaal, because of the jackals roaming here. The church is constructed on a hillock near the harbour in such a way that ships entering the harbor had a clear view on it.\nThe Colombo home of Sri Lanka\u2019s most celebrated architect, Geoffrey Bawa, is simply called Number 11. It is situated in 33rd Lane, Bagatelle Road, Colombo 3, on a charming secluded cul-de-sac. Number 11 is open to the public for guided tours by appointments, offering a unique opportunity to look through Bawa's city home.\n16. The Central Point - Economic History Museum\nThe \"Central Point\" is situated in Chatham Street, right in the centre of Colombo Fort, near the clock tower and at the back of the Dutch Hospital. The museum will give you a glimpse of the history of Sri Lanka, particularly about currencies in ancient and modern Sri Lanka and international trade relations. There is also information about the economic history of other Commonwealth countries. The \u201cCentral Point\u201d building, boasting of Corinthian pillars and roofed with a circular glass dome, is an attraction in itself, since it\u2019s facade and interior have been wonderfully restored to its colonial glory, thanks to the support of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL). Earlier on, the magnificent building was used by the army.\nThe Lighthouse of Colombo, almost 30 metres in height, is operated by the Sri Lanka Ports Authority. It is located at Galbokka Point on the waterfront of Colombo Fort\u2019s marine drive. This lighthouse was built in 1952 and opened by the first Prime Minster after independence, D.S. Senanayake. Due to its placement in a military security zone access was limited, particularly during the civil war before 2009. The view from the viewing gallery of the lighthouse to the growing skyline of Colombo is amazing. There are no entry fees. The lighthouse area will be replaced by the planned \u201cFlood City\u201d, an artificial peninsula of Colombo.\nSri Ponnambalam Vanesar Temple is located in the Kochchikade area of Colombo, in walking distance from the Kotahena bus stand. This Hindu temple is designed according to the Indian vedic cosmos resembling a human body. Visitors are allowed to participate and observe the regular pujas but should avoid to take pictures without special permit.\nLocated in Bambalapitiya area to the south of Colombo\u2019s city centre, this is a delightful and peaceful temple with traditional paintings. Concerning the buildings, the Isipathanaramaya Temple is one of the oldest Buddhist Viharas in Colombo, Sri Lanka. It was constructed in 1916 by a wealthy merchant in memory of his son who was executed by British colonial officials. In honour of the temple, the former Greenlands Road close to the temple was renamed Isipathana Mawatha and the nearby Greenlands College Isipathana Maha Vidyalay in the late 1950s.\nThe former Colombo Terminus Station, opened in 1865 was closed in 1906 and replaced by the Maradana Station, due to a new railway scheme in Colombo area. The old terminus station now is the home to the National Railway Museum. Currently it houses two locos and some old waggons and provides information about railway history in an indoor gallery.",

        "title": "A History of Livingston County, Missouri. 1937",
        "raw_content": "Green Township, lying between Shoal Creek and Grand River, contains much land usually covered by water during overflow. Bluffs and hills are found along the river. The prairie land of the township is rich soil, adapted to diversified crops. Fruit is grown here extensively. Brick shale, found in abundance, has proved of great value to the community. There is sand stone, suitable to building, along the west fork of the river.\nIt was the western part of this township that Samuel E. Todd, in 1831, made the first settlement in Livingston County. By 1840, there were a goodly number of settlers, The township was named \"in honor of Jineral Green of the Revolution War,\" so wrote William E. Pearl. Nathaniel Greene always spelled his name with the final \"e,\" but the township has retained the spelling given it by Mr. Pearl.\nUtica, just north of United States Highway No. 36, was laid out April 27, 1837. Because Todd's Mill was operating here, the location was considered a good one. Mr. Roderick Matson gave the town the name of Utica in honor of his native city in New York. Next to \"Jimtown,\" Utica is the oldest town in the county.\nIn 1837, from boards split by hand and the finishing lumber sawed at Todd's Mill, Mr. Henry Stover put up a little frame store, kept first by a man named Taylor.\nThe Hannibal & St. Joe Railroad, in 1857, brought a boom to the town. Merchants came to buy their goods in Utica. Shippers journeyed with their stock from Carrollton and other towns south. The displeasure of the citizens over the first location of the depot resulted in track-soapings, and finally a fire; afterward, the depot site was changed.\nIn the election of 1860, so an old legend runs, Lincoln received one vote in Green Township. A few quarrelsome investigators learned that a Methodist preacher was the \"offending\" voter. In revenge, they started to ride the poor fellow on a rail, but as they were passing the home of Annie Fletcher, they attempted to remove a picket from the fence surrounding the yard. Annie was drawn to the door by the commotion, and, sympathizing with the poor victim, she produced a pistol with which she ran away the disturbers and freed the unfortunate preacher.\nMr. Hoy, who built a beautiful brick home in Utica, had a most unpleasant experience during the war. One version of the story goes that a friend of the family, a lady from the South, was visiting in the Hoy home when Federal soldiers approached the house one afternoon. In fury the visiting lady stepped to the porch and waved a rebel flag. No sooner had she done so than the Federalists started shooting. To this day it is said the marks made by the musket balls are visible in the brick of the old house.\nThe township was about equally divided during the Civil War; a company for each side was formed. It is said that one day the stars and stripes, waving over one of the stores, was replaced by a rebel banner, but the man who hauled down the American flag became the next year a prominent officer in the Federal militia.\nAs early as July 19, 1856, the Masonic Lodge organized a chapter in the town. The early churches were Utica Methodist Church, organized in 1868; and the Second Advent in 1878. In 1877, a petition was granted by the Bishop and the Catholics built their church. In 1873, the \"Utica Herald\" was established, then stopped completely in 1876, and re established in January, 1877.\nMr. Billy McCloughan, who now lives in Chillicothe, remembers that Utica, during these years, was so busy, so filled with people that when his father with Billy and the rest of the family arrived in Utica in 1864, there was no room at all in any hotel, so the McCloughan family found it necessary to sleep on the floor of the lobby. Mr. McClougban remembers, too, that the family bought tickets in Indiana for Chillicothe, but so small and insignificant was the town in those days, the train did not stop. Thus it was the railroad gave the family a free ride on into Utica where they stayed.\nUtica at one time boasted a fine five-story mill, built by the Braden brothers from Iowa. It ran profitably for several years, when circumstances resulted in its sale. It was owned by Rudolph and Redwine, and at another time by \"Water House\" Johnson. It was the latter person of whom people whispered he had much money buried somewhere, but the somewhere remains a mystery. When this old mill was built, the dam was on the river; but later years brought the drainage ditch to straighten the river and now it flows a mile and a half north of the old dam, which has disappeared underneath the sand and mud. The mill itself had disappeared before. A former mill at this site caught fire in 1874, (no one knows how), on the top story and literally burned down. With a river of water at hand, the citizens were forced to watch the old mill burn.\nThe brick plant, now built at this site, has always done well. Since March 1, 1935, it has been owned and operated by The Midland Brick and Tile Company. Here building brick is prepared on a large scale. At one time there came to Utica a man by the name of Adam Schmidt, from Quincy, Illinois. He established a large furniture factory, a grist mill, and a saw mill, all as one business. The industry, which was doing well in 1864, ran profitably for many years. A native of Switzerland, Flavian Bonderer, born in 1827, came early to Utica where he established the business of burning lime, making brick, and contracting rock. In Utica, the late Judge James M. Davis, for eleven years Judge of the 36th Judicial District, spent several years as a young lawyer. Among the old settlers still living in the township is Herman Deitrich, who for ten years was Consul General to Equador. He was born in Utica in 1866, and though he still claims it as his \"home,\" as does everyone who has lived there, he now resides in Chillicothe.\nMrs. George Rice came to Utica in 1865, when she was eleven years of age. Here she has lived since. For sixty-six years she has been a faithful member and worker in the Baptist Church. Mr. and Mrs. Rice, who were married by the Reverend Wadley sixty-three years ago the 2nd of July, now live a mile west of Utica on the site of the old home built by the father of Elisha Wells. Mrs. Rice tells us that when they came to Utica by train, they stopped on the other side of the river because the bridge was not safe. Although they were not far from Utica, they were from five o'clock in the afternoon until the next day noon finishing the trip.\nOther well remembered names in Utica are: Mike Ludwig, who came from Germany in 1880; Mack Williams; Roderick Matson, and Doctor Mitchell. George Walz is now the oldest citizen born in Green Township who is still living there. Fred Bloom claims the honor of being second oldest.\nUtica's Bank, of which G. W. Kent was cashier, closed a few years ago with every depositor paid in full. There is no doctor in the town at present, but Dr. Carpenter, who now practices in Chillicothe, came from Utica, and among its citizens he has a large practice.\nFruit growing is still an important industry in Green Township. Years ago there were two large nurseries, the one owned by Stone and Harper, and another owned by George Weatherby. The Central Orchards and the Moore Brothers' orchards, near Utica, are the largest in the county.\nIt is said that no finer people exist than those who settled in this neighborhood. The many old settler names still found in Utica makes a long and interesting list; for this community, one of the oldest in the county, is also one of the most loved and respected.",

        "raw_content": "A bridge is a fixed (non-removable) restoration that can correct several cosmetic and dental health problems. Dental bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. Our skilled dentist, Dr. McMillon, may recommend a dental bridge in order to:\nMaintain facial structure and volume\nPrevent the remaining teeth from drifting into the space left by the missing teeth\nRestore your chewing and speaking ability\nUpgrade a removable partial denture to a permanent dental restoration\nThere are a variety of different types of dental bridges. Dr. McMillon will help you determine which option best fits your particular circumstance. The most commonly used type of bridge is the porcelain fixed bridge because it closely resembles your natural teeth. This type of bridge consists of two dental crowns that are placed on two anchoring teeth (abutment teeth). The crowns are attached to the pontics (artificial teeth) that fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth.\nBridges, like most other dental restorations, may eventually require replacements or may need to be re-cemented due to regular wear. This is the case with many dental restorations, and bridges in Louisville, Kentucky are designed to be aesthetic, long-lasting restorations for years to come. To learn more about how a dental bridge can enhance the beauty, function, and health of your smile, we invite you to call or visit us at McMillon Family and Cosmetic Dentistry.",

        "raw_content": "No one puts their effort into being second best. You know you're great but more importantly, you need the world to know it too. You need to walk the walk and talk the talk but most of all, you need to look like you can do them both. You can hire a designer to realize your goal but hiring a great one means that you make the right choice the first time, gaining superior results while maximizing resources.\nThe Right Professional For The Job\nAlthough artistic ability is paramount when selecting a graphic designer, it shouldn't be the only consideration. Here are six other attributes that are crucial when hiring the right professional for the job:\n1. Eat. Breathe. Live.\nAn authentic designer's mind is never running your standard nine to five. They are in a constant state of creation and discovery and they wouldn't have it any other way. They live for challenges, relish change, and are driven to action. It's this passion for their calling that separates the designer you want from the one you become stranded with. A person who invests so much of themselves into what they love will never settle for second best and as a result, you won't have to either.\nDesign is communication. Every logo, business card, or marketing campaign you develop needs to forge a lasting impression and achieving these results can be difficult without the right designer to collaboratively transform your essence into an effective visual identity. The ability to facilitate this process verbally and in written word in a coherent manner is not a skill that all designers possess, but one that's not impossible to find. Listening is just as important as speaking and a great designer does both with equal adeptness.\n3. Purpose Before Ego\nIt pays to listen to your designer and heed their advice. They are, after all, the one with the skills and experience, but it all comes down to getting what you pay for. The key word in that sentence being \"you\". A designer that treats your project like their own personal art exhibit and ignores your feedback to preserve their \"artistic integrity\" is someone not acting in your best interest. A great graphic designer welcomes your input, offers direction where it's most valuable, and delivers the closest solution to your vision as possible.\nBeing a skilled graphic designer isn't only about taking an idea and transforming it into something tangible. It's about strategizing for the future. How will the asset be used? Who is the target audience? What message must it convey? What sizes and formats will it need to conform to? Understanding the ultimate purpose of the work is what gives it its true value. Presenting a finished product that fits the underlying scope but is constrained by a lack of forethought is a waste of time, potential, and resources.\n5. Technically Speaking\nSimply owning a copy of Adobe Illustrator does not a graphic designer make. There is much more to great design than knowing how to use a program to make pretty pictures. A great graphic designer understands concepts such as spacial relationships, colour theory, typography, conversion optimization and how to employ them all effectively. A strong familiarity with current printing techniques, packaging processes, and promotional product guidelines bring additional value that cannot be replaced.\nContradictory to preconceptions, a keen mind for business and a professional manner are both invaluable traits in a graphic designer. Punctuality, communication, organization, and planning are frequently underestimated when entering a creative relationship but professionalism is never a downside in any situation. Don't be fooled into believing that proposals and contracts are unnecessary roadblocks in your path to success either. A great graphic designer knows that clarity and accountability are vital to everyone involved on both sides of the table.\nHiring the right graphic designer to bring your company's vision to life can be a fundamental factor in establishing your brand. Lumin8 exists to make sure you not only hire the right one, you hire a great one. Ask us how we do it...",

After a delay in its production due to lead actor Dylan O\u2019Brien\u2019s on-set accident in 2016, the Gladers are finally back to put an end to the film series and their WCKD (pronounced as \u201cwicked\u201d) enemies. Given the chance to see the movie prior to its nationwide release here in the Philippines, I\u2019d have to tell you: Death Cure is way better than the first two films. Mild spoilers below!\nThe Wes Ball-directed adaptation of James Dashner\u2019s trilogy has been produced under 20th Century Fox and T.S. Nowlin\u2019s screenplay. Maze Runner: The Death Cure picks up roughly six months after the happenings on Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, where the survivors of The Flare \u2013 a disease that has wiped out the world\u2019s population, realized that they must find a safe place away from the influence of WCKD. Before that plan falls into place, Thomas embarks on a mission to rescue Minho (played by Ki Hong Lee) at the WCKD headquarters, where his dear friend was being held and treated as a lab rat. We might have seen a lot of action and heartbreaking scenes in the past, but those are nothing compared to the latest installment.\nDylan O\u2019Brien, left, and Thomas Brodie-Sangster in 20th Century Fox\u2019s \u2018Maze Runner: The Death Cure\u2019.\nIt has action, explosions, zombies, spy-like tactics, romance, brotherly love, heartbreak, death, surprises, and a little bit of everything a young adult would look for in a book or movie. But unlike ordinary movies, this one has a special place in my heart because of how it emphasized that relationship with friends can weigh more than any love interest, especially when trust has already been tainted for the latter.\nAs O\u2019Brien recalls: \u201cIn the first movie the challenge was to solve the maze, to break out of the glade. A big part of the group, led by Gally, wanted no part of that. They looked at the glade as their home and they were safe. In Scorch Trials we were out of the maze, had a building to live in and were taken care of but there was a price to pay. In this film, in Death Cure, Thomas wants to break in to the place that caused all of this to save his friend Minho, which he promised he\u2019d do. Most thought it was a crazy plan.\u201d\nMaybe they can pass as the Three Musketeers of this generation! (Photo courtesy of 20th Century Fox)\nAlthough there are deaths that I never would\u2019ve wanted to see, there are also deaths that made me applaud for joy. Heartbreaks here are not caused by a romantic pairing\u2019s breakup, but by friendships that have been cut too short.\nJoining Dylan O\u2019Brien are Kaya Scodelario as Teresa; Ki Hong Lee as Minho; Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Newt; Dexter Darden as Frypan, Patricia Clarkson as Dr. Ava Paige, Giancarlo Esposito as Jorge, Rosa Salazar as Brenda, Aidan Gillen as Janson, Barry Pepper as Vince, and Walton Goggins as Lawrence.\nI\u2019m giving the best actor award to Thomas Brodie-Sangster and best villain award to Aidan Gillen in this. I just love their acting, no matter what movie or series they\u2019re in!\nCatch the WCKD final chapter by watching it on IMAX screens starting January 24, 2018. IMAX screens enable moviegoers to watch in an expanded ratio that is 26% bigger than those of average cinemas. That\u2019s 26% more of the action, suspense, and adventure!

While I was always confident that the ICAC case would be dismissed, it was still no joy to have to defend myself against a false and serious accusation, and to have to live with this terrible uncertainty for 10 months.\n\u201cNevertheless, I am grateful to everyone who stuck with me during this period, including my family, friends, colleagues, clients and business associates. I know who they are and will always be there for them as they were for me.\u201d\nMr Gwee, who worked with Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) in Singapore, Hong Kong and Shanghai for more than a decade, was Managing Director and Head of Private Banking for China before he left in 2011 to set up an investment firm which has been reorganised to become ACPG, which provides consultancy to family offices on investments and philanthropy.\nSeven years later, in January 2018, following the conviction of Teng Wen-Chung, former Chairman of Taiwanese insurance company Singfor Life Insurance Ltd, for embezzlement, the ICAC charged Mr Gwee for being an agent in accepting an advantage. Mr Gwee was alleged to have accepted HK$150,000 in August 2011 in relation to the handling of Teng\u2019s accounts and those of his companies\u2019 accounts at SCB.\nDuring last month\u2019s court hearing, Mr Gwee\u2019s lawyer, Senior Counsel Peter Duncan submitted that his client had no case to answer. He said the ICAC had failed to produce evidence to show that the HK$150,000 was paid to Mr Gwee in relation to the handling of Teng\u2019s and Singfor\u2019s accounts with the bank, including securing approval for an increase to US$100 million in credit to them.\nMr Duncan said the prosecution was unable to provide a focused and consistent explanation for why the money was paid. While Mr Gwee did not deny receiving the money, he maintained it was a payment for rare wines that he had bought on Teng\u2019s behalf.\nMr Duncan also noted that \u201cbribes are invariably paid in a clandestine manner. This was not the case here \u2014 a transfer between banks which was easily traceable. It does not make sense that a seasoned banker such as Mr Gwee would have permitted such a traceable and corrupt payment.\u201d\nThe ICAC, Mr Duncan argued, built its case on certain perceived irregularities surrounding the opening of Teng\u2019s and related company accounts, and credit advanced to them.\nHowever, Magistrate Lam agreed that Mr Gwee played no part in the opening of the accounts, which was assigned to the relationship management team. Moreover, the credit facilities to Teng and his companies were approved by the bank\u2019s relevant committees and there was no evidence to show that Mr Gwee knew about the ownership of the collateral for the loan, or that he was concealing any information from the bank.\nThe Magistrate also noted that the alleged HK$150,000 bribe was transferred nine months after the approval of the credit facility to Teng and his companies. The bank transfer, he added, also militated against the allegation of a bribe.\nAsia Capital Pioneers Group Media OutReach Singapura\nPos sebelumnya The BlocPartners Network and MIMS Announce a Strategic Partnership\nPos berikutnya An Authentic Singaporean Breakfast with Iconic Local Dishes at The Lobby Lounge Shangri-La Hotel Singapore",

        "raw_content": "As part of the MCRMC report back in 2015 that advocated what we now know as the Blended Retirement System (BRS), the commission also recommended creation of more military financial education opportunities. This was to not only help servicemembers understand the new BRS, but also to help combat the troubling challenge of financial illiteracy that often has a negative impact on servicemembers\u2019 personal lives and often spills over into professional duties. Given the lack of such financial education that most Americans including servicemembers receive, this requirement has the potential to be among the most impactful if it can help create lasting change that will stay with the servicemember their entire life!\nUp to this point, the military provides only general financial advice, recognizing that unscrupulous financial salesmen would attempt to pressure young and financially inexperienced servicemembers into inappropriate financial products. While this issue is not without precedent, reality dictates a more hands-on approach is desperately needed. The most recent Blue Star Family survey reveals the serious financial concerns that servicemembers and their families have.\nAs previously investigated in a Financial Planning article, financial stress can often tragically be a major contributing factor into servicemembers\u2019 suicides. Improving financial literacy can hopefully have a profound effect to help reduce these stressors.\nThe NDAA of 2016 lists many \u201cfinancial literacy skills\u201d upon which servicemembers are to be educated and trained at intervals during their Active and Reserve Component duty. The DoD refers to the intervals at which the education and training is to occur as \u201ctouch points.\u201d Many of these as well as new training will now also cover the elements of the BRS.\nI serve as a volunteer financial counselor and educator at my base and help to teach many similar classes already. They can be an incredible free resource to help educate you about financial topics and set you on the path to financial independence. If your location doesn\u2019t already advertise about these classes contact your respective branch\u2019s Financial Readiness Program offered through your base. There are both paid and volunteer financial counselors whose only job is to help you!\nNote that many of these mandatory training events have not yet been put into effect, but should be rolled out this year and into 2018. Most of this data has come from the BRS Financial Counselor/Educator Course Financial Literacy Touch Points Resource Paper.\nInitial Entry Training\nFor most new servicemembers, this training will take place during basic training or during OTS/ROTC/Service Academy. Many newly joined servicemembers are receiving their first pay check. The objectives of the initial training are to set the basic foundation for careful money management, prudent use of credit, and an early understanding of the concept of investments, especially the potential reward and the sources of risk. The servicemember must also learn about MyPay, the Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), and the TSP website. For many servicemembers, this training may very well be the very first time that they\u2019ve been taught about these topics. The objective is that these servicemembers can learn more about this at the start of their careers, they will be better set up for financial success the rest of their life.\nFirst Permanent Duty Station\nThe next touch point is when the servicemember arrives at their first permanent duty station. This career milestone comes as they now have a predictable routine and an environment for managing living expenses, saving (and investments), and credit while understanding the relationships between financial goal setting, budget planning, and budget execution. Servicemembers are in the optimum stage of life here in which financial literacy training can be delivered, and just as importantly, acted upon!\nThis training will focus on helping the servicemember build a statement of net worth and truly develop an appropriate budget given the cost of living at that assignment. Using those skills as a foundation, this touch point will also teach about the importance of savings, credit reporting, credit scoring systems, and understanding the mechanics of installment loans and revolving credit to include how interest is calculated on monthly payments. Also as part of the ongoing review of the BRS, this training will review the TSP including both the traditional and Roth options while covering the structure of index mutual funds, their historical rates of return, and their performance behavior across successive U.S. business cycles. In addition, servicemembers will be familiarized with the time value of money, investor time horizons, investor risk tolerance, and dollar cost averaging.\nFinally, this touch point offer the chance to educate the servicemember on some of the life planning aspects covering the financial responsibilities of renting or buying a home off base, analyzing their current insurance coverage and needs, as well as understanding the financial implications of planned life events, especially marriage, having children, or purchasing big ticket items. Since these situations often occur during or close to arrival at that first assignment location, the goal is to maximize this training when its content is most likely to be applicable in the short term.\nTSP Vesting \u2014 Occurs at Completion of Two Years of Service\nFor new accessions after 1 Jan 2018 that will be automatically enrolled in the BRS, they will vest the government\u2019s 1% TSP contribution upon completion of two year of service. The amount that is vested is all of the government\u2019s 1% TSP contribution that started after 60 days of service. For those that don\u2019t know what \u201cvesting\u201d means, this term describes how the servicemember now \u201cowns\u201d all of the government money that has been accumulating in the TSP. If the servicemember had left the military prior to the 2 year vesting, they would hold no right to walk away with that money. It would revert back to the government.\nThis key touch point marks the start of the servicemember\u2019s eligibility for government matching in the TSP so this is the major focus of this training requirement. If servicemembers enrolled in the BRS do not take advantage of the full match, they are leaving \u201cfree money\u201d on the table and missing out on a guaranteed immediate 80% return.\nExample: An O-1 contributes 5% of his pay which say for example = $152 a month and is matched by 4% [excluding the automatic 1% which happens no matter what]. That 4% match = $121 so the servicemember already made an 80% return [ 121 / 152 = 0.7961 ].\nThis training will also highlight the differing tax treatments of Traditional and Roth TSP account and cover appropriate asset allocations give the servicemembers\u2019 goals and time horizons. Another key point that will be taught at this point cover TSP portability and options upon leaving the Active or Reserve Component which include:\nLeave the funds in the TSP.\nRoll the funds over to a civilian employer\u2019s 401(k) plan.\nRoll the funds over to an individual retirement account (IRA).\nCash out the funds (thereby incurring significant tax penalties on untaxed contributions and most gains due to the contributions).\nAs servicemembers promote to the next rank, this touch point provides another opportunity to check in with the servicemember on their financial status. Once members are notified of their impending promotion, they can schedule an appointment with the base personal financial counselor to review individual or family current standard of living, as well as short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term financial goals.\nPromotions increase monthly income, and taxes, but promotions also increase the potential for the individual or family to contribute at least 5% monthly to the TSP in order to achieve the DoD 5% matching contribution if they had not previously been doing so. This opportunity allows the servicemember to determine if he and his family can continue to live at their current standard of living, the increase in monthly net income can more easily be allocated to family financial goals.\nPermanent Change of Station (PCS) Moves (E-4 and below and O-3 and below)\nAs servicemembers relocate between installations, these location changes can significantly alter income sources and monthly bills, depending on the locale-specific cost of living. Relocation can also generate unnecessary expenses if the servicemember and family do not plan carefully for the entire move. These career transition points also offer a great touch point as it is probably a few years since the last review that took place at TSP vesting or the last promotion.\nAs part of the out-processing checklist, the servicemember will contact the installation Personal Financial Manager (PFM) and Relocation staff for a consultation or class on making a smooth move. The primary purpose of this appointment is to project expenses before the move, expenses during transit, and expenses at the new duty station while also covering all of the applicable travel pay allowances authorized for the move, particularly for an overseas move\nLife happens, and these circumstances most always impact peoples\u2019 finances. The DoD plans to use significant life events (i.e., marriage, divorce, birth of child, disabling sickness or condition, etc.) experienced by servicemembers may have implications or impact on short- and long-term personal financial goals, budgets, and reevaluate life insurance, car insurance, and as necessary, health and long-term care insurance needs.\nWhen a servicemember makes the appropriate changes in DEERs, he will be prompted to schedule an appointment with the base personal financial counselor. This appointment will cover the impact on monthly and annual budgets as well as the impact affecting taxes in multiple ways, generally increasing or decreasing exemptions, deductions, or credits even creating a change in filing status. For servicemembers that experience a divorce, this appointment will cover all of the legal aspects concepts by which joint property and liabilities are split between each party and the ongoing financial impacts of the divorce settlement. The last major topic addressed is the importance of updating beneficiary designations and bequests on all depository accounts, deeds, titles, wills, and trusts through a follow-up appointment scheduled at the base legal office.\nPre-/Post-Deployment\nAs servicemembers deploy throughout their careers, this touch point provides the opportunity to leverage the financial benefits, but also offers financial challenges for families remaining behind. Deployment presents financial opportunities and challenges for them as they prepare to be away from home station, possibly in a combat zone, for an extended period of time, and upon returning home as some benefits end.\nDuring the pre-deployment training, the focus will be on understanding allowances and special pays which will be received during the deployment and knowing which pays are taxable and which are \u201ctax-free.\u201d The servicemember will be encouraged to set goals for the expected increase in savings over the deployment including options as the Savings Deposit Program (SDP) or contributing \u201ctax-free\u201d contributions to the TSP, and discuss how the gains will be used at the end of the deployment. Lastly, servicemembers will have to project major expenses that will be incurred by the family over the length of the deployment and plan for managing the expenses and ensure their families have appropriate access to all the financial resources they will need.\nFollowing the deployment, the servicemember will receive training that helps review family financial goals, analyze the new monthly and annual budgets and the current balance sheet to add/delete expenses and assets, as appropriate. The servicemember is challenged to review the pre-deployment financial goals and follow through as appropriate. Finally, the training will ensure each servicemember knows how to close an SDP account and transfer saved funds to other savings/investment/credit accounts for which the savings were initiated.\nEntitlement to Continuation Pay \u2014 Occurs at Completion of 12 Years of Service\nThe National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2016 also included a continuation pay provision as a way to encourage Service members to continue serving in the Uniformed Services. Under BRS, Continuation Pay is offered to members at the completion of 12 years of service provided members sign up to complete an addition four-year commitment.\nThis touch point offers the final chance to help the servicemember understand that a decision to forego or choose Continuation Pay should be made only after a concerted effort to project retirement income that might result from following a civilian career path. For servicemembers that select Continuation Pay, the full tax implications of receiving the payment in one payment as opposed to 2 or 3 equal annual payments are covered as well as outlining the options for allocating continuation pay: spending, saving, investing, paying down debt, or charity.\nTransition Out of the Military\nThe NDAA envisions three significant transition events relative to the BRS. Chronologically, the first is at separation when the servicemember faces a decision on the portability of the TSP. The second is when the servicemember transitions from the Active Component to the Reserve Component and needs to become familiar with RC provisions of the BRS. The third is when the servicemember retires and has the option of electing to take a lump sum payment of future retirement assets.\nTransition ~ Separation\nWhen a servicemember separates, this training will rehearse the four options for a TSP account at separation (Keep, Rollover to new 401(k), Rollover to IRA, Cash out) and the benefits and costs of each. The servicemember will also be reminded of the option of being able to roll a future 401(k) account back into a pre-existing TSP account. (Note: Eligible to do so only when leaving the company that sponsors the 401(k) plan.) Finally, this touch point will cover the tax penalties of having an unpaid balance on a TSP loan when separating from active Federal service.\nTransition ~ Active Duty to Reserve/National Guard\nHere the servicemember will be trained to understand the regulations and procedures by which Reserve Component (RC) Service members are credited with \u201cgood years\u201d for retirement eligibility and with retirement points for actual retired annuity calculations while also now covering the difference with how Continuation Pay is calculated for RC Service members.\nTransition ~ Retirement from Active Duty ~ Eligible for Lump Sum Payment\nWhen a servicemember retires, they will be required to leverage the budgeting skills learned during the Transition Readiness Seminar, and project a 12-month budget using the revised monthly annuities from the 50% and 25% lump sum payments in order to project cash flow requirements after committing to the lump sum payment(s). The training will cover the differing ways the servicemember could use the lump sum payment and determine how the payment(s) will be applied. If all or part of the money will be invested, the counselor will demonstrate the effect the investment will have on the family long-range retirement plan. The servicemember will also have to calculate the additional amount of money to be invested each month in order to retire at the Standard of Living (SOL) projected in the most recent family long-range financial plan. Finally, the training will cover the tax implications of receiving payment in one total disbursement of the lump sum or in 2 or more equal annual disbursements.\nAs you can see, the DoD has some major changes ahead with all of these new and upcoming financial training requirements. While some of them may be converted into computer based training (CBT), many of them require the face-to-face counseling to fully model and understand some of the major implications for servicemembers and their families.\nLet me know what you think. Is all this financial literacy training a good idea and do you think it could benefit for the military?\nBlended Retirement System BRS Military Financial Education Military Financial Literacy\nJohn@MilitaryFIRE\nIndeed, Financial Literacy training is a critical component. I wonder, and perhaps as a volunteer FP, what training or certification the trainer\u2019s will have to undergo. I know as my unit\u2019s checkin/checkout financial training officer I gave a lot of info out on people\u2019s TSP option, and not all of it was right.\nAdditionally, I\u2019m concerned about the voluntary nature of some of these trainings at certain touch points. I think its great that people will have to create a budget and balance sheet product though. That\u2019s a big improvement over anything we have currently.\nThanks for your comments and questions. I too am a volunteer financial counselor at my base and have found some of the programs to be inconsistent both here and at other bases in my career. Based on the training that I have received as well as conversations I have had with OSD implementing this plan, I expect to see additional \u201ctrain-the-trainer\u201d requirements come down. I am also speculating that more financial counselors will have to be hired as most of these training events have to be conducted face-to-face and I don\u2019t see sufficient manning in most bases at this time to handle that load. I had previously asked some of these questions of the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Force Education & Training) and I got these answers back.\n\u201cMany of the Services have implemented new face to face training, enhanced current curriculum or incorporated one or multiple of the touchpoints into annual training requirements. The direction in how these touchpoints are delivered is decided upon the Service in order to meet their mission requirements. To augment their efforts, our office is in the process of creating micro learning tools that the Personal Financial Managers can use to supplement current practices. This includes the development of a financial app, and other electronic or print materials on targeted touchpoint areas. Tracking of mandatory training is determined by each service. Some may choose to use a web based system and another may use their Learning Management System, depending on how the material is presented. It is mandatory as outlined in the NDAA 2016, and at this time waivers have not been a topic of discussion.\u201d",

However, they are going to have their work cut out to claw their way back to the top of the points table, with just three rounds of the South African National Rally Championship remaining.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t pretty and we had a rally full of niggles of various kinds but we\u2019ll take the podium,\u201d said Leeke, after a ding-dong event that tested the patience of he and his co-driver. \u201cWe barely had a stage where we didn\u2019t have to contend with some kind of issue! We had low fuel pressure on the opening stage but we managed to get ourselves back into the runner-up spot at the end of the first day, though Guy Botterill and Simon Vacy-Lyle were looking hard to catch!\u201d\nDay two started badly with separate issues in SS6 and SS7, the braking problem on the latter costing them over a minute and dropping them to third behind AC Potgieter and Nico Swartz.\n\u201cAfter that it was a case of damage control and Richard and I decided that a safe third was what we would aim for, rather than risk it all trying to get back into second place with so few stage kilometres left,\u201d explained K\u00f6hne, who is still tender after breaking his collarbone in a motorcycling accident little more than a month ago.\nThe rally championship moves back to Gauteng for the fifth round in the middle of August, and the Young Guns are looking forward to being back on their home turf and hopefully with the benefit of a fresh engine which they had hoped to have for the Algoa but wasn\u2019t completed in time.\n\u201cThere are still 48 points up for grabs this season and we are only 17 off the leader and it certainly isn\u2019t all doom and gloom\u2026so we\u2019re maintaining a positive outlook and aim to be at our best next month!\u201d concluded K\u00f6hne.\nPublished by: Roadworx Communications\nPicture Caption: Maximum Attack from the Young Guns in the Speedglas fiesta!",

        "title": "When Is It Okay For A Screenwriter To Work For Free?",
        "raw_content": "By Mark Sanderson\nWell, it\u2019s certainly okay to work for free when you are working on your own specs, but do your best to avoid any free work for a producer or production company. Some will dangle a carrot at every step and try to entice you to work for no pay. They\u2019ll offer you a possible option or grandiose promises of actors they can attach or a distant production date. Forget it. If they are truly serious, they will offer a contract and pay you for your writing services. It\u2019s the only way a professional works. Hollywood\u2019s feeder fish live at the bottom of the food chain and look to prey on hungry screenwriters who are eager to work for anyone who shows interest in their work. Avoid these scumbags at all costs. Don\u2019t be afraid to walk away.\nMy actor friends constantly spec when they prepare for auditions. Many times a great deal of work goes into preparing for the part and the five minutes they\u2019ll get in front of the casting director. This might also include some research and rehearsal. Sometimes they\u2019re asked to submit the audition by video and spend hours filming it and getting it just right. The entire process is unpaid, but the necessary spec work an actor must do to nail an audition and get the part. If they get the part, that\u2019s when the free spec work ends.\nScreenwriters go through the same process when we spec out our ideas. The key is to know just how much work you are willing to do for free on any given idea, especially if it isn\u2019t yours. I recently had a great meeting with a known TV actress who was looking for a writer to develop ideas with her for a show. There were no specifics, but once we met and bounced ideas around, I had a better understanding of what she was looking to develop and I also was able to get a read on her personality. I came up with an idea that I thought would be perfect for her and I wrote it up in a two page synopsis. I was doing this on spec and not getting paid, but took into account of who she is in the business and the doors she could open if she liked my idea. It was a total of about ten hours of my time including our lunch meeting.\nShe loved my idea and presented my synopsis to her manager and her potential co-star and they both loved it too. Surprisingly, I was able to leap over three major hurdles with the trio\u2014any one of them could have disliked my idea and it would have died on the vine. Now the stakes became raised as my idea moved into new territory by their combined interest. I reevaluated this new scenario and had to consider just how much more work I was willing to do for free. Luckily, the synopsis was enough. I was not asked to do any more spec work as they are professionals who play at a certain level of the business. They also know I am a professional who gets paid to write. As a nice extra, I was able to generate some new heat on myself as I was now \u201cdeveloping\u201d an original idea with a known actress.\nEventually the idea did not go into development as the actress had a prior commitment with a company where she has a deal. She did ask me if I would be willing to revisit my idea sometime in the future and I agreed. As a result of this opportunity, I made a fantastic connection with her and showcased my ability to tailor an idea to a specific actor\u2014all for just ten hours of my time. I genuinely feel the spec work I did was worth my time and it may payoff sometime in the future.\nAlways consider the players involved if asked to spec an idea for a producer, actor, director or executive. If they ask you to write a detailed treatment, a full episode, or screenplay\u2014politely refuse and remind them that you don\u2019t work for free. If you easily rollover and start working for free, they will lose respect for you and like a blackmailer\u2014it never ends. Each time you work for free, you end up paying them with your most precious commodity\u2014time. Professional writers get paid when they write. If someone shows interest in your project, they should pay you something to move forward. It\u2019s the test of a true professional.\nEarly in my career, I dealt with a producer who loved my screenplay and I thought his interest meant that he was serious. Then came the notes and his expectation of free work. He began to string me along and told me, \u201cif you do another draft with our notes, we just might option your script.\u201d I told him that I don\u2019t work for free and quickly found out that his interest was just interest. It\u2019s the cheapest commodity around Hollywood having someone being \u201cinterested\u201d in your screenplay. The real test is when they buy your script or pay you to write\u2014that\u2019s real interest. If you are going to spec an idea and work for free, consider the players and how much of your time you will spend. If you agree to move forward with the work, spend enough time to make it great, but not too much time so you feel used. Remember, never be afraid to say \u201cno.\u201d They\u2019ll respect you more when you act as a professional screenwriter by not working for free.\n\u201cWriting is the only profession where no one considers you ridiculous if you earn no money\u201d\u2014Jules Renard\n\u201cGod sells us all things at the price of the labor\u201d\u2014Leonardo da Vinci\n\u201c\u2026 The payoff of playing-the-game-for-money is not the money (which you may never see anyway, even after you turn pro). The payoff is that playing the game for money produces the proper professional attitude. It inculcates the lunch-pail mentality, the hard-core, hard-head, hard-hat state of mind that shows up for work despite rain or snow or dark of night and slugs it out day after day.\u201d\u2014Steven Pressfield, \u201cThe War of Art\u201d\nAbout Mark Sanderson\nMark is a veteran of the screenwriting game with over fifteen years of experience and blessed to be living his childhood dream of being a filmmaker.

The tour recently kicked off in the UK with Mark\u2019s impressive bass rig bolstered by a TC Electronic RH450 bass amp as well as two RS410 cabinets \u2013 the ideal combination to fire up his razor-sharp, thumbing lines.\nLevel 42 formed back in 1980 and quickly hit the top of the charts with melodic, rhythmically advanced pop hits, such as Running In The Family and Lessons In Love, that were characterized by Mark King\u2019s very percussive slap bass lines. Mark King brought this unique bass playing style to the masses and has been a huge inspiration to the next generation of slapping masters. Today he is widely regarded as one of the \u2018thumb\u2019 masters along with luminaries such as Larry Graham, Bootsy Collins, Stanley Clarke and Marcus Miller.\nKing says of his Bass Amp 2.0 set-up: \u201cHaving been a long-time user and fan of TC Electronic effects both on the road and in the studio, it is a real pleasure to be using the RH450 bass amp and RS cabs. The high fidelity I'd come to expect from TC Electronic is right there in the sound from the punchy bass to the snappy highs, and the programmability is spot on. Nice one TC!\u201d\nThe Level 42 30th Anniversary tour kicks off this month with dates across the UK and Germany with more planned around the world for later in the year.\nMore about TC Electronic TC Electronic was founded in 1976 with the objective of developing, manufacturing and marketing first class audio products that provide lasting user value for audio professionals.

Maribeth came up with the name, and we all thought it was fantastic.\"\nLarry Smith, of Tag Sports Graphics, designed the logo.\nA press conference introducing the Fighting Falcons will be held on Wednesday, July 14 at McMorran Place, the team\u2019s home facility. Those expected to attend include: NAHL commissioner Mark Frankenfeld; Port Huron Mayor Pauline Repp; city council members; McMorran Authority Board members; Paul Costanzo and Rick Jackaki, sports reporters from the Times Herald; local high school hockey coaches; and fans.\nHicke also credits Randy Fernandez, general manager of McMorran Place, for his efforts in bringing the NAHL to Port Huron.\n\u201cHe was tremendous in helping us finalize our plans to make this team a reality,\u201d said Hicke.\nFor more information on the Fighting Falcons, visit PortHuronNAHL.com.",

        "raw_content": "Number 19, December 1, 1996\nEditor, The Libertarian Enterprise:\nHow do you tell when a politician is lying?\nHis lips move.\nHow do you know when a politician is trying hard, really hard, to postpone more violations of his oath of office?\nWhen he's waiting for an election to be over.\nDuring the initial U.S. military occupation of Bosnia, Clinton swore he would pull out in 12 months, WHETHER HIS OBJECTIVES HAD BEEN ACHIEVED OR NOT. He said, that because of this, we should quit whining, shut up, and pay, while he played army in his global military sandbox. (That withdrawal-- like withdrawal for birth control-- is more likely to be promised than achieved).\nNow he says he must extend the occupation because his objectives haven't been met, and he has the nerve to specifically promise only 18 additional months, it being appallingly obvious that he lied about the 12-month deadline.\nI have an idea! Let's make a constitutional amendment saying the president can't send troops to war without the approval of Congress. Oops, I forgot... that's already in the Constitution. What the hell, let's make an amendment anyway!\nPete Stephenson\nphstephenson@anet.rockwell.com\nThe opinions herein are not necessarily those of\nRockwell International... though the world might\nbe a better place if they were.\nEditor, TLE\nI've heard all the complaints about Harry Browne. I can hardly complain myself about how he became the candidate since I have long since withdrawn from party politics. Politics offends me, even in voluntary organizations. I encountered the problem when I ran for congress in 1984 and was advised by my campaign manager that certain suggestions I had made about privatizing police may go against some past agreement between minarchists and anarchists in the party to (apparently) present the LP with a minarchist face. Since the party is formally a creature of the state (in order to qualify as a certified party) there can only be dilemmas awaiting profound anarchists seeking to eliminate the institution of state through electoral politics. As an anarchist, I can only prefer to have Harry Browne to pick on rather than Bill or Bob. Wouldn't that be nice?\nPart of the reason I decided to refrain from voting is to have greater integrity with my position that I am not a U.S. Federal citizen (and thus not subject to the federal income tax). Another factor in my choice has to do with that old line, \"If you don't vote, you have no reason to complain.\" I look at it this way: If you do vote, you shouldn't complain about the results, because by voting, you have validated the system and agreed to go along with the outcome. Maybe the only people who have reason to complain about the results of elections are those whose candidate won -- only to find that their support was obtained through fraud. If they only knew.\nkgsam@samsnewworld.org\nwww.samsnewworld.org\nNext to advance to the next article, or Previous to return to the previous article, or Index to return to The Libertarian Enterprise, Number 19, December 1, 1996.",

Quoting from The Early American Press, 1690-1783\u2014a book Williams authored with William David Sloan\u2014the article discusses the American press in its infancy and the early beliefs held that the press was expected to be explicitly partisan.\nJulie Williams is no stranger to journalism or the history of the American press. She began her career in journalism as a staff member of the Sampson Independent in Clinton, North Carolina, where she worked for seven years before returning to school to receive her M.A. in Journalism and Ph.D in Mass Communications from the University of Alabama. Williams is currently a professor of journalism at Samford University, a position she\u2019s held since 1994. She\u2019s also authored several books, including the aforementioned title as well as The Significance of the Printed Word in Early America: Colonists\u2019 Thoughts on the Role of the Press and the forthcoming NewSouth title Wings of Opportunity.\nAvailable in January 2010, Wings of Opportunity chronicles Orville and Wilbur Wright\u2019s founding in 1910 of the first civilian flight school in the United States. This flight school, based in Montgomery, Alabama, was heralded by forward-thinking Montgomerians as a way to rise above the shadow of the Civil War, and Williams relates the short life of this flight school mainly through the eyes of the Alabama press, whose reporting and sometimes misreporting \u201creflected the misconceptions, hopes, dreams, and fears about aviation in 1910, painting a picture of a time when flight was untested, unsteady, and unavailable to most people.\u201d\nWings of Opportunity will be available in January 2010 from NewSouth Books, Amazon.com, or your favorite local or online retailer.\nPosted in Wings of Opportunity | 3 Comments \u00bb",

Person in The Washington Times extolls the \u201cgood people\u201d who are the subject of A Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers: From the Great Depression to the Great Society by Henrietta Hill. The memoir by the wife of the late Alabama senator Lister Hill, who served in Congress from 1938 until 1969, was discovered and edited by the Hills\u2019 daughter Henrietta Hubbard. Comprised of a diary and a stash of letters, the book recounts episodes and events from an era in which the rounds of Washington, D.C. political life were marked by a genteel atmosphere.\n\u201c\u2026this is largely a memoir of a more civil time than our own. Many of the episodes and anecdotes Mrs. Hill records concern social get-togethers in Washington and who was wearing what, with passing references to the events of the day. Distinguished personages cross the stage of the author\u2019s memory, sometimes in passing glances, sometimes in telling detail.\nF. Scott Fitzgerald, Gen. John J. Pershing and numerous others put in brief appearances and then vanish. Long stretches of Mrs. Hill\u2019s narrative have a dashed-off, letter-to-my-mother feel about them. (In fact, many of the sections of this work were originally letters from Mrs. Hill to her mother.) They are newsy but somewhat dry to the eyes of us outsiders.\nHowever, there are several instances in this work in which the author records short, often funny stories of things that happened during the course of a given day that provide a window into an era when everything seemed possible, even when the nation\u2019s social and economic circumstances were uncertain. These passages add much to the value of A Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers as a snapshot in time as well as a view into the lives of good people.\u201d\nPerson points out that the book details the \u201clong cultural transition\u201d that took place between the landmark events of the title: the Great Depression and the Great Society.\nThe vast cultural changes that occurred during the mid-twentieth century form the background to the society events and minutiae of daily life expounded upon by Mrs. Hill in her diaries and letters. As the Times appreciates, the details serve to inform knowledge of the whole.\nA Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers: From the Great Depression to the Great Society is available from NewSouth Books, Amazon.com, or your favorite retail or online bookseller.\nPosted in Senator's Wife Remembers | No Comments \u00bb\nSenator Lister Hill subject of memoir published 50 years later\nTuesday, November 9th, 2010 by Lisa Harrison\nRecent articles in The Gadsden Times and The Montgomery Advertiser praised the new memoir A Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers: From the Great Depression to the Great Society, noting its importance for Alabama political history. The book has an unusual gestation, being a memoir composed of a manuscripts and letters written by the wife of the late Senator Lister Hill and compiled and edited by her daughter, who discovered the materials in a box in the attic of the Hills\u2019 Eufaula home.\nDana Beyerle, in The Gadsden Times, points out that \u201cLister Hill was a significant force in national and Alabama politics during the Roaring Twenties, Depression World War II and the post-war era.\u201d Hill co-sponsored the Hill-Burton Act, or correctly the Hospital Center Construction Act of 1946, that provided grants to improve public health. He sponsored the TVA Act and the National Defense Education Act, or the G.I. Bill, among other legislation. He served as Senate Majority Whip from 1941-47.\nAbout the journey to publication, daughter Henrietta Hubbard says, \u201cI started last fall going over making corrections, ensuring things were right,\u201d she said. \u201cI did [it] in loving memory. My grandmother was named Henrietta, my mother was named Henrietta and I was named Henrietta. It took three Henriettas to put this together.\u201d\nThe Montgomery Advertiser covered a celebratory party given by Henrietta Hubbard\u2019s son Lister at his Garden District home in honor of his mother\u2019s work seeing the publication of the book to its fruition. According to the Advertiser, more than 40 guests enjoyed the event and booksigning.\nJohn Andrews, a nephew of Henrietta Hubbard, will speak about the book and his family\u2019s connection to Eufuala, Henrietta Hill\u2019s hometown, at the Eufaula Carnegie Library on November 9 at 6:30 pm.\nA Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers provides valuable information about the family life of a man whose political legacy is assured. The memoir provides insight into his many achievements.\nA Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers is available from NewSouth Books, Amazon.com, or your favorite retail or online book seller.\nYou are currently browsing the archives for the Senator\u2019s Wife Remembers category.",

        "raw_content": "Archive for the 'wrightbrothers' Category\nWright brothers scholar Julie Williams responds to Connecticut \u201cfirst in flight\u201d controversy\nSamford University journalism professor Julie Hedgepeth Williams is the author of Wings of Opportunity: The Wright Brothers in Montgomery, Alabama, 1910, examining the short life of the Wright brothers\u2019 Alabama flight school through the records of average Montgomerians and the Alabama press. She submitted this column about the recent \u201cfirst in flight\u201d controversy in Connecticut:\nThe state of Connecticut has just declared local hero Gustave Whitehead to be the inventor of the airplane, claiming Whitehead flew in 1901, before the Wright Brothers first flew in 1903.\nClaims like this occasionally crop up, because many people were trying to invent the airplane around the time of the Wright Brothers. Wilbur Wright himself, inspired by their efforts, resolved to make his mark on the world by inventing the airplane. The key element is that he and his brother Orville actually did it, while others did not.\nPowered flight could not be achieved until a bunch of things came together. One crucial ingredient was full control of the airplane. Other experimenters understood they needed to control the up-and-down motion of aircraft and the right-and-left motion. However, others did not understand that they needed to master of the roll of the aircraft. An airplane needs to bank \u2013 tilt it on its wing \u2013 in order to maneuver successfully. The Wright Brothers figured that out. To the bicycle-building Wrights, it was natural to lean into a turn, just as bicyclists did.\nIf Whitehead mastered that key aspect of control, he surely kept it secret. In contrast, once the Wrights mastered this aspect, all the other would-be flyers started copying them.\nThe state of Connecticut also suggested that the Wright Brothers had a conspiracy with the Smithsonian to declare them the first to fly. That\u2019s a joke. In reality, the Smithsonian\u2019s director in the Wright Brothers era, Samuel Langley, was also trying to invent the airplane. His version plummeted dramatically into the Potomac a few days before the Wrights\u2019 first successful flight at Kitty Hawk. Despite this, the Smithsonian declared that Langley had invented the airplane. The claim was preposterous, so Orville Wright refused to allow the actual first airplane to be exhibited in the Smithsonian until the institution admitted that the Wrights had, indeed, flown first.\nMuch has been written on Whitehead\u2019s supposed flights and witnesses who saw him fly. As mentioned above, such claims are frequent. Many in Alabama believe that Dr. Lewis Archer Boswell, whose plantation is now the location of the Talladega Superspeedway, flew in 1894. He also had lots of supposed witnesses. And yet, his aircraft remains a mystery. Perhaps he built a model. Perhaps he built a glider. Either would look quite dramatic to people who had never seen an airplane, and stories of such a craft could quite easily be magnified to match the Wright Flyer when the Wright Brothers were successful.\nThe Wright Brothers spent part of 1910 in Montgomery, Alabama, where they established the nation\u2019s first civilian flying school and where their students flew the first night flights in the world. And yet, shortly before the Wright Brothers arrived in Alabama, a Birmingham resident claimed to have built an airplane and to have flown it many times at night, with multiple witnesses. The man even promised he was going to start an airline passenger service between Alabama and Washington, DC. Of course he didn\u2019t do so, because his story was made up. And yet, a reader of the newspaper account might have believed it and repeated it as truth later.\nThere\u2019s no telling what people in Connecticut actually saw \u2013 a glider or a toy model, perhaps. But if they did indeed see a successful airplane invented by Whitehead, it would seem that Whitehead had very little understanding of getting the word out or of explaining to others how it could be done. It seems a strong possibility that he didn\u2019t do so simply because he hadn\u2019t really mastered flight at all.\nJulie Williams\u2019s Wings of Opportunity: The Wright Brothers in Montgomery, Alabama, 1910 is available from NewSouth Books, Amazon, or your favorite bookstore. Williams\u2019s most recent book is A Rare Titanic Family: The Caldwells\u2019 Story of Survival, about her relatives who survived the sinking of the Titanic.\nPosted in wrightbrothers | No Comments \u00bb\nYou are currently browsing the archives for the wrightbrothers category.",

        "raw_content": "Youth Advocacy Day On The Hill\nThis summer, as they do each year, interns descended upon D.C., to observe first hand how the federal government operates and learn about public policy issues for which they feel passionately. In an effort to build knowledge about reproductive rights, sexual health and HIV/AIDS, as well as foster future leadership in these movements, the National Minority AIDS Council (NMAC) joined forces with Advocates for Youth, Center for Health and Gender Equity (CHANGE) and Unite for Reproductive and Gender Equity (URGE) to facilitate a summer lunch series where interns learned about the principles, policy and politics behind current issues in sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice.The summer kicked off with a networking reception where interns from allied social justice organizations had the chance to get to know one another, share their knowledge, and seek advice from program coordinators.\nThe summer series included sessions on turning out the vote and \u201cQueering RJ\u201d; where students learned about the critical role the LGBT and Reproductive Justice Movements have in pushing forward sexual liberation and equity. Students also gained a better understanding of public health harm reduction policies during a session entitled, \u201cSex, Drugs, Politics & Harm Reduction in the Capital City.\u201d Sydney Butler, a junior at Harvard University and intern at the Forum for Collaborative HIV Research, found this session particularly exciting because \u201cit directly addressed the specific issues faced by people living with HIV and people at risk for transmission living in Washington, D.C.\u201dAfter a summer of learning about issues essential to improving the sexual health of communities both domestically and abroad, interns took to the nation\u2019s Capitol on Wednesday July 30th to let their voices be heard by their members of Congress; specifically advocating for passage of bills that support comprehensive sex education in the U.S. and strengthening US global sexual and reproductive health programs.\nStudents, like Nicole Chenelle, a junior at Georgetown University, were able to meet with their elected officials and described it as a learning experience, noting, \u201cI feel much more confident in my ability to speak with my representatives on issues that I care about.\u201d\nLeft: Nicole Chenelle, junior at Georgetown University & intern at Reproductive Health Technologies Project Center: Representative Tierney (D-MA) Right: Matilda Matovu, intern at AAPCO\nAnother group of interns met with a representative from their home town in Northern California. Shortly after their meeting, the member signed on to HR 725 the \u201cReal Education for Healthy Youth Act\u201d (REHYA). Mena Tajrishi, a member of the UC Berkeley\u2019s Class of 2015 and intern at URGE, commented that, \u201cHearing that Representative Mike Thompson endorsed REYHA after we met with his staff was rewarding and serves as an example that talking to our representatives is not pointless but necessary.\u201d Amy Wieczorek, a graduate student at the University of Texas School of Public Health and intern at the National Women\u2019s Health Network, also visited Rep. Thompson\u2019s office with Mena and said that, \u201cUntil today, I didn\u2019t believe that my voice would be listened to and be able to make an impact! I am definitely going to start talking to members of Congress more often!\u201d\nSex and Politics in the Capital city was an eye opening experience for the interns. They maneuvered a day on \u201cthe hill,\u201d had real conversations with members of congress, and experienced DC humidity in work attire! Whew, what a day! Read an intern\u2019s personal story about her experience at Sex and Politics in the Capital City Advocacy Day 2014, here.

        "raw_content": "Boating Jun 4, 2018 - 2:10:03 AM\nMalloy, state and local leaders announce significant improvements to a New London marina that will help boost tourism in region\nNEW LONDON, CT - Governor Dannel P. Malloy, along with Senator Richard Blumenthal, Congressman Joe Courtney, New London Mayor Michael Passero and Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) Commissioner Robert Klee last week celebrated completion of a project that provides transient dockage for larger recreational vessels at Thamesport Marina in New London. The project, which used a $1.4 million grant from the Federal Boating Infrastructure Grant Program, is intended to encourage people to enjoy boating on the state\u2019s waterways while stimulating tourism and economic development.\n\u201cFacilities for larger boats are critical for tourism and economic growth in Connecticut, and we hope that in-state and out-of-state boaters alike take the opportunity to visit New London and enjoy the boating destinations we have around the Thames River in New London and Groton, as well as all along our other shoreline communities,\u201d Governor Malloy said. \u201cThis project highlights what is possible when state and federal partners come together for the economic good of our local communities.\u201d\n\u201cThis major federal grant will allow larger boats to navigate the Thames, bringing new, important opportunities for tourism and investment,\u201d Senator Blumenthal said. \u201cRecreational boating is more than fun \u2013 it\u2019s an economic anchor of our maritime economy. I look forward to welcoming these new boats and visitors to the Thamesport Marina, and will continue to do all I can to support Connecticut\u2019s thriving maritime businesses.\u201d\n\u201cThis federal investment in New London is going to go a long way to helping revitalize the port and spur additional tourism in the area,\u201d Congressman Joe Courtney said. \u201cIt will provide another amenity for visitors to come and enjoy along with other sights along the Thames River including the Submarine Force Library and Museum.\u201d\nThe project was managed by DEEP.\n\u201cWe have long been successful at providing boat launch access for smaller recreational boats, and now with the support of the Federal Boating Infrastructure Grant Program, we are able to provide the same high-quality access for larger recreational vessels,\u201d Commissioner Klee said. \u201cDEEP is proud to work with our federal partners and local businesses to help create new economic opportunities for the region.\u201d\nThe new transient docking facility features a large 12-foot wide concrete floating dock with an integrated wave attenuator, making it a very stable platform for large transient recreational vessels to visit and enjoy the mouth of the Thames River for up to 15 days and nights per stay. Due to the stability that is afforded by these new floating docks and finger piers, the facility can host up to 54 recreational vessels at a time and has the capacity to host very large vessels, exceeding 100 feet or more in length. The marina also offers gas and diesel, on-site pumpout facilities, an indoor/outdoor restaurant with water views, restrooms, showers and laundry. There are also three other restaurants located within walking distance of the docks.\nSince 2000, Connecticut has received and successfully administered 13 grants for the construction of transient boating facilities, including slips, moorings, upland facilities and amenities sought by transient boaters. Information on other facilities in Connecticut receiving grants under the federal program can be found on DEEP\u2019s interactive Boating Infrastructure Map at www.ct.gov/deep/transientboaterfacilities.",

Such reflection can serve as a foundation for developing personal capacities for making better choices for students and all the persons who have stakes in schools and school operations.

        "raw_content": "The Cradle To College-The Orlando Times\nCommunity Women Prepare Children To Go From \u201cThe Cradle To College\u201d\nORANGE COUNTY - Over 4,000 registered and licensed Family Child Care Homes are located in the state of Florida. Over 40,000 of young, impressionable children are being cared for and educated in regulated family child care homes.\nThese care homes are run under The Florida Family Child Care Home Association (FFCCHA). Created 25 years ago with the 4 main goals of promoting the development of high quality educational programs, supporting the education concerning quality home child care, participating with policy-making to provide high quality child care for all children, and fostering the development of local association chapters.\nIn 1994 they were granted IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, and in 1996 they were able to offer group exemption to local associations. This encouraged the growth of Chapters with 100 % membership in FFCCHA.\nUnder the umbrella of the FFCCHA, the Multicultural Family Child Care Home Association of Orange County \u201cunites family child care providers, one home at a time\u201d. With Chapter President Rendy Bethel-Avila at the helm, it began servicing the Orlando area nearly 5 years ago. Since then trained women from the parramore, tangelo, and other nearby communities have opened their homes to children.\n\u201cWe do everything like a normal center,\u201d said Bethel-Avila. \u201cWe just have less children because we are in a home. So we can have 5 toddlers and 5 after-school children. In the morning most of us just have 6 children.\u201d\nAll Mentors accepted into the program must currently operate a licensed family child care home and be a chapter member of FFCCHA. Inc. Additionally, one must have been licensed for at least 3 years, have a CDA or NAFCC Accreditation and have 30 hours in service training within the last 2 years. An application is required.\nThere are three categories in this program: Mentors, Mentor Instructors and Mentor Instructor Trainers. In addition to these three categories, there are three levels of Mentors available, each level having higher qualifications and training requirements. Mentors are required to meet specific criteria, including 16 hours of initial mentor training and 16 hours of additional training annually. All are required to re-certify each year, which include specific on-going training requirements and updates on their child care license and credentials. Instructors are required to meet the same requirements as Mentors, but receive an additional eight hours of instructor training as well as on-going training for each mentor curriculum approved by the program\u2019s Advisory Board. Prospective Mentors and Instructors are solicited through local chapters of FFCCHA, Inc.\nFamily Child Care is a home-based service where child care is provided in the caregiver\u2019s home. The home must be licensed or registered according to county and state laws.\n\u201cThe purpose and mission of what we do is to give the child and the parents a foundation, to get them ready for school,\u201d she added. \u201cMost of the kids we watch are infants thorough 5 years old. We introduce new concepts to them because during these years they learn so much.\u201d\nParents must submit a membership application. Dues include quarterly issues of The Grapevine which features a Parent\u2019s Page. The cost is $10.00 year for each parent. Parent members can also join and support the National Association for Family Child Care for $40/year.\nTo assist the instructors on staying up-to-date on teaching and caring techniques, the chapter members meet every 2nd Saturday of the month at the Orlando Downtown Recreation Center. Additionally, there are quarterly meetings held in Ocala, they network with surrounding association members, and they offer 2 hour quarterly workshops that teach skills relating to child care and education to their members.\n\u201cWe just had one [a workshop] about lesson planning. Right now we are in the fall so we are focusing on how to use the pumpkin. We talk about the amount of seeds it has, what vitamins we get from it, and we let them explore the texture and taste. At the end we will let them carry home a pumpkin with candy in it,\u201d said Bethel- Avila.\nIn addition to the lesson planning workshop, last month they held a workshop regarding the use of music in early childhood education. Both workshops were facilitated by veteran music and kindergarten teacher, Gloria Green.\n\u201cI really wanted the women who attended the workshop(s) to gain knowledge in making their lesson plans. Things like using music to teach the kids,\u201d said Green. \u201cKids can learn anything through music and they learn faster through music too because they really connect with it.\u201d\nIn addition to their workshops and meetings they hold fundraisers: a walk with Commissioner Samuel B. Ings in December, an annual tea party in March, and the upcoming Walkathon. This local chapter is ran by six officers. As previously mentioned Rendy Bethel-Avila serves as the President. She was a member of the Rosen Program, caring for children 2-5 years old for nearly 17 years, she has attended Valencia College, she earned her associates degree in Early Child Care Education at Penn Foster, she also received an associate\u2019s degree from JCOG Theology Seminary College, and she attends quarterly board meetings with the Early Learning Coalition (ELC) and the Department of Children and Families (DCF).\nThe other members of the executive board include Treasurer and Representative Kissha Ballard, Fundraiser Kathy Harp, Secretary Stephanie Minus, Membership Chairperson Sharon Dennis, and Hospitality Heads LaCretia Pickette and Lelia McClough.\nOn the state level, each year the FFCCHA holds a conference, usually during the month of June in Clearwater, FL. The 2018 Conference will include workshops, Pre-Conference Training: Mentor Essentials and Certification, and more.\nTo connect with the Multicultural FFCHA of Orange County visit www.familychildcare.org",

        "raw_content": "Drugs, Death, And Star-Studded Re-enactments Set Errol Morris Docuseries 'Wormwood' Apart\nErrol Morris is documentary royalty. The true-crime docs we can\u2019t get enough of these days all owe an enormous debt to his pioneering 1988 film A Thin Blue Line, which led to the release of a wrongfully convicted man who had been sentenced to death for a murder he didn\u2019t commit. His 2003 film The Fog of War, about the former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, earned Morris his first Oscar for Best Documentary. And now he\u2019s bringing a new 6-part docuseries to Netflix \u2014 one that promises an enticing mix of drugs, government experiments, mind control, secrecy, death, and a few familiar faces. Here\u2019s the teaser trailer:\nWormwood looks at the case of Frank Rudolph Olson, a CIA agent who fell to his death in 1953 from a hotel room in New York City after secretly being given LSD. Was his death suicide, or was it murder? A family tragedy and the hunt for the truth mixes with a larger tale of the U.S. government\u2019s shadowy dealings and the CIA\u2019s experimentation with LSD in the 1950s. As Morris put it in a statement released along with the trailer, the series \u201casks the question: To what extent can a democracy lie to its citizens and still, in the end, remain a democracy?\u201d\nMorris has revolutionized the use of re-enactments in documentary before, and this time it sounds like he\u2019s bringing a fresh, unconventional approach to breathing life into past events \u2014 one that involves a heck of a cast list. Peter Sarsgaard, Molly Parker, Christian Camargo, Scott Shepherd, Tim Blake Nelson, Bob Balaban, Jimmi Simpson and Michael Chernus will all appear in the series, which will be screened at the Venice Film Festival before it arrives on Netflix December 15th.\n\u2190 NOPE: 'Rick And Morty' Didn't Start A Feud With 'Game Of Thrones' Last Night\nJames Van Der Beek Is Television's Most Underrated Comedian \u2192",

        "raw_content": "We started podcasting in November 2015. That month brought bombings in Beirut and the Paris attacks. In December, we had the San Bernadino shooting. In March, Brussels; June, Orlando and Istanbul. On July 1, Bangladesh. This list excludes 18 other incidents either executed or inspired by ISIL in Egypt, Turkey, Yemen, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Lebanon, Tunisia, and Syria.\nWhen we spoke about the Paris attack, I lamented the social media response. The French flag Facebook filters and #JeSuisParis felt like the definition of privilege and opportunism to me. I was wrong. I don't pretend to have any answers to the growing conflict with ISIL. I do know that we need more collective outrage and grief, not less. Especially as ISIL-inspired attacks occur--attacks carried out by people feeling disenfranchised and marginalized--we need to embrace our humanness.\nWe have the most powerful military in the world. We have sophisticated weapons that can kill from the air. And we're using those resources. We learned today that between 2009 and 2015, the U.S. conducted 473 drone strikes, killing over 2,500 suspected terrorists and between 64 and 116 civilians. Think of that. Yet, here we are. I'm not sure ISIL can be defeated militarily. If we could have bombed an ideology into oblivion, we would have.\nDonald Trump has talked about how we need to match the force of our opponent. I agree with him in this respect: ISIL's real power is not in any tool or technique. It is in giving people something to believe in and belong to. We need to fight this ideology with a countervailing sincere, powerful belief in our shared humanity.\nThat's not to say that we should abandon the actual battle; our intelligence and military resources should be wisely deployed. We should also demonstrate that we value the lives in Turkey and Bangladesh as much as the lives in Orlando and San Bernadino. When an American citizen asks a presidential candidate why we would allow a woman wearing a hijab to work at TSA, we should answer, \"Because she's an American and because we are all working together to keep each other safe.\"\nAnd recognizing how war-weary we are as a country, we should resist isolationism and nationalism. We should recognize that perhaps our hashtags and filters do send a message that we can see past religious and ethnic differences, that there is a place in the West for people of all backgrounds, that even small indicators of belonging can matter. \"America First\" might work if this were the early 19th century, and we were fighting with canons on hills. In this new struggle all over the world to eat, dance, shop, and see movies safely, Humanity First is the better policy.\nNewer PostWhat the GOP Needs Now\nOlder PostProstitutes vs. Strippers: A Comparison",

He graduated with the Master\u2018s Diploma in Organ (1966) and the Diploma in Church Music (1967). He then worked for one year in the workshop of a major Austrian organ builder, and for another year he served as Abbey Organist at Schl\u00e4gl, Austria.\nIn 1969, he was appointed Cathedral Organist at St, Stephan\u2018s Cathedral, Vienna. From 1983 until 1990, Planyavsky held the position of Music director at that church, being responsible for choral and organ programs which in Austria are traditionally seperate jobs. In 2004, Planyavsky decided to terminate his affiliation with the Cathedral.\nSince 1980, Planyavsky has also been Professor for Organ and Improvisation at the University for Music and Drama in Vienna, with the additional function as Head of the Church Music department from 1996 to 2003.\nPeter Planyavsky also undertakes a full schedule as a recitalist, coach in workshops and masterclasses and as a member of juries. He has toured North America, Japan, Australia, South Africa and most European countries; and he has recorded a small stack of CDs and records.\nPlanyavsky has won several prizes and awards, the latest addition being the Federal Austrian Price for Music, awarded to him for his collected compositions. Planyavsky has composed extensively for choir, organ and orchestra, with a main emphasis on liturgical works.\nAs a conductor, Peter Planyavsky has peformed the great works of sacred music such as Bach\u2018s Mass in b minor, the Durufl\u00e8 Requiem and the great Haydn masses.

The answer is very unsatisfying because there is no way to give a solid answer. Each case is unique and the cost of the divorce will depend in large part on your goals, your spouses goals, the property and the issues to be presented, and most importantly whether or not you and your spouse can agree on anything.\nSince no two people are exactly alike, it stands to reason that no marriage and therefore no divorce is exactly alike. Accordingly, the cost of divorce will depend on so many factors that cannot be known until they actually take place. That said, there are some cost that can be predicted with accuracy: there is a filing fee paid directly to the court(usually $300-350); issuance of Citation and Issuance of Notice if required, the Court cost for these items is generally about $10 each; service of process varies depending on location plan $85-125 per item served if it is required. Finally, the Texas Supreme Court has now mandated that all pleadings filed on or after January 1, 2014 must be filed via electronic submission which of course means there is now a middle-man between the lawyer and the court who collects a fee for the service (as of this writing, the fees are not known, however my best guess is between $10-20 per document).\nUnfortunately, that is about all the known cost, that can be predicted. Once the case is filed, and service completed, the individuals involved have a direct affect on the amount of attorney\u2019s fees and expert cost. As your case proceeds, you may find a need for a private investigator and that cost is very difficult to calculate and depends on what is needed (surveillance, skip tracing, asset searches, etc.); the Court may require social studies, DNA testing, Home/Social studies, and in extreme cases, appointment of an attorney ad litem for the children, and there may be need to experts to testify as to the value of property, needs of the children, psychology of one or more parties, and there may be medical experts if the circumstances warrant. Each expert charges for his or her services according to experience, what is requested and the time required to conduct examinations or tests and to appear and testify. Accordingly, these cost vary and are not in every case, but this is cost that could pop up depending on the circumstances of the parties.\nAnother cost that must be considered is deposition or transcripts. Depositions are not taken in every case and generally speaking, if there are no experts, there are not going to be depositions. This, however, is just a general rule. Sometimes the parties are deposed early in the proceedings to lock down the facts, allegations claims, or just to preserve one party\u00b4s testimony if it is suspected that testimony may change in the future.\nFinally, the Attorney will charge for his/her services which is the subject of next month\u00b4s blog entry.",

Both documents were formerly negotiated and subsequently drafted and are now open for the member states to sign and thereafter ratify. However, we understand that Belize did not participate in this process, nor can it, at this time, join in the adaptation of the conventions. This is because of the UNIBAM vs. the Attorney General suit which is currently before the Supreme Court. The conventions, says Chair of the OAS\u2019s Permanent Council, Arturo Vallarino, has been in the making since 2000 \u201cWhen the General Assembly instructed the Permanent Council to study the need to prepare a draft American convention to prevent, punish, and eradicate racism and all forms of discrimination and intolerance.\u201d So will this advancement have any impact on the global lobbying for the legalization of sex unions? Guatemala\u2019s Foreign Minister insists it will not. Speaking on the issue, he stated \u201cI don\u2019t think that we are approving this to thereafter approve gay marriage. I don\u2019t think that that is the consequence of the convention\u2026 And while of course, part of the gay movement has been strong in promoting the idea of marriage as an acknowledged right, I think that the majority of states consider these topics as separate. But nevertheless, today I see a very clear convention in that if I attack someone for being gay or for his/her sexual orientation in general, this is a violation of the convention.\u201d Today, a signing ceremony for the two conventions was held.

        "raw_content": "Phone Top-up Agent Zoila Elizabeth Garcia Cowardly Assasinated in Las Flores\nA family in the Las Flores area of Belmopan is tonight desperately seeking answers in the senseless killing of their loved one. 29 year old Zoila Elizabeth Garcia, a well-known and much liked Phone Top Up Agent was gunned down near the Marla\u2019s House of Hope Children\u2019s home, about ten minutes away from her residence. She was on her way to deposit the proceeds of her sales, her motionless body was discovered around 8 p.m.\nIt is not certain who may have committed such a heinous act or why. Police investigation is still at an early stage, however they have apprehended one person of interest. On Wednesday afternoon, we spoke with Assistant Superintendent of Police, Sinquest Martinez.\nASP Sinquest Martinez- Officer in Charge of the Belmopan Police\n\u201cPolice were on mobile patrol last night when they come across Elizabeth Garcia\u2019s body. We processed the scene; the body was taken to the Western Regional Hospital, which was pronounced dead on arrival by the doctor. So far, what we have gathered, there are two things that we are following pertaining to this investigation. I am not at liberty to divulge it because it could have an impact into the investigation. We haven\u2019t established a real motive because we are getting two informations that we are following up. I will not elaborate much on it. We have one person detained that could assist us in this investigation\u201d.\nThat theory ASP Martinez mentioned is the possibility that Garcia was the target of an armed robbery. According to her mother, who is understandably devastated by the loss of her daughter, a bag containing money which Garcia had on her at the time, is missing.\nMrs. Marina Garcia- Mother of Ms. Zoila Elizabeth Garcia\n\u201cShe was murdered. She was carrying her cell phone in her hand and the money to pay that she had earned for her boss. The little bag was the only item she had missing. She was heading to pay her Top-up credit. It is assumed that it was an assault to rob her money. Earlier, I asked her to please take me to church. She took me there and then she said that she was going to go for a meal with her boyfriend\u201d.\nMs. Zoila leaves behind a throng of bereaved family and friends, as her sister told us, she was a friendly and caring individual.\nMs. Evelin Marleni Garcia- Ms. Zoila Elizabeth\u2019s Sister\n\u201cWhen I got the news, I was at my home at Armenia and I had no idea what was happening. So, to this time right now, I\u2019m just shocked.\nReporter: \u201cWhen was the last time you saw your sister?\u201d\nMs. Evelin Garcia: \u201cOn Saturday..on Saturday we went out\u2026at Spanish Lookout\u201d.\nReporter: \u201cWhat would be one of the things that you remember most about her?\u201d\nMs. Evelin Garcia: \u201cThat would be her love as sister\u2026you know\u2026we use to share everything together. She\u2026I don\u2019t know\u2026it\u2019s just hard for me. My sister was very friendly. I knew she had a lot of friends right here and everywhere\u201d.\nThey family says at this point, they are only asking for justice.\nMs. Evelin Marleni Garcia: \u201cIt\u2019s just hard because last year we lost our brother and to lose my only sister is really hard for me and my mom. She\u2018s taking it really hard. I just leave things in God\u2019s hand and I want justice because I think it is really not fair what they did to her because it didn\u2019t seem that she had any problems with anyone. Right now I\u2019m just confused and I have no clue why they did this. So, I want justice!\nMs. Zoila Elizabeth had only recently lost her brother, Ally Ismael Garcia, also know as \u201cEl British\u201d, last year in an alleged crossfire with the Belize Coast Guard north of Ambergris Caye.",

        "raw_content": "Presidential Mansion > Blog > Chicago Climate Exchange\nChicago Climate Exchange, Democratic Reps. Henry Waxman, Environmental Defense Fund, Presidential Mansion, White House\nThe closing this week of the Chicago Climate Exchange, which was envisioned to be the key player in the trillion-dollar \u201ccap and trade\u201d market, was the final nail in the coffin of the Obama administration\u2019s effort to pass the controversial program meant to combat global warming. \u201cEconomy-wide cap and trade died of what amounts to natural causes in Washington,\u201d said Fred Krupp, president of the Environmental Defense Fund, which had supported the plan. The CCX was set up in 2000 in anticipation of the United States joining Europe and other countries around the world to create a market that would reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.\nUnder the system, factories, utilities and other businesses would be given an emissions target. Those that emitted less fewer regulated gases than their target could sell the \u201cexcess\u201d to someone who was above target. Each year, the target figures would be reset lower. The Exchange was the brainchild of Richard Sandor, an economist and professor at Northwestern University, and it was modeled after a successful program that was launched in 1990 and helped control acid rain in the Midwest. It was initially funded by a $1.1 million grant from the Joyce Foundation of Chicago, and President Obama was a board member at the time. After the Democrats won the White House, the House and the Senate in 2008, businesses and investors flocked to the exchange, believing Congress would quickly approve the program. And it almost happened. The House of Representatives passed a bill proposed by Democratic Reps. Henry Waxman of California and Ed Markey of Massachusetts, which would have made cap and trade law. But the Senate couldn\u2019t muster the votes, and everything went downhill from there. In the last week, following the Nov. 2 Republican takeover of the House of Representatives, the slide became an avalanche. Investors in CCX, including Sandor and former Vice President Al Gore, sold the exchange to a company involved in commodities trading. Sale records show that Sandor cleared more than $90 million for his 16 percent stake in the company. Meanwhile, the White House has dropped all references to cap and trade from its web site; and, unlike the heralded climate summit in Copenhagen last year, a 10-day meeting in Mexico beginning Nov. 29 on the next steps to battle global warming has not even mentioned publicly by the administration.",

It shows that good people management and development influences performance through a process involving individuals, which is more effective if aligned with organisational goals. A key message is that for success it must come from the top.\nThe report was sponsored by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, Healthcare People Management Association and the Department of Health.\nAlthough it is recognized that managers are key in implementing human resource management, the survey revealed that managers often had little involvement with the development of HR policies and struggled to balance their work.\nThe survey also found that many individuals were unable to describe a link between their own individual performance and that of the organisation. Some did describe performance for individuals, the organisation and the NHS as a whole in terms of patient care and the effective use of resources.\nThe report concluded that if human resource management is to influence performance there must be an alignment between all elements of strategy with the overall vision and direction of the organization, including patient care and with the role of individuals.

        "raw_content": "Round 1 was a classic QLD Gemini race, with door to door racing and countless position changes. Round 2 is back at Morgan Park in Warwick. Put it in the calendar put it in the diary, Round 2 14-15 April.\nAbout Queensland Gemini Racing\nThe Queensland Gemini Series is one of the most competitive and value for money forms of motor sport in Australia today. Geminis, in over 30 years of competition have started the careers of many championship winning drivers including Tony Longhurst, Paul Morris, Kevin Heffernan and Wayne Wakefield, and have thrilled the crowds where ever they race, with side by side racing and daring overtaking moves.\nWhy drive in the Gemini class? For many drivers it is an excellent starting point to a career in motorsport, while for others it is a chance for them to fufill dreams of racing and following the steps of their childhood heros.\nWho drives in the series? Well anyone can, men and women of all ages race, and drivers come from many and varied backgrounds.\nThe Gemini series was born out of the need for a cost effective form of motorsport to cater for up and coming drivers. Grahame Ward, a motorsport jouranlist and Barry Nixon-Smith, a well known racing car driver, got together with south-east Queensland Holden dealers to provide 12 cars for a series of races supporting the 1975 Australian Grand Prix. Held on the old Surfers Paradise circuit, the three races with Grand Prix drivers driving the cars, were an outstanding success, with eventual main event winner Max Stewart taking the victory over Kevin Bartlett in wet conditions.\nDespite the success, the cars were sold off to Melbourne where the series took off. It was not until 1979 that the need for something new to increase interest in motorsport in Queensland, as competitor numbers had dwindled to an all time low. So it was decided that the first race for the Queensland Gemini Series would be held at Lakeside in March 1980. 13 cars started that race, and the fastest lap time was a 1 minute 13.1 seconds.\nThis compares very favourably with the fast cars of today only just creeping into the high 1 minute 6 second range. The rules over the time of 30 years have changed very little, the time gain is only due to improvements in the track, improvements in tyres, driver skills and set-up knowledge of the cars. Also, with 20 years of competition it is one of the longest running single make classes of motorsport anywhere in the world.\nIn 1986 the QGRA (Queensland Gemini Racing Association) started promoting its own race meetings. 1998 was a big year for the QGRA with the reintroduction of endurance racing to Queensland with the first of the Castol 2 Hour relay race for Geminis and HQ Holdens. Also the Geminis visited two different race tracks in the one season for the first time since the demise of Surfers Paradise in the late 1980s, with two very successful meetings at the Morgan Park circuit just outside of Warwick.\nThe series now competes at Morgan Park, Lakeside Park, Queensland Raceway,and Bathurst, with the cars also able to compete in sprints, hillclimbs and more.\nCopyright \u00a9 2011 - Queensland Gemini Racing Association Website Content Management by V6 Internet Services",

Dan Johnson hit his league leading 10th home run of the season, but it was not enough as Phil Dumatrait held the Bulls to two runs through 5.2 innings to earn his third win of the season.\nBulls starter Heath Phillips got off to a shaky start, allowing a pair of singles to start the game before an error by Joe Dillon brought across the game\u2019s first run. Brent Dlugach added a three-run homer one batter later, and Clete Thomas added a solo shot of his own to put the MudHens up 5-0 after the top of the first.\nThe Durham offense struggled to get things going against Dumatrait, until Johnson led off the fifth with a towering blast well over the right field wall for a solo homer. It was the Bulls first hit, and they would add three more in the sixth inning as they scored another run courtesy of an RBI-single by Hank Blalock. After plunking Dan Johnson, Dumatrait was replaced by Robby Weinhardt who came on to try and get out of a bases loaded jam with two outs. The Toledo right-hander did his job, getting Ryan Shealy to ground out to short to end the inning, keeping the score at 6-2.\nLeft-hander R.J. Swindle made his Bulls debut after being activated from the disabled list, tossing 2.0 scoreless innings allowing one hit while striking out two. Joe Bateman also worked 1.1 scoreless innings for Durham on the night.\nToledo relievers Daniel Schlereth and Jay Sborz each tossed an inning of scoreless relief to close out the win for the Mud Hens, who improve to 17-15 on the season. The loss drops the Bulls to 19-13 on the year, but they still remain 3.0 games ahead of Gwinnett for the Southern Division lead.\nThe two teams return to Durham Bulls Athletic Park tomorrow to continue with the second of their four-game set. Game time is set for 7:05 p.m.",

        "raw_content": "Eye Lash Growth Cycle info at Red Lotus in Portland Oregon\nI'm losing my eye lashes!! The Lash Growth Cycle is an important subject to understanding for eyelash shedding. At Red Lotus Lash Salon in Portland, we teach our clients who have lash extensions how their lash cycles affect when to get lash extensions and the importance of time between lash growth cycles. Long, thick eyelashes are touted as one of the most desirable features a person can have. Thousands of products are sold to enhance the look of lashes, from mascara to lash conditioner to lash extensions. So, when you wake up in the morning and notice an eyelash or two that have fallen out and are resting on your cheeks, it can be a little unsettling. But it's important to understand that this is normal process, because like every other hair on your body, eyelashes are perpetually moving through a natural growth cycle.\nEyelash Function\nEyelashes are not just a pretty feature on the body; they have a very specific and important function. Eyelashes are designed to prevent objects from getting in the eyes. Each eyelash is actually a sensory hair that reflexively shuts the eyelid whenever it is touched by dirt, dust or anything else that could possibly get in the eye. The upper lid typically has about 90 to 150 lashes on it, while the bottom has between 70 and 80 lashes. Most eyelashes grow to be about 10 mm long (just over 3/8 inch). But eyelash growth also depends on the person and how the lashes are treated.\nAnagen (Growth) Phase:\nThe anagen phase is also called the growth phase. This is the phase when lashes are actively growing, and it lasts between 30 and 45 days. Only about 40 percent of the upper lashes and 15 percent of the lower lashes are in the anagen phase at any one time. Each lash will grow to a specific length and then stop.\nCatagen (Transition) Phase:\nThe catagen phase is also known as the transition phase. During this phase, the lash stops growing and the hair follicle shrinks. If an eyelash falls out or is plucked out during this phase, it won't grow back right away because the follicle needs to complete the catagen phase before it can move on to the next one. This phase lasts between two and three weeks.\nTelogen (Resting) Phase:\nThe telogen phase is also referred to as the resting phase. This phase can last more than 100 days before the eyelash falls out and a new one begins to grow. Because each individual lash is in its own phase of the growing cycle, it's normal for a few lashes to fall out most days. It typically takes between four and eight weeks to fully replace an eyelash.",

        "title": "Rich Christian, Poor Christian: Either you're rich in Christ, or not in Christ at all",
        "raw_content": "Either you're rich in Christ, or not in Christ at all\nIn the process of writing this blog over the last 18 months, I've come to the conclusion that I've misnamed my blog. I no longer think that it's even really possible to be a poor Christian. I would then be acknowledging that you can be poor in Christ which I certainly do not believe! You're either a rich Christian or you're not a believer. There's no middle ground.\nFrancis Chan addresses this very issue in his book, Crazy Love, but instead of using my language of \"poor Christian,\" he calls this type of person \"lukewarm.\" In fact, he devoted a whole chapter to this particular topic entitled \"Profile of the Lukewarm.\" Here's an excerpt from that chapter:\n... When the seed is spread among the thorns, it is received but soon suffocated by life's worries, riches, and pleasures. But when the seed is sown in good soil, it grows, takes root, and produces fruit.\nMy caution to you is this: Do not assume you are good soil.\nI think most American churchgoers are the soil that chokes the seed because of all the thorns. Thorns are anything that distracts us from God. When we want God and a bunch of other stuff, then that means we have thorns in our soil. A relationship with God simply cannot grow when money, sins, activities, favorite sports teams, addictions, or commitments are piled on top of it.\nMost of us have too much in our lives. As David Goetz writes, \"Too much of the good life ends up being toxic, deforming us spiritually.\" A lot of things are good by themselves, but all of it together keeps us from living healthy, fruitful lives for God.\nI will say it again: Do not assume you are good soil.\nFrom Chan's writings, we can gather from his interpretation of Scripture that his conclusion is that either you are a Christian or you're an unbeliever that wants just a little bit of Jesus in your life. But there's no middle ground. You're all in or you're all out. You're rich in Christ or you're just plain flat broke!\nFor you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that through his poverty might become rich (2 Corinthians 8:9).\nSo, where are you at, today? Does your life appear to be more in line with the \"profile of the lukewarm\" or are you rich in Christ? Are you all in or are you all out?\nSam, Danielle, Abby, Lilly and Emma May 3, 2010 at 12:47 PM\nGreat post and I would definitely concur. The western culture church is far from the doctrines of scripture and yet we find ways to proclaim the bible as that what makes us comfortable, or luke-warm.\nBrandon Schmid May 3, 2010 at 6:05 PM\nI found this site and it reminds me of the biblical parable of the rich man and the poor woman who were making charitable donations. The poor lady quietly put in one penny and hoped her good deed would help someone else in need. The rich man boastfully put in a quarter and let everyone know what a wonderful person he is. He also mocked the poor lady for putting in so little.\nIt goes to show that God smiles on those who make donations out of goodness rather than hoping for appreciation from others.\nThanks for the site! Cheers!",

        "raw_content": "Happy Saint Patrick\u2019s Day to you.\nTwenty years ago that might have been a setup line for an old fashioned joke, but much thankfully has changed in that time. Ireland is now rightly seen as a sophisticated innovative country with one particular great resource. No, not the black stuff, it\u2019s people, that\u2019s Ireland greatest asset.\nI could claim to be Irish, but I\u2019m not, even though my father and wife were both born there. I have all the normal hang-ups of all the English. Plus, I can never understand any of those Gaelic Sports or Aussie Rules. I have family in Dublin and so I do spend time over there, look at that, I call it over there! Now, you would have to be some type of superior, arrogant Englishman not to enjoy the company of the Irish. I\u2019m not just talking about the craic, although do drop me a line as I know some great pubs close to Phoenix Park. No, it\u2019s the people and what I enjoy is their love of live and curiosity in others.\nA typical Irish greeting is \u201cHi, how are yaa?\u201d Maybe, I\u2019m just gullible, but it sounds like they mean it. It\u2019s never hard to have a conversation in Ireland, in fact it\u2019s much harder to keep quiet.\nSo what can a dull Englishman learn from this?\nIt\u2019s this\u2026.. be more approachable, more than ever in 2009, you cannot afford to be locked up in an ivory tower. Make yourself accessible, be friendly, be real, be\u2026.. Irish.\nGood Luck to Ireland in Cardiff this Saturday!",

        "raw_content": "What is the South African Guild of Actors?\nWhy the need for a South African Guild of Actors?\nThe South African Guild of Actors (SAGA) is the foremost organisation representing actors in the film, television, stage, commercial and corporate sectors in South Africa. The Guild exists to enhance actors' working conditions, compensation and benefits and to be a powerful, unified voice on behalf of artists' rights.\n1933 USA - Actors in Hollywood worked on films with unrestricted working hours, no enforced turn-around and no formal meal breaks. If they rebelled against the studios and their working conditions, they were in for a hard time. Fuelled by both idealism (the belief that mobilising the acting community can create change) and outrage, the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) was created to build a respected organisation to protect actors. SAG focused on key issues and their victories slowly created the US entertainment industry as we know it today. Notable wins include -\n1952 USA \u2013 Actors are able to claim a residual payment for television re-runs\n1953 USA \u2013 The first commercial contracts for actors\n1960 USA \u2013 After an industry-wide strike, actors have the right to claim residuals for films shown on television.\n2012 USA \u2013 The merger of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA) in March 2012 was the culmination of a thirty-two year struggle to bring the two powerful Hollywood performers' unions together.\n85 years on, SAG-AFTRA is still fighting tirelessly for improved conditions and better rights for actors.\n2018 South Africa \u2013 Notwithstanding South Africa\u2019s claim to the most progressive labour laws in the world, actors in our country are in the same position today as American actors were more than 50 years ago.\nNot recognised as \u2018employees\u2019 by the current labour laws, but rather as INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS (self-employed individuals with no regular employer), actors are, are not able to claim benefits and have no bargaining power when it comes to contacts, disputes and rates. Under the current laws, by definition, self-employed individuals are precluded from registering a labour union.\nNevertheless, it is only by mobilising as a group that actors will achieve the critical mass to make a difference in our professional lives. The time has come to stand together to improve our working conditions and to make the practice of our craft an economically viable and sustainable one.\nThe most effective way is to establish a body for artists that is in all respects equivalent to a trade union.\nKnown in the US as a guild (which is built on the same principle as a trade union), such an organisation primarily aims to:\nNegotiate and enforce collective bargaining agreements which establish equitable levels of compensation, benefits and working conditions for actors, as well as\nCollect compensation for the exploitation of actors\u2019 recorded performances i.e. collection of repeat fees.\nThese are just two of the most pressing matters facing South Africa actors working in the performance industry today. There are many more issues demanding attention and a number of injustices which must be rectified. Through an official channel such as the South African Guild of Actors (SAGA) we aim to highlight and address these formally with industry players.\nSAGA has been created to give actors a platform to articulate grievances and more importantly to propose solutions to collective problems. Its strength lies in the energy and commitment each member is able to contribute and in the union partner it has selected (UASA).\nThe entertainment industry in the US has shown that with commitment, active members pursuing a single objective and well-organised mobilisation IT IS POSSIBLE not only to impact legislation, but to re-create legislation to ensure that the acting profession is treated fairly and with respect.",

Underlining the relationship between censorship and diplomatic exigency, this paper briefly explores how Dekker\u2019s play could become sensitive again in the religio-political context of late 1619. The Whore of Babylon\u2019s apocalyptic and chivalric allegory of the various assassination attempts against Queen Elizabeth spoke powerfully to the inter-confessional political tensions which afflicted Europe in the opening moments of the Thirty Years\u2019 War. Censorship, in this instance, appears as an expression of King James\u2019s commitment to his most coveted foreign policy, the Spanish Match, and shows how European diplomacy extended into the cultural public sphere.\nMatthew Blaiden will be speaking to the title: \u2018John Lyly, Court Dramatist?\u2019\nSynopsis tbc.\n2019, Discussion Group, EMDG, English, History, SCEMS, Sheffield",

        "title": "Study Acoustics -",
        "raw_content": "Sound, whether music or unwanted noise, affects most of our lives every day. Acoustics is the study of sound. Improving our acoustic environment is a complex and rewarding career requiring skills that span many scientific and engineering disciplines. However, there is much more to sound than meets the ear. Acoustics is responsible for advances ranging from medical diagnosis to understanding climate change.\nOften we associate acoustics with music and sound recording or reproduction. Perhaps this is because, for many of us, our most conscious experience of acoustics is via our personal stereos. But audio entertainment is actually only one of many activities that call on the expertise of acousticians. This article explores a few examples to indicate the breadth of opportunity and depth of science that acoustics has to offer as a career.\nRecent breakthroughs in audio engineering include the space-saving \u201cflat-panel speaker\u201d. While a conventional speaker has a cone-shaped radiating surface that is stiff and light, the flat-panel speaker is designed to be flexible. Flat panel speakers can be built into ceiling tiles and even talking cereal packets! Interestingly, the idea was conceived from an accidental discovery whilst studying helicopter noise.\nVirtual Source Imaging (VSI) is another emerging technology in the multi-media industry. In VSI, the sound appears to originate from a virtual position. This is achieved by introducing time delays between waves propagating from two closely spaced loudspeakers. Already developed for surround-sound in PC applications such as computer games, this technology is set to spread into the rapidly growing market of home cinema.\nLaser measurement of guitar vibrating at 500 cycles per second\nAlthough some acousticians do specialise in the field of audio acoustics, many more employment opportunities are associated with reducing unwanted noise. A controversial example is the wind turbine which, after a decade of research by acousticians and other scientists, no longer deserves the reputation for noise it earned for itself in the 1980\u2019s. Aerodynamic noise from the blades is largely at inaudibly low \u201cinfrasonic\u201d frequencies and at harmless levels, and mechanical whirring noise from the gearbox and generator has been minimised by vibration isolation measures.\nOff-shore wind turbine farm\nTransportation is perhaps the largest contributor of noise and is the focus of increasingly stringent legislation. Road vehicle noise, for example, is legislated in the European Union through a drive-by test. Of the many sources of noise on a vehicle, it is sound radiated from the tyre that dominates the drone heard from nearby highways. The physical interaction between the tyre and the road is becoming better understood and this has led to developments in quieter road surfaces and designs of tyre.\nRail systems are considered environmentally-friendly, but when a new line is planned it is their noise that often forms the basis of complaints. New techniques to reduce train noise are being developed based on damping out the vibrations of the wheels and rails.\nJet engine noise is a major constraint on the capacity of airports and a blight on local residents, especially in densely populated countries. Aero-engine manufacturers such as Rolls-Royce in the UK invest considerable resources in computational models of flow noise, allowing quieter turbines to be designed. As is often the case in science and engineering, such models should be checked against experiments. Consequently, many leading companies and organisations in the field of acoustics have major experimental facilities. These may include \u201canechoic chambers\u201d which have highly absorbent walls to reduce sound reflections, \u201creverberation chambers\u201d and wind tunnels.\nAcousticians are also consulted to assess current noise levels and estimate future increases due to proposed new infrastructure. Housing developments, by-passes and airport runways are all likely to affect noise pollution and their impacts must often be predicted before planning consent is given.\nNoise is a serious issue for occupants of vehicles as well as residents. In a world shaped by marketing, cars are increasingly designed not only to have quiet interiors but to sound in keeping with the image the manufacturer wishes to portray, e.g. sporty or luxurious. The subjective way in which humans perceive sound is often referred to as psychoacoustics and is becoming a consideration in more of the goods that we buy. For example, when a car door is closed it should sound \u2018solid\u2019 not \u2018cheap\u2019.\nAircraft cabins are also noisy environments and can cause discomfort and fatigue even on short flights. An approach known as active noise control has been successfully deployed on some turboprop passenger aircraft such as the Bombardier Dash-8 and Saab 2000. Active noise control involves controlling sound with sound. By generating sound waves with opposite phase to what is measured, destructive interference can be obtained in the cabin. Significant noise reductions are possible for a relatively small penalty on the weight of the aircraft. Active noise control technology is also now widely available at airport shops in the form of \u2018Noise Cancelling\u201d headsets.\nDash 8-Q400 aircraft with Active Noise Control cabin\nOther uses of acoustics\nAcoustics also has a very significant contribution to make in gathering information and intelligence for military, geophysical, forensic and medical purposes. Sonar has been used for many decades for marine navigation since only sound waves can travel significant distances underwater. The study of underwater acoustics has led to improved understanding of climate change and marine animal behaviour such as dolphins and whales. In forensic science catastrophic events such as air crashes, explosions and gunfire incidents are frequently captured on audio recordings. By analysing these signals the cause or nature of the event can sometimes be identified from the unique sounds that they make, or their \u201cacoustic signatures\u201d. Using similar signal processing techniques, sensors monitoring the response of a patient can be analysed to infer medical conditions such as susceptibility to a stroke, or the level of consciousness during surgery.\nHow to get into acoustics?\nTo get into an acoustically related career you will probably need to study for a degree in physics or an engineering related subject at a respected university. In most courses, the number of modules specifically related to acoustics is often fairly limited, although general topics such as electronics, aerodynamics, dynamics and control will stand you in good stead.\nYou may also like to consider applying to one of the small number of specialist institutions that offer either undergraduate or postgraduate degree programmes in acoustics. Even this would not tie you to a career in acoustics since the multidisciplinary nature of the subject will open doors in many areas of science and engineering.",

        "title": "Autumn Budget 2017: Personal tax \u00bb Scott-Moncrieff",
        "raw_content": "Autumn Budget 2017: Personal tax\nA summary of the key personal tax changes announced by the Chancellor during the Autumn Budget 2017.\nRates and allowances update\nThe Chancellor once again used his Budget speech to announce further increases in the income tax personal allowance and higher rate (40%) threshold. These will rise to \u00a311,850 and \u00a346,350 respectively for the 2018/19 tax year. Again, we need to point out that this may not be passed onto Scottish taxpayers. At the moment we already have a divergence in the higher rate threshold which stands at \u00a343,000 for Scottish taxpayers on non-savings, non-dividend income and \u00a345,000 for the rest of the UK. Further details are most likely going to be announced for Scottish taxpayers in the December Scottish budget.\nCapital gains tax allowances will be increased in line with the Consumer Prices Index (CPI). The annual exempt amount for individuals and personal representatives rises from \u00a311,300 to \u00a311,700 from April 2018, while the amount for trustees rises from \u00a35,650 to \u00a35,850.\nNo changes were announced to national insurance, following the rapid scrapping of the proposals announced in the last Budget.\nThe starting (0%) rate band for savings income will remain at \u00a35,000 for 2018/19. The ISA allowance will also remain at \u00a320,000 for 2018/19, but with an increase to \u00a34,260 for Junior ISAs and Child Trust Funds.\nThe lifetime allowance for pension savings will be increased for 2018/19 from \u00a31 million (where it has remained since April 2016, when it was reduced to that figure) to \u00a31,030,000, in line with CPI.\n\u200bProperty in the spotlight\nThe Budget contained a number of notable property-related measures. Although not specifically mentioned within the Chancellor\u2019s speech, significant changes are being made to the taxation of UK property held by non-UK resident individuals and companies.\nOne of the key changes involves the taxation of capital gains made by non-residents on the sale of all types of UK immovable property. This is an extension to the existing rules, which apply only to residential property, and the intention is to create a single regime for disposals of interests in both residential and commercial property.\nThis will have a substantial impact on commercial property, although the measures include a rebasing of these properties to their market value at April 2019. Although some aspects of the reforms are fixed, these changes will be considered through a consultation document published today.\nAnother significant change concerns the taxation of income and gains arising from UK properties that are held within non-UK resident companies. From April 2020, income that non-resident companies receive from UK property, both residential and commercial, will be chargeable to corporation tax rather than income tax.\nIn addition, any gains arising on the sale of these properties will also be chargeable to corporation tax, rather than capital gains tax (CGT). For residential properties held prior to April 2020, it is likely that these will remain liable to Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (ATED) CGT and non-resident CGT, where applicable, on gains accruing prior to that date.\nStamp duty help for first-time buyers\nOne of the Budget\u2019s eye-catching announcements concerned the new relief from Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) for first-time buyers. This relief will apply from 22 November 2017 on the purchase of residential property for \u00a3500,000 or less, provided that the purchaser intends to occupy the property as their only or main residence.\nWhere the purchase price is \u00a3300,000 or less, first-time buyers will pay no SDLT at all. Where the property costs more than \u00a3300,000 but does not exceed \u00a3500,000, they will pay 5% SDLT only on the amount that exceeds \u00a3300,000.\nDraft legislation introducing the relief has been published, and we expect this to be included within the Finance Bill to be published early next month.\nPlease note that this announcement does not apply to properties purchased in Scotland, which are subject to the Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT). The Scottish Government may choose to introduce something similar, but we will have to wait until the December Scottish Budget to find this out.\nOther property issues\nIn the 2015 Autumn Statement, it was announced that from April 2019 the payment window for any capital gains tax liability arising on the sale of residential property would be reduced to 30 days from the date of disposal. It has been announced that this change will still go ahead, but will be deferred to April 2020.\nIt has also been confirmed that the annual chargeable amounts under ATED will be increased by inflation for the year ended 31 March 2019. These amounts are due for payment by 30 April 2018.\nLocal authorities will also be given the power to charge a council tax premium of up to 100% on empty properties.\nEntrepreneurs\u2019 Relief - relief after dilution of holdings\nThe Government will consult in Spring 2018 on how access to the relief might be given to entrepreneurs whose holding in their company is reduced below the normal 5% qualifying level as a result of raising funds for commercial purposes by means of issues of new shares. Allowing relief in these circumstances would incentivise entrepreneurs to remain involved in their businesses following external investment.\nSome further measures were announced potentially affecting private clients:\nCertificates of Tax Deposit. It will not be possible to purchase these with effect from 23 November 2017. Existing certificates will continue to be honoured until 23 November 2023.\nChanges to the taxation of trusts. The Government will issue a consultation document in 2018.\nRent-a-room relief. The Government will look at the current usage of the relief in order to see how it could be better targeted at longer-term lettings. This could potentially affect those using the relief for \u2018Airbnb\u2019 type lettings.\nCollecting self-assessment tax debts. The Government intends to use new technology to collect self-assessment debts faster through the PAYE system from April 2019.\nNon-compliance involving offshore structures. The Government proposes to extend the time limits for assessing such non-compliance to 12 years, with a consultation proposed for Spring 2018. They will also publish their response in December 2017 to a previous consultation on introducing additional obligations to notify HMRC of certain types of offshore arrangements.\nLate submission of returns and late payment of tax. The Government will publish their response to a previous consultation on simplifying penalties for these failures.\nTransfer of unused personal allowance. Taxpayers are currently allowed to transfer up to 10% of their unused personal allowance to their spouse or civil partner if they are a basic-rate taxpayer. The Government announced that this would now also be allowed in cases where the partner died before the claim was made.",

The following are some tips to help you find the perfect wedding venue.\nThe first thing that you need to consider is the amount of capacity that the venue is able to hold. Know how many guests you are looking to invite so that you will decide on the right venue size for your wedding. Also, there are a variety of capacities depending on whether you want a large or an intimate wedding ceremony.\nOnce you have decided on the right size for your venue, the next thing to think about is the location. You need to think about the ease of your guest to get to your event site because some areas may have geographical challenges. It is important that you consider the logistics and ensure that there is a public transit nearby so as to save your guests from the hustle of arriving at your wedding venue. You may also want to ensure that the venue you are considering has ample parking space to prevent your guests from getting stranded.\nTake into consideration the season in which you want your wedding to take place as it will play a major role in helping you choose the right venue. A good venue will be prepared for any weather condition, for instance, it will have an air conditioning, tables with umbrellas as well as a backup room to shelter you and your guests when it starts to rain.\nDecide on an appropriate budget beforehand in order to help you shortlist prospective wedding venues. Food and beverages should also be included in the budget because it will help you in the selection of the type and quality of food that you will be provided with. You need to ask about the pricing of several sites and compare their packages so you can make an informed decision.\nWhen shopping for a venue for your special day, you need to decide on your style and feel in order to help you with your search. If having outdoor weddings is your dream, then consider venues that have natural elements such as parks, and backyards. If you have a specific theme in mind, ensure that the venue decor doesn\u2019t conflict with your wedding theme.\nBefore you settle on a specific wedding venue, ensure that you meet with the individuals associated with the wedding and ask multiple questions. For instance, you may want to meet the catering manager and ask what is included in the menu. Before you hire their services, ask the facility manager if there are any major restrictions which may affect your decision. You can visit their website to see samples of their venues so you can make an informed decision.\nThe 4 Most Unanswered Questions about Venues\nWhy You Need To Recycle Junk Cars\nVehicles just like other living things have a lifespan. Junk cars are a nuisance once they occupy someone\u2019s premises without being used. This is why recycling is good as some auto parts can be used on other cars that are still in use. Junk cars are sold for cash which can provide additional amount to buy a new vehicle. There are companies that specialize in getting rid of junk cars. You can find such companies on different websites. Read on to know the importance of recycling junk cars.\nIt is rather obvious that many people sell junk cars to get cash. There are certain scrap yards that are known to offer their services for free. Old cars keep depreciating in value each year. If you want to get a decent amount of money, you have to sell your unwanted car soonest possible. Cars cause a lot of air pollution when they are about to reach the end of their lifecycle. Many people store junk cars in their back yard and with time the batteries start to leak. This is why it is important to recycle unwanted cars to solve this problem. If the components from junk cars are not properly recycled, they can release harmful substances that damage the environment.\nIn addition, despite the fact that the vehicle is useless and cannot be driven, it has a lot of parts that be reused. These parts are used to do cheap repairs for individuals who cannot afford to buy new car parts. There are times when you can find yourself spending more than it is required on car repairs that it just makes sense to purchase a new vwhicle. This is why most people send their unused cars to the scrap yard. Tires from junk cars are a good source of energy once they are burned. The tires can also get grinded to produce a substance known as crumb rubber, it is later used to make mats, shoes and floors for playground of kids. Cars from junk cars are sold at a lower price.\nAlso, lead acid batteries from junk cars are harmful and can cause health issues such as brain and kidney damage. New batteries that are manufactured most of them are made of 99% of components found in batteries of junk cars.\nLess energy is required to recover lead from batteries compared to producing fresh one from ore. Oil from car engines can contaminate groundwater and waterways. Cleaning dirty oil is done and later the oil can get reused. Selling junk cars will help you get extra space for other purposes.\nWhen You Need Exterior Window Shades\nSuch exterior window shades are those window treatments that are hanged or are attached to the exterior of the window. They are really large in order to cover up several windows or at least cover such great area that can serve as protection from the sun\u2019s heat. The external shade or the awning may offer shelter for the kids to play outside the house. They can also be attached on the open air and be shaded from that direct sunlight.\nThe window shades actually use awnings. Those awnings are really effective in keeping heat from the house as compared to the curtains or the internal shadings, particularly because they would stop rays prior to passing through the window. Studies show that such may be as much 20 C cooler under the sun\u2019s heat but it takes no college degree to know that the shade is much better to stay in the raging sun at 1 PM.\nYou should also be aware that the exterior shades do come in various sizes and shapes and they may also be manually operated or electric motor driven but each one of them would serve one purpose, they would keep the rooms cooler and also indirectly lower the electric bills. During summer time, you can also stay under them on quick rain.\nThose manually operated models should be retracted when the winds would be too strong. Also, there are motorized variations that pull the fabric back if they detect certain circumstances are not in favor of longevity.\nYou must know that not all shades are actually awnings. This may keep such simple and easy. Those external shades act like one with the only difference and they are also parallel to the window on which they are attached to. This solution would come with advantages over the awning. The benefits include a lesser time spent on maintenance and there is also much saving of space.\nThe window shades are also available in those manually operated and motorized variations which particularly differ in their cost and the ease that they may be operated. Such motorized shades are advised to be installed on those windows which are hard to reach such as the large windows that are on the second floor. Actually, there is nothing more convenient than the exterior window shade that knows when to go down or up or one that may be controlled right from your couch.\nExternal window shades are usually made with the use of strong fabrics that are weather resistant and durable. Old traditional window protections would use wood but they come with new technologies.\nIf You Think You Understand Treatments, Then This Might Change Your Mind\u2026\nHow to Seek for an Auto Transport Company\nYou may be relocating to a new place or could have bought that car that you have been dreaming of but the problem is, the distance involved is too long or could even be overseas so transporting your beloved car to the required destination is proving to be a real head-scratcher as you feel the options at your disposal are limited.

Researches have shown that whey proteins have healing properties for cancer related illness or the chronic ones. If proven beneficial these globular proteins might be the solution to the widespread cause of cancer.\nWhey Proteins \u2013 Basic Facts\nWhey protein is made from several globular proteins and it is the liquid material taken from cheese production. These are often sold as a form of food supplement and an alternative medication. When healthcare professionals learn its medical benefits they began to show interest in this protein. When researchers have found out that it has anti-inflammation properties thru a research in rodents they began to explore more details about this phenomena. Even if no human tests have been conducted so far the results from the said tests are actually related to human body.\nAs mentioned earlier, whey protein is the end product of cheese production. The liquid that is formed when the milk coagulates is the source of whey proteins. Lactalbumin is one of the proteins found in this liquid. If the coagulated milk is already removed then those proteins that are beneficial to humans are extracted. With this, you now have the whey protein. Take note that extraction of essential proteins is the next thing that must be done.\nThere are different types of proteins present in whey like the alpha-lactalbumin, immunoglobins, beta-lacatalbumin, and serum albumin. Normal functioning of the body is necessary and these proteins are proven essential in keeping the body healthy and highly functional.\nWhat Are the Reasons That Makes Proteins Vital\nProteins are one of the essential nutrients that is necessary for humans to live. Almost every part of the human body has proteins in it from the vital organs to the hair, nails and skin. Since almost all parts of the body are made from proteins it is indeed essential to have a regular source of protein in the food that people eat. Proteins are not just part of the structures found in your body, this also helps in regulating blood pressure, enzymatic activity and one\u2019s blood pressure. In whey proteins, you have what you call albumins which is necessary in making sure your body has enough fluids. Keep in mind that the cells responsible for your immune system, the enzymes and hormones are also made from protein. You must remember that your body needs a good source of protein in order to make your body highly functional. If there is lack of balance in the fluids found in the body then it might cause edema or swelling plus the structural integrity of muscles and organs will disintegrate without proper supply of protein. If the enzymes and hormones don\u2019t work properly then some bodily processes will be affected too the same goes with immune cells they may not properly defend the body if the supply of protein \u2026",

        "title": "Book Review: The Partisan Divide: Congress in Crisis | David J. Shestokas",
        "raw_content": "Much of my writing on the Constitution is inspired by an effort to bring Americans together in understanding our founding principles. The Constitution itself is not Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservative, it is American, but too often today Americans spend more time being confrontational while failing to seek our common ground. This situation is most evident in the acrimony and distrust on display in the United States Congress.\nWhile I have watched this acrimony develop and try to make a contribution in my way to address the problem, I had not examined why it exists.\nThe Partisan Divide explains how we have come to this situation in detail and offers some ideas as to how to overcome the gridlock in Congress. When people complain about how the president oversteps his constitutional authority, this book gives insight into why that happens: Congress has failed to assert its constitutional powers to control the executive.\nFew people could have the insights into the problems with Congress that Republican Tom Davis and Democrat Martin Frost bring. They have 40 years combined service in Congress. Both served as the congressional campaign chairmen for their respective parties.\nAlong with journalist Richard Cohen, who has been writing about Congress for The National Journal, Congressional Quarterly and Politico Davis and Frost have answered an important question that has been on my mind: How have we gotten to such a point of political hostility?\nWhile they address the usual suspects, such as the partisan media (e.g. Fox News and MSNBC), as I read the book it became clear that such media are more the product of certain phenomena than the cause of the problem.\nFive critical factors can be found in the book and the authors provide statistical, historical and anecdotal evidence of these factors at work:\n(1) The ideological sorting of the parties;\n(2) Residential sorting, where people tend to live in enclaves of like-minded people;\n(3) Political gerrymandering of districts;\n(4) Better targeting of vulnerable districts by both national parties and interest groups;\n(5) Increased mobility of voters and workers, resulting in less community identification.\nCongress at Odds, Runaway Executive\nThe result of these dynamics are the election of House members who are rigidly ideological in their approach to government. Such rigid ideology is rewarded with reelection. Departure from the ideology, whether liberal or conservative is punished with defeat.\nThe result is a Congress unable to assert its constitutional authority and allows the executive branch to expand its own authority beyond constitutionally prescribed limits.\nThe Partisan Divide has provided a new understanding for my own frustrations with the expanded executive branch and the dangers that poses to our freedoms.\nThe book proposes a number of remedies to address the problems. Among the proposals are suggestions regarding the conduct of primaries and how congressional districts are drawn. There is also a brief discussion of a dangerous constitutional amendment providing Congress expanded powers and altering the First Amendment.\nWith the exception of tinkering with the First Amendment\u2019s Freedom of Speech, it is an incredibly worthwhile book describing our problems and posing some solutions. I had known our politics had turned nasty. Davis, Frost and Cohen opened my eyes regarding why.",

        "raw_content": "How To Train A Dog The Right Way\nYou can learn how to train a dog as long as you are someone that can be patient. This can take a few tries, but once you get it down you\u2019ll be pleased with how it turns out. Get to know more now and see how you can improve your training skills.\nTraining your dog is mostly a matter of being patient and repeating tasks time and again. You have to be sure that you keep your temper in check because just yelling at your pet will make them not want to do anything for you. You need to make it to where you\u2019re saying commands or doing movements that lead to the dog doing something like sitting or speaking. You can even have commands for stopping your dog from barking instead of just shouting so that it makes it a lot easier to calmly get your dog to behave properly.\nTraining is easier to do if there are treats that you can give you dog. There are some people that use a clicking device so there\u2019s a sound that happens when a treat comes out. That helps the dog know that what they are doing is getting them the treat and they\u2019ll start to respond to the sound and the command before it a lot faster than just using treats alone. Sometimes this works differently depending on your dog and how trained it is already, so try to find what you can do that works well for your pet.\nYou can take your dog to a training class if you don\u2019t have a ton of time. Make sure that you research who is out there and that you find out if they have any kind of reviews in the past you can trust. What if people have gone there and their dog was poorly trained and was worse off than before? You can generally avoid bad people if you look up any company or trainer online. For people with no reviews online you may want to go elsewhere until they have some kind of a reputation you can confirm.\nMake sure everyone in your family is updated on how to train your dog. If they are not, then this can end up being a problem. You don\u2019t want one person to be training the dog to speak by giving it a treat every time if your method is different, for example. Have a family meeting and make a list of what you\u2019re trying to teach the dog and how it\u2019s going to happen. Then, when everyone is on the same page it makes it better because then the dog is not going to get confused every time they interact with someone in the home.\nGetting to know how to train a dog is as easy as following the tips above. Nobody has to have a dog that isn\u2019t properly trained. If you can\u2019t do it, then at least hire help so that you are able to enjoy having your pet around.\n7 Of The Best Dog Training Tools\nThey say it is better to train a dog when it is a pup then when fully grown, but this does not mean it is impossible to train a mature dog. Dog owners can train their pets to have a better conduct (behavior) using different tools. Understand that a training tool does anything you can use to teach your dog, and it can be a device or another kind of item such as edibles. With that in mind, here is a list of seven of the best dog training tools out there.\n1. Chew Toys\nA chew toy works best for puppies. It can be used when training the dog about aggression as well as help it through its chewing phases. The heavy duty types are the best because they can save you money as they will last longer. Expect to go through a few of these toys before your pet gets out of the chewing phases.\n2. Chew Deterrent Spray\nYou can use deterrent sprays to train your puppy not to chew on inappropriate items such as furnishings. You can use the spray on the dog to keep it from chewing, licking, or gnawing on itself more so if it has OCD tendencies that can make it chew itself raw.\nA harness is an excellent tool to use when trying to teach your pet leash manners. It will gently discourage it from pulling when out on a leash. It is tough trying to keep your dog in check when it gets antsy while on a leash, more so a big adult dog; they tend to have powerful tugs on the leash.\nStart training your dog about leash manners put using a front-chest attachment; they tighten across the chest and shoulders when the strap is pulled and will not have any painful experiences for your dog.\nA leash will is a tool you can use to train your dog about good behavior when out on walks. It will keep them from wandering off, teaching the dog to stay close and this will lead to having a pet that can you can go out for walks with and not worry about it wandering off when not on the leash.\n5. Collars\nCollars are used to attach a leash as well as the dog\u2019s ID tag. They come in different materials and often picked based on a dogs, breed, strength, and required level of training.\nThere are also GPS collars which can be used to track your pet\u2019s location, as well as their activity. We recommend these 4 trackers for locating your pet.\nOne of the most popular tracking collars is from Whistle. We suggest you read the full Whistle 3 review.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/gpsdogcollars/\n6. Clickers\nA clicker is a device you can use to train your dog to follow commands. The pet will learn to list and expect a particular sound before making any move. You can opt to use bells if you do not have a clicker.\nUse these a reward for every time your dog learns, understands, and executes a particular command. Choose a flavor your dog loves as it will make your mission more efficient. Do not pick brands that have ingredients such as wheat, soy, corn, and artificial flavors. You can do one better by opting to use dental chews as treats. It helps manage the dog\u2019s need to chew while giving it a fresh breath and clean teeth.\nThe above tools can be used to effectively training a small or adult dog. However, it always is better and easier to train your pet when it is a puppy than when it\u2019s a mature dog.",

        "raw_content": "Home digital marketing Facebook social media Twitter Youtube How #SocialMedia has Changed #VideoGames\nHow #SocialMedia has Changed #VideoGames\nSunday, October 25, 2015 digital marketing, Facebook, social media, Twitter, Youtube\nstealthybox.com\nA few months back, I wrote a piece on the way social media has changed the way film distribution is handled. That rule does not apply exclusively to film by any stretch of the imagination, and in fact, it applies to just about every kind of entertainment medium you can name. This time around, I'm looking at video games, the most successful entertainment medium of the 21st century.\nIt's only a few decades older than social media itself, but the advent of online communication has still had a pronounced effect on its development. In days past, video game production, as far consumers were concerned, was a dark and mysterious place. Magazine features would give you some insight into the various intricacies, as would any experience fiddling around with DIY development tools, either on PC or early consoles like the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and BBC Micro.\nNow, every stage of a game's birth is usually chronicles through social media posts, as fans are drip fed a tantalising chronicle of still images, early engine tests, alpha footage, beta footage and even offered early access in some cases. It enables developers to give their audience a far more active role in the creation of new content, provided they actually listen to what their fans want. This deeper insight into the infrastructure of game development has likely played a role in the massive increase in indie development, since it's that much easier to research what other developers do and take influence from it.\nThis is given rise to an era in which the release of a game is actually a part of the development. In days past the idea of releasing an unfinished product would have been ridiculous, but now games are released on 'early access' frequently and social media becomes a conduit for constructive feedback ahead of the full version. Minecraft was available for more than a year before the actual 'full' version was released in 2011. Early versions of games can also act as a draw to gain funding to actually finish the game properly.\nThis is a smaller aspect of the wider Kickstarter revolution. Being able to promote concepts for games, rather than just games, has meant that crowd-funded game development has taken off in a huge way. Fans have been able to throw their weight behind franchise reboots that might never have happened otherwise.\nThe most successful example to date is probably Elite: Dangerous, the spiritual successor to the legendary 1984 game Elite, which had you space-trucking between hundreds of planets trading goods, smuggling or just engaging in piracy if you weren't availed of a moral compass. Through social media promotion, the original developers were able to galvanize both young and old fans into giving the franchise a new lease on life.\nmoargeek.com\nCrowdfunding has also removed the barrier between publishers and developers, allowing the latter far more creative autonomy. There is a dark side to it, as some projects have turned out to be out and out scams in the past, last year a project called Mansion Lord, which had raised more than $30,000 firstly via Kickstarter and later Paypal, and then completely vanished. The updates stopped rolling in, the main website went down and it became increasingly (and excruciatingly) clear to those who had invested that they weren't ever going to see the game, or their money back. Happily, nightmare tales like those aren't all that common, and there are plenty of projects that got all the way to completion.\nOf course, social media has also had a pronounced effect on gaming on the other side of development. When the PS4 was revealed for the first time, so was the Dualshock 4, the most drastic controller redesign Sony have done since the days of the original Dualshock for the PS1. The most significant addition? The 'Share' button. Nestled opposite the pause button (renamed as 'Options'), it allows players to instantly share stills and video clips of their gaming exploits to their social media pages, as well as YouTube.\nBeyond this, both the Xbox One and the PS4 are outfitted with software which makes it far easier to livestream gameplay to Twitch, which, of course, links directly to whichever social media platform the player wants it to. Recently, when the limited time beta for Star Wars: Battlefront was released, Facebook was briefly flooded with thousands of clips of the funniest/craziest/most awesome moments, such as the one below.\nLet's Play culture is massive, and it's changed the face of gaming drastically. Promoting a game now involves reaching out to various YouTube and Twitch heavy hitters to see if they're willing to film themselves playing it for an hour or so. More importantly though, it's turned consumers into voluntary advertisers. When someone buys a new game, and then excitedly starts sharing their progress on Facebook, suddenly all those people are being offered an additional incentive to get it too, a far more potent one than seeing an ad on the side of a bus or on some random website.\nIt's worth remembering as well that, rather than one simply influencing the other, the two mediums have actually shared influenced almost evenly. Twitter in particular is all based around points accumulation and leveling, and other aspects of gaming have crept their way into the social media mold, it's a phenomenon better known as gamification.\nPersonally, I always preferred the more 'first-hand' social side of gaming, as in, with other people who are actually in the room with you, but despite what some people say, neither online gaming nor the social media revolution have diminished the appeal of such a thing. Social media has allowed gaming to make massive developmental strides, and although I could do without the armada of headset-laden imbeciles screaming their way through Five Nights at Freddie's in the hope of reeling in a few hundred more subscribers, but overall, the outlook for the future is bright.\nHow #SocialMedia has Changed #VideoGames Reviewed by Callum Davies on Sunday, October 25, 2015 Rating: 5\ndigital marketing Facebook social media Twitter Youtube",

These local residents represent different demographics of our town, and together raise the funds for grantmaking in Southborough and decide on the most impactful grants for our community.\nInspired by his work as a Trustee at the Foundation for MetroWest, Tom envisioned the creation of a Southborough focused non-profit dedicated to identifying and addressing needs, often hidden, within our community. Tom\u2019s vision in launching the Southborough Community Fund (SCF) was to rally the many residents who want to give back to our town but may not have the time or tools to identify local needs and determine how to make significant community impact. His goal with SCF is to provide townspeople with a trustworthy, well run charitable vehicle through which they can support a wide variety of important community projects and programs addressing important challenges in our town.\nSince launching in 2014, Tom has leveraged his 30+ years of venture capital experience with Battery Ventures to build the SCF board, implement appropriate governance structures, raise capital, and begin to scale impact in the Southborough community. He has also brought best practices to the organization through his board and trustee work with other non-profit institutions such as The St Mark\u2019s School, Grassroots Soccer, The Foundation for MetroWest, Hub Financial Charities, and his alma mater The University of Notre Dame.\nTom and his wife Shari moved to Southborough in 1992 where they have raised their now college age children, Sean and Paige.\nAndrew\u2019s family roots are to be steeped in local family-owned businesses. Like generations before him, Andrew owns a local business, Andrew Abu Realtors. Living and working in the community has provided Andrew with a close up view of some of the struggles people in our community face. It\u2019s his desire to ameliorate the needs of the community that drew him to become a member of the Southborough Community Fund.\nBefore joining SCF, Andrew served on the Board of Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, Board of Visitors for both Fay School and Worcester Academy. Additionally, he has served as a Boy Scout Leader and has worked on the annual fund committee for Fay School, Bancroft School and Worcester Academy.

He joined the Real Estate industry in 1990 where he developed a reputation for outstanding customer service. In September 2004, Andrew parlayed his entrepreneurial spirit and enthusiasm for the business by forming his own real estate company. Andrew maintains top production status consistently in our county, but he measures his success by the trust and confidence that his clients place in him. Andrew, his wife Jane met at Boston College. They have three children; Michael who now lives and works in Seattle, Catie who lives and works in Connecticut and Mary who is a senior at Marist College.\nBetsy Crowley\nBetsy has years of experience with nonprofit and philanthropic organizations as well as educational institutions in Southborough and Worcester.

        "title": "Speedmonkey: Aston Martin - every model explained",
        "raw_content": "Aston Martin - every model explained\nAston Martin currently professes to sell 15 different cars. They are (deep breath) One-77, V12 Zagato, Vanquish, DBS Coupe, DBS Volante, Rapide, DB9 coupe, DB9 Volante, V12 Vantage Coupe, V12 Vantage Roadster, V8 Vantage S Coupe, V8 Vantage S Roadster, V8 Vantage Coupe, V8 Vantage Roadster and Cygnet.\nThat's a lot of different models from a manufacturer who produces 4,000 cars a year. Aston Martin claim to make cars that look uniquely Aston Martin. That, with the badges removed, could only be Aston Martins. The problem is, it could be said, they have gone so far down the route of making an absolutely identifiable car that all modern Aston Martins look the same.\nOr do they? We'll try and unpeel the same/different skins and try and make some sense of Aston Martin's current range.\nFrom that long list we need to extract basic model types. Lets start with the two bespoke models - V12 Zagato and One-77. Both are expensive and available only in limited quantities.\nThe One-77 is limited to a production run of 77 and costs \u00a31,200,000. It has a 7.3 litre V12 engine which produces 750bhp - and all without the use of turbo or superchargers.\nThe V12 Zagato is basically a V12 Vantage in fancy Italian dress. It costs \u00a3400,000 and 150 are being made - or rather it cost \u00a3400,000 and all 150 have been sold. They're all gone and will be secreted away in dust free environments where their owners will cherish them and drive 100 miles a year in them.\nNow we move on to the mainstream Aston Martin model line up which cost mere hundreds of thousands of pounds, euros or dollars and which you can trot down to your friendly dealer and purchase safe in the knowledge that they are not all sold out.\nThe Vanquish has a 5.9 litre V12 and costs \u00a3190,000. It is a new car and based on the DBS coupe. The Vanquish is Aston Martin's flagship car - the company describes it as a luxury sports car.\nThe DBS is available either as a Coupe or Volante, which is Italian for 'flying'. In this context Volante means it's a convertible. The DBS is a sports GT version of the DB9 and was the flagship car until the Vanquish arrived. It uses the same V12 engine as in the Vanquish and costs between \u00a3180,000 and \u00a3196,000. The DBS is being phased out due to the arrival of the Vanquish. James Bond used a DBS in Casino Royale.\nThe Rapide is easily identifiable from it's lookalike siblings in that it is a four door saloon. But one that is still instantly identifiable as an Aston Martin. The Rapide is fitted with a 5.9 litre V12 that produces 470bhp. It costs between \u00a3150,000 and \u00a3163,000.\nThe DB9, in Coupe or Volante guises is basically a 2 door coupe that sits slap bang in the middle of the Aston Martin range. It's been recently revised. The engine is the 5.9 litre V12 with 517bhp and it costs \u00a3132,000 in Coupe and \u00a3142,000 in Volante form.\nThe Vantage models are a little more troublesome purely because there are so many of them. They come in 4.7 litre V8 and 5.9 litre V12 configurations, in Coupe and Roadster forms. There is also the V8 Vantage S, which is a standard V8 Vantage (Coupe or Roadster) with an extra 10bhp and costing an extra \u00a310,000. The whole Vantage range spans from \u00a385,000 for the V8 Vantage Coupe to \u00a3150,000 for the V12 Vantage Roadster. The following images should help unravel matters somewhat.\nV12 Vantage Roadster (flipped for same perspective)\nV8 Vantage S Roadster\nFinally we come to the runt of the litter - the Cygnet. Basically a Toyota IQ with 1.3 litre engine and costing \u00a331,000\nLabels: Aston, Blogs, Supercars",

        "raw_content": "Video: An elementary school teacher's life after graduation\nEducational technology grad student Kelsey Barnes struggles to make ends meet while teaching\nPhoto by Abisai Alvarez | The State Press\nElementary school teacher and recent ASU grad student, Kelsey Barnes, helps a students with an activity at Village Meadows Elementary School in Phoenix, Arizona, on Thursday, Nov. 1, 2018.\nBy Abisai Alvarez | 11/14/18 3:12am\nKelsey Barnes: [00:13] My name is Kelsey Barnes, (and) I am a third grade teacher at Village Meadows Elementary School in the Deer Valley School District. I am currently attending ASU to get my master's in educational technology.\nKelsey Barnes: [00:51] I wanted to be a teacher since I was eight. My first teacher in third grade was just really inspirational. She constantly was making connections with kids, and it really inspired me. Since then, just going through the I-Teach program with ASU solidified the fact this is what I want to do.\nKelsey Barnes: [01:16] So being a teacher, I knew I wasn't gonna make a lot of money, but I didn't realize how little money I was going to be making. I definitely over estimated how much I would get paid at the end of things.\nKelsey Barnes: [01:34] Being a teacher is very demanding and what a lot of people don't realize is it's not a 9-to-5 job. So many people are like, \"Oh but you have summers off, and you get winter break, and you get spring break,\" but you really don't. I think I got two weeks off this summer for summer vacation when my students had two months off. I attended several trainings to further my education on teaching and expand my knowledge on education. Everyday when I go home, I have a stack of papers to grade. I go home, and I lesson plan. I think of new strategies to incorporate to get my students to understand what I'm teaching.\nKelsey Barnes: [02:20] (Teachers) don't make that much money. I have several bills to pay between student loans, credit card debt, rent and all the other bundles that come with living on your own (such as) food, gas, money, all of that stuff. I don't make enough teaching. I'm considering moving back home with my parents just so I can save that extra $1,000 to $2,000 a month on bills.\nKelsey Barnes: [02:48] I spend about 50 hours a week at school within these four walls. I get here at 7:30 (am) on Monday and Friday and leave around 4:30 (pm). On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, I get here at 6:30 (am), and I stay until I can leave. I have to get here early because I do tutoring on Tuesday and Thursday just to make extra money, and I have a coding robotics club on Wednesdays. So with all the challenges and struggles, teaching does give me these kids that make it 100 percent worth it every day. I couldn't imagine doing anything but this. I always say if I did win the lottery, I would keep teaching because I don't do it for the money. I do it for the kids. They honestly just melt my heart everyday.\nReach the reporter at aaalva11@asu.edu or follow @abisai_alvarez on Twitter.",

        "raw_content": "A thought struck me as I was praying my rosary last night. I was in bed, barely conscious, struggling to stay awake to finish my last couple of decades. I think I drifted off somewhere in the middle of the fourth Joyful Mystery, but not before a powerful and humbling realization occurred to me.\nIt happened as I prayed the words of the Fatima Prayer, or the \"O My Jesus.\" Their meaning hit me in a new way ~ in a way that applies to some of the disturbing recent events in our society, and that gave me a different perspective on these situations.\nWhat are some of the horrible events I have in mind? There is of course the recent Planned Parenthood scandal, which revealed the company's selling of the body parts of aborted babies. Not to mention the drama with Planned Parenthood's president that has followed. Articles about this disgusting, heartbreaking situation have been flooding my Facebook newsfeed lately, and the whole thing makes me both angry and sad.\nI read a news story the other day about two teenage brothers who stabbed to death their parents and three of their siblings (between the ages of 5 and 12), leaving only two of their siblings alive (a 2-year-old and a 13-year-old). It is a tragedy that disturbed me to the core, and that has destroyed people's lives, and that doesn't make any sense.\nA massive satanic statue was erected in Detroit this past weekend. It was unveiled in an undisclosed location in front of a couple hundred satanists who were cheering and yelling, \"Hail, Satan.\" I live in the metro-Detroit area ~ this disturbing event is way too close to home for my liking. And furthermore, let me tell you, Satan does not need to be in Detroit. Anyone who's ever been to Detroit knows how devastated, terrifying, and godless that city is.\nWhat kind of terrible person do you have to be to kill an unborn child and sell their body parts for profit? Or to murder gruesomely your own parents and young siblings? Or to worship Satan? These kind of people are alive and active in our society right now, committing terrible actions. What are we to do about them? What are we to do in this world, with all of this deeply disturbing, grave immorality going on around us?\nI know that I sometimes find myself judging these people and the state of their soul. Seeing them as disgusting and wicked human beings. Feeling angry over the awful things they do.\nBut the words of the \"O My Jesus\" have a different ring to them. The prayer goes, \"O my Jesus, forgive us our sins; save us from the fires of hell; lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy.\"\nNot some souls. Not the best souls. All souls. \"Lead all souls to heaven.\"\n\"Especially those in most need of Thy mercy.\" Not especially the virtuous ones. Not especially the holiest ones. The ones in most need of mercy.\nAs I prayed the \"O My Jesus\" last night, the meaning of those words really sunk in, as my mind immediately thought of all the people involved in the ungodly situations that I mentioned. The president of Planned Parenthood. The troubled teenage brothers. The Satanists. They are in dire, dire need of mercy. They are among those who are in most need of mercy.\nAnd Jesus wants them in heaven. He aches for all souls to go to heaven, even those who are seemingly the worst of the worst.\nAnd we as Christians are called to pray for them. That is what these people need. Not judgment, not rejection, not condemnation. But prayer. Their broken, misguided souls need us to pray for them to Jesus, that He would have mercy on them.\nAnd we need to want heaven for them. We are called to desire that their souls would get to heaven, just as Jesus does. And we must do our part in trying to make that happen, by praying for them. Whether they repent and convert or not lies on them; it is out of our hands. But what is in our hands is the ability to pray for them. And we must pray.\nSo in the midst of all these horrific, immoral events happening in our world right now, we must remember the words of the Fatima Prayer and heed their meaning. Jesus wants all souls in heaven, especially those in most need of His mercy. And as we remember this message, we cannot forget to pray for just that: for these misguided souls to receive mercy and heaven.\nLabels: prayer, reflections, thoughts\nBeautiful! And so very, very true. Isn't it amazing how you can recite things and not really pay attention to them until suddenly -- and then it hits you like a ton of bricks. And you're left amazed.\nThank you, Elizabeth! Yes, it is amazing, isn't it! That's exactly what happened when these thoughts struck me. I've prayed the \"O My Jesus\" who knows how many times, and all of a sudden, out of the blue, the meaning of the words really hit me.",

        "raw_content": "Emmaus House is a cluster of five buildings on the corner of Hank Aaron Drive and Haygood Avenue in the Peoplestown neighborhood just south of Turner Field.\nFounded by the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta, Emmaus House has an operating budget of $650,000 that is supported by foundations, individuals, and the Diocese Of Atlanta. We offer over 150,000 hours of direct service in programs for youth, adults, seniors and families each year.\nWelcoming and respecting all, Emmaus House seeks to diminish poverty and its broader consequences by strengthening individuals, families and communities through education, assistance and social action.\nTo be recognized as a model of God\u2019s compassionate community where people from all walks of life work together joyfully to diminish poverty and its broader consequences by striving for economic security, social justice, dignity and peace, thus transforming hearts and empowering minds and wills.\nThe goals for Emmaus House are both short and long term in structure. Overall they are designed to improve economic security, address the immediate need for social, material, educational and spiritual support and to educate the larger community about issues of social justice.\nEmmaus House Founder: Father Ford\nIn 1967, Father Austin Ford, an Episcopal Priest and advocate for civil rights, moved into 1017 Hank Aaron Drive (formerly Capitol Avenue) along with two nuns and a seminary student. The home purchased with the support of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta was a dilapidated two-story rooming house. With no real plan Father Ford and his colleagues went to work fixing up the house. Neighborhood children started showing up at their doorstep asking to come in and parents soon followed informing Father Ford of their needs. Like the settlement houses of the 1920s, Father Ford garnered resources to benefit Peoplestown residents and established an after-school program, once-a-month transportation to Reidsville State Prison for family members of inmates, chapel services, hot meals, and a poverty rights office. As a strong advocate for integration, Father Ford encouraged families to send their children to majority white schools when the courts mandated that Atlanta provide free transportation to any African-American child. Ford was also instrumental in winning a landmark lawsuit granting welfare recipients the right to a hearing before the state reduced their grants. Under Father Ford\u2019s leadership and the countless volunteers that supported his efforts, Emmaus House evolved into an important resource for the Peoplestown community.\nRead Father Ford\u2019s personal account of his relationship to Emmaus House here as told to LeeAnn Lands.",

        "raw_content": "Column by John Markley, posted on September 04, 2005\nIntellectually shaky positions are often set up in such a way as to make them utterly impervious to reason. Present a hardcore Marxist with a refutation of his doctrine, and he'll reply that of course you can't perceive the truth of Marxism, because you are trapped within the class consciousness of the bourgeoisie. Your opposition is exactly what Marx's theory predicts, and so your attempt at refutation, no matter how well-argued, serves only to prove that Marxism is in fact true. You don't think Freudianism presents an accurate picture of the human psyche? Of course you don't, you're experiencing the very \"resistance\" that Freud said you would. You don't think that Freemasons are secretly controlling the world? Well, the fact that there's no evidence for it just goes to show how powerful their grip really is; how else could they possibly cover their tracks so well?\nOne of the principle defenses for the state is, I have realized, much the same. This was brought home to me by the tragic situation in New Orleans, which in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina has descended into violent chaos. In response to this, many have said that the situation in New Orleans--looting, random violence, attacks on people attempting to bring outside aid--show the necessity of the state, because it shows us the chaos that ensues when the government is not there to maintain order.\nThere is just one problem with this--New Orleans remains within the jurisdiction of its government. The ruling state still maintains its claim to a monopoly on the use of force. Agents of law enforcement are still present in the city. And yet, violence and looting continues. The state has not renounced the role of maintaining law and order--it has kept its claim to that vital function, and failed to perform it. Thus, the failure of the state monopoly is held up as proof of that very monopoly's necessity!\nTo get a sense for how fallacious this is, consider a real-world analogy. In the 1950s, the government of communist China collectivized agriculture, effectively claiming a monopoly in food production. The government then proceeded, through its ideologically driven mismanagement of the nation's agriculture, to utterly devastate food production. In the absence of any private sector food sources to make up for the shortfall, mass starvation set in and 30 million people died. This is a chilling example of state monopoly at its worst. But, if we accept the logic of many of the commentators on the New Orleans situation, this should be taken as proof of just how essential a government monopoly in agriculture is. After all, look at the horrors that ensued when the state failed to produce food!\nThus, there is no argument against the state that can register. If the state performs its functions well, that is proof that we need the state. If the state performs its functions poorly, the resulting misery is, we are told, also proof that the state is needed. The result is a position that is as impervious to attempts at argument as Marxism, Freudianism, fundamentalism, or belief in Masonic conspiracies.\nI do not think this is produced by willful intellectual dishonesty; it seems to be a pattern of thought that people easily slip into without realizing it. This may help explain why a single example of an unpleasant area with no state (which are usually themselves not anarchies of long standing, but are instead the wreckage left by failed and especially malicious states, e.g. Somalia) is often seen as an adequate refutation of anarchy, but no amount of incompetence and failure, no number of injustices and atrocities can ever shake people's trust in the state. How could they, when so many people have, without even realizing it, turned statism into a position that can never be touched by any evidence?\nJohn Markley is a freelance writer and newspaper reporter from Illinois .

Reaching this target would save the equivalent of electricity used by 4.6 million typical households in the Southwest and require an investment of $17 billion. The investment would be split between utilities and their customers and yield a resulting savings on energy purchases along with public health benefits of $37 billion\u2014or a net savings of $20 billion.\nOther benefits of fully implementing Best Practice efficiency programs include:\nAvoid or close 32 large power plants in the region\nReduce CO2 emissions from power plants equivalent to taking 6.2 million passenger vehicles off the road by 2020\nSave 18.5 billion gallons of water per year by 2020 through less power plant operation\nThe report identifies the most effective utility energy efficiency programs across the country and analyzes the costs and benefits of implementing these programs in the southwestern states of Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. It includes descriptions of the programs, state-by-state analysis, and a roadmap that policymakers can follow to achieve the 21% energy savings goal and benefits by 2020.\nUtilities in the Southwest have made considerable progress in helping their customers save electricity. But the report also urges further policy action \u2014 from adopting energy savings goals or requirements to allowing utilities to earn a profit when they implement effective energy efficiency programs for their customers.",

        "title": "Tampa Bay Crime Report by Leigh Clifton: Charges Reduced in David Perry's Broome County Fraud Case",
        "raw_content": "Charges Reduced in David Perry's Broome County Fraud Case\nDavid Perry, the only suspect in the disappearance of Police cadet Kelly Rothwell , of Indian Rocks Beach,FL had fraud charges in New York State reduced to misdemeanor charges on Wednesday after Perry's attorney, John Scanlon convinced the judge that some of the testimony by Perry's co-workers was based on hearsay and not evidence.\nPerry was originally charged with Felony Insurance Fraud in Broome County, N.Y. after a Grand Jury met in February to hear those witnesses testify to charges that Perry, an ex Corrections Officer at the Elmira prison, faked his injuries from an alleged struggle with an inmate. Perry was then able to obtain Workman\u2019s Comp benefits as he was out on disability and not retirement. The charges in Broome County related to those Work Comp benefits he received after his alleged injury, an injury his coworkers maintain did not happen. He is facing similar charges in Steuben County, N.Y. where the State Pension Fund is located. Perry also received his pension at a higher rate because he filed for disability, not retirement. Those charges, as well as a Felony assault charge he is facing from a fight with an inmate at the Steuben County jail, are still pending.\nApparently. the Broome County ADA Sandra Cardone failed to put ALL the witnesses on the stand that actually witnessed the altercation, excluding the Watch Commander, who heard Perry say that he\" hoped the fight wasn't over yet\", and another, CO who heard Perry say \" See ya guys, that's my ticket outta here. I won't be back\" when the call, a Red Dot\" came over the radio. Only certain CO's, picked at the beginning of the shifts, are to respond to that particular call; they are the ones assigned to monitor and respond to any altercation.\nDavid Perry was not one of those COs. And it is still unclear why he picked that time to respond; he had to travel from his position in the jail, a long way to where the fight took place.\nIt makes one wonder if he staged the whole incident as he seemed to know that he would never step foot in Elmira prison again. He claimed his injury was a result of that fight with the inmate, even though several COs who were in the cell and present at the time told the Grand Jury that Perry never actually had contact with the inmate.\nSo why didn't the ADA use the eyes-on testimony of the people who were there? Perhaps if she had, the testimony would have been more compelling and Perry would not be skating his way out of Felony charges.One would argue that she could have made for a stronger case. The judges in that part N.Y. seem especially lenient as well; last year Judge Martin Smith, knowing that Perry was a suspect in a probable homicide, allowed Perry to go to Hawaii for a month, where Perry then married Melissa Walker, taking her last name. Kelly went missing in March and by late July was married to someone he had met on Craig's List.\nMeanwhile, Perry sits in the Steuben County jail. It is widely suspected that Perry, who lived in Florida with Kelly Rothwell, killed her on March 12, 2011 when she went home to break up with him. He is a suspect in her case but has yet to be charged by the Pinellas County Sheriff's Department. And no one knows why...\nIt's been almost 17 months since Kelly Rothwell's disappearance.\nMeanwhile, Kelly Rothwell is STILL MISSING....\nPosted by Leigh Clifton at Thursday, July 26, 2012\nSo why hasn't he been charged? Just all \"too convenient\" also that he was confident he would never be back in prison. Thank you for the story and please keep the community updated.\nOMG is all I can say.. So they have all the pictures of him doing is crazy exercises and can see that he works out. So someone who was hurt so bad that they needed to get disability cause he could not work isn't good enough?? What the hell is this world coming too?? This man needs to pay all that money back and spend alot of time in jail. So now he probably will get time severed, won't have to pay a dime back, they will give him his house back, his vehicles, motorcycle, etc., and still be able to collect on all his money.. UNREAL!!! O and the best part is Kelly is still missing. This jerk needs to be beat until he tells the truth about everything. I think the should have put him in a cell by himself with no communication with anyone all this time. Maybe he will realize what it is like not to have someone you love missing!!!\nLet's pray to god this other judge doesn't let him get off on these other charges. These people have never seen him with his hands around my neck and his finger prints there for a week or so. If they did they would have charged him. I'm not sure if they took pictures of when he did that to me. This man is evil and very dangerous he should never I mean never see the light of day. I pray to god the attorney in Corning does his job and keeps him behind bars for my sake and other women's sake. I cannot express the hell I go through everyday worrying he will get back out and hunt me down his brothers are just as evil.\nCharges Reduced in David Perry's Broome County F...",

        "raw_content": "Besides Curtains, I bought some scalped tickets on the street to the musical production of Gypsy starring Broadway diva Patti LuPone famous from her Tony winning performance in Evita and her special guest appearance on Will & Grace. My seat, however, was literally the last seat in the house on the second balcony, I had to lean forward to see everything and for the second act I sat on the top of my seat.\nSet during the vaudeville era, Gypsy is about the ultimate pushy stage mom, Rose, traveling the country with her two daughters, June and Louise, and their manager, Herbie. While June and Louise wish their mother would settle down and marry , Rose continues to pursue dreams of stardom for her girls...and for the dreams she never got to pursue. When June deserts the act, Rose turns her attention to the shy Louise, whom she hopes to fashion into a star. When the act is booked into a burlesque house by mistake, Louise is forced on the stage to strip and dancer Gypsy Rose Lee is born. Famous songs include \"Let Me Entertain You,\" and \"Everything's Turning Up Roses.\" The songs are catchy and I've been singing \"So let me entertain you, let me make you smile, And we'll have a real good time...\" since I left the theater. One year shy of its 50th anniversary, I think Gypsy is more for female audiences though.\nI had always regretted not seeing Gypsy back when Bernadette Peters was in the starring role of Mama Rose, which is considered one of the greatest and most difficult roles for a musical theater actress. As a result, I couldn't help picturing throughout the show how Peters would do each scene. However, that's not to say LuPone wasn't good as the leading lady, she just wasn't as cute, lol. The famous final scene where she sings \"Rose's Turn\" she more than wowed me with her strong and emotional singing. In fact, I got teary. For a video of this scene check out the clip on YouTube.\nMeghan May 3, 2008 at 10:25 AM\nSounds amazing. There's such magic in live theatre :)\nAngie hearts May 3, 2008 at 4:16 PM\nThanks for the clip... I wish I can go back and NY soon. Really miss it\nthedramagirl May 5, 2008 at 9:16 AM\nYes. I regret it too. But I also wish I could see Patti LuPone's version...\nAlmighty Cleanse May 10, 2008 at 8:18 PM\nPatti LuPone's version is great!",

        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s Private Revelation from around the world as well as the very events in the world and the Church, the moral depravity and relativism in much of humanity, and the efforts to eradicate God not only from the public square but of human thought entirely, all confirm the fact that Satan and his demons are not only very active and powerful, but also very successful. Consider how Our Lord helped St. Faustina Kowalska deal with these demons:\nAlso prayerfully consider reading some of the additional links to the Angels and Dragons articles at the end of the above article!!!\nSeptember 7 through the 28th\nFeast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary\u2014September 8\nThis day the Church celebrates the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary, immaculately conceived nine months earlier, and now to assume her unique role in salvation history. Please join us in this 9-day Novena, Sept. 8-16, honoring our Mother and Queen as we pray in celebration and thanksgiving for the gift of life - her life, her Son\u2019s Life, our lives & eternal life:\nNovena of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary...\nThe Efficacious Novena of the Three Hail Mary\u2019s...\nMary as \u201cblessed among women\u201d: by Pope John Paul II\nPrayer for all the Innocent Children of the World\nGeneral Audience, September 8, 2004...\nWhat has Our Lord in His Lessons said on His Mother's birthday?\n\u201c\u2026My Peace is your freedom! My Peace allows you to live in this world until you see Me face to face. I promise you, child, by an oath of our intimacy, that all who desire Me, trust in Me and completely focus on Me, shall be guaranteed everlasting life for all eternity with Me, My Father, My Mother, My Joseph and all My Angels, Saints and Prophets\u2026. I promise that whoever believes in My Mother, trusts in her words and lives them shall live in Me and receive My Mercy and life everlasting\u2026.\u201d (JOM, Vol I, #82, 09-08-89, More on Peace)\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on her joy-filled birthday feast?\n\u201c\u2026I am the Immaculate Conception, the spouse of the Holy Spirit. Your Jesus is of my flesh and blood, and I cherish the wonder of life. My Son lived this gift of Life from God to its fullest, and he desires all to live life with all its wonders, in Him\u2026. Give yourself to God in this life on earth\u2026. Do not wait until the moment of need arises or you will be too exhausted from the world\u2019s yoke to carry the yoke of God\u2026. Receive Holy Eucharist so Jesus will find great Joy in dwelling in you\u2026. Profit by the remedy offered in Jesus as the \u2018Bread of Life\u2019\u2026. Surrender to Love and strive to live in His Love to its fullest, living Life, living Love\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Public 09-08-94)\n\u201cIf you continue to pray with a humble heart, your name is chosen to be among all the saints where a seat in His Kingdom has been reserved for you. So seek only God; and give Him glory, for He loves you. And if you desire to give me a gift, the greatest gift you can give to me is to live in humility and do all your works in Love, for Love, and through Love - that being my Son\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-07-08)\n\u201c\u2026Whenever you celebrate your birth, you know I always celebrate you; and I give God thanks for the gift of you; and I know how much you desire to celebrate me in thanksgiving to God for the gift of my life. I thank you for this, especially now in a world where life is not celebrated or cherished to its fullest, and in life where parents separate and divide and children are enticed by alcohol and drugs of all different kinds, and with technology and the sweet temptations of materialism. Their growth on a sound foundation is rare. There would never even be that trouble if the parents truly loved one another, because then the children would be infused with their love and grace.\n\u201cBut my parents loved one another; and because of them, I was able to say \u201cyes I still experienced every emotion, and I could have indeed, if I so desired, said \u201cno.\u201d But my fiat was enveloped within the Love of God, because I desired holiness.\u201d Even being born with an Immaculate Heart, I still had a free will to say \u201cyes.\u201d; and your fiat can also be as mine\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-07-10)\nWords of God the Father - September 8, 2006\nTwelve years ago today, September 8, 2006, on the Feast of the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary, God the Father reminds humanity of the fragility of its security in the face of its sinfulness and the prophesied tribulations\u201d\n\u201c\u2026There are so many of you who pray and who are committed;\u2026\nMy Son warned you that a time was coming when you would see wars and famines and earthquakes and fires and weather changes, but that these would not mark the end of the world. This time would be only the beginning, the labor pains of a new birth. He wanted you not to see this as an end to the world\u2026.\nif you are so sure that you are safe, perhaps you should look closer at your own sin, and then you may gain the fear of God\u2026.\nYou think that you are blanketed from all harm, then perhaps you had best look to see how in a moment's notice your life could be stripped from you\u2026.\nFor if all your preparations are stripped from you, then what do you have left, but nothing? For it is only within your heart that you will find what shall sustain you---that being the true and glorious wonder of\nHow secure you can be at one moment; and then have your \"freedom\"--- God!which you call it---be stripped from you, or at least threatened\u2026.\nThat awesome day will come when you will understand them fully, not only the depth and the breadth of My Words, but also of your life.\nGTF, September 8, 2006\u2026\n23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time\u2014September 9, 2018 In today\u2019s Gospel from St. Mark on this 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, we hear the followers of Jesus who had witnessed His words and miracles say:\nHe does all things well because of His Holiness. So too we should be able to expect a thirst for that holiness in all of God\u2019s chosen and consecrated ones as well as all who identify themselves as \u201cChristian.\u201d Perhaps this is a good time to ponder what God the Father in His Words to the world, Our Lord Jesus Christ in His Lessons and Our Lady of Emmitsburg in her Messages have shared with us about the \u201cHoliness of Jesus:\u201d\nCult of Holiness, Part 2, The Holiness of Jesus\nFeast of St. Peter Claver - September 9\nSpanish Jesuit & Patron of the Black Slaves, especially in Colombia\nPrayer to Saint Peter Claver\nDear Saint of our modern times, you were permeated with compassion for the oppressed, for human beings sold as slaves and treated as expendable beasts. While alleviating their natural ills, you also took away their spiritual ills, and taught them the surpassing knowledge of Christ. Inspire many of our contemporaries to become self-sacrificing missionaries like you. Amen.\nWhat did Our Lord in His Lessons ask on this feast of St. Peter Claver?\n\u201c\u2026Why do I seek those who are little children in simpleness and yet of little influence? Because they listen and are totally dependent on Me. In their dependency stems a solid mature spiritual character, one different and unique from each other and all people\u2026.\u201d (JOM, Vol V, #16, 09-09-95, Little Children of Hope)\nLITTLE CHILDREN OF HOPE\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on the feast of St. Peter Claver?\n\u201cLittle ones, as the time approaches for both a tremendous change and great victory for my Most Immaculate Heart, I wish you to be prepared in a most astounding way; prepared so that you will be able to be the mouthpieces of my Son, and so that you will also be able to emanate from your spirits the humility and the purity of my Most Immaculate Heart\u2026. To be humble, you must be \u2018little.\u2019 You must remove the \u2018self.\u2019 ...God is at the center of this plan, and because God loves His Church, which is named \u2018Mother Church\u2019 and where my Immaculate Heart dwells, He will reveal the Truth. The Truth must be made known, and all shall be prepared to confront error with humility but with authority, seeking only justice\u2026. You must be able to sway like the branches in the wind. You must move with the current as the waves go in and out. If you fight it, you will be drawn out to sea and will drown. You must be able to be flexible\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-09-03)\nThe Seven Sorrows of Mary - September 9-15\nJoin us each of the next 7 days as we ponder the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary through the hearts of His saints in anticipation of the Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows on September 15:\nThe Promises of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary...\n\u201c...But the Lord raises up their foes against them\nand stirs up their enemies to action\u2026.\nFor all this, his wrath is not turned back,\nand his hand is still outstretched!\nThe people do not turn to him who struck them,\nnor seek the Lord of Hosts.\nSo the Lord severs from Israel head and tail,\npalm branch and reed in one day\u2026.\u201d\n(Is 9:10-13)\nOn September 11, 2001, the United States experienced one of the worst tragedies in its history, with the terrorist bombing of the World Trade Centers in New York City. Our Lady of Emmitsburg did not speak specifically of this event in any recorded message until 4 years later when Gianna and her husband, Michael, were on retreat in Assisi, Italy, on September 11, 2005, on which day there was occurring in Assisi a Peace Rally:\n\u201cI love you and I bless you with all your intentions on this great day, a day of Peace, not only here, but also on this day that marks the day of Peace in your own country; for those who die with Christ, live with Christ.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-11-05)\nNow again, 17 years later we again approach this dreadful day in the history of the United States and the world. The dangers were again tragically brought to our attention, on September 11, 2012, when lives were again lost and scandals uncovered through the terrorist attack on the US embassy in Benghazi, Libya. What can we again expect this year? And how do we reconcile this day, September 11, past, present and future, with God\u2019s Plan and His attempt at all costs to bring all souls back home to Himself to live a life of eternal Peace?\nSeptember 11, 2001: A day that changed the world!\nOur Lord Himself cast some light on what has been for many a tragedy very difficult to understand, the bombing of the World Trade Center and the suffering and death that followed. Thus, we must always be ready, for we know not the hour:\n\u201cI in My innocence carried sorrow in My Heart for all the world. The wickedness of the world stood before Me and condemned Me. Yet, the world thought it was I who stood in sentence before them. My acceptance of their sentence was so that they would not die. I accepted the sentence of death for them, for all people, that the body might die by the sword but the soul could live forever for all those who believed in Love. \u2026Those who believe in My salvation through My victory in death will joyously celebrate and be with their gentle God. The wicked and righteous shall be slain by their very own sword, but the innocent and meek of heart shall live for all eternity.\u201d (JOM, Vol V, #18, 09-11-95, My Little Children, My Saints)\nMY LITTLE CHILDREN, MY SAINTS\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg also adds her perspective on each of our lives here on earth in the backdrop of loss of human life on September 11, 2001:\n\u201cIf there is anything for you to remember this night, remember that your possessions mean nothing; your love means everything! You can gain everything in the world, and you can think that everyone will remember you; but life goes on. Even if history documents who you are and what you have done, it means nothing; because the Kingdom of Heaven is different. There is no notoriety there, and there is no place of greatness above someone else. You do not gain a seat next to the Bridegroom and the Bride because of who you are. All that matters is Love! What you do and how you do your works of love are all that matters\u2026. So if you are going by your own agenda and criteria\u2026you need to look at the Life of the humble Jesus, my Son, a downcast, spit upon, unwanted, a heretic, deemed diabolical in nature and crucified. Yes, this most pure Love carried all your sins.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-11-07)\nFeast of the Holy Name of Mary - September 12\nLitany of the Holy Name of Mary...\nThe Most Holy Name of Mary - an essay...\nWhat has Our Lord said on this feast of Mary's Holy Name?\n\u201c\u2026The less you realize you know, the more you gain from My Heavenly Father; for in your humility you allow Him to grace you with the knowledge of His Love\u2026. My Father has so much to give\u2026. Yet few seek Him and few desire to have a truly personal relationship with Him because they keep their distance from Me. There is nothing that God will not forgive in His merciful Love when a repentant heart asks for His Mercy and forgives himself\u2026.\u201d (JOM, Vol V, #53, 09-12-95, The Path to My Father)\nTHE PATH TO MY FATHER\nSep 12, 1995...\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on this feast of her Holy Name?\n\u201cPonder my words, \u2018My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, for He has looked with favor on His lowly servant.' The Divine favor is His grace. God desires to fill you, little children, with His grace\u2026. Allow His grace to fill your soul as water fills an ocean\u2026. Do not allow His grace to fall on deaf ears through a lack of cooperation\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Public 09-12-96)\n\u201cThere are many children in the world who desire to come here to pray. Because they are both confused or frightened, and are not welcome, they seek other places for their nourishment and spiritual growth. But this is my Center, and all are invited. All should be welcome. Those who have caused harm should now be silenced\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Private 12-12-03)\nFeast of St. John Chrysostom - September 13\n5th century Bishop and Doctor of the Church in Antioch\n\u201cThe potency of prayer has subdued the strength of fire; it has bridled the rage of lions, hushed anarchy to rest, extinguished wars, appeased the elements, expelled demons, burst the chains of death, expanded the gates of heaven, assuaged diseases, repelled frauds, rescued cities from destruction, stayed the sun in its course, and arrested the progress of the thunderbolt.\u201d (St. John Chrysostum, 344-407 AD)\nWhat has Our Lord said on St. John Chrysostom's feast?\n\u201c\u2026In suffering is gained patience. If you are ostracized, it does not mean you are bearing bad fruit. Remember the false prophets were highly praised by many people. No, when you are scorned and troubled, mocked, ridiculed and slandered, the fruit you bear is fermenting from bitterness to savoring sweetness. Therefore, be at peace when God allows you to be chastised and pressed through the mill of sweet graces\u2026. Avoid evil with silence and love. Do not partake in evil by fighting back\u2026.\u201d (JOM, Vol V, #20, 09-13-95, The Gifts of prudence and discernment)\nTHE GIFTS OF PRUDENCE AND DISCERNMENT\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on this feast of St. John Chrysostum?\n\u201c\u2026You cannot persuade or change the mind of someone who wants to do what they want to do\u2026. I desire all of you, my children, to know that you must be more vigilant and prudent today than ever before. If you think you have connections all over the world, perhaps you had better think that they are limited and that you have none. It is better to go forward knowing that you have nothing, than to go forward thinking that you have it all. What a tremendous downfall it will be for those who feel so secure and so padded in love and affection when they find out that their \u2018love\u2019 was self-serving instead of Divine\u2026.\u201d (OLOE Public 09-13-06)\n\"I do not know whether anyone\nhas ever succeeded in not enjoying praise.\nAnd, if he enjoys it, he naturally wants to receive it.\nAnd if he wants to receive it,\nhe cannot help but being distraught at losing it.\nThose who are in love with applause have their spirits starved,\nnot only when they are blamed off-hand,\nbut even when they fail to be constantly praised.\"\n(St. John Chrysostom, 344-407)",

        "raw_content": "#38030 - 04/23/10 07:30 AM Re: Prove it [Re: TheInsane]\nI just read through Mindmasters and MawhrinSkels posts and I just wanted to add that I greatly appreciate what both of you wrote. Both posts make me think and that is indeed a good grade\nI do think the most important thing about anything is that it doesn\u2019t become stagnant and this was always my main critique of LaVeyan Satanism. I myself have my foundation in that thought but I see it as if I have grown out of the label LaVeyan a long time ago because I did branch out and I did go to the roots and even to a whole different world.\nI have LaVey to thank for opening the gates but to be honest today I value Nietzsche and Heraclitus a lot more than LaVey. However without LaVey I might not have discovered either of the two.\nI also branched out and am very influenced by certain ideas in tantra which, as we all should know, is where the left hand path originates from. I take influence both from the Buddhist branch and the Hindu one. The myths and practices around Kali in particular. And I also appreciate the Tao te Ching as I find that it in a lot of way correspond to Heraclitus.\nWhat I want to say by this is that even though I may be atheistic in my view on life I do not hesitate to look into theistic systems (like the Hindu one) and realize that I can still learn a lot from them. Sure, to me their myths are only symbolic representations but to me it can help visualize the world and its possible foundations in quite a beautiful way.\nShe is naked and dark like a threatening rain cloud. She is dark, for she who is herself beyond mind and speech, reduces all things into that worldly \"nothingness\" which as the Void of all which we now know, is at the same time the All (purna) which is Light and Peace. . . . She stands upon the white corpse-like body of Shiva. He is white because He is illuminating transcendental aspect of Consciousness. He is inert because he is the changeless aspect of the Supreme, and she apparently changing aspect of the same. In truth, she and he are one and the same, being twin aspects of the One who is changelessness in, and exists as, change.\nAnd while some people tend to believe the above quote to be literary true, a male and a female divine being of consciousness making up what we call the world, I see it as a beautiful poetic way of explaining that which I, and Heraclitus, find to be the base of the universe. That is that the only thing that is unchanging is change itself.\n#38032 - 04/23/10 08:34 AM Re: Prove it [Re: Mindmaster]\nMany Satanists read the TSB and like what they see, and then they refuse to do any leg work because \"all of these things don't exist\" or whatever. It is the standard cop-out! Exploring spiritual paths would make you un-Satanic or other such nonsense. I'm declaring war on you types as you are putrid wastes of humanity that would do much better as fertilizer than a Satanist. You are as weak as the Christians, but instead of having an open fear of spiritual awakening you have a backward-talking fear of the irrational. The defense to the positions they have is \"shields up\", thus neither know anything at all.\nTell me about your \"awakening\"...\n\"Spiritual enlightenment\" is nothing more than some illusionairy feeling of this strange concept of \"good\"/\"bad\". What you call spiritual is what I call self-delusion, emotional reactions and exgageration. Spirituality (and likes) is but a term invented by man to give trivial actions and experiences this \"catchy\" tone.\nReading a book like the TSB is not \"spiritual enlightment\", it is plain fucking insight and recognition. Nothing more and nothing less. Even so, for every term starting with \"spiritual ...\" I can come up with a more accurate word which is less catchy but cuts the cheese much more smoothly.\nPerhaps, you then could answer the question of why you live in the self-denial typically associated with Christians? Denial of the forces present within your own mind and that you have nothing in common with them nor derive no pleasure in that relationship! Verily, you mock it like a disappointed school-girl and seem disappointed that the boogie man didn't decide to show up at your house, but did visit your friends a night since passed!\nWhy is it always considered that atheistic visions, or visions that leave no place for \"spooky\" forces, contain self-denial? I say: know what you practice and practice what you know. Keep boiling in the self-delusion.\nRe: Mindmaster\nSurely, this view is unpopular with the types that frequent this forum... that there could be something not explained. Realize that all ideals, views, and beliefs are an ongoing process of evolution which requires the seeker to seek. Stasis is death in all things! LaVey's ideas were very good for his time, but are they comprehensive enough to explain the experiences we are having now? Are they to be regarded is a mere stepping stone on the journey? Only time will tell, but we have to keep moving forward or fall to the side as inferiority slips into the core of the philosophy.\nArguments for theism typically boil down to \"well, I can FEEL the presence of God,\" or \"Many smart people believe in God, so there.\" Correct me if I've over-generalized but it seems to be a case of the latter.\nTheism is not evolution. It is not a step forward into brave new metaphysical territory. It's a step backwards; an old, tired superstition that assumes too much and shows too little.\nMany Satanists read the TSB and like what they see, and then they refuse to do any leg work because \"all of these things don't exist\" or whatever. It is the standard cop-out! Exploring spiritual paths would make you un-Satanic or other such nonsense.\nI call shenanigans on this one. Yes, some people who call themselves Satanists are lazy goodfornothings, but I think it was Nemesis that said a while ago that Satanism is not simply getting a blowjob and being able to enjoy it. Satanism, and the whole of the LHP for that matter, is a process of growth and self-mastery.\nMawhrinSkel wrote of the \"higher self\" in relation to Nietzsche's idea of the Will to Power. I find myself in total agreement. You can call this, as I stated before, the Holy Guardian Angel, the inner daimonos, or what have you. It is what it is. This is akin to the maxim \"Whether magic exists or not, it works.\"\nThe question is ultimately not about whether the voices and floods of ideas in your head comes from your own being or from some external deity. It's about whether or not they help you grow and develop as an individual in the process of apotheosis. However, most of us are skeptical, so we apply Occam's Razor in that the simplest explanation is usually the best-- ie, there is no supernatural, astral plane, telepathy, etc. Until there is some pressing need to reconsider, we will continue in our skepticism. This does not interfere with our Becoming, and in fact encourages it because it ensures we do not find ourselves holding any absurd beliefs simply out of \"faith\" like so many others do, and therefore falling into a self-destructive rut of stagnancy.\nWe are not \"afraid\" of some \"force\". We recognize this force; we call it Satan. However, we don't jump the gun and give it untenable supernatural attributes.\nNeither are we afraid to explore other systems, or at least I'm not, as evidenced by my seemingly endless binge of religious and occult study, in addition to a rather nasty addiction to Ceremonial Magic.\nI think, overall, you're making a false dichotomy. Perhaps if you could explain your beliefs or ideas a bit clearer we could address the issue more concisely.\n#38035 - 04/23/10 10:05 AM Re: Prove it [Re: Dimitri]\nAn interesting thread in this whole discussion is the linguistic one. I don\u2019t doubt that the feeling people assert to words like \"awakening\" or \"spiritual experience\" is a fraud or is non-existent. I\u2019m sure the feeling is there but the words we use to describe it differ depending on our worldview.\nWhat for me may be called a rational realization may be what another person calls spiritual awakening even though the feeling causing us to put it into words is the same in both of us.\nI have had a few experiences, most often when surrounded by wilderness, when I suddenly feel how things are connected. I guess this isn\u2019t as much a rational understanding as it is an emotional one. I however do deny the existence of gods and spirits and I wouldn\u2019t be comfortable calling this sensation I felt by the name divine. I do however think some people would indeed, and without hesitation, call the very same feeling by a divine name. I think it reflects the worldview one has before one experiences the feeling. Some Satanists might call it magical instead since magic is more accepted in satanic circles.\nAnyway, these were some short reflections. Maybe a little bit off topic but I felt it still contributed to what was being discussed.\n#38038 - 04/23/10 05:48 PM Re: Prove it [Re: TheInsane]\nI have been following this thread,and I was hoping you could clairify your position.\nYou deny the existence of gods and spirits.\nYou feel an emotional connectedness to everything in the wilderness on occasion.\nYou believe there is no such thing as free will, thus everything is preordained.\nUnfortunately there isn't a more accurate term than spiritual for what I was writing about, and awakening is simply a shift in consciousness to a large degree and nothing really more. One could consider fully embracing Satanism to be one type of awakening, and there are many others. All of these situations have aspects that effect your \"spiritual\" proclivity whether that involves an acceptance of supernatural concepts or the denial that they in fact exist and that you will have nothing to do with them. It's basically impossible to convince anyone of anything if they won't hear it! Maybe if you have enough bullets, anyway.\nIf anything I was attempting to encourage some thought and exploration. That maybe very possibly there is more to the left hand path than many believe. I could prattle on about my personal experiences, but without my personal frame of reference they have very little meaning. Most of the events would seem very insignificant in total, but from a bird's eye view are like having a big arrow painted on the map of your life. Looking at my map won't help anyone else because I'm not standing where they are. Each individual has their own challenges in life, and their own set of limitations imposed by their upbringing and other factors. I would just be stabbing in the dark attempting to tell you how to reach that destination, so I'll spare you the bullshit. I just consider myself a student of life, so don't take any of that for some posturing on my part. I don't think I am any better or worse than anyone else.\nInterestingly enough, \"spooky forces\" is not what I was eluding to. More that these forces are already present to a degree in ones own mind, and that is all the proof that is required. Its far more convincing that trying to prove the presence of some external idea that you may not currently be able to perceive. My only stretch of logic in this idea is that you must be able to rationalize something that exists in your own consciousness can exist outside of your own. To some existent that is as simple as finding another person that shares your feelings on a subject.\nModern psychology (yay science!) doesn't even deny the existence of these archetypes outside of an individual. In fact, if anything the concept of an archetype is just symbolic recognition of something that already exists. Of course, Carl Jung and Plato are known for their heavily deluded writing as classically they are the proponents of this idea! :P But, the fact that two or more people can experience or share this symbol of Satan means that it exists independently of them. Is it a walking talking Devil? Well.. why does it have to be? Does a creature composed of collective consciousness have a will? That's a question I can't really answer... My experiences to some degree bear out that such things do not exist and think as we do... At least for the purposes of ritual magic it is easier to assume they are since the human social machinery deals better with this conception. Of course you can start debating with me the existence of consciousness, but then we get are just getting silly. Sometimes I feel as though the \"divine spark\" I mentioned was simply the facility of that all the other animals on this rock seem to lack. We can override our biological programming if we need to, and other creatures simply can't. But, it's just an idea... I still haven't researched that to my satisfaction.\nSpirituality however is simply the exploration of consciousness and not something to fear. Its a realm where you can't bring a pack full of microscopes and rulers. You have to do your own work to understand your own machinery and the only \"stretch\" is that the ancients believed that by understanding your microcosm that the macrocosm would unfold to you. The great thing about being a Satanist is you are able to explore without reservation, and that allows you to partake in anything that works in your journey. You can also just decide you're happy wherever you may be at the time the onerous being solely upon the individual.\nA Satanic path doesn't necessarily conflict with a spiritual path as much as you would think. In my own case it has given me perspective and an even keel. It's good to have a whetstone to sharpen your ideas against and Satanism is a good bullshit detector on the whole. I incorporate a lot of classical thought and practice into my composite philosophy, but I make no assumption that will do for everyone. My practices are based on the assumption that: \"I do not know everything, and things possibly exist outside of my perception\" and that will not work for someone that believes: \"I do know everything, and nothing exists outside of my understanding\"\nThat's not a blind faith concept, but rather a realization of possibility. For some people that possibility can be painful, and I understand.\nEdited by Mindmaster (04/23/10 08:13 PM)\n#38044 - 04/23/10 09:40 PM Re: Prove it [Re: Mindmaster]\nOriginally Posted By: Mindmaster\nSo do you believe in some sort of idea of dark thought yourself that decides that you aren't entirely an Atheist only? Welp, you just found your Devil. Game over. Sure, I can explain.\nI sure hope you can explain because so far you aren't making any sense.\nThe philosophers of the past from the times of Pythagoras to the Chaldeans, and the Cabalists all had the belief that \"God\" or the divine existed and man was created in its image, thus by logical extension \"man\" was accurately a microcosmic God containing of a divine spark. Thus, and contained within a man thus has a logical correspondence somewhere else in the universal pea soup which reflected the divine aspect of this particular form or archetype. As above, so below; so below, as above. Man, logically in conventional mysticism was a \"mini-God\" or self-contained universe of consciousness. We seem to function accordingly as well don't we? That which exists within us exists without us by this analogy. I guess when you don't have so many TV's and video games you spend your life trying to figure out things. :P\nIt doesn't seem like you have figured much out at all. Sure, people have believed all sorts of crazy things. It is important to remember that beliefs can be false, that is to say, wrong.\nLaVey obviously drew from the sources of classical hermetic thought in his own books. It would be relatively silly to believe he didn't think anything of it when he gleened the materials in a somewhat altered form and penned them into The Satanic Bible. One doesn't trouble themselves with incorporating the ideas for which they don't believe in. But, LaVey was a pretty smart guy and probably realized the average waste of humanity on this rock doesn't care about their spiritual advancement. So he probably decided there was more gold to be had in Satanic tourism, and I'd tend to agree. What'd he personally believe? Well, do your homework and do the math... I doubt he'd bother to read Aleister Crowley, John Dee, or any of the other classical references if he thought it was 100% hogwash. It's truly hard to read through these types of things when you intellectually reject them completely as had been the case in my own youth.\nLaVey incorporated the ideas of a lot of people when he wrote TSB. However, you stating this obvious fact does nothing in the way of proving the existence of Satan (or indeed any other super natural entity) - as was the purpose of this thread. I am not concerned with what LaVey believed or didn't believe; such a discussion has been done to death. Similarly, I am not concerned with what anyone else believes because, as I have already stated, beliefs can be wrong. What I am interested in the proof for validity of these beliefs.\nTo understand Crowley in particular you need a good backing in esoterica to understand anything the man writes. You need a comprehensive knowledge of correspondences just to make heads or tails of most of it. Conversely, TSB enochian keys are just adapted from Crowley's _Equinox_ publishing with every god word replaced with \"Satan\" or other minor alterations. Surely, one goes through all of this trouble for no apparent reason. :P I think LaVey had a very real perception of the forces that be, but it doesn't sell as many books and memberships. The Church of Satan probably neutered itself and became an entirely secular institution for this reason alone. It's far easier to get money from rich folks when you're just \"playing\" with the devil verses doing the devils work.\nAgain, I am not concerned with what people believe but why. And the only justification I can/will accept is one that provides undeniable proof. If you can not do that then you are really just wasting time.\nAll that being said, I probably would share your views if I didn't understand that a vehement disbelief of any concept is putting you in the same muddy water as those who have faith without reason. Your eyes are tightly closed in either case and do not aid any spiritual development or understanding. Classically, \"The Devil\" is in the details; If you seek self-gratification over self-denial, your will over \"gods will\", and seek to break free of conventions then you are obviously proving this existence of this force through your own action regardless of your beliefs. You can deny that those things exist but that doesn't change the obvious manifestation in your consciousness and by extension very real presence.\nThis \"vehement disbelief\" most certainly does not put me in the same boat as Christians when I can logically and rationally back up my reasons for my disbelief. My lack of belief is not faith based and therefore makes me pretty much diametrically opposed to the Christian mindset.\nSelf-denial? I am not practicing any form of self-denial. What I am practicing is a healthy skepticism of things that I can see no good reason for believing in. My mind is indeed open, just not so open that I run the risk of having my brain fall out.\nNeedless to say, I can't believe in the Satan someone else creates for me nor can you! But, I do believe one can reach inside to increase that power infinitely and perhaps experience it directly by extension which tends to be an accurate realization in relation to my own meanderings. This view is nothing new, and has been held by traditional mystics since the time of the ancient Egyptians and possibly before. I perhaps would view similarly to you if \"Modern Satanism\" could possibly be a large enough container for my experiences, but I have found it lacking in many ways. It perhaps accurately describes a traveler starting on a journey in earnest, but it is not very far along the left hand path that one realizes the insufficiencies. Nonetheless, it's very much a part of my core and a love the idealism of it validates it's personal relevance to me. It's a part of me, but I've become much more.\nArguments from personal i.e. subjective experiences do not amount to a rational basis for belief in anything no matter how much you wish it were so. Nor does the longevity of a belief make it anymore true - no matter how far back you can trace the origins of that belief.\nWar? I find it funny that you try to compare me to a Christian yet you are the one who wants to declare war on anyone who doesn't think like you. But if it is war you want, then, well, bring it on I guess. I'm always up for a good a fight.\nI apologize for the length of this thanks for being patient. :P\nI can't speak for everyone who uses this forum but I personally do not make the assumption that the writings of LaVey explain everything. I accept that our understanding of the world and our place in it is constantly changing and I do not doubt the possibility of proof of things that I do not believe in surfacing. This possibility, however, is not enough reason to believe. It for that exact reason that I made this thread in the first place: to challenge people to prove it. Well, that and I was bored.\nSorry, but you have failed. If you wish to try again please come a little more well prepared.\nIf anything I was attempting to encourage some thought and exploration. That maybe very possibly there is more to the left hand path than many believe. I could prattle on about my personal experiences, but without my personal frame of reference they have very little meaning. Most of the events would seem very insignificant in total, but from a bird's eye view are like having a big arrow painted on the map of your life. Looking at my map won't help anyone else because I'm not standing where they are. Each individual has their own challenges in life, and their own set of limitations imposed by their upbringing and other factors.\nEver heard about \"specie-interaction\"? You can have a much more effect on someone's life than you'll probably know. Even so, you might have some knowledge to share with people which is derived from your personal experiences. You are but a human, and every human will face a few events during his life. Those who have endured them can share the knowledge on \"how to handle it\". Taking a look at your map can be gratefull, on the sole condition you have information at hand which is valuable.\nI sense you belief in \"spooke forces\" and will continue to do so unless you get more accurate and start naming things. There is no \"force\" which is unnamed. Electromagnetism is a force, gravitation is a force,...\nEverything has a name, I would like to hear that specific name. Talking about forces is vague and leaves room for bullshit and opportunities for quacks to mess with the mind.\nSpirituality however is simply the exploration of consciousness and not something to fear. Its a realm where you can't bring a pack full of microscopes and rulers. You have to do your own work to understand your own machinery and the only \"stretch\" is that the ancients believed that by understanding your microcosm that the macrocosm would unfold to you.\nThe definition you give for spirituality is what I call studying and exploration of thought patterns. The only thing I need is a pen and some paper.\nBTW: the \"ancients\" also told a lot of bullshit. But since you think like most humans, only those shots who were a bit right are remembered and the rest is being thrown away with the trash.\nYou may quote Plato and others, but what you \"learn\" now is but a condensed version. Some of his ideas clearly showed the lack of knowledge from his time. Some of his ideas were even retarded and at the same level of information the JoS now distributes.\nBut we like to look at the good things only, they are more important. The critics are easily tossed aside, the negative brain-farts are much more easily forgotten.\nThe reason to deny gods and thus be atheistic is quite clear and something I don\u2019t have to explain in deep \u2013 at least not on this forum. I don\u2019t feel a need for such a thing and I haven\u2019t come across any kind of objective or subjective proof that they exist.\nOn the free will debate I never actually argued for my position. I was trying to get Doomsage to realize that his belief in free will is just that belief and/or faith since scientifically it isn\u2019t proven to exist. In fact science tends to disprove it.\nI myself am not sure what position I hold in regards to will. Its one of those things whose theory I just haven\u2019t been able to satisfy to myself. What I do know is that I do not regard anything as having a truly free will. However I do not believe that the universe, at large at least, is predetermined either. Quantum physics speaks against it for one and my basic view on the world does in part speak against it.\nI have sometimes visualized will as a surfer riding on a wave. He can\u2019t get off the wave but he can somewhat control what he is doing while on the wave. But as I said I don\u2019t have a grand theory in regards to will.\nOn the feeling I have experienced in regards to how everything is connected in nature it is by no means meant as a grand theory of the whole. It\u2019s just a flash of feelings that one can experience a deeper sense of every things place in nature and how it is all interconnected. I know athletes have similar experiences at times when they see things in slow motion and feels what move to do next.\nHope my answers are satisfying to you. If not feel free to ask again.\nUNDENIABLE PROOF OF THE SUPERNATURAL AND PARANORMAL:\nToday my computer was crashing repeatedly and would not function correctly. After hours of troubleshooting, I realized what the problem was-- my OS was possessed by malicious extradimensional entities! So I grabbed a ritual dagger and the Lemegeton off my bookshelf, and began reciting a potent and powerful exorcism, adjuring the foul demon that plagued my hard drive, and commanding it to begone henceforth in the mighty and holy names of ADONAY ELOHIM et JEHOVA.\nPointing the dagger intimidatingly at the monitor and holding the book before me, I belligerently reminded the wicked spirit of its sinfulness and fall from grace, promising that if it did not stop crashing my PC, immediately and without delay, by the power of the Father, Sonne, and Holie Ghost, it was sure to be smitten with sacred fire and cast down into the darkest pits of Hell.\nOnce I felt the demonic presence emerge, I seized the invisible spirit, which stunk with foul and sulfurous breath. Struggling with this preternatural foe, I wrestled it over to the bathroom and forced it down the toilet, holding the lid down as I flushed the unholy abomination down to the bottomless abyss of Abaddon.\nNeedless to say, my computer functions perfectly now. If extremely reliable testimony isn't enough for you guys, I don't know what is.\n#38427 - 05/10/10 03:38 PM Re: Prove it [Re: The Zebu]\nLOL! Yep, that happens to me all the time. The nature of demons and spirits is always an interesting subject, but I'll save it for another post. Most black magick practitioners these days wouldn't bother with the summoning of inferior entities at this point when you could just as well be working with the Gods. Seems sort of silly to deal to take up your issues with a subordinate when you have a hotline to the boss. I can agree that most of the information in classic grimoires are rather ridiculous but they are also steeped in the brain damaged Judeo-Christian mindset of the common populace at the time. Most of these things were written at a time where people who believed in anything contrary to the mainstream were killed so this fact must be considered. Between the lumps of dirt lie the diamonds, but there is a lot of digging before you find anything. Modern practices shift away from puritanical bible references as they have been found to be completely unnecessary. I'm even pretty leery of the use of Shemhamforash in satanic ritual because it was traditionally said this way to avoid defaming the actual 72 letter name of God much in the way that Tetragrammaton was used instead of YHVH (or Yahweh/Jehovah). I would figure a Satanist would be perhaps be more interested in using the actual name in the sense of defiance, and not even to use it at all as some silly chant after ringing a bell. Its a mnemonic for a name of God and you might as well be saying Adonai (Lord, God) or YHVH (Jehovah) at that point. Lets poke some fun at ourselves first shall we?\nYou really can't prove anything to anyone. They must believe in the metrics and the preliminary information that you do or they can't see any apparent fact. The only proof existent is in the mind of the viewer with all phenomena and whether they will accept the information!\nRemember, you are not deactivating your skeptical facilities by having knowledge of things you cannot explain. I do not pretend to know all the answers but I collect information and observe. I generally don't view one or two coincidences as significant, but I have observed situations where I have seen I don't know... like... ten? That's far beyond the realm of the random event generator. It is for reasons such as this that many occult researchers kept diaries of their experiences. It was the only way they could reference all of these happenings and come to any sort of a conclusion.\nWe are in a unique position at this time in human history to research any subject of interest with a depth never before known. Religious opposition and societal prejudices can't stop us, so lets work toward finding the truth honestly. Don't let the biases of those that came before you limit your experiences. Break out of the mold and become responsible for your own evolution!\n\u2018This is fun really... 'ere we go! So do you believe in some sort of idea of dark thought yourself that decides that you aren't entirely an Atheist only? Welp, you just found your Devil. Game over. Sure, I can explain.\u2019 Mindmaster.\nI am a bit late here, but wanted to comment on this anyway.\nI like this quote, but feel that it needs some clarifying and polishing to be more resilient and clear.\nThe below statement is the crux of the matter, without the additional material:\n\u2018So do you believe in some sort of idea of dark thought yourself that decides that you aren\u2019t an Atheist only? Well, you have just found your Devil.\u2019\n\u2022\tI don\u2019t need to believe in some sort of idea of dark thought. If I am experiencing an idea of dark thought, then I automatically believe in it because it is present to consciousness.\n\u2022\tI don\u2019t have an idea of dark thought. I, in fact, have a thought which I define as dark, in accordance with the standards I have adopted or which my society has imposed on me.\n\u2022\tThat thought, which I have and define as dark, originates with me and cannot be said to truly deny my philosophical conviction that I am an Atheist because I cannot legitimately identify it originating with a supernatural entity existing independently outside of myself.\nI recognise and acknowledge an innate core of genuine subjectivity and potential buried deep inside my head, which is beyond culture and history and which is not subject to the metaphysical and social detritus which characterises my society and the role I may be expected to play within my society.\nI share this innate core and potential with those thousands of generations of my descendants (stretching back thousands and thousands of years into the past) whom I love and admire, though the vast majority of them are unknown to me.\nThis quintessential me, which remains buried under thousands of years of social convention and conditioned subjectivity I have named with the signifier of Satan. It is my most precious core and can also be named the black flame. Satan, in this context, is deeply personal and important to me.\nI see Satanism (just one aspect, mind you) as a concerted attempt to re-establish and celebrate the legitimate relationship between nature and culture. At this time I feel that attempting to install theism into the heart of Satanism would be to continue to muddy and blur the lines between a legitimate nature and culture.\nI appreciate, however, any attempt to answer this fundamental question of what or who is Satan.\nWickedPup WickedPup\nActually took the time to read through all of this. Alot of it just seems to be on repeat and redundant merely for the sake of argument.\nAs a start: I AM NOT A THEIST. In any sense of the word. I have never seen any reason for a power greater than myself, or for that matter, a power that gives myself purpose or reason besides the purposes and reasons I make.\nWith that out of the way...\nFrom what I've seen, there is no objective or scientific data that proves OR disproves the existence of a \"god\" entity. The absence of belief in a \"higher\" power is the same as believing that this is no \"higher\" power. There is no absence of belief, just a difference in it.\nJust cuz some people don't see any use in it doesn't mean that others can't find use in it. Reality and belief is subjective to each individual. I'm not trying to encourage a \"hugfest\" here. I just want to point out the futility of arguing between theists and atheists.\nAtheist: \"You believe in god? Well then where the fuck is he?\"\nTheist: \"I have faith and I can feel it in and around me\"\nAtheist: \"You're stupid.\"\nTheist: \"You're ignorant\"\nAtheist: \"Prove there is a god\"\nTheist: \"Prove there isn't\"\nIt's completely fucking pointless and just gets people heated for no reason other than their beliefs are being challenged.\nAtheists have as much faith in the lack of a higher power as much as theists have faith in the existence of it.\nAlong with the challenge for theists to prove objectively the existence of their higher power, I would like to see the exact scientific formula that proves there is no external entity that isn't based on theoretics.\n#42312 - 08/23/10 06:38 PM Re: Prove it [Re: WickedPup]\nThere is a huge difference between claiming something exists and rejecting that claim. They are not at all two equal sides of the same coin.\nFor starters, it is logically impossible to prove a universal negative. Saying 'prove x doesn't exist' is a logically incoherent statement. Truth value can only be ascertained for the positive claim.\nSecondly, faith is not epistemology. Nothing can be known through faith, as all faith claims, even mutually exclusive ones, are equal.\nIf one values undefiled wisdom, and actively shuns self deciet(as any Satanist worth his salt should), these are important talking points.\n#42314 - 08/23/10 06:53 PM Re: Prove it [Re: Dan_Dread]\nThe only difference I can see is where one says I do the other says I don't.\nI wasn't trying to make any relation to epistemology. Faith is the acceptance of any idea, or belief in that idea be it a thought, a person, an ideal, a principle, etc. While epistemology is the study of truth, faith is the realm of an accepted truth. Any metaphysical \"truth\" is subjective, including the idea of a god.\nWe have faith that the worlds most renown scientists are fucking up, which, they occasionally due. The difference is that we also have faith they'll go back and correct their mistakes, alter their theories and make such more accurate. While faith in a supreme being doesn't allow that being to come back and fix his fuck ups.\nI'll grant that asking someone to prove the unprovable is illogical. That was the whole point. I fail to see how either side has proof other than theories and faith. Its just a matter of personal preference.\nNothing productive comes from trying to tell people they're wrong with no objective way to prove it, in either sense.\nEdited by WickedPup (08/23/10 06:55 PM)\nWickedPup",

        "raw_content": "International: Indian life M&A: Ebb and flow\nForces for mergers and acquisitions (M&A)\nThe life insurance industry in India, like the rest of the financial services industry, is currently undergoing a structural change which is likely to continue as regulatory and legislative changes and economic recession alter traditional ways of doing business. In the last year, the life sector has received two big blows and two more are in the offing. These have certainly set the industry on its back foot, if not knocked it down completely.\n1 Global economic recession.\nThe recession has caused the industry to shrink, although some insurers managed better than others. Growth in the top line until the middle of 2008 was remarkable, primarily due to high commission levels and policyholders being sold unit-linked policies via highly emotive sales pitches fuelled by greed and fear. This led to most insurers increasing their geographical footprint, assuming that agent productivity levels were sustainable at this rate and that their offices would break even sooner rather than later. This is now no longer the case.\n2 Cap on unit-linked charges.\nThe regulator\u2019s recent circular on capping of unit-linked policy charges will lead to reduction in either distributor payouts, shareholder margins or both. Reduction in shareholder margins will lead to a drop in valuations and reduction in distributor payouts will, presumably, have a negative impact on sales, which will further push back the break-even point.\n3 Increase in taxation.\nA draft tax code \u2014 effective April 2011\u2014proposes a corporate tax rate of 25%. Many life insurers are still pricing their products using the 12.5% tax rate mentioned in the old tax code for the life insurance sector, even though the corporate tax code for other industries is 30%.\nIn addition, the maturity benefit from insurance contracts will be taxed with the exception of contracts where the sum assured is at least 20 times the annual premium, which is not true for most unit-linked contracts sold currently. The intention of the new legislative regime is to grant tax benefits only if the policy has meaningful protection and is not a savings instrument in the guise of an insurance contract. This legislation will possibly reduce the popularity of unit-linked contracts as an effective long-term savings instrument.\n4 Abolition of commissions.\nA consultation paper, \u2018Minimum Common Standards for Financial Advisers and Financial Education\u2019, issued by a committee constituted by the Government of India, has proposed abolition of entry and exit loads from all financial instruments, including insurance contracts. In addition, it proposes that, in order to curb misrepresentation at point of sale, commissions should be abolished effective April 2011 and a fee-based system, charging the customer directly, should be adopted as practised in countries like Australia. The recommendations, if accepted, would most probably have a negative impact on sales and would no doubt lead to some sort of consolidation in the industry.\nAll the factors listed above would suggest a strong likelihood of M&A in the life insurance industry in the coming years. However, one should avoid simplistic analysis which, in this case, would be to just look at top line, bottom line and the major changes occurring in the regulatory and legislative landscape.\nForces against M&A\nLet us look at five compelling reasons that could prevent M&A activity in the Indian life insurance industry.\n1 Creating sales momentum through guaranteed products.\nWith the equity bubble bursting for a second time this decade, some insurers have still managed to maintain market share or even enhance it by selling guaranteed unit-linked plans to overcome policyholders\u2019 fear of volatile returns. Selling equity-based guaranteed products is a riskier proposition than the normal unit-linked products where most of the investment risk is passed on to the policyholder. Not surprisingly, many insurers have still maintained distance from guaranteed products, presumably because their shareholders do not want to take such risk on their balance sheets.\n2 Margins.\nThere is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the operating models of many life insurers and new business margins (NBMs) are under pressure. However, the internal rate of return (IRR) on capital is still much higher than most other businesses and certainly of the foreign joint venture insurance partners. The expected growth rates for Indian life insurance companies are still better than the rest of the world.\nEven if the NBMs decrease from around 18% to 12% \u2014 a significant 33% reduction \u2014 as a result of the cap on charges and increased taxation, it would still imply an IRR of around 30%, which would appear to be attractive by any reasonable standards.\n3 Availability of capital.\nSignificant amounts of capital were required to fund expansion costs and solvency requirements. With the dawn of economic recession, all expansion plans were put on the back burner and the management teams of most insurers are under pressure to close expense overruns and demonstrate that their businesses can make profits. As such, capital requirements have reduced and raising capital through equity markets or private institutional placements using the India growth story should not be a problem for most shareholders, although the cost might be higher than before.\n4 Regulatory approval.\nM&A can only happen after regulatory approval. If two insurance companies merge, then they would end up having two Indian partners and two foreign partners as the owners of the combined entity. There is no such structure in place in India and it is not certain whether the regulator would be comfortable in approving such a move. In all likelihood, the trigger point for M&A is much more likely to emanate from two foreign partners merging at a global level. It is difficult to fathom a situation where there are multiple shareholders of which two are from foreign insurance companies and between them they hold a maximum of 26% shares, as allowed under the current regime.\n5 Management.\nThe final and most important aspect is that of the management of the foreign partners who have been telling their boards about the growth stories of their Indian businesses and getting rewarded for the same. They would not be interested in offloading their equity unless and until some extreme event hits their business, which causes their free surplus to decline and forces them to focus on local markets. The Indian shareholder is still looking at attractive valuations when companies start to list and, until then, it is unlikely that they will offload their entire equity, although they can offload partial equity through private placements in case of capital constraints.\nWill the industry consolidate or will the varied socio-economic demographics of India still allow companies to grow at a healthy rate for many more years? Only time will tell but one thing is for sure \u2014 the industry will see tempered growth rates going forward and, in such case, what differentiates winners from losers is the quality of business. Let us hope there is no Satyam* (cited as India\u2019s Madoff) or similar skeleton in the closet.\nFor such things not to occur, both the regulator and the boards of insurance companies have to cooperate. The regulator has to ensure that information on financial health, including financial statements of insurers, is in the public domain and there are on-site audits for things such as market conduct (e.g. sales illustration being signed by the policyholder). Boards have to ensure that management is incentivised not only by sales and profitability but also by qualitative aspects like policy persistency, compliance with regulations, market conduct of their intermediaries and risk management initiatives.\nThe world has witnessed in the current economic recession that management incentives are somewhat disjointed from company\u2019s performance, and boards should structure management remuneration such that no similar anomalies exist. Even the International Actuarial Association in its July 2009 newsletter, \u2018Global Financial Crisis\u2014What Next?\u2019, moots the idea that the regulators should increase the capital requirement for any market participant with remuneration incentives that focus excessively on short-term results.\nThe world has changed around us and companies need to respond nimbly and accept the change if they want to be here for the long haul. None of us knows what the future holds, but can we confidently say that we hold the future?\n*The Satyam Scandal: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7818220.stm\nSachin Saxena heads the product pricing team at Max New York Life Insurance in India.

This is particularly so in marriage. But any good idea can be misused. For example, it\u2019s honest for a man to tell his wife that he doesn\u2019t care for the way she cooks. It\u2019s honest for a woman to express anger over her husband\u2019s shortcomings. But honesty that does not have the best interest of the other person at heart is cruel, and a form of selfishness. This is especially so when the other person can\u2019t do anything about it. Some couples, in their determination to share every thought and opinion, destroy the sweet spark of romance that drew them together. No longer is there any sense of magic. They\u2019ve unraveled the romantic allure that first attracted them to one another. Your spouse is the person you chose to marry. So if you didn\u2019t do your homework up front, don\u2019t complain when you don\u2019t like the test results. Peter writes, \u201cContinue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins\u201d (1Pe 4:8 NLT). Paul writes: \u201cLove is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance\u201d (1Co 13:4-7 NLT). When you practice these virtues, you\u2019re guaranteed a happy marriage.\nPosted on Tue, May 3, 2016 by Vol One",

        "raw_content": "By Mary Chang on Thursday, 22nd June 2017 at 6:00 pm\nWe live in a musical world where unexpected reunions happen and produce amazing results, which is pretty amazing in itself. One of the most recent success stories in this vein is the reformation of Grandaddy, led by frontman Jason Lytle. Back in March, they released \u2018Last Place\u2019, their first studio album together in 11 years. It\u2019s a slow burner of a record, and they have unveiled the latest music video from the LP. The visuals of \u2018Brush With the Wild\u2019 star probably hopelessly doomed to be a nerd actor Jonah Ray. This certainly raised a smile for me, and I hope it does for you too.\nAbout the song itself, Lytle said to NPR, \u201cI had to be convinced it was okay to tell someone that I loved them or to just let my guard down. And then, once I did, it was almost like this wild, primal thing. But it only comes in little flashes. It\u2019s like a fish swimming through the river and every now and then it\u2019ll turn and the light will flash off its skin and you get a glimpse of it, then it\u2019s gone. Lightning is like that. But you get to experience it very briefly. [So] I was thinking how sad and bummed out I was finding the relationship being done [but] at least I got to experience that. I got to brush up against it.\u201d Some deep thoughts, eh? To catch up on all our coverage here on TGTF on Grandaddy, go here.\n[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0VLsQAiXDs[/youtube]\nVideo of the Moment #1973: Ghostpoet\nVideo of the Moment #885: Jake Bugg\nVideo of the Moment #2131: False Heads",

        "raw_content": "Game of Thrones at the Emmys and Other Award Highlights\nIt was American TV\u2019s biggest night and the stars were out in force. There was a hilarious song about diversity called We Fixed it, there was predictably a lot of representation from the Game of Thrones team and even an on-stage proposal during the 2018 Emmy Awards. Here are some of the highlights.\nPredictably!\nIt is the biggest, grandest, most unlike anything before it. So was it any wonder that GOT won the Emmy for the most outstanding drama series?\nHe won too\nPeter Dinklage, arguably the world\u2019s most famous little person and GOT\u2019s most likeable character, won the award for the most outstanding supporting actor in a drama series.\nBend the knee!\nGOT picked up 9 Emmy awards this year; more awards than any other scripted series!\nWhen the Emmys got political\nActors such as Rachel Brosnahan used her award speech to tell people to stay engaged and to vote. The wife of Jesse Peretz, (director of Glow) had the letters \u201cStop Kavanaugh\u201d written on her arm to protest against Trump's Supreme Court nominee.\nMore politics at the Emmys\nThere were also those who turned up in Nike gear to show support for the brand and their association with Colin Kaepernik. Ryan Murphy also decided to dedicate the award to the LGBTQ community \u2013 to increasing awareness and for creating stricter hate laws.\nHonouring the Grand Old Dame of American TV\nShe has been in TV for over 80 years. That itself is staggering. She is 96 and has done roles of all sorts over the years; also having received 8 Emmys. She was honoured for amazing journey and received a standing ovation.\nWhen Glen Weiss came on to stage, to accept the Emmy for outstanding director for a variety special, he proposed to his girlfriend. He gave her his mother's ring, she said yes and it was all rather emotional!\nFor diversity!\nWhat with TV films such as Crazy Rich Asians and To All the Boys I Loved as well as some others that did their bit to increase the representation of nonwhite diversity was something of a buzzword at the 70th Emmy awards. The TV fraternity has been patting itself on the back a bit, for this. This song both takes a dig at the smugness of those who believe that enough has been done for diversity and inclusivity; and also celebrates the fact that there is at least increased awareness of this now.\nNonwhite people are seriously under-represented in entertainment; something that content creators are only now paying heed to. People now recognise the fact that this is a systemic problem that needs addressing. Plus there are so many stories waiting to be told\u2026isn\u2019t it all about telling good stories after all?\nHere are the most significant awards in a neat little capsule that CBS put together for us.",

        "raw_content": "What Is Going On With Kapil Sharma? What\u2019s Next For Him?\nThere was a time when Kapil Sharma was the undisputed king of comedy primetime in India. His fans were everywhere and this show commanded ratings so enviable, no star could afford to release a film without a prerelease promotion on his show. But things quickly spiraled out of control for the comedy king. When Kapil Sharma was spotted at the airport recently, one got to wondering what is going on with him and how the future looks for him.\nHe was India\u2019s most popular TV personality\nIndia\u2019s most popular TV personality\nForbes listed him as the 11th on their celebrity list in 2016. He was even roped in by the Prime Minister for his pet project, the Swacch Bharat Abhiyan and acknowledged by the President for his efforts. He even starred in his own movies and for a while it seemed as though he could do no wrong.\nThe first cracks appeared in March 2017\nwith colleague Sunil Grover\nHelming hugely successful shows such as Comedy Nights with Kapil and The Kapil Sharma Show Sharma and his team appeared to be a closely knit, indefatigable unit\u2026 Until a very public spat with his colleague Sunil Grover aboard an airplane indicated that all was not well.\nHis hugely popular show went off air\nwith Chandan Prabhakar\nIn August of last year, it was announced that The Kapil Sharma Show would go off the air for some time. A mutually agreed \u2018short break\u2019 was announced after Sharma canceled several show shoots citing health issues. The show has not yet resumed, even ten months later.\nFamily Time with Kapil Sharma was gone after just three episodes\nOn 25 March this year, Sharma premiered a comedy-game show featuring some of his show regulars, Kiku Sharda and Chandan Prabhakar. This show again went off air because of canceled shooting and was supposed to resume after a hiatus. It never did.\nA few weeks back, he tweeted that he was making some changes, indicating that these were much needed. In the recent past, there have been reports that Sharma may return to TV, that he would work on a film with Salman Khan, but so far all this has come to naught.\nSharma was spotted returning to Mumbai recently\nAfter several weeks out of town, the comedian was spotted returning to Mumbai. He seemed happy to see his pet, but otherwise seemed much the worse for wear. Having put on considerable amount of weight and looking quite disheveled, he was a mere shadow of his former charming, laughing self.\nWhat went wrong for Sharma?\nHe soared to unimaginable heights of fame, popularity, success and presumably wealth. Many people who experience such meteoric rises seem unable to handle their fame and prosperity. Sharma certainly didn\u2019t seem to be able to do this. He was reportedly known for his rude and egotistical behavior with colleagues and unable to sustain personal relationships. There are reports of him having been in rehab facilities more than once and having left ahead of schedule. The recent sighting of Sharma has not been promising. He still seems in bad shape and it doesn\u2019t look like he\u2019s going return any time soon \u2013 much to the chagrin of his legions of fans.",

        "raw_content": "The New Jersey Devils defeated the Penguins 3-1 on a night when the Penguins could not catch a break from the goalposts, the schedule-maker, or especially the officials. The Pens accumulated 32 PIMs, had a penalty shot awarded against them, and Craig Adams was ejected from the game. This was on a play where he hit Martin Skoula after the whistle was blown for icing. Adams was whistled for a 5 minute major and was given a misconduct. Further review showed that the play was in fact not icing and the whistle should not have been blown, but it was too late to overturn the penalty, which the Pens did kill anyway. There was also much contraversy surrounding the Devils' 3rd goal in which Ilya Kovalchuk shot the puck on net and Marc-Andre Fleury's glove was interfered with while attempting to make the save. The play was deemed unreviewable, however, and the goal stood. The scoring of the game started out quickly with Patrick Elias scoring less than two minutes into the game, and Sidney Crosby answering 42 seconds later with a wrist shot past Brodeur. The second period was scoreless, with the highlight perhaps being Ilya Kovalchuk being stopped on a penalty shot by Marc-Andre Fleury after being tripped up by Kris Letang on a breakaway. The Devils opened the third quickly with an Andy Greene slapshot followed by Kovalchuk's highly contraversial goal. Matt Cooke also had a rough night, being the target of several questionable hits before finally dropping the gloves with Rob Niedermayer in the beginning of the third. Also, Tyler Kennedy has been healthy scratched for the past two games due to coaches decision. Kennedy brings a gritty physical presence as well as speed to the table, so this was an interesting decision by Bylsma. With or without Kennedy, the Penguins next play Sunday afternoon against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the third game of their five game road trip.",

        "raw_content": "Posted in Remember by admin - April 17, 2017\nA favourite of Robert Aldrich, the short, blond and stocky Richard Jaeckel seemed to spend most of his long screen career carrying a gun. He played in many westerns and war movies, and even though he sometimes disappeared into the background, his tough-guy persona was always a welcome presence, even in the most trashy of pictures.\nBorn in New York on October 10th 1926, Jaeckel was discovered while working at 20th Century-Fox as a mailboy. After debuting in the 1943 war flick \u2018Guadalcanal Diary\u2019, Richard\u2019s first role of note came in the powerful John Wayne picture \u2018Sands of Iwo Jima\u2019 (\u201949). After being killed by Gregory Peck\u2019s aging outlaw in \u2018The Gunfighter\u2019 (\u201950) it was the Oscar-winning melodrama \u2018Come Back, Little Sheba\u2019 (\u201952), that I first remember seeing Richard in, where he played Terry Moore\u2019s budding athlete boyfriend.\nFollowing strong turns in Robert Aldrich\u2019s excellent war drama \u2018Attack!\u2019 (\u201956), and Delmer Dave\u2019s thriller \u20183:10 to Yuma\u2019 (\u201957), one of Jaeckel\u2019s best roles came in Don Siegel\u2019s superb noir \u2018The Lineup\u2019 (\u201958). Playing a cocky killer who writes down his unfortunate victim\u2019s final words, Jaeckel excelled in a small but memorable part, something he would excel at over the next few years. Keeping busy at this time with TV spots on such popular shows as \u2018Naked City\u2019 and \u201977 Sunset Strip\u2019, another good film role came in the tense courtroom drama \u2018Town Without Pity\u2019 (\u201961), as one of four drunken G.I\u2019s accused of raping Christine Kaufman\u2019s 16 year old German girl.\nA rare comedy came in the shape of Aldrich\u2019s 1963 Frank Sinatra/ Dean Martin western; \u20184 for Texas\u2019, followed by a psychotic turn in John Derek\u2019s WWII drama \u2018Once Before I Die\u2019 (\u201966). One of Jaeckel\u2019s best remembered and certainly most recognizable roles came in Aldrich\u2019s hugely popular adventure \u2018The Dirty Dozen\u2019 (\u201967), as the tough, second-in-command sergeant Bowren. A rare time where his character survives at the end of the picture!\nRichard would then be a platoon member in the similar but not as good \u2018The Devil\u2019s Brigade\u2019 (\u201968). A true story this time, it would also feature \u2018Dozen\u2019s\u2019 comical characters and good supporting players, which included Claude Akins, Andrew Prine and Britain\u2019s Jack Watson. After dying again (this time to save the world!) in the trashy Sci-fi favourite \u2018The Green Slime\u2019 (\u201968), Richard would receive his only Academy Award nomination for Paul Newman\u2019s starry drama \u2018Sometimes a Great Notion\u2019 (\u201970). In one of his rare \u2018nice guy\u2019 roles, Richard was rather moving as Oregon logger Joe Ben, who tragically drowns while on a dangerous logging mission. Back with Robert Aldrich, Jaeckel was excellent in the superb and violent western \u2018Ulzana\u2019s Raid\u2019 (\u201972), as a tough and loyal Cavalryman who (of course!) meets another nasty end. After playing real-life Sheriff; Kip McKinney, in Sam Peckinpah\u2019s cult western \u2018Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid\u2019 (\u201973), he would venture back into Sci-fi territory with the apocalyptic drama \u2018Chosen Survivors\u2019 (\u201974).\nA trio of cult \u201ckiller creature\u201d horrors came next, starting with \u2018Grizzly\u2019 (\u201976), a sort of \u2018Jaws\u2019 homage, but with a rampaging bear! Next up was \u2018Mako: Jaws of Death'(\u201976) which had a top billed Jaeckel on the side of the revenging sharks. Finally, there was \u2018Day of the Animals\u2019 (\u201977), the best-known of the bunch, which saw Richard reteaming with \u2018Grizzly\u2019s Christopher George, and ends up being torn apart by a pack of dogs. In between Aldrich\u2019s cult political thriller \u2018Twilight\u2019s Last Gleaming\u2019 (\u201977) and the excellent wrestling comedy \u2018..All the Marbles\u2019 (\u201981), Jaeckel appeared in more cult genre fare, including \u2018The Dark\u2019 and \u2018The Amazing Mr No Legs\u2019 (both \u201979), as well as the hit-man drama \u2018Delta Fox\u2019 (\u201979) and Disney sequel \u2018Herbie Goes Bananas\u2019 (\u201980).\nAfter playing a Military man on the trail of Jeff Bridges\u2019 alien, in John Carpenter\u2019s Sci-fi romancer \u2018Starman\u2019 (\u201984), Richard reprised his role of Sergeant Bowren, alongside Lee Marvin\u2019s Major Reisman, in the TV sequel \u2018The Dirty Dozen: Next Mission\u2019 (\u201985). Following a scene-stealing turn in the John Carpenter scripted \u2018Black Moon Rising\u2019 (\u201986), Jaeckel would now mainly stick with television, having recurring roles in both \u2018Spenser: For Hire\u2019 (\u201985-7) and \u2018Baywatch\u2019 (\u201991-4). In 1994 Jaeckel would file for bankruptcy and eventually lose his Californian home. He later moved into a retirement home for actors where he would remain until his death in 1997.\nA private person off screen, Richard Jaeckel died after a 3 year battle with cancer, on June 14th 1997, aged 70. With a career and marriage spanning 50 years, Jaeckel became one of Hollywood\u2019s most respected character actors, whether playing kindly authority figures, or killers for hire, he did it with a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his face.\nFavourite Movie: Ulzana\u2019s Raid\nFavourite Performance: The Dirty Dozen\nTags: American, Fifties, Sixties, War, Western",

        "raw_content": "The state election seems like just yesterday if you live in Hobart. Chances are you have to vote again this Saturday. The Tasmanian Legislative Council elections for the seats of Hobart and Prosser are being held this weekend and voting is compulsory for Australian citizens living within these electorates.\nYou can find out if you are eligible to vote on Saturday here.\nLook under State Legislative Council Division and if it says Hobart or Prosser, you have to vote\nAlthough the campaigning and coverage for the Lower House election was so extensive it became exhausting (if you\u2019re not a politics junkie like me that is), there hasn\u2019t been a lot of coverage for the upcoming Legislative Council elections. If you are wondering who to vote for, or only just found out you had to vote, we\u2019ve compiled a list of all the candidates to help you make a decision. As the electorate of Prosser is situated where very few UTas students would live, we\u2019ve decided to focus on Hobart. If you do live in Prosser however, and would like a detailed analysis of the candidates, refer to this analysis by Tasmanian electoral analyst Kevin Bonham.\nThe current make-up of the Legislative Council is 10 Independents, 4 Labor and 1 Liberal, making our upper house the only non-partisan House in Australia. The sitting member for Hobart, Rob Valentine, makes up one of those 10 Independents, who range from left to right on political spectrum. With the Greens and Labor not running a candidate in this election, the choice is between a Liberal, minor party candidates, and independents. Members of the Legislative Council hold their seat for six years and are elected on a rotational basis so only two or three seats are contested each year.\nNow what actually is the Legislative Council? Well, it basically works the same way the Senate does in Canberra. It is a house of review that scrutinises legislation that comes from the Lower House, where the Premier and most of the ministers reside. If the Premier wants to get legislation through, it also needs the support of the Legislative Council. With 4 Labor members and some left-leaning independents, some of the legislation the Government has tried to pass has been blocked or amended. The Legislative Council acts as a check on the power of the Government and every state in Australia has one, except Queensland (who had to get their Upper House to vote themselves out of a job, which they did lol).\nIt is worth noting that there are no female candidates in this election, which is disappointing considering the great progress made recently with Tasmania becoming the first state in Australia to have a majority female Lower House. So, of the 6 (male) candidates running, what do they stand for, and what will they do?\nThe Basics: Incumbent, left-leaning, pro-environment, healthcare and the arts.\nValentine is the current sitting member for the seat of Hobart, having taken the seat from Doug Parkinson, Labor, in 2012. Before that, he was the longest serving Lord Mayor of Hobart.\nHe has been identified as the most left-leaning member of the Legislative Council, based on a voting analysis by Kevin Bonham. Valentine is unconvinced of the merits of the Mt Wellington cable-car, opposes mandatory sentencing, believes policies relating to housing availability need review and supports preventative health programs. He is a supporter of the arts and believes in the need for decisive action on climate change.\nThe Basics: Lawyer, independent, human-rights focus, environmentalist.\nA new face, Richard Griggs is a lawyer and head of the Tasmanian Branch of Civil Liberties Australia. Recently, Griggs has lead the charge for a Tasmanian Human Rights Act. In his time as head of the campaign, the cause gained support from both Labor and the Greens.\nHe has decided to step aside from his position of lead campaigner to run for the seat of Hobart, promising \u2018New Ideas and New Energy\u2019. He has advocated for free peak-hour bus travel to address Hobart\u2019s traffic problems, has been critical of attempts to amend the Anti-Discrimination Act, believes in pursuing a Tasmanian Human Rights Act and feels the need for a cultural shift in which an education up to Year 12 and beyond is considered the \u2018new normal\u2019. Griggs is also passionate about the environment and advocates for a Tarkine National Park, he is also opposed to the Mt Wellington cable-car.\nSimon Behrakis\nThe Basics: Focus on economy, growth and jobs. Pro traditional values.\nSimon Behrakis may be a familiar face to some, having recently run unsuccessfully for Denison in the state election. If elected to the Legislative Council, the small business owner would become the 2nd Liberal member, boosting the Liberals ability to pass legislation and is running to provide balance in the Upper House. As an endorsed candidate, it is likely Behrakis would vote in favour of all government legislation. Behrakis has identified his top two priorities as ensuring economic growth and maintaining \u2018our values and heritage\u2019 in a profile he has written for the Australian Christian Lobby website. Behrakis has identified several ways he intends on maintaining our values and heritage, including through making sure programs such as Safe Schools \u2018never make their way into the curriculum in our state\u2019 and opposing \u2018any move to implement gender theory in our schools\u2019, as well as opposing changing the date of Australia Day. Behrakis believes in delivering on job creation and \u2018fostering an economic environment where small businesses can thrive and grow\u2019.\nBrendon Hext\nShooters, Fishers and Farmers\nThe Basics: Protecting your right to enjoy the outdoor life\nHext is an armoured truck operator who lives in Rokeby (outside the electorate). He is an \u2018outdoors\u2019 person who enjoys Four Wheel Driving, fishing and motorbike riding. He has belonged to the SFF party for 4 years and wants to see the Government follow through on their election promises. Whilst not providing specific policies on the party website, the general party policies include improved rural infrastructure, \u2018vigorous\u2019 protection of the right to enjoy the outdoor life, and the protection of the environment through education and biosecurity measures.\nChris Simcox\nThe Basics: Animal rights focus. Anti cable-car\nSimcox is an animal rights activist who lives in Petcheys Bay (also outside the electorate). He is the first AJP candidate for a seat in Tasmanian parliament. He commits to campaigning for a ban on greyhound racing, the end of factory farming, a change to the Dog Control Act 2000 and to stop the \u2018slaughter of wildlife\u2019 by hunting, crop protection and the use of poison, and address the problem of roadkill. He is opposed to the Mt Wellington cable-car.\nTasmanians 4 Tasmania\nThe Basics: Keeping the government honest. Pro cable-car\nBarnett is semi-retired and lives in Glenorchy, also outside the electorate. He is running for the new \u2018Tasmanians 4 Tasmania\u2019 party, which he describes as a truly Tasmanian only party, dedicated to acting in the best interests of Tasmania. When running for the seat of Denison in the recent state election he said his objective was to ensure that the government acts in the best interests of the state and its people. He is in favour of a Mt Wellington cable-car.\nMany thanks to Kevin Bonham, whose blog has been invaluable for information on the candidates.\nWhoever is successful in bid for the seat of Hobart will be your representative for the next six years. So make sure you do your research, choose wisely, and don\u2019t forget to vote!",

        "raw_content": "I specialise in cutting, colouring, bridal and prom styles. Hairdressing has been not only a career but also a passion that has been with me throughout my life, starting as an Apprentice at one of Hull\u2019s top city centre salons. I love giving people \u2018the feel good factor\u2019, helping them build their self esteem and walk out of the salon feeling holistically on top of the world .\nI feel that my natural talent is to make my clients feel at ease, and that they are in great professional hands and know that their self-confidence will be lifted to new levels. Many of my clients and staff have become like an extended family and I could not have done it without them. Rest assured you are in the hands of someone who really cares about you and making the world more beautiful.\nThroughout my hairdressing career I have always paid great attention to training and keeping up to-date with the new fashions and products.\nI have represented my country both internationally and in the UK. I became part of the C.A T British Team, and I was World Festival Champion twice and gained 2 Gold Medals. Representing my country was a huge honour and a whole lot of fun meeting other top stylists from around the Globe.\nI have hair dressed in Cannes- South of France, Osaka- Japan, Ecuador, Costa Rica and Honduras. I have also won many, many awards, trophies and certificates from throughout my career.\nI love training my staff and apprentices who have also gained many awards including Top apprentices.\nI was the youngest Hull Guild of Hairdressing Provincial Master and looked like the Lady Mayoress with may chain of office which I was proud to wear. I was the very proud owner of three salons called Hairaisers International that were very popular and successful, until one day my life changed in a huge way.\nI have a strong Faith and felt that God was calling my family and I to train and serve the poorest of the poor and those infected or affected by the HIV Virus, in Honduras Central America.\nAfter much thought, prayer and study my husband and I both received a B.A.M in Hon degree in Theology and Ministry, and then went to Costa Rica with our children for a year to learn the Spanish Language and then on to work alongside a local church in Choluteca Honduras, where we served and worked with very poor communities, helping to bring awareness to the stigma and discrimination and the true facts on how you can actually contract the virus. We raised the money to buy land to build a community project on and which gave houses to those who did not have one. Also children\u2019s homes that they could call their own until they no longer needed it, giving them a family life, education and food and love. It was an amazing and heart breaking time and one that I would never change.\nHairdressing has been such an amazing gift to have as it has not only helped me and my family keep a roof over our heads but also bring joy into many peoples lives who could not afford to have their hair done or learn how to do it themselves.\nRecently, I have worked mobile and also at Jubilee Church Hull as a pastoral leader and Life College manager. Working with the homeless and those whose lives are chaotic and need help, or an ear to listen to them. I could not have done any of this had I not had experience with the public in a listening capacity.\nI am so proud of my family, Husband Ian, Son Casey Adam, and Daughter Loren Addie and Son-in-law Paul. Loren and I could not do this without you by our sides.",

        "raw_content": "The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) conducts an annual survey of ground and surface water use by municipal and industrial entities within the state of Texas via the Water Use Survey. For retail public water suppliers that have an active financial obligation with the agency or have more than 3,300 retail connections, a Water Loss Audit must also be submitted annually. Finally, if an entity has a financial obligation with the agency greater than $500,000, has more than 3,300 retail connections or has a surface water right with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), a water conservation plan must be on file and a Conservation Annual Report must also be submitted each year that any of these conditions is true.\nIn 2013, the 83rd Texas Legislature appropriated funds to the Texas Water Development Board to streamline the online data collection for the Board\u2019s water planning and conservation programs. The bill called for the development of \"an online tool to consolidate reporting requirements related to the Water Use Survey, annual Water Loss Report, and annual Water Conservation Report. The agency shall also develop an online tool to quantify water conservation savings. The agency shall provide the ability for these reports to be completed, submitted and viewable by the public online\".\nThis consolidation project was divided into 3 phases, with delivery dates scheduled over a 3 year period. Phase 1 was the development of a single point of entry through which entities were able to access their Water Use Survey and Water Loss Audit reports and common data will be passed from one report to another. This was deployed in January 2015 for reporting year 2014. Phase 2 was the creation of a new Water Conservation application and database which receives common data from both the Water Use Survey and Water Loss Audit, as well as other data, that will assist in the completion of an entity\u2019s Utility Profile and Conservation Annual Report. This will be achieved by continuing the population of common data into these reports from the Water Use Survey and Water Loss Audit as well as using historical data that will now be stored in the new database. This was deployed in January 2017 for reporting year 2016.\nPhase 3 was the development of a tool through which reports related to any of the above applications will be accessible to the public online and those reports may be accessed below.\nWater Loss Audit Historical Data\nSummary of Water Loss Audits Reports\nSummary of Water Balance Data Reports\nConservation Annual Report Historical Data\nWater Conservation Annual Reports\nFor further information on or if there are questions about any of the above reports, please contact Water Loss staff (WLA-Group@twdb.texas.gov) or Water Conservation staff (wcpteam@twdb.texas.gov).",

The focus is to investigate such allegation using Enugu State Broadcasting Service (ESBS) radio/TV as a case study. The study was based on critical theory by staurt Hall. The theory views the means by which the \u201chaves of society gain the willing support of the \u201chave nots\u201d to maintain the status quo. The study uses empirical method observing the five chapters structural arrangement, with each chapter assigned a specific role to play for the overall success of producing a reliable result. The researcher consulted relevant literature to raise secondary data while survey method was used to generate primary data for analysis. The data generated using questionnaire techniques were tested using chi-share goodness of fit test formular. Data were presented in tables and extensively discussed to enable the researcher draw his conclusion and make some recommendations. The researcher though did not find Enugu state government using it\u2019s broadcast outfits as propaganda machinery, but strongly recommends that the management of the broadcast stations should overhaul it\u2019s programmes in order to drop those perceived by the media audiences as sycophantic, wherein presenters use them to sing praises for the state government unnecessarily.\nBroadcasting, according to Robert White (1999:485) was introduced as a form of military communication in the 1920\u2019s, the apogee of nationalism and government propaganda",

In the book, Tia's mother, Virginia, is in denial about Tia's illness. She tells Tia that she doesn't need to take her medicine--just pray and it'll all work out. I have faith, and I definitely believe in the power of prayer, but I believe that God placed doctors on this earth for a reason. Tia found herself in a complex situation. Should she listen to her mother, or should she listen to the doctors? I see it like this: the doctors are the experts when it comes to the diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses. Mom...not so much. If Tia had followed her doctor's directions from the beginning, she could have saved herself and her family from a lot of the pain and embarassment that they had to endure.\nI finally began to read the book tonight and I must say that I am hooked. So far, Tia seems like your typical workaholic, who doesn't have time for dating. I wonder if her co-workers know something is wrong with her?\nIs it me, or is Tia's entire family crazy!? That entire proposal at the restaurant reminded me of Professor Klump's family in \"The Nutty Professor\".",

        "raw_content": "A few months ago Unite was approached by Yvette Nolan, director of Hardly Art to collaborate on a digital strategy to promote their new production Short Cuts 10-Minute Play Festival in Saskatoon. Short Cuts is a fun, fast-paced festival consisting of six plays, each 10 minutes long, with 18 Playwrights, Actors, and Directors collaborating, followed by food and reception. The challenge they faced was introducing a new idea, a fast-paced 10-minute play festival in this case, to an audience in Saskatoon, with a small budget. Being super enthusiastic and supportive of arts in our community, we gladly accepted this challenge.\nOpening Night Sold Out!\nWe had an initial meeting with the theatre folks to figure out their objectives and target audience. After doing some research we came up with the strategy called \u201cBecause in 10 Minutes your life can change\u201d. With the campaign spread out over three months, we achieved both objectives, of increasing awareness and selling tickets. As of Thursday, the day before launch, opening night was sold out, and Saturday night show was half sold out, and Sunday tickets selling as expected.\nUPDATE: As of Sunday, opening night, Saturday and Sunday shows were sold out!\nThis partnership has been very meaningful, and we look forward to working with more creative organizations locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally in the future.\nUnite helps positive messages spread and purpose driven organizations succeed through strategic marketing, creative ideas, and high-quality media. Get in touch with us to discuss how we can work together.\nAbout Hardly Art\nHardly Art was created in Winnipeg in 1988 to produce exciting, innovative, Canadian theatre work. In 1989, Hardly Art produced Judith Thompson\u2019s The Crackwalker, the first time Thompsons had been seen on a professional stage in Manitoba. In 1990, the company premiered Yvette Nolan\u2019s acclaimed first play, BLADE. Since then, Hardly Art has produced, Smaller (Winnipeg), BLADE (Vancouver, and Child and Video (Adelaine, Australia). In 2012 Hardly Art presented Native Earth Theatre\u2019s production of Almight Voice and His Wife in Saskatoon.",

It outlines how the linguistic situation that exists in present-day Scotland arose, and suggests various ways to make sense of the range of Scottish varieties encompassed by the superordinate term Scottish\u2013English. A range of questions surrounds the status of Scottish\u2013English varieties: whether they are best described as discrete languages in their own right or alternatively as dialects of English; the existence or absence of a Scottish standard variety; and status and register constraints. Also under discussion are issues such as how people in Scotland feel about the language they use, focusing particularly on their self-awareness, ambivalent attitudes, and the frequently encountered linguistic insecurity. Finally, the chapter considers the relevance and implications of these factors for an analysis of Scottish newspaper texts.Less\nThis chapter gives an overview of the complex linguistic situation in Scotland and links it to discussion of the language of the newspapers.

        "raw_content": "Men's Swimming Duo Sets New Standards\nCOLLEGEVILLE, Pa. \u2013 Jacob Menzer and Michael Prior each took down a pool record and the Ursinus College men's swimming team shook off jet lag to post a 144-118 non-conference victory over Susquehanna in its first dual meet of 2019.\nHaving returned home from their annual winter trip to Florida the day before, the Bears (4-2) got right back in the pool with an impressive effort highlighted by the historic performances of two of their stars.\nMenzer marked a time of 1:43.96 in the 200 free, besting by nearly a second the previous Elliott Pool standard, which had been held by Gettysburg's Matt Libby since 2011. Only the 1650 free, which had stood since 2007, has had a longer run on the men's side of the pool record book.\nPrior eclipsed his own Elliott Pool record with a clocking of 1:54.80 in the 200 back, a full three-quarters of a second ahead of the time he achieved last season.\nMenzer was also victorious in the 100 free, checking in at 47.99.\nPrior joined senior Maxwell Coulter, freshman Daniel Mueser, and freshman Ryan Carkhuff to capture first place in the 200 medley relay, opening the meet with a time of 1:37.40.\nThe River Hawks claimed the next four events, but senior James Callaghan notched a win in the 200 fly (2:01.04), where senior Johnathan Myers was second (2:02.76).\nJunior Jared Krawetz led a 1-2 finish in the 500 free with a time of 4:56.39, with freshman William Clift taking runner-up status.\nMueser came up with a victory in the 100 fly (52.56), and sophomore Matthew Buccella was second in that race.\nPrior placed second in both the 100 back (53.72) and 200 IM (2:01.66), while Coulter was runner-up in the 100 breast (1:01.88) and 200 breast (2:20.08).\nCarkhuff (22.05) and Mueser (22.25) placed second and third, respectively, in the 50 free. Krawetz (1:47.53) and junior Casey Lear (1:48.11) did the same in the 200 free, as did senior Kevin Gill (10:31.43) and freshman Matthew Seeburger (10:35.59) in the 1000 free.\nThe meet ended on a scintillating note as Menzer, Lear, Mueser, and Carkhuff went stroke for stroke with Susquehanna in the 200 free relay, ultimately coming up short by one hundredth of a second with a time of 1:27.79.\nThe Bears were scheduled to travel to NYU on Saturday, but that trip has been cancelled due to the impending storm and the state of emergency issued in Pennsylvania. The team's next meet is at home against Franklin & Marshall on January 26.",

        "title": "RAND report-Threat of homegrown jihadism exaggerated",
        "raw_content": "RAND report: Threat of homegrown jihadism exaggerated,\nZero U.S. civilians killed since 9/11\nSource: http://www.loonwatch.com/2010/05/rand-report-threat-of-jihadist-terrorism-exaggerated//\nU.S. Muslim population to double by 2030\nSome time ago we published an article entitled \u201cAll terrorists are Muslims, except the 94% that aren\u2032t\u201c, in which official FBI records were reviewed and it was determined that-contrary to public perception-only 6% of terrorist attacks on U.S. soil from 1980 to 2005 were committed by jihadists.\nWe also linked to a study (via CNN) released by Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that concluded that \u201cthe terrorist threat posed by radicalized Muslim-Americans has been exaggerated.\u201d\nNow, the RAND Corporation-the incredibly influential nonprofit global policy think tank (financed by the U.S. government)-has released a report that confirms that the threat of jihadist terrorism in the United States has been heavily exaggerated. The report documents and analyzes acts of terrorism in the U.S. from 9/11 to the end of 2009.\nThe otherwise helpful report is only slightly marred by the misuse of the word \u201cjihad\u201d, something which has unfortunately been used synonymously with \u201cterrorism\u201d. Jihad means \u201cstruggle\u201d; the spiritual struggle against one\u2032s ego, for instance, is considered by Muslims to be a type of jihad. As for armed struggle, Muslim Americans view it as the Islamic equivalent of the \u201cjust war theory\u201d. Terrorism then is considered antithetical to jihad and in fact, a jihad is to be waged against terrorism. In any case, the oversight on the part of RAND seems unintentional and therefore benign. We have ourselves retained the usage of the word \u201cjihadist\u201d in our own analysis, making a distinction between \u201cjihad\u201d and \u201cjihadist\u201d-using the latter in a purely pejorative manner.\nThe RAND report includes a time line of all acts of terrorism on U.S. soil committed by jihadists. Not a single U.S. civilian has been killed by jihadists since 9/11. However, fourteen soldiers have been killed, thirteen of those during the Fort Hood Shooting.\nNot only were no civilians killed by jihadists in this period, but only three jihadist acts of terrorism were committed. Jihadism thus accounted for only 3.6% of terrorist attacks. The RAND report states:\n[Of the] 83 terrorist attacks in the United States between 9/11 and the end of 2009, only three-were clearly connected with the jihadist cause. (The RAND database includes Abdulmutallab\u2032s failed Christmas Day attempt to detonate a bomb on an airplane.) The other jihadist plots were interrupted by authorities.\nFifty of the 83 terrorist attacks were committed by environmental extremists and animal rights fanatics, \u201cwhich account for most of the violence.\u201d Five civilians were killed by the anthrax letters.\nThe RAND report includes a number of other interesting findings:\n(1) The number of jihadist recruits is \u201ctiny\u201d, and the overwhelming majority of Muslim Americans oppose jihadist ideologies. Therefore, a mistrust of Muslim Americans is unfounded. The Muslim American community is not a fifth column, and does not seek to do harm to their fellow Americans. Rather, jihadists remain \u201clone gunmen\u201d and commit \u201cone-off attacks\u201d, with no community support. The report reads:\n-The number of [Jihadist] recruits is still tiny. There are more than 3 million Muslims in the United States, and few more than 100 have joined jihad-about one out of every 30,000-suggesting an American Muslim population that remains hostile to jihadist ideology and its exhortations to violence. A mistrust of American Muslims by other Americans seems misplaced-\nThe homegrown jihadist threat in America today consists of tiny conspiracies, lone gunmen, and one-off attacks-\nThere is no evidence that America\u2032s Muslim community is becoming more radical. Overt expressions of Muslim militancy are muted and rare-\nThat [overseas] jihadist leaders have been reduced to appeals for others to carry out even small-scale attacks in the United States is evidence of an operational decline that America\u2032s homegrown terrorists will not be able to reverse..\nThat, then, is the threat America faces at home today: tiny conspiracies, lone gunmen, one-off attacks rather than sustained terrorist campaigns (although a lone gunman killing at random could sustain a campaign, as we saw in the case of the Beltway sniper attacks in 2002).\n(2) Jihadist websites, not the mosque, were the main source of radicalization. The report reads:\nMany of the jihadist recruits in the United States began their journey on the Internet, where they could readily find resonance and reinforcement of their own discontents and people who would legitimate and direct their anger.\nThis confirms what is already well known amongst Muslim American circles, namely that mosques in the U.S. are a poor place to search for jihadists. Mosques and the mainstream Islamic organizations that run them are seen by jihadists to be \u201csell-outs\u201d, \u201ctraitors\u201d, \u201cpuppets\u201d, \u201cstooges\u201d, \u201chouse slaves\u201d, and \u201cUncle Toms\u201d. In turn, mosque management in general shuns jihadists, forcing the latter to \u201cgo underground\u201d, usually seeking like-minded people on the internet. Monitoring militant websites is necessary, whereas excessive spying on mosques will be less fruitful and even detrimental.\n(3) Many homegrown jihadists are not observant Muslims, but criminally inclined. They are often attracted to jihadist ideologies due to the sense of adventure and thrill rather than religion or spirituality. The RAND report declares:\nSome of the recruits gained experience on the streets. At least 23 have criminal records-some of them very long records-for charges including aggravated assault, armed robbery, and drug dealing-Some were naive, some were adventurers, some were misguided-The jobs they held and the criminal records of some suggest that many are high school dropouts (or immigrants in entry-level jobs). But at least 16 are known to have had some university training in subjects including computer sciences, engineering, pharmacology, and medicine, and at least four had graduate training.\n(4) A glance at RAND\u2032s list of terrorist acts indicates that a disproportionately large number of jihadists are converts to Islam. If we combine points (2) and (3) above, we may conclude that many are criminally inclined and convert to Jihadist Islam as a means to fulfill their sense of adventure; they have very little if any interaction with the mainstream Muslim community or local mosques, but instead seek out jihadist websites which radicalize them further. This voluntary isolation and involuntary exclusion from the main body makes it harder for the Muslim community to control or root the jihadists out, as the jihadists are-and remain-somewhat exogenous to the community and operate independently from it.\n(5) Many of the jihadists had intention to harm but were arrested before they could actually act on it; convictions were based on intent, not action. They were \u201cready to be terrorists\u201d but had not yet committed terrorism. Notwithstanding heavy-handed policing tactics that may be unconstitutional, this finding indicates that the U.S. authorities are keeping us safe, and as such we ought not live in mortal fear of jihadism. The report says:\nA good percentage of those arrested could be described as having the experience and skills that would make them dangerous. But what is most at issue here are intentions, not ability. The 46 cases demonstrate earnest intent. The individuals were ready to be terrorists. Their ideological commitment was manifest-They came into contact with U.S. authorities when they tried to act on their beliefs. They had, in the words of one prosecutor, \u201cjihadi hearts and jihadi minds,\u201d and juries convicted them on their intent-\nMost of the plots could be described as more aspirational than operational-[often] fantastic schemes-\n(6) The need to prevent terrorism before it occurs promotes overly aggressive prosecution that may lead to people being convicted for \u201cthought crimes\u201d. The report cautions:\nThat puts the American justice system perilously close to prosecuting people solely on the basis of what is in their hearts and on their minds. It is slippery terrain and not a domain where one ought to feel comfortable.\nFurthermore, the authorities may be guilty of using entrapment, inducing radicalized Muslims to commit offenses which they would otherwise have been unlikely to commit. Confidential informants can become agent provocateurs. Some Muslim American leaders feel that efforts should be made to de-radicalize brainwashed youngsters instead of entrapping them. The report warns:\nOften, police intelligence depends on the use of confidential informants, which may be the only way to break into a conspiracy. There are, however, possible abuses in the employment of confidential informants, especially given the very broad interpretation of providing material assistance to a terrorist group and the difficulty of determining intent, particularly since one of the characteristics of many terrorist perpetrators is their malleability. Confidential informants are often determined to prove their value to their police handlers, whether the currency is cash or avoiding trouble relating to other criminal charges. Informants are also likely, of necessity, to display undiluted zeal in order to gain credibility among jihadist zealots. Thus, the informants can easily become agents provocateurs, subtly coaxing radicalized but hesitant individuals into action. Even without providing overt encouragement, the informant often plays the role of an enabler, offering people with extreme views but faint hearts the means to act, thereby potentially facilitating actions that otherwise might not occur.\nDespite the fact that actual acts of jihadist terrorism remain relatively low, a disproportionately higher number of Muslims are convicted on charges of terrorism. Objective observers have argued that many of the defendants have been railroaded by the justice system, due to a variety of reasons. This overly aggressive prosecution has caused feelings of distrust in the Muslim American community. The report reads:\nNot everyone agrees that justice has been done in all cases [prosecuted]. Professional intelligence and law enforcement officials themselves wonder how far they can reach without repeating past excesses. Objective observers remain skeptical of the charges in several of the cases. Juries comprising frightened citizens do not always reach unbiased verdicts. National consensus is fragile. Risks must be carefully weighed-\nSome of the recent arrests have been heavily criticized as reflections of post-9/11 paranoia, Islamophobia, and national hysteria.\n(7) The report declares that \u201cthe 1970s saw greater terrorist violence\u201d than nowadays, yet most Americans today perceive terrorism to be a radically new and emergent existential threat. It is the perception of terrorism, not terrorism itself, that is greater than previous decades. The report finds:\nWhile radicalization and recruitment to jihadist terrorism are cause for continuing concern, the current threat must be kept in perspective. The volume of domestic terrorist activity was much greater in the 1970s than it is today. That decade saw 60 to 70 terrorist incidents, most of them bombings, on U.S. soil every year-a level of terrorist activity 15 to 20 times that seen in most of the years since 9/11, even counting foiled plots as incidents. And in the nine year period from 1970 to 1978, 72 people died in terrorist incidents, more than five times the number killed by jihadist terrorists in the United States in the almost nine years since 9/11-\nIn the 1970s, terrorists, on behalf of a variety of causes, hijacked airliners; held hostages in Washington, New York, Chicago, and San Francisco; bombed embassies, corporate headquarters, and government buildings; robbed banks; murdered diplomats; and blew up power transformers, causing widespread blackouts. These were not one-off attacks but sustained campaigns by terrorist gangs that were able to avoid capture for years. The Weather Underground was responsible for 45 bombings between 1970 and 1977, the date of its last action, while the New World Liberation Front claimed responsibility for approximately 70 bombings in the San Francisco Bay area between 1974 and 1978 and was believed to be responsible for another 26 bombings in other Northern California cities. Anti-Castro Cuban exile groups claimed responsibility for nearly 100 bombings. Continuing an armed campaign that dated back to the 1930s, Puerto Rican separatists, reorganized in 1974 as the Armed Front for National Liberation (FALN), claimed credit for more than 60 bombings. The Jewish Defense League and similar groups protesting the plight of Jews in the Soviet Union claimed responsibility for more than 50 bombings during the decade. Croatian and Serbian emigres also carried out sporadic terrorist attacks in the United States, as did remnants of the Ku Klux Klan.\nSome of these groups clearly benefited from the support of radicalized subcultures or sympathetic ethnic communities, which made suppression difficult.\n(8) Jihadists have failed to launch a sustained campaign in the United States. Al-Qaeda has not succeeded in sabotaging American life. One of the reasons for this is the Muslim American community, which has opposed the jihadist ideology. Without sympathetic ethnic support, the jihadists have not been able to sustain themselves. The report reads:\nWhile radicalization and recruitment to jihadist terrorism remain cause for continuing concern, the current threat must be kept in perspective. What has not occurred is just as significant as what has occurred: Thus far, there has been no sustained jihadist terrorist campaign in the United States. There are many possible reasons: Al Qaeda simply lacked the assets to carry out terrorist operations. The local Muslim community rejected al Qaeda\u2032s appeals and actively intervened to dissuade those with radical tendencies from violence. Domestic intelligence efforts were expanded and improved and thus far have succeeded in thwarting all but two actual attacks. Surveillance of radical venues, real or imagined, plus actual arrests contributed to a deterrent effect. Guns are readily available, but the ingredients of explosives became harder to obtain and were more closely monitored. Security visibly improved. While constant government admonitions early in the decade to remain vigilant seemed silly afterthoughts to dire warnings of imminent attack, citizens became more watchful and reported suspicious activity, which in at least a few of the cases yielded real results, adding further to a deterrent effect-\n(9) The heightened sense of fear of terrorism today as compared to the 1970\u2032s can be attributed to 9/11, an event which remains an outlier but distorts perspective. The report reads:\nThe scale of the September 11, 2001, attacks tended to obliterate America\u2032s memory of pre-9/11 terrorism, yet measured by the number of terrorist attacks, the volume of domestic terrorist activity was much greater in the 1970s. That tumultuous decade saw 60 to 70 terrorist incidents, mostly bombings, on U.S. soil every year-a level of terrorist activity 15 to 20 times that seen in the years since 9/11, even when foiled plots are counted as incidents. And in the nine-year period from 1970 to 1978, 72 people died in terrorist incidents, more than five times the number killed by jihadist terrorists in the United States in the almost nine years since 9/11.\nSince 9/11, no American civilians have been killed by jihadist terrorism. And if we exclude 9/11, only nine people were ever killed in the U.S. from jihadist terrorism over the course of a decade and a half (from 1990 to 2005).\n(10) Americans have ceded their civil liberties to the government due to the misplaced fear of terrorism. The first group affected by these heavy-handed laws are Muslim Americans, which hampers anti-terrorism efforts by alienating the very community whose cooperation is so necessary. The report declares:\nIn response, the country has conceded to the authorities broader powers to prevent terrorism. However, one danger of this response is that revelations of abuse or of heavy-handed tactics could easily discredit intelligence operations, provoke public anger, and erode the most effective barrier of all to radicalization: the cooperation of the community.\nWe argue that the loss of civil liberties and rise in xenophobia have a more significant and longer lasting effect than acts of terrorism.\n(11) The report notes that the first line of defense to prevent terrorism are the relatives and close friends of the newly radicalized jihadist. Therefore, it is imperative to maintain the trust of the Muslim American community, and not commit similar errors as some police officers did with the African American community in inner cities. The report reads:\nRelatives and friends are often more likely than the authorities to know when someone is turning dangerously radical and heading toward self-destruction-Maintaining positive police relations with all members of the community [is essential] without stigmatizing any group- The continued trust and cooperation of the Muslim community, tips to police from the family members and close acquaintances of those heading toward violence, alert citizens, and focused intelligence-collection efforts will remain essential components of the thus-far successful containment of domestic jihadist terrorism.\nIt is for this reason that we argue that racial profiling is the wrong way to go, as it will create animosity between authority figures and Muslim Americans. (Not to speak of the un-American nature of the tactic.)\n(12) Totally eradicating terrorism is an unrealistic goal. Terrorism is, and always has been, one of the day-to-day risks of living in the real world. However, this risk must be put into perspective. Over sixty times as many Americans die of peanut allergies per year than from acts of terrorism. An American is 250 times more likely to be struck by lightning than be killed by terrorism. As for the threat of jihadist terrorism in specific, not a single U.S. civilian has been killed since 9/11.\nThe exaggerated fear of terrorism only empowers terrorists, giving them the feeling that they are far more effective than they really are. The Times Square bombing is case in point: it was an amateurish plot that failed miserably, but it managed to succeed in evoking national hysteria.\nA calm public reaction is \u201can essential component of homeland defense.\u201d The report reads (emphasis is ours):\nBut prevention will not always work. More attempts will occur, and there will, on occasion, be bloodshed. In addition to traditional law enforcement, police intelligence collection, and community policing, public reaction is an essential component of homeland defense. Needless alarm, exaggerated portrayals of the terrorist threat, unrealistic expectations of a risk-free society, and unreasonable demands for absolute protection will only encourage terrorists\u2032 ambitions to make America fibrillate in fear and bankrupt itself with security-\nBin Laden would not have publicly attached himself to Abdulmutallab\u2032s failed bombing attempt unless he was persuaded that the young Nigerian had caused national upset-a tactical failure but a strategic success. As long as America\u2032s psychological vulnerability is on display, jihadists will find inspiration in the actions of individuals like Nidal Hasan and Umar Abdulmutallab. And more recruitment and terrorism will occur. Panic is the wrong message to send America\u2032s terrorist foes.\nAnti-Islam ideologues fan the flames of \u201cnational hysteria\u201d, and try to further exaggerate the threat of jihadism in order to turn the majoritarian group against an increasingly beleaguered Muslim American community. This generated Islamophobia serves the interests of Bin Ladin and co., who seek to radicalize Muslim Americans in order for them to wage war against their fellow countrymen. Discrimination against Muslims helps facilitate radicalism, and thus benefits jihadists. Islamophobia gives credence to the jihadist narrative, which revolves around Western injustice against the Muslim people. Beyond purely tactical considerations, bigotry is simply un-American and corrodes our society more than terrorism ever could.\nRAND\u2032s Official Summary\nWe have reproduced RAND\u2032s official summary below:\nWould-Be Warriors: Incidents of Jihadist Terrorist Radicalization in the United States Since September 11, 2001\nBetween September 11, 2001, and the end of 2009, a total of 46 cases of domestic radicalization and recruitment to jihadist terrorism were reported in the United States. In some of the cases, individuals living in the United States plotted to carry out terrorist attacks at home; some were accused of \u201cproviding material support to foreign terrorist organizations\u201d; and some left the United States to join jihadist organizations abroad. All these individuals can be called \u201chomegrown terrorists.\u201d\nForty-six cases of radicalization in a period of little more than eight years may seem significant, but in each case, an average of only three people were accused-and half of the cases, including some of the fully formulated plots to carry out terrorist attacks in the United States, involved only a single individual. Only 125 persons were identified in the 46 cases. Although the numbers are small, the 13\ncases in 2009 did indicate a marked increase in radicalization leading to criminal activity, up from an average of about four cases a year from 2002 to 2008. In 2009, there was also a marked increase in the number of individuals involved. Only 81 of the 125 persons identified were indicted for jihadist-related crimes between 2002 and 2008; in 2009 alone, 42 individuals were indicted. The remaining two individuals were indicted in January 2010 in connection with a plot uncovered in 2009.\nWho Are the Recruits?\nMost of America\u2032s homegrown terrorists are U.S. citizens. Information on national origin or ethnicity is available for 109 of the identified homegrown terrorists. The Arab and South Asian immigrant communities are statistically overrepresented in this small sample, but the number of recruits is still tiny. There are more than 3 million Muslims in the United States, and few more than 100 have joined jihad-about one out of every 30,000-suggesting an American Muslim population that remains hostile to jihadist ideology and its exhortations to violence. A mistrust of American Muslims by other Americans seems misplaced.\nMany of the jihadist recruits in the United States began their journey on the Internet, where they could readily find resonance and reinforcement of their own discontents and people who would legitimate and direct their anger. Some of the recruits gained experience on the streets. At least 23 have criminal records-some of them very long records-for charges including aggravated assault, armed robbery, and drug dealing. A good percentage of those arrested could be described as having the experience and skills that would make them dangerous. But what is most at issue here are intentions, not ability. The 46 cases demonstrate earnest intent. The individuals were ready to be terrorists. Their ideological commitment was manifest. Some were naive, some were adventurers, some were misguided. But many were no doubt sincere in their anger and determination, having made the ideological leap to armed jihad. They came into contact with U.S. authorities when they tried to act on their beliefs. They had, in the words of one prosecutor, \u201cjihadi hearts and jihadi minds,\u201d and juries convicted them on their intent.\nThe 1970s Saw Greater Terrorist Violence\nWhile radicalization and recruitment to jihadist terrorism are cause for continuing concern, the current threat must be kept in perspective. The volume of domestic terrorist activity was much greater in the 1970s than it is today. That decade saw 60 to 70 terrorist incidents, most of them bombings, on U.S. soil every year-a level of terrorist activity 15 to 20 times that seen in most of the years since 9/11, even counting foiled plots as incidents. And in the nine year period from 1970 to 1978, 72 people died in terrorist incidents, more than five times the number killed by jihadist terrorists in the United States in the almost nine years since 9/11.\nAmerica\u2032s perception of the terrorist threat today differs greatly from what it was 35 years ago. It is not the little bombs of the 1970s but fear of another event on the scale of 9/11 or of scenarios involving terrorist use of biological or nuclear weapons that drives current concerns.\nTraditional law enforcement, in which authorities attempt to identify and apprehend a perpetrator after a crime has been committed, is inadequate to deal with terrorists who are determined to cause many deaths and great destruction and who may not care whether they themselves survive. Public safety demands a more preventive approach-intervention before an attack occurs.\nAs long as radicalization and recruitment to terrorism remain a reality, domestic intelligence collection,\nalways a delicate mission in a democracy, will remain a necessary activity. Under appropriate controls, intelligence operations can disrupt terrorist recruiting, uncover terrorist plots, and discourage those who would turn to violence.\nAnd by preventing dramatic terrorist actions that inevitably create fear and alarm, intelligence operations can also prevent overreactions by the general public, allay unwarranted suspicions, and thereby protect vulnerable minorities (in this case, the American Muslim community) against official discrimination and even individual acts of revenge.\nMeanwhile, expanded efforts must be made through community policing and other means to work with members of the Muslim community. These efforts must entail working with the community actively and consistently to address issues of crime, fears of crime, the suspicions of authorities, and other community concerns. Relatives and friends are often more likely than the authorities to know when someone is turning dangerously radical and heading toward self-destruction. On occasion, relatives and friends have intervened. But will they trust the authorities enough to notify them when persuasion does not work? Citizen involvement is essential, but so is maintaining positive police relations with all members of the community without stigmatizing any group or privileging special interests.\nRecruitment Will Continue\nThe homegrown jihadist threat in America today consists of tiny conspiracies, lone gunmen, and one-off attacks. The continued trust and cooperation of the Muslim community, tips to police from the family members and close acquaintances of those heading toward violence, alert citizens, and focused intelligence-collection efforts will remain essential components of the thus-far successful containment of domestic jihadist terrorism.\nBut prevention will not always work. More attempts will occur, and there will, on occasion, be bloodshed. In addition to traditional law enforcement, police intelligence collection, and community policing, public reaction is an essential component of homeland defense. Needless alarm, exaggerated portrayals of the terrorist threat, unrealistic expectations of a risk-free society, and unreasonable demands for absolute protection will only encourage terrorists\u2032 ambitions to make America fibrillate in fear and bankrupt itself with security. As long as America\u2032s psychological vulnerability is on display, jihadists will find inspiration, and more recruitment and terrorism will occur. Panic is the wrong message to send America\u2032s terrorist foes.",

        "raw_content": "Danfoss Hosts Congressman Manzullo during Groundbreaking Ceremony for New VLT\u00ae Drives Facility\nOn August 12, 2011, Danfoss hosted Congressman Don Manzullo (R-IL), local officials and community leaders for a groundbreaking ceremony for the company's new logistics facility in Loves Park, IL - home to Danfoss' VLT\u00ae Drives division. Fueled by strong growth of Danfoss' high-powered, energy-efficient drives, the company will relocate its receiving, shipping and warehousing operations into this new facility, which will create additional manufacturing capacity at the current location.\nDuring his visit, Manzullo, who founded and serves as co-chairman of the House Manufacturing Caucus, also participated in a discussion with top Danfoss managers about how Danfoss VLT variable frequency drives (VFDs) are helping the environment by reducing energy consumption. He was also given a plant tour so he could learn more first-hand about Danfoss' manufacturing business in his Congressional district.\nIn application, VFDs present a great opportunity to save significant amounts of energy and reduce the impact on the environment by reducing the dependence on fossil fuels and the need to build power plants. VFDs can typically save 15 to 40 percent of energy required to operate a motor, depending on the installation; yet, 70 to 80 percent of new industrial electric motors globally do not have variable speed drives. There are more than 3.5 million Danfoss VLT variable speed drives installed worldwide that account for a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions of 33 million tons per year.\nAdditionally, clean energy technologies, like those manufactured by Danfoss VLT Drives, help to create sustainable jobs. The speakers during the groundbreaking ceremony expressed a similar idea, reinforcing the importance of the impact a company like Danfoss has on the local economy.\n\u201cWe are very pleased that Danfoss has chosen to keep this new warehouse facility here in Loves Park,\u201d commented Manzullo. \u201cOur region depends on the help of businesses like Danfoss to create jobs and impact the growth of our economy. It\u2019s been a great pleasure to be here today to see first-hand the large contributions to economy, energy efficiency and environment that a U.S. manufacturing facility is making worldwide.\u201d\nSpeakers at the ceremony included:\nCongressman Don Manzullo, U.S. House of Representatives \u2013 Illinois\nDarryl Lindberg, Mayor, City of Loves Park\nDave Holmgren, Director of Purchasing, Danfoss Power Electronics\nJanyce Fadden, President, Rockford Area Economic Development Council\nEinar Forsman, President, Rockford Chamber of Commerce\nScott Christiansen, Chairman, Winnebago County Board\nMark Goode, Principal, VentureOne Real Estate\nThe facility project is being led by design-build firm Meridian Design Build and developer VentureOne Real Estate, LLC. Construction on the new logistics building, which will add 100,000 square feet of facility space to the campus, is expected to be completed by November 1, 2011.\nThis is the second expansion at the Danfoss plant in two years, as the current facility was doubled in size (from 125,000 to 250,000 sq. ft.) in 2009.",

Shortly before the deadline, Princess Ubolratana Rajakanya announced that she would compete for the position of prime minister for the Thai Raksa Chart party in the March polls. The party is considered close to the Shinawatra family, whose member, Former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, was overthrown in a coup in May 2014. The head of the family is Thaksin Shinawatra, who has been living in exile for many years.\nOn the same evening, Ubolratana\u2019s brother, King Vajiralingkorn, declared that his sister\u2019s candidacy was invalid, immediately after which the Thai Raksa Chart Party annulled the sensational decision of the princess.\nUbolratana\u2019s announcement was controversial, because it threatened the political control of the country by the military government under prime minister and former general Prayuth Chan-Ocha: The constitution that was adopted by Thailand\u2019s citizens in a referendum in 2017, stipulates that the national assembly can suggest the new prime minister by simple majority. After that, the King only needs to appoint him.\nThwarting the strategy\nThis serves as a security net for the military. The national assembly has 750 seats altogether, including 250 senators and 500 members. The 500 members will be elected by the people in the end of March. The 250 senators will be determined by a committee appointed by the military government, meaning that military officials will participate in the polls with a lead of 250 seats to determine the new prime minister and the government. Together with the votes of pro-military parties, above all the Palang Pracharat party, there should be enough votes to get the most favored candidate from the military into office.",

        "title": "Welcome to Ward 5 Online: Ghost Stories Told At Armory Cafe",
        "raw_content": "Ghost Stories Told At Armory Cafe\nThe cafe at the Arts at the Armory held it's first Ghost Story reading on Thursday October 27th hosted by Jennifer Lawrence and emceed by Susan Fiedler. Below is the story I was asked to read. Thanks to Judy Neufeld for taking a photo of me!\nArmory Ghost\n(Gloucester, Massachusetts)\n\"Company G of the 8th regiment is troubled with a ghost. Just who the ghost is, and why he should haunt the armory, is a matter of speculation. It has been conjectured that it may be that it is a specter of some of the departed officer's decapitated by Col. Pew. At any rate the ghost is there, according to some; members of the company are ready to declare on oath that they have seen him.\nThis ghost displays considerable temerity. Besides the militia company, the police station and the police court are in the same building, and it is thought the spook takes much risk of being sent up if caught.\nThis ghost it is [professed] has been doing guard duty for more than a month. He has been plainly seen by Duncan at and the rear of the armory building, so veracious witnesses assert. He has been observed [fluttering] from window to window of the armory by those on the outside. In appearance he is said to be a white fellow, and he fades into nothingness from the waist down; the regulation ghost.\nHe is quite musical. In the armory there is a piano, which is always kept locked while not in use. But the specter evidently has a key, for the company guardsmen say that one of the diversions of the spook is to open the piano and furnish musical selections.\nA few evenings ago some of the officers and men were in one of the side rooms awaiting the arrival of Col. Pew, 'Get ready to salute the colonel!' said one of the officers as footsteps were heard, followed by a loud knock on the door. The officer in question sprang up and opened the door in order to admit his superior, and the men stood in line ready to salute.\nImagine the surprise when no one appeared at the door. The officer went into the corridor a distance, in order to ascertain the cause of the noise. When he returned the men say he had a frightened look, and his eyes were bulging from his head. He did not tell what he had seen. Three of the officers determined to investigate the matter. So they had themselves locked into the armory at night, and awaited the coming of the spook. He came on time, and so frightened did the men become that they burst the door in fright and fled from the building.\nIt is rumored that the company is trying to make the ghost walk up at city hall, that is, they would like an appropriation for a new armory.\nA large crowd, attracted by the knowledge which quickly spread that a watch was to be set for the ghost, gathered around the armory tonight and made much noise and comment concerning the matter.\nPromptly on time the figure of a man as described was seen by every one of the watchers to go by the windows as [usual], accompanied by a weird wind-rushing sound. All classes were represented in the crowd, and all saw it. Many are convinced that they have actually seen a ghost. No doubt it is some sort of physical phenomena, but just what cannot be determined. Those who believe in the ghost yarn think it somewhat singular that the spook should appear at just such a time, usually in the evening.\nIn this respect, that of early hours and crowded localities, this ghost is unlike the ordinary every day spook, he courts publicity. As described by a cool eyewitness the ghost had the appearance of a man in his shirt sleeves. First he appeared at one window, then at another, returning to the same window. Then the crowd made a break for the armory and the lights were lighted, but the ghost had disappeared. Here is a fine drama for the society of psychical research, whose specialty is ghost hunting.\"",

The 10-game Eurocup regular season will begin on October 15 and finish on December 17, with the best four of each group's six teams advancing. Games resume on January 6, with the opening of the Last 32 round, which consists eight groups of four and six more games for each team, ending February 11. The best two teams from each Last 32 group advance, this time to the Eurocup Eighthfinals, head-to-head two-game home-and-away series decided on aggregate score between March 4 and 11. Those winners advance to the quarterfinals under the same criteria, two-game home-and-away series between March 18 and 25. The quarterfinals winners advance to the semifinals between April 1 and 8, with the finalists to meet in a home-and-home two-game series between April 24 and 29 for the title and a place in the next season's Turkish Airlines Euroleague.

(Xinhua/Yin Bogu)\nWASHINGTON, Sept. 28 (Xinhua) -- China and the United States on Thursday vowed to push for renewal of their wide-ranging ties in scientific and technological cooperation, as part of efforts to advance social and people-to-people exchange between the two countries.\nThe agreement was reflected in an action plan of the first China-U.S. Social and People-to-people Dialogue, co-chaired here by Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong and U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.\nThe scientific and technological cooperation between the two partners dated back to 1979 when they signed the China-U.S. Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement (S&T Agreement), under which the two countries have since reached nearly 50 inter-agency agreements and jointly supported thousands of cooperative programs.\nThe cooperation in terms of science and technology have benefited researchers and governmental agencies of both countries as they have been able to share with each other research data, resources, equipment and expertise of their own.\nThe action plan said China and the United States are committed to concertedly pushing forward the renewal of the S&T Agreement, while strengthening joint scientific research, exploiting ways for province-state cooperation on technological innovation, and promoting dialogue and cooperation between scientific and technological personnel of both countries.\nBesides, the two countries, added the action plan, will conduct exchange and dialogue in terms of cooperation mechanism and policy between scientific and technological agencies, encourage businesses of both sides to cooperate in areas of innovation and entrepreneurship, and move forward cooperation between technology-driven think tanks.\nChina and the United States held their first Social and People-to-people Dialogue on Thursday in Washington D.C.

A group class can support a personal home practice, allow us a brief respite from the demands and stresses of our lives, and offer a social connection with others interested in yoga. Group classes include yoga poses, breathing practices, concepts from yoga philosophy, chanting, and meditation, depending on the needs of the group. Attention is given to appropriate modifications and options for students\u2019 comfort.\nWorkshops dedicate an extended period of time to allow in-depth work on a specific topic of interest to students or yoga teachers. A workshop may be a half day, a full day, weekend or longer. Dissemination of information as well as experiential practice supports a greater understanding of the topic. Time is always allotted for question and answer, and discussion. The many questions or insights that arise in our minds during a short group class can be explored and answered during this extended period of time. This allows for a deeper understanding of not only the practice, but also of ourselves.\nTopics for workshops can vary and may include: refining postures, breath work, meditation, use of sound or chant, or yoga philosophy.\nFrom time to time, we offer opportunities to learn more about the philosophy and concepts of yoga and how they apply to our lives.",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Russell Moore on Why the Devil Hates the Family: 'In Family, God is Picturing the Gospel'\nJWI468_RUSSELL_MOORE_AM_v1_HD1080_0_255\nFamily Playing\nYou know the saying, \"you can pick your friends, but not your family?\" Memories of family life can inspire spontaneous laughter while standing in line at the supermarket, bring you to tears, or both \u2013 all at once.\nFamily life can be tough at times, but Dr. Russell Moore says that's normal.\n\"I think the temptation is to somehow think that if we just love Jesus or if we're just good people then we're not going to have these difficult times that come with family and in reality that's never what Jesus promised us. He said to us that our lives within the family are about carrying the cross and so that means that every interaction that we have within a family is an opportunity to pour oneself out. To sacrifice oneself in service to others,\" he tells CBN News.\nDr. Moore is the president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission which serves as the public policy arm of the Southern Baptist Convention.\nIn his latest book, The Storm-Tossed Family: How the Cross Reshapes the Home, Moore says focusing on the cross will help prevent families from capsizing.\n\"What we see on the cross is through hurt and through vulnerability we see the glory of God,\" he says.\nOne of the reasons family life is such a challenge, he believes, is because it's under constant spiritual attack.\n\"It's because the marriage relationship, for instance, is designed after that picture of Christ and the Church and the relationship of a child to parents or a larger extended family is a picture of God who is Father to us Ephesians Chapter 3 says to us. So, of course, the spiritual forces, the principalities, and powers as the New Testament calls them would rail against that. They don't like the picture of that and so what you see happening with the family in every generation, in every age all the time is similar to what someone would see trying to take apart a Gospel track because that's what the family is,\" Moore says.\nDigital Demons\nIn this digitally connected era, families often feel their relationships have become unplugged and depression can set in when scrolling through seemingly perfect families on social media.\n\"You have people who think that somehow their entire worth is built on whether or not their family photos are 'Instagram-able' enough and whether or not their children succeed enough,\" Moore says.\nHowever, he says it's important to remember social media posts aren't a live camera into a person's family life; rather they're snapshots of the good moments.\n\"People aren't usually going to post on social media, 'Guess what? Aunt Flossie has another restraining order against her' or 'my child has been grounded again' or 'I'm afraid that my spouse and I are going to divorce,' people aren't going to do that. But sometimes when we see just the shiny presentation it can cause this kind of comparison and the sense is because I'm having difficulty it means that I'm not succeeding when the reality is some of the most Biblically grounded and thriving and flowering families think they're failing and they think they're failing because it's very difficult and they're facing all sorts of challenges,\" he continues.\nFind Support at Church\nMoore says his books typically grow out of the questions he's working through as a husband, father, and pastor and family issues, he says, are constant.\n\"Family is not just a biological accident. Family is picturing something. God is picturing in the family the fatherhood of God. He's picturing, in the family, the Gospel \u2013 the union of Christ and his Church, the newness of new birth \u2013 all of those things are pictured within the family structure.\"\nWe need to fight the trend and turn to the church rather than turning away, Moore writes.\nAlso, instead of dividing ourselves into groups like singles, young married couples, and seniors he suggests we need to rely on each other because we all face similar problems.\nTrump Goes on Offense in Defense of Kavanaugh, Ford Ex Says She Knew How to Beat Polygraph\u00bb\n\u00abSadie Robertson: Celebrate Religious Freedom with 'Bring Your Bible to School Day' Thursday",

I hope that you\u2019re getting at least some break this weekend.\nIn addition to all the chocolate, the Easter Bunny has brought free books to the world, and Cardio Session is available for free all Easter long weekend.\nIf you haven\u2019t had a chance to get hold of it yet, now\u2019s a good time.\nCardio Session Published\nI have finally managed to get another title out the door. As this is the first time that I am testing a new distribution method, it isn\u2019t going to be immediately available on the whole gamut of sites that my books are normally.\nThis time, I am enrolling new releases into KDP Select for the first 90 days of their release cycle, before rolling them out to the wider community. While sales are continuing to tick over, I am looking at other distribution options to maximise awareness of my books. Rest assured, they will be available across the normal range of sites in due course. It\u2019s just that, in the short term, I\u2019m looking at how KDP Select works.\nOn to the book, Cardio Session!\nIt\u2019s a great little read which is setting the stage for a larger release later in the year.\nThings are slowly beginning to get going again with my writing. I have received most of my proof-reading responses, and will be looking to have a release in the next fortnight.\nAs I slowly begin to get more time to focus on my writing, and overcome a head cold / flu, I am finding that my muse hasn\u2019t forgotten me, which is a wonderful discovery.\nAfter what I thought was going to be a slow March, particularly after the very slow interest in my books, things have begun to pick up again nicely in the last week, so even if books aren\u2019t coming out as often as I might want them, there\u2019s still growing awareness of my writing and my works.\nI have a fairly major advertising spend (for what I\u2019ve spent, to date) coming up soon, and I am really looking forward to how much interest that drives in my anthology from the end of last year.\nHere\u2019s to hopefully a very good couple of months coming up.\nThe Curse of the Time Poor\nSome days I find myself wishing that I had the time to devote to inaction and procrastination but, even while wishing those things, I am flat out getting things done.\nBeing chronically time poor is something that everyone should do their best to avoid. I have seen some wonderful talent waste away because people could not or would not make the time to nurture and grow their skill set. It\u2019s something that leads to mid-life crises, but that\u2019s not here yet.\nAt least I can now start to see the end of the major project that is taking time away from my writing. That positive is offset with the major burden that is the work that has to be done between now and then. Fixed timelines give great end points, but not when the work is stacking up against them.\nThe silver lining that I can see is that I am being promised a lot of time being left alone once the project is done, which means I can get back into my writing and make up for lost time.",

        "raw_content": "Teen Lit and Writing for Adults\nMarch 22, 2012 lyttleton 4 Comments\n\u201cWhen I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.\u201d\nI am so tragically unhip. This isn\u2019t exactly a newsflash, but it\u2019s weeks like this that I see just how out of step I am with everyone I know.\nIt is possible that the cave you live in is not a wifi hotspot (there\u2019s a homeless guy for that), in which case you might not have heard that this week, teen literature sensation The Hunger Games is appearing in movie theaters as the true first blockbuster of the year (sorry Tim Riggins).\nI eloquently posted the following on my Facebook (something that\u2019s surely totally pass\u00e9, only further proving how out of touch I am):\nAs someone who has never read a single Harry Potter, Twilight, Hunger Games or anything that could remotely be called \u2018teen lit\u2019 since I was, you know, a teen (and barely then, either), I must say this looks like the most interesting of the spate. It\u2019s sci-fi instead of fantasy, and the female protagonist seems like a positive role model for girls, instead of that limpid pool of twatification that is Bella.\nI could probably be talked into seeing this.\nOf course, the universal response to this post was, \u201cYou should read the books! LOLOMGSPLUGE!\u201d Or something like that.\nThough I have very little experience with teen lit, I have been led to understand that the genre has grown considerably in recent years and there are genuine works of merit within it (the Twilight books notwithstanding). I never read Harry Potter not because I have some major problem with teen fiction, but because they\u2019re fantasy books and I don\u2019t care about fantasy books.\nThat floats your boat? Super, have at it.\nI do have a passing interest in science fiction, at least when the science is emphasized, so The Hunger Games might be more up my alley, if, you know, I was still 16. Unless I\u2019m mistaken, though, this is science fiction of the \u2018Future Dystopia\u2019 type, and not of the speculative, map-out-where-we\u2019re-going sort. I\u2019m a nerd, I want my science fiction books to teach me science.\nWhich is all to say, the movie sound likes an enjoyable couple hours at the theater (with a heroine I\u2019d actually want my hypothetical future daughter to aspire to), but as a reading experience it would surely leave me dry. I\u2019ve been reading for a long time, I have a pretty solid grasp on what I enjoy.*\nI don\u2019t have a problem with teen literature. I don\u2019t really have a problem with adults reading teen lit, as part of a balanced reading diet. But, as someone who has worked in bookstores of all size and denomination (corporate, privately owned), I know this is rarely the case. When the Harry Potter craze was in full effect, a study found, contrary to optimistic reports, that teens weren\u2019t actually reading any more than before. They mostly just read the Harry Potter books and that was it (and some gave up when the books got too long).\nFrom experience, I can tell you this trend holds true for adults, too. Aside for the mile-long line of apologetic, grown-ass women buying every Twilight book with their eyes averted, for the most part these book Sensations draw out a bunch of non-readers who can feel relatively confident that these books won\u2019t require they ever use a dictionary.\nI know a lot of adults who never mention reading a book unless it features a wizard or a vampire. If you are shamed by that description because it hits too close to home, good. You should be ashamed. Don\u2019t call yourself a reader if you never read a book that challenges you. You\u2019re not a reader, you\u2019re a passive receptacle for childish things. Pick up some Cormac McCarthy, some Fyodor Dostoevsky, some Michael Chabon. Or, if you like a little more playfulness in your literature, read Mark Twain. He essentially created the modern young adult novel with The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and then grew the story up with The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, still one of the greatest American novels ever written.\nIf you\u2019re scared of jumping straight from Young Adult to Actual Adult, start with Salinger and work your way through all those books you skipped back in high school because, I mean, ugh, reading books for school is lame, bleehhh\u2026\nCovering my ass: Most of my friends are real readers (if not, I\u2019ve probably insulted them at some point and they\u2019ve subsequently blocked me from their newsfeed), so I\u2019m fairly confident that they\u2019re reading books other than Teen lit. I reiterate, as part of a healthy reading habit that mixes a variety of genres and styles, Teen Lit is a-ok by me.\nWriting For Adults\nPersonally, I don\u2019t read teen lit. The last book I read from that genre was The Perks of Being a Wallflower, a slight but enjoyable work of non-genre teenage literature that I read when I was 19 after my college best friend recommended it.\nI don\u2019t read teen lit because I don\u2019t write teen lit. I write adult literary fiction. I\u2019m not interested in dumbing down my fiction to appeal to a mass audience. This is not to say I\u2019m intentionally hoping to alienate anyone with my writing. Quite the contrary, I hope that I have a successful, well-received career as a writer, with a wide-ranging audience. But I\u2019m not going to write about werewolves or sappy teen love stories to get there.\n\u201cMy idea is always to reach my generation. The wise writer, I think, writes for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of ever afterward.\u201d \u2014 F. Scott Fitzgerald\nThis is sage advice from my favorite writer and I\u2019ve carried it next to my heart for a long time. I don\u2019t take his exultation to mean write for teen youth. People my age (the dreaded late 20s) are the youth of my generation, and so I hope to write words that speak to them. I refuse to write down to them so the dumbest among them will gobble up my books.\nI\u2019m a big believer in the notion that you put out what you take in, which is why I voraciously devour great adult fiction in the hopes that my writing will steal even a fraction of that genius. Sometimes I don\u2019t enjoy the book I\u2019m reading, sometimes I read a book and it\u2019s so dense that I must muddle through and finish it just to be done with it. That\u2019s okay. Reading should be both a pleasure and a mental work-out. If it\u2019s only the former and never the latter you\u2019re doing it wrong, as the internet would say (well, actually, they\u2019d say, \u2018Your doing it wrong\u2019).\nSo enjoy your teen lit, curl up with that pretty book after a long day at work and let yourself get enraptured in it so you can forget forget your deadlines and shithead boss. And then, tomorrow, change it up and read something with a little more heft.\nBut save your breath. I\u2019m not going to read your teen lit, and telling me it only takes a day to read isn\u2019t helping persuade me.\n*I\u2019m not \u2018open-minded\u2019 when it comes to literature. Because I\u2019m a writer, I am very judgmental of the work I read. When it comes to music, on the other hand, I have no talent in that art form and so I am far more willing to put aside prejudgments and be won over.\nArt, Film, Internet, literature, Philosophy, Quotes, Societyadult literary fiction, books, Fiction, Film, Harry Potter, literature, Mark Twain, movies, teen lit, The Hunger Games, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Twilight, Writing\n\u2190 \u2026like Romance\n4 thoughts on \u201cTeen Lit and Writing for Adults\u201d\nHG is more of a YA book, especially with the violence.\nI was never under the impression that there was a difference.

        "raw_content": "Procrastination and Excuses aka The Writing Update\nI\u2019ve been a real piece of shit when it comes to writing and I\u2019m starting to piss myself off. If you\u2019ve read all my posts, you\u2019re probably just as confused as I am about what I\u2019m writing and where it\u2019s all gone. So for a quick catch-up \u2014 Lets take a trip down memory lane.\nWhen I started this blog I was working on a Zombie Apocalypse feature. I got as far as laying out the basic structure and writing the first 15 or so pages before \u2014\nI got a new writing parter and immediately went to work on a thriller. We actually finished that screenplay. We never did re-writes and it\u2019s wallowing in 1st shitty draft mode somewhere on my computer. Will I go back to it someday? Who knows. I ended up moving to LA shortly after and the writing partner and I, understandably, went our separate ways, but \u2014\nBefore I moved to LA, my writing partner and I worked on a short together that actually got produced. It was an interesting learning experience and \u2014\nWhile working on this short we got produced, I was also starting to beat out a new screenplay about an alien. I think I got halfway through the first act before I really started getting lost. I don\u2019t really remember when I gave up on it\u2026 but I did. And shortly after \u2014\nI moved to LA! And then I immediately went back to work on the Zombie Apocalypse script. I pretty much flew through Act 1\u2026 and got lost again. Are we seeing a pattern here? But then \u2014\nI worked on a feature and realized I might have better luck writing a lower budget screenplay. It was a dark comedy and I fucking flew through the 1st Act again\u2026 and amazingly got through the first half of the second act. But then I hit the midpoint. More trouble. But I was committed. I worked on it off and on, and decided to set a goal for myself by aiming to have a decent draft done in time to submit to the Nicholl Fellowship. HAHA! No. Of course that didn\u2019t happen. So \u2014\nI missed that deadline and got wind of another competition that caught my interest. It was being held by the writers store. Basically I had to write the first 15 pages of a log-line provided to me. This was a really fun project. I didn\u2019t place in the top 10, but I had a lot of fun just writing those 15 pages. I really had to clean it up and make it the very best it could be. One of my first experiences doing rewrites and rewording. My script wasn\u2019t chosen for god knows what reason. But I still think it was some of the more polished work I\u2019ve done.\nThen shortly afterwards I took that year-long job in hell where I basically neglected everything in life. And even though I admitted it early this year\u2026 for the continuation of that job I still neglected writing. I\u2019ve been frustrated and burnt out. However I was dabbling in a pilot script from time to time. One I think I\u2019ve called The Dark Pilot. Up to this point everything I\u2019ve done has been spec features. But I\u2019ve realized I watch WAY more TV than movies. I\u2019ll save that topic for a future post, but basically the point of this post is \u2014\nI\u2019ve been pretty horrible at writing. As you can see, I\u2019ve completely shied away from writing posts about screenwriting\u2026 because what do I have to say about it? Why should any of you listen to what I have to say about writing if I can\u2019t even finish a fucking thing. They say the number 1 mistake a new writer makes is NOT WRITING. I make that mistake almost every day. But I do want to change.\nI quit that job in hell on a daytime TV show. I\u2019m back working in the world of scripted, and I think it\u2019s invigorated me. In the short two months I\u2019ve been back in scripted I have met people I could totally hand over a polished screenplay to. People who would read it if I asked. Not only that, but people in a place to actually do something about it. I\u2019ve been reading screenplays again, and I\u2019ve been writing.\nI\u2019m not going to say, \u201cThis is it! This is the energy I\u2019ve been looking for! This time I will finish something great!\u201d Because I don\u2019t want to lie to you, and I don\u2019t want to lie to myself. But I blog on a website titled 12ptCourier\u2026 and what is the point if I don\u2019t keep my readers appraised of my writing struggles.\nSo, if you\u2019re wondering. Here is the real update on all my writing projects.\nZombie Apocalypse \u2013 Started out as a feature. Then I tried to develop it into a web mini series. Last left off I was going to write and direct it myself and shoot it up in Michigan off a kick-starter campaign. Currently it\u2019s just a concept\u2026 and needs further thought.\nThriller \u2013 Still sitting in first draft mode on my computer. No current plans to revise.\nAlien Feature \u2013 1st Act finished. No current plans to continue.\nDark Comedy \u2013 1st and 2nd act finished. Having major problems figuring out how to end it. Currently sitting untouched for a few months. Still have plans to finish this one. Not working on it at the moment. Check back later.\nSci-Fi \u2013 First 15 pages done. No current plans to write the entire feature\u2026 but something I may come back to. Still think it\u2019s a bad ass concept.\nThe Dark Pilot \u2013 This is where my current energies are completely focused. I busted out 15 pages last night alone. The major character arcs for the entire season have been placed. The major beats for the pilot have been set. The plot points for the first three episodes have been roughly outlined. Current plans are to get a polished version of the pilot finished to send out for notes as soon as I can.\nSo in closing, if you\u2019re having trouble finishing something, know that you\u2019re not alone. But also know that there really aren\u2019t any excuses. You\u2019re just really bad at this. Like me. And the only thing we can do is accept it and strive to be better.\n3 Replies to \u201cProcrastination and Excuses aka The Writing Update\u201d\nI always tell my students there\u2019s no such thing as \u201cno time to write.\u201d We all have the same amount of hours in the day, and when we work soul-sucking jobs, especially in areas of a related field that don\u2019t fulfill us, it\u2019s hard.\nHey, when I worked 18 hour days on set, writing anyway was hard. When I worked 90 hours a week on Broadway, writing was hard. I was exhausted nearly all the time. But, first and foremost, I always defined myself as a writer, so I always made sure I wrote, at least four days a week. I tried for six, but if I made four, it was enough progress to show something for that exhaustion.\nBut writing is always a choice. And not writing is always a choice.\nAlso, unfinished projects drain creative energy and keep you from being able to focus on projects that might actually land you a viable gig.\nI suggest coming up with a temporary or false ending for the pieces you want to shelve for the moment, so that you can put them in stasis, but without the subconscious drain. That way, you can focus on the most viable and interesting projects right now.\nAs a full-time writer, who makes my living with my pen (screen), if I don\u2019t write, I don\u2019t eat and can\u2019t pay the bills. I\u2019m always juggling my own creative work with what people are paying me to write and/or edit. If I couldn\u2019t move between projects, I couldn\u2019t survive.\nI work on what I call my Priority Project first thing in the morning, do my first 1K of the day on that \u2014 before breakfast, before shower, before any of it.\nThen I switch between other people\u2019s projects \u2014 contracted articles, script coverage, script editing, other editing clients \u2014 depending on deadline and money. Best paid/tightest deadline gets top priority. That\u2019s the \u201cday job\u201d portion of the day.\nThen, I try to do another writing session on my preferred work later in the day or at night. But if I can\u2019t, because of additional work coming in or whatever, at least I always have that 1K (if it\u2019s a script, I try for 4-10 pages), no matter what else goes bonkers in the day, and no one can take it away from me (even when I know it needs massive rewrites). And those 1Ks add up.\nI make my writing students commit to a minimum of 1K/day for at least 5 days/week for the duration of our time together. Once they get into the habit of it, it takes about 1-2 hours.\nSometimes it means getting up earlier (my preferred way). Sometimes it means staying later.\nIt\u2019s tough at first, but once you get into the rhythm, you miss it if you skip a few days.\nBut the important thing is to create \u201cfinal scenes\u201d for projects you\u2019re putting aside, so you have the psychological freedom to move forward, in my own experience, and in my experience with my students.\n@devonellington \u2013 I agree. Put some type of closure on my idling projects so I can focus on what I really need to get done. Thanks for the advice!\nAlways happy if someone can learn from my mistakes! \ud83d\ude09 Believe me, I learned this the hard way. But my life is much easier now that I do it.\nPrevious PostPrevious Degrees of Doneness\nNext PostNext Best and Worst Movies of 2013 \u2013 October Issue",

        "raw_content": "SHE MAKES COMICS: Janelle Asselin on Being a Woman in Comics\nHome \u00bb SHE MAKES COMICS: Janelle Asselin on Being a Woman in Comics\nComics pro Janelle Asselin\u2019s in the news this week for all the wrong reasons. She took a reasonable stand and was wrongly and outrageously attacked for it.\nThe producers of the forthcoming documentary \u201cShe Makes Comics\u201d \u2014 Patrick Meaney and Marisa Stotter \u2014 recently interviewed her for 13th Dimension as part of our series chronicling the making of the film. Seemed like a good time to publish it, to show the idiot haters just who they\u2019re dealing with. Not that they\u2019d listen. But they should.\nShe Makes Comics: The first question is kind of typical, but I love hearing about people\u2019s first encounters with comics. How did you first get into the medium?\nJanelle Asselin: I blame my older brother, really. Growing up he was always making his own comics, and when he went away to college he left two comics in the house: Spider-Man: Hooky and Creepshow (both drawn by Bernie Wrightson, coincidentally). I really enjoyed both and was also totally obsessed with the \u201990s X-Men cartoon so when I saw comics on a newsstand at a gas station, I gave them a try. I was around 10 then and I got really intensely hooked for about a year. Growing up where I did, though, there weren\u2019t a lot of comic shops and when I did finally go into one it was an awkward and uncomfortable experience. I stopped reading comics from then until I was 19.\nTell us a bit about your career as an editor. How did you get your first gig?\nMy first editing gig was with Fangoria Comics as their assistant editor. It was a very part-time job that I did on nights and weekends but I really loved that crew. Like most things in comics I got pulled in because of the people I knew. A few years before that this guy Troy Brownfield had found me on MySpace because of mutual friends and asked me to write manga reviews for a column he did on Newsarama. I agreed and eventually he also asked me to join the Best Shots at Newsarama team which he created and ran for many years. When I started to look for editing work in comics it was, to put it lightly, a struggle. There are not a lot of editing jobs out there. Troy was working as the associate editor for Fangoria and at a con one year he introduced me to Scott Licina, the EIC. Then they brought me on as assistant, where I remained for about a year before getting the job at DC.\nWhat are some of your favorite projects that you edited?\nAs an assistant/associate I got to work on stuff that really I could\u2019ve only dreamed of as a fan like Neil Gaiman and Andy Kubert\u2019s Whatever Happened To The Caped Crusader? and a huge chunk of Grant Morrison\u2019s Batman work. That was really surreal and amazing. But the stuff that holds a special place in my heart is always the stuff that I was lead editor on, particularly Birds of Prey and Knight and Squire. When I found out DC was bringing back Birds of Prey as part of Brightest Day, I begged to be the editor. It had been the first DC book I\u2019d ever read, my gateway drug to the rest of the DCU, and Gail Simone was one of my favorite comics writers. It was an immensely exciting moment to be given that project.\nLater, the New 52 Birds of Prey with Duane Swierczynski and Jesus Saiz became really special to me on a different level. While there were certainly challenges with the New 52 and the book as I had loved it as a fan was not going to be around anymore, the team was amazingly collaborative and wonderful and I think that what they created was awesome. Unfortunately too much of that didn\u2019t exactly end up in the final product but the process of working with them was delightful. Finally, Knight and Squire is that project that was really my baby from start to finish. I pitched a very vague idea of it to my bosses with the idea of getting Paul Cornell to write it and was supported and encouraged to make it our super British corner of the DCU. Paul and artist Jimmy Broxton came in and knocked it out of the park, in my opinion. Of all the things I worked on at DC, that\u2019s the one that most reflects the original vision of the creators, I think.\nYou write a weekly column for Comics Alliance, Hire This Woman, where you profile up-and-coming women in the comics industry. What prompted you to start this project?\nSo, I was at DC when the \u201cBatgirl of San Diego\u201d was asking questions at panels about where the female creators were in the New 52 lineup, and I was also finishing up my masters thesis on selling comics to women. Both really made me think a lot about hiring practices. For a long time I\u2019d held the belief that if you were good enough, you\u2019d get hired. End of story. Working at DC taught me that isn\u2019t true. But it\u2019s not some grand conspiracy, not in the way I think a lot of people might think it is.\nThe Batgirl of San Diego, with writer Gail Simone. H/T: DCWomenKickingAss\nWhen you\u2019re an editor, especially an editor on monthly comic books where the company you work for owns all the characters in what it publishes, you have a different set of responsibilities than an editor who works on a less structured schedule or with creator-owned properties. The people you hire to work on books have to either be intensely reliable or immensely talented (preferably both, really). Hiring new talent is always a risk. If this person you\u2019re trying out doesn\u2019t hit deadlines or isn\u2019t as skilled as you thought they were based on samples, well, that\u2019s your fault in the eyes of the company. So when you need a fill-in to help a schedule out or you are testing out new talent on a short story, the ideal is to find people who have already proven their reliability and talent in some way. So far, this still seems like an equal playing field, right?\nThen consider the fact that you have approximately 30 minutes to try to look for someone before you are given a list of people who are already proven at your company but who are looking for work because they lost their regular monthly book or haven\u2019t had a regular gig in a while. Then add in the fact that historically your company has hired men so the creators being recommended to you are almost always male. And then add in the fact that FAR, FAR fewer women are putting their work in front of editors or pursuing these editors for work (I got one email from a woman looking for work in 3 years. I got at least one a day from male creators). Finally, add in the fact that too often, pushing for female creators over male gets you a side-eye from the powers that be. In that moment, it\u2019s just easier to hire a dude than spend hours you don\u2019t have digging around on the Internet for someone who might be appropriate for the job. I\u2019m not saying it\u2019s right. I\u2019m just saying it\u2019s easier.\nSo with all that said, the idea behind Hire This Woman was to get rid of those excuses. No comic company has the excuse of \u201cbut who should we hire?\u201d anymore, if they ever really did. I\u2019ve done 20+ features already. I have 80+ women on my list to get to next. Not all of them are going to be appropriate for every project, but that\u2019s kind of the point. There are a LOT of female creators out there that are ready for something bigger or different than what they\u2019ve done so far. I want the column to be a resource both for the publishers who are looking to have a more diverse freelancer pool and for the women who are ready to self-promote. There are thousands of dudes out there pushing for every possible job in comics. We have to make the point that there are also thousands of equally talented women that could be hired as well and take away the excuse that they\u2019re hard to find or untested.\nFound this on the CBR forums. Someone else has the same taste!\nWe also hear that you\u2019re writing a book about marketing comics women. What sorts of interesting things are you finding as you research for the book?\nWell I think the most consistently backed thing I\u2019m finding is that female consumers have more power and influence than male consumers, consistently. Women are generally more likely to not only tell friends about stuff they enjoyed but also buy things based on friends\u2019 recommendation. Women who are mothers influence the next generation of consumers, both male and female. Women are responsible for 85 percent of consumer purchases, they shop online more than men and they own a ridiculous amount of tech. Women read more than men and are more likely to read a diverse set of books from various genres than men. The idea of an industry like comics ignoring such a huge and VALUABLE demographic is insane.\nI\u2019ve also been reading a lot about the value or lack thereof in dividing products by gender. Certain things you can\u2019t really avoid making and marketing to a particular gender, like tampons. But a lot of the research I\u2019ve been reading points to selling certain things only to boys or only to girls limits their imagination at a young age. The idea that \u201ccomics are for boys\u201d or even \u201csuper heroes are for boys\u201d is a construct of the society we live in that literally has no worth and potentially damages both girls and boys. Those stereotypes are just reinforced as we get older. So there are adult men who want to keep those pesky women out of their comics clubhouse not for any real reason other than they were raised to think that blue and superheroes are for boys and pink and Barbie are for girls. And sadly there are women who think the same thing and so are not willing to give comics, not just superhero comics but ANY comics, a chance.\nWhen we interviewed you for our documentary, you talked a lot about the state of women in comics today. What are your thoughts on how women are faring in the industry and in the greater geek community?\nI think we\u2019ve hit a turning point. I really do. The community of women in comics has grown exponentially even since I first started going to conventions in 2004 (ugh that\u2019s a decade isn\u2019t it \u2026). It\u2019s so much easier to find a group of like-minded geek gals to talk to which is a wonderful feeling. It\u2019s not just that the numbers are growing either. There\u2019s a feeling of safety in numbers that I think has allowed a lot more women to come out about being sexually harassed or ill treated in the geek community, which is a great thing. The more people talk about that sort of thing the less it seems easy to get away with for the jerks who want to try it. So the more women that join our community and refuse to put up with that crap, the safer I think we can make it. Ideally, of course, it was already a safe community but we all know that\u2019s not the case.\nWe definitely still have a lot of room for improvement, of course. Publishers of all sizes need to hire more women not just behind-the-scenes but also as comic creators. They also need to publish books that don\u2019t just reinforce the bro-atmosphere further. Conventions need a more even split of female guests and need to make their harassment policies a priority. Retailers need to focus on having a safe and welcoming space for people of all types, male, female, nonbinary, straight, LGBTQ, white, people of color \u2014 everyone should be welcome in comics and comic shops are most people\u2019s first exposure to our world. Everyone needs to actually market to women instead of using marketing to horrify women away from our industry.\nI think there\u2019s a loud minority of male comics fans who want to complain about those awful feminazis who are trying to ruin their comics but at the end of the day, comics folks want our money even if they aren\u2019t quite there yet on how to make that happen. We are here, in larger numbers every day, waving our fistfuls of cash in the direction of comics. Eventually most if not all publishers, conventions, retailers, and creators will sort out how to be inclusive if it means making some extra cash, right?\nFair warning: This is a tough question. If you could spend the day with any comic book character, who would it be?\nOh that is tough. Argh. OK. So, 11 year old Janelle would say Rogue, hands down, because she\u2019s got the best stats on those X-Men trading cards I have and also she has an awesome Southern accent and Gambit. 22-year-old Janelle would say Black Canary because she\u2019s a serious badass. But I think to be perfectly honest and totally biased I\u2019m going to have to say Starling because she too likes to drink whiskey and shoot guns and frankly that sounds like a better day to me than training with (read: getting my ass kicked by) Black Canary or risking getting my powers stolen or put into a coma by Rogue.\nArt by Jesus Saiz.

        "raw_content": "Home Antelope Canyon\nAlexa and her pal Suzanne at the entrance to Lower Antelope\nI had heard about Antelope Canyon for years, and had been pulled into the sinuous and sensual photographs I\u2019d been coming across. In the midst of a turbulent year in 2005, I made one of those impetuous decisions: Well, I\u2019d just go. And like the results of most of those decisions of the heart and soul, it paid off. I had myself a magical experience.\nAntelope Canyon is a very otherworldly place. There are two canyons, Upper and Lower. The Upper Canyon \u201ctour\u201d proved to be a challenge to endure, both as a soul filling quest and as a photographer. Antelope, unfortunately, has been discovered, and is in fact old news to serious image seekers. Upper was filled with tourists and tripods, and was a bit of a disappointment, and I finally admitted some sort of defeat \u2013 or at the least, frustration.\nBut Lower Antelope\u2026 ah, magic indeed. We went there twice in the course of running around the Colorado Plateau in Northern Arizona. You can find Antelope Canyon on Navajo Tribal Land, near Page, just under the Arizona-Utah border. And don\u2019t be dissuaded by the fact of its discovery. It will still deliver the goods. It is a narrow slot canyon, only a quarter of a mile long, and it is entered by literally descending into a gash in the earth. Actually the commercialization of such a place has its benefits, as now you can enter and descend fairly easily, with the addition of some impressive ladders and stairways, rather than with ropes as used to be the case. I hear, however, that even the stairs give way to the floods that come and wreak havoc with the place, and have to be replaced periodically.\nFloods are the lifeblood, so to speak, of such places. Indeed it is the roiling waters careening through the sandstone that carve the incredible shapes and passageways into the surrendering soft layers. And they can also bring death, as witnessed by the unforgiving waters that crashed through in August 1997, taking the lives of 11 who were uninformed about such things, or whose leaders had carelessly failed to heed the weather many miles away. Their names are inscribed on a plaque near the entrance. Since then the entering of the canyon is much more regulated, and the far away weather respected.\nShould you want to go, Google Antelope Canyon and you\u2019ll find much information. For photography, the best time to capture the incredible light is a couple of hours on either side of high noon, since the sun needs to shine into the narrow slot to illuminate the walls. I don\u2019t believe you\u2019ll be disappointed, for it is a trip into to another world, filled with an aching beauty \u2013 a surreal landscape of the imagination \u2013 and a living pulse of life, and the fulfillment of dreams.",

        "raw_content": "The killings in Plateau State\nViolence in the University of Jos leading to deaths is bad enough. The search for a missing retired Major-General of the Nigerian Army may lead to flaring tempers. Nothing, however, can mitigate the wanton killing of 18 innocent Nigerians on Wednesday, 3rd October, by suspected Fulani herdsmen. Like similar attacks in the past, the gun-men descended on Ariri Village, Miango District of Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State and opened fire. Indeed, a community member, Lawrence Ishaku, revealed that a family of eight was wiped out in the attack. Four others were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds. Other casualties were recorded at different locations in the community.\nREAD ALSO: Fulani herdsmen kill 5 in Plateau villages\nAs though the above incidents were not enough, an early morning attack on nine villages in Barkin Ladi on October 6 is said to have claimed more than 20 lives. The distinguishing factor in this particular attack was the use of explosives by the attackers who were said to have come in a large group and opened fire at random. Barkin Ladi is a district that has been repeatedly attacked in the past, and the spokesman of the Special Task Force in the state, Salisu Mustapha, confirmed the incident and said officers have been mobilised to get to the area and that investigations have commenced. The exact identity of the attackers is a bit murky. Some eyewitnesses saw armed men dressed in bullet-proof vests and in army camouflage colours, suggesting that fake military men are probably out for mischief, a phenomenon that has bothered many Plateau State citizens in recent months. Indeed, the mayhem which took place in Jos on 28th September in which at least 10 persons were feared killed arose from gunmen who dressed like military men. That incident nearly inspired a breakdown of law and order in Jos, and inter-ethnic fights with the Beroms and the Miango Youths accusing the Fulani as the perpetrators.\nREAD ALSO: Jos crisis: NAF deploys helicopter, ISR aircraft, personnel in Plateau\nWe appreciate the swift action of the Federal Government which in reaction to the current state of insecurity had seen the Inspector General of Police replacing the state Commissioner of Police, Undie Adie, with Austin Agbonlahor. Indeed, the four most troublesome local government areas in terms of security \u2013 Jos North, Jos South, Riyom and Barkin Ladi \u2013 were excluded from the local government elections. We congratulate the new Police Commissioner for his new posting. We also wish him luck while urging him to end the virtual incessant killings in the state. The reaction of University of Jos students to the killing of two of their colleagues is predictable. But students must never resort to self-help which tends to worsen insecurity and make bad situations worse.\nWe sympathise with the Nigerian Army on the disappearance of Major-General Ibrahim Alkali and we join all patriotic Nigerians in support of a special resolution of the Senate that he be found. But we also appeal to the Army to search for their senior officer with an open mind and avoid mistreating innocent citizens. The Army is entitled to raise suspicions and follow every lead and investigate every possible clue. The Army investigators would do these things better if they have the support of the people.\nREAD ALSO: Insecurity: Buratai meets Army top brass on way forward\nThe frustration of Nigerians over the killings in recent years has been the inability of the Federal Government to find the killers and put them to trial. Thus within a week, dozens of Nigerians have been killed and many houses burnt down and not a single person has been arrested. Now the election season is upon us and insecurity has prevented local elections in four local government areas of the state. Government must ensure that the security of every Nigerian should be its priority.\nThe post The killings in Plateau State appeared first on The Sun Nigeria.\n\u2190 Mohammed Haruna on electoral process and violence\nCroatia and England play out goalless stalemate in empty stadium \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Sunday Spotlight: Dr. Ben Carson\nDr. Ben Carson discusses his recent remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast.\nTranscript for Sunday Spotlight: Dr. Ben Carson\nNow time for our sunday spotlight. This week shining brightly on dr. Ben carson, one of the top pediatric neurosurgeons in the country who made quite a splash with his recent appearance at the national prayer breakfast where with president obama at his side, he had some choice words on political correctness and even the flat tax. Listen. We've reached a point where people are afraid to actually talk about what they want to say because somebody might be offended. What about our taxation system? When I pick up my bible, you know what I see, I see the fairest individual in the universe, god, and he's giving us a system. It's called tithe. Now, we don't necessarily have to do a 10% but this principle. We're seeing \"the wall street journal\" had a lead editorial saying ben carson for president. Thank you for joining us. Well, thank you for having me. Typically prayer breakfast speeches don't get this kind of attention. You got more than 2 million views on youtube of this speech. What do you make of this reaction? Well, I make of it the fact that before I gave that talk, i prayed and asked god to give me wisdom what to say. What would resonate, what would be important and, you know, i don't think it was particularly political. Some people do. I know they do, but to be able to express an opinion about something that is problematic. You know, I'm a physician. I like to diagnose things, and, you know, I've diagnosed some pretty, pretty significant issues that I think a lot of people resonate with, and, you know, I've just been kind of overwhelmed by the response, particularly a lot of older americans who say they had given up on america, and, you know, what we really need is to be able to tone down all the rhetoric and be able to discuss things in a reasonable and rational way and come to conclusions rather than one side or the other side winning. If we can do that, I think there's real power in that. In your book, which came out more than a year ago, it was down quite a ways on amazon. Now it's number three on the amazon best-seller list, but I've got to tell you, I have never d of somebody talking about the flat tax at a prayer breakfast. That was a pretty interesting -- well, you know, I preferred to talk -- to refer to it as the proportional tax because, of course, you know, it comes from the concept of tithing. You know, if you make a gazillion dollars, you pay a gazillion dollars. If you make very little, you pay very little, but everybody contributes. What do you make of president obama as a leader? I think he's a very talented politician. That sounds like faint phrase. You obviously disagree with him. I mean, that was clear in your -- there are a number of policies that I don't believe lead to the growth of our nation and don't lead to the elevation of our nation, and, you know, what I would like to do -- i don't want to sit here and say all his policies are bad, but what I would like to see more often in this nation is an open and intelligent conversation. Not people just casting aspersions at each other. I mean it's unbelievable to me the way people act like third graders, and if somebody doesn't agree with them, they're this and they're that, and, you know, and it comes from both sides and it's so infantile and I don't know how we'll make progress. We're almost out of time. Before you go, \"the wall street journal\" ben carson for president, you're retiring as a surgeon this summer. What do you make of it? Are you going to get into politics? It's not my intention to do that, but as I always say in every part of my life, I'll leave that up to god. That sounded far from ruling it out. Thank you very much, dr. Ben carson. We appreciate your time. Thank you.

The life of this poor girl, Tess that is, could be graphed. There is a long slow elevation and then a precipitous drop followed by another slow elevation followed by another precipitous drop, etc., elevation and a final precipitous drop.

        "raw_content": "In my previous blogs I have been taking aim at the European Union and with further extension, the continent. As I have an opinion, I feel that there are certain rules that one needs to adhere to when stating a personal opinion. It is ok to cite different sources, as long as they pertains to what you are stating your opinion on. We live in a world nowadays of social media, likes, dislikes, filters and people that make millions off of the backs of maximising these trends. Instagram springs to mind. Individuals are able to mould future fashion trends and ideas, people are able to interact with one another, with relative ease. It seems that the world is at our finger tips. The decisions we make, we think are our own. This is so very far from reality. I wish our own thoughts were constructed of our own free volition. Truth has it, the human race is no more than a mindless flock of sheep. If this offends people, which it most probably will. I am not sorry. It is fact. We are influenced by outside factors that steer us into making a decision based on some algorithm hatched up by a group of marketing gurus. So, if we are able to be manipulated into wearing a specific item of clothing, or say, buying a specific brand we therefore certainly do not have the free will power to consciously come to a conclusion of what to believe to be right or wrong. Fundamentally this is being made for us.\nOne such avenue is that of the media. I live in the United Kingdom and sadly I have gone from adoring the birth place of my father, to that of gross discontent. This has been fuelled, overall, by the English media. It is unethical and shows a clear lack of humility when it comes to reporting on the true facts. Instead the major networks here lay out there prescriptivist ideology, wrap it up in an intricately woven news broadcast and boom. Next thing, they become the true instigators propagandist news.\nNo longer are these broadcast networks a reliable source of information. For years leading up to the fall of the left, it was very much seen as \u2018gospel\u2019, what mainstream media news was telling you. A turning point in ethical journalistic values gave way to globalist, unionist, elitists that use their corrupt positions of power to influence \u2018sell-out\u2019 mainstream media moguls. The power that these elitists have over the way that the public have blinkers on is very dangerous indeed. In my opinion, it is people like me and others that give their opinions on what is really going on are becoming a sort of concrete block for how the news should be viewed as. What is the point of only having one news source? We do not live in a unilateral state. Unfortunately, that is what the world is coming to.\nIf it wasn\u2019t for sovereign thinkers like Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Jordan Peterson the world would still be subdued in an infinite loop of idiocy. And here we go again. Mainstream media seek to destroy these sovereign thinkers because it is a direct threat to the cosy world that these elitists have been living in, they are able to use this tool of propagandist misinformation to influence how we view and see what they want us to view and see. People being upset with the President of the United States of America, that he is tackling the toxic issues that have plague the world for decades, viewing Elon Musk as a degenerate and pot smoker, all for having a joint. I don\u2019t condone that. But it surely does not make him a degenerate of any structural meaning of the word. My favourite is how the left go time after time after Jordan Peterson. I have watched many of his YouTubes videos and the way he systematically dismantles each and every reporter that tries to portray him as being unstable and belonging to the radical right, is a laugh in itself. The man is gar too intelligent to become a target of the lefts personal vendetta against him.\nSaying that. The media here in the UK will stop at nothing to grab a bite of a juicy story. Look at what happened to the loving Princess Diana. Members of the media, rather than helping to save the poor womans life. Took photos for news stories instead.\nThe media here has forgotten what it truly means to be independent and non-influential. At the end of the day a journalist should be impartial. Not a vassal for conceptualised prescriptivist views and opinions. The media should be seen as a fair and honest facilitator of news and current events. Not a laughing stock of industry.\nGoing after the mainstream media \u2013 TheHuski says:\n[\u2026] via Going after the mainstream media [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "amanda-alexander-dcps-interim-chancellor\nYou are here: American University College of Arts & Sciences News Amanda Alexander, DCPS Interim Chancellor\nAU Alumna Named Interim School Chancellor Amanda Alexander will serve as interim head of DC Public Schools\nBy Patty Housman | February 23, 2018\nAU alumna Amanda Alexander (PhD, education) has been named interim school chancellor for the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS). Alexander will replace Antwan Wilson, who resigned earlier this week amid allegations of circumventing the city's lottery process.\nAlexander was formerly the chief of schools for the District of Columbia Public Schools. She oversaw the city's elementary schools and supervised six instructional superintendents who managed and mentored the lower school principals. As chancellor, she will provide leadership for the entire district until a permanent chancellor is appointed.\n\"We are extremely excited and proud of Dr. Alexander,\" said Cheryl Holcomb-McCoy, dean of American University's School of Education. \"She has made significant contributions to DCPS, and I couldn't be more pleased with her new appointment as interim chancellor. We look forward to supporting her efforts and continuing our partnerships with DCPS under her leadership.\"\nA VETERAN EDUCATOR\nAlexander received a BA in English and a MEd in curriculum and instruction from Howard University, and an MSEd in educational leadership from Baruch College before receiving her PhD in education from American University.\nShe began her career as a kindergarten teacher at Walker-Jones Elementary School in DC. She later served as an assistant principal at PS 40 and PS 2 in New York City before returning to DC to serve as the principal at Bunker Hill and Ross Elementary Schools. Under her leadership, both schools saw double digit gains in literacy and mathematics. The successes at these schools led former Chancellor Michelle Rhee to charge Alexander with redesigning the structure for principal supervision and managing a cluster of elementary schools as an instructional superintendent. Alexander's school cluster significantly outperformed others in the district in student achievement outcomes, attendance, and teacher quality,\nFOCUS ON INSTRUCTIONAL AND CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT\nIn 2013, Alexander was chosen by former Chancellor Kaya Henderson to serve as deputy chief of schools. She was promoted to chief of elementary schools several years later. In this most recent role, she has been praised for her work in developing data-driven plans to improve teacher and student achievement.\nBy leveraging a grant from the Wallace Foundation, she provided extensive professional learning opportunities for instructional superintendents, which focused on the knowledge and skills necessary to support principals in an era of new rigorous standards for student learning. Alexander has also led literacy initiatives and a district-wide taskforce to identify and implement evidenced-based practices to improve student performance\u2014earning her the Reading Recovery Council of North America's 2018 Excellence in Literacy Leadership Award.\nAlexander steps into the role of interim chancellor during a difficult time for DCPS. A city-commissioned investigation released last month revealed that 1 in 3 graduates in 2017 missed too many classes or improperly took makeup classes to graduate. The report also uncovered system-wide pressure on teachers to graduate unqualified students so that graduation goals could be met.\nEducators are hopeful that Alexander will be a stabilizing force in DC schools. Alexander agrees. She told the Washington Post that she is focused primarily on leading the city to a smooth finish of the school year. \"I was surprised because it wasn't something I was expecting, but I am excited to make sure that we stay the course here,\" Alexander said in an interview on Wednesday. \"I am very capable of keeping things in the right direction.\"\nChance Encounter Opens Door for #AUSweethearts",

        "title": "Does Weather Affect Allergies? - America's Best Care Plus",
        "raw_content": "There are various factors that trigger and affect allergies. Environmental factors, in particular, play an important part in the severity of allergy reactions. This article contains an in-depth analysis of effects of weather on allergies.\nDuring the summer season, allergies may get triggered due to pollens released in abundance by grass and trees. This situation is particularly more common at the start of the season. Furthermore, allergic reactions can also be triggered due to weeds during the summer. In addition to that, air pollution generally rises in the summer season due to smog and other environmental factors. Thus, high amount of allergens and molds are found in the air and affect people who suffer from seasonal allergies.\nRainfall during summers also assists in the growth of mold as the amount of moisture in the air increases. However, on the positive side, rainfall makes the air pollen-free; thus, it can be termed as a blessing in disguise for people with pollen allergies.\nFor people with seasonal allergies, the spring season is the most difficult one for them as pollen production is in its full swing. They get released in large numbers from plants and trees. Furthermore, when the wind blows in the spring season, it helps the pollen to spread. Thus, more and more people get affected by these allergies. Wind can also cause hay fever because of pollens in it.\nIn the fall season, individuals with pollen allergies can breathe a sigh of relief as trees and plants release a reduced number of pollens. However, those who suffer from mold allergy, fall is a difficult season for them because the growth of molds is at its maximum during this time of the year particularly in areas that remain cold for the most part of the year.\nWinter season comes with its own set of allergies. Those people who have pollen allergy are at ease during this season since most of the people stay indoors. Moreover, trees and plants do not release pollens in excess quantity. However, some indoor allergens such as dust mites and pet dander come into action in winters. Cold air that blows in the winter season can severely affect people who suffer from allergic asthma.\nIn addition to the factors mentioned above, the severity of the weather and longevity of the season also affects the allergic reaction intensity. For example, due to global warming, summer seasons have prolonged in different parts of the world. This also changes the timing of trees pollination. In certain parts of the world, trees start to pollinate earlier than usual. As a result, the intensity of seasonal allergies also fluctuate.\nIn conclusion, it can be safely said that weather has a great impact on different allergies. If you are suffering from any such allergy, it is advised to follow precautionary measures before the change of season. It is important to know about the allergy you are suffering from in detail i.e. its symptoms, treatment options etc. so that the allergy effects can be alleviated.",

        "raw_content": "Amplification Inc. is pleased to welcome guest blogger, Hal Axler, General Manager for ArtServe.\nThere has always been a close relationship between marketing and the avant garde. Ultimately, what sets really good marketing apart \u2013 the core distinction \u2014 is the creative. Anyone can check the boxes, but it\u2019s the pursuit of creative that \u201ccuts through the clutter\u201d which brings a mutual respect, and not a small amount of cross-over between fine artists and advertising. After all, both vocations seek that elusive and very unique goal of expression that touches your brain and heart at the same time.\nThat\u2019s why ArtServe has been thrilled to be a partner in this season\u2019s Articulate programming, which helps to share the stories of some the world\u2019s most creative minds and foster an everyday appreciation for the arts.\nArtServe\u2019s mission to foster artistic and entrepreneurial growth goes hand in hand with the vision of Articulate which \u201cbelieves that art is for everyone, that creative expression is a basic human need, and that culture tells us who we are.\u201d From comments we have received we know that many of the artists that our part of the ArtServe family and other Artist\u2019s in the community have appreciated the unique programming and diversity of art and artist explored.\nFrom the work of Kenny Scharf whose art is featured at the local Young At Art Museum and the streets of Downtown Hollywood to the sound of the Havana Lyceum Orchestra, Articulate hit home for many of our South Florida partners. ArtServe is excited about being part of Season Four and the continued success of this program.\nOn behalf of ArtServe, we encourage you to keep on watching, learning and supporting art that builds a strong community.",

        "raw_content": "Beethoven \u2013 Piano Sonata No. 27 (Daniel Barenboim)\nDaniel Barenboim performs Ludwig van Beethoven\u2019s Piano Sonata No. 27 in E minor, Op. 90. Recorded live in Berlin in 2005.\nBeethoven composed the piece in the summer of 1814 (composer\u2019s late Middle period) and dedicated it to Prince Moritz von Lichnowsky (1771\u20131837), a faithful friend and benefactor who was also the dedicatee of the famous Eroica Variations (The Variations and Fugue for Piano in E\u266d major, Op. 35), a set of fifteen variations for solo piano composed by Beethoven in 1802. They are commonly referred to as the Eroica Variations because variations on the same theme were used as the finale of his Symphony No. 3 Eroica composed the following year.\nAlthough most of Beethoven\u2019s piano sonatas are cast in three or four movements, this piece consists of just two movements. Both are provided with performance instructions in German. A few of Beethoven\u2019s works of this period carried similar instructions in place of the traditional Italian tempo markings.\nMit Lebhaftigkeit und durchaus mit Empfindung und Ausdruck (\u201cWith liveliness and with feeling and expression throughout\u201d) The first movement, in E minor, is written in a 3/4 time. The restless character of the music has been noted by many commentators, including Donald Francis Tovey, who described the movement as one \u201cfull of passionate and lonely energy\u201d, and Charles Rosen, who wrote of the \u201cdespairing and impassioned\u201d mood. The movement is cast in sonata form in which the exposition is not repeated, and the development section is based almost entirely on the first subject.\nNicht zu geschwind und sehr singbar vorgetragen (\u201cNot too swiftly and conveyed in a singing manner\u201d) The second movement is a gentle sonata-rondo movement in E major (the tonic major) and a 2/4 time signature. Its Romantic character, with foreshadows Schubert\u2019s style in particular, has long been noted by numerous musicians and musicologists, e.g. American musicologist and pianist William Kinderman (born 1952), English musicologist, composer, organist, Beethoven scholar Barry Cooper (born 1949), and the American pianist and writer on music Charles Rosen (May 5, 1927 \u2013 December 9, 2012) \u2013 the latter considered the main melody to be \u201cexquisitely beautiful\u201d and an example of Beethoven\u2019s most accomplished melodies.\nEroica Variations on wikipedia\nBeethoven Piano Sonata No. 27Beethoven Piano SonatasDaniel BarenboimLudwig van Beethoven\nPrevious PostMozart \u2013 Symphony No. 21Next PostMozart \u2013 Piano Concerto No. 23 (Dejan Lazi\u0107)",

The LG Optimus 3D will have a glasses-free 3D display, as well as a dual-lens camera that can record 3D video.\nThe LG Optimus 3D will also be stepping up to the higher-performance end of the smartphone spectrum, packing a dual-core processor and multichannel RAM, according to an anonymous tipster at Phandroid. The new Optimus will support HDMI out and DLNA, and it appears to have a front-facing camera in addition to the rear 3D one.\n3D screens aren't exactly a feature that smartphone customers have been clamoring for, so if LG wants the Optimus 3D to get off the shelves at all, its other metrics will need to be up to par. The Optimus 3D's battery life in particular may prove to be a tripping point, as it has been for other glasses-free 3D devices. The dual-core processor isn't going to be much help there, either, but we'll reserve judgment for the official stats and a test run.",

        "raw_content": "Coming soon to a $250 phone near you: Qualcomm\u2019s Snapdragon 660 and 630 chips\n660 brings \"Kryo\" CPU cores to the midrange; both have better GPUs and modems.\nQualcomm's new Snapdragon 660 and 630.\nThe 660 is the more interesting of the two, thanks to a \"Kryo 260\" CPU core.\nThe 630 is more basic, but still gets a new modem, ISP, and some other improvements.\nBasic features of the 660.\nThis is pretty much all we know about Kryo 260, though I'd bet that L2 cache and clock speed aside it's not too different from Kryo 280.\nThe 630's CPU is still eight old, slow Cortex A53 cores, but they should get the job done.\n660 vs. the 653 it replaces.\nQuick Charge 4.0 is USB-C and USB-PD compliant.\nWe're just beginning to see phones with Qualcomm's latest and greatest Snapdragon 835 SoC in them, but these days you don't need to buy the best, fastest chip to get a decent phone. The new Snapdragon 660 and 630 are midrange chips that balance useful features with a lower price, and they'll both begin showing up in lower-end phones soon. The 660 and 630 are replacements for the Snapdragon 653 and 626, respectively, so when Qualcomm talks about speed boosts, these are the yardsticks it's measuring against.\nLet's start with the improvements shared by both chips. The 660 and 630 both include Qualcomm's X12 LTE modem, which is capable of download speeds of up to 600Mbps and upload speeds of up to 150Mbps. Both support Quick Charge 4.0, a new revision of Qualcomm's standard that's also compatible with the vanilla USB Power Delivery standard. Both support LPDDR4 memory instead of LPDDR3\u2014up to 1866MHz in the 660 and 1333MHz in the 630\u2014and both are built on a 14nm FinFET manufacturing process instead of a 28nm process. Both support USB-C, Bluetooth 5, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi, and both include a new Spectra 160 ISP that supports a range of camera improvements including better low-light photos and better video stabilization.\nEarly Snapdragon 835 benchmarks show mixed results from semi-custom design\nThe chips diverge from there. The 660 includes better CPU cores based on the \"Kryo 260\" architecture\u2014there are four \"performance\" cores running at 2.2GHz and four \"efficiency\" cores running at 1.8GHz. It also has an Adreno 512 GPU that's \"up to\" 30 percent faster than the Snapdragon 653's Adreno 510, though both support the same basic APIs and capabilities and the same maximum display resolution of 2560\u00d71600.\nQualcomm didn't go into many details about what separates the 630's Kryo 260 from the Snapdragon 835's Kryo 280, which is itself a customized version of ARM's Cortex A73 rather than an all-new CPU architecture. What we do know is that the Kryo 260 cores are a couple hundred MHz slower than the Kryo 280 cores and that the \"performance\" cores include just 1MB of L2 cache compared to 2MB in Kryo 280. The end result is a processor that's up to 20 percent faster than the 1.95GHz Cortex A72 cores and 1.44GHz Cortex A53 cores in the Snapdragon 653.\nQualcomm says the 630 should provide up to 10 percent better CPU performance than the 626, despite the fact that both use eight ARM Cortex A53 cores running at up to 2.2GHz; since the new chip is built on a newer manufacturing process, it's possible that the increase is coming from reduced throttling or increased memory bandwidth rather than any other improvements. The chip's Adreno 508 GPU promises 30 percent better GPU performance than the older Adreno 506, but its maximum display resolution stays at 1080p (more than good enough for midrange and budget phones, as we've seen with things like the Moto G5).\nThe Snapdragon 660 is available now, and devices that use it are expected to ship this quarter; the Snapdragon 630 will be available at the end of May, and devices are expected next quarter. Both chips are pin- and software-compatible, so it ought to be easy for OEMs to use them interchangeably in the same design to serve different parts of the midrange phone market.\nListing image by Qualcomm",

A concussion changes how the brain normally functions.\nConcussions can have serious and long-term health effects, and even a seemingly mild \"ding\" or a bump on the head can be serious.\nSigns and symptoms of concussion include headache, nausea, fatigue, confusion or memory problems, sleep disturbances, or mood changes. Symptoms are typically noticed right after the injury, but some might not be recognized until days or weeks later.\nIn some cases, athletes are slow to recover from a concussion. This is called post-concussive syndrome. Symptoms of post-concussive syndrome include:\nHeadaches or blurry vision.\nChanges in ability to think, concentrate, or remember.\nChanges in sleep patterns, such as not being able to sleep or sleeping all the time.\nChanges in personality such as becoming angry or anxious for no clear reason.\nLack of interest in usual activities.\nDizziness, lightheadedness, or unsteadiness that makes standing or walking difficult.\nIf you experience these symptoms, call your doctor.\nIn what sports are concussions most often reported?\nConcussions are common for both boys and girls in a wide variety of sports, including football, hockey, soccer, lacrosse and basketball.\nIn organized high school sports, concussions occur more often in competitive team sports, with football accounting for more than 60% of concussions. An estimated 10 percent of college players and 20 percent of high school players sustain brain injuries each season.\nFor high school females, the leading cause of sports concussion is soccer.\nFor ages 5-18, the five leading sports or recreational activities which account for concussions include: bicycling, football, basketball, playground activities and soccer.\nWhat is known about sports concussion risk and recovery?\nHigh school athletes\u2019 recovery times for a sports concussion are longer than college athletes\u2019 recovery times.\nHigh school athletes who sustain a concussion are more likely to sustain a second concussion and take longer to recover from concussions compared to professional athletes.\nLack of proper diagnosis and management of concussion may result in serious long-term consequences, or risk of coma or death.",

        "raw_content": "The Legal Side of Landlording\nAs real estate investors, our perfect world would be something like this:\nfind a completely renovated property that exactly fits our system and make an offer,\nsatisfy due diligence and remove conditions,\nplace our perfect tenant,\nand enjoy solid, positive cash flow.\nThat would be a perfect world, but real estate investing\u2014and life\u2014aren\u2019t perfect\u2026 anything but\u2026\nOver the last 40-plus years of being a lawyer, and after having handled approximately 25,000 transactions, I have discovered that every mortgage application, every tenancy, and every deal has its own wrinkles, crinkles, ups, and downs. However, there are many situations that keep coming up, time and time again, which raise basic questions that real estate investors need the answers to.\nHaving answers to those repetitive, recurring situations will help you move forward with your business of real estate. These answers will be valuable tools in your real estate toolbox, enabling you to quickly deal with those ever-present puzzles and questions that come up constantly in the world of real estate investing.\nSo, where are your answers coming from? The answer is, from a great understanding of The Basics.\nThe Basics recognizes three realities.\nReality # 1:\nNew real estate investors need to know the answers to classic, re-occurring questions.\nMost investors, new and veteran, employ basic buying and renting strategies for 80% of all purchases.\nRegular, ongoing discussion of basic examples is the best way to learn.\nWe are going to look at those situations that keep coming up and get into the details. This Tale from the Trenches is all about the legal side of landlording.\nThere is a lot more to successful landlording than just the legalities, but understanding your legal obligations is very important. Why? Because, as a landlord, you are governed by the laws of the legislative district where you own property. I will focus here on the Canadian province of Alberta.\nThere are a number of laws that affect being a landlord.\nThe most important pieces of legislation that you should be very familiar with are the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) and the Residential Tenancies Ministerial Regulation (Regulation). See other important regulations below. You can find these and other applicable laws on the Internet. You can view online, print, or order your own specific copies, but read and be ultra-familiar with these important laws.\nNext, Service Alberta, an arm of the Alberta Government provides a wealth of information online. One very helpful resource is the RTA Handbook. Here\u2019s what they say on the Service Alberta website (accessed April 12, 2016):\nThis Handbook is designed to explain the rights and responsibilities of all tenants, landlords, and agents involved in renting residential premises in Alberta under the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) and regulations:\nResidential Tenancies Exemption Regulation\nResidential Tenancies Ministerial Regulation\nResidential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service Regulation\nSecurity Deposit Interest Rate Regulation\nSubsidized Public Housing Regulation\nRTA Handbook \u2013 in black and white (pdf)\nDEFINITIONS (pdf)\nRESPONSIBILITIES OF LANDLORDS AND TENANTS (pdf)\nRESIDENTIAL TENANCY AGREEMENTS (pdf)\nINSPECTION REPORTS (pdf)\nSECURITY DEPOSIT (pdf)\nRESIDENTIAL TENANCY AGREEMENTS ~ FEES & CHARGES (pdf)\nLANDLORD\u2019S DISTRAINT (Distress) (pdf)\nRENT INCREASES (pdf)\nLANDLORD\u2019S RIGHT OF ENTRY (pdf)\nSECURITY \u2013 KEYS & LOCKS (pdf)\nTERMINATION OF A TENANCY (pdf)\nNORMAL WEAR & TEAR (pdf)\nABANDONED GOODS (pdf)\nEMERGING ISSUES (pdf)\nRESOURCES AND REFERRAL INFORMATION (pdf)\nA Checklist for Tenants (pdf)\nA Sample Cleaning List (pdf)\nRTA Offences (pdf)\nWhat a great way to get up to speed quickly!! My strong, strong suggestion is that you read the RTA Handbook from beginning to end. Then read the frequently asked questions (FAQ) on the Service Alberta website. Between the RTA, Regulation, RTA Handbook, and the FAQ, you will soon have a very good understanding of how landlording works from the legal side.\nwill make your life easier if you ever have problems as a landlord.\nYou just have to understand that if there is ever a problem and you are in Provincial Court or in front of the Residential Tenancies Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS), the Judge or Hearing Officer will listen to the facts, look at your paperwork, and apply the law. It\u2019s all there in the RTA and the Regulation, which is all explained in plain English in the RTA Handbook and the FAQ. The more exactly you comply with the law, the better your chance of having problems resolved in your favour will be.\nRTA Offences\nDon\u2019t obey the rules?? You could be warned, fined, or taken to Court. There are lots of offenses. My perception and anecdotal understanding is that charges are rarely laid except in very serious cases and even fines are relatively rare.\nEven though fines are rare, it doesn\u2019t mean they don\u2019t happen.\nHere are just three examples. Beside each offence is the maximum fine on conviction of the offence as well as the specified penalty for a violation ticket.\nFailing to provide a \u201cnotice of landlord\u201d: $5,000 & $150\nFailing to retain inspection records for at least three years after the termination of the tenancy or make them available to the Director for purposes of an inspection or investigation: $5,000 & $150\nFailing to provide a tenant or landlord with a key when the locks have been changed: $5,000 & $400\nAs I said, charges and fines are rare, but don\u2019t be the exception that proves the rule! Now, let\u2019s have some more information with thanks and a tip of the hat to the RTA Quick Reference Guide.\nThe RTA does not apply to:\nMobile home sites covered in the Mobile Home Sites Tenancies Act.\nBusiness premises with living premises attached and rented under a single agreement\nRooms in the living quarters of a landlord, if the landlord actually resides there\nAnd seven other situations\nFixed-term Tenancy Agreement Definition and Comments:\nis for a specific period of time, typically one year. It begins and ends on specific dates\ndoes not require either party to give notice to end the tenancy.\nAt the end of the fixed term the landlord and tenant may negotiate a new residential tenancy agreement. The new agreement could include a change in the rent amount and the conditions of the tenancy. The new agreement can be a new fixed term or can be changed to a periodic tenancy.\nPeriodic Tenancy Definition and Comments:\nhas a start date but not an end date\nA periodic tenancy renews or continues weekly, monthly or yearly without notice.\neither the landlord or tenant will end the agreement by giving notice\nis usually month-to-month\nImplied Periodic Tenancy:\na combination of a fixed term tenancy and a periodic tenancy\nThe Residential Tenancies Act (RTA), section 19, and the Residential Tenancies Ministerial Regulation section 4, speak to the topic of inspection reports. It is mandatory for landlords and tenants to complete both a move-in and move-out inspection report.\nThe following requirements apply to Inspection Reports:\nLandlords and tenants must inspect the residential premises within one week before or after a tenant moves in and within one week before or after a tenant moves out.\nThe premises should be vacant when the move-in and move-out inspections take place, unless the landlord and tenant agree otherwise.\nThe landlord and tenant must inspect the residential premises together. They must identify all damage such as scratches or burns and write it down on the inspection report.\nAnd six other comments\nSecurity Deposits (a.k.a. Damage deposits)\nThe Residential Tenancies Act (RTA), allows a landlord to ask a tenant to pay a security deposit (sometimes called a damage deposit). The deposit is held in a trust as a security for damage and cleaning costs, unpaid rent, and any other obligation of the tenant to the landlord.\nPurpose of a Security Deposit:\nTo cover the landlord\u2019s costs of repairing or replacing physical damage to premises.\nTo cover the costs of cleaning because of extraordinary or abnormal use. This does not include cleaning associated with normal wear and tear.\nTo cover any arrears of rental payments.\nAmount of Security Deposit:\nThe maximum amount a landlord can ask for as a security deposit is the equivalent of one month\u2019s rent at the time the tenancy starts.\nThe security deposit cannot be increased as rent increases.\nRefundable fees/charges are considered to be part of the security deposit. Therefore the total amount of the security deposit plus refundable fees cannot exceed one month\u2019s rent.\nAnd eight other comments\nThe Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) does not prohibit a landlord and a tenant from agreeing to non- refundable fees and charges that are in addition to the security deposit and rent. The following points apply to additional fees and charges:\nOnce a tenant agrees to an additional fee or charge, the tenant is obligated to pay the fees or charges when the circumstances giving rise to them occur.\nA refundable fee or charge is considered to be part of the security deposit.\nA non-refundable fee or charge is not subject to the security deposit restrictions.\nAnd five other comments\nAs you are getting started, it might seem like there is way too much information to figure out and really understand. But, it\u2019s all pretty straightforward and, just like any other job or skill, the more effort you put into understanding how landlording works, the better you will get at it.\nNow, let\u2019s get out of the theoretical and into the practical. Following is the case of Krause v. Bonin decided in the Provincial Court of Alberta. I have edited the case for easier reading, but if you want to read the full version, you can view it in the CanLII database. For research on other landlord and tenant issues in the CanLII database, just enter \u201cResidential Tenancies Act.\u201d There is lots of interesting reading,\nThis real case illustrates what happens when landlords or their property managers don\u2019t know the rules.\nIn the Provincial Court of Alberta\nPlaintiff Shelby Krause\nDefendants Robert Bonin and Kazacka Ltd.\nSummary of the facts: March 1, 2010 the tenant, Ms. Krause (\u2018the tenant\u201d) and her friend, Ms. Arnold, entered into a \u201cmonth to month\u201d residential tenancy agreement with the landlord, through Mr. Bonin, ( the property manager) for a unit in an apartment in Red Deer, Alberta. The rent was paid in a timely manner until July 1, 2010 when it was paid late. The rent due August 1, has not been paid.\nBeginning on August 1 at noon, Mr. Bonin\u2019s office repeatedly left messages on the tenant\u2019s cell phone and contacted her known friends and family instructing them to have her call. There was no response.\nOn August 6, Mr. Bonin attached a \u201ctwo week\u201d notice to the apartment door purporting to terminate the tenancy as of August 20 for non\u2011payment of rent. While not relevant for the purposes of this analysis, the notice was ineffective as it purported to require payment of administrative fees or penalties in addition to rent in order to nullify the notice (contrary to s. 29(2) of the Act), and did not properly calculate the required notice period, which is exclusive of the date of service and the date of expiry.\nOn August 9, another tenant complained of an odour coming from the suite. When Mr. Bonin attended, it appeared to him that no one had been in the apartment since August 6, as the previously posted notice remained in the doorjamb. He decided to enter to \u201ctake a look.\u201d He says he that what he observed led him to conclude that the tenant had abandoned the suite. This included various scattered items of furniture, insects, and some spoiled food on the counter and in the fridge. Mr. Bonin belatedly posted a 24-hour notice of his intention to enter the premises on the apartment door, and returned on August 10. On that day he had the locks changed and sent a letter to the tenant decreeing that as she had abandoned the suite, her personal property was being stored or disposed of, she was responsible for the associated cost, and threatening that criminal charges may result if she returned to the building or her apartment. The letter was sent to her mailbox at the apartment.\nAs it happens, Ms. Krause was pregnant with her first child. Around the first of August, she began having difficulties with the pregnancy and was staying at her mother\u2019s house. In June her roommate had moved out, leaving the responsibility for the rent in her hands. In early August her assistance cheque was not available on time to pay the rent. She went into early labour on August 6 and had her baby on August 9.\nAbout this time she learned of the notice by the landlord purporting to terminate the lease on August 20. She could not afford the rent and the various administrative penalties that were being demanded. She returned to her suite on August 10, to pick up some of her property including her baby things. She found the locks had been changed and she had no access to the apartment or her personal property.\nOn August 12th, Mr. Bonin had the tenant\u2019s property removed and the apartment cleaned. He disposed of any items he deemed a health hazard, and put the remainder into storage.\nOn August 25th, he met with the tenant and advised that in order to recover any of the remaining property she would have to pay the moving and storage costs, which he estimated at over $1,000. She did not agree with this demand, confirming in her letter of August 27 that she had not abandoned the suite.\nOn September 28, as the impasse had not been resolved, Mr. Bonin determined that the value of the items stored was under $2,000.00 and he disposed of them believing he had the authority to do so under s. 31 of the Act. Some items were taken to the landfill and some sold at what he decided was fair value to persons who assisted him with the cleaning of the apartment and removal of the property.\nIt should be noted that considerable effort was devoted by Mr. Bonin and his witnesses at trial to describe the dirty and unsanitary condition of the apartment. However the photographs taken by him did not show anything close to the conditions described. This seemed odd, as a landlord normally makes an effort to take photos that clearly depict the unsatisfactory condition or disorder of the premises. While I am satisfied that the apartment was not in a very sanitary or clean condition, when considered in light of the other findings in this case, one is left with the conclusion that this evidence was exaggerated.\nIssue #1. Upon electing to treat the tenancy at an end, did the landlord have the right to change the locks and retake possession of the apartment on August 10, 2010?\nMr. Bonin took the legal position on behalf of himself and the landlord that the tenant had abandoned the apartment, or at the very least that he had reasonable grounds to believe that to be the case, and that this allowed him to break into the apartment and dispose of her property.\nThe Residential Tenancies Act SA 2004 (\u201cthe Act\u201d) is a comprehensive statute outlining the rights as between landlords and tenants. A tenancy can only be terminated in accordance with the act. Any waiver or release by the tenant of the rights, benefits or protections of the Act is void (s. 3(1)).\nSection 27 of the Act codifies the landlords rights when the landlord believes that the tenant has abandoned the premises or otherwise repudiated the lease.\n27(1) If a tenant by abandonment of the residential premises or otherwise gives the landlord reasonable grounds to believe that the tenant has repudiated the residential tenancy agreement, the landlord may either\n(a) accept the repudiation as a termination of the tenancy, or\n(b) refuse to accept the repudiation and continue the tenancy.\n(2) In the case of a periodic tenancy, for the purposes of subsections (3) and (7), the tenant\u2019s acts of repudiation constitute a proper notice effective to terminate the tenancy on the earliest date that the tenant could have terminated the tenancy under this Act.\n(i) in the case of fixed term tenancy, until it would have expired had the landlord not accepted the repudiation, or\n(ii) in the case of a periodic tenancy, until the termination date.\nMr. Bonin changed the locks and removed Ms. Krause\u2019s property \u2011 acts which were consistent only with electing to terminate the lease. Upon an election to terminate the lease, s. 27(2) applies. Any acts of repudiation \u201c\u2026constitute notice effective to terminate the tenancy on the earliest date the tenant could have terminated the tenancy under this Act\u201d. The earliest the tenant could have terminated would have been with a 30 day notice under s. 8(1)(a). Section 8(1) (a) provides that a periodic monthly tenancy has to be terminated by the tenant on or before the first day of a tenancy month to be effective on the last day of the tenancy month. As Mr. Bonin claims to have become aware of acts of abandonment or repudiation after August 1, 2010, notice to terminate the tenancy would have been effective on October 1. In other words, when there are facts sufficient to constitute acts of repudiation (including abandonment), the Landlord is in the same position as if he were provided with a 30 day notice by the tenant under s. 8(1).\nOther than proceeding with the consent of the tenant, the Act provides for no right outside of a court order to terminate the lease or retake possession until the notice period in s. 27(2) expires. Mr. Bonin\u2019s actions were not consistent with the statute. His retaking of possession on behalf of the landlord was unlawful, in breach of the covenant for quiet enjoyment under s.16 and the prohibition concerning the changing of the locks in s.24.\nIn the vast majority of situations where the rent will be in arrears concurrent with the tenant vacating or abandoning the premises and the landlord can terminate and if necessary get an order for possession on an expedited basis using the 14 day notice provisions. The situation is very different if the landlord wishes to terminate solely on the belief the tenant has abandoned or repudiated the lease.\nMr. Bonin\u2019s entry for the limited purpose of dealing with the odour, any insect infestation, and to determine if there had been abandonment was justified under s. 23(2).\nIssue #2: Did the landlord have the right to remove the tenant\u2019s personal property, detain it and then dispose of it in accordance with s.31 of the Residential Tenancies Act?\nNo. Section 31 of the Act applies to abandoned goods. The tenancy here had not expired or been properly terminated. Further, Ms. Krause testified she had not abandoned the premises. Accordingly s. 31 does not provide any authorization for seizing her property.\nDamages: The main purpose of damages in cases of trespass to chattels is to put the person who suffered the loss into the same position, as much as possible, as she was in before the loss occurred. The onus is on the person suffering the loss to prove the value of the loss on a balance of probability.\nAll of the circumstances should be taken into account. The loss is usually determined by assessing \u201cactual value\u201d. This is not the same as replacement value or market value, but the pecuniary loss suffered by the claimant. In coming to a conclusion about actual value, evidence respecting replacement value less depreciation and market value is admissible, but is not conclusive. It is simply considered along with any other evidence.\nA second list of items prepared by Ms. Krause contained more items than the first list, more detailed descriptions and dollar values totalling $10,570.00. The evidence of Ms. Krause and Ms. Arnold was that when the court required a better accounting of the loss for trial purposes, they sat together and on a room by room basis, tried to recall what items were in the apartment. They looked up the cost of similar goods on a Wal-Mart website.\nI am satisfied that an honest effort was made to list the property lost. I am not satisfied that the second list contains an accurate representation of the quality of the items. This was not due to any intent to deceive, in my view, but is attributable to the witnesses not being familiar with the technical difficulties encountered when calculating actual value for the purpose of damages.\nIt was, however, apparent from the exhibit photos that the furniture in the apartment was of low end quality, some in need of repair, and was generally consistent with furniture and belongings which were second hand and of a type collected by a young person just starting out on their own.\nFurther with respect to the issue raised as to whether some items, such as clothing, were present on the property, I would accept the evidence of Ms.Krause and Ms. Arnold over that of Mr. Bonin and his witnesses. The removal of the tenant\u2019s property was conducted over a period of time when a number of people had access to the apartment. There was no impression gained from the evidence that the inventory by Mr. Bonin was carefully supervised.\nLooking at all of the evidence, I determine the loss in favour of Ms. Krause to be $4,000.00.\nIn addition I find that an award for non\u2011pecuniary general damages is appropriate considering the emotional effects and inconvenience suffered by Ms. Krause. There were serious and ongoing breaches of the Act, and disposal of virtually all of her worldly goods, including those she was relying on to take care of her newborn. Replacement of the various individual items has or will involve considerable time, effort and inconvenience. The award in this regard is $2,000.00.\nCounterclaim by the Landlord: Mr. Bonin submitted an invoice whereby the costs of the seizure and cleaning of the premises were calculated. It was apparent on cross examination that the invoice was not based on independent billing by third parties or records of actual time spent, but on Mr. Bonin\u2019s ruling of what was appropriate. One invoice appeared to be from an independent company, but was calculated and issued by Mr. Bonin. Many of the persons involved in the seizure or cleaning were paid in cash or in kind, with no accounting record. Administrative fees and fines were assessed, apparently with no reasoning behind their quantum other than Mr. Bonin\u2019s judgment of what he felt was fair. All in all, the amounts claimed were generally unverified, related to illegal or unauthorized activities, or constituted penalties for which relief from forfeiture would and does apply.\nWith respect to cleaning costs, while the apartment wasn\u2019t in pristine condition after the Landlord\u2019s agent retook possession, Ms. Krause was deprived the opportunity of cleaning the property by the Landlord\u2019s breach of the lease. Therefore the cleanup costs, other than the sum of $50.00 for the work required to deal with the rotting potatoes, are not established.\nThe total owing for damage deposit offset against the rent, and the allowed cleaning costs is $495.68 ($775\u201150\u2011229.32), in favour of Ms. Krause against the landlord.\nThe final total of the judgment in this matter is in favour of Ms. Krause as follows:\n\u2013 as against Kazacka and Bonin, jointly and severally, the sum of $6,000.00;\n\u2013 as against Kazacka only, $495.68.\nIn the event that any party wishes to speak to the issue of costs, they can bring the matter forward within 30 days for that purpose. Otherwise, Ms.Krause is entitled to a cost as against the Landlord and Mr. Bonin, jointly and severally, in the sum of $800.00, inclusive of all disbursements. While this exceeds the usual tariff, the trial was lengthy and involved.\nDated at the City of Red Deer, Alberta this 24th day of May, 2011.\nJ.D.

        "raw_content": "Experience Brazil's incredibly diverse wildlife & stunning natural beauty\nHome \u00bb Wildlife and Nature\nUntamed Amazon Superior Cruise\nThe Untamed Amazon was designed to offer a unique and remarkable experience whether cruising along the river or taking part in activities such as fishing and birdwatching. It is the very first vessel of its kind in Amazonia that uses 100% solar power generation for all electricity use.\nThe Pantanal is a vast expanse of wetlands which straddles the borders of Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia and is without question the best place to spot wild animals in the whole of South America and therefore the best place to spot wildlife and animals on a Brazil holiday. It is the world\u2019s largest freshwater wetland and one of the best places in the world for birdspotting.\nThe mighty Iguassu Falls are without doubt the most spectacular waterfalls in the world and an essential part of a Brazil holiday. The falls lie between Brazil and Argentina and flow from the Iguassu River. The falls consist of 275 separate waterfalls and are accessed from the town of Foz do Iguacu with regular flights. 80% of the falls sit within Argentinean territory are this has arguably the best views however a visit to both sides are a must.\nThink of Brazil and you think of the Amazon, the vast river which dissects the north of the country. The Amazon though is far more than just a river. It is a huge area of rainforest and waterways covering six of Brazil\u2019s states stretching from its mouth at the Atlantic at Belem all the way to the Peruvian, Colombian and Bolivian borders. A journey along the length of the Amazon is the stuff of adventurers, boat-hopping and spending a couple of weeks in a hammock.\nLencois Maranhenses National Park\nSay to most people you are going on holiday to Brazil and visiting Lencois Maranhenses National Park and 99.9% of people will say \u201cwhere?\u201d Located in eastern Maranhao, close to Sao Luis, it is a vast expanse of sand dunes separating land and sea. The dunes which rise up to 50 metres high stretch out in long flowing patterns and from the air look like giant bed sheets (lencois in Portuguese). This spectacular coastal park is relatively unknown outside of Brazil but is an incredible destination.\nPrior to the 1980\u2019s Bonito was an unheard of destination, a small town in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, which has slowly become the eco-tourism capital of Brazil. Its main attractions are natural, such as river springs with crystalline waters, beautiful waterfalls, caves, forests and a great diversity of fauna and flora.\nThe Chapada Diamantina National Park lies to the west of Salvador near to the small town of Lencois, a hours flight from Salvador. It is the highlight of inland Bahia and one of Brazil\u2019s best national parks. It is certainly a great place to go trekking in Brazil. The Chapada Diamantina National Park is made up of a number of escarpments dotted throughout the park, surrounded by forest, studded by caves and with an abundance of waterfalls.\nBirdwatching Brazil\nBrazil is home to over 1700 species of birds; over 200 of these are endemic to Brazil which is the highest number of any country in the world. There are some incredible destinations throughout the country to observe birdlife. For those without a specific interest in birding then the Pantanal and Iguassu Falls both offers great opportunities to see toucans and colourful parrots in close proximity.\nThe rarely known national park that is Chapada dos Veadeiros is a stunning destination and perfect for those trying to escape the tourist trail in an unspoilt area of nature.\nIt is also the brightest point on earth when seen from space due to the large deposits of quartz which are found in the ground here.\nWhale Watching Brazil\nYou don\u2019t immediately think of whale watching when you think of Brazil but the country makes for an excellent holiday destination to see these beautiful creatures in the world. The season runs from July to November and there are two primary locations to enjoy whale watching as part of your holiday to Brazil, which are Bahia and Santa Catarina. Within the Bahia lies the aptly named Whale Coast and the Abrolhos Archipelago, an area of extreme biological importance and the home, in the second half of the year, to shoals of Humpback whales.\nJalapao\nJalapao, lying in the state of Tocantins, is far off the tourist track but a destination of great beauty. A rarely visited area most easily accessed through the airport at Palmas, Jalapao is a vast area of wilderness mixing cerrado forest, waterfalls, table-top mountains, white-water rivers, small cabloco villages, sand dunes and freshwater springs.",

The civil rights movement made citizens realized the unfair treatment of women, for example, females had no rights to vote during government elections. The media initiated discussions about the unequal treatment of women and equal opportunity to fair employment.\nWomen's Liberation Progression\nThe women's liberation movement played a major role to the exposure of feminist issues in America. The media devoted concerns to the fair treatment of women, for instance, news coverage reported on women's rights and cultural magazines commented on the progress of female issues (Williams & McShane, 2010).\nThe civil rights and women's liberation movements played a significant role in condemning race and gender policies of the government. Minorities and feminist groups united to protest against unfair treatment through their messages of discriminatory practices in America. The United States Congress passed a constitutional amendment to guarantee that minorities and women would receive fair treatment and equal rights in America (Williams & McShane, 2010).\nConflict-Based Theories\nConflict-based theories rose from the social disorder of power struggles in relationships, for example, family, and work relationships (Williams & McShane, 2010). These social disorder issues lead to the focus on discussions about the gender equality in America.\nPower relationships exist as a part of everyday life. The family, and work environments involved people with the authority to make decisions and individuals to follow the decisions made at home or in the workplace. Power relationships will have differences according to the social classes of the culture; therefore morals and attitudes in life will vary among the role of the genders (Williams & McShane, 2010).\nGender-Based Theories\nFeminist issues became routine programs of study in many universities. The social sciences aided to concepts of the feminist theory, for instance, the oppression of women in a capitalistic economic system, violence against women at home and in the workplace (Williams & McShane, 2010).\nThe feminist issues focal point consists of research about women as offenders and victims in society (Williams & McShane, 2010). The research has incorporated topics about females, for example, the ratios of woman to men in correctional institutions, and woman as victims to domestic violence in society.\nWhen considering crime as a whole, females only make up about 20% of the criminality. Even though there is no sound reason why consideration should not be given to female behavior when studying crime (Williams, 2010).\nBy analyzing female criminal activity more closely criminologists can step away from the traditional theories that only focused on male behaviors and patterns. New studies will also allow researchers to develop gender sensitive interpretations of crimes and build a more solid feminist theory (Williams, 2010).\nPaternalism suggests that females need to be protected for their own good. This thought process has created a society that males are independent and females are dependent (Williams, 2010).\nChivalry implies that attitudes toward female offenders may account for differential processing in the criminal justice system. If during a basic law enforcement interaction police routinely chose not to arrest women, then female crime rates would appear to be quite low. However, if the system were to reduce chivalry action then there would be the misconception that female crimes are rising (Williams, 2010).\nSexism plays a major role because while females are less likely to be apprehended than males, they are more likely to be detained and institutionalized for status offenses (Williams, 2010).\nThe Gender-based theory evolved because their was a lack of information regarding women and criminal behavior. This interesting concept intrigued Freda Alder and Rita James Simon who are the mothers of this theory who examined women's perspective on female criminal behavior.\nThroughout history the role of women were seen as caretakers, mothers, seamstress, and less dominate to their male counterparts.\nDuring the woman's liberation movement women gained the rights in the work force and obtain greater freedoms. Through these freedoms females felt equal to their male counterparts and with this increase of freedom and confidence came an increase of violence perpetuated by women.\nAs women continue to be a dominate force in the workplace to opportunities that were not available years ago, the theory suggest that woman will partake in crimes similar to those of men. White-collar crimes such as \"fraud, embezzlement and grand larceny\" (McShane & Williams, 2010, p. 191, para. 4). Due to the opportunities woman face and the fact that women can use the gender to romance to sway their male partners and elude police, woman are becoming more dangerous than many men in the drug trafficking business.\nAlthough the women's liberation movement was a huge step forward for women, the opportunities to continue to climb the corporate ladder was non-existent. The difference in pay between men and woman showed a huge gap as men surpass women economically.\nWomen are generally underpaid and statistics how underemployed. Female offenders normally falls within these statics and they are labeled pin-collar ghetto. Jobs that are unrewarding and low in pay are usually offered to women (McShane & Williams, 2010). Women coming from dysfunctional homes are female offenders that see's no other opportunities for them an they turn to a life of crime.\nWoman suffering from pink-collar ghetto has a high arrest rate for property crime. Women living below the line of poverty were found to have been involved in more violent crimes including homicides, robbery, and aggravated assault.\nThe Formulation of a Research Proposal\nDeficit in the Theory of the Mind",

Being a scandal person, he faces many problems. To overcome these problems, he goes to live in the countryside so that the issue and the problems caused can cool down. The countryside seems to be an entirely different area for the professor. The Eastern Cape was still affected by the horrors of Apartheid. This was the racism and conflict caused in South Africa at that time. The author himself being a South African could describe the effects of the travesty in the best way..\nThe protagonist David Lurie is a very well carved character. Despite the fact that he is not the narrator, we tend to visualise the things from his perspective and we are able to relate to his story. Apart from that, the professor is the soul of the novel, and he brings about the charm in this story. He is shown to be growing old and having some romantic stance. Other various incidents bring humour, liveliness and charm to the story. In the end, David Lurie becomes gloomy, disheartened and depressed. However, despite all the changes and differences, he is the most significant and well-developed character of this novel.\nThe time in the countryside was very striking and some questions, which can be asked, will be related mostly to the events which took place in Africa. It was these incidents that develop the setting of the story and help to relate to the audience. Another question which is very significant is why the author chose such a setting for the story.\nConstructionism, Learning by Design, and Project Based Learning\nLetter to Ms. Hebber",

This Universal mind is a radiant force and is also known as a Universal Guru within. When all sit together at the same time even in different parts of the world, they connect to the Universal Guru mind and generate a strong field, like so many magnets being joined together and forming a much stronger magnet; the strength of each then equals the combined strength of all. Thus it is when we join together in meditation, and together enter the Guru-mind's Field. On certain days of the year the Wave of Beauty and the Wave of Bliss flows very strong. These are the sacred days. I have set special times on all Full Moon Days in the coming months to sit in meditation with you. Please join me at the time.

He also suffered a head injury in Week 8 but was cleared from the concussion protocol before missing another game.\nDavis will hope the latest injury doesn't cause him to miss any more time.\nWhen healthy, he has proved to be one of the league's top cornerbacks. He was selected to the Pro Bowl in each of the last two seasons and is usually tasked with taking on an opponent's best receiver. This puts a lot of pressure on the rest of the defense when he is not on the field.\nPatrick Robinson, who has dealt with his own injuries this season, will likely take on a bigger role in the secondary. Darius Butler and Rashaan Melvin will also have to step up with Davis unavailable. Frankie Williams could get some extra snaps as well.\nWhile there is some experience in this group, an already struggling pass defense could be in trouble if Davis is forced to miss an extended period of time.",

        "raw_content": "Home\u2192Articles\u2192Culture\u2192Rethinking Welfare: A Road to Hell or Prosperity?\n\u2190 20 Unheeded Warnings in Washington\u2019s Farewell Address\nInternet Conventions Bypass Party Politics \u2192\nA portrayal of welfare as the Road to Hell\nWelfare is an important topic that has become divisive in Western politics. In the name of compassion, liberals are supporting the need for social welfare. However, many of the welfare programs they have created have encouraged social dependency and family breakdown, undermining the long-term sustainability of society. Conservatives have reacted with attempts to defund these programs, but they often sound harsh and uncompassionate when they advocate leaving the problems to voluntarism.\nIn the nineteenth century, before the development of public poor houses and welfare programs, many people who were unchurched received no help from the churches. Immigrants flooding through Ellis Island and concentrating in poor ethnic neighborhoods were too large in number for the churches in established communities to care for. Social compassion demanded that something be done to help these people in need.The problem is that a system developed that became a road to hell paved with good intentions.\nThe real question is how to provide welfare in a way that promotes growth and maturity of the recipients rather than social dependency. When the government pays women to have out-of-wedlock children, you get more out-of-wedlock children. Statistically, these children enter the world with less opportunity for success. When you provide subsidized food and housing adequate for a subsistence lifestyle, you get more people living a subsistence lifestyle, and the government buys a growing underclass that costs more to support each year. If you pay bureaucrats based on the headcount of the number of people in a welfare program, you motivate them to keep more people on welfare. These are perverse incentives structured into programs rooted originally in compassion: it is just poorly directed compassion, the type that paves a road to hell with good intentions.\nHistorically churches and voluntary organizations have had a much better track record of getting people out of dependency and back on their feet than governments. They are motivated out of love for a person and want to see them succeed. The problem is that they have not been able to care for everyone. On the other hand, government programs that attempt to care for everyone have been impersonal, expensive, and have fostered dependency and a growing welfare class, including a class of dependent bureaucrats that manage the programs. We should think about other systems of welfare. Some ancient temples serve as examples that can stimulate new thoughts about how our present systems can provide welfare to all that is less expensive and serves the purpose of helping people become self-sufficient.\nThe Babylonians had a system that existed over 1,000 years, much longer than our experimental Western systems. Babylonian temples were not simply places of pagan religious worship. They were surrounded by significant areas of land that could be farmed collectively by refugees, widows, and abandoned children who would find safe haven on temple grounds. Those who could work provided food and housing for all, and those who could not might beg for alms. Basket weaving, rug-making, and pottery might be crafts learned by transients who could acquire a skill while getting an income from sales for the temple, or for themselves after they left. Temples also served as hospice for those dying and without family. Living in these communes was not so desirable that people wanted to stay there, but it was also a system that kept people from becoming vagrants or dying in the streets. And, it was motivation to re-enter society as a responsible citizen.\nThe Babylonian system did not promote out-of-wedlock births, it did not encourage breakdown of regular families, and it did not drain the country\u2019s coffers\u2014although the kings often made sizable contributions for land and building maintenance. Today, the issues of separation of church and state might be brought up as a reason not to fund such enterprises, as what we would call religion played a role in the temples to promote the moral behavior necessary for those on the temple land to live peacefully together.\nIf you examine this portrayal of the Babylonian welfare system from the standpoint of economic motivation, it seems far superior to welfare state handouts that end up causing family breakdown, welfare dependency, ghettos that turn to rioting, and ultimately government bankruptcy. This system could also be just in that it did not deny the needy based on race, religion, or ethnicity.\nIt is not simply the economic weight of government bureaucracy that the welfare system has increased, but the increase of taxes to support it has been driving out the businesses that traditionally fueled the economy, creating a two-pronged economic collapse.\nA system of compassion with much better incentives needs to be developed for modern society than what we presently have in the West. While modern society differs from the agrarian society of ancient Babylon, we should examine the incentives of the Babylonian system. It was a form of welfare for work, for those who could work, yet it was a safety net for those who could not. It created a type of extended family among people not biologically related. The standard of living was strict and more like monastic life; it was not an environment that would promote an underclass with second and third generation welfare dependency. It was not a system that allowed the idle behavior that leads to the formation of gangs and criminality. It was a system that helped those who want to get out of it.\nOne can imagine that graduates of such a temple system, like those who complete Alcoholics Anonymous and alumni of colleges today, would be inclined to provide financial support when they get on their own feet.\nCreating a public welfare system along these lines might be difficult in a spoiled society, addicted to deficit spending. Our culture has trained welfare recipients to be happy to take subsistence money without work. And, we have generated welfare bureaucracies that are equally dependent and fearful to change. Some policymakers will argue that new programs will only be able to emerge after the collapse of the present social system. But, such a collapse based on our fear of change could lead to untold suffering and death. However, the creation of such public welfare communities would be a liberal-conservative compromise that would lead to a long-term reduction in the size of the welfare state and the expenses that lead to government bankruptcy.\nFurther, the reduction of corporate taxes levied to prop up these current unsustainable welfare programs, would lead to the return to the US of over a trillion dollars of corporate capital parked overseas. This could lead to the formation of jobs available to those who now seem perpetually stuck in a jobless society, even when they are capable of working.\nPosted in Articles, Culture, Economics, Government\tpermalink\nRethinking Welfare: A Road to Hell or Prosperity? \u2014 7 Comments\nRobert Yee on August 17, 2011 at 3:03 pm said:\nThe moral measure of a developed society is how its people care for the\norphans, widows, sickly, and disenfranchised. Welfare is an ethical, economic and mental health issue. For many reasons, pressing human needs often times exceed the available resources for care. Unavoidably, triage has to be performed. Thus, ethical and economic dilemma occur. Who can stand in the position to make these kinds of decisions ? Many single parent families need supplementary care as the result of poor life choices and irresponsible actions. Many people on welfare suffer from mental illnesses, substance abuse or other physical disabilities. Many people move from the welfare rolls to incarceration. The growing economic burden of caring for people who are in these categories is reason for deep social and political concern. It is a problem that requires a systemic solution that includes expertise and leadership from business, educational, legal, politcal and religious sectors. A remedial policy would require political and legal authority; but, it would be administered on the subsidiary level and local community levels. It would tap the experience of the wisest and senior members of the community to make the fine judgement calls regarding the managed care provided.\nNasreen Akhtar on August 18, 2011 at 3:52 am said:\nIt is a thought-provoking and an exclusive piece. Those who believe that the present system should be replaced only after if it has destroyed are following the Derrida\u2019s philosophy of \u2018destruction.\u2019 A welfare state has been facilitating its people in all times and now what we find is that the concept of welfare state has almost been diminished.\nOnly rule of law is not important now the main vital thing is bread and butter. Even security has become less important. However, the security threat is coming from economically weak or poor \u201cstate and individual.\u201d It seems good governance has become international phenomenon. In the past, no matter what the system of government, was there was a strong check on the institutions. We hardly see corrupt institutions rather we find corrupt individuals. Now, we see both individual and institutions have become corrupt. Both have failed to deliver their promises.\nSo, people\u2019s life is not going toward heaven rather it is becoming hell. Recently, an Indian old man has initiated move against the corrupt and corruption and many people are supporting him. The time has come that people should wake up for their rights. They have to think for the collective interest instead of individual\u2019s gain.\nAlan Jessen on August 19, 2011 at 9:27 pm said:\nI\u2019ve long thought this to be a model for the future: it nurtures (or could if designed properly) a humane life where skills are developed, spiritual growth can take place and self-respect is a natural outcome. Land and labor teach the simple truths that build internal strength: patience and humility. There is no harvest without proper planting and cultivation. One thing that America has in abundance is land.\nIn the same vein, look what happens when bureaucratic and regulatory laws are applied without discretion. I know of an organization that cares for the mentally and physically challenged. They have a nice campus setting and numerous apple trees on the grounds. They used to harvest the apples and sell them or make pies and apple butter for the community to raise funds. Recently this practice has been stopped because of liability issues and onerous FDA rules. To pursue these common sense solutions, we would need release from such rules.\nGordon \u2013 which party should champion these ideas?\nGordon Anderson on August 23, 2011 at 3:56 pm said:\nAlan, I have received favorable replies from common sense people of both parties. The problem is that the special interests that control the two parties will likely reject such a plan. I would suggest it be made part of an internet citizen\u2019s platform. See my article: https://blog.ganderson.us/2011/08/internet-conventions-bypass-party-politics/\nIt would be interesting to think of rural organic farms, rather than inner city ghettoes, as a place where welfare recipients would go. Living on collective farms, perhaps like the Shakers did, would be an interesting twist on Obama\u2019s socialism\u2013for the needy only. Having a form of socialism for a second line of defense rather than viewing as the main economic engine might be more practical. We know from experiences in Russia and China that most people are motivated to throw off socialism in the manner that children want to leave their parent\u2019s home when they grow up, and people in impoverished societies want to move to \u201ca land of opportunity.\u201d Leaving the main economy a land of opportunity, the government could set up alternatives for subsistence in collective farms, where profits from the farms would pay the wage of the supervisors, everyone would have food to eat and chores to do, and a bed to lay in. The government would supply the land, and contribute toward the buildings. (You might even create a few construction jobs).\nI believe there was some effort to subsidize some collective farms in the US under Franklin Roosevelt\u2019s experiments with socialism, but they were set up to compete with private farms rather than be a location for welfare services. They did not fare well in their attempt to compete with private farming.\nJohn White on August 20, 2011 at 11:28 pm said:\nThe U.S. Constitution says in its Preamble that \u201cwe the people\u201d have written the Constitution with certain objectives in mind. One is to promote the general welfare.\nThat does not mean the federal government must provide general welfare. Promoting is different from providing. Our Founders wanted freedom from government, not dependence on government. They\u2019d seen the danger of absolute power, up close and personal, and rejected that as a way of life for their new nation. The Constitution was not intended to govern the people; it was intended to govern the government.\nThere are two primary aspects to any nation: the society and the government. In America, the society long preceded the federal government set up by the Constitution. Our society was based on the highest, most universal value: freedom. Our federal government was based on restraint of power so that it could not infringe on the freedom of we the people.\nOver the last century, America has drifted farther and farther from its constitutional moorings and fundamental principles of society. One aspect of that has been the rise of the welfare state and the development of a culture of dependence. However well intended the programs which initiated it were\u2014and we can identify Social Security under Franklin Roosevelt and the War on Poverty under Lyndon Johnson as two notable examples\u2014the unforeseen long-term effects have been the degrading of American society as it declines in civility, morality and patriotism.\nIf you give a handout, people will keep their hands out. The creation and expansion of the federal welfare system has led directly\u2014I said directly\u2014to the destruction of the inner cities, where minorities have been by far the primary recipients of government handouts. The welfare system has driven the male out of the home and family, and has encouraged the female to have more babies in order to receive a larger welfare check. With the father driven from the home by welfare regulations, children\u2014especially boys\u2014grow up without a two-parent, marriage based family. The boys grow up in the streets and get their socialization from gangs. The girls grow up to have babies and please the boys. In the process, much is lost such as respect for the value of education, the work ethic, respect for duly constituted authority such as police, teachers and clergy, community service, the obligation of citizens to participate in their government by voting, and even simple public decorum.\nTo provide for the general welfare means to encourage people to take responsibility for their lives because in a self-governing society such as ours, the first level of government is the home. That is were children learn the principles of self-government, long before they learn in school about the structure and operation of municipal, state and federal government. The home is where children learn self-control, morality, courtesy, respect for their elders, taking care of themselves in dress and grooming, personal hygiene, cleaning up their room, and generally being responsible for their actions.\nIf the society of America is well, those in need will be cared for as our ancestors used to do\u2014through private means and primarily as the local level. Churches used to run orphanages, villages and towns used to operate poor farms where destitute people could be housed and fed while they \u201cgot back on their feet.\u201d Private organizations such as the YMCA and Salvation Army provided shelter and clothing and soup kitchens.\nBut with such huge numbers of citizens not providing for themselves nowadays because the government welfare check allows them to stay on the couch watching TV, private charity is woefully insufficient. The welfare recipients have become economic slaves wearing shackles\u2014golden instead of iron, but shackles nonetheless. Without realizing it, they have also become addicts, welfare addicts.\nWhen the government can no longer afford to provide welfare and food stamps for all who want it and are used to it, watch out. The riots in Europe over reduced benefits from government will occur here as well, and that time seems to be approaching fast.\nGordon Anderson on August 24, 2011 at 10:05 am said:\nJohn, I think you have amplified my concern about the current welfare system being the road to hell. And, you are right that they thought the Federal government should have absolutely nothing to do with the provision of welfare. The founders, left the states to decide how welfare would be provided for themselves. My point was that the private sector, in some circumstances, failed to reach everyone. Some still fell through the cracks. I suggested in my reply to Alan below that perhaps those people passed over by their own families, churches, or the Salvation Army, could be offered a bed on collective organic farms that would be self-sufficient enterprises on public land. The Shaker communities were actually a form of such collective welfare communities with a particular religious basis (like AA).\nAlan Jessen on August 24, 2011 at 12:14 pm said:\nBoys Town (and now Girls Town) is a very successful model of using a geographical place set apart from the cities as a socialization method for troubled or abandoned youth to help them \u201creintegrate\u201d. It has a spiritual core that drives its rules and programs. Seems that this could adapted for welfare recipients as well.",

        "raw_content": "Get Some Power Behind Your Power of Attorney Form\nNJ101.5\u2019s article, \u201cHow you can fight banks on power of attorney,\u201d says that a bank\u2019s refusal to accept a valid power of attorney has become a big problem everywhere.\nHowever, under some state laws, financial institutions are required to accept a power of attorney unless the principal\u2019s signature isn\u2019t genuine or the bank employee has received actual notice that the principal is dead, revoked the document or wasn\u2019t competent to execute the document. Some states\u2019 statutes say that the bank isn\u2019t required to accept a power of attorney that is presented more than 10 years after its execution date or on which it hasn\u2019t acted for a 10-year period\u2014unless the agent is the spouse, a parent or a descendant of a parent of the principal. If the agent or principal has given the bank the agent\u2019s address, the bank has to notify the agent that the power of attorney won\u2019t be honored and give the reason that it has been rejected.\nBanks will in many case reject a valid power of attorney for a variety of reasons due to their concerns about liability. The bank officer who enforces the bank\u2019s internal policies on powers of attorney is typically not an attorney and may not understand the law\u2014or he or she is adhering to a bank policy, which may violate state law.\nBecause the bank doesn\u2019t want to have to enforce the requirement of two signatures from a power of attorney that requires agents to act jointly, the bank may decide to reject power of attorney documents with joint agents unless the power of attorney document says that either of the agents is permitted to act independently.\nIn the event that a valid power of attorney is rejected, try to talk with the branch manager. If that fails, ask to speak to someone in the legal department. If this also doesn\u2019t work, and the principal is competent, the path of least resistance may be to simply have the principal sign a new power of attorney that permits the agents to act independently.\nIf the principal isn\u2019t competent, the agent may want to contact an attorney to write a letter to the bank explaining the law\u2014or threaten to or actually transfer the assets to a different bank that will be a little more flexible and accept the power of attorney.\nReference: NJ101.5 (July 25, 2016) \u201cHow you can fight banks on power of attorney\u201d\nPosted by Hegwood Law on 09/07/2016 at 09:30 AM in Asset Protection, Assets, Estate Planning, Estate Planning Lawyer, Power of Attorney, Tax Planning, Trust Planning | Permalink | Comments (0)",

        "raw_content": "Pegasus World Cup Qualifier Plus at Least Seven NHC Seats Up for Grabs During Upcoming Weekend with 14 Featured Tourneys\nPosted on December 7, 2017 by ericwing\nAs the 2017 calendar marches forward, HorseTourneys marches on with another robust weekend offering significant cash and a host of desirable live-tournament seats, including seven to next February\u2019s NHC.\nWe get things started on Friday with our $6,000 Guaranteed Pick & Pray game with pool-style payouts that could mean a prize pool of as much as $10,000 depending on how many take part. But it will be worth at least $6,000 no matter what. The entry fee is $190, and entries are capped at 60. Contest races are the 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th from Gulfstream; the 6th and 7th at Aqueduct; and the 6th through 9th at Woodbine\u201410 races in all.\nThe same races will comprise the schedule for that day\u2019s ever-popular $75 NHC qualifier at HorsePlayers.\nTwo NHC seats (the first two of the at least seven that will be awarded during the weekend) are guaranteed in this low-entry-fee, high-payoff event.\nSaturday again puts the accent on two subjects near and dear to most gamblers\u2014cash and Las Vegas.\nOur Saturday, live-format cash game is guaranteed at $20,000, and the pot could jump to as much as $30,000 depending on signups. (Entries are capped at 133.) This\u2014our richest tourney of the weekend\u2014costs $260 to enter, though you could also opt to win your way into the $20,000 via one of our low-cost feeders. Tanya Taylor did that (using a feeder as her starting point for that day\u2019s big-money game) last weekend, and a few short hours later, she was the winner of $35,000.\nThere\u2019s also a live, full-package qualifier on Saturday for the 2018 Horse Player World Series in March. It costs $117 to play and one entry per 25 will receive not just a $1,500 entry to the big, three-day competition, but four nights at The Orleans and another $500 for your transportation expenses.\nIf you prefer the bright lights of the strip, then you may choose among a pair of Saturday NHC qualifiers.\nOne is a \u201cregular\u201d $165 Pick & Pray with two seats guaranteed here at HorseTourneys. And the other\u2026\n\u2026is a $500 Super Qualifier (live-format) over at HorsePlayers with one seat guaranteed and a highly attractive NHC-winning ratio of just one in 21.\nContest races for all of Saturday\u2019s featured tourneys are the 6th through 8th (all stakes) at Laurel Park; the 7th and 9th from Aqueduct; the 7th, 9th and 10th from Tampa Bay Downs; and the 6th through 9th at Hawthorne.\nIf you like the sounds of Friday and Saturday, then you should really like Sunday. Because there are as many featured tourneys on Sunday as on Friday and Saturday combined (seven).\nThe day\u2019s marquee event among direct qualifiers is our live-format advancer to the Pegasus World Cup Betting Championship at Gulfstream on January 26-27. One entry in 30, at $480 each, will win a $12,000 entry (plus $500 for travel) to this ultra-high-end contest.\nThere are also three nice Sunday qualifiers all carrying entry fees under $100.\nFor $92, you can take a swing at winning $1,180 in entry fees for the Surfside tournaments on Dec. 29-31,\nOr you could try and parlay $87 into a $1,500 entry for the Horse Player World Series.\nOr for just $63, you could win your entry fees for the two days of tournaments during the Hawthorne Holiday Extravaganza (Dec. 29-30). This year, the two winners at Hawthorne will become eligible for $1 million bonuses should he or she go on to win the NHC in February.\nOur top Sunday cash game is again guaranteed at $12,000 but with a pool-style, \u201cThe more that play, the more we pay\u201d provision that could grow the pot to as much as $20,000. It\u2019s a live-format game this week with an entry fee of $195, and entries are capped at $118.\nSticking with cash games, there\u2019s a $2,000 guaranteed Exacta tourney (you simply pick a three-horse box in every race) for $72, and the purse could reach $5,000 if the maximum number of entries (79) sign up.\nLast but not least, there\u2019s a final opportunity of the weekend over at HorsePlayers for you to qualify for the NHC.\nThis is a live-format \u201cregular\u201d qualifier with an entry fee of $165. Two seats are guaranteed to be awarded.\nEnjoy your holiday contest shopping. And may your efforts bring you good cheer.",

        "title": "The Fool on the Hill: Catalunya, Rule, and Law",
        "raw_content": "Catalunya, Rule, and Law\nThe Spanish courts seek to suppress the Republic of Catalunya, in the name of the rule of law. The EU refuses to intervene, because it claims it's an internal Spanish matter.\nThe EU has high claims to support fine-sounding principles, including human rights, democracy, subsidiarity, and the rule of law; and in claiming that, if finds itself, like a bullfighter in a fight the Spanish courts denied Catalunya the right to ban, on the horns of a dilemma of its own breeding.\nThe Rule of Law is not synonymous with democracy; in fact, it is more often antagonistic to it. This is shown by the Catalan crisis.\nLaw is, at best, a lagging indicator of a social consensus - but only when passed by delegates voting in their constituents interests. Law is more often passed by elites (the House of Lords, a Tory cabinet of millionaires, etc) in their own interests, or by elected representatives excessively or corruptly influenced by powerful interests through 'think tanks' and 'lobbyists'.\nThis is particularly so in the Catalan case: the Spanish constitution was negotiated with fascists in Franco's dying days, and is fenced round with conditions which make it unalterable in practice. Even if there was a practical course to amend the constitution, the Catalans are a systematic minority in Spain. They do not constitute a majority, they can never muster a supermajority. They cannot change it.\nSo where does that leave Carles Puigdemont and the Catalan Government? The courts said they could not hold a referendum. The electors, who elected them to office, said they must do so. The Rule of Law did not support democracy. Rather, democracy and the rule of law are in direct conflict. No man can serve two masters; the government of Catalunya chose to obey their electors.\nHere endeth the first part; the lemma, if you will. Now, let's move onto the thesis.\nLawyers will argue that the law solves this problem: that the UN Charter and the ECHR are incorporated into Spanish law, and somehow trump the constitution, making the judgement of the Constitutional Court wrong. I say that argument does not hold.\nIt may be that in this particular case there are ambiguities and paradoxes in the corpus of law by which one can contort the law into appearing to agree with the democratic decision of the people. But what if there weren't? Should the rule of law trump democracy?\nThe principle of subsidiarity dictates that the people who should decide the governance of Catalunya are the people of Catalunya. The principle of democracy dictates that they must have a mechanism available to then to decide this. And in Catalunya especially, with its ancient tradition of civil society and its proud tradition of anarcho-syndicalism, the views of the people must surely trump the views of any governing elite.\nSo where does that leave Donald Tusk, Guy Verhofstadt and the rest of the sclerotic cabal in Brussels? They can support the Rule of Law. Or they can support Democracy. They can't do both. It's time to choose.",

        "raw_content": "Dozens of mayors visited the Pope today \u2013 here\u2019s what happened\nA Strong Show of Commitment to Papal Agenda on Climate Change & Sustainable Development\nFollowing the launch of the Encyclical Letter on the Care for Our Common Home, Laudato Si, and in the lead up to the Paris Climate Change Conference, COP21, Pope Francis today convened more than 60 local leaders from around the world \u2013 including 20 C40 Mayors \u2013 to discuss the pressing topics of climate change and sustainable development in cities.\nThe two-day event reinforced the importance of addressing the challenge of climate change and its potentially deleterious effects on the social fabric in cities, highlighting the so-called \u201cmodern slavery\u201d of social injustice that can be imposed on those most vulnerable to climate impacts.\n(Photo credit: Pontifical Academy of Sciences)\nThe Pope gave an impromptu address in which he reiterated that care for the environment meant, above all, adopting an attitude of human ecology and that \u201cLaudato si\u2019\u201d was not simply a \u201cgreen\u201d but also a social document.\n\u201cAnd so, why did the Pontifical Academy of Sciences convoke mayors and city governors? Because are aware of how to carry out this important and profound work, from the centre to the periphery, and from the periphery to the centre. They are aware of the reality of humanity. The Holy See may make a good speech before the United Nations, but if the work does not come from the periphery to the centre, it will have no effect; hence the responsibility of mayors and city governors.\u201d\nIn a packed agenda, which featured C40 Mayors from Johannesburg, New York, Paris, Stockholm, Vancouver and other global cities across the C40 network, Special Advisor to the C40 Chair Rodrigo Rosa made a speech emphasizing the need to further the global agenda on social justice and sustainable development. Speaking on behalf of the C40 Chair, Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Paes, Rosa promised a sustained commitment in support of the Papal climate agenda:\n\u201cCities are our \u201cCommon Home\u201d and\u200b we must work together to make them safe, fair and sustainable. As leaders of our communities, we believe in cities as a force for good. By embracing their potential, we can address many of today\u2019s most urgent challenges -\u200b including threats like climate change and modern slavery.\u200b\u201d\nC40 Executive Director Mark Watts and C40 Mayors & representatives took the opportunity to meet today, discussing a common desire to bring today\u2019s declaration to COP21. (Photo credit: Raphael Lima)\nAs a result of the workshops, the Pontifical Academy of Sciences released two Declarations signed by the mayors released a Declaration signed by the mayors expressing commitment to creating socially inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable cities.\nThe first Declaration stated:\n\u201cAs Mayors we commit to building, in our cities and urban settlements, the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reduce their exposure to climate-related extreme events and other economic, social and environmental shocks and disasters, including human trafficking and dangerous forced migration\u201d\nIt further notes that political leaders of all UN member states have a special responsibility to agree at COP21 to a bold climate agreement that confines global warming to a limit safe for humanity, and helps to finance the costs of climate-change mitigation in low-income countries. Indeed, through initiatives such as the Compact of Mayors, cities are doing their part to set ambitious targets, take meaningful action and plan for a sustainable and climate safe future.\nThe second Declaration, \u201cAn Alliance for Sustainable Cities,\u201d looks ahead to the global adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the UN member states at the United Nations on September 25, 2015. In the document, mayors pledge to work towards the success of the SDGs in their own cities, and to launch a SDG Urban Alliance to that end.\nFor more information, check out the recording of the Vatican event here and be sure to stay tuned for further developments on this story by following the hashtag #MayorsCare, as well as the accounts @c40cities and @CasinaPioIV.\nFor more information about cities and climate change, visit the C40 blog.\nDeath of Zimbabwe\u2019s Best-Loved Lion Ignites Debate on Sport Hunting\nLandmarks Crumbling, Skyscrapers Climbing in Sarajevo",

The musical journey begins in 1964 with tracks released when they were known as the High Numbers and finishes in 1991 with their recording of \u201cSaturday Night\u2019s Alright (For Fighting)\u201d which was their contribution to the Elton John tribute album, Two Rooms.\nThis is probably not a box set for those who are unfamiliar with the group\u2019s music. It would be best to start with a couple of their classic albums or a simple greatest hits release such as Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy. If, however, you are a serious fan of The Who, this is an essential package that is full of classic moments with a number of surprises thrown in for good measure.\nThe enclosed booklet is spectacular as it is filled with rare photos and interesting commentary by Pete Townshend. Some of the tracks could have more clarity which is really inexcusable given that the producers has access to the original masters. This is especially apparent with some of their later material.\nDisc one takes the group from their beginnings to the release of the single \u201cCall Me Lightning.\u201d The four songs by the High Numbers show a rawness and energy. Songs such as \u201cZoot Suit\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m The Face\u201d hint at what they would become in a very short time. \u201cI Can\u2019t Explain\u201d kicks off the official Who career and \u201cMy Generation,\u201d \u201cHappy Jack,\u201d \u201cBoris The Spider,\u201d and \u201cPictures Of Lily\u201d quickly follow and form a catalog of some of the best rock \u2018n\u2019 roll to be issued in the mid-1960\u2019s.\nDisc two begins with the sophisticated rocker, \u201cI Can See For Miles.\u201d Classic tracks from Tommy make an appearance. \u201cOverture,\u201d \u201cAcid Queen,\u201d \u201cPinball Wizard,\u201d \u201cI\u2019m Free\u201d and a live version of \u201cSee Me, Feel Me\u201d are all reminders of the brilliance of Pete Townshend\u2019s groundbreaking rock opera. The only real mistake on this disc was to issue the shortened version of \u201cSummertime Blues\u201d instead of the original longer track from Live At Leeds which was one of the best concert performances ever put on tape.\nDisc three is rooted in some of the strongest music of their career. \u201cBaba O\u2019Riley,\u201d \u201cBargain,\u201d \u201cBehind Blue Eyes,\u201d and \u201cWon\u201dt Get Fooled Again,\u201d show The Who evolving as keyboards are more prominent in their sound and the production has a slickness to it. The power of the music would remain as The Who would solidify themselves as one of rock\u2019s premier groups.\nDisc four covers the years that are considered the group\u2019s weakest. However, when you assemble their best material from this era it holds up pretty well. \u201cLong Live Rock\u201d and \u201cSqueeze Box\u201d would be welcome additions to any album. Songs such as \u201cWho Are You,\u201d \u201cSister Disco,\u201d \u201cYou Better You Bet,\u201d and \u201cEminence Front\u201d sound better and fresh when removed from their original albums. Two live tracks, \u201cTwist and Shout\" and \u201cI\u2019m A Man\u201d were previously unreleased at the time and present The Who as an effective and dynamic cover band.\nThirty Years Of Maximum R&B is a wonderful journey through three decades of some of the best music that was ever produced by a rock \u2018n\u2019 roll band. So sit back and turn the sound up real loud.",

        "raw_content": "Despite my last post suggesting that I was more a fan of rock music here I am posting YouTube clips of musicals! I have to admit I do quite like a tune from musicals and quite enjoy bellowing along in the car on my way to work. I was even embarrassing some of our children this week with my own rendition of Let it Go from Frozen, much to Miss Wilson\u2019s amusement.Anyone who has worked with me in the past knows that I have a bit of tendency to sing or hum as I am walking around the school and pretty soon everyone gets used to it but since we are all still getting to know each other here it came as a little bit of a surprise.\nIt feels like I have been Headteacher of Easter Carmuirs for much longer than the 4 weeks I have been in post and I mean that in a very positive way! I am getting to know everyone a little better and viceversa. I spoke at my interview about my very firm belief that if we are going to work successfully as a community we need to take account of everyone as an individual and the only way we can do that is by getting to know one another, and the best way to do that is by talking to each other.\nAs part of my reading for my postgraduate qualification in headship we spent some time considering this book by Brent Davies and one of the key points for me was that \u201crelationships are formed only when people come into contact with each other\u201d. It seems like such an obvious thing to say but in the day to day running of a school with the pressures on everyone to meet deadlines, deliver paperwork and all the other things that have been called the \u201ctyranny of the urgent\u201d it can be one of the first things to get dropped out of a day. I try to make it a point to visit every class, every day and most days I manage it. I also make every effort to get into the playground every day as it gives us an opportunity to chat in a slightly different context. I enjoy speaking with our staff, children and families finding out a little more every time about what makes us all individuals, so if you see me out and around the school at the end of the day don\u2019t forget to introduce yourself and have a blether!\nI was never an enormous fan of the Carpenters (I prefer something a bit rockier) but I happened to see a documentary on Karen Carpenter last week and it was really interesting although very sad. I thought the title at least was appropriate for my first blog post.\nAnyway, I hope I will be able to update my blog every couple of weeks and chat about some of the things that have got me thinking. The first three weeks have absolutely flown by and I am sitting with a cup of coffee in my house thinking about how much has happened already. I have been made to feel very welcome by all the children, staff and families and although I still have many of you to meet I am definitely getting there with the children\u2019s names!\nOne of the main developments we will be getting on with this year is the development of well-being and resilience in our children. Along with all the other schools in the Falkirk High Learning Community we have chosen to focus on a programme called BounceBack. We will be developing this programme over this session and beyond helping our children focus on key messages about resilience and to recognise that they have the skills, knowledge and attitudes to flourish and grow. I am sure that many of your children have been speaking about Bounce Back time where the whole class sits together and eats for a short time and talks about some of the days issues either within class or with a wider perspective. This is a key part of our introduction to the development of resilience within the school and we are looking forward to seeing it progress over the years.\nThese 10 points below come from the Centre for Confidence and Wellbeing who have lots of really interesting resources and background to the approach we are taking.\n1.Remember, bad feelings: don\u2019t last; have a purpose; and galvanise us to do things differently.\n2.Try to normalise young people\u2019s set-backs. Help them to see they are not abnormal in having difficulties in life.\n3.Help them to see that problems can be solved.\n4.Encourage young people to keep things in perspective \u2013 the problem is usually confined to only one part of their lives.\n5.Remember the value of humour \u2013 laughing can be a great release (but only if it is well-intentioned).\n6.Encourage young people to accept responsibility for their actions.\n7.When reading stories, or discussing events, point out how people manage to overcome difficulties.\n8.Remember that learning is often frustrating. Encourage young people to persist and believe they can get there.\n9.Provide support. Help them to see there are people who care about them and can give them help and advice when needed.\n10.Create a positive environment, that emphasises the importance of relationships and a sense of purpose: there is more to life than the way they feel.",

        "raw_content": "Jan 7, 2016 | Opinions\n2016 will see the selection of a new Secretary-General of the United Nations, as Ban Ki-moon\u2019s second term ends on 31 December 2016. Even though there is no limit to the number of terms a Secretary-General may serve, none has held office for more than two terms.\nBut how does it all work? We explain the appointment process here:\n1. How is the Secretary-General selected?\nAccording to article 97 of the UN Charter, \u201cThe Secretary-General shall be appointed by the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council.\u201d\nThis rather general description has been further specified by a range of General Assembly resolutions and the Security Council Rules of Procedure. So this is what happens:\nThere is no detailed outline for the nomination process. All UN Member States are encouraged to engage and the President of the Security Council is supposed to consult with the General Assembly on a regular basis. Furthermore, the President of the General Assembly has the right to consult with Member States and recommend potential candidates to the Security Council. Nominations have traditionally been made mostly my Member States though there is no rule governing who can make a nomination.\nAs for the timeframe, the candidate should ideally be appointed one month prior to the end of the current term (General Assembly resolutions 51/241 from 1997 and A/Res/60/286).\nUnited Nations Security Council (file photo). UN Photo/Rick Bajornas\nIn the first stage of a two-step process, the Security Council adopts a resolution recommending a candidate to the General Assembly. Even though technically there is no limit to the number of recommendations, it has been practice to nominate one candidate only (in line with GA resolution 11 (I) of 1946). If more than one candidate is being considered, balloting will be conducted.\nThe negotiations take place in closed session, as outlined in Rule 48 of the Provisional Rules of Procedure of the Security Council.\nThe decision requires at least nine votes in favour, including those of the 5 Permanent Members. Therefore, China, France, Russia, the UK and the US have a de-facto veto power (confirmed by GA resolution 11 (I) of 1946).\nUnited Nations General Assembly (file photo). UN Photo/Eskinder Debebe\nIn a second step, the General Assembly considers the candidate nominated by the Security Council and votes upon him or her. This deliberation also takes place in a closed session, as required by Rule 141 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Assembly. The nominee requires a simple majority to be selected.\n2. Who were the previous Secretaries-General?\nTrygve Lie (Norway), February 1946 to his resignation in November 1952\nDag Hammarskj\u00f6ld (Sweden), April 1953 to his death in a plane crash in September 1961\nU Thant (Burma/Myanmar), November 1961 to December 1971\nKurt Waldheim (Austria), January 1972 to December 1981\nJavier P\u00e9rez de Cu\u00e9llar (Peru), January 1982 to December 1991\nBoutros Boutros-Ghali (Egypt), January 1992 to December 1996\nKofi Annan (Ghana), January 1997 to December 2006\n3. Who will be the next Secretary-General?\nObviously, nobody knows yet.\nHowever, there are some indicators: General Assembly resolution 51/241 from 1997 stressed the importance of regional and gender balance. Since Eastern Europe is the only UN regional group that from which a Secretary-General has not been selected, resulting in speculation that a candidate from this region might have higher chances.\nFurthermore, all eight Secretaries-General in the Organization\u2019s 70-year history have been men, and many are calling for a female nominee, with several campaigns for a woman Secretary-General having formed around the 2016 election process.\nThe Security Council uses color-coded straw ballots to vote on the candidates. This practice was established by the \u201cWisnumurti Guidelines\u201c, proposed in 1996 by then UN Permanent Representative from Indonesia, H.E. Ambassador Nugroho Wisnumurti.\nSee the UN News Centre FAQ\nNews Centre: For first time in history, UN General Assembly presidents put forward proposal to open selection of next UN Secretary-General to include input from all Member States\nPreviousUN Television Series \u201cUN in Action\u201d Records Episode 1,500\nNextStory from the field: Beirut and the Global Goals\nDirector Steve McQueen to Speak Out at the United Nations on Slavery",

        "raw_content": "The Big Thing Recent Grads Get Wrong About Career Evolution\nby GenFKD and Caroline Beaton\nCareer evolution \u2013 and, actually, the evolution of everything \u2013 is not some straight line to success, it\u2019s actually more plodding than we think.\nSteve Jobs > a puppy?\nFor Christmas in 1998, I got a dog and my sister got an iMac. I\u2019d wanted a dog for all seven years of my life, but when Anna unwrapped her shiny blue personal computer, I cried.\nWe later played with the iMac more than the dog. We became infatuated with a computer game called Bugdom, where we directed a roly poly named Rollie McFly to free Bugdom from the tyranny of an evil fire ant.\nBut the one most enthralled with Bugdom and the iMac was my dad. He once got my mom, who doesn\u2019t fish, a fly tying kit for Christmas, and maybe this was like that. The computer sat in Anna\u2019s room, where my dad would play late into the night as she slept. Thanks to \u201ctop-notch\u201d graphics and sound, the game was one of the first that could \u201cbe enjoyed by both children and adults,\u201d according to the now-defunct Mac news site, Applelinks.\nBut there was probably another reason my dad loved the iMac: it was a symbol of progress.\nTo: Caroline, Love: The Universe\nBorn between roughly 1980 and 2000, many millennials saw only the end of the tech revolution. For us, those bright, translucent iMacs just appeared under the tree. We commanded walking bugs on a screen and didn\u2019t think anything of it. What we perceived as commonplace magic was, for my dad, a product of a long time coming.\nFrom a human\u2019s perspective, the evolution of computers was slow and inefficient. My dad was born during the first generation of computers (1940-1956), which were the size and weight of Hummers and calculated basic arithmetic. I was born in the middle of the fourth generation (1971-2010), which introduced personal computers, the Internet, and the graphical interface that made Bugdom possible.\nIn many ways, millennials came of age in a tech and consumer landscape that was already formed. My dad grew up making DIY radios. I grew up, like Zoolander\u2019s Hansel, not really knowing what was in the computer.\nAnd so when it came time to start my career, I entered the workforce assuming the perfect position was waiting for me. Perhaps it would take some time to find, but somewhere was an unwrapped box labeled, \u201cTo: Caroline, Love: The Universe,\u201d containing my career.\nNearly four years out of college, I\u2019ve learned that careers aren\u2019t like Steve Jobs\u2019 iMac or Amazon Prime. My mistake was thinking the road to my ideal career would be efficient and already existing. I didn\u2019t understand what evolution meant.\nMistakes, change, progress\nThe definition of evolution is \u201cany process of formation, growth or development.\u201d And it\u2019s not that computers and careers are slow to advance. Evolution itself, at least the biological kind, is sluggish.\nIn a 2012 Scientific American article on the findings that just 80 percent (or, by some accounts, 8.2 percent) of human DNA is functional, Ashutosh Jogalekar explains that \u201cevolution is messy, incomplete and inefficient.\u201d Because evolution arises from mutations \u2013 mistakes in gene copies or resulting from environmental factors \u2013 it\u2019s a \u201cflawed, piecemeal \u2026 and patchwork process.\u201d Most mutations don\u2019t do anything, or kill us. The rest help us evolve.\nSince mutations start in a single cell, evolution takes time. Artificial intelligence researcher Eliezer Yudkowsky wrote that in a human population of one million, it would take 2763 generations for a \u201cgene conveying a one percent advantage to spread through the gene pool.\u201d For example, it took homo sapiens who migrated from Africa to Europe about 30,000 years to develop light skin in response to the cloudier, colder environment.\nEven with time, sometimes evolution works poorly. Consider pandas, who are notoriously bad at the two things their species needs to survive: mating and digesting bamboo. But despite inefficiencies, without mutations biological evolution, species variation and humans wouldn\u2019t be possible.\nLikewise, without time and frequent mistakes and changes, a well-formed, fulfilling career is unattainable. Career development differs from biological evolution and technology advancement, of course, but the point is evolution is never easy or efficient. The expectation that it is causes needless pain and confusion.\nOur careers are not just long but random, circuitous and faulty. Once we overcome that surprise, though, I think this fact is deeply rewarding. Maybe my dad enjoyed Bugdom so much because he knew what went into it.\nOriginally published at GenFKD.org.",

We had to work very closely with Unijobs throughout due to the complex nature of the business and regulations governing it.\nBobby\u2019s Experience\n\u201cWe have worked with Boon Agency on the development of a system to manage the process of recording and approving hours worked by agency staff. Recruitment agencies consistently grapple with the challenge of having one system, that is user-friendly which will allow temporary employees, many of whom have complex pay and charge structures on concurrent multiple assignments, to easily submit and have their hours approved.\nWhen we failed to source a capable, affordable system on the market, we spoke to Boon. Pretty much instantly they took ownership of our challenge and over recent months have developed a system that will meet our requirements and go much further than our initial expectations.\nThe people of Boon have gone way beyond what one would normally expect of any service provider to understand our needs and the needs of our industry. Their motto of keeping it sharp and simple has worked. What they have created for us is truly innovative and exciting. It has simple and intuitive designs and will transform the lives of the daily users especially those of us who are in-house processing thousands of timesheets from submittal right through to final invoicing all the while accurately managing various individual accruals.\nWorking with Boon has been affordable, fun, inspiring and serious.\u201d\nDelivering the Unijobs Timesheet System & Website:",

        "raw_content": "We are fortunate to be able to offer a range of courses for parents and carers in partnership with the adult education organisation Aspire. These courses help parents and carers to support their children at home and in school and can also give parents the opportunity to gain qualifications. They offer parents, grandparents and children the opportunity to learn together to acquire new skills as well as a chance to share ideas with other parents.\nThe majority of courses are run by external trainers who have previously been teachers.\nOur learning opportunities for parents have been very successful for both parents and children. Parents gain an understanding of how schools work and how literacy and numeracy are taught. The courses help to break down some of the fears that some parents may have about schools and help to forge working partnerships between parents, the child and the school.\nWe are extremely proud of the full programme of Family Learning opportunities we provide at Buckingham Park. The programme aims to encourage parents to engage with their child\u2019s learning and makes sure they are equipped with the methods and techniques needed to support learning.\nThis year we have run a three week Keeping up with the Children (Maths) course and three First Aid for Families courses as well as a Reading course and a three week Fun with Phonics course.\nPlease click on the link attached to find out more information about Aspire Sussex and the training programmes they offer.\nWe have also run two Parent Gym courses. This was a very successful course which we ran last year to support parents to develop positive parenting techniques at home. The feedback from parents who attended last year was extremely positive.\nIn November we offered parents of children in Year 2 the chance to come into school and participate in a maths workshop with the children and the Year 2 teachers. This was extremely successful and enjoyable.\nRead the positive comments from the recent maths course:\n\u201cI feel much more confident with helping my children with their maths. The games and worksheets were brilliant and the times tables tricks are really helpful. Maths feels more fun for my daughter (Year 3). She is really enjoying learning her times tables. It was great to hear other parents\u2019 ways of helping\u201d.\n\u201cThe way that the children add up in school makes a lot of sense and makes it easier for them. Thank you very much for running this course. I am much more comfortable in participating with my son\u2019s maths learning\u201d.\n\u201cI feel much more confident that I know how multiplication is taught at each stage. This will make it easier to help my children. This is a great course for showing me how my children are taught maths at each stage, as this is different from how I was taught. It has allowed me to help them out more with their maths \u2013 without confusing them!\u201d.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t realise I was actually already doing maths with my children until today, when we spoke about shopping and baking\u201d.\n\u201cNow I know how to help them work it out the way they do it!\u201d\n\u201cI feel so confident in helping my son now. I\u2019ve a completely different attitude to maths and how to help him, as I now understand what\u2019s expected of him and how I can help outside of school. A really great course\u201d.\n\u201c(At home) we\u2019ve put a positive \u2018spin\u2019 on maths \u2013 it isn\u2019t a chore anymore. I feel I can now approach my son about maths and he doesn\u2019t close up. He loves that I have been to school to learn like him. He no longer has his phobia\u201d.\n\u201cI\u2019m now more confident in talking about maths and understand more of the vocabulary used in school\u201d.",

His comment, which was widely criticized both at home and abroad, was made during a visit to the city of P\u00e9cs in the immediate wake of the senseless, brutal murder of a young female shop assistant in Kaposv\u00e1r.\nAt the opening of the European Parliament\u2019s plenary session in Strasbourg last week, an Austrian social-democrat MEP called on Schulz to take action regarding Orb\u00e1n\u2019s statement. All EU Member States are required to respect EU law, which explicitly prohibits corporal punishment.\nSchulz responded by phoning Orb\u00e1n to discuss the statement. Minister in charge of the Office of the Prime Minister J\u00e1nos L\u00e1z\u00e1r said Orb\u00e1n reassured Schulz that he has no plans to reinstate the death penalty in Hungary, adding that Orb\u00e1n\u2019s statement was made because a serious debate has emerged in Hungary regarding merits of reintroducing the death penalty.\nArmin Machmer, spokesperson for Schulz, later told Hungary\u2019s state media that the European Parliament\u2019s LIBE committee would convene the following week to discuss the issue. (Machmer also said LIBE would discuss Orb\u00e1n\u2019s statements regarding the treatment of migrants in Hungary).\nIt\u2019s too soon to decide whether to reintroduce the death penalty in Hungary but it\u2019s definitely an important issue, Orb\u00e1n said during an interview on Hungary\u2019s pro-government television broadcaster Echo TV.\nOrb\u00e1n hi\u00e1ba h\u00e1tr\u00e1lt ki, Br\u00fcsszel \u00f6ssze\u00fcl a hal\u00e1lb\u00fcntet\u00e9s miatt, Propeller.hu; 4 May 2015.\nOrb\u00e1n and Rog\u00e1n both say death penalty still up for debate April 29, 2015\nEuropean leaders criticize Viktor Orb\u00e1n\u2019s statements on the death penalty, immigration May 1, 2015\nEC formally suspends road development funds, assesses huge penalty on Hungary July 16, 2015\nEP President Martin Schulz: We must take action against persecution and hatred May 5, 2015\nMartin Schulz: Hungary needs to start cooperating constructively with the EU October 4, 2016",

They claimed to have abandoned their criminal past and to be following in the footsteps of the Black Panthers and the Young Lords.\nWith over 3,000 members in New York, some saw the Latin King and Queen Nation as the most important political voice to rise from the streets in decades. The NYPD did not agree, calling them a vicious gang with a PR campaign. One thing is certain, the City was never the same after the Nation went downtown.\nIn 1997 Big Noise films became the only media group ever given unrestricted access to the Nation. For two years they ran with the Kings and Queens in New York City, filming on the front lines of their everyday struggle for survival. Black and Gold explores a reality that is too often reduced to a stereotype or a slogan. Its unblinking lens puts you at the center of a complex and controversial movement.\nThe Nation was one of the major forces that made police violence and the prison system political issues in New York City. But from the beginning the NYPD has questioned the sincerity of the Nation's political involvement, and has systematically worked to dismantle what they see as the most dangerous street gang in the City. Their efforts culminated in a spectacular midnight raid on May 15, 1998 when over 1,000 Federal and City agents simultaneously raided homes across the city making over 100 arrests in what was the largest coordinated FBI action since prohibition.\nBlack and Gold lets you feel the tension inside the movement as it comes under fire from midnight police raids and assassination attempts. In the end it shows us both the black and the gold - both the fear and violence of the street and the fierce love inside the most dangerous movement in the City.\nExtras include full length interviews with King Tone and Puerto Rican revolutionary Richie Perez.\nA Good Day to Die: Dennis Banks and the American Indian Movement",

        "raw_content": "June 1, 2016 by Christine\tin Writing and tagged Editing, Rayne Hall\nSorry for the long gap between posts, but I have been editing. Perhaps that word should be in large black letters, such has been its impact on my life.\nSo, I have been EDITING.\nBefore I started writing I didn\u2019t realise what it would be like. You write a book, right? Then you try to publish it. OK you need to check over what you have written, that\u2019s easy.\nIt\u2019s not! I discovered that there is only a certain length of time I could continue before I would lose concentration. But then I was fit for nothing for the rest of the day \u2013 I have never felt so exhausted. I couldn\u2019t read anything and I definitely couldn\u2019t write anything.\nThere is a lot of information on the internet about editing, but I started with a book that someone had recommended. The Word-Loss Diet: Professional Self-Editing Techniques for Authors by Rayne Hall. This takes you through certain words to look for in your manuscript that can be cut. It starts, as is logical, with \u201cstart to\u201d and \u201cbegin to\u201d. Instead of \u201cShe started to run\u201d use \u201cshe ran\u201d. The author gives detailed instructions on how to highlight the bad words and then get rid of them. You then continue with words such as \u201clook\u201d, \u201csigh\u201d, \u201csmile\u201d. I was terrified at how often I used some of these words. I am sure it is something that professional writers do without thinking, but to a beginner like me it was an eye-opener. I think it has improved my writing, because I now try to avoid these errors.\n(I can also recommend Writing Fight Scenes, by the same author.)\nThis process was quite fun, compared with the grind of going through my manuscript line by line. I started in the middle, as I had already \u201cfinished\u201d the first half. When I got to the end, I decided to re-edit the first part. I found as many corrections as in the second part. Had I not edited the first part properly? Perhaps my editing had improved with practise. Do I have to go through it all again? And again? I know that however many times I check my work, there will be things I miss.\nAll this has confirmed the statement that I made in my last post \u2013 I need an editor. So I found one!\nAt the Self-publishing Conference, I attended two sessions with Cressida Downing. She handed out vouchers for 10% off her professional services. I had a look at her website and contacted her. After a discussion, we decided that I would send her my first three chapters and my synopsis for analysis and suggestions for improvement.\nI had a sudden crisis \u2013 what exactly were my first three chapters? There was a flurry of editing and rewriting and then I sent them off. It felt like taking a child to their first day at school and leaving them, all alone. (Actually it was worse, my children were happy to go to school and I was glad to get rid of them, temporarily of course.)\nNow I wait. What do I do next? Well I have turned my manuscript into an e-book and put it on my tablet. I will leave it there for a while before I pluck up the courage to read it. I have written and edited it. I have spent the last three years thinking about it and my characters, but I have never actually read it as a whole book.\nAfter that there will no doubt be a lot more editing. Hacking out great chunks, rearranging and perhaps some killing of darlings.\nMeanwhile I have had a holiday (well, a short break), read some books and done a lot of thinking about my next book. I have had a few ideas, even some for the book after that. I have no plan, but I think I must start writing again.\n\u2190 Self-Publishing \u2013 The Conference\nThegn in a reasonably priced car. \u2192\nOne thought on \u201cEditing\u201d\nGreat recommendation. I have just purchased a Kindle version and hope that it may improve my writing technique long before the editing stage.",

        "raw_content": "Brett Kavanaugh's ex-boss: It's 'preposterous' to demand his recusal from Mueller cases\nA former boss and political ally of Brett Kavanaugh, pushing back on a mounting rallying cry of Senate Democrats, said it is \u201cpreposterous\u201d to suggest that the Supreme Court nominee should recuse himself from cases involving Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation into President Trump\u2019s ties to Russia, because there is no evidence Kavanaugh and the president made a \u201cdeal\u201d about the issue.\n\u201cI don\u2019t see the basis for a recusal,\u201d Timothy Flanigan, who served as deputy White House counsel during the early years of the George W. Bush administration, said in an interview for the Yahoo News podcast \u201cSkullduggery.\u201d\nWhen it was pointed out that Trump had nominated Kavanaugh while under investigation by Mueller \u2014 and facing a potential subpoena for his testimony \u2014 Flanigan replied, \u201cI\u2019m not sure I see the relevance of that.\u201d He added that \u201cunless there was a credible suggestion that \u2026 there\u2019s some kind of deal that Brett would vote against [upholding a subpoena to the president], I frankly find that preposterous.\u201d\nSince President Trump announced Kavanaugh\u2019s nomination Monday night, a number of Democrats have demanded that Kavanaugh commit to recusing himself from any issues involving the Mueller probe that could end up before the court. They have argued that it would be a conflict of interest for him to rule on issues such as a potential subpoena for Trump\u2019s testimony or whether the president can be indicted \u2014 and that his vote on a divided court could be decisive, ultimately determining the fate of Trump\u2019s presidency.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think he should be on the court, and you can be sure that me and my colleagues on the Democratic side are going to be asking if he will recuse himself, should he be confirmed,\u201d Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., told reporters.\nFlanigan pointed out that the Supreme Court justice he clerked for \u2014 the late Chief Justice Warren Burger \u2014 was appointed by President Richard Nixon and did not recuse himself when the case involving Watergate special prosecutor Leon Jaworski\u2019s subpoena for the White House tapes came before the court. In fact, Flanigan noted, Burger wrote the majority opinion upholding Jaworski\u2019s subpoena \u2014 a decision that led to Nixon\u2019s resignation.\nNixon nominated Burger to the court in 1969, four years before the first Watergate special prosecutor, Archibald Cox, was appointed and the investigation began to focus on the president\u2019s role in a cover-up.\nAs deputy White House counsel during Bush\u2019s first term, Flanigan was a direct supervisor of Kavanaugh, who was then a young lawyer in the White House counsel\u2019s office. During that time, Flanigan said, Kavanaugh primarily worked on judicial selections and handled matters involving congressional subpoenas for White House documents. While Kavanaugh was unquestionably conservative, Flanigan said, he was a thoughtful lawyer open to accommodation, distinguishing him from the confrontational stands often taken by David Addington, the hardline executive power advocate who served as Vice President Dick Cheney\u2019s chief counsel.\nDemocrats and liberal advocacy groups, who are gearing up to fight the nomination, have said they intend to pore over hundreds of thousands of pages of documents from Kavanaugh\u2019s White House years. Among other things, they\u2019re looking for evidence that as a lawyer in the counsel\u2019s office and later as White House staff secretary, Kavanaugh may have played a role in such controversial policies as the approval of enhanced interrogation techniques of terror suspects, the indefinite detention of detainees at Guantanamo and warrantless wiretapping. But it could be a futile search, according to Flanigan.\n\u201cI don\u2019t recall Brett having any involvement in those issues relating to the war on terror,\u201d Flanigan said. \u201cHe was helping on other matters that were related to the aftermath of 9/11, but he was not central to the discussions regarding the war on terror or enhanced interrogation and so forth. He may have had, at some point, some role in reviewing someone else\u2019s work in that regard, but try as I can, I can\u2019t recall him having a central role there.\u201d\nEpisode 10: The inside story of \u2018Russian Roulette\u2019\nEpisode 11: Do not congratulate\nEpisode 12: Ken Starr on Stormy Daniels\nEpisode 13: The Comey blitzkrieg\nEpisode 14: With all due respect\u2026\nEpisode 15: Skullduggery Live!\nEpisode 16: I\u2019m crushing it!\nEpisode 17: \u2018I believe you have some information for us\u2019\nEpisode 18: Trump\u2019s \u2018ridiculous\u2019 spy claim\nEpisode 19: The President and his Princelings\nEpisode 20: What if we were wrong?\nEpisode 21: \u2018We had a suspect\u2019\nEpisode 22: Lying through their teeth\nEpisode 23: Before their rear end hits the chair\nEpisode 24: \u201cFinish it the hell up\u201d\n#skullduggery",

        "raw_content": "London exhibition celebrates female empowerment through fashion\nLONDON (Reuters) - From a jade green wool dress suit worn by former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher to the suffragettes\u2019 lace blouses, clothes have been a defining feature of women\u2019s empowerment, according to a new exhibition in London.\nA visitor looks at clothing on display in the \"Women Fashion Power exhibition at the Design Museum in London November 4, 2014. REUTERS/Suzanne Plunkett\n\u201cWomen Fashion Power\u201d at London\u2019s Design Museum features items of clothing from the past 150 years that have come to be associated with key moments in the lives of women in positions of authority.\nItems on display include a delicate lace blouse worn by members of the 19th-century suffragette movement, which campaigned for British women to get the vote, Thatcher\u2019s green dress suit and a black beaded evening gown worn by the late Princess Diana.\n\u201cThroughout history women have used dress in a very deliberate way to express power and authority. We have tried to give a historical context and really introduce the whole idea of using dress to express power,\u201d co-curator Donna Loveday said.\nShe is careful, though, to draw a distinction between women using clothes to express a sense of empowerment, and the 1980s trend for power dressing.\n\u201cI have not used the term \u2018power dressing\u2019 very deliberately, because I think that evokes a very particular image of that very masculine aggressive power look that we associated with the 1980s,\u201d Loveday said.\nThe exhibition is intended to show how women have used clothes to define how they want to be seen.\n\u201cSo I think there is a new attitude to clothes, it\u2019s not something that is silly or frivolous,\u201d Loveday said.\n\u201cIt is not something that restricts women or enslaves them. It is something that women are actively engaging with and using to project a sense of style, very individual, using it to express a sense of style and empowerment and authority.\u201d\nThe suffragettes wore clothes that would make them appear more sensible and rational as opposed to ultra feminine, she said.\nBeaded 1920s flapper dresses, mini skirts by designer Mary Quant in the early 1950s, and a leopard-print wrap dress by designer Diane von F\u00fcrstenberg are also highlighted by Loveday as key moments in fashion that define women\u2019s growing independence.\nShe was particularly interested in the wardrobes of contemporary women in power and asked 26 of them, across politics, business, culture and fashion to contribute an outfit to the exhibition.\nContributors included Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid, who designed the London Aquatic Centre for the 2012 Olympics, fashion designer Vivienne Westwood and the Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo. The exhibition also includes taped interviews with the 26 women where they discuss what fashion means to them.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a freedom that is reflected in the final exhibition through our contemporary women,\u201d Loveday said.\n\u201cWomen Fashion Power\u201d runs until April 26 at London\u2019s Design Museum.\nEditing by Michael Roddy and Susan Fenton",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Zootopia' rules, Sacha Baron Cohen\u2019s \u2018Brothers Grimsby' bombs\n(Variety.com) - Disney\u2019s \u201cZootopia\u201d cruised to another box office victory this weekend, picking up $50 million and barreling across the $100 million mark domestically.\nCast members Shakira (L), Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman, who give voices to the characters of Gazelle, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, pose at the premiere of \"Zootopia\" at El Capitan theatre in Hollywood, California February 17, 2016. REUTERS/Mario Anzuoni\nAfter two weeks of release, \u201cZootopia,\u201d the critically acclaimed story of a plucky rabbit policewoman, has earned $142.6 million stateside. In its second weekend, \u201cZootopia\u201d only dropped 33% \u2014 an impressive show of endurance at a time when major releases routinely see their grosses cut in half after a big opening. The animated offering is benefiting from a lack of family fare. It\u2019s been more than six weeks since \u201cKung Fu Panda 3\u201d landed in theaters and the next big film aimed at younger audiences doesn\u2019t hit until April 15 with \u201cThe Jungle Book.\u201d\n\u201cFamily audiences have been underserved for months, so this movie is perfectly timed to get more bang for the buck,\u201d said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at comScore.\nDespite the continued strength of \u201cZootopia,\u201d Paramount and Bad Robot\u2019s \u201c10 Cloverfield Lane\u201d was able to connect with audiences, earning $25.2 million from 3,391 locations. That\u2019s a strong return given that the film about a woman who finds herself trapped in a doomsday bunker, waiting out the apocalypse with the neighborhood survivalists, cost $13 million to produce. The studio also kept marketing costs in check, holding off its campaign until eight weeks before the film opening, with its biggest spending coming with a Super Bowl teaser.\nParamount vice chairman Rob Moore credited Bad Robot chief J.J. Abrams with coming up with the concept for the twisty thriller while he was in production on \u201cStar Wars: The Force Awakens.\u201d He said the key was to make sure that none of the advertisements revealed any of the film\u2019s surprises.\n\u201cWe wanted to give people just enough clues to keep them excited, interested, and wanting more,\u201d said Moore. \u201cThat\u2019s rare in this day and age, when so much [information] is given out so early.\u201d\nAll was not well with \u201cThe Brothers Grimsby.\u201d The Sony spy comedy from Sacha Baron Cohen opened to a terminal $3.2 million from 2,235 locations, raising questions about the comic mind behind \u201cBorat\u201d and \u201cBruno\u2019s\u201d continued bankability.\n\u201cWe certainly wanted more,\u201d said Rory Bruer, Sony\u2019s distribution chief. \u201cSacha is amazing and we love him, and we tried to crack the code on it, but it just didn\u2019t happen for us.\u201d\nCohen\u2019s most recent starring effort, 2012\u2019s \u201cThe Dictator,\u201d disappointed with roughly $180 million on a $65 million budget, and he tends to have a long period of time between projects, which may have diminished his popularity. Whatever the case, \u201cThe Brothers Grimsby,\u201d with a $35 million budget, ranks as the biggest flop of Cohen\u2019s career. He will try to rebound with a supporting turn in next summer\u2019s \u201cAlice Through the Looking Glass,\u201d a sequel to \u201cAlice in Wonderland.\u201d\nFocus\u2019 faith-based play, \u201cThe Young Messiah,\u201d had a lackluster launch, debuting to $3.4 million from 1,761 locations. Also opening, Lionsgate\u2019s romance \u201cThe Perfect Match,\u201d which unfolded in 925 locations to $4.2 million for the weekend.\nIn limited release, Bleecker Street\u2019s drone thriller \u201cEye in the Sky\u201d generated $117,050 from five locations for a $23,410 per-theater average. Roadside Attractions and Sony\u2019s Stage 6 Films also opened \u201cHello, My Name is Doris,\u201d an off-beat comedy about an older woman (Sally Field) who becomes smitten with a young co-worker, in four screens in New York and Los Angeles, where it pulled in $85,240 for a per-screen average of $21,310.\nThe domestic box office year-to-date was up more than 9% after last weekend. However, those gains have largely been on the backs of \u201cStar Wars: The Force Awakens,\u201d which opened in 2015, but did more than $400 million worth of business this year, as well as recent hits like \u201cZootopia,\u201d \u201cKung Fu Panda 3\u201d and \u201cDeadpool.\u201d That\u2019s led to a severe case of haves and have nots. There have been a litany of wide releases that have stumbled or fallen flat in recent months \u2014 a collection of also-runs and bombs that includes \u201cWhiskey Tango Foxtrot,\u201d \u201cGods of Egypt,\u201d \u201cThe 5th Wave,\u201d \u201cPride & Prejudice & Zombies\u201d and \u201cEddie the Eagle.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s a traffic jam out there,\u201d said Dergarabedian. \u201cThe marketplace is monumentally overcrowded and there are too many films that don\u2019t have a solid chance to do well.\u201d",

Just a week after feuding Lebanese leaders sealed a political deal to end 18 months of conflict, restaurants have re-opened, hotel bookings have soared and tourists have replaced gunmen on the streets of Beirut. REUTERS/ Steve Crisp\n\u201cThe deal has had an excellent impact. We\u2019ve had a flood of reservations and we\u2019re expecting a very good season,\u201d said Nizar Alouf, a member of the Lebanese Hotel Owners Association.\nIt took months of agonizing negotiations \u2014 punctuated by bouts of violence that many feared would trigger civil war \u2014 to install a new president and form a government, but record time for Lebanon to regain its standing as a top tourist spot.\nNow where an opposition tent city occupied large squares, paralyzing central Beirut and turning it into a ghost town, restaurants are bustling, open-air concerts are being held and gridlock traffic is back.\n\u201cIt\u2019s good to be back\u201d and \u201cIt finally feels like people are living\u201d are common utterances among the droves of Lebanese and tourists crowding the Parisian-style pavement cafes.\nTourism Minister Joseph Sarkis said he expected between 1.3 million to 1.6 million visitors to Lebanon this year compared to around 1 million in 2007 and 2006 \u2014 violent years plagued by political assassinations, bombings and a war with Israel.\n\u201cAfter the (presidential) election, things are much better regarding tourism activity this summer ... which is due to the stability in the coming time,\u201d Sarkis told Reuters on Wednesday.\nPresident Michel Suleiman was elected on Sunday after the seat remained vacant since November, as part of a political crisis between the U.S.-backed government and the opposition, led by Syrian- and Iranian-backed Hezbollah.\nSuleiman\u2019s election was part of a package deal agreed upon by the bitter rivals in Doha, leading the opposition to remove its encampment in central Beirut after it was guaranteed veto power in the new government.\nGULF TOURISTS\nTourism accounted for about a fifth of Lebanon\u2019s gross domestic product before the industry was destroyed by the 1975-90 civil war. Industry experts say the sector could grow to form up to 12 percent of the economy were Lebanon to enjoy a protracted period of calm.\nWhile Lebanese are cautious about whether the new political agreement will last for long, tourists are thronging to the country, judging by hotel bookings and airplane reservations.\n\u201cReservations have picked up very fast ... once we had the deal we covered our loss of 10 percent and gained 20 percent of bookings in flights to Lebanon,\u201d said Nizar Khoury, head of commercial at Lebanon\u2019s flagship Middle East Airlines.\nKhoury said he expected a 20 percent increase in passengers to Lebanon from last year\u2019s 450,000 to 500,000.\n\u201cThe reservations are picking up day by day, so it could even be 30 to 40 percent up,\u201d he told Reuters. \u201cThere was some hesitation from Europe and North America, but now we\u2019re seeing a lot of reservations from (there).\u201d\nSaudi Arabia and other Gulf countries, whose citizens make up the bulk of Lebanon\u2019s tourists, had urged their nationals to refrain from traveling to the liberal Mediterranean country at the height of the crisis.\nBut Khoury said airplane reservations from those countries were picking up fast too.\nLebanon, whose economy is expected to grow more than 3 percent this year because of the deal, is one of the most popular destinations in the Middle East for Arabs seeking its relaxed atmosphere, sandy beaches and mild weather.\n\u201cAs of today, we\u2019ve seen a 30 percent increase in hotel bookings from 2007 and we expect that this will increase day by day,\u201d said the Lebanese Hotel Owners Association\u2019s Alouf who is also the general manager of the Hotel Riviera in Beirut.\nFestivals of performing arts such as the famed Beiteddine festival are also due to be held this summer, having faced repeated cancellations in recent years.\nIn the meantime downtown Beirut is regenerating its image as a smart area rebuilt from civil war ruins by slain former Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri.\nBilal Daya, supervisor of Kiub\u2019s restaurant in central Beirut, had like many other central Beirut cafes, tried to stay open a few months into the protest before eventually closing.\n\u201cWe used to get two or three tables a day, now it\u2019s always crowded,\u201d he said. \u201cAt night there\u2019s no place to sit, you have to wait.\u201d\nEditing by Nadim Ladki, Tom Perry and Mary Gabriel",

        "title": "Mayors face test of spreading foreclosures | Reuters",
        "raw_content": "Mayors face test of spreading foreclosures\nMartha Graybow\nTRENTON, New Jersey (Reuters) - Mayor Douglas Palmer, meeting with visitors at City Hall, points to a large map peppered with dark dots. Each one represents a home or group of homes on the verge of foreclosure, and there are dozens all over the city.\nA pedestrian crosses Chestnut Avenue in Trenton, New Jersey January 4, 2008. REUTERS/Tim Shaffer\nThe dots represent only those properties that the sheriff\u2019s department of surrounding Mercer County has identified as being at risk. Many more they don\u2019t even know about, Palmer said.\n\u201cSome people are even afraid to talk about it,\u201d he said of homeowners facing skyrocketing mortgage payments. \u201cHalf of them don\u2019t even call their lender when they run into problems, so they try to fly under the radar screen, which is the worst thing you can do.\u201d\nThe challenge, said Palmer, is to prevent more homes from ending up as specks on the map, but the resources at his disposal are limited.\nThe site of a pivotal battle in the Revolutionary War, this port city more recently has struggled with drugs, violent crime, joblessness and other urban woes.\nThe latest crisis threatens to derail years of revitalization under Palmer, a four-term incumbent and the first black mayor in a predominantly black city of 85,000 people.\nLike many U.S. cities, it has seen foreclosures surge as people who bought homes in a real estate frenzy in the last few years face mortgage payments that have reset to higher rates they cannot afford.\nMore than 600 properties went into foreclosure or came under threat of imminent foreclosure last year, up from 421 in 2006, according to the mayor\u2019s office, collating data from a number of sources. Those numbers are set to grow this year. As of December, the sheriff\u2019s office had identified 260 properties in danger.\nANEMIC RESPONSE\nIt is not just Trenton that Palmer is concerned about. Foreclosure has become a top priority for the U.S. Conference of Mayors, of which he is president and which is holding its winter meeting in Washington January 23-25.\nPalmer and other mayors say a mortgage relief plan brokered by President George W. Bush\u2019s administration does not help the many people who are already well into the process of losing their homes.\n\u201cThe federal government response has been anemic,\u201d said Mayor John DeStefano of New Haven, Connecticut, where foreclosures rose 80 percent in 2007.\n\u201cMayors are talking to each other about this,\u201d DeStefano said. \u201cNo one else is going to help these homeowners.\u201d\nThomas Cochran, executive director of the mayors\u2019 group said foreclosures could become a defining issue for urban leaders, like the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, which cities were forced to tackle early on when they saw insufficient federal response.\nIn Trenton, Palmer has focused for years on creating affordable housing for middle-income people, including a collection of attractive row houses in a once-downtrodden area known as the Battle Monument district.\nThis was the site of the Battle of Trenton, in which the Continental Army under Gen. George Washington won victory after crossing the Delaware River on Christmas night in 1776.\nThe mayor fears that even neighborhoods like this one, where mortgages are mostly strong, will suffer as foreclosures rise, homes are shuttered, crime festers and property values fall. Police have reported a rise in copper pipe thefts around the city, for example, as vandals strip unoccupied homes, Palmer said.\n\u201cThis cuts across every area of our economy, of the services we\u2019ll have to provide,\u201d Palmer said. When homes are boarded up, neighbors complain of blight such as piles of trash and overgrown grass, he said. \u201cWho\u2019s going to cut it? The city will have to.\u201d\nAs mayors confront the problem, some are aiming squarely at mortgage companies. The city of Baltimore has sued Wells Fargo & Co, accusing the lender of preying on minorities in its lending practices. The company denies the allegations.\nElsewhere, cities such as Cleveland and Buffalo, New York, are trying to hold lenders responsible for the maintenance of homes in foreclosure. Cleveland has sued companies including Wells Fargo and Merrill Lynch & Co Inc seeking to recover hundreds of millions of dollars for lost property tax revenue and the clean-up of abandoned houses.\n\u201cFor some cities, this is going to be a crisis,\u201d said John Vogel, a professor at Dartmouth College\u2019s Tuck School of Business, who studies real estate. A city such as New York \u201cis doing so well on the commercial side and revenue collection, they will be able to deal with this pretty comfortably, whereas a city like Trenton does not have the same sort of resource base.\u201d\nMayor Palmer plans to meet in Trenton on January 14 with representatives of major mortgage lenders and community and faith-based organizations in an effort to help city homeowners on the verge of losing their homes.\nHe\u2019s hopeful there are local solutions that other cities could adopt. One idea is for community development organizations to buy homes in foreclosure and lease them to the former owners while helping them prepare to repurchase them, something already being done on a small scale in his area.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to require a lot of creativity, but the most important thing is the mayors in the country and myself have the will to do this,\u201d Palmer said.\nReporting by Martha Graybow; Editing by Eddie Evans",

        "raw_content": "Does Section 366.2 Require That Breach Of Contract Action Be Filed Within One Year Of Decedent\u2019s Death, Dacey v. Taraday, Tate California Estate & Trust Litigation Blog\nDoes Section 366.2 Require That Breach Of Contract Action Be Filed Within One Year Of Decedent\u2019s Death, Dacey v. Taraday, Tate California Estate & Trust Litigation Blog.\nDacey v. Taraday (California Court of Appeal, First District, June 21, 2011, Case Nos. A125080, No. A125670 Consolidated)\nCalifornia Code of Civil Procedure \u00a7366.2 states:\n(a) If a person against whom an action may be brought on a liability of the person, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether accrued or not accrued, dies before the expiration of the applicable limitations period, and the cause of action survives, an action may be commenced within one year after the date of death, and the limitations period that would have been applicable does not apply.\nIn Dacey v. Taraday the Decedent had entered into a pre-death agreement which obligated the Decedent to make payment to others following the resolution, by settlement or trial, of various court cases that had been filed and were ongoing at the time of the Decedent\u2019s death. The cases did resolve after Decedent\u2019s death. Post Decedent\u2019s death, a party to the agreement (Dacey) sought recovery under the agreement. The administrator of Decedent\u2019s estate refused to make payment. Dacey filed a legal action to recover under the agreement but did not file his action until more than one year following Decedent\u2019s death. Accordingly, the administrator of Decedent\u2019s estate sought to disallow the action for recovery in part based on the Cal. Civ. Code \u00a7366.2 one year statute of limitation.\nThe Court of Appeal held that in this case the legal action was not time barred by \u00a7366.2. The Court held that at the time of the Decedent\u2019s death Decedent had a liability and an obligation but both were contingent on the occurrence of a future event which had not yet occurred. Section 366.2 did not apply as the debt was not enforceable against Decedent while he was alive and the breach of the contract (by the administrator) occurred after Decedent\u2019s death.\nIt should be carefully noted that in every case all potential statute of limitation issues need to be carefully evaluated and that the holding in Dacey v. Taraday was based on the facts of that particular case alone. Depending on facts and circumstances the results could be opposite in other breach of agreement situations, and the results or holding would be different in a situation where a legal action could have been brought or existed on the agreement before the Decedent\u2019s death, in which case \u00a7366.2 probably would apply.\n\u2190 New Spotlight on Elder Abuse and Neglect, Canadian Centre for Elder Law Discussion Paper\nConservatee is the party in interest in a breach of contract action involving the Conservator, Conservatorship of Buchenau \u2192",

However, in hemp, THC is there only in trace amounts, with CBD dominating the makeup of your plant. CBD is non-psychotropic and doesn\u2019t produce a high. It interacts using the body\u2019s natural systems. That makes it a less controversial along with a safer option, while still providing significant benefits to anyone interested In Monkton, Baltimore.\nWhy Must Cannabidiol CBD Oil Supplements Be Utilized In Monkton Baltimore, MD?\nLately CBD has emerged as a compound that his highly popular.

Since that point, CBD oil products have demostrated up in food markets in Monkton, Maryland, medical marijuana dispensaries and doctor\u2019s offices. No medical card is necessary to purchase it.\nThe way that CBD interacts with the body is via the endocannabinoid system or endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS). The endocannabinoid system was basically discovered throughout the late 1980\u2019s regulates the homeostasis in the body, or general balance state, which impacts functions including immune response, pain, hormone regulation, appetite, sleep and mood. Much like an acrobat through to a high wire, our surrounding environment impacts our regular balance. This really is corrected from the endocannabinoid system by mediating the body\u2019s reaction so as to keep things level.\nThe endocannabinoid system is found in all mammals and is composed of countless various cannabinoid receptor sites which are primarily found during the entire immunity mechanism (the CB2 receptors), central nervous system (the CB1 receptors) and brain that act in the neural communication.\nThe endocannabinoid system, however, doesn\u2019t rely only on phytocannabinoids or plant-based cannabinoids. The body can make its very own cannabinoids. 2-AG and Anandamide, which function in the similar way to CBD, would be the endocannabinoids of your body, which are created to be able to control communication somewhere between cells, to mediate the functions of the human body.\nThe endocannabinoid system from Monkton, Maryland clearly is probably the human body\u2019s most critical regulatory systems. However, the majority of individual neglect to do much to support the healthy of the system as a result of cannabinoids not contained in the average diet.\nThe non-psychoactive of cannabis and naturally low-THC hemp plant, grows in a number of countries around the world after which gets imported to the United states for use in foods, nutritional supplements, building materials and textiles.\nThere are millions of different unique hemp varieties in Monkton, Maryland.

This part is apparent and simple.\nHowever, as a result of United states regulatory limitations that relate with processing and growing hemp, the procedure for delivering CBD hemp oil products into a customer\u2019s doorstep in Monkton, Maryland gets more advanced.\nWithin the United states it really is prohibited to develop hemp for commercial purposes, despite the 2014 Farm Bill was passed. Approved reasons to growing hemp is restricted to pilot programs for the purpose of research needs. Even though hemp corps have finally been planted in such states as Minnesota, West Virginia and Kentucky for the 1st time in the last half century. So U.S. hemp cultivation has a lengthy way to go before it is able to meet current domestic demand.\nThat is why all those finished hemp goods the truth is that are offered accessible in the Usa, from material materials, to clothing and food products, which are participate in the imported hemp industry has now surpassed $500 million annually. The size of the key industry with this is amongst the main catalysts to the legalization for hemp in the usa.

        "raw_content": "Budgeting in the Real World\nMore companies are writing budgets that reflect strategy and reduce frustration.\nExotic Newcastle Disease, one of the most infectious bird diseases in the world, kills so swiftly that many victims die before any symptoms appear. When it broke out in Southern California two years ago, it could have spelled disaster for the San Diego Zoo.\n\"We have one of the most valuable collections of birds in the world, if not the most valuable,\" says Paula Brock, CFO of the Zoological Society of San Diego, which operates the zoo. As state authorities ordered the slaughter of millions of chickens, and federal agents went door-to-door killing household parrots and other feathered pets on the spot, keeping the disease out of the zoo and its nearby Wild Animal Park became an enormous unbudgeted expense.\nBird exhibits were shut to the public for several months (the disease, which is harmless to humans, can be carried on clothes and shoes). The tires of arriving delivery trucks were sanitized, as were the shoes of anyone visiting the zoo's nonpublic areas. Zookeeper uniforms had to be changed and cleaned daily. And ultimately, the zoo, with $150 million in revenues, spent almost half a million dollars on quarantine measures in 2003.\nIt worked: no birds got sick. Better yet, the damage to the rest of the zoo's budget was minimized by another protective measure: the monthly budget reforecast. \"When we get a hit like this, we still have to find a way to make our bottom line,\" says Brock. Historically, zoo scientists would have been far more worried about the disease's effect on their budgies than their budgets. But thanks to new planning processes Brock had introduced a year earlier, the zoo's scientists were able to raise the financial alarm as they redirected resources to ward off the disease. \"Because we had timely awareness,\" she says, \"we were able to make adjustments to weather the storm.\"\nBudget reforecasting is nothing new. (The San Diego Zoo's annual static budget was behind the times before Brock took over as CFO in 2001.) But the reaction of the zoo's staff shows the benefits of Brock's immediate efforts to link strategy to the process. It's a move long touted by consultants as a key way to improve people's involvement in budgeting.\n\"To keep your company on a path, it has to have some kind of map,\" says Brock. \"The budgeting-and-planning process is that map. I cannot imagine an organization feeling in control if it didn't have that sort of discipline.\"\nWhen CFO magazine examined the state of corporate budgeting and planning (B&P) seven years ago, the only common ground between finance and operating units was that they all hated the process. Line managers saw B&P as an irrelevant and time-consuming data-entry project. It was equally cumbersome for finance departments, which distrusted the results. And both sides despised the ensuing numbers negotiations, which tended to reward the most politically savvy hagglers.\nBack in 1998, the consultants' general prescription for fixing B&P was threefold: simplify it, share the information widely, and link it tightly to strategy. Technology helps, but the key to success is making people accountable.\nFinding a cure hasn't been easy. But the good news, as the San Diego Zoo demonstrates, is that the prescription applies to companies and organizations of all sizes. Seven years ago, only a handful of large companies dared embark on what experts termed \"the ultimate reengineering project.\" And although the fixes vary, one thing is clear: \"Companies of all kinds are doing a better job of getting line managers, whose decisions drive spending and revenue, to participate willingly in the process,\" says The Buttonwood Group LLP's Lawrence Serven, who wrote CFO's 1998 survey and helped design the current one.\nThat buy-in has had a dramatic effect. Today, according to CFO's survey of 260 finance executives, almost half (47 percent) believe most employees are completely satisfied with the B&P process, compared with just 16 percent who thought so in 1998. And the number who say the value of the B&P process clearly outweighs the cost in time and effort has also increased, from 47 percent to 65 percent.\nThat's not to say Corporate America has tamed the budgeting beast. \"It's great to see progress, though perhaps with the mountain of articles and seminars and software offerings over the years, we would expect to be even further ahead,\" says Serven. For one thing, he warns, \"this more favorable view of B&P is not necessarily the result of improved reliability.\" Indeed, perceived reliability has fallen somewhat: on a scale of 1 to 4 (where 1 is \"Not at all\" and 4 is \"Completely\"), CFOs gave the process a 2.9 for reliability in 1998 versus just 2.5 today.\nMoreover, politics still dog the process. Even today, a majority of respondents told CFO that office politics had some influence. \"The politics are always going to be there,\" says Serven. But as the technology has improved, he adds, it has helped companies achieve certain basic best practices, such as identifying the key drivers of the business and attaching long- and short-term targets to those drivers. \"Transparency [on those issues] goes a long way toward reducing the politics.\"\nThat same transparency has also allowed companies to successfully make the link between process and strategy. The result? \"People working on a budgeting process that is clearly guided and focused by strategic initiatives spend less time arguing about irrelevant details and more time focusing on stuff that matters,\" says Burke Willis, practice director of financial management at benchmarking firm APQC. A recent APQC study shows that the median number of days it takes to prepare the annual budget \u2014 a major source of frustration for all concerned \u2014 is lower for companies that align their plan with strategy numbers (63 days) than for those that do not (80 days).\nLinking Strategy to Budgeting\nA case in point is the San Diego Zoo. When Brock, a veteran of KPMG and ITT, arrived, the strategic plan had no input from finance whatsoever. The zoo's goal is to become \"a world leader in connecting people with wildlife and conservation.\" But there was no connection between that goal and the zoo's resources, even though the latter were improving (revenues have increased from $100 million to $170 million over the past 10 years). \"There was a 10-year plan in a narrative sense, but not in terms of how we were going to make it happen financially,\" she recalls. In 2002, she revamped the strategic plan to incorporate a financial plan.\nBudgeting, meanwhile, was an annual low-level department exercise, with no midyear updates. \"That gap [between high-level strategy and budgeting] had to be bridged,\" she says, a goal that \"had to be understood at the highest levels of the organization, but also sold to the lowest levels.\"\nThat required a sensitive touch with the zoo's scientists and animal keepers. \"You don't want to overload your professionals with something they perceive to be bureaucratic number-crunching,\" she says. \"On the other hand, nobody knows that side of the business better than they do.\" Six months into the job, Brock rolled out software by Timeline Inc. to pull data from the general ledger, and created templates for 145 departments. She limited the number of budget items in each department's report, however, and offered extensive training. \"A keeper in a primate exhibit doesn't have many things on the list \u2014 but nobody knows that list better,\" says Brock. Better yet, she adds, department heads now have an improved understanding of the collective impact of their decisions. A good B&P process, she explains, \"by its very nature creates healthy discussions and buy-in.\"\nAs APQC's Willis suggests, it also speeds the process. Each department now does a close and reforecast within 7 to 10 days of the end of each month, and Brock is now working on a 13-month rolling forecast that will close the timing gap between the budget and the 10-year strategic plan, which is refreshed annually.\nMaking sure budgets are linked to overall strategy is essential, whether the organization is the not-for-profit Zoological Society or the world's largest software company. Microsoft Corp., with 60,000 employees in 99 countries, tackles B&P on a much larger scale. But Marc Chardon, CFO of the company's Information Worker business group, says Microsoft also has processes to ensure that the budgets of its seven businesses are based not only on their own product-development strategy, but also on corporate strategy.\nAt first blush, that would seem to be an enormous challenge. Indeed, Microsoft formally converted its various engineering operations into seven distinct businesses about two and a half years ago, in part because centralization had proved too unwieldy. Another problem was that those engineering groups \u2014 which produced Microsoft software \u2014 had no direct responsibility for sales, and so were \"more focused on product than revenue,\" observes Chardon. Distributing the once-independent field sales force into the P&Ls of the groups \"made the matrix more complex,\" he says, \"but made the [business group] CEOs more accountable.\"\nAt the time of the reorganization, then-CFO John Connors also proposed that each business group have its own CFO who would be responsible for that group's strategy, business modeling and planning, and analysis of market performance and operating expenses. (CFO duties such as treasury, tax, investor relations, and corporate compliance remain centralized.)\nYet the \"paradox\" of running a company of Microsoft's size, says Chardon, is figuring out the right balance between businesses that are returning cash (such as the Information Worker business) and those that are considered investments (such as Home and Entertainment). Such trade-offs even exist within each business, so that B&P \"is right on the cusp\" between centralization and decentralization.\nTo integrate the process, each business reviews its strategy, proposed changes, and investments at the end of every second fiscal quarter with CEO Steven A. Ballmer. The third quarter begins with a \"deep midyear review\" that examines operational trends by geography, business lines, and channels. And based on this \"bottom-up view of what the next 18 months might look like,\" says Chardon, the corporate office begins setting targets for each group. That process, he says, \"basically culminates in a conversation between [Ballmer] and each business group CEO about the ambition for the next year. And that ambition frames the budgeting process.\" Only then does the actual budgeting \u2014 roughly an eight-week effort \u2014 begin at each of Microsoft's businesses.\nOf course, the simpler the budget, the easier it is to tie to strategy. Companies have had a surprisingly difficult time accepting that less is more, but those that do often see dramatic results. Such was the case at Erickson Retirement Communities. \"We'd try to load the data into our ERP, and a third of the spreadsheets would get kicked out because something was wrong,\" recalls Craig Erickson, vice president of financial planning and analysis at the private, family-controlled company.\nBut when new, Web-based budgeting software was introduced in 2002 (in this case, Hyperion Planning and Essbase XTD), the project manager resisted the temptation to simply replicate the existing spreadsheets. Instead, the budget itself was revamped to capture less detail.\n\"That was a dramatic process change,\" says Erickson. About 90 percent of the participants at 11 different retirement communities now use the same basic 15 accounts. \"Before, our dining departments would probably budget 50 different accounts \u2014 amount of frozen fish, fresh fish, baked goods, and so on,\" he says. \"All we really care about is what the food cost per meal.\"\nLikewise, the company replaced more than 20 position types in the dining department's labor budget with just four categories: a low-paid and high-paid category for both hourly and salaried workers. Instead of looking at 20 specific positions, says Erickson, the company now measures the number of full-time employees (FTEs) needed to support 100 residents. \"A metrics focus is now driving the budgets: when you have 900 residents, you should have X number of FTEs,\" he says.\nIn both cases, the result was less work and better metrics for comparing communities. (It takes an average of seven years for each retirement community to reach a mature level of 2,500 residents.) Once the new system was in place, says Erickson, it quickly became apparent that one campus with 900 residents was paying 25 percent more per meal than another of the same size. \"Our use of metrics allowed us to see that this was entirely due to staffing ratios. The way we were budgeting before, we couldn't see that, because everyone's head was in the details,\" he says. \"Our budgets were very precise. But that didn't mean they were accurate.\"\nMaking Managers Accountable\n\"Simplification also leads to greater accountability,\" observes Serven, adding that \"there are fewer places to hide.\" Indeed, performance reviews at Erickson Retirement Communities rely heavily on whether managers exceeded the average performance metrics for their size facility, though equal weight is also given to resident- and employee-satisfaction surveys. \"In the past, managers had a tendency to pad their budgets a bit so they would be likely to come in under budget,\" says Erickson. \"With a metrics-based comparative approach, someone who tries to pad their budget is essentially saying, 'I cannot perform at the same average level as my peers.'\"\nConsultants have been suggesting for years that greater accountability can improve the effectiveness of the B&P process. In 1998, only one-third of respondents told CFO that senior and mid-level managers were held visibly accountable for achieving the plan. Today, 60 percent say that is the case.\n\"The immediate availability of current data drives greater accountability throughout the organization,\" observes Greg Bozigian, director of financial planning for Carnival Corp.'s Princess Cruises and Cunard brands, referring to the company's Web-based Cognos planning tool. \"All senior executives have access to their managers' data and can view their subordinates' latest forecasts and submissions at the touch of a button.\"\nDuring review meetings, says Bozigian, when executives and managers gather together, plans can be projected onto a screen, providing far more than just visibility. \"If an operator's [forecast] numbers are not in line with actual trends, or the operator cannot provide adequate justification for the current projection,\" he says, \"senior executives can change the numbers on the spot. On many occasions, we've changed budgets and forecasts in review meetings.\"\nAccountability can also be tailored to reflect corporate priorities. Two years ago, Hudson Advisors, a Dallas-based commercial mortgage servicer and real-estate asset-management firm, decided that IT expenses were so significant that each department's IT budget and expenditures would be tracked by a special sub-budget in the firm's Hyperion Planning system. While financial results are reforecast quarterly, IT spending is tracked, reforecast, and reported monthly by department, says chief information officer Janis O'Bryan. \"Now everyone individually feels empowered by their forecast,\" she says.\nSoftware Helps\nAs the experiences of these companies suggest, new software systems can support an improved budgeting process, particularly by sharing consistent information. For example, enterprisewide software helps ensure that every division's budget is based on the same assumptions. Princess Cruises uses its software to roll out standardized assumptions for interest rates, foreign exchange, fuel costs, and so on.\nBut the greatest contribution of software packages is their automation capabilities \u2014 the ability to free up more time for financial analysis by speeding data-collection efforts, and moving the management of that data out of loosely controlled spreadsheet environments (though many still strive to look like spreadsheets). According to an APQC benchmarking survey, companies that rely heavily on spreadsheets typically take 30 days longer to complete their budgets than those that don't.\nNonetheless, spreadsheet use remains widespread. Some 67 percent of respondents to CFO's survey say that, apart from spreadsheets, their companies do not use any enterprise or budgeting software. Relying on spreadsheets, however, means that on average, CFOs spend a third of their time inputting, validating, and correcting plan or budget data, while those with enterprise B&P systems spend a quarter of their time on such tasks.\nAt AAA Life Insurance Co., the percentage was even worse. Says CFO Jay DuBose, \"We were spending 80 to 85 percent of our time making sure the spreadsheets were in sync and 15 to 20 percent analyzing the data.\" DuBose is set to roll out a new Cognos system next month to fix the problem. And then you have to add in the wasted reconciliation time, says Clint Allen, Princess Cruises's manager of financial planning. \"You'd send your files out, wait to get your data back, and then lose a week or two just to aggregate it in a form that was useful.\"\nThat time is now spent more productively since the company replaced spreadsheets with a new B&P system. Says Bozigian, \"What has changed is the time we can spend on analysis. Qualitative analysis has definitely increased.\"\nThe next goal: to increase companies' comfort with their B&P improvements, says Serven. Only then will they be able to tie compensation to the process, the ultimate test of accountability. \"That was the final mile seven years ago, and it still is,\" he says. Companies want assurance that they have identified the right drivers, the targets they have set are attainable, and the projects they have developed to hit those targets will do so. Little wonder, he says, that tying B&P to compensation will take \"a couple more years.\"\nThat's not to say no one has attempted it. John McMahan, who leads The Hackett Group's Finance Executive Advisory Program, points out that some 13 percent of companies have tied budgeting accuracy to compensation, and another 25 percent are either in the process of doing so or are planning to do so. This huge increase from years past doesn't surprise him. \"Everyone is trying to integrate and align their goals,\" he says. \"Tying B&P to compensation is just the next logical step in the process.\"\nStill, making that link to pay or instituting any other process improvement requires firms to remain flexible. \"Budgeting and planning can never be stagnant,\" says McMahan. \"Because of the rate of competitive and global change, the process can no longer be tied to the calendar. It has to be continuous, iterative, and externally focused.\"\nAfter all, he says, budgeting and planning \"by definition is inaccurate.\"\nTim Reason is a senior writer at CFO. Research was provided by CFO research editor Don Durfee.\nCoroporate performance management appears to be moving from buzzword to action item. Four out of five companies have identified nonfinancial measures that drive success, but fewer establish targets or regularly report on them. The acid test of basic CPM, says The Buttonwood Group's Lawrence Serven, is to accomplish all of those things.\nHave identified nonfinancial measures that drive company's success\nHave established short-term targets for those measures\nHave established long-term targets for those measures\nHave identified specific projects to achieve those targets\nReport on the progress of those projects at least as frequently as financial results\nPercent of companies that say they do all of the above\nSource: CFO survey\nSpreadsheet Nation\nLove 'em, hate 'em, spreadsheets will never go away. Some 67 percent of those surveyed by CFO magazine, representing companies of all sizes, use only spreadsheets for budgeting and planning (B&P). But in this post-Sarbanes-Oxley era, that could be considered risky behavior.\n\"The built-in flexibility that has made Excel a wonderful financial tool is completely at odds with the Sarbanes-Oxley 'command-and-control' requirements,\" says Jim Winett, managing director of IC Consulting Services LLC. \"Change in controls causes the most havoc,\" he says, noting that in theory any change in formula or even number of rows ought to be documented. So despite their affinity for them, one-third of CFO's survey respondents say Sarbanes-Oxley has made it harder to rely on spreadsheets as part of the business planning process.\nMarc Chardon, CFO of Microsoft's Information Worker division (which is responsible for Microsoft Office and, therefore, for the Excel spreadsheet application), candidly admits that business users struggle with consolidation and access control in Excel. He attributes their difficulty to the application's evolution from a tool for individuals to a tool that is increasingly used collaboratively on top of business applications ranging from ERP systems to general ledgers to revenue-planning tools.\n\"There's an inherent tension between the 'power-to-the-people' origins of Excel and the role it is increasingly called on to play,\" he says. \"We're clearly aware of that.\" Microsoft, says Chardon, is working to make Excel \"a better citizen in the front-end process and a better tool for collaborative work.\"\nNot surprisingly, Microsoft itself uses Excel and SQL Server for B&P, despite the fact that as many as 3,000 people are involved in the corporate budgeting process. At the Information Worker business group, says Chardon, \"we have the advantage of having the most up-to-date version and finance people who were involved in the design of the product. That's why I'm maybe more serene with Excel than other people are.\" Indeed, the Information Worker business group is now pre-beta testing the next version of the Office suite, which he hints will contain improvements to Excel's collaborative and control capabilities.\nIn the meantime, auditors have identified spreadsheet controls to mitigate financial-reporting risk, including password protection, hosting on protected servers, and locking cells within spreadsheets. \u2014 T.R.\nThe Spreadsheet Spread\nCompanies of all sizes say they rely solely on spreadsheets for budgeting and planning, although this is more common among smaller companies (as measured by annual revenues).\n$100 million\u2013$999 million",

        "raw_content": "Talking About Fidel Castro To My Teenaged Daughter: \u2018How Much Of Our Blood Is In American Soil?\u2019\nAsha Bandele, an award-winning author and journalist, explores the complicated relationship between African-Americans and ex-Cuban President Fidel Castro through the eyes of her teenaged daughter.\nDr. Hemant Vankawala was at the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport on September 5, 2005, and he was desperate. Hurricane Katrina had made landfall in the city a week before and directly thereafter, the levees were breeched. The lower Ninth Ward where mostly poor Black lived was submerged and of those who didn\u2019t drown immediately, some were at the city\u2019s Superdome, and others were at the airport, now a triage center, where the bodies were piling up.\nDr. Vankawala dispatched an email to his family like a war correspondent, writing, \u201cThere was no time to talk, no time to cry, no time to think, because they kept on coming.\u201d They, as in the near-dead, the young and old, the mostly poor, the mostly Black.\nTwo days earlier, on September 3, President George W. Bush finally conceded, after initially issuing congratulations, the failure of his administration to care for the people of New Orleans. But on the very same day of the concession, he would reject an offer for assistance, which was so desperately needed. More than 1,000 of the world\u2019s best doctors stood by to assist the people on the Gulf Coast. They were doing what they had been trained to do and had done all over the world when tragedy took hold. Sort of the original doctors without borders. \u201c1,100\u2026medical doctors, with\u202626.4 tons of medications and diagnosis kits, [are ready to care] for the neediest persons in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina\u2026. We stand ready waiting for the US authorities\u2019 response.\u201d\nThe authorization never came because the offer had come from Cuban President Fidel Castro.\nWhen my 16-year-old daughter asks, I try to parse the complicated legacy of Fidel Castro, the man who on July 26, 1959 led a guerrilla army of fewer than 1,000 to overthrew the Batista dictatorship. Former Cuban President Fulgencio Batista had been not only considered brutal, but a puppet of the U.S. government and greedy. He was a known embezzler of the funds that should have been used to support his country folk.\nBut listening to the news, my daughter has only heard harsh descriptors of Castro, like \u201cdictator\u201d and \u201cbrutal,\u201d on a loop. I tell her that\u2019s not the story, at least not the whole of it. I tell her I cannot speak to the witness of those who left Cuba following the revolution. I wasn\u2019t even born then, I say. It\u2019s possible for there to be more than a single truth, I say, and explain that I will speak to what I know.\nI talk about the leader who had the courage to do what America would not: provide safe harbor for Assata Shakur after she was wrongly convicted of killing a police officer in what can only be called a racist show trial. All the forensic evidence indicates she couldn\u2019t have pulled a trigger or even handled a gun, but she was convicted and sentenced to life in prison in spite of the evidence,\nSource: New York Daily News Archive / Getty\nI tell her Fidel gave Shakur a home and a life when she escaped from New Jersey\u2019s Clinton prison in 1979. When they talk about how many he imprisoned, I tell her to talk about Assata or Nehanda Abiodun, another Black political activist who was given shelter by the Cubans. I tell her mass incarceration is the social crisis of really only one government, the United States.\nWe talk about Tanzania, Angola and apartheid South Africa, all supported in their struggles for freedom from White supremacy by Fidel and the Cuban soldiers. I tell her in South Africa on November 26th when Fidel\u2019s death was announced, the flags flew half-mast. I remind her of Haiti, a moment in her own that she can recall. It was Cuban doctors who were there in 2010 and at the ready dispensing life-saving aid.\nDid he kill people, she asks, and I tell her, he did, which is hard for her to hear. Nisa, my daughter, is a young woman who hates guns and fighting and in general, conflict. I don\u2019t know a revolution, with perhaps the singular exception of Maurice Bishop in Grenada, in which the leader of the revolution didn\u2019t execute or have executed those who stood in opposition. Although it\u2019s also true that he was executed by U.S. backed rebels two years into his Cuba-inspired New Jewel Movement.\nOur job, then, I explain is to first ask the right questions.\nHow many people, for example, did the United States kill in defense of its own experiment in democracy? At least 95 percent of First Nation people wiped completely out and yet no one refers to those who first arrived in the Americas as brutal but explorers, even brave.\nSource: Mastrafoto/STR / Getty\nAnd how many Africans were enslaved in order to support the build out of the nation? I ask her how many of our bones do we walk on each day, how much of our blood is in America\u2019s soil?\nHow many died in the Civil War?\nHow many Mexicans to expand the nation? How many Chinese?\nHow many young men of every single race do battle in how many countries? How many in Iraq for weapons never manifested? How many more? Who holds the heights when it comes to killings, I respond, in the name of its nation?\nBut the most important question for her to consider is, what does a human-centered society look like on her watch? I remind her she is part of a Black woman birthed, Queer-led, non-patriarchal and decentralized movement called Black Lives Matter, which is to say that the most important inquiry of all is what revolution can she envision? What tools will she pull together? I ask her how much love, how much hope, how much different would the revolution look if it were imagined by her, my beloved daughter?\nAsha Bandele is an award-winning author and journalist.

        "raw_content": "Femke Bekker, is studying for a degree in Events and Festival Management at Bucks New University. Here she talks about her experience of volunteering for Child Bereavement UK, as part of a six-month internship in the fundraising team:\n\u201cI found out about the internship at Child Bereavement UK from my lecturer. He said it might be a good opportunity to gain some external experience of festival management. I had a look at Child Bereavement UK\u2019s opportunities and decided to apply for the Community Events internship.\n\u201cPrior to this internship I had never volunteered for anything to do with charities in my life. I have always been the kind of person, though, that will volunteer or help someone if I have time. However, it had always been for things to do with the music industry or helping my violin teacher with children\u2019s concerts.\n\u201cWhen I started working for Child Bereavement UK, I was given a target to recruit a minimum of fifty volunteers over the next six months for the series of Let\u2019s Rock music festivals, run by UK Live, that raise funds for the charity. Child Bereavement UK recruits volunteers to help with scanning entry tickets and selling wristbands and raffle tickets at the festivals, which are held in various locations across the UK.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t sure where to start at first, but everyone in the office was really helpful. I worked together with the Digital Marketing Executive to promote the opportunity on social media. As Child Bereavement UK deals with a sensitive subject, I was given advice on how to talk to people who have been bereaved of a parent or child. I found this an incredibly useful skill not only in my role at Child Bereavement UK but in my personal life and at university, where I am a senior resident at my halls of residence.\n\u201cAs part of my role I had to call local businesses asking them to promote the opportunity to their employees and community. When I started at the charity I was incredibly nervous before making a phone call, especially when it was cold-calling a business. By the time I left, I would rather call someone than email them as it\u2019s much faster. Now I barely even prepare conversations in my head before a phone call. I am so glad my manager pushed me out of my comfort zone as this is an incredibly useful skill.\n\u201cPart of my role was looking after each volunteer, from dealing with expressions of interest in volunteering to sending out an email telling them how much the event they attended had raised. When the festivals started in May, I had to coordinate nearly 800 volunteers (with help from my manager and some colleagues) which was very challenging, especially as I was only in the office two days a week. This has taught me how incredibly important it is to organise your email and keep track of everything that is going on. I used to be a person that would make a note on my to-do list to do something later. With the number of volunteers and all the things you need to do, it\u2019s easy to forget something, so I\u2019ve learned to do things straight away. Turns out this is also beneficial in your personal life.\n\u201cI attended four of the festivals where I worked with different colleagues each time. It\u2019s really useful to learn how to work with different people, you see how everyone works differently and you learn to adapt. Eventually I started running the briefings at the festivals and coordinated the volunteers on the actual festival day. Coordinating eighty volunteers in thirteen hours, on five different shifts, is very demanding.\n\u201cWorking as an intern at Child Bereavement UK was incredibly useful. You gain so many valuable office skills, such as email etiquette, representing the charity on the phone, understanding data protection rules, how to use Excel (which is super useful) and generally, how to work in an office. These are skills that you wouldn\u2019t necessarily get on a festival site or at a music venue but are things that will continue to be useful in your professional career. In my opinion, it doesn\u2019t matter how good you are at organising a festival, if you can\u2019t make a phone call or write an appropriate email, you will struggle with a lot of aspects of your future job. The internship was a great way to gain these skills in a safe environment.\n\u201cOn top of that, I got cake on my last day and loads of glitter on my desk! And then I spent the rest of the day counting the number of wristbands we had left..!\u201d\nInterested in doing an internship with Child Bereavement UK?

While SWIFT will start collecting details on these mandatory controls from Q2 2017, the enforcement of mandatory requirements will start from January 2018. SWIFT will then conduct inspections from internal and external auditors to ensure compli ance of these controls.\nApplying these standards will help raise the security bar for customers on the SWIFT network and support to prevent and detect fraudulent use of their infrastructure. Implementation of these standards will also increase security awareness and education in the on-going fight against cyber-related wire fraud.\nIn the last eight months, at least four government-owned banks were hit by hackers to create fake trade documents that may have been used to raise finance abroad or facilitate dealings in banned items.\nAs per the audit done with the current member banks, SWIFT has observed that there is a significant opportunity to strengthen the transaction banking channels of Indian banks. According to data with the ministry of finance, top 51banks in India have lost ` . 485 crore from April 2013 to November 2016. Nearly 56% of the money lost was due to net-banking thefts and card cloning. As per estimates, there are at least 15 ransomware attacks per hour in the country and one in three Indians fall prey to it.\nTags : Security, Financial Services, cyber security, Banks, Banking, audit, swift, reserve bank of india, Mumbai, India, Education",

If a tax bill of this magnitude were presented to the President before a proper framework for paying down debt, strengthening Social Security and Medicare, providing tax relief to middle-income families, and funding critical initiatives has been established, the President's senior advisors would not recommend that he sign it.\nLast week, the President and the bipartisan Congressional leadership expressed a common interest in working together to pay down the debt, strengthen Social Security and Medicare, provide tax relief to middle-income families, and fund critical initiatives. Achieving these objectives is central to the continued strength of our national economy. As the President's budget makes clear, the Administration supports targeted marriage penalty relief. But marriage penalty relief needs to be done in the right way, at the right time, and in the right framework. Proceeding on one expensive part of the legislative agenda before the others are even defined simply does not make sound fiscal policy.\nThe marriage penalty relief provided by H.R. 6 is poorly targeted, expensive, and would add additional complexity to the tax code by causing millions of taxpayers to be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax (\"AMT\"). In part because of poor targeting, the total cost of the proposal would be more than $173 billion over 10 years. Moreover, the phased-in raising of the 15-percent bracket for joint filers, which accounts for more than sixty percent of the total cost of H.R. 6, would provide no tax relief for seventy percent of all married couples. Finally, Treasury estimates that, by 2010, H.R. 6 would increase the number of couples subject to the AMT by over 8 million. In contrast, the President's Budget would provide marriage penalty relief in a targeted, progressive, and fiscally responsible manner.\nThe Administration applauds the Democratic position that addresses a number of policy concerns, including progressivity, complexity, and cost, and recognizes the large tax cut should not take effect before action on a number of other priorities such as Social Security, Medicare, and debt reduction.\nH.R. 6 would affect receipts; therefore, it is subject to the pay-as-you-go requirements of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. The Administration has not yet completed its scoring of the bill, but it is evident that the magnitude of the proposed tax cut ($2.8 billion in FY 2001, according to the Treasury Department) and the absence of any offsets could cause a significant sequester of Federal resources.",

        "raw_content": "Measuring Enterprise Architecture Processes\nIn most enterprises that applies Enterprise Architecture will there be a need to measure how the enterprise is progressing from adapting the Enterprise Architecture Program and there will be some stakeholders who would like to know what value or benefits they gain by investing (and keep financing) the Enterprise Architecture Program.\nEnterprise Architecture Processes\nImplementing Enterprise Architecture principles, standards, systems and strategies would need some changes, processes and scoping. In this particular paper the idea of Enterprise Architecture processes deals with the concept that a chief architect sets a set of tasks in motion in order to uncover systems, social networks and business processes. The Enterprise Architecture processes differs from business processes by the architectural processes changes systems, business processes, information systems, IT, technology and social systems. Business processes deals only with optimizing the flow of production and goods.\nThe Enterprise Architecture Processes deals with implementing the structured approach to Enterprise Architecture and to keep maintaining and maturing it. It is quite right that the Enterprise Architecture program would have to be maintained in order to ensure its functional in the long run.\n\u2013 W. Edwards Deming.\nThe chief architect would have to develop some KPIs in order to measure the processes that are a part of the Enterprise Architecture Program. In order to gain an overview of the processes it becomes a necessity to measure the processes before the initiatives have been initiated in the Enterprise Architecture Program. In the ideal situation the chief architect would have to investigate how the business performed before the Enterprise Architecture Program was initiated. The measurement should be used in order to improve the decision makers abilities to make the right decisions. In order to investigate if the proposed changes that have been implemented with the Enterprise Architecture Program have improved the situation for the enterprise, the chief architect would have to measure the \u201cas-is\u201d situation for the processes and \u201cto-be\u201d would have to be like. After the processes have been implemented the ideas would have to give the decision-makers an idea of or if the enterprise has moved closer to a desired state. For this key performance indicators can be a rather good tool for measuring.\nThe next section of the paper deals with the concept of key performance indicators.\nIn this paper a key performance indicator is defined as a number (simple indicator) indicating how a process or segment of an enterprise works. Key performance indicator is a simple tool that gives the various stakeholders data for interpretation and as such the KPI can\u2019t stand alone it has to be accompanied with in-depth analysis documents.\nKey performance indicators (KPIs) are suitable situations when the decision-makers would have to a quick overview of how the enterprise works (processes, segments and systems).\nThe KPIs would have enable the chief architect and the various other profiles that are a part of the Enterprise Architecture group with the appropriate data from the various systems.\nKPIs have a significant factor within the concept of the Enterprise Architecture Program due to the various elements of the enterprise\u2019s architecture works.\nThe KPI is needed is used as by the decision-makers in order to find out if there are any particular problems in the day to day management. Each of the KPIs can guide the decision-makers and it would be able to misguide the decision-makers. In order to find out if the KPI is adding the right value to the the overview that the decision-makers understand the KPI and how it should be used. Likewise does it become a necessity to deal with the KPI in order to understand if the KPI can be used in order to gain the overview in the in the enterprise. KPIs are by all means simplified and it becomes a necessity for the chief architect and for that matter the enterprise architects investigates if the KPI is too simplified and if the KPI can be implemented in the enterprise at hand.\nValidating the KPIs\nIn order to validate the KPIs the chief architect would have to go into the situation of the various groups in the enterprise e.g. do the various actors understand what is to be measured and how they are measured. It is a necessity to challenge each of the KPIs and their stakeholders in order to find the best possible way to ensure that the KPIs measures contributes with value.\nFive Things to do in KPI \u2013 EA Development\nAs promised I will hereby present five things that the chief architect could do in order to develop usable KPIs:\n1) Identify what KPIs are relevant for the enterprise from a business point of view. Associate other KPIs when the business KPIs have been identified.\n2) Probe the views of the enterprise\u2019s decision-makers and those who would make use of the KPIs. Ensure that the business-stakeholders understands why the KPIs have been chosen and what they represent.\n3) Articulate a draft for the KPIs and simulate how they impact the decision-makers and if they give the right kind of indication to the decision-makers. Ensure that you incorporate business-politics in your plan for implementing the KPIs.\n4) Refine the KPIs and educate the various stakeholders and decision-makers in how the make use of the KPIs and when not to make use of them.\n5) Build in the KPIs for the Enterprise Architecture program and ensure that the KPIs are visible in all the various forms of governance structure that are directly related to the Enterprise Architecture program.\nTags: Chief Architect, Enterprise Architecture, Enterprise Politics, Guide, KPI, KPIs, Models, Probing, W.

        "title": "Inside Hillary's Basket of Deplorables: A Retired Military LGBT Voter \u22c6 Conservative Firing Line",
        "raw_content": "M.L. Fischer is the kind of woman that you want to be friends with, you want to invite her to backyard BBQ\u2019s and ladies night out. She has a free-flowing quick sense of humor and has a fantastic amount of love and respect for everyone she encounters. She is a statistician by profession and has her Master\u2019s degree in Supply Chain Management (Statistical Analysis). She is retired from the military after 32 years she jokes \u201c32 years way back in the closet.\u201d M.L. Fischer went to the polls and hoped to have her voice heard in this election by casting her vote for Donald Trump.\nShe felt genuine fear when what she refers to as \u201cThe Hillary Email Scandal\u201d came out. The potential damage to national security and all the back door financial dealings scared her immensely. She explains that at the start of the election she was a Ben Carson supporter and that the first time she took notice of Donald Trump was during one of the debates in which Dr. Carson\u2019s ear piece was not functioning properly and he didn\u2019t come up on stage when he was supposed to. Donald Trump stopped proceedings and brought Dr. Carson up on stage when he could have ignored it and carried on. That was the first time she noticed Donald Trump might not be the bad guy that he was portrayed to be.\nIt\u2019s really about the economy, she stresses to me. Being laid off from her very first job after leaving the military impacted her, but not as badly as those that were laid off with her. While she had the V.A. to fall back on for medical care and other support, most of her co-workers that were laid off at the same time did not have that security net. This lay off occurred on the 31st of the month and everyone that was laid off had their medical benefits stopped on the 1st of the following month, leaving them overnight without a job and without health insurance. Seeing the impact to those she cared about as friends and co-workers really made her aware of the economic impact of job loss throughout the country.\nShe strongly believes that race relations in this country will improve under President Trump stating, \u201cI\u2019m not saying there still won\u2019t be the occasional moron with a sheet on his head, but I think race relations will improve significantly, once the economy gets better and people have a purpose again. We have a common enemy and that enemy is not black or white, that\u2019s how the country feels, that the common enemy is not black or white. The common enemy is flaming liberalism that doesn\u2019t allow people to speak their minds, it doesn\u2019t allow people to speak without fear of being called racist or politically incorrect, it\u2019s silenced the people. I think improving the economy will improve race relations, and having a common enemy, which is liberalism. It\u2019s not about I don\u2019t like you because you\u2019re fill in the blank, I don\u2019t like your ideology.\u201d A sentiment that is felt by so many Americans right now; the desire to see our country healed and all working together for a better future.\nM.L. Fischer never felt that Trump was against her or anyone in her LGBT community. She feels he views all people through the same lenses \u2014 are you a responsible good human being who takes care of business? This lens is how he looks at all people equally. Her final thought was \u201cPeople are starting to notice similarities with each other rather than differences and all people are starting to see the hypocrisies in liberalism; I want to be your dictator and if you don\u2019t like it I\u2019m going to do everything in my power to keep you under my thumb.\u201d\nM.L. Fischer says, \u201cYou know I am Hillary\u2019s target market, white, highly educated, lesbian, and she still didn\u2019t sway me by telling me I was supposed to vote for her.\u201d Like so many others in this country right now M.L. Fischer is ready to stand up for what is right and has become aware that if she and others like her don\u2019t stand up against the liberal policies and agenda, we will not truly be free. It\u2019s time to come together and stand against the real tyranny that is among us.\nSOURCEM. L. Fischer\nPrevious articleWhy Mick Mulvaney should be appointed OMB Director by President-elect Trump\nNext articleConservative group warns: Human tracking bill could lead to involuntary chipping",

Each player rolls the dice and moves around the board, landing on spaces for training, crime scenes, take a suspect to jail, or subpoena for court.\nSpecial plays come from landing on dispatch, car stop and merit coins.\n\u201cI wanted people to have a better understanding of what police do and some of the laws they are expected to enforce,\u201d said Martin, a Kingman resident since 2009 and formerly with the Orange County (California) sheriff\u2019s department.\nHe awoke from a dream about the game five years ago and wrote down details for Cop\u2019s Corner in the middle of the night.\n\u201cIt was like a God download,\u201d Martin described. \u201cI was reminded of Romans (chapter) 13 where it talks about how we are to submit to authorities, honor and respect those that God has put in place on our behalf. To say the least, I was very excited about the whole concept.\u201d\nCop\u2019s Corner board game being played. Photo by Hubble Ray Smith.\nIt took 30 minutes for Martin to lay the game out on the inside of a cereal box, and then he started working on a prototype. He invited friends over to play the game.\nHe hired a patent attorney to find out if there was another game like it,and got a copyright on the game. Board Game Manufacturing, based in Pahrump, Nevada, designed the first edition.\nMartin went to Kingman schools to test the game, donating six games to White Cliffs Middle School teacher Stephanie McKowan. Martin\u2019s son, Steve, is a sixth-grader at the school.\n\u201cIt\u2019s competitive on the right kind of level,\u201d McKowan said. \u201cI think it teaches them different things police officers have to do and things they have to watch out for.\u201d\nThe game is available for kids to play when they get their work done and have some free time, the teacher said.\n\u201cIt gives them a mental break and allows them to interact without technology. A lot of them never played board games,\u201d she said. \u201cI said, \u2018No electronic devices,\u2019 and the kids were like, \u2018Good.\u2019\u201d\nsee the full write up here: https://kdminer.com/news/2017/oct/22/understanding-what-police-do/",

        "raw_content": "March 27, 2011 in Uncategorized | Tags: 'Security'/Surveillance, Checkpoints, Companies Working on settlements, International Companies in Palestine, Israel's walls, Prisons\nof their city council.Legal opinion on G4S activities in the West Bank\nPrior to its 11 March statement, in an effort to answer concerns from the Danish media and civil society, G4S contracted Danish expert on international law Hjalte Rasmussen to write a legal opinion on G4S\u2019s activities in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Rasmussen based his legal opinion on his previous, similar study for G4S done in 2002. During his three-day trip to Israel and the West Bank at the end of January 2011, he visited a number of banks and supermarkets in East Jerusalem, and a shopping mall in the illegal settlement of Maale Adumim. He also collected information from G4S in London and Israel He concluded that G4S\u2019s activities did not violate any national or international law.\nAlthough Rasmussen did not visit Israeli prisons, he says in his opinion that there is no evidence of \u201csystematic abuse of prisoners in Israeli jails,\u201d in contradiction to the documentation of numerous human rights groups.\nThe arrest and detention of political prisoners is one of the primary means Israel has historically employed to try to repress the Palestinian struggle for liberation.\nRasmussen argues in his report that inmates in Ofer prison are \u201ccommon criminals\u201d that have been tried by independent, neutral criminal courts, \u201clike inmates in other prisons on Israeli soil\u201d. He writes that he did not come across any information on systematic abuse of prisoners in Israeli jails.\nDan Church Aid (DCA) and Amnesty International Denmark expressed their discontent in the Danish press about the poor quality of Rasmussen\u2019s report, the former describing it as \u201cshameful\u201d as it contains so many errors. Secretary General of Amnesty International Denmark, Lars\nNormann J\u00f8rgensen, said that \u201ca case as serious as this one requires more thorough observations in the areas concerned than Hjalte Rasmussen has done.\nRights of Palestinian political prisoners violated by Israel\nContrary to what Rasmussen writes, the rights of Palestinian political prisoners are systematically violated by Israel. All Palestinian political prisoners, including child detainees, are administratively classified as \u201csecurity prisoners\u201d as if Palestinians, by simply being Palestinians constitute a threat.\nAs \u201csecurity prisoners\u201d, Palestinian prisoners are denied the rights to phone calls, furloughs, and visits from friends and relatives, other than close relatives, are denied. In addition, prisoners are denied the right to visits that allow them to spend some time in private with their legal partner.\nIn a briefing note on rights of Palestinian Prisoners of March 2011, Israeli and Palestinian human rights organizations report that 5, 640 Palestinian political prisoners were imprisoned in Israel by January 2011. Among them were 37 women, 213 minors, and 187 Palestinians that are held\nin administrative detention. Thirty of the detained children are between twelve and fifteen and a half years old. Over 2,000 Palestinian children have been charged with security offenses between 2005 and 2009. They were held without charge for up to 8 days and prosecuted by military courts.\nSee briefing note at http://www.mezan.org/upload/11648.pdf\nThe rights of political prisoners from occupied Palestine are violated, because of their systematic transfer to prisons in Israel, contrary to the Fourth Geneva Convention, in particular articles 76, 66, and 49, which forbid an occupying power from transferring and holding prisoners from an occupied\nterritory in the occupying state. This transfer policy affects sixty percent of the Palestinian child detainees. Following the transfer to prisons in Israel, lawyers and family members who live in the West Bank and Gaza need a permit to visit Israel. The restrictive permit system is an obstacle\nfor prisoners to meet their lawyer or family.\nIn addition, as signatory of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Israel should take \u201cthe best interests of the child\u201d as \u201ca primary consideration\u201d in all its actions concerning children. In reality, Israel does not meet the obligations of the convention in its treatment of Palestinian child detainees. For example, although the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC) urged Israel to never hold criminal proceedings against children in military courts, Palestinian children continue to be tried in military courts. The same counts for the call to never hold children in administrative detention (see http://www2.ohchr.org/english/bodies/crc/docs/CRC-C-OPAC-ISR-CO-1.pdf).\nFurthermore, Bana Shoughry-Badarne of the Public Committee against Torture in Israel in Jerusalem, highlighted Israel\u2019s long-term policy that \u201callowed the use of torture by investigators and those active in intelligence work\u201d when she spoke at the UN International Meeting on the\nQuestion of Palestine in Vienna in early March. Shoughry-Badarne said that in 1999, certain methods of torture had been banned, such as\nflogging, handcuffing of prisoners, covering their heads with wet bags, compelling them to sit in uncomfortable positions for long periods, and sleep deprivation. However, all these methods of violence continue to be employed, \u201cdespite a total ban on torture enshrined in human rights\ntreaties and covenants to which Israel had acceded\u201d. Moreover, Israeli security authorities have developed new physical and mental tortures, according to Shoughry-Badarne.\nG4S security services to Israeli prisons\nG4S states in its own promotional material that it supplied a perimeter-defense system for the walls around the Ofer prison compound, all the security systems in Keztiot prison, and a central command room in Megido prison. According to G4S these prisons incarcerate 4,900 Palestinian \u201csecurity prisoners\u201d. (See http://electronicintifada.net/v2/ article11678.shtml).\nBy providing services to Israeli prisons, G4S contributes to the facilitation of Israel\u2019s violations of rights of the Palestinian political prisoners.\nIn their 11 March statement, G4S announced that it will \u201caim to exit a number of contracts which involve the servicing of security equipment at the barrier checkpoints, prisons and police stations in the West Bank.\u201d In response to our request for clarification as to whether the contracts with prisons in Israel were excluded, G4S refused to give additional information. The company instead sent an email repeating the exact wording of its statement, leading to the conclusion that G4S will not end the delivery of \u201csecurity services\u201d to prisons in Israel.\nMoreover, the company states it \u201cwill aim to complete this exit as soon as possible, but also recognize that we have contractual obligations to our customers which we must take into consideration\u201d. This could mean that G4S will stay involved in the provision of security services in the\nWest Bank for years.\nIn any case, in its 11th March statement, G4S has explicitly excluded the delivery of \u201csecurity services\u201d to illegal settlements. In 2004, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) reaffirmed the illegality of the construction of the wall and settlements in the occupied West Bank, including\nEast Jerusalem. According to the ICJ, construction activities should stop immediately and the wall and settlements be dismantled. By providing security services that contribute to sustain illegal settlement businesses, G4S contributes to Israel\u2019s violations of international law. G4S\u2019s claim that\nthe provision of these security services are not discriminatory or controversial and \u201chelp to provide safety and security for the general public no matter their background\u201d is unfounded. The general public in the illegal settlements is solely Jewish.\nAs long as G4S provides security services to Israeli clients in the OPT, including East Jerusalem, and to prisons in Israel BDS activists should keep the company under pressure.\nG4S Israel statement march 11-1-1\nEdinburgh University students vote to ban G4S : NL-Aid\n[\u2026] in the delivery of security services to illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank and Israeli prisons. Indeed, G4S has stated in its own promotional material that it supplied security services to the [\u2026]\n\u00ab The Deadly Experiment \u2013 Interview on Non Lethal Weapons with Dissident Island Radio\nCorporate Watch talk given to All Party Parliamentary Committee on Palestine on Companies Exploiting the Jordan Valley \u00bb",

I am an optimist\u2019\nText of Bill Moyers\u2019 speech May 18, 2006, at the PBS Showcase Conference, Orlando, Fla. He spoke after PBS gave him its third annual Be More Award.\nJump to sections where Moyers:\nthanks associates for their part in his work,\ntells why the best is yet to come,\nrecalls discussions in the Johnson White House,\nlists what public TV could do for democracy\nexplains why CPB didn\u2019t get stable funding\nSee also Current\u2018s coverage and full text of the speech.\nThank you for this moment. I consider your award the singular honor of my long life in public broadcasting. But it is also humbling.\nI know humility is a rare posture for broadcast journalists, but in accepting your award I have to acknowledge a fundamental truth of our work: There are no Lone Rangers. Those of us on camera get the credit, but others do the heavy lifting. Pull back for a wide shot and you would find me standing on the shoulders of a large tribe of kindred souls.\nI have never fooled myself about how this works. The good ideas were only occasionally my own. In the theology of television, it is a given that God made producers before She made little green apples; no on-air journalist in America would survive a single broadcast without producers who bring order from inertia in the chaos of production. Researchers dig up the dots and connect them. Editors work miracles on the Avid. And no production would ever happen without camera and sound crews as cool as surgeons, as tough as marines, and as brave as astronauts.\nAnd what would people like me do without sympathetic executives, comptrollers, unit managers, administrative and support personnel who also believe that public broadcasting is a calling and not just a career. This goes for colleagues on the PBS staff, too. Their jobs are unreasonably difficult but often rewarding. They can hardly make a decision without being second-guessed or causing offense. A more selfless and devoted group I\u2019ve not known since I helped organize the Peace Corps in 1961. Without these friends and allies I would have been just another voice in the wilderness.\nWithout you \u2014 friends and colleagues from across the country \u2014 there would be nothing but wilderness. The bible of public broadcasting opens with this verse: \u201cIn the beginning was the station.\u201d The local station, usually with a small and overworked staff, is first among equals \u2014 the central pillar of our system. Paula Kerger\u2019s selection as our new president nails it to the door. She is up from the ranks. Although she was still in junior high when I did my first broadcast, time and circumstance would bring us together at WNET in New York. Never did I pass her in the hall that I didn\u2019t think: The game has a future.\nEvery president of PBS has been a good friend and colleague, from Hartford Gunn and Larry Grossman to Bruce Christensen, Ervin Duggan, Pat Mitchell and now Paula. I could not have had a more nurturing professional home than WNET, led for years by John Jay Iselin and then by Bill Baker. Early on I was embraced by some of the pioneers of our community: Bill Kobin, Jack Sameth, Jerry Toobin, Bob Kotlowitz, Fred Friendly, Ward Chamberlin. Those names will not be familiar to many of you, but all of us have inherited a legacy forged from their passion and vision.\nJoan Konner was my executive producer at the founding of our independent production company. She went on to become Dean of the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, and she is here today, with her husband and my friend, the producer Al Perlmutter \u2014 himself a legendary broadcaster, responsible with Jack Willis for one of the greatest of all public television series, The Great American Dream Machine. Joan and Al were my partners in producing Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, and they have just completed production of a special you will be seeing within the next year on the mystery of love. Check your local listings. I\u2019ve had a sneak preview \u2014 and I loved it, no pun intended.\nJudy Doctoroff is here, too. She was just out of Yale, \u201cwet behind the ears\u201d as we say in Texas, when we founded Public Affairs Television. Who would have imagined that she would go on so soon to play such a role in creating a major body of PBS programming? Well, I won\u2019t be modest: I imagined it. Joseph Campbell must have too. He told me that when you take on a large work, it\u2019s often the case that invisible hands appear to carry you forward. Obviously, he had Judy Doctoroff in mind. I\u2019ve been in her hands a long time now. For several years she has served as executive vice president of our production company, and this week my partner Judith and I asked her to become president. You see, Paula, I am optimistic: there is a future. You and Judy symbolize it for me. One generation passes, another comes. We\u2019re lucky in the one coming.\nJudith Davidson Moyers is here. We married 52 years ago, in our junior year at the University of Texas. As Charlotte Bronte said of her Alfred, \u201cWe intended to be married this way almost from the first; we never meant to be spliced in the humdrum way of other people.\u201d She has been president of our production company \u2014 and will remain as our chief executive officer. She has also been the source of many of our best ideas, executive producer of many of our most successful series and specials and my co-executive editor on everything \u2014 from On Our Own Terms and Close to Home to Genesis, Healing and the Mind, Becoming American, America\u2019s FirstRiver and Now with Bill Moyers. In a just world, your award would bear her name. Judith and Judy and Diana Warner, our comptroller who has been with us since day one, have hired more talented people, inspired more creativity, and brought more award-winning projects to completion, on budget, than I can recount here.\nI have had so many exhilarating experiences with so many colleagues across these decades that I am as rich in memories as Midas was in gold. This moment and this award add immeasurably to the storehouse. And I thank you.\nBut I am the past and you are the future. And the best is yet to come.\nHow can that be, you ask? There\u2019s not enough money. Competition is fierce. America is polarized. Our adversaries are powerful. The market is god. Privatization is the gospel. The public is fickle. And the age of the Internet is upon us. Public broadcasting is lucky even to be here \u2014 and you say the best is yet to come?\nYes, I do. I am an optimist.\nThe Italian philosopher Antontio Gramsci once explained that he practiced \u201cthe pessimism of the intellect\u201d and the \u201coptimism of the will.\u201d Me, too. My day job as a journalist is to see the world as it is, without whitewash or illusions. But I am also a father, grandfather, husband, neighbor, and citizen. Like everyone else I have some responsibility, as I pass through, to help fix what\u2019s broken. \u201cPessimism of the intellect\u201d requires of the journalist candor in reporting, facing the facts in what can be an impossible world. But \u201coptimism of the will\u201d means expecting a confident future and getting out of bed every morning to do something to help bring it about.\nSo I\u2019m a qualified optimist. I believe the best is yet to come \u2014 IF!\nI\u2019ll come back to the IF.\nWhile Paula was right this morning to say that we can\u2019t walk backward into the future, the rear view mirror can be very revealing. So I want to take you on a short trip \u2014 a trip back in time, to l964. Paula Kerger was just five years old. I was 30, and a White House assistant to President Lyndon Johnson. My portfolio included domestic policy, which is why the President dispatched me to a meeting at the Office of Education to learn something about \u201ceducational television.\u201d I hadn\u2019t even heard the term before. But this was the first of several meetings that would lead one year later to the Carnegie Commission.\nThose of you with grey in your hair may remember that the Carnegie Commission coined the phrase \u201cpublic television\u201d in calling for a broadcasting system that would be publicly funded but not government run, an important distinction to keep in mind.\nThe Carnegie Commission report has been my other bible for 40-plus years now. It\u2019s our equivalent of the Declaration of Independence. From it came the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967, creating CPB and the system that has survived, creakily but quite often creatively, against the odds, to this very moment.\nSome of you were not even born in 1964. But the language of the Carnegie Commission is embedded in your DNA. We owe our mission to it, and when we grow unmindful of it, those traces have a way of paying us a visitation \u2014 like the ghost that haunts Marley in A Christmas Carol \u2014 calling us back to first things. Just consider that letter written to the Carnegie Commission by E.B.White \u2014 the letter Patricia Harrison quoted this morning.\nWhite said public television:\n\u201cshould arouse our dreams, satisfy our hunger for beauty, take us on journeys, enable us to participate in events, present great drama and music, explore the sea and the woods and the hills. It should be our Lyceum, our Chautauqua, our Minsky\u2019s, our Camelot. It should restate and clarify the social dilemma and the political pickle.\u201d [full text]\nLBJ was bemused by the reference to the \u201cpolitical pickle\u201d \u2014 he\u2019d been in many of one in his life and was responsible for many others. But for all his Hill Country roughness, he did not think these words to \u201chigh-falutin\u2019.\u201d He had become wealthy through a virtual family monopoly on media in Austin, Texas, and he knew that something was missing from American television. There was more to what the medium could be if it were not measured by ratings and the bottom line.\nSo here we are, in the White House, in 1964. Radio \u2014 the first genie out of the electronic bottle \u2014 is 30 years old. Radio had been greeted as a potential force in the public interest, a stage for the best of the creative arts, a venue for courageous journalism, and a forum for robust debate. In the Radio Act of 1927, Congress plainly said that \u201cin exchange for the use of public airways radio stations had to serve \u2018the public interest, convenience, or necessity.\u2019\u201d\nTelevision had been around hardly a decade. Great expectations also greeted its arrival. And like radio it had enjoyed a brief \u201cgolden era\u201d of innovation and creativity. But also like radio, television came with the potential to arouse the salesman\u2019s wildest dreams. With television came mass audiences of people who would open their purses and pocketbooks and their hearts and minds to anyone who could afford the commercials that paid for the programs. In just a matter of years, the promise of the new medium as a public forum had been hijacked by commerce with its raw ambition to deliver to advertisers the largest number of buyers for their products and dreams. Advertising became the gatekeeper of the airwaves.\nWhat this meant to our national life was troubling. We didn\u2019t begrudge commerce its due. We were not fools \u2014 we recognized that societies structure their ways of communication to reflect their dominant values. And economic values \u2014 getting and spending in the pursuit of happiness \u2014 are among America\u2019s dominant values. Nor were there any Marxists among us; no one wanted broadcasting to be the hand-puppet of the state. But it was impossible to ignore the consequences of a purely market-driven media. Since advertising provided media companies their revenues and profits, the marketplace of ideas was usurped by the need of broadcasters to court and please large advertisers.\nWe thought democracy deserved better. It was one thing for information to be commercialized, privatized, and devoted exclusively to profit. But democracy doesn\u2019t live by bread alone; it lives on ideas, too, and occasionally it needs a full-course banquet of truth. Once television became the tool of commerce, only the price tag mattered. Contrary ideas, critical journalism, public debates, and programs that served the tastes, interests, and needs of significant but less than mass audiences were rare items in the inventory of the marketplace. In only a few years television had become, in the words of the FCC chairman \u201ca vast wasteland,\u201d a phrase that quickly entered the lexicon of lost opportunities.\nSo we sat around in those meetings \u2014 and I emphasize the sitting. Unlike the White House geniuses of West Wing and Commander in Chief, we couldn\u2019t think fast and brilliantly on our feet; in fact, one of our best thinkers had hammertoes and could hardly move at all; all of us on the staff had to run just to keep up with the President as he walked, so there were no inspired, wittily composed, totally spontaneous and perfectly parsed conversations on the run from the Oval Office to the Rose Garden or from the Situation Room to the bathroom.\nWe sat around in meetings and talked about what television could do for democracy.\nWe talked about how television could be much more of an open marketplace of ideas, available to everyone.\nWe talked about how instead of merely offering predigested views of current events or defining \u201cdebate\u201d as the off-setting opinions of two politicians with vested interest in the issue, television could be more of a real battle of ideas, where one person might actually change another\u2019s mind.\nWe talked about how television could be more of a storyteller, providing people with some coherent sense of the broader social forces that affect their everyday world \u2014 portraits of the world and not just snapshots.\nWe talked about how television could be more diverse, exposing us to the experiences and thoughts of people living on the other side of the country or the other side of the globe, including thoughts that might rattle the cage of our own settled opinions.\nWe talked about how television could be more independent and how it could encourage journalism that would help check the corruption and abuse of power \u2014 something that was very much on the minds of our founding fathers when they provided for the constitutional freedom of the press.\nWe talked about how television could be more of a mirror held up to America, revealing that we are not all white, or male, or tall, or blonde, or blue-eyed, or brave, or Protestant, or rich, or powerful.\nWe talked about how television could be more than the boss\u2019 stenographer \u2014 how it would convey the interests and opinions of more people than the economic and political elites; how it could in fact help those elites understand the questions regular people asked every day \u2014 how to get a job, how to pay the doctor, how to put food on the table, how to get the kids through school, how to afford old age \u2014 the very questions corporate media scarcely valued.\nAll this talk led to something. It led us to believe that what democracy needed was a truly free and independent broadcasting service \u2014 free of both state and commerce. The President sat in on some of these meetings. He liked what he heard, and when he sent to Congress what became the Public Broadcasting Act of l967, it was with a ringing request that \u201cthe public interest be fully served through the public airwaves.\u201d\nThis was no immaculate conception. We had a fight on our hands. A zealous ban of opponents tried to kill the idea altogether. Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina said public television would be taken over by communists.\nWhen Sen. Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania allowed that public television should \u201cbring to this country the gift of satire \u2026 revive the days of Swift and Addison\u2026\u201d and \u201cmake fun\u201d of senators, representatives and the President, the Senate fell silent. No one seconded the motion.\nBut a turning point came when Sen. Winston Prouty of Vermont, a Republican of the old school, read into the record that letter from E.B. White calling on public television to put the idea of excellence over the idea of acceptability. When Pat Harrison quoted that this morning, I could imagine Winston Prouty smiling there in heaven \u2014 or wherever Republicans go when they leave Congress.\nThe bill passed. When he signed it, the President said that the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 \u201cannounces to the world that our nation wants more than just material wealth; our nation wants more than \u2018a chicken in every pot.\u2019 We in America have an appetite for excellence, too \u2026 At its best, public television would help make our nation a replica of the old Greek marketplace, where public affairs took place in view of all its citizens.\u201d\nHe got it. Even a man hardened and compromised by the dog-eat-dog, knock-down-drag-out backroom brawls of hardball politics knew that a vigorous artistic, cultural, and intellectual forum is important to the health of democracy. So he said at the signing, \u201cToday we rededicate a part of the airwaves \u2014 which belong to all the people \u2014 and we dedicate them for the enlightenment of all the people.\u201d\nTo pay for this enlightenment, the Carnegie Commission had recommended an excise tax on the sale of television sets that would then be placed in a trust fund specifically for public broadcasting. President Johnson thought this was a good idea \u2014 probably the best, he said, to remove public broadcasting from efforts by either party to intimidate and manipulate it. You can\u2019t imagine what a radical idea this was \u2014 to create a federally funded public broadcasting system that would simultaneously be financially independent of the government.\nAnd that was the catch. It was a bold idea, and it went nowhere. I want to tell you why because there\u2019s a lesson in it for us right now.\nThe President asked his old friend Wilbur Mills to come down to the White House and talk it over. Wilbur Mills of Arkansas was the powerful chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee where all tax legislation must originate. We wouldn\u2019t get the excise tax without him. So he and the President met in a small room next to the oval office. They gossiped for an hour or so, shared rumors about friends and enemies, relived old battles in Congress, schemed about bills then pending \u2014 and then LBJ began to press the flesh: what Washington called \u201cThe Treatment.\u201d\nStanding, sitting, leaning in, cajoling, whining for pity, teasing, bribing, threatening, the President was all over Mills. And when he got to the payoff \u2014 when he was ready to drive home the pitch and close the deal \u2014 he told a story. He told a story of the two little boys in Texas [one of them was the writer and broadcaster John Henry Faulk from whom LBJ himself first heard the story] who were playing in the hen house when they spied a chicken snake in the top tier of nests, so close it looked like a boa constrictor. Their courage drained right out of their heels \u2014 actually, LBJ said, it ran down their legs and on their overalls. And in a matter of seconds they had made a new door through the henhouse wall. One of their mothers came out and asked what the fuss was all about, and when they told her, she said: \u201cDon\u2019t you boys know chicken snakes are harmless? They can\u2019t hurt you.\u201d One of the boys, rubbing his forehead and his behind at the same time \u2014 and the President was now standing, towering above Wilbur Mills, illustrating precisely what he was describing said: \u201cYes, ma\u2019am. But they can scare you so bad, it\u2019ll cause you to hurt yourself.\u201d\nAnd that, said the president to the chairman, is why we need to give these people (public broadcasters) some room to \u201cprotect them from the likes of you and me. If we don\u2019t, they\u2019ll be so scared they\u2019ll hurt themselves.\u201d\nLyndon Johnson knew well the wisdom of the old saying: \u201cThe pen may be mightier than the sword, but an eraser is mightier still.\u201d He knew, because he kept a drawer full of erasers.\nWilbur Mills listened. The President was sitting down again, leaning forward almost in the other man\u2019s face and these two old crafty cardsharks, drinking buddies, shrewd and tough as nails, were looking right in each other\u2019s eyes. Then the Chairman said to the President (I am paraphrasing): \u201cWell, that\u2019s all well and good, Lyndon. But you were up there long enough [in Congress] to know we ain\u2019t gonna give money to folks without some strings attached. We don\u2019t work that way.\u201d\nThat was that. It meant a life on the dole for this new enterprise. And it left us vulnerable.\nJust look at what happened as early as 1970. Public television broadcast a documentary called Banks and the Poor, holding up to critical scrutiny financial practices that exploited poor people. With the \u201cBattle Hymn of the Republic\u201d as its score, the film closed with a crawl listing the names of 133 Members of Congress who were directors of banks or had bank holdings.\nAll hell broke loose. President Nixon and his director of communications, Patrick Buchanan, were so outraged that the President vetoed CPB\u2019s reauthorization bill and wouldn\u2019t sign another until the chairman, president, and director of television for CPB resigned. When public television hired two NBC reporters \u2014 Robert MacNeil and Sander Vanocur \u2014 to co-anchor some new broadcasts, Nixon commanded Buchanan to \u201cget the left-wing commentators who are cutting us up off public television at once \u2014 yesterday, if possible!\u201d They failed at that, but they did succeed in cutting CPB funding for almost all public affairs programming, and they knocked out multiyear funding for one of the most promising of all innovations \u2014 the National Public Affairs Center for Television (NPACT), which had been created to provide independent journalism for the sake of democracy. They also took away from PBS its ultimate responsibility for the production of programming.\nActually, they would have strangled the infant in the crib \u2014 or like Queen Hera at least toss a couple of snakes into it \u2014 except for the courage of a man named Ralph Rogers. Ralph Rogers was a powerful and wealthy industrialist from Texas, a Republican \u2014 also of the old school\u2014who was chairman of our station in Dallas. Principled and wise, crafty and independent, he believed in the first amendment and he saw the White House intimidation as an assault on freedom of the press. He once told me, with a wink and sparkle in his eye, that he figured a Democratic White House could one day do what the Republican White House was trying even then to do, and that wouldn\u2019t be good, either. So Ralph Rogers stood up to his own President and led a nationwide effort that saved public television. Ralph Rogers is one of my heroes. Without him, it\u2019s unlikely we would be here today.\n(Paradoxically \u2014 and perhaps poetically \u2014 the very National Public Affairs Center for Television that President Nixon and Patrick Buchanan had tried to kill, put PBS on the map by re-broadcasting in prime time every night that day\u2019s Watergate hearings, drawing huge ratings night after night and establishing PBS as a force in the country.\nBut the shock of those assaults had a lasting impact, and the pressure never wholly let up. NPACT couldn\u2019t sustain its funding and disappeared. A Woody Allen special that poked fun at Henry Kissinger was cancelled, and far too many other unconventional programs never had a chance. Even when the strings are not tightly pulled, you knew they are there, and the worst thing that came out of that ugly episode was that we have never been able to completely shake out of our collective mind the fear that the chicken snake might prove to be a boa constrictor.\nThat\u2019s why my heart raced a little faster this morning seeing Paula Kerger, Pat Harrison, and John Lawson on the same platform. There\u2019s not a na\u00efve hair on any of those three heads, I said to myself, and there\u2019s plenty of moxie inside each of them. It\u2019s just possible, I thought, that the stars are aligned and that the three of them can get fixed the most broken part of our system \u2014 our finances. We only get 15 percent of our budget from the federal government, but the truth is we\u2019re unconsciously held hostage to it. That\u2019s also the public perception. Michael Booth of the Denver Post says public television needs a radical makeover to free itself of the bland programming designed not too offend. A liberal public interest group has called for cutting the strings to Congress \u2014 \u2018Time to unplug CPB\u2019, said the headline, arguing that the money requires us to focus on a very narrow slice of the political debate lest we antagonize the powers-that-be.\nThe dilemma is that federal support is large enough to be a permanent crutch but too small to ease our need for corporate underwriting. That leaves us between a rock and a hard place. It leaves us with our credibility vulnerable. I looked up one night to see an underwriting spot for the National Mining Association. A beautiful spot it was \u2026 lovely pastoral colors \u2026 pleasing landscape \u2026 nice tones. You would have thought the National Mining Association is underwriting the restoration of the Garden of Eden here in the 21st century. But I know something about the National Mining Association. It\u2019s the industry\u2019s trade association \u2014 propaganda, lobbying. Over the years, as a journalist, I have returned again and again to the conflicts of interest at the Department of Interior where the revolving door keeps mining lawyers and lobbyists shifting back and forth between government and industry. I\u2019ve covered time and again the story of mountain top removal \u2014 the ugly scalping of the hills, the polluted runoff, the black streams and unsafe drinking water. It ain\u2019t pretty. Furthermore, I happened to see this underwriting spot not long after the death of the miners in West Virginia earlier this year. And I felt sad watching it. I thought we were betraying those miners\u2019 families. Their taxes support public broadcasting, and here we were, taking their taxes, then turning around and selling their airwaves \u2014 the public airways \u2014 for the purpose of propaganda. It doesn\u2019t strike me as right \u2014 using a publicly funded venue for private propaganda \u2014 and it will bring us down in the long run if we don\u2019t fix it. I believe it can be fixed, and that Paula, Pat and John will deserve their own marble busts in the lobby of PBS and CPB \u2014 right there beside E.B. White \u2014 if they take it on.\nIt won\u2019t be easy. We\u2019re getting hit from all sides. Conservatives don\u2019t want to increase our funding at all, for philosophical reasons. And liberals are going to balk if we wind up letting corporate money diminish the difference between us and commercial television.\nWe tried to fix this once before. Ten years after Carnegie One, I was privileged to serve on the Second Carnegie Commission. Funding was a mess, and our assignment was to take a hard look at the situation. We were unsparing in our diagnosis, and we came up with some promising prescriptions.\nBut before anyone could act on our recommendations a tidal wave of free market ideology swept across the country. Suddenly powerful voices were calling for public broadcasting to be privatized. Some of the first heavy rounds came from the libertarian economist Milton Friedman on a series \u2014 get this \u2014 on PBS. I\u2019m not making this up. On a series carried by PBS Friedman argued that the quality of ideas should be measured by the demand they generate among media consumers \u2014 in other words, let advertising decide who gets heard and who doesn\u2019t. I don\u2019t mind telling you this was a bizarre experience. Here was one of the country\u2019s best known conservative economists arguing from a publicly funded platform on behalf of allowing free speech to be determined by market forces that wouldn\u2019t provide his own ideas a hearing on commercial television.\nThen there was George Will. George got his television start as a pundit on public television \u2014 on a series called Assignment America that was first anchored by yours truly. Now, in the \u201980s, George was writing that without any kind of market accountability public television had become a taxpayer luxury for a tiny elite. The noted flamethrower David Horowitz was on the warpath, too, calling for nothing less than public broadcasting\u2019s scalp and enlisting Newt Gingrich to wield the hatchet. We were suddenly besieged by people whose reverence for the market was equaled only by their disregard for institutions not subjected to commercial chastening.\nWhat they conveniently overlook is the contradiction between the logic of the economic market and the logic of the marketplace of ideas. My conservative friends \u2014 yes, I have conservative friends (we meet at night, on a park bench in the shadows, to protect their reputation) \u2014 tell me the market is the divine hand at work on earth. At the same time they deplore the crudity, vulgarity, and violence of popular culture, and they try to keep their kids away from television as long as possible so they will not be polluted by the flood of mass-produced and mass-consumed images that every day erode the psychological and moral boundary between life and make-believe. Yet the very thing they deplore is market driven.\nYou hear the argument all the time that much of the PBS national schedule has been effectively replicated \u2014 at no expense to the taxpayer \u2014 by market-driven cable channels. Even Garrison Keillor was quoted in The Nation (on the left) and The Wall Street Journal (on the right) saying \u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s any reason for public television to exist anymore. I honestly don\u2019t \u2026 They are so far from being an important force in broadcasting, and their accomplishments are so far in the past. There isn\u2019t anything that they do that can\u2019t be done and done better by any one of a dozen cable channels. They\u2019ve been completely rendered obsolete by cable television.\u201d Well, someone recently put the lie to this canard by simply posting a list of typical prime-time offerings from one week in May on the eight cable networks often cited by our detractors as the private sector\u2019s answer to public television.\nOn A&E: \u201cKnievel\u2019s Wild Ride.\u201d \u201cCold Case Files.\u201d \u201cBounty Hunters.\u201d \u201cAmerican Justice.\u201d\nOn Bravo: \u201cWest Wing\u201d (multiple episodes nightly). \u201cMillion Dollar Recipe: The Annual Pillsbury Bake-Off.\u201d \u201cQueer Eye for the Straight Guy.\u201d \u201cCelebrity Poker Showdown.\u201d\nOn CourtTV: \u201cCops.\u201d \u201cForensic Files.\u201d \u201cPsychic Detective.\u201d \u201cExtreme Evidence.\u201d\nOn Discovery: \u201cAmerican Chopper.\u201d \u201cAmerican Hot Rod.\u201d \u201cMonster Garage.\u201d \u201cPower Tool Drag Racing.\u201d\nOn Hallmark USA: \u201cWalker Texas Ranger.\u201d \u201cTouched by an Angel.\u201d \u201cJudging Amy.\u201d\nOn History: \u201cHitler\u2019s War.\u201d \u201cDeep Sea Detective.\u201d \u201cModern Marvels.\u201d\nOn The Learning Channel: \u201cIn a Fix.\u201d \u201cUntold Stories of the ER.\u201d \u201cExtreme Plastic Surgery.\u201d \u201cSports Disasters.\u201d \u201cOverhaulin\u2019.\u201d \u201cWhat Not to Wear.\u201d\nThere you have it: The vast wasteland\u2019s barren garden, the fruit of the loom of technology that promised a thousand flowers would bloom, only to produce a row of potted plastic plants grafted from the same wilted bud of imagination and creativity.\nCome on, world. There is no pure free market except in the fantasy of ideologues contending for the Oscar of hypocrisy. As our own Wick Rowland \u2014 the president and general manager of KBDI TV/12 in Denver, Colo. \u2014 has reminded us: \u201cIn this bastion of capitalist democracy that is the United States of America, commercial media have benefited from the same sort of government largesse that offers tax breaks and other incentives to major industrial and retail corporations. Legally required government notices and preferential postal rates have provided substantial support for newspapers. Commercial broadcast stations have profited enormously from their monopoly rights to highly valuable public airwaves, and the wealth of the cable and telecommunications industries has derived in large part from government grants of exclusive rights-of-way and frequencies. The cumulative value of these government subsidies of the private media has far exceeded the amount of federal support for public broadcasting.\u201d\nCongress even gave the media mogul Rupert Murdoch a tax break equal to about one fourth of public broadcasting\u2019s annual appropriation from Congress, money he might well have turned around and invested in his own ministry of information, Fox News, which regularly beats up on public television for being publicly funded.\nBecause market-driven television has failed to provide a true marketplace of ideas it has betrayed the founders\u2019 belief that constitutional freedom of the press would produce an uncensored competition of ideas, opinion, and information, giving Americans the means to think as citizens. What we have instead is a very narrow range of political debate usually between partisans of two parties both deeply corrupted by their complicity with the media and their dependence on big money. Given these realities you can make an intellectually honest case that for democracy to flourish, some journalism needs to be isolated from the market altogether. The novelist Salman Rushdie \u2014 whom you will soon be seeing in the premiere broadcast of our upcoming series entitled Bill Moyers on Faith and Reason \u2014 put it this way in a speech to the American Society of Newspaper Editors: \u201cSkepticism and freedom are indissolubly linked, and it is the skepticism of journalists, their show-me, prove it unwillingness to be impressed\u2026(their) disrespect for power, for orthodoxies, for party lines, for theologies, for vanity, for arrogance, for folly, for pretension, for corruption, for stupidity, maybe even for editors\u2026that is perhaps their most important contribution to the free world.\u201d\nOne reason we get such pale and unquestioning journalism in America is that skepticism and irreverence toward the prerogatives of power and privilege are exactly what corporate media moguls don\u2019t want from the journalists who work for them. If they did, there wouldn\u2019t have been such gullible groupthink from the press when America went to war in Iraq on the basis of false information, faulty intelligence, fallacious propaganda, and flagrant secrecy. It\u2019s what happens when the news media becomes a complacent conduit for the government and multimedia corporations, failing to challenge authority, and passing information spun carefully by special interests both in and out of government.\nWhat an opportunity this is for us.\nWhat a future is ours \u2014 if we don\u2019t confuse the chicken snake for a boa constrictor and commit preventive capitulation and if we refuse to allow government officials and corporate spokesmen to set our agenda with no scrutiny of their words and deeds and no sifting of the truth from spin. I took to heart those scholarly peer-reviewed studies some years ago that looked at PBS\u2019s national news and pubic affairs programming and found it hard to distinguish our guest lists from those of commercial broadcasting. According to these studies, our programming had taken on a pro-establishment and pro-corporate tilt that sets narrow political limits for the discussion of public affairs. Whether government officials and Beltway journalists talking about political strategy or corporate sources talking about stock prices or the economy almost exclusively from the investor\u2019s viewpoint, public television, these studies reported, all too often were offering the same kind of discussions, and a similar brand of inside-the-Beltway discourse, that is featured regularly on commercial television.\nI was reminded of George Orwell\u2019s chilling novel 1984 in which the government develops a language called Newspeak that will keep people docile and happy. One of the writers of the new official dictionary says to the protagonist Winston: \u201cDon\u2019t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? Has it ever occurred to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now? The whole climate of thought will be different. In fact there will be no thought, as we understand it now. Orthodoxy means not thinking \u2014 not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconscious.\u201d\nThere\u2019s a way to keep that from happening. It\u2019s right in our own PBS guidelines. Go to Paragraph F, under headline \u201cCourage and Controversy.\u201d\nYou will read there: \u201cThe ultimate task of weighing and judging information and viewpoints is, in a free and open society, the task of the audience.\u201d\nYou will read there the pledge we have made as public broadcasters to seek \u201ccontent that provides courageous and responsible treatment of issues, and that reports and comments, with honesty and candor, on social, political and economic tensions, disagreements and divisions.\u201d\nYou will read there the promise that our \u201coverall content will offer a broad range of opinions and points of view, including those from outside society\u2019s existing consensus\u201d \u2014 those from outside society\u2019s existing consensus.\nWe couldn\u2019t ask for a clearer statement of our mission.\nWe couldn\u2019t find a more affirmative reason for being.\nWe couldn\u2019t want a more resounding call to action.\nI read those guidelines from time to time when I grow faint of heart, or my knees turn weak, or my resolve falters after I\u2019ve been attacked by people who don\u2019t like us \u2014 people representing power, privilege, or ideology who despise any journalist who shatters the silence. Reading them, I realize again how corporate media pollutes the meaning of \u201cfair and balanced\u201d with the pretense that two well-rehearsed sound bites by representatives of self-serving interests constitutes \u201canalysis\u201d of the news.\nI believe in \u201cfair and balanced.\u201d\nI say let\u2019s be more fair than anyone else. Let\u2019s be as fair to Main Street as we are to Wall Street \u2014 to the working men and women of America as we are to the big corporations, big government, and big investors.\nLet\u2019s be as fair to poor families as we are to the First Family and the Royal Family (Yes, I looked up one evening, as more deaths were occurring in Iraq, more suffering was being endured on the Gulf Coast, and more Americans were losing their healthcare, and there on my public television screen was a special on \u201cThe Royals and their Pets.\u201d)\nLet\u2019s be as fair to the skeptic of official policy as we are to its spokesman, as fair to the commoner as to the celebrity, and as fair to the lived experience of ordinary people as we are to the calculated opinion of think tank experts.\nI\u2019m for balance.\nLet\u2019s balance the spin with the evidence, the rhetoric with the record, and opinion with reporting.\nLet\u2019s balance what we\u2019re told with what we know. Where did this idea come from that politicians and ideologues define objectivity? No one knows what objectivity means. You\u2019ve heard of Irving Kristol. He\u2019s the Tony Soprano of the neocons \u2014 their godfather, one of the most influential conservatives of our time. Surprisingly, I sometimes agree with Irving Kristol. And I especially agreed with him when he said: \u201cThe commitment to so-called \u2018objective\u2019 and impersonal reporting is, in practice, a rationalization for \u2018safe\u2019 and mindless reporting. To keep a reporter\u2019s prejudices out of a story is commendable, to keep his judgment out of a story is a guarantee that truth will be emasculated.\u201d\nLet\u2019s balance the view from Washington with the view from the country. I saw this letter to the editor in the paper this morning and brought it with me. The writer was joining in the debate over whether Stephen Colbert had violated decorum at the White House Correspondents\u2019 dinner in Washington recently when he satirized the President and the journalists. Other letters had pointed out that hardly anyone in the room laughed and accused Colbert of being offensive. This writer had a different take. He wrote: \u201cMr. Colbert wasn\u2019t really interested in making any one in the room laugh. He was playing to the home audience on C-SPAN. Mr. Colbert views the D.C. insider \u2018culture\u2019 the same way most Americans do, as a cesspool of narcissism, corruption, and detachment from reality. Mr. Colbert, like most Americans, thinks that the press corps is generally spineless, complacent, and frequently complicit in government deception. The audience didn\u2019t get the jokes because they were the jokes. He hit too close to home.\u201d\nWe ought to hit close to home, too \u2014 no matter who\u2019s in power.\nLet\u2019s balance the complaint of ideologues and their patrons in Congress and the press with the unarticulated pain and silent lament of the maid in the hotel room, the waitress in the coffee shop, and the clerk in the shopping mall \u2014 all struggling to make ends meet in an economy rigged against them. On second thought, let\u2019s give the maid, the waitress, and the clerk a voice. Let\u2019s give them a say. They deserve it. Their taxes pay for this system.\nAnd let\u2019s balance programs written by the National Mining Association and Boeing with programs underwritten by the United Mine Workers, Consumer\u2019s Union, and Citizens for a Fair Economy. If they can\u2019t afford the underwriting, let\u2019s at least give them a hearing.\nMy friends, I close with a proposal for us. How we can get back on the map again, as we did with those Watergate hearings thirty years ago when for the first time we served notice with those hearings that we were going to be a force for democracy. Here\u2019s what I mean:\nPaula Kerger talked this morning about the telecommunications revolution that is rolling over us. My friend, the public advocate Jeff Chester writes cogently about it in his forthcoming book Digital Destiny: New Media and the Future of Democracy. It\u2019s on everybody\u2019s mind \u2014 this flood of compelling video images propelled by the interactivity of the internet, delivered through digital TVs, PCs, cell phones, and countless mobile devices. If we can afford it, we\u2019ll have access to an ever-expanding array of news, entertainment, and information from around the world. Every day brings some technological innovation, some new industry merger, and some dazzling new promise. It\u2019s hard for anyone to keep up, almost impossible for ordinary people out there to know what it means to their lives or our society. That\u2019s the way the big guys want to keep it \u2014 the giant media companies, the lobbyists, the politicians. They know where they want to take us; they just don\u2019t want us to know until we get there and it\u2019s too late for us to do anything about it. If they are successful, we will be living in a communications system that offers us endless entertainment and satisfies our every consumer desire. But whether it will honor the life of the mind, nurture the heart, encourage free expression, education, social justice, and economic security is up for grabs.\nRight now, as we meet, the big story is how the media giants are working to transform the internet into a digital tollbooth where, says Jeff Chester, \u201cwe will travel over a corporate-run piece of discriminatory electronic real estate where we will be numbered and evaluated \u2026 based on income, race, and class\u2026so we can be better sold, round the clock, all the time.\u201d Even as we meet here, the lobbyists are using their money and their access to have Congress, the White House, the Courts and the FCC to help transform the internet from what one Federal Court called \u201cthe most participatory form of mass speech yet developed\u201d into a system of corporate-controlled pipes. Yet it\u2019s happening largely behind the scenes, with little public debate \u2014 one important measure was recently slipped through a House committee in the dark of night. That\u2019s what happened with the Telecommunications Act of 1996 while we weren\u2019t looking, and democracy was betrayed \u2013 it changed our media and our country. It\u2019s happened every time: some new technology arrives and we\u2019re assured paradise is just around the corner. We\u2019re told America is about to become more democratic, more open, with greater freedom of choice. Then it\u2019s hijacked, and the public is frozen out. First radio, then television, then cable \u2014 all promised democracy would be served \u2014 but when we woke up they had taken our birthright and turned the first amendment into a private franchise.\nIt\u2019s happening again. The telecommunications revolution is upon us and special interests are counting on controlling it from inside the Beltway while no one is looking.\nLet\u2019s not let it happen this time. Let\u2019s make the telecommunications revolution our story. Let\u2019s tell the public how the decisions are getting made, who\u2019s making them and why, who will win and who will lose. Let\u2019s own this story with reporting, hearings, commentary, talking heads. Let\u2019s get the country involved in the debate about where the internet is going, where our digital revolution is headed, how our media can foster civic participation, make government more accountable, give low-income people a place at the table. We have it in our power to bring the country into the story. We are public broadcasting, right? We\u2019re not congressional broadcasting \u2014 that\u2019s C-SPAN. We\u2019re not the White House network \u2014 that\u2019s Fox News. We\u2019re the only broadcasting operation in the country with the words \u201cpublic\u201d and \u201cservice\u201d in our name. That\u2019s our constituency \u2014 not the politicians and Washington officials \u2014 but the public. The theologian H. Richard Niebuhr once said the most important question a society can ask is: \u201cWhat\u2019s going on?\u201d Well, that\u2019s what we can do now \u2014 tell the American people what\u2019s going on with this digital revolution. Inform them and awaken them. They\u2019ll do the rest.\nI\u2019ve been around a long time now. What great company all of you have been. But I really think the best is yet to come. We\u2019ve never been more needed. Democracy is troubled. Our two parties are wholly owned subsidiaries of Big Money and subservient to Big Media. The majority of the American people don\u2019t know where to turn, who to trust. Here we are \u2014 with a mandate to put the public first. A new leader who is the right person in the right place at the right time, and with roots in communities around the country that constitutes the building blocks of hope. We have it in our reach truly to be the Public Broadcasting Service \u2014 a force of democracy.\nPhoto: Peter Krogh\nPBS: Moyers inspires\nviewers to \u2018be more\u2019\nOriginally published in Current, May 30, 2006\nPBS President Paula Kerger presented the third annual PBS \u201cBe More\u201d Award to Bill Moyers, the award-winning journalist whose programs have inspired and provoked PBS viewers since 1970.\nThe PBS \u2018Be More\u2019 Award honors \u201cextraordinary people who inspire viewers in every community across the country to \u2018be more,\u2019\u201d Kerger said. The phrase riffs off a branding campaign that \u201cexpresses the PBS mission to not only inform but also to inspire the citizens we serve.\u201d Earlier recipients were Fred Rogers and Jim Lehrer.\nMoyers\u2019 programs for PBS since 1970s \u201chave explored almost every theme under the sun and even those above it,\u201d Kerger said. The titles include Bill Moyers\u2019 Journal, Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, On Our Own Terms: Moyers on Dying, Free Speech for Sale, Trade Secrets, Healing and the Mind, Close to Home: Moyers on Addiction and Now with Bill Moyers. His latest series, Bill Moyers on Faith & Reason, debuts on PBS June 23, and his production company will deliver three investigative documentaries to PBS this fall.\nMoyers said it was humbling to receive the award. \u201cI know humility is a rare posture for a broadcast journalist, but in accepting your award I have to acknowledge a fundamental truth of our work: There are no Lone Rangers. Those of us on the screen get the credit, but others do the heavy lifting. Pull back the camera and you will see me standing on the shoulders of a large tribe of kindred spirits,\u201d he said.\nCurrent\u2018s article about this speech.",

        "raw_content": "Looking back, there were warning signs of a bicycle ride around the world. They\u2019re jammed under a bed in my mum\u2019s house: shreds of cardboard memorialising hitch hikes of my teenage-years. There are marker-penned petitions for \u2018M1 north\u2019 and \u2018Milton Keynes\u2019 (pleading to go there was an irony that didn\u2019t strike me at the time). There\u2019s even an \u2018Anywhere\u2019 to hold up on dead stretches of road, and which reads now as an exciting opportunity for roving sociopaths with a taste for kids.\nIt was a potent wanderlust. I exploited the long school holidays, thumbing rides to each quarter of the compass; clambering into trucks bound for Scotland or streaking south to Cornwall. Often, I had no target; smitten with the simple sense of movement, a nascent fetish to pick up and go.\nIn 2009 I was a doctor at Guys and St Thomas\u2019 NHS Trust in central London. I worked in Emergency Medicine, Intensive Care and on medical wards. But in January 2010 I waved goodbye to colleagues, friends and family from outside the hospital, and for the next six years I pedalled across 75 different countries, clocking up a distance of 86,209 km (53,568 miles) by bicycle. That\u2019s a distance equivalent to more than twice around the planet, or 61 times the length of Great Britain, or 23,808 laps of the Coventry ring road, or almost a quarter of the way to the moon, or 9743 Mount Everests if somehow you\u2019d cloned the mountain and laid it end to end in space. Whichever sounds most impressive.\nFrom the baked deserts of Syria and Afghanistan to an outstandingly untoasty Mongolia mid-winter, I dodged landslides and leaping camel spiders, towed a rollerblader across Uzbekistan, contracted dengue fever (and the urge to tell everyone about it), pedalled through blizzards, tropical storms and volcanic eruptions, marvelled at my own spiralling dishevelment, began a relationship with Ol\u2019 Patchy \u2013 a personable inner tube, and survived both a run-in with a gunman and the marauding hoards of school children armed to the milk-teeth with snowballs in Kent.\nI\u2019m back in the UK now, working part-time at the same hospital so that I can devote the rest of my time to writing a book. I haven\u2019t yet enrolled in spinning classes but I\u2019m now a bit of a running addict.\nI\u2019m also a freelance journalist with work published in a variety of magazines and newspapers \u2013 from political opinion and health pieces in the Guardian, to travel in the Telegraph, the BBC, CNN, Geographical, Adventure Travel, Wild, Action Asia, Outer Edge and Cycle.\nMy thirst for adventure has also taken me to the 5610 metre summit of the active volcano Damavand in Iran, to Wales to summit every mountain over 3000 feet in 24 hours, to New Caledonia to hike across the island with a bivy bag and tarp and, as a 19-year-old, to South America to cycle the length of Chile with my 17-year-old brother.\nI\u2019m an ardent though very amateur photographer and a progressively less bashful public speaker (and sometimes, I moonlight as a DJ.).\nTweets by cyclingthe6",

        "raw_content": "Are These the 5 Best Shotguns and Semiautomatic Guns on Planet Earth?\nVideo Analysis Above: How Would a WarGame Decide a Major War?\n5 Best Shotguns\nA shotgun is a firearm, typically a long arm that is fired from the shoulder, that instead of a single bullet fires a number of smaller pellets. Shotguns are chiefly sporting arms, useful for hunting birds or other small, fast-moving game, but also have military and civilian self-defense uses. The ability to project a devastating pattern of lead or steel shot to short ranges is also valuable in urban or jungle environments. This makes a properly fitted out shotgun an excellent weapon for home defense or close quarters combat.\nDeveloped by the prolific American firearms designer John Moses Browning, the Winchester Model 1897 pump-action shotgun was better known as the \u201cTrench Gun\u201d in World War I. Originally designed as a civilian sporting gun, the Trench Gun version sported a twenty-inch barrel, making it easier to handle in the narrow trenches of the Western Front, a bayonet lug for hand-to-hand combat and a heat shield. Trench Guns were used not only to clear narrow trenches during attacks but also, interestingly enough, to shoot down hand grenades flung towards American lines. The six round tubular magazine made it a formidable adversary when fired lengthwise down an enemy trench; a single 1897 shotgun could send fifty-hour .33 caliber pellets downrange in three seconds or less.\nRecommended:Uzi: The Israeli Machine Gun That Conquered the World\nRecommended:The M4: The Gun U.S. Army Loves to Go to War With\nRecommended:Why Glock Dominates the Handgun Market (And Better than Sig Sauer and Beretta)\nOne of the most common shotguns in circulation is the venerable Remington 870. A manual, pump action shotgun, the \u201c870\u201d first hit the civilian market in 1950. The 870 is sold in a variety of configurations, with barrel length ranging from eleven inches to thirty, magazine capacity ranging from four to ten shells, and sold in shell calibers from .410 to 12 gauge. The shotgun was quickly picked up for police and prison guard use in the United States and has seen limited service in foreign military forces. Highly modifiable, a stock 870 can be modified by the user into an excellent home defense weapon.\nSelf-loading shotguns have been slow to catch on in the United States, particularly in military units, for reasons that are not well known. The Beretta 1301 is one of a new generation of semi-automatic combat shotguns. Beretta claims its Blink gas operating system makes the 1301 thirty 6 percent faster than competing shotguns, enabling it to empty its four-shot magazine in just one second. The shotgun has a barrel length of 18.5 inches, making it handy indoors, and an enlarged charging handle that\u2019s difficult to miss in stressful shooting situations. A combination ghost ring and blade sight is supplemented with a Picatinny rail that allows the 1301 to utilize prismatic, red dot or any number of compact optics.\nManufactured by Benelli Armi SpA, a subsidiary of Beretta, the M2 Tactical is a somewhat larger semi-automatic shotgun than the 1301. The M2 has a 18.5 inch barrel but can accommodate five rounds in the internal magazine. The Benelli shotgun also features a pistol grip, and the manufacturer claims it features up to 48 percent less recoil than comparing shotguns. The shotgun is fitted with a variety of iron sights, including ghost ring and tritium sights, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for a MIL-STD1913 Picatinny rail, allowing the user to install specialized optics. Length of pull is an unusually long 14 3/8 inches to accommodate the user\u2019s bulletproof vest. The U.S. Marine Corps uses a similar version, the M4, designated the M1014.\nThe shotgun with the most recent U.S. military pedigree is the Mossberg 500 series pump-action shotguns, including the Mossberg 590. The 590 is the only shotgun that passed U.S. Military specification MIL-S-3443G, which outlines the standards for U.S. armed forces riot-type shotguns with regards to accuracy, endurance, ability to withstand rough handling and the effectiveness of the supplied heat shield. A typical military grade 500 series shotgun has all-metal construction, an eight round internal magazine, a manual safety and bead sights. Like other shotguns barrel length varies quite a bit but the U.S. military\u2019s shotgun barrels are likely 18.5 inches long. The 500 is used by the U.S. Army, the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps.\n5 Best Semiautomatic Guns on the Planet\nSemiautomatic handguns typically differ from revolvers in offering a higher ammunition capacity over cartridge stopping power. The disparity doesn\u2019t result in less powerful handguns, just in handguns that are dangerous in different ways. Accuracy, power and ammo capacity are all a factor in determining the most deadly semiautomatic handguns, and the most dangerous may favor one factor over the other. With that in mind, here are the five most deadly semiautomatic handguns on the U.S. market.\nAutoMag .44 Magnum\nDeveloped by the Auto Mag Corporation and first made for sale to the public in 1972, the AutoMag was for a time the most powerful semiautomatic handgun on the market. The AutoMag carried seven .44 AMP cartridges in an internal magazine, and was made of stainless steel with plastic grips. The AutoMag had a 6.5-inch barrel, and its overall length was 11.5 inches. This made the AutoMag rather heavy, and it weighed three pounds unloaded. The .44 AMP round is basically a 7.62\u00d751-millimeter rifle round cut down for handgun use. Police Inspector \u201cDirty\u201d Harry Callahan carried an AutoMag in the film Sudden Impact. Production of the AutoMag ceased in 1982.\nDesert Eagle .50 Action Express\nIntroduced in 1983, the Desert Eagle brought rifle technology to the world of handguns, with gas piston design that siphons off hot gases from burning gunpowder and uses them to cycle the handgun. The Desert Eagle also uses an M-16 style bolt face to ensure a tight lockup against the high chamber pressures. The pistol has a six-inch barrel and seven-round magazine, and weighs nearly four and a half pounds unloaded. The .50 Action Express round generates up to 1,600 foot-pounds of energy, four times as much as a nine-millimeter Parabellum round.\n1911A1 .45 ACP\nOriginally released in 1911 by the prolific arms inventor John Moses Browning, the 1911 was updated to the -A1 standard in 1924, essentially the handgun that we know today. The 1911A1 fires a smaller .45 ACP cartridge than other handguns on this list, but its advantage in other areas makes up for its lack of power. The 1911A1 is overall a more practical fighting handgun than the other guns listed here. The 1911A1 is smaller, has less recoil and is more concealable than the AutoMag or Desert Eagle, and its slim, flat profile makes it concealable with the right holster. John Browning\u2019s masterpiece typically carries between seven and eight rounds, with magazines available to carry up to ten rounds.\nMost handguns on this list are ear-splittingly loud, the result of heavy Magnum and .45 calibers that require large amounts of gunpowder. This not only makes them painful to shoot without ear protection but easy to pinpoint their location. The Maxim 9 pistol has a built-in suppressor that lowers the sound of a typical 160-decibel nine-millimeter pistol shot to a tolerable 139 decibels. As the U.S. Marine Corps recently learned, shooters who don\u2019t have their hearing blown out by gunshot noise are able to communicate and work together more effectively, as orders and directions are more easily heard across a noisy battlefield.\nThe presence of the Glock 17 on a list of the most deadly semiautomatic handguns, may seem unusual, but the Glock\u2019s simplicity, reliability and high magazine capacity are too important to ignore. In the original Austrian Army trials that started the Glock on the road to success, the Glock 17 jammed only once in ten thousand firings. A Glock will work\u2014period\u2014in dusty, dirty, demanding conditions that will cause other handguns, especially larger caliber ones, to fail. The Glock 17\u2019s fifteen-round magazine is more than twice the capacity of other guns on this list. While the nine-millimeter cartridge is as much as one quarter as powerful as the .44 AMP, proper shot placement on target can easily make the Glock 17 as dangerous as its much larger cousins.\nKyle Mizokami is a defense and national security writer based in San Francisco who has appeared in the Diplomat, Foreign Policy, War is Boring and the Daily Beast.

        "raw_content": "Posted on May 16, 2013 November 12, 2015 by Derrick\nWritten and Directed by John Woo\nSet the WayBack Machine for 1989, Sherman. We\u2019ve got to go back a bit before I get into the meat of this review because it\u2019s important. Trust me.\nEven back in 1989 I had a reputation among my friends and family as a movie guy. That\u2019s because I went to the movies two or even three times a week. This is 1989, remember. There is no Netflix, no Hulu, no Internet, no DirecTV, no 500 HD movie channels, no DVD, no Blu-Ray. VHS is king. So I would frequently take in a movie during the week with my buddies after work, maybe go to one by myself and then take Patricia (we\u2019d been married five years by now) on the weekend. Got the picture so far? Good.\nIn the spring/summer of \u201989 I was besieged by friends of mine who constantly asked me had I seen this Hong Kong action movie that was like nothing they had ever seen before and I absolutely had to see this thing as it would change my movie going life forever. Matter of fact, friends were telling me that this movie topped \u201cDie Hard\u201d and I really couldn\u2019t believe that as I thought \u201cDie Hard\u201d was just about the best action movie I\u2019d ever seen in my life up to that point. So I finally decide to go see this movie. Problem is that it\u2019s playing only at one theater; an arthouse cinema on the East Side around 23erd St somewhere and the movie is only showing three times a day. And all those showing are during the early part of the day while I\u2019m working. The first showing was around 11AM or something like that.\nHey, no problem. It\u2019s the warm weather season and I don\u2019t need much of an excuse to play hooky anyway. So I call in sick and determine I\u2019m gonna check out this movie that everything insists I just have to SEE to believe!\nI get to the theater, pay for my ticket, go in and I\u2019m surprised to see that at this time of day the theater is packed. I get one of the very few seats remaining, sit back and wait to see what everybody has been telling me is so mollyfoggin\u2019 amazing.\nOne hundred and eleven minutes later I stumble out of the theater with the rest of the audience as if I\u2019m Moses who\u2019s just seen The Burning Bush. Some of the audience members have seen this movie three, four or even five times already and soon I am engaged in a discussion those other people about the movie. In fact, about a dozen of us become fast friends due to our mutual admiration of movies in general and this movie in particular so we go out to get something to eat and then come back to catch the third and last showing of the day which is even more packed than the first showing to the point that people are standing in the back of the theater or sitting on the floor.\nThat movie was John Woo\u2019s action masterpiece THE KILLER.\nI only relate all this because I know how much time has passed between then and now and for most of you reading this, you\u2019ve seen so many action movies that you have absolutely no idea of the impact that THE KILLER made when it first came to American theaters. Trust me. THE KILLER was like nothing else we had ever seen. For me, it was my first exposure to John Woo and yes, my movie going life was never the same again.\nMaster assassin Ah Jong (Chow Yun-Fat) wants out of The Triad and agrees to take one last job in return for his freedom. During the job he accidentally blinds the nightclub singer Jenny (Sally Yeh) while trying to protect her from getting shot. Ironically it\u2019s the muzzle flash from his own gun that blinds her.\nFilled with remorse, Ah Jong visits Jennie at the club every night after he blinds her to listen to her sing and they fall in love. She has no idea he\u2019s the reason for her being blind and Ah Jong determines to get enough money to take Jenny to America so that she can have a corneal transplant. In order to get that much money, Ah Jong has to take a high-risk hit. The hit goes bad and during his escape, Ah Jong is identified by a police detective, Li Ying (Danny Lee) who becomes obsessed with capturing Ah Jong. Li Ying is the perfect guy to catch Ah Jong since he\u2019s on thin ice with his bosses who consider him pretty much a wild bull on thin ice anyway. But he has a gift of putting himself in the mindset of criminals and he finds it pretty easy (maybe too easy ) to get into Ah Jong\u2019s head.\nAh Jong has to not only stay out of the gunsights of the police but also his Tong boss Wong Hoi (Shing Fui-On) who has ordered a hit on Ah Jong since his identity has been compromised. What makes THE KILLER so unique is in that Ah Jong\u2019s pursuer Li Ying becomes his closest friend and ally as the both of them discover that they\u2019re mirrors of each other, bound together by similar personal codes of honor and loyalty.\nEven today when I watch THE KILLER I am astounded by the action sequences. The final shootout in the church is the second best shootout I\u2019ve ever seen on film and it\u2019s earned by the fact that when it comes, we\u2019re totally invested in the characters so we care who lives and who dies. THE KILLER has a great story that is both tremendously simple and yet overwhelming complex at the same time. It\u2019s pretty simple why Ah Jong takes on the responsibility of restoring Jenny\u2019s sight. It\u2019s pretty simple why Li Ying comes to admire Ah Jong. What\u2019s not so simple is how these characters have their own agendas that come into play and have to be resolved in blood.\nThis is the movie that made Chow Yun-Fat a star in this country. He\u2019s got the same kind of badass cool that made Sean Connery, Steve McQueen and James Coburn stars and it\u2019s all there on the screen in this one. I also like Danny Lee a lot because of his character and his acting talent we to see a lot of the Ah Jong character through his eyes as he gets inside the head of his quarry.\nAnd the gunfights\u2026good googlymoogly\u2026us provincials here in America had never seen gunfights like this until John Woo said \u201cHere\u2026let me show you how it should be done.\u201d And he did. Each and every gunfight in THE KILLER is epic. And this is the one that begins the classic. quintessential John Woo standoff with two guys pointing guns in each other\u2019s faces. This one has Ah Jong and Li Ying maintaining the pose that they\u2019re having a nice, quiet and friendly conversation in Jenny\u2019s apartment while she serves them tea. But all the while they\u2019ve got guns on each other. Being blind she can\u2019t see the guns. It\u2019s a scene that\u2019s both hilarious and suspenseful to the max.\nSo should you see THE KILLER? Without a doubt, YES.\nTags: Chow Yun-Fat, John WooCategories: 1980s Action Movies, Crime Thriller, Hong Kong Gun Fu\n5 thoughts on \u201cThe Killer\u201d\nI remember me and my friends walking around Boston looking for a VHS copy of THE KILLER. It really was this mythical beast everyone into movies had to find and watched. When we finally got it, we watched the hell out of it. Fantastic story, Derrick.\nThank you for another awesome review at The Ferguson Theater, Derrick! I am very ashamed to admit that I never saw this movie before, and in fact have barely heard of it over the years. I\u2019ve been a big fan of Chow Yun-Fat, though, as one of my all-time fav action films was \u201cThe Replacement Killers.\u201d He really has a natural knack for bringing sympathetic and emotionally complex hit men to the screen. In fact, I totally hope that you eventually review that movie here, especially now that I know you\u2019re also a Yun-Fat fan!\nNeedless to say, you can rest assured I will be checking out \u201cThe Killer\u201d tonight, especially since I just checked and found that it\u2019s currently streaming on Netflix. As for the late 1980s? Yup, those were the days! I can still remember all the trips to the local Blockbuster Videos and the many smaller independent local chains you could find a more varied collection of movies. I too used to rent numerous VHS tapes in the era long before we had the convenience of streaming video. Public access to the Internet was just beginning then, but it was *nothing* like it is today, with just maybe 15 websites and all of them either government or corporate owned (it would be about 1995 before the Internet as we know it today had more or less emerged). Ah, if only I had nostalgically kept the multitude of broken cassette tapes we all used to rack up by the dozens back then \ud83d\ude09\nAs for another, more recent completely *must see* for you in this genre is the unforgettable 2007 Korean film \u201cI Saw the Devil\u201d starring Byung-hun Lee and Min-sik Choi. It\u2019s currently streaming on both Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, and this is the synopsis as provided by the former: \u201cA secret agent discovers how far over the edge he\u2019ll go to seek retribution after his fianc\u00e9e is brutally slain by a psychopathic serial killer. A psycho killer. A cop who craves revenge. He\u2019ll ignite an endless duel with a monstrous force of human nature.\u201d This film is at least as incredible to watch as the synopsis suggests, and one of the things I thought when seeing it was, \u201cI gotta tell Derrick about this one!\u201d I would totally pay to read a review from you on that film, and I think you would have much to say about it! Be sure to Google it and read as many reviews as you can, so you will see why I think this is a must see for you and all fans of the action thriller genre! To start, check out the home page of the film, which includes a trailer and much more info about it: http://www.isawthedevilmovie.com/\nI SAW THE DEVIL is one of those movies that has been in my Netflix queue for the longest as somebody recommended it to me last summer. I just haven\u2019t gotten around to watching it but because you give it a Must See endorsement, Christofer, I\u2019ll make time this weekend to check it out. Deal?\nDeal! \ud83d\ude42 I think there will be a really good chance you\u2019ll find the movie more than worth a review! I\u2019ll be checking out \u201cThe Killer\u201d this weekend, as per your own recommendation.\nEM Erdelac says:\nI saw this one on Cinemax when I was 14 or 15. I was the kid who introduced it to my high school. I was the first fifteen year old with a trenchcoat. Hell, I may have started the whole trenchcoat mafia thing for all I know. All because of The Killer and later Hard Boiled and A Better Tomorrow. Great post, man. I can only imagine what seeing this in a packed theater was like. Like seeing Enter The Dragon for the first time in America, maybe.\nNo doubt, from that first time Chow stomps the table and flips the gun into his hand, I was a Woo fanatic.\nPreviousLove & Sex\nNextStar Trek",

He is the founder of the Virgin Group which now has over 400 companies in massively diverse fields from mobile phones to space travel to a successful cola chain in Bangladesh. In his book Business Stripped Bare he shows you the essence of what built his company and what it takes to become a successful entrepreneur.\nWork With The \u2018Virgin Type\u2019\nRichard tells us how important people truly are to a business because you cannot build a business on your own, you need people. But you need the right people, Richard calls them the \u2018Virgin type\u2019. These are people how are passionate, driven and hardworking, they definitely live to work and not the other way round. The people that you choose to employ or go into business with need to be good at setting goals and reaching them. The character of a person is far more important than qualifications (although they can of course be an indication of developed intelligence and hard work) because they are not an indication of weather they will work well in your business. Jobs can be learned, but it is extremely hard to teach someone how to have the right personality and the right business savvy. Studies have been done on how the people you surround yourself with effect who you are; surround yourself with unfit people and your more likely to be unfit, surround yourself with lazy people and you are more likely to be lazy. So take this into account when choosing people to work with, choose successful people with huge futures and you will also become successful.\nHow A Brand Can Be The Success Of Your Business\nOne of the most notable things about Virgin is their brand. It is their brand that has allowed them to have success in so many different fields, it immediately shows the customer what to expect when they approach any Virgin company. Richard claims that the success of his brand was down to his consistency with both the products and services they provide. They constantly focus on how to please the customer continually, if you can brand your company in this way then you will get huge amounts of repeat purchase with a high level of customer satisfaction. According to Richard you should build a philosophy first and then comes a business, in this way you assure that customers will enjoy the experience they get when dealing with you and will want to come back again. Using Virgin as an example they always try to make the consumer have fun and bring laugh in wherever they can, for example when Richard found out many of his customers on virgin atlantic were stealing their salt and peeper pots because of their great design he had printed on the bottom \u2018swiped from virgin atlantic\u2019. This would of course bought a smile to many customers face and i\u2019m sure they flew on virgin atlantic again. Integrate you philosophy for life into every part of your business and customers will not be able to help enjoying their experience. Just make sure your philosophy a good one.\nAlways Keep The Customer In Mind\nBut having a good intention in business is only the first step: you need to find a way to deliver this in a profitable way to the customer. First of get rid of the misconception of \u2018good business practice\u2019, and the fact of always acting with profit in mind. Although Richard believes acting in a profitable way is necessary to any business he understands the importance of acting with the customer in mind. Every single decision made in a business should come down to, what is going to advance the consumers experience? When Richard first set up virgin records their whole marketing strategy was to provide records at an extremely low price so that they outcompeted everyone else. Their profit margins were extremely low and they often made no profit, but he was acting with what the customer wanted in mind. You may consider a business that is not making a profit an unsuccessful one yet thousands of people were buying from him and he continued on this philosophy throughout his business. He now has 8 companies that are worth over a billion dollars so it would appear he stumbled upon something very important. However acting with the customer in mind is easier said than done as many companies fail to realise what it is the customer really wants. Finding out takes research, time and money but the investment is well worth it and the money will come back to you a hundred times. Richard says you have to \u2018get up from behind your desk and go see where people and ideas lead you\u2019. This is very true, you are not going to find out what your target market wants if you spend all your time in an office arranging the lowest price for a certain raw material or whatever it is your doing. Eventually you are going to forget that it is the customer that you want to please. So if you are going to invest in something invest in what the consumer wants and not what your business wants.\nUse Your Mistakes To Your Advantage\nEvery business is going to make mistakes, that much is for certain. But it is also certain that if you learn from them you will never make them a second time. Richard Branson once made a mistake which he considers one of the worst of his life; he found out you didn\u2019t have to pay purchase tax on products intended for export. He decided he should make use of that and so he claimed that the records he was buying were being exported to France. He even transported them their and back on the ferry, of course he kept it secret that they were coming back. Inevitably he was caught and ended up spending the night in jail. His parents had to remortgage their house to pay the \u00a360,000 he needed not to get a criminal record. This was 3x the amount that he had saved by doing the scam. But you can bet that he learnt from that and he says he now stays well within the law. You should follow this principle in all of your life as mistakes are going to arise, that is not a problem, it\u2019s when you start making those mistakes over and over again that it becomes a problem. Learn from your mistakes.\nInnovation it what has bought about all of the success in the world in some form or another. It is the people who dare to dream big like Richard Branson that achieve big things, things that previously seemed impossible. 100 years ago no-one would ever have dreamed that their would be a man made contraption that could transport 3 people to the edge of space, 100km above the Earths surface, in comfort but Richard Branson now has a plane that can do just that. But innovation is a tool that should be used right down to the smallest of things in a company. There are always ways to reduce costs, improve efficiency and improve customer experience, they just need to be found. Your job in life should be to find these innovations that improve your business and the world. Spend every minute of the day analysing everything around you. Constantly ask yourself: Can this be done more effectively? Does that look as good as it could? Can I make that more customer friendly? Because there are always ways to improve the world, find them and you will become rich.\nDon\u2019t Have Irrational Fears\nIf you want to lead then you have to (according to Richard Branson) be able to tell apparent and real danger apart. That means having the confidence to take your business through bad situations without giving up at the first hurdle but also realising when the route your on will only bring disaster. You can\u2019t just blindly follow orders as people can be wrong, you haver tho make informed decisions and sometimes just trust your gut. Richard learnt this the hard way when it was suggested that he jump of the fantasy tower in Las Vegas connected to a wire in black tie. When he was standing on the roof he noticed the wind was blowing very hard and the wire was very close to the building, he considered backing out but he was convinced into doing it. Long story short he ended up hanging dazed at the bottom of the wire having collided with the building twice on the way down. Theres an important lesson here, don\u2019t blindly trust the people who appear to know what they are doing, they can be wrong and you can end up paying for it. Make informed decisions and trust them.\nLearn To Use Your Skills For The Benefit Of Humanity\nHowever Richard does not believe that making a good business is all that is required to live a successful and fulfilled life. He is dedicated to advancing the lives of people all around the world and believes that entrepreneurship is the way forward. He supports entrepreneurs with new ideas all around the world and is dedicated to helping with the HIV condition in South Africa and providing green energy for the world particularly in the form of biofuels. Richard is committed to solving many of the worlds largest issues in a profitable and sustainable way through the use of his business knowledge.\n7 Point Summary\n\u2013 Surround yourself with successful, hard working and likeminded people.\n\u2013 Provide consistent and exceptional customer service based on a solid philosophy.\n\u2013 Find out what the customer wants and incorporate it into every decision your business makes.\n\u2013 Learn from your mistakes, don\u2019t make the same one twice\n\u2013 Innovate to improve your business, your life and the lives of the people around you\n\u2013 Make informed decisions and trust your self.\n\u2013 Find ways to enhance the world in a profitable and sustainable way, better the lives of others.\nIf you want to read the whole book then you can get it HERE\nIf this summary has inspired you to read the book yourself then you can find it here: Business Stripped Bare \u2013 Richard Branson\nMay 11, 2015 June 2, 2015 Desire And Achieveadvance, Book Reviews, Business, business stripped bare, creativity, how to be a leader, money, Richard Branson, success, virgin atlantic\nPrevious Previous post: Why Read My Book Summaries?\nNext Next post: The Idea Hunter \u2013 Andy Boynton | Bill Fischer",

        "raw_content": "This report documents three years \u2013 among many decades \u2013 of repeated protests and struggles by tens of thousands of farmers and peasants in Maharashtra, led by the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS). These struggles created the momentum for the historic Long March (March 6-12, 2018) from Nashik to Mumbai.\nIn his essay, Ashok Dhawale, president of the AIKS, provides a brief history of farmers\u2019 protests in Maharashtra from 2015 and explains in detail how the Long March was planned and executed.\nDhawale writes that since 1991, when neo-liberal agricultural policies were adopted by the Maharashtra government (and by various governments at the Centre), 300,000 farmers have committed suicide in India. Successive state governments \u201cbetrayed assurances [given] to the peasantry\u201d and did not meet their demands. The Long March was organised to protest these \u201cconsistent betrayals\u201d by the central and state governments, which have become even more acute in the years of Bharatiya Janata Party rule.\nThe preface by senior journalist P. Sainath (who is the founder editor of the People\u2019s Archive of Rural India) discusses the agrarian crisis, \u201cthe corporate hijack of Indian agriculture\u201d and the way forward. The afterword by Sudhanva Deshpande, editor, LeftWord Books, provides an eyewitness account of the Vijay [Victory] March in Kalwan, northern Maharashtra, on April 2, 2018 and profiles Kisan Sabha leaders.\nThe text is interspersed with photographs by Shrirang Swarge (independent photojournalist), Binaifer Bharucha (photo editor at the People\u2019s Archive of Rural India) and Sudhanva Deshpande. They record the grit and dedication of thousands of men and women, from Adivasi and other communities, who traversed long distances on foot under a blistering sun to make their voices heard by the state.\nMore farmers have taken their own lives in Maharashtra than in any other state. According to the National Crime Records Bureau, close to 65,000 committed suicide in Maharashtra between 1995 and 2015 \u2013 more than a fifth of the total of over 300,000.\n25,000 farmers and peasants, including women and Adivasis, started the historic Long March at CBS Chowk in Nashik on March 6, 2018. By the time they arrived in Mumbai\u2019s Azad Maidan on March 12, the number had grown to around 50,000 farmers.\nTheir demands included farm loan waivers; remunerative prices for crops; implementation of the Swaminathan Commission\u2019s recommendations; stringent implementation of the Forest Rights Act (FRA); more pension schemes for poor peasants and agricultural workers; compensation to farmers for losses due to pest attacks; vesting tillers with the rights to temple and pasture lands; opposing acquisition of peasant land for elitist projects like the bullet train and super highways; issues with the public distribution system; and a complete change in the river-linking scheme in Nashik, Thane and Palghar districts.\nThe largest number of farmers in the Long March came from Nashik district, followed by Thane-Palghar districts and Ahmednagar district.\nThe farmers walked 43 kilometres \u2013 from 11 a.m. on March 11, when the march started from Thane city, to 6 a.m. on March 12 \u2013 to arrive at Azad Maidan in south Mumbai. They walked through the night to ensure that traffic due to their march would not disrupt the board examinations of SSC students in Mumbai on March 12.\nThe Long March was the culmination of three years of farmers\u2019 actions in Maharashtra, which started in October 2015. One of the early milestones was in December 2015, when over 50,000 peasants led by the AIKS took to the streets in 29 tehsil centres of 15 districts in all five regions of the state, demanding land rights, loan waivers, remunerative prices and drought relief.\nOn March 29, 2016, the AIKS held a historic 100,000-strong statewide rally. There was also a sit-in at CBS Chowk in Nashik for two days and nights. Maharashtra\u2019s chief minister Devendra Fadnavis met with Kisan Sabha leaders on March 30 that year and agreed to some of their demands, but didn\u2019t implement them.\nOn October 3-4, 2016, over 50,000 Adivasi peasants, women, youth and students from various districts held a 16-hour gherao at the house of the tribal development minister in Wada in Palghar district. The highways from Wada to Mumbai, Thane, Bhiwandi, Palghar, Dahanu, Talasari, Surat and Nashik were blocked as well. The minister was forced to concede (in writing) to several long-standing demands. However, after some initial progress, the state\u2019s implementation floundered.\nDuring a historic 11-day strike from June 1 to 11, 2017, Maharashtra\u2019s farmers refused to bring milk, vegetables and fruits for sale to the cities. On June 11, a group of five state ministers held talks with the AIKS and publicly agreed to a complete loan waiver for all farmers. A loan waiver package of Rs. 34,000 crores was announced; each farmer would get up to Rs. 1.5 lakh. However, several conditions were imposed, leaving a majority of farmers out of the waiver\u2019s ambit.\nWhen the recent Long March ended in Mumbai on March 12, Devendra Fadnavis and other state ministers had a three hour-long discussion with Kisan Sabha leaders. On March 13, Fadnavis tabled the agreement between the AIKS and the state in the legislative assembly. The government gave concrete and time-bound written assurances to the farmers on implementing their demands.\nThe Long March put pressure on the state government and it agreed to waive farmers\u2019 loans for the 2001-09 period and for 2016-17 as well. It also removed a number of eligibility conditions for the loan wavier.\nAs a follow-up to the Long March, the AIKS called for a Kisan Vijay [Victory] March in Kalwan, about 70 kilometres north of Nashik, on April 2. The local police estimated that 25,000-30,000 farmers attended this march.\nThen Kisan Sabha is planning to collect 100 million signatures of farmers and others across India in support of their demands. These signatures will be submitted to each district collector in the country on August 9, 2018, the 76th anniversary of the Quit India Movement. Farmers will also participate in a peaceful and democratic countrywide jail bharo (fill the jails) agitation on that day.\nIn the preface, P. Sainath suggests that parliament should have a 20-day special session to discuss the agrarian crisis and related issues.\nFactoids and Focus by Subuhi Jiwani.\nAuthors: Ashok Dhawale, P.

        "title": "Keeping SharePoint from Becoming an Information Shantytown - DOCUMENT Strategy Media",
        "raw_content": "Keeping SharePoint from Becoming an Information Shantytown\nSharePoint is a near-ubiquitous platform for content and document management. In order to get the most from the platform, it's important to manage design, deployment and operationalization intentionally.\nToo often, SharePoint is considered as an out-of-the-box document management and collaboration tool. The SharePoint environment is installed by the IT organization and opened up for business users to begin using to support their program or process.\nWhen less thought is given to understanding the detailed needs of audiences and processes, SharePoint becomes another environment with haphazard organizing principles, a lack of process discipline, poor content hygiene and, ultimately, an information environment that does not live up to expectations or potential.\nWhat can be done differently, and how can managers avoid the traps and pitfalls that await them? There are a few lessons learned that, if applied, will make the SharePoint information experience valuable for the organization and meaningful for the user. SharePoint is deceptively simple. This simplicity lulls management into complacency when it comes to design and development. Because the principles are based on \"the usual\" content and document management best practices, the organization sometimes does not recognize what is unique about the environment or deployment lacks the rigor of more ambitious and complex information projects and programs.\nIt's easy to simply put up a site or two and let people store and share documents. However, as site content grows, it will become more and more challenging to locate content to support the needs of the user community. The problem grows steadily and insidiously. It's not obvious at first. Quality of information and the ability to find needed documents steadily declines over time. Search result quality degrades and content processes get progressively poorer. Over time, the gleaming, new information environment becomes a sprawling, rundown content shantytown.\nHow can you prevent this from happening? In the physical world, we need regulations, infrastructure, governance, enforcement of the laws and ordinances, sanitation, revenue collection to pay for it all and a means to listen to the people and make decisions about changes. If none of this is in place, growth is haphazard and chaotic, there are no services and the environment would be an unhappy place in which to live or work.\n\"Socialization and change management is extremely important. Starting with a clear vision of the benefit and desired end state will help people see the outcome and contribute to achievement of that end state.\"\nIf we want to torture the metaphor, we'd charter the city (roughly equivalent to a business case), put in zoning requirements, design standards and controls (analogous to defining content requirements and developing architectural standards), develop municipal infrastructure (get the servers up and running), collect maintenance duties and taxes (pay for operations and development), install a police force to monitor compliance (have content and standards compliance), employ sanitation workers (content curation and cleanup), hold town halls to hear about the needs of the inhabitants (governance and decision making) and continue to build out infrastructure and functionality as the needs and requirements grow (prioritization and ongoing resource allocation to meet the needs of the business).\nI won't try to carry my metaphor any further than that, but you can see the very interesting analogies throughout the steps describing the process. (For a really interesting metaphor on the physical world and content and knowledge processes, pick up a copy of Stewart Brand's How Buildings Learn.)\nHere are the steps (sans city metaphor) to avoiding the haphazard and accidental SharePoint deployment:\nDevelop a business case and charter your project\nThe first step in the process is determining how far to go with content processes and information design. It may very well be appropriate to simply put up a collaboration site for users and let them collaborate away, defining organizing principles and naming conventions on-the-fly. This is likely not the case. Most organizations are deploying SharePoint to solve an information management problem that has arisen from letting the users do whatever they wanted to. The challenge is determining the nature of the problem and deciding how much organizational resourcing to devote to the solution.\nSharePoint should be living within a content and information ecosystem. Providing the correct level of information management discipline and attention to defining site structure, functionality and process will depend on the value of content in the context of the business problem being addressed.\nContent supports a process, and a process enables a business activity, goal or imperative. If the process is supporting a community of financial advisors with sales support materials and/or account management procedures, this content has a higher customer transactional value than internal collaboration around marketing strategy. Marketing strategy might be important, but it is not transactional in nature and the business operations do not depend on getting the correct content in people's hands.\nArticulate the nature and value of content\nThis is part of the business case but at a finer degree of detail. We've established the need for intentional management of documents. Now the question is what documents and content we need to support the process, how they are created and how one would distinguish the specific documents that are required at each step in the process. The business case may be around improving customer service. What is the nature of content that specifically supports customers? It seems obvious, but this requires identifying audiences, defining audience tasks, determining if personas are required and mapping content to specific needs and contexts.\nDefine the life cycle of content\nWho creates the content? Who approves it? What are the components, and can those components be derived from others and reused? How much is created on a weekly or monthly basis? How are documents assembled for different purposes? What are the downstream processes? What is the final disposition of content?\nDefine the structure of documents\nI call this the \"is-ess\" and \"about-ness\". What is this thing, and what is it about? SharePoint has the ability to leverage content structure\u2014the information model\u2014in ways that will allow presentation of content to users in new and more useful ways that mimic the \"mental model\" of the user. The mental model is how users think about their problem and how they go about gathering information as they perform a task.\nDefine ownership and accountability\nSharePoint, more than other platforms, requires clear ownership and accountability for site structures, element definition, content life cycle management and information policy and content tagging and curation. There are many ways to adjust and configure the environment, but these cannot happen on a whim. They need to be planned, agreed upon, executed and released. People need to be accountable at multiple levels.\nCommunication and socialization\nGetting stakeholder participation for SharePoint is a challenge. Socialization and change management is extremely important since SharePoint requires a change in work processes and how people execute their day-to-day tasks. Whenever we change a process, we're changing people's work habits. As we all know, change is hard. Otherwise, it would be easy to stay with an exercise program or lose weight, quit smoking or do anything else that requires a change to our habits. Starting with a clear vision of the benefit and desired end state will help people see the outcome and contribute to achievement of that end state.\nKeeping your information management environment clean, functional, up to date and effective in meeting the needs of the business requires focused effort on planning, design, implementation, ongoing cleanup and maintenance and strong leadership and change management throughout. By intentionally deploying SharePoint for document and content management, organizations will avoid the most common SharePoint pitfall: leaving the environment to happenstance and letting user content and information sprawl throughout a haphazard and confusing landscape.\nSETH EARLEY is the CEO of Earley & Associates, an information management (IM) consulting company.

        "raw_content": "Thanks to a question from Laura about what happened, I think I owe folks an update. I\u2019d sort of forgotten the blog.\nAt one point, I had decided to go off medications, but found that I was having more of what I call \u201cbreakthrough\u201d episodes of RBD. So I started taking Clonazepam again, and will probably do so for the rest of my life. But there have been some interesting developments in my life with RBD.\nFirst, I do still have episodes, but they are infrequent. One night I broke a couple of toes trying to break through a wall that happened to be in both my dreaming and waking worlds. Otherwise, no serious injuries, and nothing really dramatic to report. However, when I say nothing dramatic, I mean physically dramatic.\nMy investigations eventually led me to the International Association for the Study of Dreams (http://www.iasdreams.org/) where I got the idea to try lucid dreaming and intention as tools for channeling my dreams in a more productive direction. Using lucidity, I confronted the sinister presence in some of my dreams, and unmasked him as being not real. Using intention, I have learned to protect myself from dreaming about subjects that are likely to create breakthrough episodes, and I have used Shamanic journeying as a gentler way to explore the topics that seem to cause breakthroughs. So that much is partially under control. An excellent book on RBD by an IASD member is \u201cDreamrunner,\u201d a novel by Clare Jay. Clare also highly recommends \u201cParadox Lost: Midnight in the Battleground of Sleep and Dreams,\u201d by Carlos H. Schenck, MD. I haven\u2019t yet read the book, but Clare says it\u2019s available from http://www.parasomnias-rbd.com.\nThe other part is my visits to the RBD study in Houston. This will be my last year, since they only follow their subjects for five years. Last year, I was told that it is unlikely I will develop Parkinson\u2019s Disease, based on what they have learned about the various biomarkers for the disease in relationship to RBD. That still leaves open the possibility of Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) and Dementia with Lewes Bodies, or other forms of neuro-cognitive decline. Or maybe I just have bad dreams!\nIn a discussion regarding a paper Clare Jay had written for the PsiberDreaming Conference 2014, Clare posed the question of whether a person with a parasomnia such as RBD is responsible for his or her actions during an active dreaming episode. My answer: though maybe not legally responsible in a court of law, the person with RBD does have a responsibility to do all that is possible to ensure the safety of him or herself, and those nearby. I would call it \u201csleep hygiene,\u201d or maybe more appropriately \u201csleep etiquette.\u201d Ensure that anyone who sleeps nearby has a quick means of escape, or sleeps in a separate bed, or even a separate bedroom if necessary. I personally use a gentler method of what I believe was called the \u201cbundling\u201d board, which was a physical barrier down the middle of the bed, as well as a way to tuck the covers in so that I cannot kick my bed partner.\nMeanwhile, I\u2019m hoping that Houston gives me an all clear.\nTags: lucid dreaming, RBD\nI weaned myself off meds (Clonazapam) about a month ago just because I don\u2019t like to take any drugs unless they are absolutely necessary, and have been sleeping quite well ever since, without any of the side-effects (drowsy mornings, sometimes drowsy afternoons, sometimes unsteady on my feet). My dreams have been more normal. But I still sleep on a futon away from furniture, away from walls, away from my wife so I don\u2019t knock her in the middle of the night. To the best of her knowledge, I hadn\u2019t been having any RBD episodes \u2026 until last night, that is.\nHere\u2019s what I remember \u2026 I half-woke from a dream where my feet were tangled, and found that I\u2019d tangled the sheet around my feet. I straightened the bedding, resettled, and went back to sleep. Here\u2019s what my wife reported.\nShe was awakened when I let out a loud yell. She said, \u201cAre you alight? Are you alright?\u201d\nI answered with \u201cAre you alright? Are you alright?\u201d\nShe got up to check on me and I was half way off the futon. I threw myself completely out of bed, straightened the sheets, got back into bed, and went back to sleep, but continued to talk and thrash around. This around midnight.\nThere was another episode at around 3:00 am. I don\u2019t recall that one at all. So, one disturbed night in the last month, and as usual, it was more upsetting to my wife than it was to me.\nIn late May, I\u2019ll be stopping for a few days in Houston, where they are doing a study of people with ideopathic REM Behavior Disorder (iRBD). It is a longitudinal study to see whether there is a way to associate iRBD with the later development of Parkinson\u2019s Disease (PD). RBD is a common symptom of PD, but those with RBD do not necessarily develop PD.\niRBD is not common, and my wife and I wanted to know more about it. We quickly educated ourselves with everything that was available on the Internet, but the condition begs for further understanding. Questions I have: If there are lesions in the brain stem, can they be repaired using stem cell therapy? Can oriental medicine help, since Western medicine\u2019s approach, to date, is to mask symptoms for as long as possible? Are there support groups for spouses of those with RBD? Would a detailed history maybe point to something that leads to the development of iRBD?\nThe wheels of progress move slowly, especially for a condition that is relatively rare, so finding a study that looks closely at RBD is a big plus. In Houston, they will review my sleep study, and will possibly perform another one. They will do an MRI to determine whether there are any lesions on my brain stem or anything organic that might be causing my RBD. And they will be doing a lumbar puncture so they can study my cerebral fluid \u2026 diagnostic for PD, and also to see if there are any biomarkers peculiar to RBD.\nAs an aside in case of the eventuality of developing PD, the VA has now recognized exposure to Agent Orange as a causative factor in PD. That means that PD can be a service-related illness, from the VA\u2019s perspective. In 1969-1970, I was on a patrol that crossed a defoliated area near the top of Bac Mah mountain, outside of Vietnam\u2019s ancient capitol city Hue, which means that I may have had some residual exposure to Agent Orange. Add to that the possibility (or is it probability?) of slight PTSD \u2026 the etiology of RBD, and by extension PD, is a tangled web.\nTags: Parkinson's Disease, PD, RBD, REM Behavior Disorder",

        "raw_content": "Look Closer Macro Photography Contest Winner : John Proudfoot\nJohn Proudfoot from Cornwall, United Kingdom won Duggal\u2019s Look Closer Macro photography contest for his photograph, \u201cA Drop of Passion\u201d.\nJohn is a self-taught photographer. He studied a bit of photography in school in his hometown Bude, Cornwall United Kingdom, and left at 16 to work for his family\u2019s coffee shop.\nPhotography is a newfound passion for John, though he has always had an interest in wildlife & art. This inspiration has helped him take off within his new path in photography. With the power of the Internet as his informational support system, he has developed his skills as a photographer. John would love to spend a day with a professional photographer where he can receive more insight and learn the information it would take to become a professional.\nJohn has had some success with photography in the past. In 2012 his photograph \u201cPortrait of a Hornet\u201d won first prize in Share the View: Wildlife Contest. He is currently working on building for his portfolio for a personal website displaying a range of macro photography work, flora & fauna and hopefully landscapes in the future.\nQuote from the artist: \u201cI only got into photography properly in August of last year, when I bought my first Digital SLR camera; a Nikon D3000. I have always enjoyed taking pictures with my compact digital camera, but the Digital SLR has allowed me to have more control over what I want to achieve. I\u2019ve been into art all my life and I\u2019ve always had two main objectives; detail and originality. I am also incredibly impatient, so to have the ability to produce a piece of art with the click of a button suits me so much better! A macro lens was always going to be my first choice and I was blown away with the detail you can get that you just can\u2019t see with the naked eye. I read an article about reversing the lens to get more magnification, so for this photo I reversed my kit lens that came with my camera and attached it to the end of my sigma 105mm F2.8 macro lens. I closed the aperture so that just enough light was coming through which is how I got the \u201clight bulb\u201d effect. The tricky part was getting the flower and the drop in focus. This was done by focus stacking a few photos together taken at different focus distances.\u201d\nJohn Proudfoot\u2019s Winning Image: \u201cA Drop of Passion\u201d",

They also revealed Uhuru was very popular in their native Jamaica.\n\u201cIf there\u2019s one leader we salute in Jamaica is Jomo Kenyatta. We salute his son, Uhuru Kenyatta who is the President of the Republic of Kenya,\u201d Peetah Morgan said.\n\u201cUhuru Kenyatta is changing politics of the world \u2013 people are now looking at Kenya because of him,\u201d he added amid cheers from the crowd.\nPeetah put under spotlight the world leaders who are sticking to being state administrators despite age not favouring them, adding that Uhuru Kenyatta, unlike them (elderly leaders), fits the position because he connects and resonates with the citizenry \u2013 who are predominantly the youth.\n\u201cFor years politicians, Presidents and Prime Ministers who are 70, 80, 85 years old have clung on to power. What does a 70-year-old have in common with a 20-year-old or a 30-year-old? Nearly nothing!\u201d Peetah said.\nAdding: \u201cThe children and the youth are the future of the world. So we want to see people who resemble us (youth) in these places of power!\n\u201cThis is why I love the President of Kenya, and why we are in love with him the more, is because he is the son of the founding father of Kenya, Jomo Kenyatta. Give it up for President Kenyatta!\u201d Peetah said, and immediately the crowd burst into shouts and chants of approval.",

        "raw_content": "THE LITTLE MERMAID (HANDOUT PHOTO) 'DISNEY HANDOUT\nPRINCETON, N.J. \u2014 An all-male a cappella group at Princeton University has pulled a Disney movie song from its act following a student newspaper column that suggested the lyrics helped promote \u201ctoxic masculinity.\u201d\nThe Princeton Tigertones have performed \u201cKiss the Girl,\u201d a song from \u201cThe Little Mermaid,\u201d for years. During performances at the Ivy League school, a female audience member would be brought onstage to decide whether or not a man from the crowd could kiss her.\nNoa Wollstein, who wrote the column, claimed the song\u2019s message is misogynistic and that too many women have been pulled on stage for unwanted encounters.\n\u201cI have seen a queer student brought on stage have to uncomfortably push away her forced male companion,\u201d Wollstein, a sophomore from New York, wrote in her column. \u201cI have heard of unwilling girls being subjected to their first kisses. I have watched mothers, who have come to see their child\u2019s performance, be pulled up to the stage only to have tension generated between them and the kid they came to support.\u201d\nIn a response published in the newspaper, Tigertones\u2019 President Wesley Brown apologized to anyone made uncomfortable by the tradition. He said the group won\u2019t perform the song until it can find a way to do so without offending any audience members.\n\u201cPerformances of this song have made participants uncomfortable and offended audience members, an outcome which is antithetical to our group\u2019s mission and one that we deeply regret,\u201d he wrote.\nIn \u201cThe Little Mermaid,\u201d the song\u2019s lyrics are sung by Sebastian the crab as he encourages Prince Eric to kiss Ariel, who can\u2019t talk because she traded her voice in order to become human for him.\n\u201cMy oh my/ Look like the boy too shy/ Ain\u2019t gonna kiss the girl,\u201d the crab sings with help from other sea creatures. \u201cAin\u2019t that sad?/ It\u2019s such a shame/ Too bad/ You\u2019re gonna miss the girl.\u201d\nOther lyrics include, \u201cDon\u2019t be scared/ You better be prepared/ Go on and kiss the girl.\u201d\nWollstein also criticized \u201cThe Little Mermaid\u201d song for \u201cunambiguously encourage men to make physical advances on women without obtaining their clear consent.\u201d\n\u201cRemoved from its cushioning context of mermaids, magic, and PG ratings, the message comes across as even more jarring,\u201d Wollstein wrote.",

Fortunately this has fallen back to a more acceptable ten days or two weeks at the time of writing and we will always do our best to accommodate an urgent instruction. This reflects the national picture where there can be a delay of over four weeks in obtaining a Mortgage Valuation. We would like to thank all our clients for their patience and also for the many positive testimonials which have been provided in the post-survey Customer Satisfaction Questionnaires. Building Surveys are particularly time consuming to produce and we really do try to make each report better than the last.\nAgain and reflecting past comments the areas of Totterdown, Bedminster and Southville continue to be very popular with buyers and similar comments apply to Brislington where there have been clear price rises in the roads around Sandy Park Road etc. Property Values have risen strongly in most parts of Bath and in the traditionally more desirable areas north of Bristol city centre. There is a resurgence in buy-to-let investments and it would appear that now is a good time to buy as we are moving on from the bottom of the property cycle. Some of the towns and villages around Melksham, Trowbridge, Westbury, Frome and Midsomer Norton have not yet seen such a recovery but estate agents report brisk business when prices are right.",

        "raw_content": "The next generation of console wars has begun! If you look at numbers from the previous console war, Nintendo won. It was able to sell over 100 million Wii consoles. This is, of course, compared to the PS3 that sold 80 million and the Xbox 360 that sold 79 million. Now, let\u2019s take a look and see how the Xbox One, PS4 and Wii U are doing.\nThe Wii U had a one year head start and is currently in the lead. That being said, the Wii U did not have a great start and does not have a very big lead on the PS4 and Xbox One systems that just came out. Although sales for the Wii U have been starting to pick up, most experts expect the Xbox One and PS4 to pass Wii U sales soon. That is, unless games like \u201cMario Kart 8\u201d and \u201cSuper Smash Bros\u201d can really push Wii U sales.\nBased on official numbers, the Wii U currently controls 63 percent of the market because it has sold 4,092,000 units. The Xbox One is just barely in second place with 1,186,000 units sold. This is followed by the PS4 that sold 1,165,000 units. That being said, the PS4 and Xbox One are sold out. If the companies had more systems out, they may have been able to pass the Wii U numbers within the first month of their launches because of how much hype they had.\nThat being said, Sony has recently claimed that its new sales for the PS4 sit at 2,100,000 million. These sales are based on the number of units sold in 32 markets. Unfortunately, Microsoft has been very secretive about how many units it has sold. However, it is believed that the PS4 has outsold the Xbox One so far. That is to be expected since the Xbox One has only launched in 13 markets.\nInstead of revealing figures, the Xbox One released \u201cgamer stats.\u201d They did this by saying that people have already killed 3 billion zombies while playing \u201cDead Rising 3.\u201d Players have also driven more than 90 million miles while playing \u201cForza 5.\u201d The overall Gamerscore on the Xbox Live network is over 400 million. Although these stats are impressive, they really tell us nothing about how many consoles it has sold.\nThe handheld market, on the other hand, is firmly controlled by Nintendo without question. The 3DS has a death grip on 85.4 percent of the handheld market. Stats show that 37,841,000 3DS systems have been sold so far. The Sony Vita only has 14.6 percent of the market. Sales figures for the Vita sit at 6,470,000.\nAs you can see, the next console war is fully underway. The struggling Wii U is in first place right now but only because of its one-year lead. It should not take long for the Xbox One and PS4 to catch up. Who will win this console war?\nTags: PS4, Sales, Wii U, Xbox One\n25 things you might not know about Harry Potter Applebee\u2019s will have Tablets on its Tables in 2014",

This version has been lightly edited to make it fit the context of this blog.]\nA recent post by Kent Anderson on The Scholarly Kitchen described the ease with which a bit of misinformation can blow up into an \u201cacademic urban legend\u201d through the magic of citation networks. While Anderson\u2019s tale centered on the iron content of spinach, the phenomenon of misinformation creeping into the conventional wisdom is hardly limited to the field of nutritional science. In fact, those of us interested in the future of publishing and libraries fall into these patterns ourselves. As in other domains, some of the data we rely upon as well-established and unquestionable sometimes turns out to be quite questionable indeed. This post will describe \u2013 and begin to question \u2013 one such touchstone within our field: the Association of Research Libraries\u2019 (ARL\u2019s) annual graph, \u201cMonograph and Serials Costs in ARL Libraries.\u201d The most recent version of the graph appears below:\nEvery year for the past three decades, ARL has released a set of statistics about its member institutions \u2013 everything from the number of graduate students at their home universities to the average prices of the monographs they purchase. Since its addition in 1989, one of the most frequently-cited pieces of this annual report has been that year\u2019s version of the graph pictured above. It is especially common to see elements of this graph, or even the graph itself, referenced in discussions of the economic issues surrounding electronic serials subscriptions, analyses of the perils facing library collection budgets, and arguments in favor of open access publishing \u2013 indeed, it has been used that way previously on the Scholarly Kitchen itself \u2013 and a quick search for the exact title of the graph (sans date range) in Google Scholar pulls up nearly 100 hits. So well-established is this image, in fact, that one article on library collection development trends [paywall] goes so far as to assert that it \u201cis quite possibly the best-known contemporary symbol of today\u2019s library in today\u2019s marketplace.\u201d At present, ARL is undergoing a significant reorientation of its data tracking practices in this area, so it is unclear whether further revisions of this graph will be produced. However, it is quite unlikely that the many versions already out there will cease to be used in analyses of the library and publishing world \u2013 although, as I will suggest, perhaps they should be. (Stay tuned.)\nRecent versions of the graph have reported on four trends relevant to materials purchasing in major research libraries (the members of ARL):\n1. Serial Expenditures,\n2. Monograph Unit Cost,\n3. Monograph Expenditures, and\n4. Monographs Purchased.\nThe data here come from surveys of ARL member libraries, conducted annually by ARL itself. And on its face, the trends that the graph portrays seem very reasonable. They tell a familiar story, in line with the conventional wisdom: serials expenditures are skyrocketing, while all the figures for monographs meander along well below. And this familiar story, backed up repeatedly by this exact graph and its direct predecessors, has been used to make countless numbers of policy arguments at levels ranging from the departmental to the international.\nThere is just one problem with this graph \u2013 and by extension, our community\u2019s (over)reliance upon it: the trends it portrays cannot logically coexist.\nSetting aside the Serials trend line for a moment, let\u2019s take a closer look at the three lines for monographs, and particularly, for the sake of illustration, the trends these lines portray in the period from 2008 to 2011. In that period, we can observe the following:\n\u2013 Monograph Unit Costs are Rising\n\u2013 Monographs Purchased are Rising\n\u2013 Monograph Expenditures are\u2026Falling?\nThis is plainly impossible. Say the average cost of a book rises from $50 to $60 over the same period where the average number of monographs libraries purchase rises from 20,000 to 25,000. Basic arithmetic tells us that the monograph expenditures must also rise, from $1 million to $1.5 million ($50 * 20,000 = $1,000,000; $60 * 25,000 = $1,500,000). There is \u2013 or ought to be \u2013 a precise arithmetic relationship among these values. And yet the canonical ARL graph shows expenditures falling while prices and purchasing both rise.\nThe answer to this question reveals a deep and potentially fatal weakness in the methodology behind the graph. The problem is that all of the trend lines it portrays are derived from different samples that are of different sizes. For the most recent version of the graph, the Monograph Unit Cost figure represents the median of 57 libraries\u2019 data, the Monograph Expenditures figure represents the median of 97 libraries\u2019 data, and the Monographs Purchased figure represents the median of 58 libraries\u2019 data (as shown in the Excel file ARL provides alongside the graph).\nThis is not good statistical practice; indeed, it renders the trends in the graph completely non-comparable.\nYet, it is easy to see how this might have happened. One suspects that the story runs something like this: All of ARL\u2019s survey data for each year is initially aggregated by variable, and is initially analyzed in isolation. At some point, someone has the idea to extend this analysis of each isolated variable longitudinally, comparing the variables\u2019 values to past values of those same variables. But to make sure that the data is comparable year-over-year, they limit the sample to the libraries with complete data for the period, within each variable. So far, so good.\nHowever, different libraries have answered \u2013 or have abstained from answering \u2013 different questions. Thus, when the variables get aggregated into a cross-variable comparative graph, the samples ought to have been re-adjusted, to ensure that the sample data was not only complete and comparable along one dimension (each variable over time), but along all of those relevant to analysis \u2013 including, and especially, comparability of the population of libraries for each variable. But this does not seem to have been done.\nAdditionally, it will come as no surprise to readers of the Scholarly Kitchen that the way in which libraries define the term \u201cmonograph\u201d has been evolving. Where in past decades it could be more or less depended upon to refer exclusively to bound paper books, in recent years more and more libraries have been reporting ebook statistics to ARL under this same heading. Yet, this evolution has not occurred uniformly across ARL members, and that has caused further problems with the organization\u2019s statistics. Indeed, as ARL\u2019s Martha Kyrillidou recently noted to me via email, ARL no longer tracks \u201cmonographs,\u201d per se, but asks its members about \u201cone time purchases\u201d instead.\nA bit more digging into the ARL archives, moreover, reveals a further wrinkle: the logically incompatible trends portrayed in the graph have only appeared in iterations published since 1999; previous iterations appear at least superficially logical in their trends. And indeed, on page 5 of the 1993-1994 edition, explicit mention is made of the sampling issue, and how it has been dealt with: \u201cThe graphs are based on time series that start in 1986, and they depict only those libraries that have had no missing data in the respective variables since 1986. Although these graphs are based on less than the full population of 108 academic libraries, additional analysis has been carried out to ensure that the time series trends represent population trends.\u201d Based on the inconsistencies enumerated above, however, it would appear that these procedures may no longer be followed.\nARL is one of very few organizations that collect this sort of broad-scale longitudinal data on libraries\u2019 behavior and environment \u2013 and taken in their full context and with the requisite grains of salt, these data are exceedingly valuable resources for thinking about the present and future of both academic libraries and scholarly publishing. Yet, in the case of ARL\u2019s \u201cMonograph and Serial Costs\u201d graph, this necessary context seems to have fallen away: the evolving image has become increasingly entrenched as unquestioned truth, even as the trends it portrays have diverged further and further from what is logically possible. The effort to ground arguments for open access, for changes to library practice, and for new forms of scholarly publishing in empirical data is undoubtedly positive. However, as we go about assembling data for these purposes, we must continue to look upon it with a critical eye \u2013 no matter how stable and objective the source may appear.\nPosted in Libraries, Publications, Publishing, Research\t| Tagged graph, Monograph Expenditures, Scholarly Kitchen | Leave a comment\nKiller Serials?\nI gave a presentation at CNI yesterday discussing the role \u2013 or lack thereof \u2013 of the early 1990s \u201cserials crisis\u201d in diminishing academic library markets for university press books.

I also worked in Media Relations for the UM side of the project in 2006-07. And, of course, I\u2019ve spent the last several years working on a dissertation in which the Google Books Library Project is perhaps the central case (it\u2019s certainly the longest chapter). These experiences have undoubtedly shaped the views that follow. And now, disclaimer: these are my own opinions, and do not reflect the views of any of my employers, past or present. Also, I am not a lawyer, and nothing here should be construed as legal advice.]\nLast Thursday, when Judge Chin handed down his decision granting Google\u2019s motion for summary judgment in the Author\u2019s Guild\u2019s 8-year-old* copyright lawsuit against it, I shared the elation of many in the library, tech, and research communities who, like me, have been following the case since the beginning.\nLike them, I truly believe that the ruling is a victory for libraries, for innovation, and for research. It supports and confirms Judge Baer\u2019s earlier decision in the AG\u2019s case against HathiTrust, and in so doing provides strong reassurance that future digitization projects \u2013 whether executed by libraries or by other private or public entities \u2013 should be able to proceed with some confidence that as long as certain boundaries are respected, such digitization will be found fair and legal.\nReading the early celebratory analyses, I initially felt I had little to say \u2013 others had summed it up so well.\nHowever, this morning I read the chain of emails re-posted to the Library Juice Blog from the Progressive Librarians Guild discussion list and Social Responsibilities Round Table discussion list, and it made me feel like I might have something to say after all \u2013 and when Library Juice\u2019s founder, Rory Litwin, approached me directly to see if I had any thoughts, that sealed it. And here we are.\nIn that chain of emails, several progressive-leaning librarians expressed a great deal of skepticism regarding the idea that the Google Books fair use decision was actually \u201ca victory for libraries,\u201d on a number of grounds. Most of these rationales rested on a fundamental distrust of Google as a corporation, and of its motives for getting involved in scanning books.\nOK, fine. No need to trust Google. No need to like or respect their motives.\nBut here\u2019s the thing: however you might feel about Google or its motives, those feelings are irrelevant to thinking about the implications of Judge Chin\u2019s decision for libraries.\nYes, Google undoubtedly plans to make money off these scans \u2013 though as the opinion notes, not by selling the scans in question, and also not by selling advertising around them.** But does that inherently make them evil from a library perspective? Don\u2019t libraries do business with a lot of other corporations who do much worse things to information access than Google? (I\u2019m looking at you, Elsevier\u2026Wiley\u2026Springer\u2026) And what\u2019s more, don\u2019t libraries pay these corporations millions of dollars per year to provide their services? Google\u2019s library partners never paid Google a red cent for scanning their books (which is not to say it was cost-free \u2013 only that Google didn\u2019t charge libraries for its scanning service). So why is one acceptable, and the other not?***\nOf course, there are many more substantial critiques that can be made of the Google Books Library Project from a library perspective. Among the most compelling, in my view, are the privacy implications for readers using the service (which are terrifying, if you think about it) and the frankly crappy metadata, which can\u2019t help but impede any kind of research executed using the corpus (but especially the kind of \u201cbig data\u201d work that is so in vogue these days). These critiques also appeared in the re-posted email thread.\nBut these critiques, as important as they are, are no more relevant to thinking about whether or not Judge Chin\u2019s decision was a victory for libraries than the more subjective distaste for Google described above. They don\u2019t matter either. Not here.\nJudge Chin\u2019s decision is beneficial for libraries not because it benefits Google (though of course it does) but because of the way the law works \u2013 that is, based on precedent. This decision sets the precedent that scanning books for the purpose of indexing \u2013 even books in copyright, and even without the copyright-holder\u2019s permission \u2013 is fair use, so long as access to the actual digital versions of those in-copyright books is limited in particular ways. Judge Baer\u2019s decision set a very similar precedent. And those precedents are immensely valuable to libraries who wish to go forward with digitizing and broadening access to their collections, whether they choose to do so in partnership with a corporation like Google, with a nonprofit like the Internet Archive, with a collection of their institutional peers, or with nobody but their own staff.\nThe nature of legal precedent is such that you don\u2019t have to like the party that wins, and you don\u2019t have to like what it\u2019s doing, in order for that precedent to benefit you. Heck, I seem to recall that at least half of the cases we read in Intellectual Property & Information Law centered on pornographers, hate groups, and other unsympathetic protagonists \u2013 and those sketchy characters often won, but that didn\u2019t mean the decisions set bad precedents from the perspective of library values and ethics. Often just the reverse.\nMoreover, Judge Chin\u2019s decision also benefits some library projects more directly \u2013 especially HathiTrust. Since HathiTrust is mostly composed of Google scans, it would have suffered a significant blow if the Author\u2019s Guild had gotten its way, since it would probably have had to stop using all the scans of in-copyright works that Google had made, both for search and retrieval and, one suspects, for providing access to the print-disabled (though, I am not a lawyer \u2013 if Chin\u2019s ruling had conflicted with Baer\u2019s here, I\u2019m not sure exactly what would have happened). Judge Chin\u2019s ruling undoubtedly has the folks involved with both HathiTrust itself and the HathiTrust Research Center breathing a massive sigh of relief.\nSo yes, I\u2019m sticking with my view, and the ALA\u2019s view, and the view of many others, that Judge Chin\u2019s decision was a massive victory for libraries. Because though the case was about Google, the decision is about more than that. It\u2019s about the rights of information users \u2013 whether corporate, public, or individual \u2013 to make use of copyrighted works in transformative ways that do not imperil the economic well-being of the copyright holders, in a world where copyright terms last far longer than they truly should. For libraries, it\u2019s about lowering the level of tension surrounding the legal risks of digitization, and of making secondary uses of externally-digitized works. It\u2019s about the public good. Google may be a massive part of the information ecosystem, and its influence may be deeply questionable in many ways \u2013 but in the context of this decision, Google is only a tiny piece of what matters.\n*Seriously, if this lawsuit was a person, it would have just started the second grade.\n**Most likely, as one of my dissertation research participants speculated, the benefit of Google Books to the Google bottom line will be indirect, through increased eyeballs and increased data-banks that help to improve the algorithm and sell advertising in other parts of the Google megasphere.\n***Also worth noting: Google does not have, and has never had, a monopoly on these scans. Heck, that\u2019s part of what the Author\u2019s Guild was suing over \u2013 that Google was providing the scans to libraries, with few limitations on what those libraries could do with them. And hey look! The libraries almost immediately started pooling their scans (along with other scans they\u2019d created under other projects), and made HathiTrust! It\u2019s almost as though the Google scans are accessible through a provider within the library world, which might be more beholden to library ethics and metadata standards! Well go figure!\nPosted in Books, Digitization, Google, IP, Law, Libraries, Uncategorized\t| 1 Comment\nSeptember 9, 2013 by Elisabeth Jones\nDraft Open Content Alliance Timeline\nSome of the comments I received on the Google timeline were very helpful to me, so I decided to post the timeline for the other digitization case in my dissertation, the Open Content Alliance (OCA). In many ways, the OCA has been harder to unravel into a linear narrative, partially because the documentation on it is much sparser than that on Google Books. Still, between the press coverage and a set of interviews I conducted with the project\u2019s early leaders (marked INT for confidential interviews; Brewster Kahle opted to make his interview open), I think I\u2019ve made a fair start. (And in fact, because I included every detail I came across on this one, it\u2019s actually substantially longer than the Google timeline turned out to be.)\nPlease do let me know if I am missing things or have particular facts wrong.\nHere is what I have (citations follow below):\n1980-mid-1990s Brewster Kahle begins to think about building a universal digital library, but recognizes several gaps in the existing technology, and sets about trying to fill them, working on increasing the capacity of digital storage, building out digital networks, and working out online revenue streams for publishers (Interview with Kahle, 2011)\n1995 Kahle sells WAIS, an early publishing and distributed search system, to AOL for $15 million (\u201cStaff Bios\u201d, Hogge 2005)\n1996 Kahle founds web analytics company Alexa Internet, named for the Library of Alexandria, in collaboration with Bruce Gilliat. As part of its functionality, Alexa crawls and archives webpages (\u201cStaff Bios\u201d, Tong 2002). Simultaneously, Kahle founds the Internet Archive, which uses Alexa\u2019s archived web-crawls as the foundation for its archive of internet content, made accessible via the Wayback Machine (Hogge 2005).\n1999 Kahle sells Alexa Internet to Amazon for $250 million; the Internet Archive retains the right to receive web crawls from Alexa (\u201cTechnology\u201d, Hogge 2005, Hardy 2009).\n2000 The Million Book Project, an NSF-funded large-scale digitization project geared toward addressing a particular set of technological research questions, is initiated by a group of computer scientists at Carnegie Mellon, in collaboration with universities in China and India, the Biblioteca Alexandrina in Egypt, and other partners (St. Clair 2008, 152-53).\n2004 The Internet Archive signs on to assist the Million Book Project (by then also referred to as the Universal Library Project) with permanent archiving, quality control, and materials acquisition (\u201cFrequently Asked Questions\u201d 2007). Following on their experiences with Million Book, IA begins to develop its own book scanning technology (both hardware and software), which would eventually be called the Scribe (Interview with Kahle, 2011).\n2004 (Autumn) The Internet Archive and the University of Toronto begin a pilot project to test the IA\u2019s scanning process. Within the next year, they scan about 2,000 books (Carlson and Young 2005, Bengtson 2006)\n2004 (December 14) Google Print Library Project announced (Google 2004).\n2005 (Early) Conversations begin within the Internet Archive and its social sphere about starting up a more open book scanning project, as an alternative to Google\u2019s; initial thought was to fund the project via contributions from libraries (INT).\n2005 (Early/Mid) Sumir Meghani of Yahoo! approaches the Internet Archive, proposes the concept of the Open Content Alliance, a collaborative project to scan works out of copyright or otherwise openly available for scanning. Yahoo! puts up $150,000 in funding to start, targeting a collection of works in American Studies at the University of California (INT, Albanese 2005, Johnson 2007, 5).\n2005 (October 2) Open Content Alliance announced by Brewster Kahle on the Yahoo! Search Blog (2005a). Founding partners include: The Internet Archive (technology/content/hosting/administration), Yahoo! (technology/indexing/financial), Adobe Systems (technology), The European Archive (content), HP Labs (technology), The UK National Archives (content), O\u2019Reilly Media (content), Prelinger Archives (content), University of California (content), University of Toronto (content) (\u201cConsortium Forms OCA to Bring Additional Content Online\u201d 2005)\n2005 (By October 14) The project is endorsed by the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP) (Carlson and Young 2005).\n2005 (Mid-October) Partners added: Lulu (a print on demand service), LibriVox (a producer of audio editions), the Biodiversity Heritage Library, the Smithsonian Institution Libraries, and eleven university libraries (McMaster, Memorial University of Newfoundland, the University of Ottawa, University of British Columbia, York University, Columbia University, Emory University, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Virginia, Rice University and the University of Pittsburgh) (Auchard 2005, Crawford 2005, Suber 2005).\n2005 (October 25) Microsoft joins the OCA, pledging funding and tech/scanning assistance (Auchard 2005); simultaneously announces MSN Book Search (\u201cMSN Search Announces MSN Book Search\u201d 2005, Albanese 2005, Crawford 2005).\n2005 (October 27) The Research Libraries Group (RLG) signs on to provide the OCA with bibliographic information from its union catalog (\u201cRLG Joins Open Content Alliance\u201d 2005, Crawford 2005).\n2005 (By November 2) The project is endorsed by the Association of American Publishers (AAP) and the American Association of University Presses (AAUP) (Suber 2005).\n2005 (November 4) British Library signs on to scan 100,000 books with Microsoft (\u201cMicrosoft Scans British Library\u201d 2005, Crawford 2005, Kupferschmid 2005).\n2005 (November 8) Official launch of OCA book scanning; Microsoft pledges to fund the digitization of 150,000 by the end of 2006 (Kahle 2005b).\n2005 (November 9) WSJ reports that the IA/Toronto pilot project has scanned 2800 books, at a cost of $108,250, over the course of the past year (Crawford 2005).\n2005 (December 29) A group of 27 Canadian research libraries announces that they are jointly establishing a project called Alouette Canada, a digitization alliance intended to work collaboratively with the OCA (Crawford 2006).\n2006 (March) Partner added: University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill (Library and SILS; providing content and expertise, respectively) (\u201cUNC-Chapel Hill Library and Library School Join Open Content Alliance\u201d 2006, Albanese 2006b).\n2006 (September) The University of California joins Google Book Search; Kahle sees this as a betrayal of the OCA\u2019s principles on UC\u2019s part, going so far as to claim that UC is \u201ceffectively giving their library to a single corporation,\u201d despite its then-ongoing participation in the OCA (INT, Albanese 2006a).\n2006 (December 6) Microsoft Live Search Books releases its first beta version (at http://books.live.com \u2013 now defunct) (Guren 2006).\n2006 (December 19) IA receives $1 million from the Sloan Foundation to scan specific collections from the Boston Public Library, The Getty Research Institute, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, UC-Berkeley\u2019s Bancroft Library, and Johns Hopkins (\u201cSloan Foundation Grant Awarded\u201d 2006, \u201cThe Internet Archive Receives Grant\u201d 2006, Internet Archive and Boston Public Library 2007).\n2006 (December 20) IA announces that it has digitized and made available 100,000 books, largely from members of the Open Content Alliance (\u201cMilestone Achieved\u201d).\n2007 (March) The OCA reaches 130,000 volumes scanned, all available via the IA Text Archive (Notess 2007).\n2007 (April) Partner added: University of Illinois (\u201cU of Illinois Joins Open Content Alliance\u201d 2007).\n2007 (June 25) The Internet Archive successfully petitions to be declared a library by the State of California, in order to gain eligibility for state-administered federal grants (Kahle 2007a, McCoy 2007).\n2007 (July 16) At Kahle\u2019s request, open access advocate and entrepreneur Aaron Swartz signs on to help build the architecture for Open Library. His goal in the design, as he puts it, is to create \u201ca website with a page for every book, collecting everything we can find out about it from libraries, publishers, reviewers, and of course, book lovers\u201d (Swartz 2007, Kniffel 2008, quoting Swartz).\n2007 (October) The OCA reaches 200,000 volumes scanned. Eight scanning centers are in operation, in three countries: the US, Canada, and the UK (Goth 2007, Kahle 2007b, Ashmore and Grogg 2008). IA releases a rewritten version of its scanning software, Scribe2, which promises greater format flexibility, less bandwidth usage, and support for new cameras (Internet Archive 2007, Kahle 2007b).\n2007 (November) Partner added: Boston Library Consortium (19 member libraries, all contributing public domain materials only, self-funded). The BLC publicly announces that it was approached by Google first, but rejected them in favor of OCA (\u201cBoston Library Consortium and Open Content Alliance to Provide Digitized Books\u201d 2007, Albanese 2007a, Hane 2007).\n2007 (November 15) A set of OCA partners \u2013 IA, BPL, MBL-WHOI, and Universidad Francisco Marroqu\u00edn \u2013 announce a plan to scan out-of-print, in-copyright works for distribution via a new form of digital interlibrary loan, which they will develop (Albanese 2007b).\n2007 (December) The OCA reaches 250,000 volumes scanned (Hane 2007).\n2007 (December 15) Yale University signs on with Microsoft to scan up to 100,000 books outside of the OCA, and on terms more like Google\u2019s than like IA\u2019s (Albanese 2007c).\n2008 (January-April) With funding from Microsoft, IA deploys five more US-based scanning centers under the banner of the OCA (INT, Kahle 2008).\n2008 (February) The Boston Public Library begins to offer scan-on-demand interlibrary loan (ILL) services for public domain works using its onsite Scribe workstations. This reduces the turnaround time from weeks to days, and makes it possible to fulfill ILL requests that would otherwise have been denied due to the condition and/or rarity of the item requested (Colford 2008).\n2008 (February 19) Partner added: Triangle Research Libraries Network, a consortium composed of the research libraries at Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (the last of which was already an OCA partner) (\u201cTriangle Research Libraries Network\u201d 2008, \u201cTRLN Libraries\u201d 2008, \u201cTRLN Member Libraries\u201d 2008).\n2008 (May 23) Microsoft announces it is bowing out of book scanning, having spent $10 million on its efforts. The company\u2019s departure leaves a major gap in OCA funding (INT, Albanese 2008b, Guess 2008, Kahle 2008, Nadella 2008).\n2008 (August) Maura Marx, then head of the Boston Public Library\u2019s Digital Content Program, is hired to be the first Executive Director of the OCA. However, she never actually assumes the role, but instead founds a separate initiative, Open Knowledge Commons, with Sloan funding (INT, \u201cPeople\u201d 2008, Berry 2009).\n2008 (November) HathiTrust launched, incorporating scanned content from OCA as well as Google Books and other digitization projects (Albanese 2008a).\n2008 (December) Open Library and Boston Public Library jointly begin to offer a scan-on-demand service for public domain works that have been indexed by Open Library, but have not yet been made available in full text (\u201cHave a Hand in Scan-on-Demand\u201d 2008).\n2009 (January) The OCA reaches 1 million volumes scanned \u2013 including 300,000 donated by Microsoft after the discontinuation of Live Search Books (O\u2019Leary 2009).\n2009 (July 5) Last mention of the term \u201cOpen Content Alliance\u201d on the organization\u2019s own blog (Kahle 2009). After about this point, the project under that name is effectively defunct, though various pieces of it persist, and the term still pops up occasionally in discussions of book digitization.\n2009 (December) IA and the OCA form the Open Book Alliance to oppose the Google Books Settlement Agreement. Yahoo, Microsoft, Amazon, the Special Libraries Association and the New York Library Association soon join (Oder, et al. 2009).\n2010 (February) The IA debuts BookServer, \u201ca distributed system for lending and vending on the Internet\u201d at the O\u2019Reilly Media Tools of Change for Publishing Conference. It allows individuals to buy or check out in-copyright but out-of-print materials, dovetailing with Open Library and connecting with libraries and retailers (Hadro 2010a).\n2010 (Spring) IA works with the City of San Francisco to hire over 125 workers for its scanning project, as subsidized labor under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program (INT, Miller 2010).\n2010 (May 6) In the final post on the Open Content Alliance blog, Kahle announces that the IA will be making 1 million books, both in and out of copyright, accessible to the print disabled via Open Library in the open DAISY talking book format (Hadro 2010b, Kahle 2010).\n2010 (June) The first 200 or so ebook versions of out-of-print, in-copyright books go live for lending via Open Library. They are readable for two-week periods using Adobe Digital Editions Software (Rapp 2010).\n2011 (April) IA announces that 85,000 in-copyright, out-of-print titles, contributed by 150 public and academic libraries, will be made available via Open Library, but only to patrons actually physically located in those 150 libraries (though once patrons download the books, they can use them on their personal devices outside the library for the duration of the loan) (Rapp 2011c).\n2011 (June) OCLC researchers develop \u201coclcBot,\u201d a piece of software that matches up records from Open Library to records from OCLC, checks to see of the Open Library has an OCLC number (a unique identifier commonly used across library systems), and inserts one if none is present (Rapp 2011b).\n2011 (July) Kahle announces the establishment of the Internet Archive\u2019s physical book archive, hoping to obtain \u201cone copy of everything ever published.\u201d The archive is launched with an initial collection of 450,000 items, accumulated as part of IA\u2019s various digitization efforts, and seeks to build its collection through donations and by gathering up items deaccessioned by other libraries (INT, Rapp 2011a).\n2011 (October) October: The state librarians of all 50 U.S. states vote unanimously to enter into a memorandum of understanding with IA, pledging their support for the Open Library\u2019s online lending program (Kelley 2011).\n(linked where possible)\nAlbanese, Andrew. \u201cAAP Sues Google over Scan Plan.\u201d Library Journal 130, no. 19 (November 15 2005): 17-18.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cBLC, OCA Join in Digitization Effort.\u201d Library Journal 132, no. 17 (October 15 2007a): 15-16.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cHathitrust Is Launched.\u201d Library Journal 133, no. 18 (November 1 2008a): 13.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cMicrosoft Gives up Scan Plan.\u201d Library Journal 133, no. 12 (July 15 2008b): 14.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cOCA to Scan Orphan Works.\u201d Library Journal 132, no. 19 (November 15 2007b): 16-17.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cUC Joins Google\u2019s Scan Plan.\u201d Library Journal 131, no. 14 (September 1 2006a): 14-15.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cUNC Library, SILS Join Content Alliance.\u201d Library Journal 131, no. 6 (April 1 2006b): 21-22.\n\u2014\u2014\u2014. \u201cYale, Microsoft Join in Scan Plan.\u201d Library Journal 132, no. 20 (December 15 2007c): 19.\nAshmore, Beth, and Jill E.

It seemed pretty well-received (highest attendance ever for this series!), and I definitely had fun talking about these things with those who attended.\nThe slides and handout will be posted at the library website shortly, along with [shudder] a video recording of the actual talk. But I figured it couldn\u2019t hurt to also post them here. In addition to the SlideShare version below, here are PDF versions of the slides and the handout that went along with them. The handout is essentially a bibliography, which recommends several general methodology texts and also provides citations to articles using each of the different data collection methods discussed in LIS settings (mostly as recommended in Wildemuth 2009).\nPosted in Libraries, Research\t| Leave a comment",

        "raw_content": "Posted on November 13, 2015 December 13, 2015 by Emma Havighorst\nOn Existentialism, Growing Up, and Doing Stuff\nLately, my interests have been shifting. I\u2019m not pulling a Tavi Gevinson and deciding I don\u2019t want to be in fashion anymore (sorry Tavi, love you!!), but it\u2019s more of a thing that is happening as I\u2019m getting older. I find myself getting blocked, and I struggle to find the right words to put on paper and more importantly, the right topics to discuss. Will people really care about my brunching habits? Or my current existential crisis? Or my new playlists? Or \u201cfun\u201d events and art thingys that I go to? For so long, all I did was make lists of trends and pretty clothes and ever since I created a new space [see: this wonderful website] to do just that, I find that I\u2019m cramping my own style with abundant insecurities and worries.\nIt\u2019s gotten to the point where I literally missed the 1 year anniversary for the beautiful Alkaline + Chrome. Yep, the 1 year. We\u2019ve been together for that long and I forgot. I\u2019m shocked A+C has\u2019t broken up with me. I\u2019m disappointed in the work that I\u2019ve done on the blog in the last year, I\u2019m not going to lie. There\u2019s always something more urgent to do, or something more necessary, like sleeping. Or sometimes, Netflix. As I said, I\u2019m not proud of it. But it\u2019s what has happened.\nLUCKILY, I can say that the first marking period of senior year is over, and while school is obviously still my number one priority, a little more of the stress is easing off. As the college apps finish up (only 4 more to go!) and the senioritis sets in, I can guarantee that I\u2019ll be writing more and doing more for the site.\nTime for existentialism \u2013 I\u2019ve found that I can only really write when I\u2019m happy and satisfied, but I can only be fully happy and satisfied when I\u2019m writing and blogging\u2026 Just think about that.\nWhen I\u2019m in the groove, and I\u2019m blogging, I swear to you, I am the happiest person to be around. It\u2019s probably obnoxious how cheerful and optimistic and energetic I am. But when there are other priorities and not enough hours in the day, as such happens too frequently, blogging falls by the wayside, and I fall into this little pit where I can\u2019t fully gain back my completely happy self until I start writing again. The problem then is that starting becomes more and more of a chore as it becomes harder to find exciting things to say and I become more worrisome about what to say and when. Basically, it\u2019s an icky cycle.\nI\u2019m breaking out, right now.\nWelcome back to Alkaline + Chrome. You\u2019ll be seeing a lot more of me this year than last year. See ya around.\nPrevious PostPrevious Everything You Need To Know: Back To School Shopping Edition\nNext PostNext \u201cTable for Three\u201d Deserves the Attention of More than Three",

        "title": "Oxford Brookes University - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "Oxford Brookes University is a public university in Oxford, England. It can trace its origins to 1865 when the former Oxford School of Art was established. In 1992 it became a university and was renamed to honour its former principal, John Henry Brookes.\n1865 (Oxford School of Art)\n1891 (Oxford City Technical School)\n1956 (Oxford College of Technology)\n1970 (Oxford Polytechnic)\n1992 (Oxford Brookes University)\n\u00a32.5 million (at 2015)[1]\nhttp://www.brookes.ac.uk\nThe university is divided into four faculties, Business, Health and Life Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Technology, Design and Environment. In 2011, Oxford Brookes University was the sixth largest employer in Oxfordshire.[4]\nOxford Brookes University is nationally ranked 63rd by The Times, 41st by The Guardian and 66th by The Complete University Guide. In 2018, the QS World University Rankings named it the only UK university on its list of 'Top 50 universities under 50 years old' in the world.[5]\nOxford Brookes University started in 1865 as the Oxford School of Art, located in a single room on the ground floor of the Taylor Institution at St Giles', Oxford.[6] In 1870 the School of Science was added and in 1891, under the administration of the City Council's Technical Instruction Committee, it was renamed the Oxford City Technical School, incorporating the School of Art, which remained distinct. Plans were made to relocate to the former Blue Coat School for Boys on St. Ebbes.\nIn 1934 the School of Art and the Technical School were merged and John Henry Brookes, Head of the School of Art and Vice Principal of the Technical School, was appointed the first principal of the merged institution.[7] By 1950 the college had 4,000 students. A new campus was built on a site offered by the local Morrell brewing family. Renamed \"Oxford College of Technology\", it opened on the new site in 1956.[7] Its first residence hall was established in 1960 and the college relocated to Headington in 1963.\nIn 1970, it became Oxford Polytechnic. In 1976, it took over the former Lady Spencer-Churchill College, which had been founded in Wheatley in August 1965, and in 1992 it incorporated the Dorset House School of Occupational Therapy, the first School of Occupational Therapy in the UK.[8]. Later in 1992, following enactment of the Further and Higher Education Act, it became Oxford Brookes University, the only one of the new universities to be named after its founder.[citation needed] In 2000, it took over the site of Westminster College, Oxford, basing its education and theological activities on the site, although theology was withdrawn in 2015.\nIn October 2003, Oxford Brookes University became the first university in the world to be awarded Fairtrade status.[9]\nBaroness Kennedy served as the university's Chancellor from 1993 to 2001.[10] In 2007, Graham Upton retired as Vice-Chancellor and his successor, Janet Beer, was inaugurated in September.[11] In July 2008, Shami Chakrabarti, Director of Liberty, replaced Jon Snow as chancellor of the university.[12]\nIn March 2015 Alistair Fitt was inaugurated as Vice-Chancellor, replacing Janet Beer.[13] Dame Katherine Grainger British Olympic rower also replaced Shami Chakrabarti as Chancellor.[14] Katherine is Britain's most decorated female Olympic athlete and the first British woman to win medals at five successive games[15] (Rio 2016, London 2012, Beijing in 2008, Athens in 2004 and Sydney in 2000). She was made a Dame for her services to rowing and charity in the 2017 New Years Honours.\nIn 2015 Oxford Brookes University celebrated its 150th anniversary. A range of events and activities took place including celebrations recognising John Henry Brookes, the university's modern founder. The first Founder's Day was held in May 2016.[16]\nOxford Brookes University has three main campuses and a fourth in Swindon.\nHeadington Campus 51\u00b045\u203215.36\u2033N 1\u00b013\u203221.72\u2033W\ufeff / \ufeff51.7542667\u00b0N 1.2227000\u00b0W\ufeff / 51.7542667; -1.2227000\nHeadington Hill Hall, the home of the School of Law\nMarston Road site, Faculty of Health and Life Sciences\nThe Headington Campus is in a residential area of Oxford. The campus is made up of three sites; the main site on Gipsy Lane, home to a number of departments from across the university's four academic faculties and the John Henry Brookes Building which opened in 2014. Across the road is the Headington Hill site, home to the School of Arts and School of Law, and a short walk from main site is the Marston Road site a dedicated space for the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences and home to subjects including Nursing, Midwifery and Occupational Therapy.\nLocated on the campus are the main halls of residence, including Crescent Hall, Cheney Student Village, Clive Booth Hall, Clive Booth non-en suite (formerly Morrell Hall), Warneford Hall and Paul Kent Hall.\nWheatley Campus 51\u00b045\u20322.53\u2033N 1\u00b07\u203241.6\u2033W\ufeff / \ufeff51.7507028\u00b0N 1.128222\u00b0W\ufeff / 51.7507028; -1.128222\nThe Wheatley Campus is near Wheatley in the Oxfordshire countryside, seven miles south-east of the city centre, and is where information technology, mathematics and engineering are taught.The tall tower block can be seen from the A40 dual carriageway. The top 4 floors of the tower was initially closed in the early 2000's following the suicide of a student from the top. 5 years later the rest of the tower was shut after asbestos was found and the building was deemed unsafe to house students. The campus is set for closure in 2021, where the subjects taught at Wheatley will move to Headington Campus.\nHarcourt Hill Campus 51\u00b044\u203223.75\u2033N 1\u00b017\u203228.45\u2033W\ufeff / \ufeff51.7399306\u00b0N 1.2912361\u00b0W\ufeff / 51.7399306; -1.2912361\nThe Harcourt Hill Campus is situated on Harcourt Hill on Oxford's western perimeter, two and a half miles from the city centre. Education, philosophy, religion, theology, Media and Communication, and many other subjects are taught here. It has two halls of residence: Harcourt Hill Hall and Westminster Hall. A regular devoted bus service links the campus to other campuses at Headington and Wheatley. It is also home to the University's leisure centre.\nThe campus was formerly the site of Westminster College, Oxford, an independent Methodist higher education institution which specialised in teacher training and theology. The campus was leased to Brookes by the Methodist Church, and Westminster College became the Westminster Institute of Education of Oxford Brookes University, located at the Harcourt Hill campus.\nSwindon Campus 51\u00b033\u203237.87\u2033N 1\u00b048\u203259.74\u2033W\ufeff / \ufeff51.5605194\u00b0N 1.8165944\u00b0W\ufeff / 51.5605194; -1.8165944\nOxford Brookes University opened its new Swindon campus in August 2016.[17] The university moved from the former Ferndale campus in Swindon to a new, larger campus situated to the west of the town centre at the Delta Business Park. The building is named the Joel Joffe Building after Lord Joel Joffe, long-time Swindon resident and former human-rights lawyer. Adult Nursing, Operating Department Practice (ODP) and a range of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses are taught there. The new campus features a 185-seat lecture theatre, new library and social learning spaces, teaching rooms and three clinical skills suites.\nOxford Brookes University partners with Swindon College as part of its Associate College Partnership to deliver foundation and degree courses, provides widening participation activity with local schools.\nThe front of the new 'John Henry Brookes' building.\nThe former main reception in 2013\nIn recent years the university has seen major redevelopments including the opening of the \u00a3132 million John Henry Brookes Building, named after the University's spiritual leader,[18] which opened on the Headington campus in 2014. It brings together the library and teaching spaces with student support services and the Students\u2019 Union (Brookes Union), who were formerly housed in the Helena Kennedy Centre on the Headington Hill site. The building has won multiple awards including a Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) National Award; three RIBA regional awards; Oxford Preservation Trust Award and the Student Experience category of the 2014 Education Estates Awards.[19]\nIn 2013 the redeveloped Abercrombie Building opened on the Headington campus, offering facilities for architecture students with design studios and collaborative learning spaces. In October 2014 it won the Architect's Journal Retrofit Award.[20]\nIn January 2015 Oxford Brookes University announced a major estates investment for the next 10 years, with \u00a313 million per year to be spent on redevelopment across all its campuses.[21] This is to include additional building on the Headington and Harcourt campuses as well as a new campus in Swindon. Part of this investment will see all activity moved from the Wheatley campus by 2021/22. The Oxford Brookes Business School moved from the Wheatley campus to refurbished buildings at Headington campus in 2017 with other departments to move to new buildings on the Headington Hill site in 2020.\nThe university's original redevelopment proposals were vigorously opposed by local residents in 2009 when presented to the local planning committee, with many undesirable aspects of the large student population in Oxford being discussed. However, the plans for the new building were eventually approved and building work began in 2010.\nOxford Brookes University has four faculties[22] which sit across its four campuses.\nDepartment of Sport, Health Sciences and Social Work (including the Functional Food Centre)\nDepartment of Computing and Communication Technologies\nDepartment of Mechanical Engineering and Mathematical Sciences\nQS (2019)[26]\nOxford Brookes University was ranked among the world's top institutions in 16 subjects and four subject areas in the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2017[29]\nIn 2016 Oxford Brookes University was listed as one of the world's top universities for its international outlook in the Times Higher Education's (THE) Top 200 international universities.[30]\nIt is among the top 400 universities in the world, ranked 361[31] in the QS World University Rankings 2018.\nHotcourses UK ranked Oxford Brookes University in the top 15 of the most culturally diverse institutions in the UK in July 2016.[32]\nOxford Brookes University has retained its top ten world ranking in the QS Distance Online MBA Ranking 2017 for its MBA programme.[33]\nIn July 2016 Headington and Harcourt Hill campuses received a Green Flag Award for the quality of their green spaces for the fifth year in a row.\nThe university has 10 National Teaching Fellowships from the Higher Education Authority and was among the top 25 in the UK for teaching quality in the Times Good University Guide 2016.[34]\nIn 2016 Oxford Brookes University achieved an overall satisfaction rate of 87%[35] in the National Student Survey (NSS) higher than the national average of 86%.

        "raw_content": "The trunnions are the protrusions from the side of the barrel that rest on the carriage.\nA trunnion (from Old French \"trognon\", trunk[1]) is a cylindrical protrusion used as a mounting or pivoting point. First associated with cannons, they are an important military development.[2]\nAlternatively, a trunnion is a shaft that positions and supports a tilting plate. This is a misnomer, as in reality it is a cradle for the true trunnion.\nTrunnion positions saw table and provides a pivot point.\nIn mechanical engineering (see the trunnion bearing section below), it is one part of a rotating joint where a shaft (the trunnion) is inserted into (and turns inside) a full or partial cylinder.\nIn a cannon, the trunnions are two projections cast just forward of the center of mass of the cannon and fixed to a two-wheeled movable gun carriage.[3] As they allowed the muzzle to be raised and lowered easily, the integral casting of trunnions is seen by military historians as one of the most important advances in early field artillery.[citation needed]\n16th-century depiction of a cannon with trunnions\nWith the creation of larger and more powerful siege guns in the early 15th century, a new way of mounting them had to be specially designed. Stouter gun carriages were created with reinforced wheels, axles, and \u201ctrails\u201d which extended behind the gun. Guns were now as long as eight feet in length and they were capable of shooting iron projectiles weighing from twenty-five to fifty pounds. When discharged, these wrought iron balls were comparable in range and accuracy with stone-firing bombards.[4]\nTrunnions were mounted near the center of mass to allow the barrel to be elevated to any desired angle, without having to dismount it from the carriage upon which it rested. Some guns had a second set of trunnions placed several feet back from the first pair, which could be used to allow for easier transportation.[5] The gun would recoil causing the carriage to move backwards several feet but men or a team of horses could put it back into firing position. It became easier to rapidly transport these large siege guns, maneuver them from transportation mode to firing position, and they could go wherever a team of men or horses could pull them.[6]\nInitial significanceEdit\nDue to its capabilities, the French- and Burgundy-designed siege gun, equipped with its trunnions, required little significant modification from around 1465 to the 1840s.\nGun trunnions often bear factory markings\nKing Charles VIII and the French army used this new gun in the 1494 invasion of Italy. Although deemed masters of war and artillery at that time, Italians had not anticipated the innovations in French siege weaponry. Prior to this, field artillery guns were huge, large-caliber bombards: superguns that, along with enormous stones or other projectiles, were dragged from destination to destination. These behemoths could only be used effectively in sieges, and more often than not provided just a psychological effect on the battlefield; owning these giant mortars did not guarantee any army a victory. The French saw the limitations of these massive weapons and focused their efforts on improving their smaller and lighter guns, which used smaller, more manageable projectiles combined with larger amounts of gunpowder. Equipping them with trunnions was key for two reasons: teams of horses could now move these cannons fast enough to keep up with their armies, without having to stop and dismount them from their carriages to achieve the proper range before firing. Francesco Guicciardini, an Italian historian and statesman, sometimes referred to as the \u201cFather of History,\u201d wrote that the cannons were placed against town walls so quickly, spaced together so closely and shot so rapidly and with such force that the time for a significant amount of damage to be inflicted went from a matter of days (as with bombards) to a matter of hours.[4] For the first time in history, as seen in the 1512 battle of Ravenna and the 1515 Battle of Marignano, artillery weaponry played a very decisive part in the victory of the invading army over the city under siege.[7] Cities that had proudly withstood sieges for up to seven years fell swiftly with the advent of these new weapons.\nDefensive tactics and fortifications had to be altered since these new weapons could be transported so speedily and aimed with much more accuracy at strategic locations. Two significant changes were the additions of a ditch and low, sloping ramparts of packed earth that would surround the city and absorb the impact of the cannonballs (glacis), and the replacement of round watchtowers with angular bastions. These towers would be deemed trace Italienne.[8]\nWhoever could afford these new weapons had the tactical advantage over their neighbors and smaller sovereignties, which could not incorporate them into their army. Smaller states, such as the principalities of Italy, began to conglomerate. Preexisting stronger entities, such as France or the Habsburg emperors, were able to expand their territories and maintain tighter control over the land they already occupied. With the potential threat of their land and castles being seized, the nobility began to pay their taxes and more closely follow their ruler\u2019s mandates. With siege guns mounted on trunnions, stronger and larger states were formed, but because of this, struggles between neighboring governments with consolidated power began to ensue and would continue to plague Europe for the next few centuries.[6]\nUsagesEdit\nIn firearmsEdit\nIn firearms, the barrel is sometimes mounted in a trunnion, which in turn is mounted in the receiver. This usage is common for tubular or pressed metal frame guns, such as the AK-47, G3, PPSh-41, Sten, Uzi and others, in which case the BATFE refers to the trunnion as a \"mounting block\".\nIn vehiclesEdit\nIn older cars, the trunnion is part of the suspension and either allows free movement of the rear wheel hub in relation to the chassis[9] or allows the front wheel hub to rotate with the steering. On many cars (such as those made by the Triumph[10]) the trunnion is machined from a brass or bronze casting and is prone to failure if not greased properly.[11] American Motors recommended lubrication of its pre-packed front suspension trunnions using a sodium base grease every 32,000 miles (51,000 km) or three years.[12] It later incorporated molded rubber \"Clevebloc\" bushings on the upper trunnion to seal out dirt and retain silicone lubricant for the life of the car.[13]\nIn aviation, the term refers to the structural component that attaches the undercarriage or landing gear to the airframe.[14] For aircraft equipped with retractable landing gear, the trunnion is pivoted to permit rotation of the entire gear assembly.[15]\nIn heavy equipment, such as a bulldozer, the term refers to the protrusions on the vehicle frame on which the blade frame attaches and hinges allowing vertical movement.\nIn Chevrolet GMC C/K pickup trucks, the term refers to the tailgate attachment points. Rather than using conventional tailgate hinges, trunnions are used to permit quick toolless removal and installation of the pickup tailgate.\nIn axles, the term refers to the type of suspension used on a multi-axle configurations. It is a \"short axle pivoted at or near its mid-point about a horizontal axis transverse to its own centerline, normally used in pairs in conjunction with a walking beam in order to achieve two axis of oscillation.\"[16] This type of suspension allows 60,000 pounds (27,000 kg) to be loaded on an axle group.[17]\nIn trailers, leveling jacks may have trunnion mounts.[18]\nIn the valve train of a pushrod engine, the term refers to the fixed axle that acts as a pivot point for the valve rocker.\nIn other technologyEdit\nIn steam engines, they are supporting gudgeon pins on either side of an oscillating steam cylinder. They are usually tubular and convey steam.\nOn communication satellites, the antennas are usually mounted on a pair of trunnions to allow the beam pattern to be correctly pointed on the Earth from the geostationary orbit.\nOn stage lighting instruments, a trunnion is a bracket attached to both ends of a striplight that allows the striplight to be mounted on the floor. Sometimes trunnions are also equipped with casters to allow the striplight to be moved easily.\nIn woodworking, they are the assembly that holds a saw's arbor to the underside of the saw table.\nIn waste collection, the trunnion is the bar on the front of a Dumpster that connects to the back of a garbage truck.\nOn the Space Shuttle, trunnion pins are affixed to the sides of payload items allowing them to be secured to receivers mounted on the sills of the payload bay. These receivers can be remotely commanded to secure and release selected items. Similar keel pins protrude from the nadir side of payload items, into matching holes in the bottom of the payload bay.\nOn hydraulic cylinders, a trunnion (either featuring external pins or internal pockets) can be an alternative body mounting type, as opposed to a flange or pin eye.\nIn steelmaking, on the Bessemer converter. There are trunnions on either side to be able to pour out the molten steel.\nIn surveying total stations and theodolites, the trunnion axis is the axis about which the telescope transits. It is parallel to the horizontal axis defined by the tubular spirit bubble.\nIn Dobsonian telescope designs.\nIn structural engineering, a type of bascule bridge, with the road deck on one side of the trunnion, and the counterweight on the other.\nIn laboratory centrifuges, trunnions are used to pivot sample buckets in swinging-bucket rotors.\nIn nuclear power plants, when the steam generators are replaced, trunnions are used to upend them, to get them on the rail system, to shuttle them out of containment.\nIn some vacuum cleaners, there is a part called a \"Trunnion Cover\"[19][20]\u2014so those vacuum cleaners probably contain [something called] a trunnion.\nIn wind turbine generators, trunnions are used as two of three or more mounting points for the gearbox (transferring power from the rotor to the generator)which allows for limited movement due to torque variations and an accessible way to remote and service the drive-train .\nTrunnion bearingsEdit\nIn mechanical engineering, it is one part of a rotating joint where a shaft (the trunnion) is inserted into (and turns inside) a full or partial cylinder. Often used in opposing pairs, this joint allows tight tolerances and strength from a large surface contact area between the trunnion and the cylinder.[21]\nPhiladelphia Penrose bridge c. 1880 (shown open) swings on a trunnion bearing.\nIn airframe engineering, these are self-contained concentric bearings that are designed to offer fluid movement in a critical area of the steering.\nThe term is also used to describe the wheel that a rotating cylinder runs on. For example, a lapidary (stone-polishing) cylinder runs on a pair of rollers, similar to trunnions. The sugar industry uses rotating cylinders up to 22 feet (7 m) in diameter, 131 ft (40 m) long, and weighing around 1,000 tons. These rotate at around 30 revolutions per hour. They are supported on a pathring, which runs on trunnions. Similar devices called rotary kilns are used in cement manufacturing.\nIn mining, some refining plants utilise drum scrubbers in the process that are supported by a large trunnion and associated trunnion bearings at each end.\n^ \"trunnion \u2013 definition of trunnion by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia\".

        "raw_content": "Chest X-ray of a 30-year-old healthy man, with the costodiaphragmatic recess label in red ellipse\nFront view of thorax, showing the relations of the pleurae and lungs to the chest wall\n(pleura in blue and lungs in purple)\nRecessus costodiaphragmaticus\nThe costodiaphragmatic recess, also called the costophrenic recess or phrenicocostal sinus,[1] is a potential space in the pleural cavity, at the posterior-most tips of the cavity, located at the junction of the costal pleura and diaphragmatic pleura (in the costophrenic angle). It measures approximately 5 cm vertically and extends from the eighth to the tenth rib along the mid-axillary line.\n2.2 Pleural effusion\nThe lungs expand into this recess during forced inspiration; however, the recess never fills completely. During expiration, it contains no lung tissue, only pleural fluid.\nPleural effusions collect in the costodiaphragmatic recess when in standing position.[2]\nA thoracocentesis (pleural tap) is often performed here while a patient is in full expiration because of less risk of puncturing the lungs and thereby causing pneumothorax.[2]\nComparison between a normal costophrenic angle on the patient's right, and an obscured costophrenic angle (circled) on the patient's left, due to pneumonia with parapneumonic effusion.\nIn anatomy, the costophrenic angles are the places where the diaphragm (-phrenic) meets the ribs (costo-).\nEach costophrenic angle can normally be seen as on chest x-ray as a sharply-pointed, downward indentation (dark) between each hemi-diaphragm (white) and the adjacent chest wall (white). A small portion of each lung normally reaches into the costophrenic angle. The normal angle usually measures thirty degrees.\nPleural effusion[edit]\nWith pleural effusion, fluid often builds up in the costophrenic angle (due to gravity). This can push the lung upwards, resulting in \"blunting\" of the costophrenic angle. The posterior angle is the deepest. Obtuse angulation is sign of disease.\nChest x-ray is the first test done to confirm the presence of pleural fluid. The lateral upright chest x-ray should be examined when a pleural effusion is suspected. In an upright x-ray, 75 mL of fluid blunts the posterior costophrenic angle. Blunting of the lateral costophrenic angle usually requires about 175 mL but may take as much as 500 mL. Larger pleural effusions opacify portions of the hemithorax and may cause mediastinal shift; effusions > 4 L may cause complete opacification of the hemithorax and mediastinal shift to the contralateral side.[citation needed]\n^ drugs.com > phrenicocostal-sinus Retrieved May 2011\n^ a b drugs.com > costodiaphragmatic-recess Retrieved May 2011\n\"Anatomy diagram: 02101.002-1\".

Lindsay\nBarry Karr\ncenterforinquiry.org\nFront entrance of Center For Inquiry Transnational\nThe Center for Inquiry (CFI) is a nonprofit educational organization. Its primary mission is to foster a secular society based on science, reason, freedom of inquiry, and humanist values.[1] CFI has headquarters in the United States and a number of international branches.\nCenter for Inquiry focuses on two primary subject areas:[2]\nInvestigation of Paranormal and Fringe Science Claims through the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry\nReligion, Ethics, and Society through the Council for Secular Humanism\nCFI is also active in promoting a scientific approach to medicine and health. The organization has been described as a think tank[3][4] and as a non-governmental organization.[5][6]\nIn January 2016, the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science announced that it was merging with the Center for Inquiry, with Robyn Blumner as the CEO of the combined organizations.[7][8][9][10][11]\n1.2 Departure of founder\n2 Paranormal and fringe science claims\n2.1 The Independent Investigations Group\n3 Religion, ethics, and society\n5 Projects and programs\n5.1 Center for Inquiry On Campus\n5.2 Skeptic's Toolbox\n5.3 Center for Inquiry Libraries\n5.4 Secular Rescue\n5.5 Office of Public Policy\n5.6 \"Science and the Public\" Master of Education program\n5.7 Skeptics and Humanist Aid and Relief Effort\n6 Past projects and programs\n6.1 Camp Inquiry\n6.2 CFI Institute\n6.3 Medicine and health\n6.4 Naturalism Research Project\n7 CFI organization and locations\n7.1 International activities\n7.2 University exchange programs\n7.3 Centre for Inquiry Canada\n8 Affiliate organizations\n9.1 Consumer fraud lawsuit against CVS\n9.2 Wyndgate Country Club and Richard Dawkins, 2011\n9.3 CSH actions against faith-based initiatives\n9.4 Heckled at the UN\n9.5 Blasphemy Day\nPhilosopher Paul Kurtz (left) and author Martin Gardner at a CSICOP executive council meeting in 1979\nThe Center for Inquiry was established in 1991 by philosopher and author Paul Kurtz. It brought together two organizations: the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal[12] (CSICOP) and the Council for Secular Humanism[13] (CSH). CSICOP and CSH had previously operated in tandem but were now formally affiliated under one umbrella.\nCFI Lecture Hall\nBy 1995 CFI had expanded into a new headquarters in Amherst, New York, and in 1996 opened its first branch office in Los Angeles, CFI West currently named CFI Los Angeles.[14] In the same year, CFI founded the Campus Freethought Alliance, organizing college students around its areas of interest.\nBy 1997 CFI had begun expanding its efforts internationally through an association with Moscow State University.\nBetween 2002 and 2003 CFI opened two new branches in New York City[15] and Tampa, Florida[16] in addition to expanding its west coast branch into a new building in Hollywood, California. Located on Hollywood Boulevard, CFI Los Angeles also became home to the Steve Allen Theater, named after the former Tonight Show host and CFI supporter. This property was sold in 2017 and CFI Los Angeles is now located at 2535 W, Temple St. Los Angeles, CA 90026.[17][18]\nIn 2004, CFI continued to expand into cities across the United States with the creation of a network of community organizations called CFI Communities.[19]\nIn 2005 CFI once again expanded its Amherst headquarters with a new research wing. Additionally, CFI was granted special consultative status with the United Nations the same year.[20]\nSince 2006 CFI has been expanding rapidly with a series of new branches in cities across North America and around the world. These include new Centers for Inquiry in Toronto, London, Washington, D.C., Indianapolis, Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Austin, Texas. The branch in Washington is headquarters to CFI's Office of Public Policy, which represents CFI's interests on Capitol Hill.\nTheir former affiliated organizations, the Council for Secular Humanism and the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, ceased to exist as independent organizations, and have become programs of Center for Inquiry, since January 2015.[21]\nLogo before its merger with the Richard Dawkins Foundation.\nIn January 2016, CFI announced that it was merging with the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science, with Robyn Blumner as the CEO of the combined organizations.[7][8][9][10][22]\nDeparture of founder[edit]\nAccording to Paul Kurtz, in June 2009, being at odds with new CEO Ronald Lindsay, Kurtz was voted out as chairman. Kurtz has described the direction of CFI under Lindsay as \"angry atheism\" in contrast to his affirmative humanist philosophical approach.[23] According to Ronald Lindsay,\"Paul Kurtz voluntarily resigned from his positions with CFI and all its affiliates, including his position as editor-in-chief of Free Inquiry.\"[24] The Center for Inquiry Board Statement from 2010, thanks Kurtz for his \"decades of service\" and claims that \"Much of CFI\u2019s success is due to Paul Kurtz\u2019s inspiration and leadership.\" The release states that with Kurtz's encouragement, new leadership was sought out, with the goal of transitioning Kurtz away from the CEO position. The Board according to CFI prior to 2010 had become concerned with Kurtz's \"day-to-day management of the organization. In June 2008, the board appointed Dr. Ronald A. Lindsay president & CEO; in June 2009, the board elected Richard Schroeder chairman, with Dr. Kurtz moving to chairman emeritus.\" In May 2010, the Board accepted Kurtz's resignation from CFI.[25]\nParanormal and fringe science claims[edit]\nJoe Nickell, Research Fellow at the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry\nThrough the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI), and its journal, Skeptical Inquirer magazine, published by the Center for Inquiry, CSI evaluates claims of the paranormal (phenomena allegedly beyond the range of normal scientific explanations), such as psychic phenomena, ghosts, communication with the dead, and alleged extraterrestrial visitations. It also explores the fringes and borderlands of the sciences, attempting to separate strictly evidence-based research from pseudosciences.\nCSICOP was, alongside magician and prominent skeptic James Randi, sued by TV celebrity Uri Geller in the 1990s over claims made in the International Herald Tribune. The case ran for several years with Geller ordered to pay costs and other charges, and was ultimately settled in 1995.[26]\nThe Independent Investigations Group[edit]\nIIG \"Power Balance\" testing exercise\nMain article: Independent Investigations Group\nThe Independent Investigations Group, a volunteer group based at CFI Los Angeles, undertakes experimental testing of fringe claims.[27] It offers a cash prize (as of 2014 this has a value of USD 100,000) for successful demonstration of supernatural effects.[28] The IIG Awards (known as \"Iggies\") are presented for \"scientific and critical thinking in mainstream entertainment\". IIG has investigated, amongst other things, power bracelets, psychic detectives and a 'telepathic wonder dog'.\nReligion, ethics, and society[edit]\nLogo of the Council for Secular Humanism.\nThe Center promotes critical inquiry into the foundations and social effects of the world religions. Since 1983, initially through its connection with Committee for the Scientific Examination of Religion, it has focused on such issues as fundamentalism in Christianity and Islam, humanistic alternatives to religious ethics, and religious sources of political violence. It has taken part in protests against religious persecution around the world[29] and opposes religious privilege, for example benefits for clergy in the US Tax Code.[30]\nCFI actively supports secular interests, such as secular state education.[31][32] It organizes conferences, such as Women In Secularism [33][34] and a conference focused on freethought advocate Robert Ingersoll.[35] CFI has provided meeting and conference facilities to other skeptical organisations, for example an atheist of color conference on social justice.[36][37]\nCFI also undertakes atheist education and support activities,[38] for example sending freethought books to prisoners as part of its Freethought Books Project.[39][40]\nCFI is active in advocating free speech,[41] and in promoting secular government.[42] It speaks against institutional religion in the armed forces.[43]\nFree Inquiry is published by the Center for Inquiry, in association with the Council for Secular Humanism.\nTom Flynn, editor of Free Inquiry\nThe results of research and activities supported by the Center and its affiliates are published and distributed to the public in seventeen separate national and international magazines, journals, and newsletters. Among them are CSH's Free Inquiry and Secular Humanist Bulletin,[44] and CSI's Skeptical Inquirer, CFI's American Rationalist.[45] The Scientific Review of Alternative Medicine, The Scientific Review of Mental Health Practice[46] and Philo, a journal covering philosophical issues, are no longer being published.\nCFI has produced the weekly radio show and podcast, Point of Inquiry since 2005. Episodes are available free for download from iTunes. Current host, as of June 2017, is Paul Fidalgo. Notable guests have included Steven Pinker, Neil deGrasse Tyson and Richard Dawkins.\nProjects and programs[edit]\nCenter for Inquiry On Campus[edit]\nCFI Student Conference 2013 - Amherst, NY. Center, Eddie Tabash, a director of CFI\nCFI On Campus[47] (originally the Campus Freethought Alliance) is a program launched by the Council for Secular Humanism in 1996 by Derek Araujo and others in order to reach out to university and high school students. The Center for Inquiry On Campus provides funding, speakers or debaters, literature, and other promotional and educational resources to student groups that affiliate, and supports over 200 campus groups around the world.\nCenter for Inquiry On Campus is directed by Debbie Goddard, who is also the director of African Americans for Humanism.[48][49] CFI on Campus employs a staff of organizers who help CFI student groups to advance their aims at their respective schools.\nSkeptic's Toolbox[edit]\nA lecture given by Ray Hyman at Skeptic's Toolbox 2012\nMain article: Skeptic's Toolbox\nThe Skeptic's Toolbox was an annual four-day workshop at the University of Oregon, Eugene sponsored by CFI[50] devoted to scientific skepticism. It was formed by psychologist and now-retired University of Oregon professor Ray Hyman, has been held every August since 1992. The workshop focuses on educating people to be better critical thinkers, and involves a central theme. The attendees are broken up into groups and given tasks that they must work on together and whose results they must present in front of the entire group on the last day.\nCenter for Inquiry Libraries[edit]\nThe Center for Inquiry Libraries[51] began as a small collection of books located in the offices of CSICOP in the late 1970s. When the first expansion of the Center for Inquiry building was completed in 1995, the library was prominently featured. The building opened on June 9, 1995, with such luminaries as Leon Jaroff, Herbert Hauptman, Stan Lundine, and Kendrick Frazier attending, and Steve Allen, prominent supporter of CFI, spoke at the opening ceremony.[52]\nGordon Stein was the Libraries\u2019 first director and acquired a large number of rare materials. Timothy Binga has been the Director of Libraries since 1996, and has been instrumental in the cataloging and organization of the large amount of materials acquired.\nCFI Library\nCFI\u2019s Libraries were created along the same lines as the organization; CSICOP and the Council for Secular Humanism had their own libraries, and there were a number of shared libraries and collections as well. Highlights of the various collections include materials from Martin Gardner (some papers and books), Steve Allen (bound notebooks of clippings, notes, letters, and tipped-in pamphlets organized by subject), Martin T. Orne collection of books, papers, and case notes, and books and papers of noted philosophers Abraham Edel, Paul Edwards, Patrick Romanell, and Joseph Blau.[53]\nIt total, the books number around 70,000 volumes; this includes the world\u2019s foremost collections on skepticism, humanism, and freethought. Also, there are world-class collections on science, philosophy, American Philosophical Naturalism, the occult and paranormal, atheism, and other items related to the mission of the Center for Inquiry. In addition, there are archives, a reference section, periodicals, microfilm, and AV materials.\nThe Rare Book Room contains a signed Elizabeth Cady Stanton autobiography, first editions of such works as The Age of Reason by Thomas Paine, Reason: The Only Oracle of Man by Ethan Allen, many signed works by Robert Green Ingersoll, hard copies of The Truth Seeker (the newspaper of record for the Golden Age of Freethought), and a collection of Little Blue Books.\nCFI Libraries are a member of OCLC,[54] the Western New York Library Resources Council (WNYLRC),[54] New York Heritage and the Digital Public Library of America.\nSecular Rescue[edit]\nThe Center for Inquiry has an emergency fund called Secular Rescue, formerly known as the Freethought Emergency Fund.[55] The fund is used to help freethought activists whose lives are under threat by Islamic radicals linked to Al Qaeda.[56] Between 2015 and 2018, Secular Rescue, helped thirty individuals fleeing anti-secular regimes gain asylum.[57]\nOffice of Public Policy[edit]\nThe Office of Public Policy (OPP) is the Washington D.C. political arm of the Center for Inquiry. The OPP\u2019s mandate is to lobby Congress and the Administration on issues related to science and secularism. This includes defending the separation of church and state, promoting science and reason as the basis of public policy, and advancing secular values.[58]\nThe OPP publishes position statements on its subjects of interest. Examples have included acupuncture, climate change, contraception and intelligent design.[59] The Office is an active participant in legal matters, providing experts for Congress testimony and amicus briefs in Supreme Court cases.[60] It publishes a list of bills it considers of interest as they pass through the U.S. legislative process.[61]\n\"Science and the Public\" Master of Education program[edit]\nIn partnership with the Graduate School of Education at the State University of New York at Buffalo, CFI offers an accredited Master of Education program in Science and the Public, available entirely online.[62] Aimed at students preparing for careers in research, science education, public policy, science journalism, or further study in sociology, history and philosophy of science, science communication, education, or public administration, the program explores the methods and outlook of science as they intersect with public culture, scientific literacy, and public policy.\nSkeptics and Humanist Aid and Relief Effort[edit]\nThe Skeptics and Humanist Aid and Relief Effort (previously the name began with the phrase \"Secular Humanist\") provides \"an alternative for those who wish to contribute to charitable efforts without the intermediary of a religious organization in times of great need.\"[63] As of January 2010, all funds are being directed to the group Doctors Without Borders to aid the survivors of the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Previous relief efforts have included aid for survivors of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake and the October 2007 California wildfires.[64]\nPast projects and programs[edit]\nThe following projects and programs are no longer active.\nCamp Inquiry[edit]\nThe Center for Inquiry organized an annual summer camp for children called Camp Inquiry,[65] focusing on scientific literacy, critical thinking, naturalism, the arts, humanities, and humanist ethical development.[66] Camp Inquiry has been described as \"a summer camp for kids with questions\"[67] where spooky stories were followed by \"reverse engineering sessions\" as the participants were encouraged to determine the cause of an apparently supernatural experience. Camp Inquiry has been criticised as \"Jesus Camp in reverse\"; its organisers countered that the camp is not exclusive to atheist children and that campers are encouraged to draw their own conclusions based on empirical and critical thinking.\nCFI Institute[edit]\nThe Center for Inquiry Institute[68] offered undergraduate level online courses, seminars, and workshops in critical thinking and the scientific outlook and its implications for religion, human values, and the borderlands of science. In addition to transferable undergraduate credit through the University at Buffalo system, CFI offered a thirty credit-hour Certificate of Proficiency in Critical Inquiry. The three-year curriculum plan offered summer sessions at the main campus at the University at Buffalo in Amherst.\nMedicine and health[edit]\nThe Commission for Scientific Medicine and Mental Health (CSMMH)[69] stimulated critical scientific scrutiny of New Age medicine and the schools of psychotherapy. It supported naturalistic addiction recovery practices through Secular Organizations for Sobriety. CFI challenges the claims of alternative medicine[70] and advocates a scientific basis for healthcare.[71][72] CSMMH papers have covered topics such as pseudoscience in autism treatments[73] and in psychiatry.[74]\nNaturalism Research Project[edit]\nCFI also ran the Naturalism Research Project, a major effort to develop the theoretical and practical applications of philosophical naturalism. As part of this project, CFI\u2019s libraries, research facilities, and conference areas were available to scientists and scholars to advance the understanding of science\u2019s methodologies and conclusions about naturalism.[75]\nActivities of the Naturalism Research Project included lectures and seminars by visiting fellows and scholars; academic conferences; and support CFI publications of important research. Among the central issues of naturalism include the exploration of varieties of naturalism; problems in philosophy of science; the methodologies of scientific inquiry; naturalism and humanism; naturalistic ethics; planetary ethics; and naturalism and the biosciences.[76]\nCFI organization and locations[edit]\nCFI's Rare Book Room, located at their Amherst, NY Headquarters\nCFI is a nonprofit body registered as a charity in the United States.[77] It has 17 locations in the U.S., and has 16 international branches or affiliated organizations.[78] The organization has Centers For Inquiry in Amherst, New York (its headquarters), Los Angeles, New York City, Tampa Bay, Washington, D.C., Indiana, Austin, Chicago, San Francisco and Michigan.[79]\nCFI has branches, representation or affiliated organizations in countries around the world.[79] It organizes its international activities under the banner Center For Inquiry Transnational. In addition, CFI holds consultative status to the United Nations as an NGO under the UN Economic and Social Council.[6] The Center participates in UN Human Rights Council debates, for example a debate on the subject of female genital mutilation during 2014.[80]\nUniversity exchange programs[edit]\nCFI Moscow operates an exchange program where Russian students and scholars are able to visit CFI headquarters in Amherst and participate in a summer institute each year. Additional international programs exist in Germany (Rossdorf), France (Nice), Spain (Bilbao), Poland (Warsaw), Nigeria (Ibadan), Uganda (Kampala), Kenya (Nairobi), Nepal (Kathmandu), India (Pune) (Hyderabad), Egypt (Cairo), China (Beijing), New Zealand (Auckland), Peru (Lima), Argentina (Buenos Aires), Senegal (Dakar), Zambia (Lusaka), and Bangladesh (Dacca).[81]\nCentre for Inquiry Canada[edit]\nMain article: Centre for Inquiry Canada\nCFI Canada (CFIC) is the Canadian branch of CFI Transnational, headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Justin Trottier served as National Executive Director from 2007-2011. Originally established and supported in part by CFI Transnational, CFI Canada has become an independent Canadian national organization with several provincial branches. CFI Canada has branches in Halifax, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Saskatoon, Calgary, Okanagan (Kelowna) and Vancouver.\nAffiliate organizations[edit]\nCentre for Inquiry UK[82][83]\nCommittee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI)\nCommittee for the Scientific Examination of Religion (CSER)\nCommission for Scientific Medicine and Mental Health Practice (CSMMH)[69]\nInstitute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society\nInternational Academy of Humanism\nCFI participates in media debates on science, health,[84] religion and its other areas of interest. Its \"Keep Healthcare Safe and Secular\" campaign promotes scientifically sound healthcare.[72][85] It has been an outspoken critic of dubious and unscientific healthcare practices, and engages in public debate on the merit and legality of controversial medical techniques. In 2014, CEO Ron Lindsay publicly criticized Stanislaw Burzynski's controversial Texas cancer clinic.[86]\nCFI campaigns for a secular society, for example in opposing the addition of prayer text on public property.[87] The Center supports secular and free speech initiatives.[88]\nOn November 14, 2006 the CFI opened its Office of Public Policy in Washington, DC and issued a declaration \"In Defense of Science and Secularism\", which calls for public policy to be based on science rather than faith.[89] The next day the Washington Post ran an article about it entitled \"Think Tank Will Promote Thinking\".[4]\nIn 2011, video expert James Underdown of IIG and CFI Los Angeles did an experiment for \"Miracle Detective\" Oprah Winfrey Network which replicated exactly the angelic apparition that people claim cured a 14-year-old severely disabled child at Presbyterian Hemby Children's Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina. The \"angel\" was sunlight from a hidden window, and the girl remained handicapped.[90]\nConsumer fraud lawsuit against CVS[edit]\nIn July 2018 CFI filed suit against CVS in the District of Columbia for consumer fraud over its sale and marketing of ineffective homeopathic medicine. The lawsuit in part accuses the country\u2019s largest drug retailer of deceiving consumers through its misrepresentation of homeopathy\u2019s safety and effectiveness, wasting customers\u2019 money and putting their health at risk. Nicholas Little, CFI\u2019s Vice President and General Counsel said, \u201cCVS is taking cynical advantage of their customers\u2019 confusion and trust in the CVS brand, and putting their health at risk to make a profit and they can\u2019t claim ignorance. If the people in charge of the country\u2019s largest pharmacy don\u2019t know that homeopathy is bunk, they should be kept as far away from the American healthcare system as possible.\u201d[91]\nWyndgate Country Club and Richard Dawkins, 2011[edit]\nDuring Richard Dawkins' October 2011 book tour, Center for Inquiry - the tour's sponsor - signed a contract with Wyndgate Country Club in Rochester Hills, Michigan, as the venue site. After seeing an interview with Dawkins on The O'Reilly Factor, an official at the club cancelled Dawkins' appearance. Dawkins said that the country club official accepted Bill O'Reilly's \"twisted\" interpretation of his book The Magic of Reality without having read it personally.[92][93] Sean Faircloth said that cancelling the reading \"really violates the basic principles of America ... The Civil Rights Act ... prohibits discrimination based on race or religious viewpoint. ... [Dawkins has] published numerous books ... to explain science to the public, so it's rather an affront, to reason in general, to shun him as they did.\"[94] CFI Michigan executive director Jeff Seaver stated that \"This action by The Wyndgate illustrates the kind of bias and bigotry that nonbelievers encounter all the time.\"[95][96] Following the cancellation, protests and legal action by CFI against the Wyndgate Country Club were pursued.[97][98] In 2013 this case was settled in favor of the Center For Inquiry.[99]\nCSH actions against faith-based initiatives[edit]\nIn 2007, CSH sued the Florida Department of Corrections (DOC) to block the use of state funds in contracts to faith-based programs for released inmates, claiming that this use is prohibited under the \"No Aid\" provision or Blaine amendment of the Florida constitution. The initial decision found in favor of the DOC but, on appeal, the case was remanded in 2010 on just the issue of the unconstitutionality of appropriating state funds for this purpose.[100]\nWhile this case was in progress, after the appellate finding, Republican legislators began an effort to amend the Florida constitution to remove the language of the Blaine amendment, succeeding in 2011 to place the measure on the 2012 ballot as amendment 8.[101][102] The ballot measure failed.[102][103]\nIn 2015, CHS (now CFI) and the state (along with its co-defendants) both filed for summary judgement. The court granted the state's motion in January, 2016, allowing the contested contracting practice to continue.[104] After consideration, CFI announced in February, 2016, that it would not appeal.[105][106]\nHeckled at the UN[edit]\nCFI representative Josephine Macintosh[107] was repeatedly interrupted and heckled whilst presenting the Center's position on censorship at the UN Human Rights Council.[41] CFI advocated free speech, and opposed the punishment by Saudi authorities of Raif Badawi for running an Internet forum, whom they accused of atheism and liberalism. The Saudi delegation objected repeatedly to CFI's statement. CFI drew support from American, Canadian, Irish and French delegates.\nBlasphemy Day[edit]\nMain article: Blasphemy Day\nBlasphemy Rights Day International encourages individuals and groups to openly express their criticism of or outright contempt for religion. It was founded in 2009 by the Center for Inquiry.[108] A student contacted the Center for Inquiry in Amherst, New York to present the idea, which CFI then supported. Ronald Lindsay, president and CEO of the Center for Inquiry said regarding Blasphemy Day, \"We think religious beliefs should be subject to examination and criticism just as political beliefs are, but we have a taboo on religion\", in an interview with CNN.[109] It takes place every September 30 to coincide with the anniversary of the publications of the controversial Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons.\nBlasphemy Day and CFI's related Blasphemy Contests[110] started (in CFI's own words) \"a firestorm of controversy\".[110] The use of confrontational free speech has been a topic of debate within the Humanist movement [111] [112] and cited as an example of a wider move towards New Atheism and away from the more conciliatory approach historically associated with Humanism.[113][114]\n^ \"Home\".

The museum has over 160,000 pieces and documents.[1] The current building was completed in 1973.[2] Collections date from the Middle Ages up to clothes by Spain's contemporary fashion designers. It was declared Bien de Inter\u00e9s Cultural in 1962.[citation needed]\nThe current Museo del Traje dates from 2004. The museum, despite being a newly created institution, has a long and curious history. Its origin lies in the Historic Costume Exhibition, held in 1925. In the keynote address at this event, the Count of Romanones raised the idea of making the temporary exhibition permanent. Two years later he created a Board of Trustees of the Museum who would take charge of the funds of the exhibition, receiving them from the state, and form them into the new Regional Costume Museum and History (1927\u20131934).\nIn 1934, the Count creates the idea of creating another institution to pick up these treasured collections and also the traditions of the Spanish People. This new museum, the Museum of the Spanish Village, acquired the collections of Ethnography and Folk Art at the School of Education, and contained an extensive series of objects that the Regional Trustees acquired between 1934 and 1936. After several changes of venue the collections were moved in 1983 into the building then occupied by the Spanish Museum of Contemporary Art Museo Espa\u00f1ol de Arte Contempor\u00e1neo. In 1993 the Museum of the Spanish Village and the National Museum of Ethnology are united in a single institution, the National Museum of Anthropology (1993\u20132004). However, both continued to operate independently.\nFinally, in 2002, after a general discussion on the future of the museum, it was decided to enhance the public presence of the collection of costumes, from a modern perspective.\nThe architect, Jaime L\u00f3pez de Asia\u00edn, was awarded the National Prize for Architecture in 1969 for this project, construction beginning in 1971. The building was completed in 1973 and inaugurated in 1975.[3] The building was built as the home of the Spanish Museum of Contemporary Art (MEAC), later to become the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sof\u00eda. After the MEAC left the building in 1992 the building lay unused. A restoration of the building was carried out at a cost of 21 million euro in 2005, allowing the building to become the home of the Museo del Traje. The building takes to form of a tower set upon a large horizontal element containing the museum section. All are elevated above the surrounding landscape allowing visitors to walk beneath the building into a shaded courtyard containing a large monumental staircase. Several glass pavilions are set between the ground and the building above.\nThis article is based on an article in Spanish Wikipedia.\n^ http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/museums/museum-profile/Museo+Del+Traje,+C.i.p.e./413.html\n^ http://everymuseummadrid.blogspot.com/2011/09/museum-of-costume-museo-del-traje-10.html\n^ http://www.emporis.com/building/museodeltraje-madrid-spain\nWikimedia Commons has media related to Museo del Traje (Madrid).\nMuseo del Traje - official site\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Museo_del_Traje&oldid=860880514\"\nTextile museums in Spain\nBuildings and structures in Moncloa-Aravaca District, Madrid",

        "raw_content": "Lindsay in 1913\nNicholas Vachel Lindsay (/\u02c8ve\u026at\u0283\u0259l \u02c8l\u026anzi/; November 10, 1879 \u2013 December 5, 1931) was an American poet. He is considered a founder of modern singing poetry, as he referred to it, in which verses are meant to be sung or chanted.\n2 Beginnings as a poet\n3 Poetry as performance\n4 Attitudes towards race\n5.2 Marriage, children and financial troubles\n5.4.1 Literary\n5.4.2 Other legacy\nLindsay was born in Springfield, Illinois where his father, Vachel Thomas Lindsay, worked as a medical doctor and had amassed considerable financial resources. The Lindsays lived across the street from the Illinois Executive Mansion, home of the Governor of Illinois. The location of his childhood home influenced Lindsay, and one of his poems, \"The Eagle Forgotten\", eulogizes Illinois governor John P. Altgeld, whom Lindsay admired for his courage in pardoning the anarchists involved in the Haymarket Affair, despite the strong protests of US President Grover Cleveland.\nGrowing up in Springfield influenced Lindsay in other ways, as evidenced in such poems as \"On the Building of Springfield\" and culminating in poems praising Springfield's most famous resident, Abraham Lincoln. In \"Lincoln\", Lindsay exclaims, \"Would I might rouse the Lincoln in you all!\" In his 1914 poem \"Abraham Lincoln Walks at Midnight (In Springfield, Illinois)\", Lindsay specifically places Lincoln in Springfield, with the poem's opening:\nIt is portentous, and a thing of state\nThat here at midnight, in our little town\nA mourning figure walks, and will not rest...\nLindsay studied medicine at Ohio's Hiram College from 1897 to 1900, but he did not want to be a doctor; his parents were pressuring him toward medicine. Once he wrote to them that he wasn't meant to be a doctor but a painter; they wrote back saying that doctors can draw pictures in their free time. He left Hiram anyway, heading to Chicago to study at the Art Institute of Chicago from 1900 to 1903. In 1904 he left to attend the New York School of Art (now The New School) to study pen and ink. Lindsay remained interested in art for the rest of his life, drawing illustrations for some of his poetry. His art studies also probably led him to appreciate the new art form of silent film.[1] His 1915 book The Art of the Moving Picture is generally considered the first book of film criticism, according to critic Stanley Kauffmann, discussing Lindsay in For the Love of Movies: The Story of American Film Criticism.\nBeginnings as a poet[edit]\nVachel Lindsay in 1912\nWhile in New York in 1905 Lindsay turned to poetry in earnest. He tried to sell his poems on the streets. Self-printing his poems, he began to barter a pamphlet titled \"Rhymes To Be Traded For Bread,\" which he traded for food as a self-perceived modern version of a medieval troubadour.\nFrom March to May, 1906, Lindsay traveled roughly 600 miles on foot from Jacksonville, Florida, to Kentucky, again trading his poetry for food and lodging. From April to May, 1908, Lindsay undertook another poetry-selling trek, walking from New York City to Hiram, Ohio.\nFrom May to September 1912 he traveled\u2014again on foot\u2014from Illinois to New Mexico, trading his poems for food and lodging. During this last trek, Lindsay composed his most famous poem, \"The Congo\". Going through Kansas, he was supposedly so successful that \"he had to send money home to keep his pockets empty\".[2] On his return, Harriet Monroe published in Poetry magazine first his poem \"General William Booth Enters into Heaven\" in 1913 and then \"The Congo\" in 1914. At this point, Lindsay became very well known.\nPoetry as performance[edit]\nUnlike Lindsay's more purely intellectual contemporaries, the poet declaimed his works from the stage, complete with the extravagant gestures of a carnival barker and old time preacher, from the beginning declaring himself to be a product of what he termed 'Higher Vaudeville': \"I think that my first poetic impulse is for music; second a definite conception with the ring of the universe...\" (Vachel Lindsay, Edgar Lee Masters 1935, page 62) This is evidenced by the 1931 recording he made just before his suicide, his still-radical performances of 'The Mysterious Cat', 'The Flower-Fed Buffaloes' and parts of 'The Congo' exhibiting a fiery and furious, zany, at times incoherent delivery that appears to have owed more to jazz than poetry, though the highly religious Lindsay was always reluctant to align himself thus.\nPart of the success and great fame that Lindsay achieved\u2014albeit briefly\u2014was due to the singular manner in which he presented his poetry \"fundamentally as a performance, as an aural and temporal experience...meant...to be chanted, whispered, belted out, sung, amplified by gesticulation and movement, and punctuated by shouts and whoops.\" [2]\nWhirl ye the deadly voo-doo rattle,\nHarry the uplands,\nSteal all the cattle,\nRattle-rattle, rattle-rattle,\nBoomlay, boomlay, boomlay, Boom ...\nThe Congo[3]\nHis best-known poem, \"The Congo,\" exemplified his revolutionary aesthetic of sound for sound's sake. It imitates the pounding of the drums in the rhythms and in onomatopoeic nonsense words. At parts, the poem ceases to use conventional words when representing the chants of Congo's indigenous people, relying just on sound alone.\nLindsay's extensive correspondence with the poet W. B. Yeats details his intentions of reviving the musical qualities of poetry as they were practiced by the ancient Greeks. Because of his identity as a performance artist and his use of American midwestern themes, Lindsay became known in the 1910s as the \"Prairie Troubador.\"\nIn the final twenty years of his life, Lindsay was one of the best known poets in the U.S. His reputation enabled him to befriend, encourage and mentor other poets, such as Langston Hughes and Sara Teasdale. His poetry, though, lacked elements which encouraged the attention of academic scholarship, and, after his death, he became an obscure figure.\nAttitudes towards race[edit]\nMost contemporaries acknowledged Lindsay's intention to be an advocate for African-Americans.[4] This intention was particularly evident in the 1918 poem \"The Jazz Birds\", praising the war efforts of African-Americans during World War I, an issue to which the vast majority of the white US seemed blind. Additionally, W.E.B. Du Bois hailed Lindsay's story \"The Golden-Faced People\" for its insights into racism. Lindsay saw himself as anti-racist not only in his own writing but in his encouragement of a writer; he credited himself with discovering Langston Hughes, who, while working as a busboy at a Washington, D.C., was at the restaurant where Lindsay ate and gave Lindsay copies of his poems.[4]\nHowever, many contemporaries and later critics have contended over whether a couple of Lindsay's poems should be seen as homages to African and African-American music, as perpetuation of the \"savage African\" stereotype, or as both. DuBois, before reading and praising \"the Golden-Faced People,\" wrote in a review of Lindsay's \"Booker T. Washington Trilogy\" that \"Lindsay knows two things, and two things only, about Negroes: The beautiful rhythm of their music and the ugly side of their drunkards and outcasts. From this poverty of material he tries now and then to make a contribution to Negro literature.\" DuBois also criticized \"The Congo,\" which has been the most persistent focus of the criticisms of racial stereotyping in Lindsay's work.\nSubtitled \"A Study of the Negro Race\" and beginning with a section titled \"Their Basic Savagery\", \"The Congo\" reflects the tensions within a relatively isolated and pastoral society suddenly confronted by the industrialized world. The poem was inspired by a sermon preached in October 1913 that detailed the drowning of a missionary in the Congo River; this event had drawn worldwide criticism, as had the colonial exploitation of the Congo under the government of Leopold II of Belgium. Lindsay defended the poem; in a letter to Joel Spingarn, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the NAACP, Lindsay wrote that \"My 'Congo' and 'Booker T. Washington Trilogy' have both been denounced by the Colored people for reasons that I cannot fathom.... The third section of 'The Congo' is certainly as hopeful as any human being dare to be in regard to any race.\" Spingarn responded by acknowledging Lindsay's good intentions, but saying that Lindsay sometimes glamorized differences between people of African descent and people of other races, while many African-Americans wished to emphasize the \"feelings and desires\" that they held in common with others.[5]\nSimilarly, critics in academia often portray Lindsay as a well-meaning but misguided primitivist in his representations of Africans and African Americans. One such critic, Rachel DuPlessis, argues that the poem, while perhaps meant to be \"hopeful,\" actually \"others\" Africans as an inherently violent race. In the poem and in Lindsay's defenses of it, DuPlessis hears Lindsay warning white readers not to be \"hoo-doo'd\" or seduced by violent African \"mumbo jumbo.\" This warning seems to suggest that white civilization has been \"infected\" by African violence; Lindsay thus, in effect, \"blames blacks for white violence directed against them.\" [5] Conversely, Susan Gubar notes approvingly that \"the poem contains lines blaming black violence on white imperialism.\" While acknowledging that the poem seems to have given its author and audiences an excuse to indulge in \"'romantic racism' or 'slumming in slang,'\" she also observes that Lindsay was \"much more liberal than many of his poetic contemporaries,\" and that he seems to have intended a statement against the kind of racist violence perpetrated under Leopold in the Congo.[5]\nFame[edit]\nLindsay's fame as a poet grew in the 1910s. Because Harriet Monroe showcased him with two other Illinois poets \u2014 Carl Sandburg and Edgar Lee Masters \u2014 his name became linked to theirs. The success of either of the other two, in turn, seemed to help the third.\nIn 1932, Edgar Lee Masters published an article on modern poetry in The American Mercury that praised Lindsay extensively[6] and wrote a biography of Lindsay in 1935 (four years after its subject's death) entitled 'Vachel Lindsay: A Poet in America.'\nLindsay himself indicated in the 1915 preface to \"The Congo\" that no less a figure than William Butler Yeats respected his work. Yeats felt they shared a concern for capturing the sound of the primitive and of singing in poetry. In 1915, Lindsay gave a poetry reading to President Woodrow Wilson and the entire Cabinet.[citation needed]\nMarriage, children and financial troubles[edit]\nLindsay's private life was rife with disappointments, such as his unsuccessful courtship in 1914 of fellow poet Sara Teasdale before she married rich businessman Ernst Filsinger. While this itself may have caused Lindsay to become more concerned with money, his financial pressures would greatly increase later on.\nIn 1924 he moved to Spokane, Washington, where he lived in room 1129 of the Davenport Hotel until 1929. On May 19, 1925, at age 45, he married 23-year-old Elizabeth Connor. The new pressure to support his considerably younger wife escalated as she bore him daughter Susan Doniphan Lindsay in May 1926 and son Nicholas Cave Lindsay in September 1927.\nDesperate for money, Lindsay undertook an exhausting string of readings throughout the East and Midwest from October 1928 through March 1929. During this time, Poetry magazine awarded him a lifetime achievement award of $500 (equivalent to about $7296 in 2012 dollars). In April 1929, Lindsay and his family moved to the house of his birth in Springfield, Illinois, an expensive undertaking. In that same year, coinciding with the Stock Market Crash of 1929, Lindsay published two more poetry volumes: The Litany of Washington Street and Every Soul A Circus. He gained money by doing odd jobs throughout but in general earned very little during his travels.\nLindsay had a serious love affair with Lucy Bates, a professional modern dancer who lived in New York City. His poem \"How a Little Girl Danced\" was dedicated to her.\nSuicide[edit]\nCrushed by financial worry and in failing health from his six-month road trip, Lindsay sank into depression. On December 5, 1931, he committed suicide by drinking a bottle of Lysol. His last words were: \"They tried to get me; I got them first!\"[7]\nLiterary[edit]\nLindsay, a versatile and prolific writer and poet, helped to \"keep alive the appreciation of poetry as a spoken art\" [8] whose poetry was said to \"abound in meter and rhymes and is no shredded prose\",[9] had a traditional verse structure[10] and was described by a contemporary in 1924 as \"pungent phrases, clinging cadences, dramatic energy, comic thrust, lyric seriousness and tragic intensity\".[11] Lindsay's biographer, Dennis Camp, says that Lindsay's ideas on \"civic beauty and civic tolerance\" were published in 1912 in his broadside \"The Gospel of Beauty\" and that later, in 1915, Lindsay published the first American study of film as an art form, The Art of The Moving Picture. Camp notes that on Lindsay's tombstone is recorded a single word, \"Poet\".[12]\nOther legacy[edit]\nThe Illinois Historic Preservation Agency helps to maintain the Vachel Lindsay House at 603 South Fifth Street in Springfield, the site of Lindsay's birth and death. The agency donated the house to the state, which then closed it for restoration at a cost of $1.5 million. As of October 8, 2014, the site was again open to the public, with guided tours available on Thursday through Sunday from 1 to 5 pm. Lindsay's grave[13] lies in Oak Ridge Cemetery. The bridge crossing the midpoint of Lake Springfield, built in 1934, is named in Lindsay's honor.[14]\nThe Vachel Lindsay Archive resides at the Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library at the University of Virginia. It comprises his personal papers, manuscripts of his works, correspondence, photographs, artworks, printing blocks, books from his personal library, and a comprehensive collection of books by and about Lindsay. The Archives and Special Collections at Amherst College holds a small collection of manuscripts and other items sent by Lindsay to Eugenia Graham.\n\"Abraham Lincoln Walks at Midnight\"\n\"An Indian Summer Day on the Prairie\"\n\"A Rhyme About an Electrical Advertising Sign\"\n\"A Sense of Humor\"\n\"Bryan, Bryan, Bryan, Bryan\"\n\"Drying Their Wings\"\n\"Euclid\"\n\"Factory Windows are Always Broken\"\n\"The Flower-Fed Buffaloes\"\n\"General William Booth Enters Into Heaven\" \u2013 the American composer Charles Ives wrote music to this poem (with minor text alterations) shortly after its publication\n\"In Praise of Johnny Appleseed\"\n\"The Kallyope Yell\" \u2013 see Calliope (music)#Pronunciation for additional information\n\"The Leaden-Eyed\"\n\"Love and Law\"\n\"The Mouse That Gnawed the Oak Tree Down\"\n\"The North Star Whispers to the Blacksmith's Son\"\n\"On the Garden Wall\"\n\"The Prairie Battlements\"\n\"Prologue to 'Rhymes to be Traded for Bread'\"\n\"The Congo: A Study of the Negro Race\"\n\"The Eagle That is Forgotten\"\n\"The Firemen's Ball\"\n\"The Rose of Midnight\"\n\"This Section is a Christmas Tree\"\n\"To Gloriana\"\n\"What Semiramis Said\"\n\"What the Ghost of the Gambler Said\"\n\"Why I Voted the Socialist Ticket\"\n\"Written for a Musician\"\n^ Solbert, Oscar N.; Newhall, Beaumont; Card, James G., eds.

        "raw_content": "Computational Experiments on Three-Dimensional Molecular Diffusion in Porous Media\nV. J. Alarcon, Mississippi State University\nW. Kingery, Mississippi State University\nEstimations of apparent diffusion coefficients usually consist of curve-fitting the output of one-dimensional models to experimental laboratory-measured data from porous aggregates shaped in different forms. In this research a computational exploration is presented on the alternative use of three-dimensional models for the same purpose. Saturated conditions and absence of retention mechanisms for the solute were assumed. The outputs of the three dimensional models were averaged and compared to the results generated by the one-dimensional formulations. The comparison showed that there are significant discrepancies in the concentration values output by the models. Percent differences ranging from 30 to 90% were calculated. Those different estimations suggest that different values of the apparent diffusion coefficient may be obtained if the three-dimensional solution of the diffusion equation would be used to match experimental results.\nAlarcon, V.

Jeff has eliminated clutter to focus on content, which is strongly unified within the site\u2019s sharp, spacious design. Attentive visitors will revel in the site\u2019s exquisitely restrained details, such as the subtle texture provided by the bleached background grid, or the dynamic interplay between complementary typefaces, Arial and Avenir. Overall, the design\u2019s thematic neutrality and universal approach inspire visitors to relax, focus, and enjoy.\nIn addition to a detailed site review, Jeff Starr did a mini interview with me. I\u2019ve come across Perishable Press several times through my WordPress wanderings and it was great to work with someone I\u2019ve always known but never met.\n#design #web #website\nAn Unspoken Bond\nI met her a few times. She was nice. Quiet. I was one of the more junior students and she would occasionally give me words of encouragement.\nBut what endeared her to me was the way she interacted with him. A comfortable familiarity, an unspoken bond they never overtly displayed in public but kept hidden between them, a secret they shared as if to reveal it was to spoil it.\nSometimes, they\u2019d talk about their kids. They were getting older. Getting married. Moving out.\nWhen they found the cancer in her body, he suspended classes immediately. He told us we could find new teachers with his blessing. I looked up their address and sent a basket filled with p\u00e2t\u00e9 and dipping oils. That was over a year ago.\nThey buried her last Wednesday.\nAnd as much as I\u2019d like to do something, anything to make him feel better \u2014 offer my condolences, tell him he has an ear \u2014 there isn\u2019t anything I can do. Nothing will make up for his loss.\nOur bond will remain unspoken too.\n#death #human interaction\nPortraits of Tiana\nIf you gave me the hypothetical option of photographing anyone I wanted, I\u2019d ask if it could be someone who had already passed away. If so, I\u2019d choose a Byronic hero like Mikhail Lermontov, or another one of the 19th century Russian Romantics, or even Lord Byron himself.\nIf I could choose someone living though, I\u2019d choose Tiana.\nContinue reading \u201cPortraits of Tiana\u201d\u2026\n#beauty #photography #portrait #women\nThis Is Not A Cry For Help\nI have suicidal thoughts every now and then.\nThey don\u2019t necessarily come out during bad times. It\u2019s rather random. And it\u2019s not like these thoughts involve planing how I\u2019m going to do it, I just think of how much simpler things would be if I weren\u2019t living. A line from Being John Malkovich comes to mind:\n[Consciousness] is a terrible curse. I think. I feel. I suffer.\nI think the root of my \u201csuffering\u201d is the anxiety I harbour. Anxiety about social situations, the state of the world, and other trivial details that make life seem complicated. I don\u2019t want to have these thoughts, but I do. Then life gets even more complicated, and I get more anxiety. It\u2019s a vicious circle, until it becomes not about the anxiety itself, but anxiety about having anxiety. I didn\u2019t really identify it until I was in the car with Julie, feeling sick and sicker until I almost asked her to pull over on the highway.\nAll I want to do is stop thinking. Suicide would be such an easy solution, and as much as I disagree with the reasons for suicide in the first place, I honestly believe this is true.\nIt makes me scared that one day I\u2019m going to make a stupid mistake with a permanent consequence.\nI know I have a good life, I know how illogical these thoughts are, but that doesn\u2019t stop them from reoccurring on a monthly basis. I remember having these thoughts as early as high school, although they were much more common back then.\nMore frequently, I have thoughts of mutilation, about once a week. Not self-mutilation, because there\u2019s never anyone specifically doing it to me. It\u2019s just me in blackness, then a floating knife flying into my windpipe, or an axe splitting my head down the middle, or an ice-pick in the back of the neck, or\u2026well, you get the idea.\nI\u2019ve never told anyone about this. Not because I\u2019m ashamed of it, but because I didn\u2019t want anyone to worry. Not even my closest friends know.\nBut harbouring this fear and anxiety, I\u2019m slowly realizing, is difficult. It\u2019s preventing me from enjoying life. I\u2019ve decided to get some help; my first appointment is in three days.\nI\u2019m tired of living with this.\n#psychology #suicide #therapy\nJanuary 22, 2008 Random 19 comments",

        "raw_content": "I love lyrics, words, text and poetry. They have always been the driving force of my composition practice, and I think Lydia's Needle from last week was possibly the first thing I've ever written without any kind of textual component. That makes today's contribution is my second ever instrumental piece (although can I call it instrumental even though I'm singing the melody?).\nFrom yesterday I took the ascending major sixth interval that appears at the beginning of the melody and inverted it so it became a descending major sixth. This formed the backbone of the melody of the first half of the tune, and for the second half I transposed this descending sixth motif twice to develop the melody. Before I knew it I had the entire melody written.\nI had wanted to work on some of the lyrical ideas from yesterday's writing exercises that I didn't use, but there's a certain art to fitting lyrics to a pre-composed melody that takes a lot of time and patience. It's not just a matter of shoe-horning text in, as language has natural stresses and melodic shapes that need to be adhered to, or else the phrasing of the words ends up awkward and strange. This is the reason I almost always start my work with some kind of lyrical idea, so that the melody can shape itself around the language rather than the other way around. I spent a good deal of time trying to fit some text into this one, but the angular melody with its intervallic jumps and syncopation made it a very difficult job. I have kept my drafts, so I might revise it later in this project.\nThe name comes from honeycomb cells, which have six sides. I had originally considered calling it Goose-Fall, with Goose from \"6 geese are laying\" and fall from the descending interval, but decided that name was just a bit too weird.",

        "title": "Cohort Theory",
        "raw_content": "Cohort Theory\nCohort theory applies in discussing weighty issues on generation preferences on the role of leadership. A cohort according to Broadbridge, Maxwell, and Ogden (2007), can be defined as the aggregate of people (within a population) who have same experiences particularly events and these happen within the same period. In numerous researches touching on cohorts, leading researchers define events with the birth. Broadbridge, Maxwell, and Ogden (2007) define a cohort as a term in use mainly referring to diversities in experiences of members in diverse cohorts/generations. Terjesen, Vinnicombe, and Freeman (2007) were clear that upcoming cohorts experience exposure to particular ideas and on the same note replace older ideas in the makeup of the society. However, it is worth noting that generations are eloquent to particular circumstances that they meet in their lives particularly on matters dealing with work relations.\nCordeniz (2007) argued that they are in and revealing uniqueness in history. Therefore, it is outright that if particular periods have diverse effects on different cohorts then the respective cohorts will react differently to some issues (Wong, Gardiner, Lang, & Coulon, 2008). This is the same case when such experiences are applied to the issue of leadership styles and preferences on the same. Additionally, another prominent scholar building a base on this topic is (Wong, Gardiner, Lang, & Coulon, 2008). Their argument is that generations have diverse take and the concept are that people move through time, and generations possess distinctive style concerning the feeling of self worth.\nTerjesen, Vinnicombe, and Freeman (2007) gave explanations of a generation as a group that has its duration similar to the life span of a human being. Each generation holds its beliefs, values, experiences, and emotions or attitudes and these are carried along to the workplace (Asthana, 2008). Therefore, the argument falls in that these values define how the respective individual cohort handles the leadership styles and his or her take on the same. It is the diverse values from distinct cohorts that bring about conflict in the organizational environment (Cordeniz, 2002). Many of the identified ramifications have an impact on the take that people have on diverse leadership styles within the workplace, and this is subject to each generation. Broadbridge, Maxwell, and Ogden (2007) conducted a research, and from their findings, it was revealed that fewer workers are joining the Information technology field. This is with a substantial contention being \"war for talent\": Generation X that is the generation that is made up of young workers, perceives Information technology jobs as unappealing particularly considering the level of labor intense required for the same (Macky, Gardner, & Forsyth, 2008). As a result, they blame poor leadership styles as reducing their motivation, therefore, are said to be causing job dissatisfaction and high rates of turnover in the work environment (Wong, Gardiner, Lang, & Coulon, 2008).\nIn general terms, it becomes quite oblivious for any leaders within an organization to assume Generation X as this would be the biggest mistake in any undertaking bearing in mind that it results to dissatisfaction of the business professionals (Broadbridge, Maxwell,, & Ogden, 2007). The dissatisfaction could be worse and results to high turnover rates of employee. Leiter and Terjesen, Vinnicombe, and Freeman (2007) described Generation Xers are as a generation that has been sidelined in many organizations by the type of leadership styles adopted. The argument in this case is that the generation is inadequately equipped with leadership skills or even the relevant knowledge required in any situation to assume responsibilities (Wong, Gardiner, Lang, & Coulon, 2008). This increases the level of dissatisfaction in the specific cohort as they feel like being under represented. This brings down their morale of work and the employees feel like quitting.\nSelf-Discrepancy Theory\nThe Leadership Positions",

A previous restructuring plan covering the three years to March 2000 was swamped by a rise in the value of the yen against the dollar and the euro, as well as an extended slump in the domestic Japanese car and truck markets.\nThe foundation of the new plan, called 'Heart Beat 21,' is a focus on three key markets: Japan;\nAsia and the Association of South East Asian Nations; and North America.\nNotably absent from that list is Europe. Indeed, Mitsubishi President Katsuhiko Kawasoe said the carmaker will freeze investment in Europe at current levels in order to focus on North America.\nThat calls into question the future of NedCar, the joint venture in the Netherlands between Mitsubishi and Ford Motor Co.'s Volvo Car unit.\nFord has insisted that any new Volvos built at NedCar be built on a Ford platform, which would require additional investment to allow multiple platforms to be built on the same lines.\nMitsubishi aims to cut its debt to around 1 trillion yen, or about $9.5 billion at current exchange rates, by March 2004, from $16.7 billion at the end of September 1999. The previous target had been to cut debt to $14.3 billion by March 2001.\nThe company now aims for a group pretax profit of $190.5 million in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2001, and $1.4 billion in the fiscal year ending in March 2004.",

As a Kung Fu Monk, we had to train 6 hours a day, to start the day from 4:30am in the morning to end at 10:00pm at night, and adhere to very rigid temple\u2019s schedule routine every day and every year. But we would study and train hard to be thankful for everyday life spent in the temple and everything we learned from the masters.\nFrom our Kung Fu training, we have learned to cultivate morality, develop compassion, be liberated from suffering to happiness, understand the balance of Yin and Yang, the Qi of internal and external, the combination of spirit and power, also to control our desires in this secular and very material world. The highest Kung Fu skills are achieved by practicing one movement a thousand times and in doing so, becoming a good, simple, useful, honest, and true person.\nAs human beings, when life ends, we really have nothing remaining. You may have owned a thousand homes, but you can only sleep in one bed, your wealth may contain ten thousand treasures, but you can only eat three meals a day. When we are born, we arrive with no possessions, and when we die, we can\u2019t bring anything with us, the world is a chaotic spiral. In the end, nothing is settled or resolved.

        "raw_content": "Hello, Baby. Goodbye, Friend?\nWhen people have children, it can be tough to stay connected to those who don\u2019t. With effort and patience, though, relationships can survive the transition.\nWhen Kirsten Olson\u2019s dear friend, Brenda, had her first child, things changed between them. They lost touch.\n\u201cShe suddenly had other worlds,\u201d says Olson, now 48 and living in Burnsville, Minn. \u201cWhen she had kids, she met new friends.\u201d\nThe loss wasn\u2019t easy for Olson, but it didn\u2019t surprise her. Most adults experience a similar break at some point \u2014 and it stings for both sides.\nAdults without children generally understand that their friends\u2019 transition to parenthood is epic, says Laura Scott, founder of the Childless by Choice Project and author of the book Two Is Enough: A Couple\u2019s Guide to Living Childless by Choice. Yet she says that understanding \u201cdoesn\u2019t mean it doesn\u2019t hurt to lose your best friend.\u201d\nNew parents, meanwhile, are often overwhelmed by the fact that their lives have changed so much they feel unrecognizable. John and Stevie Kinnear of Sandy, Utah, had their first child in 2010, and John, 32, says that first year was like going into hibernation.\n\u201cIt was all consuming and it became everything we were for a year,\u201d says Kinnear, author of a blog called Ask Your Dad. \u201cEverything I did I saw through the lens of being a parent. If I did get out to see my friends, I just talked about my kid or being tired from my kid. It\u2019s not that it wasn\u2019t a valid topic, but it was such a sudden change. I think a lot of my friends had trouble adapting to it \u2014 and I think I was kind of oblivious.\u201d\nStories like these are common. Friends retreat into different camps when one has children and the other doesn\u2019t. There are ways to protect friendships during and beyond this transition, though. Understanding each other a little better is a good place to start.\nParenthood is a serious undertaking, and it\u2019s not unusual for new (and not-so-new) parents to presume their friends remain childless because of career ambitions or other apparently selfish reasons. Such judgments make closeness difficult.\nAccording to Scott, there are a variety of reasons people don\u2019t have children. Many childless adults endure fertility struggles and miscarriages in private. Some can\u2019t afford adoption or don\u2019t feel it\u2019s right for them.\nConversely, parents sometimes take a pitying view of adults without children, assuming they wanted kids, when they simply didn\u2019t.\nTypically, this isn\u2019t because childless adults don\u2019t like kids \u2014 another common misconception. Scott surveyed hundreds of nonparent adults and found that a majority of them truly enjoy children.\n\u201cI was amazed by how many child-free people had chosen to be teachers. I found child advocates, day-care workers, and people who are mentors for children and youth \u2014 myself included,\u201d says Scott.\nAnd many nonparent adults take their roles as aunts and uncles (whether biological or appointed) seriously. \u201cA number of them have told me that they use their disposable income to help with college costs or other things that parents may not be able to afford for their children,\u201d she says.\nBy the time Kinnear and his wife had a second child, they had learned more about protecting their friendships. \u201cOur friends without kids love our kids, too, and we try to involve them,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd we want to be sensitive to the fact that their lives don\u2019t revolve around kids.\u201d\nSo they\u2019ve changed some things \u2014 for example, the way they throw parties. To balance kid-focused birthday celebrations for toddlers, the couple hosts the occasional barbecue for parent and nonparent buddies. They also want quality time with adults outside the house, so they go on what they call \u201cexpeditions.\u201d\n\u201cYou have to go out into the world and see people. If we just waited for special events, we\u2019d only see our friends once a year,\u201d Kinnear says.\nSometimes maintaining connection is as simple as finding a new routine. Olson has been close to her friend Ann since high school. When Ann had two kids in her early 20s, she and Olson had fewer nights out, but they regularly went to each other\u2019s houses and out for lunch.\n\u201cWe called each other a lot. We talked often,\u201d says Olson. She also babysat, changed diapers, and took Ann\u2019s kids to playgroups and on walks. That was helpful, not only to her friend, but also to Olson herself.\n\u201cHaving kids in my life is such a good feeling,\u201d she says. \u201cIt lifts my spirits.\u201d\nAs for staying connected with Ann, it\u2019s not that complicated. \u201cWe make the effort,\u201d she says. \u201cThat\u2019s the bottom line. Both people have to make an effort.\u201d\nFor her part, Scott says she lost touch with both of her best friends \u2014 one from high school, the other from college \u2014 when they started families.\n\u201cThey went off the radar as they were raising their children,\u201d she says. Still, she was able to reconnect with both of them later on.\nFriendships change when someone has kids, but that doesn\u2019t mean the relationship is over. Even if you can\u2019t still go out to late-night shows or take early-morning runs, there are ways you can stay in touch. Catch up on the phone more often. Send email updates. Have a monthly breakfast. Maintaining some contact will make it easier to reconnect when kids get older and schedules loosen up. And that will happen faster than you think.\nToday, Scott is making new friends in her Tampa community as neighbors become empty nesters. She finds that people want to rejoin the no-kids-in-the-house tribe after their kids head off to college.\n\u201cThat\u2019s been a nice thing to see as I get into my early 50s,\u201d says Scott. \u201cI have a lot of friends who are parents, but they are empty nesters now. They\u2019re ready to get back into it.\u201d\nA few strategies to stay close to your friends when one of you has kids.\nGo out. Parents: Plan a child-free evening each month. Hire a babysitter, or trade off staying in so your spouse can go out. Friends: Offer to babysit. You\u2019ll support your parent friends, and get to know their kids independently.\nBe curious. Know and remember the details of each other\u2019s lives. Ask questions and stay current on what\u2019s important for your friend. Make the effort not to talk exclusively about any one topic, tempting as it may be. The friend who talks only about her kids is as tiresome as the one who talks only about her job.\nAvoid comparing stress. No one likes to listen to complaints for an entire conversation. While you both surely have legitimate gripes, and parents who are with children all day might feel especially stifled, try to avoid using time together purely as a grousing session. You\u2019ll get as much relief \u2014 and more connection \u2014 by focusing on things that interest you both.\nKaren Olson is a writer, editor, and publishing consultant who lives in Minneapolis.\nIllustration by Jerome Studer\n2 comments on \u201cHello, Baby. Goodbye, Friend?\u201d\nAnn Davidman on February 22nd, 2014 - 4:56pm\nThis is a really great article and points out one reason why some women don\u2019t want to decide whether or not to become a mother. Their deep desire may be to live a child-free life but are afraid that if they make that choice, they will lose friends over it. As a result they don\u2019t decide and let time decide for them. It\u2019s never too late to slow down and find out what your true desire is so that you can make a thoughtful decision. I work with women who are stuck in an indecision loop for a variety of reasons.

The sensors transmit information to the sink. The routing protocols for WSN are based mostly on efficiency of energy and some deal with real-time requirements. In this paper, a fuzzy logic system is incorporated to improve the quality of the service of the network. The number of packets transmitted successfully, energy and number of hops from sink are taken into consideration by the fuzzy logic system to improve the throughput of the network.

        "raw_content": "aka Starflight: The Plane That Couldn\u2019t Land\nFeaturing Lee Majors, Hal Linden, Lauren Hutton\nWhat it is: Cross between MAROONED and the AIRPORT movies\nA new experimental plane which uses rockets to bring it the highest levels of the stratosphere is launched on its first flight. When it is forced to fly above debris from an aborted rocket, a malfunction causes the plane to use all of its fuel and ends up leaving the earth\u2019s atmosphere. It is stranded in space without fuel, short of oxygen, in need of repair, and unable to reenter the earth\u2019s atmosphere without blowing up. Can they be saved?\nIf I didn\u2019t know better, I\u2019d say this was a two-hour commercial for the space shuttle Columbia; it\u2019s used so many times in the rescue effort that it pretty much becomes the hero of the story. It\u2019s also the movie\u2019s greatest failing; the movie uses it so often, always with a relaunch from Earth, that it loses all credibility after a while. There are some nice moments here; I like some of the acting and certain details stand out; for example, I like the touch that the passengers who pass through the space tunnel between the plane and the shuttle do so in their stocking feet so as not to damage the tunnel. But it\u2019s also slow-moving, mired by disaster-movie style cliches, implausible, and has plenty of dead spots. My favorite performance is from Pat Corley, who plays an electrician terrified of flying who is recruited to do some last minute repairs. It\u2019s not awful, but it is more than a little dull.",

ATM switches and Ethernet systems to create a combined metropolitan-area network and wide-area network that will link some 5,000 users and connect more than 300 government buildings.\nThe decision to build the $2 million fault-tolerant network that will share voice, data and video was driven by applications that will demand greater bandwidth, according to Denver officials. Among applications in process are a PeopleSoft Inc. financial and human resource package, a new video telemedicine application for inmates at the Denver County Jail and a plan to use network-driven video cameras to route rush-hour traffic.\nThe new network is more than 100 times faster than the previous network, according to 3Com executives. \"Denver has a history as a pioneer,\" said Alonzo Matthews, manager of Denver's Department of General Services, \"and we want to continue that tradition by applying leading-edge technology to run the most effective and efficient government we can for our citizens and business community.

        "raw_content": "Last year I began to think about a subject that might be that might be of interested to present at CaterSource. There were three things I considered as topics came to mind. I knew I didn\u2019t want to talk about anything that was catering specific. We have plenty of experts at Food for Thought and I would leave that up to them. I wanted to present with someone else as I thought it would make for a more compelling presentation. The last thing I knew was that I wanted to talk about something that people could possibly use outside of their work life. That\u2019s when I thought about visioning and Zingerman\u2019s.\nI\u2019ve been a big fan of Zingerman\u2019s for over 20 years. I had the good fortune of first meeting their managing partners Paul and Ari when interviewing for a role on their catering team. As a graduate of Michigan State University the thought of working in Ann Arbor in the heart of the University of Michigan was a bit unnerving. While I\u2019ve yet to have a sandwich that rivals their in-house porchetta dusted with fennel pollen on a home-made onion roll the timing was not right to make a move and that sandwich wasn\u2019t a big enough draw to get me out of Chicago.\nOver the years (and many sandwiches) I stayed in touch with Ari, spent too much money on mail-order and invested in our staff by sending them to Zingerman\u2019s customer service trainings. Then three years ago our senior leadership team visited my friend Ann Lofgren and her team for the two day visioning seminar in Ann Arbor. While I had been and remained a big fan of all things Zingerman\u2019s this visioning thing seemed a little too crunchy and meditative even for me.\nOur session was comprised of about 40 people assembled from all over the world and all walks of life. Perth, London, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Alabama were all represented. Accounting firms, restaurants, management consultants, hospitals, groomers, artisan textile producers, you name it they were in attendance. There could not have been a more eclectic, diverse or interesting group of people assembled in one room for two days other then maybe on a jury.\nThe key difference between this group and a jury though, was that very quickly there was complete consensus. No one abstained. There was a universal agreement that visioning could provide a powerful tool to make meaningful, lasting change.\nGiving yourself the opportunity and permission to think big, be creative, be vulnerable and not get mired in the details of a plan can provide the potential to achieve things you never thought were possible. Through engaging the wisdom of others, what may start out as something that is yours can be transformed to something much bigger and more rewarding for you and those around you.\nChange is hard, change is essential. People hate to be told that there is going to be a change. Yet the better we adapt to change or better yet, can become a disrupter and institute change the better our chance of success.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 I Prayed That She Was Alive\nIs Running A Selfish Sport? \u2192\nThe Same Sun that Hardens Clay also Softens Wax\n\u201dWe all have gifts. They differ in keeping with the grace that God has given each of us. Do you have the gift of prophecy? Then use it in keeping with the faith you have.\u201d Romans 12:6\nWhy is it that those who are most passionate about an aspect of their life can sometimes turn people away from that same experience, rather than to help encourage them towards it?\nIt is wonderful when someone\u2019s actions or recommendations motivate others to start working out or learn a new skill, but unfortunately this is not always the case. All of us are likely to have seen this at work, the gym, and unfortunately even in church.\nBefore I embraced a running a few years ago, I would hear about those who followed a specific training regimen or only ate certain foods with impressive results. The rigid discipline sounded grueling and their performance unachievable to me. The result was that I would go out and train hard for a couple of days before throwing in the towel after soreness, poor results, or because I lacked the discipline early on. The idea of running a 5k as fast as friends would run was unimaginable to me and the marathon distance was too much to fathom. However, the marathon was the first race I finally signed up for as part of my \u201cbucket list\u201d. While some might question this approach, and while I would not recommend it, it was the best thing for me. I am convinced that if I started running 5K\u2019s first, I would have not only avoided longer distances, but may have stopped running all together. Personally I find running a fast 5k more painful and less rewarding than finishing a 50miler.\nWe must acknowledge that what worked for you may not for someone else and should encourage others to find out what works best for them. Experience is valuable and may serve as a guide, but we should all be careful not to imply it is the only way!\nI\u2019ve experienced the same phenomenon when it comes to religion. Some of my family became very religious at various points in their lives and wanted to save the world. Their \u201cfire and brimstone\u201d approach made me run the other way. I appreciated their interest in my soul but their approach was wrong. We must all remember to be respectful of others and acknowledge that one may arrive at the same destination via a different road. No one knows what\u2019s in another\u2019s heart and we should not be so quick to judge. The truth is that we all come to believe or strengthen our faith through different means. Running, Christian music, and a few wonderful individuals who set an example, rather than preached, have been what has had the greatest spiritual impact on me over the last several years.\nPersonally I believe one of the greatest compliments I receive is when someone tells me I\u2019ve helped or motivated them. As a result, I am so grateful and have made great efforts to let those who have played a role in my life know how much I appreciate what they did for me. I would encourage all of you to thank those who have helped you and encourage others who may benefit from your knowledge.\nIt you have a talent, hobby, or love which you want others to experience, remember that the same sun that hardens clay also softens wax. Which one will you be?\nThis entry was posted in Challenging, Doing our best, Romans and tagged Christianity, Experience, Faith, fitness, God, Marathon, running. Bookmark the permalink.\n6 Responses to The Same Sun that Hardens Clay also Softens Wax\nBeautifully said Nick.\nVery, very wise, Nick. I think of it in terms of inspiring people. Everyone wants to be inspired, but it usually doesn\u2019t come in the form of being pushed around. It comes at the right place and time, from observing or being influenced by people, when the moment is right. And when it comes to spiritual life, you said it best \u2014 we are each on our own journey.\nJim, its amazing how both your post and comments are so wonderful and insightful. Being at the right place and time are so important but ultimately we must be open and aware to capture the learning.\nmorningstoryanddilbert says:\nGreat Post!!!! Set examples, offer encouragement, and support for the smallest achievements seem to, in my opinion, foster stronger results. Take Care and God Bless \ud83d\ude42 Kenny T\nThank Kenny!",

Iranian Defence Minister Ahmad Vahidi said the missile was entirely designed and built domestically and powered by liquid fuel. AFP PHOTO/VAHID REZA ALAEI (Photo credit should read VAHID REZA ALAEI/AFP/Getty Images)\nEuropean governments are launching a concerted appeal to persuade President-elect Donald Trump to not abandon the Iran nuclear deal or NATO\u2019s tough stance toward Russia, warning of dire consequences that could raise the risk of war and weaken the transatlantic alliance. In a closed-door meeting this week, Foreign Policy has learned, diplomats from Europe, Canada, and other allied nations raised their concerns about the course of Trump\u2019s foreign-policy priorities with a key member of the president-elect\u2019s transition team.\nThe European delegates told Trump advisor James Carafano that they hoped the new administration would continue to embrace shared values, including upholding human rights and a shared defense policy with NATO at its core. During the private meeting Monday, the Europeans also asked Carafano about the new administration\u2019s approach to the Iran nuclear deal, according to an official with knowledge of details of the exchange and who summarized it for FP. Foreign delegates emerged from the meeting with no idea of Trump\u2019s plans for Iran, the official said.\nEastern European diplomats who were at the meeting sought to drive home the importance of ensuring that any U.S. rapprochement with Russia did not come at the expense of NATO\u2019s most vulnerable members, particularly small Baltic countries living in the shadow of a newly assertive Russia. They said they expected Washington to uphold U.S. pledges made at NATO summits in Warsaw and Wales, reaffirming commitments to defend Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland in the face of mounting Russian aggression.\nCarafano, the vice president for foreign and defense policy studies at the conservative Heritage Foundation, had invited senior diplomats to a meeting at the think tank\u2019s Washington headquarters to hear out concerns about the incoming administration. Carafano insisted he was not hosting the event on behalf of the president-elect. But diplomats and congressional staffers said they understand he is likely to emerge as the Trump team\u2019s liaison for State Department matters. A spokesman at the Heritage Foundation said Carafano was away this week and couldn\u2019t be reached. Politico first reported Carafano was associated with the Trump transition.\nAlarmed at Trump\u2019s comments as a candidate, in which he vowed to ditch or \u201crenegotiate\u201d the Iran nuclear agreement and praised Russian President Vladimir Putin, Western diplomats fear that if Trump makes good on his campaign rhetoric, he will trigger a dramatic rift in America\u2019s relations with European allies not seen since the run-up to the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq.\nU.S. lawmakers say the Trump team has yet to explain its plans on the Iran nuclear accord, but Republicans expect the new administration to take a much tougher line toward Tehran. The 2015 deal imposed limits on the country\u2019s nuclear program, designed to prevent it from building atomic weapons, in return for the lifting of damaging economic sanctions. It was negotiated for years between Iran and world powers. But members of Trump\u2019s transition team, and the hawkish figures under consideration for possible senior positions in his administration, all share a critical view of the Iran deal and have spoken out in favor of imposing fresh economic sanctions on Tehran.\nAlthough Trump has broken with GOP orthodoxy on foreign policy in some areas, he is firmly in line with the Republican Party establishment when it comes to the Iran deal. The issue is likely to be a top priority for the new president and Republican-controlled Congress.\n\u201cThis is one of the few foreign-policy issues that will unite the disparate elements of the Republican Party,\u201d said Mark Dubowitz, who has advised lawmakers and two successive administrations on sanctions against Tehran.\n\u201cOn the Iran issue, I think there is wall-to-wall support for a different approach to Iran,\u201d said Dubowitz, the executive director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. The nuclear deal \u201cas we know it, is fundamentally going to change, and Iran policy as we know it is going to change.\u201d\nAlthough Trump\u2019s team has yet to announce who will take key national security posts, much less articulate the president-elect\u2019s approach to Iran, European leaders are lining up to try to persuade Trump to honor the nuclear deal.\nEuropeans see Trump\u2019s criticism of the Iran agreement as part of a broader, and troubling, tendency to favor dismantling the key pillars of an international order based on the rule of law and human rights. As another example, they cite Trump\u2019s rejection of a landmark climate change pact, which was struck this year in Paris and which came into force just two weeks ago, days before his surprise election victory.\nSpeaking Tuesday at a climate conference in Marrakesh, Morocco, French President Fran\u00e7ois Hollande urged Trump to back the so-called Paris Agreement, which he characterized as \u201cirreversible.\u201d\n\u201cThe United States \u2014 the most powerful economy in the world, the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases \u2014 must respect the commitments that were made,\u201d Hollande said, according to The Associated Press. \u201cIt\u2019s not simply their duty; it\u2019s in their interest.\u201d\nOne U.N. Security Council diplomat, speaking to FP on condition of anonymity, called the Iran deal, the climate agreement, and sustainable development plans \u201cprobably the biggest, most often quoted successes for multilateralism over the past year or so.\u201d Yet all \u201care precisely the things the incoming administration has used as examples of things that need to change.\u201d\n\u201cThe result of the U.S. election has not changed our view of any of those successes,\u201d the diplomat said. \u201cWe continue to think that the Iran deal is the single biggest and best thing that has happened recently in preventing Iran from ever acquiring nuclear weapons.\u201d\nEuropean officials are also expressing growing alarm at Trump\u2019s public expressions of admiration for Putin, whose forces launched a massive new round of airstrikes this week on eastern Aleppo, in Syria, hours after a reportedly congenial phone conversation with Trump. Russia, and the rise of nationalism, poses a \u201cstrategic threat\u201d to the international order, and \u201cthe international community needs to counter that,\u201d the Security Council diplomat said.\nIn the coming days, Britain, Germany, and other European governments intend to press Trump\u2019s team to preserve the Iran deal, to reaffirm its support for NATO, and to challenge Russia\u2019s aggressive policies from Syria to Ukraine.\n\u201cWe will make clear\u201d to the new U.S. leadership that \u201cwe need to be sticking with the international system \u2026 and that does not mean suddenly changing our policy and tacking in behind Russian policy,\u201d the council diplomat said.\nAddressing concern about the fate of the Iran nuclear deal, a German Foreign Ministry spokesman told reporters in Berlin on Wednesday: \u201cYou can be sure that we will try to convince this [Trump] administration that what we agreed one and a half years ago and have since implemented, both in words and deeds, remains, from our point of view, the right policy.\u201d\nThe European Union\u2019s foreign-policy chief, Federica Mogherini, indicated the United States cannot simply dismiss the Iran pact. \u201cLet me tell you very clearly that this is not a bilateral agreement. It is a multilateral agreement, endorsed by the U.N. Security Council resolution,\u201d she said Sunday. \u201cSo it is in our European interest, but also in the U.N. interest and duty, to guarantee that the agreement is implemented in full.\u201d\nBut former U.S. officials and sanctions experts say the incoming president has an array of options at his disposal to either kill the deal outright with the stroke of a pen or gradually undermine it by a thousand cuts.\nThe easiest way for Trump to scrap the deal would be to simply revoke waivers on nuclear-related sanctions under the executive branch\u2019s authority, said Richard Nephew, who helped oversee sanctions policy at the State Department until he stepped down last year.\nOr the president could impose a spate of new sanctions on Iran for activity unrelated to its nuclear program, such as violations of human rights, support for terrorism, or ballistic missile launches. Any one could squeeze Iran\u2019s economy once again. The Treasury Department under a Trump presidency also could decide to issue new, stricter guidance to foreign banks, discouraging them from handling transactions involving Iranian firms.\nThe most radical option would be for the United States to declare that it believes Iran has failed to comply with its obligations under the 2015 agreement by citing various alleged technical violations. That would trigger sanctions to \u201csnap back\u201d under the terms of the deal.\nThere are \u201csix ways to Sunday\u201d to scuttle the nuclear deal, but the United States would have to pay an \u201cexceedingly high cost\u201d in doing so, said Daryl Kimball, the executive director for the Washington-based Arms Control Association.\n\u201cThere is a very high risk it would open the door for Iran to reconstitute its uranium enrichment activities,\u201d Kimball said. And the U.S. \u201cwould not have the backing of our European allies or other partners.\u2026 They will be in for a rude awakening.\u201d\nWestern diplomats and other supporters of the agreement, which was the product of years of difficult negotiations, fear a precipitous U.S. move to scrap the nuclear deal will risk a damaging rupture with Europe that will spill over into other issues and poison the atmosphere at the start of a new administration. They also worry the collapse of the agreement would undercut more moderate elements of the regime in Tehran and prompt Iran to resume its quest for nuclear weapons. In turn, that could trigger tensions and potentially lead to U.S. or Israeli military action.\n\u201cI think it would be a very dangerous development if the Iran deal failed\u201d due to a U.S. unilateral move, said another Western diplomat, who spoke on condition of anonymity.\nApart from the risk of a new war in the Middle East, billions of dollars are also at stake, and European governments will be angered if a new U.S. administration closes off investment opportunities in the Iranian market. Under the terms of the agreement, Western firms are once again eligible to do business with Tehran. But because many U.S. sanctions remain in place, including prohibitions against doing business in dollars, few firms have been willing to enter the regulatory minefield that comes with dealing with Tehran.\nA few large corporations have started to test the waters. France\u2019s Total has entered into a $6 billion deal to help develop an offshore gas field in the Persian Gulf. Under the terms of the agreement, Total, China National Petroleum Corp., and Iran\u2019s state-owned Petropars will mine the Gulf for gas.\nTwo airline companies also have entered pacts with Tehran. Boeing, the massive U.S. airline manufacturer, has struck a deal to provide Tehran with new passenger planes to help modernize its airline industry. France-based Airbus has also agreed to sell planes to Tehran. The Treasury Department has signed off on both deals that are worth tens of billions of dollars.\nSenate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker has taken a less hawkish stance on the issue. But Corker said Tuesday that the incoming Trump administration\u2019s first priority should be to demand that Iran strictly adhere to the agreement, which he and other Republicans say it has violated. He stopped short, however, of calling for killing off the nuclear deal and cautioned that the United States would need to make its case effectively to European allies.\n\u201cI think that what we have to remember is we have to keep the Europeans and others with us in this process,\u201d Corker told MSNBC. The Tennessee senator has been mentioned as a possible choice for Trump\u2019s secretary of state, though speculation recently has shifted to other possible nominees, including former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.\nRepublicans in Congress are divided on tactics in dealing with Iran. Some favor tearing up the deal, whereas others seek to impose new sanctions while remaining open to negotiate a follow-on agreement to address what they deem as flaws in the existing accord. Trump has criticized the nuclear deal repeatedly and has suggested he would \u201crenegotiate\u201d the accord.\nPresident Barack Obama has portrayed the nuclear agreement as one of his proudest diplomatic achievements. At a Monday press conference, his first since Trump\u2019s upset electoral victory over Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, Obama argued against dismantling a deal he maintained has proved successful so far.\n\u201cTo unravel a deal that\u2019s working and preventing Iran from pursuing a nuclear weapon would be hard to explain \u2014 particularly if the alternative were to have them freed from any obligations and go ahead and pursue a weapon,\u201d Obama said.\nOne tentative idea circulating among right-leaning policy experts would be to ratchet up pressure on Iran while easing off sanctions against Moscow over its intervention in Ukraine \u2014 an exchange to placate Russia and Europe over the nuclear deal. The Ukraine-related sanctions have badly damaged Russia\u2019s economy and hit some sectors in Europe, and some EU governments are anxious to see the restrictions lifted.\n\u201cWhat if you said to German businesses, you either do business with Russia or with Iran, but you don\u2019t get to do business with both?\u201d Dubowitz said.\nRussian officials, who heartily welcomed Trump\u2019s electoral triumph, are offering some cautiously optimistic predictions about what the new president might deliver for Moscow. Speaking Tuesday at an investment forum in New York, former Russian Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin said U.S.-Russia ties had a \u201c50-50\u201d chance of improving under Trump. He also predicted a gradual repeal of economic sanctions against Moscow was likely.\nFP\u2018s Reid Standish and David Francis contributed to this article.\nPhoto credit: VAHID REZA ALAEI/AFP/Getty Images\nTags: Britain, Europe, Exclusive, France, Germany, NATO, Russia",

        "raw_content": "By Guest Mole, June 3, 2003 in No Holds Barred\nGuest BANKYWOOD\nAs sad as Mole's loss is, it seems to be a plea for attention to be posting stuff like that. I come on here to just mess around, not to deal with heavy emotional stuff like that. Of course, if my mother died I'd be completely wrecked, so I can't TRULY critisize him for doing it. But sometimes it is better to mourn amongst friends and family, not strangers who really won't give it the emotional respect/courtasy it truly deserves.\nI think I'm makin an ass out of myself, so I'll stop.\nGuest Cancer Marney\nNo, for once you're not, and I agree with everything you wrote.\nI am just want tank abbott banned for being an ass. Nor do I want attention, because I hate pity. I was just sharing something that was nice, and tank had to be an ass about it.\nBut if you haven't lost someone close like that, you really don't know how it feels. Talking about it with anyone makes you feel better, and sometimes strangers can be the best. If you think about it, shrinks aren't your friends, but complete strangers who know your deepest thoughts. Kind of the same idea here, I guess, with me just getting stuff off my chest to other people.\nRendclaw 0\nRockin' on till the break of dawn..\nAnd lets face it, when we're all not talking wrestling (the main reason this board exists) we're putting out little tiny pieces of ourselves... its like SSD told me awhile back, \"I can say whatever about myself on here because no one knows me\", and she's right.\nWhether or not you think the kid is looking for attention, the old adage holds true here: If you don;t have anything nice to say, don;t say anything at all.\nMarney, I understood what you were trying to say to him, but it was just a little harsh, even though you;re right also: when you post things on here of a personal nature, there are going to be some pricks who will piss on you for it, just for their own amusement and self-aggrandizement.\nIts pathetic, but there it is.\nFirst. I find Tank's words to be reprehensible. I'd want the cock sucker banned too. Unfortunately Dames feels he deserves another chnace. If he slips off to you again, he's gone. But don't let some heartless shithead from Delaware piss you off. More than likely, and this isn't in my case, he's extremely insecure with himself. Anyone to be as blatently calous as to say something of that nature isn't worth mentioning. I'd hope that many of us, even me, are not that desperate to get themselves over on a message board.\nThe thing about your mother is that you don't even talk about it. Its in your sig for EVERYONE to see EVERYTIME you post. Honestly, its a downer. I don't like looking at it. I respect that its your way of paying tribute to her, but this isn't the appropriate forum. Maybe discussing the matter with strangers on AIM is a better option. But a message board with thousands of strangers? You're just ASKING for someone to make a rude remark. There are a lot of assholes in the world with perverse outlooks on life, sadly you had to encounter one today. But I can't say you didn't bring it on a bit.\nIf you notice, I got deleted that from my sig before you said that.\nI don't know how I brought it on, I guess I just under estimate the cruelness of people in this world.\nOkay, whatever the origins of this, and whoever is to blame and to what degree, I'm sick and tired of listening to you snivelling about the \"cruelness of people in this world.\" If you were trying to pay a tribute, it's been obscured, for which you should be grateful because it was silly and vulgar. If you were trying to garner sympathy, what you got from me is fading RAPIDLY every time you whine about one stupid comment from an obscene, insignificant, and irrelevant troll. And if you were trying to get free psychotherapy, it was a bloody ridiculous exercise in futility in the first place.\nShut up. Grow a pair. Move on.\nChrist, this whole fucking thread is downright embarrassing. Even taking into consideration the kind of garbage that typically fills this forum.\nEdited June 3, 2003 by Cancer Marney\nOh go fuck off Marney.\nFor the 6th time, I was just sharing something special to me, and I thought I would share it with other people. THAT IS ALL.\nI don't wish any harm to any of your family members because I'm not mean like that. But if someone close to you passes away, and someone says something rude/mean on the internet or real life, you'll be pissed.\nAnd if you read the opening line of the thread, I said\nNo I am not looking for pity, so please don't anyone say that. tank abbott just said something un called for, and I couldn't even think of words to say back to him.\nI wasn't looking for pity, sympathy, or anything like that. Like I've said a bunch of times, I was just sharing something, that is all. Someone said something mean, so I wanted him banned.\nWow I swear, when I get insulted by someone else, I get insulted for being insulted. It is just like Borne said. Good God, fuck this shit.\nif someone close to you passes away, and someone says something rude/mean on the internet or real life, you'll be pissed.\nNo, I won't, because I have too much pride and self-respect to whore my grief to strangers. In \"real life\" or online.\nSomeone said something mean, so I wanted him banned.\nYou're a squalling little snotnosed crybaby who's up way past his bedtime.\nThere, that was mean, wasn't it? Would you like me banned as well?\nWow I swear, when I get insulted by someone else, I get insulted for being insulted.\nYou're being insulted NOW because you WON'T STOP WHINING. I still think this tank abbott character was in the wrong, but now I want you to shut up about it much, much more than I want him to suffer any repercussions for it.\nRight, keeping your feelings inside is really good for you. I don't give a fuck if I don't have any 'pride' because I like to get my feelings out. In real life or the internet.\nIt is past my bedtime. I wish I was asleep right now, its 5:11, but I can't sleep at all.\nYour egging me on the whole time, you dumbass. What did you say before?\nSorry, but that's just begging for an insensitive comment.\nEverytime you say something back, I'm just going with the flow. I don't care what you say, Mr. Cancer. You can make fun of me all you want, I can take it. I just didn't like what tank abbott said because he said something about my mother and dog, which was cruel in it's own way. You seemed to be getting all riled up over me whinning, when you and others just keep egging me on. Man, you are asking for the insentive comments yourself, so that is why I am whinning back to you. Dumb fuck.\nSigh. You just don't get it.\nI really don't have anything more to say here. Have fun wallowing in your self-pity.\nPS. It isn't \"Mr.\"\nWhat is so wrong with paying homage to my mother on a FUCKING INTERNET MESSAGEBOARD?\nIt serves no purpose, in my honest opinion and like it or not, it DOES make you seem like you want everyone to feel sorry for you. Awww... mole's mom and dog died. I'm sorry, bro. I really am... but paying homage to her on an internet messageboard is stupid. You should pay homage to her with love and respect for her in your mind and find peace with her passing. Paying homage to her here is like blowing up that exact picture and taping it to the back window of your car and having \"I MISS YOU MOM\" at the bottom of it. Doesn't seem too much like a bright idea, does it?\nI don't see anything wrong with putting a picture of it in your car window.\nSo, would it be dumb to get a tattoo respecting her in someway? It is the same idea.\nThe car example isn't necessarily wrong. But it IS advertising your grief to the world when you should mourn for your loved ones in your own heart. These memories, grief and mourning should be private between you and those close to you, those people which knew your mother the best and can best grasp what her impact was. Not a bunch of strangers driving down the highway or posting on a message board.\nAlso, people may not want something as serious as death shoved into their face. In some cases, they don't want to know about anything unless they actually ask and want to know about it.\nAnd the tattoo example is still, in it's intent, private. Asked about only when people WANT to know about it. Again, not shoved in their face.\nAnyway, tank SHOULD be banned. But it won't happen unless he slips up again, as Dames said. There's nothing you can do to change that. I say just give it up and let him eventually hang himself, as others have said.\nAs it is, you can't start a thread and open up like this, and expect everyone to care or respond with kindness. It's not right, but it happens. The best way to deal with it is to let it roll off your back. Honestly, don't let what a mean-spirited stranger says affect you. You play into his hands that way.\nSo, yes, I agree with Flyboy, Marney and Banky. To a certain extent.\nWhile you, Mole, may not have been asking for pity or attention, it DOES seem to others that you are.\nEdited June 3, 2003 by KingOfOldSchool\nGuest Rob Edwards\nBan him, whether Mole set himself up for it or not isn't the issue here, It was just plain disgusting and disrespectful\nIf it was the first time he'd done anything like that then maybe a second chance would be warranted but it's obviously not\nThis is getting disorganized. Will the \"ban tank\" lynchmob please form a line to the left, while those discussing life, death, grief, emotions, insults, and message boards, move to the right...\nShoot this half-finished roadkill of a thread, for its own sake. It'll be cathartic.\nBack on topic, Tank Abott out please. For being a notorious dick.\nGuest Anorak\nWhat are the chances of Tank having his second official TSM Suicide Thread over the tremendous guilt he feels from his behaviour?\nIt seems to me quite possible that his post was inspired by the same bewilderment expressed here as to 'why the hell is he posting that here'? His method was blunt, perverse and arguably unecessary in tone but almost a refreshingly necessary antidote to those horribly unecessary, inappropriate and almost sycophantic 'sympathy' threads. I'd be interested to know whether his insult was inspired by a similar point of view or purely just for the sake of being offensive or controversial. Either way I don't think a banning is justified and the incessant squeal for bannings every single day is growing tiresome. Too many of you come across as hyper-sensitive little girls.\n*moves to the left*\nBAN PLZ!\nban him. he should have been banned after his fake suicide thread months ago.\nand i think it was perfectly okay for Mole to post about his mother here. this is a messageboard it's designed for people to talk about stuff. and I know that if my mother died i'd probably tell some of the people here because I consider some of them friends.\nGuest DrTom\nI think that's the crux of the issue right there.\nMole, all that's being said is that an internet message board populated by ~3000 people you don't know is not the best place to grieve or pay tribute. Things like that are best confined to family and friends. When you deal with the public, you run the risk of dealing with the assholes of the world, and that's a segment you definitely don't want around something like you posted.\nAs people, I think everyone is sorry for your losses. I've lost both a pet and a close family member in the last sixteen months, so I can certainly sympathize and empathize. But this really is not the right forum to mourn or to make a tribute, as noble as your intentions may have been.\nDr. Tom are you really a doctor, and if so, what field? If not, do you at least take a look at the Hippocratic once in a while?\nI am not a medical doctor, not that any of that has any relevance to this thread.\nThe Dames 0\nFor the record, I agree with what Tom just said.\nWhether or not Mole was in the right on posting about his mom's death isn't the case here, in my eyes, but tank abbott's clear disrespect is.\nThe only reason why he's not banned right now, in all honesty, is because of the fact that I jumped the gun a bit and said \"don't do it again\". As odd as this may sound, I still feel a bit guilty for banning Jubuki after saying that I wouldn't and I didn't want to personally feel like I was going against my word again.\nfuck that dames. what's more important, your word or making this a better place to post at?\nWell, you don't have to be a MEDICAL doctor. You could have a Doctorate in Law or some such.\nIf I can't keep my word and I'm in charge, how would this be a good place to post at?\nExactly. Since Dames's word is what determines whether this board is a good place to post, I say him keeping his word is far more important than any one incident.\n\"For the last couple of months, Senator Rumson has suggested that being president of this country was, to a certain extent, about character. And although I have not been willing to engage in his attacks on me, I've been here three years and three days, and I can tell you without hesitation: being President of this country is entirely about character.\"\nmeh. whatever, he'll fuck up anyway but i'm pretty sure he's been warned before.\nGuest Mik at Cornell\nMole, first of all let me say that what tank said was uncalled for and wrong. I'm 21, no longer live at home, but am still at the point that if my mom died I would be an emotional bowl of jello. So I can see where you're coming from.\nBut I really think you need to stop reinventing ways to look like a total loser on this message board. You've just about run the entire gamut so I'm wondering what you're going to come up with next. I think you mean well and I personally have no problem with you but when other people make fun of you, I can see where they are coming from. You leave yourself wide open. Wide open. Just stop the stupidity, that might be hard, but please... or these things will continue to happen. He's a dick, yeah, but look at what whining about it did, it got everyone to turn against you. Next time just let it go.\nGuest My Eyebrow is on fire\nSorry to hear about your mom, mole.",

This came during an interjection by Kuwait\u2019s permanent mission to the UN in Geneva, made by Councellor Najib Al-Bader, during a work-team session of the Universal Periodic Review stemming from the Human Rights Council, tasked with reviewing a report submitted by Israel. Al-Bader said the report was void of any indication at the legal rights of the Palestinian people and overlooked all resolutions of the Human Rights Council and other international agencies.\nHe added that Israelis denied the Palestinians the right to determine their fate despite the fact that this right had been acknowledged by the UN\u2019s Security Council and General Assembly, as well as the International Court of Justice and Israel itself. The Kuwaiti diplomat emphasized that enabling the Palestinians to determine their fate and establish an independent state on territories occupied since 1967 would provide basic guarantees for boosting human rights and consolidating global peace and security. He called for including a recommendation pertaining to this issue in the report.\nMoreover, Al-Bader noted the suffering of Arab prisoners in Israeli jails, whom he said were held under harsh circumstances, while also speaking of the deteriorating health conditions of those hailing from the occupied Syrian Golan Heights held in Israeli prisons. He called for issuing a recommendation in the report over the importance of implementing all resolutions of the Human Rights Council related to the release of Syrian prisoners held in Israeli jails and ending occupation of the Golan Heights. The Universal Period Review (UPR) is a unique process which involves a review of the human rights records of all 192 UN member states once every four years. The UPR is a state-driven process, under the auspices of the Human Rights Council, which provides the opportunity for each state to declare what actions they have taken to improve the human rights situations in their countries and to fulfill their human rights obligations. As one of the main features of the council, the UPR is designed to ensure equal treatment for every country when their human rights situations are assessed.\nMeanwhile, Kuwait deplored late Friday all acts of piracy and armed robberies against the ships off the Somali coast and urged the international community to join forces to eradicate the scourge. Addressing the General Assembly as it met to discuss the \u201cOceans and the Law of the Sea,\u201d Kuwaiti diplomat Mohammed Al-Zo\u2019bi emphasized the importance Kuwait attaches to the subject of oceans and the law of the sea. He said he was concerned at the increase in piracy and armed robberies against ships, specifically the recent hijacking of the Saudi tanker off the coast of Somalia, and stated that such activity threatened trade and maritime navigation, and jeopardized the lives of the crews on board.\nIn that regard, he commended the Security Council for its adoption of resolution 1864 earlier this month, which focused on strengthening global efforts to combat piracy off Somalia\u2019s coast and expanding the mandate of state and regional organizations working with Somali officials towards that goal. He said that protecting the marine environment and its natural resources was also of utmost importance to Kuwait and called for a more integrative approach to expanded research and measures aimed at preserving the biodiversity of oceans and seas from the impact of manmade and natural climate change.\nPosted in CARGO PIRACY, ENVIRONMENT, FOREIGN POLICIES, FOREIGN POLICIES - USA, HUMAN RIGHTS, INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS, ISRAEL, KUWAIT, PALESTINE, THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN STRUGGLE, THE LAST DAYS OF GEORGE WALKER BUSH - 2008/Jan. 2009, USA, WATER | Leave a Comment \u00bb\nKUWAIT READY TO CUT OUTPUT \u2013 Oil minister says his country will not hesitate to slash production if OPEC decides to cut output\nFirst Published 2008-11-17, Last Updated 2008-11-17 08:51:48\nKUWAIT CITY \u2013 Kuwait is prepared to cut its oil output if its partners in the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries decide to slash production, the oil minister said on Sunday.\n\u201cKuwait will not hesitate to support the world oil market and will cut production\u2026 based on an agreement between OPEC members,\u201d Mohammad al-Olaim told the official KUNA news agency.\nHe called for a revision of the oil market to \u201crestore balance between actual need for crude,\u201d and supply, adding that inventories of many countries are full of surplus oil that could lead to a glut in the market.\nKuwait is the fourth largest OPEC producer with a daily output of 2.4 million barrels.\nThe OPEC cartel is scheduled to hold an extraordinary meeting on November 29 in Egypt amid speculation that member nations will agree to cut output in a bid to boost plunging oil prices.\nIran, OPEC\u2019s second largest producer, said it will propose slashing output by between 1.0 million and 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd).\nPrices of crude have collapsed by about two-thirds since striking record peaks above 147 dollars in July on concern that a prolonged global recession could slam the brakes on energy demand.\nOPEC agreed on October 24 to reduce production by 1.5 million bpd from November 1, but prices have continued to slide since then.\nOil prices closed mixed on Friday amid growing signs of economic woes in the United States and Europe, despite the possibility of a new output cut.\nLight sweet crude for December delivery fell 1.20 dollars a barrel to close at 57.04 dollars while Brent North Sea crude for January rose 2.25 dollars a barrel to settle at 54.24 dollars.\nPosted in INTERNATIONAL, KUWAIT | Leave a Comment \u00bb\nINVESTOR LAWSUIT CLOSES KUWAITI BOURSE, GULF MARKETS PUMMELED\nby Sana Abdallah (Middle East Times, with agency dispatches)\nAMMAN \u2013 The global financial crisis continued to pummel the oil-rich Arab Gulf markets this week, prompting an unprecedented and controversial court order that closed down the Kuwaiti bourse after an investor sued government and finance officials for compensation for his heavy losses.\nThe seven markets of the Gulf states closed on Thursday, the last day of the trading week in most of these countries, with a total loss in excess of $100 billion in share values in just one week, to about $650 billion, or 42 percent down from $1.116 trillion last year.\nThe administrative court in Kuwait on Thursday morning ordered the Kuwait Stock Exchange (KSE) to shut down until Nov. 17 in an attempt to curb the hemorrhaging of the market, which has seen a $100 billion loss, or 44 percent, since June 24.\nThe court justified its ruling, the first of its kind in the Gulf, as an intervention on behalf of investors, it said, after the market\u2019s management failed to take measures to boost the declining bourse.\nThe court said it would convene again on Nov. 17 to continue looking into the case, in reference to a lawsuit filed on behalf of an investor seeking compensation for his heavy losses incurred at the Kuwait market. He filed the lawsuit against the prime minister, the commerce minister, who heads the bourse committee, and the director general of the KSE.\nThe bourse abided by the verdict and stopped trading as soon as it received the order, drawing cheers from investors gathered on the trading floor, but warnings from the government and lawmakers that shutting down the market was more detrimental to investors.\nThe unusual verdict came as a relief to panic-stricken traders who have been in recent weeks demanding a halt to trading, demonstrating outside the market and the Kuwaiti parliament, and sought the emir\u2019s intervention.\nThe government has tried, but failed, to deflect the domino effect of the international financial crunch and curb the meltdown at home.\nThe central bank injected billions of dollars into banks last month after the near-collapse of the Gulf Bank, Kuwait\u2019s fourth-largest lender. Parliament passed a bill to guarantee deposits at national and foreign banks. The emirate\u2019s Investment Authority, Kuwait\u2019s sovereign wealth fund with foreign investments of $300 billion, pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into buying stocks.\nThe government is still working out a rescue plan, but Kuwait became the first Gulf state to announce it would set up a fund to buy assets from investment firms.\nSome Kuwaiti financial analysts said while suspending trade in the KSE was unorthodox, there was no other choice at this point when there are desperate sellers and no one wants to buy shares until they drop far enough.\nBut some Kuwaiti politicians saw the court order as setting a bad precedent that further weakens confidence in the stock market.\nAll other Gulf bourses have also taken a strong beating from the international financial fallout, and this week was no exception, owing to panic over the proliferation of the global crisis and ensuing plunge in oil prices.\nAlthough the governments of the world\u2019s other oil-rich nations have announced measures to prop up their respective markets and financial systems, they have not yet found the need for a bailout or to resort to the drastic measure of suspending trade, as in Kuwait.\nThe Dubai Financial Market dropped to its lowest point in more than four years on Thursday, down 4.9 percent in the day\u2019s trading, and 24.7 percent over the week in its worst losses ever. Its share values fell 56 percent in the past three months, and 64.5 percent on the year.\nThe Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange index slumped 16.8 percent over the week, and 45 percent since June.\nThe financial markets in Qatar, Oman and Bahrain also had their share of heavy losses during the week.\nThe largest Arab market, Tadawul in Saudi Arabia, closed its week on Wednesday with a 10 percent drop, with its index down 44 percent since June.\nAnalysts predicted the financial downward spiral in the region will continue as huge losses in the United States, Europe and Asia plunge the world\u2019s economies into recession.\nPosted in CENTRAL BANKS, ECONOMIC CONJUNCTURE, ECONOMY, FINANCIAL CRISIS - USA - 2008/2009, FINANCIAL CRISIS 2008/2009, FINANCIAL MARKETS, INTERNATIONAL, KUWAIT, QATAR, REGULATIONS AND BUSINESS TRANSPARENCY, SAUDI ARABIA, STOCK MARKETS, THE ARABIAN PENINSULA, THE FLOW OF INVESTMENTS | Leave a Comment \u00bb\nSAUDI ARABIA, UAE POUR $10 BLN INTO BANKING SYSTEM\n(Refiles with new headline)\nby Souhail Karam and Daliah Merzaban\nRIYADH/DUBAI, Oct 21 (Reuters) \u2013 Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates poured up to $10 billion into their banking systems to boost liquidity as Gulf Arab policymakers prepared on Tuesday to discuss a joint response to the global crisis.\nThe Saudi central bank made deposits worth up to $3 billion with banks struggling to cope with the turmoil while the UAE Ministry of Finance funnelled 25 billion dirhams ($6.8 billion) into the system as part of a 70-billion-dirham rescue facility.\nStates across the world\u2019s biggest oil-exporting region are trying to cope with the worst global financial crisis since the Great Depression, which threatens to put the brakes on a regional economic boom.\n\u201cThe main challenge for Gulf states is to shore up confidence in the banking system and get the credit cycle going again,\u201d said Mushtaq Khan, regional economist at Citigroup Global Markets.\n\u201cThey can\u2019t have diverging money-market conditions. Each country is most likely going to make decisions based on demands of their separate markets.\u201d\nIn the past month, Gulf central banks and governments formulated separate responses to the crisis, including guaranteeing bank deposits, easing lending restrictions, setting up emergency funds and pouring money into ailing stock markets.\nThe Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) took the latest step to defrost interbank lending by pouring in between $2 billion and $3 billion in the form of riyal and dollar deposits with banks on Monday, bankers said on Tuesday.\nThe UAE finance ministry said it had transferred 25 billion dirhams into banks based on the size of their loan portfolios.\n\u201cThe Ministry has placed the first portion of the payment to support liquidity at banks,\u201d the ministry said. \u201cThis portion \u2026 is designed to support the capital of national banks.\u201d\nInterbank rates eased on Tuesday after the moves, with the three-month Saudi Interbank Offered Rate falling to 4.6375 percent from 4.65125 percent.\nSaudi Arabia, the UAE and four other members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which is preparing for monetary union, will meet on Oct. 25 to discuss how they can better coordinate policy responses, Gulf sources said on Tuesday.\nThe global turmoil has hit the Gulf region after six years of high oil prices allowed state and private investors to funnel billions of dollars into industry and infrastructure projects.\nBanks are now struggling to finance these projects, leading economists and policymakers to expect project delays and cancellations.\n\u201cIt is normal that we be affected by what is happening in global markets,\u201d UAE Minister of Economy Sultan bin Saeed al-Mansouri said.\n\u201cBut there are elements of confidence and protection that are relevant to the particulars of our economy and its diverse base of income,\u201d he said in remarks reported by the daily Emarat al-Youm.\nThis week\u2019s meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors in Riyadh follows a call from Saudi Arabia\u2019s highest economic body for Gulf states to look at how they can coordinate their policies as Western economies head for a likely recession.\nIt will also happen the day after producer group OPEC holds its own emergency summit on oil prices, which have tumbled since hitting record highs above $147 a barrel.\n\u201cMost Gulf central banks have already started moving in some way or the other. If they sit and discuss it they can come out with formulated ideas,\u201d said EFG-Hermes economist Monica Malik.\nRELIANCE ON OIL\nDespite lower oil prices, Gulf states are poised to continue boosting their budgets to keep their economic diversification plans on track, economists said. The UAE said on Tuesday it was raising state expenditure by 21 percent next year.\nKuwait\u2019s leader, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah, also urged parliament and the government to push through reforms to help move the economy away from a reliance on oil exports.\nDisputes between parliament and government have often paralysed legislative powers in Kuwait, the only Gulf oil producer that does not peg its currency to the dollar.\nKuwait\u2019s central bank \u2014 which cut its benchmark interest rate this month \u2014 said last week it had shifted its priority away from fighting inflation to boosting confidence in its banking sector.\n\u201cThe priority for all Gulf states is going to be to look out for their domestic economies,\u201d Khan said.\n(Writing by Daliah Merzaban; additional reporting by Inal Ersan in Dubai, Ulf Laessing in Kuwait and Saleh al-Shaibany in Muscat; editing by David Stamp)\nPUBLISHED BY \u2018THE GUADIAN\u2019 (UK)\nPosted in CENTRAL BANKS, COMMODITIES MARKET, ECONOMIC CONJUNCTURE, ECONOMY, ENERGY, FINANCIAL CRISIS 2008/2009, FINANCIAL MARKETS, INTERNATIONAL, KUWAIT, PETROL, SAUDI ARABIA, THE ARABIAN PENINSULA | Leave a Comment \u00bb",

We look at what the future might offer https://t.co/2yO9dxsdiF pic.twitter.com/l8XG5RBVsj\n\u2014 New Scientist (@newscientist) 6 July 2017\nThe article argues that decreasing fertility rates are indicative of the world\u2019s population slowly imploding rather than exponentially rising \u2014 a trend that will continue until we reach some form of crisis point. As it stands, half of the world\u2019s countries have fallen below the replacement rate for developed nations (which is, on average, 2 children per woman). If this trend continues on, countries like Germany and Italy will see their populations decrease by half over the next 60 years.\nThis is not the first time Elon Musk has discussed overpopulation: in March he warned that we face a \u201cdemographic implosion,\u201d because in many countries \u201cyou have a very high dependency ratio, where the number of people who are retired is very high relative to the number of people who are net producers.\u201d\nThe Overpopulation Problem\nThe world is facing an overpopulation crisis that is only set to become more severe: the UN has predicted the global population will reach 9.7 billion by 2050. In recent years there have been a number of somewhat apocalyptic predictions and statements made by high profile members of the scientific community: David Attenborough issued a warning in a 2013 Radio Times interview, saying that \u201ceither we limit our population growth, or the natural world will do it for us.\u201d\nPopulation affects every resource imaginable: from our planet\u2019s stores of energy and environment to the financial sector, to the amount of food we need to produce, and issues like geographical overcrowding. As for the issue of limiting population, it\u2019s proven to be a knotty ethical problem. So far, none of the proposed answers to it \u2014 such as introducing a limited child policy, moving to new planets, or introducing a child tax \u2014 have been particularly attractive or easily executable.\nElon Musk Says Details on Tesla 3 Will Be Released This Weekend\nMusk Says the Boring Company\u2019s First Car Elevator Will Be Operating Next Week\nElon Musk\u2019s Boring Machine Just Completed Its First Tunnel Segment",

        "raw_content": "Turkey will pay the price for having a lack of patience\nphoto Eugene Sergeev\nIt was a political decision to down the Su-24, and it reflected more the growing impatience on the part of the Turks at the Russian military actions in Syria rather than an exasperation at the violation of Turkish airspace. The decision also showed Turkish shortsightedness and political immaturity. It was a blow to Russia, one that may lphoto Eugene Sergeevead to far-reaching international consequences. The long-term consequence for Turkey may be the loss of some of her territory to Kurds.\nThe course of events and their background\nIf each single violation of a country\u2019s airspace were to lead to the outbreak of hostilities, we would long have had world war three that would have erupted in the region of the Baltic states where such incidents caused by Russian and NATO pilots are far from being rare. The long accepted practice is that in such cases the pilots of both sides try to make eye contact in order to identify the intruder beyond any doubt. Then the alien craft is escorted out of the country\u2019s airspace.\nThe Russians had violated Turkish airspace on a number of occasions prior to the downing of their jet; and they had been duly warned of the consequences. The warnings had been repeated also on Tuesday before the dramatic event took place. It was all reported by Can Kasapoglu for die Deutsche Welle:\n\u201eIf they come within twelve miles (20 kilometers) of Turkish airspace, Turkey starts to warn them. If they come within five miles (8 kilometers) of Turkish airspace, Turkey prepares its air F-16 patrol jets for interception and keeps issuing warnings. And then if any aircraft coming from Syria violates Turkish airspace, it\u2019s shot down.\u201d\nThis might lend support to the Turkish claim that the approaching aircraft had been warned ten times as the Russians were operating in the vicinity of the southernmost part of Turkish territory cutting into Syria. And here\u2019s the key to understanding the event. A cursory glance at a map and simple arithmetic are enough to make us understand the indignation felt by the Russians.\nThe Turkish territory surrounded on three sides by the area belonging to Syria over which the event took place has a width of 2,5 km. Assuming the Russian aircraft (there were two of them) picked up a speed of 1200 km/h (which is not its maximum velocity), the flight over the said Turkish territory would have taken them 7-8 seconds, not the 17 claimed by the Turks. The identity of the planes could not have been established within so short a spell of time, which was borne out in the official statement according to which the pilots had no idea who they were shooting at1.\nThey either did not have an idea or they did not care to make sure; Russians are known to have been operating over the area occupied by the anti-Assad rebels for a long time. It seems the Turkish pilots knew what the target was, and the order they received was well thought out. Since the time of the flight through Turkish airspace was short, the Turkish F-16 must have been in a hurry launching their missiles. The downing of the jet is then highly likely to have taken place beyond the Turkish border.\nTo make the picture complete, the event must be placed in its wider political setting. In Syria the Russians combated among others Turkmen troops that are opposed to President Bashar al-Assad. The Turkmen army may be up to 10 thousand men strong2, with the Turkish speaking population being the third largest in Syria after Arabs and Kurds. Russians attacking Turkmen are for Turkey what Americans attacking the troops of the Donetsk People\u2019s Republic would be for Russians. That must have exasperated Turkey, and the anger reached its climax when Russia started aiding President Assad, the archenemy of Ankara. President Recep Erdogan and Turkish politicians seem to have had reason enough to make an attempt at thwarting Putin\u2019s plans. Turkey did not like the Russians cutting off the oil supply routes from ISIS and the prospects of having a global alliance against Islamic State. Throwing a monkey wrench into the NATO-Russian coalition in Syria and Iraq may have been among the targets that were taken into consideration in Turkey and the USA.\nConsequences and Putin\u2019s response\n1. The broad coalition between the West and Russia in combating ISIS has become unreal. Russia and France are likely to insist on commencing cooperation and the resultant coordination of the actions; Turkey will voice her objections, being tacitly backed by the USA, which is not eager to fight arm in arm with the Russians because of the divergence of their political interests in the region. It was these two states that were interested in having the Russian Su-24 shot down in order to prevent the anti-terrorist alliance from taking shape and framing Russia up with aggression.\nRussia wants cooperation because it will make further steps possible and finally result in having the sanctions lifted. Russian ambassador to France Alexander Orlov told Europe 1 radio: \u201cThere may be several kinds of coalition. First is coordination, which is a necessity, but we\u2019re willing to take things further, to jointly plan strikes against ISIL. For that purpose, we could create a joint general headquarters together with France, the US and all other countries willing to join the coalition.\u201d The coalition may not include all the countries concerned; still, the cooperation between Russia and France will probably be further developed.\n2. Kurdistan as a separate state. It is highly likely that Russia will respond to the Thursday incident by supporting Kurds. Not officially, though, so as not to further agitate Turkey. Russia may satisfy the Kurds\u2019 requests and transfer arms to the PYD (Democratic Union Party), the Syrian branch of the PKK (the Kurdistan Workers\u2019 Party), operating in northern Syria. A strong Kurd minority will not as objectionable to President Assad as it would be to Turkey, inhabited by some 15 million of them.\nKurdistan as a separate state is all the more possible if it is backed not only by Germany and the USA but also by Russia. International recognition is one of the prerequisites for a statehood.\n3. Less intense economic cooperation between Russia and Turkey, especially in energy economics. The military cooperation between the two countries has already come to a standstill. The talks on the construction of the \u2018Turkish Stream\u2019 have been uneasy: the hostility between the two countries might put an end to the whole project. Turkey cannot take too bold steps against Russia, since Russia supplies 60% of Turkey\u2019s gas demand; and conversely, Gazprom cannot afford the loss of such an important recipient of its exports.\nAlso the Akkuyu project, the construction of a nuclear power plant in southern Turkey by the Russian state-run Rosatom, might not come to fruition. It was not long ago when Turkey announced the acceleration of the works3, now the Russians intend to \u2018reconsider\u2019 the investment4, though this \u2018reconsideration,\u2019 as Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov put it, might be construed to imply a mere threat because giving up on the project would be tantamount to a substantial loss incurred by Rosatom.\n4. The Turkish tourism sector will suffer losses. This process is already under way as Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has stated that Russians cannot feel safe in Turkey5. It is worth bearing in mind that the Mediterranean is a very popular tourist destination with Russians. Some 4,5 million Russians visited Turkey in 2014 alone, leaving there 4 billion dollars6.\n5. Repercussions in Ukraine. The situation in Ukraine is still vulnerable with each day bringing reports of firefights or preparations for an offensive. Turkey may in further retaliation begin to support Crimean Tartars in their attempt to restore Ukrainian dominion over the Crimea.\n6. Repercussions in Russia. Russian propaganda certainly braces itself to explain to the public why two Russian pilots (from the downed plane and the chopper taking part in the rescue action) had to die. A repeat of the Afghanistan scenario is what Russian citizens fear most; this may significantly lower the backing for the intervention in Syria and for President Putin.\n7. Deployment of S400 system. The Russian deployment of the S400 anti-aircraft system covers 70% of the territory Syria and reaches deep into Turkey, Lebanon and Northern Israel. It will be used to protect Russian planes. The deployment of the advanced defense system makes it impossible for the Turks to shoot down another Russian aircraft without evoking an immediate retaliatory response. The deployment also complicates US actions against ISIS from Incirlik Air Base as US planes, entering Syria from Turkey, are now a potential target for the combined Russian-Syrian advanced air defense systems.\n8. The NATO alliance starts to crumble. In 2013 NATO sent Dutch, German and US patriot systems to Turkey as a symbolic statement against a non-existing threat from Syria. In January 2013 the alliance wrote on its website: \u201cThe Alliance\u2019s actions are purely defensive. They show solidarity with an Alliance member with security concerns. These defensive actions aim to contribute to a de-escalation of the crisis along the Alliance\u2019s border7.\u201d The current NATO\u2019s reaction shows the alliance is not willing to support its member state Turkey. It is the first time since the Cold War ended a NATO member has downed a Russian plane. Now NATO allies appeared eager to reduce tensions and stressed the need to minimize the risks in Syrian and Turkish airspace. It is not to be expected the in August retreated Geraman and US Patriot systems will be redeployed soon8.\n1.

        "raw_content": "The City and the Nation\nNov. 17, 2016 Recent votes in the U.S. and U.K. reveal nationalism is evolving into different forms.\nWe take for granted today how remarkable the modern nation is. Countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Russia contain multitudes of different types of individuals, the vast majority of whom are relatively unaffected by foreign policy. Hans Morgenthau pointed out that nationalism drives these disparate individuals to experience the power and policies of their nations as their own, and that aggressive nationalism is often a result of economic or political stress. This is the great paradox of nationalism. It supplanted tribalism, faith and monarchy as the organizing principle of the international order in the 19th and 20th centuries, and it is the glue that binds diverse groups of individuals together into states. But it also means defining who isn\u2019t a part of the nation, which can unbind both society and broader international institutions.\nToday, nationalism in certain urban areas comes from a different source than in suburban and rural areas. The urban-rural split is not a novel discovery, but it has become more pronounced as a result of resurging nationalism. For example, when people in the U.K. voted on whether to remain in the European Union, Wales and England voted to leave. Scotland, Northern Ireland and the City of London voted to remain. The result of the referendum in London is the most striking. Scotland and Northern Ireland have been independent at various points in history, but London has been the capital of what is today England for almost a millennium. Of all Londoners, 60 percent voted to remain in the EU, but the majority of English voters wanted to leave. Some suggested (maybe jokingly) that, just as Scotland and Northern Ireland have done, London should explore whether it can remain within the EU and leave the rest of England behind.\nThe results in the recent U.S. presidential election are even more striking. Donald Trump is often described as a nationalist candidate and in many respects the label fits. His slogan, \u201cMake America Great Again,\u201d to him meant getting rid of those who aren\u2019t American (illegal immigrants) and instituting policies (repealing NAFTA, raising tariffs) that will be best for the American worker and not for the global economy. Americans\u2019 response to Trump\u2019s campaign revealed a distinct urban-rural divide, with New York City being a particularly salient example. Hillary Clinton won the five boroughs of New York City by an 81-19 percent margin. Take the votes of the five boroughs away, and Clinton wouldn\u2019t have even carried New York state. It was not a coincidence that New York City became the epicenter of anti-Trump protests. It was precisely because New Yorkers could not believe they lived in a country where Trump could win a presidential election.\nA supporter of Donald Trump holds up a \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d sign as he addresses supporters during a campaign stop at the International Exposition Center on Oct. 22, 2016 in Cleveland, Ohio. Justin Merriman/Getty Images\nLondon and New York City are interesting case studies in how much cities can differ from the rest of the country. In London, for example, the median average salary for a resident in 2015 was nearly double that of the rest of the U.K. \u2013 48,023 pounds ($59,800) compared to 27,531 pounds. This is in part because of a higher cost of living of course, but consider all the other ways in which London differs from neighboring counties. According to a report by consulting firm McKinsey, London\u2019s GDP grew 27 percent faster than that of the U.K. as a whole. According to the U.K.\u2019s last census in 2011, 37 percent of all London residents were not born in the United Kingdom. For the rest of the U.K., that figure was only 9 percent. London\u2019s population is seven times bigger than any other British city and accounts for almost 15 percent of Britain\u2019s total population.\nIn New York City and the U.S., the divide is just as conspicuous. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the median income in the U.S. in 2014 was $51,939. In Manhattan, a borough of New York City, it was $69,569 and in nearby Westchester county, where the Clintons have a home and which is much more a part of New York City than it is part of the rest of the state, it was $81,946. New York City\u2019s population is also disproportionately large, double the size of any other major U.S. city, and makes up roughly 40 percent of New York state.\nCompared to rural areas of the U.S., New York City is also markedly more diverse. According to New York City\u2019s Department of City Planning, in 2011, 37 percent of all New Yorkers were foreign born. This is in stark contrast to a state like Iowa, which Barack Obama won in 2006 and 2012 but flipped to Trump in 2016. A study published in 2014 by Iowa State University used data from three different time periods from over 99 Iowan towns to put together a composite image of the typical Iowan small town. The population of this fictional town in 2013 was 1,977 people, 92 percent of whom were white.\nThe needs of city dwellers have always differed from those who live in rural areas, just as the interests of people on the coast differ from those of people in the interior. But along with nationalism and the urban-rural divide, there is a rise in connectivity between megacities, where residents increasingly have more in common with each other than with other citizens within their countries. And because of advances in communication and technology, these city dwellers can freely communicate with and travel to visit their urban comrades in other countries more easily than at any other moment in human history. They view the values of their fellow citizens \u2013 based in nationalism tied to the state partly because they are more isolated and more dependent on the state than the city dweller \u2013 as provincial. At times, they prefer the values they share with people who live in cities \u2013 even if they are citizens of a different country.\nAs Londoners joke that they want to remain in the EU even after Brexit and New Yorkers continue their protests outside Trump Tower with chants of \u201cnot my president,\u201d they are expressing a kind of solidarity with each other. This is not to say that London and New York City are about to secede from their respective countries and become independent city-states; the situation is not nearly so dire. But cities are now developing their own form of nationalism around shared urban values, while nationalism based on the nation-state lives on in non-urban areas. The average New Yorker doesn\u2019t see how important and seductive Trump\u2019s promise of restoring America\u2019s greatness is to someone living in the Rust Belt or the rural South, where jobs are leaving, times are hard and on top of it all America seems weaker than ever. The average Londoner doesn\u2019t see how important the U.K.\u2019s sovereignty is to the average British citizen, who might not care about passport-free travel because he can\u2019t afford a holiday in Italy anyways.\nAs a result, those who live in cities begin to feel as disconnected from the body politic as the body politic does from the political and financial elites. And in cities, which are diverse and often home to many immigrants, nationalism is expressed not in full-throated pledges of allegiance to the state, but rather by a reversion to the other national identities they carry within them. They feel less American, but more Jewish, Mexican, black, Dominican or whatever other identities are an important part of their individual lives. They feel less British, but more Scottish, Irish, Ulster or even European, whatever that means to them. Still others see themselves as part of a more global community, united more at times by a particular set of cherished values than by loyalty to their country, and take comfort in knowing that their worldviews are shared by those in other cities. All of these reactions are also forms of nationalism, though many in the cities don\u2019t realize it, as they think of nationalism as that visceral and at times even illiberal reaction that \u201cothers\u201d have. But there\u2019s no way to escape nationalism in uncertain times such as these, and as nationalist sentiments increase, they will continue to bring people together and split them apart.\nBrexit United Kingdom United States",

        "raw_content": "3 Major Landmarks of Belgium\nList of Landmarks in South Dakota\nYou don't have to be a music fan to appreciate Nashville, Tennessee, but it helps. This is, after all, a place officially known as Music City, so it's not surprising that many of the city's top attractions are connected to music in one way or another, especially the country genre. No matter what your tastes are, you will find plenty to do with all that this historic city has to offer.\nThe permanent home of the Grand Ole Opry since 1974, the Opry House is one of Nashville's top attractions not only for the musical shows it stages but also for its tours. When the music stops, visitors can take a tour of the facility and get a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the inner workings of what is billed as \"The Show That Made Country Music Famous.\" Tours include a backstage visit and a chance for a photo op on the famous stage that has given rise to many stars.\nThis church-turned-concert-hall is a National Historic Landmark also referred to as \"the Mother Church of Country Music\" due to its legendary run from 1943 to 1974 as the home of the Grand Ole Opry. Such iconic figures as Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn and Johnny Cash became famous by performing on the Ryman stage. The same church pews and stained glass windows are still there, and guided and self-guided tours are available. You can even record a song in this legendary building, inside the old ticket office that now serves as a small studio.\nHoused in a mammoth building downtown, the Country Music Hall of Fame is a must-see attraction not only for country music music fans but for any music fan. The extensive and well-curated galleries contain exhibits that explore country's gospel, blues, folk and mountain-music roots as well as many artifacts from the superstars of the genre. The soaring, sun-lit rotunda at the end of the museum tour contains the engraved portraits of all the members of the Hall of Fame, with plenty of space left for future inductees.\nLong before it became the capital of country music, Nashville was known as \"the Athens of the South\" due to its many higher education and cultural institutions. Because of this, the city built a full-scale replica of the Parthenon for Tennessee's 1897 Centennial Exposition. Today, Nashville's rendition of this classic structure is the centerpiece of Centennial Park and home to an art museum as well as a colossal statue of the goddess Athena that stands nearly 42 feet high, said to be the largest indoor sculpture in the Western world.\nGrand Ole Opry: Tour the Opry House\nRyman Auditorium: Make a Record at the Ryman\nMetropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee: Parthenon facts - Athena\nMetropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee: The Parthenon\nFrederick Breedon/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images",

        "raw_content": "Emotional Impact of Infertility - Phase Three\nWhen a couple decides to seek medical help for infertility, their lives truly cease to be their own. No longer are they able to plan their days for the things they want to accomplish. Instead the calendar is dominated with appointments, tests and many other associated things to help get the fertility wagon rolling.\nThe Taxing Treatment Phase of Infertility\nBy the time the couple is at the actual treatment phase of the process, they are not only dominated by appointments, they are also riding an emotional roller coaster. The natural spontaneity and fun of life together is a vague memory as mental and physical exhaustion of the demands of fertility treatments takes center stage. The already present resentment and fear give way to an intensifying sense of anger and frustration. Their infertility is controlling their lives, taking so much time, energy and money for treatments - and there's no guarantee of a baby at the end of it all. Women often feel a sense of injustice and indignity from the fertility treatments as well as feeling victimized by the medical profession on the whole.\nCrazy Hormonal Responses and Self-Castigation\nFertility drugs can wreak havoc with already fragile emotions. Powerful hormonal effects of fertility drugs can cause a violent increase in feelings of frustration, vulnerability and sensitivity. Intercourse can even become resented because it ends in failure and if there is no conception, it's a constant reminder of that perceived inadequacy. As costs increase, the financial strain adds yet another source of discord and anxiety provoking an overwhelming need to find out everything possible about treatments, costs, options, success rates and more.\nLife feels as though it has been put on hold since it becomes impossible to make any long or ever short-term plans. Then the self-flagellation begins with thoughts like, \"Maybe we don't deserve a child\" or self-blaming thoughts such as, \"If only we had done this differently, then we would have a baby.\"\nThere are some strategies to help deal with this onslaught of emotion during treatments which may be helpful. In order to maintain some sense of control, keep excellent records of treatments, paper work and prescriptions. This will help when insurance coverage is being sought. Remember that people feel and process emotions differently. Share feelings as openly as possible, but don't push the issues. It is really important to unload emotionally when it feels like another pressure will create an explosion.\nSex Is Fun, Sex Is Fun, Sex Is Fun\nTry to focus on things outside of the treatments and treat the \"baby-making-sex\" as part of the treatment process. Then, make dates to have fun and \"fun-sex\" during the times when mandatory sex is necessary for the treatments. Don't hesitate to get involved in counseling or support group meetings as much can be gained from others' experiences.\nFertility treatments can feel like the ultimate stress. Now, more than ever, it is important to focus on hope and success and to reinforce that neither member of the couple is to blame for the infertility or for any failure to respond to treatment. Even those couples with no apparent problems often require time before they can conceive.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Insights > 29% Of Online Ad Spend In The US Will Be From Mobile By 2018\n29% Of Online Ad Spend In The US Will Be From Mobile By 2018\nMobile ad spending is finally taking off. The Forrester Research Mobile Advertising Forecast, 2013 To 2018 (US) predicts that mobile ad spend (smartphones plus tablets) will represent more than 29% of the total online ad spend in the US by 2018. The forecast looks at mobile device ownership in the US, trends in device usage, and mobile advertising supply-side data to fix the current and future market size for display, search, and social spending.\nThe drivers behind this take-off of mobile ad spending are:\nIncreased device ownership, particularly of tablets. Smartphone installed base growth in 2012 was more than 35%, while tablet installed base growth exceeded 120%. By 2016, tablet sales will overtake the sales of desktop and laptop PCs.\nThe intensity of online tablet use. Despite tablets representing less than 30% of the mobile device market in the US, they represent more than 40% of total mobile page views. In addition, the majority of tablet users watch video on their tablet, compared with about a third of smartphone users.\nDisplay ad real estate. Tablet screen space for display ads is more than double that of smartphones \u2014 for example, the screen size for an iPad is 9.7 inches but just 4 inches for an iPhone. In addition, eCPM rates and ad fill rates on tablets are generally higher than on smartphones.\nAn increase in search volumes and conversion rates. More than 60% of smartphone owners use mobile search; on tablets, this figure exceeds 90%. In addition, tablet cost-per-click (CPC) rates are becoming comparable with those of laptop/desktop PCs.\nSupply-side data also confirms this strong increase in mobile ad revenues: Google has more than a 50% share of the mobile ad market and is forecasting mobile annual revenues for 2012/2013 in excess of $8 billion. In addition, more than 20% of Facebook's revenues worldwide came from mobile in 2012, up from 0% in 2011.\nMobile ad revenues will start to cannibalize desktop and laptop ad revenues. Tablets are cannibalizing both desktop and laptop sales and reducing the amount of time that desktop/laptop users spend on their devices. US consumers are now more connected than ever, making mobile both complementary to and cannibalistic of desktop and laptop ad spend.\nAd spend ROI models need to change. Today, advertisers accept lower levels of ROI for mobile ads compared to ads on desktops and laptops to account for cross-channel buying behaviours; this keeps calculated CPC rates low. Long-term investment in mobile will need an understanding of real conversion rates from display to buy.\nAdvertising mobile real estate will continue to outstrip demand. Mobile ad fill rates remain low. Assuming that mobile advertising real estate will always outstrip demand, future growth in mobile ad revenues will come from increasing mobile conversion rates. The use of local advertising, context-sensitive ads, and geo-fencing ads all have the potential to increase conversion rates in the future.",

        "raw_content": "Home/Entertainment/Top 10 best Mark Twain Quotes\nFamous for the classic American novels, \u201cAdventurer of Huckleberry Finn\u201d and \u201cAdventurer of Tom Sawyer\u201d, Mark Twain can rightly be described as a wily intellectual and an adventurer.Mark Twain was born on 30th November 1835, in Missouri. Mark Twain was his pen name while his real name was Samuel L. Clemens. Apart from writing, Mark Twain was also, a lecturer, river board pilot, journalist, investor, and an entrepreneur.He was born to John and Jane Clemens, as the sixth born. During his early days, Mark Twain worked as lawyer, storekeeper, as a land speculator, and as a judge. Despite all his efforts to create wealth, Mark did not manage, at some point; he could not even afford to feed his family. According to one his early friends, they never saw Mark laugh.Between the age of 4 to 17 years, Sam Clemens and his family lived in Hannibal, a town near Mississippi River. This town was an interesting place to grow, there was a library, there were so many steamboats arriving there, there was also many tanners and blacksmiths, who practiced their craft there. However, this town was known for violence. At the age of 9 years, he witnessed a local man murdering a cattle rancher. Also, when he was 10 years, Sam saw a slave die after he was hit by a piece of iron by a white overseer.After his father passing on, when he was 13, they were faced with challenges. This incident led to Samuel dropping out of school, to work as a printer apprentice. After working for two years, he got a job in his brother\u2019s Orion\u2019s newspaper as an editorial assistant and a printer. It is during his working here that he realized he loved writing.Samuel would later leave Hannibal, for another printing job offer at St. Louis, where he would later become a river pilot apprentice. In 1858, Samuel became a licensed river pilot. In fact, it is here that Samuel would get his new pseudonym \u201cMark Twain\u201d which means, it is safe to navigate.The river trade business was later disrupted by the civil wars, making Clemens shift and started working for several newspapers in the US. Clemens later married Olivia Langdon, whom they had four children. 3 of his children died when they were young. The only Clemens surviving child was Clara, who died at 88 years and had only one daughter. However, her daughter died without a child. Meaning today, Clemens has no known descendant.He died in 1910, having written 28 books and other numerous works. Today, his Hannibal and Calaveras are now open as museums.\n10. best Mark Twain Quotes\n2. \u201cThe common eye sees only the outside of things, and judges by that, but the seeing eye pierces through and reads the heart and the soul, finding there capacities which the outside didn\u2019t indicate or promise, and which the other kind couldn\u2019t detect.\u201d\n3. \u201cGovernment is merely a servant \u2013 merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn\u2019t. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them.\u201d\n4. \u201cAfter a few months\u2019 acquaintance with European \u201ccoffee,\u201d one\u2019s mind weakens, and his faith with it, and he begins to wonder if the rich beverage of home, with its clotted layer of yellow cream on top of it, is not a mere dream after all, and a thing which never existed.\u201d\n5. \u201cPeople who always feel jolly, no matter where they are or what happens to them\u2014who have the organ of hope preposterously developed\u2014who are endowed with an uncongealable sanguine temperament\u2014who never feel concerned about the price of corn\u2014and who cannot, by any possibility, discover any but the bright side of a picture\u2014are very apt to go to extremes, and exaggerate with 40-horse microscopic power.\u201d\n6. \u201cI do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.\u201d\n7. \u201cThe difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.\u201d\n8. \u201cThe gentle reader will never, never know what a consummate ass he can become until he goes abroad. I speak now, of course, in the supposition that the gentle reader has not been abroad, and therefore is not already a consummate ass\u201d\n9. \u201cThe average American may not know who his grandfather was. But the American was, however, one degree better off than the average Frenchman who, as a rule, was in considerable doubt as to who his father was\u201d\n10. \u201cI am quite sure now that often, very often, in matters concerning religion and politics a man\u2019s reasoning powers are not above the monkeys\u201d",

Meanwhile their cousin Martha\u2019s (Donovan) fianc\u00e9 Simon (Tudyk) has inadvertently been given hallucinogens by her brother Troy (Marshall), Martha is pursued by another man (Bremner) and Howard (Nyman) worries about a rash. It\u2019s a funeral that none of them will soon forget.\nWrangling a family gathering has never been so inappropriate \u2026 and entertaining.\nFrom the opening credits, which show a cartoon coffin en route over a map and accompanied by Beetlejuice-esque music, to the end credits that show bloopers accompanied by upbeat music, Death at a Funeral is quite enjoyable.\nThe main cast in Death at a Funeral are all fantastic in their roles. Particular praise to Peter Dinklage, Matthew Macfadyen and Alan Tudyk.\nPeter Dinklage has the remarkable ability to portray so much without needing to use dialogue, it is often transfixing to watch. Though he only features in a handful of scenes, he steals each one.\nMatthew Macfadyen plays the role of family wrangler well and is the perfect straight guy but also often quite ludicrous himself. It\u2019s the perfect mix of how you would imagine someone reacting to the circumstances.\nI can\u2019t think of anything I have seen Alan Tudyk in and didn\u2019t think he did a bang up job. His portrayal of the straight-laced Simon who is accidentally given a homemade concoction of drugs is one of the comedic highlights of the film.\nThe dark humour featured in Death at a Funeral is funny but is also cut with some more sophomoric humour like poop and drug jokes. It makes for an interesting combination of humour. It wouldn\u2019t work for everything but it comes together well in Death at a Funeral.\nDeath at a Funeral is a good British comedy film with a fun cast. If you enjoy British humour then there\u2019s a good chance that Death at a Funeral will be up your alley.\n\u201cJustin, it was one night. It was a massive mistake. I was drunk out of my mind.

        "raw_content": "Info Viewpoints TIME-IS-MONEY\nThe currency of time changed into money\nHow fitting that the phrase 'Time is money' is attributed to Benjamin Franklin, the great critic of wastefulness in any shape or form!\nLong before the 24/7 cycle of the globalised world, he satirised the way people would sleep during the day, squandering free natural light, just to pay for its artificial equivalent at night time.\nHis letter to Journal de Paris, in the 1780s, is probably one of the most quoted texts in the history of Daylight Saving Time .\nIn 'Advice to a Young Tradesman, Written by an Old One', Benjamin Franklin writes about the relationship between time and money with the elegance of a mathematician solving a complicated problem in just a couple of equations.\nWe live under the illusion that by doing very little and spending very little too, we save money. In reality we lose the money that we could have earned through our actions. Savings nil, earnings minus.\nBetter work hard and spend little, something to aim for and hard to achieve. But that advice came from a champion of frugality, after all.\nWhat Franklin does not talk about is the exchange rate between time and money.\nSometimes, in various areas of our life, we have to spend some money if we need or want to save time. Money \u2013 or getting it \u2013 is time-consuming, but time is the stronger currency by the looks of it.\nThe most banal example: going on holiday, we take a high-speed train instead of a slow one; we choose to book a flight instead of travelling by bus, because a shorter and more expensive journey means more enjoyable time spent at the destination.\nThe English language uses the same words to express the loss of time and money, 'spending' and being afraid of 'wasting' them. More often than not, we can't avoid doing either.\nWe still try to fight back, hence the plethora of time-management books, podcasts, online advice.\nHow can all this time-management business be analyzed after all?

For those who don't know, he's an architect and mathematician [2] whose work greatly influenced object-oriented programming (he's best-known for \"A Pattern Language\"), and in this most recent work of his, he addresses the concept of \"wholeness\" head-on -- investigating what can be done to integrate the completely separate worlds of art/spirit and physics, under the belief that they can't stay separated forever... and following in the steps of thinkers like Bohm, Penrose and Mandelbrot. (I.e. he's serious, not some new-age QM crackpot.)\nThe print copy is sadly ridiculously expensive, but whether online or in libraries there are definitely ways to read it if you're determined...\n[1] https://www.amazon.com/Nature-Order-Building-Environmental-S...\n[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Alexander",

Nature photographs through environmental art and installation\nI work in the University of Lapland as a professor of art education and I am also the head of the Arctic University's international Arctic Sustainable Art & Design -network. The relations between the northern, arctic environment, the cultures and art make up the centre of both my academic work and my creative artistic interests.\nFor me, the word forest carries multiple meanings. It does not only imply nature. \"Let's go to the forest\", always referred to the beginning of an activity; bird hunting, berry picking, making firewood, but also to freedom of being invisible from the eye of the village's sosial circle. The relationship with forest was defined through stories, and included a certain humility and respect that derived from the ancient hunting tradition; we asked the forest for pray. In my art I have returned to that devotion of seeking and asking - in the forest something is set to be found and that should be respected. The fragments in my installations derive from my own life at the waters and forests of Lapland, and they are connected to a disappearing tradition - hunting, fishing and food - everyday life that interacts with nature.\nI am a sculptor and art education by profession. I have worked as an art educator at the University of Lapland since 2008.\nMy artistic work overlaps with my everyday nature visits. I have created different installations from the material I have collected from my visits to the forests. I have often created materials as a handiwork by a campfire. Precise observations and experiences during the nature trips are closely entwined, and the trips can be characterized as walking or wandering art that can be placed within environmental art.\nThe point of it is path that has been walked and lived and its representations. I also include other people in some of my projects according to their interests, which makes them communal art projects.\nI am interested in such things as art being tied to a specific place, the memoirs within places and paths, and change of the environment.",

        "raw_content": "Simplified Somatosensory System | Source\nNeuropathic pain is chronic pain that is caused by injury, damage or disease of the somatosensory system. The somatosensory system lets us perceive pain, touch, temperature, pressure, position, movement and vibration. It is comprised of afferent nerves in the skin, muscles, joints, and fascia with specific receptors that sense the different types of stimuli. These nerves send the information to the spinal cord and ultimately to the brain for additional processing. Sensory signals going into the spinal cord and the brain can be altered as a result of injury or disease of the somatosensory system. There are several common conditions associated with neuropathic pain. They include postherpetic neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, painful radiculopathy, diabetic neuropathy, HIV infection, leprosy, amputation, peripheral nerve injury pain and stroke.\nPatients with neuropathic pain experience burning and/or unusual tingling, crawling, or electrical-like sensations. They may also have pain resulting from non-painful stimuli like light touching. Symptoms tend to persist and become chronic. Patients may also become less responsive to pain medications.\nHow Common is Neuropathic Pain?\nIt is estimated that one in three Americans experience chronic pain. About a fifth of patients who have chronic pain are thought to have largely neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain roughly affects 7 to 10% of the general population.\nIt is seen more frequently in women and in people over 50 years of age. It commonly affects the neck, lower back, lower and upper limbs.\nNeuropathic pain is more common in people over 50 | Source\nThere are several screening tools that have been developed to identify neuropathic pain conditions. These are simple to use questionnaires that allow patients to assess the characteristic neuropathic pain symptoms. Symptoms found in these questionnaires are burning, tingling, pain caused by light pressure, sensitivity to touch, electric shock-like pain, pain to cold or heat, and numbness. Examples of questionnaires include DN4, painDETECT.\nIn addition to these subjective screening tools, there are objective tests used to investigate somatosensory pathway function. They include bedside sensory assessment, neurophysiological techniques, and skin biopsy.\nBedside Assessment\nBedside sensory assessment involves examining different sensory stimuli. These are touch, pinprick, pressure, cold, heat, vibration, temporal summation and after sensations. Patients are asked to describe the sensation after the stimulus is applied.\nNeurophysiological Techniques\nLaser-evoked potentials (LEPs) are considered the most reliable neurophysiological test to assess damage along the somatosensory pathways. Laser stimulations selectively activate different pain receptors in the superficial layer of the skin. The responses to these stimulations are recorded from the scalp. They consist of waveforms with different latencies. LEPs and be absent, reduced in amplitude or delayed in latency in patients with damage to the pain signalling pathway.\nSkin biopsy is used to assess epidermal nerves. It is regarded as the most sensitive test for diagnosing small-fibre neuropathies.\nThere are two categories of neuropathic pain: central and peripheral. Central neuropathic pain is caused by damage or disease of the brain and/or spinal cord. Peripheral neuropathic pain involves the small unmyelinated C fibres and the myelinated A fibres (specifically, Abeta and Adelta). Both of which are pain afferents.\nNeuropathic pain may arise from changes in the pain signalling pathway. These changes can occur in the periphery (outside the brain and spinal cord) and/or in the central nervous system (CNS, which includes the brain and spinal cord). There is an apparent gain of excitation and a loss of inhibition. This shifts the sensory pathways to a hyperexcitable state, or a state of enhanced activity. This results from changes in ion channel function and expression, pain transmitting neuronal function and inhibitory interneuronal function.\nIon Channels Changes\nThere is increased expression and function of sodium channels (possibly Nav1.3, Nav1.7, and Nav1.8) as well as calcium channels (alpha2delta) in sensory nerves that lead to enhanced excitability. Simultaneously, there is a loss of potassium channels that normally help to control neural activity.\nAfter nerve damage, transient receptor potential V1 (TRPV1) is reduced on injured nerve fibres but is increased on uninjured afferent fibres. This new expression of TRPV1 channels, plus sensitization to heat due to intracellular signal transduction, might result in spontaneous nerve activity induced by normal body temperature. This may occur if the threshold of TRPV1 is decreased to below 38oC.\nPain Transmitting Neuronal Changes\nEnhanced excitability of spinal neurons enables low-threshold afferent fibres to activate pain transmitting neurons that send sensory information to the brain. It also expands their receptive fields so that a given stimulus excites more pain transmitting neurons, something referred to as \"central sensitization.\" In other words, central sensitization is the increased responsiveness of pain neurons in the CNS to normal or low threshold sensory input. Specifically, continual discharge of peripheral afferent fibres with the release of excitatory amino acids and neuropeptides leads to changes in these pain transmitting neurons. This includes an excess of signalling as a result of chemical activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors. These changes result in hyperexcitability. This can also be caused by a loss of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-releasing inhibitory interneurons in the spinal horn.\nInhibitory Interneuronal Changes\nIn addition to changes in pain transmitting neurons, inhibitory interneurons and descending modifying control systems are dysfunctional in individuals with neuropathic pain. There seems to be a shift towards hyperexcitability. Noradrenergic (neurotransmitter) inhibitions, carried out by alpha-two-adrenergic receptors in the the spinal cord, are lessen in neuropathic pain. It appears there is enhanced serotonin signalling through the 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 serotonin receptors that then dominates.\nOther causes involved in neuropathic pain contribute to ectopic activity, or out of place impulse generation within the pain pathways, and central sensitization. Spontaneous ectopic activity can be present in both injured and neighbouring uninjured pain afferents. After nerve damage, inflammation induces the recruitment of macrophages. These cells release pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumour necrosis factor alpha, which contribute to pain hypersensitivity. Furthermore, after peripheral and central nerve damage, activated microglia in the CNS release several immune affecting molecules that help to maintain neuropathic pain. These inflammatory processes, in addition to other changes that occur around the peripheral nerve endings, contribute to peripheral sensitization. This is when there is decreased activation thresholds and increased excitability.\nBecause the cause of the pain can rarely be treated, management of neuropathic pain focuses on treating the symptoms. Patients do not usually respond to pain medication like acetaminophen, NSAIDs or weak opioids (e.g. codeine). The approach to treat neuropathic pain is to first treat with drugs and complementary therapies before other strategies are tried such as interventional therapies including nerve blocks or neuromodulation.\nFirst-line drug treatment for peripheral and central neuropathic pain is with pregabalin (a GABA analogue), gabapentin (a GABA inhibitor), duloxetine (a serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor) and various tricyclic antidepressants. These are strongly recommended.\nSecond-line treatment for peripheral neuropathic pain only is with high-dose capsaicin patches, lidocaine patches and tramadol (an opioid with serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibition effects). They have weak evidence in support of their use.\nThird-line treatment and with weak recommendations for use is with strong opioids (oxycodone and morphine) and botulinum toxin A.\nInterventional therapy is usually reserved for those who do not respond or only respond partially to the treatment above.\nEpidural local anaesthetic and steroid nerve blocks provide transient (1 to 3 months) relief for peripheral neuropathic pain associated with trauma and compression.\nLow-intensity spinal cord stimulation, whereby burst or high-frequency (10 kHz with sinusoidal waveforms) stimulation is applied, can provide pain relief.\nStimulation of afferent fibres outside the spinal cord and subcutaneous peripheral nerve field stimulation can provide pain relief in patients with occipital neuralgia and postherpetic neuralgia.\nFinally, epidural and transcranial cortical stimulation may reduce pain-associated thalamic hyperactivity or activate descending inhibitory pathways. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation involve stimulation of brain area of interest with magnetic coils or electrodes on the scalp.\nIntrathecal Therapies\nIntrathecal therapies involve delivering drugs to targeted nerves via an implanted and refillable pump. Morphine and ziconotide (a calcium channel antagonist) are two drugs approved for use in such devices.\nPregabalin is a first-line treatment | Source\nNeuropathic pain is chronic pain that is caused by damage or disease of the somatosensory system. It affects as much as 10% of general population. There are subjective screening tools to help identify patients with neuropathic pain. More stringently, there are objective tests done at the bedside to confirm neuropathic pain. It appears that neuropathic pain is the result of changes in the somatosensory system, including alternation in ion channels, pain transmitting neurons, and inhibitory interneurons. Inflammatory process also appear to contribute to the neuropathic pain. All these contribute to hyperexcitability of the pain transmitting system. Treatment usually consists of drugs to reduce symptoms. For those who are resistant to drugs, interventional therapy may work.\nPatients with neuropathic pain have a reduced quality of life. It is often associated with a number of other problems like loss of function, depression, anxiety, disturbed sleep and impaired cognition. Research is still needed so that we can one day be able to treat the underlying causes of neuropathic pain instead of just treating the symptoms.\nBaron R, Binder A, Wasner G. 2010.

I'm very sorry to hear about your ongoing pain. I'm not certain if you will ever get rid of your discomfort. There may be other options to look into such as nerve stimulation (see above Interventional Therapies). These might help you. Please speak to your doctor about this and other therapies. I hope that you do find relief!\nI had shingles in October 2017. I'd had them twice before ~~~ no problem. Suddenly, when the eruptions were healed.. I developed severe upper left back pain. having previously had a heart attack I was concerned. Pain also was around my left waist area. My GP (about to retire) diagnosed it as post-herpetic neuralgia. My new GP put me on gabapentin, then lyrica. The side effects of both were not acceptable ~~~~ my vision diminished, was dizzy almost continually, etc. New physician ordered 7 oxycodone tablets with script directions \"take one every 4 hours for 3 days\" ~~~~ it was impossible to divide them into 3 days!! Finally, I have been using herbal oils specified for this particular neuropathy plus also use Biofreeze topical occasionally. I still have continual pain in my left waist area radiating to my left lower back, but not as severe. I take only acetaminophen for pain and not often. My QUESTION: Will I EVER get rid of this discomfort? ALSO: Have NOT received the \"NEW\" shingles immunization shot. It has been on order and their list at my pharmacy for at least 6 months, but there is a shortage. At age 83, I hope I'll get it before having herpes zoster again!\nHi Westmids 67,\nI'm sorry to hear of all your pain and suffering. It must be difficult to live with your conditions. Your case seems very complex and may involve many different diseases. I'm not a doctor so I can't give you any medical advice. I think it's best that you discuss your symptoms with your doctor or a pain specialist. I wish you all the best!\nwestmids 67\nI was diagnosed with nerve damage and neuropathic pain many years ago in 2010. I was prescribed Pregabalin which ive been taking twice daily since, this started gradually after an experience on waking in 2006 when I couldn't move my right side but had intense numbness and pain. My GP initially thought id had a stroke by describing my symptom's when she arrived decided it was more likely extreme sciatica. Since then pain has developed in my lower back, hips feet left ankle. I now take many pain killers struggle to walk had a few MRI'S diagnosed with dehydrated discs, prolapsed discs which regularly move. excessive worn discs. in 09I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH OTEO ARTHRITIS IN MY FEET & HANDS. I have numbness, tingling down my leg in my feet as well.\nIm virtually unable to walk even around the house, have a stair lift, would adore a bath as only had showers sine early 2011. Any medical advice would be very much appreciated. im just 50 yrs old.\nThank you for visiting, for reading my work and for your kind words. This type of pain is especially hard to deal with as it also affects quality of life. I wish your family well. Thanks again for your feedback!\nThis hub is full of great information. I enjoyed reading it, especially since some folks in my extended family have experienced the pain. It is the opinion of their physicians that it is due to inflammation. Once again, great hub.",

The medical term is lateral epicondylitis. Tennis players are not the only people to commonly experience tennis elbow. Repetitive motion creates this condition, and stress of overuse, which leads certain muscles to develop small tears. Specifically at the end of the extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle, which connects to the elbow. The tendons and muscles in your forearm are under a lot of stress when you repeatedly strain them with a particular action. When they tear, it puts stress on the rest of your arm, the tendons become inflamed, and it may be painful to grip or lift objects. Affecting up to 3% of the population, sufferers may develop symptoms such as an ache or pain in the elbow, a weakness in the arm and hand and it may be tender to touch.

        "raw_content": "The Greyhound breed is well known for its agility, speed, and love of running. Greyhounds have been seen throughout history as a breed of nobility in both Egypt and England. Here is a brief history of this regal breed, and their introduction to course racing that was borne out of their love of running.\nEvidence of the Greyhound breed is first dated back to roughly around 2500 BC in ancient Egypt. Marked on the tombs of by-gone pharaohs are painting and carvings of dogs that closely resemble the notable Greyhound physique. To drop a few names of well-known ancient Egyptian leaders, Tutankhamen, Amenhotep II, Thutmose III, Queen Hatshepsut, and Cleopatra VII are all said to have owned Greyhounds long ago.\nThroughout the ages Greyhounds have become popular for their helpful hunting abilities. Unlike other dog breeds, they do not have a particularly keen sense of smell. What makes them excellent hunters then? They are well known for their excellent eyesight and speed. Hunters would use greyhounds in hunting because they could count on their dog to see a moving animal from a long distance away. Because Greyhounds are particularly fast and possess a striking love of running, they are able to spot and catch prey superbly.\nIn literature and lore, Greyhounds may be seen all over the place. For example, many Biblical versions of Proverbs 30:29-31 mention the stateliness of the Greyhound. Also, the legendary Odysseus arrived home after a 20-year trek and was greeted by his faithful hound upon his homecoming. Also, Diana the Roman huntress, was said to have owned and favored Greyhounds in Roman lore. Greyhounds have also been mentioned in five of William Shakespeare\u2019s plays, as well as in works of Chaucer.\nMost scholars believe it was the Romans who originally introduced England to the sport of Greyhound coursing during their occupation in 43 AD. However, there is evidence that supports the belief that the Celtic peoples were already participating in the sport prior to the Roman invasion.\nThe sport of coursing actually set the groundwork for the sport we know today as simply Greyhound racing. Coursing is the sport in which dogs race for a gaming animal such as a hare or an antelope. Later on in years, coursing by proxy,\u009d that is, using a toy or a stuffed hare as the bait instead of a live animal was introduced. Similar to horse racing, people enjoy watching beautiful animals in full flight doing what they love. Also like horse racing, people enjoyed the sport more when they were allowed to place bets on the particular dog or the outcome of the race.\nWhile popularity of Greyhound racing grew in the United Kingdom, it struggled in the United States. Greyhounds were popular among cavalrymen in America\u2019s Wild West because they were excellent hunting helpers and companions. The first official Greyhound race in the United States took place in Salt Lake City in 1907. However, funding for this sport was lacking, and it actually didn\u2019t pick up fully until the late 1920\u2019s in Florida.\nThese long, lithe, and lean dogs symbolize passion in today\u2019s society for the sport of running. Greyhounds have been known as a breed favored by Egyptian, Roman, and English nobility throughout the ages. The most important thing to remember about this breed is that these dogs choose to race because of their sheer love of running, which has stood as an example to many societies throughout time.\nArticle provided by Pet Super Store a site featuring:bird cages, dog doors and dog bowls.\nPlease note that the opinions expressed by the guest author are not necessarily shared by the owners of this HealthierDogs.com site.\n2 thoughts on \u201cUncover the True History Behind Greyhound Racing\u201d\nGreyhound Lover August 29, 2015 at 5:13 pm\nThey \u201cchoose to race\u201d?

        "raw_content": "A finned tube heat exchangers is a kind of heat exchanger design with the intention of uses plates and finned chambers to transfer heat between fluids. It is repeatedly categorized as a compact heat exchanger to emphasize its relatively high heat transfer surface area to volume ratio. Theplate-fin heat exchanger is widely used in many industries, including the aerospace industry for its compact size and lightweight properties, as well as in cryogenics where its ability to facilitate heat transfer with small temperature differences is utilized.\nOriginally conceived by an Italian mechanic, Paolo Fruncillo, a plate-fin heat exchanger is finished of layers of grooved sheets separated by flat metal plates, typically aluminum, to create a series of finned chambers. Separate hot and cold fluid streams flow through alternating layers of the heat exchanger and are enclosed at the edges by sidebars. Heat is transferred from one stream through the fin interface to the separator plate and through the next set of fins into the adjacent fluid. The fins also serve to increase the structural reliability of the heat exchanger and allow it to withstand high pressures while providing an extended surface area for heat transfer. A high degree of flexibility is present in plate-fin heat exchanger design as they can operate with any combination of gas, liquid, and two-phase fluids. Heat transfer between multiple process streams is also accommodated.\nThe cost of Finned tube heat exchangers is generally higher than conventional heat exchangers due to a higher level of detail required during manufacture. However, these costs can often be out weighed by the cost saving produced by the added heat transfer. Fin heat exchangers are generally applied in industries where the fluids have little chances of fouling. The delicate design as well as the thin channels in the fin heat exchanger make cleaning difficult or impossible.\nHigh heat transfer efficiency especially in gas treatment\nLarger heat transfer area\nApproximately 5 times lighter in weight than that of shell and tube heat exchanger.\nAble to withstand high pressure",

        "raw_content": "How can CBD improve the lives of people on the Autism Spectrum?\nAccording to Autism Speaks, an organization dedicated to spreading awareness and acceptance of people who fall anywhere on the spectrum, autism is \u201ccharacterized, in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors.\u201d There are a variety of disorders that fall into the umbrella term \u201cAutism Disorder Spectrum\u201d, including Asperger\u2019s Syndrome. An estimated 1 in 68 children in the US are on the Autism spectrum (1 in 42 boys and 1 in 189 girls). While the specifics of what causes Autism are still a mystery, in the last five years a variety of genetic and environmental factors that effect early brain development have been linked to autism.\nThere are a vast array of individuals that fall within the Autism spectrum. Some are able to function quite independently, and even take pride in their unique way of viewing the world. On the other end of the spectrum lie individuals who are totally nonverbal, self-harming, and need constant supervision to ensure their safety. Risperidone, aripiprazole, naltrexone, and fluoxetine are four medications that are prescribed quite often, with often debilitating side effects, including extrapyramidal effects (sudden, often jerky, involuntary motions of the head, neck, arms, body, or eyes), dizziness, tiredness, fatigue, fever, weight gain, feeling hot or cold, headache, dry mouth, increased appetite, restlessness, anxiety, sleep problems (insomnia), nausea (rxlist.com).\nRecently, more research has been conducted surrounding Autism and the possibility of CBD being an effective treatment for patients all along the spectrum. It has been found that Autism patients\u2019 brains do not act on the Endocannabinoid system in the same way that people\u2019s brains who don\u2019t have Autism do. When this system isn\u2019t working properly, many neurological problems can develop, including Autism.\nThe Endocannabinoid system is the same system that CBD effects, which has led a variety of individuals and medical researchers to explore CBD as a possible treatment for people who fall anywhere on the spectrum. Many studies have shown positive results, which has pushed a variety of families with children on the spectrum to seek out this alternative treatment. This article from Forbes gives several families\u2019 stories, including Marie Myung-Ok Lee, a Brown University professor whose son had extreme Autism and would display self-harming behavior such as banging his head repeatedly. After being treated with CBD, her son is now able to ride a bike and no longer displays self-harming behaviors!\nWhile there is still a lot of research to be done to discover the most effective use of CBD as a treatment for Autism, there is indisputable evidence that CBD is beneficial for people anywhere on the spectrum. With zero side effects and proven benefits, CBD should be added to all Autism patients\u2019 diets. If you or a loved one is suffering from Autism, are frustrated with the ineffectiveness or side effects of conventional treatment, or simply want to try something more natural, consider trying CBD!\nPrevious Previous post: Israeli Research Shows Cannabidiol May Slow Alzheimer\u2019s\nNext Next post: The Benefits of Antioxidants from CBD",

The lines are so ingrained and immobile in the sand here that it's set up to have one winner and one bitter loser...and you can be sure that loser will come back next time with a redoubled effort.\nThis could be akin to thermonuclear war...and there's no such thing as a winner of that. All you govern are ashes and dust.\nI've liked Burke's proposal from the start, but there's no way his luxury tax would stand as is. The way I read it, if a team wanted to have a $50M payroll they'd have to pay a total of $110 (50M + (12 X 5M=60M)) for it. That sure as heck would be tantamount to a salary cap in my world.\nLol Burke made a 10 year old proposal, way to go. I liked some of his ideas, his cap idea is too strict ( why the hell a minumum budget? ) and it gets really high really fast, my calcs say if you want a $50 million dollar payroll, you'd have to pay ($50 + $46.5) = $96.5 millions, that's crazy. It's too obvious that it's a hard cap more than anything.\nThe more I think about it, the more there shouldn't be a hard cap. Teams just don't have consistent revenue from year to year, this isn't the NFL, where each team gets $72 millions from the TV deal and the cap is at around $78 millions. Teams go up and down with their attendances depending on their rebuild/contending stages. A team that's rebuilding would be able to sqeeze a maximum of $25m for a payroll but if the same team grows and goes deep in the playoffs and contends, they can go all the way up to $45m-$50m.\nTeam payrolls/revenues just fluctuate all the time, it's part of the NHL more than other major sport. I think what the CBA should bring is cost certainty and eliminating the large market advantage. If Bettman sees that a $31m cap won't solve anything to making a better NHL, he could actually *think* for once and bring a system which might be around a luxury tax that the players want and get everything the owners want as well.\nlittleHossa, Sep 23, 2004",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Make history to learn history\nHIS 392 Posts: Oct. 2 and 3 \u2192\nPosted on October 3, 2013\tby michelledaneri\nDebates about what students should learn in the classroom reveal a tension between the importance of content and skill building in History teaching. In \u201cThe History Curriculum in 2023\u201d article, T. Mills Kelly argues that an emphasis on skill building is imperative to keeping History relevant in the 21st century. Students should develop historical thinking skills, and the ability to be critical of the past and present, in a way that can be integrated with technology. Kelly points to digital storytelling and interactive exhibits as examples of successful use of technology in telling history. History should be taught so that students get practice in doing history, and how to do so in a way that embraces prevalent technologies, and prepares students for the changing workplace.\nKelly suggests that the history classroom should provide students with the opportunity to make history in the same way the science lab allows students to conduct experiments. This would create an environment for active learning, where students could practice and develop their skills. Instead of thinking about technology as an obstacle to overcome, or awkwardly introduce, it should be seen as expanding the possibilities for teaching and making history. New technologies, such as digital exhibits, offer new means of teaching history in a more interactive and immersive way. Students also have the ability to practice making history and expressing it through different forms of media, like video games. This approach encourages skill building in practicing history, and using new technology, and these skills would serve to make students more viable in their future careers. An argument for skill development in the history classroom emphasizes its importance over the importance of teaching content.\nAlthough the argument for teaching skills in the classroom is an important one, it is met with arguments that note the importance of teaching certain types of content to students. In the chapter \u201cHistory in Education: Trends and Themes in Teaching History 1900-2010\u201d by Jenny Keating and Nicola Sheldon, in the edited collection Debates in Teaching History, trace the history of teaching history to students in the UK. The authors found that what content was taught was contingent on political beliefs at any given time. Although early history education emphasized the history of nation and empire, by the interwar period, history teachers began to emphasize world history. This was seen as essential to preventing war. If students were aware of the world\u2019s history, they would ideally learn from mistakes of the past, and avoid another world scale conflict in the future. The content in the course was also meant to create good citizens. The attitude towards what content is taught, reveals the belief that what students learn in the history classroom has larger social implications.\nThis reveals a tension between encouraging skill development and covering content to fills gaps in a student\u2019s knowledge. While being able to make history is an undoubtedly valuable skill, there is also value to teaching certain content. If the history classroom did not cover the world, what would students leave school knowing about the global market they will all live and work in? If students did not learn about some of this nation\u2019s more troubling and oppressive actions, would they become passive and unaware citizens? These are important questions to keep in mind, and these questions are further complicated by who decides what content is important. Those who hold the power to set content based curriculum effectively control what knowledge students will be exposed to.\nIdeally, students should be taught in an environment that encourages skill building, including the ability to think critically, which would allow them to critically engage the content they are taught. If students question more, instead of passively receiving information, they can work to oppose the authoritative nature of standard curriculums. This approach is less about separating or creating opposition between skills and content, but provides opportunities for these elements to come together. X emphasized the serious need for history to remain relevant, and combination of skills can content can do so. Skills will keep history relevant for the abilities and approaches it can teach students. Learning to make history, and communicate it through growing technologies, will allow the student and the history class to stay relevant. Certain types of content will create students who are more aware and knowledgeable about their society and the world around them. History, and its ability to encourage critical thinking and introduce students to broad types of content make the discipline valuable and relevant in a rapidly changing society, where the value of teaching history is often under attack.",

        "title": "Transforming Climate Risk into a Business Opportunity",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Risk and Resilience \u00bb Transforming Climate Risk into a Business Opportunity\nBy most accounts, climate change is described as a threat\u2014a risk to business-as-usual. Nearly 90% of Global 100 Index companies have indicated climate change as a current or future risk to business performance, and investors are increasingly interested in how companies plan to manage climate risk. On October 24, 2017, at the KU Leuven Campus in Brussels, Belgium, Jos Delbeke director-general of DG Climate Action and chief negotiator for the EU at many UN Climate conferences, presented a view that is often neglected: climate change as a business opportunity.\nThough it may sound contrary, the results of this business opportunity are already becoming evident globally. The pressure of climate risk has encouraged astounding levels of innovation in renewable energy sources, efficiency breakthroughs, and global cooperation toward addressing the issue. Studies show that 21 countries, including the United States and many European countries, have already begun to decouple their economic growth from carbon emissions.\nIn his keynote speech, Mr. Delbeke presented an overview on climate science and findings, global governance programs, and the EU 2030 Climate Policy which have catalyzed activities in both public and private sector organizations to tackle climate change. It was stressed throughout, that the momentum of the Paris Climate Accord has not been hampered by the decision of the U.S. to withdraw. Quite the opposite has happened, as other countries strive to fill in for the greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions necessary to achieve the 2-degree Celsius warming threshold (compared to pre-industrial levels) set out by the IPCC 2013 5th Assessment Report.\nFor example, it was noted that China\u2019s ambition in this domain not only remains unwavering, but is in fact advancing even deeper. Mr. Delbeke introduced to the group the term, \u2018ecological civilization\u2019, used by the Chinese as a new take on sustainable development, indicating the country\u2019s intention to truly imbed sustainability and environmental responsibility into the values of the culture. Though China\u2019s GHG emissions were allowed to peak by 2030, as outlined in the Paris Agreement, the country wants to expedite that, now even towards 2022 perhaps.\nThis global drive toward carbon reduction by China and other developing countries, Mr. Delbeke made clear, should be taken as a signal to the developed countries of the world to step up.\n\u201cFor Europe, yes we are on plan towards 2020, but much more effort will be needed for 2030 targets and 2050\u201d ~ Jos Delbeke\nMr. Delbeke went on to discuss the 3 pillars of the EU 2030 Climate Policy, and the role these will play in helping reach global climate targets. The 2030 Policy mandates a 43% reduction in carbon, a 27% increase in renewable energy sources, as well as an improvement of 27% for energy efficiency measures compared to 2005.\nThough low carbon prices in the EU (some 7 eur/ton now) have been criticized for not being aggressive enough to incentivize renewable uptake, Mr. Delbeke notes that 2020 quotas are still on track to be delivered across member states. But, in order to achieve 2030 carbon reduction goals and beyond, more needs to be done.\n\u201cThe EU power sector needs to be fully decarbonized by 2050\u201d, asserted Mr. Delbeke, \u201cfor EU industry, breakthrough technologies will help to realize carbon reduction\u201d\nGlobal investments in renewable energy (hydro, wind, solar, etc.) and infrastructure (grids, transmission) paired with reduced costs for new energy opportunities will indeed enable the energy transition. The question, however, is whether these will be enough to avoid the worst effects of climate change, predicted to occur beyond the 2 degree warming threshold. Though these questions remain, it is clear that recognition of the business case for climate action will be key in pushing climate progress to the top of corporate agendas.\nDownload the slides from this presentation or visit DG Climate Action online to learn more about the European climate action plan.",

Anybody who has done it before, will understand the intricacies involved in it. From deciding to organizing to packing, there are many steps that one needs to go through with utter care and precision for moving an office. Also, if you want to hire a professional mover, it may take up a lot of your time in choosing the best movers near you. But, the process can be made much easier if you know what to look for in a commercial mover. In this article, we will discuss about three ways which will make it easier for you to find a reputable commercial mover.\nA Company That Can Offer You a Simple Quote\nSometimes, with movers, quote can be a real big problem. It can be one of the most painful experiences that you can experience with a professional mover. Some of the professional moving companies will give you an overcharged quote, some others will quote you with costs that you don\u2019t even know of. To be safe from these movers, it\u2019s better to search for a company that will give you a hassle-free quote which will be explained through detailed price distribution. This is a great way to save your money and also time, since, you can actually take the quote and then compare it with other companies quote. Another way to ensure that you are getting the fairest price possible is by, choosing a company which offers an on-site quotation. On site quotation means, the company will give you a detailed list of itineraries and the price, so that you get a full picture of the pricing. It also enables you to take a plan, that if you want to move on with the company or not.\n7 points to be considered while buying a bunk bed\nMoving a company is very different that moving a home. A company consists of important documents, machines, which if somehow damaged can ruin the entire operation of the company. One of the riskiest part of moving an office is the packaging and the transportation process. Sometimes, if the packaging and the transportation process is carried on by an inexperienced company who are inadequately supplied, things can get damaged, broken and scratched. Search for a company which uses tools like dollies, blankets and crates to transfer the stuffs to and from trucks. If you have got things which needs to be disassembled before transportation, then make sure that the moving company also got the necessary expertise.\nA Company That Can Do the Job Quickly\nWhen it comes to business, \u2018Timing is Everything\u2019. True that. If you miss out a day\u2019s business due to the humdrums related to the moving process, you are losing out on business. Hence, find a company which will move your things up to your new office in a timely fashion. Search for a company which has GPS trackers in its truck, which will enable you to track your items. In order to reduce the risk of delays, which can otherwise be bad for your business, try to find a company which can do the job quickly but safely.\nMoving an office can be stressful, if you do not find the right service to help you in this venture.

Here are some quick and easy beauty hacks that you may use to look the best even if you are running late in the morning.\nCUT SHOWER TIME WITH DRY SHAMPOO\nIn an ideal world, washing your hair will be done on a daily basis. However, owing to the fact that washing will also necessitate blow drying, most people often limit this task to a few times per week. Well, here\u2019s great news! You can get the same fresh-smelling and clean hair simply by using dry shampoo. All that you will need is ten minutes tops! You won\u2019t even need to blow dry your hair since your tresses will instantly come out looking fresh and well-maintained.\nGET FLAWLESS SKIN WITH A SUNSCREEN AND PRIMER COMBO\nIn addition to putting on your makeup every morning, there are different kinds of products that you can use in order to ensure that your skin is protected from the sun, that your pores are hidden from view, and that your make-up will not slide off for the rest of the day. You may dramatically cut your early morning prep time by using multi-functional products that will give you all these benefits. The next time that you go shopping, find a product that is the right combination of a primer, a moisturizer, and a sunscreen. With this, you will be able to take care of your skin without spending too much time for your morning routine.\nSLEEP WITH A BUN, WAKE UP WITH WAVES\nThere is no denying the fact that fixing and setting your hair can take up the best part of your morning. Why don\u2019t you simplify this process by taking care of your tresses before sleeping? Before hitting the bed, secure your hair in a tight bun. Once you remove the bun in the morning, you will wake up to a head full of bouncy curls!\nSome people have the habit of preparing their clothes before going to bed, but there will be times when you will be too tired by the end of the day to even do this. Save yourself from the early morning panic by planning ahead and arranging the week\u2019s outfit on the weekend. This will give you enough time to assess the pieces in your wardrobe and carefully plan out how you may use them together. When done right, you will end up with a week\u2019s worth of beautiful and stunning outfits that will breathe life to your Instagram feed!",

(File)\nBJP chief Amit Shah said on Saturday that Indians have the right to the country\u2019s resources, and it is not a \u2018dharamshala\u2019 where illegal immigrants can come to settle down.\nDescribing illegal immigration as threat to the country, Shah said National Register of Citizens (NRC) is a way to solve the basic problems of the country and should not be connected to the BJP.\n\u201cNRC should not be seen by connecting it with the BJP only. It is a way to solve the country\u2019s basic problems. How is it possible that anyone can come and settle down here? The country cannot run like this. Those who are its citizens should stay here only and they only have the right to the resources of this country.\n\u201cThis country is not a dharamshala (charitable shelter home) that anyone can come and settle down here,\u201d Shah said while speaking at the Jagran Forum organised by the Dainik Jagran media group.\n\u201cThey (intruders) should be identified. Delete their names from the electoral roll. The BJP clearly believes that they should be identified and deported. Intruders are also threaten the security of the country,\u201d he said while replying to a question on NRC.\nAssam, which faced an influx of people from Bangladesh since the early 20th century, is the only state having a National Register of Citizens (NRC), first prepared in 1951. It is being updated under the monitoring of the Supreme Court.\nThe complete draft of the NRC was published on July 30 and included the names of 2.9 crore people out of the total applications of 3.29 crore. Those omitted have been given an opportunity to submit documents afresh to prove their residency.\nMeanwhile, at the same event, Shah said the BJP will do well in all five states where polling has concluded and will win Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan.\nIndia is not a 'dharamshala' for illegal immigrants: Amit Shah on NRC\n1 SAD leadership prays at Akal Takht, seeks apology for 'inadvertent mistakes'\n2 ED raids against Robert Vadra's associates an act of 'hooliganism': Congress\n3 J-K records 79.9 pc voting in penultimate phase of panchayat polls",

        "raw_content": "A Call to Action: Preparing for Change\nBy Frank Burkitt, Managing Director, AlixPartners\nFrank Burkitt, Managing Director, AlixPartners\nThe unexpected results of the U.S. Presidential Election quickly injected uncertainty and risk in business enterprises across many industries. Executives now face the challenge of assessing the implications of the election results on their respective businesses\u2014 some may see unexpected opportunity while others see increased uncertainty and risk. The questions that every executive must now answer are: (1.) What does it mean for your business? and, (2.) What actions do you need to take?\nPotential Risk Drivers\nPerhaps most vexing is the lack of specificity on many of the issues that have been discussed during the campaign. The lack of specificity means that most companies need to prepare for an extended period of change. While many of these changes are yet to be fully defined, there are seven key issues that all companies should consider explicitly:\n1. Market Instability\nThe recent Brexit action suggests an initial shock and then the market may settle\u2014for a while. Unlike Brexit, some of the global impacts of the proposed shift in U.S. trade policy may result in a series of shudders. Based on the single Brexit vote, the UK has been experiencing historic lows in the value of the pound, loss of its AAA credit rating, and an imbalance in the industry\u2019s most impacted by the decision to leave the EU, like manufacturing, services and agriculture.\nThe proposed tax plan would lower the business tax rate from 35 percent to 15 percent, eliminate corporate alternative minimum tax, and offer a repatriation of corporate profits held offshore at a one-time tax rate of 10 percent. The plan, as described during the campaign, will also eliminate most corporate tax expenditures except for the Research and Development Credit.\n3. Trade Agreements\nTrade agreements provide a stable structure for companies to plan against as they weigh various market actions. Given the potential for existing trade agreements to be upended, there are short and long-term implications to be considered.\nImmigration has been a heated topic throughout the campaign and the impact of the suggested changes are considerable. In particular, the tech industry must begin to consider how to meet its future hiring needs given its reliance on global access to talent through the use of H1-B visas. But, the tech industry is not alone. With the rise of digital, many industrial companies are actively building their software and technology capabilities, further driving demand for tech skills well beyond available and projected domestic supply. In May 2016, CNN Money reported that the U.S. had around 5.75 million job openings but employers were having difficulty finding qualified applicants.\n5. International Security Accords\nU.S. businesses have interests around the world and existing security accords provide some level of stability for corporate investment planning. It has been suggested that U.S. may shift its collective security commitments considerably in a number of key global markets. The geopolitical risk to global supply chains will need to explicitly consider this reality.\nA key focus of the campaign was the impact the last several decades of globalization have had on domestic job creation and loss. While the actual drivers of the shift in manufacturing from the U.S. to China and Mexico will continue to be debated, it has been suggested that there may be some form of corporate tariffs for future globalization. During the campaign, tariffs as high as 35 percentage for goods manufactured in Mexico and up to 45 percentage on goods coming from China were proffered. While this level of tariffs may be unrealistic, it does suggest that the impact of a range of tariffs should be considered.\n7. Technology Policy\nDuring the campaign there was no clear technology policy. A number of important concerns were highlighted like Net Neutrality, Cyber Protection, Data Rights, and Internet Controls\u2014but there were no definitive positions or proposed regulatory requirements to plan against.\ninventory-management.logisticstechoutlook.com/cxoinsights/a-call-to-action-preparing-for-change-nid-313.html",

Kim Engineering Building, scheduled to open in January 2005.\nThe award supports the creation of a revolutionary experimental platform with unprecedented capabilities for rapid exploration of advanced complex smart materials and memory devices, as well as systematic investigation of their physical mechanisms. Laser molecular beam epitaxial growth under ultraclean conditions will enable control and lattice engineering of materials at the atomic level, while in-situ patterning of the materials will deliver combinatorial libraries for rapid materials discovery and development. Characterization of materials properties and performance metrics across the combinatorial libraries will be carried out using a novel microscope which measures the performance of materials through spin resonance microwave microscopy at the nanoscale and surface structure at the atomic scale. The chemical and structural properties of the combinatorial material libraries will be monitored during their production using surface analytical techniques; then the samples will be transferred to the microscope under ultraclean conditions. This will enable researchers to establish clear correlations and deep understanding of how the architecture of materials at the nanoscale determines the properties and performance of complex material systems.\nThe Keck Laboratory brings together University of Maryland excellence in materials research, particularly in complex multifunctional oxide materials, combinatorial materials science, surface nanostructures, and integrated materials processing. The NSF Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) at Maryland is a leader in the synthesis and characterization of complex material systems, the development of surface nanostructure probes, and nanoscale understanding of underlying physical mechanisms of materials and surfaces. The NSF International Materials Institute (with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Florida International University) is a focal point for global collaboration and advance of combinatorial materials experimentation and informatics.\nProfessor Williams, founding Director of the NSF MRSEC at Maryland, is an expert in scanning probe microscopies and atomic scale characterization of surfaces. She is a distinguished university professor in Physics and the Institute for Physical Science and Technology (IPST), and the recipient of numerous awards, including the APS Goeppert-Mayer award and the MRS Turnbull Lectureship. Professor Takeuchi is a pioneer in combinatorial materials science and multifunctional materials. An associate professor in Materials Science and Engineering and the Center for Superconductivity Research, he has received an NSF CAREER award and an ONR Young Investigator award. Professor Rubloff has been a leader in ultraclean, integrated processing and characterization of electronic materials. He is the former director of the Institute for Systems Research, professor in Materials Science and Engineering and ISR, and the recipient of the AVS Gaede-Langmuir Prize.\nThe W. M. Keck Foundation is one of the nation's largest philanthropic organizations. Established in 1954 by the late William Myron Keck, founder of The Superior Oil Co., the Foundation's grantmaking is focused primarily on the areas of medical research, science, and engineering.",

        "raw_content": "The United Nations Postal Administration (UNPA) will issue new postage stamps and a souvenir card to celebrate International Jazz Day on 30 April 2014. The stamps, featuring three mini-sheets of twelve stamps were designed by Sergio Baradat (United Nations).\nJazz is a unique American musical art form that originated at the beginning of the 20th century. It is rooted in African traditions, draws from European musical forms, and has evolved into various styles across the globe. For over a century, Jazz has united people of different cultures, religions, and nationalities. It serves as a universal language and highlights the musical genre\u2019s role as a powerful communication tool for peace, dialogue and cooperation.\nIn 2011 the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) proclaimed 30 April as \u201cInternational Jazz Day\u201d. Each year, this international day brings together communities, schools, artists, historians, academics, and jazz enthusiasts all over the world to celebrate and learn about the art of jazz, its roots, its future and its impact. This international art form is recognized for promoting peace, dialogue among cultures, diversity, respect for human rights and human dignity, eradicating discrimination, promoting freedom of expression, fostering gender equality, and reinforcing the role of youth for social change.\nMr. Baradat, the artist of the stamp series had the following to say about the designs:\n\u201cThis was a wonderful project to work on. I approached it as a multi-faceted piece of art where each stamp is a collage onto itself, in tandem with the other pieces to create one large composition. I was inspired by the abstraction that is Jazz; I wanted to give the designs atmosphere and a sense of sound through colour. Along the way, I listened to old favourites: Chet Baker, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Duke Ellington and a host of others from the 1920\u2019s through 1950\u2019s\u201d.\nInternational Jazz Day events, which are organized by UNESCO and the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz, highlight the historic influence that the genre has had in connecting people and igniting social change. Osaka, Japan has been selected to serve as the 2014 Global Host City. Concerts, conferences and discussions about jazz and its principles will be ongoing throughout the day across the globe, as well as local community events, such as schools, clubs, town squares and village centres.\nFor more information about International Jazz Day, please visit www.jazzday.com or www.unesco.org/jazzday.\nThe stamps, issued in US dollars, Swiss francs and Euros are sold at United Nations stamp shops in New York, Geneva and Vienna.

        "raw_content": "Confronting Zionism: A Collection of Personal Stories\nConfronting Zionism: A Collection of Personal Stories embodies a year-long project by members of the New York City chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace.\nThe booklet grew out of a three-part discussion series about Zionism, anti-Semitism, and our own histories of coming to embrace justice for Palestine and questioning mainstream Zionism. It contains thirteen testimonies by JVP members from the New York City area\u2014of diverse ages, backgrounds (Ashkenazi, Mizrahi, Sephardic, Israeli, Palestinian) and genders; a discussion of the project\u2019s rationale in the booklet\u2019s introduction; and an annotated bibliography and set of discussion questions.\nWe hope this booklet will be of use to educators, students, activists, researchers and anyone who is \u201cwrestling with Zionism\u201d as a political ideology, a family battlefield, a dream betrayed, or a form of racist exclusion in everyday life.\nORDER THE BOOKLET\nThis is a must read, especially today. Confronting Zionism helps us to cut through the noise pollution that deliberately confuses anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism\u2014a confusion created by Israel\u2019s apologists to justify and excuse its colonialism, racism and apartheid. The world must hear loud and clear the voices of Jews of conscience, such as the contributors to this book, who take a stand against Palestinian dispossession. We must support their urgent call not to let Israel or Zionism speak in their name.\n\u2013 Rabab Ibrahim Abdulhadi \u2013 Director and Senior Scholar, Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies (AMED), and Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies, San Francisco State University\nConfronting Zionism is a timely, critical presentation of deeply personal experiences with Zionism and the courage of average people to confront powerful and well-resourced narratives aimed at erasing uncomfortable truths. These probing testimonies challenge the notion that Zionist political ideology is synonymous with Judaism, and they expose the incongruity of an ethno-religious Jewish state in a region where millions of indigenous Palestinians long for freedom, human rights and democracy. Must read and must share!\n\u2013 Huwaida Arraf \u2013 Human rights attorney and activist; co-founder of International Solidarity Movement\nGiven the hasbara (propaganda) so many of us were told about the history and creation of Israel\u2013stories that neglected to center the Nakba, the expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians from their homes and land\u2013it is our obligation to learn that history, which extends until today, and act accordingly. This collection of stories reflects the unlearning and new learning undertaken to bring the authors to their critical work as partners in the movement for justice in Palestine.\n\u2013 Donna Nevel \u2013 Community psychologist and educator; co-author, Islamophobia and Israel; founding member, Network Against Islamophobia\nA STORY FROM CONFRONTING ZIONISM\nWhat follows is a portion of the author Talia Baurer\u2019s personal testimony, titled \u201cUnlearning Zionism\u201d:\nI grew up imbued with a strong Jewish identity, a fascination with my family\u2019s Holocaust legacy, and a deep love for and pride in the state of Israel. These three things were totally and inextricably linked. The first two are still at my core.\nJewish education, and with it Israel education, were a priority for my parents in raising my two older sisters and me. We grew up attending synagogue regularly, went to Jewish day school for elementary school and in my case middle school, and involved ourselves in Jewish youth groups through middle and high school. At my elementary school, I learned about Tikkun Olam and related social justice principles as core Jewish values. I was taught to value and take pride in the legacy of American Jewish solidarity with the Civil Rights movement; and in the same classrooms, I learned that Palestinian schools taught children that Heaven was beautiful so that they would grow up to be suicide bombers, and that Israel (\u201cwe\u201d) kept ceding more land to the PLO (\u201cthem\u201d) while being met with greater demands and ceaseless violence. I learned that this was my issue, the current event that affected my life perhaps more than any other.\nMy family also periodically went to visit relatives in Israel, and I celebrated my Bat Mitzvah in Jerusalem. I grew up knowing that Israel was my homeland, that I had deep biblical and historical roots there, and that its existence made me safer in the world \u2013 among other insidious mythologies. And though my parents did not subscribe to the extreme right-wing Zionism of some in our community, and did not agree with all of my teachers\u2019 mischaracterizations of the region\u2019s recent history, these core assumptions were never questioned. At home or in school, we never talked about the true lived experiences of Palestinian people.\nIn order to make sense of this handed-down worldview that I held onto throughout adolescence, in order to relate to my school-aged self, I now hold onto memories of moments at which the foundations of my Zionist illusions splintered even slightly. When I was in high school, my family went to visit my sister at college, and sitting in her dorm room I watched her take on my parents in a heated, emotional debate that brought into question the core ideas on which our Zionism rested. On another weekend a year or two later, I was trained in \u201cIsrael advocacy\u201d through my youth group. This meant learning a few empty talking points that could be employed in the face of the opposition, who were represented in one training exercise by someone who shouted us down and behaved aggressively while yelling one-line arguments. I later expressed my frustration to a friend: \u201cWhat if they aren\u2019t yelling in your face? What if they have valid points?\nIn late high school and early college, I began to feel\u2014rather than understand\u2014that I leaned further left on this issue than my childhood friends or the groups like J Street that existed on my campus. I was (and still am) fortunate to know that my older sisters, my most trusted political and ideological guides, disagreed with our upbringing. I was too intimidated by my own ignorance to attend a Students for Justice in Palestine meeting, or to ask my sisters for resources. And though they were careful not to impose their views on me, I trusted their support of the BDS movement (which just made clear sense to me, even then) and, later on, their appreciation of Jewish Voice for Peace. After my freshman year of college, I spent a month in Israel and visited the West Bank for the first time. My group toured the Palestinian town of Susya with Breaking the Silence, heard from Susya residents, and later that day saw the hauntingly segregated streets of Hebron. I finally let go of the historical narrative of my childhood education, and began to hollow out my old sense of what Israel and Zionism meant for my life, my communities, and the world in general. I had unlearned enough to distance myself from my past beliefs, but I had not relearned enough to articulate my new ones. I settled into uncomfortable silence.\nIn the summer of 2014, I was an intern at a sexuality education and training organization where I got to do justice-oriented work that I loved with like-minded people. Part of my job was to coordinate the organization\u2019s Facebook and Twitter, so I spent a lot of time on my intern shifts scrolling through various progressive news sources as well as my personal and work feeds. On July 8th, 2014, when Israel launched Operation Protective Edge, I was a month into my internship. From that day on I spent shifts glued to my computer, distracted from my organization\u2019s page by the most recent news, opinions, and heartbreaking stories about the assault on Gaza. My uncertainty abated, my well- cultivated connection to Israel faded into a sense of emptiness, and I woke up as I watched the numbers mount of the Palestinians being murdered in my name. In the face of isolating, useless despair, the cry of \u201cNot in my name\u201d and the JVP community gave me words and action to shatter my lifelong silence and complicity. That summer I, like so many others, felt whatever was left in my carefully constructed illusions crumble and fall away.\nThis story continues in Confronting Zionism: A Collection of Personal Stories.\nAnti-ZionismantisemitismJVP-NYCNew York",

These earplugs were sold and marketed as \u201cDual-Ended Combat Arms Earplugs, Version 2 (CAEv2)\u201d and have been found to be defective. Because 3M may have known about the defect, but did not notify the U.S. Military or its service members, you may have a claim for compensation.\nIn July of 2018, 3M paid $9.1 million to resolve a U.S. Department of Justice investigation that the company knew that their earplugs were defective but sold them to the military anyway. According to the court documents, 3M was aware that the dangerous Dual-Ended Combat Arms\u2122 Earplugs, Version 2, were defective when they were sold to the military. Specifically, the earplugs, which were supposed to protect ears from excessive noise levels during combat or training, were too short and came loose or fit improperly in certain users\u2019 ears. This allowed the vibrations from dangerous noise levels to damage the small filaments in the ears that affect hearing quality. 3M did not tell the military about the defective plugs and may have altered test results to make it seem like the earplugs met government standards, the government\u2019s court filings say.\n3M Combat Arms Earplugs were standard issue for US Troops deployed between 2003 \u2013 2015, including these conflicts:\nOperation Enduring Freedom: Afghanistan\nOperation Freedom\u2019s Sentinel: Afghanistan\nOperation Iraqi Freedom: Iraq\nOperation New Dawn: Iraq\nIslamic State-Operation Inherent Resolve: Syria & Iraq\nThese earplugs were never recalled by 3M and may still be in use.\nIf you served in the U.S. Military between 2002 and 2016 and suffer from tinnitus (ringing in your ears), partial or complete hearing loss, or hearing-related complications to your Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or Traumatic Brain Injury, you may be eligible for compensation.

        "raw_content": "Leveraging Tragedy: Bias in the Media\nPosted: August 6, 2012 | Author: rjrock | Filed under: Communications | Tags: abc news, bias, brian ross, broadcast journalism, cnn, communications, content analysis, death of objectivity, fox news, mass communication, media bias, objectivity, washington post | 2 Comments\nOn July 20th of 2012, Jim Holmes walked into the midnight premiere of the movie The Dark Knight Rises and killed 12 people, and wounding another 59 before being apprehended by local police (KUSA-TV, 2012). As the event unfolded, media organizations across the nation and the globe mobilized and began extensive coverage of the shooting that continues to this day. While much of the initial coverage focused on the factuality of the event, there were errors that some in the media considered evidence of bias. Most notably, was the suggestion by Brian Ross of ABC News, that the shooter might have links to the Tea Party, a mistake that some suggest is evidence of liberal bias in the media (Goldberg, 2012; Irvine, 2012; Scott, 2012). Furthermore, Scott (2012), a Fox News commentator, suggested liberal bias extended beyond ABCs factual blunder towards politicization of gun use, noting the \u201cmedia coverage of the movie theater massacre in Colorado spark[ed] another one-sided debate on gun control\u201d (p. 2). After completing a critical evaluation of the media event that included a traditional content analysis, this author found that the charges of bias are likely justified, although not one-sided; rather, bias appears to be a de facto presence in news media, despite the western journalistic norm of objectivity.\nIn order to understand whether Scott\u2019s (2012) charge of media bias did or did not have merit, this author critically evaluated the news coverage of the shooting against McQuail\u2019s (2010) standard of objectivity. In addition, a basic content analysis was conducted to determine the extent to which the subject of gun control was associated with the shooting story, analyzing the total number of articles on the theater shooting on mainstream print and broadcast media organization\u2019s websites, comparing that with how many articles associated the theater shooting with either gun control. Moreover, the number of articles that associated gun control with the shooting were compared with Kohut and Remez\u2019s (2009) report identifying public perception of news network ideology to determine whether the perceived ideology was associated with the amount of coverage. Finally, this author commented on the potential sources of bias in the coverage.\nEvaluation of Objectivity: The Brian Ross Incident\nDuring a Good Morning America segment on the theater shooting with George Stephanopolis, Brian Ross described significant information related to the shooting, indicating, \u201cThere is a Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado, page on the Colorado tea party site as well. Talking about him joining the tea party last year. Now, we don\u2019t know if this the same Jim Holmes, but this is Jim Holmes, Aurora, Colorado\u201d (Byers, 2012, p. 1). Of course, it turned out later that a completely different Jim Holmes was responsible for the shooting. To what degree did Brian Ross\u2019s statement meet the standard of objectivity? According to McQuail (2010), information quality reflects the broadly shared public interest in reliable information from trusted source \u201cthat matches the reality of experience\u201d (p. 200). Westerstahl (1983) described the main components of objectivity as factuality and impartiality. While the information was clearly not factual, it may or may not have been impartial. It appears that Ross may have jumped directly to an existing liberal narrative of the Tea Party as right-wing extremists without checking sources to verify the factuality of the claim, certainly an error in professional judgment. Potential sources of bias include either Ross\u2019s socialization and attitudes, or an organizational routine that took shortcuts in order to capture audience share. In either case, the information presented was neither factual, nor impartial, and therefore does not meet the standard for objectivity.\nThe Theater Shooting and the Guns Debate\nWhile there appears to be some validity to Scott\u2019s (2012) charge of bias against Ross, Scott also suggested a broader bias by the media to use the theater shooting to have a \u201cone-sided\u201d debate regarding gun control, conceivably to influence the public to take action to limit guns in some way. In order to critically examine the charge of bias, this author conducted a traditional content analysis based on Berelson\u2019s (1952) definition using the following parameters:\nContent Analysis Parameters\nUniverse or sample\nMainstream U.S. print and broadcast media websites\nCategory frame\nOriginal articles in the last 30 days\nArticles referring to \u201ctheater shooting\u201d and articles referring to \u201ctheater shooting\u201d AND \u201cgun control\u201d\nTable 1. Parameters for traditional content analysis of media bias in theater shooting coverage.\nThe websites analyzed included the CBS News, ABC News, NBC News, CNN, Fox News, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Investors Business Daily, and the Washington Post. Each source was categorized based on their public perception, where the public perception of the broadcast media was based on Kohut and Remez (2009). The print media did not have a third party referent for public perception of bias, therefore this author categorized the print media based on internal views of liberal or conservative bias. The results are outlined below:\nData from content analysis\nPerceived Bias\n# Articles on \u201ctheater shooting\u201d\n# Articles on \u201ctheater shooting\u201d AND \u201cgun control\u201d\n% of coverage with political interpretation\nTable 2. Data collected during content analysis of theater shooting coverage.\nThe information in Table 2 was analyzed to determine the degree to which the story was covered by mainstream media along liberal and conservative lines and the degree to which the story was interpreted by the media in a broader political context. The analysis was limited insofar as did not include a qualitative interpretation as to the direction of the bias. The results are outlined below:\nResults of content analysis\nTotal # of Articles\nMedian # articles\nBias towards selection Liberal\nTendency towards politicization Liberal\nTable 3. Analysis of selection bias and tendency towards politicization of theater shooting coverage along conservative and liberal lines.\nIt is clear that media organizations perceived as liberal by the public provided far more coverage of the story than did their conservative counterparts. Equally clear, is that media organizations perceived as conservative were far likelier to provide a political interpretation of the story for their audience, in the broader context of the gun control narrative. While the shooting was a key event, the public significance of the shooting triggered mediahype, where extensive coverage of the event and subsequent manufactured events created a media frenzy that media organizations were likely able to monetize. Indeed, The Pew Research Center For The People & The Press (2012) found that the shooting overwhelmingly held audience interest over other stories, lending credence to the idea that the coverage of the tragedy was a commercial boon to most media organizations, perhaps a cause for the extensive coverage.\nGiven the economic potential of coverage, why then did the conservative press cover the story far less than the liberal press? Perhaps the story did not fit into existing conservative narratives on gun rights? Given the lack of a qualitative analysis, it is impossible to tell. Equally so, the story may have served the liberal media both commercially, and in terms of their political narrative on the importance of gun control, both powerful influences to select and politicize the story. Accordingly, both liberal and conservative organizations appear to be biased in their selection and presentation of the story.\nCharges of media bias are commonplace and may very well be accurate in some cases, given that bias is likely structural, given the wide variety of forces influencing media. Scott\u2019s (2012) charge of bias on the part of the liberal media is supported by this author\u2019s analysis, although it was not one-sided as was suggested. Rather, bias appeared to be a persistent presence in both liberal and conservative media organizations, or a fact of life in professional news organizations, despite their professed norms of objectivity.\nBerelson, B.

        "raw_content": "In the southern part of the island of Thassos from where there is a stunning view of the sea and Mount Athos, located the main shrine of the island - the Monastery of Archangel Michael, whose history is closely connected with the Holy Nail from the right hand of Jesus Christ, which was found during the excavations of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.\nAfter the Cross of Christ was brought to Constantinople, the Byzantine emperor as a gift to the newly restored monastery Philotheus on Holy Mount Athos, bestowed numerous values, including the Holy Nail. After the osman imperia seized the Holy Mountain, the monks rescued holy objects by sending them to other countries by sea.\nA boat with relics hit the storm and the monks landing on Thassos, hid the holy objects in the rocks exactly where stood the chapel of the Holy Archangel, and later the Holy Nail was found here during the restoration of the monastery. When found out about it on the holy mountain, the monks decided to return it to Mount Athos.\nHowever Archangel Michael wanted to return the Holy Nail in Thassos therefore he appeared in the dream of the monks from the monastery Philotheus on Mount Athos ordering them to return the nail to Thassos. The monks disobeyed him and later noticed that the nail was gone. Since then the holiday of the return of the Holy Nail is celebrated in Thassos annually after Easter.\nToday the Holy Nail is kept in the monastery and anyone can it see. Besides here you can see the arms exhibition, visit a shop selling souvenirs made by nunn\u2019s hands and of course put a candle in the church and pray for healing from physical and spiritual ailments.\nFor people with strong physical health there is a unique opportunity to go down by very difficult path and on a steep cliff down under the monastery, where you can find a miraculous source of healing water. The spring located in a small cave where you need to enter bent over as if worshiping the Archangel Michael. According to legend who will try the healing water in this source will receive healing from various diseases.\nBook your trip to the Monastery of Archangel Michael in Thassos Island",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Mussolini: Stategist or Opportunist?\nThe significance of the Great Exhibition 1851 \u2192\nAlthough Western Europe had long had the basic trappings of capitalism (private property, wealth accumulation, contracts), the Industrial Revolution fueled the creation of a truly modern capitalist system. Widespread credit, business corporations, investments and large-scale stock markets all become common. Britain led the way in this transformation. By the 1780s, the British Industrial Revolution began to further accelerate. Manufacturing, business, and the number of wage labourers skyrocketed, starting a trend that would continue up to 1870. Meanwhile, technology changed: hand tools were replaced by steam- or electricity-driven machines.\nThe economic transformation brought about the British industrial revolution was accompanied by a social transformation as well. Population boomed, and demographics shifted. Because industrial resources like coal and iron were in Central and Northern England, a shift in population from Southern England northward took place. Northern cities like Manchester grew tremendously. These changes in social and demographic realities created pressure for political change as well. The first act to protect workers went into affect in 1802. Pressure to redress the lack of representation for the new industrial cities and the newly wealthy industrial manufacturers also began to build.\nMeanwhile, industrialists developed an ideology called Laissez Faire based on Adam Smith\u2019s Wealth of Nations (1776) and continued by David Ricardo and Robert Malthus. Based on this, the discipline known as \u201ceconomics\u201d developed, largely to give the manufacturers a basis for arguing for little or no regulation of industry. Instead of government interference, these economists argued that a free market, in which everyone followed their own self- interest, would maximize the nation\u2019s utility.\nBritain, with its head start in manufacturing, its many world markets, and its dominant navy, would dominate industry for most of the 19th century. Towards the end of that century, the United States and Germany would begin to challenge Britain\u2019s industrial power.\nAmong the Western European countries, Britain was the ideal incubator for the Industrial Revolution because an \u201cAgricultural Revolution\u201d preceded it. After 1688 the British kings lost power and the aristocratic landholders gained power. The landholders tried to rationalize their landholdings and started the Enclosure Movement to bring more and more of their own land under tighter control, a process that went on throughout the 1700s. This policy had two main effects: it increased the productivity of the land, and transformed the people who used to work land into an unemployed, labor class of poor in need of work. Thus, the first factories had a ready labour- supply in Britain that was not available in other nations. Important inventions like the \u201cSpinning Jenny\u201d to produce yarn began to be made in 1760s, and soon the British textile industry was booming, aided by Eli Whitney\u2019s invention of the \u201cCotton Gin\u201d in America, which provided a ready source of cotton.\nThe Industrial Revolution represented a shift in influence away from the traditional power-holders in England. Aristocratic rule was no longer supreme, for \u201cupstart\u201d manufacturers were now often more wealthy and more important to the nation\u2019s overall well being than the landed gentry. They also employed a far greater percentage of the national economy. Often, the aristocracy, trying to take power away from the manufacturers, would ally with the working class. As both sides, aristocrats and manufacturers, competed for the support of the workers, reforms in Britain gradually took place through Parliamentary deal- making without the need for a bloody revolution. The Industrial Revolution allowed increasing urbanization and greatly increased the overall wealth and production power of humanity, although not everyone always shared in the benefits of industrialization equally.\nThough industrialization was most prominent in Europe, its transformative powers must be seen as a theme through the period of 1815-1870. Capitalism and the Industrial Revolution went hand-in-hand with the Western European countries\u2019 liberal traditions. Many of the same principles underlying the French Revolution were being developed via the Industrial Revolution in Britain. Industrializing nations developed middle classes who began to wield political clout. Further, the Industrial Revolution would give Western Europe the economic system and technology to dominate much of the world in the colonial period towards the end of the 19th century. The countries that did not transition to industrial systems very quickly got left behind, and often ended up as satellites to the major powers. It would be some time before workers developed a counter-ideology of their own. Yet as manufacturing brought hundreds of thousands of workers into the cities, they started thinking about organizing to protect their own political interests. By 1825, the workers in the industrializing nations would become a social and political force of their own\nThis entry was posted in A Level History, British Empire, History, Imperial Expansion 1815-1870 and tagged A Level History, British Empire, History, Industrial Revolution.

        "raw_content": "The Council\u2019s Government Operations Committee Advances Critical Campaign Finance Bill\nWashington, DC \u2013 Today, Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie (D \u2013 Ward 5), Chair of the D.C. Council\u2019s Committee on Government Operations, advanced key campaign finance reform legislation one step closer to a vote before the full Council. The \u201cCampaign Finance Reform and Transparency Amendment Act of 2013\u201d was approved by the Committee in a 5-0 vote.\nAmong the significant reforms in the legislation is the closure of the \u201cLLC loophole,\u201d which historically has enabled limited liability companies to make campaign contributions well in excess of individual limits. McDuffie\u2019s bill subjects all related businesses, including corporate subsidiaries and LLCs with shared owners, to a single contribution. \u201cThe Committee heard loud and clear from residents and advocates that business owners must be on equal footing with everyone else. To allow a business owner to multiply his or her contribution by the number of businesses he or she owns flies in the face of fairness. This legislation ends that inequity.\u201d\nMcDuffie\u2019s original reform proposal also included a repeal of the Council\u2019s contract approval authority, a power anomalous to the District\u2019s legislature that has, along with the LLC loophole, contributed to a pay-to-play culture in District elections. The Council is the only major legislative body in the United States that approves contracts. McDuffie cautioned, \u201cThe Council\u2019s role in approving contracts perpetuates the perception that politicians and contractors are trading contracts for contributions. It\u2019s this perception of pay-to-play that harms voter confidence. Closing the LLC loophole and ending the Council\u2019s role in approving contracts are integral to restoring the public\u2019s faith in the District\u2019s electoral process.\u201d\nHowever, Chairman Mendelson removed the controversial contract approval provision on procedural grounds, instead promising that the Committee of the Whole will hold a hearing on the matter. \u201cThe Council needs to take a hard look at this practice,\u201d stated McDuffie. \u201cChanges of this magnitude may be uncomfortable, but campaign finance reform of this nature is long overdue.\u201d\nThe legislation also addresses a host of other problems that have plagued District elections over the past several cycles by capping money order donations at $100, mandating training for campaign treasurers, and granting the Attorney General jurisdiction to prosecute misdemeanor campaign finance violations.\nSeveral noteworthy transparency measures are also central to the bill, including a requirement that campaigns report fundraising data online. In turn, the Office of Campaign Finance must publish fundraising data on its website, in fully sortable and downloadable form, within 24 hours of receipt. \u201cThe public and media have an important role in exposing questionable campaign practices, so it\u2019s critical that we have the data to follow the money. I consulted with open government watchdogs to construct a plan that incorporates the best practices in data transparency.\u201d McDuffie\u2019s bill also requires lobbyist disclosure of bundled contributions.\nThe bill now advances to the full Council for consideration in November.",

        "raw_content": "Experiences as Boy Telegrapher\nThe Electric Lightbulb\n\u201cInvention Factory\u201d in West Orange\n(1847\u20131931). When he was 21 years old, Thomas Edison took out his first patent. It was for an electric vote counter to be used in the United States House of Representatives. The machine worked perfectly, but the congressmen would not buy it. They did not want vote counting to be done quickly. Often the roll call was used for purposes of delay (filibustering).\nCourtesy of the Edison National Historical Site, West Orange, N.J.\nThis experience taught the young inventor a lesson. He decided to follow a simple rule: \u201cFirst, be sure a thing is wanted or needed, then go ahead.\u201d By the time he died at 84, Edison had patented, singly or jointly, 1,093 inventions. Many were among the most useful and helpful inventions ever developed\u2014including the motion-picture projector, the phonograph, and the incandescent electric lightbulb.\nThomas Alva Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on Feb. 11, 1847. His father, Samuel Edison, was a freethinker who tried many different careers. His mother, Nancy Elliott Edison, was a schoolteacher. When Thomas was seven, the family moved to Port Huron, Mich. There he went to school for a few months\u2014the only formal schooling he ever had. He was educated mostly at home by his mother, who helped him to read classic works of literature, history, and science. By the time he was 12, he had also begun to do chemistry experiments and had his own laboratory in his father\u2019s basement.\nCourtesy of the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Edison National Historic Site\nWhen he was 13, Edison began working on the Grand Trunk Railroad between Port Huron and Detroit, selling newspapers and candy. To continue his chemistry experiments he set up a laboratory in a baggage car on the train. He also began publishing his own newspaper there on a press that had been used for printing handbills. He was typesetter, press operator, editor, publisher, and newsboy for this paper, which he called The Herald. He printed many reports of the Civil War battles, and these helped to make his newspaper a success.\nAt about this time Edison lost almost all of his hearing. A number of explanations have been given for his deafness. One story, told by Edison himself, is that a conductor once took him by both ears to lift him onto the train. Edison felt something snap in his head, and his deafness began then. It is more likely that his hearing problems were due to a type of infection that ran in his family. Whatever the cause, Edison always said he did not mind being deaf. It kept him from being bothered by outside noises and he could give full thought to the work at hand.\nWhen Edison was 15, he saved the life of the toddler son of a station agent at Mount Clemens, Mich. Edison was standing on the station platform when he saw that a freight car was about to run over the child, who was playing on the tracks. He pulled the boy from danger. The child\u2019s grateful father, John Mackenzie, offered to teach young Edison how to be a telegraph operator. He soon learned Morse code and became skilled in sending and taking messages. In 1863 he became a telegrapher at Stratford Junction in Ontario, Canada. In his spare time Edison experimented with an old telegraph set, taking it apart and putting it together again. Eventually he understood exactly how it worked.\nOne of Edison\u2019s first inventions was a telegraph repeater, which automatically relayed a message to a second line. The second instrument was made to work at a slower speed than the first. When a message came in too fast over the first receiver for Edison to copy easily, he could slow down the message by relaying it over the second machine. This device was the germ from which some of his later important inventions were developed.\nAs a young telegraph operator Edison spent all he earned on books and equipment. His employers were impatient with his habit of forgetting about his work as a telegrapher while he worked on his own experiments. Even so, he became a skilled operator. Soon he began to wander around the country, getting jobs as a \u201ctramp telegrapher\u201d whenever he had to have money. He continued to work on his ideas for inventions.\nIn Boston in 1868 Edison became a telegraph operator for Western Union. By January 1869 he had made enough progress with a duplex telegraph (a device capable of sending two messages simultaneously on one wire) and a printing telegraph, which converted electrical signals to letters, that he gave up his telegraphy job to become a full-time inventor.\nEdison moved to New York, bringing with him an idea for a stock quotation printing device. There he met Samuel Laws, who already had a stock printer in operation. When this machine broke down, Edison repaired it. He was then hired by Laws, and out of this association grew the development of a stock printer that worked perfectly. For this and other related inventions Edison expected to be paid only a few hundred dollars. He was shocked when Laws handed him a check for $40,000.\nEdison used this money to start a laboratory and factory in Newark, N.J. He soon had 300 employees and began turning out a number of successful inventions. He had as many as 50 inventions at various stages of development and manufacture at one time. Most of these had to do with telegraphy.\nEdison\u2019s work habits would strain his marriage with Mary Stillwell, a former employee of his laboratory. The couple wed in 1871 and had three children.\nAfter five years in Newark, Edison opened a new laboratory and machine shop in Menlo Park, N.J. There, from 1876 to 1886, he did his finest work. He soon became world-famous as the Wizard of Menlo Park. Not all his inventions were made easily, however. He worked on some for years and spent thousands of dollars in perfecting them. \u201cGenius,\u201d he said, \u201cis two percent inspiration and ninety-eight percent perspiration.\u201d\nEdison\u2019s early work at Menlo Park centered on the telephone, which had been introduced by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. The first Bell telephone was both a transmitter and a receiver. One spoke through it and then put it to one\u2019s ear to hear the reply. The instrument was also weak in reproducing the voice and picked up much static. Edison invented a carbon transmitter that greatly improved the telephone\u2019s sound capabilities. It was the standard design in telephone transmitters until the 1970s. He also invented a receiver that contained a button-sized chalk diaphragm.\nU.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Edison National Historic Site\nEdison\u2019s telephone work led to his invention in 1877 of the first device that could record and reproduce sound\u2014the phonograph. He called it a \u201ctalking machine.\u201d Edison\u2019s phonograph consisted of a revolving cylinder wrapped in tinfoil. A needle was pressed against the cylinder. Attached to the needle were a diaphragm and a large mouthpiece.\nWhen Edison spoke into the mouthpiece while rotating the cylinder, his voice made the diaphragm vibrate. This caused the needle to make indentations in the tinfoil. When a second needle traced over the indentations, the phonograph reproduced Edison\u2019s original words. When Edison first demonstrated the machine to his laboratory assistants, they were startled to hear coming from it the words, \u201cMary had a little lamb.\u201d For a time they thought Edison was playing a trick on them. Later, when everyone had become convinced of the reality of Edison\u2019s invention, he became world famous.\nOxford Science Archive/Heritage-Images\nEdison next focused his efforts on producing an electric light to replace gas lighting. Although electric lighting had existed since the early 19th century, it was not yet practical for home use. Edison\u2019s aim was to invent a lamp that would become incandescent, or luminous, as a result of heat passing through it.\nEdison made filaments, or threads, of many heat-resistant materials into glass globes. The heat crumbled the filaments into ashes. Later he pumped air out of the bulbs. Using platinum filaments in these vacuum bulbs, he had some success. But he needed an inexpensive substance to use for filaments. He continued his research for many months.\nIn October 1879 Edison introduced the modern age of light. In his laboratory he tensely watched a charred cotton thread glow for 40 hours in a vacuum bulb. He knew then that he had invented the first commercially practical incandescent electric light. In his continuing search for a filament that would work better than the cotton thread, carbonized bamboo seemed most successful. For nine years millions of Edison lamp bulbs were made with bamboo filaments. In time, however, the modern filament of drawn tungsten wire was developed.\nEdison also devoted his energies to improving the dynamo to furnish the necessary power for electric lighting systems. In addition, he developed a complete system of distributing the current and built the first central power station in lower Manhattan in 1882.\nTo work on the power system, Edison moved his operations from Menlo Park to New York City. His wife died there in 1884. A widower with three young children, Edison married Mina Miller in 1886. They also had three children.\nIn 1887 Edison opened a new laboratory in West Orange, N.J. He called it his \u201cinvention factory.\u201d The first major undertaking at the new laboratory was a return to the phonograph, which Edison had abandoned to work on electric lighting. Spurred by the work of competitors, including Alexander Graham Bell, Edison worked to create a phonograph that was practical for business and home use. In the 1890s he established facilities for the production of both phonographs and the records to play on them.\nMeanwhile, in 1888, Edison and William K.L. Dickson had developed a motion-picture camera and a projector. The camera was called the Kinetograph. The projector, called the Kinetoscope, was a small box inside which the motion picture was projected. The picture was viewed through a peephole, meaning that only one person at a time could view the show. Competitors soon developed projectors that displayed the pictures on a screen, which hurt the Kinetoscope\u2019s business. Edison then acquired a projector developed by Thomas Armat and marketed it under the name Vitascope.\nOn the laboratory grounds in 1893 Edison developed the first motion-picture studio. This was a tar-paper shack in West Orange that was called the \u201cBlack Maria.\u201d It was built on rails so that it could be moved around to take advantage of the sun as a scene was being filmed.\nAnother important product of the West Orange laboratory was the alkaline storage battery. By 1909, after a decade of work on the project, Edison was a principal supplier of batteries for submarines and electric vehicles and had even formed a company for the manufacture of electric automobiles.\nDuring World War I Edison headed the Naval Consulting Board for the government and directed research into torpedo mechanisms and antisubmarine devices. In 1920, largely at his instigation, Congress established the Naval Research Laboratory, the first institution for military research.\nIn October 1929, 50 years after Edison had invented the incandescent lightbulb, the country paid tribute to him on Light\u2019s Golden Jubilee. The setting for the event was the new Edison Institute of Technology, established by Edison\u2019s friend Henry Ford in Dearborn, Mich. Here Ford moved the Menlo Park laboratory.\nEdison died in West Orange on Oct. 18, 1931. His West Orange laboratory and his 23-room home, Glenmont, were designated a national historic site in 1955. The laboratory is exactly as he left it. It includes his library, papers, and early models of many of his inventions.",

Water abstractions are a major pressure on freshwater resources, particularly from public water supplies, irrigation, industrial processes and cooling of electric power plants. It has significant implications for issues of quantity and quality of water resources. This dataset shows water abstractions by source (surface and ground water) and by major uses. Water abstractions refer to water taken from ground or surface water sources and conveyed to the place of use. If the water is returned to a surface water source, abstraction of the same water by the downstream user is counted again in compiling total withdrawal. When interpreting those data, it should be borne in mind that the definitions and estimation methods employed by Member countries may vary considerably among countries.",

        "raw_content": "From exhaust gas to raw material\nCan CO2 be put to good use?\nCO2 is a nutrient for algae. In Germany's first pilot plant for CO2 capture by microalgae, the microalgae grow ten times more quickly on flue gases from the Niederau\u00dfem coal-fired power than land plants do. \u00a9RWE\nCO2 is all around us, and many consider it to be problematic from a climate perspective. It would be ideal if a use for this \"climate killer\" could be found. However, the concrete areas of application and potentials for CO2 are largely unknown outside of the specialist community. At a symposium held in D\u00fcsseldorf on 21 September 2010, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the energy company RWE examined the issue of how CO2 can be used as a raw material in new products instead of allowing it to escape into the atmosphere.\nWith its support programme called \"Technologies for sustainability and climate protection \u2013 Chemical processes and material use of carbon dioxide\", the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research is helping scientists and industry to work together to develop innovative processes. Total funding of 100 million euros has been approved for this programme by 2014.\nThe capture and use of CO2 from industrial plants or power plants (Carbon Capture and Usage, or CCU for short) is an unconventional approach that will hopefully contribute to climate protection in the future. CO2 can be used as a technical gas or else converted in biotechnology, biology and chemistry applications where it serves as a carbon building block.\nThomas Rachel, Parliamentary State Secretary in the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, would like to see CO2 shake off its bad image. Speaking before an audience of around 70 researchers and politicians, he emphasised that the use of CO2 is by no means the perfect solution to climate problems, but that it does have a contribution to make here. Up to one percent of CO2 emissions could be stored in high-quality products, and as much as 10 percent in fuels. A number of approaches are being pursued in parallel here, with the aim of ensuring that Germany is a technology leader in the international competitive arena.\nFor example, RWE is working together with Jacobs University Bremen and Forschungszentrum J\u00fclich to \"feed\" algae with CO2 from the flue gases of a coal-fired power plant in a breeding plant that is around 600 m2 in size. The algae use the climate gas as nutrients and can then serve as biomass in the production of biogas. The fact that this plant can only bind a few tonnes of CO2 per annum is evidence of the minor role of CCU technologies in quantitative terms.\nOn the other hand, researchers such as Prof. Dr. Walter Leitner from the Institute for Technical and Macromolecular Chemistry at RWTH Aachen University highlight the scientific challenge of using the carbon in CO2 to develop a chemical feedstock that could reduce dependency on oil for many products. 107 megatonnes of CO2 are already being used in fertiliser production every year. CO2 will soon be a component in plastics such as polyurethane which, when used in insulation technology, will save heating energy and thus also CO2. The \"Catalytic Center\" in Aachen is already drumming up enthusiasm now among young researchers for this \"dream technology\" that will be ready for industrial applications by 2015, according to Prof. Leitner. Special catalysts still need to be developed for CO2, which displays slow reaction kinetics.\nCO2 can help to store energy\nThe latest joint project, \"Co2rrect \u2013 Use of CO2 as a carbon building block using predominantly renewable energy\", sees researchers tackling two problems at once: On the one hand, a lot of energy needs to be consumed to convert CO2 into other forms. For example, synthesis reactions with hydrogen from renewable production could be used to produce various carbon building blocks, which could then serve as fuels or as intermediate products in plastics production. In this way, CO2 could end up in household products or in DVDs. On the other hand, renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power do not provide a constant supply of electricity. However, the chemical industry generally requires a constant supply in order to operate its processes reliably. The aim of this research project is thus to develop processes for hydrogen production and for the conversion of CO2 into carbon monoxide or formic acid, for example, on an industrial scale in such a way that these processes would also run in a robust manner with a fluctuating supply from renewable energy sources. Required here are new technological developments and, in addition, new models for the interplay of the energy sector and the chemical industry.\nThe partners in \"Co2rrect\u201c are: Bayer Technology Services GmbH; RWTH Aachen University; Technical University of Dresden; University of Stuttgart; Technical University of Darmstadt; Technical University of Dortmund; Ruhr University of Bochum; Leibniz Institute for Catalysis at the University of Rostock; Max Planck Society (MPG); Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT); Bayer MaterialScience AG; INVITE GmbH; RWE Power AG; and Siemens AG.",

        "raw_content": "Economic Turmoil and Political Divisiveness Have Split The Venezuelan People\nGeorge Haramis, Editor/Reporter|February 13, 2019\nNicol\u00e1s Maduro publicly denounces his opposition amidst the struggle for power in Venezuela.\nVenezuela is in economic ruin as overdependence on their oil industry has led to a collapse of their export volume. Since oil exports account for over 50% of Venezuela\u2019s GDP, a decrease in oil prices would greatly decrease the profits of Venezuela\u2019s oil exports. Due to overproduction and more counties beginning to export oil, the value of oil dropped significantly. This, paired with less trade from the US and her allies, has caused not only the Venezuelan economy to collapse, but the bolivar currency as well. In the midst of this economic turmoil, the newly elected Venezuelan president, incumbent Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, was sworn into office for a second consecutive term. This election has drawn attention from many other counties including many from the European Union and NATO. Why has this election become so hotly contested? Simply because both foreign leaders and the Venezuelan people themselves believe the election results were corrupted by Maduro\u2019s regime.\nExtreme food shortages coupled with a worthless currency have led many to the brink of starvation in what was once the richest country in South America. Attempts by the US to aid the Venezuelan people have been made, but due to the Venezuelan military\u2019s blockade, no supplies can make it through. Obviously, the Venezuelan people want change, so the re-election of Maduro was a warning sign to the world that something fishy was going on. Maduro\u2019s past actions contribute to the negative view of his administration. In July of 2017, Maduro\u2019s socialist party or United Sociality Party Of Venezuela, took control of the congressional body, giving him control over two thirds of the government. President Trump condemned this power grab, likening Maduro to a \u2018dictator\u2019. The shady actions of Nicol\u00e1s Maduro\u2019s administration and his inability to stabilize the economy has caused opposition parties to grow en masse. Will the world reject Maduro as Venezuela\u2019s president, or will negotiations paired with financial restructuring save the troubled country? Find out next week in our update on this Venezuelan crisis.\nTags: Nicolas Maduro, Venezuela, Venezuela Economic Crisis",

The Government of the Republic of Macedonia\u2019s Ministry of Education & Science created this thought provoking clip. It was used as part of a social advertising campaign aimed at promoting religious education. The Headline for this commercial reads:\n\u201cReligion is knowledge, too.\u201d\nThe concept is clear. The lack of light brings darkness. One of the great Latter-day Saint (Mormon) prophets of this century spoke on evil just one month following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Here were his words regarding evil:\n\u201d [As] wonderful as this time is, it is fraught with peril. Evil is all about us. It is attractive and tempting and in so many cases successful. Paul declared:\n\u201cThis know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come\u2026Having a form of godliness; but denying the power thereof: from such turn away\u201d (2 Tim. 3:1\u20135).\nWe see today all of these evils, more commonly and generally, than they have ever been seen before, as we have so recently been reminded by what has occurred in New York City, Washington, and Pennsylvania\u2026. We live in a season when fierce men do terrible and despicable things. We live in a season of war. We live in a season of arrogance. We live in a season of wickedness, pornography, immorality. All of the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah haunt our society. Our young people have never faced a greater challenge. We have never seen more clearly the lecherous face of evil.\nAnd so, my brothers and sisters, we are met together\u2026to help and lift one another, to give encouragement and build faith, to reflect on the wonderful things the Lord has made available to us, and to strengthen our resolve to oppose evil in whatever form it may take\u2026 Our strength is our faith in the Almighty. No cause under the heavens can stop the work of God. Adversity may raise its ugly head. The world may be troubled with wars and rumors of wars, but His cause will go forward.\u201d Gordon B.

When I was in my first area on my mission, there was a point where I was struggling severely with both the language and the culture. The language was just a matter of needing more practice. But the culture was a deeper problem. I found many of the quirks of Korean culture absurd, and it really bothered me. There was no excuse for this except stubborn American pride. Sometimes at night, when I\u2019d had a rough day, I\u2019d go out onto our little roof/porch and I would take out my hymn book and sing \u201cBe Still My Soul.\u201d I always choked up when I sang, \u201cthe waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below.\u201d Then one day, I opened my Korean hymnal and sang this marvelous hymn in Korean. It was like a spell was broken, and I was able to see the beauty of Korea through the Korean language. That was a real turning point in my mission. Over time, I grew to deeply love Korea, the Korean people, and their culture, food, and language. To this day, there are hymns and children\u2019s songs I love to sing in Korean even more than in English (\u201cBe Still My Soul\u201d is probably a tossup). When I heard that hymn today, all of that came back to me.\nAnd of course, you already know how much \u201cSweet is the Peace the Gospel Brings\u201d means to me. Once again, I thank you and all your fellow members of the Choir for the wonderful work you do sharing the Spirit through your music.",

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) determined that there is a strong relationship between healthy eating and prolonged survival.\nThe subjects included 351 women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer between 1994 to 1998, who participated in a previous case-control study. The original study collected demographic, clinico-pathologic, and lifestyle-related variables including diet. Each subject completed a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) in which they were asked to report their usual dietary intake during the three to five year period prior to their diagnosis.\nTo translate the diet estimates in a meaningful way, the FFQ items were assigned to the major food groups reflected in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005 (DGA), including fruits, vegetables, grains, meats, dairy, fats and oils, sweets, and alcohol. Grains, meats, and dairy were further subdivided into \u201csuggested\u201d and \u201cother\u201d groups. The \u201csuggested\u201d subdivisions included healthier food choices, whereas the \u201cother\u201d subdivisions contained less desirable selections.\nThe researchers found that higher total fruit and vegetable consumption, and higher vegetable consumption alone led to a survival advantage. A subgroup analyses revealed that only yellow and cruciferous vegetables (e.g., broccoli, kale, cauliflower, bok choy) significantly increased survival advantage. At five years, 75% of the women who ate less than one serving a week of yellow vegetables were alive, compared to about 82% of those who had three or more servings of yellow vegetables a week. Likewise, a statistically significant improvement in survival was observed for the healthier grains.\nHigher intakes of less-healthy meats \u2014 specifically the red and cured/processed meats subgroups \u2014 were associated with a survival disadvantage. Notably, the researchers found a 3-fold increased risk of dying for those women who ate four or more servings of red meat a week compared to those who ate less than one serving per week over the 11-year study period.\nA survival disadvantage was also observed in connection with consumption of the milk (dairy \u2013 all types) subgroup. Women who had seven or more servings of milk of any type per week were two times as likely to die during the study period as those who had none. The researchers stress that the milk finding should be interpreted cautiously, because it may have something to do with the fact that some women are genetically predisposed.\nTherese A. Dolecek, Ph.D., M.S., R.D., Research Associate Professor of Epidemiology, Division of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Institute for Health Research and Policy, School of Public Health, UIC, and a member of the Cancer Control and Population Science Research Program at the UIC Cancer Center, and her colleagues state the following in the article:\nThe study findings suggest that food patterns three to five years prior to a diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer have the potential to influence survival time. The pre-diagnosis food patterns observed to afford a survival advantage after an epithelial ovarian cancer diagnosis reflect characteristics commonly found in plant-based or low fat diets. These diets generally contain high levels of constituents that would be expected to protect against cancer and minimize ingestion of known carcinogens found in foods.\nIn an interview with WebMD.com, Dr. Dolecek said: \u201cTo pinpoint exactly how much survival [was lengthened] is not possible. It varies from person to person.\u201d Many factors affect survival, such as the stage of the cancer at diagnosis and the woman\u2019s age.\nCynthia A. Thomson, Ph.D., M.S., R.D., Associate Professor, Nutritional Sciences, Univ. of Arizona, Tucson\nDavid S. Alberts, M.D., Director, Arizona Cancer Center, Tucson, Arizona\nIn an editorial commentary in the same JADA issue, Cynthia A. Thomson, Ph.D., M.S., R.D., Associate Professor, Nutritional Sciences, University of Arizona, Tucson, and David S. Alberts, M.D., Director, Arizona Cancer Center, Tucson, write the following:\nThe authors provide new evidence that dietary factors, particularly total fruit and vegetable, red and processed meat and milk intakes, may influence ovarian cancer survival. These findings corroborate earlier work by Nagle et. al. and are among only a select few studies of dietary associations with ovarian cancer recurrence and/or prognosis despite a significant and growing body of literature suggesting diet may influence ovarian cancer risk.\nAbout The Journal of the American Dietetic Association\nAs the official journal of the American Dietetic Association (www.eatright.org), the Journal of the American Dietetic Association (JADA) (www.adajournal.org) is the premier source for the practice and science of food, nutrition and dietetics.

But research shows that when women take care of themselves, the health of their family improves. \u2026\u201d\nNational Women\u2019s Health Week empowers women across the country to get healthy by taking action. The nationwide initiative, coordinated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services\u2018 Office on Women\u2019s Health (OWH), encourages women to make their health a top priority and take simple steps for a longer, healthier and happier life. During the week, families, communities, businesses, government, health organizations and other groups work together to educate women about steps they can take to improve their physical and mental health and prevent disease, like:\n* Engaging in physical activity most days of the week;\n* Eating a nutritious diet;\n* Visiting a healthcare provider to receive regular check-ups and preventive screenings; and\n* Avoiding risky behaviors, like smoking and not wearing a seatbelt.\nIt is important to celebrate National Women\u2019s Health Week to remind women that taking care of themselves is essential to living longer, healthier and happier lives. Women are often the caregivers for their spouses, children and parents and forget to focus on their own health. But research shows that when women take care of themselves, the health of their family improves. During National Women\u2019s Health Week it is important to educate our wives, mothers, grandmothers, daughters, sisters, aunts and girlfriends about the steps they can take to improve their health and prevent disease. After all, when women take even the simplest steps to improve their health, the results can be significant and everyone will benefit. The 9th Annual National Women\u2019s Health Week began on Mother\u2019s Day, May 11, 2008 and will be celebrated until May 17, 2008.\nNational Women\u2019s Check-Up Day is a nationwide effort, coordinated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services\u2019 Office on Women\u2019s Health, to:\n* Encourage women to visit health care professionals to receive or schedule a check-up; and\n* Promote regular check-ups as vital to the early detection of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, mental health illnesses, sexually transmitted diseases, and other conditions.\nAs part of National Women\u2019s Check-Up Day, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Agency for HealthCare Research and Quality, provides a health checklist entitled, \u201cWomen: Stay Healthy At Any Age, Your Health Checklist.\u201d Top health experts from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force suggest that when you go for your next checkup, you should use the health checklist and talk to your doctor or nurse about how you can stay healthy regardless of age.\nThe WOMAN Challenge, a free eight week challenge encouraging women and girls (ages 9 and older) to walk 10,000 steps a day or get 30 minutes of moderate exercise daily. Team participation is highly encouraged, so create a team with your friends, family or coworkers. The WOMAN Challenge is a great way to get the exercise you need while having fun and staying motivated. It begins on Mother\u2019s Day, May 11, and ends on July 5, 2008.\nClick Here to Take the \u201cCheck-Up Day Pledge\u201d\nClick Here to Register for the \u201cWomen Challenge\u201d\nPosted in Diet & Nutrition, Early Detection, Prevention\t| Tagged cancer, Prevention, Women's National Health Week | Leave a comment\n\u201cI\u2019m Strongs to the Finish, \u2018Cause I Eats Me Spinach\u201d* \u2014 Popeye May Have It Right When It Comes to Ovarian Cancer Prevention\n\u201cBrigham and Women\u2019s Study Finds Eating a Flavonoid-Rich Diet Helps Women Decrease Risk of Ovarian Cancer \u2013Findings from the Nurses\u2019 Health Study\nBoston, MA \u2013 New research out of the Channing Laboratory at Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital (BWH) reports that frequent consumption of foods containing the flavonoid kaempferol, including non-herbal tea and broccoli, was associated with a reduced risk of ovarian cancer. The researchers also found a decreased risk in women who consumed large amounts of the flavonoid luteolin, which is found in foods such as carrots, peppers and cabbage. These findings appear in the November 15, 2007 issue of the International Journal of Cancer.\n\u2018This is good news because there are few lifestyle factors known to reduce a woman\u2019s risk of ovarian cancer,\u2019 said first author Margaret Gates, ScD, who is a research fellow at BWH. \u201cAlthough additional research is needed, these findings suggest that consuming a diet rich in flavonoids may be protective.\u201d\nThe causes of ovarian cancer are not well understood. What is known is the earlier the disease is found and treated, the better the chance for recovery; however, the majority of cases are diagnosed at an advanced (metastasized) stage after the cancer has spread beyond the ovaries. According to the National Cancer Institute, the 5-year relative survival rate for women diagnosed with localized ovarian cancer is 92.4 percent. Unfortunately, this number drops to 29.8 percent if the cancer has already metastasized.\nIn this first prospective study to look at the association between these flavonoids and ovarian cancer risk, Gates and colleagues calculated intake of the flavonoids myricetin, kaempferol, quercetin, luteolin and apigenin among 66,940 women enrolled in the Nurses\u2019 Health Study. In this population, 347 cases of epithelial ovarian cancer were diagnosed between 1984 and 2002.\nAlthough total intake of these five common dietary flavonoids was not clearly beneficial, the researchers found a 40 percent reduction in ovarian cancer risk among the women with the highest kaempferol intake, compared to women with the lowest intake. They also found a 34 percent reduction in the risk of ovarian cancer among women with the highest intake of luteolin, compared to women with the lowest intake.\n\u2018In this population of women, consumption of non-herbal tea and broccoli provided the best defense against ovarian cancer,\u2019 concluded Gates, who is also a research fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health. \u2018Other flavonoid-rich foods, such as onions, beans and kale, may also decrease ovarian cancer risk, but the number of women who frequently consumed these foods was not large enough to clearly evaluate these associations. More research is needed.\u2019\nThe National Cancer Institute funded this research.\u201d\n[Quoted Source: \u201cBrigham and Women\u2019s Study Finds Eating a Flavonoid-Rich Diet Helps Women Decrease Risk of Ovarian Cancer \u2014 Findings from the Nurses\u2019 Health Study,\u201d Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital Press Release, dated November 13, 2007 (citing findings from \u201cA prospective study of dietary flavonoid intake and incidence of epithelial ovarian cancer;\u201d Gates, M.A. et. al.; International Journal of Cancer, Volume 121, Issue 10, Pages 2225 \u2013 2232 (November 15, 2007))].\nComment: In addition to spinach, foods richest in kaempferol include tea (nonherbal), onions, curly kale, leeks, broccoli, and blueberries.\n* In 1933, Max and Dave Fleischer\u2019s Fleischer Studios adapted Thimble Theatre characters into a series of Popeye the Sailor theatrical cartoon shorts for Paramount Pictures. These cartoons proved to be among the most popular of the 1930s, and the Fleischers-and later Paramount\u2019s own Famous Studios-continued production through 1957. Since then, Popeye has appeared in comic books, television cartoons, a 1980 live-action film (Popeye, directed by Robert Altman), arcade and video games, and hundreds of advertisements and peripheral products.\nEarly references to spinach in the Fleischer cartoons and subsequently in further stories of Popeye are attributed to the publication of a study which, because of a misprint, attributed to spinach ten times its actual iron content. The error was discovered in the 1930s but not widely publicized until T.J. Hamblin wrote about it in the British Medical Journal in 1981. Until that time, the popularity of Popeye helped boost sales of the leafy vegetable 33% in the U.S.\nPosted in Diet & Nutrition, Prevention\t| Tagged Brigham and Women's Hospital, kaempferol, luteolin, margaret gates, ovarian cancer, spinach | Leave a comment",

They are religiously open and enthusiastic toward faith, but have little preparation and support. Recently a ministry in Atlanta hosted a team of women from Brazil. The summary of that visit below shows the heartfelt attitudes of the Brazilian women. There were tears in their eyes when they heard the complete story of the Bible being told.\n\u201cFor the past week, we have hosted a team of 12 female leaders from Brazil to train them to be teachers of the newly translated Bible study Be Amazing. The leaders desired to become experts in the material so they could teach women and introduce the study to other churches.\nThey came to the United States with a purpose, but God had a different plan. The Big Dream Ministries\u2019 teachers taught the various subjects from Titus 2:3-5 and the women learned a great deal. However, what they learned by observing us was far greater. They noticed when each teacher taught, we would open the Bible to teach and then give an explanation about what the Scripture meant. This pattern was repeated multiple times during the talks. This was a foreign concept to them. The Brazilian ladies knew bits and pieces of the Bible, but they were not comfortable handling the text for everyday life. They were hungry to learn more. They were willing to delay eating and sleeping in order to hear more about the Scriptures. They realized that they needed to return to the basics of the Bible, that being a student of God\u2019s Word was the most important thing they could learn.\nThese precious ladies made big sacrifices to come to the United States to learn but are returning to Brazil with very full hearts and ready to share their newfound love for the Bible.\u201d\n\u2013 from The Amazing Collection, Big Dream Ministries\nBibleBrazilChristianityencouragementfaithmissionsPray for Our Worldprayerreligion\nOne thought on \u201cPray for Our World: Brazil\u201d\nEu gosto do Brasil!\nI picked up a little Portuguese a few years ago just for the fun of it.

They may dream of opening up their own local hair salon where neighbors gather for their favorite haircuts and gossip. Others want to create beautiful makeup looks for the stars. No matter what the case may be, they recognize the need to attend a Beauty School in Kansas City. Although they may have a sharp set of skills, taking courses in a professional and academic setting can help them to learn new techniques, understand the jargon of the field, and secure the job of which they have always dreamed.\nPeople who want to enroll in a Beauty School in Kansas City should click here for more information. Thoroughly reviewing the application requirements is a necessity. Many people want to enroll in such programs, so the committee must be selective in whom they choose. Applications that fail to meet the requirements are likely to be quickly put to the side. The first impression that these applications give off is that the applicants are unable to follow simple instructions. For example, if the application asks for a personal statement of no more than 250 words, applicants should make sure that they do not even submit 251.\nNot only is following the requirements important but so is tailoring the application to the specific school. While applicants may have similar reasons for wanting to attend all of the schools to which they are applying, they should create responses to questions, whether short or long ones, that are specific to the school program. Committees want to enroll students who are truly interested in what the school has to offer, not simply students who know how to use the copy and paste features on their computers. It is also important that applicants define who they are as beauticians and whom they want to become. A strong sense of identity in the field can help to make an insipid application more attractive. Turning in the application on time is a must. Late applications are likely not even opened due to their failure to follow requirements.\nAttending Hair School in Kansas City \u2013 What You Should Know\t Have you always dreamed of managing your own hair salon?

        "raw_content": "Greenfield Civil Depositions\nCivil Depositions in Greenfield, California\nFind the right Litigation attorney in Greenfield, CA\nLitigation Lawyers in Greenfield\nIn Greenfield, California, a civil deposition is a part of the discovery procedure in civil litigation.\nIn Greenfield, California, \"discovery\" is a time-consuming process that happens before a case goes to trial. In the process, each side of the lawsuit is legally obligated to disclose all of the relevant information they have in their possession to the other side.\nOne way to obtain this information in Greenfield, California is to simply sit down with someone involved in the dispute, or with knowledge of some of the issues, and ask them questions. This can be done through a civil deposition, which is basically a Q&A session between a lawyer, and the person being deposed. A lawyer for the other side will also be present. The person being deposed is answering their questions under oath, just as if they were testifying in court. Because of this, it's important to get their statements on the record. For that purpose, a court reporter or videographer will be present.\nConducting A Civil Deposition in Greenfield, California\nIf the parties believe that a witness in Greenfield, California won't be able to show up in court to testify during trial, because of age, bad health, upcoming military deployment, possible incarceration, or any other reason, a deposition is a very good way to get their testimony on the record before the trial. Also, if they have to be questioned for several days, it is a good way to save the court's time.\nCivil Depositions in Greenfield, California can sometimes go on for days, and occasionally even weeks. If you are obligated to appear for a deposition in Greenfield, California, it can prove to be a significant inconvenience.\nBecause of this fact, the law in Greenfield, California permits witnesses who are appearing for depositions to be compensated for the expense associated with it. This includes reimbursement for gas, lodging, and food. They can also be paid a certain amount of money for every hour they testify, to compensate them for their time. However, this money can only be conditioned on the witness showing up and giving truthful testimony. Trying to condition it on the witness testifying in a certain way ceases to be compensation, and becomes bribery, which is a crime.\nIf you are called to a deposition in Greenfield, California, it's absolutely essential that you answer all the questions truthfully, to the best of your knowledge. When testifying in a deposition, you are under oath, just as you would be in open court. Deliberately lying in a deposition is perjury, which is a serious crime.\nHow Can A Greenfield, California Lawyer Help?\nIf you are directly involved in a lawsuit in Greenfield, California, and have to appear at a deposition, you should already be represented by a lawyer. It goes without saying that you should do whatever they advise you to do throughout the deposition.\nIf, on the other hand, you're not directly involved in the case, but have been subpoenaed to appear in a deposition as a witness in Greenfield, California, you may not need to hire a lawyer. The lawyers for both sides will probably prep you for the deposition, giving you an idea of what to expect.\nGreenfield Civil Procedure Attorneys\nGreenfield Courts Lawyers\nGreenfield Punitive Damages Attorneys\nGreenfield Commercial Litigation Lawyer\nGreenfield Filing a Lawsuit Attorney\nGreenfield Tort Lawyers Lawyer\nLitigation Lawyers in Castro Valley",

Breckinridge, former U.S. Vice President and fellow secessionist, to \"Black Me.\" Breckinridge, in military uniform, complies and begins to paint Davis's face with blacking. Around Breckinridge's feet coils a \"Copperhead,\" symbol of the Peace Democrats. Another snake winds around the broken, inverted staff of a Union flag.\nAt right a grinning black man sits on boxes of \"Butler's Blacking\" and holds a tin of blacking in his hand. The name \"Butler\" probably refers to Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, a figure despised in the South. Among other things, Butler had forced the Confederacy to recognize the military status of U.S. Negro troops. At left under the heading \"Memminger's Funeral Pile,\" bare-chested Confederate secretary of the treasury Christopher G. Memminger is partially submerged in a pile of C.S.A. bonds.

VTTI and ENNA will jointly expand and operate the newly built terminal in the Port of Ploce. The closing of the transaction is subject to closing conditions, including regulatory conditions. VTTI will manage the newly-completed tankage for clean petroleum products (CPP), and shall construct and operate further tank capacity alongside a significant new LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) storage capability, with leading-edge technology.\nPhase 1 of ATT is already constructed: in September 2016, the terminal completed the construction of 50,000 m3 capacity for clean petroleum products. Phase 2 will deliver over 200,000 m3 of petroleum storage, as well as up to 60,000 m3 of LPG storage; this will be the largest new LPG storage project in the heart of the Adriatic. In the future, additional space would allow the option of a Phase 3 project for further storage of minimum 100,000 m3 of petroleum products.\nGood news for the region\nThis growing terminal will play an important strategic role in strengthening the region\u2019s security of energy supply. It will also complement the prime location and deep water of the Port of Ploce, with significant extra storage capacity for CPP and LPG products.\nThe terminal will meet the highest standards of safety, with firefighting and vapour recovery technologies that meet the latest EU and global safety and environmental regulations.\nRob Nijst, CEO of VTTI, said: \u201cVTTI is very pleased to enter the Adriatic market, supported by our JV partner. The facility will enable the region\u2019s energy trade by developing a safe and efficient terminal facility. The growth of the city of Ploce and the region will gather even more speed in the near future, and we are there to support it.\u201d\nPavao Vujnovac \u2013 ENNA, said: \u201cWe are delighted to bring a reliable, strong partner into Croatia, with whom we have established excellent cooperation. Together, we will work on developing the potential of the Port of Plo\u010de as a major Mediterranean port. Through this investment, as with others, we are encouraging the development of Croatian resources in order to achieve influence in the region and improve the quality of life of the community in which we work.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "DIY: The Pollock Bag\nPosted in DIY\tby Ari\nWith summer being everywhere, it just seems right to spend as much time outside as possible\u2026so why not use some of that time for awesome DIY projects that are super easy, fast and show great results? Exactly- no excuses!\nThis one I got from the Pilot Episode of the TV show Carrie Diaries (not sure they stopped that show but it was supposed to be a prequel to Sex and the City), so it\u2019s not exactly my own idea but I\u2019m sure that you love it so here it goes!\nFor this one, you will need:\n\u2013 a small purse. Preferably a leather (fake or real) one, since it will make the nail polish stick best. A friend of mine used a lacquer bag and sadly realized after a few weeks that the paint started to come of.\n\u2013 nail polish. Whichever colors you want and as many as you wish. Make sure not to use the most expensive brands you have since it can easily use up a quarter of the bottle.\n\u2013 newspaper to cover the surface you\u2019re working on\nTime Frame: \u2013 10-15 mins\nSo, put the bag onto the newspaper and\u2026just start dripping the color. You can do circles, splashes, dots and squares, whatever you want. There are no rules, just own imagination, preference and chance. At first, my friend and I tried to splash the color onto the bag using the brush but realized quite soon that it wouldn\u2019t splash enough color for cool effects. Just use the bottle.\nAnd the final result might look something like this:\nThis is the bag my mom made today. When I tried it first, I left space on my bag and wrote something on it with nailpolish. Use lots of color for that to make the written part stand out clearly. My bag looks like that:\nSo, like I said- it\u2019s up to your own imagination, it will look great and unique either way. A great way to recognize a fellow Carrie fan and an even better way to stand out for the rest of the world.\nAight guys, get splashin!\nYou may have noticed, especially in our more recent posts, that my co-author is somewhat more comfortable sharing personal stories than I am. I shy away from it not because my personal life is boring, but rather because I\u2019ve had trouble putting myself \u201cout there\u201d with anything, unless I am talking to people I deeply care for and trust.\nSince there aren\u2019t so many people I have this very close and safe-feeling relationship with, these poor selected few tend to get long messages in crisis times, usually prefaced by something like \u201cSorry, I know you have a lot on your plate and I don\u2019t want to bother you, but\u2026\u201d. If they\u2019re close by I\u2019ll generally just hope that they can tell something is wrong and ask about it. I then usually say that I don\u2019t really want to talk about it, then end up talking about it for over an hour, while my poor friend is trying to say something that is different from the other fifteen times I\u2019ve had a crisis about the exact same thing.\nThe problem with these mini-crises is that they tend to be about something utterly minor that builds up to a huge and scary construct in my head. It\u2019s one of those days today. A small thing happened and my imagination has blown it out of proportion. (While I\u2019m writing the word \u201csmall\u201d, the panicky voice inside my head yells that it\u2019s not that small at all\u2026 see what I mean?).\nSometimes when this happens, I get panic attacks \u2013 not severe ones, but strong enough to cause a physical reaction. I can feel my heartbeat picking up, I have trouble breathing steadily, I\u2019m on the verge of crying (and sometimes I do cry), and more often than not, I\u2019ll get tension headaches and shoulder or neck pains eventually. The physical reaction scares me, even though it\u2019s nothing serious, but just the fact that something which happens purely in my mind can make my body react this way.\nMy usual reaction at this point is to curl up on my bed, pull the covers over my head and stay like this until my racing mind slows down. I tend to be a mess for the rest of the day, blow up at the slightest provocation or start crying uncontrollably when I drop a spoon hours later.\nI don\u2019t know what it is that I am so scared of.\nActually, that last sentence was a lie. I know exactly what I\u2019m scared of, and why there are specific situations that trigger this panic. But like I said before, I\u2019m hesitant about putting myself out there and I feel that this post is going out on enough of a limb without adding in my childhood stories. Suffice it to say, certain situations trigger my overactive imagination, situations which naturally occur in the life of a twenty-something with an uncertain future, a long-distance relationship, and career plans that are vague at best. These situations mostly revolve around uncertainty, and they aren\u2019t quickly resolved, they need time \u2013 you can\u2019t just create a career on a Wednesday night.\nRight now is a bad time for a panic attack. I\u2019m alone.\nHaving someone there to calm me down is incredibly helpful and often makes the worrying stop before it has time to become an actual panic. Having just me is a panic-amplifier. I\u2019m a very analytical person, but the rational side of my brain has no chance if it doesn\u2019t get outside support. So what else is there to do?\nI\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the only person on the planet who gets scared sometimes. I\u2019m sure that most of you who read this have had a freak-out over a minor issue at some point in your life. Part of the reason I decided to write this was because I\u2019m sure it will resonate with some of you.\nThe other part was that I was hoping by the end of it, I\u2019d be less scared. It didn\u2019t work this time. But over the course of the last few months, I\u2019ve found some things that help me. Writing is one of them. Another is hot showers. Really long, hot showers are possibly one of the best methods of releasing stress (and I know, I feel bad about long showers, too, but I don\u2019t do this all the time, just when I really need it). And last but not least\u2026 breathe. Long, slow, deep breaths. And remember, this too shall pass.\nanxiety, coping, fear, growing up, panic attack, uncertainty\tLeave a comment\nPosted in Deep in Thought, Postgrad, Roommate Stuff\tby Ari\nThey say when you\u2019re in a place of great confusion, frustration or stress, you should remind yourself of all the things that are good in your life. So, while still trying to figure out what to do about the grad school debacle, I\u2019ll do just that. This one is to my friends.\nI have great doubts in long-distance relationships, having come out of one that didn\u2019t end well a little while ago. So, yeah, I\u2019m biased, mind you. I had just realized that people are under so many influences day by day that it\u2019s really tough to make sure that, although both you and your partner grow and change, you change together and in the same direction. Assure that you\u2019re growing together and not apart. On top of that, I had always trusted in Facebook to be a reliable medium of staying in contact with old friends. While it definitely simplifies things, it can also easily paint a completely different picture of your live. I\u2019ve had several old high school friends assuming I had turned into an uptight, career-oriented person, based on pictures of me in a business attire or sitting in front of a(fairly earned) Macbook that showed up on Facebook at some point in my life. Of course you might say that, if friends are that biased, they aren\u2019t worth your time but it\u2019s always difficult to let go of people that have been in your life for a very, very long time. Incidents like that contributed to me thinking that long-distance of whatever kind is doomed to failure and it didn\u2019t make graduating from college any easier.\nI have, however, underestimated my college friends (sorry guys). When I got those really bad news on Monday, I didn\u2019t really have anyone but my parents nearby since my friends are all scattered across the globe. But for them, that was not an excuse not to be helpful, each in their own way. One was late for work because she immediately skyped me to rationally help me assess my options. My long-distance roommate (hmm, who might that be\u2026) stayed online and talked me through my trains of thoughts forbidding me to give up even though I just wanted to say \u201cScrew this sh**\u201d. Another friend, who is soon going to Manchester, gave me motivational speeches and information on studying in the UK. An old high school friend called me and gave me a breakdown of her expenses during her exchange semester in London. And, at the end of the day, I got this really awesome Cheer-up-Board from them, which made me cry and laugh and restore faith in humanity. Definitely check out the board, it might just also make your day brighter \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019m not saying all of that to show off my friends (although you are so worth showing off guys!) but just to remind you that friendships are important. Don\u2019t take them for granted and try to give back what you receive. Open up because only when others know your greatest struggles and dreams, they\u2019ll be able to support you. And heck, this whole process of growing up and getting where you want to get requires a LOT of support. So, I want to revoke my original statement about long-distance relationships: It\u2019s all a matter of effort on both sides, I think. And I know I\u2019m willing to go through a lot of effort (or cheer-up videos, pinterest boards and facebook messages because we are too broke to fly to each other in case of emergencies) to keep those friends in my life.\nSo yeah, reminding you of the good things in your life and actually writing it down really helps, try it if you feel a little down, check out the pinterest board, then get strawberries and sit in the sun with a book. Oh yeah, and hug your friends if you can \ud83d\ude42\nFriendship, long distance\tLeave a comment",

I didn\u2019t invent the field but my approach brought people together.\u201d\nShe provides a variety of services to police organizations including pre-employment and fitness for duty assessments, program development, and research consultation.\nDr. Cotton is also well known for her work in the area of police interactions with people with mental illnesses and received the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medal for her work in this area.\nDr. Cotton, who has taught at Queen\u2019s since 1986, says one of her proudest accomplishments is developing the TEMPO model (Training and Education about Mental Illness for Police Organizations). It provides a blueprint for Canadian law enforcement officers to help them interact with people with mental health challenges in the field.\nShe is Canada's only Diplomat in Police Psychology, an honour awarded by the Society for Policy and Criminal Psychology. Dr. Cotton has also worked extensively with the Mental Health Commission of Canada and with the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police.\nShe also talks about her work, in early 2000, that brought law enforcement and mental health professionals together in one room.\n\u201cWe convinced the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police to get involved and we hosted our first conference that featured half police officers and half mental health workers. It resulted in new programs and strategies for working with people with mental health challenges.\u201d\nThe official Order of Ontario ceremony took place on Feb. 27.\nDr. Cotton admits the whole process has been a bit overwhelming.\n\u201cThe whole experience has been very hard to get my head around. I\u2019m just a normal person. Receiving this honour is very exciting.\u201d\nThe Order of Ontario recognizes individuals whose exceptional achievement in their field have left a lasting legacy in the province, in Canada and beyond.\nOrder members come from all walks of life, represent diverse professions, and have played an important role in shaping our province.",

        "title": "How Hot Is Hell? \u2013 Lynda Rees",
        "raw_content": "So funny! I had to share.\nThe following is an actual question given on a University of Arizona chemistry midterm, and an actual answer turned in by a student.\nThe answer by this student was so \u2018profound\u2019 that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is,\nof course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well:\nFirst, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell\nand the rate at which they are leaving, which is unlikely. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave.\nTherefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let\u2019s look at the different religions that exist in the world today.\nMost of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these\nreligions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as\nthey are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell,\nbecause Boyle\u2019s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.\nIf we accept the postulate given to me by Sally during my Freshman year that, \u2018It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,\u2019 and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct\u2026. \u2026leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Sally kept shouting \u2018Oh my God.\u2019\nThis student received an A+ !!",

        "raw_content": "The New York Times was among the many sources recently reporting that the French data protection authority fined Google about $57 million for \u201cnot properly disclosing to users how data is collected across its services \u2013 including its search engine, Google Maps and You Tube \u2013 to present personalized advertisements.\u201d\nIt\u2019s the largest penalty given for violating the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). According to the Times, it \u201cshows that regulators are following through on a pledge to use the rules to push back against internet companies whose businesses depend on collecting data.\u201d\nThe ruling hits at Google\u2019s basic practice of turning user data into carefully targeted ads. France\u2019s CNIL, its data protection group, said Google didn\u2019t get proper consent from users before processing their data.\nThe article says that U.S. policymakers are closely watching Europe\u2019s experience as a U.S. federal law is possibly under consideration. ARMA International continues to follow these developments closely.\nSoo Kang, of Zasio Enterprises, and a member of ARMA\u2019s content editorial board, provides the following commentary on the news item:\n\u201cWhile this fine under the GDPR is the largest to date, the significance is not the amount of the fine itself, but the message sent through one of the biggest companies in the world. Even though Google is appealing the decision, the ruling places companies on notice that the data protection authorities are ready to strongly enforce the terms of the regulation. As data protection authorities take note of CNIL\u2019s actions, and complaints against other tech giants await resolution, companies must take stock of their respective data privacy practices and assure that it is not merely a paper framework for compliance. Inability to demonstrate effective implementation only serves to expose companies to risk, which is expanding with the ripple effect of GDPR influencing change to privacy regimes around the world.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Editorial: LDP's self-contradictions emerge in free education constitutional clause draft\nThe ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has basically approved a draft of a constitutional clause on the improvement of education which had been under debate in the party's Headquarters for the Promotion of Revision to the Constitution.\nUnder the proposal, a third paragraph stating that the government \"must endeavor to improve the environment for education\" would be added to Article 26, which provides for the right to receive education.\nChild poverty has become a social problem in Japan. The government must strive to ensure that everybody enthusiastic about learning can receive education equally. However, the Constitution is not at fault for the country's failure to achieve this goal.\nDebate within the LDP on revisions to constitutional provisions for education gained momentum after Prime Minister Shinzo Abe proposed the matter in May 2017 along with amending war-renouncing Article 9 to provide for the existence of the Self-Defense Forces (SDF).\nBy agreeing to opposition Nippon Ishin's insistence that education be made free of charge, the LDP apparently aimed to gain the opposition party's cooperation for amending Article 9. Nippon Ishin has proposed to add a third paragraph to Article 26 to stipulate that \"education from preschool to higher education shall be free of charge,\" expanding the current constitutional guarantee of a free elementary and junior high school education -- which is compulsory -- to cover high school and university.\nHowever, the LDP had previously had no such intention, as evidenced by the party's lambasting of the previous Democratic Party of Japan-led administration's policy to make high school education free as \"pork-barreling without philosophy.\"\nWhen the LDP's constitutional reform headquarters began discussing the issue, it faced the problem of how to secure financial resources to cover the cost. Even if the LDP were to achieve the goal of free high school and university education, it could give rise to inequality depending on whether people advance to university or not. After all, the headquarters stopped short of incorporating making higher education free in a summary of points of contention on constitutional revisions, which the organization worked out at the end of last year.\nStill, in a bid to win understanding from Nippon Ishin, the constitutional revision headquarters included a paragraph in its draft stating that there shall be no discrimination in education for economic reasons. However, Article 14 of the current Constitution, which provides for equality under law, already states that \"there shall be no discrimination in political, economic, or social relations.\"\nMoreover, the Basic Act on Education clearly provides for equal opportunity in education as a principle based on the Constitution, even if it is not written into the supreme law.\nThe LDP obviously needs cooperation from Nippon Ishin in proposing a draft of a new Constitution in the Diet to secure enough votes for revision. However, the LDP has proposed to incorporate a vague phrase on the principle of equal opportunity in education in the Constitution apparently because it cannot accept making higher education free. If so, the LDP deserves criticism that it is using Article 26 as a tool for revising Article 9.\nNippon Ishin panned the LDP's proposal and is demanding that free higher education be incorporated in the supreme law.\nThese moves highlight the LDP's self-contradictions, as the party continues to discuss constitutional revision almost solely in terms of political maneuvering.",

Naturals \u2013 3 ways she is... \u27a1\nYour hot mess: No you can\u2019t serve all clients\nNo you can\u2019t serve all clients. I\u2019m just want you to STOP believing you can market to everyone. Here\u2019s what you can do instead.\nI\u2019ve heard it a thousand times \u2013 \u201cMalla, my service is perfect for E.V.E.R.Y.B.O.D.Y\u201d.\nNo it\u2019s not. You can\u2019t sell to everyone.\nBut I get it. You need cash flow. You want to establish your business name. So you\u2019ll sell to anyone who is willing to buy.\nLet me recommend you try it this way: Pick one market. That you know and enjoy working with. And serve them well.\nNow don\u2019t get it twisted. I didn\u2019t say you couldn\u2019t sell to anyone you wanted.\nI\u2019m just want you to STOP believing you can market to everyone. You are spending your too precious time and resources to prove it is possible.\nBut, it\u2019s craziness! People buy for what they want. Not always what they need. And you, my friend might be too logical on this one and fall into the need category.\nLet\u2019s look an example of how this works. Why does a family buy a SUV over a min-van? Logic suggests the mini van would allow the average family to save more money AND provide them more space.\nWhy the SUV? Because it\u2019s cool.\nIt has nothing to do with income. Because the family could buy both.\nIt has nothing to do with the bells and whistles. Because both vehicles usually have many amenities.\nIt has to do with how the SUV makes them FEEL.\nAnd it\u2019s not about judgments here. I drive a SUV so I am outing my own importance of the cool factor.\nBut it emphasizes the point \u2013 understand what your market wants before you start selling.\nTweet: Understand what your market wants before you start selling http://ctt.ec/a682e+\nFor example, if you want the mid management corporate market, you need to attend $200 networking events and national conferences. Why? Because that\u2019s where they hang out and will spend time and resources.\nYou can\u2019t get away with going to the free happy hour and $5 admission and hope to meet people in this market.\nYou would also need to have visuals to attract this client that are in line with their interests. Going after corporate attorneys? Your marketing better have a traditional rather than modern/trendy look if you want them to give you a second glance.\nSo before you think you can serve everyone, I encourage you to pick the market that best represents your strengths. Who loves you most? Who are you most interested in? Once you\u2019ve narrowed it down, you can think about the places you\u2019ll need to visit to market to them. Your online and print marketing campaigns will be much easier to develop.\nAnd you\u2019ll save a ton of time and money in the long run!",

        "raw_content": "Smith & Associates Real Estate Lists One of Florida's Most Significant Homes\nTAMPA, Fla., Feb. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- \"The Oaks,\" a magnificent sprawling country estate situated on Lake Thonotosassa is on the market for $22 million. It is one of the largest homes in Hillsborough County. With meticulous care to every element of the architectural design, The Oaks is one of Florida's most significant homes to be built within the last century. The home has \u00bc mile of lakefront property on Hillsborough County's largest lake and is only twenty minutes from downtown Tampa. With six hundred trees including almost four hundred mature live oaks and twenty-one Italian Cypress trees, imported and transplanted to create an idyllic landscape, \"The Oaks\" is a natural fit for the estate name and incomparable to any home in Tampa Bay.\nThis French -Normandy country style gated manor was designed by the award-winning Cooper Johnson Smith Architects and built by Alvarez Homes. The construction process took 4 years and was completed in 2012. The collaboration between the owners, the architects and the builder is evident in the hand-picked, out-sourced materials from around the world and contributes to the refined details and sense of warmth that is rarely found in homes built today.\nSurrounded by handcrafted rolling hills with manicured lawns, gardens and trees, the grounds encompass a long private brick driveway, main house, 2-story guest house, antique collector garage that can hold up to 20 cars, workshop, well-appointed pool house, gatehouse, horse barn with grazing pasture, indoor and outdoor saltwater pools, expansive loggia's, 2-story boathouse, race track, and 1 mile jogging trail. 4 contiguous properties were acquired to form the 36-acre estate with 1,278 feet of lake frontage. The main residence with elevator access to all levels comprises 4-stories with 6 bedrooms, 8 full and 7 half baths, plus 7-car garage. The Oaks offers a world-class men's lounge, chef's kitchen with finest cabinetry/appliances, master suite with sitting room and his/her bathrooms/closets, grand salon, craft room, fitness room, steam and sauna rooms, massage area, bowling alley, an indoor heated saltwater pool, game room, 3 fireplaces, and magical night lighting.\nThe entirety of the compound features 8-bedrooms, 12-bathrooms, and 14-half baths for 36,361 SF of air-conditioned space and 42,782 SF under roof. In addition, there is a separate 11,000 SF air-conditioned state of the art workshop with 2 half baths and a gatehouse with 1 half bath.\n\"The Oaks is an architectural masterpiece of epic proportions, and achieves the rare ability for a home of this size to feel warm, intimate, and inviting,\" says Mary Pond, listing agent for the Pond Gunning team at Smith & Associates Real Estate.\nWith a passion for details, the owners traveled the world to lovingly craft a home that has splendor and warmth. That warmth is felt in the design of the open layout kitchen featuring top-of-the-line appliances from Perlick with an elegant Imperial blue granite on the kitchen countertops and a backsplash that stands out as an aesthetic centerpiece. The most notable appliance in the kitchen is the 72\" LaCornue range with double vaulted ovens and large French top. Oak's kitchen also features Wolf island oven, Subzero Refrigerator and wine cooler, ice maker, 2 chill drawers, wood beams, and oversized pantry.\nTaylor & Taylor Partnerships designed the interiors of this country manor with timeless, meticulous detailing and input from the owners that establishes The Oaks as an iconic home in the tradition of some of the most admired homes in the world. Details like custom hand-painted silk wallpaper, herringbone pattern wood floors in the men's lounge and grand bedrooms with spacious dressing room and closets, make the home versatile for spacious living, intimate family nights or more formal entertaining.\nLit by almost one thousand lights, including an underwater light in the front fountain and the boat dock area, this self-containing property and home is magical at night. Phenomenal views of the countryside and lake vista, create the backdrop for a home that is relaxing and comfortable.\nThe home is owned by Don Wallace, founder of Lazy Days RV, and his wife Erika.\nTo download pictures, visit The Oaks website.\nAbout Smith & Associates Real Estate\nFounded in 1969, Smith & Associates Real Estate is Tampa Bay's largest independent and locally-owned real estate brokerage with a commitment to exceptional service and superior market knowledge.

        "title": "Should We Feel Guilty About Using the Cloud Now?",
        "raw_content": "Should We Feel Guilty About Using the Cloud Now?\nIt's getting harder and harder to find blameless activities these days.\nFor those of us who thought our online lives were fairly environmentally friendly \u2014 buying products on Amazon rather than driving to the store, streaming a movie on Netflix rather than buying or renting a physical disk with all its attendant packaging \u2014 this weekend's New York Times story on data centers served as a rude reminder that all of this bit usage comes at a growing cost, and an increasingly dirty cost.\nData centers waste on average more than 90% of the energy they suck from the grid, the Times found, in research conducted with consultants at McKinsey. Worldwide, data centers use 30 billion watts, or as much power as 30 nuclear power stations \u2014 a number that is growing faster than ever.\nThen there are the massive diesel generators these data centers are forced to keep running, just as backup power in case of the slightest outage. Each of them could power a mid-sized town by themselves. The fumes they're spewing out night and day make these server farms some of the top polluters in Silicon Valley, and it's hardly the only area where this is becoming an issue.\nThat product you bought on Amazon supports a company that was cited 24 times in north Virginia for running generators without even the most basic permit.\nRight now, the problem is relatively small; data centers account for just 2% of total energy consumption in the U.S., according to one estimate. But it won't stay that way for long. Internet storage and consumption is growing exponentially. Users added 1.8 trillion GB to the virtual world in 2011 alone, according to IDC.\nThat all has to be fed by new server farms. Not surprisingly, spending on cloud infrastructure has doubled to $4 trillion since 2005.\nThe scary part of this is that data centers are becoming a kind of shadow economy \u2014 hard to measure, utterly unchecked by any sort of oversight. Not only is there no government watchdog whatsoever for data centers, but the government can't even tell you how much power it is sucking down for its own servers.\nOne thing the government can tell us: Earth just had the all-time warmest June-August land surface temperatures on record. Indeed, we haven't had a below-average month since 1985.\nSEE ALSO: What is Apple Building in North Carolina? [PIC]\nUltimately, of course, these centers only exist to feed a consumer need. But that consumer need, in turn, is being fed by the notion of the cloud \u2014 which, if we think of it at all, sounds like an airy, magical place. It stores everything and delivers everything, and we don't need to worry too much about how the sausage gets made. Right?\nI'm certainly no saint when it comes to cloud usage. I'm a moderate to heavy user of Netflix, Hulu and HBO Go. I stream YouTube videos throughout the day, some of them not even related to \"Gangnam Style.\" I pay Apple to store nearly 25,000 songs and videos on servers somewhere so that I can download them on all my devices; for all I know, each song could be stored on its own server.\nWell, not quite. But not far off, either: Part of the problem is that server design is massively inefficient, with each server designated to as small a task as possible to avoid unnecessary crashes.\nAnd here's the larger part of the problem: We're not demanding anything better from our data providers. We're demanding always-on, super-speedy service from the cloud, because we have no idea of the true cost. And the tech industry isn't about to tell you.\n\"This is an industry dirty secret,\" one top tech executive told the Times anonymously. \"No one wants to be the first to say mea culpa.\"\nSEE ALSO: Facebook is Better for the Planet Than Google\nIt's a shame that there isn't more discussion of this problem because ultimately, we can do more than just feel guilty about it. Why? Because the fact is, not all server farms are created equal.\nExhibit A is Facebook, which set out to make its server farms as green as possible \u2014 and to pass on the secret of doing so to anyone that wanted it.\nThe social network gave this initiative a rather uninspiring name, the Open Compute Project. But the results have been hugely inspiring. Facebook's first data center turned out to be 38% more efficient than the server farm it was previously leasing, at 24% of the cost.\nThe more companies we push to follow Facebook's lead, the more we can reduce those massive redundancies in the cloud. We can have our digital cake and eat it too.\nTopics: data centers, Dev & Design, Science, opinion, Social Good, Tech",

        "raw_content": "Comments Off on Pomodoro\nAfter having a pretty hectic work schedule the last few weeks, and after reading Anthony\u2019s post on the Pomodoro Technique, I thought I\u2019d try it. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll keep using it long term, but for now, I see a few benefits. Here\u2019s what I\u2019ve noticed after a day.\nThe first thing is that it\u2019s a lot easier to get myself to stop working. Hopefully this will translate into being able to predict when I\u2019m going to get home, farther in advance than \u201cI\u2019m leaving now.\u201d It also gives me periodic interrupts throughout the day when I can check email, read a blog post, get water, use the restroom, check the kanban board, etc.\nI noticed how much time I spend on things. For example, yesterday I decided to transcribe some notes from paper into our work tracking system. It took almost an entire Pomodoro. Having the time box gave me pause \u2014 was it worth writing up what I was working on? I think this could help me become more self-aware, better able to recognize when I\u2019m wasting time, in the future.\nIt was also nice to focus on one thing at a time. My work schedule usually is \u201ccharge!\u201d That means work furiously on whatever comes to mind. It doesn\u2019t make me relaxed, and probably doesn\u2019t make me more effective.\nI also noticed that I\u2019m not very good at sticking to the time limits. I usually stop my pomodoro after 25 minutes and 16 seconds. I usually start the next one 15-30 minutes later.\nAnd, when people come over and ask me for help, I\u2019m still pretty likely to stop what I\u2019m doing (i.e. interrupt my Pomodoro) and help them.\nFinally, I feel really silly walking around thinking, \u201cgotta keep doing this pomodoro thing\u201d which, in english-only, is \u201cgotta keep doing this tomato thing\u201d. So I have a tomato timer on my apple computer. Whatever. It seems to help.",

        "raw_content": "If you could say whatever you wanted to your passengers, what would you tell them? Today we\u2019re going to talk about 12 things that you might want to say to your passengers, things that you want your passengers to know. Stick around at the end of the video. I\u2019m going to share with you a 13th item, something one of my passengers said, \u201cWould you please tell passengers this as well?\u201d\nJay Cradeur is going to talk about things you think but you may not say to your passengers, and you may not say it to your passengers because you want to maintain your high rating, and you don\u2019t want to get deactivated for being too forward or too abrupt or too rude or for being too darned honest.\nWhat we did is we asked some of our readers to throw us some suggestions of things they would like to say to their passengers. Let\u2019s get into the list. We\u2019ll start out with number one.\nMy time is valuable. Be on time because my time is valuable too. How many times have you been waiting and you\u2019ve been frustrated and you just don\u2019t say anything when they get in the car? Because, well, you just wait. You just wait for the passenger to get in the car. Driver Douglas F. made this recommendation, and I sure get it. Our time is valuable too. Let\u2019s go to number two.\nI make money when I\u2019m driving, not waiting\nThis is my pet peeve that passengers don\u2019t seem to understand that we don\u2019t make much money when we\u2019re sitting, waiting. We only make money when we\u2019re driving, and if we can drive at 70 miles an hour on the freeway, that\u2019s when we\u2019re making the most money. Come on. Just don\u2019t request for a car until you\u2019re ready to go. It\u2019s really not that complicated. Let\u2019s go to number three.\nNumber three comes from Driver Joseph. Joseph says, \u201cWe\u2019d really appreciate a tip.\u201d When Uber started, they told everybody that the tips were included in our regular fare, the rate. Uber\u2019s people never ever tipped. Lyft, they do tip, and you get a lot more tips when you drive for Lyft, but it would be great to say to everybody, \u201cHey, we appreciate tips.\u201d It\u2019s a big part of our earnings and give it to us. Show us the love.\nStops are for picking up or dropping off passengers, not errands\nDriver Michael L. says that multiple stops are for picking up and dropping off passengers. They\u2019re not for you to go shopping. Yes, absolutely. I hate multiple stops. I don\u2019t like them ever, but sometimes it\u2019s happened a few times. I took one woman to a bank. She spent 10 minutes inside of the bank before coming out. I took a guy to the post office. He waited in line for like 15 minutes, came back out. That\u2019s not what it\u2019s meant for.\nKnow where to get picked up at the airport\nAt the San Francisco airport, we pick up at the destinations area, and the passenger is downstairs in the arrivals or they\u2019re in the wrong terminal altogether. I\u2019d like to say if you\u2019re at the airport, it\u2019s really hard for us to stop and wait for you, so get it right. Get it right and show up at the right place.\nBe ready at the address listed in the app\nNumber six comes from Joseph A. He says, and I\u2019m going to read this for you, \u201cLook and be ready at the address that is listed in the app.\u201d He goes on to say, \u201cPassengers need to be more conscious of where their pickup pin address is located. Too many times, passengers just use the automatic GPS location and the address is incorrect.\u201d That is so true. How many times have I gone to pick somebody up and then I look across the street and there\u2019s somebody waving and I got to go across three lanes of traffic to get over to pick them up. That\u2019s a really good one. Let\u2019s go to the next one.\nI am not your servant\nWe are partners in this deal. I get really tired of passengers, mostly it\u2019s Uber passengers if I\u2019m completely honest. They treat us like we\u2019re servants. They speak dismissively to us. They\u2019re not friendly. They\u2019re kind of rude. I would certainly like to say, \u201cI\u2019m not your servant, dude. I am just a guy like you and we\u2019re in this together.\u201d\nSend us the gate code or other details for difficult pickups\nNumber eight comes to us from driver David R. He says to tell the passengers that when it comes time for a pickup at an apartment complex, please send us the gate code. How many times has it happened where you pull up to an address and it\u2019s a big apartment complex and there\u2019s a big gate and you\u2019re stuck there and you just got to wait? Then, you got to call the passenger and say, \u201cCan you please let me in or are you coming out?\u201d It just wastes time. That\u2019s a really good one as well.\nBe ready on the sidewalk if you request a ride on a busy street\nNumber nine is one of mine. Number nine is if you live on a busy street, please be ready when I get there to pick you up. There\u2019s a busy street in San Francisco called Oak. It\u2019s about five lanes across, and cars just zip down this road. There\u2019s no place to pull over. There\u2019s no parking on the sides. If you\u2019re not ready, I\u2019m going to have to either stop and wait for you, in which case all these cars are going to be honking at me and I\u2019m going to have to drive all the way around the block and try again. If you\u2019re on a busy street and you know it\u2019s a busy street, be ready to get picked up.\nDon\u2019t have loud phone conversations in shared rides\nIf you\u2019re in an Uber Pool or Lyft Shared, so there\u2019s other passengers in the car with you, don\u2019t have loud phone conversations. It\u2019s just rude and disrespectful. Hold off. Have the call later. We don\u2019t all want to hear your conversation and then no one else can talk.\nStop telling me how to drive\nI am a professional. Backseat drivers who tell you when to turn right and when to turn left and when to do this and when to do that can be very, very irritating. We have a GPS. My God, I\u2019ve done 19,000 trips in San Francisco. I know where we\u2019re going, so you just be the passenger and enjoy the ride and let me take you where we\u2019re going. I promise I\u2019ll get you there as quickly as possible.\nPlease respect our cars\nNumber 12 comes from a driver named Shu Yang. He says, \u201cPlease be respectful of my car.\u201d I can still remember I had a woman who bought a bunch of scratchers. That\u2019s like a lottery thing in San Francisco and in California. You scratch them off to see what the number is underneath. She was scratching all this stuff off and just putting it all over the backseat of my car. Very rude, very rude. People who eat food in the back of your car and it smells up the car. Not Nice. So please respect my car.\nBonus: What do passengers think?\nI was asking my passengers. I said, \u201cWhat else do you think I should say to passengers for this article that I\u2019m writing?\u201d They said, \u201cHow about you tell passengers not to leave their trash in the car?\u201d That got me to thinking about how many times I\u2019ve offered people a little bit of water and then later in the day, I noticed in the back seat that the empty water is just thrown on the floor. My car is not your trash can. Just take it with you and leave.\nWhat do you think? Are there more things that you want to tell your passengers? If there are, go ahead and put them in the comments. I\u2019d love to hear about it.\nThanks for watching. This Jay Cradeur with the Rideshare Guy. If you haven\u2019t subscribed yet to the Rideshare Guy\u2019s YouTube channel, by all means, do and then you\u2019ll be notified every time there\u2019s a new video.

        "raw_content": "business, Ireland, marketing, mentoring, social media marketing, strategy, traditional marketing\nSocial Media \u2013 v- Traditional Marketing\nJanuary 24, 2019 February 14, 2019 MentorUs Business Solutions\nIf you are running a successful business you will know that good marketing isn\u2019t just about choosing the appropriate market or having a high quality product. Although important, it\u2019s also about developing and using the right kind of marketing techniques in order to reach your potential customers and converting those leads into sales!\nBy gaining a greater understanding of social media \u2013v- traditional marketing, a business owner will be in a better position to choose which marketing method is appropriate to their business and how it is should be applied.\nWhen operating a business, it is imperative you remain ahead of your competition. Which means you can longer rely on outdated marketing methods. You need to look beyond and understand how you can leverage social media to grow your reach.\nLet\u2019s Understand Traditional Marketing\nEveryone has been exposed to traditional marketing at some point or other as it\u2019s seen as the conventional mode of marketing that helps to reach out to a large audience with various offline advertising and promotional methods. Traditional marketing has been around for over 100 years, radio ads, printed flyers or newspaper adverts are still the main methods used.\nThere are many benefits to traditional marketing, especially when the methods include print, as the audience has a hard copy of material of which they can read or browse through over and over again. Interesting, neuroscience avidly supports the benefits of hard copy marketing!\nBut the downside to traditional marketing is the limited opportunities for interaction between the medium used and the customers. Its main focus is on providing information to the public at large, informing them about the brand in the hope that potential customers will engage with the brand. Also the downside is that print and radio advertisements still remain very costly for a business.\nAlthough traditional marketing may have evolved over the past few decades, the fundamental aspects remain the same. The selling techniques that we use today heavily rely on Kotler\u2019s four P\u2019s of marketing: product, price, place and promotion.\nBy leveraging the four P\u2019s of marketing, a business can actually lead its prospects and customers through any sales funnel and see favourable results!\nLet\u2019s Talk Social Media Marketing\nIn a nutshell, social media marketing is the use of various social media platforms and websites to promote a product or service. Digital marketing encompasses all marketing efforts that use an electronic device or the internet. Businesses utilise digital channels such as search engines, social media, email, and their website to connect with current and potential customers.\nThere are so many benefits to social media marketing. The most important being the ability to directly interact with your audience, in fact, interaction is encouraged and is the key to success. Traditional marketing methods don\u2019t allow for audience interaction. Social media marketing engages and encourages your customers and followers to take action, visit your website, read about your products and services, rate them, buy them and provide feedback which is visible to your potential customers.\nIt is also a very cost effective method of marketing although some businesses invest in paid online advertising, however the cost is still cheaper compared to traditional marketing methods.\nData and results are easily monitored and evaluated, allowing the business to quantify a return on their investment. With Google Analytics and the insights tools offered by most social media channels, you can check on your campaigns at any time. Unlike traditional marketing methods, you can see in real time what is or is not working for your business online and you can adapt and change your approach very quickly to improve your results.\nRegardless of the size or age of your business, you can compete with any competitor once you have a solid digital marketing strategy in operation. Traditionally a smaller retailer could struggle to match the significant marketing budgets available to its larger competitors. A professional, well designed and well thought out website with a smooth customer journey, fantastic customer engagement and follow up service, is the winner. A well maintained website with quality content targeting the needs and adding value to your target audience can generate sales leads and opportunities. The same can be said for utilising social media channels.\nSocial Media or Traditional Marketing?\nThe world of marketing has changed in a major way and social media has played a significant role in that transition, as we continue to witness an enormous shift in the way we buy, sell and advertise. There are few places this shift had a more powerful influence than in communication and commerce. Consumers are changing the way they shop and require access to products, services and information on a 24/7 basis.\nIt is evident that social media marketing is a less expensive way to get your message out to your potential customers in a very efficient manner. You\u2019ll pay a fraction of the traditional media price to reach the same number of people and more and you\u2019ll be reaching the audience you want. Social media marketing, if carried out correctly, can over time cultivate a culture of trust. Traditional marketing forces an opinion on a buyer in the hope that over time they will achieve sales.\nYou can use social media marketing to give your ideal customer an opportunity to learn everything they need to know about your offerings before they buy. This in turn enhances your brand and you\u2019ll also get the added bonus of receiving feedback from your customers through online reviews and testimonials.\nIn my opinion, social media marketing is the best option for anyone running a small to medium enterprise, and developing an online presence is crucial to ensure business success.\nFor more information, contact MentorUs Business Solutions today!\nTagged blogs, branding, business, customers, Ireland, marketing, mentoring, sales, small business, social media, social media marketing, success, traditional marketing, website\nPrevious post3 Ways to Kick Start Your Christmas Marketing!\nNext postHow to Make Money on Instagram.",

        "raw_content": "Spaces and Traces 2016, Historic Water Tower Neighborhood\nOn Saturday morning, May 14th, we went on the annual Historic Milwaukee \u201cSpaces and Traces\u201d tour of homes, which this year was in the \u201cHistoric Water Tower Neighborhood.\u201d This area of the city is on the north side along the lakeshore, and, for purposes of this tour, was bounded on the north by East Hartford Avenue, and on the south by East Windsor Place.\nWe began the tour at the Joseph and Charlotte Friend house on N. Hackett Ave., which was a handsome and spacious 1896 Queen Anne style home, and continued to the Emmons E. Chapin house on N. Summit, also a Queen Anne built in 1894, and the John F. Dahlman \u201cInvestment\u201d house, a Federal revival, also on Summit. (For these tours, the houses are designated by the names of the original owners/residents. The current owners remain anonymous for privacy\u2019s sake.)\nWe then went up to the north edge of the tour area and got to see one of the real jewels of the tour, the Orrin W. and Harriet H. Robertson house on North Lake Drive. If you know Milwaukee, you know that North Lake Drive is one of the most prestigious addresses, and the site of many fine homes. The Robertson house is such a one.\nThe house was built in 1912 after the Robertsons had toured France, and designed by noted Milwaukee architect Alexander Eschweiler after the Chateau d\u2019Azay-le-Rideau at the Robertson\u2019s request. Built between 1518 and 1527, this ch\u00e2teau is considered one of the foremost examples of early French renaissance architecture.\nAlthough for about twenty years from the 1960\u2019s to the 1980\u2019s the house belongs to various orders of nuns and used as a retreat, the house has been carefully restored and furnished with thematically appropriate pieces. A striking feature of the design is the corner turrets, which give the house a very fairy-tale air. The side facing the lake has a very clear view out to the horizon across a long lawn stretching to the bluff edge.\nNext, we visited the W.B Rubin Duplex on N. Summit Ave. This 1911 Prairie Style building is about as different from the Robertson house as can be, with its modernistic flat roof and rectangular lines. Now a condominium, the two units have been decorated in different styles by the respective owners, but both in ways congenial to the building. The first floor in particular was furnished with Prairie-style furniture. The upper unit had combined the original flat with the third-floor servant\u2019s quarters, which were used as a very spacious and ultra-modern master suite.\nAfter that, we went down to the south end of the tour area to see the Elizabeth Black house, which shows influences of French Provincial design. Built in 1926 for the then elderly spinster, the house incorporates an elevator, which is still functional. This is also one of the first houses in Milwaukee I have seen that boasts a purpose-built wine cellar (although it was not likely noted as that on the Prohibition-Era blueprints). The rooms we were allowed to see were spacious and beautiful.\nOur final stop was the \u201ctavern room\u201d of the Becker-Fitch house on E Back Bay Street, another property overlooking the lake. This room, designed and decorated to look like a rustic Irish pub, was added to the 1895 home in 1923, as a \u201cden\u201d. It has a separate entrance down the drive to the back, and was well situated for \u201cdiscreet\u201d entertaining.\nThis year\u2019s tour was particularly good, and we enjoyed it (despite the unseasonably chilly weather).",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s All Move to Europe! August 29, 2011\nFiled under: Attentive Wife,Life,Mommy Dearest \u2014 MomVersusCareer @ 11:42 am\nWhy not? Europeans seem to embrace life and view working as a way to fund their enjoyment of life. Most Europeans get up to six weeks of paid vacation. Many of my international business acquaintances live in Europe. I envy their ability to take two weeks of vacation and actually go on a vacation.\nLast week, a friend of mine sent me a link to an article by Darren Hardy that states the United States \u201cranks No. 1 in depression and mental health problems\u201d because many Americans do not use their vacation days.\nAccording to this article, Americans failed to use 483 million vacation days in 2007 (based on results obtained by the Harris Interactive research group). According to the article, that is \u201cmore than any other industrialized nation.\u201d\nI don\u2019t know about you, but I don\u2019t want to work my life away. Yes, work is rewarding and gives us a sense of purpose and achievement, but our places of employment should be one of many avenues in which we seek fulfillment in our lives.\nI would like to use my vacation time to travel, relax, forget about work, recharge, enjoy spending time with my family and enjoy life.\nSo, I say we all move to Europe! I think we would all be much more content and productive.\nDo you use your vacation days, or do you \u2018lose\u2019 them?\nTurning the Page August 11, 2011\nTags: family, homesick, life, searching, turning the page, uncertainty\nIf you\u2019re in a long-distance relationship, I suggest deciding where you\u2019re going to live before you get married. It\u2019s a minor detail.\nTwo days after Jason and I got married, we moved to Minnesota. It was basically a race to see who got a job first. Jason won, so we moved to St. Cloud, MN. Had I found a job in Indiana first, we would likely be living there.\nI don\u2019t regret moving away from my family and my hometown, but adjusting to married life and a new city where we knew only Jason\u2019s brother was difficult for me. Thankfully, we found a church and fostered some great friendships while we lived in St. Cloud. After our daughter Lia was born, I began to feel homesick. I wanted so badly for my family to spend time with her, but the distance made that difficult. Indiana may be only a few states away, but it\u2019s a long drive.\nBefore Lia\u2019s first birthday, she had pneumonia three times and was hospitalized twice. We had no family nearby to help us during that time, so we decided to move closer to Jason\u2019s family in northwestern Minnesota; Thief River Falls to be exact.\nI was less than thrilled about this move, but at the time it seemed like the most logical choice. We needed help and we needed family.\nFast forward four years and nine months to today. To my surprise, our family has flourished here. Jason and I have great jobs. He\u2019s been able to go back to school to pursue his dream. Lia is too smart for her own good and extremely funny and caring. She has had the benefit of living near at least one set of grandparents and a large extended family for most of her life.\nIt\u2019s great, but\u2026\nI\u2019m still homesick. It\u2019s become increasingly difficult to visit my family in Indiana and return to Minnesota without getting misty-eyed during our goodbyes. My parents are coming to visit this weekend. I can\u2019t wait to see them again, but I wish we were going to Indiana with them when they leave.\nI\u2019m not sure exactly what I\u2019m homesick for. I like my hometown, but I don\u2019t feel a pull to move back there because of it. I would be okay moving anywhere as long as my family was within an acceptable driving distance.\nMaybe I\u2019m not really homesick. Maybe I\u2019m searching for something to fill a void, to meet a need I don\u2019t yet understand.\nI\u2019m not sure what I\u2019m searching for or what\u2019s missing from my life, if anything.\nI don\u2019t really have a closing for this post. It\u2019s like I just finished a riveting chapter in a book and I\u2019m about to turn the page but have no idea what will happen in the next chapter.\nGuess I\u2019ll have to turn the page to find out.\nSpreading Manure (Not Literally\u2026Well, Kind of) July 20, 2011\nFiled under: Attentive Wife,Mommy Dearest \u2014 MomVersusCareer @ 4:32 pm\nTonight, Lia and I will be representing the local hardware store/implement dealership in our annual county parade. Our mode of transportation? A brand-new, shiny manure spreader. My life is now complete.\nRiding around in a manure spreader is not how I spend most of my evenings, nor would it be on my \u2018bucket list\u2018 if I had one. So, why did I agree to ride in a brand-new, shiny manure spreader? First, my husband, Jason, assured me there has never been any manure in this particular spreader\u2026yet. Secondly and most importantly, quality time with Lia and Jason, who has been working day and night (literally) at his full-time job and at his internship at the local sheriff\u2019s department for the past few weeks. We haven\u2019t seen him much and his absence is taking its toll on me and Lia. It\u2019s temporary, but it seems like it will last much longer than a few weeks.\nSo, tonight we shall ride in a manure spreader, but we will do it together, as a family. Hopefully without spreading any manure. It will be memorable if nothing else. Ha!",

        "raw_content": "5 Kinds Of Coworkers Who Can Mess You Up\nAnyone employed for a period of time can tell you that when everyone gets along in the workplace, the harmony is truly something to behold.\nTasks become easier, problems get solved with minimal hassle, and in general, it\u2019s just that much easier for you to make that commute every day. However, even in these nicer settings, there can still sometimes be some red flags. Black Enterprise has recently put together a list of 5 co-worker profiles that you likely want to avoid getting too close to, even with a nice work environment.\nFirst on the list is \u201cThe Gossiper.\u201d While it\u2019s tempting to get close to the office gossip to see what is going on and perhaps infuse a little excitement into your day, you may want to hold back. If this gossip is willing to talk about someone else, they may talk to someone else about you. The best way to avoid getting entangled in anything is simply to play dumb. A nice smile and a nod before going about your business is a good way to stay on good terms with your workplace gossiper without hearing anything you shouldn\u2019t.\nNext is \u201cThe Pessimist.\u201d There\u2019s nothing wrong with constructive criticism. In fact, it may be to the company benefits to make measured suggestions to improve your company\u2019s process. However, there\u2019s a big difference between complaining to improve and complaining to complain. Being in a pessimist\u2019s orbit for too long not only rarely leads anywhere helpful, but it can be contagious. The last thing you want to do is let that type of attitude rub off on you.\nFollowing this is \u201cThe Suck-up.\u201d Being on your boss\u2019s good side is always a good thing to do, but this type of co-worker pursues this relentlessly, to the point of being willing to throw someone under the bus if it helps them score points. If you spend too much time around them, this person may end up being you.\nNext up is \u201cThe Idle.\u201d In general, this person spends their time not doing their work. Sometimes, they mean well, but can end up being a distraction and a bad influence. Also, if you notice they\u2019re not working a lot, chances are that the boss can see as well. Associating with them could hurt your reputation by proxy.\nLast is \u201cThe Thief.\u201d The thief, in this case, isn\u2019t stealing office supplies, but ideas and credit. In this case, it\u2019s pretty clear why you want to avoid someone like this. People like this are constantly looking to attach themselves to projects that they try to take credit for. The last thing you want to see is someone like this get recognition or even rewards for something that you put the work in for. In this case, keeping away from the office thief is truly addition by subtraction.\nWith any luck, you won\u2019t have to deal with many people like this. But if you do, these tips will help make your workday a bit easier to deal with.",

        "title": "Interview with Taylor Adams On his novel No Exit, writing, and inspirations | More2Read Interviews",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Taylor Adams On his novel No Exit, writing, and inspirations\nGenre: Book2Screen, Interviews, Mystery/Thriller\nPhoto by KING 5\nTaylor Adams directed the acclaimed short film And I Feel Fine in 2008 and graduated from Eastern Washington University with the prestigious Edmund G. Yarwood Award. His directorial work has screened at the Seattle True Independent Film Festival and his writing has been featured on KAYU-TV\u2019s Fox Life blog. Taylor lives in Washington state and has written three novels, published by Joffe Books:\nEYESHOT (Thriller): Miles into the Mojave desert, a husband and wife are pinned down by a ruthless sniper.\nOUR LAST NIGHT (Paranormal thriller): Ghosts, romance, and a cursed antique rifle. What could possibly go wrong?\nNO EXIT (Thriller): A kidnapped little girl locked inside a stranger\u2019s van. No help for miles. What would you do?\nWelcome, thank you for taking out the time to answer my questions on writing.\nCongratulations on your new suspense tale No Exit.\nTell me more about this novel, of how was the seed for this one was planted and what was the inspiration behind it?\nThank you! The seed for this one came from rest stops \u2013 I\u2019ve stopped at quite a few of them myself, and they can be undeniably creepy places, especially alone and after-hours. Rest stops are fairly universal \u2013 almost everyone has been to one, and most people seem to agree they\u2019re pretty scary \u2013 so as a setting, it really appealed to me because I\u2019d never seen a movie or book take advantage of that particular \u201cphobia.\u201d Witnessing a crime at a rest stop, and having to decide if and how to react, was a fascinating concept for me. And adding the blizzard was a nice way to keep the cast trapped there and drive the tension. Once I had those core ingredients in place, I was really excited to begin writing.\nYou book is available around the world in different languages, tell me is that the first time?\nWhat does it feel like to have this widely available?\nIt\u2019s crazy! Exciting \u2013 but also a little bit scary. I\u2019ve never had a book this widely available. At this time, it\u2019s being translated into 31 languages, which is utterly mind-boggling to me. It\u2019s amazing to think about how the story is reaching readers literally around the world, across cultures and languages. It\u2019s been really fun, too, to see all the different covers my different publishers come up with. There are some downright beautiful ones, and some genuinely creepy ones as well!\nI read that 20th Century Fox have optioned it with script writer Scott Frank to produce of whom has written for Logan, Wolverine, Minority Report and Get Shorty. Must feel great to have No Exit adapted to screen. Is there an expected date attached to this?\nNo firm date yet \u2013 in my experience, things tend to happen when they happen in the film business. I\u2019m just thrilled to get to watch it come together, and I\u2019m so excited by the talent and pedigree of everyone involved! I feel it\u2019s in great hands. Minority Report is one of my all-time favorite movies.\nWhats next? Anything out in 2020 or beyond?\nI am working on a new thriller! It\u2019s similar to NO EXIT in some ways, but quite different in others. I\u2019m on my fourth draft currently, and having a fun time experimenting with a nonlinear story that allows for a whole new toolbox of suspense tricks. I\u2019ve never written a story told chronologically \u201cout of order,\u201d but always wanted to. I aim to be finished in a few months! Ideally.\nWriting, when, where and with what?\n2 hours a day, on the train or couch, with an ancient Macbook laptop. (I really need to upgrade).\nWhat advice would you give to the aspiring novelist?\nDon\u2019t give up! Keep writing, every day. And try to stick to a firm schedule and hold yourself accountable to it, whether it\u2019s two hours a day, or a certain minimum daily word count, or some combination thereof. The important thing is to never waste a day. Even if you\u2019re on vacation, and you\u2019re just scribbling notes on a piece of notepaper \u2013 that\u2019s still writing, and it counts! At least that\u2019s what I tell myself.\nAside for writing, whats your side hustle?\nWhat do you keep yourself busy with.\nI work a day job in Seattle as an account manager at a local television station, where I manage advertising campaigns. It\u2019s a pleasant break from writing, and it also gives my day a good structure. I get my mandatory two hours of writing done in the morning and evening train commutes (one hour each way), which so far has worked perfectly. In my free time when I\u2019m not writing or working, I do also enjoy reading, watching movies, and hiking.\nIf you could phone up a passed author who would it be and what question would you ask him or her?\nI would call Michael Crichton, and ask him how the heck he came up with Jurassic Park. It\u2019s an absolutely ingenious sci-fi premise, a wonderful narrative reason to put humans in harrowing situations with dinosaurs, and a cheeky bit of satire as well (because of course we would turn the most significant scientific breakthrough in modern history into a theme park). It\u2019s just an amazing premise, top to bottom, executed beautifully, and I\u2019d love to know how it developed, especially in its very early stages.\n4/11/02 Michael Crichton \u201964, HMS \u201969 speaks on \u201cThe Media and Medicine\u201d at Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA on Thursday, April 11, 2002. staff photo by Jon Chase/Harvard University News Office\nWhich authors and books inspired you to be an author?\nThe high-concept thrillers of Scott Smith, the vivid action of Stephen Hunter, and the visceral terror of Stephen King all inspired me to try my hand at the craft. But I\u2019m a sucker for a well-told story in any genre or format, and I\u2019m a huge fan of thriller and horror cinema as well! A good thriller must unfold like a movie in the reader\u2019s mind, so there\u2019s a lot to learn from the suspense-building tricks and tactics of tense films as well (\u201cGreen Room\u201d one of my favorite recent examples).\nWhich characters and stories from fiction do you re-read, and why?\nI like to re-read Stephen King\u2019s \u201cThe Stand\u201d every few years \u2013 some stories are so vast and epic that they demand to be re-experienced as I mature and my tastes change. I also see myself re-reading \u201cHouse of Leaves\u201d by Mark Z. Danielewski sometime very soon. That book is a marvelous, complex, difficult (not to mention, scary) thing that I feel I\u2019ve only scratched the surface of, and I look forward to diving back in!\nLove The Stand too and regularly re-read it, can\u2019t wait for the new adaption to screen.\nThanks for this peak into your book, writing life, and inspirations.\nhttps://tayloradamsauthor.com\nBook Review: No Exit by Taylor Adams | More2Read https://more2read.com",

        "title": "Obama Holds Conference on the Nation's Growing Opioid Problem",
        "raw_content": "Obama Holds Conference on the Nation's Growing Opioid Problem\nPresident Obama addressed the opiate epidemic plaguing America on Wednesday at a press conference in West Virginia, the state with the most drug overdose deaths in the nation.\n\u201cThis crisis is taking lives. It\u2019s destroying families; it\u2019s shattering communities all across the country,\u201d he said to a packed room of people, many of whom have been directly affected by the opioid epidemic and are struggling to comprehend the current state of treatment for their loved ones.\nOne father stood up in the audience and spoke about how his daughter was saved from an accidental heroin overdose when first responders were able to administer the antidote drug naloxone. With his daughter now in treatment in Michigan, the question was raised: Why can\u2019t there be more treatment facilities and programs in West Virginia and around the nation?\nObama\u2019s proposed $133 million in new spending would provide more support for prescription drug monitoring programs. It will also decrease the amount of prescriptions written by medical professionals and expand access to naloxone. Congress will need to approve the spending before any initiatives can move forward.\nObama reminded everyone that in 2012 alone, there were a reported 259 million prescriptions written for opioid painkillers in the U.S., which \u201cis enough to give every American adult their own bottle of pills.\u201d The President added: \u201cFour in five heroin users started out using prescription drugs, so this is a gateway drug.\u201d\nThere have been commitments from more than 40 health care groups thus far \u2013 including physicians, dentists, nurses, and even educators \u2013 to follow the administration\u2019s strategy for making treatment options more available to families and to have doctors become trained in how to properly administer opiates.\nLaw enforcement has also gotten on board to help combat the epidemic. Charleston Police Chief Brent Webster, who spoke at the conference, has been trying alternative ways to help the addicted persons in the community and their families. He and his team have initiated a \u201cjail or immediate treatment\u201d protocol in conjunction with the U.S Attorney. The protocol has been successful so far, with only one person being re-arrested since inception.\nHe also has his \u201cHandle with Care\u201d pilot program, in which police provide schools with a notification to make sure teachers are aware of a child who experienced a traumatic drug related event the night before. It is an attempt to make sure children from drug addicted households are shown a little extra care and have an eye kept on them. Both of these efforts by the police department could encourage the adoption of similar programs across the nation.\nAs everyone waits for Congress to do their part, Obama made sure he reminded all listeners that addiction doesn\u2019t discriminate. \u201cIt could be your child,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is an American problem.\u201d",

        "title": "The MacGregor Brothers Discuss 'Best F(r)iends' and Working with Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero | MovieBabble",
        "raw_content": "by Nick Kush \u00b7 Published June 16, 2018 \u00b7 Updated June 16, 2018\nRecently, independent film has undergone a renaissance period of sorts with wonderful talents producing wildly inventive and often beautiful pieces of art. And yet, if you ask me, one of the more fascinating projects to release into theaters in the last few years is one that includes two familiar faces that you know and love: Best F(r)iends. Starring Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero of The Room fame, this two-part saga is based on anecdotes from the cult duo\u2019s experiences together over the years \u2014 while also weaving in some mystery and dark humor. Essentially, it\u2019s a story that you want\u2026 and even need. I know I fall into that camp!\nI had the opportunity to discuss this ambitious story with Justin MacGregor (director) and Kris MacGregor (co-producer), the brother combo that helped bring it to life. And while many will be intrigued to see this story solely for Wiseau and Sestero, it\u2019s clear that the MacGregor brothers are keen on creating more out of this reunion than just cheap thrills.\nNick Kush: I\u2019ve been so fascinated with Best F(r)iends ever since its release in a few film festivals late last year. How exactly did the idea for the film come about?\nJUSTIN: I received an early treatment from Greg in 2016 and it was as bizarre as it was hilarious, but it was clear that its scenes were inspired by real life events shared by him and Tommy, so there was this added layer which made it both compelling and visceral. The idea for the movie came from a combination of Greg\u2019s desire to write a role for Tommy that played to his genuine charisma\u2026 and I suspect, perhaps, from a desire to express a few things he still had left to say after The Disaster Artist. From the perspective of director, I felt an opportunity to explore the abstract depths of this f(r)iendship, from which there are several levels to consider, most of them unknown to their fans.\nKRISTOPHER: I think Best F(r)iends \u2014 or something like it, had been bouncing around Greg\u2019s head for quite some time. And then as he began to see The Disaster Artist develop, things started to take shape in a more concrete fashion. He saw an early cut of Franco\u2019s film and wanted to give Tommy a performance he could sink his teeth into, something tailored to his eccentricities. The Room was such a passion project, and Best F(r)iends certainly picks up that mantle in the sense that it comes from the same set of intentions: to go out and make a film, to create something.\nNK: What was the idea behind not only producing a new movie starring Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero, but also creating a two-part arc and releasing them both within a few months of each other? Did Greg\u2019s script facilitate such a move?\nJUSTIN:Best F(r)iends is an event film in that it\u2019s a celebration of Tommy and Greg\u2019s reunion. The script, written as one story, slowly evolved into a two-part film as production went on. It was a long script, which meant some scenes inevitably ended up on the cutting room floor. Notably, the second half of the story makes quite a stark departure from the first, especially in terms of landscape. Somewhere along the way, we decided to reshape the latter half into a second movie. The f(r)iendship continues\u2026\nKRISTOPHER: Early in the editing process, we began sharing a test screener of the first half of the film, ending on the cliff sequence, with some close colleagues and friends. They mistook it for the whole film and loved the abruptness of the ending. This was unexpected and encouraged us to analyze the material from a new angle. Tommy has been joking that we just filmed too much material \u2013 and there\u2019s some truth to that, but really, it was about letting the story unfold. Splitting it into two volumes allowed the tone and aesthetic of each half to really be explored. And who doesn\u2019t love a good cliffhanger?\nNK: Naturally, anything that stars Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero is going to get mentioned in the same breath as The Room. Did you go into production with the idea that you were going to make a \u201ccult film,\u201d or is that dangerous territory as a filmmaker?\nJUSTIN: The intention was never to make a \u2018cult film\u2019, rather to make a new and original film. I think there was an unspoken acknowledgment that the peripheral creative universes of both men\u2019s work were going to seep into the fabric of Best F(r)iends \u2014 even if we tried to run the other way. There were certain inevitabilities in that regard. As a film that reunites cult legends though, there\u2019s an appeal to that bleed-over. It makes the story richer, more inclusive. We strived to achieve something that stands on its own merits, however.\nKRISTOPHER: Our goal was to cater to The Room fandom without pandering to it. Fan satisfaction in lieu of fan service. In this approach, I think we achieved what we set out to do. The hardcore spoon-throwers have really embraced it, but we\u2019re also being told by the uninitiated, or newer fans brought in by The Disaster Artist, that Best F(r)iends stands on its own. We hope both segments of viewer can find a compelling story ripe with quirk and charm.\nNK: I have my own love for The Room and Tommy Wiseau, so I must know: what\u2019s the best Tommy story from the set that you can tell?\nJUSTIN: (Justin extensively detailed his favorite Tommy Wiseau moment for the Huffington Post)\nKRISTOPHER: Tommy Wiseau is an enigma. He can be aloof one minute and a veritable savant the next. You never know which Tommy will turn up to set. Having captured our behind-the-scenes footage, I got to peer inside his mind from a unique angle. I was able to decipher his habits, his idiosyncrasies, and every now and then, he\u2019d look right into my lens and we\u2019d share this weird symbiosis, like he knew he was revealing something, but wasn\u2019t sure if he was okay with it.\nWe\u2019ve talked publicly about the clown scene as the team\u2019s collective favorite Tommy moment on-set, but I\u2019m still drawn to all the subtle, fragmented moments: when he\u2019d try to promote his underwear (\u201c40% improvement\u201d), the patterns of how and when he ties his hair up, the way his glasses are always smudgy, the style of his notation in the margins of his script, how he\u2019d whip out a story from his past that had nothing to do with the conversation at hand \u2014 like how he got his first car, or a technical problem he had with early denim prototypes in San Francisco\u2026 In composite, all of these seemingly insignificant, fleeting moments revealed a man far more complex, far more interesting, and far less bizarre than his public perception allows for. He\u2019s fickle, self-promoting, and can be a bit of a diva\u2026 but he\u2019s also compassionate, impassioned, and purposeful.\nEvery time Justin would cut a scene, Tommy would ask \u201cHow this come out?\u201d and I think that tells you everything you need to know about the man. It was truly a privilege to work with him. None of us will ever forget it.\nNK: Greg and Tommy are such interesting personalities. How did you go about using their idiosyncrasies to the story\u2019s advantage?\nJUSTIN: What struck me first about Tommy and Greg is how they communicate with each other in the real world and the unique chemistry they share. They speak in their own language: a mixture of English, French, mumbles, and secret codes. Letting this strange and authentic energy spill over into their performances and allowing it to play out over several takes while filming was one of the ways I used their idiosyncrasies to the story\u2019s advantage.\nTommy has a way of interpreting dialogue and delivering it in his own special cadence, often with radically different output from one take to the next, so from day one I knew I would be editing for a very long time to extract his character, but his connection with Greg enabled me to take comfort knowing that his performance was in there somewhere. It just had to be distilled. Their characters on screen are rooted in a real twenty-year friendship. When you\u2019ve got a bond like that, the camera can\u2019t help but pick it up. It shines through.\nKRISTOPHER: In some ways, Greg\u2019s writing built those idiosyncrasies into the script, and Justin was able to harness them from there. Tommy and Greg have such a duality about them. They\u2019re a generation apart in age, and so you get this father-son connection one moment, a brotherly affinity the next, and even an old married couple vibe at times. They play off one another very well. They can finish each other\u2019s thoughts. By writing characters for both of them that truly reflect their real-life characteristics, Greg was able to gift Justin, as director, a unique starting point: good chemistry. From there, you can really build. It was harnessing Tommy\u2019s idiosyncrasies that really makes Best F(r)iends special though.\nI remember standing off-camera with Greg one day as Tommy was acting out a solo-scene. He was killing it. He was so funny in the most natural way. I leaned over to Greg and told him this would be the first time that Tommy could be laughed with rather than laughed at. That\u2019s the game-changer to me, especially for the uninitiated. If you\u2019ve never seen Tommy Wiseau before, I think you leave Best F(r)iends thinking how crazy of a character actor he is. He nails Harvey Lewis. He gets under the character\u2019s skin. It\u2019s so fun to watch.\nNK: Do you think people fail to realize the talents of Greg and Tommy given their pasts in the industry?\nJUSTIN: Ironically, I think many fans actually do realize the talents of these men. It\u2019s the industry folks and critics that have been slow to catch up. By very unconventional means, they\u2019ve reached the same idealistic outcome that any actor longs for. Their works have united people around the world and brought smiles to faces. When you clear away the fog of The Room, and all the connotations that go along with it, I think Best F(r)iends reveals a new side of both their talents that many haven\u2019t seen before, but have known was there all along.\nKRISTOPHER: Tommy has always been poorly utilized, by himself and by others. He\u2019s not the everyman, all-American guy he longs to be. And don\u2019t get me wrong \u2014 that\u2019s part of what makes The Room so special. But when you uncouple him from that desire, you find a really raw and potentially dangerously good character actor just waiting to be deployed. With the right writing, directing, and intention, Tommy Wiseau can inhabit the vibe of a Klaus Kinski or a Christoph Waltz.\nAs for Greg, the man is detail-oriented like nobody else I\u2019ve worked with. He\u2019s very adept at forging sharp working relationships. He\u2019s able to keep the gears of production turning with ease. Coupled with his obvious writing chops, you get a really engaged, driven individual. He\u2019s the kind of production partner \u2014 and friend, that is hard to find in life, let alone in the film industry.\nNK: Best F(r)iends is very much a smaller production. Were there any benefits of this intimate feel that are noticeable in the final products?\nJUSTIN: The smaller scale of the production presented many challenges \u2014 sometimes handicaps, but these enforced consensus and motivation. It can often be frustrating as a director, fighting to realize the best possible work with such limitations, but I like to recognize that those same limitations often present wonderful creative workarounds, original ideas, happy accidents, and a kind of intimacy that is simply not replicable on a bigger production. I\u2019m proud of the ways in which we were able to overcome the hurdles that arose. It made Best F(r)iends even more of an ode to the bonds that bind.\nKRISTOPHER: The scale of our team, in conjunction with the financial scope of the project, created a simplicity and maneuverability that would otherwise have been impossible. It enforced a real sense of coordination and camaraderie, and made for some incredible MacGyver moments. More than anything else though, it made dynamic adjustments completely fluid. If we wanted to change a line, or a scene, or a location, there was no phoning upstairs to get the approval of some higher-up. We just did it. That kind of liberation informed so much of what you see in the finished product.\nNK: What\u2019s the ultimate goal with the Best F(r)iends saga? Is there something you feel it has to achieve for you to view it as a success?\nJUSTIN: For me, the ultimate goal with the saga is to succeed at surprising audiences with something new and unexpected and to hopefully reach fans and new audiences alike. As a lifelong fan of Tommy and Greg\u2019s bond myself, I would consider this saga successful if people felt it was a worthy contribution to the overall legacy of their friendship. At the end of the day, that\u2019s what Best F(r)iends is: a celebration of friendship, and all the crazy ways it manifests itself.\nKRISTOPHER: The ultimate goal from the beginning was reuniting Tommy and Greg, so by that metric, it\u2019s a success. That it\u2019s been received by audiences so well thus far has just been icing. From a creative and technical perspective, we set out to create a quirky little indie tale filled with fun visuals, nostalgic nods to cinema, and a focus on the tropes of classic friendship. Greg\u2019s story was born of an intention to work with his friend Tommy again \u2014 it really was that earnest. So if you leave the theater reveling in good friendship, that\u2019s reward enough for us.\nVolume One: When a drifter (Sestero) is taken in by a peculiar mortician (Wiseau), the two hatch an underground enterprise off the back of the mortician\u2019s old habits. But greed, hatred, and jealousy soon come in turn, and their efforts unravel, causing the drifter to run off with the spoils and leaving the mortician adrift.\nVolume Two: As Sestero\u2019s drifter makes a run for it, he finds himself on an expedition across the Southwest, where he encounters wild and crazy characters through a series of twisted and dark foibles. While his misadventure teaches him a valuable lesson about friendship and loyalty, Wiseau\u2019s mortician carries the story home with more than a few surprises.\nHOW TO FIND SCREENINGS:\nOfficial Website:www.bf-movie.com\nFacebook Events:www.facebook.com/bestfriendsmovie/events/\nFOLLOW THE FILM:\nTwitter and Instagram: @bf_movie\nThanks for reading!

        "raw_content": "Mechanisms of ski-induced apoptosis in cardiac fibroblasts and myofibroblasts\nDavies, Jared\nOne of the hallmarks of chronic cardiac disease is the excessive formation of fibrous extracellular matrix. This inappropriate remodeling is mediated in large part by cardiac fibroblasts and phenoconverted myofibroblasts. The protooncoprotein Ski has previously been described as possessing anti-fibrotic properties within the myocardium, in addition to triggering apoptosis when overexpressed. In the current study, we found that overexpression of Ski results in a set of distinct morphological and biochemical changes within primary cardiac myofibroblasts that is indicative of apoptosis. Its upregulation is associated with the expression of pro-apoptotic factors such as Bax and Bak, as well as caspase-9 and -7. In all, our results indicate that Ski triggers a pro-death mechanism in primary rat cardiac myofibroblasts that is mediated through the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. The survival of these cells appears to be prolonged by a pro-survival autophagic response as apoptosis is hastened when autophagy is inhibited. The observed cell death response is likely working in parallel with the previously observed anti-fibrotic properties of Ski within this cell type. As myofibroblast cells are the engines of matrix expansion in heart failure, we suggest that using Ski or a projected Ski-mimetic to induce graded apoptosis in myofibroblasts within the failing heart may be a novel therapeutic mechanism of controlling cardiac fibrosis.\nName: davies_jared.pdf",

        "raw_content": "Teen, Dayonn Davis, Who Has No Previous Criminal Records, Gets Five Years In Jail For Stealing Nike Shoes.\nAn 18 year old from Columbus, Georgia will be spending the next five years behind bars for stealing a pair of Nike sneakers when he was 15. On top of that, he was also hit with 10 years probation.\nAccording to The Root, Dayonn Davis has no prior criminal record, but that didn\u2019t stop Judge Bobby Peters from handing down a harsh senetence.\n\u201cI don\u2019t get that,\u201d Peters said while sentencing the teen. \u201cMust be some valuable shoes.\u201d\nThe shoes that Dayonn took were a pair of Nike Oreas that retail around $100.\nDayonn stole the shoes from an owner who was trying to sell them on Facebook. He ended up meeting with the owner on Jan. 17, 2016.\nDayonn brought his friend with him to the meeting, and after finding out that the shoes were a perfect fit, he apparently told the owner, \u201cThese shoes is took.\u201d Things started to take a turn for the worst and Dayonn\u2019s friend pulled out a pistol and everyone took off.\nPolice were able to tack down the then young teen and ended up finding the stolen Nike\u2019s right up in his closet.\nDayonn refused to tell police at the time who was with him, but eventually he did. Unfortunately, the victim wasn\u2019t able to identify his companion in the suspect photo lineup.\nDefense attorney Susan Henderson spoke on Dayonn\u2019s behalf and said that he\u2019s sorry and is a changed man. \u201cHe\u2019s been extremely remorseful,\u201d she said. \u201cHe\u2019s got his life on track now.\u201d\nShe also said that her client was an A and B student in high school, and claims Dayonn had no clue the guy with him was going to pull a gun out.\n\u201cI was young at the time, so I wasn\u2019t in my right mind,\u201d Dayonn told the judge. The judge wasn\u2019t here for it though.\n\u201cMaybe he\u2019s the wrong person,\u201d the judge said of Davis, emphasizing that whether or not Davis intended for anyone to pull a gun, he had obviously intended to take the shoes as he had been the one who set up the meeting. \u201cHe\u2019s the one with the shoes in his closet.\u201d\nMan Sues CVS Pharmacy For Revealing His Secret Viagra Medication To His Wife.\nCategories: Convictions, Crime, Law and order, Lifestyle, News\nTags: Dayonn Davis, Nike shoes, racism, Teen\nThe judge did right.

        "title": "Does Northwestern Have a Realistic Shot to Win the Big Ten West? - National Football Post",
        "raw_content": "Does Northwestern Have a Realistic Shot to Win the Big Ten West?\nBy Nate Wallace\nThe Northwestern Wildcats are one of the pleasant surprises so far this season, not only for the Big Ten but for college football as a whole. They opened the season with a bang, beating a very well-coached Stanford team that beat a talented USC squad on the road in Week 3. From there, the Wildcats have quietly taken care of business, picking up a quality road victory against Duke along the way.\nEntering the season, the Big Ten was expected to have two top tier teams (Ohio State and Michigan State) and a few middle tier teams (Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, and Nebraska) with Northwestern somewhere in the middle-to-low tier with the likes of Maryland and Iowa.\nFour weeks into the season and things have shifted around a little bit. The #16 Wildcats are the third-highest ranked Big Ten team behind #1 Ohio State and #2 Michigan State. This surprising question now arises: Can Fitzgerald\u2019s bunch can win the Big Ten West.\nThe answer is yes, but it won\u2019t be easy by any stretch of the imagination.\nThe Wildcats have been consistent on offense with QB Clayton Thorson throwing for 543 yards and 4 touchdowns, while RB Justin Jackson has totaled 516 rushing yards. Defensively, Northwestern has been great as well, ranking 11th in the country in total defense and tied for 5th in red zone defense. To see whether the Wildcats can win the Big Ten West, though, you must look at the Wildcats\u2019 remaining schedule. Northwestern is fortunate that Michigan State and Ohio State do not make an appearance on their slate, but there are still some tricky games that could trip them up.\nMinnesota\u2013 October 3rd\nThis game could really inform the country that Northwestern is a team that shouldn\u2019t be taken lightly, or on the other hand, they are a team that had a fluky start to the season and are finally coming down to earth. The Golden Gophers gave TCU a scare in the first game of the season but they have looked very shaky as of late, winning each of their last three games by only 3 points. Prediction: Minnesota continues to struggle and Northwestern takes advantage of turnovers.\nPrediction: Northwestern wins 28-17. (1-0 Big Ten record)\nAt Michigan\u2013 October 10th\nPat Fitzgerald vs. Jim Harbaugh is quite the intriguing matchup. The Wolverines dominated BYU 31-0 in Week 4 and looked solid in every aspect, especially on defense, holding the Cougars to 105 total yards. This win would solidify the Wildcats as a top-15 team, but the moment might be a little too big for freshman QB Clayton Thorson.\nPrediction: Michigan wins 24-14. (1-1 Big Ten record)\nIowa\u2013 October 17th\nThis will be a low-scoring affair, but the Wildcats will find a way to win at home.\nAt Nebraska\u2013 October 24th\nTwo weeks after playing in the Big House, Northwestern travels to Lincoln to face the Cornhuskers in what could be a season-defining game. A loss wouldn\u2019t completely take them out of the Big Ten West picture but it could seriously hurt their chances.\nPrediction: Northwestern plays mistake-free football and escapes Lincoln with a 31-24 victory. (3-1 Big Ten record)\nPenn State\u2013 November 7th\nThe Nittany Lions have struggled at times this season, but most of their problems are fixable. Christian Hackenberg and Penn State get revenge from last year and win by a field goal.\nPrediction: Penn State wins 31-28. (3-2 Big Ten record)\nPurdue\u2013 November 14th\nThe score in this one won\u2019t even be close.\nPrediction: Wildcats win 42-14. (4-2 Big Ten record)\nAt Wisconsin\u2013 November 21st\nYou never know what to expect with college football, but most likely, the Badgers will be undefeated or have one loss in Big Ten play when Northwestern comes to town. Last season, the Wildcats upset Wisconsin but the Badgers still ended up in Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship game. This season, Pat Fitzgerald and company want to take Wisconsin\u2019s spot.\nIllinois\u2013 November 28th\nAfter a huge victory against Wisconsin, the Wildcats will have a slight hangover against the Illini, but still hold on for the victory.\nWith my predictions, Northwestern finishes the season at 6-2 in the Big Ten, winning the West division. Wisconsin also finishes 6-2, but the Wildcats would win the head-to-head tiebreaker.\nWhat I just laid out is probably the best case scenario for the Wildcats, because I don\u2019t see them going undefeated in Big Ten play. Could Northwestern lose three conference games and still win the West? Sure, but it would be very difficult. I think all eyes will be on their matchup with Wisconsin on November 21st, where the winner will most likely win the West division.\nIn conclusion, nobody truly knows what will happen weeks from now, but based on what Northwestern has done so far this season, a trip to the Big Ten Championship game is definitely in the cards.",

        "raw_content": "Prescription Sleep Aid Use\nAccording to estimates, 50\u201370 million Americans suffer from sleep disorders or deprivation, which can not only hinder daily functioning, but can also adversely affect their health. Prescription sleep aids are one of the treatment options for trouble going into or maintaining sleep. However, long-term use of sleep aids has been linked to adverse outcomes in health.\nA new report from NCHS provides the first person-based national data on prescription sleep aid use among noninstitutionalized U.S. adult population.\nAbout 4% of U.S. adults aged 20 and over used prescription sleep aids in the past month.\nThe percentage of adults using a prescription sleep aid increased with age and education. More adult women (5.0%) used prescription sleep aids than adult men (3.1%).\nNon-Hispanic white adults were more likely to use sleep aids (4.7%) than non-Hispanic black (2.5%) and Mexican-American (2.0%) adults.\nPrescription sleep aid use varied by sleep duration and was highest among adults who sleep less than 5 hours (6.0%) or sleep 9 or more hours (5.3%).\nOne in six adults with a diagnosed sleep disorder and one in eight adults with trouble sleeping reported using sleep aids.\nMale Newborn Circumcision on a Three Decade Decline\nNCHS has released a new report on estimates of male newborn circumcisions performed during the birth hospitalization. Using data from the National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS), annual rates of newborn circumcision are presented for 1979\u20132010.\nAcross the 32-year period from 1979 through 2010, the national rate of newborn circumcision declined 10% overall, from 64.5% to 58.3%.\nDuring this time, the overall percentage of newborns circumcised during their birth hospitalization was highest in 1981 at 64.9%, and lowest in 2007 at 55.4%.\nIn the Western states, the rate dropped to 40.2 percent in 2010 from 63.9 percent in 1979. Rates in the Northeast were flat overall. In the Midwest, they mirrored trends in the national rate. In the South, they generally increased from 1979 until 1998 and then declined.\nLeave a Comment \u00bb\t| circumcision\t| Permalink\nCircumcision is an important decision for parents of male newborns. The choice is simple for some families because they follow their cultural or religious beliefs. However, for other families this decision may be so clear.\nDocumented research has shown that male circumcision can reduce a males risk of contracting HIV and lowers the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases.\nAs a statistical agency, NCHS does not have a view on that particular subject but we do track male infant circumcision through our National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS).\nNHDS reported that 65% of newborns were circumcised in 1999, and the overall proportion of newborns circumcised was stable from 1979 through 1999. In 2007, the NHDS found that 55% of male infants were circumcised.\nFor more information on male circumcision:\nhttp://www.cdc.gov/hiv/prevention/research/malecircumcision/\nhttp://www.healthychildren.org/English/ages-stages/prenatal/decisions-to-make/Pages/Circumcision.aspx",

Anxiety disorders affect 14% of all people aged 16-85 in Australia. These are big numbers (3.28 million people with depression in their lifetime), and with modern hectic lifestyles, this occurrence is likely to increase.\nIt\u2019s easy to take the brain and nervous system for granted, but they are involved in every single process in the body and once they cease to operate, death will occur. When the nervous system becomes ill or diseased, there are often severe consequences ranging from multiple sclerosis, Parkinson\u2019s and Alzheimer\u2019s, to depression, anxiety, schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder. What causes them? Toxins, prescribed medications, recreational drugs, alcohol, lack of nutrients and antioxidants and gene susceptibility will all contribute.\nThe nervous system is the processing centre of the body divided up into the central nervous system (CNS) which consists of the brain and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) which innervates the organs and extremities of body, taking information to and from the CNS. The CNS is the control centre of the body, regulating what sensory information is acted on, all the internal processes of the body that are responsible for keeping us alive, memory, emotion and so on.\nThe PNS is further divided into the somatic nervous system (which gives us voluntary control over our movements) and the autonomic nervous system which takes care of all the day to day activities that are not under voluntary control (like keeping the heart beating, digestion and our metabolism).\nBiochemistry of the brain\nIn order for our neurones to operate correctly, the cells need to be able to send messages to each other across synapses by use of chemicals known as neurotransmitters. Some of the better known neurotransmitters are serotonin, dopamine, GABA and acetylcholine. An imbalance of these has been strongly linked to the development of mood disorders, such as depression and anxiety. Depletion of these neurotransmitters can happen through use of certain drugs, poor diet, stress, sleep deprivation or lack of production due to genetic factors.\nHow natural therapy can help\nDuring your consultation and in conjunction with your patient history, neurotransmitter levels can be assessed, then a treatment plan may be implemented. A wide variety of herbal medicines and nutritional supplements are able to produce beneficial effects on the brain by influencing neurotransmitters and their receptors, helping not only with mood, but also sleep and feelings of well-being.",

        "raw_content": "WORLD NEWS MEXICO-XOLOS 1 LA\nMEXICO CITY \u2014 The beasts are brown and hairless except for a wiry mohawk. Their bodies, warm and slightly waxy, call to mind a hot water bottle with four legs.\nThey routinely win dog shows \u2014 in the ugliest category. Far from man\u2019s best friend, they\u2019re notoriously aloof and cunning.\nYet when it came time for Aleph Henestrosa and his wife to get a canine, the decision was easy.\n\u201cThese dogs are amazing,\u201d Henestrosa said.\nAnd perhaps more important: \u201cThese dogs are Mexican.\u201d\nThe Xoloitzcuintle \u2014 pronounced SHOW-low-ITS-quintley in the indigenous language of Nahuatl \u2014 is a marvel of breeding by the Aztecs more than 3,000 years ago. Today, the dog is enjoying a resurgence among upper-class Mexicans as both a status symbol and a nod to their indigenous roots.\nAt up to $5,000 a puppy in a country where the average daily wage is less than $20, the breed is most likely to be spotted in wealthy enclaves such as La Condesa, in Mexico City, or Sayulita, a bohemian resort town on the Pacific Coast.\nAlthough the people who can afford Xolos, as the dogs are affectionately known, may often be more closely related to Mexico\u2019s European conquerors than to its native peoples, they are helping fuel a renewed interest in the country\u2019s pre-Hispanic past.\nIt is part of what Henestrosa calls \u201ca revolution of Mexicanness.\u201d\nThe trend can be seen across Mexican culture, in the clothing of Carla Fernandez, a designer who transforms the textiles of Mexico\u2019s indigenous communities into contemporary styles, and in the palate of chef Enrique Olvera, whose Michelin-star restaurant Pujol features dishes that pay homage to classic Mexican street food and indigenous cuisine.\nMexico\u2019s national dog, whose population dropped so low in the 1950s that there was an organized effort by the World Canine Association to find purebreds and breed them, is suddenly everywhere.\nA goofy Xolo named Dante stars in an upcoming Pixar cartoon set in Mexico. Recently, the wealthy owner of the Tijuana soccer club chose Xolos as the mascot of his team in an homage to his hairless pup, Hermoso.\nThis year, the breed participated for the first time in the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.\nBack in the early civilizations of Mesoamerica, Xolos were valued for a different reason. Archaeologists, who have discovered their bones in the tombs of the Maya and the Toltec, believe the dogs were sacrificed and buried beside their owners because they were believed to help guide human souls on their journeys to the underworld.\nA less romantic and less discussed historical fact from that era: The dogs were also considered delicacies and were sometimes eaten at ceremonial events.\nThe prevalence of Xolos was noted in early observations by Spanish colonizers, who noticed that their lack of hair made them well suited to the hot climate. Since then, the dog has frequently been trotted out as a symbol of Mexican pride.\nArtists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera collected Xolos and included them in their paintings celebrating pre-Hispanic history. Rivera gave a pair of the dogs to Dolores Olmedo, a wealthy art collector. The descendants of those canines still roam the grounds of the museum created at her estate, where they are photographed relentlessly by giggling tourists unfamiliar with bald dogs.\nDespite their shocking appearance \u2014 Xolos have been mistaken for chupacabras, the hunchbacked, bloodsucking beast of Latin American legend \u2014 many people find them beautiful.\nHenestrosa acquired three of the dogs several years ago when he returned to Mexico after a stint abroad that included a job in finance in Europe and degrees at Dartmouth and Stanford. Mexico\u2019s economy was growing, and he decided to return to his home country to be a part of it.\nLike many Xolo owners, he says they\u2019re more interesting \u2014 \u201cand more spiritual\u201d \u2014 than typical dogs. He calls his 6-year-old Xolos \u2014 Snuggles, Dumas and Tonatiuh \u2014 \u201cthe Kings of Condesa.\u201d\nThey are taken out for strolls by a dog walker four times a day. They eat meals of chicken and broccoli stew, prepared by the family\u2019s personal chef.\nBecause the dogs have no hair, they don\u2019t leave fur on sofas or clothing. On the downside: Their skin gets dry and in sunny climates must be regularly slathered with sunblock.\nXolos are known for being standoffish, more like cats than dogs.\n\u201cMost dogs are completely silly \u2014 they love you regardless,\u201d said Henestrosa, 44, as he walked his brood down a leafy street on a recent morning. The dogs were in a world of their own, with Tonatiuh occasionally stopping to gnaw on the ear of Snuggles, his runty brother. \u201cThese dogs look at you like, \u2018What\u2019s in it for me?\u2019\u201d Henestrosa said.",

My annual forecast is a big illustrated story.\nEach of us is a character of one\u2019s own unique story written in the stars. That story has its turning points, acute crises and periods of unprecedented success. Sometimes life goes uphill, and sometimes it resembles a steep descent along the ski slope. I believe that it is useful for everyone to know their own destiny, for a person who does not know one\u2019s own karma makes one\u2019s way through the city jungle barefoot and blindfolded. Knowledge of destiny gives an informed view of life! I can tell from my own experience that astrology is a very useful tool that helps in solving many life problems.\nThe second section of my site is dedicated to Sri Lanka that I admire like many of those people who have been able to visit this land. Adam, who was expelled from Heaven Paradise, Lord Shiva, Lord Buddha, Lord Rama and Hanuman visited this good land. Writers Arthur Clarke and Michael Ondaatje, the founder of the Theosophical Society Elena Blavatsky and the architect Geoffrey Bawa lived in Sri Lanka and loved it.\nSri Lanka gives me inspiration; I practice yoga, meditation, and sometimes appear in Sri Lankan newspapers. As a consulting astrologer I work remotely. I can be contacted by WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram +79117441114, Skype art_urania or e-mail contact@arturania.com\nIf you come to sunny Ceylon, you can consult me personally and have the great holidays!",

        "raw_content": "Few women experience a change in life circumstances more drastic than when we have a family. Generally speaking, most women have carved out a life for themselves, have a job and probably a career that they are deeply engaged in. That time at home with your baby is a hard, beautiful, joyful and incredibly trying time. You might find that you are feeling all \u2018the feels\u2019 when your maternity leave comes to an end.\nThe Emotional Conflict\nThe thought of getting back out into the world is exciting. It\u2019s something that most of us are dying to do because by the time we\u2019ve had 12 months at home immersed in all things baby, we\u2019re ready for some adult company, some new challenges and, let\u2019s face it, a bit more money in our pockets. But the reality is that for all the great things about going back to work, it will probably leave you feeling very emotionally conflicted.\nThe pull to our children is bigger than we imagined it could be. Yet most women these days live a modern life, with all the trappings that go with modern life, so it\u2019s natural to want to reclaim that after a time of being in the parenting trenches.\nAm I Still Relevant?\nThe other big question that many women are asking themselves after 12 months out of the work force is \u201cam I still relevant?\u201d. Often, there have been changes at work, which can be disconcerting. It\u2019s not uncommon for women to return to work and find that their job is not the job they left behind 12 months earlier.\nWhile these changes within your work sphere, and more significantly within yourself, can leave you feeling a bit wobbly, vulnerability is a great force for change. If things have shifted for you it\u2019s a great opportunity to really assess what your goals and your hopes are, and use the opportunity to engineer a situation that works for you and for your family.\nSome great advice I was given when heading back to work after having my babies, was to persevere. It takes time to get used to your new normal. Think back to how topsy turvy things felt when you first came home with your baby, but then you adjusted and settled in to your new life.\nThe same will happen when returning to work. You\u2019ll navigate your way through any changes at work, you\u2019ll get your morning routine with the childcare drop off down pat, and then in a few months time you\u2019ll likely wake up and look forward to heading in to the office.",

        "raw_content": "WASHINGTON--If you want to talk about candidates borrowing from each other, consider how much Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are taking on loan from the late Sen. Paul Wellstone, the affable populist killed in a plane crash shortly before the 2002 election.\n\"I don't represent the big oil companies. I don't represent the big pharmaceutical companies,\" Wellstone said in the final television ad of his last campaign. \"I don't represent the Enrons of this world. But you know what? They already have great representation in Washington. It's the rest of the people that need it. I represent the people of Minnesota.\"\nAnd here's Hillary Clinton in a television ad run during the Wisconsin primary campaign: \"The oil companies, the drug companies have had seven years of a president who stands up for them. It's time we had a president who stands up for all of you.\"\nAs for Obama, he noted in Ohio this week that \"year after year, politicians in Washington sign trade agreements that are riddled with perks for big corporations but have absolutely no protections for American workers. It's bad for our economy; it's bad for our country.\"\nWellstone called for a trade policy that \"doesn't just work for the multinationals, but also works for the environment, for safe food, for living wages; a trade policy that promotes democracy and the right to organize and bargain collectively.\"\nNo, this is not a column about \"plagiarism.\" On the contrary, it's good news that both Clinton and Obama are echoing one of their party's most effective practitioners of egalitarian, grass-roots politics. As the Democratic presidential primary campaign enters its climactic stage, both candidates are focusing like a laser on white blue-collar voters. The language of choice is populist.\nThis is salutary for Democrats. Middle- and lower-middle-income white voters will be among the most important target groups for both parties this fall, crucial in such swing states as Ohio, Wisconsin and Iowa. The economic interests of blue-collar whites largely coincide with those of African-Americans and Latinos, yet these groups often move in different directions. When they vote together, they can make their candidates invincible. By competing fiercely for blue-collar ballots now, Obama and Clinton are beginning a coalition-building process that Democrats typically embark on too late.\nUntil recently, Clinton had a decided advantage among whites of moderate income. Restoring a firm lead in this group is vital to her political survival in the March 4 primaries.\nObama, long aware of his weakness among these voters, put more focus on wooing them in recent weeks. The success of this effort \u2013 particularly among white male voters who were once inclined to support John Edwards, the uber-populist--has been important to Obama's 10-state sweep after the Feb. 5 contests.\nObama's strong support among affluent, well-educated voters put him in danger of being branded the candidate of \"limousine liberals.\" The term was coined in 1969 by Mario Procaccino, a conservative Democrat from New York City who cast himself as a champion of the white middle class and mocked Mayor John V. Lindsay's alliance of well-off progressives and African-Americans.\nIn fact, the early Obama alignment resembled the successful coalitions of reform-minded African-American mayors elected in the 1980s and '90s. That may be no accident since David Axelrod, one of Obama's closest advisers, ran a number of those victorious campaigns, notably in Obama's Chicago.\nIn an interview, Axelrod argued that Obama had long ago transcended the contours of the urban politics of two decades ago, reaching into predominantly white, blue-collar precincts in his 2004 U.S. Senate primary. But it's clearly become an Obama campaign imperative to match that performance this year.\nClinton will not just let this happen, and one of her most affecting recent campaign ads, called \"Night Shift,\" is an ode to working people similar to Jesse Jackson's best speeches highlighting the contribution of those who \"work every day,\" from his 1988 campaign.\n\"You pour coffee, fix hair, you work the night shift at the local hospital,\" says a warm-voiced male announcer on the Clinton ad. \"You're often overworked, underpaid and sometimes overlooked.\"\nNot this year, not at this moment.\nSupporters of the free market often forget that we don't just have a capitalist system; we have a democratic capitalist system. Democracy is what gives those on the short end of market outcomes a chance to talk back and, sometimes, to alter unjust market decisions. Paul Wellstone understood that. A big-hearted communitarian, Wellstone, I suspect, would be perfectly happy to lend Clinton and Obama all the good lines they want to use.\nE. J.

        "raw_content": "Home News Addqual chooses iHub Innovation Centre for new base\nAddqual, an innovative new manufacturing services business, is the latest hi-tech business to take workshop space at Derby\u2019s iHub innovation centre on Infinity Park.\nThe company, which operates in the aerospace and medical sectors, has moved to one of the iHub\u2019s new state-of-the-art workshops, which will enable it to expand, develop and establish its measurement and qualification services as the business grows with the current demand.\nAddqual currently specialise in manufacturing services for aerospace and medical implant producers in the UK and overseas. It helps its clients utilise specialist data for day-to-day support, whilst also providing a bespoke consultancy service.\nAddqual is the second business venture for the company founder Ben Anderson. After 12 years at Rolls Royce as a manufacturing engineer, Ben left to establish his own business, which he subsequently sold to a customer six years later. Addqual was formed in 2017 to support businesses operating in the aerospace and medical supply chains.\nDespite being established for less than a year, the company has already enjoyed a number of successes and client wins, including a leading research institute and a well-known OEM, and has secured orders for the next two years.\nIt is also looking to introduce AS9100 accreditation by the end of the second quarter of 2018.\nThese advancements will enable AddQual to differentiate themselves by offering a service that generates deliverables quickly and efficiently.\nThe iHub, which has Enterprise Zone status, provides quality, flexible workspace for start-ups, early stage businesses and high growth SME\u2019s looking to establish, or expand their role in the transport engineering and hi-tech sectors.\nSince it was launched in Autumn 2016, the \u00a312m facility has attracted a diverse range of businesses from across the rail, aerospace and automotive supply industries.\nAnother exciting addition to the facilities at the iHub is the innovative \u2018iLab\u2019, which provides SMEs and larger companies with a local facility to undertake initial design, prototyping and testing of new range of products and services. It features an additive manufacturing cell, including vacuum casting machine, digital microscope, 3D printers and 3D AutoCAD software. A virtual reality suite includes Oculus Rift headset.\nSpeaking of his decision to base his business at the iHub, Ben said:\n\u201cDue to the nature of the work we undertake, it was essential for us to find top-quality workshop space and get the business moved in quickly.\n\u201cI looked at several workshop premises across the Midlands but the iHub really stood out and will provide the accommodation, facilities and on-going support I need to nurture my business during the next phase of its growth.\n\u201cAs we\u2019re looking to expand the team, it was also vital for us to be able to access local talent. The iHub boasts a superb location, which means we are accessible from across the Midlands and will be able to recruit and train the next wave of high quality engineering talent.\n\u201cOur workshop is a fantastic, high-quality, flexible space that has already enabled Addqual to develop during the critical incubation period. I\u2019m really excited for the future.\u201d\n\u201cThe arrival of Addqual to the iHub will reinforce the building\u2019s reputation for supporting and enabling cutting-edge ideas, particularly in the aerospace, automotive and transport engineering industries and I\u2019d like to wish Ben and his team every success with their ventures.\u201d\nThe iHub builds on the success of the popular Connect Derby scheme, which has created a strong market for mixed use and sector specific serviced offices at its six other buildings across the city \u2013 Friar Gate Studios, Marble Hall, Riverside Chambers, Sadler Bridge Studios, Kings Chambers and Shot Tower.",

        "raw_content": "Feb 16, 2011 9:00 am by Phil Ciciora | Business and Law Editor | 217-333-2177Business\nA team of researchers led by Madhu Khanna, a professor of agricultural and consumer economics at Illinois, shows that very high biomass prices would be needed in order to meet the ambitious goal of replacing 30 percent of petroleum consumption in the U.S. with biofuels by 2030.\nA team of researchers led by Madhu Khanna, a professor of agricultural and consumer economics at Illinois, shows that between 600 and 900 million metric tons of biomass could be produced in 2030 at a price of $140 per metric ton (in 2007 dollars) while still meeting demand for food with current assumptions about yields, production costs and land availability.\nThe paper, published in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics, is the first to study the technical potential and costs associated with producing a billion tons of biomass from different agricultural feedstocks - including corn stover, wheat straw, switchgrass and miscanthus - at a national level.\nAccording to the study, not only would this require producing about a billion tons of biomass every year in the U.S., it would also mean using a part of the available land currently enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program for energy crop production, which could significantly increase biomass production and keep biomass costs low.\n\"Most studies only tell you how much biomass is potentially available but they don't tell you how much it's going to cost to produce and where it is likely to be produced,\" Khanna said.\n\"Our economic model looks at some of the major feedstocks that could produce biomass at various prices.\"\nKhanna and her team concluded that high-yielding grasses such as miscanthus are needed to achieve the 30 percent replacement goal, \"but even then it's going to be a fairly expensive proposition,\" she said.\nWhen miscanthus is added to the mix, the goal of 1 billion tons of biomass can be achieved, but at a cost of more than $140 per ton.\n\"Most studies consider costs in the range of $40 to $50 per ton, which is fine when we're talking about biomass production to meet near-term targets for cellulosic biofuel production,\" Khanna said. \"But if we really want to get to the 30 percent replacement of gasoline, at least with the current technology, then that's going to be much more costly.\"\nAccording to Khanna, miscanthus has been excluded from previous studies because it's a crop that has yet to be grown commercially, and most of the research about it is recent and still considered experimental.\n\"But across the various scenarios and prices our model considered, miscanthus has the potential to provide 50 to 70 percent of the total biomass yield,\" she said. \"In most parts of the U.S., miscanthus is cheaper to produce than switchgrass, making it a very promising high-yield crop.\"\nThe study also contends that the economic viability of cellulosic biofuels depends on significant policy support in the form of the biofuel mandate and incentives for agricultural producers for harvesting, storing and delivering biomass as well as switching land from conventional crops to perennial grasses.\n\"Unless biomass prices are really high, these perennial grasses are going to have a hard time competing with crops like corn, soybean and wheat for prime agricultural land,\" Khanna said. \"The economics works in favor of using the marginal, less productive lands, where corn and soybean productivity is much lower. But even then there are limits as to how much we would like to use that land for biomass. The more efficiently we can use the land, the better.\"\nWith biofuels, there's also the common perception that there's an unavoidable trade-off between fuel and food, Khanna said.\n\"That concern is much more prevalent when we talk about first-generation biofuels like corn-based ethanol,\" she said. \"But for second-generation fuels, you can use crop residues as well as dedicated energy crops that can be grown on marginal land. This reduces the need to divert cropland away from food crop production. I'm optimistic that we can get considerable amounts of biomass without disrupting food production.\"\nBut relying on crop residues alone won't be sufficient to scale production up to levels set by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, which limits the production of corn ethanol to 56 billion liters after 2015, and mandates the production of at least 80 of the 136 billion liters of ethanol from non-corn starch-based cellulosic feedstocks by 2022.\n\"Crop residue yields tend to be relatively low per unit of land - 2 to 3 tons per hectare,\" Khanna said. \"That can get costly pretty quickly. There are also concerns about how much you want to take away because at some point it has a negative effect on soil productivity as well as water quality because it affects run-off. So there are limits to crop residues, which is why we have to take a closer look at energy crops.\"\nBecause even marginal land is costly and has some alternative use, both now and in the future, using it as efficiently as possible means focusing more on the highest-yielding energy crops, Khanna said.\n\"Clearly the way to go is with the high-yielding grasses, which means switchgrass and miscanthus, but what we found is that it's not going to be a single feedstock but really a mix of feedstocks,\" she said.\nDifferent regions of the country have a comparative advantage in different types of feedstocks.\n\"Corn stover is more common in the upper Midwest and West, whereas miscanthus is more prevalent in the southern part of the country and switchgrass in the real northern and southern areas,\" Khanna said.\nThe research was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, National Science Foundation, and the U. of I. Energy Biosciences Institute. Other co-authors are Hayri nal, a professor of agricultural and consumer economics at Illinois, and research associates Xiaoguang Chen and Haixiao Huang, of the Energy Biosciences Institute.",

Lahore relies on groundwater to fill its taps but groundwater levels are now falling at a rate of about 2.5 to 3 feet a year, according to WWF-Pakistan.\nThe water table in the centre of the city is now 130 feet down and is expected to fall below 230 feet by 2025, WWF researchers noted in 2017. \u201cIf the trend continues the situation will become even worse by 2040,\u201d they predicted. To try to avoid a crisis, Lahore\u2019s Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA) on Tuesday began turning off the city\u2019s 700,000 water connections 12 out of each 24 hours. Users will now get water only from approximately 4 am to 9 am, noon to 2 pm and 5 pm to 10 pm, officials said. The water agency also increased water tariffs by about 20 percent for households and about 400 percent for commercial users. Previously, water prices had been frozen since 2004.\nCar wash crackdown\nThe water agency also has disconnected the water supply to more than 280 petrol station car washes across Lahore, ordering them to install, within two months, more efficient mechanized washing facilities with water recycling systems. Disconnection notices have been sent to another 290 petrol stations as well, said Zahid Aziz, the agency\u2019s managing director who is supervising the campaign. Under the new policy, car washes should take no more than 100 liters of water per car. Currently, a typical car wash might use twice that much, Muhammad Aslam, a car wash worker, told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.\nAziz said the changes were aimed at encouraging water conservation in a city where waste is common. A petition filed by a lawyer and being heard before the Lahore High Court, for instance, seeks to stop the city using 30,500 litres of water each day to wash its streets. \u201cFresh underground water is a precious resource, which we can\u2019t allow anyone to misuse,\u201d Aziz told reporters. \u201cThe agency is working on various projects to conserve water as well as to replace underground water with surface water\u201d that will be run through a filtering plant, he said.\n\u2018Reasonable\u2019 action\nAhmad Rafay Alam, a Pakistani environmental lawyer and activist, described the city\u2019s groundwater as \u201cthoroughly exploited, extracted and poisoned\u201d by pollution. He said the new water agency rules are a reasonable move, aimed at shoring up Lahore\u2019s water security. \u201cEverywhere in the world, sensible city managers have imposed sensible rules and regulations on the use and disposal of water,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat the WASA is asking service stations to do is correct, as it owns the groundwater,\u201d Alam told the Thomson Reuters Foundation. Among new conservation measures being put in place, the agency has asked the city\u2019s parks authority to recycle used ablution water from the city\u2019s mosques to water parks and green strips along city roads.\nCurrently the parks authority \u201cneedlessly uses drinking water for horticulture when it could be responsible and use recycled water from mosques,\u201d Alam said. He said the new water restrictions and changes were causing an outcry among some car wash owners but were necessary \u201cas they\u2019re shaking up the status quo and challenging our wasteful habits\u201d. Some water users \u2013 such as Azeem \u2013 said they can see the days of water waste need to end. \u201cWhen you get something uninterrupted, you are not cautious about its worth,\u201d she said \u2013 just as water began flowing through her dry tap again. \u2013 Reuters",

        "raw_content": "https://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/03/120308-james-cameron-deepest-mariana-trench-challenger-science-sub.html\nThe DEEPSEA CHALLENGER during March tests off Papua New Guinea. Photograph by Mark Thiessen, National Geographic.\nThe DEEPSEA CHALLENGER sub in tests off Papua New Guinea in March.\nJames Cameron Headed to Ocean's Deepest Point Within Weeks\nDuring Tuesday test, filmmaker-explorer became deepest solo sub pilot ever.\nSqueezed into a submersible as futuristic as anything in his movies, James Cameron intends to descend solo to the ocean's deepest point within weeks, the Canadian filmmaker and explorer announced Thursday. (See more pictures of Cameron's sub.)\nJust Tuesday, during testing off Papua New Guinea, Cameron dived deeper than any other human has on a solo mission. Now he aims to become the first human to visit the Mariana Trench's Challenger Deep in more than 50 years\u2014and to return with animals, images, and data that were unthinkable in 1960.\nThat year the two-person crew of the U.S. Navy submersible Trieste\u2014still the only humans to have reached Challenger Deep\u2014spent only 20 minutes at the bottom, their view obscured by silt stirred up by the landing (more on the Trieste dive).\nBy contrast, the Cameron-designed DEEPSEA CHALLENGER sub is expected to allow the explorer to spend about six hours on the seafloor. During that time he plans to collect samples and film the whole affair with multiple 3-D, high-definition cameras and an 8-foot-tall (2.4-meter-tall) array of LED lights.\nAlready the tech-laden sub has taken Cameron a record-breaking 5.1 miles (8.2 kilometers) straight down. That Tuesday dress rehearsal for Mariana made the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER the deepest-diving submersible in operation and the deepest-diving single-pilot sub in history.\nDesigned to sink strangely\u2014and efficiently\u2014upright, the 24-foot-tall (7-meter-tall) craft was eight years in the making. Among its advances is a specially designed foam that helps allow the new sub to weigh in at 12 metric tons, making it some 12 times lighter than the Trieste.\nCindy Van Dover, a marine biologist at Duke University and a former pilot of the deepwater submersible Alvin, said she hopes some of DEEPSEA CHALLENGER's technology will trickle down to the rest of the deep-ocean science community.\n\"I think some of the engineering feats that have to be overcome are some of the most exciting aspects of this project ... because going to such extreme depths will require some technological breakthroughs,\" said Van Dover, who is not involved in Cameron's dive attempt.\nDespite its innovations, the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER's spherical steel cockpit just barely accommodates its single occupant\u2014in this case, Cameron, the man behind Avatar, Titanic, The Terminator, and, fittingly, The Abyss.\nNothing in his fictional worlds could quite prepare him for real-life exploration, said Cameron, a veteran of dozens of deep-sea submersible dives.\n\"When you're making a movie, everybody's read the script and they know what's going to happen next,\" said Cameron, also a National Geographic Society explorer-in-residence, in a video statement. (The Society owns National Geographic News.)\n\"When you're on an expedition, nature hasn't read the script, the ocean hasn't read the script, and no one knows what's going to happen next.\"\nRetired U.S. Navy Capt. Don Walsh, who descended to Challenger Deep with Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard in the Trieste in 1960, said he was very pleased by the renewed interest in the Mariana Trench.\n\"I think it's about time,\" said Walsh, who is an advisor to the DEEPSEA CHALLENGE project and who will be with the Cameron team when the sub makes its Challenger Deep attempt.\n\"When Jacques and I surfaced from our deep dive, we were thinking about how long before someone else tries it, and we came to the conclusion that it would be about two years.\"\n(Video: James Cameron's Mariana Trench Mission.)\nMariana Trench Still a Mystery\nCameron and his team will head for the Mariana Trench only after completing more tests\u2014this time off the U.S. island territory of Guam (map), about 200 miles (320 kilometers) northeast of Challenger Deep.\nThe dive will be part of Cameron's DEEPSEA CHALLENGE project, a partnership with National Geographic and Rolex that will take him and a crew of engineers, scientists, and filmmakers to the deepest ocean regions on Earth.\nCameron, 57, said he hopes the project will help answer some surprisingly basic scientific questions about ocean trenches, such as whether fish can live in the sea's deepest reaches.\n(Despite a claimed sighting by a Trieste crewmember, the presence of fish in Challenger Deep is very much an open question. So far no robotic mission has spotted fish there.)\n\"We're gonna go down there with our cameras, our lights, and find the answers to some of those questions,\" Cameron said.\nCameron Under Pressure\nThe Mariana Trench is something of a 1,500-mile-long (2,550-kilometer-long) scar in the Pacific seafloor. (See pictures of the Mariana Trench region.)\nAt Challenger Deep, the trench plummets 6.8 miles (11 kilometers) down\u2014if Mount Everest were dropped here, its summit would be more than a mile (1.6 kilometers) underwater. (Animation: Cameron's Mariana Trench dive compressed into one minute.)\n\"It's a place we can't get to, and we don't like not being able to get to places,\" Duke's Van Dover said. \"It's something that gets to our psyche\u2014we want to reach the impossible.\"\nBecause of its extreme depth, the trench is perhaps the most inhumane place on Earth: cloaked in perpetual darkness, chilled to near freezing. At the bottom, Cameron's craft will be subjected to water pressures approaching 16,000 pounds per square inch (1,125 kilograms per square centimeter).\n\"It would be about the equivalent of turning the Eiffel Tower upside down and resting it on your big toe,\" DEEPSEA CHALLENGE team member Patricia Fryer told National Geographic News. Fryer is a geologist at the Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics & Planetology (HIGP).\nThe sub will actually shrink by about 2.5 inches (6.3 centimeters) during the descent.\nExpedition leader Cameron said, \"Every single fastener, every single way of joining structures on the sub had to be looked at very carefully, because otherwise stainless steel bolts would just shear as the sub compressed.\"\nCameron's \"Clown Car\"\nCameron isn't the only person dreaming of reaching the ocean's deepest point.\nU.K. magnate Richard Branson has built a two-seater sub resembling a stubby-winged airplane, which he says can survive a Challenger Deep descent. Also, the Triton \"luxury\" submersible company last year unveiled the Triton 36000/3 model, which would reportedly allow a three-person crew to make the journey.\nOf the current-day contenders, the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER looks as though it'll be first to the bottom\u2014and of course first to return.\nOnce Cameron flips a switch, an electromagnetic system is to jettison the heavy steel plates that allow the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER to sink\u2014sending the sub surfaceward like a cork.\nThe team estimates Cameron will be able to complete the descent in an hour and a half. The ascent should take about the same amount of time\u2014a far cry from the Trieste's five-hour descent and three-hour-plus ascent.\nThe trip, though, won't be a comfortable one for Cameron.\nIn the 43-inch-wide (109-centimeter-wide) steel \"pilot sphere,\" the explorer won't be able to extend his arms or legs. And he'll have to share that scant space with snacks, a camera, joysticks, and a change of warmer clothing (more on what Cameron will experience).\n\"It's like a clown car in there,\" Cameron said. \"You barely have room to get in, and then they hand you another 50 pounds [23 kilograms] of equipment.\" (See inside the pilot sphere.)\nTrieste co-pilot Walsh, who has seen the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER in person, said he was very impressed by its technology.\n\"When you look backward from when we dove ... it's like asking Orville Wright to compare his airplane to a 747,\" he said.\nNevertheless, when Cameron invited Walsh to sit in a mockup of the sub's cramped cockpit, he declined. \"I just told him my body doesn't fold that way anymore.\"\n\"Totally Alien\" Animals Await?\nDuring the expected six-hour sea-bottom sojourn, Cameron will be able to use the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER's 12 propeller-driven thrusters to move up and down and side to side and to hover in place.\nWith a folding robotic arm, he'll be able to collect rocks, animals, and seafloor core samples for later study on the surface. (Related: \"Life Is Found Thriving at Ocean's Deepest Point.\")\nBefore Cameron's dive, the team also plans to send unmanned \"landers\" to the trench bottom. Resembling skinny phone booths, the 13-foot-tall (4-meter-tall), camera-equipped submersibles will carry bait to lure sea creatures into plastic cylinders, which can be retrieved by the team when the landers surface.\n\"The animals on the inside are captured\" and even after ascent, \"still cold, still under pressure,\" Kevin Hardy, senior development engineer at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, California, and a member of the DEEPSEA CHALLENGE team, told National Geographic.\nHardy predicts some of the specimens will be \"totally alien\" to scientists. \"If you can imagine a wild animal, you'll find it down there.\"\nAlready, \"science fiction is mimicking what we see for real in the deep ocean,\" he added. \"And we haven't seen it all yet. There's a 'continent' we haven't explored down there.\"\nDuke\u2019s Van Dover is also excited about the scientific discoveries that could be lurking in the trench.\n\"Challenger Deep is one of those truly mysterious places where we're bound to discover many new species and different kinds of habitats that we haven't imagined before,\" she said.\n\"Many scientists would like to understand more about the pressure effects on physiology and biochemistry at those depths.\"\n(Read more about DEEPSEA CHALLENGE science.)\nWhy Send Cameron?\nWhile many of the scientific goals Cameron hopes to achieve with the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER could be accomplished with an unmanned sub, he believes the risk is worth it.\nPiloting a submersible remotely, \"you just don't get a sense of that situational awareness that you have when you're really down there,\" he said.\nHIGP's Fryer agreed, saying a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is no substitute for sending a human-occupied vehicle into the abyss.\n\"It's like the difference between night and day,\" Fryer said.\n\"The critical thing is to be able to take the human mind down into that environment, to be able to turn your head and look around to see what the relationships are between organisms in a community and to see how they're behaving, to turn off all the lights and just sit there and watch and not frighten the animals so that they behave normally.\n\"That is almost impossible to do with an ROV.\"\n(Listen: James Cameron on becoming a National Geographic explorer.)\nBuried Secrets of the Mariana Trench\nIn addition to the rare specimens that could be brought back for study, scientists say a Mariana Trench dive could help shed light on natural disasters and even the emergence of life on Earth.\nMost tsunamis, for example, result from earthquakes along faults called subduction zones, where one tectonic plate slowly slides beneath another, forming ocean trenches.\n\"What we've found by dredging the overriding plate on the inner slope of the [Mariana Trench] is that it exposes the upper part of the planet's mantle as well as the lower part of the Earth's crust and all the way up to the shallow crust,\" Fryer explained.\nClose looks at such slopes could lead to a better understanding of the geological conditions that control earthquakes and provide valuable clues about the makeup of our planet.\nSome scientists have also speculated that so-called mud volcanoes near the Mariana Trench could have served as incubators for the first life-forms on Earth. (See \"Major Deep-Sea Smokers Found\u2014'Evolution in Overdrive.'\")\n\"The amino acids that are essential for building the earliest cells are not stable at high temperatures\" such as those at volcanic vents along shallower ocean ridges, Fryer said.\nFor those crucial molecules, she said, \"you'd need a relatively cool environment and you'd need water\"\u2014conditions present at Mariana Trench mud volcanoes.\n(Related: \"'Gooey' New Mud Volcano Erupts From Arabian Sea.\")\n\"Of Course I'm Worried\"\nCameron is well aware of the dangers involved in the Challenger Deep endeavor, and his team has built several safety precautions into the sub.\nFor example, if there's a power failure, the metal weights are to fall away, allowing the sub to surface. And if the weights don't disengage normally, a wire connecting them to the sub will corrode within about 12 hours.\nCameron will also have the option of using a heat-based method to break the bolts holding the plates\u2014which furthermore can be electromagnetically disengaged via a signal from a research vessel at the surface.\nEven with multiple safeguards, Cameron isn't exactly carefree.\n\"Yeah, of course I'm worried,\" he said. \"Worry is a good thing when you're an explorer.\n\"I think when you're cavalier, when you take risk for granted\u2014that's when you're going to get bitten.\"\nRachael Jackson of National Geographic Channels International contributed reporting to this story.\nAdditional major support for the DEEPSEA CHALLENGE expedition was provided by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.",

The story has three parts with three different narrators and members enjoyed the suspense the author manages to build up in the first two parts. They found the last part a bit disappointing though this did not detract from their overall enjoyment of the story, which they found well constructed and entertaining.\nEverybody enjoyed \u201cThe Whale Caller\u201d by Zakes Mda (South Africa), which they described as a poetic, authentic and moving story about relationships. They loved the two protagonists and also the secondary characters (including the whale!) that populate the tale.\n\u201cZorro\u201d was considered the classic adventure story that was enjoyable from beginning to end. The quality of Isabel Allende\u2019s writing added to the pleasure the members had when reading it.\nThe least favourite was \u201cOn Beauty\u201d, though everyone found it a very easy read. Zadie Smith pays hommage to E. M. Forster and there are many themes from \u201cHoward\u2019s End\u201d in her novel, which readers of both found disconcerting.\nNicola was the only one to have read \u201cThe Hummingbird\u2019s Daughter\u201d by Luis Alberto Urrea (Mexico)! She has chosen it as her Coup de C\u0153ur Summer 2006, since she feels that it surpasses the four other books by far. The story has depth and detail that are not to be found in the others (though \u201cZorro\u201d does come close!).

        "raw_content": "Had a pretty interesting (and tiring) week. I don\u2019t know if I can do a proper rundown of events, but here goes nothing\u2026\nReese Lansangan Recording Session\nI got a surprise message from Reese Lansangan that afternoon if was free to once again document that night\u2019s recording session. I can\u2019t really say that it came out of nowhere. No, not really. I read a tweet from Reese to one of the Reese Interns, Mica, that she PMed her on Facebook. I thought nothing of it at the time, until I got Reese\u2019s message.\nI said that I could go and shoot. I asked Ling if he was going so I could hitch a ride. He said that he wasn\u2019t sure yet. I thought of just going alone. I\u2019d brave the Sunday EDSA traffic. I\u2019d brave that feeling of being out of place. I\u2019d brave the possible awkwardness caused by my oh-so dreary disposition. I\u2019d brave the woozy, medicated state I was in. I\u2019d brave the nicotine withdrawals my body was going through (I ended up smoking to suppress it.) I\u2019d brave it all. See, the day before, my trigger finger was itching to photograph music. And here comes the opportunity to do that? Oh, I\u2019m game. I\u2019m definitely game.\nI messaged Reese on both FB and text and asked her for the details, when and where. No replies. I figured she was busy. I scoured Twitter for possible answers and there was a conversation between her and Ling. Only one answer to my two questions was provided, 7:30pm. I had to assume that it\u2019s in the same studio. It was a safe assumption anyway as that\u2019s where the first recording session I documented was in.\nI left the house about an hour and a half before the time given. Ran into a bit of traffic, but nothing I can\u2019t shrug off. Besides, it was raining and I love solitary drives in the rain. I also needed the drive. I needed the time to think. I needed the time to prepare myself. I was going into unfamiliar territory and I needed to prep myself mentally and emotionally.\nThe first time I documented Reese\u2019s recording session, I was with Ling and he was the driver. I\u2019d like to commend myself for successfully not relying on Google Maps and not getting lost, but that would be a commendation that\u2019s underserved. I had to take a piss break at a gas station that I faultily assumed was at the corner of the main street leading towards the studio. If I didn\u2019t take that piss break, if I decided to hold it in until the studio, I may have gotten lost. After I peed the coffee away, I had this nagging voice at the back of my head that said \u201cdude, this isn\u2019t the right corner.\u201d I listened to said nagging voice and consulted Google Maps. I\u2019m glad I did.\nI got to the studio a bit early, around 7:00 pm. I had time to kill so I went to a supermarket nearby to buy a couple bottles of water to help with the wooziness. After killing more time by reading and rereading Tweets and trivial Facebook status updates, Reese finally got to reply to my Facebook message. She stated that she\u2019d be late. That she pushed back the recording time to around 9-9:30pm because she got caught up at a workshop she was in.\nI replied that I was already there. She was apologetic. I was a bit annoyed, but the annoyance didn\u2019t really last long. An inhale/exhale after and it was gone. Things happen. I was already there. I can wait in the car some more. No use fussing over things I have no control over.\nThe rain poured heavily just before 9:00pm. It was a downpour. Kept myself distracted by being paranoid that the rain might cause a flood and my car would be entrenched in rainwater, drowning myself in the process. Kept myself distracted by watching cars pass by hoping it was them. Didn\u2019t spot them. When the rain stopped at around 9:30, I exited the car and went in cos I had to pee again. Afterwards, I checked to see if someone was up in the studio already. I saw Kai in the stairs. Wasn\u2019t sure if it was her at first, but she called my attention and said that they were there already.\nI didn\u2019t see them come in. The rain hindered my usually hawk-like eyes from seeing what I was supposed to see. It was upsetting. More upsetting that anything that night.\nI climbed up the narrow staircase and opened the door to the studio where Josh and April/TheSunManager (!!!) were already settled in. Reese was inside the studio laying down guitar tracks for \u201cGrammar Nazi.\u201d I sat down to catch my breath, still wondering how the fuck I missed them go in. After a while, I unbagged my camera and started shooting. Reese spotted me through the studio\u2019s heavily glassed window and mouthed \u201cI\u2019m sorry\u201d and was genuinely apologetic for the delay. Whatever frustrations I had was replaced by a sense of relief that I was already there to do what I had to do. That I had another incredible opportunity, and the remarkable honor, to document the inner workings of the album production process of one of my favorite artists. That I get to watch other artists that I admire pitch in ideas and their opinions on the song that was being recorded.\nAs a music fan, I do consider myself lucky that I get to document Reese\u2019s recording process. Not a lot of people can say that they were there to photograph it, much less witness it.\nAs far as the photographic documentation went, the colored post process kicked my ass again. I wanted to process more photos in color because I do get the feeling that the subject wants colored photos. Truth be told, I wasn\u2019t really satisfied with the outcome of those photos. The lighting in the studio was also an issue. Maybe it\u2019s just me.\nElements Campers Night at Route 196\nI\u2019d heard about the gig the week before. I wanted to go, but Route 196 isn\u2019t exactly a stone\u2019s throw away from where I live. You need a long range ballistic missile to propel the stone. The gig had an amazing lineup of mostly singer/songwriters and one band that I love. Bullet Dumas. Reese Lansangan. Clara Benin. Mic Llave. Oh Flamingo.\nI posted a status update on my Facebook wall plugging the event. I posted that it\u2019s a can\u2019t miss gig and people from up North should go. I also said that I wanted to go but can\u2019t because Route is far away from me.\nI got a message from a high school friend of mine, one that I haven\u2019t seen in years (since high school, I think?) that we should go. I was cautiously hesitant at first. I don\u2019t really do well with people I\u2019m not familiar with anymore. I said yes, anyway, upon further prodding. I\u2019m glad I did. We bonded about life and life\u2019s complications. We had things in common, a shared darkness. Talking to her was almost therapeutic.\nAnyway, it was my first time at Route 196 and I had F-U-N. Legitimate fun. The company was instrumental in that. Didn\u2019t feel like I was alone in a crowded place. I got anxiety attacks, but they were minuscule. Saw a lot of familiar faces. Faces that I\u2019ve met and have become friends with in the indie music scene. Met a couple of music photographers I looked up to, as well. One of the bands that I love called me over and hired me to shoot at their EP launch on November. It was a good night.\nThere were a couple of glitches that night, however. I was just the right amount of drunk so my stuttering was manageable. I was feeling good. I was feeling confident. And I attempted to talk to a crush of mine and\u2026it was embarrassing. I found myself stuttering. I was incoherent, I think. That was glitch number one.\nGlitch number two: earlier that day, I read on the gig\u2019s event page that there would be an open mic after the performers. I sent a private message to the gig organizer indicating that I wanted to perform. So it was good and well. I really wanted to sing because I hadn\u2019t sung in quite some time. I needed to sing for myself. I was psyched up already. I didn\u2019t have my usual hesitations and stage anxieties. I was a hundred percent into it. If I haven\u2019t mentioned yet that crush was there, I\u2019m mentioning it now. If I have, I\u2019m mentioning it again.\nAs it turns out, the open mic was only for Elements Campers. That bummed the shit out of me because A. I was really looking forward to it. And B. it felt like another rejection from Elements (I applied last year, said \u201cfuck you\u201d to all my demons and all. Didn\u2019t get in.) There was a miscommunication from the organizers, of which Bullet Dumas was part of. The two, Bullet and Miguel, were apologetic.\nThose two glitches aside, I did have a fun night. I didn\u2019t feel as worse as my usual episodes. I felt like myself. The beer and the company helped a lot. Came home with a smile on my face. It was a victorious night, regardless of the incidents.\nAcoustic Night at Checkpoint. Open mic after.\nI was still buzzed and sleepy from the night before when I saw on the Checkpoint page that there would be another Acoustic Night w/ an Open Mic afterwards. I was definitely there. I figured \u201cperforming last night wasn\u2019t in the docket, but today, it is.\u201d The universe was kind to me. Or so I thought.\nIt was a spectacular failure. That\u2019s how I consider it, at least.\nI didn\u2019t have a setlist. Didn\u2019t think I needed it since it was an open mic. Ended up playing five songs. The first three were originals: Instead, Relapse, and a song that I\u2019ve never played in front of anyone before, Night Terrors. The last two were covers: Damien Rice\u2019s \u201c9 Crimes\u201d and Ryan Adams\u2019 \u201cCome Pick Me Up,\u201d complete with harmonica.\nI fucked up on the third song. I forgot the lyrics. To my own fucking song. I\u2019ll admit, playing \u201cNight Terrors\u201d was a risky move. One, as I\u2019ve said, I haven\u2019t played it live before. Two, I often struggle with singing that song cos it leaves me short of breath. Anyway, the pauses I had to take trying to remember the words were too fucking awkward. Had to do my best to fill the gap. It was upsettingly funny because I forgot the lyrics twice. In both times, I forgot the last line of the two verses.\nIt all went downhill from there. After that, I didn\u2019t know what to sing next. Settled with 9 Crimes as I\u2019ve already played it before. But by then, I was already out of it. I was already not \u201cthere.\u201d My heart wasn\u2019t in it anymore. I failed myself. Despite what the voices in my head were telling me to do, \u201cjust stop the misery! \u201cJust get off the stage! \u201cYou\u2019re embarrassing yourself!\u201d I still pushed through. I still played.\nA part of me wanted to get off the stage after Night Terrors. But I rarely play anymore and I knew that I needed to do it. I should\u2019ve just listened to the voices. Should\u2019ve just ended with Night Terrors.\nI was struggling with myself while I was on stage. My mind was preoccupied with wanting to abruptly end it and walk off and head to the restroom to punch the walls and cry. But I still kept at it. I was in autopilot. I knew the words and the chords to 9 Crimes and Come Pick Me Up, and I was in autopilot. I wasn\u2019t feeling it. The emotions weren\u2019t there.\nAfter the set, I wanted to smash my Guild on the wall. I curled up in the corner where I usually stay at when I\u2019m shooting there and threw a pity party for one. I ordered my fifth photographer\u2019s comp beer and drank and drank and drank. That was supposed to be my last beer for the night. I didn\u2019t want to risk having the last one in case I go off the rails again, but one of the bartenders offered. Insisted. She knew I needed it. God bless her.\nI drove back home with a heavy heart. Again. That was supposed to be the night where I\u2019d get be that one version of myself that truly made me happy.\nI knew I needed to talk to someone. Messaged a bunch of people who knows of my situation if they were still awake. Gladys replied, but the connection was sloppy. Ended up talking to the ex. She did her best to make me feel better, but I was too consumed by my failure to hear anything. Until she mentioned the word \u201cpizza.\u201d\nOh fucking God. That suddenly set bells off in my head. PIZZA.\nI was already in front of the house expecting another meltdown and upon hearing that one glorious word, I drove back out to Yellow Cab to order pizza. I\u2019d hung up the phone on the drive there and I only had one thought in mind: PIZZA. I told myself, \u201cif this doesn\u2019t work\u2026fuck you Universe.\u201d\nFunny thing, while I waiting for my PIZZA at Yellow Cab, I read a comment on one of my Facebook status updates from crush. (I seriously have to think of a codename for her)\nI was smiling like an idiot there. I suddenly forgot the colossal failure up on stage an hour before. The stormy weather my head was at disappeared.\nIt\u2019s really all about the tiny things, huh? No matter how stupid they might seem, how shallow. If it works, it works.\nThe pizza tasted so damn good.\nFriday \u2013 October 2, 2015\nFoundation Day at Checkpoint\nThat night, hands down, was the best Checkpoint gig I\u2019ve ever been to. I was shooting. I was drunk. I was drunk shooting. I was sociable. I was unusually talking to people \u2013 artists \u2013 that my personal and emotional hang ups would usually not permit me to. My constant dread in meeting new people wasn\u2019t there. I shook hands. I introduced myself. I was friendly. I felt that part of myself that have always wanted to come out of hiding and converse with people take over. It felt good.\nThe bands were good. The music was good. My trigger finger was shooting too much. There were music people from up North who was there.\nThere were minor attacks. That won\u2019t ever go away, I think. But it wasn\u2019t much of a bother. Except for one incident. One paranoia. It was a situation \u2013 a gesture \u2013 that I misread. It\u2019s all squared now, I think. I\u2019m just having a difficult time adjusting to my new environment, to my new life.\nCan\u2019t really do a play by playoff that night because I was in a drunken haze (and my mind\u2019s crashing from the Americano) but the bottom line is: it was a good night. I could use more of those.\nSunday \u2013 October 4, 2015\nStruggling. Again. But I\u2019m trying my damn best to focus on the victories from the past week. I\u2019m fighting.\nI\u2019m surviving.",

        "title": "DoD Admits It Works With Hollywood To Sell You War Propaganda \u2013 Nwo Report",
        "raw_content": "DoD Admits It Works With Hollywood To Sell You War Propaganda\nThe Department of Defence (DoD) admitted on Monday that they work closely with Hollywood in order to sell pro-war propaganda to the public.\nIn an astonishing admission, the DoD tweeted that officials are routinely deployed to work on films in order \u201cto ensure the military is portrayed correctly in films.\u201d\nThefreethoughtproject.com reports: Every government in the world, throughout history, has required an all-encompassing propaganda campaign to keep its citizens in line, especially when it comes to war and the military, the most destructive applications of government. Places like North Korea or China are great modern examples of this type of censorship and propaganda taken to extremes.\nThe early Nazi propaganda films from World War II usually come to most people\u2019s minds in discussions about propaganda but as technology and the study of human psychology have advanced, the rulers of governments everywhere have been able to refine the skill of creating a false reality for their subjects. Everyone likes to think that this type of thing only happens in some far away land or different time in history but this type of propaganda and media manipulation is alive and well today in America.\nIn the early 1950\u2019s, when modern media and television were becoming a mainstream phenomenon, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had just been formed. It quickly became one of their primary goals to use this new technology to influence public opinion. The first known CIA propaganda campaign called \u201cOperation Mockingbird\u201d began around this time, and it has been revealed through declassified documents that the strategies developed in this operation are still in use today.\nIn the 1970s, Congressional investigations and hearings revealed government connections with journalists and media organizations. During the hearings, CIA representatives refused to answer the questions while on the public record and asked to go over the details during a closed session. Footage of those hearings can be seen below:\nAs mentioned earlier, this type of activity is still alive and well today, whether or not it is under the mockingbird label. In 2011, emails from Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs, Philip J. Crowley, were made public, showing that the U.S. State Department was \u201cplanting\u201d a number of \u201cquestions and concerns\u201d with CBS News for a 60 minutes piece on WikiLeaks.\nIn recent years we have seen more military influence in large blockbuster movies since they are able to buy their way into the productions by offering up their tanks, vehicles, and weapons as props. The recent Transformers film was criticized by some as being a blatant advertisement for the US military, and it is on record that the Pentagon worked with the production team and gave them cheap access to their hardware. Also, judging from the way the film turned out it is highly likely that they were given some control of the script in return.\nPhil Strub has been the entertainment liaison at the Department of Defense since 1989, and it is well known in the industry that it is extremely difficult to make a movie about the military without going through him and allowing him to edit the script.\nFor the recent, \u201cSuperman: Man of Steel\u201d the writers were forced to go back to the drawing board after Strub determined that the script\u2019s portrayal of the military was \u201ccartoony,\u201d he said in an interview. Strub bragged that Warner Bros. flew him out to L.A. to offer him a revised version of the script so he would sign off on the film.\nStrub will automatically deny any films that portray the military or war in a negative light and most major studios play by the rules. However, there have been some famous blockbuster films that did not seek Strubs approval, most notably \u201cPlatoon\u201d and \u201cApocalypse Now.\u201d\nMilitary influence in the media is not always this simple though, for example, major military contractors like Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin or Boeing are able to control the narrative of the mainstream media with their advertising dollars. If you take notice, arms manufacturers have tons of commercials all over the mainstream news, but no average citizen is allowed to purchase rocket launchers or aircraft carriers, even in the very rare case that they would be able to afford something like that.\nThis brings up the question: why do these military contractors spend so much money on television advertisements? The answer is so they can use those advertising dollars as leverage against the broadcaster, in order to control how wars are presented in the news. If a broadcaster is being paid millions of dollars per month by Boeing to run their commercials then they aren\u2019t going to be able to say anything negative about the war, it\u2019s that simple.\nNext time you watch a Hollywood movie, remember that while the credits may say Warner Bros. or 20th Century Fox, the script has been approved by masters of propaganda in the CIA and US military to maintain their image\u2014in turn, maintaining their control.\nPrevious Previous post: LOL: Twitter Says It Wants To Be \u2018Most Trusted Service in the World\u2019\nNext Next post: NAACP Calls For National Gun Confiscation",

        "title": "New satellite images reveal activity at unidentified North Korean missile base \u2013 Nwo Report",
        "raw_content": "North Korea, WORLD NEWS\nNew satellite images obtained exclusively by CNN reveal North Korea has significantly expanded a key long-range missile base located in the mountainous interior of the country, offering yet another reminder that diplomatic talks with the US have done little to prevent Kim Jong Un from pursuing his promise to mass produce and deploy the existing types of nuclear warheads in his arsenal.\nThe satellite imagery offers evidence that the Yeongjeo-dong missile base and a nearby, previously unreported site remain active and have been continuously upgraded, underscoring the reality of just how far apart Washington and Pyongyang are on the issue of denuclearization despite five months of sporadic talks.\nWhile the base at Yeongjeo-dong has long been known to US intelligence agencies and analysts, researchers at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey told CNN that the images reveal construction on a new facility just seven miles away from the older site that had not been previously publicly identified.\n\u2018The base remains active\u2019\n\u201cSatellite images show that the base remains active. Moreover, in the past year North Korea has significantly expanded a nearby facility that appears to be another missile base,\u201d the Middlebury Institute report states, noting that it is unclear whether the two bases are separate, or whether one is subordinate to other.\nThe images indicate that North Korea was building an extremely large underground facility in 2017 and that this facility was still under construction as of August 2018.\n\u201cConstruction on the previously unidentified site has continued even after the Singapore Summit\u201d between Kim and President Donald Trump in June, Jeffrey Lewis of the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, one of the analysts that identified the site, told CNN. \u201cWhatever Kim says about his desire for denuclearization, North Korea continues to produce and deploy nuclear armed missiles.\u201d\nThe site\u2019s unique location makes it a strong candidate to receive North Korea\u2019s newest long-range missiles, including those that can carry nuclear weapons and can strike the United States, according to Lewis and his colleague David Schmerler.\nUS officials have long said they are not surprised by similar open source findings, but have declined to offer any additional response when other sites have been identified.\n\u201cWe watch North Korea very closely. We continue to support the diplomatic process. We will not discuss matters of intelligence,\u201d Pentagon spokesperson Lt. Col. Chris Logan told CNN.\nThe State Department declined to comment, saying it doesn\u2019t discuss intelligence matters.\nSouth Korea\u2019s Defense Ministry, citing the country\u2019s Joint Chiefs of Staff, acknowledged Yeongjeo-ri is a missile base and is \u201cone of the important North Korean sites that is being tracked and surveilled in cooperation with the United States.\u201d\nA spokesman for the ministry refused to comment further, saying \u201cit is not appropriate for our military to officially acknowledge the content of a foreign media report.\u201d\nWhile Kim is not violating any agreement with the US or South Korea by continuing to produce and deploy existing types of missiles, the identification of yet another active North Korean missile base comes at a time when some members of the Trump administration are declaring that Pyongyang has failed to uphold its end of the bargain thus far.\nNational security adviser John Bolton said Tuesday that Trump believes he should hold a second summit with Kim because the North Korean leader hasn\u2019t lived up to commitments he made during their first meeting.\nBolton said the US would press ahead with a second meeting shortly after the start of the new year \u2014 saying, \u201cJanuary, February\u201d \u2014 in the hope of making further progress. He said the Trump administration would not lift hefty economic sanctions against the regime until then.\nTrump has often touted North Korea\u2019s lack of ballistic missile tests in recent months as a sign of diplomatic progress and said Kim\u2019s offer to dismantle some testing facilities signals the North Korean leader is serious about denuclearizing.\nBut while Trump maintains that Kim committed to fully denuclearize during their summit in Singapore this summer, the truth is that the meeting only yielded a vaguely worded agreement, in which the two leaders pledged to build a \u201clasting and stable peace regime on the Korean Peninsula\u201d and to \u201cwork toward complete denuclearization\u201d of the peninsula.\nThe Trump administration has also continued to insist on the elimination of North Korea\u2019s ballistic missile programs upfront \u2014 a nonstarter for a nation that remains deeply suspicious of the outside world and would never leave itself strategically vulnerable simply for the promise of economic gain.\nWhile closing test facilities would make it harder for North Korea to develop new types of warheads, that step would do little to prevent Kim from continuing to mass produce and deploy existing types of nuclear-armed missiles, as he publicly said in January he would continue to do.\n\u201cThose missiles are being deployed at bases throughout North Korea, many of which have long been known to outside analysts. Any denuclearization agreement would require North Korea to allow international inspectors to determine that these units are no longer armed with nuclear weapons,\u201d according to the report from Lewis and Schmerler.\n\u201cThe Trump Administration has publicly promised to secure access to North Korea military facilities as part of any agreement,\u201d the report states.\nBolton\u2019s comments Tuesday underscored the lack of progress the US has made in moving North Korea closer to the complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization Washington is seeking, and the concessions it has been making to Pyongyang, even as Trump has stressed the warmth of his relationship with Kim.\nLast month, Vice President Mike Pence told NBC News that the US will not require North Korea to provide a full list of its nuclear and missile sites before Trump meets again with Kim.\nWashington and Pyongyang had been locked in a diplomatic standoff for weeks over which side would make concessions first. Analysts said that by relaxing its demands ahead of a second summit, the US may have blinked first.\nPence spoke days after the release of additional new commercial satellite images identifying more than a dozen undeclared North Korean missile operating bases, another sign that Pyongyang is continuing to move forward with its ballistic missile program.\nOne such facility is the missile base near Yeongjeo-dong, a site that has long concerned US and South Korean officials and the subject of the analysis of the new images released Wednesday.\nIn 2000, the United States sought access to this and other missile bases as part of an agreement to end North Korea\u2019s missile program \u2014 and was rebuffed by Kim Jong Un\u2019s father, Kim Jong Il.\nThe base itself is strung along a narrow valley. A headquarters area is positioned at the mouth of the valley, the images show.\n\u201cUp through the valley there are a pair of hardened \u201cdrive-through\u201d shelters that were covered with soil and had trees planted on them to disguise them. In front of the pair of drive throughs, there is a concrete pad that was also covered in dirt,\u201d according to the analysis by Lewis and Schmerler.\n\u201cThere are five entrances to underground tunnels that may be used to store missiles,\u201d the report states. \u201cAround 2010, North Korea constructed a pair of large drive-through suitable for large ballistic missiles. These shelters are similar to the ones seen at the older portion of the Yeongjeo-dong base.\u201d\nCNN\u2019s Ryan Browne, Jake Kwon and Jennifer Hansler contributed reporting\nactivityNorth Korean missile base\nPrevious Previous post: SPY SECRETS Truth about CIA\u2019s illegal MKUltra mind-control experiments\nNext Next post: President Trump gets the last laugh on Macron with Paris burning after his rebuke of \u2018America First\u2019",

        "raw_content": "How Nicolas Cage blew $150 million on mansions, his own private island \u2014 and a real dinosaur skull\nCNBC 20 January 2018\nSascha Steinbach | Getty Images. From a haunted house to shrunken pygmy heads, Nick Cage has bought it all.\nBest known for his roles in movies such as \"National Treasure\" and \"Leaving Las Vegas,\" Nicolas Cage was once a top earner in Hollywood, worth $150 million. But Cage didn't hold on to his fortune for long. He squandered it away on a string of expensive and often eccentric purchases, eventually facing foreclosure on several properties and owing the IRS $6.3 million in property taxes. Now worth around $25 million, Cage is taking roles left and right to help pay off his debts. As chronicled in CNBC's \"The Filthy Rich Guide,\" here's a glimpse at some of Cage's craziest purchases. Cage once owned 15 residences, including a $25 million waterfront home in Newport Beach, California, a $15.7 million countryside estate in Newport, Rhode Island, and an $8.5 million abode in Las Vegas, pictured below. He also purchased, for $3.4 million, the infamous LaLaurie mansion in New Orleans, known as one of the most haunted houses in America.\nOver in Europe, Cage purchased not one but two castles for $10 million and $2.3 million, respectively.\n$3 million got him a deserted island in the Bahamas.\nHe also sprung for a nine-foot-tall burial tomb.\nAnd even bought shrunken pygmy heads.\nHe blew $450,000 on the late shah of Iran's Lamborghini ....\n... and another $150,000 on a pet octopus.\nHe spent yet another $150,000 on the first Superman comic.\nAllegedly, Cage also once outbid fellow actor Leonardo DiCaprio for a 70-million-year-old dinosaur skull. The $276,000 artifact turned out to be stolen, however, and Cage had to return it to the Mongolian government.\nThis is an updated version of a previously published article .

At 10 p.m., when water is around 24\u00b0C (75\u00b0F), Acropora digitifera corals in the southernmost part of Japan start to release their eggs and sperm, known as gametes, exactly at the same time in a process called synchronized spawning.\nSince corals cannot move to find a partner, they let their reproductive cells free float in the ocean, hoping for an encounter. Understanding how the resulting newborn coral larvae migrate and settle is crucial to protect our beautiful coral reef.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Big Car Moment!!\nI love Books! \u2192\nYes, you read that correctly. I am training for a triathlon. Me, the person who has never run in her life. (Ok, there was that one time I was trying to catch a train in Germany with 3 other people and two children, but the details are really fuzzy and I\u2019m pretty sure I lost consciousness so it doesn\u2019t count.) Notice I didn\u2019t say WHEN I\u2019d be doing the triathlon, but I am going to start training. I\u201dve already recruited one victim friend, yay Kim!!! and I\u2019m hoping that I can entice some others\u2026any takers? If you want to sign on to just do the training, that\u2019s ok too.\nThere is a sprint distance (an all woman event) in the summer, which might be doable, but realistically, I am looking at next fall or possibly the following summer. I need to get in serious shape before, and of course for me that means visiting at least 45 doctors for clearance. I found a good resource online, but I\u2019m still looking for other training plans and information. Please share if you know of any.\nThere are many levels of triathlons \u2014 in case you don\u2019t know much about them (I didn\u2019t) here\u2019s the dirt:\nSo the sprint distance will be my first foray into the world of triathlons. At. Some. Point. The first thing I need to do is set a training plan (and stick to it as much as possible). I\u2019m working on setting that schedule soon. What is it they say about habits? They take 21 days to set? That seems like a long time to me. I was kind of hoping that it would just happen over a week, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019m that lucky.\nThe next thing I need to do is buy a good bike. I have some time to think about this, since I won\u2019t be biking outside in the winter (me + shoes + ice = bad, I can\u2019t imagine me + bike + ice). The fitness center I go to has a good selection of treadmills, bikes and the devil incarnate aka the elliptical. (HOW?? WHY??) so I will be able to use the bikes there as well as the pool. We have a treadmill at home that\u2019s actually being used as something other than a cat bed, so as long as I can keep that up, I\u2019ll be ok. The problem is that I prefer to exercise in the morning, at least the treadmill part, but it\u2019s been so cold in the morning (and I\u2019ve been up way too late (reading, watching tv, blogging, chatting, working on secret photo projects) that I haven\u2019t been walking in the mornings.\nOk, I\u2019m going to get some spaghetti sauce going in the CrockPot and then we\u2019re heading out with Jason to see the new Bond movie!\n4 Responses to I\u2019m training for a triathlon!\nVictim, hehe\nWe totally need a night out this month, maybe between Christmas and New Years before we start training. Or a night in with a big pot of psgetti.\nI want an elliptical machine. They make my butt muscles feel funny!\nDefinitely. Let\u2019s plan something for that week. We can do a night out AND a night in with spaghetti. I\u2019ll be home, so I can go all out for dinner. I\u2019ve been working on setting a training schedule\u2026but it\u2019s all on paper. Does that count?? \ud83d\ude42\nAlright, I\u2019ll do it! Seriously it has always been one of my secret life goals to do a triathlon! The swimming and biking parts I can do without training (got quite a bit of both in my past) but the running part \u2026 at this point I can\u2019t even run half the length of my drive way! Granted it\u2019s pretty long, but still \ud83d\ude26 Are you in charge of keeping track of our progress??\nreally? ok, I will work on our schedule this weekend. I need to get in touch with my other friend and we\u2019ll start planning our attack! I\u2019m excited about this and needed a kick in the pants, too \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Home Injuries Sports Injuries: Why You Shouldn\u2019t Play Through the Pain\nSports Injuries: Why You Shouldn\u2019t Play Through the Pain\nSports injuries, though unintentional, are incredibly common. Each year about 12 million people between the ages of 5 and 22 suffer a sport-related injury. Numbers are high among adults, as well. In 2012 alone, there were nearly 80,000 basketball injuries and more than 40,000 baseball or softball injuries among individuals between the ages of 25 and 40. The prevailing culture pushes athletes to play through the pain, particularly in highly competitive sports. If you\u2019re thinking of just pushing through, consider some of these compelling reasons to slow down.\nSports Injuries are Often Serious\nThough athletes don\u2019t always realize it at first, many sports injuries have potentially serious consequences. According to a Safe Kids Worldwide study, concussions and head injuries account for 12 percent of youth sports injuries, while broken and fractured bones make up 13 percent, and sprains and strains account for another 37 percent. The potential complications of these injuries can\u2019t be understated. A concussion can progress to second impact syndrome, which results in rapid and often fatal brain swelling. An untreated fracture can lead to bone deformity or permanent nerve damage.\nYou Can\u2019t Always Tell the Severity\nAthletes often underestimate an injury\u2019s severity, thinking they can push through the pain when their bodies really need rest and treatment. In 2011, high school football player Nate Stein took a hit during a game. Though he heard a pop, he quickly dismissed it and kept playing. Later that night he was taken to the hospital with a fractured vertebra.\nIn a high school field hockey game in 2013, Brie Boothby was struck on the side of the head with a stick. Though she blacked out, she continued to play through the game. She later found out that she had suffered a serious concussion and permanent brain injuries.\nMost People are Ill-Equipped to Handle Injuries\nThough you\u2019d like to believe that your coach or teammates know how to recognize the signs of a serious injury, this isn\u2019t always the case. The Safe Kids Worldwide study revealed that 23 percent of youth sports coaches don\u2019t do anything to prevent injuries. Additionally, less than half are certified in how to prevent and recognize sports injuries. Rather than pulling injured players out, many coaches report that they\u2019ve knowingly put them back in the game. Fifty-three percent of coaches have faced pressure from a parent to put an injured player back in the game.\nIgnoring the Injury Could End Your Career\nThough you might face pressure to continue playing with a sports injury, the best move is always to take yourself out of the game until you\u2019ve seen a doctor. A medical professional can properly diagnose your injury and give you a solid plan for recovery. If you push through and try to play with an injury, you could do permanent harm. You may even ultimately ruin your chances of playing in college and beyond.\nIf you\u2019re proactive about your sports injuries and seek immediate treatment, you can minimize the permanent effects of the injury and protect your body for future athletics.\nPrevious articleDo I Have Fibromyalgia or Lupus?\nNext articleDamaging Myths About Chronic Pain\n5 Common Basketball Injuries and Treatment\nThe 5 Most Common Football Injuries (and How to Prevent Them)\nDon\u2019t Risk Eye Damage During the Solar Eclipse",

        "raw_content": "September 25, 2017 September 25, 2017 by pastorallende\tLeave a comment\nWhen [Jesus] entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, \u201cBy what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?\u201d\nToday\u2019s reflection celebrates one year of Monday Musings. We began on the first Monday in October of 2016.\nAs I sit down each week to write this weekly reflection, I am guided to some extent by a quote attributed to the theologian Karl Barth, that one should \u201chold the Bible in one hand, and the newspaper in the other.\u201d\nThe more accurate version of that quote is: \u201cTake your Bible and take your newspaper, and read both. But interpret newspapers from your Bible.\u201d\nI must confess, that has been a challenge these last several weeks. So much has happened that it is difficult to prioritize one issue over another. Natural disasters have dominated the headlines; but the political arena has presented its share of anguish, drama, and yes, entertainment. Some of the remarks that we hear out of Washington would be funny, if they weren\u2019t at times embarrassingly sad.\nIn this age of social media, everyone \u2013 not the least of which is the current occupant in the White House \u2013 is quick with an opinion on just about everything. Facebook, twitter, e-mail, Instagram, Pinterest, androids, blue tooth, and all kinds of other technological wizardry; have made me question whether my words would bring any more clarity to a situation, or simply add to the noise.\nI must first consider my audience. How Scripture informs me may not necessarily be how it speaks to those of you who regularly read my thoughts. After all, the makeup of the ELCA churches in the Northeastern Ohio Synod hardly reflects the rest of the population. Most of our congregations are suburban and rural. We have very little presence in the urban areas of our 20 counties.\nThat motivated me to ask a friend of mine recently for some feedback on a few of my recent writings. He is a retired pastor whose opinion I value perhaps more highly than any other human on earth. He wrote back the following, which I received as affirmation:\n\u201cAs long as they continue to read and to listen, they are participating in the pastoral dialogue that moves the Church forward.\u201d\nAnd that is my hope \u2013 that you, the reader, continue to engage in this weekly exchange of ideas. Although it is mostly one-sided \u2013 I write, you read \u2013 I welcome your response to anything I write. Some of you already do that. It calls me to accountability, which, admittedly, is not always easy or comfortable for me.\nIn our life together, there are bound to be tensions, there are bound to be anxieties, there are bound to be conflicts. But pain and anxiety is part of the life of people who want to grow in their service and in their relationship to Christ. Dialogue is important. As long as people maintain open lines of communication, there is always room for reconciliation. It is essential that we make time for each other, especially for those people with whom we disagree. The moment we cut each other off, we end all hope for understanding.\nThe Gospel lesson for this upcoming October 1, the 17th Sunday after Pentecost, is a vivid illustration of that issue. The Pharisees\u2019 questioning of Jesus\u2019 authority prompts Jesus to launch into a parable of a landowner had two sons and asked them to go work in the vineyard. The first one said he wouldn\u2019t but did. The other said he would but did not. So, Jesus asks his listeners, \u201cWhich of the two did the will of his father?\u201d\nThat\u2019s a question we all need to ask ourselves as Monday Musings celebrates its one-year anniversary. But we need to ask it in a more personal, more direct way. To what is Christ calling us, his church, today? And how are we answering that call?\nMy blessing this week is patterned after the assigned second reading of Paul\u2019s letter to the Philippians.\nThis week and always, may we think of ways we can restore or build relationships with each other by humbly serving, looking to the needs of others, putting others first and ourselves last, emptying ourselves and taking the form of Christ\u2019s servants. In our relationships with one another, let the same mind be in us that was in Christ Jesus.\nPrevious Entry:SEPTEMBER 18, 2017\nNext Entry:OCTOBER 16, 2017",

Assignors: ARAI, RYUICHI, MATSUI, SHINYA, SAKAKI, MAMORU\nA recording medium is provided which has a recording surface having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% according to JIS Z8741 and a Munsell lightness of at least 7.5 according to JIS Z8721. The recording medium may comprise an ink-receiving layer formed thereon. A recording method is also provided which employ the above mentioned recording medium.\nThe present invention relates to a recording medium best suited for recording with inks and excellent in ink-receiving properties and in the distinctness and other quality of recorded full-color images and to a recording method utilizing the recording medium.\nThe ink-jet recording process comprises ejecting droplets of recording liquid by various techniques (e.g. the electrostatic attraction technique, the technique of providing mechanical vibration or displacement to the recording liquid by using piezoelectric elements, and the technique of heating the recording liquid to produce a foam and utilizing the foaming pressure), and causing parts or all of the droplets to deposit to a recording medium such as paper. This process draws attention as a recording method capable of high speed printing and multicolor printing, with less noise generation.\nAqueous inks are chiefly used as recording liquids for ink-jet recording from the standpoint of safety and recording characteristics, and a polyhydric alcohol or the like is often added to these inks in order to prevent the nozzle clogging and to improve the discharge stability.\nRecording media hitherto used for ink-jet recording are ordinary paper and sheets called ink-jet recording papers which are made by forming porous ink-receiving layers on base paper. However, various sophisticated characteristics are increasingly demanded also for recording media with the improvement of ink-jet recorders in functions, such as the speedup of recording and the development of multicolor recording, and with the spreading use of ink-jet recorders. That is, recording medium for ink-jet recording need to satisfy the following fundamental requirements in order to record good quality images with high resolution.\n(1) The recording media should absorb ink as rapidly as possible.\n(2) When ink dots overlap each other, the recording media should function so that the later applied ink will not diffuse into the previously marked ink dot.\n(3) Ink diffusion on the recording media should not be so great as to enlarge the diameter of ink dots more than necessary.\n(4) Ink dots on the recording media should have good circularity and the circumferences of the dots should be smooth.\n(5) Ink dots on the recording media should exhibit high O.D. (optical density) and the outline of each dot should not be blurred.\nIn addition, the following requirements need to be satisfied in order to attain such image quality of high resolution by multicolor ink-jet recording as to be comparable to that of color photographs.\n(6) The coloring components of ink should be able to develop excellent colors on a recording medium.\n(7) The ink-fixing ability of the recording media should be superior since ink droplets as many as the number of ink colors may overlap one another.\nNo recording medium satisfying all of these requirements has not been known yet.\nMost of the conventional recording media for surface image observation purposes are provided with a porous ink-receiving surface layer, the cells of which serve to receive recording liquids and fix the recording agents thereof. Since the recording agents penetrate deep into the ink-receiving layer, the recorded images are low in distinctness.\nWhen the surface of the ink-receiving layer is non-porous, on the contrary, nonvolatile components of ink remain such as polyhydric alcohols on the surface of the layer for many hours after recording thus long times being required for drying and fixing the ink. Therefore, clothes, if brought into contact with the recorded image, will be stained and the image may be impaired.\nAn object of the invention is to provide a recording medium superior particularly in ink-receiving properties and in distinctness of recorded images as well as a recording method utilizing the recording medium.\nAnother object of the invention is to provide a recording medium on which ink dots uniform in diameter and in optical density and superior in contrast can be obtained, and a recording method utilizing the recording medium.\nA further object of the invention is to provide a recording medium on which an image giving perspective feeling and high-quality sensation can be recorded, and a recording method utilizing the recording medium.\nThe above and other objects of the invention can be achieved with the following recording media and method.\nAccording to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a recording medium which has a recording surface having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741 and a Munsell lightness of at least 7.5 as measured in accordance with JIS Z8721.\nAccording to another aspect of the invention, there is provided a recording medium comprising a substrate and an ink-receiving layer formed thereon, wherein a recording surface of the ink-receiving layer has a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741 and a Munsell lightness of at least 7.5 as measured in accordance with JIS Z8721.\nAccording to further aspect of the invention, there is provided a recording method comprising forming droplets of recording liquids and causing the droplets to deposit onto a recording medium, characterized in that a recording surface of the recording medium has a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741 and a Munsell lightness of at least 7.5 as measured in accordance with JIS Z8721.\nAn essential prerequisite for the recording medium of the invention is that the recording surface thereof should have a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741.\nWhen records such as prints, photographs, and written records are illuminated directly or indirectly with diffused light, the recorded images on the records reflect parts of the light and absorb other parts, thereby diffused light corresponding to the images being radiated.\nFor instance, when illuminated, a completely glossless record reflects light to produce diffused light flux in a complete spherical form relative to the recorded surface regardless of the incident angle distribution of illuminating light.\nMoreover, even if a record absorbing 100% of the incident light is made on a recording medium, about 5% of the light will cause diffuse reflection according to Frenel's formula before arriving at absorption sites.\nAccordingly, a record which absorbs actually 95% of the incident light will exhibit an apparent optical density (O.D) as low as about 1.0 even if the real O.D. of the record is 1.3.\nOn the recording medium of the invention, however, having a specular gloss of at least 30%, the apparent O.D. will be about 1.2, the lowering of the apparent O.D. being little. On the other hand, on the glossy surface of the medium, a distinct image of high quality can be recorded, since such a surface is smooth and gives an improved degree of resolution.\nAnother prerequisite for the recording medium of the invention is that the Munsell lightness should be at least 7.5 as measured in accordance with JIS Z8721. A low lightness is not desirable since it makes the entire image dark and results in a small difference of the reflectivity between a recorded portion and non-recorded portion even with a highest O.D. value, thus resulting an image of low contrast and low mellowness.\nIn consequence, the recording medium of the invention has a lightness of at least 7.5, preferably at least 8.0, particularly preferably at least 8.5.\nWhen a recording medium in the invention is made of a substrate and an ink-receiving layer, the surface smoothness of the substrate is important to provide a sufficient gloss to the recording surface and attain uniform diameters of ink dots.\nThus, the Bekk smoothness of the substrate, as measured in accordance with JIS P8119, is desirably at least 50 sec., preferably at least 60 sec., for the purpose of attaining uniform diameters of ink dots.\nWhen a recording medium made by coating a substrate having a Bekk smoothness of less than 50 sec. with an ink-receiving layer is used for ink-jet recording, the diamters of ink dots will be nonuniform and no adequate dot O.D. will be attainable. This is because the ink-receiving layer formed on the substrate having a smoothness of less than 50 sec. exhibits a great nonuniformity of thickness on account of the great roughness of the substrate surface.\nOn the contrary, when ink-jet recording is conducted on the recording medium of the invention comprising a substrate having Bekk smoothness of at least 50 sec., uniform dot diameters and dot O.D. will be attainable because of the small variation in the thickness of the ink-receiving layer. Accordingly, images superior in dot resolution, distinctness, and contrast will be obtained. Additionally, the smooth surface of the substrate will make it possible to control the thickness of the ink receiving layer and the diameters of the dots. Moreover, a small amount of coating material is sufficient to form the ink-receiving layer, because the layer can be made uniform and thin. Further the recording medium comprising a substrate having a Bekk smoothness of at least 500 sec. exhibits a high gloss and an image of high quality and giving perspective sensation can be recorded on the medium.\nFor the smoothing treatment of substrates having low surface smoothness, well-known means, may be employed such as a machine calendering, supercalendering and gloss calendering.\nIn order to secure the circularity and gloss of ink dots and the uniformity of the layer thickness, the roughness of the substrate surface to be in contact with the ink-receiving layer should not exceed 20 \u03bcm, expressed in terms of the maximum height per a base length of 2.5 mm, as measured in accordance with JIS B0601. The recording medium constituted of a substrate overlaid with an ink-receiving layer having the construction described later satisfies the foregoing various property requirements for ink-jet recording media. Moreover, when ink dots are marked on such a recording medium with droplets of the same ink in the same amounts under the same recording conditions, dots generally uniform in diameter and in O.D. and more distinct images with good contrast can invariably be obtained.\nIn other words, images exhibiting good distinctness and good contrast are hardly obtainable on the recording medium formed by laminating an ink-receiving layer having the construction described later, on a substrate surface having such a roughness that the maximum height per a base length of 2.5 mm exceeds 20 \u03bcm as measured in accordance with JIS B0601. Reasons for this are as follows:\n(1) The surface of the ink-receiving layer, formed on the substrate surface having such a roughness as mentioned above, has a rough state nearly corresponding to the roughness of the substrate surface. When ink-jet recording is performed on such a rough surface of the ink-receiving layer, the circumferences of the resulting ink dots will be often deformed or jagged, that is, ink dots having tood circularity and smooth circumferences will be hardly obtained.\n(2) Uniform thickness of the laminated ink-receiving layer is difficult to obtain, the absorbability and diffusion state of an ink vary from site to site on the surface of the ink-receiving layer, and hence the dot diameter and O.D., each of which should be definite when droplets of the same ink are applied in the same amounts, vary from dot to dot.\nIn contrast to this, the recording medium of the invention gives good shapes of ink dots as stated above; since the used substrate has such a smooth surface that nearly equal diameters and densities of ink dots will be obtained when droplets of the same ink are applied in the same amounts under the same recording conditions, the above-mentioned problems are solved and superior quality images with high resolution can be obtained by ink-jet recording.\nMoreover, a smoother and glossier recording surface can be formed, and an image of higher quality with more perspective sensation can be recorded on the recording surface, by using a substrate which has such a smooth surface that the maximum height per a base length of 2.5 mm is up to 6 \u03bcm, even when an ink-receiving layer of the same construction as above is laminated on the substrate.\nWhen a recording medium is made by using a substrate having a rougher surface than the substrate to be used in the invention, voids are liable to develop between the ink-receiving layer and the substrate as the result of the shrinkage of the resins in the drying and/or cooling step following lamination of the ink-receiving layer. These voids tend to cause the scaling or flaking of the ink-receiving layer from the substrate. If such a defect is present, an recorded image will be markedly impaired.\nOn the contrary, the recording medium of the invention has the structure in which an ink-receiving layer is accurately formed on a substrate surface and adheres intimately thereto, since the substrate surface has such smoothness as mentioned above. Therefore, the recording medium of the invention scarcely suffers from such a defect as the scaling or flaking of the ink-receiving layer from the substrate, thus solving the above problem.\nWhen an opaque substrate is used in the invention, its opacity needs to be at least 70%, preferably at least 90% as measured in accordance with JIS P8138. If the opacity is less than 70%, the recorded image will be dark and obscure, since transmittance of the incident light through the recording medium is high and a small proportion of the light is therefore reflected from the record.\nOn the other hand, the ink-receiving layer needs to have an opacity not higher than that of the substrate. In general, dyes in ink droplets applied to the surface of an ink-receiving layer penetrate and diffuse thereinto and held in dispersed form therein. Accordingly, if the ink-receiving layer has a high opacity, a large proportion of the incident light will be reflected by the ink-receiving layer, and consequently, a small proportion of the light will be reflected after arriving at the dyes dispersed in the ink-receiving layer. As the result, the recorded image will look whitish and dull without distinctness.\nFor these reasons, it is desirable for obtaining a highly distinct image that the ink-receiving layer be more transparent while the substrate exhibits a higher reflectivity to incident light. That is, the ink-receiving layer needs to have an opacity not higher than that of the substrate, and it is desirable in the invention that the difference in opacity therebetween be larger.\nThe substrate used in the invention may be formed of any suitable material hitherto known. Suitable transparent substrates include, e.g. films or plates of polyester resins, diacetate resins, triacetate resins, acrylic resins, polycarbonate resins, polyvinyl chloride resins, polyimide resins, Cellophane (trademark) and Celluloid (trademark), and glass plates. Suitable opaque substrates include, e.g. ordinary paper, clothes, wood plates, metal plates, opaque films, synthetic papers, and further products of treating the transparent substrates to make them opaque.\nThe ink-receiving layer used in the invention may be formed of one or more materials, as desired, having affinity for water and polyhydric alcohols, which are liquid components of inks. Such materials include natural resins, e.g. polyvinyl alcohol albumin, gelatin, casein, starch, cationic starch, gum arabic, and sodium alginate and synthetic resins, e.g. polyamide, polyvinylpyrrolidone and quaternary salts thereof, polyethyleneimine, polyvinylpyridinium halide, melamine resin, polyurethane, carboxymethylcellulose, polyester, SBR latex, NBR latex, polyviny formal, polyvinyl methacrylate, polyvinylbutyral, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl acetate, phenolic resin, and alkyd resin.\nFor the purpose of further improving the ink receptivity of the ink-receiving layer or opacifying the layer, a filler can be dispersed therein such as silica, clay, talc, diatomaceous earth, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, aluminum silicate, synthetic zeolite, alumina, zinc oxide, lithopone, and satin white.\nSuitable mixing ratios of the filler to the resin are 1.5 to 0. The mixing ratio of more than 1.5 is undesirable since it lowers the gloss of the recording surface, the distinctness of the image, and the contrast.\nThe ink-receiving layer can be formed in the following ways: Preferably, the resin and, if necessary, the filler mentioned above, are dissolved or dispersed in a suitable solvent to prepare a coating liquid, which is then applied on the above-mentioned transparent type of substrate by a conventional coating method, e.g. the roll coating, rod bar coating, spray coating, or air-knife coating method, and then the coating product is dried quickly. Alternatively, a mixture of the resin and the filler is applied by hot melt coating, or a sheet for use as the ink-receiving layer is formed separately from the above materials and laminated with the above substrate.\nBesides the above coating methods, the cast coating method may be applied as occasion demands.\nThe thickness of the ink-receiving layer is generally about 0.1 to 200 \u03bcm, preferably about 5 to 100 \u03bcm.\nThe present invention has been described above with reference to typical embodiments of the recording medium of the invention. However, it is a matter of course that the recording medium is not limited to these embodiments. In any of the embodiments, the ink-receiving layer and/or a protective layer formed thereon may contain various known additives such as a dispersant, a fluorescent dye, a pH adjusting agent, an antiforming agent, a lubricant, a preservative, and a surfactant.\nThe present invention is illustrated in more detail with reference to the following examples. In these examples, parts are all based on weight.\nOn an art paper (supplied by Oji Paper Co., Ltd.; tradename OK Art Post) substrate, the following composition was applied by means of a bar coater so as to obtain a coating of 1.5 \u03bcm dry thickness.

The case where at least 15 of the panelists answered \"Yes\" to this question was marked with o, and other cases were marked with x.\nTABLE 4______________________________________Evaluation   Recording mediumitem    p        q        r      s      t______________________________________Ink fixing   \u22661 min            \u22661 min                     \u22661 min                            \u22661 min                                   \u22661 mintimeO.D. of  1.3      1.2      1.3    0.7    0.8ink dotOpacity of   93.2     93.2     97.8   94.7   93.2substrate(%)Opacity of    2.6     40.2      4.0   95.1   96.1ink-receiv-ing layer(%)Gloss   72       61       78     18     6Munsell 9.0      8.1      9.2    9.3    8.2lightnessPanel test   o        o        o      x      x______________________________________\nAs demonstrated above, ink-jet recording on the recording medium having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30% as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741 and a Munsell lightness of at least 7.5 as measured in accordance with JIS Z8721 provides images high in O.D. and in contrast, superior in distinctness, and giving mellowness and high-quality sensation.\nSecondly, ink dots uniform in diameter and in O.D. are obtainable by ink-jet recording on the recording medium of the present invention wherein the substrate has a Bekk smoothness of at least 50 sec. as measured in accordance with JIS P8119. Accordingly, it is possible to record full-color images high in contrast, superior in distinctness, and having a high quality.\nThirdly, on the recording medium of the invention, superior quality images with high resolution can be recorded since the substrate surface in contact with the ink-receiving layer has a prescribed roughness. In addition, images giving perspective feeling and high-quality sensation can be recorded on this recording medium since the recording surface thereof has a high gloss.\nFourthly, the recording medium of the invention has structural advantages in that the ink-receiving layer can be formed to adhere intimately to the substrate without developing any appreciable void and hence the void-attributable scaling or flaking of the ink-receiving layer scarcely from the substrate scarcely takes place.\nThe recording medium of the invention, although described hereinbefore referring to the application to ink-jet recording, is not particularly limited to this but is free to use for any recording method employing inks, for example, thermography.\n1. A recording medium comprising a substrate and an ink-receiving layer formed on the substrate, said substrate having a Bekk smoothness of at least 50 seconds as measured in accordance with JIS P8199 and having an opacity equal to or greater than the opacity of said ink-receiving layer; and the surface of said ink-receiving layer having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30 percent as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741.\n2. A recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said ink-receiving layer is light-transmissive.\n3. A recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said ink-receiving layer contains a resin.\n4. A recording medium according to claim 1, wherein said ink-receiving layer further contains a filler in an amount such that the ratio of said resin to said filler is from 0 to 1.5.\n5. An ink jet recording method comprising depositing ink droplets onto a recording medium, said recording medium comprising a substrate and an ink-receiving layer formed on the substrate, said substrate having a Bekk smoothness of at least 50 seconds as measured in-accordance with JIS P8119 and having an opacity equal to or greater than the opacity of said ink-receiving layer; and the surface of said ink-receiving having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30 percent as measure in accordance with JIS Z8741.\n6. A color-image-forming method comprising depositing droplets of yellow, magenta, cyan or black colored ink on a recording medium to form a color image, said recording medium comprising a substrate and an ink-receiving layer formed on the substrate, said substrate having a Bekk smoothness of at least 50 seconds as measured in accordance with JIS P8119 and having an opacity equal to or greater than the opacity of said ink-receiving layer; and the surface of said ink-receiving layer having a 60\u00b0 specular gloss of at least 30 percent as measured in accordance with JIS Z8741.\nUS06/789,836 1984-10-23 1985-10-21 Recording medium and recording method utilizing the same Expired - Lifetime US4664952A (en)\nJP22371684A JPS61100491A (en) 1984-10-23 1984-10-23 Recording material\nJP27126984A JPS61148090A (en) 1984-12-21 1984-12-21 Ink jet recording material\nUS06/789,836 Expired - Lifetime US4664952A (en) 1984-10-23 1985-10-21 Recording medium and recording method utilizing the same\nUS4733247A (en) * 1985-06-18 1988-03-22 Canon Kabushiki Kaisha Ink jet recording method in which the projected ink droplets have a Weber number of no more than 500\nUS4796624A (en) * 1986-11-19 1989-01-10 Concept, Inc.

        "raw_content": "Alumni News Perspective: My American Dream\nBy Dan-el Padilla Peralta \u201906\nWhy this Princetonian takes immigration reform personally (from the PAW archives)\nDan-el Padilla Peralta \u201906 on the cover of PAW\u2019s June 7, 2006, issue.\nDan-el Padilla Peralta \u201906, the Latin salutatorian at Commencement in 2006, received the Daniel M. Sachs Class of 1960 Graduating Scholarship. This essay was published the week after his graduation.\nOne of the virtues of being a student of the humanities is the opportunity to frame one\u2019s thoughts around the meditations and emotions of a tradition. Any tradition will do, but as a classicist \u2014 or at least someone who aspires to that job \u2014 I am concerned chiefly with the history and literature of ancient Greece and Rome. Through the mediation of generations of thinkers, one\u2019s own personal circumstances and labors become more bearable. Reading Aeneas\u2019 words to his men in Book I of the Aeneid \u201cO passi graviora, dabit deus his quoque finem\u201d (\u201cMen who have endured weightier things, the god will give an end to these things also\u201d) has served to remind me that, no matter what my circumstances, there will be some kind of final resolution that \u2014 if things break right \u2014 will be in my favor; and that I have endured hard times before and can make it through hard times again. To sample again from the Aeneid: Aeneas turns to his friend Achates after arriving in a foreign land and, gazing at the art of the Temple of Carthage, says, \u201cSunt lacrimae rerum et mentem mortalia tangunt\u201d (\u201cThere are tears for things and mortal affairs touch the mind\u201d). There is something almost starry-eyed about this statement; Aeneas has faith in the notion that among these people whose art he has just seen, there is humanity and a willingness to feel and be touched. We might be hesitant to accept the proposition that lacrimae rerum exist everywhere, but I have carried that hope with me even in times when such optimism appears to be unwarranted. And so it is that the study of classics has intersected with my orientation toward my life and other lives.\nThis all sounds a little far-reaching, if not grandiloquent. But for many years, classics \u2014 or specifically, the opportunities I received to study classics \u2014 offered me a window into another world, a kind of respite from the more crushing aspects of the life I was living. Especially in high school, where I began my study of Latin and Greek, the routine of academic work in classics was very soothing to me: first in the form of those slightly odd sounds and seemingly innumerable case and verb endings that I tried to master, next in the contemplation of classical literature that moved me in these strange and rather hard-to-explain ways. I think often of Helen Vendler\u2019s remarks in a Paris Review issue about the importance of poetry: Lyric and verse can be faithful and lifelong companions, personal resources, aids in times of anxiety and distress. Latin and Greek poetry and prose have left an indelible impression on me precisely for that reason.\nI am an undocumented immigrant, and I hope in the next few pages to give you a sense of how my life story has shaped my academic commitment and to testify to how that academic commitment has helped me grapple with my life story, make sense of it, and now \u2014 on my graduation from Princeton \u2014 present it to a wider audience.\nI was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, on Sept. 17, 1984, and lived there for the first four and a half years of my life. I came to New York City in June 1989 on a temporary non-immigrant visa with my parents. My mother had been instructed by her doctor to come to the United States for prenatal care. She was pregnant with my younger brother and was facing potential complications related to gestational diabetes. After my brother\u2019s birth in November of that year, my mother was released from the hospital, only to be hospitalized again a few days later with a serious infection. This made it necessary for us to prolong our stay in the United States. During and after my mother\u2019s hospital stay, my parents discussed our status problem and tried to address it; my father met with a lawyer and paid a fee to the Immigration and Naturalization Service, but he heard nothing back. My parents\u2019 very poor English and lack of financial resources prevented them from initiating the process to remedy our situation. As a result, we fell out of legal status.\nIt took my mother several months to recover from the infection, and over the next few years she would fall ill but have no recourse to medical assistance because we did not have health insurance. Meanwhile, my mother\u2019s medical problems forced my parents to give up their jobs in the Dominican Republic. My father and mother resolved to try to make a life for me and my new brother here.\nIt was very difficult for my father to find steady employment, and he insisted that my mother stay at home to raise us and take care of her health. He found temporary jobs driving cabs, working at grocery stores, ironing at a dry-cleaning shop, selling fruit at a fruit stand, and working in a factory. None of these jobs provided enough money to pay our rent, and we moved around several times over the next three years: from Astoria, Queens, to Washington Heights, Manhattan; to an apartment in the Bronx; to an attic in Corona, Queens; to an apartment in Jackson Heights, Queens; to another apartment, two blocks away. Whenever we moved, I changed public schools, although my parents would try to hold on to each apartment until June so that I could finish my school year without disruption.\nIn January 1993, frustrated by his inability to hold down a job and tired of life in the United States, my father returned to the Dominican Republic. His last job, at a factory, had left him hobbled with a foot injury. My mother decided to stay in New York with my brother and me. To this day, she says that her guiding reason was my performance in school and her desire to see my brother and me obtain good educations, no matter what the personal cost to her. She took comfort in seeing how quickly I learned English and how much I enjoyed school.\nMy mother was unable to find employment in the months after my father\u2019s departure and could not pay the rent. We lived off my brother\u2019s welfare benefits (for which he was eligible as a U.S. citizen) and the charity of relatives, but eventually we were evicted from our apartment. In the summer of 1993, a friend living nearby made his basement available to us for two weeks. As we slept one night, some exposed piping burst and the basement was flooded with water; my mother woke up as the water was rising and whisked us out of the basement. Most of our paperwork and documentation was destroyed, although my mother managed to salvage our passports and some important papers. For me, the most depressing aspect of the episode was the destruction of a small book of drawings of snakes that I had spent several weeks putting together. I was 8, and I did not have much in the way of perspective, nor did I understand my mother\u2019s zeal in wading through the water to recover the papers strewn about as my little book of drawings lay water-logged and mostly destroyed in a dirty corner.\nWe packed up what few things we had left and went to an emergency shelter in the South Bronx. After two days, we were taken to a shelter in Manhattan\u2019s Chinatown, where we lived for nine months. I remember the shelter being an unsafe place, with many people in various stages of recovery from drug addictions. The hallways and rooms were dusty and dirty, which upset my mother both because she always has been a stickler for cleanliness, and because my brother suffered from asthma and the air inside the building aggravated his illness. But one day a charitable soul gave me a book about ancient Athens and Rome, and I was immediately hooked.\nWithin a few months of entering the shelter, my mother came down with tuberculosis and was taken to Gouverneur Hospital in Manhattan, where she was prescribed antibiotics and released back to the shelter. One night, my mother pulled me aside after my brother had fallen asleep and gave me a talk about what I should do if she were to become seriously ill and die. She told me to take care of my brother and continue doing well in school, no matter whom we were sent to live with or what happened to us. I was 9 years old.\nMy mother is a devout Catholic, and when my brother and I were small my mother taught us every prayer she knew. I prayed intensely during the winter months of 1993\u201394, hoping that my mother would get better. I attributed her slow but successful recovery to my prayers. Once she was on her feet again, my mother began to press social workers to move us out of the shelter, and we ultimately were moved to an apartment in central Harlem. But for three months in between, we stayed at a Brooklyn shelter run by the Salvation Army. There, a young man named Jeff Cowen, who worked with an art program that reached out to children like me, took me under his wing. Cowen encouraged my mother and me to apply to elite New York City private schools, and over the next few years, he helped me submit applications and arrange admission interviews. Thanks in large part to his efforts, I was admitted to the Collegiate School on Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side for seventh grade.\nCollegiate opened many academic doors for me through its rigorous and broad education. It nurtured my nascent interest in classics, and I began to study Latin in the eighth grade and Greek in the ninth. It was very reassuring, after years spent moving around from school to school, to have a place that I knew I would come to every day, to study the things I loved. Though we moved two more times \u2014 our central Harlem apartment building was declared uninhabitable and the families were relocated \u2014 I was able to continue my studies at Collegiate.\nBy my junior year at Collegiate, I had begun thinking about colleges and had met with the college guidance counselor a few times. No one discussed my immigration status issue until I brought it up with a few school administrators in conversations about my future. They immediately offered support, and my college guidance counselor encouraged me to apply early decision to Princeton, which I had visited a few times. I knew that I would be ineligible for any federally funded financial aid program, but I hoped that Princeton would look at my application on its merits and not consider my status. I was aware of Princeton\u2019s generous financial aid program. On a cold December day in 2001, my mother called to say that a large envelope with an offer of admission was waiting for me at home.\nThe rest, as they say, is history. I am majoring in classics with a certificate in the Woodrow Wilson School, and have had the opportunity to follow some eclectic academic interests across the humanities and sciences. I have received many honors, including the Daniel M. Sachs Class of 1960 Graduating Scholarship, which I hope to use to study classics at Oxford University next fall. This may not be possible. Because of my undocumented status, I cannot re-enter the United States for 10 years if I depart for Oxford. At the same time, I have no prospects for employment or graduate work in the United States: I cannot work legally, and no Ph.D. program that requires teaching can support my studies. With Princeton\u2019s help, I was set up with an immigration attorney, Stephen Yale-Loehr, who helped me file an application with Citizenship and Immigration Services (successor to the I.N.S.) in April, arguing that the extraordinary circumstances of my childhood impeded my mother and me from normalizing my status. Since The Wall Street Journal told my story in April, Princeton alumni have supported me in many ways, from calling members of Congress on my behalf to helping me pay my legal fees. Former Sachs scholars, in particular, have been extremely gracious.\nMy mother and my brother, meanwhile, are carrying on. My mother volunteers with a Catholic group that draws its members from churches in northern Manhattan. My brother is now a junior at the Riverdale Country School in New York City, and is readying himself to apply to colleges in the fall.\nThe national immigration debate is not merely something I watch on television; it is personal. I had been wary of disclosing the details of my status problem to my friends, in part because I have seen that the words \u201cillegal immigrant\u201d tend to arouse a visceral reaction in people. I have had several conversations over the last four years with students who are vehemently opposed to illegal immigrants \u2014 who see them, at best, as an onerous weight on American citizens or perverse riffraff who deserve their place on the margins of society and should be deported as soon as possible. A recent debate on the black men\u2019s student blog \u2014 an online discussion board for black men on campus \u2014 has cast the hostility to undocumented aliens into sharp relief. In response to the posts of various students examining the pros and cons of several immigration bills being considered by Congress, a former roommate of mine wrote that illegal immigrants constitute a drain on American resources and a threat to the jobs of native American workers; that they are intentional law-breakers who should not receive considerate treatment from the government; and that existing laws concerning illegal immigrants should be rigidly and more consistently enforced, even if this results in behavior that could be characterized as inhumane.\nI was taken aback by his words, but they provided me with the impetus to speak out and emphasize the inhumanity of such a perspective as well as the misinformation it is based upon. That is not to say that the thoughts expressed by this classmate represent the main currency of the debate on campus; undergraduate and graduate students from various campus organizations have joined with faculty to champion reform of the immigration system and its laws. I think there are many powerful and cogent arguments that should make people from all walks of life, from average Americans to high-level politicians, revisit their preconceptions of who illegal immigrants are and what they are capable of accomplishing if given the right opportunities.\nBut I also feel that the debate about illegal immigrants will be resolved not in people\u2019s minds but in their hearts. Part of my motivation in presenting my life story to you, the readers of the Alumni Weekly, is that you will understand my personal experience of illegal immigration. I have tried to work as hard as I can and accomplish what I can, given my circumstances. I hope that my story will make you conscious of what it is to be an undocumented alien. I write in the faith that my words can move you and that there are in fact tears for things, however na\u00efve that faith may be.\n\u201cForsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit\u201d (\u201cPerhaps it will be pleasing one day to remember even these things\u201d), Aeneas tells his men in Book I. And perhaps, one day, in a future that is more secure, I will look back on the past, recall all the support I received, and smile out of pleasure and gratitude.\nTalking the Talk: 7 Notable TED Talks by Princeton Alumni",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Autumn Xpro\nLunch at a favorite restaurant \u2192\nThe Facebook Movie\nimage from imdb.com\nWe saw the Facebook movie (The Social Network) a while back and found it to be surprisingly good. Jesse Eisenberg does a fantastic job as Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook\u2019s founder) and Justin Timberlake is decent as the semi-sleazy Napster developer.\nWhat really surprised me was that Zuckerberg started Facebook as revenge against the girlfriend who dropped him. He\u2019s seen as vindictive in the movie, but Eisenberg makes the character somehow sympathetic. I liked Eisenberg in Juno, but this character is much more complex.\nZuckerberg is exasperating, fiendishly smart and funny. The ultimate irony is that he has no social life whatsoever. His girlfriend dumps him at the beginning of the movie and he has only one friend. I don\u2019t watch Oprah, so missed the Zuckerberg interview, but heard he now lives alone in a rented house in California.\nZuckerberg is one of the youngest, if not the youngest billionaire alive. But he never seems interested in money in the film. In fact, his best friend is more interested in making cash off the enterprise. I couldn\u2019t help thinking about Citizen Kane while I watched the movie. All that money and still miserable.\nI also thought about a story I read in a newspaper years ago. The writer had suffered from depression for years until she tried Prozac. The antidepressant changed her life dramatically. For the better. She decided to search for one of the inventors of Prozac so she could personally thank him for saving her life. She found one of the team, but was dismayed to learn that he was indifferent to the personal aspects of the drug. For him, it had been a really challenging puzzle and one he wanted to win. The writer left feeling deflated, and almost sorry she\u2019d come to see him.\nI wonder how Zuckerberg feels when people thank him for designing this social network that connects them to their friends and relatives so easily. I imagine he looks as uncomfortable as the Prozac inventor. Unable to fully enjoy what he created.\nThis entry was posted in movies, writing and tagged Facebook, Prozac, The Social Network. Bookmark the permalink.\n4 Responses to The Facebook Movie\nInteresting review. I didn\u2019t know that much about either the one or the other aspect of Facebook as I am not a user. Would be interested to see the movie now. Scientists often see their drugs like a difficult problem solved I guess. I read Prozac Nation a few years back. I am a bit wary when it comes to Prozac. But in the end maybe meeting an inventor is not much different from meeting a writer, or movie star. We have our pictures and when they don\u2019t match we are bound to be disappointed. Imagine we saw all the people behind the blogs\u2026\nSo true! I once had a job where I had to contact different people by phone on a daily basis. We became friendly, and I started to visualize them according to their voices (it\u2019s something I do). When I met a couple of the people, I was stunned to see that they looked nothing like my mental images. Not even close!\nAfter I hit \u201cpublish,\u201d I remembered hearing that one of my favorite authors was a pretty terrible person. I wondered if that should change my perception of his books, but it didn\u2019t. Some of the most interesting literature seems to have been written by people who were actually mad.\nI still haven\u2019t seen this movie but I really want to, I am fascinated how this story played out and of course who wouldn\u2019t want to become a billionaire \ud83d\ude42 Thanks for the review, I can\u2019t wait to see it.\nThanks\u2026hope you enjoy the movie!",

        "raw_content": "Your Pharmacy Career in Changing Times\nUncategorized May 4, 2018 0\nGeorge Bernard Shaw once said that \u201cProgress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.\u201d The way healthcare and medicine are being delivered is changing rapidly, and pharmacist today need to be thinking about these changes and their impact on our profession and careers.\nAn example of such change was seen recently in Massachusetts as 800,000 MassHealth (the state Medicaid program) members were automatically enrolled in new plans to align with the networks chosen by their primary care doctor. Matt Klitus, the CFO and chief strategy officer for MassHealth said \u201cIt\u2019s an enormous change\u2026to get us to the point where there\u2019s accountability for the total cost of care.\u201d Pharmacists across the state have had to scramble to help patients find their new coverage information.\nBut this change is just one small example of many shifts that are occurring, most of which are all concerned about cutting costs and increasing market share.\nAnother example of the change going on is the recent news of Walmart\u2019s potential deal with major insurer Humana, a deal which has many hospital nervous. According to a Wall Street Journal article the idea of such a merger is causing \u201cdeepening anxiety in the hospital sector.\u201d Randy Oostra, the president and CEO of a non-profit hospital system, said this combination of Walmart and Humana \u201cshould be a concern to everyone in healthcare.\u201d\nHospital pharmacists may feel the pressure created by these market changes. Eroding margins are leading to layoffs in some areas of the country already. It won\u2019t be long before health systems may not be able to afford the level of pharmacist staffing they have kept up until now.\nAnd, of course, everyone is talking about what Amazon is doing in the pharmacy business space. Could pharmacists in the near future be employed by Amazon to dispense and ship prescriptions directly to patient homes, like other mail-order pharmacies do already? Could they even leverage their size and technology to accomplish a same-day delivery service for certain medications? These questions remain unanswered, but the fact is that (as Bob Dylan would say), the times they are a-changin\u2019.\nI was interested to read recently about both Walgreens and CVS partnering with Blue Cross and ride-service Lyft to offer transportation to their stores to get prescriptions, as well as rides to medical appointments. The program is just in \u201cpilot\u201d mode at the moment, and it is hard to say if it will fly. It is hard to see how giving patients a ride is more cost effective than a pharmacy-based deliver service, but this just shows how organizations are endlessly trying new things.\nFor pharmacists there has never been a better time to expand your skills, keep an eye on these market changes, and prepare for the types of new opportunities that might occur. Our focus needs to go beyond simply providing excellent clinical care, although nothing can substitute for the importance of this. But we need to be thinking about where we will fit in as health systems change, consolidate, try to control drug spend and provide more affordable models of care. This is the future of healthcare. This is the future of pharmacy.\nIf we are committed to progress, then, as Bernard Shaw said, we must be committed to change. One of the hardest things to change is our own way of thinking about our profession and our careers. But we need to embrace the change, adapt our skills, and be prepared to contribute to the versions of our healthcare delivery system that are coming. Don\u2019t just wait for change to happen. As Mahatma Gandhi put it well \u201cbe the change that you wish to see in the world.\u201d",

Helmsley Charitable Trust (Helmsley) together announce the awarding of funding to the University of Florida for a one-year investigation by Dr. Timothy Garrett of the consistency and potency of insulin that is purchased at retail pharmacies across the United States.\nThis effort was prompted by a small study published in the December 2017 edition of the Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, by Carter and Heinemann1. The study, which was not initiated or supported by JDRF, the ADA or Helmsley, found a wide variation in the level of activity in insulin available at U.S. pharmacies.\nCarter and Heinemann examined 18 10-mL vials of NPH and regular insulin produced by two major manufacturers and randomly purchased in U.S. pharmacies. It found an average dosage of 40.2 U/mL with levels ranging from 13.9 to 94.2 U/mL. None of the vials met the 95-U/mL standard at the time of testing. The U.S. Pharmacopeia and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration require insulin vials and cartridges to contain a minimum of 95 percent intact insulin (95 U/mL)....\nRead more @Long View News Journal",

        "raw_content": "S. Ben Melhuish \u2022 Thursday, October 8, 2009 \u2022 Squidliness\n(Updated Oct. 8 with iPhone notes and minor text revisions.)\nSo I\u2019ve been playing some interactive fiction lately. Text adventures. Remember that stuff? Zork , Planetfall , even The Hitchhiker\u2019s Guide to the Galaxy . Good times.\nTurns out things have changed since Infocom was the alpha and omega of interactive fiction. There\u2019s something of a renaissance in interactive fiction that\u2019s been going on quietly for more than a decade now, with many works of varying length (and, of course, quality) released for free. If you enjoyed playing it back in the Day, or if you thought you would but never ended up getting into it, you might want to try one of these.\n(If you already know and love Anchorhead , you might want to skip ahead to read about things that are not Anchorhead .)\nMike Gentry\u2019s opus, from 1998, has a great reputation, and I think it\u2019s well-deserved. It\u2019s a mystery/horror story, very much Lovecraftian1. I literally shuddered in revulsion twice while playing it. Its setting, pace, and use of characters all helped immerse me in the story.\nThe game is not perfect. It suffers from the same affliction that older Infocom games did, where nearly every object that\u2019s not nailed down is needed at some other point in the story. (At least the game shows a bit of self-awareness here: Of the protagonist\u2019s trenchcoat, it says \u201cit has several deep pockets in which you can fit just about anything.\u201d And that is quite true.) Though most puzzles could be solved by attempting the actions you yourself might try in the protagonist\u2019s shoes, there were some that were obscure. And there was one bit near the end where I needed an object I\u2019d left behind, and which was now inaccessible to me, and none of the very similar objects I was carrying would do.\nThat looks like a long list, but it turns out they are mostly quibbles. Most importantly, I think, the game was very effective at ramping up the tension, starting with a vague sense of unease and ending with a race against the clock to prevent Bad Things from Happening. Another very important aspect is the writing, spare and evocative:\nThe road carries you across a desolate heath of gray, windswept grass. To the south, the black, jagged outline of Anchorhead\u2019s steep roofs and sharp, leaning gables cuts across the horizon.\nThe game can be downloaded for free (get anchor.z8); I spent perhaps a dozen hours playing it. That page also has a walkthrough, which I resorted to several times over the course of the game. (I don\u2019t feel the slightest bit of guilt for having done so.) As suggested earlier, don\u2019t hesitate to pick up every item in the game (placing them in your trenchcoat pockets). Also, any keys you find should go on your keyring; when you try to unlock something, the game automatically tries everything on the keyring.\nThings that are not Anchorhead\nThis spy thriller, by Andrew Plotkin, also from 1998, drops the protagonist in media res. The protagonist also turns out (I hope this isn\u2019t too much of a spoiler) to be an unreliable narrator, a bit of a trick in interactive fiction. I won\u2019t say much more, other than that if you try it, stick with it through the first couple of interrogation scenes.\nDownload the game from Plotkin\u2019s web site. I spent a few hours, and again I used a walkthrough at several points.\nThis is a shorter work by Stephen Granade, from 1999. It is less game and more story, focusing on interactions between the three characters (who take turns as the protagonist character). It was subtle and touching, and shows how the medium can be used for something other than puzzle games.\nGet the game file from Granade\u2019s Common Ground page. I took only an hour or so to finish it, and required no help (there were no puzzles).\nThis one, also by Granade (from 2007), is cute: The protagonist is a baby, whose goal is to get her2 favorite toy and (more importantly) keep her arch-nemesis Zoe from getting it.\nYou eye your favorite toy and the mom sees you doing it and scoops it up. \u201cNo, no, we\u2019re going to try pulling up!\u201d She is all the time trying to build your character or something. She waves the toy at you. \u201cLook! Look where I\u2019m putting it!\u201d She drops the toy on the footstool where you can\u2019t see it unless you\u2019re all pulled up, that is just no fair.\nThe writing is fun, and the characterizations seem well-done, but I have to say that I didn\u2019t complete this one: it is more puzzle-centric than I like. That said, if you are a parent and like puzzles, you\u2019ll probably enjoy it; get it from Granade\u2019s site.\nApparently 1998 was a banner year for interactive fiction, because here\u2019s another, this one by Adam Cadre. It is even less of a game than Common Ground ; it provides the player a veneer of control, but only a thin one. That said, I found it far more moving than Common Ground , and highly recommend it.\nDownload it from Cadre\u2019s site. This one, too, is a quick play, taking no more than an hour or two.\nWhat I\u2019m going to play next\nI gather that Blue Lacuna , by Aaron Reed from early 2009, is a major step forward in the state of the art; it is said to revisit assumptions about the text parser interface, have in-depth interactions with a computer character, provide hints if it notices you\u2019re having trouble, and even adjust the style of play away from puzzles if the player has trouble with the first one.\nGalatea , by Emily Short from 2000, is entirely a character interaction piece, which sounds interesting.\nMake It Good , by Jon Ingold and also from 2009, is a noir mystery, and apparently is another game with an unreliable narrator. I\u2019ve gotten the sense that this is difficult, which makes me hesitate a bit.\nAdministrivia: interpreters\nThe downloads I\u2019ve linked have all been \u201cstory files\u201d, which are not in themselves sufficient to play the games. For that, you\u2019ll need an interpreter. Under OS X, I\u2019ve used the Zoom interpreter, to satisfactory result. I haven\u2019t tried interpreters on any other platform. If I ran Windows, I\u2019d probably look at Gargoyle first. Running some kind of Unixy thing? Your guess is as good as mine; search for unix \"interactive fiction\" interpreter and try your luck.\nUpdate, Oct. 8: Thanks to Jon (and, in hindsight, Jeff) for reminding me that there is an interactive fiction app for iPhone OS, Frotz (App Store). Though Apple\u2019s rules forbid interpreters running downloaded code, the app comes bundled with several games, including Anchorhead , Child\u2019s Play , Photopia , and Spider and Web . The interface seems about as good as one can hope, but I can\u2019t recommend playing Anchorhead on the bus (for example); it should be done at night, in a dark house, when everybody else is asleep.\nLook, some footnotes\n1 Lots of stuff claims to be Lovecraftian, but only catches one or two of its hallmarks, or (worse yet) just the prose style. Not that I consider Wikipedia to be the canonical source of Lovecraft scholarship, but for a quick exercise, let\u2019s see how many of the themes listed there make an appearance in this game: forbidden knowledge, non-human influences on humanity, inherited guilt, civilization under threat, race/ethnicity/class, risks of a scientific era, and religion, all yes. (The only one it may miss is fate, and I need to think about that one a bit more.)\n2 I don\u2019t know why I assume the character is a girl; I don\u2019t think the game ever states that.",

        "raw_content": "November 30, 2018 December 6, 2018 pizzapartyofoneLeave a Comment on untitled/\nuntitled/\nI fell in love with Sienna Browne the evening we arrived in Rome to film Anyone\u2019s Darling. I remember it as if it were yesterday. That exact moment. We were all supposed to meet in the lobby of the crappy little hotel the studio had booked us at 7PM and the car would take us to Stefano\u2019s villa for dinner. We were meant to be \u201cgetting to know\u201d one another. Bullshit. Like we all didn\u2019t know everything there was to already know in this industry.\nAlana and Jared had gone on by themselves. Said there was a wine bar in Trastevere they wanted to stop by to say hello to some old friends before we needed to be there.\nChad Dylan and I were sitting in these two red velvet armchairs in the lobby, and it was already 7:15PM. I was nervous as hell. This was my first film working with Stefano. I needed to make a good impression. This could really change things for me. Chad was smoking a Cuban. I had my whiskey \u2013 that was all I drank back then. I thought it made me seem \u2014 I don\u2019t know exactly what I thought. But I liked it. I liked whatever people thought when they saw me with a glass of whiskey neat.\nSo there we are, we\u2019re waiting for the infamous Sienna Browne to finally grace us with her presence, and I remember I feel like I\u2019m sweating bullets. I\u2019m thinking, well fuck, so much for this silk shirt. And I will admit, it wasn\u2019t just because of Roberto. I was anxious to meet her. This was a woman who\u2019s entire existence had been printed in the papers from the time she was 17 and ran off to marry Bobby Crayton in Vegas. A woman who\u2019s name had been in my ears for the duration of my career, a woman who\u2019s shadow I seemed to be chasing for the past five years. When I think about it now, I don\u2019t know how our paths hadn\u2019t crossed before then, but here we were, in the Eternal City, set to star opposite each other in a film that we had each been promised would cement our careers.\n\u201cWell, do we send someone up there after her?\u201d I finally say to Dylan.\n\u201cNot yet. Fuckin\u2019 Sienna. The Pope himself could be down here and she\u2019d wouldn\u2019t give a damn,\u201d He huffed, blowing the smoke of his cigar away from me and in the direction of two British blondes who has spotted us from across the lobby, and were now giggling uncontrollably.\n\u201cWell fine, but if I finish my whiskey and she\u2019s still not down here I\u2019m \u2014 \u201c but I didn\u2019t get to finish my thought because I was too distracted by the large commotion that had arisen around the main staircase in the parlor.\nAmid a small crowd, the two Blondes included, and a great deal of chatter, I could just make her out.\nShe was wearing a tea length black cotton dress that rested off her shoulders. The fabric was light and lose, maybe linen, but it somehow managed to cling to every curve of her body. It was slit up her left thigh, and I remember thinking, Holy shit, that\u2019s the most perfect leg I\u2019ve ever seen. There was no way in hell she was wearing a bra. I could have bet my life on it. Her lips were painted that signature cherry red and her iconic honey blonde hair was swept away from her face and pulled back with a simple black ribbon at the nape of her neck. She continued down the stairs and our eyes met, and I swear for a second, my heart stopped all together.\nSo many people, I think, can pinpoint that exact moment when their heart became someone else\u2019s. Watching Sienna walk down those stairs, well, I think I was too scared and confused to realize that that was mine.\nSo she walks towards us, her silk-wrap sandals click-clacking on the marble floor. And that bitch has the balls to grab my whiskey out of my hand and knock back the rest of the glass.\n\u201cSorry,\u201d she says in that husky voice of hers, \u201cI couldn\u2019t stop thinking about how God-damn good that drink looked as I was walking down through that crowd of assholes and I just could not help myself.\u201d\nDylan burst out laughing. \u201cClassic Sienna,\u201d he murmurs then turns around and walks towards the front door.\nI\u2019m still standing there in shock, and remember that I\u2019m supposed to be making a good impression, despite the fact that there\u2019s a drumline exploding in my chest. God don\u2019t let her hear my heart beating, I kept thinking. I thought then, and still think, that Sienna is the kind of person that can hear someone\u2019s heart beating from a mile away. She knows the find of effect she has on people, but she doesn\u2019t give a shit. I don\u2019t even think it registers.\nSo I finally stick my hand out, all polite, and I say, \u201cSally Scott. Pleased to meet you. You owe me a Johnnie Walker.\u201d\nAnd that became our thing.\nI keep playing with the idea of writing a book. What would it be about? How long would it need to be? How long would it take me? This sounds scary\u2026.. so until then, I will write little beginnings and keep exploring this idea that terrifies and excites me at the same time.\n-Ails\nPrevious I\u2019m just a teenage dirtbag baby\nNext Introducing You to a Part of Yourself",

        "raw_content": "Using \u201cBehavioral Profiling\u201d to Identify \u201cSuccessful\u201d Project Managers\nDr. Paul D. Giammalvo, CDT, CCE, MScPM, MRICS\nGiven the observation that some people are just naturally \u201cgood\u201d at managing projects and consistently are able to deliver \u201csuccessful\u201d projects, and given there were no obvious educational, certifications, age, sex or any other demographics that seemed to differentiate them, the research question that resulted in this paper is whether there are any behavioral attributes which can serve to predict with any accuracy who is likely to be a \u201cnatural\u201d project manager. This paper explores a pilot research project done to see if the behavioral profiles of successful project managers could be created (it was) and to see if that behavioral profile was a reliable predictor of who would likely to be a good or successful project manager. The paper concludes that while there is anecdotal evidence to support such a claim, that further research is necessary to help validate by adjusting the behavioral profile which was created using the Harrison Assessment Instrument.\nHave you ever noticed that some people are just \u201cnaturally\u201d good project managers? That some people, when given a project, seem to be able to quickly define what needs to be done, find the right people, then organize, delegate, lead and motivate the team to complete the project? And in doing so, they seem to make it look easy?\nIn 40+ years as a practitioner, I saw enough examples of these \u201cnatural\u201d project managers that I wanted to explore whether or not they had anything in common.\nSimple observation and reflection made it clear that gender, age, education, ethnicity, religion, formal training or job title was not the differentiator. So what was? Given such broad diversity, it became obvious that it had to do more with their personalities- that there must be some behavioral traits that differentiated those who were naturals from those who had to work at it.\nInitially, I turned to the work of Max Wideman, who had done some research using Myers Briggs, but that proved to be too generic, with the initial research indicating that there were \u201cnaturally successful\u201d project managers coming from each of the 16 MB types. This meant we needed a finer measure- an instrument which went deeper than Myers Briggs.\nEditor\u2019s note: Second Editions are previously published papers that have continued relevance in today\u2019s project management world, or which were originally published in conference proceedings or in a language other than English.

        "raw_content": "The true meaning of Dorothy Red shoes!!\tOctober 22, 2012\nTags: motherhood, Parenting, relationships, spirituality\nThis writer has asked to be kept anonymous, but felt very strongly to share her journey with the hopes that other women will find the strength and courage to find their true meaning in life.\nToday is my 30th wedding anniversary and my 6 month anniversary of disappearing from my marriage. On November 6, 2011, I left my husband undercover, undetected and scared for my life. I am thousands of miles away now-safe and free for the first time in my life!!\nThroughout my childhood, I felt lonely and unloved. My father was a doctor, a workaholic who was only interested in himself and his status in the community. My sister, my mother and I were expected to worship him. Everyone told us constantly what a wonderful man he was, but the truth was just the opposite. My father did not love and nurture me or my sister. He did not keep us safe from our mother who raged and fought with us all day long. My mother was miserable being left at home with us and hated my father for being gone all the time. My sister and I were two little girls needing love and care. To my mother, we were a burden and a problem. I often wondered why my parents chose to adopt each of us at birth if they weren\u2019t interested in having children around.\nI now understand and accept that I was not responsible for being given up at birth or being unloved by my parents. However, both of these events helped me form the unconscious underlying belief that I was unlovable, unworthy and would be abandoned in all my intimate relationships.\nThe day I got married was shiny and beautiful. I felt absolutely assured of happily ever after. All I had ever wanted was my own family. I was determined that we would be loving and close, connected in every way. My husband would put fatherhood before anything else. He would love and nurture our children and keep all of us happy and safe. My family would be perfect\nI picked the perfect man to create that reality for me. I chose a husband like both of my parents \u2014 a raging, self-absorbed man who blamed me and my children for anything and everything. My husband used and manipulated all of us for his own interests. He played on our love and trust to build us into a family that revolved around him. Due to my childhood, I felt very comfortable with that dynamic. Everything felt right and normal until it wasn\u2019t. I had made my bed and I would lie in it for 30 hard, lonely years.\nRaising my children, nurturing my marriage, connecting my family took center stage. What an apt phrase, \u201ccenter stage\u201d, because that was what my family was \u2014 a facade, a stage set, a replica of a real family with none of the connection, the intimacy, the love. I had exactly the family I grew up with, but I could not consciously see it or maybe I just didn\u2019t want to see it. But I knew something wasn\u2019t right, and just like I felt responsible for my family\u2019s dysfunction as a child, I felt responsible for all my new family\u2019s problems. The same thing was happening again in my own new family and I was the common denominator, so it must be my fault!!\nTurns out that what else I could do was alternately binge and starve and numb out for hours with exercise, sleep and reading books about mass murderers. I hated myself outside and inside. The only way I could hide this secret and the ones about the state of my family was to isolate myself from the communities we lived in. Too busy to socialize, too busy to make friends, too busy to connect with anyone lest they find out about how horrible I was and what a miserable life I had. Isolating myself was my protection as a child, too.\nAs the years of our marriage doubled, my husband became more and more discontent with me. He saw me as the enemy, out to get him like everyone else, worthless, a bother, and wrong in every way. I bowed and scraped and made super human attempts at mending our frequent fights. It never dawned on me that I couldn\u2019t fix this, that I couldn\u2019t find a way to pretzel myself back into the woman he fell in love with. What had I done wrong? How unworthy and unlovable could I be that my parents had rejected me and now my husband found me disgusting too? I was a failure as a daughter, a wife, a woman, as a human being. I was going to be abandoned again and there was no way to stop it. The truth was, that no one was coming to save me. My marriage dynamic was toxic and unchangeable. My husband was pathological. I had to save myself, but I didn\u2019t know if I could.\nAnother, more horrifying truth was that my marriage was violent. My husband had physically and verbally abused me many many times over the years. Talking to him about leaving could get me killed. I knew I had to disappear and I knew I couldn\u2019t do it alone. For the first time in my life, I told my secrets to my children. My children validated me, acknowledging that things had been horrible in our family forever. They offered me a place to run to out of state and encouraged me to tell the few friends I had managed to connect with over the last couple of years. My friends were shocked and saddened, but offered their total love and support. I was so ashamed for revealing the nature of my marriage and the truth of my life. I was beyond grateful that my children and my friends would help me do this huge thing. No one in my life had ever helped me before. Maybe it was because I had never asked.\nI plotted my leaving like a special ops mission. All the arrangements, phone calls and packing took place while my husband was at the golf course two hours a day. If it rained, I lost my chance. I had been living a double life for so long that by now it was second nature. Outside the house, I was open, happy and free. Inside the house I was wary, quiet and passive. I made sure not to argue, disagree with or anger my husband. I had subjugated myself for so long to keep the peace with him, that I knew exactly how to play it. Everything appeared as normal. He could not, must not get wind of my plans.\nD-Day \u2013Disappearing Day \u2014 was so unremarkable it was otherworldly. I had everything synchronized and rehearsed. The minute my husband pulled out of the garage to go to the golf course, I packed the last of my things, jumped in the car and left my home. My friends were there to take my precious plants, hide my car and drive me to the airport. Once I was safely inside the terminal I took off my wedding rings and felt instantly invisible. And, at the same time, horribly, hugely visible as a woman alone\u2013 not a partner, not a wife, an unwanted female.\nToday, six months gone from my marriage, is my 30th wedding anniversary. I live in a sunny, little apartment with a bed, a couch and a kitchen table. I am 7 minutes walk from my girls and we spend beautiful, loving, quality time together every day. They have truly taught me how to love. I am working with a therapist and studying to be an integrative coach. I am healing.\nThere are many gifts I got from my my parents and my husband. From my parents I got my mental and emotional toughness, my ideas about the kind of parent I wanted to be and the huge need to be seen and heard. Giving the gift of acknowledgement and appreciation to everyone in my life is my passion and purpose today. Thanks mom and dad.\nFrom my husband, I got my two amazing, brilliant, beautiful daughters, the strength to speak my truth and the determination to stand in my power. These things I would never had accomplished without him. He honed me. Thank you. My life\u2019s recipe made me into the spirited, vibrant, loving woman that I am today and I am so thankful for the ingredients, even if, by most people\u2019s standards, they were horrendous. I guess that is what I needed to get here and become the woman I was meant to be.\nAt the time that I left my husband, I felt that I was losing everything. The truth is that I was gaining everything \u2013my freedom, my peace, my joy, my life, myself. Finally.\nI had chosen the passive, submissive path all my life in all my relationships, believing that no conflict meant I would never be alone again. I made my unconscious childhood underlying commitment of being unlovable and abandoned into a reality. Had I not woken up, my life would have played out as planned. I spent my whole 57 years trying to fix, save and love everyone but myself, believing that this would keep me safe, but I had done myself the ultimate injustice. Instead of being rejected and abandoned by everyone else, I had been the rejector and the abandoner- of me. By trying to create the \u201cperfect,\u201d image, I denied myself the opportunity to gain insight and to grow. But now I Finally know, I am the only person I can fix, save and love.\nI was afraid for my whole life. I was afraid that I would be abandoned if I let people see the real ME and my needs, wants and feelings. I was afraid that I could not depend on myself. Truly what I know is that I was afraid to step into my own power, to speak my truth, to put myself out there. I was afraid to be my authentic amazing self because I believed I was not worthy. I believed sacrificing myself, would make everyone love and need me. That never worked. No matter how hard I tried to give everyone every last piece of me, they just wanted more and cared less.\nToday I ask for what I need, show my emotions, confide in the people in my life and speak my truth, even when it is difficult. I know that not only is it possible to grow and change no matter how old or how far down the road you are, but it is more joyful and more wonderful than I ever thought it could be\nI call this piece Dorothy\u2019s Red Shoes because throughout the Wizard of OZ, Dorothy looked for everyone and everything to save her and take her home where she longed to be. The red shoes, that ultimately carried her back, were on her feet the whole time. She always had the power to save herself. .She always had everything she needed inside. We all have everything we need inside.and we have on those red shoes.so we can save ourselves We all look for answers outside, but the truth is that we HAVE all we need. We ARE all we need.",

        "raw_content": "Home\u203aBanks\u203aLabour plans to move Bank of England out of London\nLabour has planned to move some of Bank of England\u2019s operations to Birmingham\nIn an effort to enable investment in other parts of the UK, part of the Bank of England may be moved out of London. There are plans to move the bank to Birmingham, ending its historical association with London, if plans by Labour materialise. The bank has been based in the city since 1734.\nThe recommendation is part of an interim report into the UK\u2019s financial system. The report was led by the economist Graham Turner of GFC Economics and launched by the shadow chancellor, John McDonnell. The report says that UK output from hi-tech industries has fallen on average over the past decade. It found that investment in manufacturing, ICT and other critical sectors is lagging \u00a328bn behind investment in real estate companies. It recommended shifting some of the bank\u2019s operations to Birmingham and establish offices in Glasgow, Cardiff and Belfast, with smaller regional offices in Newcastle and Plymouth. Labour said that the bank will be set up close to the National Investment Bank and Strategic Investment Board secretariat and research department, which it plans to set up when it enters government.\nThis step is intended to create a new \u201ceconomic policy hub\u201d in Birmingham. Labour will review whether to relocate the governor\u2019s office to the city. McDonnell said that this important report brings home the message that the financial system isn\u2019t delivering enough investment across the country, and in the high-technology industries and firms of the future where it is needed most. He added that under the Tories, there has been more and more investment into property speculation whilst high-tech firms have been starved of the money they need, and research spending has lagged far behind.\nEconomist Graham Turner said that the pace of automation and technological change is accelerating, threatening established business models and creating an economy characterised by frequent \u2018disruptive\u2019 episodes. As a central bank sitting at the heart of the UK financial system, the Bank of England needs to be playing an active, leading role, ensuring banks are helping UK companies to innovate. Flow of funds analysis shows that banks are diverting resources away from industries vital to the future of this country. He added that there is a risk that the disproportionate number of technology companies in London and the south-east will increase, exacerbating regional inequality. He said that governments have a critical role in addressing these weaknesses, but that will require determined, strategic action.",

Effective mental health and substance use disorder treatment with transgender and gender diverse clients requires psychotherapists to create a safe and affirming treatment environment, as well as to develop specialized clinical competencies and considerations. Moving toward a transgender affirmative clinical practice is an ethical imperative for all clinicians today.\nThis interactive workshop is designed to help practitioners address biases and attitudes that undermine therapeutic safety, increase provider knowledge of gender minorities, and discuss the clinical issues facing transgender and gender diverse clients. Both clinical and administrative considerations will be presented to ensure that clinical practices are ethical, affirming, and inclusive from start to finish. Participant will leave with clinical competencies to better meet the growing and evolving demands of this population.\nSean Lare, LCSW-C is a clinical social worker who is passionate about serving the transgender and gender diverse community by providing psychotherapy, leading advocacy work, and educating others on the varied experiences of this community.

        "raw_content": "Home > Interviews > No one has wholly touched the romantic genre in the Punjabi industry: Jagdeep Sidhu\nDixit Bhargav September 14, 2018\tInterviews Leave a comment\nHaving written the dialogues for Vijay Kumar Arora\u2019s \u2018Ronde Sare Vyah Picho\u2018 (2013) to writing the script for Vijay Kumar Arora\u2019s \u2018Harjeeta\u2018 (2018), there was no doubt whatsoever in Jagdeep Sidhu\u2019s rising up the ranks in the Punjabi film industry. In between those two movies, he had also penned down several other movies including the critically and commercially acclaimed \u2018Nikka Zaildar\u2019 series.\nIn which was expected to go down as another movie written by him and directed by someone else, it was Sidhu\u2019s destiny which made him the director as well. Speaking of destiny, his imminent movie named \u2018Qismat\u2019 will mark his directorial debut in the Punjabi film industry.\nIn an interview with Punjabi Mania, Sidhu unveiled his hesitation regarding directing a movie initially, speaking about how eventually he ended up directing one. \u201cHaving written this script, I really believe that it is different. In the past, no one has wholly touched the romantic genre in the Punjabi industry. Romance has been shown in the Punjabi cinema but along with add-ons like comedy and action. I approached a few directors but no one was willing to direct a movie on this subject. It was then that I decided to foray into direction, ending up directing the movie myself\u201d, Sidhu said about what forced him to take the matter in his own hands.\nOn being asked about the difference between writing and directing a movie, Sidhu claimed the former to be a much easier task. \u201cWhile writing a script, your own mind should be active. You just have to be in that zone. However, while directing a movie, you have numerous responsibilities on your shoulders\u201d, he said.\n\u201cBecause the Punjabi industry is not very professional, it still lacks basic teamwork and other facilities. Work being divided into departments is a major missing. As a result, all these things fall on the director. Even the songs of the movie are selected by the director. Apart from being involved creatively, you have to get involved technically as well. According to me, a director\u2019s job is really tough\u201d, he further said on the same topic.\nFor someone who is a part of the industry for over half-a-decade, making friends in the industry is bound to happen. On being asked about if he had received an advice from any established director before directing his first movie, he disclosed that he spoke to a couple of friends from within the industry who motivated him to go ahead with the project.\n\u201cI really like Anurag (Singh) bhaji\u2019s work in the Punjabi industry. I spoke to him and he advised me to follow my heart. He told me that my first film will be my most honest attempt at film-making and that I won\u2019t get this opportunity in the future. After the first film, things like big actors, big production houses and the commercial aspect come into the picture, which force you to deliver hit movies, taking a toll on your honesty\u201d, Sidhu said about an advice from the \u2018Jatt & Juliet\u2019 series director.\n\u201cI am on good terms with Amber (Amberdeep Singh) as well. He always used to tell me that I should start directing movies. He was always of the opinion that if I am able to write well, I will be able to direct as well\u201c, Sidhu spoke about receiving a piece of suggestion from Amberdeep Singh, who successfully walked the writer-turned-director road last year.\nSpeaking about his vision before directing Qismat, Sidhu revealed that he kept it simple as putting exclusive emphasis on the emotions and feelings [in a romantic movie] was his main motive. He also said that he tried to deviate away from including excessive comic punches in the movies.\nA facet of film-making which the Punjabi makers are generally obsessed with is incorporating unnecessary songs in a movie. Since Qismat comprises of six songs, it was vital to ask Sidhu about the purpose which these songs would be serving in his movie. \u201cYa. The film has six songs. Because there is a club and a wedding sequence in the movie, there\u2019s one club and wedding song respectively. The other four songs are the screenplay of the film. The film won\u2019t stop for those songs. It\u2019s not like you will see the lead actors singing the song on a mountain top. You will get to see the film moving in these songs\u201d, he added.\nQismat will mark Sargun Mehta\u2019s return on-screen after more than 16 months. For an actress who has won two consecutive Filmfare awards for Best Actress in the last two years, it is a substantial break. On being asked about what made him cast Mehta in the movie, Sidhu answered, \u201cCiting the character [that I\u2019d written] in mind, I either wanted to work with an established actress in Sargun or wanted to work with a fresh face. Among the current actresses, I found Sargun the fittest for this character. I narrated the script to her and she agreed immediately.\u201d\n\u201cThere are some characters which suit a particular individual just as Bani [name in the movie] suited Sargun. I believe that she was an apt choice\u201d, he further added.\nFor someone whose first directorial film is yet to release, Sidhu has a couple of more projects (big ones, at that) lined-up. One of which is \u2018Shadaa\u2018, which stars Diljit Dosanjh and Neeru Bajwa. On being asked about this rare case for a director, Sidhu was quoted, \u201cAs I said, I had never thought of direction. Genuinely speaking, it is a great opportunity that I will be working with Diljit bhaji, he\u2019s a superstar. I must confess that God has been very kind.\u201d\nAnurag Singh is one of the producers of Shadaa. Sharing an interesting anecdote of his past, Sidhu said, \u201cI used to ask people if someone could fix me a meeting with Anurag bhaji. There\u2019s a park behind my residence in Mumbai where Anurag bhaji used to jog in the morning. I used to think of narrating him a story over there but then I was always doubtful about this plan. And today, he is producing a movie for me. I had never thought of all this, it\u2019s good that it is happening.\u201d\nSidhu also admitted that all these responsibilities have put him under a lot of work-related pressure. \u201cYou definitely feel the pressure. I was just thinking that it is too much. Shadaa\u2019s shoot will commence in 10 days. At the moment, I am doing Qismat\u2019s post-production and Shadaa\u2019s pre-production at the same time. It is difficult to manage. I had thought of completing a couple of stories after the release of Qismat. But that plan has gone for a toss now\u201d, he said.\nOn being asked about an advice which he would give to a rookie writer, Sidhu answered, \u201cI receive a lot of calls and messages which say that they [caller or sender] want to narrate a story to me. But all they have is half-baked stories. It is just a thought. I believe that the best way of learning writing is by doing it.\n\u201cEven if you aren\u2019t getting an opportunity [to give a narration], at least complete your script. If you\u2019ve completed one, complete the second one as well and so on. It is like a writer\u2019s bank balance. It will never be wasted. With every script, you will grow as well and when time will come, believe me all those scripts will be made into movies.\u201d\nBefore signing off, Sidhu was asked the reason as to why people should visit the cinema halls to watch Qismat. \u201cThe first thing is that people always complain regarding film-makers repeating the same thing in our industry. So, here is a movie which is different, something which has never been done in the Punjabi industry\u201d, he said.\n\u201cSecondly, you won\u2019t find this movie any less than the contemporary Bollywood movies. Be it the making, music or the overall quality of the movie, it is very rich. Since this is a love story, I believe that the audiences will be reminded of their own love stories after watching the movie\u201d, he said in an amusing manner.\nWith the movie set to release on September 21, here is wishing the whole team of Qismat lots of luck!\nAmmy Virk Guggu Gill Harby Sangha Jagdeep Sidhu Qismat Sargun Mehta Shri Narotam Ji Production spotlight\t2018-09-14\nTags Ammy Virk Guggu Gill Harby Sangha Jagdeep Sidhu Qismat Sargun Mehta Shri Narotam Ji Production spotlight\nPrevious White Hill Music Celebrates 5 Million Subscribers\nNext Nav Bajwa, Jaswinder Bhalla starrer \u2018Kitty Party\u2019 announced",

        "raw_content": "Spain's royals find a reason to celebrate\nKing Juan Carlos of Spain is 80 today and while he's normally not a great one for birthday parties, the man who was monarch for almost forty years is about to embark on two days of festivities. Amongst the events of the coming 48 hours will be a symbolic public appearance and a private lunch. At last, Spain's royals have found a reason to celebrate.\nJuan Carlos is expected to spend his actual birthday hosting a private lunch at the Zarzeula Palace. According to El Mundo it's going to be a big spread with Queen Sofia at her husband's side and two of their three children, King Felipe VI and Infanta Elena, confirmed on the guest list alongside Queen Letizia. No one knows if their younger daughter, Infanta Cristina, will be attending. Four of the royal grandchildren - Princess Leonor, Infanta Sofia, Froilan and Victoria de Marichalar - will also be there as will Juan Carlos' sisters, Infanta Margarita and Infanta Pilar, and other relations. Presumably if Cristina comes she'll be bringing her own four children, Juan, Pablo, Miguel and Irene, but not her husband, Inaki Urdangarin.\nThey'll have to wrap up fairly early as it appears that King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia will be attending the Pascua Militar in Madrid on the morning of January 6th. This is always the first event in the Spanish royal calendar and after the ceremony outside the Palacio Real, there is a reception inside. Juan Carlos and Sofia haven't attended during Felipe's reign so this is a symbolic moment. It is being seen by some commentators as the start of a year of similar appearances to mark the 80th birthdays of Juan Carlos and Sofia, who marks her own anniversary in November.\nJuan Carlos Alfonso Victor Maria de Borbon was born on January 5th 1938 in Rome, the second child and first son of Juan, Count of Barcelona and his wife, Maria de las Mercedes de Borbon Dos Sicilias. His family was in exile following the declaration of the Second Spanish Republic in 1931. Juan Carlos returned to Madrid for his education and was named successor to the throne by the dictator, Francisco Franco. He was declared King of Spain on November 22nd 1975, two days after the death of Franco, and was instrumental in helping to reestablish democracy in the country after decades of dictatorship. He abdicated the throne of Spain in favour of his son, Felipe, on June 19th 2014.\nRoyals in Europe Spanish Royalty",

        "raw_content": "David Boaz Quotes\nDavid Boaz (born 1953) is the executive vice president of the influential libertarian U.S think tank the Cato Institute. He has played a key role in the development of the Cato Institute and the libertarian movement.\nOne difference between libertarianism and socialism is that a socialist society can't tolerate groups of people practicing freedom, but a libertarian society can comfortably allow people to choose voluntary socialism. If a group of people \u2014 even a very large group \u2014 wanted to purchase land and own it in common, they would be free to do so. The libertarian legal order would require only that no one be coerced into joining or giving up his property.\n\"The Coming Libertarian Age\" in Cato Policy Report (January/February 1997)\nMore David Boaz Quotes\nLibertarianism is not libertinism or hedonism. It is not a claim that \"people can do anything they want to, and nobody else can say anything.\" Rather, libertarianism proposes a society of liberty under law, in which individuals are free to pursue their own lives so long as they respect the equal rights of others. The rule of law means that individuals are governed by generally applicable and spontaneously developed legal rules, not by arbitrary commands; and that those rules should protect the freedom of individuals to pursue happiness in their own ways, not aim at any particular result or outcome.\n\u0097 \"Key Concepts of Libertarianism\" (1 January 1999)\nTags: Libertarianism, libertinism, hedonism, claim, people, can, anything, want, nobody\nLibertarians have always battled the age-old scourge of war. They understood that war brought death and destruction on a grand scale, disrupted family and economic life, and put more power in the hands of the ruling class \u2014 which might explain why the rulers did not always share the popular sentiment for peace. Free men and women, of course, have often had to defend their own societies against foreign threats; but throughout history, war has usually been the common enemy of peaceful, productive people on all sides of the conflict.\nTags: Libertarians, battled, ageold, scourge, war, understood, death, destruction, grand",

        "raw_content": "Rahal Finished Third in the Honda Indy 200; Fifth Top-Five and Third Podium in Past Seven Races\nWoodcliff Lake, N.J. \u2013 Aug. 1, 2017\u2026 With four races remaining in the 2017 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, this weekend\u2019s Continental Tire Road Race Showcase, at Road America, in Elkhart Lake, Wis. begins BMW Team RLL\u2019s final push for the GTLM class championship. After a difficult start to the season, the Bobby Rahal-led effort has fought back to score six podium finishes in the last four races, including two wins by Bill Auberlen and Alexander Sims in the No. 25 BMW M6 GTLM. While teammates John Edwards and Martin Tomczyk have yet to reach the top of the podium, the No. 24 BMW M6 GTLM drivers have a second-place and two third-place results in the last four races.\nBMW has moved into third place in GTLM class Manufacturer points, seven points ahead of Porsche, three behind Ford, and seven behind Chevrolet. Auberlen and Sims finished a disappointing sixth in the last round at Lime Rock Park, but remain second in Driver points \u2013 seven points from first. Edwards and Tomczyk have climbed to seventh in Driver points, thirty points from the leaders.\n\u201cWe have a pretty successful history at Elkhart Lake,\u201d said Bobby Rahal, Team Principal. \u201cWe have won three times, been second a couple of times. We\u2019ve qualified well there most times and even when we didn\u2019t qualify well, we had good finishes. Based on our performance at COTA, Watkins Glen and Mosport, we should be in good shape at Road America, but IMSA has changed the Balance of Performance after Mosport, and again after Lime Rock, so we will see how that shakes out. It\u2019s well known that the BMW M6 likes long, fast corners and that\u2019s everything that Elkhart Lake is.\u201d\nBill Auberlen, driver No. 25 BMW M6 GTLM: \u201cWe\u2019ve had a great run over the last four races, with three podiums, including two wins and that has Alexander and me second in points. With its long, sweeping corners Road America really suits the M6 and I know we can count on continuing our championship fight.\u201d\nAlexander Sims, driver No. 25 BMW M6 GTLM: \u201cHaving tested at the awesome Road America I think we can go there expecting to be competitive and fight near the front. Obviously, many things can happen but I hope it will be a good hunting ground for us in the BMW.\u201d\nJohn Edwards, driver No. 24 BMW M6 GTLM: \u201cLast year we scored our only podium of the year at Road America, and this year we\u2019re riding the momentum of three podiums in the last four races. The M6 has come alive this season and I\u2019m excited to push for a win at one of the coolest tracks we race on. We spent two days testing there so I\u2019m confident that we will be ready to perform and keep BMW in the hunt for the manufacturer\u2019s championship.\u201d\nMartin Tomczyk, driver No. 24 BMW M6 GTLM: \u201cRoad America is one of the few tracks where I have tested. So from that point of view I know the track already and we can concentrate right from the beginning on the perfect set-up. The track seems to fit the BMW M6 better than, say Lime Rock Park. After having a sensational fight there, I am looking forward to more racing with our competitors. Racing in the states is pure passion!\u201d",

        "title": "No to Bio-Political Tattooing, by Giorgio Agamben, 1/10/04",
        "raw_content": "No to Bio-Political Tattooing\nThe newspapers leave no doubt: from now on whoever wants to go to the United States with a visa will be put on file and will have to leave their fingerprints when they enter the country. Personally, I have no intention of submitting myself to such procedures and that's why I didn't wait to cancel the course I was supposed to teach at New York University in March.\nI would like to explain the reasons for this refusal here, that is, why, in spite of the sympathy that has connected me to my American colleagues and their students for many years, I consider that this decision is at once necessary and without appeal and would hope that it will be shared by other European intellectuals and teachers.\nIt's not only the immediate superficial reaction to a procedure that has long been imposed on criminals and political defendants. If it were only that, we would certainly be morally able to share, in solidarity, the humiliating conditions to which so many human beings are subjected.\nThe essential does not lie there. The problem exceeds the limits of personal sensitivity and simply concerns the juridical-political status (it would be simpler, perhaps, to say bio-political) of citizens of the so-called democratic states where we live.\nThere has been an attempt the last few years to convince us to accept as the humane and normal dimensions of our existence, practices of control that had always been properly considered inhumane and exceptional.\nThus, no one is unaware that the control exercised by the state through the usage of electronic devices, such as credit cards or cell phones, has reached previously unimaginable levels.\nAll the same, it wouldn't be possible to cross certain thresholds in the control and manipulation of bodies without entering a new bio-political era, without going one step further in what Michel Foucault called the progressive animalisation of man which is established through the most sophisticated techniques.\nElectronic filing of finger and retina prints, subcutaneous tattooing, as well as other practices of the same type, are elements that contribute towards defining this threshold. The security reasons that are invoked to justify these measures should not impress us: they have nothing to do with it. History teaches us how practices first reserved for foreigners find themselves applied later to the rest of the citizenry.\nWhat is at stake here is nothing less than the new \"normal\" bio-political relationship between citizens and the state. This relation no longer has anything to do with free and active participation in the public sphere, but concerns the enrollment and the filing away of the most private and incommunicable aspect of subjectivity: I mean the body's biological life.\nThese technological devices that register and identify naked life correspond to the media devices that control and manipulate public speech: between these two extremes of a body without words and words without a body, the space we once upon a time called politics is ever more scaled-down and tiny.\nThus, by applying these techniques and these devices invented for the dangerous classes to a citizen, or rather to a human being as such, states, which should constitute the precise space of political life, have made the person the ideal suspect, to the point that it's humanity itself that has become the dangerous class.\nSome years ago, I had written that the West's political paradigm was no longer the city state, but the concentration camp, and that we had passed from Athens to Auschwitz. It was obviously a philosophical thesis, and not historic recital, because one could not confuse phenomena that it is proper, on the contrary, to distinguish.\nI would have liked to suggest that tattooing at Auschwitz undoubtedly seemed the most normal and economic way to regulate the enrolment and registration of deported persons into concentration camps. The bio-political tattooing the United States imposes now to enter its territory could well be the precursor to what we will be asked to accept later as the normal identity registration of a good citizen in the state's gears and mechanisms. That's why we must oppose it.\nGiorgio Agamben is a philosopher and professor at the University of Venice and New York University.\nCopyright \u00a9 2004 Le Monde",

        "title": "Remote sensing estimation of chlorophyll-a concentration in Taihu Lake considering spatial and temporal variations | Springer for Research & Development",
        "raw_content": "Remote sensing estimation of chlorophyll-a concentration in Taihu Lake considering spatial and temporal variations\nChunmei Cheng\nYuchun Wei\nGuonian Lv\nThe estimation of chlorophyll-a concentrations (Chla) in lakes using remote sensing is convenient, but its use remains challenging in large eutrophic water bodies due to the great spatial and temporal variations of its optical properties. Combining the sampling location and date information with Chla data, this study divided the lake water into three types, I, II and III, and then built an optimal Chla estimation model for each type based on 11 datasets collected from 2004 to 2012 in Taihu Lake, China. The resultant model expression is Chla\u2009=\u2009exp (ax2\u2009+\u2009bx\u2009+\u2009c), where x is R701/R677, (1/R686\u20131/R695)\u2009\u00d7\u2009R710 and (R690/R550\u2013R675/R700) / (R690/R550\u2009+\u2009R675/R700). For the Chla ranging from 2 to 192 mg/m3, the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of the new model decreased up to 5.1 mg/m3 compared to that of previous band combination models, such as band ratio, three-band and four-band models when directly validated. The RMSE of the re-parametrization model (the lowest RMSE <\u200912 mg/m3) is also lower than for those models (the lowest RMSE >\u200916 mg/m3), indicating that the Chla estimation model that considers the spatial and temporal variations has a better performance and validation accuracy and therefore is more effective for remote sensing monitoring of water quality.\nWater quality Hyperspectral remote sensing Data partition Estimation model Case II water\nThe study was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 41471283). We would like to express our gratitude to Wang Lei, Zhang Xiaowei, Zhou Yu and Sun Xiaopeng for field work and to Zhang Jing for laboratory work.\nThe appendix section lists the typical Chla estimation models before and after the data partition. Figures 12, 13, 14, and 15 present the four models for Type I, II and III based on partitioned data and unpartitioned data; the subfigures in the Z order of each type present scatter plots between the model variable and lnChla, estimated and measured Chla, residuals and predicted Chla, and the QQ plot of residuals, respectively.\nBand ratio model parameters and diagnosis\nThree-band model parameters and diagnosis\nFour-band model parameters and diagnosis\nNCI model parameters and diagnosis\nBreiman, L., Friedman, J.

        "raw_content": "How far is educational equality for China? Analysing the policy implementation of education for migrant children\nShuiyun Liu\nThis research examined migrant children education (MCE) policies implemented in China since the late 1990s. The empirical study in Beijing demonstrated that MCE policies pushed public schools to enrol migrant children, but the policy objective of educational equality has not been fully realised. The policy implementers\u2019 capabilities and motivation did not meet expectations. The policy design and its implementing environment are also reflected upon. It was found that MCE policy objectives were legitimate and ambitious, but the policy design was vague. The central government did not provide support or pressure for policy implementation, thus the policy design was not favourable for effective implementation. Under the current political system, local governments have certain autonomy to decide the extent to which MCE policies are implemented; this is done in accordance with reciprocity between central and local government.\nMCE policies Migrant children Educational equality Educational policy Implementation\nWe thank 2017 Beijing Social Science Fund (17JYC028) and Funding for postgraduate students\u2019 training and teaching (00300-160112101), Beijing Normal University.\n21st Century Education Research Institute.

        "raw_content": "Semantic repetition blindness and associative facilitation in the identification of stimuli in rapid serial visual presentation\nManuel S. Seet\nIrina M. Harris\nRepetition blindness (RB) is the inability to detect both instances of a repeated stimulus during rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP). Prior work has demonstrated RB for semantically related critical items presented as pictures, but not for word stimuli. It is not known whether the type of semantic relationship between critical items (i.e., conceptual similarity or lexical association) determines the manifestation of semantically mediated RB, or how this is affected by the format of the stimuli. These questions provided the motivation for the present study. Participants reported items presented in picture or word RSVP streams in which critical items were either low-associate category coordinates (horse\u2013camel), high-associate noncoordinates (horse\u2013saddle), or unrelated word pairs (horse\u2013umbrella). Report accuracy was reduced for category coordinate critical items only when they were presented in pictorial form; accuracy for coordinate word pairs did not differ from that of their unrelated counterparts. Associated critical items were reported more accurately than unrelated critical items in both the picture and word versions of the task. We suggest that semantic RB for pictorial stimuli results from intracategory interference in the visuosemantic space; words do not reliably suffer from semantic RB because they do not necessitate semantic mediation to be reported successfully. Conversely, the associative facilitation observed in both picture and word versions of the task reflects the spread of activation between the representations of associates in the lexical network.\nRepetition blindness Rapid serial visual presentation Associative facilitation\nIrina M.

        "raw_content": "45 POUND (MORE OR LESS) is a must read. Not only is it an entertaining story, but it speaks to increasing concerns about body image and eating disorders. Its message will come through loud and clear to those dealing with weight issues, and even extends to friends and family of those struggling with their weight.\nJust like most of us, Ann has dieted many times, and usually ended up weighing more than when she started. Inspired by an infomercial promising easy, quick results, Ann invests her entire savings in the Secrets 2 Success diet plan. Simply follow their exercise program and eat their specially formulated meals and she is guaranteed to lose that weight.\nAnn is also inspired by the fact that her aunt is getting married in several months and has asked her to be a bridesmaid. The thought of trying on dresses terrifies her. Hopefully, she can lose 45 pounds in time for the wedding.\nComplicating matters for Ann is a mother obsessed with staying slim, a cute guy with dimples who keeps showing up at the mall where she works, and a stereotypical \"mean\" girl who works with her at The Twisted Pretzel. Ann desperately wants to lose weight, but when she sees how her dieting obsession and her mother's fixation with weight is effecting her four year old sister, she decides to take matters into her own hands.\n45 POUNDS (MORE OR LESS) is the debut novel of author K.A. Barson. Her combination of humor, quirky characters, and insight into issues of weight and dieting make this a novel that should be read by all girls and their moms. I can't wait to see what she has to offer next.\nEVIL BEHIND THAT DOOR by Barbara Fradkin\nThis is the other complimentary copy I received from the Rapid Reads collection at Orca Book Publishers. Once again it offers a high interest/low level solution for older YA readers.\nCedric \"Rick\" O'Toole makes ends meet by working as a handyman. When he is asked to help clean up an old farmhouse for a high school classmate recently released from prison, he has concerns about what he might be getting himself into. Rick and Barry weren't exactly the best of friends, but Rick knows Barry is dealing with some heavy stuff at the moment so he agrees to do the work.\nSeveral issues add to the mystery of EVIL BEHIND THAT DOOR. First, Barry's parents have both mysteriously disappeared. Searches have turned up nothing so Barry has inherited the family property and wants to sell it as soon as possible. Another issue arises when Barry sees Rick trying to enter a locked room in the basement. Barry immediately stops Rick telling him that there is evil behind that door and he should never open it.\nAs one would expect, Rick does open the door, and what he finds is indeed evil. Readers will anxiously turn the pages to get the answers to what Rick finds and the mystery of Barry's missing parents.\nTwelve year old Mila is looking forward to an adventure with her father. Traveling from their home in London to visit her father's best friend in New York should provide something to brag about when she gets back home. She promises her mother she will watch out for her absent-minded father and they depart.\nThe first disappointment comes when Mila discovers \"New York\" means a thinly populated area of upstate New York not the hustle and bustle of New York City. The second unfortunate element of the trip happens when she and her father arrive at the home of Matthew and his wife Suzanne to find that Matthew has disappeared.\nSensitive to the tension in their hosts' home, Mila begins to consider all sorts of scenarios involving the missing man. He left behind his wife and young son as well as his loyal dog, all the while knowing his best friend had planned a visit. Talk about strange!\nMore details reveal that as son about Mila's age died in a car accident three years earlier. Matthew was the driver of the car and had been prone to depression since the death of his son. His wife Suzanne suggests that perhaps Matthew has gone to a cabin farther north so Mila and her father head off in that direction.\nPICTURE ME GONE follows young Mila and her father as they attempt to solve the mystery of a missing friend. Mila's unusual relationship with her father and her uncanny ability to interpret people and situations will keep readers on their toes as each new twist and turn is revealed. This thought-provoking new novel by Meg Rosoff is due for release in October 2013.\nTHE BARRIO KINGS by William Kowalski\nA big thank you to the publisher for providing THE BARRIO KINGS for review. I have long been a fan of Orca Publishers and their high interest/low level offerings. When I heard about Rapid Reads from Raven Books (an imprint of Orca) for older YA students in alternative ed programs, I really wanted to check one out for a new program my school is offering this fall. One of the publisher reps kindly sent two my way.\nTHE BARRIO KINGS features a young man named Rosario Gomez facing the next challenge in his life, that of breadwinner and father. Once a member of the Barrio Kings gang, Rosario has turned his life around. He is about to earn his GED and get a well-deserved promotion at the grocery store where he works. It couldn't come at a better time since his girl friend is about to deliver their first child.\nJust when it seems that everything is perfect for Rosario, an old friend is released from prison and makes contact with Rosario. His old friend suggests that the two of them along with the Kings should seek revenge for what happened to Rosario's brother. Should he ignore the promise he made to his girl friend or rejoin his old gang and help lead the fight?\nTHE BARRIO KINGS is slightly over 100 pages, reads quickly, and contains just the right combination of action and drama to interest reluctant readers. With characters living in the adult world, there is definitely more appeal for alternative ed/adult ed readers attempting to improve reading skills. I look forward to reading another Rapid Read selection.\nFREAKBOY by Kristin Elizabeth Clark follows three characters struggling with transgender issues. Written in verse, it is a fast read that will speak to teens questioning their sexuality. With a release date of 10/13, FREAKBOY handles a sensitive subject with care and compassion.\nBrendan studies hard and has been a dedicated member of the wrestling team. He thinks it is pretty cool that his girl friend is also a member of the team. It gives them plenty of time together, but lately, Brendan has been struggling with something he can't share with her. He loves Vanessa, but he sometimes finds himself being jealous of the fact that she is a girl. Brendan sometimes pictures himself as a girl. He even goes so far as to purchase a green, satin bra. When he tries it on in the privacy of his room, he loves the curves it creates. But Brendan is extremely frightened by the term transgender and isn't sure how to deal with his feelings.\nVanessa loves Brendan, but she is losing patience with his shifting moods. One day he is the tough wrestler and doting boy friend, and the next day he claims he needs space and time alone. She knows he has battled depression since his parents' divorce and his mother's remarriage to a jerk he doesn't like, but there is something else bugging him that he isn't willing to share.\nAngel meets Brendan when he shows up at the teen center one afternoon. Despite a challenging childhood, Angel has come to terms with being transgender and works to help other struggling teens. Not sure of what Brendan's problem involves, Angel gives him a phone number and offers to help any time. Will he take advantage of the offer or can't he face his fears?\nThe three personalities intertwine to weave an inspirational story of facing fears and coming to terms with what makes each of us unique.\nTHE F- LIST by Julie Halpern\nI anticipate some will be offended by the title, but please don't let that stop you from picking up a copy of Julie Halpern's latest due out on Nov. 11, 2013.\nIn this teenage take on the \"bucket list,\" Halpern tackles such difficult topics as loss of a parent, illness of a friend, and young love. She does it in a no-nonsense, sometimes gut-wrenching directness.\nAlex is just getting used to the fact that her father is gone. Killed in a taxi accident, he left behind teenage Alex, her twin brothers, and their mother. It hasn't been a year yet since his death when Alex is jolted by another potential tragedy. Becca, Alex's best friend since elementary school, announces that she has cancer. Can Alex's quirky toughness get her through this latest challenge?\nAlex is surprised when her friend reveals a bucket list she created and even more shocked when Becca asks Alex to help her complete each item on the list in case she doesn't survive. The girls rename the list the F- It List and the adventure begins. What Alex doesn't count on is dealing with feelings of guilt when she finds herself in a relationship with Leo Dietz who she has long worshipped from afar.\nAlthough, the title, the language, and some of the sexual references might not be for the faint of heart, THE F- IT LIST takes readers on a heartfelt journey of what it means to be a true friend.\nImagine waking up on the floor of a cabin, tasting blood, realizing someone has pulled off several of your fingernails, and now they are talking about killing you. If that isn't scary enough, add in the fact that you don't have a clue about where you are or even who you are.\nAuthor April Henry's new thriller THE GIRL WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO DIE takes readers on a frightening adventure as a teen tries to piece together events leading her to a backwoods cabin and two men who want her dead. When she is able to escape, she takes off in an SUV belonging to one of the men in hopes of finding some answers.\nShe winds up seeking help from a security guard at a nearby resort only to find out he plans to hold her prisoner in the back of his security vehicle until someone from a mental facility comes to pick her up. She might not know much, but she does know she isn't this Katie person they claim committed assault and escaped from a loony bin. Once again she takes off and looks for a place to hide until she can decide what to do next.\nA mall parking lot looks like it might provide some protection, and a McDonald's restaurant will give her a place to clean up and get something to eat. Exhausted, she dozes off and is awaken by the cute guy who waited on her. When the two men show up looking for her, he offers to help. Can he help her figure out who she is and keep her safe from the men who want her dead?\nTHE GIRL WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO DIE is due out in August and promises to be a great end of summer read. Keep an eye out for this one at your local library or bookstore!\nZOM-B: ANGELS by Darren Shan\nB has survived the zombie attacks. Although, she was turned into a zombie, she was one of the lucky ones who revitalized which means even though she is dead, she still has her brain so she can think and reason. Struggling to survive in her current state, she has encountered others of her kind, some simply surviving and others, like Mr. Dowling, interested only in evil.\nConvinced that she only has a year and a half or two left before what's left of her body fails her, B is stumbling from place to place in hopes that she can make a difference. When she begins noticing strange new signs around the city bearing red arrows, B decides to follow them. She discovers a group of young revitalized like herself led by a man named Dr. Oystein. He claims to have found ways to make their lives more comfortable and calls the young people who follow him his Angels.\nWhen Dr. Oystein informs B that her life expectancy is actually several thousand years, she can hardly believe it. The news is welcoming but frightening at the same time. What is one to do for thousands of years when brains are the only food and sleep is impossible?\nB doesn't see much choice in the matter. She hopes Dr. Oystein will allow her to become one of his Angels and learn more about how his organization works.\nZOM-B: ANGELS is book #4 in Darren Shan's new series. Different than his world of vampires, the ZOM-B books contain an interesting mix of creepy characters, gory details, in addition to some rather serious subjects.\nI picked this one up courtesy of the publisher at ALA in Chicago. My neighbor read it first and told me I must make it the next book on my TBR pile. So glad I listened to her.\nSet in 1963 in Mississippi, the main character is nine year old Starla Claudelle. More than anything she wants to attend the Fourth of July fireworks, but having recently punched a local troublemaker in the nose, Starla is grounded. Furious that her grandmother has spoiled everything, Starla decides to run away to Nashville where her mother is following her dream to be a country singer.\nIt doesn't take long for Starla to find herself in a real mess. A kindly black woman named Eula offers her a ride. When Starla asks questions about the white baby crying on the floor of Eula's pickup, Eula tells her she found him abandoned on the church steps.\nStarla winds up at Eula's house, and when the woman's huge husband arrives, he isn't at all pleased to find two white children. When it is clear he means to kill Starla, Eula whacks him on the head with a skillet, killing him. Now Eula and Starla are on the run. Young Starla is confident that if they can just get to Nashville her mother will take them in and help Eula and the little baby boy.\nAuthor Susan Crandall weaves an amazing adventure, but even more than that, the relationships she creates give readers a glimpse into the South and the heart of the Civil Rights movement. Starla's innocent friendship with a black woman are in stark contrast with the prejudice and hate so prevalent in the South. Compared to TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD and THE HELP, critics are predicting WHISTLING PAST THE GRAVEYARD will be a classic.\nPROXY is perfect for fans of the I AM NUMBER FOUR series and authors like Anthony Horowitz and Alexander Gordon Smith. It is filled with non-stop action and an all too real depiction of the future.\nKnox and Syd have never met, but they have been connected since both teens were young boys. Syd is known as a proxy for Knox who is called his patron. Whenever Knox has misbehaved, Syd has taken his punishment. Each punishment translates into credits that Syd can use to purchase food, clothes, medical treatment, or anything else his meager existence in a ghetto called the Valve can't provide.\nSyd, an orphan, lives in the back of a shop and considers the shopkeeper the closest thing to a father he has ever had. While Syd barely scraps by with what he can earn fixing tech devices for other unfortunates who live in the ghetto, Knox lives a life of luxury. His mother died leaving him to live with a father who cares more about his business than his son. Despite his mostly absent father, Knox has the best of everything and, like most teens in the City, he doesn't appreciate it.\nOne night Knox takes his father's car for a joyride and crashes after losing control. He wakes up in the hospital to discover his injuries, though serious, are not life-threatening thanks to the high tech medical procedures his father is able to afford. Unfortunately, his female passenger didn't fare as well. She's dead. This latest \"mistake\" of Knox's results in a drastic and potentially deadly punishment for Syd.\nAn important rule regarding a patron and proxy is that the two never meet, however, circumstances arise that place both Knox and Syd at the same wild party. The two find themselves face to face and the adventure that follows could change life for everyone.\nSIX INNINGS by James Preller is not your typical baseball novel. Yes, there is spot-on play-by-play action and accurate details about little league baseball, but there is a lot more. Preller brings life to his characters that create much stronger connections for readers than simple sporting fun.\nIt is the championship game. The young players on both teams and their coaches are hoping for a win in this final game of the season. Each player seems to have a different reason for playing. Some are dedicated to the game and picture themselves playing long into their futures. Others are just as happy that this is the end of the season and also the end of their baseball careers.\nSam Reiser is at the center of all the action, but not because he is the star player. Sam is the announcer for the game. He longs to be on the field in the thick of things, but as the story unfolds, readers learn that Sam has cancer and isn't able to handle the rigors of actual play. As long as he can stay focused on the action and narrate it for the fans, he is able to deal with the physical exhaustion, the nausea, the hair loss, and the fact that he may never play again.\nWith each successive inning, readers learn about the key players and their motivation on and off the field. Preller's unique presentation of the game will enable readers to relate to players whose attitudes about baseball might reflect their own. There is a little something for everyone in this one of a kind sports thriller.\nAlways on the lookout for interesting accounts of the Holocaust, I picked this one up a few weeks ago. It wasn't until I got it home that I discovered it is book #2 of a trilogy. Last night I decided to go ahead and dive into the middle of things and just see what happened. Well, I'm finished and off to order the other two books!\nFelix is ten and Zelda is six. Felix is Jewish and Zelda is Catholic. They are both witnesses to the horror and violence of the Nazis. Having escaped from a prison camp train, they are on the run. Felix's goal is to find them a safe place and someone to protect them. He tells stories and tries to get Zelda to imagine the kindly farmer he hopes they will find to take them in and keep them well-fed and safe.\nTheir mad dash through the woods is fraught with danger. They never know when they will be discovered by someone out to rid the world of Jews or someone hoping to turn them in for some meager reward.\nThe two children are stopped by a horrifying sight - a huge hole filled with the bodies of other children shot to death by the Nazis. When a gruff woman meets up with Felix and Zelda, the children fear for their lives, but she takes them to her farm and convinces them she means no harm. Genia becomes the parent the two desperately need. However, even her good intentions can't guarantee their safety.\nHaving only read one of the three books, I still think this trilogy will pair well with Holocaust stories like NIGHT and DIARY OF A YOUNG GIRL.\nAccording to author Jo Knowles, fans of her book JUMPING OFF SWINGS wanted to know what happened to Josh. LIVING WITH JACKIE CHAN provides the answer.\nJosh needs to get away so he moves in with his uncle. Larry teaches karate at the YMCA and offers to have Josh live with him and complete his senior year at the local high school. Josh just wants to go to school and work hard to raise his grades so he can get into college and get started on his future.\nHelping Larry with the karate classes, Josh meets Stella. A friendship forms that has Josh hoping he can put his past aside and have a decent senior year. However, when school starts, he quickly realizes Stella's friendship doesn't include hanging out at school. A jealous boyfriend holds Stella's attention leaving Josh doubting the sincerity of her friendship.\nEven though Josh truly appreciates Larry's kindness and attention, he is constantly reminded of the past when the baby in the upstairs apartment cries. The late night cries have Josh dreaming of Ellie and the baby he saw for only moments before she gave it away. Deep inside he knows it was the right thing to do, but the guilt he feels about the one night he spent with Ellie is eating him alive.\nFans of JUMPING OFF SWINGS should be satisfied with this continuing story. It clears illustrates the aftermath of a life-changing mistake. Josh learns that he may never forget the painful past, but he may be able to grow from the experience.\nFor Hayley Kincain life has been filled with loss. Her mother died, her grandmother died, Trish her \"stepmother\" left, and her father left for several tours of duty in the Middle East. Now Hayley is seventeen and heading back to public school after years of homeschooling on the road with her father. She isn't planning on making many connections with her teachers or fellow students. The goal is to put in her time and try to hold things together at home.\nWhen her father returned from his last tour, he brought with him a leg injury, a purple heart, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. An addiction to alcohol and nights interrupted by nightmares of the battlefield have kept him from holding a job. He finally decided to try long haul trucking which resulted in Hayley traveling along for several years.\nAs Hayley's senior year approached, her father made plans to move into the house where he grew up so she can attend a regular school and get the credits required to apply for college. Hayley doesn't have high hopes for how all this will work out. She knows her dad doesn't take his medication and most of the time refuses to kept his doctor's appointments. Keeping an eye on him and dealing with the consequences when his PTSD takes control doesn't leave her with much energy to concentrate on school. With the help of Gracie, a childhood friend, and an unexpected relationship with a boy named Finn, Hayley is able to muddle through her days.\nThe unpredictable nature of PTSD is clearly evident in the roller coaster lifestyle of Hayley and her father. The incredible talent of author Laurie Halse Anderson enables readers to understand the life facing many returning veterans and their families today. She uniquely combines the devastation caused by war and the resiliency of the human spirit in her latest novel THE IMPOSSIBLE KNIFE OF MEMORY available in 2014. (Review copy provided by Penguin Publishers at ALA 2013.)\nTHE CHAMBER OF FIVE by Michael Harmon\nJason Weatherby goes to Lambert School for the Gifted. His father is a U.S. Congressman and expects his son to follow him in some sort of political career and going to the elite school is part of that plan.\nLambert is controlled by a group known as the Chamber of Five. Jason has just become part of the group, but now that he is one of the insiders, he is learning about the corrupt dealings of this secret group. The leader of the Chamber assigns Jason the task of having a certain freshman removed from the school.\nThe more Jason learns, the more he realizes that something must be done to shut down the Chamber and return to control of the school to the truly gifted students instead of the power-hungry bullies. When his father gets wind of Jason's plan, his temper flairs. Fed up with his father's abusive behavior, Jason continues on with his plan because he knows it is the right thing to do.\nAuthor Michael Harmon takes readers into the inner workings of the secret society within a private school. Jason proves that it is possible to stand up to corrupt forces to change things for his fellow classmates.\nMany readers will be able to relate to the main character in James Preller's BYSTANDER. Moving from Ohio to Bellport, Long Island, has made Eric the new kid on the block, and being the new seventh grader has put fear into the hearts of even the most well-adjusted kids.\nEric witnesses a terrified, ketchup-covered boy running from a group of kids. The boy escapes and Eric is left to confront his tormentors. One boy named Griffin appears to be the leader of the group. Griffin tries to intimidate Eric, but Eric is able to stand his ground. Hopefully, not all the kids in Bellport are like this Griffin character.\nWhen school starts, Eric quickly learns that Griffin is a bully but not a typical one. He seems to have many adults convinced that he is a polite, well-behaved kid. He operates by gaining the confidence of his followers and then getting them to do his dirty work. Eric falls victim to Griffin's cunning ways. It takes several unfortunate events and Eric being accused of having a weapon in his locker before Eric realizes exactly how much trouble Griffin can cause.\nAuthor James Preller deftly handles a current adolescent concern - bullying. By breaking the stereotype of the rough, tough bully, and revealing a more devious variety, Preller's story will make readers consider their own role in bullying situations.",

This year, he returns to present the 50 best studied for their quality medical and surgical.\nRanking 2013 of the public hospitals\nDo not languish advantage, in the top of the rankings so we can find the university hospital of Lille , which, therefore, is first, followed by the CHU of Toulouse , and finally the CHU of Bordeaux to the third position. They are followed by the university hospitals of Strasbourg in 4th position and the CHU of Nantes which go up in the 5th position. The CHU of Montpellier retrograde and goes to the 6th position, the first hospital in paris following at the 7th position thanks to the Piti\u00e9-Salp\u00eatri\u00e8re hospital of Paris. Then follow Nancy, Rennes, Grenoble, Amiens, Rouen, Tours, Caen, Clermont-Ferrand, Nice, and Limoges. Finally, The centre hospitalier de La Roche-sur-Yon (50e) closes the ranking. Attention, there is not that 50 hospitals in France, so they are not necessarily the most spoiled\u2026 50th on a thousand, that\u2019s a pretty good, non ? ?\nAnd on the side of the classification of clinical ?\nNote that another classification follows, it is the one that presents the 50 best private clinics. It is therefore interesting to see that the centre is a private hospital in Saint-Gr\u00e9goire (Ille-et-Vilaine) remains in first position, followed by the private hospital Jean Mermoz , Lyon (france) and arrived in third position, the New Clinical nantaises (Nantes).\nNantes is fairly well represented with a UHC in the Top 5 of public hospitals and clinics in the Top 3. I say, this is where I wanted to mutate me ? Ah well, at Nantes, of course !\nWell, even if this may be a good indicator, I find it hard to understand what are the criteria used in the assessment. The services do not have the same funding, different hospitals in their operation, the ratio of patient/caregiver can see it change, etc\u2026 And some may also say that you can get treated by an excellent doctor in a hospital ranked poorly by a bad doctor who is in an excellent hospital.

        "raw_content": "Teaching life cycle assessment using biofuels to develop process thinking and strengthen core science understanding\nMOYERS-MASTERS-REPORT.pdf (1.121Mb)\nMoyers, Audrea Haynes\nThis action research project focuses on teaching life cycle assessment to engineering students in high school, using biofuels as a relevant application. The study examined the effectiveness of teaching methods related to both the engineering content\u2014life cycle assessment\u2014and the science content\u2014biofuel production. It also examined underlying conceptions that students have about the preferability of some common consumer products from an environmental perspective, as well as their knowledge of ethanol compared to gasoline. The participants in the study consisted of sixteen college students enrolled in an Engineering Energy Systems course while pursuing either an undergraduate or graduate degree related to teaching engineering and science at the secondary level. The students participated in lessons written for a high school engineering science course currently under development in the UTeach Engineering program at The University of Texas at Austin. Data were collected from a pre- and post-unit assessment, observation of student activities and behaviors, and a participant survey. The results of the study suggest that student understanding of the environmental implications of products or processes is deeper after completion of the unit. The study also shows a positive relationship between hands-on sense-building activities and student engagement. As an action research project, the primary goal is the immediate improvement of teaching to increase learning in the classroom. Modifications to the unit and lesson design have been made based on the results of the study in preparation for using the unit with high school students in the following school year.",

There are several influencing factors, but despite a lot of research little is known about the influence from variations in the exposure conditions. Therefore an exposure programme has been made, where concrete specimens, made from one single concrete composition, have been exposed at 12 marine locations around the world, along with a parallel study under laboratory conditions. The specimens have been constantly submerged during the exposure to get well-defined exposure conditions. The purpose was to get a quantitative measure of how different exposure conditions influence the durability of reinforced concrete, measured in terms of chloride ingress into the concrete. The results indicate that the exposure conditions (salinity and temperature of seawater), as expected, influenced the chloride ingress. This is further analysed and discussed in the paper.

        "title": "Ramayana \u00ab revnettie",
        "raw_content": "The Ramayana: How an Ancient Tale Slowly Made a Monkey Out of Me\nAbout 20 years ago, I was standing in Borders Books in Stamford CT, leafing through this beautiful and expensive hardcover volume that I decided to buy for a friend of mine who was an artist as well as an India-phile. An artist myself, I knew a beautiful set of illustrations when I saw them, and knew she would adore the book. I was vaguely familiar with the fact that the Ramayana was an ancient Indian tale, albeit one I\u2019d never read. As I paged through the story, I read the brief recounting of the tale that accompanied the lush illustrations. When I got toward the end of the narrative\u2014 which involved a hapless woman being forced to give a test of her purity by fire\u2014I lost all interest, but I still loved the pictures. I meant to eventually buy myself a copy of the book, but I never got around to it.\nI did not know then that the illustrator, B.G. Sharma, was one of the most famous modern sacred artists in India. I did not know then that the monkey on the cover would, over the course of many more years, subtly inveigle his way into my consciousness. And I certainly did not know then that this tale would slowly take over my very existence.\nI\u2019m hardly alone in that, though. Versions of the Ramayana are known all over Asia, and the tale has been told for time out of mind. There are hundreds if not thousands of entire websites devoted to it; there have been an abundance of film and tv versions made in India (every decade inspires a new remake that can keep up with advances in special effects); there are books of philosophy written about it and teachings in universities and business schools based on the lessons therein. It is told and retold and re-enacted and re-illustrated.\nA dance company presents a classic interpretation of Ramayana\nAnd anything that has that kind of sway over that many people for that long a time seemed to be at least worth familiarizing myself with.\nOne thing I came to appreciate: it\u2019s impossible to have an understanding of India or Indian culture without familiarity with its two great epics: The Ramayana and The Mahabharata. The two express the very soul of India in a way that, in my opinion, has no comparison in Western culture. It forms a vocabulary and a frame of reference for everything from the most ordinary facets of life to the highest halls of learning and spirituality.\nBut that does not explain why it stole into my own life to the point where, really, I could only admit to others of the same ilk the degree to which it has taken over and pretty much crowded out 80% of everything else.\nI should pause here to say that my involvement with The Mahabharata preceded my romance with Ramayana. It all started in 2005 during a visit to India, when I shipped home two huge volumes that constituted an abridged (only 2000 pages) Mahabharata, and was soon followed by a translation of the Ramayana. My obsession with both epics has continued pretty much unabated since then. It seems that The Mahabharata alternates with the Ramayana in my life, much like Beethoven contrasts with Mozart\u2014different temperaments; both awesome, both transformative, both able to bring you into the realm of the transcendent if you allow them.\nEach character in these epics embodies an aspect of human life and aspiration. We can see ourselves in all our greatness and all our folly, much like the phenomenon that makes Shakespeare timeless despite the changing idioms and languages of five centuries.\nBut that understanding was still not enough to explain my obsession.\nUntil finally, the mystery got solved a year ago, when, driven by this compulsion, I attended a three-day Ramanyana retreat with Swami Jyotirmayananda of Yoga Research Foundation in Miami, FL, whom I\u2019d heard about from my friend Patty.\nWith Swami Jyotirmayananda & Divyajyoti (Patty DiFazio) this year at Yoga Research Foundation\nThat retreat afforded me the rare opportunity to be in the presence of one who is both an eminent scholar & author and an enlightened sage. It\u2019s a killer combo; and I\u2019m sure he was drawn into my life at that juncture by the intensity of my interest. When I say he is an enlightened sage, I don\u2019t mean enlightened as in \u201che sheds light on the subject\u201d, (although he does that too), but enlightened as in \u201chas attained total Divine Union and bliss consciousness with God while still in a human body.\u201d Only an enlightened sage can speak of the symbols and deep meanings in these stories not from a philosophical speculation or intellectual explanation, but from direct soul experience.\nSwami Jyotirmayanada\u2019s wonderful exposition of the mystic meanings encoded in the Ramayana. Click on the picture to order the book!\nWhat I realized in the first few hours of listening to him was that the reason these tales had moved into my mental neighborhood and evicted most of the earlier residents is that they are encoded maps to enlightenment. Far beyond being references for life in the everyday world, they are maps of the journey of the Soul to Re-Union (yoga) with itSelf. At the deepest, most archetypal level, the part of me that had been on this path for a long time recognized that fact even though I could not name it. And understanding that which Swamiji calls the mystic meanings, resolves most of my conflicts about various events in the story.\nI now believe that certain archetypes speak to our understanding of the Journey of Life, but on different levels. Some archetypes serve to inform us about the wisdom of leading our life on this earth plane. Many fairy tales come under this heading, as do Shakespeare and other beloved stories from many cultures.\nThe Ramayana (and the Mahabharata) do this as well, but they go a giant leap further\u2014beyond the earth plane to the true purpose of the journey of the soul: Divine RE-Union.\nI was taught by Caroline Myss that the ancient Mystery Schools divided the Mysteries into Lesser Mysteries and Greater Mysteries. The Lesser Mysteries were for those in the outer courts; those who needed the veil of symbols and rituals to enact for them great spiritual truths that the masses were not capable of digesting whole. Only Initiates were allowed into the Greater Mysteries; and the net result of the Greater Mysteries was attaining the actual integrated experience that All is One, aka Divine Union\u2014enlightenment.\nThe Ramayana is the Lesser and the Greater Mysteries all rolled into one. At the level of the Lesser Mysteries, it\u2019s a great mythic story with the usual gangs of Gods and Demons, Heroes and Villains, Damsels in Distress, Triumphs and Tragedies. But at the Greater Mysteries level, it\u2019s the Treasure Hunt Map to the Long Journey Home. The same holds true for the Mahabharata, which holds at its great heart the Bhagavad Gita, which serves as the ultimate scripture for more than a billion people.\nThe Ramayana contains something that the Mahabharata does not*: Hanuman.\n(*Note: Hanuman actually has an important cameo role in the Mahabharata, but in the Ramayana he is one of the hearts of the story.)\nHanuman is the monkey on the cover of the book that first drew me in. Devotion to Hanuman was, at another point in my own journey, frankly, quite alien to me no matter how expansive my background.\nLong before I had any familiarity with any epic outside of my own culture\u2019s, I remember reading a quote from Sathya Sai Baba in one of my study groups, how Hanuman was the Lord\u2019s greatest devotee of all time.\n\u201cGreat,\u201d I thought, knowing absolutely nothing about Hanuman at the time, \u201ca monkey is the greatest devotee. Then what chance do humans have? Very discouraging.\u201d\nWhen I actually read the story, I came to understand that the vanaras, which we translate as \u201cmonkey\u201d, but which I\u2019ve seen translated as forest dwellers, were far beyond our present-day conception of monkeys. In the Ramayana, they are the incarnations of demigods, born expressly to help Vishnu, the aspect of God that is devoted to preserving and sustaining creation, to overcome the evil which had gotten out of bounds. The demigods needed to take this form because the chief antagonist of the age, the demon Ravana, had secured a boon which made him invulnerable to all\u2014all except for man and apes, both of whom he considered too puny to be concerned about. Vishnu descends to earth to aid mankind by incarnating as a man\u2014four men in fact: Rama and his three brothers. Vishnu\u2019s eternal consort, Lakshmi, incarnates as Sita, born of the earth itself, intimately expressing the connection between God and Nature, between Creator and Creation. In order to help Vishnu in this divine mission to destroy evil, the aspect of God that represents destruction (or transformational energy)\u2014Shiva himself\u2014is born as the invincible Hanuman, whose only raison d\u2019etre is to serve Rama.\nRama and Sita, with Lakshman and Hanuman\nIt was through Swami Jyotirmayananda\u2019s teachings that I came to understand why the most recognized pictures of the Ramayana always depict this quartet: Rama, his wife Sita, his brother Lakshman, and kneeling at their feet, always, Hanuman. Ram is the embodied symbol of the all-pervasive pure God consciousness; the Eternal Witness. Sita represents the intuitional intellect, or the higher intuitional wisdom of the mind. Lakshman, the devoted warrior-brother-with-a-quick-temper embodies the Will to action, and Hanuman, the immortal and invincible one who could literally \u201cmove mountains\u201d is the aspect of Devotion. Where there is Hanuman, there is Ram; where there is Devotion, there is God. It is the power of devotion that moves mountains, that melts the heart of the Lord, that creates miracles, that manifests our own Superpowers. Ram is victorious only because of Hanuman; Hanuman accomplishes all his victories through the power of Ram.\nAmong the various routes back to divine knowledge of the eternal Self, (yoga), Devotion, or Bhakti in Sanskrit, is the path of yoga to which I gravitate. I\u2019ve never been a disciplined meditator (Raja yoga), I often fail to live up to my own noble notions of spending more time in selfless service (the path of Karma, or Action-oriented yoga), I\u2019m not proficient or consistent in my occasional flirtations with Hatha (physical) yoga, and while I love to read, I\u2019m far more drawn to the stories and legends (Puranas) than I am to pure Jnana (philophical inquiries). But Bhakti is like my home country: singing, chanting, mantras, silent repetition of one of the names or aspects of the Divine have become so integrated into my life that they are all like breathing.\nSince Hanuman is the ultimate symbol of devotion, it followed that, whether I liked it or not, I have, little by little found that indeed, there is a legendary Monkey on My Back, and I have no intentions of shaking him off any time soon, or any time at all, for that matter. I do intend, from time to time, to share some reflections on the Ramayana and its well-traversed episodes, of which there is a seemingly inexhaustible font of interpretations and observations to mine.\nAlthough I\u2019d already read several book versions of the Ramayana, and had seen the great 1988 television series by Ramanand Sagar\u2014which, when first aired, literally brought India to a standstill and which has been seen by an estimated 100 million people in its time\u2014it was when I stumbled across the later 2008 Sagar tv version that I became a totally lost cause.\nThe music throughout the series by legendary composer and singer Ravindra Jain slays me, and to this day I react viscerally to the theme song.\nFortunately for me, I have infected my housemate, friend and colleague, Jan, with Ramayana disease. One night, when we were watching yet another go-round of some version of Rama\u2019s story, she turned to me and asked: \u201cIs this what we\u2019ll be doing for the rest of our lives? Watching the Ramayana?\u201d\n\u201cPretty much, yes,\u201d I replied. \u201cis there anything else?\u201d\nIt\u2019s my intention to share some of the rich journey with that story on these pages here from time to time, hopefully making the wisdom accessible to people who are not so enamoured of immersing themselves in the story.\nJai Hanuman! Jai Sri Ram!",

        "raw_content": "New statement from Amnesty: \u201cThere were 15 reported deaths\u201d\nThe day after the BBC backed down in the face of legal threats from Trafigura over their claim that the company\u2019s waste caused deaths\u2026\nIn August 2006, toxic waste was brought to Abidjan on board the ship Probo Koala, which had been chartered by oil-trading company, Trafigura.\nThis waste was then dumped in various locations around the city, causing a human rights tragedy. More than 100,000 people sought medical attention for a range of health problems and there were 15 reported deaths.\nOn 23 September 2009, the High Court of England and Wales approved a $45 million settlement between nearly 30,000 victims of the toxic waste dumping and Trafigura.\nIndex and PEN condemn BBC climbdown\nFrom Index on Censorship\nIndex on Censorship and English PEN today have expressed dismay that the BBC has conceded the libel action brought by toxic waste shippers Trafigura in the High Court. We believe this is a case of such high public interest that it was incumbent upon a public sector broadcaster like the BBC to have held their ground in order to test in a Court of law the truth of the BBC\u2019s report or determine whether a vindication of Trafigura was deserved.\nThe case was brought by Trafigura after the BBC claimed in its Newsnight programme of 13 May 2009 that Trafigura had caused deaths by being involved in the dumping of toxic waste in Abidjan in the Ivory Coast.\nThe United Nations Special Rapporteur Prof Okechukwu Ibeanu concluded in a report on 3 September 2009 that:\n\u201cOn the basis of the above considerations and taking into account the immediate impact on public health and the proximity of some of the dumping sites to areas where affected populations reside, the Special Rapporteur considers that there seems to be strong prima facie evidence that the reported deaths and adverse health consequences are related to the dumping of the waste from the Probo Koala.\u201d\nTrafigura has paid out $200 million to the government of the Ivory Coast, and in London settled for \u00a330 million a joint action made by 31,000 Ivorians.\nBut the BBC has now apparently conceded that the toxic waste dumped by the Probo Koala did not cause deaths, serious or long-term injuries and retracted their Newsnight piece in full and removed all reports from their web site.\nEnglish PEN and Index on Censorship believe that costs were a major factor behind the BBC\u2019s decision. According to a leading media lawyer, Mark Stephens of FSI, the cost of such a case would have been in excess of \u00a33 million. In its statement the BBC said:\n\u201cThe BBC withdraws the allegation that deaths, miscarriages or serious or long-term injuries were caused by the waste and apologises to Trafigura for having claimed otherwise.\u201d\nJohn Kampfner, CEO of Index on Censorship said:\n\u201cSadly, the BBC has once again buckled in the face of authority or wealthy corporate interests. It has cut a secret deal. This is a black day for British journalism and once more strengthens our resolve to reform our unjust libel laws.\u201d\nJonathan Heawood, Director of English PEN, said:\n\u201cForced to choose between a responsible broadcaster and an oil company which shipped hundreds of tons of toxic waste to a developing country, English libel law has once again allowed the wrong side to claim victory. The law is an ass and needs urgent reform.\u201d\nLibel reform campaign launches in Parliament\nTime to reign in the rogue libel outfits?\nI was gutted to be missing this event due to ongoing winter lurgee \u2013 but delighted to see that Malcolm Grant, provost of my old college UCL, was the first university head to sign up to the campaign:\nA university leader has thrown his weight behind a campaign to reform England\u2019s libel laws amid growing concern about so-called \u201clibel tourism\u201d and its impact on academia.\nMalcolm Grant, provost of University College London and a trained lawyer, told Times Higher Education that the current laws were having an impact beyond Fleet Street and were stifling scientific debate and academic freedom.\n\u201cIt is fundamental and critically important that the threat of libel law be lifted from scientific dispute,\u201d he said, describing it as \u201cquite chilling\u201d that the laws were being used to threaten scholars with heavy financial penalties for making simple points about science.\nProfessor Grant is joining representatives from science, journalism, publishing and the literary sector this week to launch a new petition for libel-law reform, organised by the charity Sense About Science, the free-speech organisation Index on Censorship and English PEN, which represents authors.\nHe said: \u201cThere are not many vice-chancellors who are lawyers, and I am heading up a very strong science university, so I think it is important to be involved.\u201d\nThe petition calls for \u201cmajor reforms\u201d of the English libel laws, saying they \u201cinhibit debate\u201d and \u201cstifle free expression\u201d.",

That involved resizing it for a higher resolution (300 DPI), and creating the back cover and spine. She did it while on an airplane!\nAmazon does make the process as easy as they can, but there are several steps I didn\u2019t anticipate, and they do some kind of review for content (apparently to make sure I\u2019m not stealing someone else\u2019s content). That caused a few delays, which is why I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d have this ready for sale on the same day I launched the e-book. But it\u2019s coming together! I should get a proof copy tomorrow to review, and if everything looks like it did online, I\u2019ll release it for sale on Friday with the e-book.\nSo on Friday, the e-book will be free until July 1, and then the price gets set at $3.99. The paperback will be $11.99 (sorry, I can\u2019t do that one for free.

All while 7,000 to 10,000 Americans died weekly from cancer!\nGood examples of public irresponsibility from people in positions of public trust or professions with public trust implied! Shame!\nBarry Lynes September 25, 1999\nThe Cancer Cure That Worked: The Rife Report was published in April 1987, 14 months after the U.S. Congress turned its back on Rife and ignored an incredible opportunity to \"jump start\" the Rife revival.\nThe Planet The cure for cancer was covered up\nTreatment suppressed since 1930s\nReprinted with permission from Barry Lynes\nIt has been a secret for many years --more than 50 years in fact. It is a secret that is a shame of the medical profession and another example of complacent press, another example of a scientific conspiracy that resembles more a medieval guild protecting its financial interests than a profession dedicated to public service, and another example of a political system afraid to promote the public good when it clashed with powerful elites.\nThis story also demonstrates how apathetic, asleep, cowardly and unwilling so many individuals, especially the self-righteous \"new agers,\" actually are when given the opportunity to take real initiatives which could rectify monstrous wrongs.\nThe secret is the cancer cure.\nBefore detailing this fundamental wrong, it is important to emphasize what 50 years of covering up a cancer cure has meant in terms of suffering. Almost every family in America has been touched by the horror of lingering deaths by cancer. Those who haven't been directly affected have known neighbors and friends who have been the victims of both the disease and the arrogant scientists, government bureaucrats and financial elites who are responsible. Children have been among the many millions who have not only been abandoned to cancer's excruciating pain and protracted terror, but to existing, stupid, torturous, experimental procedures which don't work. In a word, the American medical and political \"establishment\" are guilty of gross misconduct.\nOur nation is premised upon democratic procedures, checks and balances, competition, and the correction of abuses through open discussion which lead to institutional change. In the matter of this 50 year old cancer cure, all of the above have not worked. The cancer cure was suppressed. Agencies, both public and private, were not responsive. The cost in human lives and wasted resources has been staggering. A Vietnam War, the countless annual deaths in automobile accidents, or' the lives prematurely ended because of inferior nutrution caused by poverty together cannot match the number who have died horribly because America's culture could not expose and then break the vested interests which perpetrated this crime. And if Colorado Governor Lamm's figures are correct, one-third of Americans now living will die of cancer in the future. Americans tion of committed scientitst, and to promote the needed public education. So perhaps finally -~ if enough of us insist on it -- America's institutional ability to correct this outrage can be demonstrated. But don't hold your breath. Without a major, on-going, public commitment and a national authority to oversee the effort and report regularly on the progress being. made, it is unlikely that swift, significant remedies will occur.\nIn another article in this issue (The Timid Press, Page 1), syndicated columnist Mary McGrory's acceptance speech upon receiving the Lovejoy journalism award is reported. In that talk, Ms. McGrory advocated that readers read their papers \"with the idea of doing something.\" In a similar vein, the article on the changing weather and the scientific cover up involved, science philosopher Paul Feyerabend is quoted when he calls for \"duly elected committees of laymen\" to judge the efforts and recommendations of scientists.\nCertainly, if anything deserves both the individual reader's commitment as well as participation in oversight committees, it is the investigation into this cancer cure and the development of procedures to bring this cancer cure into practical use as fast as possible.\nThis story is somewhat technical, but the complicated scientific details will be omitted in order that you, the reader, can grasp the essentials. The specifics can be checked elsewhere and it is hoped that enough of you --including experts capable of initiating action will do so. A mobilization is required, for not only cancer. but AIDS and many other diseases threatening us are potentially capable of being eradicated if we, the people of the United States, get off our collective asses.\nIn the 1920s a scientist-inventor named Royal Raymond Rife invented a new kind of microscope. In an article New Age Journal March produced little from New readers), the story of Rife's cancer cure was detailed. Since then, Rife has been nominated for the \"Alternative Nobel Prize\" which is annually awarded in Europe as a protest to the more established, less risk taking Swedish honor. Yet, little notice of Rife and his miraculous discovery has infiltrated the establishment m consciousness.\nRife's microscope was a stunning advance. Unlike the electron microscope, Rife's microscope made it possible to study \"living\" bacteria, viruses, and so forth. An electron microscope kills its specimens. Rife's remarkable breakthrough used a new approach to bend light. As a result, Rife was able to prove that bacteria could change their form. In effect, they could become cancer causing viruses.\nRife then implanted his cancer-causing bacteria into rats. Tumors subsequently developed. From here, Rife made the startling discovery that the bacteria could change into a completely different form if the \"medium on which they were living\" was slightly altered. In other words, Rife's cancer causing substance was, in some forms and in association with some environments within the body, deadly. But in other forms and in other environments, benign. His cancer causing substance could be changed back and forth from one to the other. The implications of this discovery are obvious. Cancer cells might be transformed to healthy cells again!\nRife then began beaming different frequencies of light on these microorganisms. Up until the early 1950s, Rife perfected this method. As Christopher Bird reported in the New Age article, \"many lethal those of tuberculosis, typhoid, leprosy . . . appeared to disintegrate or 'bIow up' in the field of his microscope.\" This \"death ray\" was applied to cancers in rats. It worked!\nThe next step was humans. The result? Here is Rife's report: \"The first clinical work on cancer was completed under the supervision of Milbank Johnson, M.D., which was setup under a special medical research committee of the University of Southern California. Sixteen cases were treated at the clinic for manv tvpes of malignancy. After three months, fourteen of these so-called hopeless cases were signed off as clinically cured by a staff of medical doctors and Alvin G. Foord, M. D., pathologist for the group.\nThroughout the 1930's, Rife and associates continued their work. In 1940, Arthur W. Yale, M.D. reported that Rife's discoveries were an entirely new theory of the origin and cause of cancer, and the treatment and results have been so unique and unbelievable\" that we' may be able to \"eliminate the second largest cause of deaths in the United States.\"\nBut it was not to be!\nThere were powerful doctors whose careers were based on the theory that bacteria could not change its form. Rife's discovery threatened their status and their own research. (It was like the invention of the automobile for a horse-drawn carriage driver.)\nOne of these \"authorities\" was Dr. Thomas Rivers of the Rockefeller Institute. Another was Harvard microbiologist Dr. Hans Zinsser. The cancer cure was killed by the powerful.\nOne of Rife's supporters, Dr. Edward C. Rosenow, a pioneer bacteriologist, sadly commented at the end of his life, \"They simply won't listen.\"\nOthers have followed Rife and have confirmed different aspects of his theory, but since they are few in number and are promoting a cause contrary to the medical establishment's approved philosophy, they are not supported. Even publishing their findings is difficult if not impossible because of the dominant medical orthodoxy which has reigned since the 1930s!\nChristopher Bird's 1976' New Age Journal article contained a, summation of the political coverup as perceived by the Lee Foundation of Nutritional Research in Milwaukee. According to Bird, the Lee Foundation \"maintains that Rife, his microscope and his life work were tabooed by Ieaders in the U.S. medical profession and that any medical doctor who made use of his practical discoveries was stripped of his privileges as a member of the local medical society.\"\nThe Food and Drug Administration (FDA) still bans treatments similar to those of Rife.\nAnd how many millions of dollars are annually \"invested\" in the establishment's preferred quackery and toururous gimmicks?\nThose interested in pursuing this matter, which as a first step means forming a national committee of scientists, administrators, \"can-do-types\" and laymen to monitor and correct this crime are encouraged to contact The Planet. Perhaps citizen action is not entirely dead in this country yet.\nOr have we truly lost our nerve, our fighting spirit, and our 1776 contempt for aristrocracy assuming dictatorial rights over our bodies and minds?",

        "raw_content": "The Universal Credit Row and Our Basic Human Rights\nUniversal Credit is a new social security benefit that\u2019s currently being rolled out across the UK.\nSeveral politicians and charities \u2013 including some within Theresa\u2019s May Government \u2013 have asked for the new scheme to be paused or stopped. But how does this relate to our human rights?\nHang On, What Even is Universal Credit?\nImage Credit: JJ Ellison / Wikimedia\nCurrent Benefits Universal Credit Will Replace\nIncome-Based Employment and Support Allowance\nEssentially, Universal Credit (UC) will replace a range of existing benefits. It is the core part of a long-running programme of welfare reform from the Conservatives, which aims to save \u00a318 billion.\nIt\u2019s also hoping to simplify the benefits system, increase incentives to move off benefits and into work, and to reduce worklessness and poverty.\nUniversal Credit (UC) is a new benefit for people on low incomes, both in and out of work. It is means-tested, paid on a monthly basis, and paid to households rather than individuals.\nThe new scheme began to roll out in 2013 and was supposed to completed by 2019. However, IT and admin issues meant it kept being pushed back, and it is now expected to be complete by 2022, with an acceleration from October 2017.\nThe Right Kind of Social Reform?\nImage Credit: Aris Sfakianakis / Unsplash\nMany people across the political spectrum agree that the UK social security system needs reform, namely replacing a range of benefits with a single, simplified payment.\nBut UC aims to do more than merely simplifying the social security system \u2013 it intends to save the Government billions by reducing or removing entitlements for many people in an effort to incentivise work over benefits. The wider effort to reduce public spending led to a range of additional cuts to UC entitlements, even before it was fully rolled out.\nWhile an impact assessment was carried out on the original UC design in 2012, it was not updated to reflect subsequent cuts. The Government stand by the changes not \u201cfundamentally altering the service\u201d. However, the Resolution Foundation says they\u201chave taken Universal Credit too far from its original purpose [and] unless changes are made it risks being reduced to little more than a very complicated vehicle for cutting the benefits bill.\u201d\nA Five Week Wait For Payment\nImage Credit: Simon Matzinger / Unsplash\nOne of the more controversial parts of the plans is so-called \u201cwaiting days\u201d, which are designed to discourage people applying for benefits to cover short-term periods of unemployment or sickness. For example, the waiting time for Jobseekers\u2019 Allowance (JSA) used to be 3 days, which was then increased to 7 days. Now JSA is being replaced by UC, which is paid monthly in arrears, this waiting period has dramatically increased to 5 weeks (7 waiting days plus one month in arrears).\nDuring this 42 day period, there is a risk that people may fall into rent arrears, debt, homelessness, reliance on foodbanks, or crime. Advance payments are available, but these are loans that have to be paid back through deductions to UC payments. The waiting time could directly affect a claimant\u2019s rights to life, education, family and private life, property and even inhuman or degrading treatment through poor living conditions.\nNew Systems of Sanctions\nImage Credit: Stux / Pixabay\nSanctions are reductions or suspensions of benefit payments because a person has not met the conditions. This could be failing to attend jobcentre appointments or refusing to accept a job.\nUC claimants are placed into four groups based on their ability to work. Different levels of sanctions apply to each group and everyone in the \u2018all work-related requirements group\u2019 can receive the highest level sanction, with payments stopped or cut for 91 days for a \u201cfirst sanction\u201d and up to 1,095 days for a third.\nThe problem is that many of these initial sanctions are overturned on appeal, but any hardship payments during the sanction period are repayable through UC at a rate of 40%.\nResearch commissioned by Salford Council suggests that a sudden loss of income by removing benefits could damage mental health, create tensions within family relationships and cause individuals to commit crimes. This clearly has implications for claimants\u2019 human rights, especially as the Government has admitted sanctions were applied wrongly in 30% of cases.\nA Change in the Household Dynamics \u2013 Especially For Women\nImage Credit: King County Parks / Flickr\nUC is paid on a monthly, household basis, whereas traditionally benefits have been paid to individuals every two weeks. The Women\u2019s Budget Group argues the change reinforces the idea of a male breadwinner, discourages second earners and is likely to increase women\u2019s financial dependence on their partners, making them more vulnerable to financial and other abuse. The Human Rights Act protects us from discrimination on the basis of gender and race, amongst other things, and from torture or inhuman and degrading treatment such as domestic abuse.\nAnother technical, but significant change is that the single payment is given directly to claimants to cover all costs, including housing, which was traditionally paid directly to landlords. Pilot schemes found claimants prioritised other costs over rent payments, leading to significant increases in rent arrears and evictions. Recent reports also found that three councils whose tenants have already been moved on to UC had built up about \u00a38 million in rent arrears, meaning more than 2,500 tenants were now at risk of eviction.\nLimited Support for Children and Young People\nImage Credit: Laura Aziz / Unsplash\nTwo other changes to UC\u2019s design arguably have an impact on claimants\u2019 right to not to be discriminated against on the basis of their age, gender or ethnicity.\nIn 2015 the Government announced that the family element (which awards extra money for each child) would be restricted to the first two children in a family. The impact assessment acknowledged that this measure was most likely to affect women and ethnic minority families.\nFrom April 2017, young people age 18-21 year are no longer entitled to the housing costs element of UC (with some exceptions). The measure aims to \u201censure young people in the benefits system face the same choices as young people who work and who may not be able to afford to leave home\u201d. Organisations against the measure say that it represents the removal of an \u201cessential safety net\u201d for young people at risk of homelessness. The Government\u2019s equality analysis shows that men are more likely to be affected by the policy.\nSocial security and human rights\nImage Credit: Randy Jacob / Unsplash\nAs we\u2019ve explored in articles on the welfare state and poverty, people on low incomes are (sometimes entirely) reliant on the Government for their existence and fulfilment of rights, from decent education to social housing, and job creation to welfare policy. The Government acknowledged some of the problems with Universal Credit, for example by lowering the taper rate at which a UC payment reduces as someone moves into work from 65p to 63p, and providing extra money for discretionary housing payments.\nWhile decisions about Universal Credit work allowances or withdrawal tapers may seem technical, they represent important choices that the Government has made about how to support the most financially vulnerable people. These choices have a significant impact on the fulfilment of these peoples\u2019 basic human rights.\nFeatured Image: EU2017EE / Flickr\nLegal Permission No Longer Needed In Some Right To Die Cases\nDoctors and relatives of patients with severely debilitating conditions will no longer have to seek court approval to end life-supporting treatment after a significant new\u2026\n'Crisis' Over Access to Justice in the UK\nThe Government should pass a new Right to Justice Act, to ensure that there are minimum standards on access to justice, according to a new\u2026\nRemembering Ren\u00e9 Cassin, Father of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights\nIn a French city, an iconic stainless steel and glass building mirrors the calm waters of a river, creating \u201ca symbolic landmark but not a\u2026",

        "raw_content": "His organisation\u2019s name was on the marquee, but no-one invited him to the party. We understand there was no attempt at all to invite Rupert Murdoch to last week\u2019s Paris conference on The Media World after WikiLeaks and News of the World.\nAnd the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, couldn\u2019t attend the conference, being unable to leave the UK for well-documented reasons.\nBut Assange\u2019s organisation says they only got eight days notice that they could send a representative, circumstances that Wikileaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson characterised as a de facto ban on their participation and \u201ccensorship\u201d.\nHrafnsson was particularly exercised by the speaker list, which included several journalists who seem to have crossed Assange in the past.\nIn fact the principles of transparency and justice that WikiLeaks espouse were well defended by the brilliant J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Zimmermann, co-founder of the citizen advocacy group La Quadrature du Net. It was left to him to remind everyone that of the two accused organisations, only one does what they do for corporate profit.\nNot speaking for Assange, but still supportive, was WikiLeaks\u2019 occasional legal advisor, Geoffrey Robertson QC. (Robertson\u2019s quip of the day, after counting Assange as a \u201cgreat Australian\u201d, was to say the same of Murdoch, but only \u201cin the sense that Atilla was a great Hun\u201d.)\nThe end result was a shortlived attempt to stoke outrage on Twitter and what turned out to be an unheeded call to to WikiLeaks supporters to #OccupyUNESCO, the United Nations cultural agency that was hosting the event.\nThe organisers, the World Press Freedom Committee (WPFC), and UNESCO itself, argued that the conference was about journalism in the wake of the WikiLeaks and News of the World sagas, \u201cand not about the episodes themselves\u201d.\nWPFC asserted its right to pick the speakers they liked, but offered to distribute a WikiLeaks statement \u201cand include it in the published conference proceedings\u201d. It was left to UNESCO to issue the (unaccepted) invite to a WikiLeaks representative a week later.\nOn the eve of the conference, UNESCO reconfirmed to Index on Censorship that if Hrafnsson wanted to attend, he would be allowed to speak. He didn\u2019t attend. The e-mail trail between Hrafnsson and the organisers is here.\nIt is odd to call a conference to discuss a media landscape transformed by WikiLeaks and the News of the World, then not invite from the outset, people to speak for the pair that did the transforming.\nMost interesting \u2013 in what was still a useful event \u2013 would have been to hear how the two key actors in the two very different dramas were themselves redefining their own organisations\u2019 roles in their wake.\nMurdoch was that very day in London reinventing the News of the World as the Sun on Sunday, while WikiLeaks is reported to be planning it\u2019s own reinvention as a part of The Global Square, an online global collaboration peer-to-peer platform for activists due to prototype next month.\nRobertson said of Assange\u2019s absence that it was all a bit like \u201cHamlet without the Prince\u201d. Or Princes, in this case, I\u2019d say.\nKevin Gosztola\u2019s first day liveblog from the conference is on Firedoglake here.\nPosted in Freedom of ExpressionTagged media, wikileaks\nLindsay Hilsum: \u2018My friend, Marie Colvin\u2019",

        "raw_content": "\u201cThe Godfather of Pipes\u201d inducted into the Sturgis motorcycle museum and hall of fame\nby Stan Price | Dec 4, 2008\nKenny Price, founder of Samson Exhaust, is the inventor and leading innovator of numerous patented high-performance exhaust systems. His beginnings were humble \u2013 he was just a teenager whose only aspiration was to tweak more power out of his 1956 Vespa. Kenny\u2019s experience with building pipes started with building his own chopper, but when his friends saw how well that turned out, they asked him to build pipes for their bikes, too. It wasn\u2019t long before he was building exhausts for many bikes in the area and earned his nickname the \u201cGodfather of Pipes.\u201d\nFor many years, riding was the most important thing to Kenny \u2013 whether or not he had a job was less important than where his next ride would take him. He\u2019d even go so far as to call in to work with \u201cMotorcycle Fever,\u201d telling his employer he\u2019d be better by tomorrow.\nBy the late 80\u2019s Kenny\u2019s annual trips to Sturgis got him interested in getting back into the motorcycle industry. Since pipes were a natural for him he came up with several new innovative designs. In 1988 Kenny bought some old worn-out tubing equipment out of the backdoor of a place that was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy for pennies on the dollar and Samson was born. Kenny started to accumulate quite a collection of old, unique, and obscure motorcycles. This collection of old bikes became a false feather in Kenny\u2019s hat. He had the bikes in his personal bike room at his manufacturing plant, but they were rarely shared. When the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum opened so did the doors of opportunity to share some old iron.\nKenny has been and continues to be one of the largest contributors of motorcycles to the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum & Hall of Fame. Kenny\u2019s devotion to the motorcycle community and particularly to the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum will never waver. It\u2019s a life-long passion which will never die.\nRead about it on the Hall of Fame website.",

        "raw_content": "Beautiful People, Vol. 11: 2016 Writerly Goals and Resolutions\nBeautiful People is a monthly blog meme hosted by Cait @ Paper Fury and Sky @ Further Up and Further In. Every month they pose 10 questions for writers to answer about their writing and give readers the opportunity to learn more about the writer\u2019s characters.\nThis month\u2019s Beautiful People isn\u2019t so much about our stories or characters. Instead, it\u2019s about the writers themselves! We\u2019ve been asked to share our writing-related goals and resolutions for 2016. I sort of did this already for my Happy New Year post. However, the following questionnaire will reveal more details for those plans, as well as other insights such as beta readers and critique partners, which character I\u2019d like to get to know better, and which craft book I want to read this year. So, let\u2019s get to it! \ud83d\ude42\n1. What were your writing achievements last year?\nFinishing the first draft of The Keeper\u2019s Curse was without a doubt the BIG writing highlight for me in 2015. Finally coming up with its title was a welcome relief, too. I had spent 2 years referring to the poor thing as The Book, The WIP, or Eva\u2019s Story because I couldn\u2019t think anything better that reflected the story well enough.\nAlso, this isn\u2019t exactly a writing achievement, but I attended two writing conferences (Writer\u2019s Digest Conference and The Muse & The Marketplace) in 2015. Both events allowed me to learn more about the business side of writing and meet other people who share my passions and whom I can cheer on as they work on achieving their own writing dreams. Not to mention they were so much fun!\n2. Tell us about your top-priority writing project(s) for 2016.\nHmmmm, gee, I wonder what that might be\u2026 TKC? \ud83d\ude09 Right now, Draft #2 is almost 80% complete \u2013 but it still needs more work before I feel comfortable letting anybody else read it. So, these priorities will require more revising than actual writing, but here\u2019s what I have planned for the WIP this year:\nFinish Draft #2: This should happen during the first quarter of 2016. I\u2019ll reveal my target completion date in the next edition of Chronicling The Craft, which should be out next week.\nWork on Draft #3: Once Draft #2 is done, I\u2019ll take about 2 weeks off to prepare my \u201cgame plan\u201d for Draft #3. Since Draft #2 took half as long as Draft #1 did (1 year as opposed to 2 years, 2 months), I\u2019m hoping Draft #3 will take even less time. No deadline at the moment; I\u2019ll wait until I\u2019m closer to finishing this stage before doing that.\nGive TKC to Beta-Readers & Critique Partners: This may be a stretch, but it\u2019s the next logical step after Draft #3. My thinking right now is this won\u2019t happen until the beginning of 2017, at the earliest. Even if it\u2019s ready by the end of 2016, I\u2019d hesitate to ask people to read it over the holidays, since it\u2019s such a busy time for everyone.\n3. List five (5) areas you\u2019d like to work the hardest to improve this year.\nI could only think of two areas. Both are more \u201cwriter\u2019s life\u201d related than craft-related (though I\u2019m sure I need help with some craft areas, too), but they\u2019re the first ones I thought of and the most sensible ones to tackle this year:\nBeing Less Hard on Myself and Accepting My Process: Originally I was going to call this item \u201cBecoming a Smarter Writer.\u201d The problem is, I already do everything in my power to make my process as efficient as possible. Yet, despite blocking out distractions and using note-taking between sessions and mood-enhancing music to \u201cget in the flow,\u201d I\u2019ve learned that I\u2019m simply not a fast writer. I still beat myself up (figuratively speaking) over it from time to time \u2013 and I know I shouldn\u2019t. So, I need to accept the kind of writer I am. I\u2019m self-motivated, passionate, and persistent \u2013 and right now, that matters more than writing 1,000 words per hour.\nStarting My Writing / Revising Earlier on the Weekends: When you get up at 5:00 AM on weekdays for work, it\u2019s so, SO tempting to stay in bed later on weekends. (If you\u2019re wondering, 8:00 or 9:00 AM is late for me.) This year, I\u2019m going to get up at 7:00 AM on Saturdays, Sundays, and other days I don\u2019t work. That way, I can squeeze in an extra hour or two of novel work while still giving myself a reprieve from super-early mornings. The easiest way to achieve this? Set my cell phone alarm, and put said phone on the other side of the room \u2013 which will force me to physically get out of bed to turn the noisy bugger off. \ud83d\ude09\n4. Are you participating in any writing challenges?\nNo. I\u2019m focusing only on personal blogging and novel-writing goals. That\u2019s plenty for me right now.\n5. What\u2019s your critique partner / beta reader situation like? Do you have plans to expand this year?\nWell, several people have already told me they\u2019d be interested in beta-reading / critiquing TKC once it\u2019s ready. But since the manuscript isn\u2019t actually ready, I can\u2019t say I have anyone committed to it yet. That said, I\u2019ve beta-read for other writers in the past (once for a first chapter, once for the first 3 chapters, and twice for entire manuscripts), and three of them have already volunteered to the return the favor.\nI should also mention that I\u2019d be happy to beta-read or critique anyone\u2019s manuscript in the future. Fantasy is my preferred genre, but I also enjoy other types of speculative fiction (science fiction, dystopian, steampunk, etc.) as well as historical fiction. Be warned, though: I\u2019m SLOW. (*lol*) I\u2019m not a fast reader, and my comments tend to be quite in-depth. However, I try to be honest, fair, and constructive in my feedback. If you don\u2019t mind that kind of beta-reader, drop me an email at my Contact page and I\u2019ll let you know if your project might work with my schedule.\n6. Do you have plans to read any writing-related books this year? Or are there specific books you want to read for research?\nWonderbook! I bought it last year at Writer\u2019s Digest Conference, and it\u2019s the one writing-craft book I really want to read this year. Not to mention it\u2019s such a shiny, pretty, colorful thing \u2013 because it\u2019s not just a speculative fiction craft book. It\u2019s a speculative fiction craft book FULL of pictures and diagrams. Oh, and essays from writers like Neil Gaiman, Ursula K. Le Guin, Lev Grossman, George R.R. Martin\u2026\nYup. I need to read Wonderbook this year. \ud83d\ude00\n7. Pick one character you want to get to know better. How are you going to achieve this?\nB-b-b-b-but I want to get to know all of my characters better!\nOK, if I had to pick one character, it would be Nomaro, one of two protagonists for a novella I\u2019m planning to start once TKC is with beta readers. I\u2019d do this by completing a character profile on him (I do one for each of my characters, covering physical and basic characteristics, personality traits and flaws, personal history, motivations, fears, etc.), and by doing at least one Beautiful People entry for him.\nApart from Nomaro, I\u2019d also like to do Beautiful People entries this year for three characters in TKC whom I haven\u2019t covered yet: Vandar and Doni (the last two of Eva\u2019s fellow Councilors); and Aurek\u2019s brother Drasten, who was featured in last year\u2019s Siblings Edition of Beautiful People but deserves a solo post at some point.\n8. Do you plan to edit or query? What\u2019s your plan of attack?\nOh yes, there will be all kinds of editing in 2016. \ud83d\ude09 I already have a plan of attack in mind for Draft #3, but I\u2019ll wait to share that in an upcoming edition of Chronicling The Craft. As for querying, it\u2019s much too soon to think about that. The earliest it will happen at this rate is 2017.\n9. Toni Morrison once said, \u201cIf there\u2019s a book that you want to read, but it hasn\u2019t been written yet, then you must write it.\u201d What are the books that you want to see more of, and what \u201choles\u201d do you think need filling in the literary world?\nI\u2019d like to see more YA fantasies that focus on non-romantic relationships. There\u2019s been talk in the blogosphere about more friendships between female protagonists in this genre, and I support that idea wholeheartedly. (In fact, I\u2019m reading one such book right now, Truthwith by Susan Dennard.) But I\u2019d be just as happy to see more stories about siblings, parents and children, relatives, male and female-male friendships, etc. I\u2019ve got a couple story ideas along those lines, but they\u2019ll have to simmer on the backburner until time and clarity allow for them to \u201cfully cook,\u201d if you know what I mean. \ud83d\ude09\n10. What do you hope to have achieved by the end of 2016?\nTo be as close as possible to finishing Draft #3 of TKC, if not done and ready to send it off to beta readers and critique partners. I also want to have an outline for my novella ready so I can start drafting it while I\u2019m waiting on TKC feedback.\nThat\u2019s it for this month\u2019s edition of Beautiful People. What do you think of my writing goals and resolutions for 2016? What are some of yours?\naccomplishments, beta-readers, character profiles, characters, critique partners, editing, fantasy, Jeff VanderMeer, New Year's Resolutions, Nomaro, novel writing, novellas, revising, revision process, second drafts, The Keeper's Curse, Wonderbook: The Illustrated Guide to Creating Imaginative Fiction, writing, writing goals, writing memes, writing process, YA\n\u2190 Stacking The Shelves, Vol. 21: Christmas-January Haul, Plus My Reading Plan for 2016\nOn Bowie, Rickman, and Ang\u00e9lil \u2192\n41 thoughts on \u201cBeautiful People, Vol. 11: 2016 Writerly Goals and Resolutions\u201d\nThose sound like some great resolutions! (And we\u2019ll be working on draft three at the same time, hehe.)\nI also may end up taking you up on your offer about critiquing, depending on whether or not my two possible beta-readers at the moment actually pan out.\nThanks, Shim! And yay for third drafts. \ud83d\ude09\nSounds good. Just give me a shout via my Contact page when you know for certain.\nYou have set your goals very clearly, Sara \u2013 which in my experience is crucial. When we\u2019re in the midst of goal-setting/writing down that really cool idea, etc, we can\u2019t POSSIBLY imagine we\u2019ll forget all the nuances, extra consequences and linked objectives we\u2019ll need to tackle\u2026 until we do several months down the line! And the other aspect I applaud in this set of goal, is that you\u2019re being KIND to yourself, which is great! As you say, you\u2019re already working as hard as you can. So, you don\u2019t write fast. This is also your first book and therefore a huge learning curve \u2013 as you continue in your writing career you may find you speed up\u2026 or you may not. But at the end of the day, it has to be about the QUALITY. All the best with your editing and as you\u2019ve mentioned \u2013 I\u2019m more than happy to be a beta-reader when the time comes:).\nThank you, Sarah! I think the key this year is simply being reasonable with my goals. Last year I thought I\u2019d plow through Draft #2 of TKC in a couple months. That was\u2026 overly ambitious, to say the least.\nAnd the kindness bit\u2026 I think we could all be kinder to ourselves, and sometimes it starts by saying, \u201cIt\u2019s OK if I\u2019m not [fill in the blank]\u201d and accepting the fact. It\u2019s a lot harder than we think, to make those kinds of changes in our thinking\u2026 But it\u2019s a start.\nTKC is actually the second book I\u2019ve ever written. I finished my first one\u2026 9 years ago? (Jeez, that seems so long ago now\u2026) And I managed to get through a second draft before trunking it during the third. I basically lost the passion for it, and it was hard to manage it with moving and other life changes that were going on\u2026 But it also had a lot of issues that I was trying to ignore. I\u2019ve learned a lot about novel-writing since then, though, and I think TKC is a much stronger story than the previous one.\nYou were one of the writers / readers I was hinting at in #5. So of course, you\u2019re on my list, Sarah, and I\u2019ll be thrilled to have you read TKC when the time (finally) comes. \ud83d\ude42\nWow!! 4am?!\nFor me, 7am is too early but recently, I\u2019ve been getting up at that time on the weekends to write.\nDid I say 4 a.m.?? That\u2026 wasn\u2019t right.\n*checks her article*\nNo, everything seems right. I get up at 5:oo a.m. for work on the weekdays, and working on a 7:oo a.m. wake-up time for the weekends. Let me know if you did in fact see a 4 a.m., though.\nWhoops! Sorry about that. That\u2019s my mistake. I meant 5.\nThat\u2019s OK. \ud83d\ude09 But I agree that it\u2019s darn early\u2026 The things you have to do to beat the worst of local commuter traffic!\nVictoria NightSky\nI definitely agree with non-romantic relationships. I\u2019m rather annoyed with culture\u2019s obsession with having romance in every single story, and I think there need to be more strong platonic relationships between guys and girls in literature. And, of course, more girl friendships in speculative fiction.\nIt was great to read about your plans for this year! I hope you achieve it all and much more, and I\u2019ll be praying for you. =)\nAnd I did this month\u2019s Beautiful People, if you want to check it out: https://victoriam00.wordpress.com/2016/01/14/beautiful-people-january/\nYou\u2019re actually next on my list for responding to BP posts \u2013 so I\u2019ll be over there in a bit! \ud83d\ude09\nI don\u2019t romance at all. It\u2019s just that it\u2019s nice to see a change once in a while. Though I\u2019m not a fan of love triangles, so\u2026 yeah. You won\u2019t ever see me write about those!\nRebekah @ Wordsmithing and Worldbuilding\nEveryone\u2019s answers to #9 have had me nodding along saying \u201cYES!\u201d And whatever happened to friendships?? I don\u2019t like the disturbing trend in books where male-female friendships develop into a love triangle (once Danger, or Chance, or whatever bad boy/girl comes along). I have A LOT of guy friends (and I did as a teenager too, btw), and to date, I have fallen in love with, exactly none of them. Zero. So I know it works. And I love friendship stories in general (look at Frodo and Sam in LOTR). I want some more epic female friendships (these actually used to be pretty common in novels). I\u2019m sure these books are out there somewhere, they are just harder to find!\n(Sheesh, I\u2019m becoming ranty over this question on absolutely everyone\u2019s blog)\nAll that aside, it looks like you are not only organized, but you have a lot of great writing goals (plausible ones at that). I\u2019m always excited to read more about TKC (and I share your delight at finding the perfect name). You\u2019ve probably noted my enthusiasm for anything fairy-related by now!\nGood luck \u2013 and Happy Writing!\nActually, I was going to add \u201cNO MORE LOVE TRIANGLES IN YA, PLEASE!\u201d *lol* I\u2019m not a fan of them, either; they\u2019re just not realistic. But I decided not to mention it because I wanted to stay positive. \ud83d\ude09\nI\u2019d actually like to a 5 on the 5th or #5onFri (the latter for DIY MFA) on female friendships in speculative fiction (for all ages, not just YA). I just need to check and see if I\u2019ve actually read five such books \u2013 and if not, that will have to wait for a bit.\nThank you! I don\u2019t know if I actually feel organized, if you know what I mean, but having a plan always helps. And honestly, I would be thrilled if you wanted to beta-read TKC when it\u2019s ready. From reading your book reviews, BP posts, and responses to my BP posts, you seem to be the kind of reader who looks at things with a constructive, discerning eye \u2013 and I know that\u2019s what I\u2019ll need. But it\u2019s totally up to you. (I\u2019d be happy to beta-read TLCS when it\u2019s ready, too, btw.)\nLove triangles make me feel like a dragon on a rampage. (With VERY FEW exceptions). And while I admire your intentions to stay positive, my inner rampaging dragon is not always shut down by tea and yoga (though there seem to be a few magical songs that can distract it)\nI am totally on board for beta reading TKC!!! (Eventually, no rush \u2013 because I totally understand) I honestly have more experience beta reading than having my stuff read. I\u2019m not the fastest reader, but I put a lot of time and thought into honest reactions/feedback. And despite my rantyness^^, I\u2019m normally a calm, harmless sort. I swear.\nLikewise for TLCS \u2013 it needs a lot of work (I need to read it through and see if it makes sense before I even think of editing it, so we\u2019re really early on here). But I will eventually want someone other than me to read it. Preferably BEFORE I get to the stage where I decide it\u2019s the worst book ever written, lol! Thanks for even being willing \ud83d\ude42 I really appreciate everyone\u2019s kindness and honesty when I mention the subject.\nXD You mean like Smaug rage-flying through Erebor??? XD\nYay! (I think we discussed the beta-reading thing on your blog, too, but YAY again!) And don\u2019t worry about your beta-reading \u201cspeed.\u201d The amount of feedback is what matters more to me. Actually, it sounds like we might have very similar beta-reading / critiquing styles\u2026\nHey, I\u2019m always happy to help my writing pals make their stories the best they can possibly be. Plus, TLCS sounds like something I would read while being totally unique from anything else I\u2019ve ever heard of. I love having my mind blown by someone else\u2019s imagination. \ud83d\ude00\nExactly. I was actually picturing that when I typed it. Smaug in Erebor = me on love triangles. So you can imagine how impressed I am by the few books/novelists who\u2019ve slipped one past me (like a hobbit with a ring)\nAwesome goals!! And yes I completely agree that there\u2019s way too much romance in YA books (not that romance is a bad thing, but I feel that many books focus too much on it). And love triangles are starting to become a pet peeve of mine. But good luck with all your goals!\nThanks, Grace! \ud83d\ude42\nIt never ceases to amaze me how many readers seem tired of love triangles, yet those relationships keep popping up in YA fantasy and other YA genres. *lol* *shakes her head* I wonder why that is\u2026\nDeborah O'Carroll\nAwesome post! Sounds like you have some great goals this year\u2026 Best of luck on achieving them! \ud83d\ude42\nI also agree on the putting the alarm on the other side of the room thing. XD I don\u2019t actually have a job at the moment, but I do love my sleep, and it\u2019s SO. HARD. for me to get up earlier. So it\u2019s a trick I use often when I actually need to get up early. \ud83d\ude1b\nBeing hard on myself about my writing is something I do too, so I feel you on that one! It\u2019s okay to be slow, yes! I hope you can embrace your own unique approach to writing. ^_^\nAh, so the \u201calarm clock / phone on the other side of the room\u201d helps you, too? Good. I\u2019ll definitely have to use it then.\nI will add to everyone\u2019s comments on #9: \u201cPlease, no more YA love triangles!\u201d I don\u2019t mind some romance, as long as it doesn\u2019t involve triangles, but I prefer friendships. I\u2019ll have to do this month\u2019s BP post soon, too. I\u2019ve fallen behind with so many things these past few weeks, but I\u2019d like to catch up now.\nI\u2019m sure you know this already, but I\u2019d be more than happy to be a beta reader for TKC. \ud83d\ude42\n*lol* I don\u2019t mind romances, either, especially if they\u2019re convincing and don\u2019t overshadow the protagonist\u2019s relationships with other characters. But\u2026 love triangles\u2026 they\u2019re just not realistic!\nI\u2019ll keep an eye out for your BP post. \ud83d\ude09 But don\u2019t feel rushed to finish it if you don\u2019t have time.\nOf course I\u2019d be happy to have you as a beta-reader for TKC! \ud83d\ude42 And I extend the same offer to you when your story is ready.\nI just realized this is the last week of January\u2013wow, time is flying! I\u2019ll have to get that BP post up this week, eep!\nThank you, Sara. I\u2019m excited for you to read it! \ud83d\ude42\nWow, Wonderbook looks awesome! Good luck with editing this next year! \ud83d\ude42\nI love how open you are with your process! It really makes me feel like I\u2019m working alongside you. I just recommended your blog to someone who was complaining about the lack of writers who make their process transparent. That\u2019s something you\u2019ve inspired me to do more of. Hey, I guess that\u2019s a goal for 2016!\nAnd PS- I hope I\u2019m one of the people on your list to return the beta-read favor! So grateful to you for doing it for me!\nOh wow, thank you, Leanne! \ud83d\ude42 The writing process feels like a natural thing to talk about, so I figure, \u201cWhy not?\u201d And I like how you\u2019ve made it a goal for 2016.\nOf course! You were one of the people I was hinting at in the beta-reader section. \ud83d\ude09 I\u2019m sorry that it won\u2019t be for a while, but you are absolutely on my list of people to read TKC when it\u2019s ready.\nAlison's Wonderland Recipes\nI love that you want to work more on accepting your writing process. It can be so tough to embrace ourselves as the writers we are, instead of as the writers we wish we were. One thing I\u2019ve had to learn to accept is that I can\u2019t sit and write for hours on end, even if I have time to do it. Instead, I write in 300-500 word spurts. If I try to write more than that without a short break, I burn out!\n\u201cIt can be so tough to embrace ourselves as the writers we are, instead of as the writers we wish we were.\u201d\nAbsolutely! And it\u2019s tough to reconcile those differences sometimes. But the more we fight our process, the less productive and more stressed-out we\u2019ll be \u2013 and it\u2019s not worth it.\nI actually love long marathon sessions. *lol* I do take breaks along the way, for lunch, brewing more tea, etc. Of course, sometimes I have a problem with ending the writing / revising session altogether. For example, I\u2019ll say that I need to stop at 6 pm to cook dinner\u2026 but then 6 pm comes around, and I\u2019m so motivated to finish a scene that I push myself onward\u2026 and when I actually finish, it\u2019s almost 8 pm. XD\nActually, that\u2019s probably something I should have listed under \u201cthings to work on\u201d: ending my writing sessions when I say I\u2019m going to, so I don\u2019t screw up my schedule for the rest of the evening. :S\nOh, these sound like fantastic goals! You are so dedicated to your writing. To the point of getting up early to keep at it. (I seriously fail at that one.)\nAnd you went to two writer\u2019s conferences?? Aaahhh!!! My dream right there. So excited for you!\nLooks like it\u2019s going to be a great writing year. I hope everything turns out wonderfully for you! ^_^\n*lol* Yes, well, I\u2019m sort of struggling with the \u201cgetting up early\u201d bit still. That alarm clock may wake ME up, but not my motivation to get out of bed just yet. XD\nYes! Two conferences last year. \ud83d\ude00 I\u2019m returning to one of them this summer, and might do another one\u2026 It depends on how the rest of 2016 shapes up, so we\u2019ll see.\nThank you, Christine! Best of luck to you, too. \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019m so glad you\u2019ve made so much progress in TKC! I hope you reach your goal and finish it this year! Will this be your first finished craft? Everyone has their own process and as long as you can get a book finished that\u2019s what matters. Best wishes. ^ ^\nThanks, Tori! \ud83d\ude42\nI\u2019ve actually finished a book before this one, and made it as far as the middle of Draft #3. But then I had to put it aside because of moving to my condo, and then finishing up a great-great-aunt\u2019s life story before she passed away (i.e., I interviewed her about her life and wrote it in a sort of bookish format, then printed copies of it for her family). When I went back to the novel, I decided to trunk it because I\u2019d lost the passion for it.\nOhhhhh, the apocalypse would have to happen in order for me to stop working on TKC now. \ud83d\ude09\nOhhhhh I see. Just curious. ^ ^\nPingback: Time Flies!: January 2016 | Sara Letourneau's Official Website & Blog\nImogen Elvis\nWonderbook looks amazing! A writing book with essays by famous authors AND pictures and diagrams? All I can say is, I really need to get my hands on a copy of this book pronto. Also, I love your bookish goals. It sounds like you have a real drive to get The Keeper\u2019s Curse finished. Good luck with all your revisions! Most of my bookish goals revolve around revisions this year as well.\nThanks, Imogen! Yes, TKC is my priority. It\u2019s hard for me to work on multiple stories at one time for various reasons. That said, I really love this story, and I want to make it as strong as it can be, so it\u2019s getting as much of my attention as possible until I say it\u2019s \u201cdone.\u201d\nOh yes. That\u2019s exactly what Wonderbook is. The fact that it focuses solely on speculative fiction is also a huge plus. \ud83d\ude09\nThanks for stopping by! Good luck again on your writing and revision goals for 2016.\nSounds like you\u2019ve got some good goals and a good idea of what you\u2019re doing this year. \ud83d\ude42 I wish you luck with your revisions.\nThanks, Phoenix! I\u2019m closing in on the last couple chapters, so things are getting really exciting now! \ud83d\ude00\n2017\u2026 *thinks* Okay. I can wait patiently. ^_^\nAnd I heartily agree with what you said about more FRIENDSHIPS in YA fantasy! Sometimes romance feels trite and forced. EVERY story does NOT need to have a romance. (Or at least, it doesn\u2019t need to center around romance.)\nI mean, romance is nice, but I\u2019d like to see a bit more open-mindedness with character relationships. Especially between guys and gals. Everyone does not have to be \u201cshipped.\u201d That doesn\u2019t even reflect real life! We have normal, platonic relationships with people of the opposite sex all the time. Why can\u2019t we see that more in fiction?\nOr maybe I\u2019m just less romantic-at-heart than the average person, I don\u2019t know. \ud83d\ude09 But I\u2019d definitely love to see more fictional friendships.\n^^ Yes to everything you just said about fictional friendships. I don\u2019t mind romances, either \u2013 especially when they\u2019re well done. But more variety in relationships would be very welcome. \ud83d\ude09\nAbout 2017\u2026 yeah, well\u2026 It\u2019s hard when you\u2019re not a fast writer, and when you also don\u2019t have a lot of writing time due to your work schedule and other commitments. I have to make do with the time I have. But when I do, all my focus goes straight to the story. \ud83d\ude09",

        "raw_content": "Top Travel Locations \u2013 International Trips\nThe City of Light draws millions of visitors every year with its unforgettable overall environment. River Seine rambles gently through the city, alongside stately museums, aged churches, and blocks of Rococo- and Neoclassic-design architecture. Cascading trees and glowing street lamps further enhance the cobbled walks and graceful bridges in impossibly chic Paris. Containing world-class museums, fashion, cuisine and an atmosphere all its own, Paris is also a city recalled by so many historical authors and artists. Visit the beloved Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay, shop the biggest designers on the Champs \u00c9lys\u00e9es or hit the boutiques in Le Marais, take in the view atop the Eiffel Tower, or even plan a day trip to Versailles Palace. But don\u2019t miss out on the simple pleasure of meandering the marvelous districts, or snacking on street crepes either.\nWith over 4 million visitors every year, most of them still spend most of their time at Old Faithful. Yellowstone\u2019s 2.2 million acres range from northwest Wyoming into Idaho and Montana. Several days are needed to see even a decent amount of the park, like Yellowstone Lake and Mammoth Hot Springs. The trails are amazing too, like the hot springs of the West Thumb Geyser Basin and the untamed wildlife dotting the Lewis River Channel and Dogshead Loop. With many trails and wildlife-watching opportunities: more than one trip is always possible.\nRome, the city of seven hills, enjoyed a mythic beginning. Romulus and Remus \u2013 twin brothers who were nursed by a she-wolf and fathered by a war god \u2013 reportedly founded the Eternal City. And although historians are a little skeptical about this epic entry into the world, most travelers are absolutely certain that there is something magical about Rome. Whether it\u2019s the mystery of nearby Vatican City or the ghosts of the Colosseum, an afternoon caff\u00e8 on Piazza Navona or a piled-high plate of pasta at a trattoria, Roma is sure to enchant.\nItaly\u2019s capital city, Rome is also known for a history that dates back to the eras of Octavian, Julius Caesar, and Hadrian, among others. Left behind are structures like the Pantheon, the Roman Forum and dozens of churches, among other historical gems. Art enthusiasts will relish the trove of art housed at the Vatican Museums, and foodies will enjoy the splendid Italian fare, not to mention the gelato. And though its momentous past is the focus for many vacationers, Rome is also a fast-paced, modern and relevant city, with gleaming designer storefronts, sleek hotels, and cutting-edge restaurants.\nWith miles of shoreline, dozens of resorts, and cuisine to die for \u2013 Tahiti has all the makings of a honeymoon destination. Despite its idyllic reputation and accessibility, Tahiti is more of an off-the-beaten-path stop than a romantic getaway. However, that doesn\u2019t mean Tahiti deserves to be ignored. Leafy forests sit beside sandy shores, French cr\u00eapes are served alongside Tahitian raw fish. If there ever was a place that embodies the beautiful duality of the French Polynesian archipelago, it\u2019s Tahiti. Here, the quirky, often chaotic atmosphere of the island\u2019s capital, Papeete, rubs elbows with uncorrupted natural beauty. In fact, Tahiti \u2013 the largest of French Polynesia\u2019s 118 islands \u2013 is often referred to as two separate islands despite them being joined by a tiny land bridge. Tahiti Nui is the larger, northern section where Papeete can be found. Tahiti Iti (the smaller half) is less accessible, although many visitors make the trek here for a taste of seclusion. Just note that spending a week on either part of Tahiti will cost you quite a chunk of change. But travelers agree that the warm waters, the lush jungles, and the luxurious resorts are worth the splurge.\nThe English writer Samuel Johnson famously said, \u201cYou find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.\u201d More than two centuries have passed since Johnson\u2019s era, but his words still ring true. Life in London is nothing short of invigorating, and travelers find that one visit isn\u2019t enough to experience everything this two-millennia-old city has to offer. Here, the antiquated clasps hands with the contemporary. You\u2019ll find the historic Tower of London and the avant-garde Tate Modern both considered must-sees. Shakespeare\u2019s sonnets are still being uttered by actors who don modern garb. Londoners most certainly still respect the royals, but they also jam to the likes of Arctic Monkeys and Adele. And while they still praise the power of tea, they now make room for some Starbucks here and there and pressed juice too. A current leader in everything from politics and banking to fashion and music, London\u2019s culture compass is always attuned to what\u2019s next.\n\u201cGrand\u201d doesn\u2019t begin to do this canyon justice. Measuring approximately 277 river miles in length, up to 18 miles in width and a mile deep, this massive chasm in northern Arizona is truly a natural wonder. For six million years, the Grand Canyon has expanded with the help of the mighty Colorado River, and for centuries, people from all over the globe have traveled to gaze out over its red and orange grandeur. Managed by the National Park Service and officially designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Grand Canyon leaves its approximately 6 million visitors per year awestruck. But if you\u2019re seeking a secluded escape to Mother Nature, you should be prepared: The Grand Canyon can be very crowded. The South Rim \u2013 home to the Grand Canyon Village and the well-worn Bright Angel Trail \u2013 is particularly popular for sightseers and hikers. It is on this side that you\u2019ll find the most amenities. For a break from the crowds, head to the North Rim. This is the place for backwoods camping and hardcore hiking.\nDubai is similar to Las Vegas with a love for the fantastical, with skylines that shine like beacons against barren desert backdrops. People from all over the world flock to these shimmering oases with the same goal: to play hard. But as a vacation spot, Dubai easily beats Vegas with its gorgeous cream-colored Persian Gulf shoreline, international culinary scene, and larger-than-life attractions. The city\u2019s still growing with plans for something bigger and better. It was even estimated that a quarter of the world\u2019s construction cranes could be found here. That could hint at unlimited growth.\nDubai is home to the world\u2019s tallest tower, one of the world\u2019s largest shopping malls, and one of the world\u2019s largest man-made marinas. Traditional wooden boats float past motorboats on Dubai Creek, the natural sands of Jumeirah Beach fringe the carefully sculpted Palm Islands, and the bustling Gold and Spice Souks (marketplaces) thrive amid the larger-than-life Dubai Mall. Despite constantly looking to the future, this city isn\u2019t quick to let go of its past. It\u2019s this dynamic that not only put Dubai on the tourist map but will also keep it there.\nCool, cosmopolitan, crowded, and constantly evolving, NYC has iconic landmarks and towering skyscrapers, you\u2019ll experience a vibrant culture permeating each of the city\u2019s distinctive neighborhoods and boroughs. Follow trendsetters to the East Village and Brooklyn to check out indie boutiques, iconic bakeries, and trendy coffee shops. Afterward, peruse the racks of the sleek shops lining Fifth Avenue, admire the cutting-edge art collections at the MoMA and the Met, catch a memorable show on Broadway or sit down for a meal at the latest restaurant. The American forefront of food, fashion, and the arts \u2013 NYC requires stamina. But don\u2019t let the Big Apple\u2019s frenetic sights and sounds intimidate you from soaking up its grandeur. Constantly growing, wander through the concrete jungle and you\u2019ll discover roaring taxis zipping down bustling blocks, fast-paced pedestrians strolling past on their way to marquee galleries and trendy cocktail bars, as it will never be the same again. Times Square\u2019s neon lights flickering at all hours.\nBarcelona contains both the authentically historic and the wildly bizarre. From the scenic trails of the colorful Park G\u00fcell to the romantic narrow alleys of Barri G\u00f2tic; from the beachside nightclubs to the city\u2019s dozens of sacred churches and architectural marvels, this city by the sea seems to attract all types: the adventurer, the couple, the partier, the culture lover with an almost overwhelming variety of things to do. You could stay for a few days, but chances are you\u2019ll need a whole week to explore. In Barcelona, even the beach is bustling, but it\u2019s really the cosmopolitan city that gets all the attention. Much of the activity revolves around Las Ramblas, a series of narrow streets and alleys packed with restaurants, nightclubs, and a vibrant pedestrian market. But you should also take a tour of Antoni Gaud\u00ed\u2019s masterpieces; Gaud\u00ed is responsible for sites like Casa Mil\u00e0, Casa Batll\u00f3, and La Sagrada Familia. You also shouldn\u2019t miss out on the eclectic shopping scene and the region\u2019s exquisite food and wine.\nOne of California\u2019s most formidable natural landscapes, Yosemite National Park features nearly 1,200 square miles of sheer awe: towering waterfalls, millennia-old Sequoia trees, striking, daunting cliff faces and some of the most unique rock formations in the United States. But despite its enormous size, most of the tourist activity takes place within the 8-square-mile area of Yosemite Valley. Here you\u2019ll find the park\u2019s most famous landmarks \u2013 Half Dome and El Capitan \u2013 as well as excellent hiking trails through the natural monuments. Even inexperienced hikers can enjoy Yosemite: Guided tours and climbing lessons are available from local adventure outfitters. Just don\u2019t expect to experience it by yourself. Like so many other American tourist destinations, crowds are the biggest obstacles to an enjoyable Yosemite vacation \u2013 approximately 4 million people visit each year. But if you go at the right time, Mother Nature\u2019s wonders will reveal themselves to you in a miraculous and serene way.\nPrevious Previous post: Many Options and Benefits of Cannabidiol\nNext Next post: RV Traveling and Camping",

        "raw_content": "Archiving Culture: American Folklore Archives in Theory and Practice\nKolovos, Andrew Arthur\nAdvisor: Schrempp, Gregory\nSmith, Moira\nKeywords: Archives; Ethnography; Ethnology; Folklife; Public Folklore; United States; Folklore; Library Science\nRights: Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)\nAmerican folklorists have long preserved their research materials in repositories dedicated to this purpose. The motivations for saving these items and the methods of doing so have changed over time, but the practice of preserving research materials has persisted as a central aspect of folkloristics into the present--one that distinguishes it from other ethnographic disciplines such as anthropology. Although these collections go by many names--including folk archives, folklife archives, and ethnographic archives--for the sake of this dissertation I label these collections categorically as folklore archives. Issues related to intellectual property rights and intangible cultural heritage, while important to consider, are beyond the scope of this project. Despite the ubiquity of folklore archives in the discipline, they are an understudied aspect of historical and contemporary practice in folkloristics. This dissertation examines the role of folklore archives in the field, the nature of these collections, and the growing influence on them from theories and practices originating in the fields of library science and archival management. Folklore archives were at one time a distinct product of the discipline of folkloristics, reflecting disciplinary practice and responding to disciplinary need. As theoretical and methodological approaches within the field changed, the utility of these old archival forms diminished dramatically. Rather than abandoning the creation of archives all together, folklorists began to modify archival practice to suit changing needs. Of particular significance is the impact of the requirements of public folklore work on folklore archives, including the reuse and repurposing of archival materials in publications, exhibitions and public events, as well as an increased emphasis on collaborative engagement with communities of origin. Folklore archives in the present are increasingly shaped by the theories and methods of professionally trained archivists. Folklore archives are developing into a hybrid form that draws on both the legacy of archiving in folkloristics and aspects of the well-developed body of theory that informs the work of professional archivists outside of folklore.\nThesis (Ph.D.) - Indiana University, Folklore and Ethnomusicology, 2010\nName: Kolovos_indiana_0 ...\nFolklore Dissertations and Theses [22]",

        "title": "Profile: Manav Sadhna | School Re-formed",
        "raw_content": "Profile: Manav Sadhna\nThursday, January, 31, 13 \u00a7 4 Comments\nFrom the heart in India: Service, learning and love.\nThe Place: Manav Sadhna, located in Ahmadabad. A city of 5.5 million people in the state of Gujarat, western India.\nHistory: Manav Sadhna is one of several learning and service organizations clustered around the Sabarmati Ashram, where Gandhi and his wife and supporters lived from 1918 \u2013 1930, and continued many of his \u201cexperiments in truth\u201d. Manav Sadhna was created in 1993 by three friends working to embrace Gandhi\u2019s values and way of life.\nThe Skinny: Manav Sadhna offers an example of an organization in which learning goes hand-in-hand with living, with improving one\u2019s quality of life and understanding of the world. Nearly 10,000 people are touched by this organization in the realms of sanitation, health care, education, and economic livelihoods, including scores of Westerners who come to learn about themselves and the world through volunteering.\nWhat matters: Moving beyond the rational mind: learning, living and serving with love, compassion, and faith.\nMore info: There\u2019s several links within the text, but you can check out the main Manav Sadhna website at www.manavsadhna.org/, and the website for Gandhi\u2019s ashram at http://www.gandhiashram.org.in/.\nMany people argue that the defining characteristic of humans is our ability to reason. But what if the most important truths\u2014those that lead to peace, happiness, unity, and sustainability\u2014do not derive from human rationality? What if paying more attention to our innate senses and heart, and less attention to rational inquiry, is what\u2019s needed for living in greater harmony?\nIn my travels here in India, I just spent a week visiting an organization called Manav Sadhna, a lynchpin for a number of innovative, service-oriented organizations and individuals who seek to act from the heart, striving to attain a level of being in which \u201cdoing\u201d flows naturally from compassion and love, rather than human rationality.\nIt is no coincidence that Manav Sadhna and this community of organizations sprung up in buildings adjoining the Sabarmati Ashram, in the city of Ahmadabad. This ashram was founded by one of the modern world\u2019s most famous pioneers of truth and peace, Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhi, his family, and supporters lived at the ashram from 1918-1930, during a time when he was defining and testing some of the precepts that supported his subsequent, world-changing actions of non-violence. His \u201cexperiments in truth,\u201d as he called them, explored boundaries of love, non-violence, restraint, and learning.\nOver time, the Sabarmati Ashram has been a lightning rod for service-oriented organizations. One of the most influential, the Sanitation Institute (Safai Vidyalaya), was founded in 1963, with the mission of modernizing sanitation practices, and thereby alleviating the suffering of a caste of Indians who had for generations been relegated the unhealthy and undignified task of cleaning out dry latrines by hand. In 1964, a man named Ishwar Patel became the head of this Institute, and over the course of his subsequent 40 years of service, dedicated his life to improving sanitation and livelihoods for some of the most underprivileged communities.\nIshwar\u2019s son, Jayesh, and his wife Anar, were living in London when they decided to come back to India and find their heart\u2019s work, through service, in the early 1990\u2019s. Together with another man named Viren Joshi, they began spending time with children from the dense slum across the street from the Sabarmati Ashram. They made sure the children had a good meal once a week, and shared with them the importance of hygiene and sanitation. While they probably weren\u2019t sure what they were creating, they were very clear on their values: to serve others with love and compassion.\nToday, those small acts of love and service have grown into Manav Sadhna, a formal non-profit which hosts a heart-moving aggregation of programs, projects, and personal transformation. Their work now touches over 9,000 women and children, with more than 300 permanent staff, and a steady stream of volunteers, working in fields of education, sanitation, health care, and economic livelihoods.\nWhat struck me as much as the impactful and varied work, was that their approach flies in the face of the cardinal rules of most successful social entrepreneurs and businessmen: be goal oriented, plan, and leverage limited resources. In fact, Viren told me that they don\u2019t do dedicated fundraising from large donors, they have limited capabilities in the realm of accounting, and they do little long-range planning. He said that the money just shows up, and they\u2019ve never come to the point where they couldn\u2019t pay a salary.\nNone of the three co-founders has ever received a salary from Manav Sadhna, there are few titles, and no centralized offices. These facets all support one of Jayesh\u2019s favorite slogans: \u201cBe a ladder, not a leader\u201d.\nIndeed, Jayesh and the people who work with him are examples of embodied compassion and generosity. In a conversation several months ago, Jayesh explained to a group of listeners that \u201cEvery time we love, we receive. Love is my spiritual practice. If you love all, you can effortlessly serve all. I try to practice love in every moment. I try to love myself first and then I try to love everyone I meet.\u201d\nImpressed as I was by the Gandhian values of this organization, I did not anticipate the inspiring and vibrant project infrastructure that I would come across in the slums and other parts of the city, especially considering its lack of sophisticated accounting or dedicated fundraisers . Money flows in from private supporters, government, grants, and all of their projects have a lot of community support. In fact, their community work has been so successful that in several areas, the government has placed all education and community facilities in the hands of Manav Sadhna.\nWe were given a tour of several of these facilities by a young man, who, only a decade earlier, had been living on the streets, as a young child. He\u2019d caught the eye of Viren, Jayesh, Anar and others, and was welcomed in to the Manav Sadhna family, like so many other struggling children. At the age of fifteen, he was inspired to return to school. He went on to college and a graduate program, and is now the volunteer coordinator for Manav Sadhna. His inspirational story is not uncommon: many of the children touched by Manav Sadhna programs return to serve within the organization.\nRamapir No Tekra Community Center (Photo credit: http://www.d-impact.org/projects/proj_earn.php)\nOne of the centers to which he took us is the Ramapir No Tekra Community Center. It was finished in 2004, built with recycled materials, and designed by some of the city\u2019s most creative architects. The castle-like structure sits smack within the local slum, offering dental care, a library, value-based classes, theater, and computer training to some 500 women and children every day.\nAround the corner from this community center was a meek but tidy one-room class and adjoining living quarters. We were greeted by a beaming elderly woman who clearly enjoyed the presence of visitors and the children. I was told that she didn\u2019t have a family, and so she donated her small land plot in return for the construction of the tiny school and improved living space.\nA stone\u2019s throw away was a women\u2019s center, where we found women engaged in intricate embroidery, which would later be sold in a retail outlet for Gramshree, another non-profit that works to empower women and artisans. Women are trained in various craftworks, and can spend time together in community spaces, or at home, opening pathways for both income generation, and a new sense of self-confidence. Craftroots, a project of Gramshree, is a network that creates markets and fair prices, supporting the work of artisans throughout the state of Gujarat.\nGirls making gift bags in the Earn and Learn program, some finished products, and a Sari library at the center, where women can check out beautiful Saris for special occasions.\nIn one corner of the center several girls were making professional-looking gift bags from newspapers, part of Manav Sadhna\u2019s Earn and Learn program. Many children in the slums drop out of school to support their families (or themselves) by collecting trash, selling balloons, or cleaning. Children in the Earn and Learn program offers them an alternative: they spend four hours each day at a Manav Sadhna facility, where they attend an hour of class, receive a nutritious meal, are in a safe and loving community, and get paid more than the alternative day\u2019s labor, working for two hours making gift bags, greeting cards, and other simple crafts sold by Manav Sadhna. Gramshree and Earn and Learn, like most of Manav Sadhna\u2019s projects, have holistic approaches. Husbands are invited to visit the center and learn about their wives\u2019 work, and family visits are part of the Earn and Learn program.\nIf Manav Sadhna\u2019s lack of financial planning defies conventional wisdom, so does their treatment of volunteers. In an age of increasing volunteerism and decreasing availability of funds for non-profits, it has become common for international volunteers to pay for their stay in many organizations \u2013 especially if it is short-term. Most non-profits look for people willing to commit at least three months, preferring volunteers who can stay for more than a year. Both criteria are not unreasonable, especially in terms of project sustainability. It becomes hard when new volunteers show up without any real understanding of local culture and challenges and then try to initiate projects, only to leave when the work is beginning to gain momentum.\nManav Sadhna places none of these restrictions or expectations on its volunteers. Viren explained that many great people have tried to change the external world, but the wisest have realized that true change must begin from inside. They treated me the way they treat all volunteers: they encouraged me to just spend time learning about what they are doing, and expressed more concern about how my stay was contributing to my own personal journey than to their work-at hand. (I heard several stories of volunteers showing up for a visit, or a several month stint, and staying for years.) Though the volunteers may or may not contribute much in the moment, the inner transformation and growth that they experience will likely ripple out into unexpected change around the world. (Visit the group of inspiring service space projects in the U.S., or the urban ashram in Pune. All have deep ties to Manav Sadhna and its founders.)\nThough Manav Sadhna is the organization with which I spent the most time, there are several others clustered around the ashram, including MAM movies, which uses film as a medium for social change. Its founders, Madhu and his wife Meghna, had worked in the film industry in the U.S. and Mumbai before they moved to Ahmadabad to bring together their passions for social change and cinema. Their team of creative staff and interns has supported the production of many films documenting the work of inspiring non-profits and individual change-makers. Madhu and Meghna also host weekly gatherings in their apartment, which include an hour of silent meditation, an hour of sharing, and a home cooked meal, the first half eaten in silence. (They are also very welcoming hosts: they invited me to stay in an apartment that they maintain for their staff and visitors.)\nOther volunteer initiated projects that I caught wind of included the Dosti, or \u201cFriends\u201d, program, in which a class from one of Ahmadabad\u2019s exclusive private schools makes exchange visits to connect with a group of kids from the nearby slum. Another day I saw two U.S. college students hauling in a helium tank and large rubber balloons. They were introducing a method whereby they\u2019d attach a digital camera to the balloon and take aerial pictures of neighborhoods, which could be used for dialogue, planning, or activism. Another pair of volunteers had started an urban garden project. A popular long-time project is Seva Caf\u00e9, a volunteer-run restaurant where the patrons can leave what they want, contributing to the next customer\u2019s meal (paying-it-forward).\nI spent one of my last mornings in Ahmadabad with Ragu. He must be in his late twenties. About three years ago he started a program delivering meals to elderly people in the slums who don\u2019t have anyone to care for them. Every day, rain or shine, he picks up the pre-cooked meals and delivers them to over fifteen homes in one of the nearby slums, covering a loop that takes over an hour on his scooter. Accompanying him, it was clear that he wasn\u2019t just delivering food, but also his joyful and caring presence. Everyone smiled and greeted him as we navigated the narrow pathways.\nWhat makes his labor of love even more remarkable is that he lost his legs to polio. Until he received his scooter last year, he used to deliver the food using a tricycle that he pedaled with his hands and arms. His work and spirit highlighted for me the irrelevance of our common metrics of success. Ragu doesn\u2019t likely have any advanced degrees, certainly doesn\u2019t make a lot of money, and his greatest skill may be his ability to live from the heart. Yet probably more so than any corporate designed nursing home could ever be, Ragu is a critical link in the social sustainability of the local communities.\nSpending time in these organizations has been eye-opening, but also offered me a personal challenge. Letting go of my desire to carefully rationalize the design of projects takes a certain amount of faith.\nFor many of the organizations associated with Manav Sadhna, there is an overt recognition of the constant presence of something that can\u2019t be grasped by human rationality. In sharp contrast to institutions where religious tolerance often takes the form of secularity (not mentioning religion), these organizations actively embrace all religions, emphasizing the underlying spirituality. Each day begins with a non-mandatory morning prayer, which is a compilation of short hymns or chants from Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Christianity, and Islam[1]. It is then followed by a short period of sharing from anyone wanting to speak.\nHowever, faith and good intention aren\u2019t enough to ensure that appropriate actions are carried out. It takes time for the veils of ignorance to fall away, and often it only happens after wrong turns are made. Dedication to place and the presence of love create a rich environment for learning and growth. Love allows communities to accept that actions are carried out under the best of intentions, and helps dissolve personal egos, creating space for full community involvement.\nThe last project that I visited further convinced me of our need to shift our education systems in a way that embraces non-rational thinking and love. I\u2019d been hearing about this \u201cschool\u201d throughout my stay. It had been founded in a nearby community with the help of a long-time Manav Sadhna volunteer named Anjali, who is now in her tenth year in Ahmadabad. No one seemed to know whether the after-school program was still in session or not, since Anjali happened to be back in the U.S., so I made an unannounced visit. As I stepped off the street and into the community, I was greeted with a beaming smile from a 19-year-old boy named Rahul, who happened to be standing in the path. He said that he runs the after-school program when Anjali isn\u2019t around. He quickly rounded up fifteen kids, ranging in age from three to fifteen, and led me to their \u201cschool\u201d: a creative construction that the community had built using only recycled materials. The walls are cylinders made from mesh wire, and filled with stones, covered by a dome-like bamboo roof. The children glowed with pride as they toured me around the building they and their families had built. Rahul pointed out a swinging gate that he had pounded from a discarded oil drum.\nPatangyu (Butterfly) school, and children\nThe children led an opening prayer song that described the interconnectedness and divinity inside us all, and then presented me with a colorful paper butterfly that said \u201cHappy You,\u201d before we dove into an art activity. Rahul had a natural loving presence, helping facilitate the activity, offering encouragement, and giving instructions. The kids were all present because they wanted to be there, working and smiling together in groups of mixed age and genders. After we finished the art project, and the sun began to set, we gathered outside to play a few games. Several mothers watched the activities with curiosity, as they gathered flat cakes of cow dung that had been placed to dry behind the school\u2013fuel for cooking the evening meal. When I thanked the kids for two wonderful days with them, Rahul smiled and said \u201cNo sorry, no thank you,\u201d gesturing to his heart.\nIt brought to mind the story that I had read about Jayesh\u2019s decision to come back to India and work with his father. Ishwar had told him to \u201cPut your hand on your heart and ask if you can feel the love in the work that you\u2019re doing. If you don\u2019t feel the love, then you\u2019re not going to feel joy in your life. So be connected to the heart centeredness of your work.\u201d\n-Site visited by Christian Casillas | December 2012-January 2013\n[1] Translated text from one of the all-religion prayers: Speak the truth, practice non-violence of thoughts, speech, actions, do not steal, do not accumulate more than you need. Control all your senses, perform efforts on your own, do not believe in untouchabilty, all are equal. Do not have fear of anything, use things made in your own country, sacrifice tastes, all religions are equal. Practice these principals, bow down with respect and practice these things in your life.\n\u00a7 4 Responses to Profile: Manav Sadhna\nThursday, January, 31, 13 at 10:25 pm\nthanks, christian. what a beautiful article reflecting the wonderful people you are meeting.\nFriday, February, 1, 13 at 4:10 pm\nThrough his exotic travels, Christian has become an amalgam of Marco Polo and John Lennon.

Issaoun, M. Mo\u015bcibrodzka, Radboud University/ M. D. Johnson, CfA\nA black hole four million times as massive as our Sun lurks at the center of the Milky Way. This black hole, called Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), swallows nearby material that glows brightly as it approaches the event horizon. This galactic furnace is key to understanding black holes, but our view of it is obscured by lumpy clouds of electrons throughout the Galaxy. These clouds stretch, blur, and crinkle the image of Sgr A*, making it appear as though the black hole is blocked by an enormous sheet of frosted glass.\nNow, a team of astronomers, led by Radboud University PhD student Sara Issaoun, have finally been able to see through these clouds and to study what makes the black hole glow. Issaoun completed this work while participating in the Predoctoral Program at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, MA.\n\u201cThe source of the radiation from Sgr A* has been debated for decades,\u201d says Michael Johnson of the Center for Astrophysics Harvard and Smithsonian (CfA). \u201cSome models predict that the radiation comes from the disk of material being swallowed by the black hole, while others attribute it to a jet of material shooting away from the black hole. Without a sharper view of the black hole, we can\u2019t exclude either possibility.\u201d\nThe team used the technique of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), which combines many telescopes to form a virtual telescope the size of the Earth. The decisive advance was equipping the powerful ALMA array of telescopes in northern Chile with a new phasing system. This allowed it to join the GMVA, a global network of twelve other telescopes in North America and Europe.\nThe Global Millimeter VLBI Array, joined by ALMA. Credit: S. Issaoun, Radboud University/ D. Pesce, CfA\n\u201cALMA itself is a collection of more than 50 radio dishes. The magic of the new ALMA Phasing System is to allow all these dishes to function as a single telescope, which has the sensitivity of a single dish more than 75 meters across. That sensitivity, and its location high in the Andes mountains, makes it perfect for this Sgr A* study,\u201d says Shep Doeleman of the CfA, who was Principal Investigator of the ALMA Phasing Project.\n\u201cThe breakthrough in image quality came from two factors,\u201d explains Lindy Blackburn, a radio astronomer at the CfA. \u201cBy observing at high frequencies, the image corruption from interstellar material was less significant, and by adding ALMA, we doubled the resolving power of our instrument.\u201d\nThe new images show that the radiation from Sgr A* has a symmetrical morphology and is smaller than expected \u2013 it spans a mere 300 millionth of a degree. \u201cThis may indicate that the radio emission is produced in a disk of infalling gas rather than by a radio jet,\u201d explains Issaoun, who tested computer simulations against the images. \u201cHowever, that would make Sgr A* an exception compared to other radio-emitting black holes. The alternative could be that the radio jet is pointing almost directly at us.\u201d\nIssaoun\u2019s supervisor Heino Falcke, Professor of Radio Astronomy at Radboud University, was surprised by this result. Last year, Falcke would have considered this new jet model implausible, but recently another set of researchers came to a similar conclusion using ESO\u2019s Very Large Telescope Interferometer of optical telescopes and an independent technique. \u201cMaybe this is true after all,\u201d concludes Falcke, \u201cand we are looking at this beast from a very special vantage point.\u201d\nTo learn more will require pushing these telescopes to even higher frequencies. \u201cThe first observations of Sgr A* at 86 GHz date from 26 years ago, with only a handful of telescopes. Over the years, the quality of the data has improved steadily as more telescopes join,\u201d says J. Anton Zensus, director of the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy.\nMichael Johnson is optimistic. \u201cIf ALMA has the same success in joining the Event Horizon Telescope at even higher frequencies, then these new results show that interstellar scattering will not stop us from peering all the way down to the event horizon of the black hole.\u201d\nPublication: S.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Jeff vandermeer\nAnnihilation by Jeff Vandermeer \u2013 A Book Review\nLike you, I thought the movie trailer for Annihilation looked very cool, so I thought I\u2019d check out the source material.\nWhen the novel of the same name arrived at my local library, the volume\u2019s slimness surprised me. At only 195 pages, I knew it would prove a quick read.\nOf course, it may be helpful to know this is only the first of a three-book series. All three collected volumes are known as Southern Reach Trilogy. The three installments appear to have been published within months of one another, so that could explain the page count.\nWhatever the case may be, I have to admit that Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer immediately felt like a bad fit for me. The prose in this book is \u2026 dense. It\u2019s full of description largely pertaining to foliage and biology. Also, a first-person narrator delivers the story to us. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s Vandermeer\u2019s style or the style of his narrator, but I found the prose clunky and difficult to follow. To me, the sentences did not flow very smoothly which forced me to read and reread in a way that frustrated.\nWhen Vandermeer\u2019s characters spoke, this issue largely disappeared. The dialogue flowed freely and felt natural.\nThe plot itself interested me enough, but things moved rather slowly. In my opinion, there is no real \u201crevelation\u201d that makes the book a worthwhile, satisfying experience. Perhaps the other two books provide this experience. I\u2019m not sure I\u2019m inclined to read them, though.\nThe good news is that, as I said, this is a very slim book and so you can easily read it in a day or two and prove me wrong. I have been wrong about books before. I\u2019ve even reread a few books to find that my opinion of them changed completely.\nI still plan to see the movie, but, if I\u2019m being honest, not much that I\u2019ve seen in the trailers evokes much from what I read in the book.\nTagged annihilation, Book Reviews, books, Jeff vandermeer, read, science fiction\nWonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer \u2013 A Book Review\nThis book touts itself as \u201cThe Illustrated Guide to Creating Imaginative Fiction,\u201d and that\u2019s an accurate statement. In fact, the illustrations were really what set this book apart. Vandermeer offers great advice concerning fiction writing, but to be honest, it\u2019s fairly standard if you read many books concerning the topic. The illustrations, however, were weird, unique, and beautiful. Additionally, though they came from many different sources, they each served to reinforce what ever point Vandermeer made. By the way, just so you know, he uses examples from his own fiction quite a bit.\nFurthermore, Vandermeer collected vignettes from various sources focusing upon authors and their advice or thoughts concerning the craft. These were a delight to read, especially Neil Gaiman\u2019s. Other notable authors include George R.R. Martin, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Peter Straub.\nAll in all, if you\u2019re looking for an unconventional book to help you hone your fiction writing, Wonderbook fits the bill. Even if you don\u2019t find Vandermeer\u2019s insights stimulating, the illustrations should serve to inspire you.\nTagged creative writing, fiction, fiction writing, illustrations, Jeff vandermeer, wonderbook, writing",

        "raw_content": "Review: The Book of Daniel\nYou want a one-word summary review of NBC-TV's The Book of Daniel?\nI'd read and heard about all the pre-premiere hubbub about this show from Christian groups. After sitting through the two hour premiere, I can understand what all the shouting is about.\nThe show focuses on the family of an Episcopal priest, where it seems the only \"normal\" person in the family is the gay son. The priest has a Vicodin addiction, the wife seems to be an alcoholic, there is a daughter who is selling drugs and an adopted son who acts like he was actually raised in the home of one of the producers or writers of the show instead of a Christian home.\nThis review may piss people off, but I don't care because the show pissed me off. To me it represents the twisted outlook and values coming out of Hollywood, and the fact that they think that everyone must be as screwed up as they are.\nI was over at IMDB.com reading user reviews of the show and was stunned at the overwhelmingly positive tone. Tell me that the media and the public school system isn't working to portray the Christian church in a negative light, as a bunch of superstitious hyprocrites, and I'll tell you that you don't have a clue. People are actually buying into the fact that this is an accurate (albeit exaggerated) portrayal of a typical Christian pastor.\nWithout fail, every character that could be held up in a positive light as a representative of the church ended up having the rug pulled out from under them. Ellen Burstyn as a Bishop initially comes across as a traditional figure, but quickly degenerates into a political animal bumming Vicodin from our \"hero\" Daniel (Aidan Quinn) and then sleeping with another Bishop (Daniel's father) whose long-time wife is suffering from Alzheimers.\nThe main thread of the episode(s) was the embezzlement of over 3 million dollars that belonged to the church for the construction of a new school by Daniel's brother-in-law, who has run off with his young secretary, who it turns out is having a lesbian affair with the wife. Daniel contacts his Catholic priest friend who of course has ties to the Mafia to help locate the money.\nDo I really need to go on? The only person that was portrayed in anything even approaching a flattering manner (besides the gay son) was Jesus (who appeared sporadically and seemed more like a laid back surfer than anything else), to talk with Daniel.\nAccording to writer/producer Jack Kenny (who happens to be gay... shocking!) the family of his life partner was his inspiration for the show. Here's a quote:\n\"Although none of them are priests or takes Vicodin that I know of, they're northeastern WASPs, they've very loving, yet they have that conservatism",

        "raw_content": "More in this Section... Art Education Evaluation of Art Historians College Art Instruction Graphic Designers Studio Visual Resources Professionals\nGuidelines for College and University Galleries and Museums\nAdopted by SECAC at the 2000 Annual Meeting in Louisville, KY in October 2000, and amended at the Annual Meeting in Jacksonville, FL in October 2004.\nCollege and university art galleries and museums exist in a wide variety of forms. They often focus exclusively on art, but also can include other disciplines such as anthropology, history and science. Some solely mount exhibitions while others also collect objects. They can be found as independent entities within the academic setting, or as a part of a department or departments. Although some schools have clearly delineated policies and procedures regarding museums and galleries, some do not. The purpose of this document is to establish a framework that can be used by institutions, regardless of their configuration, to formalize their gallery and museum policies. In order to accommodate the wide range of forms which galleries and museums take, these guidelines have been designed to be flexible. Specifically, they include the questions that colleges and universities need to address in order to establish relevant policies to determine appropriate staff reporting, and institutional support.\nJob descriptions for directors and other museum staff need to include the reporting procedure, qualifications, and position status (faculty/staff). The mission statement needs to specify where the gallery/museum fits within the university/college structure, who the audience is, what kinds of exhibits are scheduled, and collection parameters.\nAlthough responses will vary, the answers to the following additional questions will help define how the museum/gallery is structured and governed. Who has authority for selecting exhibitions? Is there an exhibitions committee/advisory committee? Are there any barriers to what the gallery can do or the kinds of art it can show? Is there an adequate budget? What kind of staff support is there? Through the process of answering these questions and devising these policies, college and university galleries and museums can create a blueprint to guide directors in contributing fully to the aesthetic and intellectual growth of their audiences.\nHiring Procedures for College and University Galleries and Museums\nHiring procedures for various staff positions will vary considerably depending on the complexities of college or university gallery/museum structures. Some galleries may be administered through art department staffing; some are independent of an academic department, but may fall under the authority of a Dean, Provost, or Vice President. Some galleries/museums require large specialized staffs; others may have only one part-time staff member who may have the responsibilities of Director, Curator, Registrar, et al. Some galleries/museums have collections that require registration expertise, while others may not have collections - they mount exhibitions only. Because of this variety, staff qualifications will vary from institution to institution.\nThe gallery/museum staff members should be granted rank and status equal to those of other professionals with equivalent educational credentials and responsibilities within the institution. This includes equivalent salary levels, eligibility for promotion and tenure (if the position is adjunct to a tenure-track faculty line), participation in college or university governance, retirement, and other benefits. If academic status for gallery/museum professionals does not exist within the university or college, every effort should be made to reach salary parity with faculty or other staff positions within the university. For example, a museum director should have parity with academic administrators who have similar levels of responsibility; a curator should have parity with academic professors.\nListings for gallery and museum positions are often placed in the following publications: AAM Aviso, CAA Careers, the Chronicle of Higher Education, and professional organization websites.\nAt some institutions, the positions within the gallery/museum might result from the reassignment of faculty from teaching responsibilities. When such reassignments occur, and new positions are not created, no job search process is necessary to fill gallery/museum assignments.\nIf positions exist or are created specifically to staff a gallery/museum, then detailed information concerning position responsibilities should be supplied to any job candidate requesting such material. This information should include:\nA detailed description for the position including its ranking and reporting structure within the department and institution\nA description of the gallery/museum facilities\nA brief statement of the gallery/museum mission or philosophy with a current and/or past exhibition schedule(s)\nA description of the current staffing - permanent and student (if applicable) - in the gallery/museum, including the average number of hours per week each employee typically works\nAn explanation of benefits, salary range, and the availability of support for professional development\nA brief description of the procedures, evaluation processes, and anticipated timetables used in making decisions about professional advancement\nStandard institutional hiring procedures should be followed. If possible, the top-ranking candidates should be invited to the institution, and be provided an opportunity to evaluate the facilities, meet the staff, talk with the faculty, students and other professionals in the institution with whom the candidate would frequently interact, review the benefits package, and meet with administrators concerning the direction and future of the gallery/museum.\nAcademic institutions should provide an accurate job description for each gallery or museum position. All matters regarding reporting structures, renewal, retention, pay raise policies, promotion (if applicable to the position), and eligibility for tenure (if applicable) should be made clear in a letter of expectation to all professional staff.\nDepending on the complexity of the organizational structure of the gallery/museum, reporting procedures will vary. For gallery/museums whose missions are to serve the university community, the region, and with sizeable permanent collections; or galleries/museums that offer professionally curated exhibitions, a gallery/museum director would normally report to a dean, provost or university vice president. Smaller, less complex galleries, whose missions are primarily to serve as service units by exhibiting works by faculty and students within art departments might have directors who report to an art department chair.\nIt is important to provide opportunities for gallery/museum staff members to participate actively in the activities of relevant local, regional, and national professional organizations such as the College Art Association (CAA), the American Association of Museums (AAM), the Mid-America College Art Association (MACAA), SECAC, etc. They should be encouraged to attend conferences and relevant workshops, engage in research, etc. Where the possibilities of teaching, writing, and publishing exist, the appropriate staff should be encouraged to do so. Institutional support for these activities is essential and should be equivalent to that which is available for other similar professionals in the same institution.\nAnnual Review and Advancement\nThe museum/gallery director and staff should be reviewed on an annual basis, preferably through conferences between the appropriate administrators and the employee. The evaluation criteria shall be equivalent to those of other professional positions in the institution. At minimum, they should take into consideration sound job performance, evidence of professional development, and potential for growth. Evidence of appropriate professional activities within the institution, regionally, and nationally should also be included in the evaluation. The museum/gallery director and staff under review should be provided with a written copy of the reviewer's comments for their records.\nAt the time of the original appointment, a tentative date should be set for consideration for promotion (if applicable to the position) based on a performance review which allows at least one year in the initial rank for promotion.\nEvaluation and Review Procedures for Gallery/Museum\nCollege or university galleries and museums should be evaluated. Reviews should be based upon a standard set of criteria in accordance with the guidelines and procedures used to evaluate other units within the institution (such as academic departments). Such criteria may be used for either external reviews conducted by accrediting agencies or internal reviews conducted by the institution for the purpose of self-evaluation. In either case, it is recommended that a self-evaluation of the gallery or museum, undertaken by the staff members who manage it, precede the actual review. The staff person in charge of the gallery or museum should be the chief contact person for all reviews.\nStaffing for a museum/gallery will be dependent on such factors as the size of the institution, the level of financial support, and the extent of the collection (if any). Sufficient support staff with the appropriate qualifications should be provided. Ideally, galleries and museums with collections require a curator, curator of education, curator of collections, registrar, and preparator or exhibition designer.\nAt least an M.A. or M.F.A. in art history, studio art, museum studies, or arts administration is normally required. Positions that are tenure track may require a terminal degree in one's field of study. Actual experience in managing an arts organization could be considered in lieu of degree qualifications. Significant experience in an art museum or an art gallery with a working knowledge of operational procedures is also recommended.\nDepending on such factors as the size of the institution, the level of financial support, and the extent of the collection (if any), the responsibilities of a gallery/museum director may require some teaching as well as administrative duties. A gallery or museum director whose job description includes teaching should not be expected to teach a full course load at the institution.\nThe qualifications expected for a director may range considerably from one institution to another depending upon the responsibilities required. For example, at some institutions, the director is responsible for meeting with advisory committees, planning exhibition schedules, and meeting with museum/gallery members, sponsors and university administrators. At other institutions, some of these functions are assigned to other gallery/museum staff. In either case, the director should have a thorough understanding of all gallery/museum functions whether they are personally undertaken or delegated to others.\nGallery/museum directors should not be expected to raise funds for staff salaries, even if fund raising for the gallery/museum is part of the job description. Those institutions that encourage the director to raise money for the gallery or museum should provide access to the institution's development unit, or should make serious efforts to establish a line for a part-time or free-lance development person to assist in fund raising efforts.\nAt least an M.A. in art history, museum studies, studio art, or relevant field. Evidence of research and writing skills. Actual curatorial experience or other relevant gallery/museum experience could be considered in lieu of degree qualifications.\nCurator of Collections/Collections Manager\nAt least an M.A. in art history, museum studies, studio art, or relevant field. Actual curatorial research and writing or relevant gallery/museum experience could be considered in lieu of degree qualifications.\nAt least a B.A. in art history, museum studies, studio art, library science, or relevant field. Actual registration experience or educational background in fields requiring cataloging could be considered in lieu of degree qualifications.\nAt least a B.A. in art history, art education, or related field. Evidence of research, writing and public speaking skills. Actual curatorial experience or other relevant gallery/museum experience could be considered in lieu of degree qualifications.\nAt least a B.A. in studio art, museum studies, or equivalent combination of education and experience.\nExhibition Designer/Graphic Designer\nAt least a B.A. in studio art, design, or related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.\nA variety of jobs can be completed by interns, work-study students, or students taking classes for experiential course credit. As with the professional positions, there should be a detailed job description.\nRespectfully submitted by the SECAC Committee to Establish Guidelines for College and University Galleries, October 2000 Marina Pacini, Chair, Rhodes College; Steve Arbury, Radford University, Gylbert Coker, Florida A&M University; Arthur Jones, Radford University, Sam Yates, University of Tennessee",

        "raw_content": "Comics, Credibility, and Compromise: When Seeing Isn\u2019t Believing\nBy Tyler Reguly\nLast Monday afternoon, I was sitting in the dentist\u2019s chair when the radio announced the death of Stan Lee. Unlike other comic fans my age, I didn\u2019t read Marvel comics as a kid. All my parents bought me was Archie, but I watched every cartoon I could \u2013 X-Men, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Fantastic Four. In high school, Marvel continued to reign supreme with X-Men, Blade and others. In college, it was Spider-Man, Daredevil, Hulk, The Punisher. I\u2019ve gotten back to comics, not Archie, but Marvel and other big names.\nAs we approach Thanksgiving in the U.S., I can\u2019t help but think of how thankful I am for Stan Lee and the other big names in comics. I\u2019m thankful to work for a company that engaged one of my favourite artists to create an original Halloween comic. I\u2019m thankful for my local comic shop that provides me with plenty of reading material. While I was sitting in that chair, one of the most uncomfortable places to be, hearing this horrible news about the loss of an icon, I was also thankful that I had the opportunity to meet Stan and get a photo with him.\nAs I was reflecting on the loss of a celebrity\u2026 an inspiration for many. I realized that I heard the news of Stan's passing on the radio and took it at face value. I didn\u2019t immediately start Googling to see what various websites were reporting. I didn\u2019t change the station to see what another news reports said. I simply accepted it as a fact. We live in an age where we have all become online fact checkers. I remember back in 2012, news went around that Alfonso Ribeiro (Fresh Prince of Bel Air\u2019s Carlton) had died. He was not dead, but plenty of people discussed it and shared it, while others were Googling to see if it was true. While I was sad that the news of Stan Lee was true, it was a breath of fresh air to not have to jump on Google and start verifying sources and statements.\nI was further surprised this weekend to discover, via the Washington Post, that there are people who make as much as $15,000 a month generating fake news under the guise of satire and parody sites. The stories of people who blindly click like and share was also impressive. Then, I thought about a Facebook friend who once posted, \u201cI know I share a lot of Fake News, I don\u2019t care because I find them funny.\u201d The problem is that everyone else doesn\u2019t necessarily have the critical thinking skills to determine if something is fake or real before they click share.\nWhile there are clearly social and political implications that we are seeing at a global scale, there\u2019s also security implications to the fake articles and headlines that we see spreading. Our browsers are under a constant threat of attack. When we visit a webpage, our browsers render HTML, client-side languages like JavaScript, and images to display the site for us. During that rendering, exploits targeting vulnerabilities in our browsers and their supporting technologies can be executed. This is one of the methods that attackers commonly use to compromise a host, a stepping stone to the harvesting of personal information or the installation of ransomware.\nIt\u2019s such a critical attack vector that the very first row of the very first column of MITRE\u2019s ATT&CK Framework is Drive-by Compromise. Typically, you won\u2019t even know that it has happened, but in the background, after visiting a malicious page, something nefarious is happening. There are steps that we can take with security software and various services to help us browse safer, but just like defensive driving on the road, the best way to stay safe on the information superhighway is defensive browsing. When you hear that someone drove drunk or ran a red light, you instinctively say, \u201cYou got lucky this time, next time you probably won\u2019t.\u201d The same is true while surfing the web, when people constantly click on articles with click bait titles or fake images, the risk of a drive-by compromise greatly increases.\nMaybe you won\u2019t click on the next fake headline designed to shock you, but a parent or grandparent might. Become a voice of logic and reason, directing them away from these pages, sites, and social media groups. I find myself regularly commenting on shared fake articles with evidence that they are incorrect, often via links to Snopes and similar websites. So that brings me to one last thing that I am thankful for as we approach Thanksgiving\u2026 fact checking websites like Snopes that help to verify what\u2019s real and what\u2019s not.",

Kick off 7.45pm\nOn Sligo and Bohs in the League Cup:\n\u201cTwo good wins, good to get them before the Bray game. We\u2019re delighted to be in the next round and again we played some really good football, scored three good goals and maybe could have had one or two more. Brandon Miele looks on it now in front of goal, anything that falls to him he\u2019s hitting, left or right foot. He looks really focused in front of goal and hopefully he can keep that going on Friday\u201d.\n\u201cWe have to assess Danny Devine in the morning and see how he is. Paul Corry is back in full training this week, he\u2019s obviously been out for the last five or six weeks so he\u2019s back in. Ryan Connolly is still struggling with his foot but other than that we\u2019re OK. It\u2019s brilliant to have Luke Byrne back. He\u2019s worked so hard to get himself in a position to be available for selection. It looked at times (against Bohs) that he\u2019d never been away, he was excellent.\u201d\nOn Bray:\n\u201cThey\u2019re obviously doing really well this year, they have a good squad and they\u2019re picking up results. Gary McCabe is doing well, he\u2019s having a good year, he\u2019s scoring goals and he\u2019s dangerous if you give him time around the box so we have to be aware of that. It\u2019s going to be a tough game, we know that, but we\u2019re going into the game on the back of two good results, so we\u2019ll be strong as well and it has all the makings of a good game.\u201d",

As a phenomenon in the 1990s, Lisa Ann rocked the industry when she took a sabbatical in 1997 and didn't return until early 2006. Studios could hardly wait to get their hands on her. She is known in the industry as a perfectionist who chooses her projects and partners carefully. This busty Italian beauty has perfect olive skin, silky dark brown hair, a coy smile, and a seductive charm that makes men melt. Lisa Ann has a sweet, sensual personality but loves the rougher things in life, like fast cars and wild parties.\nWith her widespread mainstream notoriety in 2008 as the Sarah Palin-lookalike star of Hustler's crossover smash hit Who's Nailin' Paylin, it's no surprise that Lisa Ann won high-profile awards in early 2009. She was the Performer of the Year at the VOD Awards and the MILF/Cougar Performer of the Year at the AVN Awards, and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame that year. She's been showered with nominations and awards ever since. Lisa Ann has reprised the Paylin/Palin role multiple times in what has become a successful series of parodies. She has even played the Tina Fey role in the hit 30 Rock: A XXX Parody, after Fey famously spoofed Palin on Saturday Night Live. Lisa Ann is also the first star to win two AEBN VOD Performer of the Year awards, in 2009 and 2011.\nLisa Ann's name is synonymous with porn star longevity and mature sex appeal - one look at any of her scenes will show you why. To see this beauty at her best, we recommend Gang Banged (Elegant Angel Productions), Lex Vs. Lisa Ann (Evil Angel), MILF Revolution (Jules Jordan Video), and too many others to fit in this space!\nAlle Anzeigen Lisa Ann Filme",

        "raw_content": "Home News Malaysia Johor-Singapore Rapid Transit System by 2022\nJohor-Singapore Rapid Transit System by 2022\nThe Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) is in the final stages of discussions on the Johor-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS).\n\u201cWe understand that it is important to not only connect within the region but also with Singapore. We are at the last stage of discussions to connect Singapore and, hopefully by 2020, the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system in Johor will be connected to Singapore\u2019s transport system,\u201d said IRDA CEO Datuk Ismail Ibrahim. He added that the BRT system in Iskandar Malaysia should be completed by 2020, while the RTS is targeted to be implemented by the year 2022 and the Malaysia-Singapore High-Speed Rail by 2026.\nDatuk Ismail said there are no plans for a mass rapid transit (MRT) or a light rail transit (LRT) system in Iskandar Malaysia, for now. \u201cJohor \u2014 Iskandar Malaysia specifically \u2014 does not have a large enough population to support such a transportation system. Of course, we are aware of the importance of public transportation in the region, but it is not the right time yet,\u201d he said, hence the introduction of the BRT system instead. \u201cCities like Brisbane in Australia, for example, has proven that a BRT could move people around very well in an affordable and efficient way,\u201d he added.\nDatuk Ismail was speaking at the second Marketplace Series of Forums held today in Johor Bahru. Organised by the Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute and the Full Gospel Business Men\u2019s Fellowship International, the forum in Johor themed \u201cBuilding Cities, Enriching Communities\u201d aims to encourage sharing and deliberation on effective ways to create holistic lifestyles in developing and developed cities using Iskandar Malaysia as the point of reference.\n\u201cIf we can reach the same result with a more economically effective way, why not? We cannot compare Johor with Kuala Lumpur, as Johor has a population of about two million people and it won\u2019t be able to support an MRT or LRT. The BRT and RTS are more cost-effective and suit Johor best,\u201d Ismail said.\nDatuk Ismail also spoke about the impact of China\u2019s capital control policy on property sales in Johor, especially projects by China developers, which had been largely targeted at buyers from China. \u201cThe current capital controls not only impact Johor but also the rest of the world. China developers in Johor are still doing well, but we should monitor the situation carefully,\u201d he said. He also pointed out that China updates its policies from time to time. \u201cYou see the trend that they [China] update their policy every one or two years. The situation may change very soon,\u201d Ismail concluded.\nPrevious articlePlacing employees at the forefront of cybersecurity\nNext articleSeparate listing of Islamic shares on local bourse?",

        "raw_content": "Smoop / Branding / A Guide to Promoting Your Brand Online\nOne of the most important elements for the success of any artist today is popularity on YouTube and other social media platforms.\nHowever, you have to do a lot more than simply creating amazing music videos to realize its full potential. It is pointless to produce music videos than nobody ends up watching. If nobody is interested in seeing your videos and sharing them, then it means that they are basically worthless. It is thus important to come up with advertisements and promotions for boosting the visibility of your videos online.\nBelow you will find 5 important things you need to do to promote and boost your music video to achieve exceptional results.\n1. Publish Your Videos Natively\nGreat video content should be shared and the best way to make this possible is ensuring that it is hosted online. The first step is to identify the right platform from the most popular ones around such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Vine, and Vimeo.\nYouTube is by far the largest of these options. It is also the second largest search engine on the planet, which means that it offers more opportunities for reaching your target audience.\nStill, it is not enough simply to host videos online. It is also important to determine how they perform so that you can decide your next steps. You can choose to either run paid ads behind your high performing videos or cross promote.\nNow, here is where promoting your music videos comes into play. To ensure viewership of your videos, you should consider frugally advertising on social media with targeted audiences and regulated budgets.\n2. Optimizing Your Videos\nPeople do not have a lot of patience and time when they search online, which is why you need to strike them at a glance, convince them to click and watch your video then and there.\nThe first step here is to optimize your videos for different social media platforms. Keep in mind that people usually watch videos on mobile devices, so try experimenting with mobile formats such as vertical or square videos.\n3. Using Promotional Services and Tools\nIf you want your video content to reach more people, you need to take advantage of social media and YouTube video promotion. People are increasingly hanging around social media platforms almost daily. It means that you can easily reach more people if you make use of social media ads.\nYou can leverage your advertising by targeting the audience based on numerous factors \u2013 for example buy soundcloud plays and soundcloud followers. If you do that, you will gain access to a more specific group of fans that may benefit from watching your video content.\nIt is important to ensure that your videos touch the heart and soul of your fans. This way, you can create deep and memorable engagement with them, which will in turn result in a higher response rate by getting more comments, shares, and likes.\nThe higher the number of people that watch your music video, the higher your chances of converting them into fans.\n4. Optimize Your Videos for the Search Engines\nSearch Engine Optimization (SEO) works. It has actually helped numerous companies boost and grow their businesses online and yours is no different.\nSEO is not just about understanding what potential customers are searching for but also making sure that content is linkable and shareable.\nIf you know exactly what your prospects are searching for, you can create online content that\u2019s engaging and highly relevant as well as a greater chance to gain more shares, likes, and love.\n5. Sharing Your Videos in Niche Communities\nOne of the most effective ways to promote your videos is to target online music communities, particularly those in the same niche as your music.\nYou can use various tools to learn more about the target audience. However, you can always begin with a general Google search. After that, you can get more specific by using social media.\nWhether it is via a Facebook group, LinkedIn group, or any other popular online community, it is possible to actively participate in discussions or conversations while sharing your videos when relevant.",

        "raw_content": "Japan's electricity supply has been in the worst crisis during hot summer\nRecently Japanese people are not seriously discussing electricity supply shortage, but the nation's power supply during this summer has been in the worst crisis since the severe earthquake in 2011.\nElectricity supply capacity utilization by Tokyo Electric Power Company exceeded 90% seven times by the end of August this year, compared to only once during the summer season in 2012.\nElectricity demand in the service area of western Japan's Kansai Electric Power Company exceeded its supply capacity excluding two running nuclear units 15 days during July-August. That was occurred only once during the summer in 2012. KEPCO's electricity supply exceeded the critical level of 95% utilization for the first time in June this year and repeated five times during July-August.\nExtremely hot day, that is a day temperature exceeds 35 degrees Celcius, was recorded in Tokyo four times in 2011 and six times in 2012. But there were eleven times by the end of August in 2013, according to the Meteorological Agency. Extremely hot days in Osaka were nearly doubled to 23 times in 2013 from 12 times in 2012.\nOn the other hand, TEPCO's electricity supply often has been in crisis during autumn when many thermal power plants were shut for maintenance after the peak demand season. The company's capacity utilization once exceeded 95% in November 2012.\nOne of the KEPCO's two operating nuclear units has stopped since 2nd September for regular maintenance, and another unit is also scheduled to shut on 15th September by same reason. End of the maintenance period at the nuclear units is not decided yet.\nPower demand in the KEPCO's service area exceeded its supply capacity excluding nuclear units eight times during last winter. If next winter is very cold, electricity supply could be in anxious.\nCapital investment by Japanese companies rose from a year ago in April-June 2013 for the first time since Q3 in 2012, according to the Ministry of Finance. Electricity demand in Japan seems to increase even if many companies are still trying to reduce power consumption.\nHowever, expected consumption tax hike may hamper growth of Japanese economy and eliminate electricity supply anxiety.",

Its goal ratio has 38 scored and 11 conceded.\nHis outward performance has been identical to the homemaker, scoring with the same regularity. The dragons record 2 draws and 1 win in the last 3 matches.\nI believe there is value in exploring the goal market, more precisely the Under 2.5. An important aspect to emphasize is that the two teams are less concrete when they play out of doors.\nIn addition we are talking about a classic, and analyzing the last 9 clashes between Benfica and FC Porto, we verified that Under was fulfilled in 8 of them.\nBenfica vs Porto Our Betting Prediction\nIn this type of games there are no longer great secrets, the teams know each other in detail and so it is not surprising that the Under market has been a trend in these classics or derbys played in recent years.\nAlso note that the entry of Bruno Lage brought some positive changes, some of them were a more thoughtful football, with greater control of the match and also greatly reduced the number of occasions that Benfica was conceding to opponents.",

        "raw_content": "Home Solar News Industry Africa, Indian Governments Aim to Leverage Solar PV, Mini-Grids in Joint Bid...\nLast edited: July 14, 2017 @ 04:05 PM PST\nA confluence of key driving factors has unleashed a growing wave of off-grid solar PV and mini/microgrid installations and systems deployments across the developing world. Sharp drops in the cost of solar PV equipment and, more recently, lithium-ion batteries (LiBs), along with development of mobile e-payments and cloud network software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms is fueling unprecedented gains in rural electrification and local sustainable energy and development. The benefits and returns are accumulating fastest, and spreading farthest, in Sub-Saharan Africa and India.\nThe ability of multilateral government international development agencies and other socially and environmentally-minded organizations to tap into and collaborate effectively with solar energy/clean tech entrepreneurs and local communities has been a key, fundamental driving force. A case in point emerged recently with news that Indian and African government representatives are in the midst of crafting a joint, South-South sustainable energy/sustainable development public-private partnership aimed at eradicating energy poverty in Africa. Off-grid mobile pay-go home solar energy systems, energy efficient household products and solar mini/microgrids are bound to play a leading role in any resulting initiative.\nA South-South, Africa-India Energy Eradication Plan Emerges\nLeading Sub-Saharan African and international mobile pay-go solar venture companies have been raising equity, and just recently, debt capital, from international investment groups and multinational corporations, proving that a new, 21st century development model centered on forging community-driven public-private partnerships can establish a foundation for sustainable energy and socioeconomic development.\nSimilarly, rural, off-grid home solar PV systems and community solar mini and microgrids have emerged as core elements in realizing the Indian and African government\u2019s universal electricity access, renewable energy and climate change action strategic plans and goals. African and Indian government representatives are attempting to take all this to a higher level with plans to launch a joint effort to eradicate energy poverty in Africa under way.\n\u201cPieces are falling into place for an important collaboration between India and Africa to end energy poverty. The stakes are high, as sub-Saharan Africa and India account for over 80 percent of the world\u2019s 1.1 billion unelectrified,\u201d Power for All\u2019s William Brent wrote in a Thomson Reuters Foundation news report.\nAccording to Brent: \u201cThe area most ripe for immediate collaboration is solar irrigation, which is already scaling rapidly in India and will be a major help to the AfDB [African Development Bank] in its goals of achieving universal electricity access and ending hunger and malnutrition by 2025. India too has major ambitions, including 100 percent household electrification by 2019.\u201d\nThis warrants particular attention internationally given the flood of refugees fleeing their homes in Africa for safe havens in Europe, developments that have reignited political controversy regarding refugee, immigration and counter-terrorism policies and actions throughout the European Union (EU).\nOff-Grid Rural Home and Community Solar Mini/Microgrids Emerge as Keys to Alleviating Energy Poverty\nLocal solar and renewable energy mini and microgrids \u201chave emerged as one of the most promising off-grid solutions for low-income rural populations in India and other developing countries because of their ability to deliver reliable, sufficient and clean energy the last mile,\u201d Deepali Khanna, director of the Rockefeller Foundation\u2019s Smart Power for Rural Development program, told Solar Magazine.\nThat said, the costs associated with sourcing and transporting equipment and installing solar/renewable energy mini/microgrids designed specifically to meet the basic energy needs of rural, low-income Indian households and communities can be unnecessarily high. They can also take longer than necessary to get up and running, at times requiring two to three months to complete, Khanna pointed out.\nThe Rockefeller Foundation launched the $75 million Smart Power for Rural Development program in 2014 to come up with and implement solutions. \u201cSPRD offers a complementary model to the delivery of rural electricity using decentralized mini-grids based on renewable energy sources,\u201d three program team members explain in a blog post.\nThe Rockefeller Foundation\u2019s Smart Power for Rural Development Initiative\nThe Rockefeller Foundation SPRD Impact Report\nThe sustainable development-renewable energy initiative \u201cseeks to accelerate rural development and, in turn, improve the lives of the poor and marginalized.\u201d Working through the program\u2019s Smart Power India subsidiary, the Rockefeller Foundation has supported seven energy companies\u2019 efforts to expand electricity services in rural villages across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Jharkhand. All told, the initiative has brought safe, reliable and affordable emissions-free electrical power to more than 40,000 Indians, the majority poor and members of groups long excluded from mainstream Indian society, the project team members highlight.\nThe energy and socioeconomic data and information Smart Power India has been gathering and analyzing highlights the multiple return and benefit streams reducing the cost of properly designed and installed solar and renewable energy community mini and microgrids in rural India can yield.\n\u201cWe know what a difference energy access can make: a 13% increase in monthly revenues for small businesses, increased quality after-school study time for children, and 7% growth in new enterprises, and there are many other benefits,\u201d Khanna highlighted.\nITT\u2019s \u201cUtility-in-a-Box\u201d\nRural India PV installation | Credit: ITT\nKhanna went on to single out the recent launch of the Institute for Transformative Technologies\u2019 \u201cUtility-in-a-Box\u201d (UiB) as an example of the promising technological innovations the Rockefeller Foundation is helping off-grid solar and renewable energy researchers develop. \u201cThe foundation invested USD1.5 million to facilitate development of technologies that will help advance the growth of the mini-grid sector and accelerate 100% electrification in India at the household level,\u201d he elaborated.\nAccording to initial performance data, ITT\u2019s UiB reduces rural renewable mini-grid project capital expenditures 20% from existing levels in India. That makes investing in and deploying rural community solar mini-grids that much more attractive to investors and energy service companies.\nAs Khanna explains. \u201cThe modular design enables mini-grid operators to scale up or scale down to suit village size and growth in energy demand, while the higher-quality components will invite less maintenance. And because it comes pre-assembled, UiB significantly reduces the time it takes to install mini-grids in rural areas, to about a week.\u201d\nCapitalizing on Hard-Won, Well-Earned Early Stage Success\nOff-grid solar and renewable energy technology and systems innovations such as ITT\u2019s UiB have the potential to make a significant contribution in terms of enhancing India\u2019s capacity to realize its ambitious universal electricity access, renewable energy, climate change action and sustainable development goals. That potential extends well beyond India\u2019s borders, more specifically with regard to the African-Indian energy poverty eradication initiative that\u2019s taking shape.\n\u201cThe impact of deploying UiBs in India\u2019s most energy-starved villages can be substantial. More communities can be quickly connected to the electricity they need to power their homes and businesses, amplifying the socioeconomic benefits of energy access to even more underserved communities while leapfrogging rural economic development,\u201d Rockefeller Foundation Smart Power for Rural Development program members write.\n\u201cSignificantly reduced upfront costs and ease of installation can help de-risk investments in mini-grids, facilitating sector growth so that it can potentially achieve economies of scale. We believe mini-grids are integral to the Indian government\u2019s plans to achieve 24\u00d77 power for all, and UiB can help accelerate this ambition.\u201d\nThe same can be said with regard to Africa, where the AfDB, along with other multilateral development agencies, fast growing off-grid solar venture companies, African governments, multinational corporations and international investors are helping bring safe, reliable, affordable and environmentally friendly energy services to millions that have never known, been able to experience, or take advantage of the socioeconomic benefits and opportunities electrical power and energy can provide. comment",

        "raw_content": "Cerbera manghas L. 1753\npronounced: SER:ber-uh MANG-ass\nsynonym: Cerbera lactaria Buch.-Ham. ex Spreng. 1825\npronounced: SER-ber-uh lack-TAIR-ee-uh\ncommon names: Native Frangipani, Milkwood, Sea Mango\nnative frangipani buds The genus name comes from Cerberus, in Greek mythology, the monstrous three-headed dog who guarded the gate to Hades, to ensure that no living person could enter, but only the spirits of the dead, and that no-one could leave. He had a snake for a tail, and snakes down his back like a mane. In Dante\u2019s Inferno, he is described as having a human head. He was overcome several times, with the aid of gods or supernatural talents: most famously, in Hercules\u2019 final labour, which was to capture Cerberus. He accomplished this by wrestling him into submission. Orpheus used his musical skills to lull Cerberus to sleep.\nbuds opening flowers The name was used for this genus because the leaves and the fruits, particularly the seeds, contain the deadly cardiac poison cerberin, the ingestion of which can cause sudden death. In Madagascar, the seeds were used in ritual killings of sentenced kings and queens. Indeed, in that part of the world the tree is known as the Madagascan Ordeal Bean. The sap was used in some places to poison the tips of spears and arrows.\nManghas poses more problems as to its derivation. The only web site I have found that gives any explanation for the name blandly states that it is \u2018the Latin word for mango\u2019. As the mango was unknown in Europe in Roman times, this is unlikely, unless it was a word coined in \u2018botanical Latin\u2019 after the fruit became known to the Portuguese in the early 16th century. The -ngh- in the word is not a typical Latin form, but probably arose from a Latinization of the Greek -\u03b3\u03b3- in the word \u03bc\u03b1\u03b3\u03b3\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd, which is pronounced something like \u2018manga\u00f1on\u2019, and may have been chosen for the species name because of its similarity to the Tamil word for mango, which is mangai. One of the several meanings of this Greek word is \u2018an acorn or any similar fruit\u2019. This species was named in 1753 by the great Swedish botanist Linnaeus, who virtually invented the present system of botanical classification. In the synonym, lactaria is from the Latin for \u2018containing milk\u2019.\nThe tree occurs naturally in Africa, tropical Asia, Australia and some of the Pacific Islands, occupying coastal habitats, often associated with mangrove forests. It has been introduced into Hawaii and some other tropical locations as an ornamental. There are two growing in gardens by the side of the road in Magnetic Street, Picnic Bay, and various others that seem to have escaped from cultivation.\nIt is a small, evergreen tree that usually grows up to 3 or 4 metres tall. The shiny, dark green leaves are ovate in shape, and alternate. The flowers are fragrant, and have a broadly spreading white tubular 5-lobed corolla roughly 3 to 5 cm in diameter, with a pink to red throat. There are five stamens, and the ovary is situated above the other flower parts. The fruits are egg-shaped, anything up to 10 cm long, and turn bright red at maturity. I have not seen fruits on any of the Magnetic Island trees, but they have been observed in fruit at Cape Tribulation. All parts of the plant contain latex.\nThe moth Comostola chlorargyra uses this as a food plant for its caterpillars.\nThe wood is occasionally used in tropical Asia for mouldings, fruit cases, core veneer, matches, clogs, and plain furniture. It was once used for building, but now is mainly used for carving, especially, because of its lightness, for face masks in Sri Lanka. Another interesting use is for the making of the moulds upon which Panama hats are woven.",

        "raw_content": "Journalism Through The Lens Of The Hawk Intro to Journalism with a look at Saint Joseph's University's Student run Newspaper\n1.2 Key Vocabulary Terms\n1.3 Journalism Technique: Inverted Pyramid\n1.4 \"The Hawk\" Newspaper at Saint Joseph's University\n1.5 The Hawk April 2017\nDID YOU KNOW? The New York Times has won 122 Pulitzer Prizes, more than any other newspaper to date..\nHave you ever thought of writing for The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal? Becoming a news anchor on CNN or Fox? Even if the written word is \"dying\", the world of journalism is expanding day by day. With modern technology, we have local and global news in an instant with just the tap of our finger. According to The Elements of Journalism by Bill Kovach and Tom Rosensteil, the principle of journalism is \"the function that news plays in the lives of people\".\nJournalism is its own genre of writing, for it is not informal, but not an academic paper. There is no exact date as to when journalism was created, but over times the way we view the news has developed. There is a vocabulary (which will be discussed in 1.2), methods, ideas and theories to apply when writing a news article, whether it be about a major political action or a championship sport game. This chapter will discuss important vocabulary words and the structure of writing a news article. There will be a focus on The Hawk, a newspaper written by the students of Saint Joseph's University, to see how journalism changes over time, but also holds the same core methods from years past. Finally, journalism on a global scale will be discussed in order to view how news is reported around the world.\nThe video above is a three minute lesson on what journalism is and why it is important!\nDID YOU KNOW? The printing press was invented by the Europeans in 1440. It was not until September of 1619 that the first news paper was printed in America (Boston, MA).\nRemember when you were assigned to write your first academic research paper? You had to find a topic, write a rough draft, construct a thesis statement, state your research in the body of your essay, pull all of your information to a conclusion, cite your sources in specific formats (i.e., MLA, APA, Chicago) and maybe even create a cover page, abstract or annotated bibliography. In order to write an academic paper, you needed to learn new vocabulary, such as the words bolded above. Just like academic writing, journalistic writing has its own language, too!\nBefore you begin writing your own article, here are just a few vocabulary words that are important to know. By clicking the bolded word you can find a more detailed explanation of the term.\n1.) Attribution - Designation of the person being quoted. Also, the source of information in a story.\n2.) Beat - Area assigned to a reporter for regular coverage. Also an exclusive story.\n3.) Break - When a news story development becomes known and available.\n4.) Byline - Name of the reporter who wrote the story placed a top of a published article.\n5.) Dateline - Name of the city or town and sometimes the date at the start of a story that is not of local origin.\n6.) Feature - Story emphasizing the human or entertaining aspects of a station. A news story or other material differentiated from straight news.\n7.) Hard News - Spot news; live and current news in contrast to features.\n8.) Lead - First paragraph of a news story\n9.) Running Story - Event that develops and is covered over a period of time.\nFor the full list of terms from The Wall Street Journal, you may click here.\nDID YOU KNOW? Margaret Fuller was the first female foreign correspondent and one of the world's first professional war reporters. She wrote for the New York Tribune in 1849.\nWhen writing a news story, every detail should be available to the reader. As the reporter, you want to get the important information out there first to grab the readers attention and keep them interested. The most widely used and well known style of journalistic writing is known as the inverted pyramid theory.\nAn example of how the inverted pyramid theory works. Amount of information included may vary depending on the story being reported.\nHere are some recent news articles, see if you can identify where \"The Lead\" \"The Body\" and \"The Tail\" start and end. (Hint: Majority of news stories follow this structure, but not all. Do any of the article not follow the inverted pyramid?)\nTMZ article\nThe Huffington Post article\ntest run: tell us a story\nImagine that your good friend from school is in Spain for the summer. You two had promised to keep in touch and write letters to one another over the summer. Something exciting happened to you and you want to let them know all about it! It is important for your friend to find out all of the information in this one letter since it takes a couple weeks for them to receive it. Using the inverted pyramid theory, inform your friend about the event in such detail that they are not missing any pieces of your story. When finished, refer back to the diagram above and see if your story covers all of the fields required.\nDID YOU KNOW? Saint Joseph's University was originally an all male university. It did not open its door to women until 1970.\nthe importance of student run newspapers\nAll of the previous articles we have looked at have been written by large, mainstream news sources, but all of those journalists had to start somewhere, and that somewhere may just be on their university's newspaper staff. Yale University's student run newspaper The Yale Daily has been in print since 1878. Large schools such as Ohio State University and Arizona State University deliver their news to a student body of over fifty-thousand students. (Luther, 2012)\nAlmost every university has a student run newspaper to serve the student body with campus, local and global news. Not only does the paper spread news, but it offers students managing positions, editing jobs, journalism experience and so on. It also teaches students how to work and cooperate with a large group of other people since there are many behind the scenes jobs that go into putting a newspaper together.\nIn this next chapter, we will take a look at Saint Joseph University's newspaper known as The Hawk. The Hawk is based out of Philadelphia, PA and was first published in 1929. According to The Hawk's Facebook page, a new paper is printed every Wednesday of the school year with the print circulation of about 2,500 copies. Before we observe their most recent issue, below is an interview with their Assistant Lifestyle Editor, Franki Rudnesky and her time on The Hawk.\nInterviewer: Thanks for taking time out of your day to answer questions about your time on The Hawk staff. When did you join The Hawk?\nFranki: I joined The Hawk my freshmen year as a writer and then this semester (spring 2017) I became the assistant lifestyle editor.\nInterviewer: What is your favorite part about being part of the organization?\nFranki: I love writing about unique and relevant stories, then being able to see my writing in print. I also love working with the editorial team of The Hawk because they're all great and I've been learning a lot and gaining useful experiences.\nInterviewer: What do you write about?\nFranki: I write in the lifestyle section. We cover music, art, TV, movies, plays, profiles, entertainment...basically everything that is not covered in the other sections.\nInterviewer: Are you familiar with the Inverted Triangle method of journalism? If so, do you find it useful when writing?\nFranki: Yes, I'm familiar with the triangle from my journalism course and I do find it very helpful.\nInterviewer: Do you read other forms of journalism in your free time? If so, which do you read most often?\nFranki: Yes! I read a lot of news, usually the Philly Inquire, Philly Magazine, The New York Times, my local paper at home and more. Anything I can get my hands on, really.\nYou can find out more about Franki Rudnesky on The Hawk website where you can follow her Twitter account, or contact her for more information.\nFranki is a good example of how journalism can not only be a way to share news to the public, but also be a good outlet for the creative side, open up doors for higher positions in the field all while improving your writing.\n1.5 \"The Hawk\" April 2017\nTo view the most recent edition of The Hawk, click here\nTake a look at these three excerpts from the newspaper.

Was there anything that you wish they would have written about in addition?\nSo, why is journalism important?\nJournalism is important to the way society works. Whether it be through physical printed papers, online journals, social media or any other outlet of news, it still matters. The media is powerful, so the stories that are portrayed in the media should be factual, truthful, written coherently and well in standard English, all while being interesting enough to reel a reader in and keep them there for the whole story.\nKovach, B., & Rosenstiel, T.

        "title": "The Chelyabinsk Impact of 02/15/13 | Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute",
        "raw_content": "The Chelyabinsk Impact of 02/15/13\nShortly after sunrise on February 15, a rocky projectile entered the atmosphere over the Ural Mountains traveling at more than 18 km/sec. It was about 20 meters in diameter, or half the diameter of the famous Tunguska impact of 1908, which flattened a thousand square miles of Siberian forest. The bolide left a trail of smoky condensation across the sky as it vaporized in the atmosphere. Its terminal explosion, at an altitude of 23 km, released energy of about half a megaton, equivalent to a couple dozen Hiroshima-sized atom bombs. When it exploded, the bolide was for a few seconds brighter than the Sun. About two minutes later the shock wave reached the ground in Chelyabinsk, breaking windows and injuring about 1500 people from flying glass.\nWith a diameter of 20m, the Chelyabinsk impactor was smaller than most asteroids that have been detected by the telescopes of the NASA Spaceguard Survey, which focuses on finding asteroids of about 100m or larger. Furthermore, since it approached the Earth from very near the direction of the Sun, it could not have been seen by any ground-based optical telescope of any size. It therefore struck without warning, although the atmospheric explosion was measured by down-looking surveillance satellites. The Chelyabinsk bolide had about a tenth of the energy, and exploded more than twice as high, as Tunguska, and the blast energy was directed more sideways that downward. These factors resulted, thankfully, in much less damage on the ground.\nThe explosion also produced a shower of stony meteorites, of a type (ordinary chondrite) common among the asteroids. These meteorites were distributed over an impact region more than 100 km long.\nPerhaps most surprising is what did not happen: There was no panic reaction that this was a nuclear attack. As long ago as 1981, Gene Shoemaker warned that an unexpected cosmic impact might be misinterpreted as an attack and trigger a nuclear exchange. This fear has hovered over all subsequent studies of the impact hazard. Perhaps it was a legitimate concern during the cold war, and maybe this is still a danger if a cosmic impact took place over the disputed territory of nuclear-armed antagonists such as India and Pakistan. Chelyabinsk Oblast includes many Russian defense facilities, some of which design and build nuclear weapons and rocket delivery systems. Those with long memories may remember that this area was the target of the 1960 U.S. U-2 flight of Gary Powers that was shot down by a Soviet missile. Yet apparently neither the Russian military nor the public associated the event of February 15 with a nuclear attack. For this we can all breathe easier.\nResponse from the scientific community was quick. Apparently Facebook provided the first information. Paul Chodas of the NASA/JPL NEO Program Office said that Feb 15 \u201cwas a most memorable day ever here in the NEO Program Office, and I doubt I\u2019ll ever see another one like it.\u201d Many residents of Chelyabinsk began posting YouTube videos within an hour after the event. In less than a day, the cause of the explosion was identified as the stratospheric disintegration of an incoming rocky object. The initial Russian news reports speculated that the asteroid was only a few meters in diameter and the energy was only a few tens of kilotons. However, analysis by Peter Brown (University of Western Ontario) of data from a worldwide network of atmospheric pressure sensors and seismic stations quickly established the energy of the explosion as between 300 and 500 kilotons. The response from the U.S orbital monitoring system was also remarkably fast. Three days after the event they released the exact time and location, with measurements of the bolide track and its altitude (about 23 km) and velocity (more than 18 km/s) at peak brightness.\nA curious coincidence is that February 15 was also the date of the closest passage by Earth of a 30-40m asteroid 2012 DA14. It flew just 18,000 km above the Earth\u2019s surface. Many press stories suggested that the two objects were traveling together in space or were somehow related. However, several lines of evidence indicate that the two events were not related. The orbits were very different, with DA14 in a highly evolved orbit near the orbit of the Earth, while the bolide came from the inner edge of the asteroid belt. Further, 2012 DA14 approached the Earth from an extremely southerly direction, while Chelyabinsk asteroid approached from the east.\nA number of scientists as well as meteorite dealers are busy collecting recovered fragments. The proposed name is the Chebarkul meteorite, named for the lake near the center of the impact area. It will be interesting to see what these meteorites will tell us about the Chelyabinsk bolide.\nA special session on the Chelyabinsk event and its implications for Planetary Defense will be held at 7:00 pm on Sunday April 14 at the High Country Conference Center in Flagstaff, the site of the 2013 IAA Planetary Defense Conference that begins the next day. David Morrison is the chief organizer of the special Chelyabinsk session, which is open to the public. Others on the Organizing Committee are Mark Boslough, Clark Chapman, and Alan Harris. Morrison invites individuals with short contributed papers and/or posters relevant to the topic to contact him at david.morrison@nasa.gov.\nA hearing on the subject of planetary defense is planned in the U.S. House of Representatives on March 19.\nA complete file of previous NEO News posts can be found at http://impact.arc.nasa.gov\nNY Times article from Feb 16\nEarly FAQ posted by the B612 Foundation\nEarly collection of Russian videos\nCompilation of videos of the shock wave hitting Chelyabinsk\nSource: NLSI",

        "raw_content": "THURSDAY, Jan. 31, 2019 (American Heart Association) -- Overexertion with a snow shovel isn't the only cardiovascular risk during the winter.\nWhen temperatures go down, the incidence of stroke -- the country's fifth-leading cause of death -- appears to go up.\n\"There have been a number of studies that have confirmed this in different parts of the world,\" said Dr. Daniel Lackland, a professor of epidemiology and neurology at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. \"The next question is why?\"\n\"There's not one good answer,\" said Dr. Judith Lichtman, chair of the Department of Chronic Disease Epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health in New Haven, Connecticut. \"There is definitely something about the winter months and stroke. So what do we do about it?\"\nLichtman, who led the 2016 U.S. study and has further research underway, said \"the challenge of the next round of studies is to isolate and understand the various components so we can be more specific about prevention.\"\nThere's no shortage of conjecture about why cold weather and strokes may be linked. Lackland said cold temperatures can constrict blood vessels, which raises blood pressure. It also can thicken the blood, which can lead to clots. In the Northern Hemisphere, cold months include the holiday season, which can mean stress and unhealthy habits like eating and drinking too much.\n\"I don't think cold weather is completely independent of other risk factors,\" she said.\nLackland agreed, saying people need to understand strokes are more prevalent in colder temperatures. \"But you can't just think, 'I'll wear a coat when I go outside.' You need to recognize you have an increased risk in cold temperatures and lower your other risk factors.\"\n\"You can't do anything about the temperature,\" Lackland said. \"But you can be more diligent to get your blood pressure under control. You can quit smoking. You can get more exercise if you're overweight.\"\nStatistics show we can't just blame the weather. Stroke mortality rates in the U.S. are highest in the Southeast, which is warmer than much of the rest of the country, but where people tend to exercise less, have higher rates of obesity and smoke more.\n\"It's clearly not just the temperature,\" Lackland said.",

A global revolution is taking place in healthcare, life sciences and the food and beverage industry with applications including treatment of anxiety and sleep disorders, pain management, drug delivery and food supplements.\nThe global landscape is changing so rapidly that in some instances, cannabis is now taking on traditional healthcare at par. Troy Dayton, CEO and Founder of the Arcview Group, told Investor Ideas at the recently held Arcview Investor Forum in Vancouver B.C., \u201cWhat\u2019s happening in Germany is very interesting. They are going to have medical cannabis covered by insurance. Cannabis is actually going to be on the same playing field as pharmaceuticals.\u201d\nOne Canadian stock ready to capitalize on that is Aphria Inc. (Quote). In May, Aphria announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Nuuvera Deutschland GmbH acquired a 25.1% interest in Berlin-based Sch\u00f6neberg Hospital (\u201cSch\u00f6neberg\u201d or the \u201cHospital\u201d). The acquisition facilitates Deutschland\u2019s long-term strategy to educate German physicians and patients and advance evidence that supports the effectiveness of medical cannabinoids. It is also the first step in Deutschland\u2019s plans to build and operate pain treatment centers throughout Germany. The acquisition is valued at \u20ac1.2 million.\n\u201cWith our partnership with Sch\u00f6neberg, we are laying the groundwork to be at the forefront of medical services,\u201d said Hendrik Knopp, Managing Director of Deutschland. \u201cWe are focused on bringing a patient-centric approach to medical cannabis in Germany, improving awareness and education of the therapeutic properties of medical cannabis among doctors and patients.\u201d\n\u201cThe German market is among the most attractive opportunities for medical cannabis in the world, and this deal is an important step towards furthering Deutschland\u2019s presence in the country,\u201d said Vic Neufeld, CEO of Aphria. \u201cLike the clinic model in the Canadian market, these pain treatment centers will serve an invaluable purpose in supporting and educating patients, physicians and the German public in the treatment of pain, including, among other treatments, through the use of medical cannabis. We are continuing to advance our international strategic plans with investments such as this that lay the foundation for long-term sustained growth in every market in which we operate.\u201d\nFull news: https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/aphrias-german-subsidiary-nuuvera-deutschland-120000511.html\nAnother Canadian company entering the sector has its origins in natural remedies in healthcare and life sciences, EVITRADE Health Systems Corp. (CSE:EVA) (OTCQB:AXHLF).\n(http://www.evahealthsystems.com/)\nAccording to their website: \u201cThe Company is investigating the health effects of various natural remedies on the health of consumers either alone or in conjunction with other elements. In focus are various plant-based products that are targeted to relieve symptoms such as anxiety, sleeplessness, chronic inflammation, fatigue and high cholesterol. Initial projects will include Astaxanthin, Spirulina and eventually, Cannabinoids.\u201d\nLooking forward, the Company sees additional potential uses for cannabinoids to include addiction treatment, anti-inflammatory treatment and epilepsy.\nOn May 30, 2018, EVITRADE (CSE:EVA) (OTCQB:AXHLF) announced that it had signed a revised Letter of Intent with Cantech Molecular Research Inc. The soon-to-be acquired Cantech and/or Cantech Intellectual Property (\u201cIP\u201d) specializes in systems for the manufacture of highly advanced plants grown through selective breeding (also known as cultivars) and the production of quality pharmaceutical products for use in agriculture and medicine.\n\u201cWith this transaction, the Company is looking to add yet another valuable and versatile asset in its ongoing bid to become an influential player in the rapidly growing plant-based pharmaceutical business\u201d, said C.K. Cheung, CEO.\nFull news: https://webfiles.thecse.com/2018-05-30_EVA-Cantech_LOI_-_FINAL_CK.pdf?cSeonQGdbglpChHjn2lNLdy__8Lbr63Q\nOn May 31, 2018 EVITRADE announced that it made a voluntary ticker symbol change application with FINRA for the Company\u2019s quotation on the OTC Markets OTCQB\u00ae Venture Market. The symbol is expected to better reflect the corporate name and its new image. The Company also recently launched a new website to reflect its expansion in the medical technology, health and life sciences markets.\nEVITRADE continued to offer some insight as to where it is focussing with the announcement on June 11, 2018; \u201cEVITRADE To Bring Blockchain Technology to the Hemp Industry\u201d. The Company has signed a Letter of Intent with Veri-Medical Systems Inc. (\u201cVerimed\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) to potentially acquire the Company which has created a blockchain based \u201cseed-to-sale\u201d protocol focussed on enhancing the integrity of the sale of Hemp based products such as cannabidiol (\u201cCBD\u201d).\nCannabis and cannabinoids also offer a new approach to drug delivery and a Kelowna based company, Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (Quote), has developed and out-licensed its disruptive delivery technology that promotes healthier ingestion methods, lower overall dosing and higher effectiveness of lipophilic active molecules.\nOn May 31, 2018, Lexaria announced that, subject to ongoing legal and tax analysis, it intends to create two wholly-owned subsidiaries that will respectively hold the intellectual property related to, in the case of the first subsidiary, the improved processing and combustion-free delivery of nicotine and nicotine analogs and, in the case of the second subsidiary, delivery of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (\u201cNSAIDs\u201d), phosphodiesterase (\u201cPDE5\u201d) inhibitors and other active pharmaceutical ingredients.\nThis proposed structure more suitably reflects the distinct customer bases and business applications for each subsidiary, thereby allowing the Company to focus its future research and consider financing structures and industry partnerships specifically optimized to each. It is expected that Lexaria\u2019s patented DehydraTECHTM technology will be utilized by both subsidiaries.\nLexaria recently announced lab test results related to delivery of nicotine through the gastrointestinal tract and superior nicotine absorption in animal blood plasma.\nLexaria\u2019s technology provides increases in intestinal absorption rates; more rapid delivery to the bloodstream; and important taste-masking benefits, for orally administered bioactive molecules including cannabinoids, vitamins, NSAIDs, PDE5 inhibitors, nicotine and other molecules.\nFull news: https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/lexaria-bioscience-corp-structures-nicotine-102500495.html\nNatural and organic food trends are on the rise globally; all you have to do is look at the success of Whole Foods, eventually bought out by Amazon. Hemp\u2019s history with food goes back to the origins of man and now has a resurgence \u2013 thanks to the global legalization trends and new technology.\nFor more than 12 years Hempco Food and Fiber Inc. (Quote) has been a trusted and respected pioneer, innovator and provider of premier hemp-based foods and hemp nutraceuticals. Aurora Cannabis Inc. (Quote) saw the value of the company and owns over 50% of the Company.\nHempco Food and Fiber recently announced its growth and expansion plans. The Company has signed a distribution agreement with Tree of Life, the United Kingdom\u2019s leading wholesale distributor of natural and organic products. Tree of Life serves more than 1,200 retailers in the UK and more than 30 countries worldwide. The agreement provides Hempco with significantly increased market reach through Tree of Life\u2019s large footprint and share of shelf space in the health food sector.\nThe relationship with Tree of Life was driven in part by the recognition of the strong momentum hemp products continue to experience in the health food market due to its beneficial properties, such as omega 3\u2019s and high plant-based protein content.\nThe new Planet Hemp Organic Hemp Seed Oil + CBD Food Supplement line was successfully launched at Europe\u2019s biggest Natural and Organic products tradeshow on April 22-23, 2018. The show, visited by ten thousand delegates, including distributors and retailers, was very successful for the Company, both in terms of raising visibility and in generating commercial traction. Reception of the new product line was positive, with new orders received.\nThe Planet Hemp Organic Hemp Seed Oil + CBD Food Supplement product line, available in Original, Mint and Orange, is the only product approved by the Vegan and Vegetarian Societies. This is a rapidly growing segment of the market, and this validation creates significant differentiating power for Hempco.\nFull news: https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/hempco-provides-operational-expansion-growth-135500467.html\nAbout Investorideas.com \u2013 News that Inspires Big Ideas\nInvestorideas.com is a meeting place for global investors, featuring news, stock directories, video, podcasts, company profiles, interviews and more in leading sectors.\nInvestorideas.com cannabis/marijuana and hemp news and investing content includes potcastsCM \u2013 podcasts featuring cannabis news and stocks to watch plus insight from thought leaders and experts.

Beatniks and Beyond\nWashington Square Winds, a New York-based woodwind quintet, was formed in 2009 by five classically trained musicians passionate about chamber music. Its mission is to seek out, perform, and commission new works, expanding the wind quintet repertoire. The ensemble strives to collaborate with composers of the present generation and cultivate appreciation for contemporary classical music in our communities.\nThis is exactly what we hoped to accomplish with our THEY'RE ALIVE! album. Our first professional album, THEY'RE ALIVE! features works by four living composers, all very diverse in sound and structure. The pieces were composed within the past three years and two were written just for us.\nIn its original series also called \u201cTHEY\u2019RE ALIVE!,\u201d dedicated to showcasing new works written exclusively by living composers, Washington Square Winds provides opportunities for composers to hear their own music performed live and exposes audiences to music composed during their lifetime. Premieres have included Rex Isenberg\u2019s The People\u2019s Park and Enrico Arcaro\u2019s Monograph, which were composed specifically for the ensemble, as well as Charley Gerard\u2019s Hangin\u2019 Out, Max Orland\u2019s Dogfight, Nicholas Hall\u2019s Whirlwind, and Dean Rosenthal\u2019s I Think So, Too, which he arranged for the ensemble.\nIn addition to focusing on compositions and composers from their generation, Washington Square Winds takes an active role in working with the next generation of musicians. In the 2011/2012 academic year, the ensemble volunteered as the Woodwind Quintet in Residence at the Third Street Music School Settlement, where they attended weekly Orchestra rehearsals, dress rehearsals, and performances, acting as mentors and role models for the students. The quintet also recently co-created an interactive children\u2019s show based on Sergei Prokofiev\u2019s Peter and the Wolf, which includes a puppeteer, narrator, and costumes for the musicians.\nAfter a competitive audition process, Washington Square Winds was chosen to become part of \u201cMusic Under New York (MUNY),\u201d a select group of ensembles given the privilege to perform in the city\u2019s subway systems. They play in stations such as Grand Central, Times Square, Columbus Circle, and Penn Station, hoping to reach as many people as possible with their love of chamber music. The quintet has performed at various venues in New York City, such as Spectrum, Caff\u00e9 Vivaldi, Cornelia Street Caf\u00e9, The New Museum, Lenox Hill Settlement House, LIC Bar, and Googie\u2019s Lounge above The Living Room, as well as in New Jersey and Long Island, but their favorite place to perform is in their namesake, Washington Square Park.",

One of two ways: Either as a consultant/advisor or as the Operations Manager for your staff.\nConsultant/Advisor: This is perfect when you\u2019re not ready to have someone do the work for you, but you want/need to focus your attention on operations. I work with you to design a plan that you can implement right away, with your existing team (even if you\u2019re a team of one!)\nDirector of Operations: You\u2019re growing and you know you need to focus on operations, but you don\u2019t have time to yourself. I\u2019ll work with you and your team to create, manage and streamline your processes, systems and people at both strategic and tactical levels. While this is a critical role on your team, it\u2019s also a role that can have great impact even on a very a part-time basis.\nI am very selective about clients I work with.

Still, why travel if you can\u2019t bring back a tale or two? The creepy crawliest night\u2019s sleep of my life\u2026\nThat\u2019s a 4-person sleeper cabin up there. It\u2019s, um, cosy. There are no ladders to the top bunks, so you\u2019ve got to MacGyver your way up using the random little footholds (one to the left of the door). Our guide told us not to trust the food onboard, so we got takeaways delivered to the station (highly recommend this) and bought snacks and beer too. There\u2019s a tiny table in the middle (where the water bottle etc are) and there is a plug point under it. Reading lights. Slightly stained sheets\u2026 take a sleeping liner like I did (thanks Hoang Anh!) and have a beer or two. Don\u2019t forget loo roll (the loos will go a bit Glastonbury in the middle of the night, but they\u2019ll get cleaned up at some point, hopefully), hand sanitiser, baby wipes (you won\u2019t be having a shower), plenty of bottled water\u2026 and have a beer. Seriously. Why?\nCockroaches, people. Running up the walls. By your bed. By your FACE. Have a beer and it\u2019ll help ya sleep. Probably.\nCome morning, though, the scenery rushing past the window just outside your cabin door (the corridor becomes a greyed-out, oddly-wakeful-for-lack-of-sleep, viewing gallery from around 6am) makes you realise why you got the train and not the plane. Paddy fields, towns, grand tombs at odds with the rural surroundings\u2026 they jostle against each other, repeating in threes, the workers barefoot and up to their knees in watery field\u2026 you get the feeling that it\u2019s been this way forever. In a strange way, that morning was one of my favourite of the trip, despite being knackered, unwashed and possibly infested with cockroaches. There\u2019s nothing like relief coupled with quiet contemplation.\nAlso, this breakfast at the hotel in Hue did a lot to help:\nPrevious Post Cheeky tourist at Hue\u2019s Imperial Citadel, Vietnam\nNext Post On the radiooooooooooo",

        "raw_content": "World Book Day: My 5 and Why\nEvery month I get a box of books and leave them at a local bus stop with a HELP YOURSELF note. Amazing how they always go. #WorldBookDay\n\u2014 Irvine Welsh (@IrvineWelsh) March 5, 2015\nHere\u2019s my top 5 books that I read in the past year\u2026\n1) Unaccustomed Earth, Jhumpa Lahiri: The Hema and Kaushik trilogy at the end of this short story collection is a multi-perspective love story that has more than its fair share of grief. I\u2019ve re-read it a few times already as I still can\u2019t accept the haunting ending. Every time Lahiri writes something new, it\u2019s my favourite thing by her.\n2) Wild, Cheryl Strayed: I\u2019m a long-time fan of Strayed\u2019s pseudonymous agony aunt columns, Dear Sugar, which have been featured on The Rumpus since 2010. As Sugar, she gave us stunningly-written glimpses into her chaotic early life, her battle with bereavement and her attitude towards loving. What a joy to be able to read the uninterrupted story of her life and all the events that made her. She also coined the phrase, \u2018Write like a motherfucker\u2018, which is the only writing advice that there can be.\n3) The Heights of Machu Picchu, Pablo Neruda: But of course I took this slim volume of poetry to Peru! Neruda\u2019s intricately-detailed metaphors and hints at romance give way to a war-cry on behalf of the slaves who built this \u201cpermanence of stone and language.\u201d As he puts it, \u201cI come to speak for your dead mouths,\u201d bringing Machu Picchu\u2019s fabled past alive in a way that no tour guide could ever match.\n4) The Palm Leaf Fan & other stories, Kwai-Yun Li: My parents grew up in mid-20th century Calcutta (as it was then), a time and a place where Chinese food was revered as gourmet. Yet the Chinese people of the city (living in India\u2019s only Chinatown) were at best invisible, and at worst, discriminated against. This collection gives them \u2013 particularly the women, doubly-oppressed \u2013 a voice.\n5) Into the Woods, John Yorke: In a sweet bid to make a writer of me, a school friend loaned me this book over Christmas. Yorke, the creator of the BBC Writers\u2019 Academy, looks at how structure is essential to storytelling, telling some great stories himself along the way.

        "raw_content": "Physiology Honours C - PHSI4013\nAfter completing the requirements for award of a Bachelor of Medical Sciences or Bachelor of Science a student who has majored in Physiology or related disciplines of medical science may be permitted to undertake a fourth honours year. This consists mainly of a research project carried out under the supervision of a member of the academic staff. A list of projects offered for the coming session will be provided on the Physiology website. Early in the course the student is required to write an extended essay based on the subject of their research, and will throughout the year attend timetabled honours sessions. Examination is mainly by thesis, with the student's performance in the laboratory and in the end-of-year public seminar being considered. Opportunities exist to gain teaching experience by casual employment as a demonstrator in undergradaute practical classes. To qualify for entry into these honours courses you need to meet the minimum requirements of the Faculty of Science and the discipline. All students need to apply to the discipline to be admitted to an honours year. Gaining entry into honours in Physiology is competitive - the standard you need to achieve must meet certain minimum requirements, but will also depend on the number and quality of other applicants in that year. Candidates are required to meet with the Honours coordinator before the end of semester two of the preceding year (Semester One for mid-year applicants), to discuss your intentions and lodge a completed expression of interest form prior to completing an application with the Faculty of Science. An expression of interest form can be downloaded from the Discipline website. A copy of a completed and signed expression of interest form is the only documentation you should submit as proof of contact with the Discipline. Only those applicants who have attached a completed expression of interest and have met with the honours coordinator before lodging their application with the Faculty of Science will be approved.\nThe program includes tutorials, and seminars.\nPHSI4012\nUnit of Study coordinator: A/Prof Stephen Assinder",

        "raw_content": "Stories behind the mask: writers and their names\n(FILES) This file photo taken on October 04, 2016 shows books by Italian writer Elena Ferrante in a bookstore in Rome. What have Emile Ajar, Stendhal, George Sand or Elena Ferrante in common? All are pen-names hiding the identity of some illustrious writers. Italian journalist Mario Baudino dedicates a book to these authors, in which he decrypts the use of the pseudonym in literature. GABRIEL BOUYS / AFP\nFrom George Eliot to John le Carre, writers reaching out for the disguise or anonymity offered by a pseudonym is nothing new in the literary world.\nBut the phenomenon has been put back in the spotlight by Italian publishing sensation Elena Ferrante\u2019s assiduous efforts to keep her real identity a secret, at a time when new reasons are emerging for publishing from behind a mask.\nFor Ferrante, who was reported last year to have been outed as Rome-based literary translator Anita Raja, anonymity was a choice; born of a desire to avoid the pitfalls of celebrity and a conviction that \u201cbooks, once written, have no need of their authors\u201d.\nSome of her predecessors did not have that luxury.\nAlberto Moravia, author of \u201cThe Woman of Rome\u201d and one of the greatest figures in 20th Century Italian literature, was born Alberto Pincherle.\nHe opted to drop his Jewish family name as part of his efforts to escape censorship and persecution at the hands of Benito Mussolini\u2019s 1922-1943 fascist regime.\nNatalia Ginzburg\u2019s first novel, published during the fascist period, appeared under the name of Alessandra Tornimparte and Giorgio Bassani became Giacomo Marchi for similar reasons, journalist Mario Baudino recounts in his recently published, \u201cLei non sa chi sono io\u201d (\u201cYou don\u2019t know who I am\u201d).\nThat was literally the case for the judges of France\u2019s top literary prize, the Goncourt, when, in 1975, they awarded it to Emile Ajar for \u201cThe Life Before Us\u201d, unaware that Ajar was actually a pseudonym for writer Romain Gary.\nThe latter had already won the prestigious award, in 1956 for \u201cThe Roots of Heaven\u201d, and, under the Goncourt\u2019s rules, was excluded from getting it again.\nReal-life spy\nGary got round that problem by getting a young cousin to pretend to be Ajar \u2014 a subterfuge that was only definitively revealed to the world with the publication of \u201cThe Life and Death of Emile Ajar\u201d, an essay written before the writer shot himself in his Paris flat in 1980.\nIt was not the only time Gary, a World War II pilot, a diplomat and filmmaker as well as writer, managed to hoodwink the literary establishment.\nCapable of writing equally well in French and English, he would translate his texts himself under other pseudonyms.\nHe even occasionally published as Romain Kacew, the name he was born with. \u201cI\u2019ve had a lot of fun. Goodbye and thanks,\u201d was how he signed off his posthumously published farewell note to the world.\n\u201cRomain Gary used pseudonyms partly out of his taste for provocation but also because he had the literary concept of the \u2018total novel\u2019 in which the author is a character in his own book,\u201d Baudino told AFP.\nGary was a case apart but the journalist found many recurring themes in the stories of writers and their alternative monickers.\nLe Carre was adopted when the real-life David Cornwell began writing his spy thrillers while still active in Britain\u2019s MI6 intelligence agency.\nAlgeria\u2019s Mohammed Moulessehoul, who began writing when he was an army officer, published under his wife\u2019s name Yasmina Khadra to avoid military censorship, only revealing his true identity when he moved to France.\n\u201cAnd there have been many writers who have been exposed like Ferrante,\u201d says Baudino.\nRejected manuscript\nStephen King, the American master of horror, was a famous example, having eventually been revealed as being the creative force behind the seven novels of a certain Richard Bachman.\nProdigiously productive, King adopted the pseudonym to sidestep his publisher\u2019s requirement that he release no more than one book per year under his own name.\nAnd he also wanted to know whether his success was down to his talent, or the good fortune of having got the breaks that made him an established name: he got a sort of answer when sales of the Bachman books surged following his unmasking.\nNobel literature prize winner Doris Lessing tried something similar when she gave her agent a work under the name Jane Somers: her own publisher rejected the manuscript.\n\u201cThe choice of a pseudonym is never completely random,\u201d said Baudino, explaining how Henri Beyle became the 19th Century French literary giant Stendhal to distance himself from his hated father.\nA few decades earlier, a similar desire to escape the clutches of family led a certain Francois-Marie Arouet to publish under the name Voltaire.\nA trend reflecting the prevailing sexism of the time saw many accomplished female writers publish their work under masculine names: George Eliot\u2019s real name was Mary Ann Evans, George Sand was Aurore Dupin and the Bronte sisters were first published as Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell.\nLately, partly because of female readers becoming more important to the market for new writing, there has been a trend towards gender neutral pen names.\nThriller writer Tom Knox (real name Sean Thomas) opted for SK Tremayne when he turned to family-based drama, while JK Rowling famously opted for initials on the Harry Potter books for fear her first name, Joanne, would put boys off reading them.\nElena FerranteGeorge EliotJohn le Carre",

        "raw_content": "\u201cHow dare they\u201d! Droylsden hits back as Stagecoach scraps 168 service\nResidents and local politicians in Droylsden are fighting back against Stagecoach\u2019s decision to scrap the 168 bus service after saying they feel \u2018abandoned\u2019 by the company.\nIt was announced at the start of the year that the bus company planned to cut the service and replace it with a re-routed 150 service to provide new links to the Trafford Centre.\nThe 7 and 231 services have also been affected by the changes, which are set to take place from this Sunday, January 27.\nBut angry locals soon lobbied their local politicians, with Angela Rayner MP and Droylsden councillors having been inundated with phone calls.\nAngela Rayner has written to Elisabeth Tasker, Managing Director at Stagecoach Manchester, calling for a consultation on the changes before the 168 service is cut.\nThe changes mean there will no longer be a bus service that runs to the terminus at the top of Greenside Lane, with the nearest stop now outside St Martin\u2019s Church on the junction with Sunnyside Road.\nResidents on the Clock House estate and surrounding streets, home to a lot of elderly people, say they now feel cut off from the rest of Droylsden.\nSheila Slater, 81, has lived on Clock House Avenue for 50 years. She uses the 168 daily to travel to Ashton, Droylsden and Openshaw but now says she won\u2019t be able to do so.\nShe said: \u201cMy first reaction when I heard the news was, \u2018How dare they!\u2019 To walk to Sunnyside Road to get the bus, I\u2019ll have to walk down Briarwood or Hawkstone Avenues, but I have to walk in the road as there are cars parked on the pavements.\n\u201cIt\u2019s alright for younger people but I\u2019m 81 and it\u2019s hard to carry my bags all that way. The walk is too much to do every day. If it\u2019s icy then I\u2019ve got no chance. And will we still get the gritter coming up here if it\u2019s no longer a bus route?\n\u201cIt\u2019s a no-win situation. It\u2019s like the estate has been abandoned.\u201d\nSheila says she would go around the estate with a petition if she had the energy, but an online petition \u2013 www.change.org/p/openshaw-community-save-the-168-bus \u2013 has already gathered over 200 signatures.\nAngela Rayner MP has written to Stagecoach, asking them to consult passengers.\nDroylsden West Councillor Ann Holland says that she and her colleagues are fighting Stagecoach\u2019s decision.\n\u201cWe have been inundated with phone calls,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to cause a lot of difficult to the elderly and disabled people living in the area, as well as people with young children, all for the sake of two minutes.\n\u201cIf they wanted to scrap the 168, they could have rerouted the 230 to include the terminus at the top of Greenside Lane but it seems to me that has been driven by profit.\n\u201cThere has been no public consultation. We just want a bus to go to the top of Greenside Lane.\u201d\nDroylsden East councillor, Laura Boyle, added: \u201cThe cutting of the 168 Stagecaoch service has been done without consultation with passengers and will isolate a whole community by a vital public bus service which, for some, is their only means of transport.\n\u201cThe residents of Droylsden East are being treated with contempt by the company. We don\u2019t need another service running along the New Road, where a very competitive 216- and further down a 231- already run.\n\u201cWith the introduction of a second tram at the end of January, this will cause further congestion on the already busy articulated route.\n\u201cThe people of Droylsden need a bus service to run through our town and our school children need means of getting to and from school. When Laurus Ryecroft is at full capacity, there will not be enough transport for those who need it.\n\u201cWe call upon Stagecoach to reverse their decision to withdraw the 168 and look again at making the service work for both our residents and the local community.\u201d\nA spokesperson for Stagecoach Manchester said: \u201cWe would like to reassure our customers who currently use the 168 service that from the 27th January the service will be replaced with new services 150 and 230, along with an enhanced service 7. These changes maintain the majority of direct links, though for some journeys customers may need to change between services. Transport for Greater Manchester will also provide a school service, 702, from Whalley Range to Wright Robinson college which follows the 168 route.\n\u201cDespite recently investing in service 168 to improve the frequency, there are still not enough people using the service to cover the cost of operating it, so these changes have been necessary to ensure the longer term sustainability of bus services in the area. The changes are not about cost cutting and all of the current staff and buses that we operate on service 168 are being reinvested back into the network. These changes provide people who live in this area with new direct links to key destinations for both employment and leisure such as Trafford Park and the intu Trafford Centre.\u201d\nSouth Korean students give thanks to war veterans\nRough sleeping in Tameside down for the first time in six years\nWe all did it the Wembley way\u2026\nDroylsden\u2019s winless run in 2018 continues",

        "title": "Wonderful Wild Mushrooms",
        "raw_content": "Wonderful Wild Mushrooms\nMushrooms are grown all around the world in various shapes, sizes, colors and flavors. There are a few that are poisonous, but some of them are extremely delicious and flavorsome.\nMost of us relate the word \"mushroom,\" with a pizza topping. But it means much more than that, and nowadays the word can refer to a host of different fungi, each of which has its own unique flavor and character. Many of these wild mushrooms are extremely expensive and not easily available in the market.\nThere is a wide variety of appearance, taste, and texture among all the species of edible mushrooms. They have a subtle and unique flavor, but they do not contain any calories or nutritional value. Although there are hundreds of varieties, only a few can be cultivated successfully. Many flavorful ones have to be \"hunted\" and cannot be cultivated, because they grow only in the forest. Forests throughout North America are filled with such mushrooms, but not many people know how to seek them out and appreciate them. There are only a few species that are poisonous, but they can be easily identified. The most popular ones are chanterelle, morel, cepe, and field. Other species that are popular with gourmet chefs include black and white truffles, oyster, and shiitake.\nThe typical white mushrooms that are commonly found on pizzas and in spinach salads, were first cultivated in the late 1600s, using horse manure, in abandoned quarries outside Paris. The ones we see today are their descendants, and they come in various forms. Brown crimini are related, but they are firmer and have a stronger flavor. Button mushrooms are small and have a deep flavor. Cultivated ones are best eaten when the skin connecting the stem to the cap is firm and intact.\nMorels can be found in abundance in Germany and France, but in North America they are available only in the grocery stores. However, morels grow in Georgia, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, New York, and most of the states in New England. All types of morels can be cooked and eaten broiled, saut\u00e9ed, stuffed, in casseroles, with meat, and egg recipes. They can also be frozen or dried.\nThe most popular mushroom in Japanese and Chinese cuisine is Shiittake. It is grown atop the stumps of oak trees, and is excellent for preparing salads or soups. Locally grown fresh shiitake are available in grocery stores too. European cooks prefer to have it saut\u00e9ed in butter alongside steaks or braised beef, but Chinese cooks like to have them stir fried. Japanese cook them tempura style, coated in batter, and deep-fried.\nOne of the most expensive delicacies in the country is the black truffle, which grows around the roots of the truffle oak. They cannot be cultivated and can only be grown in moderately humid climates. They grow about 20-30 cm below the surface of the ground, so they cannot be seen and must be hunted by specially trained dogs. Gourmet chefs use truffles in pates, puff pastry, scrambled eggs, various sauces, or simply saut\u00e9ed in butter with white wine. When purchased in upscale grocery stores, one pound black truffles can cost several hundred dollars. They are usually sold by the gram for only two months in the summer season.\nThey are usually very expensive, but their value as a gourmet delicacy is indisputable. The delicate nuance of flavor they give to sauces elevates the taste of an ordinary food to heavenly delights. People who hunt mushrooms happily spend those hours in the woods, because they are fully aware about the delicious rewards their efforts will bring them.\nPuffball Mushroom: Information and Recipes\nPuffball Mushroom Recipes\nPlant Diseases Caused by Fungi",

        "raw_content": "Pharmaceutical companies have a responsibility to develop prescription drugs that are safe for consumers. The makers of Xarelto, Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals, are defendants in several Xarelto lawsuits because of the alleged deffective and dangerous nature of the drug. If you or a loved one has experienced a severe bleeding occurrence after taking Xarelto, you may be entitled to take legal action with a Xarelto lawyer.\nXarelto was introduced in the United States market in July of 2011, and is part of a class of drugs called New Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs). This class of NOACs, which also includes Pradaxa and Eliquis, has been marketed as the next generation of blood-thinning drugs and has been prescribed to prevent pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, as well as strokes in patients suffering from atrial fibrillation, and for patients who had undergone knee and hip replacement procedures. The manufacturing company, Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals \u2013 a division of Johnson & Johnson \u2013 reported that approximately 130,000 prescriptions were written for Xarelto in the first three months of 2012 in the U.S. alone.\nHowever, Xarelto carries a significant risk of severe, and sometimes even fatal, internal bleeding \u2013 and there is no reversal agent available if serious bleeding occurs with Xarelto use. In 2013, the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reported receiving 680 serious adverse event reports from individuals who alleged to have suffered adverse events while taking Xarelto. That number quickly rose to more than 1,800 adverse events linked to Xarelto, the most common events were pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and hemorrhage. Hospitalization was reported in 891 of these events; 183 patients lost their lives.\nAs a result of many adverse event reports, the FDA required the makers of Xarelto to issue \u2018black box\u2019 warnings about the potential hazards of using Xarelto. The \u2018black box\u2019 warning is the most urgent type of warning that is issued by the FDA. This warning advised that Xarelto print advertisement was \u201cfalse or misleading because it minimizes the risks associated with Xarelto and makes a misleading claim\u201d regarding blood monitoring and \u201cno dosage adjustments.\u201d To date, more than 21,000 adverse events have been linked to Xarelto.\nThe reason Xarelto is so much more dangerous than other anticoagulants on the market, is that it causes uncontrollable bleeding that cannot be reversed. Other blood thinners can be controlled with Vitamin K, but Xarelto does not respond to Vitamin K. There is no antidote for excessive bleeding caused by taking Xarelto, leaving patients at a much greater risk of bleeding to death.\nCommonly reported side effects of Xarelto include:\nBloody coughs\nSeveral plaintiffs have filed lawsuits against the makers of Xarelto. They allege the drug caused cerebral hemorrhaging, gastrointestinal bleeding and fatalities. Due to the severe blood thinning effects of Xarelto, plaintiffs further claim:\nThe makers of Xarelto continued to market the drug as being safe after they found out it was not\nThe makers of Xarelto did not give doctors actions to take to assist patients who experienced excessive bleeding as a result of taking Xarelto\nThe makers of Xarelto are motivated by profits more than maintaining the safety of Xarelto\nConsumers were not warned by the makers of Xarelto about the dangers associated with taking the drug\nPharmaceutical companies must be held accountable for any action that causes harm and loss to consumers. It is the right of any Xarelto user who has been harmed to file a Xarelto lawsuit against the companies Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals. If you or a loved one have suffered as a result of taking Xarelto, you may be eligible to be compensated for pain, suffering, past/future medical bills, and funeral expenses.Filing a Xarelto lawsuit does not take away the pain you have suffered, but it can ease your financial and emotional burdens. If you have been harmed by Xarelto, you may be able to receive compensation.

        "title": "Firewatch: Game Review | TechniBuzz.com",
        "raw_content": "Firewatch: Game Review\nFirewatch is a super immersive first-person adventure and mystery game that was developed by Campo Santo. It was the developer\u2019s first game and had inspirations ranging from BioShock to The Walking Dead. The first title of Campo Santo today can be played on several platforms such as PC, Mac, Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.\nFirewatch is an electronic game of the first-person adventure genre developed by Campo Santo and published by Panic, Inc.\nStudio Panic\nDeveloper Campo Santo\nMultiplayer Players You do not have multiplayer\nPlatform Mac, Linux, Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC\nThe game is a very intense emotional journey. The story of the game is about losses and how we deal with problems. During the short campaign that may take about 4 to 6 hours, Firewatch will make you live in the shoes of Henry while he works a summer as a ranger.\nBefore embarking on the real game, you\u2019ll be introduced to Henry\u2019s past. This way of exposing the past of the character is very interesting and the possibility of choosing this story helps to create a closeness with Henry, in addition to creating a context for the story of the game.\nWhen you arrive at Shoshone National Park, you will meet Delilah through a walkie-talkie. She\u2019s your supervisor, and she\u2019ll be very friendly with Henry as the days go by. The dialogue with her is always done by the walkie-talkie and you have the freedom to choose what to talk about and when to talk to her. As the days go by, the story will start to change and take unexpected paths, but this evolution is done in a very subtle way and very faithful to the universe of the game.\nThe story is very linear and the dialogue options do not have much impact on the progress of things. In fact, the dialogues serve to make the experience more personal to the player because he can project his own personality into Henry. The whole game revolves around atmosphere and immersion as well as having a strong emotional footprint, so these dialogues end up having this function because the constant contact with the characters causes you to begin to develop a certain attachment to them.\nBoth the dialogues and the story itself are very well written. Few games can make you laugh, be cheerful, sad, tense and scared as Firewatch can.\nThe end of history divided the community. Many thought it was too anticlimactic because of the way the story goes, but many also thought it was excellent and in the right measure for what the game was bringing, that is, it really depends on the way each one played the game.\nWe can also say that some holes in history have created room for some conspiracy theories that are very well crafted. It is worth checking!\nIn terms of gameplay what we can say is that the game pleases. At first glance it looks like a big open world but the linearity of the story ends with this very fast dream. In fact, the biggest problems of the game come because of this and the fact that you can not jump or walk in places that are not related to the exact moment of history make the game is half caught in these directions. The exploration part is limited because you can not walk in multiple areas and you can not interact with various objects unless they are related to the story.\nAs part of the ambition proposal, the player is located in the world using a map and a compass. This adds a lot to the atmosphere of the game and immersion, but sometimes navigation is a bit frustrating and you end up losing yourself. Not that this is a problem. In fact, it means that the Campo Santo staff got it right. If you miss and miss the road and checking the map every 10 steps is something you would do in the real world if you were in a forest and it was not Bear Grylls. So they succeeded in creating this feeling of being half lost in an isolated world. But it\u2019s something to watch out for, if you\u2019re not so immersed in the game, it\u2019s very frustrating.\nThe art direction of the game is very good and Firewatch presents itself in a unique way. The graphics are peculiar, have a medium artistic footprint and a simple way, but at the same time well attentive to details. The game is beautiful, for sure, and it goes a long way toward creating the immersive environment that history needs. You may notice a concern for very specific things, such as the various books, sheets of paper, and even the map that Henry uses to locate himself in the park.\nThe creation of the Firewatch world is very curious. If on one hand you have a very heavy and sad history, on the other you have a vibrant and somewhat joyous environment. Despite this discrepancy that may sound weird, the end result is very good. The various environments lead the player as the story itself unfolds. So if on the one hand linearity is negative, on the other hand the game hits because although the game has a hard script to follow, it has allowed the art team to use the environments to amplify the emotions.\nSo as the various emotions and different situations are appearing in the story, the environment is changing to suit these situations. It\u2019s as if the outside world is a projection of what you and Henry are going through. This synchrony will be imperceptible to a lot of people, but it\u2019s that kind of subtlety that enhances the player\u2019s experience.\nPerhaps the only element missing in the various supersaturated and colorful environments of the game is the presence of animal life. The team that created the game chose to remove the vast majority of the animals from the park for some technical issues and this ended up doing a little lack.\nBut no problem because the beautiful and bright environments of the game steal the scene. Lighting almost always tends to a slightly yellowish orange that uses dark blue and green tones to contrast that look incredible. There will be few times when you will stop to enjoy the scenery.\nSonoplasty\nConcerning sound, most of the time we are between the near silence of a large forest inhabited by few animals and the voices of our main characters, Henry and Delilah.\nIn moments of forest silence, the sound of birds singing, the water falling from the waterfalls and the wind resounding in the leaves adds a very relaxing and cozy atmosphere. The audio quality of the forest is visible, with sounds very well produced and very close to reality. One criticism, however, is that when Henry is walking or running, he can not hear his steps. Other than that the atmosphere that the sound creates during the game is flawless.\nAlready in the moments in which we hear the conversation of the main personages, it is clear the quality with which the voiceovers are made. The artists who give voice to the characters of Firewatch can transmit anger, fear, passion, happiness, apathy, empathy \u2026 all the feelings consistent with the situations they seem to face. More than that, the audio quality of the characters is so well done that it will connect you to the characters, whether you love them or hate them.\nThe soundtrack, in turn, is not so present during the gameplay. It appears from time to time, usually in a moment of greater tension, very specific, but when it appears, it is providential. The songs are of an ambient character, without lyrics, with a percussion well demarcated in moments of tension, a mellow and calm melody in moments of happiness or tranquility and a mellow slightly more dense and melancholic in sentimental or reflective moments.\nAlthough short, Firewatch is a very fun and engaging game! Your plot will keep you interested in the game throughout the story. Although the story is very good during its development, the ending may not please everyone. But one thing is for sure, we Elucidario channel believe that story is really complex, very intriguing and worth to be played. In addition, the quality both graphics and sound are really a very strong point in the game, ensuring their immersion. Although, because of the amount of content offered in terms of playing time, the price is a bit salty, when the game goes on sale, it is definitely worth acquiring. So Firewatch is, yes, a game that deserves a try. And we like it very much!\nPosted in: Apps & Games, Reviews\tTagged: Firewatch, Firewatch game, Firewatch game review, Firewatch on pc, Firewatch px, Firewatch review\nPrevious Post: Battlerite: Game Review\nNext Post: Quantum Break: Game review",

        "title": "Development Mistakes That Can Destroy Your Mobile App - Tech Spikes",
        "raw_content": "HomeTechnologyDevelopment Mistakes That Can Destroy Your Mobile App\nSo you want to develop a mobile app? Of course you do because an app is a great addition to your business. With the help of an application, you can build your brand recognition and customer bases. After a while, the right app will allow you to grow and prosper like never before. The pertinent phrase, though, is the \u2018right app\u2019. Not every app is a good idea as you have to tailor it to your business. That is one mistake you can\u2019t afford to make, and here is a handful more.\nNot Considering The Platform\nWhere do you want your app to appear? IOS or Android or maybe even Microsoft? There are plenty of platform at your disposal, which isn\u2019t necessarily a benefit. The truth is that there are pros and cons to all of the above. So, you have to make an informed decision by factoring them into what you want from your app. For example, you might not like the fact that Microsoft is less of a brand name than the other two. What you can\u2019t do is make decisions based on generalizations. Please don\u2019t go with Apple because you think the App Store will make you more money. It might, but it isn\u2019t a sure thing until you study the data.\nThinking That Apps & Sites Are The Same\nWebsites and apps do have a lot of similarities, but they are not the same thing. If they were, it would be a lot easier to create an app. The truth is that apps have lots of little caveats that make them unique. And, you have to remember these when you design your application. The size, the interface, the accessibility are so very different on an app than on a desktop. Your app needs to be able accessible on the go as well as customizable with regards to things such as user data. If it isn\u2019t, it won\u2019t resonate with your users. The reason apps are so popular is due to the fact they are so different. You should also think like the consumer, for example, Bingo players might be looking for tips to win at mobile bingo, so consider this a good area to find new people to download and promote your app.\nBelieving That Your App Will Sell Alone\nYes, an app is a great marketing tool because millions of people search app stores on a daily basis. Still, that doesn\u2019t mean that a person will just download your app because it is in the Play Store. Apps only sell when they resonate with a customer, which is why you need do your bit when it comes to marketing. It is good to have a plan as the competition is fierce, and you need to wade through the mess. Plus, you should always target your audience to maximize download opportunities.\nNot Using Developers\nIt is possible to develop an app alone. But, it is better to develop one with the help of an expert. The simple fact is that you don\u2019t possess the expertise that a custom software development company possesses. And, why would you if you are a novice? There is nothing wrong with not having the skill \u2013 the mistake is to think that expertise isn\u2019t a factor. The odds are that you will make the app worse by developing it alone. You don\u2019t need to hire them, but you should try and pick their brains. Even if you only obtain a few pieces of information, it might be invaluable in the development process.\nIf you avoid these mistakes, your app will be much more effective.",

        "raw_content": "Do Solo-Practitioners Need to be HIPAA compliant?\nBehavioral health solo-practitioners often ask if they need to be HIPAA compliant. When considering a practice that might be much smaller in scale than major hospitals and health systems making headlines for data breaches, the question is an important one.\nThe answer is simple: YES, solo-practitioners do need to be HIPAA compliant.\nHIPAA regulation is very clear with its definitions about which entities are mandated to be compliant. A covered entity is any health care provider, health insurance company, or health care clearinghouse that collects protected health information (PHI). PHI is any demographic information that can be used to identify a patient. Examples of PHI include names, addresses, medical records, psychoanalytic notes, Social Security numbers, financial information, and full facial photos, to name a few.\nBecause solo-practitioners are considered covered entities, they necessarily must be HIPAA compliant in order to adhere to the law.\nBut what does HIPAA compliance entail for solo-practitioners? And how can HIPAA compliance actually improve your business as a solo-practitioner in the behavioral health space?\nHIPAA Compliance for Solo-Practitioners\nFor all covered entities, including solo-practitioners, the following HIPAA requirements must be met in order to be HIPAA compliant:\nIncident Management \u2013 If your practice has a data breach, you must have a process to document the breach and notify patients that their data has been compromised.\nThe Benefits of HIPAA Compliance\nHIPAA compliance for solo-practitioners in behavioral and telebehavioral health is a powerful differentiating factor against competitors, especially in the digital space. Patients are more educated than ever before about threats to their digitized health care data. Concerns surrounding data security have skyrocketed in recent months, considering the Equifax and Yahoo breaches that have affected over 3 billion people across the globe.\nHIPAA compliance proves to your patients that you have data security and privacy standards in place, which help mitigate against the affects of a serious data breach. With fines already totaling over $17.1 million in 2017 alone, the best defense solo-practitioners can implement is a total HIPAA compliance solution.\nhttps://telehealth.org/blog/hipaa-for-solo-practitioners\">",

With the increase in genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic information there is a growing need to understand the metabolic phenotype that these genes and proteins ultimately control. The aim of this course is to provide an overview of metabolomics and its applications in life sciences, clinical and environmental settings. Over 2 days we will introduce different techniques used to extract metabolites and analyse samples to collect metabolomic data (such as HPLC or GC-based MS and NMR), present how to analyse such data, how to identify metabolites using online databases and how to map the metabolomic data to metabolic pathways. The course content will predominantly be based on analysing samples from model plant species such as Arabidopsis thaliana but the procedures are transferable to all other organisms, including clinical and environmental settings.

        "raw_content": "01) Black Mirror\n02) Keep the Car Running\n03) Neon Bible\n05) Black Wave/Bad Vibrations\n06) Ocean of Noise\n07) The Well and the Lighthouse\n08) (Antichrist Television Blues)\n09) Windowsill\n10) No Cars Go\n11) My Body Is a Cage\nNeon Bible is the second studio album by Canadian indie rock band Arcade Fire. It was first released on March 5, 2007 in Europe and a day later in North America by Merge Records. Originally announced on December 16, 2006 through the band's website, the majority of the album was recorded at a church the band bought and renovated in Farnham, Quebec. The album is the first to feature drummer Jeremy Gara, and the first to include violinist Sarah Neufeld among the band's core line-up.\nNeon Bible became Arcade Fire's highest-charting album at the time, debuting on the Billboard 200 at number two, selling 92,000 copies in its first week and more than 400,000 to date. Being released within a month of similarly successful releases by The Shins (Wincing the Night Away) and Modest Mouse (We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank), Neon Bible was cited as an example of the popularization of indie rock. Critics gave the self-produced Neon Bible mostly favorable reviews, although with division over the album's sound. Publications like NME and IGN praised the album for its grandiose nature, while Rolling Stone and Uncut said that it resulted in a distant and overblown sound.\nFollowing the release of Funeral (2004), which had been recorded in an attic studio known as Hotel2Tango, Arcade Fire decided a permanent recording location was necessary. Following their tour in support of Funeral, the band bought the Petite \u00c9glise in Farnham, Quebec. Being used as a caf\u00e9 at the time of purchase, the Petite \u00c9glise had once been a church and a Masonic Temple. Once renovation of the church was complete, the band spent the latter half of 2006 recording a majority of the album there. Michael P\u00e4rt produced additional recordings in Budapest, recording the Budapest Film Orchestra and a military men's choir. Other sessions included one in New York, where the band recorded along the Hudson River to be near water.\nHaving produced most of the album themselves, the band decided to bring in someone else for the mixing. Tracks were sent to several well-known mixers/producers to experiment with and after deciding they liked Nick Launay's ideas best, the band invited him to their studio to work on the songs further. For a month Launay worked with the album's engineer and co-producer Marcus Strauss on the mixing of each song, with the band regularly driving up from Montreal to assess their progress. In an interview with HitQuarters, Launay described the mixing process as a \"playful thing\".\nBeginning work on Neon Bible immediately following a North American tour in support of the band's first album, Funeral, songwriter Win Butler, born in the United States but having lived in Canada for several years, said that he felt he was observing his homeland from an outsider's point of view. The album is rooted in Americana themes, with Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Presley being cited as influences.\nArcade Fire began recording with what would become \"Black Mirror\" and a reworking of the Arcade Fire EP song \"No Cars Go\" as their starting point. Once the title of the album was decided upon, the band was further inspired after they, according to Will Butler, \"watched a lot of TV preachers, get-rich-quick schemes on YouTube.\" The band was also attracted to using the ocean and television as central images for the album, with Win Butler saying the ocean imagery symbolizes a lack of control; of television, Butler stated that:\nPeople don't necessarily know that they're taking on a worldview, or absorbing ideas . It doesn't necessarily seem like , but it definitely does. I find it very easy to get sucked in. It starts to affect the way you see the world.\n\u2014\u2009Win Butler, Interview, Pitchfork\nThese ideas are reflected in the arrangement and composition of the album, which lead to a sound of dread and dissonance. The band used a number of less common instruments to achieve this sound; in addition to the orchestra and choir, Neon Bible features a hurdy-gurdy, mandolin, accordion and pipe organ. Win Butler has said that in conceiving the album he hoped for a more stripped-down sound but the songs demanded further instrumentation.\nThe song \"(Antichrist Television Blues)\" was originally titled \"Joe Simpson (Antichrist Television Blues)\" in reference to the father and manager of singers Jessica and Ashlee Simpson. Butler chose to remove Simpson's name from the title, keeping the subtitle parentheses intact. Butler would introduce \"(Antichrist Television Blues)\" during live performances as \"a song about what happens when fathers grow up to manage their daughters.\"\nThe artwork for the album is a photograph of a six-foot neon sign that the band commissioned for use while on tour. In the photograph used for the cover, the lighted Bible is caught in mid-flicker. Rolling Stone named the artwork one of the five best of the year. AOL Music cited the cover as an example of an artist \"keeping artwork alive.\" The artwork would go on to win Tracy Maurice and Fran\u00e7ois Miron the Juno Award for best CD/DVD Artwork Design of the Year. Frontman Win Butler stated in an interview that the album title is derived from him being particularly attracted to the image, not from the John Kennedy Toole novel The Neon Bible.\nIn 2005, Time Magazine put Arcade Fire on its cover, beneath the banner headline: \"Canada's Most Intriguing Rock Band\". It's tempting to call that the most underwhelming use of a superlative since Princes Harry and William were dubbed the best-looking members of the royal family, but Time's headline writer had a point. There is something oddly intriguing about the Montreal-based sextet, with their onstage costumes and penchant for performing unamplified in the middle of the audience - an aura of the unknown that seems all the more remarkable given the current desperate shortage of mystique in rock music. A peculiar combination of technology and nosiness has done for it. It's hard to build a romantic myth around rock stars who insist on laying the most humdrum aspects of their life bare in blogs packed with petty grievances: would Iggy Pop have seemed such a heroic figure if, after every Stooges gig, he'd picked the broken glass from his chest, mopped up the blood, put his penis away and hurried home to type 450 words indignantly protesting about the lack of skimmed milk backstage and how the press always sensationalise everything?\nIt's a world from which Arcade Fire have opted out. Most members of the band decline to be interviewed at all. Frontman Win Butler acquiesces only occasionally, and when he does, the results lead you to fear he may be waging a lonely war against media intrusion that involves trying to bore the world's journalists to death, one by one. One section of their website is tantalizingly titled Personal Secrets. Click on it, and you discover that one member has posted, without explanation, three blurred pictures of himself trying out various sit-on lawnmowers.\nIf anything, Arcade Fire's second album seems even more shrouded in mystery than their debut, 2004's 500,000-selling Funeral. Then, Butler sketched in a few autobiographical details to clarify its interest in power cuts, ice storms and Haitian dictator Baby Doc Duvalier; this time, he's been less forthcoming. But if specifics are thin on the ground, you hardly need anyone to point out its overall preoccupation. The first intimation of coming Armageddon arrives fewer than 90 seconds in and Neon Bible is still waving its End is Nigh placard as it draws to a close. Every song is replete with dread, nameless or otherwise: you're never far away from a rising tide or a grim prognosis or persons unknown kicking in your door in the dead of night. The sources of the apocalyptic disquiet are diverse - Windowsill manages to finger both \"a holy war\", and, more originally, MTV - but the end result never varies: \"a time is coming - all words will lose their meaning\", \"not much chance of survival\", \"nothing lasts forever\".\nNor does there seem much chance of the end of days being enlivened by the reappearance of a Messiah. The Christian figures on the album are subject to mockery. Building Downtown (Antichrist Television Blues) scornfully depicts a God-fearing father who seems to believe he can escape the horrors of the post-9/11 world by pushing his teenage daughter into showbusiness. Intervention is musically breathtaking - it opens with a pipe organ playing a portentous fanfare that quickly resolves into a sort of garage-rock riff, then gradually builds into an utterly glorious climax - but it's fuelled by withering disgust at anyone claiming God is on their side.\nIntervention is perhaps the prime example of Neon Bible's masterstroke, which is to set all this doom-mongering to joyously uplifting music. There are soaring string arrangements, beautiful backing vocal harmonies, harps and French horns, great welling choruses and, perhaps more surprisingly, thwacking, propulsive rhythms. It's hard to think of another album that rocks in such an epic manner without sounding completely ridiculous. The effect is of a kind of triumphant gloom. The music implies you should be throwing a party at exactly the same time as the lyrics suggest you should be hiding under the table with your jumper pulled over your head. Throughout, it's difficult to work out what the Arcade Fire might have been listening to: a rare and satisfying sensation in 2007, when virtually everything sounds a bit like something else. The album's originality carries you through the odd moment when ambition outstrips ability, not least the closing My Body is a Cage, which rather overdoes the church organ in service of a lyric that sails perilously close to the perennially disheartening topic of how terrible it is being in a successful rock band.\nBut that's a rare misstep on an otherwise remarkable piece of work that at times seems magical. An album this mired in fathomless darkness shouldn't sound so dazzling, but it does. Like the band who made it, Neon Bible is a thrilling enigma.\nSOURCE: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2007/mar/02/popandrock.shopping",

        "raw_content": "Home Columnist Alberta Quarcoopome Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and their influence in banks\nPolitically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and their influence in banks\n\u2018Refusing a business relationship with a PEP simply based on the determination that the client is a PEP is contrary to the letter and spirit of the LAW\u2019.\nDear readers, my last three articles have tried to look at how each bank stakeholder can contribute toward building a better banking system in various ways. I hope that the self-audit questions have been insightful and the \u2018all hands on deck\u2019 approach very practical to adopt.\nAfter several reflections of my banking life, which spanned almost three decades in state banks, I have a strong feeling that Ghanaians \u2013 and for that matter, bankers \u2013 must be wary of another powerful force that has a huge impact on our banking business \u2013 Politically Exposed Persons, or PEPS for short.\nWho is a Politically Exposed Person, or PEP?\nThis is a quote from Wikipedia: \u201cIn financial regulation, \u2018politically exposed person\u2019 (PEP) is a term describing someone who has been entrusted with a prominent public function. A PEP generally presents a higher risk for potential involvement in bribery and corruption by virtue of their position and the influence that they hold hold in banking circles.\u201d\nIn banking circles, the term PEP is typically used referring to individuals in the financial services industry who are or have been entrusted with prominent public functions, both in Ghana and foreign countries, and those associated with them. Examples of PEPs include:\nHeads of State or government; Ministers of State, Politicians, High ranking political party officials, Senior public officials, Senior Judicial officials, Senior military officials, Chief executives of state-owned companies/corporations, Family members or close associates of PEPs.\nTypes of PEPs\nThe following groups of PEPs have been identified:\nDomestic PEPs:\nIndividuals who are or have been entrusted domestically with prominent public functions: for example, Heads of State or of government, senior politicians, senior government officials, judicial or military officials, senior executives of state-owned corporations, important political party officials.\nForeign PEPs:\nIndividuals who are or have been entrusted with prominent public functions by a foreign country: for example, Heads of State or of government, senior politicians, senior government, judicial or military officials, senior executives of state-owned corporations, important political party officials.\nInternational Organisation PEPs:\nPersons who are or have been entrusted with a prominent function by an international organization refers to members of senior management or individuals who have been entrusted with equivalent functions; i.e. directors, deputy-directors and members of the board or equivalent functions.\nThese are individuals who are related to a PEP either directly or through marriage or similar (civil) forms of partnership.\nClose associates:\nThese are individuals who are closely connected to a PEP, either socially or professionally.\nDue to their position and influence, it is recognised that many PEPs are in positions which potentially can be abused for the purpose of committing money laundering (ML) offences and related predicate offences, including corruption and bribery, as well as conducting activity related to terrorist financing (TF).\nWhy am I concerned?\nNow that you know who a PEP is, you will be wondering what I am fussing about. After all, who does not want a powerful person as a customer? The first quote in this article strictly cautions bankers that \u201cRefusing a business relationship with a PEP simply based on the determination that the client is a PEP is contrary to the letter and spirit of the LAW\u201d.\nSee Also: Minimise Your Complaints \u2013 Tit-Bits for Bank Customers (1)\nAs human beings, there is a natural tendency to treat PEPs specially, due to the influence and power they have in society; but a banker\u2019s business decisions should be made professionally. As banking is the most regulated industry in the world, transactions and decisions ensure that they do not infringe any of the numerous laws and directives from government and the Regulator, Bank of Ghana. After all, there are strict guidelines to follow when accounts are opened for PEPs.\nThe Banker\u2019s Oath of Secrecy\nThe protection of customers\u2019 banking information that prohibits disclosure sometimes comes with mixed emotions. Many people know that bankers are not supposed to divulge banking secrets. However, the duty of confidentiality is not absolute. There are three exceptions to that duty: these are compulsion of law in the interest of the bank; in the public interest; and in the interest of the customer. As I watched events unfold in the recent bank crisis in Ghana, I was concerned that the blame-game had missed another player \u2013 the PEPs.\nThe influence of PEPs in some state banks over the last three decades has been very massive and should not be taken for granted. As we point our fingers at bankers and other stakeholders, the rest of the fingers are unknowingly pointing to that group, (PEPs). Sometimes the persons who shout \u201cmurder, treason, crucify them, jail them, etc.\u201d are silent contributors to the bank collapses.\nA professional banker never retires, and with my decades spent as a banker the duty of secrecy I swore in my former banking employments still stands. However, it hurts to see how PEPs continue to exert so much influence and yet sit quietly in their high places to condemn the bankers. Hmmm.\nBefore I go on, I want to remind readers that this column (THE RISK WATCH) of this newspaper is strictly an opinion page, and any resemblance in my references to any particular bank is purely coincidental. I will now look at the influence of PEPs in the last three decades of banking in Ghana.\nThe influence of PEPs in Banks \u2013 My Personal Observations\nAlthough the definition by Wikipedia is very simple, it speaks volumes of how such persons can make or break a bank. In practical terms, PEPs do not necessarily have to open an account in a bank to exert the influence they want.\nSometimes I wonder why the rate of turnover for CEOs and Boards of Directors in state banks is so high. Moreover, it seems as if the changes flow with changes in government and therefore continue to \u2018flow with the tides\u2019. A CEO in a state bank knows that a change in the ruling government under his tenure will definitely see him or her receive marching orders. I believe the various governments have their reasons for the changes, but there seems to be more questions than answers. Some of my observations over the last three decades are:\nThere was a time when PEPs (Ministers, Heads of public departments and Treasurers) could have a big say in determining which state funds could be channeled through your bank. Sometimes the condition for that was for the bank to grant loans at preferential rates to their connected companies, family and associates. This is fine only if the businesses are feasible and the operators reliable; but in many cases, they are not. Repayment becomes a big problem for the banks. \u201cNa who cause am?\u201d\nThe CEOs seem to continue repeating the mistakes of their predecessors.\nSome CEOs seem not to be able to say \u201cno\u201d to the demands of Ministers of State, Members of Parliament and prominent government or party gurus. I will not leave out big guns at the central bank. Its no joke, because I am a witness to some.\nWhy do CEOs and Boards of Directors of some state banks seem to \u2018shut their eyes to the obvious\u2019 and are afraid of being given their marching orders?\nIt seems that some members of parliament develop a penchant for changing their lifestyles, and do not mind taking loans far above their ability to repay. It becomes a desperate situation during election years when there are indications of inability to maintain their seats.\nSee Also: Welcome Home, Kweku Adoboli \u2026bounce back stronger\nWhat happens? Another round of loans to facilitate their campaigns for re-election!! Woe betide your bank if the election results do not go in the MP\u2019s favour! The loan never gets repaid. There is no longer a regular source of income to fund repayment. Some are hiding in their constituencies, away from their bankers in Accra. Dear bankers, please be careful not to repeat these mistakes.\nThe close associates and family of PEPs sometimes exert unnecessary influence on bankers. Some even use the names of PEPs to facilitate money laundering into the country. Can you imagine that some Compliance Officers in banks are called by some PEPs to release funds from suspicious transactions, even when suspicious transaction reports have been sent to the Financial Intelligence Center?\nTo conclude, I wish to reiterate the fact that one being a PEP does not make the person a bad customer. After all, it is good to have rich and powerful people as customers. It is the PEP exerting unwarranted influence in a banker\u2019s decision-making that sometimes makes the bank vulnerable. A look at the detailed list of non-performing accounts at some banks will surely show PEPs and their associates. However, my lips are sealed due to my everlasting oath of secrecy!\nI pray that any PEP, their family members and associates who have bank accounts will do genuine business and continue operating the accounts so well that \u2013 even after the PEP has long retired \u2013 you will still enjoy a great relationship with your bankers.\nRemember, the motto of the Chartered Institute of Bankers, Ghana is still Honesty and Integrity!!\nAlberta Quarcoopome is a Fellow of the Institute of Bankers and CEO of ALKAN Business Consult Ltd.

        "raw_content": "By Ken Ritter | The Associated Press 22:54, 11 Feb 2019 Print T + T -\nNorth Las Vegas Police Department Chief Pamela Ojeda attends a press conference to discuss new discoveries in the case of the disappearance of the 3-year-old Francillon Pierre, who vanished in 1986, at the North Las Vegas Detective Bureau in North Las Vegas, Monday, Feb. (Rachel Aston/Las Vegas Review-Journal via AP)\nPiecing together torn-up jailhouse letters found in dormant files involving the 1986 disappearance of a 3-year-old boy in Nevada yielded a possible confession that led to the arrest of his mother in Florida on a murder warrant, authorities said Monday.\n\u201cWhat happened was totally unintentional, I\u2019m sorry, you know that,\u201d Fleming wrote to her then-fiance, Lee Luster, while the two were jailed for several months in 1987 for obstructing the investigation, according to a police affidavit submitted to obtain a Dec. 13 warrant for Fleming\u2019s arrest.\nFleming, 60, was arrested Jan. 29 at her marketing job in Boca Raton, Florida. Police said she was being transferred in custody to Nevada to face a murder charge.\nThe child\u2019s body hasn\u2019t been found, but Ojeda and the lead detective in the case, Steven Wiese, said new witness accounts also implicate Fleming in his death.\n\u201cWe\u2019d love to have the body of Francillon,\u201d Wiese said, \u201cor DNA evidence that proves something. That\u2019s not what this case is. This is a case of a lot of little things that, put together, give us the knowledge that Amy Fleming was involved in the homicide of her child.\u201d\nTwo witnesses whose names were blacked out in the affidavit told police they overheard Luster tell a woman in a jailhouse meeting area that \u201c\u2018Amy had killed the baby.'\u201d\nIn another letter, Fleming told Luster, \u201cYou\u2019re the only one I have left to care about. My family is not there, Yo is not there, I cannot face my friends for fear they will be implicated.\u201d\nThe couple told police the boy, nicknamed Yo-Yo, wandered away from them at a swap meet.\nBut investigators found no one who saw the child at the swap meet, according to the 18-page affidavit. Neighbors in the apartment complex where the couple lived said they had not seen the boy with Fleming and Lester for more than a week.\nFleming, was 28 at the time and divorced from Pierre\u2019s father, who lived in Haiti and was cleared as a suspect in 1986.\nShe was living with and later married Luster, and the couple moved to Florida in 1987, police said.\nFleming and Luster had been accused months before the boy\u2019s disappearance of physically abusing him. They pleaded guilty in that case after his death and were sentenced to probation.\nOjeda said investigators didn\u2019t have enough evidence at the time to seek a murder charge.\nLuster, now 62, has not been charged with a crime.\nLuster told investigators that several days before reporting the boy\u2019s disappearance, he took him camping for a couple of days at an unspecified desert location near the vast Lake Mead reservoir east of Las Vegas on the Colorado River.\n\u201cAlthough we\u2019re saddened today that we could not bring you good news that we found Pierre alive and well, we are fortunate that we can bring some closure to those affected by this 32-year-old cold case,\u201d the police chief said.\nThis undated photo provided by the Palm Beach County Sheriff\u2019s Office shows Amy Elizabeth Fleming, 60, of Dania, Fla.

Special Conditions No. 25-606-SC] Special Conditions: Associated Air Center, Boeing Model 747-8 Airplane; Shoulder-Belt Airbags for Side-Facing Seats AGENCY:\nThese special conditions are issued for the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane. This airplane, as modified by Associated Air Center, will have novel or unusual design features associated with side-facing seats and airbag-equipped shoulder belts for these side-facing seats. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for these design features. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.\nThe effective date of these special conditions is November 20, 2015. We must receive your comments by January 4, 2016.\nJayson Claar, Airframe and Cabin Safety, ANM-115, Transport Airplane Directorate, Aircraft Certification Service, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton, Washington 98057-3356; telephone 425-227-2194; facsimile 425-227-1149.\nThe FAA has determined that notice of, and opportunity for prior public comment on, these special conditions are impracticable because these procedures would significantly delay issuance of the design approval and thus delivery of the affected airplane.\nOn March 1, 2013, Associated Air Center applied for a supplemental type certificate, project no. AAC-12-04-ODA, for side-facing seats with airbag-equipped shoulder belts to be installed in Boeing Model 747-8 airplanes.\nThe Boeing Model 747-8 airplane, as modified by Associated Air Center, includes a head-of-state interior with a maximum passenger-seating capacity of 112. Twelve of the passenger-seating positions will be single-passenger, side-facing seats, each of which will be outfitted with an airbag system in the shoulder belts.\nUnder the provisions of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 21.101, Associated Air Center must show that the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane, as changed, continues to meet the applicable provisions of the regulations incorporated by reference in type certificate no. A20WE or the applicable regulations in effect on the date of application for the change. The regulations incorporated by reference in the type certificate are commonly referred to as the \u201coriginal type certification basis.\u201d The regulations incorporated by reference in type certificate no. A20WE are as follows:\nThe certification basis for areas changed or affected by the Associated Air Center STC is 14 CFR part 25, as amended by Amendment 25-1 through Amendment 25-120, with exceptions permitted by \u00a7\u200921.101. The certification basis includes special conditions and exemptions that are not relevant to these proposed special conditions.\nIf the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness regulations (i.e., 14 CFR part 25) do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane, as modified by Associated Air Center, because of a novel or unusual design feature, special conditions are prescribed under the provisions of \u00a7\u200921.16.\nIn addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special conditions, the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane, as modified by Associated Air Center, must comply with the fuel-vent and exhaust-emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34 and the noise-certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36.\nThe Boeing Model 747-8 airplane, as modified by Associated Air Center, will incorporate the following novel or unusual design features:\nThese airplanes will have interior configurations with multiple-place side-facing seats and single-place side-facing seats that include airbag systems in the shoulder belts. Side-facing seats are considered a novel or unusual design for transport-category airplanes that include Amendment 25-64 in their certification basis, and were not anticipated when those airworthiness standards were issued. Therefore, the existing regulations do not provide adequate or appropriate safety standards for occupants of side-facing seats. The airbag systems in the shoulder belts on side-facing seats are designed to limit occupant forward excursion in the event of an accident. These airbag systems are novel or unusual for commercial aviation.\nThe FAA has been conducting research to develop an acceptable method of compliance with \u00a7\u200925.785(b) for side-facing seat installations. That research has identified additional injury considerations and evaluation criteria. See published report DOT/FAA/AR-09/41, July 2011.\nBefore this research, the FAA had been granting exemptions for the multiple-place side-facing seat installations because an adequate method of compliance was not available to produce an equivalent level of safety to that level of safety provided for the forward- and aft-facing seats. These exemptions were subject to many conditions that reflected the injury-evaluation criteria and mitigation strategies available at the time of the exemption issuance. The FAA has developed a methodology to address all fully side-facing seats (i.e., seats oriented in the airplane with the occupant facing 90 degrees to the direction of airplane travel) and is documenting those requirements in these special conditions. Some of the previous conditions issued for exemptions are still relevant and are included in these new special conditions. However, many of the conditions for exemption have been replaced by different criteria that reflect current research findings.\nThe FAA had been issuing special conditions to address single-place side-facing seats; however, application of the current research findings has allowed issuing special conditions that are applicable to all fully side-facing seats, both multiple-place and single-place.\nNeck-injury evaluation methods applicable to the most common side-facing seat configurations were identified during recent FAA research. The scope of that research, however, did not include deriving specific injury criteria for all possible loading scenarios that could occur to occupants of fully side-facing seats. To limit the injury risk in those cases, these special conditions provide conservative injury-evaluation means that are derived from past practice and applicable scientific literature.\nSerious leg injuries, such as femur fractures, can occur in aviation side-facing seats that could threaten the occupants' lives directly or reduce their ability to evacuate. Limiting upper-leg axial rotation to a conservative limit of 35 degrees (approximately the 50 percentile range of motion) should also limit the risk of serious leg injuries. It is believed that the angle of rotation can be determined by observing lower-leg flailing in typical high-speed video of the dynamic tests. This requirement complies with the intent of the \u00a7\u200925.562 (b)(6) injury criteria in preventing serious leg injury.\nThe requirement to provide support for the pelvis, upper arm, chest, and head contained in previous special conditions for single-place side-facing seats has been replaced in the new special conditions applicable to all fully side-facing seats with requirements for neck-injury evaluation, leg-flail limits, pelvis-excursion limits, head-excursion limits, and torso lateral-bending limits that directly assess the effectiveness of the support provided by the seat and restraint system.\nTo protect occupants in aft-facing seats, those seats must have sufficient height and stiffness to support occupants' heads and spines. Providing this support is intended to reduce spinal injuries when occupant inertial forces cause their heads and spines to load against the seat backs. If, during a side-facing-seat dynamic test, the flailing of the occupants causes their heads to translate beyond the planes of the seat backs, then this lack of support would not comply with the intent of the requirement to prevent spine injuries, and would not provide the same level of safety afforded occupants of forward- and aft-facing seats.\nResults from tests that produced lateral flailing over an armrest indicate that serious injuries, including spinal fractures, would likely occur. While no criteria currently relates the amount of lateral flail to a specific risk of injury, if lateral flexion is limited to the normal static range of motion, then the risk of injury should be low. This range of motion is approximately 40 degrees from the upright position. Ensuring that lateral flexion does not create a significant injury risk is consistent with the goal of providing an equivalent level of safety to that provided by forward- or aft-facing seats, because that type of articulation of those seats does not occur during forward impacts.\nSection 25.562 requires that the restraints remain on the shoulders and pelvises of the occupants during impact. Advisory Circular (AC) 25.562-1B, \u201cDynamic Evaluation of Seat Restraint Systems and Occupant Protection on Transport Airplanes,\u201d dated January 10, 2006, clarifies this requirement by stating that restraints must remain on the shoulders and pelvises when loaded by the occupants. This criterion is necessary to protect the occupants from serious injuries that could be caused by lap-belt contact forces applied to soft tissue, or by ineffectively restraining the upper torsos in the event the upper-torso restraints slide off the shoulders. In forward-facing seats (the type specifically addressed in that AC), occupant motion during rebound, and any subsequent re-loading of the belts, is limited by interaction with the seat backs. However, in side-facing seats subjected to a forward impact, the restraint systems may be the only means of limiting the occupants' rearward (rebound) motion. Likewise, to limit abdominal-injury risk in side-facing seats, the lap belts must remain on the pelvis throughout the impact event, including rebound.\nDuring side-facing-seat dynamic tests, the risk for head injury is assessed with only one occupant size (the 50th percentile male as represented by the ES-2re, as defined in 49 CFR part 572, supbart U). However, protection for a range of occupant statures can be provided if the impacted surface is homogenous in the area contactable by that range of occupants.\nThe FAA has issued special conditions in the past for airbag systems on lap belts for some forward-facing seats. These special conditions for the airbag systems in the shoulder belts are based on the previous special conditions for airbag systems on lap belts, with some changes to address the specific issues of side-facing seats. The special conditions are not an installation approval. Therefore, while the special conditions relate to each such system installed, the overall installation approval is a separate finding and must consider the combined effects of all such systems installed.\nThe FAA has considered the installation of airbag systems in the shoulder belts to have two primary safety concerns: First, that the systems perform properly under foreseeable operating conditions, and second, that the systems do not perform in a manner or at such times as would constitute a hazard to the occupants. This latter point has the potential to be the more rigorous of the requirements, owing to the active nature of the system.\nAs discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane as modified by Associated Air Center. Should the applicant apply at a later date for a supplemental type certificate to modify any other model included on type certificate no. A20WE to incorporate the same novel or unusual design feature, the special conditions would apply to that model as well.\nThe substance of these special conditions has been subjected to the notice-and-comment period in several prior instances and has been derived without substantive change from those previously issued. It is unlikely that prior public comment would result in a significant change from the substance contained herein. Therefore, because a delay would significantly affect the certification of the airplane, the FAA has determined that prior public notice and comment are unnecessary and impracticable, and good cause exists for adopting these special conditions upon publication in the Federal Register. The FAA is requesting comments to allow interested persons to submit views that may not have been submitted in response to the prior opportunities for comment described above.\nThe Special Conditions Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the following special conditions are issued as part of the type certification basis for Boeing Model 747-8 airplanes as modified by Associated Air Center.\nIn addition to the requirements of \u00a7\u00a7\u200925.562 and 25.785, the following special condition numbers 1 and 2 are part of the type certification basis of the Boeing Model 747-8 airplane with side-facing-seat installations, as modified by Associated Air Center. For seat places equipped with airbag systems in the shoulder belts, additional special condition numbers 3 through 16 are part of the type certification basis.\n(a) The longitudinal test(s) conducted in accordance with \u00a7\u200925.562(b)(2) to show compliance with the seat-strength requirements of \u00a7\u200925.562(c)(7) and (8) and these special conditions must have an ES-2re anthropomorphic test dummy (ATD) (49 CFR part 572, subpart U) or equivalent, or a Hybrid-II ATD (49 CFR part 572, subpart B, as specified in \u00a7\u200925.562) or equivalent occupying each seat position and including all items contactable by the occupant (e.g., armrest, interior wall, or furnishing) if those items are necessary to restrain the occupant. If included, the floor representation and contactable items must be located such that their relative position, with respect to the center of the nearest seat place, is the same at the start of the test as before floor misalignment is applied. For example, if floor misalignment rotates the centerline of the seat place nearest the contactable item 8 degrees clockwise about the airplane x-axis, then the item and floor representations must be rotated by 8 degrees clockwise also to maintain the same relative position to the seat place, as shown in Figure 1 of these special conditions. Each ATD's relative position to the seat after application of floor misalignment must be the same as before misalignment is applied. To ensure proper occupant loading of the seat, the ATD pelvis must remain supported by the seat pan, and the restraint system must remain on the pelvis and shoulder of the ATD until rebound begins. No injury-criteria evaluation is necessary for tests conducted only to assess seat-strength requirements.\n(b) The longitudinal test(s) conducted in accordance with \u00a7\u200925.562(b)(2), to show compliance with the injury assessments required by \u00a7\u200925.562(c) and these special conditions, may be conducted separately from the test(s) to show structural integrity. In this case, structural-assessment tests must be conducted as specified in paragraph 1(a) of these special conditions, and the injury-assessment test must be conducted without yaw or floor misalignment. Injury assessments may be accomplished by testing with ES-2re ATD (49 CFR part 572, subpart U) or equivalent at all places. Alternatively, these assessments may be accomplished by multiple tests that use an ES-2re at the seat place being evaluated and a Hybrid-II ATD (49 CFR part 572, subpart B, as specified in \u00a7\u200925.562) or equivalent used in all seat places forward of the one being assessed to evaluate occupant interaction. In this case, seat places aft of the one being assessed may be unoccupied. If a seat installation includes adjacent items that are contactable by the occupant, the injury potential of that contact must be assessed. To make this assessment, tests may be conducted that include the actual item located and attached in a representative fashion. Alternatively, the injury potential may be assessed by a combination of tests with items having the same geometry as the actual item but having stiffness characteristics that would create the worst case for injury (injuries due to both contact with the item and lack of support from the item).\n(c) If a seat is installed aft of a structure (e.g., an interior wall or furnishing) that does not have a homogeneous surface contactable by the occupant, additional analysis and/or test(s) may be required to demonstrate that the injury criteria are met for the area which an occupant could contact. For example, different yaw angles could result in different injury considerations and may require additional analysis or separate test(s) to evaluate.\n(d) To accommodate a range of occupant heights (5th percentile female to 95th percentile male), the surface of items contactable by the occupant must be homogenous 7.3 inches (185 mm) above and 7.9 inches (200 mm) below the point (center of area) that is contacted by the 50th percentile male size ATD's head during the longitudinal test(s) conducted in accordance with paragraphs 1(a), 1(b), and 1(c) of these special conditions. Otherwise, additional head-injury criteria (HIC) assessment tests may be necessary. Any surface (inflatable or otherwise) that provides support for the occupant of any seat place must provide that support in a consistent manner regardless of occupant stature. For example, if an inflatable shoulder belt is used to mitigate injury risk, then it must be demonstrated by inspection to bear against the range of occupants in a similar manner before and after inflation. Likewise, the means of limiting lower-leg flail must be demonstrated by inspection to provide protection for the range of occupants in a similar manner.\n(e) For longitudinal test(s) conducted in accordance with \u00a7\u200925.562(b)(2) and these special conditions, the ATDs must be positioned, clothed, and have lateral instrumentation configured as follows:\n(1) ATD positioning:\n(i) Lower the ATD vertically into the seat while simultaneously (see Figure 2 of these special conditions):\n(B) Applying a horizontal x-axis direction (in the ATD coordinate system) force of about 20 pounds (lbs) (89 Newtons [N]) to the torso at approximately the intersection of the midsagittal plane and the bottom rib of the ES-2re or lower sternum of the Hybrid-II at the midsagittal plane, to compress the seat back cushion.\n(ii) Once all lifting devices have been removed from the ATD:\n(A) Rock it slightly to settle it in the seat.\n(B) Separate the knees by about 4 inches (100 mm).\n(C) Set the ES-2re's head at approximately the midpoint of the available range of z-axis rotation (to align the head and torso midsagittal planes).\n(D) Position the ES-2re's arms at the joint's mechanical detent that puts them at approximately a 40-degree angle with respect to the torso. Position the Hybrid-II ATD hands on top of its upper legs.\n(E) Position the feet such that the centerlines of the lower legs are approximately parallel to a lateral vertical plane (in the airplane coordinate system).\n(2) ATD clothing: Clothe each ATD in form-fitting, mid-calf-length (minimum) pants and shoes (size 11E) weighing about 2.5 lb (1.1 kg) total. The color of the clothing should be in contrast to the color of the restraint system. The ES-2re jacket is sufficient for torso clothing, although a form-fitting shirt may be used in addition if desired.\n(3) ES-2re ATD lateral instrumentation: The rib-module linear slides are directional, i.e., deflection occurs in either a positive or negative ATD y-axis direction. The modules must be installed such that the moving end of the rib module is toward the front of the airplane. The three abdominal-force sensors must be installed such that they are on the side of the ATD toward the front of the airplane.\n(f) The combined horizontal/vertical test, required by \u00a7\u200925.562(b)(1) and these special conditions, must be conducted with a Hybrid II ATD (49 CFR part 572, subpart B, as specified in \u00a7\u200925.562), or equivalent, occupying each seat position.\n(g) Restraint systems:\n(1) If inflatable restraint systems are used, they must be active during all dynamic tests conducted to show compliance with \u00a7\u200925.562.\n(2) The design and installation of seat-belt buckles must prevent unbuckling due to applied inertial forces or impact of the hands/arms of the occupant during an emergency landing.\n(a) Body-to-body contact: Contact between the head, pelvis, torso, or shoulder area of one ATD with the adjacent-seated ATD's head, pelvis, torso, or shoulder area is not allowed. Contact during rebound is allowed.\n(b) Thoracic: The deflection of any of the ES-2re ATD upper, middle, and lower ribs must not exceed 1.73 inches (44 mm). Data must be processed as defined in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 571.214.\n(c) Abdominal: The sum of the measured ES-2re ATD front, middle, and rear abdominal forces must not exceed 562 lb (2,500 N). Data must be processed as defined in FMVSS 571.214.\n(d) Pelvic: The pubic symphysis force measured by the ES-2re ATD must not exceed 1,350 lb (6,000 N). Data must be processed as defined in FMVSS 571.214.\n(e) Leg: Axial rotation of the upper-leg (femur) must be limited to 35 degrees in either direction from the nominal seated position.\n(f) Neck: As measured by the ES-2re ATD and filtered at channel frequency class (CFC) 600 as defined in SAE J211:\n(1) The upper-neck tension force at the occipital condyle location must be less than 405 lb (1,800 N).\n(2) The upper-neck compression force at the occipital condyle location must be less than 405 lb (1,800 N).\n(3) The upper-neck bending torque about the ATD x-axis at the occipital condyle location must be less than 1,018 in-lb (115 Nm).\n(4) The upper-neck resultant shear force at the occipital condyle location must be less than 186 lb (825 N).\n(g) Occupant (ES-2re ATD) retention: The pelvic restraint must remain on the ES-2re ATD's pelvis during the impact and rebound phases of the test. The upper-torso restraint straps (if present) must remain on the ATD's shoulder during the impact.\n(h) Occupant (ES-2re ATD) support:\n(1) Pelvis excursion: The load-bearing portion of the bottom of the ATD pelvis must not translate beyond the edges of its seat's bottom seat-cushion supporting structure.\n(2) Upper-torso support: The lateral flexion of the ATD torso must not exceed 40 degrees from the normal upright position during the impact.\n3. For seats with airbag systems in the shoulder belts, show that the airbag systems in the shoulder belts will deploy and provide protection under crash conditions where it is necessary to prevent serious injury. The means of protection must take into consideration a range of stature from a 2-year-old child to a 95th percentile male. The airbag systems in the shoulder belts must provide a consistent approach to energy absorption throughout that range of occupants. When the seat systems include airbag systems, the systems must be included in each of the certification tests as they would be installed in the airplane. In addition, the following situations must be considered:\n(a) The seat occupant is holding an infant.\n(b) The seat occupant is pregnant.\n4. The airbag systems in the shoulder belts must provide adequate protection for each occupant regardless of the number of occupants of the seat assembly, considering that unoccupied seats may have active airbag systems in the shoulder belts.\n5. The design must prevent the airbag systems in the shoulder belts from being either incorrectly buckled or incorrectly installed, such that the airbag systems in the shoulder belts would not properly deploy. Alternatively, it must be shown that such deployment is not hazardous to the occupant and will provide the required injury protection.\n6. It must be shown that the airbag systems in the shoulder belts are not susceptible to inadvertent deployment as a result of wear and tear, inertial loads resulting from in-flight or ground maneuvers (e.g., including gusts and hard landings), and other operating and environmental conditions (e.g., vibrations and moisture) likely to occur in service.\n7. Deployment of the airbag systems in the shoulder belts must not introduce injury mechanisms to the seated occupants or result in injuries that could impede rapid egress. This assessment should include an occupant whose shoulder belt is loosely fastened.\n8. It must be shown that inadvertent deployment of the airbag systems in the shoulder belts, during the most critical part of the flight, will either meet the requirement of \u00a7\u200925.1309(b) or not cause a hazard to the airplane or its occupants.\n9. It must be shown that the airbag systems in the shoulder belts will not impede rapid egress of occupants 10 seconds after airbag deployment.\n10. The airbag systems must be protected from lightning and high-intensity radiated fields (HIRF). The threats to the airplane specified in existing regulations regarding lighting, \u00a7\u200925.1316, and HIRF, \u00a7\u200925.1317, are incorporated by reference for the purpose of measuring lightning and HIRF protection.\n11. The airbag systems in the shoulder belts must function properly after loss of normal airplane electrical power, and after a transverse separation of the fuselage at the most critical location. A separation at the location of the airbag systems in the shoulder belts does not have to be considered.\n12. It must be shown that the airbag systems in the shoulder belts will not release hazardous quantities of gas or particulate matter into the cabin.\n13. The airbag systems in the shoulder-belt installations must be protected from the effects of fire such that no hazard to occupants will result.\n14. A means must be available for a crew member to verify the integrity of the airbag systems in the shoulder-belt activation system prior to each flight, or it must be demonstrated to reliably operate between inspection intervals. The FAA considers that the loss of the airbag-system deployment function alone (i.e., independent of the conditional event that requires the airbag-system deployment) is a major-failure condition.\n15. The inflatable material may not have an average burn rate of greater than 2.5 inches per minute when tested using the horizontal flammability test defined in part 25, appendix F, part I, paragraph (b)(5).\n16. Once deployed, the airbag systems in the shoulder belts must not adversely affect the emergency-lighting system (e.g., block floor proximity lights to the extent that the lights no longer meet their intended function).\nIssued in Renton, Washington, on November 12, 2015.

This engine model will have a novel or unusual design feature associated with the engine: woven composite fan blades. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.\nThe effective date of these special conditions is December 21, 2015.\nWe must receive your comments by December 7, 2015.\nPrivacy: The FAA will post all comments it receives, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information the commenter provides.

The FAA therefore finds that good cause exists for making these special conditions effective upon issuance.\nSpecial condition No. Company/Airplane model 33-14-02-SC CFM/LEAP-1A\nCFM/LEAP-1C\nWe invite interested people to participate in this rulemaking by sending written comments, data, or views. The agency also invites comments relating to the economic, environmental, energy, or federalism impacts that might result from adopting the proposals in this document. The most helpful comments reference a specific portion of the special conditions, explain the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. To ensure the docket does not contain duplicate comments, commenters should send only one copy of written comments, or if comments are filed electronically, commenters should submit only one time.\nWe will file in the docket all comments we receive, as well as a report summarizing each substantive public contact with FAA personnel concerning this action.

We may change these special conditions based on the comments we receive.\nOn May 9, 2013, CFM International (CFM) applied for a type certificate for their new LEAP-1B engine model(s). The high-bypass-ratio LEAP-1B engine models incorporate woven composite fan blades, a novel or unusual design feature. These fan blades have:\n\u2022 Significant material property characteristic differences from conventional, single-load path, metallic fan blades.\n\u2022 Multiple load path feature and/or crack arresting feature capabilities that, during blade life, may prevent delamination, crack propagation, and/or blade failure.\nBecause of their novel or unusual design, these fan blades:\n\u2022 Require additional airworthiness standards for LEAP-1B engine type certification, to account for material property and failure mode differences with conventional fan blades. The applicable airworthiness regulations that exist do not contain appropriate safety standards for these new blades.\n\u2022 May allow for application of different fan blade containment requirements, if CFM demonstrates improved load path features and/or crack arresting feature capabilities of the new blade design, below the inner annulus flow path line.\nUnder the provisions of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 21.17, CFM must show that the LEAP-1B engine models meet the applicable provisions of the applicable regulations in effect on the date of application, except as detailed in paragraph 21.101(b) and paragraph 21.101(c).\nThe FAA has determined the following certification basis for the LEAP-1B engine models: 14 CFR part 33, \u201cAirworthiness Standards: Aircraft Engines,\u201d dated February 1, 1965, with Amendments 33-1 through 33-33, dated September 20, 2012.\nIf the FAA finds that the regulations in effect on the date of the application for the change do not provide adequate or appropriate safety standards for the LEAP-1B engine model(s) because of a novel or unusual design feature, special conditions are prescribed under the provisions of \u00a7\u200921.16.\nSpecial conditions are initially applicable to the engine model(s) for which they are issued. Should the type certificate for that engine model be amended later to include any other engine model(s) that incorporates the same novel or unusual design feature, the special conditions would also apply to the other engine model(s) under \u00a7\u200921.101.\nIn addition to complying with the applicable product airworthiness regulations and special conditions, the LEAP-1B engine model(s) must comply with the fuel venting and exhaust emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34.\nThe LEAP-1B engine models incorporate a novel or unusual design feature: Woven composite fan blades.\nAs discussed in the summary section, the LEAP-1B engine model(s) incorporate woven composite fan blades instead of conventional, single-load path, metallic fan blades, which is a novel or unusual design feature for aircraft engines. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature.\nAs discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the LEAP-1B engine model(s). Should CFM apply at a later date for a change to the type certificate to include another model on the same type certificate incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, the special conditions would apply to that model as well.\nThis action affects only certain novel or unusual design features on LEAP-1B models of engine(s). It is not a rule of general applicability and applies only to CFM, who requested FAA approval of this engine feature.\nThe Special Conditions Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the following special conditions are issued as part of the type certification basis for CFM LEAP-1B engine model(s).\nSpecial Conditions: CFM International LEAP-1B Model Turbofan Engines\nAccordingly, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issues the following special conditions as part of the type certification basis for the CFM, LEAP-1B turbofan engines.\nPart 33, Requirements. In addition to the airworthiness standards in 14 CFR part 33, effective February 1, 1965, with Amendments 33-1 through 33-33 applicable to the CFM, LEAP-1B engine models:\n(a) Conduct an engine fan blade containment test with the fan blade failing at the inner annulus flow path line instead of at the outermost retention groove.\n(b) Substantiate by test and analysis, or other methods acceptable to the FAA, that a fan disk and fan blade retention system with minimum material properties can withstand, without failure, a centrifugal load equal to two times the maximum load the retention system could experience within approved engine operating limitations. The fan blade retention system includes the portion of the fan blade from the inner annulus flow path line inward to the blade dovetail, the blade retention components, and the fan disk and fan blade attachment features.\n(c) Using a procedure approved by the FAA, establish an operating limitation that specifies the maximum allowable number of start-stop stress cycles for the fan blade retention system. The life evaluation must include the combined effects of high-cycle and low-cycle fatigue. If the operating limitation is less than 100,000 cycles, that limitation must be specified in Chapter 5 of the Engine Manual Airworthiness Limitation Section. The procedure used to establish the maximum allowable number of start-stop stress cycles for the fan blade retention system will incorporate the integrity requirements in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3) of these special conditions for the fan blade retention system.\n(1) An engineering plan, which establishes and maintains that the combinations of loads, material properties, environmental influences, and operating conditions, including the effects of parts influencing these parameters, are well known or predictable through validated analysis, test, or service experience.\n(2) A manufacturing plan that identifies the specific manufacturing constraints necessary to consistently produce the fan blade retention system with the attributes required by the engineering plan.\n(3) A service management plan that defines in-service processes for maintenance and repair of the fan blade retention system, which will maintain attributes consistent with those required by the engineering plan.\n(d) Substantiate by test and analysis, or other methods acceptable to the FAA, that the blade design below the inner annulus flow path line provides multiple load paths and/or crack arresting features that prevent delamination or crack propagation to blade failure during the life of the blade.\n(e) Substantiate that during the service life of the engine, the total probability of an individual blade retention system failure resulting from all possible causes, as defined in \u00a7\u200933.75, will be extremely improbable with a cumulative calculated probability of failure of less than 10E-9 per engine flight hour.\n(f) Substantiate by test or analysis that not only will the engine continue to meet the requirements of \u00a7\u200933.75 following a lightning strike on the composite fan blade structure, but that the lightning strike will not cause damage to the fan blades that would prevent continued safe operation of the affected engine.\n(g) Account for the effects of in-service deterioration, manufacturing variations, minimum material properties, and environmental effects during the tests and analyses required by paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) of these special conditions.\n(h) Propose fleet leader monitoring and field sampling programs that will monitor the effects of engine fan blade usage and fan blade retention system integrity.\n(i) Mark each fan blade legibly and permanently with a part number and a serial number.\nIssued in Burlington, Massachusetts, on October 30, 2015.

[FR Doc. 2015-29589 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2015-3398; Directorate Identifier 2015-CE-031-AD; Amendment 39-18328; AD 2015-16-07 R1] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; REIMS AVIATION S.A. Airplanes AGENCY:\nWe are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for REIMS AVIATION S.A. Model F406 airplanes. This AD revises AD 2015-16-07, which required inspection of the left-hand and right-hand rudder control pedal torque tubes, and, depending on findings, replacement with a serviceable part. This AD retains the actions of AD 2015-16-07 and adds additional acceptable serviceable replacement parts. The AD was prompted by reports of detachment of the pilot's rudder control pedal in flight. We are issuing this AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.\nThe Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain other publication listed in this AD as of August 18, 2015 (80 FR 49127).\nFor service information identified in this AD, contact ASI Aviation, A\u00e9rodrome de Reims Prunay, 51360 Prunay, FRANCE; telephone: +33 3 26 48 46 65; fax: +33 3 26 49 18 57; email: none; Internet: http://asi-aviation.fr/asi-aviation-support/1.html (requires user name and password).

For information on the availability of this material at the FAA, call (816) 329-4148. It is also available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for locating Docket No. FAA-2015-3398.\nAlbert J. Mercado, Aerospace Engineer, FAA, Small Airplane Directorate, 901 Locust, Room 301, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; telephone: (816) 329-4119; fax: (816) 329-4090; email: [email protected]\nOn August 6, 2015, we issued AD 2015-16-07, Amendment 39-18232 (80 FR 49127, August 17, 2015). That AD required actions intended to address an unsafe condition on REIMS AVIATION S.A. Model F406 airplanes and was based on mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country.\nSince we issued AD 2015-16-07, Amendment 39-18232 (80 FR 49127, August 17, 2015), we received a comment from Hageland Aviation Services, Inc. requesting that we expand what is allowable to use as a replacement part for the rudder control pedal torque tube as defined in paragraph (f)(4) of AD 2015-16-07. The commenter requested that we include a brand new rudder control pedal that has never been installed on an airplane because it would have been inspected during manufacturing. In addition, EASA revised AD 2015-0159-E (2015-0159R1) to incorporate the above change.\nWe agreed with the commenter and have revised this AD to add \u201ca new rudder control pedal that has never been installed on an airplane\u201d to the definition of serviceable part.\nASI AVIATION has issued Service Bulletin No.: F406-104, dated July 28, 2015. The actions described in this service information are intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI. The service information describes procedures for inspection of the left-hand and right-hand rudder control pedal torque tubes, and, depending on findings, replacement with a serviceable part. This service information is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this AD.\nAn unsafe condition exists that allows for the immediate adoption of this AD. The FAA has found there is justification to waive notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because it only changes the definition of a serviceable part to give the option of installing a new part without inspecting it since it already has been inspected at manufacture. Therefore, we determine that notice and opportunity for public comment before issuing this AD are unnecessary.\nWe estimate that this AD will affect 7 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it will take about 5 work-hours per product to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour.\nBased on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD on U.S. operators to be $2,975, or $425 per product.\nIn addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will take about 20 work-hours and require parts costing $10,000, for a cost of $11,700 per product. We have no way of determining the number of products that may need these actions.\n2. The FAA amends \u00a7\u200939.13 by removing airworthiness directive (AD) 2015-16-07 (80 FR 49127, August 17, 2015) and adding the following new AD: 2015-16-07\u2003R1 Reims Aviation S.A.: Amendment 39-18328; Docket No. FAA-2015-3398; Directorate Identifier 2015-CE-031-AD. (a) Effective Date\nThis airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective December 28, 2015.\nThis AD applies to Reims Aviation S.A. Model F406 airplanes, serial numbers 0001 through 0098, certificated in any category.\nThis AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as detachment of the pilot's rudder control pedal in flight. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracking of the pilot rudder control pedal which, if not corrected, could result in detachment of the pedal with possible loss of airplane directional control.\nUnless already done, do the actions in paragraphs (f)(1) through (f)(4) of this AD.\n(1) Before further flight after August 18, 2015 (the effective date retained from AD 2015-16-07), do a visual inspection and a dye or fluorescent penetrant inspection of the rudder control pedal torque tubes, LH (Part Number (P/N) 5115260-1) and RH (P/N 5115260-2), following the instructions of PART A of ASI AVIATION Service Bulletin No.: F406-104, dated July 28, 2015.\n(2) If no crack is detected during the inspection required by paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, within 100 hours time-in-service (TIS) after August 18, 2015 (the effective date retained from AD 2015-16-07), do a magnetic particle inspection of the rudder control pedal torque tubes, LH (P/N 5115260-1) and RH (P/N 5115260-2), following the instructions of PART B of ASI AVIATION Service Bulletin No.: F406-104, dated July 28, 2015.\n(3) If any crack is detected on a rudder control pedal torque tube during the inspection required by paragraph (f)(1) or (f)(2) of this AD, before further flight, replace the affected part with a serviceable part following the instructions of ASI AVIATION Service Bulletin No.: F406-104, dated July 28, 2015.\n(4) For the purpose of this AD, a serviceable part is:\n(i) A rudder control pedal torque tube (LH P/N 5115260-1 or RH P/N 5115260-2) that has had a magnetic particle inspection following the instructions of PART B of ASI AVIATION Service Bulletin No.: F406-104, dated July 28, 2015, and no cracks were found; or\n(ii) A new rudder control pedal torque tube (LH P/N 5115260-1 or RH P/N 5115260-2) that has never been installed on an airplane.\n(5) You may install a rudder control pedal torque tube P/N 5115260-1 (LH) or P/N 5115260-2 (RH) on an airplane, provided it is a serviceable part.\n(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Office, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.

AD 2011-09-04 required repetitive inspections for damage to the lower surface of the center wing box (CWB), and corrective actions if necessary. This new AD adds related investigative actions, and corrective actions if necessary. This AD was prompted by an evaluation by the design approval holder (DAH) that indicated that the CWB is subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD). We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the lower surface of the CWB, which could result in structural failure of the wings.\nThe Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain other publication listed in this AD as of June 22, 2011 (76 FR 28626, May 18, 2011).\nYou may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.govby searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2014-0427; or in person at the Docket Management Facility between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The AD docket contains this AD, the regulatory evaluation, any comments received, and other information. The address for the Docket Office (phone: 800-647-5527) is Docket Management Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Operations, M-30, West Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590.\nCarl Gray, Aerospace Engineer, Airframe Branch, ACE-117A, FAA, Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office, 1701 Columbia Avenue, College Park, GA 30337; telephone 404-474-5554; fax 404-474-5605; email: [email protected]\nWe issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2011-09-04, Amendment 39-16666 (76 FR 28626, May 18, 2011). AD 2011-09-04 applied to all Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on July 1, 2014 (79 FR 37248). The NPRM was prompted by an evaluation by the DAH that indicated that the CWB is subject to WFD. The NPRM proposed to continue to require repetitive inspections for any damage of the lower surface of the CWB, and corrective actions if necessary. The NPRM also proposed to require replacement of the CWB, and to add, for the repetitive inspections, concurrent related investigative actions, and corrective actions if necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the lower surface of the CWB, which could result in structural failure of the wings.\nActions Since Issuance of the NPRM (79 FR 37248, July 1, 2014)\nThe CWB replacement, proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 37248, July 1, 2014), has been removed from this final rule, and is instead required by AD 2015-18-02, Amendment 39-18260 (80 FR 52941, September 2, 2015). We determined that the proposed compliance time for the CWB replacement would not adequately address the unsafe condition, because the risk of undetected WFD rises rapidly for CWBs that have accumulated 50,000 total flight hours. Therefore, for airplanes over the 50,000-flight-hour threshold, AD 2015-18-02 provides a shorter grace period than that proposed in the NPRM. In this AD, we have removed paragraph (k) of the proposed AD and Note 1 to paragraph (k) of the proposed AD, and redesignated subsequent paragraphs accordingly.\nWe gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comments to the NPRM (79 FR 37248, July 1, 2014) related to the proposed inspection requirements, and the FAA's response to those comments. Since this AD does not include the CWB replacement proposed in paragraph (k) of the NPRM, this AD does not address comments regarding the CWB replacement. Those comments are addressed in AD 2015-18-02, Amendment 39-18260 (80 FR 52941, September 2, 2015).\nLynden Air Cargo (Lynden) stated that it concurs that the proposed inspections are beneficial and enhance safety.\nLynden questioned whether the FAA considered the safety risk factor for \u201crestricted category type certificated Model C-130A through H airplanes\u201d and whether those airplanes should be included in the applicability.\nWe did consider the safety risk factor for those airplanes. The FAA issued restricted-category type certificates only for Model C-130A and C-130B airplanes, and these are low-usage airplanes. The wings on Model C-130A airplanes are different from those of other models; the CWBs have previously been replaced on all Model C-130A airplanes. There are no civil registered Model C-130B airplanes in service. We might consider further rulemaking for Model C-130 airplanes. We have not changed this AD regarding this issue.\nRequest To Revise Repair Approval Procedures\nSafair requested that we revise the NPRM (79 FR 37248, July 1, 2014) to authorize the DAH or designated engineering representative (DER) to develop and approve repairs under international operator support agreements with the state-of-registration civil authorities.\nWe agree with the commenter's request. We have revised paragraphs (h), (i)(1)(ii), (j), and (k)(1) of this AD to require that certain repairs, alternative compliance times, and inspection methods be approved in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (m) of this AD, which allows DER approval for repairs as specified in new paragraph (m)(3) of this AD.\nRequest To Require a Report of Inspection Findings\nNoting that the NPRM (79 FR 37248, July 1, 2014) would not require inspection reports, Safair suggested that Lockheed build a database of inspection findings. The commenter asserted that the data would not be collected unless mandated.\nIt is not necessary to require operators to report inspection findings, as the Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office (ACO) already maintains a database for tracking repairs. The database includes repair reports from the U.S. as well as DER reports for airplanes outside of the U.S. We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nWe reviewed Lockheed Service Bulletin 382-57-85 (82-790), Revision 3, dated July 8, 2013, including Appendix A, Revision 3, dated July 8, 2013, and Appendixes B, C, D, E, F, and G, all Revision 1, all dated March 8, 2007. The service information describes procedures for inspecting the lower surface of the CWB. This service information is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this AD.\nEstimated Costs Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators Inspection [retained action from AD 2011-09-04, Amendment 39-16666 (76 FR 28626, May 18, 2011)] 2,000 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $170,000 per inspection cycle N/A $170,000 per inspection cycle $2,550,000 per inspection cycle.\nWe have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide cost estimates for the related investigative actions specified in this AD.\nWe estimate the following costs to do any necessary repair that would be required. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need this repair:\nOn-Condition Costs Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Repair [retained from AD 2011-09-04, Amendment 39-16666 (76 FR 28626, May 18, 2011)] 1,000 to 3,000 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $85,000 to $255,000 $30,000 $115,000 to $285,000. Authority for This Rulemaking\n2. The FAA amends \u00a7\u200939.13 by removing Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2011-09-04, Amendment 39-16666 (76 FR 28626, May 18, 2011), and adding the following new AD: 2015-22-11\u2003Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company: Amendment 39-18316; Docket No. FAA-2014-0427; Directorate Identifier 2013-NM-218-AD. (a) Effective Date\nThis AD applies to all Lockheed Martin Corporation/Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G airplanes, certificated in any category.\nThis AD was prompted by an evaluation by the design approval holder (DAH) that indicated the center wing box (CWB) is subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD).

[FR Doc. 2015-28464 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2014-1043; Directorate Identifier 2013-NM-079-AD; Amendment 39-18321; AD 2015-23-05] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes AGENCY:\nWe are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Model A330-200, A330-200 Freighter, and A330-300 series airplanes; and Model A340-200 and A340-300 series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of cracked support strut body ends at a certain frame location of the trimmable horizontal stabilizer (THS). This AD requires repetitive inspections for cracking of the strut ends of the THS support located at a certain frame in the tail cone, and replacement if necessary; and reinstallation or installation of reinforcing clamps on certain strut ends. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracked support strut body ends of the THS, which could lead to the loss of all four THS support struts, making the remaining structure unable to carry limit loads, resulting in the loss of the horizontal tail plane.\nWe issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all Airbus Model A330-200, A330-200 Freighter, and A330-300 series airplanes; and Model A340-200 and A340-300 series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on January 23, 2015 (80 FR 3510). The NPRM was prompted by reports of cracked support strut body ends at a certain frame location of the THS. The NPRM proposed to require repetitive inspections for cracking of the strut ends of the THS support located at a certain frame in the tail cone, and replacement if necessary; and reinstallation or installation of reinforcing clamps on certain strut ends. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracked support strut body ends of the THS, which could lead to the loss of all four THS support struts, making the remaining structure unable to carry limit loads, resulting in the loss of the horizontal tail plane.\nThe European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 2014-0068, dated March 18, 2014 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or \u201cthe MCAI\u201d), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus Model A330-200, A330-200 Freighter, and A330-300 series airplanes; and Model A340-200 and A340-300 series airplanes. The MCAI states:\nDuring scheduled maintenance on A330 aeroplanes, several Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) support struts at frame (FR) 91 were found cracked at strut body ends.\nThe THS is supported and articulated at FR 91 by four struts to fix the hinges (Y-bolts) and keep the structural integrity in lateral direction.\nAnalysis revealed that cracks can reduce ability of the support struts to carry specified tension loads.\nThis condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to the loss of all four THS support struts at FR91, which would make the remaining structure unable to carry limit loads, resulting in the loss of Horizontal Tail Plane.\nA340-500/600 aeroplanes are not affected by this [EASA] AD as different material is used on THS support struts.\nTo address this potentially unsafe condition, EASA issued AD 2013-0076 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2013_0076_superseded.pdf/AD_2013-0076_1] to require repetitive special detailed inspections [high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for cracking] of all 8 strut ends of the THS support located at FR91 in the tail cone and, depending on findings, replacement of THS support struts. That [EASA] AD also required, for aeroplanes on which Airbus Modification 203493 had not been embodied in production, or Airbus Service Bulletin (SB) A330-53-3204 or SB A340-53-4199, as applicable, has not been embodied in service, the installation of a clamping device on each support strut end to stop growth of possible cracks (crack stopper function) in order to secure integrity of the struts.\nSince issuance of EASA AD 2013-0076 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2013_0076_superseded.pdf/AD_2013-0076_1], it has been discovered that several aeroplanes are fitted with another strut configuration (SARMA Strut) [Societ\u00e9 Anonyme de Recherche M\u00e9canique Appliqu\u00e9e] than the TAC (Technical Airborne Components Industries) strut, which caused the other strut not to be considered. Consequently, Airbus revised Airbus SB A330-53-3206 and SB A340-53-4208, accordingly in order to add a one-time [HFEC] inspection [for cracking] for SARMA struts and in case of finding to replace it with a TAC strut and thereafter to accomplish repetitive inspections and EASA issued AD 2013-0219 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2013_0219_superseded.pdf/AD_2013-0219_1], which is superseded, and required accomplishment of the instructions as specified in the latest revision of each SB, as applicable.\nSince issuance of EASA AD 2013-0219 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2013_0219_superseded.pdf/AD_2013-0219_1], based on the reporting received from operators, it has been determined that repetitive inspections are also to be accomplished for aeroplanes equipped with SARMA strut. Airbus introduced that inspection in the applicable SB at revision 3.\nFor the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the requirements of EASA AD 2013-0219, which is superseded, and requires accomplishment of repetitive [HFEC] inspective inspection [for cracking] for aeroplanes equipped with SARMA strut.\nThis [EASA] AD is considered as an interim action, pending the development of a terminating action.\nWe gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015) and the FAA's response to each comment.\nRequest To Add Inspection for Identifying Struts\nDelta Air Lines, Inc. (DAL) requested that we add a physical inspection to paragraph (g) of the proposed AD (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015) to distinguish a Societ\u00e9 Anonyme de Recherche M\u00e9canique Appliqu\u00e9e (SARMA) strut from a Technical Airborne Components Industries (TAC) strut. DAL stated that paragraph (g) of the proposed AD only identifies the dimensional diameter of SARMA struts; however, DAL stated that both TAC and SARMA struts have the same manufacturer part numbers but have different rod end diameters. DAL suggested language for doing a physical inspection of the strut end of each support strut for identification purposes.\nWe agree that a physical inspection is necessary to determine the rod end diameter in order to distinguish between SARMA and TAC struts. However, that inspection is optional. Paragraph (g) of this AD defines SARMA struts as having a diameter that is less than 43 millimeters, and states that all other struts are TAC struts. Paragraph (h) of this AD requires inspecting TAC struts. Thus, operators must inspect all struts unless the strut is inspected to determine the diameter is less than 43 millimeters, i.e., it is a SARMA strut. We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nRequest To Include Airbus Modification 203834 for Installing Reinforced Clamps\nDAL requested that we revise paragraph (h) of the proposed AD (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015) to include Airbus Modification 203834 as an optional modification for installation of the reinforced clamps. DAL stated that Airbus has confirmed that Airbus Modification 203834 installs the same reinforced clamps as Airbus Modification 203493 specified in paragraph (h) of the proposed AD.\nWe agree with the commenter's request. The FAA has approved two Airbus modifications for installing the reinforced clamps into production airplanes: Modification 203493 for airplanes having manufacturer serial number (MSN) 1466 to 1509 inclusive, and Modification 203834 for airplanes having MSN 1510 and on. Modification 203834 supersedes Modification 203493, and the first airplane delivered with Modification 203834 installed was MSN 1511.\nThus, operators may have the two populations of airplanes: Those with Modification 203834 and those with Modification 203493. This AD must address both groups of airplanes accordingly. We have revised paragraph (h) of this AD to specify that, for airplanes on which Airbus Modification 203493 or 203834 has been embodied in production; or on which Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3204 or Airbus Service Bulletin A340 53-4199, as applicable; has been embodied in service, remove the clamp from each strut end before accomplishing the inspections required by paragraph (h) of this AD.\nRequest To Include Additional Service Information\nDAL requested that we revise paragraphs (j)(1), (j)(2), and (l) of the proposed AD (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015) to include Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3204. DAL stated that, when clamps were not previously installed, Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3204 becomes the source document for installing the clamps.\nWe agree that Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3204, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014, is an appropriate source of service information for installing clamps. However, we do not agree to revise this AD because that service information is already referenced in Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014, which is referred to as one of the appropriate sources of service information for the actions required by paragraphs (j)(1), (j)(2), and (l) of this AD. As specified in the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014., \u201cif no clamps were previously installed, accomplish Service Bulletin A330-53-3204 before next flight, to install them.\u201d Therefore, no change to this AD is necessary in this regard.\nRequest To Clarify Flight With Cracking\nDAL requested that we clarify/confirm that the NPRM (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015) will apply more strict replacement criteria when cracks are found than what is currently published in Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014. DAL stated that Subtask 533206-280-201-001 of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014, contains instructions to allow continued operation of the airplane with small crack findings without immediate strut replacement.\nWe agree. In the \u201cDifferences Between this Proposed AD and the MCAI or Service Information\u201d section of the NPRM (80 FR 3510, January 23, 2015), we stated that \u201cAlthough EASA Airworthiness Directive 2014-0068, dated March 18, 2014, Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014, and Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014, allow further flight after certain cracks are found during compliance with the proposed action, paragraph (j)(2) of this AD would require that any cracked THS support strut be replaced with a new or serviceable TAC strut before further flight.\u201d No change to this AD is necessary in this regard.\n\u2022 Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014. This service information describes procedures for inspections for cracking of the strut ends of the THS support located in the airplane tail cone.\nWe have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide cost estimates for the on-condition replacement specified in this AD.\nWe estimate that any necessary follow-on strut reinforcements will take about 2 work-hours and require parts costing $5,680, for a cost of $5,850 per product. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need this action.\nThis AD applies to the airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3) of this AD, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers.\n(1) Airbus Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, -223F, -243, and -243F airplanes.\nThis AD was prompted by reports of cracked support strut body ends at a certain frame location of the trimmable horizontal stabilizer (THS). We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracked support strut body ends of the THS, which could lead to the loss of all four THS support struts and which would make the remaining structure unable to carry limit loads, resulting in the loss of the horizontal tail plane.\n(g) Definition of Strut Types\nFor the purpose of this AD, a Societ\u00e9 Anonyme de Recherche M\u00e9canique Appliqu\u00e9e (SARMA) strut is a strut on which the diameter of the strut end is less than 43 millimeters. All other struts are Technical Airborne Components Industries (TAC) struts.\n(h) Repetitive Inspections of TAC Strut Ends\nAt the applicable time specified in paragraph (i) of this AD, do a high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspection for cracking of all TAC strut ends of the THS support located at frame (FR) 91 in the tail cone, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; as applicable. Repeat the inspection thereafter at intervals not to exceed 42 months or 20,000 flight hours, whichever occurs first. For airplanes on which Airbus Modification 203493 or 203834 has been embodied in production, or Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3204 or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4199, as applicable, has been embodied in service, remove the clamp from each strut end before accomplishing the inspections required by this paragraph.\n(i) Compliance Times for the Actions Required by Paragraphs (h) and (k) of This AD\nDo the inspections required by paragraphs (h) and (k) of this AD at the applicable times specified in paragraphs (i)(1), (i)(2), and (i)(3) of this AD.\n(1) For Model A330 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 012 through 209 inclusive, and Model A340 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 002 through 210 inclusive: Within 6 months after the effective date of this AD.\n(2) For Model A330 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 211 through 422 inclusive, and Model A340 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 212 through 447 inclusive: Within 24 months after the effective date of this AD.\n(3) For Model A330 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 423 and subsequent, and Model A340 series airplanes having manufacturer serial numbers 450 through 955 inclusive: Within 36 months after the effective date of this AD or since the first flight of the airplane, whichever occurs later.\n(j) Corrective Action for TAC Strut Ends and Installation of Reinforcing Clamps\n(1) If, during any inspection required by paragraph (h) of this AD, no cracks are found: Before further flight, reinstall or install, as applicable, reinforcing clamps on the strut ends, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; as applicable.\n(2) If, during any inspection required by paragraph (h) of this AD, any crack is found: Before further flight, replace any affected strut with a new or serviceable TAC strut and install reinforcing clamps on the strut end, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; as applicable.\n(k) Repetitive Inspections of SARMA Strut Ends\nAt the applicable time specified in paragraph (i) of this AD, do an HFEC inspection for cracking of all SARMA strut ends of the THS support located at FR 91 in the tail cone, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; as applicable. Repeat the inspection thereafter at intervals not to exceed 12 months.\n(l) Corrective Action for SARMA Strut Ends\nIf any crack is found on a strut end during the inspection required by paragraph (k) of this AD: Before further flight, replace any affected SARMA strut with a new or serviceable TAC strut and install reinforcing clamps on the strut end, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; or Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; as applicable.\n(m) No Terminating Action\nReplacement of THS struts on an airplane does not constitute terminating action for the repetitive inspections required by this AD.\n(n) No Reporting\nAlthough Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; and Airbus Service Bulletin A340-53-4208, Revision 03, dated February 28, 2014; specify to submit certain information to the manufacturer, this AD does not include that requirement.\nThis paragraph provides credit for actions required by paragraphs (g), (h), (j), and (k) of this AD, if those actions were performed before the effective date of this AD using any of the service information identified in paragraphs (n)(1) through (n)(6) of this AD. This service information is not incorporated by reference in this AD.\n(1) Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, dated February 7, 2013.\n(3) Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3206, Revision 02, dated August 8, 2013.\n(1) Refer to Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information (MCAI) EASA Airworthiness Directive 2014-0068, dated March 18, 2014, for related information. This MCAI may be found in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-1043-0002.\nWe are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 747-100, 747-100B, 747-100B SUD, 747-200B, 747-300, 747SR, and 747SP series airplanes. This AD was prompted by an evaluation by the design approval holder (DAH) indicating that certain fuselage skin lap joints are subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD). This AD requires repetitive post-modification inspections for cracking of the skin or internal doubler along the edge fastener rows of the modification, and repair if necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking in certain fuselage skin lap joints, which could result in rapid depressurization of the airplane.\nWe issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain The Boeing Company Model 747-100, 747-100B, 747-100B SUD, 747-200B, 747-300, 747SR, and 747SP series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on May 5, 2015 (80 FR 25630). The NPRM was prompted by an evaluation by the DAH indicating that certain fuselage skin lap joints are subject to WFD. The NPRM proposed to require repetitive post-modification inspections for cracking of the skin or internal doubler along the edge fastener rows of the modification, and repair if necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking in certain fuselage skin lap joints, which could result in rapid depressurization of the airplane.\nWe gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) and the FAA's response to each comment.\nRequest To Remove Warranty Statement\nBoeing requested that we remove the statement that \u201csome of the costs of this proposed AD may be covered under warranty\u201d in the Costs of Compliance section of the NPRM (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015). Boeing stated that the actions in the NPRM are not covered by warranty.\nWe agree with the commenter's request. We have revised the Costs of Compliance section of this final rule accordingly.\nRequest To Revise Paragraph Headings\nBoeing requested that we revise the headings of paragraphs (g), (h), (j), and (k) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) by removing reference to the inspections as \u201crepetitive\u201d or \u201cinitial.\u201d Boeing stated that these revisions will provide consistency among paragraph headings because paragraphs (g), (j), and (k) of the proposed AD do not have an initial inspection program, yet paragraph (h) of the proposed AD has only an initial inspection.\nWe acknowledge the commenter's concern and agree to clarify the headings. We do not presume that the term \u201crepetitive\u201d necessarily excludes the initial action. An action cannot be repeated without accomplishment of the initial action. In addition, in many ADs we use the term \u201crepetitive\u201d actions for paragraphs that include the initial action and repetitive actions. Paragraphs (g), (j), and (k) of this AD include both a sentence specifying the initial inspection and a sentence specifying the repetitive inspections. We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nBoeing requested that we clarify the compliance time in paragraphs (g), (h), (j), and (k) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) by revising \u201cat the applicable time\u201d to \u201cat the applicable time and repeat intervals.\u201d Boeing stated that these revisions would clarify that the applicable time also includes the repeat intervals per Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014.\nWe do not agree to combine the initial inspection and the repetitive inspection times into one statement because ADs typically call out initial inspections and repetitive inspections in separate sentences. Paragraph (h) of this AD specifies only an initial inspection. Paragraphs (g), (j), and (k) of this AD specifies an initial inspection and states that the repetitive inspections are for the unrepaired areas, which are to be done at the applicable times specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014. We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nRequest To Delete the Unrepaired Area Statement From Paragraphs (g) (j) and (k) of the Proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015)\nBoeing requested that we delete the last sentence in paragraphs (g), (j), and (k) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015), which states \u201cIn unrepaired areas, repeat the . . . inspections for cracks . . . .\u201d Boeing stated that the sentence is confusing as the unrepaired area case is actually for no cracks found in the modification area after doing the inspection as specified in the applicable tables 3, 5, and 6 of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014. Boeing explained that the proposed AD wording may cause confusion when information is provided in a different format than the service bulletin tables.\nWe do not agree with the commenter's request because the text \u201cin unrepaired areas\u201d matches the text in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014. Paragraphs (g), (j), and (k) of this AD specify doing actions at the applicable time specified in tables 3, 5, and 6 of paragraph 1.E., \u201cCompliance,\u201d of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014. In these tables, the compliance time is specified for the actions required for the unrepaired area. We have not revised this AD in this regard.\nRequest To Combine Paragraphs\nBoeing requested that we combine paragraphs (h) and (i) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) by deleting paragraph (i) of the proposed AD and revising paragraph (h) of the proposed AD from \u201cat the applicable time\u201d to \u201cat the applicable time and repeat intervals.\u201d Boeing explained that it is confusing to have separate paragraphs address initial and repetitive inspections for a particular aircraft as both initial and repetitive inspections are addressed within table 4 of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014.\nWe acknowledge that table 4 of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014, contains compliance times for both initial and repetitive inspections. However, we do not agree with the commenter's request because the AD includes separate paragraphs in order to clarify the repetitive inspection intervals. For the initial inspections, table 4 of paragraph 1.E., \u201cCompliance,\u201d of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014, specifies two crack conditions, which are based on the number of fight cycles on the airplane since stringer 6 external doublers were installed. To aid the operators in determining which repetitive inspection(s) they are required to do, this AD provides the repetitive inspections (as restated from the NPRM (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015)), depending on the applicable condition, in separate repetitive inspection paragraphs (paragraphs (i)(1) and (i)(2) of this AD). We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nRequest To Revise External Inspection Wording\nBoeing requested that we remove the word \u201cexternal\u201d from paragraph (h) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015), which specified \u201cexternal detailed, low frequency eddy current, and high frequency eddy current inspections.\u201d Boeing explained that if paragraphs (h) and (i) of the proposed AD are combined, both external and internal detailed inspections are required. Boeing stated that removing \u201cexternal\u201d from the inspection direction would therefore cover all airplane conditions.\nAs stated previously, we do not agree to combine paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD into one paragraph. Therefore, the terminology in paragraph (h) of this AD matches Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014, which specifies doing external detailed, low frequency eddy current (LFEC), and high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for cracks. We have not changed this AD in this regard.\nRequest To Revise Headings of Paragraphs (h), (i), and (j) of the Proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015)\nBoeing requested that we revise the headings of paragraphs (h), (i), and (j) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) by adding a reference to the applicable service information. Boeing stated that these changes will add consistency among paragraphs (h), (i), and (j) of the proposed AD in identifying an installed external doubler modification.\nWe agree with the commenter's request. We have revised the headings of paragraphs (h), (i), and (j) of this AD accordingly.\nBoeing noted that a phrase describing the major action in paragraph (j) of the proposed AD (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) was duplicated and asked that we correct this.\n\u2022 \u0391re consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 25630, May 5, 2015) for correcting the unsafe condition; and\nWe reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-53A2367, Revision 5, dated July 8, 2014. This service information describes procedures for inspections and repair for cracks in the skin and doublers along the edge fastener rows of modifications in the fuselage.

The NPRM published in the Federal Register on April 22, 2015 (80 FR 22438).\nThe European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 2012-0254R1, dated December 21, 2012 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or \u201cthe MCAI\u201d), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Zodiac Aerotechnics (formerly Intertechnique Aircraft Systems) flightcrew oxygen mask regulators as installed on, but not limited to, various transport and small airplanes. The MCAI states:\nIn a repair station, improper maintenance on [flightcrew] oxygen mask regulators was reported to Intertechnique: during an inspection of the oxygen test bench by its manufacturer, incorrect settings were noticed. This test bench setting discrepancy on the oxygen mask regulator could cause an improper mask dilution schedule.\nThis condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead, in case of a diversion above 10,000 feet after a depressurization event, to the inhalation of air with improper content of oxygen, due to the bad dilution settings, thereby providing inadequate protection to the affected flightcrew member against hypoxia, which can start from a headache and drowsiness and lead eventually to unconsciousness with severe consequence in term of aeroplane controllability.\nFor the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires the identification and replacement of all potentially affected units. This [EASA] AD also requires installation of a placard and [a revision to the airplane flight manual to include] * * * an operational procedure [in case of depressurization] pending replacement of the affected units.\nWe gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (80 FR 22438, April 22, 2015) and the FAA's response to each comment. Boeing concurred with the contents of the NPRM.\nRequest To Revise the Air Transport Association (ATA) Code\nHorizon Air requested that we change the ATA code specified in paragraph (d) of the proposed AD (80 FR 22438, April 22, 2015) to \u201c35.\u201d The commenter stated that the correct ATA code for oxygen is ATA 35.\nWe agree with the commenter because this AD addresses an unsafe condition for certain oxygen mask regulators. We have removed the ATA code of \u201c28\u201d and instead we have referred to ATA code \u201c35\u201d in paragraph (d) of this AD.\nZodiac Services has issued Zodiac Aerospace Service Bulletin MCF-SBU-35-001, Revision 1, dated December 3, 2012. The service information describes procedures for the identification and replacement of all potentially affected units. This service information is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this AD.\nWe also estimate that it will take about 3 work-hours per product to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $225 per product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be $6,240, or $480 per product.\n2.

Notably, \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 limit the types of non-nutritive sweeteners that can be used in products that are governed by those standards of identity. Under \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161, such products may only use saccharin, sodium saccharin, calcium saccharin, or any combination thereof, and may not use newer forms of non-nutritive sweeteners that have been developed since the standard of identity regulations were issued.\nThe Nutrition Labeling and Education Act (NLEA) of 1990 amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) to provide for a number of fundamental changes in food labeling, leading to a new regulatory framework for the naming of foods that do not fully comply with the relevant standards of identity. In response to NLEA, we established in part 101 (21 CFR part 101), among other things, definitions for specific nutrient content claims using terms such as \u201cfree\u201d, \u201clow\u201d, \u201dlight\u201d or \u201clite\u201d, and \u201cless\u201d, and provided for their use in food labeling (58 FR 2302; January 6, 1993). We also prescribed, in \u00a7\u2009130.10 (21 CFR 130.10), a general definition and standard of identity for foods named by a nutrient content claim defined in part 101, such as \u201clow calorie\u201d or \u201csugar free\u201d, in conjunction with a traditional standardized food term (58 FR 2431; January 6, 1993). A nutrient content claim applied to the standardized food \u201cgrape jelly\u201d, for example, could be \u201clow calorie grape jelly\u201d. Section 130.10(d)(1) allows the addition of safe and suitable ingredients to a food named by use of a nutrient content claim and a standardized term when these ingredients are used to, among other things, add sweetness to ensure that the modified food is not inferior in performance characteristics to the standardized food even if such ingredients are not specifically provided for by the relevant food standard. Thus, under certain circumstances, \u00a7\u2009130.10 permits manufacturers to use safe and suitable artificial sweeteners (e.g., sucralose) that are not expressly listed in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 in the manufacture of jelly, fruit preserves, and jams (collectively, \u201cfruit spreads\u201d). Therefore, fruit spread products named with a nutrient content claim (for example, \u201clow calorie grape jelly\u201d) may contain newer artificial sweeteners to add sweetness to fruit spread products so that they are not inferior in their sweetness compared to their standardized counterparts (for example, \u201cgrape jelly\u201d). Section 130.10 does not require these products to declare the presence of such non-nutritive sweeteners within the name of these foods. We took this action to help consumers in maintaining healthy dietary practices by providing for a modified version of a traditional standardized food to achieve a nutrition goal (e.g., reduction in sugar consumption or calories) and that has a descriptive name that is meaningful to consumers. Section 130.10 does not, however, permit the use of nutrient content claims as part of the name of a food for foods governed by standards of identity that established the phrase \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d as part of the standard of identity. Accordingly, jelly, preserves, and jams, that use saccharin, sodium saccharin, calcium saccharin, or any combination thereof as non-nutritive sweeteners must still include the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d in their names and are not permitted to bear a nutrient content claim as part of the name. However, similar products that use newer non-nutritive sweeteners are governed by \u00a7\u2009130.10 and are not required to include the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d in their names.\nIn the Federal Register of December 4, 2012, we proposed to revoke the standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly, preserves, and jam in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 (77 FR 71746). The proposed rule was in response to a citizen petition submitted by the IJPA requesting such a revocation. In issuing the notice of proposed rulemaking, we stated that we found merit in the argument made in IJPA's petition that revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 would allow manufacturers to more accurately and consistently describe the attributes of the fruit spreads that currently conform to those regulations. We therefore tentatively concluded that revoking the standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly, preserves, and jams would promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers and was thus appropriate under section 401 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 341). We tentatively reached this conclusion because we found that nutrient content claims such as \u201clow calorie\u201d or \u201creduced sugar\u201d better characterize the nutritional profile of the affected fruit spreads than does the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d. Further, we stated that revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 would provide manufacturers with the flexibility to use the three non-nutritive sweeteners listed in those standards while also naming their products using FDA-defined nutrient content claims, in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10. We also noted that other safe and suitable artificial sweeteners that might be developed in the future could be used in these products under \u00a7\u2009130.10 without the need to further revise relevant standards of identity, and that the proposed rule was consistent with FDA's proposed general principles for modernizing food standards (70 FR 29214; May 20, 2005).\nII. Comments to the Proposed Rule and FDA's Responses\nWe received 21 comments to the proposed rule. The comments were from trade associations, food companies, and individuals. Two comments were identical, and another comment appeared to have been misdirected because it pertained to blogs. Most of the comments made general remarks supporting or opposing the rule and did not focus on a particular component of the rule.\nSix comments supported the proposed rule. One comment stated that the proposed rule would provide flexibility to industry to use artificial sweeteners and to not use the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d in the name of their products. The comment also stated that the proposed rule would provide consistency and uniformity in the labeling of fruit spreads. Several comments stated that \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 limit the type of non-nutritive sweeteners, and that enactment of the NLEA and FDA's regulation in \u00a7\u2009130.10 allow flexibility. One of the comments also stated that the use of nutrient content claims such as \u201creduced sugar\u201d in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10 provides a better way to communicate with consumers to meet their nutritional goals.\nIn contrast, other comments opposed the proposed rule. Several comments said that the rule would remove transparency that allows consumers to make knowledgeable decisions. Another expressed concern that the non-nutritive sweeteners would not be labeled and that consumers would be cheated. Still others stated that removing the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d is deceitful, would allow harmful chemicals to be hidden in food, and would not protect consumers.\nThe final rule will not result in the declaration of non-nutritive sweeteners being removed from labels and will not result in substances being hidden in food. In accordance with \u00a7\u2009101.4(a) (21 CFR 101.4(a)), ingredients (including non-nutritive sweeteners) must be declared by common or usual name on either the principal display panel or the information panel of the label. Thus, for example, the ingredient panel must list any non-nutritive sweeteners, including, for example, the three saccharin products currently subject to \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 and any of the newer non-nutritive sweeteners such as sucralose. What the final rule will do is require any food products currently subject to \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 to instead be subject to \u00a7\u2009130.10. Although \u00a7\u2009130.10 does not require products to declare the presence of non-nutritive sweeteners within the name of these foods (e.g., \u00a7\u2009130.10 does not require a jam made with a non-nutritive sweetener to be named \u201cartificially sweetened jam\u201d), it does require foods subject to that provision to be named by use of a nutrient content claim defined in part 101 (e.g., \u201creduced calorie\u201d or \u201cno sugar added\u201d). Nutrient content claims such as \u201clow calorie\u201d or \u201cno sugar added\u201d better characterize the nutritional profile of the fruit spreads currently subject to \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 than does the term \u201cartificially sweetened.\u201d The final rule will also allow better comparison to other jams, jellies, and preserves currently modified under the provisions of \u00a7\u2009130.10. For example, under current requirements, a jelly that is sweetened with saccharin must be called \u201cartificially sweetened jelly\u201d (in accordance with \u00a7\u2009150.141), whereas a similar jelly sweetened with sucralose may be named as \u201creduced sugar jelly\u201d (in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10 and provided it meets the requirements for the nutrient content claim \u201creduced sugar\u201d in \u00a7\u2009101.60(c)(5) to distinguish it from the standardized food (jelly in \u00a7\u2009150.140). Revoking the standards will provide consistency and uniformity among such products because all fruit spreads sweetened with non-nutritive sweeteners will be subject to the same requirements. For these reasons, the final rule will promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers consistent with section 401 of the FD&C Act.\nAs for the comment that artificial sweeteners are \u201ctoxic\u201d or \u201cdangerous,\u201d that comment does not address the merits of revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161.\nIII. Analysis of Impacts\nWe have examined the impacts of the final rule under Executive Order 12866, Executive Order 13563, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), and the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4). Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct Agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, when regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety, and other advantages; distributive impacts; and equity). The Agency believes that this final rule is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.\nThe Regulatory Flexibility Act requires Agencies to analyze regulatory options that would minimize any significant impact of a rule on small entities. Because we have concluded, as set forth in this document, that this rule will not generate significant compliance costs, we certify that the final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.\nSection 202(a) of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 requires that Agencies prepare a written statement, which includes an assessment of anticipated costs and benefits, before proposing \u201cany rule that includes any Federal mandate that may result in the expenditure by State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of $100,000,000 or more (adjusted annually for inflation) in any one year.\u201d The current threshold after adjustment for inflation is $144 million, using the most current (2014) Implicit Price Deflator for the Gross Domestic Product. We do not expect this final rule to result in any 1-year expenditure that would meet or exceed this amount.\nA. Need for This Regulation\nWe are revoking the standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly, preserves, and jams because these standards are obsolete and unnecessary. The current standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly (\u00a7\u2009150.141) and artificially sweetened preserves and jams (\u00a7\u2009150.161) provide that they may be manufactured only with specific, non-nutritive artificial sweeteners: Saccharin, sodium saccharin, calcium saccharin, or any combination thereof. These standards of identity, therefore, do not permit the use of newer, safe, and suitable artificial sweeteners, such as sucralose.\nThe development of newer artificial sweeteners and the enactment of the NLEA have made the current standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly, preserves, and jams obsolete. The NLEA and \u00a7\u2009130.10 permit the modification of a traditional standardized food to achieve a nutrition goal, such as a reduction in calories. Section 130.10(d)(1) allows the addition of safe and suitable ingredients to a food named by use of a nutrient content claim and a standardized term when these ingredients are used to, among other things, add sweetness to ensure that the modified food is not inferior in performance characteristic to the standardized food, even if such ingredients are not specifically provided for by the relevant food standard.\nStandardized jelly and standardized preserves and jams products modified under \u00a7\u2009130.10 must use nutrient content claims to communicate the modified standardized product's nutritional profile to consumers. Under \u00a7\u2009130.10, nonspecific, safe, and suitable artificial sweeteners other than the three named in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 can be used to make reduced calorie or reduced sugar products labeled with a nutrient content claim that is established in FDA regulations. Revoking the standards of identity means that any product subject to \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 will instead be subject to \u00a7\u2009130.10. This will allow consumers to better compare any fruit spreads currently covered by \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 with other spreads that are named and modified under the provisions of \u00a7\u2009130.10. Revoking the standards also gives manufacturers the flexibility to use the three non-nutritive sweeteners listed in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161, while naming their products under \u00a7\u2009130.10 using a defined nutrient content claim.\nB. Regulatory Options\nIn assessing our regulatory options, we considered the option of taking no action and the option of implementing this final rule. We conclude that the rule is not an economically significant regulatory action. We are not quantitatively estimating the benefits and costs of the regulatory alternatives to the rule. In the following paragraphs, we qualitatively compare the costs and benefits of the regulatory options to the costs and benefits of the rule.\n1. The Option of Taking No Action\nBy convention, we treat the option of taking no new regulatory action as the baseline for determining the costs and benefits of the other options. Therefore, we associate neither costs nor benefits with this option. The consequences of taking no action are reflected in the costs and benefits associated with taking the action set forth in this rule.\n2. The Option of Implementing the Final Rule\nBy revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161, products that are currently subject to the requirements of these standards of identity will no longer be required to use the phrase \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d as part of their product name. Furthermore, revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 means that these same products will be permitted to bear nutrient content claims along with a standardized term (e.g., \u201creduced calorie jelly\u201d or \u201cno sugar added jam\u201d), in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10.\nThe costs of this rule result from the need to relabel any existing jelly, preserves, and jams that conform with \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161. Any products currently manufactured in accordance with the standards in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 will have to be relabeled in order to comply with \u00a7\u2009130.10. Our review of supermarket scanner data for the years 2001 through 2010, however, revealed that no such products are currently being sold. Sales for products manufactured and labeled in accordance with \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 were last reported in 2002. A memorandum summarizing the results of this scanner data can be found in Reference 1. The data support our conclusion that most manufacturers most likely have discontinued production of jelly, preserves, and jams that must be labeled as \u201cartificially sweetened,\u201d presumably because of a perception that the phrase \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d is unattractive to consumers. The data also support our conclusion that it is unlikely that the rule will generate significant compliance costs due to the need to relabel products. In fact, removal of the artificially sweetened standards of identity will allow manufacturers to re-introduce products covered under \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 to be sold as products covered by \u00a7\u2009130.10. That is, such products would be named by use of a nutrient content claim in conjunction with a standardized term (e.g., \u201creduced calorie jelly\u201d or \u201cno sugar added jam\u201d), in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10. Therefore, we conclude that any relabeling compliance costs will be negligible.\nWe do not classify as anticipated costs of this rule any expenses that firms might voluntarily incur if they choose to change their product formulas or manufacturing practices. Any such costs are not costs that would be required by the rule. Instead, these costs would result from voluntary business decisions made by manufacturers.\nWe conclude that the principal benefits that will result from the rule derive from increased information and flexibility. Revoking the artificially sweetened standards of identity will provide producers of jelly, preserves, and jams with the flexibility to use saccharin, sodium saccharin, calcium saccharin, or any combination thereof, in their formulations without having to include the term \u201cartificially sweetened\u201d in their product names. Manufacturers could instead name their products in accordance with approved nutrient content claims, as provided for under \u00a7\u2009130.10, thus providing consumers with additional information about the nutritional profile of affected products. Additionally, revoking \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 will help consumers compare products covered by the standards with other similar jelly, preserves, and jams manufactured in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10.\nAccordingly, while we do not quantify the costs and benefits of the rule, we conclude that potential benefits will outweigh any potential costs associated with the rule.\nThe Regulatory Flexibility Act requires Agencies to analyze regulatory options that would minimize any significant impact of a rule on small entities. Because compliance costs, if any, generated by this rule are expected to be negligible, we conclude that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The following analysis, in conjunction with the discussion in this document, constitutes our final regulatory flexibility analysis as required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act.\nThe rule revokes the standards of identity for artificially sweetened jelly, preserves, and jams. The revocation of these artificially sweetened standards of identity gives small fruit spread firms the flexibility to use the three non-nutritive sweeteners listed in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009150.141 and 150.161 and to name their products with FDA-defined nutrient content claims in accordance with \u00a7\u2009130.10, as is currently done for fruit spread products manufactured with other non-nutritive sweeteners.\nWe do not classify as costs of this rule any expenses that some small firms might voluntarily incur because they choose to change their product formulas or manufacturing practices. As discussed in this document, any such costs would not be costs required by this rule.\nIV. Federalism\nWe have analyzed this final rule in accordance with the principles set forth in Executive Order 13132. Section 4(a) of the Executive Order requires Agencies to \u201cconstrue a Federal statute to preempt State law only where the statute contains an express preemption provision or there is some other clear evidence that the Congress intended preemption of State law, or where the exercise of State authority conflicts with the exercise of Federal authority under the Federal statute.\u201d\nSection 403A of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 343-1) is an express preemption provision. Section 403A(a) of the FD&C Act provides that no State or political subdivision of a State may directly or indirectly establish under any authority or continue in effect as to any food in interstate commerce any requirement for a food which is the subject of a standard of identity established under section 401 (of the FD&C Act) that is not identical to such standard of identity or that is not identical to the requirement of section 403(g) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 343(g)). The express preemption provision of section 403A(a) of the FD&C Act does not preempt any State or local requirement respecting a statement in the labeling of food that provides for a warning concerning the safety of the food or component of the food (section 6(c)(2) of the NLEA, Pub. L. 101-535, 104 Stat. 2353, 2364 (1990)).\nThis final rule will impose requirements that fall within the scope of section 403A(a) of the FD&C Act.\nThis final rule contains no collection of information. Therefore, clearance by Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 is not required.\nThe following reference is on display in the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852 and is available for viewing by interested persons between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday; it is also available electronically at http://www.regulations.gov.

[FR Doc. 2015-29631 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4164-01-P DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration 21 CFR Part 872 [Docket No. FDA-2014-N-1243] Dental Devices; Reclassification of Electrical Salivary Stimulator System AGENCY:\nThe Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing a final order to reclassify the salivary stimulator system, a postamendments Class III device, into class II (special controls) and to rename the device the \u201celectrical salivary stimulator system.\u201d The Agency is classifying the device into class II (special controls) in order to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the device.\nThis order is effective December 21, 2015.\nMichael Ryan, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 1615, Silver Spring, MD 20993, 301-796-6283.\nThe Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act), as amended, 21 U.S.C. 301 et seq., establishes a comprehensive system for the regulation of medical devices intended for human use. Section 513 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360c) established three categories (classes) of devices, reflecting the regulatory controls needed to provide reasonable assurance of their safety and effectiveness. The three categories of devices are class I (general controls), class II (special controls), and class III (premarket approval).\nDevices that were not in commercial distribution prior to May 28, 1976 (generally referred to as postamendments devices) are automatically classified by section 513(f)(1) of the FD&C Act into class III without any FDA rulemaking process. Those devices remain in class III and require premarket approval unless, and until, the device is reclassified into class I or II, or FDA issues an order finding the device to be substantially equivalent, in accordance with section 513(i) of the FD&C Act, to a predicate device that does not require premarket approval. The Agency determines whether new devices are substantially equivalent to predicate devices by means of premarket notification procedures in section 510(k) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)) and part 807 (21 CFR part 807).\nA postamendments device that has been initially classified in class III under section 513(f)(1) of the FD&C Act may be reclassified into class I or class II under section 513(f)(3) of the FD&C Act. Section 513(f)(3) provides that FDA acting by order can reclassify the device into class I or class II on its own initiative, or in response to a petition from the manufacturer or importer of the device. To change the classification of the device, the proposed new class must have sufficient regulatory controls to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device for its intended use.\nReevaluation of the data previously before the Agency is an appropriate basis for subsequent action where the reevaluation is made in light of newly available regulatory authority (see Bell v. Goddard, 366 F.2d 177, 181 (7th Cir. 1966); Ethicon, Inc. v. FDA, 762 F. Supp. 382, 388-391 (D.D.C. 1991)), or in light of changes in \u201cmedical science\u201d (Upjohn v. Finch, 422 F.2d 944, 951 (6th Cir. 1970)). Whether data before the Agency are old or new, the \u201cnew information\u201d to support reclassification under section 513(f)(3) of the FD&C Act must be \u201cvalid scientific evidence\u201d, as defined in section 513(a)(3) and 21 CFR 860.7(c)(2). (See, e.g., General Medical Co. v. FDA, 770 F.2d 214 (D.C. Cir. 1985); Contact Lens Mfrs. Assoc. v. FDA, 766 F.2d 592 (D.C. Cir.1985), cert. denied, 474 U.S. 1062 (1986)).\nFDA relies upon \u201cvalid scientific evidence\u201d in the classification process to determine the level of regulation for devices. To be considered in the reclassification process, the \u201cvalid scientific evidence\u201d upon which the Agency relies must be publicly available. Publicly available information excludes trade secret and/or confidential commercial information, e.g., the contents of a pending premarket approval application (PMA) (see section 520(c) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360j(c)).\nOn September 18, 2014, FDA published an order in the Federal Register to reclassify the device (79 FR 56027) (the \u201cproposed order\u201d). The period for public comment on the proposed order closed on December 17, 2014. FDA received and has considered 20 comments on the proposed order, as discussed in section II.\nII. Public Comments in Response to the Proposed Order\nOf the 20 public comments that FDA received in response to the proposed order, 17 comments supported the proposed reclassification and 3 comments were opposed. All of the commenters were individuals, 12 of whom identified themselves as medical practitioners. Eight of these 12 practitioners claimed prior research experience with the device. Three commenters claimed experience with the device as patients in clinical trials.\nAll of the practitioners' and patients' comments were supportive of the reclassification proposal. All of the practitioners with prior experience administering the device noted favorable results for some of their patients and no adverse events. The other four practitioners who commented either had recommended, or if available would recommend, the device as a non-pharmaceutical option for treating dry mouth conditions.\nFive commenters did not claim any prior professional or patient experience with the device. Of these comments, two favored finalization of the proposed reclassification based on the evidence presented in the proposed order.\nThree comments opposed the proposed reclassification. None of these commenters claimed prior professional or patient experience with the device. One commenter believed that the proposed order adequately addressed safety concerns but failed to provide convincing evidence of the effectiveness of the device.\nFDA disagrees with the comment. The special control requiring documented clinical experience will allow the Agency to require information on each device's effectiveness in actual clinical use.\nTwo commenters believed that the devices should undergo further clinical trials to evaluate device and human factors risks, and that electrically powered salivary stimulators are inherently hazardous and subject to misuse and, without conclusive test results, should continue to be classified as Class III devices and be subject to premarket approval.\nThe Agency disagrees that electrical salivary stimulator systems should remain class III and subject to premarket approval. The Agency believes that the special controls required in this final order provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness for these devices. FDA believes it has identified the risks to health (see section VI of the proposed order) and that the mitigation measures described in the final order will be effective in mitigating the risks described in the two comments, including the risks associated with the low-voltage electrical features of the devices. In particular, the special control requiring documented clinical experience will allow the Agency to require information on each device's safety and effectiveness in actual clinical use, including any human factors risks. These devices utilize technology similar to that used in other class II medical devices such as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators. The Agency believes that its experience with similar devices and the lack of adverse events for salivary stimulators in FDA's Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database and peer-reviewed literature provide sufficient information to establish special controls that mitigated the risks to health identified for this device type in the proposed order.\nThe Agency is making a minor modification to the proposed special controls for electrical salivary stimulator systems by replacing the term \u201cgeometry\u201d in the first special control with the term \u201cdevice design.\u201d FDA makes this revision to clarify the intent of the special control.\nIII. The Final Order\nUnder section 513(f)(3) of the FD&C Act, FDA is adopting its findings as published in the preamble to the proposed order. FDA is issuing this final order to reclassify salivary stimulator system devices from class III to class II, rename them electrical salivary stimulator systems, and establish special controls by revising part 872 (21 CFR part 872).\nSection 510(m) of the FD&C Act provides that FDA may exempt a class II device from the premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act if FDA determines that premarket notification is not necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the devices. FDA has determined that premarket notification is necessary to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of electrical salivary stimulator systems, and therefore, this device type is not exempt from premarket notification requirements.\nThe device is assigned the generic name electrical salivary stimulator system, and it is identified as a prescription intraoral device intended to electrically stimulate a relative increase in saliva production. FDA is identifying the device under this new name to distinguish it from other devices that stimulate saliva flow via non-electrical means.\nUnder this final order, the electrical salivary stimulatory system device is a prescription device restricted to patient use only upon the authorization of a dental practitioner or physician licensed by law to administer or use the device (see 21 CFR 801.109 (Prescription devices)). Prescription-use restrictions are a type of general control defined in section 513(a)(1)(A)(i) of the FD&C Act. The labeling of the device must bear all information required for the safe and effective use of prescription devices as outlined in \u00a7\u2009801.109.\nUnder section 513(f)(3) of the FD&C Act, FDA is adopting its findings as published in the preamble to the proposed order, with the following correction: FDA stated in the proposed order that the Agency utilized section 520(h)(4) of the FD&C Act to review data contained in premarket approval applications (PMAs) approved 6 or more years before the date of the proposed order. The Agency would like to clarify that this language was included unintentionally, and that the provisions of section 520(h)(4) were not utilized in this rulemaking proceeding.\nIV. Environmental Impact, No Significant Impact\nThis final administrative order establishes special controls that refer to previously approved collections of information found in other FDA regulations. These collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The collections of information in part 807, subpart E, regarding premarket notification submissions have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0120, and the collections of information in 21 CFR part 801, regarding labeling, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0485.\nTherefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 321 et seq., as amended) and under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, 21 CFR part 872 is amended as follows:\nPART 872\u2014DENTAL DEVICES 1. The authority citation for 21 CFR part 872 continues to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u2009872.5560 Electrical salivary stimulatory system.\n(a) Identification. An electrical salivary stimulatory system is a prescription intraoral device that is intended to electrically stimulate a relative increase in saliva production.\n(b) Classification\u2014Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:\n(1) The design characteristics of the device must ensure that the device design, material composition, and electrical output characteristics are consistent with the intended use;\n(2) Any element of the device that contacts the patient must be demonstrated to be biocompatible;\n(3) Appropriate analysis and/or testing must validate electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety, including the safety of any battery used in the device;\n(4) Software validation, verification, and hazard testing must be performed; and\n(5) Documented clinical experience must demonstrate safe and effective use for stimulating saliva production by addressing the risks of damage to intraoral tissue and of ineffective treatment and must capture any adverse events observed during clinical use.\nDated: November 13, 2015.

The special controls that will apply to the device are identified in this order and will be part of the codified language for the UV radiation chamber disinfection device classification. The Agency is classifying the device into class II (special controls) in order to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the device.\nThis order is effective November 20, 2015. The classification was applicable on December 20, 2011.\nElizabeth Claverie, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 2508, Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-796-6298.\nIn accordance with section 513(f)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360c(f)(1)), devices that were not in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976 (the date of enactment of the Medical Device Amendments of 1976), generally referred to as postamendments devices, are classified automatically by statute into class III without any FDA rulemaking process. These devices remain in class III and require premarket approval, unless and until the device is classified or reclassified into class I or II, or FDA issues an order finding the device to be substantially equivalent, in accordance with section 513(i) of the FD& C Act, to a predicate device that does not require premarket approval. The Agency determines whether new devices are substantially equivalent to predicate devices by means of premarket notification procedures in section 510(k) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)) and part 807 (21 CFR part 807) of the regulations.\nSection 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act, as amended by section 607 of the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (Pub. L. 112-144), provides two procedures by which a person may request FDA to classify a device under the criteria set forth in section 513(a)(1) of the FD&C Act. Under the first procedure, the person submits a premarket notification under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act for a device that has not previously been classified and, within 30 days of receiving an order classifying the device into class III under section 513(f)(1) of the FD&C Act, the person requests a classification under section 513(f)(2) . Under the second procedure, rather than first submitting a premarket notification under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act and then a request for classification under the first procedure, the person determines that there is no legally marketed device upon which to base a determination of substantial equivalence and requests a classification under section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act. If the person submits a request to classify the device under this second procedure, FDA may decline to undertake the classification request if FDA identifies a legally marketed device that could provide a reasonable basis for review of substantial equivalence with the device or if FDA determines that the device submitted is not of \u201clow-moderate risk\u201d or that general controls would be inadequate to control the risks and special controls to mitigate the risks cannot be developed.\nIn response to a request to classify a device under either procedure provided by section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act, FDA will classify the device by written order within 120 days. This classification will be the initial classification of the device. In accordance with section 513(f)(1) of the FD&C Act, FDA issued an order on October 28, 2010, classifying the Vioguard Self-Sanitizing Keyboard into class III, because it was not substantially equivalent to a device that was introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce for commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or a device which was subsequently reclassified into class I or class II. On November 2, 2010, Vioguard submitted a request for classification of the Vioguard Self-Sanitizing Keyboard under section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act. The manufacturer recommended that the device be classified into class II (Ref. 1).\nIn accordance with section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act, FDA reviewed the request in order to classify the device under the criteria for classification set forth in section 513(a)(1) of the FD&C Act. FDA classifies devices into class II if general controls by themselves are insufficient to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness, but there is sufficient information to establish special controls to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device for its intended use. After review of the information submitted in the request, FDA determined that the device can be classified into class II with the establishment of special controls. FDA believes these special controls will provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device.\nFollowing the effective date of this final classification order, any firm submitting a premarket notification (510(k)) for a UV radiation chamber disinfection device will need to comply with the special controls named in this final order. The device is assigned the generic name UV radiation chamber disinfection device, and it is identified as a UV chamber disinfection device intended for the low-level surface disinfection of non-porous equipment surfaces by dose-controlled UV irradiation. This classification does not include self-contained open chamber UV disinfection devices intended for whole room disinfection in a health care environment.\nFDA has identified the following risks to health associated specifically with this type of device, as well as the mitigation measures required to mitigate these risks in table 1.\nTable 1\u2014Ultraviolet Radiation Chamber Disinfection Device Risks and Mitigation Measures Identified risks Mitigation measures Inadequate Equipment Disinfection Performance Testing.

Software Verification and Validation.\nFDA believes that the special controls in \u00a7\u2009880.6600(b)(1) through (4), in addition to the general controls, address these risks to health and provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness.\nSection 510(m) of the FD&C Act provides that FDA may exempt a class II device from the premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, if FDA determines that premarket notification is not necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device. For this type of device, FDA has determined that premarket notification is necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device. Therefore, this device type is not exempt from premarket notification requirements. Persons who intend to market this type of device must submit to FDA a premarket notification, prior to marketing the device, which contains information about the UV radiation chamber disinfection device they intend to market.\nThe following reference is on display in the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) and is available for viewing by interested persons between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday; it is also available electronically at http://www.regulations.gov.\n1.

[FR Doc. 2015-29660 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4164-01-P DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration 21 CFR Part 890 [Docket No. FDA-2015-P-1197] Medical Devices; Exemption From Premarket Notification; Class II Devices; Electric Positioning Chair AGENCY:\nThe Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is publishing an order granting a petition requesting exemption from premarket notification requirements for electric positioning chair devices. An electric positioning chair is a device with a motorized positioning control that is intended for medical purposes and that can be adjusted to various positions. These devices are used to provide stability for patients with athetosis (involuntary spasms) and to alter postural positions. This order exempts electric positioning chairs, class II devices, from premarket notification, subject to certain conditions for exemption. This exemption from premarket notification, subject to these conditions (and the limitations in the physical medicine devices limitations of exemptions from premarket notification section of the device regulations), is immediately in effect for electric positioning chairs. FDA is publishing this order in accordance with the exemption from class II premarket notification section of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act).\nThis order is effective November 20, 2015.\nJohn Marszalek, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 1427, Silver Spring, MD 20993, 301-796-7067.\nSection 510(k) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)) and its implementing regulations (21 CFR part 807) require persons who propose to begin the introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce for commercial distribution of a device intended for human use to submit a premarket notification (510(k)) to FDA. The device may not be marketed until FDA finds it \u201csubstantially equivalent\u201d within the meaning of section 513(i) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360c(i)) to a legally marketed device that does not require premarket approval.\nOn November 21, 1997, the President signed into law the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997 (FDAMA). Section 206 of FDAMA added section 510(m) to the FD&C Act. Section 510(m)(1) of the FD&C Act requires FDA, within 60 days after enactment of FDAMA, to publish in the Federal Register a list of each type of class II device that does not require a report under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Section 510(m) of the FD&C Act further provides that a 510(k) will no longer be required for these devices upon the date of publication of the list in the Federal Register. FDA published that list in the Federal Register of January 21, 1998 (63 FR 3142).\nSection 510(m)(2) of the FD&C Act provides that FDA may exempt a device from premarket notification requirements on its own initiative, or upon petition of an interested person, if FDA determines that a 510(k) is not necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of the device. This section requires FDA to publish in the Federal Register a notice of intent to exempt a device, or of the petition, and to provide a 30-day comment period. FDA must publish in the Federal Register its final determination regarding the exemption of the device that was the subject of the notice. If FDA fails to respond to a petition under this section within 180 days of receiving it, the petition shall be deemed granted.\nThere are a number of factors FDA may consider to determine whether a 510(k) is necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of a class II device. These factors are discussed in the guidance that the Agency issued on February 19, 1998, entitled \u201cProcedures for Class II Device Exemptions From Premarket Notification, Guidance for Industry and CDRH Staff\u201d (Class II 510(k) Exemption Guidance). That guidance can be obtained through the Internet on the Center for Devices and Radiological Health home page at http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/ucm080198.htm or by sending an email request to [email protected] to receive a copy of the document. Please use the document number 159 to identify the guidance you are requesting.\nElectric positioning chairs are devices with a motorized positioning control that are intended for medical purposes and that can be adjusted to various positions. Existing legally marketed devices have identified a range of specific procedures or conditions for which an electric positioning chair could be used to provide stability and to alter postural positions (e.g., muscular dystrophy, Parkinson's syndrome, or joint replacements). The devices are primarily intended to provide stability and a controlled lift from a seated position to a standing position, while supporting the patient's weight (alter postural positions). The device consists of a frame (where the user would sit) and a lift mechanism, and may also allow the patient to recline in the device.\nIV. Petition\nOn April 10, 2015, FDA received a petition requesting an exemption from premarket notification for electric positioning chair devices. (See Docket No. FDA-2015-P-1197.) These devices are currently classified under 21 CFR 890.3110 Electric positioning chair.\nIn the Federal Register of June 12, 2015 (80 FR 33525), FDA published a notice announcing that this petition had been received and provided opportunity for interested persons to submit comments on the petition by July 13, 2015. FDA received no comments.\nFDA has assessed the need for 510(k) clearance for this type of device using the criteria laid out in the Class II 510(k) Exemption Guidance and in the January 21, 1998, notice (63 FR 3142 at 3143). Based on its review, FDA believes that premarket notification is not necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of the device, as long as certain conditions are met. FDA believes that the risks posed by the device (such as instability, entrapment, use error, falls and associated injuries, battery/electrical/mechanical failure, pressure sores, bruising, burns, electric shock, and electromagnetic incompatibility/interference) and the characteristics of the device necessary for its safe and effective performance (such as safety features, weight capacity, power source, drive mechanism/actuator, and user controls) are well established. Moreover, FDA believes that changes in the device that could affect safety and effectiveness will be readily detectable by certain types of routine analysis and non-clinical testing, such as those detailed in certain consensus standards. Therefore, after reviewing the petition, FDA has determined that premarket notification is not necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of electric positioning chairs, as long as the conditions for 510(k) exemption in section V are met. FDA responded to the petition by letter dated October 9, 2015, to inform the petitioner of this decision within the 180-day timeframe under section 510(m)(2) of the FD&C Act.\nV. Conditions for Exemption\nThis final order provides conditions for exemption from premarket notification. The following conditions must be met for the device to be 510(k)-exempt: (1) Appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate that the safety controls are adequate to ensure safe use of the device and prevent user falls from the device in the event of a device failure; (2) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate the ability of the device to withstand the rated user weight load with an appropriate factor of safety; (3) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate the longevity of the device to withstand external forces applied to the device and provide the user with an expected service life of the device; (4) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must demonstrate proper environments of use and storage of the device to maximize the longevity of the device; (5) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1: \u201cMedical Electrical Equipment\u2014Part 1: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance,\u201d and ANSI/AAMI/IEC 60601-1-2, \u201cMedical Electrical Equipment\u2014Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance\u2014Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Disturbances\u2014Requirements and Tests\u201d) must validate electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety; (6) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-1, \u201cBiological Evaluation of Medical Devices\u2014Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process,\u201d ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-5, \u201cBiological Evaluation of Medical Devices\u2014Part 5: Tests for In Vitro Cytotoxicity,\u201d and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-10, \u201cBiological Evaluation of Medical Devices\u2014Part 10: Tests for Irritation and Skin Sensitization\u201d) must validate that the skin-contacting components of the device are biocompatible; (7) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions of IEC 62304, \u201cMedical Device Software\u2014Software Life Cycle Processes\u201d) must validate the software life cycle and that all processes, activities, and tasks are implemented and documented; (8) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must validate that the device components are found to be non-flammable; (9) appropriate analysis and non-clinical testing must validate that the battery in the device (if applicable) performs as intended over the anticipated service life of the device; and (10) adequate patient labeling is provided to the user to document proper use and maintenance of the device to ensure safe use of the device by the patient in the intended use environment.\nFirms are now exempt from 510(k) requirements for electric positioning chairs as long as they meet these conditions of exemption, subject to the limitations in 21 CFR 890.9. Firms must comply with the conditions for exemption or submit and receive clearance for a 510(k) prior to marketing.\nThis final order refers to previously approved collections of information found in FDA regulations. These collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The collections of information in 21 CFR part 801, regarding medical device labeling, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0485 and the collections of information in 21 CFR part 820, regarding the quality system regulation, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0073.\nMedical devices, Physical medicine devices.\nPART 890\u2014PHYSICAL MEDICINE DEVICES 1.

[FR Doc. 2015-29633 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4164-01-P DEPARTMENT OF STATE 22 CFR Parts 22 and 51 [Public Notice: 9350] RIN 1400-AD76 Elimination of Visa Page Insert Service for U.S. Passport Book Holders AGENCY:\nOn April 29, 2015, the Department of State published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that proposed eliminating the visa page insert service for regular fee passport book holders beginning January 1, 2016. The Department is finalizing the proposed rule without change.\nMichael Holly, Passport Services, Bureau of Consular Affairs; 202-485-6373: [email protected]\nOn April 29, 2015, the Department of State published a NPRM that proposed eliminating the visa page insert service for regular fee passport book holders beginning January 1, 2016. See 80 FR 23754. As explained in the NPRM, the effective date of this rule coincides with when the Department expects to begin issuing an updated version of the Next Generation Passport book. The primary reason for eliminating visa page inserts is to protect the integrity of the Next Generation Passport books. Further discussion of the reasons for the rule is in the NRPM.\nThe Department received only one public comment in response to the notice of proposed rulemaking. The following analysis addresses the comment.\nThe commenter expressed concern that eliminating visa page inserts would be a considerable inconvenience. The commenter wrote that due to the extent of his travels, eliminating visa page inserts would require him to renew his passport every three or four years, even if he is issued the larger 52-page passport book. The commenter also wrote that running out of visa pages in his passport would cause some of his multi-year visas to expire, requiring him to renew his visas early or possibly carry his expired U.S. passport until the visas in it expire.\nThe Department recognizes that eliminating visa page inserts may pose an inconvenience to a very small number of U.S. passport holders whose travel requires the issuance of multiple visas. The Department has a policy in place to permit the issuance of a second regular fee passport to individuals who require their first passport books for travel while their visa applications are pending with foreign governments. (See 7 FAM 1310 Appendix R c(2) http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/94669.pdf).\nThe commenter questioned if visa page inserts present a genuine security concern. As described in the NPRM, an interagency working group studied the issue and determined that the elimination of visa page inserts added value to the security features of visa page inserts that far outweighed the inconvenience caused by the elimination of this service, for which there is very limited demand.\nFinally, the problems the commenter describes are very rare among U.S. passport holders. The average U.S. passport holder uses six or fewer visa pages. Ninety-seven percent of all U.S. passport holders will have used 17 pages or less by the time they renew their passports. Less than one percent of U.S. passport holders will have used more than 32 pages when they renew their passports. On average, people who apply for visa page inserts for a U.S. passport do so seven years after the passport was issued and 17 percent of these individuals had the smaller passport book to begin with. Accordingly, while the Department certainly understands the commenter's concerns, it still expects the overall impact of this rule on U.S. passport holders to be minimal, and to be outweighed by the security concerns discussed in the NPRM.\nThe Regulatory Findings included in the NPRM are incorporated herein.

This deviation allows the bridge to remain in the closed-to-navigation position to facilitate the annual Chesapeake Christmas Parade.\nThis deviation is effective from 4 p.m. on December 5, 2015 until 10 p.m. on December 5, 2015.\nIf you have questions on this temporary deviation, call or email Mr. Hal R. Pitts, Bridge Administration Branch Fifth District, Coast Guard; telephone (757) 398-6222, email [email protected]\nThe City of Chesapeake, VA, who owns and operates the S168 Bridge, has requested a temporary deviation from the current operating regulations to facilitate the annual Chesapeake Christmas Parade. The bridge is a double bascule draw bridge and has a vertical clearance in the closed position of 8 feet above mean high water.\nThe current operating schedule is set out in 33 CFR 117.997(g). Under this temporary deviation, the bridge will remain in the closed-to-navigation position from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. on December 5, 2015. The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal is used by a variety of vessels including U.S. government vessels, small commercial vessels, recreational vessels and tug and barge traffic. The Coast Guard has carefully coordinated the restrictions with commercial and recreational waterway users.\nVessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may do so at anytime. The bridge will be able to open for emergencies and the Atlantic Ocean is the alternate route for vessels unable to pass through the bridge in the closed position. The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterways through our Local and Broadcast Notice to Mariners of the change in operating schedule for the bridge so that vessels can arrange their transits to minimize any impacts caused by this temporary deviation.\nDated: November 16, 2015.

What direct final SNURs are being withdrawn?\nIn the Federal Register of October 2, 2015, EPA issued direct final SNURs for the chemical substances that are identified in this document. These direct final SNURs were issued under the procedures in 40 CFR part 721, subpart D. Because the Agency received notices of intent to submit adverse comments, in accordance with \u00a7\u2009721.160(c)(3)(ii), EPA is withdrawing the direct final SNURs issued for the following chemical substances, which were the subject of PMNs: Isocyanate prepolymer (generic), (PMN No. P-15-221); methylene diisocyanate polymer with diols and triols (generic), (PMN No. P-15-247); and polymer of isophorone diisocyanate and amine-terminated propoxylatedpolyol (generic), (PMN No. P-15-278). EPA intends to publish proposed SNURs for the chemical substances identified in this document.\nFor further information regarding EPA's direct final rulemaking procedures for issuing SNURs, see 40 CFR part 721, subpart D, and the Federal Register of July 27, 1989 (54 FR 31314).\nThis action withdraws regulatory requirements that have not gone into effect and which contain no new or amended requirements. As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have any adverse impacts, economic or otherwise. The statutory and Executive Order review requirements applicable to the direct final rule were discussed in the Federal Register of October 2, 2015.

Also, EPA is modifying certain tolerances for the fungicides mancozeb, thiram, and triflumizole. In addition, EPA is establishing new tolerances for the fungicide mancozeb. Also, in accordance with current Agency practice, EPA is making minor revisions to the tolerance expressions for mepiquat and thiram. In addition, EPA is restoring the listings of tolerances on bulb onion and pear for methomyl residues to remedy inadvertent drafting errors and cover existing registrations. EPA is deferring a decision on the malathion tolerances at this time.\nThis regulation is effective May 18, 2016, except for the amendments to 40 CFR 180.253 (the restorations of the bulb onion and pear tolerances for methomyl), which are effective November 20, 2015. Objections and requests for hearings must be received on or before January 19, 2016, and must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).\nUnder the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) section 408(g), 21 U.S.C. 346a, any person may file an objection to any aspect of this regulation and may also request a hearing on those objections. You must file your objection or request a hearing on this regulation in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR part 178. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, you must identify docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPP-2014-0194 in the subject line on the first page of your submission. All objections and requests for a hearing must be in writing, and must be received by the Hearing Clerk on or before January 19, 2016. Addresses for mail and hand delivery of objections and hearing requests are provided in 40 CFR 178.25(b).\nIn the Federal Register of July 11, 2014 (79 FR 40043) (FRL-9910-45), EPA issued a proposed rule, in follow-up to canceled uses, to revoke specific tolerances for amitraz, carfentrazone-ethyl, ethephon, mepiquat, oxamyl, propetamphos, quizalofop ethyl, spinosad, spiroxamine, and triflumizole. Also, because rice straw is no longer considered by the Agency to be a significant feed item, EPA proposed to revoke the tolerance on rice straw for multiple active ingredients. In follow-up to reregistration, EPA proposed to modify tolerances for malathion and mancozeb, and also establish tolerances for mancozeb, and post-reregistration follow-up to modify specific tolerances for thiram and triflumizole. In addition, the Agency proposed minor revisions to the tolerance expressions for malathion, mepiquat, and thiram. The proposal provided a 60-day comment period.\nSince the proposed rule, in the Federal Register of March 27, 2015 (80 FR 16302) (FRL-9924-86), the Agency published a final rule that removed the expiration/revocation date for the thiram tolerance in 40 CFR 180.132 on banana at 0.80 parts per million (ppm) for thiram residues. Also, in the Federal Register of June 19, 2015 (80 FR 35249) (FRL-9928-82), the Agency published a final rule that established a thiram tolerance in 40 CFR 180.132 on avocado at 15 ppm for thiram residues.\nEPA is finalizing specific mancozeb tolerance actions in order to implement the tolerance recommendations made during the reregistration and tolerance reassessment processes (including follow-up on canceled or additional uses of pesticides). As part of these processes, EPA is required to determine whether each of the amended tolerances meets the safety standard of FFDCA. The safety finding determination of \u201creasonable certainty of no harm\u201d is discussed in detail in each Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) and Report on FQPA Tolerance Reassessment Progress and Interim Risk Management Decision (TRED) for the active ingredient. REDs and TREDs recommend the implementation of certain tolerance actions, including modifications, to reflect current use patterns, to meet safety findings and change commodity names and groupings in accordance with new EPA policy. Printed copies of many REDs and TREDs may be obtained from EPA's National Service Center for Environmental Publications (EPA/NSCEP), P.O. Box 42419, Cincinnati, OH 45242-2419; telephone number: (800) 490-9198; fax number: (513) 489-8695; Internet at http://www.epa.gov/ncepihom and from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Rd., Springfield, VA 22161; telephone number: (800) 553-6847 or (703) 605-6000; Internet at http://www.ntis.gov. Electronic copies of REDs and TREDs are available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov and http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/status.htm.\nIn this final rule, EPA is revoking certain tolerances and/or tolerance exemptions because either they are no longer needed or are associated with food uses that are no longer registered under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) in the United States. Those instances where registrations were canceled were because the registrant failed to pay the required maintenance fee and/or the registrant voluntarily requested cancellation of one or more registered uses of the pesticide active ingredient. The tolerances revoked by this final rule are no longer necessary to cover residues of the relevant pesticides in or on domestically treated commodities or commodities treated outside but imported into the United States. It is EPA's general practice to issue a final rule revoking those tolerances and tolerance exemptions for residues of pesticide active ingredients on crop uses for which there are no active registrations under FIFRA, unless any person in comments on the proposal indicates a need for the tolerance or tolerance exemption to cover residues in or on imported commodities or legally treated domestic commodities.\nEPA has historically been concerned that retention of tolerances that are not necessary to cover residues in or on legally treated foods may encourage misuse of pesticides within the United States.\nGenerally, EPA will proceed with the revocation of these tolerances on the grounds discussed in Unit II.A. if one of the following conditions applies:\n1. Prior to EPA's issuance of a FFDCA section 408(f) order requesting additional data or issuance of a FFDCA section 408(d) or (e) order revoking the tolerances on other grounds, commenters retract the comment identifying a need for the tolerance to be retained.\n2. EPA independently verifies that the tolerance is no longer needed.\n3. The tolerance is not supported by data that demonstrate that the tolerance meets the requirements under the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA).\nThis final rule does not revoke those tolerances for which EPA received comments stating a need for the tolerance to be retained. Among the comments received by EPA, are the following:\n1. General\u2014i. Comment by private citizen. An anonymous comment was received which expressed concerns about the toxicity of pesticides in general.\nAgency response. The commenter did not take issue with the Agency's specific conclusions to revoke, modify, establish tolerances, or revise tolerance expressions. Also, the commenter did not refer to any specific studies which pertain to those conclusions. The Agency has not changed its previous determination that the tolerances in question are safe and is therefore not making any changes in response to these comments.\n2. Specific chemical comments\u2014i. Oxamyl-Comment by DuPont Crop Protection. The commenter requested that the soybean seed tolerance for oxamyl be retained for possible future actions. DuPont noted that since the soybean use was deleted from oxamyl labels in 2006 via EPA's approval of its request for voluntary cancellation, growers have experienced an increasing need for management of soybean cyst nematode.\nAgency response. The use of oxamyl on soybean was officially canceled under section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1), under which a registrant of a pesticide product may request that the product registration be canceled or amended to terminate one or more uses. Because EPA canceled the soybean use in response to DuPont's request, and no other oxamyl products include a use on soybeans, there is currently no legal use of oxamyl on soybeans. EPA will not retain the tolerance based on the possibility that someone may apply for a new use on soybean in the future. Tolerances are generally maintained for current uses. Therefore, EPA is revoking the tolerance for oxamyl in 40 CFR 180.303(a) on soybean, seed.\nEPA is considering the public comments received on malathion in response to the proposed rule of July 11, 2014 and is thus deferring a decision on the malathion tolerances at this time. The Agency will respond to the comments in a future notice to be published in the Federal Register.\nWith the exception of malathion and oxamyl, the Agency did not receive any specific comments in the docket, during the 60-day comment period, concerning proposed tolerance actions associated with pesticide active ingredients, as described in the Federal Register of July 11, 2014. Therefore, the exceptions of malathion, EPA is finalizing amendments in the proposed rule of July 11, 2014. Also, EPA is maintaining both the establishment of the thiram tolerance on avocado (now in newly codified 40 CFR 180.132(a)(1) for thiram residues), and the removal of the expiration/revocation date on the thiram tolerance on banana (now in newly codified 40 CFR.180.132(a)(2) for carbon disulfide residues). In addition, EPA is finalizing the amendments in the proposed rule of July 11, 2014 for thiram tolerances on apple, banana, peach, and strawberry (now in newly codified 40 CFR 180.132(a)(2) for carbon disulfide residues). For a detailed discussion of the Agency's rationale for the finalized tolerance actions, refer to the proposed rule of July 11, 2014.\nIn this final rule EPA is also making corrections to two unrelated provisions. In the Federal Register of May 9, 2012 (77 FR 27164) (FRL-9345-2), EPA issued a proposed rule covering multiple pesticide active ingredients, including methomyl. In that rule, in order to conform to current Agency practice, EPA proposed to revise the tolerance commodity terminology, in 40 CFR 180.253 for methomyl, for vegetable, root (an outdated term) at 0.2(N) ppm to vegetable, root and tuber, group 1 at 0.2 ppm. Also, EPA proposed to make minor revisions to the tolerance expressions for methomyl in 40 CFR 180.253(a) and (c). In follow-up, EPA promulgated a final rule in the Federal Register of September 26, 2012 (77 FR 59120) (FRL-9358-8) with an effective date of March 25, 2013. However, the outdated tolerance term \u201cvegetable, root\u201d had covered the use on bulb onions. Therefore, the terminology revision by EPA inadvertently removed a tolerance which covered methomyl residues in or on bulb onions. Also, while EPA revised the methomyl tolerance expressions in 180.253(a) and (c), EPA inadvertently removed the table under paragraph (c), which contained an entry for a regional tolerance on pear at 4 ppm. Yet, active registrations for use of methomyl on bulb onions and pears existed at that time and now. Consequently, in this final rule, EPA is restoring coverage for methomyl residues on the bulb onion commodity as an individual tolerance in 40 CFR 180.253(a) for onion, dry bulb at 0.2 ppm and in 40 CFR 180.253(c) on pear at 4 ppm.\nEPA is issuing these tolerance actions for methomyl in this final rule for this purpose without notice and opportunity to comment. Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act provides that notice and comment is not necessary \u201cwhen the agency for good cause finds (and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of reasons therefore in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.\u201d EPA finds good cause here because restoring the listings of tolerance coverages on bulb onion and pear for methomyl residues merely corrects two inadvertent drafting errors. As such, notice and comment is unnecessary.\nEPA may issue a regulation establishing, modifying, or revoking a tolerance under FFDCA section 408(e). In this final rule, EPA is establishing, modifying, and revoking tolerances to implement the tolerance recommendations made in the RED for mancozeb during the reregistration and tolerance reassessment processes, and as follow-up on canceled uses of pesticides.\nC. When do these actions become effective?\nAs stated in the DATES section, this regulation is effective May 18, 2016, except for the restorations of the bulb onion and pear tolerances for methomyl, which are effective November 20, 2015. With the exception of methomyl, for which EPA is restoring tolerances inadvertently removed, EPA is delaying the effective date of these finalized actions to allow a reasonable interval for producers in exporting members of the World Trade Organization's Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures Agreement to adapt to the requirements of a final rule. EPA believes that existing stocks of the canceled or amended pesticide products labeled for the uses associated with the revoked tolerances have been completely exhausted and that treated commodities have had sufficient time for passage through the channels of trade.\nAny commodities listed in the regulatory text of this document that are treated with the pesticides subject to this final rule, and that are in the channels of trade following the tolerance revocations, shall be subject to FFDCA section 408(1)(5), as established by FQPA. Under this unit, any residues of these pesticides in or on such food shall not render the food adulterated so long as it is shown to the satisfaction of the Food and Drug Administration that:\n1. The residue is present as the result of an application or use of the pesticide at a time and in a manner that was lawful under FIFRA.\n2. The residue does not exceed the level that was authorized at the time of the application or use to be present on the food under a tolerance or exemption from tolerance. Evidence to show that food was lawfully treated may include records that verify the dates that the pesticide was applied to such food.\nThe Codex has not established a MRL for carfentrazone-ethyl, mepiquat, propetamphos, quizalofop ethyl, spiroxamine, triflumizole, ethephon in or on cucumber, oxamyl in or on soybean seed, spinosad in or on coriander leaves, or total dithiocarbamates in or on barley bran, barley flour, field corn grain, oat flour, oat grain, rye bran, rye grain, wheat bran, wheat flour, and wheat, shorts.\nThe Codex has established MRLs for total dithiocarbamates determined as carbon disulfide in or on various commodities, including barley and wheat, each at 1 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg). These MRLs are the same as the tolerances finalized for mancozeb in the United States.\nThe Codex has established MRLs for total dithiocarbamates determined as carbon disulfide in or on various commodities, including papaya at 5 mg/kg. This MRL will be covered by a finalized U.S. tolerance at a higher level than the MRL. The MRL is different than the finalized U.S. tolerance for mancozeb in the United States because of differences in residue definition, use patterns, and/or good agricultural practices.\nThe Codex has established a MRL for amitraz in or on various commodities, including cotton seed at 0.5 mg/kg. This MRL is covered by the current U.S. tolerance at a higher level than the MRL, but would no longer be covered due to the revocation of the U.S. tolerance.\nThe Codex has established MRLs for total dithiocarbamates determined as carbon disulfide in or on various commodities, including banana at 2 mg/kg, peach at 7 mg/kg, and strawberry at 5 mg/kg. The MRLs for banana and peach are the same as the U.S. tolerances proposed for thiram in the United States. The MRL for strawberry will be covered by a finalized U.S. tolerance at a higher level than the MRL. The MRL for strawberry is different than the tolerance finalized for thiram in the United States because of differences in use patterns, and/or good agricultural practices.\nIn this final rule, EPA establishes tolerances under FFDCA section 408(e), and also modifies and revokes specific tolerances established under FFDCA section 408. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions (i.e., establishment and modification of a tolerance and tolerance revocation for which extraordinary circumstances do not exist) from review under Executive Order 12866, entitled \u201cRegulatory Planning and Review\u201d (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order 12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled \u201cActions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use\u201d (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This final rule does not contain any information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), or impose any enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.). Nor does it require any special considerations as required by Executive Order 12898, entitled \u201cFederal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations\u201d (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994); or OMB review or any other Agency action under Executive Order 13045, entitled \u201cProtection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks\u201d (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the Agency previously assessed whether establishment of tolerances, exemptions from tolerances, raising of tolerance levels, expansion of exemptions, or revocations might significantly impact a substantial number of small entities and concluded that, as a general matter, these actions do not impose a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. These analyses for tolerance establishments and modifications, and for tolerance revocations were published in the Federal Register on May 4, 1981 (46 FR 24950) and on December 17, 1997 (62 FR 66020) (FRL-5753-1), respectively, and were provided to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration. Taking into account this analysis and available information concerning the pesticides listed in this rule, the Agency hereby certifies that this final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. In a memorandum dated May 25, 2001, EPA determined that eight conditions must all be satisfied in order for an import tolerance or tolerance exemption revocation to adversely affect a significant number of small entity importers, and that there is a negligible joint probability of all eight conditions holding simultaneously with respect to any particular revocation. (This Agency document is available in the docket of the proposed rule). Furthermore, for the pesticides named in this final rule, the Agency knows of no extraordinary circumstances that exist as to the present revocations that would change EPA's previous analysis. In addition, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled \u201cFederalism\u201d (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure \u201cmeaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.\u201d \u201cPolicies that have federalism implications\u201d is defined in the Executive order to include regulations that have \u201csubstantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.\u201d This final rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States. This action does not alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). For these same reasons, the Agency has determined that this rule does not have any \u201ctribal implications\u201d as described in Executive Order 13175, entitled \u201cConsultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments\u201d (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure \u201cmeaningful and timely input by tribal officials in the development of regulatory policies that have tribal implications.\u201d \u201cPolicies that have tribal implications\u201d is defined in the Executive order to include regulations that have \u201csubstantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and the Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.\u201d This rule will not have substantial direct effects on tribal governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, as specified in Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this rule.\n\u00a7\u2009180.132 Thiram; tolerances for residues.\n(a) General.

[FR Doc. 2015-28491 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6560-50-P DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Defense Acquisition Regulations System 48 CFR Parts 212, 225, and 252 [Docket DARS-2015-0024] RIN 0750-AI41 Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Photovoltaic Devices From the United States (DFARS Case 2015-D007) AGENCY:\nDoD is issuing a final rule amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to implement a section of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 that revises the restrictions relating to utilization of domestic photovoltaic devices.\nMs. Amy G. Williams, telephone 571-372-6106; facsimile 571-372-6101.\nDoD published a proposed rule in the Federal Register at 80 FR 30119 on May 26, 2015, to implement section 858 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 (Pub. L. 113-291), which addresses utilization of domestic photovoltaic devices. Three respondents submitted comments on the proposed rule.\nII. Discussion and Analysis A. Summary of Significant Changes From the Proposed Rule\nThere are no significant changes from the proposed rule.\nB. Analysis of Public Comments 1. Trade Agreements Act\nComment: One respondent was very supportive of the exceptions for use of photovoltaic devices from designated countries in acquisitions covered by a Trade agreement. The respondent cited legal reasons for the exception (i.e., section 858 specifically states that the restrictions are \u201csubject to exceptions provided in the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (19 U.S.C. 2501 et seq.) or otherwise provided by law.\u201d In addition, the respondent considered the preservation of the Trade Agreements Act exception critical to the deployment of photovoltaic devices to meet the needs of the DoD market in a timely and cost-efficient manner.\nResponse: Both section 846 and section 858 state that the restrictions are subject to the exceptions provided in the Trade Agreements Act or otherwise provided by law. The Trade Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 2501 et seq.) provides authority for the President to waive the Buy American Act and other discriminatory provisions (e.g., sections 846 and 858) for eligible products from designated countries. This authority has been delegated to the United States Trade Representative (USTR). The USTR has confirmed that the trade agreements provide an exception to the domestic source restrictions of section 858. Since the Trade Agreements Act exception is specifically provided in law, it remains in the final rule.\n2. Covered Contract a. Enhanced Use Leases\nComment: One respondent recommended that DoD should clarify that while the real estate procurement action related to the development of photovoltaic generating assets on DoD land is not subject to the DFARS, the purchase of the output of the photovoltaic devices is (1) a separate procurement action; (2) an acquisition under DoD procurement regulations; and (3) a covered contract under section 858. According to the respondent, DoD may accept the provision of payment of utility services as in-kind consideration for leasing DoD real property interests in an amount not less than the fair market value of the leasehold. Although the respondent agreed that the DFARS does not cover land leases, the respondent asserted that a power purchase agreement for the procurement of power generated from a photovoltaic device located on land awarded through enhanced-use lease (EUL) authority, whether a combined procurement or a separate procurement after the EUL is awarded, is not a real estate transaction, but is a covered contract because it is installed on DoD property and is an acquisition subject to the DFARS.\nResponse: DoD land leases are not governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) or the DFARS, as the FAR system only covers acquisition of supplies and services. The term \u201csupplies\u201d is defined in the FAR as all property except land or interest in land. Therefore, power generated from a photovoltaic device and provided to an installation as in-kind consideration under a land lease is not governed by the FAR, DFARS, or this rule. Real property transactions are addressed under other authorities. To the extent the DoD is contracting for power through a FAR-type contract, this DFARS provision would apply. A separately signed power purchase agreement for the power generated by a photovoltaic device installed on DoD land outgranted under a DoD lease, is (1) a FAR contract and (2) a covered contract for the purposes of this rule.\nb. Off-Site Power Generation\nComment: One respondent recommended that DoD should clarify that section 858 applies to covered contracts awarded by DoD components utilizing photovoltaic devices located on off-site, private property, so long as the photovoltaic devices are reserved for the use of DoD for the full economic life of the device.\nResponse: The final Regulatory Flexibility Act analysis has been revised to clarify that section 858 applies to DoD when purchasing renewable power generated via photovoltaic devices. DoD can either purchase the photovoltaic devices (own, operate and maintain the devices for their full economic life), enter into Energy Savings Performance Contracts, or enter into power purchase agreements for the purchase of the power output from photovoltaic devices that are installed on DoD land or buildings, or off-site on private land.\nc. Need for Trade Agreements Act Exception\nComment: According to one respondent, the broadened definition of \u201ccovered contract\u201d will further enable expansion of the market transition to utility scale procurement of photovoltaic devices for military use. However, the respondent stated that without the Trade Agreements Act exception, the market will not be able to be served in a timely and efficient manner.\nResponse: The Trade Agreements Act exception is specifically provided in law and remains in the final rule.\n3. Definitions a. \u201cDomestic Photovoltaic Device\u201d\nComment: According to one respondent, the modification of the definition of \u201cdomestic photovoltaic device\u201d to include the requirement that the cost of all components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States must exceed 50 percent of the cost of all components, makes the Trade Agreements Act exception even more essential.\nb. \u201cSubstantial Transformation\u201d\nComment: One respondent stated that DoD should amend paragraph (c) of the provision at DFARS 252.225-7018, Photovoltaic Devices\u2014Certificate, to explicitly adopt and apply the Department of Commerce's definition of \u201csubstantial transformation\u201d for photovoltaic devices, stating that substantial transformation of a photovoltaic device takes place in the country where a photovoltaic device's cell is manufactured.\nResponse: The interpretation of \u201csubstantial transformation\u201d is outside the scope of this case. Section 858 did not address or modify the meaning of \u201csubstantial transformation.\u201d Paragraph (c) of the provision at DFARS 252.225-7018 was not included in the Federal Register notice of the proposed rule under this case. The preamble to the proposed rule under this case specifically stated that the previous rule published to clarify this DoD policy will remain unaffected.\nParagraph (c) was added to the provision at DFARS 252.225-7017 under DFARS Case 2014-D006, Photovoltaic Devices, to clarify how offerors should assess the rules of origin for photovoltaic devices to be utilized under covered DoD contracts. Paragraph (c) advises offerors to be consistent with country of origin determinations by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection with regard to importation of the same or similar photovoltaic devices into the United States. If the offeror is uncertain as to the origin of a photovoltaic device, the provision directs the offeror to request a determination from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. It is not within the purview of DoD to make such determinations. DoD published the final rule on April 21, 2014, after consultation with the United States Trade Representative and thorough analysis of the public comments received.\nc. \u201cU.S.-Made Photovoltaic Device\u201d\nComment: One respondent recommended that DoD should revise the definition of U.S.-made photovoltaic device to conform to the other country of origin definitions applicable to photovoltaic devices and require U.S.-made photovoltaic devices to be wholly manufactured or substantially transformed in the United States.\nResponse: The FAR was modified in February 2000 (FAC 97-15) to include the term \u201cU.S.-made end product,\u201d defined to mean an article that is mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States or that is substantially transformed in the United States into a new and different article of commerce with a name, character, or use distinct from that of the article or articles from which it was transformed. This term was introduced to provide an opportunity, when an acquisition is subject to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement, for products made in the United States (which are not designated country end products, and therefore not subject to the trade agreements rules of origin) to compete with designated country end products. Through a public interest class determination, DoD does not apply the Buy American Act to U.S.-made end products if the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement applies. Therefore, when section 846 of the NDAA for FY 2011 required certain covered contracts awarded by DoD to contain a provision requiring the photovoltaic devices provided under the contract to comply with the Buy American Act, subject to the exceptions provided in the Trade Agreements Act of 1979, the DFARS applied the existing public interest class determination to exempt the utilization of U.S.-made photovoltaic devices (treating photovoltaic devices as a specific item fitting within the existing FAR definition of \u201cU.S.-made end products\u201d) from the restrictions of section 846 and the Buy American Act.\n4. Public Interest Determinations a. Impact on Domestic Manufacturing\nComment: One respondent contended that issuing a public interest waiver as a work around to addressing differing documentation requirements between U.S.-based and designated country photovoltaic manufacturers would reduce the desired connection to domestic manufacturing activities, and therefore presents a suboptimal approach.\nResponse: The public interest waiver of section 858 for acquisition of U.S.-made photovoltaic devices was not only to address differing documentation requirements, but to enable acquisition from a broad range of U.S. companies. Section 858 of the NDAA for FY 2015 allows the head of the department concerned to determine, on a case-by-case basis that application of section 858 is not in the public interest. As delegated in this rule, the head of the contracting activity concerned may make such a public interest determination for a variety of reasons. The rule provides a sample determination based on the utilization of a U.S.-made device because this is consistent with existing practice, except that now an individual determination is required each time utilization of U.S.-made devices is proposed. Use of this determination was suggested only when the value of the acquisition exceeds $204,000 and the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement applies. It is in the Government's best interest to foster a competitive environment and encourage manufacturing in the United States.\nb. Time Delay\nComment: One respondent, while recognizing that public interest determinations can provide flexibility, was concerned that obtaining an individual public interest determination on a case-by-case basis could cause delay in project implementation.\nResponse: Section 858 specifically requires approval of public interest determinations on a case-by-case basis. The DFARS rule specifies the head of the contracting activity as approval authority. This approval process is not anticipated to unreasonably delay DoD procurements.\n5. Sanctioned Countries\nComment: One respondent recommended that the rule should ensure that companies from the list of sanctioned countries should be prohibited from undertaking U.S. military solar projects, regardless of where or how the goods are manufactured.\nResponse: Since the FAR and DFARS contain specific implementation of the Office of Foreign Assets Control restrictions and additional title 10, U.S.C., statutory restrictions on contracting with prohibited sources that apply to both DoD prime contractors and to their subcontractors in accordance with flow down provisions, the rule does not need to be modified. Such prohibitions are already effectively implemented in the regulations that apply to contracts awarded by executive branch agencies U.S. Government and to contracts awarded by DoD military departments and defense agencies.\nConsistent with the determinations that DoD made with regard to application of the requirements of section 846 of NDAA for FY 2011, this rule does not apply the requirements of section 858 of the NDAA for FY 2015 to contracts at or below the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), but does apply to contracts for the acquisition of commercial items, including commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) items.\n41 U.S.C. 1905 governs the applicability of laws to contracts or subcontracts in amounts not greater than the simplified acquisition threshold. It is intended to limit the applicability of laws to such contracts or subcontracts. 41 U.S.C. 1905 provides that if a provision of law contains criminal or civil penalties, or if the FAR Council makes a written determination that it is not in the best interest of the Federal Government to exempt contracts or subcontracts at or below the SAT, the law will apply to them. The Director, Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy (DPAP), is the appropriate authority to make comparable determinations for regulations to be published in the DFARS, which is part of the FAR system of regulations. DoD did not make that determination. Therefore, this rule does not apply below the simplified acquisition threshold.\nGiven that the requirements of section 858 of the NDAA for FY 2015 were enacted to promote utilization of domestic photovoltaic devices, and since photovoltaic devices are generally COTS items, DoD has determined that it is in the best interest of the Federal Government to apply the rule to contracts for the acquisition of commercial items, including COTS items, as defined at FAR 2.101. An exception for contracts for the acquisition of commercial items, including COTS items, would exclude the contracts intended to be covered by the law, thereby undermining the overarching public policy purpose of the law.\nThis rule implements section 858 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 (Pub. L. 113-291), by changing the regulatory coverage on utilization of domestic photovoltaic devices under certain covered contracts.\nThe objective of this rule is to further promote utilization of domestic photovoltaic devices under DoD covered contracts, while maintaining compliance with trade agreements, reciprocal defense procurement memoranda of understanding, and DoD policy with regard to the acquisition of designated country photovoltaic devices, qualifying country photovoltaic devices, and U.S.-made photovoltaic devices.\nThere were no significant issues raised by the public comments in response to the initial regulatory flexibility analysis. There was one comment on the terminology used to describe the applicability of the rule to small entities, but this did not impact the numerical analysis or the rule itself.\nThis rule generally applies at the prime contract level to other than small entities. When purchasing renewable power generated via photovoltaic devices, DoD can either purchase the photovoltaic devices and thereby own, operate, and maintain the devices for their full economic life (already covered in DFARS part 225 under standard Buy American Act/Trade Agreements regulations) or, for example, may do some variation of the following:\na. Enter into an energy savings performance contract, which is a contracting method in which the contractor provides capital to facilitate energy savings projects and maintains them in exchange for a portion of the energy savings generated. Under this arrangement, the Government would take title to the devices during contract performance or at the conclusion of the contract. For example, the Defense Logistics Agency-Energy uses the master Department of Energy indefinite delivery-indefinite quantity contract and awards task orders off that contract. Of the 16 contractors, all are large businesses. There are subcontracting goals that each contractor has to meet, but the ultimate task order award is made to a large business.\nb. Enter into a power purchase agreement, also referred to as a utility service contract, for the purchase of the power output of photovoltaic devices that are installed on DoD land or buildings, or on private land, but are owned, operated, and maintained by the contractor. At the conclusion of the contract, DoD would either require the contractor to dismantle and remove the photovoltaic equipment or abandon the equipment in place. Prime contractors for this type of contract would generally be large businesses, based on the capital costs involved in these projects. However, many developers tend to subcontract out the majority of work to smaller companies.\nThere are approximately 80 manufacturers of photovoltaic devices. We do not currently have data available on whether any of the manufacturers of photovoltaic devices are small entities, because the Federal Procurement Data System does not collect such data on subcontractors.\nThere are no new reporting burdens under this rule. There are some negligible variations to the existing reporting burdens. Furthermore, since the prime contractors subject to this rule are other than small businesses, the reporting requirements will not impact small entities.\nHowever, under section 858, if the aggregate value of the photovoltaic devices to be utilized under a contract is less than $204,000, or unless a waiver is obtained for the utilization of U.S.-made products when the aggregate value of the photovoltaic devices is $204,000 or more, there will be a requirement to track the origin of the components of the domestic photovoltaic devices. However, DoD estimates that most covered contracts will involve utilization of photovoltaic devices with an aggregate value in excess of $204,000 and expects to grant waivers as appropriate.\nDoD did not identify any significant alternatives that meet the requirements of the statute and would have less impact on small entities. The ability for the Government to grant a waiver of section 858 if it is inconsistent with the public interest to preclude utilization of U.S.-made photovoltaic devices when the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement is applicable (i.e., the aggregate value of the photovoltaic devices to be utilized is $204,000 or more) will greatly reduce the burden on manufacturers of photovoltaic devices, regardless of the size of the entity.\nThe rule contains information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C chapter 35); however, these changes to the DFARS do not impose additional information collection requirements to the paperwork burden previously approved under OMB Control Number 0704-0229, entitled \u201cDefense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Part 225, Foreign Acquisition, and related clauses at DFARS 252.225.\u201d\n1.

L. 109-364) requires that DoD provide guidance on the appropriate use of award and incentive fees in DoD acquisition programs, including the requirement to ensure that DoD collects relevant data on award and incentive fees paid to contractors and has mechanisms in place to evaluate such data on a regular basis. DFARS 216.401-70, Data collection, states this latter requirement of section 814. Previously, DoD collected award and incentive fee data semiannually by a manual data call from the DoD components, which was very labor-intensive. On April 6, 2015 (80 FR 18323), DoD removed from DFARS 216.401-70 the requirement to follow the reporting requirements in the associated DFARS Procedures, Guidance, and Information, because DoD can now obtain relevant data through peer reviews and other sources, such as the Contract Business Analysis Repository (CBAR). This final rule removes the remaining statement about the statutory requirements of section 814. Retention of this statement in the DFARS is no longer necessary, because there is no longer a need to collect data directly from the contracting officer or other members of the contracting community in the military departments or defense agencies.\nThe statute that applies to the publication of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) is 41 U.S.C. 1707 entitled \u201cPublication of Proposed Regulations.\u201d Paragraph (a)(1) of the statute requires that a procurement policy, regulation, procedure or form (including an amendment or modification thereof) must be published for public comment if it relates to the expenditure of appropriated funds, and has either a significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of the agency issuing the policy, regulation, procedure or form, or has a significant cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors. This final rule is not required to be published for public comment, because it deletes an unnecessary statement from the DFARS. This revision has no significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of the Government and has no cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors.\nThe Regulatory Flexibility Act does not apply to this rule because this final rule does not constitute a significant DFARS revision within the meaning of FAR 1.501-1, and 41 U.S.C. 1707 does not require publication for public comment.\nPART 216\u2014TYPES OF CONTRACTS 1.

Background\nDOE published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) proposing amended energy conservation standards for commercial prerinse spray valves (CPSVs) on July 9, 2015 (CPSV NOPR). 80 FR 39485. The CPSV NOPR proposed new CPSV product classes based on spray force, and presented results for the engineering analysis, economic analyses, and proposed standard levels. DOE held a public meeting on July 28, 2015 to present the CPSV NOPR. At the public meeting, and during the comment period, DOE received comments on various aspects of the CPSV NOPR.\nIn response to these comments, DOE has revised the analyses presented in the CPSV NOPR. This notice of data availability (NODA) announces the availability of those updated analyses and results and invites interested parties to submit comments on these analyses or additional data. DOE may further revise the analysis presented in this rulemaking based on any new or updated information or data it obtains during the course of the rulemaking. DOE encourages stakeholders to provide any additional data or information that may improve the analysis.\nII. Summary of the Analyses Performed by the Department of Energy\nDOE conducted analyses of commercial prerinse spray valves in the following areas: (1) Engineering, (2) manufacturer impacts, (3) life-cycle cost and payback period, and (4) national impacts. The spreadsheet tools used in preparing these analyses are available at: http://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=EERE-2014-BT-STD-0027. Each individual spreadsheet includes an introduction describing the various inputs and outputs for the analysis, as well as operation instructions. A brief description of each of these analysis tools is provided below. The key aspects of the present analyses and DOE's updates to the CPSV NOPR analyses are described in the following sections.\nA. Engineering Analysis\nThe engineering analysis establishes the relationship between the manufacturer production cost (MPC) and efficiency levels (ELs) for each product class of commercial prerinse spray valves. This relationship serves as the basis for cost-benefit calculations performed in the other three analysis tools for individual consumers, manufacturers, and the nation.\nIn the CPSV NOPR, DOE proposed three product classes that were delineated by spray force. DOE analyzed several ELs associated with specific flow rates for each product class. DOE received feedback from interested parties opposing the three product class structure and recommending a single product class. (Chicago Faucets, No. 26 at pp. 1-2;\u20091 PMI, No. 27 at p. 1; Fisher, No. 30 at p. 1; ASAP, NEEA, NRDC, No. 32 at p. 1; PG&E, SCE, SCGC, SDG&E, No. 34 at p. 1-2; AWE, No. 28 at p. 7; and T&S Brass, No. 33 at p. 2)\n1\u2009A notation in this form provides a reference for information that is in DOE's rulemaking docket to amend energy conservation standards for commercial prerinse spray valves (Docket No. EERE-2014-BT-STD-0027, which is maintained at www.regulations.gov). This particular notation refers to a comment from Chicago Faucets on pp. 1-2 of document number 6 in the docket.\nDOE is required by EPCA to consider performance-related features that justify different standard levels, such as features affecting customer utility, when establishing or amending energy conservation standards. 42 U.S.C. 6295(q)) In response to comments from interested parties, DOE reviewed the market for commercial prerinse spray valves and available data regarding their typical performance and usage characteristics in different applications.\nDOE market research shows that commercial prerinse spray valves have a range of flow rates, spray forces, and spray shapes. For example, manufacturers market commercial prerinse spray valves at lower flow rates with specific terminology such as \u201cultra-low-flow\u201d or \u201clow-flow\u201d spray valves, indicating that there are diverse products available to satisfy different consumer needs when selecting commercial prerinse spray valves. Conversely, for commercial prerinse spray valves at higher flow rates, DOE has predominately observed shower-type units. Shower-type units contain multiple orifices, as opposed to the more traditional, single-orifice CPSV unit. In the CPSV NOPR public meeting, T&S Brass stated that consumer satisfaction is very high at the upper range of the market flow rate distribution, and that the shower-type commercial prerinse spray valves in the upper range of the market flow rate distribution represent the majority of the market and highest level of customer satisfaction because these units prevent splash-back. (T&S, No. 23 at pp. 42-43) T&S Brass also commented that there are several applications of commercial prerinse spray valves, and all may require different spray forces. (T&S Brass, No. 6 at p. 39) Based on the above information, DOE believes that the CPSV market offers a variety of prerinse spray valves that have different design features and different end-user applications.\nAdditionally, DOE found a strong linear relationship between spray force and flow rate, indicating that spray force is an important performance-related feature that affects consumer utility. The relationship between spray force and flow rate is presented in the engineering spreadsheet accompanying this NODA. DOE constructed the flow rate-spray force relationship using data primarily from DOE testing, and supplementary data from DOE's Compliance Certification Management System (CCMS), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) WaterSense\u00ae program, and Food Service Technology Center (FSTC) reports.2 Additionally, DOE's research shows that spray force relates to user satisfaction. A WaterSense field study found that low water pressure, or spray force, is a source of user dissatisfaction. WaterSense evaluated 14 commercial prerinse spray valve models and collected 56 consumer satisfaction reviews, of which 9 indicated unsatisfactory performance. Seven of the nine unsatisfactory reviews were attributed, among other factors, to the water pressure, or the user-perceived force of the spray.3 Therefore, DOE concludes that separating commercial prerinse spray valves into product classes based on spray force is justified, because spray force is a performance-related feature that affects consumer utility, and spray force is strongly correlated with flow rate.\n2\u2009DOE compliance certification data for commercial prerinse spray valves available at www.regulations.doe.gov/certification-data/; EPA WaterSense Specification for Commercial Pre-Rinse Spray Valves Supporting Statement. Version 1.0 available at http://www.epa.gov/watersense/partners/prsv_final.html; Food Service Technology Center test data for prerinse spray valves available at www.fishnick.com/equipment/sprayvalves/.\n3\u2009EPA WaterSense, Prerinse Spray Valves Field Study Report, at 24-25 (Mar. 31, 2011) (Available at: www.epa.gov/watersense/docs/final_epa_prsv_study_report_033111v2_508.pdf).\nTo determine the number of product classes, DOE tested and analyzed a wide range of CPSV units on the market, spanning multiple manufacturers, flow rates, and spray shapes. Based on DOE's test data and additional market research, DOE found that available CPSV units could be differentiated into three distinct spray force ranges. DOE believes that each spray force range represents a specific CPSV application. This conclusion is supported by comments submitted by T&S Brass to the Framework document, suggesting three product classes: (1) An ultra low-flow commercial prerinse spray valve with a maximum flow rate of 0.8 gallons per minute (gpm), (2) a low-flow commercial prerinse spray valve with flow rates of 0.8 to 1.28 gpm, and (3) a standard commercial prerinse spray valve with flow rates of 1.28 to 1.6 gpm. (T&S Brass, No. 12 at p. 3) Therefore, in this NODA, DOE maintains the three product classes presented in the CPSV NOPR. However, based on feedback from interested parties, DOE renames the product classes as product class 1, 2, and 3 instead of using the terminology \u201clight-duty\u201d, \u201cstandard-duty\u201d, and \u201cheavy-duty,\u201d respectively. As defined, product class 1 provides distinct utility for cleaning delicate glassware and removing loose food particles from dishware, product class 2 provides distinct utility for cleaning wet foods, and product class 3 provides distinct utility for cleaning baked-on foods and preserving shower-type units, which prevent splash-back.\nFor each of the product classes, DOE determined the spray force ranges based on the CPSV flow rate-spray force linear relationship. Product class 1 includes units with spray force less than or equal to 5 ounce-force (ozf), product class 2 includes units with spray force greater than 5 ozf but less than or equal to 8 ozf, and product class 3 includes units with spray force greater than 8 ozf. DOE selected 8.0 ozf as the spray force cut-off between product class 2 and product class 3 based on test results of commercial prerinse spray valves with shower-type spray shapes. DOE testing showed that the upper range of the market, in terms of flow rate, predominantly includes shower-type units. DOE found that the lowest tested spray force of any shower-type unit was 8.1 ozf. Therefore, to maintain the consumer utility provided by shower-type units, DOE selected 8.0 ozf to differentiate product class 3 units from other commercial prerinse spray valves available on the market. Additionally, this spray force threshold is corroborated by T&S Brass's comments to the Framework document suggesting three product classes. T&S Brass suggested a flow rate cut-off of 1.28 gpm between the \u201clow-flow\u201d and \u201cstandard\u201d commercial prerinse spray valves. (T&S Brass, No. 12 at p. 3) The flow rate-spray force linear relationship equates 1.28 gpm to 8.5 ozf. This spray force can be conservatively rounded to 8.0 ozf.\nDOE selected 5.0 ozf as the spray force cut-off between product class 1 and product class 2 based on DOE's test data and market research, which clearly showed a cluster of CPSV units above and below that threshold. One cluster of CPSV units had spray force ranges between 4.1 and 4.8 ozf, and the other cluster was between 5.5 and 7.7 ozf. Therefore, DOE established the threshold between the two classes at 5.0 ozf. This spray force threshold is corroborated by T&S Brass's comment to the Framework document suggesting a flow rate cut-off of 0.80 gpm between the \u201cultra-low-flow\u201d and \u201clow-flow\u201d commercial prerinse spray valves, which equates to 5.3 ozf using the flow rate-spray force linear relationship. This spray force can be conservatively rounded to 5.0 ozf.\nWhile DOE acknowledges the comments from interested parties regarding DOE's CPSV product class structure, DOE maintains that all available data and information from manufacturers suggests that: (1) Flow rate and spray force are strongly correlated, and (2) CPSV units with different flow rates or spray forces are available in the market and provide distinct consumer utility in the different applications those units are designed to serve. Therefore, in this NODA, DOE has maintained the product class structure presented in the NOPR, with three product classes differentiated by spray force.\n1. Summary of Engineering Updates for the NODA\nIn addition to the product class structure, DOE received comments on a number of assumptions in the engineering analysis presented in the NOPR. In response, DOE conducted additional testing of CPSV units to gather more data on the range of CPSV products available in the market and updated a number of the assumptions in the NOPR engineering analysis. Specifically, DOE's revised updates include the following:\n\u2022 Based on new test data, DOE updated the flow rate-spray force relationship, which is presented in the accompanying engineering spreadsheet.\n\u2022 Although DOE has observed that for product classes 1 and 2 there are currently no CPSV units at the current federal standard flow rate of 1.6 gpm, DOE acknowledges that such units may exist in the market. Therefore, DOE updated the baseline flow rates for product class 1 and 2 to be the current federal standard flow rate of 1.6 gpm, consistent with the baseline for product class 3.\n\u2022 Because the baseline levels for product class 1 and 2 were updated, DOE redefined EL 1 to represent the least efficient CPSV unit within each product class (i.e., the market minimum). DOE defined the market minimum levels to be the higher flow rate of either (1) the tested least-efficient unit or (2) the theoretical least-efficient unit at the intersection of the flow rate-spray force linear relationship and the spray force bounds. In product class 1, DOE identified the market minimum to be 1.00 gpm, which is a tested unit with a flow rate of 0.97 gpm, rounded-up to a whole number. This is greater than the theoretical flow rate at the intersection of the flow rate-spray force linear relationship and the spray force bound of 5.0 ozf, which is 0.75 gpm. In product class 2, DOE identified the market minimum level to be 1.20 gpm, which is the intersection of the flow rate-spray force linear relationship and the 8.0 ozf spray force bound.\n\u2022 Based on new test data, DOE revised the maximum technologically-feasible levels (i.e., max-tech) from 0.65, 0.97, and 1.24 gpm to 0.62, 0.73, and 1.13 gpm for product class 1, product class 2 and product class 3, respectively.\n\u2022 Based on the updates to the baseline and max-tech levels, DOE updated the intermediate flow rates for product classes 1 and 2 to reflect a 15 percent and 25 percent improvement, respectively, over the market minimum efficiency. Table II.1 through Table II.3 provide the updated ELs for all product classes.\nTable II.1\u2014Efficiency Levels for CPSV Product Class 1 [Spray force \u2264 5 ozf] Efficiency level Description Flow rate\nBaseline Current Federal standard 1.60 Level 1 Market minimum 1.00 Level 2 15% improvement over market minimum 0.85 Level 3 25% improvement over market minimum 0.75 Level 4 Maximum technologically-feasible (max-tech) 0.62 Table II.2\u2014Efficiency Levels for CPSV Product Class 2 [5 ozf < Spray force \u2264 8 ozf] Efficiency level Description Flow rate\nBaseline Current Federal standard 1.60 Level 1 Market minimum 1.20 Level 2 15% improvement over market minimum 1.02 Level 3 25% improvement over market minimum 0.90 Level 4 Maximum technologically-feasible (max-tech) 0.73 Table II.3\u2014Efficiency Levels for CPSV Product Class 3 [Spray force > 8 ozf] Efficiency level Description Flow rate\nBaseline Current Federal standard 1.60 Level 1 10% improvement over baseline 1.44 Level 2 WaterSense level; 20% improvement over baseline 1.28 Level 3 Maximum technologically-feasible (max-tech) 1.13 B. Life-Cycle Cost and Payback Period Analysis\nThe life-cycle cost (LCC) and payback period (PBP) analysis determines the economic impact of potential standards on individual consumers. The LCC is the total cost of purchasing, installing and operating a commercial prerinse spray valve over the course of its lifetime. The LCC analysis compares the LCC of a commercial prerinse spray valve designed to meet possible energy conservation standards with the LCC of a commercial prerinse spray valve likely to be installed in the absence of amended standards. DOE determines LCCs by considering (1) total installed cost to the consumer (which consists of manufacturer selling price, distribution chain markups, and sales taxes), (2) the range of annual energy consumption of commercial prerinse spray valves that meet each of the ELs considered as they are used in the field, (3) the operating cost of commercial prerinse spray valves (e.g., energy and water costs), (4) CPSV lifetime, and (5) a discount rate that reflects the real consumer cost of capital and puts the LCC in present-value terms.\nThe PBP represents the number of years needed to recover the typically increased purchase price of higher-efficiency commercial prerinse spray valves through savings in operating costs. PBP is calculated by dividing the incremental increase in installed cost of the higher efficiency product, compared to the baseline product, by the annual savings in operating costs. In this analysis, because more efficient products do not cost more than baseline efficiency products, the PBP is zero, meaning that consumers do not have any incremental product costs to recover via lower operating costs.\nFor commercial prerinse spray valves, DOE performed an energy and water use analysis that calculated energy and water use of commercial prerinse spray valves at each EL within each product class identified in the engineering analysis. DOE determined the range of annual energy consumption and annual water consumption using the flow rate of each EL within each product class from the engineering analysis, the average annual operating time, and the energy required to heat a gallon of water used at the commercial prerinse spray valve. Recognizing that several inputs to the determination of consumer LCC and PBP are either variable or uncertain (e.g., annual energy consumption, product lifetime, electricity price, discount rate), DOE conducts the LCC and PBP analysis by modeling both the uncertainty and variability in the inputs using a Monte Carlo simulation and probability distributions. The primary outputs of the LCC and PBP analysis are (1) average LCCs, (2) median PBPs, and (3) the percentage of consumers that experience a net cost for each product class and EL. The average annual energy consumption derived in the LCC analysis is used as an input to the National Impact Analysis (NIA).\nC. National Impact Analysis\nThe NIA estimates the national energy savings (NES), national water savings (NWS), and the net present value (NPV) of total consumer costs and savings expected to result from potential new standards at each trial standard level (TSL). In this NODA, DOE provides results for a total of five TSLs, one of which uses an alternative shipments scenario. TSLs 1 through 4 utilize a default shipments scenario similar to the shipments scenario presented in the NOPR, while TSL 4a utilizes the alternative shipments scenario. The default and alternative shipments scenarios are discussed later in this section.\nThe TSLs analyzed in this NODA are shown in Table II.4. These TSLs were chosen based on the following criteria:\n\u2022 TSL 1 represents the first EL above the market minimum for each product class. That is, for product classes 1 and 2, TSL 1 represents EL 2 which is a 15 percent savings above the market minimum. For product class 3, TSL 1 represents EL 1 which is a 10 percent savings above the market minimum (which is also the Federal standard level).\n\u2022 TSL 2 represents the second EL above market minimum for each product class. That is, for product classes 1 and 2, TSL 2 represents EL 3 which is a 25 percent savings above the market minimum. For product class 3, TSL 3 represents the WaterSense level, or 20 percent savings above the market minimum (i.e., the Federal standard).\n\u2022 TSL 3 represents the minimum flow rates for each product class that would not induce consumers to switch product classes as a result of a standard at those flow rates (as discussed in the CPSV NOPR), and retains shower-type designs. That is, DOE selected the lowest flow rates that would allow consumers to maintain provided utility without purchasing units from a different product class. As discussed in section II.A, DOE believes that spray force and flow rate are strongly correlated and that specific flow rate-spray force combinations represent distinct utility in the market. Therefore, DOE analyzed TSL 3, which exhibits no product class switching, as the TSL that maintains customer utility and availability of products in the marketplace.\n\u2022 TSL 4 represents max-tech for all product classes under the default shipments scenario, which assumes the total volume of shipments does not change as a function of the standard level selected. Consumers in product classes 1 and 2 would purchase a compliant CPSV model with flow rates most similar to the flow rate they would purchase in the absence of a standard. This TSL assumes that purchasers of shower-type commercial prerinse spray valves would transition to single orifice CPSV models but recognizes that the utility or usability of compliant CPSV models in those applications may be impacted.\n\u2022 TSL 4a represents max-tech for all product classes under an alternative shipments scenario. Since the utility of single-orifice CPSV models may not be equivalent in some applications that previously used shower-type CPSV, this alternative shipments scenario analyzes the case where, rather than accepting the decreased usability of a compliant CPSV model, consumers of shower-type units instead exit the CPSV market and purchase faucets, which have a maximum flow rate of 2.2 gpm under the current federal standard. Thus, shipments of compliant CPSV models are much lower under this TSL and water consumption higher due to increased faucet shipments.\nTable II.4\u2014Efficiency Levels by Product Class and TSL TSL Product class 1 Product class 2 Product class 3 Shipments\n1 2 2 1 Default. 2 3 3 2 Default. 3 1 1 2 Default. 4 4 4 3 Default. 4a 4 4 3 Alternate.\nThe reported NIA results, in section III.B, reflect the additional testing of units DOE conducted after the NOPR (as discussed in section II.A), and include updated product allocations by product class and EL, as well as updated data sources.\nDOE calculated NES, NWS, and NPV for each TSL as the difference between a no-new-standards case scenario (without amended standards) and the standards case scenario (with amended standards). Cumulative energy savings are the sum of the annual NES determined over the lifetime of commercial prerinse spray valves shipped during the analysis period. Energy savings reported include the full-fuel cycle energy savings (i.e., includes the energy needed to extract, process, and deliver primary fuel sources such as coal and natural gas, and the conversion and distribution losses of generating electricity from those fuel sources). Similarly, cumulative water savings are the sum of the annual NWS determined over the lifetime of commercial prerinse spray valves shipped during the analysis period. The NPV is the sum over time of the discounted net savings each year, which consists of the difference between total operating cost savings and any changes in total installed costs. NPV results are reported for discount rates of 3 percent and 7 percent. Under the alternative shipments scenario, DOE accounts for the energy and water use of CPSV models that remain within the scope of this rule and also accounts for the change in energy or water use for consumers that chose to exit the CPSV market, and instead purchase faucets, as a result of the standard. As a result, realized savings resulting from TSL 4a are reduced compared to savings for TSL 4 under the default shipments scenario.\nTo calculate the NES, NWS, and NPV, DOE projected future shipments and efficiency distributions (for each TSL) for each CPSV product class. After further research and consideration of public comments regarding product shipments (T&S, No. 23 at pp. 81), DOE updated its shipments projections from the NOPR to more accurately characterize the CPSV market. The most significant update was allocating more of the overall market share to product class 3 relative to product classes 1 and 2 in the default shipments scenario, and the modeling of an alternative shipments scenario where consumers of shower-type CPSV models do not purchase compliant CPSV models in the standards case and, instead, leave the CPSV market altogether and purchase faucets. Other inputs to the NIA include the estimated CPSV lifetime, final installed costs, and average annual energy and water consumption per unit from the LCC. For detailed NIA results, see Table III.4 and Table III.5.\nD. Manufacturer Impact Analysis\nFor the manufacturer impact analysis (MIA), DOE used the Government Regulatory Impact Model (GRIM) to assess the economic impact of potential standards on CPSV manufacturers. DOE developed key industry average financial parameters for the GRIM using publicly available data from corporate annual reports. Additionally, DOE used this and other publicly available information to estimate and account for the aggregate industry investment in capital expenditures and research and development required to produce compliant products at each EL.\nThe GRIM uses this information in conjunction with inputs from other analyses including MPCs from the engineering analysis, shipments from the shipments analysis, and price trends from the NIA to model industry annual cash flows from the base year through the end of the analysis period. The primary quantitative output of this model is the industry net present value (INPV), which DOE calculates as the sum of industry cash flows discounted to the present day using industry specific weighted average costs of capital.\nStandards affect INPV by requiring manufacturers to make investments in manufacturing capital and product development, and by a change in the number of shipments. Under potential standards, DOE expects that manufacturers may lose a portion of their INPV, which is calculated as the difference between INPV in the no-new-standards case and in the standards case. DOE examines a range of possible impacts on industry by modeling scenarios with various levels of investment.\nIII. Results of the Economic Analyses A.

The petition asks the Commission to amend its regulation on candidate debates to revise the criteria governing the inclusion of candidates in presidential and vice presidential candidate debates. The Commission is not initiating a rulemaking at this time.\nThe petition and other documents relating to this matter are available on the Commission's Web site, www.fec.gov/fosers (reference REG 2014-06), and in the Commission's Public Records Office, 999 E Street NW., Washington, DC 20463.\nMr. Robert M. Knop, Assistant General Counsel, or Ms. Jessica Selinkoff, Attorney, 999 E Street NW., Washington, DC 20463, (202) 694-1650 or (800) 424-9530.\nOn September 11, 2014, the Commission received a Petition for Rulemaking from Level the Playing Field regarding the Commission's regulation at 11 CFR 110.13(c). That regulation governs the criteria that debate staging organizations (which the petitioner refers to as \u201csponsors\u201d) use for inclusion in candidate debates. The regulation requires staging organizations to \u201cuse pre-established objective criteria to determine which candidates may participate in a debate\u201d and further specifies that, for general election debates, staging organizations \u201cshall not use nomination by a particular political party as the sole objective criterion to determine whether to include a candidate in a debate.\u201d 11 CFR 110.13(c). The petition asks the Commission to amend 11 CFR 110.13(c) in two respects: (1) To preclude sponsors of general election presidential and vice presidential debates from requiring that a candidate meet a polling threshold in order to be included in the debate; and (2) to require sponsors of general election presidential and vice presidential debates to have a set of objective, unbiased criteria for debate participation that do not require candidates to satisfy a polling threshold.\nThe Commission published a Notice of Availability seeking comment on the petition on November 14, 2014. Candidate Debates, 79 FR 68137. The Commission received 1264 comments in response to that notice. One comment, that of an organization that stages presidential and vice presidential debates, opposed the petition; the remaining comments either supported the petition or took no position thereon.\nThe petition and many of the comments supporting it argue that a staging organization's requirement that a candidate meet a polling threshold for inclusion in a debate unfairly benefits major party candidates at the expense of independent and third party candidates. As an alternative, the petition and some of the comments proposed requiring staging organizations to include each candidate who has qualified for the general election ballot in states that collectively have enough Electoral College votes for the candidate to attain the presidency.1 The petition states that this would provide an objective, and more inclusive, criterion preferable to polling thresholds. Other commenters did not necessarily support or oppose the petitioner's proposed alternative but supported a rulemaking to determine if changes are warranted. Still other commenters proposed alternative and additional rule modifications for the Commission's consideration, such as a requirement that debate staging organizations provide the public with information about candidates not included in a debate.\n1\u2009Specifically, the petitioner proposes that a presidential candidate who, at a given date during the election year, has secured ballot access in states that collectively have at least 270 Electoral College votes (of a total possible 538 votes), could potentially qualify to participate in the general election debate.\nThe commenter that opposed the petition urged the Commission to continue allowing a debate staging organization substantial discretion in formulating the nonpartisan objective candidate selection criteria of its choice. This commenter further argued that its particular polling thresholds are reasonable and objective selection criteria adopted for nonpartisan reasons and designed to advance voter education. This commenter also asserted that the petitioner's proposed alternative would favor early ballot qualification by candidates with the most resources over more meaningful measures of candidate support and viability.\nThe Commission has evaluated the petition and comments and decided not to initiate a rulemaking to amend 11 CFR 110.13(c) at this time.\nAs the Commission stated in adopting the current candidate debate rule in 1995, \u201cthe purpose of section 110.13 . . . is to provide a specific exception so that certain nonprofit organizations . . . and the news media may stage debates, without being deemed to have made prohibited corporate contributions to the candidates taking part in debates.\u201d Corporate and Labor Organization Activity; Express Advocacy and Coordination with Candidates, 60 FR 64260, 64261 (Dec. 14, 1995).2 Accordingly, the Commission has required that debate \u201cstaging organizations use pre-established objective criteria to avoid the real or apparent potential for a quid pro quo, and to ensure the integrity and fairness of the process.\u201d Id. at 64262. In discussing objective selection criteria, the Commission has noted that debate staging organizations may use them to \u201ccontrol the number of candidates participating in . . . a meaningful debate\u201d but must not use criteria \u201cdesigned to result in the selection of certain pre-chosen participants.\u201d Id. The Commission has further explained that while \u201c[t]he choice of which objective criteria to use is largely left to the discretion of the staging organization,\u201d the rule contains an implied reasonableness requirement. Id. Within the realm of reasonable criteria, the Commission has stated that it \u201cgives great latitude in establishing the criteria for participant selection\u201d to debate staging organizations under 11 CFR 110.13.3 First General Counsel's Report at n.5, MUR 5530 (Commission on Presidential Debates) (May 4, 2005), http://eqs.fec.gov/eqsdocsMUR/000043F0.pdf.\n2\u2009See also Funding and Sponsorship of Federal Candidate Debates, 44 FR 76734 (Dec. 27, 1979) (explaining that, through candidate debate rule, costs of staging multi-candidate nonpartisan debates are not contributions or expenditures); 11 CFR 100.92 (excluding funds provided for costs of candidate debates staged under 11 CFR 110.13 from definition of \u201ccontribution\u201d); 11 CFR 100.154 (excluding funds used for costs of candidate debates staged under 11 CFR 110.13 from definition of \u201cexpenditure\u201d).\n3\u2009See Candidate Debates and News Stories, 61 FR 18049 (Apr. 24, 1996) (quoting H.R. Rep. No. 93-1239 at 4 (1974)).\nThe Commission has a well-established history of ensuring that corporate contributions are not made to candidates taking part in debates, including by evaluating the objectivity and neutrality of a debate staging organization's selection criteria in the Commission's enforcement process. Enforcement matters regarding that issue have involved a wide range of candidate selection criteria, including polling thresholds (from 5% to 15%), campaign finance activity levels (such as a minimum number of contributors as shown in reports filed with the Commission), campaign engagement levels (such as numbers of yard signs or participation in neighborhood association meetings), ballot access, and office eligibility. See, e.g., First General Counsel's Report at 5 n.5, MUR 5530 (Commission on Presidential Debates) (May 4, 2005), http://eqs.fec.gov/eqsdocsMUR/000043F0.pdf (including 15% polling threshold and ballot access criteria). In each of these matters, the Commission evaluated whether the criteria were objective, pre-established, and not arranged in a manner to promote or advance one candidate over another so as to constitute corporate contributions to the participating candidates.\nIn these enforcement matters, the Commission has carefully examined the use of polling thresholds and found that they can be objective and otherwise lawful selection criteria for candidate debates. Indeed, almost two decades ago, the Commission found that a staging organization's use of polling data (among other criteria) did not result in an unlawful corporate contribution, with five Commissioners observing that it would make \u201clittle sense\u201d if \u201ca debate sponsor could not look at the latest poll results even though the rest of the nation could look at this as an indicator of a candidate's popularity.\u201d MUR 4451/4473 Commission Statement of Reasons at 8 n.7 (Commission on Presidential Debates) (Apr. 6, 1998), http://www.fec.gov/disclosure_data/mur/4451.pdf#page=459. Citing this statement, one court noted with respect to the use of polling thresholds as debate selection criteria that \u201c[i]t is difficult to understand why it would be unreasonable or subjective to consider the extent of a candidate's electoral support prior to the debate to determine whether the candidate is viable enough to be included.\u201d Buchanan v. FEC, 112 F. Supp. 2d 58, 75 (D.D.C. 2000).\nBecause the regulation at issue is designed to provide debate sponsors with discretion within a framework of objective and neutral debate criteria, and because the Commission can evaluate the objectivity and neutrality of a debate sponsor's selection criteria through the enforcement process, the Commission finds that the rulemaking proposed by the petition is not necessary at this time. The Commission concludes that section 110.13(c) in its current form provides adequate regulatory implementation of the corporate contribution ban and is preferable to a rigid rule that would prohibit or mandate use of particular debate selection criteria in all debates. See 11 CFR 200.5(c) (listing desirability of proceeding on case-by-case basis as consideration in declining to initiate rulemaking); see also MUR 4451/4473 Commission Statement of Reasons at 8-9 (Commission on Presidential Debates) (noting that Commission cannot reasonably \u201cquestion[ ] each and every . . . candidate assessment criterion\u201d but can evaluate \u201cevidence that [such a] criterion was `fixed' or arranged in some manner so as to guarantee a preordained result\u201d).\nThe petition and the commenters who support it rely primarily on policy arguments in favor of debate selection criteria that would include more candidates in general election presidential and vice presidential debates. The rule at section 110.13(c), however, is not intended to maximize the number of debate participants; it is intended to ensure that staging organizations do not select participants in such a way that the costs of a debate constitute corporate contributions to the candidates taking part. Corporate and Labor Organization Activity; Express Advocacy and Coordination with Candidates, 60 FR at 64261-62. Staging organizations' use of polling criteria is a reasonable way for a debate staging organization to select and \u201ccontrol the number of candidates participating in . . . a meaningful debate,\u201d id., and to do so in a way that is objective and does not constitute a corporate contribution. A per se rule prohibiting the use of polling criteria is therefore not necessary to prevent debates from constituting unlawful contributions.\nFurthermore, the rule at 11 CFR 110.13(c) already permits the use of criteria by staging organizations that could result in larger numbers of candidates participating in debates. Indeed, the specific criterion that the petition asks the Commission to include in a revised section 110.13(c) is already lawful: A debate staging organization has the discretion to stage a general election presidential or vice presidential debate using selection criteria similar to the Electoral College approach preferred by the petitioner (so long as the organization's reasonable selection criteria are pre-established, objective, and not designed to result in the selection of certain pre-chosen participants). No rule change is necessary to enable that approach, and the petitioner may sponsor a debate using such criteria or persuade a debate sponsor to do so.4\n4\u2009If the petitioner (or another entity) is unsure whether it is a debate \u201cstaging organization\u201d as defined in 11 CFR 110.13(a), it may ask the Commission for an advisory opinion on the matter. See, e.g., Advisory Opinion 1988-22 (San Joaquin Republicans) (concluding that advisory opinion requestor, which did not yet have relevant tax status, was not within candidate debate exemption). Similarly, if a debate staging organization wishes to ask the Commission to conclude that its proposed candidate selection criteria are objective and not designed to result in the selection of certain pre-chosen participants (and thus protect itself from a later enforcement action), it may seek an advisory opinion on that question. See 52 U.S.C. 30108(c) (establishing scope of protection of advisory opinions).\nThe petition sets forth certain data in support of its argument that the use of polling thresholds as a debate selection criterion by one staging organization \u201ccreates a hurdle that third-party and independent candidates cannot reasonably expect to clear,\u201d and therefore is designed to result in the selection of certain pre-chosen participants. Petition at 15. The use of polling data by a single debate staging organization for candidate debates for a single office, however, does not suggest the need for a rule change. The Commission acknowledges that lower (or no) polling threshold selection criteria may open debates to more candidates and that polling thresholds could be used to promote or advance one candidate (or group of candidates) over another. But to the extent that a debate staging organization uses non-objective selection criteria \u201cdesigned to result in the selection of certain pre-chosen participants,\u201d this would already be unlawful under the Commission's existing regulation. Corporate and Labor Organization Activity; Express Advocacy and Coordination with Candidates, 60 FR at 64262.\nFinally, the Commission notes that the petition focuses on and seeks to amend the rule only with respect to polling threshold criteria in the selection of participants for presidential general election debates. However, the candidate debate rule applies to all debates (primary and general election) \u201cat the presidential, House, and Senate levels.\u201d Funding and Sponsorship of Candidate Debates, 44 FR 39348 (July 5, 1979).5 In the absence of any indication that polling thresholds are inherently unobjective or otherwise unlawful as applied to all federal elections (and the Commission is aware of no such indication),6 the Commission declines to initiate a rulemaking that would impose a nationwide prohibition on the use of such thresholds, or that could result in giving different legal effect to the use of polling criterion in different elections.\n5\u2009Indeed, the Commission has analyzed, in the enforcement context, debate staging organizations' criteria under 11 CFR 110.13(c) at all levels of federal elections. See, e.g., MUR 5650 (Associated Students of the Univ. of Arizona) (Senate debate); MUR 5530 (Commission on Presidential Debates) (presidential general election debates).\n6\u2009The petitioner provided data intended to demonstrate that polling figures are sometimes inaccurate, but the fact that polls can be inaccurate does not mean that a staging organization acts unobjectively by using them.\nFor all of the above reasons, the Commission therefore declines to commence a rulemaking to amend the criteria for staging candidate debates in 11 CFR 110.13(c).\nDated: November 9, 2015. Ann M. Ravel, Chair, Federal Election Commission. [FR Doc. 2015-29494 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6715-01-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 25 [Docket No. FAA-2015-4279; Notice No. 25-15-09-SC] Special Conditions: Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, Gulfstream GVI Airplane; Non-Rechargeable Lithium Battery Installations AGENCY:\nThis action proposes special conditions for the Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation GVI airplane. This airplane will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport-category airplanes. This design feature is non-rechargeable lithium battery systems. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These proposed special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.\nSend your comments on or before January 4, 2016.\nGulfstream Aerospace Corporation applied for several changes to Type Certificate No. T00015AT to install non-rechargeable lithium batteries in the Model GVI airplane. The Gulfstream Model GVI airplane is a twin-engine, transport-category airplane with a maximum passenger capacity of 19 and maximum takeoff weight of 99,600 pounds.\nUnder the provisions of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations, (14 CFR) 21.101, Gulfstream must show that the design change and areas affected by the change continue to meet the applicable provisions of the regulations listed in Type Certificate No. T00015AT, or the applicable regulations in effect on the date of application for the change, except for earlier amendments as agreed upon by the FAA. The regulations listed in the type certificate are commonly referred to as the \u201coriginal type certification basis.\u201d The regulations listed in Type Certificate No. T00015AT are 14 CFR part 25 effective February 1, 1965 including Amendments 25-1 through 25-120, 25-122, 25-124, and 25-132. The certification basis also includes certain special conditions, exemptions, and equivalent safety findings that are not relevant to these proposed special conditions.\nIn addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special conditions, the Gulfstream Model GVI airplane must comply with the fuel-vent and exhaust-emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34, and the noise-certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36.\nIf the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness regulations (i.e., 14 CFR part 25) do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for the Gulfstream Model GIV airplane because of a novel or unusual design feature, special conditions are prescribed under the provisions of \u00a7\u200921.16.\nSpecial conditions are initially applicable to the Gulfstream Model GVI airplane model for which they are issued. Should the type certificate for that model be amended later to include any other model that incorporates the same or similar novel or unusual design feature, or should any other model already included on the same type certificate be modified to incorporate the same novel or unusual design feature, these special conditions would also apply to the other model under \u00a7\u200921.101.\nA battery system consists of the battery and any protective, monitoring and alerting circuitry or hardware inside or outside of the battery and venting capability where necessary. For the purpose of these special conditions, we refer to a battery and battery system as a battery. The Gulfstream GVI will incorporate non-rechargeable lithium batteries, which are novel or unusual design features.\nWe derived the current regulations governing installation of batteries in transport-category airplanes from Civil Air Regulations (CAR) 4b.625(d) as part of the re-codification of CAR 4b that established 14 CFR part 25 in February 1965. We basically reworded the battery requirements, which are currently in \u00a7\u200925.1353(b)(1) through (b)(4), from the CAR requirements. Non-rechargeable lithium batteries are novel and unusual with respect to the state of technology considered when these requirements were codified. These batteries introduce higher energy levels into airplane systems through new chemical compositions in various battery-cell sizes and construction. Interconnection of these cells in battery packs introduces failure modes that require unique design considerations, such as provisions for thermal management.\nOn July 12, 2013, an event involving a non-rechargeable lithium battery, in an emergency locator transmitter installation, demonstrated unanticipated failure modes. Air Accident Investigations Branch Bulletin S5/2013 describes this event.\nSome other known uses of rechargeable and non-rechargeable lithium batteries on airplanes include:\n\u2022 Flight deck and avionics systems such as displays, global positioning systems, cockpit voice recorders, flight data recorders, underwater locator beacons, navigation computers, integrated avionics computers, satellite network and communication systems, communication-management units, and remote-monitor electronic line-replaceable units (LRU);\n\u2022 Cabin safety, entertainment, and communications equipment, including life rafts, escape slides, seatbelt air bags, cabin management systems, Ethernet switches, routers and media servers, wireless systems, internet and in-flight entertainment systems, satellite televisions, remotes, and handsets;\n\u2022 Internal failures\nIn general, these batteries are significantly more susceptible to internal failures that can result in self-sustaining increases in temperature and pressure (i.e., thermal runaway) than their nickel-cadmium or lead-acid counterparts. The metallic lithium can ignite, resulting in a self-sustaining fire or explosion.\n\u2022 Fast or imbalanced discharging\nFast discharging or an imbalanced discharge of one cell of a multi-cell battery may create an overheating condition that results in an uncontrollable venting condition, which in turn leads to a thermal event or an explosion.\n\u2022 Flammability\nUnlike nickel-cadmium and lead-acid batteries, these batteries use higher energy and current in an electrochemical system that can be configured to maximize energy storage of lithium. They also use liquid electrolytes that can be extremely flammable. The electrolyte, as well as the electrodes, can serve as a source of fuel for an external fire if the battery casing is breached.\nProposed Special Condition 1 requires that each individual cell within a battery be designed to maintain safe temperatures and pressures. Proposed Special Condition 2 addresses these same issues but for the entire battery. Proposed Special Condition 2 requires the battery be designed to prevent propagation of a thermal event, such as self-sustained, uncontrolled increases in temperature or pressure from one cell to adjacent cells.\nProposed Special Conditions 1 and 2 are intended to ensure that the battery and its cells are designed to eliminate the potential for uncontrolled failures. However, a certain number of failures will occur due to various factors beyond the control of the designer. Therefore, other special conditions are intended to protect the airplane and its occupants if failure occurs.\nProposed Special Conditions 3, 9, and 10 are self-explanatory, and the FAA does not provide further explanation for them at this time.\nThe FAA proposes Special Condition 4 to make it clear that the flammable-fluid fire-protection requirements of \u00a7\u200925.863 apply to non-rechargeable lithium battery installations. Section 25.863 is applicable to areas of the airplane that could be exposed to flammable fluid leakage from airplane systems. Non-rechargeable lithium batteries contain electrolyte that is a flammable fluid.\nProposed Special Condition 5 requires each non-rechargeable lithium battery installation to not damage surrounding structure or adjacent systems, equipment, or electrical wiring from corrosive fluids or gases that may escape. Proposed Special Condition 6 requires each non-rechargeable lithium battery installation to have provisions to prevent any hazardous effect on airplane structure or systems caused by the maximum amount of heat the battery installation can generate due to any failure of it or its individual cells. The means of meeting these proposed special conditions may be the same, but they are independent requirements addressing different hazards. Proposed Special Condition 5 addresses corrosive fluids and gases, whereas Proposed Special Condition 6 addresses heat.\nProposed Special Conditions 7 and 8 require non-rechargeable lithium batteries to have automatic means for battery disconnection and control of battery discharge rate due to the fast-acting nature of lithium-battery chemical reactions. Manual intervention would not be timely or effective in mitigating the hazards associated with these batteries.\nThese special conditions will apply to all non-rechargeable lithium battery installations in lieu of \u00a7\u200925.1353(b)(1) through (b)(4) at Amendment 25-113. Sections 25.1353(b)(1) through (b)(4) at Amendment 25-113 will remain in effect for other battery installations.\nAs discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the Gulfstream Model GVI airplane. Should Gulfstream apply at a later date for a change to the type certificate to include another model incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, these special conditions would apply to that model as well.\nAccordingly, the FAA proposes the following special conditions as part of the type certification basis for Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Model GVI airplanes.\n2. Prevent the occurrence of self-sustaining, uncontrolled increases in temperature or pressure.\n5. Not damage surrounding structure or adjacent systems, equipment, or electrical wiring from corrosive fluids or gases that may escape.\n7. Be capable of automatically controlling the discharge rate of each cell to prevent cell imbalance, back-charging, overheating, and uncontrollable temperature and pressure.\n8. Have a means to automatically disconnect from its discharging circuit in the event of an over-temperature condition, cell failure or battery failure.\n10. Have a means for the flightcrew or maintenance personnel to determine the battery charge state if the battery's function is required for safe operation of the airplane.\nA battery system consists of the battery and any protective, monitoring and alerting circuitry or hardware inside or outside of the battery. It also includes vents (where necessary) and packaging. For the purpose of these special conditions, a battery and battery system are referred to as a battery.\nIssued in Renton, Washington, on November 11, 2015.

[FR Doc. 2015-29626 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2015-5809; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-055-AD] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes AGENCY:\nWe propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2006-19-12, which applies to certain The Boeing Model 777-200 and -300 series airplanes. AD 2006-19-12 currently requires inspecting the lower web of the aft fairing of the engine struts for any discoloration and doing any related investigative and corrective action if necessary; inspecting the heat shield castings for any damage and doing any corrective action if necessary; installing gap cover strips; and replacing insulation blankets with new insulation blankets. Since we issued AD 2006-19-12, we have received a report that an aft fairing lower spar web exceeded the allowable conductivity limits. This proposed AD would also require, depending on airplane configuration, one-time or repetitive detailed inspections for cracking and deformation, as applicable, of the aft fairing lower structure, and one-time or repetitive conductivity inspections of the aft fairing lower structure and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This proposed AD also adds airplanes to the applicability. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct degradation of the aft fairing lower web, which could lead to cracking of the web and could allow flammable fluids to leak into the heat shield pan castings, and consequent increased risk of an uncontained fire and subsequent structural damage.\nFor service information identified in this proposed AD, contact Boeing Commercial Airplanes, Attention: Data & Services Management, P. O. Box 3707, MC 2H-65, Seattle, WA 98124-2207; telephone 206-544-5000, extension 1; fax 206-766-5680; Internet https://www.myboeingfleet.com. You may view this referenced service information at the FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton, WA. For information on the availability of this material at the FAA, call 425-227-1221. It is also available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-5809.\nOn September 13, 2006, we issued AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), for certain Boeing Model 777-200 and -300 series airplanes. AD 2006-19-12 requires inspecting the lower web of the aft fairing of engine struts for any discoloration and doing any related investigative and corrective action if necessary; inspecting the heat shield castings for any damage and doing any corrective action if necessary; installing gap cover strips; and replacing insulation blankets with new insulation blankets. AD 2006-19-12 resulted from a report that several discolored fairing lower webs and some damaged/deteriorated insulation blankets were found in the aft fairings of engine struts. We issued AD 2006-19-12 to prevent cracking of lower webs of the aft fairings, which could result in flammable hydraulic fluid leaking onto or near an ignition source, and possibly result in an uncontrollable fire in the engine strut area.\nActions Since AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006) Was Issued\nSince we issued AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), we have received a report that an aft fairing lower spar web exceeded the allowable conductivity limits. An investigation concluded that wear to the pan casting and gap cover strips allowed increased heat into the aft fairing heat shield cavity, which exceeded the thermal capability of the insulation blankets.\nWe have reviewed Boeing Service Bulletin 777-54-0026, Revision 2, dated January 5, 2012. The service information describes procedures for a detailed inspection of the gap cover strips and heat shield pan castings for damage, corrective actions, and installation of new gap cover strip fillers, new velcro strips, and new aft fairing insulation blankets.\nWe reviewed Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0038, dated March 6, 2015. The service information describes procedures for one-time and repetitive detailed inspections for any cracking and deformation, as applicable, of the aft fairing lower structure; conductivity inspections of the aft fairing lower structure; and related investigative and corrective actions.\nThis proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006). In addition, this proposed AD would add airplanes to the applicability of this AD. This proposed AD would also require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information described previously.\nChange to AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006)\nSince AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006) was issued, the AD format has been revised, and certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding paragraph identifiers have been redesignated in this proposed AD, as listed in the following table:\nRevised Paragraph Identifiers Requirement in\nrequirement in this\nproposed AD\nparagraph (f) paragraph (g) paragraph (g) paragraph (h) paragraph (h) paragraph (i) Costs of Compliance\nInspection and other actions [retained actions from AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006)] Up to 11 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $935, depending on airplane configuration Up to $16,179, depending on airplane configuration Up to $17,114, depending on airplane configuration Up to $1,694,286, depending on airplane configuration Inspections [new proposed action] Up to 24 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $2,040, depending on airplane configuration $0 Up to $2,040, depending on airplane configuration Up to $201,960, depending on airplane configuration\nWe estimate the following costs to do any necessary related investigative and corrective actions that would be required based on the results of the proposed inspection. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these inspections and replacements:\nOn-Condition costs Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Related Investigative Actions Up to 36 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $3,060, depending on airplane configuration $0 Up to $3,060, depending on airplane configuration Corrective Actions Up to 38 work-hours \u00d7 $85 per hour = $3,230, depending on airplane configuration 0 Up to $3,230, depending on airplane configuration\n2. The FAA amends \u00a7\u200939.13 by removing Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), and adding the following new AD: The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2015-5809; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-055-AD. (a) Comments Due Date\nThis AD replaces AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006).\nThis AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 777-200, -200LR, -300, -300ER, and 777F series airplanes, certified in any category, as identified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0038, dated March 6, 2015.\nThis AD was prompted by a report that an aft fairing lower spar web exceeded the allowable conductivity limits. An investigation concluded that wear to the pan casting and gap cover strips allowed increased heat into the aft fairing heat shield cavity. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct degradation of the aft fairing lower web, which could lead to cracking of the web and could allow flammable fluids to leak into the heat shield pan castings, and consequent increased risk of an uncontained fire and subsequent structural damage.\n(g) Retained Inspection, Installation, and Replacement Actions With No Changes\nThis paragraph restates the actions required by paragraph (f) of AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), with no changes. For Model 777-200 and -300 series airplanes identified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, Revision 1, dated March 16, 2006: Except as provided by paragraph (h) of this AD, within 12 months after October 30, 2006 (the effective date of AD 2006-19-12), do the actions specified in paragraphs (g)(1), (g)(2), (g)(3), and (g)(4) of this AD, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, Revision 1, dated March 16, 2006.\n(h) Retained Repair Instructions\nThis paragraph restates the actions required by paragraph (g) of AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), with no changes. If any damage, discoloration, heat damage, or crack is found during any inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD: Before further flight, do all applicable corrective actions in accordance with a method approved by the Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, or in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, Revision 1, dated March 16, 2006.\n(i) Retained Credit for Previous Actions With Revised Format\nThis paragraph restates the credit provided by paragraph (h) of AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006), with revised format. This paragraph provides credit for actions required by paragraph (g) of this AD, if those actions were performed before October 30, 2006 (the effective date of AD 2006-19-12, Amendment 39-14769 (71 FR 55727, September 25, 2006)) using Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, dated June 23, 2005, except where Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, dated June 23, 2005, does not provide an International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS) value for determining the results of the inspection for heat damage, the maximum acceptable IACS value is 42 percent. Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0021, dated June 23, 2005, is not incorporated by reference in this AD.\nWithin 24 months after the effective date of this AD: Do detailed and conductivity inspections of the aft fairing lower structure for cracks and deformation, as applicable, and do all applicable related investigative and corrective actions, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-54-0038, dated March 6, 2015.

[FR Doc. 2015-29617 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Highway Administration 23 CFR Parts 771 and 774 Federal Transit Administration 49 CFR Part 622 [Docket No. FHWA-2015-0011] FHWA RIN 2125-AF60 FTA RIN 2132-AB26 Environmental Impact and Related Procedures AGENCY:\nThis NPRM provides interested parties with the opportunity to comment on proposed revisions to the FHWA and FTA joint regulations that implement the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act. The revisions are prompted by the enactment of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), which requires rulemaking to address programmatic approaches. This NPRM proposes to revise the FHWA/FTA Environmental Impact and Related Procedures and Parks, Recreation Areas, Wildlife and Waterfowl Refuges, and Historic Sites regulations due to MAP-21 changes to the environmental review process that FHWA and FTA have not previously captured in other rulemakings, such as the use of programmatic agreements and the use of single final environmental impact statement/record of decision documents. In addition, FHWA and FTA propose changes to the regulatory text to improve readability and to reflect current practice, consistent with an Executive order to improve regulations and regulatory review. The FHWA and FTA seek comments on the proposals contained in this notice.\nFederal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov and follow the online instructions for submitting comments.\nMail: Docket Management Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE., West Building Ground Floor Room W12-140, Washington, DC 20590.\nHand Delivery: West Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE., between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The telephone number is (202) 366-9329.\nInstructions: You must include the agency name and docket number or the Regulatory Identifier Number (RIN) for the rulemaking at the beginning of your comments. All comments received will be posted without change to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided.\nFor the FHWA: Neel Vanikar, Office of Project Development and Environmental Review, (202) 366-2068, or Diane Mobley, Office of Chief Counsel, (202) 366-1366. For FTA: Megan Blum, Office of Planning and Environment, (202) 366-0463, or Helen Serassio, Office of Chief Counsel, (202) 366-1974. The FHWA and FTA are both located at 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE., Washington, DC 20590. Office hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.\nOn July 6, 2012, President Obama signed into law MAP-21 (Pub. L. 112-141, 126 Stat. 405), which contains new requirements that FHWA and FTA, hereafter referred to as the \u201cAgencies,\u201d must meet in complying with NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), as well as a requirement to initiate a rulemaking to allow for the use of programmatic approaches. 23 U.S.C. 139(b)(3)(A). Through this NPRM, the Agencies propose to revise their regulations that implement NEPA at 23 CFR part 771\u2014Environmental Impact and Related Procedures, and 23 U.S.C. 138 and 49 U.S.C. 303 (hereafter referred to as Section 4(f)\u20091 ) at 23 CFR part 774\u2014Parks, Recreation Areas, Wildlife and Waterfowl Refuges, and Historic Sites. The proposed revisions would reflect MAP-21 requirements and better reflect current Agency practice, as well as improve readability consistent with Executive Order 13563, \u201cImproving Regulation and Regulatory Review\u201d (2011).\n1\u2009Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966 was repealed in 1983 when it was codified without substantive change at 49 U.S.C. 303. A provision with the same meaning is found at 23 U.S.C. 138. This regulation continues to refer to Section 4(f) as such because the policies Section 4(f) engendered are widely referred to as \u201cSection 4(f)\u201d matters.\nThe following bullets are sections of MAP-21 that affect 23 CFR parts 771 and 774; the list does not include the sections of MAP-21 that have been the subject of other rulemakings:\n\u2022 Section 1119(c)(2) revised the Section 4(f) exception for park road and parkway projects to apply to Federal lands transportation facilities, which affects the Section 4(f) exception in 774.13(e);\n\u2022 Section 1122 replaced the former \u201ctransportation enhancement projects program\u201d with a new \u201ctransportation alternatives projects program,\u201d which affects the Section 4(f) exception in 774.13(g);\n\u2022 Section 1302 amended 23 U.S.C. 108 to address advance acquisition of real property interests, which affects the timing of administrative activities in section 771.113;\n\u2022 Section 1305 amended 23 U.S.C. 139(b)-(e) concerning programmatic approaches for environmental reviews; the Secretary's designation of lead Federal agency for projects with more than one modal administration; participating agency roles and responsibilities; and project initiation information, which affects early coordination, public involvement, and project development as described in section 771.111;\n\u2022 Section 1315 expanded the emergency actions covered by categorical exclusion (CE), which were addressed in a previous rulemaking, but also affected information in section 771.131, emergency action procedures, which are addressed in this rule;\n\u2022 Section 1319 provided for the preparation of a final environmental impact statement (EIS) using errata sheets in certain circumstances and requiring the combination of final EISs with records of decision (ROD) to the maximum extent practicable if certain circumstances are met. This requirement affects definitions in \u00a7\u2009771.107 as well as final EISs and RODs in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009771.125 and 771.127, respectively;\n\u2022 Section 1320(d) provided a definition of \u201cearly coordination activities;\u201d\n\u2022 Section 20003 amended 49 U.S.C. 5301 and struck minimization of environmental impacts from the statement of policies and purposes so the reference to section 5301 has been removed from \u00a7\u2009771.101;\n\u2022 Section 20016 amended 49 U.S.C. 5323 by striking requirements for public review and comment and public hearings for capital projects that will not substantially affect a community or its public transportation service, which affects references in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009771.101 and 771.125; and\n\u2022 Section 20017 amended 49 U.S.C. 5324 by striking requirements for findings of no significant impacts (FONSI) and RODs to have a written statement that no adverse environmental effect is likely from the project or no reasonable and prudent alternative exists and all attempts have been made to minimize effects, which affects a reference in \u00a7\u2009771.125.\nIn addition to the proposed MAP-21-related changes, this proposed rule includes other proposed changes to provide clarification and guidance. All proposed changes are discussed in the next section.\nSection-by-Section Discussion of the Proposals NEPA Regulation Changes (Part 771) Section 771.101\u2003Purpose\nThe Agencies propose to remove outdated references from and include new references in \u00a7\u2009771.101 in accordance with MAP-21. The Agencies propose to revise the last sentence in section 101 to include MAP-21 references and updated U.S. Code references: \u201cThis regulation also sets forth procedures to comply with 23 U.S.C. 109(h), 128, 138, 139, 325, 326, 327; 49 U.S.C. 303, and 5323(q); and Pub. L. 112-141, 126 Stat. 405, sections 1301, and 1319.\u201d\nSection 771.103\u2003[Reserved]\nThe Agencies propose no changes to section 771.103 in this NPRM.\nThe Agencies propose to remove references to specific guidance documents in the footnote to paragraph (a). The revised footnote would continue to refer to the Agencies' Web sites for the most recent guidance documents. These changes will allow the regulation to stay current as the Agencies release new guidance documents.\nThe Agencies propose to add a new paragraph (b) to support development of programmatic approaches consistent with MAP-21 Section 1305(a) (23 U.S.C. 139(b)): it is the Administration's policy that \u201c[p]rogrammatic approaches be developed for compliance with environmental requirements, coordination among agencies and/or the public, or to otherwise enhance and accelerate project development.\u201d Addressing programmatic approaches in this section and under a separate paragraph refects the Agencies' intent to encourage their broader use.\nWith the addition of proposed paragraph (b), current paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) would be re-lettered as paragraphs (c), (d), (e), (f), and (g), respectively. The Agencies propose no change in wording to any of these paragraphs.\nThe Agencies propose to modify the first sentence of the definition of \u201cAdministration action\u201d from passive voice to active voice without losing the original intent of the definition: \u201cFHWA or FTA approval of the applicant's request for Federal funds for construction.\u201d The rest of the definition would not change.\nThe Agencies propose to modify the definition of \u201capplicant\u201d by adding the word \u201cFederal\u201d to include Federal governmental units as potential applicants. This change would provide for instances when the Federal Lands program is an FHWA applicant.\nThe Agencies propose to add a definition for \u201cprogrammatic approaches\u201d to \u00a7\u2009771.107 consistent with MAP-21 Section 1305(a) (23 U.S.C. 139(b)). The proposed definition is \u201can approach that reduces the need for project-by-project reviews, eliminates repetitive discussion of the same issue, or focuses on the actual issues ripe for analyses at each level of review, while maintaining appropriate consideration for the environment\u201d and is taken in large part from 23 U.S.C. 139(b)(3)(A). The Agencies do not propose adding or deleting any other definitions.\nThe Agencies propose to modify the definition of \u201cProject sponsor\u201d by adding \u201cFederal funding\u201d to the definition and clarifying that the project sponsor, if not the applicant, may conduct some of the activities on behalf of the applicant. This change would slightly broaden the definition of project sponsor and make it consistent with other parts of the regulation, as well as clarify that the project sponsor and the applicant are not always one and the same entity. The proposed revised definition is \u201c[t]he Federal, State, local, or federally-recognized Indian tribal governmental unit, or other entity, including any private or public-private entity that seeks Federal funding or an Administration action for a project. The project sponsor, if not the applicant, may conduct some of the activities on behalf of the applicant.\u201d\nThe Agencies propose to modify the definition of \u201cSection 4(f)\u201d to include a reference to the current implementing regulations for Section 4(f) (23 CFR part 774), and to delete footnote 2, which is discussed in 23 CFR part 774.\nStructurally, the Agencies propose reorganizing the definitions within this section by organizing them in alphabetical order and removing the lettering of paragraphs. This change is consistent with other regulations (e.g., 23 CFR part 774), and will aid reader comprehension, as definitions are typically in alphabetical order. In addition, this change would reduce future associated formatting changes to the regulation should definitions be added or removed.\nThe Agencies propose several changes to \u00a7\u2009771.109 that provide greater clarity on Agency, project sponsor, and applicant responsibilities, as well as improve the organizational structure of the section. For example, the Agencies propose to reorganize paragraph (b) by renumbering it as paragraph (b)(1) and to modify the language of proposed paragraph (b)(1) by adding the phrase \u201cunless the Administration approves of their deletion or modification in writing\u201d to the end of the first sentence. This text is not new; the Agencies propose to move this concept from the last clause in paragraph (d) of this section and revise the language to be in active voice, clarifying that the Administration performs the action (i.e., the Agencies will approve of any deletions or modifications of mitigation measures previously committed to in the environmental documents prepared pursuant to this regulation). In addition to that change, the Agencies propose to modify the language of proposed paragraph (b)(1) by clarifying the responsibilities of FHWA in the second sentence. The current phrase, \u201cprogram management,\u201d would be replaced with \u201cstewardship and oversight,\u201d and the phrase, \u201cthat include reviews of designs, plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E), and construction inspections,\u201d would be deleted. The Agencies propose this change to reflect the customary practice and responsibilities of FHWA. In summary, paragraph (b)(1) would read, \u201cThe applicant, in cooperation with the Administration, is responsible for implementing those mitigation measures stated as commitments in the environmental documents prepared pursuant to this regulation unless the Administration approves of their deletion or modification in writing. The FHWA will assure that this is accomplished as a part of its stewardship and oversight responsibilities. The FTA will assure implementation of committed mitigation measures through incorporation by reference in the grant agreement, followed by reviews of designs and construction inspections.\u201d\nThe Agencies propose creating a new paragraph (b)(2) that reaffirms FHWA's commitment to ensuring that the State highway agency with which it partners fulfills all environmental commitments as listed in approved environmental review documents. The language found in proposed paragraph (b)(2) was previously found in section 771.109(d), though the last clause of paragraph (d) was added to paragraph (b)(1) as explained above. The Agencies moved the language to its new position in paragraph (b)(2) in order to improve the logical sequence of the section; paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(2) both address mitigation measures.\nThe Agencies propose to add a new paragraph (c)(7) that clarifies the responsibility of a participating agency: \u201c[a] participating agency is responsible for providing input, as appropriate, during the times specified in the coordination plan under 23 U.S.C. 139(g), and providing comments and concurrence on a schedule if included within the coordination plan.\u201d This change is proposed in accordance with MAP-21 Section 1305(e) (23 U.S.C. 139(g)(1)(B)(i)).\nAs noted in the discussion above, the Agencies propose to delete paragraph (d), as these responsibilities are now articulated through revisions to paragraph (b)(1) and in proposed new paragraph (b)(2).\nUpon review of \u00a7\u2009771.111, the Agencies found the beginning of the section to be out of logical order. The Agencies propose to reorganize paragraph (a) into three subparagraphs, keeping much of the same information: Paragraph (a)(1) addresses early coordination activities; paragraph (a)(2) covers the transportation planning process in relation to the environmental review process; and paragraph (a)(3) remains focused on class of action identification. The proposed new sentence in paragraph (a)(1) would discuss the benefits of early coordination activities: \u201cThese [early coordination] activities contribute to reducing or eliminating delay, duplicative processes, and conflict by incorporating planning outcomes that have been reviewed by agencies and Indian tribal partners in project development.\u201d The Agencies developed this language after considering the language in section 1320(a)(1) of MAP-21, which essentially contains the goals of early coordination. Early coordination activities include: (1) Technical assistance on identifying potential impacts and mitigation issues; (2) the potential appropriateness of using planning products and decisions in later environmental reviews; and (3) the identification and elimination from detailed study in the environmental review process of the issues that are not significant or that have been covered by prior environmental reviews (for the list of activities, see MAP-21 Section 1320(d)). The Agencies propose deleting the second sentence currently in paragraph (a)(1) (\u201cThis involves the exchange of information from the inception of a proposal for action to preparation of the environmental review documents.\u201d) because it is duplicative of the concepts addressed in paragraph (a)(2) (now proposed paragraph (a)(2)(i)).\nThe Agencies propose modifying current paragraph (a)(2) by renumbering it as paragraph (a)(2)(i) and updating the citations to read \u201c40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508, 23 CFR part 450, or 23 U.S.C. 168\u201d in order to be more encompassing of the referenced statute and regulations. In addition, a new paragraph (a)(2)(ii) would address the inclusion of mitigation actions in the planning process: \u201cThe planning process described in paragraph (a)(2)(i) may include mitigation actions consistent with a programmatic mitigation plan developed pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 169 or from a programmatic mitigation plan developed outside of that framework.\u201d Programmatic mitigation plans are the subject of a separate on-going MAP-21 rulemaking action (see 79 FR 31784, June 2, 2014); in the event the Agencies publish a final rule, the Agencies would revise the proposed paragraph (a)(2)(ii) text to include a reference to the applicable regulation. The Agencies propose including the reference to programmatic mitigation plans to further encourage the link between the planning and environmental processes.\nFinally, paragraph (a)(3) would include the class of action identification language currently found in the last two sentences of paragraph (a)(1): \u201cApplicants intending to apply for funds should notify the Administration at the time that a project concept is identified. When requested, the Administration will advise the applicant, insofar as possible, of the probable class of action (see 23 CFR 771.115) and related environmental laws and requirements and of the need for specific studies and findings that would normally be developed during the environmental review process.\u201d Generally, this is a non-substantive change in that most of the information found in proposed new paragraph (a)(3) comes from the current paragraph (a)(1). But the Agencies clarified that the Administration may advise applicants of the need for specific studies and findings that would normally be developed during the environmental review process by replacing \u201cconcurrently with\u201d with \u201cduring,\u201d and \u201cdocuments\u201d with \u201cprocess.\u201d The Agencies want to highlight through these changes that the focus is on the environmental review process, not documents, and the studies and findings performed are completed as part of the process.\nIn paragraph (c), the Agencies propose to replace the word \u201cproject\u201d with \u201caction\u201d to be consistent within 23 CFR part 771 and to more accurately reflect the work of the Agencies, which is not solely devoted to projects but to actions taken in advancement of projects. \u201cAction\u201d is defined in section 771.107.\nIn paragraph (d), the Agencies propose to delete the outdated footnote (footnote 4): \u201cThe FHWA and FTA have developed guidance on 23 U.S.C. Section 139 titled \u201cSAFETEA-LU Environmental Review Process: Final Guidance,\u201d November 15, 2006, and available at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov or in hard copy upon request.\u201d The Agencies are updating the guidance regarding section 139 to reflect MAP-21 changes and may update the guidance in response to future transportation bills. In order to maximize the flexibility of these regulations, the Agencies propose deleting the specific reference to the 2006 document.\nIn paragraph (e), the Agencies propose to revise the second sentence to read: \u201cThe Administration will provide direction to the applicant on how to approach any significant unresolved issues as early as possible during the environmental review process.\u201d This replaces the provision that the \u201cAdministration will prepare a written evaluation of any significant unresolved issues.\u201d The change reflects current practice and is consistent with the responsibilities of the Agencies. The Agencies also replaced the references to environmental assessments and draft EIS documents with the broader term \u201cenvironmental review process\u201d because the Agencies may provide direction on any class of action. Although a CE will not have significant unresolved issues, the Agencies could provide early input on an action with significant unresolved issues that allow for the use of a CE.\nParagraph (f) would notably be modified to include CEs. The Agencies propose replacing \u201cIn order to ensure meaningful evaluation of alternatives and to avoid commitments to transportation improvements before they are fully evaluated, the action evaluated in each EIS or finding of no significant impact (FONSI) shall:\u201d with \u201cAny action evaluated through a categorical exclusion (CE), environmental assessment (EA), or environmental impact statement (EIS) shall:\u201d. This change would clarify that actions evaluated in a CE, EA, or EIS must comply with NEPA requirements related to connected actions and segmentation, per 40 CFR 1508.25. The Agencies recognize that projects cannot be segmented improperly, regardless of the NEPA class of action; any action evaluated must have independent utility, connect logical termini when applicable (i.e., linear facilities), and not restrict consideration of alternatives for other reasonably foreseeable transportation improvements. The Agencies have presented this guidance in recent rulemakings (e.g., 79 FR 60100, October 6, 2014 and 79 FR 2107, January 13, 2014). For consistency, the term \u201cFONSI\u201d would be removed from the list and replaced with \u201cEA.\u201d\nThe Agencies propose to delete the outdated footnote in paragraph (h)(2)(viii) regarding Section 4(f) guidance (\u201cThe FHWA and FTA have developed guidance on Section 4(f) de minimis impact findings titled \u201cGuidance for Determining De Minimis Impacts to Section 4(f) Resources,\u201d December 13, 2005, which is available at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov or in hard copy upon request.\u201d) as de minimis guidance is now included in the Section 4(f) Policy Paper, available at http://www.environment.fhwa.dot.gov/4f/4fpolicy.pdf.\nThe Agencies propose a number of non-substantive modifications to paragraph (i) in subparagraphs (1), (3), and (4). Subparagraph (1) would be modified to improve readability and improve understanding. The term \u201cprojects\u201d would be replaced with \u201cactions\u201d to better reflect the work of the Agencies in two places, and the first sentence would be changed to reflect that scoping is about the environmental review \u201cprocess,\u201d not simply about \u201cdocuments.\u201d In addition, the Agencies propose to remove the last sentence, \u201cFor other projects that substantially affect the community or its public transportation service, an adequate opportunity for public review and comment must be provided,\u201d because the support for the statement (i.e., 49 U.S.C. 5323) was repealed by MAP-21 Section 20016, and the opportunity for the public to review EA and EIS documents is provided for in sections 771.119 (EA) and 771.123 (draft EIS). In subparagraph (3), the Agencies would modify the first sentence to provide examples of \u201cNEPA documents\u201d by adding \u201c(e.g., EAs and EISs),\u201d and would add \u201cenvironmental studies (e.g., technical reports)\u201d and \u201cmeeting\u201d minutes to the list of potential information and material that the Agencies encourage applicants for capital assistance in the FTA program to post and distribute to enhance public involvement. Finally, in subparagraph (4), the Agencies would clarify and update the list of materials FTA encourages applicants in the FTA program to post on a project Web site until the project is constructed and open for operation. This list would include FONSIs, combined final EIS/RODs, and RODs. This sentence would now read: \u201cAre encouraged to post all findings of no significant impact (FONSI), combined final environmental impact statement (EIS)/records of decision (ROD), and RODs on a project Web site until the project is constructed and open for operation.\u201d\nParagraph (j) would be modified to include updated contact information for FTA, and the Web site address for each Agency. These changes are meant simply to provide complete contact information for both Agencies.\nThe Agencies propose modest changes to each of the four paragraphs in \u00a7\u2009771.113. In paragraph (a), the Agencies propose revising the paragraph by replacing the phrase \u201c(if not a lead agency)\u201d with \u201cand project sponsor as appropriate,\u201d in the first sentence. This change recognizes that the applicant and the project sponsor are not always the same entity and may not be identified as \u201clead agencies,\u201d but they may work with the lead agencies to \u201cperform the work necessary to complete the environmental review process.\u201d As noted in the previous sentence, the Agencies would also revise the sentence by replacing the text, \u201ca finding of no significant impact (FONSI) or a record of decision (ROD) and comply with other related environmental laws and regulations to the maximum extent possible during the NEPA process\u201d with the text, \u201cthe environmental review process.\u201d This modification changes the focus from the completion of a FONSI or a ROD to the completion of the environmental review process, which is a broader term and more accurately reflects the Agencies' goals. In addition, the Agencies propose revising the second sentence to more clearly provide examples of work that takes place during the review process. This sentence would be changed from, \u201cThis work includes environmental studies, related engineering studies, agency coordination and public involvement\u201d to \u201cThis work includes drafting environmental documents and completing studies, related engineering studies, agency coordination, and public involvement.\u201d Finally, the Agencies propose reorganizing the last sentence to bring the exception clause forward to lend greater reader comprehension; there is no content change to the last sentence.\nIn subparagraph (a)(1), the Agencies propose to update the document types that indicate the environmental review process is complete. In (a)(1)(i), the Agencies would simply use \u201cCE.\u201d In paragraph (a)(1)(ii), the Agencies would reword the sentence to make clear that the Administration issues a FONSI by replacing passive language with active language and by adding the text \u201cThe Administration has issued a\u201d before \u201cFONSI\u201d and deleting \u201chas been approved.\u201d In paragraph (a)(1)(iii), the Agencies would replace the text, \u201cA final EIS has been approved and available for the prescribed period of time and a record of decision has been signed\u201d with \u201cThe Administration has issued a combined final EIS/ROD or a final EIS and ROD.\u201d This change would be in compliance with MAP-21 Section 1319.\nParagraph (b) would be reworded to clarify that it applies to FHWA alone. The phrase \u201cFor activities proposed for FHWA action\u201d would be added to the beginning of the sentence.\nIn paragraph (d), the Agencies propose several modifications pursuant to MAP-21, including MAP-21 Section 1302 (and as implemented in 23 CFR part 710, subpart E, Property Acquisition Alternatives), MAP-21 Section 20008, and MAP-21 Section 20016. Generally, final design activities, property acquisition, purchase of construction materials or rolling stock, or project construction cannot proceed until the proposed action has been classified as a CE or a decision document has been issued. Exceptions to that prohibition, however, are found in paragraph (d). The Agencies propose modifying the text for subparagraph (d)(1) to read, \u201cEarly acquisition, hardship and protective acquisitions of real property in accordance with 23 CFR part 710, subpart E for FHWA.\u201d This exception refers the reader to FHWA property acquisition regulations for the acquisition compliance requirements. The FTA's existing exception in subparagraph (d)(1) (i.e., the second sentence) would not change. To summarize, this subparagraph states that acquisition of land for hardship or protective purposes may occur prior to the completion of NEPA for Agency actions. Subparagraph (d)(2) pertains to FTA only; the text, revised as proposed, would no longer refer to FTA's \u201cacquisition of right-of-way\u201d CE, specifically, but would refer to the broader corridor preservation statute and guidance, pursuant to MAP-21 Section 20016. The proposed text for subparagraph (d)(2) would read: \u201cThe early acquisition of right-of-way for future transit use in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5323(q) and FTA guidance.\u201d The Agencies propose deleting subparagraphs (d)(3) and (d)(4) because the proposed language in subparagraph (d)(1) broadly encompasses 23 CFR part 710; therefore, the current references to 23 CFR 710.503 and 23 CFR 710.501 would no longer be necessary. Finally, subparagraph (d)(5) would be renumbered as subparagraph (d)(3), and the statutory reference at the end of the sentence would be updated to reflect changes to 49 U.S.C. 5309 by MAP-21 Section 20008: \u201cA limited exception for rolling stock is provided in 49 U.S.C. 5309(l)(6).\u201d These are non-substantive changes.\nThe Agencies propose several minor modifications to \u00a7\u2009771.115 to clarify this section. In the introductory paragraph, the Agencies would add the sentence \u201cA programmatic approach may be used for any class of action\u201d to be consistent with MAP-21 Section 1305 (23 U.SC. 139(b)).\nIn paragraph (a), the Agencies would move the acronym \u201cEIS\u201d to the beginning of the sentence and move \u201cClass 1\u201d to parentheses to aid in readability.\nParagraph (a) states that \u201cactions that significantly affect the environment require an EIS\u201d and provides examples of actions that normally require an EIS in the subsequent subparagraphs. In subparagraph (a)(3), FTA proposes to modify the current example, \u201cConstruction or extension of a fixed transit facility (e.g., rapid rail, light rail, commuter rail, bus rapid transit) that will not be located within an existing transportation right-of-way,\u201d by inserting the term \u201cprimarily\u201d before \u201cwithin an existing transportation right-of-way.\u201d This addition would be in response to FTA's recent revisions to its list of CEs since 2012, including the \u201cassembly or construction of facilities\u201d CE (23 CFR 771.118(c)(9)). The FTA has categorically excluded some actions from requiring an EIS or EA when they take place primarily or entirely within existing transportation right-of-way; therefore, FTA proposes adding \u201cprimarily\u201d to subparagraph (a)(3) in order to distinguish clearly that actions not primarily within existing transportation right-of-way will normally require an EIS.\nIn subparagraph (a)(4), the Agencies would add \u201cFor FHWA actions\u201d to the beginning of the sentence, but no other modifications are proposed to the subparagraph: \u201cFor FHWA actions, new construction or extension of a separate roadway for buses or high occupancy vehicles not located within an existing highway facility.\u201d The Agencies propose this change because the Agencies propose adding a new subparagraph (a)(5) to reflect FTA actions. The subparagraph (a)(5) language would be similar to subparagraph (a)(4) language, but it would not refer to high occupancy vehicles because they are not typically part of the FTA program. In addition, the subparagraph would include the \u201cnot located primarily within an existing transportation right-of-way\u201d condition (emphasis added) to reflect FTA's program, as discussed above for subparagraph (a)(3). Proposed subparagraph (a)(5) would read: \u201cFor FTA actions, new construction or extension of a separate roadway for buses not located primarily within an existing transportation right-of-way.\u201d\nAs the Agencies propose for paragraph (a), the Agencies propose moving the acronym for CEs to the beginning of the sentence in paragraph (b), and moving the acronym for EAs to the beginning of the sentence in paragraph (c) to aid in readability, followed by their class in parentheses. Finally, the Agencies propose to slightly reword the first sentence in paragraph (c) to clarify that it is the Administration's responsibility to determine the significance of the environmental impact, and where significance is not clearly established, then an EA would be the appropriate class of action. The first sentence in paragraph (c) would read, \u201cActions in which the Administration has not clearly established the significance of the environmental impact.\u201d\nSection 771.117\u2003FHWA Categorical Exclusions\nThe Agencies propose no changes to \u00a7\u2009771.117 in this NPRM.\nSection 771.118\u2003FTA Categorical Exclusions\nThe Agencies propose modifications to paragraphs (a) through (f) and paragraph (h) in \u00a7\u2009771.119. In paragraph (a), the Agencies would revise the first sentence from passive voice to active voice. It would instead read as, \u201cThe applicant shall prepare an EA. . .\u201d This would make it clear that it is the applicant's responsibility to prepare an EA. In addition, the Agencies would reorganize the paragraph as subparagraph (a)(i). This change would aid in readability. It would also support a second proposed modification to paragraph (a): New subparagraph (a)(ii).\nThe Agencies propose adding a new subparagraph (a)(ii) that would apply to FTA actions alone. Subparagraph (a)(ii) would read, \u201cFor FTA actions: When FTA or the applicant, as joint lead agency, select a contractor to prepare the EA, then the contractor shall execute an FTA conflict of interest disclosure statement. The statement must be maintained in the FTA Regional Office and with the applicant. The contractor's scope of work for the preparation of the EA will not be finalized until the early coordination activities or scoping process found in paragraph (b) is completed (including FTA approval, in consultation with the applicant, of the scope of the EA content).\u201d This new subparagraph would address two issues. First, it would specify that if the applicant selects a contractor to prepare the EA, the contractor must execute an FTA conflict of interest disclosure statement (statement) attesting to the lack of a conflict of interest in the NEPA process, pursuant to 40 CFR 1506.5. The Agencies propose that the statement must be maintained in the FTA Regional Office and with the applicant. This addition to our regulation is not a major change from how FTA and its applicants currently prepare EAs, but it updates our regulation to reflect current practice. Second, proposed subparagraph (a)(ii) would require that the contractor's scope of work for the preparation of the EA not be finalized until the early coordination activities or scoping process found in paragraph (b) has been completed. Under this proposal, the contractor's scope of work would not be finalized until FTA and the applicant have approved the scope, in terms of NEPA, of the EA analysis and documentation. This addition would emphasize the importance that FTA places on early coordination activities and scoping for its NEPA documents, with the goal being more refined analyses that focus on significant issues rather than all potential impacts. Although scoping as a formal process is associated with EISs, a less formal type of scoping may be conducted for projects evaluated with EAs. Regardless of the form early coordination takes, FTA believes this addition will lead to better decisionmaking and documentation. Note, the language proposed for subparagraph (a)(ii) is similar to language proposed in a previous NPRM (see 77 FR 15310, March 15, 2012), but the language was never finalized. The FTA considered the comments received during the previous NPRM comment period when developing the language proposed in this rule.\nIn paragraph (b), the Agencies would revise the last two sentences regarding early coordination activities to read, \u201cThe applicant shall accomplish this through early coordination activities or through a scoping process. The applicant shall summarize the public involvement process and include the results of agency coordination in the EA.\u201d The Agencies changed the reference from \u201can early coordination process (i.e., procedures under \u00a7\u2009771.111)\u201d to \u201cearly coordination activities\u201d for consistency with other early coordination references proposed in this rule and MAP-21 Section 1320. The Agencies modified the last sentence by (1) revising language from passive voice to active voice and (2) identifying the applicant as the entity responsible for summarizing the public involvement process and including the results of agency coordination in the EA, which reflects current practice.\nIn paragraph (c), the Agencies would revise the sentence to clearly state in a reader-friendly manner that the Administration must approve the EA before it is made available to the public. Paragraph (c) would read: \u201cThe Administration must approve the EA before it is made available to the public as an Administration document.\u201d\nIn paragraph (d), the Agencies would revise the text from passive voice to active voice, clearly identify the responsibilities of the applicant, and make this paragraph easier to read and understand overall. Paragraph (d) would read: \u201cThe applicant does not need to circulate the EA for comment but the document must be made available for public inspection at the applicant's office and at the appropriate Administration field offices in accordance with paragraphs (e) and (f) of this section. The applicant shall send the notice of availability of the EA, which briefly describes the action and its impacts, to the affected units of Federal, State, and local government. The applicant shall also send notice to the State intergovernmental review contacts established under Executive Order 12372.\u201d Other than clearly identifying the applicant's role in this paragraph, there are no changes regarding content.\nIn paragraph (e), the Agencies would revise the first sentence by changing the text from \u201cas part of the application for Federal funds\u201d to \u201cas part of the environmental review process for an action.\u201d This change more accurately reflects current practice and is consistent with other changes proposed in this rule (e.g., use of \u201cenvironmental review process\u201d and \u201caction\u201d). In addition, the Agencies propose revising the second and third sentence of paragraph (e) by clarifying the applicant's role in providing notice of the public hearing and availability of the EA and clarifying when comments are accepted on the EA, respectively. The second and third sentences of paragraph (e) would read: \u201cThe applicant shall publish a notice of the public hearing in local newspapers that announces the availability of the EA and where it may be obtained or reviewed. Any comments must be submitted in writing to the applicant or the Administration during the 30-day availability period of the EA unless the Administration determines, for good cause, that a different period is warranted.\u201d These changes are minor but improve the quality of the written language.\nThe Agencies propose revising the last sentence in paragraph (f) to reflect the changes proposed for the last sentence in paragraph (e) regarding comment submittal during the EA public availability period. Paragraph (f) would read: \u201cWhen a public hearing is not held, the applicant shall place a notice in a newspaper(s) similar to a public hearing notice and at a similar stage of development of the action, advising the public of the availability of the EA and where information concerning the action may be obtained. The notice shall invite comments from all interested parties. Any comments must be submitted in writing to the applicant or the Administration during the 30-day availability period of the EA unless the Administration determines, for good cause, that a different period is warranted.\u201d This is a non-substantive change proposed for consistency between paragraphs.\nLastly, the Agencies propose to limit paragraph (h) to FHWA actions only by replacing \u201cAdministration\u201d with \u201cFHWA\u201d at the beginning of the paragraph. For FTA project sponsors, application of the Council on Environmental Quality's (CEQ) regulatory provision alone aligns better with how transit projects are planned, developed, and reviewed. The FTA would direct its applicants and project sponsors to rely on the CEQ NEPA Implementing Regulations, specifically 40 CFR 1501.4(e)(2), which requires that in certain circumstances the FONSI be available for public review for 30 days before FTA makes its final determination and before the action may begin. This requirement applies when the proposed action is (or is closely similar to) one that normally requires the preparation of an EIS pursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.115, or when the nature of the proposed action is one without precedent.\nSection 771.121\u2003Findings of No Significant Impact\nThe Agencies propose minor text revisions to all three paragraphs in \u00a7\u2009771.121. In paragraph (a), the Agencies propose to reword the first sentence to reflect existing practice: \u201cThe Administration will review the EA, comments submitted on the EA (in writing or at public hearings/meetings), and other supporting documentation, as appropriate.\u201d This is a non-substantive change and is meant to improve readability.\nSimilarly, in paragraph (b), the Agencies propose to reword the first sentence in active voice and to make it clear to the reader that the Administration issues a FONSI. The first sentence would be rewritten to read, \u201cAfter the Administration issues a FONSI . . .\u201d This non-substantive change does not affect the responsibility of the Administration in issuing a FONSI, and it does not affect the applicant's responsibility in providing notice of availability of the FONSI to affected units of Federal, State, and local government or any other responsibilities noted within this section.\nIn paragraph (c), the Agencies propose a slight modification to include those times when the Administration may have an approval role for another Federal agency's action (e.g., when FHWA issues Interstate Access Point Approval). The modification would add \u201cor approval\u201d after \u201cAdministration funding\u201d in the first sentence: \u201cIf another Federal agency has issued a FONSI on an action which includes an element proposed for Administration funding or approval . . .\u201d In these rare situations, the Administration would evaluate the other agency's \u201cEA/FONSI\u201d (replacing the term \u201cFONSI\u201d at the end of the first sentence) in determining whether to issue its own FONSI incorporating the other agency's \u201cEA/FONSI\u201d (again, replacing the term \u201cFONSI\u201d but at the end of the second sentence). The Administration could also issue a CE for the element of the project proposed for Administration funding or approval if it determines that a CE would be appropriate.\nThe Agencies propose a number of modifications to \u00a7\u2009771.123. In paragraph (b), the Agencies would revise the language in the first sentence to reference CEQ's NEPA Implementing Regulations (40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508), and replace \u201cwhich\u201d with \u201cthat.\u201d In addition, the Agencies propose deleting the reference to the FHWA in the third sentence and deleting the fourth sentence pertaining to FTA; the revised third sentence would apply to both Agencies. The Agencies propose paragraph (b) read: \u201cAfter publication of the Notice of Intent, the lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant (if not a lead agency), will begin a scoping process that may take into account any planning work already accomplished, in accordance with 23 CFR 450.212, 450.318, or any applicable provisions of the CEQ regulations at 40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508. The scoping process will be used to identify the purpose and need, the range of alternatives and impacts, and the significant issues to be addressed in the EIS and to achieve the other objectives of 40 CFR 1501.7. Scoping is normally achieved through public and agency involvement procedures required by \u00a7\u2009771.111. If a scoping meeting is to be held, it should be announced in the Administration's Notice of Intent and by appropriate means at the local level.\u201d These minor changes would update the text to be more encompassing of the environmental review requirements and more readable.\nIn paragraph (d), the Agencies would add language requiring a conflict of interest disclosure for FTA actions. This change would be consistent with proposed modifications to section 771.119(a)(ii) and 40 CFR 1506.5(c). Paragraph (d) would read, \u201cAny of the lead agencies may select a consultant to assist in the preparation of an EIS in accordance with applicable contracting procedures and with 40 CFR 1506.5(c). For FTA actions: When FTA or the applicant, as joint lead agency, select a contractor to prepare the EIS, then the contractor shall execute an FTA conflict of interest disclosure statement. The statement must be maintained in the FTA Regional Office and with the applicant. The contractor's scope of work for the preparation of the EIS will not be finalized until the early coordination activities or scoping process found in paragraph (b) is completed (including FTA approval, in consultation with the applicant, of the scope of the EIS content).\u201d See the discussion above in \u00a7\u2009771.119 for a more robust discussion regarding this proposed addition.\nThe Agencies propose to add a new paragraph (e). Proposed new paragraph (e) would encourage identification of the preferred alternative in the draft EIS: \u201cThe draft EIS should identify the preferred alternative to the extent practicable. If the draft EIS does not identify the preferred alternative, the Administration should provide agencies and the public with an opportunity after issuance of the draft EIS to review the impacts.\u201d This addition would update the regulations in response to changes created by MAP-21 Section 1319 and is consistent with the Agencies' \u201cInterim Guidance on MAP-21 Section 1319 Accelerated Decisionmaking in Environmental Reviews\u201d (January 14, 2013) (\u201cSection 1319 Guidance\u201d). It would also provide for the cases where the preferred alternative is not identified in the draft EIS. Section 1319(b) directs the lead agency, to the maximum extent practicable, to expeditiously develop a single document that consists of a final EIS and ROD, unless certain conditions exist. By identifying the preferred alternative in the draft EIS, the lead agencies more easily facilitate issuance of a combined final EIS/ROD document.\nThe Agencies would also add a new paragraph (f). Proposed new paragraph (f) would allow the lead agency to develop the preferred alternative (or portion thereof) for a project to a higher level of detail than other alternatives in order to facilitate the development of mitigation measures or compliance with requirements for permitting: \u201cAt the discretion of the lead agency, the preferred alternative (or portion thereof) for a project, after being identified, may be developed to a higher level of detail than other alternatives in order to facilitate the development of mitigation measures or compliance with requirements for permitting. The development of such higher level of detail must not prevent the lead agency from making an impartial decision as to whether to accept another alternative that is being considered in the environmental review process.\u201d This concept is not new to the Agencies, as it was codified in 23 U.S.C. 139 via the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) in 2005; the Agencies propose including a direct copy of the codified language (23 U.S.C. 139(f)(4)(d)) in this section. It is important to note that although the development of such higher level of detail is acceptable in some circumstances as noted in the proposed language, the lead agency must make an impartial decision among the alternatives considered in the environmental review process. Including this proposed paragraph would help streamline the environmental review process, particularly in terms of fulfilling permitting requirements and possibly in terms of complying with MAP-21 Section 1319(b). It also would safeguard the impartiality of the alternative analysis done during the NEPA process.\nWith the addition of proposed new paragraphs (e) and (f), current paragraphs (e), (f), (g), (h), and (i) would be re-lettered as paragraphs (g), (h), (i), (j), and (k), respectively.\nIn paragraph (g), the Agencies propose to add a sentence that encourages including a notice on the cover sheet that the Administration will issue a combined final EIS/ROD document unless statutory criteria or practicability considerations preclude it. This change would be consistent with MAP-21 Section 1319(b). Paragraph (g) would read: \u201cThe Administration, when satisfied that the draft EIS complies with NEPA requirements, will approve the draft EIS for circulation by signing and dating the cover sheet. The cover sheet should include a notice that after circulation of the draft EIS and consideration of the comments received, the Administration will issue a combined final EIS/ROD document unless statutory criteria or practicability considerations preclude issuance of the combined document.\u201d\nThe Agencies propose modifying the first sentence of paragraph (i) (existing paragraph (g)) to read, \u201cThe applicant, on behalf of the Administration, shall circulate the draft EIS for comment.\u201d This change is non-substantive and would change the current text from passive voice to active voice. In addition, two subparagraphs of paragraph (i) would be slightly modified. In subparagraph (i)(2), the Agencies propose to replace \u201cFederal, State and local government agencies expected to have jurisdiction or responsibility over, or interest or expertise in, the action,\u201d with \u201cCooperating and participating agencies,\u201d because the types of agencies listed are typically cooperating or participating agencies in the Agencies' environmental review process. This change is consistent with 23 U.S.C. 139 and 40 CFR 1508.5, and provides additional consistency within the Agencies' regulations. In proposed subparagraph (i)(3), the Agencies would correct a small grammatical error; the word \u201cwhich\u201d would be replaced with \u201cthat.\u201d This change would be non-substantive.\nThe Agencies propose to delete the first two sentences found in existing paragraph (h), which contain specific FHWA and FTA references. The Agencies also propose to revise the third sentence to include a general reference to \u00a7\u2009771.111, which would broaden the existing language to clearly apply to both agencies. These changes would be reflected in proposed paragraph (j); the first sentence would read: \u201cWhen a public hearing on the draft EIS is held (if required by 23 CFR 771.111), the draft EIS shall be available at the public hearing and for a minimum of 15 days in advance of the public hearing.\u201d This rewriting would not change the substance of the paragraph or current practice; a draft EIS would still be required to be available at the public hearing and for a minimum of 15 days in advance of the public hearing, should one be held on the draft EIS, and the reader is directed to \u00a7\u2009771.111 for specific Agency information. The remainder of the paragraph would remain unchanged.\nThe Agencies propose to add new \u00a7\u2009771.124 to address MAP-21 Section 1319(b) development of a combined final EIS/ROD. Section 1319(b) directs Agencies, to the maximum extent practicable, to expeditiously develop a single document that consists of a final EIS and ROD, unless certain conditions exist.\nProposed paragraph (a)(1) would make the section 1319(b) requirement clear and identify the conditions when a combined final EIS/ROD document would not be appropriate: \u201cAfter circulation of a draft EIS and consideration of comments received, the lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant (if not a lead agency), shall combine the final EIS and record of decision (ROD), to the maximum extent practicable, unless (1) the final EIS makes substantial changes to the proposed action that are relevant to environmental or safety concerns, or (2) there are significant new circumstances or information relevant to environmental concerns and that bear on the proposed action or the impacts of the proposed action.\u201d This language is consistent with the MAP-21 language and the Agencies' Section 1319 Guidance.\nThe existing applicable requirements for both a final EIS and ROD must be met for issuance of a combined final EIS/ROD document. Proposed paragraph (a)(2) clarifies this and refers the reader to other applicable requirements: \u201cWhen the combined final EIS/ROD is a single document, it shall include the content of a final EIS presented in \u00a7\u2009771.125 and present the basis for the decision as specified in 40 CFR 1505.2, summarize any mitigation measures that will be incorporated in the project, and document any required Section 4(f) approval in accordance with part 774 of this title.\u201d\nProposed paragraph (a)(3) establishes that both provisions of MAP-21 Section 1319 (i.e., paragraphs (a) and (b)) may be used in concert with each other. The proposed language is: \u201cIf the comments on the draft EIS are minor and confined to factual corrections or explanations that do not warrant additional agency response, an errata sheet may be attached to the draft statement, which together shall then become the combined final EIS/ROD document.\u201d Errata sheets are not new to the Agencies, but the Agencies are including them in this section in response to MAP-21 Section 1319(a) to highlight their potential use, especially with the new combined final EIS/ROD document type. When both errata sheets and a combined final EIS/ROD are used, the combined final NEPA document would consist of the draft EIS, errata sheets, and any additional information required in a final EIS and ROD.\nProposed paragraph (a)(4) establishes that a combined final EIS/ROD must meet legal sufficiency requirements. The proposed language is: \u201cA combined final EIS/ROD will be reviewed for legal sufficiency prior to issuance by the Administration.\u201d Legal sufficiency involves ensuring adequate documentation exists to support the final agency action/decision, as well as determining whether the combined final EIS/ROD complies with minimum legal standards of NEPA and other procedural or substantive requirements. It is not new to the Agencies' environmental review process; it is included in this section for consistency with \u00a7\u2009771.125.\nProposed paragraph (a)(5) would address Administration approval of the combined final EIS/ROD: \u201cThe Administration shall indicate approval of the combined final EIS/ROD by signing the document. The provision on Administration's Headquarters prior concurrence in \u00a7\u2009771.125(c) applies to the combined final EIS/ROD.\u201d\nProposed paragraph (b) would make clear that the Federal Register public availability notice does not establish a comment period for the combined final EIS/ROD: \u201cThe Federal Register public availability notice published by EPA (40 CFR 1506.10) does not establish a waiting period or a period of time for the return of comments on a combined final EIS/ROD.\u201d\nThe Agencies propose deleting paragraph (d) (\u201cThe signature of the FTA approving official on the cover sheet also indicates compliance with 49 U.S.C. 5324(b) and fulfillment of the grant application requirements of 49 U.S.C. 5323(b).\u201d) because sections 20016 and 20017 of MAP-21 repealed the environmental review process-related requirements previously found through those statutory references for FTA.\nDue to the proposed deletion of paragraph (d), existing paragraphs (e), (f), and (g) would be re-lettered as paragraphs (d), (e), and (f), respectively.\nThe Agencies propose to modify paragraph (e), previously paragraph (f), by replacing the word \u201cprinting\u201d with the word \u201cpublication.\u201d This change would address the fact that the final EIS may be produced by electronic means and that paper hardcopies are not required except as necessary to meet State requirements.\nThe Agencies propose to add a new paragraph (g) that states: \u201cThe final EIS may take the form of an errata sheet pursuant to 40 CFR 1503.4(c).\u201d As noted above, this change would make the Agencies' regulations consistent with MAP-21 Section 1319(a), which provides for the preparation of a final EIS by attaching errata sheets to the draft EIS if certain conditions are met. The use of errata sheets is appropriate when comments received on a draft EIS are minor, and the lead agency's responses to those comments are limited to factual corrections or explanations of why the comments do not warrant further response.\nSection 771.127\u2003Record of Decision\nThe Agencies propose to modify paragraph (a) to reflect that the minimum 30-day period between final EIS and ROD is incompatible with the publication of a combined final EIS/ROD, as required by MAP-21 Section 1319. The modification would be made by adding the phrase, \u201cWhen the final EIS is not combined with the ROD,\u201d to the beginning of the first sentence in this paragraph. This change would make clear that the 30-day waiting period between final EIS and ROD applies only for those instances where the final EIS is not combined with the ROD. Under the scenario where the Administration signs a combined final EIS/ROD document, there is no waiting period. In addition, the Agencies propose to remove the last sentence from paragraph (a) (\u201cUntil any required ROD has been signed, no further approvals may be given except for administrative activities taken to secure further project funding and other activities consistent with 40 CFR 1506.1\u201d) because it is duplicative of \u00a7\u2009771.113 and unnecessary to repeat in this section. The changes presented to this paragraph are, therefore, non-substantive.\nIn paragraph (b), the Agencies propose to modify the language to reflect the possibility of an amended ROD, as well as to include a reference to the combined final EIS/ROD process. In the discussion of a revised ROD, the Agencies would add the text \u201cor amended\u201d before the term \u201cROD\u201d in both sentences to reflect FTA current practice. Examples of when the Agencies would amend a ROD include where (1) the Administration previously signed a combined final EIS/ROD or ROD and subsequently decides to approve an alternative that was not identified as the preferred alternative but was fully evaluated in the final EIS, or (2) the Administration proposes to make substantial changes to the mitigation measures or findings discussed in the combined final EIS/ROD or ROD. To provide for the combined final EIS/ROD process requirements, the Agencies propose inserting \u201c\u00a7\u2009771.124(a) or\u201d prior to the existing reference to \u00a7\u2009771.125(c) at the end of the first sentence, and removing \u201cpursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.125(g)\u201d from the second sentence.\nThe Agencies propose to add introductory text before paragraph (a) to provide the purpose and timing of re-evaluations. The introductory text would read: \u201cThe Administration shall determine, prior to granting any new approval related to an action or amending any previously approved aspect of an action, including mitigation commitments, whether an approved environmental document remains valid as described below. . . .\u201d This change would clarify the Administration's responsibility regarding re-evaluations and provide a link to existing paragraphs (a) through (c).\nIn paragraph (a), the Agencies propose a non-substantive change that changes passive voice to active voice. The Agencies would add the text \u201cThe applicant shall prepare a\u201d to the beginning of this paragraph and remove \u201cshall be prepared by the applicant\u201d from later in the sentence. This change clearly states that the applicant is responsible for preparing the written evaluation of the draft EIS.\nIn paragraph (b), the Agencies propose similar modifying language to clarify that the applicant is responsible for preparing a written evaluation of the final EIS before further Administration approvals may be granted. The first sentence would be modified to read: \u201cThe applicant shall prepare a written evaluation of the final EIS before the Administration may grant further approvals if major. . . .\u201d This change clarifies the actions of the applicant and Administration and is consistent with current practice.\nThe Agencies propose revising the first sentence in paragraph (c) to include combined final EIS/ROD documents in the list of environmental documents that the Administration issues and to clearly state the Administration's role. Paragraph (c) would be revised to read: \u201cAfter the Administration issues a combined final EIS/ROD, ROD, FONSI, or CE designation, the applicant. . . .\u201d The original language noted \u201capproval\u201d of the ROD, FONSI, or CE designation, but did not state who approved the document nor did the use of \u201capproval\u201d accurately reflect the Administration's role. The proposed change would clarify that it is the Administration that issues environmental decision documents, which is consistent with other proposals in this rule.\nSection 771.130\u2003Supplemental Environmental Impact Statements\nThe Agencies propose to delete paragraph (e) from this section (\u201cA supplemental draft EIS may be necessary for major new fixed guideway capital projects proposed for FTA funding if there is a substantial change in the level of detail on project impacts during project planning and development. The supplement will address site-specific impacts and refined cost estimates that have been developed since the original draft EIS.\u201d). The FTA proposes deleting this paragraph because it is not necessary to refer specifically to major new fixed guideway capital projects; a supplemental document may be needed for a variety of public transportation projects.\nThe Agencies propose to modify existing paragraph (f) (proposed paragraph (e) if the deletion noted above is finalized) to add EAs as a supplemental document type that may be used to analyze issues of limited scope; the addition of EAs to this paragraph is consistent with \u00a7\u2009771.130(c). The modification would be made by revising the first sentence: \u201cIn some cases, an EA or supplemental EIS may be required . . .\u201d In addition, the Agencies would replace the term \u201cEIS\u201d with \u201cdocument\u201d in the last sentence of the paragraph and the last sentence of subparagraph (e)(3) to account for the possibility of completing an EA for the supplemental analyses.\nThe Agencies propose to add an introductory sentence to the current paragraph in this section to address emergency and disaster-related CEs. This change would reflect the recently updated Agencies' CEs in \u00a7\u00a7\u2009771.117 and 771.118 for FHWA and FTA, respectively. The introductory sentence would read: \u201cResponses to some emergencies and disasters are categorical exclusions under \u00a7\u2009771.117 for FHWA or \u00a7\u2009771.118 for FTA.\u201d In the second sentence, the Agencies would add \u201cOtherwise,\u201d to the beginning of the sentence to account for those actions that do not qualify for a CE and must follow current emergency action procedures.\nSection 771.133\u2003Compliance With Other Requirements\nThe Agencies are proposing to modify the current paragraph by reorganizing the section and adding or modifying text. The existing paragraph would be listed as paragraph (a) and, in accordance with Section 1319 of MAP-21, paragraph (a) would be modified to include \u201ccombined final EIS/ROD\u201d as a document type that should comply with requirements of all applicable environmental laws, Executive orders, and other related requirements. In the last sentence of paragraph (a), the Agencies propose changing the reference to \u201cthe Administration\u201d to \u201cthe FHWA\u201d because the report requirements referenced in the paragraph and found in 23 U.S.C. 128 do not apply to FTA. This is a minor change that accurately reflects legal requirements and current practice.\nThe Agencies propose to add a new paragraph (b) to provide for the possibility that applicants may want to meet compliance requirements with other laws, regulations or Executive orders through programmatic approaches, consistent with MAP-21 Section 1305(a) (23 U.S.C. 139(b)). This new paragraph would read, \u201cIn consultation with the Administration and subject to Administration approval, an applicant may develop a programmatic approach for compliance with the requirements of any law, regulation, or Executive order applicable to the project development process.\u201d\nSection 771.137\u2003International Actions\nSection 771.139\u2003Limitations on Actions\nThe Agencies propose to modify this section by replacing the 180-day statute of limitations for claims arising under Federal law seeking judicial review of any final decisions by the Administration or by other Federal agencies on a transportation project announced in the Federal Register with a 150-day time period. The Agencies would replace the text \u201c180\u201d with \u201c150\u201d. This modification would make the paragraph consistent with MAP-21 Section 1308 (23 U.S.C. 139(l)).\nSection 4(f) Regulation Changes (Part 774) Section 774.11\u2003Applicability\nIn paragraph (i), the Agencies propose to revise the examples of documentation that would be adequate to show that a transportation facility and a Section 4(f) property were concurrently or jointly planned or developed: \u201c(1) Formal reservation of a property for a future transportation use can be demonstrated by a government document created prior to or contemporaneously with the establishment of the park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge. Examples of an adequate document to formally reserve a future transportation use include: (A) A government map that depicts a transportation facility on the property; (B) a land use or zoning plan depicting a transportation facility on the property; or (C) a fully executed real estate instrument that references a future transportation facility on the property. (2) Concurrent or joint planning or development can be demonstrated by a government document created after, contemporaneously with, or prior to the establishment of the Section 4(f) property. Examples of an adequate document to demonstrate concurrent or joint planning or development include: (A) A government document that describes or depicts the designation or donation of the property for both the potential transportation facility and the Section 4(f) property; or (B) a government agency map, memorandum, planning document, report, or correspondence that describes or depicts action taken with respect to the property by two or more governmental agencies with jurisdiction for the potential transportation facility and the Section 4(f) property, in consultation with each other.\u201d This would expand the current text that provides more limited direction to applicants as to what the Agencies will accept as adequate documentation of concurrent or joint planning or development of a transportation facility and a park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge.\nIn paragraph (e), the Agencies propose to revise the exception to read: \u201cProjects for the Federal lands transportation facilities described in 23 U.S.C. 101(a)(8).\u201d This replaces: \u201cPark road or parkway projects under 23 U.S.C. 204.\u201d This change is necessary due to the restructuring of the Federal Lands Highway Program by MAP-21, and more specifically, to implement Section 1119(c)(2) of MAP-21, which revised and broadened the Section 4(f) exception for park road and parkway projects to apply to Federal lands transportation facilities. Federal lands transportation facilities are public highways, roads, bridges, trails, and transit systems that are located on, adjacent to, or provide access to Federal lands for which title and maintenance responsibility is vested in the Federal Government, and that appear on the national Federal lands transportation facility inventory described in 23 U.S.C. 203(c).\nIn paragraph (g), the Agencies propose to revise the exception to read: \u201cTransportation enhancement activities, transportation alternatives projects, and mitigation activities . . .\u201d This replaces: \u201cTransportation enhancement projects and mitigation activities . . .\u201d This change is necessary because Section 1122 of MAP-21 replaced the former \u201ctransportation enhancement projects program\u201d with a new \u201ctransportation alternatives projects program.\u201d This exception would continue to be limited to situations where the official(s) with jurisdiction over the Section 4(f) resource agrees that \u201cthe use of the Section 4(f) property is solely for the purpose of preserving or enhancing an activity, feature, or attribute that qualifies the property for Section 4(f) protection.\u201d\nThe Agencies derive explicit authority for this rulemaking action from 49 U.S.C. 322(a), which provides authority to \u201c[a]n officer of the Department of Transportation [to] prescribe regulations to carry out the duties and powers of the officer.\u201d The Secretary delegated this authority to the Agencies in 49 CFR 1.81(a)(3), which provides that the authority to prescribe regulations contained in 49 U.S.C. 322(a) is delegated to each Administrator \u201cwith respect to statutory provisions for which authority is delegated by other sections in [49 CFR part 1].\u201d The Secretary has delegated authority to the Agencies to implement NEPA and Section 4(f), the statutes implemented by this rule, in 49 CFR 1.81(a)(4) and (5). Moreover, the CEQ regulations that implement NEPA provide at 40 CFR 1507.3 that agencies shall continue to review their policies and NEPA implementing procedures and revise them as necessary to ensure full compliance with the purposes and provisions of NEPA.\nThe agencies will consider all comments received before the close of business on the comment closing date indicated above and will be available for examination in the docket (FHWA-2015-0011) at regulations.gov. Comments received after the comment closing date will be filed in the docket and the Agencies will consider them to the extent practicable. In addition to late comments, the Agencies will also continue to file relevant information in the docket as it becomes available after the comment period closing date, and interested persons should continue to examine the docket for new material. The Agencies may publish a final rule at any time after close of the comment period.\nExecutive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). The Agencies have determined preliminarily that this action would not be a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 nor would it be significant within the meaning of U.S. Department of Transportation regulatory policies and procedures (44 FR 11032, February 26, 1979). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. The Agencies anticipate that the economic impact of this rulemaking would be minimal. The Agencies do not have specific data to assess the monetary value of the benefits from the proposed changes because such data does not exist and would be difficult to develop.\nThis NPRM proposes to modify 23 CFR parts 771 and 774 in order to be consistent with changes introduced by MAP-21 as well as to provide clarification and make the regulation more consistent with the Agencies' practices. These proposed changes would not adversely affect, in any material way, any sector of the economy. In addition, these changes would not interfere with any action taken or planned by another agency and would not materially alter the budgetary impact of any entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs. Consequently, a full regulatory evaluation is not required. The Agencies anticipate that the changes in this NPRM would enable projects to move more expeditiously through the Federal review process and would reduce the preparation of extraneous environmental documentation and analysis not needed for compliance with NEPA or Section 4(f) while still ensuring that projects are built in an environmentally responsible manner. The Agencies request comment, including data and information on the experiences of project sponsors, on the likely effects of the changes being proposed.\nIn compliance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act (Pub. L. 96-354, 5 U.S.C. 601-612), the Agencies have evaluated the effects of this proposed rule on small entities and anticipate that this action would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. \u201cSmall entities\u201d include small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations under 50,000. The proposed revisions are expected to expedite environmental review and thus are anticipated to be less than any current impact on small business entities.\nThe Agencies have analyzed this action under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. The Agencies have determined that this action is not a significant energy action under that order because it is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy. Therefore, a Statement of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211 is not required.\nExecutive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations, and DOT Order 5610.2(a), 91 FR 27534 (May 10, 2012) (available online at www.fhwa.dot.gov/environment/environmental_justice/ej_at_dot/order_56102a/index.cfm), require DOT agencies to achieve environmental justice (EJ) as part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects, including interrelated social and economic effects, of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income populations in the United States. The DOT Order requires DOT agencies to address compliance with the Executive order and the DOT Order in all rulemaking activities. In addition, both Agencies have issued additional documents relating to administration of the Executive order and the DOT Order. On June 14, 2012, FHWA issued an update to its EJ order, FHWA Order 6640.23A, FHWA Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations (available online at www.fhwa.dot.gov/legsregs/directives/orders/664023a.cfm). The FTA also issued an update to its EJ policy, FTA Policy Guidance for Federal Transit Recipients, 77 FR 42077 (July 17, 2012) (available online at http://www.fta.dot.gov/legislation_law/12349_14740.html).\nThe Agencies have evaluated this proposed rule under the Executive order, the DOT Order, the FHWA Order, and the FTA Circular. The Agencies have determined that the proposed changes to 23 CFR part 771, if finalized as proposed, would not cause disproportionately high and adverse human health and environmental effects on minority or low income populations.\nA RIN is assigned to each regulatory action listed in the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations. The Regulatory Information Service Center publishes the Unified Agenda in April and October of each year. The RIN contained in the heading of this document can be used to cross reference this action with the Unified Agenda.\nEnvironmental review process, Environmental protection, Grant programs\u2014transportation, Highways and roads, Historic preservation, Mitigation plans, Programmatic approaches, Public lands, Recreation areas, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.\nEnvironmental protection, Grant programs-transportation, Highways and roads, Historic preservation, Mass Transportation, Public Lands, Recreation areas, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Wildlife refuges.\nEnvironmental impact statements, Environmental review process, Grant programs\u2014transportation, Mitigation plans, Programmatic approaches, Public transportation, Recreation areas, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Transit.\nIssued in Washington, DC, on November 10, 2015, under authority delegated in 49 CFR 1.85 and 1.91. Gregory G. Nadeau, Administrator, Federal Highway Administration. Therese W. McMillan, Acting Administrator, Federal Transit Administration.\nIn consideration of the foregoing, the Agencies propose to amend title 23, Code of Federal Regulations parts 771 and 774, and title 49, Code of Federal Regulations part 622, as follows:\nTITLE 23\u2014Highways PART 771\u2014ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND RELATED PROCEDURES 1. Revise authority citation for part 771 to read as follows: Authority:\n42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.; 23 U.S.C. 106, 109, 128, 138, 139, 315, 325, 326, and 327; 49 U.S.C. 303; 40 CFR parts 1500-1508; 49 CFR 1.81, 1.85, and 1.91; Pub. L. 109-59, 119 Stat. 1144, Sections 6002 and 6010; Pub. L. 112-141, 126 Stat. 405, Sections 1315, 1316, 1317, 1318, and 1319.\nThis regulation prescribes the policies and procedures of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 as amended (NEPA), and supplements the NEPA regulation of the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), 40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508 (CEQ regulation). Together these regulations set forth all FHWA, FTA and Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements under NEPA for the processing of highway and public transportation projects. This regulation also sets forth procedures to comply with 23 U.S.C. 109(h), 128, 138, 139, 325, 326, and 327; 49 U.S.C. 303 and 5323(q); and Public Law 112-141, 126 Stat. 405, sections 1301 and 1319.\n3. Revise \u00a7\u2009771.105 and its footnote to read as follows:\nIt is the policy of the Administration that:\n(a) To the fullest extent possible, all environmental investigations, reviews, and consultations be coordinated as a single process, and compliance with all applicable environmental requirements be reflected in the environmental review document required by this regulation.1\n1\u2009FHWA and FTA have supplementary guidance on environmental documents and procedures for their programs available on the Internet at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov and http://www.fta.dot.gov, or in hardcopy by request.\n(b) Programmatic approaches be developed for compliance with environmental requirements, coordination among agencies and/or the public, or to otherwise enhance and accelerate project development.\n(c) Alternative courses of action be evaluated and decisions be made in the best overall public interest based upon a balanced consideration of the need for safe and efficient transportation; of the social, economic, and environmental impacts of the proposed transportation improvement; and of national, State, and local environmental protection goals.\n(d) Public involvement and a systematic interdisciplinary approach be essential parts of the development process for proposed actions.\n(e) Measures necessary to mitigate adverse impacts be incorporated into the action. Measures necessary to mitigate adverse impacts are eligible for Federal funding when the Administration determines that:\n(1) The impacts for which the mitigation is proposed actually result from the Administration action; and\n(2) The proposed mitigation represents a reasonable public expenditure after considering the impacts of the action and the benefits fo the proposed mitigation measures. In making this determination, the Administration will consider, among other factors, the extent to which the proposed measures would assist in complying with a Federal statute, Executive order, or Administration regulation or policy.\n(f) Costs incurred by the applicant for the preparation of environmental documents requested by the Administration be eligible for Federal assistance.\n(g) No person, because of handicap, age, race, color, sex, or national origin, be excluded from participating in, or denied benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any Administration program or procedural activity required by or developed pursuant to this regulation.\nThe definitions contained in the CEQ regulation and in titles 23 and 49 of the United States Code are applicable. In addition, the following definitions apply.\nAction. A highway or transit project proposed for FHWA or FTA funding. It also includes activities such as joint and multiple use permits, changes in access control, etc., which may or may not involve a commitment of Federal funds.\nAdministration. The FHWA or FTA, whichever is the designated Federal lead agency for the proposed action. A reference herein to the Administration means the FHWA, or FTA, or a State when the State is functioning as the FHWA or FTA in carrying out responsibilities delegated or assigned to the State in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 325, 326, or 327, or other applicable law. A reference herein to the FHWA or FTA means the State when the State is functioning as the FHWA or FTA respectively in carrying out responsibilities delegated or assigned to the State in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 325, 326, or 327, or other applicable law. Nothing in this definition alters the scope of any delegation or assignment made by FHWA or FTA.\nAdministration action. FHWA or FTA approval of the applicant's request for Federal funds for construction. It also includes approval of activities such as joint and multiple use permits, changes in access control, etc., which may or may not involve a commitment of Federal funds.\nApplicant. Any Federal, State, local, or federally-recognized Indian tribal governmental unit that requests funding approval or other action by the Administration and that the Administration works with to conduct environmental studies and prepare environmental review documents. When another Federal agency, or the Administration itself, is implementing the action, then the lead agencies (as defined in this section) may assume the responsibilities of the applicant in this part. If there is no applicant then the Federal lead agency will assume the responsibilities of the applicant in this part.\nEnvironmental studies. The investigations of potential environmental impacts to determine the environmental process to be followed and to assist in the preparation of the environmental document.\nLead agencies. The Administration and any other agency designated to serve as a joint lead agency with the Administration under 23 U.S.C. 139(c)(3) or under the CEQ regulation.\nParticipating agency. A Federal, State, local, or federally-recognized Indian tribal governmental unit that may have an interest in the proposed project and has accepted an invitation to be a participating agency, or, in the case of a Federal agency, has not declined the invitation in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 139(d)(3).\nProgrammatic approaches. An approach that reduces the need for project-by-project reviews, eliminates repetitive discussion of the same issue, or focuses on the actual issues ripe for analyses at each level of review, while maintaining appropriate consideration for the environment.\nProject sponsor. The Federal, State, local, or federally-recognized Indian tribal governmental unit, or other entity, including any private or public-private entity that seeks Federal funding or an Administration action for a project. The project sponsor, if not the applicant, may conduct some of the activities on behalf of the applicant.\nSection 4(f). Refers to 49 U.S.C. 303 and 23 U.S.C. 138 (as implemented by 23 CFR part 774).\n5. Amend \u00a7\u2009771.109 by revising paragraph (b) and adding paragraph (c)(7) to read as follows:\n(b)(1) The applicant, in cooperation with the Administration, is responsible for implementing those mitigation measures stated as commitments in the environmental documents prepared pursuant to this regulation unless the Administration approves of their deletion or modification in writing. The FHWA will assure that this is accomplished as a part of its stewardship and oversight responsibilities. The FTA will assure implementation of committed mitigation measures through incorporation by reference in the grant agreement, followed by reviews of designs and construction inspections.\n(2) When entering into Federal-aid project agreements pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 106, FHWA shall ensure that the State highway agency constructs the project in accordance with and incorporates all committed environmental impact mitigation measures listed in approved environmental review documents.\n(7) A participating agency is responsible for providing input, as appropriate, during the times specified in the coordination plan under 23 U.S.C. 139(g), and providing comments and concurrence on a schedule if included within the coordination plan.\n(a)(1) Early coordination with appropriate agencies and the public aids in determining the type of environmental review document an action requires, the scope of the document, the level of analysis, and related environmental requirements. These activities contribute to reducing or eliminating delay, duplicative processes, and conflict by incorporating planning outcomes that have been reviewed by agencies and Indian tribal partners in project development.\n(2)(i) The information and results produced by, or in support of, the transportation planning process may be incorporated into environmental review documents in accordance with 40 CFR parts 1500 through 1508, 23 CFR part 450, or 23 U.S.C. 168.\n(ii) The planning process described in paragraph (a)(2)(i) may include mitigation actions consistent with a programmatic mitigation plan developed pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 169 or from a programmatic mitigation plan developed outside of that framework.\n(3) Applicants intending to apply for funds should notify the Administration at the time that a project concept is identified. When requested, the Administration will advise the applicant, insofar as possible, of the probable class of action (see 23 CFR 771.115) and related environmental laws and requirements and of the need for specific studies and findings that would normally be developed during the environmental review process.\n(b) The Administration will identify the probable class of action as soon as sufficient information is available to identify the probable impacts of the action.\n(c) When both the FHWA and FTA are involved in the development of an action, or when the FHWA or FTA acts as a joint lead agency with another Federal agency, a mutually acceptable process will be established on a case-by-case basis.\n(d) During the early coordination process, the lead agencies may request other agencies having an interest in the action to participate, and must invite such agencies if the action is subject to the project development procedures in 23 U.S.C. 139. Agencies with special expertise may be invited to become cooperating agencies. Agencies with jurisdiction by law must be requested to become cooperating agencies.\n(e) Other States and Federal land management entities that may be significantly affected by the action or by any of the alternatives shall be notified early and their views solicited by the applicant in cooperation with the Administration. The Administration will provide direction to the applicant on how to approach any significant unresolved issues as early as possible during the environmental review process.\n(f) Any action evaluated through a categorical exclusion (CE), environmental assessment (EA), or environmental impact statement (EIS) shall:\n(1) Connect logical termini and be of sufficient length to address environmental matters on a broad scope;\n(2) Have independent utility or independent significance, i.e., be usable and be a reasonable expenditure even if no additional transportation improvements in the area are made; and\n(3) Not restrict consideration of alternatives for other reasonably foreseeable transportation improvements.\n(g) For major transportation actions, the tiering of EISs as discussed in the CEQ regulation (40 CFR 1502.20) may be appropriate. The first tier EIS would focus on broad issues such as general location, mode choice, and areawide air quality and land use implications of the major alternatives. The second tier would address site-specific details on project impacts, costs, and mitigation measures.\n(h) For the Federal-aid highway program:\n(1) Each State must have procedures approved by the FHWA to carry out a public involvement/public hearing program pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 128 and 139 and CEQ regulation.\n(2) State public involvement/public hearing procedures must provide for:\n(i) Coordination of public involvement activities and public hearings with the entire NEPA process.\n(ii) Early and continuing opportunities during project development for the public to be involved in the identification of social, economic, and environmental impacts, as well as impacts associated with relocation of individuals, groups, or institutions.\n(iii) One or more public hearings or the opportunity for hearing(s) to be held by the State highway agency at a convenient time and place for any Federal-aid project which requires significant amounts of right-of-way, substantially changes the layout or functions of connecting roadways or of the facility being improved, has a substantial adverse impact on abutting property, otherwise has a significant social, economic, environmental or other effect, or for which the FHWA determines that a public hearing is in the public interest.\n(iv) Reasonable notice to the public of either a public hearing or the opportunity for a public hearing. Such notice will indicate the availability of explanatory information. The notice shall also provide information required to comply with public involvement requirements of other laws, Executive orders, and regulations.\n(v) Explanation at the public hearing of the following information, as appropriate:\n(A) The project's purpose, need, and consistency with the goals and objectives of any local urban planning,\n(B) The project's alternatives, and major design features,\n(C) The social, economic, environmental, and other impacts of the project,\n(D) The relocation assistance program and the right-of-way acquisition process.\n(E) The State highway agency's procedures for receiving both oral and written statements from the public.\n(vi) Submission to the FHWA of a transcript of each public hearing and a certification that a required hearing or hearing opportunity was offered. The transcript will be accompanied by copies of all written statements from the public, both submitted at the public hearing or during an announced period after the public hearing.\n(vii) An opportunity for public involvement in defining the purpose and need and the range of alternatives, for any action subject to the project development procedures in 23 U.S.C. 139.\n(viii) Public notice and an opportunity for public review and comment on a Section 4(f) de minimis impact finding, in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 303(d).\n(i) Applicants for capital assistance in the FTA program:\n(1) Achieve public participation on proposed actions through activities that engage the public, including public hearings, town meetings, and charrettes, and seeking input from the public through scoping for the environmental review process. Project milestones may be announced to the public using electronic or paper media (e.g., newsletters, note cards, or emails) pursuant to 40 CFR 1506.6. For actions requiring EISs, an early opportunity for public involvement in defining the purpose and need for action and the range of alternatives must be provided, and a public hearing will be held during the circulation period of the draft EIS.\n(2) May participate in early scoping as long as enough project information is known so the public and other agencies can participate effectively. Early scoping constitutes initiation of NEPA scoping while local planning efforts to aid in establishing the purpose and need and in evaluating alternatives and impacts are underway. Notice of early scoping must be made to the public and other agencies. If early scoping is the start of the NEPA process, the early scoping notice must include language to that effect. After development of the proposed action at the conclusion of early scoping, FTA will publish the Notice of Intent if it is determined at that time that the proposed action requires an EIS. The Notice of Intent will establish a 30-day period for comments on the purpose and need and the alternatives.\n(3) Are encouraged to post and distribute materials related to the environmental review process, including but not limited to, NEPA documents (e.g., EAs and EISs), environmental studies (e.g., technical reports), public meeting announcements, and meeting minutes, through publicly-accessible electronic means, including project Web sites. Applicants are encouraged to keep these materials available to the public electronically until the project is constructed and open for operations.\n(4) Are encouraged to post all findings of no significant impact (FONSI), combined final environmental impact statement (FEIS)/records of decision (ROD), and RODs on a project Web site until the project is constructed and open for operation.\n(j) Information on the FTA environmental process may be obtained from: Director, Office of Environmental Programs, Federal Transit Administration, Washington, DC 20590, or www.fta.dot.gov. Information on the FHWA environmental process may be obtained from: Director, Office of Project Development and Environmental Review, Federal Highway Administration, Washington, DC 20590, or www.fhwa.dot.gov.\n(a) The lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant and project sponsor as appropriate, will perform the work necessary to complete the environmental review process. This work includes drafting environmental documents and completing studies, related engineering studies, agency coordination, and public involvement. Except as otherwise provided in law or in paragraph (d) of this section, final design activities, property acquisition, purchase of construction materials or rolling stock, or project construction shall not proceed until the following have been completed:\n(1)(i) The action has been classified as a CE;\n(ii) The Administration has issued a FONSI; or\n(iii) The Administration has issued a combined final EIS/ROD or a final EIS and ROD;\n(2) For actions proposed for FHWA funding, the Administration has received and accepted the certifications and any required public hearing transcripts required by 23 U.S.C. 128;\n(3) For activities proposed for FHWA funding, the programming requirements of 23 CFR part 450, subpart B, and 23 CFR part 630, subpart A, have been met.\n(b) For activities proposed for FHWA action, completion of the requirements set forth in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section is considered acceptance of the general project location and concepts described in the environmental review documents unless otherwise specified by the approving official.\n(c) Letters of Intent issued under the authority of 49 U.S.C. 5309(g) are used by FTA to indicate an intention to obligate future funds for multi-year capital transit projects. Letters of Intent will not be issued by FTA until the NEPA process is completed.\n(d) The prohibition in paragraph (a)(1) of this section is limited by the following exceptions:\n(1) Early acquisition, hardship and protective acquisitions of real property in accordance with 23 CFR part 710, subpart E for FHWA. Exceptions for the acquisitions of real property are addressed in paragraphs (c)(6) and (d)(3) of \u00a7\u2009771.118 for FTA.\n(2) The early acquisition of right-of-way for future transit use in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5323(q) and FTA guidance.\n(3) A limited exception for rolling stock is provided in 49 U.S.C. 5309(l)(6).\nThere are three classes of actions which prescribe the level of documentation required in the NEPA process. A programmatic approach may be used for any class of action.\n(a) EIS (Class I). Actions that significantly affect the environment require an EIS (40 CFR 1508.27). The following are examples of actions that normally required an EIS:\n(1) A new controlled access freeway.\n(2) A highway project of four or more lanes on a new location.\n(3) Construction or extension of a fixed transit facility (e.g., rapid rail, light rail, commuter rail, bus rapid transit) that will not be located primarily within an existing transportation right-of-way.\n(4) For FHWA actions, new construction or extension of a separate roadway for buses or high occupancy vehicles not located within an existing highway facility.\n(5) For FTA actions, new construction or extension of a separate roadway for buses not located primarily within an existing transportation right-of-way.\n(b) CE (Class II). Actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant environmental effect are excluded from the requirement to prepare an EA or EIS. A specific list of CEs normally not requiring NEPA documentation is set forth in \u00a7\u2009771.117(c) for FHWA actions or pursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.118(c) for FTA actions. When appropriately documented, additional projects may also qualify as CEs pursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.117(d) for FHWA actions or pursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.118(d) for FTA actions.\n(c) EA (Class III). Actions in which the Administration has not clearly established the significance of the environmental impact. All actions that are not Class I or II are Class III. All actions in this class require the preparation of an EA to determine the appropriate environmental document required.\n(a)(i) The applicant shall prepare an EA in consultation with the Administration for each action that is not a CE and does not clearly require the preparation of an EIS, or where the Administration believes an EA would assist in determining the need for an EIS.\n(ii) For FTA actions: When FTA or the applicant, as joint lead agency, select a contractor to prepare the EA, then the contractor shall execute an FTA conflict of interest disclosure statement. The statement must be maintained in the FTA Regional Office and with the applicant. The contractor's scope of work for the preparation of the EA will not be finalized until the early coordination activities or scoping process found in paragraph (b) of this section is completed (including FTA approval, in consultation with the applicant, of the scope of the EA content).\n(b) For actions that require an EA, the applicant, in consultation with the Administration, shall, at the earliest appropriate time, begin consultation with interested agencies and others to advise them of the scope of the project and to achieve the following objectives: Determine which aspects of the proposed action have potential for social, economic, or environmental impact; identify alternatives and measures which might mitigate adverse environmental impacts; and identify other environmental review and consultation requirements which should be performed concurrently with the EA. The applicant shall accomplish this through early coordination activities or through a scoping process. The applicant shall summarize the public involvement process and include the results of agency coordination in the EA.\n(c) The Administration must approve the EA before it is made available to the public as an Administration document.\n(d) The applicant does not need to circulate the EA for comment but the document must be made available for public inspection at the applicant's office and at the appropriate Administration field offices in accordance with paragraphs (e) and (f) of this section. The applicant shall send the notice of availability of the EA, which briefly describes the action and its impacts, to the affected units of Federal, State and local government. The applicant shall also send notice to the State intergovernmental review contacts established under Executive Order 12372.\n(e) When a public hearing is held as part of the environmental review process for an action, the EA shall be available at the public hearing and for a minimum of 15 days in advance of the public hearing. The applicant shall publish a notice of the public hearing in local newspapers that announces the availability of the EA and where it may be obtained or reviewed. Any comments must be submitted in writing to the applicant or the Administration during the 30-day availability period of the EA unless the Administration determines, for good cause, that a different period is warranted. Public hearing requirements are as described in \u00a7\u2009771.111.\n(f) When a public hearing is not held, the applicant shall place a notice in a newspaper(s) similar to a public hearing notice and at a similar stage of development of the action, advising the public of the availability of the EA and where information concerning the action may be obtained. The notice shall invite comments from all interested parties. Any comments must be submitted in writing to the applicant or the Administration during the 30-day availability period of the EA unless the Administration determines, for good cause, that a different period is warranted.\n(g) If no significant impacts are identified, the applicant shall furnish the Administration a copy of the revised EA, as appropriate; the public hearing transcript, where applicable; copies of any comments received and responses thereto; and recommend a FONSI. The EA should also document compliance, to the extent possible, with all applicable environmental laws and Executive orders, or provide reasonable assurance that their requirements can be met.\n(h) When the FHWA expects to issue a FONSI for an action described in \u00a7\u2009771.115(a), copies of the EA shall be made available for public review (including the affected units of government) for a minimum of 30 days before the Administration makes its final decision (See 40 CFR 1501.4(e)(2).) This public availability shall be announced by a notice similar to a public hearing notice.\n(i) If, at any point in the EA process, the Administration determines that the action is likely to have a significant impact on the environment, the preparation of an EIS will be required.\n(j) If the Administration decides to apply 23 U.S.C. 139 to an action involving an EA, then the EA shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of that statute.\n(a) The Administration will review the EA, comments submitted on the EA (in writing or at public hearings/meetings), and other supporting documentation, as appropriate. If the Administration agrees with the applicant's recommendations pursuant to \u00a7\u2009771.119(g), it will make a separate written FONSI incorporating by reference the EA and any other appropriate environmental documents.\n(b) After the Administration issues a FONSI, a notice of availability of the FONSI shall be sent by the applicant to the affected units of Federal, State, and local government, and the document shall be available from the applicant and the Administration upon request by the public. Notice shall also be sent to the State intergovernmental review contacts established under Executive Order 12372.\n(c) If another Federal agency has issued a FONSI on an action which includes an element proposed for Administration funding or approval, the Administration will evaluate the other agency's EA/FONSI. If the Administration determines that this element of the project and its environmental impacts have been adequately identified and assessed and concurs in the decision to issue a FONSI, the Administration will issue its own FONSI incorporating the other agency's EA/FONSI. If environmental issues have not been adequately identified and assessed, the Administration will require appropriate environmental studies.\n(a) A draft EIS shall be prepared when the Administration determines that the action is likely to cause significant impacts on the environment. When the applicant, after consultation with any project sponsor that is not the applicant, has notified the Administration in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 139(e) and the decision has been made by the Administration to prepare an EIS, the Administration will issue a Notice of Intent (40 CFR 1508.22) for publication in the Federal Register. Applicants are encouraged to announce the intent to prepare an EIS by appropriate means at the local level.\n(b) After publication of the Notice of Intent, the lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant (if not a lead agency), will begin a scoping process that may take into account any planning work already accomplished, in accordance with 23 CFR 450.212, 450.318, or any applicable provisions of the CEQ regulations at 40 CFR parts 1500-1508. The scoping process will be used to identify the purpose and need, the range of alternatives and impacts, and the significant issues to be addressed in the EIS and to achieve the other objectives of 40 CFR 1501.7. Scoping is normally achieved through public and agency involvement procedures required by \u00a7\u2009771.111. If a scoping meeting is to be held, it should be announced in the Administration's Notice of Intent and by appropriate means at the local level.\n(c) The draft EIS shall be prepared by the lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant (if not a lead agency). The draft EIS shall evaluate all reasonable alternatives to the action and discuss the reasons why other alternatives, which may have been considered, were eliminated from detailed study. The draft EIS shall also summarize the studies, reviews, consultations, and coordination required by environmental laws or Executive orders to the extent appropriate at this stage in the environmental process.\n(d) Any of the lead agencies may select a consultant to assist in the preparation of an EIS in accordance with applicable contracting procedures and with 40 CFR 1506.5(c). For FTA actions: When FTA or the applicant, as joint lead agency, select a contractor to prepare the EIS, then the contractor shall execute an FTA conflict of interest disclosure statement. The statement must be maintained in the FTA Regional Office and with the applicant. The contractor's scope of work for the preparation of the EIS will not be finalized until the early coordination activities or scoping process found in paragraph (b) of this section is completed (including FTA approval, in consultation with the applicant, of the scope of the EIS content).\n(e) The draft EIS should identify the preferred alternative to the extent practicable. If the draft EIS does not identify the preferred alternative, the Administration should provide agencies and the public with an opportunity after issuance of the draft EIS to review the impacts.\n(f) At the discretion of the lead agency, the preferred alternative (or portion thereof) for a project, after being identified, may be developed to a higher level of detail than other alternatives in order to facilitate the development of mitigation measures or compliance with requirements for permitting. The development of such higher level of detail must not prevent the lead agency from making an impartial decision as to whether to accept another alternative that is being considered in the environmental review process.\n(g) The Administration, when satisfied that the draft EIS complies with NEPA requirements, will approve the draft EIS for circulation by signing and dating the cover sheet. The cover sheet should include a notice that after circulation of the draft EIS and consideration of the comments received, the Administration will issue a combined final EIS/ROD document unless statutory criteria or practicability considerations preclude issuance of the combined document.\n(h) A lead, joint lead, or a cooperating agency shall be responsible for printing the EIS. The initial printing of the draft EIS shall be in sufficient quantity to meet requirements for copies which can reasonably be expected from agencies, organizations, and individuals. Normally, copies will be furnished free of charge. However, with Administration concurrence, the party requesting the draft EIS may be charged a fee which is not more than the actual cost of reproducing the copy or may be directed to the nearest location where the statement may be reviewed.\n(i) The applicant, on behalf of the Administration, shall circulate the draft EIS for comment. The draft EIS shall be made available to the public and transmitted to agencies for comment no later than the time the document is filed with the Environmental Protection Agency in accordance with 40 CFR 1506.9. The draft EIS shall be transmitted to:\n(1) Public officials, interest groups, and members of the public known to have an interest in the proposed action or the draft EIS;\n(2) Cooperating and participating agencies. Copies shall be provided directly to appropriate State and local agencies, and to the State intergovernmental review contacts established under Executive Order 12372; and\n(3) States and Federal land management entities that may be significantly affected by the proposed action or any of the alternatives. These copies shall be accompanied by a request that such State or entity advise the Administration in writing of any disagreement with the evaluation of impacts in the statement. The Administration will furnish the comments received to the applicant along with a written assessment of any disagreements for incorporation into the final EIS.\n(j) When a public hearing on the draft EIS is held (if required by 23 CFR 771.111), the draft EIS shall be available at the public hearing and for a minimum of 15 days in advance of the public hearing. The availability of the draft EIS shall be mentioned, and public comments requested, in any public hearing notice and at any public hearing presentation. If a public hearing on an action proposed for FHWA funding is not held, a notice shall be placed in a newspaper similar to a public hearing notice advising where the draft EIS is available for review, how copies may be obtained, and where the comments should be sent.\n(k) The Federal Register public availability notice (40 CFR 1506.10) shall establish a period of not fewer than 45 days nor more than 60 days for the return of comments on the draft EIS unless a different period is established in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 139(g)(2)(A). The notice and the draft EIS transmittal letter shall identify where comments are to be sent.\n\u00a7\u2009771.124 Final environmental impact statement/record of decision document\n(a)(1) After circulation of a draft EIS and consideration of comments received, the lead agencies, in cooperation with the applicant (if not a lead agency), shall combine the final EIS and record of decision (ROD), to the maximum extent practicable, unless:\n(i) The final EIS makes substantial changes to the proposed action that are relevant to environmental or safety concerns; or\n(ii) There are significant new circumstances or information relevant to environmental concerns and that bear on the proposed action or the impacts of the proposed action.\n(2) When the combined final EIS/ROD is a single document, it shall include the content of a final EIS presented in \u00a7\u2009771.125 and present the basis for the decision as specified in 40 CFR 1505.2, summarize any mitigation measures that will be incorporated in the project, and document any required Section 4(f) approval in accordance with part 774 of this title.\n(3) If the comments on the draft EIS are minor and confined to factual corrections or explanations that do not warrant additional agency response, an errata sheet may be attached to the draft statement, which together shall then become the combined final EIS/ROD.\n(4) A combined final EIS/ROD will be reviewed for legal sufficiency prior to issuance by the Administration.\n(5) The Administration shall indicate approval of the combined final EIS/ROD by signing the document. The provision on Administration's Headquarters prior concurrence in \u00a7\u2009771.125(c) applies to the combined final EIS/ROD.\n(b) The Federal Register public availability notice published by EPA (40 CFR 1506.10) does not establish a waiting period or a period of time for the return of comments on a combined final EIS/ROD.\n13. Amend \u00a7\u2009771.125 as follows: a. Remove paragraph (d) and redesignate paragraphs (e) through (g) as paragraphs (d) through (f); b. Revise newly redesignated paragraphs (e) through (f) and add new paragraph (g).\n(e) The initial publication of the final EIS shall be in sufficient quantity to meet the request for copies which can be reasonably expected from agencies, organizations, and individuals. Normally, copies will be furnished free of charge. However, with Administration concurrence, the party requesting the final EIS may be charged a fee which is not more than the actual cost of reproducing the copy or may be directed to the nearest location where the statement may be reviewed.\n(f) The final EIS shall be transmitted to any persons, organizations, or agencies that made substantive comments on the draft EIS or requested a copy, no later than the time the document is filed with EPA. In the case of lengthy documents, the agency may provide alternative circulation processes in accordance with 40 CFR 1502.19. The applicant shall also publish a notice of availability in local newspapers and make the final EIS available through the mechanism established pursuant to DOT Order 4600.13 which implements Executive Order 12372. When filed with EPA, the final EIS shall be available for public review at the applicant's offices and at appropriate Administration offices. A copy should also be made available for public review at institutions such as local government offices, libraries, and schools, as appropriate.\n(g) The final EIS may take the form of an errata sheet pursuant to 40 CFR 1503.4(c).\n\u00a7\u2009771.127 Record of decision.\n(a) When the final EIS is not combined with the ROD, the Administration will complete and sign a ROD no sooner than 30 days after publication of the final EIS notice in the Federal Register or 90 days after publication of a notice for the draft EIS, whichever is later. The ROD will present the basis for the decision as specified in 40 CFR 1505.2, summarize any mitigation measures that will be incorporated in the project and document any required Section 4(f) approval in accordance with part 774 of this title.\n(b) If the Administration subsequently wishes to approve an alternative which was not identified as the preferred alternative but was fully evaluated in the final EIS, or proposes to make substantial changes to the mitigation measures or findings discussed in the ROD, a revised or amended ROD shall be subject to review by those Administration offices which reviewed the final EIS under \u00a7\u2009771.124(a) or \u00a7\u2009771.125(c). To the extent practicable the approved revised or amended ROD shall be provided to all persons, organizations, and agencies that received a copy of the final EIS.\nThe Administration shall determine, prior to granting any new approval related to an action or amending any previously approved aspect of an action, including mitigation commitments, whether an approved environmental document remains valid as described below:\n(a) The applicant shall prepare a written evaluation of the draft EIS in cooperation with the Administration if an acceptable final EIS is not submitted to the Administration within three years from the date of the draft EIS circulation. The purpose of this evaluation is to determine whether or not a supplement to the draft EIS or a new draft EIS is needed.\n(b) The applicant shall prepare a written evaluation of the final EIS before the Administration may grant further approvals if major steps to advance the action (e.g., authority to undertake final design, authority to acquire a significant portion of the right-of-way, or approval of the plans, specifications and estimates) have not occurred within three years after the approval of the final EIS, final EIS supplement, or the last major Administration approval or grant.\n(c) After the Administration issues a combined final EIS/ROD, ROD, FONSI, or CE designation, the applicant shall consult with the Administration prior to requesting any major approvals or grants to establish whether or not the approved environmental document or CE designation remains valid for the requested Administration action.\n16. Amend \u00a7\u2009771.130 by removing paragraph (e) and redesignating paragraph (f) as paragraph (e), and revising it to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u2009771.130 Supplemental environmental impact statements.\n(e) In some cases, an EA or supplemental EIS may be required to address issues of limited scope, such as the extent of proposed mitigation or the evaluation of location or design variations for a limited portion of the overall project. Where this is the case, the preparation of a supplemental document shall not necessarily:\n(1) Prevent the granting of new approvals;\n(2) Require the withdrawal of previous approvals; or\n(3) Require the suspension of project activities, for any activity not directly affected by the supplement. If the changes in question are of such magnitude to require a reassessment of the entire action, or more than a limited portion of the overall action, the Administration shall suspend any activities which would have an adverse environmental impact or limit the choice of reasonable alternatives, until the supplemental document is completed.\nResponses to some emergencies and disasters are categorical exclusions under \u00a7\u2009771.117 for FHWA or \u00a7\u2009771.118 for FTA. Otherwise, requests for deviations from the procedures in this regulation because of emergency circumstances (40 CFR 1506.11) shall be referred to the Administration's headquarters for evaluation and decision after consultation with CEQ.\n\u00a7\u2009771.133 Compliance with other requirements.\n(a) The combined final EIS/ROD, final EIS or FONSI should document compliance with requirements of all applicable environmental laws, Executive orders, and other related requirements. If full compliance is not possible by the time the combined final EIS/ROD, final EIS or FONSI is prepared, the combined final EIS/ROD, final EIS or FONSI should reflect consultation with the appropriate agencies and provide reasonable assurance that the requirements will be met. Approval of the environmental document constitutes adoption of any Administration findings and determinations that are contained therein. The FHWA's approval of an environmental document constitutes its finding of compliance with the report requirements of 23 U.S.C. 128.\n(b) In consultation with the Administration and subject to Administration approval, an applicant may develop a programmatic approach for compliance with the requirements of any law, regulation, or Executive order applicable to the project development process.\n19. Revise \u00a7\u2009771.139 by replacing \u201c180\u201d with \u201c150\u201d in the second and third sentences. PART 774\u2014PARKS, RECREATION AREAS, WILDLIFE AND WATERFOWL REFUGES, AND HISTORIC SITES (SECTION 4(f)) 20. Revise the authority citation for part 774 to read as follows: Authority:\n23 U.S.C. 103(c), 109(h), 138, 325, 326, 327 and 204(h)(2); 49 U.S.C. 303; Section 6009 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (Pub. L. 109-59, Aug. 10, 2005, 119 Stat. 1144); 49 CFR 1.81 and 1.91.\n21. Revise \u00a7\u2009774.11(i) to read as follows:\n(i) When a property is formally reserved for a future transportation facility before or at the same time a park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge is established, and concurrent or joint planning or development of the transportation facility and the Section 4(f) resource occurs, then any resulting impacts of the transportation facility will not be considered a use as defined in \u00a7\u2009774.17.\n(1) Formal reservation of a property for a future transportation use can be demonstrated by a government document created prior to or contemporaneously with the establishment of the park, recreation area, or wildlife and waterfowl refuge. Examples of an adequate document to formally reserve a future transportation use include:\n(i) A government map that depicts a transportation facility on the property;\n(ii) A land use or zoning plan depicting a transportation facility on the property; or\n(iii) A fully executed real estate instrument that references a future transportation facility on the property.\n(2) Concurrent or joint planning or development can be demonstrated by a government document created after, contemporaneously with, or prior to the establishment of the Section 4(f) property. Examples of an adequate document to demonstrate concurrent or joint planning or development include:\n(i) A government document that describes or depicts the designation or donation of the property for both the potential transportation facility and the Section 4(f) property; or\n(ii) A government agency map, memorandum, planning document, report, or correspondence that describes or depicts action taken with respect to the property by two or more governmental agencies with jurisdiction for the potential transportation facility and the Section 4(f) property, in consultation with each other.\n22. Amend \u00a7\u2009774.13 by revising paragraphs (e) and (g) to read as follows:\n(e) Projects for the Federal lands transportation facilities described in 23 U.S.C. 101(a)(8).\n(g) Transportation enhancement activities, transportation alternatives projects, and mitigation activities, where:\n(1) The use of the Section 4(f) property is solely for the purpose of preserving or enhancing an activity, feature, or attribute that qualifies the property for Section 4(f) protection; and\n(2) The official(s) with jurisdiction over the Section 4(f) resource agrees in writing to paragraph (g)(1) of this section.\nPART 622\u2014ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND RELATED PROCEDURES 23.

L. 112-141, 126 Stat. 405, Sections 1315, 1316, 1317, 1318, and 1319.\n[FR Doc. 2015-29413 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-22-P DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT 24 CFR Part 5 [Docket No. FR-5863-P-01] RIN 2506-AC40 Equal Access in Accordance With an Individual's Gender Identity in Community Planning and Development Programs AGENCY:\nAs the Nation's housing agency, HUD administers programs designed to meet the goal of ensuring decent housing and a suitable living environment for all. In furtherance of this goal, in February 2012, HUD promulgated a final rule entitled \u201cEqual Access to Housing in HUD Programs Regardless of Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity\u201d (Equal Access Rule), which requires that HUD-assisted and HUD-insured housing be made available without regard to actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status, and which generally prohibits inquiries into sexual orientation or gender identity for the purpose of determining eligibility for such housing or otherwise making such housing available. HUD's Equal Access Rule provides a limited exception for inquiries about the sex of an individual to determine eligibility for housing provided or to be provided to the individual when the housing is a temporary, emergency shelter that involves the sharing of sleeping areas or bathrooms, or for inquiries made for the purpose of determining the number of bedrooms to which a household may be entitled. At that time, HUD decided not to set national policy regarding how transgender persons would be accommodated in temporary, emergency shelters that involve shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities, but instead decided to monitor and review its programs to determine if transgender individuals had greater access to temporary, emergency shelters as a result of the rule or if additional guidance or a national policy was warranted. HUD also committed to review the prohibition on inquiries contained in the Equal Access Rule. HUD has now monitored and reviewed its programs and, based on that review, is proposing this rule to require recipients and subrecipients of assistance from HUD's Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD), as well as owners, operators, and managers of shelters, buildings, and other facilities and providers of services covered by CPD's programs, to provide transgender persons and other persons who do not identify with the sex they were assigned at birth with access to programs, benefits, services, and accommodations in accordance with their gender identity. This proposed rule would also amend the definition of \u201cgender identity\u201d included in HUD's Equal Access Rule so the definition more clearly reflects the difference between actual and perceived gender identity. Finally, HUD has completed its review of the inquiries provision, and the proposed rule would eliminate the Equal Access Rule's current prohibition on inquiries related to sexual orientation or gender identity, while maintaining the prohibition against discrimination on those bases.\nPublic Inspection of Public Comments. All properly submitted comments and communications submitted to HUD will be available for public inspection and copying between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., weekdays, at the above address. Due to security measures at the HUD Headquarters building, an advance appointment to review the public comments must be scheduled by calling the Regulations Division at 202-708-3055 (this is not a toll-free number). Individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and individuals with speech impairments may access this number via TTY by calling the Federal Relay Service, toll free, at 800-877-8339.

The Equal Access Rule, codified primarily at 24 CFR 5.100 and 5.105(a)(2) and in applicable program regulations, defines the terms sexual orientation and gender identity, at 24 CFR 5.100, and requires, at 24 CFR 5.105(a)(2), that housing assisted or insured by HUD be made available to individuals and families without regard to an individual's actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status. Certain other rules governing HUD housing programs were revised to clarify that all otherwise eligible families, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status of any member, have the opportunity to participate in HUD programs. The 2012 rule also revised 24 CFR 203.33(b) by adding sexual orientation and gender identity, in addition to marital status, to the characteristics that an FHA-certified lender may not take into consideration in determining the adequacy of a mortgagor's income.\nFurther, \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) prohibits owners and administrators of HUD-assisted or HUD-insured housing, approved lenders in a Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage insurance program, and any other recipients or subrecipients of HUD funds from inquiring about sexual orientation or gender identity to determine eligibility for HUD-assisted or HUD-insured housing or otherwise make such housing available. The prohibition on inquiries regarding sexual orientation or gender identity does not prohibit individuals from voluntarily self-identifying sexual orientation or gender identity. Further, the rule provides a limited exception for inquiries about the sex of an individual to determine eligibility for housing provided or to be provided in temporary, emergency shelters with shared sleeping areas or bathrooms, or to determine the number of bedrooms to which a household may be entitled.\nIn response to public comments recommending that HUD-assisted programs accommodate individuals in accordance with their gender identity, HUD stated in the preamble to the Equal Access Rule that it was not adopting a national policy on the placement of transgender persons in temporary, emergency shelters with shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities at that time, but would instead monitor its programs to determine whether additional guidance or a national policy was needed to ensure equal access. In response to comments on the permissibility of inquiries about an individual's sex, HUD stated in the preamble to the Equal Access Rule that HUD would monitor its programs and review the prohibition on inquiries to determine whether additional guidance was necessary to provide transgender individuals with equal access to shelters and other housing. The Fair Housing Act\u20091 prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, making unavailable, or financing of dwellings and in other housing-related activities on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, and national origin, and thus prohibits making housing unavailable to a person because of that person's sex. However, temporary, emergency shelters and other buildings and facilities that are not covered by the Fair Housing Act\u20092 because they provide short-term, temporary accommodations may provide sex-segregated accommodations, when the buildings and facilities have physical limitations or configurations that require shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities.3\n1\u200942 U.S.C. 3601 et seq. The Fair Housing Act contains no exemptions that permit covered housing to be sex-segregated. See 42 U.S.C. 3603(b) (limited exemptions for sales of certain single-family homes and for rooms or units in certain owner-occupied dwellings), sec. 3607 (exemptions for private clubs and religious organizations).\n2\u2009An emergency shelter and other building and facility that would not qualify as dwellings under the Fair Housing Act are not subject to the Act's prohibition against sex discrimination and thus may be permitted by statute to be sex-segregated.\n3\u2009For purposes of this proposed rule, shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities are those that do not accommodate privacy. For example, a single user bathing facility with a lock on the door accommodates privacy, so it is not a \u201cshared bathing facility\u201d for purposes of the Equal Access Rule or this proposed rule.\nSince the publication of the Equal Access Rule, HUD has conducted further review on the issue of transgender individuals' access to temporary, emergency shelters and other facilities with physical limitations or configurations that require shared sleeping quarters or bathing facilities, both in terms of individual cases and evidence from broader research. In this regard, HUD and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness conducted a listening session on LGBT issues at the National Alliance to End Homelessness's 2012 National Conference on Ending Homelessness, where homeless service providers reported that, if given the choice between a shelter designated for their assigned birth sex or sleeping on the streets, many transgender shelter-seekers would choose the streets.4 One participant reported that, in her community, transgender women are excluded from the women's shelter, and conditions for them are so dangerous at the men's shelter that the shelter forces them to try to disguise their gender identity. HUD has also investigated several cases in which transgender persons have not been provided equal access to housing as required by the Equal Access Rule or have faced discrimination under the Fair Housing Act because of nonconformance with gender stereotypes.\n4\u2009See http://usich.gov/blog/hud_usich_hears_from_you_understanding_the_needs_of_the_lgbt_homeless_popul.\nNational research indicates that these denials of access are a common occurrence. According to one major national survey on the experiences of transgender persons, nearly half (47 percent) of all transgender respondents who accessed shelters left those shelters because of the treatment they received there\u2014choosing the street over the abuse and indignity they experienced in the shelters.5 This survey further reported that 25 percent of transgender individuals who stayed in shelters were physically assaulted, and 22 percent were sexually assaulted, by another resident or shelter staff.6\n5\u2009Jamie M. Grant Et Al, Injustice at Every Turn: A Report of the National Transgender Discrimination Survey, National Center for Transgender Equality, 118 (2011).\n6\u2009See Jamie M. Grant Et Al, Injustice at Every Turn: A Report of the National Transgender Discrimination Survey, National Center for Transgender Equality, footnote 5 at 117-18 (2011).\nThe experiences of homeless transgender youth, specifically, have also been documented, with similar findings of lack of access to housing and services. While research suggests that transgender youth represent less than one percent of the youth in the United States,7 a disproportionately high 6.8 percent of youth living on the streets identify as transgender.8 In addition, a report detailing case studies of runaway and homeless youth found that transgender youth were particularly at risk of emotional distress resulting from discrimination or harassment because of gender identity and supported establishing clear nondiscrimination and antiharassment policies relating to gender identity. With respect to facilities with shared sleeping or bathing areas, the policies recommended include addressing the needs of transgender persons and other persons who do not identify with the sex assigned to the individual at birth.9 A recent report on experiences of homeless LGBT youth also calls for the creation of safe and supportive protocols for housing and placement specific to transgender individuals and individuals who do not conform with gender stereotypes.10\n7\u2009Hannah Hussey, Beyond 4 walls and a Roof: Addressing Homelessness Among Transgender Youth, Center for American Progress, 4 (2015).\n8\u2009Administration for Children and Families, Street Outreach Program: Data Collection Project Executive Summary (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014).\n9\u2009Andrew Burwick Et Al, Identifying and Serving LGBTQ Youth: Case Studies of Runaway and Homeless Youth Program Grantees, Mathematica Policy Research and the Williams Institute, 19 (2014).\n10\u2009Meredith Dank Et Al, Surviving the streets of New York: Experiences of LGBTQ youth, YMSM, and YWSW Engaged in Survival Sex. Urban Institute, 70 (2015).\nHUD has also reviewed steps that other Federal agencies have taken since the Equal Access Rule was promulgated in February 2012 to provide equal access for transgender persons and other persons who do not conform with gender stereotypes.\nU.S. Department of Justice Guidance. On April 9, 2014, the Office for Civil Rights, Office of Justice Programs, at the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) published guidance entitled \u201cFrequently Asked Questions: Nondiscrimination Grant Condition in the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013\u201d\u200911 (VAWA 2013 FAQ). VAWA 2013 authorizes certain grants administered by DOJ, including grants to provide housing assistance for survivors of domestic violence. VAWA 2013 also imposes a new grant condition that prohibits discrimination by recipients of such grants on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. The VAWA 2013 FAQ, which is not applicable to HUD-assisted housing,12 addresses how a recipient of DOJ funds can operate a single-sex facility funded through VAWA and not discriminate on the basis of gender identity. The DOJ guidance states:\n11\u2009The guidance can be found at http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/ovw/legacy/2014/06/20/faqs-ngc-vawa.pdf.\n12\u2009Unlike HUD program statutes, which do not authorize single-sex housing, VAWA 2013 specifically authorizes funding for single-sex shelters in certain narrowly defined circumstances.\nA recipient that operates a sex-segregated or sex-specific program should assign a beneficiary\u200913 to the group or service which corresponds to the gender with which the beneficiary identifies, with the following considerations. In deciding how to house a victim, a recipient that provides sex-segregated housing may consider on a case-by-case basis whether a particular housing assignment would ensure the victim's health and safety. A victim's own views with respect to personal safety deserve serious consideration. The recipient should ensure that its services do not isolate or segregate victims based upon actual or perceived gender identity. A recipient may not make a determination about services for one beneficiary based on the complaints of another beneficiary when those complaints are based on gender identity.\n13\u2009The beneficiary is the individual seeking services from the recipient or service provider.\nFor the purpose of assigning a beneficiary to sex-segregated or sex-specific services, best practices dictate that the recipient should ask a transgender beneficiary which group or service the beneficiary wishes to join. The recipient may not, however, ask questions about the beneficiary's anatomy or medical history or make burdensome demands for identity documents.14\n14\u2009See Department of Justice, Frequently Asked Questions: Nondiscrimination Grant Conditions in the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (Apr. 9, 2013), FAQ 14, available at http://www.ovw.usdoj.gov/docs/faqs-ngc-vawa.pdf.\nU.S. Department of Education Guidance. Similarly, on December 1, 2014, the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights issued guidance providing that \u201cunder Title IX [of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits discrimination based on sex], a recipient generally must treat transgender students consistent with their gender identity in all aspects of the planning, implementation, enrollment, operation, and evaluation of single-sex classes.\u201d\u200915\n15\u2009The guidance can be found at http://www.ed.gov/ocr/docs/faqs-title-ix-single-sex-201412.pdf. In this guidance the Department of Education considers discrimination based on gender identity as a form of sex discrimination. The guidance states, in relevant part: \u201cAll students, including transgender students and students who do not conform to sex stereotypes, are protected from sex-based discrimination under Title IX. Under Title IX, a recipient generally must treat transgender students consistent with their gender identity in all aspects of the planning, implementation, enrollment, operation, and evaluation of single-sex classes.\u201d See also the Department of Education's guidance, \u201cQuestions and Answers on Title IX and Sexual Violence,\u201d which makes clear that sexual violence against transgender students is a form of sex discrimination prohibited by Title IX. The guidance can be found at http://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/qa-201404-title-ix.pdf. In addition to this guidance, the Department of Labor, Office of Job Corps, issued guidance ensuring equal access and opportunity for transgender applicants and students in the Job Corps Program; see \u201cEnsuring Equal Access for Transgender Applicants and Students to the Job Corps Program\u201d issued May 1, 2015, available at https://supportservices.jobcorps.gov/health/Pages/PINotices.aspx.\nGiven HUD's mission to provide equal housing opportunities for all, and the significant violence, harassment, and discrimination faced by transgender individuals and other persons who do not identify with the sex they were assigned at birth in attempting to access programs, benefits, services, and accommodations, HUD has a responsibility to provide leadership in establishing a policy for HUD's community development programs that addresses these serious concerns. After considering the feedback from HUD recipients and subrecipients, the experiences of the beneficiaries of HUD's community development programs who have been denied access because of their gender identity, research on transgender discrimination in shelter settings, and the actions taken by other Federal agencies to address access to programs, benefits, services, and accommodations in accordance with an individual's gender identity, CPD released Notice CPD-015-02, \u201cAppropriate Placement for Transgender Persons in Single-Sex Emergency Shelters and Other Facilities,\u201d applicable to the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS, Emergency Solutions Grants, and Continuum of Care programs, on February 20, 2015.16 This guidance states:\n16\u2009See https://www.hudexchange.info/resources/documents/Notice-CPD-15-02-Appropriate-Placement-for-Transgender-Persons-in-Single-Sex-Emergency-Shelters-and-Other-Facilities.pdf.\nHUD assumes that a recipient or subrecipient (\u201cprovider\u201d) that makes decisions about eligibility for or placement into single-sex emergency shelters or other facilities will place a potential client (or current client seeking a new assignment) in a shelter or facility that corresponds to the gender with which the person identifies, taking health and safety concerns into consideration. A client's or potential client's own views with respect to personal health and safety should be given serious consideration in making the placement. For instance, if the potential client requests to be placed based on his or her sex assigned at birth, HUD assumes that the provider will place the individual in accordance with that request, consistent with health, safety, and privacy concerns. HUD assumes that a provider will not make an assignment or re-assignment based on complaints of another person when the sole stated basis of the complaint is a client or potential client's non-conformance with gender stereotypes.17\nCPD's guidance also outlines best practices for appropriate and inappropriate inquiries related to sex, and states that where a provider is uncertain of the client's sex or gender identity, the provider informs the client or potential client that the agency provides shelter based on the individual's gender identity. The guidance further states that there generally is no legitimate reason for the provider to request documentation of a person's sex in order to determine appropriate placement, nor should the provider have any basis to deny access to a single-sex emergency shelter or facility solely because the provider possesses identity documents indicating a sex different than the client's or potential client's gender identity. Further, the provider may not ask questions or otherwise seek information or documentation concerning the person's anatomy or medical history, nor consider a client ineligible for an emergency shelter or other facility because the client's appearance or behavior does not conform with gender stereotypes. In addition, the guidance provides examples of steps that providers may take to address safety or privacy concerns, and says that providers should train staff on adhering to this guidance.18\nII. This Proposed Rule\nTo adopt requirements consistent with the guidance recently published by HUD, HUD is proposing to add in 24 CFR part 5 a new section that would require recipients and subrecipients of assistance under the HOME Investment Partnerships program, Community Development Block Grant program, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS program, Emergency Solutions Grants program, and the Continuum of Care program, as well as owners, operators, and managers of shelters and other buildings and facilities and providers of services funded in whole or in part by any of these programs, to provide equal access to programs, benefits, services, and accommodations in accordance with an individual's gender identity. If the proposed rule becomes a final rule, the final rule would be effective upon receipt of assistance after the effective date of the final rule. Nothing in this proposed rule is meant to prevent necessary and appropriate steps to address any fraudulent attempts to access services or legitimate safety concerns that may arise in any shelter, building, or facility covered by this rule.\nPrior to discussing the requirements that would be established in this section, it is important to clarify which individuals would be covered by the protections of this new section. While some individuals refer to themselves as transgender, other persons who do not identify with the sex they were assigned at birth may use other terms to describe themselves. For this reason, the proposed rule seeks to ensure that all individuals, regardless of the terms they use to describe themselves, are afforded equal access to programs, benefits, services, and accommodations in accordance with their gender identity.\nThe following requirements would be established by this proposed rule:\n\u00a7\u20095.100\u2014Revised definition of gender identity.\nHUD is proposing to amend the definition of gender identity in \u00a7\u20095.100, which currently provides that \u201cGender identity means actual or perceived gender-related characteristics.\u201d This definition of gender identity, which was adopted by HUD in its 2012 Equal Access Rule for purposes of ensuring equal access in HUD-assisted and HUD-insured housing, is the same definition that was used in the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, 18 U.S.C. 249. While this definition is effective for purposes of prosecuting hate crimes, HUD has concluded that it would be more effective for purposes of ensuring equal access to HUD programs to separate the definitions of actual and perceived gender identity. The Department is therefore proposing to amend the definition of gender identity to read as follows: \u201cGender identity means the gender with which a person identifies, regardless of the sex assigned to that person at birth. Perceived gender identity means the gender with which a person is perceived to identify based on that person's appearance, behavior, expression, other gender-related characteristics, or sex assigned to the individual at birth.\u201d Perceived gender identity may differ from the identity with which a person identifies.\n\u00a7\u20095.106\u2014Providing access in accordance with an individual's gender identity in community planning and development programs.\nHUD proposes to add a new \u00a7\u20095.106, which would contain equal access provisions specifically tailored to HUD's community development programs. This proposed new provision would be placed after the more general equal access provisions applicable to all HUD housing programs, added in 2012 to \u00a7\u20095.105.\nSection 5.106(a) would identify the programs covered by the new \u00a7\u20095.106. Section 5.106 would apply to recipients and subrecipients of assistance under the HOME Investment Partnerships program (24 CFR part 92), Community Development Block Grant program (24 CFR part 570), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS program (24 CFR part 574), Emergency Solutions Grants program (24 CFR part 576), or Continuum of Care program (24 CFR part 578), as well as to owners, operators, and managers of shelters and other buildings and facilities and providers of services funded in whole or in part by any of these programs.\nSection 5.106(b) is the operative provision in \u00a7\u20095.106. Under this subsection, a recipient, subrecipient, or provider would be required to establish, amend, or maintain program admissions, occupancy, and operating policies and procedures, including policies and procedures to protect individuals' privacy and security, so that equal access is provided to individuals based on their gender identity. This requirement includes tenant selection and admission preferences. The provision also requires that services, benefits, and accommodations be provided in a manner that affords equal access to the individual's family.19\n19\u2009As noted above, the Fair Housing Act prohibits familial status discrimination. Accordingly, housing providers covered by the Fair Housing Act may not discriminate based on familial status unless the housing meets statutory and regulatory requirements for housing for older persons. 42 U.S.C. 3607(b); 24 CFR part 100, subpart E.\nSection 5.106(c) addresses temporary, emergency shelters and other buildings and facilities with physical limitations or configurations that require shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities. This section requires that the placement and accommodation of individuals in such facilities that are permitted to be single-sex because they are not covered by the Fair Housing Act must be made in accordance with the individual's gender identity.\nThe only exception to the requirement to accommodate and serve a person in accordance with the individual's gender identity is that the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider may consider, on a case-by-case basis, whether a particular housing assignment would ensure health and safety. It is prohibited for such a determination to be based solely on a person's actual or perceived gender identity or on complaints of other shelter residents when those complaints are based on actual or perceived gender identity. It is likewise prohibited to deny appropriate placement based on a perceived threat to health or safety that can be mitigated some other less burdensome way (e.g., providing the transgender shelter seeker the option to use single-use bathing facilities).\nSection 5.106(d) requires that when such a determination is made, the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider is required to provide either (1) equivalent alternative accommodation, benefits, and services or (2) a referral to a comparable alternative program that meets the needs of the individual. HUD expects the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider to refer the individual to a comparable alternative program that can more appropriately mitigate or eliminate the safety risk and that has available accommodations, or offer the individual equivalent alternative accommodation (e.g., a hotel or motel voucher), benefits, and services. HUD anticipates that the use of this limited exception for the provision of equivalent alternative accommodations, benefits, and services or referral to a comparable alternative program would be rare, since it would not apply unless the facts and circumstances demonstrated a nondiscriminatory risk to health or safety that could not be eliminated or appropriately mitigated by policy adjustments and physical modifications to buildings and facilities.\nSection 5.106(e) requires that records of case-by-case determinations must be kept by the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider, including when the determination is made that an individual cannot safely be served in accordance with the individual's gender identity. Where an alternative placement is made, recipients, subrecipients, owners, operators, managers, or providers must thoroughly document the reasons for that placement, in accordance with the recordkeeping requirements established in this subsection. Further, the recordkeeping section proposes that when a referral is made, the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider documents the facts and circumstances regarding the referral and whether the individual and the individual's family, in instances where the individual presents with a family, has been admitted and accommodated.\n\u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii)\u2014Removal of prohibited inquiries.\nIn the preamble to HUD's 2012 Equal Access Rule, HUD stated that it would review the prohibition of inquiries in \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) following monitoring of the application of this provision in HUD programs. As discussed earlier in this preamble, CPD released Notice CPD-015-02 \u201cAppropriate Placement for Transgender Persons in Single-Sex Emergency Shelters and Other Facilities,\u201d applicable to the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS, Emergency Solutions Grants, and Continuum of Care programs, on February 20, 2015,20 which provided that HUD expected recipients, subrecipients, and providers to accommodate individuals in accordance with the individual's gender identity. The guidance states that where a provider is uncertain of the client's sex or gender identity and that information matters for the determination of placement, the provider informs the client or potential client that the agency provides shelter based on the individual's gender identity. HUD now believes, however, that the prohibition of inquiries at \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) may hinder a provider from making an appropriate placement decision for fear of violating the rule. For this reason, HUD is proposing to remove the prohibition of inquiries.\nHUD's intent in proposing removal of \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) is not to now permit recipients or subrecipients to ask questions in order to seek information that could be used for discriminatory purposes. Rather, HUD is proposing removal because \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) has raised several legitimate questions about implementation. Removal of \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) would allow shelters and other facilities with physical limitations or configurations that require shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities to ask the individual's gender identity, and it would permit inquiries of the individual's gender identity and sexual orientation to determine the number of bedrooms to which a household is entitled. Removal of \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii) also reaffirms that HUD permits mechanisms for voluntary and anonymous reporting of sexual orientation or gender identity for compliance with data collection requirements of State and local governments or Federal assistance programs.\nIII. Findings and Certifications Regulatory Review\u2014Executive Order 12866 and 13563\nExecutive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health, and safety effects; distributive impacts; and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. Under Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review), a determination must be made whether a regulatory action is significant and, therefore, subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in accordance with the requirements of the order.\nThis proposed rule is consistent with Administration policy, as has been noted in the preamble by citing to policy already implemented by the U.S Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Labor, and the CPD guidance already implemented by HUD. This proposed rule clarifies how facilities funded by CPD that have shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities comply with the requirement that equal access be provided to programs, buildings, facilities, services, benefits, and accommodations in accordance with the individual's gender identity. This clarification should provide benefits to clients accessing CPD-funded, temporary, emergency shelters and other buildings and facilities by assuring all clients receive equal access, and will benefit the CPD-funded facilities by making compliance with HUD's equal access requirements easier.\nIn this proposed rule, HUD recognizes a limited exception to accommodating individuals in accordance with the individual's gender identity when a recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider identifies a legitimate safety risk that cannot be eliminated or appropriately mitigated and makes a written case-by-case analysis. The written case-by-case analysis only applies when the benefits, services, and accommodations are not being provided to an individual in accordance with the individual's gender identity. The written case-by-case analysis benefits the client accessing the services and the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider by keeping a record of when a legitimate safety risk is identified. The recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider must also undertake reasonable efforts to ensure that equivalent alternative accommodations are provided or refer the individual to a comparable alternative program that will meet the individual's needs. This proposed rule also seeks to amend the definition of gender identity in \u00a7\u20095.100 to clarify the difference between actual and perceived gender identity, which would be necessary if proposed \u00a7\u20095.106 is adopted. This proposed rule also would eliminate the prohibition on inquiries relating to sexual orientation or gender identity in \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(ii). Both of these proposed changes would make it easier for recipients, subrecipients, owners, operators, managers, and providers of programs, buildings, and facilities funded by CPD programs to comply with the requirements of existing \u00a7\u20095.105(a)(2)(i) and proposed \u00a7\u20095.106. An estimate of the cost of recording and retaining that written case-by-case analysis, in the limited situations in which it may apply, is discussed in the Paperwork Reduction Act section of this proposed rule.\nThe docket file is available for public inspection in the Regulations Division, Office of General Counsel, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 7th Street SW., Room 10276, Washington, DC 20410-0500. Due to security measures at the HUD Headquarters building, please schedule an appointment to review the docket file by calling the Regulations Division at 202-402-3055 (this is not a toll-free number). Individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and individuals with speech impairments may access this number via TTY by calling the Federal Relay Service at 800-877-8339 (this is a toll-free number).\nThe Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) generally requires an agency to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements, unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Approximately 4,000 providers participating in the CPD programs covered by this rule are small organizations, but the number of entities that would address the accommodation needs addressed by this rule is much lower. The benefit of this proposed rule is to ensure equal access to CPD programs, facilities, services, benefits, and accommodations. The rule does require organizations to make a written case-by-case analysis and referral in limited situations. Although HUD does not have any way to determine the number of written case-by-case analyses or referrals that will occur in any one year, HUD does not believe that costs will be significant for small service providers and estimates it will take a provider 15 minutes per case-by-case analysis and referral. HUD invites interested parties to provide data with which HUD can formulate better estimates of the compliance costs associated with the written notice and referral requirements of this proposed rule. Accordingly, for the foregoing reasons, the undersigned certifies that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Notwithstanding HUD's determination that this proposed rule would not have a significant effect on a substantial number of small entities, HUD specifically invites comments regarding any less burdensome alternatives to this rule that will meet HUD's objectives and the principles in Executive Order 13559, as described in this preamble.\nThe proposed rule requires CPD programs to include a written case-by-case analysis and make referrals. This rule also requires the retention of records to show that the case-by-case analysis was followed and referral requirements in this rulemaking have been met. HUD estimates that a case-by-case analysis and referral will be required infrequently given that the case-by-case analysis is only necessary when the provider is not providing accommodations to an individual in accordance with the gender with which an individual identifies because there is a legitimate safety risk that cannot be eliminated or appropriately mitigated. HUD estimates that only 0.05 percent of facilities that are covered by this proposed regulation will need to make a written case-by-case analysis and referral, and estimates it will take an individual 15 minutes to complete the case-by-case analysis and referral. This estimate includes the time required to write down the basis for the analysis, identify service providers that provide similar services, and make the referral.\nThe information collection requirements for the CPD's HOME Investment Partnerships program, Community Development Block Grant program (State and entitlement), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS program, Emergency Solutions Grants program, or Continuum of Care program impacted by this rule have been approved by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520) and assigned OMB control numbers 2506-0171, 2506-0085, 2506-0077, 2506-0133, 2506-0089, and 2506-0199. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless the collection displays a currently valid OMB control number. The existing forms will be changed to include the new recordkeeping requirement added by this proposed rule.\n(1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility.\n(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information.\n(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected.\n(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond; including through the use of appropriate automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology (e.g., by permitting electronic submission of responses).\nInterested persons are invited to submit comments regarding the information collection requirements in this rule. Comments must refer to the proposed rule by name and docket number (FR-5583-P-01) and must be sent to: HUD Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503, Fax number: 202-395-6947; and Reports Liaison Officer, Office of Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 7th Street SW., Room 9128, Washington, DC 20410.\nInterested persons may submit comments regarding the information collection requirements electronically through the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. HUD strongly encourages commenters to submit comments electronically. Electronic submission of comments allows the commenter maximum time to prepare and submit a comment, ensures timely receipt by HUD, and enables HUD to make them immediately available to the public. Comments submitted electronically through the http://www.regulations.gov Web site can be viewed by other commenters and interested members of the public. Commenters should follow the instructions provided on that site to submit comments electronically.\nThis proposed rule sets forth nondiscrimination standards. Accordingly, under 24 CFR 50.19(c)(3), this rule is categorically excluded from environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321).\nExecutive Order 13132 (entitled \u201cFederalism\u201d) prohibits an agency from publishing any rule that has federalism implications if the rule either: (i) Imposes substantial direct compliance costs on State and local governments and is not required by statute or (ii) preempts State law, unless the agency meets the consultation and funding requirements of section 6 of the Executive order. This proposed rule would not have federalism implications and would not impose substantial direct compliance costs on state and local governments or preempt state law within the meaning of the Executive order.\nTitle II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) (UMRA) establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal governments, and on the private sector. This proposed rule does not impose any Federal mandates on any State, local, or tribal governments, or on the private sector, within the meaning of the UMRA.\nPART 5\u2014GENERAL HUD PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS; WAIVERS 1. The authority citation for 24 CFR part 5 continues to read as follows: Authority:\n2. In \u00a7\u20095.100, revise the definition for \u201cGender identity\u201d to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20095.100 Definitions.\nGender identity means the gender with which a person identifies, regardless of the sex assigned to that person at birth. Perceived gender identity means the gender with which a person is perceived to identify based on that person's appearance, behavior, expression, other gender related characteristics, or sex assigned to the individual at birth.\n3. In \u00a7\u20095.105, remove paragraph (a)(2)(ii) and redesignate paragraph (a)(2)(i) as paragraph (a)(2). 4. Add \u00a7\u20095.106 to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20095.106 Providing access in accordance with the individual's gender identity in community planning and development programs.\n(a) Applicability. This section applies to recipients and subrecipients of assistance under the HOME Investment Partnerships program (24 CFR part 92), Community Development Block Grant program (24 CFR part 570), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS program (24 CFR part 574), Emergency Solutions Grants program (24 CFR part 576), or Continuum of Care program (24 CFR part 578), as well as to owners, operators, and managers of shelters and other buildings and facilities and providers of services funded in whole or in part by any of these programs.\n(b) Equal access in accordance with gender identity. The admissions, occupancy, and operating policies and procedures of recipients, subrecipients, owners, operators, managers, and providers identified in paragraph (a) of this section, including policies and procedures to protect privacy and security, shall be established or amended, as necessary, and administered so:\n(1) Equal access to programs, shelters, other buildings and facilities, benefits, services, and accommodations is provided to individuals in accordance with the individual's gender identity, and in a manner that affords equal access to the individual's family; and\n(2) Individuals are placed, served, and accommodated in accordance with the individual's gender identity.\n(c) Placement and accommodation in facilities with shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities. Placement and accommodation of individuals in shelters and other buildings and facilities with physical limitations or configurations that require and are permitted to have shared sleeping quarters or shared bathing facilities shall be made in accordance with the individual's gender identity. Under narrow circumstances, a written case-by-case determination can be made as to whether an alternative accommodation is necessary to ensure health and safety. It shall be prohibited for such a determination to be based solely on a person's actual or perceived gender identity, the complaints of other clients, beneficiaries, or employees when those complaints are based on actual or perceived gender identity, or on an actual or perceived threat to health or safety that can be mitigated in some other way that is less burdensome. In order to avoid unwarranted denials of placement in accordance with an individual's gender identity, decisions to provide accommodations based on concern for the health and safety of the individual seeking accommodations should be based on the individual's own request to be otherwise accommodated.\n(d) Referrals. In any instance in which a case-by-case determination is made under paragraph (c) of this section, the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider shall ensure that an opportunity to access equivalent alternative accommodations, benefits, and services is provided or shall refer the individual to a comparable alternative program with availability that will meet the individual's needs.\n(e) Documentation and record retention. Providers shall document and maintain records of compliance with the requirements in paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of this section for a period of 5 years, including but not limited to:\n(1) The specific facts, circumstances, and reasoning relied upon in any case-by-case determination that results in an alternative admission, accommodation, benefit, or service to an individual or their family;\n(2) The facts and circumstances regarding the opportunities to access alternative accommodations that are provided to an individual and their families by the recipient, subrecipient, owner, operator, manager, or provider; and\n(3) The facts, circumstances, and outcomes regarding each referral of an individual and their family to a comparable alternative program, including information regarding the benefits, services, and accommodations received.\nDated: October 23, 2015. Juli\u00e1n Castro, Secretary. [FR Doc. 2015-29342 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4210-67-P DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Internal Revenue Service 26 CFR Part 1 [REG-134219-08] RIN 1545-BI82 Relief From Joint and Several Liability AGENCY:\nThis document contains proposed regulations relating to relief from joint and several liability under section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). The regulations reflect changes in the law made by the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 as well as changes in the law arising from litigation. The regulations provide guidance to married individuals who filed joint returns and later seek relief from joint and several liability.\nWritten or electronic comments and requests for a public hearing must be received by February 18, 2016.\nSend submissions to: CC:PA:LPD:PR (REG-134219-08), Room 5203, Internal Revenue Service, P.O. Box 7604, Ben Franklin Station, Washington, DC 20044. Submissions may be hand-delivered Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to CC:PA:LPD:PR (REG-134219-08), Courier's Desk, Internal Revenue Service, 1111 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC; or sent electronically via the Federal eRulemaking Portal at www.regulations.gov (IRS REG-134219-08).\nConcerning the proposed regulations, Nancy Rose at (202) 317-6844; concerning submissions of comments contact Oluwafunmilayo Taylor, (202) 317-6901 (not toll-free numbers).\nThis document contains proposed amendments to the Income Tax Regulations (26 CFR part 1) for relief from joint and several liability under section 6015 of the Code and relief from the operation of state community property law under section 66.\nSection 6013(a) permits a husband and wife to file a joint income tax return. Section 6013(d)(3) provides that spouses filing a joint income tax return are jointly and severally liable for liabilities for tax arising from that return. The term \u201ctax\u201d includes additions to tax, additional amounts, penalties, and interest. See sections 6665(a)(2) and 6601(e)(1). Joint and several liability allows the IRS to collect the entire liability from either spouse who signed the joint return, without regard to whom the items of income, deduction, credit, or basis that gave rise to the liability are attributable. Prior to 1998, section 6013(e) provided limited relief from joint and several liability. In 1998, Congress enacted the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, Public Law 105-206, 112 Stat. 685 (1998), which repealed section 6013(e) and replaced it with section 6015. Section 6015 applies to liabilities arising after July 22, 1998, and liabilities that arose on or before July 22, 1998, but remained unpaid as of that date.\nSection 6015 provides three avenues for relief from joint and several liability\u2014sections 6015(b), (c) and (f). To be eligible for relief from joint and several liability, a spouse must request relief. Under section 6015(b), a requesting spouse may be entitled to relief from joint and several liability for an understatement of tax attributable to erroneous items of the nonrequesting spouse. Section 6015(c) permits a taxpayer who is divorced, separated, widowed, or who had been living apart from the other spouse for 12 months to allocate his or her tax deficiency between the spouses as if separate returns had been filed. Claims for relief under section 6015(b) and (c) must be made within two years of the IRS's first collection activity against the requesting spouse. Finally, section 6015(f) confers discretion upon the Commissioner to grant equitable relief from joint and several liability for understatements and underpayments, based on all the facts and circumstances. Regulations under section 6015 were first prescribed in TD 9003, Federal Register (67 FR 47278) on July 18, 2002.\nThese proposed amendments are necessary to carry out the provisions of section 6015 and to reflect changes in the law since the publication of TD 9003. On December 20, 2006, Congress enacted the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006, Public Law 109-432, div. C, title IV, section 408, 120 Stat. 2922, 3061-62 (2006) (the 2006 Act). The 2006 Act amended section 6015 to provide the United States Tax Court with jurisdiction to review the Commissioner's determination to deny equitable relief under section 6015(f) when the Commissioner has not determined a deficiency and to suspend the period of limitation for collection under section 6502 when relief is requested only under section 6015(f). The proposed regulations also provide clarification and additional guidance on procedural and substantive issues related to the three types of relief from joint and several liability under section 6015.\nSection 66 provides relief for a spouse who did not file a joint return in a community property state and did not include in gross income an item of community income that would be attributable solely to the nonrequesting spouse but for the operation of state community property law. Regulations under section 66 were first prescribed in TD 9074, Federal Register (68 FR 41067) on July 10, 2003. The proposed regulations under section 66 contain only non-substantive changes.\nRecently, other amendments to the regulations under section 6015 were proposed in a notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-132251-11) published in the Federal Register (78 FR 49242) on August 13, 2013. Those regulations proposed changes to \u00a7\u20091.6015-5 to remove the two-year deadline for taxpayers to file requests for equitable relief under section 6015(f), and other changes related to the time and manner for requesting relief. Additionally, on September 16, 2013, the IRS issued Rev. Proc. 2013-34 (2013-2 CB 397). Rev. Proc. 2013-34 revised the factors used in determining if a requesting spouse is eligible for equitable relief under sections 66(c) and 6015(f).\nThese regulations propose to make a number of significant changes to the existing regulations. These changes include providing additional guidance on the judicial doctrine of res judicata and the section 6015(g)(2) exception to res judicata when a requesting spouse did not meaningfully participate in a prior court proceeding. The regulations propose to add a list of acts to be considered in making the determination as to whether the requesting spouse meaningfully participated in a prior proceeding and provide examples of the operation of these rules. The regulations also (1) propose a definition of underpayment or unpaid tax for purposes of section 6015(f); (2) provide detailed rules regarding credits and refunds in innocent spouse cases; (3) expand the rule that penalties and interest are not separate items from which relief can be obtained to cases involving underpayments; (4) incorporate an administratively developed rule that attribution of an erroneous item follows the attribution of the underlying item that caused the increase to adjusted gross income (AGI); (5) update the discussion of the allocation rules under section 6015(c) and (d); and (6) revise the rules regarding prohibition on collection and suspension of the collection statute.\n1. Section 1.6015-1\nThe procedures for requesting relief on Form 8857, \u201cRequest for Innocent Spouse Relief,\u201d under section 6015 have changed since 2006 because of the amendments to section 6015(e) made by Section 408 of Title IV of Division C of the 2006 Act. The amendments to section 6015(e) conferred jurisdiction on the Tax Court to review the Commissioner's denial of relief under section 6015(f) in cases in which a deficiency had not been asserted. The amendments also provided for a prohibition on collection and a corresponding tolling of the collection statute under section 6502 upon the filing of a request for relief under section 6015(f). The amendments apply to any liability for taxes arising on or after December 20, 2006, and to any liability for taxes arising before December 20, 2006, and remaining unpaid as of that date. As a result of the amendments, any request for relief under section 6015 will toll the collection statute, making it unnecessary for a spouse to elect or request a particular type of relief as required under \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(a)(2) of the current regulations. Accordingly, \u00a7\u20091.6015-1 and all sections referencing an election under \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2 and 1.6015-3 or a request for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 are proposed to be revised to reflect that a requesting spouse is no longer required to elect or request relief under a specific provision of section 6015. Thus, beginning with the June 2007 revision to the Form 8857, a requesting spouse makes a single request for relief on Form 8857. Section 1.6015-1 is also being revised to provide that the IRS will consider in all cases whether the requesting spouse is eligible for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 or \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, and if relief is not available under either of those sections, under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4.\nSection 6015(g)(2) provides an exception to the common law doctrine of res judicata except in a case in which relief under section 6015 was at issue in a prior court proceeding or if a requesting spouse meaningfully participated in a prior proceeding. in which relief under section 6015 could have been raised Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e) is being revised in these proposed regulations to provide more detailed guidance on how the exception to res judicata and the meaningful participation rule work, and to reflect developments in the case law since 2002 (described below). Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(1) restates the general rule from the current regulations.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(2) incorporates the holding in Deihl v. Commissioner, 134 T.C. 156 (2010) (When a requesting spouse generally raises relief under section 6015 in a proceeding but does not specifically plead relief under any subsection of section 6015, relief under section 6015(c) will not be treated as being at issue in that proceeding if the requesting spouse was not eligible to elect relief under section 6015(c) because the requesting spouse was not divorced, widowed, legally separated, or living apart for 12 months at any time during the prior proceeding.).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3) provides guidance on the meaningful participation exception to res judicata provided by section 6015(g)(2). A requesting spouse meaningfully participated in the prior proceeding if the requesting spouse was involved in the proceeding so that the requesting spouse could have raised the issue of relief under section 6015 in that proceeding. Meaningful participation is a facts and circumstances determination. A nonexclusive list of acts was added in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3) to provide indicators of \u201cmeaningful participation\u201d within the context of a bar against relief based on the judicial doctrine of res judicata. Whether a requesting spouse meaningfully participated in a prior proceeding is based on all the facts and circumstances. No one act necessarily determines the outcome. The degree of importance of each act varies depending on the requesting spouse's facts and circumstances. The following acts, derived from case law and experience since 2002, are among the acts the IRS and courts consider in making the determination regarding meaningful participation: Whether the requesting spouse participated in the IRS Appeals process while the prior case was docketed; whether the requesting spouse participated in discovery; whether the requesting spouse participated in pretrial meetings, settlement negotiations, or trial; whether the requesting spouse signed court documents; and whether the requesting spouse was represented by counsel in the prior proceedings.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3)(i) provides a new rule under which the requesting spouse will not be considered to have meaningfully participated in the prior proceeding if the requesting spouse establishes that the requesting spouse performed any of the acts listed in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3) because the nonrequesting spouse abused or maintained control over the requesting spouse, and the requesting spouse did not challenge the nonrequesting spouse for fear of the nonrequesting spouse's retaliation. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3)(ii) restates the rule from the current regulations that a requesting spouse did not meaningfully participate in a prior proceeding if, due to the effective date of section 6015, relief under section 6015 was not available in that proceeding.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(3)(iii) provides that in a case petitioned from a statutory notice of deficiency under section 6213, the fact that the requesting spouse did not have the ability to effectively contest the underlying deficiency is irrelevant for purposes of determining whether the requesting spouse meaningfully participated in the prior proceeding. Treasury and the IRS disagree with the holding in Harbin v. Commissioner, 137 T.C. 93 (2011), in which the Tax Court concluded that Mr. Harbin did not meaningfully participate in the deficiency case in part because he could not effectively contest the part of the deficiency related to his ex-wife's gambling losses without her. The Tax Court found that Mr. Harbin could not effectively contest this part of the deficiency without his ex-wife because she \u201cwas the one with personal knowledge of the winnings and losses from the gambling activities\u201d and was the one \u201cwho maintained and provided all of the documentation relating to the gambling activities.\u201d The Tax Court concluded that this knowledge and control of the documentation resulted in Mr. Harbin's ex-wife effectively exercising \u201cexclusive control\u201d of the case. Harbin v. Commissioner, 137 T.C. at 98.\nTreasury and the IRS believe that the Tax Court applied the incorrect standard to determine whether a taxpayer meaningfully participated in a proceeding for purposes of section 6015(g)(2). The purpose of the meaningful participation exception to res judicata is not to ensure that a taxpayer had the opportunity to contest the deficiency but rather to ensure that the taxpayer could have raised relief under section 6015. Moore v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2007-156. This is evident because, if section 6015 relief was at issue in the prior case, the taxpayer is not permitted to raise section 6015 relief in a subsequent proceeding regardless of the degree to which the taxpayer participated or whether taxpayer's ability to contest the deficiency was impaired. See Deihl v. Commissioner, 134 T.C. 156, 161 (2010).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(4) provides examples of how the rules in paragraphs (e)(1), (e)(2), and (e)(3) work. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e)(5) restates the collateral estoppel rule from current \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(e) without change.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(1) and (h)(5) are being revised to remove the distinction between electing and requesting relief as discussed earlier in this preamble.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(6) defines \u201cunpaid tax\u201d for purposes of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. For purposes of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the regulations propose that the terms \u201cunpaid tax\u201d and \u201cunderpayment\u201d have the same meaning. The unpaid tax or underpayment on a joint return is the balance shown as due on the return reduced by the tax paid with the return or paid on or before the due date for payment (without considering any extension of time to pay). The balance due is determined after applying withholding credits, estimated tax payments, payments with an extension, and other credits applied against the total tax reported on the return. Payments made with the return include payments made by check in the same envelope with the return or remitted at a later date (but before the due date for payment) with Form 1040-V, \u201cPayment Voucher.\u201d Payments made with the return also include remittances made by direct debit, credit card, or other commercially acceptable means under section 6311 on or before the due date for payment. The determination of the existence and amount of unpaid tax is made as of the date the joint return is filed, or as of the due date for payment if payments are made after the return is filed but on or before the due date.\nIf the payments made with the joint return, including any payments made on or before the due date for payment (without considering any extension of time for payment), completely satisfy the balance due shown on the return, then there is no unpaid tax for purposes of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. A requesting spouse is not entitled to be considered for relief (credit or refund) under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 for any tax paid with the joint return (including a joint amended return). Payments made after the later of the date the joint return is filed or the due date for payment (without considering any extension of time for payment), including offsets of overpayments from other tax years, do not change the amount of unpaid tax reported on the joint return. Under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, a requesting spouse can only get relief from the unpaid tax on the return, and if refunds are available, from any payments made on the liability after the later of the date the joint return was filed or the due date for payment (without considering any extension of time for payment).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(7) and (h)(8) define understatement and deficiency, respectively. Section 6015(b)(3) provides that an \u201cunderstatement\u201d for purposes of section 6015 has the same meaning given to that term by section 6662(d)(2)(A). The definition of understatement is in current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(b) and therefore only applies to requests under that section. The term \u201cunderstatement,\u201d however, is a term that is relevant to relief under sections 6015(b), (c), and (f). These regulations propose to move the definition of \u201cunderstatement\u201d to proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(7) to allow a consistent definition to apply throughout the regulations. Likewise, proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(8) adds a definition of deficiency, by reference to section 6211 and the regulations under section 6211, to clarify that the term deficiency has the same meaning throughout the regulations.\nSection 6015(g)(1) provides that requesting spouses generally can receive a credit or refund of payments made on the joint liability if the requesting spouse is entitled to relief under section 6015. This general rule is set forth in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(1). Section 6015(g) also provides some limitations on the availability of credit or refund. New \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(2) through (5) discuss these and other limitations on credit or refund when a requesting spouse is eligible for relief.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(2) sets forth the limitation on refunds from section 6015(g)(3) when a requesting spouse is entitled to relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(3) sets forth the rule from current \u00a7\u20091.6015-4(b) that relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 is not available when the requesting spouse is entitled to full relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 but is not entitled to a refund because of the limitation in section 6015(g)(3) and proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(2). Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(4) incorporates, consistent with section 6015(g)(1), the limitations on credit or refund provided by sections 6511 (general limitations on credits or refunds) and 6512(b) (limitations on credits or refunds where the Tax Court determines that a taxpayer made an overpayment). This section also clarifies that, in general, Form 8857 will be treated as the requesting spouse's claim for credit or refund.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(5) sets forth the general rule that a requesting spouse who is entitled to relief is generally not eligible for a credit or refund of joint payments made with the nonrequesting spouse. Under the proposed rule, a requesting spouse, however, may be eligible for a credit or refund of the requesting spouse's portion of the requesting and nonrequesting spouse's joint overpayment from another tax year that was applied to the joint income tax liability to the extent that the requesting spouse can establish his or her contribution to the overpayment. Both spouses have an interest in a joint overpayment relative to each spouse's contribution to the overpayment. See, for example, Gordon v. United States, 757 F.2d 1157, 1160 (11th Cir. 1985) (\u201cWhere spouses claim a refund under a joint return, the refund is divided between the spouses, with each receiving a percentage of the refund equivalent to his or her proportion of the withheld tax payments.\u201d). If the requesting spouse contributed to the joint overpayment through withholding, estimated tax, or other payments, then the requesting spouse may be entitled to a refund of that portion of the overpayment that was applied to the joint liability. Under the proposed rule, a requesting spouse in a state that is not a community property state may establish his or her portion of a joint overpayment using the allocation rules of Rev. Rul. 80-7 (1980-1 CB 296), or successor guidance. A requesting spouse in a community property state may establish his or her portion of a joint overpayment using the allocation rules of Rev. Rul. 2004-71 (2004-2 CB 74), Rev. Rul. 2004-72 (2004-2 CB 77), Rev. Rul. 2004-73 (2004-2 CB 80), or Rev. Rul. 2004-74 (2004-2 CB 84), or successor guidance, whichever is applicable to the state in which the requesting spouse is domiciled. For copies of Revenue Procedures, Revenue Rulings, notices, and other guidance published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin, please visit the IRS Web site at http://www.irs.gov.\nThese proposed regulations reflect the elimination of the more restrictive rule regarding credit or refund when relief is granted under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 in cases involving a deficiency, as provided by Rev. Proc. 2013-34. A credit or refund, subject to the limitations in \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k), is available to a requesting spouse who is entitled to relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 in both underpayment and deficiency cases.\nCurrent \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(4) provides, in part, that penalties and interest are not separate erroneous items from which a requesting spouse can be relieved separate from the tax. Rather, relief from penalties and interest related to an understatement or deficiency will generally be determined based on the proportion of the total erroneous items from which the requesting spouse is relieved.\nThus, under the existing regulations, a requesting spouse who is determined not to be eligible for relief from the understatement or deficiency stemming from an erroneous item cannot be separately relieved from a penalty, such as the accuracy-related penalty, related to the item under section 6015. If a requesting spouse is entitled to partial relief (such as relief from two of three erroneous items giving rise to the understatement or deficiency), then the requesting spouse will be entitled to relief from the accuracy-related penalty applicable to those two items.\nThese regulations propose to move the discussion in current \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(4) to proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(m). Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(m) additionally clarifies, consistent with the statutory interpretation in current \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(4), that penalties and interest on an underpayment also are not separate items from which a requesting spouse may obtain relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. Rather, relief from penalties and interest on the underpayment will be determined based on the amount of relief from the underpayment to which the requesting spouse is entitled. If a requesting spouse remains liable for a portion of the underpayment after application of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the requesting spouse is not eligible for relief under section 6015 for the penalties and interest related to that portion of the underpayment. Cf. Weiler v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2003-255 (a requesting spouse is not relieved from liabilities for penalties and interest resulting from items attributable to the requesting spouse). This position is consistent with how the IRS currently treats relief from penalties and interest after determining the relief from the underlying tax. See IRM 25.15.3.4.1.1(2) (Revised 03/08/2013).\nIf an assessed deficiency is paid in full, or the unpaid tax reported on the joint return is later paid in full, but penalties and interest remain unpaid, under the proposed rule, a requesting spouse may be considered for relief from the penalties and interest under section 6015. The determination of relief from the penalties and interest is made by considering whether the requesting spouse would be entitled to relief from the underlying tax and not considering the penalties and interest as if they were separate items. A requesting spouse may be relieved from the penalties and interest even if relief in the form of a refund of the payments made on the underlying tax is barred (for example, \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(2) (no refunds allowed under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3) or \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(4) (refund barred by the limitations of sections 6511 or 6512(b)).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) provides attribution rules for a portion of an understatement or deficiency relating to the disallowance of certain items. Specifically, \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) addresses items that are otherwise not erroneous items, but are disallowed solely due to the increase of adjusted gross income (or modified adjusted gross income) over a phase-out threshold as a result of an erroneous item attributable to the nonrequesting spouse. One common example of this is when the nonrequesting spouse's omitted income increases adjusted gross income so that the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is phased out and the understatement or deficiency partially represents the recapture of the refunded EITC.\nUnder proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n), the understatement or deficiency related to the item disallowed due to the increase to adjusted gross income will be attributable to the spouse whose erroneous item caused the increase to adjusted gross income, unless the evidence shows that a different result is appropriate. If the increase to adjusted gross income is the result of erroneous items of both spouses, the item disallowed due to the increase to adjusted gross income will be attributable to the requesting spouse in the same ratio as the amount of the item or items attributable to the requesting spouse over the total amount of the items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income. Corresponding rules are proposed to be added to \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2(b) and 1.6015-3(c)(2)(i) to provide that a requesting spouse knows or has reason to know of the item disallowed due to the increase in adjusted gross income if the requesting spouse knows or has reason to know of the erroneous item or items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income. Likewise, for purposes of proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 and Rev. Proc. 2013-34, a requesting spouse knows or has reason to know of the portion of an understatement or deficiency related to an item attributable to the nonrequesting spouse under \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) if the requesting spouse knows or has reason to know of the nonrequesting spouse's erroneous item or items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income.\nExamples are provided to illustrate how this rule applies in situations involving the EITC, the phase-out of itemized deductions, and the application of the alternative minimum tax. This rule, however, can be implicated in other situations. It should be noted that this proposed rule would not apply if there is another reason for disallowing the item, such as no qualifying child for the EITC, no substantiation for a claimed deduction, or the lack of any basis in law or fact for the deduction. In this situation, the normal attribution rules applicable to \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2, 1.6015-3, and 1.6015-4 apply.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(o) provides a definition of abuse for purposes of proposed \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2(b) and 1.6015-3(c)(vi). The definition of abuse is taken directly from Rev. Proc. 2013-34, section 4.03(2)(c)(iv).\nOnly minor substantive changes are proposed to current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2. The proposed amendments reorganize the section, update references, and provide clarification where needed. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(a) changes the language in the existing regulations, \u201cthe requesting spouse elects the application of this section,\u201d to \u201cthe requesting spouse requests relief\u201d consistent with the discussion earlier in this preamble. The definition of \u201cunderstatement\u201d in current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(b) is removed as the definition will now be located in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(7). Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(c) is redesignated as proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(b), adds additional facts and circumstances from Rev. Proc. 2013-34 to consider in determining whether a requesting spouse had reason to know, adds a knowledge rule to correspond to proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) as discussed earlier in this preamble, and clarifies, consistent with the changes made in Rev. Proc. 2013-34, that abuse or financial control by the nonrequesting spouse will result in the requesting spouse being treated as not having knowledge or reason to know of the items giving rise to the understatement. Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(d) is redesignated as proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(c) and provides an updated cross-reference to the most recent revenue procedure providing the criteria to be used in determining equitable relief, Rev. Proc. 2013-34. Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(e)(1) is redesignated as proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(d)(1) and the word \u201conly\u201d is removed to clarify the rule. Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(e)(2) is redesignated as proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(d)(2) and the example is updated to use more current years and dates, but otherwise no substantive changes were made.\nAmong other clarifying changes, these regulations propose to clarify the difference between full and partial relief under section 6015(c) and to reflect case law regarding the tax benefit rule of section 6015(d)(3)(B), including new examples.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(a) provides a revised heading and a cross-reference to the definition of deficiency in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(8).\nSection 6015(g)(3) provides that no credit or refund is allowed as a result of an allocation of a deficiency under section 6015(c). Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(1) clarifies the existing regulations and provides that whether relief is available to a requesting spouse under section 6015(c) is not dependent on the availability of credit or refund. Thus, if a requesting spouse is eligible to allocate the entire deficiency to the nonrequesting spouse, the requesting spouse has received full relief even if the requesting spouse made payments on the deficiency and is not entitled to a refund of those payments because of section 6015(g)(3). Further, the requesting spouse is not eligible to be considered for relief (and a refund) under section 6015(f) for the amount of any paid liability because a prerequisite to relief under section 6015(f) is the unavailability of relief under section 6015(b) or (c) and the spouse received full relief under section 6015(c). A requesting spouse may still be considered for relief (and a refund) under section 6015(b) for the amount of any paid liability. If a requesting spouse only receives partial relief (for example, some part of the deficiency is still allocated to the requesting spouse), then the requesting spouse may be considered for relief under section 6015(f) for the portion of the deficiency allocable to the requesting spouse. A new sentence is added to \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2)(i) to add a knowledge rule to correspond to proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n), which, as discussed earlier in this preamble, provides an attribution rule for the portion of a deficiency relating to the disallowance or reduction of an otherwise valid item solely due to the increase in AGI as a result of the disallowance of an erroneous item.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(i) illustrates that, under the tax benefit rule of section 6015(d)(3)(B), the amount of an erroneous item allocated to a requesting spouse may increase or decrease depending upon the tax benefit to the requesting and nonrequesting spouses. Thus, these proposed regulations adopt the holding of Hopkins v. Commissioner, 121 T.C. 73 (2003) (a requesting spouse was entitled to relief from her own item under the tax benefit rule of section 6015(d)(3)(B) because the nonrequesting spouse was the only person who reported income on the returns, and therefore, the only one who received any tax benefit from the item). In addition, five new examples have been added to \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(5) to provide additional guidance on the application of the tax benefit rule of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(i). Example 7 demonstrates the application of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(i)(B), which provides that each spouse's hypothetical separate taxable income may need to be determined to properly apply the tax benefit rule. Example 8 demonstrates the holding in Hopkins by showing that a requesting spouse's allocated portion of a deficiency will be decreased when the nonrequesting spouse receives a tax benefit from the item. Example 9 demonstrates the allocation of a liability when the erroneous item is a loss from a jointly-owned investment. Example 10 demonstrates how the tax benefit rule works when the erroneous item is a loss from a jointly-owned investment. In addition, Example 11 is added to demonstrate how the rule in \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(ii) regarding fraud works.\nSection 1.6015-3(c)(2)(iv) currently provides that the requesting spouse's joint ownership (with the nonrequesting spouse) of the property that resulted in the erroneous item is a factor that may be relied upon in demonstrating that the requesting spouse had actual knowledge of the item. Under the tax benefit rule of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(i), as stated earlier in this preamble, a requesting spouse can be relieved of liability for the requesting spouse's own erroneous item if the item is otherwise allocable in full or in part to the nonrequesting spouse under section 6015(d). Therefore, proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2)(iv) revises the current regulations to clarify that the requesting spouse's separate ownership of the erroneous item is also a factor that may be relied upon in demonstrating that the requesting spouse had actual knowledge of the item. Current \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2)(v) is redesignated as proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2)(vi) and the discussion of community property in current \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(iv) is removed and is now located in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2)(v). Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(vi) is revised to clarify, consistent with the changes made in Rev. Proc. 2013-34, that abuse or financial control by the nonrequesting spouse will result in the requesting spouse being treated as not having actual knowledge of the items giving rise to the understatement.\nNo substantive changes are proposed to current \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. The proposed amendments update references and provide a clarifying change consistent with proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(1), which provides the rule that refunds are not allowed under section 6015(c).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-4(a) was revised to provide a cross-reference to the definitions of unpaid tax, understatement, and deficiency in proposed \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(6), (h)(7), and (h)(8).\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-4(b) was revised to provide a cross-reference to proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(3). The paragraph also clarifies that if only partial relief is available under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, then relief may be considered under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 for the portion of the deficiency for which the requesting spouse remains liable.\nProposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-4(c) replaces the citation to Rev. Proc. 2000-15 (2000-1 CB 447) with Rev. Proc. 2013-34, which revised the factors used in determining if the requesting spouse is eligible for equitable relief under section 6015(f).\nA notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-132251-11) was published in the Federal Register (78 FR 49242) on August 13, 2013. Those regulations proposed changes to \u00a7\u20091.6015-5 to remove the two-year deadline for taxpayers to file requests for equitable relief under section 6015(f), and other changes related to the time and manner for requesting relief. These proposed regulations revise the notice of proposed rulemaking published on August 13, 2013 to add an effective date provision.\nThe changes in proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-6 are intended to update the current regulations to reflect existing practice and guidance. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-6(a)(1) replaces the term \u201celection\u201d under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 or \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 with \u201crequest for relief.\u201d Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-6(a)(2) includes a reference to Rev. Proc. 2003-19 (2003-1 CB 371), which provides guidance on a nonrequesting spouse's right to appeal a preliminary determination to IRS Appeals.\nSection 1.6015-7 was revised to reflect the amendments to section 6015(e) in the 2006 Act that, as noted earlier in this preamble, conferred jurisdiction on the United States Tax Court to review the IRS's denial of relief in cases in which taxpayers requested equitable relief under section 6015(f), without regard to whether the IRS has determined a deficiency. Prior to these amendments, the United States Tax Court lacked jurisdiction to review section 6015(f) determinations if no deficiency had been determined. The amendments apply to any liability for tax that arose on or after December 20, 2006, and any liability for tax that arose before December 20, 2006, but remained unpaid as of that date. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.6015-7(c) revises the current regulations to reflect the changes to the restrictions on collection and corresponding tolling of the collection statute under section 6502. On versions of the Form 8857 dated before June 2007 a requesting spouse could request relief under just one subsection of section 6015. For claims for relief that were made under sections 6015(b) and (c) (and the corresponding \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2 and 1.6015-3), the IRS is prohibited from collecting against the requesting spouse (and the collection statute is tolled) beginning on the date the claim is filed. For requests for relief made solely under section 6015(f) (and the corresponding \u00a7\u20091.6015-4), the IRS is prohibited from collecting against the requesting spouse (and the collection statute is tolled) only for liabilities arising on or after December 20, 2006, or liabilities arising before December 20, 2006, but remaining unpaid as of that date. For requests for relief made solely under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the restrictions on collection and tolling of the collection statute do not start until December 20, 2006, for any requests filed before that date, assuming the tax remained unpaid as of that date. The restrictions on collection and tolling of the collection statute start as of the date the request is filed for requests filed on or after December 20, 2006.\n8. Section 1.66-4\nThe only changes to the existing regulations under section 66 are non-substantive changes. Proposed \u00a7\u20091.66-4(a)(3) and (b) replace the citation to Rev. Proc. 2000-15 with Rev. Proc. 2013-34, which revised the factors used in determining whether a requesting spouse is eligible for equitable relief under section 66(c).\n9. Effective and Applicability Dates\nAdditionally, the effective and applicability date sections in the regulations under section 66 and section 6015 are reorganized to move the effective and applicability date sections within the specific regulation to which the dates apply. The separate effective date sections under \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.66-5 and 1.6015-9 are removed.\nCertain IRS regulations, including this one, are exempt from the requirements of Executive Order 12866, as supplemented and reaffirmed by Executive Order 13563. Therefore, a regulatory impact assessment is not required. It has also been determined that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply to these regulations. In addition, because the regulations do not impose a collection of information on small entities, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) does not apply. Accordingly, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6). Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the Code, this notice of proposed rulemaking has been submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration for comment on its impact on small business.\nBefore these proposed regulations are adopted as final regulations, consideration will be given to any comments that are submitted timely to the IRS as prescribed in the preamble under the \u201cAddresses\u201d heading. Treasury and the IRS request comments on all aspects of the proposed regulations. All comments will be available at www.regulations.gov or upon request. A public hearing will be scheduled if requested in writing by any person that timely submits written comments. If a public hearing is scheduled, notice of the date, time, and place for the public hearing will be published in the Federal Register.\nThe principal author of these regulations is Nancy Rose of the Office of the Associate Chief Counsel (Procedure and Administration).\nPART 1\u2014INCOME TAXES Paragraph 1.

Equitable relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 is available only to a requesting spouse who fails to qualify for relief under \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-2 and 1.6015-3.\n(e) Res judicata and collateral estoppel\u2014(1) In general. A requesting spouse is barred from relief from joint and several liability under section 6015 by res judicata for any tax year for which a court of competent jurisdiction has rendered a final decision on the requesting spouse's tax liability if relief under section 6015 was at issue in the prior proceeding, or if the requesting spouse meaningfully participated in that proceeding and could have raised the issue of relief under section 6015.\n(2) Situations in which relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 will not be considered to have been at issue in the prior proceeding. Relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 will not be considered to have been at issue in a prior proceeding if the requesting spouse only raised the issue of relief under section 6015 in general and did not specify under which subsection relief was being requested, and the requesting spouse was not eligible for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 during the prior proceeding because the requesting spouse was not divorced, widowed, or legally separated, or had been a member of the same household as the nonrequesting spouse during the prior 12 months.\n(3) Meaningful participation. A requesting spouse meaningfully participated in the prior proceeding if the requesting spouse was involved in the proceeding so that the requesting spouse could have raised the issue of relief under section 6015 in that proceeding. Meaningful participation is a facts and circumstances determination. Absent abuse as set forth in paragraph (i) of this section, the following is a nonexclusive list of acts to be considered in making the facts and circumstances determination: Whether the requesting spouse participated in the IRS Appeals process while the prior proceeding was docketed; whether the requesting spouse participated in pretrial meetings; whether the requesting spouse participated in discovery; whether the requesting spouse participated in settlement negotiations; whether the requesting spouse signed court documents, such as a petition, a stipulation of facts, motions, briefs, or any other documents; whether the requesting spouse participated at trial (for example, the requesting spouse was present or testified at the prior proceeding); and whether the requesting spouse was represented by counsel in the prior proceeding. No one act necessarily determines the outcome. The degree of importance of each act varies depending on the requesting spouse's facts and circumstances.\n(i) Notwithstanding the fact that a requesting spouse performed any of the acts listed in paragraph (e)(3) of this section in the prior proceeding, the requesting spouse will not be considered to have meaningfully participated in the prior proceeding if the requesting spouse establishes that the requesting spouse performed the acts because the nonrequesting spouse abused (as described in paragraph (o) of this section) or maintained control over the requesting spouse, and the requesting spouse did not challenge the nonrequesting spouse for fear of the nonrequesting spouse's retaliation.\n(ii) A requesting spouse did not meaningfully participate in a prior proceeding if, due to the effective date of section 6015, relief under section 6015 was not available in that proceeding.\n(iii) In a case petitioned from a statutory notice of deficiency under section 6213, the fact that the requesting spouse did not have the ability to effectively contest the underlying deficiency is irrelevant for purposes of determining whether the requesting spouse meaningfully participated in the court proceeding for purposes of paragraph (e)(1) of this section.\n(4) Examples. The following examples illustrate the rules of this paragraph (e):\nIn a prior court proceeding involving a petition from a notice of deficiency related to a joint income tax return, H and W were still married and filed a timely joint petition to the United States Tax Court. The petition stated that W was entitled to relief under section 6015 without specifying under which subsection she was requesting relief. Before trial, H negotiates with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney and settles the case. W did not meaningfully participate. A stipulated decision was entered that did not mention relief under section 6015. One year later W files a request for relief under section 6015. While W did not meaningfully participate in the prior court proceeding, because relief under section 6015 was at issue in that case, res judicata applies except with respect to relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. Because W did not specify that she was requesting relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, and W was not eligible to request relief under that section because she was still married to the nonrequesting spouse throughout the court proceeding, relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 is not considered to have been at issue in that case. Thus, W is not barred by res judicata from raising relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 in a later case. However, any later claim from W requesting relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 would be barred by res judicata.\nSame facts as in Example 1 of this paragraph (e)(4) except that H and W are divorced at the time the petition was filed. Because W was eligible to request relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 as she was divorced from H, relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 is considered to be at issue in the prior court proceeding and W is barred by res judicata from raising relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 in a later case. Thus, any later claim from W requesting relief under any subsection of section 6015 would be barred by res judicata.\nThe IRS issued a notice of deficiency to H and W determining a deficiency on H and W's joint income tax return based on H's Schedule C business. H and W timely filed a petition in the United States Tax Court. W signed the petition and numerous other documents, participated in discussions regarding the case with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney, and ultimately agreed to a settlement of the case. W could have raised any issue, but W did not have any access to H's records regarding his Schedule C business, over which H maintained exclusive control. Relief under section 6015 was never raised in the court proceeding. If W were to later file a request for relief under section 6015, W's claim would be barred by res judicata. Considering these facts and circumstances, W meaningfully participated in the prior court proceeding regarding the deficiency. The fact that W could not have effectively contested the underlying deficiency because she had no access to H's Schedule C records is not relevant to the determination of whether W meaningfully participated. Instead the meaningful participation exception looks to W's involvement in the prior court proceeding and her ability to raise relief under section 6015 as a defense.\nSame facts as Example 3 of this paragraph (e)(4), except that W's participation in discussions with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney were clearly controlled by H, and W was fearful of H when she agreed to settle the case. In this situation, her involvement in the prior proceeding would not be considered meaningful participation because W was able to establish that H maintained control over her and that she did not challenge H for fear of the H's retaliation. If W were to later file a request for relief under section 6015, her claim would not be barred by res judicata.\nIn March 2014, the IRS issued a notice of deficiency to H and W determining a deficiency on H and W's joint income tax return for tax year 2011. H and W timely filed a pro se petition in the United States Tax Court for redetermination of the deficiency. W signed the petition, but otherwise, H handled the entire litigation, from discussing the case with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney to agreeing to a settlement of the case. Relief under section 6015 was never raised. W signed the decision document that H had agreed to with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney. If W were to later file a claim requesting relief under section 6015, W's claim would not be barred by res judicata. Considering these facts and circumstances, W's involvement in the prior court proceeding regarding the deficiency did not rise to the level of meaningful participation.\nSame facts as in Example 5 of this paragraph (e)(4) except that W also participated in settlement negotiations with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney that resulted in the decision document entered in the case. Considering these facts and circumstances\u2014signing the petition and the decision document, along with participating in the negotiations that led to the settlement reflected in the decision document\u2014W meaningfully participated in the prior court proceeding regarding the deficiency because W could have raised relief under section 6015. Any later claim from W requesting relief under section 6015 would be barred by res judicata.\nIn a prior court proceeding involving a petition from a notice of deficiency, H and W hired counsel, C, to represent them in the United States Tax Court. W agreed to C's representation, but otherwise, only H met and communicated with C about the case. C signed and filed the petition, discussed the case with the IRS Chief Counsel attorney, and agreed to a settlement of the case after discussing it with H. Relief under section 6015 was never raised. C signed the decision document on behalf of H and W. If W were to later file a claim requesting relief under section 6015, W's claim would not be barred by res judicata. Even though W was represented by counsel in the prior court proceeding regarding the deficiency, considering all the facts and circumstances, W's involvement in the prior court proceeding did not rise to the level of meaningful participation.\nIn a prior court proceeding involving a petition from a notice of deficiency, H did not sign the petition or other court documents, participate in the Appeals or Counsel settlement negotiations, attend pretrial meetings, or hire separate counsel. H did, however, attend the trial and testify. Considering these facts and circumstances, H's participation in the trial is sufficient to establish that H meaningfully participated in the prior court proceeding regarding the deficiency because H's participation provided H with a definite opportunity to raise relief under section 6015 in that proceeding. Any later claim from H requesting relief under section 6015 would be barred by res judicata.\nThe IRS issued a joint notice of deficiency to H and W determining a deficiency on H and W's joint income tax return based on H's Schedule C business. Only W timely filed a petition in the United States Tax Court. W conceded the deficiency shortly before trial and signed a decision document. W did not raise relief under section 6015. If W were to later file a claim requesting relief under section 6015, W's claim would be barred by res judicata. Because W was the only petitioner in the prior court proceeding, W's participation in that proceeding was meaningful participation.\n(5) Collateral estoppel. Any final decisions rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction regarding issues relevant to section 6015 are conclusive, and the requesting spouse may be collaterally estopped from relitigating those issues.\n(h) Definitions\u2014(1) Requesting spouse. A requesting spouse is an individual who filed a joint income tax return and requests relief from Federal income tax liability arising from that return under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4.\n(5) Request for relief. A qualifying request under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 is the first timely request for relief from joint and several liability for the tax year for which relief is sought. A qualifying request also includes a requesting spouse's second request for relief from joint and several liability for the same tax year under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 when the additional qualifications of paragraphs (h)(5)(i) and (ii) of this section are met\u2014\n(i) The requesting spouse did not qualify for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 at the time of the first request solely because the qualifications of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(a) were not satisfied; and\n(ii) At the time of the second request, the qualifications for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(a) were satisfied.\n(6) Unpaid tax and underpayment. Unpaid tax and underpayment for purposes of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 means the balance due shown on the joint return, reduced by the tax paid with the joint return. The balance due shown on the joint return is determined after application of the credits for tax withheld under section 31, any amounts paid as estimated income tax, any amounts paid with an extension of time to file, or any other credits applied against the total tax reported on the return. Tax paid with the joint return includes a check or money order remitted with the return or Form 1040-V, \u201cPayment Voucher,\u201d or payment by direct debit, credit card, or other commercially acceptable means under section 6311. If the joint return is filed on or before the last day prescribed for filing under section 6072 (determined without regard to any extension of time to file under section 6081), the tax paid with the joint return includes any tax paid on or before the last day prescribed for payment under section 6151. If the joint return is filed after the last day prescribed for filing, the tax paid with the joint return includes any tax paid on or before the date the joint return is filed. A requesting spouse is not entitled to be considered for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 for any tax paid with the joint return. If the tax paid with the joint return completely satisfies the balance due shown on the return, then there is no unpaid tax for purposes of \u00a7\u20091.6015-4.\n(7) Understatement. The term understatement means the excess of the amount of tax required to be shown on the return for the taxable year over the amount of the tax imposed which is shown on the return, reduced by any rebate (within the meaning of section 6211(b)(2)).\n(8) Deficiency. The term deficiency has the same meaning given to that term in section 6211 and \u00a7\u2009301.6211-1 of this chapter.\n(k) Credit or refund\u2014(1) In general. Except as provided in paragraphs (k)(2) through (5) of this section, a requesting spouse who is eligible for relief can receive a credit or refund of payments made to satisfy the joint income tax liability, whether the liability resulted from an understatement or an underpayment.\n(2) No credit or refund allowed under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. A requesting spouse is not entitled to a credit or refund of any payments made on the joint income tax liability as a result of allocating the deficiency under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. See section 6015(g)(3) and \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(1).\n(3) No circumvention of \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(2) and 1.6015-3(c)(1). Section 1.6015-4 may not be used to circumvent the limitation of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(1) (such as, no refunds under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3). Therefore, relief is not available under this section to obtain a credit or refund of liabilities already paid, for which the requesting spouse would otherwise qualify for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. For purposes of determining whether the requesting spouse qualifies for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, the fact that a refund was barred by section 6015(g)(2) and paragraph (k)(2) of this section does not mean that the requesting spouse did not receive full relief. A requesting spouse is entitled to full relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 if the requesting spouse was eligible to allocate the deficiency in full to the nonrequesting spouse.\n(4) Limitations on credit or refund. The availability of credit or refund is subject to the limitations provided by sections 6511 and 6512(b). Generally the filing of Form 8857, \u201cRequest for Innocent Spouse Relief,\u201d will be treated as the filing of a claim for credit or refund even if the requesting spouse does not specifically request a credit or refund. The amount allowable as a credit or refund, assuming the requesting spouse is eligible for relief, includes payments made after the filing of the Form 8857, as well as payments made within the applicable look-back period provided by section 6511(b).\n(5) Requesting spouse limited to credit or refund of payments made by the requesting spouse. A requesting spouse is only eligible for a credit or refund of payments to the extent the requesting spouse establishes that he or she provided the funds used to make the payment for which he or she seeks a credit or refund. Thus, a requesting spouse is not eligible for a credit or refund of payments made by the nonrequesting spouse. A requesting spouse is also generally not eligible for a credit or refund of joint payments made with the nonrequesting spouse. A requesting spouse, however, may be eligible for a credit or refund of the requesting spouse's portion of an overpayment from a joint return filed with the nonrequesting spouse that was offset under section 6402 to the spouses' joint income tax liability, to the extent that the requesting spouse can establish his or her contribution to the overpayment.\n(m) Penalties and interest. Generally, a spouse who is entitled to relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 is also entitled to relief from related penalties, additions to tax, additional amounts, and interest (collectively, penalties and interest). Penalties and interest, however, are not separate erroneous items (as defined in paragraph (h)(4) of this section) from which a requesting spouse can be relieved separate from the tax. Rather relief from penalties and interest related to an understatement or deficiency will generally be determined based on the proportion of the total erroneous items from which the requesting spouse is relieved. For penalties that relate to a particular erroneous item, see \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(4)(iv)(B). Penalties and interest on an underpayment are also not separate items from which a requesting spouse may obtain relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. Relief from penalties and interest on the underpayment will be determined based on the amount of relief from the underpayment to which the requesting spouse is entitled. If the underlying tax liability (whether an assessed deficiency or an underpayment) was paid in full after the joint return was filed but penalties and interest remain unpaid, the requesting spouse may be relieved from the penalties and interest if the requesting spouse is entitled to relief from the underlying tax. The fact that the requesting spouse is entitled to relief from the underlying tax but is not entitled to a refund because of \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k) does not prevent the requesting spouse from being relieved from liability for the penalties and interest.\n(n) Attribution of understatement or deficiency resulting from an increase to adjusted gross income\u2014(1) In general. Any portion of an understatement or deficiency relating to the disallowance of an item (or increase to an amount of tax) separately listed on an individual income tax return solely due to the increase of adjusted gross income (or modified adjusted gross income or other similar phase-out thresholds) as a result of an erroneous item solely attributable to the nonrequesting spouse will also be attributable to the nonrequesting spouse unless the evidence shows that a different result is appropriate. If the increase to adjusted gross income is the result of an erroneous item(s) of both the requesting and nonrequesting spouses, the item disallowed (or increased tax) due to the increase to adjusted gross income will be attributable to the requesting spouse in the same ratio as the amount of the item or items attributable to the requesting spouse over the total amount of the items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income.\n(2) Examples. The following examples illustrate the rules of this paragraph (n):\nH and W file a joint Federal income tax return. After applying withholding credits there is a tax liability of $500. Based on the earned income reported on the return and the number of qualifying children, H and W are entitled to an Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) in the amount of $1,500. The EITC satisfies the $500 in tax due and H and W receive a refund in the amount of $1,000. Later the IRS concludes that H had additional unreported income, which increased the tax liability on the return to $1,000 and resulted in H and W's EITC being reduced to zero due to their adjusted gross income exceeding the maximum amount. The IRS determines a deficiency in the amount of $2,000\u2014$1,500 of which relates to the EITC and $500 of which relates to H's erroneous item\u2014the omitted income. If W requests relief under section 6015, the entire $2,000 deficiency is attributable to H because the EITC was disallowed solely due to the increase of adjusted gross income as a result of H's omitted income. W satisfies the attribution factor of \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(a)(2) and the threshold condition in section 4.01(7) of Rev. Proc. 2013-34 with respect to the entire deficiency. Under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(4)(ii), the portion of the deficiency related to the disallowance of the EITC is initially allocated to H.\nH and W file a joint Federal income tax return reporting a total tax liability of $22,000. Later the IRS concludes that H had additional unreported income in the amount of $20,000, which increased H and W's adjusted gross income and their alternative minimum taxable income. As a result, H and W now owe the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). The IRS determines a deficiency in the amount of $5,250\u2014$250 of which relates to H and W's AMT liability as determined under section 55 and $5,000 of which relates to the increase in H and W's section 1 income tax liability. If W requests relief under section 6015, the entire $5,250 deficiency is attributable to H because H and W owe the AMT solely due to H's erroneous item\u2014the omitted income. W satisfies the attribution factor of \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(a)(2) and the threshold condition in section 4.01(7) of Rev. Proc. 2013-34 with respect to the entire deficiency. Under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(4)(ii), the portion of the deficiency related to the AMT is initially allocated to H.\nH and W file a joint Federal income tax return reporting itemized deductions on Schedule A, \u201cItemized Deductions,\u201d in the amount of $50,000. Later the IRS concludes that $10,000 of W's expenses reported on her Schedule C, \u201cProfit or Loss From Business,\u201d were not allowable, which increased H and W's adjusted gross income. As a result, H and W's itemized expenses are reduced to $45,000 as their adjusted gross income exceeded the phase-out amount. The IRS determines a deficiency in the amount of $5,000. If H requests relief under section 6015, the entire $5,000 deficiency is attributable to W because the itemized deductions were reduced solely due to the increase of adjusted gross income as a result of W's erroneous item\u2014the Schedule C expenses. H satisfies the attribution factor of \u00a7\u20091.6015-2(a)(2) and the threshold condition in section 4.01(7) of Rev. Proc. 2013-34 with respect to the entire deficiency. Under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(d)(2)(iv), the portion of the deficiency related to the disallowance of the Schedule A deductions is initially allocated to W.\nH and W file a joint Federal income tax return reporting itemized deductions on Schedule A in the amount of $50,000. Later the IRS concludes that H had additional unreported income in the amount of $4,000 and W had additional unreported income in the amount of $6,000, which increased H and W's adjusted gross income. As a result, H and W's itemized expenses are reduced to $45,000 as their adjusted gross income exceeded the phase-out amount. The IRS determines a deficiency in the amount of $6,000\u2014$1,500 of which relates to H's erroneous item, $2,500 of which relates to W's erroneous item, and $2,000 of which relates to the reduced itemized deductions. Assuming the conditions for relief under section 6015 are otherwise satisfied, the $2,500 deficiency from W's omitted income is attributable to W and the $1,500 deficiency from H's omitted income is attributable to H. Because the increase to adjusted gross income as a result of both H and W's erroneous items reduced the itemized deductions, the portion of the deficiency related to the disallowed itemized deductions is partially attributable to both H and W. Of the $2,000 deficiency from the disallowed itemized deductions, $800 is attributable to H because 40 percent ($4,000/$10,000) of the items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income are attributable to H, and $1,200 is attributable to W because 60 percent ($6,000/$10,000) of the items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income are attributable to W. If both H and W requested relief the most H could be relieved from is $3700, the amount attributable to W ($2500 + $1200), and the most W could be relieved from is $2300, the amount attributable to H ($1500 + $800).\n(o) Abuse by the nonrequesting spouse. Abuse comes in many forms and can include physical, psychological, sexual, or emotional abuse, including efforts to control, isolate, humiliate, and intimidate the requesting spouse, or to undermine the requesting spouse's ability to reason independently and be able to do what is required under the tax laws. All the facts and circumstances are considered in determining whether a requesting spouse was abused. The impact of a nonrequesting spouse's alcohol or drug abuse is also considered in determining whether a requesting spouse was abused. Depending on the facts and circumstances, abuse of the requesting spouse's child or other family member living in the household may constitute abuse of the requesting spouse.\n(p) Effective/applicability date. This section will be applicable on the date of publication of a Treasury decision adopting these rules as final regulations in the Federal Register.\nPar. 9. Section 1.6015-2 is amended by: 1. Paragraph (a) introductory text is revised. 2. Paragraph (b) is removed. 3. Paragraphs (c), (d), and (e) are redesignated as paragraphs (b), (c), and (d). 4. Newly designated paragraph (b) is revised. 5. The last sentence of newly designated paragraph (c) is revised. 6. Newly designated paragraph (d) is revised. 7. Paragraph (e) is added.\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-2 Relief from liability applicable to all qualifying joint filers.\n(a) In general. A requesting spouse may be relieved from joint and several liability for tax (including related additions to tax, additional amounts, penalties, and interest) from an understatement for a taxable year under this section if the requesting spouse requests relief in accordance with \u00a7\u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(5) and 1.6015-5, and\u2014\n(b) Knowledge or reason to know. A requesting spouse has knowledge or reason to know of an understatement if he or she actually knew of the understatement, or if a reasonable person in similar circumstances would have known of the understatement. For rules relating to a requesting spouse's actual knowledge, see \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(2). All of the facts and circumstances are considered in determining whether a requesting spouse had reason to know of an understatement. The facts and circumstances that are considered include, but are not limited to, the nature of the erroneous item and the amount of the erroneous item relative to other items; any deceit or evasiveness of the nonrequesting spouse; the couple's financial situation; the requesting spouse's educational background and business experience; the extent of the requesting spouse's participation in the activity that resulted in the erroneous item; the requesting spouse's involvement in business or household financial matters; whether the requesting spouse failed to inquire, at or before the time the return was signed, about items on the return or omitted from the return that a reasonable person would question; any lavish or unusual expenditures compared with past spending levels; and whether the erroneous item represented a departure from a recurring pattern reflected in prior years' returns (for example, omitted income from an investment regularly reported on prior years' returns). A requesting spouse has knowledge or reason to know of the portion of an understatement related to an item attributable to the nonrequesting spouse under \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) if the requesting spouse knows or has reason to know of the nonrequesting spouse's erroneous item or items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income. Depending on the facts and circumstances, if the requesting spouse was abused by the nonrequesting spouse (as described in \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(o)), or the nonrequesting spouse maintained control of the household finances by restricting the requesting spouse's access to financial information, and because of the abuse or financial control, the requesting spouse was not able to challenge the treatment of any items on the joint return for fear of the nonrequesting spouse's retaliation, the requesting spouse will be treated as not having knowledge or reason to know of the items giving rise to the understatement. If, however, the requesting spouse involuntarily executed the return, the requesting spouse may choose to establish that the return was signed under duress. In such a case, \u00a7\u20091.6013-4(d) applies.\n(c) * * * For guidance concerning the criteria to be used in determining whether it is inequitable to hold a requesting spouse jointly and severally liable under this section, see Rev. Proc. 2013-34 (2013-2 CB 397), or other guidance published by the Treasury and IRS (see \u00a7\u2009601.601(d)(2) of this chapter).\n(d) Partial relief\u2014(1) In general. If a requesting spouse had no knowledge or reason to know of a portion of an erroneous item, the requesting spouse may be relieved of the liability attributable to that portion of that item, if all other requirements are met with respect to that portion.\n(2) Example. The following example illustrates the rules of this paragraph (d):\nH and W are married and file their 2014 joint income tax return in March 2015. In April 2016, H is convicted of embezzling $2 million from his employer during 2014. H kept all of his embezzlement income in an individual bank account, and he used most of the funds to support his gambling habit. H and W had a joint bank account into which H and W deposited all of their reported income. Each month during 2014, H transferred an additional $10,000 from the individual account to H and W's joint bank account. Although H paid the household expenses using this joint account, W regularly received the bank statements relating to the account. W did not know or have reason to know of H's embezzling activities. W did, however, know or have reason to know of $120,000 of the $2 million of H's embezzlement income at the time she signed the joint return because that amount passed through the couple's joint bank account and she regularly received bank statements showing the monthly deposits from H's individual account. Therefore, W may be relieved of the liability arising from $1,880,000 of the unreported embezzlement income, but she may not be relieved of the liability for the deficiency arising from $120,000 of the unreported embezzlement income of which she knew and had reason to know.\n(e) Effective/applicability date. This section will be applicable on the date of publication of a Treasury decision adopting these rules as final regulations in the Federal Register.\nPar. 10. Section 1.6015-3 is amended by: 1. The paragraph heading and first sentence of paragraph (a) are revised. 2. Paragraphs (c)(1) and (c)(2)(iv) are revised. 3. A sentence is added at the end of paragraph (c)(2)(i). 4. Paragraph (c)(2)(v) is redesignated as paragraph (c)(2)(vi) and paragraph (c)(2)(v) is added. 5. Newly redesignated paragraph (c)(2)(vi) is revised. 6. Paragraphs (d)(2)(i) and (d)(5) introductory text are revised. 7. In paragraph (d)(5), Examples 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 are added. 8. Paragraph (e) is added.\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-3 Allocation of deficiency for individuals who are no longer married, are legally separated, or are not members of the same household.\n(a) Allocation of deficiency. A requesting spouse may allocate a deficiency (as defined in \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(8)) if, as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, the requesting spouse is divorced, widowed, or legally separated, or has not been a member of the same household as the nonrequesting spouse at any time during the 12-month period ending on the date the request for relief is filed. * * *\n(c) * * * (1) No refunds. Although a requesting spouse may be eligible to allocate the deficiency to the nonrequesting spouse, refunds are not authorized under this section. Refunds of paid liabilities for which a requesting spouse was entitled to allocate the deficiency under this section may be considered under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 but not under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4. See \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(3).\n(2) * * * (i) * * * A requesting spouse has actual knowledge of the portion of an understatement related to an item attributable to the nonrequesting spouse under \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(n) and allocable to the nonrequesting spouse under paragraph (d) of this section if the requesting spouse has actual knowledge of the nonrequesting spouse's erroneous item or items that resulted in the increase to adjusted gross income.\n(iv) Factors supporting actual knowledge. To demonstrate that a requesting spouse had actual knowledge of an erroneous item at the time the return was signed, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will consider all the facts and circumstances, including but not limited to, whether the requesting spouse made a deliberate effort to avoid learning about the item to be shielded from liability; whether the erroneous item would have been allocable to the requesting spouse but for the tax benefit rule in paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this section; and whether the requesting spouse and the nonrequesting spouse jointly owned the property that resulted in the erroneous item. These factors, together with all other facts and circumstances, may demonstrate that the requesting spouse had actual knowledge of the item. If the requesting spouse had actual knowledge of an erroneous item, the portion of the deficiency with respect to that item will not be allocated to the nonrequesting spouse.\n(v) Actual knowledge and community property. A requesting spouse will not be considered to have had an ownership interest in an item based solely on the operation of community property law. Rather, a requesting spouse who resided in a community property state at the time the return was signed will be considered to have had an ownership interest in an item only if the requesting spouse's name appeared on the ownership documents, or there otherwise is an indication that the requesting spouse asserted dominion and control over the item. For example, assume H and W live in State A, a community property state. After their marriage, H opens a bank account in his name. Under the operation of the community property laws of State A, W owns one-half of the bank account. Assuming there is no other indication that she asserted dominion and control over the item, W does not have an ownership interest in the account for purposes of this paragraph (c)(2)(v) because she does not hold the account in her name.\n(vi) Abuse exception. Depending on the facts and circumstances, if the requesting spouse was abused by the nonrequesting spouse (as described in \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(o)), or the nonrequesting spouse maintained control of the household finances by restricting the requesting spouse's access to financial information, and because of the abuse or financial control, the requesting spouse was not able to challenge the treatment of any items on the joint return for fear of the nonrequesting spouse's retaliation, the limitation on the requesting spouse's ability to allocate the deficiency because of actual knowledge will not apply. The requesting spouse will be treated as not having knowledge of the items giving rise to the deficiency. If, however, the requesting spouse involuntarily executed the return, the requesting spouse may choose to establish that the return was signed under duress. In such a case, \u00a7\u20091.6013-4(d) applies.\n(i) Benefit on the return\u2014(A) In general. An erroneous item that would otherwise be allocated to one spouse is allocated to the second spouse to the extent that the second spouse received a tax benefit on the joint return and the first spouse did not receive a tax benefit. An erroneous item under this paragraph can be allocated to a requesting spouse or a nonrequesting spouse, but only a spouse who requests relief under this section may allocate the deficiency. A spouse who does not request relief under section 6015 remains fully liable for the deficiency. An allocation from a requesting spouse to a nonrequesting spouse reduces the amount for which a requesting spouse remains liable while an allocation from a nonrequesting spouse to a requesting spouse increases the amount for which a requesting spouse remains liable.\n(B) Calculating separate taxable income and tax due. Under section 6015(d)(3)(A), the items giving rise to the deficiency must be allocated to each spouse in the same manner as the items would have been allocated if the spouses had filed separate returns. In determining whether a spouse received a tax benefit from the item, it may be necessary to calculate each spouse's hypothetical separate return taxable income, determined without regard to the erroneous items, and taking into consideration adjusted gross income, allowable deductions and losses, and allowable credits against tax.\n(5) Examples. The following examples illustrate the rules of this paragraph (d). In each example, assume that the requesting spouse or spouses qualify to allocate the deficiency, that a request under section 6015 was timely made, and that the deficiency remains unpaid. In addition, unless otherwise stated, assume that neither spouse actually knew of the erroneous items allocable to the other spouse. The examples are as follows:\nCalculation of tax benefit based on taxable income. (i) On their joint Federal income tax return for tax year 2009, H reports $60,000 of wage income; W reports $25,000 of wage income; and H and W report joint interest income of $2,000 and joint ordinary income from investments in the amount of $6,000. In addition, H and W properly deduct $30,000 for their two personal exemptions and itemized deductions, and W erroneously reports a loss from her separate investment in a partnership in the amount of $20,000. On May 3, 2012, a $5,000 deficiency is assessed with respect to their 2009 joint return. W dies in November 2012. H requests innocent spouse relief. The deficiency on the joint return results from a disallowance of all of W's $20,000 loss (which is initially allocable to W).\n(ii) After taking all sources of income and all allowable deductions into consideration, H's separate taxable income is $49,000 and W's separate taxable income is $14,000, calculated as follows:\nH W Wages $60,000 $25,000 Interest Income 1,000 1,000 Investment Income 3,000 3,000 Adj. Gross Income 64,000 29,000 Exemptions and Deductions (15,000) (15,000) Taxable Income 49,000 14,000 W's Disallowed Loss (20,000) Tax Benefit Not Used by W (6,000) Tax Benefit to W (14,000) Tax Benefit to H (6,000)\n(iii) As W only used $14,000 of her $20,000 loss from her separate investment in a partnership to offset her separate taxable income, H benefited from the other $6,000 of the disallowed loss used to offset his separate taxable income. Therefore, $14,000 of the disallowed $20,000 loss is allocable to W (7/10) and $6,000 of the disallowed loss is allocable to H (3/10). H's liability is limited to $1,500 (3/10 of the $5,000 deficiency).\nNonrequesting spouse receives a benefit on the joint return from the requesting spouse's erroneous item. (i) On their joint Federal income tax return for tax year 2008, W reports $40,000 of wage income and H reports $12,000 of wage income. In addition, H and W properly deduct $20,000 for their two personal exemptions and itemized deductions, H erroneously deducts a casualty loss in the amount of $5,000 related to a loss on his separately held property, and W erroneously takes a loss in the amount of $7,000 from an investment in a tax shelter. H and W legally separate in 2010, and on October 21, 2011, a $2,400 deficiency is assessed with respect to their 2008 joint return. H requests innocent spouse relief. The deficiency on the joint return results from a disallowance of all of H's $5,000 loss and all of W's $7,000 loss (which is allocable to W and for which H did not have actual knowledge).\n(ii) The $5,000 casualty loss is initially allocated to H. As H's separate taxable income is only $2,000 ($12,000 wage income less $10,000\u201450 percent of the exemptions and itemized deductions), H only used $2,000 of his $5,000 casualty loss to offset his separate taxable income, and W benefited from the other $3,000 of the disallowed loss, which offset a portion of her separate taxable income. Therefore, $3,000 of the disallowed loss is allocable to W even though the loss is H's item, and $2,000 of the loss is allocable to H. The $7,000 tax shelter loss is also allocable to W as H did not have knowledge of the facts that made the tax shelter item unallowable as a loss. H's allocation percentage is 1/6 ($2,000/$12,000) and H's liability is limited to $400 (1/6 of $2,400 deficiency). The IRS may collect up to $400 from H and up to $2,400 from W (although the total amount collected may not exceed $2,400).\n(iii) If the IRS could establish that H had knowledge of the facts that made the deduction for his casualty loss unallowable, the entire $5,000 casualty loss would be allocable to H. H's allocation percentage would be 5/12 ($5,000/$12,000) and H's liability would be limited to $1,000 (5/12 of $2,400 deficiency).\n(iv) If W also requested innocent spouse relief (and H did not have knowledge of the facts that made his loss unallowable), there would be no remaining joint and several liability, and the IRS would be permitted to collect $400 from H (1/6 ($2,000/$12,000) of the $2,400 deficiency) and $2,000 (5/6 ($10,000/$12,000) of $2,400 deficiency) from W. If the IRS could establish that W had knowledge of the facts that made the deduction for the casualty loss unallowable, W would then be liable for the entire $2,400 deficiency, while H would remain liable for up to $400.\nAllocation of liability based on joint erroneous loss item. (i) On their joint Federal income tax return for tax year 2009, H reports $100,000 of wage income and W reports $50,000 of wage income. In addition, H and W properly deduct $40,000 for their two personal exemptions and itemized deductions, and erroneously report a loss in the amount of $50,000 from a jointly-held investment in a tax shelter. H and W divorce in 2011, and on August 14, 2012, a $12,000 deficiency is assessed with respect to their 2009 joint return. W requests innocent spouse relief. The deficiency on the joint return results from a disallowance of all of the $50,000 loss.\n(ii) Under paragraph (d)(2)(iv) of this section, in the absence of clear and convincing evidence supporting a different allocation, an erroneous deduction item related to a jointly-owned investment is generally allocated 50 percent to each spouse. Thus, $25,000 of the loss is allocated to each spouse. In determining the effect, if any, of the tax benefit rule of \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(d)(2)(i), H's separate taxable income is $80,000: $100,000 wage income minus $20,000, or 50 percent of the exemptions and itemized deductions; and W's separate taxable income is $30,000: $50,000 minus $20,000. As both H's and W's separate taxable income exceeds their allocated share of the disallowed loss, no additional amount is allocated between the spouses. W's allocation percentage is 1/2 ($25,000/$50,000) and W's liability is limited to $6,000 (1/2 of $12,000 deficiency). The IRS may collect up to $6,000 from W and up to $12,000 from H (although the total amount collected may not exceed $12,000).\n(iii) If the IRS could establish that W had knowledge of the facts that made the loss unallowable, both H and W would then remain jointly and severally liable for the $12,000 deficiency.\nCalculation of tax benefit based on joint erroneous item. Assume the same facts as in Example 9 of this paragraph (d)(5), except that W's wage income is only $40,000. W's separate taxable income would then be only $20,000 ($40,000 wage income minus $20,000\u201450 percent of the exemptions and itemized deductions). W would only be able to use $20,000 of the $25,000 loss from the tax shelter to offset her separate taxable income. Accordingly, H benefited from the other $5,000 of the disallowed loss, which was used to offset a portion of his separate taxable income. Therefore, $20,000 of the disallowed loss is allocable to W, and $30,000 is allocable to H: $25,000 (H's 50 percent of the disallowed loss) plus $5,000 (the portion of W's 50 percent that is allocable to H because H received a tax benefit). W's allocation percentage is 2/5 ($20,000/$50,000) and W's liability is limited to $4,800 (2/5 of $12,000 deficiency). The IRS may collect up to $4,800 from W and up to $12,000 from H (although the total amount collected may not exceed $12,000).\nAllocation of erroneous item based on fraud of the nonrequesting spouse. During 2009, W fraudulently accesses H's brokerage account to sell stock that H had separately received from an inheritance. W deposits the funds from the sale in a separate bank account to which H did not have access. H and W file a joint Federal income tax return for tax year 2009. The return did not include the income from the sale of the stock. H and W divorce in November 2010. The divorce decree states that W committed forgery and defrauded H with respect to his brokerage account. The IRS commences an audit in March 2011 and determines a deficiency based on the omission of the income from the sale of the stock. H requests innocent spouse relief. Under paragraph (d)(2)(iii) of this section, items of investment income are generally allocated to the spouse who owned the investment, which in this case would be H. Under paragraph (d)(2)(ii) of this section, however, the IRS may allocate any item between the spouses if the IRS determines that the allocation is appropriate due to fraud by one or both spouses. The IRS determines that W committed fraud with respect to H and as a result it is appropriate to allocate the deficiency to W under paragraph (d)(2)(ii).\nPar. 11. Section 1.6015-4 is revised to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-4 Equitable relief.\n(a) A requesting spouse who files a joint return for which an understatement or deficiency (as defined by \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(7) and (8)) was determined or for which there was unpaid tax (as defined by \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(h)(6)), and who does not qualify for full relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 or \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, may be entitled to equitable relief under this section. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has the discretion to grant equitable relief from joint and several liability to a requesting spouse when, considering all of the facts and circumstances, it would be inequitable to hold the requesting spouse jointly and severally liable.\n(b) This section may not be used to circumvent the limitation of \u00a7\u20091.6015-3(c)(1). Therefore, relief is not available under this section to obtain a refund of liabilities already paid, for which the requesting spouse would otherwise qualify for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3. See \u00a7\u20091.6015-1(k)(3). If the requesting spouse is only eligible for partial relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 (i.e., some portion of the deficiency is allocable to the requesting spouse), then the requesting spouse may be considered for relief under this section with respect to the portion of the deficiency for which the requesting spouse was not entitled to relief.\n(c) For guidance concerning the criteria to be used in determining whether it is inequitable to hold a requesting spouse jointly and severally liable under this section, see Rev. Proc. 2013-34 (2013-1 IRB 397), or other guidance published by the Treasury and IRS (see \u00a7\u2009601.601(d)(2) of this chapter).\n(d) Effective/applicability date. This section will be applicable on the date of publication of a Treasury decision adopting these rules as final regulations in the Federal Register.\nPar. 12. Section 1.6015-5 is amended by adding paragraph (d) to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-5. Time and manner for requesting relief.\nPar. 13. Section 1.6015-6 is amended by revising the first sentence of paragraph (a)(1), adding a sentence at the end of paragraph (a)(2), and adding paragraph (d) to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-6 Nonrequesting spouse's notice and opportunity to participate in administrative proceedings.\n(a) * * * (1) When the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) receives a request for relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the IRS must send a notice to the nonrequesting spouse's last known address that informs the nonrequesting spouse of the requesting spouse's request for relief. * * *\n(2) * * * For guidance concerning the nonrequesting spouse's right to appeal the preliminary determination to IRS Appeals, see Rev. Proc. 2003-19 (2003-1 CB 371), or other guidance published by the Treasury Department and the IRS (see \u00a7\u2009601.601(d)(2) of this chapter).\nPar. 14. In \u00a7\u20091.6015-7, paragraphs (b), (c)(1), (c)(3), and (c)(4)(iii) are revised and paragraph (d) is added to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-7 Tax Court review.\n(b) Time period for petitioning the Tax Court. Pursuant to section 6015(e), the requesting spouse may petition the Tax Court to review the denial of relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-1 within 90 days after the date the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) final determination is mailed by certified or registered mail (the 90-day period). If the IRS does not mail the requesting spouse a final determination letter within 6 months of the date the requesting spouse files a request for relief under section 6015, the requesting spouse may petition the Tax Court to review the request at any time after the expiration of the 6-month period and before the expiration of the 90-day period. The Tax Court also may review a request for relief if the Tax Court has jurisdiction under another section of the Internal Revenue Code, such as section 6213(a) or section 6330(d). This paragraph (b) applies to liabilities arising on or after December 20, 2006, or arising prior to December 20, 2006, and remaining unpaid as of that date. For liabilities arising prior to December 20, 2006, which were fully paid prior to that date, the requesting spouse may petition the Tax Court to review the denial of relief as discussed above, but only with respect to denials of relief involving understatements under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4.\n(c) Restrictions on collection and suspension of the running of the period of limitations\u2014(1) Restrictions on collection\u2014(i) Restrictions on collection for requests for relief made on or after December 20, 2006. Unless the IRS determines that collection will be jeopardized by delay, no levy or proceeding in court shall be made, begun, or prosecuted against a spouse requesting relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 (except for certain requests for relief made solely under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4) for the collection of any assessment to which the request relates until the expiration of the 90-day period described in paragraph (b) of this section, or, if a petition is filed with the Tax Court, until the decision of the Tax Court becomes final under section 7481. For requests for relief made solely under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the restrictions on collection only apply if the liability arose on or after December 20, 2006, or arose prior to December 20, 2006, and remained unpaid as of that date. The restrictions on collection begin on the date the request is filed.\n(ii) Restriction on collection for requests for relief made before December 20, 2006. Unless the IRS determines that collection will be jeopardized by delay, no levy or proceeding in court shall be made, begun, or prosecuted against a requesting spouse requesting relief under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2 or \u00a7\u20091.6015-3 for the collection of any assessment to which the request relates until the expiration of the 90-day period described in paragraph (b) of this section, or if a petition is filed with the Tax Court, until the decision of the Tax Court becomes final under section 7481. The restrictions on collection begin on the date the request is filed with the IRS. For requests for relief made solely under \u00a7\u20091.6015-4, the restrictions on collection do not begin until December 20, 2006, and only apply with respect to liabilities remaining unpaid on or after that date.\n(iii) Rules for determining the period of the restrictions on collection. For more information regarding the date on which a decision of the Tax Court becomes final, see section 7481 and the regulations thereunder. Notwithstanding paragraphs (c)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section, if the requesting spouse appeals the Tax Court's decision, the IRS may resume collection of the liability from the requesting spouse on the date the requesting spouse files the notice of appeal, unless the requesting spouse files an appeal bond pursuant to the rules of section 7485. Jeopardy under paragraphs (c)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section means conditions exist that would require an assessment under section 6851 or 6861 and the regulations thereunder.\n(3) Suspension of the running of the period of limitations. The running of the period of limitations in section 6502 on collection against the requesting spouse of the assessment to which the request under \u00a7\u20091.6015-2, \u00a7\u20091.6015-3, or \u00a7\u20091.6015-4 relates is suspended for the period during which the IRS is prohibited by paragraph (c)(1) of this section from collecting by levy or a proceeding in court and for 60 days thereafter. If the requesting spouse, however, signs a waiver of the restrictions on collection in accordance with paragraph (c)(2) of this section, the suspension of the period of limitations in section 6502 on collection against the requesting spouse will terminate on the date that is 60 days after the date the waiver is filed with the IRS.\n(iii) Assessment to which the request relates. For purposes of this paragraph (c), the assessment to which the request relates is the entire assessment of the understatement or the balance due shown on the return to which the request relates, even if the request for relief is made with respect to only part of that understatement or balance due.\n\u00a7\u20091.6015-8 Applicable liabilities.\nPar. 16.

[FR Doc. 2015-29609 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4830-01-P DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY Coast Guard 33 CFR Part 165 [Docket No. USCG-2015-0786] RIN 1625-AA11 Regulated Navigation Area; Columbus Day Weekend, New Year's Eve Events, and Fourth of July Events; Biscayne Bay, Miami, FL AGENCY:\nThe Coast Guard proposes amending the Columbus Day weekend regulated navigation area on Biscayne Bay in Miami, Florida. The proposed amended regulation extends the Biscayne Bay regulated navigation enforcement period to New Year's Eve and Fourth of July events. It also expands the boundaries of the regulated navigation area south to Turkey Point, east to Elliott Key, west to the shoreline, and north to the Julia Tuttle Causeway. These regulations are necessary to protect the public during Columbus Day weekend, New Year's Eve events, and Fourth of July events; periods that have historically had a significant concentration of persons and vessels on the waters of Biscayne Bay. To ensure the public's safety, all vessels within the regulated navigation area are: Required to transit the regulated navigation area at no more than 15 knots; subject to control by the Coast Guard; and required to follow the instructions of all law enforcement vessels in the area. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.\nComments and related material must be received by the Coast Guard on or before December 21, 2015.\nIf you have questions about this proposed rulemaking, call or email Petty Officer Benjamin R. Colbert, Waterways Management Division, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone 305-535-4317, email [email protected]\nSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Table of Abbreviations CFR\u2003Code of Federal Regulations E.O.\u2003Executive Order FR\u2003Federal Register NPRM\u2003Notice of proposed rulemaking \u00a7\u2003Section U.S.C.\u2003United States Code II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis\nRecreational boating traffic on the waters of Biscayne Bay increases significantly during Columbus Day, New Year's Eve, and Fourth of July events. In recent years, recreational vessel speed, especially in crossing navigational channels, contributed to incidents that resulted in severe injury and death. This proposed regulation seeks to increase public safety on the waters of Biscayne Bay during holidays known for increased vessel traffic by requiring vessels to travel at a maximum speed of 15 knots. It also subjects recreational vessels to the control by Coast Guard and local law enforcement authorities.\nThe legal basis for this proposed rule is the Coast Guard's authority to establish regulated navigation areas and other limited access areas: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 50 U.S.C. 191; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6, and 160.5; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.\nThe purpose of the proposed rule is to ensure the safe transit of vessels and to protect persons, vessels, and the marine environment within the regulated navigation area during the Columbus Day weekend, New Year's Eve, and the Fourth of July.\nThe District Commander for the Coast Guard's Seventh District proposes to establish a regulated navigational area in the Biscayne Bay from noon on the Saturday preceding Columbus Day to 2 a.m. on Columbus Day; from 9 p.m. December 31st until 2 a.m. January 1st; and from 7 p.m. until 2 a.m. on the night Fourth of July fireworks are scheduled in Downtown Miami and Key Biscayne. This regulated navigation area would encompass waters of the Biscayne Bay between Julia Tuttle Causeway Bridge and Turkey Point in Homestead, Florida.\nAll vessels within the proposed regulated navigation area are: (1) Required to transit the regulated navigation area at no more than 15 knots; (2) subject to control by the Coast Guard; and (3) required to follow the instructions of all law enforcement vessels in the area.\nThe economic impact of this rule is not significant. For the following reasons: (1) The regulated navigation area will be enforced for less than 2 days each year for Columbus Day events and less for New Year's Eve and Fourth of July events; (2) although, during the enforcement period, vessels are required to transit the area at no more than 15 knots, are subject to control by the Coast Guard, and are required to follow the instructions of all law enforcement vessels in the area, the regulated navigation area does not prohibit vessels from transiting the area; (3) during the enforcement period, vessels will be able to operate in waters that are not encompassed within the regulated navigation area without the restrictions imposed by the regulated navigation area; and (4) advance notification will be made to the local maritime community via Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.\nWhile some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the regulated navigation area may be small entities, for the reasons stated in Section IV.A above this proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on any vessel owner or operator.\nWe have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969(42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This proposed rule involves establishing a regulated navigation area which will be enforced for less than 48 hours. It is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant environmental impact from this proposed rule.\nPART 165\u2014REGULATED NAVIGATION AREAS AND LIMITED ACCESS AREAS 1.

[FR Doc. 2015-29533 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 9110-04-P DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Forest Service 36 CFR Part 294 RIN 0596-AD26 Roadless Area Conservation; National Forest System Lands in Colorado AGENCY:\nNotice of proposed rulemaking; request for comment.\nThe U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is proposing to reinstate the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception of the Colorado Roadless Rule. The Colorado Roadless Rule is a State-specific rule that provides direction for conserving and managing approximately 4.2 million acres of Colorado Roadless Areas (CRAs) on National Forest System (NFS) lands within the state of Colorado. The North Fork Coal Mining Area exception allowed for temporary road construction for coal exploration and/or coal-related surface activities in an area defined as the North Fork Coal Mining Area, which was inadvertently reported as 19,100 acres in 2012, and was actually 19,500 acres. The Forest Service, on behalf of the Department, has prepared a supplemental environmental impact statement (SEIS) addressing specific environmental disclosure deficiencies identified by the District Court of Colorado. In addition, the Department is proposing to correct certain CRA boundaries associated with the North Fork Coal Mining Area based on updated information. The Forest Service invites written comments on both the proposed rule and supplemental draft environmental impact statement.\nComments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by January 4, 2016. Comments concerning the supplemental draft environmental impact statement contained in this proposed rule must be received in writing by January 4, 2016.\nAll comments, including names and addresses, will be placed in the project record and available for public inspections and copying.\nThe public may inspect comments received on this proposed rule at USDA, Forest Service, Ecosystem Management Coordination Staff, 1400 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC, between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on business days. Those wishing to inspect comments should call 202-205-0895 ahead to facilitate an appointment and entrance to the building. Comments may also be inspected at USDA, Forest Service Rocky Mountain Regional Office, Strategic Planning Staff, 740 Simms, Golden, Colorado, between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on business days. Those wishing to inspect comments at the Regional Office should call 303-275-5156 ahead to facilitate an appointment and entrance to the building.\nKen Tu, Interdisciplinary Team Leader, Rocky Mountain Regional Office at 303-275-5156.\nIn July 2012, the USDA promulgated the Colorado Roadless Rule, a State-specific regulation for conserving and managing approximately 4.2 million acres of CRAs on NFS lands. The Rule addressed State-specific concerns while conserving roadless area characteristics. One State-specific concern involved continued exploration and development of coal resources in the North Fork Valley area of the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison (GMUG) National Forests. The Colorado Roadless Rule addressed this State-specific concern by defining an area called the North Fork Coal Mining Area and developing an exception that allowed temporary road construction for coal-related activities within that defined area.\nIn July 2013, High Country Conservation Advocates, WildEarth Guardians, and Sierra Club challenged the Forest Service consent decision to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) modifying two existing coal leases, the BLM's companion decision to modify the leases, the BLM's authorization of exploration in the lease modification areas, and the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception of the Colorado Roadless Rule. In June 2014, the District Court of Colorado found the environmental documents supporting the four decisions to be in violation of NEPA. The deficiencies identified by the Court associated with the Colorado Roadless Rule included: Failure to disclose greenhouse gas emissions associated with potential mine operations; failure to disclose greenhouse gas emissions associated with combustion of coal potentially mined from the area; and failure to address a report about coal substitution submitted during a public comment period. In September 2014, the District Court of Colorado vacated the exploration plan, the lease modifications, and the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception of the Colorado Roadless Rule (36 CFR 294.43(c)(1)(ix)) but otherwise left the Rule intact and operational.\nThe final 2012 Colorado Roadless Rule was developed collaboratively between the USDA, Forest Service, State of Colorado, and interested publics. The North Fork Coal Mining Area exception was developed by a 13-member, bipartisan task force established under Colorado Revised Statute \u00a7\u200936-7-302 to make recommendations to the Governor regarding management of roadless areas in Colorado national forests. Between June 8, 2005, with the signing of Colorado Senate bill 05-243 which created the Roadless Task Force and November 13, 2006, with then Governor Owen signing the Colorado State Petition, the task force held nine public meetings throughout the State and six deliberative meetings of the task force members that were open to the public, and reviewed and considered over 40,000 public comments. Comments were both supportive and opposed to coal extraction. The task force recommended a Colorado Roadless Rule not apply to about 55,000 acres of roadless areas in the GMUG National Forests for activities related to and in support of underground coal mining.\nOn November 13, 2006 then-Governor Bill Owens submitted a petition to the USDA to develop a State-specific roadless rule. The petition reflected the task force recommendations and included the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception. Governor Owens stated that the petition weighed Colorado's interests and reflected the concerns of the entire State. The 2006 petition attempted to strike a balance between those that supported coal extraction and those that opposed it by proposing that a roadless rule not apply to the North Fork Valley. Potential coal resources within roadless areas on the Pike-San Isabel, Routt, White River, and San Juan National Forests were not included in the petition.\nAfter Governor Owens submitted the State's petition, Bill Ritter, Jr. was elected Governor of Colorado. In April 2007, then-Governor Ritter resubmitted the petition with minor modifications. Governor Ritter supported the concept of having the Colorado Roadless Rule not apply to the North Fork Coal Mining Area but explicitly asked the area remain in the Colorado roadless inventory. In 2010, John Hickenlooper was elected Governor of Colorado. Governor Hickenlooper also supported having a North Fork Coal Mining Area exception.\nThroughout the development of the Colorado Roadless Rule, the USDA, Forest Service, and State of Colorado attempted to strike a balance between those that support and oppose coal mining in CRAs. The North Fork Coal Mining Area reflects this effort to find common ground. In November 2006, Governor Owens petitioned approximately 55,000 acres be considered as the North Fork Coal Mining Area, which included all or portions of Currant Creek, Electric Mountain, Flatirons, Flattops-Elk Park, Pilot Knob, and Sunset CRAs. In July 2008, the North Fork Coal Mining Area was reduced to approximately 29,000 acres in the proposed rule and included all or portions of Currant Creek, Electric Mountain, Flatirons, Pilot Knob, and Sunset CRAs. In April 2011, the North Fork Coal Mining Area was further reduced to approximately 20,000 acres in the revised proposed rule and included all or portions of Currant Creek, Electric Mountain, Flatirons, Pilot Knob, and Sunset CRAs. In July 2012, the North Fork Coal Mining Area was reported in error as 19,100 acres in the final rule. The actual acreage was 19,500, and included all or portions of Flatirons, Pilot Knob, and Sunset CRAs. The changes made to the North Fork Coal Mining Area were a direct result of public comments and the desire to balance economic concerns with roadless values.\nThroughout the rulemaking process, a total of five formal comment periods were held by the State and Forest Service resulting in 24 public meetings and over 312,000 comments. In addition, five meetings open to the public were held by the Roadless Area Conservation National Advisory Committee, which provided recommendations to the Secretary of Agriculture. The USDA believes there is an appropriate balance between conserving roadless area characteristics and the state-specific concerns in the continued exploration and development of coal resources in the July 2012 final rule where less than 0.5 percent of the CRAs were designated as the North Fork Coal Mining Area.\nNeed for Rulemaking\nAll existing Federal coal leases within CRAs occur in the North Fork Valley near Paonia, Colorado on the GMUG National Forests. Coal from this area meets the Clean Air Act definition for compliant and super-compliant coal, which means it has high energy value and low sulphur, ash and mercury content. There are two mines currently holding leases within CRAs. One is operating, producing approximately 5.2 million tons of coal annually. The second is currently idle due to a fire and flood within their mine operation. The final rule accommodates continued coal mining opportunities within the North Fork Coal Mining Area. At approximately 19,500 acres, this area is less than 0.5% of the total 4.2 million acres of CRAs. The North Fork Coal Mining Area exception allows for the construction of temporary roads for exploration and surface activities related to coal mining for existing and future coal leases. The reinstatement of this exception does not approve any future coal leases, nor does it make a decision about the leasing availability of any coal within the State. Those decisions would need to undergo separate environmental analyses, public input, and decision-making.\nThree alternatives are addressed in detail in the SEIS. Alternative A is the No Action Alternative, and would continue the current management under the Colorado Roadless Rule without a North Fork Coal Mining Area exception. Alternative A would manage the 19,500 acres of CRA within the vacated North Fork Coal Mining Area as non-upper tier roadless. Alternative B (proposed action), would reinstate the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception, allowing temporary road construction for coal mining related activities on 19,700 acres of NFS lands within CRAs. Alternative C (exclusion of \u201cwilderness capable\u201d lands) would establish the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception, but exclude lands identified as \u201cwilderness capable\u201d during the 2007 GMUG Forest Plan revision process. Alternative C would allow temporary road construction for coal mining activities on 12,600 acres of NFS lands within CRAs.\nIn addition, all alternatives include boundary correction of CRAs based on more accurate inventory of forest road locations obtained since the promulgation of the 2012 Colorado Roadless Rule. These corrections will add 65 acres into the CRAs, and subtract 35 acres from CRAs along the existing road system. The court identified deficiencies were addressed in the SEIS in the following manner:\n1. Failure to disclose greenhouse gas emissions associated with potential mine operations\u2014The SEIS estimates greenhouse gas emissions associated with mining of the coal based on three potential production levels (low, average and air quality permitted). Table 1 displays results for Alternative B (proposed action).\nTable 1\u2014Estimated Annual Gross Lifecycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Potential Coal Mining for Alternative B Under Three Production Scenarios, in Annual Tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalents Alternative B Low scenario Average\n(max air\nquality permit\nCoal Production (annual tons) 5,300,000 10,000,000 15,500,000 carbon dioxide equivalents Carbon dioxide\u2014extraction 100,000 200,000 300,000 Methane\u2014extraction 1,200,000 4,200,000 6,300,000 Nitrous oxide\u2014extraction 0 0 0 Total 1,300,000 4,400,000 6,600,000\n2. Failure to disclose greenhouse gas emissions associated with combustion of coal potentially mined from the area\u2014The SEIS includes a lifecycle analysis of greenhouse gas emissions that includes downstream effects of combustion of coal based on three potential production levels. Table 2 displays results for Alternative B (proposed action).\nTable 2\u2014Estimated Annual Gross Lifecycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Potential Transportation and Combustion of Coal for Alternative B Under Three Production Scenarios, in Metric Tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalents Alternative B Low scenario Average\nCoal Production (annual tons) 5,300,000 10,000,000 15,500,000 carbon dioxide equivalents Carbon dioxide\u2014combustion 11,600,000 22,000,000 34,500,000 All\u2014rail transport 600,000 1,200,000 1,800,000 Carbon dioxide\u2014overseas shipping 100,000 200,000 300,000 Total 12,300,000 23,400,000 36,600,000\n3. Failure to address a report about coal substitution submitted during a public comment period\u2014The SEIS includes a lifecycle analysis of greenhouse gas emissions that includes the downstream effects of substituted energy sources if the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception is not reinstated (Alternative A).\nChanges in gross production and consumption of coal from the North Fork Coal Mining Area are expected to have an effect on production and consumption of other fuel sources, including alternative supplies of coal, natural gas, and other energy supplies such as renewables, especially in later years of the analysis. The SEIS characterizes market responses and substitution effects in order to estimate net changes in energy production and consumption. The ICF International's Integrated Planning Model (IPM\u00ae) was used to predict how production and consumption of other sources of coal and natural gas, as well as alternative sources of energy (e.g., renewables, bio/waste fuel) respond to, substitute, or offset for changes in the supply of low sulfur bituminous coal from the North Fork Coal Mining Area.\nAssuming that total gross production of underground coal from the North Fork Coal Mining Area increases by 172 million tons over the period 2016 to 2054 for Alternative B, compared to Alternative A, production from other substitute sources of underground coal around the nation are likely to decrease, in many cases, in response to an increase in North Fork Coal Mining Area underground coal production. These decreases in other underground coal mining would offset, in part, some of the 172 million tons of underground coal production from the North Fork Coal Mining Area, resulting in net domestic underground coal production of 91 million tons. These results are estimated using response coefficients derived from IPM\u00ae modeling results.\nProduction of substitute sources of surface coal and natural gas across the country are estimated to decrease by 23 million tons and 271 BCF, in response to increases in North Fork Coal Mining Area coal production. Total electricity generation is assumed to remain constant across the three alternatives, so change in total electricity generation is equal to zero for Alternative B, compared to A. However, the mix of energy sources used to generate the electricity will change, in response to increases in North Fork Coal Mining Area coal production.\nThese shifts in the mixtures of energy used to generate electricity, as well as the production of different types of energy will change carbon dioxide emissions. Total carbon dioxide emissions is estimated to increase by 131 million tons under Alternative B, compared to Alternative A.\n4. The SEIS addresses the social cost of carbon as related to the Colorado Roadless Rule. A social cost of carbon calculation was completed as part of the present net value analysis considering the 2010, 2013, and 2015 Technical Update of the social cost of carbon for Regulatory Impact Analysis Under Executive Order 12866\u2014Interagency Working Group on social cost of carbon.\nSocial cost of carbon estimates represent global measures because emissions of greenhouse gasses from within the U.S. contribute to damages around the world. The total social cost of carbon values therefore account for global damages caused by greenhouse gas emissions. The SEIS discusses greenhouse gas estimates in the context of (i) total or global social cost of carbon estimates and (ii) domestic (U.S.) estimate represented by applying 7 percent to 23 percent of social cost of carbon estimates, and (iii) a forest estimate for the GMUG national forest boundary.\nDiscussion of these accounting stances is intended to help the decision maker and the public understand the relative importance of considering greenhouse gas damages as a global problem, in comparison to the more traditional domestic benefit cost stance adopted for regulatory impact analysis and NEPA effects analysis for public land management decision-making.\nPresent net value results, which include the social cost of carbon calculation, estimated under the global view are primarily negative, with values as low as negative $12 billion in net damages to positive $1.9 billion in net benefits for Alternative B, compared to Alternative A. Present net value ranges from negative $6.8 billion to positive $1.3 billion for Alternative C, relative to Alternative A. Midpoint present net value estimates range from negative $0.8 to negative $3.4 billion in net damages for Alternatives B and C, compared to Alternative A.\nRegulatory Considerations Regulatory Planning and Review\nUSDA consulted with the Office of Management and Budget and determined this proposed rule does not meet the criteria for a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.\nRegulatory Flexibility Act and Consideration of Small Entities\nUSDA certifies the proposed regulation, if promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities as determined in the 2012 Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. Therefore notification to the Small Business Administration's Chief Council for Advocacy is not required pursuant to Executive Order 13272.\nThe Colorado Roadless Rule and the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception do not constitute a \u201csignificant energy action\u201d as defined by Executive Order 13211. No novel legal or policy issues regarding adverse effects to supply, distribution, or use of energy are anticipated beyond what has been addressed in the 2012 FEIS or the Regulatory Impact Analysis prepared in association with the final 2012 Colorado Roadless Rule. The proposed reinstatement of the North Fork Coal Mining Area exception does not restrict access to privately held mineral rights, or mineral rights held through existing claims or leases, and allows for disposal of mineral materials. The proposed rule does not prohibit future mineral claims or mineral leasing in areas otherwise open for such. The rulemaking provides a regulatory mechanism for consideration of requests for modification of restriction if adjustments are determined to be necessary in the future.\nUSDA has determined the proposed rule conforms with the Federalism principles set out in Executive Order 13132 and does not have Federalism implications. The rulemaking would not impose any new compliance costs on any State; and the rulemaking would not have substantial direct effects on States, on the relationship between the national government and the states, nor on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.\nThe proposed rule is based on a petition submitted by the State of Colorado under the Administrative Procedure Act at 5 U.S.C. 553(e) and pursuant to USDA regulations at 7 CFR 1.28. The State's petition was developed through a task force with local government involvement. The State of Colorado is a cooperating agency pursuant to 40 CFR 1501.6 of the Council on Environmental Quality regulations for implementation of NEPA.\nTakings of Private Property\nUSDA analyzed the proposed rule in accordance with the principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 12630. The Agency determined the proposed rule does not pose the risk of a taking of private property.\nUSDA reviewed the proposed rule in context of Executive Order 12988. The Agency has not identified any State or local laws or regulations that are in conflict with this proposed rule or would impede full implementation of this proposed rule. However, if this proposed rule were adopted, (1) all State and local laws and regulations that conflict with this rulemaking or would impede full implementation of this rulemaking would be preempted; (2) no retroactive effect would be given to this proposed rule; and (3) this rulemaking would not require the use of administrative proceedings before parties could file suit in court.\nUSDA provided an introductory letter and the Notice of Intent for the Colorado Roadless Rule and the supplemental draft EIS to the Ute, Ute Mountain Ute, and Southern Ute Indian Tribes in context of Executive Order 13175. No specific requests from any tribes were made for additional information or meetings. No letters from any tribes have been received concerning the proposed action.\nUSDA has assessed the effects of the Colorado Roadless Rule on State, local, and Tribal governments and the private sector. This proposed rule does not compel the expenditure of $100 million or more by State, local, or Tribal governments, or anyone in the private sector. Therefore, a statement under section 202 of title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 is not required.\nThis rulemaking does not call for any additional recordkeeping, reporting requirements, or other information collection requirements as defined in 5 CFR 1320 that are not already required by law or not already approved for use. The proposed rule imposes no additional paperwork burden on the public. Therefore the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 does not apply to this proposal.\nNational Forests, Recreation areas, Navigation (air), and State petitions for inventoried roadless area management.\nFor the reasons set forth in the preamble, the Forest Service proposes to amend part 294 of Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations by reinstating 36 CFR 294.43(c)(1)(ix) to read as follows:\nPART 294\u2014SPECIAL AREAS Subpart D\u2014Colorado Roadless Area Management 1. The authority citation for part 294, subpart D continues to read as follows: Authority:\n16 U.S.C. 472, 529, 551, 1608, 1613; 23 U.S.C. 201, 205.\n2. Amend \u00a7\u2009294.43 by revising paragraph (c)(1)(ix) to read as follows:\n\u00a7\u2009294.43 Prohibition on road construction and reconstruction.\n(ix) A temporary road is needed for coal exploration and/or coal-related surface activities for certain lands with Colorado Roadless Areas in the North Fork Coal Mining Area of the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests as defined by the North Fork Coal Mining Area displayed on the final Colorado Roadless Areas map. Such roads may also be used for collecting and transporting coal mine methane. Any buried infrastructure, including pipelines, needed for the capture, collection, and use of coal mine methane, will be located within the rights-of-way of temporary roads that are otherwise necessary for coal-related surface activities including the installation and operation of methane venting wells.\nDated: November 6, 2015.

[FR Doc. 2015-29592 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3411-15-P DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Defense Acquisition Regulations System 48 CFR Part 215 [Docket DARS-2015-0051] RIN 0750-AI75 Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement: Promoting Voluntary Post-Award Disclosure of Defective Pricing (DFARS Case 2015-D030) AGENCY:\nDoD is proposing to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to stipulate that DoD contracting officers shall request a limited-scope audit, unless a full-scope audit is appropriate for the circumstances, in the interest of promoting voluntary contractor disclosure of defective pricing identified by the contractor after contract award.\nComments on the proposed rule should be submitted in writing to the address shown below on or before January 19, 2016, to be considered in the formation of a final rule.\nDoD is proposing to revise the DFARS to stipulate that DoD contracting officers shall request a limited-scope audit when a contractor voluntarily discloses defective pricing after contract award, unless a full-scope audit is appropriate for the circumstances. In response to the Better Buying Power 2.0 initiative on \u201cEliminating Requirements Imposed on Industry where Costs Outweigh Benefits,\u201d contractors recommended several changes to 41 U.S.C. chapter 35, Truthful Cost or Pricing Data (formerly the Truth in Negotiations Act) and to the related DFARS guidance. Specifically, contractors recommended that DoD clarify policy guidance to reduce repeated submissions of certified cost or pricing data. Frequent submissions of such data are used as a defense against defective pricing claims by DoD after contract award, since data that are frequently updated are less likely to be considered outdated or inaccurate and, therefore, defective. Better Buying Power 3.0 called for a revision of regulatory guidance regarding the requirement for contracting officers to request an audit even if a contractor voluntarily discloses defective pricing after contract award.\nThis proposed rule amends DFARS 215.407-1(c) to\u2014\n\u2022 Require DoD contracting officers to request a limited-scope unless a full-scope audit is appropriate for the circumstances, when contractors voluntarily disclose defective pricing after contract award;\n\u2022 Indicate that to determine the appropriate scope of the audit, the contracting officer should consult with Defense Contract Audit Agency; and\n\u2022 Clarify that voluntary disclosure of defective pricing does not waive Government entitlement to the recovery of any overpayment plus interest on the overpayments, or rights to pursue defective pricing claims.\nThe objective of the proposed rule is to stipulate that DoD contracting officers shall request a limited-scope audit when a contractor voluntarily discloses defective pricing after contract award, unless a full-scope audit is appropriate for the circumstances. This rule will apply to all DoD contractors, including small entities, who are required to submit certified cost or pricing data. If those small entities usually submit cost or pricing data frequently in order to avoid defective pricing claims, then this rule may encourage them to reduce the number of such submissions.\nThere is no change to reporting or recordkeeping as a result of this rule. The rule does not duplicate, overlap, or conflict with any other Federal rules.\nThere are no known significant alternative approaches to the rule that would meet the requirements.\nPART 215\u2014CONTRACTING BY NEGOTIATION 1. The authority citation for part 215 continues to read as follows: Authority:\n2.

L. 113-291). Section 811 entitled \u201cExtension and Modification of Contract Authority for Advanced Component Development and Prototype Units\u201d amends paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 819 of the NDAA for FY 2010 (10 U.S.C. 2302 note).\nThe rule proposes to amend DFARS 217.202(2) and 234.005-1(1) to add \u201cor initial production\u201d to the text. This will allow for the inclusion of a contract line item (possibly an option) to go to initial production without further competition. However, there is no new impact on contract cost because section 819(b) of the NDAA for FY 2010 (which is unchanged in 2015) continues to place a limitation on costs associated with any contract line item (option or otherwise) for the delivery of initial or additional items. The rule also extends this authority at DFARS 234.005-1(2) to September 30, 2019, from September 30, 2014.\nDoD does not expect this rule to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because the rule primarily provides greater flexibility to DoD when contracting for major system acquisitions. However, an initial regulatory flexibility analysis has been performed and is summarized as follows:\nThe purpose of the rule is to implement section 811 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 (Pub. L. 113-291). Section 811 entitled \u201cExtension and Modification of Contract Authority for Advanced Component Development and Prototype Units\u201d amends paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 819 of the NDAA for FY 2010 (10 U.S.C. 2302 note).\nThe rule proposes to amend DFARS 217.202(2) and 234.005-1(1) to add \u201cor initial production\u201d to the text. This will allow for the inclusion of a contract line item (possibly an option) to go to initial production without further competition.\nThe rule will apply to DoD major defense acquisition program contractors and subcontractors. Most major defense acquisition programs are awarded to large concerns as they are of a scope too large for any small business to perform. As such, it is not expected that this rule will have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities.\nThe rule does not impose any additional reporting, recordkeeping, and other compliance requirements. The rule does not duplicate, overlap, or conflict with any other Federal rules. There are no alternatives available that would meet the objectives of the statute.\nDoD will also consider comments from small entities concerning the affected DFARS subpart in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 601. Such comments should be submitted separately and should cite 5 U.S.C. 610 (DFARS Case 2015-D008) in correspondence.\nThe Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the rule does not impose any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. chapter 35.\nTherefore, 48 CFR parts 217 and 234 are proposed to be amended as follows:\nPART 217\u2014SPECIAL CONTRACTING METHODS 2.

The prescription for use of DFARS clause 252.225-7001 does not clearly make a distinction with regard to when an exception to the Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program applies. As written, procurement offices may inaccurately believe that it is permissible to omit the clause if either situation occurs. However, the clause is required in solicitations and contracts unless (1) the acquisition is for supplies for use within the United States and an exception to the Buy American statute applies (e.g., nonavailability or public interest), or (2) the acquisition is for supplies for use outside the United States and an exception to the Balance of Payments Program applies.\nDoD does not expect this proposed rule to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because it applies to internal procedures for Government contracting officers. This proposed rule clarifies how clause prescription addresses applicability when an exception to the Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program applies. However, an initial regulatory flexibility analysis has been performed and is summarized as follows:\nThe objective of this proposed rule is to clarify the prescription for use of DFARS clause 252.225-7001, Buy American and Balance of Payments Program, to state that the clause does not apply when (1) the acquisition is for supplies for use within the United States and an exception to the Buy American statute applies, or (2) the acquisition is for supplies for use outside the United States and an exception to the Balance of Payments Program applies.\nDoD does not expect this proposed rule to have a significant impact on small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because it merely clarifies how the clause prescription addresses applicability when an exception to the Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program applies.\nThis proposed rule does not add any new reporting, recordkeeping, and other compliance requirements.

The current threshold, established in 2003, was based on the estimated cost to process a duty-free entry certificate at the time. This rule proposes to make the upward adjustment to reflect annual inflation rates (based on the U.S. Consumer Price Index) that have occurred in the last 12 years.\nCurrent data indicates, on average, approximately 31,500 duty-free entry certificates on foreign supplies for DoD per year. DoD does not expect a change in the estimated duty-free entry processes.

Brewer, OUSD(AT&L)DPAP/DARS, Room 3B941, 3060 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3060.\nMs. Janetta L. Brewer, telephone 571-372-6104.\nDoD is proposing to revise the DFARS to clarify the contract term for contracts awarded under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2913. Section 2913 requires DoD to develop a simplified method of contracting for shared energy savings contract services that will accelerate the use of such contracts. DoD is authorized by section 2913 to contract with utility service providers to implement energy conservation measures on military bases. Section 2913 does not indicate a term limit for contracts executed under this authority.\nThe proposed rule revises DFARS 241.103 by adding paragraph (2) to state that contracting officers may enter into a shared energy savings contract under 10 U.S.C. 2913 for a period not-to-exceed 25 years. Experience has indicated that a period of less than 25 years is frequently insufficient to amortize the capital cost. Twenty-five years allows a greater volume and variety of energy conservation measures, and is consistent with non-DoD agency practice for similar contracts.\nDoD does not expect this proposed rule to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because the rule only seeks to clarify the contract term for contracts awarded under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2913. However, an initial regulatory flexibility analysis has been performed and is summarized as follows:\nDoD is proposing to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to clarify the contract term for contracts awarded under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2913. Section 2913 requires DoD to develop a simplified method of contracting for shared energy savings contract services that will accelerate the use of such contracts. DoD is authorized by section 2913 to contract with utility service providers to implement energy conservation measures on military bases. Section 2913 does not indicate a term limit for contracts executed under this authority, and this has created ambiguity and inconsistency throughout DoD on the term limit that is imposed on contracts awarded under the authority. Additionally, the ambiguity has resulted in a hesitation to enter shared energy savings contracts, contrary to the intent of section 2913.\nThe proposed rule is not anticipated to have a significant economic impact on small business entities. The number of contract awards made under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2913 is not currently tracked by DoD's business systems. However, it is estimated that approximately 25 shared energy savings projects are initiated across DoD each year, with approximately 17 being awarded annually. It is believed that most awards are made to large utility providers, with generally 25% or more of the renovation and operations & maintenance work executed under the awards being subcontracted to local small business by the utility provider.\nThis rule does not impose new recordkeeping or reporting requirements. This rule only serves to clarify the maximum contract term that may be authorized for these awards. Any burden caused by this rule is expected to be minimal and will not be any greater on small entities than it is on large businesses.\nThe rule does not impose any additional reporting, recordkeeping, and other compliance requirements. The rule does not duplicate, overlap, or conflict with any other Federal rules. There are no known significant alternatives to this rule.\nTherefore, 48 CFR part 241 is proposed to be amended to read as follows:\n2. Amend section 241.103 by redesignating paragraphs (2) and (3) as paragraphs (3) and (4) and adding a new paragraph (2) to read as follows:\n(2) The contracting officer may enter into a shared energy savings contract under 10 U.S.C. 2913 for a period not to exceed 25 years.\n[FR Doc. 2015-29553 Filed 11-19-15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 5001-06-P DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 50 CFR Part 660 [Docket No. 130808697-5999-01] RIN 0648-XC808 Fisheries Off West Coast States; Coastal Pelagic Species Fisheries; Multi-Year Specifications for Monitored and Prohibited Harvest Species Stock Categories AGENCY:\nNMFS proposes to implement annual catch limits (ACL) and, where necessary, other annual reference points (overfishing limits (OFL) and acceptable biological catches (ABC)) for certain stocks in the monitored and prohibited harvest species categories under the Coastal Pelagic Species (CPS) Fishery Management Plan (FMP). The proposed ACLs are: Jack mackerel, 31,000 metric tons (mt); northern subpopulation of northern anchovy, 9,750 mt; central subpopulation of northern anchovy, 25,000 mt; and krill, zero. Additionally, an OFL of 39,000 mt, an ABC of 9,750 mt and an annual catch target (ACT) of 1,500 mt is being proposed for the northern subpopulation of northern anchovy. This rule is intended to conserve and manage these stocks off the U.S. West Coast. If the ACL for any one of these stocks is reached, then fishing for that stock will be closed until it reopens at the start of the next fishing season.\n\u2022 Instructions: Comments must be submitted by one of the above methods to ensure that the comments are received, documented, and considered by NMFS. Comments sent by any other method, to any other address or individual, or received after the end of the comment period, may not be considered.

All personal identifying information (e.g., name, address, etc.) submitted voluntarily by the sender will be publicly accessible. Do not submit confidential business information, or otherwise sensitive or protected information. NMFS will accept anonymous comments (enter \u201cN/A\u201d in the required fields if you wish to remain anonymous).\nThe CPS fishery in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the West Coast is managed under the CPS FMP, which was developed by the Pacific Fishery Management Council (Pacific Council) pursuant to the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA), 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq. The six species managed under the CPS FMP are Pacific sardine, Pacific mackerel, jack mackerel, northern anchovy (northern and central subpopulations), market squid and krill. The CPS FMP is implemented by regulations at 50 CFR part 660, subpart I.\nManagement unit stocks in the CPS FMP are classified under three management categories: Actively managed; monitored; and prohibited harvest species. Active stocks are characterized by periodic stock assessments, and/or periodic or annual adjustments of target harvest levels. Management of monitored stocks, in contrast, generally involves tracking landings against the relevant ACL (previously the ABCs) and qualitative comparison to available abundance data, but without regular stock assessments or annual adjustments to target harvest levels. Species in both categories may be subject to management measures such as catch allocation, gear regulations, closed areas, closed seasons, or other forms of \u201cactive\u201d management. For example, trip limits and a limited entry permit program are already in place for all CPS finfish. The monitored category includes jack mackerel, two sub-populations of northern anchovy stock and market squid. Krill is the only stock in the prohibited harvest category. The monitored stocks have not been managed to a hard quota like the active category stocks by NMFS (although the state of California manages market squid with an annual limit). Instead, landings have been monitored against harvest reference levels to determine if overfishing is occurring and to gauge the need for more active management such as requiring periodic stock assessments and regular adjustments to a quota. Catches of the three finfish stocks in the monitored category\u2014northern anchovy (northern and central subpopulations) and jack mackerel\u2014 have remained well below their respective ABC (now proposed ACL levels for jack mackerel and the central anchovy population) since implementation of the CPS FMP in 2000, with average catches over the last 10 years of approximately 7,300 mt, 270 mt and 660 mt for the central and northern subpopulations of northern anchovy and jack mackerel, respectively.\nIn September 2011, NMFS approved Amendment 13 to the CPS FMP, which modified the framework process used to set and adjust fishery specifications and for setting ACLs and accountability measures (AMs); Amendment 13 was intended to ensure the FMP conforms with the 2007 amendments to the MSA and NMFS' revised MSA National Standard 1 guidelines at 50 CFR part 600. Specifically, Amendment 13 maintained the existing reference points and the primary harvest control rules for the monitored stocks (jack mackerel, northern anchovy and market squid), including the large buffer built into the ABC control rule for the finfish stocks, as well as the overfishing criteria for market squid, but modified these reference points and control rules to align with the revised advisory guidelines and to comply with the new statutory requirement to establish a process for setting ACLs and AMs. This included a default management framework under which the OFL for each monitored stock was set equal to the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) value and ABC was reduced from the OFL by 75 percent as an uncertainty buffer (based on the existing ABC control rule where ABC equals 25 percent of OFL/MSY). This default framework is used unless there is determined to be a more appropriate OFL, as is the case for the northern subpopulation of northern anchovy, or stock specific ABC control rule like the proxy for the Fishing rate that is expected to result in maximum sustainable yield (FMSY proxy) for market squid of Egg Escapement \u2265 30 percent. ACLs are then set equal to the ABC or could be set lower than the ABC, along with annual catch targets (ACTs), if deemed necessary. These control rules and harvest policies for monitored CPS stocks are simpler and more precautionary than those used for actively managed stocks in recognition of the low fishing effort and low landings for these stocks, as well as the lack of current estimates of stock biomass.\nThrough this action, NMFS proposes to implement the ACLs shown in Table 1 below for jack mackerel, the two subpopulations of northern anchovy, and krill, as well an OFL, ABC and ACT for the northern subpopulation of northern anchovy.\nTable 1\u2014Proposed ACLs for Monitored CPS Finfish, Including Proposed OFL, ABC, and ACT for the Northern Subpopulation of Northern Anchovy Stock OFL ABC ACL ACT Jack mackerel 126,000 mt 31,000 mt 31,000 mt Northern anchovy, (northern subpopulation) 39,000 mt 9,750 mt 9,750 mt 1,500 mt.

The OFL and ABC specifications for those stocks are set in the FMP; NMFS does not propose to establish or revise them by this proposed rule.\nThese proposed catch levels and reference points were recommended to NMFS by the Pacific Council and were based on recommendations from its advisory bodies according to the framework in the FMP established through Amendment 13, including OFL and ABC recommendations from its Science and Statistical Committee (SSC). The proposed ACLs for these monitored stocks would be in place for the calendar year fishing season (January 1-December 31), and would remain in place for each subsequent calendar year until new scientific information becomes available to warrant changing them, or if landings increase and consistently reach the ABC/ACL level and it necessitates a change to active management under the FMP. These management benchmarks provide a means to monitor these stocks on an annual basis. Each year, the total harvest of each stock will be assessed against the ACL until such time as the Pacific Council chooses to reassess the management of these stocks, new scientific information regarding these stocks becomes available, or harvest approaches or exceeds the ACL. These benchmarks implicitly include a postseason AM; harvest levels are monitored annually to assess whether a stock should become actively managed.\nPer the framework that was established through Amendment 13, the OFLs for the central subpopulation of northern anchovy and jack mackerel are set based on MSY values that were established through Amendment 8 to the FMP. In 2015, Amendment 14 to the CPS FMP established an FMSY of 0.3 as the MSY reference point for the northern subpopulation of northern anchovy in the CPS FMP. However, because the framework in the FMP for setting ABCs is based on applying a percentage to numerical MSY/OFLs, it was necessary to determine a numerical OFL value through the specifications process. Because the northern subpopulation of the northern anchovy is currently lightly fished and effort has been inconsistent over time, it was determined that using a catch time series as a way of setting the OFL was not appropriate as it likely was an unreliable indicator of stock status. Therefore, the best available scientific information on the population and biology of northern subpopulation northern anchovy was compiled to develop an OFL. The available information included two separate estimates of biomass; the average of these two estimates was approximately 130,000 mt. After reviewing this information, the SSC recommended that the OFL be set by multiplying the average of these two biomass estimates (130,000 mt), by an FMSY 0.3, which is also the FMSY value for Pacific mackerel. This is appropriate because, biologically, anchovy populations are likely to be as or more productive than Pacific mackerel. This calculation results in an OFL of 39,000 mt and with the established uncertainty buffer of 75 percent, an ABC of 9,750 mt. Although the proposed ACL for this stock is equal to the ABC, to further account for uncertainty surrounding the reference points for this stock, anchovy's role as forage, and because annual catch levels have been sustainably below the ACL, the Pacific Council recommended, and NMFS is proposing, an ACT of 1,500 mt.\nMarket squid, because of its short life-cycle, falls under the statutory exception from the requirement to set ACLs and AMs. Section 303(a)(15) of the MSA states that the requirement for ACLs \u201cshall not apply to a fishery for species that has a life cycle of approximately 1 year unless the Secretary has determined the fishery is subject to overfishing of that species.\u201d Market squid have a lifecycle of less than 1 year and have not been determined to be subject to overfishing; therefore, an ACL is not required and is not being proposed for market squid.\nNMFS is not proposing to establish or change specifications for krill by this rulemaking. Krill are a prohibited harvest species. The targeting, harvesting and transshipment of krill are all explicitly prohibited; therefore, the ACL for krill is zero. Because the harvest level is zero, setting an OFL or ABC for krill would serve no function and is not being proposed in this rule.\nIf the proposed ACL and/or ACT levels are reached, or are expected to be reached, for one of these fisheries, the directed fishery would be closed until the beginning of the next fishing season. The NMFS West Coast Regional Administrator would publish a notice in the Federal Register announcing the date of any such closure. Additionally, nearing or exceeding one of these ACLs or the ACT would trigger a review of whether the fishery should be moved into the actively managed category of the FMP.\nPursuant to section 304(b)(1)(A) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the NMFS Assistant Administrator has determined that this proposed rule is consistent with the CPS FMP, other provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, and other applicable law, subject to further consideration after public comment.\nThe Chief Counsel for Regulation of the Department of Commerce certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration (SBA) that this proposed rule, if adopted, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, for the following reasons:\nThe primary action being implemented through this rule as it relates to potential economic impacts on small entities is the establishment of multi-year ACLs for the two sub-stocks of northern anchovy and for jack mackerel in the U.S. EEZ off the Pacific coast. The CPS FMP and its implementing regulations require NMFS to set ACLs for these fisheries based on the harvest control rules in the FMP.\nOn June 12, 2014, the SBA issued an interim final rule revising the small business size standards for several industries effective July 14, 2014 (79 FR 33647). The rule increased the size standard for Finfish Fishing from $19.0 to 20.5 million, Shellfish Fishing from $5.0 to 5.5 million, and Other Marine Fishing from $7.0 to 7.5 million. 79 FR 33650, 33656 (June 12, 2014). NMFS conducted its analysis for this action in light of the new size standards.\nThe entities that would be affected by the proposed action are the vessels that harvest jack mackerel and northern anchovy as part of the West Coast CPS purse seine fleet. Jack mackerel and northern anchovy are components of the CPS purse seine fishery off the U.S. West Coast, which generally fishes a complex of species, including Pacific sardine, Pacific mackerel and market squid. Currently there are 58 vessels permitted in the Federal CPS limited entry fishery off California. Annually 28 to 45 (average 39) of these CPS vessels landed anchovy and jack mackerel over the last five years. Approximately 26 baitfish licenses are issued annually in the state of Washington to harvest northern anchovy. Since 2009, the state of Oregon has not required a permit to harvest anchovy in Oregon waters. Jack mackerel is currently not fished in Oregon and Washington.\nThe average annual per vessel revenue in 2013 for the West Coast CPS finfish small purse seine fleet, as well as the few vessels that target anchovy off of Oregon and Washington, was below $20.5 million; therefore, all of these vessels are considered small businesses under the SBA size standards. Because each affected vessel is a small business, this proposed rule has an equal effect on all of these small entities, and therefore will impact a substantial number of these small entities in the same manner. The corresponding annual revenues from these species averaged to about $60,000 and $653,000, for jack mackerel and anchovy respectively.\nTo evaluate whether this proposed rule could potentially reduce the profitability of the affected vessels, NMFS compared current and average recent historical landings to the proposed ACLs. The proposed multi-year ACL (maximum fishing level for each year) for the northern anchovy central subpopulation is 25,000 mt and the proposed northern subpopulation ACL is 9,750 mt. In 2014, 10,511 mt of the northern anchovy central subpopulation and 112 mt of northern anchovy northern subpopulation were landed. The annual average harvest from 2004 to 2014 for the central and northern subpopulations of northern anchovy is 7,300 mt and 270 mt, respectively. The proposed jack mackerel ACL is 31,000 mt. In 2014, approximately 1,800 mt of jack mackerel were landed and average annual landings of jack mackerel over the last ten years is 549 mt. Prior landings of these stocks have been well below the proposed ACLs. Therefore, although the establishment of ACLs for these stocks is considered a new management measure for these fisheries, based on current and historical landings of these stocks, this proposed action will not result in changes in current fishery operations. As a result, it is unlikely that the ACLs proposed in this rule will limit the profitability of the fleets catching these stocks and thus would not impose a significant economic impact.\nThe economic impact to the fleet from the proposed action cannot be viewed in isolation. CPS finfish vessels typically harvest a number of other species, including Pacific sardine, Pacific mackerel, squid, and tuna, making these fisheries only components of a multi-species CPS fishery. Vessels rely on multiple species for profitability because each CPS stock is highly associated with different ocean conditions and different time periods, and so are harvested at various times throughout the year. Because each species responds to ocean conditions in its own way, not all CPS stocks are likely to be abundant at the same time; therefore as abundance levels and markets fluctuate, the CPS fishery as a whole relies on a group of species for annual revenues. Accordingly, even if the revenue derived from the specific e fisheries addressed in this proposed rule decline, such a decline will have only a small impact, if at all, on the profits of CPS fishery vessels.\nPursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act and the SBA's June 20, 2013 and June 12, 2014 final rules (78 FR 37398 and 79 FR 33647, respectively), this certification was developed for this action using the SBA's revised size standards. All entities subject to this action are small entities as defined by both the former, lower size standards and the revised size standards. Because each affected vessel is a small business, this proposed action is considered to equally affect all of these small entities in the same manner. Based on the disproportionality and profitability analysis above, the proposed action, if adopted, will not have adverse or disproportional economic impact on these small business entities. As a result, an Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is not required, and none has been prepared.\nThere are no reporting, recordkeeping, or other compliance requirements required by this proposed rule. Additionally, no other Federal rules duplicate, overlap or conflict with this proposed rule.\nDated: November 17, 2015. Samuel D.

This meeting will be open to the public.\nThe meeting will take place on Friday, December 4, 2015, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The meeting may adjourn early if all business is finished.\nShawne McGibbon, General Counsel (Designated Federal Officer), Administrative Conference of the United States, Suite 706 South, 1120 20th Street NW., Washington, DC 20036; Telephone 202-480-2088; email [email protected].\nAgenda: The Assembly will consider three proposed recommendations as described below:\nTechnical Assistance by Federal Agencies in the Legislative Process. This recommendation offers best practices for agencies when providing Congress with technical drafting assistance. It is intended to apply to situations in which Congress originates the draft legislation and asks an agency to review and provide expert technical feedback on the draft without necessarily taking an official substantive position. The recommendation urges agencies and Congress to engage proactively in mutually beneficial outreach and education. It highlights the practice of providing congressional requesters with redline drafts showing how proposed bills would affect existing law; suggests that agencies consider ways to involve appropriate agency experts in the process; and urges agencies to maintain a strong working relationship between legislative affairs and legislative counsel offices.\nDeclaratory Orders. This recommendation identifies contexts in which agencies should consider the use of declaratory orders in administrative adjudications. It also highlights best practices relating to the use of declaratory orders, including explaining the agency's procedures for issuing declaratory orders, ensuring adequate opportunities for public participation in the proceedings, responding to petitions for declaratory orders in a timely manner, and making declaratory orders and other dispositions of petitions readily available to the public.\nDesigning Federal Permitting Programs. This recommendation describes different types of permitting systems and provides factors for agencies to consider when designing or reviewing permitting programs. The recommendation discusses both \u201cgeneral\u201d permits (which are granted so long as certain requirements are met) and \u201cspecific\u201d permits (which involve fact-intensive, case-by-case determinations), as well as intermediate or hybrid permitting programs. It encourages agencies that adopt permitting systems to design them so as to minimize burdens on the agency and regulated entities while maintaining required regulatory protections.\nAdditional information about the proposed recommendations and the order of the agenda, as well as other materials related to the meeting, can be found at the 64th Plenary Session page on the Conference's Web site: (http://www.acus.gov/meetings-and-events/plenary-meeting/64th-plenary-session).\nPublic Participation: The Conference welcomes the attendance of the public at the meeting, subject to space limitations, and will make every effort to accommodate persons with disabilities or special needs.

WIC provides Federal grants to States for supplemental foods, health care referrals, and nutrition education for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to age five who are found to be at nutritional risk. NSLP is a federally assisted meal program operating in approximately 100,000 public and non\u2010profit private schools and residential childcare institutions. School districts that participate in NSLP receive cash subsidies and donated commodities from USDA for each meal they serve. SBP is also a federally assisted meal program operating in over 89,000 public and nonprofit private schools and residential childcare institutions. FFVP provides free fresh fruits and vegetables to students in participating elementary schools during the school day. The fresh fruits and vegetables are provided separately from the lunch or breakfast meal, in one or more areas of the school. When school is not in session, the SFSP provides meals to all children under 19 years of age at approved SFSP sites in areas with significant concentrations of low-income children. CACFP subsidizes nutritious meals and snacks served to children and adults in participating day care facilities. Meals also are provided to children in emergency shelters and eligible after school programs. The Food Distribution Programs include the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), and The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP). CSFP provides nutritious USDA commodity foods and administrative funds to supplement the diets of low-income seniors at least 60 years of age.1 FDPIR provides USDA commodity foods to low-income households, including the elderly living on Indian reservations, and to Native American families residing in designated areas near reservations. TEFAP provides USDA commodity foods and administrative funds to States, which then provide the food to local agencies that they have selected, usually food banks, which then distribute the food to soup kitchens and food pantries that directly serve the public.\n1\u2009CSFP originally included supplemental foods for pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, infants, and children, but changes in the program turned the focus towards low-income adults age 60 and older. Women, infants and children who were certified as of February 6, 2014, may continue receiving CSFP benefits until they are no longer eligible under the program rules that existed in 2014.\nThe Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-296, Sec. 305) mandates programs under its authorization to cooperate with USDA program research and evaluation activities. Traditionally, FNS conducts program-specific large studies to collect information on numerous features of each program. Such studies often take several years to complete. The Quick Response Surveys provide a system for rapidly collecting current information on a specific feature or issue, and, therefore, enable FNS to administer the programs more effectively.\nFollowing standard OMB requirements, FNS will submit a change request to OMB for each data collection activity undertaken under this generic clearance. The respondents will be identified at the time that each change request is submitted to OMB. FNS will provide OMB with the instruments and supporting materials describing the research project and specific pre-testing activities.\nAffected Public: Respondent categories of affected public and the corresponding study participants will include: State, local and Tribal agencies. Respondents will include: (1) State Program Directors including WIC State agency directors, WIC State nutrition education and breastfeeding coordinators, directors of the Child Nutrition programs (NSLP/SBP, FFVP), directors of SFSP and CACFP, directors of State Distributing agencies (CSFP, TEFAP) and Indian Tribal Organization contacts for FDPIR; (2) Local-level program administrators including School Food Authorities, Local Education Agencies, Schools, Local WIC Agencies and Sites, SFSP Sponsors and Sites, TEFAP Eligible Recipient Agencies (ERAs), TEFAP Emergency Food Organizations (EFOs), and CACFP Sponsors and Providers.\nNumber of Respondents: 21,023 annually.\nFrequency of Responses: 1.98 times per year.\nAverage Burden Hours per Response: 0.28 hours.\nTotal Annual Burden Hours: 11,597 hours.

        "raw_content": "Spending Other People\u2019s Money\nSomeone bumped into my car in a parking lot but wasn\u2019t decent enough to leave a note. The hood of my car was damaged. I went to two reputable body shops. One quoted $850; the other quoted $740. As body work goes, it\u2019s a small job. Because the bill isn\u2019t much more than my deductible, I decided to pay out of pocket and not bother with an insurance claim.\nBoth body shops told me if insurance is involved, the repair bill will be over $2,000. They will have to fix it \"the right way.\" Instead of just repairing the hood, they will have to replace the hood and repaint the fenders to match the color. Both also told me I will not notice any difference with my untrained eyes if I only have them repair and repaint the damaged area. Since I\u2019m paying the bill, I chose the lower-cost option.\nWhat if the driver who caused the damage gave me his or her insurance information? Guess which option I will choose? Fix it the right way, of course, however marginal the quality difference may be. I don\u2019t have to care if I\u2019m spending other people\u2019s money.\nThink about it for a moment where this \"spending other people\u2019s money\" phenomenon exists. It happens all the time in health care. Although I don\u2019t watch much TV, I\u2019ve seen plenty of ads for powered wheelchairs because \"Medicare pays for it.\" If you give people money, they won\u2019t necessarily use it to buy a powered wheelchair. But if Medicare pays for it and there\u2019s no way to get paid cash if you don\u2019t ask for one, then why not? And you wonder why health care is so expensive.\nVery true\u2026surprised nobody commented on this article.\nMaybe that is why this country is so in debt. The gov\u2019t is spending other people\u2019s money.\nMaybe there are not many comments because the conclusion is so obviously correct.\nGreat point! A friend of mine was just telling me about how he\u2019s become a conscious consumer of health care as a result of a cheap health care plan. The doctor told him, \u201cI\u2019m 90% certain this isn\u2019t ___ but I\u2019m going to run a test just in case.\u201d Since my friend knew he was footing the bill for any lab work he said NO THANKS! Maybe we need more lousy insurance plans instead of cadillac plans.\nmoneybum says\nNo, you would not get it fixed the expensive way. You would have his or her insurance issue you a check for the estimated repair and a rental car. Then you repair it the cheap way and pocket the difference.\nSomeone once hit me from behind. I called her insurance and they sent and insurance adjuster. He said I have two options. I can get it repaired and the pay directly the garage or they can pay me an estimate. I opted for the estimate and pocketed the a $500 profit. Their estimates are always for thorough repairs.",

        "title": "Greece: 25 trans women detained during large-scale police crackdown - The F-Word",
        "raw_content": "Greece: 25 trans women detained during large-scale police crackdown\nThe Greek Transgender Support Association has published its response to the detention of 25 trans women in Athens during a recent, large-scale police crackdown.\nVia press release from the Greek Transgender Support Association:\nSubject: Police detention of Transgender Individuals during \u2018Xenios Zeus\u2019 Operations\nThe Greek Transgender Support Association, a recognized NGO for the support of the rights of the trans community in Greece, is hereby strongly condemning the massive police detention of twenty five (25) trans women on Thursday, August 9th, during the crackdown police operation \u201cXenios Zeus\u201d.\nSpecifically, on the night of Thursday, August 9th, during a massive police crackdown, 25 trans individuals were taken and detained at the division of Central Police Station of Athens. They were not given sufficient explanation why they were being taken. They were forced to undergo an HIV test, administered by a Center for Disease Control (C.D.C.) doctor, were subsequently found to be HIV-negative and released afterwards.\nWe, the Greek Transgender Support Association, express our deepest concern, and outright condemnation of the C.D.C.-assisted police crackdown operations. Especially since they target, among others, one of the more vulnerable minorities, namely trans individuals, who are deprived of basic human rights such as the right to work, be insured and access the health services, owing to the Greek State\u2019s refusal to protect trans rights.\nWe also deem the forced and obligatory tests by the C.D.C. to be in breach of basic human rights. This is because the way the tests are performed, coupled with the complete lack of deontology and the specific conditions under which they take place, are not those of a European country nor of a just State.\nAt the same time, we question the recent ruling of the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA), according to which the HDPA calls itself unauthorised to judge the recent and obvious violation by the state of personal data, in the case of the publicization of the identities of hiv-positive people. The HDPA invoked the Spearation of Powers, but at the same time countradicts itself by proposing amendations to the legislature.\nWe, the Greek Transgender Support Association, express our solidarity towards the hiv-positive individuals who are being prosecuted, and condemns the police crackdown operations, as well as the involvement of the CDC, for endangering and creating abject conditions for the trans community. Furthermore, we express our complete opposition of all police operations that violate human rights based on nationality, race, gender, religious or other beliefs, sexual orientation, and gender identity. We demand that greek legislation protects gender identity by aligning with the Ruling 2008/913/\u0394EY regarding the fight against all kinds of discrimination and racism.\nWe are in active cooperation with grassroots and NGO organizations inside Greece, as well as European organizations for the rights of the trans community. We will defend, in every legal way, the dignity and human rights of trans people.\nFrom news reports, it seems that this was part of a large-scale operation during which some 6,000 people were detained.\nOfficers stopped mostly African and Asian people in the street for identification checks. Most were only briefly detained, but about 1,600 were arrested for illegal entry and sent to holding centres pending deportation. [Source]\nIt should be remembered that this comes at a time when the Greek economy is facing its most severe crisis since 1974, and the consequent austerity package demanded by the EU and the IMF has resulted in rioting and social unrest. Against this backdrop, there has been a worrying rise in popularity of the Golden Dawn, a right-wing extremist political organisation. In this light, it is perhaps no surprise \u2013 although still by no means acceptable \u2013 that there should be a backlash which combines racism, transphobia and sexism on such a large scale. I was going to close with a smartass remark about the fate of a country which, for over 2,400 years, has taken pride in claiming it invented democracy, but my irony meter broke.\nImage made by Helen from images found at Wikipedia (here and here).

The raids are not confined solely to trans women or any other particular group, but to any group the Greek authorities find \u201cundesirable\u201d.\nThis report includes a video showing the scale of the police operation at a railway station in Athens on August 9th: http://infomobile.w2eu.net/2012/08/09/shocking-images-the-sweep-operation-in-athens-continues-on-august-9-2012/\nThis report is about a raid on August 2nd: http://infomobile.w2eu.net/2012/08/05/massive-sweep-operation-in-athens-since-august-2-2012/\nIn April and May, hundreds of women who the police thought were migrants, sex workers, homeless, or drug addicted, were arrested and forcibly tested for HIV. 29 women who tested positive for HIV had their names, photographs, and HIV status made public, and were labelled as prostitutes in the national papers. Up to 35 women were then charged with \u201cmalicious intent\u201d against men who buy sex (who of course are presented as innocent).",

        "raw_content": "5 Reasons To Move Into A 55+ Community\nHere are five of the most common reasons people say they like living in 55+ communities:\nWhen you want to turn up the dial on your social life, adult communities offer nonstop activities. You can go to all of them, some of them or none of them. Unlike having a spouse who likes to plan your activities, you won\u2019t get an argument from anyone if you don\u2019t want to go to square dancing, duplicate bridge or art class.\nBeloved Amenities And Affiliations\nSome adult communities are built around amenities like golf courses, tennis courts, fitness centers or a marina. Choose one that features the amenity you most enjoy and you\u2019ll be surrounded by neighbors who share your passion.\nThe most secure 55+ communities are gated and have visitors check in with a guard. Some of the most well-known senior communities aren\u2019t gated, but they\u2019re safe compared to non-age restricted neighborhoods.\nTired of trimming your plants, watering or mowing the lawn? Most 55+ communities have a homeowners association that takes care of maintenance for you. In a condominium, your exterior maintenance is likely included in your monthly condo fee. With someone else doing your chores, you have more time for all those activities.\nAs we age, our chances of having a disability increase. While only about a quarter of those aged 45 to 64 have a disability, about half of those aged 65 and up do, CDC data show.\nConsidering a move to an adult community? Click to contact The Harelik Team and we\u2019ll show you your options and give you an idea of your home\u2019s current value.\nWondering if you\u2019d enjoy living in an age-restricted community?

I\u2019d be concerned for them, I\u2019d want them to find relief. I know all of this, but I can\u2019t help it. I\u2019m even beginning to think there\u2019s something rather manic about the way I operate in the world. One day I see the potential and promise of everything, and a moment later I\u2019m wishing I could just kill myself and just be done with this stupid life \u2013 without all the fallout. It\u2019s always my son and my mother who stop me from taking that thought any further. But I swear there are days where I\u2019d give that option some serious consideration, were it not for those two people \u2013 that, and my basic cowardice. The same unfortunate trait which is causing me to think about such things in the first place. I\u2019m so much more afraid than I\u2019d thought.\nThe day started out with a sobering visit from a geothermal heating and cooling guy. The man himself, the owner of the company came out because his son, scheduled to visit, had thrown out his back. I\u2019m glad that Senior came instead of Junior \u2013 he brought with him the advice of not only an HVAC guy, but that of a businessman, a property owner and landlord, and father to five kids. He had plenty of wisdom and advice for me, down to the smallest, most helpful details. I\u2019m glad he showed up first, because he applied the brakes of reality on my fuzzy future. For one, he made clear that I faced a money pit. And that I\u2019d not only need a business plan for potential investors or donors, but until that time came I\u2019d need the Studio to generate some income. A lot of income. And I\u2019d also need a loan. Because it was going to take a lot of money to get the place back to square, let alone ahead. He suggested I bring everything to a halt until I got that stuff figured out. Made sense of course. I\u2019d seen my former parents-in-law throw money \u2013 hundreds of thousands of dollars, millions even \u2013 at dozens of projects through the years, little of which ended up paying for themselves, let alone generating cash flow. I\u2019d seen what a hazy vision and a dash of romance could do. And it seemed I might be doing this myself \u2013 putting the cart before the horse, building a garage for a dream car that wasn\u2019t even mine yet. When pressed for examples of revenue sources, I had lots of maybes but no definites. Lots of what ifs but no contracts, no leases, no programs to even consider. I wished I hadn\u2019t sounded so lost, so unsure, but the truth is I am. I have a spark, a hope \u2013 and it glows so very bright sometimes \u2013 but it\u2019s founded on very little. It\u2019s not founded on studies or research, it\u2019s founded on intuition and desire. And I just don\u2019t know if that\u2019s enough.\n\u201cThis was your father\u2019s dream\u201d the man went on to say as we mulled over the pros and cons, \u201cnot yours, right?\u201d I had to answer that it was. \u201cAnd he realized it, he made it happen, right?\u201d he pushed. I had to admit that he had, and that he\u2019d even seen it to a satisfying conclusion. He cautioned me not to move ahead on sentiment alone. Not to follow my father\u2019s dream, but to follow my own. But as I sat there taking it all in, I realized something rather surprising: I myself had no dream. At least no specific, concrete vision. What I did have was a feeling, a way in which I envisioned feeling in my dream life. While not a vision per se, it had some specifics. Just maybe not the nitty gritty bones of the whole thing, but nonetheless a general scenario\u2026 For over a decade one thing has been foremost in my mind: I want a simple life. A life free of panic, a life full of friends and good food and hopefully travel. A beautiful garden, and a tidy, organized home to come back to at the end of my adventures. I\u2019ve always been able to see it in my mind\u2019s eye. The Studio simply rounded it out. Instead of playing with the musicians I missed so, I\u2019d have them here when they were touring. Instead of seeing the world, I\u2019d have the world come and see me. I\u2019d be host to all sorts of people, and life would be full of impomptu late night jams and dinners around a big, inviting table. And I\u2019d be hostess to it all. But in reality I knew that I couldn\u2019t reconcile running a concert venue with a simple life. I\u2019d spent years despising all the extra time and visiting required of my ex husband\u2019s career as a non-stop working musician. And I\u2019d hated the relentless nature of owning a nightclub. And while I loved having rehearsals, dinners and parties at our home, I would cherish the privacy in between those events. And I needed a lot of alone down time to refresh myself for the next episode. Plus as I\u2019ve gotten older, I\u2019ve found that I desire even more space and time \u2013 and quiet. So what the hell have I been thinking here? As I heard myself talk about what I envisioned, I felt a torturous mixture of excitement and dread. I can\u2019t explain it, all I know is that this man\u2019s real-world red flags had me putting all of my previously delirious thinking through a filter of reality, and now I was feeling sick to my stomach. And panicky. Great. Almost out of Xanax, and just entering the fire. Just fucking great.\nIt was still good to hear. It was all stuff I needed to seriously consider. Absolutely valuable input. And then came the chimney sweep.\nA well-known local peace and renewable resources activist, he had been recommended by a friend for his advice on my situation \u2013 and he had his own list of considerations I might make in my process. And being a firm believer in looking towards a responsible way to provide for the future energy needs of the planet rather than beating a soon-to-be-dead horse of dirty fuel-burning, I really wanted to hear all he had to say. Here was another take on things \u2013 a perspective that while not entirely at the other end of the spectrum \u2013 certainly one that represented a different way to approach my situation. And his way made sense. Equal sense. As he spoke I began to feel that signature out-of-body sort of sensation that precludes panic attacks, and although ironically he was a man of great heart and compassion, I began to squirm, to feel the inner terror beginning to build. He was clearly giving more good advice; keep things simple, do only the repairs absolutely necessary, don\u2019t overdo. Yet still, I continued to feel the pre-panic sensations building. I stared at my feet, I feigned things to pick up and examine from the floor, I created the pretense of searching for a bottle of water in my car in order to distract myself from the fear that was welling up inside of me. I was trapped in this goddam situation, and I had no one to save me now. My brother was ill, my mother was old, and I was a single mother with no savings, no resources, and now, no job. What was to become of me? I felt it all becoming my burden alone. And I am in no place to bear such a burden. Most people think I\u2019m strong and resilient. Hell, I\u2019ve never even had a real fucking job. I might be capable of many things, but apparently making a decent living is not one of them. And it\u2019s becoming ever more highlighted by the shit that\u2019s sitting in my path.\nWhat now? I know what I\u2019d do if I had money \u2013 but what even then? Is having a state-of-the-art facility enough? I imagine myself enticing already-existing programs to my gorgeous little space in the woods, but in reality, who the hell will want it? I imagine renting the space to yoga instructors, to after school programs, leasing it out for recitals, concerts\u2026 but I know the reality of this all, one-time events are not a reliable stream of income. I can\u2019t be assured that they\u2019ll cover my costs of running the place. And certainly, if my mom uses the rest of her savings to make the upgrades, I can\u2019t be assured that she \u2013 I or my brother \u2013 will ever recoup the costs. And I still have to live. Maybe another forty years. Good Lord help me if that\u2019s the case. I haven\u2019t a fucking dime to my name, and my electric bill is still behind five hundred dollars from this last brutal winter.\nI\u2019m ready to go to bed. To forget that the raccoon stole the bait from the humane trap and escaped, as did the chipmunk in the kitchen just now. To forget that I have eleven baby chicks running wild, chased mercilessly by the grown flock and flung far and wide over the yard\u2026 to forget that I\u2019m twenty pounds more than I was last year at this time, to forget that I haven\u2019t kissed a man since I last kissed my husband, more than six years ago. Having Elihu gone is making things feel more dire, I\u2019m pretty sure of it. And it\u2019s much easier to contemplate ending things when he\u2019s not around. But he\u2019s coming back, and I need to be his cheerleader in life, not the other way around. How can I be? I admit, this time I\u2019m not sure how to turn things around. Secretly (or not so secretly, as it\u2019s here now) I consider a life off the map, anonymous and forgotten. Might I just drop out? Secede from Facebook, stop returning emails, fail to have my piano tuned, or show up to volunteer at school? What would happen then? History is full of once-famous people disappearing from society, going bankrupt, crazy or just plain missing\u2026 Could I pull it off? Seriously, who the fuck would miss me? I have no real life here; my only social life is a virtual one, and I seldom relish waking up in the morning. I scold myself as soon as I begin to think like this. I\u2019m not being tortured, I\u2019m not hungry (look at my waistline), I\u2019m clothed and have a roof over my head. And a piano. And the internet. I\u2019m ahead of probably 90% of the planet. So what the hell is with me??\nYears ago, when I broke my neck (C6 and C7, which subsequently fused and created what I like to call a C13), I was confined to a bed for several months, while tongs, stuck into quarter inch holes in my skull held me in place and stretched me out while I healed. I\u2019d been experiencing horrific panic attacks just before my car accident, and yet when held down in place in bed \u2013 in what might have looked like a torturous position in which to live \u2013 my panic ceased. I was too concerned in the beginning with my very survival to even notice, but a few days after I became stable and began to understand my situation more fully, I did notice it. I hadn\u2019t had a single panic episode. And man, if ever there were a reason to panic, breaking one\u2019s neck and being told by one\u2019s neurosurgeon that you might never walk again might be legitimate cause for alarm. But I came to realize something\u2026 that when the real shit hit the real fan, my body knew what its priorities were. It knew the situation was for real \u2013 unlike that self-induced, self-created panic attack bullshit. It was revelatory. Here I was, with every reason to panic for real \u2013 and yet I wasn\u2019t. I\u2019m not saying I wasn\u2019t concerned \u2013 I was \u2013 but it was a sober, alert sort of concern. It made all the sense in the world. Yet when my neck was healed, and I was better and finally off to college\u2026 the panic attacks returned, worse than before.\nI know what\u2019s at the root of the panic. That\u2019s easy. It\u2019s a feeling of being out of control, of having lost the power over your life. It\u2019s a physical manifestation of fear and uncertainty. Maybe what I need is a real illness or injury to get my physiological priorities in order again. Hell, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t. What I do know that it will either take a mountain of focus and energy for me to get my life in order, or it will tank on its own. Christ, at a time when most of my contemporaries are looking forward to retiring, I\u2019m only just beginning to figure out what it is that I\u2019m supposed to be doing here on this stupid planet. Hell, even when I did have a job it hardly paid eleven bucks an hour after taxes. Before the panic returned it was worth it \u2013 I saw my kid every day and got paid to do the only thing I actually kind of know how to do. But now, with the Studio, the time it\u2019s going to demand of me and now the element of pure fear that it\u2019s added to my life\u2026 I remind myself again that the burden outweighs its worth. And besides, the little extra income I made disqualified me for food stamps and even Medicaid. Crazy, but it\u2019s really safer to stay living in controlled poverty than just an inch above water level, gasping for air. Shit. I never expected to be in such a place in my life at my age. Never.\nObviously, this is a situation that\u2019s far from being resolved. Somehow, in my slightly manic state, I will pull myself up for a bit, knock out a few more tasks and make an inch of progress before doubt and panic consume me again. My cellar is full of water and moldy boxes, I guess I can spend a few hours working on that. At least there can be some tangible results from my efforts, which would sure feel good. Because right now, no matter how much more I do, I just don\u2019t see an ending to things. For the moment I cannot begin to picture my future. There\u2019s still too much more in the way.\nA happier post-script to remind myself of what we did at the Studio only a few years ago.\nI gotta remember that we can do this again\u2026 this past run of bad luck has just been a detour, we can get there again\u2026 Right??\nTip Off January 26, 2014\nTags: backyard chickens, blogger, musician, only child, pianist, self employed, single mom, single mother, single parent household, small farm, writer\nThe sidebar of my home page shows a tip jar, and if one should click on it, it\u2019s possible to leave a donation. The icon was created and installed as a gift by a woman I\u2019d only ever met online; it was truly a case of the kindness of strangers. (Visit this wonderful blogger, writer and kind stranger here.) I\u2019d long wanted a simple means by which folks could leave the smallest amount in exchange for the enjoyment of reading \u2013 the cost of a cup of coffee \u2013 something I myself would happily offer to a friend. Something simple, something that wouldn\u2019t be of any great hardship to most folks. My goals were always what I believed to be realistic; I never held out hopes for a great stream of income here \u2013 but that I can count on one hand the number of gifts I\u2019ve received through the jar (minus a thumb, that is) during the eight months or so that it\u2019s been up. And that has been surprising. Now you four kind folks who have left something there (and given far more than I ever intended when I had the vehicle installed) know who you are. While simple thanks aren\u2019t really enough, I\u2019ve conveyed my gratitude, and please know that I\u2019m still thankful.\nWhile I have never been so naive as to expect to generate a stream of income from this blog \u2013 I do admit that I\u2019d secretly hoped to buy a box of printer paper, pay something towards the month\u2019s electric bill or fill the tank in my car just once with some blog-related proceeds. But aside from the gifts of those four generous and kind friends, not a penny has found its way into the jar. I\u2019d hoped to make it as easy as possible for folks to leave a quick dollar or some pocket change (while keeping in mind that Mr. Paypal still finds his way to 2.9% of the donation plus 30 cents per transaction. Sigh). I\u2019m not good at talking about money, it makes me slightly uncomfortable. My folks came from a culture where it was not spoken of. Maybe it\u2019s helped contribute to the situation I\u2019m in now, I don\u2019t know. What I do know is that I am good at living frugally, but still I\u2019m beginning to wish that my writing might net me something by way of a modest economic return. I write cuz it\u2019s what I do\u2026 but still.\nI think the expected return on a direct mail campaign is something like 2% \u2013 and that might even be ambitious. But the thousand or so subscribers to this blog are not merely random recipients of an ad insert. I know folks aren\u2019t checking in with us here at The Hillhouse the way they are with the trendy Downton Abbey or their beloved Facebook feeds, but the readership does continue to grow \u2013 while the pot does not.\nThe health of my tip jar won\u2019t in any way affect the content of my writing. I\u2019m clearly not motivated by generating income here, but given the hours I have spent at my craft, I sure wouldn\u2019t mind some return on the investment. But, as I said in the very beginning, I\u2019m not here with any expectations. That I have a thousand followers is, in of itself, rather unbelievable to me. Some days it\u2019s what helps motivate me to get out of bed. Other days I think it might be in part responsible for my resurfaced panic attacks. !! Either way, the idea of each visitor leaving a dollar in my virtual jar gives me a tiny thrill\u2026 Can you imagine? Wow. That would take care of the electric bill for a couple of months! Lest I appear to be using flagrant passive-aggressive techniques here, let me clearly state my hopes for the future of our tip jar in no uncertain terms:\nIf you\u2019ve enjoyed reading of our adventures here at The Hillhouse, I hope you\u2019ll please consider leaving a donation in the tip jar on a future visit.\nMy deepest appreciation for your continued friendship and emotional support!\nA Post Script: In an effort to keep this issue living and relevant, I may re-post this or another such reminder from time-to-time. Please do tell me if and when it should become too tedious. Let\u2019s hope it becomes effective long before we reach that point. !!",

        "title": "Selected Stories by Kjell Askildsen | The Short Review",
        "raw_content": "by Kell Askildsen Translated by Sean Kinsella\nDalkey Archive, 2014\n\u201cThe sun was nearing the mountains in the west; a haze lingered over the town, and there wasn\u2019t the slightest nip in the air. I noticed I was reluctant to go home, and suddenly I thought, and it was a distinct thought: if only she were dead.\u201c\nAbout the author: Born in 1929, Kjell Askildsen published his first collection of short stories at the age of twenty-four. He has written six novels and nine short story collections. His books have twice won the Norwegians Critics Prize for Literature, and he has won numerous other awards.\nA kitchen, a veranda, an upstairs bedroom, a vegetable garden, cigarettes and glasses of wine. These elements keep recurring in Askildsen\u2019s minimalist stories. They all feature a male character who has his secret thoughts, his self-hatred or sexual fantasies, and who has a strong craving to escape from being observed. These male protagonists cling to their deviances as to the last vestiges of a real self. The banal minutiae of domestic life are related in such a way that they become tinged with unexpressed anxiety.\nAskildsen\u2019s prose has the subtle power of seeping out from the page and shifting the reader\u2019s perception of the world, narrowing it down, drawing out the oxygen. A gap opens up between action and awareness, a space for doubt and redundant self-awareness. Or put another way, the stories can get you down.\nIn The Dogs of Thessalonika the narrator and his wife Beate drink their morning coffee in the garden. Beate hums to herself, she throws a cigarette butt in the wrong place. The man walks down the garden and out the gate, and sits on a tree stump, almost concealed. Beate calls in his direction and when he doesn\u2019t answer she pretends not to have seen him. Later he leaves the house without saying anything and walks all the way down to the fjord. Norway is famous for its beautiful landscapes, but through the eyes of this first-person narrator the only description is: \u201cI had the fjord and the distant, wooded hillsides in front of me.\u201d\nOn the way across the fields he casually thinks: \u201cif only she were dead\u201d. Back home again there is more juking and covert observation and restless walking on his part. As evening falls they bring a bottle of wine out to the garden. They reminisce about a vivid moment together some years ago on holidays. Beate gets up from her chair in the semi-darkness and stands behind him. In a scene of uncanny realism, when she puts her hands on his neck he starts forward in terror, perhaps thinking she will try to strangle him. Later both he and she seem to deny the significance of that moment. He feels compelled the next day to apologise for starting, but even bringing up the topic is to ascribe it significance.\nThis story perfectly captures a sense of horror pushed down below a thick blanket of domesticity. The men in these stories seem bereft. We don\u2019t know what has gone missing from their lives, or if they ever had other aspirations. They cherish their subversive thoughts, often only hinted at, but their only rebellious action is to drive down to the railway bar without telling the wife, or simply to hide in the trees out of sight.\nThere is much left unsaid in these fictions. At the risk of being flippant, in a style so marked by absence, the book must be judged by what is not in it. Is this ubiquitous angst due to something specific, as for example an incestuous desire in A Great Deserted Landscape? Is it a typically male problem of inability to communicate? Or is it a pointer to areas of human experience mapped out by the likes of Beckett and Hamsun? Are these men \u2018Last Men\u2019 \u2013 for whom everything is small and whose only purpose left is to have a little pleasure in life?\nIn A Great Deserted Landscape the protagonist is recovering from injuries received in a car crash that killed his wife. His mother and sister are looking after him. He thinks about how, when he is better, he will be all alone in the house. \u201c\u2026 there would be no one who\u2019d know when I was coming and going, and no one would know what I was up to. I wouldn\u2019t need to hide.\u201d At such points the reader is liable to laugh out loud. The humour is pitch black, if indeed it is intentional. For in general the authorial vision is restrained and clings to its brand of authenticity. The narrative perspective runs tangent to the perspective of these disaffected men.\nThe final story Everything Like Before is not like the ones before. The male character is more articulate, even expressing clearly his core syndrome: \u201cSlave, damned slave soul, every time you try to exact some justice for yourself, you collapse with compassion for your tormentor!\u201d The story is about a couple on holidays. Their age is not mentioned, but they are evidently in a relationship which has settled into a pattern. On a night out together Nina, seems hell-bent on provoking Carl. She gets drunk, and when a native man befriends the couple she openly flirts with him. Back at the guesthouse an argument flares and a drunk Nina tries to choke Carl. The next day they soberly discuss the topic. Carl is unable to get her to see their relationship has a problem. \u201cJesus, Carl. That\u2019s nothing to be getting worked up about, I was drunk. And after all, I didn\u2019t do anything wrong.\u201d Askildsen sets out the dynamics of this relationship with a cool neutrality, yet drawing the reader into taking sides.\nThese stories achieve perfection of a kind, and may make for uncomfortable reading. The style is so neutral it leaves lots of space for the reader\u2019s interpretation. But for some readers this pared-down style will be too much of a good thing.\nAbout the reviewer: Aiden O\u2019Reilly lived for nine years in Eastern Europe and is now based mainly in Dublin. He has worked variously as a mathematics lecturer, translator, building-site worker, and property magazine editor. His fiction has been published widely, including The Stinging Fly (x4), The Prairie Schooner, The Irish Times, and The Dublin Review (x3). In November 2008 he won the biannual McLaverty Prize for short stories. His debut short story collection Greetings, Hero was published by Honest Publishing in 2014\nThis entry was posted on February 20, 2015 by Diane Becker in reviews and tagged dalkey archive, KJELL ASKILDSEN, Selected Stories, short fiction, short story collection.\nhttps://wp.me/p2ILqN-sL",

        "raw_content": "Corey Stewart Introduces Medicaid Plan Offering Leeches And Rusted Cutlery\nHARRISONBURG, Va. \u2014 During a rally in downtown Harrisonburg yesterday, Republican gubernatorial candidate Corey Stewart unveiled his new, state-sponsored plan for health care, calling for the reintroduction of and reliance on medicinal leeches and kitchen cutlery.\nStewart, who recently proclaimed his admiration for the Confederacy at a rally in Roanoke, said the new plan, which has been dubbed \u201cAntebellum Healthcare,\u201d will be an answer to \u201cthe disastrous, tax-hungry plan of Obamacare,\u201d and will save citizens money by utilizing medicinal ideas that were regularly used before the Civil War.\n\u201cOur proposed Medicaid plan will offer Virginia citizens health care that was successfully used by our stalwart forefathers,\u201d Stewart explained, citing the use of such practices during the mid-19th century as a measure of its benefits. \u201cIt will also come at a lower cost with minimal premiums.\u201d\n\u201cLeeches and plantation cutlery kept health care costs low during the glorious times of the Confederacy. We\u2019re going to offer the people the same blood letting luxuries and care that was available to our brave soldiers who fought in the War of Northern Aggression.\u201d\nThe plan includes using leeches to drain excess blood from a patient\u2019s body. \u201cHell, these suckers could drain cancerous blood cells from someone,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cWe could finally have a cure.\u201d Other parts of the plan call for used kitchen cutlery to be utilized in surgical procedures. \u201cSo much money is spent on medicinal tools that just get thrown away after being used once,\u201d Stewart said. \u201cImagine what we would save if we just used our old forks and knives that only get used during the holidays? So what if the knives are a little rusty? The money we save could be used on extra soap or something.\u201d\nHealth insurance has long been a debated subject at a state and national level, with many arguing that current policies place too much financial burden on society as a whole. Stewart\u2019s new Medicaid plan would be a single-payer system in which users pay the state to fund leech breeding and foraging for excess kitchen cutlery.\nSally Demaire, a supporter of Stewart, says she welcomes a new state health care plan that comes at a lower cost to the individual.\n\u201cLeeches may be a bit slimy, but if it keeps me from having to pay taxes to ensure that everyone has affordable health care, I\u2019m in.\u201d\nOther parts of the plan called for the use of mercury to treat wounds and the introduction of traditional herbal medicines as the go-to drug for any and all kinds of illnesses.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab The Situation of Conformity\nHow Deceptive Advertising Preys Upon Our Minds \u00bb\nOn SSRN, you can now download the introductory chapter of Ideology, Psychology, and Law (published in 2012 by Oxford University Press and containing chapters from numerous Situationist Contributors and edited by Situationist Editor Jon Hanson).\nHere\u2019s a quick description.\nFormally, the law is based solely on reasoned analysis, devoid of ideological biases or unconscious influences. Judges claim to act as umpires applying the rules, not making them. They frame their decisions as straightforward applications of an established set of legal doctrines, principles, and mandates to a given set of facts. As most legal scholars understand, however, the impression that the legal system projects is largely an illusion. As far back as 1881, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. made a similar claim, writing that \u201cthe felt necessities of the time, the prevalent moral and political theories, intuitions of public policy, avowed or unconscious, even the prejudices which judges share with their fellow-men, have a good deal more to do than the syllogism in determining the rules by which men should be governed.\u201d\nMore than a century later, we are now much closer to understanding the mechanisms responsible for the gap between the formal face of the law and the actual forces shaping it. Over the last decade or so, political scientists and legal academics have begun studying the linkages between ideologies, on one hand, and legal principles and policy outcomes on the other. During that same period, mind scientists have turned to understanding the psychological sources of ideology. This book is the first to bring many of the world\u2019s experts on those topics together to examine the sometimes unsettling interactions between psychology, ideology, and law, and to better understand what, beyond and beneath the logic, animates the law.\nThis introductory chapter describes why this volume came together when it did and provides an overview of the general sections and the individual chapters and comments in the book. It begins with a brief, loose, and highly stylized history of the relationships between ideology, psychology, and law\u2014a history premised on the oversimplifying assertion that something changed around the year 2000.\nThis entry was posted on February 29, 2012 at 12:37 am\tand is filed under Abstracts, Book, Ideology, Law, Legal Theory, Situationist Contributors, Social Psychology.

        "raw_content": "50 Years On: 1963/64 November \u2013 Swindon in the big time for the first time\nThroughout this season Mike Minihane will be taking a look back at Swindon Town\u2019s first season in the \u2018big time\u2019, following the promotion to Division Two for the 1963/64 season. Mike continues with a review of November 1963\u2026\nTop of the Charts \u2013 You\u2019ll Never Walk Alone by Gerry and the Pacemakers (for the entire month)\nNovember 1963 promised to be a tough one with league games against some high quality opposition, as well as a League Cup Third Round tie with First Division West Ham.\nFirst up was a home league game against Southampton, which turned out to be a bit of a Paine. We didn\u2019t like Southampton. Their fans always seemed to think their team were bigger and better than they were. Also their star player, Terry Paine, particularly annoyed us; firstly because he was a good player and secondly because he obviously knew it.\nQuite a few Saints fans had made the trip to the County Ground, contributing to a gate of almost 22,000. There had been heavy rain and the state of the pitch helped us take an early lead; as a back-pass stuck in a puddle and Jack Smith stabbed home a predatory goal after eight minutes. All was looking good at this point but Southampton started to get a foothold in the game and Terry Paine started to show why he\u2019d been called up for the England squad; giving our left back John Trollope a torrid time.\nShortly before half time Paine waltzed down the right, John Trollope launched himself into a totally mis-timed sliding tackle and went hurtling off the pitch into the barriers leaving Paine to run on to beat Mike Turner with ease for the equaliser. It was hard to take and got harder in the second half when Paine set up an easy goal for some young up and coming striker called Martin Chivers, whoever he was. It was our first home defeat of the season, all the more unthinkable in that we\u2019d given the points to Southampton of all people. Just over two weeks later Terry Paine scored a hat-trick at Wembley in England\u2019s 8-3 rout of Northern Ireland.\nThe following Saturday we faced a tough trip to 6th placed Middlesbrough, where few of us expected to get anything. However we atoned somewhat for the Southampton disappointment with Ernie Hunt\u2019s late goal giving us a 1-1 draw and a very well earned point. Next up was a home game against another half-decent side from the North East in the form of Newcastle United, who were under-performing and down in 17th place. Playing for the opposition that day was Willie Penman who was to become a great favourite when he joined Town in 1966 and went on to be a part of the 1969 League Cup winning team. He didn\u2019t score that day however, and neither did anyone else in a fairly drab 0-0 draw.\nThe following Tuesday promised some great entertainment with the visit of West Ham United in a League Cup Third Round tie. West Ham had a strong side out with some experienced professionals like John Bond and Peter Brabrook together with young talent in the form of Ronnie Boyce, Martin Peters and, of course, Geoff Hurst. Like many games we\u2019ve had with the Hammers it was a thriller. We didn\u2019t know what hit us as Ronnie Boyce and Peter Brabrook put the opposition two up within the first 15 minutes but goals from Don Rogers and Jack Smith put us on equal terms by half time.\nThe Hammers led again through a Geoff Hurst goal but seven minutes from time Ken McPherson headed home from a corner to give us a relay at Upton Park the following Monday. After a thrilling six-goal cup tie and a decent result against a First Division side, we went home pretty happy. The replay put us in our place however with West Ham, bolstered by the presence of Bobby Moore, cruising to an easy 4-1 win with goals from John Byrne, Peter Brabrook, Geoff Hurst and Tony Scott, with Don getting our consolation goal.\nThe following Saturday saw us travel to Huddersfield Town for an unremarkable 2-0 defeat and a week later we shared a rather dire 0-0 home draw with Derby County. It had been a bad month with no win recorded in five league games and two cup games. What was particularly worrying was that the goals had suddenly dried up; we\u2019d only scored two goals in the five league games during the month and failed to score in the last three.\nProbably reflecting this, the attendance for the Derby game was less than 16,000, the lowest of the season to date. We were however still 4th in Division Two, behind Leeds United, Sunderland and Preston North End, illustrious company to say the least, and that was way beyond our wildest expectations at the start of the season. December beckoned; surely we\u2019d get back to winning ways\u2026\ntagged with 1963/64, Bert Head, Blog, Derby County, Don Rogers, Ernie Hunt, Football, Huddersfield Town, Jack Smith, Middlesbrough, Roger Smart, Southampton, Swindon Town, Terry Paine, West Ham United, Writer - Mike Minihane",

        "raw_content": "Meet the Aussie coaching behind enemy lines\nAustralian-born coach Mirko Jelicic has made a career coaching in Uzbekistan Source: twitter\nFew Australians know more about football in Uzbekistan than Mirko Jelicic.\nHailing from Western Australia, Jelicic has spent the best part of more than a decade in various football roles in the Central Asian country.\nFor the past four years Jelicic has managed Lokomotiv Tashkent, one of the elite clubs in the Uzbekistan Super League, the top division in the former Soviet Republic.\nDuring that time he has had tremendous success by leading Lokomotiv to three league titles, including back-to-back championships in the past two seasons, as well as to two Uzbek Cups and into the quarter-finals of the Asian Champions League in 2016.\nBefore that, Jellic coached Uzbekistan\u2019s Under-23s and also served as an assistant to the national team for two years.\nCurrently in Dubai with his team on a pre-season camp preparing for the new domestic season, the 53-year-old opened up to The World Game before the Socceroos meet Uzbekistan in the round of 16 in the Asian Cup.\nJelicic, who was worked under the likes of Sven-Goran Eriksson, Valery Nepomnyashchy and Bora Milutinovich during his long career, explained how he first ended up in the faraway Asian nation in 2005.\n\u201cIn the last 20 years my time in professional football has been out of the country,\u201d he said.\n\u201cMy initial stint was with Perth Glory in the days that Bernd Stange was coaching there in the NSL. From there I\u2019ve expanded out to several countries in Asia, such as Malaysia, Singapore, China and Thailand.\n\u201cI initially came out to Uzbekistan in 2005 to help with the national team with their World Cup qualifying preparations. I just ended up staying. My wife is from there so I\u2019ve been in and out of the country in various set-ups.\n\u201cIn terms of football, Uzbekistan is an emerging country. They gained their independence in 1991 from the old USSR and they\u2019ve been slowing going their own path in developing football.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of positives about football there, but quite a lot of negatives still to be ironed out. They\u2019re stuck in a lot of old mentalities \u2013 whether that changes quickly or not, it\u2019s hard to say.\n\u201cBut definitely a very competitive country, particularly on the Asian stage. And it\u2019s been tough working there, it\u2019s been enjoyable on many fronts but at the end of the day their attitudes about the game, their mentality is a lot different to ours.\n\u201cSo there\u2019s a lot of things you have to put up with, a lot of things you have to let go and understand you cant change.\u201d\nThe Socceroos\u2019 Asian Cup defence will go on the line when they meet the White Wolves in Al Ain. Jelicic has watched from close range the changes Uzbek coach Hector Cuper has tried to make since taking over late last year.\n\u201cI think Uzbekistan has a high respect for Australia and that may be based on what Australia has done in the past in terms of their World Cup record and obviously based on being champions of Asia at the moment,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThey\u2019re definitely aware of a lot of the bigger profile names that play the game around the world. They\u2019re in the same boat at the moment I think, they both had a change of coach in the last two or three months.\n\u201cFrom an Uzbekistan point of view, its taken them a while to I guess get a feel for what he\u2019s [Cuper] trying to do. I wouldn\u2019t say that was successful when he first came in.\n\u201cHe did try to sort of guess retain their football a little bit, and try get more discipline in their game. That doesn\u2019t always suit the Uzbeks, they\u2019re a little more free with their football and pretty muck like to play an open, attacking game \u2013 that\u2019s their natural attributes.\n\u201cBut now they\u2019ve sort of found each others voice a little and the last couple of games have reflected that. In terms of how they will go with Australia, I think it will be very competitive game.\n\u201cI would still favour Australia, just in terms of the pedigree of their players. It depends a lot on how each of the teams approach the game, whether they go all-out for a win or whether they\u2019re prepared to sit and absorb the game, look at a counter-attack situation.\n\u201cI think the first half will be a little of a feeling each other out and then you\u2019ll find the game open up a lot in the second half.\u201d\nJelicic, who previously coached Cockburn City in the NPL Western Australia, and had stints with Perth Glory and the Auckland Kingz in the NSL, has been impressed with the revamped Socceroos at this Asian Cup under Graham Arnold.\n\u201cThe Socceroos\u2019 approach now is a bit different to when Ange was in charge,\u201d he said.\n\u201cNot so much gung-ho as before. Whether that suits the Australians or not is difficult to say. But I think they\u2019ve done very well, they look very organized, they\u2019ve got threats across the park going forward and quite stable at the back.\n\u201cI think they\u2019re jelling. I think each game they\u2019ve picked up and they look a bit easier in what they\u2019re trying to do. Personally I think that will continue and be hard to beat as they\u2019ve got players all over the park who can hold their own.\n\u201cUzbekistan are quite similar, there are players there that are playing overseas at a good level. It really comes down to how each teams approach the game.\u201d\nJelicic knows the mentality of the White Wolves intimately and believes the Uzbeks would have preferred to have avoided playing Australia in the round of 16.\n\u201cI think Uzbekistan would have felt far more comfortable having a Middle Eastern opponent, or from a country from this side of the world,\u201d he admitted.\n\u201cI think they\u2019re a little bit fearful of Australia, mainly because of the physical nature that they can bring to the game. They would have preferred a Saudi Arabia or an Oman.\n\u201cThey do like an open game where there\u2019s a lot more space to be used. Teams that are more structured and defensively tight, I think they\u2019ll have a problem breaking them down.\u201d\nThe current Uzbekistan national team contains six players on the books at Jelicic\u2019s club Lokomotiv Tashkent. Another two, midfielder Ikromjon Alibaev and forward Sardor Rashidov, were recently part of his squad before signing for foreign outfits.\n\u201cPretty much the whole backline apart from the right back is from Lokomotiv,\u201d Jelicic explained.\n\u201cIn that sense there\u2019s probably a fair bit of stability and they\u2019re very comfortable with each other. Cuper\u2019s probably don\u2019t that on purpose as he hasn\u2019t had a long time to work on things.\n\u201cAlibaev is midfielder, he\u2019s been used as a winger. He\u2019s just been sold to FC Seoul in Korea. He\u2019s a good player, very aggressive, does a lot of work and has a lot of ability on the ball. He\u2019s the sort of player who can turn games.\n\u201cMarat Bikmaev has some assets. He\u2019s a deadly finisher, on set pieces or in open play. He\u2019s always a threat.\n\u201cThere\u2019s also Rashidov who\u2019s been recently sold to Nacional de Madeira in Portugal. He\u2019s also a winger. He\u2019s a sub-version of Cristiano Ronaldo. Very fast, believes in himself and usually used off the bench. He can produce the goods when required to.\u201d\nLittle known in his homeland, Jelicic has carved out a very successful coaching career in Uzbekistan and blazed a trail for Australian coaches across Asia. The fact that he has managed to continue in employment and win trophies in the Uzbekistan Super League, where politics and unpredictable owners rule, is no mean feat.\n\u201cThe league itself is like most leagues, dominated by three or four clubs,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThe clubs are generally run by businessmen who are not football people. They tend to like to get involved in decision-making, so you\u2019re pretty much working on eggshells most of the time.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t take much time to turn the tide here whether you\u2019re in favour or not. To stick around here for a long time is not the easiest of things. There\u2019s not much room for complacency for failure.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "November 1, 2018 November 2, 2018 / threeboysandahope\nDon\u2019t cry, I tell myself. You can\u2019t cry now, they\u2019ll think you\u2019re crazy. They\u2019ll want to know why. Pull it together! I turn towards the lake and shade my eyes to hide the rebellious tears that won\u2019t be talked out of existence. That old enemy Anxiety, ever alert and ready, slinks into the inner monologue. Look at them, see how easy it is for them. Why can\u2019t you just be \u2018normal?\u2019 Why can\u2019t you just figure it out? You\u2019re almost 34 for godsake, you\u2019re a grown ass woman! If you haven\u2019t figured it out by now you are never going to. This is your life. Is this really how you want to keep living? My heart rate picks up, my stomach starts to turn. Someone makes the same suggestion I tentatively made moments ago that no one responded to, but now everyone thinks this is a great new idea. It\u2019s like they don\u2019t even see you, and why should they? Anxiety whispers. You are invisible. Nobody would miss you if you were gone, why do you think you have the right to be here? It would be better if you weren\u2019t here. It\u2019s vicious, and it chooses it\u2019s mark well. I swallow around the lump in my throat and take a deep breath. This isn\u2019t the first, or even the hundredth, time Anxiety and I have gone round and round. I know what\u2019s coming next but I\u2019m still unprepared for it. The wave of Depression that I\u2019ve been struggling to keep at bay rises and crashes over me and I feel detached, cold and numb again.\nHello friend. It\u2019s me again. It\u2019s been awhile. We\u2019ve talked about my ADHD in the past, and I\u2019ve shared the quirks I live with, but I\u2019ve never mentioned some of the harder aspects that can be part of the ADHD package. These things are called comorbidities (that\u2019s such a pretty sounding word idnnit?) and they show up for different people different ways. For me they are Anxiety and Depression. I\u2019ve been quiet on both because quite frankly they are hard for me to talk about. They are things that have affected me my whole life in ways that are painful and even embarrassing at times. But in order to shed light on them, I am stepping out of my comfort zone farther than I ever have before and sharing about my own journey with each of them. I will write about Anxiety in the near future, but I wanted to start with the one that has been weighing on my heart the most lately. So, here we go\u2026\nI know. That\u2019s a bummer of a subject to be my first post in a long time\u2026.but it\u2019s one that I can\u2019t keep myself from writing about any longer. Lord knows I\u2019ve tried avoiding it, to the point of not writing at all for months, and even as I type I feel sick to my stomach. The fear of hurting people I love, backlash from strangers or of people looking at me differently have all kept me from saying anything publicly. Once you put this out there, you can never take it back. But sometimes it\u2019s not about preserving the image we want to keep, but inviting others in so that they don\u2019t feel as alone. Depression is isolating, that is how it works. It separates you from everyone and everything you love, and it makes you feel as though you are the only one in the world who is hurting. It\u2019s a fantastic liar.\nWe lost two notable public figures this year: Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain. Each time the news broke I was quietly shaken with the reminder that this is a battle that could be lost. On a more personal level, my family lost my cousin Tommy this past summer, and while I would love to punch him for choosing to leave us, I also understood. I obviously wish he hadn\u2019t left us, but I understood that feeling of hopelessness that caused him to feel like there was only one choice. But even in my understanding it was painful, because I felt that same dark fear lurking in the back of my mind.\nI have been to counseling over the years, and had many great people who I could have confided to about my struggle, but I never did. For me it always seemed like after the depression faded for awhile I was able to laugh it off and convince myself it wouldn\u2019t happen again, that it wasn\u2019t a big deal. Only recently, after struggling the entire summer to claw my way out of the gray, did I finally admit to my husband how bad it was. I had admitted before that in the distant past I had dealt with depression and even thought about choosing to give up, but I had been too afraid to admit, for his sake and mine, that it wasn\u2019t in the \u201cpast\u201d but rather a very present, hard and sometimes terrifying reality of my day to day life. To say he was shocked would be an understatement.\nWhen people lose a loved one, and I hear them say \u201cI had no idea they were struggling! Why didn\u2019t they just tell me?\u201d I wish I could answer for them. Because I know what it feels like to keep it to yourself, how it feels when you don\u2019t want to burden anyone else with the amount of pain you are carrying. And because, at least for me, a lot of the time, it feels like you have no \u201cvalid\u201d reason to feel that way. I am married to a wonderful man who loves me, I have four beautiful children, a nice house, a loving family, and friends who I have found my place with. How do you explain to someone whats \u2018wrong\u2019 when you have absolutely nothing to point to? My depression doesn\u2019t come and go based on my current life situation. That in itself can be incredibly frustrating.\nRecently I watched the pilot episode of the show A Million Little Things, and the character Roman, who I relate with the most, said something that I have felt but could never put into words. He was finally admitting to his friends that he was struggling with depression:\n\u201cI know that sounds crazy. Because I have an incredible life, and I am married to the most amazing woman, but sometimes, I feel so hopeless. It\u2019s like I can\u2019t breathe, only I\u2019m breathing. And I just think, you know, maybe if I just stopped it wouldn\u2019t hurt so much.\u201d\nWhy don\u2019t people call the hotline you ask? Why can\u2019t they simply reach out to a loved one? Because as I said, depression is a wonderful liar, and excellent at making you feel isolated. It tells you that you are crazy, that no one will understand, or worse, you will be a burden to them. But the scariest thing it tells you, is that everything would be better if you just weren\u2019t here. My husband would be better off with a wife who wasn\u2019t such an emotional drain. My kids would be better of without a mom who hides in her room because she doesn\u2019t have the emotional energy to engage with them sometimes. My family would be better of without me and my \u201cdrama.\u201d My friends would be better off without me being a needy burden who needs constant affirmation. But ultimately that it would be better for me to just stop having to fight this damn hard to make it through a normal day.\nIn a more recent episode of that same show, an affair by their buddy came to light, and an angry friend asked Roman, \u201chow can you just keep going like nothing is wrong?\u201d And Roman\u2019s response was something to the effect of: \u201cBecause it\u2019s what I do every day.\u201d\nThat moment I recounted at the start of this post was one that really happened recently. On a girls trip, in a beautiful location, surrounded by friends that arguably know me better than most people. It took me most of the day to recover from that moment of complete mental chaos by the lake, but when we went mini golfing I was laughing like everyone else and having fun. Later that evening, when when we had a minute alone, I finally broke down to the friend who knew my struggle, and five minutes later I was in the hot tub chatting like my heart hadn\u2019t just broken right there in the kitchen of our vacation rental.\nDepression isn\u2019t always situational. It doesn\u2019t come at regular intervals or set times. You can\u2019t prepare for it. It doesn\u2019t give a damn if you\u2019re black, white, rich, poor, educated or uneducated. I am a happy person most of the time, most people will tell you I\u2019m funny, I love my family and friends. Yet in the midst of the darkest moment, forcing myself to logically reason through my worth and telling myself that nobody would feel better if I were to leave of my own volition has been the only thing that made me feel sane. But there is the absolute fear that one day logic won\u2019t win.\nAs a Christian there is also guilt that comes with struggling with depression. Like I must not love Jesus enough, or trust enough, or believe enough because otherwise I wouldn\u2019t be having this \u201cproblem.\u201d But after the summer from hell emotionally, I think I\u2019ve finally come to realize that God is not sitting outside of the gray hopelessness impatiently waiting for me to snap out of it, but rather sitting right next to me, loving me, holding me, much as a parent tends a hurt child. I don\u2019t have a well thought out, research backed philosophy, but I do know that He weeps with those who weep, and He mourns with those who mourn. The bible doesn\u2019t say anything about the weepers and the mourners having a \u201cvalid\u201d reason. He doesn\u2019t abandon us in our sorrow regardless of how we got there. Depression is not a lack of faith, but rather the inability to see the hope for the moment/day/week/month. That\u2019s another thing, you\u2019re never sure how long it\u2019s going to take over.\nI want to be very clear that this post is not a cry for help, or me looking for validation. We are beyond that. It is me giving the part of me that hurts the most, to the people who maybe need to know they aren\u2019t the only ones who hurt. Or maybe for the person who has lost a loved one to this battle, and is asking themselves how they didn\u2019t see it or didn\u2019t know, or just wants to understand how the heck they got here. Depression is not a choice, nobody wants to feel this way. I know what it is to feel effortlessly happy at times, but I also know how it feels to stand next to my husband and fight to feel joy or just something as we watch our children happily run and play on the beach.\nIf you are the person who is struggling right now, or knows that all too familiar feeling of the spiral, I just really want to encourage you to fight your self preservation instincts, be brave and tell that person who you know loves you the most and who you can trust. Trust them to love you in this, because having someone who knows the ugly depths, and who you don\u2019t have to hide it from or pretend everything is ok with is incredibly relieving. I know its hard, but fight that long honed instinct to pretend even with your safe people. Even if it doesn\u2019t change you, it gives you someone to lean on who is more than willing to hold on to you and you are giving them the gift of you. Because YOU my friend are indeed a gift, every flawed, cracked and broken piece of you. As my friend has repeated to me when I needed to hear it, \u201cyou have value here.\u201d The world needs YOU, and your thoughts, and talents and your heart. Don\u2019t fight this battle alone dear one. YOU are worth fighting for, I promise.\nSomeone who is fighting too.\nADHD, depression, Uncategorized\nADHD, Adult ADHD, community, depression, faith, Living With ADHD, Struggling with ADHD, ThreeBoysandaHope\n\u2190 Five Life Lessons I Learned on a Camping Trip: Lesson #5 We Never Stop Learning\n2 thoughts on \u201cD is for\u2026\u201d\nMy Sunshine, from day one you have been a blessing to me I will cry with you any day.

        "raw_content": "Red Light Camera Tickets Generate Millions\nRed light camera tickets are a pain for all drivers (but we can help if you get a ticket), however, they are boon to not only the government entities that collect the fines but to the private companies that operate the cameras as well. The amount of money that is generated by red light camera tickets is eye popping as the Houston Chronicle reports that the city of Houston has received more than $50 million in civil fines since the cameras began operation in 2006. While at first this may appear to be a good thing as the city now has more money to provide services, it is money that is coming out of the pocket of everyday people. MSNBC reports that the average fine in Los Angeles - where the city's police commission recently voted to end its red light camera ticket program - is $446. In addition, the agreements that these cities have with the companies that run the cameras, like American Traffic Solutions Inc., are worth millions of dollars. In fact, the city of Houston had a referendum where its citizens voted to end its red light camera program this past November. However, the city's contract with American Traffic Solutions required Houston to either turn the cameras back on (and ignore the will of the people) or pay $20 million in damages to the private company. \"The City just went through a very painful budget process in which nearly 750 employees were laid off and park, library and health services were cut back,\" Houston Mayor Annise Parker said, reports KTRK, an ABC affiliate. \"We simply don't have the millions they claim we would owe for violating the court decision and our contractual obligation to [American Traffic Solutions]. Therefore, I have decided the fiscally-prudent path to take is to turn the cameras back on while also seeking a second chance for the voters in the courts.\" American Traffic Solutions isn't the only private company raking in tens of thousands of dollars from city's across the U.S. The Ventura County Star reports that Redflex Traffic Systems collects $30,500 each month from the city of Oxnard. According to the Dayton Daily News, the city of Dayton, Ohio, has had difficulty trying to get its drivers to pay fines issued by red light cameras. Motorists reportedly owe $3.89 million in unpaid tickets over the past eight years.\nPosted in Business, Government, Red Light",

        "raw_content": "Do you follow CW?\nThroughout the earlier parts of my career I \u2018toed\u2019 the corporate line. I did what I was told blindly, with no thought to originality or creativity. And I believed that was the way to do things. At the time, 30 years ago, I was with Wells Fargo Guard Services (now defunct having been a part of several mergers and acquisitions).\nAs Major Frank Burns, Larry Linville of M*A*S*H fame, stated during an episode this line \u2018If we don\u2019t follow our leaders blindly and act the same, we can\u2019t be independent and free\u2019. It is unfortunate but I thought that way. And probably the reason was that the company I worked for encouraged it, as do far too many security \u2018guard\u2019 companies do today.\nI learned as I continued with them that this wasn\u2019t the way to get things done. Nor was it the way to improve things and the conditions that security was under. So I started to change and have kept changing to this day, much too many peoples chagrin and mine at times.\nI read a story about a college kid who started his working career at Fenway Park in Boston selling Crunch-n-Munch. He wasn\u2019t making much money (about $15 per night because he was paid on commission). So his 2nd night on the job he changed his strategy and started singing, dancing, and acting like a good stand-up comedian, didn\u2019t matter that he couldn\u2019t sing or dance a bit. His income increase to well over $400 per night by the end of the baseball season. This was definitely against CW at the time for food hawkers in the 70\u2019s & 80\u2019s. But it worked and he was entertaining obviously.\nSometimes this has served me well during my career. Other times it hasn\u2019t and I\u2019ve gotten into trouble and even fired for these thoughts and \u2018counter-productive\u2019 solutions for clients. They were counter-productive only to the company I worked for, not the people I managed or the clients I worked for. The clients and officers were always happy with what I did, mostly, it was the company I was working for that didn\u2019t like what I did.\nOn the social networking site Linked-In I came across an article that really seemed to speak to me. It was posted in a discussion group by a colleague of mine, Felix Nader. Here is an excerpt of the discussion;\nThis sentiment simply tells me that not following CW is the right path. I never have followed it and I don\u2019t want to start now. I believe that I can do well enough without following everyone else and falling into line with whatever is out there that is new, exciting, or shiney.\nThat brings me to 2 books that I simply love. The first is by Robert Krenzel entitled \u2018If it ain\u2019t Broke, Break it!\u2019 The other one is entitled \u2018Re-work\u2019 by Jason Fried.\nBoth of these books take CW and turn it on its proverbial head. And I\u2019m sure that most of my former bosses would turn in their graves or wiggle like they have scorpions in their pants over the actions suggested by these books! But as I said before, CW is not all that great.\nI firmly believe that CW can, at times, be moldy, old, smelly, & totally useless in a world where things change too fast to keep up at times. So thumb your noses at CW and try something new, bold, & exciting. If it fails, lesson learned.\nWant your security problems to be handled in an unconventional way that helps the company and the bottom line?

        "raw_content": "My all-time favorite book on leadership is Leadership is an Art by Max DePree. Books can reinforce principles we already embrace, and they can stretch our thinking in new directions. To some degree, what we learn in books shapes our lives and impacts the choices we make. In this segment of my blog, I will share my thoughts about books I have read.\nJohn Tschohl\u2019s Empowerment, A Way of Life is the most significant work on genuine employee empowerment that I have ever read. John explains true empowerment in clear terms, with pragmatic advice on how to create the corporate culture so genuine employee empowerment thrives, with examples that all can understand. John not only explains what employee empowerment is, but he also outlines the boundaries of empowerment. This is a must read for any leader of a company, large or small, who wants to improve customer service and enhance employee morale at the same time. Have you read this book? Share your thoughts in a comment.\nMay 7, 2010 I just finished reading Creating Competitive Advantage by Jaynie L. Smith. What a great book to cause business leaders to think back to basics. It\u2019s so simple: to be successful you need to be able to convince your market to do business with you instead of with your competitors. The key is to know what your competitive advantage is and then making sure your customers know what it is and build your strategy around it. Northeast Delta Dental\u2019s competitive edge has been called the \u201cDelta Difference\u201d \u2013 a commitment to excellence and extraordinary customer service. Because we know that retaining our existing customers is less expensive than marketing to new customers, we work to build our success on their trust. Our customers value our stellar service and are willing to pay more for this most distinguishing attribute of our company. To remain competitive, one must constantly analyze one\u2019s position to determine when new measures of success may emerge, always striving to know what it is that your customers want.\nApril 26, 2010 I just finished reading Wired to Care by Dev Patnaik and strongly encourage you to pick up a copy. The definition of empathy is to be able to project yourself into another\u2019s position to better understand and share in their emotions, thoughts or feelings. Work-life balance is critical to healthy human beings and I\u2019ve always believed in the golden rule. The challenge is to practice this when life is throwing curve balls. Success can take on a life of its own but the secret is to remain grounded in your core beliefs. If we could all live a little softer and a little gentler the world would be a better place. You have a new opportunity every day to make that difference; grab hold and don\u2019t let go.\nFebruary 17, 2010 Daniel Pink\u2019s Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us is a great read for business leaders or any leader responsible for motivating and energizing people to be the best they can be. No longer is the carrot or the stick the appropriate means, rather, think back to Maslow\u2019s self-actualization, the pinnacle place in the hierarchy of needs, the place where you want to be as a growing human being. Autonomy, mastery and purpose \u2014 Mr. Pink outlines several approaches to put these into action, so that people with whom you work or play will be at their best. Please let me know what you think. Thank you.\nJanuary 4, 2010 When I\u2019ve had a few moments in between negotiation sessions with Fort Dearborn Life (re: Northeast Delta Dental\u2019s acquisition of Combined Services LLC, a general agency), I\u2019ve been poking through three books on running: 1) How to Train for and Run Your Best Marathon (Gordon Bakoulis Bloch); 2) Once a Runner (John Parker) and 3) Born to Run (Christopher McDougall). The How to Train book is a primer with some good tips while the other two books are more inspirational. All three books are worth the read. Even non runners very much enjoy the Born to Run book. Please let me know what you think if you have an opportunity to read one or more of these books. Thank you. Tom\nKen Auletta\u2019s Googled, The End of the World as We Know It, is over 335 pages, but worth the read, because the author succeeds in two respects \u2014 1) he not only profiles the principles of a successful and transforming company (Google), with inside insights on culture and leadership but 2) Auletta also gets into Google\u2019s dramatic impact on the media in general, and where media is heading.\nThe other book I was reading simultaneously to Googled is Malcolm Gladwell\u2019s What the Dog Saw, a collection of Gladwell\u2019s most interesting pieces from The New Yorker. You will read about inventors, entrepreneurs, ultimate sales people; discussions about plagiarism, profiling, and the talent myth. A really cool collection of essays, on a variety of topics. You can skip around if you wish; great for a Sunday afternoon.\nIf you\u2019ve read one or both of these books, what do you think?\nNovember 8, 2009 Over this weekend I read Rosabeth Moss Kanter\u2019s new book, Super Corp \u2014 How Vanguard Companies Create Innovation, Profits, Growth and Social Good. The basic theme of the book is that corporations can serve society as well as the corporate bottom line. I am personally, and the Northeast Delta Dental enterprise, are big believers in this \u201cdoing well, by doing good\u201d philosophy. Ms. Kanter\u2019s research corroborates that businesses that have customer focus, stay ahead of the curve in terms of market changes, and are financially sound, are also the businesses that are socially responsible, good corporate citizens. As I have described in prior blogs, in all the best company panels that I\u2019ve participated, this theme is universal for these best companies, regardless of industry.\nOctober 5, 2009 Based on a recommendation from my Delta Dental Plan of Vermont Board Chair, Mr. David Anderson, I recently read a very lengthy book on the epic life of Cornelius Vanderbilt, called \u201cThe First Tycoon\u201d by T. J. Stiles. This biography is well documented by Stiles, and there are some great historical pictures included in the book. Stiles believes that Vanderbilt is one of the major players responsible for shaping the development of the U.S. Economy. It\u2019s relevance for today: even though Vanderbilt lived centuries ago, it is clear that the issues which caused our recent collapse of the financial markets, and ethical issues in business, are not new; and we keep repeating many of the same mistakes and cycles. On the other hand, Vanderbilt\u2019s story makes it clear that if one is brilliant and works hard, one can be very successful even without a formal education. I\u2019ve also believed that working hard and communication skills are the keys to a successful career in business.\nYou know, I keep re-reading W. Edwards Deming\u2019s \u201cThe New Economics\u201d and I keep learning more from it\u2013about leadership, process improvement, performance excellence, and how to approach business problems.\nLast week I attended a seminar given by Toyota Way author and guru David Meier, and it\u2019s clear that much of Toyota\u2019s success is due to a tenaciously persistent implementation of Deming\u2019s fundamental concepts. I learn much from the observations in the many leadership and business books I read, but there\u2019s something that calls me back to the original sources. Deming was a bright guy.\nmitch couret says:\nOne more for you to look at:Linchpin by Seth Godin.It talks about the quality of being indispensible. Invent,lead make things happen and bring order out of chaos often resolving problems withiut a rule book. Love their work and pour their best self into it and turn the day into an art form.\nHi Dr. Couret,\nAnother great book to help remind us of the importance of a quality focus, both from a corporate standpoint, but also personal integrity. Thanks for the recommendation. Tom R.\nUn Amigo says:\nHello Mr Raffio.\nI lived for a long time in Europe, there I had the opportunity to work in a management company for 3 years as Director of Quality and Environment, attended several seminars and leadership courses, all focused on quality, but in the last two years I began to take courses on a new approach where quality is not spoken, but it speaks of excellence, EFQM excellence model.\nHere I leave you with affection a little introduction first of the nine concepts that talks about leadership:\nConsistency Leadership Excellence is providing leadership with vision capability to serve as inspiration to others and, moreover, is consistent across the organization.\nas he puts into practice the concept Excellent organizations have leaders who set and communicate a clear direction for their organization and, in doing so, unite and motivate other leaders for their behavior serve as a source of inspiration to his colleagues . The women leaders establish values, ethical principles and develop a culture and system of governance of the organization that offers interest groups a unique identity and appeal.\nThis is my contribution to this interesting blog \u2026\nI await your response and we continue in touch \u2026\n\u201cThe man never knows what he is capable until he tries\u201d\nGreetings and blessings.\nThank you for your insightful comments and observations. You are a wise observer of Servant Leadeship which I aspire to follow; I would enjoy hearing about the other concepts you reference. Please do write again. Thank you friend. Tom R.\nTom, I wanted to let you know that I was inspired by our NEDD Radio interview a couple of years ago and wrote an article \u201cHo ho ho, Instead of Ho hum\u201d on dealing with the holidays. http://energizeperformance.com/2015/12/17/ho-ho-ho-instead-of-ho-hum/\nThanks Bob, and have a Happy New Year!

CPC(M-L) specifically condemns the unprincipled stand of the government of Canada which, in the name of high ideals of democracy, is spreading disinformation about what is going on in Venezuela and meddling to destabilize and overthrow the government.\nThe role Canada is playing to interfere in the internal affairs of Venezuela promotes foreign intervention and joins the litany of threats from the United States and several European countries, including Spain and Italy.\nCanada\u2019s Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland issued two statements, one on July 16 and another on July 26. All evidence to the contrary, she praises as highly successful the July 16 \u201cnational unofficial vote on the government\u2019s plan to rewrite the constitution and the political future of their country\u201d \u2014 a so-called plebiscite against the Constituent Assembly held by the opposition. This she claims is constitutional, but the election of a Constituent Assembly is not.\nIn the statement issued on July 26, Freeland claims that \u201cthe process to create the Constituent Assembly is contrary to Venezuela\u2019s constitution and seeks to usurp the democratic rights of its citizens.\u201d This is simply not true.\n\u201cThe plan for the Constituent Assembly is neither in keeping with democratic principles nor representative of the Venezuelan people,\u201d Freeland says. \u201cWe call on the Venezuelan government to cancel the national Constituent Assembly and to take concrete actions, with the opposition, to restore democratic order,\u201d she says. This position is a reiteration of what the U.S. administration is saying. Besides threats issued by the CIA (see below), on July 17, U.S. President Donald Trump once again threatened \u201cstrong and swift economic actions\u201d if the elections for the Constituent Assembly go ahead.\nToronto picket in support of the Venezuelan people, July 25, 2017.\nCanada is also instrumental in efforts within the Organization of American States (OAS) to condemn Venezuela and authorize external intervention, which have repeatedly failed. Meanwhile, the majority of governments of Latin America and the Caribbean reject the moves of the OAS and support Venezuela\u2019s right to self-determination. The Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) issued a statement rejecting Donald Trump\u2019s July 17 interventionist threats. The statement condemns the threats of more sanctions as coercive and unilateral which violate international law and the sovereignty and independence of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.\nAccording to the ALBA members, the announcement of imposing economic sanctions against the Venezuelan people constitutes an unacceptable interventionist implementation of U.S. laws, which in no way contributes to the solution of the situation in the South American country and also impedes its development.\nThe ALBA countries also reject the interference of those countries that not only ignore the Venezuelan legal system and the constitutional and legitimate government of the president, Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, but also put at risk the status of Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace reached at the Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) in 2014. This weekend, leading up to the election of the Constituent Assembly, actions are being held in cities across the country to express the support of Canadians for the Venezuelan people and government. This includes a twitter campaign on Friday, July 28, under the hashtags #VenezuelaCorazonDeAmerica and #VamosConLaConstituyente.\nAll Out to Support the Venezuelan People, Their President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro and the Election of the Constituent Assembly!\nSource: TML Daily, July 28, 2017",

They scored two goals in the period to take a 2-0 lead into the first intermission.\nAs much as the Saints had dominated the first the Thunder responded with their own dominant performance in the second. Trine outshot the opposition 25-14 in the period and came away with a goal of their own to pull within one of St. Scholastica.\nSophomore Sula Argyris (Woodhaven, Mich.) started the scoring play by coming up with a loose puck in the neutral zone. She then passed it ahead to freshman Theresa DiMaggio (Shelby Township, Mich.) who carried it into the offensive zone. DiMaggio would then fire a shot from the top of the right faceoff circle which was turned aside by the Saints' goaltender. The rebound was left free however and freshman Ava Russano (Grosse Pointe, Mich.) was there to collect it and capitalize with her third goal of the season.\nThe Thunder almost tied the game a few minutes later on a backdoor attempt that somehow did not cross the goal line, but instead, they entered the second intermission trailing 2-1.\nTrine kept up the pressure in the third but was unable to capitalize and the Saints snagged a goal in both the 15th and 16th minutes of the period to pull away for the 4-1 victory.\nThe Thunder fall to 6-8-1 overall and 4-5-1 in Northern Collegiate Hockey Association (NCHA) play following the loss. They will look to bounce back when they travel to face Aurora University for a pair of NCHA games. The first comes on Friday, Jan. 25 and is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. CST.",

        "raw_content": "Horizon Zero Dawn: How to Get Metal Shards Fast\nHome \u00bb Guides \u00bb Horizon Zero Dawn: How to Get Metal Shards Fast\nHow to Get Metal Shards Fast \u2013 Horizon Zero Dawn\nMetal Shards are incredibly important in Horizon Zero Dawn. This is because they not only act as your purchasing currency in the game, but are also a key crafting material. If you want to create Traps, or ammo for most, if not all of your weapons, you\u2019ll need Metal Shards. Therefore, it\u2019s understandable you\u2019ll want to get your hands on these fast. Well, luckily there are a few methods to doing exactly that.\nTo get Metal Shards fast, the first thing you want to do is head to a merchant. Once here, talk with them and head to the Sell tab. Make your way to Resources first. Now, anything that has no other use than being sold to a merchant can go. This is an easy way to getting Metal Shards fast in Horizon Zero Dawn. What\u2019s more, because you\u2019re only selling the items that have no other use, you won\u2019t wish you hadn\u2019t sold it later on in the game. Next, head to the Mods tab and clear out any of the low-level and unimpressive mods you\u2019ve been carrying around. Once they\u2019re out of the way, most of our work with the merchant is done. However, there\u2019s one thing we need to buy before we go.\nDon\u2019t panic, you\u2019re not really buying something, it\u2019s just under the Buy tab. Make your way down to the Treasure Boxes tab and you should find that a merchant has a free box of some sort for you if you haven\u2019t picked it up already. These are often filled with crafting resources, so there\u2019s a good chance that you\u2019ll get a top up on your Metal Shards.\nNext, as you\u2019re wandering around the world, make sure you\u2019re taking down any machine that you see. Not only are these a good source of EXP, but they\u2019ll also often have Metal Shards you can loot from them. It\u2019s never a huge amount, but every little helps and it soon adds up.\nWhile you\u2019re out exploring and completing quests, don\u2019t forget to keep an eye out for supply caches too. These are small boxes that are filled with a bunch of handy items. While you\u2019re not guaranteed to get Metal Shards from one, they\u2019re not the rarest item in the game.\nFinally, make sure to get the Scavenger skill when you\u2019ve got the skill points to do so. While it won\u2019t open another revenue stream for Aloy, it does bolster an existing one. The Scavenger skill increases the number of items you\u2019ll find on a machine. This means you\u2019ll be getting more Metal Shards for the same amount of work. Not a bad deal at all.\nThat\u2019s all you need to know to get Metal Shards fast in Horizon Zero Dawn. For more tips, tricks, and guides for the game, be sure to check out our ever-expanding wiki guide.\nRelated Topics:easily, fast, get, Horizon: Zero Dawn, How to, metal shards, more, quickly",

Labour currently has 229 seats.\nBut Mr. McCluskey did not blame the Labour leader for this anticipated outcome. Instead, he piled responsibility on the press for pinning a particular image of Mr. Corbyn.\n'Huge task in reviving Mr. Corbyn's image'\nHe said there is a huge task facing the party in reviving the Labour leader's image.\nThe Unite general secretary said Mr. Corbyn is a decent and honest man who is on people's side.\nHe added that his union is helping Labour to work hard at pumping out their message of an equal and fairer Britain.\nBut Mr. McCluskey believes that because of the large crowds that turned up to Labour's manifesto launch yesterday, the polls may well be wrong and there is all to play for.\nDespite this, the Unite general secretary's comments will come as a devastating blow to Mr. Corbyn's manifesto launch.\nThe manifesto outlines the Labour leader's 'radical and responsible' plans that aimed to reverse national priorities.\nHe ruled out VAT and national insurance rises and promised to implement a new living wage rate of \u00a310 per hour.\nMr. Corbyn said he aims to provide hope and opportunity for everybody.\nHe told the crowd that gathered in Bradford he believes British people are moving back towards Labour.\nOther details include creating nine new public bodies to run the water and sewage system in England, which is currently privatised.\nHe aims to end the practice of rewarding dividends to households and to save families \u00a3100 a year in energy bills.\nLabour also intend to provide families with children aged two to four with 30 hours free childcare.\n'Ensure the nation lives within its means'\nMr. Corbyn wants to eradicate austerity whilst ensuring the nation lives within its means.\nBut a draft version of the document was leaked last week, which revealed Labour intends to renationalise railways, the Royal Mail and electricity and transmission distribution networks.\nMr. McCluskey's remarks were not the first distraction from Labour's campaign message.\nThe Labour leader said the costs behind many of his policies had been checked before they were featured in the manifesto.\nBut the shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, contradicted his leader's message.\nGuido Fawkes reported that the shadow chancellor embarrassed Mr. Corbyn earlier on yesterday morning.\nIt appeared Mr. McDonnell was handed a note in the middle of an interview with BBC political correspondent, Nick Robinson, which stated how much the UK's budget deficit currently is as he was unable to answer Mr. Robinson's question about it.\nBoth the shadow home secretary, Diane Abbott, and the shadow education secretary, Angela Rayner, failed to clarify specific numbers regarding the number of policemen and schools in England respectively during live interviews.\nThe Conservatives responded to Labour's election errors so far by saying taxpayers would have to foot the party's unfunded spending commitments.\nTreasury minister David Gauke described the party's economic ideas as 'nonsensical', and said they would have to raise taxes dramatically because their sums do not add up.\nLen McCluskey has been general secretary of Unite since 2011.\nHe resigned in December 2016 to fight this year's leadership election.\nHe was re-elected as general secretary last month with 59,067 votes, beating his rival, Gerard Coyne, who won 53,544 votes.\nMr. McCluskey has recently appeared in the news for falling down the stairs of the building where Labour's manifesto was signed.",

The White House \"has not been involved in any discussions related to the extradition of Fethullah Gulen\", she said.\nSaudi Arabia is considered critical to Trump's effort to curb Iran's growing influence in the region.\nTurkey denies extradition request linked to Khashoggi\nErdogan has insisted Khashoggi's killing was ordered at the \"highest levels\" of the Saudi government and has kept pressure on de facto Saudi ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.\nA senior Turkish official told Reuters that Turkey's extradition request and its Khashoggi investigation were separate issues \"not connected in any way, shape or form\".\nGulen's US-based media adviser, Alp Aslandogan, said he had not been informed of any new US inquiry.\nCareer US officials 'furious'\nAccording to the NBC report, Trump officials had issued directives to the Justice Department to reopen Turkey's case for his extradition. When Justice Department officials replied that there was no new evidence and the case was closed in 2016, White House officials sent a request to the Homeland Security Department requesting information about Gulen\u2019s legal status in the US.\nThe septuagenarian cleric has a US green card and has been living in Pennsylvania\u2019s Pocono Mountains since 1999.\nCareer US officials at the Justice and Homeland Security departments pushed back on the White House requests, NBC reported. \"At first there were eye rolls, but once they realised it was a serious request, the career guys were furious,\" a senior US official told the network.\nA number of Trump aides and former aides, such as Mike Flynn, are believed to have close relations to Erdogan\u2019s government.\nIn a July 2017 interview with FRANCE 24, Gulen was asked if he feared those relations would result in a fast-track extradition to Turkey. \u201cI don\u2019t think either him [Trump] or any other US president will risk tarnishing the reputation of the United States around the world and submit to these unreasonable demands by the Turkish president.

The individuals included a top aide to the Saudi crown prince, Saud al-Qahtani, dubbed \"Mr. Hashtag\" and \u201cSaudi Arabia\u2019s Steve Bannon.\nThe US sanctions announcement came shortly after the Saudi public prosecutor announced that the kingdom was seeking the death penalty for five people in connection to the Khashoggi case.

Not pressure like, \u2018Oh, my God, I\u2019ve got to do good; I\u2019ve got all these people here.\u2019 I look at it as like: \u2018Well, there\u2019s no frickin\u2019 option now. I\u2019ve got to kick some ass because they\u2019re watching.\"\nSeptember 2008, about the treacherous weather conditions during the inaugural Red Bull Indianapolis GP \u2013 \"The last two or three laps, man, they were just \u2026 Hell, I almost crashed going slow. I was going slow, and I went to flick into a corner, and a gust hit me and pushed me out to the white line. I missed the apex by about, I don\u2019t know, 10 yards, and I thought, \u2018Jesus Christ, this is jacked up.\"\nSeptember 2008, about why he wears a U.S. Marines ball cap at races \u2013 \"My heart goes out to these guys, and I see what the reaction is, and that pisses me off more than anything. Here we\u2019ve got guys who are giving their lives to fight for our freedom and yet you still have people who are so against \u2026 I can understand being against the war, but at the end of the day, you still have to support the guys who are out there doing it. It doesn\u2019t matter what your belief might be \u2026 At the end of the day, they just don\u2019t get enough respect. That\u2019s the only thing I can do.\"\nApril 2009, about his growing anticipation to start the 2009 season \u2013 \"Yeah, I am. This week, in particular, I went out and shot the .50-caliber yesterday. Blowin\u2019 stuff up, and it feels like any other week. But every time I think about it or rest at night, I know I got the first race coming up. So yeah, I get excited about it.\"\nApril 2009, about the night race at Qatar \u2013 \"I like the night race. I think it\u2019s a cool little scenario. It\u2019s something special; you only have one a year. It\u2019s something a little bit different. I tend to ride faster when I can\u2019t see where I\u2019m going. Everything works out better that way.\"\nMay 2009, about his inability to find pace on sections of the Jerez circuit in Spain \u2013 \"I think it\u2019s me; I think it\u2019s the bike. I\u2019ve had one good result there, and I don\u2019t know why, there are a couple of corners on that track that, I don\u2019t know, I just seem to be dorking around there. There are a couple of corners that I follow somebody, and they pull like a bike-length or two on me through them, and I\u2019m like, \u2018What am I doing wrong?\"\nJune 2009, about the difference between the mentality of motorcycle racers and auto racers about crashes \u2013 \"Well, you can take that carbon-fiber shell. I don\u2019t want anything to do with that. When I crash, I want to get as far away from all that action as possible. That\u2019s the mentality of a motorcycle racer. It\u2019s like: \"I want to get away. It\u2019s just me, with a whole road of gravel. Not me and some 2,000-pound vehicle fricking hurling into a wall. I\u2019m out on that gig.\"\nJune 2009, about his opinion of changes to the circuit at Assen, Netherlands \u2013 \"I think they\u2019ve done a good job to try and screw everything up after all the changes to the track, to be honest with you. Obviously, when I first started going there on Superbikes, the track was just, whew, ahh, it was amazing. Every little part about that track was just amazing. If you messed up one corner, hell, it\u2019d screw you up for four corners down the road. They\u2019ve butchered it. I don\u2019t know, man. This gets back into politics and all this other stuff why they changed it. Hell, there\u2019s a motorcycle track there, and then people move in and start complaining about the noise. Go figure. If you didn\u2019t want to live by a motorcycle track, then pack your (stuff) and move on. You get enough people that complain, and next thing you know, they had to change the track for noise control. The track has been there for, hell, I don\u2019t know how many decades. Which is just, it\u2019s ridiculous why they had to change it. But welcome to socialism.\"\nJune 2009, about Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, home of the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix \u2013 \"That Turn 1 is still a mother. It doesn\u2019t even look like a turn. But honestly, going over that thing fifth gear tapped, it will put a little pucker in your buttocks region occasionally if you did it wrong.\"\nJuly 2009, describing the fast pace of fellow Yamaha riders Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo at Sachsenring, Germany \u2013 \"Hell, Valentino and Lorenzo were like scalded cats. They were gone.\"\nJuly 2009, about the use of electronics in MotoGP \u2013 \"Everybody has got it. Traction control, anti-wheelie control, frickin\u2019 scratch-your-ass-while-you\u2019re-racing control; whatever control it is, there\u2019s always some new thing they\u2019re coming out with \u2026 Our cornering speeds right now are so just astronomical that if you didn\u2019t have traction control, man, you would be in orbit every other frickin\u2019 race.\"\nJuly 2009, about a rule in 2010 that will prohibit rookies from riding on MotoGP factory teams \u2013 \"You know, being a right-wing extremist, the rules are made to be broken. That\u2019s the reason you implant a rule in the first place so a few years later you can come in and change it. I think it\u2019s B.S. \u2026 I just think whoever works the hardest makes the most money. I just think whoever rides the best gets the best rides. And when you try to implement any rules saying, no this or that, I don\u2019t know, I think it\u2019s all bullsh*t.\"\nPrevious articleWin a trip for two to the AMA Superbike race\nNext articleGoPro Helmet Hero goes HD",

        "raw_content": "Donald Glover Makes His Lando Debut To Comment On The Lack Of Black People In \u2018Star Wars\u2019 On \u2018SNL\u2019\nIf you weren\u2019t sure about Donald Glover\u2019s take on Lando Calrissian in Solo: A Star Wars Story before tonight, his appearance on SNL gave you a reason to keep calm. He showed up in full costume to play the smoothest man in the galaxy in an awards show sketch that also acts as a comment on the diversity in a galaxy far, far away. Lando is joined by Kenan Thompson returning in his Saw Gerrera character, and not many more people. It\u2019s a small gathering and it is representative of the number of black people that have appeared in Star Wars to this point.\nObviously, a few couldn\u2019t be in attendance because they were killed in the heat of battle \u2014 though Saw\u2019s presence is questionable because he got pulverized by the Death Star cannon in Rogue One \u2014 but it really is just a look at how few black people actually show up.\n\u2764\ufe0f Lando Calrissian \u2764\ufe0f#SNL @nbcsnl pic.twitter.com/sdydmhaHXe\n\u2014 GIPHY Pop (@GiphyPop) May 6, 2018\nYou could probably expand this out to people of color in general, especially before the prequels were released. But SNL is also missing a few big ones in there. Where is Panaka from The Phantom Menace? How about Finn from The Force Awakens? And Rogue One might\u2019ve been the most diverse film of the entire series. It only took until 2016 for us to get to that point.\nThe sketch certainly isn\u2019t that lofty, but it makes you think a bit. The main attraction is Glover\u2019s take on Lando and the appearance by Max Rebo at the end. Probably one of the show\u2019s best takes on Star Wars to this point.\nTOPICS#Star Wars#SNL\nTAGSDONALD GLOVERLANDO CALRISSIANSNLSolo: A Star Wars StoryStar Wars",

        "title": "NTT becomes IndyCar\u2019s new title sponsor",
        "raw_content": "Global information technology and communications company NTT is to considerably expand its involvement in the IndyCar Series by becoming title sponsor in place of Verizon.\nAlthough Verizon\u2019s longstanding relationship with Team Penske has been further extended in a multi-season agreement, its title sponsorship of the IndyCar Series was only ever a five-year deal, and came to an end in December.\nOver the last 15 months, rumored replacements for Verizon included Dubai-based Emirates airline, and also FedEx (a former CART Indy car sponsor), which is in the middle of a $1.5bn expansion at Indianapolis airport, its second biggest hub.\nHowever, NTT Corp. (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp.) the Japanese parent company of NTT DATA which is principal sponsor of Chip Ganassi Racing\u2019s #10 IndyCar, emerged as favorites in the off-season, and today it was announced that a multi-year agreement will see NTT become the title sponsor of the IndyCar Series.\nIn addition, it will also become the official technology partner of IndyCar, the IndyCar Series, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Indianapolis 500 and NASCAR\u2019s Brickyard 400 at IMS.\nNTT\u2019s stated aim is to enhance the fan experience by delivering digital innovations to evolve IndyCar's mobile application and by adopting NTT's proprietary Smart Platform \u201cto support the sport and its venues in delivering better insights into the racing series.\u201d\nPlano, TX.-based NTT DATA, which began its relationship with Ganassi in 2013 at the Indianapolis 500 on Ryan Briscoe\u2019s #8 entry, came on board full-time with the Australian driver the following season. In 2015, as Target restricted its principal sponsorship of Ganassi\u2019s IndyCar squad to Scott Dixon\u2019s #9 machine, so NTT DATA stepped up to become primary sponsor of the #10, then driven by Tony Kanaan.\nFollowing Target\u2019s withdrawal from IndyCar at the end of 2016, NTT Data became prominent on Dixon\u2019s car as well as backing Kanaan, before Ganassi landed PNC Bank fulltime for Dixon in 2018. NTT DATA thus reverted to sponsoring the #10 which was driven by Ed Jones last year, and which will be piloted by rookie Felix Rosenqvist this coming season.\nSpeaking at the launch of the partnership at Detroit\u2019s North American International Auto Show, NTT\u2019s president and CEO Jun Sawada stated: \u201cNTT is proud to be associated with IndyCar and accelerate the future of smart racing.\n\u201cTechnological innovations have the potential to change the sport and fan experience drastically. NTT, along with our partners, aims to bring the Smart World to life as we have done for Smart City, Smart Entertainment, Smart Mobility and Smart Manufacturing.\nMark Miles, president and CEO of Hulman & Company, which owns IndyCar and Indianapolis Motor Speedway, enthused about the new partnership with NTT, whose companies \u2013 including NTT DATA, NTT Communications, Dimension Data and NTT Security \u2013 generate over $106 billion in annual revenue.\n\u201cHaving a strong technology partner is critically important to IndyCar's continued growth,\u201d said Miles, \u201cso we are thrilled to welcome NTT as our new title sponsor.\n\u201cIndyCar's rise in popularity is a testament to the fact that we've made the sport as accessible as possible to our fans and we plan to continue in that mission.\n\u201cWe have a history with NTT through NTT DATA\u2019s involvement in the sport with Chip Ganassi Racing. We know this partnership will help us attract the next generation of fans to what remains the most competitive racing program on the planet.\"\nNTT is ranked at 55 in the Fortune Global 500 and provides service to more than 80 percent of the Fortune Global 100 companies.",

        "title": "Consolidating 2014 With Record Performances - News - Ray White Uxcel",
        "raw_content": "Consolidating 2014 With Record Performances\nAfter so many years of home owners yearning for growth in the real estate industry in Australia in New Zealand, it seems 2014 really delivered on the promise of brighter days ahead. Real estate in Australia is nearing its second year of effective recovery, while New Zealand is about a year ahead, recently passing it\u2019s third anniversary of sustained property activity.\nReal estate in Australia and New Zealand\nIn a look back at the Ray White Group\u2019s performance for December, Brian White revealed some amazing outcomes. On 13 January Mr White noted that the group had a month that surpassed all previous December trading figures to date \u2013 a $3.37billion result!\nThe huge effort by all of the Ray White Group was only just shy of the all-time record of $3.6billion set in November. However, in a month that is dominated by holidays and time off, it is an achievement of note.\nRay White New Zealand managed to record its best month to date in December 2014, with a figure of $704million for the month. The company is going from strength-to-strength, but this is also largely due to the market conditions that we are all enjoying. By actively anticipating market movements, the Ray White Group has managed to stay at the forefront of real estate activity in Australia, New Zealand and the rest of Asia-Pacific.\nLast year was a monumental one for the entire mortgage broking industry. Mr White reported that brokers were responsible for 51.5 per cent of all residential home loans in the September quarter. This is another indicator of the public increasingly seeing the benefit of engaging the services of a broker when arranging a home loan.\nIn fact, in December, Loan Market achieved its highest settled loans in every state bar one, as well as 15 per cent growth on average results for the financial year.\nCommercial real estate in Australia\nThe success of the real estate market has not been confined to residential dealings, with the commercial side of the business transacting 65 per cent more deals than in the previous year. Mr White wrote that investment sales, development site activity and leasing all contributed to this.\nThis is a good indication of increased levels of business confidence throughout the country, and confirms the findings of the Property Council\u2019s Performance of Construction Index, which showed that confidence increased across the country by four points on the index from the September quarter.\nCommercial real estate in New Zealand\nIndustrial and commercial activity was at very high levels throughout 2014 for the New Zealand market. Ray White Commercial Auckland recorded over $500million in settled sales for the year \u2013 more than double the figure for 2013. Bruce Whillans, managing director of Ray White Commercial in New Zealand noted that a large amount of this success was due to increased interest from foreign buyers.\nOver 50 per cent of the division\u2019s total was attributed to resident Chinese or Chinese companies, while several high-profile sales contributed to the overall total.\nRay White Commercial Auckland succeeded in a number of areas throughout 2014 to make the year a success overall. These included CBD office towers, industrial centres, high profile business addresses and underwrites as well.\nThe diverse nature of commercial real estate in both the Australian and New Zealand market makes for a business that always has its ears to the ground. Mr Whillans concluded his Auckland Market Update for the end of 2014 with optimism for the year ahead, based on the level of business confidence, steady interest rates and increased overseas investment.\nThe same favourable conditions are the hallmark of the Australian commercial sector at the moment, potentially making 2015 another year for the record books.",

The uniforms were then shuffled down the teams. So former varsity uniforms were given to junior varsity and former junior varsity uniforms were given to the freshman team. This left old freshman uniforms to be thrown away.\n\u201cI was then contacted by Mr. Isaac Zama who asked if I was willing to donate the old freshman uniforms to needy children in Africa. I replied saying if he could facilitate the process, I would be more than happy to donate them.\u201d Nelson said.\nPlayers who participated in the drive said it gave them a certain sentimental feeling.\n\u201cIt made me feel good to help these kids who are underprivileged.\u201d Senior Keegan Ruddy said.\nAs a result, 4 full sets of team uniforms were sent to needy schools. The first half were sent to Senegal and the other half are currently on their way to Cameroon.\n\u201cOur basketball family is growing a little bit.\u201d Nelson said.\nThis is the first time the basketball team has participated in a program such as this calling the program \u201cBasketball gives Back.\u201d\nTags: boys basketball, Needy Kids",

Tessin said this spot of the course will likely be the most \"picturesque.\"\nThe renovations added a golf patio as well, Tessin said, which will be the spot for member events and the start and end point for golf tournaments.\nThis work is part of Phase II of the VCC's overall renovations.

        "raw_content": "Ashley Miller marries Derek Anderson\nBy Tonya Abeln\nIf you don\u2019t believe in fairytales, perhaps you should allow Derek Anderson\u2019s love story to change your mind. On New Year\u2019s Day 2017, the former UK basketball standout and NBA star took the hand in marriage of international runway model, former Ms. Kentucky United States and Glamour Magazine Phenomenal Woman of the Year, Ashley Miller. Don\u2019t let the sparkle of the tiara distract you from the substance that earned it. That\u2019s actually Dr. Ashley Miller \u2013 community advocate and business owner with a Ph.D. in nursing. Their union joins two recognizable, dynamic and respected individuals, and their wedding day was befitting on that stature. But their lives haven\u2019t always been a fairytale.\nAshley uses her platform to share her story of a childhood home plagued with addiction issues and recognized education as her way out. Derek was abandoned at a very young age and was homeless for much of his childhood. He knew his athleticism would be his way off the streets. Their paths crossed at an event for the Kentucky Derby and a courtship began. On May 5, the same date they had met for the first time, Derek told Ashley he needed to run by his old neighborhood. He took her to the bench where he had slept when he was homeless, the place where he had looked up at the sky and prayed to God to deliver him from his current circumstances. She looked up to the sky with him, imagining how broken and desperate he must have felt lying alone on that bench. When she lowered her gaze, Derek was on one knee asking her to be his bride, never to be alone again.\nWedding planning was something they wanted to do together. Derek recalls, \u201cI know the saying goes, \u2018happy wife, happy life,\u2019 but I really wanted to be involved with the planning process. I wanted it to reflect us together.\u201d Ashley agreed: \u201cSome brides get so stressed in the details of planning that they can\u2019t wait for the day to be over. I wanted it to be a fun experience for us to enjoy together.\u201d\nThe only detail they didn\u2019t decide as a couple was the wedding gown. Ashley envisioned a combination of two special designs and looked to none other than acclaimed evening gown designer Sherri Hill to make her dream dress a reality. Sherri Hill doesn\u2019t normally design for bridal, but as a personal favor to Ashley, the two met at Miss Priss in Lexington, Kentucky, to collaborate.\nOnce they determined that the ceremony and reception would take place at The Henry Clay, both Ashley and Derek wanted to give much consideration to food. The two looked no further than their favorite date night spot. Derek explains, \u201cWe have always been dedicated to a weekly Tuesday night date night, and we always go to Ruth\u2019s Chris. They know us well and we have a regular seat, so when we asked them to cater our wedding day, they were fantastic to work with.\u201d\nSurrounded by 450 friends and family, Ashley describes the moment that she first locked eyes with Derek as the most memorable of the day. Miss Kentucky 2016 Clark Davis serenaded them both with, \u201cMake Me Whole.\u201d Ashley delivered her original vows, and as Derek started to recite his, he recalls, \u201cEvery emotion I\u2019ve ever felt about Ashley hit me all at once.\u201d His genuine nervousness and excitement drew encouraging laughs from the audience followed by tears when Derek and his sons surrounded Ashley in a circle to symbolize how she was now a part of their family in a bond that was never-ending and could not be broken.\nThe sincerity of the ceremony was perfectly balanced by the festive and fun atmosphere of the cocktail hour and reception that followed. With a shared passion for basketball (the couple engages in the occasional one-on-one hoops matchups, and despite what you may assume, the former NBA pro doesn\u2019t always emerge the victor) the sport was an appropriate theme to the celebration. Their friendly rivalry over UK and UofL was demonstrated in their wedding party\u2019s attire. Derek\u2019s groomsmen wore white tuxedos with blue accessories. Ashely\u2019s bridesmaids wore red and white gowns custom-made by Pare\u2019 Boutique. Each guest received a \u201cticket\u201d to the reception where the bridal party was introduced starting lineup-style and were welcomed by a host of \u201ccheerleaders,\u201d all women Ashley has mentored in recent years. The evening was perfectly accented with d\u00e9cor by Millenium Events and was topped with a cake by Lorie Blevins that had been driven three hours for the occasion.\nThe couple\u2019s custom DNA logo was a visual motif throughout the day. Besides the obvious combination of their initials, Ashley explains, \u201cDNA also influences who you love. When you realize that every step in your life has led you to cross paths with the one person on this earth you\u2019ve been prepared to love and be life partners with, you realize that DNA is much more than microbiology. It can also mean eternal love.\u201d\nPhotos by Ryan Kendall",

It offers an overview of the various approaches to researching vernacular architecture and the overall results. The thesis also explores the modes of thought of pre and post industrial societies and the various influences that come to bear on thought. This thesis examines the thought processes involved in the initial stage of design and proposes the use of vernacular thought process, on a conscious level, as an aid to this stage of design. It offers, as an example, a preliminary design to show how this can be addressed",

        "raw_content": "Below are the required minimum pay rates for general artist assisting in two capacities. They reflect an estimated living wage calculus for New York City, which currently ranks as having the highest cost of living in the U.S., and where there is a high concentration of artists and artist assistants. To determine an equivalent living wage in another region please start with MIT's Living Wage Calculator.\nArtist Assisting Starting Rate: $25/hour minimum\nManagerial Positions Starting Rate: $30/hour minimum\nWhen the employing artist and assistant discuss and agree upon an equitable rate, they should consider other factors, including previous experience, if there are special skills required or being offered, duration of work, regularity of agreed-upon work, number of hours worked per week, whether it is part-time or full-time, hourly or salaried, what benefits the employer can offer if the assistant is classified as an employee, or what the assistant will need to take on if classified as an independent contractor. In addition to a salary or hourly pay, some artists implement agreements to pay their assistant(s) a percentage of the sale of artworks to which they have contributed. All of these factors, as well as others, are accounted for in the WAGENCY Work Agreement.\nInstitutional Rates for Assistant Labor\nEmploying artists should advocate for equitable pay for their assistants when working in an institutional setting. Assistant labor must be understood by institutions as a cost of production in the mounting of exhibitions which is not the responsibility of the exhibiting artist. However, cases may arise in which outside labor may conflict with in-house staff responsibilities and hours. These should be carefully negotiated to ensure that assistants do not displace or reduce the hours of existing institutional workers.\nSuggested rates for assisting an employer during exhibition installation are budgeted for a 10-hour day. For example, an individual whose install rate is set at $35/hour would suggest the institution budget for a day rate of $350. Rates are higher to reflect the additional expense of being away (if applicable), working more demanding hours, and to acknowledge assistants' specialized skills and knowledge of their employers\u2019 work. Travel, lodging, and per diem(s) for the installing assistant(s) are typically budgeted in addition to the day rate.\nThe employing artist's role in collecting and withholding taxes will depend on worker classification. If it has been determined that the assistant is an employee (W-2), the employing artist will be responsible for collecting and filing half of the assistant's Social Security and Medicare taxes (FICA).\nThe employing artist's obligation to provide benefits for things like insurance, pension plans, paid vacation, sick days, and disability insurance will also depend on worker classification. The IRS notes that businesses generally do not grant these benefits to independent contractors, but the lack of these types of benefits does not necessarily mean the worker is an independent contractor. The WAGENCY Work Agreement includes a list of possible benefits that the employing artist can provide.\nAs required by the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the IRS has outlined the requirements for mandating an employer to provide healthcare. In summary, the IRS states that the \"vast majority of employers fall below the ALE (Applicable Large Employer) size threshold and therefore are not subject to the employer shared responsibility provisions.\" The ALE size threshold is generally 50 full-time employees including full-time equivalent employees. A comprehensive Q&A about the Employer Shared Responsibility Provisions Under the Affordable Care Act can be found here.",

And, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Wonder Woman is the first female-focused production to achieve this level of success, made all the more impressive by the fact that 52 percent of the audience was female. Most successful superhero films rest on 60 percent-plus male audiences, the site reports.\nAnd critical reception is following suit \u2014 the film currently holds an impressive 93 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with The New York Times noting \"This film, directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Gal Gadot, tells an interesting story that cleverly combines genre elements into something reasonably fresh, touching and fun.\"\nIf the hero's allure has drawn you in, it seems likely there will be more from Princess Diana to come.\n\"Patty's vision mesmerized the audience. She is a real talent. Clearly, this is a movie that is resonating with moviegoers around the globe,\" Warner Bros. domestic distribution president Jeff Goldstein said, according to THR. \"I am sure we will be seeing a lot more of Diana on the big screen.\"\nThese Pop Stars Really Remind Us of Superheroes:\nNext: 'Wonder Woman' Flips The Superhero Script\nSource: \u2018Wonder Woman\u2019 Deflects Doubt + Makes Huge Box Office Debut",

        "raw_content": "Fellow white people; if you, like me, are looking for ways to express your sorrow and outrage over the police shootings of black people and the systemic inequities that fail to keep police accountable; if you are looking for ways to \u201ctake a knee\u201d and make visible and urgent that outrage; if you are looking to build your capacities to have meaningful conversations with your friends, children, neighbors and co-workers; if you are ready to move into action and be part of this beautiful black-led multiracial movement for justice, we welcome you.\nMartin Luther King said, \u201cOur lives begin to end the day that we become silent about things that matter.\u201d Fifty years later, the silence we white people have learned to live with has become deafening. The impacts of racism hurt black people and other people of color in violent, shameful and awful ways. Our children see this. We saw it as children. We learned to swallow that awfulness, to perhaps even hate it, but ultimately, we learned to live with it in silence. But this is no passive silence, it is an active one and it has sustained the oppression of the black community for too long. This turning away, this lack of urgency, taught us, and teaches our white children generation after generation, that this is an issue about others. Not us. This fractures white people deep in the soul, reproduces white supremacy, and has hurt us in ways that we don\u2019t even recognize. We have to stop this narrative at the root. We have to break the silence and say Black Lives Matter until we live in a country that honors, respects, and cherishes the value of black lives.\nFifty years ago, Stokely Carmichael asked, \u201cCan white people move inside their own community and start tearing down racism where in fact it exists?\u201d\nWearing a t-shirt is just a first step. But if it is a step towards breaking the silence that we have all learned to live with, take it. Now.\nOther ways you can support this movement moment is to financially contribute to the on-the-ground organizing happening right now in Charlotte.\nCLT QTPOC Coalition; for general support of organizing actions, including (but not limited to) banners, signs, supplies, food, water, camping supplies, medical supplies, cameras, portable phone chargers, and materials to construct an altar at the site of the murder.\nThe Freedom Fighter Bond Fund; a general fund sponsored by the Durham Solidarity Center that supports costs associated with direct action and protest across North Carolina, including bail and legal costs.\nIn Tulsa, following the police murder of Terence Crutcher, folks on the ground are asking for donations to be made to the family through this link: https://www.gofundme.com/crutchermemorial\nAlso, please consider joining SURJ, a national network of white people organizing other white people for racial justice. Check out the website and find a chapter organizing near you: http://www.showingupforracialjustice.org\nYou can buy union made Black Lives Matter t-shirts at www.wearoutthesilence.org. All proceeds from the sale of these t-shirts goes to support black-led organizing.\nAnna Blackshaw\nphoto credit: http://www.veteranstoday.com",

        "raw_content": "Editor once wrote on author\u2019s manuscript that Indians are pass\u00e9\nBy Dianne Meilli\nIn an era when few Aboriginal books were written by First Nations, M\u00e9tis or Inuit authors, publishers very nearly rejected the first manuscripts of Basil Johnston, 2004 Indspire recipient in the Heritage and Spirituality category.\nEditors who read the Anishinaabe author and scholar\u2019s early writings agreed his work was authentic, but feared it had no potential market.\nFortunately, Johnston struck a friendship with Jack McClelland and Anna Porter of McClelland and Stewart; they supported the 1976 printing of his early classic \u201cOjibway Heritage\u201d. A commitment from the federal government\u2019s department of Indian Affairs to purchase 931 copies of the book \u2013 $5,000 worth \u2013 sealed the deal.\nA similar lukewarm reception met Johnston\u2019s 1978 offering\u2014a collection of humorous stories called \u201cMoose Meat and Wild Rice\u201d. One of McClelland and Stewart\u2019s editors recommended the rejection of it partly on the grounds that Indians were \u201ccurrently pass\u00e9.\u201d\nBut Anna Porter fought for the title to be published, according to the Historical Perspectives on Canadian Publishing website. Thus began the long and distinguished career of one of Canada\u2019s most successful and widely read contemporary Aboriginal authors.\nIn total, the Neyaashiinigmiing (Cape Croker) First Nation writer produced 15 books in English and five in Anishinaabe, including the popular \u201cIndian School Days\u201d, which recounts his experience in St. Claver\u2019s (residential) School in northern Ontario.\nJohnston was so prolific, it was his store of manuscripts that helped publisher Kateri Akiwenzie-Damm, also of Neyaashiinigmiing First Nation, to keep going when her Kegedonce Press was struggling\n\u201cHe was like an adopted uncle who helped us keep going during some dark days when the publishing industry on the whole was suffering, and as a publisher of Indigenous literature we were struggling,\u201d she explained.\n\u201cThen we realized Basil had quite a few unpublished manuscripts and we knew it was our role to ensure that as many as possible were published. He allowed us to publish at least one or two of his books each year. Doing this gave us renewed purpose and we felt a strong sense of responsibility to do what we could to get his work out.\u201d\nJohnston once said his favorite book was \u201cCrazy Dave\u201d because it is about his family and his reserve. Through his masterful storytelling, he reveals his people\u2019s history via the equally hilarious and heartbreaking antics of his handicapped Uncle David during the early years of the 20th century in Cape Croker.\nIn a 2006 review of \u201cCrazy Dave\u201d, David Cox on Rambles.net wrote \u201clike Roberto Benigni in the movie \u201cLife is Beautiful\u201d, Johnston gets you to laugh before you weep. One hilarious scene turns bitter as Uncle David \u2013 astoundingly mistaken for a Japanese soldier-spy \u2013 gets beaten up and jailed by ignorant white people in the tiny town of Wiarton, Ont.\n\u201cJohnston uses bitter irony (in the book), especially when discussing European history through the eyes of his Anishinaabe characters, one of whom observes \u2018the civilized nations could not let bygones be bygones in a civilized manner. They had never settled their misunderstandings except by war.\u201d\nWhen Johnston\u2019s grandmother hears about the Bataan Death March in the Philippines, Cox writes that she wryly remarks in the book \u201cthe Americans did the same to our people. It was alright for them to do it, but when others do the same thing to them it\u2019s a crime, an atrocity.\u201d\nThrough the comical antics of Uncle David, readers appreciate he was a man who didn\u2019t fit in. \u201cAs long as Uncle David stayed where he belonged and didn\u2019t bother anyone \u2026 neighbours could put up with him; as long as North American Indians kept the peace and didn\u2019t rock the boat, society could tolerate them,\u201d Johnston wrote.\nAs a tireless promoter of the Anishinaabe language, Johnston believed the key to understanding culture is language, and he was tireless in his efforts to preserve it. His meticulous work resulted in an Anishinaabe lexicon and thesaurus, as well as language audio programs on cassette and CD.\nJohnston said it was a Grade 5 student who prompted him to begin writing and reintroduce his people to the traditions they had abandoned or never learned about. In an interview in Brandon, Manitoba\u2019s Westman Journal, Johnston said he was a guest in the boys\u2019 classroom in 1968.\n\u201cI spoke to a young boy who said he was bored. The teacher put him in a little group to research Indians. That\u2019s what he and his group did for five weeks. When he finished his complaint (to me) he said, \u2018is that all there is to Indians?\u2019 Then I looked at the books that were available to him and his teachers. There was no depth.\u201d\nJohnston \u201cdove a little deeper\u201d and began to find out about his people, learning there was much more to their story than hunting and fishing, food preparation, clothing and dwellings. For his work he received the Order of Ontario, the Queen\u2019s Jubilee medal, and honorary doctorates from the University of Toronto and Laurentian University.\nJohnston was born in 1929 on the Parry Island Indian Reserve in Ontario. He graduated from Loyola College in Montreal and in 1959 married his sweetheart, Lucie Desroches. He taught history at Earl Haig Secondary School in North York until 1970 and lectured at various colleges and universities.\nFrom 1970 until his retirement in 1994, he worked as an ethnologist at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). In 2009 and 2010, he was a Brandon University visiting professor.\nJohnston passed away in Wiarton on Sept. 8, 2015 at age 86. In an obituary, his family revealed that his passions beyond writing, storytelling and lecturing were \u201cfiddle music and baked beans.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Treasury Wine Estates rating cut as China market cools\nInvestment bank Goldman Sachs has said Treasury Wine Estates is too optimistic about China, as new Chinese customs figures show that growth in wine imports to the country has slowed in 2017.\nTreasury Wine Estates\u2019 share price slipped by nearly 5% on Monday 31 July after Goldman Sachs downgraded its stock to \u2018sell\u2019 from \u2018neutral\u2019. Treasury\u2019s shares were still trading 26% higher than at this time last year.\n\u2018In our view, Treasury is priced for unrealistically high volume growth in China,\u2019 said Goldman analysts, ahead of Treasury\u2019s full-year results announcement on 17 August. Analysts were forecasting up to 2019.\n\u2018We see pressure on both price and margin in the Chinese market,\u2019 analysts said.\nIts comments came just a few days after the latest wine import figures from Chinese customs showed a slowdown in the growth of shipments from around the world so far in 2017.\nAustralia saw very strong growth in 2016 and China still imported 30% more Australian wine in the first six months of 2017 than in the first half of last year.\nBut there has been a 22% drop in the average bottle price of Australian wines arriving into China, showed the customs figures. Other nations, particularly France, also saw a gap between volume and value growth in the customs figures.\nSylvia Wu, editor of DecanterChina.com and who has been following the Chinese wine market for several years, said that this was partly driven by a shift towards more mainstream wine consumption in China and importers\u2019 demands for lower-priced wines.\nLower tariffs on Australian wines entering China might also have contributed.\nAustralia has traditionally commanded one of the highest bottle prices for its wines in China, among the international set of wine producing countries looking to increase their foothold in the country.\nOverall, Chinese customs figures released last week show that the total value of bottled wines entering China during the first six months of 2017 rose by 3.3% versus the same period of 2016. The volume of imports continued to grow, by 14% for the first half of 2017.\nImports recovered in the second quarter from a drop in the first three months of 2017.\nBut, the report shows that the growth has slowed down compared to first half of 2016, which saw a 22% increase in volume and 17.2% increase in value year-on-year.\nSee the new China wine import figures\u2026\nNEWER POSTDom P\u00e9rignon says it will deliver Champagne in one hour\nOLDER POSTJefford on Monday: Profiling prince charming",

        "raw_content": "Rollercoaster fun! #palaceplayland #galaxicoaster #rollercoaster #maine #vacation #vacationland\nA post shared by @ cdninsalem on Jul 1, 2016 at 1:38pm PDT\nPalace Playland To Replace Old Rollercoaster With Massive New One Next Summer\nIt's been more than 20 summers that the Galaxi Coaster has been thrilling riders young and old at Old Orchard Beach's Palace Playland. But if you didn't get a ride in this weekend, you won't get a chance to say goodbye. Next summer, there will be a new roller coaster featured, a one-of-its-kind in the United States.\nAccording to the Portland Press Herald, the owners of Palace Playland have decided it's time for an upgrade to their beachfront amusement park. After the park closes for the season, workers will dismantle the Galaxi Coaster and sell it to a buyer, and in the winter/spring, a brand new roller coaster will take its place.\nThat coaster will be called the Sea Viper, and will be imported to the United States from Italy. There will be stark differences between the Galaxi and the new Sea Viper, including its height. The Sea Viper will stand 70 feet tall, overlooking the picturesque oceanfront. It will also be about 50 feet longer than the Galaxi, and have a larger capacity for riders, meaning shorter lines.\nThe project will cost the owners of Palace Playland roughly 4 million dollars. Part of the cost is buying an adjacent parking lot next to the new ride as additional space will be needed to house it.\nMaine has not seen a new roller coaster since Funtown/Splashtown assembled the largest wooden roller coaster in New England, the Excalibur, in 1998. Without any substantial project delays, the new Sea Viper should be fully operational in time for the 2018 season in Old Orchard Beach.\nSource: Palace Playland To Replace Old Rollercoaster With Massive New One Next Summer\nFiled Under: Maine, Old Orchard Beach, roller coaster",

        "raw_content": "The federal Sex Discrimination Commissioner Kate Jenkins will lead a national inquiry into sexual harassment in the workplace.\nThe announcement was made on Wednesday morning by the Human Rights Commission and the Minister for Women, Kelly O\u2019Dwyer, on behalf of the Turnbull government.\nThe 12 month long inquiry will be jointly funded by the Human Rights Commission and the government and will seek to identify the cost that sexual harassment poses to individuals and businesses.\n\u201cSexual harassment in the workplace is an issue of economic security and it needs to be examined in that way,\u201d the Minister for Women, Kelly O\u2019Dwyer MP, told Women\u2019s Agenda. \u201cInternational and national coverage of the #metoo movements and related cases have highlighted the prevalence and detrimental impact of sexual harassment on individuals and organisations.\u201d\nThe spotlight on sexual harassment has turned the tide and created a clear and unprecedented appetite for change. I\u2019ll be announcing a national inquiry into workplace #sexualharassment with Minister for Women @KellyODwyer later this morning #metoo pic.twitter.com/wodYhWWWMu\n\u2014 Kate Jenkins (@Kate_Jenkins_) June 19, 2018\n\u201cThe National Inquiry will involve an in-depth examination of sexual harassment in the workplace, nation-wide consultation and extensive research,\u201d Jenkins said. \u201cWe will examine the current Australian legal framework on sexual harassment, including a review of complaints made to state and territory anti-discrimination agencies. In making our recommendations, we will consider the changing work environment and existing good practice being undertaken by employers to prevent and respond to workplace sexual harassment.\u201d\nWhile the prevalence of harassment at work is increasingly well understood the cost is not. For too many victims of sexual harassment at work, who are overwhelmingly female, there is often a financial penalty attached: whether that\u2019s because they leave their place of employment, are forced out or get overlooked for promotions and other opportunities.\nO\u2019Dwyer says it is an unsatisfactory component of an unacceptable problem.\n\u201cWe already know that the personal and career consequences of workplace sexual harassment are very significant,\u201d she says. \u201cThe inquiry will draw on economic modelling so we will have a better sense of how much it is costing individual Australians as well as well as Australian businesses.\u201d\nO\u2019Dwyer says the HRC is uniquely placed to undertake the project due to its independent status, its legislative mandate in relation to sexual harassment under the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 and its specific expertise in relation to workplace sexual harassment.\n\u201cThis Inquiry \u2013 a world first \u2013 will consider the drivers of sexual harassment in the workplace, the use of technology and social media and the legal framework, as well existing practices to inform practical recommendations that will assist Australian workplaces deal with this sensitive and difficult issue,\u201d O\u2019Dwyer says.\nIt will cost an estimated $900,000, of which the Turnbull government is contributing $500,000. The minister for women says funding this accords with its commitment to improving women\u2019s safety and providing the right economic settings so that women have every opportunity to engage in paid work and access financial security.\nMore than 20 per cent of people over 15 years old in Australia have been sexually harassed, with 68 per cent of those harassed in the workplace.\n'It is not a historic phenomenon nor simply a US problem.' @Kate_Jenkins_ on sexual harassment, #MeToo & the turning tide. https://t.co/dfynYac2WX\n\u2014 Women's Agenda (@WomensAgenda) December 12, 2017\nO\u2019Dwyer told Women\u2019s Agenda she is confident with Kate Jenkins\u2019 leadership and expertise at the helm, the inquiry represents an opportunity for meaningful change.\n\u201cWe need to continue working to create a society where this kind of conduct is unthinkable, and where sexual harassment at work is not something people simply have to put up with,\u201d Jenkins said. \u201cI believe this national inquiry is a huge step in the right direction.\u201d\nThe significance of an inquiry of this nature being held cannot be understated. Even a year ago it would have been almost impossible to fathom. Fortunately, or unfortunately, the scourge of harassment is no longer being swept under the carpet. Sunlight, they say, is the great disinfectant and a national inquiry amounts to more sunlight than workplace harassment has ever received.\nOn Tuesday evening ahead of the announcement being made Tracey Spicer applauded the inquiry.\nSomething very exciting will be announced at 6am \u2013 a landmark moment in the #metoo movement in Australia. This will take an awful lot of pressure off the many volunteers who've been calling for change through @NOW_aust and all the survivors of sexual harassment in the workplace.\n\u2014 Tracey Spicer AM (@TraceySpicer) June 19, 2018\nNot only will the inquiry take some pressure off the volunteers who have been fighting for change but it provides a formal commitment \u2013 supported by the government \u2013 that sexual harassment is an endemic problem that needs addressing. To say this recognition and action is welcome is an understatement.\nTags #MeToo #timesup gender equality Human Rights Commission Kate Jenkins kelly o'dwyer sexism sexual harassment at work\nPrevious ArticleSnappy & dismissive comments: When does disrespect become workplace bullying?\nNext ArticlePreparing a modern and diverse government: The changing face of ANZSOG",

For some time he studied divinity at Oxford; but it does not appear that he took any degree in that faculty. He was intimately acquainted with, and a great favourite of, Edward Lee, archbishop of York; at whose request he wrote against Erasmus and Luther. He died on the 16th of November 1531, and was buried in the | chapel belonging to the Charter-house. Pits gives him the character of a man of quick and discerning genius; of great piety and learning, and fervent zeal; much conversant in the study of the scriptures; and that led an angelical life among men. Bale, on the contrary, represents him as a proud, forward, and arrogant person; born for disputing and wrangling; and adds, that Erasmus, in one of his letters to Richard bishop of Winchester, styles him an ignorant fellow, encouraged by Lee, and vain-glorious even to madness, but Bale allows that he was a very clear sophist, or writer. \u201cJohn Batmanson,\u201d Mr. Warton observes, \u201ccontroverted Erasmus\u2019s Commentary on the New Testament with a degree of spirit and erudition, which was unhappily misapplied, but would have done honour to the cause of his antagonist, in respect to the learning displayed.\u201d Dodd says that he revised the two works against Erasmus and Luther, and corrected several unguarded expressions. Others say that he retracted both, the titles of which were, 1. \u201cAnimadversiones in Annotationes Erasrni in Novum Testamentum.\u201d 2. \u201cA Treatise against some of M. Luther\u2019s writings.\u201d The rest of his works were, 3. \u201cCommentaria in Proverbia Salomonis.\u201d 4. \u201cin Cantica Canticorum.\u201d 5. \u201cDe unica Magdalena, contra Fabrum Stapulensem.\u201d 6. \u201cInstitutiones Noviciorum.\u201d 7. \u201cDe contemptu Mundi.\u201d 8. \u201cDe Christo duodenni;\u201d A Homily on Luke ii. 42. 9. \u201cOn the words Missus est,\u201d &c.

        "raw_content": "What Airlines should be prepared for in 2019\nAs the industry is undergoing some significant changes, we are closely monitoring trends to stay ahead of the game and update our airline customers on the many exciting movements going on in the industry at the moment.\nAirlines = OTAs?\nNDC (New Distribution Capability) has been a large topic in 2018. It enables the travel industry to transform the way air products are retailed to corporations, and passengers, by addressing the industry\u2019s current distribution limitations: product differentiation and time-to-market, access to full and rich air content and finally, transparent shopping experience (IATA).\nAs the NDC standard moves towards industrialization in 2019, a major focus on distribution is observed as a response. Challenges like growing competition, increased fuel prices, and unremarkable economic conditions impact airlines\u2019 revenue-generating potential. As a result, airlines are noting the opportunity to think of products as more than just a seat. It is about selling ancillary products and services to meet more of the passengers\u2019 total travel needs. Over the last years, airlines increasingly benefit from selling hotel accommodation on their website. When we look at the fact that cross-selling a hotel room to a loyal customer offers potentially more profit than the flight itself, it is considered as a source to diversify revenue and increase margins. Today, airlines are actually taking it one step further by becoming travel agents, offering complete packages including combinations of flights, hotels, and car rental services.\nAs airlines will truly embrace the concept of travel retailers rather than transportation providers, our Passenger Retail Solution combined with our unique hotel offerings is designed for airlines who are looking to offer their passengers the most modern online experience but without compromising their spending budget.\nMore Tech Than Ever\nWe are aware that personalization and improving passenger processes will remain a top priority for all areas of the travel industry. To remain one step ahead of passenger demands and to guarantee personalized experiences at every stage of the customer journey, we will see more and more use of artificial intelligence, data, and analytics. From apps to in-flight entertainment to airport security, technology is an ever-evolving part of the air travel experience.\nBiometric technology will likely see more growth in 2019. It\u2019s a combination of facial and iris recognition used for security screening. Biometric identification is already used for airline and airport security and is also developing in identification for boarding processes, as well as for car rental and hotel check-in. Delta Air Lines, for instance, launched America\u2019s first \u201cbiometric terminal\u201d in Atlanta, which uses facial recognition to identify passengers as they proceed through the terminal on their way to and from foreign shores.\nLet\u2019s Take a Look at Mobile\nToday, electronic boarding passes and online check-in via smartphone are the preferable alternatives to paper formats, especially within the age range of 25 to 54. Furthermore, travelers are increasingly using mobile devices to book flights and travel. As mobile is currently shaping consumer travel, airlines should become aware of arising opportunities to gain competitive advantages. You can find more detailed insights about this topic in recent articles of our blog.",

(Photo by Jody Overstreet)\nWelcome to October in Alaska. Even though most of the travelers have gone home, there still are some options to hop in the car (or ride the rails) to see some countryside before the snow flies.\nHeading south along Turnagain Arm, the first stop is Alyeska Resort. Of course, the folks at Alyeska are keen on the snow flying sooner rather than later. But right now the tram is shut down. \"You can still hike up the mountain,\" said Ben Napolitano, Alyeska's marketing manager. \"Just remember, you have to hike down, too!\"\nThe pool and the spa still are open, though, as well as a couple of restaurants. So the resort is a turn-key getaway. Rooms are going for $99 per night midweek, or $129 per night on the weekends.\nIf Alyeska's not far enough away from home, keep going to Seward. Although the last sightseeing cruise sails on Sunday, Oct. 15, Seward still is a fun destination. The Alaska SeaLife Center is open year-round. It's always fun to see the sea lions in the giant aquariums too.\nHarbor360 Hotel, formerly the Holiday Inn Express, sits right on the water by \"J\" Dock. Rooms are available for as little as $79 per night between now and December.\n[Here are this year's best PFD deals on airfare]\nIf you still want to go kayaking (weather permitting), check in with Monica Cooper Chase at Adventure Sixty North. \"Our favorite kayak trip this time of year is out to Bridal Veil Falls,\" said Chase. \"But if the weather isn't cooperating we can set up a trip up to Exit Glacier or something else.\"\nIt's always fun to make the drive to Homer \u2014 even as the days get shorter. The top of the hill overlooking Homer is usually a photo stop for us \u2014 you get a nice view of the spit in the middle of the water and the mountains on the other side of Kachemak Bay.\nLand's End Resort at the end of the Homer Spit has a \"Getaway Package\" for as little as $139, which includes overnight accommodations for two and dinner for two at the restaurant.\nThe Homer Spit is one of my favorite beach walks. I've seen eagles, seals, otters and even a whale or two while strolling on the beach.\nThe view of Homer Spit and Kachemak Bay on a beautiful fall day. (Photo by Scott McMurren)\nYou also can head north from Anchorage for some fun getaways.\nAll of the big hotels around Talkeetna are closed for the winter. But right downtown on Main Street, the Talkeetna Roadhouse stays open all year. Stop in any day of the week for a delicious breakfast. Or \"non-breakfast,\" which is how innkeeper Trisha Costello categorizes all of the other menu offerings.\nEach weekend during the winter, the Roadhouse offers pie-making classes. For the $75 fee, you get an apron, a pie, some recipe cards and a couple of extra goodies to remind you of the class. Of course, you also get to make your own pie.\nIf you want to stay the night, the cost for a room is about $80 for two people. There are several different room types, though. If you don't want to drive up to Talkeetna, you can take the Alaska Railroad. The railroad's winter schedule lines up nicely with the class schedule. You can travel north on Saturday, arriving in time for your class. Then, the next day, ride the train back in the afternoon. Breakfast is not included in the package price of $265 per person. But you don't want to miss it!\nThe train ride doesn't end in Talkeetna, of course. You can ride the rails all the way to Fairbanks on the Aurora Train each Saturday. And Fairbanks already is in the middle of its aurora-viewing season. There are daytrips (well, \"night trips\") to take you away from the city lights so you can see the aurora borealis. Two companies, 1st Alaska Outdoor School and Northern Alaska Tour Company offer a variety of trips around Fairbanks for aurora-watchers.\nAnother popular option in Fairbanks is to pick up a car and drive out to Chena Hot Springs Resort. In addition to the hot springs, the resort has a yurt set up on top of a hill for aurora viewing.\nStarting Nov. 1, Borealis Basecamp will offer accommodations in private domes with clear roofs. That way, you'll be able to sleep under the moon, the stars or the northern lights. I haven't seen the domes yet, but the pictures are compelling. The domes are set up about 30 miles outside of Fairbanks.\nThe way the railroad's schedule is set up, it's difficult ride both ways. You'd end up spending the night in Fairbanks, then waking up early to take the southbound train back to Anchorage. And while I love the train, one 12-hour rail trip during a weekend is enough. Go ahead and fly back home on Ravn or Alaska Air!\nSo pick which direction you want to drive, and plan your next fall adventure right here in Alaska!",

        "raw_content": "AFSC condemns executive action\nSanctuaryNotWalls\n\"To end violence we need sanctuary, not walls\"\nToday, President Donald Trump announced sweeping executive actions\u202fthat target immigrants and perpetuate racist sentiment. The actions would\u202fexpand border enforcement including the wall, cut federal funding to sanctuary cities,\u202fincrease\u202fthe number of people Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will target for deportation, and expand immigrant detention. The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC)\u202f\u2013\u202fa Quaker organization that has worked for\u202fimmigrant and refugee rights for 100 years \u2013 denounces\u202fthese policies as dangerous and cruel.\nPresident Trump said today, \"When it comes to public safety there is no room for politics.\" We agree, and vehemently condemn attacks on the security of migrants, who have been the overwhelming victims of violence due in part to U.S. policies. This action is a conversion of the anti-immigrant bigotry that permeated the presidential campaign into government action and perpetuates the racist and false association of migrants with violence.\nThe executive order directs additional\u202ffederal money toward the construction of a wall along the border with Mexico, triples the number of immigration enforcement agents, and grows U.S. Customs and Border Protection staff by 5,000.\nWalls\u202falready stretch along much of\u202fthe U.S.\u202fsouthern border\u202fand have\u202fcontributed to the deaths of thousands of migrants fleeing poverty and violence that are forced to cross through deadly terrain. This is\u202fa\u202fhuman rights disaster that will only be exacerbated with more miles of border walls and excessive, unaccountable enforcement.\u202fIn San Diego and across the border region, we work with community partners to hold border agencies\u202faccountable for their actions.\nBorder enforcement has also caused the militarization of neighborhoods as far as 100 miles inland where Border Patrol agents can racially profile anyone to question them on their immigration status. Increasing border enforcement will increase the targeting of these vulnerable groups. Southern border communities should no longer bear the brunt of reckless and irresponsible policies.\nThe president\u2019s action on sanctuary cities would cut funding to cities, counties, and states that have chosen not to tear apart communities and families by collaborating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).\nDuring the past several years, more than 350 jurisdictions across the country have enacted policies that prohibit local officials from activities like asking people about their immigration status, holding people so ICE can detain them, or sharing information with ICE.\u202fPolice and other community members have pushed for these policies to protect themselves and their neighbors, and also because they realize it\u2019s crucial that everyone in the community, regardless of immigration status, trust local officials and service providers.\u202fCooperation with ICE is potentially unconstitutional and could open jurisdictions up to lawsuits.\nHowever, there is only so much the president can do on his own.\u202fAFSC is joining with many communities in engaging members of Congress to oppose increased funding for the border wall and enforcement and any legislation that would punish sanctuary cities.\nAFSC stands with all communities being targeted by state repression now and in the days ahead. We will continue to work for a world in which \u201cThat of God\u201d is recognized in everyone, and to uphold the basic principle that everyone should be treated with dignity, regardless of their immigration status or where they live.\nQuakers to Trump: Sanctuary, Not Walls",

        "title": "Georgia Drug Law: Your Student Was Arrested for Marijuana. What Now? \u2014 THE LAW OFFICE OF ALAN J. LEVINE",
        "raw_content": "While many states around the country are decriminalizing or even legalizing marijuana, Georgia is not one of those states. And, though the political climate is changing with respect to people\u2019s attitudes about marijuana, in my opinion, it will still be many years before Georgia sees either decriminalization or legalization.\nThe Drama Begins \u2013 But It Doesn\u2019t Have to be A Tragedy\nSo, let\u2019s consider a fairly straight forward scenario \u2013 one that parents don\u2019t want to think about \u2013 but that does happen. Your child is arrested for possessing marijuana. How did that happen? Maybe it was at a party that disturbed the neighbors, the police were called \u2013 and they had a joint in their shirt pocket. Maybe they were driving and, while texting or otherwise not paying attention, swerved out of their lane and drew the attention of a police officer \u2013 and they had marijuana in the car. Are there other ways that the arrest could occur? You bet. Let\u2019s never underestimate our kids ability to mess up. Royally.\nNow, you, the parent, had no idea your kid was experimenting with marijuana. You have a billion questions about why they\u2019re doing such a thing. Where did you go wrong? Did you go wrong? They\u2019re a good student, never been in trouble more than the usual kid-related stuff, go to church, volunteer at a food bank. And now they\u2019ve gone and done this! Now what happens to their plans to go to college? What about jobs? Is this arrest going to follow them around for the rest of their lives?\nThere is Light at the End of the Legal Tunnel\nThe good news is, in most cases, especially when your student has never been in trouble like this before, there are programs for having the charges dismissed. In Georgia, the prosecutors for the various districts throughout the state are authorized to have a Pretrial Intervention and Diversion Program. If your student qualifies \u2013 as based upon what they were arrested for and their criminal history \u2013 then by completing the terms of the program \u2013 not only will their charges be dropped, but they may have their criminal history restricted. This is what people often call \u2018expungement.\u2019\nHere in Cobb County where my office is located, first time drug possession offenses \u2013 even for felony amounts and for drugs besides marijuana \u2013 can be handled through our Diversion program. Not only do our Solicitor General and District Attorney offer Diversion, but so do many of the local municipalities. But, be aware \u2013 it is a lot of work \u2013 for your student. Often times there is substantial community service to complete, as well as getting a drug and alcohol evaluation and treatment if it is deemed appropriate. Shoplifting charges require attendance at a loss prevention class. There are administrative fees that can be substantial. These are just some of the things that may be required of your student. And, your student must be represented by an attorney to participate.\nWhat\u2019s the Attorney\u2019s Job in Diversion?\nWhen I represent a family\u2019s son or daughter that is Diversion eligible, I don\u2019t just have them fill out the application, get them accepted into the program, and then leave them to hopefully do what they\u2019re supposed to. There is some degree of hand-holding. That is not to say I or the family do the work for the student. Diversion is a good time to learn some hard lessons, take responsibility, and earn this second chance. But, a support network of people who care is still vital to success.\nAnd, I still examine the State\u2019s evidence. I still review the facts of the arrest, read the police reports, watch the videos, as well as review any other evidence that may be available. Just because your student was arrested doesn\u2019t mean they are in fact guilty. They may well be. But either way, knowing what the State is basing the charges upon is important to know.\nHow will Successful Completion of Diversion Help Your Student \u2013 and What Will It Not Do?\nWhen Diversion is completed, the charges are dismissed. And, here in Cobb County, their record is restricted. But while people often use the word \u2018expunge\u2019 to talk about this, I prefer the word restricted. Why? Because to me, expungement sounds like the arrest and everything that goes along with it has been erased from your student\u2019s criminal history. And maybe that is the way things should work. But it\u2019s not the way it does work.\nThe fact is, upon completion of Diversion, barring some other history, your student will be able to say truthfully they have never been convicted of a crime. But, they can\u2019t say they\u2019ve never been arrested. And even though their criminal history will appear clean to many, certain government agencies, law enforcement entities, and categories of employer, will be able to learn of the arrest. So, the fact is, some jobs may be off limits \u2013 at least for some time \u2013 even after Diversion. And, there is the complicating issue of private companies that may have collected information about the arrest and are now reporting it even after Diversion. That is something an experienced attorney can help you deal with as well.\nSo, Diversion is a really good option when appropriate and available. But, it is not a magic wand that makes mistakes go away entirely. There may still be complications with which your student has to deal. But, I have helped families and their students through this process and am happy to report that these young men and women have gone on to the college of their choice, landed good jobs, and have learned from their mistakes. For arrests, Diversion is the closest thing to a true second chance in Georgia.\nEven when Diversion is not available, don\u2019t give up hope. There are other things experienced criminal defense attorneys do to help their young clients deal with their issues so they can get their lives back.\nIf you have any other questions about Diversion in Georgia, or other criminal defense questions, please call us at 770-870-4994 or email alan@alanjlevine.com\nCopyright \u00a9 Alan J.

But the 17 and 40-year-old women are not sisters, they are housemates in a women\u2019s shelter in Kabul.\nThey are from different ethnic groups and provinces in Afghanistan but what makes them understand each other\u2019s often sad stares and angry outbursts is that they are both victims of sexual and physical abuse in a country that offers little legal protection for women and girls and is seeing violence against women increasing.\n\"Tell them about how well you bead those small purses,\" Mariam tells Najla, who is young enough to be her daughter. \"She\u2019s even learning how to cook.\" The women\u2019s names have been changed to protect their identities.\nNajla smiles and stares down at her hands, \"I\u2019m not very good, I'm just learning\" the 17-year-old whispers. The shelter is run by the Afghan Women Skills Development Center (AWSDC), an Afghan non-profit organization that operates two women\u2019s shelters in Afghanistan and educates Afghan communities on women\u2019s rights issues.\nNajla is in the AWSDC shelter because in early 2012 she ran away from her mother\u2019s house, after enduring years of sexual abuse by her stepfather. She was 14 then and went to live with her father but she didn\u2019t stay long because she says her stepmother beat her and didn\u2019t want her around.\n\"One day I left my father and stepmother\u2019s home and was waiting on the street to try to find a way to get back to my mother\u2019s house, that\u2019s when two police officers forced me into their car and raped me,\" said Najila with a quivering voice. \"Two other police officers then took me to the Ministry of Women\u2019s Affairs handed me to them because I was too young just to be left outside.\"\nNajla says that was one of the toughest moments of her life because she felt like she had nowhere to go, especially when she couldn\u2019t trust any of the people who were supposed to protect her.\n\"At that point my choices were to go to my mother\u2019s house and be raped by my stepfather, go to my father\u2019s house and be beaten by my stepmother or live on the street,\" she said.\nBut at the Ministry of Women\u2019s Affairs, the Afghan governmental department tasked to promote women\u2019s rights and advancement, Najla was told about the AWSDC\u2019s women\u2019s shelters.\n\"I had heard about the safe houses and was worried about what kind of place it would be, but I figured I didn\u2019t have any other choices,\" Najla said. \"Now I am grateful that this shelter is here.\"\nIn January there were 31 women in the AWSDC\u2019s Kabul shelters and according to shelter administrators about 400 women stayed in the shelters in 2013, more than in any other year.\nAWSDC\u2019s figures are in line with the increase in violence against women cases as reported by the Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission, a quasi-governmental body mandated to promote and protect the human rights of Afghans.\nAccording to researchers at the AIHRC\u2019s Women\u2019s Rights Division from March to September 2013, the first six months of the Afghan calendar year, 1179 women reported being victims of violence. This is a 15 percent increase in the same period in 2012.\nBut Fatana Quarishi, from AIHRC\u2019s Women\u2019s Rights Division, says the number of cases of violence against women is much higher than what is being reported to them and other governmental agencies.\n\"Many women come to us (AIHRC) or call us just to be able to tell someone about the violence they are facing but they don\u2019t want to file an official complaint because doing so would put them in more danger or even get them killed by their husbands or other family members,\" said Quarishi, who has worked for more than nine years as a researcher for the AIHRC.\nQuarishi says she is seeing an increase in reported cases of physical violence against women and economic violence, which she defines as a husband refusing to provide basic necessities like food and a home for his wife. Under Islamic and Afghan law this right is called nafaqah and although a man\u2019s failure to financial support his wife and children may result in a jail sentence for him, legal experts say prosecutions are rare.\nMore poverty, more violence\nQuarishi and women\u2019s rights activists say that there is a correlation between increasing poverty and unemployment in Afghanistan and more violence against women.\n\"When men can\u2019t find work because there aren\u2019t many jobs out there for them, they come home frustrated and angry because it is out of their control and they take out their anger on their wives or children,\" said Khorshid Noori, AWSDC\u2019s Deputy Director.\nNoori says poverty doesn\u2019t justify the violence but she sees the issue repeated in the cases of the women so many times that she can make the connection.\nShe says that when an Afghan women is kicked out of her house that is usually the beginning of a dangerous road for her.\nDespite the establishment of Family Response Units in some police precincts, women\u2019s rights experts say that when women go directly to the police to complain about violence, they are often advised to go back home or in some cases are at risk of being sexually assaulted by male police personnel.\n\"If women contact us first, we will help them file a police report and provide them with legal services. We have direct contact with most police precincts,\" said Sajia Begham, AWSDC\u2019s program director.\nShe says women\u2019s shelters are a critical resource for abused women and she disagrees with the claims some political and religious leaders make about shelters being places where women are encouraged to runaway from their homes and engage in extramarital affairs or sex before marriage, which are prohibited under Afghan and Islamic law.\n\"The women that come to us are victims, they are in pain both physically and mentally. They need help and should not be blamed for the violence they have endured,\" said Begham.\nShelters must be 'priority'\nExperts at the Afghan Women\u2019s Network and Women for Afghan Women, two leading women\u2019s rights organizations in Afghanistan, say support for women\u2019s shelters needs to be a priority for international aid agencies, especially as US and NATO forces draw down, foreign aid to Afghanistan lessens, and international attention on Afghan women\u2019s rights issues wane.\n\"We also worry about the Elimination of Violence Against Women law being repealed. Although it isn\u2019t being implemented as effectively as we would like, the law still gives women a legal case against many forms of violence,\" Sonia Aslami, the Afghan Women\u2019s Network Data Officer, told Al Jazeera.\nAslami says the EVAW law, which was enacted in 2009, has been useful for raising awareness about the many forms of violence against women but that more cases need to be prosecuted under the law for it to really have an effect on preventing violence.\n\"Women\u2019s rights is about giving women options and shelters offer women a safe place to go if it is too dangerous for them to stay in their homes,\" Shukria Khaliqi, program manager for Women for Afghan Women, a non governmental organization which operates ten women\u2019s shelters and offers legal services, told Al Jazeera.\nKhaliqi says that if women don\u2019t have access to shelters, they sometimes have to return to their parent\u2019s home.\n\"Because of a lack of education, job training, and family limits on women working outside of the home, these women can\u2019t earn an income and are dependent on male family members for their survival,\" said Khaliqi.\n40-year-old Mariam, who says her husband refuses to financially support her and beats her, has gone back and forth between her husband\u2019s home and her parent\u2019s home at least five times in the last six years.\nShe was married at 17 and has six children. Mariam says her parents are old and fragile.\n\"They don\u2019t have anything themselves so they can\u2019t help me either,\" Mariam who is working with the AWSDC\u2019s defense lawyers to get the family courts to grant her a divorce, told Al Jazeera.\nHer youngest son is six years old and lives with her at the shelter. She says that her husband claims that their youngest son is not his and that she committed adultery, which according to a recent draft of the new Afghan penal code could result in her being stoned to death.\n\"He wouldn\u2019t allow me to go to the doctor so how could I leave the house to have any relationship with another man. It\u2019s just an excuse for him not to worry about paying for food and clothes for me and my youngest son,\" said Mariam. Her other children are teenagers and still live with her husband.\nAt the shelter Mariam and the other women are learning how to run a home-based business making fruit preserves. Shelter administrators say the money the women make from the business is put away in the safe for them and when the women leave the shelter they are given the money they have earned to help support them.\nSome women stay a few weeks in the shelters and some longer than a year. Noori says all are offered psychological counseling, legal services, and opportunities to learn about Islam, their legal rights, and marriage.\n\"We have six women whose legal cases have been closed but they don\u2019t have anywhere to go, so they are in our long term shelter and are going to school,\" said Noori.\nOne of those women is Najla, who says she wants to finish school.\n\"I want to study law so I can defend women\u2019s rights like the women who work with us here [in the shelter],\" said Najla.",

        "raw_content": "Understanding embedded vision\nTraditionally, vision systems have relied on a PC. Equipped with a frame grabber or interface card to import camera images, they use software to analyze these images and relay the information to another part of the system.\nAlthough they offer good performance, PC-based vision systems can be bulky and complex. Plus, integrating them into existing systems or manufacturing processes often proves tricky given the number of interfaces involved.\nIn contrast, embedded vision systems comprise an independent computer system that, by virtue of its compact dimensions, can be integrated directly into a larger mechanical or electrical system. With everything on board, a PC is not required. As a rule, embedded vision systems are also easier to use and integrate than their computer-based counterparts. Lower purchase costs, fewer moving parts and minimal maintenance also make them attractive options.\nBut until recently, embedded systems have not been able to match the performance provided by PC-based systems. Consequently, the range of applications they could be used for has been restricted to those that do not require fast high-quality image processing. However, a new generation of embedded vision technology designed to meet a wide range of application requirements is changing this. This development has been made possible by the emergence of high-performance, low-cost, energy-efficient processors.\nEmbedded vision systems have been most commonly found in mobile devices. But thanks to the new technology, the possible uses for embedded vision are almost infinite. In the short to mid term, embedded vision technology will be found almost everywhere \u2013 from ubiquitous everyday devices to heavily automated smart factories.\nEmbedded vision \u2013 endless applications\nCombining small dimensions with powerful processing, embedded vision systems are suited to an extremely diverse range of industrial applications. These include everything from self-driving vehicles and driver assistance systems through drones, retail, security, biometrics, medical imaging, and augmented reality to robots and networked objects. The list is endless. Nevertheless, perhaps one of the most interesting areas of application is factory automation. Referred to as machine vision in this context, here embedded vision offers huge potential as a driver to the smart factory revolution. Machine vision applications include:\ncar and vehicle component manufacturing\nchemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing and processing\npackaging, including packaging and processing solutions\nelectronics manufacturing and assembly\nMachine vision \u2013 setting the new industry standard\nTraditionally, a machine vision setup comprises a camera, a PC, and a cable linking the camera to the PC. It uses plug-and-play components via a standard interface and standard protocols. Its reliance on standard operating systems and interface protocols means software can easily be created using commercial image processing libraries.\nAn embedded machine vision system, by contrast, comprises a camera without a housing (known as a board-level camera) connected to a processing board (also known as an embedded board) via an inexpensive connector. These components are combined into one device. Dispensing with the need for a PC altogether, images relayed from the camera are processed on the system\u2019s processing board.\nWhy Allied Vision?\nBecause Allied Vision is a leading manufacturer of high-quality cameras for machine vision applications with 25 years of experience. Allied Vision cameras are built specifically to meet the requirements of demanding industrial environments and will withstand vibrations, shock, heat, and constant use. Thanks to their high standard of quality, they are regularly found in the automobile and pharmacy industries as part of production-line assembly and quality control systems as well as in scientific and medical devices.\nAllied Vision possesses a long and distinguished track record in custom camera designs and modular platforms. And, for example, introduced board-level cameras to the machine vision market many years ago. Allied Vision\u2019s embedded cameras represent a natural development of this and have been purposely designed to meet the needs of embedded vision system designers while delivering the high quality and performance that is standard in the machine vision industry.",

        "raw_content": "House fire damages bedroom\nA woman suffered a minor burn on her hand and a deputy from the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office was examined for smoke inhalation in connection with a two-alarm house fire Thursday afternoon, Dec. 1, at 214 Eleanor Drive in Woodside.\nMedics took both victims to a hospital as a precautionary measure, Chief Dan Ghiorso of the Woodside Fire Protection District said in a telephone interview. The burn, on the woman's hand, was \"not very serious at all,\" he said.\nThe fire in the one-story house probably started in the power supply of a 10-year-old track lighting system that had been properly installed in the bedroom, district Fire Marshal Denise Enea said in a telephone interview. The power supply may have shorted out or overheated, she said.\nThis fire was a particularly difficult one in that firefighters had to pull hoses around to the back of the house, Ms. Enea said. \"The fire fully engaged the bedroom,\" she said. \"The firefighters did an amazing stop on this fire. In a matter of minutes, this fire would have spread to the rest of the house.\"\nThe bedroom and nearby bathroom are now unusable, with damage estimated at $75,000 to the structure and contents, she said. A hallway has some smoke damage and minor water damage.\nThe contents of the bedroom included much that became fuel, including a mattress, bed, dresser, computer, TV and many CDs, Ms. Enea said. Plastics are particularly susceptible to releasing highly combustible gases when they burn, she said. The explosion-like ignition of those gases is what can dramatically and instantaneously expand a fire.\nWhat stood between a contained fire and a full-on house fire was a thin bedroom door that, being closed, denied the fire the ventilation it would have needed to spread, Ms. Enea said.\nBattalion chiefs called for a second alarm in view of the medical evacuations, but the extra equipment turned out to be unnecessary to extinguish the fire, Chief Ghiorso said. The fire was all but out in about 12 minutes, he said.\nThe agencies participating included one unit from Woodside -- the district was also engaged in an incident on Skyline Boulevard, the chief said -- and Redwood City, Menlo Park, San Carlos and the Sky Londa station of the state Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.\nAt one point, three firefighters were up on the flat roof and removed one skylight for access and ventilation.\nThe fire did not damage vegetation and presented no danger of spreading beyond the house, Chief Ghiorso said.",

        "raw_content": "Nigeria: Man dragged to the gallows will now be executed by firing squad\nA death row prisoner in Nigeria is due to be executed by firing squad later this week after prison authorities dragged him to the gallows where they hanged four other men on Monday night, Amnesty International has learned. They were the first known executions in the country since 2006.Benin Prison authorities in Edo state had planned to hang the man along with the four others, but halted his execution after they realized his death sentence, imposed by a military tribunal, required that a firing squad carry it out.Amnesty International understands that neither the prisoners nor their families were told of the executions in advance. Secret executions, where prisoners, families and lawyers are not informed beforehand, violate international standards on the use of the death penalty.\u201cCruel and inhumane do not even begin to describe the nightmare situation facing this man \u2013 and it points to the spectacularly brutal nature of Nigeria\u2019s sudden return to state-sponsored killing,\u201d said Lucy Freeman, deputy Africa director at Amnesty International. \u201cThe resumption of executions in Nigeria is deplorable and extremely worrying. Edo state authorities have already executed four men this week and still plan to execute a fifth \u2013 the Nigerian authorities must immediately halt all executions and return to the moratorium on the death penalty that was previously in place.\u201dThe four men hanged at Benin Prison last night still had appeals pending in their cases. Their executions came only hours after a federal High Court had dismissed a lawsuit against three of the execution warrants. The Edo state Attorney General and the prison authorities ignored an appeal and application for stay of execution filed immediately after the judgement. By executing the prisoners, Nigeria has demonstrated a gross disregard for the rule of law and respect for the judicial process.The fifth man, sentenced by military tribunal, was never able to appeal his original sentence because military tribunals at the time denied defendants the right to appeal \u2013 itself a violation of fair trial standards and international law. Under Nigerian and international law, executions may not be carried out while any appeals are still pending. \u201cAuthorities at Benin Prison simply disregarded the due process requirements under law and in a cold-blooded move they denied the inmates an opportunity to exercise their rights,\u201d said Freeman.The fifth man who is to face a firing squad has been on death row for 17 years, and was sentenced to death by a military tribunal during the military rule in Nigeria before the return to democracy in 1999. Amnesty International has raised serious doubts about the fairness of trials during that period. Of the more than 1,000 people currently on death row in the country, scores of others were also sentenced by military tribunals before 1999.\u201cThat Nigeria has resumed executions for sentences passed by military tribunals only amplifies the disregard for human rights,\u201d said Freeman.\u201cAt a time when West Africa and the world are moving away from the death penalty, it is very worrying that Nigeria\u2019s President Goodluck Jonathan defies the clear international trend and has instead encouraged a step backwards for human rights.\u201dEarlier this month, President Jonathan urged state Governors to sign death warrants for death row prisoners \u2013 which in effect allows federal prison authorities to proceed with executions of inmates who are held at state prisons. The Edo state Governor had signed execution warrants last October for two of the four men executed on Monday. Amnesty International opposes the death penalty in all cases without exception, regardless of the nature or circumstances of the crime, or the individual\u2019s guilt or innocence because it is a violation of the right to life and the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment.",

You can find here some information on my past and current academic activities. Until recently, I was the subject reviewer in archaeology for Intute at the University of Oxford. I am currently involved in field projects in Italy (with prof. Robert H. Tykot, University of South Florida), focusing on prehistoric material evidence, including lithics and metals. A further project is active in England.\nI have organized a session at the 2017 EAA annual meeting in Maastricht, \"Present identities from the past: providing a meaning to modern communities\" and co-organising another one: \"Applications using Hand-Held Portable X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometers\". The call for papers is OPEN, please submit your proposals.\nMany papers and drafts are available on this website, please check the relevant sections, \"Conferences\" and \"Publications\". Students and colleagues are welcome to contact me requesting any particular paper not available in the public website. More papers are available in my Researchgate page.\nCheck out also my page at Amazon. Please note, I do not favour any particular bookshop or market seller. My books can be purchased in most bookshops, online and on the high streets.\nI maintain an updated version of the Gazetteer, originally published in Late Bronze Age Mycenaean and Italic Products in the West Mediterranean.

ISBN 9781784911782.\nTable of contents (PDF from Archaeopress)\nReviewed in: International Journal of Nautical Archaeology by Colin Martin.\nThe first 34 pages are devoted to an \u2018Introduction\u2019 and two scene-setting essays (by) Andrea Vianello. His philosophy and approach are non-prescriptive, emphasizing the dichotomy between the physical attributes of riverine environments and the varied and not always logical responses of human societies to them. (...) Slick generalizations and explanatory theories are notably absent; in their place are factual observations, questions and paradoxes. This combination of papers does not constitute a text book, but it is a good foundation for debate and progress in this neglected field. (...) The volume as a whole carries an important message. Like the sea and things nautical, rivers and lakes have for too long been \u2018elephants in the rooms\u2019 of archaeologists and historians, so obvious that they are effectively invisible. Andrea Vianello and his fellow authors have revealed them as essential elements in holistic landscape studies, without which life could not function. It is up to others to follow their example. (...) An excellent book. Some of the illustrations are outstanding, especially of the Yangtze and of Arab marshlands.\nCheck out also the recent presentation in Barcelona.",

        "raw_content": "Event summary: Chinese Consumers and their impact on the Asia Pacific\nChinese Consumers: Impact on the Asia Pacific\nOn Wednesday 21 Oct 2015, ANZ Chief Economist, Mr Warren Hogan, delivered an enlightening presentation about Chinese consumer trends and the significance of China\u2019s economic development in the Asia-Pacific region. In particular, Mr Hogan focused on the opportunities and risks to Australian and New Zealand businesses if seeking to do business in China in the near future.\nHere are the key messages we took away from the presentation.\nChina\u2019s private consumption is currently 38% of GDP, which is much lower compared to most of the world\u2019s economies where consumption is around 50-70% of GDP. Thus, solely based on statistics China does not seem like an attractive market. The power of the Chinese market lies in its potential for long-term growth.\nThe growth in affluent and middle-class Chinese consumers has created one of the largest markets for luxury goods in the worls. Chinese tourism spending hit a record high in 2014.\nChinese Government initiatives such as reforms to pension and medical insurance are also increasing consumer confidence in spending. These social safety nets contribute to an increase in household wealth and improved financial infrastructure.\nUrban middle class spending is estimated to double over the next 15 years. Similarly, as business ties with China deepen, Australia\u2019s exports to the country, both in goods and services, are forecast to almost double by the year 2030. The opportunities for Australia include education, tourism and services.\nAs China undergoes its evolution, affluent cities like Shanghai are expected to follow Hong Kong\u2019s pattern of higher expenditure on personal items such as electronics, jewellery, leisure activities and education in the future.\nMr Warren Hogan was appointed Chief Economist in 2010. He is responsible for ANZ Research, the Bank\u2019s economics, commodities and financial markets research capability.\n07 Apr 2017 7:52 PM | Johnd99\nrequirements.

(AP) \u2014 A Montana man shot and killed his wife and three children, set a fire in the family's remote cabin and then killed himself, officials in Anaconda-Deer Lodge County said.\nThe shootings happened Sunday morning at a one-room log cabin where the family lived in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest about 15 miles southeast of the town of Deer Lodge, Police Chief Tim Barkell said.\nBarkell was withholding the names of the victims and the shooter until relatives could be notified.\nDetective Steve Barclay said an investigation determined the man shot his wife and 1-year-old child inside, then went outside and shot two other children \u2014 ages 4 and 6. He carried the bodies of the children inside and laid them down on a bed in the cabin, Barclay said.\nHe apparently set fire to a chair and then shot himself. The fire was contained within the cabin, Barkell said.\nCoroner Jerry Thomas said the man was 59 and his wife was 37.\nThe shooter called a friend in Deer Lodge at about 10 a.m. Sunday and \"said he killed his wife and kids and now he was going to set the place on fire,\" Assistant Police Chief Bill Sather said Monday.\nThe friend called 911.\nAuthorities responded from another nearby town, Anaconda, and it took them a while to find the cabin where the family lived, Barkell said. They then had to wait for firefighters to arrive.\nBarclay said officers had not determined a motive for the shootings and officials hadn't had a chance to fully interview the friend who made the 911 call.\nThe family had lived in the cabin full time for a couple of years, but had moved to Montana from out of state. Barclay was not sure where they were originally from.\nBarkell said he knew nothing about the family and the shootings were the \"first dealings we've ever had with them.\"\nThree semitrailers were parked on the property near the cabin, and tents and tools were scattered around. A horse belonging to someone else was in a pen at the back of the property. The owner planned to pick it up later, Barclay said.\nThomas transported the bodies to the state crime lab in Missoula on Sunday afternoon. All five had been shot with a handgun, Barkell said.",

Wool-on-cotton rugs from this remote desert region are often characterised by a blend of Persian and Chinese motifs, a testament to this crossroads of civilizations.\nThis rug features a triple-medallion design that, with many variations, is common in carpet designs from East Turkestan and Tibet, set against a rich red-orange background.

        "raw_content": "I don't know if I'm ace (nsfw-ish?)\nBy figuringmyselfout, November 28, 2018 in The Gray Area, Sex and Related Discussions\nfiguringmyselfout\nA/Sexuality:Heteromantic demisexual\nA few weeks ago, I joined this site because I found that I related to some of the topics and things that I had heard other a-spec individuals talk about. I knew that I was heteromantic, but I was unsure if I was demi or gray sexual. I talked with other people here and decided that I was demisexual (I didn't even come to the realization that I was on the ace spectrum until it was brought to my attention that needing to have a romantic attraction before sexual attraction was not exactly common). I was fine. I thought I had myself figured out; a heteromantic demisexual who could continue with her schooling and social life without questioning her sexuality anymore. Cool, right?\nI actually didn't figure it all out.\nI went home for Thanksgiving break over the last week and realized some things. I can recognize when someone is trying to be sexual but I don't feel sexual attraction or arousal by that. I've...experimented by myself...but I'm not imagining myself in any sexual situations. It just feels good. That's the only reason why I do it at all. In the same way that I know someone is trying to be sexually appealing, I sometimes understand and can see when someone my age looks 'nice' or 'attractive'. Yet I'm not thinking of them in that way. I'm more focused on who they are as a person. The thoughts that run through my head are \"is he smart? is he funny? is he a complete jerk to others?\". I'm not drawn to him because of how he looks. I'm looking for how his heart is. In the same way, sometimes I don't realize a guy looks nice until someone points it out fjahfkjldsf\nOn the same token, I do have a tendency to develop feelings for guys that have honest hearts and care for others (bonus if he's smart!!!!). I don't want to do anything with him, but I'm certainly trying to spend more time with him and show I care for him as a person.\nWhile home, I was watching a movie with my mom. It was really good and it showcases a couple trying to deal with the passing of their little boy. Well, in an act of forgiveness and love, the ex-wife and husband started to intensely make out. I'm talking...intense. Like it was an implied s*x scene. I couldn't watch it. I just felt so badly awkward and weird. It made logical sense for the scene to be there, they had finally forgiven each other and were back to being a husband and wife. I just didn't like how I felt. I couldn't watch it, I felt weird in a bad way, I can't explain it. I just know that I didn't like it. And I'm a freaking adult, I'm almost 21 for goodness' sake!\nWhat's my point? I don't really know if I'll ever want sex. Like I always thought that if I were romantically invested in a man and we talked about it, I might be receptive to the idea. But I don't know now. I just don't know if I can imagine myself in a situation like that, even if we were both in love and emotionally invested in each other. I make dirty jokes all the time, yet I can't actually put myself in that situation. I know I'm not lesbian or bi, I've only ever been interested in guys and can't see myself with another girl. So what the heck am I? Even with all these feelings, I still want to have kids one day. What the heck brain??\nI know labels aren't necessary, but I feel so abnormal. I feel alone and I want to just know what and who I am. Having some sort of word for how I feel helps (emotions are hard, after all, and I do good as it is to identify why I feel certain ways).\nAny ideas about what I may be describing? I'm at a loss. Am I even still on the ace spectrum?\nBecause you say that you don't want sex with anyone and don't know if you ever will, it sounds to me like you could be ace.\nThere are other types of attraction beyond Sexual and Romantic Attraction.\nYou might find this often posted image helpful, as it explains some important ones,\nAcebooklove\nHamster obsessed neighborhood lady\nLocation:At home, cuddling with my ham\nA/Sexuality:Asexual homoromantic\n23 minutes ago, figuringmyselfout said:\nWhat's my point?

What the heck brain??\nIm new to all of this, firstly welcome!\nSecond, you do sound ace to me, although a lot of people have different meanings of what being ace means, ace people as far as I know can have a desire for having kids, so there\u00b4s nothing wrong with that.\nI\u00b4m in the same position as you are right now, I can make dirty jokes, etc, but since at least 2 years I don\u00b4t really like the idea of sex or thinking about it. I went on a couple of dates, all which I turned down after I thought they went to far ( trying to kiss me, touch me, etc) I am sex repulsed and while talking about sex doesn\u00b4t bother me, I absolutely hate it when the conversation turns into questions about my sex life for instance.\nI hope you find answers in here, welcome.\n1 hour ago, MichaelTannock said:\nThank you for this, this is really helpful! I have trouble sometimes with the different terms and types of attraction (I'm still new to all of this), I'll be sure to hang onto this\n2 hours ago, TheAP said:\n1 hour ago, Acebooklove said:\nThank you both of you, that helps clear things up some. I definitely don't want anything, the very idea makes me uncomfortable.\nAlso @Acebooklove SAME??? Like I can spout off some off-hand 'that's what she said', but once it comes to actually thinking about doing those things? That's a big nope for me. Like I try not to think about other people doing the do as it is, so let's NOT put me in that scenario, please?? I sometimes think cuddles would be nice, and I certainly wouldn't mind a kiss on the cheek, but anything more? BIG. NOPE.\nWelcome to you too!\ud83c\udf70\ud83c\udf70\ud83c\udf70\n6 minutes ago, figuringmyselfout said:\nHahaha, yeah. I definitely get you in regards to that matter, and I know!\nPlease and thank you, don\u00b4t put us in there\ud83d\ude05.\nCuddles sound nice, but it\u00b4s still something I would debate on doing. In regards to kisses in the cheek, I absolutely hate them lol, I\u00b4m glad you can put up with it, where I live people say hi all the time with a kiss and I just have to pretend Im not bothered, when in reality I always ask myself: WHY? Specially if its people I don\u00b4t know! I can barely let my friends kiss me goodbye lol.\n4 minutes ago, Acebooklove said:\nSee, here's the problem though about cheek kisses...I've never exactly had one from a partner. I have yet to have a romantic relationship that led into physical territory, but I have this feeling that a goodbye kiss from someone I'm dating would be nice (we don't give kisses where I am in the US, but I always melt a little when my youngest sister gives me a goodbye kiss when I leave!).\nCuddles are iffy too, I'm more of a 'throw your arm over me while we watch a movie' girl, but I haven't done much more than that. I don't blame you for not wanting too much physical contact, I get it! Somedays I can't even do hugs, they just mess with me and I can't do them.\nWell, if you ever want to be in a relationship that leads into physical territory I\u00b4m sure you will find out! I really don\u00b4t like saying \"when you have one\" because at least for me it\u00b4s like a \"you must\" you know? Perhaps it is nice, after all, it will be someone you know, and not just casually say hi to because your friends are friends with them!\ud83d\ude06 Kisses from family are nice though.\nI get it as well, hugs can sometimes be overwhelming. I just do hugs with my really good friends so yeah, its completely fine\ud83d\ude05\nAspieAlly613\nA/Sexuality:Demiromantic Heterosexual\nUnfortunately, I don't think there's a good way to predict how you would feel towards a romantic partner if you still haven't felt romance yet.\nI understand your concerns about accidentally leading a guy on \"Yeah, that thing that may be your main motivation for dating me...that's NEVER going to happen.\" Nobody wants to deceive a romantic partner; people care so much for their partners that to hurt one's partner is to hurt oneself, at least a little. You have some unanswered questions about how your mind works. That's okay. It's also okay to express the fact that those questions are unanswered. I can't give good advice on when/how it would be appropriate to tell your future boyfriend about this;it would depend on his personality and the culture surrounding you. Some people would need to be told \"Just because I'm not interested in this level of physical contact with you doesn't mean I'm not interested in you.\" Others wouldn't even make the assumption to begin with.\nA lot of people dont want sex based on looks. I cant look at someone and think sex. I have to know someone for over a year to even want a hug or kiss, usually.\nUntil I met my spouse I wasnt interested in anything sexual, period. Now I am. I still dont want to see it from other people on TV or anything though and fantasy with anyone but my partner ? Ew. Took me 30 years to find someone I wanted that way.\nSo... you still might be demi. You might be ace. You might be sexual. Up to you to decide what fits.\nOn 11/28/2018 at 1:00 AM, figuringmyselfout said:\nuntil it was brought to my attention that needing to have a romantic attraction before sexual attraction was not exactly common\nWell, it's not exactly uncommon either, even among sexuals. Which does not mean that I question your labels. I just find this particular trait inconclusive\nWhile home, I was watching a movie with my mom. [...] an implied s*x scene. I couldn't watch it. I just felt so badly awkward and weird.\nMany people would find it awkward to watch that kind of scene with a parent. Would you have felt the same if you had watched that movie alone?\nI don't really know if I'll ever want sex. [...] I just don't know if I can imagine myself in a situation like that,\nDon't try to imagine yourself in a situation like that, it's pointless. Being there is totally different from what you can see, hear, or read about it. The visuals hardly matter, whereas the touch becomes dominant. Basically the opposite of video recordings.\nIf you meet someone who makes you want to go there, then give it a try. Until then, don't bother. Just be frank to potential partners about having no intention of going there.\nI know labels aren't necessary, but I feel so abnormal. I feel alone and I want to just know what and who I am.\ufeff Having some sort of word for how I feel helps (emotions are hard, after all, and I do good as it is to identify w\ufeffhy I feel certain ways).\nYou're not alone, believe me. You're a little out of mainstream, like most folks around here. I vividly remember the feeling of comfort that I experienced when discovering the term \"demisexuality\". But finding a label is not an end, it's just one step on the path of discovering and accepting yourself. In my case, I've since moved on to the less specific \"dark gray\".\nWhat you describe sounds very much like you're on the spectrum, either gray or ace. Where exactly is for you to find out. It's a journey, not a quizz that will be solved after the next commercial.\nI wish you all the best on the road, and I hope you'll hang around here, where you can help to guide others as well.

Airport Director Rick Atkinson said it would cost as much to leave the lights burning during the overnight shift for one month as it would to pay for the $13,400 remote-control system. Currently, air traffic controllers activate the lights as aircraft approach the airport.\nThe remote-control system is used at a number of airports that lack post-midnight air traffic controllers, including the airport serving Grand Rapids, Mich., which handles nearly three times the passenger volume that Yeager does.\nThe Federal Aviation Administration\u2019s controller staffing cuts are expected to begin on April 7, but Atkinson said there has been recent speculation that airports with a military presence \u2014 such as the 130th Airlift Wing stationed at Yeager \u2014 might be spared.\n\u201cBut even if we are spared from overnight closing, this equipment will be good to have as a backup system,\u201d Atkinson said, adding that the cost of the remote-control system is expected to be reimbursed by a future FAA Airport Improvement Program grant.\nYeager averages only a few nightly landings of general-aviation aircraft between midnight and 5 a.m. No commercial flights are scheduled during that time.",

        "raw_content": "The women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s suffrage movement was a long and arduous battle in which many women and even some men fought for nearly their entire adult lives. Luckily, at that time, the women of the Pacific Northwest resided in an area far more progressive than it was in other parts of the country, and therefore those who lived in Washington were granted the right to vote much earlier than women in the more easterly states. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The West and Northwest became identified as places where one could innovate more readily\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (2). But reform was not so easily achieved. Many long hours were spent campaigning and petitioning by politically- minded individuals paid to achieve women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s suffrage and ordinary citizens ...view middle of the document...\nNonetheless, campaigning continued on fervently for over fifty years, until finally women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s suffrage was officially added to the United States Constitution as the 19th Amendment in 1920.\nThe women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s suffrage movement was set in motion primarily by Susan B. Anthony and Abigail Scott Duniway, who aided in forming the Washington Women Suffrage Association in 1871. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Due to the group's constant protesting and pushing, full voting rights were given to women in 1883 by a bill that passed through the Territorial Legislature\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (1). This law applied to both white women and also women of color. Disappointingly, this law was to be reversed by the Supreme Court in 1887 in the case of Harland v. Washington. The documented reason for the legislation being overturned was that the Supreme Court found it to be \"unconstitutionally vague\".\nYet another measure was approved by legislature in 1888 entitled \"An Act to Enfranchise Women\" which was also voided by the Territorial Supreme Court.\nIt is speculated that these invalidations to elected reform by the U.S. government are directly related to the fact that by large, women were voting against any and all liquor sales at that time. Lobbyists had numerous financial supporters, and many of them in positions of power. These parties undoubtedly sought to ensure that the production of their liquors would continue to create copious amounts of revenue. Washington state's liquor lobby battled fiercely to remove women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s voting rights throughout the late 1800\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs and into the early 1900\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs.\nIn 1889, Washington achieves statehood. Even so, male Washington voters defeat the suffrage referendum by 2-1 margin. Again in 1898, the second suffrage referendum campaign was defeated. With consideration to the struggle of women, including an incredible amount of resistance, some activists did at last begin to acknowledge the contributions of women as a force of labor to the community. Finally, in 1910, the Washington State Constitution was permanently amended to grant women the right to vote which made Washington the fifth suffrage state in America. It would be ten years before the rest of the country's women would be granted this right.\nRepublican Emma Smith DeVoe was a fundamental and integral part of the Washington state women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s suffrage movement. Through her efforts, she became the President of the Washington Equal Suffrage Association and also the Washington state organizer for NAWSA. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Well-known eastern suffragist Susan B. Anthony recognized her attractive appearance, singing voice and talent as an organizer and her \u00e2\u20ac\u0153feminine\u00e2\u20ac\u009d political style\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (3). Born in 1848 into a family of abolitionists, DeVoe was afforded a high-quality education while growing up in her hometown of Roseville, Illinois. But DeVoe had a great deal of passion and determination that would lead her far from home, and take her all the way to the yet largely untamed region of the West known as Washington state.\nShe first began...\nOther Papers Like Women's Suffrage Movement: Pacific Nw History\nAP-Suffrage In England Essay\nWomes Rights\n753 words - 4 pages movements took lessons from those in other countries.

        "raw_content": "Interview with Ayesha Khanna\nThe Business Times | Oct 30 2015 By Helmi Yusof\nAYESHA Khanna is the CEO and co-founder of The Keys Academy, an enrichment firm which provides secondary school students the opportunity to apply their problem-solving skills to real-life business challenges faced by leading companies. She has been published and quoted in The New York Times, Newsweek, Forbes and, of course, The Business Times.\nAt the Singapore Writers Festival this Saturday, Mrs Khanna will be speaking on a panel on \"The Future Of Work\", together with social entrepreneur and Nominated Member of Parliament Kuik Shiao-Yin as well as Future-Moves Group CEO Devadas Krishnadas. Mrs Khanna, who has an economics degree from Harvard University and a masters of science in operations research from Columbia University, says: \"Within a decade, the idea of a dedicated desk with a computer on it will be considered quirky and quaint. People increasingly want flexibility in working hours and place of work, and young entrants to the labour market are willing to exchange full-time employment for less-rigid freelancer arrangements. Complementing the trend is the rise of coworking places. In Singapore, spaces like Working Capital and The Hub are providing not only the space but also the culture of freelancer communities.\"\nMrs Khanna thinks there are several factors changing work as we know it: \"Silicon Valley venture capitalist Marc Andreessen famously wrote that 'software is eating the world', referring to how almost every industry from medicine to law increasingly depends on software. Governments are rushing to upskill workers in computer programming. Computer science classes became mandatory in the UK last year for children between five and 16 years old. Singapore is introducing coding and robotics in schools.\n\"Second, the automation of work and the displacement of jobs as a result. According to a 2013 report by Oxford University, computers and robots will take over 47 per cent of today's jobs, including white-collar work like accountancy and legal work. Employability will shift from those who know technology to those who are entrepreneurial and can work creatively with technology.\n\"Third, the digitisation of education and the competition from the developing world. Students from countries like Brazil, India, China and Bangladesh now have unprecedented access to high-quality education through free online platforms like EdX, which offers free courses by Ivy League universities like Harvard. The democratisation of education means that the 'elite advantage' of students from countries like Singapore and England is forever gone.\"\nMrs Khanna says to prepare for the future, Singapore must bring the workplace to academia and forge more partnerships between companies and schools, universities and vocational institutions - all of which are steps being taken as part of the government's SkillsFuture programme. She describes the future worker as a \"tech-literate, creative thinker adept at cross-cultural collaboration\".\nThe future worker, according to Mrs Khanna, is a \"tech-literate, creative thinker adept at cross-cultural collaboration\".\nWork hours will also change as \"tracking work hours will not be as important as achieving measurable results. Take strategy consulting - if a business needed management consulting advice, it would have to employ very expensive firms like McKinsey which hired business school graduates from schools like Harvard and Stanford. Today, companies that want strategic advice can have Harvard MBA grads directly on a project basis from online marketplaces like HourlyNerd and MBA&Co. The same is true of other skilled professionals - designers who can be hired on the marketplace Dribbble, software engineers on TopTal, or lawyers on UpCounsel.\"\nMrs Khanna predicts that the hot industries of the future will be advanced manufacturing or 3D printing, infrastructure for smart cities, robotics and machine intelligence, the sharing economy and marketplaces, logistics (aviation, rail, transportation), bioengineering, nanotechnology and materials science.\n\"The Future Of Work\" panel discussion Oct 31, 11.30am to 12.30pm, National Gallery, Auditorium.\nNewer PostInterview with FranceTV: The secrets of Singapore's success\nOlder PostCan \u2018externships\u2019 prepare students for the workplace of the future?",

We asked attendees with Crohn\u2019s disease to complete a questionnaire. Details of the participants:\nTotal attending lectures: Vancouver 230, Kelowna 90\nTotal respondents: 76: 51 from the February 2, 2005 lecture in Vancouver and 25 from the February 24, 2005 lecture in Kelowna.\nAverage age at diagnosis: 33\nAverage years with disease: 10.5 years\nSelf-Perception versus Objective Measurements\nWe asked people to tell us about their experiences with Crohn\u2019s disease and then linked this to the level of control they felt they had over the disease by their response to the following survey question: \u201cOn a scale of 1 to 10, rate the level of control you feel you have over your Crohn\u2019s disease: (Where \u2018no control\u2019 = 1 and \u2018complete control\u2019 = 10)\u201d.\nOur results showed that although 89% of patients had active disease, their self-perceived ranking of control was 6. 78% of patients had more than 3 bowel movements per day and their average self-perceived ranking of control was 6. 72% of patients experienced abdominal pain more than a few times a day and their average self-perceived ranking of control was 5.\nThe experience of Crohn\u2019s disease varies on a patient-by-patient basis. Some people may experience very little disease or symptom activity while others require frequent hospital stays.\nPatients surveyed missed an average of 35.1 days from work in the past year, missed 13.5 days of social/family time, had at least one visit to the hospital emergency room, and were hospitalized an average of 2.9 days.\nIt is up to you and your physician to decide what is normal for you. With the continued development of new medications, it will be important in the coming years for Crohn\u2019s disease patients to educate themselves on the risks and benefits of new treatment strategies. This might help shift what is an acceptable \u201cnormal\u201d or \u201ccontrol\u201d to a more comfortable level.\nAt the Gi Society, we are committed to keeping you informed about new developments in the treatment of Crohn\u2019s disease. Subscribing to the GI Society\u2019s newsletter, The Inside Tract\u00ae, is one step in the journey towards taking control of your disease.\nA striking gap in this patient survey was the fact that 69% of respondents who were taking corticosteroids had never undergone a bone density test. 20% of the respondents were on steroids for longer than 4 months. The average for all respondents was 5 months. In view of the high correlation between corticosteroid usage and osteoporosis, patients taking these medications are encouraged to discuss their bone health with their doctors.\nTwenty percent of patients surveyed were current smokers. Research shows that current and former smokers have a higher risk of developing Crohn\u2019s disease than non-smokers do. Among people with the disease, smoking is associated with a higher rate of relapse, repeat surgery, and immunosuppressive treatment. In all areas, whether current or former smokers, the risk is greater for women than for men.\nKeeping a Daily Diary\nOnly 5% of patients surveyed used a daily diary. It might benefit patients to keep a daily diary showing the range of experiences with stomach/abdominal cramping and stool consistency. The diary also serves as a record of times when work or a social function is missed due to symptoms of the disease, or when a visit to the emergency room or a hospital stay is required. Many people find it difficult to remember this kind of information over time. Since doctors look for patterns in disease activity when evaluating a patient, the daily diary could prove to be a useful tool. In addition, if symptoms progressively worsen, then you could alert your physician sooner, who could then provide intervening care that might potentially avoid a trip to the hospital emergency room.\nTaking control of Crohn\u2019s disease for you could be as simple as making entries in a daily diary of your symptoms and taking this information to your next visit with your doctor.\nA sample completed diary is shown here:\nOur survey showed that people with Crohn\u2019s disease were on an array of medications, and some were on more than one. This included 71% on 5-ASA, 47% on corticosteroids, 32% on immunosuppressants, 9% on biologics, with 14% of the people also taking other medications to manage the disease.\nThe more you get involved in understanding Crohn\u2019s disease, the more you may eventually improve what you define as normal. Keep in mind that The GI Society has printed information on Crohn\u2019s disease, holds public forums from time to time, and offers support groups for persons with this disease.",

For them, the physical act of pilgrimage has served as an expression of their devotion and an outward representation of the spiritual journey on which they have embarked. Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00eds too undertake pilgrimage, and each year thousands of Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00eds take the opportunity to forge a profound and lasting connection with the spiritual and administrative centre of their Faith, located in the Haifa-\u2018Akk\u00e1 area of what is now northern Israel.\nDuring the years of Bah\u00e1\u2019u\u2019ll\u00e1h\u2019s exile, His followers would travel from Persia\u2014sometimes for months and on foot\u2014to visit Him in person.

The practice of pilgrimage to the Haifa-\u2018Akk\u00e1 area has continued. Today, Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00ed pilgrims pray and meditate at the Shrine of Bah\u00e1\u2019u\u2019ll\u00e1h and the Shrine of the B\u00e1b, as well as in the beautiful gardens that surround them. They also draw inspiration from the time spent at various historical sites associated with the lives of Bah\u00e1\u2019u\u2019ll\u00e1h, \u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1, and Shoghi Effendi, as well as from visits to the edifices dedicated to the worldwide administration of the Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00ed Faith.\n\u201cHoly Places are undoubtedly centres of the outpouring of Divine grace,\u201d wrote \u2018Abdu\u2019l-Bah\u00e1, \u201cbecause on entering the illumined sites associated with martyrs and holy souls, and by observing reverence, both physical and spiritual, one\u2019s heart is moved with great tenderness.\u201d1\nPilgrimage offers Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00eds from a vast number of cultures and countries the unique opportunity to enjoy precious moments of spiritual fellowship together. Pilgrims have been described as the \u201clife-blood\u201d of the Bah\u00e1\u2019\u00ed World Centre, bringing with them news of their activities and taking back to their countries inspiration and new insights. Returning home after a short but intensive sojourn in the Holy Land, they feel reinvigorated by the experience, keen to rededicate themselves to service to humanity, and eager to share with family and friends the joy that has filled their hearts.",

        "raw_content": "A stroll in Tirana\nCities in search of an author I 16/03/2009\nBetween Albania and Macedonia: Patriarchal loves 29/09/2010\nKruja, the Bazaar saved by the regime 23/12/2010\nUrban landscape, Tirana - by L.Zanoni\nPublic and private space. The latter eats up the former, chewing away bits of freedom and identity. The collective dimension overwhelmed by traffic and private property. A sociological reflection on urban planning in Tirana\nFrom an urbanistic point of view, Tirana is first and foremost a physical space, relatively easy to forget. It is a bit harder to define the city's public space, gone through radical transformations in the last few years.\nUnder the totalitarian regime, the capital's public space had created a physionomy of its own: squares, streets, parks, stations, libraries...all spaces where people could move freely, where they had an identity - needless to say, within the boundaries of the architectural and urbanistic philosophy of the time.\nEveryone can easily understand - people from Tirana better than any other - how the city's public space has shrinked in the last few years. The main reason involves its \"occupation\" by private property. The most emblematic case is to be found in the park \"Rinia\" (\"Youth\") in downtown Tirana, that during the nineties turned into a battlefield of two dimensions. Before the citizens' very - and dazed - eyes, the park was savagely mauled by packs of private interests, that stuffed it with bars, pubs, and restaurants of all sorts trading in beer, raki, and idleness.\nThe requalification of the \"Rinia\" park in the last few years is undoubtedly a great conquest, and yet a lonely one. It would be worth celebrating generation after generation, had it not had a sort of numbing effect towards legitimate reactions of public space as a whole. The park is offered up, usually in political discourse, as a trophy of the city's \"victory\" against brutal privatisation - fatally confusing the battle with the struggle.\nOn the other hand, it must be considered that public space is also defined by its use. For example, a park or a square that are constantly closed cannot be defined public. In this regard, public space has gone through constant mutilations during the years of democracy. This happened for reasons that are objective (increased number of cars), urbanistic (pavements disappearing or decreasing), but also subjective (increase in the use of cars).\nBlloku, the famous neighbourhood of the Communist leadership, has an opposite history. From strictly private - it used to be watched by the Republican Guard - it became a public and busy space. Yet, it must face chaos, traffic, constructions, works in progress, and so forth. It is worth noting that Blloku lacks a public park of its own, as it was initially designed with \"private\" parks around the manors, guarded by soldiers with kalashnikovs in their hands. Blloku itself was a sort of private park, where members of the Albanian Politburo strolled undisturbed along tree-lined avenues. In other words, we now end up with a stunted public space, more adapted than designed according to its purpose.\nIf public space used to have essentially ideological elements, where even abnormal void had its own totalitarian function, currently there is no such thing. We cannot say, though, that ideology was left out in the cold. It lacks homogeneity, unity - perhaps similarly to a nebular matter that has not materialised yet - but the past's ideological elements still cohabitate with more recent ones. The very idea of parade survives: yesterday, standing before the Red Tribune - today, in a car before shimmering shop-windows. The problem is, conceptually speaking, cars and public space are at the antipodes. Individualism is wrapped up in the bodyworks' shell, be it shining or scratched, functioning as a wall in human relationships. Furthermore, sooner or later, those who design cars like shoes will see in trees and public spaces mere encumbrances to their lonely path.\nUrban planning in post-totalitarian years had to face the pressure of a cutthroat capitalism without rules, that found in construction the ram to crash the doors of public space. The housing demand is too strong to give architecture the time necessary to elaborate some kind of identity, oscillating like a pendulum clock between kitsch and eclectism. The periphery has been - and is being - ravished to the last inch by both abusive and legal constructions. Public space is an alien notion around here, when not invaded by mud, bricks, and concrete. The inhabitants of the periphery were made aware of such a concept only when it was thrown on the first pages of newspapers, as happened with the \"Zogu i Zi\"roundabout , when urbanistic choices turned into a battlefield between Albanian political forces. This is another function of public space here: to turn into a ring where political forces train and fight.\nThe \"Liqeni Artificial\" (\"Artificial Lake\") park is another place of exceptional symbolic value. Inch after inch, bite after bite, the private sector is gradually devouring it. Even the part that miraculously survived owes its life to the service it offers to private business from an aesthetic point of view. Thus, we have public space living in function of the private, instead of private business serving public space.\nThe railway station has never meant for Tirana's people what Termini means in Rome, or Atocha in Madrid. However, especially in summer, it did have some significance for those who went to the seaside, or came from other towns to see their families or simply solve some problems. Now even the shell of that station is gone, as Albanian railways were sentenced to death by recent policies privileging road transport.\nA bizarre fate awaits a city that for so many years had been designed and developed under the notion of public space, temporarily conditioned by ideology, but faraway from traffic and the private overwhelming the collective dimension. Nonetheless, as an inhabitant of Tirana, I keep dreaming people-oriented public spaces for my city, as well as long strolls along streets and pavements. Downtown, but also in the periphery. I see myself walking without fatigue, perhaps surrounded by trees, and eventually saying: \"Shall we walk some more?\". Perhaps just to myself.",

        "raw_content": "The House of Lords can\u2019t be anything like the US Senate, Mr Caldwell\nLetters, Financial Times, 17-18 March 2007:\nA reformed Lords essential to hold executive to account\nBy Brian Barder\nSir, For once Christopher Caldwell's feel for the British constitution and politics has deserted him (\"An impasse at the House of Lords\", March 10). An all-elected second chamber would not result in \"'gridlock' arising from two co-equal legislatures with clashing cultures and interests\", because the two chambers would not be \"co-equal\": the Commons would retain its primacy as generator, host, sustainer and potential destroyer of governments, the chamber in which virtually all significant ministers sit and which alone controls supply, and the one able ultimately to override objections of the second chamber to its decisions.\nIf in addition the second chamber is elected a third at a time on a different timetable to the Commons, with each member serving for a longer term, and by a different electoral system that denies an overall majority to any single party, no danger of a challenge to the Commons or even of a claim to equality with the Commons can arise.\nFor all these reasons Mr Caldwell's analogy with the US Senate is faulty. However, Mr Caldwell is correct in pointing out that the current controversy over alleged \"cash for peerages\" has effectively discredited any idea of appointing even a small proportion of members of the second chamber, a proposal (along with the suggestion of party lists for elections to it) brazenly designed to perpetuate the executive's power of patronage and its already excessive control over both Houses of Parliament.\nFinally, Mr Caldwell should know that the question whether we \"need a second house in the first place\" is often raised and that the answer to it is that abolition of the second chamber would leave us with a House of Commons already almost completely subservient to and controlled by the executive via the party system and the whips, whereas what is needed is much greater parliamentary power to hold the executive to account, for which a reformed, wholly elected second chamber is absolutely essential.\n(HM Diplomatic Service 1965-94)\nI share most of your opinions; the vital need for a scrutinising and moderating chamber,the primacy of the Commons and the problem of patronage. However I abhor the prospect of yet another bunch of political aparatchiks being manipulated into office. There must be scope for expertise such as is now provided by the Law Lords, crossbenchers from business etc and, yes, even a few Bishops. In short I pray that we are spared an all-elected second chamber \u2013 especially if elected from party lists. It must be possible to devise a 'neutral' Appointments Commission to establish those special groups/communities qualifying to nominate their representatives. What noone seems to remember is that the present House of Lords has actually served this country rather well over the past 50 years despite its quirky, partially unrepresentative and unwieldy composition . Unfortunately we have a government bent on destroying our constitution for largely partisan motives and with no sense of history! I truly fear for justice, stability and democracy in Britain.\nBrian writes: Jeremy, thanks for that. I think the idea of an upper house representing the major interest groups in the state is a little close to Mussolini's idea of democracy (the corporate state) for comfort, although it has its attractions \u2014 until you begin to think about the sheer impossibility of deciding which interests and groups would need to be included. Nor do I think you need to appoint people to membership for their expertise: few experts have much to contribute outside their own area of expertise, which will rarely be relevant to the proceedings. Anyway experts can always be called on by Select Committees (and why not invite them to participate without vote in plenary proceedings?) ad hoc: they don't need to be members. I agree about the need to avoid \"yet another bunch of political aparatchiks\", which is what would result from Jack Straw's impudent proposal to elect the second chamber on party lists, which would mean that membership would depend on the approval of the party whips and leaders: there needs to be a system that allows fringe parties and independents to get themselves elected. The system for electing the Australian Senate isn't a bad model, although complex. It has to be by PR to ensure that no party has an overall majority. In my view, re-election should be banned (but members should serve for around 12 years each), and anyone who had been elected to the second chamber should be banned from standing for election to the House of Commons. There might even be a case for banning anyone who has ever been an MP from standing for election to the second chamber. The distinctive functions of the second chamber should attract more serious people than the Commons does, and bans of the kind suggested should keep out the clapped-out hacks, the careerists, and those being rewarded by membership for years of sheep-like obedience to the whips. With those safeguards, I see no reason why we should shy away from an all-elected house. Not to trust the electorate to choose worth-while representatives \u2014 and remember that their votes for that chamber wouldn't affect which party formed a government \u2014 doesn't strike me as democratic, and the experience of the many other countries with elected second chambers is reassuring. I don't see why Britain should be uniquely disabled from electing all the members of its own legislature. Our democracy should have matured sufficiently for that by now!\nBy the way, the law lords are due to disappear from the House of Lords soon anyway, as I understand it. Judges shouldn't be mixed up with politicians. (Nor of course should bishops!)\nThe House of Lords is in a greater mess than ever thanks to the halfcock \"reforms\" of this government. But we should not let that distract us from the far more important problem that the House of Commons is also in a mess, neatly symbolised by Tony Blair's gesture in quitting it just before the recent debate on the Iraq war, a gesture that was given the routine Punch and Judy treatment in Parliament but ignored outside it.\nWe have reached the pass that debates on major topics in the House of Commons, unless they happen to occasion party revolts or the like, are scarcely reported in the media, and the debate on the Today programme or the Tonight programme is regarded by ministers, politicians and it would appear the general public as far more significant.\nThis could perhaps be a new form of democracy, though I am such an old sentimentalist that I prefer the Parliamentary kind. The new version has a major fault:: although our media masters have shown that they can get ministers sacked, they are not so good at policy. I recall a full-length interview with David Cameron which was mainly about whether he had a car following him when he rode his bicycle, and I have lost count of the number of interviews with the prime minister designate which have allowed him to go on about the economy and seldom or never answer questions about policy on anything else.\nBrian writes: I entirely agree that the House of Commons is also in urgent need of reform, principally to free it from the control of the executive, the party leaders and the whips, although the system probably needs more radical surgery to achieve that than the patient could survive. It's partly because the People's House has effectively lost the power and will to hold the government to account and to check its multiplying excesses that the case for democratising and reviving the second chamber seems to me so urgently necessary, as I pointed out in my FT letter (see main post). The paradox is that although the current composition of the Lords looks as if it has been devised by a wild-eyed political philosopher in the grip of a nervous breakdown, in practice Their Lordships often do a quite effective job in challenging the government's most extreme nonsenses. But the situation is neither defensible nor sustainable.\nMake it like jury duty. Randomly select members of the public for a one-year term. Seriously though, I think any discussion of this is moot for as long as the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill is law. Restore parliamentry democracy and then address the House of Lords. Given that they, along with the judiciary, have been our last bulwark against the Blair regime\u2019s dictatorial aspirations, I don\u2019t want to see them reformed by this criminal government.\nNext story Some more budget items: \u00a3143 billions wasted on four white elephants\nPrevious story Renewing Trident: a letter to my Labour MP",

Police said the child suffered head injuries and was transported in serious condition after a truck struck a small passenger vehicle from behind, after the car pulled out in front of the truck. According to police the truck flipped after it struck the passenger vehicle from behind. It stopped on its driver's side door.\nThe teen had to be cut from the car by a firefighting team. He was in the back seat of the car driven by his 16-year-old brother, according to police. Police are investigating but said it was possible that slowing or stopped traffic could have played a part in the accident.\nWe hate hearing of accidents that involve teens and minors. Our thoughts are with everyone involved in the crash and we hope for a safe and quick recovery to anyone that was injured.

        "raw_content": "Malawi gay couple released after presidential pardon\nTwo gay men jailed in Malawi but later pardoned by the country's President Bingu wa Mutharika have been released from prison, say reports.\nSteven Monjeza and Tiwonge Chimbalanga had been given 14-year jail terms for \"gross indecency and unnatural acts\" after celebrating their engagement.\nThey were pardoned during a visit by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.\nBut a government minister told the BBC the men could be re-arrested if they continued their relationship.\nThe case sparked international condemnation and a debate about homosexuality in the country.\nMonjeza, 26, and Chimbalanga, 20, were released from prison on Saturday evening, hours after Mr Mutharika announced their pardon.\nGift Trapence, director of the campaign group Centre for the Development of the People (Cedep) which had been supporting the couple, said they had been taken separately to their home villages.\n\"The prison authorities told them they had been given instruction from above that they should take them to their respective homes,\" he told the AFP news agency.\nMr Trapence said they had been \"warmly welcomed by their respective relatives\" when they arrived home.\n'No change'\nBut Patricia Kaliati, Malawi's Minister of Gender and Children, said Monjeza and Chimbalanga's release did not mean they could continue their relationship.\n\"It doesn't mean that now they are free people, they can keep doing whatever you keep doing,\" she said.\nMs Kaliati said they could be rearrested if they \"continue doing that\".\nThe men's lawyer said they were unlikely to be treated in the same way if they were arrested again.\n\"The pardon only applies to the offence under which they were convicted. If, for example, they go back and the state is of the view that they have recommited the offence, the pardon will not apply,\" said Mauya Msuku.\nMonjeza and Chimbalanga were arrested in December last year, a day after they celebrated their engagement and had been in custody ever since.\nThey were convicted of engaging in gay sex under a law dating back to colonial rule by Britain and sentenced to 14 years with hard labour.\nJudge Nyakwawa Usiwa-Usiwa said their actions went \"against the order of nature\".\nBut on Saturday, Mr Mutharika said he was pardoning the pair on humanitarian grounds.\n\"In all aspects of reasoning, in all aspects of human understanding, these two gay boys were wrong - totally wrong,\" he said.\n\"However, now that they have been sentenced, I as the president of this country have the powers to pronounce on them and therefore, I have decided that with effect from today, they are pardoned and they will be released.\"\nHis comments came after a meeting with UN chief Mr Ban, who praised the decision as courageous.\nBut Ms Kaliati insisted that the president had not bowed to international pressure in releasing the men.\nShe said Malawi would not now reconsider its laws against homosexuality.\n\"We have our own rules and laws which we are following, and our own constitution. Our constitution is not the same as your constitution,\" she said in her BBC interview.\nMany of Britain's former colonies have similar laws outlawing homosexuality - India overturned it last year.\nIn Uganda, MPs are debating whether to strengthen the laws to include the death penalty for some gay people - a move which has infuriated Western governments and human rights campaigners.\nMalawi pardons jailed gay couple\nMalawi gays 'must be more open'\nReligion, politics and homophobia",

        "raw_content": "Rick Scott: \"Day One Would Be Nice For Me\" On Death Sentence For Floridians Thanks To ACA Repeal\nRick Scott, the Grim Reaper of the health care industry, is unsurprisingly giddy at the prospect of Republicans finally killing off President Obama's health care law, and possibly thousands of Americans right along with it. In fact, he was so excited about it that he recently fled Florida once again to offer his assistance with ending it to the person Donald Trump passed him over for to run the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Republican Tom Price. After meeting with Price, Scott, who normally avoids press coverage, couldn't wait to share his glee, saying this about the end of health insurance as we know it for thousands:\n\"Day one would be nice for me.\"\nOf course \"day one would be nice\" for him. He's not the one who will lose his health insurance, nor will he have to worry about paying more for it as long as he's a public servant and has those he presumes to govern for footing the bill for him. (Republicans in the Florida legislature voted to keep his and their own premiums low, but Floridans still have to pay for it, whether they themselves have insurance or not.)\nBecause for people like these Republicans in general, and Rick Scott in particular, it wasn't enough just to block 800,000 of the state's working poor from getting health care by their refusal to expand Medicaid. No sir. They hope to end coverage for thousands more while throwing the insurance industry into chaos in spite of this:\nFlorida has more people signed up for private insurance coverage under the ACA marketplace than any other state: at least 1.5 million. Since the marketplace opened in 2013, the percentage of Floridians from 18 to 64 without insurance has dropped from 21.5 percent to 13.2 percent, according to Enroll America, a coalition formed to promote the ACA.\nAnd it's not just those without Medicaid, or those who will lose coverage and/or subsidies who will be hurt by repeal (and let's be clear, that's all the Republicans have plans for as of now: repeal. They don't have a replacement yet, and it's quite possible they never will.) It means rates could go up for everybody once again. Repeal of every part of the ACA absent a replacement means going back to the old ways when insurance companies can raise your premiums through the roof whenever they feel like it, when they can decide what they cover or not no matter what you paid for, when they can end your coverage for reasons of their own choosing. They can return to the days when anyone with a pre-existing condition was uninsurable, and when they alone can determine what a pre-existing condition was, say a hangnail, or simply being a woman. It would be a return to the days when everyone is just one health issue away from losing everything, not just possibly their lives.\nThere are real human costs to ending the ACA, and that human cost means quite a high body count in Florida if Scott's \"Day one would be nice for me\" hopes come true. Just look at the numbers in this state by state chart, depending on whichever scenario Republicans go with. Anywhere from 1,425,000 to 2,230,000 will lose their insurance, resulting in death sentences for thousands.\nSo of course Scott can live with that. The question for Floridians is, can you? If the answer is \"no,\" you may want to take it up with your Congressmen before it's too late. Because Republicans are all over the airwaves and the editorial pages speaking for you, claiming the American people want to end the ACA in spite of record breaking sign-ups continuing as I write this.\nIf they don't speak for you, you had better speak up now while you still have the chance.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 12/19/2016 at 01:32 PM in Affordable Care Act, Donald Trump, Health Care, Medicaid, Republicans, Rick Scott | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: ACA, Donald Trump, Florida, Health Care, Medicaid, Republicans, Rick Scott\nRick Scott \"Doesn't Agree\" With Trump's Views On Sexually Assaulting Women, But He Still Supports Him\nRick Scott took time out from his \"busy schedule\" touring the state amid Hurricane Matthew cleanup and using the storm as another vehicle for voter suppression to weigh in on his chosen candidate for president's casual view that sexually assaulting women is apparently okay if you're \"a star\" like him.\nThe governor, who also happens to be the chair of a Trump Super PAC, had this to say about the vulgar bloviations of his candidate:\n\"I'm not following politics closely right now, but this is terrible. I don't agree with anyone talking like this about anyone, ever.\"\nWhat Scott didn't say: \"And I withdraw my endorsement and my support of Trump.\"\nNo, Scott's not following politics closely right now, other than refusing to extend the voter registration deadline for people displaced by the hurricane who may not have registered already, while Democrats are clobbering Republicans in the voter registration department, and as Hillary Clinton is beating Trump in the polls here.\nOf course, Scott doesn't have to be \"following politics closely right now\" to continue chairing a Super PAC supporting Donald Trump either, which is still collecting donations as I write.\nRick Scott says no one should talk like this about anyone, ever, but he doesn't feel that should bar Trump from the presidency? After all, up until now, the rest of the things Trump has said and done were okay too, as well as this observation from Orange Captain Obvious:\nYes, who really cares? Because money talks, and \"profits over people\" is a preference for both Trump and Scott, as is their love for unchecked power. Scott currently has it and Trump desperately wants it. Two peas in a pod.\nThere's apparently nothing Trump can do or say that will keep Rick Scott from supporting him.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 10/08/2016 at 04:08 PM in Donald Trump, Election 2016, Rick Scott | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: Donald Trump, Election 2016, Rick Scott\nTrump Super PAC Chair Rick Scott Will Pick State Attorney To Investigate Trump-Bondi\nWhat Conflict Of Interest?\nThe donation Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi solicited and received from Donald Trump just before she decided not to investigate complaints against Trump University has sparked several calls for investigations and numerous complaints.\nFlorida Governor Rick Scott, a supporter of Donald Trump, and the chair of a Trump Super PAC, will now be in a position to pick which State Attorney will lead one of those investigations.\nBecause when it comes to Florida politics, conflict of interest is baked into the cake. Republicans wouldn't have it any other way.\nAccording to The Tampa Bay Times, Hillsborough County State Attorney Mark Ober, the man charged with investigating one of the bribery complaints, has requested that another prosecutor take over because his friendship with Pam Bondi is a conflict of interest. But buried in the Times story is this:\nScott now can choose which of the other 19 state attorneys in Florida should consider an investigation into Bondi.\nThat would be Rick Scott, YUGE supporter of Donald Trump and Bondi, and the chair of Rebuilding America Now, a Super PAC created to help elect the very man whose apparent pay-to-play action launched the very same investigation, along with several others.\nIn other words, by stepping aside due to a conflict of interest, Ober may give way to an even larger conflict of interest in the investigation, and, dare I be cynical, perhaps grease the skids even more in Trump and Bondi's favor considering Scott gets to handpick the investigator.\nBeing the chair of Rebuilding America Now, the Super PAC which itself is under scrutiny, has its own share of conflicts for Rick Scott:\nThe one saving grace, according to interviews with a dozen people with ties to the group: Scott, the Florida governor who chairs the super PAC. He has made a significant contribution to the super PAC from his own personal fortune, CNN has learned from a super PAC aide.\n\"We were the one blessed by the current regime, and the regime left,\" said one super PAC official, who said that his concerns have been soothed by Scott's success. \"It was fits and starts before that, and it's fits and starts now.\"\nScott's is an unusual role: the chief executive of the nation's third largest state -- with a net worth estimated to be over $100 million -- holding a side gig glad-handing the nation's wealthiest Republicans to help the party's presidential nominee.\nAn \"unusual role\" is certainly one way to put it. You could even say one man's \"blessing\" is another man's conflict of interest.\nThis same article goes on to explain that Scott has struggled to persuade big donors to join him, and that even members of the Republican Party have tried and failed to get Scott to instead distance himself from Trump and his toxicity. In fact, an anonymous party member, in a Trump-like fashion, even said this:\n\"I'm kind of glad there are hurricanes and Zika that take up a bunch of his time,\" said one person close with Scott who is encouraging him to scale back.\nThat's the Republican Party for you, cheering on natural disasters and virus outbreaks if they may in any way benefit the party.\nBut this anonymous and ever so concerned Republican need not have worried. Scott is perfectly capable of making political hay out of all three things at once. You could say he's a bit of a disaster multi-tasker, having been at the helm of one after another ever since he took office, a majority of his own making. He's also a natural ally to Trump, in that their personal business interests put them in a position to potentially benefit financially if they govern accordingly. Anyone who's been paying attention to Scott, how he governs, and his \"blind trust\" could hardly be surprised that he would not only support Trump, but take an active role to help get him elected. Aside from raising money and appearing at his side for rallies, many are holding there breath in horror at the thought of a repeat performance of numerous election shenanigans Scott and his SOS have taken part in during past elections that could benefit the toxic Trump.\nMeanwhile, back in pay-to-play land, Scott and Bondi continue to shrug off any scrutiny of her actions in soliciting the donation from Trump just as she decided to take no action on behalf of Floridans who complained Trump and his \"University\" cost them dearly, as if it's nothing. Of course, when this is business as usual in their eyes, that's hardly surprising. But many others beg to differ, as all the calls for investigations and all the complaints filed show.\nAs for handpicking another investigator for this complaint, Scott unsurprisingly says nothing to see here:\nThough the request came from Ober's office Aug. 22, it has not yet been acted on by the governor.\n\u201cWe received the letter and will process this reassignment request with the same protocol as other reassignment requests,\" Scott spokeswoman Lauren Schenone said in a statement.\nIt's common for state attorneys to request their cases be reassigned when they see a conflict of interest. However, it's less common for the subjects of a complaint to be Florida's top legal officer with ties to every state attorney.\nBondi's office and Trump's campaign have repeatedly insisted that the bribery allegations are not true. Addressing reporters in Washington on Tuesday, Scott, who chairs a pro-Trump super PAC, echoed those complaints.\n\u201cIt\u2019s just partisan politics,\" Scott said.\n\"Just partisan politics\" says Scott, shrugging off yet another conflict of interest so big Trump could fly his company plane through it on a flight paid for by the donors Scott has managed to string along on Trump's and his business's behalf.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 09/15/2016 at 01:05 PM in Donald Trump, Election 2016, Pam Bondi, Rick Scott | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: Donald Trump, Election 2016, Florida, Pam Bondi, Rick Scott, Trump University",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Planning / Role of the Bedford Park Society\nRole of the Bedford Park Society\nAll decisions to grant or refuse a planning application in the Bedford Park Conservation Area are taken by the planning committees of Ealing and Hounslow councils or, for smaller schemes, under delegated authority by officers. Councillors have the right to request a call-in for further consideration although this is rarely exercised for residential applications.\nDecisions are guided by a legislative planning framework, which lays down guidelines for appropriate development for listed buildings and conservation areas. This framework includes both national planning legislation and local plans drawn up by each borough.\nThree of the Society\u2019s Planning Committee members serve on the Conservation Area Advisory Panel set up by Ealing Council to comment on all new applications and in Hounslow the Society (through the same three Society members) is directly invited by the Council to comment on planning applications, thereby ensuring consistency of approach throughout the conservation area. The Society\u2019s comments are always consistent with what is laid down in the national and local legislation and guidance.\nIndividual residents also have the right to comment directly to the relevant Council.\nThe local authorities refer all planning submissions for work in the conservation area to the Society. They may take account of comments from the Society but they are not obliged to do so. Applicants have the right to appeal against the refusal of their application.\nThe Society has always taken the view that some change is inevitable and indeed necessary, if Bedford Park is to continue as a vibrant community. It does not want to preserve the past intact, but is concerned to ensure that the estate\u2019s unique architectural qualities are not compromised. It is continually monitoring developments in building technology \u2013 particular anything, which reduces the carbon footprint \u2013 which householders might be able to incorporate within these constraints. The members of the Society\u2019s Planning Committee have unrivalled expertise and experience in Bedford Park buildings and are also able to draw on the advice or support of Historic England.\nThe Society\u2019s aim is to protect the character of the area, to encourage the sympathetic design of alterations and additions, and to encourage owners to consider the importance of boundary fences, mature trees and open spaces in keeping the character of the street scene. Our intention is to assist sensitive analysis and decision making, not to prescribe a single solution. There is often a case for more than one design detail to be appropriate in particular circumstances.\nEvery proposal is looked at individually, with neighbours\u2019 views also taken into consideration. In 2015 the Society commented on 38 applications to Ealing Council and 34 to Hounslow with responses having to be made within the tight timeframe of only three weeks.\nThe committee\u2019s help is freely available to members who live within the conservation area and members are encouraged to contact the Society prior to making planning applications. To contact the Society email: planning@bedfordpark.org.uk.",

        "title": "UPDATE: School Officials Make Outrageous Claim Against Disabled Student Raped With a Hanger | National News | BET",
        "raw_content": "Idaho school officials are being sued for civil rights violations after a Black student with mental disabilities was allegedly raped with a coat hanger by high school football players. The school officials in question have denied all allegations and say that the victim was \"not vulnerable\" to the attack. They are also demanding that the victim's family pay for their legal fees in a civil suit filed against the school.\nThe allegation comes from an incident on October 22, 2015, when the alleged victim was lured into the locker room at Dietrich High School and had a coat hangar forcibly shoved into his anus and kicked repeatedly by three white students: John R.K. Howard, 18 (pictured below), and Tanner Ward, 17, are being tried as adults and could face life in prison if convicted. The third unnamed student is being tried as a juvenile.\nThe victim's family claims that the victim was harassed and bullied for months leading up to the ultimate assault, and that no adult in power at the school did anything to stop it. The defendants in the lawsuit claim that the alleged victim did not notify anyone who could have done anything to stop the bullying.\nThe victim was diagnosed with learning disabilities and other mental disorders at a young age, and was placed into an individualized education program. Following the assault, the alleged victim needed hospital care to treat his injuries, and the victim's family told Buzzfeed that following the filing of the civil lawsuit against the school officials, the victim checked into a mental health facility.\nThe victim's family is also claiming that the victim faced verbal abuse as well, being called racist names for Black people, such as \"chicken eater,\" \"watermelon\" and the n-word. The defendants in the civil suit, however, claim that the alleged victim was \"well liked\" by many of his classmates, and had friends on the football team.\nAdditionally, the victim's family believes the school officials tried to keep quiet on the whole incident. Dietrich City Mayor Donald Heiken said, \u201cWhen this first happened, the community, it was hush hush. Nobody spoke about it at all.\u201d\nThe defendants have now asked the judged to dismiss the civil rights violations charges, and requested that the victim\u2019s family pay their legal fees.\nIt is disheartening to see those in charge trying to rid themselves of any responsibility when it comes to protecting those in the school system who need protection. This is a complicated case, and lawsuit. Hopefully the truth comes to light, and those responsible face justice.\n(Photos from top: Rob Kuznia, Tarrant County Jail)",

        "raw_content": "Many consumers are under the impression that going through bankruptcy will ruin a person\u2019s credit score. While it is true that the entry of a recent bankruptcy filing on a credit report may decrease the overall score, a consumer still has ways that he or she can improve that score. The person will want to take certain steps before and after filing for bankruptcy. Additionally, it would be wise for an individual considering filing for bankruptcy to do such with a reputable attorney. A reputable attorney will have the skills necessary to navigate the laws in a way that benefits the debtor.\nPreparing before Bankruptcy\nWhen an individual is considering filing for bankruptcy, chances are high that person has already suffered a dramatic drop in credit score. However, if that person owns a car or house that they wish to keep, they can greatly benefit themselves by keeping the car loan or mortgage accounts current at all times, as these accounts are always reported to the credit bureaus and often are given more consideration than unsecured loans when determining overall credit score. Keeping gas and electric accounts current also will be beneficial.\nHire a Reputable Attorney\nAnother step for improving one\u2019s credit score is to hire a reliable attorney for filing the bankruptcy case. A bankruptcy professional such as Attorney James Stanek can provide a wide variety of services to a debtor in need of debt restructuring or debt forgiveness. First, he will determine the debtor\u2019s eligibility for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Next, he will help the client to prepare the most professional and detailed documentation to submit to the courts. This skilled attorney will also negotiate and fight creditor objections as they come. Just having a good attorney by one\u2019s side can help a credit score in the end.\nAfter the bankruptcy has been completed, there will be ample opportunity to rehabilitate the credit score. The delinquent accounts that have been discharged will cease to report negatively, as those debts no longer exist. In addition, most debtors are eligible to obtain a credit card immediately upon receiving their discharge, and using a credit card responsibly and paying the balance each month when due will add favorable reporting to the credit record. If the debtor has obtained a car loan after discharge, or had a car loan or mortgage which he or she kept, keeping those accounts current will add very favorable reporting to the credit record.\nBeing debt free will make any person more desirable to a prospective creditor. Creditors are far more interested in your current situation than what may have happened in the past. Once the high interest debt has been discharged, most people are easily able to pay their monthly expenses and even start saving money. Responsible financial practices will result in a good credit score before long.",

        "raw_content": "Battery Maker EnerBlu Gets $30M Tax Incentive for Kentucky Move\nCalifornia battery company EnerBlu Inc. is getting two silver mint julep cups, a handle of Maker\u2019s Mark, and up to $30 million in tax incentives for moving its headquarters to Lexington and opening a new plant in eastern Kentucky.\nThe private company\u2019s planned $412 million investment was heralded Dec. 15 by state and federal politicians, as well as investors such as American Electric Power Co., Inc. (AEP). U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers (R-Ky.) called it \u201cthe real deal\u201d that is projected to add 110 jobs at the headquarters and 875 jobs at a to-be-built Pikeville, Kentucky plant that will build batteries for electrical commercial vehicles.\nThe deal was championed because it brings hundreds of new manufacturing jobs to a part of the state decimated by the decline of the coal industry. The unemployment rate in that part of the state is 6.7 percent, and incentives approved by the state last week are tied to creating jobs paying an average of $39 per hour, including benefits. The median per-capita income in that part of the state is only $10.06 per hour.\nSilicon \u201cHoller\u201d\n\u201cAn abandoned land becomes a new landscape for new opportunities,\u201d Rogers said at a Dec. 15 press conference in Pikeville. \u201cThis is the first major development project for \u2018Silicon Holler.\u2019\u201d\nFlanking politicians during the press conference were some unlikely investors\u2014an actor born in the area and an energy executive who both said they believe the business will bring energy jobs back to the community.\nBoyd Holbrook, star in the Netflix show \u201cNarcos,\u201d said he was encouraged to see energy jobs coming back to the community where his father was a miner. \u201cLet\u2019s take it back to America\u2019s energy capital.\u201d\nInstead of muscling out the smart-grid company, Matthew Satterwhite, president and chief operating officer of electrical utility Kentucky Power Co., a subsidiary of AEP, said that once he learned about EnerBlu he became part of the recruitment process and got AEP to invest instead of compete.\n\u201cI\u2019ve got an energy company coming in and I\u2019m a power company. I could stiff arm that and say, \u2018I don\u2019t want that coming here,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cThis is the future.\u201d\nNationwide Bid\nThe Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority wouldn\u2019t disclose which other states were vying for EnerBlu or what they were offering. However, company executives and local politicians said the bidding process was nationwide. Media reports had said that EnerBlu was also considering a transfer to Nevada, Utah, or Washington.\n\u201cWe went everywhere. Johnny Cash had nothing on us,\u201d Michael Weber, EnerBlu executive chairman said, choking back tears. \u201cHere we were welcome like nowhere else.\u201d\nPikeville has around 7,100 citizens, according to U.S. Census data. However, Gov. Matt Bevin (R) said the only other factory in the world working on batteries similar to EnerBlu\u2019s started as a 35-person factor in China and now has 8,000 workers.\nEconomic development officials from Nevada and Washington didn\u2019t immediately respond to requests for comment. The Utah body that approves development incentives didn\u2019t vote on an incentive agreement with EnerBlu, Sara Adelman, spokesperson for the Governor\u2019s Office of Economic Development, told Bloomberg Tax in a Dec. 15 email.\nTo contact the editor responsible for this story: Cheryl Saenz at csaenz@bloombergtax.com",

        "raw_content": "Home / Movies / Jersey Boys Introduces Four Actors in Starring Role\nJersey Boys Introduces Four Actors in Starring Role\nIn assembling the main cast for Warner Bros.' inspiring musical drama \u201cJersey Boys,\u201d director Clint Eastwood wanted faces that would be new to moviegoers, and, in fact, the film marks the major feature debut of all four actors cast as the legendary group The Four Seasons at the center of the story. \u201cWe weren\u2019t looking for big stars, we were looking for the best actors for each part, and I think we got them,\u201d the director states. \u201cThey were all great.\u201d\nThey are John Lloyd Young, Vincent Piazza, Michael Lomenda and Erich Bergen.\nThe big-screen version of the Tony Award-winning musical \u201cJersey Boys,\u201d the film tells the story of four young men from the wrong side of the tracks in New Jersey who came together to form the iconic rock group The Four Seasons. The story of their trials and triumphs are accompanied by the songs that influenced a generation, including \u201cSherry,\u201d \u201cBig Girls Don\u2019t Cry,\u201d \u201cWalk Like a Man,\u201d \u201cDawn,\u201d \u201cRag Doll,\u201d \u201cBye Bye Baby,\u201d \u201cWho Loves You,\u201d and many more.\nJohn Lloyd Young says he was thrilled to have the opportunity to return to his breakthrough stage role as Frankie Valli, this time onscreen. \u201cIt was such a joy to play this character and explore more facets of him in a different arena. I love that Frankie believes in himself and fights the only way he knows how to get himself out there, because his success is in no way a foregone conclusion, considering where and how he\u2019s starting out. He\u2019s not perfect and faces some rough consequences in both his personal life and his career, but it was rewarding to play him warts and all.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the culmination of everything I\u2019ve wanted to do as an actor, and to do it with Clint Eastwood directing was a dream come true,\u201d Young continues. \u201cHe\u2019s so interesting to work with. He offered very pointed direction, and yet he also gave us a lot of creative freedom, so the combination of our input as actors and his as a director went beautifully together. Even though I\u2019d played Frankie so many times on stage, this experience felt fresh and new. I think that speaks to the timelessness of the story and, of course, the music of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.\u201d\nDespite his vocal talents, Frankie might never have performed under anything brighter than a streetlight were it not for the drive of his friend Tommy DeVito, played by Vincent Piazza. \u201cHe\u2019s one of those guys who will do whatever it takes to survive and make good,\u201d Piazza says. \u201cHis attitude is if obstacles appear, you go around them or run them over, but you get through.\u201d\nUnfortunately, Tommy\u2019s street-smart swagger is not enough to help him handle the pitfalls of fame and fortune, which has repercussions for everyone. \u201cTommy is responsible for some of the group\u2019s early gains but also a lot of the big defeats,\u201d Piazza admits. \u201cHe\u2019s been managing the group from the start, but it reaches a point where he doesn\u2019t have the skill set to deal with the club owners and record labels and others in that circle. He also has problems with gambling and whatnot, which makes things even worse. Yet, he never loses his confidence, and on some level you have to admire a guy like that. There\u2019s something freeing about playing someone who\u2019s always right. Even when Tommy\u2019s wrong, it\u2019s not his fault.\u201d\nThe group\u2019s growing rift with Tommy is felt most by Nick Massi, their vocal arranger and bass guitarist, who rooms with him on the road. Coming into the role of Nick, Michael Lomenda had some insight into his character\u2019s frustration, having toured for months in the company of \u201cJersey Boys.\u201d \u201cThat kind of existence can make your head spin off your shoulders if you don\u2019t find a way to stay grounded,\u201d he remarks. \u201cI think these guys are launched into this situation before they have the skills to cope. So when you mix a scrapper like Tommy with someone like Nick, who doesn\u2019t say a lot, there has to be a breaking point and that creates some fireworks. For Nick, it\u2019s much more about a lack of respect.\u201d\nFrankie has the voice, Tommy has the ambition and Nick has the ear, but the formula for The Four Seasons is not complete until Bob Gaudio joins the group. Erich Bergen, who stars in the role, notes, \u201cBob is different from the other three guys because he not only came",

When your preschooler turns the pages, looking at a book, he is a reader, and when he can tell you, \"That's McDonald's,\" because he knows the symbol of the golden arches, he is also a reader. Your child is a writer when she tells a story for you to write down, or when she makes marks or letters on paper to tell her own story.\nTo help your child see himself as a reader and writer from the start, involve him with books at an early age: read to your infant from birth, look at picture books with your child and provide books made of plastic and cardboard for your baby to manipulate.

        "raw_content": "\u200bLillian Fike was born and raised in Branford, Connecticut. She attended Branford Public Schools and after graduating from the high school, attended Slippery Rock State College, now University. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Education. After moving to Texas, Lillian taught at a private Kindergarten school. Lillian moved back to Connecticut and was a substitute teacher in Branford and East Haven. She did a lot of substituting for Special Education and decided to get her degree in Special Education at Southern Connecticut State College, now University.\nLillian was hired to be a paraprofessional at the Branford Early Years Special Education Program, then housed in the basement of the Baptist Church. Following her completion of her Special Education Degree, Mrs. Tippet hired her to be a long-term substitute at the Pine Orchard School for a teacher on maternity leave. She was hired as a full-time teacher the 2nd half of the school year. Lillian moved to a Kindergarten position at Indian Neck School when Sharon Dixon moved to a different grade level. She taught there until the Mary T. Murphy School opened. That was the school she retired from.\nShe also used her extensive special education background to serve the needs of all students. She always looked at the individual needs of each child and planned instruction for each. Her calm nature created a welcoming learning environment to all children and families. Lillian had a very special way with English Language Learning (ELL) families that made them feel welcome and safe. Many came to her class with no English. Her ELL students learned from her soft-spoken ways and kindness. She welcomed all students and loved having all the many students she had. Her classroom was a rainbow of diversity.\nLillian helped rewrite the Kindergarten curriculum with Kathy Nelson, Sharon McKinnel and Rita Hennessey. She also worked on science and math curriculum throughout her years of teaching. Lillian frequently attended week long summer workshops to learn new ways of engaging the children in meaningful learning. Lillian attended many of the Kindergarten/Preschool Round Table meetings. She also tutored students during the summer vacations or after school hours. Lillian helped out when the PTA (Parent and Teacher Association) offered after school enrichment by teaching crafts, as well as teaming with Dotty Young to teach nature classes.\nLillian has one son, Christopher Fike. He, his wife Kelly and their two children, Tyler, age 5 and Madison, age 2, live in Barkhamsted, Connecticut. Lillian enjoys time spent with her family members, traveling, sewing, reading and cooking.\nMary T. Murphy School was fortunate to have had Lillian as a lead kindergarten teacher for so many years. All her students benefited from her teaching and kindheartedness.\nLillian taught for many years in kindergarten in several of Branford's elementary schools, ending her career at Murphy School. Lillian was visionary and ahead of many others with designing choice-centered centers in both literacy and math and connected science in her centers. Her students learned from her soft-spoken ways and kindness. She welcomed all students and loved having all the many ELL students she had. Many came to her class with no English. Her classroom was like a rainbow of diversity. Lillian deserves to be inducted into the Branford Hall of Fame - kindergarten and children were her life! Please consider inducting her this year.\nWe would like to nominate Lillian Fike. to be inducted into the Educational Hall of Fame due to the following reasons:\nShe was the forerunner in the following areas:\nDifferentiation - she always looked at the individual needs of each child and planned instruction for each child. She began reading conferences well before it was an expected practice.\nHer calm nature created a welcoming learning environment to all children and families. Lillian had a very special way with ELL families that made them feel welcome and safe. She also used her extensive special education. background to serve the needs of all students.\nHer classroom was always exciting with much hands-on learning in all areas , especially with math and science. As colleagues, she was always supportive, shared ideas and welcomed new ideas and initiatives.\nFinally, Lillian was \"Pinterest\" to us before \"Pinterest\" existed.\nI would like to nominate Lillian Fike for induction to the Branford Education Hall of Fame. My son, (now a High School Senior) had the privilege of having Mrs. Fike as his Kindergarten Teacher. As many of you have experienced it is both an exciting and stressful time when your first born goes to school. In our case, we had an additional concern, having just found out our son was allergic to both peanuts and tree nuts. Mrs. Fike was the most understanding teacher, assuring us her classroom would be a safe place for my son. I felt comfortable every day leaving my son in her care. Aside from that, Mrs. Fike is an excellent teacher. Her calm demeanor and positive attitude lend itself to a wonderful working environment. She sparked interests in her students and made them learn to love school. Everyday my son would come off the bus excited to tell me something new he had learned. As a parent, I could not have asked for a better teacher. Mrs. Fike's communication skills were superb and she always was welcoming to have me volunteer in her classroom. There is no better teacher to nominate than Lillian Fike. Mary T. Murphy school was lucky to have her and so were we.",

        "raw_content": "IG: U.S. Lacks Vital Anti-Corruption Strategy in Afghanistan Despite $104 Billion Spent on Nation-Building\nThe U.S. government, after investing an unprecedented $104 billion of taxpayer funds on nation-building, does not have an anti-corruption strategy in Afghanistan vital to sustaining the gains made in America\u2019s longest war.\nFurthermore, according to John Sopko, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), the U.S. has spent nearly $8 billion on \u201cfailed\u201d efforts to combat the opium trade in Afghanistan, a source of funding for insurgents that threatens stability.\n\u201cThe consensus among everyone I speak with is that if corruption is allowed to continue unabated it will likely jeopardize every gain we\u2019ve made so far in Afghanistan,\u201d said Sopko in written remarks prepared for a September 12 speech at Georgetown University.\n\u201cCorruption destroys the populace\u2019s confidence in their elected officials, siphons off funds that would be used to combat insurgents or build infrastructure, and ultimately leads to a government that is ineffectual and distrusted,\u201d he added.\nAs an example of corruption, SIGAR mentioned the current presidential election debacle taking place there, which he described as \u201ca crisis spawned from corruption, which many fear is putting Afghanistan\u2019s entire future in jeopardy.\u201d\n\u201cSo it is clear that the years ahead present real challenges. Most U.S. and coalition military personnel will be gone as we enter 2015, which is also supposed to mark Afghanistan\u2019s \u2018Decade of Transformation,'\u201d said Sopko.\nHowever, he continued, \u201cthe country remains under assault by insurgents and is short of domestic revenue, plagued by corruption, afflicted by criminal elements involved in opium and smuggling, and struggling to execute basic functions of government. In fact, they haven\u2019t even resolved their recent presidential runoff election yet.\u201d\nThe inspector general explicitly mentioned that the U.S. efforts to combat the opium trade in Afghanistan have been a failure.\nHe said that \u201cthe U.S. has already spent nearly $7.6 billion to combat the opium industry. Yet, by every conceivable metric, we\u2019ve failed.\u201d\nWith minimal chance for improvement, the counter-narcotics situation is \u201cdire,\u201d according to Sopko.\n\u201cThe narcotics trade poisons the Afghan financial sector and fuels a growing illicit economy,\u201d he said. \u201cThis, in turn, undermines the Afghan state\u2019s legitimacy by stoking corruption, nourishing criminal networks and providing significant financial support to the Taliban and other insurgent groups.\u201d\nSIGAR pointed out that U.S.-funded Afghan security forces \u201care reaching arrangements with rural communities to allow opium poppy cultivation, even encouraging production to build local patronage networks and generate illicit income.\u201d\nSopko is \u201castonished\u201d that despite the gravity of the problem, \u201cthe counter-narcotics effort isn\u2019t a top priority during this critical transition period and beyond.\u201d\nNo one in the U.S. government agencies involved in the efforts has \u201cbeen able to convincingly explain to me how the U.S. counter-narcotics efforts are making a meaningful impact on the narcotics trade or how they\u2019ll have a significant impact after the 2014 transition,\u201d he added. \u201cThat\u2019s troubling. Without an effective counter-narcotics strategy and Afghan political will to tackle this problem, Afghanistan could well become a narco-criminal state in the near future.\u201d\nThe U.S. has spent an unprecedented amount on Afghanistan reconstruction in excess of $104 billion with the purpose of building Afghanistan\u2019s government and security forces, improving its economy and infrastructure, expanding access to health care and education, and making improvements to the standard of living and rule of law there.\nIn no other time since the founding of the nation, has that much money been spent on reconstructing a foreign country.\nNevertheless, SIGAR emphasized that \u201cthere has been no progress made toward developing a unified anti-corruption strategy. In fact, things could get worse with the drawdown.\u201d\nAccording to Sopko, the U.S. will continue spending billions annually after the end of President Obama\u2019s military drawdown.\n\u201cIt is widely believed the U.S. will continue to fund reconstruction at another $5 billion to $8 billion annually for years to come,\u201d he said.\nUnder Obama\u2019s plan, U.S. military presence in Afghanistan will shrink to 9,800 troops by December of this year and to an estimated 5,000 by the end of 2015.\n\u201cIt appears we\u2019ve created a government that the Afghans simply cannot afford,\u201d said Sopko.\n\u201cAccordingly, when we build things the Afghans can\u2019t use, and when we don\u2019t take their resources into account, we\u2019re not just wasting money; we\u2019re jeopardizing our mission of creating a self-sustaining Afghanistan that can keep insurgents down and terrorists out.\u201d\nNational SecurityAfghanistanSmuggling",

        "raw_content": "As Government Shutdown Continues, Food Pantries Face Major Strain\nThursday marks the 27th day the federal government has been in a state of partial shutdown, as President Trump continues to demand that Democrats approve nearly $6 billion in funding for a border wall.\nTens of thousands of federal workers have been showing up for their duties without pay, or have been told not to show up for work at all, in what has become the longest partial shutdown of the government in US history. As the president orders tens of thousands more government workers back to work without paychecks (including more than half of IRS employees), many federal employees directly impacted by the shutdown are now in dire financial straits. The lack of pay has put some federal workers in the same position as millions of other Americans who are food insecure, creating more strain on already thin resources.\nFood insecurity \u2014 being in a position where a person can\u2019t afford or otherwise access adequate, nutritious food on a day-to-day basis \u2014 is a persistent problem in the United States. According to US Department of Agriculture figures, around 15 million families (or 12 percent of the US population) dealt with food insecurity in 2017. Last year, Fast Company noted that the number of people facing food insecurity in the US in 2017 was still greater than before the \u201cgreat recession,\u201d and rarely in recent years has the percentage of food-insecure people decreased by a statically significant amount.\nWeeks into the partial shutdown, reports from states around the country indicate that food banks are having a difficult time keeping up with the demand for food now that growing numbers of federal workers, in addition to low-income community members, are turning to food banks to help feed their families.\nIn Massachusetts, according to the Boston Herald, food banks and activists are calling on Governor Charlie Baker to create an emergency plan in the event that the shutdown outlasts the resources of food banks in the state. In Florida, a local nonprofit organization called Feeding Tampa Bay says it is treating the possibility of a further prolonged shutdown \u201clike a hurricane,\u201d and considering a number of options to service Florida food banks that must provide for more people than usual. The Tampa Bay Times reports that Feeding Tampa Bay and the United Way have been providing \u201cpop-up food banks\u201d at airports for TSA and Customs and Border Protection agents, and Federal Aviation Administration employees.\nCompounding and complicating the increased demand on food banks are the limits on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, which is also sometimes still referred to as food stamps). Presently, the USDA is still funding SNAP through February, and SNAP recipients started receiving their February funds as early as Wednesday. State officials across the country, however, are cautioning SNAP recipients that though the funds for February are being distributed now, in mid-January, families will need to budget carefully to ensure those funds will last through the end of next month.\nMeanwhile, federal employees who are currently not being paid and need help affording food, and may qualify for SNAP, can\u2019t even apply because of the shutdown. The federal workers who process SNAP applications are not working, and therefore nobody can apply for SNAP benefits, including federal workers themselves.\nAnd though the USDA is distributing next month\u2019s SNAP benefits early, there is currently no SNAP funding plan for the following months, POLITICO reports. Because SNAP funds might be unavailable for an unknown amount of time after the end of February, food banks are anticipating yet more need from local communities.\nThe Trump administration has already been chipping away at SNAP, including by making it difficult or impossible for undocumented immigrants to apply for SNAP, and empowering states to deny SNAP benefits to people who do not meet certain unemployment criteria. Millions of low-income Americans, many of them women with kids, depend on SNAP to have adequate food for themselves and/or their families.\n(Photos by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)",

        "raw_content": "Study of the structure of the Earth\nThe scientific objective of geodesy is to determine the size and shape of the Earth. The practical role of geodesy is to provide a network of accurately surveyed points on the Earth\u2019s surface, the vertical elevations and geographic positions of which are precisely known and, in turn, may be incorporated in maps. When two geographic coordinates of a control point on the Earth\u2019s surface, its latitude and longitude, are known, as well as its elevation above sea level, the location of that point is known with an accuracy within the limits of error involved in the surveying processes. In mapping large areas, such as a whole state or country, the irregularities in the curvature of the Earth must be considered. A network of precisely surveyed control points provides a skeleton to which other surveys may be tied to provide progressively finer networks of more closely spaced points. The resulting networks of points have many uses, including anchor points or bench marks for surveys of highways and other civil features. A major use of control points is to provide reference points to which the contour lines and other features of topographic maps are tied. Most topographic maps are made using photogrammetric techniques and aerial photographs.\nEarth scientists setting up equipment to monitor changes on the slopes of Mount Saint Helens, Washington, U.S. Ted S. Warren\u2014AP/REX/Shutterstock.com\nThe Earth\u2019s figure is that of a surface called the geoid, which over the Earth is the average sea level at each location; under the continents the geoid is an imaginary continuation of sea level. The geoid is not a uniform spheroid, however, because of the existence of irregularities in the attraction of gravity from place to place on the Earth\u2019s surface. These irregularities of the geoid would bring about serious errors in the surveyed location of control points if astronomical methods, which involve use of the local horizon, were used solely in determining locations. Because of these irregularities, the reference surface used in geodesy is that of a regular mathematical surface, an ellipsoid of revolution that fits the geoid as closely as possible. This reference ellipsoid is below the geoid in some places and above it in others. Over the oceans, mean sea level defines the geoid surface, but over the land areas the geoid is an imaginary sea-level surface.\nToday perturbations in the motions of artificial satellites are used to define the global geoid and gravity pattern with a high degree of accuracy. Geodetic satellites are positioned at a height of 700\u2013800 kilometres above the Earth. Simultaneous range observations from several laser stations fix the position of a satellite, and radar altimeters measure directly its height over the oceans. Results show that the geoid is irregular; in places its surface is up to 100 metres higher than the ideal reference ellipsoid and elsewhere it is as much as 100 metres below it. The most likely explanation for this height variation is that the gravity (and density) anomalies are related to mantle convection and temperature differences at depth. An important observation that confirms this interpretation is that there is a close correlation between the gravity anomalies and the surface expression of the Earth\u2019s plate boundaries. This also strengthens the idea that the ultimate driving force of plate tectonics is a large-scale circulation of the mantle.\nA similar satellite ranging technique is also used to determine the drift rates of continents. Repeated measurements of laser light travel times between ground stations and satellites permit the relative movement of different control blocks to be calculated.\nGeophysics pertains to studies of the Earth that involve the methods and principles of physics. The scope of geophysics touches on virtually all aspects of geology, ranging from considerations of the conditions in the Earth\u2019s deep interior, where temperatures of several thousands of degrees Celsius and pressures of millions of atmospheres prevail, to the Earth\u2019s exterior, including its atmosphere and hydrosphere.\nProfessor Anne Hofmeister loading a rock sample into a laser-flash apparatus to measure the sample's thermal conductivity. Professor Randy Korotev in Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Washington U., St. Louis MO.\nThe study of the Earth\u2019s interior provides a good example of the geophysicist\u2019s approach to problems. Direct observation is obviously impossible. Extensive knowledge of the Earth\u2019s interior has been derived from a variety of measurements, however, including seismic waves produced by quakes that travel through the Earth, measurements of the flow of heat from the Earth\u2019s interior into the outer crust, and by astronomical and other geologic considerations.\nGeophysics may be divided into a number of overlapping branches in the following way: (1) study of the variations in the Earth\u2019s gravity field; (2) seismology, the study of the Earth\u2019s crust and interior by analysis of the transmission of elastic waves that are reflected or refracted; (3) the physics of the outer parts of the atmosphere, with particular attention to the radiation bombardment from the Sun and from outer space, including the influence of the Earth\u2019s magnetic field on radiation intercepted by the planet; (4) terrestrial electricity, which is the study of the storage and flow of electricity in the atmosphere and the solid Earth; (5) geomagnetism, the study of the source, configuration, and changes in the Earth\u2019s magnetic field and the study and interpretation of the remanent magnetism in rocks induced by the Earth\u2019s magnetic field when the rocks were formed (paleomagnetism); (6) the study of the Earth\u2019s thermal properties, including the temperature distribution of the Earth\u2019s interior and the variation in the transmission of heat from the interior to the surface; and (7) the convergence of several of the above-cited branches for the study of the large-scale tectonic structures of the Earth, such as rifts, continental margins, subduction zones, mid-oceanic ridges, thrusts, and continental sutures.\nThe techniques of geophysics include measurement of the Earth\u2019s gravitational field using gravimeters on land and sea and artificial satellites in space (see above); measurement of its magnetic field with hand-held magnetometers or larger units towed behind research ships and aircraft; and seismographic measurement of subsurface structures using reflected and refracted elastic waves generated either by earthquakes or by artificial means (e.g., underground nuclear explosions or ground vibrations produced with special pistons in large trucks). Other tools and techniques of geophysics are diverse. Some involve laboratory studies of rocks and other earth materials under high pressures and elevated temperatures. The transmission of elastic waves through the crust and interior of the Earth is strongly influenced by the behaviour of materials under the extreme conditions at depth; consequently, there is strong reason to attempt to simulate those conditions of elevated temperatures and pressures in the laboratory. At another extreme, data gathered by rockets and satellites yield much information about radiation flux in space and the magnetic effects of the Earth and other planetary bodies, as well as providing high precision in establishing locations in geodetic surveying, particularly over the oceans. Finally, it should be emphasized that the tools of geophysics are essentially mathematical and that most geophysical concepts are necessarily expounded mathematically.\nGeophysics has major influence both as a field of pure science in which the objective is pursuit of knowledge for the sake of knowledge and as an applied science in which the objectives involve solution of problems of practical or commercial interest. Its principal commercial applications lie in the exploration for oil and natural gas and, to a lesser extent, in the search for metallic ore deposits. Geophysical methods also are used in certain geologic-engineering applications, as in determining the depth of alluvial fill that overlies bedrock, which is an important factor in the construction of highways and large buildings.\nMuch of the success of the plate tectonics theory has depended on the corroborative factual evidence provided by geophysical techniques. For example, seismology has demonstrated that the earthquake belts of the world demarcate the plate boundaries and that intermediate and deep seismic foci define the dip of subduction zones; the study of rock magnetism has defined the magnetic anomaly patterns of the oceans; and paleomagnetism has charted the drift of continents through geologic time. Seismic reflection profiling has revolutionized scientific ideas about the deep structure of the continents: major thrusts, such as the Wind River thrust in Wyoming and the Moine thrust in northwestern Scotland, can be seen on the profiles to extend from the surface to the Moho at about 35-kilometres depth; the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States must have been pushed at least 260 kilometres westward to their present position on a major thrust plane that now lies at about 15 kilometres depth; the thick crust of Tibet can be shown to consist of a stack of major thrust units; the shape and structure of continental margins against such oceans as the Atlantic and the Pacific are beautifully illustrated on the profiles; and the detailed structure of entire sedimentary basins can be studied in the search for oil reservoirs.\nStructural geology deals with the geometric relationships of rocks and geologic features in general. The scope of structural geology is vast, ranging in size from submicroscopic lattice defects in crystals to mountain belts and plate boundaries.\nTypes of faulting in tectonic earthquakesIn normal and reverse faulting, rock masses slip vertically past each other. In strike-slip faulting, the rocks slip past each other horizontally. Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, Inc.\nStructures may be divided into two broad classes: the primary structures that were acquired in the genesis of a rock mass and the secondary structures that result from later deformation of the primary structures. Most layered rocks (sedimentary rocks, some lava flows, and pyroclastic deposits) were deposited initially as nearly horizontal layers. Rocks that were initially horizontal may be deformed later by folding and may be displaced along fractures. If displacement has occurred and the rocks on the two sides of the fracture have moved in opposite directions from each other, the fracture is termed a fault; if displacement has not occurred, the fracture is called a joint. It is clear that faults and joints are secondary structures; i.e., their relative age is younger than the rocks that they intersect, but their age may be only slightly younger. Many joints in igneous rocks, for example, were produced by contraction when the rocks cooled. On the other hand, some fractures in rocks, including igneous rocks, are related to weathering processes and expansion associated with removal of overlying load. These will have been produced long after the rocks were formed. The faults and joints referred to above are brittle structures that form as discrete fractures within otherwise undeformed rocks in cool upper levels of the crust. In contrast, ductile structures result from permanent changes throughout a wide body of deformed rock at higher temperatures and pressures in deeper crustal levels. Such structures include folds and cleavage in slate belts, foliation in gneisses, and mineral lineation in metamorphic rocks.\nThe methods of structural geology are diverse. At the smallest scale, lattice defects and dislocations in crystals can be studied in images enlarged several thousand times with transmission electron microscopes. Many structures can be examined microscopically, using the same general techniques employed in petrology, in which sections of rock mounted on glass slides are ground very thin and are then examined by transmitted light with polarizing microscopes. Of course, some structures can be studied in hand specimens, which were preferably oriented when collected in the field.\nOn a large scale, the techniques of field geology are employed. These include the preparation of geologic maps that show the areal distribution of geologic units selected for representation on the map. They also include the plotting of the orientation of such structural features as faults, joints, cleavage, small folds, and the attitude of beds with respect to three-dimensional space. A common objective is to interpret the structure at some depth below the surface. It is possible to infer with some degree of accuracy the structure beneath the surface by using information available at the surface. If geologic information from drill holes or mine openings is available, however, the configuration of rocks in the subsurface commonly may be interpreted with much greater assurance as compared with interpretations involving projection to depth based largely on information obtained at the surface. Vertical graphic sections are widely used to show the configuration of rocks beneath the surface. Balancing cross sections is an important technique in thrust belts. The lengths of individual thrust slices are added up and the total restored length is compared with the present length of the section and thus the percentage of shortening across the thrust belt can be calculated. In addition, contour maps that portray the elevation of particular layers with respect to sea level or some other datum are widely used, as are contour maps that represent thickness variations.\nStrain analysis is another important technique of structural geology. Strain is change in shape; for example, by measuring the elliptical shape of deformed ooliths or concretions that must originally have been circular, it is possible to make a quantitative analysis of the strain patterns in deformed sediments. Other useful kinds of strain markers are deformed fossils, conglomerate pebbles, and vesicles. A long-term aim of such analysis is to determine the strain variations across entire segments of mountain belts. This information is expected to help geologists understand the mechanisms involved in the formation of such belts.\nA combination of structural and geophysical methods are generally used to conduct field studies of the large-scale tectonic features mentioned below. Field work enables the mapping of the structures at the surface, and geophysical methods involving the study of seismic activity, magnetism, and gravity make possible the determination of the subsurface structures.\nThe processes that affect geologic structures rarely can be observed directly. The nature of the deforming forces and the manner in which the Earth\u2019s materials deform under stress can be studied experimentally and theoretically, however, thus providing insight into the forces of nature. One form of laboratory experimentation involves the deformation of small, cylindrical specimens of rocks under very high pressures. Other experimental methods include the use of scale models of folds and faults consisting of soft, layered materials, in which the objective is to simulate the behaviour of real strata that have undergone deformation on a larger scale over much longer time.\nSome experiments measure the main physical variables that control rock deformation\u2014namely, temperature, pressure, deformation rate, and the presence of fluids such as water. These variables are responsible for changing the rheology of rocks from rigid and brittle at or near the Earth\u2019s surface to weak and ductile at great depths. Thus, experimental studies aim to define the conditions under which deformation occurs throughout the Earth\u2019s crust.\nThe subject of tectonics is concerned with the Earth\u2019s large-scale structural features. It forms a multidisciplinary framework for interrelating many other geologic disciplines, and thus it provides an integrated understanding of large-scale processes that have shaped the development of our planet. These structural features include mid-oceanic rifts; transform faults in the oceans; intracontinental rifts, as in the East African Rift System and on the Tibetan Highlands; wrench faults (e.g., the San Andreas Fault in California) that may extend hundreds of kilometres; sedimentary basins (oil potential); thrusts, such as the Main Central thrust in the Himalayas, that measure more than 2,000 kilometres long; ophiolite complexes; passive continental margins, as around the Atlantic Ocean; active continental margins, as around the Pacific Ocean; trench systems at the mouth of subduction zones; granitic batholiths (e.g., those in Sierra Nevada and Peru) that may be as long as 1,000 kilometres; sutures between collided continental blocks; and complete sections of mountain belts, such as the Andes, the Rockies, the Alps, the Himalayas, the Urals, and the Appalachians-Caledonians. Viewed as a whole, the study of these large-scale features encompasses the geology of plate tectonics and of mountain building at the margins of or within continents.\ncrustal generation and destructionThree-dimensional diagram showing crustal generation and destruction according to the theory of plate tectonics; included are the three kinds of plate boundaries\u2014divergent, convergent (or collision), and strike-slip (or transform). Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, Inc.\nVolcanology is the science of volcanoes and deals with their structure, petrology, and origin. It is also concerned with the contribution of volcanoes to the development of the Earth\u2019s crust, with their role as contributors to the atmosphere and hydrosphere and to the balance of chemical elements in the Earth\u2019s crust, and with the relationships of volcanoes to certain forms of metallic ore deposits.\nMayon VolcanoThe 1984 eruption of Mayon Volcano, Luzon, Philippines. C.G. Newhall/U.S. Geological Survey\nMany of the problems of volcanology are closely related to those of the origin of oceans and continents. Most of the volcanoes of the world are aligned along or close to the major plate boundaries, in particular the mid-oceanic ridges and active continental margins (e.g., the \u201cRing of Fire\u201d around the Pacific Ocean). A few volcanoes occur within oceanic plates (e.g., along the Hawaiian chain); these are interpreted as the tracks of plumes (ascending jets of partially molten mantle material) that formed when such a plate moved over hot spots fixed in the mantle.\nOne of the principal reasons for studying volcanoes and volcanic products is that the atmosphere and hydrosphere are believed to be largely derived from volcanic emanations, modified by biological processes. Much of the water present at the Earth\u2019s surface, which has aggregated mostly in the oceans but to a lesser extent in glaciers, streams, lakes, and groundwater, probably has emerged gradually from the Earth\u2019s interior by means of volcanoes, beginning very early in the Earth\u2019s history. The principal components of air\u2014nitrogen and oxygen\u2014probably have been derived through modification of ammonia and carbon dioxide emitted by volcanoes. Emissions of vapours and gases from volcanoes are an aspect of the degassing of the Earth\u2019s interior. Although the degassing processes that affect the Earth were probably much more vigorous when it was newly formed about 4,600,000,000 years ago, it is interesting to consider that the degassing processes are still at work. Their scale, however, is vastly reduced compared with their former intensity.\nThe study of volcanoes is dependent on a variety of techniques. The petrologic polarizing microscope is used for classifying lava types and for tracing their general mineralogical history. The X-ray fluorescence spectrometer provides a tool for making chemical analyses of rocks that are important for understanding the chemistry of a wide variety of volcanic products (e.g., ashes, pumice, scoriae, and bombs) and of the magmas that give rise to them. Some lavas are enriched or depleted in certain isotopic ratios that can be determined with a mass spectrometer. Analyses of gases from volcanoes and of hot springs in volcanic regions provide information about the late stages of volcanic activity. These late stages are characterized by the emission of volatile materials, including sulfurous gases. Many commercially valuable ore deposits have formed through the influence of hydrothermal volcanic solutions.\nVolcanoes may pose a serious hazard to human life and property, as borne out by the destruction wrought by the eruptions of Mount Vesuvius (79 ce), Krakatoa (1883), Mount Pel\u00e9e (1902), and Mount Saint Helens (1980), to mention only a few. Because of this, much attention has been devoted to forecasting volcanic outbursts. In 1959 researchers monitored activity leading up to the eruption of Kilauea in Hawaii. Using seismographs, they detected swarms of earthquake tremors for several months prior to the eruption, noting a sharp increase in the number and intensity of small quakes shortly before the outpouring of lava. Tracking such tremors, which are generated by the upward movement of magma from the asthenosphere, has proved to be an effective means of determining the onset of eruptions and is now widely used for prediction purposes. Some volcanoes inflate when rising molten rock fills their magma chambers, and in such cases tiltmeters can be employed to detect a change in angle of the slope before eruption. Other methods of predicting violent volcanic activity involve the use of laser beams to check for changes in slope, temperature monitors, gas detectors, and instruments sensitive to variations in magnetic and gravity fields. Permanent volcano observatories have been established at some of the world\u2019s most active sites (e.g., Kilauea, Mount Etna, and Mount Saint Helens) to ensure early warning.\nNext page Study of surface features and processes\nEarth sciences: Geologic sciences\nThe oldest known treatise on rocks and minerals is the De lapidibus (\u201cOn Stones\u201d) of the Greek philosopher Theophrastus(c. 372\u2013c. 287 bce).

White blood cells carry out their defense activities by ingesting foreign materials and cellular debris, by destroying infectious agents and cancer cells, or by producing antibodies. Although white cells are found in the circulation, most occur outside the circulation, within tissues, where they fight infections; the few in the bloodstream are in transit from one site to another. White cells are highly differentiated for their specialized functions, and they do not undergo cell division (mitosis) in the bloodstream; however, some retain the capability of mitosis.\nLearn more about blood.\nWhat are the major classes of white blood cells?\nOn the basis of their appearance under a light microscope, white cells are grouped into three major classes\u2014lymphocytes, granulocytes, and monocytes\u2014each of which carries out somewhat different functions. Lymphocytes, which are further divided into B cells and T cells, are responsible for the specific recognition of foreign agents and their subsequent removal from the host. Granulocytes, the most numerous of the white cells, rid the body of large pathogenic organisms such as protozoans or helminths and are also key mediators of allergy and other forms of inflammation. Monocytes, which constitute between 4 and 8 percent of the total number of white blood cells in the blood, move from the blood to sites of infection, where they differentiate further into macrophages.\nRead more about lymphocytes.\nRead more about granulocytes.\nWhat is a healthy white blood cell count?\nA healthy adult human has between 4,500 and 11,000 white blood cells per cubic millimeter of blood. Fluctuations in white cell number occur during the day; lower values are obtained during rest and higher values during exercise. An abnormal increase in the number of white cells is known as leukocytosis, whereas an abnormal decrease in number is known as leukopenia. White cell count may increase in response to intense physical exertion, convulsions, acute emotional reactions, pain, pregnancy, labour, and certain disease states, such as infections and intoxications. The count may decrease in response to certain types of infections or drugs or in association with certain conditions, such as chronic anemia, malnutrition, or anaphylaxis. In general, newborns have a high white blood cell count that gradually falls to the adult level during childhood.\nFind out more about leukocytosis.\nFind out more about leukopenia.\nA healthy adult human has between 4,500 and 11,000 white blood cells per cubic millimetre of blood.

Dr. Candler Ballard/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (Image Number: 6048)\nblood: White blood cells (leukocytes)\nWhite blood cells (leukocytes), unlike red cells, are nucleated and independently motile. Highly differentiated for their specialized functions, they do not undergo cell division (mitosis) in the bloodstream, but some retain the capability of mitosis. As a group they are involved in the body\u2019s\u2026\nAlthough white cells are found in the circulation, most occur outside the circulation, within tissues, where they fight infections; the few in the bloodstream are in transit from one site to another. As living cells, their survival depends on their continuous production of energy. The chemical pathways utilized are more complex than those of red blood cells and are similar to those of other tissue cells. White cells, containing a nucleus and able to produce ribonucleic acid (RNA), can synthesize protein. White cells are highly differentiated for their specialized functions, and they do not undergo cell division (mitosis) in the bloodstream; however, some retain the capability of mitosis. On the basis of their appearance under a light microscope, white cells are grouped into three major classes\u2014lymphocytes, granulocytes, and monocytes\u2014each of which carries out somewhat different functions.\nLymphocytes, which are further divided into B cells and T cells, are responsible for the specific recognition of foreign agents and their subsequent removal from the host. B lymphocytes secrete antibodies, which are proteins that bind to foreign microorganisms in body tissues and mediate their destruction. Typically, T cells recognize virally infected or cancerous cells and destroy them, or they serve as helper cells to assist the production of antibody by B cells. Also included in this group are natural killer (NK) cells, so named for their inherent ability to kill a variety of target cells. In a healthy person, about 25 to 33 percent of white blood cells are lymphocytes.\nHuman lymphocyte (phase-contrast microphotograph). Manfred Kage/Peter Arnold\nGranulocytes, the most numerous of the white cells, rid the body of large pathogenic organisms such as protozoans or helminths and are also key mediators of allergy and other forms of inflammation. These cells contain many cytoplasmic granules, or secretory vesicles, that harbour potent chemicals important in immune responses. They also have multilobed nuclei, and because of this they are often called polymorphonuclear cells. On the basis of how their granules take up dye in the laboratory, granulocytes are subdivided into three categories: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. The most numerous of the granulocytes\u2014making up 50 to 80 percent of all white cells\u2014are neutrophils. They are often one of the first cell types to arrive at a site of infection, where they engulf and destroy the infectious microorganisms through a process called phagocytosis. Eosinophils and basophils, as well as the tissue cells called mast cells, typically arrive later. The granules of basophils and of the closely related mast cells contain a number of chemicals, including histamine and leukotrienes, that are important in inducing allergic inflammatory responses. Eosinophils destroy parasites and also help to modulate inflammatory responses.\nMRSA; neutrophilFour methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria (purple) being engulfed by neutrophils (blue), which are a type of human white blood cell. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\nMonocytes, which constitute between 4 and 8 percent of the total number of white blood cells in the blood, move from the blood to sites of infection, where they differentiate further into macrophages. These cells are scavengers that phagocytose whole or killed microorganisms and are therefore effective at direct destruction of pathogens and cleanup of cellular debris from sites of infection. Neutrophils and macrophages are the main phagocytic cells of the body, but macrophages are much larger and longer-lived than neutrophils. Some macrophages are important as antigen-presenting cells, cells that phagocytose and degrade microbes and present portions of these organisms to T lymphocytes, thereby activating the specific acquired immune response.\nTime-lapse photography of a macrophage (the light-coloured, globular structure) consuming bacteria. Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, Inc.\nSpecific types of cells are associated with different illnesses and reflect the special function of that cell type in body defense. In general, newborns have a high white blood cell count that gradually falls to the adult level during childhood. An exception is the lymphocyte count, which is low at birth, reaches its highest levels in the first four years of life, and thereafter falls gradually to a stable adult level.

        "raw_content": "/ Small Business Tips / 5 steps to building and launching a new product\n5 steps to building and launching a new product\nStarting a business and launching a new product involves trial and error, and 100 per cent dedication.\nFrom identifying exactly what your customers need to nailing down your company name, you\u2019ll encounter many obstacles.\nAnd while you can never truly know how your new product will be received in the marketplace, there are certain steps you can take to increase your chances for success.\nHere are five steps to successfully launch a new product:\nStep 1: Research your product\nMany entrepreneurs make the mistake of falling in love with a product or an idea and fail to be objective.\nWhen researching your product, it\u2019s important to not overlook or ignore the feedback you have found. While you may love your product the way it is, the customer may see it differently to you.\nBefore releasing your product into the marketplace, you need to ask the hard questions to discover whether or not your product is ready to be launched.\nOnce you have asked yourself the hard questions, you must listen to the answers, even if they\u2019re not what you want to hear.\nStep 2: Research the marketplace\nOnce you know you have a unique product offering, you need to determine whether there is a market for it.\nThis is especially the case if you have created a niche product. Ask yourself; does the market have a place for your new product?\nAlthough market research can be time consuming, it will provide you with valuable information that will guide you during the launch of your new product.\nMarket research will also allow you to narrow down your target audience and improve your chances for a successful launch.\nStep 3: Implement a marketing strategy\nSuccessfully launching a product requires a well thought out marketing strategy.\nOnce your target audience has been identified, you need to start developing a plan for how to reach them.\nLook at the different advertising and communication channels available and decide on which ones will best reach your target audience.\nIs your target market on LinkedIn or Instagram? Depending on which one you use, your strategy will vary greatly. It\u2019s key to reach the people who will not only be purchasing your product, but also using the platforms you are advertising on.\nStep 4: Be unique\nIf you can create a memorable marketing campaign that your target audience can relate to and get excited about, then you\u2019re on the right track.\nAvoid generic marketing campaigns if you really want to catch people\u2019s attention and separate yourself from competitors.\nStep 5: Continue the conversation and listen to feedback\nThe work does not end once your product launch is over. You need to continue the conversation with current and potential customers about your product.\nListen to what customers are saying about your product, and share positive stories with the public.\nContinue to seek feedback from your customers and welcome the positive as well as the negative feedback. Stay on top of your social media channels that were the most successful in gaining customers.\nWhile there is no tried and true formula for launching a new product successfully, by following the five steps outlined above you can substantially improve your likelihood of success.\nhttps://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/8-steps-to-creating-and-launching-profitable-digital-products.html\nhttps://tallyfy.com/launching-a-new-product/",

Daalder Wednesday, March 17, 2004\nTARA MCKELVEY, senior editor, The American Prospect: What effect will the Spanish elections have on Bush?\nIVO DAALDER: Bush had a very, very close relationship with Aznar\u2014as underscored by the fact that when he made his first presidential trip to Europe, his first stop was Madrid. He used to point to Aznar as a way to justify what he was doing in terms of foreign policy. He\u2019d say, more or less, \u201cHere\u2019s a man who supports me, even though 90 percent of his population is against what we\u2019re doing in Iraq. What a strong, principled leader.\u201d But the fact that 90 percent of the people did not support Aznar led to his downfall. So the defeat of one of the staunchest members of the \u201ccoalition of the willing\u201d is a major defeat for George Bush. The Spanish election was a referendum not only on Aznar but on Bush as well. They both lost.\nMCKELVEY: What will happen to the Bush administration\u2019s plans for Iraq when (or if?) Spain withdraws its troops from that country?\nDAALDER: First, it\u2019s not clear whether or not Spain will withdraw its troops. It would take astute American diplomacy to internationalize the foreign presence in Iraq, but Zapatero has indicated that the Spanish government would continue its support in that scenario. Second, if Madrid does withdraw its troops, the impact will be marginal at best. The Spanish troops make up just one percent of the total troops that are there. The important issue is the political one\u2014not the military one.\nRead the full interview at The American Prospect Online\nAmerica\u2019s Dangerous Aversion to Conflict\nErdo\u011fan\u2019s Obama Agenda\nBig Bets and Black Swans: Foreign Policy Challenges for President Obama\u2019s Second Term",

Allen said Gov. Phil Scott's idea to require a statewide health insurance plan for teachers is an assault on collective bargaining in the state. Lawmakers and the governor are at odds over the best way to save money on health insurance for teachers.(Photo11: Wilson Ring/AP)\nThe head of Vermont's largest teachers' union said Tuesday that Republican Gov. Phil Scott's insistence on a statewide health insurance plan for teachers is really an assault on collective bargaining in the state.\nIn a Statehouse news conference, Martha Allen, the president of the Vermont Chapter of the National Education Association, said the governor last week rejected a plan that was passed by the state Senate that would have saved the same amount of money in health insurance costs as the governor's proposal without affecting collective bargaining.\n\"The governor and his allies see this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take power away from working people in the state and in particular to take power away from working women, the vast majority of my fellow members,\" said Allen, a school librarian from Canaan who leads the 14,000-member union.\nRELATED: The story behind the $26M teacher health idea\nGov. Scott presses lawmakers for health plan\nDemocrats counter Gov. Scott's $26M savings plan\nGovernor: Statewide teacher health plan would save $26M\nAllen and other labor leaders said Scott's plan was akin to efforts in other states, including Wisconsin, to lessen the ability of unions to negotiate on behalf of their members.\n\"This looks an awful lot like Scott Walker's work to me,\" Allen said, referring to the Republican governor of Wisconsin who since taking office in 2010 effectively ended collective bargaining for most public workers there and has continued to back measures that reduce the influence of unions.\nScott spokeswoman Rebecca Kelley said Tuesday the governor's plan does not hurt collective bargaining but does ensure property tax savings for Vermont residents.\n\"His plan maximizes the benefit of this savings opportunity for taxpayers while ensuring teachers are protected, and allows for bargaining by school employees' unions, who would negotiate with the State \u2014 or another entity,\" she said in an email. \"With those protections in place, it is clear the governor respects and supports teachers and their rights to collectively bargain.\"\nThe dispute is about the best way to take advantage of savings from new health insurance plans that will be offered to the state's teachers beginning in January that have lower premium costs but higher out-of-pocket expenses.\nScott says his plan will ensure the state's property tax payers will see their bills reduced by an estimated $26 million, including $13 million this year. His plan requires that teachers negotiate health care benefits statewide.\nDemocrats have countered with a plan they say would save the same of money while preserving collective bargaining.\nThe Legislature had hoped to recess for the year the weekend of May 6, but the two sides have been unable to reach an agreement on the health insurance issue.\nOn Monday and Tuesday, Legislative leaders were huddled in meetings at the Statehouse. Lawmakers are due back on Wednesday.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/news/politics/2017/05/17/vermont-teachers-governors-health-plan-assault-unions/326708001/",

        "raw_content": "The First Test of Full Surrender\nMany Christians want more from their faith than to sit in the pew and hear someone else tell them how good it is to be used by God! However, to exercise the faith of God we need to step out into the deep and take a risk. Many people have been inspired by the possibilities of going deeper with God and when they ask what the price is, the answer is simple: Full surrender. Many preachers use various phrases to explain this experience, but the main objective is to fulfil the conditions of Romans 12:1, and to lay down one\u2019s life before the Lord. \u2018Therefore, I urge you\u2026to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God\u2019 (Romans 12:1).\nUnconditional surrender to the Lord means living for Him, giving up one\u2019s own hopes and dreams, and asking Him to live His life through us. Many Christians have come to the Lord and prayed, \u201cI surrender all\u2026I will serve You. I will follow wherever you lead!\u201d However, to prove the sincerity of that prayer, the Lord will send His first test to find if we are serious. The first test of full surrender will be different for each person, but in essence the Lord will ask for something in our lives that will cost us. It could be money, a job, a hobby, an attitude, a friendship, a relationship or any other thing that is special to us. The point is this: We won\u2019t want to give it up and our love for the Lord will be tested by our choice. Will we obey Him, or do we love this thing more than Him?\nWhen the Lord asks us to lay something down, He does not tell us why. It is a test of faith! He is expecting us to believe that He is a good God and He only asks us to lay something down that in the end will be harmful to us and our call. Some people have likened giving up something for God like an investment. When the Lord tells us to give something up, it is hard because it seems like a good investment. But at a later date after we have obeyed, the \u2018spiritual markets\u2019 plummet and we realise it was a bad investment after all. Our obedience shielded us from its fall or collapse!\nWhen the Lord speaks, if we behave like Abraham and go to the altar of the Lord and lay down what He has asked, the Lord will bless us. We will have passed the first test of full surrender and many other tests and blessings will be prepared for us in the future. However, if we are like Jonah and run away from the Lord, we will enter in the storms of life without Him. We may be saved, but we have lied to the Lord and our empty vow will haunt our future.\nThose who have promised to surrender all to the Lord and later reject the call of God fall into the enemy\u2019s snare. King Saul was called, anointed and appointed. He prophesied and led the Kingdom of Israel, but when He was forced to choose God\u2019s will or his own, He rejected God and God then rejected him. This led him to a road which was further away from the Lord and in the end he was completely lost in sin and self. \u2018But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul and a distressing spirit from the Lord troubled him\u2019 (1 Samuel 16:14).\nPeople that reject God\u2019s will have always paid a great price for a life of sin and selfishness. The sinful person sometimes has everything outwardly, but they cannot foster that which belongs to God within them. Only God can restore one\u2019s soul and spirit. Only God can release peace and heavenly joy.\nKing Saul had the Kingdom of Israel, but he was tormented within and without. Meanwhile David had very little, but he was anointed and received God\u2019s peace and power. Before King Saul died, he understood all that he had lost because of his rebellion to God. King Saul acknowledged that he had lost the call and the Kingdom. He said to David, \u201cI know indeed that you shall surely be King and that the Kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand!\u201d (1 Samuel 24:20). We can only guess if King Saul thought as he died, \u201cWhat if?\u201d We don\u2019t have to be like him. Finally, David received all that King Saul had rejected and this obedient man took the Kingdom of Israel to its greatest heights so far. David was not a perfect man of God, but he was a man after God\u2019s own heart.\nThe truth is that we all give everything in the end. Our decisions become the highway, or even the prison which shapes our lives. If we fill our lives with things outside of God\u2019s will, we shall become imprisoned to and by them. They will guide our lives and lead us far from the destiny that God had for us. In the end, we will look back and say, \u201cMy choices cost me everything!\u201d If this is true for everyone, why not pay the price for something eternal? Why not pay the price to be in God\u2019s will? Why not give up all for a reward which will echo in eternity? Why not state like Ruth, \u201cWherever you go, I will go\u201d (Ruth 1:16).",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Mersad On May 1st, 2018\nScore one for the good guys. A researcher from BrilliantIT was recently able to figure out how infected computers would connect to EITest's command and control server, and using that information, was able to bring down their entire network.\nIf you haven't heard of EITest before, the true significance of that statement might not be registering.\nEITest first appeared in 2011. In its original incarnation, it was little more than an annoyance. It was a collection of compromised servers used to direct web traffic to poisoned websites, where the owners could infect unsuspecting users with their homegrown malware.\nIn 2013, EITest's owners got savvy, relentlessly grew their network to more than 52,000 compromised machines and started renting their network out to hackers around the world to drive traffic to their poisoned websites. This unleashed a torrent of wildly destructive malware. Ever since, it's been a thorn in the side of IT professionals everywhere.\nUsing the crack discovered by BrilliantIT, researchers were able to redirect all traffic to a sinkhole, effectively shutting the network down altogether.\nSince then, it appears that the hackers have made one halfhearted attempt to regain control of their network, and then apparently gave up on the idea.\nWhile this is undeniably good news, EITest isn't the only traffic distribution network on the Dark Web, and even if the hackers have given up on the idea of recovering access to their old network, there's nothing stopping them from building a whole new one. That's not to undercut the significance of the victory here, but rather, merely to point out that it's a temporary win and reprieve, at best. They'll be back. They always come back.\nGood news is rare on the security front, and when it is found, we should all take a moment to celebrate. Kudos to the team at BrilliantIT!",

        "title": "Horse Betting Terms Explained",
        "raw_content": "Whether it's called jargon, parlance or racetrack cliche, the set of terms thrown around in racing can be confusing for the casual racing fan. In this piece, we'll decode some of the more common horse racing language, which can be essential to a better understanding of the sport. So whether you prefer conventional bets or exotics, wheels or boxes, be sure to use the right terminology when you go racing.\nHorse Racing Wagering Glossary\nYou'll also want to know how blinkers, Lasix, front wraps, and dogs can impact your handicapping. Without further ado, here's our list of essential betting and racing terms:\nAllowance Race: Allowance races are a step above claiming races, but do not offer the purses or prestige of stakes races. The races often feature conditions restricting the field to runners such as \"non-winners of one other than maiden or claiming event.\"\nBase bet: The amount a player bets on an exotic bet. For example, an exacta is typically offered for a $2 minimum, but a confident and/or deep-pocketed player may bet for a base of $50 or $100.\nBlinkers/Blinders: A standard piece of racing equipment that features cups attached to a mask designed to limit a horse's vision. Because a horse has wide-set eyes and panoramic vision, they can often be distracted by visuals such as fans and other horses. A runner donning blinkers for the first time will often show improved speed and focus, while a horse shedding blinkers will often become a more relaxed runner in the early stages of a race.\nBoxed: The term used to cover all combinations of runners used in an exacta, trifecta or superfecta wager. For example, a boxed exacta using the 3-horse and 6-horse would cover both 6-3 and 3-6 in the first and second place positions. In mathemetical terms, a box covers all permutations of the horses used in a bet.\nColt: A three year-old male horse. All races listed as \"Derbys\" consist only of three year-old colts.\nClaiming race: A race where all the runners in the field may be purchased for a fixed price by any licensed trainer or owner. Called \"selling\" races in Europe, claiming races makeup up about 70% of all races run in North America and range in price from $4000 to $100,000. All runners in the field are offered for the same price making them an efficient way to ensure evenly-matched competition.\nClocker's Report: Information that is usually published for a purchase price by professionals who clock morning workouts\nDistaff: A race - usually a stakes event - held for female runners such as the Breeders' Cup Distaff.\nDogs Up: An expression usually denoted as (d) in the workouts of a horse working over the turf course. \"Dogs\" simply indicate the presence of cones on the turf course used to preserve parts of the course. A work with dogs up is noteable because it generally means the time will be slower due to a wider trip around the track.\nDouble: A bet that was traditionally referred to as the \"Daily Double\" because at one time it was offered on the first two and last two races only. Now offered on any two consecutive races at most North American tracks, the object remains the same: to pick the winner of two consecutive races using desired combinations. The minimum bet amount for a double is typically $2.\nExacta: A simple and popular wager where the bettor must select the first and second-place finishers of a race in exact order.\nExotic Bet: Any wager that is not a win, place or show bet. Exotics include exactas, trifectas, superfectas, the pick 3, pick 4, pick 6, etc.\nFilly: A three or four year-old female horse\nFurlong: An expression of distance used in North America, Europe and Australia that is equivalent to an eighth of a mile. Classic races, such as the Kentucky Derby, are run at the 10-furlong, or mile and one quarter distance. Horse players studying workouts generally prefer to see a runner travel each furlong worked in 12 seconds or less.\nFractions: The timed, internal splits of a race that are displayed on the track's video board during the running. Fractional times for the opening quarter mile, half mile, six-furlongs and one mile are useful to determine the pace being established by the front-runners.\nFront wraps: Bandage applied to the front forelegs of a horse and noted in the Daily Racing Form and other handicapping guides.\nGelding: A castrated male horse. Famous geldings include all-time greats such as John Henry, and two-time Breeders' Cup Mile winner Wise Dan. A horse that is a first-time gelding is denoted by \"G\" in the Daily Racing Form and can be a successful betting angle.\nHorizontal wager: An exotic bet that takes place in a single race such as the exacta, trifecta, superfecta or Super Hi-Five\nJuvenile: A two year-old horse. The Breeders' Cup Juvenile, Juvenile Fillies, Juvenile Turf and Juvenile Fillies Turf all include this term.\nLasix: A diuretic and anti-bleeder medication that is legally administered to North American horses, but banned in Europe. Most North American runners perform on Lasix with the \"L\" appearing in most programs and emboldened when administered for the first time. While used to alleviate bleeding through the nostrils, Lasix are also thought to be performance-enhancing by some bettors.\nMaiden Claiming Race: A race where all horses are non-winners and are available for designated purchase price by a licensed trainer or owner\nMaiden Special Weight: A race where all horses are non-winners, but are not for sale. These races typically feature the best lightly-raced or unraced runners competing for a more lucrative purse.\nMulti-Race Exotic: All exotic bets that extend into multiple races such as the pick 3, pick 4 and pick 6\nPace: The rapidity with which a race is run by the front-runners based on the fractions they set. The axiom \"pace makes the race\" is a popular one at the track and rightfully so as early speed horses allowed to set moderate or slow fractions are typically difficult to run down. Conversely, come-from-behind horses are aided when the front-runners pressure one another into fast, contested early fractions.\nParimutuel Wagering: The system of betting used by all North American tracks where total wagering dollars minus takeout percentage are divided among winning players in the form of payouts. In pairmutuel wagering, bettors are really playing against one another rather than the house.\nPick 3,4,5 and 6 wager: Extremely popular multi-race bets that require the bettor to select the winners of consecutive races. Typically offered as a dollar minimum bet, players can use multiple horses to enhance their chances of winning. The cost of each bet can be calculated by multiplying the base bet amount by the number of horses used in each leg of the bet.\nPool: The total amount of wagering dollars collected on a specific bet in parimutuel wagering\nQuinella: An outdated bet still offered at some tracks. The bettor must select the first and second-place finishers regardless of order.\nRestricted: Race conditions are often restricted to certain types of horses. For example, races at Santa Anita and Del Mar are often restricted to horses bred in the state of California.\nStraight bet: The opposite of a boxed play, a straight bet is where the player wagers an exotic bet without using multiple combinations. For example, if a bettor had a strong conviction that the 5-horse will win a race and the 4-horse will run second, he might make bet a \"straight exacta\" 5-4, allowing him to play the bet for a higher based bet.\nSuper Hi Five: A jackpot style bet offered at many tracks - usually just once a day - where players must select the top five finishers in order. If no one hits the bet, the pool carries over to the next racing day.\nSuperfecta: Another popular and lucrative bet where players must select the top four finishers of a race in order.\nTake-out percentage: A pre-determined amount collected from each parimutuel pool and kept by the host track as revenue. Players are well-advised to stay away from bets and tracks that have a higher take-out percentage.\nTrifecta: A very popular, and sometimes lucrative bet where the player is challenged to select the top three finishers of a race in order. The trifecta can be boxed, wheeled or played straight, and is frequently offered as a 50-cent minimum bet.\nVertical Wager: See multi-race exotic\nWheel: A popular and useful betting strategy where a bettor can isolate a particular \"leg\" or \"rung\" of the bet to include a limited number of runners while \"wheeling\" or using more runners in subsequent legs or rungs. For example, a bettor making a trifecta wager who is confident the 7-horse will run second or third, but not win, might make the following partial wheels: 3,5,8 with 7 with 3,5,8 and 3,5,8 with 3,5,8 with 7. In this example the bettor has isolated the 7, while using more combinations in the other two rungs of the trifecta.",

        "raw_content": "Daniel Farke on Germany, fitness levels and Wolfsburg\nWith Norwich City's pre-season tour of Germany approaching it's climax, canaries.co.uk caught up with Head Coach Daniel Farke.\nHere he talks about the atmosphere in the City dressing room, how the players are coping with the heat and double sessions and the final tour match against Wolfsburg on Thursday evening.\nDF on Wednesday's recovery day, following the match with Union Berlin...\n\"To be honest, we kept the intensity down in the morning. For me it was session of high load but for the lads, it was a session of low intensity so I could join in most parts of the session.\n\"It was just slow jogging and we played some boxes for the lads who played nearly 90 minutes yesterday. We also played some head-tennis and some of the other lads had a bit more intensity to do but it was a pretty relaxed session and it was necessary after many days in a row with double sessions.\n\"Sometimes you have to calm down to give the body a chance to adapt - for that, I think it was good.\n\"It was the first afternoon off. The lads were able to recover a little bit and they had some time in order to lay in the sun and have a short swim together and speak about some other topics.\n\"It's quite important for the group and for the togetherness, especially for the new lads to talk a bit about their private things, their family, their surroundings. It's quite important for the togetherness that in the evening we had a little funny event. All these things are quite important to do during a training camp.\"\nDF on the pre-season camp so far..\n\"We have brilliant conditions. The hotel is very nice, the pitches are good and the weather is outstanding. The attitude, commitment and togetherness of the lads is good. We are working very hard on the training pitch - we had some really good tests and some tough tests but we were there with good performances and were pretty competitive.\n\"We had a brilliant win against Paderborn after being down at half-time and also I think a more than solid performance against Union Berlin. We had two unlucky goals conceded and we could have easily won this game.\n\"The performances have been good, the mentality is good and the togetherness has increased. I'm very pleased at the moment.\"\nDF on the current fitness levels of his players...\n\"Most of the lads will be pretty much prepared because the first four weeks of pre-season were unbelievably tough. We had double sessions each and every day and we are in the fourth week and many, many lads were able to join in each and every minute on the pitch and during the training sessions also.\n\"For them, they are 100% prepared. For the next two weeks, it's still pre-season but we will focus a bit more on the detailed stuff and finding a starting eleven for Birmingham and also to calm the intensity down a bit so they are really fresh and highly motivated and greedy for the first game.\n\"I think most parts of the group is 100% ready - okay, there are some slight injury problems and there are some players in the rehab stage. They are working really, really hard and I hope to have them back pretty soon. The biggest part of our group will be 100% prepared.\"\nDF on how the new players have settled in...\n\"I know I've got a group of players who have been here over the last year that I can totally trust. For professional football, there is an outstanding atmosphere in the dressing room and before we signed the new players, we had many meetings with them and we spoke with people who knew them in order to know a bit more about their personality.\n\"For us, it was not just important about what they can offer on-the-pitch, also off-the-pitch. In personal terms, we signed some really outstanding characters and I knew it would be easy for them to be involved in our group and it's exactly like this.\n\"So, I think for this moment - normally in pre-season there is lots of competition and everyone is a bit nervous and it's important to have this - but for this moment we are there with a really good togetherness and that's quite important for the season as well.\"\nDF on how happy he is with the make-up of his squad...\n\"In general, a lot of business is done and we're happy with this. So there's always interest in football and there are some crazy things - I wouldn't say: 'Okay, there is a line under this transfer window.' It could be that there are one or two clubs interested in players who are already part of our group.\n\"It could be that one or two of our players will leave in the future. It could also easily be that we will have one or two new signings. But in general, I think most of the business is done and especially early in this pre-season, it's important that all the players can settle in and can adapt to our way of playing and this group and that's quite important.\n\"If we are able to be there with one or two details to strengthen the squad a bit, that would be perfect but there is not big pressure on us because I'm totally pleased with our group at the moment.\"\nDF on Thursday evening's final pre-season tour match against Wolfsburg...\n\"It will be a tough test, I think probably the toughest test of this pre-season. Wolfsburg are a massive club here in Germany, a few years ago they were German champions. They are normally fighting for Europe and have a massive sponsor in Volkswagen so they are able to sign really quality players.\n\"We know it's one step above Paderborn and Union Berlin but it's a game we are looking forward to. So we want to be there with a good performance and we want to be competitive. We are greedy to get the best result we can get - we know that it would be a big surprise but we won't win any point for the Championship which is more important.\n\"If it's just a draw or if we lose the game, it would be quite normal. I don't care so much about the result, I just want us to pretty brave and with a good performance and hopefully a good result.\"\nWolfsburg vs Norwich City on 19 Jul 18",

        "raw_content": "10 Cool Creepy Shows That You Can Stream Right Now\nGet ready for a night of binge-watching with the lights on.\nBY Aimee Dacanay for Spot.ph | Aug 9, 2016\nIMAGE A&E | giphy.com\n(SPOT.ph) There's nothing quite like curling up in bed with the lights off and watching a horror movie. It doesn't matter if you end up being paranoid or sleeping with the lights on for the next few days, as long as you get that momentary thrill that comes with watching something scary. From the paranormal to crime thrillers, we round up 10 creepy TV shows that you should marathon this weekend.\nThere's a very good reason why Stranger Things is all over your Facebook feed. It stars Winona Ryder as Joyce, a single mother who launches an investigation after her son mysteriously goes missing. As she and the police search for answers, they unravel a series of paranormal events that begin to affect their small Indiana town. Set in 1983, Stranger Things is a sci-fi horror that's also peppered with clever, nostalgic nods to the decade, including Goonies, Nightmare on Elm Street, and John Hughes' teen movies.\nWatch it on: HBO Go\nMurder-mystery stories may not have ghosts or zombies, but they have something even more terrifying than the supernatural they could happen to anyone, including you. This is exactly why HBO's new mini-series is so unnerving. This eight-part production from the geniuses behind The Wire revolves around the complex murder case of a Pakistani-American college student named Nasir Khan (Riz Ahmed). What begins as a night of partying with a woman turns horrific when he finds her brutally stabbed to death the next morning with no recollection of what happened.\nWatch it on: iflix\nGot a whole weekend to yourself? It's the perfect excuse to binge-watch a '90s TV classic. (Yes, all nine seasons!) The X-Files revolves around two FBI agents (David Duchovny and\u00c2Gillian Anderson) who investigate unsolved cases that involve the paranormal. Think ghosts, extraterrestrials, and unsettling murders. Plus, there's always that will-they-or-won't-they dynamic between Mulder and Scully that will have you hooked.\nThis horror series is a prequel to the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock classic, Psycho, depicting the lives of Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore) and his mother, Norma (Vera Farmiga). Audiences get to watch Norman's disturbing descent into madness while Norma struggles with her intense paranoia and jealousy over her son.\nYes, there are already six seasons to American Horror Story, but you don't need to watch every single season to understand the story. Instead, this show is an anthology series with seasons that cover a single storyline and a different set of characters (played by the same cast). For instance, one season would focus on the staff and guests of a haunted hotel. Another season would revolve around the patients and staff of an asylum for the criminally insane. Either way, you're in for a creepy and sinister ride.\nWatch it on: Netflix and iflix\nThis series puts a twist on familiar literary characters like Dracula and Dorian Gray by exploring their intriguing origin stories. Set in Victorian London, this psychological thriller also features a set of original characters played by\u00c2Eva Green, Josh Hartnett, Helen McCrory, and Timothy Dalton. If you love your classic literature and Victorian Era frights, this show is right up your alley.\nFrom horror master Guillermo del Toro comes The Strain, a TV series based on the novel trilogy that he co-wrote with Chuck Hogan. This gory thriller tells the story of Dr. Ephraim Goodweather who is called to investigate a mysterious plane crash that killed everyone on board. It turns out to be linked to a viral outbreak that has similarities to an ancient strain of vampirism.\nDon't be fooled by its satirical themes; Black Mirror can and does get very dark and chilling as it explores our modern-day gadget addiction. The anthology series originally aired in the U.K. with episodes that featured names like Jon Hamm, Domhnall Gleeson, Hayley Atwell, and Rupert Everett. Netflix eventually picked up the series for a third season with 12 episodes, set to air later this year. For now, you can check out the seven episodes uploaded on the streaming site.\nIf you've never seen The Fall, then you've never seen the usually charming Jamie Dornan this creepy and macabre. In this psychological thriller, Dornan plays Paul, a family man leading a double life a serial killer terrorizing women living in Belfast. Gillian Anderson plays police superintendent Stella Gibson, who will do anything to stop a cold-blooded killer.\nA global cataclysm called the \"Sudden Departure\" inexplicably and simultaneously makes 140 million people around the globe disappear without a trace.\u00c2Intense grief has turned many away from religion, with creepy and rather disturbing cults emerging in its place. And although the story primarily revolves around a family and the residents of a fictional New York town, this unpredictable drama is deeply unsettling, with themes that touch on faith, loss, and mortality.\nWhy Everyone Is Watching the Netflix Show Stranger Things",

The Action Plan is largely designed for carers in England, although there are measures that might impact positively on carers in other nations. Thousands of carers shared their experience to inform the development of this Action Plan, reflecting the strength of feeling among carers that much more support is needed.\nWhile many carers do encounter loneliness, there are many organisations and groups out there that offer a lot of support and chances for carers to socialise more when they can.\nHere we highlight some of the best.\n1 in 9 people in the workforce are caring for loved ones while juggling their work. Employers for Carers encourages carer-recognition in the workforce with e-learning modules and more.\nPortsmouth Carer's breaks cookery sessions\nPortsmouth Council now offers cookery classes for carers. For many carers food choices are an afterthought and time spent socialising has to be meticulously planned and justified.\nThe cookery sessions offer the chance to learn new skills with a quality break from their caring role.\nNeath Port Talbot's Connecting Carers Project\nTo lessen the impact of isolation and loneliness among carers Neath Port Talbot's Carers' Service now offer a sitting service and a carer connector.\nThe Sitting Service provides peace of mind to carers with a volunteer put in place to keep the cared for company while the carer is able to \"have a life of their own\" and a break form their caring role.\nThe Carer Connector works one-to-one with carers to support them in accessing anything and everything in their own community. This could be training, volunteering, leisure activities, or hobbies.\nCarers Time Bank in Central London\nFor lonely carers, a dearth of time is one of the biggest reasons for losing touch with friends and family or struggling to maintain hobbies and interests. The time bank can help carers socialise through volunteering for as few or as many hours as they can, getting the time back when they want to.\nCurrently, over 114 carers volunteer as part of the scheme for as few or as many hours as they want, at a time that suits their needs. For every hour \u2018donated\u2019, carers can earn a time credit that can be used to claim back a session from another member.\nCarer Support Groups Northern Ireland\nCarers Northern Ireland facilitates a number of Carers Support Groups in the Northern Health and Social Care Trust.\nWhen you're looking after someone it can often feel like you're on your own. Joining a local support group can help to connect you with people who know what you're going through.\nCombatting loneliness in the workplace - TfL\nTransport for London\u2019s Carers Staff Network is helping to reduce isolation and loneliness by recognising the challenges that carers face.\n\u201cOur Carers Staff Network Group provides a forum for employees to meet fellow carers at TfL and it gives them the opportunity to talk to each other, be supported and share advice.\n\"With many carers feeling isolated, we\u2019ve found that the group has a huge impact on those who are part of it because they get the chance to meet other people who understand what they are going through. It makes them feel less alone.\u201d\nLoneliness among carers\nOne in four carers in our 2017 State of Caring Report told us they hadn't had a day off caring in more than five years.\nWe feel it's time to do something about carers' access to funding and services for breaks.\nMore and more of us are stepping in to provide care and support to loved ones and doing so for more hours every week. Without access to breaks, carers can quickly reach breaking point, unable to look after our own health, keep up relationships with friends and family or have the time we need to ourselves.\n4 in 10 (40%) carers responding to our State of Caring survey have not had a break in over a year. Carers who had not had a break in a year or more reported a deterioration in their health, both mentally (73%) and physically (65%).\nThey told us that they aren\u2019t accessing breaks because of:\nThe cost of paying for a break\nNot being able to find appropriate support on offer\nThe unwillingness of the people we care for to accept support from others\nLack of trust in the quality of care available.\nIncreasing funding for carers\u2019 breaks is a key part of the change needed to support people to care without putting their own lives on hold. This must be part of addressing the wider crisis in funding of social care that has led to support being cut for many and growing levels of unmet care and support needs.\nGiven the enormous value of unpaid care provided by the UK\u2019s 6.5 million carers, worth \u00a3132 billion each year \u2013 having some time away from caring to spend time with a partner, get to a medical appointment or just get a full night\u2019s sleep surely isn\u2019t too much to ask.\nSign up below if you'd like to help us do more to ensure access to breaks is better for all carers.\n{rsform 115}\nOpen letter campaign\nState of Caring 2018\nCarers Rights Day: find out about your rights",

        "raw_content": "chevy History\nChevrolet (in the US also informally Chevy) - a brand of American automobiles, produced and sold the same name economically independent division of the corporation General Motors.\nChevrolet is among the most popular brands of the concern GM: about 2.6 million cars were sold in 2007\nHeadquartered in Warren, a suburb north of Detroit (Michigan).\nAt the dawn of the automotive industry often new models of cars bore the names of their creators. It happened with the Chevrolet brand. Swiss Louis Joseph Chevrolet (1878-1941) was a famous racing driver and mechanic, but was never the owner of the company, which bore his name.\nLouis Chevrolet was one of seven children of the poor watchmaker in the Swiss town of La Chaux-de-Fond. At that time, when he was 10 years old, his family, in search of better lives, moved to France, where a clever boy was able to finish high school, then got a job in a car company \"Mors\". There he became interested in cars all his life, and became an official race driver this company. Virtually none of the sports of that time did not do without participation of \"Morse\". Behind the wheel of one of which is always seated Louis Chevrolet. Having good skills in the automotive and sports, he, along with his brothers Arthur and Gaston, he went to Canada, and in 1900 - in the United States. Here he began his activities as a representative in the United States of the French Automobile \"De Dion Bouton\". However, it more than the automotive business, took the race. For five consecutive years, Louis participated in all local competitions, while in 1905 has not achieved the right to speak to an American millionaire Vanderbilt Cup. But here he was not lucky - in the seventh round of its \"Fiat\" crashed. However bold and decisive driver drew the attention of industry bigwigs America. Among them was William Durant, brought together by the time a number of different automotive companies under the guise of \"General Motors\". In 1909, Durant invited Louis Chevrolet and his brother Arthur to become a proprietary drivers \"Buick\". Those gladly agreed. But the place was only one, and because competition was arranged for the brothers. In road racing defeated Louis, then the star of his glory beginning to rise at an unprecedented rate. In 1909 he wins just three important victories and 11 takes pride of place in the competition for the Vanderbilt Cup.\nBefore World War I he was a cohort of the best racers of America.\nLouis Joseph Chevrolet. Enterprising W. Durant decided to do business on behalf of the famous athlete. In 1911, he proposed to Louis's time to leave the race and to start producing his own car, and he agreed to it. new car project developed by experts of \"General Motors\", William Durant has invested a lot of money into the project, and Chevrolet has given the car its name, already well-known to most Americans. It served as a guarantee of future success.\nThe birth of Chevrolet Motor Cars in Detroit in 1911, had not the best period of the existence of General Motors.\nIts head - William Durant - put it on the brink of bankruptcy, hastily buying up loss-making car company. In addition, he began to lose money on the stock exchange speculation in securities, why was forced to go cap in hand to the bankers. Those promised to invest in General Motors $ 15 million, but with one condition - William Durant should resign as its leader. However, he did not leave hope again take the reins of the company in their own hands. To achieve this goal it was necessary, and Louis Chevrolet - known at the time racer.\nForming a new company and flooding the market with cheap and popular car brand Chevrolet, William Durant has earned a lot of money and decided, no less, to join car giant General Motors to the tiny Chevrolet. And he did it! William Durant was able to buy a controlling stake in General Motors and sat back in his chair Chairman of the Board. Company Chevrolet became part of the group, and its cars have become the main products of the auto giant.\nSome said that he made the first car brand Chevrolet almost alone, while others claimed that he had developed a general concept of the new car. Such was the case, anyway, but the first Chevrolet Classic-Six was born on October 3, 1911. It was a traditional American four-seater with a 6-cylinder engine producing 30 horsepower. But the price of the first-born - $ 2,500 - was unreasonable for the buyer, and so he had no success. The popular then Ford-T was worth five times cheaper.\nW. Durant realized that the key to success lies not in the luxurious car, but in its simplicity and cheapness. He walked away from the production of luxury models and began to produce low-cost 4-cylinder cars - open cars \"Baby\" and sport \"Royal Mail\". In 1916, on their base was established Chevrolet-490, which brought the company great fame. These cheap, but reliable machines have become as popular as \"Fords\". They were 4-cylinder engines of 2.8 liters. The machine was so successful, that was produced until 1922, and gave birth to no less famous \"Superior\" model, which existed until 1927. On the Chevrolet-490 was a simple 3-speed gearbox, the two rigid axle suspended on leaf springs. As in the \"Ford\", everything was simplified to the limit, but these machines have electric lights and a starter, which was then a rarity, even for expensive cars. It is with the 490-th model and started Chevrolet company specialized in cheap and simple cars that brought her worldwide fame.\nChevi 11\n1928 The appearance of the model \"International Six\", also known under the symbol \"AV\".\n1933 appearance of \"Master\" model.\n1949 The emergence of new models of \"Special\" and \"De Luxe\".\n1950 The company started to use in their models of automatic transmissions.\n1953 Launch of the US first production sports car \"Corvette\". In the mid 50's the company's sales amounted to 50 percent of the US market.\n1958 has introduced a new \"Biscayne\" model, \"Bel Air\" and \"Impala\".\n1960 The company prepared a compact \"Corvair\" model.\n1961 First show \"Chevi 11\" model.\n1963 Start of production \"Chevelle\" model.\n1965 Edition \"Malibu\" model.\n1966 Issue sport \"Camaro\" model.\n1969 appearance of \"Monte Carlo\" model.\n1970 Start of manufacture smaller cars. The emergence of \"Vega\" model.\n1974 Start of production of \"Monza\".\n1979 The company began to produce front-wheel drive cars with transversely located powertrains. The first model is \"Sitation\" became in this series.\n1981 Presentation of \"Cavallier\" model.\n1984 Start of manufacture of the new generation model of \"Corvette\".\n1987 The first show of \"Lumina\" model.\nHistory of Chevrolet Dat\nGeneral Motors Chevrolet has consistently adhered to the strategy of positioning as an affordable brand for developed markets and as a mass brand - developing.\nIn September 2002, the South Korean firm Daewoo officially came under the jurisdiction of General Motors, changing its name to GM Daewoo Auto & Technology Co. Today the brand Daewoo exists only because of the cars produced in Uzbekistan at the factory Uz-Daewoo, which has remained outside of the newly created company. All the other cars of the Korean company is now produced under the brand Chevrolet Dat.\nThus, the history of cars Chevrolet Aveo, Lacetti, Evanda - is the story of the South Korean company Daewoo Motor Co., Ltd.\nIn 1972, the Korean government legislated right to engage in car production for the four companies - Kia, Hyundai Motor, Asia Motors and Shinjin. Then merged companies Kia and Asia Motors.\nnew Korean-American joint venture under the name of Daewoo Motors was established in 1983. Its founders - Daewoo Corporation and Concern General Motors. The first model of the brand has become a Le Mans, built on the basis of the first generation Opel Kadett E. In the local market the car known as Daewoo Racer. In Russia first appeared in 1993, immediately becoming the most popular in the domestic passenger car market among the new cars.\nPretty young dynamic company Daewoo until the 1990s began working with General Motors, and in 1992 became a separate company within the industrial group Daewoo.\nIn 1995 the company Daewoo has appeared on the German market with models of small class Nexia and Espero - average. Daewoo Nexia (previously sold under the name Le Mans) is the latest generation Opel Kadett E. After another modernization in March 1995, the model was renamed the Nexia (Cielo for Korea). And soon the assembly was transferred to Daewoo affiliates in various countries: Uz-Daewoo - in Uzbekistan, \"Krasny Aksay\" - in Russia and Rodae - in Romania.\nThe front-drive hatchback Tico \u00abmini\u00bb class for urban travel on the basis of Suzuki Alto was made in South Korea since 1988, since 1996 - in Uzbekistan.\nBy early 1996, Daewoo has built three major technical centers: in Worthing (United Kingdom), near Munich (Germany) and Pulyane (Korea). The main technical manager of projects is Ulrich Betz (Ulrich Bez), former senior manager of BMW.\nSince 1993, the sedan produced Prince and more comfortable version Brougham on the basis laid off Opel Senator car. Espero sedan was designed by Bertone based aggregates model Opel Ascona and first introduced in 1993.\nIn 1994 it was released model Espero, a body which has been designed in design studio Bertone chassis opelevskie Ascona model. The company has taken this year's third place in Korea to produce cars. the task of becoming the leader of the Korean autostructure was set.\nIn late 1997, the company introduced at the IAA last three models - Lanos, Nubira and Leganza. Lanos car was developed and put into production within 30 months and cost the company $ 420 million. This is the first private company to Daewoo construction.\nversion Lanos \u00abAssol\" was presented in Russia. Lanos was to replace the previously released Nexia model, borrowed from her suspension and steering. Daewoo Nubira - own development offices in England, design - I.D.E.A.\nWork on the model Nubira (in Korean \"travel the world\") began in 1993 and lasted 32 months. The design was developed in Worthing, and the first model, modified in the future, was presented at the end of 1994. This is a golf class car with a transverse engine and front wheel drive, come to Espero shift (produced in the Russian version is called \"Orion\").\nModel Leganza - an attempt to produce a model of the business class. This is the most comfortable and equipped with the company's car. The basis of the design of this model is taken car body Opel Senator, modified Italian company Italdesign specialists (Russian analogue of the Korean model - \"Condor\").\nAfter the Asian financial crisis of 1998, the company Daewoo has faced enormous difficulties. However, the South Korean government refused the idea to nationalize the company. For the right to purchase its struggling largest corporations in the world. As a result, GM's Daewoo has been absorbed, and the cars produced in Korea, have changed not only the brand, but also the names.\nFour new models under the name Chevrolet Dat: Aveo, Lacetti, Evanda and Rezzo, received the European and Russian markets, are in great demand among Russian consumers, and demand, experts predict that promises to grow steadily.\nChevrolet Aveo has been created yet within the company under the name Daewoo Daewoo Kalos (Kalos in Greek \"beautiful\"). However, the concern General Motors has decided to change the name.\nAnother vehicle of the brand Chevrolet Evanda previously was called Daewoo Magus. Magus was conceived as a successor to the fairly widespread we Leganza model. Since the funding has not been spoiled by the engineers, we had to go through an evolutionary, that is, to improve the already existing platform Leganza given the fact that the new car is a bit larger. Styling was commissioned by the famous studio Italdesign, in recent years, is responsible for the design of many cars of the brand Daewoo.\nChevrolet Lacetti in fact a symbiosis of the two models of Daewoo - Lacetti and Nubira last generation. The model with a body \"versatile\" is just Nubira, a sedan and five-door hatchback - Lacetti.\nIn 2005, it begins mass production of the new model generation Matiz - Chevrolet Spark, the official European premiere of which took place in early 2005 in the framework of the Geneva Motor Show. The appearance of a new generation of Chevrolet Spark developed studio Italdesign. From Spark predecessor differ mainly intricate headlights, chrome d\u00e9cor and an entirely new interior.\nCooperation Chevrolet DAT and the parent company has gradually expanded, and \"native Korean 'cars in the automaker's lineup is not soon will. One of these cars would be a crossover Captiva, the machine on which the platform will be sold around the world, and a roomy sedan Epica.\nBel Air (1950-1976)\nBeretta (1987-1996)\nBiscayne (1958-1972)\nC / K (1960-1999)\nCamaro (1967- present)\nCaprice (1965-1996)\nChevelle (1964-1977)\nChevette (1976-1987)\nColorado (2004 - present)\nCorsica (1987-2000)\nCorvair (1960-1969)\nCorvette (1953 - present)\nCruze (2009 - present)\nDeluxe (1941-1952)\nDel Ray (1958)\nHHR (2005 - present)\nImpala (1958-1985, 1994-2000, 2000 - present)\nLagoon (Laguna)\nLanos (Lanos)\nMako Shark (1961)\nNiva (2002 - present)\nPrisma [8]\nSSR (2004 - 2006)\nSuburban (1936 - present)\nVega (1971-1977)\nViva (2004-2008)\nVenture (1997-2005)",

Many times, houses that look well-maintained actually have underlying problems such as roof damage, A/C problems, mold, asbestos, etc. which could end up costing you thousands of dollars.\nUnfortunately, not getting a professional home inspection means you\u2019ll be responsible for any damages you encounter once you\u2019ve closed on the property.

It is common knowledge that a home needs to be appraised before it can be sold, but there are other reasons why an appraisal is conducted. Even an appraisal has been done recently, it is vital to get an appraisal when you are selling or buying a home. The housing market changes are dependent on the popularity of a neighborhood or demographic and they are constantly fluctuating. The majority of banks will lend to a buyer without an appraisal of the property.\nWhen buying or selling a property, the person a buy or seller will get to know the least is the property appraiser Miami. However, the property appraiser Miami will play a very important role in this process. What the appraiser decides can impact whether the buy gets the home they want or if the seller can get rid of the house they do not want. The appraiser has a list of items he\u2019s looking out for and usually takes about an hour to conduct the appraisal.\nFinding a Property Appraiser\nWhen looking for a property appraiser, it is always a good idea to look their online reviews and reputation in the community. An appraiser who values properties too low or too high will become apparent when a home stays on the marker for months or sells for a lot less than other homes in the neighborhood. A good appraiser is usually not difficult to spot because their reputation will be very telling of the kind of work they do. Finding an honest and trustworthy property appraiser can be done by asking for recommendations for friends and family as well as doing research on casafix\u2019s expansive directory. Let the pro\u2019s at casafix help you find a reliable appraiser in Miami.\nIn some states, licensing for all appraising is mandatory. However, most states only require appraisers to be licensed or certified for mortgage loans 250,000 dollars and over. Residential appraisers are able to value family properties, small apartments, and commercial properties. State certified and licensed appraisers are obligated to follow the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).\nIt is nearly impossible to get a financial intuition to lend the buyer money for a home without an appraisal. A bank does not want to get stuck with a property they lent 500,000 dollars for but can only be sold for 75,000 dollars. Appraisals are around for a valid reason. Appraisals are usually done after a price has been negotiated and the contract has been signed. It benefits everyone for the appraisal to be as close to the agreed upon price as possible. If the prices do not match up, it does not necessarily mean the buyer is stuck purchasing a house at an overly inflated house. But, if they aren\u2019t careful about what they sign, that is exactly what can happen. The contract you sign should include the possibility of renegotiation or terminating the contract if the appraisal comes back bellow asking price.\nAppraisals often get confused with inspections even though they aren\u2019t the same. An appraiser focuses on the value of the house while an inspector is looking for anything that is wrong and could be a problem. If the appraiser spots a defect in the home, they may request an additional inspection which does not mean that the two inspections are interchangeable. A home inspection for safety reasons does not take into account the market value of a home, as its main focus is the structures and systems within the home.\nGetting a House Appraised\nThe appraisal process can take anywhere between two weeks and one month. The appraiser looks uses the properties characteristics to decide its worth. Once the appraisal process starts, there is nothing the homeowner can do improve the outcome. It helps to prepare a list of recent repairs that have been done to the home. For example, if the home just had the water heater replaced it is a good idea to inform the property appraiser. Also, it is important to make the home look good so that the appraiser will be more likely to give a price on the high end of the price range. If you are looking for a property appraiser, a good place to start is casafix\u2019s directory.\nReal Estate Appraiser Miami\nRight before the economic recession of the early 2000\u2019s, when the value of homes had increased exponentially, property appraisers found themselves pressured to lie about the value of the homes they were appraising. This was done to ensure that the buyer would get the loan and the sale would be finalized. It may seem innocent enough, but what it actually means is that the buyer is overpaying for a house and will struggle to sell it later. Today, mortgage lenders have been cracking down on this, it happens less often. Even though this is less of a common occurrence, it is still important to be informed and cautious.\nAn appraisal should include all details of the home, similar properties that are within that neighborhood, and a description of the neighborhood. Similarities between properties include the number of bedrooms, square footage, number of bathrooms, year the house was built, and general style. There should also be an evaluation of the real estate market of the neighborhood, an estimate of how long the property would be on the market, and a description of any defects the property has that would devalue it.\nMany appraisers provide a fixed fee for the amount they charge for an appraisal; however, the neighborhood and size of your home will also have a direct impact on how much an appraisal will cost. Usually the home appraisal is paid for by the seller. The average cost of a complete property appraisal can begin at 300 dollars but some can be as high as several hundred dollars. A larger house will require more time and work to appraise than a small one. It can take more time and work to find comparable homes when appraising homes with features like a tennis court or swimming pool.\nChoose a trusted Miami Property Appraiser\nWhen looking to buy or sell a home, a property appraisal is a must. It can save a buyer from overpaying and a selling from letting a property go for under its market value. If you are looking to finance a mortgage, it would be almost impossible to do without a property appraisal. Finding a reliable property appraiser is an important factor in getting an accurate market price.\nOnce the property appraiser has begun the process, there is not much that the homeowner can do to make improve the results. This is why it is suggested that the homeowner take the time to make the home look its best before the process starts. When looking for a property appraiser, it is helpful to take reviews and reputation into consideration. Even though your interaction with the property appraiser Miami will be limited, they have a huge impact on the buyer or selling of your property. Finding a trusted professional can make all of the difference so take the time to do research carefully. A property appraiser Miami that does his job well will have a good reputation and respect from both buyers and sellers.",

        "raw_content": "Often called the N-word at school, this Nova Scotia student seeks to rid classroom of racism\nGrade 9 student Sarah Walters said she's often called the N-word at her Hammonds Plains, N.S., middle school. She and her mother say administrators aren't doing enough to combat the racist behaviour of some students.\nSarah Walters, a Grade 9 student at a school in Hammonds Plains, N.S., says she is often called the N-word\nSherri Borden Colley \u00b7 CBC News \u00b7 Posted: Mar 07, 2018 5:00 AM AT | Last Updated: March 7, 2018\nSarah Walters, a Grade 9 student at Madeline Symonds Middle School in Hammonds Plains, N.S., said she is often called the N-word by other students at the school. (Steve Lawrence/CBC)\nAs one of few black students among a sea of white faces, Sarah Walters does not feel like she belongs at Madeline Symonds Middle School in Hammonds Plains, N.S.\nThe 14-year-old Grade 9 student is biracial. And she said she's often called the N-word in the classroom and in the hallways at a school that's ironically named after the first black woman to graduate from the provincial teachers college in 1928.\nSarah is used to having the vile racial slur hurled her way. She said it started in Grade 3 when she was a student at nearby Hammonds Plains Elementary.\nOther black students, she said, are also targeted. Most of the current name-calling, she added, comes from white male students.\nAnd when she complains to teachers and the school administration, \"they don't really do much about it,\" she said in an interview.\n\"It doesn't make me feel good,\" she said. \"It just like upsets me.\"\nShe's hardly alone.\nOver a two-year period, officials at Nova Scotia's eight school boards recorded a total of 1,611 discriminatory incidents, 53 per cent of them involving racism. In the 2016-17 school year there were 851 instances of discrimination logged, a rise of 12 per cent from the year before.\nThe school is located in Hammonds Plains, near Halifax. (CBC)\nThe principal of Madeline Symonds said incidents are taken seriously, and the Halifax Regional School Board's senior diversity adviser said schools are required to respond with a range of consequences.\nBut Sarah's mother, Kristina Partington, who is white, said while she has pushed for something to be done about the slurs her daughter faces, there's been little change.\n\"I'm waiting for someone from the school system to stand up for African-Nova Scotians and to start \u2026 making this a more sensitive subject because I think racism in the school system is desensitized,\" she said.\n'She would be shocked'\nOther parents have also said they're unhappy with how the school has handled racist incidents. Andrella David said her daughter, also in Grade 9, has been called the N-word, and that black children are taunted at the school.\n\"If the late Madeline Symonds knew of the racial discrimination that took place behind the walls and in the classrooms of the school that bears her name, she would be shocked,\" David said in an email to CBC News.\n\"It seems racial slurs and stereotypes are welcomed at this school.\"\nDavid, who was herself racially profiled and wrongly accused of shoplifting at a Sobeys grocery store, said she has brought up some of the racism her daughter has faced over the years with local educators, but her concerns \"have always been swept under the rug.\"\nSarah's mother, Kristina Partington, said the school is not doing enough to stop racist incidents. (Steve Lawrence/CBC)\nSarah Walters counts herself as one about 20 of African descent in the school body of approximately 740 students at Madeline Symonds.\nThe latest incident, she said, happened last month. She and two white friends were putting up signs for their homemade candy grams when a boy walked into the class and said the N-word as he was walking by.\n\"I told the principal. I don't really know exactly what she did but she might have suspended him for one day,\" Sarah said.\nIn another incident at the school, she said a teacher told her and another black student that they had frizzy hair.\n\"We were all talking about what, like, what kind of hair we have and my friend said, 'We have curly hair,' and [the teacher] said, 'No, it's not curly, it's frizzy.'\"\nMore diversity needed in HRM teachers: board chair\nPartington said she had hoped the racial incidents would stop once Sarah started Grade 6 at middle school. She said they didn't. She recalled yet another incident when a boy called Sarah the N-word as they played a Scrabble game in class.\nThe teacher, she said, turned around and asked 'Who said that?' Sarah spoke and named the boy, her mother said.\n\"And the teacher looks at the student and says, 'Don't say that again,' and then continues with her class,\" Partington said in an interview. \"There's a problem there.\"\nThe school's principal is white but one of the two vice-principals is black, as is a student-support worker.\nThe principal of Madeline Symonds Middle School said the school follows the province's code of conduct. (Steve Lawrence/CBC)\nPrincipal Lynn Kazamel-Boudreau declined requests for an interview, saying it is inappropriate for her to discuss individual cases or confidential incident reports.\nHowever, in a written statement she said that Madeline Symonds Middle School uses the provincial school code of conduct policy to respond to all incidents at all times and takes each one seriously.\n\"The code of conduct outlines both consequences for inappropriate behaviours and proactive measures,\" Kazamel-Boudreau wrote.\n\"At MSMS, we combine both approaches and understand the importance of educating students about their choices and support them in making better decisions in the future.\"\nSchools required to track unacceptable behaviour\nPartington has complained more than once, and met with school administration and representatives from the school board and the Black Educators Association, but she said she has yet to see any changes within the school.\n\"We all send our children to school every day in hopes that they can have a safe healthy learning environment,\" she said. \"And that's not the case for Sarah, that's not the case for some of the kids going to this school.\"\nWendy Mackey is the Halifax Regional School Board's senior diversity advisor. (Wendy Mackey)\nWendy Mackey, the Halifax Regional School Board's senior diversity adviser, said when the incident starts at the school level, it's the principal that will work with students and their parents.\n\"And so if the child is being called a racial slur, well, that falls under racist behaviour within the code of conduct and racist behaviour includes using racial and cultural slurs.\"\nSchools are required to record and track incidents of unacceptable behaviour through PowerSchool, a provincial online student information database, and respond to these incidents with a range of consequences.\nNova Scotia's first black superintendent appointed to Tri-County School Board\n\"So if an incident is reported, it tells me that somebody paid attention to it, somebody acknowledged it, somebody named it and somebody followed the policy,\" Mackey said.\nThe board's diversity team is available to give advice to all principals, vice-principals and teachers, and to provide workshops following a racial incident.\n\"We are working continually to address all of these issues,\" Mackey said.\nSherri Borden Colley has been a reporter for more than 20 years.

        "raw_content": "UN: More children dying in Afghan violence\nKABUL, Afghanistan - The number of children killed and wounded in Afghanistan's war jumped by 34 percent last year as the Taliban stepped up attacks across the country and continued to lay thousands of roadside bombs, the United Nations said Saturday.\nOverall civilian casualties were up by 14 percent, reversing 2012's downward trend and making 2013 one of the deadliest years of the 12-year war for civilians, the U.N. Assistance Mission for Afghanistan said in a report.\nThe rising civilian toll underscores mounting levels of violence in Afghanistan. Taliban insurgents have ramped up attacks to try to gain ground and shake the Afghan government's confidence as international combat troops prepare to complete their withdrawal at the end of the year.\nThe U.N. report also noted an \"alarming\" new trend for 2013 - the increasing numbers of civilians being harmed in fighting between the Taliban and Afghan security forces.\nIt recorded a total of 962 battles in which civilians were harmed last year - an average rate of nearly 20 such battles every week - and said civilian casualties caused by such fighting rose by 43 percent over the previous year.\nIn terms of deaths and injuries, 2013 was also the worst year of the war for Afghan women and children, with most of the casualties caused by either stepping on or driving over roadside bombs or getting caught in fighting.\n\"It is the awful reality that most women and children were killed and injured in their daily lives - at home, on their way to school, working in the fields or traveling to a social event,\" said Georgette Gagnon, director of human rights for the U.N. mission, calling on all sides to work to protect civilians from harm.\nUNAMA said 561 children were killed and 1,195 were wounded in 2013, a rise of 34 percent in the combined number of casualties. Also last year, 235 women died and 511 were wounded, a rise of 36 percent in combined casualties. The breakdown for deaths and injuries for children in 2012 was not available.\nOn Saturday, another child was killed when a roadside bomb detonated near a high school in the city of Jalalabad. Eight other people were wounded, said Ahmad Zia Abdulzai, spokesman for the governor of Nengarhar province of which Jalalabad is the capital.\nThe U.N. reported that a total of 2,959 civilians were killed in the war and 5,656 were wounded last year.\nBy comparison, there were 2,768 civilian deaths and 4,821 civilians wounded in 2012, and 3,133 deaths and 4,706 wounded in 2011.\nThe report blamed insurgents for 74 percent of the civilian casualties. Afghan police and army were responsible for 8 percent of the casualties and international coalition forces for 3 percent, the report said, while 10 percent could not be blamed solely on either side and the responsibility for the remaining 5 percent was unknown.\nThe Taliban condemned the U.N. report, which a spokesman called American propaganda that was \"completely upside down\" in blaming the insurgency for most of the casualties.\n\"Very clearly there was an increase in our operations against the Afghan forces and foreign invaders, but also all our holy warriors were very careful to avoid civilian casualties,\" Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahadid said in a statement. He added that \"the majority of casualties among civilians are caused by foreign forces trying to get revenge.\"\nThe international military coalition, for its part, condemned the insurgents' \"continuing disregard\" for human life.\n\"The Taliban continue to attack mosques and health care facilities, they target schools by burning them down, emplacing IEDs (roadside bombs) near them and occupying them for insurgent activities,\" the coalition said in a statement\nAccording to the report, roadside bombs laid by pro-Taliban forces again caused most civilian casualties, accounting for 34 percent of deaths and injuries last year, while crossfire in battle accounted for 27 percent. Suicide attacks accounted for 15 percent of overall casualties, targeted attacks made up 14 percent and pro-government air raids were responsible for 2 percent. Unexploded ordnance detonations and \"other\" accounted for 4 percent each.\nInsurgent attacks against Islamic clerics and mosques tripled to 27 during 2013, causing the deaths of 18 people.\nThe sum total of 8,615 deaths and injuries in 2013 was the highest number of combined casualties since the U.N. began documenting them in 2009 after a sharp rise in violence.\nBut the deadliest year of the war was 2011, when 3,133 civilians died as the Taliban launched a fierce pushback with roadside bombs and other attacks against the increased number of international forces who wrested back much of the territory controlled by the insurgents.",

        "title": "SC Supreme Court Says No Pre-Trial Dismissals of CDV Charges",
        "raw_content": "Nearly everyone who contacts me about a recent CDV arrest wants the same thing - to have their case either dropped by the prosecutor or dismissed by the Court. Previously I have reviewed the \"no drop\" policy that prevents a prosecutor from just dropping a CDV case. In this article I am going to review the limitations placed on Magistrate, Municipal and CDV Courts to have the judge dismiss a CDV case prior to trial.\nThe facts I am going to be dismissing come from straight from the South Carolina Supreme Court in the case of State vs. Ramsey, 381 S.C. 375, 673 S.E.2d 428 (S.C. 2009).\nIn Ramsey the defendant was arrested in 2006 for 1st Degree Burglary and Criminal Domestic Violence. As customary for felony charges the defendant received a preliminary hearing for the burglary charge. A preliminary hearing is a probable cause hearing before a Magistrate to determine if it is more likely than not that the defendant is guilty of the offense.\nAt the preliminary hearing the Magistrate dismissed the burglary charge finding there was not enough evidence to allow the State to go forward.The defendant then filed a motion to dismiss the CDV case prior to trial. The Magistrate held a preliminary hearing and after finding there was not enough evidence to allow the case to go forward dismissed it.\nAfter the dismissal the prosecutors appealed - arguing that the Magistrate did not have the authority to dismiss a CDV case short of a trial. It is important to know that the State has the same ability to Appeal a CDV Dismissal (short of trial) as a Defendant does to appeal a CDV conviction (after a trial\\guilty plea). Double jeopardy does not apply in these circumstances.\nThe Supreme Court reversed the decision of the Magistrate in dismissing the case. The Court held that Magistrate Courts do not have the authority to dismiss CDV cases short of trial - and that if there wasn't enough evidence to convict the defendant the case should just have been tried on its merits. Nothing the Supreme Court said prevents Courts from finding someone not-guilty after a trial. The Court then re-opened the defendant's case and remanded it back for trial - three years after it was originally dismissed by the Court.\nThe holding in Ramsey is important for anyone who has been arrested for domestic violence in South Carolina. There are only a limited number of options presented to anyone arrested for CDV in South Carolina - and having the judge just dismiss the case short of trial isn't one of them.\nLexington Criminal Defense Attorney James Snell represents clients in challenging their CDV arrests.

        "raw_content": "Digitize Music with Electronic Musical Instruments\nMusic evokes a special feeling and a sense of connection in human beings. It brings forth a variety of feelings and helps express human emotions in a unique way. It could be a cheerful number that brings joy to you, a melancholic note that stirs up sadness in you, an eerie tone that draws you to a mystery or a beautiful melody that has a calming effect and brings you happiness.\nMusic transcends language and transports us to a different world. When you are distracted and unable to focus on your tasks at hand, playing some soft music can relax your mind and help your brain to concentrate. If you're stressed because of work load or overwhelmed by difficult family circumstance, a nice meditation music could bring you peace and relieve your stress. If you are in a party and want to dance with your friends, then upbeat songs will be your choice to bring the sense of celebration to the mix. If you want to connect to your inner self, then soothing instrumental music can come to your rescue.\nPeople connect to music in their own ways. Some like to listen to the words in songs and find the amazing connection they have to the lyrics. Others may enjoy listening to instrumental music \u2013 you don\u2019t need to know the language to cherish this kind of music. You can be form any part of the world speaking any vernacular and enjoy instrumental music composed by a musician anywhere in the world.\nMusical instruments have evolved over several thousands of years. The use of instruments for several purposes has been in vogue ever since the human civilizations came in to being. When human beings started forming groups to live in communities and began the early steps of creating ancient civilizations, crude and simple musical instruments are said to have been developed.\nThe speculation is that musical instruments probably came in existence somewhere between 37,000 to 67,000 years ago, although there is no definite way of chronicling this. The instruments in olden days have served several purposes from using the drums in religious rituals, making announcements etc. to using sounds from conch shells for initiating battles and war. Wind instruments like flute were also used in ancient civilizations. Some ancient civilizations have used trumpet like instruments in hunting or to gather people for social gatherings. The instruments were primarily made of animal bones, animal skin and wood.\nEach ancient culture across the world like Mespotamian, Indus valley, Egypial civilizations etc, had their own simultaneous evolution in the world of musical instruments which later spread across the other up and coming cultures. Although many instruments have evolved now from their original designs, many ancient instruments have lived on, like drums and flute. You can also find Didgeridoo, an ancient Australian aboriginal instrument, resembling a trumpet, used by indigenous people in Australia.\nWith the evolution of technology, the big leap in the field of musical instruments came in the form of electronic musical instruments. Just as in any other application, making the electronic version of the original musical instruments gave the instrument tremendous versatility. These instrument use electronic circuits to generate or modify music. After mid 1700s, electricity was used in musical instruments. The electric harpsichord that was invented in 1761 in France was one of the first instruments that served as the harbinger to electronic instruments of the future.\nThere is a deluge of electric/electronic music instruments out there in the marketplace now and it is a blessing for all the musicians to be able to use the original concepts of the past and use technology to suit the needs of the present and future. By making them the electronic versions of the original musical instruments, you can produce better sound quality and clarity, make instruments possibly lighter and smaller and also combine several instruments in to one like what you would see in a rhythm pad.\nElectric guitar is a stringed instrument like the traditional guitar. When the musician strums or plucks the strings on the guitar body, the vibration emanating from this is sent to an electrical component called pickup which converts the sound signal from the electric guitar to electric signal. This electric signal coming from the guitar is feeble. Therefore it is fed to an amplifier to strengthen the signal and this is fed to a loudspeaker which converts the electric signal back to audio signal for everyone to hear. The electrical signal from the electric guitar can be adjusted using electronic components for sound effects such as reverberation, distortion etc. Electric guitar has played a key role n the development of several musical genres such as electric blues, heavy metal etc.\nElectric guitar comes in several shapes and sizes to suit the musical needs and the choices of the artist.\nThe big difference between an acoustic guitar and an electric guitar is that electric guitar is made of solid wood while acoustic guitar is hollow. Some of the main components that make up the electric guitar are the body which is the broadest portion on the guitar that contains the bridge, the neck which houses the strings and is attached to the body on one end and head on the other, the head which has the string retainers and tuners, the frets which are thin metal pieces that run across the length of the fret board whose spacing depend on the length of the neck and strings and pickups. Pickups are most important parts of the guitar as they make the instrument an electric guitar. They pick up vibrations and convert them to electric signals.\nThere are many color options for neck and body color on the guitar. You can buy a full size electric guitar set for a beginner that comes with an electric guitar in a classic guitar design, amp and case along with a good placement for neck pickups. The amp typically includes an outlet for guitar ad microphone, comes with volume control, treble and base control. Some amps come equipped with headphone jack and overdrive and guitar packages arrive with strap for guitar and picks. Shorter scale versions are also available people with smaller hands. Some manufacturers also offer downloadable lessons and instructions for the avid learner.\nThe sound from piano has a charm that few instruments can replicate. A grand piano, while it looks elegant and is seen as a desired instrument for an aspiring pianist, is bulky and space consuming. The beautiful sounds from a traditional acoustic piano can be simulated by a digital version of the piano. The digital piano simulates an actual piano not only in the sounds it produces but also in the way it feels when the instrument is played. It has weighted keys just like a traditional piano and for people that love to see the shape akin to a upright piano or a traditional piano, they can find digital pianos with those options as well. It falls under the category of electronic keyboard where either samples from an actually piano or a synthesized emulation method is used for producing sounds. The sounds from the piano are amplified internally to boost the strength of the signal via an internal loud speaker which produces the desired audio output. Some people might feel that digital pianos might not fully replicate the traditional piano in all respects. However the advantages that these pianos offer over the acoustical pianos are many. As they are digital, these pianos do not need to be tuned like the traditional ones and you can modify their tuning to match tuning of another instrument. Volume control option in digital pianos can be used to adjust volume and you can even connect it to an amplifier or a public addressing system for large audience size in big venues. The cost of these is much less than traditional versions and they are typically smaller in size and lighter. So these kind of pianos offer the best values of traditional pianos while incorporating the needs of a technology driven current society.\nMany digital pianos also offer built in memory with a collection of songs and come with music books. There are song recorder options which will let the pianist play as well as record their music. Some digital pianos can also be connected to computers or mobile devices via USB adaptors for an amazing graphical user interface experience.\nThe biggest impact of digitization in the world of musical instruments probably happened in the percussion instruments arena. The digital alternative to the acoustic or traditional drum kit is a unique kind of sound synthesizer. The electronic percussion instrument or the electronic/digital drums comprise a sound module or a drum module which is digital and is called the brain of the drum kit. This module controls all other features of the drum kit and functions as the synthesizer for all kinds of drum sounds. Most of the digital drum kits offer the flexibility to play a variety of different drum styles. For example one can choose drum styles like rock, jazz and so on in order to suit the specific genre of music to be played. Some of the more advanced kits offer the capability to set up customized kits by selecting from the individual drum sound options available on the module. Most of the basic electronic drum kits offer the ability to tune individual drums, their volumes etc. You play the electronic drum kit by striking the drums with drum sticks or your hand just like how you would do in an acoustic drum kit. There are sensors in the digital drums which get triggered because of the drum stick action and they in turn trigger the production of corresponding drum sounds. The drum sounds emanating from the electronic drums are based off of the stored sample sounds from the original acoustical instrument. This makes the instrument sound just like the original. Trigger pads are the separate pieces of the electronic drum kit. There are typically 5 pieces in the set just like a traditional drum kit. Drum triggers have pickups just like the ones on electric guitar and they get activated when the trigger pads are struck.\nIn essence these drums are a boon to beginners \u2013 those who would like to try their hand at drums but may not be willing to play it loud for many reasons. This happens especially when people around the new drummers are prone to getting annoyed by additional noise or the house is not sound-proofed enough. The head phone option in the electronic drum kit also offers a head phone option where the drummer can just listen for himself or herself and hone their skills.\nThe digitization of the music instruments offers a great opportunity to improve the skills of current musicians and offers a unique platform for beginners as well.\nWelcome to the world of electronic instruments!",

Guests have found our location to be a great base for exploring the many wonderful historic towns and beautiful beaches.\nWe are close to Dinan with its 3km long ramparts, half-timbered houses, attractive port and cobbled streets filled with art galleries and craft shops and a weekly market. The stunning northern coast-line with its superb sandy beaches at St Briac, St Lunaire, St Cast and Cancale are all within a 30 to 40-minute drive. St Malo and Rennes are around 35 minutes\u2019 drive away. There are wonderful walks and cycle trails all around. The Rance river is close by and offers beautiful walks and a cycling path. Cycle, boat and canoe hire is also available nearby. Care and attention has gone into the styling of each room to provide accommodation that is equipped and furnished to a high standard, but above all else, comfortable.\nMarkets One of the pleasures of visiting France is to enjoy wandering through a traditional French market. And why not! The Market \u201cle marche\u201d, is an integral part of life in virtually all French towns and large villages, so much so that even today the market can be seen as a well-surviving part of France\u2019s historic heritage. Markets start early and finish by 13:00 so get there early. A comprehensive list of all local markets is at the back of this folder; however, our favourites are: Combourg \u2013 Monday morning Dinan \u2013 Thursday morning Dinard \u2013 Tuesday & Saturday morning Dol De Bretagne \u2013 Saturday morning Car Boot Sales \u2013 (Vide Greniers) These are very popular at weekends during the summer months, I can tell you what\u2019s on during your stay. Brittany Coast The coast of Brittany is very beautiful, with a perfect mix of white sandy beaches suitable for swimming, attractive rocky coves and pools to explore, and dramatic cliffs and rock formations to enjoy. Off the coast there are several islands that are also a pleasure to explore. Suggestions - Emerald coast (Cote d'Emeraude) is the name given to the coast around Dinard and Cancale in north-east Brittany. Dinard beach is very popular, as are the beaches around the Cap d'Erquy (north-west of Dinan) which are also in a very scenic setting. - The Cote de Granit Rose is at the north of the Cotes d'Armor region around Perros-Guirec, and Cap-Fr\u00e9hel. The beaches at Saint-Cast-le Guildo, between Cap-Frehel and Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer are very attractive and also have easy access to the lovely coast walk to Cap-Frehel itself. Main tourist attractions in Brittany - Mont St. Michel. (Actually just in Normandy) Fairy-tale like mediaeval abbey and city perched on an offshore rock, off the north-east coast of Brittany. A UNESCO world heritage site. One of the most visited tourist attractions in France. - St. Malo. Saint-Malo is a coastal city in Brittany, in France's northwest. Tall granite walls surround the old town, which was once a stronghold for privateers (pirates approved by the king). The Saint-Malo Cathedral, in the centre of the old town, is built in Romanesque and Gothic styles and features stained-glass windows depicting city history. - Dinard. Walking around Dinard, with its Belle \u00c9poque villas and stripy beach tents, is like taking a trip back to the 19th century. The most British of Brittany\u2019s resorts is popular with families who are attracted by its sandy beaches and coastal walks. Nearby St-Briac and St-Lunaire are also worth a visit. - Foug\u00e8res. The main reason to visit Foug\u00e8res is to see its magnificent castle, one of the finest fortresses in Europe, but this little town on the Brittany-Normandy border also has a lovely medieval district and a lively Saturday-morning market. - Vitr\u00e9. On the frontier between France and Brittany, Vitr\u00e9 was once one of the region\u2019s most important towns. Its 15th and 16th-century buildings rival Dinan for medieval quaintness and its fairy-tale castle will delight young and old. - Dinan. This medieval town is without doubt one of the most attractive and best preserved small towns in Brittany. With its 1.8 mile (3km)-long ramparts, half-timbered houses, attractive port and cobbled streets filled with art galleries and craft shops, it\u2019s worth a day of anyone\u2019s time.\n(2 pers.) 4 80 140 560\nOther deparmtents in the region Brittany",

        "raw_content": "Want to Master the SMB Market? Listen, Learn and Help Them Win\nMichael Conn\nBy Michael L. Conn, Senior Cloud Computing Strategist, Nerdio\nIn my role at Nerdio \u2013 a company that itself began as a managed service provider \u2013 I\u2019ve helped many MSPs succeed in one of today\u2019s hottest market segments: small and midsize businesses. SMBs are hungrier than ever for technologies previously available only to the enterprise crowd, and they have a huge range of digital services to choose from. Ideally, you\u2019ll be the one to deliver.\nHow do you cut through the noise and close more of those SMB sales?\nThe answer is simple: Speak directly to their real needs. Small but growing businesses face a unique set of challenges, from less working capital to scarce IT expertise. They are in dire need of a smarter, more strategic approach to resource utilization, not to mention a way to lower costs, complexity and risk. This is where their challenges become your big opportunity \u2014 if you can show how to outsource their IT needs using a variety of as-a-service options while reducing upfront costs, maximizing the value of existing technology investments and delivering better performance. When there is an internal IT team, they are of more use to the business helping to innovate and improve the customer experience than keeping the lights on. In other words, take their IT headaches off their plates so that they can get back to improving their businesses.\nA comprehensive approach will help you stand out from the crowd, accelerate new business acquisition and drive bigger successes. I\u2019ve walked MSPs through the following tactics to help them shorten their sales cycles from the typical 18 months to just six months or even less. If this sounds like something you\u2019re interested in doing yourselves, here are a few helpful talking points to get you started in selling better IT to SMB customers.\nTheir Challenge: Tedious, inefficient, piecemeal IT\nYour Solution: Centralized, comprehensive, flexible IT\nSMBs traditionally have taken a piecemeal approach to IT, largely because they didn\u2019t have any other option. Most are used to juggling a myriad of components from multiple different vendors, and it\u2019s a painful and tedious (and sometimes impossible) process to make the entire IT environment work cohesively.\nWith a full IT-as-a-service bundle, you can simplify while enhancing operational efficiency and resource utilization in a profound way. Tell your customers to say goodbye to managing a bunch of separate components and to stop worrying about hiring IT pros, or misusing the ones they have. No admin wants to spend all day patching servers and resetting passwords. Outsourcing both the maintenance and optimization of IT is a win. But remember, as service provider, you need to have\u2026\nTags: IT as a service, Nerdio, SMBs",

        "raw_content": "The restriction of the practice of Medicine to one class of men is but a fragment of the monarchy.\nBenjamin Rush, M.D., one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence\nSome years ago, I read an article in a scientific journal about the rise of what the author dubbed the \u201cPharmocracy,\u201d or the rule/control of society by Big Pharma, the big pharmaceutical companies. For many, I had been publishing a newsletter for my fellow chiropractors, that I call \u201cThe Harte of Chiropractic.\u201d Many times, I have made reference to the Pharmaceutical-Medical-Governmental, or the PMG, Complex.\nThink about it. The pharmaceutical corporations are, by far, the most profitable of all industries. They have special protection against profit liability for their most gangerous products. They are given exceedingly generous patent protections, after almost all the basic science research for their products has been done at public (taxpayers\u2019) expense. Their \u201cwatchdog\u201d is the FDA (Food and Drug Administration, who relies solely on research provided to them by the drug companies. The executives of the FDA and the drugs companies regularly migrate from one to the other. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) funnels its taxpayer-supported research to the drug companies for their profit. Medical schools are increasingly being funded by drug companies, doctors are given cash \u201cstipends\u201d while their prescription-writing habits are tracked by Big Pharma\u2019s computers. Every level of government has a \u201cpublic health\u201d department, which is really a \u201cpublic medicine\u201d department. Government (public) schools tell parents what to do with their kids\u2019 health care. There\u2019s even a \u201cSurgeon General.\u201d All the while, press releases from drug companies are printed, virtually word for word, in the media, as if it was actual news. And\u2026 everyone believes in the Next medical Miracle.\nAlong time ago, before the rise of Big Pharma and the AMA, there was choice, two competing schools of medicine, homeopathic and allopathic. (Allopathic means \u201cagainst disease,\u201d or fighting disease, basically making conditions in the body so miserable that even the germs don\u2019t want to be there. This is what we now, generically, refer to as \u201cMedicine.\u201d)\nMedicine has, over the years, developed a mythology that its advances have advanced life span. Frankly, most of that can easily be attributed to better nutrition and vastly improved public hygiene (cleaner food and water supplies, better sanitation, etc.) Perhaps the Nobel Prize for this should have gone to an Englishman, Edward Crapper. He invented the flush toilet.\nWith more and more sophisticated tools, more and more what looks like science, Medicine has sought to manipulate biological processes. They produce \u201cresults,\u201d but not cures. And, these cures come at a terrible price. They say \u201cThe Cure is right around the corner\u2026 a few more years\u2026 a few more billion dollars.\u201d And society believes.\nIs high tech high science? Not necessarily. The ultimate high tech is the Innate Intelligence contained in every living thing, that took you from one fertilized egg to between 25 and 40 quadrillion cells, all perfectly formed and functioning, unless there is interference. Chiropractors remove interference, to allow the ultimate high tech to do its thing called Health.\nWhen will society collectively open its eyes? When will all, or nearly all people come to realize thatr Health does not come from a bottle of pills or a surgeon\u2019s knife? (Health only comes from Above-down, Inside-out.) When will it be \u201cnormal\u201d to go to a chiropractor, and \u201cabnormal\u201d not to?\nI don\u2019t know the answer, but you can start with yourself, and your family and friends. EVERYONE with a spine and a nervous system needs regular, wellness chiropractic care to restore and maintain health.\nMarin Straight Chiropractoc",

Puss in Boots is getting his own movie. In it Antonio Banderas continues to voice the character and the movie will be a prequel, telling the tale of Puss\u2019s early adventures teamed up with Humpty Dumpty (voiced by Zach Galifianakis) and Kitty (voiced by Salma Hayek) in a quest to save the Goose who laid the Golden Eggs.\nYou won\u2019t see any of that in the first Puss in Boots trailer, but you will see Puss strutting his stuff.\nWatch the first trailer for Puss in Boots below or in HD on Apple. We\u2019ll talk afterwards.\nGiving Puss in Boots his own spin-off seemed like a good idea, back when the character first showed up in Shrek 2. Since then, like everything in the Shrek universe, he\u2019s sort of been ruined by the sequels. He even got fat in the last one. But the spin-off's coming anyway and it\u2019s going to make a lot of money because it\u2019ll probably contain at least one dance number. That's what these movies do.\nEven this first Puss in Boots trailer is really just sort of one, extended dance number. Granted there\u2019s no actual dancing, just a lot of preening set to a base-driven beat, but it\u2019s basically the same thing. It\u2019s hard to be optimistic about any of this. The future of animation, outside of the world of Pixar, is more likely to belong to movies like Rango.\nFor more on Puss in Boots, without all my negativity, visit it's page in our Blend Film Database.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u2192 Ensembles Roster \u2192 Jazz Ensembles \u2192 Bulgarian National Radio Big Band\nTHE BIG BAND is a magic formula in the world of Bulgarian pop music and jazz. The legendary pioneers Asen Ovcharov and Bozhidar Sakelarov dreamed of a big jazz band. The most popular band of that kind in the 1940\u2019s and 1950\u2019s in Bulgaria has a revealing name \u2013 the Optimists Jazz Band. Enthusiasm, youthful drive and love for a music regarded by most with great suspicion and considered to be second-rate \u2013 these were the things that strongly motivated the musicians to create a truly professional big band. And when the dream came true in 1960 under the roof of the Bulgarian National Radio, hardly anyone could guess that this orchestra would remain the only one of its kind in Bulgaria until the present day.\nThe Big Band of the Bulgarian National Radio started out with swing. This exuberant style has defined the character and image of the orchestra down the years. Fashions tend to be rather shifty in popular and light music and the orchestra has had to meet the challenge of the vagaries of fashion. But the musicians evidently feel best when they hear the familiar rhythm of swing, even though today the Big Band has musicians of several generations performing side by side. It does not matter that the youngest of today\u2019s musicians were not even born at the time when the orchestra won its first gold medal in Helsinki in 1962. The radio orchestra usually spend their days in a recording studio, since the programmes of the National Radio need a continual replenishment of songs and instrumental pieces. And yet, numerous audiences have fond memories of the Band\u2019s concert trips to Russia, Switzerland, Yugoslavia, and Germany, and experts have spared no praise for the Band\u2019s appearance at the prestigious Jazz Fair \u201889 in Zagreb and the Nishville \u201897 International Jazz Festival in Ni\u0161. There is hardly a performance, an enterprise or an event in the field of pop music in Bulgaria that has no relation, in one way or another, to the Bulgarian National Radio Big Band. The 30 years of existence of the internationally known Golden Orpheus Festival would have been unthinkable without the Band. The same goes for Pop-Song of the Year, the most popular TV contest in Bulgaria.\nA great number of musicians have been members of the Big Band in these 43 years \u2013 performers, composers, arrangers, singers \u2013 every one of them has given their contribution to the Band\u2019s success. When we talk about the Bulgarian National Radio Big Band, any attempt to enumerate these musicians would turn this contribution into a veritable encyclopaedia of Bulgarian pop music since the 1960\u2019s. And yet we cannot omit to mention those who have guided and led the Band in creating its unique image. Among them are the first conductors Jules Levy, Benzion Eliezer, Emil Georgiev, and particularly Milcho Leviev, whose splendid compositions and innovative vision brought the Band up to a level, which seemed utterly unthinkable beyond the Iron Curtain. The rest was done by Villy Kazassian. He was among the founders of the first band, though he started out as a pianist. Before long he was promoted to Junior Conductor and after Milcho Leviev emigrated to the USA, Mr. Kazassian took over. He was at the head of the Big Band of the Bulgarian National Radio for more than 30 years. Villy Kazassian is best known for his tremendous professionalism and artistic appearance.\nClassical music and evergreens alternate with original Bulgarian pieces in diverse styles. Singers Stefka Onikyan, Evelina Balcheva, Hilda Kazassian and Vasil Petrov are constantly present on the Band\u2019s concert bills. The phenomenal Bulgarian musician Teodosi Spasov, who plays the kaval (shepherd\u2019s flute), though usually performing solo or as part of very small combos, never misses a chance to play with the Bulgarian National Radio Big Band. All visiting artists have expressed their pleasure and satisfaction of performing with the Big Band. The eminent Hungarian pianist and composer George Vulcan said once: \u201cI was very pleasantly surprised when I heard this band again. I performed with it several years back, but now, today, I was simply not able to recognize them, their performance was so close to perfection.\u201d The main activity of the Big Band is recording for the radio. The repertoire of recorded musical pieces since the foundation of the band consists of more than 1,000 pop and jazz pieces by popular Bulgarian and foreign authors. Many of the band\u2019s concerts have been broadcasted live on TV.\nSince the 1998\u20131999 concert season, the Big Band has been directed by pianist and conductor Yanko Miladinov. Mr. Miladinov has refreshed the repertoire and brought new life into the staff by finding and employing young talents \u2013 singers and instrumentalists. Since 2001 the Big Band has participated every year in the International Jazz Festivals in Bankya and Bansko in Bulgaria.\nNatalie Cole and Bulgarian National Radio Big Band, Sofia Ladies Orchestra, Milano, Piazza Duomo\nBulgarian National Radio Big Band and Sofia Ladies Orchestra, Conductor Paolo Paroni, Milano, Piazza\nNatalie Cole and Bulgarian National Radio Big Band, Sofia Ladies Orchestra, Milano, Rehearsal\nLondon Festival of Bulgarian Culture - London Jazz Festival 2012 - Clapham Grand\nBulgarian National Radio Big Band and Sofia Ladies Orchestra, Conductor Paolo Paroni, Milano, Piazza Duomo",

It\u2019s heart wrenching.There\u2019s no love like the love of an animal. If it\u2019s not in your life, it\u2019s missing from your life.\u201d\nSo, Boyd decided to do something about it. After participating in the Roaring Fork Leadership Academy, he pitched a civic project called the Pet Friendly Housing Initiative, which ended up being one of five selected.\nIt starts with an online survey for tenants, landlords and others, at surveymonkey.com/r/PetFriendlyHousingSurvey \u2014 with a $100 White House Pizza gift certificate on the line for one randomly selected participant.\nBoyd and the rest of \u201cTeam Scratch and Sniff\u201d hope questions like, \u201cWould you be willing to pay more for pet friendly housing?\u201d or \u201cWhat factors have influenced your decision to allow or not allow pets?\u201d will shed some light on the situation.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very short and straightforward. It should take less than five minutes,\u201d said Leadership Liaison Kim Wells. \u201cWe\u2019re looking for concrete answers on what those barriers are so we can offer some support.\u201d\nIndeed, the survey invites participants to respond to some ideas, like legal help with lease language, a central location for pet-friendly listings or financial support for damages.\n\u201cPeople may be stuck in a mindset that\u2019s not accurate,\u201d Boyd said. \u201cWe expect there to be a lot of reasoning about pets doing damage in the home. Also, a lot of HOAs have bylaws that just restrict pets in rental units, and we hope that\u2019s just because they\u2019ve been in place for a long time and they\u2019re difficult to change.We\u2019re hoping to offer some alternative stories that could influence property owners decisions and highlight the benefits of pets for families.\u201d\nWhile Welles is looking forward to having trends and concrete information to work with, there\u2019s no shortage of anecdotal information in the meantime. An inquiry in the \u201cRoaring Fork Rentals & Roommates\u201d Facebook group prompted numerous responses.\nDaniel Walker wrote that he was homeless for nine months before he found a place that would accept his Great Dane, Pongo. Even now, he commutes all the way from No Name. Meanwhile, Alex Spiker had to go all the way to Silt to find a place that would allow large dogs \u2014 with even places that allow pets balking at a golden retriever. For Lisa Curley, relocating from Park City for a job at the Post Independent meant staying in an expensive one-room vacation rental at first, and her current pet-friendly situation is about to change.\n\u201cI want to buy a place so I don\u2019t have the issue anymore but there is limited housing for sale and what is for sale is so inflated it is crazy,\u201d she wrote. \u201cCarbondale spoke to me, and I want to call it home.\u201d\n\u201cI honestly don\u2019t understand why pets are that big of a deal to have in rentals,\u201d Amy Moore added. \u201cI\u2019ve seen kids more destructive than pets. I\u2019ve seen kids color on walls, put holes in them by throwing toys or have accidents where they knocked over furniture, and I\u2019ve even seen toddlers pee on carpet. We love our kids, we love our pets. I think if you could prove you are a responsible pet owner and even willing to pay a pet fee or a bigger deposit, then they should be allowed.\u201d\nAshley Gann of Dog\u2019s Best Friend agreed.\n\u201cOur business is supported by responsible and professional pet owners who hire our services to let their pup out midday while they are at work to prevent accidents. I\u2019m amazed at the number of responsible pet owners in our valley who understand that owning a dog is not easy and take the extra steps to properly care for their pups.\u201d\nLandlord Jesse Zucco brought a slightly different perspective.\n\u201cIt is not the pets that are the problem, it is some of the people who own pets,\u201d he observed. \u201cI allow pets and I have had mostly good tenants, but when it goes bad, it goes really bad\u2026 I think one of the biggest problems is people don\u2019t realize how much they have to work to pay the bills in this valley and therefore the pets are left at home to potty in the house.\u201d\nWhether the Initiative will be able to make up for that remains to be seen, but the team\u2019s goal is \u201ca future where more rental properties and HOAs permit pets so that families can stay together and all pet lovers can have the opportunity to adopt.\u201d\n\u201cI can\u2019t imagine having to go through that,\u201d Wells said. \u201cOur pets are our family members.\u201d\nHelp keep pets with their people and win a $100 Gift Card to White House Pizza!!\nC.A.R.E. and Roaring Fork Leadership are launching a Pet Friendly Housing Initiative to increase the availability of pet friendly housing options in the Roaring Fork Valley.\nWe need your help!

        "title": "Exploring the Benefits of DOCSIS 3.1 | Comcast Technology Solutions",
        "raw_content": "A few years ago, DOCSIS 3.1 was announced at a special meeting of the Society for Cable Telecommunications Engineers (SCTE). CableLabs officially released the specification in October 2013, putting us a little over two years since its inception. By well into 2015, you may be wondering what is the hold up?\nAs a reminder, DOCSIS 3.1 provides speeds up to 50% faster than existing DOCSIS 3.0, resulting in a theoretical speed of up to 10 Gbps downstream, and a practical application of 1 Gbps to the home. Compared to current average network speeds, this is a huge increase without a forklift upgrade to the headend or a carte blanche overhaul of an operators\u2019 consumer premises equipment (CPE). In fact, many routers readily available from retailers can handle this throughput with a minimal investment by consumers. And, because cable operators already have HFC to the home, they are in the best position to quickly push these upgrades to homes across their whole footprint, whereas other providers have to dig lines to select areas, at great expense, to match this speed.\nAs an added bonus, DOCSIS 3.1 is more energy efficient than existing DOCSIS 3.0 standards, allowing cable modems to go into \u201csleep\u201d mode during certain times of day, much like a digital thermostat. And, it allows for more security options over previous DOCSIS versions.\nThis is all good news for consumers and cable operators, but DOCSIS 3.1 also benefits content owners. The quantum leap in speed can greatly increase the performance and stability of content delivered to the consumer. Consider these findings from online video optimization firm Conviva[i]: viewing time for live action TV drops from over 40 minutes in HD to just 1 minute, if the viewer encounters buffering. \u201cBy reducing buffering, a live content provider could improve revenue (from more viewed advertising) by as much as 8.5%. The revenue uplift from improving video quality is even greater; upward of 11.4%. Combined, the potential total uplift reaches 20%,\u201d its analysis determined. DOCSIS 3.1 can help to reduce buffering and result in a better overall experience for viewers. This is especially important for new technologies which require higher resolutions such as the ability to stream and download 4K content or gaming.\nWith so many advantages, it is easy to see why the industry is keeping a close eye on developments. Fortunately, the new spec is gaining momentum. Recently, Broadcom unveiled the first D3.1 chip, compatible with both DOCSIS 3.1 and DOCSIS 3.0.[ii] As technologies like this, tailored to DOCSIS 3.1, proliferate the marketplace they will help accelerate the adoption across HFC networks and ultimately into the home. Several cable operators are planning tests this year with wide scale availability in the next few years. While challenges certainly exist to making DOCSIS 3.1 \u2013 and 1 Gbps to the home \u2013 a reality, cable operators are in the best position to create scalable, manageable solutions that can benefit the entire ecosystem.\n[i] http://www.conviva.com/conviva-viewer-experience-report/vxr-2013/\n[ii] http://www.multichannel.com/news/technology/ces-broadcom-chips-docsis-31/386655?nopaging=1",

        "raw_content": "John Bambridge visits TDIC's latest residential development\nJohn Bambridge visits TDIC\u2019s latest residential development on Saadiyat Island as the spotlight returns to the developer\u2019s $27bn masterplan in the wake of major project announcements\nThe launch of The District, a 17-hectare retail project in Saadiyat\u2019s Cultural District, and the award to Arabtec of the long delayed main contract for the Louvre Abu Dhabi, have done much to restore industry confidence in the progress of the Tourism Development & Investment Co. (TDIC) on its extravagant masterplan for the island.\nHowever, these high profile bursts of attention belie the broader nature of ongoing development on Saadiyat, and in particular TDIC\u2019s residential projects, an element of the masterplan that though indispensable can get forgotten about in the race for the flagship tenders.\nThe Saadiyat Beach Residences is the latest such project that TDIC has been nurturing. Last December, a ceremony marked the handover to eager tenants of the first 285-unit batch of properties on the gated development. These will be followed by a further 210 homes in a second phase being completed this year.\nConstruction on the project, with its final tally of 495 residential units across its six low-rise apartment buildings, is being headed by Dhabi Contracting. Both phases involve three five-storey structures, which together cluster around a community centre and the project's array of sports and leisure facilities.\nOn site is Ahmed Al Fahim, executive director of marketing, communications, sales and leasing at TDIC. By the pool of the largely completed communal area, he says: \u201cWe are delighted to welcome the first tenants to this new residential community on Saadiyat.\u201d\nBilled as a middle-income development in a luxury location, the Beach Residences have risen alongside their costlier cousins, the Saadiyat Beach Villas, which are now into their third phase and already 80%-sold.\nCommenting on this juxtaposition, Al Fahim notes: \u201cWith the high level of interest we continuously receive from prospective residents, Saadiyat Beach Residences has proven to be just as appealing and an ideal opportunity for people searching for reasonably priced apartments in Abu Dhabi.\u201d\nWhile the project may seem ahead of the curve in terms of the development of facilities on the island, by 2014 the education stages from pre-school up to university level will be available on Saadiyat with the opening of both the Cranleigh Abu Dhabi school, which will become the largest school campus in Abu Dhabi, and the New York University Abu Dhabi, which will host 2,500 students.\n\u201cWe want to build whatever the university requires,\u201d agrees Al Fahim, but beyond this the 27km2 Saadiyat Island is expected to one day be home to 145,000 people.\nHe adds the master developer is looking at selling plots of land near to the New York University campus, priced in the range of $161 per m2, for schemes of about eight-storeys high, that will blend student housing, homes and offices aimed at supporting the new university faculty.\n\u201cThis year we are concentrating on our developments, but we want other developers to build on Saadiyat too. It is not economical for us to develop the whole island, and it is good for the market to involve other developers.\u201d\nDhabi Contracting, in its role as main contractor on Saadiyat Beach Residences, has been discretely productive, leaving a record that will stand it in good stead to carry out further residential projects on the island.\nTouring the site, James Fitzpatrick, senior project manager with the contractor, says: \u201cThe main point of the project is the way the teams adapted together right the way down from the client down through the architect and consultant to ourselves, the main contractor, and all the specialist subcontractors \u2013 we have maintained a team on that basis throughout.\nThere have been some difficult moments, differences of opinion sometimes on the choice of materials to use, or the cost of the materials, but that is about it. On the whole, it has been a really well-managed team effort, and it\u2019s worked very well.\u201d\nOn the physical construction side, Fitzpatrick details: \u201cThere is some glass-reinforced concrete, especially the ridges around the tops, some of the balconies, the shading, the awnings, so there is some precast, but in the main it has been built from concrete from scratch \u2013 the extra elements that are precast are just add-ons.\nThe foundations are nothing we haven\u2019t done before, so there were no issues with the underground car parks. Obviously there is a lot of water proofing \u2013 you\u2019re digging down into a water-filled area, so there\u2019s a lot of dewatering to be done \u2013 but again it is something that we have done before, and we are used to in the region, so we just get a specialist subcontractor in and they make it easy for us.\u201d\nFor Al Fahim, \u201cthe high quality finishing distinguishes Saadiyat Beach Residences as a unique residential community in the Abu Dhabi market.\u201d For both the client and contractor the standard of the finishing on the buildings is an element of the project that stands out.\nThe quality of the materials and the workmanship is a point of note and pride for Fitzpatrick, who explains: \u201cI have spoken to a couple of people who aren\u2019t involved with the project and they have said that they are the best looking buildings in Abu Dhabi, so it\u2019s a big plus \u2013 it\u2019s a big plus for everybody involved, but especially Dhabi Contracting, and TDIC \u2013 I am sure they are very proud as well. I certainly think it\u2019s the most nicely finished project in my time in the UAE.\"\n\u201cIt is a project that at the end you can see the work has gone in and it has been finished well, and top class materials have been used.\nCertainly on bigger projects for TDIC, they will not use anything that\u2019s not up to scratch \u2013 they want their occupants to have the best of the best. You are not going to sell things that are rubbish, but you give something that\u2019s a little bit better than anything else and you\u2019re going to get money for it.\u201d\nOverall, the development will occupy an area 168,000m2, including roads and open space, while the built up area will total 370,000m2. Aside from main contractor Dhabi Contracting the parties on the $182m project include Clarke Bond Middle East as project manager, the Sweett Group as cost consultant and GHD as project engineer.\nThe MEP works, worth $35.4m is being carried out by Grade \u2018A\u2019 MEP sub-contractor Drake and Scull International, and have a programmed date for completion in January 2013. Another consideration for DSI was the lack of a gas supply on Saadiyat Island, so a plant has been installed on the project for the production of synthetic natural gas.\nThe facilities in the middle of the compound include a gym, changing rooms and prayer rooms, and outside, there is a 25m swimming pool, an 800m2 tennis court, a 646m2 multi-purpose basketball, volleyball and football court, and a caf\u00e9 and a covered barbeque area with a kitchen. On each floor of the six apartment buildings there are also communal terraces from which occupants can relish the sea view.\n\u201cWe have designed these residences especially for families. They are very community oriented,\u201d comments Al Fahim. In terms of final delivery, he says: \u201cWe are working on it now, to clear the site from all the construction machinery and facilities and then will provide the necessary facilities. The beach should be opened before the summer next year.\u201d\nReflecting back on his time with the project Fitzpatrick says: \u201cI have loved being here for the past two-and-a-half years, I have really enjoyed it. It has been a good project to work on, and as it has been quite a straightforward project I am sure there are people that have learnt both in building skills and in management skills as well, because projects do not usually run as smoothly as this.\nUsually there is a degree of confrontation between the different parties, between the client and the consultant, but going back to what I have said before, it has run quite smoothly between everybody \u2013 a real team effort.\n\u201cIt is the setup that TDIC have put in place, but we all have our own protocol, our own way of doing things and on this particular project things have gelled well together.\nEverybody is proud of it, from the top people on this project down to the labourers \u2013 they like what they see, they are proud of what they are doing, and they have been educated along the way to do a good job and to know why they have got to do a good job.\u201d\nAl Fahim can only be hoping that work flows just as smoothly on TDIC\u2019s grander project schemes for Saadiyat.\nBig 5: Force 10 wins Saadiyat Island contract\nSaadiyat Island district cooling contract awarded",

        "raw_content": "Universal Credit: the cruellest cut\nWritten by Steph Pike\nEsther McVey in Chippenham, 2015. Photo: Flickr/Gareth Milner\nThe Tory government's welfare reform programme ruins lives and must be scrapped, argues Steph Pike\nUniversal Credit was brought in by the Tories in October 2013 to replace working age benefits including Employment Support Allowance, Job Seekers Allowance, Housing Benefit, Income Support, Working Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit. It was the flagship of the Tory government\u2019s welfare reform programme.\nThe Tory government claimed that UC was designed to simplify the benefits system and to \u2018incentivise\u2019 people to move into work by ensuring people were better off working. Since 2013 UC has been beset by continual problems and controversy, with implementation delayed and the full roll out of UC not due to be completed until 2023.\nIn their 2010 White Paper, \u2018Welfare that Works\u2019 the Government promised that \u2018no-one will experience a reduction in their benefits as a result of the introduction of Universal Credit\u2019. It then immediately launched its austerity programme, unleashing a frenzy of cuts that has decimated Local Authority spending by 60%, starved the NHS of funding leaving millions of people without the care and support they need.\nThe cuts have been deliberately targeted at the poorest and those least able to bear them. Between 2013 and 2017 there have been at least ten significant changes to UC. All of these changes have been cuts.\nIn areas where UC has been introduced the number of people in rent arrears has increased from 23% to over 70%, and foodbanks have reported a 52% increase in demand. Research has found that 600,000 working lone parents, 750,000 households on disability benefits and 600,000 self-employed people will be worse off under UC with some households losing up to \u00a36,500 a year. The biggest losers are disabled people and families with more than two children.\nResearch forecasts that child poverty will increase substantially by 2021/22 and that welfare reform, including UC, will push a further 1.5 million children into poverty by the end of the decade. Schools are reporting a worrying increase in children going to school hungry and without clean clothes and the 44% rise in the number of hospital patients being treated for malnutrition since the Tories came to power has been linked to rising poverty. These statistics are shocking enough. But behind the statistics are real people, thousands of people who are already struggling as a consequence of moving on to UC.\nHaving worked as a welfare rights adviser at a foodbank in one of the poorest boroughs in London I have seen first-hand how cruel Universal Credit is and the suffering it is causing:\npeople without money and without food because they have to wait a minimum of five weeks for their first UC payment\na young homeless woman who had her UC sanctioned for being 5 minutes late for an appointment after walking an hour to the job centre as she had no money for her bus fare\na disabled man sanctioned because when he got to the job centre it had no lift and he couldn\u2019t walk upstairs to his appointment on the first floor\na single parent who had her benefit capped despite earning the above the limit when the benefit cap shouldn\u2019t be applied because the UC system monthly assessment cycle does not match the way people are paid so treated her as having no earned income for one month leaving her unable to pay her bills or afford food for her children\na man with mental health problems who claimed UC and told the DWP he was too ill to work was sanctioned multiple times after the DWP failed to send him for a medical assessment and instead insisted he look for work for 35 hours a week leaving him destitute and suicidal\na woman with learning disabilities who couldn\u2019t make an online claim and had to wait 2 months to get a home visit from the DWP.\nThese cases are not unusual and there is overwhelming evidence that thousands of people already on UC are being driven further into poverty and destitution.\nThese are not teething problems, they are problems inherent in the design and administration of a benefit intended to take money from the poorest; a benefit tailored to the needs and political ideology of the government rather than the needs of claimants.\nThe problems with Universal Credit were raised with the government before it was implemented. The government didn\u2019t listen. The government introduced UC in pilot areas to \u2018test and learn\u2019. It learnt nothing and ignored all the early evidence of the hardship and suffering that UC was causing. Over the past five years it has continued to roll out a benefit increasingly condemned as unfit for purpose by activists, campaign groups, trades unions, housing providers, charities, the National Audit Office and senior politicians including Gordon Brown and John Major.\nThe rise in homelessness, the increase in poverty and destitution, the rise in despair and suicides we have seen so far is a national scandal. But it is only the tip of the iceberg. The government plans to move 7 million people currently on benefits onto UC over the next 5 years.\nBy the government\u2019s own admission, 25% of UC claims fail before any payment has been received. Many of these claims fail because of the complexity and poor administration of the benefit, leaving thousands of people without any financial support at all. Yet the Tories plan to \u2018move\u2019 people onto UC by stopping their benefits and insisting they make a new claim for UC, placing all the financial risk on the poorest in society who are least able to bear it.\nUniversal Credit is an ideological and financial attack on the poorest in society and a chilling attempt at social engineering, punishing those families with more than 2 children by withdrawing financial support; an attack by a Tory government intent on destroying public services and the welfare state.\nSince its inception grassroots activists and organisations have been campaigning tirelessly against Universal Credit and have been calling for its abolition. It is good to see that the Labour Party has now called for a complete halt and review of UC, with John McDonnell calling for it to be completely scrapped and that trades unions are now campaigning on this issue. Because of this sustained campaign the Tories are coming under increasing criticism and pressure over a benefit that is being dubbed Theresa May\u2019s \u2018poll tax\u2019.\nIn the Universal Credit debate called by the Labour Party in the House of Commons today many Tory MPs didn\u2019t turn up, presumably either too embarrassed by or indifferent to the suffering their government has wreaked on thousands and thousands of people. Esther McVey spouted her usual lies and platitudes to try and defend the indefensible, and she and the motley crew of Tories ranged behind her sneered and jeered as evidence of the suffering and destitution UC had caused was laid before them. The contempt the Tory Government has for ordinary people has never been so evident.\nDespite the callous bravado of Esther McVey, the Tory government is rattled. The word on the street is that the government will announce concessions and that the budget at the end of October will announce more money for Universal Credit. We don\u2019t know exactly what the Tories are planning but what can be sure of is that they will do the bare minimum to pretend they are listening and to try and stave off further criticism. They will not replace the \u00a313 billion pounds they have already stolen from the poorest through social security cuts.\nThe minor changes the Tories are likely to make will not address the fundamental and systemic problems inherent in Universal Credit. It is a benefit that is unreformable; a benefit that has been universally discredited. The campaign must continue until this brutal benefit is scrapped.\nTagged under: Austerity Neoliberalism Tories Welfare Poverty\nSteph Pike\nSteph Pike a is a revolutionary socialist, feminist and People's Assembly activist.

        "title": "Trump\u2019s Federal Government Shutdown and Unpaid Dishwashers",
        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s Federal Government Shutdown and Unpaid Dishwashers\nby Alycee Lane\n\u201cOver the past three decades,\u201d reported Steve Reilly in a June 2016 USA Today article, Donald Trump \u201chas been involved in more than 3,500 lawsuits.\u201d Many of these lawsuits, Reilly notes, \u201cinvolve ordinary Americans\u2026who say Trump or his companies have refused to pay them.\u201d Dishwashers, plumbers, bartenders, painters, waiters, real estate brokers, lawyers\u2013this broad swath of workers Trump routinely relied on to build his wealth, and yet he didn\u2019t see fit (it is alleged) to compensate them for the work that they had done. Trump, it seems, thought he was entitled to their unpaid labor.\n\u201cTrump\u2019s companies,\u201d Reilly continues, \u201chave also been cited for 24 violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act since 2005 for failing to pay overtime or minimum wage.\u201d\nWhile, admittedly, all of this is old news, Donald Trump\u2019s anti-labor practices are actually instructive regarding the current #TrumpShutDown. Like his refusal to pay his former employees, for example, Trump\u2019s shutdown is his willingness to sacrifice working women and men for his own personal gain. The shutdown also expresses his sense of entitlement\u2013to which the lawsuits attest\u2013to the unpaid labor of others, as well as his disregard for the fact that the workers upon whom he relies need to pay their rent, their gas and electric bills, their water bills, their student loan debts\u2013even their transportation to the local food bank. And like his treatment of his former employees, Trump\u2019s shutdown reveals an inability on his part to \u201crelate\u201d to any workers struggling to make ends meet.\nIt is fair to say, then, that Trump\u2019s anti-labor practices are guiding principles of his partial shutdown of the federal government.\nReilly concludes that the lawsuits filed against Donald Trump \u201cin total paint a portrait of Trump\u2019s sprawling organization frequently failing to pay small businesses and individuals, then sometimes tying them up in court and other negotiations for years. In some cases, the Trump teams financially overpower and outlast much smaller opponents, draining their resources. Some just give up the fight, or settle for less; some have ended up in bankruptcy or out of business altogether.\u201d\nWhat was it, precisely, that Trump recently boasted to Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer about the federal government shutdown? Oh, yes: it could go on for \u201cmonths or even years.\u201d\nJust like his former employees\u2019 lawsuits.\nSteeped in Trump\u2019s anti-labor practices, this shutdown must be seen for what it is: a war on working people, executed from the Oval Office. Indeed, it is one of many acts of class war that include the attempted evisceration of ObamaCare, environmental deregulation that specifically injures poor and working class frontline communities, Trump tax cuts for the rich, and a host of other odious policies intended to discipline and control everyday people.\nIn this regard, the #TrumpShutDown is in truth a #OnePercentShutDown. Though Trump the billionaire is of course directly responsible for it, he is not the only billionaire (and the Trump entities are not the only corporations) who believes he should suffer no consequences, ever, for how he treats workers or for his expropriation of their wealth. He is not the only billionaire who claims as his right and privilege the benefits of your unpaid work. He is not the only one-percenter aided and abetted by members of Congress as well as state politicians, at the expense of us all.\nThis shutdown, then, is a wake-up call for all working women and men\u2013whether organized or unorganized, government or private sector. It is a wake-up call that tells us not only that we must shut down this anti-worker government shutdown; but also that we must assert our power as workers everywhere\u2013in the workplace, in the courts, and on the streets\u2013because it is the only way we can win the class war of which the #TrumpShutDown is so much a part.\nMore articles by:Alycee Lane",

In charge of security in a hospital, he is esteemed both by his superiors and his fellow colleagues. Moreover he is a good father who, willing to be closer to his eleven-year-old son Julien, has chosen to be transferred to the town where the boy lives with his mother and his older sister Jos\u00e9phine, soon to be of age. That is the very reason why Antoine, the caring father, is asking for joint custody of Julien. Well, all that would be fine provided Antoine actually was the man he claims to be. The trouble is that his wife and his two children see him in a very different light. For in the past, Antoine was far from an angel. On the contrary, he had a knack for creating an atmosphere of permanent fear at home, going as far as to occasionally beat his wife under his children's eyes. And he got away with it all the more easily as Miriam, wishing to avoid even more problems, never lodged a complaint against him - a fact that eventually turns against her. Which is why, despite the fact that Julien does not want to see his father any more, the family court judge complies with Antoine's request.\nCustody (Jusqu'\u00e0 la garde) DVD Cover Reviewed by Addicted Covers on November 27, 2018 Rating: 5",

Davis helped Crewe keep a clean-sheet and earn a point against the Bantams and now the centre-half is focussed on retaining his place moving forward.\nDavis had been one of Crewe\u2019s most consistent performers before suffering the knee injury against Gillingham last month, but after completing two 90 minutes in the space of a few days after also playing for the Under-21s against Burnley, the defender is showing no signs of discomfort.\nHarry told Crewe Alex Player: \u201cIt's not nice being out. You don\u2019t feel a part of things. It\u2019s just nice to be back among the lads and I was delighted to play on Saturday. I really enjoyed being out there.\n\u201cI was very happy to get the call to play. I just want to be out there doing my job. I was delighted with the clean sheet and it gave the whole team a massive confidence boost. When you are on a bad run the best thing you can do is stop the ball going into your net first and foremost.\nHarry added: \u201cWe need more clean sheets and hopefully we have set a platform now. We need to be harder to beat.\u201d\nThere is more from Harry now available on Crewe Alex Player. Why not subscribe now and enjoy two months for the price of one with us?",

        "raw_content": "In 1992, Henry made his ODI debut at the World Cup, the tournament in which South Africa reintroduced themselves to global sport as a determined, driven outfit. Apartheid, an official marginalisation of the country\u2019s black majority, was the reason South Africa had been isolated from the international community. The cricket World Cup became one of the routes through which they re-entered the fold.\nJonty Rhodes is flying through the air like Superman to run out Inzamam-ul-Haq. For most of us it\u2019s the first sighting of Allan Donald\u2019s \u201cWhite Lightning\u201d. Then there\u2019s Kepler Wessels \u2013 is he an enemy of the state or do we give him a cheer? Too dour for cheering, perhaps. Don\u2019t forget the farcical sight of the SCG semi-final scoreboard against England. Before he\u2019d even been granted the right to vote in his own country, South African all-rounder Omar Henry had represented his nation on the world stage, at that 1992 World Cup.\nRead More: Upcoming Cricket Matches May 2016 To Dec 2016\nWe always knew there\u2019d be a political footprint to South Africa\u2019s reintroduction to international sport, but they left plenty of cricketing impressions too. Understandable then that it takes a while to rake up memories of what happened beforehand, when the selection of that Proteas squad sent an entire nation into a state of turmoil.\nThe decision to cut much-loved Clive Rice \u2013 incumbent national captain and holder of the kind of public approval rating that suggested he\u2019d continue in the role \u2013 plus veteran batsmen Jimmy Cook and Peter Kirsten from the squad for cricket\u2019s marquee event was scandalous. It was worse than that, in fact. The veteran trio actually missed out entirely on a provisional list of 30 \u201cprobables\u201d from whom the final squad would be chosen.\nBut how to vent your spleen in such technologically austere times? Well, petitions of course. Lots of petitions. South Africans had waited 20 years for this moment and what, these selectors were just going to turf the stalwarts?\n\u201cI was as staggered as the rest of the country,\u201d South Africa\u2019s coach Mike Proctor later told ESPNCricinfo. Cook and Kirsten had a window re-opened when they were included in the \u201cfriendship series\u201d against India and the latter did well enough to win his way back into his country\u2019s final squad for the main event in Australia and New Zealand. It was a judicious reprieve \u2013 Kirsten ended up third on the tournament run-getters\u2019 list with 410 at 68.33. Not bad for an old bloke who became known for getting hit in the head.\nBut it was Rice who probably had most reason to feel aggrieved. Just four months earlier he\u2019d been pulled aside during a club game and told by South African selector Lee Irvine that not only was South Africa re-entering international cricket within the week but that Rice was the man who would lead the first post-Apartheid team. Yet now he wasn\u2019t even in the best 30 players in his country?\n\u201cI was very pissed off not to go,\u201d Rice recently told Inside Cricket, leaving little to the imagination with his follow-up: \u201cI never saw eye-to-eye with our chairman of selectors, Peter Van Der Merwe. He was a total amateur when it came to playing the game and he was the same as a selector.\u201d So on the balance of things then, you\u2019d say it\u2019s probably still a sore point.\nFirst Leaked Images of Apple\u2019s New iPhone 7 Design \u2018Confirmed\u2019\nApple, Samsung: Need to think new plan smartphone makers, Report\nApple\u2019s iPhone 7 Introducing Plan |Apple\u2019s upcoming iPhone can change the game\nNew Benchmarks ranking : Galaxy S7\u2019s chips match the iPhone 6s\nSketchy rumor suggests | Apple iPhone 7 could feature flush touch-sensitive Home button, dustproof casing and waterproof\nIntel set to deliver faster wireless speeds than ever before in Apple\u2019s iPhone 7\nRelated Items:South Africa, World Cup, World Cup 1992",

        "title": "How eIDAS can help SMEs grow and prosper",
        "raw_content": "How eIDAS can help SMEs grow and prosper\nSmall and Medium Enterprises form the backbone of any economy. In the European Union, SMEs represent 99% of all businesses and account for an astounding 85% of job growth. Providing the best environment for these SMEs to thrive and prosper thus becomes pivotal for any country. The EU has a tradition of promoting entrepreneurship and leads the pack when it comes to ease of doing business, access to finance, having a strong legal framework, a robust regulatory environment and a variety of other support structures. SMEs have also played a key role in achieving the EU\u2019s goal of creating a digital single market across Europe. Directives like eIDAS provide SMEs and start-ups a set of very powerful tools to achieve their own business goals and gives them access to a pan European customer base. Let\u2019s take a brief look at how eIDAS can help SMEs grow and prosper.\nSMEs cannot devote as many resources to administrative tasks as large corporations. eIDAS can help in minimizing the administrative burden in electronic transactions with customers, other businesses as well as the government.\nSafety and security is the primary concern for most clients when transacting online. eIDAS enabled tools go a long way in providing robust safeguards which can help SMEs offer the same level of protection as the big players.\nIncreased safety and reduced administrative burdens lead to lower operating costs for SMEs. This helps them be more competitive and grow faster.\nBusinesses do best when they are focusing on their core competencies. Large companies can afford to bend this rule a little and spend resources on various aspects of their business, but SMEs need to stay razor focused on their core business. eIDAS enabled tools can help SMEs stay focused on their core competencies without having to worry about user identification, authentication and other security or KYC related issues.\neIDAS can also provide SMEs with electronic transfer of data through eDelivery which can be a game changer for many.\nBeing technology neutral, eIDAS allows an enormous amount of flexibility in how to implement its solutions. This can be especially beneficial to SMEs since each one of them would require a solution that can match their scale, budget and specific requirements. No need to purchase expensive enterprise solutions.\nSMEs can also deploy additional security features in a scalable manner using eIDAS. Everything from multi factor authentication and electronic signatures to trust services and electronic timestamps can be implemented.\nRegulatory compliance can be very costly even for the largest of firms. So for SMEs any savings on this front can be valuable. eIDAS can provide for quick KYC checks and compliance which can prove useful for many types of small businesses \u2013 from FinTech to professional services and beyond.\nThe eIDAS directive goes a long way in providing SMEs with scalable and cost-effective solutions tailored to their specific needs. From digital security to regulatory compliance and from ease-of-use to accessibility, SMEs can take advantage of a multitude of features. The tools provided by eIDAS can act a force multiplier for SMEs and allow them to compete head-on with much larger competitors.\nImage: JBW2PXDOL6, courtesy of Im\u00e1genes Gratis Online, Flickr (CC BY 2.0)",

Farris was selected by a scholarship committee consisting of representatives from Praxair, SIAD, the University of Bergamo, and CSU-Pueblo. A Math Learning Center tutor, Farris has a 4.0 cumulative grade point average. During his period of study in Bergamo, Farris will take courses in Engineering and Italian and will participate in weekend excursions to various European destinations.\nCSU-Pueblo implemented the Praxair-SIAD scholarship exchange five years ago. In that time, the university has hosted several Italian Engineering students, who have studied English, Engineering and other topics, while contributing to our multicultural and dynamic student population. Farris will join two CSU-Ft. Collins students, Corrie Noah and Jordyn Dahlke, who also received the prize. Farris will be the first student from the Pueblo campus to accept the award.\n\u201cI cannot begin to say how happy I am to have won this scholarship and how grateful I am to Professor Picicci for telling me about it,\u201d Farris said. \u201cI am so excited to live and study in Italy, and I can't wait until next spring.\u201d\nWhile in Italy, Farris will practice his Italian and learning about the northern region of Lombardy. Bergamo is a sister city of Pueblo and one of the international universities with which CSU-Pueblo shares an exchange agreement. Farris will act as a representative of CSU-Pueblo while living and studying in Italy, helping to fortify our relationship with the town and its people. Additionally, he was invited to participate in a three-month summer internship with SIAD, a leading Italian chemical group specializing in industrial gases, engineering, and industrial goods. Praxair is the largest industrial gases company in North and South America and is proud of its partnership with SIAD in Italy.\nChris Piccici, associate professor of foreign languages, said the Praxair/SIAD and University of Bergamo/CSU-Pueblo partnerships provide invaluable learning and development opportunities for promising engineers in a study abroad scholarship.",

        "raw_content": "Brendan Jan Walsh/Mr Van Walsh: Two Sides of the Same Cello\nBy: David Blumenstein | April 2018\nBrendan Jan Walsh is anything but conventional. I met him here in Columbus, Ohio of all places at what was billed as a Classical Music Rave. On that alone I made a bee-line for the event, not knowing anything about him, but mindful of my past raving, this had to be experienced. Yes, there were lights, there were indeed cellists \u2013 the event was sponsored by CELLOHIO\u2013 and Brendan was indeed the DJ, a Mad Hatter of sorts.\nTaking the opportunity to speak with Brendan briefly that night and connecting with him online, we now frequently message and I\u2019ve gotten to know more about him, more about what makes him tick. For him it is about more than the music, and I see him as somewhat of a cultural revolutionary, taking his background in music, his learning from business school as tools to bridge the gap between the Arts and Business, the Arts and Consumers.\nThat\u2019s a lot to take in, to digest, to fully understand. To get down to the matter I will be interviewing Brendan to find the answers to the questions and more? BJW\u2019s alter ego Mr Van Walsh (MVW), might be making an appearance so don\u2019t be alarmed. Consider yourself fortunate.\nDB: Who are you? I\u2019ve gotten to know you as Brendan Jan Walsh and Mr Van Walsh. Why the two personas?\nBJW: I\u2019m really just a guy with a moustache who believes that the world can always be more beautiful and who will do as much as possible to contribute to that. Currently my e-mail footer could read: cellist / composer / conductor / DJ / entrepreneur / lecturer / MC / moderator / presenter / producer / strategy consultant / (recent) vlogger.\nThe idea of creating an artistic alter-ego arose when I noticed everybody was getting rather confused with all the things I do. So, I separated my activities into two worlds: offstage and onstage. Offstage, I can be rather serious and professional. Onstage, I let Mr Van Walsh out. This way I get to be king AND jester. By visibly switching hats, I hope to help manage expectations. He\u2019s also a bit of a parody of myself, so I don\u2019t fall in the trap of taking myself too seriously.\nBasically, I\u2019m a professional madman who tries to keep both sides of the brain active and connected. In my mind, I\u2019m just me. But who is \u2018me\u2019?\nI\u2019m one of two sons of international parents. My mother is a Belgian violin pedagogue, my father a British computer engineer. I was born in England and raised in Belgium. I grew up speaking multiple languages and had the luxury of inheriting the analytical strategic left-side of my father\u2019s \u2018Walsh\u2019 brain and the crazy creative right-side of my mother\u2019s \u2018Van Bouwel\u2019 brain.\nI had a colorful childhood. When I was 8 years old, I wanted to become king\u2026 I imagined that a king had to be good at everything and would do good for everybody around him, thus making everybody happy. I thought I\u2019d be pretty good at it. I remember classmates laughing at me for such a dream and my reaction being: just you wait!\nIn my youth I also spent a lot of time performing. I have always enjoyed the spotlight, making people laugh and cry, wonder and ponder. When I told my mother at the age of 16 that I wanted to become a musician, she reacted: \u201cYou\u2019ve got a good brain, please use it. Don\u2019t go into music. It\u2019s a small world.\u201d It left me rather confused, but stubbornly looked for a solution and I was happy to learn that I could combine music and languages at the University of Huddersfield in the UK.\nContinuing my ambitions to master the language of music, I was accepted at a conservatoire in the Netherlands. And I hated it! I simply could not adapt to the system that was being imposed rather rigorously onto the cello class. They were training me to be an orchestral musician, whilst all I wanted was to develop my own sound. Except I couldn\u2019t formulate it so clearly at that time.\nI felt unhappy and lost, until I met a brilliant man, academic and conductor, the late Christopher Hogwood. We developed a friendship and he suggested that I should consider management. My initial reaction was: I\u2019m not a failed musician just yet! But my mind was triggered and to my own surprise I was accepted for a MSc at one of Europe\u2019s top business schools.\nMad Hatter in Plaid, Antwerp, Belgium \u00a9Tom de Visscher\nDB: From musician to Business School? How did that come about? Was there something missing in the music experience for you?\nBJW: Besides my frustration of not being able or allowed to musically express myself, I was also troubled by the arts world\u2019s dependency on subsidy and support. In my view, an artist has the responsibility of being a mirror of society. I saw that most of my artistic friends were practically begging for money within a system that was taking in more people than it could provide for. But should one provide for artists? I started to think that every artist should be an entrepreneur. We live in a market economy, but in the world of arts nobody seemed to be able to explain how they do it \u2018out in the real world\u2019.\nSo I temporarily sold my artistic soul to learn how the world of money works. I sponged up knowledge and experience by working in finance for a bank in the City of London, in marketing for L\u2019Oreal HQ in Paris, in sales for a software company, HR for IBM and management consulting at airports.\nThen the financial crisis hit and I took that as my cue to return to the cultural sector.\nDB: What was the turning point for you as a business executive? Or did particular clients you worked with spur on this cultural revolution of yours?\nBJW: Well, I always wanted to go back into the arts. It did however happen sooner than I anticipated. (I had given myself 10 years, it turned out to be 6). But I must give credit to the president of L\u2019Or\u00e9al Professionel at the time, who predicted that I would return to the world of music and connect the arts to the business world.\nAnd I did. In 2009 I re-entered the arts world full of conviction and energy, wanting to share my new knowledge and network and build that bridge between art and business.\nI ran too fast. I upset quite a few of people, mostly in the arts. I quickly came to the conclusion that it was too early to connect both worlds, simply because they really did speak a different language. Instead of translating, I invested in transferring business and entrepreneurship skills in the arts through teaching and consulting.\nUntil I got fed up of writing plans for other people and hoping they would execute them. One day a smart student smugly asked: all this you\u2019re teaching us, how do we know it works? He had a very good point, I thought, and soon afterwards I started practicing much more vigorously what I preached. It coincided with the development of the very first Classical Music Rave in Amsterdam.",

Two British women soldiers fighting ISIS alongside the SAS...\nThe state surveillance made him anxious - something made abundantly clear in an email he sent to journalist Robert Verkaik, printed today by the Sunday Times, after he sold an old laptop on Gumtree.\nEmwazi advertised the computer using only his surname. However, when the transaction was carried out at a tube stop close to his Maida Vale home, he claims the buyer concluded by saying: 'Nice doing business with you, Mohammed.'\nHe was convinced it had been bought by MI5 for examination.\nIn an email written to a journalist in 2010, Mohammed Emwazi - who was killed by a US missile strike in November - said he planned to take 'as many pills as I can' to escape what he believed was his own personal persecution at the hands of the secret service\nThe then 22-year-old complained that he felt 'like a dead man walking' after being repeatedly scrutinised by counter terrorism officers who probed all aspects of his lifestyle - including his home (pictured), family and girlfriends - and subsequently banned him from leaving Britain\nIn his email following the incident, he stressed that the interest both MI5 and Scotland Yard were showing in him was bringing him close to taking his own life.\nHe wrote: 'I knew it was them [MI5].\n'Sometimes I feel like I'm a dead man walking, not fearing they may kill me. Rather, fearing that one day I'll take as many pills as I can so that I can sleep forever.\n'I just want to get away from these people.'\nEmwazi's brother Omar experienced the would-be executioner's downward spiral first hand.\nHe said: 'Let's say there was something across the road that he had to get and there was a very busy road. He wouldn't think about getting hit...because he had no life any more.\n'He was rejected from his work, from his marriage and from his community. Even from travelling. That hurt him a lot.'\nDespite a ban prohibiting him from leaving the country, Emwazi first escaped Britain in 2011, when he headed to Lisbon.\nHe returned a short time later but successfully evaded border control again to leave for good in 2012.\nAfter making it to Syria, he became ISIS executioner in chief, filmed on sickening propaganda videos beheading five western hostages - American journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, British aid worker David Haines, former Manchester taxi driver Alan Henning, and US soldier turned aid worker, Peter Kassig.\nDressed in all black tunics, Emwazi - by that time known as Jihadi John - became the word's most wanted man.\nHe was eventually killed on November 12 after US intelligence had established where his wife and child were living.\nHe was 'evaporated' by a drone strike as he left the premises in Raqqa.\nJIHADI JOHN: LONDON BOY TO 'COLD, SADISTIC AND MERCILESS KILLER'\nMohammed Emwazi was six years old when his family moved to London.\nHe grew up in North Kensington, a leafy middle-class area where a network of Islamist extremists was uncovered in recent years.\nAs a child he was a fan of Manchester United football club and the band S Club 7, according to a 1996 school year book published by The Sun.\nHis former headteacher at Quintin Kynaston Community Academy in the north of the city recalled a 'hard-working aspirational young man'.\nShe said he had been bullied at school but insisted she was not aware of any radicalisation of pupils there.\nEmwazi aged around seven (left) at St Mary Magdalene CE Primary School in Maida Vale, London, and aged 15 (right), in the playground of Qunitin Kynaston Academy in North London, in May 2004\nHe later went on to study information technology at the University of Westminster.\nEmwazi went on to work with an IT firm in Kuwait during a stint in the Gulf and was described by a former boss as 'the best employee we ever had' and a 'calm and decent' person.\nClaims earlier this year by campaign group Cage that he was harassed by British security services, driving him to extremism, were branded 'reprehensible' by Downing Street.\nHe was known to intelligence services in the UK since at least 2009 and had been on a list of potential terror suspects.\nJournalists knock on doors at a residential address where Kuwaiti-born London computer programmer Mohammed Emwazi is once believed to have lived\nAfter Emwazi was identified as the man in the videos Cage director Asim Qureshi, who had been a former confidant, controversially described him as a 'beautiful young man'.\nLast month Cage admitted it made mistakes in its handling of the issue, but added that they believed their intervention had made an 'important contribution to the debates around security services' accountability'.\nCourt papers published by British media connected Emwazi to a network of extremists known as 'The London Boys' that were originally trained by al-Shabab, Al-Qaeda's East Africa affiliate.\nOne hostage who fell under Emwazi's control in the ISIS group's hub in Raqa talked of a 'cold, sadistic and merciless' killer.\nThe quiet little London boy who became the world\u2019s most wanted man | The Sunday Times\nJihadi John talked about killing himself before beheadings with ISIS",

        "raw_content": "Gregg Hudson, Contributor\nConnect with Gregg Hudson\nEditor's note: Columnist Mark Davis expressed concern about recent reports of zoo animal maltreatment and posed the question: Do we need zoos? The chief executive of the Dallas Zoo offered this swift response.\nI have been fortunate enough during my career to lead both the Dallas and Fort Worth zoos during periods of great change and renaissance. The answer to the question, Do we need zoos? is yes, we need good zoos.\nBy good zoos, I mean zoos that are accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. There are more than 2,800 animal exhibitors licensed by the USDA across the country and, sadly, less than 10 percent of those are AZA-accredited. Which means only 233 animal institutions in the U.S. have met the rigorous standards to call themselves AZA-accredited. In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, there are four AZA-accredited facilities: Dallas Zoo, Fort Worth Zoo, Dallas World Aquarium and SEA LIFE Grapevine Aquarium. The Austin Zoo, which has recently been in the news for reports of animal mistreatment, is not an accredited AZA facility.\nTo achieve this accreditation, the facility must go through an extensive review process, including an inspection of all aspects of the facility's operation, from animal welfare, veterinary care, keeper training and safety, to conservation efforts, education efforts, financial stability, risk management and more.\nI love zoos, but do we need them?\nI must emphasize that AZA-accredited institutions exist for far more reasons than just people's enjoyment. We are collectively doing some of the world's most impactful work to protect wildlife. As an association, we are contributing an impressive $200 million to save wild animals each year \u2014 that's far more than most animal and conservation organizations can claim. Our zoological experts have saved many species from the brink of extinction, like the black-footed ferret, scimitar-horned oryx, California condor and golden lion tamarin.\nMost recently, staff from the Dallas Zoo have traveled around the world to provide emergency aid to save radiated tortoises in Madagascar and to manage an international team installing artificial penguin nests in South Africa. We are currently leading a collaborative effort to help rescue abandoned lesser flamingoes in South Africa. Despite all of our conservation and animal welfare successes, there are hundreds more species that still need our help.\nNot only do AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums provide the highest care for our animals, but we're deeply committed to saving their counterparts in the wild, and our guests are helping us do that every single day. More than 190 million people visit AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums each year \u2014 that's more visitors than the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB annual attendance combined.\nAdditionally, we take the opportunity to connect children to nature, something many have forgotten how to do. Every day we are encouraging the next generation of wildlife conservationists to be the best stewards of our precious, quickly-depleting environment. And we're investing in teachers and science, technology, engineering and math, or STEM, education. Last year, AZA-accredited institutions provided training and curriculum materials to more than 80,000 teachers, and more than 5.6 million people participated in STEM programming offered on-site and online by AZA facilities.\nAs our Earth faces its sixth mass-extinction crisis with hundreds of species disappearing each year, we will be working to save them. We will be welcoming millions of people into our parks to learn about these majestic animals and helping our guests understand how their support is critical to the good work we do to save animals.\nWe also will be inspiring people of all ages to help create a better world for animals. We're working together to exceed the highest standards of our benchmark and continually set a new bar for what good zoos and aquariums should be achieving.\nIn this complex, evolving and interconnected world, good zoos \u2014 AZA-accredited zoos \u2014 are needed now more than ever.\nGregg Hudson is chief executive of the Dallas Zoo. He wrote this column for The Dallas Morning News.",

        "raw_content": "Max Heinemeyer, Director of Threat Hunting | Friday February 8, 2019\nFor security professionals around the world, it is hardly a secret that cyber-attacks are becoming ever more difficult to detect \u2014 incorporating stealthier tactics and even automated elements to breach the network perimeter. Yet despite the increasing sophistication of these threats, the greatest security risk confronting today\u2019s businesses, governments, and nonprofits continues to be their own employees.\nSuch credentialed network users present a relatively easy avenue into the digital estate for cyber-criminals who manage to deceive them. From banking trojans that are spread using social engineering to cryptocurrency mining carried out by disgruntled workers, the past year witnessed a significant upswing in threats that either exploited the fallibility of employees or which were authored by employees themselves.\nBy monitoring and analyzing raw traffic from all our clients\u2019 users, internet-connected devices, and cloud deployments, we saw a number of trends emerge in 2018. As the second installment of a two-part series, this article will review specifically those attack trends that involve trickery, subtlety, and the art of deception. Because, as organizations deploy the latest technologies and tools to improve their cyber defenses, the weakest link in our network security is not a machine \u2014 it is human.\nBanking trojan attacks increased by 239%\nNamed after the legendary act of Grecian subterfuge, today a trojan horse refers to a malicious computer program that misleads its user of its actual purpose, taking advantage of the fundamental weakness of human error inherent to any security posture. Over the last 12 months, the incidence of banking trojans in particular \u2014 which harvest the credentials of online banking customers from infected machines \u2014 has increased by a staggering 239% across our customer base.\nThis dramatic increase may be a consequence of the declining popularity of ransomware for monetary gain: it seems that banking trojans are, at least at present, a more profitable tool for cyber-criminals. Unlike ransomware, banking trojans do not rely on a victim\u2019s conscious willingness to pay; rather, they use deception to perform transactions without the victim\u2019s knowledge. And as the number of ransomware incidents declined in 2018, it seems that subtler attacks have become the weapons of choice for cyber-crime.\nThe proliferation of banking trojans has been accompanied by a growing sophistication in the malware itself, with many banking trojans having expanded beyond their original target of online banking access. Indeed, advanced trojans like Emotet now deliver other forms of malware as payloads, after using fraudulent emails, online advertisements, and other forms of social engineering to breach the perimeter.\nCryptocurrency-related incidents up 78%\nFigure 1: Cryptocurrency values declined precipitously in 2018 after rapid growth.\nAlongside the increase in banking trojans, Darktrace detected 78% growth in the frequency of another under-the-radar threat: crypto-jacking. Defined as the secret usage of computing power to mine cryptocurrency, crypto-jacking operates by the opposite logic of ransomware, acting as a parasite on an organization\u2019s computing systems or injecting hidden code into an organization\u2019s web pages. Whereas ransomware attackers demand payment immediately, cryptocurrency miners seek to go unnoticed for as long as possible.\nDeceptive threats like banking trojans and crypto-jacking are particularly elusive when they originate from insiders. In one Fortune 500 e-commerce company this year, Darktrace discovered a privileged access user \u2014 a disgruntled systems administrator \u2014 hijacking power sources from the company\u2019s infrastructure for his own monetary gain. The employee co-opted other users\u2019 credentials and service accounts to stealthily take over multiple machines for the purpose of crypto-mining.\nAt the same time, the growth rate of cryptocurrency-related threats is less than in the previous year, likely as a result of the dramatic fall in the value of most cryptocurrencies (see Figure 1). But with many experts anticipating these values to bounce back, we expect crypto-jacking to become far more common in the years to come. The cyber-criminal ecosystem still responds to macroeconomic factors, and as payment systems continue to evolve, so too will attackers\u2019 revenue streams.\nThe weakest link: still people\nThe rapid escalation of deceptive and subtle threats \u2014 from banking trojans that gain access with social engineering to crypto-jacking carried out by insiders to targeted spear phishing emails \u2014 is the product of a fundamental flaw with the traditional approach to cyber defense, which entails securing the perimeter against known threats. Indeed, once an employee, maliciously or inadvertently, compromises the network from the inside, protecting the perimeter does little good. And as we look ahead to 2019, a year likely to be even more dominated by deceptive attacks and internal threats, organizations must seek to better understand their own networks to recognize whenever something is, ever so slightly, amiss.",

        "raw_content": "Featured Member: Mark van der Linden, Oil and Gas Data Quality Specialist, Alberta, Canada\n>> Featured Member: Mark van der Linden, Oil and Gas Data Quality Specialist, Alberta, Canada\nIn this featured member interview we speak with Mark van der Linden, an oil and gas data quality specialist based in Calgary, Canada.\nPersonal Contact Details:\nData Quality Pro profile: https://www.dataqualitypro.com/members/?id=11813158\nTwitter: @pendersolutions\nLinkedIn: http://ca.linkedin.com/pub/mark-van-der-linden/11/988/307\nMark van der Linden: Currently, I am contracting with a Calgary-based Natural Gas Company to design and implement a long term enterprise-wide data quality (DQ) program. This initiative is still in its early stages, but through it, we have discovered the need to also roll-out a master data management (MDM) program across the organization. Both of these programs are gaining a lot of visibility and support from various stakeholders.\nMark van der Linden: Calgary, Alberta, Canada.\nData Quality Pro: How did you get started \u2013 can you describe your data quality career path so far?\nMark van der Linden: 12 years ago, I worked for a seismic company that had a very reactive, firefighting approach to resolving data issues. A colleague and I were in a coffee shop discussing these frustrations and the dream of designing a better solution that could be scalable and repeatable.\nHaving spent most of my career in the energy sector, we thought it would be wise to stay with our roots and develop a solution targeted for this group. Our goal was simple \u2013 we wanted to create an automated data quality product for the oil and gas industry that could find and fix any data related issues (regardless of whether it was manual errors, data duplication, mismatched data, etc.).\nAfter testing the waters and consulting with a few different energy companies using our new DQ approach, we decided to open an office full time and develop our own product. We presented our business plan and long term strategy to a number of private investors and were able to secure funding from them as well as from the government. These supporters helped us transform our small service company into a data quality organization with a dedicated product.\nComing from a technical background, my role in the company was to build the technology, while my business partner focused on marketing, selling, and client implementations. In the earliest days, very few companies had heard of data quality and many didn\u2019t know of its impacts. This was probably one of our biggest challenges. However, as the years went on, data quality gained some focus and momentum in the industry. It became a priority item in energy companies and a specific agenda topic at various conferences and industry events. This momentum certainly helped promote our product and the opportunities started to flow in steadily. The industry\u2019s understanding of improved data quality was the first step in establishing our company\u2019s success. With the ongoing trends of master data management and others, we continued to adapt and created a very comprehensive product that served different DQ needs. Nine years after our meeting in the coffee shop, we felt it was time to expand internationally. A few months later, we had an acquisition offer from another oil and gas software firm who fit nicely with our corporate objectives. Shortly after that transaction, I decided to become an independent consultant and have continued my passion for data quality, with a major focus on master data management.\nMark van der Linden: Many companies I have worked with in the past 20 years still have a narrow understanding around the impacts of bad data and the requirements of rolling out a detailed data quality strategy. Different departments or business units create short term tactical solutions to solve their data quality and data integration needs. Due to this, my days often include everything from hands-on technical implementations (including coding) to executive presentations that describe past experiences on specific data quality methodologies and best practices.\nMark van der Linden: My current plan is to build a consulting practice in Calgary focused on data quality and MDM in the oil and gas industry. The decision to stay as a lone consultant or expand into a larger firm is still in front of me. The market opportunities and trends will guide me.\nData Quality Pro: What lessons would you give to someone looking to break into the data quality profession?\nMark van der Linden: Always focus on the business impacts and business benefits of implementing a data quality solution. Many DQ and MDM solutions are driven from IT which are often less successful. As a rule of thumb, ask yourself how the DQ solution will help the business be more successful, make more money, attract more customers, improve customer service\u2026\nMark van der Linden: I have 20 years experience in oil and gas, so I have been most successful within this industry. As in all industries the ability to understand the terminology, corporate requirements, and business impacts of data quality go a long way to secure work. Oil and gas is a very application-centric world (e.g. best-of-breed), which in turn causes a tremendous amount of duplication and data quality issues. In addition, many oil and gas companies are currently undertaking or reviewing Master Data Management strategies to align all of their systems. This has also helped to make my skills very marketable.\nData Quality Pro: Have things like social media and the internet helped you professionally? If so, how have they helped?\nMark van der Linden: Yes, I find LinkedIn and Twitter very useful tools. Following what others are doing on Twitter is keeping me current and the obvious network abilities of LinkedIn are a huge asset. As a matter of fact, I can thank LinkedIn for helping to make the connection with Data Quality Pro.\nData Quality Pro: If you could start your data quality career again, what would you have done differently?\nMark van der Linden: I would put more emphasis on the business value of improved data quality and conduct more research around communicating the benefits of a focused solution. One of the biggest challenges we had as a data quality vendor was trying to sell the business value of quality information. Sure, we could clean and standardize every value in the application(s), but it was difficult to clearly communicate what the business benefits were and why companies should care. If I knew then what I know now, I could certainly educate companies better on the drastic consequences and business impact of not having reliable data, and the different methods to address it based on different organizational factors.\nMark van der Linden: Probably the biggest frustration (and disappointment) has been that a majority of data quality projects have an end date. This means that once the project ends and the project group disbands, the quality of the information begins to decay since generally there isn\u2019t an ongoing initiative to continuously monitor the data. With so many users touching the data and using it on a daily basis, there is always the risk of errors. It is important to note that data quality is not a one-time process, but an ongoing commitment to improvement. I am glad that my current employer is taking an enterprise approach and putting the right tools, processes, and people in place to continuously focus on quality.\nMark van der Linden: Currently, I get most of my information online from Information Management, Data Quality Pro as well as specific Google searches.\nLinked in Groups are always an interesting read as you find out what others in the industry are doing. I have a number of publications from David Loshin of Knowledge Integrity Inc. on my iPad that get regular reads as well.",

        "raw_content": "Blackburn was born in Huddersfield in 1939 to Wilfred, a painter and decorator, and Nora.[1] As an only child, Blackburn spent his time painting and walking on the moors near his home; it is this period which he credits as helping him to the cultivate the \u2018strong inner vision\u2019 [2] which is a major hallmark of his art. After securing a scholarship to the local grammar school, Blackburn studied at the Huddersfield School of Art for several years. His friends included the playwright David Halliwell, whose play Little Malcolm and his Struggle Against the Eunuchs was loosely based on the students who attended the college, and the children's television personality Wilf Lunn.[3]\nOn the advice of his tutor, Blackburn successfully applied for a place at the Royal College of Art, where he studied from 1959\u20131962. Although he was initially based in the Textile Department, students were encouraged to move between areas, and Blackburn quickly found himself drawn to the more subtle challenges of landscape art, a slightly unfashionable subject at the time. Many of Blackburn's contemporaries, including David Hockney and R.B. Kitaj, were gaining major critical recognition for their innovations in what would soon become known as Pop Art, or 'Royal College Pop'.[4] Blackburn was unmoved by the playful aesthetic of such trends, preferring instead the quieter visions of landscape artists such as Gerhart Frankl and Prunella Clough, the former of whom went on to become a major influence and personal friend.[5]",

        "raw_content": "Home Governance Governance The race for Nigeria\u2019s presidency\nElection posters in Nigeria.\nNigerians will on February 16 choose between two septuagenarians to lead Africa\u2019s largest democracy: President Muhammadu Buhari and former vice president Atiku Abubakar. The pair have run for president nine times between them.\nThere are more than 60 other candidates, though their chances of winning are slim as the wealth and patronage networks of the main parties drive the politics of Africa\u2019s top oil producer and most populous country.\nBuhari\u2019s 2015 victory with his All Progressives Congress (APC) party was built on three promises: to rid Nigeria of endemic corruption, fix the economy and tackle security threats.\nGovernment says it is making progress but the military\u2019s efforts to fight the Boko Haram Islamist insurgency and its Islamic State-allied offshoot, now in its tenth year, are crumbling.\nThe economy entered and climbed out of recession under Buhari, yet the average Nigerian is getting poorer; and opponents say his government is failing to tackle corruption, targeting only the president\u2019s enemies and ignoring allegations against his allies.\nAmnesty International and Human Rights Watch say the army is responsible for human rights abuses, including the massacre of protesters. The army said its use of force is justified.\nAfter spending five months in Britain in 2017 receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment, opposition groups and other critics said Buhari was unfit for office and his administration was beset by inertia. The president said he is strong enough to serve.\nIf Buhari wins again, Nigeria would be in for another four years of political torpor and disregard for rights, his opponents say.\nThe president said he would continue to develop the rail and road network if re-elected. He vows to expand a nationwide vocational skills programme, improve access to credit for entrepreneurs and continue his fight against corruption.\nAtiku, the candidate of the main opposition People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP), has been caught up in corruption allegations since serving as vice president between 1999 and 2007. He has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.\nHis businesses include a port logistics firm and a private university. He promised business-friendly policies to double the size of the economy to $900 billion by 2025 if elected.\nHe wants to privatise parts of the state oil company and create a $25 billion fund to support private sector infrastructure investment.\nAtiku\u2019s opponents say he would exploit pro-business policies to enrich himself and those around him.\nFAULT LINES AND FRACTURES\nNigeria is deeply divided. The north is mainly Muslim and the south largely Christian with the population fairly evenly split between religions. There are more than 200 ethnic groups. The three largest are the Hausa in the north, Yoruba in the south-west and Igbo in the south-east.\nThe divisions have led to an unofficial power sharing agreement among Nigeria\u2019s political elite. The presidency is supposed to alternate between the north and south after every two four year terms.\nBuhari, a northern Muslim, is in his first term, having held the post since 2015. His predecessor, the PDP\u2019s Goodluck Jonathan, is a southern Christian. In keeping with the accord, the PDP selected Atiku, a northerner, as its candidate for 2019.\nAs it is not the turn of a southerner and both Atiku and Buhari are Muslims from the Fulani ethnic group \u2013 one of the largest in the north \u2013 the chance of election violence around ethnicity, religion and region is reduced. The south has favoured the PDP in the past, while the north is Buhari\u2019s stronghold.\nIn the diverse Nigerian hinterland states known as the Middle Belt, the picture is less clear. Long-running violence over diminishing arable land between farmers and nomadic herders has exploded, with a death toll of more than 3,600 since 2016, according to Amnesty International.\nThis could turn the Middle Belt, much of which voted for Buhari, into swing states.\nNigeria\u2019s median age is just 18, according to the United Nations. Many youths say the ageing leaders are out of touch and started the \u201cNot Too Young to Run\u201d campaigns to encourage younger people to seek office.\nBuhari (76) is the oldest person to lead Nigeria since the transition to civilian government in 1999 and the PDP chose 72-year-old Atiku as their candidate. Both men say they are energetic enough to take on the top job.\nNigeria\u2019s former military leaders also retain a strong influence over politics nearly two decades after the start of civilian rule.\nBuhari is a retired general who was head of state from 1983-1985. Other military era chiefs continue to wield political leverage, including Olusegun Obasanjo, who led the country in the 1970s and was president from 1999-2007, and Ibrahim Babangida, who ruled from 1985-1993. Both back Atiku.\nThe two main parties, the ruling APC and opposition PDP, do not have clear ideological differences. Competition for control of national oil revenues by elites, patronage and complex rivalries between ethnic groups have play a bigger role in elections than ideology.\nBuhari\u2019s 2019 campaign prioritised poverty alleviation and social schemes, while Atiku stressed the need for a better business environment. Both vow to improve decrepit infrastructure.\nBuhari won in 2015 after assembling a broad coalition across the north and south-west under the APC party, a version of other vehicles he used to run in 2003, 2007 and 2011.\nThe PDP has links to the military and held power until Jonathan\u2019s defeat in 2015. The party has traditionally appealed to the business community, which developed during the military regime.\nAtiku, a long-time PDP member, joined the APC and became a key ally and funder of Buhari during the 2015 campaign, allowing him to use the tycoon\u2019s private jet. Atiku switched sides in late 2017.\nInternational observers and civil society groups fear election interference and rigging. They express concern about the way some state level votes were conducted last year and called for free and fair elections to take place.\nThe 2015 contest is the only time Nigeria has had a handover of power from a defeated incumbent since civilian government took over in 1999. Even then, independent observers saw evidence of vote buying, voter intimidation and other corruption.\nLast month, Buhari triggered a constitutional row when he suspended the chief judge, who has a crucial say in resolving election result disputes, over an alleged violation of wealth declaration rules. The judge has not responded to the charges and his lawyers say the tribunal investigating the allegations does not have the authority to try him.\nThe European Union, United States and Britain said they were concerned about the move. Nigeria said foreign governments should \u201ctread with caution\u201d and their interference was \u201cinsulting\u201d.\nThe elections feature in discussions and on news feeds in social media. The government launched a campaign against \u201cfake news\u201d. Facebook said it would roll out some political advertising rules and tools for curbing election interference to Nigeria.\nThe National Security Adviser\u2019s office released a statement saying the internet would not be shut down during the vote.\nTURNOUT AND RUNOFFS\nVoter turnout in the 2015 election was 29.4 million, or 44% of 67.4 million registered voters, according to Independent National Electoral Commission data. For 2019, the number of registered voters has risen to 84 million, with just over half of them aged 18-35.\nThe candidate with the most votes is declared winner as long as they have at least one-quarter of the vote in two-thirds of Nigeria\u2019s 36 states and the capital. Otherwise there is a run-off.\nAbubukar\nUnfulfilled dreams litter South Africa election\nTunisian women rally to defend rights against Islamists",

        "raw_content": "Debra Holt: Under Texas Blue Skies\nThanks to Delilah for having me as guest on her blog today. In thinking about what to write, I came up with what I hope will be something worthwhile to all new and hopeful writers-to-be.\nIt is difficult not to want to talk about my very first book to be published. However, I\u2019ll take this space I was so kindly offered to make some comments on this wild ride that has been writing and getting published as a contemporary romance author. Many years ago, over thirty to be exact, I had the brilliant idea that I could write a romance novel. I sat down and did just that. Boxed it up and mailed it off to Harlequin. I really didn\u2019t have to wait long for a reply\u2026.about four weeks. I saw the envelope in the mailbox and ripped it open thinking it had to be great news\u2026they wanted my book and there would be a huge check inside. Wrong.\nThe letter was a nice form letter thanking me but NO THANKS. I was crushed. I took my copy of the manuscript and literally boxed it and threw it under the bed in the guest room. I never saw it again. Long story short, I gave up on my dream of writing. Fast forward thirty plus years and I am more mature and have done a TON of research on the romance genre. With a gentle push (more like a hard shove) from a dear friend, I once more wrote another manuscript and this time\u2026I submitted to a few agents. One agent picked it up and worked with me for a few months before finally offering representation. That is when my real \u2018schooling\u2019 began in the world of publishing. After almost three years, I have two manuscripts sold and about to be published. That is the easy version. It wasn\u2019t an easy process and it was at best frustrating and worst\u2026a nightmare. Much the same as giving birth for the first time.\nWhat have I learned after all this? First and foremost\u2026WRITE WHAT YOU LOVE TO READ. Too often authors get in trouble and bring on a ton of frustration when we forget that simple fact. If you can\u2019t love what you wrote\u2026no one else can be expected to do so. Second, and of equal import\u2026TRUST YOUR INSTINCT. Let me explain it this way. When I first jumped into publishing, I put my writing and myself one hundred per cent in the hands of others\u2026because they knew so much more than I did. Well\u2026I now know the value of listening to that little voice inside me. When I listened to others, I found myself in deals I didn\u2019t really like, and writing in sub-genres because that is what someone else liked and wanted me to do\u2026etc. When I started saying hold on\u2026and listening to what I knew and felt to be right\u2026I was much happier and I SOLD. That is not to say that I don\u2019t value the opinions and experiences of others in the publishing world\u2026I do. There is still a lot for me to learn. I just listen to everyone now\u2026.myself included\u2026and make the best decision possible.\nBest advice to someone who wants to become a writer? Learn all you can about the genre you want to publish. Write only what you love to read. Trust in yourself and your instincts. Don\u2019t give up on your dream!\nJ.D. Sterling, country music\u2019s sexy superstar, has come home again. He has achieved his wildest dreams and did what he set out to do when he shook the dirt of the small Texas town from his boot heels a dozen years before. Now, he\u2019s returned for the final piece of the puzzle to completing his life\u2026.the girl who holds his heart. Mandy.\nAmanda Lawson has grown up. From sheer heartbreak to struggling to survive to becoming a shrewd businesswoman, she has taught herself to never look back. She survived once before the wild, green-eyed cowboy with only a guitar to his name and a pocketful of dreams. He took her heart and so much more when he left her behind with his hollow vows.\nMandy was his muse\u2026J.D. was her dream. Despite tragedy, can they find their way home to each other again?\nBorn and raised in the Lone Star state of Texas, Debra grew up among horses, cowboys, wide open spaces, and real Texas Rangers. Pride in her state and ancestry knows no bounds and it is these heroes and heroines she loves to write about the most. She also draws upon a variety of life experiences including working with abused children, caring for baby animals at a major zoo, and owning a wedding planning business (ah, romance!).\nDebra\u2019s real pride and joys, however, are her son, an aspiring film actor, and a daughter with aspirations to join the Federal Bureau of Investigation. (more story ideas!) When she isn\u2019t busy writing about tall Texans and feisty heroines, she can be found cheering on her Texas Tech Red Raiders, or heading off on another cruise adventure. She read her first romance\u2026Janet Dailey\u2019s Fiesta San Antonio, over thirty years ago and became hooked on the genre. Writing contemporary western romances, is both her passion and dream come true, and she hopes her books will bring smiles\u2026and sighs\u2026 to all who believe in happily-ever-after\u2019s.\nThe Seymour Agency represents Debra and she is soon to have two contemporary romances published by Spencer Hill/Tulip Romance and Astraea Press.

        "raw_content": "Shock as mortgages for border workers withdrawn\nThousands of people in Donegal cross the border daily for work in Derry and the rest of the north.\nA Donegal woman has spoken of her shock after being told by several mortgage providers they are no longer offering loans to those working in Derry and paid in sterling.\nIn a move expected to affect thousands of cross-border workers, new EU rules around lending - introduced in Ireland over the past fortnight - mean that such loans can now be classed as \u2018foreign currency mortgages\u2019.\nThere is now growing concern that a number of major banks and other mortgage providers are unwilling to even offer quotes to sterling earners. The new rules stem from the European Mortgage Credit Directive, and have been cited by several lenders as the reason for the change in position.\nOne woman living in Inishowen, and who inquired about changing providers, said: \u201cI checked on a comparison website and contacted the bank which was top of the list. I was providing them with details and when I said my wages in sterling they said, \u2018listen we can\u2019t take the application any further because of new legislation brought in\u2019.\n\u201c I came off the phone and then contacted another provider and asked them if they were lending to people earning sterling and the answer was no. At that stage I was just fed up.\n\u201cThe thing is, as a consumer this just wipes out all competition and gives the banks that are lending total monopoly so they can dictate the rate at which they lend. As a consumer it\u2019s not fair.\u201d\nShe added: \u201cWe are European citizens. If I was earning in Spain, would that make a difference? It\u2019s just crazy. Everybody who is living in Inishowen, they just don\u2019t have the industry of Derry City. In rural parts of the border you have to travel to the nearest town for employment.\u201d\nA spokesman for the Department of Finance in Dublin said the Mortgage Credit Directive (MCD) was put in place to provide \u201cenhanced protections to consumer borrowers when entering into residential mortgage contracts\u201d but \u201cthe decision to on whether or not to provide foreign currency mortgages remains a commercial matter for an individual lender.\u201d",

Kerry says he's aware of the comments but insists the rebel leader did not outright reject the talks.\nMeanwhile, South Sudan's military wrested a base and a town from rebel control in a violent counteroffensive just days the president agreed to participate in the talks.",

The average light vehicle weighs about two tons in total.\nForeign steel imports were up 15 percent in 2017 compared to 2016, capturing 27 percent of the U.S. market. Approximately one quarter of our domestic steel capacity today is not being utilized. That translates to idled plants and thousands of unemployed workers.\nIf unfair trade practices are not addressed, the steel industry, including the more than 22,000 steel jobs in Michigan and Ohio, could be further injured \u2014 and steel consumers could be totally reliant on foreign sources for steel. This will leave steel consuming industries at risk because they will no longer have local suppliers who can provide \u201cjust in time\u201d delivery of product.\nAllowing the continued importation of injurious subsidized steel products greatly discourages research and development of advanced steel products, which is critical not only to auto production but military and transportation applications as well.\nPutting in place effective remedies will ensure U.S. steel producers remain at the forefront in developing the most capable and advanced steel products for the auto industry and many other industries.\nRead or Share this story: http://detne.ws/2FBaAIf",

Why? Because that time follows the fall harvest but precedes the worst of winter. Nearly two centuries ago, in an agrarian society, that measure was designed to expand voting by avoiding conflicts with the farming calendar and enabling farmers to make the one- or two-day trip to polling places.\nBut America has long ceased to be an agrarian society, and the timing of Election Day now functions as an impediment to, rather than enabler of, wide participation in our democracy. For working people, getting to the polls on a work day, especially when lines may be long or if they work multiple jobs, is often extremely difficult or even impossible. The solution is easy: Make Election Day a national holiday.\nThere\u2019s only one serious objection to this idea: paid holidays are a burden on employers and reduce economic output. But the objection is easily overcome, because we don\u2019t need to create an additional national holiday. Election Day could be moved to Veterans Day, enabling us to honor those who have served by recommitting to our democracy through the sacred act of voting. Alternatively, an Election Day holiday \u2014 or, better, \u201cDemocracy Day\u201d \u2014 could be honored on its current date, the first Tuesday in November, in place of the federal recognition of Columbus Day. Or, the Democracy Day/election day could be held on a weekend.\nAmerican voter turnout is anemic. In recent presidential elections, between 50 percent and 55 percent of the voting-age population has cast a ballot, with a spike up to 58 percent in 2008, during Barack Obama\u2019s historic election. (Turnout among voting-age citizens is around 60 percent.) Although there appears to be unusual enthusiasm around our coming election, voting rates in midterm elections are far worse, generally on the order of 40 percent. In 2014, a pathetic 35.9 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot \u2014 barely more than one in three.\nU.S. voting participation rates are at the back of the pack among rich countries. We rank 26 among 32 countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (a grouping of most of the world\u2019s wealthiest nations) for which comparable data are available. This is one of those international comparisons where we really should aspire to be at the top because voting participation is a crucial indicator of democratic health.\nAmericans have to believe that their votes make a difference. The most important step in that direction would be to end the dominance of Big Money in our elections, including the torrent of negative advertisements they fund. We could do that by providing for public financing of our elections and a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, the Supreme Court decision holding that corporations \u2014 and, by extension, super rich individuals \u2014 have a right to spend as much as they please to influence election outcomes.\nWith a designated Democracy Day, we could not only remove needless barriers to voter participation, we would have an opportunity to create a civic celebration of our democracy, deepening community bonds and our shared commitment to democratic practice and participation, irrespective of ideological or partisan divides.\nRobert Weissman is president of Public Citizen.

School administrators continuously monitor not only the real feel temperature, but also how the weather may be affecting the safety of play areas around our schools.\nHOW SHOULD MY CHILD DRESS FOR SCHOOL ON THESE COLD DAYS?\nRecommended is a hat, a scarf, mittens, water resistant coat and boots, and layers of loose-fitting clothing.\nWHEN IS THE DECISION MADE TO CLOSE SCHOOL?\nUsually, the decision to close school is made before 5:30 a.m. or earlier. Whenever a large weather event has been predicted, we encourage parents to have contingency plans in place to accommodate your child or children in the event school is cancelled.\nIS WIND CHILL A DECIDING FACTOR IN CLOSING SCHOOL?\nA key factor in determining if your child can safely be transported to and from school during winter is temperature. Closing schools due to extremely cold temperatures involves looking at the wind chill factor (combination of temperature and wind). The District uses the Wind Chill Chart from the National Weather Service as a tool in determining when conditions might be too dangerous for students and staff to arrive at school safely.\nHOW ARE PARENTS NOTIFIED?\nThere are several ways to find out if school is closed on what seems like a bad weather day.\nAutomated email and/or phone call\nWoodlandCCSD50 - Our free mobile application (Just upload WoodlandCCSD50 through the Apple App Store for Apple devices, or use Google Play for Google smart phones and tablets)\nVisit our website: https://www.dist50.net\nFollow us on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/Woodland50News\nFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WoodlandDistrict50\nTune in to local a television station\nTune in to local radio: WGN (720-AM) and WBBM (780-AM)\nWHAT FACTORS GO INTO THE DECISION?\nThe State of Illinois builds five emergency days into the annual calendar. The decision to close school is based on various factors. School officials remain in close contact with the Woodland Directors of Transportation and Operations and Facilities as well as area villages and Lake County in order to monitor road and traffic conditions. In addition, we closely monitor current and future weather predictions, including temperature, snow and ice accumulations. School building conditions, such as if we have electricity and heat are also a factor as well as parking lot conditions. Temperature and wind chill also play a role for those students waiting at bus stops. There is no specific formula for making this decision, but these are examples of what we monitor when we make a decision.\nWe prefer not making our decision based on weather predictions, but sometimes this is unavoidable. We also make our decision in cooperation with other area elementary districts and with Warren Township High School and Grayslake Community High Schools.\nIt is a personal family decision if you decide to keep your child home. If a child is kept home, it is an excused absence.\nPlease know the district uses its automated phone calling system and sends an electronic message to all parent e-mail addresses on file to inform parents if school is closed. If your contact information has changed, please contact the Registration Department at registration@dist50.net or (847) 596-5682.",

        "title": "Finding New Ways to Celebrate",
        "raw_content": "Making The Most From Family Gatherings\nTraditional ways to celebrate holidays are often handed down through many generations of a family, and they are often deemed so important that they are never to be changed. Missing them or finding new ways to celebrate can be met with some resistance, so any changes to be introduced should be considered before they are made. Upsetting important holiday traditions can split a family into different factors, and it can take away the enjoyment they experience as a group. Those families that are open to adding new traditions often discuss them before the event, and they find new happiness as they welcome new in-laws and children to their group.\nAdding In-Laws\nChildren grow up and get married, and this is an important part of the cycle of life. While many families in a geographical area will celebrate in much the same way, a new in-law from a different area could have very different traditions. Mixing in their ideas on how to celebrate the holiday could cause upset in the family if it is not discussed before it occurs, but ignoring a person\u2019s traditions could hurt their feelings. Finding a good compromise might be the best way to help everyone enjoy the holiday while still being able to have at least some of their important traditions.\nA Time for Food\nMany holidays have their own special menu, so it is a time when people prepare their favorite dishes. They see it as a way to share their traditions with others, and they often make their best effort at this time. Holidays are a time to get together, catch up on what everyone is doing, but they are also a time for food. The dishes served often come with stories about distant relatives, some of them are about discovering new ways of celebrating, and others are favorites that have been passed down through many generations. Each dish is part of the whole feast that ties the family together as a unit.\nModern families have been known to completely change how they celebrate holidays, but their children might have other ideas for at least one year. There are often times when progressive parents find their offspring are interested in celebrating a holiday the old-fashioned way. If they are willing to give in, they will often find the children have done plenty of research on the subject, and they will have lists of food and entertainment that should be included. Celebrating a holiday in this manner could become a new tradition for the family, or they could find their more progressive style suits them better.\nHolidays are special times for many families, and their observances are often a generational tradition that has been handed down over the centuries. While their geographical area is no longer as important as it once was, many of the ways they celebrate can be tied to where their ancestors once lived. It is a way to tie families together with food and entertainment, but it should also be a way to welcome new members from other families into their homes and hearts.\nFamily Gatherings and Holidays\n\u00a9 2019 www.dorset-life.com",

        "title": "Renewable energy use is growing, but at a slow pace",
        "raw_content": "Renewable energy use is growing, but at a slow pace\nNew report notes that renewable energy is mostly being used in the power sector\nBy Shweta Miriam Koshy\nA new report released by global renewable energy (RE) policy network, REN21 has revealed that renewable energy is slowly but steadily replacing fossil fuels, and has still a long way to go.\nThe Global Status Report (GSR) by REN 21 shows that global investments in RE were to the tune of US $280 billion in 2017, drawing heavily from developing countries. China accounted for nearly 45 per cent of all global investments in RE, while India\u2019s US $10.9 billion amounted to 4 per cent of the total.\nGlobally, RE shares in the power sector continued to grow, but its share in the total final energy was a meagre 10.4 per cent. Aside from the power sector, highest energy consuming sectors namely transport and heating and cooling saw minimal RE inclusion (10 per cent and 3 per cent respectively).\nThe power sector continues to be the star with shares of RE reaching 2195 GW globally (not including hydro power). China leads this with 334 GW of installations, with the United States, Germany and India trailing with 161 GW, 106 GW and 61 GW respectively. Hydropower is still the largest contributor at 16.4 per cent. Wind and solar PV generation accounted for 7.5 per cent of the total electricity demand. RE constituted 70 per cent of all capacity additions in the power sector, as utilities including those of Australia, US and India necessitated a shift from fossil fuels to large-scale renewable energy generation.\nLast year saw the annual addition of nearly 19 GW of hydropower capacity. China leads the globe in cumulative installations to date and India\u2019s 44.6 GW is the fifth-largest. Solar PV capacity marched on; reaching a cumulative 402 GW, again lead primarily by China. India saw 9.1 GW worth of installations, taking its total installed capacity to 18.3 GW. Cumulative installations of concentrated solar thermal power (CSP) have reached 4.9 GW, with large additions from Spain. India was only the fifth largest contributor for wind installations despite breaking records at home. Annual additions of 52 GW took the global installed capacity to 539 GW. The global offshore wind market grew by 30 per cent. Pumped storage accounted for 96 per cent of the global energy storage capacity, which grew to a staggering total of 153 GW installed worldwide.\nBioenergy is the largest RE contributor to total final energy demand (13 per cent) due to the widely prevalent traditional biomass use (8 per cent). In the electricity sector, generation from biomass saw an 11 per cent growth. Driven by the United States and Brazil, biofuels in the transport sector grew by 2.5 per cent. Of the 0.7 GW of geothermal power that came online in 2017, Turkey and Indonesia accounted for three-fourths, resulting in global installations to 12.8 GW. Ocean energy, with a total installed capacity of 529 MW, is beginning to take off with capacities for tidal stream and wave energy coming online in 2017.\nThough feed-in policies continue to be the mainstay, 84 countries have turned to tendering out RE. The resulting competition has massively driven down prices. Auctions in India for both, wind and solar, have resulted in tariffs below US $0.35/kWh. Moreover, offshore wind tenders in Germany and the Netherlands attracted zero-subsidy bids, a first of its kind.\nDistributed renewable energy is gaining ground, due to its ability to provide remote/rural households who lack access to energy. It served close to 300 million people by the end of 2016, concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. India saw unprecedented installations of 206 mini-grid systems during 2016-2017.\nNew Delhi-based think tank Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) believes that despite RE\u2019s massive role in the power sector, grid decarbonisation and RE integration have been sluggish. In agreement with REN21, the former calls for an immediate phase out of subsidies (US $370 billion as compared to the US $140 billion for renewable energy) and the inclusion of measures like carbon pricing that reflect the true cost of fossil fuels. RE\u2019s potential is tremendous and widely dispersed; it provides an opportunity for developing countries to leap frog and this is evident in the increasing investments drawn from them. CSE feels that as tremendous as the current status is, there is still considerable need to pick up the pace.\nRenewable Energy Wind Energy Solar Energy Hydropower Biofuels Ocean Thermal Energy Energy World\nWave energy could prove to be more steady, cheaper renewable energy source\nAs investment in energy declines, share of renewable energy improves\nAfrican countries launch Renewable Energy Initiative in Paris\nRenewables Global Futures Report: Great debates towards 100% renewable energy\nAn assessment of India\u2019s energy choices: managing India\u2019s renewable energy integration through flexibility\nRenewable energy and energy efficiency in Developing Countries: contributions to reducing global emissions\n100% Clean and Renewable Wind, Water, and Sunlight All-Sector Energy Roadmaps for 139 Countries of the World",

        "raw_content": "Waist and Hip Measurements\nThere are a number of factors that can help you estimate your risk for health problems like heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure and diabetes. I have discussed a number of these in this column and there is information throughout the Dr. Gourmet site in The health of it all\u2026 sidebars.\nI was reading your article about BMI and WHR today. I didn't understand what one had to do with the other. What is a good Waist to Hip Ratio and what is a bad one?\nWatch Your Waist - Not Just Your Weight\nWhen we talk about obesity it seems like we're most often talking about Body Mass Index (BMI). Certainly I've been doing a lot of talking and writing about it. There's another tool that doctors use to assess weight that I've talked about, just not quite as much: Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR).\nSlim Your Waist with Whole Grains and Legumes\nI've said for years that the most important factor in weight loss is the number of calories you eat versus the number of calories you burn. That said, we also know that some foods are more filling and satisfying than others, which is just one explanation for why those who eat more whole grains tend to gain less weight over the years. Further, those who eat more legumes seem to have a lower Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR).\nBut would eating more whole grains and legumes actually help you lose weight? A group of researchers in the United Kingdom and New Zealand designed a study to shed some light on the subject (J Am Coll Nutr 2010:29(4): 365-372).\nThey recruited 108 men and women who had a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 28 (30 is clinically obese) who did not have diabetes, heart disease or cancer to take part in an 18-month weight loss program. Each person was randomly assigned to one of two diets: the first, a control diet, included recommendations for 6 servings of breads and cereals per day as part of a balanced diet. The study group followed the same balanced diet, except that they were specifically instructed to consume only whole grain breads and cereals, and to substitute 2 servings of legumes in place of two of the recommended servings of breads and cereals.\nFor the first six months of the program, the participants met with a dietitian every 2 weeks, provided regular dietary records, and were supplied with key foods for their assigned diet. For the following 12 months the participants were contacted monthly.\nAfter six months both groups had lost about the same amount of weight and their average WHR and BMI had decreased about the same amount. After 18 months both groups had again lost about the same amount of weight, but those eating the diet higher in legumes had decreased their waist circumference by an average of almost 3 centimeters (about an inch and a half) - twice as much as the control group.\nThis research reinforces the earlier research showing that eating more legumes and whole grains can help you reduce your Waist to Hip Ratio. While the researchers were disappointed to find that those following the higher legume diet did not lose more weight than those on the control diet, other recent studies suggest that WHR might actually have more effect on your health than your Body Mass Index. In any event, whole grains, beans and other legumes are low in fat, delicious, and help fill you up. Choose whole wheat pasta, whole grain bread and brown rice to get more whole grains in your diet, and add more legumes to your diet with these recipes:\nSea Bass with White Beans and Tomato Vinaigrette",

        "raw_content": "Marine Corps adds \u2018file to trash bin\u2019 to Command Climate Survey procedures\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u2014 The Marine Corps has updated its procedures for command climate surveys (CCS) in order to reduce time between reading the surveys and throwing them into the garbage, sources confirmed today.\nThe surveys, which are used to evaluate the morale and welfare of unit troops, are taken anonymously and ask scaled questions about topics such as work environment, sexual harassment, and a commander\u2019s ability to delay approving leave requests.\n\u201cWe really feel that this new digital system is more efficient,\u201d said Lt. Col. Jim Stenson, officer in charge of Pentagon Administration and Resources Management. \u201cIt used to be that the surveys were taken, delivered to the OIC via the chain of command, and then printed and analyzed extensively before they would ever make it to the trash bin.\u201d\nWith the new system, however, incoming surveys are automatically placed into the commanding officer\u2019s Windows trash bin.\n\u201cSee how effective that is? We\u2019re finally moving this system into the digital age.\u201d\nThe CCS was a relatively new concept when it was established in a White Letter published by the Commandant of the Marine Corps in 2013. Before that, unit morale was delicately calculated by the decibel level of crying in the barracks at night. The CCS, however, gave commanders the tool to systematically collect, analyze, and ignore troop grievances with new speed and efficiency.\nLance Cpl. Devon Griffin, a motor transport operator with Joint Base Henderson Hall, expressed appreciation for the new design.\n\u201cThe old system was okay, but this new one is much quicker. It used to take forever to know that my CO didn\u2019t care that my barracks shower was backing up with sewage,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cNow I know, like, same day.\u201d\nStenson feels the same. The amount of surveys he processes used to take weeks. Now, it takes seconds.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the kind of efficiency you get when you pay a contractor only $1.2 million to design and install a system like this,\u201d he said, grinning, \u201cAnd you won\u2019t find that on any survey.\u201d",

The tanks that Turkey got used to seeing in the southeast of the country are not making an appearance in the big cities.\nThe last state of emergency was implemented in 1987 for the purpose of fighting the separatist Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), during the time of former Prime Minister Turgut \u00d6zal. It was effective in the overwhemlingly Kurdish provinces of the southeast, and paved the way for thousands of unsolved murders, systematic torture, the burning of villages and other severe human rights violations.\nLorin Dogant\u00fcrk can hardly sleep after the violent night of the failed coup\nAccording to the latest figures, Turkey's population stands at 78.7 million, and 47 million of these people were born after 1980 - the year of Turkey's most infamous military coup. This means that more than half of the Turks have never been confronted with the concept of a coup until now. \"I had heard a lot from my family about the previous coups,\" 19-year-old student Lorin Dogant\u00fcrk told DW, \"but it\u2019s very difficult to think that those events would be taken from the past and relived again today.\" The student admits that she is having trouble sleeping after the violent night of the coup attempt: \"The sounds of those jet planes, the news informing us that the death toll was rising, the bombings - it\u2019s as if it could happen again at any moment,\" Dogant\u00fcrk said.\nThe memory of the 246 people killed on the night of July 15 is still vivid throughout Istanbul. A huge panel has been erected in Taksim Square with the names of the victims. Television screens on subways and buses broadcast footage in memory of the dead.\nSome citizens think that the state of emergency declaration and the decline of tensions in the streets have brought some comfort. \"I have never experienced a state of emergency before. May it be effective - God willing,\" said the 27-year-old driver Ibrahim Kuncu. He added that the state of emergency has not affected his work so far. \"We are behind our state,\" he added - underlining that the state of emergency should remain in place until all those responsible for plotting the coup are punished.\nKuncu: 'May the state of emergency be effective'\n'When I saw parliament being bombed, I took to the street'\nThe shopowner Kenan Seker expects the state to catch the coup plotters right away. \"I won\u2019t forget July 15 for the rest of my life,\" the 40-year-old man said. When he saw the Turkish parliament building being bombed on TV, he took to the streets and saw a nearby military facility being shut down by the civilian crowd, he told DW. \"When we saw that the crowd that took to the streets was growing, it gave us strength and hope.\"\nThe present laws regarding the state of emergency are not very different from those during the previous one that was lifted by the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) in 2002, said journalist and writer Fehim Isik. \"With the state of emergency declaration, the government has collected vast powers. However, the president and the governmental authorities are saying that the declaration will only apply to the coup culprits who have infiltrated the state and will not affect the rest of society. What we first see is that in terms of content, the state of emergency is the same as the 1990s, but regarding its application, we are facing a different situation,\" Isik said.\nSeker: 'The crowd on the streets gave us hope'\nWill the situation normalize?\nIsik emphasized that if the powers granted through the state of emergency declaration are not used to weaken the opposition, the political situation in Turkey might normalize again. However, this would be an unlikely outcome: \"Unfortunately, it is impossible not to be pessimistic on this subject.\" He added that the oppressive policies implemented by the government over the past years were alarming in conjunction with the state of emergency declaration.\n\"Even during times of heavy conflict, a state of emergency was not declared [in the country's southeast],\" Isik said, referring to the renewed conflict between Turkish security forces and the PKK. \"But what is being implemented is even harsher than during the state of emergency years of the 1990s: Hundreds of people were killed in a basement as the whole world was watching. Unfortunately, those running this country are able to act carelessly and not even feel the need to abide by their own laws in terms of their policies towards the Kurds. I don't think there will be a serious move against the Kurds and their political structures. Of course, if Erdogan gets what he wants, and is able to bring the country under complete control, the situation can change,\" Isik concluded.\nThe state of emergency for Turkey\u2019s opposition\nTurkey's president has hosted opposition leaders at his residence to express gratitude for their support during the recent military coup attempt. But, many are wary of what's to come, reports Diego Cupolo from Ankara. (25.07.2016)\nTurkey issues first arrest warrants for journalists after attempted coup\nAuthorities in Turkey have issued arrest warrants for 42 journalists in the latest crackdown following a failed coup. EU Commission President Juncker has also said the country is in no place to become an EU member soon. (25.07.2016)\nTurkey captures key Gulen aide after coup attempt\nTurkish authorities have captured the \"right-hand man\" of US-based Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen, along with Gulen's nephew. The elite presidential guard is also to be disbanded after almost 300 members were detained.

After an extensive search, teams were unable to locate suspects or a campsite.\nThe area of the Upper San Leandro watershed is an expansive open-space, very heavily wooded with steep terrain comprising hundreds of acres and not open to the general public. The only public access is by special permit to access certain hiking trails.\nAnother EBRPD team returned on July 27, 2011 to search a different area for evidence. The teams located the exact location of the crime scene and recovered evidence of the firefight between the suspects and the officer including expended firearms ammunition casings from a high powered assault rifle. Crime scene technicians have recovered that evidence which will be sent to a crime lab.\nAdditional areas continue to be searched by EBRPD and Alameda County SWAT Teams on an ongoing basis. Due to weather and terrain conditions, and remote access challenges, the investigation will be ongoing and challenging for teams of officers.\nAerial surveillance has determined at least one active marijuana cultivation site exists in the vicinity of the incident. However it is unknown if the shooting was related to the marijuana cultivation site or related to some other illegal activity in the area. There are no known suspects at this time. This area is several miles south of Moraga within Alameda County and not connected to nor related to Rancho Laguna Park in Moraga.\nThis is an ongoing investigation and detectives are unable to release further information at this time.\nCaptain Mark Ruppenthal\nmruppenthal@ebparks.org",

The exhibit is launched each year by the star-studded Met Gala, where attendees are encouraged to dress according to the prescribed theme.\nThe museum said in a statement that the exhibit will get its framework from a 1964 essay by Susan Sontag, \u201cNotes on \u2018Camp.\u2019\u201d\nThe show \u201cwill examine how fashion designers have used their m\u00e9tier as a vehicle to engage with camp in a myriad of compelling, humorous, and sometimes incongruous ways,\u201d it said.\nThe Met Gala, formally known as the Costume Institute Benefit, is always chaired by a team of high-wattage celebrities, and next year will be no exception.\nThe May 6 affair, to be underwritten by Gucci, will be chaired by pop star and actress-of-the-moment Lady Gaga, tennis star Serena Williams, and singer Harry Styles, along with Gucci designer Alessandro Michele and, as always, Vogue editor Anna Wintour.\nSerena Williams and Lady Gaga are two of next year\u2019s Met Gala co-chairs.\nThe new theme seems decidedly more lighthearted than last year\u2019s hugely successful \u201cHeavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,\u201d about the relationship between fashion and Catholicism.\nThat sumptuous, sprawling show drew more visitors than any Costume Institute exhibit \u2014 more than 1.3 million to the Met\u2019s main Fifth Avenue location, and nearly 200,000 to its Cloisters branch \u2014 and indeed was one of the most attended shows in the museum\u2019s history.\n\u201cFashion is the most overt and enduring conduit of the camp aesthetic,\u201d said Andrew Bolton, curator in charge of the Costume Institute and creator of its blockbuster shows.

The plant operated by AENA \u2013 Aeropuertos y Navegaci\u00f3n A\u00e9rea (Spain\u2019s public airport authority), an old customer of KOLLVIK Recycling, S.L., will handle food waste from the airport\u2019s restaurants and cafeterias, as well as grass cuts and other green waste from landscaping and maintenance of the airport\u2019s gardens, apron and runway areas.\nThe plant featuring a BIOCOMPTM 15/45 composter is able to treat over 400kg of organic waste per day and will contribute to increase the sustainability of the airport, lower its waste treatment costs, and improve the local environment by removing almost 150 tons of waste a year from the local landfills and incinerators (an equivalent to 15 fully loaded garbage trucks). At the same time, the compost produced will be used by the airport management for gardening and landscaping, further reducing the airfield\u2019s landscaping expenses.\nKOLLVIK Recycling, S.L. is also responsible for the supply of other ancillary equipment like waste bins for separate collection, cribbles and other tools. The company is also in charge of educating and training the local restaurant\u2019s and cafeteria\u2019s operators on food waste separation.\nAENA has been a long term partner of KOLLVIK Recycling, S.L. and is a pioneer operator of composting equipment not only in the Basque Country, but also in the whole Iberian peninsula. This new plant is a response to the swift change in waste handling policy, following the entry into force of the European Union Directive on Waste Handling that has pushed for halting the construction of energy consuming and highly polluting unsustainable incinerators, in favor of sustainable strategies like recycling and composting.",

        "raw_content": "Student activists discuss being 'changed forever' by gun violence\nThe students will continue to visit communities this summer so more of their peers can \"have their voices heard.\"\nDavid Hogg, Emma Gonzalez and other March for Our Lives organizers will continue their campaign against gun violence this summer when they travel to communities across the country to meet with \u201cyoung people who need to have their voices heard,\u201d Gonzalez told attendees Thursday at the Education Writers Association\u2019s annual conference, held at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.\nSpeaking on a panel about student activism, Gonzalez joined fellow Marjory Stoneman Douglas High school senior David Hogg, Alex King of North Lawndale College Prep High School in Chicago and Jackson Mittleman of Newtown (Conn.) High School to share how they have been affected by shootings in their schools and communities, and how they are trying to sustain the nation\u2019s focus on gun control.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a universal conversation,\u201d Gonzalez said. \u201cAdults were looking at this in a single-faceted way. If you don\u2019t address the whole problem, it\u2019s never going to be solved. It\u2019s not just schools. If you just address schools, Las Vegas is still going to happen. So is Charleston.\u201d\nThe students\u2019 first goal is to get as many high school students to register to vote on May 29, Hogg said. Then on June 15, they\u2019ll have an event in Chicago, where King said the focus will be on trauma-informed education.\n\u201cIt is statistically proven that one exposure to a traumatic event actually affects brain development,\u201d King said, adding that he wants to see more attention to how the violence students experience outside of school affects learning. In Chicago, he added, \u201cwe don\u2019t have school shootings, we have daily shootings.\u201d\nMaking sure \u2018nobody would forget\u2019\nHogg said when the shooting at his Parkland, Fla., school began, he first thought it was a drill because the school had been planning one. But he began recording videos with his phone in case it was real and \u201choping our voices would carry on even if our souls wouldn\u2019t,\u201d he said.\nHe also continued to engage with the media because his sister lost four of her friends. \u201cI felt a sense of responsibility for my sister,\u201d he said. \u201cI wanted to make sure that nobody would forget about this.\u201d\nMarjory Stoneman Douglas High senior David Hogg talks with reporters.\nLinda Jacobson/Education Dive\nCiting statistics about the costs of gun violence and political arguments on both sides of the spectrum, Hogg said he would like to see more \u201cviolence interruption\u201d programs such as the Positive Peace Warrior Network, the Chicago program in which King participates. King, whose nephew was shot and killed last year, was among the students who former Secretary of Education Arne Duncan took to Florida to meet at Gonzalez\u2019s home.\nIn addition to experiencing his first time on a plane, and thinking Gonzalez\u2019s home was a hotel, he said he was impacted by seeing \u201cso many parents, so many children\u201d at the Parkland school.\nHe joined the Peace Warrior program, in which members meet with and provide support to students who have lost family members to gun violence, because he wanted one of their t-shirts. \u201cI was also told there was going to be free food,\u201d he said about meeting with counselors about the program.\nHe has also learned that he is a leader and that his voice matters, he said.\n\u201cIf I can get on board, I can get a lot more people to get on board,\u201d he said. \u201cI didn\u2019t plan the walkout, and for some reason, I end up being the leader of the walkout.\u201d\nThe current activism of students such as Hogg and Gonzalez has given students who lived through the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook School in Newtown, Conn., a chance to articulate what they\u2019ve been feeling for more than five years, Mittleman said.\n\u201cNewtown is so changed forever, and we don\u2019t want to be defined by this tragedy. I don\u2019t want to have a tattoo of tragedy and sadness,\u201d he said, adding that there are \u201cso many who emotionally can\u2019t take what happened. They all struggle with this, and you need to find the right time to talk about it.\u201d\nThe students on the panel also responded to questions about their confidence before crowds, their grasp of controversial issues, and the articulate way they present their cases. Hogg responded that what students are saying isn\u2019t new, but that now adults are paying attention.\n\u201cPeople sent us to high school so we could learn stuff,\u201d Gonzalez said, \u201cand they\u2019re amazed we paid attention.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Roof replacement at airport nears completion by Tia Lyons | December 11, 2017 at 5:00 a.m.\nWork is progressing on a project to replace the deteriorating roof at South Arkansas Regional Airport at Goodwin Field.\nBlake Dunn, of CADM Architecture, Inc., said the project is about 70 percent and could be completed within another week or so.\nThough dry weather has put much of the state under a burn ban and heightened wildfire alerts, weather conditions have been prime for construction.\nDunn said El Dorado Roofing Company, LLC, went to work two weeks ago to put a new roof on the airport terminal building.\nThe project got under months after the El Dorado Airport Commission decided to move forward with long-running plans for the much needed repairs and set about finding the cash to cover the cost of the repairs before wintry weather set in.\nAirport commissioners, city officials and Dunn agreed that the leaky roof would likely not make it through winter.\nIn October, Dunn told airport commissioners that the deterioration was accelerating.\n\u201cYou have odor and moisture in the building, and the longer you wait, the worse it will get,\u201d Dunn said at the time.\nCommissioners raced against the clock to secure funding for the project.\nEl Dorado Roofing was awarded the low bid of $114,200 and waited at the ready to start once the funding was in place.\nIn late October, the Arkansas Department of Aeronautics awarded a grant of $64,600, and the El Dorado Works Board and El Dorado City Council approved a match from the city\u2019s one-cent sales tax for economic development.\nThe total cost for the project has been set at $129,200 \u2014 $114,200 for construction; $15,000 for architectural and engineering services; and a $25,000 contingency.\nSo far, Dunn said costs are staying within budget, and he doesn\u2019t anticipate any overruns.\n\u201cThey\u2019re making really good progress. They\u2019ve been very\nfortunate out there,\u201d Dunn said. \u201cThere haven\u2019t been any (unexpected) issues. Everything is going the way we thought it was.\u201d\nThe airport commission will likely get an update on the project during a regular meeting at 3 p.m. today on the second-floor of the terminal building.\nEl Dorado Municipal Auditorium\nDunn said the city is still withholding a $25,000 payment on a renovation project that was completed in 2016 at the El Dorado Municipal Auditorium.\nThe $5.6 million refit included new-addition construction/expansion for the 60-year-old building and improvements to the roof and building systems.\nAfter being shut down for more than a year, the facility reopened in July 2016, with several punch-list items, mostly cosmetic, remaining.\nCADM drafted the master renovation plan for the auditorium.\nLast month, Mayor Frank Hash said that due to a recurring issue with the heating and air system, the city was withholding the final $25,000 payment to construction manager East-Harding Construction of Little Rock.\nDunn said CADM is working with East Harding and its subcontractor to troubleshoot the problem with the mechanical system.\nHe explained that the air compressors keep shutting off, and the monitoring system sends out an alarm signal alerting repair technicians about the problem.\nDunn said technicians from Carrier examined the problem this week, adding there is an extended warranty on the heating and cooling system.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a major issue, just an annoyance. It\u2019s a complex system, and everyone\u2019s working real hard to get that issue resolved,\u201d Dunn said. \u201cWe\u2019ve not pinpointed what it is yet. It\u2019s the only thing that\u2019s not been resolved and why we have not paid that contract in full yet.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "A well-known media industry newsletter recently ran an editorial comment questioning why editorial policies of US and European electronics magazines should differ so much when it comes to sourcing technical articles. It quite rightly said that most electronic design engineers want pretty much the same information\u2014technology reports that help them do their job. And, let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s a straightforward enough editorial ethos that most B2B publishers tend to grasp.\nHere\u2019s what the newsletter actually said: \u201cWhy is it that the top electronics press publishers in the US and the leading ones in Germany take such a different view of what makes a good contributed article? US editors seem determined to minimise any mention of a product in a contributed technical article. Some go so far as to refuse any article where the author\u2019s job title has the word \u2018marketing\u2019 in it.\u201d\nHmmm. Interesting. Being employed by US publishers Penton Media Incorporated as the London-based Editor-in-Chief of the pan-European edition of Electronic Design, I feel fairly well positioned to respond.\nAmerican publishing houses like Penton have always invested heavily in achieving good content by having well-staffed editorial departments. Currently, Electronic Design in the US has 12 staff editors and six contributing editors feeding high-quality content into the journal. In researching their articles, these editors will examine and question information they are given. Rightly so, it\u2019s part of their job to cut a path through the sales hyperbole often presented to them.\nIn contrast, European publishers traditionally run smaller editorial departments. The result is that European publications need to accept contributed articles that are written by specialists employed by electronic companies.\nThere\u2019s nothing wrong in doing this, provided editors stringently police the content for bias, sales hyperbole, and, of course, any potentially libellous statements. In fact, it\u2019s actually a \u201cplus\u201d point regarding contributed articles. Very often, they\u2019re written by engineers who eat, sleep, and drink their specialist subjects, and the end result is an article that contains valuable technical insights.\nAs for not accepting articles from marketing people, well all I can say is take a look in this edition\u2019s Technology section and read the multicore article contributed by Ian Bell, director of marketing at National Instruments UK & Ireland. He holds a Master of Engineering degree in Electronic and Electrical Engineering and is a member of the IET ... and it shows!\nTAGS: National Instruments",

This year\u2019s WED, organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), is themed on tackling the illegal trade in wildlife, and aims to mobilize global action around the issue.\nSpeaking at a meeting of the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment in Cairo, Angola\u2019s Environment Minister Maria de Fatima Jardim said, \u201cThe Commission Against Environmental Crimes has presented a decree banning the sale of ivory and ivory artifacts in Angola and we are deploying a wildlife crime unit at Luanda\u2019s international airport. We are determined to end the trade in ivory and build a new Angola, in which both people and our unique species can thrive.\u201d\nLittle is known about the size of Angola\u2019s remaining elephant population, which historically lived in the southeast of the country. However, the results of recent surveys, due to be released in the coming months, are anticipated to confirm heavy population declines during Angola\u2019s decades-long civil war.\n\u0093The illegal trade in wildlife destroys ecosystems and livelihoods, compromises rule of law and national security, and undermines sustainable development. In the last few years we have seen strong steps to combat this scourge, including the first UN resolution on wildlife trafficking. Angola\u2019s commitments are another milestone and send a powerful message to poachers, and the international criminal networks that back them, that they have no future.\u0094\n\u2014 Achim Steiner, UNEP Executive Director",

        "raw_content": "Home People Literature and the Arts Music: History, Composers, and Performers: Biographies Aram Ilich Khachaturian\nSoviet composer Aram Ilich Khachaturian (1903-1978) is best known for two works: Piano Concerto (1936) and the ballet Gayane (1942), which includes the popular and rhythmic Sabre Dance. His compositions incorporate the folk tunes of his native Armenia and other parts of Russia.\nAram Khachaturian was born on June 6, 1903, in the Armenian community of Tiflis, Georgia, Russian Empire (later part of the U.S.S.R. and now Tbilisi in the Republic of Georgia). Music was not on his mind at the Tiflis Commercial School where he debated between a career in medicine or engineering. In 1920, however, Georgia became part of the new Soviet Union. The following year, Khachaturian, then 17, went to Moscow with his oldest brother, Suren, who was director of the Moscow Art Theater. Like his brother, Khachaturian Russianized name to Khachaturov, which he used for a period of 18 years. Influenced by his brother's work in Moscow, Khachaturian fell under the magic spell of the music world. Although he began to study biology at Moscow University, he took cello lessons as well at the Gnessin Music School.\nEarly Music Career\nKhachaturian had hardly mastered the basics of musical composition when he completed his first work, The Dance for violin and piano (1926). By the following year, with the publication of Poem in C Sharp Minor, his extensive use of folk music from his native land was already evident. Said Gerald Abraham in Monthly Musical Record, \"The Khachaturian of this period was in the position of an eager, intelligent child who has just been given the run of a toyshop \u2026 Like many other young musicians with fuller cultural backgrounds, Khachaturian discovered music through contemporary music, and only later developed a love of the classics.\"\nOver the next several years, Khachaturian studied and also taught at the Moscow Conservatory. Influenced by contemporary Western music, particularly the works of Maurice Ravel, his compositions began to show the maturity, mastery, and rich stirring color that so dominated his music.\nThe first of Khachaturian's two best-known works, Piano Concerto (1936) was first performed in the United States at the Juilliard Graduate School of Music in New York City on March 15, 1942, followed by the first public performance, by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, that July. Said the music critic of the World-Telegram, \"There is no piano concerto in the entire literature to equal this one in sheer energy, speed, and sheer drive\u2026. It happens also to be pretty good music\u2026.\"\nOther works followed, most notably: Happiness, a ballet (1939); Violin Concerto in D Minor (1940), for which he won the Stalin Prize, Second Degree; Second Symphony (1943), written for the 25th anniversary of the Russian revolution; Masquerade (1944), a symphonic suite in the tradition of lavish classical Russian music; and Spartak, a ballet (1953). In addition, he composed violin and cello concerto and numerous minor works.\nThe second of Khachaturian's best-known works is Sabre Dance from his ballet Gayane (1942). This rhythmically stirring piece has received popular recognition since it was first performed. It is generally played in four-quarter rather than the three-quarter time in which it was written. First performed by the Leningrad Kirov Theatre of the Opera and Ballet, it is set on a collective Soviet farm just before World War II. He received his second Stalin Prize for this piece.\nCriticism and Restoration\nKhachaturian wrote numerous musical works, including marches, dances, chamber music, and film scores. During World War II, he was president of the Moscow Union of Composers and belonged to the Battle Song Staff, which wrote songs for the Russian army.\nAfter the war, however, in 1948, Khachaturian, along with leading composers Sergei Prokofiev and Dmitri Shostakovich, was accused by the Central Committee of the Russian Communist party of having \"antidemocratic tendencies\" in his music. He was censured by the critics even after he admitted to such charges in public. However, he was restored to favor later that yer when he was praised for his film biography of Lenin. In 1954, he was named People's Artist of the Soviet Union. Five years later, he was awarded the Lenin Prize in recognition of his work. Although the official criticism was later charged to excesses of the Stalin period, it moved Khachaturian closer to Soviet political thinking in the arts. He frequently appered in world forums in the role of champion of an apologist for the Soviet idea of creative orthodoxy. His later works were often criticized as repetitive and eclectic.\nKhachaturian's wife, Nina, was also prominent in Soviet cultural life and wrote songs under the name of Nina Makarova. Khachaturian lived in Moscow until his death on May 1, 1978.\nGustav Schneerson, Aram Khachaturian, translated into English by Xenia Denko in 1959, was published by the Moscow Foreign Language Publishing House and reflects Soviet views; Gerald Abraham's, Eight Soviet Composers (1943), includes a chapter on Khachaturian. \u25a1\n\"Aram Ilich Khachaturian.\" Encyclopedia of World Biography. .

Tiflis (now Tbilisi). Khachaturian moved to Moscow in the early 1920s and attended (1929\u201334) the Moscow Conservatory. At first studying the cello, he began to compose c.1926. Colorful, energetic, emotionally powerful, and texturally rich, his music often uses Armenian and Central Asian folk idioms. His piano concerto (1936), violin concerto (1940), the ballet Gayan\u00e9 (1942, containing the famous Sabre Dance), the orchestral suite Masquerade (1944), and the ballet Spartacus (1956) are especially popular. Despite official Soviet criticism of his style (at first acclaimed and honored, he was denounced as a formalist in 1948 and rehabilitated a decade later), Khachaturian continued to create works of harmonic complexity until his death.\n\"Khachaturian, Aram Ilich.\" The Columbia Encyclopedia, 6th ed.. .

It is also the best way to learn some new things and put them to use in your areas of interest.

There are many people who do not get any kind of fulfillment even though they try many things in their life and this can lead to depression and a sense of void in them. Volunteering brings fun and fulfillment to your life. Volunteering is a way through which you can find new interests and bring your hidden passions to light. When you volunteer in some work, you can easily find a way to unwind and relax after a hectic day at school or at work or even doing the daily chores at home. It can also build vigor; grant you motivation and insight to a better professional as well as personal life.\nMost people volunteer to find a time for the things that they love doing. This may involve planting pods in the community garden or taking the dogs of an animal shelter for a long walk as well as setting up a camp for the children etc..\nRecognize Your Targets and Interests When Volunteering\nIf you have identified your interests and goals in the right manner, it will make your volunteering experience richer and enjoyable. Volunteering opportunities that work in sync with your interests and goals are fun to perform and seem fulfilling as well.\nFinding the Appropriate Volunteering Opportunities\nThere are numerous opportunities for volunteering available for one to explore. They key is to find the right task for volunteering that will be suitable for the interests that you have. It is also important to match the level of commitment that every volunteering task demands. These questions will help you in finding the right volunteering task and narrow down the options as well:\nDo you prefer working in a team or on an individual basis?\nWill you work well in a visible role or behind the scenes tasks would be better?\nWould you prefer working from home or with adults orwith animals or children?\nWhat is the time limit that you wish to spend in volunteering?\nHow much responsibility are you willing to take?\nWhat are the skills that can get you a job in volunteering?\nWhat are the causes that are of prime importance to you?\nConsider several volunteer possibilities. When you are looking to get the right opportunity as a volunteer, spread your search horizon to more than one organization or a specific job. At times, the opportunities look good on paper, but the reality might be something else. Try to visit the organizations physically to understand it better. If you are satisfied as a volunteer, you can contribute to it in a better way.\nYou Can find Volunteering Opportunities at:\nSenior centers or libraries\nIn various service organizations such as Rotary clubs or Lions clubs\nMuseums, monuments and community theaters\nWildlife centers, local animal shelters and rescue organizations\nSports teams, after-school programs and youth organizations\nWorshipping places such as synagogues or churches\nVarious online databases.\nHow to Get the Best of the Volunteering Work\nThrough volunteering, you will be donating some time from your daily schedule, so it should be something that brings you happiness. It is also imperative to make sure that the position you are holding is good and will bring out the best in people for whom you are working.\nClear All your Doubts: You want to be sure about the experiences you are learning and whether they are right for your goals, skills and the time you are investing in doing it. If you have any queries, it is always better to speak about it. Your volunteer coordinate might be able to address the commitment and if when there is any training available, ask about all the questions that you are facing while being a part of that skill.\nSpeak up if you Have Any Issues: Make a point to speak up when you are in a bad situation. Speak about your issues to the organization and try focusing on another task where you fit in.\nUnderstand the Requirements Properly: Before beginning with the entire volunteering, understand the environment and know the time that you are allotting for the commitment. Begin with smaller tasks, so that you do not find it difficult to manage the tasks at a later stage.\nMost Importantly- 'Enjoy Yourself': The experiences of the best volunteer benefits the organization as well as himself or herself. If you are not enjoying, ask the right reason to yourself. Pinpointing the things that you are finding difficult can help you in focusing better.",

        "title": "Ask a Comedian: Cameron Esposito Is Sure She Can Fix Your Life",
        "raw_content": "Cameron Esposito Is Sure She Can Fix Your Life\nOr, at the very least, make you feel like less of a monster.\n\"I have a major qualification for this,\" Cameron Esposito says before doling out life advice to her fans. \"I've listened to Dan Savage's podcast for years, so I do feel like I have a bit of his not-qualified-to-give-advice-but-gives-the-best-advice quality running through my veins. And I'm a little bit bossy. That's perfect, right?\" As it turns out, it is. The comedian has thoughtful, careful advice for those dealing with personal issues, which she has given in this edition of Ask A Comedian.\nEsposito has a new comedy series, Take My Wife, which she made with her real-life wife Rhea Butcher, premiering today on Seeso. The show, also written and produced by Esposito, hits close to home for the couple and follows their trials and tribulations around the L.A. comedy scene. \"It was so much and also so difficult working with your spouse,\" Esposito admits. \"Working with your wife is a living nightmare and also the best thing.\"\n(Bonus: If you like the series, Butcher has a new comedy album coming out on Kill Rock Stars on August 19.)\nHere's Esposito's Dan Savage-inspired wisdom. \"I think I solved everybody's problems and everybody's lives are better,\" the comedian confirms. \"I'm sure that's true.\"\nSo many bad things keep happening in the news and it's been making me so depressed. I feel like the world is ending. Do you have a suggestion on how I can feel better about what's going on in the world? \u2014Frankie, Denver, CO\nIt's okay to let the things that are happening in the world affect you. It means you're not a monster. So if you are feeling sad or upset, part of that is that you're a feeling person who has the ability to connect with other people. Hold on to that. But social media and the Internet can really amplify these situations because they become an echo chamber for them, and it's a 24 hour news cycle. So the answer is to feel it and then to get off social media and go outside. Take a walk or read something that doesn't constantly update. There are also a lot of moments where bad things are not happening. I also think you can find practical ways to respond to the news that might make you feel a little bit more lifted up. You could either read again and again about the shooting in Orlando, or you could go to a fundraiser or a protest or find some positive change being made in the queer community. So, there are different ways of participating in tragedy.\nAs a pretty obvious lesbian, I'm often approached by men who ask me for advice on how to make their girlfriend orgasm. What is a witty response that will also make them leave me alone? \u2014Sabrina, Brooklyn, NY\nA witty response is, \"If you're asking me for advice on how to please your girlfriend, that's your first problem.\" Different women's bodies are different! So this terrifies me for these girlfriends. But also: You don't even need to respond. You can just walk away. You don't owe those guys anything.\nIt's okay to let the things that are happening in the world affect you. It means you're not a monster.\nI don't date very often and usually spend my time at the office or at the gym. I recently started seeing this girl and it's great, but I get so nervous every time I see her. Is that normal? \u2014Jim, St. Louis, MO\nThat sounds like a good situation. Doesn't that mean you have a vested interest in her? You care about letting her see the best side of you, which means you are actually interested in this person. So, this is great. Congratulations! If you're nervous that means you feel like you have something to lose.\nWhat should I do if Trump gets elected? \u2014Hallie, New York, NY\nYou should spend every moment of the next several months making sure that does not happen. Do not allow this to happen. This is not a normal political candidate who you might have differing political opinions from. This is a person who is deliberately playing on fear and divisiveness to harm everyday Americans who might happen to be gay or who might happen to be women. We have to fight. Don't even contemplate the possibility.\nHow can I get over an abusive relationship? It's been four months and she's already with someone else. I feel anxious, like it will happen again. I feel like I can't breathe every time I think about getting into a new relationship. No one ever talked to me about it, because people forget that lesbian relationships can be abusive, too. I still blame myself because of it. What should I do? \u2014Robyn, Foz do Iguacu, Parana, Brazil\nFirst of all, my heart goes out to you and I hope you know you're worth more than that. That does not have to be how the relationships in your life are going forward. As far as that person moving forward and having a new relationship, you are the one who is a success here. You are the one who got yourself out of there. There's nothing that person could ever do that could eclipse your ability to take care of yourself. I would recommend speaking with a therapist or a counselor so you don't have to deal with this alone. I would also recommend being patient with yourself. Four months, in a lifetime, is actually really short. You will heal, and it will happen when it happens.\nI feel like my dog loves my husband more than me. How can I make her love me the most? \u2014Penny, San Diego, CA\nIt's never going to happen. Your dog loves your husband more than you. My dog loves my wife more than me, because she was the first person my dog connected with. So maybe you don't need to focus on requiring the most of your dog's love. Also, there's really no worst case scenario in a dog that loves you just a little because a dog that loves you just little still loves you more than any human ever could.\nI'm 31 years old and trans. I'm about six months into my transition and pre-op. How can I make myself more attractive to lesbians? Are there any style tips you can share? \u2014Robin, Atascadero, CA\nIt's all about boots, jackets, and haircuts. So first, watch some Tegan and Sara music videos. They have great style and they are always at the forefront of cool queer clothes and fashions. Second, Wildfang is a really great clothing line\u2014they say for tomboys, but we know what that means. I'm also aware of the fact that because you're a trans woman you might have larger feet than other women might. If you can't fully physically embody your ideal yet, the number one thing women love in other women is confidence. Be happy about where you are in this process and your evolution will help you more than anything else. This is for everyone: Women love confidence.\nHow can I exist in this life without a terrible nine-to-five job? \u2014Natalie, Brooklyn, NY\nWell, how did I do it? I started cobbling together a million tiny jobs on 24-hour cycles. So some things happened in the morning and some things happened at midnight. That's still kind of how I make my living! So the answer, I think, is creativity. Nine-to-five jobs can be frustrating because you're stuck in the same place, but they also provide stability. If you don't want to do that, just prepare yourself to think creatively. Give yourself a bunch of options and treat it like a small business in whatever field you're in.\nI'm really out of shape. I never exercise and I mostly eat pizza and burgers. I'm really ashamed of how I look and I want to do better, but I don't know how to start. What's a good way to slowly get myself on track? \u2014James, Pittsburgh, PA\nWalking! Walking is a really good way to get yourself on track. You don't suddenly have to run a 5K right out of the gate. Start by trying to walk half a mile every day and work up to three miles. You could go to a gym or you could go outside. You could also go to your local high school and walk around a track\u2014assuming that's not a creepy thing to do.

        "title": "Introducing Community Maps Editor",
        "raw_content": "For several years, ArcGIS users have helped to enhance the quality of Esri maps by sharing their data with Esri through our Community Maps program. Through Community Maps, we have enhanced the Esri basemaps, imagery, elevation, and geocoding services by including authoritative data from thousands of organizations in our user community.\nThe first and still most active area of participation has been with the basemaps (e.g. Topographic, Streets, Canvas, and more). Over the years, thousands of communities in the map have been enhanced with detailed data made available by our users. These communities include countries, states and provinces, tribal nations, counties, cities, and even school campuses. In fact, many of the most useful and attractive communities in the basemaps today are places where users have contributed very detailed data, such as the many universities that have shared detailed data for their campus.\nIn the example above, our users have shared geographic data that they created or edited using ArcGIS Desktop or other GIS software. The users have then delivered the data to Esri in file format (e.g. FGDB) or, more recently, feature services for it to be transformed and loaded into our own global database and then cached into our basemap tiles. This process works great to leverage existing datasets with large numbers of features. However, it is not ideal if the data does not yet exist or users just want to make a small number of enhancements to the map. That\u2019s where the new Community Maps Editor app comes in \u2026.\nWith the new Community Maps Editor app, which is now in public beta release, users can create and edit detailed features for special areas of interest within their community. These special areas of interest (AOIs) might be iconic parks, recreation areas, sports stadiums, school campuses, or other places that are prominent within the community. The types of detailed features that can be created include buildings, parking lots, walking paths, sports facilities, grass, trees, and points of interest. Check out the story map below to see several examples of these AOIs that have already been enhanced through the app.\nClick to view examples of AOIs enhanced with the Community Maps Editor app.\nAs you can see in these examples, the Community Maps Editor app enables you to add rich, detailed features to the map to highlight what makes that place special or important to the community. The added features can be viewed through a variety of attractive map styles available for the Esri Vector Basemaps to pick the one that works best for you and your community. You can then use the map in your private or public facing web maps, story maps, or web sites that you create.\nThe data that is created or edited through the Community Maps Editor app is intended for use in the Esri basemaps (both vector and raster tile formats). Before the data is added to the Esri basemaps, it must be reviewed and accepted by Esri staff. During the beta period, we intend to review data on a weekly basis. The data that is accepted will be integrated into Esri\u2019s global database, and processed for inclusion in the next scheduled update of the Esri basemaps, which happen about every 3 weeks. The data will first appear in the vector basemaps, and later in the raster basemaps.\nIn addition, Esri will be making the data that has been contributed and accepted available as \u2018open\u2019 data so that the contributor of the data, and other users, have access to the data for use beyond the basemaps. This data will be shared as a hosted feature layer in ArcGIS Online that users can access, with the ability to export all or part of the data for offline use. This data will be provided under a Create Commons by Attribution (CC by 4.0) license, with attribution to be provided collectively to \u2018Esri Community Maps Contributors\u2019.\nThe Community Maps Editor is now in public beta release. During this time, users are invited to start using the app to enhance special areas of interest within their community. We would encourage you to identify 1-2 small AOIs that are important to your local community (e.g. local park or recreation area, high school campus, sports stadium, etc.) and then check out how it appears in the current Esri basemaps (and imagery). If you believe there are important features that are missing in the map, or the existing features could be significantly improved, then we would encourage you use the app to enhance the map.\nRequirements: to access to the Community Maps Editor app, you need to an ArcGIS Online subscription account. This is required to enable secure access to the app and to know which user has edited features. You do not need to install any special software. You will be able to use the app through your modern web browser (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.).\nTo get started, we\u2019d encourage you to watch the short videos below and then visit the Community Maps Website to access the app.\nVideo: Introducing the Community Maps Editor App (2:11)\nVideo: Accessing the Community Maps Editor App (1:24)\nApp: Visit Community Maps Website to Access the Editor App (Edit Features)\nOnce you are using the app, check out the Help and Feedback for additional tips and tricks for using the app and for providing feedback to the Community Maps team. (Tip #1: the first thing you\u2019ll do to edit the map is to create an Area of Interest feature, which will be the \u2018workspace\u2019 in which you will make all other edits for your first project.) We\u2019ll be updating these resources based on your feedback during the beta period.\nWe look forward to seeing (and featuring) some of the special areas that you enhance in the map. Happy mapping!\nOh, just one more tip: check out the \u2018m\u2019 hotkey when drawing a line or polygon! I don\u2019t know what the \u2018m\u2019 stands for exactly, but it was a major time saver for me when drawing features with curves and straight lines.\nAbout\tDeane Kensok\nDeane Kensok has been with Esri since 1990 and is currently the ArcGIS Content CTO and a member of the Living Atlas team. For the past twenty years, Deane has worked on a variety of Internet mapping and data publishing products and projects, which have led to his current work with ArcGIS Online and the Living Atlas.",

        "title": "Term Paper: Ngos Geography Groundwork and Initial \u2026 | 11 Pages",
        "raw_content": "Ngos Geography Groundwork and Initial Term Paper\n[. . .] Nonetheless, as Coffman (1997) suggests, even the above mentioned good names in the educational sector in Pakistan, provide one of the best educational facilities that are high in quality but extremely high in charges as well; a fact that precludes many students not to even apply for such institutions due to lower per capita income (Coffman, 1997). In addition to the above, the educational scenario becomes further bleak in Pakistan due to the fact that \"many other private institutions have been opened that have not come under the purview of any official body and that violate basic ethical, if not legal, standards in attracting their paying customers. Indeed, many private institutions are now exhibiting free-wheeling, unregulated, and brazen market tactics, where corruption, smuggling, counterfeiting, and trademark infringement are the rule\" (Coffman, 1997).\nThus, based on the above discussion, it is evident that among all other third world countries, Pakistan is one of the most deserving candidates for our million dollar donation. However, our research findings indicate a lot many problems related to establishing and managing a non-governmental organization in Pakistan. Some of them are as follows:\nExpected Problems, Threats & Respective Solutions:\nLanguage Problem:\nFirst of all, the common language spoken in Pakistan is Urdu which is also its national language. Apart from that, in the interior areas of Pakistan as provinces change languages understood and spoken change too. For example in Punjab, most of the people speak and understand only Punjabi or else Urdu but English is not easily understood neither commonly spoken. In Sindh, people usually speak Sindhi and can easily understand Urdu but English again is not the basic language of communication among the masses. Therefore, in order to start and manage our non-governmental organization in Pakistan, language might pose some serious administrative problems. In order to solve this problem, we will hire one of the Pakistanis to look after the entire processing and management activities of our organization, a person of repute, experience and bilingual, having complete knowledge and ability to speak and understand both Urdu and English. This employee will also be responsible for working as an effective communication bridge between the donors, receivers and our organization.\nMisinterpretations Regarding the Role of NGOs:\nThe majority in Pakistan doubts the activities as well as the intentions of the functional non-governmental organizations. As the media and news reports reveal the people's attitude towards the non-governmental organizations, \"Most of these NGOs are headed by influential, politician, bureaucrats and rich people/elite. These are the people who plunder in the name of \"NGOs\" and deprive the deserving people of their rights. There are NGO people who were riding on bicycles in the past, now own more than one vehicle such as Honda Accord and Pajero/Land Cruiser at their home. Those had pennies in their pocket until yesterday now having accounts in millions of dollar, what to say accounts in rupees. The ill-mannered people now have their meals in five star hotels\" (Ecotourism Society Pakistan, 1999). Thus, establishing an NGO and gaining confidence of the public will certainly be a great challenge which our organization will face by publishing audit reports throughout the year in order to satisfy the public at large and to remain clean.\nCommon Practice of Child Labor:\nAnother problem that the existing non-governmental organizations are facing is directly related to the low per capita income in Pakistan and constant inflation that has compelled many households to readily accept the practice of child labor thereby encouraging the younger ones to work and become earning hands rather than pursuing their educational goals therefore working in such an environment can be quite challenging. Moreover, the bureaucratic system also encourages the practice of child labor because of cheap labor that the industrialists and bureaucrats can employ in their business ventures. Therefore, in order to manage a non-profit organization in such a taxing working milieu is certainly a great challenge. Therefore, we would basically start mental conditioning and spreading awareness at the higher, more executive level than beginning from the lower stratums of the society.\nRegistration and other Legal Problems:\nAnother problem that our NGO might face is the hindrance in the form of convoluted and unfair procedures of registration in Pakistan that all NGOs have to face while they plan to get a license to establish their organization in this third world country. On this account, we have decided to hire a reputable as well as a highly skillful and experienced lawyer that would help us get hold of a license to operate in Pakistan (Ecotourism Society Pakistan, 1999).\nAfter clearly summarizing our research findings, the assigned team will locate the most suitable place in the country where we can establish our organization and can smoothly and most conveniently perform our work and expand our network with the passage of time. After looking for the right locality where our project will take its pragmatic form, the team members under my supervision will then make a list of all the possible items needed in the centre like furniture and other significant equipment and office material. Then, the step of approving that material from the board will come and I would invite at least one of the board members to visit the place selected to run and manage the project in Pakistan. Once, the team will manage to get hold of a license to work in Pakistan as a non-governmental organization, preparations will be made to finalize the list of those institutes that require funding. After short-listing the most deserving institutes, based on need and credibility as well as experience, accordingly these academic institutes will be contacted through formal invitations to discuss further terms and conditions with our organization. Now based on the above discussion and conclusions made from the research findings, our organization is all set to follow the steps in order to soon establish a branch of our non-governmental organization and begin working as a literacy spreading non-profit organization.\nEvaluation & Personal Opinion\nHence from the above discussion, it is evident that Pakistan which is one of the third world countries has a government that has so far failed to provide its people even with the basic amenities required by all human beings. Apart from the prevalent poverty, people have been deprived of adequate shelters or any permanent place of protection, malnutrition is ubiquitous and education (particularly the primary level of education which is not only the right of every human being but which is a must in the religion followed by all Muslims worldwide that is Islam) has flagrantly small percentage. Therefore, after realizing that the government has not and will not offer the basic necessities to survive the coldness of this wintry world, the private sector flourished. With the private firms making their way into the streamline activities, education as a sector and a necessity ameliorated with the passage of time. Thus by utilizing the available \"human, natural and financial resources,\" the people of Pakistan have managed to come a long way thereby having a rich history of over fifty years as a struggling nation though. However, reviewing several governmental reports and news from the media as well as assessment reports by some of the Pakistanis in the related field, being the executive director of the above mentioned project, I have learnt that since non-governmental organizations (abbreviated as NGOs) play a highly significant role thereby contributing a great deal towards the prosperity of a country, establishing our branch of non-governmental organization in Pakistan that would help this country become more literate by augmenting the literacy rate among the Pakistani masses, is a highly pragmatic idea and one of the best possible ways to utilize our one million dollar donation. In addition to the above, the growing awareness among the masses suggests that people of Pakistan are interested and desperately look forward to external aid to become literate as well as to increase literacy in their country. Plus, the fact that eleven thousand non-governmental organizations are working at present and operating in this Pakistani working milieu reveals that NGOs do work in Pakistan. The number of students seeking scholarship shows two sides of the coin. First, the meager number of students holding scholarship suggests that there is an exigent need for further investment injections in the educational sector in Pakistan. Secondly, this number presents the interest of the students. Thus, both the merit-based scholarship being offered in Pakistan and the need-based scholarships encourage our organization to go ahead with our clearly drafted strategic plan to establish our branch in Pakistan and provide assistance to this third world country that needs handsome donations to bring about some positive changes in its educational arena. Nonetheless, where there are bright prospects for our non-governmental organization to open up its branch in Pakistan in order to spread education, there are various problems being faced by the non-governmental organizations presently functioning in Pakistan. Some of these problems are related to\u2026 [END OF PREVIEW]\nGeography of South America Essay \u2026\nGeography is the study of how people are interacting with the world around them.

        "raw_content": "Research your house's history\nPrecise addresses are a modern development and names for houses have often changed over the years. In some towns, street numbering may also have changed.\nThe sources in the Essex Record Office are most likely to help you find the names of house owners and occupiers, but it is not usually possible to find when the house or any part of it was built.\nMost of the documents useful for house history are catalogued and can be found and ordered on this site. You may find that a search for the name of a property finds only a few references or none at all. The catalogue description is a brief guide to the contents and not necessarily a complete list, e.g. a map may show your house, but the description does not mention or any other houses on the map. It is advisable to search for the name of the parish to see what other sources may be helpful to your research.\nTithe (D/CT) and enclosure (Q/RDc) maps and awards\n1. Ordnance Survey maps\nHouse searches generally start with Ordnance Survey sheets. From the 1870s to the 1930s there are sheets at a scale of 6 inches and 25 inches to 1 mile. For some town centres there are first edition sheets at a scale of 120 inches to one mile. You should be able to identify your house or the land where it stands. These are a good place to start as an area can appear very different on a map without the later housing development shown and it can be easier to go from this to earlier maps. We do not hold complete sets of Ordnance Survey sheets. Some more recent Ordnance Survey maps may be available at local libraries in Essex. Please ask a member of staff for assistance with maps when you visit.\n2. Tithe (D/CT) and enclosure (Q/RDc) maps and awards\nThe Tithe Act of 1836 led to the conversion of tithes (literally the tenth part of the produce of land and stock given to support the clergy) payable to the parish church to a rent charge on the property. Most of the parishes in Essex were surveyed in the 1830s and 1840s and in many cases the first complete map of a parish was produced.\nIn the late 18th and early 19th centuries there was a move to enclose land. Where this happened the tithes would often be commuted at the same time and if there is an enclosure map, there will not always be a tithe map. In many counties there are as many or more enclosure maps than tithe maps. In Essex enclosure mostly only affected the north-west of the county.\nEach field and property on a tithe or enclosure map has a number and this matches a number in the award. Having identified the property or piece of land, the award has the name and description of the property, cultivation (e.g. arable, pasture), the acreage and the names of the owners and occupiers.\nThe original tithe and enclosure maps have been photographed to save damage to the original documents and it is not normally possible to view the original of a map. The awards can be found by searching for tithe or enclosure, award and the name of a parish. Many of the tithe awards have been transcribed and these can be easier to use than the originals.\nDigital images of many of the enclosure maps have been added to Essex Archives Online and CD copies of these maps can be seen at the Saffron Walden Access Point.\nBefore the Tithe Act some landowners reached private agreements with parishes to commute tithes and this land may not be shown on the map. Land that belonged to the parish did not pay tithes and this land may also not be shown.\n3. Other maps\nChapman and Andr\u00e9's map of dates from 1777 and is on a scale of 2\u00bd inches to the mile. Larger buildings will be shown on this. Copies of this can be seen in the Essex Record Office Searchroom.\nEstate maps were commissioned by landowners to show their lands and date from the late 16th to the 19th century. As landowners were interested in their own lands, maps can often cover parts of several adjoining parishes rather than the whole of one parish. A search for map and the name of a parish will locate all the older estate maps deposited here. The description should state that the areas covered include the east of one parish or the north of another and this should give enough information to identify maps covering the area of interest. Digital images and photographic copies may be used instead of the original map but this information will appear in the description on Seax or when you try to order the original.\nDeposited plans (Q/RUm) are plans of railways, canals, turnpikes and other utilities. Deposited plans of railways may show some of the adjoining properties and the accompanying awards give brief details of the landowners. These can be found by a search for deposited plan and the name of a parish.\nSome early census returns for individual parishes have survived and have been deposited in the Essex Record Office and a search for census and a date or a place would locate any entries.\nElectoral registers can be used to find further details of the owners or occupiers of a property. The earliest registers date from 1832. It is important to remember that the right to vote has not always been universal and individuals may not appear because of this.\nElectoral registers can be found by searching for the phrase electoral register and the place name. You can specify a date or date range to refine your search.\n6. Sale catalogues\nWe have an extensive collection of sale catalogues from the late 19th century onwards. These can include catalogues for particular properties, and also the sale of land for building or the sale of particular developments.\nYour own house deeds may tell you more information about previous owners and it may be helpful to look at these before you start your research. Deeds have also been deposited and can be located by a search. Remember that your house may have changed its name and even address so try searching for alternative names or even generally for deeds in a parish.\nProperties until 1925 could be held either as freehold, leasehold or copyhold. Copyhold properties were held from the lord of the manor by copy of the court roll. Land could be bought and sold or bequeathed as normal, but the transfer of \u2018ownership' occurred when the land was surrendered to the lord of the manor and the new \u2018owner' was admitted. Deeds can include these surrenders and admissions. The manorial court rolls and later books would record these details and it is possible to trace individuals in court rolls and also the ownership of property. Manorial surveys will list all the copyholders of the manor and rentals the rent paid. Before 1733 all court records, including manorial court records, were kept in Latin. A search for manor and the name of the parish, with, if necessary, a date range will locate any relevant documents.\nA property may originally have been part of a large estate. In these cases it is possible that records of the estate, including rentals, surveys, maps and leases, may contain references to the property. Histories of the parish or other local information will help to identify large houses in the area. If the records of an estate have been deposited you can use the Browse Catalogue feature to look for records.\nRate books were kept listing all those paying rates. From the late 19th century these can be found as part of local authority records. Before this individual parishes were responsible for collecting poor, church and highway rates. These rate books are in parish collections (D/P). A search for rates and a parish name or local authority area name should locate any rate books.\nLand Tax assessments (Q/RPl) have been deposited and are available on microfiche in the Essex Record Office and at Colchester and Southend Libraries. These cover the years c.1780-1832 and list owners or occupiers, with a brief description of the property and the tax payable. The records of the hearth tax (Q/RTh), 1662-1673 have also been deposited, with copies available. These list the name of each owner or occupier and the number of hearths in the house. Both the land tax and hearth tax are arranged by hundred (ancient divisions of the county).\nFrom the late 19th century building plans for a property may survive. These were submitted to the local authority for approval under their bye-laws. A search for the street or house name should locate any building plans.\nIf you are able to trace the owners of a property it may be worthwhile checking to see whether there are any wills for that surname as these often contain details of bequests of land and property. A search for a name and will should locate these. All original wills [those with a W in the reference] and registered wills (those with an R in the reference] have been deposited. Microfiche copies of registered wills are to be used in the Essex Record Office, with copies of the microfiche available at Colchester and Southend Libraries and at Saffron Walden Access Point.\nSome may have digital images attached. The printed volumes Wills at Chelmsford list the wills alphabetically by surname and can be seen at any of the offices and in many reference libraries.\nIf you are trying to trace the history of a public house, or a house that was formerly a public house, the licensed victuallers' records can be helpful. From the 16th century to 1828 these were part of the records of Quarter Sessions. The returns from 1769 to 1828 (Q/RLv) have been digitised and can be seen on Seax. In 1872 licensing was resumed and applications were then made to local magistrates. Magistrates court records (P/) have been deposited and may include registers of licences. An Advanced Search for licences and alehouse beerhouse should locate all registers of licences.\nThese can be useful for tracing the owners of larger properties or tradesmen, although they do not list all inhabitants in a place and give only brief details of addresses. We do not have a complete series but directories for a number of years from 1823 are available. The Local Studies Library, Colchester Library, Trinity Square, Colchester CO1 1JB also has a good series. Websites can include transcribed directories. Sometimes these may be complete for a year or for a particular town.\n8. Copying documents\nIt is possible to provide photocopies from documents where the original will not be damaged by the process. Where documents, especially maps, are too large or fragile to be photocopied, we can produce digital images. Contact the Essex Record Office Reprographics Service at ero.reprographics@essex.gov.uk for further information about copying.",

        "raw_content": "Globes Flashback '07: Emily's Devil Wears UGGs\nAt the 2007 Golden Globes, Emily Blunt received her first major American award for the BBC miniseries Gideon's Daughter; however, she spent the majority of her time in the pressroom fielding questions on the film for which she hadn't received an award: The Devil Wears Prada.\nWhile many actresses walk into the pressroom with a sparkle in their eye after winning an award, Blunt is rather nonchalant about the award that she had just won and forgot to bring it with her to the pressroom. With only her purse in her hands, the English actress delivers some humor to the pressroom when asked why she decided on the dress she was wearing that night.\nVIDEO: Inside Emily Blunt's Stunning Shoot\n\"Because I thought it was timeless and my boobs look good in it and that was pretty much why,\" she says, holding true to her surname. \"Honestly, it was why.\"\nBlunt was also nominated for the Best Actress in a Motion Picture for The Devil Wears Prada, and while she witnessed Jennifer Hudson win the award for Dreamgirls as she predicted, the film was nevertheless a main focal point for the media. When asked what she thinks the devil wears in her life, she sends the pressroom into a bout of laughter.\n\"There are a lot of UGG Boots around, aren't there?\" the then-23-year-old actress says. \"I'd say [the devil wears] UGG Boots.\"\nVIDEO: Emily Blunt Explains Hooking Dog While 'Fishing'\nAmid her comedy routine, Blunt takes a serious moment to speak about the disturbing trend of women losing weight and becoming unhealthily thin, as she needed to lose weight for the role of her skinny character in Prada.\n\"I think the pressure is so huge right now [for women to be thin] and it needs to diminish because it's becoming worrying how many girls we see walking around and they're obviously ill,\" she says, now with her Gideon's Daughter co-star Bill Nighy's award in hand. \"I think...it's printed in the press and it's glamorized even more than it should be.\"\nBlunt, who may be appearing in the Golden Globes pressroom for her nomination for Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (hopefully with her award this time), can't help but continue her comedy spell when a reporter pries about what's in her purse.",

Instead we\u2019ll be at the Impact Arena watching the mighty Alfreton Town where summer signing Jordan Sinnott has really caught our eye this year. He\u2019s impressed us so much so that we\u2019ve decided to sponsor the attacking midfielder for the rest of the season.\nHaving come through the ranks at Huddersfield Town, Sinnott had spells at Halifax Town, Bury, Altrincham and Chesterfield before joining Alfreton at the beginning of the season. So far this year, Sinnott has netted three goals in 11 appearances for the Reds, the most recent coming in a 1-1 draw with Telford United at the beginning of the month.\nFor every goal Sinnott scores from now until the end of the season, we\u2019ve pledged to donate \u00a350 to the South Normanton Area Foodbank, the Alfreton Town Mayor\u2019s chosen charity. Having first opened in 2013, the foodbank supplies nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to people in the local community who are in crisis. With one in five people in the UK living below the poverty line, the project was set up by local churches and community groups to help reduce hunger in our local area and it\u2019s a cause we\u2019re fully behind. You can find more info about the South Normanton Area Foodbank here.\nIn terms of results on the pitch, it\u2019s not been the best of starts for Alfreton, who currently sit 16th in the Vanarama National League North, with only five wins from the first 15 games. However, it\u2019s a marathon not a sprint and we\u2019re counting on Sinnott, a previous champion at this level, to help propel the side up the league table in the coming months.\nWe\u2019ll be keeping you up to date on how Sinnott and the rest of the Alfreton boys get on throughout the season so make sure you keep an eye on The View and our Twitter (@Eurocellplc) for the latest.",

        "raw_content": "When Jim and his wife moved to Tarifa, little did they know that six years later they\u2019d be building a life for four children and working with a current world champion kite surfer.\nLike many of the expat community living in Tarifa, when Jim first visited the town eight years ago, he immediately fell in love.\n\u2018A friend of mind was taking a year\u2019s sabbatical and was in Tarifa. He suggested that I visit, that I would really like the place. He was right. From the first moment, I knew Tarifa had something special.\u2019\nThe actual move from London to Tarifa took about six months. Jim left behind a well paying job with a London based business consultancy. Then he, his wife and young child boarded a plane south. They haven\u2019t looked back since.\n\u2018Sure, living in the south of Spain may not offer the same financial security or opportunities of a city like London, but the pay off comes in the quality in life. I didn\u2019t like the idea of raising my family in the city. I wanted my children to have a freer life. Tarifa gives them that.\u2019\nAs Jim is half-Spanish, learning the language was not so much of an obstacle. That said, when he arrived in Tarifa, he had no idea how he was going to make a living.\n\u2018We kept our eye on the local property market and with the help of Tarifa Direct, when the time was right, we decided to invest in a frontline plot on the outskirts of town.\u2019\nJim used the plot to build a 3-storey 750 sq. metre shop, a project, which was scheduled to take 9 months, but ended up taking two years to complete.\n\u2018Building the shop was a huge learning curve and taught me a lot about working with the Spanish system,\u2019 he says.\nThe plan was to rent out the shop but then the crisis hit and Jim had to rethink his options. Then a chance meeting with Gisela Pulido, the 7 times kite surf world champion and Tarifa resident changed his world.\nWorking together with Gisela, they used the shop to open the Gisela Pulido Pro Kite Surf School. Combining Gisela\u2019s international success and Jim\u2019s business experience, the school was an instant success.\nThe school is annexed to a shop called Superfly where they sell boutique women\u2019s clothes, men\u2019s sportswear and kite equipment.\n\u2018It\u2019s been an amazing journey,\u2019 Jim explains, \u2018but it hasn\u2019t been easy. Making a living in this part of the world definitely has its challenges. The biggest difference for me is in the attitudes. In London it matters what car you drive, where you live and where you go on holidays. Here those things are irrelevant. In our free time we go to the beach with the kids and nothing beats that. The day to day life is way better than anything London has to offer.\u2019\nFor more information on how you can make the transition to a new life in Tarifa, contact Tony Cassidy atTarifa Direct today and get some expert advice.",

        "title": "Concerns over Cannabis for Fertility",
        "raw_content": "Concerns over Cannabis for Fertility\nCan CBD or cannabinoids affect fertility long term for a young woman? This is a great question, but the studies on fertility and cannabis for women are debatable.\nSome people find that it can be more dangerous. There are studies that show excessive cannabis use can reduce fertility.\nI would again recommend moderate use, such as a few puffs of marijuana once per day. The body is responding to these chemicals that come from the cannabis plant as they come in because we recognize them. If we\u2019re thinking about the long term, data does not show a long-term damage to fertility or long-term damage to tissues. When we\u2019re talking about a study on mice where they inject huge doses of THC and essentially terminate the pregnancy of the mice, this is very hard to replicate in humans. You would have to consume huge amounts. If that were to happen, that a pregnancy was terminated, the uterus is going to regenerate cells. Long term it\u2019s not going to have the same effect. At least that\u2019s not shown in the data. My personal opinion is medical science is way more conservative around cannabis and pregnancy than it needs to be.\nAlso, I\u2019m comparing that to the drugs used for pregnant women or women who are in the fertility stage of their life. They\u2019re called teratogen. They\u2019re a whole class of drugs that harm the fetus. Cannabis is not considered a teratogen, yet. The debate is still unsettled. In general, it\u2019s nontoxic. It\u2019s also a question of whether you are abusing the drug or using it medicinally. If you\u2019re using it medicinally, we want to use as little medication as possible. We use it moderately.\nCBD is the secondary molecule of cannabis. If women are dealing with issues such as osteoporosis, endometriosis, period cramps, and other hormonal imbalances like postmenopause, cannabis is a nontoxic, conservative first step in addressing symptoms before going into more harsh medications.\nHemp is just another word for cannabis\nCBD, cannabidiol, comes hemp. Hemp is just another word for cannabis. It\u2019s made with plants that are very low in THC, so they don\u2019t get you high. I recommend people try a course of CBD. Start with a low dose, but try it for at least 30 days. You need to get the CBD systemic in your body. It has to build up in your body. If you find that you have reduced pain, that your symptoms and ailment from your disease are mitigated, your sleep is regulated, and possibly your mood and hormone cycles are regulated, this could be the CBD. What we\u2019re ultimately trying to do is reduce the more powerful pharmaceuticals that we might be taking.\nIt doesn\u2019t mean that pharmaceuticals are bad. It just means that the Federal Drug Administration has a very specific guideline for how medications get approved. Medications need to be laser focused in what they do. Cannabinoids are regulating the whole system. Even CBD-based medications have not been readily produced because we\u2019re still trying to figure out why it has one effect for some people and other effects for other people.\nThat\u2019s what I do. I just try to help people understand how to use CBD. It\u2019s a really conservative way of going about taking something that might help without reducing the quality of your life, without having harmful side effects, and without getting high.\nprevious post: Family Conversations and Cannabis\nnext post: Adjusting for Addiction: When Medical Use Becomes Too Much",

        "raw_content": "Pence\u2019s Stance on Climate Change\nTim Kaine has misrepresented Mike Pence\u2019s current stance on climate change, making it a regular talking point in his campaign speeches.\nKaine, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, has repeatedly claimed that Pence, the Republican vice presidential nominee, \u201csays \u2018climate change is a myth.'\u201d Pence did say that on his campaign website when running for the House in 2000. In a post titled \u201cGlobal Warming Disaster,\u201d Pence wrote: \u201cGlobal warming is a myth.\u201d\nBut more recently, on Sept. 27, Pence said \u201cthere\u2019s no question\u201d that human activity has \u201csome impact on climate.\u201d\nKaine has made similar claims on at least eight occasions between Oct. 10 and Nov. 2.\nIn one instance, at a campaign rally in Davidson, North Carolina, on Oct. 12, however, Kaine correctly used the past tense, claiming, \u201cMike Pence said climate change is a myth.\u201d\nBut in many other cases, Kaine misleadingly claimed Pence currently says climate change is a myth.\nFor example, on Nov. 2 in Dubuque, Iowa, Kaine said, \u201cDonald Trump says, and this is a quote, \u2018Climate change is a hoax created by the Chinese.\u2019 And his running mate, Mike Pence, says, \u2018It\u2019s a myth.'\u201d\nTrump did tweet on Nov. 6, 2012: \u201cThe concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive,\u201d but later said it was a joke, as we wrote in our report on the first presidential debate. However, Trump also has a record of calling global warming a \u201choax.\u201d\nIn an allusion to the 12-step program designed to help people recover from alcohol and other addictions, Kaine went on to say that the \u201cfirst step is you have to admit you have a problem.\u201d Kaine added that, \u201cYou\u2019re not going to solve a problem if you don\u2019t admit you have a problem.\u201d\nHowever, Pence has acknowledged \u2014 on at least one occasion \u2014 that humans are affecting the climate.\nPence told CNN\u2019s Chris Cuomo on Sept. 27, \u201cThere\u2019s no question that the activities that take place in this country and in countries around the world have some impact on the environment and some impact on climate.\u201d He added, \u201cDonald Trump and I say, let\u2019s follow the science, but for heaven\u2019s sakes let\u2019s not go rushing into the kind of restrictions on our economy that are putting Americans out of work and, frankly, are driving jobs out of this country.\u201d\nBut Trump still doesn\u2019t \u201cfollow the science.\u201d\nTrump told Fox News\u2019 Bill O\u2019Reilly on July 26 he \u201cprobably did\u201d call climate change a hoax, adding \u201cthey\u2019re saying [climate change is] man-made and I say it could have a minor impact, but nothing to what they\u2019re talking about.\u201d\nMore recently, Trump\u2019s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway told CNN\u2019s Alisyn Camerota on Sept. 27 that Trump believes that \u201cglobal warming\u201d and \u201cclimate change\u201d are \u201cnaturally occurring\u201d and not man-made.\nWhen we asked Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign for evidence more recent than 2000 to back-up Kaine\u2019s claim, spokesperson Josh Schwerin pointed us to other past instances where Pence has questioned the validity of climate change \u2014 the most recent instance occurring in 2014.\nOn Feb. 21, 2014, Pence told MSNBC\u2019s Chuck Todd that he didn\u2019t know if humans\u2019 role in climate change \u201cis a resolved issue in science today.\u201d Todd then responded, \u201ca lot of scientists out there\u201d do believe humans are impacting the climate. Pence then said, \u201cI know we\u2019re talking about climate change. Just a few years ago we were talking about global warming. We haven\u2019t seen a lot of warming lately. I remember back in the \u201970s we were talking about the coming Ice Age.\u201d\nWe\u2019ve addressed all three of Pence\u2019s claims before.\nFirst, when Sen. Ted Cruz similarly claimed in January, \u201cnone of the alarmists say \u2018global warming\u2019 anymore \u2014 now it\u2019s \u2018climate change,\u2019\u201d we found that to be inaccurate. We explained, \u201cScientists still use both terms, but tend to use \u2018climate change\u2019 more often because, in addition to warming, it refers to phenomena such as sea-level rise and changes in precipitation patterns.\u201d\nSecond, in March 2016 and November 2015, we addressed Rep. Lamar Smith\u2019s claim that data show there\u2019s been a \u201chalt\u201d in global warming \u2014 it\u2019s false. Some research has found that there\u2019s been a warming \u201cslowdown,\u201d and other research suggested there hasn\u2019t been. Still, no research supports \u201ca halt in global warming,\u201d as we wrote.\nThird, we wrote about the \u201cglobal cooling\u201d myth in March 2015, when Cruz cited an article on the topic published in Newsweek in 1975. That article did warn of \u201cominous signs\u201d of a \u201ccooling world,\u201d but it has been criticized since then \u2013 including by its author, Peter Gwynne.\nWriting for Inside Science in 2014, Gwynne wrote that \u201cwhile the hypotheses described in that original story seemed right at the time, climate scientists now know that they were seriously incomplete. Our climate is warming \u2014 not cooling, as the original story suggested.\u201d\nThe fact is, there was no scientific consensus in the 1970s about global cooling when Gwynne wrote his story in 1975, but today there is scientific consensus that human-caused climate change is real.\nRegardless of Pence\u2019s past remarks, he more recently has admitted that humans play a role in climate change. However, Pence and his running mate have outlined no policies designed to specifically address climate change, and, in fact, the GOP ticket would undo steps President Obama has taken to reduce carbon emissions.\nFor more information on both the Democratic and Republican candidates\u2019 positions and policies regarding climate change, please see our article, \u201cThe Candidates on Climate Change.\u201d\nhttps://www.sharethefacts.co/share/89e07655-e77d-4bf7-a27b-af31816292e3\nPrevious StoryMake America Number 1\nNext StoryTrump\u2019s Tax Cut Claims",

        "raw_content": "Watch 60 Years Of Climate Change In 15 Seconds\nPerspective, they say, is everything. Donald Trump may not believe in climate change because it\u2019s cold during North American winters, but last week, NASA\u2019s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) released a compelling report to the contrary, based on a 60-year temperature analysis from 1,000 meteorological stations from around the globe. The scientists found that 2013 was one of the warmest years on record, \u201ccontinuing a long-term trend of rising global temperatures\u201d driven by man-made emissions.\nNASA scientists also made a visualization that illustrated the more disturbing developments in climate change in recent years. Other than the year 1998, the 10 warmest years in more than a century all took place in the new millennium. As you can see below, the changing colors reflect the overall change in temperature.\n\u201cLong-term trends in surface temperatures are unusual and 2013 adds to the evidence for ongoing climate change,\u201d GISS climatologist Gavin Schmidt said in a press release. \u201cWhile one year or one season can be affected by random weather events, this analysis shows the necessity for continued, long-term monitoring.\u201d\nThe average temperature in 2013, 58.3 degrees Fahrenheit, was 1.1 F warmer than the mid-20th century baseline, scientists say. Last year, when the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere surpassed levels of 400 parts per million, the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide reached a higher point than it had at any time in the last 800,000 years.\nPoint is, weather is different from climate. And when you take a step back, science has again and again pointed to the relationship between the postwar industrial boom and the rise of greenhouse gases throwing the planet\u2019s self-regulation into flux. In recent years, both the Pentagon and foreign governments have cited failure to mitigate climate change as a primary national security concern, as climactic changes threaten supply chains and drive conflict.",

        "raw_content": "Uber\u2019s New Chief Brand Officer: \u201cWe Need More People Who Are Nothing Like Us\u201d\nBozoma Saint John opens up about what it\u2019s really like for women of color in tech.\nThese days, there aren\u2019t many tech companies that appear to be equitable places for women and minorities, but Uber\u2019s reputation has been particularly tarnished. After allegations of rampant sexual harassment sent the company into a downward spiral, several members of its executive board left. In June, Bozoma Saint John left Apple Music to join Uber as its chief brand officer amid the talk of how the company will turn itself around.\nAt a company-wide event to raise awareness for Black Women\u2019s Equal Pay Day on July 31, Bozoma joined Meena Harris, founder of the Phenomenal Woman Action Campaign, to talk about pay equity, women of color in leadership, and Uber\u2019s path forward.\nMeena Harris: If you\u2019re a woman of color, it takes a lot longer to achieve pay equity: This year black women essentially worked for free until July 31 to earn the same that a white man made in 2016. For Latinas, equal pay doesn\u2019t happen until November 2, so they must work almost an entire extra year. For women of color the pay gap is more like a canyon, and during a lifetime it\u2019s nearly impossible to catch up.\nUber just released its first employee-compensation and pay-gap analysis, which is really important. Can you talk a little about that?\nBoz Saint John: I\u2019m excited about what is happening from my counterparts in HR. They\u2019re working hard to make sure that the Equal Pay initiative is thoroughly looked at and is delved into, and that we are doing the best that we can do to ensure that there is equality for people of color and women.\nMH: When you were at Apple, the Internet lost its mind seeing you, the first black woman on stage at the Worldwide Developers Conference. How did that feel? Did you beforehand realize how significant it was, or was it only after the fact that you thought, \u201cOh, that was a big deal?\u201d\nBSJ: I didn\u2019t think about it that way beforehand. You go about doing what you normally do every day and then someone, somewhere, either for good or bad, says \u201cOh, look at that person.\u201d I do feel like there was a moment when I looked at that and said, \u201cWhy is it there so much attention on this?\u201d Because, honestly, you could come to my office on a regular Monday morning, and you\u2019ll get the same show. You want me to take you through the UI? Sure, no problem.\nOf course, being a woman, and being a black woman at that, wearing a pink dress and my hair in my afro, all those things made it a spectacle. To me, it was both a good thing and a bad thing because I felt like wow, there\u2019s attention for just being, which is great because I do want to shine that light, even if I\u2019m the one in the center.\nIt can also be bad, because then there\u2019s a lot of weight on the shoulders of that one to represent all sorts of people. It\u2019s like the great Spike Lee says, black people are not one monolithic group. I can\u2019t be the representation for everyone, there\u2019s real danger in making it seem like maybe there\u2019s just one. I cannot be the only.\nMH: Being the \u201cfirst\u201d and the \u201conly\u201d can be isolating, and it can also come with a lot of responsibility. How have you navigated that as you\u2019ve taken on increasingly challenging positions, especially in the tech sector? Where do you find your strength and support?\ncredit: Sarah Deragon\nBSJ: I think it just starts with having a strong community. You may feel like you\u2019re the only, but again, you\u2019re not the only in the whole wide world. Leaning on the community to help embolden and support is important.\nI think in terms of what\u2019s happening with diversity and inclusion in Silicon Valley, there\u2019s a lot of finger pointing going on. But I view it through the immigration story, which is that if I\u2019m here, and you can see me, if I\u2019m visible, then perhaps it will encourage somebody else to come along too.\nWe\u2019ve got to encourage others to join, so that there isn\u2019t just one, because we also know that the more there are, the better the environment is, the better the community is, the better the ideas are, the better the total experience is, because then you have diversity of thought.\nMH: You\u2019ve talked about how just simply being matters; for others to be able to see that there is opportunity.\nBSJ: Yes, representation matters. And, again, it\u2019s about the diversity of representation. That\u2019s why I also say, bring your whole self to work, because each of us has such an incredible story. If we bring that to the work we do, it will make the work that much better, because it will add a layer of complexity to it. Even when we\u2019re working in tech, what we want is human connection.\nIf we\u2019re not able to talk about ourselves in a way that is a call to action, or that attracts other people to us, then we\u2019re not going to get the kind of diversity that we need to do our jobs well.\nMH: I\u2019m inspired by how you got started in your career. You\u2019re where you are because someone decided to give you a shot even though you didn\u2019t necessarily have the expertise. I understand you didn\u2019t have formal training in marketing, and in fact were supposed to go to med school, and then you landed a job as Spike Lee\u2019s assistant. How does that early experience influence you now, and what advice would you give to people with non-traditional talent in asserting and adding their value?\nBSJ: I was fresh out of college. I was living in New York eating ramen. I was in the streets. I was in the club. I was hanging out with musicians. I was hanging out with artists. I was tapped into youth culture. (Spike Lee) would come to the office, having his big important conversations, but would always ask me when he wanted to know if a certain thing was cool, or who the hottest artist was, or any question about culture. That (was) the value that I was adding.\nYou may not have the full answer, and you may not know more than your boss, or whomever else, but you know something that other people don\u2019t know\u2013so use that.\nMH: There\u2019s such pressure in almost any workplace, particularly for a new employee, to just try to fit in. You\u2019ve been outspoken about being your authentic self, and that you\u2019re just going to bring your whole self to work, and trust that it works out.\nHave you ever found that confidently trying to bring your entire self to the job, particularly in environments that might not be diverse, have been difficult? How do you think about that in hiring and building a team?\nBSJ: I feel like it\u2019s been a challenge for me when I haven\u2019t brought my whole self, because then I don\u2019t know how to move. I feel like I\u2019m pretending, and it\u2019s so much harder to pretend to be something else than to be yourself. The energy that you put into trying to fit in takes away from the energy of contributing.\nThat\u2019s what I realized very early on because, yeah, of course there were moments in my career that I felt that I would perhaps climb faster, or be accepted better, if I behaved like other people.\nLet me tell you something. I don\u2019t know how to behave.\nMH: That apparently has helped you!\nBSJ: I just want to underline the point that it just makes everything better for us to be ourselves. I do take that into management. If we had uniform teams of people who are all thinking the same way, and behaving the same way, and laughing at the same jokes, and having the same experiences, it would be boring.\nMy hope for all of us, myself included, is when you\u2019re managing people, that you\u2019re encouraging diversity of thought, of idea, of person, of experience, of culture, of all those things.\nWe need more people who are nothing like us. If you can encourage that, and hire like that, then we\u2019ll be in a much better place.\nMH: You\u2019ve taken on this job at a challenging time, but it\u2019s also a moment for change, to turn the corner. Obviously, some of that shift will be cultural and about individual inclusion, as well as company-wide policy, but as chief brand officer, how do you see your role in helping to move the company forward?\nBSJ: I could insert a lot of words into \u201cbrand.\u201d I also see myself as Chief Cheerleader. Cheerleading is important in this very time because we need to be able to communicate to the external world that we\u2019re excited to be here. We\u2019re passionate about the work that we do. We know it\u2019s good work. It will change the world. It has already changed the world. There\u2019s so much more to do, and we\u2019re excited to do it. If I can help convey any of that passion, then that\u2019s what I want to do today.\nThe next step is telling the right stories that give us the complexity of the whole. I feel emotional when I talk about it, because it truly feels like such a critical time to be able to get the opportunity to show the world that there are 15,000 people who are actively working to change the way that we work and live in the world. I feel quite honored to have the opportunity to cheerlead on our behalf, and to do that well.\nMeena Harris is an entrepreneur and the founder of the Phenomenal Woman Action Campaign.

        "raw_content": "France insisted Sept. 13 on protective measures following reports that African swine fever (ASF) had been detected in wild boars in Belgium near the French border, according to a Reuters report.\nThe disease, highly viral for pigs but not dangerous for humans, has been spreading in the European Union, mainly in the eastern part of the bloc, especially in Romania.\n\u201cThe confirmation today of the presence of the virus in Belgium (in the western part of the EU) represents a new progression of the disease, which requires an adequate response given the considerable economic interests at stake for the French agri-food chain,\u201d France's farm ministry said in a statement.\nAgriculture Minister Stephane Travert asked that some activities such as hunting be restricted and called for enhanced surveillance of livestock and wildlife in four administrative departments (counties) bordering Belgium.\nThe plan also included a strengthening of measures to prevent the virus from entering pig farms and slaughterhouses.\nAccording to Politico, the arrival of ASF in Western Europe has long been the worst fear for many in the pork industry, in part because it could mean import bans from key non-EU markets.\nBelgium\u2019s food safety agency, AFSCA, said it had identified two wild boars carrying the disease around the southern village of \u00c9talle, Belgium. Belgian authorities said they were working at various levels of government to prevent the possible spread to pig farms.\nAlthough the disease reached mainland Europe in 2007, it only breached the EU in 2014 in the Baltic States and Poland. The virus quickly spread across Eastern Europe, where food safety authorities have struggled to contain the disease.\nGermany has gone to extraordinary measures to keep the disease at bay, dispatching experts to help advise eastern countries on how best to stop the disease from spreading.\nDenmark announced plans to build a fence along its border with Germany to keep ASF out, despite its southern neighbor not recording any cases so far.",

        "raw_content": "Skills Minister launches the New Careers Strategy - Sector Response\nTailored advice will be at the heart of a new Careers Strategy designed to make sure young people have the skills they need and employers want post-Brexit.\nEvery school and college in the country will aim to have a dedicated careers leader in place by the start of the new school year \u2013 backed by \u00a34million of funding \u2013 who can give advice on the best training routes and up-to-date information on the jobs market, helping young people make decisions about their future.\nThe plan will also boost careers support in the areas of the country most in need, with \u00a35million funding to create 20 careers hubs across the country that will link schools and colleges with local universities and employers to help broaden pupils\u2019 horizons.\nThe Strategy \u2013 developed in partnership with the Gatsby Charitable Foundation and co-ordinated through an expanded role for the Careers and Enterprise Company \u2013 will help young people choose the career that is right for them, alongside the \u00a3500million investment in new T levels to deliver a world-class technical education system on par with the high-quality academic routes available.\nIt is part of the government\u2019s commitment to make sure people have the skills they need to get on in life and help build a Britain that is fit for the future.\nLaunching the strategy at the Careers Development Institute (CDI) annual conference in Birmingham,\nWithout access to the best possible careers support, some people will miss out on the opportunities available.\nThey will continue to be held back if they don\u2019t have the right advice, at the right time to make informed decisions about their future, or may not have access to the broader experiences and role models to help them develop as people.\nIt matters to me that we give people from all backgrounds the best possible preparation to move into a job, or training that enables them \u2013 whatever their background or wherever they live \u2013 to have a fulfilling life.\nThe announcement follows the launch of the government\u2019s Industrial Strategy which sets out a long term plan to boost the productivity and earning power of people throughout the UK.\nThe Careers Strategy will include:\nWe will aim for every school and college to have a dedicated careers leader, with \u00a34 million to provide training and support for at least 500 schools and colleges, so they can give the most up-to-date advice and fully prepare young people for the world of work.\nQuality interactions between schools and businesses\nSecondary schools will be expected to provide pupils with at least one meaningful interaction with businesses every year, with a particular focus on employers from Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) industries to help deliver the high-skilled workers we need in these industries.\nCareers hubs to be set up across the country\nTo support young people in the most disadvantaged areas, \u00a35million funding will develop 20 careers hubs, led by the Careers and Enterprise Company. Hubs will link together schools, colleges, universities and local businesses to broaden the aspirations of young people.\nTrials of careers activities in primary schools\nBacked by \u00a32million, these pilots will test out ways of engaging children from an early age on the wealth of careers available to them, helping to raise their aspirations. These trials will focus on some of the most disadvantaged areas of the country through the government\u2019s Opportunity Areas programme.\nSpecialist advice for long-term unemployed and those with additional needs\nThe National Careers Service will provide access to specialist support for adults who need it most, ensuring that we help create opportunities for everyone, no matter where they live or their background.\nThe Gatsby Charitable Foundation has set out eight clear benchmarks for schools and colleges on good careers advice. The strategy puts employers at the centre of the careers programme, ensuring young people receive tailored advice about the training routes and work experience needed to secure a successful career in the future.\nSir John Holman, Senior Advisor to the Gatsby Foundation and author of the Gatsby Career Benchmark report said:\nGood Career Guidance is the key to social mobility. For young people coming from a background of low socioeconomic aspirations, school career guidance is their best hope of charting the way to a rewarding future career. We now know, from our international study and from the work of career guidance experts, what makes for good career guidance: it is described by the eight Gatsby benchmarks which have been shown in the pilot in the North East of England to have such a powerful positive effect in schools and colleges. I am very pleased that the Department for Education has put these benchmarks at the heart of its strategy.\nFor the first time, schools and colleges have a clear description of what they need to do get good career guidance for each and every student, whatever their needs. Employers can equally clearly see the important part they play in a single coherent framework. The schools and colleges in Gatsby\u2019s pilot have shown that an essential part of success lies in leadership at the school level, and I am pleased to see that DfE has acknowledged this and has committed to a programme to identify the role of Career Leaders and to help to train them.\nWith new technical training routes coming from 2020, and with Brexit making it more important than ever to develop home-grown skills, this is an auspicious moment at which to launch this imaginative and pragmatic strategy.\nThe Careers and Enterprise Company will support schools and colleges to meet these benchmarks and Ofsted will hold schools and colleges to account for the careers provision they offer pupils.\nClaudia Harris, CEO of the Careers & Enterprise Company says:\nWe welcome the Careers Strategy and its adoption of The Gatsby Charitable Foundation Benchmarks, widely recognised as the hallmark of best practice in careers and enterprise provision. We are delighted we have been asked to play an expanded role, operating as the backbone organisation coordinating efforts across these benchmarks. We also welcome the focus on Careers Leadership in schools which organisations including Teach First, The CDI and The Gatsby Charitable Foundation have highlighted as key to successful careers support. We are grateful for the strong partnerships we have developed with the Local Enterprise Partnerships, schools, colleges and employers and over the coming months we will share a plan on how we will collectively take forward the recommendations in the Strategy.\nAll this careers information will be brought together on one website, to be launched by the National Careers Service next year, to support people just starting out on a new career path, or those who want to re-skill or upskill. It will feature more than 800 job profiles developed with industry experts and a comprehensive list of training courses available.\nJan Ellis, Chief Executive, CDI, said:\nThe Career Development Institute broadly welcomes the new Carers Strategy. We are delighted with the emphasis on the role of careers leaders in schools and the Gatsby benchmarks. The Minister also talked about the importance of personalised careers guidance. This is excellent but the reality is that there is a shortage of qualified careers advisers in England and there was no mention of additional resources to support their training. We also have concerns about a school-based model because it is not clear who is going to provide support for young people excluded from education; the home taught and those who fall out of the system.\nIan Pretty, CEO, Collab Group, said:\nThe long awaited Careers Strategy aims to support the Governments Industrial Strategy and the ambition to create a truly world-class technical education system. Having a high quality TPE system will be vital to advance social mobility and extend opportunity to all young people, especially as we contend with our wider productivity and skills based challenges.\nThe strategy is full of good intentions but we remain concerned that is still takes a process driven approach to careers strategy. We believe that there is also a need to challenge the cultural and incentive regimes within the schools system which still encourage academic routes over technical routes. Whilst it is welcome that schools must now give providers of technical education and apprenticeships the opportunity to talk to all pupils, granting access alone does not get to the heart of the deeper cultural questions as to why technical education is not afforded the same status as academic based routes.\nThe fact remains that for technical education to be seen as a valid option to all learners and their parents, we also need to also look at what incentivises schools to prioritise academic based routes \u2013 for example, why would a school want to risk losing funding by sending a student to a FE College rather than staying on at the school in the sixth form? On this account, the strategy is largely silent. Additionally, the \u00a34 million to support schools and college to access career leaders, or the \u00a35 million to develop 20 careers hubs, is not an investment commensurate with the ambitions of the strategy or the scale of the challenges that we face.\nThe strategy also talks about using data and technology to help everyone make choices about careers. The biggest target cohort of users will be 14 to 19 year old digital natives, this is a group where 90% use smartphones, 93% are accessing the internet, and 53% own tablets. So the design must be based around how these digital natives think and act and how they access and use data. This is absolutely crucial and to truly engage young people it will be vital to provide a solution that is portable, app-based and accessible.\nDr Fiona Aldridge, Assistant Director for Research & Development, Learning and Work Institute, said:\nWe are pleased to see that the long-awaited careers strategy, published today, recognises the importance of focusing on adults already in the workforce, as well as young people about to enter it.\nIn our ever-changing labour market, it is imperative that adults are able to access timely and high quality support to make informed choices about developing their skills. While we believe that it is important that all adults have access to these opportunities, it is particularly critical for those in low paid and insecure work, as well as those out of work. To be effective, we must ensure that this is properly resourced.\nIn the coming months, we will be working closely with government to support the Career Learning Pilots, featured in the Strategy. Working with local partners we will be testing effective approaches to engaging more adults in learning and piloting the impact of reducing the cost of courses. These pilots should provide vital evidence in supporting the government to fulfil its career learning ambitions.\nKirstie Donnelly MBE, Managing Director City & Guilds, said:\nWe welcome today the publication of the Government\u2019s long-awaited careers strategy. We agree wholeheartedly with the aspiration that every young person across the UK should have access to high quality careers advice at school and college and work experience opportunities.\nIt\u2019s positive to see measures such as the promise to have a dedicated careers leader in place in each school by the start of the new school year, the 20 careers hubs in disadvantaged areas and the pledge that every child should get a quality interaction with an employer at least once a year. However, I believe that there is still much more to do and greater investment is needed to really get this right, we also need to ensure that we rigorously measure the outputs of this work to ensure that it is working effectively. It would also be good to see careers education made available in a format that will truly capture the attention and imaginations of young people by making greater use of creative online and social media solutions.\nAction in this area is sorely needed to enable young people to make informed choices about what they study. Our Great Expectations research, which looked at young people\u2019s career expectations, worryingly found that teenagers across the UK were aware of just a fifth of jobs that would be available to them. This puts the next generation on course to miss out on vital employment opportunities for their futures.\nOur research also highlighted the concerning postcode lottery in careers advice that many young people across the country are facing which is exacerbating sector skills gaps and creating regional disparities. We therefore need to ensure that careers provision is properly linked to local labour markets and projected job availability. Employer engagement with schools and colleges will be key to this. Not only will this help young people understand exactly what options are available and what next steps they should take, it will support schools and colleges deliver meaningful and practical careers advice.\nThe Government\u2019s recent Industrial Strategy made a commitment to putting technical education on the same footing as our academic system. Providing young people with the information to access all training and career paths available to them will be a crucial first step to establishing a world class technical-education offer in the UK.\nCatherine Sezen, Senior Policy Manager at the Association of Colleges, said:\nAoC welcomes today\u2019s announcement as we have long called for young people to have access to informed and impartial careers advice and education embedded into the curriculum, from a much earlier age.\nAlongside the measures announced today, teachers need to be using the right language to promote different pathways and it is vital that all young people are aware of the exciting range of options that are available to them at the age of 16, whether academic, technical or apprenticeships.\nThe strategy needs to be flexible to recognise the good work that is already taking place in a number of schools and colleges across the country. We are also keen to ensure that the forthcoming technical education reforms are properly understood and rooted into the careers strategy.\nPeter Finegold, Head of Education and Skills at the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, said:\nCareers advice matters more for engineering than many other subjects. Our research shows that unless students come from an engineering heritage background, they are unlikely to know about it.\nWe strongly believe that high quality career guidance is the engine of social mobility. The UK has a particular challenge in that 50% of an individual\u2019s lifetime earnings can be explained by their parents\u2019 earnings. It\u2019s 15% in Denmark.\nWe support the adoption of Sir John Holman\u2019s Gatsby Good Career Guidance Benchmarks, but have real concerns that the original PwC costings (\u00a3207 million in the first year and \u00a3173 million per year thereafter) will not be met \u2013 and that we will end up with a new bureaucracy and little cultural change.\nIt is not sufficient simply \u201cto allow providers of technical education access to pupils\u201d. Cultural prejudices against technical education are so deeply ingrained in our society. If we are serious about developing a parity between academic and vocational learning, then we need to align careers advice much more closely with the day-to-day learning experience in schools.\nWe know that one of the most powerful and cost-effective ways of achieving careers-readiness for young people is through teacher placements in industry. This is why the Institution developed and funds a STEM Insight scheme, in which secondary teachers spend five or ten days in industry. STEM Insight is predicated on the fact that teachers are among the most powerful influencers of careers decision-making.\nKirsty Mchugh, Chief Executive of ERSA, said:\nERSA welcomes the government\u2019s announcement today of its long waited careers strategy. This is an essential plank in any attempt to stimulate social mobility in the UK. However, the details in today\u2019s strategy are hardly radical, far reaching, or well resourced, with just three pages dedicated to the critical issue of supporting adults to progress in their careers. Given the UK\u2019s low productivity and number of low level jobs, this seems a major oversight. Instead, it appears the government is wedded to its current strategy of Jobcentre Plus delivering careers advice to not only those out of work, but also school children and those looking to progress whilst in work. This is clearly careers advice on the cheap and not going to deliver the high skilled workforce the UK desperately needs.\nWe are also dismayed not to see mention in today\u2019s publication of the Chancellor\u2019s welcome announcement in the Budget of \u00a38 million for \u2018in work progression trials\u2019, which must investigate the best ways people on low pay can be supported and not just be limited to the Jobcentre Plus regime. This omission brings into doubt whether we really have a cross-government strategy at all. Instead, ERSA calls on government to develop an independent, well-resourced in-work progression service which has links through to the sectors and leaders who can shape a modern, exciting service with which people and businesses actually want to engage.\nMarc Doyle, Principal and CEO, Humber UTC, said:\nThe government\u2019s Careers Strategy has been launched, supporting schools and students to develop the skills and attitudes that industry is crying out for, as its ageing workforce retires. I welcome the Strategy with a big smile on my face. At the Humber UTC, a school for 14-19 year olds, we believe firmly in the importance of delivering a \u2018Talent Pipeline\u2019 that gives our students access to the local labour market.\nToo often students are poorly equipped with not just the qualifications, but the experiences, the employability skills and the confidence to take some of the apprenticeships and jobs that are waiting for them \u2018at the other end\u2019. We see it as our job to make that a thing of the past.\nOur curriculum is designed to support students in understanding the skills needed to be at the front of the queue for these opportunities and to give them rich experiences with business \u2013 we already meet a large majority of the Gatsby Foundation benchmarks.\nAs an Engineering specialist, we are part of a pilot for the North Lincolnshire Careers and Enterprise programme, so we already have that dedicated careers support, an industry based enterprise advisor and access to a wide range of business support through the Local Enterprise Partnership.\nThe government\u2019s Strategy is very much needed and the success of UTCs in supporting students to find their calling has already had a massive impact, with some 97% of students from the 2017 cohort in employment, education or training \u2013 far higher than the national trend. Proof indeed that, even though qualifications can never be ignored, it\u2019s the skills that get you the jobs.\nMark Dawe, Chief Executive, Association of Employment and Learning Providers (AELP), said:\nWe Welcome that there is a careers strategy because it's been a massive vacuum without one. It Seems a shame that the government doesn't think young people in learning at independent providers deserve any form of careers advice but Hopefully they will confirm this is an oversight and rectify the position.\nMartin McLean, Education and Training Policy Advisor at the National Deaf Children\u2019s Society said;\nThis long-awaited careers strategy from the Government is a welcome step in the right direction.\nWe know that given the right support a deaf young person can achieve anything a hearing person can. This is why it is absolutely essential that deaf young people are given targeted careers support to ensure that they can make the transition successfully from education into employment.\n\u201cWe now urge the Government to work closely with us to ensure these warm words are urgently translated into action.\nJon Richards, head of education, UNISON said:\nAlthough the strategy is welcome, it seems to be a series of additional short-term funding initiatives that will do little to address the huge gaps in skills across the UK.\nIt looks like a missed opportunity to pull together an effective and coherent careers service that could provide proper independent and impartial guidance by qualified professionals. As they stand, the plans appear to add on extra initiatives without properly linking up existing projects.\nThroughout the years, careers services have been cut hugely by the government. As a result, many people are in low-paid jobs missing out on education or learning new skills. Only an effective national careers service can address and reverse this trend.\nIt is key that quality careers advice is planned properly and funded adequately as it can help improve social mobility, reduce levels of inactivity through training or education, and also lead to higher wages.\nStephen Isherwood, Chief Executive of the Institute of Student Employers (ISE), formerly the Association of Graduate Recruiters, said:\nWe welcome the government\u2019s Careers Strategy and adoption of the Gatsby Charitable Foundation benchmarks. The benchmarks have the potential to transform outcomes for students and we will be encouraging employers to help schools achieve their goals.\nEmployers have been frustrated that schools can be difficult to work with and they need a point of contact who will coordinate activities. Funding a careers leader in every school is a significant and positive step forward.\n\u201cWe know that many employers have worked closely with the Careers & Enterprise Company, so we are pleased to see the enhanced role it has been given in delivering the Careers Strategy.\nBaker Dearing Educational Trust, said:\nWe welcome the Careers Strategy, which emphasises many of the attributes already found in the 49 Univeristy Technical Colleges (UTCs) across England. We want to see more young people with the right aptitude directed towards STEM subjects. High quality employer engagement, coupled with industry facilities and technologies are what attract students to study at UTCs. The UTC programme had nearly 2,000 leavers at 18 in July, in all 97% of students have stayed in education, begun an apprenticeship, or started a job. Of the others, 2% took a gap year and only 1% were NEET.\u201d\nNational Careers Week CIC, said:\nThe directors of NCW, the social enterprise company that promotes the value of careers education, information, advice and guidance; broadly supports and welcomes the arrival of the long-awaited careers strategy as delivered by Anne Milton MP.\nThe Gatsby framework is universally accepted as the gold standard in achieving excellent careers learning. It provides a comprehensive framework which will take a long time and substantial investment to achieve full impact. In addition, it requires the dedicated input and support of teachers, advisers, employers, trainers and other stakeholders.\nWe are particularly pleased by the Government\u2019s widening focus from just 2 to all 8 of the Gatsby benchmarks and the recognition of the role of the careers leader.\nOur role at NCW has been, and will continue to be, the support of schools and educators to deliver quality and exciting careers learning to inspire our young people. We aim to harness the enthusiasm and experience of teachers, support staff, careers leaders and advisers, whilst engaging local businesses to support stakeholders and future employees.\nRussell Hobby, chief executive of education charity Teach First, said:\nThe changing global economy and technological advances mean the world of work is evolving at a rapid pace. More than ever young people need support to make informed choices about their futures. But schools haven\u2019t always been able to deliver this support to a consistently high standard. And it is often pupils in low income communities who miss out most on the help they need. We welcome the Government\u2019s careers strategy, particularly the commitment to training and supporting careers leaders in schools, and we hope this reaches the schools and pupils most in need. This is something we have called for to allow schools to support every pupil to fulfil their potential, regardless of their background.",

The team shot for the first schedule of the film in Punjab and now they will soon be heading to London for the next schedule. Amidst all this, there's been talk about why the title of the film was titled as Street Dancer if the film is the third part of the popular series ABCD.\nThe first installment of Any Body Can Dance (ABCD) was produced by UTV. The second part was bankrolled by Disney after they took over UTV. Reportedly, the copyright of ABCD is not with producer Bhushan Kumar and director Remo D\u2019Souza completely. The makers would need to pay a whopping sum if they need to take over the rights and that is only if Disney wants to part with it. Hence the film is titled as Street Dancer 3D.\nThe dance musical is set to release on November 8 this year. We\u2019re super excited to watch this one, what about you?\nMore on: Varun Dhawan, Shraddha Kapoor, Filmfare",

The assistance includes the delivery of donated fire appliances and equipment and providing the training for Nepalese firefighters to use them effectively.\nSM Monaghan said: \u201cI am very pleased to receive this commendation. The conditions for firefighters in Nepal are very difficult compared to those in the UK. They are often expected to fight fires with no protective equipment at all and no water to fight the flames.\n\u201cThey are incredibly brave and anything we can do to improve their safety will help them to keep the communities they serve safer.\u201d\nOther work carried out during the visits include fitting a water pump and repairs to an orphanage, donations of food, clothes, toys and bedding, funding for children\u2019s operations, and educational support for children leaving the orphanage.\nSince the devastating earthquake in Nepal earlier this year, nearly 2,000 Aquabox safe drinking water kits, community water pumps and filters, and protective equipment have been delivered.\nAnother visit is scheduled for spring 2016 and future projects could include funding a combined school and health facility in two earthquake-hit areas, expanded fire-related training and the delivery of additional fire vehicles and equipment.\nFind out more about the Asian Fire Service Association at www.afsa.co.uk/",

        "raw_content": "Phylloquinone, Menaquinone\nVitamin K is needed for blood clotting in case of bleeding. It is also important for strong bones. Vitamin K can be divided into vitamin K1 and various forms of vitamin K2. The third variant, vitamin K3, is the synthetic form of vitamin K.\nVitamin K is partly created by the bacteria in the large intestine. This quantity, however, is not sufficient, so supplement from food is necessary.\nGreen leafy vegetables contain a lot of vitamin K1. Vitamin K1 is also found in vegetable oils and in lesser amounts in fruits, dairy products and bread. Vitamin K2 is in particular found in cheese, egg, chicken, meat and milk products. Supplements may include both vitamin K1 and K2.\nContributes to normal blood clotting.\nPlays a role in maintaining strong bones. Vitamin K is important for the absorption of calcium into the bones.\nNewborn babies (up to three months) receive extra vitamin K to prevent (cerebral) bleeding. They didn\u2019t get a stock of vitamin K from the mother and are not yet able to sufficiently produce it themselves. Adults who use antibiotics for a long time can also have vitamin K shortages, wich may result in delayed blood clotting. Antibiotics can destroy intestinal bacteria that help in the production of vitamin K.\nNo adverse effects are known of a high intake of vitamin K. In practice, an excess of this vitamin doesn\u2019t occur. People using blood thinners or anticoagulants, should be careful with high-dosed vitamin K pills. These may reduce the functioning of the anticoagulant.\nVitamin K is sensitive to light, oxidation and to an acid and alkaline environment, but not to heat.\nVitamin K was discovered in 1929 by the Danish biochemist Henrik Dam.",

It depends on a given day. In cricket whoever is playing for the country is good enough. Till the time we get the results, we don't take anything lightly.\nFile image of Ishant Sharma. Reuters\n\"We are pretty motivated. The aim right now is to win the series and that is what everyone is focussing on. We don't even think of personal performances, just one aim, to win a series in Australia,\" said Sharma.\nIndia were vanquished 2-0 when they were here the last time, though current captain Virat Kohli made his presence felt with plenty of runs.\n\"The tour game is serious because it will set the tone for us. You get to know the conditions because you are playing here after a long time. So you can get into the groove and get used to the conditions,\" he added.\nA lot of onus will be on the Indian pace attack to deliver the goods once again after their terrific performances in South Africa and England earlier in the year.\nKohli and coach Ravi Shastri have praised them time and again as the 'best pace attack' in Indian Test history.\nSharma though said this tag doesn't heap more pressure, instead provides an opportunity for the pacers to perform even better. Coming on his fourth tour here, he added that he is eager to win the Test series this time, while not thinking about individual performances.\n\"Pressure is there but I think it is a great opportunity as well. We have a healthy competition in the pace attack. If you are not doing well, you can be left sitting out and watching the game.\n\"I think it's a great opportunity to do well in any conditions. We did well on the last two tours of South Africa and England. We are not even thinking like we have a pressure situation. Instead, we always think that we have an opportunity to do well,\" said Sharma.\nThe last time India and Australia engaged in a Test series back in India (2016-17), Sharma had a couple famous run-ins with then-skipper Steve Smith, who will be missing the series owing to a year-long ban after the ball-tampering saga.\n\"I have played 11 years now so I don't need to think about what I need to do well. I'm not that kind of person who thinks about what happened in the past. I'm looking forward and I'm going to do well on this tour as well,\" Sharma added.\nWhile the hosts will definitely miss Smith and David Warner, the senior Indian bowler didn't pick any names to target in the current Australian batting line-up.\n\"It is very difficult to say right now (about facial expressions). I don't know what's going to happen. When the series starts, we will get to know what faces to make. There is no one key batsman to look out for but our aim is to get everyone all out.\"\nWhen asked about Kohli's passionate charisma rubbing off onto the others, Sharma replied, \"Everyone is passionate because we are always motivated to win a series, not just in Australia but when we played in South Africa and England too, we were pretty motivated to win the series.\n\"That's the biggest opportunity for us right now. We always have a good balance of players in our side, who can do great things for us, so it's very promising.\"\nOn their previous overseas tours to South Africa and England, India have baulked at the task of playing tour games against weakened opposition. Cricket Australia XI isn't a first-team by any stretch of the imagination, but Sharma pointed out that the visitors are focussing more on what needs to be done rather than the quality of opposition.\n\"I never think too much about all these things because if you go with this kind of feeling then you relax a bit,\" Sharma said about the tour-game opponents.\n\"It's always better to be on your toes and be ready for your opportunity when you hit the ground. Our bowling combination depends on wickets and conditions. So it is very early to talk about combinations.\n\"Right now we are talking about how to make most of the practice game and what combination we will play in the practice game,\" he signed off.\nTags : Australia, Australia Vs India 2018-19, Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2018-19, India, India Vs Australia, Indian Cricket Team, Ishant Sharma, Test Cricket, Virat Kohli\n1India vs Australia: Ishant Sharma says visitors are focussed on maiden Test series win, won't take beleaguered hosts lightly",

        "title": "How To Drink Watermelon Juice As Medicine For These Health Problems -",
        "raw_content": "Unbelievably refreshing and packed with various vitamins and minerals, watermelon is one of the most popular fruits that all of us tend to consume during the hot summer days!\nBeing a member of Cucurbitaceae family, watermelon is similar to fruits like pumpkin and cantaloupe that grow on the ground. This fruit can have light-to-dark green color, with lighter mottling stripes, while its shape can be round, oblong, or spherical.\nWatermelon is known for its high water content. To be more specific, watermelon contains about 92% water. It is an excellent source of folate, beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin B5, as well as vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B6. Moreover, watermelon is packed with minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, zinc, iron, and copper. It also contains lycopene, the red carotenoid pigment, responsible for the red color. It is a powerful antioxidant that has the ability to neutralize the harmful free radicals in the body.\nWatermelon can effectively promote intestinal elimination and keep our body free from toxic wastes. Watermelon juice offers plenty of vitamins and minerals and is easily digested.\nIn order to fight and prevent diseases, our body requires an alkaline environment. Watermelon has a high content of nutrients that are alkaline-forming in the body. They can neutralize the toxic condition of our body which occurs as a result of the excessive consumption of acid-forming foods.\nAccording to recent studies, watermelon contains 1.5 times more lycopene than tomato. As we said before, lycopene is a potent antioxidant and possesses anti-inflammatory properties that can prevent inflammation which can usually contribute to cancer.\nWatermelon can eliminate toxic compounds from the body, thus reducing asthma attacks.\nDue to its rich content of vitamin C and beta-carotene, watermelon can significantly reduce inflammation that can lead to conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.\nThis fruit possesses potent cleansing and diuretic properties that can heal kidney and bladder problems. The regular consumption of watermelon juice can break down kidney stones.\nDrinking a big glass of watermelon juice can help you to relieve constipation. It effectively eliminates the wastes.\nWatermelon juice contains numerous minerals and offers electrolytes. While we exercise, our body loses electrolytes. So, drinking watermelon juice after a good workout can replenish the lost electrolytes. Moreover, it will reduce muscle soreness and heal muscle cramps.\nWatermelon is a great source of beta-carotene that is converted in our body into vitamin A. This nutrient is very beneficial and can protect our eyes from night blindness and age-related macular degeneration.\nDue to its diuretic properties, watermelon has the ability to eliminate excess fluids from the body which in turn reduces water retention that is present in pregnant women and women who have their monthly menstruation cycle.\nThis fruit can effectively reduce the risks of heart attacks and strokes due to its high content of antioxidants, lycopene, and other important vitamins.\nThe fact that watermelon juice cleanses the body of toxic wastes leads to the conclusion that this juice can also reduce itchiness that occurs as a result of toxicity of acidosis.\nIt is scientifically shown that lycopene (from red watermelons) has potent cancer-preventing properties and it is extremely beneficial in the case of prostate cancer.\nSkin Blemish\nApply a small piece of watermelon directly on your face. Let it stand for 10 minutes then wash off with warm water.\n\u2013 You know that watermelon grows on the ground. This means that it is very important to wash thoroughly before cutting so you can avoid contamination.\n\u2013 95% of the nutritional benefits are contained in the watermelon rind.You can use rind when you make watermelon juice.\n\u2013 You can eat watermelon on its own or in fruit salads. It can be made it into a juice as well.\n\u2013 If you can\u2019t finish a whole watermelon, make sure to wrap it with a cling wrap and place it in the fridge. This will preserve its freshness, prevent it absorbing odors from other food, and prevent it from drying out!\nsource:healthysolo.com",

        "title": "Gator Oscillator - Forexindicators",
        "raw_content": "What is the Gator Oscillator?\nThe Gator oscillator is a forex trading tool developed by Bill Williams. It is closely related to the similar Alligator oscillator. As a trend indicator itd is most useful in markets that display strong directional action.\nOn this chart, the upper section shows the price action, while the lower part is the Gator indicator. The smoothed moving averages that create the value of the bars are not depicted on the graph. As you can see, each bar of the indicator is comprised of a lower and an upper section the interaction of which determines the way the indicator is interpreted.\nThe indicator is calculated according to the following formulae.\nJaw (lower moving average) = Smoothed moving average of the median price over 13-period\nTeeth (upper moving average) = Smoothed moving average of median over 8-period\nLips (middle moving average) = Smoothed moving Average of the median over 5-period\nThese values, called balance lines, are calculated and shifted into the future by an amount specified by the trader. If the moving averages themselves are depicted on the charts, the jaw will be blue, the teeth will be in red, and the lips will be green most of the time. In our graph, the smoothed moving averages (i.e. balance lines) are not shown.\nThe bars seen below the centerline in the chart above show the absolute difference between the red line and the green line with a minus sign. The upper bars, on the other hand, depict the difference between the blue and the red lines. More concisely.\nTop bar = Jaw \u2013 Teeth\nBottom bar = \u2013 (Absolute value of (Teeth \u2013 Lips))\nThe indicators is then evaluated on the basis of the emerging green or red patterns.\nIn order to interpret this indicator, we must define three states of the indicator bars.\nGator Awaking\nSignifying the completion of a cycle, when the bars display different colors (any combination of red and green), the gator is \u2018awaking\u2019.\nGator Eating\nWhen both the bar below and the one above the centerline are green, the indicator is said to be eating.\nGator Satisfied\nWhen, after an \u2018eating\u2019 phase, the one of the upper or lower bars around the centerline turn red, the Gator is said to be sated.\nGator Sleeping\nWhen both bars above and below the centerline are red, the gator is sleeping.\nThe indicator is then interpreted on the basis of a hypothesis that each phase of the trend has a life cycle of its own, indicated by the awaking-eating-stopping-sleeping of the gator. When a phase of the trend is at its incipient stages, we will observe that the gator is waking, that is, one of the upper or lower bars will turn green. After that, as the trend accelerates and reaches its climax, we will note an increasing number of \u2018double greens\u2019 where both the upper and the lower bars are green. This is the eating phase. As the phase runs out of energy, and begins to slow down, one of the previously green bars will turn red, signalling that the gator is sated. And when both bars are red, the phase has ended, anticipating a new cycle.\nTrading with this indicator is simple and easy. In general you open a position as the bars contract and show different colors; then maintain the position until both bars turn red, and exit to take profit. And alternative, more conservative way of using the oscillator is placing the take-profit order at the satisfaction phase. In this manner, while there is chance that some of the potential of the trade will be left unrealized, we are able to capitalize on the most violent phase of the mini trend with shorter time exposure to the market.\nThe main problem with this oscillator is its complicated nature. It is essentially a combination of three moving averages, and whether the addition of the graph at the bottom contributes much value, or merely complicates the picture will probably depend on your trading style. If you depend on moving averages in trading trends, the gator is a suitable tool for balancing and condensing your strategy. All the problems of trading with a moving average must be taken into account while a trader is making use of the Gator indicator. If you make use of other tools, such as the MACD, and do not favor simple moving averages, theGator may not provide a lot of additional value.\nThe main advantage of the Gator indicator is the compactness of its display. Instead of drawing three separate SMMAs on the chart, we have all the information provided by them packed into the bars below, which leaves enough space for the application of any number of additional indicators onto the price data.\nWe will conclude by repeating that the oscillator is suitable to trending markets. It is most harmonious with Fibonacci levels, or support/resistance lines due to its tendency to be volatile and unpredictable.",

        "raw_content": "Promiscuous functions of the prion protein gene family\nThe Prion Gene Family Comprises Four Members\nTestis-Specific Prion Proteins\nPRPc and its Shadow\nFront. Cell Dev. Biol., 02 October 2014 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2014.00056\nRole of the prion protein family in the gonads\nAur\u00e9lie Allais-Bonnet and Eric Pailhoux*\nInstitut National de la Recherche Agronomique, UMR 1198, Biologie du D\u00e9veloppement et Reproduction, Jouy-en-Josas, France\nThe prion-gene family comprises four members named PRNP (PRPc), PRND (Doppel), PRNT (PRT), and SPRN (Shadoo). According to species, PRND is located 16\u201352 kb downstream from the PRNP locus, whereas SPRN is located on another chromosome. The fourth prion-family gene, PRNT, belongs to the same genomic cluster as PRNP and PRND in humans and bovidae. PRNT and PRND possibly resulted from a duplication event of PRND and PRNP, respectively, that occurred early during eutherian species divergence. Although most of the studies concerning the prion-family has been done on PRPc and its involvement in transmissible neurodegenerative disorders, different works report some potential roles of these proteins in the reproductive function of both sexes. Among them, a clear role of PRND, that encodes for the Doppel protein, in male fertility has been demonstrated through gene targeting studies in mice. In other species, Doppel seems to play a role in testis and ovary development but its cellular localization is variable according to the gonadal developmental stage and to the mammalian species considered. For the other three genes, their roles in reproductive function appear ill-defined and/or controversial. The present review aimed to synthesize all the available data on these prion-family members and their relations with reproductive processes, mainly in the gonad of both sexes.\nIn Eutherian mammals, the reproductive system is composed by gonads (testes and ovaries) and the genital tract (male: penis, prostate, seminal vesicle, vas deferens, epididymis; female: vulva, vagina, uterus, and oviduct). Gonads produce sex hormones and gametes (sperms and oocytes), whereas the genital tract provides a suitable environment for the maturation and transport of gametes, the fertilization and implantation of the eggs. The differentiation of reproductive organs follows a specific and variable chronology according to species. In every case, the sex determination occurs immediately at fertilization with the addition of male and female gamete genomes. This step determines the genetic sex of the embryo and induces latter on the differentiation of gonads (arising from mesonephros, a transient embryonic kidney) toward a testicular (XY) or an ovarian (XX) differentiating pathway (DeFalco and Capel, 2009; for review; Figure 1). The undifferentiated gonad is composed by a germinal and two somatic cell-lineages. Each somatic line presents a double potentiality and will be turned toward a specific gonadal fate depending of the genes involved in sex determination, with SRY (Sex-determining Region of Y) being at the top of them (Kashimada and Koopman, 2010; for review). In somatic cell populations, we distinguish: (1) the supporting cells, which will differentiate into Sertoli cells in males and into follicular (also called granulosa) cells in females (these cells are responsible for the growth and the maturation of the germ line); (2) the steroidogenic cells, which will differentiate in Leydig cells in male and theca cells in female (Figure 1). The phenotypic sex, which depends on the gonadal sex and its hormonal production, is set up in many successive steps during development from early gonad differentiation until adulthood. Testes produce androgens and AMH (Anti-M\u00fcllerian Hormone) which are responsible for the differentiation of the genital tract toward the male pathway. Without these hormones the genital tract will differentiate into the female pathway.\nFigure 1. Schematic representation of mammalian gonad differentiation. The genetic sex directs the development of the bipotential gonad toward a male or female gonadal fate. Three cellular types are present in differentiating gonad: somatic supporting cells, somatic steroid-producing cells, and germinal cells. Male and female somatic supporting cells have a common origin and differentiate respectively in Sertoli and granulosa cells. Steroidogenic cells will differentiate in Leydig cells in testis and theca cells in ovary. Testicular-specific features include the formation of the coelomic arterial vessel and of the seminiferous tubules formed by germ and Sertoli cells. Ovarian-specific features are in a chronological order: (i) entry of germ cells into meiosis, (ii) establishment of cortical and medullar compartments, and (iii) formation of follicles, which contain oocytes surrounded by granulosa cells. In agreement with the genetic sex, the development of the phenotypic sex is achieved with the differentiation of the genital tract: epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicle, prostate, and penis in males; oviduct, uterus and vagina in female (Adapted from DeFalco and Capel, 2009; for review).\nMost of the major genes involved in gonad differentiation have been discovered through human genetic studies of DSD (Disorders of Sex Differentiation) cases, but many other genes were found to be expressed in gonads following high throughput mRNA sequencing or other expressional studies. Most of the genes of this last category could putatively be involved in gonadal processes but their role remains to be defined. Among these genes are those of the prion-family. Notably, PRND has been shown to be essential for testicular function in several species (Behrens et al., 2002; Paisley et al., 2004; Kocer et al., 2007). The most studied gene in the prion family is PRNP which encodes a cell surface glycoprotein, the prion protein (PRPc). An infectious isoform of PRPc (PRPsc) has been shown to be the major component of \u201cPrion,\u201d the etiological agent of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). These fatal neurodegenerative disorders include Creutzfelt-Jacob disease (CJD) in humans, bovine spongiform encephalopathy and scrapie in bovidae (Prusiner, 1998).\nThe \u201cprion gene complex\u201d encompasses four members named PRNP. PRND (downstream prion protein-like gene), PRNT (prion protein testis-specific gene), and SPRN (shadow of the prion protein gene). In mouse, sheep, cattle, and rat, the PRNP gene is composed of three exons, whereas only two are present in humans (Yoshimoto et al., 1992; Saeki et al., 1996; Lee et al., 1998; Figure 2). Depending on the studied species, PRND is located 16\u201352 kb downstream of PRNP and PRNT 3 and 6 kb downstream of human and cattle PRND, respectively (Moore et al., 1999; Comincini et al., 2001; Essalmani et al., 2002; Makrinou et al., 2002; Kocer et al., 2007). PRND and PRNT share with PRNP the same genomic cluster and possibly result from a duplication, that occurred early during eutherian species divergence, of PRNP and PRND, respectively. As PRNP. PRND structure can vary from two to three exons between species, whereas PRNT has two exons in humans (Comincini et al., 2001; Makrinou et al., 2002; Figure 2). The same organization of PRNT was predicted in cow, sheep, horse, dog and primates whereas this gene seems to be absent in rodents (Premzl et al., 2004; Harrison et al., 2010; Figure 2). SPRN is not part of the PRNP genomic locus, and is located on another chromosome. SPRN comprises two exons and its structure is conserved in fishes and mammals (Premzl et al., 2003; Figure 2). Some of the prion-family genes produce different transcripts of variable compositions and numbers according to the species.\nFigure 2. Schematic structural representation of prion genes family members. PRNP. PRND, and PRNT are clustered on the same genomic locus. The distance between PRNP. PRND, and PRNT are given in kilobases (kb); according to species, the number of exons could be variable. SPRN consist of two exons and is located on another chromosome in all studied species. Arrows indicate the relative orientation of the genes. Chromosomes carrying these genes are annotated near each species symbols. For each gene, the open reading frame (ORF) is indicated on relevant exons.\nThe mammalian PRNP encodes the PRP protein (PRPc) that contains several distinct domains, including an N-terminal signal peptide, an octapeptide repeat domain, a highly conserved hydrophobic segment and a C-terminal hydrophobic region which contains a glycosylphosphatidylinisitol (GPI) anchor (Figure 3A). This glycoprotein possesses two N-linked glycosylation sites and exists in bi-, mono-, and un-glycosylated forms (Figure 3A). Its secondary structure is defined by the presence of three \u03b1-helices and two \u03b2-strands (Harris, 1999; for review; Figures 3A,B). The mature Doppel protein (DPL) encoded by PRND is a protein which resembles a N-terminally truncated PRPc protein lacking the octamer repeats (Figure 3). In contrast, SPRN encodes the Shadoo protein (SHO) which shares with PRPc a similar N-terminal region with a basic repeat region and a hydrophobic domain (Watts and Westaway, 2007; for review; Figure 3). Few data are available concerning the structure of PRT, the PRNT-encoded protein (Makrinou et al., 2002). No signal peptide was predicted for the 94 aa PRT protein, suggesting it could be an intracellular protein (Premzl and Gamulin, 2007). In bovine, PRNT encodes for an N-terminally truncated protein of 55 aa in length, sharing 55% identity with its human counterpart (Kocer et al., 2007).\nFigure 3.

(Adapted from Schmitt-Ulms et al., 2009; Daude and Westaway, 2011; for review).\nAlthough PRPc and SHO are mainly expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), these two proteins were also detected in male and female gonads (Bendheim et al., 1992; Tanji et al., 1995; Young et al., 2011). DPL and PRT are described as testis-specific proteins (Moore et al., 1999; Tranulis et al., 2001; Makrinou et al., 2002; Kocer et al., 2007). Nevertheless, a transient expression of DPL has been observed in brain of neonatal mice, but this protein is absent in the CNS of adult healthy animals (Li et al., 2000).\nMany studies have been conducted on the role of DPL in testis differentiation but the implication of the other prion proteins in reproduction still remains subjective.\nIn order to comment on the role of a testis-specific protein, it is necessary to introduce the spermatogenesis process allowing the production of male germ cells, spermatozoa (spz). Three different generations of germ cells are visible at any given time among the epithelial cells of the seminiferous tubule: spermatogonia (sg), spermatocytes (spc), and spermatids (std; Figure 4). During spermatogenesis, developing germ cells undergo several mitotic divisions and two meiotic divisions after translocation through the blood-testis barrier, to the luminal side of the epithelium, that is defined by tight junctions between non-dividing Sertoli cells. The final stage of spermatogenesis, known as spermiogenesis, consists of the complex differentiation of round spermatids into spermatozoa (cell elongation, nucleus condensation, acrosome formation, cytoplasm reduction; Figure 4). Throughout spermatogenesis each cluster of germ cells, derived from a single spermatogonium, is interconnected by cytoplasmic bridges that are important for synchronizing the developing process. Thus, the germ cells can be considered as being isolated cells only after they are released as spermatozoa into the lumen of the seminiferous tubule. Upon release, spermatozoa leave behind excess cytoplasm, in the form of interconnected syncytial chains called cytoplasmic lobes (Sprando and Russell, 1987; Weber and Russell, 1987), which are subsequently engulfed and degraded as residual bodies by the Sertoli cells (Espenes et al., 2006). Then spermatozoa are stored in epididymis and undergo maturation processes necessary to acquire motility and capacity to fertilize. Final maturation is completed in the female reproductive tract where spermatozoa acquire the capacities to fertilize oocytes. This last step called capacitation ended with acrosome reaction which consists on the fusion of the acrosome and oocyte membranes, allowing fertilization.\nFigure 4. Illustration of spermatogenesis. Spermatogenesis occurs within the seminiferous tubules of the testes of a post pubescent male. Diploid primordial germ cells (also called spermatogonia; sg) near the basal lamina of the seminiferous tubules undergo an initial mitotic division to produce diploid primary spermatocytes (spc I). Nearly half the primary spermatocytes produced remain near the basal lamina to continue to divide mitotically, thus allowing spermatogenesis to be continuous during male's reproductive lifespan. Other primary spermatocytes migrate toward the lumen of the seminiferous tubules and begin to undergo meiosis I, resulting in haploid secondary spermatocytes (spc II). These secondary spermatocytes further divide through meiosis II, producing haploid spermatids (std). Mature sperm cells (spermatozoa; spz) capable of fertilizing an egg develop from spermatids through the final stage called spermiogenesis. In this stage specific regions of the spermatid differentiate into the head, mid-piece, and the tail of the sperm cell. Within the head, an acrosomal space is developed which houses specific enzymes required for fertilization. Specialized acrosomal membranes that are pertinent for fertilization also differentiate in the head of the sperm. A flagellum develops as a means of motility near the posterior aspect which is fuelled by the abundance of mitochondria in the mid-piece of the sperm cell. (Adapted from buffonescience9.wikispaces website).\nTwo members of the prion-gene family could be considered as testis-specific proteins, PRND and PRNT. PRND/DPL expression has been studied mainly during spermatogenesis in many species. The first common observation is that DPL is expressed in Sertoli cells at various concentrations according to the species (Westaway, 2004; Rondena et al., 2005; Serres et al., 2006; Kocer et al., 2007; Figure 5). Nevertheless, in germ cells, the localization of DPL is less comparable between animals. For example in bovidae, DPL is present early in primordial germ cells in goat fetal gonads (Kocer et al., 2007) and in bovine, this protein is expressed in all stages of male germ cell development during spermatogenesis (spermatogones to ejaculated spermatozoa, Rondena et al., 2005; Figure 5). In contrast, DPL is only detected in spermatids at final stages of spermiogenesis in ovine, human and mice, (Behrens et al., 2002; Espenes et al., 2006; Serres et al., 2006; Figure 5). Interestingly in ram, DPL is observed in spermatids during the elongation process, in Sertoli cells after sperm release and is completely absent in spermatozoa (Espenes et al., 2006). Authors suggest that DPL is present in cytoplasmic lobes of maturing spermatids that culminate in DPL concentration in residual bodies which are subsequently released by spermatids then engulfed by Sertoli cells. DPL seems not to be detected in spermatozoa. However, sperm supplementation with recombinant ovine DPL protein during in vitro capacitation, significantly improves spermatozoa motility, vigor, viability and fertilization rate (Pimenta et al., 2012a). At this step we can proposed that DPL expression in ovine ejaculated sperm may be under the threshold of the detection limit of the method and the antibodies used. Otherwise, DPL could be produced by another cell type in the genital tract thus influencing the behavior of spermatozoa. This hypothesis was also suggested in human by Peoc'h and collaborators which completed previous studies by the localization of DPL on the flagella of epididymal and mature spermatozoa, and in seminal plasma (Peoc'h et al., 2002). As DPL seems to be transiently expressed in spermatids but is not detected in differentiated testicular spermatozoa, these authors considered that DPL could be acquired during the maturation of spermatozoa through the epididymis, as it has been described for other GPI-anchored proteins on spermatozoa (Peoc'h et al., 2002). Serres and collaborators reinforced this hypothesis by the observation of a DPL-staining in epithelial cells of the boar epididymis, suggesting a possible epididymal origin of DPL and a potential role during spermatozoa maturation (Serres et al., 2006). The transient presence of DPL in the final stages of spermiogenesis points an important role of this protein in the final remodeling of spermatids prior to their release into the testicular seminiferous lumen. The role of DPL in this spermiogenesis process was completely demonstrated by the analysis of mouse Prnd knock-out lines. Indeed, ablation of Prnd (Prnd\u2212/\u2212) in two different mouse lines lead to infertile males with different sperm phenotypes.\nFigure 5. Table summarizing the cellular localization of Dopple (DPL) in gonads of various species.\nThe Prnd\u2212/\u2212 mouse line with a 129/Ola genetic background produced low numbers of spermatozoa with poor motility and abnormal nuclei and acrosomes, greatly affecting the fertilization process. Indeed, sperm from DPL-deficient mice appears to be unable to undergo the normal acrosome reaction that is necessary to penetrate the zona pellucida of the ovum and Prnd\u2212/\u2212 males are completely sterile (Behrens et al., 2002).\nThe second Prnd\u2212/\u2212 mouse line produced on a mixed C57BL6/CBA genetic background produced a normal number of motile spermatozoa but these spermatozoa had an altered chromatin structure and DNA damages that induce an early arrest of embryo development (Paisley et al., 2004). A common phenotype between both Prnd\u2212/\u2212 mice is a loss of sperm head integrity.\nIn conclusion, the localization of DPL on both somatic (Sertoli cells) and germinal cells strongly suggests that this protein plays a major role in male fertility. In most species, its expression in testicular germ cells was detected at late stage of spemiogenesis, principally in spermatids with a transient presence in acrosome. These data show that DPL is implicated in normal acrosome genesis and thus in spermatozoa fertilizing ability. Supplemental roles could be attributing to DPL by its presence at earliest stages of testis development in bovine and goats, suggesting an involvement in germinal cell ontogeny. Moreover, DPL has also been detected in goat fetal Leydig cells (steroidogenic cells) where its role remains to be defined (Kocer et al., 2007). Finally some roles of DPL in ovarian differentiation couldn't be discarded since DPL has been detected in female germ cells of goat fetuses and in granulosa cells and follicular fluid in bovine (Rondena et al., 2005; Kocer et al., 2007). This last observation reinforces the idea that DPL may contribute to regulate fertility, since follicular fluid has been shown to influence sperm mobility and fertility (Rodriguez et al., 2001).\nIn order to pinpoint putative other reproductive roles of DPL, it will be of great interest to engineer PRND mutant animals in mammalian species other than mice. For the sex-differentiating process, it is know that the mouse species remains less sensible to gene dosage and haplo-insufficiency than humans. Furthermore, PRND expression profiles suggest additional roles for DPL in goat testis differentiation compare to mice (Kocer et al., 2007). Accordingly, PRND gene ablation in goats is currently under investigation in our laboratory that has recently succeeded in such technologies (Boulanger et al., 2014).\nThree isoforms of human PRNT have been described and are exclusively expressed in the adult testis, thus absent in fetal tissues including testis (Makrinou et al., 2002). In goats, PRNT is weakly and stochastically expressed in both testes and ovaries at various developmental stages, suggesting that the expression pattern of this gene differs between ruminant and human or, most probably, that ruminant PRNT is a pseudogene (Kocer et al., 2007). By contrast, recent results demonstrate that PRT is found in the ram germinal cells. Notably, PRT expression is localized in the nuclei of spermatogonia, spermatocytes, spermatids and in the sperm acrosome. These observations suggest that ovine PRNT could be a translated protein-coding gene, pointing to a role for PRT in the ram spermatogenesis, throughout spermatogenic cell proliferation and sperm maturation (Pimenta et al., 2012b). However, it is difficult to conclude on a real role of PRT during spermatogenesis. The lack of PRT detection in others species, supports the hypothesis that PRT could be a pseudogene.\nIn the CNS, PRPc, and SHO present a partially reciprocal pattern of expression, suggesting a common function of these two proteins in neuronal cells. This overlapping expression leads to Shadoo protein designation (Shadoo is the Japanese word for shadow) and this protein was considered as the putative host-encoded protein that compensates for the lack of PRPc. Although PRPc and SHO are present in gonads, their single and/or common roles are not established in reproductive biology.\nPRPc has been more studied and was detected on spermatozoa of different species including human, cattle and mouse (Shaked et al., 1999) but the nature of PRPc isoforms on spermatozoa is debated and appears different according to antibodies. A first study showed the presence of PRPc on epididymal sperm extracts from epididymis of mouse and bovine and from ejaculated spermatozoa from bovine and human (Figure 6). The molecular weight of PRPc in epididymal sperm cells was similar to that of the brain (control tissue) whereas in mature sperm cells, the PRPc isoform detected is smaller and C-terminally-truncated. Authors suggested that the C-terminal portion of the PRPc is removed during the process of sperm maturation in epididymis and that the protein is inserted via its N-terminal part in the membrane of ejaculated sperm (Shaked et al., 1999). In contrast, Peoc'h group demonstrated that PRPc was recognized on sperm membranes by antibodies binding to the C-terminus part of the protein, suggesting that only N-terminally truncated fragments of PRPc are present in these cells in the human species. In addition in human testes, 3 isoforms of PRPc, an unglycosylated full-length and two N-terminally truncated proteins, are also detected in spermatocytes and spermatids (Peoc'h et al., 2002; Figure 6). Differences in the nature of PRPc truncated (C- or N-term) could be due to differences in the protocol for preparing spermatozoa extracts that could affect proteolysis differentially, or to the antibodies used. Studies in ram supports the work of Shaked and collaborators by demonstrating that one major glycosylated C-terminally truncated PRPc isoform is associated with sperm from testis, cauda epididymis and semen and also in sperm cytoplasmic droplets that are released during maturation (Ecroyd et al., 2004; Figure 6). Other PRPc isoforms were compartmentalized within cauda epididymal fluid and semina plasma (Ecroyd et al., 2004). Indeed, Gatti and colleagues demonstrated the synthesis and secretion of soluble PRPc by the epithelial cells lining the ram epididymis (Figure 6). These cells produce large quantities of a specific isoform of PRPc that seems to be processed post-secretion in different ways during epididymal transit. In ovine spermatozoa, different forms of PRPc have been found, as reported previously for others species (Shaked et al., 1999), that seem to be inserted into the sperm membrane mainly during ejaculation (Gatti et al., 2002). In summary, both glycosylated and proteolytic isoforms of PRPc are present in the male reproductive tract. However, the main isoforms differ between the sperm and the reproductive fluid, suggesting only a low extend of exchange between these two compartments. By studying Prnp deficient mice, a protective role of PRPc against copper toxicity has been proposed since sperm cells originating from Prnp\u2212/\u2212 mice were significantly more susceptible to high copper concentrations than sperm from wild-type mice (Shaked et al., 1999). The presence of an anti-oxidant defense in the sperm-surrounding media is highly important, especially during passage and storage in the epididymis, since these germinal cells lack the molecular machinery to regenerate damaged lipids and proteins. Nevertheless, Prnp null mice are fully fertile and the ablation of Prnp in Prnd\u2212/\u2212 mice has no additional effect on the phenotype described for Prnd\u2212/\u2212 males, suggesting that PRPc is not involved in fertilizing capacity of mice spermatozoa, at least under normal breeding conditions (B\u00fceler et al., 1992; Manson et al., 1994; Paisley et al., 2004).\nFigure 6. Table summarizing the cellular localization of Prion protein (PRPc) in gonads of various species.\nPRPc is also present in the female reproductive tract. This protein has been detected in the ovary, oviduct and uterus of pregnant and cyclic ewes (Moudjou et al., 2001; Tuo et al., 2001; Figure 6). In bovine, PRNP is expressed in both theca and granulosa cells of ovarian follicles notably in developing follicles suggesting that it could promote the growth of dominant follicles (Forde et al., 2008; Figure 6). Again, invalidation of this gene did not induce any noticeable fertility defect in the studied females. However, these animals were kept under control breeding conditions and not challenged, through induction of oxidative stresses for example. Such challenges revealed yet undiscovered function of PrP in other organs, such as placenta (Alfaidy et al., 2013), and such experiments would be of interest to further assess the function of PrP in the gonads.\nAlthough no biological role of SHO has been defined in reproduction, few data are available in mice. Generation of transgenic reporter mice for the gene encoding SHO protein (Sprn) has permitted to show a Sprn-LacZ expression in the male and female gonads. In both cases, staining was cell-specific, in the interstitial Leydig cells in testis and in granulosa cells of ovarian follicle (Young et al., 2011). Leydig cells are the site of testosterone biosynthesis that is required for the development of the male reproductive system, and the initiation and maintenance of spermatogenesis. Deregulation of some genes expressed in Leydig cells such as proliferin-related protein (PRP) result in decreased testosterone production and has an impact on development of male reproductive system and fertility (Zhao et al., 2011). If we consider the testicular SHO localization, could this protein have the same function in male fertility? Another way to determine the function of a protein is to study the ablation of its coding gene. The lack of Sprn in mice has no effect on fertility, as judged by the measurement of the litter size (Daude et al., 2012). Given that DPL is implicated in spermiogenesis and PRPc is present on spermatozoa, one can imagine that these close proteins can compensate each other. Sprn invalidation in Prnd\u2212/\u2212 mice does not increase the testicular phenotype associated with single Prnd knockout (our unpublished data). In the same way, mice deficient for both SHO and PRPc were also found to be viable and fertile (Daude et al., 2012). By contrast, the Sprn knockdown in Prnp\u2212/\u2212 mice presents an embryonic lethal phenotype at developmental stage E7.5 (Passet et al., 2012). Discordant results between SprnKO/PrnpKO and SprnKD/PrnpKO could be due to different mice genetic backgrounds used in these studies or to a genetic adaptation of the double knockout animals. Nevertheless, gene-targeting experiments in mice do not allow yet defining a putative role of SHO in reproduction.\nAmong the prion-gene family members, PRND is yet the sole to have been clearly linked to reproductive biology with a crucial function during the late steps of spermatogenesis. Indeed its gene ablation in mice leads to male infertility. Although expression of the other three members PRNP. PRNT, and SPRN has been demonstrated at mRNA and protein levels in gonads and/or reproductive tracts, their specific reproductive functions, if any, remain to be elucidated. The fact that these putative functions haven't been pointed on by human genetics or gene-targeting in other mammalian species may suggest that these proteins by alone have no critical reproductive functions or that their functions aren't hugely affected by mutational events. Indeed, even if the physiological role of PRPc remains unclear in the central nervous system, according to the fact that Prnp\u2212/\u2212 mice or goats seem to be unaffected and well-being, it is a mis-folding of PRPc (PRPsc) that remains highly detrimental for the central nervous system physiology (a sort of gain-of-function mutation). This means that we cannot exclude some detrimental reproductive effects of these proteins without any mutational changes, but with post-translational and/or conformational changes remaining very difficult to pin-point.\nThe authors want to thank Sophie Mouillet-Richard and Jean-Luc Vilotte for their invitation to submit this manuscript.

        "raw_content": "https://www.futureofcapitalism.com/2013/04/the-underground-economy\nThe New Yorker has an interesting article by James Surowiecki about \"the underground recovery\":\nOff-the-books activity also helps explain a mystery about the current economy: even though the percentage of Americans officially working has dropped dramatically, and even though household income is still well below what it was in 2007, personal consumption is higher than it was before the recession, and retail sales have been growing briskly (despite a dip in March). Bernard Baumohl, an economist at the Economic Outlook Group, estimates that, based on historical patterns, current retail sales are actually what you'd expect if the unemployment rate were around five or six per cent, rather than the 7.6 per cent we're stuck with. The difference, he argues, probably reflects workers migrating into the shadow economy. \"It's typical that during recessions people work on the side while collecting unemployment,\" Baumohl told me. \"But the severity of the recession and the profound weakness of this recovery may mean that a lot more people have entered the underground economy, and have had to stay there longer.\"... Tutors, nannies, yoga teachers, housecleaners, and the like are often paid in cash, which is hard for the I.R.S. to track. In a 2006 study, the economist Catherine Haskins found that between eighty and ninety-seven per cent of nannies were paid under the table.\nLeft mostly unexplored in the article, aside from the glancing though significant mention of unemployment benefits, is the way that regulation and taxes encourage this cash, off-the-books work. The more regulations the government heaps on employers and employees \u2014 health insurance mandates, payroll tax, minimum wage, and other reporting requirements \u2014 the more tempting it is for both parties to cut the government out of the deal and just reach a contract on their own.\nby Editor | Apr 22, 2013 at 10:39 am Related Topics: Health Care, Regulation, Unemployment receive the latest by email: subscribe to the free futureofcapitalism.com mailing list\nThe paradox may not need the underground [110 words] John Gillis Apr 22, 2013 18:13",

        "title": "The Top 5 Sunspot National Solar Observatory Conspiracies Ranked |",
        "raw_content": "The Top 5 Sunspot National Solar Observatory Conspiracies Ranked\nBy: Gaia Staff | September 15th, 2018\nOn Sept. 6, the FBI raided the National Solar Observatory (NSO) in Sunspot New, Mexico, evacuating the facilities, as well as the local post office and a number of residences. They gave no context why and more than a week later, everyone is still in the dark.\nAnd now that the observatory\u2019s sudden closure made international headlines, let\u2019s take a moment to sift through some of the conjecture and conspiracies floating around the internet. Given the information we have, or lack thereof, we\u2019ll outline the top five theories we\u2019ve come across and rate their potential viability.\nOf course, this rating system is highly subjective and open to individual interpretation, but contrary to mainstream headlines about conspiracy theorists \u201cgoing mad\u201d or \u201closing their heads,\u201d we here at Gaia are enjoying the speculation, as long as it turns out that no one is actually in danger or hurt by these unknown events. But based on reactions from the observatory\u2019s administrators it doesn\u2019t seem as if anyone was harmed\nThe following conspiracies will be ranked on a scale of 1-10, with 1 being least likely and 10 being most likely.\nA Chemical Leak\nThe possibility that a chemical leak led to the abrupt evacuation of the observatory and surrounding residences seemed highly plausible, considering the observatory\u2019s telescope uses a significant amount of liquid mercury.\nAdd to that the fact that a Blackhawk helicopter rapidly shuttled in federal agents making it seem like there was a level of urgency typically reserved for situations requiring containment or quarantine. However, this theory has largely been debunked in that an official statement from the director of the observatory denied any spill and assuaged people\u2019s fears.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no mercury incident. That\u2019s a completely different set of protocols that would not have involved them locking all the doors. We have a very regular maintenance routine. There is no cause for concern there.\u201d Sunspot Observatory director R.T. James McAteer told USAToday.\nWhile this claim seems supported by the lack of any HAZMAT cleanup team and minimal cordoning off of the area, one citizen journalist who recently ducked the caution tape and explored the observatory\u2019s campus said he noticed an unsettling chemical smell in the area. Listen to him talk about his recent venture into the observatory\u2019s campus in this interview with Rex Bear.\nWe\u2019ll give this one a 3/10\nThey Discovered a Large, Potentially Dangerous Solar Flare/Geomagnetic Storm\nThis was one of the more popular theories from the get-go due to the nature of the facility. Clearly an observatory dedicated to studying the sun must have found something potentially threatening, such as a large, Earthbound solar flare or coronal mass ejection (CME) days away from annihilating our power grid. In fact, we are overdue for such an occurrence, like the Carrington Event that lit up the night sky in 1859, which would have wreaked havoc had there actually been electrical infrastructure in those days.\nInternet sleuths, most notably on the r/conspiracy subreddit, pointed out that a number of webcams at observatories across the world went down shortly after the story broke on Sunspot. Additionally, the well-known European astronomical website spaceweather.eu suddenly went down and remains so, instead directing traffic to the Royal Observatory of Belgium.\nThe following is a list of some of the observatory webcams around the U.S. that appear to be down at the time of this writing. A disclaimer should be made that it\u2019s not necessarily confirmed if they went down around the time of the Sunspot Observatory\u2019s evacuation or if they\u2019ve been down for a while.\nApache Point Observatory:\nhttp://observatories.hodar.com/sunspot/index.html\nLowell Observatory:\nhttp://observatories.hodar.com/lowell/index.html\nMcDonald Observatory:\nhttp://www.as.utexas.edu/mcdonald/webcams/\nMount Lemmon Observatory:\nhttp://observatories.hodar.com/mtlemmon/webcams.html\nFred Lawrence Whipple Observatory \u2013 Whipple Observatory / Mt. Hopkins Webcams:\nhttp://observatories.hodar.com/mthopkins/webcams.html\nMauna Kea Observatories:\nhttp://observatories.hodar.com/maunakea/webcams.html\nhttp://www5.uhh.hawaii.edu/~webcam/mauna_kea/\nWebcam from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope observatory in Hawaii:\nhttp://www.cfht.hawaii.edu/en/galler\u2026php?opts=still\nOne YouTube user also brought attention to the fact that there are seven hours of observation data missing on the Naval Solar Observatory\u2019s SECCHI feeds starting on Sept. 6, the day Sunspot was evacuated.\nBut what makes this hypothesis seem shallow is that if there were data showing an apocalyptic solar storm headed our way, one would assume that the observatory would be bustling, rather than abandoned. Wouldn\u2019t astronomers be paying extra attention to an impending catastrophe, rather than running for the hills? Well, if the movie 2012 taught us anything, maybe not.\nWe give this one a 6/10\nThey Discovered Definitive Evidence of Extraterrestrial Life\nThis is the one theory everyone secretly hopes is real (or not so secretly depending who you ask). It\u2019s also the one that mainstream media likes to mock us for, but hey, it\u2019s only a matter of time until they eat their words. So, considering the confluence of strange astronomical phenomena as of late, let\u2019s take a look at the evidence.\nThe observatory\u2019s location in Sunspot and the plans for its construction were first proposed in 1947, the same year of the infamous UFO crash at Roswell, just over 100 miles away. Coincidence? Probably, considering the observatory wasn\u2019t actually constructed for some years later, but fun to note.\nWhat many believe is that the observatory viewed some type of alien craft, prompting federal agents to swoop in once they caught wind. They quickly shut down the post office to prevent documents from being mailed, detained all employees to prevent them from going public, and disconnected all communication towers on the premises.\nThere\u2019s also the possibility that someone observed classified alien technology at White Sands Missile Range, considering Sunspot sits atop a hill with sweeping views of the base.\nBut contrary to this extraterrestrial evidence is the fact that the observatory\u2019s director issued a statement saying that they didn\u2019t find aliens and that the facility would release all observation data leading up to its closure, completely unadulterated. But of course he\u2019s going to say they didn\u2019t find aliens. So, for now we\u2019ll say the jury is still out.\nPlease be aliens, please be aliens, please be aliens.\nWe give this a completely unbiased 8/10\nThe Government Is Preparing Us for Disclosure\nMuch like the idea of predictive programming \u2013 where subtle hints of a larger disclosure are fed to the public through media \u2013 some believe the government may be testing public reaction to a shocking event. Raiding a solar observatory, shutting down a small town, and giving no one any context is obviously going to spark conspiracy, conjecture and possibly panic. Surely, they knew the reaction they would elicit.\nAnd so far, all of this has come to fruition, except maybe that you might replace panic with frustration. But as odd as this may sound, there is one piece of evidence that might lend itself to this theory, and that\u2019s the fact that a collector\u2019s edition DVD of the X-Files was found sitting on top of a trash can in the main building of the observatory\u2026 Seriously, you can\u2019t make this stuff up.\nBut in reality, the reason mum\u2019s the word from the FBI likely has to do with an actual discovery, or its prosecutors working frantically to develop a case with sensitive information. And that X-Files DVD is probably someone trolling us.\nThis one gets a 2/10\nEspionage by a Foreign Entity\nOne of the most realistic scenarios for the government shutdown of the Sunspot Observatory is the likelihood that it had been infiltrated by foreign agents using the facilities towers and vantage point to collect intel on regularly tested technology and military development programs conducted at White Sands Missile Range.\nThe sheriff\u2019s account of the evacuation mentions government agents climbing and inspecting the facility\u2019s radio antennas and towers. Could they have been searching for wire taps or other devices used to clandestinely transmit data to an undercover operative\u2019s home country?\nSome have pointed out that the facility\u2019s staffing and operations have dwindled over the past few years, with many operations being transferred to other facilities operated by the NSO in Boulder, CO and Maui, HI. With fewer personnel regularly on site in such an isolated area, it might have been easy for a foreign spook to slip in and plant a surveillance apparatus on one of the towers completely unnoticed.\nAnd just like that, a clear view of one of the government\u2019s most secretive missile testing facilities is under reconnaissance. This would have presented a \u201csecurity issue\u201d as it has been described, instigating federal agents to lock down the facility once someone noticed.\nHowever, some have pointed out that military branches in charge of White Sands and Holloman AFB have their own police forces and investigative branches. But when it comes to counterintelligence, it is in fact part of the FBI\u2019s job description.\nWhile this isn\u2019t as exciting as aliens, it is the most sensible explanation and compared to the aforementioned scenarios, this one seems to satisfy Occam\u2019s Razor \u2013 the most basic explanation is probably the correct one.\nWe\u2019ll give it a 9/10\nWatch this episode of Beyond Belief in which Grant Cameron discusses the government\u2019s role in disclosure:",

        "raw_content": "Probably the best vote for me ad I've ever seen.\nWow. Message and production quality are outstanding.\nI am sure there is a bunch of Texas voters thinking the helicopter wouldn't have crashed if a man was the pilot. I agree this ad is excellent but at three and a half minutes the only people who will ever see it are people online who would vote for her anyway. There is no way this is breaking through the insulated republican bubble.\nYeah, great message and seemingly great candidate but a really slow burn. A better ad company would have tightened that the f' up.\nThat is outstanding! It's especially outstanding that the highest rated comments are telling off the trolls.\nI was also pleased to see her mention that she really enjoyed some of these movies, reminding us once again that we can enjoy some media, even though parts of it may be problematic.\nMy hometown police showing their professionalism.\nhttp://www.unionleader.com/mancheste...\nI wonder what they're high fiving and bro slapping about? /rhetorical\nSchneier talking about his new book about cyber security and policy issues.\nIt's interesting to me that he promotes government regulation as the solution after he points out the fundamental problem: governments are terribly self-interested entities when it comes to technology. No one trusts the NSA to certify something as secure, because they have a vested interest in it not being secure. No one trusts Chinese-produced hardware because their government has been known to compromise it. Nothing is going to change that in the forseeable future, and thus government regulation of technology is untrustworthy in a way that far exceeds other fields. This has been repeatedly demonstrated over the last few years with Equifax, Facebook, Stuxnet, and numerous other incidents.\nFurther, adding more punitive regulation to this space hurts actual security, which relies on openness. Its been shown time and time again that closed-source corporations will hide vulnerabilities and refuse to disclose incidents to avoid embarassment, so imagine the lengths they will go to in order to avoid serious financial penalties. (And those lengths, of course, will still be far cheaper than actual security, in exactly the same way that lobbying is always cheaper than competing). For a perfect example, look at the current state of voting machines. We do not want all software development going down that road.\nFurther, he's wrong about what the market offers currently. The market doesn't just offer bottom-of-the-barrel insecure products. Instead, it offers an huge spectrum of products in a wild variety of forms and functions that address all different kinds of good-fast-cheap tradeoffs. It's absolutely possible to obtain and use software and products that are reasonably secure, but there are costs to that (and often not monetary ones). In fact, most of the actually secure software in the world is free software, developed in an open collaborative model.\nAnd that's the way it should be. People should be able to make their own choices about their own security needs, and balance their own needs against the costs.\nBecause, as we all know, the market and corporations only ever operate in the best interests of their customers.\nAnd the government is a singular body with only one purpose.\nEdit: have Alex Jones and Kevin Spacey ever been seen in the same room together? I have my doubts.\nThe hell? That is so wild I thought it was a deep fake or something using House of Cards footage, especially in the wake of new charges coming to light today.\nApparently it\u2019s a real thing. What a gross display trying to wheedle back into the public eye.\nYeah, I thought it was a \u201cviral\u201d thing.\nWell. That's super gross, and a creepy way to start my day after x-mas. Spacey back is not what i want in my stocking.\nWtf is that Spacey thing?\nI had ignored it for awhile, but finally watched the dumb thing.\nMan, the bubble of wealth and fame can really turn some people into weird motherf*ckers. They no longer understand the normal world.\nI haven't seen Spacey since his appearance in Baby Driver. What happened to his voice? Is he in character? Is this an audition tape for something?\nHe's doing his character from House of Cards, Frank Underwood, who was killed off when it was revealed that he is a pretty disgusting dude.\nGet it? Let me be Frank? Then he mentions that we didn't see him die, and he puts in wedding ring on?\nah House of Cards. Not a viewer & I suppose I don't ever need to start now.\nYeah, it's problematic, for sure. If you like political thrillers, it's a pretty great series. But I can't blame anyone for not wanting to watch it because of him, even though he is one of hundreds that made the show.\nBoycotting can be kind of crappy for everyone else that was just doing their job, especially when he was dumped immediately when his scandal broke. But then, we all have more than we can possibly watch to choose from, so no harm is using this as a way to pare down the list.\n^^^ this is a great insight. For an anecdote - my life is not in any way emptier since I stopped reading or recommending Orson Scott Card over a decade ago. Plus, donating his books to the local evangelical church (the only group who accommodates his worldview) made moving easier.\nIt's a good show, i really enjoyed watching it, that particular \"promotion\" by him is just really offputting, and kind of insulting to his audience and to the character of Frank Underwood he was playing.\nLouis CK with his inevitable demo tape for membership in the \u201cintellectual dark web\u201d.\nReal abhorrent stuff at 23:00 including transphobia, making fun of mentally challenged kids and jokes about the Parkland kids.\nThat was painful. The same voice and style of the Louis CK I used to laugh at, but saying some truly horrific things. And the guy making the recording was laughing hysterically at every one of them.\nI was an enormous Dennis Miller fan all the way up to his firing from MNF. I loved his enormous litany of arcane references and just genuinely found him funny. I was even lucky enough to get front row tickets to see him in 1995 while he was doing a small comedy club in rural Virginia. I kept the promotional poster from that show on my wall for years. As he leaned into his conservative voice it became clear that his style of funny only worked because he was was being honest. The contrived metaphors were just the schtick, the platform to make the jokes. Once his conservative agenda started dictating his act, he stopped being funny because even though the platform was the same, the honesty was gone.\nThis is only one show and when you work the edges of poor taste the way CK does it is entirely possible he was workshopping material he has no plans to ever make part of his act. That said, the Parkland stuff does not seem like the type of thing I would even have believed him capable of saying before his exile. Not because it is disgusting or crude or mean, he has been a king of all three, but because it was monstrously unfunny. I have never seen a \"joke\" of his not land as hard as that one did.\nI am hopeful that Louis isn't going down the same road as Miller did because he feels like he has to grab onto any audience now that his meteoric ride is over.\nThe Parkland stuff (setting aside that it was mean and cruel) made no sense. His hypothesis is that because they're young and inexperienced in life they're not worth listening to even though they literally survived a gun massacre, many of them saying goodbye to their parents (or so they thought), saving lives of their friends, etc.\nIt's not only cruel and monstrous, but it's just really really dumb. The kids are interesting by dint of surviving something like that. If they want to talk I'll listen. The fact that they're also politically astute, active and give a sh*t about things makes them really interesting to me.\nThe \"joke\" is that because he's old and experienced he's more worth listening to. That because he managed, as a white male, to survive to 50, that he's inherently interesting.\nThat's so dumb I don't even think it's worth the words I've typed so far. And with that I'll stop talking about him. Just thought some might find the video enlightening, if only as a reminder that he doesn't deserve a second chance. Not so far.\nPlayer Hater wrote:\nSo you're saying Dennis Miller is the Vichy France of comedy? \"Hey, Adam Carolla is a collaborator, and he's doing OK.\"",

        "raw_content": "My Turn: Five ways your business will benefit from Artificial Intelligence\nBy Elaine Lyerly and Melia Lyerly\nOur understanding of the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) \u2013 or computers that can perform tasks that only humans were capable of previously \u2013 has come a long way since Alan Turing first invented the concept of \u201cthinking machines\u201d in the 1950s and Stanley Kubrick first scared us with them in \"2001: A Space Odyssey\" and the malevolent computer HAL. We are using Artificial Intelligence already on platforms like Google and Spotify, and its use is only predicted to rise. According to management consulting firm McKinsey & Co., AI could automate up to 45 percent of work activities. It\u2019s also presenting opportunities for revolutionizing business, especially for entrepreneurs who are eagerly looking for a boost.\nSo what exactly can AI do for you? Here are a few ideas of how incorporating programs that use AI into your workflow will take your public relations and marketing efforts to new levels:\n\u2022 Improve your data collection. One of the biggest benefits to AI is its data mining capabilities \u2013 in other words, its ability to gather information that will help improve your knowledge about your customers and your ability to disseminate information to the people who might want or need it the most.\nTasks like searching for keywords or choosing target publications can be handed over to AI. Much of this data mining was considered a human task in the past, but programs that use AI can now do some of that thinking for you and free up time for more essential human interactions.\n\u2022 Tailor audience messages rapidly. Many businesses and marketing/PR professionals already know how to tailor their messages to their audiences. But doing it rapidly is often difficult, especially for small businesses, because it means processing large amounts of data about their customer base, which can be time-consuming. AI can process data at far more rapid speeds than before, which means that businesses will be able to put out their messages to target audiences far faster than in the past. In a world where the news cycle is moving rapidly and people consume information at an ever-increasing pace, being able to keep pace is key.\n\u2022 Optimize your time. What\u2019s one of the biggest benefits of incorporating AI into your day-to-day life? The time savings you\u2019ll reap. Because you\u2019ll improve data collection and can serve your clients more efficiently, you\u2019ll save time on tasks that can be not only mundane, but can reduce time that you would otherwise dedicate to seeking out new customers or networking. As a result, by using more automation for certain tasks, you gain time to devote to the most important kinds of human interactions \u2013 the personalized and face-to-face connections that every business needs to thrive.\n\u2022 Grow with you. As your business gets bigger or develops different needs, you\u2019ll be able to adapt the kind of AI you use. Rather than having a stagnant program that struggles to keep up with the needs of a business that\u2019s moving past it, AI is constantly changing. There is a difference between \u201cpragmatic\u201d AI, which learns how to complete specific tasks, and \u201cpure\u201d AI, which literally thinks the way humans do. Right now, pragmatic AI is what most platforms and programs are using; thinking about putting pure AI into practice is a little frightening. But the capabilities are advancing every day and so is our understanding of it.\nChances are that by the time we even consider moving toward using pure AI, there will be a clear path and a set of ethics to help guide and keep us from losing the critical human component.\n\u2022 Augment human insight. Even if AI transitions fully to pure form, it\u2019s unlikely that it will ever be able to supplant human interaction. The act of talking to someone, of listening, of connecting to another human on an emotional and personal level is so critical to a successful business that no matter its talents, AI will have a hard time fully replicating the workings of a human brain and the value of sitting down with someone face-to-face to talk.\nAs a result, think of AI not as a potential replacement for what humans do, but as a way to support it. Even the smartest and most compassionate of us can always use new eyes on our marketing efforts, and AI can be one of the tools in our toolbox to help us serve our customers more effectively.\nNo matter how you feel about artificial intelligence, it\u2019s coming our way, so it\u2019s good to be prepared. And there\u2019s such a big upside to this technological development that can strengthen businesses and their marketing efforts that we suggest you prepare to make the most of it.\nSisters Elaine Lyerly and Melia Lyerly have more than 40 years of experience in marketing, advertising, brand strategy and public relations.

        "title": "Violating Safety Rules Can Lead to Severe Injury - GCJ-Law",
        "raw_content": "GCJ-Law > Blog > In The Law > Violating Safety Rules Can Lead to Severe Injury\n\u201cDo unto others as you would have them do unto you.\u201d A form of the Golden Rule can be found in every major religion, and it is universally understood across disparate cultures and nationalities. The same cannot be said for Louisiana\u2019s legal doctrine of the Golden Rule, which is frequently mischaracterized by the defendants we encounter in our personal injury practice. The issue typically arises when a defendant has violated a safety rule \u2013 such as a statute, a traffic regulation or an industry standard \u2014 and this violation led to an oilfield explosion, car crash, or other injury-causing incident. In these cases, we have seen defendants try to invoke the Golden Rule doctrine to ask the court to prohibit us from making arguments to the jury about the defendants\u2019 rule violations.\nFor example, in one of our cases, the defendant\u2019s employees violated safety rules when they incorrectly loaded a large piece of equipment onto the flatbed trailer of an eighteen-wheeler, which led to a horrific crash that amputated our client\u2019s legs and caused him to suffer a traumatic brain injury. The defendant argued that the Golden Rule doctrine precluded us from talking to the jury about the safety rules that the defendant\u2019s employees violated. But this is not a correct application of Louisiana\u2019s Golden Rule jurisprudence.\nIn reality, Louisiana\u2019s Golden Rule doctrine holds that a plaintiff cannot invoke the biblical Golden Rule and ask the jury to \u201csubstitute sympathy for judgment because the jury is asked to place itself in the position of a party and \u2018do unto others'\u201d the way the jury would themselves want to be treated. Louisiana courts have held that litigants cannot ask jurors to place themselves in the shoes of the litigant when determining the issue of damages (i.e., \u201caward more damages to me because, if you were in my position, you\u2019d want the jury to do this for you\u201d).\nHowever, this does not mean that jurors cannot place themselves in the position of the plaintiff when deciding who was at fault in causing a collision or other injury-causing incident. The Golden Rule cases explain that the jury is entitled to place itself in the shoes of the litigants when determining issues other than damages, such as the reasonableness of a party\u2019s conduct, which is relevant to the issue of liability. See, e.g., Duerden v. PBR Offshore Marine Corp., 471 So. 2d 1111 (La. App. 3 Cir. 1985), writ denied, 476 So. 2d 355 (La. 1985); see also Tingle v. Am. Home Assur. Co., 2010 71 (La. App. 3 Cir. 6/2/10), 40 So. 3d 1169, 1175, writ denied, 2010 1580 (La. 10/29/10), 48 So. 3d 1095. To decide whether the plaintiff or defendant acted reasonably, the jurors are permitted to consider what they themselves would have done if faced with the same situation. Duerden, 471 So.2d at 1114.\nLikewise, violations of rules and regulations are \u201cintuitively relevant\u201d as evidence regarding the reasonableness of a defendant\u2019s conduct. Manchack v. Willamette Indus., Inc., 621 So. 2d 649, 653 (La. App. 2 Cir. 1993), writ denied, 629 So. 2d 1170 (La. 1993). While \u201cregulations are not in and of themselves definitive of civil liability, they may be guidelines for the court in determining standards of negligence by which civil liability is determined.\u201d Parker v. S. Louisiana Contractors, Inc., 370 So. 2d 1310, 1313 (La. App. 1 Cir. 1979), writ denied, 374 So. 2d 662 (La. 1979) (citing Smolinski v. Taulli, 276 So.2d 286, 289 (La. 1973)). \u201cAlthough the violation of [safety] regulations does not constitute negligence per se, they may be relevant in the establishment of the standard of care owed by a particular defendant to a particular plaintiff.\u201d Dupre v. Chevron U.S.A., Inc., 20 F.3d 154, 157 (5th Cir. 1994) (analyzing and applying Louisiana law).\nThankfully, multiple courts in Louisiana have rejected defendants\u2019 attempts to misuse the Golden Rule, and have declined to improperly restrict plaintiffs\u2019 evidence and arguments on the question of liability. See, e.g., Baxter v. Anderson, 277 F. Supp. 3d 860, 865 (M.D. La. 2017). However, we can expect defendants to continue to misuse the Golden Rule doctrine until Louisiana\u2019s district courts receive more guidance from the appellate courts in the form of reported decisions on this issue.\nInterested in learning more about our team of attorneys?

        "raw_content": "Looking Ahead to the OVERWATCH LEAGUE Inaugural Season Playoffs\nIf you have been following the exciting action of the Overwatch League, then you know that the playoffs for the inaugural season are coming in just a few weeks. At the Blizzard Arena in Los Angeles from July 11 to July 21, six teams will play for the two spots in the Grand Finals and a substantial $1,000,000 prize.\nTo get ready for the playoffs, let\u2019s take a brief look at what happened this past year and what we could possibly expect in July.\nDuring Stage 1 play, we saw the emergence of the New York Excelsior as the top team with a 9-1 record. Closely behind them were the Houston Outlaws and the London Spitfire, both with a 7-3 record. In the playoffs, the London Spitfire pulled off victories against the Houston Outlaws (3-1) and the New York Excelsior (3-2) to become the Stage 1 champs.\nStage 1 Champion: London Spitfire\nIn Stage 2, the New York Excelsior (9-1) and the London Spitfire (8-2) found themselves in the playoffs again, but this time the Philadelphia Fusion (7-3) joined them in the number 3 spot. During the playoffs, the Philadelphia Fusion won against the London Spitfire (3-1) but fell to the the New York Excelsior (3-2).\nStage 2 Champion: New York Excelsior\nStage 3 had a bit of a shake-up with the Boston Uprising coming out of stage play with a perfect 10-0 record. Of course, the New York Excelsior were close behind with a 9-1 record. Joining them in the Stage 3 playoffs were the two Los Angeles teams, the Valiant (7-3) and the Gladiators (6-4). The Los Angeles Gladiators lost to the Boston Uprising (3-0), while the Los Angeles Valiant lost to the New York Excelsior (3-0). In the end, the New York Excelsior defeated the Boston Uprising (3-0).\nGoing into Stage 4, the New York Excelsior was set to continue their dominance in the League, but the Los Angeles Valiant and the Los Angeles Gladiators both posted an impressive 9-1 record in stage play. The New York Excelsior made it to the playoffs with a 7-3 record and the Dallas Fuel rounded out the top 4 teams with a 6-4 record. In the playoffs, the Los Angeles Valiant defeated the Los Angeles Gladiators (3-2) and the New York Excelsior defeated the Dallas Fuel (3-2). In the finals, the Los Angeles Valiant pulled off the win (3-1) against New York.\nStage 4 Champion: Los Angeles Valiant\nBefore we look at some possible playoff predictions, let\u2019s look at two of the biggest stories coming out the league. One is the shockingly abysmal season of the Shanghai Dragons. They came in with rather high expectations, but unfortunately the team could never find it\u2019s groove. With a 0-40 overall record, the Dragons will have a lot to fix in the off season. Will that mean a complete roster overhaul or just minor adjustments? We\u2019ll have to see, but that does lead us into the second biggest story and that is the addition of the league\u2019s first female player, Kim \u201cGeguri\u201d Se-yeon. As a top-level Zarya player, she was a part of a roster restructuring that the Shanghai Dragons did in February when they added Geguri, He \u201cSky\u201d Junjian, Lee \u201cFearless\u201d Euiseok, and Chon \u201cAdo\u201d Gihyeon. Many people were calling for the addition of a female player and with Geguri\u2019s impressive stats, it was only a matter of time before she was added to a roster. While some teams feared certain ramifications for signing on a female player, the Shanghai Dragons took a chance.\nGoing into the season playoffs next month, we have the Atlantic Division leaders New York Excelsior (34-6 overall, 1st seed) and the Pacific Division leaders Los Angeles Valiant (27-13, 2nd seed). Next are the Boston Uprising (26-14, 3rd seed), Los Angeles Gladiators (25-15, 4th seed), London Spitfire (24-16, 5th seed), and the Philadelphia Fusion (24-16, 6th seed). With the 1st place seed, the New York Excelsior has earned a bye along with the LA Valiant during the first round of the playoffs. In the Quarterfinal Series, it will be Philadelphia versus Boston and London versus the LA Gladiators. The winners of these matches will head to the Semifinal Series where they will go up against either New York or the LA Valiant.\nIf we\u2019re going to predict who will win those spots in the Grand Finals, it may very well be the 1st and 2nd seeds, but they could face stiff competition from the Boston Uprising and the LA Gladiators. According to SportsBettingDime, NYXL\u2019s championship odds are set at a very favorable 2/3 (60%) while London Spitfire and London Spitfire\u2019s odds are 9/1 (10%). Still, this is the Overwatch League, where almost anything can happen.\nAs to who could possibly win the Grand Finals on July 27-28 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, if the New York Excelsior make it, good money could be put on them. They will have an interesting home field advantage and with the way they have been playing, could take the Finals easily. Time will tell and it all begins in a couple of weeks.\n[Images courtesy of Blizzard Entertainment]\nPreviousEnter the Mind of Stephen King in the New Hulu Series, CASTLE ROCK\nNextTIMELESS Has Been Cancelled Once Again!

        "raw_content": "Gordy Knudtson Biography\nGordy Knudtson BiographyGK Music2017-12-15T08:24:48+00:00\nGordy Knudtson is the drummer for the Steve Miller Band and President/Owner of GK-Music.com, the first company to market hearing protection headphones for musicians. He played piano in grade school, clarinet in middle school, then switched to drums at age 15. Within two years of playing his first professional gig at 17, Gordy was doing studio work in Minneapolis\u2019 busy commercial music scene of the 1970\u2019s. He recorded jingles, radio & TV station logos, and industrial film scores during the day, while performing at night with regionally renown Minneapolis bands Passage, The Doug Maynard Band, and The Lamont Cranston Band.\nIn 1981 Gordy toured the US, Canada, and Australia with guitar legend, Roy Buchanan. The next year he began a six year association with jazz pianist/vocalist Ben Sidran playing clubs and jazz festivals around the world. Gordy can be heard on three of Sidran\u2019s CDs: \u201cCool Paradise\u201d, \u201cToo Hot To Touch\u201d, and \u201cOn the Live Side\u201d.\nIn 1987 Gordy joined the Steve Miller Band. This iconic classic rock band, known for huge 70\u2019s hits like \u201cFly Like an Eagle\u201d, \u201cRockin\u2019 Me\u201d, \u201cJet Airliner\u201d, and \u201cThe Joker\u201d, toured every year until 2001 when Steve decided to take a three year hiatus from performing. Prior to 2001, the band\u2019s TV appearances included: The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Friday Night Videos, and The Arsenio Hall Show; Recordings include: \u201cBorn 2B Blue\u201d, \u201cWide River\u201d, and \u201cThe Box Set\u201d.\nThey resumed regular touring in 2004 and now play 60 to 70 shows a year. They released two CDs, \u201cBingo\u201d (2010) and \u201cLet Your Hair Down\u201d (2011), both recorded at Skywalker Ranch with legendary engineer Andy Johns. Gordy\u2019s post hiatus TV appearances with Steve Miller include: PBS \u2013 Steve Miller Band \u2014 Live from Chicago (2008); CMT \u2013 Crossroads \u2014 Steve Miller & Keney Chesney (2010); BBC \u2013 The Jools Holland Show (2010); Austin City Limits (2011); and AVO \u2013 Session Basel (2012)\nIn 2016 Steve Miller was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Steve and the band performed at his induction ceremony which was broadcast by HBO. (Read Questlove\u2019s post about the band\u2019s performance)\nWhen home in Minneapolis, Gordy has always also done a wide variety freelance work. During the 2001-2003 Miller hiatus, he toured and recorded with Cuban piano virtuoso Nachito Herrera who moved to Minneapolis from Havana in the late 90\u2019s. They recorded a CD on the Dakota Live label called \u201cNachito Herrera Live \u2014 2\u201d released in 2006. In 2007 he was called to fill-in last minute for Anton Fig with Booker T. & the MGs featuring Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn. Fig\u2019s plane was delayed so Gordy covered the first show without rehearsal, receiving kudos from the band, audience, and the press for his performance. The 8/9/07 Minneapolis StarTribune review of the show was headlined Local drummer saves groove for Rock Hall of Famers. In the review Steve Cropper said Gordy was \u201cthe best new drummer I\u2019ve ever worked with.\u201d (See Review)\nIn the late 80\u2019s Gordy began exploring an obscure old drumming technique called open/close, push/pull, or drop/snap technique, which allows you to play a very fast, continuous stream of notes in one hand at a time. Even though this technique had been around for many years it was far from commonplace because it was tricky to do, and appeared to have only a few esoteric uses. It\u2019s also interesting to note that prior to 1999 it seemed no one had figured out how to synchronize it in both hands at the same time to fulfill it\u2019s most obvious potential, a single stroke roll!\nGordy was first to publish this Open/Close Technique single stroke synchronization solution, which he now calls the SINGLED FOUR, in the April 1999 issue of Percussive Notes Magazine. The article titled \u201cA New Approach to the Single Stroke Roll\u201d noted the synchronization was actually comparable to an old heel/toe hand drumming technique.\nIn 2002 Gordy created and published the first books and instructional video on the Open/Close Technique. These materials introduced nomenclature, notation, and synchronizations, then showed how it could be used to create a family of single stroke rolls built from multi-note strokes which directly parallels double stroke rolls.\nUpon seeing Gordy\u2019s work, Ed Shaughnessy declared \u201cYou have developed an historically important form of technique that ranks with the Moeller system!\u201d This endorsement generated an invitation from the Percussive Arts Society to be one of three presenters chosen for a special clinic series on hand technique at PASIC 2003, called the \u201cHand Development Series\u201d. The other two presenters were legendary drum technique gurus \u2013 Joe Morello and Jim Chapin (See Percussive Notes promo article). After Gordy\u2019s presentation Joe Morello said \u201cI\u2019m SO glad you did this! Billy Gladstone was messing around with this when I was studying with him, but he never documented it. I think you took it further than he did!\u201d\nHis YouTube channel, Gordy Knudtson, was started in 2008. The first video was the synchronization solution clip from his Open/Close Technique video (O/C Tech. Pt. 3 \u2013 Basic Strokes and Synchronizations). Since then this clip has had over 275,000 views and inspired other drummers around the world to learn his SINGLED FOUR which you can see at his channel. He has continued to create and post more educational videos helping his channel to collect over 10,000 subscribers.\nWith the publication \u201cMorphing Doubles with Open/Close Technique\u201d in 2011 Gordy showed how the technique could also be used as a new way to understand and practice the mechanics of rudiments. This book introduced another innovation of his, slow motion notation, which allows you to assign precise rhythmic locations and hand movments for every note of a rudimental pattern, including the grace notes.\nLike many other musicians, Gordy suffers from tinnitus and noise induced hearing loss. In 1995 his company, GK Music, became the first to make and market hearing protection stereo headphones designed specifically for drummers called DrumPhones (See Review). These headphones provided much more acoustic isolation than regular headphones. They helped to protect a musician\u2019s hearing from loud external sounds and reduced the need for excessive headphone volume levels. The success of DrumPhones spawned competition, but his current model called UltraPhones, is the isolation headphone of choice for top professionals across the country.\nGordy endorses Paiste Cymbals, Innovative Percussion Drumsticks, Tempus Drums, and ProLogix Practice Pads.",

Joint CEOs Derek & Walter Toward, sons of Walter Senior, remain owners to this day and lead the business with Brian Toward, Derek\u2019s son. Collectively, they share a vision to continue to grow the business, via innovation and investment in both people and infrastructure.\nThis high regard for the extended \u2018Wholesale Domestic Family\u2019 was felt on January 11th 2019 when Tommy Sneddon, an employee with over 43 years of service to the company, hung up his high-vis jacket for the final time. The company celebrated his departure from the business with a retirement lunch, where all 65 staff gathered to say their goodbyes and wish Tommy well. Stories were shared, tears were shed and whisky was drank; it was the perfect send-off for a Wholesale Domestic legend.\nTommy Sneddon started his journey working at the company\u2019s first store in Argyle Street, Glasgow, as a delivery driver. During his 43 years with the company, Tommy worked in many roles for the business and finished his time working at the company\u2019s new state of the art 133,000ft warehouse and dispatch center in Hillington, in the outskirts of Glasgow.\nTommy heard about the position at Wholesale Domestic through his brother-in-law, who told Tommy \u201cit would be a job for life\u201d. Little did Tommy know that this is exactly what it would turn out to be.\nDuring his leaving speech, Tommy Sneddon shared some fantastic memories of his time at Wholesale Domestic Bathrooms.\nTommy Sneddon, lifelong employee of Wholesale Domestic Bathrooms said: \u201cOver the years, I have been well looked after by the Toward family. It\u2019s not every day that you get to work with three generations of the same family. I was signed onto the company by Walter Senior, a great man and, 43 years later, I was signed off by his Son Walter Junior, a friend.\u201d\n\u201cMy fondest memories include our brilliant nights out, I loved nothing more than when we were all together. The Towards, Derek and Walter, became my extended family, the brothers I never had. I am very grateful for what they offered me in terms of employment and support.\u201d\nTommy\u2019s time with the company was filled with both work and play.\nTommy Sneddon recalled: \u201cWe also enjoyed a practical joke or two and would often ambush Walter Junior with elastic bands and paper bullets until he could take no more. We also made a secret rope swing in the rafters while cleaning the roof A-frames of the warehouse and would enjoy swinging about when we were supposed to be doing other things. We still laugh about our antics to this day.\u201d\nWholesale Domestic has gone through many changes over the years, and Tommy Sneddon has been there through it all. He continues to be amazed at how much the company has developed. When recalling the extensive company growth, Tommy summed it up in true Glaswegian style: \u201cIt was like going from an end terrace to a mansion that we filled with great folk along the way. Quite unbelievable really\u201d\nWorking for Wholesale Domestic meant a great deal to Tommy. He couldn\u2019t have been more appreciative about how well he had been looked after during his 43 years. He summed up his time at the company in three words \u201cenjoyable, pleasurable and privileged\u201d.\nJoint Managing Director, Walter Toward, said: \u201cIt\u2019s almost impossible to put into words the contribution that Tommy Sneddon has made to Wholesale Domestic over the last 43 years. He is truly part of the brickwork that has made this company what it is today. My family and the company wish Tommy well, it certainly won\u2019t be the same without him.\u201d\nPictured: Brian Toward, Derek Toward, Tommy Sneddon, Walter Toward.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Benefits > IRS complicates health plan waivers of coverage\nMany employers provide a cash payment to an employee who waives employee medical plan coverage. Contrary to popular belief, this practice is not \u201cillegal\u201d under U.S. law. However, because of new guidance contained in IRS Notice, 2015-87 (December 16, 2015), employers may want to provide \u201cwaiver payments\u201d to U.S. employees, only if they can show that they have other health care plan coverage.\nNew IRS guidance\nThe best way to understand the new IRS guidance is by example. Assume an employer has a medical plan and charges employees $80.00 per month for single coverage; and that the employer offers a $100.00 per month cash payment to an employee who waives coverage.\nThe IRS view is that if the employee\u2019s waiver of coverage is \u201cunconditional\u201d, the cost of the employee coverage is $180.00 per month. Thus, in essence, the employer also has to count the extra $100.00 per month that the employee could receive in cash, if he or she waived coverage.\nNevertheless, it appears that this result can be avoided if the employee\u2019s waiver of coverage has some meaningful \u201cconditions\u201d attached to it. For example, this result can be avoided if the waiver payment is conditioned on the employee demonstrating that he or she has other medical plan coverage.\nThe practical impact\nUnder IRC Section 4980H(b), an employer can be subject to a monthly tax ($260.00 in 2015) if (i) the employer\u2019s offer of medical plan coverage to an employee is not \u201caffordable\u201d, and (ii) the employee enrolls for coverage at the Exchange.\nEssentially, this new interpretation of the law pertaining to unconditional waivers can turn \u201caffordable\u201d coverage into coverage that is \u201cnot affordable\u201d. Using the foregoing example, if the cost of employee only coverage is $80.00 per month, that cost clearly is \u201caffordable\u201d under IRC Section 4980H. However, if the cost to the employee must be considered $180.00 per month, that cost will not be \u201caffordable\u201d for some employees.\nIf an employer is currently using an \u201cunconditional\u201d waiver of coverage, should it modify that practice to require an employee to show evidence of other coverage? Certainly, doing so will help to insulate the employer from some level of potential tax liability under IRC Section 4980H(b). However, if the actual amount of tax risk is minimal, the employer may want to consider whether it is worthwhile amending its policies and practices to require proof of other coverage. It is a judgment call.\nThe effective date\nAt this point, the IRS has simply announced that it is anticipating issuing new regulations in the future that will provide for this result.\nThe IRS has stated that if an employer had an existing waiver of coverage option for employees as of December 15, 2015, the new rules will not apply to that existing waiver option, until after the new regulations are issued. Thus, no immediate changes are necessary for existing waiver policies.\nNevertheless, if an employer institutes a new waiver of coverage option after December 15, 2015, the new rules described above will immediately apply to that new waiver of coverage option.\nTags: health plan waiver, US",

What\u2019s stopping us?\u201d asked Harvey V. Fineberg, president of the Institute of Medicine, during a lecture Tuesday at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.\nFineberg discussed a dozen top challenges that make prevention a hard-sell such as invisibility, lack of drama and our bias against errors of commission\u2014just to name a few. Then he offered observations on how they might be overcome: involving employers, using policy, and making prevention cheaper than free, for instance.\nThe key, he insisted, is to make prevention the norm. \u201cMy definition of a culture of health is when it\u2019s a choice without a decision. It\u2019s just the natural, easy, obvious easy way to live your life. And when we\u2019ve gotten to that point, then we can honestly say we\u2019ve overcome these obstacles, and we have made prevention not simply celebrated in principle but effective in practice.\u201d\nFineberg spoke as part of a celebration of 50 years of Preventive Medicine Training at the Bloomberg School. \u2014Maryalice Yakutchik, Editor, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health\nGlobal Health Innovation is Key, Says Mundel",

        "raw_content": "Cover credit: The Federalist\nWe\u2019ve been told our whole lives that we can do anything we want, and success will come to us even sooner than we\u2019d expect.\nBut the truth is, almost all the friends my age can describe their current state as \u201cdisappointing.\u201d\nYou see, although we most definitely can achieve what we set our minds to, it won\u2019t come as fast as we\u2019ve been told. Results take time. It is this ideology millennials have that is steering them right into a whirlpool of frustration and self-doubt.\nIn fact, here are the four main misconceptions that are falsely shaping our lives.\n1. I am alone in this.\nBeing in your twenties can be very scary and I speak from a very personal experience. You\u2019ve graduated college and it\u2019s time to figure out what you have to do for the rest of your lives. There are no teachers to guide you, and your parents won\u2019t be of much help at this stage. It\u2019s all you now, that\u2019s where things get a bit lonely. But rest assured, everyone you know is probably going through that same phase. No one wants to admit they are confused, but almost everyone is.\n2. I should have been successful already.\nNo, no, no! There is no way you would have been successful already, so stop putting yourself down. If life were a race, your twenties would be the stage you build your endurance. You won\u2019t start sprinting till later on, so calm down. Success won\u2019t be handed to you, it will take blood, sweat, and tears; it\u2019s a lot of hard-work and a substantial amount of time. One thing is for sure though, you are already one step closer to it, so keep going.\n3. I don\u2019t have what it takes.\nYes you do, you most certainly do. The frustration you feel stems from your confusion not your lack of abilities. If you are currently feeling demotivated, it is completely normal. It\u2019s not a sign of failure, it\u2019s just a small phase you have to go through before you figure out your path. You will change your mind many times but don\u2019t stress about it. There is no deadline; all that matters is you finding what makes you happy and progressing in that path. It\u2019s not a task to be rushed.\n4. Life isn\u2019t how it \u201cshould be.\u201d\nThat is one phrase I have heard consistently from the people around me. There is no \u201cshould be\u201d with life, you can\u2019t dictate how it will go. You can set a general guideline of its direction but never the details. Life happens, and you need to adapt to its changing circumstances.\nWhat is success in your twenties?

Credit: JP Yim/Getty Images\nEarlier this month, billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates announced a plan to donate 100,000 baby chickens to poor nations in an effort to end extreme poverty. Gates presented his plan at the World Trade Center tower in Manhattan on June 8, as a man beside him took out and held a chick from a large chicken coop set up next to them.\nThe chicks will go to rural areas in two dozen developing countries, from Burkina Faso to Bolivia, where the Heifer International charity manages breeding operations and distribution, according to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.\nGates, cofounder of Microsoft, said that \u201craising and selling chickens can lift families out of poverty, and a farmer breeding 250 chickens a year could make $1,250 U.S.\u201d He added that there\u2019s \u201cno investment that has a return percentage anything like being able to breed chickens.\u201d\nBut Bolivia, one of the countries set to receive the donation, has refused to accept it, considering Gates' gift as \"offensive.\"\nAccording to the Financial Times, Bolivia's minister of land and rural development, C\u00e9sar Cocarico, said: \"[Gates] does not know Bolivia\u2019s reality to think we are living 500 years ago, in the middle of the jungle not knowing how to produce.\" Cocarico also asked that Gates apologize to them.\nGates had said he aimed to raise household chicken ownership in places such as West Africa, where it is now five percent, to 30 percent. \"The numbers today in terms of Americans who give to Heifer or things like that is actually quite small, so we'd like to see that scaled up,\" Gates said.\nReferring to the proverb that teaching a man to fish will feed him for a lifetime, he said: \"The parable could have been stated in terms of giving somebody a chicken and showing them how to raise chickens.\"\nAccording to the U.N., an estimated 800 million people live in extreme poverty, with those in fragile and conflict-torn states suffering the most.\nBILL GATES, BOLIVIA, CHICKEN, POULTRY, MANHATTAN, WORLD TRADE CENTER, BURKINA FASO, MICROSOFT, UNITED NATIONS\nJun 18 How to overcome phobias, according to psychology",

        "raw_content": "Research Stay (selected menu item)\nBring your research to the next level when you are invited to return for a fully-funded research stay. Spend up to three months at a German facility of your own choice. Gain new experiences in an inspiring environment and advance your professional career while establishing long-lasting relationships.\nHaving spent impressive two-weeks in Germany, the Green Talents are invited to return the year after the Science Forum. The research stay can be up to three months long and can be conducted at a research institute, university or company of the participant\u2019s own choice. It is up to the young scientists to identify a suitable host, to contact them and to agree on a time period as well as on a research topic with them. The individual expert meetings can already help in this regard. Nevertheless, the Green Talents are free to not only work at one of the stations they visited during the forum, but at any other German facility that will accept them. However, a splitting of the term or a switch of hosts is not possible.\nJust like the forum, the research stay is fully financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). These benefits include the flights to and from Germany as well as a monthly allowance which covers all living expenses (accommodation, insurances, food, public transport etc.). The allowance is not supposed to provide direct research funding but to enable the participant to support himself during the stay. In order to evaluate the outcome of the initiative, the Green Talents are afterwards requested to hand in a report about the work conducted in Germany and if their previously set goals were achieved.\nThe research stay is a unique opportunity for the young talents to explore their skills in a new, inspiring environment and to identify valuable collaboration partners for the future. Germany welcomes them with excellent living conditions and top-class research facilities. It is therefore not surprising that some Green Talents have seized the chance to stay here after their visit and are now working at renowned German institutes, universities and companies.\nLearn more about how the Green Talents story continues for our awardees when they return to Germany for their research stays. more: Research Stays of Green Talents awardees.\nLinjun Xie has a background in Urban Sustainable Development from her studies at University of Nottingham Ningbo in China.

        "raw_content": "Court orders child support payments to continue for adopted boy\nOn behalf of Law Offices of Harris & Literski posted in Child Support on Tuesday, July 31, 2012.\nIn family law, there are many instances in which the courts will make decisions for the parties involved, depending on the circumstances of the case. For example, regarding child support, Michigan courts are actively involved and are very adamant about compliance.\nChild support must be paid, and it must be paid in a timely fashion. The whole purpose of child support is to ensure that the child is provided for financially, and the money a non-custodial parent pays is intended for the best interests of the child.\nWith that in mind, our readers in the Brighton area may be interested in a child support case that was recently decided upon in Tennessee. A woman who adopted a young boy from Russia and later returned him because she no longer wanted to be his adoptive parent was forced by a Tennessee court to pay $150,000 in child support.\nThe judge in this case was not compelled by the argument that the adopted child had behavioral problems or was a menace to the family. However, this case may not be over yet, as the woman can still request a child support modification from the court.\nIn Michigan as elsewhere, people who are delinquent with support payments or fail to pay them at all can be subject to penalties. These can include, but are not limited to, license suspension or jail. If there is ever a problem with making child support payments, the courts may take any change in the paying parent's financial circumstances into consideration, and will modify a child support order if doing so is warranted. It is never a good idea to simply not pay, and non-custodial parents should be aware of their options if a job loss or other problem has resulted in financial hardship.\nSource: The Tennessean, \"Tearful TN mom must pay support for boy sent back to Russia,\" Kristin M.

Children do not necessarily have a voice when matters of divorce rear its ugly head and this is unfortunate because they need to be protected throughout this process. With that being said, the courts look to ensure that the children of divorce are taken care of emotionally, financially and physically. In doing this, the courts will use a child support formula to determine what someone has to pay in child support.\nA member of a famous rap group, the Ying-Yang Twins, has made a plea to the courts that he cannot afford the child support payments that were ordered by the courts. Apparently, the rap artist claimed that he no longer makes the money that he used to make when the child support order was first handed down. As such, he requested that the court lessen the amount of child support that he had to pay each month. Based on documentation that was provided to the court, the child support payments were lowered.\nThe courts are not looking to put someone in financial arrears when it comes to child support. The whole purpose of child support is to ensure that the child is taken care of and financially secure as they go through life. Often times, the custodial parent will petition the court for child support to assist with the rearing of the child. When this is done, the courts use a formula to determine how much money should be paid on a monthly basis for the child's care.\nThe courts are not looking to put child support payers in financial straights. They are looking to work with individuals to ensure that the payments are fair and justifiable.\nSource: AllHipHop News, \"D-Roc Of Ying Yang Twins Seeks Help With Unaffordable Child Support Payments,\" Nov. 18, 2013\nTags: Child support, custodial parent",

        "raw_content": "How One Woman Copes With the Fear of Diabetes Complications\nKnowledge is power. The more you know about staying healthy, the better.(RADIUS/MASTERFILE)It's a vicious cycle for people with diabetes: Stress and depression associated with the complications of the disease can jeopardize health (stress can increase blood sugar and depressed people have a harder time taking care of themselves). But scary-sounding diabetes complications can understandably trigger fear and depression.\nSo what's the key to breaking the cycle? Knowledge. People with diabetes now have more tools at their disposal to prevent complications than ever before.\nIf anyone should be depressed about having type 2 diabetes, it's Sheri Gibson, a 50-year-old grant writer from Chicago. She was diagnosed with type 2 in 2005, a month after her brother Rick passed away from the disease.\nRick was an amputee, legally blind, on dialysis, and had a quadruple bypass before his death at age 48. Another brother, Douglas, also had type 2 and died at 36 during an angioplasty procedure to open up his clogged arteries. Her mother passed away in May, at the age of 74, from diabetes complications.\nWhat's more, Gibson has two nephews with the disease, one of whom is not yet 30 years old but is legally blind and on dialysis. Her sister was recently diagnosed as well.\nNext Page: Preventing complications [ pagebreak ]More about diabetes\nHow One Woman Copes With Depression\nWhy There Is a Link Between Depression and Diabetes\nComplications can be prevented\nGibson could be frozen with fear. Instead she considers herself fortunate to have the disease now rather than a decade ago.\n\"They didn't have the technology 10 years ago that we do or access even to the medication and the education 10 years ago that we have now,\" she says.\nToday doctors try to identify patients earlier and attack their diabetes more aggressively by lowering blood sugar to safe levels. This approach, along with blood pressure and cholesterol control, can stave off devastating complications.\nGibson never saw her family members with diabetes change their diets or adopt other healthy behaviors. She, on the other hand, has made it her mission to become an educated patient. \"I've learned how, unlike them, to manage and live a healthy life with the disease,\" she says.\nShe sees her doctor regularly, takes her medicine, and tests her blood sugar sometimes four times a day. She even sold her car so she would be forced to walk instead of drive, because exercise can lower blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol, and reduce the risk for heart disease and stroke.\nControlling blood pressure is important\nGibson considers herself lucky when it comes to heart health. She doesn't have high blood pressure like her brothers did and her sister does. \"They had the double whammy\u0097diabetes and high blood pressure,\" she says. Plus, her cholesterol is good.\nAt the same time, though, she's battling a nicotine habit, which can aggravate many complications of diabetes. Giving up cigarettes has been more difficult than she anticipated, but Gibson is well aware that smoking is bad for the heart, and she hopes to be smoke-free soon.\n\"Do these complications concern me? Heck yeah. I'm neurotic about my numbers because of the family deaths,\" she concedes. \"The complications are devastating, and I don't want any.\"",

        "title": "A Guide to Chronic Care Management | The Healthcare Guys",
        "raw_content": "Monday, July 24, 2017, 2 years ago\nIn the last few years, one of the biggest challenges healthcare has faced on the road to value-based care has been chronic care management. The healthcare organizations we have today are well-equipped to treat acute episodes or countering emergencies, but there has to be a greater focus on managing chronic conditions and comorbidities. A report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows the glaring statistics:\nChronic diseases claim 7 out of 10 deaths in the U.S. and are responsible for more than 1.7 million deaths every year.\n45% of all Americans have at least one chronic condition.\nUp until 2012, about 117 million people had one or more chronic conditions, accounting for 86% of the entire U.S. healthcare expenditure.\nThe fact that chronic conditions never exist in isolation and the threats relating to comorbidities only increase with age, it\u2019s paramount that the focus shifts from treating acute episodes to manage chronic conditions and prevent them from occurring in the first place.\nThe case for transformation in care delivery\nThe issues related to chronic conditions are severe and complex. Managing chronic conditions is difficult as the conditions may either be connected or contribute to another. Apart from avoiding conflicting treatments, there are several cases that demand attention:\nFragmented care delivery: Several patients report that they don\u2019t have access to a well-informed coordinated care and some of them end up visiting an inappropriate care setting. In other cases, patients face troubles due to lack of coordination on providers\u2019 end which may result in clashing treatments.\nAn increase in risk factors: Over the years, owing to changes in lifestyle, living conditions, and pre-existing conditions, there has been an increase in disease-specific risk factors like obesity and diabetes, that may lead to serious cardiovascular and renal diseases.\nManaging multiple conditions: There is a greater need for coordination to achieve clarity on how to treat multiple conditions without bringing up potential complications that can be costly, severe, and even life-threatening.\nIncreasing costs of care: Chronic conditions account for the lion\u2019s share in the nation\u2019s healthcare spending. Diabetes alone takes up more than $100 billion out of $3.2 trillion spent on healthcare.\nCMS stepping up chronic care management\nIn January 2015, CMS came up with a Chronic Care Management model that offered reimbursements to providers on a monthly basis for delivering quality care services to Medicare beneficiaries with two or more chronic conditions.\nHowever, the adaption has been slower than it should have been, with almost half the practices saying they were unaware that Medicare offered reimbursement for non face-to-face interactions. Apart from that, there are several other barriers along the way:\nLack of time to offer extra guidance and reinforcements to patients.\nCost concerns and ensuring adherence to care plans.\nReimbursements to be performed using a certified electronic health record that is accessible to all members of the care team.\nNecessary patient consent along with $8 monthly copay.\nAchieving ROI with chronic care management\nThere are several challenges with chronic conditions, true, but these issues are only going to grow in the coming years. It\u2019s high time healthcare organizations analyze the financial and operational challenges and develop a simple, clear-cut plan that offers more coordination, integration, and the ability to track potential complications. Some possible steps that can be taken are:\nFigure out a plausible care management\nCreate patient-specific care goals.\nMonitor the outcomes of interventions and pinpoint areas of focus.\nAddress the needs and gaps in care.\nMost of all, the emphasis should be on how can patients improve their lives. Patients are educated and aware of the conditions and the gravity and yet are unable to change their behavior. Physicians can step back and take a look at drivers that cause patients to change the course of their treatments. Physicians and care teams can improve communication with patients, interview them and allow them to participate in decision-making to engage and empower them. The aim is end-to-end population health management: to improve the quality of life and not just provide longevity. Only then we would be able to create an impactful value-based ecosystem.\nDigital Transformation Challenges in Healthcare Information Technology and Medical Devices",

Even FEMA uses Waffle House as a barometer to measure how intensely a storm has ravaged an area. They call it the Waffle House Index. According to NPR\u2019s Ari Shapiro, \u201cWaffle House restaurants are open 24/7, so the threshold for them to close is extremely high, making them good measurements of a storm\u2019s severity.\u201d\nLike they\u2019ve been in the past, Waffle House was quick to prepare for Hurricane Florence, sending out \u201cjump teams\u201d to respond to areas they felt would be hardest hit by the storm. Waffle House spokesman Pat Warner said the teams descended upon the Carolinas equipped with generators to supply power and set up fuel depots, ensuring that area restaurants would be ready to serve up their classic dishes. CEO Walt Ehmer was in Wilmington, North Carolina, to help out as well.\nSo what\u2019s the point of putting in so much effort under these circumstances? Why, while all its competition shutters their doors, does Waffle House decide to power through? While the Waffle House Index makes for great publicity, it\u2019s not necessarily the cheapest or easiest process to maintain. So what gives?\nWhat it all seems to boil down to is creating a brand that\u2019s synonymous with reliability. In Waffle House\u2019s case, being available guarantees that customers can rely on their local Waffle House even when other aspects of their lives are out of control. The familiarity of hot grits and griddle hash browns might be exactly what someone needs. Being a safe haven also fosters a sense of community. Spokesman Warner says, \u201cWe want to have that place where people can gather and talk about the storm over eggs and bacon and check in on their neighbors.\u201d\nWhile Waffle House\u2019s hurricane response might seem unique, other businesses can take away important lessons of their own. To become more reliable, you don\u2019t need your own jump team. If you want customers to reach out to your company, then create availability through as many channels as possible (Help.com\u2019s platform can help with that). And if you want to excel in customer relationships, you need to see your customers first as people and understand their needs\u2013just like Waffle House does.\nIn the end, the Waffle House Index is more than just a gimmick. While the name is fun, in reality, the chain\u2019s well-known presence during hurricanes establishes a strong relationship with the communities it serves. It\u2019s the kind of thing that no hurricane can sweep away, no matter how mighty.",

Daisy Potten as Olivia and Niall Davies as Fagin.\nOlivia! is a musical show set in Victorian times, echoing the famous musical Oliver, but with a twist.\nFrom downtrodden orphan to star of the stage, Olivia meets Eliza Doolittle, Fagin, the Artful Dodger, Ebenezer Scrooge, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson and Sweeny Todd - to name just a few classic characters.\nThirty-four young people (aged from nine to 18) from Berkhamsted Youth Theatre bring the show to life at The Court Theatre in Tring at 7.30pm from tomorrow (Thursday) until Saturday April 30, when there is an additional 2.30pm matinee.\nFor the last three months the cast has been hard at work learning words, songs and dance steps. And the crew has been making sets of Covent Garden and Sherlock Holmes\u2019 study, preparing costumes and props from baskets of flowers to bowlfuls of \u2018slop\u2019.\nEvery production needs many people to make it happen and 90% of those people are parents of current and former members.\nThe theatre group has staged over 35 productions with casts large and small including Shakespeare, musicals and Agatha Christie thrillers.\nBerkhamsted School pupil Niall Davies, 16, stars as Fagin in Olivia! and said: \u201cI first joined Berkhamsted Youth Theatre in 2010 after taking an interest in performing whilst rehearsing my school play. What I didn\u2019t realise then is that BYT is not all about the acting, it is as much a social group as it is a youth theatre.\u201d\nNew members are always welcome, contact the membership secretary penny.perry@gmail.com\nTickets for Olivia! cost from \u00a35 - \u00a310 and are available from Berkhamsted Imaging Centre at 226 High Street; Beechwood Fine Foods in Frogmore Street, Tring; and online at www.courttheatre.co.uk",

        "raw_content": "Coming up roses in Chiswell Green\nThe central pergola at the Gardens of the Rose\nRoses are the nation's favourite flower and the newly-designed Gardens of the Rose at Chiswell Green show them at their very best. Philippa Pearson reports\nAFTER nearly three years of extensive work, the newly-designed Gardens of the Rose at the Royal National Rose Society's headquarters at Chiswell Green opens this month. Landscape architect Michael Balston has designed and implemented the new gardens while renowned horticulturist Tony Lord VMH has overseen the planting schemes.\nSweeping vistas, punctuated by three ornamental ponds set amid broad pathways, open up views from the main house and plenty of new features are incorporated. These include new inspirational display gardens while other well-loved features, such as the Presidents' Walk and the Queen Mother Garden, have been re-designed and re-planted to incorporate new design elements.\nWork began in autumn 2004 when the whole site was cleared before the new curvilinear structure of paths and display beds was put into place. More than 8,000 roses have been planted, donated by various rose growers and covering 2,500 varieties, which makes this one of the most comprehensive collections of roses in the country.\nThe garden has year-round appeal as traditional and contemporary rose plantings blend with perennials, grasses, shrubs and trees to extend the seasons. At the heart of the garden, the impressive elliptically-shaped Central Pergola is packed with climbing and rambling roses and clematis. This 70-metre long (230 feet) steel construction was donated by Germany-based Classic Garden Elements which has also given obelisks and rose supports for other areas of the garden.\nRichard Adams, chief executive of the Royal National Rose Society, hopes the garden will appeal not only to rose and garden-lovers, but to local people as a place to come and visit, sit, relax and enjoy the tranquil and fragranced surroundings.\n'The society was founded in 1876, but we have shaped the new gardens for the 21st century,' says Richard. 'They will be a place of peace and beauty, just as the previous gardens were, but the new design has many more roses than before and focuses on their use as part of wider planting schemes. We want people to appreciate the many varieties available and to be inspired to grow roses in their own gardens.'\nArticle taken from June issue of Hertfordshire Life",

They are relentlessly optimistic. The economy is dropping like a rock. A great time to buy! The economy is sizzling red-hot. A great time to sell! I was impressed with the reasonably objective research and conclusions of Edmonton realtor (and ex-accountant) Kathy Schmidt, in her monthly The Schmidt Report. The sky is not falling, she argues, not in Edmonton\u2019s housing market. It has crashed down in Fort McMurray, it\u2019s falling in Calgary, but here, we\u2019re just a little overcast. Median house prices are down \u2013 about 3% \u2014 in most of Metropolitan Edmonton, a median price of about $340,000 compared to $350,000 at this time last year. (\u201cMedian\u201d excludes the very top and very bottom ends of the housing market. At the top end, Edmonton houses listed at $600,000 or more are down more than 3%.) But the market, Schmidt says, is busy. More homes (houses and condos) were sold last month than were sold in January a year ago. Th ...

Airdrie-based Carbon Credit Solutions (CCS) Inc. partners up with folks (mostly farmers) who can create Alberta government-approved carbon credits. It assists in \u201cmaking\u201d these carbon credits, then buys and sells them, hopefully for a profit. Making a profit can\u2019t be that difficult, not when the monetary value of these Alberta carbon credits should jump by 50% in a year\u2019s time. That\u2019s when the Notley government says it will raise the levy, basically a tax on excess carbon emission, from $20 to $30 a tonne on companies pushing too much CO2 up their smokestacks. (A tonne of CO2 is roughly the amount of CO2 an average coal-burning power plant sends up its smokestack every hour.) Companies either pay the levy, or they can purchase carbon credits from companies like CCS to offset excess CO2 emissions. The market value of a carbon cred ...

Meanwhile, the provincial demand for electricity will grow from 14,500 megawatts (MW) today, to 17,500 MW by 2030. This is the triumph of ideology over evidence-based science. This illogical, ill-conceived government decree will result in wasting billions of dollars with no net environmental gain. Today in Alberta, there are 18 major coal-burning power generation units. Four are close to the end of their useful lives and will close within two years. Of the 14 still operating, six will still have plenty of juice left come 2030. The case for coal: coal is the cheapest, most reliable source of electricity in Alberta, crucial in keeping Alberta\u2019s industry competitive. In 2015, it provided 43% of the province\u2019s power.

        "raw_content": "Homepage > Addiction Day Treatment > An Ethical Compass\nBy Carey Davidson, MAC, CIP, ICADAC, CAI\nAt two years sober, I thought I had all the answers. I was heavily involved in my 12 step program and felt incredibly confident in my recovery. I started to gain notoriety in the recovery community, and when people were in crisis, they knew I was a solid resource to whom they could turn for help. I was, and still am\u2014 passionate about confronting the disease of addiction. \u201cWhy not?,\u201d I thought. So, I did it. I printed up cards and called myself an \u201cInterventionist.\u201d It was easy. I recalled when applying for my real estate license, I was required to be finger printed and participate in a background check. However, all I needed to do to guide vulnerable patients and their often desperate families through this life-threatening disease was print up a card. Without the proper training and certification, I had only one tool\u2014 my own recovery experience. I placed many people in treatment, but I\u2019ll never know the extent of damage I may have caused families along the way.\nLuckily, after a couple of tough cases in a row, I realized my approach, while legal and extremely common in the field, was not in the best interest of those I served. Families depended on me to guide them and their loved ones into recovery. The course of their lives would be significantly impacted by my guidance, and the work I had done in my personal recovery program \u2018could never substitute for the formal education and clinical training I knew I needed\u2019.\nConsequently, I enrolled in the Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School of Addiction Studies, where on the first day they inform you: \u201cIf you are looking to get your Masters in the 12 steps, you\u2019re in the wrong place.\u201d\nTo fulfill my passion to helping others I went back to school and earned a Masters Level degree in addiction studies and counseling, which included rigorous academics and more than 1,200 clinically supervised hours working with patients. I dedicated myself to education because, although my passion for this field hadn\u2019t changed, my responsibilities to struggling families extended far beyond a simple desire to help people. If I was going to offer myself as a credible resource to the vulnerable, I had to become a trained professional with a solid clinical background.\nOne key difference between a trained professional and a layperson is that a layperson works solely from personal experience and a professional works from an empirically-evidenced theory.\nTHE FAMILIES OF THOSE IN NEED\nWhile I can never \u201cundo\u201d what has been done, I have had to own some difficult truths as I\u2019ve moved forward in the field. I now find myself hyperaware of the many untrained interventionists around me who, unfortunately, continue to do harm.\nFamily can be the most powerful and motivating force in an individual\u2019s life. Those traits, amplified in crisis, can be a family\u2019s greatest asset or liability. There are those in this industry who capitalize on this vulnerability in an unethical manner. It is essential families are able to place their trust in capable, educated, and accountable specialists.\nHowever, because the behavioral health field is so vast, multi-faceted, and unregulated, it\u2019s difficult to know where to begin. Let this article serve as an ethical compass for you to use when navigating the treatment world.\nQUESTIONABLE TREATMENT PLACEMENT PRACTICES\nThe point at which your life, or life of someone close to you becomes too unmanageable to handle alone feels unprecedentedly vulnerable and frightening to most families. You want to trust anyone who promises a treatment or, in some cases, even a miracle cure. Because you want so desperately to believe what these self-proclaimed \u201cprofessionals\u201d say, your judgment can understandably become impaired.\nA SURGE OF NEW PROFESSIONS\nIt is crucial everyone be aware of the many questionable treatment placement practices that currently exist in the U.S. The 2008 Parity Act and Obamacare made treatment for mental health and substance use more accessible for millions of people.\nConsultants, patient brokers, marketers, treatment placement specialists, and other creative professions surged, often, without formal training for those espousing these titles. While these workers are called different names, they serve the same function: to put \u201cheads in beds.\u201d They are people who, through one method or another, receive kickbacks for getting a patient into a particular facility. These so-called professionals make their money directly by placing someone into a specific treatment program who pays them a \u201cbounty,\u201d a \u201cmarketing fee,\u201d or \u201creward\u201d for \u201cplacing\u201d the person with them. \u201cPatient Brokers,\u201d in effect, broker lives for cash.\nINTERVENTIONISTS AND TREATMENT PROFESSIONALS\nMy intent is not to discredit the challenging and indispensable work of interventionists (or anyone else working in the field). After all, I am one. I married one. However, it is crucial to know there are individuals without any formal behavioral health education, certification, license or clinical training who claim to be \u201cinterventionists\u201d or \u201caddiction specialists\u201d that \u201cwork\u201d in the addiction field. This is dangerous. Just because a person has been through recovery and/or has watched every season of Intervention on A&E, it does not follow they are qualified to be an Interventionist. While unfortunately legal, it is as reckless as watching Grey\u2019s Anatomy, buying an ambulance, and calling oneself an EMT.\nWhen considering employing the services of an interventionist, or ANY TREATMENT \u201cPROFESSIONAL\u201d involved in recommending a treatment program and involved with patient care, questions must be asked to ensure you find yourself in capable, educated, and ethical hands.\nWhat is the professional\u2019s relevant education? What are their certifications? Does any board license them? How long have they been doing what they do? What qualifies them to make recommendations?\nFor example, if an interventionist is not able to identify and specifically describe what they do or the intervention modalities they believe would be most effective and why, do not hire them. If a person who is recommending a treatment center can\u2019t give clear criteria as to why they are recommending a particular center, find out more. Ask if anyone receives any kind of financial compensation or incentives for referrals and/or placement.\nJust because someone calls themselves a \u201cprofessional addiction whatever,\u201d does not mean their decisions are not financially incentivized. \u201cKickbacks\u201d have become rampant in the intervention world and can prevent a person from being placed in a program that\u2019s best fit for their needs. Kickbacks can be in the form of money, gifts, or anything that would encourage someone to recommend one program over another in exchange for compensation.\nA PARALLEL SITUATION\nYour doctor tells you he has discovered a potentially life-threatening tumor in your brain and surgery is required. You panic. You don\u2019t know anything about neurology, let alone a good neurologist or neurosurgeon with experience in tumor removal. You want the best option available, so you ask your doctor to recommend the best neurosurgeon in town.\nHe or she knows of two neurosurgeons who specialize in the type of procedure that could save your life. One does a decent job, but has recently settled a malpractice suit. Due to the lawsuit, this surgeon\u2019s referrals have decreased and he\u2019s mentioned he would be willing to give your doctor a \u2018cut of the profits\u2019 for any surgery sent his way. The other neurosurgeon is highly respected \u2014 one of the best in the field. Her schedule is often full and services are in high demand, but your doctor has a good relationship with her and knows he can ask her to find time to perform the procedure.\nYour doctor writes down the name and office number of the first neurosurgeon and tells you, with a reassuring smile, he\u2019s the better option. You walk out of his office unaware your wellbeing was just compromised for financial gain. This scenario seems almost too ridiculous to take seriously, but why is that? First, this is a violation of Stark Law (starklaw.org). Second, it\u2019s difficult to fathom a medical professional would compromise the quality of a life-saving decision because of money. Why is mental health and substance abuse any different if we are, in fact, treating a disease?\nThis happens to families every day. Most states do not have equivalent laws for non-professionals working in the behavioral health field, and those that do rarely enforce them.\nWHO IS PAYING THE ADDICTION TREATMENT PROFESSIONAL?\nIf someone offers their services at no charge, more often than not, this is a red flag. If someone isn\u2019t asking you to compensate them for their services, this often means someone else is. They are fully employed, contracted, or financially incentivized by a specific facility, and they have a professional and monetary obligation or \u201cmotivation\u201d to recommend clients to a specific program(s).\nAn independent professional depends upon being fairly compensated or will not mind telling you how they are compensated if it is other than by patients. A best practice would be to use independent professionals are compensated directly by the families they serve. Again, I implore you to do your homework. These questions may seem blunt, but a professional worth hiring will not get defensive, will answer directly, and will appreciate your asking.\nAddiction treatment has its own vocabulary, often difficult to decode and understand. There are so many acronyms it often sounds like you\u2019re listening to a two-way radio in a police car: IOP, residential treatment, PHP, sober living, OP, extended care, transitional living, day treatment, peer driven care, half way house, gender specific, dual diagnosis, SA, NA, ACOA, trauma informed care, and the list goes on.\nEven if you are in a best-case scenario and are sitting across from an ethical professional who is giving you excellent treatment options, it can still feel impossible to make a decision when you don\u2019t understand the language. Furthermore, how can you accurately assess the quality of services when you have no frame of reference for what the baseline should be? The following is an overview of levels of treatment care. You can determine how they are differentiated in greater detail by researching the American Society of Addiction Medicine (www.asam.org) and identify the differences and approaches in each level of care.\nMEDICALLY-MANAGED INTENSIVE INPATIENT SERVICES:\nThis most frequently takes place in the \u201cpsych ward\u201d within a hospital setting. If a person has had a suicide attempt, is found to be of harm to themselves or others and placed on a mandatory hold, or has experienced a psychotic break, this is where they will be admitted, stabilized and then transported to another facility.\nMEDICALLY-MONITORED INTENSIVE INPATIENT SERVICES\nTakes place in a residential treatment setting, provides 24 hour care monitored by nurses, physicians, and credentialed clinicians. In layman\u2019s terms, this is what allows some residential programs to be able to provide a safe medical detox program on the same campus where they provide a residential program. Once a person has been medically cleared and clinically stabilized, they are phased down to the next level of care.\nCLINICALLY-MANAGED, HIGH INTENSITY RESIDENTIAL SERVICES\nA 24 hour, structured environment. Again, changing levels of care does not always mean changing a physical location. It is entirely possible to have three levels of care provided within the same campus. The distinctive element to this level of care is that it is non-medical and clinically managed. The programming provided is focused on maintaining abstinence from substances, delivering intensive therapy, and developing the skills necessary to accept responsibility and promote positive character change.\nCLINICALLY-MANAGED, MEDIUM-INTENSITY RESIDENTIAL SERVICES\nThis is also known as extended care and is used to bridge the gap from an intensive therapy schedule in a residential setting to an intensive outpatient program (IOP). It maintains a level of care, but with a lesser amount of therapeutic programming.\nIf someone is enrolled in a Partial Hospitalization (PHP), they require daily monitoring. A person can participate in a PHP while also living in an extended care facility or sober living home. Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP)\nIntensive outpatient programs (IOP) requires nine or more hours of structured counseling and education services per week. Psychiatric and medical services can be scheduled in addition to programming but are used as needed. This level of care can be utilized at the same time a person is living in a sober living environment. It is best practice for this level of care to follow residential treatment.\nTo be designated Outpatient Treatment Services, clinical interaction falls to a level of fewer than nine contact hours per week.\nLOW-INTENSITY RESIDENTIAL SERVICES\nLow-Intensity Residential Services are better known as Sober Living Environments and were formally known as Halfway Houses. Clinical programming drops down to around five hours of professional addiction services per week. The main focus is reintegration back into work and society while maintaining a structured living environment. \u201cThere are many levels of care available to individuals in need, and they all offer different services. While there are many treatment programs \u2014 not all hold themselves to the same ethical standards.\u201d\nAs you can see, there are many levels of care available to individuals in need of treatment, and they all offer different services. While there are many treatment programs\u2026. not all treatment programs hold themselves to the same ethical standards, nor do they offer the same clinical regime or enforcement of standards, and regulations of marketing strategies are lax at best.\nBASIC QUESTIONS TO PROVIDERS\nAn example: What is the treatment setting? Describe your physical plant or campus. Is everything in one place in a \u201ccampus\u201d setting 24/7? If they are housing patients in one place and transporting them to a different location or \u201ccenter,\u201d the facility is likely getting combining IOP, or other levels of care, with an off-site sober living facility and marketing it as \u201cresidential treatment.\u201d While many people get help this way, it is often not what a person expected when they agreed to seek treatment.\nWhile this is not a complete list of questions to ask a treatment provider, it\u2019s a start:\nHow is your program licensed? (Residential, IOP/ PHP or ?)\nWhat do you do for detox if needed?\nWhere are your services provided?\nWhat is a typical day in your program?\nWhat is your relapse policy?\nWhat is your maximum patient capacity?\nHow do you work with co-occurring issues?\nHow many on your treatment team have Masters Level or above educations?\nAre there medical personnel on-site 24/7?\nWhat is your cash pay cost?\nIf a client leaves treatment early, is there a refund for unused amount\nWhat age group/gender do you serve?\nHow many one-on-one sessions does a client have with Master\u2019s Level or above clinician per week?\nIs the client expected to prepare their own meals (sober living level) while in treatment?\nHow often do you drug test?\nAre phones and computers allowed?\nIs there a family program? If so, please explain.\nDo you have an MFT on staff (Marriage and Family Therapist)\nIs there an aftercare program?\nHow does the treatment provider measure \u201csuccess\u201d?\nInsurance>While treatment centers all have a cash price, some accept in-network insurance benefits while others either file out-of-network benefits on your behalf or provide you with a super bill (an itemized list of services provided and cost) at the end of your stay. Once a super bill is provided, the patient or policyholder can file for out-of-network reimbursement on their own behalf.\nEach treatment center accepting in-network insurance has a usual and customary rate that determines part of your reimbursement. Usual and customary rates vary based on geographic region and are based on what providers in the area usually charge for the same or similar services. For example, if a treatment center offers in-network coverage and has a daily usual and customary rate of $375.00 \u2013 your reimbursement is calculated base on this rate. If your plan reimburses 80%, it will reimburse 80% of $375.00 per day. Out-of-network providers are not bound to usual and customary rates as defined by geographic region and can set their fee for services at whatever rate they like \u2013 although most (not all) stay close to the usual and customary rate for that reason. Let\u2019s say you are using an out-of-network treatment center and they have set the daily rate at $500.00 and your plan reimburses 20%. Your plan will reimburse for 20% of $500.00.\nWhether you are using in-network or out-of-network insurance, the patient or policyholder is responsible for the amount owed that is not covered by your insurance.\nIn-network insurance can greatly reduce the cost of treatment. Most insurance policies require that a policyholder meet a deductible before the insurance benefits will take effect. Once the deductible is met and pre-authorization (if part of your plan) is obtained by the treatment center, in-network insurance can be used to cover up to 80% (in most cases) of the usual and customary rate. Once the deductible and out-of-pocket minimum is met, insurance can cover up to 100% of services at the usual and customary rate.\nOut-of-network insurance works in a similar way to in-network, although out-of-network providers can choose to not file on your behalf and simply provide you with a super bill that you can use to file at the end of treatment. Pre-authorization for services is still required for most plans and cannot be obtained until a person has entered a treatment program. Out-of-network insurance usually reimburses at a much lower rate than in-network insurance and often has higher deductibles and out-of-pocket minimums.\nAddiction and recovery impacts the life of an addict and everyone that is around them. Sadly, it can become Caveat Emptor, or \u201cLet the Buyer Beware,\u201d when it comes to navigating the world of addiction treatment.\nFind a qualified professional to help you. People do get better from addiction; the right treatment and treatment provider can make all the difference in the world. Do your homework, and ask the right questions. It can truly be a matter of life and death.\nCarey Davidson is a Board Registered Intervention Specialist and Certified Intervention Professional.

        "raw_content": "Oldenburg Film Festival Unveils First Titles\n12:23 PM PDT 8/15/2017 by Scott Roxborough\nCourtesy of Oldenburg Film Festival\n'A Violent Man'\nThe 2017 edition will include world premieres of 'A Violent Man,' 'Touched' and 'Bernard & Huey.'\nGermany's Oldenburg Film Festival on Tuesday announced the first batch of titles for this year's event, including a handful of world premieres. Among them are A Violent Man, a mixed martial arts-set drama from director Matthew Berkowitz and starring running back turned actor Thomas Q. Jones (Straight Outta Compton) and legendary UFC fighter Chuck Liddell.\nTouched, the feature debut of acclaimed shorts director Karl R. Hearne (Song), will also have its world premiere at Oldenburg, as will Bernard & Huey, a dark comedy from Dan Mirvish featuring Saturday Night Live's David Koechner and actor-screenwriter Jim Rash; and Crowhurst, a biopic from Simon Rumley on the life of Donald Crowhurst, the British businessman and amateur sailor who died while competing in a single-handed, around-the-world yacht race. Rumley's last feature, Fashionista, a thriller starring Amanda Fuller, will also screen at the fest, celebrating its German premiere.\nAnother true-life tale set to premiere at Oldenburg is Santiago Rizzo's Quest. The film takes its inspiration from the director's own life, namely Rizzo's teacher and mentor Tim Moellering, who saved him from a life of crime. Gregory Kasyan stars as the boy, with Dash Mihok playing the teacher.\nOn the other side of the spectrum is Junk Head from Takahide Hori. The Japanese director wrote, directed, shot and edited the feature-length stop-motion sci-fi film, as well as built all the sets and voiced the entire film. Junk Head will have its European premiere at Oldenburg.\nThe remaining lineup will be unveiled in the coming weeks. The 2017 Oldenburg Film Festival is set to run Sept. 13-17.",

        "raw_content": "Growing up is quite the adventure, but with a hearing problem, it\u2019s an adventure that\u2019s hard to navigate no matter how courageous the spirit.\nEven though it\u2019s essential to social, emotional, and cognitive development, hearing is often a sense that\u2019s overlooked medically. Early identification and treatment of hearing loss in children can lessen the negative impacts it will have on a child\u2019s development, giving them the opportunity to live up to their full potential socially and academically.\nHearing loss can be measured in degrees, ranging from mild to moderately severe to profound deafness. Hearing loss in children typically falls into three main categories.\nThe most common, conductive hearing loss, is associated with conditions in the external or middle ear that block the transmission of sound. These conditions can include ear infection, fluid in the ear, impacted earwax, a perforated eardrum, a foreign object in the canal, or birth defects that alter the canal. Many of these are treatable through minor procedures or surgery.\nSensorineural loss, also known as \u201cnerve deafness,\u201d is the second type. This occurs when damage to the inner ear, or to nerve pathways from the inner ear, interfere with the brain\u2019s ability to process sound. Most often, if a child is born with sensorineural hearing loss, it is congenital, meaning it was present at birth. It can also be caused by the use of ototoxic drugs (drugs that damage hearing) during pregnancy, a low birth weight, or treatments for a number of other medical conditions. Although there is no cure for this type of hearing loss, in most cases hearing aids and a family-centered care plan are effective treatments.\nMixed hearing loss is a combination of conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, and it may include damage to the outer or middle ear as well as the inner ear or auditory nerve. Treatment options are based primarily on how much of the hearing loss is correctable through surgery, drugs, or other methods. The remaining hearing loss is usually treatable with hearing aids.\nSymptoms of Pediatric Hearing Loss\nHearing loss can be difficult enough for adults to detect, let alone children, who aren\u2019t always able to articulate the source of their difficulties in life. There are a number of signs to look for if you\u2019re concerned that your child may be suffering from a hearing loss.\nIn Newborns/Infants\nYour child\u2019s communication skills begin developing as soon as they are born. A delay in the advancement of these skills is a red flag that something is not right developmentally. Look for these signs of hearing loss:\nAs with newborns and infants, a child\u2019s difficulty with communication skills may be a sign of hearing impairment. As your child begins day care and/or preschool, any trouble they may have listening or communicating will become more prominent. Look for these signs of hearing loss:\nTeens today have quite a bit on their plates, and they typically aren\u2019t educated about the possibility of loud noises permanently damaging their hearing. It is essential to protect their healthy ears, as hearing plays a critical role in their academic success, social standing, and future economic achievements. This age group is at a greater risk for high-frequency hearing loss because of lifestyle choices. Seeing their favorite artists in concert, playing music too loudly through headphones, attending loud sporting events, or hunting can all damage your child\u2019s hearing irreparably if they\u2019re not using proper hearing protection.\nIf you believe your child is showing signs of hearing loss, please contact us today. As a certified location for infant hearing evaluations, we can properly determine your child\u2019s hearing ability, regardless of age, and determine if there is a hearing loss. As a family-centered practice, we encourage your entire family, as well as your pediatrician, to be involved in all aspects of this process.\nHow early can a child be diagnosed with hearing loss?\nMost children receive their first hearing screening shortly after birth. All states have implemented newborn hearing screenings into hospitals and birthing clinics, and most screenings happen before the parent and child are discharged. If the child does not pass the test twice, they are referred to an audiologist for further testing.\nWhat types of hearing loss are found in children?\nWhile the types of hearing loss in children are the same as in adults (conductive, sensorineural, and mixed), there are differences in what they are more susceptible to. For example, teens are at a greater risk for high-frequency hearing loss because of their lifestyle choices (loud concerts, music volume), while younger children may experience conductive hearing loss caused by otitis media or an ear infection. This is usually because the eustachian tube \u2014 the passage between the middle ear and the back of the throat \u2014 isn\u2019t able to drain because of its shorter passage and horizontal setting.\nWhat should I do if I think my child has a hearing loss?\nThe sooner the issue is addressed, the better the chances of successful treatment. If you believe your child has a hearing loss, please contact us for an appointment. Our practice provides family-centered treatment that focuses on thorough hearing testing, diagnosis, and follow-up appointments if necessary.\nHow often should children have their hearing tested?\nYour baby should have a basic newborn hearing screening performed before being discharged from the hospital. If your infant has not had this yet, it is important to have your child\u2019s hearing evaluated, preferably within the first three weeks of life. Kids who seem to have normal hearing should continue to have their hearing evaluated at regular checkups. Typically, hearing tests are scheduled at ages 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, and 18.\nWhat are some signs that my child has hearing loss?\nChildren who seem inattentive may be experiencing hearing loss. Other signs:\n\u2022 Infants and newborns may not startle at sounds or respond to whispers\n\u2022 Speech may be delayed or unclear\n\u2022 Turning up the television volume too high\n\u2022 Asking \u201cwhat?\u201d often\nHow are earbud headphones harming my child\u2019s (or my) hearing?\nEarbuds allow us to listen to music anywhere, anytime, and for long periods of time. This is the perfect storm for hearing loss, as the decibel level (the sound pressure) and the length of listening time affect how much damage is done. Loud music destroys the fine hairs that stimulate auditory nerve fibers, which send signals to the brain to interpret sound. Sound becomes damaging at 85 decibels (the sound level of a bulldozer idling). Listen to your MP3 player at about 70% to avoid damage. Or try the 60/60 rule: Listen to your device at 60% volume for 60 minutes at a time.",

        "title": "Republicans Have A Way Out Of Their Health Care Mess: Working With Democrats | HuffPost",
        "raw_content": "Republicans Have A Way Out Of Their Health Care Mess: Working With Democrats\nThe case for bipartisan action just got stronger.\nEfforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act have collapsed again, although it\u2019s difficult to tell whether Senate Republicans will keep trying to find some way of passing legislation or whether they will simply do nothing and move on \u2015 a strategy that President Donald Trump has already said he endorses because he remains convinced that Obamacare will collapse on its own.\nBut there\u2019s another way to proceed. Republicans could work with Democrats on a narrow, bipartisan bill that would fix the Affordable Care Act\u2019s very real problems while leaving the bulk of the policy edifice in place.\nUntil recently, the idea has mostly been the subject of whispers \u2015 and wistful ones at that. But perhaps the most intriguing news Tuesday was an announcement from Lamar Alexander, the GOP senator from Tennessee and chairman of the health, education, labor and pensions committee. He said he intends to hold hearings on the Affordable Care Act\u2019s insurance markets \u2015 assuming that the Senate rejects the GOP \u201crepeal-and-delay\u201d bill when it comes up for a vote early next week.\nIt\u2019s a signal that Alexander is open to the idea of passing legislation in the traditional way, with a slow, deliberative process \u2015 and with real opportunities to find common ground with the other party. His Democratic counterpart, Patty Murray of Washington, quickly issued a statement reaffirming her party\u2019s interest in such talks.\nOf course, as a substantive proposition, bipartisanship has always had a compelling logic. The problem has been the politics for Republicans, particularly the fear that giving up on the repeal agenda and finding common ground with Democrats would be tantamount to admitting failure.\nIt\u2019s a legitimate concern. But sometimes admitting failure isn\u2019t the worst option on the table. For Republicans, who are now staring failure squarely in the face, this would seem to be one of those times.\nBipartisanship Would Mean Giving Up On Repeal\nTo be clear, Democrats won\u2019t even think about bipartisan legislation unless Republicans start off by dropping huge swaths of their agenda.\nMedicaid changes would have to be off the table entirely. Cuts to subsidies that help people buy private insurance would also be out of the question. The taxes that the Affordable Care Act imposed on the wealthiest Americans, in order to finance its coverage expansion, those would not be part of the negotiations either.\nThat would leave just one major area to discuss. It\u2019d be the reforms of the private insurance market for people buying coverage on their own \u2015 that is, the new regulations on who and what private policies must cover, and the operation of exchanges through which people can buy policies and get those subsidies.\nThese provisions are the parts of the Affordable Care Act that have caused the most anguish and controversy, mainly because insurers, no longer able to sell skimpy policies or to deny coverage because of pre-existing conditions, raised premiums.\nThose changes have been a boon for millions, particularly those with pre-existing conditions, who can get comprehensive policies that insurers once refused to sell them, and those with relatively low incomes, who can now buy insurance that used to be beyond their means. But millions who don\u2019t fall into those groups are paying more for coverage that\u2019s worse (or at least feels worse), and some are simply not buying insurance at all, choosing instead to pay the individual mandate penalty.\nThis has made it difficult for insurers to cover their costs, causing some to pull out of markets altogether, which has left some parts of the country, particularly rural areas, with limited choices of high-priced policies.\nAddressing these problems would not be particularly difficult. The essential ingredient is more money to subsidize directly or indirectly the people with the highest medical bills \u2015 the ones that, previously, insurers were able to avoid covering. The money could take the form of new tax breaks to help people pay their premiums and deductibles, or it could be some form of \u201creinsurance,\u201d which is basically a subsidy to help insurance companies cover the costs of their most expensive customers.\nDemocrats and Republicans each have their preferred policy choices. But they are not incompatible, and it\u2019s easy to imagine the parties coalescing around a small subset of both.\nThe Senate bill that GOP leaders just abandoned included $182 billion for shoring up state insurance markets, including $50 billion dedicated to a reinsurance program. When Hillary Clinton ran for president, her agenda included $250 billion in new tax breaks to help consumers pay premiums or out-of-pocket costs.\nSomewhere in there is a compromise. It might not be enough to fix all of the Affordable Care Act\u2019s problems, but it could still mitigate them significantly.\nIf talks went well and the parties were feeling ambitious, they could even try discussing some bigger ideas, like allowing states to experiment with different regulations or alternatives to the mandate, perhaps in exchange for opening up Medicaid or Medicare to more people.\nEvery Option For Republicans Has A Political Downside Now\nRepublicans fear that conceding on full repeal, after so many years of promising it, would have some major political repercussions: incurring the wrath of some high-profile, well-funded conservative groups and depressing turnout in the 2018 midterm elections.\nThose Republicans are probably right. But the alternatives carry some serious political risks, ones that the party\u2019s officials and strategists may not fully appreciate.\nTrump seems to think that voters won\u2019t hold him responsible for problems in the new markets, whether it\u2019s the ones he inherited because of the Affordable Care Act\u2019s shortcomings or the ones he has created by neglecting or even sabotaging the law. \u201cI\u2019m not going to own it,\u201d Trump said Tuesday.\nIn reality, an unhappy electorate almost always blames the party in power, and that means, more often than not, blaming the president. Current polling suggests the same thing would happen now. By a nearly two-to-one margin, respondents to a Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation survey this spring said they would hold Trump and Republicans, not former President Barack Obama and Democrats, responsible for what happens to their health care.\nMeanwhile, polls also show the public strongly supports bipartisan action \u2015 and if Trump were to sign a bill, flanked by Democratic and Republican lawmakers, he\u2019d get the kind of signing ceremony he so obviously craves. He\u2019d even look like he was governing.\nAlternatively, Republicans could still try to pass repeal legislation, whether it\u2019s some version of the bill Senate leadership first proposed in late June or a \u201crepeal-and-delay\u201d proposal like the 2015 bill both chambers passed (and that Obama vetoed). The problem with either proposal is that, although some people would be better off, millions would end up without insurance while millions more would face higher out-of-pocket costs or premiums.\nRepublicans who have spent the last seven years soaking up right-wing propaganda, with its emphasis on everything that has gone wrong with Obamacare and virtually no attention to what has gone right, may still not fully realize how devastating those losses will be, although, from the looks of things, a handful of senators from states including Nevada, Ohio and West Virginia, where the coverage expansion has done wonders, understand just how much is at stake.\nNot surprisingly, it\u2019s some of these senators who offered the most vocal criticism of GOP repeal efforts and on Tuesday were the ones to reject a last-minute effort to pass \u201crepeal and delay.\u201d They have also been among the GOP senators expressing the most interest in starting up talks with Democrats.\nDemocrats Would Probably Be Willing To Negotiate\nAnd the interest is clearly mutual. Allowing a devastating repeal bill to pass could very easily help Democrats in the midterm elections, and beyond, by energizing core Democratic voters and making it clear to the rest of the country, including a whole bunch of Trump voters, that GOP promises to bolster the safety net are flat-out false. Successful bipartisan legislation, on the other hand, would prove Republicans are capable of governing after all.\nBut expanding access to health care is so fundamental to Democratic Party identity that many members \u2015 on both its left flank and in the middle \u2015 would give away those political advantages if it meant shoring up insurance markets where they are floundering, so that fewer people were struggling with premiums and out-of-pocket costs.\nIf bipartisan legislation passed, each party could still pursue its broader agenda on health care. Republicans could keep trying to cut taxes and to contain or shrink federal programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Democrats could keep promoting a larger government role in health care, whether through the gradual expansion of existing public programs, new efforts to drive down the price of medical care or a wholesale switch to a single-payer program.\nBut, for now, both sides could pocket a win and, more important, fewer people would have to go to sleep worrying about medical bills. The opportunity is there \u2015 if only GOP leaders would be willing to take it.\nObamacare Health Care Reform Mitch Mc Connell Affordable Care Act Obamacare Repeal",

Bierstedt\nResearchers from HZDR, DESY, SLAC and the Fritz-Haber-Institute demonstrate the opportunities of arrival time and intensity binning at unprecedented repetition rates at the quasi-cw SRF linac driven THz facility TELBE.\nMany technological processes for example in information technology occur on very short timescales of the order of one picosecond or less. Scientists use the term ultra-fast when referring to techniques that allow monitoring dynamics on these timescales by means of stroboscopic movies based on pump-probe techniques. Researchers from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) in Dresden, together with colleagues from Hamburg, Berlin and California now demonstrate how this type of movies can be taken with an exceptional dynamic range at superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) accelerator-based light sources. The technique is based on the precise pulse-resolved measurement and correction of the arrival time and intensity fluctuations of the accelerator-based photon pulses at repetition rates of presently up to 100 kHz quasi-cw.\nThe technological advance makes it meanwhile possible to film important processes in the materials and life sciences in order to understand their underlying principles. The relevant timescales are often in the femtosecond regime and the actual making of a high-speed movie still poses a challenge. As a comparison: it takes a light pulse only 1 second to travel the 380 000 kilometers from earth to moon, while within 1 femtosecond light merely travels the distance equivalent to the diameter of human hair.\nTo make these high-speed movies, researchers use lasers and increasingly also accelerator-based light sources such as free-electron lasers in order to generate the required ultra-short light pulses. One of these facilities is the new THz facility \u201cTELBE\u201d at the quasi-cw SRF accelerator ELBE. TELBE is a prototype light source that allows generating, in this specific case, intense THz light pulses at particularly high duty cycle.\nThe drawback of accelerator-based light sources such as TELBE in Dresden or the X-ray free-electron laser XFEL in Hamburg is that the intensity and arrival time of the light pulses fluctuates. Thereby many of the dreamed of experiments are difficult or impossible to realize. The recent work, published in the open access journal \u201cStructural Dynamics\u201d now demonstrates that these fluctuations and instabilities can be measured and can be corrected for in a way that enables achieving unprecedented data quality.\nThe scheme, developed within the frame of the European project cluster EUCALL, presently enables a time resolution of 30 fs. However, further improvements are within reach, as the researchers describe. The work was performed within a collaboration between HZDR scientists and researchers from the Deutsche Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg, the Fritz-Haber-Institute in Berlin and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park/USA.\nInformation on the EUCALL-project\nThe European Cluster of Advanced Laser Light Sources (EUCALL) is a network between leading large-scale user facilities for free-electron lasers, synchrotron and optical laser radiation and their users. Under EUCALL, they work together on their common methodologies and research opportunities, and develop tools to sustain this interaction in the future. EUCALL has received funding from the European Union\u2019s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme and involves eleven partners from nine countries as well as the networks Laserlab Europe and FELs of Europe during the project period 2015 to 2018.\nS.

Reuters\nManchester has witnessed an 8.8% rise in housing prices as per a report by Zoopla owner Hometrack, making it the strongest housing market in the UK.\nOn the other hand, London has fallen to 10th rank, as its house price inflation plummeted to 5.6% from last year's 12.8%. This is the City's lowest annual growth since 2013. The shift in ranking indicates that high value cities have lost steam due to affordability concerns, compounded with weak investor demand and uncertainties surrounding Brexit.\nThe report added that previous year's double digit housing price growth rates in London, Cambridge, and Bristol have now been reduced to single digit levels.\nIn the world's most expensive cities survey compiled by the Economist Intelligence Unit, Brexit uncertainties and a weakening pound had already taken an effect on London. The city slipped 18 places to the 24th spot in the survey, which is its lowest spot in two decades.\nHowever, Manchester's strong performance in the housing market is not necessarily indicative of a possible improvement in the northern city's economic performance. The EIU report noted that Manchester tumbled by 25 places to land at the 51st spot. This was the greatest decline reported by any city included in the survey.\nThe Hometrack report also stated that housing turnover has either been stagnant or declining in the highest value and least affordable cities of London, Bristol, Oxford, and Cambridge over the past year.\nIn the wake of a possible second Scottish independence referendum, Glasgow's housing prices rose to 7.2%, while Edinburgh trails London at 5.5%.\nMoreover, the impact of falling oil prices has severely affected resource-rich city Aberdeen, which has reported an increasing negative rate as compared to 2016.\nTussle for talent: Is your business Brexit-ready?\nMore high street jobs at risk as Jones the Bootmaker bailout deal breaks down",

Unlike most Israeli pilots, she did not serve in the Israeli Air Force, where most pilots log their flight hours and get their licenses.\n\u201cBeing a pilot has always been a dream of mine. My husband is very supportive, and he is helping realize this dream,\u201d she said in 2015 when she started her flight training.\nNovak lives in a haredi neighborhood of Jerusalem and is reluctant to grant interviews.\nPrevious PostMontana congressman sentenced to community service Next PostToo old to crawl like a rat into a dark hole",

        "raw_content": "Lighting up our sentinels\nCopyright: Christina Rode (2016)\nTraditionally, gynaecological cancers (those found in a woman\u2019s reproductive system) are diagnosed using an invasive and potentially dangerous technique that often leads to additional health concerns for the patient \u2013 as if coping with the cancer itself wasn\u2019t enough. Fortunately, scientists working in Professor Ahmed Ahmed\u2019s lab at the WIMM have recently developed an alternative method to diagnose these cancers, which could revolutionise how doctors treat women suffering from this disease. Eva Masmanian explains more.\nThe substance transported by the lymphatic system is called lymph, which comes from the fluid that bathes and nourishes the tissues of the body. Lymph is formed when this fluid collects in the lymphatic vessels, as seen in this image (left)\nInfectious agents like bacteria and viruses collect in lymph, and so the lymphatic system is continually monitored by small organs called lymph nodes (seen as swellings in the picture). White blood cells concentrate at these lymph nodes and help to fight and remove these infectious agents.\nHowever, lymph can also carry more sinister cargo. In patients with aggressive forms of cancer, lymph can carry cancer cells that have left the site of the original tumour, and have gone on to initiate another tumour somewhere else in the body. Cancer cells can thus also be found in lymph nodes \u2013 a fact exploited by doctors when trying to diagnose cancers.\nThe \u2018staging\u2019 of a cancer is an assessment of how much a cancer has spread. The most reliable practice for staging a gynaecological cancer (cancer in a woman\u2019s reproductive system) is to surgically remove at least ten of a patient\u2019s lymph nodes to check for the presence of cancer cells. This is called a systematic lymphadenectomy.\nA systemic lymphadenectomy is a very invasive procedure that can lead to many complications, including widespread build-ups of lymph that cause swellings and discomfort (lymphoedema). However, a new technique called sentinel lymph node mapping has been recently developed to try and overcome these issues, whilst still maintaining a high cancer detection rate.\nAs cells belonging to a cancer in a specific location will spread in a characteristic pattern due to the layout of the lymphatic vessels, we can identify the first lymph node that would contain any metastatic cancer cells \u2013 this is termed the sentinel lymph node (SLN). We can therefore see if a cancer has spread by identifying its specific SLN, and selectively removing this lymph node to test for the presence of cancer cells, hence minimising side effects.\nIdentification of SLNs involves the use of imaging techniques, which conventionally involve the use of a radioactive substance \u2013 but as you can imagine, even low levels of radiation may potentially have adverse side-effects, and therefore this technique is less than ideal.\nSo what alternative methods could be used to identify SLNs? A team of researchers from the Ahmed Ahmed lab at the WIMM has recently published a study in BMC Research Notes to assess the use of a fluorescent imaging system in SLN mapping.\nThis technique involves the injection of one or more fluorescent dyes into the region of the tumour, so that the path of the dye follows the lymphatic drainage of the tumour. The dye is injected before surgery, and a specialised camera is used by the surgeon to detect fluorescence in real time as it drains from the tumour site into the lymphatic system. The fluorescent dye will drain to the lymph node closest to the tumour, and will \u2018light up\u2019 the SLN to be removed.\nThe team led by Ahmed Ahmed have shown that a custom-made near infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging system can be used to detect SLNs at a rate that exceeds conventional methods based on blue dye and/or radioactive tracer, without any compromises to safety. Once the procedure was optimised, a 100% SLN detection rate was achieved and no false negatives were detected.\nThe results of this study hold great promise for the use of fluorescence in SLN detection for gynaecological cancer, eliminating the need for invasive and dangerous surgery. These findings are the first steps towards providing a safer, effective method of diagnosing and treating gynaecological cancer, offering hope to the thousands of women who suffer from this devastating disease.\nPost edited by Bryony Graham and Ahmed Ahmed.",

Seven Indian American men, who were arrested May 28 on charges of inappropriately touching girls as young as 14, have since been released. The Placer County District Attorney\u2019s office said it has insufficient evidence to charge the men; an investigation is ongoing. (Golfland Sunsplash photo)\nSeven Indian Americans Charged With Inappropriately Touching Young Girls at Water Park Released; DA Cites Insufficient Evidence\nSeven Indian American men who were arrested on Memorial Day at the Golfland Sunsplash Water Park in Roseville, Calif., were released May 30, after spending two nights in jail, as the Placer County District Attorney\u2019s office said it had insufficient evidence to charge them.\nAn investigation into the incident is ongoing. The seven men are due back in court June 27. Five will need a Punjabi interpreter.\nThe suspects are: Gursharanpal Banga, 34; Manpreet Dhillon, 26; Lakhveer Gill, 30; Baljinder Khaira, 38; Balwinder Malhi, 32; Dharampal Singh, 21; and Harpreet Talwar, 18. All were arrested May 28; bail was set at $300,000. The Roseville Police Department released a news alert May 29, which stated that the men were arrested on felony charges of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years of age, and conspiracy to commit a crime.\n\u201cIt appears that the individuals who were arrested knew each other and worked in a coordinated effort to inappropriately touch several female juveniles,\u201d noted the RPD in the news alert.\nBut the men were released after 48 hours, as prosecutors did not file charges, lacking sufficient evidence. Placer County Assistant District Attorney Jeff Wilson told The Sacramento Bee in an e-mail: \u201cIf an investigation is lacking critical information that we need to charge the case we cannot file the case. We must believe that an individual is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and that we can prove the case to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. That is our ethical obligation under the law.\u201d\nThe arrests occurred after the alleged victims informed Sunsplash security guards that they had been inappropriately touched (see earlier India-West story here). Security guards called police.\nSteve Rodgers, general manager with Golfland Sunsplash, said at a press briefing: \u201cThese guys were, I think they were, acting up because they were getting saved in all the pools. I don\u2019t know if they could swim. They acted like they couldn\u2019t swim.\u201d\nIndian American criminal defense attorney Kulvinder Singh, who is running for Placer County Superior Court judge \u2014 see story here \u2014 told India-West there could have been a cultural misunderstanding between Sunsplash security guards and the suspects.\n\u201cPerhaps due to their lack of ability to communicate with the guests, the Sunsplash staff became confused when some of them didn't swim well and needed help,\u201d said Singh.\nThe Roseville attorney said that the men still face the possibility of being charged. \u201cI have represented a defendant when there were other co-defendants, and this situation is high pressure. Someone may take a plea and say something against someone else, just to stay out of jail,\u201d he said, noting that all the suspects should immediately hire a criminal defense attorney, to avoid the possibility of accepting a plea for a crime they did not commit.\nIf no charges are filed by prosecutors, Singh said the men could file a lawsuit for wrongful arrest. He noted that it is proper for the DA to request the police or other law enforcement to go back and get reports, video, statements, and other evidence before filing felony charges.\nGolfland Sunsplash Water Park\nMen Touch Girls At Water Park\nPlacer County District Attorney\n\u2018Gully Boy\u2019 Review: Dreams Unlimited, Passion Unlimited, Determination Unlimited!\nActor Jim Sarbh to Make His TV Debut with Discovery\u2019s New Series \u2018Planet Healers\u2019\nAnanya Panday Wraps up First Schedule for \u2018Pati Patni Aur Woh\u2019\nDanny Pudi Tapped for Role in Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day\u2019s Apple Comedy Series",

It was a pioneering album where lyrical clarity was obscured and complicated by the stealth musical textures surrounding it.\nLike Slint\u2019s Spiderland, or Codeine\u2019s The White Birch, even Talk Talk\u2019s Laughing Stock, American Football asked far more questions than it cared to answer. But there wasn\u2019t a band around anymore to explain it, anyway. The three young men who made the album \u2013 Mike Kinsella, Steve Holmes, and Steve Lamos \u2013 split up pretty much on its release.\nFifteen years later, American Football reunited (now as a four-piece, with the addition of Nate Kinsella). They played far larger shows than in their original incarnation and recorded their long-anticipated second album, 2016\u2019s American Football (LP2). The release was widely praised, but the band members still felt like their best work was yet to come.\n\u2018I feel like the second album was us figuring it out,\u2019 says Nate. \u2018For me, it wasn\u2019t quite done. I knew there was still more.\u2019\nEnter American Football (LP3). \u2018We put a lot of time and a lot of energy into it,\u2019 says Mike. \u2018We were all thoughtful about what we wanted to put out there. Last time, it was figuring out how to use all of our different arms. This time, we were like \u2013 Ok we have these arms, let\u2019s use them.\u2019 The band used the same producer, Jason Cupp, and recorded the album at the same studio (Arc Studios in Omaha, Nebraska) as its predecessor \u2013 yet they approached it in a markedly different way. There was a determination to let the songs breathe, to trust in ideas finding their own pace. The final result is a definite, and deliberate, stretching of the band.\nAs a result, LP3 is less obviously tethered to the band\u2019s past than the second album. An immediate contrast between LP3 and its two predecessors is its cover. The two previous albums featured the exterior and interior of a residence in the band\u2019s original hometown of Urbana, Illinois (now attracting fans for pilgrimages and photo opportunities), by the photographer Chris Strong. But American Football knew that LP3 was an outside record. Instead of the familiar house, this time the cover photo (again by Strong) features open, rolling fields on Urbana\u2019s borders. It is a sign of the album\u2019s magnitude in sound, and of the band\u2019s boldness in breaking away from home comforts.\nAmerican Football also joked that LP3\u2019s genre was \u2018post-house\u2019, because of this very conscious visual break. But, in a strange way, there are links in LP3 with an actual post-house genre: shoegaze. The more exploratory members of the original British shoegaze scene were inspired by the dreamtime and circularity of house music (ambient house in particular), cherishing its sonic possibilities. That spirit drips into LP3, most obviously on \u2018I Can\u2019t Feel You\u2019, a collaboration with Rachel Goswell of Slowdive.\nThe album also features Hayley Williams from Paramore on the album\u2019s catchiest moment, \u2018Uncomfortably Numb\u2019, and Elizabeth Powell, of the Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise act Land Of Talk. Mike wrote lyrics in French especially for her.\nLP3 is contemplative, rich, expressive, yet with a queasy undercurrent. It is heavy with expectancy, revealing its ideas slowly, eliciting the hidden stories people carry around with them. \u2018I feel like my lyric writing has changed a lot over the years,\u2019 says Mike. \u2018The goal is to be conversational, maybe to state something giant and heavy, but in a very plain way. But, definitely in this record, I keep things a little more vague.\u2019 As on the first album, the lyrics on LP3 may seem confessional and concentrated, but the more you scrutinize them, the further their meaning slinks away. Or, as Mike tellingly sings on \u2018I Can\u2019t Feel You\u201d: I\u2019m fluent in subtlety.\n\u2018Somewhere along the way we moved from being a reunion band to just being a band,\u2019 says Steve Holmes. American Football is now a bona fide ongoing focus, and they are making some of the best music of their lives. American Football (LP3) stands with two other rare reunion successes \u2013 Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine\u2019s mbv \u2013 as a fine example of how a band refinding one another can augment, rather than taint, their legacy.\n\u2018I think that there are those albums, or the music that you heard when you were younger, and they imprint on you,\u2019 says Nate. \u2018And no matter where you go, or what you do they\u2019re always there.\u2019 He is talking of Steve Reich \u2013 an early and ongoing influence on American Football \u2013 but he might as well be reflecting what is said of his own band, and the ardent following they inspire. American Football stands as an enduring symbol of elusive emotional landscapes, where introspection can be as dramatic as confrontation.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018War for the Planet of the Apes\u2019 Deserves to Win the VFX Oscar\nThe third time should be the charm for Weta's remarkable Caesar (Andy Serkis) in a field marked by outstanding character animation.\nThe time has come for the Academy to finally give the VFX Oscar to \u201cWar for the Planet of the Apes.\u201d Twice denied for \u201cRise\u201d and \u201cDawn,\u201d Weta Digital\u2019s remarkable work on Caesar (Andy Serkis) culminated with a Shakespearean finale. It\u2019s undeniably the best of the field. And coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the original \u201cPlanet of the Apes\u201d would make it even sweeter. The Visual Effects Society obviously got the importance of the work, honoring the entire Caesar trilogy, now we\u2019ll see if the Academy makes amends with \u201cWar.\u201d\nHowever, \u201cApes\u201d has been denied before (with the acting branch, in particular, having a bias against Serkis and performance capture) and there is other noteworthy character animation to choose from, including the stunning CG Rachael from \u201cBlade Runner 2049,\u201d the creepy Snoke (Serkis) from \u201cStar Wars: The Last Jedi,\u201d Ego and the de-aged Kurt Russell from \u201cGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,\u201d and the latest incarnation of King Kong from \u201cKong: Skull Island.\u201d\nIt\u2019s been a unique experience for Serkis to play the sentient simian from birth to death, and Weta rose to the challenge of capturing and animating his performance. In \u201cWar,\u201d though, Caesar rose to Moses-like stature, grappling with his darkest demons before freeing himself and his tribe. For Weta, the challenge was capturing Caesar\u2019s final arc with on-set performance capture in both snow and rain. On \u201cWar,\u201d they achieved greater interpolation and more nuanced animation.\nCaesar was grayer and walked more slowly, carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Weta also deepened his wrinkles and added more creases. His model and facial rig were adjusted, too, given the complex emotional range. At the same time, they added a new character, Bad Ape (Steve Zahn), nervous and funny, with a lot more dialogue requiring special care to the rigging and his big, bug eyes.\n\u201c\u201dFor me, the key to the whole movie is empathy,\u201d said Matt Reeves (who directed both \u201cDawn\u201d and \u201cWar\u201d). \u201cI saw \u2018Rise\u2019 and for the first time I had an emotional connection with a CG character. This film was pushed into the realm of the mythic. It\u2019s a Darwinian, biblical, ape epic.\u201d\nThe great VFX suprise was a stunning CG recreation of the Rachael replicant played by Sean Young in the original movie. the two-minute sequence brought an emotionally stirring reunion with Harrison Ford\u2019s Deckard, requiring technical virtuosity and subtle performance.\nOscar-winning MPC (\u201cThe Jungle Book\u201d) was tasked with animating the 20-year-old Rachael. However, Villeneuve wanted a three-beat character arc for the new replicant when she encounters Deckard. First, she displays confidence and then longing before feeling rejected when realizing that she doesn\u2019t measure up. The result was a major step in digital human animation.\nFor the first actual appearance of Supreme Leader Snoke, director Rian Johnson worked with Industrial Light & Magic on a complete redesign. He looked too ghoulish and zombie-like as the hologram in \u201cThe Last Jedi.\u201d ILM got data capture of Serkis on set with Daisy Ridley (Rey) and Andy Driver (Kylo Ren).\nHowever, the initial concept looked too frail and didn\u2019t match the power of Serkis\u2019 voice. So they resculpted the model, referencing Michael Fassbender and Steven Berkoff, and Ben Kingsley from \u2018Sexy Beast.\u2019\u201d ILM made Snoke\u2019s shoulders broader, straightened his back, and restructured his face. They also raised him from seven to eight-feet-tall.\nFirst, there was Baby Groot (Framestore made him softer, more alien-like, and quite the athletic dancer), but the other new wrinkle was Ego (Russell), a living planet that takes on human form. Weta Digital was challenged with creating the interior look of Ego, along with the various transformations during his climactic fight with son Peter Quill (Chris Pratt).\nThis involved complicated mathematical patterns known as fractals (inspired by artist Hal Tenny, who served as a consultant). However, not only did Weta have difficulty controlling the fractals, but it also had to make them pliable in short order. To avoid an R rating for gore, Weta came up with particulate sand.\nMeanwhile, Lola VFX handled the young Russell for the prologue, a 36-year journey back in time. Despite claims that it was achieved with special effects makeup, Lola, the masters of digital de-aging (\u201cThe Social Network\u201d), once again handled it with nifty 2D compositing and 3D tracking, with the actor wearing a wig and the aid of a younger stand-in.\nILM went back to the 1933 original \u201cKing Kong\u201d in designing the 100-foot gorilla for Jordan Vogt-Roberts\u2019 \u201cApocalypse Now\u201d riff. However, Kong was a hybrid of man and gorilla, and so ILM came up with the idea of a movie monster. He doesn\u2019t walk on all fours and they had to find the right cadence and movement style to make it work.\nThe animation was entirely keyframed, using ILM\u2019s Oscar-winning facial-capture and BlockParty procedural rigging systems. But, not surprisingly, fur posed the biggest challenge. Kong required a dedicated two-person team for thicker and more-realistic grooming, which also demanded a battle-weary look. That\u2019s 19 million hairs, complicated by water interaction on the fur, achieved with the help of the water simulation team on a variety of looks. For ILM, it was the badass Kong.\nThis Article is related to: Awards and tagged Best Visual Effects, Oscars, Top of the Line, War For The Planet Of The Apes",

Photo by Raquel Hendrickson\nDerek Picha loved physical education as a kid so much he is now pursuing a master\u2019s degree in PE.\n\u201cMy favorite part of being an educator is getting to see kids experience that \u201cAh-ha!\u201d moment every day,\u201d Picha said. \u201cKnowing that students leave my classes with a new skill or idea is truly rewarding.\u201d\nLast year, he was nominated for Rookie of the Year in Arizona Health and Physical Education (AzHPE).That is the state\u2019s professional association for health and physical educators. It was his first year at Pima Butte Elementary School.\nIn February, he organized a Jump Rope for Heart event setting a school goal of raising $2,000 for the American Heart Association. Instead, PBES raised $3,228.\nHe said it is one of his proudest moments. This year, he said the new goal will be $4,000.\n\u201cI greatly enjoy all of the different activities being an educator can lead to,\u201d Picha said. \u201cFor example, I get the honor of coaching our sixth grade students at Pima Butte as part of our district\u2019s sixth grade athletics program. We offer basketball, soccer, and cross country for free to our students.\u201d\nBased on research, Picha encourages parents to allow children to get in 30-60 minutes of \u201cplay time\u201d before rushing into homework.\nHis involvement with AzHPE has given him the opportunity to present workshops at the state convention on implementing technology for assessment in physical education. He recently volunteered to serve on the association board.\nPicha said he went into education as a career because he wanted to make a difference in the world. Education fulfills that need, he said, but he does believe so much high-stakes testing across the country is interfering with actual learning time.\nHis move to Maricopa from St. Cloud, Minnesota, was precipitated by cold weather. \u201cI\u2019ve chosen to remain in Maricopa because it has a welcoming feeling to it and I greatly enjoyed my first year of teaching physical education at Pima Butte,\u201d he said.\nHe is following advice from a former teacher who suggested he start his master\u2019s program before becoming heavily involved in coaching while teaching. He said that turned out to be great advice for his time management.\nHe has also benefited from St. Cloud State University professors stressing the importance of developing a strong professional learning network. \u201cAs a result, I\u2019ve attended a number of state and regional conferences and workshops and connected with countless like-minded educators throughout the world via social media,\u201d he said.\nDerek Picha teaches physical education at Pima Butte Elementary School and is pursuing a master\u2019s degree. Photo by Raquel Hendrickson\nDerek Picha\nSchool: Pima Butte Elementary School\nHometown: Mora, Minnesota\nResidence: Desert Passage\nEducation: Bachelor of Science in Health & Physical Education obtained in May 2013 from St. Cloud State University in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Currently pursuing an M.Ed in Physical Education from the University of Arkansas and plan to complete the program by the end of the 2017-18 school year.\nFamily: Duane Picha (father) and Kristie Picha (sister), both of whom reside in Minnesota.\nTeaching positions held: I had one previous position as a part-time health education teacher serving students in grades 7-12 at an alternative school in St. Cloud.\nFirst job out of college: Part-time health education teacher at McKinley Alternative Learning Center in the St. Cloud Area School District.\nHobbies: Exercising, attending sporting events, watching movies\nFirst year with current school: 2014-15\nFavorite subject when you were in elementary school? Physical education\nWhat have your students taught you? My students have taught me that a lot can be accomplished in a very short amount of time with the right amount of hard work and determination. This has become clear to me in my brief experience coaching sixth grade sports so far. With short playing seasons in basketball and soccer these kids amaze me with how much they improve from the start of the season to its conclusion.\nThis story appeared in the December issue of InMaricopa News.",

        "raw_content": "Are You A Voice for Life? The Morning After Pill & Abortion\nEvery now and then, I write about current issues and topics of our time. And that\u2019s what I believe God has called me to do today. As women, we need to be educated and stay abreast of what\u2019s happening in the world around us, especially as we are called to be salt and light in the earth and witnesses for Christ. I\u2019m aware that many won\u2019t talk about this titled issue on the level that I will today, and that\u2019s okay. But as for me, I have a responsibility to do so, so here goes\u2026\nI\u2019m sure some of you have heard by now that the morning after pill, known as \u201cPlan B\u201d, will no longer require a prescription. It will now be available for purchase over the counter for girls as young as 15 years of age and without parental consent. All they have to do is prove their age and it\u2019s a done deal. How do you feel about that? Do you think it\u2019s okay? Does this concern you at all? Or as a Christian, do you think that it\u2019s their choice and none of your business?\nWell, as a professing Christian, I would say that it is our business to care about it. And it\u2019s not just about the age, but the pill within itself for any female. Why? Because the pill kills life. I\u2019ve researched it and I encourage you to do the same. On the website of Plan B it reads, \u201cYou should use Plan B One-Step\u00ae within 72 hours (3 days) after you've had unprotected sex or birth control failure to help prevent pregnancy from happening. The sooner you take it, the better it works.\u201d Now, compared to WebMD, it reads, \u201cIf one sperm does make its way into the Fallopian tube and burrow into the egg, it fertilizes the egg. The egg changes so that no other sperm can get in. At the instant of fertilization, your baby's genes and sex are set. If the sperm has a Y chromosome, your baby will be a boy. If it has an X chromosome, the baby will be a girl.\u201d Plan B makes it seem like there\u2019s really no pregnancy (Hint below: It helps prevent pregnancy before it happens). Really? But doctors say that at instant fertilization (once the sperm hits the egg), your baby has a sex (girl or boy). Wow! Do you recognize the deception from the enemy now? Reader pay attention\u2026be sober and alert.\nThe keys here are education and the Word of God. Plan B really shouldn\u2019t be an option for any young girl or woman for that fact. I strongly believe that abstinence should be Plan A, and then there would be no need for a Plan B. That is the best contraceptive! I know that may seem a little old fashioned to some today, but it\u2019s not. It\u2019s the absolute best way to God. His word tells us in 1 Thessalonians 4:3 which states, \u201cFor this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication.\u201d Now, if you don\u2019t know what fornication means, here goes\u2026 In Webster\u2019s New World Dictionary it is defined as, \u201cVoluntary sexual intercourse engaged in by an unmarried person.\u201d You see, sex and children is a GREAT thing, but it is reserved for marriage, ladies (and men, if you\u2019re reading this\u2026hint, hint). The Bible also says in 1 Corinthians 6:18, \u201cFlee fornication.\u201d (KJV). Simply put\u2026RUN!\nAccording to 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 it says, \u201cNo other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Or don\u2019t you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.\u201d (NLT) There you have it! You and I have been bought with a high price\u2026Jesus Christ paid a lot for us as he died on the cross to save us from our sins. So it\u2019s important that once we\u2019ve accepted him, that we don\u2019t sin against him again with our bodies in fornication or adultery. Hebrews 13:4 says, \u201cLet marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.\u201d\nI had to add the part about marriage and adultery, because sometimes women do commit this act and sometimes become pregnant. And at this point, Plan B becomes an option. It happens. So, I had to add that. Now I will also add here that, of course we all have a free will. We can be Pro-Choice or Pro-Life. God will never force us to make the right decisions, but He will prompt us by His Holy Spirit and sometimes will even speak to us directly, like He did with me.\nI\u2019ll never forget that day. I\u2019ve been that teenager who was sexually active at 15 years old. And I\u2019ve also been that scared teenager at 17 when I became pregnant with my college boyfriend. I didn\u2019t know what to do. I was so scared to tell my parents, but I knew that I had to. Once I realized that it was an actual baby living inside of me, I actually wanted my baby. But I was encouraged to have an abortion by my mother. I was so broken-hearted, but I thought I had to obey. I love my mom with all my heart today. I just believe that she thought that she was making the best decision for me without her own true knowledge or education on what was actually being considered. I can still remember sitting on that cold, steel table rubbing my stomach, talking to my baby saying, \u201cI\u2019m so sorry. Please forgive me.\u201d After waking up from a hard sleep at home, I remember crying so hard about that decision. I was broken. Something inside of me that was so precious was gone\u2026.a life. But that\u2019s also when I became Pro-Choice.\nYet, because of my ignorance of what I was doing, I continued to stay sexually active and I became pregnant again. There I was as a young adult, headed to another abortion clinic. And shortly thereafter that, I became pregnant again\u2026only a month later. That\u2019s when I had a life-changing encounter with God. As I lay there thinking about this Pro-choice decision again, God stopped me in my tracks and spoke these words to me so clearly, \u201cIf you kill another one of my babies, I am going to kill you.\u201d I had NEVER heard God speak before. I was so shaken! But I knew without a shadow of a doubt, that it was Him. God says in His Word, \u201cI kill and I make alive\u201d (see Deuteronomy 32:39). I will tell you, I cried so hard that day and night, because I knew that I had to stop what I was doing and make the right choice by having my baby. Today, my son is now 14 years old, and I am so thankful to God that I made the right decision.\nAs a back-sliding sinner at the time, I made a lot of wrong choices. The reason it\u2019s called back-sliding is because when you\u2019ve accepted Christ at one time, yet go back into a life of sin, that\u2019s called back-sliding. Sure, I had accepted Christ at 12 years old, but I didn\u2019t know much about Christianity and how to live a born-again (changed) lifestyle during my teenage and young adult life. However, since those decisions, I have definitely asked God to forgive me and I have repented of such sins. And I am even more grateful that the Lord has forgiven me. Today, I am Pro-Life and helping others to make the right choice as well. It\u2019s not my way, but God\u2019s way.\nIf you are considering Plan B or abortion, pray and talk to someone about this before you make this decision, especially as a Christian. James 4:17, \u201cIt is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.\u201d Abortion clinics and Plan B won\u2019t tell you about the detrimental after-effects and consequences for sin like female problems down the line like endometriosis, scar tissue, abdominal pain, and other life-threatening issues. Keep in mind, the devil does not have your best interest at heart. But God does. If you or someone you know becomes pregnant, know that God encourages through His Word that He will never leave us nor forsake us. He will provide for our every need. So again, even if it\u2019s not you, and you know someone who is considering this, pray and talk to them as the Holy Spirit leads you. Be a voice for the unborn, especially if you are a youth or young adult leader. They need to be educated. There are also pregnancy resource centers and abortion healing classes that may be in your area that can help. So again, I\u2019ll ask you this question again. Are you a voice for life? I hope you make the right choice.\nBe educated.

        "raw_content": "Intel Corporation (INTC) Beats ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (ARMH) to the Server Punch With Avoton\nAt the top of every CIO\u2019s mind when it comes time to upgrade and/or expand hardware in the datacenter, is the simple metric of performance per watt per dollar. That is, these folks want the highest performance that they can get, in the smallest power envelope possible, all for the lowest cost of ownership. In the data-center, Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) has been the reigning champion of this delicate performance per watt per dollar equation with its well-known Xeon lineup, and has been taking market share from the likes of Advanced Micro Devices, IBM, and Oracle for years now.\nThe tides set to turn\u2026again?\nHowever, chip IP vendor ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ:ARMH) \u2013 one of the most successful growth stories in the semiconductor space over the last few years \u2013 has ambitions of enabling a wide set of ecosystem partners to compete in this space. To this end, ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ:ARMH) crafted a new 64-bit instruction set, a bunch of IP including system interconnects and processor cores that it hopes will allow its partners to gain share across the data-center.\nWhile a good deal of optimism has been baked into ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ:ARMH)\u2019s share price on the datacenter opportunity (shares trade for 31 times fiscal year 2014 projected earnings), as well as an equal amount of pessimism in Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC)\u2019s on that same ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ:ARMH) opportunity, I believe that this dynamic may be thrown into question following Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC)\u2019s recent launch of its Atom C2000 processors. Long story short, Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) is the first out of the gate with a high performance, low power set of highly integrated processors for parts of the data-center (low end networking, storage, and micro-servers), and preliminary performance data suggests that it will be very tough for Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC)\u2019s competitors to come close to matching Intel\u2019s offerings.\nIntel\u2019s advantages are numerous\nIntel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC)\u2019s advantages in the server space are formidable, even before we bring the actual merits of the products into the equation. For instance, the vast majority of the software base in the datacenter is designed for Intel Architecture (the formal term for the X86 instruction set), meaning that it costs time and money for datacenter operators to fundamentally switch (rewriting/recompiling software for a new instruction set isn\u2019t easy). On top of that, Intel has significantly deeper relationships with key system partners such as HP and Supermicro, as well as the \u201croll your own datacenter\u201d companies such as Facebook and Google.\nIn order to disrupt this type of relationship, an ARM-vendor (such as Applied Micro, AMD, or Calxeda) would need to offer processors that offered significant advantages in performance per watt per dollar. While there has been a lot of buzz surrounding the potential power efficiency of ARM Holdings plc (ADR) (NASDAQ:ARMH) products, the truth of the matter is that there is very little (if any) inherent \u201cadvantage\u201d for either the X86 or ARM instruction sets \u2013 they\u2019re just specifications. What determines power efficiency is the transistor technology upon which the chip is built and the quality of the actual design \u2013 two areas in which Intel holds very clear advantages over its competitors.\nAlcoa Inc (AA), Bank of America Corp (BAC), Intel Corporation (INTC): These...

        "raw_content": "By Guest Contributor | November 26, 2018, 3:55 pm | in Columnist\nBY BONNIE WATSON COLEMAN\nYesterday was a dark day for America. Donald Trump sanctioned the use of teargas on hundreds of men, women & children at the U.S. border to further bolster his own lies and grandstanding about the nature of these people and their motivations. The migrants at the border right now are refugees fleeing unthinkable violence in their home countries. To greet them with tear gas and threats of lethal force is abhorrent.\nEvery day Donald Trump reaches new lows in his disdain for immigrants and people of color around the world. Let\u2019s be clear: this so-called \u201ccrisis\u201d at the border is an illusion that has been ginned up by Donald Trump and his sycophants to further his disgusting anti-immigrant agenda. The reckless violence by the U.S. government on our own border is wanton and disgraceful.\nAt the end of World War II, the United States accepted its role as a world leader. As part of that leadership, it has taken in more refugees and asylum seekers than any other nation. Twenty-two percent of New Jersey\u2019s residents began their journey in another country, including 108,000 children. These people are seeking the same safe harbor, and deserve our compassion, not violence.\nHonduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, the nations from which most of these refugees have fled, have faced systematic violence as a result of decades of political instability due, in part, to US political intervention. For much of the 20th Century, it has been US policy \u2013 both official and unofficial \u2013 to prop up authoritarian regimes in Central America in order to protect our own agricultural interests. From backing leaders that perpetrated civilian bombings to interventions that resulted in our own forces training eventual terrorists, the US contributed directly to the instability and violence these refugees are now running from. El Salvador and Honduras rank number 1 and 2 in murder rate worldwide with Guatemala coming in at number 15. The 500-mile stretch of Central America is perhaps the deadliest piece of land outside of an active warzone.\nFor years, our nation has welcomed immigrants because we recognize both the growth and promise they bring and the moral duty we have towards our fellow human beings. One does not walk 2,700 miles merely seeking a \u2018better life.\u2019 These refugees are trying to save their lives and those of their families. They are seeking asylum. We must recognize the humanity in those who\u2019ve arrived at our shores, tired, poor and yearning to breathe free, and welcome them to take part in the grand experiment that is America.\nBonnie Watson Coleman is the Congresswoman from New Jersey\u2019s 12th District.\nIt\u2019s a dark day in America is that you don\u2019t care if people follow our laws or processes. If they were really seeking asylum there are legal ways to do it rather than riot at our border and chant \u201cyes we can.\u201d Sorry, these are not spontaneous acts.\nIt\u2019s a dark day in American because you and your liberal hypocrites want to turn America into Cuba or Venezuela.\nIt\u2019s a dark day in America because politicians like you, the Obamas, Liz Warren, DiBlasio, etc. have achieved great things, yet you hate America and wish for its demise.\nWith such a misinformed statement like the above, we know why the U.S. has a catastrophic of control dangerous problem with illegal immigration.\nEric Eisen\nWhere was she when the Obama administration did this 5 years ago?",

        "title": "Hunting Methods Explained For Beginners | Internet Depot Express",
        "raw_content": "Although hunting is enjoyed by millions of people every year, they don't all define hunting the same way. There are several drastically different ways that the sport can be experienced. To make sure that you get the most out of your experience, it's important to learn about the different hunting options, so that you can choose the method that you'll enjoy the most.\nFor rifle hunting, you need little more than a rifle, ammunition, a hunting knife for cleaning, the appropriate attire for the terrain, and any general camping or hiking gear. Additionally, many consider rifle hunting to be slightly easier than using a bow, simply because it is easier to load a rifle and make a kill with a bullet than it is with a bow. Larger rifles are used to bring down larger game, like elk and bear.\nBow hunting is the preferred hunting type for those who wish to get more in touch with the primal nature of the sport. As it is quieter than rifle hunting, bow hunting often allows opportunities to bag several animals, since others aren't spooked when you fire. However, since bows generally can't produce the same type of power as rifles, aim and accuracy are much more important. Bow hunters generally carry their bow, a hunting knife, extra arrows and arrowheads, extra bowstrings in case of breakage or other string damage, and a rangefinder. They typically aim for only large game, as it is very difficult to bring down smaller animals with a bow.\nUSING DECOYS\nDecoys are typically used for hunting waterfowl, although large game decoys do exist. Generally used in conjunction with fowl-enticing calls or scents, decoys are placed in the sight of hunters who are camouflaged within a hide or a blind. Decoys often reduce the skill level needed for a successful hunt, as they often bring game to the hunter. Decoys also increase the chances of having a successful hunt, which is especially important if you are hunting for meat instead of trophies.\nRegardless of their weapon, many hunters choose to track their game instead of simply waiting for the game to come to them. Bow hunters are more likely to track than rifle hunters, mainly because a bow is quieter and less likely to spook game if the hunter misses. Tracking requires skill in the form of being able to identify animal tracks, scat, and other signs that your desired game has been in the area recently. A skilled tracker can almost guarantee contact with the game that they are hunting. Hunting gear for trackers tends to be sparse and lightweight, since they have to carry everything with them as they go.\nThe use of blinds, hides, lodges, and similar hiding spots is more common than tracking because it requires little more than patience in order to have a successful hunt. Blinds and hides are set up in areas where the desired game is common, and then the hunters simply wait in their hiding spot for their targets to arrive. Abundant hunting gear can be stored in the blind. The main drawbacks to using a blind or a lodge are that they require time to set up, and there is no guarantee that the desired game will make an appearance.",

        "raw_content": "IPO Basics: What Is An IPO?\nIPO Basics: Introduction\nIPO Basics: Getting In On An IPO\nIPO Basics: Don't Just Jump In\nIPO Basics: Tracking Stocks\nIPO Basics: Conclusion\nAn initial public offering, or IPO, is the very first sale of stock issued by a company to the public. Prior to an IPO the company is considered private, with a relatively small number of shareholders made up primarily of early investors (such as the founders, their families and friends) and professional investors (such as venture capitalists or angel investors). The public, on the other hand, consists of everybody else \u2013 any individual or institutional investor who wasn\u2019t involved in the early days of the company and who is interested in buying shares of the company. Until a company\u2019s stock is offered for sale to the public, the public is unable to invest in it. You can potentially approach the owners of a private company about investing, but they're not obligated to sell you anything. Public companies, on the other hand, have sold at least a portion of their shares to the public to be traded on a stock exchange. This is why an IPO is also referred to as \"going public.\"\nA privately held company has some benefits that are forfeited once it goes public. For example, its owners do not have to disclose much financial or accounting information about the company. In the United States, it is easy and relatively inexpensive to found a private company, and most small to medium sized businesses are private. But large companies can be private too. For example, IKEA, Publix Supermarkets, Mars Candy, and Hallmark Cards are all privately held.\nPublic companies have thousands of shareholders and are subject to strict rules and regulations. They must form a board of directors and they must report auditable financial and accounting information every quarter. In the United States, public companies report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In other countries, public companies are overseen by governing bodies similar to the SEC. In addition, public companies must adhere to regulations and requirements set forth by the stock exchanges where their shares are listed. Being on a major stock exchange carries a considerable amount of prestige. Historically, only private companies with strong fundamentals and proven profitability potential could qualify for an IPO and it wasn't easy to get listed. Today, with competition among many stock exchanges, listing requirements have relaxed a bit.\nLooking to invest in IPOs? Find out which online broker offers IPOs in our Brokerage Review Center.\nWhy Have an IPO?\nWhy go public, then? Going public raises a great deal of money for the company in order for it to grow and expand. Private companies have many options to raise capital \u2013 such as borrowing, finding additional private investors, or by being acquired by another company. But, by far, the IPO option raises the largest sums of money for the company and its early investors. Some of the largest IPO\u2019s to date are:\nAlibaba Group (BABA) in 2014 raising $25 billion\nAmerican Insurance Group (AIG) in 2006 raising $20.5 billion\nVISA (V) in 2008 raising $19.7 billion\nGeneral Motors (GM) in 2010 raising $18.15 billion\nFacebook (FB) in 2012 raising $16.01 billion\nReference | Graphiq\nBeing publicly traded also opens many financial doors: Because of the increased scrutiny from analysts and investors, public companies can usually enjoy better (i.e. lower) interest rates when they issue debt. Moreover, as long as there is market demand, a public company can issue more stock in a so-called secondary offering. Thus, mergers and acquisitions are easier to arrange because stock can be issued as part of the deal.\nFor investors, trading in the open markets means liquidity. If you are a shareholder of a private company, it is very difficult to sell your shares, and even more difficult to value your shares. A public company trades on a stock market, with ready buyers and sellers and known price and transaction data. The stock market is therefore referred to as the secondary market, since investors are buying and selling stock from other public investors and not from the company itself. Public markets and liquidity also makes it possible for a company to implement benefits like employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs), which help to attract top talent.\nPros and Cons of an IPO\nA large, diverse group of investors to raise capital\nGives the company a lower cost of capital\nIncrease the company\u2019s exposure, prestige, and public image, which can help the company\u2019s sales and profits\nPublic companies can attract and retain better management and skilled employees through liquid equity participation (e.g. ESOPs)\nFacilitating acquisitions (potentially in return for shares of stock)\nRaises the largest amount of money for the company compared to other options\nCompany becomes required to disclose financial, accounting, tax, and other business information\nSignificant legal, accounting and marketing costs, many of which are ongoing\nIncreased time, effort and attention required of management for reporting\nRisk that required funding will not be raised if the market does not accept the IPO price, sending the stock price lower right after the offering\nPublic dissemination of information which may be useful to competitors, suppliers and customers\nLoss of control and stronger agency problems due to new shareholders, who obtain voting rights and can effectively control company decisions via the board of directors\nIncreased risk of legal or regulatory issues, such as private securities class action lawsuits and shareholder actions\nAn IPO, to recap, is when the company sells stock to the public. If a firm can convince people to buy stock in the company, it can raise a lot of money. The IPO is seen as an exit strategy for the company founders and early investors to profit from their early risk taking in a new venture. Therefore, in an IPO many of the shares sold to the public were previously owned by those founders and investors.\nThe stock market is referred to as the \u201csecondary market,\u201d since traders buy and sell stock from other public investors, and not from the company itself. Only prior to the IPO does the company issue stock directly to shareholders. This means that when you buy shares of a company, you are not handing your investment money over to the corporation, but instead to whomever sold you their shares. When a company sells shares to the public, the company and its owners still typically retain a significant portion of the total stock, so some early investors and co-founders may still have a great deal of influence on the direction of the company despite there being a large number of new shareholders.\nWhy Companies Stay Private\nMany private companies prefer to stay private and find alternate sources of capital.

The fabulous sea views are simply mesmerising and the open plan living area with huge windows, makes the most of them. This area of Mull is suited to those seeking an authentic island experience - there are a scattering of houses along the west coast here where the coastline is rugged, beautiful and unspoilt.\nSnipe Cottage is situated at Fanmore, near Torloisk - an area characterised by its beautiful woodland, rugged coastline and stepped tablelands. There is a small population of local residents but no shops to speak of here - just a small local restaurant at Ballygown, and a beautiful hillside garden to explore at Lip na Cloiche.\nThe area becomes busier in the summer months when boat trips regularly depart from Ulva Ferry, close by, to both the Treshnish Islands and Staffa. There is also a ferryman who provides a service to those wanting to visit the Isle of Ulva, which is separated from Mull by a short stretch of water and a fantastic place to visit during your time here - it has lovely walking tracks, a traditional black house to visit and a lovely cafe at The Boathouse serving excellent seafood.\nThe closest village is Dervaig, a twenty minute drive from the house, which has a good village shop and the oldest inn on the island. Calgary beach is a little further on, with its horseshoe shaped bay and wonderful surrounds - but there is a closer beach, Traigh na Cille, which receives fewer visitors, being tucked away, a short walk from the roadside. Loch na Keal is a short distance away, heading in the opposite direction (south), which is a great area for wildlife watching and seeing the dramatic mountainous central area of the island.",

        "raw_content": "A Bigger Western Digital, But Is it Better?\nArthur Cole | | Posted 08 Mar, 2011\nSolid-state drives (SSDs) have made substantial inroads into enterprise environments, but let's face it: Hard disk drives (HDDs) continue to provide the overwhelming majority of storage capacity around the globe.\nBut with continued pricing pressures cutting margins on HDDs ever tighter, it's no wonder the industry is ripe for some consolidation. And by \"some\" I mean a lot.\nThe sheer size of the new entity produced by the merger of Western Digital and Hitachi Global Storage Technologies will be enough to take one's breath away. The merger itself is valued at $4.3 billion and will put nearly half of the world's hard disk market under its control. And this came at a time when Western Digital had already emerged as the leading drive manufacturer, edging past Seagate in total shipments in the past two quarters.\nA key factor to keep in mind, though, is the enterprise industry's insatiable demand for storage, particularly extreme scale up and scale out options for highly virtualized environments, according to Gerson Lehrman Group's Thomas Coughlin. Western Digital already had the lowest development costs, and Hitachi Global Storage provides a dramatic increase in manufacturing capability while allowing the combined company to shed the highly convoluted production and distribution system that Hitachi had built up over the years.\nAnother interesting aspect of the merger is the fact that Japanese companies are notoriously reticent to sell off their business units-especially to foreigners, says Daisuke Wakabayashi in The Wall Street Journal. The last notable divestiture was mobile firm NTT DoCoMo's sale of its minority stake in AT&T Wireless to Cingular, a move that didn't even involve a home-grown business. The decision by Hitachi represents new thinking in Japanese board rooms that soup-to-nuts conglomerates don't necessarily hold a competitive advantage, particularly in boom-to-bust industries like storage.\nThat's a lesson that Western Digital might come to appreciate before too long as well, according to conceivablytech.com's Kurt Bakke. The fact is, with disk-free tablets set to supplant more and more netbooks and laptops, demand for smaller HDDs could start to wane. And while Hitachi's innovative SSD technology will help shore up one of Western Digital's weak spots, it's unclear whether SSDs will help recoup the $4.3 billion investment in a significant way.\nConventional wisdom holds that big mergers are usually more trouble than they are worth, what with the enormous challenges of systems integration, manufacturing, sales and distribution streamlining and the overall blending of corporate cultures. But in a commodity industry like disk drives, size is not necessarily a bad thing-as long as Western Digital continues to focus on keeping prices low and resilience high.",

        "raw_content": "Congress Passes Law Lowering Ratio Between Crack Cocaine and Powder Cocaine Criminal Sentences\nFor a long time in federal criminal court, sentences for crimes involving crack cocaine were much harsher than sentences for crimes involving powder cocaine. In fact, all other things being equal, a person with 100 grams of powder cocaine may likely receive the same sentence as a person with 1 gram of crack cocaine. The Obama administration has discussed changing this system so that crack cocaine crimes are punished more in line with powder cocaine crimes in federal court.\nCongress recently passed a law to help accomplish that goal, at least partially. The law does not equalize powder cocaine and crack cocaine sentences, but it significantly lowers the sentencing ratio. Now, all things being equal, 1 gram of powder cocaine is punished the same way as 18 grams of crack cocaine in federal criminal cases. Additionally, 28 grams of crack cocaine will trigger the 5 year minimum mandatory prison sentence while 280 grams of powder cocaine will trigger that 5 year minimum mandatory federal prison sentence.\nNow, the question for many people who are serving sentences for crack cocaine crimes in federal prison, or have pending crack cocaine cases in federal court, is whether this new law applies to them. Can a person who is serving a sentence for a crack cocaine crime who was sentenced pursuant to the 100-1 ratio go back in front of a federal judge to get his/her sentence reduced? Can a person with a pending crack cocaine case be sentenced pursuant to the new 18-1 ratio? The new law does not address these questions, i.e. when the law becomes effective, or whether the law is retroactive. Normally, when a law does not address this issue of the effective date or retroactivity, it does not apply to prior or existing cases. Normally, it would only apply to cases where the date of the offense occurred after the date the law was officially passed. However, that issue will likely be argued and litigated in federal criminal cases going forward.",

In South Africa, it is also known as the Ghost Shark.\nThis fishy lives from 200 to over 2,000 meters below sea-level, nearly 8,000 feet down in the abyss. The long nose has many sensory endings used to locate small fish for it to eat.\nIt also has a poisonous spike protruding from the first dorsal fin, which is mildly toxic and thought to be for defence purposes.\nVery little seems to be known about these odd fish, but here is a link to a scientific paper which gives info about all of the Chimera order.",

Nelson, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Published 2:35 p.m. CT Sept. 6, 2018 | Updated 7:26 a.m. CT Sept. 7, 2018\nPeople representing IATSE Local 18 hold signs protesting wages for stagehands outside the Fiserv Forum on Tuesday, August 28, 2018.(Photo11: Mike De Sisti, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)Buy Photo\nLast week, a crew of about two dozen workers assembled the massive rolling stage that The Killers and Violent Femmes used for the first big gig at Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum.\nThe Milwaukee Bucks hired the workers to put together the stage, a routine part of the pre-concert preparation. The workers were non-union, and that's drawn the ire of Local 18 of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees.\nMembers of the union work at Summerfest and the various ethnic festivals at Maier Festival Park, the Marcus Center, Wisconsin State Fair and various Wisconsin Center District venues.\nThey were not hired for work at the Bucks' previous home, the BMO Harris Bradley Center, nor have they been offered assignments at Fiserv Forum.\nThe union has attempted to discuss work at the new arena with the Milwaukee Bucks, but hasn't had much success, said Tom Gerferich, business manager for Local 18, which has about 100 members.\n\"We've been face-to-face a few times, but I wouldn't call them discussions,\" he said.\nThat dispute has led to picketing by union members and supporters, including a large showing of several dozen people at the Fiserv Forum grand opening Aug. 26. The union has displayed a large inflatable rat at several of its arena protests.\nThey returned a few days later when the Democratic National Committee came to Milwaukee. The city is a finalist for the 2020 DNC national convention, and the arena is a central part of the plan to attract the event.\nBig difference in wages\nThe Bucks say that the decision to use non-union stagehands is a matter of economics. They've agreed to pay a starting wage of $12.50 an hour for arena workers and promised that the pay would bump up to $15 within a few years.\nUnion workers doing the same work would be paid a little more than $20 an hour, Gergerich said.\nGergerich said he met with Bucks senior vice president Alex Lasry in advance of the arena opening. Lasry offered the union a meeting with Bucks President Peter Feigin and arena general manager Raj Saha, on the condition that the picketing end, Gergerich said.\nThat offer didn't sit well with the union, he said. \"There was nothing of any substance going on,\" Gergerich said.\nFeigin said the Bucks are paying arena workers fairly and isn't pleased with the union's actions.\n\"This has been exceedingly aggressive,\" he said. \"I think everyone chooses their tactics. This is not the way that we like to do business.\"\nThe Bucks have said the union is free to organize the stagehands currently employed by the team.\nGergerich said Thursday that there has been no further contact with Bucks management. Feigin indicated that was likely to remain the case.\n\"There are hundreds of people who are very happy with what we do,\" Feigin said.\nRead or Share this story: https://jsonl.in/2wOf61X",

        "title": "Sporting Kansas City announces new deal with midfielder Benny Feilhaber | The Kansas City Star",
        "raw_content": "\u201cIn the end, the most important thing was they wanted me back, and I always wanted to stay here.\u201d\nThe deal will pay Feilhaber more than the designated player threshold in MLS, a source told The Star. That number fell at $457,500 in 2016. In other words, Feilhaber, who will be 32 next season, will receive a raise from the $412,187.50 he earned in 2016, according to figures released by the MLS Players Union.\nBut he will not occupy one of the club\u2019s three designated player spots. Sporting KC will instead utilize either targeted allocation money or general allocation money to \u201cbuy down\u201d his salary.\nThe contract came together over the past 10 days. Sporting KC made only one offer during the 2016 regular season, which Feilhaber classified as \u201cnowhere close to what I would be willing to sign.\u201d\nThat prompted him to instruct his agent to seek other opportunities at the end of the season. Hapoel Be\u2019er Sheva was a natural destination. The club made Sporting KC a transfer offer for Feilhaber in August, which Sporting KC rejected. Hapoel Be\u2019er Sheva renewed its interest in the offseason.\nBut before Feilhaber made a scheduled trip overseas to watch a match, Sporting KC presented him with the two-year offer.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been our intention all along to do everything we can to re-sign Benny,\u201d Sporting KC coach Peter Vermes said in a press release. \u201cWe appreciate the professionalism that he and his agent have shown throughout the process and are very excited that he is coming back to our club. Benny has been an important part of the club\u2019s success over the past four years and we look to continue that moving forward.\u201d\nFeilhaber told The Star he insisted on a deal that spanned at least two years, excluding club options. He will be a free agent when the pact expires after MLS opened free agency last offseason to players 28 and older who have been the league for at least eight seasons.\nFeilhaber, a World Cup veteran, has spent the past four years in Kansas City after being traded from New England, totaling 24 goals and 38 assists in his tenure here. He recorded a club-record 20 assists across all competitions in 2015, when he finished third in the league\u2019s MVP voting.\n\u201cThis is the place where I\u2019ve had the four most successful years of my career, and I know I\u2019ll continue to be successful here,\u201d Feilhaber said. \u201cI know this team is ambitious to win championships. Both my daughters were born here. My family lives here. I love playing in a stadium that sells out every match.\n\u201cI think for all those reasons, it made perfect sense to come back.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\u2022 The crowd for Sunday\u2019s race was probably one of the worst since Texas began hosting NASCAR events in April 1997 and clearly the worst since the track began hosting two Cup events per season in 2005. The NFL\u2019s Dallas Cowboys were playing a home game on Sunday, which could have contributed to the problem. But there was a significant drop-off in attendance from the spring event, which of course is not one of the 10 Chase races. Hosting Chase races just doesn\u2019t seem to have any added advantage for a track, if it ever did.\n\u2022 Nationwide Series regular Parker Kligerman made his Cup debut with Swan Racing, a small, underfunded team. He ran competitive most of the day and finished 18th. What does that say for drivers with more experience on a much higher quality teams who finish far worse with no obvious mechanical issues? Clearly track-time isn\u2019t everything.\nHow the Chase contenders fared\n1 Jimmie Johnson (2,342): As good as Johnson was on Sunday he only picked up a seven-point advantage on Matt Kenseth. Johnson left Texas last year with a seven-point advantage over second place but ended up not winning the championship.\n\u201cThis thing is going to go to the last lap at Homestead, and it is going to come down to mistakes,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m very excited about our performance and what we did here.\u201d\n2 Matt Kenseth (-7): Kenseth was doing his best to keep pace with Johnson throughout the race but his run got derailed on Lap 173 when he was penalized by NASCAR for speeding on pit road. After the penalty, he fell to 16th and the last car on the lead lap but rallied to finish fourth.\n3 Kevin Harvick (-40) : Harvick could crack the top-five and contend for the race win, but he finished eighth and moved into third place in the series standings. The only other driver at this point with a plausible chance at winning the championship besides Johnson and Kenseth.\n4 Kyle Busch (-52) : Early in the race, Busch had a tire problem and slapped the wall. He fought back to run as high as second and was still running in the top-five late in the race when he was penalized for speeding on pit road during a green-flag pit stop.\n5 Dale Earnhardt Jr. (-62) : Earnhardt has done everything but win this season and his runner-up finish Sunday was his fifth of the season, including three during the Chase.\n\u201cWe want to put forward a good account of ourselves in the Chase because you're in there for a reason and you don't want to be an also ran,\u201d he said. \u201cSo we feel like we're doing a lot of good work and getting really close to probably breaking through and getting a win.\u201d\n6 Jeff Gordon (-69): Gordon\u2019s championship chances took a likely-fatal hit early when he had a tire go down and slammed into the wall on Lap 74. He was forced to the garage for extensive repairs.\n7 Clint Bowyer (-69): Bowyer had a long battle from the back after a tough day in qualifying on Friday. He short-pit on the final round of green-flag pit stops and grabbed a 10th place out of the race.\n8 Greg Biffle (-73): There was a point in the race when Biffle thought he might have an engine issue but it appeared to be debris on the grille. He still managed to finish 12th.\n\u201cThat was a tough one. The car wasn\u2019t very good in traffic,\u201d he said. \u201cWe just weren\u2019t where we wanted to be. It was a tough day.\u201d\n9 Joey Logano (-91): After a tough start to the Chase, Logano has slowly crawled back into the Top 10 in points. His third place finish on Sunday tied for his best performance of the Chase (he was also third at Dover).\n\u201cFrom the start of the race we started moving our way forward and I thought I was a second or third place car all night,\u201d he said.\n10 Kurt Busch (-96) : Busch had problems in qualifying and was never able to get to the front. He ended up 17th.\n11 Carl Edwards (-116): Edwards, the pole winner, had been running well but on Lap 188 he pulled down pit road with an engine problem and ended up done for the day.\n\u201cWe had such a great weekend going. The car, during the middle part of the race we were struggling but we were starting to get it worked out,\u201d Edwards said.\n12 Ryan Newman (-118): Throughout the race Newman fought an exceedingly loose condition \u2013 in fact at one point he asked his team to check his tires to see if he had a loose wheel. He rallied for a ninth-place finish \u2013 his third top-10 finish of the past four races.\n13 Kasey Kahne (-133) : Kahne has had his two best performances of the Chase in the last four weeks and both on 1.5-mile speedways. He was second at Charlotte and fifth at Texas.\n1. Johnson took early command of the race, leading 35 of the first 74 laps.\n2. Jeff Gordon was forced to the garage after he had a tire go down and slammed the wall on Lap 74. He ended up 38th.\n3. During a round of green-flag pit stops on Lap 173, Matt Kenseth was penalized by NASCAR for speeding on pit road. He was running second at the time and dropped to 16th, the last car on the lead lap.\n4. Johnson had a slow pit stop during green-flag stops on Lap 240 and came out in fourth. Twenty laps later, he had powered back to the lead.\n5. With Johnson firmly in command several drivers tried short-pitting during the final round of green-flag pit stops to gain an advantage. Dale Earnhardt Jr. moved up to second but had nothing to stop Johnson\u2019s sixth win of the season.",

Latin American countries are helping to shrink the malaria map, and bringing the world closer to our ultimate goal of malaria eradication.

        "raw_content": "Lucifer's Tears by James Thompson\nTitle: Lucifer's Tears\nPublisher: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 2011\nGenre: Police Procedural, #2 Inspector Vaara mystery\nFirst Line: The baby kicks against my hand and rouses me from my nap.\nIt's been a year since Inspector Kari Vaara solved the Sufia Elmi case, and he's been left physically and emotionally scarred. Now living and working in Helsinki, Finland, his very pregnant wife is adjusting well, but Vaara is not. He is not trusted by his fellow police officers in the homicide unit and finds himself working graveyard shift with another officer who's not trusted either. Vaara suffers from insomnia and with chronic headaches that last for weeks.\nVaara's superiors force him to investigate a ninety-year-old national hero for war crimes committed during World War II. The Finnish government is pressing for a conclusion of innocence, which will preserve the country's heroic perception of itself, but Germany (among others) wants extradition. What makes this a sticky case for Vaara is the fact that his own grandfather served side-by-side with this hero during the war.\nVaara is also drawn into the murder case of Iisa Filippov. It is obvious that her lover is being framed for the crime, but while the evidence points towards her arrogant husband, Ivan Filippov is being protected by highly connected members of the police force.\nAs icing on his cake, Vaara's wife invites her brother and sister to stay with them. With all the different personalities involved, it's not going to be an easy family reunion.\nI really enjoyed Snow Angels, the first book in this series, for its depiction of the life and customs of the Fins living at the Arctic Circle, for the character of Kari Vaara, and for the story itself. This second book, with its new location in Helsinki, is a strong and welcome addition to the series.\nOnce more, the history and customs of Finland are deftly woven into the story, and the murder investigation keeps the pages turning as Vaara has to figure out a way to bring the right man to justice. But as strong as the setting and plot are, it is the characters who truly bring this book to life.\nThe brother and sister visiting from the United States have overtones of the \"house guests from hell\", but they are not one-dimensional characters. They both have depth and help to make Vaara's wife come into much clearer focus.\nOf course, Inspector Kari Vaara is the most clearly delineated character of all. He is a man who loves his wife so much that he would move from the place he loves to a city that he hates. He is willing to put up with her brother and sister living with them during the last stages of his wife's pregnancy no matter that they are both thorns in his side. He continues to deal with a partner who's often insufferable because he has the feeling that, buried somewhere deep inside, there exists a good cop. And Vaara is the kind of man who must find the truth and who must work for justice, even though it may forever tarnish his memories of a beloved grandfather.\nLucifer's Tears is a fast-paced, involving story with many added extras. Even though it stands alone well, I think you'll want to read these two books in order so that you can get to know Inspector Kari Vaara. The acquaintance is one that I have learned to savor.\nLabels: Book Reviews, Finland, Inspector Kari Vaara, James Thompson, Police Procedural\nI've only skimmed this enough to know it's good as I'm expecting my copy to arrive in the next couple of weeks and I'll probably read it straight away\nCathy - Thanks for this review. This one does look absolutely terrific, and I am putting it on my TBR list. Now.\noh, just what I need...another mystery series! Especially one set in a cold, northern place like Finland, for which I have a weakness...How dare you! ..lol\nok, off to see if I can find the first one.\nBernadette-- I'm honored that you read it at all because I know how you are about spoilers!\nMargot-- Great!\nCaite-- Of course you need another mystery series. We ALL do! LOL\nSounds good! and of course I'll have to start with number one in the series.\nElizabeth-- Thanks!\nKris-- It's the best place to start!",

        "title": "I Have Kate Morton Covered! ~ Kittling: Books",
        "raw_content": "I Have Kate Morton Covered!\nI just experienced the strongest memory of standing in the fiction department of Harrods. Looking at all those lovely books-- several of them by favorite authors and not yet published in the US-- made me think of this series of posts comparing the US and UK covers of crime fiction titles. Okay. So it also made me think about buying a suitcase and filling it with several of those lovely lovely books. Do I sound like a normal bookaholic now? Good!\nThis week I chose to compare the covers of Kate Morton's latest novel, The Lake House, because it was just released yesterday here in the US. I love her books, and I wanted to see the differences in the covers. Let's get down to business and take a look!\nThe UK Cover...\nBlue sky, birds, tall trees, and the top story-and-a-half of a marvelous old house. I mean-- look at those windows! And the chimneys and chimney pots!\nI like the fonts used for the title and author, and they show up well against the sky. The only other information to be seen is \"Number One Bestseller.\"\nThis is a simple cover that fits the book quite well... and I want to walk into that house!\nThe US Cover...\nBy comparison the US cover is a bit busy. Blue sky and blue lake water. Trees. The side of a woman's head superimposed on a house. The fonts used on the title and author are simpler, but they don't stand out as well against the background. \"New York Times Bestselling Author,\" \"Author of The Secret Keeper,\" and \"A Novel\" round out the information on the US cover.\nThe woman's face stamps this book as women's fiction. I wonder how many men would at least pick it up if it just showed the house and no woman? And speaking of the house, the title of the book is The Lake House-- I want to see the house, not the side of a woman's head!\nOh-- I'd like to have your opinions, please. Am I the only person who wonders why publishers go to all the trouble of slapping \"A Novel\" on a work of fiction? It seems unnecessary to me, but there's got to be a reason behind it.\nHands down, the UK cover. Simpler, prettier, and I love what I can see of that house.\nWhich cover do you prefer? US? UK? Neither one? Inquiring minds would love to know!\nLabels: Book Covers, Kate Morton, US vs UK\nWell, this inquiring mind agrees with your inquiring mind. The British cover definitely!\nAnd I agree on the fonts.\nHowever, I might have asked the artist to put the house a little further back in the design and put even a hint of a lake next to it. But definitely, no woman's head.\nWhy does a publisher think that putting a woman's head on a cover is attractive or compels would-be readers to buy the book?\nEvidently publishers tend to think that we women stick together and will buy books if a member of our sex is represented... although all those bare-chested hunks on the covers of romance novels tend to belie that.\nIn other words, I don't understand it either, Kathy!\nMost definitely, Cathy - the UK cover! I don't like the 'pigeonholing' of the US cover very much...\nI'll have to remember that term... pigeonholing... it's perfect!\nKate Lyons October 22, 2015 at 4:11 PM\nAnother vote for the UK cover! I had trouble seeing the piece of the house that's on the US cover because of all the other detail, but that's not its biggest problem. The US cover is just very blue and otherwise blah; what I think is meant to be sunlight on the water instead comes across as that blue fading to nothingness, which is not at all appealing.\nGood observation, Kate. It made me look at those covers again. I love the color blue, but there's too much of it on the US cover. However, if you \"plot it out\" there's about the same amount on both. It overwhelms on the US cover because it's on top and bottom where the UK cover reserves it for the sky.\nThe UK cover for me, too, definitely. I am just itching to get inside that house and explore!\nNow if Jasper Fforde's Jurisfiction were real, we could be like Tuesday Next and jump right into that book!",

        "raw_content": "How A First-Year eSports Championship Got A $US2 Million Prize Pool\nEarly next month the top eight Smite teams in the world will converge on Atlanta to battle it out over a massive $US2 million prize pool. How did a first-year MOBA get a pot so big? The same way DOTA 2 did it \u2014 crowdfunding.\nAs Valve used the DOTA 2 Compendium to raise this year's International prize pool to ridiculous levels, Georgia-based Hi-Rez Studios ran a 21-week Smite Odyssey event, in which players could purchase special limited edition skins and such, with a portion of each sale going to the prize pool. Players who purchased each of the 21 special items in the mythology-based MOBA were rewarded with an extremely special skin for the character Thanatos, as seen in the video below\nAnd so the prize pool has exceeded $US2 million making Smite the first game in eSports history to feature that big a pot in its first competitive season. First prize in January's tournament is over $US1 million, for a game that's only technically been out since March. That's pretty insane.\nSince the Smite World Championship is taking place in my own backyard on the weekend of January 11 (my mother used to hold dance recitals at the Cobb Performing Arts Center where the tournament is being held), I'll be hanging out making a nuisance of myself all weekend long.\nSmite is a free-to-play MOBA with a unique third-person perspective, with some 61 combatants representing various real-world mythological pantheons. It's currently available for PC, with the game making its Xbox One gameplay debut during January's event.",

        "raw_content": "- Dielectric Characterization of the Curing Process of Polymeric Resins\nDielectric Characterization of the Curing Process of Polymeric Resins\nAccording to the current state of the art it is not possible, or at least extremely difficult, to use mechanical, thermal and electrical methods to monitor the reaction process during the curing of polymer systems. In recent years dielectric measurements have increasingly been used to monitor the curing process of polymer systems. Using a fixed frequency, the mobility of the various charge carriers is generally calculated as a function of the curing time, which enables the viscosity change undergone by resins during the curing process to be described. However, until now no suitable evaluation methods were available which would have allowed dielectric measurement processes to be applied during production as \"on-line\" quality control methods.\nThe aim of these investigations was to develop a model enabling the reaction process during curing to be described on the basis of dielectric measurement data. Based on the the established time (frequency) - temperature superposition law, a time (frequency) - cross-linking time superposition law is postulated. The validity of this model in describing the reaction process of curable polymers is demonstrated experimentally for a variety of different resin systems. The measurement method needed to be changed in order to carry out these investigations. In each case, an entire frequency spectrum of the dielectric dissipation factor was measured to enable a meaningful evaluation. The evaluation method is widely applicable and easy to implement in practice.\nWhere the dielectric measurement is concerned, the details of the measurement technology used, as well as the set-up and application area of the various sensors, are introduced. Here it is shown that the frequency-dependent measurement of the dielectric dissipation factor as a function of the curing time (in a \"classic\" plate capacitor set-up) provides the data needed for the evaluation most rapidly and reliably. The calculated time - cross-linking superposition function a(t,t0) can be accurately described using an exponential approach. It can be shown that, as is the case with calorimetric measurements, the exponent of this function can be interpreted as a reaction time constant. For systems that react in two stages, the reaction process can also be described with reasonable accuracy using a broadened approach - the sum of two exponential functions. The two exponents provide the reaction time constants for the individual reaction steps.\nWhere the reaction time constants are determined for different reaction temperatures, the Arrhenius relationship can be used to calculate the activation energies of the reaction steps. The calculated data agree well with data presented in the literature. To further investigate the time - reaction time superposition law, simulation calculations are carried out which confirm the fundamental assumptions concerning the dielectric behavior of a reacting polymer system. These simulations can also be used to model the time and frequency-dependent dielectric measurements carried out on the epoxy resin systems. For resin systems showing very rapid reactions, the measurement method and evaluation procedure are modified and then implemented by a processing company in near-real-life conditions, using the example of polyurethane, (reaction time of <10 s). Here, too, the fundamental assumptions concerning the dielectric behavior of reacting resin systems are confirmed, and the suitability of the measurement and evaluation methodology for online quality control can be demonstrated.\nIn principle the dielectric measurement method can be used for all polymerization processes, i.e. for the synthesis, vulcanization and curing of reaction systems, as from a qualitative perspective the same physical and chemical principles apply in each case.\nInstitut f\u00fcr Kunststoffkunde und Kunststoffpr\u00fcfung\nFree keywords: Polymers, resins, crosslinking, curing, dielectric measurements, reaction kinetics, activation energy\nInstitute / chair: Institut f\u00fcr Kunststoffkunde und Kunststoffpr\u00fcfung der Universit\u00e4t Stuttgart\nTechnical consultant for expert services: Prof. Dr. rer. nat.

        "raw_content": "The LA County Arts Commission and the LA County Department of Public Works recently uncovered a time capsule buried at the base of the Fort Moore Pioneer Memorial flag pole in Downtown LA. Originally constructed in 1957 to commemorate the first raising of the American flag in Los Angeles by troops during the Mexican-American War, this monument was designed by architects Kazumi Adachi and Dike Nagano, and features artwork by artists Henry Kreis and Albert Stewart. At the time of its installation the Fort Moore Pioneer Memorial was reported to be the largest bas-relief military monument on the actual site it commemorates in the United States.\nThe Fort Moore Pioneer Memorial\nLocated on North Hill St. in Downtown Los Angeles, the Fort Moore Pioneer Memorial depicts the ceremonial flag being raised over the historic fort on July 4, 1847.\nIn 2016 the Arts Commission and the Department of Public Works began a multi-year restoration of the artwork, and it is because of this restoration that the time capsule was discovered.\n\u201c[At the time of the monument's construction] There was a letter that stated that they wanted to do a time capsule, and that there were these proposed items that they wanted to put in it,\u201d said LA County Arts Commission Civic Art Deputy Director of Collections Clare Haggarty. \u201cSo we were fairly sure that there might be a time capsule. But the fact that it really was there is very exciting.\u201c\nThe capsule was opened under the guidance Conservator Donna Williams of Williams Art Conservation. It contained an array of photos and documents related to the fort, the memorial project, as well as life in Los Angeles circa 1957. One highlight from the capsule is a manuscript written by a May Belle Davis\u2014who, according to the document, was a driving force behind the monument\u2014that describes the idea and inspiration for the monument.\n\u201cEverything is in amazing condition,\u201d said Haggarty. \u201cIn the same condition they put it in the time capsule. Nothing\u2019s deteriorated.\u201d\nCurious about what was contained in the capsule? The Arts Commission hopes to digitize the contents of the capsule and make them available to the public. After which, the plan is to create a 2018 time capsule to be placed back at the base of the monument for future Angelenos to discover.",

        "raw_content": "With so many available treatment options, it can be hard to determine what program you need and when. While you need a full continuum of care, going out of order or skipping a step could mean increasing your risk at a relapse. Understanding when and how an intensive outpatient addiction treatment program will fit into your overall plan is crucial to your success.\nWhat Is an Intensive Outpatient Addiction Treatment Program?\nBefore you consider beginning an intensive outpatient addiction treatment program, you must understand what the plan is. An IOP is a program during addiction treatment that a client will enter after a medical and clinical assessment. During the program, an individual will partake in numerous meetings and therapies while returning home each night. The majority of their days is spent at the facility even though they don\u2019t live on site. Where an individual resides is the main difference between an intensive outpatient addiction treatment program and a residential program.\nWhere an Intensive Outpatient Addiction Treatment Program Fits in Your Plan\nThere are two different scenarios where an intensive outpatient addiction treatment program is best. The first scenario is when the program acts as a stepping stone down from a residential program. Instead of going from a structured routine to being on your own, use an intensive outpatient program to adjust to life outside of your treatment center gradually. As you continue to engage in therapy sessions and other meetings, you begin to get an idea of how life will work once treatment is complete. This gradual shift helps to reduce the risk of relapse.\nThe second scenario is if a medical and clinical assessment shows a residential program isn\u2019t necessary. Professionals will determine what types of programs you need to ensure you only receive the care that will be beneficial to your progress. For those whose addiction isn\u2019t severe or as long-lasting, an intensive outpatient addiction treatment program might be a suitable starting point for treatment. However, you should never be the one to make that call. Always speak with a professional at your treatment center to determine where to begin in your treatment plan.\nWhen you find a reason to want to get clean, there\u2019s always a way to accomplish your goals. Through your addiction treatment center, you will find the programs and therapies necessary to give you the best chance at recovery that lasts.

        "title": "Senator Graham\u2019s Proposed Return to the Independent Counsel Statute and the Problem of Impeachment Anxiety Syndrome - Lawfare",
        "raw_content": "By Bob Bauer\nAs Congress begins to respond more forcefully to Donald Trump\u2019s excesses, a new proposal is taking shape: legislation to limit the president\u2019s capacity to fire the special counsel. Lindsay Graham appears to be leading this charge, working with Cory Booker and others, and they plan to introduce a bill this week. The details are so far limited. But it apparently involves a law on the model of the defunct independent counsel statute that would apply to both this administration and future ones, and by providing for judicial oversight, would constrain the power of presidents to interfere with investigations affecting both them and other senior executive branch officials.\nCongress may move in this direction because it is reluctant to resort to the clear remedy provided by the Constitution for presidential obstruction of justice: the impeachment process. A legislative solution may seem to legislators vastly preferable to high constitutional drama. Graham has warned of \u201cthe beginning of the end of the Trump presidency\u201d if he \u201cgoes after\u201d Mueller. Passing a law to block the firing of Mueller is meant to make the firing less likely and to forestall the \u201cbeginning of the end\u201d launched by an impeachment process.\nThe trouble is that a law on the model of the misbegotten experiment with the independent counsel law is not a good answer. We have been there, done that, and thought better of it: There is no reason to believe that it would work any better the second time around. There is also no cause for Congress to fear or flee reliance on the impeachment power. In the near term, Congress possesses flexibility in the threatened use of the impeachment power to accomplish what needs to be done to stop further Trump attacks on the Department of Justice and the Special Counsel. Members need not be anxious about catapulting the country into a state that is now so often described as \u201ccrisis\u201d or \u201cchaos.\u201d Should these half-measures fail, Congress would have to overcome its anxieties about impeachment and answer the firing of the Special Counsel by acting to remove President Trump from office.\nBegin with the problems with an Independent Counsel-type solution. When Congress decided to let the law die, Democrats and Republicans were both relieved. They had come to a rueful admiration of Justice Scalia\u2019s lone dissent from the Supreme Court\u2019s decision, Morrison v. Olson, upholding the constitutionality of the statute. Scalia\u2019s objections were theoretical\u2014interference with unified president control of the executive function\u2014but also practical. He warned about the political abuse of the law, and he questioned whether the judiciary could come away unscathed from the partisan brawling. His analysis proved prescient on both counts.\nThe majority in Morrison Court did not share Scalia\u2019s worries, but we have the benefit of experience\u2014constitutionally relevant experience\u2014and it does not tell in favor of an encore. As Adrian Vermeule has written here, \u201cThe bipartisan condemnation of the majority opinion, and elevation of Justice Scalia's dissent to canonical status, means that in all likelihood the Court would discard Morrison or distinguish it into oblivion.\u201d So a new independent counsel-type law would face, at best, an uncertain fate in the Court. This constitutional problem may be compounded by such a law\u2019s enactment, in the near term, to protect Bob Mueller by imposing restrictions on the executive in the conduct of an ongoing investigation. With this concern in mind, one commentator has suggested that Congress might have to wait until Mueller is fired to pass a new independent counsel statute pursuant to which a successor could then be appointed to complete the investigation with the new protections. This could be said to be the worst of all worlds: Mueller is gone, his investigation is disrupted, and a constitutionally vulnerable, discredited law goes on the books for only as long as the litigation that is likely to remove it again.\nThe Sessions controversy should also refresh appreciation of one of the dangers of reviving Independent Counsel approach. In the midst of tensions over the independence of the law enforcement function, the enactment of a new independent counsel law would introduce new and perverse incentives for future presidents to worry\u2014as Trump has, more openly than any of his predecessors\u2014about an Attorney General\u2019s political reliability. For the Attorney Generals who are chosen, the shift from a protected Special Counsel to one who is much more institutionally \u201cindependent\u201d will add to the pressure to choose these Counsels with the utmost political care. It is hard to judge how much of a difference these considerations will make in any Administration. For many, this difference may be marginal. For those we would worry most about, it may be substantial.\nRather than reviving some version of the largely discredited independent counselstatute, Congress should exercise strong oversight while leaving no doubt about the readiness to move as necessary to impeachment. For the moment, in the last few days, an informal \u201coversight\u201d process seems to be having salutary effects. The Chairman of the Judiciary Committee tweeted out that \u201ceveryone in DC\u201d should know that there was no room on the 2017 Committee agenda for an Attorney General confirmation process. The Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell and other senior Republicans spoke clearly against the hectoring of the attorney general and in support of Robert Mueller. Graham made his strong statement about the doom awaiting this administration if the president fires Mueller.\nThis oversight activity does not have to continue informally but can be heated up and brought closer to the impeachment process. It is not hard to imagine a hearing into the effects of the president\u2019s behavior on the Department of Justice. Senior officials could be called to testify about the impact on Department morale and regular order in the conduct of its operations. They might be questioned about any White House contacts outside the contacts policy, or even contacts consistent with the policy that would give grounds for concern. Testimony could be taken on the reasons for the well-established understandings of the relationship of president and DOJ in the administration of the law enforcement function. This is another way that the Hill can get its message across to Mr. Trump that the firing of Sessions, or that of Mueller, could bring an end to the Trump government.\nAnd the message should be be clearer even than Graham\u2019s: If the President fires Mueller, Congress will institute impeachment proceedings. Scalia in his Morrison dissent did not dispute that the a President who exercised his power to terminate an investigation into his own conduct could face impeachment. Indeed he was making precisely and correctly the point that impeachment was the constitutionally prescribed judgment that Congress could pass on presidential obstruction. Passing an independent counsel-type statute is an evasion of Congress\u2019s constitutional responsibility to confront clear-cut evidence of impeachable conduct\u2014either by acting to impeach, or by threatening impeachment and meaning it.\nThe meretricious appeal of a legislative \u201cfix\u201d derives from the belief that impeachments must be reserved for extraordinary cases. But there is nothing extraordinary about the threat of impeachment as a response to a President who fired the FBI Director out of frustration over the Russia investigation, and who has since openly considered further dismissals to weed out senior law enforcement officials he deems complicit in his legal troubles (Sessions) or actively causing them (Mueller). This is not all. There is other evidence of corrupt administration of the Department of Justice, such as the calls for the investigation of his political opponent, and the demands for \u201cloyalty\u201d from law enforcement officials.\nAll together, the president has engaged in what an experienced student of impeachment has referred to as the heart of an impeachment case: \u201crepeated type of wrongdoing\u201d that is \u201cintended to further his personal political interests rather than any national policy objective.\u201d Even the Wall Street Journal has conceded that this president\u2019s behavior conduct is \u201ccareening toward a historic reputation\u201d that puts him in the disreputable company of Richard Nixon.\nA large part of the problem in the discussion of impeachment is the anxiety about precipitating constitutional \u201ccrisis.\u201d The notion of \u201ccrisis\u201d is misleading, and spreads terror throughout the ranks of elected officials and the press about what it means to speak now about impeachable conduct. It is not a \u201ccrisis\u201d for Congress to warn a president that he may be risking impeachment when he engaged in conduct\u2014a \u201crepeated type of wrongdoing\u201d\u2014 within the range that warrants removal from office. And it is not more of a \u201ccrisis\u201d if a President responsible for impeachable conduct is impeached. \u201cCrisis\u201d more correctly describes the failure of institutions to respond as designed to assaults on the constitutional structure.\nNone of this is to gainsay the political difficulties of dealing with this problem in a young presidency. Mr. Trump is sure to keep defending himself by insisting that he is the victim of a \u201cwitch hunt\u201d that started immediately on his taking office. He will assail his critics as leaders of partisan and Establishment resistance to his 2016 victory. That argument will rapidly lose credibility as Republicans begin to break away on this issue, as they have begin to do. Moreover, as the Watergate experience suggests, confirmed by the early polling in the present situation, the president\u2019s political position within the electorate will erode quickly if he fires Mueller.\nOne other unique aspect of the Trump presidency seems to be feeding into the uncertainties about the triggering of the impeachment process. In Watergate, then again in the case of President Clinton, the issues came slowly to light, having been hidden from view. That\u2019s how scandal is expected to unfold, revelation by revelation, with the president and others seeking to avoid disclosure. Trump, however, has engaged in much of his misconduct out in the open, in tweets and interviews. He told Lester Holt he fired Comey over Russia; he has tweeted his frustration with Sessions for the same reason, and, through the same social media, he has berated his attorney general for failing to institute a criminal investigation of his 2016 political opponent. The behavior is so flagrant and unapologetic that it has been assigned to some special category: Trump\u2019s impulsiveness, inexperience, or plain looniness. And so it may seem sensible that if the president intends with that same child-like impulsiveness to fire Mueller, the answer is just to stop him by passing a law. He is misbehaving, and so we must now administer discipline. The standard for judgment is being drastically lowered.\nThis seems the wrong way to look at Trump\u2019s assault on the norms and rules on which the professionalism and independence of law enforcement depends. His very public misapprehension of his role and authority should be addressed head-on. It is immaterial that his views are those of someone with a radically limited understanding of the Constitution and the government, who seems unable to see the difference between his private interests and those of the public at large. Mr. Trump has said what he said, and done what he has done; and in each instance, more than once. The very flagrancy of this conduct threatens public understanding of basic principles essential to the rule-of-law and maintenance of constitutional regular order. It would be a mistake to assume that the harm threatened by this conduct will end with his term.\nCongress may well judge that it is best to allow the Mueller investigation to run its course and that, as Jack Goldsmith has written, the Department of Justice is holding firm and running properly in adherence to norms and the conscientious performance of its duties. That the president has engaged in impeachable conduct does not mean that the Congress is compelled to institute proceedings now against him. But the Congress can also be clear about what Lindsay Graham surely meant when he said that the firing of Mueller would be \u201cthe beginning of the end of the Trump government.\u201d If President Trump fires Sessions to clear the path to Mueller\u2019s dismissal, or he just goes ahead and dismisses the Special Counsel, the answer is to impeach him.\nCall this an early deliberative stage of an impeachment process\u2014a process which can begin with congressional engagement with the impeachment issues, and need not go all the way. It is a process by which the Congress can begin to warn and educate or inform the president, and it can proceed to more serious stages if the president is prepared to provoke the confrontation. Congress\u2019 use of the impeachment power is far superior to a return to the constitutionally murky, politically disabling conflicts invited by the last Independent Counsel law. Passing a law like this in responding now to Trump is, in constitutional terms, just passing the buck.\nindependent counsel,\nAttorney General Jeff Sessions,\nBob Bauer served as White House Counsel to President Obama.

        "raw_content": "Private investment into sport - what governing bodies need to know\nPublished 04 December 2018 | Authored by: Lydia Zakrzewski, Chris Smith\nTransformational private investment deals in sport are big news not only for the target club or event, but for the sport as a whole and are likely to remain part of the landscape as the industry continues to mature and globalise. Transactions such as the sports investment group Kosmos\u20191, a ground-breaking agreement2 with the International Tennis Federation (ITF) in relation to a 25-year, US$3 billion project to revamp the Davis Cup competition and create an annual season-ending Finals event, involve a wide range of corporate, commercial, financial, sports governance and regulatory issues. Finding a balance between the investor\u2019s commercial interests and the wider sporting and regulatory interests of a governing body is a complex challenge.\nThis article considers the sports sector from a private investor\u2019s perspective, why they are investing more now than ever, and looks at different models for investment. It then examines external investment from the sports\u2019 point of view and considers some common legal and commercial issues that sporting bodies could address in order to make their sports more attractive to external investors. Specifically, it looks at:\nThe sport investment landscape: why and how private investors are investing\nEquity deals\nCreation of \u201cnew generation\u201d events\nLegal and commercial considerations for sports governing bodies seeking investment\nCommercial control vs regulatory independence\nThe necessary balancing act \u2013 relationships, tensions and public perception\nThe ability to identify \u201cassets\u201d\nKey conditions \u2013 early stage considerations and long-term strategy\nSport investment landscape: why and how private investors are investing\nThe \u201cbusiness of sport\u201d has seen a period of unprecedented growth and diversification in recent years. This has been driven by a combination of innovations including greater broadcasting opportunities offered by disruptive digital technology, such as OTT platforms, which enable sports to adapt to the changing viewing habits of their fans and learn more about them in the process, the revolution of sports betting including the legalisation of sports betting in the US3 and the growth of mobile betting applications and websites, the growing popularity of e-sports and the general enhanced branding opportunities available to an increasingly global marketplace.\nThese developments have helped raise the profile of sports themselves and have been instrumental in their evolution from recreational leisure activities to global businesses. Sport is increasingly seen as complimentary to and influential in adjacent markets including healthcare (for example fitness and performance tracking technology), retail, gaming and entertainment, to name a few. In summary, the sports sector has become an attractive option for investors who are not interested in just acquiring \u201ctrophy\u201d assets, but are more interested in realising a sizable return on investment within a growing and increasingly influential sector.\nWe are seeing more and more investments into sport and the methods of investing are also evolving in interesting ways.\nThis is a common form of investment whereby the investor acquires shares in a company operating the target sporting entity in return for its investment. Obvious examples of such equity investments have come in the form of purchases of football and other sports clubs by private owners, with varying degrees of success.\nLess common has been equity investment into an entire sporting competition, such as CVC\u2019s investment into Formula One, which it has subsequently sold to Liberty Media for a large profit4. The success of that investment was in large part due to Formula One being structured in a way that allowed commercial considerations to be at the forefront of the sport\u2019s development; investor friendly corporate structures within sports are explored in the \u201ccommercial control vs regulatory independence\u201d section below. However, investment into a sporting competition or governing body can be more difficult and often controversial when multiple sporting stakeholders are involved; CVC experienced this when it had to revise its offer (from \u00a3275m for a majority share to just over \u00a3200m for a minority share) to run the commercial arm of Premiership Rugby which is owned by its member clubs. Investor-friendly internal structuring of the sport is examined in more detail in below.\nAnother means of investment into sport, and one which has hit the headlines recently, is where the investor buys a specific sporting asset which will generate the return on its investment, such as a sports stadium. Shahid Khan\u2019s \u00a3600 million bid for Wembley5, although failing at the last hurdle, shows an increased appetite for the acquisition of sporting assets by private investors.\nAn interesting development in this area is the rise of \"partnerships\" between the investor and the sporting governing body, such as the aforementioned Kosmos/ITF collaboration in respect of the Davis Cup. Typically, rather than resulting in the investor owning equity in a sporting entity or owning a sporting asset, such collaborations essentially involve contractual arrangements between the investor and the relevant sports body under which certain commercial elements of an event are licensed by the governing body to the investor in return for a fee paid to said governing body. The investor can develop the event to increase revenue generation (for the benefit of the investor), whilst the governing body can use the guaranteed income paid by the investor for the commercial rights to further other key strategic goals for the good of the sport.\nInstead of seeking investment into their established events, some sports are creating innovative new events to attract fresh audiences and to tap into new income streams. In most cases, a new legal entity will be created to own, organise and manage the event and to receive external investment. Structuring a new event in this way can \"ring-fence\" it from the traditional formats of the sport in question and can also make it more attractive to potential investors.\nThe investor can focus its funding and attention on developing the new event and, given that it is likely to be a riskier proposition than established events, it may be able to negotiate a higher level of equity and control over the commercial aspects of the event than would otherwise have been available without this structural separation of the new event from traditional formats of the sport.\nExamples of recent \u201cnew generation\u201d events include:\nthe T10 League, the first internationally approved professional ten-over cricket league launched by a private entity called T10 Sports management and held annually at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the UAE. It\u2019s matches are 10-overs-a-side and the duration of a match is 90 minutes;\nthe Next Generation ATP Finals, created by the Italian Tennis Federation in association with the Italian Olympic Committee as a new ATP tournament featuring the world\u2019s top 21-and-under singles players of the ATP World Tour season. The first five editions of the Tournament will be hosted in Milan, Italy from 2017 to 2021. The competition introduces new rules including shorter sets, no-ad scoring, no lets, electronic line calling and the shot clock;\nthe Hundred, the working title of a proposed professional 100-ball cricket league run by the England and Wales Cricket Board which will offer faster matches with 15 traditional six-ball overs and a single 10-ball over to complete each innings. The league will consist of eight city-based franchise teams, each of which will field both a men's and women's team; and\nthe International Swimming League (ISL), a four-day event in association with the Italian Swimming Federation which was to feature eight international clubs each made up of 12 male and 12 female swimmers to take place in Turin, Italy in December 2018. They would have competed over two days of races across all swimming events in a short course pool before the four teams to have gained the most points progress to a grand final over the following two days. Citing short notice, the International Swimming Federation (FINA) did not approve the event and threatened to impose sanctions resulting in the event being cancelled. However, despite this, ISL has outlined plans to run a full series of events from late 2019 which have been warmly welcomed by the athletes within the sport6.\nFrom an investment perspective these new format events, which attract new and younger fans, often have shorter, more intense matches and allow for a greater number of commercial breaks, can be seen as having increased revenue generating potential. From the sports governing bodies\u2019 perspective, creating such new events allows the traditions of their sports to be protected from the investor\u2019s influence and so lessens the risk that fans will view that investment as a \"sell-out\" of the sport as a whole.\nInvestments into and collaborations with sports governing bodies are on the rise. However, every sporting body is different and the ease with which investment can be injected into a sport or sporting event will largely depend on the internal structuring of the sport itself.\nFor private investors, the degree of control is fundamental. However, on the whole, sports governing bodies are extremely reluctant to cede any control over their sport, citing their responsibility to maintain the sport\u2019s integrity and traditions. Where a sport has separated its commercial rights from its governance structure, it should be easier for an investor to exploit those commercial aspects to generate its financial returns whilst the governing body preserves its independence over how the sport itself is governed and played.\nAs mentioned, the pioneer and prime example of this structural separation is Formula One \u2013 the sport is governed by the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Internationale de l'Automobile but a completely separate entity owns, controls, promotes and exploits the sport\u2019s commercial rights (Formula One Group). This made it perfectly suited for external investment firstly by CVC and latterly by Liberty Media. However, for those sports considering following this model, it is important to weigh up the benefits of attracting investors with a commercial focus against the impact and influence they will have on the sport, its traditions and accessibility.\nComplications arise where the target sporting entity is owned by a collection of clubs or unions whose objectives are more sporting than commercial, particularly if their interests are not entirely aligned. Premiership Rugby\u2019s recent rejection of CVC\u2019s takeover bid is an example of how difficult it is to reach an agreement when multiple parties are involved, particularly if a super-majority or unanimous vote is required to effect such fundamental change. It is therefore important to consider internal restructuring to make a sport a more investor-friendly model if the sport is contemplating external investment.\nIt\u2019s a balancing act \u2013 relationships, tensions and public perception\nBefore accepting investment for a specific event or a series, it is important to consider the politics and current calendar of the target sport. FIFA\u2019s president, Gianni Infantino, recently proposed an investor-fuelled, revamped football Club World Cup featuring top clubs internationally7. This event would have been in direct competition for teams, audiences and revenue with the Champions League and resulted in a negative reaction from UEFA (European football\u2019s governing body and the organiser of the Champions League). Due to the opposition, Infantino\u2019s proposed event is currently going through a consultation process which will explore the merits of the new formats in more detail and will be presented at the next FIFA council meeting in March 20198. Regardless of the outcome of the consultation, this sort of public conflict may be damaging and may deter future investors, participants and audiences alike.\nThere is an important balance to be struck here. Those sporting entities considering accepting external investment must not be overly influenced by the potential commercial gain, and should fully consider the position of the proposed event or series within the current calendar and the effect that the investment will have on the sport as a whole. With so much at stake, it is advantageous to have the support of the sport\u2019s governing body to encourage coexistence and positive publicity.\nAbility to identify \u201cassets\u201d\nIn an investment scenario, the sports organisation must be able to clearly identify and evidence the ownership of the assets being licensed, sold or transferred. Being able to demonstrate a clear chain of ownership is particularly important, and investors will often carry out substantial due diligence to ensure that the assets they are acquiring an interest in belong to the sports body that they are contracting with. Those assets might include, for example:\nintellectual property (e.g. key trade marks);\nsponsorship rights;\nhosting rights; and\nmedia / broadcast rights.\nAny agreement for the sale, license or other exploitation of assets or rights in a sport or event must clearly identify each of those assets or rights being sold or licenced to the investor by the sporting body, and what the investor can do with those assets or rights (including any restrictions). This should ensure that the investor is clear from the outset as to the rights it is acquiring and should avoid future disputes as to the parties\u2019 respective rights to control and exploit aspects of the sport in question.\nThe parties to any form of investment transaction in the sports sphere will need to be very clear on the key terms and conditions of the deal and, in a partnership scenario, will need to develop guiding principles (which will assist in fostering a successful relationship between the parties) at an early stage. Key issues, terms and other conditions to be negotiated will include:\nthe fees / price payable for the property / assets / rights;\nthe rights granted (if any) by the sports body;\nthe key performance indicators (if applicable);\nthe obligations placed on both parties (which can be substantial and wide-ranging);\nthe way in which the property / rights may be exploited;\nwarranties (and indemnities) provided by both parties; and\nevolution, exit procedures (discussed below) and sport-specific requirements.\nThe parties will often have differing priorities, as noted above. From a sports organisation\u2019s perspective, the protection of the image, reputation, integrity and regulation of the sport will be paramount whereas the investor will be primarily focused on maximising profits and seeking control over assets / rights. Having said this, there is likely to be a high level of collaboration between the parties with the overall aim of promoting the sport which will in turn protect the investment.\nIn a partnership arrangement, it will also be necessary to negotiate and put in place policies, procedures and structures (e.g. steering committees) to oversee the management, implementation and evolution of the venture. The parties will want to ensure they are fairly represented and procedures are in place for resolving inevitable differences of opinion and conflicts of interest etc.\nOne of the key elements in any sports investment will be the provisions surrounding the \"exit\" of the investor. Both parties will want to ensure they are adequately protected in this regard, either on termination of a partnership or, potentially, the sale of the investor\u2019s interest. The sports body in particular will want to maintain a strong position to ensure it is able to take over and continue to run an event or competition when its agreement with an investor comes to an end, for example.\nFurther, in circumstances where an investor wishes to sell its interest to a third party, the sports body will usually seek approval rights over any potential new owner of the assets, and may also request a veto right in relation to a proposed sale of the investor\u2019s interest to certain third parties (e.g. parties which the governing body may consider to be inappropriate from a stakeholder / political perspective and/or parties whose involvement might comprise, or be seen to comprise, a conflict of interests). Further, the sports body might seek to share in the \u201cupside\u201d of any sale of the investor\u2019s interest.\nFinally, where an investment is structured as a partnership, it must include an exit plan which will contain detailed terms to ensure that when that partnership comes to an end or is terminated:\nthere is a smooth transition of the rights and assets (and/or event) back to the sports body; and\nthe responsibilities of both parties (e.g. in relation to the transfer of intellectual property, data, documentation, other information (such as commercial and sponsorship information) and the provision of support etc.) are clearly set out.\nIn 2016, KPMG estimated that the global sports industry was worth in the region of $600bn and $700bn9, a value which has continued to grow at a rapid rate year on year. The opportunities to invest in sport and the potential returns on such investment have also increased and have in turn led to new market entrants and an appetite to engage with, and exploit opportunities in, the sports industry.\nThis increase in investment activity in sport has meant sports governing bodies and other organisations in the sports sphere are having to adapt and think carefully about their role and the position of their sport in the \"market\". There are many new opportunities for sporting bodies to improve the commercial value of their sport whilst also ensuring that their sporting traditions are preserved and their governance structure remains independent.\nThe tensions and competing interests that exist in various scenarios and structures for investment in sport, and the legal and commercial issues that arise between the parties involved, can be wide-ranging and difficult to reconcile. Identifying the key concerns of each party, clarifying exactly how certain assets will be exploited commercially, and negotiating appropriate terms becomes particularly important in such circumstances.\n1 Kosmos is a company founded and chaired by professional footballer Gerard Piqu\u00e9, which has the support of Hiroshi Mikitani, Chairman and CEO of Rakuten, the Tokyo-based e-commerce company.

        "raw_content": "As summer vacation is approaching, I'm wanting to know of a schedule/routine that would be good for my 3 year old to keep him learning like he is in preschool.\nPreschool schedules will vary depending on the type of preschool you choose. Most preschools follow a routine that provides structure and predictably, while programming in plenty of time for free play and independent discovery. A somewhat typical day at preschool might involve 15-20 minutes of free play while the students arrive. Then, the teacher will usually call everyone together for \"circle time.\" The first circle of the day often involves a song, the calendar, daily weather, and a brief overview of the concepts (letters, shapes, numbers, etc.) that the teacher plans to cover that day. There may be an appropriate \"theme\" to the activities for the day or week, such as \"the ocean,\" \"summertime,\" or \"barnyard animals.\" After circle time, the children will usually go to different centers (such as play dough, puzzles, games). The teacher may cycle each child through every center or give the children a choice of activities. Often, this is also an opportunity for the teacher to work with small groups on the craft or science experiment of the day. The rest of the day is usually filled with story time, art time, and music and movement time. Usually there is another period of free play, which may be outdoors if the weather allows. Throughout the day, preschoolers need to use their listening skills and contribute to keeping the classroom neat by putting away toys and supplies. Depending on the length of the day, there will also be time for snack and/or lunch and possibly nap time. While educational philosophies differ, most early childhood education experts emphasize that young children learn best through play and hands-on activities. The summer is also a wonderful time to take educational field trips to local farms, museums, aquariums, zoos, and more. Keep in mind that preschool also offers an opportunity for social learning. Free library programs and trips to the playground give children the opportunity to practice listening to directions, sharing, and being friendly.",

        "raw_content": "We are going to look at some drunk driving facts and statistics on drunk driving. Everyone knows that drunk driving is a bad thing, but many people do not realize the full scope of the problem. It\u2019s important to understand that drunk driving is a wide-spread, far-reaching problem, and that it will likely touch all us at some point in our lives.\nHere are Some Drunk Driving Facts to Consider\nIn 2006, there were 16,005 fatalities in the U.S. alone from alcohol-related car crashes.\nSomeone is killed by a drunk driver every 39 minutes.\nSomeone is injured in an alcohol-related crash nearly every minute.\nThree out of every ten Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some point during their lifetime.\nA 2002 survey estimated that Americans took more than 159 million alcohol-impaired driving trips in the past year.\nIn 2006, 1.46 million drivers were arrested for driving while intoxicated.\nIn a 2002 study, 3% of Americans age 18-20 (below the legal age for purchasing and drinking alcohol) admitted to driving while under the influence.\nEight teens die every day in alcohol-related crashes.\nAlcohol-related crashes cost the U.S. an average of $114 billion annually.\nDo these statistics on drunk driving surprise you? They surprised us. Do they scare you? They should.\nWhat Can Be Done About the Problem?\nEveryone wants these statistics on drunk driving to improve. What can be done about these drunk driving facts, though?\nThere are many options available for improving statistics on drunk driving, some of which are already in place. Since 1980, alcohol-related fatalities have decreased by about 40%. Clearly what is being done is working. Yet, as you can see from the drunk driving facts listed above, there is much more to be done.\nMany states have laws mandating jail time even for first offenses of driving while intoxicated. They may also require alcohol education programs or treatment programs. They usually suspend the driver\u2019s license of offenders. They may also impound the cars of offenders. Laws are also cracking down on underage drinkers.\nWhile there are things law enforcement can do to improve statistics on drunk driving, there are things we can do as individuals, as well. Here are some simple measures you can take to help prevent drunk driving.\nNever drive while under the influence. Even one drink can impair your ability to drive safely. It takes about an hour for your body to eliminate the alcohol from one drink, so wait at least an hour for each drink you\u2019ve had before you even consider getting behind the wheel.\nIf you go out to drink with friends, select a designated driver who will abstain from alcohol. Or take a turn at being the designated driver yourself.\nIf friends are too drunk to drive, take their car keys. Have you heard the saying, \u201cFriends don\u2019t let friends drive drunk?\u201d Instead, help your friend find a safe ride home. Or, invite them to stay with you for the night.\nReport drunk drivers. If you are on the road and see a driver that appears drunk, call the police and report it. Signs that a driver may be intoxicated include weaving, straddling the center line, tailgating, making wide turns, driving too slowly, driving with windows down in cold weather, and forgetting to turn on headlights.\nKeep these drunk driving facts in mind, and share them with others. Make sure to share these prevention tips, as well.\nMore than drunk driving facts on our consequences of drunk driving page",

        "raw_content": "Mulhare impresses in Cork\nA fantastic run by Portlaoise athlete Michael Mulhare saw him finish second in a high quality field at the Cork City Sports last week.\nCompeting over 3000 metres, Mulhare was up against a high quality field which included Olympians Collis Birmingham of Australia, who will compete in the 5000 metres event at the upcoming games, and Juan van Deventer, who represented South Africa in the Beijing games, along with the highly talented Jake Robertson of New Zealand and Gebremariam Tigabu of Ethiopia. Closer to home, the toughest Irish challenge was to be provided by Michael\u2019s older brother Dan.\nMichael signalled his intentions early on as he was always to the fore of the group, following pacemaker Billy Ryan. A downpour after just one lap and an opening kilometre of just 2:43 meant the field was still tightly packed and fast times were looking unlikely. A 2:44 second kilometre kept things as they were as the pacemaker left the track.\nThe Ethiopian, Tigabu, took the pace for a short while but was closely tracked by Collis Birmingham who took the lead with two laps to go and showed his class in opening the race right up. Tigabu gave chase with a gap opening up to the rest of the field. Michael looked strong in 4th but Dan was starting to feel the effects of the increase in pace.\nWith 300 metres to go, Michael started his finishing kick and moved clear of the Ethiopian and Jonathan Taylor of Great Britain and into second place. While Birmingham was coasting to victory ahead, Michael was putting in a very strong run around the final bend which he held onto to the finish. Birmingham\u2019s winning time was 7:55.31 while Michael crossed the line in 8:02.62, just outside his personal best despite the cautious start. Taylor finished 3rd with Tigabu 4th, both running 8:03. Dan Mulhare finished 8th in 8:10.84.\nSpeaking after the race Michael said he was \u201cdelighted\u201d with his performance. \u201cI thought if I could run about 8:10 it would be good. Mentally, I had finished the season ten days ago after nationals. I wanted to get the race out of the way and take my break.\u201d\nWhen asked would he be tempted to continue his season after such a good performance, Mulhare insisted he would end his season on a high and prepare instead for the cross country season which he will be doing in the unfamiliar environment of Iona College, New York where he has been offered an athletics scholarship as he pursues a Masters degree.\nAsked about the upcoming move, Mulhare said \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to the change of scenery and having good training partners. I aim to match the top Iona guys at the NCAA championships and then make the Irish team for the European championships.\u201d\nOther Laois athletes in action were Paul Byrne of St Abban\u2019s who was 7th in a 400 metre hurdles race, where the three podium spots were occupied by Olympians, and Mary Mulhare who finished 11th in a high quality women\u2019s 3000 metre race which included Irish Olympian Stephanie Reilly.\nDavid Mulhare finished 12th in the junior mile which was won by national senior 800 metre champion Dean Cronin of Blarney Inniscarra AC.",

This park, about 3 hours north of Banff, is reached by traveling the fabulous Icefields Parkway. I had high hopes for my first visit there, and on the first day, the weather was great. After checking into the hotel, we headed out for a hike around Lake Edith (shown in this image). The late afternoon sun shed some great light on the mountains, and the trees' long shadows added some nice foreground interest. Across the lake, there is a small beach where people can relax and have a nice cold swim. Having enjoyed Day 1, Mother Nature had other plans and it rained for the next few days.

The flats, which are managed by District Homes, are helping us meet our commitment to rehouse homeless families in, or close to, the borough and their family support networks.\nSince we started to use these flats, we have been made aware of several issues with the properties. We have listened to these concerns and observed some of the problems during joint inspections with the LRU, local councillors and District Homes. We have since been pressing District Homes and the owners of Eros House to take action to fix the issues that have been raised.\nConditions in Eros House\nThe condition of the communal areas, including damp patches on the walls, has been unacceptable. We welcome the commitment made by the owners of Eros House to address this problem, both by carrying out remedial works and fixing the underlying cause in the roof of the building. We will monitor progress of these works to make sure all repairs are completed satisfactorily.\nEveryone deserves to be comfortable and safe in their own home and we have been assured by District Homes that every property offered to the Council to lease for temporary accommodation is fitted with heaters that are both health and safety compliant and suit the size of the accommodation.\nDistrict Homes is also:\nreplacing heaters when they break down with more efficient economy 7 heaters or equivalent \u2013 this programme will continue until all flats have been refitted\ngiving advice to residents about how they can reduce the risk of condensation\ninstalling mechanical ventilation where necessary.\nWe were concerned to hear about a number of incidents of illegal access to the communal areas. As a result of this, the owners of Eros House are now providing 24-hour security for the building.\nWe have enjoyed a constructive relationship with the LRU, including a number of joint inspections that have led to many repairs, and we hope this continues into the future.\nCouncillor Paul Bell, Cabinet Member for Housing, said, \u2018There are still problems in Eros House. This is not a council building and I\u2019ve said that I want to hear from residents. I\u2019ve offered to do a walk around to cross reference what we are being told by the agent and what the reality is on the ground. The Rushey Green ward councillors have already done a lot of work for residents.\n\u2018The Council is working to help create a Private Renters\u2019 Union, as there is a lot of very poor practice creating misery for private renters. We are committed to doing whatever we can to support tenants and good landlords.\u2019",

The professional guidelines say you should do no more than 250 in a year. If you do more than 325, you can\u2019t get certified. So this is way beyond what anyone has ever done before. And so there\u2019s just \u2026 With this guy there was just some quality issues and there\u2019s just no possible way you can [00:01:30] do that many autopsies and do them the way that they ought to be done.\nOne top of that then, there were lots of other problems with the testimony that he gave in court. Basically, it was a system that was set up for someone to dominate who could appease the prosecutors, sheriffs, the elected coroners, police chiefs. And so the Cadaver King is Dr. Hayne, and he basically dominated the autopsy and death investigation system down there in Mississippi and parts of Louisiana for the better part of two decades.\nTrevor Burrus: [00:02:00] And the country dentist.\nTucker C.: The country dentist is a colleague of Dr. West, excuse me, of Dr. Hayne\u2019s, by the name of Michael West, who was a clinical dentist in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, South Mississippi, and also a coroner for Forest County, which is the county of which Hattiesburg is the county seat. And at some point in the late 80s, early 90s, he and Dr. Hayne crossed paths and became friends. And Dr. West had [00:02:30] an interest in, and some professional experience in the discipline of bite mark matching, specifically matching alleged bite marks, often on victims, with the dentition of a suspect in an assault, or generally a murder case. They started working together and essentially solving cases, difficult cases, often, as I said, homicide cases.\nOver that period of time that Radley mentioned, this two decade period, roughly, Dr. West [00:03:00] not only sort of pushed that particular discipline to its outermost limits, he invented aspects of the discipline that he named after himself. But he also became an expert in other disciplines to mark matching disciplines, video enhancement, fingernail scratch matching. The list goes on. But they were colleagues. They worked together both in the morgue, and then they frequently testified together in trials in Mississippi.\nTrevor Burrus: Now I\u2019ve seen [00:03:30] my fair share of CSI, and if it\u2019s at all accurate, then this stuff is real science. This is actual. I mean, it\u2019s true that your teeth are unique. Right? So wouldn\u2019t a bite mark be unique, at least in theory? It doesn\u2019t sound totally ridiculous. Or maybe I\u2019m wrong, maybe it\u2019s totally ridiculous.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. So bite mark matching in particular rests on two underlying premises. The first is that all of our \u2026 We all have unique dentition. Our bite, the pattern we make when we bite something is unique to us [00:04:00] and to no one else. And there\u2019s just no science to back that up. But in fact, the science that has been done, the actually scientific research that has been done suggests that it isn\u2019t true. The second is that human skin is capable of recording that uniqueness in a way, and preserving it in a way that\u2019s useful, that\u2019s useful for identifying people.\nWell, the first premise isn\u2019t even true. But if it were, human skin \u2026 The second premise is even less true. Our skin is fungible. It\u2019s malleable. [00:04:30] It\u2019s rubbery. Depending on how you\u2019re bitten, whether it\u2019s an overbite or an underbite, whether the victim is sort of pulling away so the teeth are dragging through the skin instead of into it, what happens to the body afterward. In the case that we write about in the book, one of the two cases, two main cases, the little girl who was murdered, her body was submerged in water for hours and then it was embalmed.\nSo Dr. West and other bite [00:05:00] mark experts claim that they can find these really minute intricate details in a bite in skin, including what West calls bunching, which is this idea that when you bite down into human skin, these tiny little crevices in the back of your teeth sort of collect skin and push it down, that somehow that can be preserved by human skin. No only can that be preserved by human skin, but he can then take an impression of your teeth and find the crevices that match to the bunching in the [00:05:30] bite mark. It\u2019s all absurd. There\u2019s nothing about it that suggests that you can record and match details down to that level.\nThe CSI thing is interesting because a lot of the people who complain about what they call the CSI effect are usually prosecutors more than defense attorneys. What prosecutors complain about is that shows like CSI condition jurors to want experts to give them sort of matter of fact conclusions. When you have an actual scientist [00:06:00] on the witness stand, they tend to speak in probabilities. They tend to kind of hedge what they say. They don\u2019t say, \u201cThis person did it,\u201d as Dr. West would often say, \u201cIndeed and without a doubt.\u201d They speak much more, with a lot more caution. And jurors don\u2019t like that. Jurors like certainty. And so when you get somebody like Dr. West, who is willing to speak with that kind of certainty, they can do a lot of damage.\nTrevor Burrus: How is the relationship? You kind of mentioned it with the prosecutor and the police. And we could talk about the Levon Brooks [00:06:30] case or the Kennedy Brewer case, the two you write about. But why are the forensic investigators, like Dr. West, or their coroners, medical examiners like Dr. Hayne, how do they get pushed toward the suspects that are identified by the cops? Because there were a bunch of suspects in these cases, but suddenly they got pushed to the ones that they were focusing on.\nTucker C.: That\u2019s a good question, and I think it\u2019s a difficult one to answer with a single answer because it depends on the individual facts [00:07:00] of the cases. But in many, if not most of the cases that I\u2019ve been dealing with and that we write about in the book, the suspect, the main suspect, in one way or another, was clearly made known to either Dr. West or Dr. Hayne. There was no effort to disguise, to sort of keep Dr. West blind, or Dr. Hayne [00:07:30] blind, to who it was. You can see it in reports. They often knew who the main suspect was.\nAnd so Dr. West frequently said, \u201cI\u2019ve exonerated many more people than I\u2019ve ever included.\u201d And if you go back and actually unpack that statement in the Levon Brooks case for example, there were a number of suspects, 12, or 13, 14, something like that. But he knew who the main suspect was, Levon Brooks. [00:08:00] And so his \u201cexonerating\u201d the other 12 or 13 really sort of didn\u2019t amount to much because he knew who the main suspect was, and that was who he matched the teeth to. One case we write about in the book, which I this is illustrative, is this serial murder case in Florida, that early on in Dr. West\u2019s career, he went over to Tallahassee. Is that right, Radley? Is that where it was?\nRadley Balko: Gainesville.\nTucker C.: Gainesville, sorry. And was asked to sort of work his magic there. [00:08:30] And he ended up coming out empty handed. And in the book, I think what we say, what we believe is that the reason he came out empty handed is because that was a case where they hadn\u2019t arrested anybody and they really didn\u2019t have any idea who this, ended up being a serial murderer, was. So there was no way, either advertent-ly or inadvertently, for the police to give West a name. They didn\u2019t have anybody. And so after a week or so of investigation and his work in his forensics, he [00:09:00] had nothing to offer. But I think it stands in sort of counterpoint to these other cases where he did know the main suspect. And sure enough, ratified the police\u2019s hunches.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. I would just add, in the Levon Brooks case, one of the people that West exonerated was the person who actually committed the crime. He was one of the original suspects. But by the time he was send to West to take dental molds of his teeth, the police had already focused on Brooks, and so West was able to clear this guy. [00:09:30] And he actually probably should have cleared him anyway because the bites on the little girl weren\u2019t actually human bit marks. They were mostly likely insect bites.\nTrevor Burrus: Yeah. That\u2019s the thing that shocks me in a lot of these cases. I\u2019m a little surprised at how often, apparently, people bite who they\u2019re assaulting, especially in East Mississippi. It\u2019s a disproportionate amount of people biting.\nRadley Balko: That\u2019s actually in one of the earlier versions of the book, one of the chapter titles was something like, An Epidemic of-\nTrevor Burrus: Biting [00:10:00] criminals.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. Aggravated biting, because suddenly West appears in Mississippi and now everybody\u2019s biting each other. It\u2019s a miraculous sort of coincidence.\nTrevor Burrus: You write in the book that the entire system that helped convict Brooks and Brewer and other untold people is part of a \u201cstructural racism built into the criminal justice system.\u201d A lot of people, especially conservatives, balk at that, even the term structural racism because they don\u2019t \u2026 I think it seems [00:10:30] almost too conspiratorial that there\u2019s just a bunch of Bull Connors walking around and being like, \u201cLet\u2019s get those guys.\u201d But you mean something a little bit more long standing and almost insidious in its own way.\nRadley Balko: Right. I think the thing about structural, I think it\u2019s a misunderstood term. There are a couple conservative criminologists, which there aren\u2019t many of, wrote a law review article a while back that said that they don\u2019t buy structural racism because it implies that everybody in the criminal justice system is racist, and that\u2019s just not [00:11:00] believable. Well, that\u2019s actually not what structural racism is. Structural racism is the idea that the system itself, that the architecture of the system, the structure of the system, is racist. And if you think about when a lot of our institutions were built and when they were honed and when they were refined, staring in the Jim Crow era. And they were build specific for a very specific purpose, which was, this is a very popular term now, but it was certainly true then, to uphold white supremacy. And that\u2019s certainly the case with the death investigation system.\nAnd so in the book, we go back into the civil rights era, the Jim Crow era, [00:11:30] and we talk about how the death investigation system was used to cover up lynchings, to sweep them under the table, how it was used to basically facilitate the inability to prosecute people for civil right assassinations. And so the context for structural racism is that you can actually have a system that is structurally racist even if none of the people in that system are personally bigoted or personally racist. It\u2019s that architecture, that lingering architecture, that causes the [00:12:00] problem.\nTucker C.: That was one of the things that was really fascinating to me when these cases first happened, and my office came in late. We had just opened, basically. The Innocence Project in New York had done not only all the groundwork, but basically all the legal work to get these folks exonerated. And I was very interested in the cases even after the exonerations. And I won\u2019t go into the weeds too far, but one of the things I looked into was the jury composition. And [00:12:30] the jurors were a mix of blacks and white folks. And this is a part of Mississippi, which was super isolated. It doesn\u2019t get a lot of publicity when you talk about the civil rights era. But it was rough. It was rough on black folks down there. I remember there was, if memory serves, there was a 90 year old African American woman on, I think it was Kennedy Brewers jury. She was deceased by the time I got involved in the case. But I assume, [00:13:00] I could be wrong, but I assume that her journey to get on that jury was an extraordinary journey for an African American woman.\nTrevor Burrus: Absolutely, yeah.\nTucker C.: And I can\u2019t imagine that she was racist. I\u2019m making some assumptions, but I think they\u2019re safe. And likewise, there were some white folks on there, a couple of whom we know, who are not racist at all. And yet, the verdict in that case within the criminal justice [00:13:30] system was as bad, one could argue, or as we sort of sometimes say, worse even, because it was condoned by \u2026 This wasn\u2019t a lynching that took place outside in the dead of night. All of this took place inside of a courtroom with judges, African American lawyers, African American jurors, African American law enforcement. And you end up, however, with the same sort of baseline injustice. I think that\u2019s what Radley-\nRadley Balko: And let\u2019s talk to the \u2026 I mean, [00:14:00] the victims in this case weren\u2019t just Levon and Kennedy. If the system had gotten the right person the first time around, we probably could\u2019ve prevented the rape and murder of the second little girl, who was also black. The problem with the system is, it\u2019s pliable. It\u2019s malleable to the people who are in power. It serves them. And it serves them whether it\u2019s a backwater racist sheriff, like a Bull Connor type. It serves them if it\u2019s just an aggressive prosecutor who wants [00:14:30] his hunches confirmed, or just doesn\u2019t really want to do the groundwork, or has tunnel vision. Either way. But the victims, again, tend to be low income people and tend to be disproportionately black.\nTrevor Burrus: It seems that Mississippi\u2019s death investigation system was particularly problematic for a very long time. I think it was until 1986, I think is the year, coroner\u2019s still had to round up livestock, which says something about the history of that office. But [00:15:00] there weren\u2019t many requirements for coroners. And you have a stat that in 1977, nearly half of reported deaths were attributed to unknown causes, which seems like a bad way of discovering murder. But cops might like it because it seems like your murder rate is pretty low, which it kind of goes into the feedback mechanisms there.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. This is the thing. It was an antiquated system. And again, it was designed to keep the people in power happy. Now whether that means you keep your unsolved case rate low by [00:15:30] just not finding as many murders, so there are fewer murders to solve. Or if it means finding murders and getting the people that immediately sort of suspect-\nTucker C.: Closure rate.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. The closure rate, right. Again, none of those outcomes are about justice. None of those outcomes are about promoting and protecting public safety. They\u2019re about making sure that the people who hold the right offices are sort of content with the system.\nTrevor Burrus: As you alluded to at the beginning, Radley, [00:16:00] the vacuum essentially that was created by the inadequate death investigation system in Mississippi was filled by Steven Hayne, seemingly. But he had a bunch of fans in the judicial, prosecutorial, and police worlds because he got their man. Is that a fair assessment?\nRadley Balko: Or wouldn\u2019t get their man. There\u2019s a case that didn\u2019t make the book that I talk about quite frequently it seems. But this was in Sunflower County. It\u2019s an elderly woman who was found, [00:16:30] poor, low income, black, elderly woman was found in her home with blood all over the walls. The neighbor had seen somebody running from the house with a blooding T-shirt. And Hayne determined that she died of a stroke. And her family sent the body to a coroner, or a medical examiner, in Alabama, who basically determined that she had been murdered. It\u2019s about getting the right guy, but in some cases it\u2019s about if the person isn\u2019t deemed all that important, and prosecutor, local sheriff, police department, doesn\u2019t want to deal with it. Sometimes the system [00:17:00] could make cases go away as well.\nBut we talked about this in the book. If it wasn\u2019t Hayne, it would\u2019ve been somebody else. The system was designed \u2026 This is the libertarian podcast. I\u2019ll point out, this was basically a privatized system that was just a privatized system where the incentives were misaligned, deliberately so. But they were aligned in a way that the incentive was for the medical examiner to tell prosecutors and police what they wanted to hear instead of telling them what they needed to hear.\nTucker C.: Yeah. I think one other quick point [00:17:30] is that he was the only game in town. The medical examiner\u2019s office was vacant, separate and apart from whatever the motivation may have been for prosecutors. Say if they had a homicide in their district that they needed to prosecute, Dr. Hayne was the person they needed. He was the only person that was doing the autopsies. He was the pathologist. I\u2019ve had prosecutors say to me, \u201cLook, I understand what you\u2019re saying. There were these cases, but you have to understand [00:18:00] my position too, which was, I had to prosecute these cases and that was the only option I had because the state had not fulfilled its obligation to staff up the medical examiner\u2019s office for two decades.\u201d\nRadley Balko: And again, this was about making everybody in power happy, so by not funding the office, the legislature\u2019s happy because they can use that money for other things. They don\u2019t have to budget for a state medical examiner, which should\u2019ve been making $100,000, $150,000 a year, plus had a couple of assistants and a fully staffed office. [00:18:30] The legislature doesn\u2019t have to fund that. Instead what was happening is the counties were paying for each individual autopsy, which ended up costing the state more as a whole. But because it was being done in this kind of localized way that costs were more sort of diffused across the state, it was harder to tell exactly how much the State of Mississippi was paying.\nTrevor Burrus: Now, Dr. Hayne and Dr. West are doctors. They do have training, certification, I would assume. There are forensic boards [00:19:00] and there are forensic societies. Did they get certified by these associations?\nTucker C.: I\u2019ll talk about Dr. West first. Yes, he was certified by The American Board of Forensic Odontology. In fact, he was a diplomate, so he was sort of in the upper echelon, as it were, of this organization. One of the fascinating \u2026 And he was for years. He ultimately got sanctioned and resigned from that organization. But one of the interesting things that happened in the early [00:19:30] 2000s, this is a long story that I\u2019ll make short, is that he was retained to look into a case and to see whether or not he could match a dentition to a photograph from an actual \u2026 It was an actual bite mark from-\nTrevor Burrus: That just seems absurd, matching it to a photograph. It even compounds everything you said about skin.\nRadley Balko: Right.\nTrevor Burrus: Now match teeth to a photograph of skin. But, continue.\nTucker C.: Well, what was interesting about it was he in fact made the match. And two things, [00:20:00] one is the dentition was from a random person. It had nothing whatsoever to do with the bite mark in the photograph.\nRadley Balko: It was a sting operation, basically.\nTucker C.: Yeah. And so he was wrong. It\u2019s about a 22 minute. He videotaped. It\u2019s about a 22 minute videotape and it\u2019s impressive. And he followed the then existing best practices that were set out by The American Board of Forensic Odontology. So strictly speaking, he did nothing sort of scientifically, and I\u2019m making quotation air [00:20:30] quotes on the radio, but he followed procedures and ended up being, he couldn\u2019t have been more wrong. That\u2019s fascinating. It\u2019s such a window into the unsound aspects of the discipline. People knew about this, and yet he continued. He did too, obviously. He continued to testify for years afterwards, even after making that kind of mistake.\nRadley Balko: I\u2019ll talk about Dr. Hayne. Dr. Hayne did have his medical license and was [00:21:00] properly board certified in clinical and anatomical pathology, and so that\u2019s when you are looking at a patient, a dead patient, to see sort of what illness killed them, whether it was cancer, or disease, or a bacterial infection, or whatever. He was not ever properly certified in forensic pathology, which is basically the examining of bodies after death when there\u2019s a crime or some sort of suspicious death due to negligence [00:21:30] or homicide. He took the exam by The American Board of Pathology in forensic pathology, which is what you would do to get properly certified in the late 80s, and failed it. But he claimed for 20 years that he didn\u2019t really fail it so much as walked out in protest because there were questions that he found offensive. One of the questions was, he said, and he could only come up with one when asked, \u201cWhat questions did you find offensive?\u201d And he said it was this question that had asked him to rank colors in order [00:22:00] of their association with death, and he just was furious and just stormed out.\nThere are always problems with that story. One is, I think it cost $1500 to take the test. He had flown to Chicago to take it. The idea that you\u2019re going to walk out over one question is sort of absurd. But The Innocence Project in New York, I believe, eventually got a copy of the test itself, and that question actually never appeared on it. What he did do, though, is over the years he would repeatedly claim in court that he was board certified in forensic pathology. And he would site two [00:22:30] organizations, one of which no longer exists. The other is \u2026 And both of them actually meet this definition or this description, which is, they are sort of certification mills. You give them a resume and a check and they send you your certification. One of them is sort of notoriously clownish, I guess is a good word for it. There was a woman who got her cat certified through this group. There was convicted murderer, [00:23:00] or attempted murderer I guess, who got himself certified from prison. There was a journalism student who got herself certified in forensic, I think it was called forensic medicine at the time.\nThis is a group that has thousands and thousands of members. But it was started by a guy, kind of colorful guy, Robert O\u2019Block, who recently died, but who was a poly sci professor, who\u2019d been fired for plagiarism [00:23:30] and then sort of started his own handwriting analysis group, which then expanded and sort of became this massive organization. But the problem is, it sounded very much like the official organization. So when Hayne would say, \u201cI\u2019m certified by this group,\u201d in court for judges and jurors and prosecutors and even defense lawyers, a lot of the time they didn\u2019t really bother to check to make sure that this is the right organization. And even when they did, even when the defense attorney did bring it up, judges usually just went ahead and said, \u201cOh, it\u2019s fine, because we\u2019ve certified him so many other times before.\u201d\nTrevor Burrus: [00:24:00] That\u2019s the weird thing here. What are judges doing? Aren\u2019t they supposed to keep unscientific evidence out of the court? It seems like none of this stuff would need science. These are all matching. So you mentioned fingernail and bite mark and blood splatter.\nRadley Balko: It\u2019s all subjective.\nTrevor Burrus: It\u2019s all subjective. I use the term Feng shui because it\u2019s kind of like that. Well, this is really good Feng shui, and the next Feng Shui artist is like, \u201cThis is horrible Feng Shui.\u201d And there\u2019s no actual test for that. But what are judges [00:24:30] doing in this situation to determine that this is not science? It\u2019s just a guy\u2019s opinion about this mark on the body, or worse, but at least that.\nTucker C.: That\u2019s a good question too. And I think my answer would be, there\u2019s a host of things that judges are and aren\u2019t doing. One, just to go back to the certification. Certification, in my view, is sort of the bare minimum. You need to be certified, presumably by some governing board. But whether it\u2019s a certification [00:25:00] mill, or whether it\u2019s even a legitimate sort of gold standard, only means so much. You have something you can put on your wall. What you\u2019re testifying to and the basis for that is the critical question, not whether you\u2019re certified. There\u2019s plenty of terrific positions out there. Some are far better than others. They may have gone to the same school. So ultimately, it comes down to sort of: What is the expert saying and what is the basis [00:25:30] for that, the bases for that?\nSo my first answer is, sometimes the certifications seem to be the entr\u00e9e or not for the testimony. If you\u2019re certified, you can testify. The other thing is that, and we discussed this at some length in the book, but I think it\u2019s really interesting. Judges tend often to look at precedent. So rather than engaging in a sort of granular [00:26:00] observation of what this particular expert plans to say and the bases for it, which by the way, is often the job of the advocates, the prosecutor and the defense attorney, to sort of educate the court about this material. The court will just look at the discipline, bite mark for instance, and say, \u201cI don\u2019t know why we\u2019re having this argument. The State of California has admitted bite mark evidence since the late 1970s. And there are 25 other jurisdictions around [00:26:30] the country that have admitted it. Therefore, we\u2019re just wasting our time here. This is admissible.\u201d Which, some level, I think for laypeople, sounds correct. Why are we wasting our judicial resources and et cetera arguing over something that\u2019s been argued in a bunch of jurisdictions before? And they\u2019ve come to this same conclusion.\nWell, it\u2019s not a waste of time because, again, it depends on who the expert is and what the expert is saying. And just because West Virginia or California may have [00:27:00] admitted a certain expert to say a certain thing doesn\u2019t necessarily follow that the State of Mississippi, for example, in this district should allow Dr. West to testify to whatever he\u2019s testifying to. But nonetheless, judges feel safe because they have this precedent that they can rely on. That\u2019s another issue.\nTrevor Burrus: I think you used the term judicial echo chamber in the book. When did it start? Was a bite mark, is there a sort of point zero? You talk about Salem witch trials in the book. But in terms of modern bite mark analysis, [00:27:30] is there a point zero and then everything just \u2026 You can follow it like a game of telephone all the way back to it.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. So Tucker mentioned this California case. And ironically, it\u2019s called Marx, M-A-R-X. And that case is kind of the jumping off point. And you see the interesting thing about that case is that the California appeals court in that case actually ruled that it wasn\u2019t scientific, that bite mark analysis wasn\u2019t a scientific discipline. But they said it just seemed right. It\u2019s just common sense. I [00:28:00] think Tucker, in a Law Review article, called it the eyeball test. And so that set the precedent. And then what\u2019s crazy though is, you look at these subsequent appeals court decisions all over the country, and they refer back to Marx. And a good percentage of them refer back to Marx as having established these scientific legitimacy of bite mark evidence. And it didn\u2019t. It did the opposite. It said there was no science here. And so judges have just done a really bad job at this.\nAnd you know what, that\u2019s not at all surprising because judges aren\u2019t trained to do scientific analysis. [00:28:30] They\u2019re trained to do legal analysis. And they\u2019re doing legal analysis exactly how you expect them to, which is by looking at precedent and looking at the controlling case law. That\u2019s how you do a legal analysis. The idea that judges are bad at scientific analysis shouldn\u2019t surprise us any more than the judges are probably bad at coming up with a game plan for an NFL game, for an NFL team. We\u2019re asking them to do something that\u2019s well outside their job description and they\u2019re doing predictably poorly at it. The problem is that the consequences are pretty [00:29:00] dire.\nTucker C.: Let me just add one thing. If you do legal research, if you\u2019re a law clerk in the judge\u2019s chambers, and the judge says, \u201cHey. Is bite mark testimony admissible?\u201d So you get on West Law or Lexus as the clerk and you look up: Is bite mark testimony admissible? A host of cases will come up. If the judge says, \u201cGive me the jurisdictions,\u201d and if you went to Mississippi, Levon Brooks and Kennedy Brewer\u2019s cases will come up and they both still to this day stand for the proposition that [00:29:30] bite mark testimony is admissible. There\u2019s nothing in the affirmances. They were prior to the exonerations. There\u2019s nothing in the affirmances which say that later, in 2008, Brooks and Brewer were exonerated. They never bit anybody. They weren\u2019t involved. In fact, no one was bitten. And so you would think that those cases were good precedential value. They\u2019re not. They should be highlighted as the exact opposite.\nRadley Balko: In fact, in at least three states, I think it may be four now, [00:30:00] the controlling case law for whether or not bite mark evidence is admissible was a case where an appeals court upheld a conviction in the process of ruling that bite mark evidence is admissible. And that person was later exonerated by DNA testing, completely exonerated, found to be innocent. And yet it\u2019s still the controlling case law when we look at whether or not bite mark evidence should be admitted in future cases.\nTrevor Burrus: It seems that there\u2019s an epidemic. I will use the word epidemic and you can tell me I\u2019m right, [00:30:30] of forensic malfeasance that kind of across the country. And some people have been pointing this out, seemingly about 2009 you started having National Academy of Sciences saying, \u201cThis is not science.\u201d And then President Obama had a report and said, \u201cIt\u2019s not science.\u201d And we\u2019re talking about the matching stuff, not the DNA so much, but the matching subjective stuff. Is this having any effect? Is the growing awareness, at least for people like us and people who do these convictions, that this is not science? And so many bad convictions are caused [00:31:00] by this. Is it having an effect on courts?\nRadley Balko: Not to the extent that you would think it would. DNA evidence has exposed a lot of these fields for being sort of a lot more subjective and error prone than a lot of people thought they were. And the courts have still been really reluctant to address that. And again, this is because courts, our system values precedent and it values sort of the past and it values the finality [00:31:30] of verdicts to protect the integrity of the system, or at least the appearance of the integrity of the system.\nTrevor Burrus: That might be a better way of putting it.\nRadley Balko: Right. But you talk about an epidemic of forensic malfeasance. There is a lot of malfeasance in the form of bad actors. There\u2019s Annie Dookhan in Massachusetts, who was faking drug test results and tens of thousands of cases were overturned. There\u2019s West and Hayne, who at some point, I don\u2019t think even they believed [00:32:00] their own testimony. There are lots of examples of forensic analysts who were clearly faking it, who were clearly frauds. But there\u2019s also just a lot of examples of just bias creeping in the system. And part of the problem is that we\u2019ve just done a really poor job of structuring these systems in a way that incentivizes just outcomes.\nRoger Koppl, the political scientist, did a study a few years ago that was jaw dropping. It should\u2019ve been a national scandal. [00:32:30] He found that in, I can\u2019t even remember how many states, but I think it\u2019s a dozen or more, the crime labs are paid per conviction. So if you\u2019re a crime lab analyst and your analysis basically exonerates the suspect, you don\u2019t get any money. Your lab doesn\u2019t get any money. If you, on the other hand, find that evidence that ends up with a conviction, the suspect is then charged a crime lab fee that goes back to the lab. I mean, that is not a system that puts a value on a just [00:33:00] outcomes as opposed to a particular outcome, which is a guilty verdict.\nOther crime labs report to prosecutors, or they report to the state police. In North Carolina several years ago, the newspaper reported the handbook for the lab talked about referring to defense witnesses as horrors and talking about how you can please prosecutors. And prosecutors did their year end reviews and decided whether they got raises and promotions. There was this security video that the paper found of these two blood spatter analysts. Blood [00:33:30] spatter is another very questionable field.\nTrevor Burrus: Wait. Dexter\u2019s not true?\nRadley Balko: The two analysts though, they continued to do the experiment over and over again until they get the result that the prosecutor wants, at which point they high five one another one the video. So I don\u2019t think you need people who are deliberately sort of faking results to get to where we are right now. I think it\u2019s a system that we\u2019ve just put the incentives in the wrong place and we value the wrong principles.\nTucker C.: [00:34:00] I think one thing that\u2019s interesting that I\u2019ve seen this phenomenon is in Mississippi, you would be hard pressed to get bite mark evidence into a trial court in Mississippi now. I think the story about Dr. West, there\u2019s been enough cases where prosecutors, defense attorneys, and judges wouldn\u2019t let that happen. That said, I\u2019m on a list serve of defenders and I see this frequently. Someone will say, \u201cThe prosecution has a blood spatter expert.\u201d And then the reflexive question [00:34:30] asked is, \u201cDoes anyone know of a good blood spatter expert for me?\u201d\nTrevor Burrus: Which endorses the entire thing.\nTucker C.: Exactly, where the question really should be, if anyone\u2019s been reading the reports that you mentioned, should be, I wonder if blood spatter is like bite marks. Is this stuff all it\u2019s cracked up to be? Maybe what I need is not a blood spatter expert, but someone who can come in and explain why blood spatter is not a sound forensic science to begin with. To your question, [00:35:00] yes, it has made some difference in certain cases where we know that the discipline is nonsense. On the other hand, there\u2019s still this sort of default reflexive attitude, reaction by folks, which, well blood spatter\u2019s come in for the last 25 years, 30 years, 40 years, whatever. I\u2019ve had blood spatter cases. There\u2019s no way I\u2019m going to convince this judge that this stuff is nonsense now. What\u2019s this judge going to say? I was wrong for all these years. I need my own expert.\nRadley Balko: I will say this too. [00:35:30] If you\u2019re a defense attorney, sometimes you\u2019re in a hell of a predicament here because if you \u2026 Let\u2019s say it\u2019s a bite mark case. If you hire your own bite mark expert who then testifies in court, I\u2019ve seen the opinions later when you try to challenge the legitimacy of bite marks in your appeal or your post conviction petition. Appeals court will say, \u201cHey, you put your own expert. You bought into it. You can\u2019t challenge the legitimacy of it now.\u201d I think you should be able to. But I\u2019ve seen opinions where they\u2019ve told them they can\u2019t. And so you\u2019re in this [00:36:00] difficult choice where it\u2019s like: Do I do the sort of right thing and the rational thing and the enlightened thing?\nTucker C.: And actually, the professionally ethical thing, arguably.\nRadley Balko: Yeah, which is to go after this just as a legitimate field of forensics in the first place. Or do I just hire my own expert and hope that my expert is more charismatic and persuasive than Dr. West? I wanted to get back to you. You said how the courts are handling this. In some areas of forensics, like shaken baby syndrome, the courts have started [00:36:30] looking at old convictions, even without DNA. But I think in the vast majority, particularly in the pattern matching fields, these more subjective areas of forensics, the courts just have not responded to the scientific community at all. And in fact, to this day every time someone has challenged bite mark evidence in court, they\u2019ve lost. So not a single court in the country has said that bite mark evidence is illegitimate at this point.\nTrevor Burrus: Where are Dr. Hayne and Dr. West now?\nTucker C.: Dr. Hayne, they\u2019re both still in Mississippi. Dr. Hayne [00:37:00] is not longer performing autopsies for the State of Mississippi, which he did on a contractual basis for a couple decades. But he does work privately. And a few years ago, not too long after the state didn\u2019t re-up his contract, he started doing private autopsy, excuse me, private testifying and autopsy work and testifies not infrequently for defense attorneys in criminal cases now.\nDr. West, last time I [00:37:30] checked, last time I was with him in a deposition, is a still practicing clinical dentist, but he practices in a prison. He\u2019s a prison clinical dentist in South Mississippi. And as far as I know, has not testified to bite mark matching. Says he wouldn\u2019t, by the way. He no longer believes in it. He hasn\u2019t testified for some years.\nRadley Balko: Will say though that the State of Mississippi is still defending convictions won certainly on West\u2019s testimony, but in several cases they\u2019re still defending \u2026 Excuse me. Hayne\u2019s testimony. [00:38:00] But in several cases also WEst\u2019s testimony.\nTrevor Burrus: Which I think underscores the point you made about the inputs into the system and the incidents involved that they just keep defending what they did in the past.\nRadley Balko: Yeah. And we say this in the book. It would be a huge thing for a Mississippi judge, particularly somebody who\u2019s been in Mississippi all his professional life, to say, \u201cYou know what, Dr. Hayne isn\u2019t credible a witness, and we need to face up to this.\u201d In some cases, the judge may have been a former prosecutor who used Hayne, so he would be calling his own prior career into [00:38:30] question. But also, it would just be calling into question the integrity of the very system that this person has worked in their entire life and presumably believes it. And that\u2019s a lot. I hope one of them does it at some point. And I think when a judge does it, that judge will be a hero. But it\u2019s a hell of a lot to ask of a judge. I think we definitely need to admit to that.\nTrevor Burrus: Thanks for listening. Free Thoughts is produced by [00:39:00] Tess Terrible.

        "raw_content": "BJP backing gives GST a fresh lease\n3 min read . Updated: 19 Jul 2011, 12:23 AM IST Liz Mathew & Remya Nair\nBJPGSTSushil ModiYashwant SinhaAsim DasguptaSheila DikshitVATPratik JainHome\nNew Delhi: The proposal for a single goods and services tax (GST) received a fresh lease of life after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) reversed its earlier opposition to the nomination of Bihar deputy chief minister Sushil Modi as the chairman of the empowered committee of state finance ministers.\nWith the parliamentary standing committee on finance, which is finalizing the Bill, being headed by BJP leader Yashwant Sinha, the principal opposition party finds itself in a key position to influence passage of the GST legislation.\nModi, immediately after taking over on Monday, said he would try to evolve a consensus among states for the ambitious indirect tax reform. His leadership will be particularly crucial in bringing around some of the dissenting ministers, particularly those belonging to the BJP.\nThe Times of India and The Economic Times first reported his appointment.\nEarlier, the BJP had dragged its feet on endorsing Modi\u2019s nomination to the chairmanship of the committee. The party did not make its opposition official, but dragged its feet and delayed signing off on Modi\u2019s nomination.\nDespite the new political earnestness on pushing ahead with the single biggest tax reform that will economically unify the country, the United Progressive Alliance is unlikely to be able to meet its deadline of introducing GST in the next fiscal year.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a BJP vs (ruling) Congress issue. GST is in BJP\u2019s manifesto. There is no ideological opposition to it. Most of the issues are state-centric,\" said Modi, who initially refused to take over as the chairman of the committee to succeed Asim Dasgupta, the former finance minister of West Bengal.\nThe constitutional amendment Bill was tabled before Parliament in March and was later referred to the standing committee.\nIn their meeting on Monday, the first after the recent assembly elections, state finance ministers unanimously elected Modi as the chairman of the empowered committee, with his name being proposed by Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit and seconded by Orissa finance minister Prafulla Chandra Ghadei.\nThough the only agenda for the meeting was the selection of a new chairman, the states also raised the issue of compensation for the year 2010-11 to meet losses on account of the phasing out of the Central sales tax.\n\u201cThe Centre is yet to arrive at a formula for deciding the amount due for states as compensation for 2010-11. However, we have released around \u20b9 2,000 crore as ad hoc compensation,\" said a finance ministry official who did not want to be identified.\nIntroduction of GST is expected to lower the cost of doing businesses, which will eventually translate into lower prices for customers.\nThe support of the BJP is crucial for the Bill as it requires to be passed with two-thirds majority in Parliament and also needs the support of at least half of the Indian states.\n\u201cWe are all very positive that under the leadership of Modi, all the issues which have been pending between the Centre and the states, all the issues related to VAT (value-added tax) and GST will be amicably solved,\" said Gujarat finance minister Saurabh Patel.\nModi declined to comment on whether the roll-out of GST will meet the 1 April deadline. However, he said that the Centre will need to be flexible if it wants to arrive at a consensus. \u201cThe concerns of the states should be looked into,\" he said.\nPratik Jain, executive director at audit and consulting firm KPMG, said: \u201cIt is a positive development and is expected to help build up a consensus among states. He has been supporting the GST process from the beginning. However, to what extent he will be able to build up a consensus remains to be seen. Roll-out of GST from April seems difficult.\"\nModi said the empowered committee will take up the concerns of the states regarding provisions in the constitutional amendment Bill with the standing committee.\nThe states are demanding they should be given flexibility to levy cess during exigencies such as floods and droughts so that they do not have to depend on the Centre for funds. Some of the coal-producing states are also demanding that coal be kept outside the purview of GST. The states are also opposing the dispute settlement authority proposed in the draft.\nThe empowered committee is likely to meet after 15 August to finalize the next steps on GST reform.\n\u201cThe role of the empowered committee is now limited as the Bill is now within the ambit of the standing committee,\" Modi said.",

        "raw_content": "Hinds' high hopes\nRICHARD HINDS is determined that nothing should stand in the way of his desire to return to the first team picture with Tranmere Rovers.\nThe versatile 21-year-old's appearance against Colchester last weekend was his first league start of the season.\nAnd 20 minutes into the goalless draw at Prenton Park Hinds strained a muscle near the top of his leg.\nBut the Yorkshire man had no intention of making a premature exit from the action after waiting for his chance since August.\nHinds (pictured) says: \"I was sprinting back to our defence and I felt a little pull in my abducter.\n\"It became sore during the game but I was enjoying myself and wanted to carry on.\n\"After waiting so long for a game in the first team I did not want to come off after 20 minutes. So I stuck it out and relished every minute.\"\nHinds paid a painful price the following day for staying the course on Saturday and he was unable to train normally on Monday. But he hopes to resume his regular routine later this week.\nCertainly Hind's performance as a deputy left-back for the suspended Gareth Roberts did not betray his physical discomfort and earned words of encouragement from manager Dave Watson.\nWatson (pictured) said: \"Richard certainly did not look out of place on Saturday. We only have a couple of natural left footed players at the club but Richard has a decent left foot and has played left-back for the reserves.\n\"He's strong, six foot tall and has good distribution skills. He just needs to gain more confidence.\"\nHinds also has the ability to operate in several defensive and midfield roles and hopes that flexibility will help his cause over the second-half of the campaign.\nLast season he was effectively a first team regular playing 39 league and cup games, of which 32 were starts in a variety of roles.\nThis season after some early problems with injuries Hinds has found it more difficult to break into Watson's starting 11.\nThe player says: \"It was a great feeling to be back and playing in-front of a big crowd again.\n\"Playing in-front of a few hundred people for the reserves can make you a bit down-hearted. Every player wants to be in the first team and once you are there you have to enjoy every moment.\n\"I had some problems with injuries at the start of the season and they stalled my progress a bit. But I have been pleased with my form over the past few months.\n\"I believe there is a lot more to come from me and hopefully we will see it soon. I need to put myself about more, make more appearances in the first team and then pursue the next step of getting a regular place,\" he said.\nHinds has seen enough action in the second division to notice the difference in the kind of football Tranmere are having to play this season.\nHe said: \"There's no doubt you are required to battle more in this division.\n\"The situation is different to last year when we were at the bottom of the division. This season there's pressure on us to go up, opponents see us as one of the top sides and they are all after our scalp.\"\n* Tranmere's School of Excellence teams returned to action at the weekend following the Christmas and New Year lay-off.

        "raw_content": "This zoo in middle-of-nowhere Michigan is unlike anything you've ever seen\nOwners had early struggles, but persevered to make dream a reality\nNAUBINWAY, Mich. - This is like your typical stroll in the woods.\nThere are towering pine trees, mulch trails and sightings of birds, bugs, chickens, camels, llamas and alligators.\nCamels, alligators and llamas in the middle of the woods, living underneath pine trees?\nBelieve it or not, such a place exists in Michigan\u2019s remote Upper Peninsula.\nAnd it's been around for almost a quarter-century. This place is the fulfillment of a couple\u2019s dream -- and it's anything but your typical stroll in the woods.\nA bear-ish start\nAs they were living in an unfinished garage in the middle of a frozen tundra and had to sell a prized possession just to survive the winter months, it was easy for Gary and Lynn Moore to ask themselves one question: \"What were we thinking?\"\n\"Oh yeah,\" Gary Moore said. \"We were wondering if we should have sold everything.\"\nAfter growing up in southeast Michigan their entire lives, in 1993, the Moores decided to sell their home in suburban Detroit to pursue a dream in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and it took a while to see that vision come to fruition.\nIn their second year in the Upper Peninsula, the two had to sell their pickup truck in order to feed themselves and their animals during the winter.\nFour years after that, they were still living in that unfinished garage and trying to survive the harsh winters.\nOn peacock wings and prayers\nUltimately, after buying a 30-acre parcel of land near a small town called Naubinway, the Moores finally got to start going after their dream, of building a zoo in the middle of the woods.\nWhen many people think of zoos, they think of them as being in big cities that are more accessible, and having funding from a corporations or governments.\nBut starting a private zoo in the middle of a forest in a remote location? That might have seemed batty.\nHowever, it was the Moores' vision.\nLovers of animals their whole lives, Gary Moore said he has owned peacocks since he was in high school.\n\"We liked the area and we didn't want to be by a big city,\" he said. \"Some of the animals were ones I had. We kind of thought we were (going) to buy a hotel and have (the animals) behind the hotel for people (to view). That was the original idea. But then we just said (we'd) build a zoo.\"\nThus, the concept of the GarLyn Zoo was born. The name GarLyn combines the first three letters of the first names of Gary and Lynn.\nAnd slowly but surely, the Moores did it -- first housing the pygmy goats, pigs, pheasants, peacocks and sika deer that they already had with them before moving on to some of the other animals.\nThe first six years were about building the enclosures, the barn and a gift shop, and, of course, getting the word out to the public that there was a place in the middle of the woods where people could visit exotic animals.\nAs the zoo developed, other animals, such as wolves, bears, cougars, bobcats, otters, reindeer, bison and alligators, were brought in through trades with other zoos or donations.\nEventually, the public not only took notice of the zoo, but as it turned out, people loved it.\nAfter all, there aren't many places where you can walk through mulch-lined trails in the middle of a forest and view exotic animals, such as a camel who is eating underneath a pine tree.\nThere also aren't many places where the odor of zoo animals is overpowered by the aroma of those thousands of surrounding pine trees.\n\"We get all kinds of reactions to it,\" Gary Moore said. \"They can't believe we have as much back here as we do. They all think it's just one little spot.\"\nA bull-ish future\nThese days, the Moores aren't living in an unfinished garage.\nThey now live in a log cabin on a property adjacent to the zoo, and next year, the zoo will celebrate its 25th year in business.\nGary Moore said the GarLyn Zoo has grown to where it sees 30,000 to 35,000 visitors each year in the six months it is open. According to published reports, the Detroit Zoo had more than 1.5 million visitors in 2017 and the Houston Zoo welcomed more than 2.5 million in 2016.\nMoore said the animals stay at GarLyn year-round and some are housed in buildings when the weather gets too cold in the middle of winter.\nThere is plenty of room on the property to expand, going forward, and Moore said the next addition is likely to be a parakeet house, where people can feed the birds.\n\"People seem to really love them,\" Moore said.\nEven though next year will mark a milestone, Moore said no special celebrations or promotions have been planned as of yet.\n\"We haven't really thought about it,\" he said. \"We're pretty laid back.\"\nWhatever celebrations take place, they won't be any bigger than the fact that the Moores can look back and say they have come a long way from living in an unfinished garage and selling their pickup truck to make ends meet.\nAs difficult as the pursuit was initially, their dream is alive and well after almost 25 years.",

        "raw_content": "Donwload image MAHLE oldtimer [JPG; 623 KB]\nAs recently as this year, MAHLE Aftermarket has expanded its \u201cClassic Line\u201d product range for historic vehicles to include more engine parts. Whether Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, or Jaguar: MAHLE Aftermarket offers a broad spectrum of engine parts for vintage, neo classic, and modern classic cars. \u201cWe are delighted to receive the RetroClassicsCultur award. In particular, it recognises our endeavours to preserve the historical automotive cultural heritage using modern production techniques\u201d, explains Olaf Henning, Member of the Management Committee and Managing Director of MAHLE Aftermarket GmbH. Recently, for example, MAHLE has manufactured pistons in small lots for the Porsche 917\u2014the most successful sports car of the 1970s, made famous by the racing film \u201cLe Mans\u201d about and featuring Steve McQueen. Components for 2.4-litre Porsche engines have also recently been added to the \u201cClassic Line\u201d product range.\n\u201cOur employees in product management and sales needed to carry out some preliminary work prior to the expansion of the \u2018Classic Line\u2019\u201d, says Olaf Henning. \u201cFor example, we reactivated networks and expanded this specific product range according to requirements. To facilitate the production of these historic components in small lots, product management then had to revise internal processes, analyse the technical standards of the time using the old design drawings, and then combine them optimally with the modern manufacturing possibilities at the plants.\u201d\nMany engine parts in the \u201cClassic Line\u201d were developed and series-produced jointly with the manufacturers for original equipment purposes. This is why original design drawings, reaching back into the 1950s, can still be found in the MAHLE archives. Based on these specifications, MAHLE Aftermarket is producing such products with the same quality and expertise as for the current original equipment product range. The tools and equipment used in ongoing series production are specifically converted for this purpose.\nA new catalogue was issued for Retro Classics Stuttgart; a further updated edition will be brought out for Automechanika 2016.\nAbout the RetroClassicsCultur award 2016\nEach year, the Retro Classics Cultur organisation uses the \u201cRetroClassicsCultur\u201d award to honour people and institutions that have contributed to the preservation and public awareness of historic vehicles. The previous year\u2019s award-winner, Carsten M\u00fcller, Member of Parliament and a member of the \u201cAutomotive Cultural Heritage\u201d (Automobiles Kulturgut) cross-party parliamentary group, handed over the award in the marble hall of Ludwigsburg Palace. The 13th \u201cRetro Classics meets Barock\u201d event will take place between 17 and 19 June 2016 in the courtyard of Ludwigsburg Palace. The organisers expect around 30,000 visitors to attend this exhibition of vintage and modern classic cars from the pre- and post-war eras.",

        "raw_content": "Home Opinions United States needs to implement stricter gun control laws\nUnited States needs to implement stricter gun control laws\nValentine\u2019s Day: it\u2019s a day to celebrate love, passion and friendship. On that day, St. Olaf students fill their friends\u2019 P.O. boxes with flowers and spend valuable time with loved ones. Children around the country indulge in pounds of candy and give special Valentines to their crush. Couples celebrate their joy and milestones. It should be a day full of happiness and laughter.\nValentine\u2019s Day 2018 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida: the day 17 classmates and teachers were murdered in yet another school shooting.\nThe school was prepared, as every elementary, middle and high school in America believes they are. They had practiced lockdown drills and they have security systems and restricted entrances. But in less than two hours, a single gunman had taken 17 innocent lives while hundreds of students and teachers huddled in corners of their classrooms, praying for safety.\nAccording to the gun control advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety, this shooting marks the 18th school shooting this year. Not this decade, not this lifetime, not this generation \u2013 this year. In 2018, the United States has experienced an average of about three school shootings per week.\nAfter every mass shooting, activist groups attempt to tug at the heartstrings of gun-loving lawmakers, begging them to implement harsher gun control and confronting their old-fashioned obsession with the Second Amendment. It\u2019s the same every time: the President offers condolences to the families, we read articles about the victims and survivors and schools implement more lockdown drills. Repeat, repeat, repeat until we\u2019re numb to school shootings.\nBut with Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, it\u2019s not the typical repetition.\nThis is because the students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School aren\u2019t idly sitting back, passively waiting for change while they attend funerals for their classmates. The survivors of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are fiercely fighting back as the namesake of the school and women\u2019s suffrage advocate, Marjory Stoneman Douglas, did in her lifetime. Douglas once said: \u201cSpeak up. Learn to talk clearly and forcefully in public \u2026 Be a nuisance where it counts, but don\u2019t be a bore at any time \u2026 Do your part to inform and stimulate the public to join your action \u2026 Be depressed, discouraged and disappointed at failure and the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption and bad politics \u2013 but never give up.\u201d\nThe students refuse to stay silent and let this \u201cnew normal\u201d of school shootings continue. Most of these students aren\u2019t even old enough to vote, yet they are determined to establish logical change in their country. Parkland survivor Alex Wind said, \u201cIn Newtown the students were so young they couldn\u2019t stand up but trust me \u2013 we are going to be the change.\u201d Wind and four of his friends created the Never Again campaign almost immediately following the shooting. The students, along with other classmates, have lobbied for hours on end, written speeches, travelled 450 miles to the state capital and used their debate skills to attempt to change the minds of lawmakers.\nAs I write this in the comfort of the St. Olaf Library, students, families and teachers are returning to Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School for the first time since the shooting for a three-hour orientation. The maturity and bravery of these students are impeccable, yet why should they have to grow up so fast? When I was in elementary school, I don\u2019t remember having lockdown drills several times a year. I remember fire and tornado drills, but I have no memory of becoming so used to lockdown drills at such a young age that it became like second nature to rush into the corner of the classroom, hide under tables and avoid windows.\nHigh school students shouldn\u2019t have to worry about facing a gun in their schools. They should be focusing on college applications, their education, even prom dates. Anything but seeing a gun murder their classmates. It\u2019s time lawmakers realize this and face the facts. We are experiencing dozens of school shootings a year and something must change. And it\u2019s not about mental illness.\nLet me repeat that: This is not an issue of mental illness.\nI know, President Trump, it\u2019s so easy to blame it on mental illness and avoid your job. You would much rather play golf with your conservative lawmaker buddies and avoid the fact that at that moment, kindergarteners could be losing their lives because you don\u2019t understand that guns have changed too much to still be protected under the Second Amendment. It is completely unnecessary for anyone to have a gun able to murder seventeen individuals in less than two hours. If high school students are able to understand this, why can\u2019t you?\nKatie Anderson \u201920 (anders43@stolaf.edu) is from Saint Paul, Minn.

        "raw_content": "Pilgrims flock to the Lourdes Grotto on Eden Hill during the summer months. The grotto could attact crowds this February, once word gets out about a plenary indulgence approved by the Holy Father.\n'Indulge' Yourself at Eden Hill Grotto\nOK, you \"commited the crime.\" Do you want to be freed from \"doing the time?\" Do you want all punishment for sin to be wiped off the books? I thought so. Then read on. And one other thing, please \u2014 it might be handy to plan a visit to Stockbridge from Feb. 2 through 11.\nThis year, beginning on Dec. 8, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, the Church celebrates the 150th Jubilee Year of the Lourdes apparitions. To highlight the importance of this year of grace, Pope Benedict XVI has approved a plenary indulgence for pilgrims taking part in any public or private devotion to a site dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes. A plenary indulgence removes all punishment for sins.\nThe special indulgence will be granted to anyone visiting the Lourdes shrine in France during the jubilee year, which runs through Dec. 8, 2008. Those who can't make it to Lourdes can receive the indulgence from Feb. 2-11 if during that time they visit any public sanctuary, shrine, or \"other worthy place\" dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes. That would include the Lourdes Grotto at the Immaculate Conception Candle Shrine on Eden Hill, Stockbridge, Mass.\nThe indulgence for a visit to any dedicated Lourdes shrine or site requires:\n\u2022 Confession reasonably near the time of the pilgrimage\n\u2022 The reception of Holy Communion\n\u2022 Praying for the Pope's intentions\n\u2022 An honest, genuine spirit of determination to good and avoid sin.\nAs a suggestion, the Vatican said pilgrims should also consider praying an \"Our Father,\" the Apostles' Creed, and a prayer to Mary such as the \"Hail Mary\" or Magnificat.\nLourdes, as the pre-eminent, Church-approved apparition of Our Lady, holds a special place for the Marians of the Immaculate Conception, whose U.S. province is based in Stockbridge. At Lourdes on March 25, 1858 \u2014 in the sixteenth of 18 visits of a \"small, young lady\" to Bernadette Soubirous \u2014 Mary said, \"I am the Immaculate Conception.\"\nShe said this to Bernadette, 14, after the teen asked her to reveal her name. Prior to that, whenever Bernadette would ask for a name, the \"lady\" would smile knowingly and softly move her head in a slight bow. The interesting aspect of the \"lady's\" remarkable statement is that it came only four years after the Church had declared dogmatic that when Mary was born, she was without sin. Bernadette testified that, as of the time of the apparitions, she had never heard the phrase \"Immaculate Conception,\" something verified by her parents and others in the Lourdes area at the time, who were also unfamiliar with the term.\nThe Feast of the Immaculate Conception is primary, of course, to the Marians of the Immaculate Conception and has always been one of the Congregation's most important, even seminal, days. This year on Dec. 8, the Marians again celebrated Holy Mass at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on Eden Hill, beginning at 10:30 a.m. The Mass included a special ceremony in which Marian priests and brothers renewed their vows.\n'The Gratuitous Love of God'\nThe Most. Rev. Fr. Jan Rokosz, MIC, Superior General of the Marians, in a letter to his congregational brothers, called Dec. 8 \"an opportunity for us to return to the source of our vocation, namely, to Christ. ... Let us discover with renewed strength how beautiful and attractive holiness is, which we contemplate in Mary Immaculate ... .\"\nFather Jan called the Immaculate Conception \"the sign of the gratuitous love of God.\" He then \"cut to the chase\" with the directness wisdom must assume:\nWithin each one of us, there is some sort of inclination to sin, which wants to dominate us. If we establish that our primary goal is to fight evil, then our entire thinking will revolve around sin, which we will want to conquer. This will lead to a haughty type of ascetic \"muscles\" and a dangerous concentration on moral perfection. The truth of the Immaculate Conception reminds us that Christ saves us. He waits until we come to Him with all our misery and helplessness.\nThis theme of avoiding moral scrupulousness is one of the controlling ideas that appears throughout the Diary of Saint Faustina, between and in the lines of the sayings of Jesus, and in all benign spiritual counseling. Besides being a cornerstone to the quality of mercy, unscrupulousness is a tremendous thought upon which to dwell, because it prevents a tendency many have to \"beat themselves up\" because they are not \"perfect as God is perfect.\"\nAn illusion many of us share concerns suffering. For some reason, many think that when we suffer, we suffer poorly, though that is not usually true. In terms of spirituality, most of us process suffering better than we realize.\nWhat We Lost, He Returned\nWisdom deals with where we are, not where we have been or want to be. We are not perfect. God understands that. He cradles our weaknesses and enhances our strengths. He transforms our sufferings and ladles our joy. He forgives our sins and celebrates our goodness. What we ripped apart, He made whole again. What we rejected, He restored. What we lost, He returned.\nHow did He do all this? As Fr. Jan wrote, \"The truth of the Immaculate Conception reminds us that Christ saves us\" (my italics).\nYes, we should strive for perfection, but we must accept forgiveness \u2014 not forgetting to forgive ourselves \u2014 when we fail to achieve it. We must reach through adversity to the stars (per aspera ad astra). As people striven to great goodness, we can count on Mary's help, she who \"calls the faithful to her Son and His sacrifice, and to the love of the Father\" (Lumen Gentium, Second Vatican Council).\nThe Immaculate Conception is the \"IC\" of the \"MIC\" you see after the names of the Marians whenever one of the Congregation is mentioned. The \"IC\" of the \"MIC\" keeps the mystical significance of Mary's love for us \u2014 before us \u2014 everyday. Why is this important? Responding to this question provides a basis for better appreciating the phenomenon of Marian apparitions.\n\"The apparitions at Fatima were of immense significance,\" says Fr. Tony Nokunas, MIC, who had the privilege of visiting Lourdes in the previous jubilee year, 1958. \"It was basically the beginning of a series of [modern] Marian apparitions that continue to this day [Kibeho, Rwanda, for example, officially approved by the Church, and Medjugorje in the former Yugoslavia, which has not been officially approved but which nonetheless has been the site of continuous alleged apparitions since 1981]. Asked what this type of Marian activity might signify, Fr. Tony said it reflected \"an intensification of the battle between darkness and light. I believe that is why Mary is making herself more present to us here on earth, in our time.\"\nThis greater availability of Mary, relatively recent as it is, can be seen as another divine gift presented for our benefit. Failing to take advantage of the present (the \"gift\" present and the \"temporal\" present) by refusing to receive it amounts to ingratitude. To accept the gift, however, even if only to be \"polite,\" represents graciousness. The gift in this instance is the special indulgence. The best advice is \"Go for it.\" Let God worry about the rest.\nThe \"small, young lady\" called herself the Immaculate Conception. What does it mean for us? It's a question people must answer for themselves. As you do, consider the words of Fr. Jan Rokosz. The Marian General told his brothers that the Feast of the Immaculate Conception:\n... is an opportunity for us to return to the source of our vocation, namely to Christ, who is the First-born of the new creation. Let us allow ourselves to be grasped by the loving gaze of Christ, to immerse ourselves in His grace, to discover anew the beauty of the life to which He calls us.\nCome. Find the life to which you are called.\nDan Valenti writes for numerous publications both online and in print of the Marians of the Immaculate Conception. He also authors \"Dan Valenti's Journal\" for thedivinemercy.org. There you will find a related article on the mysterious happenings that occurred at Lourdes 150 years ago.\nMargaret - Dec 16, 2007\nI have Emmitsburg, MD to go to the Grotto of Lourdes which is closer than Stockbridge MA. I sure you have a beautiful grotto.\nMount Saint Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland will celebrate its bicenntenial in 2008. It is the oldest independent Catholic University in the country and has the oldest recreation of the Grotto Of Lourdes in the country.",

For the entire seven-year run of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Shepherd played Morn, the alien barfly who frequented Quark\u2019s, apparently was the life of the party, but never uttered a word \u2013 at least not on camera. Beyond portraying Morn, who was a Lurian, Shepherd appeared on DS9 as a Starfleet civilian and even as a Bajoran asked to sit in Morn\u2019s usual spot at Quark\u2019s after Morn\u2019s supposed death. Shepherd also made cameos as Morn on Voyager and The Next Generation. And Shepherd\u2019s contributions to Star Trek didn\u2019t end there. Also a talented artist, Shepherd licensed two dozen pieces of his artwork to the DS9 production team, pieces which were used to decorate the quarters of several major characters, including Major Kira and Dr. Bashir. StarTrek.com recently caught up with Shepherd, who now lives in Germany, for an exclusive two-part interview in which he recounted his days on DS9 and filled us in on what he\u2019s doing now.

        "raw_content": "Harley-Davidson\u2019s recent results have been poor and there are some concerning signs that the broader motorcycles market in certain geographies might be suffering currently. Harley-Davidson is attempting to combat some of the problems that it sees to make its vehicles more appealing to younger generations and expand their appeal globally, by updating designs and engines and spending more on marketing. However, there are some fundamental problems that are affecting the motorcycle industry which are yet to be addressed by these changes. Millennials becoming the new largest generation means that companies are having to adjust their offering to suit this age group and for the motorcycle industry this generation\u2019s reluctance to purchase motorcycles in quite the same volumes as generations before is a major challenge to overcome for the next decade.\nHarley-Davidson an iconic motorcycle brand is the largest US motorcycle manufacturer. Its brand and style of product is instantly recognizable and the company has a huge committed following from customers that are buying a lifestyle product. However, Harley-Davidson has identified some significant business issues and has been trying to address them, but the scale of the problem is significant. Motorcycle sales are down in the US in general, never really recovering to pre-recession levels and finding new customers is difficult because traditional customers are getting long in the tooth and younger consumers are not purchasing in healthy numbers.\nHarley-Davidson issued a voluntary recall for 57,138 units of its 2017 touring motorcycles which are its highest value and list price products meaning the recall is going to be expensive. The issue stemmed from a potentially weak oil line that could detach and release oil in front of the rear wheel, a significant safety issue. Furthermore, this isn\u2019t an isolated incident.\nIn some respects, Harley-Davidson is becoming stuck between two customer demographic trends: Millennials who aren\u2019t widely embracing the motorcycling lifestyle quite as readily and the Baby Boomer generation who are aging out of riding. Millennials are now the key generation in terms of consumers, they are the largest generation and troubling for motorcycle companies and particularly for Harley-Davidson, with its traditional and very specifically cultivated image. Overall, millennials are considerably less interested in motorcycles than previous generations and this is a worry for the entire industry, let alone Harley-Davidson.\nHarley-Davidson has spent a great deal of R&D money on improving some of its most important product lines and the company is very aware of the need to reconnect with customers and find a new audience. The company in 2016 spent 35% more on development than 2015 and 65% more on marketing. As a result, the entire \u201csofttail\u201d range and \u201cstreet\u201d range has been revamped with brand new engines developed, chassis improvements and the introduction of more modern technology along with a complete remodeling.\nHarley-Davidson has made good progress in India. India is an absolutely crucial global market and many manufacturers prioritize India, precisely because it is the world\u2019s largest bike and scooter market. Harley-Davidson only takes a very small section of its income from India around 2%, but its market share in the big bike sector is huge, controlling 60% of that market in India.\nTo read our full analyst insight on Harley-Davidson please visit marketline.com",

        "raw_content": "Due to the uncertainty that surrounds many workers\u2019 compensation cases, it may be in your best interest to settle your claim. Before you commit to a settlement, you would be best served to seek the guidance of an experienced attorney to obtain the best result possible. Settling your workers\u2019 compensation claim essentially means that you will no longer be eligible for weekly or bi-weekly checks. Settlements come in the form of one lump sum, so it\u2019s crucial to make sure that you\u2019re getting exactly what you need to support your family while you recover.\nFirst, your attorney will take you through the process of calculating the value of your current claim. This will allow both you and your employer to arrive at a reasonable settlement amount, should you choose to opt for a settlement. In Alabama, if you are on s. 34 (total) benefits, your weekly check will be multiplied by the number of weeks left on your claim. For example, if you get paid $750/week and have three years left on your claim, the current value of your claim would be $117,000.\nFurthermore, your workers\u2019 compensation attorney will also help you calculate the extended value of your claim, which is activated when your current benefits expire. If you are still eligible for compensation because of a lingering injury, the extended value of your claim under s. 34 (total) and s. 35 (partial) would be half of your weekly pay multiplied by the duration of your extension. Generally speaking, extended partial benefits under s. 35 account for 75% of your s. 34 benefit. Therefore, in the previous example, this worker could be eligible for five additional years of benefits at 75% of his weekly pay, leaving them with an extended claim value of $146,250. When added to the earlier amount, this worker would receive $263,250 over time.\nBefore accepting or declining these fixed payments, you need to look at a number of different factors. If there is a chance of your condition worsening, you may be unable to work for longer than expected. In this case, it would not behoove you to accept a settlement. If you feel as if you are close to returning to work, a settlement may be your best option.\nAt this point, your attorney can begin to establish a reasonable settlement amount with your employer\u2019s insurance company. In the previous example, this worker would undoubtedly decline a settlement of $75,000. However, if the insurer offers this worker $350,000, then a settlement may be the best possible solution. An experienced and knowledgeable attorney will guide you through this convoluted process to ensure that big insurance companies do not take advantage of you during this vulnerable time.\nCall Martinson & Beason, P.C. in Huntsville, Alabama, to talk with a workers\u2019 compensation attorney. We can analyze the details of your situation and advise you on the best way to handle your workers\u2019 compensation claim.",

        "title": "Massachusetts Landowner Wins Appeal for Building Permit to Construct Residence on Vacant Lot \u2014 Massachusetts Real Estate Lawyer Blog \u2014 November 13, 2017",
        "raw_content": "Massachusetts Landowner Wins Appeal for Building Permit to Construct Residence on Vacant Lot\nBuilding a dwelling on your own property typically requires a special permit or approval from a local zoning board. That decision can be appealed, as the plaintiffs appealed the denial of their building permit application in a November 2, 2017 Massachusetts zoning case before the Land Court. The plaintiffs in the case had sought a building permit to construct a residence on a vacant lot. When their application was denied by the building inspector, they appealed to the local zoning board, which affirmed the decision. The plaintiffs then filed the present appeal to the Land Court.\nOn appeal, the plaintiffs argued that the lot was buildable, since it was created by the division of an existing lot in 1964 and retained its grandfather status under the zoning ordinance in effect at the time of the division. The zoning board asserted that the lot was unbuildable because the 1964 division was not approved pursuant to the Subdivision Control Law, and because the lot merged with another lot when it was placed in common ownership, losing any grandfather protection it had.\nThe Massachusetts Subdivision Control Law was enacted in 1953 and prohibits the division of land without approval of a plan by a local planning board. The term subdivision under the statute includes a tract of land divided into two or more lots, but it is subject to multiple exceptions, including lots with frontage on a public way. The plaintiff\u2019s lot, which was created by division in 1964, was located on a public way and satisfied the statutory requirements, such that it was not considered a subdivision subject to additional subdivision laws. A division that is not a subdivision within the statute is known as an Approval Not Required or ANR plan, and the division does not require planning board approval.\nThe zoning board argued that the original property owner was required to submit an ANR plan to the planning board to be endorsed in order to constitute a valid division in 1964, and, since she failed to do so, the division was illegal. The Land Court did not agree, however, explaining that the language of the statute indicated that one is not required to submit an ANR plan to the planning board for an endorsement to divide property not considered a subdivision. Instead, the statute provides a way for someone to obtain approval of an ANR plan if he or she wishes to record such a plan.\nAccordingly, since the splitting of the original lot into two lots, each of which met the minimum frontage required by the ordinance in effect, did not constitute a subdivision, the original owner would have been entitled to receive an endorsed ANR plan from the planning board had she submitted a plan. Notwithstanding this, she was not compelled to submit a plan in order to split the original parcel into two lots. The court, therefore, explained that since the plaintiff\u2019s lot, created by the division, satisfied the 1963 zoning ordinance in effect, it was a conforming, buildable lot. The court went on to find that the lot was also entitled to grandfather protection, since it met the conditions required by law. As a result, the court remanded the matter for the zoning board to approve the issuance of the building permit to the plaintiff for a residence.\nPulgini & Norton is a Massachusetts law firm providing comprehensive legal guidance in all residential real estate matters.

        "raw_content": "Cervicitis is an inflammation of the cervix, the lower, narrow end of the uterus that opens into the vagina.\nPossible symptoms of cervicitis include bleeding between menstrual periods, pain with intercourse or during a cervical exam, and abnormal vaginal discharge. However, it's also possible to have cervicitis and not experience any signs or symptoms.\nOften, cervicitis results from a sexually transmitted infection, such as chlamydia or gonorrhea. Cervicitis can develop from noninfectious causes, too. Successful treatment of cervicitis involves treating the underlying cause of the inflammation.\nWith cervicitis, an inflammation of your cervix, your cervix appears red and irritated and may produce a pus-like discharge.\nMost often, cervicitis causes no signs and symptoms, and you may only learn you have the condition after a pelvic exam performed by your doctor for another reason. If you do have signs and symptoms, they may include:\nLarge amounts of unusual vaginal discharge\nVaginal bleeding after intercourse, not associated with a menstrual period\nPersistent, unusual vaginal discharge\nNonmenstrual vaginal bleeding\nPossible causes of cervicitis include:\nSexually transmitted infections. Most often, the bacterial and viral infections that cause cervicitis are transmitted by sexual contact. Cervicitis can result from common sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomoniasis and genital herpes.\nAllergic reactions. An allergy, either to contraceptive spermicides or to latex in condoms, may lead to cervicitis. A reaction to feminine hygiene products, such as douches or feminine deodorants, also can cause cervicitis.\nBacterial overgrowth. An overgrowth of some of the bacteria that are normally present in the vagina (bacterial vaginosis) can lead to cervicitis.\nYou're at greater risk of cervicitis if you:\nEngage in high-risk sexual behavior, such as unprotected sex, sex with multiple partners or sex with someone who engages in high-risk behaviors\nBegan having sexual intercourse at an early age\nHave a history of sexually transmitted infections\nYour cervix acts as a barrier to keep bacteria and viruses from entering your uterus. When the cervix is infected, there's an increased risk that the infection will travel into your uterus.\nCervicitis that's caused by gonorrhea or chlamydia can spread to the uterine lining and the fallopian tubes, resulting in pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), an infection of the female reproductive organs that can cause fertility problems if left untreated.\nCervicitis can also increase the risk of a woman getting HIV from an infected sexual partner.\nTo reduce your risk of cervicitis from sexually transmitted infections, use condoms consistently and correctly each time you have sex. Condoms are very effective against the spread of STIs, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia, which can lead to cervicitis. Being in a long-term relationship in which both you and your uninfected partner are committed to having sex with each other exclusively can lower your odds of an STI.\nFerri FF. Cervicitis.

        "raw_content": "home/cancer center/ cancer a-z list/ breast cancer radiation linked to heart risk article\nBreast Cancer Radiation Linked to Raised Heart Risk\nTUESDAY, Dec. 27 (HealthDay News) -- Women who have breast cancer on the left side of the body and who are treated with radiation therapy have a higher risk of developing narrowing of the arteries that lead to the heart, researchers say.\nA new Swedish study found that the risk of having moderately narrowed coronary arteries was more than four times greater for women who had left-sided breast cancers treated with radiation compared to right-sided breast cancers treated with radiation. The odds were seven times higher for more severe narrowing on the left side versus the right, according to the study published in the Dec. 27 online edition of the Journal of Clinical Oncology.\n\"We suggest that the coronary arteries be regarded as organs at risk in radiation therapy, and that every effort be made to avoid radiation dose to the coronary arteries,\" wrote study authors led by Dr. Greger Nilsson, of the department of oncology, radiology and clinical immunology at Uppsala University Hospital.\nHowever, it's also important to note that of a group of 8,190 women who had breast cancer, just 199 had to be referred for coronary angiography (a treatment for blocked blood vessels).\n\"Women need to be aware that there is a risk, but the overall risk is still relatively small, and the benefits of radiation in the treatment of breast cancer still outweigh the risks,\" said Dr. Stephanie Bernik, chief of surgical oncology at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City.\nCancer treatments, such as radiation and chemotherapy, are designed to destroy cancer cells. Unfortunately, healthy cells are often damaged, too. Treatment techniques are constantly being refined, and today's treatments target fewer healthy cells than treatments from years past.\nFor example, newer radiation techniques help protect the heart and the arteries leading to it, according to Dr. Timothy Zagar, an assistant professor in radiation oncology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. One such technique is to give bursts of radiation only when a patient is taking a deep breath. During a deep breath, the main artery going to the heart separates from the breast and chest wall, which keeps it away from the radiation.\nZagar, co-author of an accompanying editorial in the same issue of the journal, said researchers don't know exactly how radiation causes damage to coronary arteries, but it's believed to damage the cells lining the arteries (endothelial cells), which causes inflammation, which can lead to hardening of the arteries.\nThe current study included women from Sweden who were diagnosed with breast cancer between 1970 and 2003. Of the 8,190 women, the researchers found 199 women who had undergone coronary angiography, suggesting significant coronary artery disease.\nCoronary artery narrowing (stenosis) is graded on a scale of zero to 5. Zero indicates a healthy blood vessel, while 5 indicates a blocked blood vessel.\nWhen the researchers compared women who'd had radiation treatment on the left side of their body versus the right, they found that the odds of a grade 3 to grade 5 stenosis in a left-sided artery were 4.38 times higher. The odds of a grade 4 or grade 5 stenosis were 7.22 times higher for women who had left-sided breast cancer.\nIn women who received radiation in high-risk areas near the heart's arteries, the risk of a grade 3 to grade 5 stenosis was nearly twice as high as it was in women who had radiation in low-risk areas, or who didn't have radiation.\nZagar pointed out that this study was done over a long period of time and that changes in the way radiation is delivered would likely result in lower odds of coronary artery stenosis for women treated with radiation today.\nIn addition, Zagar said, \"I don't think this study's findings would justify changing from a lumpectomy [breast-conserving surgery] to a mastectomy [surgical removal of the breast]. Breast-conserving therapy is very important to many women, and the number of coronary events are still low,\" he added.\n\"It's important to understand that with all treatments, there are risks,\" Bernik said. \"And, we know that this is one of the risks with radiation of left-sided breast cancer. Women need to keep in mind that they're at increased risk of coronary events and need to follow up with their doctor going forward.\"\nSOURCES: Timothy Zagar, M.D., assistant professor, department of radiation oncology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; Stephanie Bernik, M.D., chief, surgical oncology, Lenox Hill Hospital, New York City; Dec. 27, 2011, Journal of Clinical Oncology, online",

Our surgeons have fellowship training from centers of excellence around the world, with the unique advantage of being the most experienced in complex urologic reconstruction in this region. We work hard to restore function to the genitourinary system, personalizing the plan depending on each person\u2019s circumstance and goals.\nExamples of conditions we treat include:\nThe urethra is a narrow tube that passes urine from the bladder outside of the body. When the urethra is narrowed due to scarring from swelling, injury or infection, this causes a urethral stricture.\nPeyronie\u2019s disease occurs when scar tissue, referred to as plaque, forms inside the penis. A buildup of plaque can cause the penis to bend and may be painful.\nErectile dysfunction affects as many as 30 million men in the United States. This condition is characterized by the inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sex more than half the time an attempt is made.\nUrinary incontinence is the unintentional loss of urine. This may be caused damage or weakening of the sphincter muscle, nerve damage or other specific medical conditions. Involuntary loss of urine may occur when one sneezes or coughs, when the urge to urinate is too strong, or due to frequent urination in small amounts.\nA fistula is abnormal connection from one body part to another. This can occur as a connection between the urinary tract and bowel (colovesical or rectourethral), or from the urinary tract to the skin (urethrocutaneous)\nTrauma/Injury of the Penis and Scrotum\nTrauma and injury to the penis or scrotum can occur various ways. If a penetrating injury or a fracture occur to the penis, surgery may be required.\nInjury of the Ureter\nInjuries to the ureter most often occur due to complications from pelvic or abdominal surgery. If left untreated, further complications, such as fistula, or persistent urine leakage may occur. Minor treatment may include the use of a stent until the ureter is healed.\nOur team of urology specialists focuses on providing specialized patient care. In order to provide the best treatment possible, our physicians engage in detailed, open dialogue about the diagnosis and treatment process. By doing so, our specialists are able to address the specific needs of each patient to significantly improve their quality of life.",

        "title": "History of Mendon & Slideshow - Village of Mendon, Illinois",
        "raw_content": "The History of Mendon\nPIONEERS OF MENDON TOWNSHIP\nEbenezer Riddle appears to have been the first to settle in that portion of the county. He was a Kentuckian and in 1829 located on the southeast quarter of section 9, where he built his cabin and left descendants to inherit the la-nd which he then purchased. In the same year Col. Martin Shuey settled on Mendon Prairie, just over the line in Honey Creek Township. John C. Hardy located on section 29. Mendon Township, in 1830, and within the next few years Samuel Bradley, John B. Chittenden, the Bentons, the Baldwins and other thrifty Connecticut Yankees came to the Prairie and formed there a prosperous settlement.\nMENDON VILLAGE PLATTED\nIn 1833 the settlement was first laid out as the Town of Fairfield by John B. Chittenden, Benjamin Baldwin and Daniel Benton, but as the proprietors were soon notified by the postoffice department that there was another Fairfield in the state they changed it to Mendon.\nIn the year of its platting E. A. Strong opened a blacksmith shop, and while working at his forge he studied theology and eventually became prominent in the Episcopalian ministry. A postoffice was established in 1834 and Abram Benton was placed in charge of it. Daniel Benton was the first merchant, but the postmaster soon succeeded him in business and continued to conduct a growing general store for half a century. S. R. Chittenden was also a pioneer merchant, his sons followed him and his descendants to still later genera.tions are in business at Mendon. The grain elevator of the present is owned and operated by a member of the Chittenden family (C. A. Chittenden).\nEARLY POLITICAL CENTER\nThe fertility of Mendon prairie, with the consequent development of the region, gave the village quite a standing as a political rallying point in the early days when so much of the electioneering was done in. the rural districts. For example, in the William Henry Harrison campaign of 1840 a grand wliig barbecue was held at Mendon Village, and hundreds came in for miles around to attend it and consume the roasted carcasses of oxen, sheep and hogs, representative of the riches of the Bear Creek country. Upon that particular occasion Daniel Nutt was manager of the roasts and the eloquent O. H. Browning, the principal speaker.\nIt is said that the first school in the village was taught in J. B. Chittenden's house, during 1832, by the Miss Burgess who became Mrs. Willard Keyes, of Quincy. She lived only a short time after her marriage. What was considered to be quite a handsome brick schoolhouse was erected in 1876.\nCHURCHES AND LODGES\nIn 1833 the church people of the town erected the Union Meeting House. in which those of any religious faith could meet if they could secure the services of a minister. The Congregationalists also organized a church in February of that year, and theirs was said to be the first society of that demonination in Illinois. They erected a frame meeting house in 1838, a larger structure in 1853, and the edifice in which they now worship in 1905. The old Congregational church was purchased by the Mendon Improvement Company and transformed into a public hail. Rev. Milton J. Norton is the present pastor in charge.\nThe Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mendon was organized in April, 1853, at the town hail, and the meeting house was dedicated August 5, 1854. It is still standing and is one of the old landmarks of the place. Rev. Joseph C. Miller is serving as pastor.\nZion Episcopal Church has also been organized for many years, Dr. D. E. Johnstone being its pastor; the Methodist society is in charge of Reverend McNally, of New Canton, Illinois, and St. Edward's Catholic Church is served by Rev. Father Paul Reinfels.\nConsidering its size, Mendon has a number of rather strong lodges. Mendon Lodge No. 449, Ancient Free and\u2022 Accepted Masons, was organized in 1865; Mendon Chapter No. 157, Royal Arch Masons, in 1873, with a present membership of about fifty, and Mendon Star Chapter, No. 153, Order Eastern Star, instituted in 1889, has a membership of 95. There are also Mendon Lodge, No. 877, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and Mendon Rebekah Lodge; Golden Grain Camp No. 422, Royal Neighbors, and the Tri-Mutual and the Modern Woodmen of America, Camp 751.\nWhen the Methodist Episcopal Church was organized at Mendun in 1839 the circuit included all of Adams County, as well as considerable adjoining territory. The Quincy district, over which Peter Cartwright was presiding elder, was formed in 1832, and included nearly all the western half of Illinois. Enos Thompson was the first pastor of the Mendon circuit. A meeting house was erected in Mendon during 1840, which was replaced by the house of worship built in 1854. Rev. Mr. McNally, of New Canton, Illinois, is in charge of the present Mendon circuit.\nMENDON INCORPORATED AS A VILLAGE\nMendon had made such a showing as a town by the late '60s that the villagers applied for incorporation. This was effected by special act of the Legislature in 1867, its corporate boundaries embracing an area of one mile square. In the early '90s it was incorporated as a village under the general laws of the state. Since that time it has increased in population and general attractiveness. Nothing has contributed more to that development than the coming of the Quincy & Warsaw Railroad to its doors in 1870. Col. John B. Chittenden, the original proprietor and platter of the town, set aside a beautiful plat of ground for a public park. It was gradually improved, the most. noteworthy single addition to its attraction being made in 1876, when it was bordered by a row of fine sugar maple trees, appropriately called Centennial Row. They have since developed into a feature of real beauty.\nThe present Village of Mendon is a pretty, prosperous community, well adapted for residence and comfortable living. Its streets are kept in good condition and well lighted by electricity. Light and power are furnished by a private company, of which James Thompson is president. Fire protection is afforded by a volunteer force of twenty men. The village authorities have provided special cisterns for that purpose, with a gas engine as the chief feature of the apparatus.\nIn 1877, seven years after the coming of the railroad, Mendon's first newspaper made its appearance. It was the Mendon Enterprise; publishers, C. A. Bristol & Co. After several changes of ownership it was purchased by Jacob R. Urech in 1878, and the name changed to the Mendon Dispatch. The late D. H. Darby was editor for several years. In. 1883 W. H. McIntyre purchased an interest in the paper and became its editor; later, he became its sole owner. In 1899 he disposed of the paper to J. R. and C. H. Urech, who continued its publication, under the name of J. R. Urech & Son, until August, 1911. At that date it was purchased by its present editor and pro. prietor, Joseph B. Frisbie.\nMendon has two substantial banks. The oldest, the Mendon State Bank, was established as a private institution in April, 1889, by J. S. Wallace & Brother. They conducted a general banking business until February, 1895, when they disposed of their interest and the concern was reorganized under the name of the Mendon Bank, which still later became a states institution, as at present. C. A. Chittenden is its president.",

These crystals are light gray on the outside.\n(Healing Crystal, Fertility Crystal)\nOrigin: Harricana River, Abitibi, Quebec, Canada\nNative Americans have known about the Faery Stones for hundreds of years. They were often carried for good luck when they went on fishing or hunting expeditions. The largest Faery Stones occupied a place of honor in their homes. Lovers often offered the Faery Stones to their loved ones. According to legend, these special stones provided protection against the bad spirits. They also brought good health and prosperity to the occupants of the dwelling.\nThe Faery Stones were found at the origin of the Harricana River in western Quebec. The Native Americans found them on the beaches of James Bay where the Harricana River starts. They thought the Faery Stones looked like biscuits, so they named the river \u201cHarricana\u201d because it means 'river of the biscuits' in the Algonquin language.\nFaery Stones form on the bottom of very large lakes that formed in glacier basins. As the glacier receded, some of these Faery Stones were deposited on the shore of the lake. The Faery Stones are millions of years old.\nEach Faery Stone is a unique shape. Front and back are often puffy sphere shapes. Many of these stones have what might be perceived as E.T. (extraterrestial) language. In actuality, these markings are, or should I say were, either tiny worms or other organic matter that wound up in the concretions. This makes them fossils as well.\nFAERY STONE #10\nFaery Stone #10 measures approximately 1 1/2\" x 1 1/8\" x 3/8\" (39mm x 29mm x 9mm) and weighs approximately .4 ounces (16.4 grams).

Their energy is very soothing.\n(Healing Crystal, Throat Chakra Crystal, Ascension Crystal)\nHardness (Dumortierite): 7.0\nThe first thing I notice about this lovely combination is its angelic, feminine energies. While Quartz is often touted as an energy amplifier, when paired with Dumortierite it feels softer, less edgy. I really like it! Less \"in your face\" and more \"let's walk together, shall we?\"\nThis crystal has a quiet demeanor. Yet, when it speaks, it speaks with authority. Richard Gere comes to mind- quiet in speech and timbre, he can be mesmerizing to the eyes and ears. When he has something to say, people hang on every word. We want to listen.\nThere is a quiet calm about this crystal. It brings about feelings of tranquility and peace.\nThe message of Dumortierite included Quartz is that you do not have to yell in order to be heard. For those who feel invisible, looked over, unheard, Dumortierite included Quartz will help you to rise above these insecurities and feelings, giving you a quiet confidence to be seen, listened to and understood.\nThis crystal will also stop the self critical voice in your head that self sabotages and stifles you.\nDumortierite included Quartz will aid you in what you say and how you speak. Choose your words carefully, speak them resolutely, with confidence.\nStanding in silence often makes a stronger impact than screaming, yelling and throwing tantrums. Dumortierite included quartz will help you to understand the power and impact that silence can have.\nWork with this combination to access the higher self, angelic presences and/or personal guides. There is a clarity when connecting not often found. The information shared will come easily and effortlessly. Listen and trust. Remain open for the messages. They will come.\nIt is also a wonderful piece to use when meditating. It raises your vibration gently, a little at a time. For first time meditators, this would be a great piece to hold to gently lead you into a space of stillness. I am also told you would benefit greatly from holding this while doing walking meditations.\nWhen working with clients, place the crystal at the notch directly below the throat with the point facing up towards the face. It will be very helpful in the areas affected by Sinus issues and allergies. I also found that it immediately relieved my TMJ pain.\nDumortierite included Quartz will help to clear the Throat Chakra area, breaking up blockages and clearing the way for you to find your voice.\nPhysically, Dumortierite included quartz can help to clear the fogginess/cloudiness of the brain. It would be beneficial for those who suffer from dementia or memory related disorders.\nDumortierite in Quartz Cluster #34 measures approximately 2 1/4\" x 7/8\" x 11/16\" (60mm x 21mm x 17mm) and weighs approximately 1.4 ounces (35.9 grams).

The formation is Elestial, and this is the second kind of Self-Healed Quartz Crystal. There are also some Rainbows. The termination on one end is not complete.\nLightning Quartz Crystals are Laser Wands that have been struck by lightning energy. They are extremely rare. This is one of the \"Grand Formations\" which will help you survive any Earth changes and combat any serious traumas of any kind. This crystal will take all the white light it gathers and throw it wherever you wish to direct it. It passes along the energy of love very quickly! Lightning Quartz works well on fear. If you are stuck and cannot move forward, this crystal can be very useful to get you un-stuck. It will also help you overcome other obstacles and move more more quickly along your pathway.\nLightning Quartz can help you either get rid of or relocate ghosts and mischevious poltergeists. You can help them cross over with this crystal, if need be. These are supposed to be another Lemurian Crystal with stored information from that culture. Lightning Quartz can give you access to off-planet healers and their methods. This crystal also helps healing occur more quickly.\nClear Quartz Crystal is one of two basic crystals I believe everyone should have if you are even a little bit interested in crystals. The other crystal is Satin Spar Selenite. Quartz is for everyone--from beginners to the very advanced. These wonderful crystals can purify all parts of us--physical, emotional, and spiritual. They are, indeed, pure white light. Quartz can provide clarity of thought in order to influence your situation(s) and surroundings. It aligns your energy and brings you into a state of harmony.

There are empty pockets where another mineral, probably Calcite, used to be, all over the back of this crystal. This is the second type of Self-Healed Quartz, and the formation is Elestial. It looks like there is a Time Link--Activation Left (Past), but it's hard to tell because all of the faces don't show at the tip of this crystal.\nReciprocal-Space Quartz has at least one open space inside of the crystal. It is open space where another crystal once was but has disappeared leaving only the space behind. An Enhydro, a space containing water, is one form of a Reciprocal-Space Quartz. Fluorite-Included Quartz Crystals are another as many of them have Reciprocal Spaces where a Fluorite Crystal was. The mineral that disappears is often Calcite, but not always.\nThis crystal makes you realize that all things are possible--all you have to do is learn how, and you can learn to do anything! Reciprocal-Space Quartz allows you to see all sides of a situation so that no surprises pop up later. If you have a rebel streak, this crystal will help you express that side of yourself. This crystal helps you have the nerve to express yourself with no thought of consequences from what other people think. It will show you how to properly celebrate yourself!\nQuartzes do not need to be cleansed or cleared unless there are some very unusual circumstances, and this Quartz is no exception. The open space within the crystal takes any negativity and completely dissipates it. If you are a poet who writes positive poetry (not dark), this crystal will assist you. If you are a writer of any kind, Reciprocal-Space Quartz will help you grasp proper grammar to help you be a better writer (i.e., books, email, school papers, letters).\nIn the area of health, this crystal will help you connect to your Higher Self to see what the problem is and will help you see how to fix it.\nSmokey Quartz Crystal #29 measures approximately 4 5/8\" x 2 1/8\" x 1 3/16\" (117mm x 53mm x 30mm) and weighs 5.6 ounces (161.2 grams). This crystal is an Eroded Quartz. It looks like someone cut 2/3 off this crystal, laid it down like a plate and heaped all kinds of smaller crystals on the plate. It is most unusual! There is some breakage in a couple of places. On the bottom is a good-sized area of Self-Healed Quartz of the second kind.\nSMOKEY QUARTZ ERODED CRYSTAL #41\nSmokey Quartz Crystal #41 measures approximately 4 5/16\" x 3 11/16\" x 1 3/4\" (108mm x 95mm x 50mm) and weighs 1 pound 7.8 ounces (611.9 grams). Much of this crystal's surface is chatoyant. Turn it from side-to-side and up-and-down and see it shine! The formation is Elestial. There is a tiny bit of breakage in the tip which has many points, and the bottom has been entirely eaten away (Eroded Quartz). There is a dark crystal inclusion, but I don't know what it is.",

        "raw_content": "Bush, in visit to Holocaust memorial, says U.S. should have bombed Auschwitz\nJERUSALEM - U.S. President George W. Bush had tears in his eyes during an hour-long tour of Israel's Holocaust memorial Friday and told Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that the U.S. should have bombed Auschwitz to halt the killing, the memorial's chairman said.\nBy Aron Heller, THE ASSOCIATED PRESS\nBush emerged from a tour of the Yad Vashem memorial calling it a \"sobering reminder\" that evil must be resisted, and praising victims for not losing their faith.\nWearing a yarmulke, Bush placed a red-white-and-blue wreath on a stone slab that covers ashes of Holocaust victims taken from six extermination camps. He also lit a torch memorializing the victims.\nBush was visibly moved as he toured the site, said Yad Vashem's chairman, Avner Shalev.\n\"Twice, I saw tears well up in his eyes,\" Shalev said.\nAt one point, Bush viewed aerial photos of the Auschwitz camp taken during the war by U.S. forces and called Rice over to discuss why the American government had decided against bombing the site, Shalev said.\n\"We were talking about the often-discussed 'Could the United States have done more by bombing the train tracks?\"' Rice told reporters later aboard Air Force One. \"And so we were just talking about the various explanations that had been given about why that might not have been done.\"\nThe Allies had detailed reports about Auschwitz during the war from Polish partisans and escaped prisoners. But they chose not to bomb the camp, the rail lines leading to it, or any of the other Nazi death camps, preferring instead to focus all resources on the broader military effort, a decision that became the subject of intense controversy years later.\nBetween 1.1 million and 1.5 million people were killed at the camp.\n\"We should have bombed it,\" Bush said, according to Shalev.\nThe memorial was closed to the public and under heavy guard Friday, with armed soldiers standing on top of some of the site's monuments and a police helicopter and surveillance blimp hovering in the air overhead.\n\"I was most impressed that people in the face of horror and evil would not forsake their God. In the face of unspeakable crimes against humanity, brave souls - young and old - stood strong for what they believe,\" Bush said.\n\"I wish as many people as possible would come to this place. It is a sobering reminder that evil exists, and a call that when evil exists we must resist it,\" he said.\nIt was Bush's second visit to the Holocaust memorial, a regular stop on the visits of foreign dignitaries. His first was in 1998, as governor of Texas. The last U.S. president to visit was Bill Clinton in 1994.\nBush, making the most extensive Mideast trip of his presidency, was accompanied on his tour by a small party that included Rice and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.\nAt the compound, overlooking a forest on Jerusalem's outskirts, Bush visited a memorial to the 1.5 million Jewish children killed in the Holocaust, featuring six candles reflected 1.5 million times in a hall of mirrors. At the site's Hall of Remembrance, he heard a cantor sing a Jewish prayer for the dead.\nShalev presented Bush with illustrations of the Bible drawn by the Jewish artist Carol Deutsch, who perished in the Holocaust.\nDeutsch created the works while in hiding from the Nazis in Belgium. He was informed upon, and died in 1944 in the Buchenwald camp. After the war, his daughter Ingrid discovered that the Nazis had confiscated their furniture and valuables but had left behind a single item: a meticulously crafted wooden box adorned with a Star of David and a seven-branched menorah, containing a collection of 99 of the artist's illustrations of biblical scenes.\nThe originals are on display at Yad Vashem.

        "raw_content": "Philadelphia Credit Report Error Attorney\nDon't Let a Mistake on Your Credit Report Affect Your Future\nAs Americans, we use our credit to obtain motor vehicles, credit cards, home loans, appliances, store credit cards, time shares, business loans, apartments and rental homes. Nearly every aspect of our life is governed by our credit score. When there is an inaccuracy on your credit report, it can affect whether or not you get an automotive loan, a home loan, or even decent automotive insurance rates. Wrong information on your credit report can even affect your ability to get a good job.\nCredit report errors can cost you a better score and they can ruin your hopes for obtaining certain loans. Nearly 80% of the credit reports in a study from the U.S. Public Interest Research Group contained inaccuracies. What's more, a quarter of them had mistakes that could trigger a denial of credit. If a credit reporting agency fails to remove inaccurate information from your credit report, you may have legal recourse against them. Legally, if there is inaccurate information on your credit report, the credit reporting agency is required to remove it.\nIf the credit reporting agency fails to remove the inaccurate information, then they could be sued for damages. As a seasoned Philadelphia debt collection defense attorney, I will closely review the details of your situation and I can inform you if you have grounds to file a lawsuit. As a debtor, you have legal rights, and it's my personal mission to see to it that the integrity of your credit report is fully protected and kept in good standing.\nSchedule an initial consultation today to find out how I can help.\nIs your credit score being reported accurately?\nIn the United States, we use three major credit reporting agencies: Transunion, Experian and Equifax. Although each of these credit reporting agencies differ slightly, all three of the credit reports contain the same basic information. Your credit report is extremely important and it has an effect on many aspects of your life. Your credit report contains personal identifying information about where you live, how you pay your bills, if you have ever filed for bankruptcy and whether or not you have ever been sued or arrested. These credit reporting agencies sell the information in your credit report to creditors, insurers & employers.\nThese parties then use your personal information to evaluate your applications for credit, insurance, employment, and even renting an apartment or home.

        "raw_content": "In conversation with former Mayor Manny Diaz \u2014 who will speak about his own book, Miami Transformed: Rebuilding America One Neighborhood, One City at a Time, Friday at the Freedom Tower \u2014 Wolfe was more stooped than you might remember, but happy to ramble on amiably after Diaz\u2019s questions.\nBack to Blood, he said, started out as a desire to write about immigration, but every time he\u2019d tell someone about his new subject, \u201cthey\u2019d say, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s really interesting,\u2019 and then they\u2019d go to sleep standing up like a horse,\u201d he said. But he kept working the idea, finally focusing on Cuban American immigrants and the way they have shaped the city.\nThe novel touches on potentially explosive themes, but that\u2019s necessary in fiction, Wolfe believes. A former journalist who pioneered the New Journalism with works like The Right Stuff and The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, he strives to make his fiction deeply grounded in fact.\n\u201cSo few writers want to touch the subject of race and ethnicity. It makes people nervous,\u201d Wolfe said. \u201cBut that\u2019s what America is all about. It\u2019s the great meeting place of people from all over the world.\u201d\nWolfe talked about his friendship with former Police Chief John Timoney, art (\u201cartists are the best real estate developers\u201d) and even had a chuckle at a question from an audience member about an essay he wrote calling John Updike, Norman Mailer and John Irving \u201cMy Three Stooges.\u201d\nBut he told the audience that even with all his research, he couldn\u2019t hope to sum up Miami.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no blanket statement I could make,\u201d he admitted. \u201cThere\u2019s such variety.\u201d\nBefore the reading, audience member Michele Zakis of Miami said that she hadn\u2019t yet read Back to Blood but was intrigued by the amount of research Wolfe did on the city and was curious about just how real his Miami is.\n\u201cI\u2019m interested in how Miami is portrayed in fiction,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m kind of a literary snob. Some writers, you think they nailed what it\u2019s like to be here in Miami. Other times .\u2009.\u2009. South Florida has a flavor that\u2019s different than anyplace else. Mr. Wolfe has captured what\u2019s different about other places he\u2019s written about.\u201d\nEven if he did capture the pulse of the city, Wolfe has no plans to put another chronicler of Miami out of business.\n\u201cCarl Hiaasen is in a league by himself,\u201d he said. \u201cI think I\u2019ve read every word he\u2019s ever written. I wouldn\u2019t even think of topping him.\u201d",

His new proposal is a minor step toward eliminating the entire $2 billion in corporate income taxes, a move that, if enacted to swiftly, could severely strain Florida\u2019s budget as the state tries to emerge from the recession.\nThe proposal represents a stark contrast from Scott\u2019s first proposed budget in 2011, when he asked lawmakers to approve more than $400 million in business tax cuts. Lawmakers ultimately passed a drastically scaled back tax cut of about $30 million.\nDemocrats, coming off a string of Election Day victories, immediately bashed Scott for the proposal.\n\u201cOn election night, the people of Florida sent a clear message that they have rejected Gov.

        "raw_content": "This season, when Whiteside and Johnson play together, the Heat has been outscored by 13 points in 158 minutes. That ranks 76th among Heat two-man pairings.\nThey started together for the ninth time this season in the Heat\u2019s 95-88 win against Dallas on Monday, with Miami improving to 5-4 in those games. They\u2019re expected to start together again Wednesday night in Cleveland.\nIt has been an uneven season for Johnson, who is down in points per game from a season ago (12.8 to 10.2) and three-point field-goal percentage (29.5, compared with 34 last year) while playing comparable minutes (26.9 this season, 27.4 last season). His rebounds are up from 4.9 to 5.0 per game, and he\u2019s shooting 47.6 percent overall, barely below last year\u2019s 47.9.\nOne difference is that Johnson hasn\u2019t been as aggressive offensively. He\u2019s averaging 8.4 field-goal attempts per game, compared with 10.1 last season.\nWhen he sees Heat president Pat Riley, \u201cPat says, \u2018Shoot the ball and be aggressive and be the guy who we brought back!\u2019\u201d Johnson revealed this week.\nHe said coach Erik Spoelstra and teammates, including Goran Dragic, have also have encouraged him to shoot more.\nJohnson talks about the Heat\u2019s 103-102 win over the Jazz on Jan. 7, 2018 and the challenges that lie ahead with 11 of next 14 on the road.\nSo why hasn\u2019t he?\nHe said sometimes he believes the Heat is better served by him \u201cswinging the ball to the other side and make the defense have to work\u201d to defend the extra pass. \u201cThe four men [power forwards] on this team have to sacrifice.\u201d\nStill, he admits there have been some losses where he wishes he had looked for his shot more. \u201cThose are the ones that really haunt you,\u201d he said.\nJohnson noted there are some shots Spoelstra doesn\u2019t want him taking, such as \u201cpull-up transition threes.\u201d\nThough Johnson\u2019s assists are up from a year ago (4.1, compared with 3.6), he said he\u2019s getting the team into offense \u201ca lot less,\u201d which has been an adjustment.\n\u201cI am playing a whole different role,\u201d Johnson said, with Richardson, Justise Winslow and Tyler Johnson also handling some ball-handling duties to give Dragic a breather. \u201cWhen more guys get back [such as Rodney McGruder], I\u2019ll have a different role.\u201d\nJohnson said he hasn\u2019t felt any pressure from the four-year, $60 million contract that he signed in July but feels increased responsibility as one of the team\u2019s three captains.\nSpoelstra likes the chemistry between Kelly Olynyk and Bam Adebayo on the second unit and said he wants to stick with Johnson starting.\nMiami Heat forward James Johnson,left, talks with center Hassan Whiteside during the fourth quarter of an NBA basketball game against the Cleveland Cavaliers at AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami on Sat., March 4, 2017.\nThat starting group of Whiteside, James Johnson, Richardson, Tyler Johnson and Dragic was a plus 11 against Dallas but has been outscored by 25 as a group this season.\nThe question is whether Johnson and Whiteside can both fill the boxscore in tandem as they did in the pressure-packed final week last April against Washington (Whiteside had 30 points, 12 rebounds; Johnson 15 and 11), Cleveland (Whiteside had 23 and 18, Johnson 16 points and nine assists) and Washington again (Whiteside had 24, 18 and Johnson 12, 8 and 8).\nWhiteside was at his best in Monday\u2019s win, closing with 25 points, 14 rebounds and a block, while shooting 10 for 15 from the field and 6 for 7 from the line in 26 highly efficient minutes.\n\u201cThey couldn\u2019t do anything with the big fella in the paint,\u201d Richardson said.\nWhiteside was in a good frame of mind Monday night after his Sunday chat with Spoelstra.\nThe Miami Heat defeated the New York Knicks on Jan. 5, 2018.\n\u201cMe and coach Spo spoke for a real long time,\u201d he said. It was like an hour talk. I think it was great. It was a really great talk between us. We both came better out of it.\u201d\nHe said they discussed \u201cdifferent things, different challenges he has for me, both of what we\u2019ve seen out there.\u201d\nHe said Spoelstra wants \u201cme being more vocal. Talking to my teammates more, just being more of a leader. I have never been much of a rah-rah guy. I\u2019m trying to be more of a leader for the team and talk to guys more because they respect what I say.\u201d\nHow much of that talk fueled him Monday?\n\u201cIt did a lot,\u201d he said. \u201cI slept on it. I thought about it a whole lot.\u201d\nThis Heat player could replace injured Wizards guard John Wall on All-Star squad",

        "raw_content": "https://www.middletownpress.com/news/article/GEORGE-WILL-Future-rooted-in-the-past-11867223.php\nGEORGE WILL: Future rooted in the past\nGEORGE WILL, Washington Post Writers Group\nOn Day One of his vow to take \"meaningful steps to rein in our debt,\" Barack Obama asked Congress to freeze portions of discretionary domestic spending. This would follow an astonishing permanent expansion: Republicans on the House Budget Committee say appropriations bills Obama has signed, along with his stimulus spending, have increased discretionary domestic spending 84 percent. He almost certainly will not keep his promise to veto spending bills when Congress, as it almost certainly will, largely disregards his request.\nOn Day Two, taking a break from the rigors of austerity, he was in Tampa, Fla., promising $8 billion for high-speed rail projects there and in a dozen other places. Four days later, he released a $3.8 trillion fiscal year 2011 budget that would add another $1.3 trillion to the national debt. The budget reveals that the deficit emergency is not so great as to preclude another stimulus, aka \"jobs bill.\"\nOr to require that middle-class tax cuts enacted under The Great Alibi (George W. Bush) be allowed to expire. Or even to scrub from the budget such filigrees from olden days as $430 million for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which perhaps made some sense 42 years and 500 channels ago, when public television meant for some Americans a 33 percent increase in channels, from three to four.\nThe depressing minutiae of the moment pale next to two large possibilities anticipated by Robert Fogel, a Nobel Prize-winning economist. They concern the rise of American health spending and the even more dramatic rise of China's economy.\nWriting last September for the online journal The American, published by the American Enterprise Institute, Fogel warned that spending on health care is going to surge, for two reasons: By living longer, Americans will become susceptible to more health problems. By becoming richer they will be able to purchase more biotechnologies that make health interventions more effective.\n\"The financial per capita (health care) burden at age 85 and older,\" Fogel wrote, \"is nearly six times as high as the burden at ages 50-54\" and \"the financial burden of health care for ages 85 and older is over 75 percent higher per capita than at ages 75-79.\" A century ago, \"the burden of chronic diseases among elderly Americans was not only of greater severity but began more than 10 years earlier in the life cycle than it does today.\"\nBut the severity of afflictions increases and the cost of preventing further deterioration increases with age: \"Five years before the year of death, annual health cost is virtually the same as all annual Medicare costs per capita. By the second year before death the cost has risen by about 60 percent, and in the year of death the annual cost exceeds the average by more than four times. Indeed, expenditures on persons during their last two years of life account for 40 percent of all Medicare expenditures.\"\nThe 20th century radically reduced deaths due to acute infectious diseases, which were concentrated in infancy and early childhood. In 1900, more than 33 percent of all deaths were of children under 5; today they are less than 2 percent. In 1900, deaths of persons 65 and older were only 18 percent of all deaths; today they are 75 percent.\nThis demographic destiny might entail starving every other sector of society -- including national defense, at great cost to America's international standing. It had better not, given what Fogel argues in another essay, this one in the current issue of Foreign Policy. It is titled \"$123,000,000,000,000.\" Fogel's subtitle is: \"China's estimated economy by the year 2040. Be warned.\"\nHe expects that by 2040 China's GDP will be $123 trillion, or three times the entire world's economic output in 2000. He says China's per capita income will be more than double what is forecast for the European Union. China's 40 percent share of global GDP will be almost triple that of the United States' 14 percent.\nFogel finds many reasons for this, including the increased productivity of the 700 million (55 percent) rural Chinese. But he especially stresses \"the enormous investment China is making in education.\"\nWhile China increasingly invests in its future, America increasingly invests in its past, the elderly. China's ascent to global economic hegemony could be slowed or derailed by unforeseen scarcities or social fissures. America's destiny is demographic, and therefore is inexorable and predictable, which makes the nation's fiscal mismanagement, by both parties, especially shocking.",

        "raw_content": "By Joanna Tovia\t| March 21, 2014\nIn the absence of an ocean sheriff, international waters are being overfished and polluted beyond recognition. The high seas are crucial to supporting life on this planet, but while the world talks about how best to protect them, exploitation is accelerating at an alarming rate.\nIn 1609, Dutch philosopher and jurist Hugo Grotius published a treatise on international law called Mare Liberum (The Free Sea), which paved the way for global acceptance of the idea that \u201cthe sea, since it is as incapable of being seized as the air, cannot be attached to the possession of any particular nation\u201d.\nGrotius could never have imagined the global ocean would be anything but a vast expanse of wild water to be traversed for trade. But today, the high seas \u2013 defined as areas of ocean beyond the Exclusive Economic Zones of nations with marine borders \u2013 are battling pressures from every direction in the form of overfishing, mining, climate change and pollution to the point that they are now in peril.\nThis degradation and its impact on the future of humanity should not be underestimated. The high seas cover nearly half the world\u2019s surface and are crucial to life as we know it. Why? The ocean creates more than half the planet\u2019s oxygen, drives weather systems and modulates the atmosphere.\nThe high seas make up 64 per cent of the world\u2019s oceans and are home to some of Earth\u2019s most environmentally important ecosystems. The dark depths of these oceans contain many species that are already playing a vital role in medical breakthroughs, and only about a tenth of the estimated two million species that call the high seas home have been identified. The high seas also provide food for more than three billion people.\nAccording to a recent report by the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO), the cumulative impact of ocean stressors is undermining the ocean\u2019s resilience to dangerous levels.\n\u201cThe health of the ocean is spiralling downwards far more rapidly than we had thought,\u201d says IPSO scientific director Professor Alex Rogers. \u201cWe are seeing greater change, happening faster, and the effects are more imminent than previously anticipated. The situation should be of the gravest concern to everyone since everyone will be affected by changes in the ability of the ocean to support life on Earth.\u201d\nThe IPSO report was released in October 2013, a week after the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) revealed that the ocean serves as a buffer for the planet, and protects humanity from severe climatic impacts. In fact, the ocean absorbs about 90 per cent of the heat trapped on Earth from greenhouse gases and 25 per cent of our carbon dioxide emissions.\nSays Global Ocean Commission co-chair Trevor Manuel, \u201cIf the IPCC report was a wake-up call on climate change, IPSO is a deafening alarm bell on humanity\u2019s wider impacts on the global ocean. Make no mistake; unless we restore the ocean\u2019s health, we will experience the consequences on human prosperity, wellbeing and development.\u201d\nWhen an alarm bell rings over a threat to our ecological security, Manuel says governments must respond as urgently as they do to national security threats.\n\u201cIn the long run, the impacts are just as important.\u201d\nWith the population set to soar to 9.6 billion by 2050, the Global Ocean Commission advises that the need for a healthy, well-managed global ocean could not be more pressing.\nUnfortunately, given that the high seas are in international waters beyond the reach of national laws, they are largely unprotected and ungoverned. With little policing and monitoring, they are vulnerable to exploitation and degradation at the hands of humans with their own wants and needs in mind.\nAs island nations, Australia and New Zealand are taking a strong stance in working towards a solution on high seas governance. The problem is that all nations have to cast some of their self-interest aside for the common good of the oceans for this to happen.\nAt a Developments in Global Oceans Governance and Conservation seminar at the University of Sydney this November, Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority chair Graeme Kelleher said the high seas are subject to the \u201ctragedy of the commons.\u201d\n\u201cAvoidance of or recovery from this tragedy is extremely complex because it requires a conscious decision by humans to over-ride their instinctive selfishness and competitiveness. Most humans and groups seem to need to suffer significantly before they will willingly make such a decision,\u201d he says.\nCurrently, Kelleher says less than one 30,000th of the high seas is in marine protected areas, despite these waters facing escalating pressure from over-fishing, deep seabed mining, ocean acidification, chemical and noise pollution, huge gyres of plastic waste, dead zones, ship traffic and destructive fishing practices such as bottom trawling.\nKelleher is an Ocean Elder, a group of high-profile global leaders who have united to try to conserve and protect the ocean and its wildlife.\nAhead of the European Parliament\u2019s committee on fisheries vote on November 3 on whether to ban deep-sea bottom trawling, fellow Ocean Elder Sir Richard Branson called for support for the vote in The Observer: \u201cThe deep ocean houses a vast reservoir of biodiversity, an unimaginable wealth of genetic material with the potential to enable breakthroughs in medical and other vital fields \u2026 Until a strong deep-sea fishing regulation is implemented, bottom trawlers are free to engage in an unrestricted \u2018buffalo hunt\u2019 that every year reduces hundreds of square kilometres of the vibrant sea-floor to barren wastelands, including 4000-year-old corals that have been alive since the pyramids were built.\u201d\nWhile the EU fisheries committee did vote to ban fishing of deep-sea stocks in vulnerable areas, it did not back a blanket ban on deep-sea bottom trawling, pending a four-year evaluation.\nThis decision is typical of other moves to more effectively govern international waters. Robert Hill, adjunct professor of sustainability at the University of Sydney and commissioner with the Global Oceans Commission, says the high seas are governed by a patchwork of rules and regulations with separate organisations managing seabed mining and dumping, fishery agreements and rules for navigation and shipping. But there are many patches missing and changes to international governance arrangements are still a way off.\nNone of these organisations has overall responsibility for conserving nature, says Hill, and in most of the high seas there is no clear legal mechanism for establishing protected areas.\n\u201cIf you go back half a century, this wasn\u2019t too much of a problem because we didn\u2019t really use the high seas, but increasing demand for resources such as fish and our increasing technological capacity to catch them in industrial quantities have changed that paradigm; high seas biodiversity is now absolutely a major issue.\u201d\nIt is widely agreed that the only way for ocean life to recover and thrive is to create a network of fully protected, large-scale marine reserves that are off limits to exploitation.\nIn 2010, the international community agreed to protect 10 per cent of the oceans by 2020 but no legal mechanism so far exists to establish high seas marine reserves.\nAustralia and New Zealand are supporting United Nations discussions over whether to implement a new international instrument to protect and conserve marine biodiversity in the high seas, but a decision is unlikely to be made before 2015.\nGroups such as the High Seas Alliance, made up of 27 NGOs and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, are pushing for the UN to adopt legal measures to protect the high seas, a commitment made at 2012\u2019s Rio+20, the UN Conference on Sustainable Development.\nBut as Sofia Tsenikli of High Seas Alliance member Greenpeace International says, \u201cThe ocean\u2019s clock is ticking, we hope countries stop dragging their feet at the next round of talks and finally give the go-ahead they should have done at Rio last year for a new agreement to protect high seas marine life, which we all depend on to survive.\u201d\nThreats to the high seas\nClimate change: Rising sea temperatures and acidification is making the ocean unlivable for many species. Ecosystems are being irreversibly damaged to the detriment of biodiversity and fish stocks.\nOverfishing: Around 9000-10,000 tonnes of fish and invertebrates are taken from the ocean every hour. Methods such as bottom trawling and nets of increasing size and sophistication have disastrous consequences on the fish targeted and inadvertently, all other marine life. Overfishing has reduced many stocks of large fish by 90 per cent.\nPollution: Sewage, pesticides, plastics and petroleum are dumped into the sea or make their way into the sea through rivers and air currents. Dead zones are being created through\nresulting oxygen depletion.\nMining: As near-shore deposits of oil and gas run low, companies are venturing into deeper waters, causing oil spills and release of hydrocarbons and other contaminants into the ocean. Mineral exploration of deep sea beds is also underway.\nASB Season of Under The Mountain\nRelive the magic of award-winning novel and hit 80s TV...\nRelive the magic of award-winning novel and hit 80s TV... more\nSave the Kiwi Month\nCelebrate New Zealand's national icon this October\nCelebrate New Zealand's national icon this October more\nThe white shirt that can save lives\nWitchery and the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation have...\nWitchery and the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation have... more\nSave Tiny Hearts this Sweetheart Day\nLook for the blue hearts and help support HeartKids on...\nLook for the blue hearts and help support HeartKids on... more",

        "raw_content": "On January 29, 2017, Rev. Tony Ponticello addressed the assembled people at the Community Miracles Center Sunday Gathering in San Francisco, CA. What follows is a lightly edited transcription of that talk.\nOkay! Once again, thank you so much for joining us. I'm very happy that you are here! Thank you all on ACIM Gather, and thank you all who are watching this on YouTube! It's great that you are doing that. We always love getting your comments that you post after you watch on YouTube. So thank you all.\nThis is the last week in January, and I feel that I am through the holidays now. I got through the holiday excitement and chaos that existed. One of the things that people like to do, and that I actually like to do, is set resolutions and goals at the beginning of the year. What I have learned is that it works a little better for me to wait to get through the holiday madness, the holiday energy. Then I am a little more centered, maybe peaceful, and can then better tune into the Holy Spirit. I can set my goals and resolutions with the Holy Spirit's guidance. I don't want to set them from my chaotic ego mind.\nA Course in Miracles says the first thing to consider very simply is \"\u2018What do I want to come of this? What is it for?' The clarification of the goal belongs at the beginning.\" (OrEd.Tx.17.58) What do I want to come of this year? What is this year for?\nAlso going on for the Community Miracles Center, Rev. Kelly, and myself \u2013 starting at the end of the last year and going into this new year \u2013 the Community Miracles Center was moving. We moved from our office that we had been in for 30 years. We moved out of the space that we had been having meetings in for 30 years. That of course added to the hecticness, or the chaos, of the activity. When we did that, because we were moving into a much smaller office space, I had to go through everything from our big office space, all the files in all the file cabinets, and get rid of things.\nThat included a tremendous amount of paper documents that we had been accumulating for 30 plus years. You can imagine the amount of paper work that an organization that is this active would have accumulated. I brought several loads in my car packed full of papers to the recycling place down in the Hunter's Point area of the city. We also packed our recycling cans full, full, full for weeks and weeks and weeks. There was a tremendous amount of paper that we threw away. I went through everything to make sure I wasn't throwing anything important away, but also just to complete the experience of it all. That was wonderful for me. It was very relieving for me. I got to complete certain things and say, \"Okay, I am done with that.\"\nWhen I think about what this year is going to be about, what I keep getting is to truly challenge myself with some of the more difficult teachings of A Course in Miracles, especially the teaching that says there is no death and that the son of God is free. I want to embrace teachings that really talk about how we are not our aging bodies. The only reason why our body goes through this aging process that seems to end in death is because of thoughts that we are having, but A Course in Miracles implies that a different experience can be had. I don't know if that means physical immortally, but I certainly want to not limit my bodily experience to a life that has this certain course where it gets older, begins to lose vitality, and then eventually it passes. I want to really open myself up to other experiences.\nMaybe you have been listening to some of the recent teachings when I have talked about this. I have challenged the idea of death, and that we have to go through these death experiences, certainly the way they seem to be. Some people have been communicating with me and they challenged me on this. One person in particular said if you looked at all of the perennial wisdoms, all the world's great philosophies and religions, you don't find anything in them that talks about physical immortality. First of all, I didn't think I was talking about physical immortality. I was implying that I am at least open to the possibility. I don't know what there is, and I don't want to limit the bodily experience to what I know. This person said that if you look at the perennial wisdoms, none of them have that idea. A Course in Miracles is one of the profound perennial wisdoms, and he thought that I was misinterpreting it, thinking that I was leaning towards the physical immortality idea.\nThat got me thinking about perennial wisdoms and perennial philosophies that I have studied. Does A Course in Miracles fit into them? That is the idea that I am going to challenge us with. I am going to put the idea on the shelf for just a minute while I talk about a perennial philosophy that had been very significant for me. The one that I truly embraced, it was probably my first real spiritual program that I embraced, was the study of the Tao Te Ching. I studied the Tao Te Ching for many years when I was in my late twenties. Now the Tao Te Ching is spelled T-a-o T-e C-h-i-n-g. Some people see name and pronounce this like a \"T,\" and some people pronounce it as a \"D.\" The truth is that Chinese does not differentiate between \"T\" and \"D,\" so you really have to try to aim in between those two sounds so it is Tao Te Ching. You can think about that and practice that. If you can get that right you can sound like a Chinese person because you will be using the \"T-D\" sound.\nThe story of how Tao Te Ching was written is a myth. It was written about 600 years before the birth of who we think of as Jesus, or the Common Era now, by a man named Lao Tzu. That will give you a little bit of history. The myth is \u2013 and there is no way that any of this can be proven \u2013 but the myth of Taoism, Lao Tzu and the Tao Te Ching is this. Lao Tzu was the librarian of the royal court for the king. As the librarian, of course, Lao Tzu was literate. Lao Tzu could read and a lot of the people in that era, 600 years before the Common Era, could not read. Therefore Lao Tzu had access to all the great wisdom that was there to be had. He was said to be a very wise man himself, and people came to him for council. The king came to Lao Tzu for council on how to rule the land. Apparently Lao Tzu gave the king a lot of wise council over the years. The king and others kept asking Lao Tzu, as he became older, to write down his wisdom so that when he made his transition the wisdom of Lao Tzu would be preserved. Lao Tzu always refused this and said he would not do it because it could not be written down. But at a certain point when Lao Tzu was older and received the guidance to go off and make his transition wherever \u2013 to live the last part of his life in a different way \u2013 Lao Tzu finally acquiesced and wrote down the wisdom that he had. What Lao Tzu finally wrote down were 81 short, almost \"poem-like\" essays. They were very short, and that is what the Tao Te Ching is. It is the collection of these 81 little poems.\nThe thing to remember is that Lao Tzu was also writing these essays specifically for the king. So in them there is a lot of teaching about how to be a wise ruler. There are other teachings in there, but it is definitely geared toward how to be a wise ruler. One of the great quotations from the Tao Te Ching, which a lot of people know, is that great governing of a nation is like cooking a small fish. Too much handling will spoil it. So a lot of the teaching of Taoism is about giving things a light touch. Don't over do it; step back a bit. Give it a light touch.\n\"Tao,\" the word itself, means \"the way\" but it also means more than that. It is the way of the totality and the way of the divine, though they probably wouldn't use that word. The word \"Tao\" actually becomes synonymous with the divine, but also implied with Tao is this flow. This will, this flow, is there always. You always should remember this aspect of Tao when you think about it \u2013 this flow. It is like the way a stream flows, or a river flows. \"Te\" itself means virtue, and \"Ching\" means great book. So it is the flow, the way of virtue. This is the great book that teaches that, the Tao Te Ching way, the flow. Our own vernacular of the idea of \"go with the flow\" is actually a very Taoist idea. When you go with the flow you don't fight the current.\nSo getting back to this idea of perennial philosophies and perennial wisdoms. What exactly does that mean? It refers to this idea which I looked up. \"Perennialism, is a perspective in the philosophy of religion which views each of the world's religious traditions as sharing a single, metaphysical truth or origin from which all esoteric and exoteric knowledge and doctrine has grown.\" (Wikipedia) Perennialism was made popular by a book written by Aldous Huxley in 1945 titled \"The Perennial Philosophy\" where he popularized this idea. It had been around but he popularized it \u2013 that all the world's religions, when you go to their core, have all been inspired by the same revelation. We have accepted this, and it is very spiritually correct to say this. If you say this everyone will nod nicely \u2013 that all the world's religions come from this same inspiration. The trouble with this is I don't think it is true. It also leads to some practices that are probably pretty questionable. Maybe it is true in an absolute sense, but that absolute sense is so hard to connect to, that it becomes not a very practical thing and not a very practical idea. It is something to think about.\nI did want to read one of the little poems in the Tao Te Ching. This is Chapter 25 and it says.\n\"There is a thing, a gathering which existed prior to heaven and earth,\nSilent, empty, existing by itself, unchanging,\nPervading everywhere, inexhaustible.\nIt might be called the mother of the world.\nIts name is unknown. I simply call it Tao.\nIf I were to exert myself to define it I would call it great.\nGreat means extended to the limitless.\nExtending to the limitless means reaching to the extreme distance.\nReaching the extreme distance means returning to nearness.\nThus Tao is great, heaven is great, earth is great, and the king is great too.\"\nThat is a typical chapter in the Tao Te Ching. For several years, around 35 to 40 years ago, I called myself a Taoist. That was the spiritual discipline I embraced. This was when I moved to San Francisco. When I moved to San Francisco the only book I brought with me was this particular edition of the Tao Te Ching that I had in my backpack on the plane. (Rev. Tony holds up his well-worn, and faded brown, paperback edition of the Tao Te Ching.) I still have this same book. It is the only book I brought with me. I moved here very light, because I was a Taoist. I was living lightly on the land, two suitcases and a backpack. I was a minimalist which Taoist frequently are, and I lived simply or I at least tried to live simply. It served me very well for many many years.\nI probably wouldn't have been able to move to San Francisco with just two suitcases and a backpack had I not been a Taoist. I was practicing with the idea of being a minimalist. I was going with that flow of thought. I came here with very little money. I came here with probably a couple of a hundred dollars in my wallet. I knew no one. I only had a place to stay for a couple nights with friends of friends who I really didn't know. I had two thousand dollars in a bank account that I was going to have wired to me after I had set up a bank account here in San Francisco. I didn't have access to that two thousand dollars for about two weeks. I just lived off the couple hundred dollars. It was a \"ballsy\" thing to do. Being a Taoist served me at that time, but I don't consider myself a Taoist anymore. I am not going with the flow. I don't consider that I go with the flow. I actually think I go against the flow. I am not going the way the water flows. I think I am doing something else.\nHow does the water flow? The way the water flows means we have to look at how we live our lives. Let's do something secular. How do we live our lives in the terms of our relationships, in the terms of love? What do we do when we want more love in our lives? Well, most people would say you have to be vulnerable. In other words, you have to be open to being hurt possibly. You have to open yourself up to pain. People have difficulty doing that so they shut themselves down. They are not vulnerable and so they do not have love in their lives. This a very common thought of the world. This is the way relationships flow in the world.\nA Course in Miracles has a very different thought. A Course in Miracles is teaching us to love without ambivalence. Love without that idea that there is an attendant amount of vulnerability that is needed, that there is an attendant amount of pain or fear that might be around, circulating around the love. Generally, we open ourselves up to be vulnerable and then we find somebody \u2013 someone or sometimes some things \u2013 that don't appear to cause us too much pain. And they don't, usually in the beginning. Then we embrace those things. We think that these must be the chosen ones, because we are not feeling the pain, and we were vulnerable. However, inevitably because we were defending against the pain, pain comes into our experience at some point.\nA Course in Miracles tells us \"No one considers it bizarre to love and hate together, and even those who believe that hate is sin merely feel guilty and do not correct it. \u2013 This is the \u2018natural' condition of the separation, and those who learn that it is not natural at all seem to be the unnatural ones.\" (OrEd.Tx.16.44-45) If you love like A Course in Miracles tells you to love, you are going to seem unnatural. That is because you are going against the flow of the way society, the world, generally sees love. It isn't just about how you love and how many you love. It is about the attitude that we hold for love itself \u2013 that love is just this joyful, wonderful, happy, simple, natural thing that you don't have to be vulnerable for. You just have to be open to, and indulge in. You jump in the water, and splash around in it. It is like that. You know there is an old song that I love. We will be singing it later on. It was by Foreigner and it's called \"I Want to Know What Love Is.\" Mariah Carey popularized it a few years ago. I think it talks about that idea. It says:\n\"In my life there's been heartache and pain.\nCan't stop now, I've traveled so far,\nI want you to show me.\"\nI want a different kind of experience of love that doesn't have this attendant fear, anger, and pain that we are always defending ourselves from and that we have to be vulnerable to experience. We think we know we are going to be hurt, and then we are going to shut down at some point as we get older. It is all those attendant ideas that are the flow we need to go against. Yes, we need to go against that flow. That flow is not healthy. My life is not like cooking a small fish. It just really isn't. If I clung to Taoism because it served me well 37 years ago, it would be like clinging to all those papers at the 2269 Market St. office that I went through and threw out.\nI think it has been really good for me to review Taoism. There are certainly a lot of good things in that teaching. However I don't believe that all those perennial philosophies are actually the same, or that this is a practical idea to hold. In many ways these philosophies are very, very different. We have to embrace what A Course in Miracles teaches, not what all the other philosophies teach. It might be good to know what they teach and to see what is useful, but we've got to embrace one. That is part of the problem in putting too much emphasis on the perennial wisdom, perennial philosophies idea, because it makes them all the same so why bother to really devote yourself to one. They are all the same, right?\nI think it fosters a lazy spirituality. I don't have to do the work because they are all going to the same place so it doesn't really matter. It does matter and they are not all going to the same place. A Course in Miracles has a lot of teaching about doing stuff, not going with the flow, being on the Great Crusade, being a part of the Great Awakening. It's about disrupting the flow. A Course in Miracles says \"You are not making use of the course if you insist on using means which have served others well, neglecting what was made for you.\" (OrEd.Tx.18.68) If A Course in Miracles is your path, and was made for you, then you have to engage in it. You have to use those means. Don't use means just becasue they have served others well. Allow those means to serve the others. Don't use means that served you well years ago if they are not right for you now.\nI am not going to devote myself to Taoism. It served me well 38 years ago. It wouldn't serve me well now. It served me well when I didn't know what Holy Spirit wanted for my life. I would set goals with my ego mind, and Taoism served me well in that consciousness. I don't do that anymore. I set goals with the Holy Spirit's guidance. Sometimes you need to think big and sometimes you need to go against the flow.\nPerennial philosophy is a kind of reductionism. You reduce everything to its lowest common denominator and that is the trouble. It is the lowest form of spirituality you can probably get, and it is not going to take you very far. At a certain point you do something else. I talk to people about A Course in Miracles and that there are 365 daily lessons designed to do one a day. Then some people say, \"Reduce it down to one lesson for me.\" They want the one lesson to do, but there isn't one lesson, there are 365 of them. I could sum it up or say something profound. It's just not there.\nGo with the flow, live lightly, rule with a gentle hand. I question that. The flow is flowing you right to disillusion and death. You do not want to go with that flow. The way water flows is right into the sewer! You do not want to necessarily go with that flow. You want to change the flow. You want to be the Tao that is guided by Spirit. This will have the current that you move it into. You want to be the movement. You certainly don't want to be the Tao that is reflected in nature. Nature is trying to kill us. Also the way water flows is not always a gentle stream. Sometimes water in a stream flows right into the rocks, and sometimes that creates a lot of white water and rapids. Sometimes there are huge violent waterfalls. So the way water flows is maybe not as idyllic as we might think. There is an eternal Tao that you want to connect with. You need to connect to that flow. Don't look for it out in the world though. Don't look to the world to teach you what that is. You have to go within, connect with that Tao within.\nIt is January and it is time to think about what we want this year to be about. Go within and find the Tao that is there within. Don't be the way the water flows. Be the flow; be the water. Go within. Chart your own course. Create your own flow. You are the Tao.(applause) \u2665\n1.

        "raw_content": "Harvey's comeback honored by peers\nRight-hander takes home Players Choice NL Comeback Player of the Year Award\nNEW YORK -- Matt Harvey's successful return from Tommy John surgery continues to earn him accolades throughout the baseball world. On Monday, Harvey received the Players Choice Award for National League Comeback Player of the Year, after missing all of last season recovering from his operation.\n\"It's unbelievable. I couldn't be more honored,\" Harvey said on MLB Network. \"The most important thing about this, it gives hope to young kids and other players coming back for injury. A huge honor, I can't thank my peers enough.\"\n\u2022 Players Choice Awards unveiled\nThe award completes a trifecta for Harvey, who previously won Major League Baseball's Comeback Player of the Year Award and The Sporting News' version of the same hardware, and puts him in position to sweep the category with a win in the Esurance MLB Awards -- voting runs through Friday at MLB.com.

Winners receive a donation for the charity of their choice.\nA finalist alongside Colorado's Carlos Gonzalez and Cincinnati's Joey Votto, both of whom also battled injuries last season, Harvey won on the strength of his 13-8 record and a 2.71 ERA. Experiencing just one brief down trend in his first season back from Tommy John surgery, Harvey also shined with a 2-0 record and a 3.04 ERA during the postseason.\nThe most significant hiccup of Harvey's season came off the field, when he briefly committed to agent Scott Boras' recommendation of a 180-inning hard limit in his first year back. Amid significant public backlash, Harvey eventually changed his tune, finishing with 216 innings between the season and postseason.\n\"You want to be a horse and go out there,\" Harvey said recently. \"You look at guys who have thrown 230 innings year after year after year. That's who I've always wanted to be.\"\nHarvey and the Mets credit his success to the fact that he waited until 17 months after surgery to return to competitive game action, as opposed to the 11 months he originally considered.\n\"Once I decided I wanted to have surgery, all those doubts and thoughts -- and especially negative thoughts -- definitely went out the window,\" Harvey said. \"I knew I was going to go see the best surgeon in the world and have the best staff behind me and training program. From then on, it was kind of a no-doubter that I knew I'd be back.\"\nThough light trade speculation has swirled around Harvey already this offseason, he is under team control for three more seasons and is a strong bet to return to the Mets. He'll anchor an Opening Day rotation that should also include Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard and Steven Matz.",

        "raw_content": "Chris Briley: Green architect, big thinker\nFind out what green architect and Mainer Chris Briley thinks about sustainable design, passive home heating, and the cost difference between conventional and greener homes.\nChris Briley\nChris Briley is a practitioner of what he calls \"architecture for life\", or the idea that architecture should be beautiful, timeless, sustainable, and in harmony with its surroundings. He's the principal architect at the Yarmouth, Maine-based Green Design Studio and a prominent figure in the Maine green building scene. He is LEED accredited and built the first LEED Gold certified home in New England. He helped start the Maine chapter of the US Green Building Council and is a host of the Green Architects' Lounge, a popular podcast the focuses on environmentally friendly design.\nChris graduated from Ball State University in 1994 with degrees in architecture and environmental design and quickly went to work helping design a new manufacturing facility for Tom's of Maine as well as O'Naturals restaurant (now Stoneyfield Cafe), a local green-leaning favorite. He designed the Harmony House, a beautifully built home that was featured in Fine Homebuilding's Houses issue.\nI first met Chris a few years ago when I hired him to design a green housing development that got waylaid by the sagging real estate market. I loved his enthusiasm and passion for green design and thought he was a pretty cool guy to boot.\nHere are seven questions answered by my friend and green architect Chris Briley.\nWhat's the coolest project you're working on right now?\nCurrently, I\u2019m working on a Passivhaus in Saco. For those who are not familiar with the passivhaus standard, it is house whose energy demand is so low that it does not need a boiler, or furnace. On the coldest day here in Maine (and they can get very cold) you would need about as much energy as the output of a hair dryer, or the body heat of a nice-sized dinner party. The most exciting part, is having a client who is very knowledgeable and committed to meeting this stringent standard and eager to share his knowledge and experience with others. My client, himself, is starting a blog and he plans to maintain it throughout the design and construction process, and even beyond, through the first years of living in the Home.\nDo most of your clients come to you ready to build green or do you find yourself educating them on greener directions to take?\nI have the best clients. I\u2019m not just pandering to my clientele here. I\u2019m truly lucky. By the time they have walked through the doors of the my office, the Green Design Studio, they have already taken the most important step. They\u2019ve decided that\u2019s it\u2019s important, even smart, to build to a greener standard than what they can ordinarily find on the market. They are great students and very thoughtful people, eager to learn more, explore options, and invest wisely in their home. So, yes, they are ready, and also yes I do find myself educating them on how to build a greener home.\nWhat advice would you give a young architect interested in taking the greener path?\nSeek advice, because there is always a smarter greener way to do things. I\u2019ve learned fantastic things from mentors, colleuges, clients, builders, and quirky old guys who tinker with their houses. Also, keep your passion. The status quo has immense inertia, and it takes tremendous force to budge it towards a more sustainable direction. At times it will be daunting, tiring, and frustrating. It is one\u2019s passion for this stuff that makes one step back square up and put your shoulder hard against it again.\nGreen is what you just did. Greener is what you\u2019re about to do.\nYou bet it does. It\u2019s the only one we have. I don\u2019t think it takes a politician making a full feature movie to make people realize the trouble we are in anymore. Right about the same time our planet\u2019s population reaches 9 billion, we will be running out of cheap oil. Throw in the projected climate crisis and that\u2019s going to be a real rough patch, and it will be in my daughters\u2019 life time! No one likes, hearing bad news, being told to be more responsible, or sit through a preachy paragraph like this one, but we\u2019re on the brink of a serious culture shift. We can shift it on our terms, or we can wait and shift out of desperation later.\nWho is one person doing good in the world (besides yourself) who we should know about and why?\nThat is a really good question. I feel like, later I\u2019ll think of another name that I should have said, or even another later than that. Right now, because we\u2019re talking about architecture I really want to say Nader Kahlili. Sadly he died in 2008 but his son and daughter are carrying on his work. He was an American, but born in Iran, where he returned earlier in his career to help a town rebuild after being devastated by a series of earthquakes. He was determined to find an archetype that could be native to the region, cheap, handmade, strong, and beautiful. He realized that one of the structures that seemed unharmed by the earthquakes was the structure in which bricks fired. The building itself was a kiln. Through the kiln firing process the building, which was itself a brick dome, fused together to form one solid dome structure. He realized that what the people of this region had in abundance, was the earth and clay to make bricks. All they needed was a lesson in building masonry domes (a science that is ancient and that the Persians could even claim as their own). Soon the town was being rebuilt, by the people themselves with beautiful dome structures, that were sealed, fired, and then truly lived in.\nHe was later approached by NASA in the eighties to develop housing for Lunar residents. Could he apply his same creative logic to the lunar landscape? Could he use what was found on the moon to construct housing for astronauts that arrived for an extended stay? He came up with a sand bag system. The astronauts could bring a sand bagging machine and large light, empty high-tech fabric tubes. In the low gravity the astronauts could make lots of moon dust sandbag tubes, and coil them into domes, then inflate an airtight \u201cballoon\u201d structure inside. The thick lunar dome would protect the inflated structure from the extreme temperatures, and the shape and material of the domes could flex with ease, but without strain or failure. Best of all, most of the material was already on the moon waiting for the astronauts to arrive.\nBut here\u2019s the best part, Nader Kahlili walked away thinking. We could do that here on earth! And he founded the California Institute of earth art where he taught (and where others are still teaching) not only how to build by hand beautiful sand bag houses that are literally dirt cheap, but his philosophy of ethical architecture.\n(Shea's note: I asked Chris to come up with and answer his own question here) How much more does a \u2018Green\u2019 house cost than a \u2018Non-Green\u2019 house?\nI get some form of this question a lot, and it\u2019s very difficult to answer (and frankly, it drives me crazy, so I offer it as the question in the hopes of getting the answer \u2018out there\u2019 for others.) It\u2019s like asking how much more is a fuel efficient car than a regular car. It varies widely based on one\u2019s definition of fuel \u201cefficient\u201d as well as all of the other variables that contribute to a car\u2019s value.\nTo answer this question for someone requires a long conversation in order to get an understanding for the type of home one is talking about. If the home is to be a \u2018Net-Zero\u2019 or \u2018Passivhaus\u2019 the increase in upfront cost could be substantial. (But of course, so will the savings during occupancy) If one is just trying to save 30% on energy consumption (over a code compliant house) with environmentally friendly materials, then it depends on houses being compared. If you\u2019re comparing it to a custom-built and designed home the cost increase would be almost negligible. If you were comparing it to a big-vinyl-box type of home that you\u2019d see in a spec subdivision, the cost could be 25 to 50% more.\nRelated topics: MNN Profiles\nFind out what green architect and Mainer Chris Briley thinks about sustainable design, passive home heating, and the cost difference between conventional and gr",

        "raw_content": "HUD Update of Manufactured Home Standards Coming Soon?\nThe U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development apparently is about to publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that would update the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards by adopting certain recommendations made to HUD by the Manufactured Housing Consensus Committee, known as MHCC. The agency has a proposed rule currently under OIRA review, with an NPRM to be published in September 2017.\nAccording to the reginfo.gov website, the proposed rule is based on the third set of MHCC recommendations to update and improve various aspects of the Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards. It would add new standards that would establish requirements for carbon monoxide detection, stairways, fire safety considerations for attached garages, and for draftstops when there is a usable space above and below the concealed space of a floor/ceiling assembly, and it also would establish requirements for venting systems to ensure that proper separation is maintained between the air intake and exhaust systems.\nMHCC is a statutory Federal Advisory Committee body charged with providing recommendations to the HUD secretary on the revision and interpretation of the standards and related procedural and enforcement regulations. Manufactured homes \u2013 in the past referred to as single-wide and double-wide mobile homes are factory-built houses built to the specifications of HUD's federal building code.\nModular Homes are not built to the HUD Standards.\nThey are built according to the location they are being placed.\nOOPS! Thanks Dennis. Somehow I missed that in the editing.\nMobile homes are different now. Before, when you mention mobile homes, they think you are living in a trailer pack or somewhere obscure. I don't mean to demean anybody but the stigma of mobile homes is real. No wonder that with social media and live videos, people can see that mobile, as well as modular homes are different. They are \"real\" in the sense that they have value just like a traditional home. For more of information on this, see; http://modularhomeblog.com/prefab-mobile/mobile-home-living.html",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Blog / Mindset / Money and Your Mind: Interview with David Levin, author\nThe deciding factor for success\nI teach people from all walks of life how to become financially independent. I\u2019ve been doing it formally for seven years and, prior to that, informally for friends and family for over a decade. I\u2019ve found only one universal make-or-break factor that determines the likelihood of your financial success.\nIt\u2019s not how much you earn.\nIt\u2019s not the investments you choose.\nIt\u2019s not luck or timing.\nIt\u2019s discipline.\nYour financial success hinges on your ability to decide what is best for your money, then do it. Consistently. It relies on you not throwing in the towel when you slip up, like the dieter who succumbs to a square of chocolate then throws their hands in the air cyring \u2018May as well eat the whole block now!\u2019 It depends on the hundred small things you do each day, week and year that add up to life-changing habits.\nThe single most important work you can do to help you be financially successful is master your mind. Or, as David Levin puts it, master cognitive control, emotional self-regulation, and impulse control. For this reason, I am thrilled to introduce you to David and his book \u2018Raise Your Inner Game\u2018.\nAbout the book: Raise Your Inner Game\nIf you\u2019ve read this blog before, you\u2019ll know I don\u2019t do \u2018woo woo\u2019. I prefer logical, pragmatic and action-oriented suggestions, which is why I generally steer clear of the typical mindset stuff. Then I had the opportunity to read an early copy of David\u2019s book. Now I can finally recommend a mindset resource for those that want it. Hooray!\nTo quote the blurb:\n\u201cForget the old-school \u201cmotivation\u201d and pop-psychology that fills so many self-improvement books\u2014it\u2019s out of date and, honestly, doesn\u2019t work that well in the first place. What you need to thrive in today\u2019s distracting, fast-paced world are three, fundamental self-mastery skills\u2014cognitive control, emotional self-regulation, and impulse control. Together, these skills are the Holy Grail of personal development, and Raise Your Inner Game presents the world\u2019s first method for developing all three.\n\u201cUsing engaging stories and a clear, no-nonsense style, QBQ! co-author David Levin has crafted a practical yet powerful guide for how to:\nControl your negative thoughts and emotions\nShut out distractions and stay focused\nLive more intentionally\nAccess your most creative and innovative ideas\nPerform better under pressure\nBe more emotionally resilient\nStrengthen your willpower and self-control\n\u201cWhether you\u2019re driven to be your best and to make a bigger difference in the world or you just want to be happier and have more control of your life, Raise Your Inner Game gives you the blueprint and the tools.\u201d\nIf you can master these habits and apply them to your finances, you will dramatically improve your chances of financial success.\nAbout the author: David Levin\nIn 1992, David Levin was a struggling singer-songwriter whose career (and life) were going nowhere. But then he had a strange and illuminating experience that totally changed the arc of his life. Four albums, five books, and twenty-nine years of happy marriage later, he\u2019s condensed what he\u2019s learned into a simple, practical guide for how to be stronger, mentally and emotionally, so that you can do your best work and live a life you\u2019re proud of every day.\nDavid is the co-author (with John G. Miller) of the million-selling book QBQ! The Question Behind the Question, the author of Don\u2019t Just Talk, Be Heard! and the creator of the Focused! Every Day training program. He is also an award-winning songwriter and recording artist, and lives happily ever after in Viroqua, Wisconsin, with his wife and their two children.\nThe interview: habits that can change your financial future\nTo say this book has had a profound impact on my life is an understatement. I may have finances sorted (as you\u2019d hope!) but I\u2019m not nearly as disciplined in other areas of my life and it bugs me. I\u2019ve tried meditation, gratitude journals and mindfulness practices before with varying (usually disappointing) results. The lessons I learned in David\u2019s book were a revelation and for the last six months I\u2019ve experienced a dramatic improvement in my problem areas.\nIn experiencing that change, I realised the implications for those who don\u2019t have their money stuff sorted could be huge. I was absolutely thrilled when David agreed to let me interview him about how to apply the techniques he recommends to the specific area of personal finance.\nIn this interview, we talk about common money mindset problems and habits, and David delivers enormous value with excellent advice and pragmatic activities you can do to turn those habits around. Enjoy!\nhttps://www.moneyschool.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Interview.mp3\nYou can buy Raise Your Inner Game on Amazon, iBooks or Audible, or request it from your local library (if they don\u2019t have it, they will usually order it) \u2013 and I recommend that you do!\nTags: David Levin, mindset, Raise Your Inner Game",

        "raw_content": "Alice Parker, (b. 1925) internationally renowned composer, conductor and teacher, studied composition and conducting at Smith College and the Juilliard School where she began her long association with Robert Shaw. The many Parker/Shaw settings of American folksongs, hymns and spirituals from that period form an enduring repertoire for choruses all around the world.\nHer list of published compositions has over five hundred titles, ranging from operas through song cycles, cantatas and choral suites to many individual anthems. She has been commissioned by hundreds of community, school and church choruses, and her works appear in the catalogs of a dozen publishing companies. Each year she tours the United States and Canada, leading performances and workshops on improvisation, rehearsal techniques and score study. To take part in one of her SINGS is to have a rare experience of group improvisation, remarkable for its high level of musical sound.\nIn 1985, with the founding of MELODIOUS ACCORD, INC,. she focused her activities on the heart of vocal music: the melody. The Musicians of MELODIOUS ACCORD, a sixteen-voice professional chorus, has released fourteen albums in the last two decades. Through the Melodious Accord Fellowship Program, mid-career professional musicians are brought together for inspiration and refreshment in their teaching, composing and conducting under her mentorship. The organization also sponsors workshops,symposia, Parker appearances, and publishes an e-Newsletter.\nNow a resident of western Massachusetts, Parker has published books on melodic styles, choral improvisation and church music. The Anatomy of Melody (2006) and The Answering Voice (2014) set forth her views on a compositional universe that begins in song, and flowers in musical conversations. The Melodious Accord Hymnal (2010) contains brief versions of many American folk hymns, as well as her own settings of contemporary poets. The second edition of her classic essays on song leading and congregational singing, Melodious Accord: Good Singing in Church, appeared in 2013.\nAlice Parker has served on the Board of Directors of Chorus America and was named their first Director Laureate. In 2013 she received the Robert Shaw Award from the American Choral Directors Association and in 2015 the Harvard Glee Club Foundation Medal. Named Distinguished Composer of the Year 2000 by the American Guild of Organists, she is also a Fellow of the Hymn Society of the United States and Canada. She is the recipient of six honorary doctorates and the Smith College Medal as well as grants from ASCAP, the National Endowment for the Arts, The Aaron Copland Fund for Music, and the American Music Center.\nRemembering Dr. King by turning to composer Alice Parker's tribute, A Sermon From the Mountain.

        "title": "11 Reasons Why Apple Will Reject Your App",
        "raw_content": "11 Reasons Why Apple Will Reject Your App When Submitted For Review\nHiral Atha Published : Feb 22, 2016\nIt is not uncommon for iOS developers to think that just having a brilliant app concept will get their appseasily published on the App Store. This is often the case for newbie developers if not for the experienced ones. They conveniently forget that there are many hurdles to cross before their apps make way to the App Store and earn accolades. One of the hurdles is Apple\u2019s review process.\nWhile Apple has come a long way ever since its inception and the launch of the very first app on the App Store, some things still haven\u2019t changed. This includes the Cupertino-based tech-giant\u2019s obsession with quality and finesse. It emphasizes the same when it comes to apps submitted for review. And even when everything is done to perfection by the developers and designers, there is still no guarantee that the app will be approved or the exact duration taken by the reviewers to approve the app. This is because the curation of an app is a highly complex process with all the reins held by Apple.\nAfter all, separating the wheat from the chaff takes time!\nHowever, certain websites such as App Review Times, track average App Store review times for iOS as well as Mac App Store. Created by Shiny Development, the website gets the data crowdsourced from developers. According to the latest statistics on the website, Apple takes as many as 7 days on an average to approve iOS apps, which is based on 267 reviews in the last 14 days. This data may tend to vary over a period of time, depending on various factors and there are always exceptions such as the app, which was approved in 2 hours!\nAnd yet, this still doesn\u2019t answer the question that lingers in the minds of iOS developers \u2013 what are the reasons for Apple to reject an app.\nAlthough it is not apparent as to what exactly are the steps involved in Apple\u2019s review policy for approving apps on the App Store, here is a list of reasons which explain why it may reject an app that has been submitted for review:\nIf there is one thing that can taint your image as an app developer, then it has to be bugs in the app and most certainly, Apple will reject any app that contains bugs or crashes. Therefore, make it a point to completely and thoroughly test your app to check for bugs and crashes before you submit it for review.\nAny link within your app should be functional. Right from the user support link to subscription links to your privacy policy, the links need to work. Any sort of broken link in the app will ultimately lead to its rejection by Apple.\n3. Placeholder content\nBefore sending your app for review, make sure that all the images and text in the app are complete. Apple will reject apps that appear to be \u2018in progress\u2019 with not ready to be distributed placeholder content.\nDon\u2019t forget to specify all the details required for reviewing your app in the App Review Information section. There may be some features in the section, where you may need to sign in. In such cases, enter a valid username and password. When it comes to special configurations, don\u2019t forget to include the specifics. Similarly, you might need to provide a demo video when requested for a hard-to-replicate environment. The same holds true for hardware. It is also essential that you furnish latest contact information.\n5. Wrong descriptions\nClearly mention your app\u2019s functionalities in its description as well as in the screenshots. This is important as it helps users get a better understanding of the app and gives them a positive App Store experience.\n6. Misleading users\nAnother crucial thing you need to understand before going ahead with your app\u2019s submission is \u2013 not misleading the users. In essence, the app should deliver all the features and functionalities mentioned; it should live up to the expectations of the users.\n7. Average UI\nApple rejects anything that is substandard, including the apps submitted for review. Thus, it goes without saying that you need to make sure that your app has a neat, user-friendly interface that speaks tons about its quality. It also needs to abide by Apple\u2019s design guidelines as well as UI design dos and don\u2019ts.\nEnsure that all the ads served by your app are displayed properly by testing it on several devices. Apple may reject apps that do not display ads properly. Additionally, you need to ensure that your app uses IDFA (Advertising Identifier) to serve advertisements along with ad functionality. In the absence of the latter, your app may get rejected. In the same way, when you indicate that your app doesn\u2019t use the IDFA, but it does, then it will be put in the \u201cInvalid Binary\u201d status. So, you need to make sure that you don\u2019t get on the wrong foot when it comes to advertisements.\nApple wants each of its apps to be engaging and useful to the users. It also expects app developers and designers to make the best use of the unique features of iOS when it comes to websites, web content and web interactions. This is something you need to remember at the time of submitting your app for review.\n10. Repeated submission of similar apps\nWhen you submit a number of apps, which are similar in their features and functionalities, it automatically increases the chances of the apps getting rejected. What you can do is work on the apps, unify them into one app with the best features and then submit it for reviewing.\n11. Low shelf life\nApple wants its apps to appeal to a broad spectrum of users. Therefore, when your app doesn\u2019t offer much in terms of features and functionalities or when it only appeals and applies to a niche market, there are chances that it may not get approved. Hence, before submitting your app, make it a point at the category of your app and work on how your app justifies that category in the best possible way.\nEven with a number of strict guidelines that developers need to follow, Apple plays fair. When it rejects an app, it mails developers a list of the errors that led to the rejection. This gives developers a chance to rework on their app and submit it once more, sans the errors. The next time though. Apple takes considerably less time to approve the app (when errors are NIL).\nIt ultimately boils down to adhering to Apple\u2019s design, development and review guidelines followed by waiting. What is your take on Apple\u2019s app review policy? Have any word of wisdom for new developers? Share your thoughts with us via your comments.\n(Image Credit \u2013 1, 2)",

        "raw_content": "I just love how many glorious photos I see every day from travelers all over the world who have visited my beautiful homeland. Landscape photography seems to be one of the reasons why people flock here.\nG\u00edsli.\nIceland offers some of the most dramatic, beautiful, mystical and amazing landscapes in the world and I, myself can hardly go a few minutes without grabbing my camera (well, my smart phone at least) and snap away \u2013 and I\u2019m rubbish at landscape photography.\nBut there is a huge difference between a good landscape photo and a magnificent one. So I asked one of my favorite photographers, G\u00edsli Hj\u00e1lmar Svendsen, to give me some much needed advice on how to take the perfect landscape shot.\nSure, his lingo is a bit pro at times, but that\u2019s because he is the ultimate professional when it comes to photography. I\u2019ll hand the keyboard over to G\u00edsli \u2013 read carefully!\n10 photography tips for capturing landscape\nDon\u2019t let the sunshine fool you. There is probably no worse lighting for landscape photography than sunlight. But there are of course exceptions to this rule. If you, for example, want to sharpen the definition in the landscape, sunlight can be of great use.\nG\u00edsli knows what he\u2019s talking about when it comes to photography. @GHS Photography\nThe best brightness conditions are in the twilights zone, at dusk or dawn, and when the sky is overcast. In the case of overcasting, the best lighting can be found when the sun is up because sunlight works as one, gigantic soft-box.\nColors are the most beautiful during the summer time. Brightness is very cold during the winter, i.e. there is a prominent blue tone in the spectrum which is apparent in photos which are taken under these circumstances.\nA tripod is important in any sort of photography. Especially if the photo speed goes below 1/60 seconds. It\u2019s good to use the auto mode and set to 2 or 10 seconds, if you\u2019re using a tripod. Then it\u2019s less likely that the camera will shake when snapping a photo.\nA tight aperture is best when capturing the northern lights. @GHS Photography\nIt\u2019s best to use a tight aperture in landscape photography. Except when photographing in dim light, for example when shooting the northern lights. Then you should use a wide aperture, i.e. f/2.8 or wider. When taking a photo like that you have to use a tripod and a lens with a wide aperture. Most cameras can be set specifically for that type of photography nowadays. An ideal setting is for example: speed: 1/2-4 seconds, ISO 800-1600 and aperture: 1,4-4,0. Please note: This is only a frame of reference. Each photographer has to feel his way along in this type of photography.\nPhotograph waterfalls at a slow speed.\nIt\u2019s good to photograph waterfalls at a slow speed, i.e. at least 1/4 second or slower. By using slow speed you can produce what is called a blur, which creates a silk-like texture on the water. When photographing something that is moving, it\u2019s best to use shutter speed which is 1/250 seconds or faster. With that you ensure the freezing of the natural wonder you\u2019re photographing.\nMake sure your camera lens is clean, without a speck of fluff. It\u2019s also extremely important to use the hood that comes with most lenses nowadays. The hood is especially designed to decrease the lens flare and ghosting, which often happens when photographing in sunlight, and bright light. Lens flare and ghosting often appears in photos and it can be hard to retouch it!\nThe ideal lenses for landscape photography are so-called wide-angle lenses, i.e. lenses that are at least 28mm and up to 12mm. The drawback of the lenses in question is that the wider the lens, the more distorted the illustrative material will be. However, you can retouch it a great deal, using for example Lightroom and Photoshop.\nIn general, flash is a terrible apparatus in landscape photography. But there are of course exceptions to that rule. That especially applies in night time photography, when it suits to have the foreground well lit, cf. when photographing something specific in the foreground, a person and/or an object for example.\nIt\u2019s good to keep in mind that \u201cLess is more\u201d \u2013 that especially applies in landscape photography!\nDramatic, Icelandic nature. @GHS Photography\nFollow G\u00edsli on Facebook for more stunning photos.",

Paul tells us of the things that make up our old selves and need to be discarded as well as what our new self should look like.\n\"Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.\" NIV translation\nIn chapter 2, we saw how Christ's death and resurrection is the answer to the problem of sin in our lives. Because of that, Paul tells us to seek the things of God as that is what it means to \"set your hearts\". This also speaks of an urgency not just a casual waiting for them. We also see from this verse that Jesus is in heaven in the position of honor (the right hand) of God.\n\"Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.\" NIV translation\nWe see that we are also to desire a closer walk with God as our minds are to be focused on pleasing Him.\nWe love Him because He first loved us. We are not to spend our time and affections on the things of this world as they are only temporary.\n\"For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.\" NIV translation\nWhen we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we give up our old selves and the old life is put to death. We are a new creation and we will not fully see or understand that creation until Jesus comes back for us. Our lives in Christ are a constant growth in our understanding of the things of God.\n\"When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.\" NIV translation\nWhen Jesus comes back for His church, we will all be changed to be like Him. We cannot see or fully understand what that means right now but it is our future hope.",

        "raw_content": "4-Koma (Yonkoma) manga is the common manga style where there are four panels (ki, sho, ten, ketsu).\nA \"Moe\" 4-koma is the type featuring cute girls characters (moe meaning \"to be attracted to\"). They often don't follow the ki-sho-ten-ketsu pattern, they just have four panels. Another common feature is a serious lack of male characters. Examples include K-ON, Hidamari Sketch, Lucky Star, Nichijou, Kill Me Baby, Yuyushiki etc. many of which were made into anime.\nHow did these get so common?\nAnswer: Azumanga Daioh by Azuma Kiyohiko (1999 - 2002).\nMost of the above manga are more or less copies of Azumanga Daioh - a group of schoolgirls not doing very much apart from talking with each other. In order to differentiate from Azumanga Daioh, there are small differences. K-ON gave the girls instruments, Lucky Star had an otaku girl as the main character, Hidamari Sketch had girls living in a dorm instead of their homes.\nWhy did Azumanga Daioh get so popular?\nBecause it had a group of attractive girls with wildly different personalities (a loli, a sporty one, an energetic one, a shy one, a lesbian etc. which all became manga staples) and its comedic value. Also of note is the fact that it finished cleanly after four volumes unlike K-ON or Lucky Star.\nThis manga seriously changed the industry in the early 2000s.",

        "title": "The Best Movies About Mental Health | NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Illness",
        "raw_content": "The Best Movies About Mental Health\nBy Laura Greenstein | Dec. 20, 2017\nIt\u2019s becoming increasingly more common for Hollywood to highlight mental health conditions in films. Because mental illness affects millions of Americans, it\u2019s an extremely relatable theme. Sometimes, these movies show mental illness in a way that is inaccurate or stigmatizing. For those in \u201cthe business\u201d who don\u2019t have lived experience, it can be difficult to depict.\nHowever, there are some movies that realistically show what it\u2019s like to experience mental illness. Here\u2019s a list of a few movies that get it right.\nThis movie, based on a true story, highlights the life of John Forbes Nash, Jr. (Russel Crow), a mathematical savant who lived with schizophrenia. The movie beautifully captures the challenges John faced throughout his life, including paranoia and delusions that altered his promising career and deeply affected his life. Through the magic of film, viewers can live John\u2019s hallucinations with him, which feel as real to the audience as they did to him.\nRoy (Nicolas Cage) is a con artist working with his prot\u00e9g\u00e9 to steal a lot of money. While he may be confident in his ability to steal from the rich, he struggles in other aspects of his life. His debilitating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), agoraphobia and panic attacks make it difficult for him to leave his apartment or even open a door. When he discovers he has a 14-year-old daughter, he\u2019s forced to evaluate his career choices and isolated lifestyle. Matchstick Men is an honest depiction of the rituals and behaviors of someone living with OCD.\nYou wouldn\u2019t think a movie set in a mental health hospital could be a comedy. However, this well-crafted film tells the story of 16-year-old Craig (Keir Gilchrist) who checks himself into a psychiatric ward because of his depression and suicidal ideation. He ends up staying in the adult unit because the youth wing is under renovation. The hospital is not a scary place and the patients are not portrayed as \u201cmad\u201d or \u201cinsane\u201d\u2014it\u2019s a safe place where people struggling are getting help, and using humor as a relief from the serious conditions that brought them there. This Hollywood approach to a psychiatric unit may be more comical than any real-life scenario, but it helps normalize the fact that sometimes people need this level of care.\nAfter a stay in a mental health hospital, Pat Solatano (Bradley Cooper) is forced to move back in with his parents. His previously untreated symptoms of bipolar disorder caused him to lose both his wife and job, and he is determined to get his wife back. In his efforts, Pat meets Tiffany (Jennifer Lawrence), who offers to help him in exchange for Pat being her ballroom dance partner. Silver Linings Playbook represents the range of emotion that often occurs with bipolar disorder in a real and riveting way.\nSocially awkward Charlie (Logan Lerman) starts high school isolated and anxious. Luckily, he becomes friends with a group of charismatic seniors, including Sam (Emma Watson) and Patrick (Ezra Miller). His friends bring joy to his life, but his inner turmoil reaches a high when they prepare to leave for college. As the film goes on, we learn more about Charlie\u2019s mental health journey\u2014from his stay in a psychiatric hospital to the details of a childhood trauma. This coming-of-age movie does an exemplary job of showing the highs and lows of growing up with mental illness.\nThe opening scene of Skeleton Twins shows the film\u2019s main characters, Milo (Bill Hader) and Maggie (Kristen Wiig), both attempting suicide. Milo\u2019s attempt lands him in the hospital, which reunites the brother and sister after 10 years of estrangement. Both characters express their depression in candid and humorous ways as they learn to accept each other and themselves.\nCam (Mark Ruffalo), a father with bipolar disorder, becomes the sole caregiver for his two daughters while his wife (Zoe Saldana) goes away to graduate school. Throughout the movie, Cam faces many challenges that make it difficult for him to take care of his daughters. However, despite the severity of his condition (and some unique parenting methods that accompany it), Cam learns that he is a good father who cares deeply for his family. Infinitely Polar Bear is a very meaningful portrayal of how families can be impacted by mental illness.\nAlice (Kristen Wiig) has just decided to go off her medications for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) when she wins the lottery. She impulsively buys her own talk show with the money, in which she shares her opinions with the world. Although portrayed in a humorous way, Alice shows many of the traits of BPD, including mood swings and unstable relationships. As her behavior pushes away the people closest to her\u2014including her therapist\u2014she starts to take her mental health condition more seriously and works to keep her loved ones in her life. In the process, she falsifies the myth that a person with BPD is selfish.\nThis quirky animation personifies the different emotions inside a young girl\u2019s mind. Characters Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust try to help Riley through her family\u2019s move to San Francisco. The emotions learn to work together to help Riley process the turmoil of adjusting to her new life. Inside Out is a clever, modern and well-made film that puts mental health into a new context.\nHopefully, as we continue to spread awareness and education, Hollywood will continue to make movies like the ones in this list that show what mental illness is really like.\nLaura Greenstein is communications coordinator at NAMI.\nNote: An earlier version of this blog appeared on NAMI.org in December 2015.\nA movie that I stumbled upon is, \"Canvas\". It is based on the writer's childhood. The mother has schizophrenia and must be hospitalized. The father is building a sailboat for her in hopes that she can get better. Meanwhile, their 12-year-old son wants to go back to where his aunt lives.\nzuzucn\nThere are couple of movies made me cry and feel lighten up while i am depressed:\nIt's Kind of a Funny Story,\nThe Fundamentals of Caring,\nThe Road Within,\nMary and Max,\nBegin Again - I don't know exactly why i love this movie, it makes me calm.\nA Long Way Down - There is one particular scene that makes me cry... Where Aaron Paul gives a little speech.. It explains how i feel sometimes even better than me.\nPhoebe in Wonderland is a powerful look at a young girl's experience living with Tourette's Syndrome and how participating in theatre helps her. Elle Fanning does a fantastic job in the lead role.\nCecelia Price-Jones\nThe movie \"No Letting Go\" is about a boy who has bipolar disorder. I would not recommend this movie if you are fragile. It is very depressing. It's billed as \"A tremendously inspiring and moving film that captures both heartache and hope of a family living with mental illness,\" and Winner of over 20 film Festivals Worldwide. It's based on the author's real family and son. I found it extremely depressing. But I'm depressed these days anyway. The boy who has the bipolar disorder is not a sympathetic character for me at all. He's easy to dislike. And the \"hope\" I saw in the movie was that he went to a residential treatment facility for a year that cost his family in the six figures. The family could not cope with his rages, throwing and breaking things, and threats to kill everyone in the family. Realistic? Yes. Inspiring? Not at all.\nDee Laahley\nValuable information of movies and documentaries.\n\"The Road Within\" (2014) an indie film follows Vincent Rhodes (played by Robert Sheehan), a young man with Tourette's syndrome, after his estranged father (Robert Patrick) puts him in a treatment center. There he meets his roommate Alex (Dev Patel), who has obsessive compulsive disorder, and Marie (Zoe Kravitz), who has anorexia. - This movie is brilliant and rang true to me - my oldest daughter went through depression and anorexia and my younger had a brief bout with OCD. This uses drama and humor to sensitively portray teens dealing with these illnesses.\nElizabeth blue awesome movie\nA couple of movies come to mind. When the rabbit howls, the story of Trudy Chase who was diagnosed with DID and had documented 92 personalities called the troop. The other is more recent, the movie Split. Excellent portrayals of DID. Another I think even though it is more of a physical nature is Still Alice. A woman with early onset Alzheimer's and how it effected her and her family mentally. Having worked in the mental health field for 15 years, with what I have experienced with our customers these movies really do the best at portraying the illnesses.\nThe Soloist is a film based upon the true story of Nathaniel Ayers, a musician who suffers from schizophrenia, and Steve Lopez a journalist for the Los Angeles Times, who befriended the then homeless Ayers when he was living on the streets of LA. This movie provides great insight to the experience of schizophrenia.\nNO LETTING GO, which won the 2017 Media Award from NYS NAMI, along with 20 other international film festival awards. https://www.amazon.com/No-Letting-Go-Kathy-Najimy/dp/B01DEGNAZS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1514420205&sr=8-1&keywords=no+letting+go+movie\nI'm watching SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950) right now.\nIt's a classic about a faded actress in Hollywood. She is delusional, passive aggressive, manipulative, has suicidal 'melancholy' and is highly narcissistic. I heard it was good, it has been copied and spoofed countless times, but if I had known how great it is I would have seen it much sooner.\n\"Mr. Jones\" starring Richard Gere. Follows a man with bipolar disorder.\nBenny and Joon is a great one too\nElaine Peng\n\"Mad World\" 2016 Hong Kong drama film directed by Wong Chun and starring Shawn Yue, Eric Tsang, Elaine Jin and Charmaine Fong. It is Wong's directorial debut. A mentally ill stockbroker struggles to reconcile with his estranged father and his perturbed ex-fianc\u00e9e.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk9ePoxNi_Y\nJono Oliver\nWww.homethefilm.com\nhttps://www.nami.org/Blogs/NAMI-Blog/February-2015/Filmmaker-Jono-Oliver-Brings-African-American-Ment\nLesser known, but I found the movie Helen (Ashley Judd) to be the most accurate depiction of major depression.\nAs a person diagnosed with DID, OCD, and Depression, Girl, Interrupted is an incredible look into the lives of those with all different mental illnesses. Also, It's Kind Of a Funny Story, A Beautiful Mind, and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest are great movies to see.\nhttp://codetherapyfilm.com is a great short documentary about mental illness\ntammy delbruegge\nWikipedia has a fantastic list...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_disorders_in_film\nOrdinary People is fantastic for a look at PTSD and the power of therapy.\nYay for NAMI!\nThe thing to remember when watching these films is that there is no easy cure or fix. If the film ends in roses and sunshine keep in mind that its got a Hollywood ending!\nThe movie Lisa, Bright and Dark (1973) starring Kay Lenz [ on youtube btw] is actually a very realistic look at mental illness, and how ones innermost turmoil can become eclipsed by all of the stigmas which surround them, like the family's re*****tion. I have lived with bi-polar for 35+ years, but unfortunately only saw this film recently. I have to wonder if my own mother would have been enlightened by it when I was 15 and was reaching out, around 1980. This TV film came in the earlier 70's though, sliding through before Nixon put the stop on drug and mental health education. The 80's was a bad time for mental health awareness. Until the late 80's when the brat pack made it public again.\nRain Man would be the best one. What about Bob is good but Bob is annoying .\nWhether you're a mother, father, sibling or friend with schizophrenia, or someone suffering from the disorder yourself, my daughter's story should inspire others for future. My daughter spent most of her teenager and twenties struggling with mental health (schizophrenia). She faced discrimination because of her illness too. But it\u2019s a myth that people who have schizophrenia have no chance of permanent survival, hence, they can\u2019t do great things and achieve their dreams/goal. Especially, with family love and support of others. I am personally sharing this for the sake of patients who are passing through pains and frustrations. Our breakthrough, achievement and success is credited to an herbal medicine called CONSUMMO, because there has been in the past too much pessimism and bad news about the illness, that it is incurable. Have a look here: http://curetoschizophrenia.blogspot.com . My daughter is back and permanently heal without any schizophrenia symptoms. Mental illnesses are a curse upon human kind, only those with mental disorders truly understand.\nI recommend adding Frozen to this list. While it is vague and can be interpreted in a number of ways, Elsa's \"condition\" can be seen as a metaphor for mental illness - which she had to hide from her society, and became increasingly more isolated. In one scene, she goes to the mountaintop and builds her ice castle. Elsa pushes Anna away when Anna tries to rescue her. What really got me - and almost brought me to tears - is when the marshmallow snow monster shows up and forces Anna to leave. That part has to be one of the most accurate descriptions I've ever seen of dealing with a loved one who is mentally ill.\nComedies \u2013 hope not! Too many movies allegedly about mental illness are comedies. There is a serious lack of reality in movies about mental illness. Mental illness is not funny, although of course many of us do have hilarious senses of humor ourselves. But non-mentally ill people have no right to laugh \"at\" us, and make movies like that. Few movies show reality of how mental illness really is, how it looks at its worst moments, how the worst moments sound -- screaming in anger or anguish, shrieking, sobbing loudly from the gut, for hours at a time -- sorry to reveal the truth here..... It\u2019s not well represented in movies or YouTube first-person videos.\nDear Lourdes, I love Emotions Anonymous (EA) too! Wish I could go, but the group/s in Portland that I know about are too hard to get to for me. The one I've been to a few years ago is at the Twelve Step building on N. Lombard St every Sunday morning. It take me an hour and a half one way on the bus,to get there on weekdays, where the clinic is I go to.\nAlso Prozac Nation for depression\nAnd Sybil for DID\n****************************** nah just playin\nSingin'InTheRainCloud\nThe bipolar friends I have, in Portland and online, love the movie Mr. Jones. Richard Gere is great as a bipolar 1 man. There are two exceptionally great scenes -- the one of a teenage girl showing extreme rapid cycling (like me), and the one where Richard Gere (Mr Jones) changes moods from mania to depression. The ending is tacky. The rage scene is underplayed. But it's the only movie I've ever seen that came even close to good depiction of bipolar disorder.\nvanessa flowers\nA must see: Running With Scissors (2006), really captures the dualities of the experience and very entertaining.\nDonald Turnbaugh\nThe movie Inside/Out is a must-see for all NAMI members, especially those who are involved in Ending the Silence, Parents & Teachers As Allies, NAMI Basics and any others who deal with young children.\nI get in this site to see tecomendation for movies.\nbut after NAMI a place that had help me a lot\nhad been Emotions Anonimos... I realy really recomend for\nother that like me are looking for a place to find sanity.\neanglish is not my first lenguage scuse me about the mistakes.\nIn spanish the group is call Neuroticos Anonimos.\nI would recommend Perks of Being a Wallflower, it depicted mental illness in adolescents.\nI have found the most inspiring movies to be documentaries that demonstrate how people can recover.\nTake these broken wings *\nThe Dr who hears voices *\nHealing homes *\nThe Open Dialogue Approach *\nBipolarized\nMasks of Madness*\nFree the mind +\nOf two minds +\nYou can heal your life *\nThe movies followed by an * can be seen on youtube for free.\nThose followed by a + can be found on Netflix.\nGreat movies thank you for sharing and keep up the great work, please see this related post too: fullonlinestreamingmovies.blogspot.com/2016/01/best-sites-for-free-online-streaming-movies\nChronic invisible illness and the mental toll it takes: \"Love and Other Drugs\"\nBennie and Joon!\nEnjoyed \"Mozart and the Whale\"...Asperger's love story.\nI am a Nurse Aide and Veteran working at a Massachusetts VA Hospital. My brother, Tom, is diagnosed with Schizophrenia and I am diagnosed with Schizoaffective disorder.\nMovies that have moved me are as follows:\nA Beautiful Mind with Russel Crowe and Jennifer Connelly,I believe\nIf you haven't seen this movie it really depicts love and relationship is possible for people living with Asbergers syndrome.\nThe same can be said for \"A Beautiful Mind\"\nOver the years I have done as much as I can to keep my ***** together and these movies have helped give me insight into my own as well as others suffuring.\nAnother great movie of my generation(I am 54) is\n\"One flew over the Cuckoos Nest\". When I saw it I was about 15 and my brother was already coming apart with mental illness. Milos Forman Directed it brilliantly; the Ensemble acting is superb. It deserved all of the Oscars it recieved.\nIt is January 1, 2016. Happy New Years everyone!!!!\nWow! There's so much in these movies that depict Mental Illnesses. So I am very glad that this issue is indeed finding its way out of the Closet. Certainly not major blockbusters, but it gives those who are unaware a glimpse of what it's like to live where are brains are so scrabbled up most of the time.\nAs the mom of a young woman living with Dissociative Identify Disorder (formally Multiple Personality Disorder) I have to add that Sybil is really not a good representation of a person living with DID. Luckily there is a new documentary currently in pre-production call \"I am We\" that will provide a much needed perspective on this often misunderstood condition.\nPlay Misty for Me...Clint Eastwood\nI remember, many years ago, being touched by \"David and Lisa.\"\nAt the time the movie came out, I was a teenager with absolutely no\nfirst hand experience with mental illness, but today, over 50 years\nlater and with a son who lives with schizophrenia, I still think of\nthis film as uplifting and, for the time, being an amazing portrayal of\nthe enormous chasm between the \"mentally healthy\" and \"those living\nwith mental illness.\"\nGreat choices. I also highly suggest Girl, Interrupted for Borderline Personality Disorder and mental illness in general.\nBenny and Joon is one of my favorites.\nR. M. Tallos\nI strongly recommend the movie Dirty Filthy Love (2004). It deals with OCD and Tourette's in a brutally honest way.\nOn the other hand, I believe that As Good As it Gets, did not give an accurate depiction of OCD whatsoever.\nblacklaceroses\nYou forgot Girl Interrupted, for Sociopath, Borderline Personality Disorder, Eating Disorders, and OCD.\nJames Amonett\nTwo of the best movies about BP came out this year, Love and Mercy and Infinitely Polar Bear. These two are the most realistic, that I have seen, at showing what it could be like to have BP and showing people with the disorder how others feel during episodes. Polar Bear reminded my wife so much of things I did, it brought her to tears. Love and Mercy gave my wife a better understanding of what the beginning stages of a release can feel like. I know we are all different the BP, but in a lot of times we are all the same.\nLove and Mercy is on DVD and Polar Bear comes out within the next few weeks. I highly recommend both of them. There is a reason why theses movies are nominated for so many awards. The movies are awesome and the actors are mind blowing.\nLeAnne M Thwing\nGirl Interrupted is about several types of mental illness but the main character has Borderline Personality Disorder which is my main focus.\nDelores Collins\nHow do you get a person to go see a doctor, if they insist they are normal?\nA great movie that should be added to your list is,\"I am Sam.\"\nFred Frese\nLove and Mercy (2015) - The story of Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys - Diagnosed with schizophrenia\nAnn Gatwood\nJust watched Silver Linings Playbook. Great film. Really appreciate the character's bringing out even the \"Numb\" emotion part of Bipolar. People need to see this. Real and true to life.\nMr. Jones is a great movie about Bipolar Disorder\nWould love to see results in mental health . Change laws get an organized group to collect $ to actually help mental health\n\"Canvas\" is a great movie for families dealing mental health issues in a loved one.\nThe problem with A Beautiful Mind is that the real life of Mr. Nash was not nearly so rosy as the movie depicts. He did not have as wonderful a recovery as depicted.it does do a great job in depicting the experience of schizophrenia.\nNaomi SS Jacobs\nAdd Michael Clayton for Bipolar\nWhat about Adam? Great portrayal of a young man living with Asbergers, out in the real world, falling in & out of love...it's a must see!!\nMIND/GAME\nThis is a great list! For a future list of documentaries, please check out \"Mind/Game: The Unquiet Journey of Chamique Holdsclaw\" and let us know what you think!\nJan Schoehuijs\nHaven't seen the others, but 'Rainman' is a disaster.\nSince that movie appeared I keep explaining that that is NOT autism\nI can think of a couple more; the nutcracker shows how hospitalization makes a woman's illness much worse because she is separated from her children.\nSybil the multiple personality disorder film.\nBoth are older films but well worth watching.\nI am a regular reader of the NAMI site and blog and am very grateful for the work NAMI does. I decided to watch \"What about Bob\" based on the blogger's review. I was very disheartened when a few minutes into the movie the 1 psychiatrist is giving info about the client he is passing on and the other says \"he doesn't have psychosis does he?...\" and the other responds\"...no no nothing like that\". Clearly the intent was if he had psychosis the psychiatrist wouldn't have taken him on. I think that should disqualify this movie from the blogger's list. Even if the rest of the movie (which I stopped watching) completely redeemed itself, that 1 line perpetuates the stigma people with psychosis symptoms face every day. We need to take a stand against this! If you replaced that word \"psychosis\" with any other adjective describing a person's race, sexual orientation or religious affiliation people (rightly!) would be in an uproar! If we truly want to make headway in de-stigmatizing mental illness we need to have 0 tolerance for any language that dehumanizes people experiencing these symptoms.\nYou forgot \"One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest.\"\nI loved \"The Skeleton Twins\" and I own a copy of it. I could relate with my own issues dealing with depression. SNL vets Wiig and Hader are just as adept at drama as they are at comedy.\nThe insider (Russell Crowe) is a great study of introvert and extrovert behaviors.\nHow about adding Good Will Hunting for PTSD or adjustment disorder ?\nI would also suggest Lars and the Real Girl.\nI think most in the autism community would beg to differ that autism is not a mental health issue. Autism is an intellectual disability mostly affecting social interaction. Raymond was in a hospital for people with intellectual disabilities, not a mental hospital.\nAndi Chrisman\nInside Out was amazing. I started crying when Riley's first \"island\" falls apart, I could easily remember that point in my life when my \"islands\" fell apart due to depression. It was such a great way to teach children especially about emotions.\nI would definitely add Girl, Interrupted to this list.

        "raw_content": "The State of Timber in Australia: Market Forces\nOn the surface, it looks like timber suppliers in Brisbane have it easy. There is plenty of timber in Queensland and there are plenty of trucks. It should be easy to find high quality, local timber and put it up for sale at fire sale prices. However, there is a lot more to it than that. We work hard to find high quality timber and sell it at prices that beat the competition. If it was easy, everybody would be able to do it.\nContinuing our series covering the Forest Industry Advisory Council (FIAC) report to the Queensland Minister for Agriculture, here is a look at the outside market forces that affect the availability, quality and prices of timber in Australia.\nIn 2012-13, the Australian timber industry produced 1.3 million m3 of wood-based panel products. It also produced 3 million tonnes of paperboard products and paper. The biggest production was, as one would expect, 4.6 million m3 of sawnwood products.\nWhile much of this is sold domestically, a lot is exported, too. However, Australian timber is faced with competition from imports and technology that replaces timber products such as paper.\nIn the construction industry, softwood sawn timber is used for roof trusses and wall framing, while hardwood is used for joinery, flooring and furniture. Wood-based panels, such as particleboard and fibreboard, are also used in housing construction, joinery and flooring. Writing paper, newspaper, packaging and sanitary paper are also derived from timber.\nThe process of deciding what goes where is described by the FIAC as a \u201ccascading value chain\u201d that starts with logs. The highest quality logs go to veneer and sawnwood products. Lower quality logs are used for paper and engineered wood. Wood fibre also finds its way into the bioenergy and biochemical markets.\nThese markets and this supply chain is important. The timber products sector is dependent upon there being a market for all of these forest products. While the population increase has resulted in an increase in the use of forest products, per capita use of sawnwood products has decreased nearly 30% in the last forty years. Over the same period, per capita usage of wood panel products has gone up 150% while paperboard and paper products have gone up 40%.\nGlobally, we imported approximately $2 billion more in forest products than we exported on an average for the years 2002-2013. For 2012-13, the lowest category of imports was sawn hardwood; we only imported 9% and used 91% domestic timber. The highest category of imports was printing and writing paper; we imported 83% and only used 17% domestic paper for writing and printing. Another product that was almost solely imported: plywood, with 75% imported and 25% coming from domestic sources.\nThe Trends and What They Mean\nThe numbers say that we tend to export more sawn timber and import more manufactured products. We imported $209.9 million in plywood in 2013-14 and $2.1 billion in paper and paperboard. We only imported $468.5 million in sawnwood in 2013-14. Most of that was from NZ, Chile, Canada and the Czech Republic.\nThe demand for domestic timber is projected to grow at roughly the same rate as the population. We currently have a population of 23.7 million. This is expected to increase to 34 million by 2040. If the numbers stay as they are, that would result in a 43% increase in demand for Australian timber by 2040.\nWith such a huge supply of timber in Australia, the timber market is driven almost solely by demand. Long term influences include environmental regulations affecting the amount of forests available for harvesting, demographic factors and economic cycles.\nFor example, whether globally or in Australia, a change to higher density housing means that more apartment and condo buildings will be built and less timber will be used as building materials per capita. In addition, there is always pressure on Australian timber manufacturers to stay competitive in the international market.\nWe hope this has been informative.

        "raw_content": "Why Half the World's Orcas Could Soon Disappear\nFood scarcity, ocean noise and lingering PCB pollution pose a serious threat to killer whales. Sunday, 30 September\nThey live in chatty groups, and can hunt in teams\u2014sometimes working in tandem to create waves that dump unlucky prey off floating ice. Savvy orcas, with their splotchy two-tone flesh and rich family lives, have survived mass slaughter, being captured with nets and lassos, and being trucked and airlifted to marine theme parks.\nBut new research published in the journal Science suggests more than half of the world's killer whale populations could face complete collapse in 30 to 50 years, thanks to a suite of toxic chemicals the world has already banned.\nLong-lived polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, are organic compounds once used in capacitors, oil paints, and coolants, until they were deemed so dangerous that their manufacture was banned in the U.S. and other countries in the 1970s and 1980s. Yet today orcas across the northern hemisphere are among the most heavily contaminated animals on Earth.\nEven now, PCBs are believed to be altering orca behaviour, damaging their immune systems, and harming reproduction so much that researchers suspect many families of killer whales (technically dolphins) may not survive the next few decades.\n\"A group of chemicals we thought was no longer a threat is still present at concentrations that will continue to pose significant risk,\" says lead study author Jean-Pierre Desforges, with the Arctic Research Centre at Aarhus University in Denmark.\nDesforges called the results \"frightening\"\u2014in part because PCBs are just one of several threats facing orcas, often not even the dominate one.\nPCBs Accumulate in Top Predator\nWhile PCBs initially declined after the world stopped manufacturing them, levels in the environment have remained relatively constant in recent years. In part that's because the compounds are still found in legacy products, such as transformers, cable insulation, and some ship paints. Eighty percent of global PCB stockpiles have not yet been destroyed.\nPlus, PCBs break down slowly and are drawn to the molecules of living animals, so they've worked their way into the food web. Orcas are an apex predator\u2014they sit at the top of the food web, eat fish, seals, sea lions, sharks, or whales, and have no natural predators. So the carcinogens build up in their blubber.\nOrcas range from Brazil to the Mediterranean Sea and from the Arctic to Antarctica. Unlike many land-based predators, such as polar bears, killer whales have a hard time getting rid of PCBs. Some killer whales now carry 25 times more PCBs than amounts shown to alter fertility. Mothers even pass the pollutants along during birth or through breast milk.\n\"Based on the weight of evidence from a couple of decades of research, PCBs remain the number one pollutant of concern at the top of the food chain for wildlife in the northern hemisphere,\" says Peter Ross, one of Desforges\u2019 co-authors and a marine mammal toxicologist at Ocean Wise, the research arm of the Vancouver Aquarium in British Columbia.\nKnowing this, Desforges and colleagues compiled research on PCBs in 351 killer whales from around the world, creating the most far-reaching database of its kind anywhere. They used population-growth trends and the risks posed by specific PCB levels to forecast survival rates over a century of exposure.\nThey found 10 of the 19 populations they studied were already in decline, and that PCB exposure led to fewer animals over time. Especially hard-hit are killer whales living near industrialised areas around the Straits of Gibraltar and the United Kingdom, where less than 10 are thought to remain. Also at risk were populations in Japan, Hawaii, and the northeast Pacific Ocean, which tend to eat marine mammals that are themselves high in PCBs. Populations in high latitudes\u2014around Iceland, Norway, and the poles\u2014have minimal contamination and face far less risk.\nResearchers acknowledge the study's limitations. It's based on computer modeling, and impacts to killer whales are extrapolated from studies of other animals.\n\"It's a great exercise, but you have to take it with a grain of salt,\" says James Meador, an ecotoxicologist with NOAA Fisheries' Northwest Fisheries Science Center, who was not part of the study.\nBut even Meador calls the results \"a wake-up call\" because PCBs just make other orca challenges worse.\nMultiple Threats Interact\nTo understand how, one need only look to the Pacific Northwest and Puget Sound, a few short miles from Meador's Seattle office.\nThe region's critically endangered fish-eating southern resident killer whales are the most studied orcas in the world. Using photobooks and unique markings researchers can identify each individual and trace family lineage to one of three pods, known as J, K, and L.\nWhile Desforges' study showed PCB risk to these killer whales was moderate, this population, thought to have numbered several hundred in the 19th century, is now down to just 74. The threat is deemed so great that Washington's governor this summer created an emergency task force to stave off an extinction crisis.\nAnd killer whales have such sophisticated emotional lives the problems of these urban orcas are often quite public\u2014and hard to watch.\nThis summer, J35, a 20-year-old orca nicknamed Tahlequah, lost a calf a half-hour after giving birth and proceeded to push her dead offspring around with her head for 17 days. She ultimately swam more than 1,000 miles.\nWhile the world tracked this animal's grief ritual, scientists were monitoring another orca, three-year-old J50, which appeared to be slowly starving to death. Scientists gave her antibiotics and used an upside-down petri dish attached to a long pole to take breath samples from her blowhole. Local tribal groups crushed up salmon and tried to feed her. She finally disappeared in mid-September.\nAnd experts this week photographed another animal, K25, that clearly had lost significant weight.\nWhile at least three animals in this population are currently pregnant, no southern resident whale has successfully kept a calf alive in several years. From 2008 to 2014, scientists using a poop-sniffing black Labrador cross, named Tucker, tracked down whale fecal matter and used it to show that nearly 70 percent of all known pregnancies had failed, according to research from last year.\n\"We are at the lowest point now that we've been in 30 years,\" says Lynne Barre, NOAA's killer whale recovery coordinator.\nWhile many factors contribute to the decline, three are key. First, unlike other orcas that eat seals or sea lions, southern residents feed almost exclusively on chinook salmon. But chinook have been in steep decline for years, and the killer whales each need hundreds of pounds of fish each day. Meanwhile, boat traffic noise is making echolocation difficult, just as the orcas need to look farther afield for food.\nAnd when whales are hungry and working hard, they metabolise fat, releasing PCBs and other toxic chemicals from their blubber into the bloodstream. There the pollutants can damage the immune system, increasing disease risk. It can significantly reduce fertility or act as a neurotoxin, potentially disorienting whales, further complicating the hunt for food. And as starving whales get significantly smaller, the percentage of PCBs in their bodies increases, amplifying the impacts.\n\"All of these multiple threats are interacting,\" Barre says.\nOther Populations at Risk\nKiller whales can live as long as humans, which means some of those alive today were around during the heyday of PCB use during and after World War II. And these are slow-acting contaminants, which means adults can still see impacts from exposure as calves or while they were in utero.\nThat means even populations that seem healthy may actually be at risk, Ross says.\nWhile Puget Sound's resident whale numbers are plummeting, nearby transient whales, which eat seals and sea lions, are stable \u2014even though their PCB levels are often higher. Killer whale numbers in Canada and Alaska are actually increasing.\nBut since PCBs can affect almost every physiological function, \"sometimes numbers don't speak with clarity,\" Ross says.\nFor example, in the late 1980s, harbour seals in Europe were staging a great comeback after major declines from PCBs and pesticides in the 1960s. But shortly after government officials declared the crisis over, more than half of the seals died after being hit with a virus. Their immune systems likely had been weakened by years of exposure, Ross says.\nDeforges and Ross say banning PCBs clearly made the situation better for orcas \"Without that, we probably wouldn't have killer whales today,\" Ross says.\nBut both maintain that countries need to act more quickly to clean up legacy pollutants, both at home and through the Stockholm Convention. In the meantime other threats to orcas\u2014particularly from food scarcity, ocean noise, and the looming risks from climate change\u2014need to be curbed quickly to pull some populations back from the brink.\n\"We have more than enough information to act,\" Ross says. \"Time will tell if we do so fast enough.\"",

Ralph Northam consulted with top administration officials Monday about whether to resign amid a furor over a racist photo in his 1984 yearbook.\nPractically all of the state's Democratic establishment \u2014 and Republican leaders, too \u2014 turned against the 59-year-old Democrat after the picture surfaced late last week of someone in blackface next to another person in a Ku Klux Klan hood and robe. The photo was on Northam's medical school yearbook page.\nThe sense of crisis deepened Monday as the politician next in line to be governor, Democratic Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, denied an uncorroborated allegation of sexual misconduct first reported by a conservative website. Fairfax told reporters that the 2004 encounter with a woman was consensual, and he called the accusation a political \"smear.\"\nProtest chants, meanwhile, echoed around Capitol Square. Lobbyists complained they were unable to get legislators to focus on bills. Security guards joked about who was going to be the next governor. Cafeteria workers and members of the cleaning staff shook their heads in wonder. And banks of news cameras were set up outside the governor's Executive Mansion.\nNortham stayed out of sight as he met with his Cabinet and senior staff to hear their assessment of whether it was feasible for him to stay in office, according to a top administration official who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. The meetings included frank conversations about the difficulties of governing under such circumstances, the person said.\nCalls from lawmakers for Northam's resignation seemed to ease Monday. State Del. Lamont Bagby, head of the Legislative Black Caucus, said there was little left to say: \"I'm going to let him breathe a little bit, give him space to make the right decision.\"\nThe waiting game played out on what was already one of the legislature's busiest days of the session, with the House and Senate each seeking to complete legislation to send to the other chamber.\nFinance Secretary Aubrey Layne said he told Northam that the state cannot afford a prolonged period of uncertainty over his future. Northam's office is in the middle of negotiations with GOP lawmakers over a major tax overhaul and changes to the state budget. The Republicans control both houses of the legislature.\n\"One way or the other, it needs to be resolved,\" Layne said.\nThe furor over the photo erupted on Friday, when Northam first admitted he was in the picture without saying which costume he was wearing, and apologized. But a day later, he denied he was in the photo, while also acknowledging he once put on blackface to imitate Michael Jackson at a dance contest in Texas decades ago.\nThe scandal threatens to cripple Northam's ability to govern. In a sign Monday of the challenges he could face, Katherine Rowe, president of the College of William & Mary, canceled an appearance by Northam at an event this Friday because his presence would \"fundamentally disrupt the sense of campus unity we aspire to.\"\nNortham, a pediatric neurologist who graduated from Eastern Virginia Medical School and came to politics late in life, is one year into his four-year term. If he resigns, Fairfax will become the second African-American governor in Virginia history.\nThe state's Republican House speaker said lawmakers are hesitant to seek Northam's impeachment and are hoping he steps down instead.\n\"Obviously on impeachment, that's a very high standard,\" Speaker Kirk Cox said. \"And so I think that's why I think we have called for the resignation. We hope that's what the governor does. I think that would obviously be less pain for everyone.\"\nReferring to the allegation against him, Fairfax said he was not surprised it came at a critical time: \"It's at that point that they come out with the attacks and the smears. It is unfortunate. It really is, but it's sadly a part of our politics now.\"\nLate last month, Florida's secretary of state resigned after photos surfaced of him in blackface as a Hurricane Katrina victim at a 2005 Halloween party.",

        "raw_content": "Ogden 6 Gets Renovated\nKnown to many as the bargain second-run movie theater, Ogden 6 has been a staple for Naperville moviegoers for years. But now it\u2019s getting a makeover and becoming a first-run theater.\n\u201cSo sub-run or bargain theaters are kind of on their way and we realized that. And therefore switching our format to first-run made all the sense in the world because if we couldn\u2019t get our films in a timely manner, like opening weekend, we would miss out a fair amount of the box office because people really do want to see it opening weekend or closest to opening weekend,\u201d said CEO of Classic Cinemas Chris Johnson.\nTo make the switch, ticket prices will increase, but still maintain the affordability that the theater is known for. Adults are still $5 before 6 p.m. and all-day on Tuesdays. But after 6 p.m. tickets are $7.50. Children and senior tickets have gone up from $4 to $5.\nThe investment to become a first-run was in talks for a few years. But it was a needed upgrade to the auditorium seats that finally pushed Johnson to make the change \u2013 along with a million dollars of improvements throughout Ogden 6.\n\u201cSo with going to new auditorium refresh, seats, then we said we\u2019d widen the screens, we carpeted the floors, put in new aisle lighting,\u201d said Johnson. \u201cProbably another one of the biggest things we did was we eliminated the center aisle, which are the best seats in the house. Then we switched the aisles to the edge so we have two aisles comparatively.\u201d\nAlthough the new heated recliners reduced the number of auditorium seats by about 60 percent, Ogden 6 is using that change to transition to reserved seating in the near future.\n\u201cWe reduced the number of seats and during a week day it\u2019s not a big deal but on a weekend we will be selling out,\u201d added Johnson. \u201cSo we wanted to give people the opportunity to buy their seat in advance and sit where they want to sit.\u201d\nAlong with better ADA accessibility throughout the building, the outdoor box office will also be transformed into an indoor seating area, while a new concession stand will have four more stations to purchase food, drink, and tickets.\nThe Ogden 6 renovations will be wrapping up in the next month and the theater opens first-run movies starting on Thursday, October 4.\nUpgrades that are sure to bust the box office.",

That\u2019s the message of a study of the long-term health of over 40,000 people who had head injuries between 1986 and 2014.\nHalf of them had moderate-to-severe head injuries, which caused lesions in the brain and required a hospital stay of three days or more. The other half had milder injuries with no lesions, and were able to go home within a day.\nAfter accounting for education and socio-economic status, the group with moderate-to-severe injuries had a 90 per cent higher risk of developing non-Alzheimer\u2019s dementia than the group with milder injuries, found Rahul Raj at the University of Helsinki, Finland, and his colleagues.\nIn all, 696 of the 19,936 people with moderate-to-severe head injuries went on to develop dementia, while only 326 of the 20,703 people with milder injuries did. The risk of dementia was highest in those who sustained severe, traumatic head injuries between the ages of 41 and 50 (PLoS Medicine, doi.org/b9dh).\nPrevious studies have found that blows to the head can raise a person\u2019s likelihood of dementia, as can highly physical sports.\nThis article appeared in print under the headline \u201cHeavy head knocks double dementia risk\u201d\nTiny laser inside your body could detect cancer, then dissolve",

        "raw_content": "Service honours Irish VC heroes of WW1\nA special service of commemoration was held in Belfast yesterday to remember and honour the courage and sacrifice of the more than 40 Irishmen who received the Victoria Cross for acts of valour during the First World War.\nIn the run up to the official centenary commemorations of the ending for the Great War in November, the Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland, Rt Rev Dr Charles McMullen, led the service and gave the sermon.\nKingsley Donaldson, organising committee; Simon Coveney TD; Presbyterian Moderator Rt Rev Dr Charles McMullen; HM Lord Lieutenant for Co Antrim Joan Christie; HM Deputy Lord Lieutenant for Belfast Mukesh Sharma; Chairman of the Northern Ireland First World War Centenary Committee, Rt Hon Sir Jeffrey Donaldson MP; and Rev Trevor Gribben, Clerk of the General Assembly and General Secretary of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland.\nOrganised by the Northern Ireland First World War Centenary Committee, the event was attended by the families of the VC holders, veterans\u2019 groups, members of the armed services, forces chaplains, government and political representatives, including the Republic of Ireland\u2019s deputy premier Simon Coveney TD.\nSpeaking about the service, which took place in Assembly Buildings, Dr McMullen said: \u201cIt was a privilege to have been asked to take part in this special service of remembrance to honour the valour of those Irishmen who won the Victoria Cross during the Great War.\n\u201cThe scale of and horror of what took place in those four years is well documented and can only deepen our respect for those who went from these shores voluntarily, including my two great uncles who didn\u2019t return, and those who won the highest award for their courage, the Victoria Cross.\u201d\nIn his sermon, which was based on Psalm 46, Dr McMullen said that we encounter in its verses all kinds of upheaval and destruction that is faced by humanity, including war. \u201cUnapologetically and unhesitatingly, even in a world of confusion and confrontation, the writer of the psalm begins with God whom he describes as \u2018our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.\u2019 He speaks with confidence, hope and assurance, shines a light directly into the darkness of every difficult and complex situation and declares that there is a rock in a turbulent sea of storms,\u201d he said.\nSimon Coveney TD addressing the service in Belfast.\nDr McMullen ended his sermon by saying: \u201cIn a world where there is still so much violence and pain, it is appropriate for us, as we gather together, to find our refuge and strength in God, an ever present help in trouble\u2026 Christ gave His life for us. And as Psalm 46 draws to a close, we too can respond to Him in this wonderful way - we may be surrounded on every side by war and violence, but God is our refuge. We can trust in Him. We can be still and know that He is God.\u201d\nUpwards of 24,000 Irish Presbyterians fought during the First World War. Forty-one ministers served as chaplains - some were decorated for their bravery, while a number paid the ultimate sacrifice. One Presbyterian private, William McFadzean, was killed on the eve of the Battle of the Somme when he threw himself on a box of grenades to save the lives of his colleagues. He received the Victoria Cross for his selfless act.\nPrivate McFadzean\u2019s name and the names of all Irish Victoria Cross recipients were read out, along with a small section of each of each of their citations, throughout the commemorative service. Two local schoolchildren also recited the poems that they had written as part of the \u2018Never Such Innocence\u2019 project.\nAttending the service, the chairman of the Northern Ireland First World War Centenary Committee, Rt Hon Sir Jeffrey Donaldson MP, said: \u201cIn the First World War there were 627 recipients of the Victoria Cross. More than 40 of these men were either born in Ireland or had Irish parents. As we approach the centenary of the Armistice in November 2018, it is appropriate to remember once again these most gallant Irishmen, many of whom gave their lives in battle.\nRev Dr Charles McMullen addressing the WW1 VC winners commemoration service.\n\u201cWhilst many people are aware of the four Victoria Crosses that were awarded to the 36th Ulster Division on 1st July 1916, there are many more examples of gallantry and selfless sacrifice by Irishmen through the Great War. Not only soldiers but also sailors and airmen too. Indeed the first Victoria Cross awarded in the war was to an Irishman, Lieutenant Maurice Dease, from County Westmeath.\u201d\nAn Act of Remembrance also took place, which involved a two minute silence and the laying of wreaths.",

Hall has mostly avoided reporters for the last two months, but in a late campaign mailer said \"recent stories\" about him are false. Still, someone is plastering Hall's campaign signs with puckered lip stickers.\nCampaign signs for N.C. House candidate Duane Hall have been marked with a pink stencil of red lips amid allegations of sexual misconduct that Hall has denied. This sign was photographed on Monday, May 7, 2018, at the intersection of Maynard and Walnut streets in Cary, N.C.\nShe distributed news about Duane Hall to voters. Then he confronted her.\nAs of April 21, Hall had spent nearly $87,000 on the campaign, and had more than $37,000 left for the last two weeks.\nDahle, a first-time candidate running against Hall, raised about $40,000. She's received support from state and national groups that support Democratic women. Lillian's List, the North Carolina group, contributed $5,000. Emily's List has a staff member who lives in North Carolina helping Dahle with her campaign, President Stephanie Schriock said last week in a call with reporters.\nRep. Chris Malone, a Republican seeking a fourth term in a district that includes Wake Forest and Rolesville, has far outraised his opponent in the GOP primary. Isaac Burke had taken in about $8,300 by the end of the April filing period, compared to Malone's $117,000.\nThe race took a turn recently, with Malone sending out a mailer featuring a shoeless toddler in a business suit and striking at Burke's youth. \"Just a few years ago, Isaac was in high school,\" Malone's mailer says.\nBurke responded with a press release calling the mailer \"dirty and slanderous campaign tactics.\"\nDemocrat Terence Everitt was seeking a rematch with Malone in the district. Malone defeated Everitt by about 6 points in 2016. First, Everitt will have to get past Adam Wright in the Democratic primary. Top House Democrats have backed Everitt, who has raised nearly $100,000 with the help of top House Democrats who are backing him. Wright's latest campaign finance report was not available, but he said Monday that he'd raised about $3,000 and spent a few thousand dollars of his own money.\n\"I tried to run a poor people's campaign and tried to prove you can run a race without a ton of money,\" Wright said.\nWright said he relied on door knocking, signs and Facebook ads to reach voters. \"With low voter turnout, anything can happen,\" he said.\nAt the end of the early voting period, just over 4 percent of registered voters had cast ballots, according to the State Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement.\nIn a district that includes Franklin and southern Nash County, former House member Glen Bradley is seeking to return to the legislature. He served one term in 2011, and was best known for filing a bill to have the state issue its own currency. He has raised about $4,700. Bradley's opponent, Lisa Stone Barnes, had raised $96,250.\nFormer state Sen. Bob Rucho, who served 18 years in the legislature representing Mecklenburg County before deciding not to seek re-election in 2016, is back in elective politics. He's competing in a four-way primary in a district that includes Iredell and Yadkin counties. Rucho prevailed in a residency challenge, with documents showing he moved from Matthews to a Mooresville apartment the day before he filed to run for the open seat. He's raised more than $120,000 for the race. Vickie Sawyer, who co-owns an insurance agency and is active in Iredell County Republican politics, raised about $37,000. The North Carolina Property Rights Fund, a group connected to N.C. Realtors, is backing Sawyer with more than $74,000 in independent expenditures.\nNorth Carolina U.S. Reps. Mark Meadows and Mark Walker endorsed A.J. Daoud, a former candidate for secretary of state, in that primary. The endorsements didn't appear to help much with fundraising. Daoud reported raising about $23,000, including a $20,300 loan from himself. Campaign finance reports for a fourth candidate, Bill Howell, were not available.\nOut on the coast, first-term incumbent Rep. Beverly Boswell, a Dare County Republican, is in a hot contest with Bobby Hanig, chairman of the Currituck County Board of Commissioners. Boswell, with the help of House Speaker Tim Moore, raised about $25,000 for the race, while Hanig raised about $13,000.\nThe candidates are fighting about coastal issues and truthfulness. A Boswell Facebook post calls Hanig \"a left-wing environmentalist,\" while some of Hanig mailers are labeled with hashtags #honest, #truthful, and #nodrama.\nBonner: 919-829-4821; @Lynn_Bonner",

        "raw_content": "WATCH: North East mum warns of dangers of drinking alcohol during pregnancy\nThe adoptive mum of a toddler with Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is calling on mums-to-be to give up alcohol altogether during pregnancy.\nHer call came yesterday - on FASD Day- and just days after the UK\u2019s Chief Medical Officers have confirmed official guidance that women who are pregnant or thinking of getting pregnant should avoid alcohol altogether if they want to keep the risks to their baby to a minimum.\nLibby with her adopted daughter.\nFASD, which is estimated to affect 1 in 100 babies every year, is a series of preventable birth defects, both mental and physical, caused by drinking alcohol at any time during pregnancy. These defects only exist because of prenatal exposure to alcohol.\nSsingle mum Libby, 34 and from the North East, has been living with the effects of FASD since her two-year-old adopted daughter, who cannot be named, came into her life just over a year ago.\nHaving worked with vulnerable people and families through her various charity roles, Libby went into the adoption process with an awareness of FASD, knowing she would be able to manage if she was matched with a child who had the condition.\nWhen her daughter first came to live with her she had not been officially diagnosed with FASD, but Libby had a strong feeling that she had the condition because of her physical and emotional behaviour. She also showed some of the facial features associated with FASD.\nLibby said: \"I was aware there was a chance my daughter could have FASD before I adopted her, but as soon as we got the official diagnosis six months into the adoption, it was a huge relief. I was expecting a long battle to get the support we needed.\n\"Even though I thought I knew a bit about FASD beforehand, living with the condition is totally different. When you first meet her, my daughter appears like a normal child, but as soon as she\u2019s in a situation she finds difficult to cope with, she\u2019ll react aggressively or get upset. I haven\u2019t slept much at all in the past year.\n\"My daughter has a lot of sensory challenges; she finds it hard to cope with noise and will react aggressively towards herself, banging her head and punching herself. She also finds it difficult to make eye contact and her interactions, behaviour and play, aren\u2019t as they should be for a child of her age.\n\"FASD is not an easy diagnosis to manage. As well as the day-to-day challenges we face together, it\u2019s difficult to accept as FASD is totally preventable. I also know that as she grows up, my daughter will have to come to terms with the fact that she has an irreversible condition that could have been prevented.\"\nYesterday marked the first FASD Awareness Day since new drinking guidelines were introduced by the Government\u2019s Chief Medical Officers and Libby is keen that the advice is heard far and wide.\nLibby continued: \"For me, it\u2019s not about blame, shame and judgement. No one wants to deliberately harm their child. A lot of the time when people have drunk in pregnancy, it\u2019s because they didn\u2019t know they were pregnant.\n\"But in the same way you wouldn\u2019t give a newborn baby a drink, if you\u2019re pregnant, or even just thinking about becoming pregnant, it\u2019s so important to give up the drink. Just take nine months off. There\u2019s no safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy and there\u2019s no way of knowing how your baby will be affected. Your future with your child is absolutely worth giving up alcohol for.\n\"Babies with FASD bring so much love, joy and happiness wherever they go; there\u2019s something so sociable about them and they\u2019re genuinely lovely to be around, but they also have to go through so much on a daily basis and I do worry about what the future has in store. When you read stats about people with FASD having mental health issues throughout their lives, getting into crime and struggling to get employment, it\u2019s worrying, but I have to stay positive and take one day at a time.\n\"We\u2019ve been lucky because we\u2019ve been able to get a diagnosis early. We have a great paediatrician and access to occupational therapy; we can also access plenty of resources and have a lot of support around us.\n\"We regularly meet up with other FASD families through the FASD Network, which I\u2019d be lost without. But I know many people who just haven\u2019t been able to access the support they need because it\u2019s taken so long to get a diagnosis, and I think it\u2019s so important to raise awareness of the condition because of this.\"\nFor more information about FASD, people can visit www.balancenortheast.co.uk/our-campaigns/alcohol-and-pregnancy or www.fasdnetwork.org",

        "raw_content": "Stay Optimistic, Grads!\nMay 24, 2011 Ariana Santoro\nAre you tired of hearing about the state of the economy? Well, too bad. It stinks out there and in just two weeks, a few thousand of us are going to don low-quality polyester gowns and walk with pomp only to be thrown out into the world once and for all to experience it for ourselves.\nSome of us might seek refuge for a little longer in a professional or graduate school. Some will hide for even longer still in pursuit of a doctorate. But at some point, each and every one of us will have to face the music. The job market\u2019s tough, and the reality is that our degrees just might not cut it.\nCurrent unemployment rates put almost 1 in 10 Americans out of a job right now, yet we continue to accept debt for things like education because we think it will do something to help increase our chance for success in the long run. We hope that it will somehow put us ahead in the race against our peers who we compete with under the exact same circumstances.\nWait a second, I\u2019m sorry. We are getting ready to take the next big step in our lives and I just wrote some of the most depressing stuff that I ever have in my time as a staff writer. And it is not particularly nice of me; I\u2019m sure you have a great personality and you probably interview really well.\nBut maybe you weren\u2019t really paying attention to what I said anyway.\nNew studies conducted with non-invasive brain imaging technology show that we are far more likely to react to and store outrageously positive data, such as an instance of winning the lottery, than we are to consider the negative. In fact, our brains tend to skip over the unexpectedly bad data altogether. As it turns out, recognizing and acting on these negative statistics actually does us a disservice. Overall, the more optimistic among us are likely to have less anxiety and better health, which evolutionarily speaking is just what the species ordered. Our primal instincts let us believe that we will remain beyond the reach of cancer that affects 1 in 3 Americans because it\u2019s better for the species to believe that its individuals are healthy and capable of producing viable offspring.\nIn the context of the job market, we are geared to search for and expect the high paying job right out the door, even though we know deep down that the chances of getting it are slim. It is better for us if we keep the dream alive, though. As long as we believe that it is possible to attain the CEO spot in a Fortune 500, we will continue to work toward something, and that something is way better than nothing. Maybe you end up a manager in some company\u2019s regional headquarters, or the owner of your own small business or a freelance writer. Either way, doing now what you believe will get you where you so optimistically want to go gets you somewhere.\nEven the post-docs or grad students \u2013 the productive ones anyway \u2013 believe that the obscure dissertation he or she is working on will amount to something someday. And I thank them for that. If they didn\u2019t, the human race might miss out on valuable insights from the 30-year-old studying sub-Saharan African insurgencies, or the cultural discoveries of the 20-something writing his dissertation entirely in Latin.\nOr maybe they won\u2019t. But they could, and isn\u2019t that the point?\nHow will we ever know if their work is useful unless they, their advisors, and their granting institutions have faith in the potential of these obscure applications of their hard-earned knowledge? We can\u2019t possibly know unless we accept and celebrate the fact that there is a small chance that they will lead us to these great discoveries.\nWe are all at least vaguely aware of our less-than-likely chances of obtaining worldwide fame and great fortune, but we remain optimistic and confident that our hard earned degrees will do something to help us get there in the long run. Optimism is a good thing. It\u2019s what keeps us going. We believe that even if odds are low, there is a chance that we can achieve something, so we continue to try. At the very least, an attempt at reaching some ultimate goal, no matter how unlikely it may be, is productive.\nSo here\u2019s to you, soon-to-be graduates. Use your optimism as a source of inspiration and hope where others before you have given up. Yes, it\u2019s trite, but even if you can\u2019t quite reach the moon, at least you\u2019ll fall somewhere among the stars.\nAriana Santoro is a fourth-year physics and political science double major.

        "raw_content": "Power plant owners also back plan, Sierra Club drops out of working group after deciding new agreement no better than EPA proposal\nThe Navajo Generating Station burns locally mined coal, providing jobs and power for the Central Arizona Project and other services. In the process, it also produces some of the largest amounts of air pollution among power plants in the West. Submitted photo\nWASHINGTON - On June 26, a stakeholder group that includes the Navajo Nation, signed on to an alternative proposal to the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed rule to reduce emissions at the Navajo Generating Station (NGS).\nThe stakeholder working group included representatives from Salt River Project (SRP) on behalf of itself and the owners of NGS, the Central Arizona Water Conservation District, the Defense Fund, the Navajo Nation, the Gila River Indian community, the U.S. Department of Interior and Western Resource advocates.\nOn Feb. 5 the EPA issued a proposed Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) rule for NGS that required the power plant's owners to install new technology to reduce emissions on all three units at NGS by 2018.\nThe EPA also proposed an alternative that would require the early installation of low nitrogen oxide burners in exchange for an extended schedule requiring installation of technology to reduce emissions, selective catalytic reduction (SCR), on one unit per year between 2021 and 2023.\nSRP contends the cost of installing the technology would be $544 million and could exceed $1.1 billion if the additional equipment is also required at the plant to remove air-borne particles created by the emission reduction process.\nThe alternative proposed by the working group, called 'Better than BART' and submitted to the EPA on July 26, would have SRP shut down one unit at the power plant by January 1, 2020 and put in place reduction emission technology on the remaining units by 2030 if the LA Department of Power and Water and Nevada Energy exit in 2019 and if the Navajo Nation chooses not to exercise its option to purchase a portion of the plant's ownership shares.\nThe Los Angeles water agency and Nevada Energy own about one unit at NGS.\nIf the Navajo Nation does exercise its right to purchase a portion of the plant's ownership shares, the working group proposal requires nitrogen oxide emission reductions equivalent to the shutdown of one unit between 2020 and 2030. The owners would have to submit annual plans beginning in 2020 through the end of the lease describing operating scenarios to achieve greater emission reductions than the EPA's proposed rule.\nUnder both scenarios, the owners commit to cease operation of conventional coal-fired generation at NGS no later than Dec. 22, 2044.\nNavajo Nation officials have said that NGS should maintain operations without closing or curtailing any units. But in response to the EPA proposed rule and to Nevada Energy's decision to exit in 2019, those officials said the alternative plan is a compromise by all parties.\n\"There is still much work to be done to maintain compliance with the Clean Air Act, the Regional Haze rule, and future rules while supporting the continued dedicated efforts of industry, the Navajo Nation and the EPA to balance air quality goals with economic prosperity,\" said Ben Shelly, Navajo Nation president. \"Mitigation of job losses and impacts to the regional economy are still my concern.\"\nMike Hummel, chief power system executive at SRP, said the alternative proposal is the best path forward for its customers and the state of Arizona.\n\"Given the challenges associated with timelines specified in the proposed rule, the development of an alternative proposal was essential,\" Hummel said. \"The working group proposal provides a path for the future operation of NGS that incorporates potential ownership changes and provides for a much needed extension to the schedule for installing SCRs at NGS.\nBut Sandy Bahr, director of the Sierra Club's Grand Canyon chapter, disagrees. She said she was part of the working group with the understanding that the working group would produce something that was better than the EPA's proposal. When she realized that the proposal was headed in another direction, her group pulled out.\n\"[It became clear] that it was not going to be better than the best available retrofit technology, which was how we went into it understanding what [the proposal] was supposed to do,\" Bahr said. \"It became clear they weren't going to and we withdrew from the technical working group and now that we've seen the proposal it is pretty clear that we were right.\"\nWhile Bahr said the Sierra Club is pleased that SRP is recognizing that the pollution from NGS is a problem, she still sees some issues with the proposal.\n\"This proposal does not meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act,\" Bahr said. \"We think that it is important that they clean up and do so in a timely manner because of the impacts on Grand Canyon, other national parks and wilderness areas, but also the impacts on the people who live near the plant.\"\nShe said the EPA will have to look at the proposal, too, in relation to the Clean Air Act. Bahr also said that one of disturbing things about the discussion about the pollution from the generating station is that the owners do not want to talk about public health.\n\"Nitrogen oxide emissions affect public health, they contribute to respiratory problems and obviously there are other pollutants as well,\" Bahr said. \"But this is one of the biggest polluters we have in the state and one of the biggest in the west and so they need to make sure that they meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act and this proposal doesn't get us there.\"\nAnd Bahr said that the enforceability of the proposal is in question and the path forward to the transition to clean renewable energy is not clear in the working group's proposal.\n\"They say, 'well, we're going to shut down a unit,' but not necessarily,\" Bahr said. \"Everything in there, this will happen if this happens or this will happen if this happens and so what we're looking for is a clear path and something that is enforceable and we don't see that in this proposal.\"\nThe U.S. Department of the Interior had already made several commitments that are separate from the alternative the working group proposed. They include reducing or offsetting carbon emissions from Interior's share of NGS, pursuing the development of low-emission power projects to benefit Arizona tribes and mitigating the effects of the BART rule and other developments on the rising costs of Central Arizona Project's (CAP) water.\nThe working group said that those commitments were acceptable and did not impose additional requirements or costs to the NGS owners or to CAP.\nShelly also indicated that the EPA should continue to involve tribal governments as early as possible as co-managers in environmental protection especially when EPA's actions directly affect Indian country, and vowed to continue consulting with the EPA and submitting information as required for a full analysis of the Regional Haze rule.\n\"We are going to do everything we can to ensure that jobs are protected at NGS and the Kayenta Mine,\" Shelly said. \"Our people depend on the jobs provided by the power plant and the mine, we must make sure they will still be able to put food on the table for their family in the years to come.\"\nThe public comment period is open until Oct. 4.\nNGS employs around 528 people, 74 percent of whom are members of the Nation, and approximately 300 seasonal employees hired by the plant, 93 percent of those are Navajo. Revenues to the Nation in the form of royalties and taxes paid by the Kayenta Mine are approximately $45 million. The Kayenta Mine is also a major employer on the Navajo Nation, with 400 employees, 90 percent of whom are Navajo tribal citizens. Salary and benefits paid by the Kayenta Mine exceeded $51 million.\nPoll suggests 80 percent of Arizonans favor keeping NGS running\nNavajo Generating Station offers EPA alternative plan to cut emissions\nGuest column: SRP's purchase of LADWP's share of NGS, and what it means for the Navajo Nation",

Today: A. Baldwin Wood.\nThe icon: A. Baldwin Wood.\nThe legacy: They called it \"the Island of New Orleans,\" which wasn't technically true. But it fit, given that the city was hemmed in by the Mississippi River on one side, Lake Pontchartrain on another and swamps everywhere else, all of which limited the city's growth. That's where A. Baldwin Wood came in. Hired by the Sewerage & Water Board in 1899, the young Tulane engineer set about inventing devices to help keep the city dry. Among them: his Wood screw pump, designed to pump and lift water over levees -- and which made it possible for new portions of the city to be drained and settled, including present-day Gentilly and much of Metairie. Just like that, the map of New Orleans was forever changed.\nThe artist: D. Lammie Hanson.\nThe quote: \"In its loss, the community can at least feel grateful for the long span of years over which this champion of efficient and honest public service was allowed to carry on. His was a life of achievement and usefulness.\" -- The Times-Picayune, on the death of A. Baldwin Wood\nExplore more of D. Lammie Hanson's work online at WhereYart.net and in person at the Where Y'Art gallery, 1901 Royal St.\nAlbert Baldwin Wood was born in New Orleans on Dec. 1, 1879, the son of John S. Wood and Octavie Bouligny.\nHe attended McDonogh No. 10 public school, followed by enrollment at now-defunct Tulane High School.\nHe earned a scholarship to Tulane University and, while he was there, he also won the Glendy Burke Award in mathematics for his work on linear differential equations. At his class' 1899 commencement, he read his thesis, titled \"Vortex Theory of the Constitution of Matter.\"\nWhat is \"Vortex Theory of Constitution of Matter\"? An 1899 story published in The Daily Picayune was less than illuminating, saying of Wood's lecture: \"The theme was purely scientific and was not sufficiently lubricated with features not crudite in character for the average layman to comprehend.\"\nThe story unhelpfully added: \"Mr. Wood went on to show that the vortex theory of matter was fundamental, and that it was worthy of the highest thought.\"\nWhile at Tulane, Wood and two classmates -- Percival Stern and William Monroe White -- built the first radio transmitter operated in New Orleans, according to a 1956 story in The Times-Picayune.\nUpon graduating from Tulane, Wood took a job maintaining electrical equipment aboard ships in the Red River Steam Lines fleet. Soon after, he took a new job, with the Safety Electric Company.\nHe became part of the city's Sewerage and Water Board before it even actually was the Sewerage and Water Board. While working with the Safety Electric Company in 1899, he also took a position with the city's Drainage Commission. That was a few years before it merged with the city's Water Board to form the Sewerage and Water Board.\nHe rose quickly through the S&WB ranks. In 1907, he was promoted to mechanical engineer and in 1915 was put in charge of the board's drainage operations. It was then that he designed and installed his 12-foot screw pumps, installed in 1916. He later designed a 14-footer.\nIn addition to allowing for expansion of the city's footprint, Wood's pumps served a public-health purpose, helping drain water before disease-spreading mosquitoes could breed as quickly as they once had. On the other hand, the draining of the surrounding swamps led to significant subsidence, leaving some newly dry areas of the city as much as 10 feet below sea level, increasing the city's dependence on levees and Baldwin's pumps to stay dry.\nIn 1938, he was named general superintendent of the Sewerage & Water Board, a position he held for the rest of his life.\nWood held a total of 36 patents, and his pumps have been installed in India, China, Egypt and the Netherlands. He also worked as a consultant and designed drainage, sewerage and pumping systems for cities including Chicago, Milwaukee, Baltimore and San Francisco.\nThe American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1974 hailed Wood's screw pump system as a National Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark.\nWood died at age 88 of a heart attack while sailing alone in his sloop, the Nydia, near his home in Biloxi, Mississippi.\nHe also kept a home in New Orleans, at 1225 Milan St.\nWood's original pumps at Pump Station No. 1 kept doing their thing throughout the 2005's Hurricane Katrina, with one pump operator saying , \"They're the most powerful. They sound like freight trains. Four of the old ones kept going all night. The original two pumps, those are the most reliable. I'd use those two before I'd use any of the others.\"\nSource: The Times-Picayune archive",

        "raw_content": "In Good Health : Women's health : Preventive Care\nMany diseases can be prevented by getting vaccinated against them. The CDC has vaccination schedules that you and your family can follow to make sure you are protected. Getting vaccines when recommended can help prevent the spread of these diseases.\nSpecific vaccine recommendations vary by your age, where you live, and the risk factors you may have.\nMany basic vaccines are often given in combination to reduce the number of injections needed. The following diseases can be prevented by following the CDC guidelines for vaccines:\nDiphtheria. This is a serious disease caused by a poison (toxin) made by bacteria. It causes severe breathing problems and can be fatal.\nHaemophilus influenzae type B. This is a bacterial infection that leads to serious conditions such as meningitis, pneumonia, and epiglottitis.\nHepatitis A. This is a viral disease of the liver. You can get it by eating or drinking food or water contaminated with feces. Or you can get it by coming in contact with someone who has the infection. Symptoms may include upset stomach, fatigue, and yellowing of the skin. But some people have no symptoms. This is especially true in younger children.\nHepatitis B. This type of hepatitis is spread through blood and other body fluids. It is also spread in childbirth from an infected mother. Symptoms may include fever, fatigue, digestive problems, joint pain, and yellowing of the skin and eyes. Symptoms can last from weeks to months. Hepatitis B is more severe than hepatitis A because hepatitis B can become long-term (chronic). This can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.\nHuman papillomavirus (HPV). This is a very common sexually transmitted disease. It can cause genital warts (condylomas). It can lead to cervical cancer and other less common but serious cancers.\nInfluenza (flu). This is a highly contagious disease that affects your lungs. It is caused by various strains of influenza viruses. Flu causes mild to severe illness. It may lead to pneumonia and can be deadly in some cases.\nMeasles (rubeola). Measles is a highly contagious infection. It causes fever, cough, runny nose, and a rash all over the body.\nMeningococcal meningitis. This is a severe infection of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord (meninges). It can be life-threatening. The disease is caused by a bacterial infection. Symptoms can include fever, headache, a stiff neck, nausea, and mental confusion.\nMumps. Mumps is a virus that causes a painful infection in the salivary or parotid glands. It sometimes affects other areas of the body. In rare cases, it can cause sterility in men\nPertussis (whooping cough). This is a highly contagious respiratory disease. It causes severe, high-pitched coughing spasms that continue for long periods.\nPneumococcal pneumonia. This is a serious lung infection caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae.\nPolio. This is a highly infectious viral disease that affects the nervous system. Symptoms may include a flu-like illness and stiffness in the neck and back, with pain in the arms and legs. In the worst case, the infection can cause permanent paralysis, usually in the legs.\nRotavirus. This is a highly contagious virus. It is the leading cause of severe diarrhea in children.\nRubella (German measles). This is a contagious disease caused by a virus. Symptoms include a rash and fever. It can cause birth defects if a woman who is pregnant catches it.\nTetanus (lockjaw). This is a disease of the nervous system caused by the bacteria Clostridium tetani. Symptoms include painful contractions of the muscles. These contractions can progress to seizure-like motion and nervous system disorders.\nVaricella (chickenpox). This is a contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It causes a skin rash. It is most common in children.\nZoster (shingles). This is a painful skin rash with blisters caused by the varicella zoster virus. It is the same virus that causes chickenpox. After a chickenpox infection, the virus can remain in nerve cells. It can reappear years later in the form of shingles.",

        "raw_content": "The Real Challenge Facing Headless CMS Platforms (and the Web Design Industry in General)\nNP GroupBlogTechnologyThe Real Challenge Facing Headless CMS Platforms (and the Web Design Industry in General)\nThe Real Challenge Facing Headless CMS Platforms (and the Web Design Industry in General)https://www.npgroup.net/blog/the-real-challenge-facing-headless-cms-platforms-and-the-web-design-industry-in-general/New Possibilities Group2017-11-30\nI\u2019m treading on dangerous ground with this week\u2019s blog post.\nThis topic is sure to offend many of my fellow agency owners, especially those in the web design community. But sometimes the most difficult conversations need to be had, and this is one of those subjects that can\u2019t be ignored any longer.\nWe\u2019ve all heard the hype surrounding the headless CMS methodology, and that hype has a ton of merit. Indeed, this new technology has distinct advantages over the traditional, integrated approach that most well-known CMS platforms take. In fact, in our e-book, The CMS of the Future, we cover the technological concept of a headless CMS in depth, including how it compares to its monolithic ancestors and why we believe that it should be the preferred architecture of CMS platforms going forward.\nOf course, as with any new technology, there are problems with early adaptation. And when it comes to headless systems, the biggest hurdles are economic and logistical in nature, rather than technological. With that said, I want to be clear: Headless architecture is the way of the future. It's the thinking of the past that we have to overcome.\nThe real problem is that the vast majority of agencies developing websites today are not actually employing properly trained designers and developers. Headless CMS platforms require actual development skills to output a valuable and intuitive customer front-end experience. This leads to less competition amongst agencies, and higher hourly development rates. Honestly, hourly rates aren't a great metric for pricing anyway, and data now proves that in the enterprise, headless is in fact much more cost-effective.\nLet\u2019s face it: The economics of the business of web design aren\u2019t geared toward creativity. Instead, they are geared toward sameness and subpar technological choices, oftentimes choices that saw their days of being innovative pass by many years ago.\nTo clarify this claim, let\u2019s dig a bit into the types of \u201cdevelopers\u201d available today.\nWe\u2019ve written about this on our blog many times in the past and summarized our views on the types of agencies that are available for hire when it comes to website design and development. As we have been preaching over the years, the era of off-the-shelf CMS platforms has ushered in an age of sameness, of complacency\u2014and worst of all, it has brought about a generation of \u201cdevelopers\u201d who simply can\u2019t develop so much as a \u201cHello World\u201d statement.\n\u201cSameness\u201d is a word we use a lot around our agency, because it can\u2019t be avoided. The amount of agencies actually crafting creative user interfaces is dwindling. If you are reading this, you have some level of experience around web design. Do you agree? When was the last time you saw a design and thought, \u201cWow, they really moved the needle\u201d? It\u2019s increasingly rare.\nFirst, many marketers have driven their web projects with two major requirements. One is a site that converts well, which makes total sense. What\u2019s the point of a web property that doesn\u2019t? In fact, today\u2019s data analytics give such tremendous insight that working without statistical direction is insane.\nAnd what about the second requirement? Often, it\u2019s the ability for marketers to change content quickly and easily with as little technical knowledge as possible.\nThis latter condition is the reason why platforms such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla. and their offshoots are such major players now. They\u2019ve simply made it too easy to achieve that requirement. It requires almost no skill to set up an installation of WordPress, configure a theme, and then change color schemes, logos, and simple branding. In fact, most decent web hosts will install these systems for you when you open an account.\nThus, an entire generation of website designers and so-called \u201cdevelopers\u201d have no idea what is under the hood, much less how to make these platforms do what they need them to do. Their experience rests with installing plugins, flipping a few switches, and wondering why their Zaps don\u2019t always work perfectly.\nThe web design industry is inundated with \u201cexperts\u201d who, in reality, have no idea. And who suffers? The clients and the end users.\nClients don\u2019t know what they don\u2019t know; they assume that an agency or freelancer is qualified, so they put their trust in them. Little do they know that the agency knows about as much about web development as they do.\nAnd the users? Well, they are trusting shoddy work with the personal data they hand over whenever they fill out a contact form or make an e-commerce transaction. Yikes.\nBut there is one person who suffers even more. It\u2019s the CMO or the CEO who greenlit the building of their site on unsecure, outdated technology. Because when the site is inevitably compromised or an investor or customer notices that it has the same design as another site, the consequences go all the way to the top. Examples of this are in the news on a regular basis.\nThis off-the-shelf platform phenomenon has led to a growth in small firms that label themselves \u201cdigital agencies.\u201d Agency Spotter estimates there are 120,000+ agencies in the United States today. In the world, they estimate 500,000! This is an insane amount of companies making a claim of expertise.\nAnd lest we forget, that number includes the offshore resources that sell dirt-cheap \u201cdesign\u201d and \u201cdevelopment\u201d services. You know, the $500 \u201ccustom\u201d website design that comes back to you littered with spelling errors and compatibility issues, almost completely devoid of any thought to customer service or client education.\nAll of this adds up to a serious problem. The technology that is easiest for a novice to use, offering the fastest time to market, is also the weakest in its native form from almost every point of view. Only perceived simplicity and economics can allow a platform like WordPress to be so dominant\u2014it is entirely too flawed to succeed on any other comparable metric.\nThe biggest problem with WordPress, for example, is safety and security. Everyone knows that it is a security nightmare. There are 9,000+ known vulnerabilities as of today. This alone should make it a disqualifying candidate. However, the sheer ubiquitous nature of the platform has created a marketplace wherein website design clients can price shop for the lowest cost, in some cases spending hundreds of dollars on a project that a skilled developer would have (rightly) charge tens of thousands of dollars for.\nI believe the first thing is education. Agencies of true developers and craftsmen need to step up and begin educating their client base on the differences between the old, monolithic technology and the new wave of CMS options. We must work to tell clients of the true risks of these integrated systems: security, lack of flexibility, inherent sameness. And we must work to defend our craft. The theming industry, after all, has slowly choked custom web design experts from doing what their talents allow them to do: skillfully create interesting and groundbreaking designs.\nIn this era of corporate earnings blowing through the roof, the problem isn\u2019t that the budget for agency work product isn\u2019t there. Indeed, it is. The issue is that the value of a properly developed solution\u2014secure and safe from malicious deeds, built on technology suitable for an enterprise\u2014isn\u2019t realized by top-level executives that are making the buying decision.\nThat, coupled with the fact that today\u2019s marketers were raised in the WordPress era, has led to the infiltration of the enterprise environment with these sub-par platforms.\nWe must act now to stop it.\nIt is our belief that the latest technology in the CMS space, such as headless or decoupled architecture, can truly usher in a new era of creativity for content delivery across the Web. The flexibility of these CMS platforms allows true craftsmen to build creative, groundbreaking front-end experiences across a variety of platforms.\nThe question is, can we make the market care?",

This free event is open to the general public and will begin with a ceremony in Heritage Sanctuary of Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church and will end with the unveiling of the engraved winning messages located in the Rose Garden on the site\u201fs plaza adjacent the south side of the National Park Service Visitor Center. This program is part of an ongoing series of special events commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.\u201fs \u201eI Have A Dream Speech\" and the historic 1963 March on Washington.\nThis year, approximately 2,000 students from schools in the Atlanta metropolitan area and throughout the world including students from China, the Gaza Strip, and California, was invited to present written messages that reflect their own unique thoughts on the ideas of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. & Mrs. Coretta Scott King. The messages are evaluated and selectees are formally recognized at the Historic Site\u201fs annual World Peace Rose Garden Program. The top 30 selected messages along with each student\u201fs name, school, and grade are engraved on a plaque to be placed in the Site\u201fs Rose Garden for one year for public enjoyment.\n\"The annual Inspirational Peace Contest inspires creativity about peace and help youth from around the world connect with Dr. King\u201fs universal message of peace, love, service and nonviolence\" said Superintendent Judy Forte. The students\u201f messages, according to Superintendent Forte, \"demonstrate their commitment to the principles of nonviolence. I look forward to exhibiting the students\u201f messages for public enjoyment at the Rose Garden.\n\"The annual Inspirational Messages of Peace Contest is making a difference in the lives of students around the world. In Gaza Strip, a teacher wrote, \"We have had very tough times in Gaza\u2026. You have no idea how happy this email made me and how happy our students and my team will be. Thank you once again for understanding our difficulties and including us again this year. We are very lucky!\"\nMore than 700,000 annual visitors come to the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site from all parts of the world. When visitors stop to enjoy the beautiful rose garden, they learnthat the garden is a living interpretation of the lives and ideals of Dr. King and Coretta Scott King. When reading the symbolic meaning of the garden design and the powerful messages of peace by our youth, many are deeply moved, while others have positive conversations and delightful opinions about what they have read. It is common to see Park Visitors videotaping and taking photos of the plaques and of the charming rose garden.\nThe Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site and Preservation District was established by Congress on October 10, 1980 to preserve, protect, and interpret for the benefit, inspiration, and education of present and future generations the places where Martin Luther King, Jr. was born, where he lived, worked, and worshipped, and where he is buried. It consists of more than 38 acres (13 federally owned) near downtown Atlanta. It includes 67 historic buildings, most built between 1890 and 1910.",

        "raw_content": "History Culture Test\n\"All Men and Women Are Created Equal\"\nGathered together on two hot days in July of 1848, one hundred women and men echoed these words with their signatures in support of the Declaration of Sentiments. Just 10 days earlier on July 9th, five reform-minded women met at a social gathering in Waterloo, New York and decided to hold a convention, a very common way to promote change in 1848. They published a \"call\" in the local newspaper inviting people to \"...a Convention to discuss the social, civil and religious rights and condition of woman.\" The convention was to be held on July 19th and 20th in the Wesleyan Chapel in Seneca Falls, three miles east of Waterloo. Relying heavily on pre-existing networks of reformers, relatives and friends, the convention drew over 300 people.\nThis event was not the first time the rights of women had been discussed in American society. Nor was it the only way that women fought for their rights throughout the 19th and 20th century. But it was a crucial, formal beginning of a movement in the United States that grew rapidly in the years leading up to the American Civil War of the 1860s, highlighted by a series of woman's rights conventions and local and regional grass roots efforts that used the demands expressed in the Declaration of Sentiments to advance the position of women in American society.\nThough the campaign for women's right to vote is the most famous of the demands of the Declaration of Sentiments, it was only one of many including equal educational opportunities, the right to property and earnings, the right to the custody of children in the event of divorce or death of a spouse and many other important social, political, and economic rights that continue to be contested in the United States and around to the world.\nWomen's Rights National Historical Park was established in 1980 to \"preserve and interpret for the education, inspiration and benefit of present and future generations, the nationally significant historical and cultural sites and structures associated with the struggle for equal rights for women and to cooperate with State and local entities to preserve the character and historic setting of such sites and structures.\"\nExplore the people, places, stories...and more, associated with the First Woman's Rights Convention.\nWho organized the First Woman's Rights Convention?

        "raw_content": "All over the world computer scientists are designing intelligent machines to do things humans do but better. Should we be worried?\nThe machine refused to move to a position that had a decisive short-term advantage - showing a very human sense of danger,\" said chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov after losing game two of his famous 1997 rematch with IBM's supercomputer Deep Blue.\nKasparov would go on lose the series with Deep Blue by a half point, and would later question IBM's use of human experts in between games, but it was his choice of words in the aftermath of game two that has raised the most enduring questions.\nIf a computer could mimic human emotions and intuitions, defeating one of the greatest chess minds of all time in the process, what else could machines achieve?\nAt the heart of Deep Blue's victory was its evaluation function - a complex algorithm that measured the 'goodness' of a given chess position and was capable of evaluating 200 million moves per second.\nWhile in 1997 algorithms were the sole domain of computer science whizzes, today they are helping to solve problems in business and science that were seemingly intractable just a few years ago.\nTake medical diagnostics. Hospitals around the world are increasingly using algorithms to help diagnose conditions and identify patients who might be at risk for certain diseases.\nBy combining patients' historic health data with the wealth of information in electronic medical databases and online textbooks, doctors are able to identify more effective treatment plans.\nAI is also helping to restore mobility for quadriplegics, with wheelchairs capable of being controlled by thoughts, and AI may yet bring sight back to the blind. In America, the FDA recently approved a first-generation retinal implant, which transmits images wirelessly to a microelectrode implanted on a patient's damaged eye.\nThe march of AI doesn't stop at medical diagnostics and solutions. In manufacturing, intelligent machines are regularly deployed to help optimise what resources get allocated on the production line, while in Iraq and Afghanistan the PackBot by iRobot has performed thousands of bomb disposals, making the job of a soldier safer in the process.\nAI is also helping to make human lives easier. Apps such as RedLaser and BuyVia are helping consumers compare prices by simply scanning the barcode of the product they are interested in on their mobile device, while Apple and Android's smartphone assistants are capable of responding to thousands of voice-activated user requests.\nFor those who don't like driving, a future in which cars drive themselves may not be a thing of fantasy. Google recently unveiled a prototype of a driverless car with no steering wheel or pedals and a top speed of 25mph.\nAlthough many of these advances are proving to be life-changing for individuals and have improved business productivity as a whole, technological change is rarely pain free.\nWhile it is difficult to extricate the effects of AI from other macroeconomic effects, there is increasing evidence that AI is destroying jobs faster than it is creating them.\nErik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee, academics at MIT, argue that advances in AI are behind the sluggish employment growth American has experienced in the last 10 to 15 years, noting that since 2000 productivity has continued to rise robustly, but employment growth has stagnated.\n\"People are falling behind because technology is advancing so fast and our skills and organisations aren't keeping up,\" they say.\nOxford University academics take a more pessimistic view of the effects of AI on the labour market, arguing that nearly half of all American jobs could be automated in a decade or two.\n\"While computerisation has been historically con\ufb01ned to routine tasks, algorithms for big data are now readily substituting labour in a wide range of non-routine cognitive tasks,\" say Carl Frey and Michael Osborne.\nOne such non-routine job potentially under threat is that of the board director. In the first appointment of its kind, a Japanese venture capital firm Deep Knowledge recently named an algorithm to its board of directors.\nDmitry Kaminskiy, a senior partner at the firm, says that the machine can \"automate due diligence and use historical data-sets to uncover trends that are not immediately obvious to humans\".\nJournalists aren't off limits either. In June of this year, The Associated Press announced that the majority of US corporate earnings stories for its business news report will eventually be produced through a computer program that is able to create a 300-word article.\nIf algorithms moonlighting as journalists and board directors sounds ambitious, consider the aims of RoboCup, an annual robotics competition founded in 1997:\n\"By the middle of the 21st century, a team of fully autonomous humanoid robot soccer players shall win a soccer game, complying with the official rules of FIFA, against the winner of the most recent World Cup.\"\nCould intelligent machines really take the place of the world's best soccer players? It may seem preposterous now, but then so did the thought of Garry Kasparov being defeated by an intelligent machine in 1997.\nGiven its disruptive effects, it's somewhat unsurprising that AI has experienced a backlash from certain sections of society.\nVarious survivalist and anarchist groups have stated their intention to halt the development of AI, with one New Mexico group going so far as to detonate a letter bomb at the Monterrey Institute of Technology in 2011.\nIn the academic community there is also fear. In a recent opinion piece, Stephen Hawking and several scientist co-authors warned: \"One can imagine such technology outsmarting financial markets, out-inventing human researchers, out-manipulating human leaders, and developing weapons we cannot even understand. Whereas the short-term impact of AI depends on who controls it, the long-term impact depends on whether it can be controlled at all.\"\nWhile these concerns have led to calls for swift and effective regulation to limit the effects of AI on the workforce, and also calls for protective rights for robots, the consensus in the scientific community is that AI is a long way from making the kind of intuitive leaps that come naturally to humans.\nAs Douglas Hofstadter, Professor of Cognitive Science at Indian University makes clear: \"Deep Blue plays very good chess - so what? Does that tell you something about how we play chess?\"\nFor now at least, the answer is no.",

        "raw_content": "1WTC Crowned Tallest Building in U.S.\nNew York\u2019s new One World Trade Center skyscraper has been officially crowned North America\u2019s tallest building, displacing Chicago\u2019s Willis Tower (the former Sears Tower) of its bragging rights.\nThat\u2019s the conclusion of the Height Committee of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, the arbiters of official building heights around the world.\n\u00a9 John W. Cahill / CTBUH\nThe arbiters of official building heights say the spire atop One World Trade Center is a permanent architectural feature and counts in the building's height of 1,776 feet.\nIncluding its 408-foot spire, the One World Trade Center in New York City reaches a symbolic 1,776 feet to its architectural top, which eclipses the 1,451-foot Willis Tower. The former Sears Tower held the record for 40 years.\nWhen complete, One World Trade Center will also become the third-tallest building in the world, behind the 2,717-foot Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the Makkah Royal Clock Tower in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which stands at 1,972 feet.\nEnding a Debate\nThe height of the Lower Manhattan building has been debated for months, as the nature of the mast structure atop the tower was questioned, due in part to design changes that resulted in removal of the structure\u2019s architectural cladding.\nHowever, the debate ended when the Height Committee, made up of international architects, engineers and contractors, made a decision Tuesday (Nov. 12) and released this announcement.\n\u00a9 Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat\nInternational architects, engineers and contractors met Friday (Nov. 8) in Chicago to discuss the official height of New York City building. Designer David Childs presented to the committee.\nOne World Trade Center\u2019s chief architect, David Childs of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLC, and Ken Lewis, project director at SOM, gave a detailed presentation to the committee, which affirmed that the structure on top of the building was meant to be a permanent architectural feature and not a removable antenna.\nSymbolic Height\nThe building was designed to reach 1,776 feet in order to commemorate the year of the U.S. Declaration of Independence and to reaffirm the principles behind the nation\u2019s founding in the face of attacks that destroyed the original World Trade Center towers on Sept. 11, 2001, according to the Height Committee.\n\u201cThe design of One World Trade Center\u2026 reinforces its role as a symbol of resurgence on this important site,\u201d said Council Executive Director Anthony Wood.\n\u201cIn particular, the spire which holds the beacon of light, shining out at the symbolic height of 1,776 feet, is especially poignant\u2014echoing the similarly symbolic beacon atop the Statue of Liberty across the water.\u201d\nWhen complete, One World Trade Center will become the third tallest building in the world, behind the 2,717-foot Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the Makkah Royal Clock Tower in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which stands at 1,972 feet.\nAlso, the project\u2019s architects told the committee that the height of the mast itself was significant because it increased the observable height of the building from the top of its steel parapet at 1,368 feet, the height of the original World Trade Center Tower 1.\nInvesting in the Decision\n\u201cI feel completely satisfied that this building achieved what it set out to do,\u201d Childs said. \u201cBeginning in 2005, we used the Council\u2019s rules and designed around them. It\u2019s an important statement for all of us to make.\u201d\nThe mayor of Chicago disagrees with the committee\u2019s decision, however.\n\u201cI just saw the decision,\u201d Rahm Emanuel told reporters. \u201cAnd I would just say to all the experts gathered in one room, 'If it looks like an antenna, acts like an antenna, then guess what? It is an antenna.' That\u2019s number one.\n\u201cNumber two,\u201d he said, \u201cI think (with) the Willis Tower, you will have a view that\u2019s unprecedented in its beauty, its landscape, and its capacity to capture something. Something you can\u2019t do from an antenna.\u201d\nThe mayor\u2019s comments reflect an intense rivalry between the cities, from everything to architecture to pizza, reports USA Today.\nOne World Trade Center is slated for completion in early 2014.\nWhen complete, the building will reportedly include three million square feet of office space on 71 office floors, a grand public lobby, and an observation deck.\nFor more information and updates on construction and developments on the 16 acre World Trade Center site in Lower Manhattan, see the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey website.\nTagged categories: Architecture; Building design; Building owners; Cladding; Color + Design; Commercial Construction; Construction; Design\nComment from Tom Schwerdt, (11/14/2013, 8:17 AM)\nRidiculous. The purpose of a building is to provide rooms people can occupy. The \"tallest building\" should be measured at the top of the highest actual occupiable floor. Spires and other attachments should be considered under the \"tallest structure\" category.",

What's this?\nThis book covers the author's flying career from the finish of World War II until his final appointment as CO of the Naval Test Squadron at Boscombe Down. Having had an outstanding wartime record 'Mike' Crosley became heavily involved with the introduction of Britain's first carrier-borne jet aircraft. The book explains how modern techniques, such as the angled flight deck, steam catapult and decklanding mirror sights were developed and tested. At Boscombe down he developed the 'hand's-off' launch technique for the Buccaneer which saved it from probable cancellation at a very difficult time for British naval aviation.\nMore titles by Commander R.M.

        "raw_content": "Home Uncategories France, Philippines, Australia will begin drilling 5 wells for oil and Gas Exploration by 2013\nFrance, Philippines, Australia will begin drilling 5 wells for oil and Gas Exploration by 2013\nThe Department of Energy expects local and foreign petroleum exploration companies to drill at least five wells in 2013, signifying investors' enduring confidence in the current administration.\nAccording to Energy Undersecretary Jose M. Layug Jr., drilling activities are expected to be conducted by French firm Total E&P Philippines BV for Service Contract (SC) 56 in Sulu Sea, Blade Petroleum for SC 6 or Cadlao block, Australian firm Otto Energy Ltd. for SC 50 or the Calauit field, Nido Petroleum Ltd. for SC 63, and BHP Billiton for SC 55.\nLayug noted that the continuing interest in oil and gas exploration could be attributed to the country's rich potential and to the current high oil price environment, which would make it more economical to conduct such drilling activities.\nThe energy official previously commented that the Philippines is a \"sleeping giant\" in terms of petroleum exploration. The Philippines has only 27 existing service contracts of which only two are producing. Therefore, he said, \"we need to encourage more investors to come here.\"\nTotal is expected to drill a well after the acquisition of 500 square kilometers of additional 3D data in SC 56, where oil reserves are estimated to exceed 750 million barrels, enough for the country to live on for seven years.\nA well may also be drilled to tap the potential resource at the Calauit oil field (SC 50), which is said to hold up to 15 million barrels.\nAlso, recoverable resources at the Cadlao oil field (SC 6) are estimated at 7.8 million barrels. Blade Petroleum earlier said that production there could reach some three million barrels of oil in the first year alone.\nThe Philippine government is aggressively pushing for the exploration and development of indigenous fuel resources to enable the country to meet its daily demand and reduce the importation of petroleum products.",

        "raw_content": "A few weeks ago, my colleague Marianna in London shared her thoughts on strategic partnerships and since this service offering is one of the areas I focus on, I wanted to add a few thoughts of my own.\nWhat do you first think of when hearing of a strategic partnership? A picture of a bunch of CXOs shaking hands and smiling? Bosses sending emails to the staff guiding them through the principles of a new corporate programme or introducing the company\u2019s latest leaders? Another weekly call with half a dozen consultants? Pretty often that\u2019s exactly what we get.\nWhat do you first think of when getting into a new close friendship? It might be something like: It\u2019s amazing how much we have in common; I have never been listened to that attentively before; I trust her/him more than most. Undoubtedly, there are many more statements which you could easily bring up here. All of them, however, could be reduced to a simple term: quality time spent together. And what does quality time really mean?\nIn a fast-paced world with an ever-growing need for double-digit growth results, multitasking is a mantra. Quality time means attention. The fullest attention. Reciprocally. Simple as that.\nAs in Einstein\u2019s saying: \u201cAny man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.\u201d\nIt does not matter whether it takes a phone call, an email or a face to face meeting. It also does not matter whether it is regular contact or not. When you are working together on a project, you communicate on all levels and the time you devote to it is unlimited.\nWhat then is the added value of a strategic partnership? It is that the relationship becomes not only cost saving but also creates space, allowing the best in both parties to emerge.\nAs Henry Ford once said: \u201cMy best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.\u201d\nFor more information on SRG and how we can strategically partner with your organisation, please call me on 0048 608 402 332 or email me at Julian.Stec@srg.co.uk.",

        "title": "St Peter:Teaching Us to Start Again",
        "raw_content": "Peter could easily have thrown in the towel, especially after his public three-time denial of Jesus. Instead, he 'wept bitterly' and started again. He knew Jesus loved him and trusted him infinitely. Looking at Jesus he could walk on water. Experiencing the merciful love of the Risen Jesus, he could start over.\nAndrew brought his brother Peter to meet Jesus. \u201cJesus looked hard at him and said \u2018You are Simon, son of John; you are to be called Cephas\u2019 - meaning Rock.\u201d(Jn. 1:42). Pope Francis describes this look as the \u2018gaze of choice\u2019 with the \u2018enthusiasm to follow Jesus\u2019. (Osservatorio Romano 22/5/2015)\nPeter is enthusiastic, a man of faith. Yet he appeals to us because he is also frail, humble, and conscious of his own weakness. \u201cDepart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man,\u201d are the first words we hear him address to Jesus in Luke\u2019s Gospel after the miraculous catch of fish (Lk 5:8). Jesus had asked him to \u201cput out into the deep\u201d. It was the wrong time for fishing. They had already fished all night, catching nothing, but having questioned Jesus\u2019 judgement, Peter immediately obeyed. When he sees the huge catch he is moved, falling on his knees before Jesus. He realises Jesus\u2019 greatness and his own nothingness.\nIt is later in Peter\u2019s mission that Jesus explains to Peter the profound meaning of his name - the Rock. He had asked his apostles who people thought he was. Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, says \u201cYou are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.\u201d (Mt; 16:16) Moved by his answer, Jesus calls him \u2018blessed\u2019 and reveals to Peter who he is and what he must do: \u201cYou are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church and the powers of death shall notprevail against it.\u201d\nImmediately afterwards Jesus begins to describe how he will suffer and die. Peter, perhaps feeling a certain pride in himself as the Church\u2019s newly appointed chief executive takes Jesus aside. \u201cThis must not happen to you.\u201d and from being \u2018blessed\u2019, Peter is reprimanded for his too human way of thinking. \u201cGet behind me Satan.\u201d (Mt 16:23).\nDespite his mistakes, Peter is the acknowledged leader of the apostles, paying the shekel tax, booking the room for the last supper, accompanying Jesus (often with James and John) at key moments like the Transfiguration. His strong faith and frailty are contrasted vividly when he walks on the water. Peter sees Jesus walking on the water. Jesus bids him to join him. Immediately Peter steps out of the boat in faith but takes fright when he starts to sink, calling out to Jesus. \u201cHe discovers his own vulnerability,\u201d says Fr Michael Mullins, author of many commentaries on the Gospels including The Gospel of John: A Commentary (Dublin: Columba, 2003). Jesus catches him, holds him, says \u201cWhy did you doubt?\u201d\nJesus knows Peter as he is. He knows the Peter of faith who in answer to the question \u201cWhat about you, do you want to go away too?\u201d answers for them all; \u201cLord, who shall we go to? You have the message of eternal life and we believe; we know that you are the Holy One of God.\u201d (Jn 6.67)\nHe also knows Peter will deny him. At the last supper he tells Peter he has prayed for him \u201cthat your faith may not fail; and when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.\u201d (Lk 22:31)\nPreaching about St Peter in May 2015, Pope Francis described the \u2018three gazes\u2019 that Jesus had for the first Pope. The first, the gaze of \u2018choice\u2019, mentioned earlier, the second on Holy Thursday night when Peter denied Jesus. \u201cPrecisely in that moment, Jesus is led to another room, across the courtyard, and fixes his gaze on Peter. The Gospel of Luke recounts that \u2018Peter cried bitterly.\u2019 Thus, says Pope Francis, \u201cthat enthusiasm to follow Jesus has become remorse, for he has sinned, he has denied Jesus\u201d. However, \u201cthat gaze transforms Peter\u2019s heart, more than before\u201d.\nIn her book, Servants of All (New York: New City Press, 1978), Chiara Lubich says that in contrast to this weakness of Peter, this temperament made of highs and lows, \u201cwhat emerges majestically is the moving adamant faithfulness of Jesus to the man he has chosen\u201d.\nThis trust in Peter is played out movingly on the lakeside after the resurrection when Jesus asks Peter three times \u2018Do you love me?\u2019 According to Fr Mullins, having Jesus ask twice made sense allowing his reply first, to feed the lambs, second to feed the sheep. Butthe third time, which seemed unnecessary, allowed Peter to make up completely for his three denials. Pope Francis sees in this incident the \u2018third gaze\u2019 - \u201cthe gaze of the mission\u201d.\nFor the early Christian communities, Peter\u2019s denial was important especially during the persecutions, like the frightful persecution by Nero. \u201cA lot of people may very well have denied the faith and they were in danger of despairing so Peter\u2019s story of denial and then re-instatement would have been important for them,\u201d says Fr Mullins.\nAfter Pentecost, Peter\u2019s transformation is immense. He goes beyond his human abilities and limitations. He has started over and he is God\u2019s instrument, seeing everything through the prism of Jesus\u2019 life, death and resurrection through which God has brought about the fulfilment of the whole history of revelation. In his three great speeches, for example, in the Acts of the Apostles, \u201che opens the scriptures to people and is a spiritual guide,\u201d says Fr Mullins.\nAt the same time, Peter keeps before himself at all times the figure of Christ, infinite love. \u201cLet your love for each other be real and from the heart,\u201d (1 Pt 22) he writes, putting into words the love and trust he himself experienced from Jesus that allowed him to begin anew each day.",

There were more than eight million registered motorcycles on the roads in 2014, the most recent year on record.\nBefore heading out on the road this summer, our motorcycle accident lawyers share some important motorcycle safety tips.\nRiding a motorcycle is more dangerous than riding in a traditional vehicle for many reasons, including the facts that they do not have a surrounding structure that protects occupants and that they lack airbags and seatbelts. Motorcycles are also less visible than other vehicles and require a certain level of skill and focus to operate safely.\nThe Motorcycle Safety Foundation recommends several safety tips for riders:\nMake sure you have the proper training and licenses before driving a motorcycle\nWear a helmet and other protective gear\nContinue learning and improving your skills\nAlthough the number of injuries and deaths involving motorcycles has declined in recent years, the number of fatal accidents among riders age 50 and older has increased. In 1997, older riders accounted for 13 percent of motorcycle fatalities. In 2014, that age group accounted for 36 percent of motorcycle fatalities, a significant increase.\nAside from strapping on a helmet and practicing safe driving techniques, the next best protection you can have in the case of a motorcycle accident is insurance. Although all 50 states require minimum insurance coverage, it may not be enough to cover the costs of a serious accident.\nWhen purchasing insurance, it is important to consider a variety of coverages that can protect you from various circumstances, such as being involved in an accident with an uninsured driver.\nIf you or someone you love has been injured in a motorcycle accident, the attorneys at PKSD can help you recover the compensation you need for expenses associated with your injuries. Call 877-877-2228 today to schedule a free, no obligation consultation.\nLearn more about motorcycle safety in the PKSD newsletter and subscribe to receive future editions.\nMost people choose to ride a motorcycle because it allows drivers and passengers a freedom and openness that a passenger vehicle\u2026\nIn this month's issue of the PKSD newsletter, our personal injury lawyers discuss the importance of motorcycle safety and insurance\u2026\nWith less protection, motorcycle riders face more danger on the roadway than those who travel in automobiles.

        "raw_content": "Laswell has been involved with the Plano Balloon Festival for 20 years, most recently serving on the balloon operations team, which ensures the safety of the pilots and spectators and assists with all the details of the actual balloons. He\u2019s come a long way since he was seven.\nYoung Trevor Laswell learning the ropes at In Touch Credit Union Plano Balloon Festival.\n\u201cMy favorite part as a kid was getting to play around,\u201d Laswell says. \u201cThe festival made me grow up and turned me into a responsible human being because it\u2019s all about safety around balloons.\u201d Being a part of the festival for two decades has it benefits, like getting to hitch a ride.\nTrevor Laswell takes a ride in a hot air balloon over Oak Point Park.\n\u201cWhen you\u2019re in the basket of the balloon, you see the world from a different perspective \u2013 from the way God created the world. I feel like I\u2019m going to church,\u201d says Laswell. \u201cIt\u2019s so quiet. The only sound you hear is that pop of the burners. I feel safe up there.\u201d\nThe folks at the festival have impacted Laswell in a life-changing way. He speaks passionately about how they have guided and taught him over the years.\n\u201cThe festival feels like a home to me,\u201d Laswell says. \u201cEvery time I go to a meeting for to the festival, I feel like I\u2019m around family.\u201d\nTrevor Laswell, center, with pilots and balloon crew.\nThe 2018 InTouch Credit Union Plano Balloon Festival will be Laswell\u2019s last one, at least for a while, and he plans to make the most of it by embracing this year\u2019s theme, \u201cRelease Your Inner Child.\u201d He posted to Facebook about this saying, \u201cThe Plano Balloon Festival will always have a special place in my heart! It will always be a magical time in my life! It will always be the place where I grew up to learn morals and to be a good person! But it\u2019s time for me to move on and chase the adventure of LIFE!\u201d\nSome of the good morals he learned were to help other, contribute to the team and serve others. Laswell learned how he can add to the greater good of the festival, and now he sees how those lessons spill over into everyday life.\n\u201c[The festival] taught me how to be self-less, not selfish,\u201d he says, sentimentally.\nThere\u2019s no denying that ballooning is a lot of work, but it creates a lot of enjoyment for those in the basket and those on the ground. Laswell, a clown by trade, sees the festival as a big stage. Seeing the bright eyes of awe-struck kids in the crowd lets him know that he\u2019s done a good job for the city of Plano.\nIn October, Laswell plans to get married and move to Massachusetts where he will attend cosmetology school.\nInTouch Credit Union Plano Balloon Festival is a three-day event that kicks off at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, September 21. Buy tickets online or at participating InTouch Credit Union branch locations. Volunteers are still needed to assist balloon crews. Sign up online to volunteer and get involved.

        "raw_content": "PMP Exam \u2013 Vital Risk Definitions\nMany PMP risk management questions cause candidates to lose marks and valuable time because they do not have a clear definition of the main risk terms and phrases.\nMy Top 10 PMP Risk Definitions.\nI have compiled my top 10 list of key risk management terms and phrases that you must remember:\nThe definition of a risk is \u201can uncertain event or condition that, if this occurs, has a positive or negative effect on a project\u2019s objectives.\u201d\nRisk avoidance.\nCreating a risk response consisting of actions that are either eliminate the risk will protect the project objectives from the risk impact. The severity of any risk is determined by the probability of that happening, and the impact should it occur.\nRisk avoidance is carried out by determining the above actions and building them into the project management plan, so that such actions will either reduce the risk probability to zero, and/or protect the project\u2019s objectives such that the risk impact is zero.\nRisk mitigation.\nDon\u2019t confuse this with risk avoidance above. This is a risk response planning technique (a set of activities), that reduces the probability or impact of a threat so that it is below an acceptable threshold. If you will, this is risk reduction by either reducing the risk impact or its probability, or both.\nRisk acceptance.\nThis is the \u2018take no action\u2019 activity! This written response planning technique is as a result of the project in deciding not to change the project management plan in order to do with a particular risk.\nRisk acceptance can be the best course of action for example, when no actions can be determined, if such actions would have more impact than the risk itself, or if the risk is estimated to be of low probability and impact, and therefore the best action is to accept a the risk and its impact if and when it should occur.\nRisk transference.\nThis is a risk response planning technique but passes the ownership along with the impact of it threat to a third party. Such a third party may be another department in group within your organisation, or a different organization (for example an organization who is supplying products and services to your project).\nThis is a document (although it could be in the form of a spread sheet or database), that contains all of the results arising from qualitative risk analysis, quantitative risk analysis, and risk response planning.\nIt contains details of every risk, and includes the description, category, course, probability, impact, responses, owners and current status of all risks.\nSince a risk management is an ongoing activity throughout the project, known risks may arise, or existing risks may change in some way (for example their probability may increase or decrease).\nThis is a provision described in the project management plan to mitigate cost and/or schedule risk. It should describe what types of risk are meant to be mitigated. The reserve is often an amount of money that is intended to be used to fund project management and activities of certain named risks.\nThe severity of a risk is determined by its probability and impact to the project\u2019s objectives. A lower probability and low impact risk would be lower severity, and for example, this will help in terms of determining the best risk actions to take.\nThis matrix is a method of combining these two dimensions of a risk (probability and impact), to determine its severity.\nAs an absolute minimum each dimension is calibrated as highly medium or low, which produces a 3 by 3 matrix.\nA trigger situation is identified for each risk. This acts as an indicator that a risk has either occurred, or is about to occur.",

        "raw_content": "Risk Analysis \u2013 Qualitative and Quantitative approaches\nThere\u2019s a couple of names to scare the pants off any potential PMP\u00ae exam candidate!\nDon\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll make them your best friends in this simple article\u2026\nThe first thing to remember is that you need to do them in that order; Qualitative risk analysis first followed by Quantitative Risk Analysis second.\nFirst however, you need to identify the risks, and put them in your risk register.\nQualitative Risk Analysis.\nThis consists of using the probability and impact matrix tool (PIM) to prioritize and rank the risks contained in the risk register. By doing this, you are able to focus your management time and effort on the most important risk areas. In effect, you are able to apply the 80/20 rule \u2013 20% of the risks will cause 80% of the threats to your project objectives, hence you need to focus on those.\nEach risk would be evaluated for it\u2019s probability and impact using a numbered ranking system such as low, low to medium, medium, medium to high, and high. Or perhaps using a 1 to 10 scoring system. Each risk will have the numbers for probability multiplied together to get a priority score so that these can be ranked. Other data could be captured for each risk such as urgency or proximity, and the category (for example hardware, software, commercial, design, and so on).\nQuantitative Risk Analysis.\nAs the name might suggest, this is quantifying (assigning a value = quantity) the ranked risks often done in terms of time or cost.\nThere are several tools that help in this. One is by using decision trees to arrive at a monetary amount for each risk (the extra cost incurred or time delay if the risk happened).\nAnother tool is expected monetary value analysis. If a risk would incur an extra $1000 and it has a 25% probablity, then the risk cost value could be seen as $250. If this was done for all the risks, then simply adding up each risk cost value could be used as a risk budget to help fund the aggregated risks.\nOh yes, and one final point. In the PMP\u00ae exam you will need to know that a risk is an uncertain event, that if it did occur, it would have an impact on the project\u2019s objectives. But a risk can be a negtaive impact threat or a positive impact opportunity. Both have uncertainty which is what makes them both examples of a risk. I can hear you saying \u201d Yeah, but no one talks about the risk of winning the lottery!\u201d Correct, but it still has uncertainty \u2013 right?\nIf you need help to get the PMP\u00aeExam results you deserve, then CLICK HERE",

Credit: EX3N/iStock\nPHOENIX - Climate change groups are speaking out against Arizona's participation in a lawsuit to block the \"carbon rule\" section of President Obama's Clean Power Plan.\nOn Friday, Arizona joined 23 other states in suing the Environmental Protection Agency saying its plan to force states to cut carbon emissions is an unconstitutional overreach of federal authority.\nBut Pedro Lopez, director for Chispa, a project of the League of Women Voters, says the state ought to be working on a plan to comply with the Clean Power Plan, not suing to block it.\n\"Overall, we are extremely disappointed that Gov. Ducey doesn't believe in climate change and is out of touch with Arizonans,\" says Lopez \"It definitely shows Gov. Ducey is in the pocket of polluters.\"\nIn the lawsuit, Arizona is represented by the Arizona Corporation Commission, which is the only utility commission on the list. The Clean Power Plan would require Arizona's electricity generating plants to cut carbon emissions by 32 percent below 2005 levels by 2030.\nArizona's utilities have said they cannot meet those standards in time. Lopez says the final rule already was a compromise.\n\"The EPA accommodated utilities because they were complaining throughout the process,\" he says. \"They fought this to water it down. They were given what they wanted, yet they sued the EPA.\"\nThe Clean Power Plan is now the law of the land. Barring a successful court challenge, the state will have to come up with a transition plan, or the feds will step in and enforce the rule on their terms.\nLopez' group held a rally recently to encourage the state to come up with an implementation plan for Arizona.",

        "raw_content": "WA Lawmakers Consider Funding Long-Term Care\nMore than 800,000 Washingtonians are family caregivers. (StockSnap/Pixabay)\nOLYMPIA, Wash. \u2014 With Washingtonians aging rapidly, how will the state provide long-term care? Many groups believe the bipartisan legislation known as the Long-Term Care Trust Act is one solution.\nThe novel program would provide long-term care insurance through a payroll deduction of about 0.5 percent. Those funds would then be able to fully cover the average cost for in-home care for one year.\nSarita Gupta, co-director of the group Caring Across Generations, said this legislation would be especially helpful for Washington's 830,000 family caregivers taking care of their Baby Boomer parents.\n\"They're living much longer than ever before - about 20 years longer than when our safety net was put into place,\u201d Gupta said. \u201cSo, we need more supports around elder care, and a lot of the financial burden is actually falling on families.\"\nGupta said it's important to note that Medicare does not cover long-term care.\nOn Wednesday, the House Committee on Health Care and Wellness held a public hearing on House Bill 2533. Today, the Senate Committee on Health and Long Term Care is holding a public hearing on its companion bill.\nUniversity of Hawaii political science professor Lawrence Nitz is in Olympia supporting the bills. Last year, Hawaii passed similar legislation to provide funds for working caregivers.\nNitz said this type of legislation is crucial, not only to keep down health care costs for state budgets, but also because it allows family caregivers to keep working.\n\"Every time we have someone leave the labor force unnecessarily, when a little bit of money could have kept them there, this is a loss to the economy,\u201d Nitz said. \u201cWe lose their whole wage, and that adds up very quickly.\"\nNitz said long-term care insurance from the private sector typically benefits the wealthy because they are the only ones able to afford it over a long period of time.\nGupta said if the country doesn't seize the opportunity to get ahead of this issue and build a long-term care infrastructure, many families could be heading toward a financial cliff.\n\"We'll have millions of families who will be struggling and juggling to meet their care needs, and many who will fall through the cracks,\u201d Gupta said. \u201cAnd so, the urgency is now, the opportunity is now before it reaches that level of crisis.\"\nThe legislation is receiving support from a broad range of groups, including the state chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, Casa Latina and the caregivers' union SEIU 775.",

        "raw_content": "Toronto Star Editorial: The vision of \u201cbasic income\u201d sometime in the future cannot serve as an excuse for inaction in the here and now.\u201d\nThis Toronto Star editorial raises many of the concerns about the Basic Income pilot that have been raised by the Put Food in the Budget campaign and other organizations in the Raise the Rates coalition over the past year. The Star says, among other things\n\u201cIf it sounds too good to be true, that\u2019s because it almost certainly is. We won\u2019t know exactly what model Ontario intends to test until it announces the details. But even before that it\u2019s clear there are serious risks here as well as potential advantages\u201d.\n\u201cMost obviously, it will take years to make significant change \u2014 while tens of thousands of Ontarians continue to languish in state-sanctioned poverty\u201d.\n\u201c\u2026it means a minimum of five years, almost certainly more, for the province to propose, test and implement a basic income plan. All that while thousands of people continue to eke out a bare existence on existing welfare supports.\u201d\n\u201cThe stark reality of that is shoddy housing, bad health, poor nutrition, social exclusion and petty crime \u2014 all the social ills that come with entrenched poverty. The government doesn\u2019t need a five-year project to figure that out.\u201d\nThe Toronto Star editorial also rightly points out the risks of getting the \u2018wrong\u2019 kind of basic income.\n\u201cThat\u2019s because basic income is such a fluid concept that it could lead to a more generous, more efficient and more modern system. Or it could result in its opposite \u2014 a meaner, more constrained approach that puts public services at the mercy of the marketplace. It all depends on how it\u2019s designed and what the ultimate goals are\u201d.\nThe Star editorial reaches the same conclusion as we and others in the Raise the Rates Coalition have demanded in the last year.\n\u201cMost importantly, government cannot set up a pilot plan and then turn away. The vision of \u201cbasic income\u201d sometime in the future cannot serve as an excuse for inaction in the here and now.\u201d\nIn less than ten days Premier Wynne will release the next budget and we will see whether she recognizes the need to raise the rates significantly for everyone \u2013 or whether she intends to continue to assign tens of thousands of people on social assistance to the misery of inadequate incomes.",

Chicago, educated in England. After World War I, he entered the oil business in California. Bankrupt during the Depression, he published his first of many detective stories in The Black Mask magazine (1933). His novels include The Big Sleep (1939, film 1946), Farewell My Lovely (1940, film 1975), The High Window (1942), and Playback (1958). Well plotted and brutally realistic, Chandler's seven novels depict the seedy lowlife of Los Angeles. They all feature Philip Marlowe, a hard-boiled yet honorable private detective with a brash sense of humor who became the prototype for the tough guy private eye of many subsequent American detective novels. Chandler also wrote screenplays and essays.\nSee his collected early works, ed. by M. J. Bruccoli, Chandler before Marlowe (2d ed. 1973); Stories and Early Novels (1995) and Later Novels and Other Writings (1995), both ed. by F. MacShane; his letters, ed. by F.

International Game Technology (\u201cIGT\u201d) (defendant) manufactured similar gaming products and was sued by Aristocrat for infringement of the \u2018102 patent in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada. The key question was the definiteness of the term \u201cgame control means\u201d in claim 1 of the \u2018102 patent. The parties agreed that the term was a means-plus-function term which invoked 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 112, paragraph 6. Consequently, the claim limitation\u2019s scope had to be defined by the structure disclosed in the specification, plus any equivalents, or else the limitation would lack specificity, rending the claim invalid for indefiniteness under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 112, paragraph 2. Aristocrat argued that the invention was a standard microprocessor-based gaming machine with \u201cappropriate programming,\u201d but the district court concluded that the specification contained no guidance to determine the meaning of \u201cstandard microprocessor\u201d or \u201cappropriate programming.\u201d The court said that the \u2018102 patent lacked a \u201cspecific algorithm\u201d or any step-by-step process for performing the claimed functions of the slot machines.

        "raw_content": "The 2015 Raven Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment Goes to Paddington - The Raven Foundation\nYou are here: Home / Blogs / Relationships & Family Life / The 2015 Raven Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment Goes to Paddington\nThe 2015 Raven Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment Goes to Paddington\nJanuary 22, 2016 /0 Comments/in Relationships & Family Life /by Suzanne Ross\nIt is a great pleasure to announce that the winner of the 2015 Raven Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment is Paul King for his work as writer and director of the 2015 live action feature length movie, Paddington. The movie chronicles the adventures of a Peruvian bear with a fondness for all things British and is based on Michael Bond\u2019s universally beloved books. Raising issues of immigration, fear, and the longing to belong this animated film is not romantic or idealistic about the problems faced by both the immigrant and the community which must choose to welcome or reject him. Rather it offers an insightful reflection on the risks and rewards of welcoming a stranger onto our shores and into our homes. Suzanne Ross\u2019 review of the movie is available here.\nThe Raven award honors an artist for an insightful representation of some aspect of mimetic theory. Paul King\u2019s story of the Brown family\u2019s transformative relationship with an alien in their midst creatively dramatizes the paradoxes of violence and peace that result from the scapegoat mechanism. As demonstrated by the founder of mimetic theory, Ren\u00e9 Girard, the violent exclusion of scapegoats is the foundation and sustaining principle of human community. And as developed by the theologian James Alison, this mimetic insight reveals the process by which peace emerges as a scapegoat is transformed from dangerous other to beloved member of the community. This is the very journey that the Brown family takes with Paddington and we hear a line of dialogue near the end of the movie that sums up this reversal perfectly: \u201cThis family needed that wee bear every bit as much as he needed us.\u201d That very neediness or vulnerability turns out to be the essential ingredient for the transformation to occur. Paul King\u2019s insightful portrayal of this vulnerable, trusting bear offers an antidote to the fear and anxiety that currently dominates immigration debates.\nSuzanne Ross\u2019 interview with Mr. King appears below.\nMore about Paul King and Paddington\nPaul King began his career in the theatre, where he conceived and directed a number of comedy shows, collaborating with Richard Ayoade, David Mitchell, Robert Webb, and Noel Fielding, among others. In 2001 he won the Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival, which led to various television commissions including the wildly successful cult series The Mighty Boosh, for which Paul was BAFTA nominated and went on to direct for three seasons. In 2009 Paul wrote and directed his first feature film, the brilliantly inventive imaginary road trip Bunny and the Bull. This was followed by the Little Britain BBC Christmas Special Come Fly With Me (the first of a series), which Paul directed in 2010. A lifelong fan of Michael Bond\u2019s Paddington books, Paul is both writer and director of the film adaptation of Paddington Bear.\nPaddington was nominated in two categories by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts in 2015, Best British Film and Best Adapted Screenplay, and won Best Film in the 2015 Children\u2019s BAFTA awards. Paddington also received the Empire award for Best Comedy in 2015. And according to the film\u2019s executive producer, Rosie Alison, it was a big box office success around the world.\n2015 Raven Award Press Release\nTags: family systems, heyday films, immigration, James Alison, mimetic theory, Paddington, paddington bear, paul king, peace, rene girard, scapegoat mechanism, vulnerability\nEvolution: The Candidate Bible Matters: Ezekiel\u2019s Political Theology",

Can I repeat how much I do not like Peter Grant?)\nHaving said that, what good exists in this book is the secondary characters (especially Peter's boss, the wizard Thomas Nightingale, who I really wish this book had focused on), the worldbuilding, and the city of London itself. London and its culture was as much a protagonist as Peter Grant, and a far more interesting one. There was a competent murder mystery/police procedural at this book's heart, if the damned main character would just get out of the way.\nBah.

        "raw_content": "03 Jan New Year\u2019s Anti-Resolutions!\nPosted at 21:40h in Uncategorized\tby\tJennifer Skelton\nI\u2019m not a supporter of New Year\u2019s Resolutions. The start of the New Year can be a great time for self-reflection and evaluating if the direction we\u2019re headed will take us where we want to go and there are many ways to approach the process of self-reflection. Unfortunately New Year\u2019s Resolutions tend to be self-denigrating \u2013 we beat ourselves up for how we behaved over the holidays, or maybe even the previous year, and promise ourselves this will be the year of clean eating and sweating it out. In short, we tell ourselves we aren\u2019t good enough right now and vow to improve ourselves forever more. Our resolutions tend to frame around negative emotions towards ourselves and those negative emotions only grow larger when we don\u2019t meet the unrealistic expectations we committed ourselves to in January providing further cause for beating ourselves up more. Sound familiar?\nI prefer approaching the New Year asking myself how I can be kinder to myself this year? How can I make space in my life for more self-care?\nI\u2019ve written before about the Culture of Busy and how it is negatively impacting our health. In that post there are several great recommendations that I remind myself of on a regular basis and could serve as a total guide towards a kind approach to self-reflection and setting intentions for the New Year.\nOne of the recommendations in that post is simply \u201cDo Less.\u201d When we constantly say \u201cYes\u201d to taking on another commitment and to filling our plate with tasks and projects and responsibilities what does that mean we are saying \u201cNo\u201d to? If you are already feeling pressed for time and that your life is super busy, and then you agree to take on an additional commitment do you evaluate the number of hours/week it will add to your responsibilities? Maybe 5 hours/week \u2013 where do you get those 5 hours? What are you going to give up (i.e., say \u201cNo\u201d to) in order to get those 5 hours? Do you see where this is going? What is the thing that we usually give up first? Self-care right? We skip a meal or eat a quick, less nutritious one; we skip that walk or ski we were looking forward to; cancel a social engagement with a friend; maybe even give up family time. Yikes!\nHow can we reverse this situation?\nLearn how to say \u201cNo\u201d more often. We have a negative cultural bias around saying \u201cNo\u201d when someone asks us to do something or even when someone didn\u2019t ask but it is something we believe we \u201cshould\u201d do. But when we say, \u201cYes\u201d there is the hidden \u201cNo\u201d. There is the hidden \u201cNo\u201d to the things we gave up in order to say \u201cYes\u201d. The reverse of this is that there is a hidden \u201cYes\u201d when we say \u201cNo\u201d to something. It is usually the \u201cYes\u201d of having time for self-care \u2013 keeping our social engagement with our friend, going for that walk, eating that nutritious meal, prioritizing family time.\nSo back to the question I am reflecting on this year: \u201cHow can I make space in my life for more self-care?\u201d How can I do less?\nA couple of years ago I posted an idea on Instagram about making Anti-Resolutions.\nA post shared by Jennifer Skelton (@reposelifestyle) on Dec 29, 2016 at 5:17pm PST\nAs a chronic To-Do-List person, I usually have several to do lists and there are usually a few tasks or projects that I never seem to get to but that keep moving from one list to the next. But even the thought of them weighs me down. So my first Anti-Resolutions are to cross those off the list forever.\nAre you a To-Do-Lister? Do you know what I\u2019m talking about? I challenge you to find 5 things on your To Do List that you vow NOT TO DO in 2019. Then cross them out and forget about them. If you are really worried about losing track of them write them down on a piece of paper, seal it in an envelope and address it to yourself December 31, 2019 and stow it away with your Christmas decorations so that you\u2019ll find it next year (if you don\u2019t celebrate Christmas, just go hide it somewhere you\u2019re not likely to find it until next year).\nJust doing this can bring in more space for creativity and feeling more relaxed. And then as new projects come up, I try to remember the hidden \u201cNo\u201d when saying \u201cYes\u201d and the hidden \u201cYes\u201d when saying \u201cNo.\u201d Taking a moment to consider whether there is time in my life for that commitment right now and what I would have to give up to make it happen helps me make decisions that are more likely to lead to joy and fulfilment rather than bind me to the Culture of Busy.\nHappy New Year. May you be less busy in 2019 with more time for relaxation and self-care.",

Mandatory Credit: Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports\nRyan O\u2019Reilly and Tyler Bozak each had a goal and an assist, Jaden Schwartz scored to end a 22-game goal drought, and Mackenzie MacEachern also tallied as the Blues recorded their most goals in a game since an 8-3 romp over the Edmonton Oilers on Nov. 21, 2017.\nVladimir Tarasenko set up a pair of tallies to extend his point streak to a career-high nine games (seven goals, seven assists), and rookie Jordan Binnington finished with 20 saves to improve to 10-1-1 in 14 appearances this season.\nKyle Palmieri scored his team-leading 24th goal, and Pavel Zacha and Mirco Mueller also tallied for the Devils, who lost for the seventh straight time in St. Louis. Keith Kinkaid yielded all eight goals on 39 shots to drop to 0-4-1 in five career appearances against the Blues.\nSt. Louis got out of the blocks in a hurry, registering 20 shots on goal to take a 3-1 advantage after one period.\nPietrangelo wristed a shot from the left circle that caromed off the stick of New Jersey\u2019s Jesper Bratt and between the pads of Kinkaid to open the scoring at 5:08 of the first period.\nBarbashev and Zacha took advantage of turnovers to trade tallies before Schwartz restored the Blues\u2019 two-goal advantage with 4:13 remaining in the first period after his wrist shot from inside the blue line handcuffed Kinkaid. Schwartz\u2019s goal was his fourth of the season and first since an empty-net tally in a 4-1 win against Edmonton on Dec. 18.\nSt. Louis scored three times in the second period to effectively put the game out of reach. O\u2019Reilly and MacEachern used their considerable speed on partial breakaways before Bozak\u2019s attempted pass banked off Devils defenseman Ben Lovejoy and between Kinkaid\u2019s pads for a 6-1 lead with 4:40 left.\nPietrangelo capped his two-goal performance with a backhander just 45 seconds into the third period. Barbashev answered Palmieri\u2019s tally by scoring from the right doorstep at 9:25. Three minutes later, Mueller\u2019s unassisted tally capped the scoring.",

        "title": "Chicken Truck Accident and the Sudden Emergency Doctrine",
        "raw_content": "Chicken Truck Accident and the Sudden Emergency Doctrine\nLast night, a tractor trailer truck filled with empty chicken crates veered off the road and crashed into a Rite Aid in Monroe, North Carolina. The fuel tank of the truck ruptured and HAZMAT crews responded to the scene of the crash. Although the store sustained substantial damage, fortunately, the two employees who were inside of the store at the time of the crash were not injured. But what if the situation had not been so lucky?\nIf someone in the store had been injured when the truck crashed into the Rite Aid, that person would have to show (1) a legal duty of care owed by the defendant to the plaintiff, (2) a breach of that duty, (3) actual and proximate cause and (4) injury. Actual cause is the \u201ccause-in-fact.\u201d North Carolina case law has defined proximate cause as \u201ca cause which in natural and continuous sequence, unbroken by any new and independent cause, produced the plaintiff\u2019s injuries, and without which the injuries would not have occurred.\u201d\nRight now we don\u2019t know a whole lot about the cause of the accident, which remains under investigation by the authorities. Let\u2019s suppose that the truck driver was speeding and because he was speeding failed to navigate a curve in the road, causing him to veer off the road and then crash into the Rite Aid, injuring the two people inside. In this case, he was per se negligent since he was violating traffic laws by speeding. His negligence was the actual and proximate cause of the two people\u2019s injuries.\nWhat if instead of speeding, the truck driver was violating various safety regulations and had been driving longer than he should have been. As a result, the truck driver was tired and dozed off at the wheel. The truck veered off the road and crashed into the Rite Aid, injuring the two people who were in the store. The analysis here is fairly simple. When we drive we owe a duty of care to others. The driver of the truck breached this duty of care by driving while so fatigued that he would doze off at the wheel. His fatigue was the actual and proximate cause of running off the road, crashing into the store and causing the plaintiff\u2019s injuries.\nWhat if the truck driver had been driving longer than he should have been under various safety regulations, but there was no evidence of fatigue? In 2013 case decided by the NC Court of Appeals (Fulmore v. Howell), the court did not seem quite ready to infer negligence per se from violation of safety regulations in the same way that it infers negligence per se from violation of traffic laws.\nLet\u2019s change the facts of our scenario and suppose that the truck driver was still violating various safety regulations but, although he was fatigued, he did not doze off at the wheel. Instead, he veered off the road when confronted with an oncoming vehicle in his lane of traffic, after which he crashed into the Rite Aid and injured the two people in the store. This is very similar to the facts in the Fulmore v. Howell case. Under the analysis provided in that case, the element of causation is lacking because the breach of the driver\u2019s duty to drive while not fatigued was not the cause of his veering off the road. The cause of the injury was swerving to avoid an oncoming car.\nInstead, we look at this scenario through the \u201csudden emergency doctrine.\u201d Under the sudden emergency doctrine as defined by North Carolina courts, \u201cIn the face of an emergency, a person is not held to the wisest choice of conduct, but only to such choice as a person of ordinary care and prudence would have made in similar circumstances.\u201d The purpose of the sudden emergency doctrine is to keep hindsight from analyzing a situation where an immediate decision is required. To prevail under the sudden emergency doctrine, the truck driver would have to show 1) that he perceived and reacted to an emergency situation and 2) that that emergency was not created by his own negligence. An emergency situation has been defined by North Carolina courts as a situation which compels a party to \u201cact instantly to avoid a collision or injury.\u201d\nApplying this doctrine to our scenario, it is clear that 1) an oncoming car in his travel lane is a situation which would compel the truck driver to act to avoid collision or injury and 2) the truck driver did not create this situation by his own negligence. Under the sudden emergency doctrine, even if truck driver could have avoided the crash by swerving left instead of right, he still would be protected by the doctrine. North Carolina cases:\n\u201creveal that motorists who have been confronted by an automobile approaching in the wrong lane have, on occasions, (1) continued straight ahead, (2) turned to the right, (3) turned to the left, and (4) stopped\u2024 In applying the doctrine of sudden emergency, the courts have not been inclined to weigh in \u201cgolden scales\u201d the conduct of the motorist who has acted under the excited impulse of sudden panic induced by the negligence of the other motorist.\u201d\nOne last change to our facts: what if instead of swerving to avoid an oncoming car, the truck driver swerved to avoid a deer in the middle of the road? The purpose of the sudden emergency doctrine is not to prevent injury to animals, but to people. However, it is possible that in hitting an animal, injury could be sustained to the driver of the car or other drivers on the road. North Carolina courts have instructed that the sudden emergency doctrine does not apply \u201cif only a non-human animal is in danger\u201d but it should apply when a driver is \u201csuddenly and unexpectedly confronted with imminent danger to himself or others\u201d which can happen as a result of hitting an animal in the road. It seems that this analysis would depend on what type of vehicle the driver was in, what type of animal was in the road and who was around the potential collision with the animal. It is unlikely that the driver of a tractor trailer truck would sustain injuries by hitting even a rather large animal such as a deer, but if there was another car near the potential collision, this analysis might change.\nIt will be interesting to see if we find out more about the cause of the accident last night. In the meantime, we can be thankful that no one was injured in the crash.\nPreviousPrevious post:DWI and MarijuanaNextNext post:Refusal to Submit to a Breathalyzer in North Carolina",

        "title": "No Change for New York Medical Malpractice Statute of Limitations",
        "raw_content": "No Change for New York Medical Malpractice Statute of Limitations\nIn New York last week, a bill called Lavern\u2019s Law died in committee. The bill had been passed by the assembly and was approved by the governor. However, the majority leader in the house refused to bring the bill to the floor for a vote. Named after Lavern Wilkinson, a woman who died as a result of medical malpractice in 2013, the bill would changed the statute of limitations for a medical malpractice action to start at the time that the patient discovers the malpractice. The current New York statute starts the statute of limitations at the time the malpractice occurred and is usually two years and six months from the time of the malpractice. The statute of limitations is even shorter \u2013 only one years and three months from the time of the malpractice \u2013 in the case of a city hospital defendant.\nLavern\u2019s case began in February of 2010 when she visited Kings County Hospital complaining of chest pains. The doctors there ordered an EKG and a chest X-ray and later sent Lavern home with a clean bill of health and instructions to take Motrin for her pain. In fact, the radiologist\u2019s review of that chest X-ray noted a suspicious nodule on Lavern\u2019s right lung, but this was never communicated to Lavern. Lavern visited the clinic for follow-up appointments over the next two years, continuing to complain of a chronic cough. During this time, her symptoms were treated with cough medicine and inhalers because the doctors believed her symptoms were caused by asthma.\nIt was not until May 2012 when a second chest X-ray was taken. This X-ray showed that the nodules had doubled in size and that Lavern now had Stage 4 lung cancer, which had metastasized to her liver, brain and spine. The doctors told Lavern that she had six months to live. Lavern died in 2013 as a result of the cancer. Sadly, had her cancer been diagnosed in 2010, it is likely it could have been cured. The New York Daily News exposed Lavern\u2019s story, which was especially tragic because of Lavern\u2019s teenage daughter who is severely autistic and requires around the clock care.\nThe fact that Lavern did not discover the malpractice until after the statute of limitations had run put her lawyers in a tight spot. When the city offered a settlement of $625,000, the lawyers felt like they were obligated to accept it. If they had attempted to take the case to trial, there was a good chance they could have ended up with nothing because of the run statute of limitations. However, one medical malpractice attorney estimated that if the statute of limitations were not an issue, Lavern\u2019s case was worth \u201cin excess of $10 million,\u201d which makes the settlement amount look rather meager in comparison. In addition, some experts estimate that the care required for Lavern\u2019s daughter will run about $150,000, which means that the settlement amount might run out before the daughter turns 20 years old.\nThe New York Daily News notes that 44 states have \u201cdate of discovery\u201d laws similar to Lavern\u2019s Law. North Carolina is one of those states. The statute of limitations for a medical malpractice claim in North Carolina is generally three years from the last act of the defendant giving rise to the injury. However, there are a few exceptions to this general rule.\nCategory: Medical MalpracticeBy Attorney Fleishman June 30, 2015\nPreviousPrevious post:Traffic Stops and the Community Caretaker DoctrineNextNext post:Interlock Ignition Legislation in North Carolina",

Despite the cold weather and a flat tire on the hay wagon, it was a fun time for the dozens of families who came out to visit Santa Claus and enjoy the kickoff to Christmastime.\nAnd the Nobel prize for hope goes to\u2026\nNotwithstanding U.S. President Barack Obama didn\u2019t (as far as we know) campaign for the Nobel Peace Prize, he certainly doesn\u2019t deserve this accolade.\nNominated just days after he took office Jan. 20 and chosen nine months after his inauguration, he is the leader of a nation at war on two fronts, chasing the ghostly terrorists who attacked the United States Sept. 11, 2001.\nThe Nobel committee must have the same PR advisors as Tiger Woods. Or a crystal ball. Selecting someone for this prize based on what you hope he will do or what he says he will do is the height of mockery.\nPresident Obama should be embarrassed to receive this award. The Nobel committee says it is honouring his \u201cextraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples.\u201d Why couldn\u2019t they wait until he\u2019s actually lived up to his hype?\nIt\u2019s more likely the European committee gave him the Nobel Peace Prize because she\u2019s not Dubya.\nSo which poorly performing NHL team would you rather be a fan of these days: the Edmonton Oilers or the Toronto Maple Leafs?\nBoth have started to come around and unlike the Leafs who can be counted on to lose a Hockey Night in Canada game in overtime, the Oilers have been winning OT games \u2014 or at least Shawn Horcoff has. That just clouds the fact that Edmonton has a tough time winning after playing 65 minutes of hockey.\nThe Leafs can score in a wide-open game but their best goalie is like the Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz \u2014 no heart. But they have Phil Kessel who looks like the superstar the Leafs have been missing since 13 left.\nIf they give prizes for hope perhaps the Maple Leafs should be awarded the Stanley Cup now.\nCanadians haven\u2019t had a chance to reject whatever Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff stands for but just a year after anointing him with snake oil, Liberal MPs are ready to do just that.\nRumours coming out of the dark corners of Ottawa\u2019s favourite restaurants seem to indicate that yet another Liberal leader will be pushed out the door. Iggy was kind of forced on the party and he does not have the open loyalty of his MPs and senators.

These proteins contain two adjacent cysteine-rich furin-like domains followed by a thrombospondin (TSP-1) motif and a region rich in basic residues. Mature human R-Spondin 1 shares 87% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat R-Spondin 1 (2). Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms that have a substituted N-terminus or lack the TSP-1 domain. R-Spondin 1 enhances canonical Wnt/ beta -catenin signaling by competing with the Wnt antagonist Dkk-1, binding to Frizzled-8, Kremen, LRP-6, Lgr4, Lgr5, and Lgr6, and enhancing cell surface availability of Wnt receptors (3-11). R-Spondin 1 functions in dorsal neural tube development (12) as well as male and female germ cell development (7, 10, 13). It also induces bone formation (6), intestinal crypt cell proliferation (14), angiogenesis (7, 15), and insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells (11).\nJin, Y.R. and J.K. Yoon (2012) Int. J.

        "raw_content": "I read this article and found it very interesting, thought it might be something for you. The article is called General Election 2015: Employment proposals (part one) and is located at https://www.rocketlawyer.co.uk/blog/general-election-2015-what-are-the-main-parties-employment-proposals-part-one/.\nEmployment, News / Mark Edwards / 04 May 2015\nSo \u2018election fever\u2019 is sweeping the nation (or at least the media!) but what do the main political parties promise to deliver for employers and employees if they get into power after 7 May 2015?\nToday, I examine what the party manifestos propose on pay and working time, zero hours contracts and protection for vulnerable workers.\nPay and working time\nThe Conservative Party has pledged its support for the National Minimum Wage and further measures to enforce the payment of it (a policy s\nhared by the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats and UKIP) and pledge to increase the tax-free personal allowance to \u00a312,500, which is also proposed by the Liberal Democrats (UKIP want to increase this to \u00a313,000). The Conservative Party states that it will encourage businesses to pay the Living Wage \u2013 but only if they can afford to.\nThe Liberal Democrats propose an independent review to set a fair Living Wage, mandatory publishing of the number of people paid less than the Living Wage and the ratio between top and median pay by 2020. The Labour Party proposes that Listed companies report on whether they are paying the Living Wage and the introduction of \u201cMake Work Pay\u201d contracts, which would offer a tax rebate to employers paying the Living Wage in 2015.\nThe SNP and Green Party are more ambitious with their minimum wage plans, the SNP pledging that it will vote to increase the minimum wage to \u00a38.70 by 2020 and support extending the Living Wage across the UK. The Green Party pledge that it will increase the minimum wage to a Living Wage of \u00a310 per hour by 2020.\nIn terms of limiting or capping pay, the Conservative Party does not make any proposals, the Labour Party pledges to require employee representation when executive pay is set, better links between pay and performance by simplifying pay packages, and requiring investment and pension fund managers to disclose how they vote on top pay.The Labour Party also proposes a ratio for the highest earners against the average employee in every organisation. The Green Party proposes to enforce a cap on bankers\u2019 bonuses and to introduce a maximum pay ratio of 10:1 between the best and the worst paid in every organisation.\nZero hours contracts and vulnerable workers\nThe Conservative Party has pledged it will work to eliminate exploitation of migrant workers and exclusivity in zero-hours contracts (also pledged by theLabour Party).\nThe Conservative Party further pledges that it will create an extra three million apprenticeships over the next five years, if it wins the election. The Labour Party manifesto says on this point that every school leaver who gets the grades will be guaranteed an apprenticeship and that it will guarantee a paid job for all young people who have been unemployed for one year and for all those aged over 25 who have been unemployed for two years. Benefits will be withdrawn if the job is refused.\nThe Liberal Democrats state in their manifesto that a formal contract could be demanded by workers who have worked regular hours over a certain time period (a policy shared by the Labour Party, who specifically state that the time period would be 12 weeks of regular hours and by UKIP, who propose that for businesses hiring 50 or more people, workers could demand a formal contract after one year of regular hours).\nUKIP pledges that workers on zero hours contracts must be given at least twelve hours\u2019 notice of work and that once notice has been given, they must be paid for the work, whether or not they are actually needed.\nTomorrow, solicitor and legal writer Samantha Joliffe will look at what the parties are saying about discrimination at work and employment tribunals.\nFor further information please find links to all the main party manifestos below:",

        "raw_content": "Sam Rockwell as Eddie\nBen Schwartz as Paul Driggs\nAl Weaver as Tommy Tresham\nAmanda Donohoe as Dawn Bradshaw\nSimon Callow as Uncle Martin\nPeter Ferdinando as Deacon Bradshaw\nFrances Barber as Princess\nPhoebe Fox as Katherine Rookwood\nSimon Lambros\nIn \"Blue Iguana,\" Eddie (Sam Rockwell) and Paul (Ben Schwartz) are ex-con buddies, working at a New York diner and trying not to screw up their parole. Into their world strolls Katherine Rookwood (Phoebe Fox), a British lawyer for a sketchy international businessman named Arkady (Peter Polycarpou). It's hard to keep the details straight but the gist of it is: she's beholden to Arkady for some cash and he's making all kinds of threats. He tells her if she can retrieve some stolen bonds, he will forgive her debts. She hires Eddie and Paul to come to London (thereby violating their parole) and pull off the job. None of this makes much sense and it all goes down in the first scene, before you even get your bearings as to who everyone is, where they're coming from, what the stakes are.\nWritten and directed by Hadi Hajaig, \"Blue Iguana\" is sort of a genre exercise, but there are moments when it wants to be taken seriously, too. It's a heist movie, where a ragtag group of con men and ex-cons team up, and then mid-way through decide to go for a much bigger fish. The inspirations for \"Blue Iguana\" come from movies and comic books, not from real life. There's not anything wrong with that necessarily (Tarantino has been very successful doing the same), but without an establishing tone or style\u2014the first scene sits there on the screen like a void\u2014it can come off as trying to jump on some already-long-gone bandwagon.\nOnce they get to London, Eddie and Paul participate in a series of shoot-outs and fights filmed with a mix of slo-mo and speeded-up action. Bullets fly, bottles explode, wood shatters (nobody in the movie appears to be a good shot). These extremely over-stylized sequences really engage Hajaig. A lot of thought and care have gone into them, but the pumped-up fights come out of another movie altogether. They don't fit at all. \"Blue Iguana\" is about two goofy guys who get into a situation way over their heads. They aren't ninjas or masterminds. They're bumblers. The violence and gore in \"Blue Iguana\" is extremely jarring, underlining the impression that it's a feather-light romantic comedy yearning to be free of its Tarantino trappings.\n\"Blue Iguana\" is filled with many \"hat tips\" to other movies (\"Reservoir Dogs,\" \"True Romance,\" there's even a \"Weekend at Bernie's\" nod, and there's a gun hidden in the bathroom straight out of \"The Godfather,\" ruined by Paul commenting on it with \"I'm not Al Pacino!\"). There's so much of this that \"Blue Iguana\" feels like a series of parody sketches. At times, though, \"Blue Iguana\" achieves a certain goofball charm. The movie finds a groove about 25 minutes in (a long time to wait). Hajaig leans heavily on the actors to fill in the blanks, provide humor. Rockwell and Fox, in particular, do wonderfully well with this\u2014as does Amanda Donohoe in a small role, but it's too heavy a load placed on the actors.\nThere are moments where you can feel something \"real\" bubbling up onscreen. Katherine may be a snooty British glasses-wearing woman but she speaks with her mouth full, her lips always covered in crumbs. There's legitimate sexual chemistry between Eddie and Katherine, but they are both so awkward they can't deal with it. Hostility signaling love/lust has a long movie pedigree, and in these sequences you can see what really interests Hajaig. Forget the Sergio Leone-via-Tarantino slo-mo shoot-em-up ballets. Forget the plot itself. The real spark onscreen is what is going on between the woman pigging out on a burger, and the guy staring at her from across the table, wondering why he's so attracted to a woman with French dressing dribbling down her chin. Rockwell and Fox are very funny and very strange together. You get weirdly invested in them.\nIn the mid-to-late 1990s, Sam Rockwell was a big fish in the small pond of independent film. Some of the films he made were very bad, some were very good (\"Box of Moonlight,\" \"Lawn Dogs\"), but he always stood out. For those of us who had started to track him, he was often the reason to go see some of these movies. He was handsome, but in a very \"real guy\" way. He wasn't self-serious. He was a bit of an oddball. \"Confessions of a Dangerous Mind\" was George Clooney's directorial debut, and so it got a lot of attention. Clooney recognized Rockwell as an eccentric and gifted actor, and gave him free rein. \"Confessions\" didn't exactly turn Rockwell into an A-list star, but being a star didn't seem to be what interested him about acting anyway. One of his best performances was in Duncan Jones' \"Moon,\" a haunting sci-fi film where he plays a double role (astronaut Sam Bell and his possible clone). He's the only person in the film and it's a mini tour de force. Taking small parts in movies like \"Iron Man 2\" and \"Cowboys and Aliens\" probably gave him the financial stability to keep appearing in theatre productions and smaller risky films. (I saw him play Stanley Kowalski in a 2011 production of A Streetcar Named Desire at Williamstown. He was breathtaking and\u2014the biggest feat of all\u2014made me forget Brando's original performance while I was watching him.) Rockwell won an Oscar last year for his supporting role as Dixon, the racist cop in \"Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri,\" but if you look at Rockwell's career as a whole, Dixon is an anomaly. It's not really what he's all about. Last month came the news that Rockwell would be playing Bob Fosse in an upcoming limited series on FX. Rockwell can dance, in his own bizarre way, and the thought of him as Fosse is already thrilling. Time will tell.\nIn his interview in the 2009 documentary \"I Knew It Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale,\" Rockwell spoke eloquently about Cazale's influence and example, especially in regards to the goldmine that is the \"beta male\" character. Most male actors want to play Michael Corleone, Rockwell observed, but Cazale showed men the possibilities in Fredo. Rockwell brings that to bear in \"Blue Iguana.\" He's not afraid to look foolish or weak. He can find the humor in a pause, a thought, a gesture. He dials it all down and focuses solely on Phoebe Fox. He understands that's the only arc that really matters.",

Weir and Doughty share singing duties, trading off on Jerry Garcia\u2019s original vocal part.\nSlightly Stoopid had previously visited TRI and performed with Weir in 2011, but their sense of wonder in working with the legendary guitarist hasn\u2019t diminished. \u201cIt was an honor to play \u2018Franklin\u2019s Tower\u2019 with Bob Weir,\u201d drummer Ryan \u201cRymo\u201d Moran told Rolling Stone. \u201cI grew up in Marin County and the music and culture of the Dead was all around us. My sister would give me hand-me-down bootleg cassette tapes of live Dead. I went to my first shows in high school at the Shoreline Amphitheater. The Dead were a huge influence on my musical path. I appreciate the chances they would take with sound creation, texture, dissonance, improvisation and exploration. I loved that the space and drum improvisations every night had a different musical direction. I admire their career choices and path as a touring band with a devoted fan base.\u201d\nDoughty concurs. \u201cIt\u2019s really amazing to jam with someone like Bob who was one of the musical pioneers of American music,\u201d the singer-guitarist told RS. \u201cUniting [Bob Weir] with Slightly Stoopid is really a perfect match,\u201d Denson adds. \u201cThey approach music in a very similar way, great songwriting first.\u201d\nSlightly Stoopid have been on tour since June, and their Return of the Red Eye run continues through August 28th. Bob Weir\u2019s summer tour with Dead & Company winds down July 30th.\nIn This Article: Bob Weir,\tSlightly Stoopid,\tThe Grateful Dead",

The 24-date fall trek launches October 13th in Riverside, Iowa and concludes November 18th in West Hollywood, California. Tickets go on sale Tuesday, August 14th.\nThe Big Bad Blues, the singer-guitarist\u2019s second solo record, marks a return to the formative blues style he explored with ZZ Top. The LP, out September 21st, features six original tracks alongside covers of Muddy Waters, Jerome Green, Bo Diddley and Gilly Stillwater.\nGibbons recently previewed the album with his gritty rendition of Waters\u2019 \u201cRollin\u2019 and Tumblin\u2019.\u201d In a statement about the project, he praised the blues tradition as a \u201cprimordial\u201d force.\n\u201cNobody gets away from the infectious allure of those straight-ahead licks!\u201d he said. \u201cI suspect Jimmy Reed did me in early on.

        "raw_content": "Classics and Interpretations\nThe Hermeneutic Traditions in Chinese Culture, 1st Edition\nEdited by Ching-I Tu\nIn recent years in the \"West,\" scholars have attempted to unravel old constructs of interpretation and understanding, using the discipline of hermeneutics, or the scientific study of textual interpretation. Borrowed from students of the ever growing body of biblical interpretive literature that originated in the early Christian era, theoretical hermeneutics has given many contemporary scholars potent tools of textual interpretation. Classics and Interpretations applies this method to Chinese culture. Several essays focus on hermeneutic traditions of Neo-Confucianism. Others move outside of these traditions to attempt an understanding of the role of hermeneutics in Taoist and Buddhist textual interpretation, in Chinese poetics and painting, and in contemporary Chinese culture.\nThis volume makes a concerted effort to remedy our ignorance of the Chinese hermeneutical tradition. Part 1, \"The Great Learning and Hermeneutics,\" demonstrates the use of commentary to define how the individual creates his social self, and discusses differing interpretations of the Ta-hsueh text and its treatment as either canonical or heterodox. Part 2, \"Canonicity and Orthodoxy,\" considers the philosophical touchstones employed by Neo-Confucian canonical exegetes and polemicists, and discusses the Han canonization of the scriptural Five Classics, while illuminating a double standard that existed in the hermeneutical regime of late imperial China. Part 3, \"Hermeneutics as Politics,\" discusses the transformation of both the classics and scholars, and explores the dominant hermeneutic tradition in Chinese historiography, the scriptural tradition and reinterpretation of the Ch'un-ch'iu, and reveals the pragmatism of Chinese hermeneutics through comparison of the Sung debates over the Mencius. The concluding sections include essays on \"Chu Hsi and Interpretation of Chinese Classics,\" \"Hermeneutic Traditions in Chinese Poetics and Non-Confucian Contexts,\" \"Reinterpretation of Confucian Texts in the Ming-Ch'ing Period,\" and \"Contemporary Interpretations of Confucian Culture.\"\nThrough these literate and brilliantly written essays the reader witnesses not merely the great breadth and depth of Chinese hermeneutics but also its continuity and evolutionary vigor. This volume will excite scholars of the Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist systems of thought and belief as well as students of history and hermeneutics.",

        "raw_content": "The Idea of Global Civil Society\nEthics and Politics in a Globalizing Era, 1st Edition\nEdited by Randall Germain, Michael Kenny\nThis book evaluates the claim that in order to explore the changing social foundations of global power relations today, we need to include in our analysis an understanding of global civil society, particularly if we also wish to raise ethical questions about the changing political and institutional practices of transnational governance. Bridging the normative concerns of political theorists with the historical and institutional focus of scholars of international relations and international political economy, this book is of broad interest to students and researchers concerned with international relations, civil society, global governance and ethics.\nRandall D. Germain is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at Carleton University, Canada. He is the author of The International Organization of Credit: states and global finance in the world-economy (Cambridge University Press, 1997), and the editor of Globalization and Its Critics: perspectives from political economy (Palgrave, 2000). He has also published in journals such as The European Journal of International Relations, Review of International Studies, Review of International Political Economy, and Global Governance.\nMichael Kenny is Professor of Politics at the University of Sheffield, UK, where he has taught since 1993. Before that he was a Lecturer in Politics at the Queen's University, Belfast, 1990-3. His principal research interests are in the fields of Anglo-American political thought and intellectual history. He has authored a study of the political ideas of the British New Left (Lawrence and Wishart 1995) and co-authored a guide to Anglophone literature on the history of political thought (with R.Eccleshall, Routledge, 1995). He is the co-editor of volumes on political theory and environmental policy (with J.Meadowcroft, Routeldge, 2000); and discourses of decline in British political thought (with R.English, Macmillan, 2000). He is the author of a number of scholarly papers, including studies of: the political theory of Isaiah Berlin; social democratic thought and the politics of New Labour; the political ideas of Edward Thompson; and (with Dr R.Germain) the uses/abuses of Antonio Gramsci in International Relations theory. He is author of 'Political Theory and the Politics of Identity' (forthcoming Polity Press, 2004).\nRIPE Series in Global Political Economy\nFor almost two decades now, the RIPE Series published by Routledge has been an essential forum for cutting-edge scholarship in International Political Economy. The series\u3000brings together new and established scholars working in critical, cultural and constructivist political economy. Books in the RIPE Series typically combine an innovative contribution to theoretical debates with\u3000rigorous empirical analysis.\nThe RIPE Series seeks to cultivate:\nField-defining theoretical advances in International Political Economy\nNovel treatments of key issue areas, both historical and contemporary,\u3000such as\u3000global finance, trade, and production\nAnalyses that explore the political economic dimensions of\u3000relatively neglected topics,\u3000such as the environment, gender relations, and migration\nAccessible work that will inspire advanced undergraduates and graduate students in International Political Economy.\nJames Brassett \u2013 Warwick\nEleni Tsingou \u2013 Copenhagen Business School\nSusanne Soederberg \u2013 Queen\u2019s",

Photo: promotional material\nThe Open Kitchen culinary market is entering its fifth season. In addition to Ljubljana, where it\u2019s coming to life today, the market will also pay visits to Celje, Koper, and Nova Gorica.\nBojana Rugelj\nWhen the weather is nice on Fridays, space is in short supply on Ljubljana\u2019s Poga\u010dar Square. Photo: promotional material Foto:\n\u201cAs we have always done, we are beginning the season in Ljubljana, on Poga\u010dar Square, where we will meet and spend time enjoying great food and drink every Friday with nice weather, for as long as the conditions will allow in the fall,\u201d says project manager Alma Kochavy, as she was getting ready to open the new season. The Open Kitchen will also pay visits to other Slovenian towns. Celje is the first on the list; it\u2019s scheduled for Saturday, April 1. A visit to Koper will follow on Saturday, April 15, while this year\u2019s first visit to Nova Gorica is planned for Wednesday, April 26.\nThe Open Kitchen culinary roadshow will visit the Celje Town Market, the Carpaccio Square and Tavern in Koper, and the Bevk Square in Nova Gorica once a month except in July and August. \u201cOur schedule will be more vacation-oriented then and the Open Kitchen will be limited to Fridays in Ljubljana,\u201d explains Alma Kochavy. Poga\u010dar Square will become a culinary social venue every Friday in March, April, May, and October between 10 a.m. and 9 p.m., and every Friday between June and September between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m.\nCulinary treats from around Slovenia and the world\nThe concept of the market, which has won raves from both Slovenian and foreign visitors, is remaining unchanged and is focused on variety, originality, freshness, and quality. It showcases dishes from all corners of Slovenia and various international cuisines, which are complemented with a wide variety of wines, cocktails, beer, and other drinks. Last year, no fewer than 75 businesses participated at the 40 Open Kitchen events, and even more are expected this year.\n\u201cWe spent the past few months in intensive discussions with our providers, and I\u2019m happy to report that we will be able to introduce new culinary stories, new chefs, and new restaurants to this year\u2019s Open Kitchen events. I feel that we\u2019ve already reached a plateau when it comes to international cuisine, so we\u2019ll place a stronger emphasis this year on restaurants from various regions of Slovenia,\u201d says Open Kitchen President Lior Kochavy. However, he points out that Open Kitchen does not plan to keep expanding the list of participants indefinitely because it is focused on maintaining quality. \u201cWe will not back away from this. We differentiate ourselves from other, similar projects precisely because our street food is conceived in some of Slovenia\u2019s best restaurants, such as Hi\u0161a Franko and JB Restaurant,\u201d adds Lior Kochavy.\nExcess food not discarded\nOne of the unique aspects of Open Kitchen is its \u201cgreen soul.\u201d Organizers of the event try to separate all trash and use recyclable or biodegradable packaging. \u201cBecause we love and respect food, we don\u2019t throw any of our excess food away. We are working of the Under the Roof charity, which distributes already prepared meals to families in need, and makes its own meals in its soup kitchen from unused ingredients,\u201d explains Alma Kochavy.\nA.

        "raw_content": "I wonder if you have ever been subject to a case of mistaken identity?\nTo my amusement I read the other day about a group of priests who went into a pub in Cardiff to celebrate the ordination of one of their number. Thinking they were a stag party in fancy dress and anxious to avoid any trouble, the pub manager initially threw them out. The priests managed to convince the manager that they really were priests and an embarrassed publican offered them a free round of drinks by way of an apology.\nWhen Mark Fuller wrote in last month\u2019s Gazette that he was leaving Yaxley, several people mistakenly assumed it was me who was going. If that was a cause of celebration I\u2019m sorry to disappoint you \u2013 I\u2019m still here! I\u2019d like to take this opportunity to thank Mark publicly for the huge contribution which he made to life here \u2013 both in the church and the community. We wish Mark, Becci, Josie and Ethan well in their new home and ministry in Portishead.\nIt seems to me that many of us think our identity is linked to what we do, what we have, what school we attend, etc. However, I believe that\u2019s a real case of mistaken identity. Back in Genesis, the Bible tells us that we are made in the image of God. Early in his Gospel, drawing on the language of Genesis, John tells us that everyone who believes in Jesus is given power to become a child of God. That for me is our true identity \u2013 children of God who are invited to live in his everlasting Kingdom.\nIf you\u2019d like to explore more about your true identity as a child of God please feel free to join us at any of our services \u2013 see our events calendar for more details, or get in touch to find out more.\nFiled Under: Featured Tagged With: Cardiff, child, God, Gospel, identity, image, Jesus, John, Kingdom, language, mistake, Portishead, power, priests, pub, St. Peter's, story, true, Yaxley",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Representative Cases \u00bb Interventional cardiologist\b\u2026\nSettlement Amount: $600,000.00+\n(Failure to Timely Diagnose and Treat Uncontrolled Pericardial Bleed; Failure to Properly Monitor and Ensure Patency of Pericardial Drain; Resulting in Anoxic Encephalopathy and Death) This lawsuit results from an injury, and subsequent death on May 1, 2003, sustained in the course of medical treatment that F-74 received at Rush North Shore Medical Center (n/k/a NorthShore University HealthSystem) in April 2003. On April 4, 2003, Plaintiff (a pack-a-day smoker, off and on for 45+ years) was admitted to Rush North Shore Medical Center with a history of marked shortness of breath for the last 3-4 days with chest pain. Between April 4, 2003 and April 8, 2003, Plaintiff underwent diagnostic work-up and treatment. On April 9, 2003, Dr. Carl Tommaso performed a coronary angiography, left heart catheterization, and percutaneous intervention of the right coronary artery with placement of three stents and a temporary pacemaker. Thereafter, she taken to the cardiac surveillance unit (\u201cCSU\u201d). Approximately one and half hours later, Plaintiff suffered a cardiac tamponade that Tommaso alleviated with pericardiocentesis (200 cc\u2019s of blood removed) and he inserted of a pigtail catheter into the pericardium for draining. Plaintiff was then returned to the cardiac catheter lab where right coronary angiography, right ventriculography, left ventriculography and aortography was performed including the placement of an additional stent in the ostium of the right coronary after surgical consultation with Dr. Jonathon Somers (cardiovascular surgeon). No site for the bleeding was identified.\nPlaintiff was taken to the medical intensive care unit (\u201cMICU\u201d) where she was monitored by Nurse Mary Mathew. Upon her arrival to the unit, Plaintiff\u2019s medical records indicate approximately 1600 cc\u2019s of blood drainage from her pericardium. Over the next two and half hours, Plaintiff bled an additional 1150 cc\u2019s from her pericardial drain. At approximately 7:44 p.m., Plaintiff went into cardiac arrest and had a second cardiac tamponade, and a \u201cCode Blue\u201d was called. Dr. Osama Ibrahim, MD (2nd-year internal medicine resident) and/or Gupta, MD (cardiology fellow) withdrew 200 cc\u2019s of blood from the pericardial drain using the attached syringe; it was concluded that the sole cause of the second pericardial tamponade was due to the accumulated 200 cc\u2019s of blood. Plaintiff was then resuscitated, but her pupils were noted to be fixed and dilated; Plaintiff was found to have suffered anoxic encephalopathy secondary to her code. Dr. Somers was never re-consulted until after the code. Plaintiff\u2019s condition continued to deteriorate thereafter until she was transferred to Hospice on April 22, 2003 and later died on May 1, 2003.\nPlaintiff contended that Tommaso failed to timely seek surgical intervention to stop Plaintiff\u2019s heart from continuing to bleed into her pericardium. Plaintiff contended that the hospital and Nurse Mary Mathew failed to properly monitor the patient and failed to ensure the patency of pericardial drain.\nDefendant Rush North Shore Medical Center settled this matter after the trial judge, Hon. Deborah M. Dooling, denied its motion for summary judgment on the issue of proximate cause. Defendant Tommaso had already agreed to settle this matter.\nInjuries: On May 1, 2003, 74-year old Plaintiff died as a result of pneumonia secondary to her anoxic encephalopathy. Plaintiff was survived by her three, adult children.\nWhat Each Defendant Paid: Carl Tommaso, MD ($600,000). Rush North Shore Medical Center (confidential).\nInsurance Company: ISMIS insured North Shore Cardiologists, S.C. and Carl Tommaso, MD. was a named additional insured. Rush North Shore Medical Center was insured by Chicago Hospital Risk Pooling Program (\u201cCHRPP\u201d).",

        "title": "My Husband Isn't My Best Friend, And This Is Why",
        "raw_content": "My Husband Isn\u2019t My Best Friend, And This Is Why\nAnchiy / Getty\nThere are lots of predictable occurrences in life. You can pretty much bet that if you straighten your hair or wash your car, it\u2019s going to rain; or that Googling any number of random symptoms, no matter how minor, will convince you that you\u2019re afflicted with a life-threatening illness.\nAnd when someone posts a Facebook status or meme about their wedding anniversary\u2014or buys a card or makes a verbal statement\u2014it\u2019s practically guaranteed that the phrase \u201cbest friend\u201d will be thrown in there somewhere. I married my best friend. I\u2019m so lucky to wake up to my best friend every morning. So thankful for my best friend. Hashtag best friend, hashtag blessed.\nBut I don\u2019t like to say that. Because my husband is not my best friend.\nSaying he\u2019s my best friend is like saying \u201cit\u2019s a little breezy\u201d while a tornado blows your house to smithereens. It\u2019s like calling the Grand Canyon a ditch. There\u2019s no phrase that could ever adequately encompass the level of closeness between us, no pithy saying that could ever do it justice.\nBefore you start rolling your eyes and/or gagging, let me say this: It\u2019s not because we\u2019re this exceptional partnership, or some epic love story for the ages. This is not a \u201cmy marriage is better than your marriage\u201d type of thing. We\u2019re a normal couple who has been together for a long time. We argue over stupid stuff, over important stuff, because one of us is being difficult (never me, of course). We butt heads on issues big and small, reasonable and petty. Life gets in the way, and we realize it\u2019s been months since we\u2019ve had a date night or weeks since we\u2019ve gone to bed at the same time. And he knows how to push my buttons quicker than anybody else on this earth, ever\u2014exactly what to say, what to do, what look to give to rile me right up (like pooping at inconvenient times, for one thing).\nBut therein lies the beauty of our relationship, and the reason that \u201cbest friend\u201d seems like an insufficient title. Not that he knows exactly how to piss me off, but that he knows me so intimately in every aspect, and vice versa. My best friend might know that I\u2019m petrified of zombies, but my husband knows that I\u2019m petrified of zombies because when I was 5 my older siblings let me watch Return of the Living Dead while they were left in charge (great call, Mom and Dad).\nMy best friend might be able to tell you that I despise fish, or that tequila gives me a wicked hangover, but my husband can tell you my social security number, what medication makes me swell up like an overfilled balloon, and the story behind the tattered and dirty stuffed bear I still display in our bedroom. He can also tell you how I\u2019ll react to any given situation, what I love more deeply than anything, and the fears, experiences, and traumas that cut me to the core. He knows the things I don\u2019t say and feels the things I can\u2019t put into words.\nI love my best friends. They are dear and important and a vital component of my well-being. We\u2019ve had some fun, hilarious, amazing times together. But as much as I adore them, I\u2019ve never made critical decisions based on their circumstances. I\u2019ve never cried with them as I watched our shared life crumbling beyond our control or fought like hell beside them to patch it up despite our differences. My friends can offer advice on major issues, but they\u2019re not as emotionally invested because\u2014at the end of the day\u2014it\u2019s not their life, not our life. And when I look at them, no matter how eternally thankful I am for their presence, my heart doesn\u2019t squeeze until it feels like it could explode.\nFriendships take effort, sure, but not the same as partnership. Friendships are relatively easy, but marriages are not. They take work and sacrifice and endurance. It\u2019s staying afloat together when the world is a shitstorm and paddling hard to right yourselves when you capsize. It\u2019s an exertion that deserves an infinitely more distinct title than \u201cfriend.\u201d You can friend someone you don\u2019t even know on Facebook. It doesn\u2019t come close to being in the same category as the layered, messy, beautiful, tangled, hard-earned love I share with the person I married, not even when you slap a \u201cbest\u201d on the front of it. The term \u201csoulmates\u201d doesn\u2019t cut it, either, because it indicates some kind of effortless romance so perfect that it transcends the everyday crap\u2014and we\u2019ve worked for the relationship we have, dammit.\nSo until someone comes up with a better turn of phrase, I\u2019ll just buy my husband an anniversary card that says something funny, and his laugh will make me laugh, and we\u2019ll share one of the moments that make us who we are: so, so much more than friends.",

        "raw_content": "Thailand: Drop Case Against Peaceful Conference Attendees\nScholars at Risk has issued an appeal to Thai authorities on behalf of a group of five scholars and students facing potential prosecution in connection with their attendance at the 2017 International Conference on Thai Studies.\nIn August 2017, authorities summoned the scholars, students, and one independent intellectual to the Chang Phuak Police Station in Chiang Mai, and accused them of violating an order issued by the National Council for Peace and Order, No. 3/2558, which bans political gatherings of five or more persons. The accusation appears to relate to the attendees\u2019 response to the heavy presence of police and military officers at the 2017 conferences; the accused reportedly displayed a banner that read, \u201cAn academic seminar is not a military base\u201d (translated from Thai).\nSAR urges the Thai authorities to drop any charges against the accused arising out of the non-violent exercise of the rights to expression, association, or academic freedom; and, pending this, to ensure that the case against them otherwise proceeds in a manner consistent with Thailand\u2019s obligations under international law.\nVia email to: opm@opm.go.th\nVia fax to: +66 2282-5131\nRe: Drop case against peaceful academic conference attendees\nI write again on behalf of the Scholars at Risk Network to express concern over the potential prosecution of a group of five scholars and students in connection with their attendance at the 2017 International Conference on Thai Studies. I respectfully urge you to direct the appropriate authorities to drop any charges against them, and, pending this, to ensure that the case against them otherwise proceeds in a manner consistent with Thailand\u2019s obligations under international law.\nScholars at Risk (SAR) is an international network of over 530 universities and colleges in 41 countries dedicated to promoting academic freedom and its constituent freedoms of thought, opinion, expression, association, and travel. In cases involving alleged infringement of these freedoms, Scholars at Risk intervenes in hopes of clarifying and resolving matters favorably.\nAs you are aware, in August 2017, Thai authorities summoned two professors, two students, and one independent intellectual to the Chang Phuak Police Station in Chiang Mai, and accused them of violating an order issued by the National Council for Peace and Order, No. 3/2558, which bans political gatherings of five or more persons. The accusation stems from their attendance at the 13th International Conference on Thai Studies, held from July 15-18, 2017, in Chiang Mai, which brought together scholars from diverse fields to discuss a range of topics, including those related to Thailand\u2019s military rule. Attendees at the 2017 conference reported a heavy presence of uniformed and plainclothes military and police; in response, the accused displayed a banner that read, \u201cAn academic seminar is not a military base\u201d (translated from Thai). The accused include: Chayan Vaddhanaphuti, Associate Professor and Director, Regional Center for Sustainable Development, Chiang Mai University, and Organizer, 13th International Conference on Thai Studies; Chaipong Samnieng, Ph.D. Candidate and Lecturer, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Chiang Mai University; Teeramon Buangam, M.A. Candidate, Faculty of Mass Communication, Chiang Mai University, and Editor, Prachaham News; Nontawat Machai, undergraduate student, Faculty of Mass Communication, Chiang Mai University; and Pakavadi Veerapaspong, independent writer and translator.\nSAR understands that, after a series of postponements, the prosecutor overseeing this case has submitted a recommendation to indict the accused scholars, students, and intellectual. The accused are reportedly expected to appear in Chiang Mai District Court on July 4, 2018. If convicted, they would be subject to imprisonment of up to six months, a fine of up to 10,000 baht (roughly USD $300), or both.\nWe again welcome any additional information that may explain these events or clarify our understandings. Absent this, the facts as described suggest that these individuals are being subject to potential criminal prosecution as a result of the nonviolent exercise of the rights to freedom of expression, freedom of association, and academic freedom \u2013 conduct that is expressly protected under international human rights instruments including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which Thailand is a party. Criminal investigations and prosecutions in connection with such activity raise serious concerns about protection for academic freedom, the higher education space, and democratic society generally in Thailand.\nSAR therefore respectfully urges you to direct the appropriate authorities to drop any charges against the accused arising out of the non-violent exercise of the rights to expression, association, or academic freedom; and, pending this, to ensure that the case against them otherwise proceeds in a manner consistent with Thailand\u2019s obligations under international law.\nWe appreciate your attention to this important matter and look forward to your reply.\nThe Honorable Don Pramudwinai\nColonel Suebsakul Buarawong\nDeputy Commander of the 33rd Military Circle\nKavila Camp, Wat Khet Sub-District\nEmail: warroom.mtb33@gmail.com\nThe Honorable Khemchai Chutiwong\nThe Office of the Attorney General\nThe Government Complex\nBuilding B 120 Moo 3\nChaengwattana Road, Thoongsonghong, Laksi\nEmail: ag@ago.go.th\nThe Honorable What Tingsamitr\nChairman of National Human Rights Commission\nE-mail: help@nhrc.or.th\nThe Honorable Zeid Ra\u2019ad Al Hussein\nThe Honorable Clement Nyaletsossi Voule\nEmail: freeassembly@ohchr.org\nFax: + 41 22-917-9006\nLocation Chiang Mai, Thailand",

        "raw_content": "The late-season Gulf of Mexico storm rapidly intensified to a category 4 before making landfall\nFUELED-UP FURY Hurricane Michael, shown here just hours before it made landfall along the Florida panhandle, gathered strength from unusually warm Gulf of Mexico waters before slamming the coast as a Category 4 storm.\nCall it an October surprise: Hurricane Michael strengthened unusually quickly before slamming into the Florida panhandle on October 10 and remained abnormally strong as it swept into Georgia. The storm made landfall with sustained winds of about 250 kilometers per hour, just shy of a category 5 storm, making it the strongest storm ever to hit the region, according to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s National Hurricane Center, or NHC.\nWarm ocean waters are known to fuel hurricanes\u2019 fury by adding heat and moisture; the drier air over land masses, by contrast, can help strip storms of strength. So hurricanes nearing the Florida panhandle, a curving landmass surrounding the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, tend to weaken as they pull in drier air from land. But waters in the Gulf that were about 1 degree to 2 degrees Celsius warmer than average for this time of year, as well as abundant moisture in the air over the eastern United States, helped to supercharge Michael. Despite some wind conditions that scientists expected to weaken the storm, it strengthened steadily until it made landfall, which the NHC noted \u201cdefies traditional logic.\u201d The fast-moving storm weakened only slightly, to a category 3, before hurtling into Georgia.\nAlthough it is not possible to attribute the generation of any one storm to climate change, scientists have long predicted that warming ocean waters would lead to more intense tropical cyclones in the future. More recent attribution studies have borne out that prediction, suggesting that very warm waters in the tropical Atlantic helped to fuel 2017\u2019s powerful storm season, which spawned hurricanes Irma and Maria.\nHurricane Harvey, fueled by unusually warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico in August 2017, also underwent a rapid intensification, strengthening from a tropical storm to a category 4 hurricane within about 30 hours. And this year, scientists reported that Hurricane Florence, which slammed into the Carolinas in September, was probably warmer and wetter due to warmer than average sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean.\nParticle Physics,, Science & Society\nThe Nobel Prize\u2013winning particle physicist discovered multiple particles and wrote popular science books.\nBy Tina Hesman Saey 7:37am, October 3, 2018\nWork on evolving new proteins from old ones takes the Nobel Prize in chemistry.\nBy Lisa Grossman 7:26am, October 2, 2018\nThree scientists, including the third woman to win a physics Nobel, are honored for their laser inventions.\nPhysiology,, Cancer\nBy Aimee Cunningham 3:48pm, September 27, 2018\nThe 2017-2018 flu season was one of the deadliest on record for the United States.\nBy Emily Conover 2:41pm, September 18, 2018\nA prototype detector demonstrates the technology needed for the DUNE experiment.\nBy Christopher Crockett 2:39pm, August 29, 2018\nNASA probe gets its first look at distant Kuiper Belt object\nOSIRIS-REx got its first glimpse of near-Earth asteroid Bennu.

        "raw_content": "SCM's history dates back to 1935, when Nicola Gemmani and Lanfranco Aureli, mechanical and foundry-work experts, began working together. In 1952 they produced their first woodworking machine, designed by Giuseppe Gemmani, an engineer who happened to be Nicola's son. Released shortly after were the B2, B3 and the most famous \"invincible B4\", which could perform four types of machining: surface planing, thicknessing planing, disk sawing, and punching.\nIn a short time, with its \"Invincible\" brand, SCM completed a full range of classic machines which allowed it to conquer all markets, making it a world leading producer. Right from the beginning, SCM established production systems that were based on the use of common standard components and units used for several models and thus laid the foundations for the concept of modularisation.\nIn the 1960s the founders were joined by Adriano and Alfredo, sons of Lanfranco Aureli, who together with Giuseppe Gemmani would lead and make the company grow.\nIn 1976 SCM developed the first solid wood machining centres and systems for doors and windows. In the mid-1980s it embarked on a campaign of acquisitions that would consolidate SCM's global leadership position.\nIn 1984 a decision was made to merge with the Mahros Group, and in 1985 to acquire Minimax, a leading producer of high-end machinery for the D.I.Y. market. Between 1986 and 1987 three acquisitions, designed to expand the market share, were completed. The first to be acquired, in 1986, was Gabbiani, a leading beam sawing machine producer.\nThen in 1987 two more companies joined the SCM Group orbit: DMC, a top-ranking sanding machine producer, and Morbidelli, with which SCM would enter the panel processing machinery sector. Two additional important acquisitions were completed in 1992. Routech, with which SCM has developed the technology for processing wood elements for the housing industry, and Stefani, a producer of edgebanders.\nIn later years, through further acquisitions and product development (Superfici in 2004, CPC and Sergiani in 2006, Celaschi in 2007) the Group has expanded its product range to such breadth and depth that had no parallels in the industry.",

        "raw_content": "Online and phone scammers have a dangerous new trick \u2013 Jane Bradley\nScammers can make it appear they are phoning from genuine numbers for companies and government agencies\nPublished: 06:00 Saturday 17 November 2018 Updated: 14:54 Thursday 22 November 2018\nOnce the fraudsters behind online scams claimed to be princes from far-away lands, but they\u2019re much more sophisticated now and much harder to spot, warns Jane Bradley.\nThe other day, my friend answered a call to her mobile phone and received a nasty shock. \u201cHello,\u201d said the voice on the other end. \u201cI\u2019m calling from HMRC. There have been indications that you have committed tax fraud between 2012 and 2017. You owe more than \u00a36,000.\u201d\nMy friend was more than slightly concerned. The fact that the call had come just days after she had submitted her self-assessment tax return to HM Revenue and Customs for this year tipped her towards believing that this nightmare could possibly be true.\nWhen she quickly checked the number which displayed on her phone screen during the call against the legitimate number cited by HMRC on its own website, they matched. When they called her back a few hours later, it again, appeared to be a call from the real HMRC number. The voice continued to tell her that the tax authorities were pressing serious charges against her and had a warrant for her arrest. They had case numbers and ID numbers. They asked her repeatedly if she had been aware of the fraud, or if it had been done without her knowledge.\nThey told her that she needed to hire a tax lawyer \u2013 or pay the full amount immediately. It was then that she became suspicious and hung up.\nDuring the call, she spoke to a number of different people and all were equally plausible and knowledgable about the situation. As my friend has been predominently a stay-at-home parent for a while, but has small amounts of money coming in from a variety of different sources, she was concerned that somehow she might have been overlooking a payment she needed to make for years. She was pretty certain that she hadn\u2019t \u2013 and hires a reliable accountant to manage her tax affairs \u2013 but suddenly, at seven months pregnant and alone in the house, she felt uncertain. And vulnerable \u2013 which is what the scammers play on. It seems that scams \u2013 and pretty sophisticated ones at that \u2013 are on the rise. The Annual Fraud Indicator from Action Fraud estimates the cost of fraud to the UK is \u00a3190 billion a year.\nREAD MORE: These scams have cost bank customers \u00a3500 million in six months \u2013 here\u2019s how not to be a victim\nPreviously, scams were limited to badly spelled emails claiming that an African prince was in need of help and needed thousands of pounds to be transferred to his bank account immediately. You could spot those a mile off. But the latest round are far more sophisticated.\nThe fact that the scammers could somehow alter their displayed phone number to match that of the real HMRC is terrifying \u2013 this is a fairly new addition known as \u201cphone spoofing\u201d. Yet it is not unusual.\nJohn MacKenzie, partner at law firm Shepherd and Wedderburn in Edinburgh, tells me that scams are becoming increasingly intricate, tricking even the most canny of consumers. \u201cThe scams are getting more and more sophisticated, and more and more concerning for the individual user or business,\u201d he said. \u201cThe quality of the emails is getting better and so it\u2019s difficult to, at a glance, pick out a scam.\u201d\nAs well as faking phone numbers in calls, fraudsters can also replicate mobile numbers in text messages sent to consumers \u2013 which they then believe to be from their bank \u2013 as they appear on the same text message conversation as legitimate messages from the customer\u2019s financial institution. Using advanced technology, the scammers insert special meta data into the transmission of the text message \u2013 so that, although it looks like it has come from the bank\u2019s number, it has not.\nREAD MORE: Scam warning: the fake TV Licensing emails designed to steal your bank details\nJust this week, consumers were warned to be on the lookout for fraudulent messages claiming to be from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DLVA). The government agency, which overseas matters such as driving licences and vehicle tax has issued a warning over emails and text messages that appear to be from it asking for personal information such as bank details. Another legitimate-looking email, this time purporting to be from the TV Licensing people, has also been doing the rounds.\nI got it myself and had to do a double take before I realised what it was. \u201cWe\u2019re sorry to let you know that the TV license could not be automatically renewed,\u201d it said. \u201cSomething has gone wrong with your payment.\u201d I did think for a split second that it could be real. One way to quickly identify a scam is to take a look at the email address it has come from. While the inital name which flashes up on the top of the email may seem legit, the actual address may be very different. In the case iof the email I was sent, it was nothing to do with TV licensing at all and was instead, a strange-sounding personal address.\nWhat is interesting about both the scam my friend almost fell for and the TV Licensing one is that they both link back to a legitimate website. My friend was told HMRC\u2019s web address over the phone. When she checked it, of course, it was the real site. Yet because it wasn\u2019t asking her to do anything via the site, that made no difference.\nMackenzie\u2019s advice is clear: \u201cPay attention to your bank or the relevant authority,\u201d he says. \u201cIf they say they do not ever ask you to transfer money online, anyone who does is not legitimate.\u201d Listen to the man \u2013 and be on your guard.",

Amy Klobuchar and John Hoeven Published 6:31 p.m. CT Aug. 6, 2014\nTexting is a common cause of distracted driving. (Photo11: AP )\nDistracted driving takes to high a price among all drivers\nKey to success is changing attitudes, similar to seat belts the past 40 years\nWhether it is sending a text, reading an email, or changing stations on the radio, it only takes a moment of distraction to cause a tragedy. In fact, research shows if drivers take their eyes off the road for just 5 seconds at 55 mph, they will travel the entire length of a football field. When you think about driving that far, that fast, without paying attention, it\u2019s not hard to see the potential for disaster.\nUnfortunately, drivers are taking that risk, and numbers are staggering.\nA recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that almost half of all U.S. high school students admitted to texting or emailing while driving. Every day, nine people die and more than 1,000 are injured due to crashes involving distracted driving. In 2012 alone, there were an estimated 421,000 people injured in crashes involving a distracted driver.\nBut these numbers don\u2019t tell the story of the people who have lost their lives and whose families are still suffering. Take the Logan family from Byron, who lost their daughter Deej to distracted driving in 2012. In the afternoon on the first day of her senior year, Deej was killed when she looked down to send a text and ran into the back of a school bus. She was just 17 years old.\nTragedies like this are occurring in Minnesota, North Dakota and across America. They are a stark reminder that putting a stop to distracted driving is a matter of life and death. It is also a call to action and why we have introduced bipartisan legislation that would bring resources to states taking a stand against distracted driving.\nThe Improving Driver Safety Act would expand access to an existing grant program that provides funds to states to boost enforcement laws and educate the public on the dangers of distracted driving.\nUnfortunately, too many states are being prevented from receiving this important funding. In 2013, out of 38 states that applied for grants, only seven qualified, leaving more than 50 percent in available funds unused. This year, only one state benefited from the program, and 70 percent of the funding was left unused. This makes no sense.\nOur bill would expand access to these distracted driving grants by adjusting the requirements to ensure more states that are taking steps to curb distracted driving aren\u2019t prevented from receiving funds. For example, if a state passes a law that bans texts messaging and makes it a primary offense, that state would be rewarded for moving in the right direction. Without our bill, that state would receive no support at all.\nWhile these steps are important, there is no single law that will end distracted driving. Instead, we need to start changing attitudes and raising awareness. It has been done before \u2014 in 1970, less than 15 percent of Americans used seat belts. Following a comprehensive education campaign by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, that number is now near an historic high of 84 percent. That same progress can be made with distracted driving.\nTo be successful, we each need to take responsibly and realize there is no text message worth dying for. We must reaffirm our commitment to paying attention behind the wheel and improving safety on our roads. Together we can help ensure no one will have to face the same tragedy the Logan family has had to endure.\nSen. Amy Klobuchar is a Democrat representing Minnesota. Sen. John Hoeven is a Republican representing North Dakota. A version of this commentary was submitted to media statewide.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.sctimes.com/story/opinion/2014/08/06/turn-amend-law-help-curb-distracted-driving/13697511/",

It describes what climate change adaptation is, why it is a priority and how organisations can include adaptation in their Sustainable Development Management Plans (SDMPs).\nNational Adaptation Programme (NAP)\nLed by Defra, the Government's Adapting to Climate Change policy work has led to the publication of the National Adaptation Programme (NAP). This programme sets out what government, businesses, and society are doing to become more climate ready and can be downloaded below or by clicking here.\nRelated documents can be found on the government website here\nThe issues around heatwaves and building temperature control are covered in a film examining how existing National Health Service hospital architecture may be refurbished to become more resilient to extreme summer heatwaves. The film can be viewed here.\nThe 2013 National Heatwave Plan for England seeks to prepare for and prevent the major avoidable effects on health during periods of severe heat in England.\nSupporting older people and building resilience to extreme weather\nLiving With Environmental Change (LWEC0 have produced a guidance note to describe how serviced can continue to support the wellbeing of older people and be resilient to extreme weather. You can download the guidance here.\nClimate change and health: a tool to estimate health and adaptation costs 2013\nThe WHO Regional Office for Europe prepared this economic analysis tool to support adaptation planning to protect health from the negative effects of climate change in European Member States.\nNational Adaptation Programme (NAP) 2013\nThe National Adaptation Programme was developed as a response to the UK Climate Change Risk Assessment and sets out what government, businesses, and society are doing to become more climate ready.\nNational Healtwave Plan 2013\nThe Heatwave Plan for England is a plan intended to protect the population from heat-related harm to health. It aims to prepare for, alert people to, and prevent, the major avoidable effects on health during periods of severe heat in England.",

The app is a comprehensive mobile solution for keep tracking of how your campaigns are going, with campaign statistics able to be viewed and bids and budgets updated.\nReal-time alerts and notifications make it easier for the app\u2019s Canadian users to respond quickly to the latest developments, perhaps after contacting a Google professional directly through the app. It isn\u2019t the first time Google has released an AdWords-related app, this having occurred in July 2014, but that was for the simplified Express version of the advertising platform, aimed at small businesses.\nThe new app for Canadian users isn\u2019t the only move that Google has made as of late to make the lives of AdWords users easier. That\u2019s because the search giant has also just introduced a single page showing all of the most recent updates. The new page, which you can view here, gives users a convenient overview of the newest updates, on a month-by-month basis, chronologically ordered.\nThe page constitutes a list of release notes, with the updates announced in February 2015, for instance, including performance-related fixes for the AdWords Editor and the automatic conversion of eligible Flash ads on the Google Display Network to HTML5 ads. Upgraded URLs have also been introduced, meaning that landing page and tracking URLs can now be managed separately.\nRecent months have also seen enhancements to Google Trusted Stores that enable more confident online purchases, Google Partners certification being made available for Google Shopping and the introduction of a new Diagnostics tab for easier troubleshooting in Merchant Center.\nThe one-line updates displayed on this release notes page is also linked to either a help document or a blog post providing further details for the user.\nIn a blog post announcing the change, Google\u2019s Matt Lawson, Director, Performance Ads Marketing, expressed hope that the new page would help users to \u201cstay up to date with AdWords as a \u2018one-stop shop\u2019 for discovering new innovations and helpful best practices.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Good To Know!, Lets Talk About Sex, Sex Tips, Top Picks\nSex toys and disability \u2013 what are the hottest accessible sex toys?\nPosted on 17th April 2015 4th December 2018 by Girl On The Net\nDisabled people have sex too, and there are a whole bunch of brilliant sex toys \u2013 from positioning products to vibrators \u2013 that can help you achieve exactly the kind of sex you want.\nIn the time I\u2019ve been writing about sex, I\u2019ve had three fantastic guest bloggers write for me about sex and disability. One lady\u2019s story was deeply erotic \u2013 she explained how her wheelchair meant she could sneak sexy snogs in the lifts at Marks and Spencer. Another blogger\u2019s experience was more depressing, covering the irritating questions that strangers ask about your sex life if you\u2019re in a wheelchair. One guy explained his passion for kinky sex, and how it can be tricky to tie your partner to the bed if you only have one arm.\nThere\u2019s often a stigma attached to talking about sex and disability, as if disabled people are somehow never horny. What a load of crap. While there\u2019s a range of mobility issues that can make certain sex acts more difficult, there are also plenty of imaginative ways to overcome some of the issues \u2013 hot positions and things to experiment with as well as, of course, awesome sex toys.\nThe aim of this blog is to give you a flavour of what\u2019s out there, so if you have a condition or injury that makes a specific type of sex tricky, you can see the kind of products that might help you get exactly what you want\u2026\nLet\u2019s start with these because when people think of sex toys and disability, they\u2019re usually thinking of positioning. If you have any condition which causes you pain or affects your movement, such as fibromyalgia, CP (cerebral palsy) or severe arthritis, then sexual positioning toys can help you get into the positions you want while also remaining comfortable while the sexy stuff happens.\nLiberator sex positioning \u2013 the Liberator range is a collection of different sexual positioning products \u2013 wedge shapes and firm cushions that will support your body to achieve the hottest angles during sex. You can also get ones with handcuffs attached, which are obviously even better \u2013 if, like me, you\u2019re quite kinky, then you probably agree that everything is better with handcuffs attached.\nWhile we\u2019re on the subject of handcuffs, let\u2019s not forget that any equipment you currently own can often be kinkified. Support bars, wheelchairs, bed handles \u2013 your mobility aids, as well as being handy for helping you get into a particularly comfy/hot/kinky position, can also be used for more risqu\u00e9 purposes.\nIf you want something that\u2019s specifically designed for sex, though, then look no further than a sex swing. These require either a frame or a fairly sturdy hook in your ceiling, but as someone who\u2019s had a go on one before I can tell you that they\u2019re pretty damn good when they\u2019re set up. The swing is designed to be adjustable, so you or your partner can move the straps to get your body in the right position, then it comfortably holds you while you get it on.\nAs my kinky guest blogger mentioned, tying someone up can be bloody tricky if you\u2019ve got limited movement, or only one hand. Much easier bondage solutions, of which I\u2019m a huge fan, include the basic wrist and ankle cuffs.\nOf all these, velcro cuffs are the most versatile. Although buckle handcuffs can be secured with only one hand, the velcro ones are even simpler, and can be torn off in seconds once you\u2019ve teased your partner into such a fit of arousal they want to escape and get on with the shagging.\nStimulation \u2013 vibrators\nVibrating wand toys are a must if you enjoy clitoral stimulation but either can\u2019t reach your clit or aren\u2019t able to get the right pressure or speed. The Doxy massager is my personal favourite here \u2013 it\u2019s got a long handle so you can position it however you like, and it\u2019s got large buttons that make it easy to switch speeds even when you\u2019re\u2026 umm\u2026 distracted. It\u2019s quite heavy, and it also uses a power cord, so if you need something lighter and more versatile (i.e. it doesn\u2019t have the power cable) then the Lelo Smart wand might be a good choice. However with the Doxy, if weight is a problem, then if you can lie on your stomach with it positioned beneath you, it\u2019s powerful enough that you don\u2019t need to grind on it that hard.\nIf you\u2019re after hands-free orgasms, then panty vibrators can be operated at the touch of a button, without needing to be constantly held and controlled \u2013 they do what they say on the tin, and sit comfortably in your knickers while you get off. In fact, there are a number of different remote controlled vibrators that are worth exploring if you\u2019ve got limited manual dexterity. Basic remote-controlled vibes include a handheld control pack, which saves fiddling about with small (and possibly quite lubed-up) buttons on a toy itself, and if buttons are tricky there are more high-tech options, like the WeVibe 4 Plus, which can also be controlled by a phone app.\nYou can also get voice-controlled vibrators \u2013 a particularly sexy option if you have a partner with a hot, rumbly voice or a brilliant accent. They\u2019re also useful if you\u2019re visually impaired \u2013 although some vibrators (like the Doxy) have big clear buttons, with raised textures so you know which is \u2018up\u2019 and which is \u2018down\u2019, some of the smaller bullet vibes can be tricky to control if you can\u2019t see the buttons. In terms of voice control, the Lelo Siri 2 is an interesting and unusual option \u2013 it vibrates in response to ambient noise, so you can adjust the patterns and intensity using music from your stereo, or someone\u2019s voice. This could be yours or a partner\u2019s, but either way, perhaps it\u2019s time to crack out the karaoke and get practicing.\nIf you\u2019ve got a bigger budget, sit-on machines like the Sybian produce very powerful vibrations and don\u2019t need to be held in your hand. They\u2019re basically like sitting on a washing machine, only far far more fun.\nFor people with cocks, it\u2019s worth checking out some of the options for powered male masturbators. The Pulse by Hot Octopuss is pretty revolutionary, and the company reports that they\u2019ve had some great feedback from disabled people who had struggled to orgasm previously, or for whom the Pulse gave them their first ever climax. It wraps around the penis, so you don\u2019t need to hold it in place, or have an erection in order to use it, and the pulsing vibrations are concentrated on the underside of the head \u2013 the most sensitive spot.\nNot everyone\u2019s going to be able to come from direct stimulation, but if your penis lacks sensitivity then you might want to explore the prostate using a prostate massager or similar. There are some people with spina bifida, for instance, who can get intense orgasms from prostate stimulation even if they aren\u2019t able to get an erection.\nIf you\u2019re deaf, be aware that some of the most powerful sex toys can also be the loudest! This might be no problem if you live in your own home with nice thick walls \u2013 or your neighbours are incredibly tolerant of sex noise. But if you can\u2019t hear and you\u2019re worried about the sound that something might make, be sure to check out the reviews underneath the product description. If you\u2019re in a shared house, you might appreciate this top tip too \u2013 when I was writing this article someone told me a story about deaf friends who were worried that their parents might knock on the door while they were in a compromising position. Their solution? Have sex against the door so you can feel the knock!\nLubes and penetration\nThere\u2019s a whole beautiful world of lubrication out there, and if you have a condition that affects how you self-lubricate, or a painful condition such as vulvodynia (persistent pain in the vulva) or vaginismus (involuntary tightening of the vaginal muscles) then lubricants can help. Depending on your condition, it\u2019s worth consulting with your doctor on the best type to use, as some can irritate the skin. However the most common options are:\nSilicone-based lube (nice and silky, lasts a long time, but isn\u2019t safe to use with silicone toys)\nWater-based lube (dries out slightly faster so you\u2019ll need to keep reapplying, but is safe to use with condoms as well as silicone toys)\nI should probably mention, too, that penetration isn\u2019t the be-all and end-all of an awesome shag. Things like frotting, oral and hand jobs aren\u2019t just for those times when you struggle to get into the right position \u2013 or when you\u2019re in a taxi and you can\u2019t wait to get home. If oral\u2019s your thing, there\u2019s a whole range of different flavoured and scented lubes to give you a bit of variety, as well as sensation lubricants that tingle or warm you when they\u2019re applied.\nIf you fancy something more unusual, how about Nuru massage? It\u2019s a technique that comes from Japan (where else?) which involves using your whole body to \u2018massage\u2019 your partner to climax \u2013 usually while they\u2019re covered in slippery massage \u2018gel\u2019. It can be a bit messy, but it looks super-hot, and is a great way to get their whole body involved in the sensations. Besides, if you\u2019ve a tiled bathroom (or those fully-tiled accessible bathrooms that you get in a hotel, for instance) then you\u2019re good to go. Just make sure you hose it down with the shower afterwards.\nA good strap-on is one hell of a versatile thing. If you do like penetration but you (or your partner) can\u2019t get or maintain an erection, then a decent strap-on is well worth the investment.\nDepending on which positions are easiest for you, you can either go with a standard strap-on, worn around the waist, or a thigh strap-on, which is worn around your leg. This kind of thing is especially useful if you\u2019re in a wheelchair \u2013 just strap it on, get your partner to sit down on it, and you\u2019re away. As an added bonus, a thigh strap-on leaves you crotch free so your partner can pleasure you while they\u2019re sitting on your lap: it\u2019s like exchanging gifts, only the gift is a shuddering orgasm.\nAdvice on sex and disability\nThere\u2019s fantastic sex advice all over the place, but there\u2019s also a hell of a lot of crap. So how do you narrow it down?

        "raw_content": "Holiday Bowl Betting Preview: Utah Is Too Good on Defense for Northwestern to Keep Up\nA winning record masked several Northwestern flaws, and expect the Wildcats to be exposed against an excellent Utah defense.\nBy Sam Chase\nNorthwestern Wildcats vs. Utah Utes (-7)\nMon., December 31, 7:00 p.m. ET\nThree things to know before betting on Northwestern-Utah:\n1. It was a tremendously enjoyable season for Northwestern football fans as the Wildcats surpassed all expectations with an 8-4 regular season record and a trip to the Big Ten Championship, where they trailed by a single score early in the fourth quarter before ultimately falling to Ohio State 45-24. It's no big secret, though, that Northwestern's record and division title overstate how good this team actually is. The Wildcats were immensely lucky to escape with a three-point win at home against Nebraska and only beat Big Ten basement dwellers Rutgers and Illinois by a total of 11 points (as a combined 34.5-point favorite). Even in the \"close\" losses the Wildcats suffered to elite Michigan and Notre Dame teams, the final scores were much closer than the actual action on the field. Northwestern finished only 6-6-1 against the spread. The fact that the 'Cats are a full-touchdown underdog in their bowl game despite having played for a conference title indicates that oddsmakers see them as having overachieved, as well.\nCollege Football Bowl Season Expert Best Bets\n2. This line would be tilted even further in the Utes' favor if not for injuries to Utah's starting quarterback Tyler Huntley and running back Zack Moss. The team played miserably without them in its most recent game, a 10-3 loss to Washington in the Pac-12 Championship Game. With that hard-to-watch performance fresh in everyone's mind, Vegas knows that the public isn't scrambling to put money on Utah as a touchdown favorite here.\nBut the Pac-12 title game looks like an outlier. Huntley returned to practice in early December, and says he'll start in the Holiday Bowl if he's cleared for contact. Washington's defense is also one of the very best in the country and shut down the Utes even when they did have Huntley and Moss (21-7 in September). But even without those players, Utah has played well overall, including scoring 35 points against a very good BYU defense less than a week before the Pac-12 Championship Game. Without the misplaced overcorrection for Utah's situation-specific struggles on offense, this spread would be in the double digits.\n3. The positive side of the Utes' loss in their conference title game was that they held a Washington offense with no shortage of high-profile players to only 10 points. It was a representative performance for a Utah defense that enters bowl season ranked 13th nationally in total defense (4.62 yards allowed per play) and 16th in scoring defense (18.5 points allowed per game). The Northwestern offense, which is 124th in yards per play (4.75) and 107th in points per game (23.7), won't give Utah much of a challenge. With Northwestern struggling offensively, its defense will spend a lot of time on the field, which will make it difficult for the Wildcats to keep up with an undervalued Utah offense.\nPick: Utah -7\nConfidence Level: Extremely High (on a scale of Low/Moderate/High/Very High/Extremely High)\ncollege football betting odds",

        "title": "We Should Give the Lord our Best Effort - Sister Clare and Companions",
        "raw_content": "We Should Give the Lord our Best Effort\nFr. Jos\u00e9 Luis Saavedra, SHM:\n\"We should give the Lord our best effort and that\u2019s something Father will be happy about\".\nFr. Jos\u00e9 Luis Saavedra, S.H.M., entered as a Servant Brother in 2001 and was ordained a priest in 2012. He coincided with Sr. Clare on various occasions throughout these years.\nAs any Servant Priest/Brother, I have shared very few experiences with Sr. Clare. However, I do recall two small anecdotes of when we collaborated in preparing the liturgical music for certain special occasions.\nThe first anecdote occurred when the Home of the Mother received approval as an International Public Association of Faithful from the Pontifical Council of Laity in Rome. As a sign of our faith and gratitude, the Home wanted to do our best in preparing the celebration. Three Cardinals each celebrated a Mass in thanksgiving to the Lord in one of Rome\u2019s many basilicas. The liturgical music played an important role and we made every effort to prepare it as best as we could. Each community of Servant Brothers and Servant Sisters prepared the different voices for the polyphonic pieces we would later practice together once in Rome.\nI\u2019m not sure if it was there in Rome when Sr. Clare took part in the choir practice. I just remember how in the months that followed, in the vows ceremonies and entrances into the Novitiate, we had to revisit some of those same songs. The choir practices were too few in number and too short, considering all we had to prepare. So, we tried our best to take good advantage of our practice time. I usually played the role of \u201cChoir Director\u201d, but seeing as how we didn\u2019t have a piano or tuning fork and oftentimes the sheet music got lost in the shuffle between celebrations, I sometimes forgot the right notes for the songs. Whenever this occurred, it just made things harder and we lost a lot of time. That\u2019s when someone mentioned that Sr. Clare would surely remember the notes. From that day on, the problem was solved. And whenever we began with a brand new piece of really complicated polyphony, I always began choir practice with, \u201cSr. Clare, could you please give us the note?\u201d Sometimes there were over thirty of us singing and nobody knew how to start the song. But she did. She had a unique musical talent, what is technically referred to as \u201cabsolute pitch\u201d or \u201cperfect pitch\u201d. Very few people have this gift and those who do have it are usually very experienced in music, with years of musical studies. I don\u2019t think she had studied music; she just had an unusually keen ear. She never liked it when I asked her to give us the note, especially because it made her the center of everyone\u2019s attention. And yet, she immediately responded and remained composed, making the effort to be docile. She quickly gave us the right note, to help shorten the practice time and once more disappeared from the center of attention. That way, we could start the song on the right note, and she always started on the right note.\nSinging in the Holy Land\nThe second anecdote happened in the Holy Land. The Home of the Mother organized a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in 2012, with our founder, Fr. Rafael Alonso. There were very few of us who could dedicate time and effort to the liturgical music on the pilgrimage. By that time, I was already a priest and was thus only able to help prepare the music on a couple occasions. On one of these occasions, we wanted to sing the Spanish song \u201cGethsemane\u201d, but it did not come out that well. You could tell we were nervous and that we had forgotten some of the lyrics. It was like one of those times where you keep humming with your mouth half-open, hoping that everybody else will keep singing the words that you have forgotten\u2026 But, this time nobody kept singing and we ended up either laughing or crying at how pitifully it came out. We found out that we were going to be able to have a Holy Hour in the Basilica of Gethsemane \u2013 with the entire Basilica all to ourselves, just for our group. Not only that, but we were also going to be able to walk through the garden with its ancient olive trees, amongst which Our Lord Himself prayed. We felt discouraged seeing that we were so few for the music. The guide himself kindly asked us to not sing that song, \u201cGethsemane\u201d, that we had sung before, as it had really come out so badly. That was when Sr. Clare \u201clost her patience\u201d in a good sense. She started preparing songs for the liturgical celebrations as we went along on our tours of the Holy Land. In fact while we were waiting to enter the Basilica (we were one of the last groups to enter), she taught Sr. Kelly Jo and me the voices for a song that we had to sing acapella!\nThere was not going to be guitar or anything, because it was a song with a solemn tone and a guitar would only clash. That meant that the entire song would depend on only three people. It was the song, \u201cWatch and Pray\u201d. The lyrics say, \u201cStay here and keep watch with me\u2026Watch and pray\u2026\u201d However, having practiced it so little, Sr. Kelly Jo and I were fairly reluctant to sing it. Seeing our hesitation, Sr. Clare said, \u201cOK. I\u2019ll start off on my own and then the second time you can both come in, and then the third time, I can sing the other voice.\u201d That \u201cother voice\u201d was really quite complicated. It was a very high voice with a completely different rhythm, what\u2019s known as \u201ccounterpoint\u201d. It was really difficult and I thought that the song might be too \u201cshowy\u201d and distracting, shifting the center of attention from the Lord to ourselves. I feel a bit ashamed now, having to admit this, but I even told Sr. Clare that I was worried that perhaps Fr. Rafael was not going to like it and he might find it out of place. That\u2019s when she told me something similar to what she told Fr. Kevin when he left Playa Prieta: \u201cWe should give the Lord our best effort and that\u2019s something Father will be happy about.\u201d\nLater on, during this moment of adoration, obviously the songs did not come out perfectly, but we did our best. What we did experience was an authentic spirit of prayer, and the Lord bestowed so many graces on us all. Father was very pleased with that Holy Hour. At a certain point in the celebration, while we were all gathered near the rock where the Lord prayed, Father had all the Servant Priests/Brothers and Servant Sisters place our perpetual vows cross on the rock, asking the Lord to grant us the grace that our cross and our prayer always be filled with the Cross and the Lord\u2019s presence.",

I\u2019m sure many of you have already seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens last night or early this morning, with some of you holding desperately to tickets for screenings this weekend. Good for you. I have now seen the film two times and can tell you its delightfully rewatchable. Also I found the IMAX 3D presentation to be better than normal 2D (there are actually some great moments that take advantage of the 3D). But lets get into todays news and tidbits, which includes the following:\nEarly concept art from The Force Awakens shows us characters and places not in the finished film.\nForce Awakens blasts U.S. box office record with $57 million on Thursday night\n50 Force Awakens Rumors That Turned Out to Be Completely False\nFind out what Harrison Ford said about people who share Star Wars spoilers.\nSee Force Awakens movie tickets from around the world.\nSee what a Empire-era Stormtrooper look like morphed into a First Order Stormtrooper?\nFind out why Adam Driver doesn\u2019t like his Kylo Ren mask.\nThe movie will screen at the White House.\nAll that and more, after the jump.\nArclight Theatres photo by Jen\nForce Awakens Breaks Thursday Opening Box Office Record\nStar Wars: The Force Awakens earned a projected $57 million in Thursday night showings in North America alone, destroying the previous record of $43.5 million set in 2011 by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Some box office analysts are saying it could even go higher than that. The film is playing around the clock in a majority of its record 4,134 theaters, and is very likely going to beat the domestic weekend record of $208.8 million set earlier this year by Jurassic World.\nHarrison Ford Warns People Not The Share Star Wars Spoilers\nIn an interview with Buzzfeed, Harrison Ford made a plea to people to not spoil Star Wars: The Force Awakens (of course, someone should have told Mr. Solo this during the Star Wars Twitter Q&A). Here is what Ford said:\nStop that. Don\u2019t do that. Please don\u2019t do that. Don\u2019t do that, because people are paying to get in and they should experience the movie. Talk about it later. Please. Don\u2019t tell people what happens before they go into the theatre. You paid for it. So let them pay for it. And let them enjoy the full satisfaction in having earned the experience, because you want your audience to have an experience, not have something served to them. There\u2019s a menu, you choose what you want to take from it. But you don\u2019t want to spoil it.\n50 Force Awakens Rumors That Turned Out to Be False\nScreenCrush has a great roundup of 50 rumors that were reported for Star Wars: The Force Awakens that turned out to be false. I\u2019m happy to report that /Film did not \u201cbreak\u201d any of these 50 false rumors. But I also must add that while many of these were completely false, at least a handful of these reports were at one time true, but the project evolved at many stages during production even as late as the last few weeks of editing.\nEvolution Of The Stormtrooper\nGadgetLove decided to morph the old Stormtrooper helmet with the new First Order stormtrooper helmer to see what it looked like.

        "raw_content": "P.J. Hogan to Direct \u2018Bone\u2019 For Warner Bros.\nFor many years a film has been in development based on the wonderful comic series Bone by Jeff Smith. The comic tells the story of three cousins lost in a strange land, where they\u2019re caught in the flare-up of an old conflict and realization of an ancient prophecy.\nBone was one of the best things to come out of the self-publishing wave of black and white comics in the early \u201990s. Initially championed by Dave Sim in the pages of Cerebus and very quickly embraced by both critics and audiences, the series ran 55 issues and stands as a landmark piece of comic storytelling. It has been republished in color and seems to find a new audience every few years.\nThe last time we heard about a possible film was when Jeff Smith revealed that he was \u201cactually excited\u201d about a four-minute CGI test clip. Warner Bros. is planning an animated three-film arc based on the comics, and a writer and director have finally been hired. Patrick Sean Smith, creator of the show Greek, is writing, and P.J. Hogan (Muriel\u2019s Wedding, My Best Friend\u2019s Wedding, Peter Pan) will direct. Read More \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "According to Cancer Research UK, around 309,500 people in the UK were diagnosed with cancer in 2008.\nThis is roughly 850 people every single day. Every day in 2009 more than 425 people died due to cancer. One person every four minutes.\nWhen it comes to cancer, early diagnosis is absolutely essential.\nCancer Research UK also revealed that almost half of people who get cancer are diagnosed late, making their treatment less likely to succeed thereby reducing their chances of survival.\nBritain as it happens has one of the worst records in Europe for early cancer detection and thus survival from it. If improvements were made to how soon cancer is detected it could save the NHS tens of millions of pounds a year through the reduced need for chemotherapies, radiotherapies and surgeries, as well as boosting many cancer sufferers chances of beating the disease.\nAlthough doctors will strive to avoid delays in cancer diagnosis and treatment, negligent practices can and still do occur. Such is the alleged case at NHS Dumfries Infirmary in Scotland, were the health board is accused over unnecessarily delaying a mans cancer diagnosis, leading to further complications.\nThe man, referred to as Mr A in a report by the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman, did not receive cancer treatment fast enough following an initial biopsy, say his mother and partner.\nIt was found that there was an unreasonable delay in arranging a blood test that can highlight testicular cancer.\nThe ombudsman stated: \u201cWe considered the delay in arranging this test was unreasonable as earlier scans had pointed towards testicular cancer and clinicians should have been aware of the potential for this diagnosis.\nThe advice we received was also critical that there was not a more proactive approach to Mr A\u2019s care following a urology referral and that his case was not discussed with oncology when it became clear there would be a delay in the biopsy result becoming available.\u201d\nMedical staff will always strive to ensure delays in cancer diagnosis don\u2019t happen, but unfortunately, these cases can and still do. If you have experienced an unnecessary delay in your cancer diagnosis leading to further complications, you could be eligible to claim compensation for medical negligence.\nFor more information, hold a free initial consultation with our medical negligence solicitors by calling 020 3740 3728 or email enquiries@specterpartnership.co.uk.",

        "raw_content": "Kids' school stress addressed by pioneering Uttoxeter yoga doctor from Mini Me Yoga\nAcademic's research shows emerging problem in UK's classrooms\nA Uttoxeter academic is channelling her inner chi to tackle the emerging issues of children's mental health problems and school stress - through the relaxing power of yoga.\nMini Me Yoga founder Dr Kate Bartram Brown PHD is travelling the UK to de-stress youngsters up and down the country.\nShockingly, she says her research has shown one in 10 children aged five-to-16 suffer from diagnosable mental health disorders.\nBut Dr Bartram Brown, whose qualifications are in natural medicine, claims her programme is helping them \"grow emotionally, socially, mentally and physically\" - and fending off the risk of mental issues in later life.\nKate Bartram Brown (front far right) with pupils and staff from St Wilfrid's Catholic Primary School, in Northwich, Cheshire.\nShe said: \"Young children are experiencing stress and anxiety which leads to mental and emotional disease which carries on into adulthood.\n\"Around three children in every class suffer from a diagnosable mental health disorder.\n\"We have children of all abilities, stress levels, socio-economic status, and many who require additional services at school for autism or other neuro-diverse needs that use the programme with a wide range of positive effects.\"\nHealthy living app from Staffordshire County Council needs 40-year-old plus triallists\nThe entrepreneur's sister-in-law, Kelly Bradley, from Uttoxeter, is an active campaigner aiming to prevent suicide in young people after her brother, Dan, who was also from the town, tragically took his own life in 2012, aged just 33.\nGetting life skills to children as young as possible has become a focus for her entire family, says Dr Bartram Brown, whose research paper was about \"improving children\u2019s mental and emotional wellbeing\".\nAnd Kelly's children, Elexie and Acacia Bartram, have become the faces of Mini Me Yoga, with their pictures featuring on the firm's literature.\nElexie and Acacia Bartram, from Uttoxeter, who are the faces of the company's advertising campaign.\nNow the programme is being used by Talbot First School, in Kingstone, and St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, in Uttoxeter.\nDr Bartram Brown, 40, said: \"Currently we're working with primary schools in the UK since our workshop is now eligible for the PE and sport premium Government funding. Schools are training their teachers to bring our programme into the classroom to help with the increasingly stressful life children have.\n\"It's been wonderful to hear that the primary school in Kingstone is to now undertake this training with one of the local ambassadors, Melissa Palmer.\n\"It's a lifelong dream to help all children but very special for it to be in practice in my home town.\"\nYoga is designed to improve mental health. (Image: Getty)\nAccording to the NHS website: \"Yoga is an ancient form of exercise that focuses on strength, flexibility and breathing to boost physical and mental wellbeing.\n\"The main components of yoga are postures (a series of movements designed to increase strength and flexibility) and breathing.\n\"The practice originated in India about 5,000 years ago and has been adapted in other countries in a variety of ways.\n\"Yoga is now commonplace in leisure centres, health clubs, schools, hospitals and surgeries.\"",

        "raw_content": "Why aren't your social media followers buying from you? (+Video)\nSocial media is a fantastic marketing tool because of its flexibility. You can use it to raise brand awareness, to improve customer service or to drive traffic to your website. If you use it for the latter, you will usually want users to buy from you or get in touch with an enquiry. But if they\u2019re not doing that, why is that the case and how can you change that?\nAre your social media followers relevant?\nOne of the big things to consider is whether your social media followers are relevant to your business and your products. This usually depends on how you acquired them.\nIf your follower base is built on friends and family, this is a big indicator as to why your social conversions are low. They\u2019re probably not that interested in the product, they\u2019re interested in you - that\u2019s why they liked your page.\nAnother common mistake is that when business owners run social media competitions in order to get more likes and followers, they don\u2019t always consider the \u2018quality\u2019 of these new people. When you run a competition, the prize should be one of your products. That way, any new followers are likely to actually be interested in your company and your products - as opposed to a cash prize or shopping voucher, which you\u2019ll find that any \u2018comper\u2019 will engage with. You want your fans to have a genuine interest so that when the competition is over, they continue to take an interest in your business and may purchase your products in the future.\nThe point is that you want your followers to be genuinely interested in your products and for that to be the reason why they liked your page in the first place.\nAre your product posts relevant?\nYou will probably promote certain products on your social media pages and this is the main way that you will encourage traffic to your website. But which products are you promoting?\nIt might be that you need to reconsider the types of products you push, and you may need to do some experimenting to identify which products work well on your social media page.\nYou should also remember that just because a competitor successfully posts a certain type of product on their page, it doesn\u2019t mean that the same product will work for you. You may have a different kind of audience who are likely to engage with a different kind of product. Are you promoting your footwear range when the majority of your social media audience is interested in your jackets?\nAre you too \u2018salesy\u2019?\nIf you come across as \u2018salesy\u2019 in your social posts, a lot of people will not want to buy from your brand on principle. You need to be friendly and interactive - this will go a long way to converting your social media followers to customers.\nBut sometimes even this is not enough. You may have heard of content marketing and the principle behind this is to provide your audience with something useful and of value (usually not directly related to your product) so that you can build their brand loyalty. Read our blog post on why we think content marketing is important for small businesses and start-ups for a bit more information on this!\nAre you promoting a product and forgetting to re-promote?\nSometimes your audience will see your product post and they might be interested. They may think that they do need that product in their life but might not be in a position to buy right there right then. They may have kids to look after or a heavy workload or they\u2019re in the middle of cooking dinner. But they are interested, so how can you get that purchase?\nYou can re-promote the same product maybe a few days later and with a bit of luck, your audience will be more likely to purchase this time. Sometimes you may need to promote a product three or four times to push your audience down the converting funnel.\nHowever, this tactic can be unpredictable. There\u2019s a chance you can irritate your audience if you constantly post the same product over and over again; be more subtle about it and you may be able to pull it off. It all depends on your particular audience and also how often you promote other things alongside your products and services.\nIf you\u2019re struggling to fully understand how to use social media to drive sales to your website, don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch and we\u2019ll be more than happy to help!",

Therefore the Department provides financial support in the form of a conveyance allowance to assist some families.\nThe Conveyance Allowance contributes to the cost of transporting children to attend their closest appropriate school/campus in rural and regional Victoria. The Conveyance Allowance is generally restricted to students attending schools located in rural and regional Victoria in recognition of the often limited public transport options to travel to and from school.\nTo be eligible, students must live in regional and rural Victoria and live more than 4.8km by the shortest practicable route from their nearest appropriate government or non-government school. The shortest practicable route is defined as the shortest distance by road from a student\u2019s house to the school gate.\nAn allowance may be payable if students are conveyed to school by private car, private bus (usually school chartered) or public transport.\nPrivate car reimbursement is calculated on a one-way travel distance between the student\u2019s place of residence and the school bus stop. A private car conveyance allowance is not available if the journey could have been made using a public transport service or free school bus.\nFor full eligibility criteria and further information, please refer to the DEECD Government Web Site where you can obtain further information.\nIf you believe you are eligible and wish to complete a Conveyance Allowance application form, please feel free to visit the school or phone us on (03) 5382 3545 for assistance.",

I pretty much couldn't jog without leaking. I would have to wear a pad, or make sure I had the right clothes on so if I did leak it wouldn't be too embarrassing when I was at the gym.\"\nAt her annual check-up with her OB/GYN, Rogers said she asked if there was anything to she could do to help with the urinary incontinence. She wasn't interested in surgery as she felt it would be too invasive, and was thrilled when she learned that St. Charles Health System had started offering a pelvic floor rehabilitation program.\nThe program is designed for men and women suffering from urinary and bowel incontinence and pain in the pelvic area, said Brooke Collins, a St. Charles physical therapist who started the program in October. Patients are seen for an hour each week for six to eight weeks in a private, comfortable room in the St. Charles Redmond outpatient rehabilitation clinic.\n\"The physical assessment includes an internal exam, muscular retraining, education and an individualized exercise program,\" Collins said. \"Pelvic physical therapy has been shown to improve stress urinary incontinence in 97 percent of cases and cure it in 75 percent.\"\nRogers is not 100 percent cured, but she says she feels her muscle strength is at about 90 percent and her quality of life has improved dramatically. She can exercise at the gym without worrying and can run without having to wear a pad for incontinence.\n\"If a sneeze caught me off guard before, I would lose it. My bladder didn't even have to be full. It would just happen. I had hardly any strength there at all,\" she said. \"Within three weeks I was noticing a definite difference.\"\nFor more information, contact the St. Charles Redmond Outpatient Rehab clinic at 541-516-3828.",

        "raw_content": "Deacon Christian Huebner\nThis past Thursday, September 27th, our own seminarian Christian Huebner was ordained to the diaconate in the Basilica of St. Peter in the Vatican. As a transitional deacon, Christian will be making his life changing promises. He will be pledging his obedience to the Archbishop of Washington and his successors. He will be making a promise to live the celibate life. He will also be promising to pray the Liturgy of the Hours regularly. All deacons, priests and bishops pray the Liturgy of the Hours also known as the Breviary. The Liturgy of the Hours consists of praying the Office of Readings, Morning Prayer, Daytime Prayer, Evening Prayer and Night Prayer. By praying the Liturgy of the Hours, the whole day is consecrated to God.\nWhile ordination to the priesthood tends to get everybody&apos;s attention, it is the ordination to the diaconate that is a huge existential change for the man. When I was ordained to the diaconate, I remember sitting in the pew with my family and then being called up to the altar. All of a sudden, the way you go to Mass changes radically. You stop going to Church just looking to be \"filled\" with a good homily, good music, or good liturgy. As a deacon, you go to Church now to serve the people of God in the pews and are very concerned about their salvation. While our seminarian Christian, already reflected the heart of Christ the servant, his heart will now be ordered by God (this is where we get the word \"ordained\") to love His people with total devotion by the grace Christian received at his ordination to the diaconate. This love of the people increases even more when a man becomes a priest and a pastor. Please keep our seminarian Christian in your prayers as he continues to prepare for his next ordination to the order of presbyters and the priesthood in June 2019. St. Edward the Confessor, pray for him!",

The entire plant, when finished, can produce 9 million tonnes of steel products annually.

        "raw_content": "Our Blog /2018 /January /Can Saying \"Sorry\" After an Auto Accident Hurt My Personal Injury Case?\nApologies are often a natural response to conflict, even if you weren\u2019t at fault for something. While saying \u201csorry\u201d to another person when you step on their foot may be a nice gesture, it is not the best thing to say after an auto accident. That\u2019s because apologies and something as simple as saying \u201csorry\u201d can potentially have a negative impact on your personal injury claim, and can create complications that hinder your ability to secure the compensation you need for the preventable injuries and damages you suffered.\nAs a proven Houston personal injury attorneys, our legal team at Stern Law Group is dedicated to protecting the rights of injured victims and families across Texas, and have handled many cases involving all types of car accidents. Because taking the right steps after an accident is crucial to your personal injury case, as is avoiding certain mistakes, we wanted to take the time to educate local residents about why it is best to avoid saying sorry.\nYou don\u2019t have all the facts \u2013 After an auto accident, you don\u2019t have all the facts regarding what happened and what led to the crash. Even if you think you might be at fault or contributed to the wreck in some way, there could be factors you are unaware of that truly led to the crash (such as another driver who was texting or distracted at the time, or who was driving under the influence). Remember, you do not have all the facts surrounding the accident to know who for sure is at fault. It is best to leave investigations into fault and liability up to police, insurance adjusters, and the attorney you choose to guide you through the personal injury claim process.\nIt can change the way others view what happened \u2013 By apologizing immediately after an accident, you can actually shape how others view and interpret what happened. When another driver hears \u201csorry,\u201d they may take that as an admission of fault, which can not only lead them to believe you caused the wreck (even if you did not) but also shape how they discuss the accident with law enforcement officers who compile police reports or their insurance representatives.\nThe Insurance company can use it against you \u2013 Insurnace companies who represent their policy holders in personal injury cases are first and foremost corporations. This means they all too often prioritize profits over people \u2013 even if those people are innocent victims harmed by their customers. When they have evidence of an apology that was made after a wreck, they may be quick to highlight this to support their claims that you caused or contributed to a collision somehow. The same is true of any apologies or admissions of fault you may make, even erroneously, during a recorded statement \u2013 which is why you should also avoid making any recorded statements with insurance companies, and let your attorney handle these communications on your behalf.\nWhether you said \u201csorry\u201d after your accident or not, it is still crucially important to bring your case to the attention of trusted attorneys. Our legal team at Stern Law Group has helped more than 40,000 clients during some of the most difficult times in their lives, and are prepared to do the same for victims and families who reach out to us for help.

        "raw_content": "North West wages worth \u00a32,500 less than in 2008\nAverage wages have dropped in North West since 2008. Photo: Dominic Lipinski/PA Wire\nAverage wages for North West workers are worth \u00a32,500 less than in 2008 - that\u2019s \u00a347 a week - according to new TUC analysis\nThe figures confirm that, despite some strengthening of wages over 2014 to 2015, workers in the region still have a long way to go to restore all the earnings they lost following the longest squeeze on wages since records began in the 1850s.\nThe government must do the right thing for the economy, and the right thing by workers\nThe average North West annual wage increased in real terms by \u00a3374 from 2014 to 2015 \u2013 the first annual increase for several years.\nHowever, current indications suggest the wage recovery may already be stalling. Monthly data on average weekly earnings from the Office for National Statistics show wage growth slowed in the second half of 2015.\nThe TUC warns that the government\u2019s plans to continue to hold back wages in the public sector will be a significant drag on average wage growth. And recent monthly surveys by employment information service XpertHR suggest private sector wage settlements remain well below their pre-crisis trend.\nThe TUC says that while forthcoming increases to the minimum wage have an important role to play in improving wages for some workers, this is not enough in itself. Concerted action from the government is needed to support stronger wage increases for all low and middle-income workers, not just those at the very bottom.\nHowever, the TUC warns that the government\u2019s Trade Union Bill will weaken the power of workers to negotiate a fair share of economic growth through decent pay rises. This could lead to slower wage growth becoming embedded as a longer-term problem, causing trouble not only for workers and their families, but also for businesses that rely on their spending.\nInstead of attacking workers and their representatives, the TUC is calling on the government to engage with trade unions to improve both pay and productivity through stronger collective bargaining rights, modern wage councils to ensure pay increases follow productivity gains, and worker representation on remuneration committees.\nTUC Regional Secretary Lynn Collins said: \u201cWorking people deserve a fair share of the wealth they create. But despite five years of economic growth, the pressure on their living standards has barely let up. The average annual wage in the North West is still worth nearly \u00a32,500 less than it was back in 2008.\n\u201cThe government must do the right thing for the economy, and the right thing by workers. They should invest more in the skills and infrastructure the UK needs for higher productivity. They should make sure that working people see productivity gains in their pay packets. And they should work positively with trade unions instead of attacking workers and their representatives with the Trade Union Bill.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "- Index Investing -\nMatching Market Returns\nIndex investing is a proven way for both beginning and experienced investors to participate in the long term performance of the stock market. The approach is well documented and amenable to both quantitative and qualitative investing styles.\nIndex investing is also the simplest way for an investor to match the total return of the stock market. Not more, not less.\nIt is also a great way for the novice to ease into investing.\nWhat is a Market Index\nA market index is a mechanism to track the aggregate value of a portfolio of stocks or financial instruments. It can represent a global, regional, national or exchange based portfolio or a subset of a market (e.g., sectors).\nThe change in index value represents the performance of the index.\nYou cannot buy an index, but you can buy a Mutual Fund or ETF tracking the index.\nIndex Examples\nThere are indexes representing most asset classes.\nStocks - the following are common indexes. Please note that \"diverse mix\" means diversity within the asset class (stocks). It does NOT imply diverse asset classes or asset allocation. Wikipedia has a comprehensive list of stock indices.\nWilshire 5000 - tracks all the stocks traded on the NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ exchanges. OTC stocks, MLPs and ADRs are not included.\nDow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) - comprised of 30 mega cap US companies. With only 30 components, there is not significant diversity with respect to sectors, but these are dominant companies. No MLPs are included.\nS&P 500 - a diverse mix of 500 large cap stocks traded on US exchanges. OTC stocks, MLPs and ADRs are not included.\nRussell 1000 - a diverse mix of up to 1000 large and mid cap stocks traded on US exchanges. ADRs and OTC stocks are not included.\nRussell 2000 - a diverse mix of 2000 small cap stocks traded on US exchanges. OTC stocks are inclued, but MLPs and ADRs are not.\nS&P/TSX Composite - a diverse mix of 250 stocks traded on the Toronto exchange.\nFTSE 100 - 100 stocks traded on the London exchange.\nNIKKEI - 225 stocks on the Toyko exchange.\nMSCI World - a diverse mix of over 1600 stocks from 23 developed countries. Excludes stocks from emerging economies.\nBonds - like stocks, there are indices which track bonds. Keep in mind there are both corporate bonds as well as government bonds.\nBloomberg Barclays US Capital Aggregate Bond Index - a market cap weighted index of government bonds, mortgage backed securities and corporate bonds. Municipal bonds and TIPs are excluded.\nCiti World Government Bond Index - government bonds of multiple countries.\nS&P 500 Bond Index - the counterpart to the S&P 500 stock index, it tracks the corporate debt issued by constituents of the S&P 500.\nCommodities - these indices are generally based on commodity futures and can be specific to a commodity (e.g., agriculture), or broad based.\nS&P GSCI - a composite index of commodity sector returns representing an unleveraged, long-only investment in commodity futures that is broadly diversified across the spectrum of commodities.\nDow Jones Commodity Index - a broad measure of the commodity futures market that emphasizes diversification and liquidity. Equal-weighted.\nThere are indexes for other asset classes, but they are generally stock based portfolios for a market sector associated with an asset class. For example, Real Estate has an index (MSCI Real Estate Index) that tracks Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) traded on the exchanges. It does not track real estate investing per se.\nFor appropriate ETFs to track an index, check ETF Database. Note that you can check the US tax status of each ETF to determine if you will receive a K1.\nIndex Investing Rationale\n\"Over time, the aggregate gains made by shareholders must of necessity match the business gains of the company.\" Warren Buffet\nIn The Little Book of Common Sense Investing, John Bogle advocates buying all available stocks in the market as a way to capture the cumulative earnings growth and dividends of the companies in the market. In other words, be a shareholder in all the companies and share in their performance.\nAnd as founder of Vanguard Investing, Bogle provided what he believed - ETFs and Mutual Funds offering retail investors index investing.\nFirst, he makes the case that the stock market as a whole actually represents the dividends and earnings growth of companies in diversified industries. For the period from 1900 to 2005, the average annual return of those companies was 9.5%. The stock market return for the same period was 9.6%.\nOkay. So maybe you aren't planning to be in the market for more than 100 years.\nNext, Bogle spends a great deal of time supporting the notion of passive investing. Passive meaning you trade very little; active meaning you actively pick stocks or baskets of stocks intending to outperform the market.\nHis view - you are more likely to get market returns with index investing than you are to outperform the market by any other means.\nAs far as I can tell, there is no \"past returns are no guarantee of future performance\" disclaimer in the book. On the other hand, if you believe businesses will continue to grow earnings and pay dividends in the future, a disclaimer isn't necessary. NOTE: Japan's NIKKEI index has never recovered to it's all time high in 1989.\nHolding period and rebalancing\nFor index investing there is one index - the entire market. In the US, this means the Wilshire 5000. There is no ETF directly associated with the Wilshire 5000, but VTI does track the entire US market.\nThe holding period - forever. Or until there is a need and you begin cashing in (e.g., retirement).\nIn a cap weighted index there is nothing to rebalance. It remains cap weighted unless the number of shares changes. Action is required by the managers of the ETF or fund only when companies are added or dropped from the index.\nThe lower the cost to manage the index ETF or fund, the better the performance.\nIn addition to providing the broadest possible diversification within the market, Bogle cited the lowest possible cost as a reason for the success of index investing.\nPassive investing costs less than active investing. There are no qualitative decisions for management of an index.\nCap weighting actually reduces transaction costs since rebalancing is not necessary to maintain the weighting. An equal weighted index requires constant rebalancing (and therefore, costs).\nCosts, like gains and losses, compound and affect performance.\nThe following Portfolio123 chart illustrates the performance of VTI, the Vanguard ETF, from its inception May 1, 2001 through December 31, 2017 using IWV, a Russell 3000 ETF as a benchmark. Dividends are included in both VTI and IWV performance.\nVTI tracks all the market, not just the 3000 stocks in the Russell benchmark.\nBogle's conclusion\nBuy the market.\nThe good news is that passive participation as an index investor requires very little effort, only a broker - no portfolio manager or stock screening tools.\nAnd, you will get market matching performance.\nThe bad news? Depending on your personal circumstances, the only available option may be a fund with a high expense ratio. This happens in some 401(k) plans. Not good, since the extra expenses come out of your pocket.\nThe loss of equity has been over 80% on one occasion during those 106 years (although not mentioned in the Bogle book).\nAs you can see in the chart above, there was a drawdown of 54% in 2008. Not shown is a drawdown of 45% in the earlier bear market.\nMarket Climate Matters\nEven an equity loss of 45% is significant.\nMany index investing discussions either fail to mention the drawdowns or else provide assurance that the market will recover (OOPS, the NIKKEI never has fully recovered).\nIf it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck, it is probably a duck.\nIf the market climate is not favorable (like in a recession or a bear market), why are you in the market?\nMaybe because you are repeatedly told you cannot identify bad times. Or even that it is impossible to identify bad times.\nConsider the S&P 500 monthly chart below (FreeStockCharts)\nNotice that when the 18 month CCI is below zero AND the index is below its 12 month SMA, things are not going well for the S&P 500.\nMaybe it would be better to step aside during these conditions.\nTo illustrate the effect of stepping aside when things are not going well, consider the Sector Surfer approach. Their proprietary algorithm identifies which (of up to 12 ETFs or stocks) is the current best bet.\nSuppose you only choose 1 ETF?\nThe following chart illustrates a backtest of choosing only VTI when the market is favorable (by Sector Surfer standards) or going to cash. There are more trades implied than in the CCI/SMA method illustrated above. But, don't rely on just technical analysis (it only looks like a duck).\nNote that the backtest begins on 5/31/01.\nNote also the under-performance in a strong uptrend - a common flaw in market timing.\nIf you decide to examine Sector Surfer (you can try for free), the VTI/Cash Strategy ID is 636545291435727857-6383-44-238789 and can be pasted into a strategy in the sandbox.\nIs this a dilemma?\nMarket Timing, even at the Market Climate level, is often considered heresy among proponents of index investing. The view is that attempts at timing degrade performance.\nFor sure, there is no guarantee that a timing system will work correctly in the future even if it has been shown effective in the past. And with market timing, unless whipsaws can be avoided, there will be under-performance in strong uptrends.\nOn the other hand, there is no guarantee that the index will perform the same in the future even if it has a known performance in the past.\nFinancial advisors may be limited in their response to Market Climate due to the magnitude of the investments they manage. Most retail investors do not have that limitation.\nEliminating whipsaws\nIncorporating timing in your investing is your call. But if you incorporate timing, you should consider a holistic approach to evaluating market climate. An approach intended to eliminate whipsaws.\nIdentifying Market Climate\nLooking at the CCI indicator in the chart, it is clear that it went below zero at major drawdowns in the index. But it also went below zero on market corrections in 2011 and again in 2015 and 2016. These later events would create whipsaws in your investing - exactly the fault critics of market timing cite.\nBut instead of relying solely on technical analysis of the market, economic indicators and fundamentals can confirm or refute the technical indication.\nOne approach is the use of earnings estimates for an index. On a weekly basis, Portfolio123 calculates the cap weighted earnings of the S&P 500. This is an effective addition to composite timing. The use of cap weighted earnings is discussed here.\nAnother approach is the effect of PE on the market. Crestmont Research has a lot of material on the topic.\nThere is a mountain of economic data at the St. Louis Federal Reserve (FRED). Data is available in a variety of graphical representations and is associated on the resulting charts with the onset of recessions as shown on the following chart (link):\nThis chart (which you can edit to get alternate views of the data) or one of the dozens of other data points offer some hope of confirmation of your technical signal.\nConfirmation is critical to identifying the market climate and eliminating whipsaws.\nAction appropriate to Market Climate\nUsing a combination of technical analysis indicators and economic indicators from the St Louis Fed, the following dates were identified as unfavorable with respect to market climate:\nDecember 1, 2000 through April 30, 2003\nFebruary 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009\nNotice that the 2011, 2015 and 2016 technical indicators were not confirmed by the economic indicators.\nOne option is simply to go to cash during unfavorable conditions.\nA second option is to use an ETF or mutual fund to invest in bonds. In other words, index investing in a different asset class. A class that may not suffer from the unfavorable climate.\nThe results would have been as follows:\nThis compares favorably with the 6.84% un-timed performance of VTI from 1/1/99 through 12/31/17 in a Portfolio123 backtest. NOTE: For this comparison, VTI was simulated from 1/1/99 through 5/1/01.\nIndex investing is a valid choice. But not the only choice.\nThe American Association of Individual Investors has published a list of models and forward tested their performance since 1998. Thats \"forward tested\", not \"back tested\".\nThe majority of those models out-perform major market indices. Some of them are not really feasible as is, but many are.\nTo test the idea, on May 20, 2016 I opened a folio dedicated to the Dreman with EPS Revisions model. The only change I made was to exclude MLPs.\nThe performance chart from my FolioInvesting account is below:\nSo, it is possible to out-perform with a consistent approach and proven models. Not every day of every month, but over time.\nNEXT: Index Investing Variations\nBy way of disclosure:\na portion of my stock market investment is index investing.\nI do rely on identifying changes in market climate to avoid severe drawdowns.",

        "raw_content": "Home Tags Posts tagged with \"Lenses\"\nUsing a 35mm Lens for Street Photography\nWe all like to chop and change our lens selections from time to time. One of the things I have discovered as I have practiced street photography more and more is that a prime lens is perfect for street photography. There are several reasons for this, but that\u2019s a story for another time. But once you\u2019ve decided that you prefer prime lenses over zoom lenses for street photography a problem presents itself. Which focal length should you choose? After all, you can\u2019t simply switch focal lengths as you would with a zoom lens. You may remember a while back I wrote about my experiences using a 50mm lens for street photography. I\u2019ve also talked about why I currently feel that the 28mm is the perfect street photography lens. This time round I\u2019ve decided to focus on the photojournalist\u2019s holy grail \u2013 the 35mm lens. So read on for my pros and cons of using a 35mm lens for street photography!\n28mm \u2013 The Perfect Lens for Street Photography?\nRegular readers of Street Hunters will probably have seen several of our past posts about the different lenses you can use for street photography. We\u2019ve discussed the various merits of telephoto lenses for street photography, wide lenses, and 50mm lenses. Choosing the best lens for your street photography is an agonising decision, because they all have their strengths, weaknesses and compromises. Some photographers will chop and change their lenses and focal lengths a lot, others will pick one focal length and stick to it, while others will go through \u2018phases\u2019 of shooting one focal length for a while, then another, and so on. Having done my fair share of lens roaming myself, I am starting to wonder if I\u2019ve finally found a lens that is perfect for my street photography, and that lens is around the equivalent to 28mm focal length on \u2018full frame\u2019. Why? Read on for more\u2026\nMost photographers (myself included) will often go through a period when they worry about their choice of gear. Both the blessing and the curse of getting more into photography and learning about camera equipment is that you realise how good some specialised equipment is for some types of photography, and how bad it is for others. Someone in search of wide landscape shots isn\u2019t going to get on very well with a 300mm lens for instance, and a wide angle lens is far from ideal if you want to take photos of birds in flight. These examples are obviously more extreme, but it\u2019s surprising the nuanced differences that you\u2019ll find over just a small change in focal length, especially in a genre as demanding as street photography. 26mm, 22mm, 15mm or 10mm of difference in \u2018reach\u2019 or wideness between lenses can make all the difference between getting a shot or missing one. With this in mind, and having shot street photography extensively with a mix of focal lengths from 16mm to 50mm, I\u2019d like to offer my thoughts on using a 50mm lens for street photography.\nThe Pros and Cons of Wide Angle lenses for Street Photography\nNOTE: This is a subject that I feel I don\u2019t have the really professional technical knowledge for, so everything I write in this post is from personal experience. If something is inaccurate, please correct me! You are most welcome to do so!\nA Street Photographer has many camera lens options for when shooting. A Street Photographer can use a camera equipped with a zoom lens, or a prime lens. Zoom lenses provide Street Hunters with focal length flexibility but are usually bigger and not as sharp or as fast as prime lenses. So, naturally primes are widely used in Street Photography, without that being the rule of course. When someone uses primes they automatically have a lighter and smaller kit to carry around, compared to another Photographer who uses a big zoom lens which gives them some advantages in movement and stealth.\nThere are many different types of Prime lenses. There are ultra wide lenses, wide lenses, normal lenses, classic portrait lenses, telephoto lenses and ultra telephoto lenses. Today, we will talk about the wide angle lenses and discuss their pros and cons in Street Photography.",

The rest of the message is in our voice and other non-verbal communication.\n~ We delete, distort, and generalize information going from our own internal thoughts to what we actually say.\n~ We project onto other people things about ourselves, good and bad, as they do on us\nDr David Fraser has a track record of pioneering new approaches to old problems.

        "raw_content": "Suffolk Chamber lobbies Roads Minister for A14 improvements\nSuffolk Chamber took full opportunity of a meeting on 27 June with the Roads Minister for the Department for Transport to press the local and national case for improvements to the A14 in Suffolk.\nChief executive John Dugmore and Nick Burfield, policy director, joined Bury St Edmunds MP Jo Churchill in meeting with Jesse Norman MP in his House of Commons office.\n\u201cThe No More A14 Delays in Suffolk campaign is one of our most important current strategic lobbying initiatives and we wanted to emphasise the importance of the highway not only to local businesses, but as the arterial route for goods passing through Felixstowe to and from the Northern Powerhouse and Midlands Engine.\u201d explained John.\n\u201cI think the Minister got the message about the A14 in Suffolk and we were encouraged by his level of interest and the responses he gave.\u201d\nJo Churchill MP added \"the meeting was a constructive discussion about the importance of the A14 including, for my constituents, around Junction 43 and 44 of Bury St Edmunds.\n\u201cIt is vital we continue to push for improvements to this stretch of national strategic infrastructure.\"\nHighways England, the government-owned company with responsibility for the operation, maintenance and improvement of the motorways and trunk roads in England, issued its Strategic Road Network Initial Report late last year.\nWithin it, the A14 in Suffolk is marked as a \u2018current, planned and potential expressway\u2019. Expressways are motorway-grade two-lane highways and their designation requires that all junctions off and onto them are enhanced.\nThe report outlines the phased process in upgrading a highway into an expressway, including improvements to junctions with other roads \u2013 the key demand of the Suffolk Chamber-led campaign which is calling for significant investment at seven pinch points.\nSuffolk Chamber and its partners submitted their support for these proposals during the consultation by the Department for Transport (DfT) into this report at the beginning of the year.\nThe DfT is due to announce the successful schemes within the next year, with work expected to begin on these between 2020 and 2025.\nBidding in Suffolk for public sector contracts\nBusinesses can also access the survey via this link.\nSuffolk Chamber supports Eastern Institute of Technology proposal\nA collective proposal by colleges, universities and businesses to establish one of the Government\u2019s Institutes of Technology in the East has taken a step forward, becoming one of just 16 national projects to move into the second stage of bidding.\nThe bid to create an Eastern Institute of Technology (EIoT), led by West Suffolk College and New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership in collaboration with various partners, is a response from local businesses and colleges to identified skills shortages.\nAcross Norfolk and Suffolk, some 32,000 businesses employ 325,000 people in energy, ICT and digital, advanced manufacturing, agri-tech and construction. Those businesses all need highly-skilled staff to grow and sustain their futures, but research shows that more needs to be done to ensure they have the employees they need into the future.\nThe Eastern Institute of Technology (EIoT) will focus on those key growth sectors, offering specialist training, access to the latest equipment, technology and to workplace learning.\nIn addition to developing the skills which businesses need, the EIoT will help to raise levels of aspiration and attainment right across the region, as well as specifically encouraging woman into engineering. The EIoT bid is presented under the shared vision of \u2018equality of opportunity regardless of where you live\u2019.\nThe five colleges working in partnership to develop the bid are West Suffolk College, Suffolk New College, Easton and Otley College, College of West Anglia and East Coast College. The Eastern Institute of Technology would operate from those sites, capitalising on the foundations laid through recent and planned investments in infrastructure and innovative provision, including \u00a310million in a specialist training facility for the energy sector at East Coast College, \u00a36.5million as well as the great facilities at Suffolk New College, Easton and Otley College and at bases within universities and sixth form centres.\nThe Universities supporting the proposal include the University of East Anglia and the University of Suffolk.\nDr Nikos Savvas, CEO of Suffolk Academy Trust and Principal of West Suffolk College said \u201cIt is great honour and testimony to our collective vision to have got through to the next stage. Our proposal for an Institute of Technology for our region will play a key role in meeting employer needs, supplying the highly skilled technical workforce and graduates critical to support growth in ICT, Digital, Energy, Engineering and Agri-tech sectors. This bid offers the most exciting and significant opportunity to establish The East as a global centre of technology, engineering and science excellence.\n\u201cIf successful, the hub and spoke model will see EIoT provision delivered at five leading FE colleges across the region and will ensure that it will serve an economy and all communities that span across Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire. This is an incredibly powerful example of the East strategically coming together as one for the greater good.\u201d\nSuffolk Chamber\u2019s letter of support can be viewed here.\nBritish Chambers of Commerce recess challenge to MPs\nBritish Chambers of Commerce (BCC) have written in candid terms to MPs, as they begin their recess, urging them to redouble their efforts to listen to businesses in their constituencies and address the practical, real-world questions businesses are facing at a time of unprecedented uncertainty and change.\nBCC make the case that businesses urgently need to know, for example, who they\u2019ll be able to hire in future, how they\u2019ll pay VAT, whether their goods will be stopped at borders, and whether the contracts they enter into will be enforceable. Businesses need clarity, precision and reassurance and the longer they wait to understand what the future UK-EU relationship, the bigger the hit to near-term investment, expansion and confidence.\nThe letter highlights that the BCC Business Brexit Risk Register identifies 22 of the 24 top real-world issues facing businesses as \u2018red\u2019 with only two at \u2018amber\u2019 reflecting limited progress.\nBCC research is also highlighted showing we\u2019re currently in the midst of a mass labour shortage, as firms struggle to find the people they need, and concerns are expressed about the cost of doing business as firms face inflation and wage pressures compounded by poor digital and mobile connectivity, congestion, and ever-higher up-front taxes and costs.\nThe full BCC letter can be viewed here.\nGovernment review of Local Enterprise Partnerships\nNew proposals for Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) to supercharge economic growth and drive forward investment in local businesses across the country have been put forward by ministers.\nThe publication of the \u2018Strengthened Local Enterprise Partnerships\u2019 review sees government delivering on its promise in the Industrial Strategy white paper to bring forward reforms to the leadership, governance and accountability of the 38 LEPs charged with kick-starting economic growth and creating jobs in their regions.\nThe review proposes a number of changes to boost the performance of LEPs, increase their diversity and ensure they\u2019re operating in an open and transparent way. These include:\nup to \u00a320 million of additional funding between 2018 to 2019 and 2019 to 2020 to support the implementation of these changes and embed evidence in Local Industrial Strategies\nsupporting LEPs to consult widely and transparently on appointing new Chairs and improve board diversity\na requirement for women to make up at least one third of LEP boards by 2020 with the expectation of equal representation by 2023\na mandate for LEPs to submit proposals for revised geographies including removing situations in which 2 LEP geographies overlap\nThe Communities Secretary, Rt. Hon James Brokenshire MP, said:\n\u201cThis publication of the Strengthened Local Enterprise Partnerships policy represents a step change in approach for LEPs. We will continue our work to strengthen these leading institutions to develop ambitious strategies for growth and build an economy which is fit for the future.\u201d\nLocal Growth Minister, Jake Berry MP, said:\n\u201cWe\u2019ve committed over \u00a39 billion to help LEPs through 3 rounds of Growth Deals to deliver on their investment priorities, while creating new and exciting economic opportunities for local businesses and communities across the country.\n\u201cThis landmark shake-up of our local enterprise partnerships will help us deliver on our pledge to deliver over \u00a312 billion through the Local Growth Fund by 2021 while allowing LEPs to use their local knowledge to deliver inclusive growth.\u201d\nDoug Field, Chair of New Anglia LEP, welcomed the recommendations in the Review. He said:\n\u201cIt will allow us to build on our strengths as a business-led, local organisation. It recognises and strengthens our role in setting the strategic economic priorities for our place, convening local partners to deliver projects at pace, generating private sector investment, pitching for government funds and helping local businesses to start and grow.\n\u201cEarlier this year, we were rated by government as exceptional in a deep dive of LEPs and we are committed to continuing to reach and exceed the high standards which we set for ourselves around transparency of decision making and programme delivery.\u201d\nShared Prosperity Fund\nThe British Chambers of Commerce have written to James Brokenshire MP, Secretary of State at DHCLG, on the need for clarity on the transition to the UK Shared Prosperity Fund from the European Structural Investment Funds and how it will operate in a devolved nation context.\nBritish Chambers of Commerce: business alarm on potential Brexit VAT bombshell\nCommenting on the passage of amendments to the Customs Bill, which commit the government to fully separating the UK from the EU VAT regime, Adam Marshall, Director General of the British Chambers of Commerce, said:\n\u201cThis is the first view businesses have on what the VAT regime could be like after Brexit \u2013 and it doesn\u2019t look pretty.\n\u201cA separate UK VAT system will create significant on-going costs for businesses trading across borders, unless special work-arounds are put in place. This change will pile pressure on Her Majesty\u2019s Revenue and Customs, which is already contending with other facets of Brexit, plus the delivery of a new customs system and Making Tax Digital.\n\u201cFirms need to know \u2013 now, not in a year\u2019s time \u2013 whether and how the government intends to address the potential VAT bombshell facing businesses trading with the EU27 in future. Without a more generous deferment account scheme or postponed accounting, many companies face severe cash flow issues, big new administrative headaches, and a serious loss of competitiveness.\u201d\nUnder the current system, firms trading with the EU report every quarter on what they have imported and exported, with a VAT bill calculated after. Without clear facilitations, the risk facing business is the need to pay VAT at the point of each cross-border transaction, creating a significant cash flow and competitiveness problem for many.\nIn the BCC\u2019s Risk Register, questions around Import VAT and Services VAT remain at a red rating.\nLEADER Grants Deadline Fast Approaching\nLEADER, a DEFRA / EU funded programme, supports prospective rural business start-ups and small businesses. It aims to support a range of businesses that have identified a need for capital investments, such as buildings or equipment to grow their business.\nThe last opportunity to submit a first stage grant application is early autumn 2018, click the link below to find out more.\nBritish Chambers of Commerce: Cut tax complexity and \u2018red tape\u2019 holding back businesses\nThe vast majority of UK businesses believe the cost of complying with the UK tax system has escalated over recent years, according to new research released by the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC).\nA survey by the BCC of over 1,100 firms from across the UK found that three in four (75%) believe the overall burden of tax administration and compliance \u2013 the HMRC equivalent of \u2018red tape\u2019 \u2013 has increased compared to five years ago.\nThe escalating time and resources necessary to comply with the UK\u2019s tax system reflects the need for action from government ministers and HMRC to reverse the burden and complexity of administration, and for more support from HMRC for firms trying to stay compliant.\nThe results of the survey show that two-thirds (64%) of businesses say that VAT creates the biggest administration and compliance burden, a finding mirrored in the responses of firms of all sizes and sectors. Businesses continue to report confusion over the vast array of rules and rates, suggesting that ministers\u2019 focus should be on reducing the complexity of VAT administration to help boost firms\u2019 growth \u2013 rather than tinkering with the VAT threshold.\nOn top of that, businesses are facing further demands on their time and money to be ready for the introduction of the government\u2019s Making Tax Digital project, which the BCC has called upon ministers to delay until the start of the 2020/21 financial year*. At the same time, companies remain unclear about how the VAT system will function when the UK leaves the EU.\nAccording to the research, PAYE/National Insurance Contributions (54%) and Corporation Tax (41%) were identified as the next biggest sources of compliance burdens after VAT. For many businesses, calculating National Insurance Contributions remains overly complex, with firms facing significant confusion about the thresholds and rates they are required to pay.\nWhile the BCC continues to support the government\u2019s attempts to tackle the aggressive tax avoidance by a small minority of firms, the research shows that there is also a real need to lower compliance costs, transaction costs, and complexity of tax for business. The BCC therefore calls for investment in HMRC\u2019s work on tax evasion to be matched by investment in support for businesses to make compliance easier and improving the processes for collecting tax. There should also be greater independent oversight of all new tax proposals to assess the potential administrative burdens on SMEs.\nAdam Marshall, Director General of the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC), said:\n\u201cCompanies now routinely cite tax administration and compliance, rather than regulation, as their biggest single source of administrative headaches.\n\u201cIf the government wants its \u2018Global Britain\u2019 vision to become a reality, it is time to tackle the huge costs and complexities of the UK tax system, which sap away time and resources that could be better spent raising business productivity and growth.\n\u201cHMRC must be given both resources and a clear remit to focus more on supporting, rather than pursuing and punishing, small and medium-sized firms, as they work to get tax right. We want to see more investment in frontline HMRC support that\u2019s geared towards making compliance easier for SMEs. There should also be greater independent scrutiny of new tax proposals with the aim of minimising the administrative burden on business. Making tax administration simpler would provide businesses with more time and headroom to focus on investment and growth.\u201d\nAutomatic enrolment is an ongoing process \u2013 it does not end with your declaration of compliance\nEmployers across the UK suspected of providing false or misleading information to The Pensions Regulator (TPR) about how they are meeting their automatic enrolment duties, will now be targeted with short notice inspections.\nThe latest round of spot checks, due to start later this month, will also target employers who are still non-compliant with their automatic enrolment duties despite penalty action. The inspections will be carried out across the country including Essex, Kent, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire.\nTPR\u2019s Director of Automatic Enrolment, Darren Ryder, said: \u201cIt is an offence for employers to provide TPR with false information on their declaration of compliance, but there are tell-tale signs indicating an employer might not be telling the truth. We can also detect employers who are failing to meet their automatic enrolment duties despite being issued with a penalty and we will take action if we suspect either of these is the case.\nThe short notice inspections are to detect non-compliance and also to gain insight into employer behaviour. Insight from these spot checks will be included in The Pension Regulator\u2019s annual Automatic Enrolment Commentary and Analysis report to be published this summer.\nMake sure you know what you need to do to meet your ongoing duties and that your records are up to date. TPR has online information and guidance about ongoing duties to help you understand what needs to be done.\nPost Office Banking Network\nThe Post Office is working with the banking industry to increase awareness of the services they offer, looking to support citizens with specific needs and incorporating the Post Office as an integral channel for customers to access their banking alongside an extensive range of postal services. This work has caught our attention as they are providing essential banking services that are important for Chamber members and the wider business community.\nThe Post Office Banking Framework ensures that customers of 28 high street banks can carry out everyday transactions at all 11,500 Post Office branches across the country. They expect significant growth in this area in 2018, as they simplify, standardise and broaden their banking services.\nFor more information about the work of the Post Office, please see their blog here. The Post Office is uniquely positioned to provide commercial support, particularly to small- and medium-sized businesses, therefore we would appreciate it if you could share this amongst your members to broaden their understanding of the benefits their local Post Office offers.\nGovernment launches \u00a34.2 million Challenge Fund\nThe Government\u2019s Work and Health Unit, a joint unit funded by the Department for Work and Pensions and Department of Health and Social Care, has launched the Challenge Fund, a new time-limited source of funding aimed at testing new or promising approaches to helping people experiencing mental health or musculoskeletal (MSK) issues to stay in work. They might be at risk of losing their job because of sickness or may be already off work through ill health.\nThe Fund is squarely aimed at encouraging innovation and ideas with an emerging evidence base. To that end, the Unit is looking to fund small to medium scale initiatives, with \u00a34.2 million available. Applications are welcome from organisations in any sector, including employers, charities, social enterprises, local authorities, health bodies and others, with applications from smaller organisations particularly welcome. The deadline for applications is Friday 17 August. For more information, visit the website.\nThe latest British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) podcast is now live. In it BCC cover the fallout from the Brexit amendments to the Customs Bill, the impact of those amendments on VAT for business, and interest rates. In the second half Jane Gratton interviews Andy Briggs, CEO of Aviva UK, on how to get the most out of an older workforce.\nYou can view the podcast here and can subscribe via iTunes or Audioboom.\nApprenticeships I \u2013 good practice\nWith exam results season drawing nearer thousands of young people, influenced by their parents, will be making important decisions about their future. It\u2019s vital that they\u2019re aware of the opportunities that an apprenticeship can provide, to help them make an informed decision about their next step.\nOver the summer the Department for Education (DfE) will be working on a series of communications activities to raise awareness of apprenticeships. DfE are already working with the likes of NHS Blood and Transplant, Walsall Council, JCB, Berthon Boats and Superior Seals, and are looking for more employers to help with this.\nThey are looking for employers that:\nHave live apprenticeship vacancies in August (for students aged 16-18)\nHave made apprenticeship offers to students who will be getting their exam results this August\nEmploy apprentices who have recently left school or college, and that have achieved something exceptional that may be of interest to media.\nSome examples of great case studies they\u2019ve worked with on include:\nA successful fashion apprentice who dropped out of a pharmaceutical degree and is now a major designer at a Paris fashion house \u2013 and who has designed clothes for Beyonce\nAn apprentice who became the youngest women in the country to qualify as a train operator\nAn apprentice that has become a homeowner at 23 with responsibility for managing a \u00a31million+ project\nAn apprentice who has discovered a new Augmented Reality algorithm \u2013 an \u2018industry first\u2019\nAn apprentice who successfully overcame a battle with addiction to start training as a plumber\nIf you fit the bill, please get in touch with Milly Pearson at Munro & Forster Communications milly.pearson@munroforster.com to find out how you can get involved.\nApprenticeships II - Levy\nThe British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) are in regular dialogue with the Education Secretary, Apprenticeship Minister, BEIS and the DfE Special Adviser over the need to reform the Apprenticeship Levy. BCC have suggested ways in which the rules around access to the Levy funds can be improved to help businesses train more apprentices.

        "raw_content": "Howard Matthew Peetz\nHoward, son of Michael P. and Anna Elizabeth (Lingwall) Peetz, was born in Sidney at the Roche Hospital March 2, 1929. He attended St. Patrick's schools, graduating from St. Patrick's Catholic High School May 23, 1946. His early years included 12 years of piano schooling, 11 years of music theory training and 11 years of playing the trumpet. His first formal job began June the 1st 1946 where Howard, at the age of 16, signed a contract with Claude Thornhill at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York. He earned $4.00/hr. for 4 hours of play each night and $3.00/hr. for 3 hours of practice each day. The contract ended Sept. 1st of 1946 and started a diverse career.\nOn his return to Sidney via Union Pacific passenger train, he was unable to find a job so he moved to Green River, Wyo. where he lived with a cousin, Catherine Hoff. There he worked as a rodman for Western Geophysical exploring for oil. He returned home to Sidney in March, 1948 and again unable to find a job, enlisted in the Army Air Corps out of North Platte, Nebraska on April 6, 1948. He spent 13 weeks in basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas and 26 weeks training as a photographer at Lowry Air Force Base in Colorado. As a first assignment he was shipped to Anchorage, Alaska on the General Patrick out of San Francisco where he spent 3 years. He was honorably discharged on April 6, 1952.\nHoward worked as a switchman on the Union Pacific Railroad in Sidney, Nebraska for 2 years then moved to Scottsbluff, Nebraska where he sold insurance for Mutual of Omaha for 5 years. After a move to Pocatello, Idaho he continued to sell insurance for Banker's Life and Casualty and traded sheep in his spare time. This turned into a full-time job with a band of 12,000 ewes by 1968. He later sold this business to Jack Simplot and made another move to Denver, Colorado where he began a prolific lumber business supplying Joy Manufacturing with crating lumber for 25 years. This initiated a real estate business and the development of Launch Pad Estates in Peyton, Colorado. In 2000, he returned to the insurance business as a general agent for various agencies and this continued through 2012.\nHe was married to Darlene May Engleman on September 16, 1950 and they were married for 62 years and raised 3 children: Michael Patrick Peetz, Jodene Ann Peetz, and William Howard Peetz.\nHoward is preceded in death by his daughter Jodene, and his wife Darlene. Howard joined his loving wife on March 2, 2014.\nA visitation will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday at the Shrine of Remembrance Funeral Home. A Rosary service will take place at 7 p.m. in the chapel. A Mass of Christian Burial will be said at 1:30 p.m. on Sat., March 8, 2014 at St. Dominic Catholic Church, 5354 South Highway 85/87, Security, Colorado.

The second disc contains historic recordings of St. Paisios chanting at various festal celebrations.\n(Note: All hymns are chanted in Greek)\nSt. Paisios the Athonite, a new saint of our Church, is undoubtedly a gift from God to mankind during these difficult times. The holiness of his life, the multitude of the miracles he performed during his lifetime and continues to work after his repose, and above all his noble love for all people have contributed to his becoming one of the most well-known and beloved Saints of our day.\nThe second disc contains recordings of the Saint himself chanting. Although he was not schooled in the theory of byzantine music, nevertheless, he understood music. He used to chant sweetly\u2014his whole body trembling\u2014with sincere reverence. It was an outpouring of his heart, a hymn of his pure love for Christ, the Panagia, and the angels.\n\u2026We pray that these two discs will bring the listener closer to St. Paisios, and in this way, kindle love and honor for him within their hearts.

Here the focus is on the development of measure and integration theory, differentiation and integration, Hilbert spaces, and Hausdorff measure and fractals. This book reflects the objective of the series as a whole: to make plain the organic unity that exists between the various parts of the subject, and to illustrate the wide applicability of ideas of analysis to other fields of mathematics and science.\nAfter setting forth the basic facts of measure theory, Lebesgue integration, and differentiation on Euclidian spaces, the authors move to the elements of Hilbert space, via the L2 theory. They next present basic illustrations of these concepts from Fourier analysis, partial differential equations, and complex analysis. The final part of the book introduces the reader to the fascinating subject of fractional-dimensional sets, including Hausdorff measure, self-replicating sets, space-filling curves, and Besicovitch sets. Each chapter has a series of exercises, from the relatively easy to the more complex, that are tied directly to the text. A substantial number of hints encourage the reader to take on even the more challenging exercises.\nAs with the other volumes in the series, Real Analysis is accessible to students interested in such diverse disciplines as mathematics, physics, engineering, and finance, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.\nAlso available, the first two volumes in the Princeton Lectures in Analysis:",

If one or more minor klar wander away from the body, the person may become sick, Klar are known to be quite fickle and some simple love to roam, which can result in the soul being unable to return to the body, because it gets lost or is caught by evil spirits.\nIt is also believed that if the major klar wanders away the person may become crazy. In either case to call the Klar back to the body a traditional healer will conduct a \u2018Phook Khaen Riak Kwan Ceremony\u2019, where the wandering klar is lured back with incantations, gifts of fruit, cooked rice and betel nut. After the ceremony, a red string is tied around the wrist of an adult, or the neck of a small child, to prevent the klar wandering away again, (it is said that if all thirty-seven klar leave, a person they will die).\nTying White String around the Wrist\nThe Khao Ho or Ang Mi Thong Festival has its roots in the ceremony known as Baci (Lao: \u0e9a\u0eb2\u0eaa\u0eb5; Thai: \u0e1a\u0e32\u0e22\u0e28\u0e23\u0e35-bai si) and su kwan (Lao: \u0eaa\u0eb9\u0ec8\u0e82\u0ea7\u0eb1\u0e99; Thai: \u0e2a\u0e39\u0e48\u0e02\u0e27\u0e31\u0e0d), meaning \u201ccalling of the soul\u201d.\n\u2018Baci\u2019 is an important ceremony practiced in Lao culture plus Northern and Isan Thai culture, and is considered aphi ritual (\u201creligion of the Gods\u201d), it is used to celebrate any number of important events and occasions, such as births and marriages, entering the monk-hood, departing or returning home, beginning a new year etc.\nThe ritual of the baci also involves tying strings around a person\u2019s wrist, (normally white in colour) to preserve good luck, and can be seen almost everywhere in the Kingdom of Thailand.\nFood at the event\nAnother difference in this local Karen festival is in the food that is offered, in this ceremony, people cook \u201ckhao ho\u201d which is sticky rice molded and wrapped into a cone shape, which they then steam similar to khanom chan. The Khao Ho, once cooked is dipped in either honey or coconut.\nThe day is also the chance for guests and visitors to immerse themselves in Karen culture, with numerous performances in folk music and dance. There are also demonstrations in the traditional Karen pastimes; a race with a basket on ones back, an oily pole climbing competition, the game of tossing Saba seeds, plus of course your chance to try more traditional local delicacies such as Kaw Naw and see many local handicrafts.\nWhile this festival is a uniquely Ratchaburi event, it is your chance to witness first hand some of the traditions of these ancient people, who like most of the Hill Tribes of Thailand were persecuted and driven from their home lands to eventually seek sanctuary in the Kingdom of Thailand\nFor more on the Karen people click here\nNot to be confused with the other festivals around the kingdom held to appease the ghosts that will walk once more among the living, they are The Festival of the Tenth Lunar Month, which is mainly a southern festival, the biggest held in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Southern Thailand. The Por Tor Festival or \u2018Hungry Ghost Festival\u2019, that is held annually across southern Thailand. The Tiggkrahad ritual is also is similar to the purely Thai event; Festival of Offerings to the Dead (Sart Day) \u0e27\u0e31\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e32\u0e17\u0e23\u0e44\u0e17\u0e22, which is held all over the Kingdom and the purely Mon festival, The Mon Floating Boat Festival, which is held in September in the same district.\nPlease Pick A Star Rating Below\nThailand Info Khao Ho or Ang Mi Thong Festival 2016-08-07T02:41:29+00:00 2016-08-07T04:35:10+00:00 Richard",

        "raw_content": "Halifax painter Dusan Kadlec was one of the world's top marine artists\nElissa Barnard\nHarbourfront Sunset, one of many images of a historical Halifax Harbour painted by Dusan Kadlec who fell in love with the city after he left Czechoslovakia in 1968. - Contributed\nThe late Halifax artist Dusan Kadlec is irreplacable as a painter of ports, ships and historical detail, says his American dealer.\n\u201cHe was in my opinion one of the top two living marine artists in the world. The other would be John Stobart,\u201d says Peter Kiernan, director of the 50-year-old Marine Arts Gallery in Marblehead, Mass.\nKiernan has sold Kadlec's paintings and prints to collectors around the world for 35 years, and exclusively for the last 15. \u201cHe was just a great talent beyond belief.\u201d\nKadlec, who died Sept. 12 in Halifax, was a stickler for accuracy \u2014 \u201cevery brick,\u201d says Kiernan \u2014 but also liked to include familiar images like his two dogs, one black pitbull, one yellow lab.\nOne of his best-known Canadian paintings, Province Hall Ball 1864, at the Confederation Centre in Charlottetown, includes the face of his wife Marika and his daughter Anna among the bejewelled women in fancy ball dresses, as well as many of his close friends.\nAlready a master\nDusan Kadlec in front of one of his paintings.\nBorn in Prague, Czechoslovakia (Czech Republic), on Dec. 21, 1942, Kadlec received a masters degree in 1967 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. He first came to Canada to design Man and His World, the Czech pavilion at the 1967 World Expo in Montreal.\nKadlec and his wife fled Czechoslovakia with their two young children when the Soviet Union invaded during the Prague Spring revolution of 1968. They arrived at Pier 21.\n\u201cHe fell in love with Halifax and they decided to stay here and make their life here,\u201d says Rachel Kadlec, who is married to the artist's son Andrew.\nWithin two weeks Kadlec had his first commission for a portrait. Fascinated by Halifax\u2019s port and its historic architecture he started recreating maritime history on canvas, which became his life's work.\nHis European academic training led him to paint in the style of the great European masters who embodied 19th century Romantic Classicism.\nHis popular Nova Scotian images include the Prince\u2019s Lodge in Bedford, the CN (now VIA) train station and Market Day at Cheapside. He painted many tall ships and every church in Halifax. Nimbus published Inspired Halifax: The Art of Dusan Kadlec in 2003.\nMild bridge obsession\nKadlec had a fascination for the Brooklyn Bridge which he painted many times, including in this oil painting, Brooklyn Bridge by Moonlight.\nKadlec branched out to paint American and other international ports and had a particular fondness for New York City's harbour, says Kiernan.\n\u201cSo many people came through New York and it was rich with history and most of his paintings would include people on the dock, horses and the two dogs. You could see the mud, the water in the streets.\n\u201cHe just finished a major painting of New York Harbor with the Brooklyn Bridge for a major collector in Virginia.\u201d\nKadlec\u2019s skies were full of life, \u201cdark skies or the clearing of a storm,\u201d says Kiernan. \u201cHe put a lot of emotion into the sky.\n\u201cHe is known for his sky and his water but mostly his detail,\u201d he adds. \u201cA large painting you could cut down into small sections and still have a wonderful painting. Each section tells a story.\n\u201cAnybody can look at a Dusan Kadlec and see history the way it was. He was one of the most important artists working out of Canada in the last 30 years.\u201d\nHe and Kadlec became good friends. \u201cHe had a great sense of humour but he was not an artist who wanted to have people bother him. He was very, very private. He always said he had to sell a painting to get more firewood for the studio. He was happy in his element creating.\u201d\n'To watch him paint was incredible'\nBonsecours Market by Moonlight shows historic Montreal.\nKadlec lived and painted in Purcells Cove. He was a \u201cbrilliant, witty and very generous\u201d individual, says his daughter-in-law. \u201cHe had a passion for family and friends. He loved to cook, especially Eastern European dishes.\u201d\nHe loved animals and would cook for them. \u201cHe would make his cat Islay roasted chicken,\u201d\nRachel Kadlec was inspired by her father-in-law's dedication. \u201cHe had a collection of books and photographs that would rival the Nova Scotia Archives. He had a photographic memory. He could look at an image and recall it forever. He could take a written account and see the image in his head.\n\u201cTo watch him paint was incredible. He would look at a blank canvas and he knew what it was going to look like even before he painted. He had an incredible artistic ability.\u201d\nKadlec\u2019s work is in numerous public, private and corporate collections internationally including the Burrichter/Kierlin Marine Art Collection (on loan to the Minnesota Marine Art Museum). He won the Maritime International Award of Excellence and the Rudolph J. Schaefer Maritime Heritage Award from Mystic Seaport Museum as an artist whose work best documents and preserves America\u2019s maritime heritage. He was an elected member of the Canadian Society of Marine Artists.\nKadlec also leaves his son David, a grandson Gabriel and his sister Eva Marsik living in the Czech Republic. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.\nPier 2 by Moonlight, an oil painting of historic Halifax. Notice the yellow and black dogs he included.

        "title": "Regional connection for airport link: one of two preferred options. | The Courier",
        "raw_content": "An airport rail link through a regional inter-connector at Sunshine would have the major advantage of being a dedicated line, not a suburban addition, making travel time to Tullamarine as little as 15 minutes, experts say. Planners of Melbourne\u2019s proposed airport rail look to have a clear choice between two routes: through Sunshine, or through Highpoint and Maribyrnong. he Sunshine option could also act as an interchange for regional commuters on the Ballarat and Bendigo lines, offering a more direct route to the airport. Trains could reach Melbourne Airport from the CBD in as little as 15 minutes, and get travellers from Geelong to Tullamarine in less than 45 minutes, even after stopping at Sunshine, according to a group of experts. But the Maribyrnong option \u2013 understood to be favoured by the federal government, which owns a large tract of development land along the route \u2013 could link high growth-rate suburbs in the north-west into the city's rail network, offering \"value capture\" that could help offset the project's cost. Value capture is a way of generating revenue from higher property values and other commercial opportunities that would spring from the route of the proposed line. A third option, a spur between the existing Craigieburn Line and the airport, is now considered unlikely because the suburban line is so heavily used that it would have to be duplicated to allow airport services to run with the required regularity. The \u201cAlbion\u201d option, proposed by Public Transport Victoria in 2012, which would run airport-bound trains on the Sunbury line through Tottenham, Footscray and Sunshine, is also now thought to be impractical due to the strain on the Sunbury line following the population boom in the western suburbs. John Hearsch of advocacy group Rail Futures Institute, which has been lobbying for airport rail for years, says he and his colleagues firmly believe the Sunshine option is the better of the two contenders. The rail expert said the Maribrynong route would require more tunnelling than the Sunshine option and was envisaged as a suburban line with several stops that would not allow the speed or frequency of service required for a successful airport link. \u201cIt [Maribrynong] would be part of the suburban system, not a stand-alone railway, so they\u2019d be mixing it with normal suburban passengers, you wouldn\u2019t have a specially dedicated, fitted out train designed for airport passengers,\u201d he said. \u201cThe trip, because of multiple stops, is likely to be slower and the line would suffer all of the day-to-day travails of the suburban system. \u201cIf it\u2019s a suburban service, it won\u2019t be suitable for having connections into the regional network.\u201d Mr Hearsch said Melbourne airport rail via Sunshine could be on par with the Heathrow Express, which gets travellers from central London to the international air-hub in 15 minutes or Hong Kong\u2019s Airport Express which completes the 35 kilometre trip from the city in just 24 minutes. But the Turnbull government, which has offered $5 billion to help fund the long-awaited rail line, says it wants all options thoroughly examined in the early planning process currently under way. Canberra says it is not pushing for any particular route, but that it does want each option to be genuinely considered. It is understood the Prime Minister\u2019s office wants to share equal control with the Andrews state Labor government in return for Commonwealth financial backing, and may ask for the establishment of a joint federal-state authority to build the railway. The Commonwealth is paying most of the $40 million cost of the business case, which is due to be completed in September. It will be trying to ensure the study does not become a rubber-stamp for Victoria\u2019s plan to link airport rail with the regional network in the state\u2019s west, making Sunshine the key junction. The state government wants to run trains directly from Southern Cross to Sunshine and then straight out to the airport. It believes there is an opportunity for an \u201celegant\u201d solution to link Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo and eventually Shepparton into the regional rail network. With Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Premier Daniel Andrews due for a rare face-to-face meeting to discuss the proposed rail line, the preferred route, as well as finance options, look set to be among the key talking points.\nhttps://nnimgt-a.akamaihd.net/transform/v1/crop/frm/xZTdZ6tEPcDnFXvZB8aTeZ/cdfdaaa4-5169-4aab-9863-d6d25f560c8a.JPG/r12_11_4987_2822_w1200_h678_fmax.jpg\nRegional connection for airport link: one of two preferred options.\nAn airport rail link through a regional inter-connector at Sunshine would have the major advantage of being a dedicated line, not a suburban addition, making travel time to Tullamarine as little as 15 minutes, experts say.\nPlanners of Melbourne\u2019s proposed airport rail look to have a clear choice between two routes: through Sunshine, or through Highpoint and Maribyrnong.\nhe Sunshine option could also act as an interchange for regional commuters on the Ballarat and Bendigo lines, offering a more direct route to the airport.\nSunshine station could become a major transport hub linking regional and metropolitan lines.\nTrains could reach Melbourne Airport from the CBD in as little as 15 minutes, and get travellers from Geelong to Tullamarine in less than 45 minutes, even after stopping at Sunshine, according to a group of experts.\nBut the Maribyrnong option \u2013 understood to be favoured by the federal government, which owns a large tract of development land along the route \u2013 could link high growth-rate suburbs in the north-west into the city's rail network, offering \"value capture\" that could help offset the project's cost.\nValue capture is a way of generating revenue from higher property values and other commercial opportunities that would spring from the route of the proposed line.\nA third option, a spur between the existing Craigieburn Line and the airport, is now considered unlikely because the suburban line is so heavily used that it would have to be duplicated to allow airport services to run with the required regularity.\nThe \u201cAlbion\u201d option, proposed by Public Transport Victoria in 2012, which would run airport-bound trains on the Sunbury line through Tottenham, Footscray and Sunshine, is also now thought to be impractical due to the strain on the Sunbury line following the population boom in the western suburbs.\nJohn Hearsch of advocacy group Rail Futures Institute, which has been lobbying for airport rail for years, says he and his colleagues firmly believe the Sunshine option is the better of the two contenders.\nThe rail expert said the Maribrynong route would require more tunnelling than the Sunshine option and was envisaged as a suburban line with several stops that would not allow the speed or frequency of service required for a successful airport link.\n\u201cIt [Maribrynong] would be part of the suburban system, not a stand-alone railway, so they\u2019d be mixing it with normal suburban passengers, you wouldn\u2019t have a specially dedicated, fitted out train designed for airport passengers,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThe trip, because of multiple stops, is likely to be slower and the line would suffer all of the day-to-day travails of the suburban system.\n\u201cIf it\u2019s a suburban service, it won\u2019t be suitable for having connections into the regional network.\u201d\nMr Hearsch said Melbourne airport rail via Sunshine could be on par with the Heathrow Express, which gets travellers from central London to the international air-hub in 15 minutes or Hong Kong\u2019s Airport Express which completes the 35 kilometre trip from the city in just 24 minutes.\nBut the Turnbull government, which has offered $5 billion to help fund the long-awaited rail line, says it wants all options thoroughly examined in the early planning process currently under way.\nCanberra says it is not pushing for any particular route, but that it does want each option to be genuinely considered.\nIt is understood the Prime Minister\u2019s office wants to share equal control with the Andrews state Labor government in return for Commonwealth financial backing, and may ask for the establishment of a joint federal-state authority to build the railway.\nThe Commonwealth is paying most of the $40 million cost of the business case, which is due to be completed in September. It will be trying to ensure the study does not become a rubber-stamp for Victoria\u2019s plan to link airport rail with the regional network in the state\u2019s west, making Sunshine the key junction.\nThe state government wants to run trains directly from Southern Cross to Sunshine and then straight out to the airport. It believes there is an opportunity for an \u201celegant\u201d solution to link Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo and eventually Shepparton into the regional rail network.\nWith Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Premier Daniel Andrews due for a rare face-to-face meeting to discuss the proposed rail line, the preferred route, as well as finance options, look set to be among the key talking points.",

        "raw_content": "My New Year's Resolutions for 2017\nI would like to wish you all Happy New Year! I hope that you all had a wonderful time with family, friends and loved ones during the holidays. 2017 has finally arrived and like every new year, it will bring new challenges in many fields which will allow you to learn and grow even more.\nThis time of the year is filled with moments of celebration, reflections and resolutions- all of which are great for inspiration and making the necessary changes. New Year\u2019s Resolutions embody our heartfelt life-improvement intentions.\nI've decided to keep my New Year's resolutions really simple. So here are my resolutions for 2017.\n1. If you look at the world today, you can see that the gaps between the haves and have-nots are widening. If we don\u2019t all work to share the prosperity we are creating we will drift toward madness. My goal in 2017 is to continue working towards narrowing the financial gap by sharing knowledge and inspiring more women everywhere to use technology to grow their financial knowledge. After all you educate a woman, you educate a village. If 2017 is the year that you decide to finally \u2018sort your finances\u2019 then drop me an email and let me know if there is something specific you would like me to write about. I\u2019m always happy to help, especially when it comes to new years resolutions.\n2. Being a freelancer and blogger has kept me really busy. I have enjoyed every minute of it but I don't want to neglect the simple but immensely important things in life such as self care and family; and to treat others with kindness and patience. I have resolved to simplifying my life. I want quality over quantity and not only in relationships but work too. My strategy for this blog was to welcome anyone from within the financial industry to help women grow their knowledge. Clearly, this was naive. I have become more discriminating about who I let speak to my audience. The result is that my current go to experts are better and the content is interesting and in many cases, inspiring. So I will continue with vetting every article sent to me by PR people and keep the standard high.\n3. My goal for the last 4 years has been to save 30% of all my income towards investing. And any of the dividends or investments cash flow were to be reinvested \u2013 moved into the same account and not be touched for consumption. Basically, I wanted to live on 70% of my income. I\u2019m glad to say that every single month I did this without failing once. In fact, I\u2019ve bumped it to 35% last year just to keep things a bit more challenging and the rewards have been worth it. On top of it, I\u2019ve managed to increase my home loan payment by 15% and to set aside money for a new car. And so I plan to continue living like this until I achieve my goals. What really worked for me is budgeting my monthly expenses, avoiding frivolous spending, and sticking to the plan. While I don't live like a monk, I do think twice before pulling out the bank card or borrowing money.\n4. In the past year I also learned to waste less food. Besides the continuous soaring food prices, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimates that almost 30% to 50% of all the food produced in the world is not eaten . I have pledged to discard as little as possible at home. Nowadays, I put overripe fruit into baked desserts and find other creative ways to use the left over food. I also don\u2019t eat out often. I\u2019ve trimmed our high-cost protein consumption\u2026 and been learning ways to pare down my monthly grocery budget while still making a variety of delicious and healthy meals.\nSo whether you call it a resolution or a plan, it\u2019s easier to reach any goal when you are specific and include details and minor changes that you can commit to long-term. Once these small changes become habit, you\u2019ll gain the confidence to begin working on your more challenging and long-term aspirations.\nHow about you? Do you have any more good financial resolutions for 2017? Send me an email or leave a comment below to let me know!",

        "raw_content": "Tay Keith is the 21-year-old Memphis producer who wants to unite his city through music\nThe \u201cLook Alive\u201d producer is a college Senior who already has a top 10 hit under his belt.\nPhoto by Dylan Olsen\nMemphis rap is in the midst of a special moment. The city\u2019s youngest and brightest talents, from Blac Youngsta to Paper Route Empire protege Key Glock, and now BlocBoy JB, are actively developing their own distinct takes on what Memphis rap can be, and showing that it can thrive beyond the borders of its region. At the heart of this new wave of talent is 21-year-old producer Tay Keith, who\u2019s not only lent his spooky chords, knocking bass and 808s, and wicked hi-hats to Memphis rap\u2019s heavy hitters and rising stars alike, but has done so in a time when divides in the city run deep, and are highly publicized. In being able to work across beefs and conflicts by prioritizing the music and his personal relationships, he recognizes he\u2019s in a rare position \u2014 one he hopes to use to eventually unite his city, and provide resources and infrastructure to help Memphis rap reach its fullest potential.\nAt the moment, Keith\u2019s got a lot going on: \u201cLook Alive,\u201d the mega-hit he produced for Drake and his childhood friend and collaborator BlocBoy, has spent four weeks in the Billboard top 10; he\u2019s doing more traveling to work with artists beyond Memphis, and is rocking parties in central Tennessee \u2014 all the while wrapping up his senior year at Middle Tennessee State University. Over the phone from Atlanta, where he\u2019d just finished a session with Wiz Khalifa, Keith took some time out to talk about coming up in Memphis\u2019s storied rap scene, making hits with his childhood friends, the art of self-discipline, and his desire to unite his city through music.\nRead Next: Tay Keith on producing for Drake\u2019s Scorpion: \u201cHe wanted that Memphis slap\u201d\nWhere did you grow up? What was your upbringing like?\nI grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, born and raised. It was hard. I stayed with my momma, then I ended up moving with my daddy. I always knew music was gonna be my outlet, I just didn't know when, or how it was gonna happen.\nI grew up in the area where we had Three 6 Mafia, and Playa Fly, and 8Ball & MJG. My parents and my family used to listen to it. I learned from them there, and got more into it \u2014 listening to the beat of songs, and just learning more about music. Nobody was involved in music at all. I was the first one besides my brothers, they rap. I got two brothers and two sisters \u2014 I'm the youngest.\nWhat first got you into making music and producing? I know you were rapping at first.\nI was like 13, 14 years old. I had a Rock Band mic, and I used to record music and put it on YouTube and DatPiff. Then I started getting to producing my own music because I didn't want to keep rapping on beats I was getting on SoundClick. After that, I had started getting paid off of the beats I was putting on YouTube. That started giving me a check, so eventually I just focused more on production. I was using Mixcraft. I had my own equipment and a piano. I used to practice songs and remaking songs on it. I remember Lil Wayne's \u201cLollipop\u201d \u2014 I used to play the keys to that song. That kind of had me interested in continuing to do it.\nMy big brother, he was recording on Mixcraft. [I would] watch him rap and record, then I just started doing it on my own computer. I'm mostly self-taught, but Drumma Boy and Memphis Track Boy give me good advice, and this other producer called Lil Lody, they actually give me a lot of advice, because they from Memphis, and they\u2019ve made their way out too. I met Drumma Boy in Atlanta at an artist showcase. As far as like Memphis Track Boy, we [met] going to the studio.\nA post shared by Tay Keith (@1taykeith) on Mar 8, 2018 at 10:21pm PST\nThe darker chords you use sound influenced by the older generation of Memphis rap, but hearing your drums reminds me of Atlanta rap, too. Did you listen to that sort of stuff growing up?\nIt was a lot of music from down south like Ludacris, like 2 Chainz, and Yo Gotti, pretty much the whole south. The sound really originated from Memphis, as far as like Three 6 Mafia, DJ Parlor, DJ Squeaky. They had a big influence on the whole Memphis sound, Juicy J and them. So I just bumped the wave back up of the old Memphis music. Atlanta got a lot of stuff that Memphis don't got. One is unity, and two is creativity. It\u2019s like I brought the Memphis sound from Memphis to Atlanta in a sense.\nWhat was the first opportunity that really got you involved in the Memphis rap scene?\nWhen I was producing for Blac Youngsta, we had did a song. When he first signed with CMG, I had produced the song on his tape called \u201cWhole Life.\u201d On his next tape called Young and Reckless, I did three beats. From there, he had dropped a mixtape called Fuck Everybody, and I had produced \u201cLil Bitch,\u201d the single on the mixtape, and that got me a buzz in Memphis and Atlanta, where I\u2019d gotten a lot of opportunities after the song came out. That was two years ago. I just kept working with Moneybagg Yo, Blac Youngsta, and Blocboy JB, and I just progressed from that point on.\nWas there a moment that you remember where you can say you had found your sound?\nIt was a lot of trial and tribulations. It had to be Blac Youngsta and Moneybagg Yo, that\u2019s who I defined my sound with because, as their careers built, I kept building my sound also. The \u201cGang Gang\u201d record, it definitely defined my sound, with the crazy bass and hi-hats. Also the other stuff I did for Blac Youngsta and Moneybagg, like \u201cLil Bitch\u201d and \u201cNo Dealings,\u201d those crazy hi-hats and 808s set me aside from every other producer.\nHow would you describe the current state of Memphis\u2019s rap scene from your perspective?\nThe Memphis rap scene now is on a come up. We've got a lot of artist trying to be heard, but then we got a lot trying that ain't been heard yet. They just got to put a little bit more effort into it. But I mean, it's like Memphis is so divided, where it's two different sides. People don't really work with the other side, but like I had kind of broke that chain. That's how I feel I expanded past it.\nDespite Memphis being so divided, you\u2019ve produced for many artists from all over the city \u2014 how have you been able to maintain and do work with every artist?\nThe artists that I work with in Memphis, I have relationships with them. I went to high school with Key Glock. As far as Blac Youngsta, I was working with him from pretty much from the point in his career when he got signed. Blocboy, we had been working years ago. I had different relationships with everybody separately. It wasn't like we just linked up and started making music. I can't just say I'm going to stop messing with somebody because of their differences. Hopefully I\u2019ll be able to unite the city with the projects I\u2019ve got coming in the future.\nDid you ever see anyone growing up who kind of was in the similar position as you now?\nDrumma Boy, definitely. He has produced for everybody in Memphis like Yo Gotti, Young Dolph, everybody in Atlanta pretty much, all the major rappers like Gucci Mane. He did a lot of productions for a lot of people. I look at him as an example, to keep me going.\nIs there a piece of advice he\u2019s given you that\u2019s stuck with you?\nBasically, be careful of who you do your publishing with. Every artist and producer has their own publishing and stuff, just be careful what company you choose to collect your publishing.\nAfter the success you've been having, especially with Blocboy JB, I'm sure you're now getting all your business in order. What's it been like navigating that process, making sure you're compensated and taken care of on the business side?\nWith like every major publishing company I\u2019ve been beginning relationships, not necessarily signing with them. I feel like the most important part is staying cordial and keeping a good relationship with all of them because they all have so many different artists on a mass and international scale. They have so many artists that I will work with in the future, like even if I don't do business with them on like the signing level, I feel like I still would do with business with them as far as their artists, the songwriter.\nI'm still independent. I'm actually working now with some companies about negotiating my own label imprint so I can sign artists from Memphis. My homeboy Dan, he manages me, and we basically put together our own label. What we're going to do is get all these up-and-coming artists from Memphis and put them on a bigger [platform] so they'll be able to get a major deal, hopefully. Things of that nature.\nYou and Blocboy first met when you were both 14, and 7 years later you\u2019re making hit records. How did you guys first start making music together?\nWhen I had moved with my daddy when I was in high school \u2014 it was [in] Raleigh, in the North part of Memphis. [BlocBoy had stayed around the corner so we were just always kicking it in the hood before anything, getting with all our other homeboys before the music even popped. We would go out to the store and walk to the Sonic, just be in the neighborhood.\nMe, my brothers, and my cousin, we had some movable walls from my aunty, so we put a studio together in the garage, and we just started recording there. He fell in place then, he used to come through and we used to have everybody in the neighborhood in the garage record their music. We started out recording in the house in the garage, and we went from there to his house and started recording in his room. He used to be freestyling to the beat the whole time while I'm making it.\nWhen I went to college, they convinced me to send him beats. He used to rap on them and then when I\u2019d get back to Memphis we\u2019d make music together. This was before everything. It's just working. We had big dreams. We still record at the crib or wherever, or we'll cook up in the studio now.\nIn Bloc Boy's interview with FADER, he mentions you'd already been in contact with Drake, and that\u2019s how \u201cLook Alive\u201d came together.\nDrake had reached out to me, and we was in contact for a couple weeks. I was cooking him up some beats and sending them over, and he was picking the beats he liked. I guess that was the one that he wanted to make history with.\nYou mentioned earlier that you\u2019re in school. Where? What are you studying?\nMedia Management. I go to Middle Tennessee State University, just outside of Nashville. I'm a senior now. I decided on going here because pretty much everybody from White Station \u2014\nthe high school I had transferred to \u2014 was talking about going to MTSU.\nHow are you balancing school and work? You've got a full-blown career going.\nMy classes are only Monday through Thursday, so that gives me Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to travel and work. It\u2019s never been an issue. I DJ too at a lot of events, and I\u2019ve got a large college crowd in the middle Tennessee area, like Nashville. That keeps me in the area. It's another job for me, too.\nIt's about self-discipline, I\u2019ve learned. Somedays I be like, I want to go DJ, or, I want to go out of town or something, but then I had to think and let myself know, You better go make this move or that move, balance it all out.\nIs there anything you're learning in your program that you\u2019ve been able to apply in real life?\nYeah definitely. During the past three semesters, I've been learning more about my royalties, my mechanical royalties, my performance royalties, and about my copyright \u2014 things of that nature. I definitely can say I learned quite a bit from school and college. I know people say they don't really learn nothing in college, but the field I'm in, MTSU got one of the best media programs in the South. I felt like that school was best for me.\nWhere do you see Memphis rap scene going in the next few years? How do you see it looking?\nSince this whole Drake situation happened, I've been working with a lot of Memphis rappers on personal projects. I got a project with Juicy J, and his artist he just signed YKOM, that\u2019s about to drop. I feel like it's going to more unity, and with that being said, it should be more people actually having branches in Memphis as far as more studios, hopefully we can get record labels with offices in Memphis, things of that nature. Small steps before the big steps. I can't just say Memphis is going to jump out on top; I feel like just building more resources there will help.\nWhat might be one big goal that you have for this year?\nI want to go platinum. I need me a platinum plaque on the wall. I'll put it in my momma house. My momma love it, I talk to her all the time. I actually just got her a new house. For the grind, for me to come up \u2014 she been there supporting me, my father too. I\u2019ve got to repay them.\nBeat Construction, Hip-Hop, Memphis, Tay Keith",

        "title": "The Top 5 James Bond Films of All Time ~ Words From the Master",
        "raw_content": "With Quantum of Solace opening up this Friday, this felt like the right time for me to make this list. I been a James Bond fan ever since I was kid. I always wanted to be like him. I have seen every single one of the movies in the theaters since Licence to Kill came out and will do so again with this one. I think the series got too campy and silly at some points, in particular with Die Another Day with it's ice castles, invisible cars, and the horribly overrated Halli Berry. But, thank God the series hit one of it's highest notes with Casino Royale. Anywho, here are my five favorite Bond movies.\n5. - Considered by many to be the best in the series, and from a critical standpoint, it probably is. This movie defines the series: the girls, the car, the action, the villains, the gadgets. A perfect film that still holds up all these years later. Goldfinger and Oddjob are amongst the series best bad guys. Pussy Galore is gorgeous and has THE single greatest name in cinema history. Connery is, of course, in top form. An American movie classic.\n4. - While, George Lazenby only played Bond once, he manages to play Bond in one of the best entries in the series. What can be said about a movie where Telly Savalas plays Ernest Stavro Blofeld, the evil head of SPECTRE, and arch-enemy to James Bond? Savalas is great in the role of course, and the ending is one of the best, not just in the series, but movie history. Plus, the beautiful Daine Rigg is great as Tracy; Draco the only Bond girl to ever marry our hero.\n3. - My favorite Sean Connery (who is my favorite Bond, by the way) Bond film. And how could it not be? First off, the action is kick ass. Donald fucking Pleasance plays Blofeld! Conenry is in it. Akiko Wakabayashi, one of the most beautiful Bond women ever, is awesome as Aki, the main Bond girl in the film. And, Connery is great as Bond. I mean how could this not be one of my favorite films, ever? Oh, and I LOVE that poster! Wish that could be me!\n2. - I was skeptical of Daniel Craig playing bond, but man, this movie prove me wrong. He is THE best Bond since Connery. I love the way he plays Bond with such a cool, cocky, arrogant, and cold style. And, this film is not only one of the best Bond movies ever made, but one of the best action films. Le Chiffre is one of the greatest and coolest villains in Bond history. Eva Green is with a doubt one of the most beautiful Bond girls ever. She looks like a doll. What I really liked was that this served as a great point to restart to franchise. It serves as an excellent origin story. The serious, gritty tone and hard hitting action scenes give the film an edge the series has not seen in ages. Gone is the silliness and campiness that sort of hurt the franchise. This is truly one of the best film of the last few years and one that only gets better with each viewing.\n1. - My all time favortie Bond film. This Roger Moore classic is perfect in my opinion. Not as campy as some of the Bond films he is in, this one feels more like one of the earlier films in the series. The opening of him going to his wife's grave site and then finally dispatching Blodfeld is one of the most memorable moments in the entire series. This film also contains some truly amazing action scenes. I love the chase through the snow! I love Carole Bouquet as Melina Havelock, the beauty that joins Bond as she searches for vengeance for the death of her father. She is a stunning, awe-inspiring beauty. But, to me it is Lynn Holly Johnson as the skating beauty Bibi Dahl that is THE hottest babe in the movie. In fact, she and Famke Jansen of Goldeneye are the two most beautiful Bond babes ever, well to me anyways. In all, I been a fan of this fun, ass kicking, and all around awesome film since I was kid. It has a real special place in my heart, and thus tops this list.\n007, action films, Casino Royale, For Your Eyes Only, Goldfinger, James Bond, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, top 5 Lists, You Only Live Twice Edit",

        "title": "How to Make an Extra $2,000 per Year - The Money Sprout",
        "raw_content": "How to Make an Extra $2,000 per Year\nAre you looking to make extra income that is sustainable and dependable year after year?\nThere are many different side hustles you can start that could earn you a couple extra thousand dollars every year. However, most of them are not sustainable and require your time.\nFor example, years ago I set out to become a freelance writer but soon realized I was spending a ton of time every week researching, editing, and writing blog posts. That is when I realized that I didn\u2019t want to trade my time for the extra income I was earning. This is not to say I wouldn\u2019t consider freelance writing in the future \u2026 but it isn\u2019t right for me now based on the time requirement.\nBut wouldn\u2019t it be awesome if you could build an income stream that doesn\u2019t require a ton of time to maintain and grows on it\u2019s own? Well if that is what you are looking for \u2026 might I suggest building a dividend income stream.\nInvesting in dividend stocks is one of the most sustainable income streams out there that you can build and grow. It has been the most successful side hustle for my wife and I to date \u2026 and it continues to grow like crazy.\nAfter spending the last 4 to 5 years really building our dividend growth portfolio, we will finally make extra income from this source that tops $2,000 this year!\nThe great thing about this source of income is that it will continue to grow around 5% \u2013 7% a year if we take no action. However, if we want to make it to $3,000 per year or even $5,000 or $10,000 per year (which we do) \u2026 then we need to keep growing this source of income.\nIf you are ready to start your dividend income stream or want to ramp up your income, I have highlighted what it will take to make extra income that will surpass $2,000 a year.\nWhy $2,000 in Dividend Income?\nWhen my wife and I first started buying dividend stocks \u2026 we wanted to earn $100 a year. It wasn\u2019t long after we hit that target when we wanted to earn $200 in dividend income \u2026 then it went to $500.\nSo you may be asking \u2026 why is $2,000 in dividend income so special? It really isn\u2019t anything special to be honest \u2026 other than another milestone to build upon.\nIt was only 2 years ago when we discussed the importance of earning $1,000 in dividend income. Later that year (in 2015) we ended up earning $1,475 in dividend income and haven\u2019t looked back.\nNow just 2 years later, we will earn well over $2,000 in dividend income. Actually, our goal is to earn $2,400 in dividend income in 2017 \u2026 which I believe we should hit.\nThe following year \u2026 we have a goal to earn $3,000 in dividend income \u2026 which certainly looks achievable. Hopefully you are starting to see the pattern here.\nWhether you are just starting out building your dividend income stream, have been slowly buying dividend stocks for 5 or 10 years, or are able to live off your dividend income \u2026 it is important to set goals.\nAnd why not set a goal to earn a sustainable $2,000 annual income stream?\nHow to Reach $2,000 in Dividends\nJust like when we calculated how to earn $1,000 in dividend income annually \u2026 it is very simple to calculate how to earn $2,000 as well. Of course, it takes a lot more time and capital to make $2K instead of $1K, but the math is simple.\nAnd don\u2019t forget \u2026 you still need to invest in only the best dividend paying companies, in order for this income stream to work.\nSo the first step to earning $2,000 a year in dividend income is to only invest in companies that have had a history of raising dividends. For example, in our portfolio we use several criteria to screen for top dividend paying stocks. I suggest you follow a similar strategy for stock selection.\nOne important factor that we look for when screening top stocks is to find companies that pay a fair yield (which should be part of your screening process). As part of our stock screening process, we look for companies with a yield of at least 2.0% or higher. Every once in a while, we may lower this criteria below 2% if the company has a huge dividend growth rate such as Apple (AAPL).\nWe also look for companies that have a dividend payout ratio (DPR) of 60% or lower, a price to earnings ratio (P/E) under 20, and dividend growth rates (DGR) of 6% or higher.\nOnce we narrow down our list of stocks, we can easily calculate how much capital we would need to earn $2,000 in annual dividend income.\nEarn 1,000 in Dividend Income on a Stock Yielding 3%\nIn a perfect scenario, we would find a stock that yields 3.0% (or higher) with a 10-year dividend growth rate above 6%. In order to earn $2,000 on a stock yielding 3%, we would need to figure out our initial investment amount.\nInvestment Amount X 3.0% = $2,000 Annual Dividends\nBy dividing the annual dividends by our current yield, we can estimate that it will take $66,667 of capital to earn $2,000 in annual dividends.\n$66,667 X 3.0% = $2,000\nSo if you were to invest in this hypothetical company today, it would take almost $67,000 up front to earn $2,000 in dividend income a year.\nStocks that Can Earn $2,000 in Dividend Income\nLet\u2019s take a look at some real examples of quality stocks we could buy and turn it into a $2,000 dividend income stream.\nFor the purposes of this example, let\u2019s look for companies that pay a yield of 2.5% or higher. We are assuming that these companies have a solid history of raising dividends for a minimum of 10 years and will continue to do so for many years to come.\nNote \u2013 In today\u2019s market, it is difficult to find quality companies with a current yield over 3% \u2026 so we lowered our threshold by a half a percentage point from the previous example.\nRunning a quick screen, there are plenty of top notch companies out there currently offering a yield above 2.5%. For example, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) at 2.75%, Target (TGT) at 3.70%, and Realty Income Trust (O) at 4.20% have all been raising dividends for many years.\nNote \u2013 The current yields noted above for JNJ, TGT, and O are a point in time and are now out of date by the time you read this.\nSo in order to raise $2,000 in dividends by purchasing shares in Johnson & Johnson, Target, or Realty Income Corp \u2026 you would need between $47K to $73K of money to invest.\nJNJ = ($2,000 / 2.75%) = $72,727\nTGT = ($2,000 / 3.70%) = $54,054\nO = ($2,000 / 4.20%) = $47,619\nYou are probably thinking, I don\u2019t have an extra $50,000+ lying around ready to invest. You are certainly not alone.\nThat is why it may be easier to build $2,000 in dividend income by investing one month at a time. And that is exactly what my wife and I have been doing for the past 9+ years.\nAlso \u2013 I am not recommending purchasing all your shares in one stock alone. It is important to diversify your portfolio with many quality dividend paying stocks.\nInvesting Slowly \u2013 One Month at a Time\nI know that our family doesn\u2019t have an extra $50,000 lying around waiting to be invested. While we do try and live well below our means, that isn\u2019t enough to keep that amount of cash on hand.\nBut what we do have is an extra $8,000 to invest one year, another $13,000 the next, and $10,000 the following year. This year (2017), we are trying to invest close to $17,000 of our income into the stock market. In total over those 4 years, we have come close to having $50,000 to invest!\nSince buying our first dividend stock over 9 years ago, we have invested a total of $59,346.31 into our income portfolio. Collectively these stocks are earning a yield on cost of 4.35% for a future annual income of $2,580.\nThat is well above the $2,000 threshold for dividend income!\nSo instead of worrying about having a large sum of money to invest, it is perfectly fine to start slow and invest one month at a time.\nTips to Help You Build a $2,000 Income Stream\nEven though we don\u2019t necessarily have to build our $2,000 income stream overnight \u2026 there are a few things you can do to try and accelerate the process.\nFor example, take advantage of zero cost brokers any chance you can get. Companies like Robinhood and Stockpile have made it possible to invest for as little as $1 \u2026 with very low (or even none) commissions. Use these brokers to save all those commissions and fee\u2019s so you can invest small chunks of money each month.\nNot having enough money should not be an excuse not to invest!\nAnother tip for hitting your target sooner is to use large lump sums of money to invest in your dividend growth portfolio. For example, the past 3 years my wife and I have invested $5,000 of our tax return into dividend stocks. That is about 25% of our total investment in dividend stocks coming from tax returns.\nWe have also taken advantage of cost of living or raises from my full time job to invest the difference. Our spending doesn\u2019t really change now when we have an increase in income. The difference is simply invested into our portfolio.\nFinally, it is an absolute requirement that you reinvest your dividends. Some day in the future you can use your dividends to live off of, but when you are building your portfolio \u2026 you need to leverage your dividend income too.\nYou can sign up for dividend reinvestment plans (DRiP) or could invest in single shares of stock through Robinhood (zero commissions) with your dividend income. It doesn\u2019t matter how \u2026 just reinvest that income!\nOpen a Low Cost Brokerage Account with Stockpile\nInvesting around $66,667 in several quality dividend stocks earning 3.0% yield or higher should help you reach $2,000 in annual dividend income. Whether you invest this amount of money all at once, or you break it out over several years like we did doesn\u2019t necessarily matter.\nAs long as you have a plan in place to reach $2,000 in dividends, it is certainly achievable. Becoming creative in how you invest can also help reach $2,000 in dividends.\nMy wife and I could have certainly used our $5,000 tax return on a wonderful trip. But instead we used it to build our dividend income up this year. This move will not only push us to $2,000 in dividends, but will bump us past $3,000 next year!\nWe will likely do the same thing next year and the year after.\nHave you reached $2,000 in annual dividends yet? What advice can you offer those still working towards this goal?",

        "raw_content": "Why I Still Feel Like A Teenager At 21\nThe Extension of American Teenagerhood\nAlexis Collins Jun 15, 2016\nI sat across from an Australian while on a four-hour train ride from Switzerland to France. He was nice, but mostly talked to the woman in the section of seats on the other side of the train. However, when he did talk to my friend and me, I was struck by the way he treated me. When he asked about which university I attended, what my major was, and what my classes were like, I realized he was treating me like an adult. And it was weird, because I wasn\u2019t used to it. Then he mentioned that he had a 16-year old son who was living and attending school by himself in Germany. My friend looked at him and said, \u201cMy mom would be messaging me non-stop.\u201d\nI nodded. \u201cSo would mine.\u201d\nThe man was confused. \u201cReally? I mean, my wife and I try not to worry about our son. He can take care of himself.\u201d\nThis was when I realized that 16 is a different age in America. I believe that all 16-year-olds are young and still have a lot to learn. But then again, I\u2019m 21, young, and still have a lot to learn. However, just because I\u2019m young doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m also a teenager. It also doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m inexperienced.\n18 is the legal age of adulthood for Americans. At 18, Americans can vote and join the military. The drinking age, however, has always been a debate in America. When my parents were in college in the \u201980s, they could only drink beer and wine at 18. Hard liquor was off-limits until 21. When I was in England, I hadn\u2019t turned 21, yet it wasn\u2019t a big deal to order a cider. In the US, however, it\u2019s such a big deal to turn 21 that the day is excessively celebrated. After watching a bunch of 18-year-olds get black-out drunk in the UK, I don\u2019t think that giving them access to all alcohol at once is a good idea, especially since most families in the US don\u2019t usually introduce a healthy amount of alcohol to their teenagers during meals like they do in Europe. Instead, some sort of a transition into alcohol would be beneficial.\nI had a hard time transitioning from 17 to 18. I understood that I was legally an adult, but I didn\u2019t feel like it. I was told, \u201cYou might think you\u2019re an adult, but you\u2019re still just a teenager.\u201d The transition to college helped because it increased my independence. However, it was the summer breaks that threw me back in time. I was back in the house where I grew up, where society told me that I needed to do this, this, and this in order to have a productive summer and, therefore, a productive life. It didn\u2019t help that for the longest time, I couldn\u2019t get a summer job. When I did, I was told by several costumers that I didn\u2019t look a day over 15.\nI wonder why some people have the need to point this out. Telling me that I look like a teenager is the same as telling me that I look immature and inexperienced. Personally, I don\u2019t think I look 15, even though I know I look young. On the other hand, I know it\u2019s meant as a compliment, but a lot of people who have known me for years tell me, \u201cWow. I can\u2019t believe how old you\u2019ve gotten.\u201d More commonly, they direct this at my parents. It\u2019s strange. To me, it\u2019s normal that I\u2019ve gotten older. And it\u2019s normal for time to pass quickly. That\u2019s life.\nIn the US, your 20s are seen as an extension of your teens. It doesn\u2019t help that in order to be truly independent, you need to have transportation, have your own income, and live on your own. This is hard to do in today\u2019s society, since most young adults have to go to college. Since a student isn\u2019t usually out of college until the age of 22, it\u2019s difficult to be fully independent. And with the job market, it\u2019s hard for students to make enough money to move out of their parents\u2019 house during college.\nIn physiological terms, the period between teenagerhood and young adulthood is called emerging adulthood. In this phase, a person struggles to find his or her identity. However, I believe that people find their identity throughout their entire lives. While others think that age equates experience, I know that every person has had an experience that no one else has. The term \u201cemerging adulthood\u201d is a newer one, but one that America has embodied the further we go into the 21st century. It\u2019s a term that has extended teenagerhood.\nWhen I consider the Australian, I think that having full independence at 16 would be challenging. Parents should help ease the transition for their children by being there for them when they\u2019re teens, but also preparing them to become adults the closer they get to 18. 16-year-olds should begin to take on responsibilities and experiences beyond crushing schoolwork in order to prepare them for adulthood. After all, young adulthood is not an extension of teenagerhood. It\u2019s the next step in life.\nThe world we live in today has truly been shaped by many incredible people.\nchrissymajor\nchrissymajor Feb 14, 2019\nHappy Black History Month!

Both offences carry maximum imprisonment terms of 10 years.\nMHA then noted that the provision of the assurance is being done to try and ensure that Roach does not escape justice, and does not affect the general position taken by Singapore on corporal punishment. The UK Courts will decide whether to extradite Roach.\nThe unarmed man robbed $30,000 from a bank branch of Standard Chartered Bank at Holland Village at 11.25 am on 7 July 2017, making it the first Singapore bank robbery in 8 years since the last incident in 2008.\nHe was then seen wandering around the streets of Bangkok in just 6 hours after the crime.\nAfter running away for three days, the Royal Thai Police finally arrested the 28-year-old man on Sunday 10, at Boxpackers Hostel in the Ratchathewi district of central Bangkok.\nSingapore authorities were seeking assistance from Thai government to repatriate the Canadian, Unfortunately, the Attorney-General's Office in Bangkok rejected the request as Singapore has no extradition treaty with Thailand.\nRoach was sentenced to 14 months' jail in Thailand on 6 June last year for crimes linked to the bank robbery in Singapore, including violating money laundering and customs laws for smuggling the money into the country.\nHe was detained at London's Heathrow Airport by officers from the Metropolitan Police Extradition Unit on 11 January when he was on his way to Canada.\nSingapore is seeking his extradition on one count of robbery and one count of money laundering. Both offences carry a maximum jail term of 10 years.\nAccording to the Penal Code, in addition to a jail term, anyone found guilty of robbery in Singapore \"shall also be punished with caning with not less than six strokes\" if the crime was committed after 7 am and before 7 pm.\nMr Choo Zheng Xi, a director at Peter Low & Choo was quoted by media to have said, \u201cDiplomatic assurances are not legally binding and would not amount to legal precedent. Caning is mandatory for a conviction of robbery,\u201d\nHe went on to elaborate that \u201cWhat MHA\u2019s assurance means is that, if Roach were to be convicted of robbery, his sentence of caning would have to be commuted by the President of Singapore on the advice of Cabinet. Under existing case law, the President would have to act on the advice of Cabinet.\u201d\nEditor's note: This means that Singapore's promise to UK can be easily fulfilled as the President listens to the orders by cabinet even though under the law, there is no such allowance.",

        "raw_content": "World Aids day: We have 'never been closer' to medical breakthrough\nWritten by Linda McAvan and Theresa Griffin on 1 December 2015 in Opinion\nAs we mark world Aids day, can the EU invest better to fight HIV/Aids, ask Linda McAvan and Theresa Griffin.\nAs the European year for development draws to a close this month, we can take time to recognise the significant global development achievements that have been made in the last three decades.\nMalaria is on the retreat, polio has been eradicated from all but two countries in the world, and the rollout of immunisation programmes and vaccines has been one of the biggest public health achievements of the last 15 years.\nIt seems fitting that, in the year that European and world leaders committed to the eradication of malaria, HIV/Aids and TB as part of the 2030 agenda for sustainable development, the Nobel Prize for medicine will be awarded this month to honour the discovery of new therapies to treat parasitic diseases such as malaria and river blindness; drugs that save thousands of lives every year.\nCommission guide: EU aid is making 'life-changing differences', says Stylianides\nSirpa Pietik\u00e4inen: 'Gender inequality root cause' of African Aids crisis\nNeven Mimica: EU development aid 'is something to be proud of'\nLinda McAvan and Elly Schlein: EU development aid failing to deliver on family planning goals\nMaurice Ponga: Public-private partnerships 'vital' in fight against malaria\nWith such strides being made to improve health around the globe, on world Aids day, what is the state of progress in overcoming HIV/Aids worldwide, and how can we - the EU institutions, national governments, and the wider development community - do better?\nFor the first time in global health history, as part of the millennium development goals (MDGs), the world has reached a global treatment target in time: providing antiretroviral therapy (ART) to 15 million people by 2015. 73 per cent of pregnant women living with HIV now have access to antiretroviral medicines to prevent transmission of HIV to their babies; at the same time new HIV infections among children have been reduced by 58 per cent since 2000.\nDespite this progress, new HIV infections continue - two million in 2014 alone, a shocking 220,000 of which were children. Europe needs to continue to be a strong backer of organisations like the Global Fund, to continue and expand access to life-saving medicines.\nBut while the rollout of ARTs means that the disease is no longer a death sentence for millions of people, we are still waiting for a breakthrough that will tip the battle decisively in our favour. If we are to end the HIV/Aids epidemic by 2030 as we are committed to do, then we need to equip ourselves with new and better treatment and prevention tools.\nThis can only be achieved through support for ground-breaking health research. Research is currently being conducted that could potentially lead to new ways to treat children living with disease, or to break the cycle of mother-to-child transmissions.\nWe have never been closer to what could be the biggest game changer in global health in the next 30 years - a vaccine for HIV with the potential to save millions of lives each year. If we are to make this breakthrough, researchers working in labs in Europe and in sub-Saharan Africa need our support.\nThe European Commission has been among the frontrunners of efforts to support global health innovation in recent years. However, European public funding for research into HIV/Aids, TB and malaria has fluctuated in recent years.\nAs parliamentarians, we will continue to advocate for EU leadership on development assistance, and to reverse the trend of declining global health innovation spending. We can work across committees to leverage the potential of the innovation agenda to bring tangible benefits to people living with HIV - in Europe and the rest of the world.\nWe need to learn from new and innovative product development models, and how we can support them with an enabling environment. We can look to ongoing processes - for example the annual budget cycle, and particularly the coming mid-term review of the EU's seven years budget - for opportunities to invest in the fight against HIV/Aids and other poverty-related diseases.\nWe will not defeat HIV/Aids tomorrow, but if we are ambitious and make this investment now, then in 15 or 20 years, who knows, we could be celebrating world Aids day together with a Nobel Prize for a vaccine or cure for HIV achieved through European research.\nTheresa Griffin (S&D, UK) is a member of Parliament's industry, research and energy committee\nPM+: Consistency needed for EU clinical trials regulation to work\nThe EU's new clinical trials regulation still has a few implementation challenges to overcome, says Prof. Christian Dittrich.\nResponsible approach is the key to minimising antibiotic resistance\nAntibiotic resistance poses a serious risk.

        "raw_content": "Cash Value and Life Insurance: How to Pull Money Out of Your Policy\nCompare life insurance by visiting our Life Insurance Resource Center.\nWhile term life insurance doesn\u2019t build cash value, other types of life insurance work differently. Whole life insurance, which is also called permanent life insurance, for example, offers a death benefit but also builds cash value you can borrow against.\nIn that sense, this \u201ccash value life insurance\u201d serves multiple purposes. Not only does it protect your family in the event of your death, but it can serve as a financial resource you can lean on when it makes sense.\nBut, should you borrow against cash value life insurance? Maybe, but maybe not.\nYou see, borrowing against cash value life insurance is not a black and white issue \u2013 it\u2019s very much dependent on individual circumstances and goals. The best advice I can give is to read up on the expert advice out there \u2013 articles like my own \u2013 until you feel you\u2019ve developed a solid understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of borrowing from your policy; only then can you make an informed decision that is based on your actual circumstances.\nborrowing against cash value is not a black and white issue \u2013 it\u2019s very much dependent on individual circumstances and goals.\nAs we\u2019ve discussed in earlier articles, life insurance policies that build cash value, such as whole or universal life, are more costly than pure insurance term policies because part of that additional cost goes into building cash value. Building cash value takes time, but before you start building up your own, there are some risks you need to understand.\nWhat Is Cash Value?\nUnderstanding cash value as it relates to cash value life insurance is vital to making an informed, effective decision. Cash value is a portion of your policy\u2019s death benefit which has become liquid. It grows at different rates for different insurers. This is referred to as the rate of accumulation \u2013 the ROA. Universal life policies offer different options for how excess premium is invested, which will then result in a different rate of return for that policy.\nif you borrow against it and die while the loan is outstanding, the death benefit is reduced by the amount of the outstanding loan\nThe risk comes from the fact that it is a part of your death benefit. This means that if you borrow against it and die while the loan is outstanding, the death benefit is reduced by the amount of the outstanding loan. So before you borrow against your accumulated cash value, one of the questions you should ask yourself is this:\nIf I die the day after I borrow the money, will there be enough death benefit left to fulfill my reason for buying the insurance in the first place?\nIt\u2019s Not Free Money!\nA very common misconception about borrowing money from life insurance cash value is that it is free money, a \u201cno strings\u201d and \u201cno expense\u201d sort of deal. This is simply not true.\nLife insurance companies are in business to make money, and when you withdraw cash value from a policy, the insurance company no longer has that money available to invest, cover overhead, or pay other beneficiaries claims, and so they charge interest to make up the difference.\nUnlike a bank loan, you are not obligated to pay back a loan against your cash value; this might sound like a great deal \u2013 it\u2019s not. The risk here is that the lack of a requirement to repay the loan means the loan never gets paid back. Interest on borrowed cash value will continue to accrue and eat away your death benefit, further reducing what will be there for your loved ones when you are gone.\nBorrowing from the cash value of your life insurance does have some upsides, the biggest of which is the tax advantage. Withdrawals of any amount from the accumulated cash value of your whole or universal life policy are tax free up to the amount of the premiums you have paid. As a rule, \u201cwithdrawals\u201d generally includes loans.\nThis tax-free status is a lifetime benefit which means that it will continue to be untaxed as long as you live, even if you do not repay it. However, the tax-free status ends with your death; any outstanding balance at that time is taxable. It is always advisable to check with an accountant before moving forward. Tax laws and regulations are always changing and it is better be safe than sorry.\nIt Won\u2019t Be There When You Need It\nLife is uncertain and death is inevitable; removing cash value from your life insurance policy may leave you vulnerable to life\u2019s uncertainties. The whole point of life insurance is to provide some financial stability for your loved ones if you pass away unexpectedly; if you borrow too much against your policy, you risk sabotaging that essential goal.\nHowever, one advantage of cash value beyond loans is that it can be used to pay premiums, and therefore keep your insurance in place when you\u2019re unable to manage payments due to difficult financial circumstances.\nWhen Is a Good Time to Borrow?\nThere are times when conventional loans or credit are just not an option, such as when your credit is poor. If your only alternatives are high-interest credit card advances, payday loans, or high-interest personal loans, your life insurance policy may be your best option. Bear in mind that a conventional loan is often a better choice in the long run, especially if you can get one at a low interest rate.\nBorrowing against your cash value also makes perfect sense if you have a high cash value and are presented with an investment opportunity that generates a higher return than the interest on your loan. Of course you should remember that there really is no such thing as a risk-free investment; you should carefully weigh the risks and possible rewards before withdrawing funds.\nOther Ways to Get Money Out\nLoans are not the only way to access the accumulated cash value of your whole or universal life policy \u2013 they\u2019re just the most common.\nMany insurers pay an annual dividend to policyholders. Insurance dividends are usually the money that is left over from all the premiums collected after overhead expenses and claims are paid. They are non-taxable because the IRS considers them a return of premium rather than a traditional dividend; so they are a great way to get some extra money out of your life insurance.\nAnother option is called surrender value. Generally speaking, after a policy has been in force for at least three years and the policy has accumulated some cash value, you can cancel the policy and take the surrender value in a cash payment. In the early years of a policy there are usually fees involved that will reduce the cash value. Finally, one other option is a life settlement, in which the policy is sold to a third party for a cash sale.\nThe more important thing to remember is that surrender means giving up the insurance. You get the cash value less any fees and the insurance is terminated. Unlike a loan, there is no interest or repayment \u2013 but there is also no death benefit. Consider surrender only as a last resort or if you have adequate life insurance in place elsewhere.\nOne of the reasons you decided to buy a whole or universal life policy was the fact that it builds cash value and having the ability to borrow against it. The other and perhaps more important reason you purchased permanent insurance was to make provisions for those left behind after your death.\nThe Ultimate Guide to Choosing a Term Life Insurance Policy\nFive Things Your Life Insurance Agent Won\u2019t Tell You\nSix Things to Look for in a Life Insurance Policy",

        "raw_content": "Know Your Antique Desk Styles\nIdentifying Furniture Used for Writing and Storage\n- Photo Courtesy of The Queen Anne Mansion\nA desk is a desk, right? Well, not really. Many different types of desks have developed over the centuries, and many of them don't resemble modern home and office desks much at all. A number of these styles have been revived over and over, and still inspire reproductions in their likeness. Some also overlap in their descriptors. These include slant-fronts like the escritoire and fall-fronts like the butler's desk, among a number of others.\nBureau Mazarin\n- Prices4Antiques.com\nThe Bureau Mazarin is an early type of kneehole desk dating from the 1660s, with two or three tiers of drawers on each side, a small central drawer and a drawer in the kneehole space as well. It usually has eight (but sometimes four) turned legs resting on toupie feet, connected with X-stretchers or H-stretchers.\nDeveloped in France, and associated with Louis XIV-style furniture, the Bureau Mazarin was usually quite ornate and lavishly adorned with Boulle marquetry. The name, which literally means \"Mazarin's desk\" is a 19th-century term, referring to Cardinal Jules Mazarin, who ruled as Louis' regent from 1642-1661\nButler's Desk\nOften referenced as a butler's chest, this is a type of drop-front desk, fairly short and compact but substantial and square in shape. The interior contains several small drawers, cubbyholes and letter slots surrounding a central door. Some models also have two exterior compartments flanking the fall front. The lower half usually has three to four drawers or, occasionally, shelves behind two doors.\nDating from the late 18th century, and continuing in popularity for the next 100 years, this desk usually reflects predominant furniture styles of the period in details such as the feet or ornamentation. Sometimes referenced as a butler's chest since, when closed, it resembles a chest of drawers.\nWhile fairly plain - as befitting a utilitarian piece of furniture - butler's desks often had fashionable decorative details. Those made during the second half of the 19th century, for example, might have had a spindled galley typical of the popular Eastlake style.\nCheveret\nThe Cheveret is a variety of small, delicate stand or desk, specifically of the type commonly referred to as a \"ladies writing desk.\" Distinguished by the multi-drawered setback chest or bookcase on the top, the smaller piece has a handle and is usually detachable while the main surface typically has a drawer underneath and often a fold-out or pull-out shelf.\nThe legs on a Cheveret can be straight, saber style, or tapering, and are sometimes connected with a lower shelf as well. Though probably originating in France, Cheverets further developed in England in the latter half of the 18th century, representing the vogue for light, portable furniture. They continued to be popular into the Regency period, until the 1830s.\nDavenport Desk or Ship Captain's Desk\n- Pook & Pook, Inc. / Prices4Antiques.com\nThe Davenport is a type of small case desk, with a slanted and/or pull-out top and a row of drawers down one or both sides. Some have one side of working drawers and one side of faux drawers. Many also have small front drawers, cubbyholes, hidden compartments released by a knob in one of the drawers, or pop-up galleries.\nThe Davenport dates from the 1790s, developed by a British furniture-making firm named Gillows (also known as Gillow & Co.). Its name derives from the client it was made for, a Captain Davenport. Because of this military connection, and the desk's compact size and multiple compartments, furniture historians theorize the piece was originally intended to be used on a ship, or on military campaigns. They are sometimes referenced, in fact, as a ship captain's desk.\nHowever, the Davenport became popular on dry land in the 19th century, in homes throughout England and the United States. Originally a simple chest of drawers with a swivel top, it grew increasingly ornate, with pilasters or cabriole legs in front. It traditionally rests on bun feet, often with castors to make it portable from room to room.\n- Morphy Auctions\nAn escritoire is a type of case furniture, usually a low desk with a slant top. When open, this sloping lid forms a surface for writing or reading (the name derives from the French word \"\u00e9crire\", meaning \"to write.\")\nDeveloped in the early 18th century, the escritoire grew out of - and the term may still apply to - a writing box or small cabinet with a drop-front and drawers or shelves dating from the Middle Ages, most likely from Spain.\nFall-Front Desk\n- Photo Courtesy of Morphy Auctions\nThis popular type of desk, also known as a drop-front, originated in Spain in the 16th century as the vargue\u00f1o. Since then it's been incorporated into many different desk styles, including the Butler's desk pictured.\nThis type of flat-topped desk, first made in England in the early 1700s, features a flat top supported by two banks of drawers or cabinets separated by a space for the legs of the person using the desk. It has been manufactured in many different styles since its introduction and is still popular with companies producing Colonial reproductions.\nThis antique desk style, popular from the late 1800s through the early 1900s, is said to have originated in England. Two-sided desks such as these were often used by bankers who wished to work together for convenience. They are the same on each side allowing individuals to face one another. Since they are essentially office furniture, they are usually heavy and well-made from quality woods such as mahogany or oak. Some examples have leather tops as well.\nSlant-Front Desk\nSlant-Front desks have evolved over time, with the first examples having hinges at the top. Many different types and styles have been made with slanted tops since then, including a number of those shown with this feature.\nThis coveted Victorian desk style was the executive's choice when it was first introduced. In fact, it was deemed \"The King of Desks.\"\nToday collectors relish finding these marvelous pieces more as curiosities and conversation starters than for their usefulness.\nSpecial thanks to contributing writer Troy Segal for her assistance with this article.\nIs This a Fall-Front or Drop-Front Desk?\nWhat Qualifies as Slant-Front Desk?\nAntique Accent Table Styles\nExamples of Antique Furniture Leg Styles\nBeautiful and Functional Japanese Antiques\nLearn About American Antique and Collectible Furniture\nGreat Antique Table Styles and How to Identify Them\nThe Amazing, Collectible Wooton Desk",

        "raw_content": "Laura Secord\u2019s historic walk immortalized in wilderness trail and opera\nLaura Secord set out alone from her Queenston home early one morning in 1813 on an arduous 32-kilometre journey through thick woods and across rushing streams. Fearing attacks by wild animals and risking discovery by American forces, she pressed on for 18 hours to warn the British of an impending invasion.\nIt has taken 200 years, but Canada is finally honouring the brave young woman who helped turn around the War of 1812 by recreating the path she paved that auspicious day.\nCaroline McCormick, a descendant of Laura Secord, poses for outside Laura Secord's homestead in Queenston where a trail marking her ancestor's heroic 1813 trek will begin. The Laura Secord Legacy Trail will open Saturday June 22, 200 years to the day after Secord\u2019s trek. (Tara Walton / Toronto Star)\nLaura Secord (Toronto Star)\nThe Laura Secord Legacy Trail will open Saturday June 22, 200 years to the day after Secord\u2019s heroic trek.\nIt won\u2019t be as difficult \u2014 no fording streams on fallen logs or taking cover behind cows \u2014 but it will be a faithful recreation of the trek that led the British to victory in the Battle of Beaver Dams.\n\u201cI am so proud of what she did as a woman,\u201d said Secord descendant Christine McCormick. \u201cIt is the story of courage, perseverance and determination.\u201d\nMcCormick is the force behind the trail and founder of Friends of Laura Secord, a not-for-profit community group \u201cdedicated to sharing the story of our best-known national heroine.\u201d\nGrowing up in Alberta, McCormick always knew she was a relative of Secord\u2019s but associated her mostly with Laura Secord chocolates.\nIt wasn\u2019t until she moved from Alberta to Niagara-on-the-Lake 10 years ago that McCormick began to understand the historical significance of the woman who helped the British side win the War of 1812.\nSecord\u2019s story has consumed the artist\u2019s life for the past three years as McCormick laboured to create a lasting legacy for her ancestor and focus on the celebrations of the 200th anniversary.\nEarlier this week McCormick attended rehearsals of the Canadian Children\u2019s Opera Company\u2019s Laura\u2019s Cow: The Legend of Laura Secord which is at the Enwave Theatre from May 2 though to May 5.\n\u201cThe children are magnificent. Anybody of any age would love the performance,\u201d she said.\nThe work, which premiered at Luminato in 2012, travels to St. Catharines on June 1 to perform at Laura Secord Secondary School.\nAll of this attention on the contribution of the young wife and mother is a thrill for McCormick who has traced other family members to Alberta, the U.S., Guatemala and Norway.\nIn 2010, McCormick formed Friends of Laura Secord, which has about 100 members, to create the trail so everyone \u201ccould walk in Laura\u2019s shoes.\u201d Four municipalities participated in the planning process involving environmentally sensitive lands. Funding came from individuals and agencies including the federal government.\nThe trail is interactive with smartphone apps that provide commentary about the life of pioneer women and the involvement of the First Nations in the successful war against the United States as well as the flora and fauna.\n\u201cThere are so many parts to Laura\u2019s story,\u201d says McCormick, adding that the First Nations participated in preparing the materials for the trail.\nThe trail starts at Secord\u2019s modest Queenston home, which has been restored and outfitted as an interpretive centre, and ends at historic DeCew House in Thorold, where aboriginal forces loyal to the Brits escorted Secord to deliver her message to British Lt. James Fitzgibbons.\nOne of the key elements of the trail is a low impact suspension footbridge that now spans the creek. It was paid for by donations and a gift from an unknown benefactor.\nSecord\u2019s descendants have been invited to attend the opening of the trail on June 22. The inaugural trek, which beings at 6 a.m. and runs all day is open to the public. Register at www.friendsoflaurasecord.comwww.friendsoflaurasecord.comEND",

(Photo: IANS)\nWest Bengal Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi on Saturday visited the strife-torn areas of Raniganj and Asansol in West Bardhaman district and urged people to maintain peace and harmony.\nTripathi held a meeting with police officers and the local administration and took stock of the current situation in the area that was hit by communal tension earlier this week.\n\u201cI had plans to visit Asansol and Raniganj two days earlier, but for certain reasons the visit did not materalise. I have come here with the message of peace. Peace should be paramount. I appeal to all the people belonging to all castes and communities to live in harmony,\u201d Tripathi told reporters here.\nThe Governor said he has been briefed by senior administrative officials about how the unrest took place and the evasive measures taken up to keep the situation under control.\nMeanwhile, a Congress delegation led by party\u2019s state president Adhir Chowdhury was stopped by police from entering Asansol.\nThe Congress activists held a sit-in on the national highway, demanding an answer from the Trinamool Congress and the BJP on why the clashes took place.\n\u201cHow can the administration impose CrPC 144 on a national highway? We did not enter any locality. What is the Bengal government so scared of that they have to stop the peace-loving people two-three kilometres away from the area of unrest?\u201d Chowdhury asked.\nHe also claimed that the state administration\u2019s lack of alertness was responsible for the current situation in the area.\nA person was allegedly hacked to death while a Deputy Commissioner of Police lost a hand after getting hit by a bomb during the clash between two groups centring on a Ram Navami procession organised by the sangh affiliates in Raniganj on Monday.\nSeveral others including police personnel were also injured and several shops and houses vandalised and set ablaze during the clashes.\nThe communal tension spilled onto other parts of Asansol forcing the administration to impose prohibitory orders in the area and suspend internet services.\nNineteen people were arrested for fomenting trouble and local MP and BJP leader Babul Supriyo stopped from visiting the area.\nA four-member committee formed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Amit Shah is scheduled to visit the trouble hit areas on Sunday and submit a report.\nThe Home Ministry has also sought a report from the state government on incidents of arson and violence during the processions.\nHowever, the Trinamool Congress government denied knowledge of any such directive from the Central government and blamed the BJP for the unrest.\nThe BJP, which is trying to pitchfork itself as the main challenger to the Trinamool in the state, has been using the Ram Navami celebrations since last year to appeal to the majority Hindu population.\nSensing the BJP\u2019s motive, the Trinamool also resorted to celebrate the occasion on its own this year.\nKeshari Nath Tripathi\nWest Bengal Governor\nWest Bengal Governor preparing report on CBI episode\nMamata, Tripathi wish people on Kali puja and Deepavali",

        "raw_content": "The People have Spoken: The Midterm Election in Mexico\nElection Day (Photo: Archive)\nThese elections have shown something mighty interesting to the citizens of Merida, the state of Yucatan and the rest of Mexico. The first thing proved is that the election worked and millions across the country gathered to exercise their right to vote. In the state of Yucatan and the city of Merida, the turnout exceeded the expectations, even more in the case of a midterm election.\nFor the vast majority of citizens, the INE (before IFE) met its goal of providing certainty in the process, as there were doubts regarding their capability for a good performance in these elections.\nThe fact is that, so far according to the PREP count, states with serious conflicts such as Michoacan and Guerrero have been taken over by other political parties through a democratic process, creating an alternation, as a clear indication of how citizens feel.\nAnd what to say about Jaime Rodr\u00edguez \u201cEl Bronco\u201d, who makes history by becoming the first so-called \u201cindependent candidate\u201d to achieve a victory in one of the most important states of Mexico, Nuevo Leon.\nThe victory of \u201cEl Bronco\u201d delivers a clear message: a massive weariness of the people of Nuevo Le\u00f3n. But this contender is not a \u201crookie\u201d when it comes to politics; he made a career as part of the PRI for many years, so he knows how to get the votes, how to operate politics, but above all, he knows the tricks of politics and politicians and how to counter attack.\nRodriguez faces a great challenge, takes on a huge responsibility and he will have to prove he really offers a different kind of government, which is what people expect. It would be very unfortunate if this win comes as result of a \u201cFox effect\u201d (in reference to what happened with former President Vicente Fox Quezada who was long expected to win the Presidency, and at the end, the results were mediocre at best). Hopefully \u201cEl Bronco\u201d will become a reference point at national level and he will be able to prove he has what it takes to make that difference that many expect, if so, he could even consider to run for \u201cThe Big One\u201d in 2018.\nAs for President Pe\u00f1a Nieto, this is a wake-up call for him and his party to start doing something different asap! Radical changes are needed, and as we say in marketing terms, a \u201crelaunch\u201d of his government is required. After these elections, Pe\u00f1a\u2019s administration needs to be careful and make a close analysis of the situation; if not, the president and the people of Mexico are facing three very complicated years.\nTalking about Mexican politics, the striking force of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador remains a \u201cphenomenon\u201d for some, \u201cprodigious\u201d\u2018 to other, since his new party, MORENA (National Regeneration Movement) has achieved unprecedented results. The political geography of the country changes with the presence of MORENA, and many will begin to worry as this party continues to advance and rise to levels that could represent a real danger for the PRD.\nAndres Manuel is an experienced and skilled political operator (he previously operated for the PRI and PRD), and it is a fact that the PRD will react to this threat. This will be an interesting battle of the National \u201cLeft Wing\u201d parties, to be followed with particular attention.\nSo far, the PREP trend (still to be confirmed by the electoral authorities), indicates PAN\u2019s Mauricio Vila Dosal won the election. He is a young businessman and politician, who will rule the city of Merida the next three years. On the other hand, this is a hard defeat for PRI\u2019s Nerio Torres who will have to rethink the course of his political career.\nVila will take office in part, due to a city that does not forget what happened with the Ortega-Araujo duo, a city with high expectations regarding his campaign promises and that expects him to make a difference. He will face difficult situations that will require knowledge of the art of negotiation and he will have to solve conflicts left to him by his predecessor, and it will not be easy \u2026 but, then again\u2026 what in life is?\nVila will have to \u201ctake the bull by the horns\u201d (as we say in Mexico) on serious and complex issues such as the debt of the municipality and the private litigation of it.\nIt is said that people get the government they deserve\u2026 It is time to put that saying to the test.\nby Jos\u00e9 E.

        "raw_content": "What 'Molly' \u2014 the drug of choice in elite circles \u2014 does to your brain and body\nErin Brodwin and Kevin Loria\nUnsplash/Anthony Delanoix\nExclusive sex parties fueled by drugs like Molly are apparently how the tech world elite like to get down in Silicon Valley, according to an excerpt from Emily Chang's new book, \"Brotopia: Breaking Up the Boys' Club of Silicon Valley.\" Chang reported the events, in which women are both pressured to participate yet stigmatized for doing so, are common enough that they're not even really a secret.\nMolly \u2014 a nickname for MDMA, itself an abbreviation for the drug commonly known as ecstasy \u2014 has been a party drug for decades, ever since psychopharmacologist Alexander \"Sasha\" Shulgin synthesized and tested the drug on himself in the 1970s.\nShulgin, known as the godfather of ecstasy, was entranced by his testing. He began to advocate for the use of MDMA in clinical settings, but it soon started turning up in clubs, leading to a widespread ban in 1985. Once ecstasy developed a reputation for being adulterated with more dangerous chemicals, people starting asking for \"Molly\" as an allegedly pure form of the drug. Here's what we know about what MDMA does to your body and brain.\nMDMA, \"Molly,\" or ecstasy was created by pharmaceutical company Merck in 1912 and is currently considered an illegal substance in the US with no medical benefit and a high potential for abuse.\nAlexander 'Sasha' Shulgin and his wife Ann at \"The Future of the Brain\" conference at MIT in December 2005.\nContrary to legend, MDMA was not first part of an experiment in suppressing the appetites of soldiers in the German army. Instead, Merck scientists created the chemical while trying to make a drug that would prevent blood clotting. The molecule was abandoned for a while, but had been considered promising because of its similarity to adrenaline.\nAccording to Merck records, it was likely first tested on humans in 1959 and then started to appear every so often in the 1060s and 70s until Shulgin re-created it, was enthralled, and began to push for it to be used in therapy sessions. Its popularity spread.\nNevertheless, the drug remains popular. In the short-term, ecstasy can make you feel good.\nIn the brain, MDMA amps up the activity of three key chemical messengers involved in mood regulation: serotonin, norepinephrine and, to a lesser extent, dopamine.\nMost of our conclusions about the effects of MDMA have focused on serotonin, one of the most widely-studied neurotransmitters. In addition to acutely affecting mood, serotonin is thought to affect how we sleep and experience pain.\nSmall neuroscientific studies of the drug suggest it may help blunt negative feelings about the past while enhancing positive ones\u2014 a conclusion that would make logical sense given its reputation as a \"love drug.\"\nFor a small study published in the International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, women were alternately given MDMA and a placebo (without knowing which was which) and asked to recall their favorite and least-favorite memories of themselves. When given the MDMA, the women rated their favorite memories as \"significantly more vivid, emotionally intense, and positive,\" while they rated their worst memories as \"less negative,\" the authors wrote in their paper.\nYou may also feel more energetic.\nWhile some components of MDMA have psychedelic or sensory enhancing-effects, it also has stimulant properties that users report gives them the energy to dance or engage in vigorous physical activity for hours.\nMDMA \u2014 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine \u2014 is at least in part a derivative of amphetamines, giving it those energy-boosting properties.\nYour heart rate will increase on Molly.\nA dose of MDMA boosts heart rate and can increase blood pressure, just like other stimulants. Dangerous side effects are much more likely in cases where unknown chemicals (likely amphetamines) have been mixed into ecstasy pills.\nAnd it might also cause you to feel hot or give you the chills.\nThose same energizing effects that boost heart rate and blood pressure also raise body temperature. Some people experience hot flashes or chills because of this effect.\nIt's possible that people who have taken ecstasy in a warm place (like a packed club) and spent hours engaging in vigorous physical activity without taking time to cool down could experience a rare side effect, hyperthermia, which requires medical attention. MDMA use does increase the risk of heat stroke.\nDehydration is also a concern in these settings, though there are some people who have harmed themselves by drinking too much water because of that fear, which can be dangerous.\nEcstasy enhances sensory experiences, which is why it's often associated with music events and sex.\nNot only does ecstasy provide a prolonged euphoric experience, users report that it enhances sensory experiences like music and physical sensations like touch.\nUsers may be more likely to engage in risky sexual behaviors, according to at least one small study.\nEcstasy can amplify what you see, feel, and hear.\nEcstasy is both a stimulant and a psychedelic, meaning it has both energy-raising and hallucinogenic properties. While it may not induce outright hallucinations, MDMA can seem to amplify or enhance what you see, feel, and hear. Activities like dancing, talking, and touching may appear to intensify these feelings even further.\nScientists are studying its potential to help treat PTSD and other psychiatric diseases.\nDespite its party drug reputation, neuroscientists and psychologists are hard at work studying MDMA's potential to help treat serious psychiatric diseases like post-traumatic stress disorder. The drug may help users put extremely negative experiences like those of violence or war into perspective, enabling them to move on with their lives in a positive way.\nOne arm of this research involves studying MDMA in veterans with PTSD. Study participants are given small doses of the drug alongside traditional talk therapy.\nTogether, the two treatments could help produce faster and more measurable results, according to people involved in the research.\n\"Psychotherapy is painful, it's slow, it's fits and starts, you start to get to something important and then the patient disappears for a month,\" Julie Holland, a New York-based psychiatrist and the medical monitor for one MDMA-PTSD study, told Business Insider at a recent psychedelic research conference in London.\n\"MDMA can act as a catalyst to make the therapy go faster [and] deeper,\" Holland said.\nBut more research is needed before it's deemed safe by the Food and Drug Administration.\nReuters/ DEA\nThe Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) is the group leading the charge to get MDMA approved for medical use. Their efforts passed a major hurdle in the summer of 2017 when the US Food and Drug Administration granted it a special designation that could fast-track its approval to treat PTSD.\nBecause it's still illegal, the ecstasy that is bought and sold on the black market is unregulated \u2014 meaning it can be adulterated or mixed with other, cheaper drugs. This can result in a dangerous product that can produce unwarranted side effects.\nMany case reports cited in the 1990s that warned of the drug producing \"holes in your brain,\" for example, likely involved adulterated forms of the drug instead of pure MDMA.\nThe effects of a common dose of MDMA can last up to 6 hours.\nA typical dose of 7 or 80 to 125 mg lasts three to six hours.\nSome users report nausea while an MDMA high is coming on, but most report relaxation and clarity within about 45 minutes. The peak high, which is often referred to as \"rolling,\" comes on within about an hour to an hour and a half.\nMost effects subside after three to five hours, with some people feeling aftereffects a bit longer than that.\nYour pupils will dilate, and you may become sensitive to light.\nShutterstock/sruilk\nLike with other drugs, especially many with psychedelic properties, pupils often dilate and users may become sensitive to light.\nThis effect is caused by drugs rapidly increasing serotonin levels in the brain.\nMDMA has also been linked with jaw-clenching and tooth grinding.\nJust like with other drugs with stimulant properties, MDMA use can lead to jaw-clenching and tooth grinding along with increased heart rate. This effect is likely to be worsened for users taking potentially adulterated pills.\nYour muscles may also feel tense, and some people can faint on ecstasy.\nMixing alcohol with MDMA is more dangerous.\nShutterstock/Dragon Images\nWhile MDMA does make people likely to engage in physical activity, the stimulant effects on muscles and perception are varied. Most people's reactions are impaired, some people experience restless legs or muscle stiffness, and in rare cases people have reported fainting.\nAfter taking the drug, some users report a come-down accompanied by feelings of sadness or depression.\nShootdiem/Shutterstock\nPreclinical studies suggest that using Molly may temporarily deplete the brain's serotonin stores. After the initial \"high\" wears off, some users report intense feelings of sadness, anxiety, or even depression that can last between one and three days. Some people say it effects their sleeping patterns and appetite as well.\nHowever, since most studies on these effects have been confined to rats, experts say more research on humans is needed to better understand what's going on in the brain.\nSEE ALSO: These are the 5 most addictive substances on the planet\nMore: Features Health Silicon Valley MDMA",

        "raw_content": "WHERE DID YOU GROW UP: I grew up in LA, specifically and most viscerally, in my grandma's backyard watering plants and helping in the garden and running around naked. But I also grew up in Paris, chasing pigeons and hanging out with my other grandmother. My grandmothers were pretty great.\nMy parents and I went back and forth between LA and Paris for most of my growing up (my dad is the French one) but I'm really a Californian at heart. My great-grandparents and my grandparents all built houses here; it's in my blood. But I'm grateful that along with a suburban upbringing I also got to travel a lot as a kid and see that there are lots of different ways to live your life. That everyone does it differently.\nWHEN DID YOU FIRST BECOME INTERESTED IN PHOTOGRAPHY: My parents are both creative and definitely nurtured that side of me. I took a lot of drawing and painting classes but when someone handed me a camera I basically never looked back. Taking pictures was so much faster than drawing! It satisfied that impatient part of me.\nMy dad gave me my own camera, a red Konika, when I was 9. I loved taking pictures on trips of weird details and piles and messes and collections in people's homes. I loved sharing pictures and stories when I came back to LA. So from the start, it was about sharing and somehow keeping a part of each place with me as I traveled.\nI also think that this big blue trunk in our living room had a lot to do with my interest. My mom was a model in the 70's and worked a ton with Guy Bourdin. Growing up, I would sit on the floor and go through that trunk full of magazine tears that my mom had saved. I would just pore over all these incredible fashion photographs. It's a wonder that I didn't end up going into fashion photography. I just think overall I learned early on about the power of photography.\nWHAT INSPIRES YOU: I love that when I'm shooting interiors, every shoot I do takes me into someone's world for a brief moment. I get to peek inside all of these different lives and meet so many interesting people who have chosen totally different paths. I spend a day or two with them and have such an adventure just getting to know their space and a little bit of their story. I love that.\nWhen I was at CalArts I discovered the work of Uta Barth and Wolfgang Tillmans - their way of working with and photographing the world around them really appealed to me. They gave me permission to pay attention to the mundane, the everyday and to find value and beauty there; especially to notice the details and imperfections. That really, the magic is in the details.\nAlso, I'm getting back into reading and it's the most amazing thing. The internet slowed me down for a decade but I was always a really voracious reader and now that I'm forcing myself to put my phone down and read, it's just incredible what happens to my sense of time and imagination.\nDO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE IMAGE THAT YOU'VE TAKEN: I started playing a game with myself on shoots. I try to find the shot that would otherwise get overlooked. That exercise of looking and noticing keeps me inspired for every shot and when I find it, it's generally my favorite.\nI remember being in a house and working on a portrait of the dining room and then noticing these incredible shadows all over the floor coming from the plants growing outside the window. Or doing an entertaining shoot and suddenly noticing that the mess the stylist had created while making the pie was actually so beautiful. Those are the moments and shots I remember and that give texture and life to the whole set of images.\nWHAT ARE ONE OR TWO OF YOUR FAVORITE MOMENTS FROM PAST SHOOTS: I was finishing up a 3 day shoot of an amazing house in Hawaii. There were 4 of us left at the end and we hopped into a golf cart to get the last shot--the exterior of the house at sunset from a couple of roads away. We'd had some grey rainy days during the shoot and even earlier that afternoon the weather had threatened to turn very wet but all of a sudden the light was just so beautiful, just totally lighting up the landscape and the house. We got the shot and then we took off in the golf cart all the way down to the beach and watched the last bits of light play out over the ocean.\nIF YOU WEREN'T A PHOTOGRAPHER WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING INSTEAD: Professional Instagrammer. (That's different, right?)\nWHAT SONG GETS STUCK IN YOUR HEAD MOST OFTEN: I'm a sucker for pop music so a lot of times whatever is in my head is probably the worst, most embarrassing song you could imagine.\nWHAT IS YOUR SPIRIT ANIMAL: I don't know if she's my spirit animal but she's my favorite animal--my cat, Hazel. She's a rambunctious Abyssinian who perches on my shoulder, plays with water and follows me around like a puppy. She sleeps under the covers and chirps at birds. She's pretty charming.\nIF YOU COULD ONLY EAT ONE FOOD FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD IT BE: I have the worst sweet tooth. People have described to me the sensation of feeling sick after too much dessert and I just cannot relate at all. I never get to that point, there is always room for more. So it would have to be some kind of cake. Probably chocolate.\nWHAT IS THE ONE ITEM OF CLOTHING THAT YOU WEAR MOST OFTEN: Bensimon sneakers! They were the shoe I grew up wearing and sort of like the Converse of france. Now I own a ridiculous amount of them, basically in every color. They've become a part of my shooting uniform. I like the slip-on kind best.\nWHAT IS THE HARDEST THING YOU'VE EVER DONE: When I finished art school I had no idea how to apply what I learned in the real world. So I went into production and eventually ended up as a producer at a visual effects company. Making the decision to leave that job (a well paying, benefits-giving job working with people I loved) in order to push myself creatively and attempt to build a career that would ultimately be more fulfilling, that was terrifying. I had to let go of all the things that were comfortable and allow things to unfold. Living with that uncertainty and trusting my own instincts, that was hard. Being years on the other side of the decision, it was the best decision I could have made.\nWHAT IS YOUR SECRET TALENT: I don't know if it's much of a secret but I'm a pretty good baker.\nWHAT IS THE STRANGEST THING IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR: I think it would be pretty shocking to people to see how much is rotting in my refrigerator.\nWHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE WAY TO UNWIND AFTER A BUSY DAY: I really love walking in my neighborhood. LA gets a bad rap for not being walkable but where I live, I'm just minutes away from a wild hillside called Elysian Park. I love to go for walks at the end of the day as the sun is going down. You get beautiful views of downtown but you're in the wild. And also on Friday nights during baseball season you can hike out there and watch the fireworks being set off at Dodger Stadium.\nAlso just going to dinner with friends and talking about not-work. That's pretty fun too.\nLaure on Set",

Kern produced geodetic and photogrammetric devices as well as cameras, binoculars, microscopes and film lenses. In the 1920s, Kern & Co was bought by Swiss optical instrument company Wild Heerbrugg. Wild Heerbrugg\u2019s founder, Heinrich Wild, was an engineer and inventor. He developed the world\u2019s first portable opto-mechanical theodolite (a precision measuring instrument) and in doing so formed the foundations of modern land surveying!\nOver the next century, Wild Heerbrugg continued developing total stations, lasers, levels, aerial systems and more. The Wild Heerbrugg brand merged with optical company Leica in 1989 and over the next few years the company was divided into smaller units. The Leica Camera brand was founded in 1996, while the Leica Geosystems brand was founded in 1997 to focus on land surveying equipment such as total stations, lasers and 3D scanners. Today, the general Leica name covers four independent companies: Leica Camera, Leica Geosystems, Leica Microsystems and Leica Biosystems. In 2005, global technology firm Hexagon AB, which is based in Sweden, bought Leica Geosystems.\nYou can read more about Leica\u2019s company history on their website.\nWe use Leica Geosystems total stations and surveying equipment because we believe Leica is the highest quality providers of surveying equipment on the market. We pride ourselves on our professionalism and Leica has literally centuries of experience!\nOne of Leica\u2019s total stations, from leica-geosystems.com\nIf you\u2019re thinking of getting a survey and have any questions about the particular equipment we use, drop us a message.\nBy Francesca Burke|December 1st, 2017|Fun Articles & Info|0 Comments",

We want our students graduating from grammar school adequately prepared for college.\nTMINI holds to the belief that a \"mind is a terrible thing to waste.\" Dr. McCurtis' dissertation found that the classroom teacher was the most important factor in ensuring student learning. Much time is placed on efforts to assist the teachers of Third World students to receive the best instructional practices that maximizes student learning.",

        "raw_content": "Italy is known to have multitude of tourist destinations, one of which is Pompeii. Since the 19th century, Pompeii\u2019s ruins have been attracting tourists from all over the globe, making it one of Italy\u2019s relevant attractions. What makes Pompeii an interesting place to visit is the volcanic ash that blanketed it after the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD. There\u2019s a lot to see and experience in Pompeii, that is why going to this place must be a part of your Italy tour.\nNestled not far from Naples, this destination is often a part of the Naples day trip tour. Pompeii is a large town, so expect attractions and interesting spots in every turn. The walk along the ruins of Pompeii must be the most-famous part of your tour. Being its priceless feature, the ruins of Pompeii is something you should not dare miss when in this side of Italy. The Amphitheatre is definitely the place to be when in Pompeii, as it is the oldest surviving amphitheater of the country and one of the highly-preserved in the world. Used in gladiator battles, the Amphitheatre can hold up to 20,000 spectators. Meanwhile, The Great Palaestra, which is just opposite the Amphitheatre, is worth visiting as well.\nThe archeological sites in Pompeii will make your jaw drop in amazement. Some of these include House of the Vettii, House of the Faun, Temple of Apollo, House of the Tragic Poet and The Basilica. Some of these ancient buildings contain impressive frescoes, including the intriguing Villa dei Misteri, the House of the Ancient Hunt and The Lupanar, where the subjects of the art include pornography, haunting scenes and the initiation of women into the Cult of Dionysus. The sites to explore in Pompeii seem endless, that is why it is best to join group tours so you will not miss out in any of the city\u2019s world-class attractions.\nBecause Pompeii is such a lovely place, it is not at all surprising if you wish to extend your stay. Most of the accommodations are close to the tourist attractions, so finding a place to sleep is a breeze. From high-end hotel accommodations such as Hotel Maiuri to simple yet homey bed and breakfast like B&B Pompeii The Faun, there is always a home for visitors having a holiday in Pompeii. Dining options are extensive as well. Take note, however, that you should be very careful in choosing where to eat, as the restaurants near the attractions can be very expensive. Pompeii\u2019s panino, a filled bread roll sold in food stands, is a must.\nPompeii\u2019s appeal goes beyond tourism. Much of the experience gained in touring this side of Italy is the fact that it remained strong despite the challenge caused by Vesuvius. Up to this day, excavations are being done to unearth new features, adding more reasons to visit Pompeii. With a bundle of attractions and sights to see, you surely will have a memorable time in Pompeii.",

        "raw_content": "Visitor numbers to US remain stagnant\nPost 9-11 security problems, lower airfares elsewhere and poor marketing by the US all add up to America\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s losing out in the world travel market, say recent reports.\nThe boom in international travel is not extended here despite the weak US dollar.\n\"Right now, there's some other worldwide destinations that are taking some of the marketplace,\" John Power, vice president of marketing and sales for Heli USA Airways in Las Vegas, told the AP. The weak US economy and competition from other countries are hurting business, he said.\nTravel industry experts say the US is missing an opportunity to make up for the shortfall in domestic tourism caused by high fuel prices.\nAccording to the U.N. World Tourism Organization, the United States had 51 million international visitors in 2000, more than 7% of the 682 million international arrivals worldwide. But as those travelers jumped to 846 million in 2006, the US saw roughly the same number of visitors as it used to -- dropping its share to 6 percent.\nMajor destinations such as Los Angeles, Orlando, San Francisco, Miami, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Boston all saw 20% to 34% fewer travelers in 2006 compared with 2000.\nOf the top 10 cities, only New York saw more visitors in 2006 than in 2000, with a 9%increase to 6.2 million arrivals, according to the US Commerce Department.\nNearly 26 million people traveled to the United States from overseas in 2000. But that dropped drastically after 9-11, according to data from the Commerce Department's Office of Travel & Tourism Industries. The number bottomed out in 2003 with 18 million overseas visitors.\nPart of the problem is the perception of nasty US attitudes toward foreigners starting at customs, said Roger Dow, president of the Travel Industry Association.\n\"The perception is in spades that we're less welcoming\" than other countries, he said.\nThe US should decode its complex entry rules and boost staffing at customs checkpoints, Mr Dow and others said.\nA frequent US visitor from Scotland, George Somerville was quoted as saying customs here a \"daunting prospect\" that requires fingerprints and retinal scans.\nTop destination cities are spending millions to promote themselves abroad and often compete with one another for foreign visitors, meaning less-obvious destinations with smaller marketing budgets have trouble being heard.\ncurrent numbers tell a different story.\nI'd double check your numbers....US dept. of Commerce reports substantial growth in overseas travellers to the US this year. also, according to Mass port, (Boston Airprt) 2007 marks the 6th consecutive increase in overseas travel to Boston based on number of seats filled...\nBy jhorsman, Friday, July 11, 2008\nWhat a difference a year makes! No more stagnation!\nGiven it is 2008, why are 2006 figures being used when international 2007 arrivals to the USA were issued in March 2008, and revised arrivals and spending was issued in June 2008? Furthermore, January -March 2008 data is available for arrivals to the USA and the story is very diffferent in 2007 and 2008 todate. Total international arrivals increased by 10% in 2007. Overseas arrivals excluding Canada and Mexico in 2007 also increased by 10% over 2006, although we have still not set a new record for overseas arrivals. The USA has set recrods for arrivals in 2007 for 9 of the top 20 markets. In 2008, to date, the USA has posted a 15% increase in total arrivals and overseas is 10% again. On July 4th, the World Tourism Organization released its 2007 world spending and arrivals totals. The USA share of world arrivals increased with its 10% growth rate, exceeding the world growth rate of 7%. Spending by international travelers within the USA has seen double-digit increases in 3 of the last 4 years to a record $96.7 billion; although the USA is still losing market share as are many of the other top world travel receipts generating markets. There is a shift occuring in the international travel flows today. The industry needs to adjust to these shifts just like all other countries. But, to do this, current figures need to be used, not 2 year old data.\nBy Ron Erdmann, Friday, July 11, 2008",

        "raw_content": "September 30, 2010 News & Opinion \u00bb Feature\nGabrielle Giffords and Jesse Kelly make the play for CD 8 voters\nIllustration by Rand Carlson; Design by Andrew Ling\nRepublican congressional candidate Jesse Kelly has a long list of grievances.\nHe's had it with a tax system that takes from the rich to give to the poor. He's sick of government workers who just \"suck off the system.\" He wants to scrap Medicare in order to get seniors \"off the public dole.\" He would \"love to eliminate\" Social Security. He's looking for a \"day of reckoning for liberals in both parties,\" because \"liberalism is destroying America.\"\nAt first glance, Kelly appears to be an ill fit for the moderate Republican bent of Southern Arizona's Congressional District 8, which is now represented by Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.\nKelly opposes abortions even for women who have been the victims of rape or incest. He doesn't believe gays could serve openly in the military without destroying morale. He believes Wall Street needs less regulation, not more. He's outraged that the Obama administration engaged in a \"shakedown\" to require oil giant BP to set aside $20 billion to aid victims of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. He's called for every federal department, with the exception of the military, to be cut by at least 20 percent\u2014and is ready to do away with some of them altogether, including the Department of Education and the Environmental Protection Agency.\nRepublican Jim Kolbe, who represented the area for more than two decades, routinely swatted down right-wing challengers in Kelly's mold.\nKelly\u2014who has received no endorsement from Kolbe this year\u2014is easily to the right of even Randy Graf, the former state lawmaker who captured the support of GOP conservatives in 2006, when Kolbe retired. Graf went on to lose to Giffords by 12 percentage points in a year that saw Democrats take over Congress.\nBut 2010 is no 2006. As Graf puts it: \"This is a whole different environment. The dynamics are night and day. The resistance we met won't be here this go-round. Nothing from 2006 applies to 2010. This is virgin territory.\"\nJesse Kelly is a newcomer to Southern Arizona politics. Until a month ago, when his own name was on the ballot, he'd never even voted in a GOP primary or a special election, casting ballots only in the general elections of 2004, 2006 and 2008.\nKelly grew up in Montana and attended Montana State University for a year before dropping out\u2014he says he \"absolutely hated it\"\u2014and joining the Marine Corps; he was part of the 2003 invasion of Iraq. After four years, he left the service in 2004, moved to Tucson and took a job with Don Kelly Construction, a regional construction company owned by his father. Last year, according to a financial disclosure filed with the Federal Election Commission, Kelly earned more than $88,000 in his management job with the company.\nKelly maintains on the campaign trail that the \"government doesn't create jobs; government crushes jobs.\" But Don Kelly Construction has found that government contracts can be very lucrative. By Kelly's own estimate, 90 percent of the firm's work comes from the government. The Tucson Weekly has reported that the company has received contracts worth tens of millions of dollars for projects funded with stimulus and earmark dollars, even though Kelly says he opposes the stimulus and would never seek earmarks for his Southern Arizona constituents if he were elected in November.\nGiffords, who supported the stimulus, says it's \"very hypocritical\" for Kelly to badmouth the program at the same time that he has his hand out to take stimulus dollars.\n\"If he doesn't like it, then don't take the stimulus funds,\" she says.\nKelly credits the stimulus bill as \"the final straw\" that pushed him into the race.\n\"This president and this Congress and this Senate have taken over, and they're expanding government,\" Kelly says. \"They're expanding spending; they're going to raise taxes; they want to tell you what kind of light bulbs you can keep in your house and what kind of health care you have to buy, and that's simply not America.\"\nIt's the kind of message that Republicans across the country are pushing as the unemployment rate remains in or near double-digits: Government has grown too large and is spending too much money.\nSo far, it appears to be an effective strategy. National pundits say Republicans look increasingly likely to win the 39 seats they need to take control of the House after losing it four years ago.\nCongressional District 8 is one of those targeted districts. It leans slightly Republican, with 37 percent of the voters identifying with the GOP, and 33 percent identifying as Democrats. But the key to victory is winning over the 30 percent that identify as independent.\nCharlie Cook of the Cook Political Report says the district is leaning Democratic, while Stuart Rothenberg of the Rothenberg Political Report calls the race a toss-up. Nate Silver, the stats wizard behind political prognostication website fivethirtyeight.com and a New York Times contributor, says Giffords has a 56 percent chance of hanging on in November.\nMargaret Kenski, who has polled Southern Arizona voters for more than a quarter-century, says that Giffords' votes for health-care reform, the stimulus and cap-and-trade legislation are out of step with the voters in the district.\nBut she adds that Kelly's far-right views are \"no more in step with them than she is.\"\nKenski says the central question in the race is \"whether the general unhappiness with the Obama administration is going to be enough\" to carry Kelly to victory.\nKelly has successfully \"cultivated people who are terribly upset,\" but Kenski says he runs a risk in the general election if he continues to denounce moderate voters as Republicans in Name Only.\n\"He has to do something to appeal to RINOs,\" Kenski says. \"He can't win without them. Whether he thinks he can, I don't know.\"\nIt's the same problem that Republicans are facing with U.S. Senate candidates Sharron Angle in Nevada and Christine O'Donnell in Delaware: A far-right candidate might have what it takes to win the primary, but have less appeal to general-election voters.\nThe goal, as always, is getting the most votes in November.\n\"Fifty percent plus one does not agree with what's happened in the last two years,\" Kenski says about voters, \"but 50 percent plus one doesn't agree with Mr. Kelly, either.\"\nTeam Giffords is well aware that the political environment does not favor the incumbent.\n\"It's a tough race,\" says campaign manager Rodd McLeod, who also ran Giffords' 2006 campaign against Randy Graf.\nWhile no nonpartisan polls have been released, a survey by a GOP-leaning group in the days following the August primary showed a neck-and-neck race, with both Giffords and Kelly capturing the support of 44 percent of the surveyed voters.\nGiffords, who didn't have a primary fight, has a big cash advantage over Kelly. While new FEC reports aren't due until the middle of next month, reports showing activity through early August revealed that Giffords had nearly $1.9 million on hand, while Kelly was down to less than $79,000.\nWhile the National Republican Congressional Committee has not yet announced plans to spend money in CD 8, Kelly has been getting a boost from third-party groups that have been hammering Giffords. These groups\u2014including Conservatives for Congress, the 60 Plus Association and Americans for Prosperity\u2014have combined to spend about $300,000 on televised attack ads.\nBut Giffords has had plenty of money to launch her own air war in recent weeks. In addition to testimonial spots featuring Cochise County ranchers\u2014designed to inoculate her against attacks that she has not done enough to secure the border\u2014Giffords has gone on the attack with ads that publicize the more controversial statements that Kelly made during the primary.\nOn the morning after Kelly won the primary, the Giffords campaign already had an ad airing that hammered Kelly for his comments that he'd \"love to privatize\" Social Security.\n\"During the primary, he'd been very vocal about saying he'd like to phase it out, and he'd like to eliminate it,\" Giffords says. \"Now, after the election, he says he wants to protect Social Security. To now change horses midstream, he's not being truthful.\"\nKelly has shown little affection for Social Security. He has called it the \"biggest Ponzi scheme in history\" and says the nation has no choice but to privatize the retirement program.\nGiffords, by contrast, calls it a vital government program that has kept seniors out of poverty.\n\"The system has worked for 75 years,\" Giffords says. \"It is cherished. Without it, more than 50 percent of our seniors would fall below the poverty line.\"\nGiffords generally favors keeping the retirement age at 67 for maximum benefits, but she says that Congress does need to tweak the system to keep it solvent, perhaps by raising the current tax cap on Social Security earnings, or by means-testing, so elderly Americans who have significant retirement assets receive a smaller benefit.\nBut she opposes allowing the taxes that now pay for Social Security benefits to be turned into privately owned accounts that could be invested in the stock market.\n\"If people want to invest their own personal dollars in the stock market, absolutely,\" Giffords says. \"But the stock market is risky.\"\nKelly has a much more radical proposal. He has embraced Congressman Paul Ryan's \"Roadmap for America's Future\" Plan, which allows current recipients and anyone older than 55 to continue to receive Social Security. But anyone younger than 55 would have the option of putting as much as 41 percent of their Social Security taxes into private accounts that could be invested in the stock market or savings accounts.\nThe fundamental problem with that proposal: Diverting as much as 40 percent of the revenues into private accounts means that the system will have much less money to pay benefits now and would be driven into bankruptcy much sooner.\nKelly suggests that the money to pay benefits could come from income taxes, even though he's proposing to sharply cut income taxes as well. Nonetheless, Kelly says that his overall plan will result in \"robust economic growth\" that will ensure enough tax dollars are collected to support the Social Security program.\nBut UA economist Gerald Swanson, author of America the Broke, is skeptical that Kelly's idea could work, because there's no money available to make up that shortfall.\n\"Right now, all of government that is not an entitlement\u2014all of it\u2014is being financed by borrowing,\" says Swanson, who has been warning about the dangers of deficit spending since the early 1990s.\nWhile Kelly has been telling audiences that the private accounts would be guaranteed, he said last week that he didn't think the government should step in to bail out the accounts in the event of a downturn in the stock market. He says there's no need to do so, because stock market downturns are never serious enough to require such a guarantee.\nThat position runs counter to the Ryan Roadmap that Kelly says he supports. The Roadmap includes this guarantee: \"Individuals who choose to invest in personal accounts will be ensured every dollar they place into an account will be guaranteed, even after inflation. With the recent market downturn, individuals must be assured their retirement is secure. By guaranteeing the dollars put into an account, individuals can be assured that a large-scale market downturn will not cost them their Social Security personal accounts.\"\nBut Kelly says he doesn't plan to bail out anyone who makes a bad investment.\n\"The government stays out of it,\" Kelly says. \"That's the guarantee.\"\nWhile Kelly says that the Giffords campaign is lying about his plans for Social Security, he has had his own troubles with the truth regarding the program.\nAs recently as last week, Kelly told an audience that Giffords doesn't have to pay into the Social Security program, but can instead put her Social Security taxes into a private account.\nHowever, Giffords pays the same Social Security taxes as other working Americans. Like all members of Congress, she can invest other retirement funds in the Thrift Savings Plan, an investment program for federal employees that's similar to private-sector 401(k) plans.\nTeam Giffords is also running ads going after Kelly's promise to scrap Medicare.\nKelly has said that, as with Social Security, benefits have to continue for people now in the system. However, he'd like to eliminate Medicare in the future and shift to a system in which elderly Americans purchase health insurance from private providers so they \"won't be on the public dole.\" He said during the primary that he'd use tax credits to help people afford the program.\nMore recently, Kelly has adopted the Ryan Roadmap plan on this issue as well. It calls for elderly Americans to get a voucher that does not keep pace with the rate of health-care inflation costs. Anyone under 55 would be forced into the new system.\nGiffords opposes moving to a voucher system that provides funding for private insurance companies to insure elderly Americans. She points out that the Ryan Roadmap has gotten little support, even from Congressional Republicans, because the proposals aren't popular with the public.\n\"It's outside the mainstream,\" Giffords says.\nKelly has responded to Giffords' ad by saying that she supported a $500 billion cut in Medicare benefits for seniors. It's the same claim made in television ads that were run by the 60 Plus Association.\nThe nonpartisan FactCheck.org, a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center, calls the claim of a $500 billion cut \"misleading.\"\nFactCheck.org's analysis notes: \"The law calls for $555 billion in cuts in future growth of the program\u2014over 10 years. The total projected cost of Medicare over that time, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, is $7.1 trillion, even with the cuts.\n\"CBO predicts that federal outlays for Medicare in fiscal year 2020 will be $929 billion, compared with projected spending of $519 billion this year,\" the analysis continues. \"So the program isn't being cut below existing levels, or even stopped in its tracks. It will simply grow slightly less than it would have otherwise\u2014about 7 percent less.\"\nKelly has also complained that Giffords has eliminated Medicare Advantage, a program that roughly one of out four Medicare recipients use. Medicare Advantage was designed to use private-sector insurance companies to improve service while lowering costs. But instead of costing less, Medicare Advantage ended up costing about 14 percent more than traditional Medicare.\n\"That's just not fair,\" Giffords says. \"If Medicare is something that every American should get, you shouldn't get more than some other Medicare beneficiary if you pick a different plan.\"\nThe health-care reform bill passed by Democrats earlier this year gave the federal government more ability to negotiate with insurers, even as it required them to do more for Medicare Advantage patients.\nThe New York Times reported last week that private insurance companies are still contracting with the government\u2014just at lower rates.\nGiffords argues that it's a sign that Medicare Advantage is not going away, as Kelly maintains. Instead, she says, taxpayers and recipients are getting a better deal.\nShe points to other benefits in the health-care reform law that have now kicked in, including rebates for seniors' prescription drugs and requirements that insurance companies cover the costs of preventative check-ups.\nKelly's economic strategies are, to say the least, a work in progress. At times, they seem to slide into the delusional.\n\"We need robust economic growth in this country,\" Kelly said at an appearance last week. \"We need to welcome businesses not only to expand, but to come back from all over the world. ... To get out of this debt, when you hear things like 2 percent growth in GDP or 3 percent growth in GDP\u2014that's gross domestic product\u2014we need 10 percent. And we need it for decades. We need 20 to 30 years of 10 percent GDP growth to get out of this.\"\nUA economist Swanson calls that kind of growth in the Gross Domestic Product \"highly unlikely.\"\nAs Swanson explains: \"We're such a large economy. When you have a $14 trillion economy, 10 percent growth would be $1.4 trillion new GDP dollars each year. We haven't seen that kind of growth, to my knowledge, post-World War II ever.\"\nJust last week, Kelly told the press for the first time that he supports a new national sales tax of 8.5 cents per dollar on goods and services.\nThroughout the primary, Kelly said the country should sharply lower taxes for its wealthiest residents by establishing a 10 percent flat income tax, because \"if 10 percent is good enough for Jesus Christ, it's good enough for the federal government.\"\nAt a debate in Green Valley, he said he didn't care how much money the new tax would raise: He'd set the federal budget to fit within it, whatever it was.\nBut last week, after once again telling voters that the country could implement a 10 percent flat income tax for all of its citizens, he admitted that the numbers wouldn't pencil out.\nInstead, he said he now supports a different plan that has a 10 percent income-tax rate for up to $50,000 in income for individual filers, and 25 percent on any remaining income.\nTo make those numbers pencil out\u2014and to get rid of the corporate income tax, as Kelly also wants to do\u2014he supports creating that new 8.5 percent national sales tax on goods and services. That would come on top of the sales taxes that state residents now pay.\nGiffords favors keeping the current tax system and closing a portion of the deficit by repealing the Bush tax cuts for the top 2 percent of earners. She'd leave the tax cuts in place for the rest of the country.\n\"I think long-term solutions to the debt are not wacky tax schemes that are going to raise taxes on the working class, the middle class and the lower class while eliminating taxes for corporations and the wealthiest Americans,\" Giffords says.\nJesse Kelly is facing an inquisitive senior about the recent television ad from the Giffords campaign that suggests Kelly supports a 23 percent sales tax.\n\"She's lying her face off about that,\" Kelly tells the woman.\nHe quickly explains his position: It's not that he thinks the 23 percent sales tax is a bad idea, as long as it's coupled with eliminating other taxes. But what he really wants to do is lower income taxes to 10 percent, straight across the board. The idea that he supports increasing the sales tax is just a smear from the Giffords' campaign.\nThe woman asks again about the 23 percent sales tax. \"It's a consumer tax?\"\n\"That's right,\" Kelly says.\n\"Which is what I think we should do,\" she says.\n\"There you go,\" says Kelly. \"No income tax, no death tax, no nothing.\"\n\"Is that what you're for?\" she asks.\n\"Yes, ma'am,\" he replies, affirming his support for a 23 percent sales tax\u2014after he'd just accused Giffords' campaign of lying about his support for such a plan.\n\"All right, I'll volunteer for you,\" she says.\n\"Thank you, ma'am,\" Kelly says. \"You made it easy.\"",

How these data can be interpreted in relation to the social and cultural framework of prehistoric societies in Mesoamerica is the subject of this book.\nNine chapters written by some of the most well known and respected scholars in the field offer readers an in-depth look at key advances from the past fifteen years. These scholars examine ethnoarchaeological studies and the Preclassic/Formative, Classic, and Postclassic periods and cover geographic areas from eastern to central Mesoamerica. In a series of case studies, contributors address a range of new and developing theories and methods for inferring the technological, organizational, and social dimensions of pottery economics, and draw on a range of sociopolitical examples. Specific topics include the impacts and costs of innovations, the role of the producer in technological choices, the outcomes when errors in vessel formation are tolerated or rectified, the often undocumented multiple lives and uses of ceramic pieces, and the difficulties associated with locating and documenting ceramic production areas in tropical lowlands.\nA compelling collection that clearly integrates and synthesizes a wide array of data, this book is the definitive text on pottery economics in Mesoamerica and an important contribution to the fields of anthropology, archaeology, ancient history, and the economics of pre-industrial societies.\n1 .

        "title": "Understanding Open Source and Free Software Licensing, by Andrew M St Laurent",
        "raw_content": "Understanding Open Source and Free Software Licensing Andrew M St Laurent\nreviewed by Michael Fraser\nThe picture on the cover of Understanding Open Source and Free Software Licensing by Andrew M. St. Laurent is a 19th century engraving of a shootout at a railway in the American West. What early conclusions should we draw from that less than innocent image? Leaving aside men with guns in the Wild West, Understanding Open Source is an in-depth study of software licences commonly used with the release of open source or free (as in speech) software. The book is written by a US lawyer but not necessarily for lawyers (though I am certain there are lawyers who would benefit from reading this work) nor just for US citizens (ditto).\nThere are over fifty approved licences listed by the Open Source Initiative (OSI) [1], together with a review process for further licences. Clearly, it would be a work of weight (and dare I say not terribly interesting) that examined each one in detail. A quick look at SourceForge.net, home to the largest number of open source software projects [2], reveals projects to have been licensed under most of the OSI-approved licences with by far the most popular being the GNU General Public License (GPL) (41067 projects), GNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL) (6596 projects), and Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) License (4271 projects). The Apache Software License, the Artistic License, and MIT License all have in the region of 750-1500 projects each. Following this pattern Understanding Open Source provides a close reading of these together with the Academic Free License and Mozilla Public License.\nIn addition to the software licences, St. Laurent has included a chapter dedicated to the QT, Artistic and Creative Commons licences and a further chapter on non-OSS licences which incorporate some OSS-like elements. The latter mainly comprise the Sun Community Source licence [3] and the Microsoft Shared Source Initiative. However, Microsoft's contribution is only discussed briefly and cast aside as, `it is, at least at this time, little more than a branded extension of Microsoft's current commercial licensing practices' (p.145).\nThe bulk of the book, therefore, deals with individual licences (four chapters out of seven) with the remaining three chapters providing: a basic overview of copyright, licences in general and the definition of open source; the legal implications of entering into software contracts based on open source/free software; and finally, a chapter dedicated to issues particular to software development.\nI approached Understanding Open Source as Co-ordinator of the Research Technologies Service (RTS) [4], a section which contains a significant number of projects piloting new technologies and which has a commitment to open standards and the appropriate use of open source software. Of course, I should note that the RTS (as are others in a similar position within the UK) are ably assisted by OSS Watch [5], the JISC-funded open source software advisory service, in our decision-making concerning the development and deployment of open source software. There still remains the need, however, for detailed guidance on single issues, which is what this book aims to do for licensing.\nGiven that the audience of the book is not necessarily lawyers, I also approached it with three questions which are based on actual cases recently encountered:\nThere are some caveats with this approach. First, as with many such questions the initial answer is always going to be `it depends'. But at least having an overview of the dependencies is useful. Secondly, even if you do work out an answer, don't always expect absolute truth. Licences, like the Bible, may give the impression of having been God-given but actually they're the work of human hands, attempting to disambiguate language in order to convey common meaning, but often failing. In which circumstance the lawyers will often direct us towards that other semi-divine institution, the judgement of the courts. And it is the court which will ultimately interpret its meaning in law. This applies as much to the use of licences or contracts originally developed in the US (as most open source licences are) - and used within the UK - as it does to licences written with English law in mind.\nIt is not the purpose of this review to provide the answers to any of the above questions, but rather to give the reader some sense of whether the book under review will help to provide the answers.\nStart at the end of the book if you are trying to choose an open source licence. Sections in chapter 6, on the legal impacts, outline some of the issues particular to open source/free software licensing (e.g. Violation of a licence risks nullifying any benefits accrued from improving licensed code; or how to join together material from two or more programs released under different licences). Chapter 7 provides a relatively brief discussion of the issues inherent in open source licences relating to software development, including a section on the risks and opportunities of project forking and an outline of the nature of the choices faced by a project manager or software developer. Perhaps, not unexpectedly (and in keeping with the no-easy-answers theme): the conclusion drawn is that `while a certain license is the best for a given project, particularly when a substantial amount of work has already been done under that license, such decisions depend largely on circumstance and on the taste of the project developer' (p.176). Elsewhere, it's noted that the taste might not always be pragmatic, 'The thesis is that the licensor's choice to use the GPL license is, in some sense, a political one, and that choice should be protected and defended against encroachment' (p.45 on \u00a77 of the GPL). However, a deeper consideration of rights management within a software development environment would have been useful at this point.\nHaving to proceed to the end of the book is a symptom of the book's format which does not lend itself to such linear decision-making. The detailed commentary on each of the selected licences is useful if you already have an idea of which licence you wish to employ for your own software (or have modified and plan to distribute an already-existing open source application) and wish to understand the implications of a particular clause. However, if you are still at an earlier point in the decision-making process then the inclusion of a flowchart would have been helpful in order that a project, for example, might determine answers to some of the more basic questions, e.g. Who actually owns the software in whole or part -- you, your employer, a consortium? Are you sure you know? Is the software wholly original or derivative in part or whole? Do you care if others modify and re-distribute the software under a different licence, even a closed licence? What disclaimers of liability or warranty do you want or are permitted to include? How much of this would you be prepared to stand up and claim in court? Having answers to starter questions such as these are crucial to both the development of software in an open source context or the modification and distribution of someone else's open source software.\nCommentary on complex and often misunderstood licences like the GPL and LGPL, for example, is as clear as one could expect. As with many attempts to explain legal clauses for the general reader there is always a risk that one over-burdened sentence is replaced by a paragraph equally weighty in meaning. Whilst some of the commentary suffers from not enough re-writing in simple terms, the author himself, fortunately, does not hold back from drawing attention to inconsistencies or ambiguity within a licence. For example, on the Academic Free License, `There are problems with this first sentence. First, it is not immediately clear that the licensor intends that the provisions of this license also govern the derivative works created by the licensee and derivative works created by the licensee's licensees and so forth' (p.27). Or, concerning the LGPL, `This bar on the creation of derivative works other than libraries from LGPL-licensed works makes the LGPL essentially useless as a license for such works. Creators of such works should look to the GPL or another open source license' (p.53). Or, finally, the Mozilla Public License 1.1, `As with many provisions of this license, its [\u00a73.4(c)] legal effects are unclear at best' (p.72).\nKnowing the substantial differences between the licensing models helps to answer the second question relating to inclusion of material from open source software within a `closed' or proprietary package. Clearly the company needs to read the terms of the licence. For example, what may be permitted in the BSD and Apache licences (so long as the copyright notices are reproduced) becomes somewhat more complicated in the GPL or LGPL where the meaning of `to include material' is crucial (perhaps it's actually `mere aggregation' or a `linked' software library). The author is also eager to dispel myths on this subject, `Contrary to the beliefs of some, the GPL does not require that software running on a GPL-licensed operating system be licensed under the GPL' (p.82). (As he notes elsewhere, the GPL is not contagious like a cold. Software doesn't catch it by mere proximity - it needs to derived from or integrated with GPL-licensed code.)\nFinally, there is a section within the book which discusses the Creative Commons licences which although not intended for software, certainly draw upon the open source way of life [7]. By comparison, the Creative Commons licences are models of clarity (and also probably the only open source-like licence to have a version adapted for UK usage [8]). It happens that the entire Understanding Open Source & Free Software Licensing is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs License. The commentary in the body of the book relates to the `Attribution-ShareAlike' 1.0/2.0 version of the licence. However, the `Attribution-NoDeriv[ative]s' version is reproduced as an appendix. As you may imagine this neatly answers my final question and clarifies the rights I have:\nwhile at all times giving the original author credit and making clear the terms of the licence in any subsequent distribution.\nUnderstanding Open Source is a text-rich work. There are no attempts to visualise the issues through any other means than writing about it. The use of comparative tables, flowcharts and other illustrations would have helped mitigate the risk of missing an important observation simply because it was buried in the discussion of section 2.1(b) of a licence in which you assumed you had no interest. Having said that, making the effort to read the book in a linear fashion before using it as a reference work certainly increased my understanding of the practical implications of the freedoms and benefits granted under open source/free licences. I can certainly recommend this book to anyone who has a responsibility for reading software licence agreements whether prior to clicking `I accept' on an installer, or as part of the process of creating, building on and distributing open source software. I am sure institutional legal services or technology-transfer units will find the book to be of interest, especially if the queries about open source software are only now beginning to arrive in their inbox.\nAnd if you want to write your own open source software licence? Read the book and then consult a lawyer.\n(1) Open Source Initiative (OSI) http://www.opensource.org/\n(2) SourceForge.net: OSI-approved open source http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=14\n(3) The OSI has recently approved an open source licence submitted by Sun Microsystems, the Common Development and Distribution licence (CDDL) based on the Mozilla Public License 1.1.

        "title": "If the price is right, Cowboys should keep Sean Lee - UltraSports.TV",
        "raw_content": "Home NFL If the price is right, Cowboys should keep Sean Lee\nFRISCO, Texas \u2014 When Sean Lee walked out of the Los Angeles Coliseum after the Dallas Cowboys\u2019 divisional-round loss to the Los Angeles Rams a month ago, the linebacker said he had a decision to make regarding his future.\nHe wanted to get away for a little bit, talk to his family and think things through.\n\u201cObviously the health is the major issue,\u201d Lee said outside the locker room. \u201cTrying to stay healthy is something I need to do if I want to keep playing.\u201d\nAfter that time away, the feeling from those close to Lee is that he wants to continue to keep playing. He wants to continue to play for the Cowboys, if they\u2019ll have him, but would be open to playing elsewhere if there is no opportunity in Dallas.\nHe turns 33 in July and played in seven games last season because of a recurring hamstring issue that has limited his effectiveness the past two seasons.\nA torch was passed to Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch in 2018 with Lee injured.\nVander Esch led the Cowboys in tackles with 176, the most in team history by a rookie, according to the Cowboys coaches\u2019 tally. He was added to the Pro Bowl, becoming the Cowboys\u2019 first rookie defender to play in the all-star game since 1981. Smith finished second on the team with 150 tackles and had four sacks and 13 quarterback pressures. He also had five tackles for loss, four pass deflections, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.\nSmith and Vander Esch credited Lee for their development.\n\u201cYou take pride in a guy who cares so much about football, prepares every week the way he does, that\u2019s a guy you want to give everything to. Jaylon\u2019s the same way,\u201d Lee said late in the regular season about Vander Esch and Smith. \u201cYou come into meetings and you see young guys beginning their career and you want to do everything to help them because you see yourself in them.\u201d\nThe Cowboys will now have to determine if Lee\u2019s presence, leadership and work ethic are valuable for 2019. If money were no object, the answer would be: without a doubt. But they will have to figure out the economics, because everything has a price in a salary-cap league.\nThough it is possible to keep Lee\u2019s contract as is, it\u2019s not really a viable option. He is set to count $10 million against the cap with a $7 million base salary. If he returns, it would not be in a full-time role with the way Smith and Vander Esch played in 2018. Making that kind of commitment to a player with Lee\u2019s injury history would not be prudent.\nThe Cowboys would save Lee\u2019s $7 million base salary and have $3.075 million in dead money against the cap as the result of the remaining prorated deal. That\u2019s a nice bit of change to have if the Cowboys want to be big-time players in free agency, which executive vice president Stephen Jones has already said is not in the plans.\nThe Cowboys have plenty of cap room to re-sign their key players, such as DeMarcus Lawrence and Cole Beasley, and give long-term deals to Amari Cooper, Dak Prescott, Byron Jones and Ezekiel Elliott before they can hit the market in either 2020 or 2021. But an added $7 million wouldn\u2019t hurt.\nThe Cowboys know Smith and Vander Esch are the future. Smith turns 24 in June. Vander Esch turned 23 last week. There are ways to keep Lee at a reduced salary while also allowing him the opportunity to compete for a role with Smith and Vander Esch.\nAs he worked back into the defense late in the season, the plan was to rotate the three linebackers, but circumstances did not allow that to happen. Having Lee as an insurance policy should something happen to Smith or Vander Esch during the season would help.\nThe Cowboys have Joe Thomas entering the final year of his deal, but starting strongside linebacker Damien Wilson is set to become a free agent. He could find a bigger role elsewhere. Every team has a need for linebacker depth and, at the right price, Lee would be the right fit.\nThe Cowboys can reduce Lee\u2019s salary, which would create a cap savings, and then allow him the chance to earn back some of the money based on playing-time incentives.\nWhen Lee signed his seven-year extension in 2013, his injury history played a role. He was coming off a season in which he had played six games because of a toe injury. He agreed to deal that paid him more if he played more. He would undoubtedly be open to a similar concept in the final year of the contract.\nIn the first three games of the season, Lee had 25 tackles. He had a half-sack and a tackle for loss, two quarterback pressures and a pass deflection. He still got the job done.\nThen the injuries hit, and Smith and Vander Esch proved worthy to be on the field a lot. Lee, however, never let the frustration he felt from the injury affect his approach or the team in 2018.\nThe benefit of his return in 2019 outweighs the concern, if the price is right.\n\u201cThat\u2019s just the guy he is, man,\u201d safety Jeff Heath said. \u201cHe\u2019s a very selfless leader. He\u2019s [about] what\u2019s in the best interest of the team. As difficult as that can be sometimes, [Lee] handled it as good as you can handle it. He was still just as engaged, just as locked in as he always is, practiced just as hard. Really, all the stuff you come to expect from Sean.\u201d\nPrevious article\u2018The Rock better watch out\u2019: How James Harrison plans to sack Hollywood\nNext articleSeahawks may need Shaquem Griffin to replace K.J.

        "raw_content": "Can I divorce? 2\nWhat are the grounds for divorce? 3\nYour petition for divorce - Form D8 4\nResponding to a divorce petition 5\nApplying for a decree nisi 6\nApplying for a decree absolute 7\nSharing out the marriage assets - Form E 8\nAround 40 per cent of marriages will end in divorce, according to the Office of National Statistics. Nevertheless, divorce remains one of life\u2019s most stressful experiences. If you find that your marriage is at an end, you may find this step-by-step guide useful. It walks you through the divorce process and tells you what you need to do at every stage.\nA straightforward divorce will take around five to six months. However, if there are disputes along the way (e.g. over money or custody of children) then the process could take considerably longer.\nCan I divorce?\nIn order to begin divorce proceedings, one spouse must apply for a divorce petition.\nDivorce applications under Scottish law are different from those in England and Wales. They are subject to residency rules that can be complicated, so you should consult a solicitor. Broadly speaking, at least one spouse needs to be domiciled (i.e. have their permanent home) in the country whose laws you wish to divorce under.\nHow soon can I divorce?\nYou can\u2019t divorce if you have been married for less than one year. However, it is still possible to arrange a judicial separation (on grounds similar to the grounds for divorce), or (under certain circumstances) to have the marriage annulled.\nEven if you have been married for more than a year, a judicial separation may still be used as a way to slow down the divorce process and allow more time for mediation and reflection.\nThere are a limited number of valid reasons for divorce under UK law. One option is to establish that the other spouse is at fault, by showing that they have committed one of the following:\nDesertion (for more than two years)\nAnother acceptable reason for divorce is separation of the spouses. Divorce can happen after two years\u2019 separation with consent of the other spouse, or after five years without consent. You can find out much more here about the legal grounds for divorce.\nYour petition for divorce - Form D8\nThe spouse who applies for divorce is called the petitioner. The other spouse is the respondent. To apply, the petitioner must send the following documents to your local divorce centre.\nForm D8 (divorce petition)\nThe divorce centre will charge a fee (currently \u00a3550) for starting the divorce proceedings. You can find out more here about the costs of divorce.\nWithin a few days, the divorce centre will send Form D9H (notice of issue of petition) to both the petitioner and the respondent. The respondent (or their instructed solicitor) will also receive a copy of Form D8.\nHere you can find some tips for completing Form D8.\nResponding to a divorce petition\nIf you are the respondent, then within seven days of receiving Form D9H you must send Form D10 (acknowledgement of service) to the divorce centre. On the form you must state whether or not you intend to defend the petition, whether you dispute any claims for costs, and whether you agree on the arrangements for the children.\nIf you intend to defend the divorce, then you must send your defence (known as your \u2018Answer\u2019) to the divorce centre within 29 days of receiving the petition. Otherwise, the petitioner can notify the divorce centre that you mean to defend the divorce.\nIf you are the petitioner and the respondent does not respond at all, you will have to use Form D89 (request for bailiff service) to ask the court bailiff to serve the divorce paperwork instead.\nHere are some tips for completing Form D10.\nApplying for a decree nisi\nIf you are the petitioner, and your spouse (the respondent) does not choose to defend the divorce, you can apply for a decree nisi. This is the document that states the date on which your marriage will end, unless a good legal reason is presented not to grant a divorce.\nYou will need to submit form D84 (application for a decree nisi) with the help of your solicitor. You should also first read the guidance at Gov.uk.\nYour decree nisi should be pronounced by around 5 weeks after your application. You don\u2019t have to be present for this, as the divorce centre will send you and the respondent Form D29 (decree nisi) by post.\nApplying for a decree absolute\nThe final step in your divorce proceedings is the decree absolute. This makes the decree nisi (which was conditional) final and binding.\nYou can apply for your decree absolute 6 weeks and 1 day after your decree nisi is pronounced, by submitting form D36 (notice of application for decree nisi to be made absolute). This should only take a few days to process, and then you will be sent Form D37 (decree absolute).\nThere may be circumstances in which you do not want to decree absolute to take effect as soon as this (for instance if the ancillary relief process has not concluded, meaning you might face financial difficulties). In this situation, talk to your solicitor.\nOnce the decree absolute is granted, you and your ex-spouse are legally divorced. However, divorce proceedings do not include financial settlements. The matter of \u2018who gets what\u2019 is handled in a separate process called ancillary relief.\nWhen both spouses agree to a divorce, the divorce process itself is usually quite simple. However, disputes are more likely to arise over how the matrimonial assets (savings, family home etc.) are divided between you and your ex-spouse. This is sometimes called the ancillary relief process.\nWhat is Form E?\nForm E is the document you must fill in to summarise your financial situation, so a fair settlement can be achieved. You must provide accurate information, but it is a good idea to give as much detail as necessary to put across 'your side of the story'. A Form E that is completed well can be a useful asset in a favourable settlement, so consult both your solicitor and a financial adviser to help you fill it in.\nFollow our guide to completing Form E.\nSometimes it is possible to achieve a clean break, meaning that after the division of the matrimonial assets, all financial relations between you and your spouse will cease. However, in many cases a clean break is not possible.\nKey issues that can prevent a clean break include:\nJoint pension arrangements\nUnequal earning potential (e.g. if one spouse was the main or sole earner)\nIn such cases the court may issue a maintenance order, whereby one ex-spouse continues to make regular payments to the other. However, maintenance orders are usually time-limited, to allow for a clean break in the future.\nWhat about the family home?\nIf you and your ex-spouse are joint owners of your matrimonial home, you both have the right to remain in the property unless the court issues an exclusion order. You should talk to your solicitor about the various ways to achieve an exclusion order.\nYour home is probably the marriage's biggest asset, and there are various different ways you can share it between you. You'll also have to decide what to do about any shared mortgage. Find out more about what happens to your home in a divorce.\nArrangements for the children in a divorce\nUnless both parties in the divorce agree otherwise, the court will tend to assume that any young children from the marriage will stay with their mother in the family home. In such cases the whole property may be transferred to the ex-wife, while the ex-husband will receive other assets (e.g. the full value of his pensions) in a process called offsetting.\nHere you can find out much more about making arrangements for your children in a divorce and child maintenance.\nThe financial settlement process can be the most complex, stressful and costly part of a divorce, so the help of both a solicitor and a financial adviser is strongly recommended.",

And he's happy with his relative anonymity. Check out this story on USATODAY.com: https://usat.ly/2C217ag\nCarly Mallenbaum, USA TODAY Published 1:05 p.m. ET Dec. 31, 2017\nThe former auto racer will be the serial dater for the 22nd season of the show. Wochit\nRecognize this 'Bachelor' star? Arie Luyendyk Jr. returns to the reality dating franchise, five years after being a runner up, to find his wife.(Photo11: Lou Rocco, ABC)\nArie Luyendyk Jr. would be the first to tell you that he\u2019s \u201cnot the typical Bachelor.\u201d\nThe 36-year-old star of ABC's The Bachelor (Monday, 8 ET/PT) says he \u201cmight not have a six-pack, and I have some grey hair, but I feel like I deserve this.\u201d\nLike most Bachelor stars, Luyendyk is a handsome castoff from its summer spinoff, The Bachelorette. But the race-car driver (also a real-estate broker) last appeared in 2012, when Emily Maynard picked Jef Holm over Luyendyk, so Bachelor Nation didn\u2019t anticipate his return.\nHe's older than most previous Bachelors, and far less active on social media.\n\"No, I won't be selling products (on Instagram) after this. So that's pretty much a guarantee.\"\nEven contestants on Luyendyk\u2019s season predicted a different Bachelor would headline the new season: a certain gap-toothed charmer who wasn't ready to propose to Rachel Lindsay last season.\nPeter Kraus was favorited to become the next Bachelor, after he came in second place on Rachel Lindsay's season. (Photo11: Craig Sjodin, ABC)\n\u201cI figured it would be Peter (Kraus),\u201d says Jacqueline Trumbull, a 26-year-old now in the running for Luyendyk's heart. \u201cBut I was not at all disappointed that it was Arie.\u201d\nAnother contestant, 22-year-old Bekah Martinez, says, \u201cI had a huge crush on Peter watching last season of (The Bachelorette). But it seems like he wasn\u2019t really ready to commit to marriage. So it\u2019s cool that Arie seems like he\u2019s ready to fall in love and ready to find a wife.\"\nLuyendyk confirms that although he was \u201cpretty far down the road\u201d in being cast as the bachelor in an earlier season, \"I think I\u2019m probably in a better mindset now\" to find a partner among 29 single ladies on reality TV.\nArie Luyendyk Jr. meets contestant Jacqueline Trumball, on Season 22 of the show. (Photo11: Paul Hebert, ABC)\n\"I\u2019ve slowed down a little bit,\" he says, and with his real-estate job he's home more often. \"I\u2019m a little older. And I think with age comes a little bit more wisdom.\"\nFor Luyendyk, wisdom also comes fromgood note-taking.\n\u201cI wrote everything down in a journal, and so I re-read that\u201d before becoming the Bachelor, he says. \u201cI always wanted reassurance\" from Emily. \"So the women I feel I have a really strong connection with, I\u2019m making sure I\u2019m very present with them and making them feel as comfortable as possible, because this is a high-stress situation.\u201d\nBekah Martinez, here hugging Arie Luyendyk Jr., admits she had a huge crush on Peter Kraus, but she's \"feeling great\" about spending time with the Bachelor. (Photo11: Paul Hebert, ABC)\nIs Luyendyk, the heartbroken son of a two-time Indianapolis 500 winner and Season 8's \"kissing bandit,\" starting to sound familiar?\nNo? That's OK: The star is happy with his relative anonymity.\n\u201cI love that, because it gives me an opportunity to reintroduce myself,\u201d he says. \u201cFor the women here, a lot of them didn\u2019t watch my season, so we\u2019re building relationships more organically. And I love not going in with a preconceived notion of who I am.\"\nRead or Share this story: https://usat.ly/2C217ag",

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says nearly 20 percent of all motor vehicle accidents were caused by a distracted driver in 2008. The U.S. Transportation Department will be holding their second national Distracted Driving Summit at the end of this month to help combat the problem.\nThere are numerous things that can cause a motorist to become distracted while behind the wheel. While text messaging and cell phone use have garnered most of the attention as of late, eating, grooming, and changing the radio are other common distractions.\nTransportation Secretary Ray LaHood says this year's meeting will be a good opportunity to reflect on the progress being made.\n\"One year after our first national Distracted Driving Summit, we will reconvene to take stock of our progress and reassess the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead,\" said LaHood. \"I look forward to hearing insights from our distinguished panelists and guests, and know that by working together, we will save lives.\"\nDistracted driving is one way a motorist can be involved in a motor vehicle accident. Those who have traffic violations typically find themselves being charged higher auto insurance rates because they are considered a bigger liability.",

We\u2019re always open. Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. There\u2019s always going to be an officer on duty,\" said Jory during a telephone interview Friday. \"We\u2019re removing the desk officer and getting another officer, another body, on the street. We\u2019re utilizing that officer in a much more productive [way].\"\nThe phone will automatically dial into the police department. If not answered in three rings, it will immediately roll over to the 911 Dispatch Center. Once the call is taken by a dispatcher, an officer will be assigned to respond to the police station to handle the complaint.\nThe chief said that it should be noted the phone isn\u2019t capable of making any other calls.\n\"In my opinion, we do a very good job of proactive policing at night,\" said Jory. \"A third set of eyes will help reduce any overnight crimes that we may deter through the proactive patrol.\"\nHe said the phone still needs a weather box, which should arrive sometime next week.\n\"I think the utilization of the resource of the 911 center is a good plan,\" said Mayor Tony Brindisi, a retired Herkimer police officer, during a telephone interview Friday. \"It puts another police officer on the street and makes them available for enforcement. The 911 center does a great job in dispatching.

        "title": "7 green energy challenges that are holding back development | Utility Dive",
        "raw_content": "7 green energy challenges that are holding back development\nShehryar Nabi\nEarlier this year, a U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory report claimed that over half of the United States\u2019 energy could come from renewable sources by 2050. While there has indeed been much development in clean energy technology and expansion of its productive capacity, it is important to recognize the challenges that impede international goals for simultaneously reducing carbon emissions and meeting energy demand. Many issues, such as declining investment and cost effectiveness pose serious threats to the sustainability of clean energy within existing business and regulatory models.\nUtility Dive looked into some of problems facing the expansion of alternative energy for today\u2019s list feature. Here\u2019s what we found:\n1. SUPPLY/DEMAND BALANCE\nA recent Green Tech Media report based on GTM Research findings revealed that 180 PV solar panel manufacturers are bound for either closure or acquisition by 2015. It is estimated that the supply of solar modules will exceed demand by 35 gigawatts per year until over half of the existing firms exit the high cost industry.\n88 of the companies in question are in North America and Europe, while 54 are Chinese. The report looks closely into the state of solar panel manufacturing in China, where some of the world\u2019s largest suppliers of PV solar panels are either being rescued by the government or are facing absorption into larger corporations. Unless both the government and the private sector can stabilize the gap between supply and demand, the longevity of the PV solar manufacturing industry remains uncertain.\n2. GARNERING INVESTMENT\nGlobal investment in clean energy in Q3 dropped by 5% from Q2, suggesting that 2012 may be the first year since 2004 clean energy investment has fallen. Much of this drop can be attributed to decreased investment in relatively established clean energy markets, as investment in the U.S. and China fell from Q2 by 28% and 17%, respectively. The clean energy sectors within these countries face a wealth of issues related to problematic policies and lower share prices that have left investors feeling uneasy.\nThe investment problems troubling copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) solar panel manufacturers speak to the barriers encountered by clean energy initiatives struggling to expand. Since receiving over $900 million in venture capital funds in 2008, CIGS companies have seen a dramatic withdrawal of such funds over the last four years, leaving investment at only $95 million in 2012 thus far. Recently, large solar firms in China, South Korea and Taiwan invested in American CIGS companies with the hope to transform the sector into next-generation solar technology. However, industry experts have commented that this venture will be far from profitable, and in the long run CIGS will need to both find a niche within the market and set competitive prices to attract future investment.\n3. POLITICAL LEADERSHIP\nEconomist Nicholas Stern points to the lack of government subsidies in Britain\u2019s clean energy market as a reason for potential market failure within the country\u2019s energy sector as a whole. He argues that such failures occur because the environmental consequences are not included in the cost of using fossil fuels. If markets are desired to increase societal benefit, then there needs to be room for clean energy firms to expand. This can only be done through subsidizing low-carbon energy alternatives and introducing tax incentives to curtail excessive emissions from high carbon sources of energy. Good policies will be needed to successfully implement these measures and correct for market failure, and Stern stresses the role of the government when it comes to leading the cause for expanding clean energy efforts. The absence of this political leadership in Britain can be a lesson to the rest of the world, as the country is still adopting green energy technologies at a sluggish pace compared to other nations.\n4. PRODUCTION TAX CREDIT\nThe U.S. wind energy industry is at risk if the government\u2019s Production Tax Credit (PTC) is allowed to expire by the end of the year. The senate is currently split in its decision on whether to extend the PTC or not, and the two presidential candidates stand at opposing ends of the issue, with Barak Obama favoring its extension and Mitt Romney supporting its termination. The business community has been vocal about its support of the PTC, as signs of hurt have already begun to show within the wind energy sector. The wind turbine manufacturer Vestas, which enjoyed its most expansionary year in 2012, has now been forced to scale back production and lay off hundreds of employees. Industry leaders warned that tens of thousands of employees across the wind energy sector could lose their jobs in the aftermath of PTC's expiration.\n5. RATE-OF-CONVERSION PROBLEM\nReplacing our current energy infrastructure with renewable alternatives will be a monumental task that will require the extensive use of fossil fuels to develop the necessary technologies. If clean energy is to abate the effects of climate change, it must replace fossil fuels within a very limited timeframe. The problem of having enough clean energy to meet our energy demands before the affects of global warming become severe is known as the rate-of-conversion problem, which Blogger Kurt Cobb discusses in an article for Oil Price. He provides some unsettling figures: At the current rate at which we are producing clean energy, it would take 140 to 210 years to make the full transition to a society satisfied entirely by renewables.\nHowever, the rate at which carbon is currently being emitted into the atmosphere may not allot us that much time. Cobb acknowledges that this problem can be addressed if green energy accelerates expansion and produces at higher capacities, which haven\u2019t passed 50% for many wind farms, solar panels and hydroelectric stations. But as clean energy companies expand, they will need to carefully consider the rate-of-conversion problem and track their fossil fuel usage to ensure long term sustainability.\n6. INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION AND LEGALITY\nEuropean and American solar companies are in a drawn out dispute with China on fair business practices within the solar energy market. They accuse Chinese solar companies of receiving illegal loans which were either not paid back or were financed by the government, thus allowing them to undercut prices and drive out foreign competition. Solyndra, the Obama-sponsored American solar firm that filed for bankruptcy in 2011, sued three Chinese solar companies for using illegal pricing schemes to undermine its business. The EU and the US have already levied tariffs on Chinese solar exporters, and in light of recent events solar companies want further duties to imposed.\nInterpretation of World Trade Organization rules has also proved to be an issue. Canada was recently condemned by the WTO for setting a limit on the number of devices used for solar and wind energy production that could be imported to Ontario, thus limiting foreign access to the province\u2019s clean energy market. As the market for clean energy becomes increasingly globalized, companies will need to be wary of the implications their actions have on international business.\nClean energy is only a viable solution if it can avoid being a financial burden on businesses and individuals. James Smith, Chairman of the Carbon Trust, comments for an edieEnergy article that the costs associated with adopting renewable energies such as solar power still outweigh their benefits. He argues that it will require a major feat in engineering to make solar panels more cost effective and that nuclear, coal and gas should be fitted in the definition of clean energy. When discussing renewable energy options, Smith asserts that costs, as opposed to what \u201cfeels cleaner\u201d, need to be taken more into account.\nAround the world, urban centers with emerging infrastructures to accommodate clean energy have been confronted with the issue of cost effectiveness. Although Bahrain recently made efforts to adopt clean energy, it still continues policies that subsidize natural gas and develop better techniques for extracting oil, thus leaving less room for renewable alternatives within their energy market. In London, on-site renewables have come under scrutiny in a report by the British Council of Offices (BCO). The BCO analysis concludes that clean energy has been integrated into structures in a way that is unprofitable, and that the true benefits of using on-site renewable need to be more effectively calculated prior to implementation. These cases suggest that the discussion of using alternative energy is going to be increasingly framed in terms of financial cost as opposed to environmental impact.\nWould you like to see more utility and energy news like this in your inbox on a daily basis?

Each of us takes responsibility for our individual relationship with God while we also share in the responsibility to love and disciple one another. Christ Community Church exists to help one another daily follow Jesus.\nTHE SPECIFICS OF OUR CALL\nWe desire to create an environment at CCC that is simple in its approach to help one another daily follow Jesus. We want our church to be as purposeful and effective as the first church. This is done as we live out Our Call.\nWe need to roll up our sleeves and do the hard yet rewarding work of helping one another. Whether this is through ministering to kids, leading a Bible study, serving on Sunday morning, or grabbing coffee with someone to encourage them in Christ, we are called to invest in one another\u2019s lives.\nOver 50 times in the New Testament we are called to action on behalf of \u201cone another.\" Whether it is to love one another, care for one another or bear the burdens of one another, it is clear we are to do more than follow Jesus alone. We need Him and we need one another. We are to become more like Jesus in the context of the church community.\nWhile the church service happens every Sunday, the life of the church is a privilege that is lived out every day. We are a church that daily looks to Jesus. We daily care and sacrifice for one another. We are daily on a mission to reach out to those that don\u2019t know Him.\nWe are all a work in progress. Life in Christ is not just a one-time conversion but rather a life long journey where we are becoming more like Him. To do so we listen to his voice, learn from his teaching, obey his commands, and carry out his mission. Following involves our whole heart, mind, soul and strength.\nJesus is who we are following, and who we are helping people daily follow. He is the only way to heaven. He is our Savior, King and Lord. He is Truth, the only Way to the Father, and the only One that gives us eternal life. He is the One that sent us the Holy Spirit so we can live a full life in the here and now. He is the Author of our mission to go and make disciples. He is coming back for us one day so that we can be with Him in Heaven for eternity.\nOUR CORE VERSES\nChrist Community Church seeks to live out the Great Commission, the Great Commandment, and the New Commandment Jesus gave His disciples. We model our church after the first church Jesus\u2019 disciples started over 2000 years ago.\n\"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.\"\n\"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.\u201d",

        "title": "North Korea's Secret Weapon Is Terrible Synth Pop - VICE",
        "raw_content": "North Korea's Secret Weapon Is Terrible Synth Pop\nFor the last 50 years, the North Korean government has controlled all music in The Hermit Kingdom. But Kim Jong-un may be losing control of his propaganda machine thanks to simple technology and the power of pop music.\nThe Moranbong Band. Screencap via YouTube\nPyongyang, 6 AM. The eerie stillness of the morning is shattered as loudspeakers across the city crack to life with the jarring, dissonant synth tones of \"Where Are You, Dear General?\" as performed by North Korea's state-sanctioned propaganda orchestra, the Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble. Every day, most of Pyongyang's 2.5 million residents begin their day to the recording blaring into their bedrooms. The song serves as a mandatory alarm for a people bombarded with propaganda through film, art, television, music, and radio, at every juncture of their day.\nSince the installation of the Kim regime's \"Monolithic Ideological System\" in 1967, all music in The Hermit Kingdom\u2014be it military, patriotic, folk, orchestral, pop\u2014has been produced by the government at the behest of the Supreme Leader. All outside music is strictly prohibited and non-sanctioned indigenous North Korean music has been wiped out. State-produced music plays a ubiquitous role in the daily lives of North Koreans, and the regime's totalitarian grasp over its production and consumption represents the most effective manifestation of soft power in practice anywhere on the planet.\n\"There's music everywhere in North Korea: in the workplace, at home, in the streets,\" says Darren Zook, a professor of political science at UC Berkeley. \"North Korean television\u2014which is all state propaganda\u2014doesn't broadcast all day. In periods where there is nothing on, they play propaganda music, continuously, for hours on end. It's considered the duty of a citizen to have their TV on all day so they're hearing that music, just so in the background they are reminded of the presence of the state. It's behavioral conditioning; the eternal reminder that the state is watching.\"\nThe music popularized during any period in the country is a reflection of the Kim in power at that time. In the 1970s and 80s, Kim Il Sung preferred staid folk music and orchestral arrangements that glorified Korean history and socialist workers of the world. In the 1990s, Kim Jong -i's paranoid, wonky perspective on modernism shone through in the attempts at outdated synth pop of the Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble, whose tracks have names like \"Excellent Horse-Like Lady\" and \"Song For Tankman.\" Recently, Kim Jong-un's attempts at replicating the success of South Korean K-Pop have resulted in The Moranbong Band, a 21-piece, all-female NK-pop extravaganza. \"None of it's good,\" laughs Zook, reflecting on the timeline. \"It's all bleeding from the ears bad.\"\nOutside the gargantuan personality cult of the Kim Dynasty, government pop groups serve as the closest iteration of celebrity culture in North Korea. Alongside military or science, music is one of the few avenues for social mobility in the country. \"In Pyongyang, which is really where everything happens, if you have any musical inclination whatsoever, they have guitars, they have pianos, they have all sorts of instruments in school,\" says Zook. \"If you have musical talent, you will be groomed and sent to the Pyongyang University for Music and Dance. The privileges you get are just astonishing\u2014access to power, different levels of shopping, preferential housing. There's tremendous competition.\" Kim Jong-un's wife Ri Sol-ju was herself a member of the now-defunct Unhasu Orchestra when Kim Jong-il handpicked her for the role of future first lady and wife to his heir.\nBut there may also be great danger in being a North Korean pop-aganda star. In August of 2013, it was reported by South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbo that members of the Wangjaesan Light Music Band and the Unhasu Orchestra were rounded up and accused of the crime of \"pornography\" after making pornographic videos. Under direct order from Kim Jong-un, 12 individuals were reportedly executed by firing squad while bandmates and family members were forced to watch.\n\"If you are an artist who catches the eye of the great leader, everyone else around you is now jealous,\" says Zook. \"If you get too comfortable in that position, that's how you end up dead or thrown out or pushed off the stage.\" North Korea denies the executions happened.\nThe big question when it comes to music in North Korea is: Do the people actually like this stuff? \"I think there's a wide range of how much people buy into the propaganda,\" says Peter Moody, a Columbia University PHD candidate in East Asian Language and Culture currently stationed in Beijing. \"Kim Il Sung was much more esteemed than Kim Jong-il, but it's very difficult to say how people feel because very little information gets out.\"\nAlthough the information that makes it out of Pyongyang is as tightly controlled as ever, there has been a major shift in what makes it in.\nEven a totalitarian state like North Korea cannot stop progress. As Kim Jong-un is finding out, outlawing and censoring the internet cannot stem the flow of information. A 2017 report by Washington-based agency InterMedia stated that although 100% of North Koreans have access to television\u2014with its 24-hour cavalcade of propaganda\u2014only 2% have access to the internet. Instead, North Korean black market media reaches people through DVD players (which 93% of surveyed North Korean defectors said they had used to view foreign media while in the country), USB flash drives (used by 81%) and mobile phones (used by 78%)\u2014all imported from neighboring China. 98% of those people said the primary media they traded\u2014often between family and friends\u2014were TV dramas and music from South Korea. It turns out that the 38th Parallel, the most heavily guarded border in the world, is no match for a catchy melody.\nIn response to this direct attack on the monolithic system, Kim Jong-un's regime has cracked down on consumption of outside media. A specialized military unit named Group 109 roves Pyongyang and nearby principalities, inspecting the mobile devices of people on the street and entering people's homes to search for DVDs and USB sticks. The punishments reportedly range from the public humiliation of being forced to pen a \"self-criticism letter,\" to banishment to a labor camp. Still, USBs\u2014which are easily hidden and in the worst case scenario, can be swallowed\u2014have proven to be very difficult to control.\nAdditionally, Kim Jong-un has moved to revamp the state propaganda apparatus with new groups like the Moranbong Band, the all-girl pop extravaganza intended to replicate the K-Pop phenomenon. Unfortunately, it's the same old Soviet routine, just with sequined miniskirts and electronic violins. \"The regime, when they pick up on the fact that there are 1,000,000 YouTube views [on one of their videos], see it as evidence that their plan is working,\" says Zook. \"They don't understand that people are watching it because it's a trainwreck. North Korea isn't really in on the joke, and they can't figure out why it hasn't caught on as much as K-pop.\"\nNorth Korea's USB boom took only a half decade to create an informal, offline information network that threatens to unshackle the North Korean people's attention from the monolithic ideological stranglehold tightened by three generations of totalitarian dictatorship. The regime has been sluggish in stemming the tide or countering it with anything resembling a China-style intranet to refocus attention on the state media apparatus.\nAs of now, the content shared is Korea-centric and driven by entertainment rather than politics, but the people of the Hermit Kingdom are connected to the outside world like never before\u2014against the will of the regime. It may yet turn out that what topples the Workers Party of North Korea is not nuclear war or economic collapse, but a slow social disengagement instigated by terrible, terrible synthpop.\nFollow Jemayel Khawaja on Twitter.\nUnhasu orchestra\nWangjaesan Light Band",

        "raw_content": "Gloria Steinem: \u201cYoung women today are more shit-free than we were\u201d\nGloria be!\nImage: Jason Schmidt\nHere\u2019s a history lesson. More than 40 years ago, before Gloria Steinem helped launch what would be known as the women\u2019s liberation movement, \u201chelp-wanted\u201d ads in American newspapers were separated into jobs for men (budding executives) and women (secretaries). Steinem\u2019s unrelenting crusade for equal pay, equal rights and reproductive freedom gave women their greatest modern leader. Before she made history, Steinem was a New York freelancer, writing about everything from mod hair- cuts to social policy. Glimpses of feminism were seen in pieces she did for Glamour, like \u2018The Student Princess (or How to Seize Power on the Campus of Your Choice)\u2019. Her then roommate, actor Ali MacGraw, remembers Steinem \u201cworking, working at her desk in the corner\u2014I knew she was destined for great significance. She was a beautiful creature with so much substance.\u201d\nThe moment that changed her life came when she was covering a legislative hearing on abortion in 1969, when the procedure was still banned in most states. \u201cHow much power could we ever have if we had no power over our own bodies?\u201d she wrote. By 1971, she had co-founded the National Women\u2019s Political Caucus, helped launch Ms. magazine and made Newsweek\u2019s cover as the \u201cbest fundraiser\u201d and \u201cmost sought- after spokesperson\u201d of the burgeoning women\u2019s movement. As her fame grew, her one-liners became legend: \u201cThe truth will set you free,\u201d she said, \u201cbut first it will piss you off.\u201d\nSteinem has been a leader on everything from gay rights to sexual harassment. At 82, she\u2019s still influencing young women the world over\u2014 her panel discussions drew the most packed house even at Jaipur Literature Festival this year. Although she believes there\u2019s still work to be done, she\u2019s thrilled by the progress so far. \u201cYoung women today are more shit-free than we were, much more likely to say what they think,\u201d she says. As for her own life, her famous quotes could sum that up: \u201cWe are the women that our parents warned us about, and we are proud.\u201d \u2014Sheila Weller\nSteinem talks about the surprise success of Ms. magazine (which she co-founded) and the most inspiring women today. Edited excerpts:\nDo you find it scary when you hear people talking about how women shouldn\u2019t have equal pay or abortion rights? Do you wonder what they\u2019re thinking?\nI know what they\u2019re thinking. Their worldview is the opposite [of mine]. They\u2019re saying that the means of reproduction, which is women\u2019s bodies, has to be controlled\u2026 I understand what they\u2019re saying. It\u2019s wrong, but I understand it.\nHow important was it for you to speak out when you first started doing so?\nIt was like being born. You\u2019re like, \u201cOh, I\u2019m not crazy! The system is crazy. Imagine that?\u201d It was a force of understanding and self-respect. You start to understand why things happen and it\u2019s the big, \u201cAha!\u201d But, the public speaking part of it was very hard for me.\nDid it get any easier?\nIt\u2019s sort of like malaria. I\u2019m grateful that I can do it because it is a different form of communication from writing, and you do have all five senses when you\u2019re in a room together. All those chemicals that create empathy only work when you are in a room together. I\u2019m really grateful to have this experience in my life, of being in a room with people, talking, learning and hearing what they have to say. I\u2019m grateful because speaking in public is not my natural form of communication. We choose to be writers be- cause we don\u2019t want to talk.\nOnce you get past the nerves about speaking in front of an audience, does it feel empowering to get feedback?\nIt\u2019s like being part of a big campfire. It\u2019s very moving and satisfying. I\u2019ve learned that audiences that seem impersonal eventually come up with such intimate, wise and totally surprising things. It\u2019s empowering, in the sense of feeling like you\u2019re a part of something important.\nHAVE YOU SIGNED UP WITH US YET ?\nWhen you started Ms. magazine in 1971, you had no idea how it would be received. What was the most validating response?\nWell, the first response was when we printed 3,00,000 copies of the preview issue, and we couldn\u2019t afford publicity. I was on a morning show, and people were calling up after the morning show saying, \u201cWe can\u2019t find it.\u201d It was about a week of having it on the newsstands. We put it out in January and it was called the Spring Issue because we thought it was going to stay there and we didn\u2019t want to embarrass the Steinem (left) with actor Cybill Shepherd, c. 1969 movement, but it sold out. That told me that we had created something that was needed and wanted. Other than that, it was the letters. We were a tiny magazine, compared to most other magazines, but we got more letters than any of them. The early letters are now at Radcliffe and Smith (in Massachusetts) as a record of the movement.\nHow do you see the portrayal of women on television today?\nThe worst of it are those Real Housewives shows. A friend is writing a book on female friendship, and she\u2019s doing a last chapter on the Housewives shows, which I think are a backlash against women bonding with each other be- cause all they show is hostility, competition and derived power, as wives of men with power.\nIs there anyone today who you think is particularly empowering?\nIn the US, the most obvious ones are in politics. There\u2019s Hillary Clinton or Kirsten Gillibrand, who\u2019s my Senator from the state of New York, or Maxine Waters in California.\nWhere do you see women now in the bigger picture? There\u2019s much more support, much less hostility. The greatest problem today is the effort to make this change seem permanent. As with the Suffragist movement, which lasted 100 years, movements have to last a century, so we have at least another 50 years to go. About 10 years into the movement, people began to say, \u201cOh, that used to be necessary, but it\u2019s not anymore,\u201d and they\u2019re still saying that. That\u2019s the forum the polite opposition takes. The not-so-polite opposition is different.",

        "raw_content": "Trump administration quietly makes it legal to bring elephant parts to the U.S. as trophies\nAn elephant walks in Kenya\u2019s Amboseli National Park, with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. (Goran Tomasevic/Reuters)\nThe Trump administration will allow Americans to bring tusks and other elephant body parts back to this country as trophies, in a pivot away from the support President Trump voiced last year for an Obama-era trophy ban.\nThe decision, announced quietly in a March 1 memorandum from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, withdrew previous rulings on trophy hunting and said the agency would allow sport hunters to receive permits for the trophy items on a \u201ccase-by-case basis.\u201d\nThe move contrasts sharply with the position taken by Trump in November.\nAfter the Fish and Wildlife Service announced a repeal of the ban on the importation of elephant-hunt trophies from Zimbabwe and Zambia, wide public outcry prompted Trump and Ryan Zinke, the secretary of the interior, which houses the wildlife agency, to put the repeal on hold until further review.\n[Trump puts hold on decision to again allow trophies from elephant hunts in Zimbabwe]\nTrump later called elephant hunting a \u201chorror show\u201d and said that it would be very difficult for anyone to change his mind.\nAfrican elephants have been listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act since 1979.\nProponents of big-game hunting and the current Interior Department leadership believe that money from permits to hunt elephants would aid in their conservation by putting more revenue in the system. The agency\u2019s memo cites a long-running lawsuit against the ban filed by Safari Club International and the National Rifle Association\u2019s lobbying arm.\n\u201cThe Trump administration is trying to keep these crucial trophy import decisions behind closed doors, and that\u2019s totally unacceptable,\u201d Tanya Sanerib, international legal director at the Center for Biological Diversity, told the Associated Press. \u201cElephants aren\u2019t meant to be trophies, they\u2019re meant to roam free.\u201d\n[Trump calls elephant hunting a \u2018horror show\u2019 and suggests he\u2019ll enforce a ban on trophy imports]\nThe president\u2019s sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump are avid game hunters. A photograph of Trump Jr. holding a knife and a dead elephant\u2019s tail after a hunt in Zimbabwe in 2011 has drawn wide attention in the past.\nUnder Zinke, who is also a hunter, the Interior Department\u2019s policies have become noticeably more pro-hunting. According to the AP, the department took a step in June to potentially allow grizzly bears near Yellowstone National Park to be hunted. And the Fish and Wildlife Service has begun allowing African lions killed in Zimbabwe and Zambia to be imported, the AP reported.\nThe population of African elephants has shrunk from about 5 million a century ago to about 400,000, a drop precipitated in part by poaching and the demand for elephant ivory and by the loss of habitat, the AP reported.\nElephant hunting is not a sport that is widely accessible to American citizens. The safaris in Africa can cost more than $50,000 per person, the AP reported.\nRoy Moore issues grievance-laden plea for money: \u2018My resources have been depleted\u2019\nWalmart will raise age for purchase of guns and ammunition to 21\nICE begins deportation raids in Northern California, as federal officials blame Oakland mayor",

Sorry, but only one thing will work!\nNorth Korean officials have previously called some of Trump's comments and tweets declarations of war.\nU.S. analysts have said that North Korea's nuclear program has quickly accelerated and the country is now making missile-ready nuclear weapons. Last week, tensions again escalated as North Korea threatened to shoot down U.S. military planes, even if they are not in the country\u2019s airspace.\nThe president's latest tweets come as the world continues to try to decipher another cryptic message that Trump issued on Thursday night at the White House, as he posed for a photo with the country's top military leaders.\n[\u2018What storm, Mr. President?\u2019 Trump puts world on edge with cryptic cliffhanger]\n\u201cYou guys know what this represents?\u201d Trump asked reporters in the room that night. \u201cMaybe it\u2019s the calm before the storm.\u201d\nWhen pressed to explain what he meant, Trump said: \u201cYou\u2019ll find out.\u201d\nThe White House has declined to explain what, if anything, the president meant with that comment.\n\u201cWe\u2019re never going to say in advance what the president\u2019s going to do,\u201d White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at the Friday news briefing. \u201cYou\u2019ll have to wait and see.\u201d\nAs Trump left the White House on Saturday evening, reporters again asked him what the comment meant.\n\u201cNothing to clarify,\u201d the president said.\nWhen pressed again on what he meant, Trump said: \u201cWell, you'll figure that out pretty soon.\u201d\nTrump also said that he has \u201ca very good relationship\u201d with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, despite a report from NBC News this week that Tillerson has been deeply frustrated with the president and even referred to him a \u201cmoron\u201d after a meeting at the Pentagon in late July. Trump doesn't believe that report, which was sourced to three officials, and again called it \"fake news\" on Saturday.\n\u201cWe have a very good relationship,\u201d Trump said of Tillerson on Saturday. \u201cWe disagree on a couple of things.

        "title": "This college professor gives her students extra credit for going on dates - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "This college professor gives her students extra credit for going on dates\nAbout 12 years ago, Boston College philosophy professor Kerry Cronin added an unorthodox task to her syllabus: Ask someone out on a date, where there will be no alcohol or physical contact.\nSounds far easier than a research paper, right? A lot more fun, too.\nBut when Cronin first gave this assignment, she says her students talked a lot about asking someone out but didn\u2019t follow through. (Later, she tweaked the assignment to give a two-week deadline.) \u201cI realized at that point that the social script of dating was really long gone,\u201d Cronin said over the phone recently. Because hookup culture has become so dominant on college campuses, Cronin says, going on a date has become \u201ca weirdly countercultural thing to do.\u201d\nCronin still gives a version of this assignment, which used to be mandatory but is now just for extra credit. On campus she\u2019s become known as the \u201cdating professor,\u201d but you don\u2019t need to be a Boston College student to reap her wisdom: There are numerous YouTube videos of her preaching her relationship gospel, and a documentary about the campus phenomenon she\u2019s created is showing in select theaters on Tuesday.\nHow did going on a first date become \u201ccountercultural\u201d? That may sound bonkers if you\u2019re older than 22. But to many college students, Cronin acknowledges, meeting for a cup of coffee and sober conversation with someone you\u2019re interested in on a Sunday afternoon can feel more intimate than getting naked with them on a Friday night.\nKerry Cronin, a philosophy professor at Boston College, gives her students extra credit for going on a first date. (Photo courtesy of \u201cThe Dating Project\u201d documentary.)\nCronin sees two main reasons for why students aren\u2019t prioritizing dating and relationships in college. First, serious commitments can seem far off as a college student; the median age of first marriage in the United States is age 27.4 for women and age 29.5 for men. Second, higher education is expensive \u2014 in 2016, the average graduate finished college with over $37,000 in student loan debt \u2014 so students\u2019 primary concern is not falling in love but securing a job.\n\u201cEven students\u2019 parents are telling them: \u2018Don\u2019t get caught up in a relationship now; you need to get your career set and on track before you even really start thinking about that,\u2019 \u201d Cronin says. She adds that our \u201chypersexualized\u201d culture focuses more on getting laid than on \u201cthe foibles and the hard work and the joys and the despair of just casual dating.\u201d\nCronin\u2019s dating project is an attempt to nudge young people to embrace those foibles \u2014 the nervousness of asking someone out and the rejection that can result. She created the assignment after learning that many of her seniors were about to graduate and had never been on a first date. (Our own Washington Post Date Lab bears this out; the column recently set up a 24-year-old woman with a 23-year-old man who\u2019d never been on a dinner date and didn\u2019t know how to engage in conversation with a stranger.)\nPlus, even in the real world, there are no dating rules anymore. Plans are frequently broken or rescheduled; dating apps create so many options that people are often treated as if they\u2019re disposable. The person who asks someone out doesn\u2019t necessarily pick up the check anymore. All of which are why students are so intrigued and clueless about how to go about this assignment.\nSo Cronin gives guidelines: The student has to ask in person (\u201ctexting is the devil; stop it,\u201d she says in one of her YouTube videos), and the recipient has to know it\u2019s a date. And if they say they\u2019re busy and to check back with them later, don\u2019t. Just move on. \u201cThat\u2019s a great skill to build, so that you can have a thicker skin,\u201d Cronin says. She believes that the person who asks, pays. And the first date shouldn\u2019t cost more than $10, include drugs or alcohol, or last longer than 90 minutes. \u201cNobody\u2019s interesting after three hours,\u201d she says, which is true for daters of any age.\nCronin is a philosophy professor. What does learning how to date have to do with Plato and Aristotle? She sees conversations about dating as part of the big questions her classes tackle, such as: How should I live my life? What kinds of relationships help me to become the kind of person I want to be?\nIf students don\u2019t learn how to date while they\u2019re in college, while surrounded by thousands of peers all in a similar stage in life, Cronin says, it only gets harder to build those skills after graduation. One skill that comes with practicing asking people out and inevitably experiencing rejection: Learning that your \u201cego strength\u201d doesn\u2019t come from someone else, Cronin says, citing a Freudian term, but that\u2019s it\u2019s natural to seek that ratification from other people.\nCronin has received all sort of pushback to her dating project \u2014 from super-Catholics, from super-feminists and from students who\u2019d rather focus on getting a job than getting a date. Her defense? \u201cNot everybody is called to romantic relationship, not everyone is called to marriage,\u201d Cronin says. \u201cBut everybody\u2019s called to relationships \u2014 that what it means to be human.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s what she\u2019s trying to foster. She tells students: \u201cThis is mostly not about meeting your soul mate; it\u2019s mostly about social courage and challenging yourself to be a little countercultural, to do something you know you want to do. And to just be okay with being a little awkward, a little vulnerable and asking a little bit of yourself.\u201d\nHowever, some of her students do meet their soul mates as a result of this assignment.\nFor example, when Erika Pe\u00f1a took Cronin\u2019s class in 2008, she asked one of her guyfriends, Jared, to join her for ice cream not far from campus. The two of them knew each other through mutual friends and would frequently see one another at parties, but hadn\u2019t spent one-on-one time together \u2014 until the dating assignment. It was the first time Pe\u00f1a had asked a guy on a date. \u201cIt leapfrogged us into having an actual conversation that didn\u2019t revolve around a Jager Bomb,\u201d Pe\u00f1a recalled recently. They went out a few more times, but graduation was nearing and Pe\u00f1a had a job lined up in New York City. \u201cAt 20, I wasn\u2019t necessarily thinking I\u2019m looking for something serious.\u201d\nBut they continued dating for several years before getting engaged back at the ice cream shop where they had their first date. When they got married in 2014, Cronin attended their wedding. They now have a son, Adrian, who\u2019s 15 months old.\nIf it hadn\u2019t been for the dating project, Pe\u00f1a says, that date might have never happened. \u201cAt graduation, we probably would have gone our separate ways.\u201d\nIf you aren\u2019t in a relationship, who is your \u2018person\u2019?\nBeing an advice columnist: How do you help others when you don\u2019t have your life figured out?",

        "raw_content": "Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX makes history by launching a \u2018flight-proven\u2019 rocket\nElon Musk's SpaceX launched its Falcon 9 rocket from Florida's Kennedy Space Center on March 30. (Reuters)\nFrom a distance, it looked like any other rocket at Florida\u2019s Kennedy Space Center, a soaring tower of thrust and power, ready to blast off into orbit. Upon closer inspection, though, there were signs of something different about this rocket.\nThe Falcon 9\u2019s first-stage booster was not as clean and shiny as they usually are. It was just a touch dull, showing, ever so slightly, the scorched wear from its first launch, almost a year ago \u2014 a \u201cflight-proven\u201d rocket, as Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX likes to call it. On Thursday evening, almost one year after it had previously flown the Falcon 9 rocket, SpaceX launched it again.\nThe launch, at 6:27 p.m., marked the first time that a rocket had flown a payload to orbit, landed vertically and then been reused. The flight signaled an important landmark, capping years of work and some fiery theatrics of boosters screaming back from space only to explode in failed attempts to land on ships at sea.\nIn December 2015, SpaceX was able to land its first rocket on a landing pad at Cape Canaveral. A few months later, the company did it again, this time at sea. Since then, it has made landing rockets as exciting \u2014 or more so \u2014 than the 3-2-1, bone-rattling liftoffs of fire and smoke that have reignited interest in space exploration.\nAfter the successful launch, an emotional Musk called it \u201can incredible milestone in the history of space.\u201d\nOnce aloft, the Falcon 9 boosters perform a bit of aerial acrobatics, turning around and then flying back to Earth. Guided by computer algorithms and GPS navigation, they make their way through the clouds to their target, slowing down by firing their engines again until they touch down softly, with remarkable, near bull\u2019s-eye precision.\nThose feats are meant to serve a higher purpose than entertaining the company\u2019s growing and at times rabid fan base, which treats launches like groupies do rock concerts. The real goal is to dramatically lower the cost of spaceflight, making it accessible as the company pursues its ultimate goal of reaching Mars.\nThat has taken a lot of ingenuity \u2014 and computing power.\nUp until recently, the first stages of rockets were traditionally discarded, lost in the ocean after providing the initial power to escape Earth\u2019s gravity. But to entrepreneurs like Musk, that is an incredible waste \u2014 like throwing away an airplane after every use. The technology has also been pursued by Jeffrey P. Bezos\u2019s Blue Origin space company, which has flown the same New Shepard booster past the edge of space five times. (Bezos owns The Washington Post.)\n\u201cWe\u2019re not one-way-trip-to-Mars people. We want to make sure that whoever we take can come back. And from that perspective, you have to have a reusable system,\u201d Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX\u2019s president, said during the company\u2019s live broadcast before the launch. \u201cWe\u2019re really looking for true operational reusability, like an aircraft.\u201d\nThursday\u2019s flight was the first time a rocket designed to deliver a payload to orbit \u2014 a more difficult feat than Blue Origin\u2019s suborbital flights \u2014 had been launched anew. It came during a mission to deliver a commercial satellite for SES, a Luxembourg-based satellite operations company, to what\u2019s known as geostationary orbit, more than 22,000 miles high.\n\u201cWhat SpaceX did today is a historic accomplishment,\u201d said Alan Stern, a former NASA executive and chairman of the board of the Commercial Spaceflight Federation. \u201cThey are transforming the future of space exploration.\u201d\nMartin Halliwell, SES\u2019s chief technology officer, said the company had no concerns about putting its satellite, which would help beam high-definition television to parts of Mexico and South America, on a used rocket. The company thoroughly vetted the rocket along with SpaceX, which spent months examining and testing it ahead of the launch, he said.\nAnd it looked good for a rocket that\u2019s been flown before, Halliwell said. Any wear and tear were signs of pride.\n\u201cIt hasn\u2019t been repainted,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe Elon specifically didn\u2019t want it repainted. . . . It doesn\u2019t look all scruffy and scorched and sooty. It looks pretty good.\u201d\nSeveral minutes after liftoff, the Falcon 9 flew back to Earth, touching down yet again. Halliwell said the company has contracted SpaceX for four more flights this year. He said the company is considering flying at least two of those on \u201cflight-proven\u201d rockets.",

        "title": "Trump to inherit more than 100 court vacancies, plans to reshape judiciary - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Trump to inherit more than 100 court vacancies, plans to reshape judiciary\nPresident-elect Donald Trump listens during a meeting at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Fla., on Dec. 21. (Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post)\nDonald Trump is set to inherit an uncommon number of vacancies in the federal courts in addition to the open Supreme Court seat, giving the president-elect a monumental opportunity to reshape the judiciary after taking office.\nThe estimated 103 judicial vacancies that President Obama is expected to hand over to Trump in the Jan. 20 transition of power is nearly double the 54 openings Obama found eight years ago following George W. Bush\u2019s presidency.\nConfirmation of Obama\u2019s judicial nominees slowed to a crawl after Republicans took control of the Senate in 2015. Obama White House officials blame Senate Republicans for what they characterize as an unprecedented level of obstruction in blocking the Democratic president\u2019s court picks.\nThe result is a multitude of openings throughout the federal circuit and district courts that will allow the new Republican president to quickly make a wide array of lifetime appointments.\nState gun control laws, abortion restrictions, voter laws, anti-discrimination measures and immigrant issues are all matters that are increasingly heard by federal judges and will be influenced by the new composition of the courts. Trump has vowed to choose ideologues in the mold of the late Supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia, a conservative icon \u2014 a prospect that has activists on the right giddy.\n\u201cI\u2019m optimistic he\u2019ll come at this right out of the gate,\u201d said Carrie Severino, chief counsel and policy director of the Judicial Crisis Network, a conservative group that has opposed many of Obama\u2019s court choices.\n\u201cEvery president can expect to make a huge impact,\u201d Severino added. \u201c[Trump] is unique in having campaigned really hard on this issue \u2014 the significance of the courts, and of the Supreme Court in particular.\u201d\nThe Supreme Court vacancy created by Scalia\u2019s death in February was a motivating issue for many conservative voters, especially evangelical Christians, to turn out for Trump. Senate Republicans refused to hold even a hearing on Obama\u2019s nomination of Merrick Garland, the chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, for the Scalia seat.\nDemocrats accuse Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), chairman of the Judiciary Committee, of intentionally denying Obama\u2019s nominees a fair hearing and running out the clock in hopes that a Republican would succeed him, as Trump has.\nTwenty-five of Obama\u2019s court nominees were pending on the Senate floor, after having been approved out of the committee with bipartisan support, but did not get a vote before the Senate ended its two-year term before the holidays, according to White House spokesman Eric Schultz.\n\u201cRepublican tactics have been shameful and will forever leave a stain on the United States Senate,\u201d Schultz said. \u201cRepublican congressional dysfunction has now metastasized to the third branch of government, and that is not a legacy to be proud of.\u201d\nTrump spoke frequently about his intentions to put forward a more conservative Supreme Court nominee as a way to galvanize the right.\n\u201cThe replacement of our beloved Justice Scalia will be a person of similar views, principles and judicial philosophies,\u201d Trump said in his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. \u201cVery important. This will be one of the most important issues decided by this election.\u201d\nAlthough Trump spoke little on the campaign trail about the many vacancies on lower courts, remaking the federal judiciary overall has been a priority of his and of Vice President-elect Mike Pence, aides said.\nTrump\u2019s older sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, is a senior judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit. First appointed to the federal bench by President Ronald Reagan, Barry was later elevated to the circuit court by President Bill Clinton and is known for her relative moderation. She has spoken out against women\u2019s claims of sexual harassment yet also struck down a New Jersey law banning late-term abortions as unconstitutional.\nTrump transition officials declined to comment on the process of selecting nominees, but incoming White House Counsel Don McGahn is expected to play a key role. Such groups as the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation have been working with the Trump team to suggest possible candidates.\nThe judiciary also is a top priority for McConnell, who stands ready to help the Trump White House identify candidates and grease the sometimes-laborious Senate confirmation process.\nThe Trump administration and the Senate will be under pressure to quickly install judges in courts around the country where cases are severely backlogged because of long-vacant seats.\nThere are 38 so-called judicial emergencies, according to the nonpartisan Judicial Conference, including in Texas, where seven seats have sat empty for more than one year. The Obama administration and the state\u2019s two conservative Republican senators could not come to an agreement on nominees for the many openings.\n\u201cThere is a real impact on real people,\u201d said W. Neil Eggleston, Obama\u2019s White House counsel. \u201cThere are people and companies who are not having their cases heard because there are no judges around.\u201d\nThe politics surrounding judicial vacancies are more poisonous than at any time in recent memory, as the Garland episode has shown, with Democrats and Republicans at loggerheads for much of the two years since McConnell took leadership of the Senate.\n[Supreme Court to begin new term short-handed as its ideological balance hinges on fall vote]\nSen. Patrick J. Leahy (Vt.), the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, issued a 4,200-word statement this month saying that by blocking Garland, Republicans had committed \u201cthe most outrageous act of obstruction and irresponsibility\u201d that he had seen in his 42 years in the Senate.\nSpeaking more generally about circuit and district court vacancies, Leahy added: \u201cDespite the fact that there are dozens of qualified, consensus nominees pending on the Senate floor right now, we will finish this Congress having confirmed just 22 judicial nominees in two years. That is the lowest number since Harry Truman was president.\u201d\nAs with many subjects, judicial nomination data can be subject to interpretation. Judicial vacancies ebb and flow somewhat randomly, considering judges serve lifetime appointments until they choose to retire or die.\n\u201cIt is a challenge to make apples-to-apples comparisons at the end of a term because vacancies don\u2019t happen in the same regular basis as they do in the Senate or the White House,\u201d said Don Stewart, a spokesman for McConnell. \u201cTo make an apples-to-apples comparison on a snapshot in time doesn\u2019t work.\u201d\nDespite Obama\u2019s difficulty winning confirmation for his nominees, the Senate has confirmed more of his nominees during his eight years as president, 329, than it did Bush\u2019s during his eight years in office, 326.\nBeth Levine, a spokeswoman for Grassley, said, \u201cThe White House has very little to complain about because no matter how they spin it, the fact is that President Obama had more judicial nominees confirmed than President Bush.\u201d\nObama has used his nominations to systematically diversify the federal courts to look more like the fast-changing country. He appointed far more female and minority judges than any other president in history, and he has paid particular attention to sexual orientation. When Obama took office, there was only one openly gay or lesbian judge, and he appointed 11 more.\n\u201cThe president, my predecessors and I spent a significant amount of time looking for all different kinds of diversity \u2014 racial, sexual orientation, gender and professional background,\u201d Eggleston said.\n[Obama pushing to diversity federal judiciary amid GOP delays]\nWhen Obama took office, only one of the 13 regional circuit courts had a majority of Democratic-nominated judges, and as he leaves, nine do. While the Supreme Court hears roughly 75 cases a year, tens of thousands are decided at the circuit court level, affecting all who live in the states within those circuits.\nRussell Wheeler, an expert on judicial nominations at the Brookings Institution, said Trump has a great opportunity to change the partisan split in the federal courts. He predicted that by mid-2020, Republican appointees would hold about half of the 673 district judgeships, as opposed to the current 34 percent. And among the 179 circuit court judgeships, Democratic appointees now hold a slim majority, 51 percent, but that could fall to about 43 percent.\nBut Wheeler warned that there are important limitations to Trump\u2019s power. For one thing, many of the judges most likely to leave their appointments in the coming years were appointed by Republican presidents, meaning there will be fewer opportunities to shift the partisan makeup.\nAnd perhaps more importantly, 28 of the 50 states will be represented by at least one Democratic senator, including large ones such as California, Florida and New York. Senate leaders have a tradition of considering nominees only if they are supported by both senators representing their state \u2014 and Democratic senators are expected to bargain hard with the Trump administration, just as Republican senators did with Obama\u2019s.\n\u201cThe president doesn\u2019t always get exactly who he wants,\u201d Wheeler said.",

        "raw_content": "In Libya, Moammar Gaddafi\u2019s rule crumbling as rebels enter heart of Tripoli\nBy Thomas Erdbrink and\nTRIPOLI, Libya \u2014 Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi\u2019s four-decade-long rule over the country was crumbling at breakneck speed as hundreds of rebel fighters swept into Tripoli and took control Monday of the symbolically significant Green Square in the heart of the city.\nWith rebel leaders saying late Sunday that Gad\u00addafi\u2019s compound was surrounded, that his son Saif al-Islam had been captured and that his presidential guard had surrendered, the six-month-old battle for control of Libya appeared to be hurtling toward a dramatic finale.\nIn a written statement, President Obama said: \u201cTonight, the momentum against the Qadhafi regime has reached a tipping point. Tripoli is slipping from the grasp of a tyrant.\u201d\nEarly Monday there were reports of heavy clashes near Gaddafi\u2019s compound. Rebel spokesman Mohammed Abdel-Rahman said that tanks had emerged from the complex and began firing, AP said.\nOnly a few residents in Tripoli ventured out to greet the rebels, and there was an overall sense of nervousness on Green Square. Posters of Gaddafi had been ripped to pieces, and young men were shooting off guns and fireworks.\nIn a brief broadcast on state television, Gaddafi made what came across as a desperate plea for support. \u201cGo out and take your weapons,\u201d the Libyan leader said. \u201cAll of you, there should be no fear.\u201d\nThe rebel advance had unfolded with surprising speed throughout the day as fighters converged on the capital from three directions. In areas under rebel control, opposition flags fluttered, while jubilant residents honked horns, set off fireworks and stomped on posters of Gaddafi.\nWith communications to the capital sporadic, some rebel claims could not be confirmed, and some experts cautioned that a tough urban battle may yet lie ahead between the lightly armed and untrained rebels and the elite government forces kept in reserve for the defense of the capital.\nBut reporters traveling with rebel forces said Gaddafi\u2019s defenses were melting away faster than had been expected. There were reports of entire units fleeing as rebels entered the capital from the south, east and west, and his supporters inside the city tearing off their uniforms, throwing down their weapons and attempting to blend into the population.\nA Tripoli-based activist said the rebels had secured the seaport, where several hundred reinforcements for the opposition had arrived by boat, and were in the process of evicting Gaddafi loyalists from the Mitiga air base on the eastern edge of the city.\n\u201cThe Gaddafi regime is clearly crumbling,\u201d said a statement issued by NATO, whose five-month-old aerial bombing campaign, ostensibly launched to protect civilians from attacks by the government, contributed enormously to the erosion of Gaddafi\u2019s defenses.\nNATO said Monday it will continue its combat patrols over Libya until Gaddafi loyalists surrender or return to barracks.\nA U.S. official closely tracking intelligence reports from Tripoli said there was no independent confirmation of reports that Gaddafi\u2019s sons had been captured but added that events were moving so rapidly that confirmation was difficult. The official said rebel forces appeared to be benefiting not only from strong momentum but also from smart strategic planning going into the capital.\n\u201cWe could be watching the game-changer unfold,\u201d said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence reports. \u201cWhether or not Gaddafi reads the tea leaves the same way is the big question.\u201d\nIn the rebel capital, Benghazi, where huge crowds gathered to celebrate what they hoped was the imminent capture of Tripoli, Transitional National Council leader Mustafa Abdel Jalil announced that Gaddafi\u2019s son Saif al-Islam had been captured.\nRebels in Tripoli also said that Gaddafi\u2019s eldest son, Mohammed, had surrendered after fighters stormed his home.\nThere was no information about Gaddafi\u2019s whereabouts, though he had issued a defiant speech earlier in the day in which he insisted that he was in Tripoli and would not surrender. \u201cWe cannot go back until the last drop of our blood. We will defend the city. I am here with you,\u201d he said in the audio statement, purportedly broadcast live. \u201cGo on, go forward!\u201d\nBut it appeared that his control had already unraveled as the rebels swept into the capital, encountering only pockets of resistance along the way.\nThe rebels urged journalists not to remain on the square for too long, illustrating the general sense of uneasiness about their victory. There were rumors that Gaddafi\u2019s forces would try to retake the square, but that did not happen.\n\u201cThis is the happiest day of my life,\u201d said Abdul Hamid, who had driven in from outside Tripoli to be on Green Square.\nPeople on the square said that rebels had seized the symbolic location around 10 p.m. and that they faced little resistance.\nCheckpoints and neighborhood watches had been set up all over the western part of the city, but on the road from the rebel-held city of Dawiya, hundreds of cars and trucks could be seen bringing reinforcements to secure the capital.\n\u201cI never thought I\u2019d see a day like this, it\u2019s like our independence day. This is the end of the colonel,\u201d said Adel Bibas, as he stood on a street in the western portion of Tripoli. Elsewhere, there were rumors that Gaddafi\u2019s forces were on the way, and young men urged people to seek refuge inside, a sign of the tension that still weighs on the capital.\nAfter initially seizing control of the strategic western town of Zawiyah last week, the rebels pushed rapidly east throughout the day, capturing a major military base that was home to the Khamis Brigade, an elite force led by Khamis Gaddafi, one of the Libyan leader\u2019s sons.\nExultant rebels seized weapons from the base and were seen carrying away boxes of brand-new Belgian munitions, as others raced by in trucks filled to the brim with weaponry.\nBy nightfall, the rebel force\nhad reached suburban Janzour, where witnesses said government forces had abandoned their posts earlier in the day. Residents took to the streets to cheer the rebels as they swept past in their pickups into the southern edges of the city.\nAt the same time, rebels advancing along the eastern coastal highway were reported to have linked up with opposition fighters in the strategically located eastern suburb of Tajura, long a stronghold of opposition to Gaddafi, effectively cutting off the capital.\nIn a late-night briefing for journalists confined to the Rixos hotel, government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim said that at least 1,300 people had been killed since noon, in addition to 930 the previous day, and blamed NATO for the bloodshed. The figures could not be independently confirmed, and though rebels said there had been many deaths, they were skeptical that the number was that high.\nThe lightly armed opponents, who have spent months quietly organizing for this moment, were within a mile and a half of Gaddafi\u2019s Bab al-Aziziya compound by Sunday night. They were hoping to launch an assault on the headquarters as soon as they linked up with the rebel reinforcements arriving in the city, according to Tripoli resident and rebel organizer Abdel Azzuz.\nHe said that the rebels are convinced that Gaddafi is still in Tripoli and that they are in the process of setting up checkpoints across the city in case he tries to slip away.\nA rebel leader who asked to be identified only as Haj said the Libyan independence flag, which has been adopted as the symbol of the opposition, was flying from numerous mosques, government buildings and a shopping mall in areas they had seized. He said fighters could be heard singing the rebel national anthem, the words \u201cOh, my country\u201d floating through the streets amid the near-constant crackle of automatic-weapons fire.\nHaj said he was confident that the opposition fighters could hold out at least another day until the rebel army arrives. \u201cWith the efforts of our revolutionary youths and our children, we will be able to make it through tonight,\u201d he said.\nHe seemed unsure whether they would last longer than that, however, and it was unclear what level of control the anti-Gaddafi forces exert in the neighborhoods they claim to have seized. The rebels said they have a good supply of Kalashnikovs, smuggled into the city covertly since the initial uprising was crushed in March, as well as 9mm pistols and homemade bombs. In Tajura, the opposition forces had seized a sizable quantity of weapons from a government unit that fled, according to Azzuz, the rebel organizer.\nIn Washington, a second U.S. official said: \u201cThe opposition is gaining ground and putting more pressure on the regime each day. When this translates into a tipping point and what the endgame will look like is hard to determine. Gaddafi isn\u2019t sure what he\u2019s going to do from one moment to the next.\u201d\nState Department spokes\u00adwoman Victoria Nuland said officials there are turning their attention to a post-Gaddafi Libya. \u201cGad\u00addafi\u2019s days are clearly numbered,\u201d she said. \u201cIf Gaddafi cared about the Libyan people, he would step down now.\u201d\nSly reported from Beirut. Staff writers Joby Warrick in Washington and Leila Fadel in Mersa Matruh, Egypt, contributed to this report.",

        "title": "Ronald N. Cogliano: Labor Day for all workers - News - Wayne Post - Wayne County, NY",
        "raw_content": "Ronald N. Cogliano: Labor Day for all workers\nBy Ronald N. Cogliano\nEditor\u2019s note: Embargoed for use on Labor Day.\nWe recognize Labor Day as a celebration of American workers and what their drive, commitment and energy mean to our country and our individual prosperity. It is also a day to reflect on the birth of the labor movement, when workers united to demand better pay, shorter days and safer workplaces.\nHowever, that is the past, and this Labor Day and those to follow belong to all workers, not only the unionized.\nThe fact is the unions\u2019 numbers have been in a free fall since their heyday of the 1950\u2019s, in large part because government has stepped in to ensure workers\u2019 rights that didn\u2019t exist when the United States was coming of economic age.\nUnions were a by-product of ignorance, greed and cold-heartedness of the \u201ccaptains of industry\u201d during our country\u2019s economic and industrial revolution. Incidents such as the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire that killed 146 garment workers in a sweatshop, coupled with the lack of certain rights and protections for the average worker were the genesis for change.\nToday, strict laws on the local, state and federal levels protect workers and Americans enjoy the highest standard of living and economic prosperity in history. In fact, federal data shows that these laws are so effective in protecting employees that a large majority of America\u2019s workers no longer feel compelled to join a union to ensure their rights and safety.\nBut some of those very same unions, who fought to bring justice to the average worker, have become what they once despised \u00f1 a small group bent on protecting their financial interests by denying the majority of workers equal opportunity.\nConstruction labor unions, for example, have increasingly relied on political muscle to discriminate against 80 percent of Massachusetts construction workers, who chose not to join a union in 2007, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. At the behest of the powerful construction unions, which spend millions of dollars each year on political campaigns, some local and state office holders adopt Project Labor Agreements (PLA) to provide the unions with a monopoly on government\u00f1funded construction projects.\nA PLA is nice sounding phrase for union-only labor, which locks out non-union workers. Study after study proves the obvious: by locking out 80 percent of the construction workforce and handing the unions a monopoly, costs increase by at least 14 to 20 percent. While 14 to 20 percent may not sound like a lot of money, consider the \u201cBig Dig\u201d, which was governed by a union-only PLA. With a cost of almost $15 billion and rising, a 14 percent increase, which is on the low end, is $2.1 billion. For what? What did that extra $2 billion to $3 billion buy taxpayers?\nPLA proponents argue that the union-only agreements don\u2019t prohibit non-union workers from participating on a project \u00f1 just as long as the non-union worker agrees to join a union. They also contend a PLA guarantees a quality project, finished on time and on budget. The checkered history of delays, price increases and shoddy construction on the Big Dig debunks this propaganda. These same individuals consistently refuse to acknowledge the fact that wages, benefits and training are all standardized by law for public construction projects, rendering PLAs meaningless on these issues.\nBy generously donating millions of dollars of their members\u2019 dues to political candidates, construction unions have ensured quid pro quos like PLAs and other gimmicks. Together, the unions and public officials engage in employment discrimination with these sweetheart deals. The irony is, these quid pro quos make the unions no different from the greedy, unscrupulous bosses and owners they once fought against when unions were first evolving in the U.S.\nSo, while it\u2019s important to acknowledge the commitment and work of the unions more than a century ago, it\u2019s equally important to recognize the majority of today\u2019s workers who have chosen not to belong to a union. This majority has decided to rise or fall on their own merits through hard work and determination. That is what we celebrate on Labor Day.\nRonald N. Cogliano is executive director of the non-profit Merit Construction Alliance in Kingston.",

        "title": "Ling Sisters Recount Laura's Capture In North Korea | WBUR News",
        "raw_content": "Ling Sisters Recount Laura's Capture In North Korea38:00\nOn March 17, 2009, journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling were apprehended by North Korean soldiers while filming a documentary along the China-North Korea border. The two women were charged with illegal entry for crossing into North Korea -- and after several months of interrogation by North Korean officials, sentenced to 12 years of hard labor in one of North Korea's prison camps.\nAfter finding out that Laura had been arrested in North Korea, Lisa Ling -- Laura's sister and a special correspondent on The Oprah Winfrey Show and CNN -- started calling every diplomatic official she knew. She also contacted other journalists to publicize Laura's ordeal. For several weeks, Lisa appeared on national media outlets alongside other family members as part of a campaign to bring the two journalists home.\nIn an interview with Fresh Air contributor Dave Davies, the sisters describe their dual experiences with Laura's detention and release. They detail their infrequent phone conversations, in which Laura was able to tell Lisa that the only way she and Euna would be released was if a special envoy -- former President Bill Clinton -- traveled to Pyongyang to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Il. Clinton made the trip in August 2009, after Laura and Euna had spent 140 days in captivity, and helped secure their release.\nLaura and Lisa Ling's book about the five-month ordeal is called Somewhere Inside: One Sister's Captivity in North Korea and the Other Sister's Fight to Bring Her Home. Lisa Ling is also the author of Mother, Daughter, Sister, Bride: Rituals of Womanhood. She is the host of National Geographic Explorer and reports frequently for The Oprah Winfrey Show and CNN. Laura Ling is a reporter for Current TV, where she explores the effects of globalization.\nOn the story Laura Ling and Euna Lee were looking for at the China-North Korea border\nLaura Ling: \"We were covering a story about North Korean defectors, people who are fleeing the very desperate conditions in North Korea -- mass starvation, a brutal dictatorship -- and they're crossing over into China. Now many of these defectors are women, and many of these women are trafficked into really horrendous situations in neighboring China. They are forced into marriages. They are lured into the prostitution industry. And because China does not regard North Korean defectors as refugees ... they will send them back across the border to North Korea if they are caught. And that means that these people face certain punishment. They will be sent to North Korea's notorious labor camps and possibly face torture or worse. That's the story I was trying to bring to light for Current TV.\"\nOn the local guide they hired to take them to the border\nLaura Ling: \"Foreign journalists who are working overseas often hire what we call fixers -- local guides in the area who have worked with other media entities before to help them with the story. And this is a man we had hired who had previously seemed very cautious. And there were some actions that were in retrospect very suspicious. ... We went to the river to film the thoroughfare where North Koreans are crossing into China. It was never our intention when we were there that morning to cross the [Tumen] River [that separates China and North Korea]. And our guide began making some low hooting noises across the border. ... Now previously, our guide had told us that he had connections in North Korea. Our guide was involved in smuggling goods himself. And so, in my mind, I thought he was trying to make a connection with some of the border guards that he knew. He said in the past that he had taken some media to actually converse with some of these border guards on the other side. And he continued to walk closer to the North Korean side of the river and he got to the other side, stepped foot on the soil and motioned for us to follow him, which we did. We ended up on the other side of the border, and he pointed out safe houses where defectors are kept until they're ready to be smuggled across the border. And really, it was about that time -- we were not on the soil for more than a minute -- when we knew we had to leave. And that's when we turned back and walked back across the ice to the Chinese side.\"\nOn what they initially told their captors\nLaura Ling: \"When we were initially caught, Euna had told our captors that we were students, that we were working on a documentary and were working on the piece about the border region and trade in the region. We knew that the subject we were covering -- North Koreans fleeing these horrible conditions in their country -- was not going to be looked upon well by our captors. And so we were hoping, while we were still on the border, that we might be able to convince them to send us back across the border to China. And that became very clear, after about 24 hours, that that was not going to happen.\"\nOn Lisa's reaction when she found out Laura had been detained\nLisa Ling: \"I got a call at 2:30 in the morning on March 17 from my brother-in-law, Laura's husband, Ian. And he said, 'Laura has been abducted by North Korean border guards.' And that just sent a complete shock through my system because Laura -- there was never any intention to go anywhere near North Korea. Their assignment was to go to China and South Korea, so we were shocked. I knew the story they were covering, but I didn't think they were going to get close to North Korea. So Ian and I immediately -- I had Ian call our parents because we needed our mother to make contact with Chinese authorities in China, and she's proficient in Mandarin -- and I just started calling everyone in the diplomatic world that I knew. One of my first calls was to Richard Holbrooke, who was the U.S. special representative to Afghanistan and the most senior diplomat I know. And I wanted to get word to Secretary of State Clinton that this was happening. And one of the first calls we also made was to the chairman of Current TV, Laura's employer, [former] Vice President Al Gore. Because we felt like, if this was going to become the international incident that we thought it could, we needed Vice President Gore to help us.\"\nOn Laura's reaction when she was sentenced to 12 years of hard labor\nLaura Ling: \"I had tried to prepare myself for a lengthy sentence but nothing could prepare me for the verdict, when I heard the words '12 years.' And it was after the judge said '12 years,' he said, 'No forgiveness, no appeal.' And that really cut into me, because all along I had been hoping that there might be the opportunity for an appeal despite the long sentence. And I was wondering if those words meant that the window of opportunity had closed and my fate was sealed.\"\nOn former President Clinton's arrival in North Korea\nLisa Ling: \"We're so used to seeing a jovial character, and when he descended off that plane, just to see that completely deadpan expression on his face was so out of the ordinary.\"\nLaura Ling: \"And he later said that he, in fact, had to practice [his stoicism]. That Hillary and Chelsea had to coach him so that he could maintain that look of total stoicism. We also learned that there was a whole itinerary that the North Koreans wanted [President] Clinton and his team to attend, visits to various monuments -- a whole stadium filled with child acrobatic performers. And they had to be careful to walk that line and not attend any of those events so as not to seem like they were being chummy with the North Koreans or the North Korean leader. ... And I think they walked that line very well. They stuck to the mission at hand, which was to bring us home.\"\nLisa Ling: \"No money was exchanged and no diplomacy was conducted. It truly was a private humanitarian mission.\"\nJournalists Leave Behind 'Nightmare' Of Their Lives\nBill Clinton In North Korea To Free U.S. Journalists\nNorth Korea's Labor Camps Examined\nNorth Korea Presents A Complex Challenge",

        "raw_content": "Online learning at WDMCS is \u2018just another venue\u2019 to better prepare students for the future\nAs online learning coordinator for the West Des Moines Community Schools (WDMCS), Carrie Jacobs\u2019 No. 1 goal is preparing students for whatever comes next in life.\nThrough collecting and researching data on online learning, she knows today\u2019s students will have some type of online learning experience beyond high school. Whether it\u2019s on-the-job training or completing coursework in college, students will need to know how to learn online. About 33 percent of college students are taking at least one course online, according to a 2018 survey by the Babson Survey Research Group. Last year, 41.8 percent of the enrolled student body in Iowa took at least one course online.\n\u201cWhat better way to learn online than in school right now, where it\u2019s free? If students take that online course in college and don\u2019t know how to learn online, it\u2019s a really expensive failure if they don\u2019t get through it or if they\u2019re struggling,\u201d Jacobs said. \u201cIt\u2019s just another venue for us as teachers and as K-12 institutions to better prepare them.\u201d\nWatch: Get to know Carrie Jacobs\nJacobs was part of the first WDMCS Online Learning Committee in 2014, which explores and expands online learning options for students in the district. At the time, WDMCS had offered \u201cblended\u201d courses\u2014a combination of face-to-face instruction, digital online instruction, and individualized one-on-one time. And last school year for grades 9-12, WDMCS provided its highest number of online learning opportunities: two courses at Valley Southwoods Freshman High School and nine at Valley High School.\nBut Jacobs said fewer blended courses are being offered this year in response to students\u2019 desires.\n\u201cOnce we started trying the blended courses, it\u2019s not what students were wanting. Students are wanting fully online,\u201d she explained. \u201cStudents\u2014especially younger students\u2014are wanting that advanced route. They want to be able to get high school credits when they\u2019re maxed out of their elementary standards.\u201d Jacobs used math as an example, where students needing to take pre-algebra or algebra in the past were bused to the school or used Edgenuity. Now, they are able to take it online, forming a relationship with the teacher for feedback teacher and saving the district on busing costs.\nAdditionally, Jacobs said students are opting for homeschooling and online learning due to a variety of reasons, like health and family situations.\n\u201cWe\u2019re losing those kids to open enrollment, and that\u2019s where the push to develop these fully online courses came about,\u201d Jacobs said. \u201cWe hope to better serve all students and the population that needs something different than the traditional, sit-in-the-classroom way of doing things.\u201d\nOnline and \u2018In Real Life\u2019: Learning with Digital Natives\nIn September, WDMCS announced a partnership with the city of West Des Moines, Microsoft, and T-Mobile, where mifis\u2014portable wireless devices for internet access\u2014were provided to about 200 low-income Hillside Elementary School students. The partnership is part of a larger initiative with the city and Microsoft to address broadband accessibility and affordability for students and residents in the Valley Junction neighborhood.\nCarrie Jacobs.\nJacobs hopes WDMCS continues that process, eventually being able to provide resources for all students at all schools. Over the past few years, she\u2019s compiled a comprehensive list for students and families outlining all of the local businesses, restaurants, libraries, and other places in the area that have free Wi-Fi.\nUntil then, how can students overcome obstacles when completing internet-based tasks away from school? That\u2019s where Canvas, the district\u2019s official learning management system, comes in, Jacobs said.\n\u201cOne of the reasons why we chose Canvas is that Canvas has an app, so if a student does have a smartphone, there is a Canvas app for students, parents, and teachers,\u201d she explained. \u201cSometimes if a student might not have internet at home, they have a smartphone that they can do work from.\u201d\nAnother hurdle is making sure students stay on track with their online coursework. Jacobs said online courses have the exact student-to-teacher ratio that WDMCS has in its current class offerings. The online courses will also be taken in either first or eighth periods.\n\u201cThe teacher that teaches these online courses, they will have that period as their office hours so the student isn\u2019t floundering on their own,\u201d Jacobs said. \u201cThey have a teacher that is there and able to support and help.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve built in a lot of levels of support to help these students find success and support the teacher.\u201d\nEducation | Students | Website",

        "title": "What Makes Student Housing an Attractive Bet for HNW Investors? | Wealth Management",
        "raw_content": "If Jeff Holzmann were to grade the student housing sector, he\u2019d probably give it an A+.\nHolzmann is managing director of iintoo Investments Ltd., a New York City-based network for real estate investing. The online platform enables high-net-worth (HNW) investors and others to share ownership of commercial-grade properties around the U.S., with a minimum investment of $25,000 per participant. The platform aims for an average annual return on investment of 15 percent to 20 percent (net fees).\nOn behalf of investors, Holzmann\u2019s real estate management company provides equity for multifamily, mixed-use, office, hospitality, medical and seniors housing developments. But it\u2019s especially keen on development of student housing projects in states including Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Wisconsin.\n\u201cWe love student housing. We\u2019re very big in student housing across the country. We\u2019re actually quite a large player in the space,\u201d Holzmann says. \u201cWe love it for the economics of it, we love it for the stability of it and, quite frankly, there\u2019s a lot of opportunities for investors such as ourselves to participate.\u201d\nThose opportunities are fairly abundant. While development of student housing has fallen off its torrid pace of 2012 and 2013, the sector remains a draw for inntoo and other investors. In 2017, the number of student housing beds completed in the U.S. totaled about 45,500, with around the same number of beds predicted to be delivered this year, according to RealPage Analytics.\nHolzmann says inntoo doesn\u2019t jump at every student housing development that comes along, though. Each deal must be \u201cunderwritten to perfection,\u201d he notes.\nIn a Q&A with NREI, Holzmann explains why student housing is his favorite asset class, why his company won\u2019t get sucked into just any student housing deal and why he forecasts some near-term saturation and over-capitalization in the student housing sector.\nThis Q&A has been edited for length, style and clarity.\nNREI: Is student housing your favorite asset class?\nJeff Holzmann: Without a doubt, student housing is No. 1 on my list. That\u2019s me personally\u2014that\u2019s Jeff Holzmann speaking. I can tell you that as a company, we love those types of assets, but we\u2019re not suckers. It doesn\u2019t mean from an investment perspective that anybody who\u2019s building student housing, we\u2019re going to be all over it. I still have to underwrite the specific deal and make sure that it\u2019s based on merit. We still have to go into that market\u2014I\u2019ll send somebody out, boots on the ground\u2014to make sure that the college or university that\u2019s right next door is experiencing growth in enrollment. I also would want to make sure that the market is not saturated. Somebody could be building a phenomenal student housing complex, but there\u2019s absolutely no need for it because there are so many beds available in the immediate vicinity of the academic institution.\nNREI: Why is student housing an area of focus for your company?\nJeff Holzmann: I\u2019m personally invested in some of our projects in the student housing space. When I say me personally, I don\u2019t get any discounts, so I\u2019m investing at the exact same dollar amount that our clients are participating at.\nI love student housing mostly because it\u2019s a submarket of real estate within real estate. What does that mean? At the end of the day, you\u2019re talking about a real estate asset where people live and sleep, but it doesn\u2019t behave in direct correlation to the residential market in that area.\nLet\u2019s say the economy is in a time of contraction. People on the whole earn less money, which means they have less money for paying rent and other expenses. Well, guess what? The job market tends to be inversely correlated to the education market, so when the economy is contracting and people can\u2019t find good, steady, high-paying jobs, what do they do? They go back to school, or they delay going into the job market and stay in school and get an extra degree or a higher degree.\nSo, if you\u2019re sitting on a student housing asset that is in the immediate vicinity of a prime academic institution, you\u2019re probably going to see a more stable return and stable demand even when the economy as a whole is in a time of contraction.\nAnother one of the reasons we like the sector so much is because this type of real estate asset has significantly less vulnerability. Significantly fewer people get up in the morning and decide to leave their academic institution in the middle of the academic year and run away from the liability of paying rent. When you talk about student housing, you usually rent out by the bed or by the room and not by the unit. So, even if one person moves out or one person is expelled from school, they\u2019re a lot easier to replace.\nNREI: What\u2019s the typical dollar range you\u2019re seeking for student housing deals?\nJeff Holzmann: With student housing, on a per-complex basis, you\u2019re at the sub-institutional size. You\u2019re not building a $650 million student housing complex next to a university in the Midwest. Those are not the economics. You\u2019re usually talking about assets that are in the range of $20 million to $75 million\u2014all-in total cost to build. We\u2019re in the business of funding the equity piece, which is usually about 30 percent of the total cost, given a 70 percent LTV.\nNREI: What\u2019s your forecast for the student housing market?\nJeff Holzmann: It\u2019s a market that\u2019s currently experiencing growth. Some of it is obviously hyped, because we\u2019re seeing so much demand. Over time, probably in a year or two, there\u2019s going to be some saturation and over-capitalization in this market. Too many people are pouring money into this market, because they hear from other people that it\u2019s a good idea, they read in the paper that it\u2019s a good idea, but they don\u2019t necessarily understand it.\nSome sponsors think it\u2019s a quick buck, it\u2019s easy money. They\u2019ll build to lower standards, but that will not survive, and over time the market will correct itself and find equilibrium. It\u2019s a great market to invest in, but only with the right partner. Do not pour your money into just anything that has the name \u201cstudent housing\u201d on it, because individually it could be a bad idea.",

        "raw_content": "Habitat for Humanity Celebrates 25 Years of Service\nOver the past quarter century, countless hammers have been swung to build homes for northern Colorado\u2019s families in need. This year, Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity is celebrating their 25th anniversary.\nIf only walls could talk, the many homes that Habitat has built would tell exceptional stories. Founded on the notion that every individual should have access to safe and affordable housing, thousands of volunteers, donors, businesses and individuals have joined forces to bring this vision to reality.\nEarlier this year, Habitat celebrated their 25th anniversary by sharing cherished stories from those who have been positively impacted by their work. Some favorites include:\nDENISE, an aspiring kindergarten teacher, was working hard to make ends meet while raising her two young children. It was not until Habitat lent her a helping hand that she was able to move away from her income-based rental unit in a location unfit for children.\n\u201cI remember being in my apartment right before Thanksgiving. The kids were in bed and it was dark outside, when through the silence I heard a knock at the door. Ordinarily, in my neighborhood, I never would have answered it, but through the peephole I saw one face that I recognized, but the rest were strangers with big smiles on their faces and, I don\u2019t know, I just knew I had to open it.\u201d\nDenise was greeted with the news that she had been selected as a Habitat home recipient and was handed three bright yellow hard hats\u2014one of her and each of her two children. Their new home eventually provided the affordable stability needed for Denise to chase her dreams and provide for her children.\nROYCE, now 80 years old, began volunteering at Habitat for Humanity ReStrore shortly after he retired. Royce has been volunteering for over a decade, and in that time the ReStore has helped him just as much as he has helped them. After his second home was destroyed in 2012 in the Rist Canyon wildfire, he knew he could turn to the ReStore to help him outfit a new build with most of the home necessities at a low price.\n\u201cHabitat was a worthy cause in my eyes, and I needed something to keep me active,\u201d Royce said. \u201cThis was the perfect fit because I love meeting new people, and on the truck, I get to see new faces every day, no two days are alike.\u201d\nTHE BLENKERS FAMILY, renting a small two-bedroom condo that they shared with their three children, dreamed of having a home they could turn into a light show during the holiday season. Eventually, after being selected as a Habitat home recipient, their dreams came true. Now, 12 years later, their holiday d\u00e9cor has become an annual spectacle that has grown to become a fundraiser called Lights for Habitat. So far it has raised nearly $15,000 for Habitat.\n\u201cHabitat was an amazing opportunity for our big family, and we\u2019re happy to support their mission. We\u2019ll do this display until we physically can\u2019t anymore, and then I bet our kids will happily follow in our footsteps,\u201d Hans said.\nWithout the help of so many members in our community, none of these stories would have surfaced.\nTurning their eye towards the next 25 years ahead, Habitat intends to keep creating more stories of success. Community members are encouraged to help by donating this holiday season. With Colorado Gives Day, Giving Tuesday and year-end giving on the horizon, there will be plenty of opportunities to make an impact with your donation. Every dollar given will be amplified through their matching funds challenge of up to $250,000 matched by the year-end. Give today!",

        "title": "Why Dental Implants in Fort Worth are the Most Cost-Effective",
        "raw_content": "Why Dental Implants in Fort Worth are the Most Cost-Effective\nMany patients get intimidated by the price and process of dental implants, but your dentist wanted to give a few reasons why their price can be misleading. It\u2019s true that the upfront cost for dental implants is high, but the key is to pay attention to their long-term aspect. Unlike other tooth replacement options, such as dentures or dental bridges, you\u2019ll be getting a solution that is less expensive after factoring in replacement costs, wear and tear, function, and aesthetic.\nHere\u2019s why you should consider dental implants in Fort Worth first and foremost.\nThe Pitfalls of Dentures\nDentures have become popular over the years due to their quick solution to tooth loss and low upfront cost. However, many patients believe they can make their dentures last forever, even though their average lifespan is between 5 and 7 years. That\u2019s assuming that you make the effort to give them proper care. In most cases, patients need to replace them sooner either because they become damaged from poor care, or because they no longer fit.\nTo make them fit, your dentist needs to reline them with new material or reshape them so they don\u2019t cause damage to your gum tissue. That means you\u2019re spending a couple thousand dollars every year, which can start to add up quite quickly. That doesn\u2019t include the cost of relining and replacing dentures if they don\u2019t fit anymore or become damaged.\nWhy Bridges Don\u2019t Stack Up\nDental bridges run into a similar problem. While they are great for replacing multiple teeth at a time, they will eventually require replacement after a certain time. They typically last for about 10 to 15 years, but this also depends on your oral care and your health prior to treatment. Unlike implants, dental bridges also don\u2019t provide all of the same benefits, other than improving your smile\u2019s appearance, make chewing easier, and prevent remaining teeth from shifting.\nDental bridges can cost between $3,000 and $3,600 when totaling all the restorations needed to make them. Replacing them every 10 years will cost you close to $10,000 over a thirty-year period. All the parts necessary for dental implants will cost between $3,500 and $5,500, but have almost no replacement costs over the same period. With regular oral care, implants can save you thousands compared to bridges.\nHow Dental Implants Provide the Best Solution\nNot only do you not have to worry about replacing or adjusting your dental implants in Fort Worth regularly, but you get superior functionality and aesthetic compared to dentures and dental bridges. Unlike these options, dental implants:\nPrevent bone resorption\nAllow blood flow to continue to the face and cheeks\nOffer a more natural-feeling replacement\nWhile the cost is high upfront, you\u2019ll only be forced to pay more in the long-term. Schedule an appointment with your implant dentist in Fort Worth to get started and learn your eligibility today!\nDr. John G. Boyd earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Texas Dental Branch in Houston. He\u2019s also a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, which helps him stay updated on the best techniques for making your smile look perfectly restored.

        "raw_content": "George Washington\u2019s Church Removing Plaque Honoring Him: Want \u2018Welcoming\u2019 Worship Space\nChrist Church in Alexandria, Virginia, where George Washington worshiped and served as a vestryman, announced plans this week to remove a plaque honoring its most famous congregant and the nation\u2019s first president.\nIn a letter to parishioners, the vestry for the Episcopal congregation explained it had spent the month of September conducting listening sessions and communicating with members through emails and phone calls before coming to the unanimous decision.\n\u201cMany in our congregation feel a strong need for the church to stand clearly on the side of \u2018All are welcome \u2014 no exceptions,\u2019\u201d the letter explained.\n\u201cBecause the sanctuary is a worship space, not a museum, there is no appropriate way to inform visitors about the history of the plaques or to provide additional context except for the in-person tours provided by our docents.\u201d\nChrist Church, Alexandria VA \u2013 George Washington & Robert E Lee both attended services here pic.twitter.com/48rCsU2RQM\n\u2014 BrightPath Tours (@BrightPathTours) August 13, 2016\nThe leaders recounted that the plaque was placed in 1870 at the same time one for Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee was added in the sanctuary.\nThe church recognized Washington and Lee lived in different times and were, \u201clike all of us, a child of God,\u201d nonetheless, \u201cToday, the legacy of slavery and of the Confederacy is understood differently than it was in 1870.\u201d\n\u201cFor some, Lee symbolizes the attempt to overthrow the Union and to preserve slavery. Today our country is trying once again to come to grips with the history of slavery and the subsequent disenfranchisement of people of color,\u201d the vestry said.\nRobert E. Lee was confirmed in the Christ Church in Alexandria, Virginia in 1853. Memories, memorials, commemoration. #TeachReconstruction pic.twitter.com/7ZittGpF8Q\n\u2014 Mark J. Westpfahl (@MarkJWestpfahl) July 27, 2017\nThe leaders promised the plaques would not be destroyed or placed in storage, \u201cRather, they will remain in the church until they can be relocated to a place of respectful prominence where they will be fully visible to parishioners and tourists alike.\u201d\n\u201cAnd ultimately, they will be incorporated into a more complete presentation of our long and many-faceted history,\u201d they stated.\nWhile Washington was a slave holder his entire life, he appeared to grow increasingly aware that the institution was wrong and needed to end.\nIn response to a letter from the Marquis de La Fayette after the Revolutionary War in 1786 asking why the slaves could not be freed, the former commander in chief of the Continental Army wrote, \u201cWould to God a like spirit (to liberate the slaves) would diffuse itself generally into the minds of the people of this country; but I despair seeing it.\u201d\nWashington noted that bills had been introduced in the Virginia legislature, but they could barely get a reading.\nThe retired general felt that if all the slaves were set free at once a chaotic situation would be created, leading to \u201cmuch inconvenience and mischief\u201d (probably referring to homelessness, poverty, and crime due to the newly released slaves\u2019 dire circumstances).\nInstead, Washington believed that a gradual plan, like those implemented in northern states, would best allow the former slaves to assimilate into society.\nThat same year, Washington also wrote Pennsylvania legislator and signer of the Declaration of Independence Robert Morris, stating, \u201cThere is not a man living who wishes more sincerely than I do, to see a plan adopted for the abolition of it; but there is only one effectual mode by which it can be accomplished, and that by Legislative authority; and this as far as my suffrage is concerned will never be wanting.\u201d\nFollowing the war, Washington decided never to purchase a slave again. Then, the general concluded that the whole idea of marketing human beings was wrong and chose not to sell slaves anymore. This resolve cost him in later life, as the slave families on his plantation grew in numbers beyond what the plantation could support.\nIn his will, Washington freed his slaves, and he included provisions in the will for those who wanted to learn a trade and those who were infirm or too old to work.\nIn August, following the riots in Charlottesville surrounding the removal of a statue of Lee, President Donald Trump questioned whether calls to remove Washington statues would soon follow.\n\u201cThis week it\u2019s Robert E. Lee,\u201d he said, according to The Hill. \u201cI noticed that Stonewall Jackson is coming down. I wonder is it George Washington next week and is it Thomas Jefferson the week after? You know, you really do have to ask yourself, where does it stop?\u201d\nTags: Donald Trump, George Washington, God, Slavery, Virginia\nSource: Christ Church, Mount Vernon, and The Hill",

        "title": "25 big ideas for 2012: Social design and Facebook's next big move | WIRED UK",
        "raw_content": "25 big ideas for 2012: Social design and Facebook's next big move\nWhen Mark Zuckerberg took to the stage at the eG8 conference in Paris last May, he explained why social-gaming company Zynga was now worth more than EA, the market incumbent. \"They understood that people want to play with their friends [so] they make games with social baked in,\" said the Facebook CEO. \"Gaming is a naturally social thing. Movies, TV, news, books -- those are [also] things people just naturally do with their friends. These applications and industries will be more social in the next few years.\"\nOne by one, Zuckerberg said, all sorts of businesses would be reinvented around the social graph. \"We have this principle that we call social design at the company,\" he said. \"A lot of the ways that you design social products are fundamentally different from the normal interactions that you would design in other products.\" Take friend requests. Feedback had taught the company to offer \"accept\" and \"not now\", rather than a traditional \"yes\" or \"no\". \"It makes people feel less bad about rejecting requests,\" he said. \"There's a lot of things like that that tap into the social nature of humans. This principle of social design is going to be baked into all of these different social applications going forward.\"\nWelcome to the age of social design. If Facebook is right, industries from media to medical care will need to transform their business processes in response to the dominance of social networks. \"At the core of social design is the thesis that the web is being rebuilt around people,\" says Dan Rose, VP of partnerships and platform marketing at the company. \"Over the last five years, as people's identities have moved online, the information web has given way to the social web.\nThey're able to engage with content in a more natural way, through serendipitous interaction with friends and acquaintances. We're moving from the 'what' to the 'who', from the wisdom of crowds to the wisdom of friends.\"\nThe term, championed internally by VP of product Chris Cox, emerged from the unexpected success of Facebook's photo-tagging app. Within months, the ability to share photos socially had made Facebook the web's largest photo library. \"When Mark saw the success of the photo application, he thought about all the other products that could benefit from making them social,\" Rose says. \"The list was too long for us to do ourselves.\nThat's why we launched the Facebook platform -- to unlock the innovation of other entrepreneurs. Every category on the web will be impacted by this new design principle.\"\nFirst came gaming, then online retail and media. \"From there, every business on the internet can be designed around putting people at the centre -- commerce, travel, all can be rethought,\" says Rose. In practice, it typically involves letting friends influence each other based on their purchasing or browsing history or \"likes\". Spotify lets you discover the music your friends like; room-rental service Airbnb lets you filter transactions through friends whose friends may have stayed there; Trippy lets you plan a journey around personal recommendations; Appsfire lets you know what apps your peers are downloading; Flipboard turns links recommended by friends into a personalised digital magazine. \"Every company we engage with has a question at board level about what their Facebook strategy is,\" says Christian Hernandez, the firm's head of international business development. \"What does it mean for a utility company trying to get new users, a bank, a private-equity shop looking where to invest next? What vertical is not inherently social? Even financial services are: if John who knows a lot about finance recommends an accountant, that has weight.\"\nLonger term, says Hernandez, your social graph will influence everything from the restaurant you eat in to where you educate your children. At that stage, the social graph, like electricity and water, \"becomes a utility, a service needed in your life\".\nAlready the company wields dozens of case studies as evidence that social design drives transactions. Outdoor sporting- goods retailer Giantnerd doubled revenue through Facebook within two weeks of adding the Like button, it says; social-recruitment service BranchOut, through which friends are recommended for jobs, grew from 10,000 to 250,000 users in a month. The model will transform traditional expectations of advertising, Hernandez predicts. \"Today you target ads to me based on a cookie, which is based on assumptions,\" he says. \"If I'm 34 and female or 24 and male, that should trigger different commercial offers. It doesn't. Social design will at some stage catch up and better target the consumer.\"\nOn the Facebook developers' blog, a post (Liked 17,157 times) explains that social design consists of three elements: identity, conversation and community. \"Community refers to the people we know and trust and who help us to make decisions,\" it says. \"Conversation refers to the interactions we have with our communities. Identity refers to our sense of self and how we are seen by our communities.\"\nPrivacy advocates worry about the intrusive nature of such thinking. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that widgets such as the Like button can potentially track internet users and link their web-browsing habits to their social-networking profile, even if they do not click the Like button. But Dan Rose is on a mission. \"This is the most important thing we're working on in terms of the Facebook platform,\" he says. \"Our focus is to enable lots of companies and lots of industries to reinvent their product and their business through the lens of people and friends. The next 12 months will unleash a huge number of companies doing this.\"\nExplore more: Big Ideas For 2012\nApple's patent for a touchscreen Macbook keyboard gives us a glimpse at the future of laptops\nAva DuVernay's New Gods film could be exactly what DC needs",

        "title": "Jack Dorsey on ProPublica's Experimental Journalism | WIRED",
        "raw_content": "Jack Dorsey on ProPublica's Experimental Journalism\nAuthor: Jack DorseyJack Dorsey\nJack Dorsey, cofounder of Twitter\nProPublica, investigative journalism nonprofit\nI discovered ProPublica about two years ago and became interested in it right away because of its mission: To expose abuses of power and betrayals of the public trust by government, business, and other institutions, using the moral force of investigative journalism. It\u2019s independent, it\u2019s nonpartisan, and it\u2019s powered mainly by philanthropy. ProPublica actually measures success by whether it sparks real-world change. This was a new take on a business model that I hadn\u2019t really thought a lot about.\nThe most recent ProPublica story that stood out to me was the publication of the audiotape of immigrant children being held in a US Customs and Border Protection facility. There have also been a number of stories on wrongfully convicted folks that have prompted cases to be reopened.\nTweet by @jack on 8/8/18:\n\u201cWe certainly have a lot of work to do to help journalists do their jobs better. That\u2019s our intent. Help with reach, balance, and economic incentives. We\u2019re behind on those last two.\u201d\nI\u2019ve watched how they use Twitter\u2019s technology. Twitter\u2019s superpower is conversation; it\u2019s carrying the chatter. So traditionally, journalists write a few characters and tweet a link to their article and that\u2019s it. But ProPublica threads the key parts of an article, so you end up with a thread that\u2019s 10 tweets long. We asked them why they do that and they said, \u201cWe\u2019re going to meet people where they are. They\u2019re coming to a service that is focused on brevity, so we need to translate our stories into that format.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a creative use of a technology that doesn\u2019t intuitively seem to fit with traditional journalism. That\u2019s definitely more of a risk if your business is based on advertising and sending people to your site. But ProPublica has been doing this for over 10 years. And I think there\u2019s a lot for us to learn in terms of what that means for media. A donation-driven news outlet may seem extreme, but it\u2019s important right now to experiment. This is an experiment that\u2019s done quite well. \u2014As told to Lauren Goode\nOpening essay by Clive Thompson: The dawn of Twitter and the age of awareness\nJennifer Pahlka and Anand Giridharadas: Less elite philanthropy, more democracy\nElizabeth Blackburn and Janelle Ayres: Germs gone good\nKai-Fu Lee and Fei-Fei Li: Bringing humanity to AI\nKevin Systrom and Karlie Kloss: Closing the gender gap\n#propublica\n#jack dorsey",

        "title": "'It's in the Quran,' says Muslim who beheaded Oklahoma co-worker - WND",
        "raw_content": "'It's in the Quran,' says Muslim who beheaded Oklahoma co-worker\n'You know all I was doing was ... what I was supposed to do'\nAlton Nolen beheaded a female co-worker in Oklahoma in September 2014 and tried to behead a second co-worker before being shot by a supervisor. His murder trial this week has attracted almost no national media coverage. Photo/Facebook\nWas Alton Nolen mentally ill when he beheaded a female co-worker and tried to behead a second woman at a food plant in Oklahoma on Sept. 25, 2014, or was he simply being a good Muslim by following the dictates of the Quran?\nThat\u2019s the issue the jury will have to decide in the 33-year-old Muslim convert\u2019s trial, which opened last week and continued Monday in Norman, Oklahoma.\nNolen told police in 2014 he beheaded his co-worker, Colleen Hufford, and tried to behead another woman at the plant because he felt \u201coppressed\u201d as a Muslim.\n\u201cYou know all I was doing was \u2026 what I was supposed to do as a Muslim,\u201d Nolen said. \u201cIt\u2019s in the Quran.\u201d\nThere were reports at after the incident that Nolen had tried to convert several of his co-workers to Islam and they were not receptive, which may have fueled his rage.\nNolen\u2019s court-appointed attorneys are now asking the jury to find him not guilty by reason of insanity. They argued he is mentally ill and believed what he was doing was right because of \u201cdelusional misinterpretations of Islamic teachings,\u201d according to the Oklahoman, a local newspaper covering the trial.\nAn expert witness took the stand Monday on behalf of the defense and told the jury that the Quran contains no instructions for Muslims kill unbelievers by beheading unless it is a time of war.\n\u201cIt does not exist,\u201d said Robert Hunt, a professor at Southern Methodist University who calls himself an expert on Islamic beliefs.\nFor Nolen to believe otherwise makes him insane, according to the defense.\nOthers would argue that Nolen is perfectly sane because he was doing exactly as the Quran instructs \u2013 no delusions required.\nIn fact, the district attorney argued just that on Monday, pressing the \u201cexpert\u201d professor on whether he thought ISIS fighters were insane when they beheaded men and boys. Or what about Boko Haram in Nigeria, or al-Shabab in Somalia? Are they all insane?\nThe SMU professor responded saying Nolan\u2019s beliefs about his Islamic faith are \u201cnovel.\u201d\nPhilip Haney, a retired Homeland Security expert on Islamic doctrine and an Arabic speaker, told WND that Professor Hunt of Southern Methodist is clearly under his own delusion about the teachings of the Quran and was doing a disservice by trying to mislead the jury on what devout Muslims are taught in many mosques.\nAlton Nolen beheaded female co-worker Colleen Hufford at a food plant in Moore, Oklahoma, on Sept. 25, 2014\nAnd Nolen is very devout. From his prison photo it is clear that he prays five times a day in the required prostrate position, which is evidenced by the Zabiba or small bruise on his forehead. This is the mark of a devout believer in Islam.\n\u201cThe blindness of [the SMU professor] is astonishing. Mr. Nolen is not just randomly pulling these doctrines out of the air, this guy is a dedicated Muslim,\u201d Haney said.\nThe FBI interviewers were seeking to determine if anyone had taught Nolen that beheading an \u201coppressor\u201d is acceptable or may have guided him to those beliefs.\n\u201cUh, no,\u201d Nolen responded. \u201cI read the Quran. Like I say, the Quran is easy to understand. \u2026 No one guides me but Allah.\u201d\nWhat Nolen appears to be referring to is Quran verse 2:191 about the \u201cfitnah,\u201d which is Arabic for an \u201coppression\u201d or \u201cpersecution\u201d brought on by an unbeliever, meaning a non-Muslim.\nSura 2:291 states:\n\u201cAnd slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith.\u201d\nNolen felt like certain co-workers were suppressing his faith, Haney said.\nNolen, who worked at the Vaughan Foods food-processing plant in Moore, Oklahoma, is accused of beheading Hufford, 54, and attempting to behead Traci Johnson, 43.\nJohnson\u2019s life was saved when Mark Vaughan, the chief operating officer of the company and a reserve sheriff\u2019s deputy, shot and wounded Nolen as he repeatedly stabbed Johnson, according to testimony at the trial.\nNolen is charged with first-degree murder and assault and battery with a deadly weapon. He may also face federal charges if the Justice Department decides his attack was an act of terrorism.\nNolen was interviewed twice at the hospital while recovering from his gunshot wounds.\nIn the first interview, he admitted to the FBI that he regularly watched Islamic beheadings on YouTube, including those done by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.\nThe attack brought national attention in 2014, but three years later no national media outlets seem to be giving the trial primetime coverage.\n\u201cMainstream media is not doing their job,\u201d Haney said. \u201cThey should be covering this trial and asking, \u2018What do you mean by oppression? What is this concept and where is it in the Quran? What is the source of what he says he believes in \u2026 instead of these vague statements that he is oppressed? Where is the natural curiosity of the press? For the press, that\u2019s like an atomic nitro glycerin. When a devout Muslim who is Shariah-compliant says he\u2019s oppressed, you\u2019re watching a ticking bomb. This guy is a convert. How on earth did he pick up that Quranic concept so quickly? He just swallowed it up like a sponge, this view that some other worldview is oppressing him. And then you have the Muslim community telling him he has the right to lash out like he did, to kill them, if they are oppressing you.\u201d\nAssigning the violence of Muslims to mental illness is the knee-jerk reaction of today\u2019s media and most law enforcement, he said.\n\u201cThat\u2019s just another way to gloss over the truth,\u201d Haney said. \u201cPeople are going to scream about it and say that\u2019s not true, so we\u2019re going to miss these warning signals [from potential terrorists].\u201d",

        "title": "Anna Winek \u2013 Nutrition For Life - Women Talking",
        "raw_content": "Anna Winek \u2013 Nutrition For Life\nKeeping fit isn\u2019t just about pacing the treadmill and managing weights. The secret to looking good on the outside is managing what goes inside. I\u2019ve always found it amazing that many people will be more careful about the grade of fuel they put into their vehicles than the quality of food they put into their mouths.\nAnna Winek is a London based nutritional therapist with a passion for food and healthy eating. We caught up with her to try and find out a little more information around the importance of diet.\nCan you tell us when you first became interested in health and diet?\n\u201cI was brought up on the principles of the Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) diet: fermented foods, raw milk, organic fruits and vegetables, walking barefoot by the river, foraging, outdoor activities and watching my cousins having their cupping done.\n\u201cBack in Poland where I come from, I started reading books on detoxification. I followed some of the cleansing programs and started juicing, inspired by The Gerson Therapy book. I think my interest grew from there.\n\u201cNine years ago, when I moved to the UK, I started working in health food stores \u2013 which is how my nutrition and health journey started. I was continuously expanding my knowledge of nutrition, physio-therapy, different type of foods and sports nutrition. I was fortunate to be able to attend various training courses and seminars provided by the company. My job became my passion and my lifestyle.\u201d\nHow important is what we eat to our health?\n\u201cGood nutrition is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. As Ann Wigmore said, \u201cThe food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison''.\n\u201cNutrients and other food components influence the function of the body, protect against disease and restore health. Under certain circumstances and in some individuals, diet can be a serious risk factor for a number of diseases. The degree to which diet influences the balance between healthy and disease states may depend on an individual\u2019s genetics.\u201d\nAre there any common symptoms people can identify when assessing when a condition could be more about diet?\n\u201cMalnutrition and Over-nutrition. Malnutrition is a serious condition that occurs when a person's diet doesn't contain the right amount of nutrients. It refers to undernutrition \u2013 when you don't get enough nutrients. Over-nutrition is when you get more nutrients than you need.\n\u201cMalnutrition is caused by having an inadequate diet or a problem absorbing nutrients from food. There are many reasons why these might happen, including having reduced mobility, a long-term health condition, or a low income. The most common symptoms are: weight loss, weak muscles, feeling tired all the time, low mood or an increase in illnesses or infections.\n\u201cWhen it comes to over-nutrition the main sign is being overweight or obese. However, people with undernutrition can also be overweight if they eat a diet high in calories but low in other nutrients. Over-nutrition can increase serious and potentially life-threatening conditions, such as Type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, some types of cancer such as bowel cancer or stroke. Over-nutrition and obesity which comes with it can also affect the quality of life (mobility) and can lead to psychological problems, such as depression.\u201d\nDo you feel the food we consume has also changed?\n\u201cYes, absolutely. Foods, we eat today are not the same as foods of 50 years ago. Modern agriculture, factory farmed animals, use of growth hormones, antibiotics and genetically modified feed were never fed to animals.\n\u201cConventionally farmed fruits and vegetables contain far fewer vitamins and minerals than they did 50 years ago. The health of the soil is crucial to its fertility. Healthy soil is full of life but with chemical sprays being used and intensive farming the soil is damaged. Healthy soil not only helps to prevent flooding but can also store water so that crops have a longer life. Every time you shop you make choices not only about your dinner but the future of the planet. I would always recommend purchasing soil friendly, organically grown products. To eat like our grandparents, we must look for organic fruits and vegetables, grass-fed meat, eggs and dairy.\u201d\nHow do you go about treating a client who comes to you?\n\u201cBefore the first consultation, I provide a health and nutrition questionnaire for the client to complete. An initial consultation typically lasts 60 minutes where I ask detailed questions such as: current health concerns, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, medical history, family history, lifestyle, levels of physical activity, use of medication and diet supplements.\n\u201cI use functional tests (blood, urine, saliva) to assess a client's imbalances that could be at the root of their health issues. Follow up consultations are generally after four weeks in order to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments. Further follow-ups may be required depending on each individual situation.\n\u201cI consider each person to be unique and recommend personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes. I never recommend nutritional therapy as a replacement for medical advice and I always refer any client with \u2018red flag\u2019 signs or symptoms to their GP.\u201d\nDiets can often seem quite short-term. How can you encourage clients to stick to a regime?\n\u201cFirstly, I never promote fad diets, especially when it comes to weight loss and people wanting to see quick results. Often, restrictive diets only focus on short-term results, so you eventually end up putting the weight back on.\n\u201cI promote a balanced diet and healthy eating so it keeps people satisfied. (Take a look at the healthy plate British Association for Applied Nutrition & Nutritional Therapy BANT http://bant.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/FIGHT-THE-FAT-IMAGE.jpg).\n\u201cI educate my clients about healthy food choices, I consider it to be more about a lifestyle than the short-term diet. However, I use short term diets to help with specific health conditions. If I witness my client having a difficult time making healthy changes, we go back and review it. If the client is able to make only one small change at a time, we follow that. The whole process may be too difficult to handle if the client attempts too many changes at once.\u201d\nThe New Year is often a time when people decide to make changes to their lifestyle. How are you able to help in this regard?\n\u201cWorking with a nutritional therapist can help people make long-lasting lifestyle changes in how they approach what foods work best for their body. Whether they are looking to resolve a specific health issue or want to optimise their current state of health I can help them get to the root cause of any concerns so that they can feel more energised. I can educate them about healthy options, food alternatives, mindful eating and I offer a full range of diagnostic testing, including Food Intolerance testing, and individualised treatment plans to help address any underlying issues.\u201d\nIs the modern world and the problems we associate with it often more about just than diet?\n\u201cModern-day cooking allows far less time than we used to enjoy years before. Convenience food have become much more popular, with people reaching for microwave meals several times a week. Many people in the modern world don\u2019t make time for food, often because they see it as being too time consuming but cooking fresh food doesn\u2019t have to take hours.\n\u201cWe spend a lot more of our days dining out at restaurants than we did in the past. We consume more calories when we dine out in comparison to when we eat at home. Modern life is all about the sedentary lifestyle \u2013 many of us drive to work, sit at a desk all day, drive home and then sit in front of the TV, computer or indulge in console gaming until we go to bed. This applies to eating dinner in front of the TV or while using a smartphone which may increase our appetite so we're more likely to snack later. We know from several studies that distraction can increase the amount that people consume in a meal.\u201d\nWhat is your opinion on technology in this area?\n\u201cMicrowaves are a form of electromagnetic field (EMF). Many microwavable foods are processed and in packaging that contains an assortment of chemicals, for example BPA. At high temperatures, it is likely that chemicals can absorb into the food. BPA disrupts normal hormone activity. Instead of microwaving when you do cook, try steaming and baking as your main cooking methods.\n\u201cSwiss clinical trials have found that microwaving food increases cholesterol levels. It was also found to decrease red and white blood cell counts. Some studies have found that microwaving destroys nutrients. A study in 2003 broccoli cooked in the microwave with a little water and it was found to have lost up to 97 % of its beneficial antioxidants. By comparison, conventionally steamed broccoli lost only 11 %. Another study showed that 60 seconds of microwave heating was enough to inactivate the alliinase in garlic. Microwaves also cause a higher degree of \"protein unfolding\" according to another study.\n\u201cIn 2010, another study documented immediate changes in heart rate caused by microwaves and radiation emitted by Wi-Fi routers. Excessive free radicals triggered by low-frequency microwave exposure from mobiles and Wi-Fi networks have been linked to chronic diseases such as cardiac arrhythmias, anxiety, depression, autism, Alzheimer\u2019s and infertility.\u201d\nClearly, not only are we what we eat but our digital consumption also appears to have a worrying effect on our state of health. Anna confided in me that she switches her phone to flight mode and turns off her Wi-Fi router overnight.\nAre there any specific food products you feel we need to moderate more?\n\u201cSugar - it is the substance that humans ingest that has no nutritional value, no essential fats, no protein, no vitamins, no minerals. Other foods we need to be aware of include:\nProcessed food such as ready meals, microwave food which I have already explained. The danger of packaging that contains an assortment of chemicals eg. BPA. At high temperatures, it is likely that chemicals can absorb into the food.\nCanned food - decreased nutritional value, most of the canned vegetables are stripped of fibre and other nutrients and loaded with sodium. If you need the convenience of canned vegetables, opt for frozen instead. Canned fruits loaded with heavy syrups should be another no-no.\nProcessed fruit drinks loaded with sugar, empty calories and artificial sweeteners.\nRefined grains\u2014which include white bread, pasta, rice\u2014the bran and germ are stripped away. This type of grain has a higher glycemic index, meaning the sugars can be absorbed into the bloodstream faster, often causing a spike in blood sugar levels.\nSugary cereal.\nProcessed meat like deli meats, hot dogs, sausages tend to be high in sodium, preservatives, and saturated fats.\nProcessed cheeses are high in sodium.\nTrans fats are found in fried foods, baked goods, and processed snack foods. Trans fats raise your LDL (bad) cholesterol levels while lowering your HDL (good) cholesterol and eating lots of them increases your risk of heart disease and stroke.\nBritain has been identified as having one of the fastest growing rates of obesity? What would you attribute that to?\n\u201cThe cause of rising obesity in the UK has been blamed on our modern lifestyles, including our reliance on the car and very limited activities. We can probably also look to TVs, computers, longer working hours and desk-bound jobs, that all contribute towards us consuming high-calorie foods.\nWhat food groups should we look to consume more of?\n\u201cOur healthy plate should consist of 1/4 of leafy greens and salads, 1/4 of other vegetables such as onion, cauliflower, zucchini, 1-3 palm size portions of fruit a day (choose different colour and eat locally and seasonally). 1/4 root vegetables and whole grains (like wild and brown rice, whole oats, quinoa). 1/4 protein like wild fish, organic free range poultry and eggs all of which should be your principle source of protein. Eat pulses (lentils, beans, chickpeas) and nuts and seeds as vegetable protein. Limit dairy to a small matchbox of cheese, half a cup of live unsweetened yoghurt or a small glass of milk a day. Use olive oil as your everyday fat for seasoning, and clarified butter (ghee) for cooking. Eat raw nuts, seeds and avocado. (See healthy plate by British Association for Applied Nutrition & Nutritional Therapy BANT http://bant.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/WELLNESS-SOLUTION-IMAGE.jpg).\nIs there any advantage to either a vegan or vegetarian diet over an omnivore one?\n\u201cHumans are natural-born omnivores, but some people choose to become vegetarian or vegan. There are pros and cons to each diet. There is a protein difference as meat is a complete protein, containing all the essential amino acids. Most plant-based foods have some essential amino acids but not others, so vegetarians may need to combine plant-based protein foods - for example, legumes and grains or seeds -- to get the essential amino acids available in meat, eggs and dairy. Vitamin B-12 is generally found only in animal products, so supplementation is necessary for a vegan diet and in some vegetarian diets.\n\u201cTrans fats and saturated fats are present in some meat and dairy products and can cause high cholesterol levels and lead to possible heart problems. Vegetable-rich diets, however, offer antioxidants and other health benefits such as reduced risk of the following conditions: atherosclerosis, cancers (colon cancer or breast cancer), coronary artery disease, hypertension (high blood pressure), insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. Whether you choose vegan, vegetarian or omnivore diet it's valuable to make vegetables a priority. Complement that with about 25 percent whole grains and 25 percent healthy proteins.\u201d\nDo you feel there is a growing interest in food from the general public?\n\u201cYes, definitely. Public concern about pesticides in food has increased dramatically. People are looking into healthy options, ordering their seasonal fruits and vegetables or organic grass-fed meat from local suppliers.\n\u201cI see a growing interest in the food shows such as ''VegFest'' in London - one of the biggest vegan festival in Europe. There is also the Free From and Allergy show in London and other big cities in the UK, which are only growing in popularity. People are more aware and better educated. Health food shops, juice bars and healthy dining are booming in London and this is simply because there is a demand for them.\u201d\nWhat advice would you give to anyone looking to change their eating habits?\n\u201cChanging eating habits can be hard and may take time. Think about the long-term health benefits and long-term changes. If you intend to do this then make a plan, with a list of new foods you are going to introduce. Start with small changes.\nEliminate sugar and processed foods for 2 weeks and keep food log wherever possible.\nNever go grocery shopping when you are feeling hungry and don't skip breakfast. If you ignore feelings of hunger, you may end up eating too much or choosing an unhealthy snack.\nFocus on adding healthy foods to your diet, rather than just taking unhealthy foods away.\nBuy a healthy-recipe book or app and cook more food yourself.\nWhen you are cooking dinner, grill or bake one extra serving of protein at dinner and throw on a salad for lunch the next day.\nPack a healthy lunch and snacks for work.\nDrink water instead of high-sugar drinks, you can infuse it with fresh fruits.\nConsider booking an appointment with a nutritional therapist it can help you make long-lasting lifestyle changes in how you approach what foods work best for your body.\nAll good advice and certainly something to focus on for the New Year.

        "raw_content": "Home U.K. Dismissal of Landmark UK Class Action Against MasterCard Appealed; MasterCard Awarded \u00a3289,280 in Interim Costs\nTwo major developments in Walter Hugh Merricks CBE v. MasterCard Inc. \u2013 one of the UK\u2019s first-ever opt-out class actions \u2013 have occurred in the past several weeks. First, the proposed class representative Merricks appealed the dismissal of his application for a collective proceedings order (\u201cCPO\u201d) to both the Court of Appeal and the Administrative Court of the High Court. Second, the Competition Appeal Tribunal (the \u201cCAT\u201d) \u2013 the body that dismissed Merricks\u2019s CPO application \u2013 awarded interim costs to MasterCard in the amount of \u00a3289,280.\nWe and our colleagues at the UK Finance Disputes and Regulatory Investigations Blog have been following this case for some time. To recap:\nThe action relates to a previous finding by the EU Commission that MasterCard\u2019s [Multilateral Interchange Fees \u201cMIFs\u201d] were kept unfairly high. Interchange fees are paid by a retailer\u2019s card acceptance provider to a consumer\u2019s card issuer (such as MasterCard) every time a card transaction takes place. The retailer\u2019s bank pays the retailer the cost of the goods/services, less a service charge that is largely determined by the level of MIF. Retailers then pass on the cost of accepting card payments to their customers, by way of increased retail prices.\nIn 2007, the [EU] Commission issued a decision against MasterCard . . . [finding] that MasterCard\u2019s MIF breached Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union [ ], because they restricted competition between retailers\u2019 banks and inflated the cost of card acceptance by retailers.\nOn September 8, 2016, Merricks filed a CPO application under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, seeking to certify a class of an estimated 46 million consumers who purchased goods or services from businesses that accepted MasterCard as payment between 1992 and 2008.\nOn July 21, 2017, the CAT issued its judgment dismissing Merricks\u2019s CPO application. In short:\n[T]he damages model [Merricks] proposed made it unsuitable for the claims to be heard as collective proceedings.\nThe difficulty with the damages model was that it was not compensatory in nature \u2013 the proceedings were to include those who purchased goods/services from a business in the UK which accepted MasterCard as a method of payment over a sixteen year period ending in 2008. Therefore, some of the consumers involved in the collective proceedings did not actually use a MasterCard as a method of payment themselves and the argument advanced on behalf of the consumers was that the MIF was passed onto both MasterCard paying customers and those paying by other means. The damages distributed to each member of the class would therefore not relate to the actual losses suffered by each member, instead being based upon an aggregate approach and with each member receiving a set proportion of the damages for each year that they were a member of the class of consumers (i.e. each year that they spent money on goods/services from a UK business which accepted payment by MasterCard), regardless of the sum of money they actually spent.\nMerricks sought permission from the CAT to appeal the decision, but the CAT ruled that there was no appellate jurisdiction with respect to a judgment dismissing a CPO application. The CAT explained:\nExperience from other jurisdictions with a regime of certification of class actions, in particular the United States and Canada, shows that decisions refusing or allowing such actions to proceed typically generate appeals. In the attempt to craft an effective system of collective redress for the UK, the legislature . . . has sought to confine the right of appeal in collective proceedings to decisions on the substantive claims and preclude prolonged litigation in the process of approving the use of the collective procedure for the pursuit of those claims.\nNevertheless, on October 27, 2017, Merricks filed two applications: one before the Court of Appeal seeking appeal, and the other in the Administrative Court of the High Court seeking judicial review.\nMeanwhile, MasterCard applied to the CAT for an order of costs corresponding to its expenditure on counsel fees in opposing Merricks\u2019s CPO application. On November 23, 2017, the CAT ordered Merricks to make an interim payment to MasterCard in the amount of \u00a3289,280. The CAT found that it had jurisdiction to make such an order under its own rules, and noted that its order accorded with the Government\u2019s conscious policy decision that \u201cthere is no immunity for the class representative from the loser-pays principle.\u201d We note that Dorothy Gibson v. Pride Mobility Products Ltd. \u2013 the previous CPO application considered by the CAT\u2013 also resulted in an approximately \u00a3300,000 cost award to the defendant.\nClearly, the saga of Merricks did not conclude with the CAT\u2019s dismissal of the CPO application, and we will therefore continue to monitor the case for any developments relating to Merricks\u2019s applications for appeal and/or judicial review.",

        "raw_content": "Presented by Michela Vittoria Brambilla, President of the Italian League for the Defense of Animals and the Environment and presented today before the Chinese director Genlin president of the World Dog Alliance against the trafficking of pet meat in China.\nRome, November 28, 2015 \u2013 A minimum of three to a maximum of ten years. And \u2018what would risk who entered the house or in the courtyard of relevance to steal a pet, if it were approved, the bill of Michela Vittoria Brambilla, President of the Italian League for the Defense of animals and the Environment and MP for FI, which adds the theft of animals from disease to the list of aggravating circumstances of the crime of theft. The proposal was shown in Milan during the event \u201cThe Magic of Hope\u201d, organized by the \u2018 Association \u201cSOS Greyhounds\u201d , dedicated to the theme of the exploitation of dogs in Europe and Asia, with the participation of Chinese director Genlin, president ofWorld Dog Alliance fighting the trafficking of dog meat in Asia , of which Brambilla is the spokesperson for Italy.\n\u201cOn Facebook and other social \u2013 said the former minister \u2013 multiply the pages that mention\u201d disappearances \u201cof four-legged friends can not be explained as mere expulsions and ask for help.Unfortunately, the theft of animals \u2013 I prefer to speak of \u201ckidnapping\u201d, being still of sentient beings \u2013 not one of the surveyed crimes from the databases of law enforcement, which usually do not have microchip readers. It is necessary to review the paper reports to get an idea of the true extent of the phenomenon, which seems to affect the entire national territory, from north to south, and animals of every race and kind. \u201d \u201cSince we live \u2013 says Brambilla \u2013 in a country with overcrowded shelters, in general it is unthinkable that dogs or cats are stolen by someone who wants to keep them for himself. Even redemption requests are rare, and it often happens that to nothing worth offering very generous rewards. They can not therefore be excluded most disturbing hypothesis: animals could be destined for the black market, begging or illegal fighting or even worse, the illegal trade in skins or meat or unauthorized experimentation. \u201d\nHence the idea of introducing a new aggravating circumstance of the crime of theft. \u201cAlready under current legislation \u2013 said the former minister \u2013 the addition of this simple regulation lead to a significant tightening of punishment, provided that the pet animal\u2019s abduction often occurs in the home or in its appurtenances, more severe assumptions of simple theft, in which case the offender would risk not more a year, but from a minimum of three to a maximum of ten years. The \u201ckidnapper\u201d potential will have one more reason to reflect, before the age of this heinous crime. The dell\u2019aggravante introduction also could facilitate the census of animals to theft complaints , collection and dissemination of accurate statistics.But my bill should not be considered only for its deterrence, but also, even as part of a system that continues to regard the animals as mere \u201cthings\u201d, for its aim to emphasize the special significance of the emotional relationship between man and animal. deserves attention and respect the pain of those who lose \u201ca friend is not human\u201d and exposed to peggioredestino can imagine. \u201cHe concludes Michela Vittoria Brambilla.\n\u201d I never thought that man could be so cruel to animals and especially dogs, our best friends \u2013 said Genlin commenting on the film-truth Eating Happiness he made \u200b\u200bdenouncing the trafficking of dog meat in countries Asian and in its China \u2013 Italy is a country that already recognizes many of the rights of animals and now will go further to improve its level of protection. in contrast, in Asia the situation is very different. Stop forever the meat traffic dog is my mission in life. \u201d During the event, the farmhouse \u201cLa Calcaterra\u201d of Ozzero (Milan), \u201cSOS Greyhounds\u201d delivered to the Italian adoptive families tens of\nrescued dogs by Irish cinodroms, just arrived in our country to begin a new life.\nFor contacts with our editorial staff: animali@quotidiano.net",

        "raw_content": "Supreme Court win gives Wyoming gays reason to cheer\nMarch 14, 2017 by Kerry Drake 3 Comments\nSara Burlingame lived in dread before the Wyoming Supreme Court last week censured a municipal court judge for saying she would refuse to perform same-sex marriages.\n\u201cI had nightmares about it,\u201d said Burlingame, education and outreach coordinator of Wyoming Equality, which seeks to enhance the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people.\nA friend told her the judge\u2019s attorney was provided by the Alliance Defending Freedom, an organization with deep pockets and a point to prove. Immediately after the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s landmark decision that same sex unions are legal, the judge told a Pinedale reporter she wouldn\u2019t officiate at a gay wedding ceremony.\n\u201cMy friend said, \u2018If they [ADF] come to your state, you\u2019re screwed,'\u201d Burlingame recalled. \u201cThey have billions of dollars to spend.\u201d\nNo one can say that part-time magistrate Ruth Neely of Pinedale didn\u2019t have the best legal representation she could get. The ADF rushed to Neely\u2019s side, arguing that judges can decline to perform certain duties if they consider them contrary to their religious beliefs.\nBurlingame was overjoyed at the 3-2 decision by Wyoming\u2019s highest court to censure Neely, though the judge was allowed to retain her position with the court.\n\u201cJudge Neely shall either perform no marriage ceremonies or she shall perform marriage ceremonies regardless of the couple\u2019s sexual orientation,\u201d Justice Ruth Fox declared in her majority opinion.\nOne of the most damaging charges against Neely was that she wrote to the Judicial Advisory Commission, \u201cWithout getting in too deeply here, homosexuality is a named sin in the Bible, as are drunkenness, thievery, lying and the like.\u201d The commission later recommended she be removed from office.\n\u201cI submit to you that somebody with that attitude really should not be on the bench,\u201d Patrick Dixon, disciplinary counsel, told the Commission on Judicial Conduct and Ethics.\nRule of law can\u2019t be bought\nBurlingame celebrated the court decision; \u201cFor all of our despair and all that [Donald] Trump has emboldened, I say, \u2018Hallelujah\u2019 that this decision came down. It shows that our rule of law is here for us, and they couldn\u2019t buy it!\u201d\nNeely had never been asked to officiate at a same-sex marriage ceremony, but she told then-Sublette Examiner reporter Ned Donovan that she would refuse if such a request was made.\nThe unexpected victory for the LGBT community in Wyoming couldn\u2019t have come at a better time. The celebrations in 2015 for the right of gays and lesbians to marry had subsided and many Americans wondered what all the fuss was about. Then a dark orange cloud appeared on the horizon that threatened all of the hard-fought LGBT advances: the presidency of Donald J. Trump.\n\u201cWhen Trump was elected, our greatest fear was the clock will be turned back on some of the advancements that we\u2019ve made,\u201d said Rob Johnston of Casper. Johnston and his husband Carl Oleson sued the state of Wyoming in 2014 to have their legal marriage in Canada officially recognized.\nJohnston said they were in the process of two adoptions before Trump\u2019s inaugural. \u201cOur goal was to have both adoptions finalized before there could be some idiotic ruling that gay couples couldn\u2019t adopt,\u201d he said. The couple made it, but it took longer than expected. One adoption was completed in late December, and the other was finalized about two weeks ago.\nWhile he and Oleson adore life with their new children, Johnston said he remains pessimistic about life under the new Trump administration.\u201dMy fear is that it\u2019s going to get worse, because I see things now that show people have been given permission to hate you to your face,\u201d Johnston said.\nHe said he learned recently about an adoption service in another state that has been given the option to decide if it would allow gay couples to be clients.\n\u201cSo it\u2019s already started,\u201d Johnston said. \u201cWe just have to be so vigilant. To be candid I thought the fight was, not over, but I thought the fight was at a point where we could get on with our lives and do other things.\n\u201cNow it feels like we\u2019re back on the defensive, and we need to look at who do we need to strategically partner with to make sure that we don\u2019t step back \u2014 and do it in a way that isn\u2019t alienating those in power,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I think that\u2019s the challenge. I find myself as a gay man going, \u2018Is this when I really resist or is this when I try to play well with others?\u2019 To be honest, I haven\u2019t made up my mind yet.\u201d\nJohnston described himself as \u201can old ACT UP activist,\u201d referring to the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power that began protesting in the late 1980s. \u201cI\u2019m beginning to feel like all of that is going to have to come back to the forefront for us to be OK. Not to move forward, but just to be OK,\u201d he said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really hard, because you want at some level community support for what it is you\u2019re trying to do,\u201d he said. \u201cBut at the same time I almost have a \u2018f\u2014k you\u2019 attitude; if you\u2019re not with me then get out of my way. That\u2019s really where I am. I feel I have played nice most of my life. I\u2019ve played the game, done what everybody\u2019s expected me to do. And I\u2019m really at the point now that we need to be moving forward on things. There are too many elephants in the room.\u201d\nJohnston said when he and his husband enrolled their teen transgendered male-to-female daughter in school, they learned it had no special groups or activities for LGBT students.\nProblems at \u2018most accommodating\u2019 school\n\u201cThe accommodation they\u2019ve made for our daughter is they let her use the staff bathroom, but that\u2019s not good enough,\u201d he said. \u201cSo when she does use the girls\u2019 bathroom she gets in trouble and gets detention. But we really feel the school that she\u2019s in is probably the most accommodating in the city.\u201d\nWith his new parental pride, Johnston likes to talk about the changes in his life. \u201cNow I have kids. They don\u2019t know it, but I\u2019m their protector. Nobody is going to mess with them.\u201d\nJohnston, of course, is upset with Trump\u2019s decision that transgendered people have to use the bathroom that corresponds with their gender at birth. It\u2019s another in a long list of reasons why Trump\u2019s presidency has him on edge.\nHe doesn\u2019t want his children to grow up feeling like they have to apologize because who they are makes someone else uncomfortable, he said. But both his and Oleson\u2019s kids never have to be afraid to talk to them about their sexuality.\n\u201cWhen I came out it was very ugly with my family,\u201d Johnston recalled. His relationship with one brother was non-existent. \u201cAnytime I came back to see the family he wouldn\u2019t let me visit his house. He and his wife would pack up and go. I didn\u2019t see or talk to him for 15 years.\u201d\nRemarkably, Johnston said his brother today is the closest member of his family. How did that happen?\n\u201cWe decided to just keep up our dialogue. We talk about things without arguing,\u201d he said, adding that it\u2019s not always easy. \u201cHe\u2019s a Trump supporter.\u201d\nCan finding common ground actually be that easy \u2014 achieved just by talking? Burlingame said she was surprised at the almost universally negative response in Wyoming to failed House Bill 135, which sought to allow business and government employees to discriminate against gays and lesbians because of their own religious beliefs.\n\u201cI think people in Wyoming actually value families,\u201d Burlingame said. \u201cWe value families being supported, having resources. We actually value fairness. It rankles; it offends our sensibilities when we see a lack of fairness, whether they understand what it\u2019s like being gay and living in Casper and adopting a child or not.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t like unfairness, and maybe that will be our salvation.\u201d\nFiled Under: civil rights, Columns/Blog, Drake's Take, justice, The Drake's Take\nMark E Talboom, D.C. says\nI guess not everyone in the EQUALITY STATE is interested in EQUALITY for all. This judge had shown her bigotry and prejudice and should be removed post-haste from ever making another decision that affects the lives of others.\nWho knows what other personal beliefs color her legal \u201cdecisions\u201d. People like Judge Neely love to cherry-pick The Bible to reinforce their own prejudices, particularly the Old Testament. As a New Testament kind of guy, I\u2019ve never read where Jesus said to discriminate against the LGBTQ community.\nBut that aside, I am grateful for the 1st Amendment of the Constitution with guarantees a separation of church and state as well a freedom FROM religion. The USA is NOT a \u201cChristian Nation\u201d, but one made up of all faiths or none at all. Ms. Neely needs to leave her personal beliefs on the doorstep when she comes to her workplace where she makes decisions that will affect many lives, or resign and let someone who is interested in following the letter of the law and the Constitution do the job.\nBob LeResche says\nThe Neely decision makes me cringe. How could 2 out of 5 Wyoming Supreme Court Justices believe that a State Judge has the right to discriminate against same-sex couples? And how could the entire panel decide that a judge can, in the end, pick and choose which of her duties she cares to perform and still keep her job? And, Kerry, to characterize this pyrrhic \u2018victory\u2019 as \u201cunexpected\u201d only suggests that purchasing our court\u2019s justice is commonplace in Wyoming. Something\u2019s seriously amiss here. No one should be cheering.\nKarin Ebertz says\nCity: Gillette",

It really is. What Tom and Dave and Julie created is simply amazing, and I\u2019m beyond grateful.\u201d\nStoltz collected an unprecedented 53 career championship wins and seven world titles (4 from XTERRA and 3 from ITU) in his illustrious 15-year career.\nAs impressive as his credentials are, he is more beloved worldwide for his warm smile and welcoming demeanor than his fearless downhill skills.\nWatch his Hall of Fame tribute video.\n\"Last Call for the Caveman\" Tribute: http://www.xterraplanet.com/2015/08/last-call-for-the-caveman/\nRetirement Video: https://vimeo.com/137660263\nXTERRA HALL OF FAME MEMBERS (The first nine...)\nNED OVEREND (2005)\nOverend competed in the first-ever XTERRA\u2008in 1996, finishing third.

Pro Series crowns (1999 and 2000), and the 2000 World Championship.\nJIMMY RICCITELLO (2008)\nRiccitello won the inaugural XTERRA World title over triathlon great Mike Pigg. Afterwards, he said \u201cMan this race is a bitch, but it\u2019s the true spirit of triathlon - athlete vs. the course\u201d.\nMICHAEL TOBIN (2009)\nTobin dominated XTERRA for years, with 16 wins and the 2000 World Championship to his credit.

In the early years he was a factor in just about every race, and he also introduced the sport to the triathlon world by writing about his experiences.\nJAMIE WHITMORE (2012)\nWhitmore won 37 championships in a dozen different countries, including the XTERRA World Championship in 2004. She is still today the most successful female pro the sport has ever known.\nNICO LEBRUN (2013)\nNicolas \"The Professor\" Lebrun from France was a major and consistent force in XTERRA racing in Europe and in America with 90 top five finishes in 13 years including 32 wins and four European Tour Championships.

        "title": "Faces of the ADEA: Joseph Bednarik",
        "raw_content": "Attorney Joseph Bednarik had worked for the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, the state equivalent of the EEOC, for almost 17 years when he applied at age 55 for a new position with the state. During his interview, the Executive Director of the office told him that she was concerned that he would not stay in the position long and that she would not be able to replace him. Instead of hiring Joseph, she hired a much younger candidate, who did not have close to Joseph's experience.\nJoseph had developed the saying: \"Sometimes the difference in experience is so pronounced, it jumps off the page and hits you in the face. . .\" Joseph found himself smacked in the face.\nQ. When Did You Decide to File a Charge of Age Discrimination?\nDuring the interview, the Executive Director asked me, \"How do I know you're not going to get bored and leave?\" I immediately became concerned with age discrimination. When I learned that I did not get the job and the person who did, it did not sit well with me. The woman who was hired was a law student of my wife only four years earlier. I knew that she was not qualified for the job as an Administrative Appeals Officer, and I was. It jumped off the page and hit me with a 2x4. It was clear to me that this could not have been justified on a merit basis. I felt going forward with a complaint was absolutely necessary on numerous levels.\nQ. How Has This Experience Affected You?\nI was completely devastated. I had been involved in litigation for almost 30 years. I wanted a break from that and the opportunity to make and interpret law in an appellate capacity. I saw this job as a way to complete the circle so I really really wanted it at the time.\nQ. What Do You Want People to Take Away from Your Experience?\nDon't forfeit your rights by not pursuing them. It is necessary to assert yourself because that is not the way it should go. There are remedies out there. Be patient. There is nothing to be gained by thinking that it needs to be resolved immediately. It will come in due course. Just be patient with it.\nQ. How Was Your Experience with the EEOC?\nI had a preconception about the EEOC that proved not to be correct. EEOC has so many cases, and personnel and resources are limited. I did not think that the EEOC would be concerned with a 55-year-old white guy missing a promotional opportunity. I expected to hear that it's a probable case, but you will have to take it to court yourself. I was pleasantly surprised that the EEOC wanted to go forward with a lawsuit, and I was really impressed, extremely impressed, by the EEOC attorney. I cannot say enough about how competent my EEOC legal representation was. I never had any doubt that he was completely knowledgeable, hard-working, and thorough.\nQ. Do You Have Any Wishes for the ADEA as it Turns 50?\nThe significance of this law cannot be understated. People need agencies like the EEOC available to provide a remedy.\nFrom the EEOC Attorney's Perspective\nQ. Why Was This Case So Important to Older Workers?\nAs we mark the 50th anniversary of the ADEA, this case illustrates that age discrimination remains a serious problem in the workplace. It sends a strong message to all employers, public and private, that the EEOC will not tolerate age discrimination in the workplace.\nQ. Why Did the EEOC Stand Up for Older Workers in this Case?\nThe EEOC will take vigorous action when an employer makes a hiring decision because of age.",

        "raw_content": "Health Department Warns Orthodox Jewish Community of Increase in Measles Cases; Urges Vaccination for All Children, Especially Before Traveling to Israel and Other Countries Experiencing Measles Outbreaks\nSix individuals with measles were confirmed this month in the Orthodox Jewish community of Williamsburg, Brooklyn\nHealth Department recommends the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine for all children at age 12 months, with a second dose at 4 to 6 years old; two doses of MMR vaccine are required to attend kindergarten through grade 12; all persons, including infants aged 6 to 11 months, should be vaccinated prior to international travel\nHealth Department increasing awareness in community; will hold a meeting with rabbis and elected officials in Williamsburg tomorrow; target ad campaigns in local newspapers; and distribute posters to health care providers in the community\nOctober 17, 2018 \u2014 The Health Department today is reporting six individuals with confirmed measles this month in the Orthodox Jewish community in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The initial case of measles was acquired by a child on a visit to Israel, where a large outbreak of the disease is occurring. The individuals with measles ranged in age from 11 months to 4 years. Five of these children were unvaccinated prior to exposure, including four because vaccination was delayed and one who was too young to have received the vaccine. The sixth child had received one dose of the vaccine prior to exposure but was not yet immune. Complications include one child who was hospitalized with pneumonia and another child with an ear infection. Additionally, there are seven confirmed individuals with measles among New York State residents outside of New York City \u2013 five acquired measles during travel to Israel, and two are individuals infected after an exposure to a person with measles. To increase awareness about measles, the Health Department will hold a meeting in Williamsburg with rabbis and elected officials tomorrow, place ads in local newspapers and distribute posters to health care providers.\n\u201cAlthough measles is preventable, too many families are choosing to not vaccinate or delay vaccination, putting their children and other children at risk\u201d said Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot. \u201cIt is also important to make sure the entire family is protected before traveling internationally, because outbreaks of measles are occurring in Israel and throughout Europe. If your child develops a fever and rash, contact their health care provider and keep your children home from school or daycare.\u201d\n\"I commend the Health Department and the City for taking the necessary steps to ensure that this outbreak is contained by informing and educating the community on ways to stop the spread of this and other preventable diseases,\" said Assemblyman Steven Cymbrowitz, a member of the Assembly's Health Committee. \"The safety of our children is of the utmost importance.\"\nThe Health Department recommends the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine for children at age 12 months, with a second dose at 4 to 6 years old. Two doses of MMR are required to attend kindergarten through grade 12. Children attending daycare, nursery school, Head Start and pre-K are required to have one dose of MMR vaccine. All persons, including infants ages 6 to 11 months should be vaccinated prior to international travel. Parents should keep ill children at home and not send them to daycare or school. If there is measles in a student, all unvaccinated children \u2013 including those with a medical or religious exemption \u2014 will be excluded and unable to attend the daycare or school for 21 days after their last exposure.\nMeasles is a highly contagious disease. Young children, the immunocompromised, and non-immune pregnant women are at highest risk for severe complications. Measles is transmitted by airborne particles, droplets, and direct contact with the respiratory secretions of an infected person.\nMeasles typically presents in adults and children as an acute viral illness characterized by fever and generalized rash. The rash usually starts on the face, proceeds down the body, and may include the palms and soles. The rash lasts several days. Infected individuals are contagious from four days before rash onset through the fourth day after rash appearance.\nIf you think you were exposed to measles, contact your health care provider before going to the facility so they can prevent exposure to other patients. Tell the medical staff if you have fever and a rash and about any known exposures or international travel. You can prevent measles by making sure you and your family have received two doses of MMR vaccine.\nHealth care providers should ensure that adults and children over the age of 6 months who are traveling outside the U.S. have documented immunity to measles. In addition to the large outbreak currently going on in ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities in Israel, there are large outbreaks in Europe; in the first six months of 2018, over 41,000 cases of measles and 37 deaths have been reported. Countries most affected include Serbia, Ukraine, Georgia, Greece, Romania, Italy, France, Slovakia, Russia and the United Kingdom, although all countries in Europe have reported cases. There are also outbreaks in many other parts of the world, including countries in Asia, South America and Africa.\nSuspected persons with measles should be reported immediately to the Health Department.

        "raw_content": "York stone is a type of sandstone found and quarried specifically in the Yorkshire area. It is praised for its durable, attractive and versatile qualities and is used in projects around the UK and the rest of the world.\nWhere can I see York Stone?\nYork stone has been used in the UK for hundreds of years for paving, house signs, headstones, houses and fireplaces, not to mention churches and various buildings built through the ages. The fact that these buildings are still standing and look just as attractive as the day they were built is testament to the durability and long-lasting nature of York Stone. In fact, in most cases, it even gets better with age!\nYou will see York Stone in use in paving, especially in London, and buildings in huge cities around the UK. The stone dates as far back as Norman use when it was primarily used to build churches. In later years, it was used to build manor houses and halls across Yorkshire.\nAround the 19th Century, growth in the Yorkshire wool trade saw more mills being built with York Stone used to build solid floors to withstand heavy machinery. And, of course, York Stone was used to build workers houses too! Yorkshire towns such as Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford and Leeds were all expanded using York Stone flags and bricks. The stone provided high-quality dwellings for workers and their families.\nOnce the UK canal system was developed, York Stone was transported to other regions of the UK which is why most of the paving and many of the buildings in London use York Stone.\nWhy Buy Reclaimed York Stone?\nUnlike new York Stone, fresh from the quarry, reclaimed York Stone already has bags of character as it has been exposed to weathering and wear and tear for hundreds of years. When extending existing projects or matching existing structures, reclaimed York Stone blends in much better than new stone. The stone\u2019s natural properties make it much harder to damage and more durable than other paving types.\nIn addition to the look of reclaimed York stone, reclaimed York Stone is also kinder to the environment. The process for quarrying new stone requires higher energy consumption in digging out the stone and transporting it. Reusing old materials is much more environmentally friendly and the only energy consumed is transporting it from one site to the next.\nHow is the Reclaimed Stone Used?\nWe supplied Reclaimed Cathedral Grade York Stone to Glaziers Hall, London as part of a \u00a32 million renovation project. Glaziers Hall was built in 1808 and is now a Grade II listed building. The renovation included the basement of the building which contains the original Georgian arches of London Bridge so it was essential that the stone we supplied was in keeping with the original design and materials used.\nOur York Stone was used for the flooring of the basement which underwent a complete refurbishment after previously being unused. The huge space is now the perfect space for dinners, wine tastings, temporary exhibitions and lectures. The York Stone floor is durable so will take the wear and tear of people walking through the space but it also offers a stunning look to the project. The venue hosts over 420 commercial events every year so it\u2019s important for the flooring to withstand heavy footfall and having food and drinks spilt on it. The basement even includes a bespoke wine cellar which is integrated into one of the arches.\nReclaimed York Stone was chosen in this case to match the aged appearance of the existing architecture and to add even more character to this building steeped in history and to create a beautiful open space perfect for entertaining.",

        "raw_content": "Skyva Review Yoyo Trick\nReview of the Magicyoyo Skyva.\nSkyva Yoyo\nSkyva Review Yoyo TrickThis is the Magicyoyo Skyva. If you look at the box you see it is made by Magicyoyo, but you will also see that it is designed by Jeffrey Pang. If you are not familiar with Jeffrey Pang, he is more well known in the yoyo world for doing more boutique designs. Typically limited run, and they usually employ a lot of out of the box thinking that when you get it, they just play really, really well. I think that all of us in the yoyo world knew that when Jeffrey decided to team up with Magicyoyo, the result was going to be something special, and the Skyva definitely is that.\nThe first thing that you will notice when you look at the Skyva is this little dimple on the inside and that was designed specifically for finger spins. This is one of the best implementations that we have ever seen in any yoyo of finger spin design. It is really easy to use, but it is also really dynamic. You can do a lot of different types of tricks with it. Usually there is a trade off there, if it is easy, it is not as good for tricks, and vice versa. This kind of has it all. I will show you what I mean when we do the demonstration.\nThe way that they achieved this was really interesting. You see the Skyva is injection molded but in order to get this finger spin design exactly right every single time, they actually machined the inside of each cup to make it just right. You will see that same attention to detail in every single part of this yoyo.\nWhen you open it up it comes with the center trac bearing, which we are big fans of. You will also see that they have these brass metal pieces built right into the side of the yoyo. Those are for the bearing seat. This is becoming more common in plastic yoyos, but it is just one more thing that lets you know that this particular product, they are really committed to the quality of it, and consistent play for every single yoyo.\nNow, when you get the yoyo put together, you are going to see that basically it is a V shape. V shapes tend to play a little bit faster, and that is true of the Skyva. It also has a little step coming off the bearing which helps it play just a little bit better for off axis. In general, it plays kind of on the lighter side, which makes it a super fun yoyo to play with. Like I said, it is a little bit faster, plays light, which means it is really easy to use, it is really good for the finger spins. It is just the type of yoyo that you are going to want to have with you all the time. It is good for just about all the different types of 1A yoyo tricks. It is just fun to have around because it is not a really demanding throw.\nThere is one trade off with this yoyo. Because of how deep this finger spin bowl needed to be, the plastic under there is pretty thin. So you do not want to be hitting this yoyo on the ground an awful lot. We would definitely recommend against using the Skyva for 5A. Also if you are a brand new player and you are still getting control of your tricks, and if you find yourself still semi-frequently hitting the ground, we would recommend waiting a couple of months before you pick up your first Skyva. We think that if you do that, you are going to have a much better experience overall.\nLet\u2019s get to it, let\u2019s see how it plays.\nAs we said, the weight and shape of the Skyva make it really great for going through all of your different speed combo elements. Those same characteristics also make it really great for off axis style play as well. It is really easy to just blow through all of your different elements. As we know, the thing that we really want to talk about is its ability to do finger spins. When you are learning finger spins, one of the most difficult things to master is repeated hop elements. Because the Skyva is good at keeping your finger centered, it makes those tricks really easy as well. In addition to that, because of this curved shape of the inner bowl outside of the dimple, even if you catch it at an angle, it actually keeps your finger in place really well and gives you time to allow the yoyo to get centered and get your finger in the dimple so you can continue on with your tricks. In just a lot of different ways, it is just a super fun yoyo to use, it is great for all the different types of tricks, and we could not be happier to recommend to you the Magicyoyo Skyva.",

        "raw_content": "Work, New Tasks and Office Politics.\nThere is so much on my plate these days. Work just simply eats almost my entire 24 hours. I can\u2019t even seem to squeeze personal stuff. Urgh! This is too much!\nThe pressure is on me, right on top of my head. The pressure coming from the work colleagues, my former manager who won\u2019t get out of my insy-winsy tail, as if I still work under him, and of course the pressure coming for the higher peeps in my organization.\nI was not promoted but I was given a lot of new responsibilities now, including a weekly report that I need to prepare and present in front of the executives and the big boss.\nThe recent movement in our organization has brought me some good stuff and some not so good ones. I will explain \u2019em.\nMy team and I was transferred to a new department and I now directly report to the big boss but it has a pros and cons. I\u2019ll start with the pros\u2026\nThis is is not in order but I will start with the having a direct access to the boss and getting my presence felt in our organization, not just some sort of a \u201cghost\u201d employee where you are not even being noticed at all. Then next is the opportunity to learn new things. Rubbing elbows with the executives every week, though most of the time, it\u2019s all about reporting how your department is going, and some praising and bashing as well, I am seeing the weekly board meeting as my chance to learn from these higher people in our company. The way they run the company, their brilliant ideas, how they handle issues and a lot of things, just simply listening to \u2019em as they praise or bash you, you\u2019ll learn. That I\u2019d say is one of the great things I am getting out of this. Next would be the privilege to be able to call the shots for whatever I want to do with my team, of course that comes with the \u201cownership\u201d , whether I do good or mess up, I own it so I got to be really wise about my decisions.\nNow the not so good ones\u2026 first the pressure I am getting. They expect so much from me now. At times I am just too overwhelmed about the fact that I am doing this. It is a blessing that I get this privilege, but at times a cloud is in front of you blocking your good view.\nSometimes because of the pressure I think about just backing out, I doubt myself, whether I can do it or not, whether I can meet or even exceed their expectations from me or will I be judged as an incompetent worker, not worthy of the position I am on right now. It scares me. I don\u2019t want to fall short of what I am expected to do but I am being pushed outside of the \u201cbox\u201d and I don\u2019t know if I can \u201csurvive\u201d as I leave my comfort zone. Second, with all the demands this position I have, I think I am not well-compensated. Admit it, we all need money. And while I admit that the money I am receiving now is far from what I was receiving from my previous job, however, with me doing and thinking of the work almost 24/7 leaving me with no time at all for myself, I believe I am worthy to receive a pay rise to compensate at least for losing \u201cmy life\u201d.\nBut nada! Nothing at all.\nNext, my former supervisor, who like I said won\u2019t get out of my insy-winsy tail. I was working under him for more than 6 months already when the big boss decided that I be moved to a new department and report directly to him. But this former manager still thinks that I still have to report to him and inform him of everything I do with my team and my department. He \u201cchecks\u201d on me from time to time, ask for reports that I am not supposed to submit to him anymore, etc.. and when I told him that I was told to directly send the reports to the right people, he said to still cc: him on the email.\nWhat the heck! Does he really need to know everything I do? As far as I am told, I have no more supervisor but everything is directly reported to the big boss. What is his problem now? Why can\u2019t he let me go? While I still give him the things I need to submit to him but the other things he shouldn\u2019t be concerned of, he should back off. He still want \u201cdocuments\u201d signed by him, after I sign it. Geez!!! What is wrong with him? Trying to control me? What is he scared of?\nI can only see it in two ways, one is that he just can\u2019t let me go because he thinks he lost someone important from his department or that he is threatened or don\u2019t want me to get \u201cpromoted\u201d or get the same stuff he gets from having the \u201cdirect access\u201d? What is that? An ego problem? Oh man, he is seriously annoying me now. While I respect him as my former supervisor, I hope he realizes the fact that I am no longer working under him and that he should know where to stand. I don\u2019t want him or anyone to think that since I get this privilege, it has gone to my head. Or that I am being too proud now and doesn\u2019t look back to where I was, which is not true at all. Never. Things are just different now from six months ago, I am given more tasks and I just have to do it right. And I just can\u2019t compromise. What I am expected to do, I will do with God\u2019s help and guidance. But the values and beliefs I have will remain. I\u2019m not going to compromise them just for the sake of protecting someone in my organization. While \u201cpolitics\u201d exist in every organization, I don\u2019t want to be part of it.\nTags: annoying co workers, annoying supervisor, boss, office politics, pressure, promotion, reports, supervisors, work, work colleague, work pressure\nCategories The Corporate World\nAm I Workhalic?\nI am not workaholic. Never.\nBut today I worked for more than 12 hours. To be exact, 17 hours. Wow! Yeah Wow! and despite having a long day at work, I am still here blogging instead of getting some sleep. Hurray!!!!\nI work in a BPO company and my work schedule is at night. It starts 9pm, supposed to end at 6am but ever since I started this job I could just count the few times when I didn\u2019t work overtime. So today, I went home at about 2pm\u2026which is so far the worst \u201covertime\u201d work I ever did. I don\u2019t know if this is still \u201chealthy\u201d figuratively speaking. It consumes me too much and leaves me less time, actually no time for myself and other things. My life evolves so much in my work. It is actually just work, eat and sleep and work, eat and sleep, and work, eat and sleep. A routine now. I actually don\u2019t have a \u201clife\u201d now.\nOkay, before I rant and write more about this. I will get some sleep. I need to. I can\u2019t abuse myself anymore. It might backfire. Plus I still need to be at the office tonight.\nAm I workhalic? I don\u2019t think so. I just have no choice for now.\nTags: career, office, over time, work, workaholic, workplace",

On 23rd May, the Editor appended an essay for the specific benefit of subscribers to International Currency review, the purpose of which was to inform them of progress on the publication of International Currency Review, Volume 33, #s 3 & 4, which runs to almost 1,000 pages, and will provide a massive historical record/update with detailed documentation and related information on the worst financial corruption crisis in world history.\nThis private communication was lifted by another website and placed onto their space out of any context, causing some confusion. The reason for the confusion was that the information published in the second panel, though accessible to anyone, represents, as indicated, this Editor's private\ncommunications with subscribers to our printed intelligence publications. Therefore, what we say in the second panel is nothing to do with anyone other than our actual or potential subscribers.\n\u2022 SPECIAL ORDERS FOR THIS ISSUE: The Editor will be emailing all who have kindly requested information on the cost and delivery of this mammoth presentation. The final sections are being printed in our factory 'as we speak'. The promised emails will be sent out shortly.\nThe following report was largely compiled on Sunday 22nd June 2008, but has been held back in order not to conflict with 'real time' considerations, and also to take account of the Editor's visit to the European Parliament in Brussels:\nSETTLEMENT PROCESS TRIGGERED BY LAST WEEK'S EVENTS\nBRUSSELS, 24th June: The 'happenings' that took place during the week ending 20th June 2008 finally triggered the Settlements payment process. They also reconfirmed that Bush, Cheney and the other criminalist operatives never had the slightest intention of paying out a single cent, while at the same time raiding the funds as often as they could for self-enrichment purposes, to restore the Bush Crime Family's decimated finances, and to sustain the spigot that is used to finance the World Revolution, and the secret financing of the world governance structures, and to finance the secret projects of the US Intelligence and Military Power apparats, as well as covert operations in Iraq and elsewhere by the oil corporations and their associates.\nThe most senior tier of payments, to the 160 countries, was completed on Saturday 21st June 2008. On Tuesday 24th June, a certain 'licensed' US information source mentioned that money was being pulled out of banks in New York City. Specifically, Wayne Madsen reported:\n'[Our] United Nations sources report that there has been a sudden rush in requests for foreign exchange wire transfer requests from the New York City banks'.\n'The sudden demand for transferring funds abroad has resulted in a 24-hour to 48-hour processing delay due to the sheer volume of requests'.\n'Foreign employees at the United Nations are transferring their money from accounts at the United Nations Federal Credit Union (UNFCU) and other New York City banks, both domestic and foreign-owned, and the move has been sudden'.\n'There has been no explanation for the sudden wire transfer activity, although the [US] rumor mill suggests fears of a sudden economic collapse and/or a US and Israeli military attack on Iran, which could touch off a wider regional conflict'.\nThe rumour mill was talking rubbish, illustrating how crass and inaccurate it usually is. The reason for the sudden surge in requests for foreign exchange wire transfer requests was that the country payees had at long last received their payments and were now transferring their funds out to their respective governments and central banks.\nMAJOR TRUSTEES POISED TO DISTRIBUTE FUNDS FOR CASCADING DOWNWARDS\nIn the above context, less than a handful of 'top-tier' Trustees were poised to receive the funds they have been waiting for for years (in one case, over two decades).\nOne very highest-ranked Trustee was understood to have distributed $1.9 trillion to certain key recipients over the weekend, while a diverging report from a primary source on 25th June 2008 reconfirmed to us that 'everyone' concerned must have been paid by close of business (6:00pm) European time on 26th June 2008, with all 'immunities' contingent upon that happening.\nThese 'immunities' reflect one of the basest dimensions of this crisis, given that the organised crime operatives who have been scamming, stealing, deceiving, double-crossing and destroying people's lives on the altar of their inordinate greed for years are supposedly to be let off the hook by the World Court provided they cease interfering with the Settlements. We think the immunity is nothing more than 'transactional', but it stinks nonetheless.\nA handful of highest-level Tustees were to have been paid on 25th June, with these requirements governed by a World Court order WITH ENFORCEABLE POWERS (hence the ubiquitous presence of MI6 agents, Interpol operatives and US Marshals in all relevant US locations).\nManual loading instructions and routings of monies were completed by mid-afternoon on Tuesday 24th June to the satisfaction of the World Court's supervisors on site at the five paying banks (see below for further details) who therefore gave the go-ahead for the payments.\nBut what lay behind the breaking of the previously never-ending logjam? The truth of this matter will surprise many observers. Note our use of the word 'truth'.\nIn our extensive report dated 18th June, the Editor incorporated the following paragraph:\nWHY DID BROWN FLY TO NORTHERN IRELAND HAVING SAID GOODBYE TO THE BUSHES?\nWe will now pose the following question. WHY was it 'necessary' for Brown, who had seen George Bush in the morning of Monday 16th June, to rush up to Northern Ireland so as to be in a position to be standing on the tarmac at Belfast airport, to 'greet' the President and Laura when they arrived in Northern Ireland? After all, he had just said goodbye to President Bush. Perish the thought that the purpose of his presence there might have been to open bank accounts. Perish the thought.\nThis paragraph was inserted because we had simply queried the curious fact that Gordon Brown had reappered in Belfast, information that was reported in the press, after seeing Mr and Mrs B. at Number 10 Downing Street on Monday 16th June, where they had been welcomed on a red carpet in front of the world's TV and print media assembled outside the UK Prime Minister's office for the purpose. Why would it be necessary for Brown to rush to Belfast when he had done his business with the President? The only possible rationale would be that he needed to visit a bank or banks.\nIt was also interesting that Mr Bush's entourage had included Stephen Hadley, the ubiquitous high-level CIA operative, whose presence signified the presence and the involvement of the National Security Council (NSC), with its ties with Cheney, Bush Sr. and the Clintons.\nNORTHERN IRLEAND BANKING DIMENSION IMMEDIATELY INVESTIGATED\nUh, what then happened, we were finally told on Sunday 22nd June, was that the possibility implied by our inserted paragraph about Mr Brown flying to Northern Ireland was immediately investigated, apparently in the Pacific Rim timezone, but also we strongly suspect, by MI6.\nSince this is in part a BRITISH matter, we can report this now without fear of getting entangled in the juggernaut and caught in the US dimension of the 'real time' trap.\nGuess what? IT WAS FOUND TO BE TRUE.\nBank accounts based in Ireland include, by the way, George H. W. Bush's Pilgrim Investments, the Clintons' notorious Children's Defence Fund, accounts connected with goings-on in Northern Iraq, and operations of Bank of Nova Scotia, which has been heavily involved in questionable financial operations for many years.\nThe IMMEDIATE consequence was that the Irish accounts were FROZEN.\nAs reported to us by several sources, it was realised that Bush Jr., aided and abetted by Gordon Brown, had tried to take kickbacks in Northern ireland, on the assumption that prior agreements with the British (see below) covered him, and in the expectation that he would get away with it, as he has always done in the past. The exact details cannot be known with precision since we are not privy, of course, to what undertakings were agreed between The Queen and President George W. Bush, before Bush's party returned to the United States after the visit to Northern Ireland.\nThe next consequence was that, following the immediate investigations that took place, as the matter was put to us [verbatim]:\n'Bush's butt was pinned against the wall, and he had to concede'.\nBUSH FORCED TO ISSUE TWO EXECUTIVE ORDERS\nA third consequence was initially thought to be (although this interpretation proved premature: again, see below) that Vice President Cheney, who had all along been masterminding resistance to the Settlements, not least to prevent the imposition of NESARA (the environment which would lead to the exposure of ALL OF THE CRIMINALISTS), had been finally defanged, as had been repeatedly trailed earlier. According to one source, it was put to Cheney that his corrupt Halliburton dealings would be exposed, although we have a problem with this version of events because we are among those who have already exposed them [see our report dated 26th May 2008 providing the outline details of the Halliburton rip-off offices inside the CIA and the Pentagon].\nAt all events, it appears to have been optimistically assumed that Cheney would be unlikely to interfere any longer, after documents, which had been faxed backwards and forwards between London and Washington on the 18th June 2008, had evidently resulted in a bilateral agreement between The Queen and the President, authorising the Queen to move the funds.\nThis was associated with/followed by the issuance by President Bush of two Executive Orders:\n\u2022 An Executive Order giving instructions for the release of the Settlement funds.\n\u2022 An Executive Order instructing that ANYBODY standing in the way of the Settlements was to be arrested: and neither the Vice President nor the Chief Justice were to be excluded.\nDE FACTO PRESSURES MOBILISED AS A LAST RESORT BY LONDON\nUnderpinning the issuance of these Executive Orders were the latent threats from London, given real substance by the exclusion of the Citibank Board of Directors from their offices in the morning of 19th June, that any hindrance of these Executive Orders would trigger any or all of the practical financial sanctions previously listed: the removal of the loaned $6.2 trillion held within the Citibank suspense account, and the last resort of freezing US dollar 'offshore' accounts held with the Bank of England. When the Editor enquired further about the prospect of the British authorities freezing US assets with the Bank of England, he was authoritatively informed that this prospect was very real and that the assessment was \u2018absolutely correct\u2019.\nThe US spin surrounding this matter behind the scenes elaborated that President Bush had given the Queen \u2018his blessing\u2019 and would support her and the British authorities in any actions they had to take to force the Settlements through. This extraordinary revelation, when investigated further, yielded the following equally stunning intelligence:\n\u2022 It represented a contrived twisting of the facts of the matter, which were that the moment that Gordon Brown's presence in Belfast [see above] was investigated and found to have been related indeed to certain banking activities, both Bush AND Brown had been caught 'in flagrante corruptio', and the game was up. But for prospective public consumption purposes:\n\u2022 Bush had now completely reversed his stance, in that he had exposed the obstructive roles played throughout this crisis by Mr Cheney, Chertoff, Stephen Hadley, General Heyden, and all the other snakes, and had basically thrown them all to the wolves. Apparently President G.W. Bush had decided that he had had enough of his colleagues\u2019 antics, and would tolerate them no longer. This of course has to be taken with a huge pinch of salt, since the reality was that he himself had been caught, this time at last, DECISIVELY, conducting fraudulent operations, aided and abetted by the British Prime Minister who can now be labelled as being as corrupt as his predecessor [see below]. Furthermore it appeared that President Bush had again tried to deceive The Queen.\n\u2022 President Bush had apparently \u2018caved in\u2019 or \u2018broken down\u2019 under pressure from The Queen and the British authorities, following the investigation into what transpired in Belfast triggered by our report, in the course of which sequence he had decided to reveal the treachery and duplicity of his colleagues, in order to save his own skin, according to an early version of the course of events.\nAs noted above, the resulting bilateral agreement between the Heads of State (whatever form this may have taken) authorised The Queen to move the funds, so that any further crude interference would represent overt defiance of the British Head of State, with the most grievous implications.\n\u2022 The Queen and Mr Bush had initially signed papers under the terms of which Mr Bush Jr. was to procure the Settlement releases, and the exchange of these earlier documents (which simple logic suggests must have occurred while President G.W. Bush was in Britain) had made it possible for the Americans to leave for Washington*. Yet was discovered on 18th June 2008 that the intention had been to steal funds from the Irish accounts, i.e,. corrupt business as usual, and that The Queen was being double-crossed. [*This interpretation is based upon the Editor's logical deconstruction of the events, not on official British information: it is therefore plainly subject to error in terms of precise logistics and the exact sequence of events: but it represents our best efforts here].\n\u2022 The Editor speculates that, since such documents would have been worthless without spelling out the consequences for Bush, his colleagues, the criminalists, the US financial system, Citibank, the Federal Reserve, the US Treasury, the US economy and the American people, should further impediments to the Settlements have materialised, it was these earlier accord(s) which had initially been relied upon to trigger the Settlements.\n\u2022 According to sound information made available to us from several sources, it would appear that, despite Bush's standard deceitful behaviour after giving some undertaking or other, the possibility that Mr George W. Bush Jr. would proceed to deceive and double-cross The Queen had not been considered, a fact that we find quite extraordinary in view of the President's record in this respect.\n\u2022 But the situation CHANGED DRAMATICALLY following the discovery of what had been going on in Belfast. Any document that George W. Bush Jr. signs is prospectively worthless, as he cannot be trusted to honour any of his obligations at any time, and reserves, like Lenin, the right to renege on all his undertakings; and indeed, his continued attempted stealing in Belfast confirmed this. But the 'changed circumstances' resulting from the verified fact that he had been found out, forced the issue, leading finally to issuance of the Executive Orders, and thence to the Settlement payments.\n\u2022 The Editor was given to believe that this brazen deceit and duplicity by Bush after he had given what amounted to his pledge of honour to The Queen to cease impeding the Settlements, was and remains the subject of indescribable outrage in London, and among certain US circles.\n\u2022 Bush now provided the back-up rationale that he was 'doing this in order to salvage his family\u2019s name'! We find this nuance extraordinary, too: is it possible that these people in high places are allowed to remain in a gold fish bowl, protected from information such as, in this instance, that the reputation of the Bush Crime Family had been in the sewer for years and was now being eaten by worms, so that there was nothing left of it? He was doing this to save the reputation of his family?\nENFORCEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE URGENT NEED TO SETTLE\nLeaving such considerations aside, who would now enforce compliance?\nIn answer to this question we established the following:\n\u2022 MI6/Interpol agents were in place where required, and in force [see above]. These agents were cooperating with and were to be assisted by US Federal Marshals, to make the arrests in the event of non-compliance. When we pointed out that in the course of an earlier episode, the US Federal Marshals had tipped Cheney off that he was about to be arrested (as we reported some weeks ago), it was stressed that the powers underlying these prospective actions now included not only the World Court/ICJ arrest warrants and The Queen\u2019s Writ of Execution or Lien, but also Executive Orders of the President of the United States now, ironically brought about by his own grievous treachery and the fact that he had got caught. On Wednesday 25th June, the Editor was told that MI6/Interpol agents and US Marshals were on high alert and were stationed 'everywhere' to move in the event of any repetition of the usual sabotage antics [see updated information below].\n\u2022 How would the Blackwater thugs protecting criminalist Vice President Cheney be dealt with? Again, the Presidential Executive Orders would override any other considerations, but as a back-up, the Navy Seals were standing by to ensure that the so-called 'wishes' of President Bush with regard to Vice President Cheney would be fulfilled.\nTHE ULTRA-TIGHT TIMEFRAME WITHIN WHICH THE PAYMENTS HAD TO BE TRIGGERED\nNow it will be recalled that Bush and Cheney were, by Wednesday 18th June, locked inside an extremely tight timeframe dictated by the measures taken and pending by the British authorities:\n(1) The $6.2 trillion loan provided by The Queen and Prince Alaweed of Saudi Arabia, which was keeping Citibank afloat, had effectively been frozen when the Directors of Citibank in New York were prevented from entering their offices on 19th June. Separately, a lady equipped with powers, we believed, from The Queen, was flown to New York from Canada under very heavy guard, to go to Citibank's offices, where she implemented the instructions with which she had been formally equipped, against the background that Citibank had failed to provide the necessary answerback on the preceding day, when required to do so. This operation would have been overseen, we assume, by The Queen's official representative at Citibank, Sir Win Bischoff, who may have been placed at Citibank to watch the activities of the guardian of the Clintons' interests there, Mr Robert Rubin.\n(2) As previously reported and noted again above, there was much concern on Wall Street and in intelligence circles that the British authorities might now executive their lien generally by freezing the 'offshore' US dollar accounts held by US and other interests with the Bank of England. Any such development would have immediately flattened the Federal Reserve and would have destroyed the US Treasury also, by removing the last traces of the 'Full Faith and Credit of the United States'.\nThis was the weapon of last resort, and it appears to have been borne in on 'the interested' that this possibility was not mere bluff, since the British authorities now held all the trump cards, not least subsequent to the raid on the lock boxes by 300 armed police on 2nd June, which as we pointed out at the time, represented a severe body-blow to the criminalist octopus.\nConcerning the completion timeframe, while the 'box' governing completion of the Settlements reflected the circumstances outlined above, which indeed resulted in completion of the country payments by the end of Saturday 21st June, the further 'immunities' extension and the 72-hour settlement (SWIFT) window expiring at 6:00pm European time on 26th June 2008 arose in part as a consequence of the precautionary manual loading and routing operations supervised by the World Court representatives at the five banks, as described above. In addition, further obstruction of part of the Settlements (affecting Pacific Rim payments and 'Wanta') was attempted on 23rd June. This very late attempt to interfere is dealt with at the foot of this report.\nFREEZING OF IRISH ACCOUNTS PLACED PERPETRATORS IN WORSE BIND THAN EVER\nWith the freezing of the Irish accounts, the US criminalists were in an even worse bind than was already the case given the tight timeframe described above. Having been caught trying to take kickbacks AFTER having (we assume) assured The Queen that everything would proceed without any further hitches, the payments still had to be made even though accounts from which sizeable funds were to have been disbursed, had been frozen. What to do?\nIn the middle of the night Thursday-Friday 19th-20th June, the Editor was suddenly informed that the 160 countries were to be paid with Treasury securities. We also learned that Lee/Leo E. Wanta would be paid in this manner as well. Payment using Treasury securities facilitates concealment, which was why the Editor published the further report dated 20th June, given the simple point that payment of Wanta with Treasury securities bypasses the transparent corporate securities account arrangements set up for him inter alia so as to protect him from the theft of his funds, thereby of course enabling these people to renege on their undertakings, sold to the Group of Seven (G-7) financial powers and The Queen, to conduct financial transactions for the restoration of the US Treasury's finances in a consistently transparent manner, which we had to conclude was not the intention after Wanta consorted with Vice President Cheney, Hannah and others contrary to the stance that we had adopted on his behalf and on his direct instructions for 23 months.\nWith Cheney possibly now in the doghouse, the prospect of such under-the-radar transactions proceeding in accordance with the emergency response triggered by our report dated 18th June has diminished. Nevertheless the points made in both reports (18th and 20th June) remain valid. One satisfactory outcome is that Wanta will be obliged to make (or will have taken from him) the famous $1.575 trillion tax payment (35% of $4.5 trillion).\nHe will also need to make the outstanding payables contained in Due Diligence dossiers containing Pay Orders, corporate resolutions, transfers of powers and other responsibilities signed by Wanta which would otherwise represent a monumental portfolio of 'frauds in the inducement'.\nThe contents of these dossiers are so explosive that only four of them exist. They are in the right hands and will be 'deployed' in the most decisive fashion under certain circumstances.\nDESPERATION TO GET MATTERS RESOLVED BEFORE CRISIS GOES 'MAINSTREAM'\nAn authoritative source informed the Editor on Saturday 21st June that 'they are trying to get it done without being exposed'. We thought this was quite extraordinary. They HAVE BEEN exposed! By 'exposure' is presumably meant 'in the mainstream', which these people evidently still fear more than the Fifth Estate (for some unknown, illogical reason).\nFurthermore, it is no longer accurate for us to complain that the 'mainstream' are not rpeorting this crisis. As anticipated, several years too late, the 'mainstream' is picking up bits and pieces of the crisis without (so far) understanding what underlies it. For instance, given that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been taking overdue drastic measures against up to 400 'mortgage brokers', a.k.a. bankers, with this operation trailed to be widened sharply in the near future, the failure of the SEC to enforce the relevant regulations is history and the writing is well and truly on the wall for all in the financial sector who were involved in the serial fraudulent finance operations.\nSo, WHY would 'they' SUDDENLY fear the possibility that the 'mainstream' media, which 'they' so closely control, might, all of a sudden, come to its senses and start exposing this open-ended, high-level corruption? After all, one very large broadcasting organisation received a $2.0 billion bribe to 'sit on' this financial corruption, a fact that we knew and divulged many months ago.\nUh, again, Tim Russert, to begin with. What had happened to Tim Russert?\nThis is the question that 'mainstream' types have been asking ever since their media hero died suddenly after returning from Rome, where Bush had visited inter alia the Pope.\nIt is believed that while in Rome, the Pope informed Bush that he had to choose between paying the lot out, or making no payments at all. Although this cannot be confirmed (by our sources) the provenances of this assertion, and the balance of probability, lead us to believe that this is true.\nFor anything other than these alternatives held the potential for the dsigrace and destruction of the Catholic Church. Tim Russert may have become aware of this, and may have factored this discovery into investgations that he is believed to have been discreetly conducting into this unprecedented nexus of millennial financial scandals. His sudden death followed an interview with Barrack Obama which we think may have been used as a diversion (to prospectively compromise Obama). It is also known that on Wednesday 18th June, President Bush spent his time avoiding the press, when he appeared, as mafia godfathers do, at the memorial event for the late Mr Russert.\nThat event was out of all proportion, strongly suggesting that something weird was going on.\nIf, therefore, there were concerns within the controlled 'mainstream' media cadres that Russert's death was not natural, and given that the one thing that even these controlled media types cannot stomach is any of their colleagues being 'whacked', one can understand why the US criminalists may be worried that what they consider to have been their successful operation to insulate this scandal within the confines of the Fifth Estate, may collapse.\nEven journalists employed by the huge news organisation that took a $2.0 billion bribe from Cheney to keep the lid on this scandal, may have been having occasional troubling second thoughts after the sudden demise of their colleague and fellow journalist.\nAdded to which, elements of the 'mainstream' media in the United States (not yet in Britain) are believed to have realised that this is a systemic crisis which has a common underlying cause.\nThat such a conclusion is accurate SHOULD be borne in on even the most sluggish of media 'hacks' in the immediate future, when we anticipate that certain cascading events will materialise which, by default, will have the outcome that the crisis that we have been exposing for so long will now 'go mainstream', possibly, to begin with, without journalists grasping any of the bacdkground.\nThey will be scrambling to work out why what they will observe is taking place, whereas, if they had paid proper attention to our reports and/or had not been prevented from conducting investigative analysis by the intelligence cells embedded in every US press room, they would have been able to explain global financial and economic developments with appropriate cutting-edge relevance.\nThe cells are there for the main purpose of preventing information about the financial scandals from appearing in the 'mainstream', just as the intrusive surveillance regime, underpinned by the fake 'War on Terror', has been about establishing how much people know about the corruption.\nSETTLEMENTS FOR 3,000+ MAJOR TRUSTEES EFFECTED MANUALLY\nThe 'loading' of codes relating to the payments due to about 3,000 high-level trustees/recipients, beyond the payments to the 160 countries which were completed between Friday 20th and Monday 24th June, had been performed manually, with two World Court representatives/agents overseeing each manual operation at each of the five paying banks. When the Editor made a certain telephone call at 5.02pm on 25th June to clarify a small detail underlying these facts, the clumsy intelligence eavesdroppers immediately severed the transatlantic connection the moment that the Editor had posed the question, thereby confirming both the relevance of this question and its sensitivity.\nFollowing completion of the manual loading operation, which took much longer than the electronic method (causing a degree of bewilderment among those not sufficiently focused on this detail), the intention was to release the lot simultaneously.\nAccompanying the two World Bank supervisors at each of the five banks will have been MI6 and Interpol agents and US Marshals, who were also, as noted, standing by to take drastic measures thought likely to become public knowledge imminently.\nTHE OUTLOOK FOR GORDON BROWN FOLLOWING THE EVENTS IN BELFAST\nOn Saturday 21st June, The Daily Telegraph carried an article by the paper's Political Editor, Andrew Porter, under the headline:\n'After admitting he will fight only one election, who will replace Brown?'\nExcuse us? Maybe we missed something, but before spotting this article, it had not been known that Brown would be stepping down. Political contacts in London and Brussels inform us that the news, which took everyone by surprise, actually started surfacing on Thursday 19th June, the day after the exposure of the Belfast 'banking activities'. The newspaper's article began as follows:\n'Next Friday Gordon Brown will have been Prime Minister for exactly a year after finally realising decades of laser-focused political ambition'.\n'Yet the end of his journey is already in sight, for Gordon Brown has decided he will fight only one General Election as Party leader. As a result, in less than two years there will for the first time since 1994 be a genuine debate over who should lead the Labour Party'.\nThe article, and all other sources, assumed that the next General Election will take place in 2010, following Brown's failure to have the courage to seek his own mandate at a General Election last October. However in the light of the events that unfolded on 16th-18th June 2008, we have some difficulty, as matters stand, in 'buying' this scenario.\nThe presumption must be that any backhander that Gordon Brown may have intended for his own benefit in Belfast will have been thwarted, since his action in aiding and abetting the further thefts and diversions that Mr Bush had intended to perpetrate were blocked when, following the posting dated 18th June, the Irish accounts were frozen.\nTherefore, whether he received a corrupt payment or not (not, as we assume), Brown's reputation has been irretrievably tarnished. Earlier we interpreted this article as implying that Gordon Brown would 'take his money and cut and run'; but the Editor has revised this opinion to omit the first part of that statement. He may run, which means that he may even resign without bothering to front a General Election at all (run in the British sense here. In elections, Brits 'stand', Americans 'run').\nWe wonder whether this sudden indication that he will fight only one General Election is actually a precursor to his resignation before he gets sucked into the run-up to the election, which would in normal circumstances start in the second half of next year. Apart from the considerations above. the latest ICM/Guardian public opinion poll, published on 25th June 2008, placed the Labour Party at 25%, down two points on the result for May, and the lowest result since ICM began its polling in 1984. The so-called 'Conservative' Party (which is nothing of the sort) was rated at 45% of the UK electorate, the highest figure since 1988. The poll showed that 74% of those interviewed thought that Mr Brown was a change for the worse compared with Blair, whereas of course if electors knew that it is neither here nor there which of them is Prime Minister as both have now been identified as being corrupt, they would have been insulted by the question.\nEither way, Mr Brown's tenure appears likely to be short. He's next to toast.\nIMPLICATIONS OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS FOR THE EUROPEAN UNION COLLECTIVE\nPart and parcel of this scenario is the fact that the Brown Government pressed ahead with the UK ratification process for the convoluted and greatly disliked Lisbon Treaty not only in the face of the known opposition of an estimated 80% of the British people, who feel just as the Irish do, but also despite a legal challenge in the High Court against the Government's deception in asserting in its election manifesto that it would hold a referendum on Britain's overall position in Europe, only to reverse that decision later in a brazen display of duplicity.\nSpecifically, the Editor's former school and university colleague, Stuart Wheeler, brought a case requesting a Judicial Review of this pernicious decision in the High Court. On 20th June, Lord Justice Richards told the Prime Minister to delay British moves to ratify the EU Collective's Lisbon Treaty, which essentially destroys the residual sovereignty of its Member States (not entirely).\nThe Government had concluded the London-based element of ratification, but has still to deposit the relevant documents in Rome, where the entire unification project was originally initiated by Giuseppe Mazzini and the necromancer Albert Pike in the third quarter of the 19th century. If you didn't know that, please see the Editor's book The New Underworld Order.\nBy pressing ahead with UK ratification, in defiance not least of the clear verdict of the Irish people, who greatly dislike being ordered around by the EU's gauleiters and their co-conspirators, Brown has antagonised not only the majority of British people for whom the pan-German Europroject is anathema, but also the judiciary. The Judge is considering Stuart Wheeler's case, which alleges that Ministers have acted unlawfully by seeking to ratify the Treaty without holding a referendum.\nThe Government won a final House of Lords vote on a bill ratifying the Treaty on 18th June, and the new legislation enabling ratification reecieved the Royal Assent on 19th June.\nFor the benefit of our American readers who may not have had the necessary opportunity to study the nuances of the British system of government, the Monarch has not, ever since the early 18th century, refused consent to parliamentary legislation, even when very greatly disturbed by what may be placed before him or her for signature, and does not express any such qualms other than in private discussions with her Prime Minister. There is no point in debating this issue: that's the way it is. We could make certain comments about the great hazards inherent in the US system of voting for a new King who is controlled by the unruly Intelligence Power every four years.\nAnyway, in a direction handed down on 20th June, Lord Justice Richards expressed surprise that Ministers are pressing ahead with ratification before he had delivered his judgment on Mr Stuart Wheeler's case. Stuart is no lightweight, either: he has distinguished himself in the City of London and is a widely respected figure in the so-called 'Eurosceptic' community.\nHis Lordship said: 'The Court is very surprised that the Government apparently proposes to ratify while the claimant's challenge to the decision not to hold a referendum on ratification is before the Court. The Court expects judgment to be handed down next week. The defendants are invited to stay their hand voluntarily until judgment'.\nWith this intervention, the Judge made it clear that he was not intent on delaying the Government's proposed course of action by sitting on the matter, but that on the other hand he would appreciate the courtesy of the Government paying proper attention to the jurisdiction of the Court and abiding by it for a matter of days, rather than rushing ahead with the depositing of legal papers in Rome.\nDenuded of the polite language and etiquette surrounding these matters, one could rephrase His Lordship's intervention as: 'Don't you dare'. It was also another way of inviting Stuart Wheeler to ask him for an injunction preventing the Brown Government from proceeding with the final stage of ratification, and of indicating that if Wheeler were to ask, an injunction would be granted.\nAfter all, not only have the Irish refused to agree to the Lisbon Treaty, but so have the Czechs, according to current information. Formal ratification by Britain is therefore as much of a waste of time as is ratification by the other deluded Member States whose corrupted leaderships prefer continuation of the discredited EU status quo, than a cold douche of reality. It could be added that the British Government's behaviour on this score is more than just perverse: it is provocative.\nEUROPEAN PARLIAMENT IN FURIOUS DESPAIR AT THE SITUATION\nThe Editor attended two sessions of the European Parliament's Constitutional Affairs Committee (23rd and 24th June) and a Plenary Session in the European Parliament, Brussels, itself (24th June), witnessing the Members as they 'wrestled' with the painful slap in the face that has been meted out to them by the Irish, whose representatives made it clear that all the proposals being conjured up by the EU Collective to 'find a way forward'\u00b4(continuing the ratification process anyway, sending an official delegation to Dublin, 'communicating' more effectively with the Irish people, 'explaining' the glories of this quite incomprehensible Treaty document to them, alleviating their justified concerns about the intended EU legitimisation of euthanasia, and refurbishing the tired, jaded 'symbols' of European 'unity' in order to foster a warm, cosy feeling about Europe, and other garbage) would be going nowhere. (Further information on what the Editor found out in Brussels will follow).\nStunned by the shock of being told they can't proceed to complete the usurpation of the Member States' national sovereignty, these closet revolutionaries are now at a loss to know what to do.\nThey therefore spent well over an hour on 24th June 2008 discussing how to make 'better use of the European symbols': the ugly flag with its 12 geomasonic yellow stars representing inter alia the 12 tribes of Israel, a motto ('Unity in Diversity'), and the European 'anthem', Beethoven's Ode to Joy, which these idiots do not seem to realise reminds every European of the authors of this anti-nation state entity, which is always asserted to be Schumann, whereas the truth of the matter is that the blueprint for the EU Collective was formalised in the previously mentioned seminal World War II compendium published in Nazi Berlin during 1942, 'Europaische Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft' (meaning European Economic Community), copies of which will be found in the Staatsbiblothek, Berlin, and in the British Library, in Central London. (The copy has to be ordered in advance).\nConsiderable disinformation has been circulated, particularly by US sources, concerning the fate of the EU's Lisbon Treaty. We are being told by US observers who are not 'up to speed' on this matter that Britain's sovereignty has been extinguished. This is not the case. In addition to the facts stated above, the Polish President had refused to sign Poland's ratification papers, while the President of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Klaus, has joined his Prime Minister in asserting that 'Lisbon is dead'.\nUS observers are ignorant of the reason the Czechs are saying this, so here's the background. As a consequence of the events following the physical defeat of Nazi Germany, Czechoslokavia retained certain lands previously incorporated within Germany. Not only was this done 'under the radar' by Stalin, but the Czech attitude was and remains that the pan-Germans invaded Czechoslovakia and subjected the country to a reign of terror, so they were entitled, after liberation, to retain any spoils of war. The Lisbon Treaty contains provisions which the Cezchs interpret as liable to trigger legal action by Germany or pan-German interests against the Czech Republic to regain control of these lands, which would have destabilising potential, and could cost the Czechs huge sums of money.\nTherefore, while the European Parliament and onlookers from afar fret about the Irish decision (with good reason because judging by their excellent speeches delivered in the Plenary Session attended by the Editor on 24th June, the Irish are not about to be intimidated), a much more potent threat to the doomed Lisbon Treaty is the time-bomb encased in the Czech attitude. This is all the more significant because, following the imminent French Presidency (under the German masonic system whereby the Presidency rotates every six months), the Presidency in the first half of 2009 will be held by the Czech Republic! Of course, this is a completely bizarre state of affairs, but since we are describing what life is like inside the Tower of Babel, what did you expect?\nEUROPEAN COLLECTIVE TREATIES PROCURED BY MEANS OF SLUSH FUND PAYMENTS\nNow in 2005, Mr Gordon Brown was sold to us by a faction of the UK intelligence community as 'the man who will take us out of Europe'. In an earlier report, we asked the question: 'Did Gordon Brown take the EU's payola bribe, too?', referencing the corrupt practice whereby 'facilitators' of the EU's convoluted control documents (collective treaties) are paid huge sums out of a known slush fund in Switzerland financed by stolen and accrued monies originally stashed there by the Nazis: for the relevant details, see our report dated 12th October 2005 (the first of these reports: Archive).\nOur question cited the contingency that Mr Brown may have accepted the slush money, just as Blair did before him. We eventually traced Blair's $100 million (paid in Euros) to the Central Bank of Belize, the official foreign exchange reserves of which ballooned by almost exactly $100 million between February and March 2006, for no indicated reason. It will be recalled that Blair was in the habit of visiting the Caribbean, and Florida, rather a lot. If Mr Brown succumbed to this DVD bribery, then he would already have started down the path of greed for 'backside' payments, which triggers a lust for more money, which in turn would have explained his behaviour on 16th June 2008.\n\u2022 TRANSFORMATION OF THE GLOBAL SITUATION IN A MATTER OF DAYS:\nSUMMARY OF THE KICKS IN THE PANTS RECEIVED BY THE 'BLACK CADRES'\nAt the end of June 2008, therefore, the international situation appears to have been completely transformed in the following remarkable respects:\n\u2022 The Settlement payment process had at last been triggered, despite fierce and continuing resistance by the gang of world-class criminals that long ago siezed control of the US structures.\n\u2022 The European Union Collective, a primary dimension of this pan-German, Nazi-inspired global crime scene, had been severely traumatised by the refusal of at least two 'Member States' to go along with the DVD's secret plans. Interestingly, both Ireland and the Czech Republic have direct experience of manipulation and traumatisation by the pan-Germans: the Czech Republic because Czechoslovakia was invaded by the Nazis with their Gestapo; and Ireland, because the Germans have always intermeddled in Ireland in order to weaken the United Kingdom, bankrolling the IRA from the outset, although control was handed to the Germany-serving cadres within the vast US intelligence community, penetrated by the Reinhard Gehlen organisation after World War II.\n\u2022 Corruption at the highest level of the British Government has been exposed, with prospectively momentous political consequences and a possible multi-dimensional reappraisal of UK interests.\n\u2022 Corruption at the highest levels of the US Government has been exposed and the highest-level perpetrators of this behaviour have been forced, at long last, to concede. They never intended to do anything of the sort. If they had had their way, this crisis would have continued for many years to come, and the Republic would have been destroyed. The corrupt Intelligence Power had intended the crisis to be kicked into the next Presidency, which would continue to block the Settlements.\nURGENT NECESSITY TO PROCEED WITH 'ACT TWO' AND WITH THE REFINANCING TRADES\nWe now await the logical next step: ACT TWO. Under no circumstances should this be aborted.\nThe refinancing operations that were promulgated via our platform labelled The Wanta Plan, remain clearly essential if the US Treasury is ever to dig itself out of the otherwise unsustainable hole into which it has collapsed due to a century of permissive deficit financing and the pernicious historical arrangement whereby the US Treasury has to operate with money backed by nothing issued by the private institution called the Federal Reserve System, when it could so easily be regularising its finances by benefiting from windfall taxation receipts generated from transparent, on-the-books financing operations. Instead, it presides over a corrupt carousel installed specifically, as has been confirmed, to line the pockets of a small, selfish cadre of self-appointed control-freak plutocrats.\nTHE STALLING OF ONE GROUP OF PAYMENTS INCLUDING THE 'WANTA' PAYMENT\nIn this context, the stalling of one category of Settlement payments, of which the Editor became aware on 23rd/24th June, concerned payments for Pacific Rim recipients and 'Wanta', both said to have been required to be handled by the same paymaster. When we investigated further, it was confirmed by multiple sources that 'Wanta is collaborating with Cheney', as revealed earlier, in gross confliction with the stance that he promulgated using our platform from June 2006 onwards, after the Editor had paid for his release from probation [refer inter alia to the report of 6th August 2007]. This represented the culmination, therefore, of the duplicitous double-crossing of Cottrell and Story, the two people who had helped him in order to get this crisis resolved.\nThe two dossiers mentioned above are directly related to this dimension of the overall matter. The motivation underlying this very late destabilisation attempt appears to be related to factors that it would be unseemly at this stage to go into, especially as the circumstances of this matter had to be conveyed to the British at the very highest level. The irony of this is that, in apparently relying on Cheney for his salvation, Wanta would be liable, as previously, to be double-crossed by that arch Luciferian manipulator, to his extreme detriment.\nIn other words, we have an interesting variation here of the French 'take' on what would occur in Moscow when Stalin was 'exposed' by Khrushchev:\n'Le destalinisation destalinisera les destalinisateurs'.\nAn interesting corollary of this state of affairs is the sudden 'realignment' of parties, including certain extremely unpleasant characters who thought they had the upper hand, and who have at last realised that their customary bombast has been misplaced. Several instances of this tell-tale behaviour are known to us, indicating that it is 'every man for himself' time.\nAs for the apparent attempted assassination of President Sarkozy in Israel on 23rd June 2008, the 'authorised version' of events was that an Israeli guarding the airport shot himself in the head with one round after the VIPs had finished inspecting a guard of honour. For 'shot himself in the head', read: 'Was shot dead by Israeli marksmen'. For why? Follow the money.\ncasper june 25th\ncasper 06-25-08\n\"Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay\"\n\"My, oh my what a wonderful day!\"\n\"Plenty of sunshine heading our way\"\nfw10;\nSave Zimbabwe from Mugabe !!\nindian-in-the-machine;\nThe LOve of the Universe is by our Side\nMohawk Bear Clan Woman Calls Queen's Bluff\nFrom: Orakwa\nTo: ActionCanadaNetwork\nSubject: MNN Katenies v Queen Oct. 18 Cornwall Court\nBrothers, Sisters, Friends and Allies: This is the document that Woman Title Holder, Katenies, served and filed on the Cornwall court on Monday December 18th 2006.

        "raw_content": "QUICK AND EASY MACBOOK REPAIRS THAT'LL SAVE YOU A SMALL FORTUNE\nEverybody's MacBook breaks. At some point or another, the hard drive will shudder to a stop; the display hinge won't hold up anymore; the logic board will cease to function. It's only a matter of time. Fortunately, you can fix most of it yourself. Here's how.\nDespite the prices at the Apple Store, MacBooks are remarkably durable and pretty cost-effective to fix. That is, if you know what you're doing. Apple banks on the vast majority of its users lacking computer technician skills, or at least the Genius Bar implies that you need to be much more experienced than you actually do to fix some simple things on the old MacBook Pro. But websites like iFixit offer amazingly helpful guides to fix almost everything in your machine.\nThere's a short list of things that typically need to be repaired or replaced, and you can probably do the work yourself. Your battery will fail. Your hard drive will sputter and die. Your RAM will buckle under the heavy workload of new software. Save yourself a trip to Apple Store and several hundred dollars with the help of this handy guide. We're using a mid-2009 MacBook Pro for our model, but the work on the other models is essentially the same (except when it isn't, and we've made note of that below).\nWe've also included links out to more detailed guides for all the models, and you should go straight to iFixit if you have a Retina model as they're built very differently. They're also more difficult to repair. And it almost goes without saying that MacBook Airs are a different animal\u2014the RAM is soldered on, for one thing\u2014though they can also be repaired. If you're one of the millions of people with a regular ol' MacBook Pro, though, this is the guide for you.\nThe BasicsIt seems very scary to start unscrewing the screws and pulling apart your MacBook, but trust us, it's perfectly safe. You just need to remember a couple of key things: don't spill anything inside and don't lose any of the screws. The spillage thing is obvious, but keep it in mind before you put a cup of coffee on your workstation. The screw thing, again, is obvious, but these things are tiny. It's not that hard for one to roll off the table, onto the carpet and out of your life. (It's smart to buy some extras in advance.) Also, be sure you're using a Phillips #00 screwdriver to avoid the unspeakable frustration of trying to fit the wrong tool into the right screw.\nAll MacBook repairs start at the same place: the bottom part of the case. Be sure your workspace is clear, and flip the machine over so that you're staring at the bottom. Around the edge you'll find ten screws: seven tiny 3mm-long screws (that are so easy to lose) and three 13.5mm-long screws. Unscrew and remove all of them. Lift back the front side of the case back, and then pull up on the back. You're in.\nA MacBook's hard drive has a limited lifespan. (That's what it gets for having moving parts.) But if you can operate a screwdriver, you can replace a hard drive. Before you start pulling anything apart, you'll definitely need to invest in a new hard drive. Try here. If you can afford the slightly higher price, you should absolutely upgrade your machine to a solid state drive (SSD). No seriously, I swapped my aging hard drive with an SSD from Critical, and my mid-2009 MacBook Pro felt brand new.\nThis one sounds like it would be hard, but it's frightfully easy. Removing your MacBook's hard drive can be done in a few easy steps. This is, of course, after you've backed up the old hard drive so that you can move the data onto your new one. If you want to start from scratch, you'll need to create a bootable OS X install drive which is easier than it sounds:\n1. Unscrew the two screws between the hard drive and the optical drive. The hard drive sits in the bottom corner of the machine to the left of the battery and just below the optical drive. It typically has a white sticker and the letters GB on it somewhere. Unscrew the two screws holding it in place and remove them, pulling the black bar immediately beneath them out too. (Note: Some 15\" models require you to remove the battery first. If you have one, check out the details at iFixit.)\n2. Unplug the hard drive. The hard drive will be connected to computer with a flat ribbon that has a large plug on the end. Gently pull that out of the hard drive, and you're almost home free. The last step is to remove the four Torx screws on either side of the drive. You'll need to install these in the same spot on the new hard drive, so that they can hold the part in place.\n3. Prep new drive. If you were smart and decided to do the SSD swap, you'll need a small spacer so that the slightly slimmer SSD drive will fit into the space where the old hard drive lived. Drop that into place, securing with adhesive if necessary, and install the Torx screws on the new drive. Finally, plug the flat ribbon into the new drive, return the black separator bar to its place, and you're ready to boot up!\n4. Partition new drive. After putting everything back together, start up your laptop. OS X will ask which hard drive you want to install the operating system, and you'll notice that your new SSD drive isn't an option. That's because you'll need to partition it using the Disk Utility. You can find the Disk Utility under Utilities on the top menu bar, and then follow partitioning instructions here.\nOnce the new drive is partitioned, you can go ahead and restore your old data from your back up. However, you might consider starting from scratch, like I did after installing my SSD drive. The improvements in speed and performance were just jaw-dropping. Read the step-by-step instructions at iFixit.\nBatteryApple really threw everyone for a loop when it came out with the unibody MacBook Pro that hid the battery inside that ridiculously pretty aluminum case. Of all the parts on the machine, the battery is undeniably one with a lifespan, so now it's a big pain when it comes time to replace the thing. Now, instead of flicking a release switch and snapping a new battery in like in the old days, you'll have to do a little surgery. But only a little.\nFirst, buy a new battery here. Check and double check that the battery you buy is compatible with your machine, as they're all a little bit different. Once you've got the back off of the machine, you can't miss the battery. It's the big black thing taking up nearly a quarter of all the space. To pull out the old one takes two steps:\n1. Unscrew the two screws on the inside edge of the battery. You'll need a special tri-wing Y1 screwdriver, and you can buy it here. (Note: The 17\" and some 15\" models have three screws instead of two. Check out the slight differences here and here, respectively.)\n2. Use your fingernail or a piece of plastic to unplug the battery from the logic board. Be careful not to disturb the two chips to the right of the plug! (Note: The plug for some of the 15\" models is on the side of the logic board instead of on top, but unplugging it is pretty self explanatory.)\nThe third and fourth steps of the procedure are obvious. Plug the new battery in and secure it to the machine with the two screws you pulled out (and hopefully didn't lose.) That's it! You can find more pictures and more detailed instructions at iFixit.\nChances are you'll eventually notice your computer slowing down, and it will annoy the hell out of you. This is perfectly natural. As software gets better and you get busier, you start hogging the computer's RAM more and more. Luckily, it's an insanely easy and satisfying upgrade to get back up to speed. That is, assuming you didn't max out the RAM on your machine when you bought it, in which case, you'll need to buy a new computer. If you can upgrade the RAM, spend exponentially less money and buy what you need here.\nBelieve it or not, swapping out the RAM in your machine doesn't take any tools, after you've removed the case from the back. The RAM slots are located just above the black battery, and the sticks themselves are just a little bit shorter and fatter than a stick of gum. Again, two steps to success:\n1. Remove the old RAM. If both slots are full, you'll need to take out the old RAM in order to install the new one. Just find the plastic tabs holding the top stick in on each side and pull those back. Now pull back on the RAM stick so that it just comes out of the slot, and lift up on the back to pull it out of the bay. The stick below it will be a little harder to get to, but the process is the same.\n2. Install the new RAM. Just do the reverse of what you just did. Push the exposed end into the slot, and push it down until it snaps into place. Go to iFixit for more pictures and details.\nTougher Repairs\nIt's obviously technically possible to repair a lot more on your MacBook, but more than two steps will be required for all of them. We don't recommend trying these out unless you're prepared to spend a decent amount of time doing laptop surgery, and you should be prepared to screw up a couple of times. In no particular order, some of the worthwhile but difficult repairs include:\n1. Tightening the display hinge. You know how after a couple of years, your MacBook display gets a little, errr, droopy? That's because a little part inside of the top case gets out of whack. It's easy enough to get back into whack, but you basically have to take apart the whole display to do it. This is how.\n2. Fixing a broken keyboard. Did you spill pink lemonade on your keyboard and short some stuff out? That was dumb. You've probably lost the use of a few keys, and you definitely want them back. Unfortunately, you can't just replace the keyboard on the new unibody MacBook Pros. You have to replace the entire top case. It'll cost you about $250, and you can find an installation guide here.\n3. Replace a broken logic board. This is the mother of all MacBook repairs not because it's the most difficult\u2014it almost is\u2014but because it will save you the most money. If you go to the Apple Store and let them replace the logic board, you might as well buy a new machine. If you buy a logic board on eBay and replace it yourself, you might as well kiss your weekend goodbye. You'll want this guide to show you the way.\nScott Wilkerson\nMan you guys literally saved my 300 bucks today\nSing Jewlers\nSKULL(((\nFU$K MACS\nHelped a bunch eh\nAvi to mp4 link\nHi! your blog is great full and image is nice use,you use a different type content thanks for sharing this post.\ncustom written thesis writing link\nThe best affair you can suffice to produce it faster is a modification to an SSD hard drive.

        "raw_content": "Above & Below:- Abergavenny Castle \u00a9 Crown copyright (2013) Visit Wales\nAbergavenny is a naturally fortified castle site located above the River Usk. Thought to have been originally fortified during the bronze and iron ages, it became the location of the Roman fort \u2018Gobannium\u2019 before the Normans built their castle on it on order of William the Conqueror in 1075.\nWithin the walls, can be found a circular mound, which is the oldest part of the castle and is attributed to Hamelin de Ballon (a Norman conqueror of the area around 1090) who threw up the Motte before the stone walls were build some time later.\nThe Castle has a turbulent history. In 1175 it was the site of the \u2018Massacre of Abergavenny\u2019 whereby William de Braose, the Lord of Abergavenny, decided to avenge the death of his wife's brother Henry. He did so by summoned his own eldest son, Geoffrey, and other leading local Welshmen, to the Castle on the pretence of hearing a royal proclamation. He then had them put to death when they expressed disapproval of the proclamation.\nThe Castle was attacked in 1182, following William de Braose being defeated in battle and Dingestow castle (towards Monmouth) destroyed. During the 12th century control of the castle passed back and forth between the Welsh and English as the \u2018Marches\u2019 changed hands.\nIt was during the 13th and 14th centuries that most of the building work was completed. Though the Castle was sacked in 1233. This time by Richard Marshal who was in alliance with the Welsh leader Llewellyn the Great.\nThe town and Castle of Abegavenny were also attacked, sacked and burnt during the rebellion of Owain Glyndwr in the 15th Century. Though the Castle did manage to fend off an infantry attack around that time, which perhaps reflects the view that a small garrison of archers and men at arms could often defend a Castle against an army such was the advantage provided by its walls and vantage points.\nThe Castle also saw action during the English civil war when it was slighted to prevent it being used by enemy forces. Enough remains of the Castle to confirm that, in its hay-day it must have been impressive with very high walls.",

Today was the deadline for carriers to decide whether they're in or out for OE4\nBZZZZZZT: Your time is up. Today was the deadline for carriers to decide whether they're in or out for OE4\nLots of healthcare reporters, pundits, executives, providers and politicians are likely issuing a huge sigh of relief at this moment, because after month after month of various insurance carriers announcing that they're dropping off the ACA exchange in certain counties only, state-wide or even dropping out of the individual market entirely (or that they're going out of business altogether, as in the case of four more co-ops), today was the deadline for carriers to officially commit to participating in the 2017 Open Enrollment Period starting on November 1st.\nNow, it's important to note that this may only refer to the 39 states which will be operating on the federal exchange (HealthCare.Gov). This was 38 last year, but Kentucky's \"kynect\" exchange had the plug pulled for no reason whatsoever by GOP Governor Matt Bevin last winter, so they'll be joining the mothership this year as well. That leaves 11 states (+DC) running their own full exchange platform; those states may have different signing deadlines.\nIn any event, the only major last-minute news I'm aware of today is in Nebraska, where Blue Cross Blue Shield decided to drop out at the (literal) last minute, and Pennsylvania, where Highmark (which many were afraid was also going to drop out) announced that they'll be sticking around for at least another year.\nThere may be some more last-minute surprises to come--bear in mind that last year, news about several of the co-ops failing didn't actually hit the news until sometime in October--but this should lock in just which carriers will and will not be participating for 2017.\nAssuming no one else bails (or \"suspends additional enrollment\" partway through the period, which also happened a couple of times last year), the official tally of participating carriers should be set as of now.",

        "raw_content": "I had written and I thought posted this last night, and again twice tonight, but it looks like it didn't work for some reason, so here's what I think I wrote.\nContinuing with the \"it's hard to fathom how old these things are\" theme of my time in England....\nWednesday we went to see the standing stones of Avebury and then onto Bath to see the hot springs bathes built during the Roman occupation of Britain, around 50 A.D.\nThe stones were amazing. I think they are much more mysterious in the fog and frost. Matt and I both really enjoy photography, so we got all artsy with the pictures. We were practically the only people there. Anne and Chris hurried through for two reasons. One, it was freaking cold and two, there was a cartoon in the 1960's in Britain called \"The Stones are Alive\" which featured, well, the stones coming alive and chasing children. So you can see why Anne was justifiably a tad bit creeped out.\nBath was amazing. We had a fantastic meal at a restaurant named Browns. I had a sea bass on couscous with pomegranate seeds. Seriously good. Everyone warned me the food in England would be bland and expensive, but I really didn't find it to be that at all. I had really nice meals and as locals, Anne and Matt took me to non-touristy places. I also had sticky toffee pudding every chance I got. If you haven't it, you should. It's a steamed spongy cake, usually with dates, covered in a toffee sauce and usually served with ice cream or a custard sauce. This one came with a scoop of clotted cream, which is kind of like when you whip cream just a tad past the whipped cream stage, but it's not quite butter yet. I forgot that's what it was and took a spoonful with blueberries, and said \"that's not ice cream\". Everyone laughed. It was tasty, but a wee bit over the top for having a spoonful like that.\nI loved the Roman Baths. It is so interesting how much they've unearthed and how much they've figured out about life so long ago. The cathedral just outside the baths was amazing. The flying buttresses were really lovely. We didn't have much time in Bath other than for the Roman Baths because it gets dark so early at this time of the year.\nI'm hurrying through this today because I need to get up early tomorrow and drive quite a way on the other side of the road than I'm used to driving on. I'm currently in my absolute favorite place in the world, Scotland. I'm staying at an abbey on the shores of Loch Ness in an amazing apt. Tomorrow I'm driving to Skye, and it's not good to do so tired. I'll post more on that very soon.\nSo here's the pics of Avebury and Bath:\nThe stones and birds in Avebury\nThe Bath Cathedral\nA wishing well going back to Romans throwing in coins and wishing\nA store window in Bath that I liked\nI can just picture a Highlander sword fight around those stones. There can be only one!",

        "raw_content": "Although the Suez Canal captured all of the increase in post-Panamax container ship traffic diverted to the East Coast from Asia during recent months of West Coast port congestion, the Panama Canal saw a big increase in the number of containers loaded aboard the Panamax ships on the 10 all-water services from Asia that use that route.\n\u201cWe are not getting more ships, but what we have seen is more loaded containers,\u201d Panama Canal Administrator Jorge Quijano said. \u201cCarriers are loading more containers on their ships to the East Coast, so we are benefitting from that because we charge on loaded containers as well as on the ship.\u201d\nSpot rates from Asia to the U.S. East Coast reflect the sharp increase in demand for space on ships bound for the East Coast. Spot rates from Asia to the U.S. East Coast in mid-February before the Chinese New Year were almost double year-over year earlier as shippers sought alternate routes through the Suez and Panama Canals. Spot rates to the West Coast were up about 10 percent.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s shifting now is that the vessels are shifting through the Suez Canal, because almost all of them are 8,000 TEUS and above and some up to 14,000 TEUS are arriving at West Coast ports,\u201d Quijano said.\nIt is likely to take months to clear up the backlog of ships waiting to unload at West Coast ports now, so cargo diversions to the East Coast will probably continue for at least the first half of the year.\nQuijano hopes to retain the increase in container volumes and boost its still further next year when the Panama Canal Authority opens the new set of locks under construction that will accommodate the post-Panamax ships that are now using the Suez Canal to travel from Asia to the East Coast.\n\u201cIf this persists and we are able to open the new locks in the first quarter of next year, at the latest by April 1, then there could be a significant shift of post-Panamax vessels through here,\u201d Quijano said. \u201cThere\u2019s definitely going to be some shifting from the West Coast to the East Coast through the Panama Canal, which may become permanent.\u201d\nThe canal agency is proposing a new toll structure on container shipping that it wants to introduce in the second quarter of next year after the new lock open.\n\u201cWe are taking more risk under the new toll structure to lure more liners to come over and maybe re-network around the Panama Canal.\u201d Quijano said.\nThe new structure rewards frequent container customers with premium prices once they reach a particular volume of 20-foot-equivalent units on ships transiting the canal.\n\u201cIn our proposal, we are planning to lure not only the liners individually but the alliances as well by our loyalty program,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you are in an alliance, you will get credit for transits by the vessels in that string. If you are in an alliance where NYK has some part of the vessel and \u201cK\u201d Line has some part of the string as well, then if the alliance has two transits, each will get credit for two transits. The more vessels in that alliance passing through the canal, the more each member carrier will benefit from the canal\u2019s new loyalty structure.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Techniques for Advertising\nBelow, I describe techniques that are useful to those in advertising. For ambiguities or mistakes on the thumbnail sketches, send e-mail to Scott Armstrong. For more on group process techniques to enhance productivity and creativity, go to Group Process. Revised August 2004.\nBrainstorming (and Brainwriting):\nBrainstorming is a highly structured set of rules to enhance creativity. They should be used only for short sessions, say ten minutes. The rules have one major guideline: to reduce evaluation. To make brainstorming work, you must appoint a facilitator and use a checklist A more effective alternative, especially for small groups, is \u201cbrainwriting,\u201d where you take a short time for individual thinking and writing (I suggest seven to ten minutes) and ask people to write down all their ideas. This is typically used to generate creative solutions, but the problem can be expanded first by brainstorming problems. Brainwriting will save a great deal of time for groups.\nClosing the deal: A method whereby a person attempts to solidify a deal. Some techniques for this are suggesting realistic action steps, offering an incentive (i.e., low price) to consummate the deal right away, asking directly for the order, or getting the prospective buyer to make minor choices as to color, size, etc. (foot-in-the-door), or asking a client, \u201cWhat do we need to do to implement these proposals?\u201d\nCopy testing: While prior research helps in the design of an ad, it is often useful to develop tests of alternative copies to see which of them will be most effective. You can examine whether the ad is understood, or believed, and whether it would lead one to take action. This can be done in a laboratory setting.\nDecomposition of judgment: This is one of the basic strategies of management science: Break a complex problem into pieces, solve each piece, and then reassemble. Use for estimating response to an advertisement. Additive breakdowns are safer than multiplicative ones. For more on this see MacGregor\u2019s \u201cDecomposition for Judgmental Forecasting and Estimation.\u201d\nDelphi (a procedure named after the oracle at Delphi): First, each group member reads about a problem. Then each person makes an independent estimate before any discussion takes place. The estimates should be treated anonymously. A summary will then be provided of the group's responses. After this summary has been examined, groups will discuss various proposals for a period of time, say ten minutes. Then, each person will again make an independent and anonymous estimate and a group summary will be prepared. Additional rounds can be done. This procedure provides substantial improvements in accuracy over ratings by unstructured groups. It can be done on paper or by software.\nDiffusion of innovations:Advertising should be tailored to the stage in the diffusion process. For example, special media and messages are needed to reach early adopters. As you plan the campaign for a relatively new product, consider how the plan should change as the product matures.\nExperimentation: Consider the use of laboratory and field experiments to test your ads and your campaign. Traditional designs can be used for the laboratory experiments, while the field experiments often call for quasi-experimental design (see Campbell, Donald T. and J. C. Stanley, 1966, Experimental and Quasi-experimental Designs for Research. Chicago: Rand McNally).\nExpert systems: Explicit rules derived from studying experts as they solve problems. In addition, previous studies of relationships may be useful. These rules are generally conditional statements (If X then Y).\nFocus group: Use the same procedure as for a nondirective interview, but apply it on a group basis. A popular and overused technique that costs more than $2,000 per session, but you can do a decent job (with friends) at a low cost. Use early in projects to generate ideas (e.g. about target market needs). It is only useful in rare situations. It may be useful for ideas about advertising products that are highly visible and when a buyer\u2019s decision is based on what others think of him (i.e. have you ever heard of a liberal professor who drives a Cadillac?) One cannot draw statistical inferences from focus groups. Interestingly, the skill requirements to run a focus group are not high. In general, non-directive interviewing with individuals (group depth interviews) are more effective. For more, see \"When Should You Use Focus Groups?\"\nFormal planning:This is improves group performance only when the group is small enough to reach commitment. It has four stages: (1) set objectives (2) generate alternative strategies, (3) evaluate strategies, and (4) monitor results. New product introductions that do each step explicitly are more likely to succeed. In practice, few firms do this. See Systems Approach, Marketing Planning, and Planning Process Checklist.\nGallery Writing: This can be done manually or electronically. In the manual mode, group members silently write unsigned suggestions about the discussion topic on flip charts. They then post the pages on the walls. Others write comments on the suggestions. This approach is effective and is well liked by participants (Aiken and Vanjani 2003).\nGatekeepers: Who is it that makes the purchase decision? Often this differs according to the consumer, as for household versus industrial purchases. Consider that you may have to target advertising to the gatekeepers in order to reach the final consumers.\nIndex Method: To develop an index model, use prior knowledge (i.e., prior empirical evidence or expert domain knowledge) to prepare a list of predictor variables. There is no limit on the number of predictor variables that can be used. Specify for each variable whether it has a positive or negative influence on the outcome variable, or define the variable in such a way that it has a positive influence.\nAlternatively and more simply, score 1 for a positive influence and zero otherwise. (When there are only two choices, one can also pick the option that dominates.) Finally, add the scores to calculate the value of the index. The higher the index value, the more likely it is that the outcome will occur such that the better the score for an ad, the more likely it is to persuade. The index method is useful if there are many important variables, good prior knowledge on the direction of the effect, and the values of causal variables can be assessed at least subjectively (e.g. as zero or one). The method is especially useful if a large number of causal variables are important, and valid and reliable quantitative data are scarce relative to the number of variables. The method easily accommodates new causal variables should they arise. Its primary disadvantage is that it is difficult to estimate effect sizes.\nIntentions surveys: Ask people whether they intend to purchase your product. In some cases, this can provide a useful way to forecast.\nMarginal analysis: When setting the media budget, the optimal budget should have equal marginal returns. Thus, if you can get a larger return by spending an additional $100 dollars on radio rather than on newspaper ads, you should shift money into radio until the marginal returns are equal.\nMonitoring: This is a formal process to review the performance against the plan.\nNon-directive interviewing: The listener follows a set of rules to help suspend judgment and focus attention on listening.\nObjectives Setting: Organizations often confuse objectives (where they want to be) with strategy (how to get there). Studies in organizational behavior show that groups can improve their effectiveness by setting objectives that are (1) explicit, (2) measurable, (3) relevant, (4) ambitious yet achievable, and (5) operational. This should apply to an advertising campaign.\nOpinion leaders: We turn to particular friends for advice on certain topics (e.g. What movie should I see?). In the early stages of a product\u2019s life cycle, it is often cost effective to advertise to opinion leaders in hopes that they will spread the message by word of mouth.\nParallel processing: Divide your group into two or more subunits and have each unit independently solve the same problem. Then compare the results to select the best solution (or to modify it). This is useful for creativity. It also helps to guard against mistakes in analyses (seldom do sub-groups make the same mistakes).\nSecond solution: Assume that your preferred solution is not feasible. Develop a new solution to compare with the old and decide which is best. This procedure is useful for improving creativity in groups.\nSimulated interaction: A realistic acting-out of the relationships involved in a situation. This technique asks subjects to reach a decision by going through the same typed of interactions that might occur in the real situation (e.g. in meetings or by exchanging messages). It has been found to be especially useful for situations involving conflicts among groups. See paper by Green (2002).\nStakeholder analysis: The success of a firm depends upon the cooperative efforts of various groups that make contributions (e.g. stockholders, employees, creditors, customers, suppliers, etc.). Consider how your advertising campaign will meet the need of each stakeholder.\nSurvey research: Useful for assessing customer needs and also for assessing expert opinion about how customers will react to an ad. Extensive research has led to effective procedures - the best summary of these is in Dillman, Don, Mail and Internet Surveys. It is easy to look at a survey and tell whether the creators have used the research in designing it. For more, see surveys.\nSystems approach: Look first at objectives then at alternative strategies. In each case, start at the highest conceptual level, and then make the objectives and strategies more operational. It sounds easy, but it requires time and discipline. The systems approach enables people to go outside of current solutions and to produce rational yet often surprising solutions. For details, see Systems Approach.\nTime line: This is the process of allocating one's time in accordance with the tasks one must accomplish. This method allows one to break down one\u2019s jobs into small tasks. One of the essential components of a time budget is slack time. With slack time, people can deal with inevitable setbacks without upsetting their schedules. PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique) can be used to create a time budget. CPM, the Critical Path Method, is another method. Do the time line, show relationships, and estimate times. Then figure which path is determining the time to completion. You might then consider changes to this critical path to shorten the time or to introduce slack. (See Time Lines. )\nTwo-step-flow: Consider that advertising information often flows from the advertiser to the opinion leader (or to a gatekeeper), then to the consumer. What can the advertiser do to ensure that this flow of information is effective? One technique that you can use here is to simulate this flow of information analogous to the game of telephone. Test your ad to see whether the most important information is successfully transmitted to each person.\nVirtual group: A group in which members work on a common problem, yet they do not meet face-to-face. They might interact in other ways, such as via telephone, email, or websites - or they might not interact at all. Delphi is a form of a virtual group that allows for some interaction. Markets are another form, but they do not provide for interaction among group members. Virtual groups avoid many of the problems of groups, such as \"group-think.\" Thus, they use information more effectively, and they save time. In face-to-face groups, influence depends on such irrelevant things as how much people talk (people who talk more do not necessarily know more) and gender (males talk much more than females). In virtual groups, influence depends more on performance. Finally, because of the need to write, virtual groups leave a paper trail that aids in communication.",

Be Cut Off SCRIPTURES (should be read first)\nMoses and Aaron were responsible for planning and supervising the work of the Kohathites, so that they did not commit any capital offenses in carrying out their duties. Each of the 2,750 eligible Kohathites, by name (v. 32), was given a specific task to be performed in a specific order, so that there would be no accidental overstepping of boundaries, which would bring death. (V.20) Aaron and his sons were required to wrap the holiest items, and then the Kohathites could carry them, without being able to look upon them.\nThere is a debate about what the problem was: were the Kohathites afraid to perform tasks for the Tabernacle, and therefore had to be assigned definite tasks? Or were they so eager to do the work, that they had to be assigned limited tasks so as not to accidentally push too far and die?\nIsrael experienced a great defeat in battle with the Philistines, losing about 4,000 soldiers (1 Samuel 4:2). So, the elders of Israel decided to take the Ark of the Covenant of Yahweh with them to defeat the enemy. But, the Philistines took the Ark, and killed the two sons of Eli, who were with it. Upon hearing the news, Eli, a heavy, elderly man, fell backwards and broke his neck, dying on the spot. His daughter-in-law gave birth immediately, without showing interest for her child, because of the news about the Ark of Yahweh.\nNow, the Philistines took the Ark of Yahweh to the house of their god Dagon. The next morning, the great stone Dagon was found lying on the floor. So, he was set upright again. But, the following morning, Dagon was found lying on the floor again, with his head and hands smashed on the threshold. Never again would the priests of Dagon tread on the thresholds of his house.\nThen, God smote the Philistines with rats, and hemorrhoids so severe that many were dying. The priests of Dagon responded that the Ark should be returned to Israel, with an offering of five golden hemorrhoids and five golden rats!\nTwo cows that were nursing mothers were to pull a new wooden cart with the Ark and a box containing the offerings. If the cows did not turn after their nursing calves, but headed straight to Beit Shemesh (House of the Sun), then they were to know that Yahweh had brought the plagues upon them.\nWhen the Ark returned, the cart was broken up for fire-wood, and the cows used for an offering to Yahweh, for the return of the Ark. But, many of the Israelites looked into the Ark, and died there. So, the people of Beit Shemesh sent for the Levites to take the Ark to its appropriate place.\nThe Haftarah tells us that 50,070 Israelites were killed for looking into the Ark, when it was sent back from the land of the Philistines. The people then said: \u201cWho is able to stand before Yahweh, this holy God?\u201d The holiness of Yahweh is a major point of this Torah portion.\nThose who take pride in their own ways, pouring forth their own words, are called \u201cstupid ones\u201d in today\u2019s Psalm. Do they think that God, who created eyes, does not see? Or He who created ears, does He not hear? Yahweh knows our thoughts, and blessed are the ones whom He chastens, that they may learn Torah!\nPaul tells us how each member of the body has different gifts, all to be used for helping the body to be healthy. Like the consideration of the Kohathite problem, we should earnestly desire gifts to further God\u2019s work, but not push further than is proper. We must not arrogantly claim \u201cgifts\u201d to make a front of being spiritual. We must not pour forth our own words. One who is \u201cprophesying\u201d must expound God\u2019s Words \u2013 Torah, regardless of language. \u201cIf they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them\u201d \u2013 Isaiah 8:20.\nIn today\u2019s \u201cMessianic\u201d world, we have at least two major areas of spiritual pride: those who claim \u201cspiritual gifts\u201d, such as a false \u201cspeaking in tongues\u201d or \u201cwords of knowledge\u201d; and Kabalistic teaching, where \u201creading between the lines\u201d of Torah is taught by those who lack understanding of the real lines of Torah. Those who seek salvation and recognition through this kind of \u201cwonderful works\u201d will hear, \u201cI never knew you; depart from me, you who work iniquity\u201d \u2013 Matthew 7:23.\nSalvation is by Yeshua, through faith in Him, not by our \u201cwonderful works\u201d. Our gifts and duties here are for the purpose of building-up His church (Matthew 16:18), not for our glory but for God\u2019s glory.\nGod is holy \u2013 different from us. Our ways are not His ways. We are to learn holiness \u2013 a requirement for seeing Him (Hebrews 12:14).\nToday\u2019s portion is about duties and service.\nThe total number of males from one month old in the tribe of Levi was 22,300. Service-eligible male Levites from age 30 \u2013 50 were: family of Gershon \u2013 2630, Kohath \u2013 2750, Merari \u2013 3200; total 8580. The remaining two-thirds were younger than 30, older than 50, or otherwise ineligible.\nTheir duties were very specifically assigned and supervised. While the family of Kohath was responsible for carrying the sacred articles, all three families were equally important and to be equally honored: this is based on (v.22) God\u2019s instruction that the Gershonites should also be \u201craised up\u201d \u2013 counted.\nBeside the work of carrying, the \u201cwork of service\u201d (v.47) is explained as performing musical accompaniment (Arachin 11a).\n(Lev 5) Before the Tabernacle could be erected, the camp must be purified of tumah \u2013 contamination associated with death or a result of the fall.\nOne who has stolen, failed to repay a loan, or failed to pay wages on time \u2013 in order to become clean before God, is required to make confession, repay with an added twenty percent, and bring a ram for atonement. If the victim is deceased with no kin, then the restitution is to be given to the priests serving in the Temple.\nThe Torah is here teaching that it is forbidden for us to take anything that God has not given to us, whether great or small, whether from a wealthy person or someone whom we think \u201cowes us\u201d, or anything we have dedicated \u2013 such as tithes separated but not distributed.\nThe person, who would serve God, must have this heart attitude to desire holiness. Continual repentance is a requirement to be clean. Saying, \u201cIf I have sinned, forgive me,\u201d is insufficient toward God or man. One needs to seek God\u2019s word to show him his errors, and make restitution, and correction of his ways.\nSo the Psalmist says, (Psalm 95:4-13),\n\u201cMake me know Thy ways, O Yahweh; teach me Thy paths. Lead me in Thy truth and teach me, for Thou art the God of my salvation; for Thee I wait all the day. Remember, O Yahweh, Thy compassion and Thy lovingkindnesses, for they have been from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to Thy lovingkindness remember Thou me, for Thy goodness' sake, O Yahweh. Good and upright is Yahweh; therefore He instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in justice, and He teaches the humble His way. 1All the paths of Yahweh are lovingkindness and truth to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies. For Thy name's sake, O Yahweh, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great. Who is the man who fears Yahweh? He will instruct him in the way he should choose. His soul will abide in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.\u201d\nAnanias and Sapphira owned property: it was in their control, and they could have legitimately sold it and kept all of the money. But, they sold it and said that they were giving all of the money to the church \u2013 which means it was dedicated to God. However, they actually kept part of the money. Peter said that was \u201clying to the Holy Spirit\u201d (v.3). Each of them fell dead upon confirming that they had \u201cgiven the whole price\u201d. They stole dedicated property, and they lied before the church, in order to falsely appear as spiritual as others who gave all.\nThis was written \u201cfor our admonition,\u201d that we should know our hearts, and not make a pretense of spirituality.\nSuch fear came upon others, concerning this Holy God, that they were afraid to join the church, though they held it in high esteem! Do we have to see people die for disrespecting God, before we recognize His holiness? Are we convinced, by the religious world of today, that God only attributed sin to former generations; that we live in a different age, when we can do whatever seems right to us? Do outsiders hold us in high esteem because they can recognize the honest level of holiness by which we live?\nWe have an Holy God. We must be truthful, and honest in our dealings. We must learn to repent with confession and restitution, to be in right standing with God. Yeshua did not \u201cdo it all,\u201d such that we are \u201cfree\u201d to do whatever we wish with impunity.\n\u201cDo not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap\u201d \u2013 Galatians 6:7.\n\u201cHe chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him\u201d \u2013 Ephesians 1:4.\n\u201cTherefore, gird your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, \u2018You shall be holy, for I am holy.\u2019 And if you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each man's work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay upon earth; knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Messiah\u201d \u2013 1 Peter 1:13-19.\nThe purpose of the Tabernacle and priesthood is to show us God\u2019s holiness, and our promise of future glory in righteousness. We cannot live for sin here, and truthfully say that our hope is in a future righteous state.\nThe Kohathites\nThen Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 18 \"Do not let the tribe of the families of the Kohathites be cut off from among the Levites. 19 \"But do this to them that they may live and not die when they approach the most holy objects: Aaron and his sons shall go in and assign each of them to his work and to his load; 20 but they shall not go in to see the holy objects even for a moment, or they will die.\"\nToday\u2019s portion starts with the Kohathites. As was mentioned last week Moses and Aaron were Levites and were also from Kohath.\nEx 6:18 The sons of Kohath: Amram and Izhar and Hebron and Uzziel; and the length of Kohath's life was one hundred and thirty-three years.\nNum 26:59 The name of Amram's wife was Jochebed, the daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; and she bore to Amram: Aaron and Moses and their sister Miriam.\nIt\u2019s interesting to note that once again we see the pattern of the second born having precedence over the firstborn. Kohath was the second born of Levi and Moses was the second born of Amram. However, Amram was the firstborn of Kohath and would have been the one to carry out the priestly line and Aaron was the firstborn of Amram and was chosen to be the High Priest by God.\nThe Kohathites were placed above their brothers and given the responsibility to carry the most sacred objects in the Tabernacle. So how were Moses and Aaron \u201cnot to let the tribe of the families of the Kohathites be cut off from among the Levites\u201d?\nIt was Aaron and his son\u2019s responsibility to make sure that every thing was covered so that when the Kohathites came in to carry it out they didn\u2019t die by simply looking at the sacred objects uncovered.\nTargum Pseudo-Jonathan says it this way, \u201cThou shalt not give occasion for the tribe of the family of Kehath to perish among the Levites. But this appointment make thou for them, that they may live the life of the just, and die not by the flaming fire; they shall turn away their eyes from the Most Holy Place at the time they approach thither. Aharon and his sons shall enter, and appoint them man by man to his service and his burden. But they shall not go in to gaze, when the priests go in to cover the vessels of the sanctuary, that they die not by the flaming fire.\u201d\nThe Covering Process\n(from last weeks portion)\n1. Aaron and his sons \u2013 Kohanim \u2013 take down the curtain (that separated the Holy of Holies from the Holiest Place and cover the Ark with it. \u201cShall put the poles in place\u2026\u201d \u2013 This implies that the staves (poles) would now be inserted into the rings. This isn\u2019t really a good translation, unlike the staves (poles) of the Table of Showbread and the Altar, which were inserted only for transport, it is forbidden ever to remove the staves of the Ark from their rings. Ex 25:15 \u2013 \u201cThe poles shall remain in the rings of the Ark: they shall not be removed from it.\u201d It should be understood to mean that the staves were placed on the shoulders of the Levites, or that they were adjusted within their rings to facilitate the Levites\u2019 task of carrying the Ark (Rambam; Yoma 72a)\n2. Then the table of showbread. The placement of the covers reveals a hierarchy of holiness. The show-bread remained on the Table at all times \u2013 and is therefore called \u201cconstant bread\u201d in this verse (v. 7); it was covered with turquoise wool, which symbolized the highest degree of holiness. The utensils were then placed on top and then everything was covered again.\n3. Then the Menorah.\n4. Then the altar of gold. (inner - Altar of Incense)\n5. Then the altar. (outer \u2013 where the sacrifices where made)\n6. Then the Kohathites may come and move the objects.\nThe Transporting\nThe remaining items of the Tabernacle were taken down by the Gershonites and Merarites only after the most sacred objects were covered and removed. Then they were packed and loaded on to carts for transportation. Here\u2019s yet annother difference - the Kohathites actually carried the objects by their poles (Num 7:9) whereas the Gershonites and Merarites used carts to transport the objects under their care (Num 7:6).\nThe exact point at which the Tabernacle joined in the people\u2019s journeys is a subject of dispute. According to Rashi and Rashbam, it was dismantled after Judah began to journey and it began to move after Reuben. According to Ibn Ezra and Sforno, it traveled between Judah and Reuben. Ibn Ezra qualifies this: The parts of the building moved after Judah, but the more sacred parts, such as the Ark, which were borne by the Kohathites and accompanied by the Kohanim, moved after Reuben.\nWhatever the order, it is clear that the centrality of the Tabernacle was preserved even during travel, for the Torah refers to it as the \u201cTent of Meeting\u201d even after it was taken apart. The Talmud (Menachos 95a; Zevachim 61b, 116b) teaches that the camps retained their relative degrees of sanctity even in transit, so that offerings that had to be eaten within the Israelite camp could still be eaten in transit (R\u2019Hirsch).\nThe sages say that this is a vital lesson for life: Judaism is not restricted to home, synagogue, and everyday activities. One must maintain his sanctity even as a tourist and traveler.\nThe Philistines And The Ark\nIn our haftarah portion we read that -\nIsrael experienced a great defeat in battle with the Philistines, losing about 4,000 soldiers (1 Samuel 4:2). So, the elders of Israel decided to take the Ark of the Covenant of Yahweh with them to defeat the enemy. But, the Philistines took the Ark, and killed the two sons of Eli, who were with it. Upon hearing the news, Eli, a heavy, elderly man, fell backwards and broke his neck, dying on the spot.\nThey had the ark for 7 months. During that time they took the Ark of Yahweh to the house of their god Dagon. The next morning, the great stone Dagon was found lying on the floor. So, he was set upright again. But, the following morning, Dagon was found lying on the floor again, with his head and hands smashed on the threshold.\nThey kept moving the ark around to the different cities and everywhere it went that area was struck with rats and ? and many died. Some translations have hemorrhoids others have tumors. It seems no one is quite sure what the Hebrew word \u201cemerod\u201d means. I\u2019m not sure how a bunch of people would have died from hemorrhoids and even tumors I wonder about. Is it possible that they were perhaps boils like the plague we saw at Egypt?\nThe priests of Dagon responded that the Ark should be returned to Israel, with an offering of five golden \u201cemerods\u201d and five golden rats!\nTwo cows that were nursing mothers were to pull a new wooden cart with the Ark of the Covenant and a box containing the offerings. If the cows did not turn after their nursing calves, but headed straight to Beit Shemesh (House of the Sun), then they were to know that Yahweh had brought the plagues upon them.\nWhen the Ark returned, the cart was broken up for fire-wood, and the cows used for an offering to Yahweh, for the return of the Ark.\n1Sa 6:15 The Levites took down the ark of Yahweh and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to Yahweh.\nThe Levites put it out for all to see\u2026they should have known better.\n1Sa 6:19 He struck down some of the men of Beth-shemesh because they had looked into the ark of Yahweh. He struck down of all the people, 50,070 men, and the people mourned because Yahweh had struck the people with a great slaughter.\n1Sa 6:20 The men of Beth-shemesh said, \"Who is able to stand before Yahweh, this holy God? And to whom shall He go up from us?\"\nThe holiness of Yahweh is a major point of this Torah portion.\nThe Body Of Messiah\nFor even as the body is one and {yet} has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Messiah. (I Cor 12:12) For the body is not one member, but many. (I Cor 12:14) But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired. If they were all one member, where would the body be? But now there are many members, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, \"I have no need of you\"; or again the head to the feet, \"I have no need of you.\" On the contrary, it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; and those {members} of the body which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our less presentable members become much more presentable, whereas our more presentable members have no need {of it.} But God has {so} composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that {member} which lacked, so that there may be no division in the body, but {that} the members may have the same care for one another. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if {one} member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now you are Christ's body, and individually members of it. (I Cor 12:18-27)\nLike the Levites in today\u2019s Torah portion we see that God has created everyone for a specific task and we are all necessary to get the job done. Even the smallest of jobs is important for the success of the whole.\nReader 1* Amen. 17 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 18 \"Do not let the tribe of the families of the Kohathites be cut off from among the Levites. 19 \"But do this to them that they may live and not die when they approach the most holy objects: Aaron and his sons shall go in and assign each of them to his work and to his load; 20 but they shall not go in to see the holy objects even for a moment, or they will die.\"\nReader 2* Amen. 21 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 22 \"Take a census of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers' households, by their families; 23 from thirty years and upward to fifty years old, you shall number them; all who enter to perform the service to do the work in the tent of meeting. 24 \"This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in carrying: 25 they shall carry the curtains of the tabernacle and the tent of meeting with its covering and the covering of porpoise skin that is on top of it, and the screen for the doorway of the tent of meeting, 26 and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the doorway of the gate of the court which is around the tabernacle and the altar, and their cords and all the equipment for their service; and all that is to be done, they shall perform. 27 \"All the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their loads and in all their work, shall be performed at the command of Aaron and his sons; and you shall assign to them as a duty all their loads. 28 \"This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting, and their duties shall be under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.\nReader 3* Amen. 29 \"As for the sons of Merari, you shall number them by their families, by their fathers' households; 30 from thirty years and upward even to fifty years old, you shall number them, everyone who enters the service to do the work of the tent of meeting. 31 \"Now this is the duty of their loads, for all their service in the tent of meeting: the boards of the tabernacle and its bars and its pillars and its sockets, 32 and the pillars around the court and their sockets and their pegs and their cords, with all their equipment and with all their service; and you shall assign each man by name the items he is to carry. 33 \"This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service in the tent of meeting, under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.\"\nReader 4* Amen. 34 So Moses and Aaron and the leaders of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites by their families and by their fathers' households, 35 from thirty years and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered the service for work in the tent of meeting. 36 Their numbered men by their families were 2,750. 37 These are the numbered men of the Kohathite families, everyone who was serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of Yahweh through Moses. 38 The numbered men of the sons of Gershon by their families and by their fathers' households, 39 from thirty years and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered the service for work in the tent of meeting. 40 Their numbered men by their families, by their fathers' households, were 2,630. 41 These are the numbered men of the families of the sons of Gershon, everyone who was serving in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of Yahweh.\nReader 5* Amen. 42 The numbered men of the families of the sons of Merari by their families, by their fathers' households, 43 from thirty years and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who entered the service for work in the tent of meeting. 44 Their numbered men by their families were 3,200. 45 These are the numbered men of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of Yahweh through Moses. 46 All the numbered men of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the leaders of Israel numbered, by their families and by their fathers' households, 47 from thirty years and upward even to fifty years old, everyone who could enter to do the work of service and the work of carrying in the tent of meeting. 48 Their numbered men were 8,580. 49 According to the commandment of Yahweh through Moses, they were numbered, everyone by his serving or carrying; thus these were his numbered men, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.\nReader 6* Amen. 5:1 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 \"Command the sons of Israel that they send away from the camp every leper and everyone having a discharge and everyone who is unclean because of a dead person. 3 \"You shall send away both male and female; you shall send them outside the camp so that they will not defile their camp where I dwell in their midst.\" 4 The sons of Israel did so and sent them outside the camp; just as Yahweh had spoken to Moses, thus the sons of Israel did.\nReader 7* Amen. 5 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 6 \"Speak to the sons of Israel, 'When a man or woman commits any of the sins of mankind, acting unfaithfully against Yahweh, and that person is guilty, 7 then he shall confess his sins which he has committed, and he shall make restitution in full for his wrong and add to it one-fifth of it, and give it to him whom he has wronged. 8 'But if the man has no relative to whom restitution may be made for the wrong, the restitution which is made for the wrong must go to Yahweh for the priest, besides the ram of atonement, by which atonement is made for him. 9 'Also every contribution pertaining to all the holy gifts of the sons of Israel, which they offer to the priest, shall be his. 10 'So every man's holy gifts shall be his; whatever any man gives to the priest, it becomes his.'\"\nReader 8* Amen. 1 Now the ark of Yahweh had been in the country of the Philistines seven months. 2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, \"What shall we do with the ark of Yahweh? Tell us how we shall send it to its place.\" 3 They said, \"If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty; but you shall surely return to Him a guilt offering. Then you will be healed and it will be known to you why His hand is not removed from you.\" 4 Then they said, \"What shall be the guilt offering which we shall return to Him?\" And they said, \"Five golden tumors and five golden mice according to the number of Yahwehs of the Philistines, for one plague was on all of you and on your lords. 5 \"So you shall make likenesses of your tumors and likenesses of your mice that ravage the land, and you shall give glory to the God of Israel; perhaps He will ease His hand from you, your gods, and your land.\nReader 9* Amen. 6 \"Why then do you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When He had severely dealt with them, did they not allow the people to go, and they departed? 7 \"Now therefore, take and prepare a new cart and two milch cows on which there has never been a yoke; and hitch the cows to the cart and take their calves home, away from them. 8 \"Take the ark of Yahweh and place it on the cart; and put the articles of gold which you return to Him as a guilt offering in a box by its side. Then send it away that it may go. 9 \"Watch, if it goes up by the way of its own territory to Beth-shemesh, then He has done us this great evil. But if not, then we will know that it was not His hand that struck us; it happened to us by chance.\" 10 Then the men did so, and took two milch cows and hitched them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home. 11 They put the ark of Yahweh on the cart, and the box with the golden mice and the likenesses of their tumors. 12 And the cows took the straight way in the direction of Beth-shemesh; they went along the highway, lowing as they went, and did not turn aside to the right or to the left. And the lord of the Philistines followed them to the border of Beth-shemesh.\nReader 10* Amen. 13 Now the people of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley, and they raised their eyes and saw the ark and were glad to see it. 14 The cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite and stood there where there was a large stone; and they split the wood of the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to Yahweh. 15 The Levites took down the ark of Yahweh and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to Yahweh. 16 When the five lords of the Philistines saw it, they returned to Ekron that day.\nReader 11* Amen. 17 These are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned for a guilt offering to Yahweh: one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron; 18 and the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fortified cities and of country villages. The large stone on which they set the ark of Yahweh is a witness to this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite. 19 He struck down some of the men of Beth-shemesh because they had looked into the ark of Yahweh. He struck down of all the people, 50,070 men, and the people mourned because Yahweh had struck the people with a great slaughter. 20 The men of Beth-shemesh said, \"Who is able to stand before Yahweh, this holy God? And to whom shall He go up from us?\" 21 So they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath-jearim, saying, \"The Philistines have brought back the ark of Yahweh; come down and take it up to you.\"\nPsalms 94 - 95 (To be sung.)\n94:1 O Yahweh, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth! 2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth, Render recompense to the proud. 3 How long shall the wicked, O Yahweh, How long shall the wicked exult? 4 They pour forth words, they speak arrogantly; All who do wickedness vaunt themselves. 5 They crush Your people, O Yahweh, And afflict Your heritage. 6 They slay the widow and the stranger And murder the orphans. 7 They have said, \"Yahweh does not see, Nor does the God of Jacob pay heed.\" 8 Pay heed, you senseless among the people; And when will you understand, stupid ones? 9 He who planted the ear, does He not hear? He who formed the eye, does He not see? 10 He who chastens the nations, will He not rebuke, Even He who teaches man knowledge? 11 Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, That they are a mere breath. 12 Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Yahweh, And whom You teach out of Your law; 13 That You may grant him relief from the days of adversity, Until a pit is dug for the wicked. 14 For Yahweh will not abandon His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance. 15 For judgment will again be righteous, And all the upright in heart will follow it. 16 Who will stand up for me against evildoers? Who will take his stand for me against those who do wickedness? 17 If Yahweh had not been my help, My soul would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence. 18 If I should say, \"My foot has slipped,\" Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, will hold me up. 19 When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations delight my soul. 20 Can a throne of destruction be allied with You, One which devises mischief by decree? 21 They band themselves together against the life of the righteous And condemn the innocent to death. 22 But Yahweh has been my stronghold, And my God the rock of my refuge. 23 He has brought back their wickedness upon them And will destroy them in their evil; Yahweh our God will destroy them.\n95:1 O come, let us sing for joy to Yahweh, Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation. 2 Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. 3 For Yahweh is a great God And a great King above all gods, 4 In whose hand are the depths of the earth, The peaks of the mountains are His also. 5 The sea is His, for it was He who made it, And His hands formed the dry land. 6 Come, let us worship and bow down, Let us kneel before Yahweh our Maker. 7 For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you would hear His voice, 8 Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah, As in the day of Massah in the wilderness, 9 \"When your fathers tested Me, They tried Me, though they had seen My work. 10 \"For forty years I loathed that generation, And said they are a people who err in their heart, And they do not know My ways. 11 \"Therefore I swore in My anger, Truly they shall not enter into My rest.\"\nReader 12* Amen. 1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware. 2 You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to the mute idols, however you were led. 3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, \"Yeshua is accursed\"; and no one can say, \"Yeshua is Lord,\" except by the Holy Spirit. 4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. 6 There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. 7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8 For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10 and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills.\nReader 13* Amen. 12 For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Messiah. 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member, but many. 15 If the foot says, \"Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body,\" it is not for this reason any the less a part of the body. 16 And if the ear says, \"Because I am not an eye, I am not a part of the body,\" it is not for this reason any the less a part of the body. 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of smell be? 18 But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired.\nReader 14* Amen. 19 If they were all one member, where would the body be? 20 But now there are many members, but one body. 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, \"I have no need of you\"; or again the head to the feet, \"I have no need of you.\" 22 On the contrary, it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; 23 and those members of the body which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our less presentable members become much more presentable, 24 whereas our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked, 25 so that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. 27 Now you are Messiah's body, and individually members of it. 28 And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues. 29 All are not apostles, are they? All are not prophets, are they? All are not teachers, are they? All are not workers of miracles, are they? 30 All do not have gifts of healings, do they? All do not speak with tongues, do they? All do not interpret, do they? 31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way.",

        "raw_content": "At Air Shop Australia we believe in sustainable renewable energy sources. We acknowledge the fact that as of yet technology hasn\u2019t perfected matters however it is very evident that enormous advances have been made in a short period of time. We encourage people to use these resources at home and set the standard rather than simply rely on Government to do all the work. Every little bit helps. It is to the earths advantage one lump of coal by one lump of coal. Solar seems the first choice.\nSolar energy is that produced by the Sun\u2019s light \u2013 photovoltaic energy \u2013 and its warmth \u2013 solar thermal \u2013 for the generation of electricity or the production of heat. Inexhaustible and renewable, since it comes from the Sun, solar energy is harnessed using panels and mirrors.\nPhotovoltaic solar cells convert sunlight directly into electricity by the so-called photovoltaic effect, by which certain materials are able to absorb photons (light particles) and liberate electrons, generating an electric current. On the other hand, solar thermal collectors use panels or mirrors to absorb and concentrate the Sun\u2019s heat, transferring it to a fluid and conducting it through pipes to use it in buildings and installations, and also for electricity production (solar thermoelectric).\nWhat are the benefits of solar energy?\nSolar energy offers many benefits that make it one of the most promising energy forms. Renewable, non-polluting and available planet-wide, it contributes to sustainable development and job creationwhere it is installed.\nLikewise, the simplicity of this technology makes it ideal for using in rural or difficultly accessed areas isolated from the network. An example is the rural region of Cajamarca in Peru, where ACCIONA has developed several projects to facilitate electrical self-sufficiency for inhabitants. Solar energy is also useful for generating electricity on a large scale and injecting it into the network, especially in regions where the meteorology provides for lots of hours of sun per year.\nSolar capture modules are relatively easy to maintain, which, along with the continuing, sharp reduction in cost of photovoltaic cells, explains the present favorable outlook for solar technology. Solar plants also do not emit polluting gases and are silent.\nAnother advantage of energy borne from the Sun is its ability to generate local wealth, by lessening energy dependence on abroad. While it is certain that solar energy \u2013 like wind \u2013 is intermittent and directly depends on the weather and day-night cycles, rapid advances in electricity storage technologies are reducing this dependency and will lead to the increasing share of solar in the energy system.\nSUMMARY OF THE BENEFITS OF SOLAR ENERGY\nAvoids global warming\nReduces use of fossil fuels\nGenerates local wealth and jobs\nIt is modular and very versatile, adaptable to different situations\nCan be applied alike for large-scale electricity generation and on a small scale in areas isolated from the network\nHow is solar energy obtained?\nThe sun provides energy in two different ways:\nIt provides heat tapped by mirrors that focus sunlight on a receiver that contains a fluid which reaches temperatures up to 1,000 \u00b0 C. The heat transforms the fluid in steam which moves a turbine and finally produces electricity.\nIt provides light that is converted into electricity through photovoltaic solar panels. Photovoltaic panels are formed by groups of cells or solar cells that convert light (photons) into electrical energy (electrons).",

Most cabinetmakers are skilled at building tables all types of furniture shelves desks bookcases and chairs. Assembling all of these items usually involves cutting shaping and putting together wooden parts as well as installing hardware such as hinges and drawer pulls. A final stage may be staining varnishing or painting assembled articles.\nIn addition to a considerable amount of time spent sizing and measuring cabinetmakers must be able to stand for prolonged periods of time and be capable of heavy lifting. Cabinetmakers graduate from a standard or vocational high schools and then learn their trade with on-the-job training. Most serve in apprenticeship programs for at least two years to hone their skills.\nIn recent years the use of computer technology has been on the rise so employers are starting to favor individuals who have experience using computer aided design (CAD). The rise in the use of computer design has meant fewer job opportunities for traditional cabinetmakers with handcrafting skills.\nCabinetmakers are employed by hardware stores furniture and upholstery shops lumber dealers and construction companies but a small proportion are self-employed.

Our mandate is to provide a high yielding investment opportunity that is secured by real estate in a highly professional manner.\nAs you may know, real estate has been a solid and sound investment for centuries and despite recessions, wars and stock market crashes, smart investors have constantly looked to real estate when other investments were under-performing.\nDid you know, that the S & P 500 index delivered a whopping 3.71% return to investors over the past 10 years? That is not an annual rate of return, but rather the total return over the 10 year period.\nHow do you think that compares to investing in real estate? Well let me tell you\u2026. and I hope you\u2019re sitting down! Based on the average house price in Canada, over the same 10 year period, real estate went up 232%.\nIn dollars and cents that means if you invested $10,000 in the index, you would have earned $371. That same $10,000 invested in real estate, would have earned you $23.200. Why is this important? I think these figures might motivate some people to re think their investment strategy, and maybe look at investing in real estate instead of the roller coaster stock market.\nIf you are looking for consistent, monthly income month after month with minimum risk then we need to talk.\nAt Alternative Mortgage Solutions, we will give you the opportunity to be your own banker and we let you choose where you want to invest.

Fueled by a movement among plan sponsors and prescription benefit managers to encourage or require its use, growth in mail service pharmacy began to accelerate in the 1980s and now accounts for nearly 25% of the market in the general population and a much higher percentage of seniors.\nOBJECTIVE: To assess the attitudes of Medicare-eligible Americans toward concerns that have been raised about mail service pharmacy and its mandated use in the prescription benefit plans of public and private insurance programs.\nMETHODS: Existing published literature was reviewed, and interviews were conducted with Medicare-eligible persons aged 65 and older to identify potential areas of concern with mail order pharmacy services. A survey was constructed and mailed to a nationally representative random sample of 6,500 persons between the ages of 65 and 79 in July 2012.\nRESULTS: By the cutoff date, 669 completed surveys had been received, and an additional 221 had been returned as undeliverable, resulting in an overall response rate of 10.7%. Nearly half of respondents listed chain pharmacy as their primary source of prescription medications (47.7%) followed by mail service (34.1%), independent pharmacy (13.1%), and other (5.1%). Responses of seniors residing in rural zip codes compared with those in nonrural zip codes demonstrated significantly higher agreement with several concerns, including lost or stolen medications, receiving the exact medication the physician prescribed, and the effects of exposure to heat, cold, or moisture. Two additional concerns approached statistical significance: the ability to speak with a pharmacist face-to-face and the ability to obtain medications quickly if needed. A total of 533 (83.7%) indicated they would oppose mandated mail order in their current benefit plan if it would cause the local community pharmacy they rely on for immediate medication needs to close. The mean risk of such an eventuality that respondents were willing to accept was 42.2%, indicating they would oppose mandatory mail order if there were greater than about a 4-in-10 chance it would cause the loss of their local pharmacy.\nCONCLUSIONS: Seniors appear to be practical and pragmatic about the sources of their prescription medications. While most see a role for mail service pharmacy, they are also aware of its limitations. Many have needs they believe cannot be adequately met by mail service or have relationships with local pharmacies and pharmacists they believe are important for maintaining their health and well-being. As a result, seniors are relatively risk averse when it comes to the loss of their local community pharmacy, even if they routinely use mail order for most of their medications. Beyond their specific concerns, most seniors oppose any restrictions on their freedom to use the pharmacy of their choice on general principle.",

        "raw_content": "Sidhean Teo is a small to mediums size manufacturing enterprise that is located in the rural region in the West of Ireland. Sidhean Teo was established in the year 2000 as an independent company to take over the fire engine business that had been operating out of there since 1984. They currently are in the business of manufacturing and fabricating fire engines for local authorities. The company also has a large upgrading and repair unit for second hand fire engines. The key processes in Sidhean Teo include sheet metal facilities in terms of CNC punching, Folding, Cutting, MIG and TIG welding, Spot welding etc. and they also carry out sub-contract manufacturing and assembly work in these areas.\nThe objective of this business case is to optimise specifically the following aspects in its business processes:\nImprove quality of information, required for process scheduling by the operations.\nIncrease the level of efficiency and effectiveness.\nReduce the overall lead time to manufacture the produce.\nReduce the overall stock outs.\nTo realise the optimisation it needs to analyse processes in Sidhean Teo and implement improvements. The process does not offer a high level of standardisation as each customer can customise the product and is highly involved throughout the entire product development process. The overall scheduling process and order handling process on the shop floor is driven by the initial schedule. The schedule should contain real time information regarding the materials and the human personnel roles and positions for the manufacturing and assembly of the work on the shop floor. This schedule drives the production execution on the shop floor and after the product is made at the different stages the schedule is updated according to work status etc. The product is then tested and after successful functional and parts testing the customer is involved in the process where changes may need to incur. Again after each of these stages the schedule should be updated and the shop floor activities should be modified as appropriate. Parts and products leave the shop floor after final testing to the customer and materials, labour availability etc. should be updated on the schedule. A summary of this process is shown in the following figure.\nThe key solution features envisaged in the business case at Sidhean Teo are as follows:\nRFID - Radio Frequency tags will be needed to identify the people who are working on the shop floor as well as recording their skill sets etc. Also the different components and jobs will need to be identified and the various location of each part\nSRS - A speech recognition system can be placed in the stores to capture any instructions for the effective real time recording of stock taking and can be used to update the database and stock records. However this may not work with regard to the manufacturing noise.\nMulit-modal services - This will allow the wireless connection to and from the information databases that exist on the shop floor to enable the effective decision making from various locations throughout the plant.",

        "raw_content": "13th century text hides words of Archimedes\nThe pages of a medieval prayer text also contain words of ancient Greek engineer Archimedes. It takes high-tech imaging to read between the lines.\nBy Jia-Rui Chong, Los Angeles Times\nThe book cost $2 million at auction, but large sections are unreadable.\nSome of its 348 pages are torn or missing and others are covered with sprawling purple patches of mildew. Sooty edges and water stains indicate a close escape from a fire.\n\"This manuscript is, by far, the worst of any manuscript I've ever seen,\" said William Noel, curator of manuscripts for the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, where it now resides. \"It's a book that is on its last legs.\"\nEUREKA! The 3rd century BC text of Archimedes appears perpendicular to lines from later writers.\nThe sheepskin parchment originally contained a 10th century Greek text, which was erased by a 13th century scribe who replaced it with prayers. Seven hundred years later, a forger painted gilded pictures of the Evangelists on top of the faded words.\nUnderneath it all, however, is an exceptional treasure \u2013 the oldest surviving copy of works by the ancient Greek mathematician and engineer Archimedes of Syracuse, who lived in the 3rd century BC.\nAbout 80% of the text had been transcribed and translated in the 1910s after it was rediscovered in an Istanbul monastery, but since then much of it became unreadable again because of deterioration.\nFully deciphering its mysteries has had to wait for advanced technologies, some of which had never been applied to ancient manuscripts.\nThe unusual cast of detectives includes not only the imaging specialists who helped photograph the Dead Sea Scrolls, but also a Stanford University physicist who studies trace metals in spinach with a particle accelerator.\nTogether, they have been carrying out one of the most remarkable \"salvage jobs\" in the history of codicology, the study of ancient manuscripts.\nArchimedes, it turns out, is only one secret of the text.\nAmong the mathematicians of antiquity, Archimedes was one of the greatest and most cunning.\nHe was one of the earliest to devise ways to calculate the area beneath curves and was the first to prove that a circle's circumference and diameter are related by the constant pi. He developed the Archimedes Screw to lift water and invented deadly devices, such as the Claw of Archimedes, which was designed to grapple enemy warships.\nArchimedes died in 212 BC, when Syracuse was sacked by the Romans. Legend holds that he was drawing figures in the sand. \"Don't disturb my circles,\" he supposedly told the soldier who killed him.\nNOT EASY READING: Rare books expert Abigail Quandt places part of Archimedes' text into an X-ray machine at Stanford University.\nKnowledge of Archimedes' work is derived from three books.\nCodex A, transcribed around the 9th century, contained seven major treatises in Greek. Codex B, created around the same time, had at least one additional work by Archimedes and survived only in Latin translation.\nCodex C has been an enigma.\nIt was originally copied down in 10th century Constantinople, now known as Istanbul. Three centuries later, the manuscript was in Palestine. By then, it was no longer a precious vestige of ancient learning but an obscure text that could be put to better use as a prayer book.\nA scribe began by unbinding the pages. He washed them with citrus juice or milk and sanded them with a pumice stone. He cut the sheets in half, turned them 90 degrees and stitched the new book down the middle.\nThe scribe wrote prayers over the blank pages. Codex C had become a \"palimpsest\" \u2013 a recycled book.\nThe book eventually was brought back to Constantinople, where it sat until the 1890s, when a Greek scholar wrote down a fragment of erased text that he was able to read.\nThat fragment was brought to the attention of Danish philologist Johan Ludvig Heiberg in 1906, then the foremost authority on Archimedes. Armed with a magnifying glass, he translated everything he could read, publishing his work in 1910.\nThe palimpsest disappeared amid the chaos of World War I, only resurfacing in 1998, when a French family named Guersan offered it for auction at Christie's in New York. An anonymous book collector paid $2 million and deposited it at the Walters Art Museum for conservation.\nMold had attacked much of the manuscript, and four forged paintings of the Evangelists made in the 20th century covered some of its most important pages.\n\"That was our worst nightmare,\" said Abigail Quandt, senior conservator of rare books and manuscripts at the Walters Art Museum.\nRoger L. Easton Jr., a 56-year-old imaging specialist at the Rochester Institute of Technology, had just come off his success revealing hidden text in the Dead Sea Scrolls.\nChristie's had commissioned him to make ultraviolet images of the palimpsest for the auction catalog, and now he offered his help to the museum.\nEaston and his colleagues began their work in 2000. They tinkered with different methods for capturing the image with the ultraviolet light, which makes the parchment glow more whitish.\nThey then merged those images with another set taken under a tungsten light, which enhanced the reddish hue of the Archimedes text. The resulting \"pseudocolor\" image made it easier to distinguish the black prayer book writing from the burnt sienna words of Archimedes.\nUsing this painstaking method, Easton and his team took two years to uncover another 15% of the text.\nThey were stymied in penetrating the rest.\nTwo more years passed before Stanford physicist Uwe Bergmann, 43, read a magazine article about the Archimedes palimpsest that mentioned it had originally been written with iron gall ink.\nOne of Bergmann's projects at Stanford was investigating the process of photosynthesis in plants by using the synchrotron X-rays to image small clusters of manganese atoms in spinach.\n\"Why not find traces of iron in an ancient book?\" he asked.\nBergmann sent an e-mail to the Walters Art Museum, and the museum agreed to a test.\nBergmann set up the palimpsest experiment at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory. Spread over an area the size of a football field, the synchrotron is part of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, a Department of Energy facility set in the foothills of Menlo Park.\nThe synchrotron hurls electrons at near light speed, forcing them to give off X-rays as they veer around bends. That X-ray beam is channeled away into the laboratories.\nBergmann figured the powerful and precise beam could be used to make iron molecules fluoresce, thus allowing him with a sensitive-enough detector to pick up even the faintest traces of ink.\nBergmann first had to determine the exposure time. Too much time and the powerful synchrotron X-ray could damage the parchment. Then, they adjusted the intensity of the beam, which could be so strong that it blinded the detectors that picked up the glow from the iron gall ink.\nAfter two years of refining their technique, Bergmann and his colleagues began the laborious process of imaging the palimpsest this summer.\nEach side of a page, mounted in frame that moved in front of the beam, took 12 hours to record. The machines processed the pages continuously for two weeks.\nBeneath a moldy, torn painting of St. John emerged two layers of writing.\nOn the edge of the first page, they saw a signature dated April 14, 1229: \"By the hand of presbyter Ioannes Myronas.\"\nIt was the name of the priest who had erased Archimedes.\nIn an office near Memorial Church at Stanford, Reviel Netz flicked off the lights. Netz, a slight 38-year-old with dark hair, leaned close to the screen of his laptop.\nBergmann's X-ray work had produced a black-and-white picture of a page from \" The Method of Mechanical Theorems ,\" a text found only in the palimpsest. One phrase \u2013 \"let them be arranged so they balance on point theta\" \u2013 had already been translated by Heiberg, although he had had to guess about the word \"on,\" which was unreadable.\nNetz, a professor of classics, looked at the X-ray image and nodded. He smiled.\nThe actual word was \"around.\"\n\"That's not trivial,\" he said, explaining that the change altered the meaning of Archimedes' calculations involving an object's center of gravity.\nThe X-ray image also revealed a section of \"The Method\" that had been hidden from Heiberg in the fold between pages. It contained part of a discussion on how to calculate the area inside a parabola using a new way of thinking about infinity, Netz said. It appeared to be an early attempt at calculus \u2013 nearly 2,000 years before Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz invented the field.\nThe discoveries may seem small, but they are significant in the understanding of ancient mathematics, Netz said.\nOne passage he studied several years ago involved the innumerable slices and lines that could be made from a triangular prism similar to a wedge of cheese. Netz said the passage, which was unreadable to Heiberg, showed that Archimedes was grappling with the concept of infinity long before other mathematicians.\nFor Netz, a specialist in ancient mathematics and cognitive history, the chance to decipher the palimpsest \"is the fulfillment of an incredible dream,\" he said.\nOne of his biggest breakthroughs involves a quirky part of the palimpsest called the \" Stomachion ,\" which literally means \"Belly-Teaser.\"\nStomachion s were children's games in which 14 geometrical shapes were rearranged to create new shapes. Heiberg translated fragments of the manuscript but paid little attention to it, thinking it was just a game.\nNetz saw a deeper significance. Archimedes asked a more restricted question in his \" Stomachion \": How many different ways could you combine the 14 triangles to make a square?\nNetz believes the fragments address an area of mathematics known as combinatorics that scholars have only recently believed interested the Greeks.\nFor all the high-tech efforts, there are still gaps remaining in the Archimedes text, perhaps 2%, Netz guessed.\nAmong the jumbled fragments are clues that perhaps the deepest secrets are yet to be found.\nA century ago, Heiberg copied down two lines that he couldn't identify. They began: \"The youngest had been abroad for so long that the sisters wouldn't even know who was who.\"\nThe passage was not Archimedes.\nIn 2002, scholars were able to cross-reference the quote. It came from \"Against Timandros,\" written by a 4th century BC Athenian orator named Hyperides.\nAlthough Hyperides is little-known now, contemporaries frequently compared him to Demosthenes, an acknowledged master of oratory.\nNo complete versions exist of \"Against Timandros,\" which Hyperides had written as part of a lawsuit over an inheritance, said Judson Herrman, a classicist at Allegheny College in Pennsylvania.\nFurther study determined there were 20 pages of Hyperides in the palimpsest, including a previously unknown text called \"Against Diondas.\"\nThe palimpsest, it turns out, took parchment from seven texts, including what are believed to be a commentary on Aristotle's \"On the Soul\" and a group of biographies of the saints, plus two still unidentified texts.\nThe works are even more difficult to discern than the Archimedes because the ink is different and the pages more thoroughly scrubbed.\n\"I have been cursing all morning,\" Herrman said of his work on a few lines of Hyperides.\nThe scientists aren't giving up.\nEaston's team recently began experimenting with precisely tuned light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, to illuminate the text. The team also is using angled light to detect the outlines of letters etched in the parchment by the acid in the ink.\n\"We'll probably leave something for future scientists to work on,\" Netz said.",

        "raw_content": "The not-so-diplomatic ambassador\nThe outspoken U.S. envoy to Zimbabwe has exposed political violence and raised pressure on the regime.\nMay 23, 2008|Robyn Dixon | Times Staff Writer\nJOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA \u2014 To Zimbabwe's government, James McGee is the undiplomatic diplomat.\nMcGee, the U.S. ambassador to Zimbabwe for the last six months, has eschewed the tactful, almost invisible role that envoys often take. With foreign journalists largely blocked from covering events in the African nation, McGee and other Western diplomats have adopted an outspoken posture, exposing political violence and ratcheting up international pressure on the regime.\nIn turn, McGee has been savagely scolded in the state media, reprimanded by the government, harassed by police during a fact-finding mission and had a staff member threatened with assault. Zimbabwean officials accuse him of breaking the Vienna Convention on diplomats, interfering in its internal affairs and making politically charged and inflammatory comments.\nNot that the government's adversaries have been immune from McGee's blunt criticisms. As opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai stayed in neighboring South Africa while his supporters back home were being beaten and harassed, McGee said he should be in Zimbabwe despite reports of a plot to assassinate him.\nMcGee, a thrice-decorated Vietnam veteran, traveled with diplomats from Britain, the Netherlands, Japan and Tanzania last week to a suspected torture center in the countryside where government opponents are alleged to have been interrogated and beaten. The previous week he and others visited Avenues Clinic in the capital, Harare, crowded with victims of the regime's violence against opposition activists and supporters.\nMcGee appears to have gotten under President Robert Mugabe's skin as much as his predecessor, Christopher Dell, who so outraged the regime that the pro-government Herald ran a front-page headline, \"Mugabe to Dell: Go to Hell,\" which the envoy later framed. Dell was put under 24-hour surveillance, according to the Herald.\nThe day after McGee's fact-finding mission to the detention facility, during which police blocked his convoy for an hour and threatened to beat a member of his staff, the Herald prominently ran a letter describing the diplomat as a \"political activist for the wrong cause\" sent to \"do Washington's dirty work in Zimbabwe.\"\nSeveral days later, another Herald article said of the ambassador, who is African American: \"Contrary to his delusions, McGee is not fighting for the democratization of Zimbabwe but is just a big player in the Uncle Tom role long conceived by America.\"\nMcGee dismissed the Herald criticisms, saying the paper was \"nothing more than an instrument for vituperative and erroneous information.\"\nHis missions have played an important part in independently confirming the level of political violence after disputed elections in March, as well as intensifying diplomatic pressure on a regime that analysts and diplomats see as determined to cling to power. The ruling party lost control of parliament in the elections and Mugabe faces a runoff with Tsvangirai for the presidency, expected late next month.\nMcGee said there was conclusive \"damning\" evidence that the camp he visited with diplomats was an interrogation center, with small cells where people had been imprisoned overnight or longer. Though the cells were empty during the visit, McGee and his colleagues saw four books in which prisoners' names were logged.\n\"These notebooks contained some pretty damning evidence,\" McGee said in a telephone interview. \"They had the names of the people. They had the interrogation methods used on these people. It said they were undergoing beatings.\n\"There were the names of the people they were looking for to interrogate. They were looking for a village head man. He's in hiding now. The book said, 'We want to find him and interrogate him because he didn't stop his people from voting for the MDC,' \" he said, referring to the opposition Movement for Democratic Change.\nDuring his visit to the Avenues Clinic he met a woman in her 80s who said she had been hit on the head with an ax by ruling party supporters because her grandchildren were associated with the MDC.\n\"The evidence in the hospital was even more damning,\" McGee said. \"We had some horrific pictures of people who were horrendously beaten for political purposes, people who were beaten to within an inch of their life.\n\"This type of political violence just has to stop. It is getting out of control, and until it stops I don't think we need to talk about anything else in this country,\" he said.\nMcGee said that when he presented his credentials to Mugabe in November, the president invited him to travel around the country and see things for himself. \"He said, 'If you find that things are bad, come back and report them to me.' \"\nThe ambassador said his attempts to present the evidence from the fact-finding mission to Mugabe were ignored.\nForeign Minister Simbarashe Mumbengegwi recently told journalists in Harare that McGee was called in and reprimanded for making statements the government said were supportive of the MDC.\n\"This was clear interference in Zimbabwe's domestic affairs and in violation of the protocols governing diplomatic relations between states,\" Mumbengegwi said.\nMcGee said he and other Western diplomats made a point of inviting African envoys to fact-finding missions and similar events. Six Southern African diplomats had attended a function at his home where a 13-minute film on the violence was aired. He said there was no breach of the diplomatic rules.\n\"I and my colleagues in the diplomatic community talk about this often,\" he said. \"How far can we go? We determine it according to the established rules and the Vienna Convention. We will stay within the boundaries of diplomatic behavior.\n\"We don't become involved in internal politics of a government, but that doesn't mean people can be beaten without us trying to figure out what's going on.\"\nNYC's Diplomatic Take on Tickets",

        "raw_content": "Cousins Martinez and Luevano took divergent paths in boxing but still support each other at all times\nOctober 17, 2008|Lance Pugmire | Times Staff Writer\nEight years ago, boxing promoter Bob Arum was convinced he'd landed the sport's next legend when he signed Marshall Martinez.\nMartinez had defeated Miguel Cotto (a future welterweight champion) in an Olympic qualifying fight, and U.S. boxing officials envisioned a gold medal dangling around the neck of the tough, hard-punching kid from Fontana.\nMartinez seemed headed to the Sydney Games. But the fighter nicknamed \"little devil\" had to quit the U.S. team after he wrote checks stolen from another athlete's Olympic training headquarters' mailbox. Instead, he turned pro.\nArum snapped Martinez up for a $50,000 bonus and, as a favor, signed Martinez's cousin, a scrawny La Puente teen named Steven Luevano. \"Luevano was nothing special,\" Arum said. \"We signed him only in order to get Martinez.\"\nAs it turned out, the cousins' careers took divergent paths.\nMartinez's boxing plans came to a stop when he was arrested in 2004 for conspiracy to distribute cocaine and sentenced to a four-year prison term. He's now back in the gym, trying to reassemble his life and career. Meanwhile, Luevano (35-1-1, 15 knockouts) will defend his World Boxing Organization featherweight title against Billy \"The Kid\" Dib on the undercard of the Kelly Pavlik-Bernard Hopkins fight Saturday in Atlantic City, N.J.\nThe cousins chat on the phone frequently and visit each other when possible. Martinez says they're like \"brothers.\" Luevano said he tosses his cousin occasional reminders, \"to stay out of trouble.\n\"If he was going to do something, he was going to do it, and no one could stop him,\" Luevano recalled.\n\"They were always close,\" said Luevano's mother, Dolly, whose sister, Margie Carmona, is Martinez's mom. \"But they're different people.\"\nWhen they were young, they were driven to East Los Angeles by Martinez's mother to train. They shared the same dream to one day fight professionally and become world champions.\nThe shy Luevano for years maintained a disciplined routine: \"Wake up, go to school, carpool to the gym, do his homework, eat, go to bed,\" his mother said. When he was 17 and had a child with his wife, Marina, the pattern didn't change. Boxing would now have to support a family.\nMartinez always lived off-script. As a child, he'd throw rocks at his cousins. In his late teens, he had volatile relationships with girlfriends, he'd hang out with other cousins who were gang members and he'd know where to party.\nAsked to explain the opposing forces that affected the cousins, Arum remains at a loss. \"I'm not a psychiatrist,\" he said. \"Martinez was a bad boy. We just didn't know how bad.\"\nBefore their first pro fight, the southpaw Luevano was becoming the tactician who now routinely out-thinks his opponents with counter-punching and sophisticated defense. \"Wait, wait, wait for an opening,\" his amateur boxing trainer Manuel Montiel Jr. would tell him. \"Make them miss, and make them pay.\"\nMartinez's subtlety was a punch in the nose. The cousins' pro careers began on the same card as 19-year-olds, in an outdoor ring in Bell Gardens. Luevano won by second-round knockout. Martinez was victorious in typical tough-guy manner, overcoming an early broken nose to gain a unanimous decision.\nMartinez frequently strayed into crises. He was shot in the hip at a party, spent three months in jail for a prior crime and became embroiled in disputes with Arum. He fought only eight times, going 7-0-1, including a July 2003 date in Mexico in what would be his last fight. By then, Luevano was 19-0 with nine knockouts.\nThen, in August 2004, Martinez was arrested in a case involving more than five kilograms of cocaine -- with a street value of $750,000. Uicardo Williams Jr., who was a U.S. Olympic silver-medalist boxer in 2000, and a third man were also arrested and convicted.\nAsked why he did it, Martinez said. \"The money . . . you're making $110,000 every three to four days . . . I accepted responsibility, though. Yeah, I did it.\"\nMartinez started prison with a year of hard time in Leavenworth, Kan., where he fought with one prisoner and got caught with a cellphone, violations that sent him into solitary isolation.\n\"When they take your freedom away and you're locked up in a box, it's the worst,\" Martinez said. \"Being there changed me 360 degrees. Before, I was a walking time bomb . . . I realized God put me in there to turn my life around. I thought about all of that, how the people I thought were my friends weren't friends at all. . . .\n\"Going to prison is like dying and being able to see your own funeral. You get to see who brings you flowers.\n\"You know who did? My mom . . . and Steven, he sent me some money. That's who took care of me. I have no more 'friends,' it's just me and my girl, going to the gym every day and then back home.\"\nOne recent morning, at an East L.A. gym adorned with a small sign reading, \"Champions never take the easy way out,\" Martinez started his comeback, slamming his fists into a heavy punching bag.\nPaul and Chris Weitz find a blood bond\nTHEATER REVIEWS : The Curse of 'Blood Brothers' : Cassidy...",

We will also be paying the interest on the bond for as long as he city owns the property.\nIt would be taken off the tax roll.\nIt has been called \u201can eye sore.\u201d I agree that it\u2019s not attractive. However, the city is paying too much for the property; will have to borrow the money to buy it; and continue to pay interest until it sells.\nMaybe there is a better solution.\nThis parcel is 1.17 acres. Earlier this year I sold the adjacent parcel that is a smaller corner lot (43 percent its size) for $55,000. If my algebra is correct, that would make the one the city has optioned worth $127,910 \u2014 not $250,000. I have a vacant 2.76-acre parcel on South Otsego Avenue in the city for sale for $199,000. The city is looking to pay over $250,000 for just 1.17 acres.\nAdditionally, the taxpayers will have to pay interest on the bond for an undetermined amount of time. Each year the city owns it we\u2019ll be paying interest on the note and there is not telling when it will sell and for how much. Plus the city will be losing the more than $3,000 a year it collects on taxes.\nMaybe the city could encourage the owner to make the trailer park more presentable or spend a couple of thousand dollars with some evergreens along North Center.

If you are a correctional healthcare professional (medical and behavioral health), you probably have greater familiarity with the frequency of suicide and know what must be done when somebody becomes suicidal and is placed on suicide watch in your facility.

        "title": "Spotlight: Dead Case In Deadwood by Ann Charles",
        "raw_content": "I had a blast writing this third book in the series, especially after experiencing one of Deadwood's haunted hotels first-hand while participating in the South Dakota Festival of Books. Did I see a ghost while staying in the hotel? No, but the bathroom door kept swinging open in the night. That alone was enough to make me sleep with the covers over my head. Unlike Violet in this series, I'm a big chicken when it comes to ghost-filled rumors.\nInstead of telling you more about the background for this third book in the Deadwood Mystery series, I want to talk about the kind and welcoming people of the Black Hills-the real characters, not the fictitious ones I've created within the pages of this book.\nFrom the start, a goal of mine with this series was to promote one of my favorite spots on earth-the Black Hills. I have always loved visiting the area, and I wanted to give readers a reason to go there, to see the beautiful vistas, to learn more about the colorful history, and to have fun in one of America's marvelous playgrounds.\nWhen we published the first book in the series (Nearly Departed in Deadwood) and started promoting it in the Deadwood-Lead area, I breathed into paper bags for days while waiting to see what kind of response the book would receive from the locals. This was the big test. If the book tanked in the Black Hills, I'd have no local support and I'd have to dress in disguise the next time I visited my mom (who lives there). Worse, I would have let the locals down.\nThen the positive reviews began to pour in. Support began to build. Several wonderful area businesses allowed me to place promotional materials next to their cash registers, on their walls, in their windows. Word began to spread about a new series set in the hills from an author who had spent part of her childhood in the area. Best yet, my mom could still go shopping at the grocery store in Lead without wearing a veil of shame.\nWe released the second book in the series (Optical Delusions in Deadwood) to the public. Again I waited, breath held and fingers crossed. More emails and phone calls came from the locals, full of kind words that made my smile spread from ear to ear. The series was taking flight with the help of many.\nIt was an author's dream come true-my dream.\nNow, as you hold this third book of the series in your hands, here I am again, crossing everything I can cross, waiting. Will the locals like it?\nWill you like it? Will I faint from holding my breath?\nMany of you are back for the third time. I can't thank you enough for your continued support.\nFor those of you who wonder how many more books there are to come in my Deadwood Mystery series, buckle up, we're just getting rolling. It's going to be a wild ride.\nHave fun back in Deadwood!\n\u201cNothing good ever happens at the butt-crack of dawn. No doubt, the headless corpse on the autopsy table in front of me would agree.\u201d\u2013Violet Parker\nReal estate agent, Violet \u201cSpooky\u201d Parker stumbles upon a body-part theft ring at the local funeral parlor and suspects her caustic coworker has a hand in it\u2013or maybe a foot. Can Violet discover what\u2019s in the crates the crooks are sneaking out of the mortuary in the dark of night? Or will she end up in one of them herself \u2026 in pieces?\nTo celebrate, I'm giving away a $50.00 giftcard from Amazon to one lucky reader! All you have to do is:\n2.

        "title": "Battle of Orewin Bridge (1282) | Medieval Battles | Battlefields of Britain",
        "raw_content": "BATTLE OF OREWIN BRIDGE (1282)\nThe outbreak of the Second War of Welsh Independence saw three vast English armies invade the Principality. Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales led an army towards Builth in order to secure Central Wales but was defeated and killed by an English army under Edmund Mortimer at the Battle of Orewin Bridge (1282).\nAt the Treaty of Montgomery (1267), Henry III of England had recognised Llywelyn ap Gruffudd (the Last) as Prince of Wales formally acknowledging his rule over most of northern and central Wales. However Henry III died in 1272 and was succeeded by his son, Edward I, whose relationship with Llywelyn soon broke down. The First War of Welsh Independence (1276-7) saw the English King seize all territory to the east of the River Conwy although Llywelyn was allowed to keep his (now nominal) title of Prince of Wales.\nAn uneasy peace followed but in Spring 1282 Dafydd ap Gruffudd, brother of the Prince, initiated a rebellion against Edward I commencing with an assault on Hawarden Castle. Rejecting English offers to buy him off, Llywelyn supported his brother sparking a national revolt that became the Second War of Welsh Independence. Edward I now resolved to conquer Wales in its entirety and launched a three pronged invasion. His main army penetrated North Wales from Chester whilst Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester invaded from Carmarthen in the South West. Concurrently a third army, under Edmund Mortimer, advanced into central Wales.\nLlywelyn moved towards Builth, a key communication artery through central Wales. His intentions are unclear but it is probable he wished to destroy the Royal castle there and also neutralise the English central army under Edmund Mortimer. This would have the added benefit of forcing the English to divert resources thus relieving the military pressure on Gwynedd. The two forces were in the vicinity of each other by the second week of December 1282 but were separated by the River Irfon with the Marcher Lords seeking to advance to Builth. Accordingly Llywelyn moved his forces into a position to control Orewin Bridge and block their approach.\nThe Battlefield Location\nThe battle was allegedly fought to the south of Cilimery although its precise location is not known. No modern bridge exists there today with the nearest being to the east in the immediate outskirts of Builth. Furthermore the Roman road network in the area, and consequently the medieval routes, are not fully understood although the presence of a Roman fort at Hundred House (on the site of later Colwyn Castle) and at Walton would imply a line of communication that may have continued into the thirteenth century.\nNotwithstanding these issues, the terrain south of Cilimery fits the descriptions of the battle. A hill can be found to the immediate east of Glanirfon whilst the river narrows nearby making it an ideal site for a bridge. This is further supported by alignment of minor roads on both sides of the water and also by the curvature of the river at this point would have suited the defensive line which the Welsh initially adopted. A ford also exists a little way to the west near Comyn Cottage. In short then the terrain is a perfect fit with the (otherwise contradictory) narratives that have been handed down to us and therefore this account of the battle has been crafted accordingly. As always though, the location will remain disputed until confirmed by archaeology.\nThe two forces were of comparable size although the English army was a balanced fighting unit consisting of cavalry, infantry and archers. By contrast the Welsh army consisted almost exclusively of spearmen.\nThe battle was fought on 11 December 1282.\n- Stage 1: Welsh Hold Bridge\nThe Welsh initially deployed directly in front of the bridge to bar the Marcher Lords from crossing. However Mortimer had local expertise within his ranks and was advised of a nearby ford across the river. He sent a portion of his forces, either infantry or archers, to cross by this ford and attack the Welsh on their flank.\n- Stage 2: Welsh Adjust Line\nFaced with the threat on their right flank, the Welsh reformed along a broadly north/south axis. This exposed their left flank to attack by archers on the southern bank of the river.\n- Stage 3: Welsh Retreat\nNow suffering heavy casualties from the combined infantry and arrow attack, the Welsh retreated from the bridge and formed up on an adjacent hilltop leaving the crossing undefended. Mortimer's heavy cavalry was thus able to cross Orewin bridge unopposed.\nThe cavalry of the Marcher Lords, having formed up, now attacked the Welsh who broke and fled.\nDeath of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd\nLlywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales was killed at some point during the Battle of Orewin Bridge but the details of his death are contradictory. The most famous account has him cut down by a lone knight, Stephen de Frankton, whilst separated from his army. The knight allegedly had no idea who his victim was until he discovered the regalia of the Prince of Wales that had been stored in a most private place on Gruffudd's person. Precisely why he would have been apart from his army in this scenario is uncertain - perhaps he had ridden to negotiate with the Marcher Lords some of whom were pledged to support him.\nAn alternative version has Gruffudd lured into a trap set by Mortimer, perhaps whilst negotiating before the battle started, but was instead chased into a wood where he was hunted down and killed. The truth will probably never been known. The Prince's severed heard was sent to Edward at Rhuddlan Castle and was subsequently displayed in London.\nWelsh casualties at the battle have been mooted to have been in the region of 2,000 killed or wounded. However, despite this high death toll, the loss of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd was the most significant outcome. Dafydd ap Gruffudd took his title as Prince of Wales but this individual, who had fought against his brother in the First War of Welsh Independence, failed to appeal to the Welsh nobility. Faced with Edward I's formidable military machine, Wales was conquered and Dafydd was betrayed by \"people of his own tongue\". Dafydd was eventually captured then hung, drawn and quartered in Shrewsbury after which his head was sent to London for display alongside his brother. Edmund Mortimer would prosper in King Edward's service but was later killed in a skirmish near Builth in 1304.\nColyer, R (1984). Roads and Trackways of Wales. Moorland.\nDavies, J (2013).

I don\u2019t know anyone who is more talented.\u201d\nB. \u201cNot today.\u201d\nWhy Do Children Take After School Classes?\nMost children are not child prodigies but, in families that have the financial resources, many children are spending a hefty chunk of time going to music and other classes. A parent might tell you that it\u2019s what the child wants. Sometimes it is but sometimes you\u2019re just not sure where the driving motivation is rooted. (Consider the example of the adult, quoted above, who found performing to be stressful.) My 6 year old twins are just coming out of a year or so of telling me that they \u201cdid not want to learn the piano\u201d. This followed some very low key attempts to learn the piano, with my assistance, when they were 4. So I left them them with an open piano keyboard and two instructions. Please wash your hands and please play the keys lightly.\nSome parents, in this type of situation, would have ignored this feedback and signed up for piano classes two years ago. Not everyone has agreed with this decision to wait and see.\nFor more than a year they\u2019ve been experimenting on the piano. Now that they\u2019re learning more about reading music at their group music class \u2013 based on Kodaly, Orff and Suzuki teaching methods \u2013 and they\u2019re cracking open the simple piano books that I kept from my childhood and making progress.\nI have seen families where large sums of money were put into sports classes or other endeavours. After hearing about how the child is not in the top ranks of that discipline, the classes are stopped. On the flip side, do we have to be highly talented to justify taking a class in piano or gymnastics?\nA Film About a Child Prodigy and His Family\nVitus is a Swiss-German film about the relationship being a talented young pianist and his family members. It was filmed in 2004 and released in 2006. A second theme in the movie is the role that a grandparent plays in how the boy determines what his priorities in life should be.\nHow do the parents react to their child\u2019s talents? How do they support their boy? What are their expectations? How does the child feel about these expectations? How is the boy\u2019s relationship with his grandparent independent of, and unmediated by, his parents? Does this type of relationship happen in society today? Are there adults who have an influence on our children\u2019s lives without our interference?\nThe somewhat lukewarm rating on Rotten Tomatoes matches my own unofficial survey. Vitus is not just about the lot of child prodigies and that\u2019s why it\u2019s a film worth watching. After watching the film you\u2019re left with questions about parenting choices and interactions; how children can pursue their interests; and, relationships between generations. If you subscribe to Canadian Netflixs, the film is currently in their catalogue. If not, perhaps your library system has a copy that you can request or you can rent one somewhere else. Just stay away from summaries online. As always \u2013 they give the plot away completely.\nWhat did you think about this film? You can comment about this posting in the comment section below or on the BCFamily.ca Facebook page. Your contribution matters so don\u2019t be shy!\nAudition tape of the lead actor Teo Gheorghiu, who plays Vitus.

        "raw_content": "By the grace of God all the Beacoms remained steadfast and true to their Catholic faith. Father Jeremiah Trecy, promoter of the first Catholic colony in Nebraska, and his brother John J. Trecy arrived from Dubuque, Iowa June 25, 1885, in search of a location to establish a Catholic Colony. After exploring the country they selected the land where the following spring old St. Johns. Also called St. Patrick\ufffds colony, located on the Missouri River about one mile north of Jackson, Nebraska, was founded by a colony of Irish from Dubuque Iowa.\nOn the second day of June, 1856, the Catholic colony arrived on the town site. The group consisted of eighteen wagons and about sixty persons, some remained in the village, others selected claims in what now is St. Johns, Summit, and Elk Creek.\nFather Trecy reported his mission of St. John\ufffds to Bishop O\ufffdGorman of Dubuque Iowa on August 4, 1859. He wrote \ufffdThe oldest mission in the territory is St. John\ufffds. It was commenced on the 24th of June 1855 with a congregation of eleven souls, the number today is over one hundred fifty souls.\ufffd\nIn 1855 Father Trecy set out with a small group of men to look for a suitable location for the projected colony. They had a team of mules drawing a wagon which was painted \ufffdGoing where no one lives\ufffd. Enroute they stopped at Cascade to rebuild a Catholic church which the no nothings had burned. After deciding on a site for future settlement in Dakota County, Nebraska, territory, they returned to Garryowen to gather colonists for an early start the following spring. John, Father\ufffds brother remained behind to hold claim for the territorial records show that on September 25, 1885, John Trecy was appointed sheriff of Dakota County and that he resigned his office.\nFather Trecy spent much of his time during his colony\ufffds period of adversity in missionary activities to neighboring cities such as Omaha, Sioux City, and among the Indians, going even into Dakota Territory. He also made two trips back to Dubuque, Iowa to report on his colony and to interest people in his work in the west which each time he returned he had more people with him for his new colony.\nSt. John\ufffds consisted of the church, a hotel, and school, fifty dwellings and two mills. In 1858 the government demanded that the settlers at St. Johns prove up their claims. Some of the colonists had taken up several hundred acres of land which was more than they could pay for or even be permitted to retain. Many had borrowed funds to come to Nebraska and though some sold their stock or borrowed money at exorbitant rates, others abandoned their claims. This caused a panic of the people. Some of the colonists seemed to blame father Trecy for their sufferings from blizzards, Indians, and even from the panic. His people became so incensed against him that he had to flee in order to escape the consequences of their indignation. He ended his connection with St. Johns colony January 1860 for when he heard of he was acting chaplain during the Civil War. There had been a scattering of population from St. Johns in 1860, some returning east, others moving to the new town of Jackson, which was incorporated in 1865.\nThomas and Michael Beacom Sr. and their sons Michael and Michael M. Beacom came to Nebraska with Father Trecy\ufffds colony and settled.",

        "raw_content": "Vitamin E deficiency is often associated with symptoms of a peripheral neuropathy. To evaluate whether vitamin E deficiency affects the vitamin E content of the peripheral nervous system, we measured the alpha-tocopherol content in biopsy specimens of sural nerve and adipose tissue from 5 patients with symptomatic vitamin E deficiency (2 with homozygous hypobetalipoproteinemia and 3 with familial isolated vitamin E deficiency) and 34 control patients with neurologic diseases without vitamin E deficiency.\nA significant reduction in tissue tocopherol content was present in the vitamin E-deficient patients, as compared with the controls, both in sural nerves (1.8 +/- 1.2 vs. 20 +/- 16 ng per microgram of cholesterol [P less than 0.001], or 7.7 +/- 5.4 vs. 64 +/- 44 ng per milligram of wet weight [P less than 0.01]) and in adipose tissue (46 +/- 43 vs. 222 +/- 111 ng per milligram of triglyceride [P less than 0.001]).\nLevels of tocopherol in adipose tissue were significantly correlated (P less than 0.001) with levels in peripheral nerves. The low tocopherol content of the nerves preceded histologic degeneration in three vitamin E-deficient patients, suggesting that the nerve injury resulted from the low nerve tocopherol content.",

        "raw_content": "Beatty History\nMontillus ( Old Man ) Beatty purchased the Lander Ranch in the Spring of 1896. He was one of the three white men in the Oasis Valley. He settled here with his Piute wife to farm and raise his family. Being an old miner, he always opened his home to anyone who would pass through on their way to the mines in Death Valley .\nIn August of 1904 Shorty Harris and Ed Cross found gold in a rock and the Bullfrog Mining District was born.\nRobert Montgomery had found several mines in the Panamints, so when he heard of the Harris/Cross find, he hired a Shoshone Indian to help him locate a claim in the new mining area. The Montgomery Shoshone was found and thus began one of the biggest and shortest lived gold rushes in the Death Valley Area.\nBob Montgomery purchased a large area of the Beatty Ranch to plat a town site. The town of Bullfrog was in place, but they had no water. With Bob Montgomery's town, the miners and businessmen would have plenty of water, which made this town much more appealing.\nBob Montgomery named his town site Beatty, in honor of Montillus Beatty. Mr. Beatty was the first Postmaster and seemed to thrive on all the activity happening on his old ranch.\nThree months after the start of Beatty, the Bush Brothers platted the town of Rhyolite. Although Beatty never reached a population much over 650, it was destined to become the supply center for all the other mining towns in the Bullfrog Mining District.\nBy 1906, railroads had made it to Beatty. With an Ice House, several Hotels, Saloons, a Newspaper, Fresh Produce, Meat Markets and General Mercantile, Beatty had everything that anyone could want, including plenty of water.\nIn March of 1907, one of the most important real estate transactions occurred. Robert Montgomery sold the town site of Beatty to Dr. W.S. Phillips of Chicago and E.S. Hoyt of Tonopah for $100,000.00. Wanting to promote their new town , they backed Railroad Days, and it was said to be one of the biggest seen in Nevada. A train from Los Angeles, California carried many investors and party goers' free of charge to the town of Beatty, where they were treated to fresh fruits, seafood and champagne as they disembarked from the train. Beatty wined and dined their new investors. Hoyt and Phillips promoted Beatty in newspapers throughout the world. Looking towards England for funding some of the ads were not what they seemed. They had pictures of paddle boats loaded with oar on its way to Goldfield, Nevada to be processed on the Amargosa River. Although it was later found that Dr. Phillips had started one of the largest scams of the time, it gave Beatty the jump start it needed. With no town manager or city government to promote their town and the mining interests, they elected their own and kept Beatty alive.\nWith new roads being built between Beatty and outlying towns, it was becoming the center of travel as early as 1906. With passenger trains, stage coaches and automobile stages, you could go just about anywhere from one convenient location. As the gold ran out, towns started collapsing, and by 1914 Beatty had become the largest town in the Bullfrog Mining District. Beatty remained a railroad hub until 1940 when the railroad was placed into maintenance. By 1942, the tracks were pulled up by the Department of War Office for use in World War II. Beatty now had to depend on the automobile traffic and newly developed Highways from Reno to Las Vegas. Although still a mining town, Beatty would start catering more and more to tourism. Known as \" The Gateway To Death Valley\" since 1933 when Death Valley was declared a National Monument by President Herbert Hoover. Beatty has embraced tourism by expanding economic opportunities to provide restaurants, motels and information to the area's historic sites.\nWith the conception of the Nevada Test Site and the development of the Atomic Bomb, Beatty took on a new task. Many of the young men growing up in Beatty started working at the test site, which is still one of the employers of many Beatty residents today. From Mining to Railroads, Atomic Bombs and Nuclear Arms Testing to Tourism, Beatty has had many faces since October of 1904. Still a thriving community of 1,000 residents, Beatty offers diverse opportunities to visitors and residents alike.\nSitting on the eastern border of Death Valley National Park, Beatty lives on with simple pleasures, mining heritage, and pride. Welcome to the history of Beatty, where most of the buildings on Main Street are the same ones that have been here since the beginning, and like Beatty itself have been through many changes over the years, but are still standing strong. Come for a visit and step back into time.",

        "raw_content": "How to Create a Career Portfolio\nby Editor | Sep 28, 2013 | Career Development, Lifelong Learning | 0 comments\nWhen looking for a new job, a career portfolio is a very helpful tool to have at your disposal. It can be hard to fit everything into your resume that you want potential future employers to know about you. A career portfolio can showcase all of your skills and experience to help you get anything from a promotion to a temporary job From A Staffing Solutions Agency.\nRound Up Your Qualifications\nRemember that community college course you took a few years ago about computer applications? How about that class with the HR consultancy agency that your company makes you take every year? Put any certificates or documents that highlight your qualifications into your portfolio. Don\u2019t forget unofficial sources, either. If you\u2019re looking for a job as a nanny, feel free to put in that chore chart that you\u2019ve been using for years with your own children. If you\u2019re looking for a job in the automotive industry, put in some before and after pictures of cars that you\u2019ve worked on.\nYes, your portfolio needs to be professional, but this doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t add a little bit of personality into it. Just make sure it is appropriate for the job you\u2019re applying for. If you have a passion for cooking but are applying for an animal care job, bake some homemade treats for your pets and put a piece of writing you\u2019ve done about the pros and cons of feeding pet foods made from scratch.\nMatch the Job Description\nTry to match your portfolio to the job description of the job you\u2019re applying for. If being a team player is a very important part of the job, make sure most of your pages have more \u201cwe\u2019s\u201d than \u201cI\u2019s\u201d. If organization is mentioned as one of the most important qualities to have for that child care job, put more pictures of charts and less of children finger painting. Find what skills you need to have for the job you are applying for, then make sure you have a couple of examples for each skill in your portfolio.\nHave you ever passed on buying a book or video game after only looking at the cover? You probably didn\u2019t even bother to read the description. Employers are the same way. One misspelled word can ruin your chances of getting a job. Even using the wrong color scheme or text can hurt you. If you\u2019re applying for a business job, don\u2019t try to stand out by using \u201cfun\u201d fonts or a bright pink binder. Instead, keep everything neutral with blues and grays. Also, make everything easy to understand by grouping portfolio items together by category.\nEmployers understand that interviews can be nerve-wracking, so they love portfolios. Is there really any better way to judge a job applicant than looking at previous work? Even if you aren\u2019t job hunting right now, having a portfolio is a great way to prepare for the future.\nBonus Tips: 7 Things Employers Don\u2019t Tell Applicants at Interviews",

        "raw_content": "Home >> Swami Ji\nBooks by Swmai ji\nIn the melee of centenary celebrations these days, one great mind who has attracted little attention is that of Swami Sahajanand. The transformational character of his career and his commitment to the cause of the peasants saw him at loggerheads with many of the frontline nationalist leaders. Nevertheless, he emerges as one of the most outstanding peasant leader the country has ever seen. He represents one of the most important stream of struggle among the several struggles which saw India acquire its independence. The contemporaneity of his career acquires an added meaning as the issues for which he struggled still beleaguers most part of the countryside, which is especially true for a state like Bihar.\nBorn in 1889 in the Ghazipur District of Eastern U.P. he became a renouncer at a very early stage of his life. It was the religious life of meditation and study which engaged him until 1914 after which he became a social activist, initially involving himself with the status struggle of Bhmihars. By the early twenties, Sahajanand\u0092s interests shifted to Gandhian politics of the freedom movement, and then in the late twenties and early thirties to the politics of peasant activism. In these transitions he was not only entering new arenas of activism, but in that very process engaging in ideological and political conflict with his former allies. For example, the leading figures in the Bhumihar-Brahman, Mahasabha with whom Sahajanand was associated in the teens and twenties, were also among the largest land controllers of Bihar and hence his most vigorous antagonists in his peasant activism phase. And by the same token, his admiration for Gandhi shifted in the middle and late thirties to sharp opposition over the issue of peasant rights within the context of the struggle for political freedom from the British.\nBefore attempting any hasty slotting of his personality on the basis of his association with any one cause, it should be borne in mind that he was an activist constantly on the leading edge of social, cultural, and political change which for him had to be transformational in character. He himself writes in \u0091Mera Jeevan Sangharsh\u0092, I am gradually moving ahead .. I have learnt from my experiences. And this much I can say that I have always moved ahead . This process is an ongoing one.\nSwami ji and kisan sabha\nOn the basis of experiences gathered from his social activism, Sahajanand formed the West Patna Kisan Sabha in 1928. His struggle against the brazen exploitation of the peasants by the zamindars and the economic backwardness in the countryside created the platform for the Bihar Pradesh Kisan Sabha. As the scope of the struggle widened, it moved through the stages of struggle on economic issues like rent and forced labour to soon cover the much broader issue of the abolition of Zamindari system. The struggle in the area of politics strengthened the organisation and there was a time when in Bihar alone there were more than two lakh members of Kisan Sabha. The strength in which the peasants demonstrated in front of the Bihar Assembly in 1936 still remains unparalleled.\nSwami ji on present problem\nThe novelty of Swamiji's career lies in his ability to be always sensitive to his surrounding and transform his ideas and activities in the interest of justice and equity. Hence, given his background in representing the interests of peasant tenants in the early and middle 1930s, it is not surprising to find him arguing the case for agricultural labourers and the rural poor on the margins of the Indian social experience. In his tract 'Khet Mazdoor' he asks, \"But who cares for the poor?\" In the essays of this tract he vividly describes their condition and their history and submits proposals for change that in many respects have as much relevance today as they did in 1941, when it was written.\nRelevance of Swami ji in the present\nIn his political life he came across politicians of all shades and the affinity and difference which he developed with them on the twin issues of freedom struggle and peasant movement made him more sensitised and multidimensional. He was one of the few members of AICC who opposed the demand for Pakistan. He also opposed the undemocratic manner in which the Constituent Assembly was convened. He remained committed to the idea of an exploitation free socialist India both before and after the independence. His career exemplifies the broad spectrum of Indian experience from the religious and cultural to the social and political activism. There are some direct lessons to be drawn from the life and career of Swami Sahajanand which are very relevant for us today. First, how a meaningful political struggle can be combined successfully with social and economic struggle and, secondly, what should be the nature and form of peasant organisation and struggle in the changing context of rural society. In 1944, in the 8th session of All India Kisan Sabha held at Vijayawada, Swamiji in his presidential speech said, \u0093The middle and big peasantry are trying to use Kisan Sabha for their own benefit, whereas I want to use it for arousing consciousness among the least privileged class of peasants. In my opinion it is the landless peasants and agricultural labourer who are the real Kisan Sabha. It is they who will form the backbone of this struggle in the years to come.\u0094\nSuch was the personality of Swamiji, he was a fighter to the core and remained uncompromising on the issues concerning the rights of the peasants. There are few in Indian history who can measure his height and he remains one of the most relevant personality for the present society, as much of the countryside is still under the severe clutches of exploitation.",

In this study, our aim was to predict the therapeutic effects of adoptive T-cell therapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. To do this, we evaluated whole blood cytokine levels and peripheral regulatory T cells (Tregs) in 46 patients with unresectable or recurrent pancreatic cancer who received adoptive T-cell therapy at 2-week intervals. To test immune function, venous blood was obtained from patients before the start of therapy and 2 weeks after the 4th treatment. Whole blood interferon (IFN)-\u03b1 levels (after stimulation with the Sendai virus) were evaluated, as well as the levels of 9 cytokines stimulated with phytohemagglutinin [interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, IL-12(p70), IL-13, tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1, IFN-\u03b3, and granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor]. Peripheral Tregs were analyzed by flow cytometry. Using the obtained data, we then observed the relationship between these immunological parameters and clinical outcome of patients. We found that the whole blood production of IFN-\u03b3, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 significantly increased after adoptive T-cell therapy, whereas the number of peripheral Tregs did not change. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses indicated that the number of peripheral Tregs before receiving adoptive T-cell therapy and the change in IFN-\u03b3 levels after adoptive T-cell therapy were independent variables predicting overall survival. The findings of this study indicate that the assay of whole blood IFN-\u03b3 production offers promise for evaluating the clinical response of patients to cancer immunotherapy.\nCopyright \u00a9 2013 UICC.\nKEYWORDS: adoptive T-cell therapy, immunomonitoring, pancreatic cancer, whole blood IFN-\u03b3 production",

Compound 3k exhibited the most potent growth inhibition against melanoma MDA-MB-435 cells (GI(50)=850 nM), against leukemia SR cancer cells (GI(50)=1.45 \u03bcM), and OVCAR-3 (GI(50)=1.26 \u03bcM) ovarian cancer cell lines. The structurally related compound 3s had a GI(50) value of 1.77 \u03bcM against MDA-MB-435 cells. The N-naphthoyl analogue 3t had GI(50) values of 1.30 and 1.91 \u03bcM against HOP-92 non-small cell lung cancer and MDA-MB-435 melanoma cell lines, respectively. The related analogue 3w had GI(50) values of 1.09 \u03bcM against HOP-92 non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Interestingly, docking of the two active molecules 3k and 3w into the active site of COX-2 indicates that these compounds are COX-2 ligands with strong hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions. Thus, compounds 3k, 3t, 3s, and 3w constitute a new class of anticancer/anti-inflammatory agents that may have unique potential for cancer therapy. Copyright \u00a9 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",

        "title": "Attack Zero -- Information Security Blog: My Thoughts On \"The Basic Principles Of Security and Why They Matter\"",
        "raw_content": "To many users, security begins and ends with anti-virus and malware protection and regular software updates. But there is much more to security, and the more you understand the reasoning behind it, the more you can make intelligent choices when applying system security measures.\nThis is certainly true, but I believe that we are not at a point where the majority of users are taking the measures described above. With all of the data breaches over the past year, I believe that security is on the minds of people who did not think about it before. I think that awareness is a powerful tool in keeping a network secure. Sometimes there is a stigma associated with reporting security problems. The assumption is that you must have been doing something wrong in order to find the bug or vulnerability that you raise. If you can incentivize bug discovery and reporting and encourage users to report things they see that are anomalous, you will have a force multiplier for your security staff. Pretend you have a company of 100 people, and five take care of security. If you encourage the 95 people who do not work security to report things like phishing attempts, strange behavior on their computer, or perhaps strange programs running, those 95 people could act like intrusion detection systems for your network.\nOf course there are going to be false positives and false negatives, but as with any IDS, you have to teach it what to look for. If they understand why they are looking out, they will help the company and themselves because they can use those skills in their daily lives. This is important when many people bring their personally owned devices into work, potentially exposing the work network to new threats.\nWhen people make general statements about Linux being more secure than Windows, know it or not, they are generally referring to architectural security. As a descendant of Unix, unlike Windows, Linux was designed from its earliest days as a multi-user system, which historically has meant that it is better adapted than Windows to modern computing.\nThat doesn\u2019t mean, however, that all Linux installations are more secure than all Windows ones. As the shipping condition of many phones and tablets shows, it is all too easy for a Linux or Android system to be configured so that it is essentially wide open. Instead, what it means is that Linux has been easier to secure than Windows because, when you harden the system, you are working with it rather than against it, and with core parts of the system rather than add-ons.\nWith respect to \"people\" making general statements like \"Linux is more secure than Windows,\" I do not think everything is about architectural security in this context. I believe that part of it is those people's perceptions about threats and exposure to attack. I often hear people saying OS X is more secure than Windows \"because it does not get viruses.\" Of course, that is a fallacy, but the perception comes from the fact that there is a smaller set of malware that targets Linux and OS X. Since OS X and Linux make up a relatively small portion of the number of OSs running on personal computers, the amount of malware written to target them is going to be smaller. If you are an APT, and most of your targets run Windows, then you are more likely to focus on writing malware targeting Windows systems than anything else. This leads people to be more lax about the software they install on their Mac or Linux machine and their security posture in general because they believe that security through obscurity will protect them.\nHowever, malware is not the only threat. A browser can cause plenty of damage if the user is the victim of spearphishing or something similar. If you are using a Mac or a Linux machine, and you type your credentials into a site that looks like your bank, but is not really your bank, the OS you use does not matter. Operational security (OPSEC) is an important part of any security program. OPSEC is about protecting the interactions you have with a system and the way your protect yourself and the information on the system. It is why you do not write your password on stickies or make the answers to your security questions easily guessable from your Facebook page.\nAs Dan Razzell of Starfish Systems explained to me some years ago, making a system architecturally secure requires a clear understanding of its purpose. According to the Center of Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security (CERIAS) at Purdue University, an architecturally secure system should\ninclude the bare minimum needed for a specific purpose.\nprotect data both when it is being used and not being used.\nprotect the confidentiality and integrity of data in use.\ndisable all unnecessary resources.\nlimit and record access to all resources in use.\nMaking a system architecturally secure also requires a clear understanding of the environment it will be operating in. This might be rolled up into its purpose, but not always. The requirements for securing a system in the datacenter that serves web pages is different than your personal computer at home that might also serve webpages (or a Minecraft server or whatever else). For example, the system in the datacenter is going to have a different set of controls for physical access. You might employ two-person integrity in the datacenter, while it is unlikely that you will have two person integrity in your house.\nThe application of these goals comes down to a handful of working principles. These principles are generally not summarized, and security experts have different names for them, but in my experience, most would agree on at least four:\nLeast Astonishment: Design should follow user\u2019s expectations so they know what they are doing and where to find features. For example, Bash Shell commands generally use the -r option to make them recursive, and -v to make reporting verbose, while desktop applications generally start with the File menu on the left and the Help menu on the right. Least astonishment is really just common sense, since if a feature cannot be found, it cannot be used.\nContainment of Failure: Should a system or program fail, or be compromised by an attack, the damage should be contained so that it does not crash the system or compromise the rest of the system. This is the main principle behind user accounts with limited access to the system. Because a user account cannot control core system resources and configuration files, gaining access to the account does not give an intruder control of the system.\nDefense in Depth: An architecturally secure system does not depend on a single feature for protection. Should one feature fail to protect the system, another may instead. The concept of defense in depth explains why reactive security is not enough by itself: anti-virus software, for example, can only respond to what it knows about, and an outdated set of virus definitions can make it useless. However, in a system with limited user accounts and carefully selected permissions, other features may stop what the anti-virus software fails to detect.\nLeast Privilege / Least Access: Any software, hardware, or user should be allowed only to use absolutely necessary system resources \u2014 and no more. The least access, the less chance of providing an unexpected entrance for intrusions. This principle is the most widely acknowledged among experts, and applies almost everywhere. A relevant modern example is the use of encryption so that data stored in cloud storage can only be read by the owner, and not the company providing the storage.\nThese are great features to think about whenever you design a network. I think these should be extended to an entire network, not just individual systems. I would add sandboxing and virtual machines to the idea of containment of failure. If something happens in a VM, and you have the ability to detect that quickly, you could throw the VM out and restore it from a snapshot or template. Sometimes, you want to induce a system to be compromised, such as when you want to examine malware in a safe environment. By isolating the test environment, you can mitigate damage to infrastructure and machines outside of the environment.\nDefense in depth is not something that is implemented only in software and hardware. A good defense in depth strategy includes a clear, concise security policy and security-conscious users.\nThere is also another widely recognized principle, Security Through Obscurity, which is sometimes practiced by corporations, but always denounced by security experts as ultimately ineffective. When Security Through Obscurity is applied, known bugs are kept secret so that they cannot be used by intruders. The trouble with this idea is that intruders are likely to find the bugs anyway, but no-one else will know if they do \u2014 a major consideration, since companies like Microsoft and Apple have been known to take months to patch a bug. Partly, the distrust of this principle depends on how the software is developed, because, in free and open source software, making a bug known often means that it will be patched faster.\nI wanted to make one note about this paragraph. I agree that security through obscurity is ultimately ineffective. However, I get the sense that the author is implying that Microsoft and Apple take months to patch bugs because they have better things to do. I do not think it is necessarily like that. Patches and changes to software require validation and testing. This cannot be done overnight. Open source is not a magic cure-all. While I appreciate that open source allows many eyes to look at code and vet it, someone actually has to undertake that effort. Also, sometimes, bugs are hard to find and go unnoticed (like Heartbleed). This is a problem with closed source software as well. I think all coding projects, regardless of the openness of their source, need to be designed with security in mind. While this is much easier said than done, this should be a goal.\nYet, despite the frequent complaints about the unrealistic demands of security, today the problem is just as likely to be the insistence on convenience. With the rise of desktop Linux and the popularity of Android, the pressure to be as easy to use as Windows is almost irresistible. As a result, there is no question that the average distribution is less secure than those of a decade ago. That is the price we pay for automounting external devices and giving new users automatic access to printers and scanners \u2014 and will continue to pay.\nHowever, if you understand security\u2019s goals and principles, then maybe you will be better motivated to consider the requirements of security as much as the wishes of convenience. It is perfectly possible to find a balance between security and convenience \u2014 but pinpointing the balance is more effort than most of us are used to making.\nI do not know if the average distribution is \"less secure\" than a decade ago. The security threats a decade ago are much different now. Systems are more complex, and that complexity often yields a larger attack surface for someone intent on compromising the security of a system. Also, the amount of data passing through computer systems now is much greater than it was ten years ago which makes those systems into juicier targets. Also, computing power has increased greatly in the past ten years which has allowed things like password cracking to go much faster. The Pentium 4s and AMD Athlons of ten years ago have been shadowed by their much newer variants in terms of speed and efficiency, not to mention the advancement in GPU-based computing. Also, security in software has come a long way. Containers in Linux have been developed in the past ten years (LXC has been around since 2008), and they have helped isolate processes from each other in Linux systems. In the Windows world, consider that NTLM and LM password hashes were the default up until Windows Vista (which came out in late 2006 / early 2007).\nI think it is silly to imply that the attempt to emulate Windows has made Linux less secure. Windows has been taking cues from the Linux world in terms of security with more recent versions of Windows. UAC is an example of this. UAC is vaguely similar to sudo on Linux machines. Just as UAC is not secure if users are conditioned to press \"Yes\" whenever the UAC prompt pops up, the use of sudo is insecure if the user blindly types a command with sudo without understanding what that command does. I think that both platforms are trying to keep up with the latest threats, but that is a tough challenge because the threats are constantly evolving.\nIn addition to the operating system, third-party software plays a big role in overall system security. Sometimes the goal is not to compromise the security of the operating system or getting root or admin. It can be enough to establish a backdoor on a system as a user depending on what the attacker's goals are. If the user has all of the information or access that an attacker needs, there might not be a need to go after the OS if the attacker can get a user to click a link or visit a tainted website.\nI agree that understanding security's goals and principles is definitely important. I think it is critical for users to understand why security should matter to them. If security hits home, the user will be more likely to be curious about it and seek out ways to be more secure. I believe that with all of the breaches that have happened over the past few years, security is just beginning to be a topic of conversation for people who previously did not give it a thought.\nSpeaking of thoughts, what are yours? Share them in the comments. This is a thought provoking article, and I really liked it, so I thought you might as well.",

        "raw_content": "TG Daily writes:\nWould We Have Drugged Up Einstein? How Anti-Authoritarianism Is Deemed a Mental Health Problem In my career as a psychologist, I have talked with hundreds of people previously diagnosed by other professionals with oppositional defiant disorder, attention deficit hyperactive disorder, anxiety disorder and other psychiatric illnesses, and I am struck by 1) how many of those diagnosed are essentially anti-authoritarians; and 2) how those professionals who have diagnosed them are not. Anti-authoritarians question whether an authority is a legitimate one before taking that authority seriously. Evaluating the legitimacy of authorities includes assessing whether or not authorities actually know what they are talking about, are honest, and care about those people who are respecting their authority.\nEinstein was not an anti-authoritarian. He never got kicked out of school or fired from a job for disrespecting authority. He followed all the rules to get his doctoral degree and various professorships.\nHis theories rarely challenged conventional wisdom. His famous 1905 papers were directly in support of the leading theorists of the day, Lorentz, Poincare, and Planck. In later life he refused to accept the new theories of quantum mechanics, when younger physicists were challenging authority. But attacking authority? Not Einstein. He was even an apologist for the authoritarian government of the USSR.",

        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s guest writer is Patrick Hearn, a tech writer for XFINITY Home based out of Atlanta, Georgia. When he\u2019s not writing, he loves running around with his mom\u2019s two jack-rat terriers outside of the city.\nVideo cameras help you keep a digital eye on what\u2019s going on in your home, and that includes those precious family members inside of it \u2014 your pets. Even the most well-trained dog likes to get into mischief at times, and a video camera with two-way audio will let you give a quick command to your pet who (probably) thinks no one is watching. But that isn\u2019t the only way a video camera can help you care for your beloved animals. Take a look at some off the bonus ways to benefit from this technology for your furry friends.\nKeep an eye on a pregnant pet.\nWhen my dog Mew Mew was first pregnant, no one knew what to expect. She\u2019s barely over a foot tall and weighs less than 30 pounds. She was a small dog \u2026 with a big belly. And when she finally gave birth, I understood why: Five squirming, well-fed puppies had been living in there for the past two months.\nThose were the days before streaming video cameras were readily available, but I would have given anything to be able to keep an eye on her while at school. Today, pet owners are using their live feeds to monitor their four-legged friends when babies are on the way. It\u2019s not quite \u201cWhat to Expect When Your Pet is Expecting to Expect,\u201d but it\u2019s close.\nCheck in on your pet sitters or dog walkers.\nWhen I leave home for an extended length of time, I have someone check in on things. You probably do too; in some cases, you might even have a dedicated pet sitter staying at your home to keep an eye on your dogs. A video camera can help you check in on what your animals and the sitter are up to. It can also allow you to check that your dog walker completed his or her duty for the day.\nKeep in mind that you are legally allowed to record video in the common areas of your home, but if the pet sitter has a bedroom, you cannot record them there. A video camera can be placed anywhere except in areas where there is a \u201creasonable expectation of privacy.\u201d\nEase the adjustment for new pets.\nBringing a new pet into your home can be a strenuous process. Not only is the new pet still getting acquainted with you, but any existing pets you might have could feel like their territory is being threatened. Even if you aren\u2019t present to stop an altercation between your pets, you can keep an eye on their behavior.\nA new pet can damage furniture, make a mess on the floor, and start a host of other potentially destructive problems. A camera won\u2019t stop the pet from causing damage, but at least you\u2019ll know what to expect when you get home, or try to get home early to head it off. After a friend got a new puppy, he set up a camera so he could see its kennel while at work. He would use the two-way audio to speak to and soothe the puppy when it became restless.\nMonitor your pet\u2019s environment.\nWhile video cameras are traditionally used to safeguard your possessions and protect against theft, some cameras carry additional features like temperature and humidity sensors. No one wants to think about house fires or other disasters, but it\u2019s important to be aware. If your camera is equipped with temperature sensors, you may be notified before your alarm even goes off.\nTemperature sensors can also help you keep an eye on the environment your pet lives in. If the temperature in your home starts to rise during the day, it can indicate a broken air conditioning unit or window. Getting notifications like these allow you to find a solution before it becomes too serious. If you have a smart home hub where you can control your security cameras and thermostat all via one app, keeping your pet comfortable is easy and convenient.\nKeep track of your pet\u2019s adventures.\nSome video cameras do more than just stream\u2014some attach to your pet\u2019s collar. If you have a lot of land and let your dog run free, you can check the footage to get a firsthand look at the day-to-day life of your dog. These cameras also come equipped with GPS sensors. In other words, if your pooch goes missing, you can see exactly where he is.\nThe downside to this type of camera is the battery life. It needs to be charged regularly, and most of these cameras have a limited battery life.\nWhether you have a full home security system linked to your smart home devices, or a simple streaming video camera, you can find benefits for your precious pets at home.\nPatrick Hearn is a tech writer for XFINITY Home based out of Atlanta, Georgia.

        "title": "Out-of-State Car Insurance: Everything You Need to Know",
        "raw_content": "Out-of-State Car Insurance: Everything You Need to Know\nOne of our goals at Esurance is to help demystify the often-complicated world of insurance. But, some topics are trickier (and generate more questions) than others.\nThat\u2019s okay, though, because at Esurance we have experts. Lots of \u2018em.\nSo when our out-of-state insurance post received a lot of questions, Nicole D., one of our many experts, provided answers to some of the most common inquiries.\n(Please note: these are general guidelines. Regulations vary widely across the country, so you should always confirm your local insurance requirements with your state.)\nOut-of-state car insurance: frequently asked questions\nI bought a car for my brother who lives in another state. It\u2019s registered in his state but insured in mine. The DMV didn\u2019t have a problem with this \u2014 is it an issue?\nIt might become one. Some form of insurance is generally required in order to register your car, and while some states may allow you to register without immediate proof of in-state insurance, you\u2019ll usually be expected to provide it within a specified time.\nAlso, most insurers require that your insurance policy be issued in the state where your car is located, and your policy status may be affected if your insurer finds that the vehicle is garaged in another state.\nSo, if your brother\u2019s state doesn\u2019t receive regular documentation of coverage for the car, he could eventually face fines or suspension from his state\u2019s DMV.\nI\u2019m in the military and am currently stationed in one state, but my home of record is in another state. Can I insure my policy with my home address? Or do I use the address of where I\u2019m stationed?\nTypically, military personnel are allowed to have a declared state of residence. With Esurance, active-duty military can have a policy set up in any state they want \u2014 regardless of where they\u2019re currently stationed.\nBut, keep in mind that the state where the vehicle is registered may want the insurance to be specific for that state.\nI\u2019m currently in college out of state, but my truck is still registered at my parent\u2019s address. Can I keep my home-state insurance?\nMost states require your car to be insured in the state where it\u2019s registered, and registrations typically need to match the driver\u2019s current address. But, it\u2019s worth checking with your insurer to see if they have special options for students attending school out of state.\nAt Esurance, if a student starts out listed on a policy and will be temporarily attending school at another address, we allow them to remain on the original policy as long as their vehicle is still registered at the original address.\nI\u2019m temporarily working in another state (for a year or less). My car is still registered in my home state, but I have insurance in the state where I\u2019m working. Is that a problem?\nEven if you eventually plan to return to your home state, you\u2019re usually considered a resident of your current state if you\u2019re gainfully employed, renting or buying a home or apartment, and/or living there for more than a few months.\nDepending on the state, you must register your vehicle within a certain period of time (anywhere from immediately to 90 days) after establishing residency. Some states, such as New York, also require you to be insured in that state before registering.\nBecause regulations vary from state to state, you should check with the DMV\u2019s requirements wherever you\u2019re working.\nMy daughter is moving to a new state soon. She\u2019s currently on my insurance. How do we update her car\u2019s title, registration, and insurance in her new state if I\u2019m the primary owner of the car?\nIf the vehicle is currently registered to you, there are a few different ways this may work out.\nSince you\u2019re the title holder, the new state may allow the vehicle to remain registered solely to you, even though you don\u2019t reside in that state. In this case, you\u2019d likely be considered the primary driver on her insurance and she\u2019d be a listed driver.\nThe new state may allow the vehicle registration to be transferred via gift or sale so your daughter becomes the sole registered owner. In this scenario, your daughter could buy her own insurance and act as the policyholder.\nThe new state may allow the vehicle to be registered to both you and your daughter, where you are still the primary registered owner. Similar to the first scenario, you\u2019d be considered the primary driver on the insurance policy and your daughter would be the secondary driver.\nThe new state may allow the vehicle to be registered to both you and your daughter, where she is the new primary registered owner. If you choose this option, your daughter would be the primary driver on her insurance, but you\u2019d still need to be listed as a driver as well.\nIf there\u2019s no compelling reason for you to stay on the registration, the second option is generally the simplest option. But, if you need to be on the registration because you\u2019re on the vehicle loan or lease, you\u2019ll need to check with your daughter\u2019s new state to see what options they have available.",

        "title": "Surface Treatment Processes and Coating Techniques | MISUMI USA Blog",
        "raw_content": "There are many different methods by which a metallic coating can be applied as a surface treatment to increase the mechanical, electrochemical, and thermal performance of a material. The technique used largely depends on material application as well as the desired material coating or depth of the surface treatment. Although the subject of metallic and non-metallic coating techniques is a big subject possessing many technologically advanced methods, there are a few basic principles and techniques that, when understood, can be the key to a broader understanding of surface coating processes.\nAt the risk of over generalizing, the two most commonly specified families of surface coating techniques can be categorized as either a plating processes or a vapor deposition processes. However, within these two distinctions, there are further sub-distinctions as well; common examples of each process are provided and profiled below.\nHot Dipping Process\nPlating Processes:\nHot-Dipping: This process is typically a continuous or batch immersion process where the base alloy (typically steel) is fully submerged into a molten zinc bath. The hot-dipped zinc coatings form a coherent coating due to metallurgical bonds that form between the base metal and the zinc at the high bonding temperature. This technique is widely used across applications that demand a high level of atmospheric protection from corrosion of the base steel. Although most commonly used on steel alloys, variations galvanic hot dipping process are also feasible for coating other metals, such as aluminum.\nElectroplating: This is an electro-chemical process where metallic ions are deposited onto the surface of the bulk material via a cathodic polarization reaction. Chromium is a metal that is frequently electroplated onto materials to add wear resistance or even simply a decorative finish to the material, like what is commonly seen in a large number of \u201cchrome-plated\u201d automotive parts. Thicker electrodeposited chromium coatings provide excellent abrasion and wear resistance.\nCladding: This process is literally the joining of two dissimilar metals by mechanical means such as rolling or extruding the materials together under high temperatures which results in a pressure-welded joint of two dissimilar metallic alloys. This method is advantageous because the \u201ccomposite\u201d material retains all the beneficial properties of both of the requisite materials.\nElectro-plated Steel Coils\nVapor Deposition Processes:\nPhysical Vapor Deposition (PVD): This is the category of processes where the material surface coating is applied through the condensation of the vaporized alloy coating onto the material surface, in a physical process involving the movement of particles across physical material phase boundaries (from gas to solid). To put it simply, the surface coating alloy is first vaporized and then sprayed onto the surface of the base metal (typically within a vacuum). There are other variations and subsets of PVD, but this is the basic operative principle behind the concept. PVD is commonly used to apply thin coatings of titanium nitride (TiN) in order to harden metal cutting tools and greatly increase wear resistance of the tool.\nChemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): In contrast with PVD, in CVD there is an actual chemical interaction between a mixture of gases and the bulk surface of the material which causes chemical decomposition of some of the specific gas constituents, forming a solid coating on the surface of the base material. CVD is employed in a wide range of industry applications, such as the deposition of refractory materials (non-metallic materials that can withstand extremely high temperatures) on turbine blades in order to greatly increase the wear resistance and thermal shock resistances of the blades.\nPhysical Vapor Deposition \u2013 Plasma Spray\nThere are other types of surface treatment processes that can be employed to improve a material\u2019s mechanical, thermal, and/or electrical characteristics such as diffusion, ion implementation, or conversions coating techniques, but these processes are not strictly material coating processes where one dissimilar bulk material is overlaid on top of another. Nevertheless, this brief survey of material coating technologies should provide design engineers with a better understanding of the processes behind surface coatings, enabling them to better specify both the desired coating and coating process for each desired application.\ncoatingplatingTreatments\nPrevious PostE2E Video: Locating Pins Pt. 4 \u2013 Alignment ConcernsNext Post Timing Belts & Pulley Selection\nYour Metal is Showing: Low Temperature Black Chrome Plating\nLow temperature black chrome (LTBC) plating is a special coating used for many different products such as shafting, linear guides, and ...\nThere are many different methods by which a metallic coating can be applied as a surface treatment to increase the mechanical, ...\nAdvantages of Surface Coatings and Treatments\nNowadays, parts made from common alloys like steel can be specified with an impressive number of surface coatings and treatments options. ...",

        "raw_content": "Learn goal-setting from the Olympics\nPosted in: Knowing yourself, Productivity August 14th, 2004\nWatching the Olympics is inspirational if you need a kick in the pants to set high goals for yourself, but the trick is not to make goals so lofty that you make yourself sick.\nHaving finished 17th at beach volleyball nationals, I can tell you that the difference between the very top and those near the top is not skills \u2014 everyone has the skills. The difference is mental. Players in the top five or ten are so tough that almost nothing makes them waver, and their belief in their ability to succeed is extreme. I know because I didn't have those qualities, and as I inched closer to the top ranks the pressure gave me stomachaches during games.\nI remember the first time I played the team ranked #1 in the United States: I got killed. Their focus on the game was unflappable, whereas I found myself thinking about my bathing suit, the crowd, my mother. Anything. Everything. It was like my mind was possessed by the volleyball devil. And every time I lost focus I made an error on the court.\nLack of focus became a defense against the goals that overwhelmed me. By distracting myself from my goal \u2013 to get to the number one spot \u2014 I protected myself from huge disappointment. Unfortunately, I also ensured that I never inched up beyond 17th place. I found myself spending too much time off the court, excelling at ancillary parts of professional sports where the stakes weren't very high. I was great at landing sponsorships and sniffing out the best coaches, but my fear of failing at my real goal always held me back.\nToday I play volleyball only recreationally, but my experience with competitive volleyball informs my approach to setting goals in all aspects of my life: Goals should be tough enough that they challenge you to stay focused; goals should scare you a little because that's how you learn about yourself, but if the goals are too hard, you get stuck and stop learning.\nToday most advice is about how to dream big. But goals need to be flexible. Too small a goal would not be rewarding, but too big a goal can be stifling. You need to create goals for yourself that enable you to stay focused. One way to know how well you're setting goals is to look at your intensity of focus: Too small a goal does not require focus, and if you want for focus but you can't make it happen, then your goal is probably too large. The better you know yourself the better you will be at setting goals.\nI noticed that Natalie Coughlin, who has been called a more natural swimmer than anyone in history, decided to race in only two individual events in Athens. Most aficionados would say she's capable of winning more \u2014 maybe even a Michael Phelps sort of feat. But she knows her own limits and said, \u201cIt's good I'm not getting a lot of the attention he's getting. He does really well with that attention and I don't think I would do as well.\u201d\nI cannot imagine what it would be like to be as great an athlete as Natalie Coughlin, but I got shivers when I saw her holding a gold medal in Athens. Because I can imagine what it's like to have to adjust your goals in order to cope with the pressure. That is a path to success that requires knowing yourself very well, and it is a path as brave as any other.\nThat was the first time I realized that my focus was not strong enough to get into the top ten.\nBut I had worked so hard to get to #17. I felt surely I could figure out how to overcome the focus barrier. I tried the punishment approach (pushups for every mistake) and I tried the Zen approach (lessons in meditation). Nothing worked. Then I tried the introspection approach: I found that in a low-pressure game I had almost perfect focus. But in a high-pressure situation \u2014 like the end of a close game \u2013 I'd start thinking about my laundry, my mother, my senator. Anything. Everything. It was like my mind was possessed by the volleyball devil.\nI came to the conclusion that I was too scared to focus. The harder you focus on a goal, the more energy you put into a goal, there more there is at stake. When you focus very little, then not achieving that goal is okay. But when you dedicated every ounce of energy to that goal, the pressure to achieve is huge. In order to put that kind of pressure on yourself you have to have total faith in yourself. I had total faith until I reached #17. Then I folded.\nWhat neurologists tell us about goal setting\nIt only takes 15 minutes to do 99% of the things you want to accomplish\n5 Ways to meet a very big goal\nThanks for being so honest in this post Penny.

        "raw_content": "Posted in: Managing up, Mentoring, Office politics, Productivity January 4th, 2005\nGet more control of your time. It's hard to leave the office at a reasonable time of day when your workplace culture centers on long hours. But the cost of not leaving work is high: A half-built life and career burnout.\nOf course, if you never work long hours, you will never appear committed enough to get to the top ranks. So your job is to work enough hours to look committed but not so many hours that you risk your personal life and your ability to succeed over the long haul. People cannot work full-speed until they die. Pace yourself so you don't burnout before you reach your potential.\n1. Find the back door. Figure out what criteria people use for promotion. It is never only how many hours you work. In many professions you need to work a lot of hours, but there is always a way to be impressive enough to cut back on hours. In the realm of superstars, achievement is based on quality over quantity. Figure out how to turn out extremely impressive work so that you can get away with fewer hours. For example, if you're a lawyer, you could pick up one, very important client for the firm, and then cut back a little on your hours.\n2. Be clear on your schedule and clear on priorities. Once you figure out which projects matter a lot and which don't, get the high-priority work. Then you can jump at the chance to tell someone handing out low-profile projects that you're booked \u2013 working on something that is a higher priority.\n3. Go public. Tell people about your schedule ahead of time. For example, \u201cI have Portuguese lessons on Thursdays at 7pm. The class is important to me.\u201d When you plan a vacation, announce it early and talk about it a lot. The more people know about how much you have been preparing and anticipating your trip the less likely people will be to ask you to cancel it.\n4. Find a silent mentor. Look for someone who is respected but does not work insane hours. This will take careful hunting because this person is not likely to be obvious about it. Watch him from afar and figure out how he operates. Few people will want to mentor you in the art of dodging work \u2014 it's bad for one's image. But you could enlist the person to help you in other areas and hope he decides to help you in the workload area as well.\n5. Find a new specialty. There are some careers that hold no hope for shorter hours. Video game production and surgery come to mind. At the beginning of your career, you're in a good spot to change your path if you see no hope for a personal life on the horizon. A career change is easier when your career is new. Don't take this opportunity for granted; it will be much harder to change when you're in you\u2019ve invested a decade in the career.\n6. Respect your personal life so that other people will, too. If you don't create a life outside of work that is joyful and engaging then you won't feel a huge need to leave work. And if you don't project a passion for life outside of work then no one will think twice about asking you to live at work.\nSo get some passion in your personal life. If you can't think of anything, start trying stuff: Snowboarding, pottery, speed dating. The only way to discover new aspects of yourself is to give them new opportunities to come out.\n7 ways to decrease your hours without harming your career\nThe organization man of the new millennium\nPosted by dianne on July 6, 2006 at 12:09 am | permalink |",

        "raw_content": "Today was my regular three-month visit with my oncologist. My CA 15-3 tumour marker has gone down to 29! That's *half* of what it was when I first found out I had mets, and is definitely within normal range. This is fantastic news!!! It means that the cancer is staying put (maybe even having a bit of a sleep) instead of running around looking for new places to hang out.\nI'll be having an abdominal CT scan in the next two weeks just to confirm that there's nothing going on in my liver. We'll also scan my pelvis at the same time because the last time I had a CT scan, there were two teensy-tiny sclerotic lesions in my left hemi-pelvis. That's the side of my hip and back that hurts... so it's possible that the pain isn't just from my back. I'm pretty sure that we're not going to find anything important in the scan but it's important to do them. I think my oncologist might switch me to CT scans every six months instead of once a year, which I'd like.\nSpeaking of pain, we talked about my lower back and hip as well. She said that I have a *very* bad back, especially for someone of my age... and that there's nothing much that can be done for it. There's degeneration around two discs just above my sacrum. I don't see how this is going to get better\nMy theory about the pain is this: much of the pain from there is caused by bone against bone; plus I think that there's a nerve being pinched sometimes - not the sciatic nerve, but one of the ones in that bundle of nerves - that's causing pain in my left leg and hip, and in my effort to not be in pain there, I may or may not have given myself bursitis in that hip.\nI talked to my oncologist about tis theory and she agrees that this might make sense. She also said that she wouldn't have the first clue how to treat any of this - which isn't a surprise, since she's an oncologist :) This is definitely something that I'll be wanting to talk to my family doctor about.\nWe also talked about a PET scan. She said that if I really, really wanted one that I could go ahead and do it. But she also said that the PET scan is sort of like a bone scan in that it shows areas of increased tracer takeup, but those areas are fuzzy and aren't necessarily diagnostic. As well, the scan doesn't show things under 1cm and she won't be able to treat anything that shows up unless it also showed up and was measurable on a CT (or MRI) scan.\nShe did say that some people will do a PET scan if they want to surgically remove (resect) cancer from an organ like the liver and they want to be sure that there's no cancer anywhere else.\nI guess if she did PET scans all the time she might feel differently - many people in the US have PET/CT scans instead of just bone scans, CTs or MRIs - but this is the way things are here.\nSo based on all of that, plus the fact that my tumour markers are so low, and because I'm having a CT scan within two weeks, I'm not going to do a PET scan right now. I'm ok with this because I get other scans and I don't feel like I'm not being scanned or that the cancer won't be caught early enough. I'll keep the PET in the back of my mind, though, in case anything changes.\nLabels: cancer, doctors appointments, test results, tests, tumour markers\nCongratulations on the awesome tumour markers! That's very good good news :)\nyay! i'm so happy to read that the markers are down!",

        "title": "The Revenge of LSAC - LSAT Blog",
        "raw_content": "The Revenge of LSAC\nHome \u00bb Admissions \u00bb The Revenge of LSAC\nWe told you a few months ago about the beginning of what is now a law school admissions trend (if two counts as a trend, that is): law schools accepting the GRE in lieu of the LSAT. If you\u2019re reading this blog, you likely know that the GRE is the standardized test those going on to graduate school \u2014 rather than a professional school, like like law school \u2014 take. It tests math and verbal skills, whereas the LSAT tests logic and argumentation.\nWell, it looks like Law School Admission Council (LSAC), which creates and administers the LSAT, is hitting back. Hard. LSAC is considering rescinding the University of Arizona\u2019s membership in the organization.\nWhy does this matter? In addition to creating and administering the LSAT, LSAC runs the Credential Assembly Service (CAS). CAS is the main clearinghouse for law school applications. Aspiring law students send in the relevant application materials like transcripts, letters of recommendation, personal statement, etc., and sends it on to the schools to which the applicant wishes to apply. Since this is the exclusive method of application used by most applicants, University of Arizona is sure to see a swift and massive drop in applications as a result.\nIt\u2019s no secret that many law schools, especially the lower ranked ones, are in financial trouble for lack of enrollments. It\u2019s ironic for U of A then that a gambit meant to bring in more applicants may, in the long run, do such damage to their applicant pool.\n\u201cWe anticipated that [LSAC] wouldn\u2019t welcome this with open arms, but we didn\u2019t predict this particular action,\u201d said Marc Miller, the dean of U of A\u2019s law school. \u201cThis seems like a pretty bald way to punish us for innovating.\u201d\nLSAC is relying on a provision in the bylaws that requires \u201csubstantially all of its applicants for admission take the Law School Admission Test.\u201d University of Arizona claims to have met that standard. They\u2019re relying on a related precedent set at many schools: so-called \u201cpipeline programs\u201d where students who attend the undergraduate program of the school can matriculate into the law school without taking the LSAT. University of Arizona argues that the fact that 35 applicants out of a pool of 1,300 is in line with numbers of non-LSAT takers that have applied in pipeline schools. If 35 non-LSAT takers counts as substantially all in that case, why wouldn\u2019t it in this instance. The obvious answer is that the GRE is a competitor to the LSAT whereas pipeline programs are small exceptions to it.\nIt will be interesting to see who blinks first.\nThe Number of Law Schools Accepting the GRE Just\u2026\nA Law School Reverses Its Policy on Accepting the GRE\nMay 4, 2016 - 10:37 am - By Ross Rinehart\nPhoto Credit: Lars Kristian Flem.

I received a promotional item to thank me for participating.\nUnfortunately I hear about cyber bullying way too much. It\u2019s in the news with its sometimes grisly outcomes. And I have a dear friend whose daughters are living the nightmare every day. It is taking a lot of time, effort and money to try to end the bullying and to catch the people involved. As a parent of a 15 year old girl I want to protect her and teach her about cyber safety, but I need to know exactly how.\nThe Boys and Girls Club of America has a website for both parents and teens about cyber safety. The information pertains to cell phones, social media sites and online privacy. There are tons of resources including a glossary of terms, information on technology, rules for cell phones and how to avoid being bullied.\nA group of teens, the Cyber Tribe, answers questions that are submitted through this site. Fun and informative videos portray the material and will catch your teen\u2019s attention. Click through on \u201cResources\u201d and you\u2019ll find links to articles about cyber safety.\nYou can also download and print discussion cards for the main topics: Cyber Bullying, Social Networking, Online Privacy and Mobile Technology. Although these cards are meant for a small group, I am using them as a \u201ccheat sheet\u201d to remind myself of the facts and issues I need to discuss with my daughter.\nI learned that these types of discussions shouldn\u2019t happen just one time, but often. Parents should also check your child\u2019s phone and friend them on social networking sites. When you do this, and the other suggestions listed by the Boys and Girls Club Cyber Safety Site, you are being a \u201cCyber Smart\u201d parent.\nJune is Internet Safety Awareness month and the BGCA CyberSafe Site is celebrating with a weekly teen Cyber Tribe Q&A in partnership with Sprint. Ask the Tribe a question and you\u2019ll be entered to win an iPad Mini and $500 to the Boys and Girls Club of your choice.\nKeeping in mind my friend\u2019s daughters and the terrible stories I have heard in the news, I want to do all I can to keep my daughter safe online. I\u2019m bookmarking this site and sharing in with my daughter.\nFor the best online safety for little children, we ended up adopting Magic Desktop as an environment for our kids to fool around in. It is full proof and focused on their sensibilities, which is more than most other software we\u2019ve seen so far. totally recommended, you can get it here: http://www.magicdesktop.com/\nI\u2019ll have to check that out, Trish. I haven\u2019t heard of it before.\nTwitter: klcmaher\nThis topic is in the news so often now. What gets me the most is the bullies are usually bullied themselves by someone older, or by parents. It\u2019s a vicious cycle, and often the beginning of domestic violence. Thank you for the info. The Boys & Girls Clubs of America are wonderful places for kids!\nSo true, about bullies being bullied. We need to get help for them before they can hurt others.\nJulie Cutshaw\nTwitter: itsallnew2me\nMy sister works for the Boys and Girls Club of America as a bus driver and cafeteria worker. And I see many great things that they do for the community. What a great way for the kids to help in this effort. I too know kids who suffer from cyber bullying and so glad they have a way to help stop the sad cycle.\nJulie, Thank your sister for me! And isn\u2019t it sad that there are so many children struggling with cyberbullyin?",

        "raw_content": "The Brookline Arts Center (BAC) was founded in 1964 as a small parent cooperative for children\u2019s art classes in the basement of Mim and Barney Berliner\u2019s Brookline home. It was administered by volunteers and taught by a professional artist. Since 1967, the BAC has been a nonprofit educational charitable institution (501c3) serving as a community center for the visual arts for Brookline and Greater Boston.\nIn 1966, the BAC began efforts to acquire or lease empty Fire Station #3 on the border of Boston and Brookline. The building, designed by Peabody and Stearns and originally a chemical firehouse, was slated for demolition. In early 1968, The Town of Brookline consented to its use as an arts center and the BAC moved in. During the summer of that year, volunteers and professionals worked to clean and refurbish the building to bring the first floor up to code. On November 4, 1968, the BAC opened its first classes on the premises, and in that initial year, enrolled about 100 children. Since then, the building has been in continuous use by the BAC. We currently hold a 30-year lease with The Town of Brookline. (For more information about Fire Station #3, please visit our History of Monmouth Street Area page.)\nIn 1995, the landscape was renovated, following a plan by Landscape Designer and Brookline resident Mary Dewart. Thanks to a Community Development Block Grant from The Town of Brookline, handicap access was improved. In addition, numerous new trees, shrubs and groundcover were planted and a bluestone courtyard was installed in front of the building's double door facade. The courtyard was dedicated to Rosamond Vaule, first Board President and long-time supporter of the BAC, in a ribbon-cutting ceremony on October 14, 1995.\nIn 1999, the BAC established a scholarship endowment to provide a permanent and dependable source of assistance for need-based scholarships and outreach programs. Three years after that and after more renovation, a new gallery on the first floor was opened with the assistance of past Board President and long-time BAC supporter, Carol Hall. The gallery continues to provide a space for local, national and international artists to exhibit their work.\nOur mission is as present today in all of our programs and activities as it was in our founders' basement so many years ago. With a faculty of professional working artists, rotating exhibitions and community outreach, the BAC continues to focus on providing high quality visual arts classes, exhibitions and events for our students and community.",

They opened their Terenure showrooms in 1990 \u2013 one of three Irish retail shops, along with Sutton and Limerick \u2013 and they went into liquidation in 2011, leaving the unit empty.\nThe signage at Falks does a lot of things wrong: it\u2019s in blocks stuck on the front of the building instead of being integrated or continuous, the lettering is gigantic, the fascia (signboard) is much deeper than its neighbours, and have you noticed the gable yet?\nIn spite of this, I think it\u2019s great and I\u2019ll be sad when it eventually goes. The gable sign is ridiculous to the point of being charming (a bit like The Hill\u2018s), especially with the top lopped off. It\u2019s the boldness of the lettering and the icons that\u2019s really selling it, with the giant electric candelabra (or possibly a sensibly-sized chandelier?) on the right, and the rail of spotlights on the left. \u2018LIGHT \u2013 STUDIO\u2019 is such a stark phrase too, and there\u2019s the same sort of utilitarian intrigue for me as in packaging on old photographic film or Solus lightbulbs.\nHowever questionable its integration with the streetscape might be, and being a single-storey standalone at the end of the row mitigates that a bit, Falks deserve a parade for choosing such great illustrations. The forms are simple, but there\u2019s a huge amount of character packed in to the representation of these ordinary objects.\nPosted in Signage \u00b7 Tagged: dublin 6, lighting, plastic, signage, terenure",

        "raw_content": "Shazam! Features a Superman Cameo That's Not Henry Cavill?\nShazam! reportedly has a Superman cameo from an actor that is not Henry Cavill. It has been rumored ever since David Sandberg's movie was announced that the Man of Steel was going to have a cameo. However, those discussions were struck down last year over reports that Cavill and the studio could not reach an agreement over Man of Steel 2 and an appearance in the upcoming Shazam! movie. But, it looks like the studio may have found a way around using Cavill. There could possibly be SPOILERS for Shazam! below, so read ahead at your own risk.\nAccording to sources close to the Shazam! production, Superman does appear in the movie at the very end. Apparently the cameo is the payoff to a running joke throughout the movie. The joke revolves around Billy Batson's foster brother, Freddy Freeman, who has been asking him to show up at his school in the Shazam suit to prove to his friends and classmates that he really knows the superhero. At the end of the movie, Batson agrees, and brings along a friend.\nAfter Billy Batson shows up at Freddy Freeman's school, he introduces Superman, but we don't see Henry Cavill. Instead, we reportedly never see his face and a body double was used on the set. Obviously, this news comes from sources who claim to be close to the Shazam! production, which makes this a rumor for the time being. However, if this ends up being true, it could cause quite a stir amongst DCEU fans from all over the world, angry that the studio made the decision to use someone other than Cavill as Superman.\nRelated: New Shazam Poster Wants You to Just Say the Word\nIt looks like Henry Cavill is finished playing Superman in the DCEU, much like Ben Affleck is done with The Batman project. So, it makes sense to do what the studio allegedly did by bringing in a body double to take care of business. But on the other side of things, seeing the Man of Steel on the big screen without Cavill in the suit could bum out a lot of fans who will more than likely see this as the final nail in the coffin for a possible Man of Steel 2.\nYou never know, there's still a little bit of time before Shazam! hits theaters. This could have been a decoy scene to keep a real Henry Cavill cameo a secret. It's entirely possible that David Sandberg could have had a private day with Cavill with a skeleton crew who all had to sign NDAs. Stranger things have happened, but for now this is speculation. Shazam! doesn't hit theaters until April 5th, so we have a little while to find out, unless early screenings spoil anything. We Got This Covered was the first to announce a Superman cameo in Shazam! without Henry Cavill's involvement.\nTopics: Shazam, Superman\nhttps://movieweb.com/shazam-movie-superman-cameo-not-henry-cavill/",

(Photo by Grant Halverson/Getty Images)\n[Clemson rolling, Miami reeling entering title fight]\n[Odds, rankings and notes entering championship week]\nMiami will try to win the ACC Championship with another one of its best players on the sideline.\nSenior tight end Chris Herndon will have season-ending surgery on his left knee, UM announced Sunday. Herndon injured his MCL in Friday\u2019s 24-14 loss at Pittsburgh, limping off late in the third quarter after catching a pass.\nHerndon, 6-foot-4 and 252 pounds, caught 40 passes for 477 yards and four touchdowns, setting career highs in all three categories.\n\u201cHe\u2019s been a warrior for us,\u201d Mark Richt said on a Sunday conference call to kick off game week (8 p.m. Saturday, ABC). \u201cHe\u2019s the kind of person you love to coach. I know he\u2019s going to have a really wonderful NFL career. It\u2019s a shame he can\u2019t finish with us, because he\u2019s very important to us. He\u2019s been a mainstay.\u201d\nHe will be replaced by sophomore Michael Irvin II, who has five catches for 56 yards this year. UM\u2019s only other scholarship tight ends are true freshman Brian Polendey and redshirt sophomore Scott Patchan, a converted defensive end. Neither has a reception in college.\nIrvin \u201chas earned the right to play over this season, and he has gotten better as the season has gone along,\u201d Richt said, adding that he will continue to play on special teams. He expressed confidence in Irvin, who has been suspended multiple times in his short UM career, saying he believes the sophomore will rise to the challenge of being a starter.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s typical when a guy becomes a starter, their level of play tends to go up,\u201d Richt said. \u201cI think he knows when everybody is relying on him even more than they did in the past, it\u2019ll help him play even better.\u201d\nMiami (10-1, 7-1 ACC), which dropped to No. 7 in the Associated Press poll after losing at Pitt, has dealt with a similar injury situation at running back. UM lost star junior Mark Walton on Oct. 7 at Florida State to a right ankle injury. Travis Homer, a sophomore like Irvin, has 861 and seven touchdowns on 137 carries. He ranks fifth in the ACC in yards per carry (6.26).\nClemson coach Dabo Swinney was unaware of Herndon\u2019s injury when he spoke on the conference call. He called Herndon \u201can excellent player\u201d when asked to give his initial thoughts on the Hurricanes.\nUM tight ends coach Todd Hartley shared an emotional message:\nCan\u2019t describe the hurt I\u2019m feeling right now for YOU. Always showed up EVERYDAY to work and give EVERYTHING you had to this program, and for that I am forever grateful. It was a privilege to have been your Coach these past two years.

JOE AND ANOTHER\nKORSAH C.J., SARKODEE-ADDO AND AKIWUMI JJ.S.C.\nWills?-Claim by beneficiary under will?-Allegation by defendants that will disregarded with acquiescence of plaintiffs?-Whether will suppressed.Administration of estates?-Letters of administration of deceased's personal property obtained?-Will known to have been executed?-Purported assignment by administrator of leasehold property bequeathed to second plaintiff?-Whether second plaintiff entitled to declaration of title.Customary law?-Appointment of successor?-Capacity of successor to assign family property.\nThe deceased, J.E. Ansah, made a will dated the 3rd March 1946, appointing the first plaintiff, his son, W.W. Ansah his successor, \"to look after my affairs on demise and it is my desire that he is not obstructed in this respect\". In his will J.E. Ansah bequeathed leasehold property, plot No. 42 John Sarbah Road, to his customary wife Intsitsi, the second plaint J.E. Ansah died on the 26th April, 1946, and in June that year the will which had been deposited in court by the testator was read to the relatives. Thereafter the will was left in court until 1951. Letters of administration of the personal property of the deceased were granted to one J.A. Simons, his maternal brother, and to the deceased's son, the said W.W. Ansah on the 14th August, 1946. J.A. Simons died in February, 1947, and letters of administration of his personal property were granted on the 16th June, 1947, to Atta Kwami, his cousin and the original first defendant in his suit. Thereafter Kwami purported to control the personal properties of both Simons and J.E. Ansah, and had himself substituted as lessee of plot No. 42, [p.396] John Sarbah Road, which, with the permission of the Lands Department he assigned to the second defendant for valuable consideration sometime in 1950.On the 22nd November, 1952, the court recalled the original grant of letters of administration of the personal property of J.E. Ansah deceased and ordered letters of administration with will annexed to issue in place therefor to W.W. Ansah \"to administer the estate in accordance with the terms of the will\". In these proceedings Atta Kwami did not file any defence.Atta Kwami died in August, 1958, and was substituted by his cousin, Kwesi Joe, the head of the family, as the first defendant; W.W. Ansah died on the 10th August, 1959, and was succeeded by his brother I. B. Ansah as first plaintiff.The plaintiffs claimed as beneficiary and administrator of the will respectively a declaration of title to plot No. 42 John Sarbah Road in favour of the second plaintiff, the widow of J.E. Ansah, an account of the rents and profits thereof and damages for trespass. The defendants alleged that the will was never acted upon \"to the knowledge and with the acquiescence of the plaintiffs\". The defendants, however, ignored a request for further and better particulars with regard to this allegation.In the High Court, Smith, J. found for the defendants. On the evidence, he could \"only assume that there was some agreement to leave the will in the High Court\". Further, he could not hold that the assignment of plot No. 42 John Sarbah Road to the second defendant was void because there was no proof that he was not a bona fide purchaser for value, there was no evidence that he know of the existence of the will, and the assignment to him was made by a person who had been appointed successor by the family, although \"Atta Kwame was never held out by them to the second defendant or for that matter to anyone else as the absolute owner of the property\". Smith J. concluded \"The only remedy for the widow would appear to be against the successor's estate\".On appeal,\nAPPEAL from a judgment of Smith J. in the Land Court, Sekondi delivered on the 20th May, 1960 (unreported) which had dismissed the claims of the plaintiffs as administrator of the personal property and beneficiary respectively under the will of J.E. Ansah deceased, for declaration of title to certain leasehold property in favour of the second plaintiff, account for rents and profits thereof and damages for trespass. The facts as set out in the headnote are taken from the judgment of Smith J. and were substantially adopted by the Supreme Court.\nHe delivered the judgment of the court. This is an appeal from the judgment of the Land Court, Sekondi, dated the 20th May, 1960, with respect to leasehold premises known as plot No. 42, John Sarbah Road, in the African Township of Takoradi, bequeathed to the second plaintiff by the late John Essel Ansah who died on the 26th April, 1946, in his last will and testament bearing date the 3rd March, 1946, and deposited in the High Court, Sekondi on the 16th April, 1946. The said plot is comprised in a lease dated 17th December, 1943, and made between the then Governor of the Gold Coast Colony for the government as lessor of the one part and the said John Essel Ansah as lessee of the other part whereby the premises therein contained were vested in the lessee for the term of 98 years and six months from the 1st October, 1943, subject as therein appearing.\nThe plaintiffs' claim as administrators of the personal property and beneficiary of the will respectively of the said John Essel Ansah, deceased, against the defendants jointly and severally is for a declaration of title to the said leasehold premises in favour of the second plaintiff; an account of the rents and profits thereof; and damages for trespass as per the particulars annexed to the claim.\nThe defence to this claim is set out in the defendants' statement of defence and reads:\n\"1. The will referred to in paragraph 2,3 and 4 of the particulars of claim was disregarded and never acted upon at the time of John Essel Ansah's death to the knowledge of and with the acquiescence of the plaintiffs.\n2. James Alfonso Simons (deceased) was the customary successor of John Essel Ansah (deceased) and was appointed administrator (not with will annexed) with the approval and acquiescence of the plaintiffs and the family (according to custom) of John Essel Ansah (deceased).\n3. On the death of James Alfonso Simons the first defendant was appointed customary successor and granted letters of administration.\n4. The 1st defendant as administrator and customary successor administered in good faith the estate of James Alfonso Simons (deceased) including the estate of John Essel Ansah (deceased) which was family property.\n5. The 1st defendant denies all allegations of fraud and false statement contained in the statement of claim and the particulars thereto. [p.398]\n6. The 2nd defendant was a bona fide purchaser for value without notice of fraud and dishonesty.\n7. The 1st defendant will contend that the assignment of Plot No. 42 John Sarbah Road, Takoradi, to the 2nd defendant was valid and not affected by the order of 22nd November, 1952.\n8. The defendants will content that the plaintiffs are barred by laches and acquiescence\".\nSubsequent to filing and service of the defence the plaintiffs by their solicitors requested the defendants to furnish further and better particulars in the terms following:\n\"You are requested to provide further and better particulars of the several matters and things hereunder stated arising out of the defendant's statement of defence filed herein.\n\"1.(a) As to the circumstances in which the will of John Essel Ansah (deceased) was disregarded as averred in paragraph 1 of the statement of defence.\n(b) As to whether and if so, in what circumstances it is alleged that the said will was disregarded lawfully.\n(c) Of the alleged knowledge and acquiescence thereof of the plaintiffs.\n2. (a) Of the approval and acquiescence of the plaintiffs alleged in paragraph 2 of the statement of defence in relation to the appointment of James Alfonso Simons the administrator of the deceased estate.\n(b) Of the custom relied on in the said paragraph.\n3. In what circumstances is it alleged in paragraph 4 of the statement of defence that the estate of John Essel Ansah (deceased) was family property and at what time and in what manner is it claimed that the same became family property.\n4. Of the general denial contained in paragraph 5 of the statement of defence (vide O.19 rr. 18 8 20).\n5. Of the general allegation of laches and acquiescence made in paragraph 8 of the statement of defence\".\nThe request for further and better particulars was ignored by the defendants, and the case proceeded to trial without supplying the plaintiffs with the particulars of the points raised by the defence as to the will being disregarded and never acted upon to the knowledge of and with the acquiescence of the plaintiffs, and also the allegation of laches.\nNo family settlement was pleaded nor proved. The allegation by counsel for the defence in cross-examination of the first plaintiff that \"it was agreed that the Ashanti Road house (with lorry and gun) should be the property of the children of the deceased - and that the John Sarbah Road property should become the property of the family\" was rejected.\nAt the hearing of the appeal counsel for the respondents applied for leave to amend paragraph 1 of the statement of defence to read thus:\n\"There was a family settlement of the apportionment of the properties at which the plaintiffs were present and all the members including the plaintiffs accepted\".\nThis application was refused as untenable at that stage before this court. The will was made known to the family as is clearly borne out by exhibit E (letter dated the 11th May, 1946, from Mr. C.E.M.\nAbbensetts to the Registrar, Divisional Court, Sekondi) which reads as follows: [p.399]\nIn re J.E. Ansah (Deceased)\n\"I have been retained by the relatives of the deceased to act for the estate. I understand that the deceased made a will and I am sending the relatives together with Mr. J.A. Winney who was a personal friend of the deceased.\nWill you kindly open up the will and read it to them and read it to them and at the same time let me have a certified copy of it to enable me to apply for Probate.\n(Sgd.) C.E.M. Abbensetts\".\nThe first original plaintiff and the first original defendant in this suit which commenced sometime in 1956 have died and have been substituted, but a careful perusal of the record of the proceedings makes it abundantly clear that the family suppressed the will wherein the testator appointed his son William Wilfred Ansah alias Esson Kadebi as his \"lawful successor\" and made a bequest of the property in dispute to his wife Intsitsi, the second plaintiff whom he married by native custom.\nThe manoeuvres of the family, headed by Atta Kwami alias Ngather Kwame, to defeat the wishes and intentions of the testator culminated in the sale of the property to John Wilson Gyamfi, the second defendant; and on the facts as admitted and proved, at no time was Ataa Kwami held out as the owner of the property to deal with it as he did nor was the sale with the knowledge and approval of the beneficiary, the second plaintiff who is still alive.\nOn the 14th August, 1946, letters of administration of the personal property of the deceased were granted to one J.A. Simons who held himself out as successor and head of the family of the deceased and the said W.W. Ansah, the maternal brother and son respectively of the deceased. J.A. Simons died in February, 1947, and letters of administration of his personal property were granted on the 16th June, 1947, to Atta Kwami his cousin (the original first defendant in this suit) and he purported to control the properties of Simons and J.E. Ansah. Atta Kwami thereafter fraudulently represented to the Lands Department that he was the successor of both his deceased cousins J.E. Ansah and J.A. Simons and was substituted as lessee; and he was thereafter granted permission to assign the John Sarbah Road property which he had developed to the second defendant sometime in 1950.\nOn the 22nd November, 1952, the court recalled the original grant of letters of administration of the personal property of J.E. Ansah and ordered letters of administration with will annexed to issue in place therefor to W.W. Ansah \"to administer the estate in accordance with the terms of the will\". In these proceedings Atta Kwami did not file any defence. There was no opposition.\nAtta Kwami died in August, 1958, and was substituted by his cousin Kwesi Joe?-the head of the family?-as first defendant. W.W. Ansah died on the 10th August, 1959; he was substituted by his brother Isaac Brandford Ansah as first plaintiff to whom letters of administration of the personal property of W.W. Ansah had been granted. [p.400] J.A. Simons died leaving W.W. Ansah the co-administrator as sole administrator, so that Atta Kwami could not administer the personal estate of J.E. Ansah even if there was intestacy; but in this case there was a will which in law speaks upon the death of the testator.\nThe deceased in his will requested his said lawful successor to look after his affairs on demise and it was his desire that \"he should not be obstructed in this respect\".\nIt is a settled rule of law that the grant of letters of administration applies to personalty only and that no real property vests in the person to whom letters are granted?-See Victoria Gorleku v. George Gorleku1: Obuobi v. Yar Borley12. (1934) 2 W.A.C.A. 46 at p.512.\nIn Ghana, a leasehold interest in land is still personal property, not real property, and as such can be administered by a person holding letters of administration - see Nsiah v. Union Trading Company, Ltd.3\nIn the instant case however, these considerations are inapplicable as neither J.A. Simons nor Atta Kwami could administer the estate of J.E. Ansah the deceased who died testate; in any event, under native customary law a successor alone cannot part with family property, nor in law would an alleged family settlement be tenable unless a waiver could be proved upon consideration in respect of the will.\nOn the evidence we are of the opinion that the learned judge misdirected himself and erred in assuming that there was some agreement to leave the will in the High Court and for letters of administration to be taken out as if there was an intestacy; and further that in view of the fact that the allegation of fraud has not been proved coupled with the absence of proof to the contrary that the second defendant was a bone fide purchaser for value, it is not possible to grant the plaintiffs' claim for declaration of ownership. No one can give that which is not his: nemo dat quod non habet.\nIt is an erroneous view of the law to hold as the learned judge did that notwithstanding total lack of title in Atta Kwami, he could vest the property in the second defendant who bought from him following upon fraudulent representations to the Lands Department.\nA purchaser must look out for himself: caveat emptor. He must take precautions for his own protection - if he does not he \"asks for it\" and cannot complain if he \"gets it\". It follows that any transaction by the defendants relating to the property is void.\nIn all the circumstances, we are satisfied that the learned judge erred in his findings and conclusions and his judgment dismissing the plaintiffs' case must be set aside. [p.401]\nThe appeal is accordingly allowed and the judgment together with the order as to costs set aside. In lieu thereof there will be judgment for the plaintiffs against the defendants jointly and severally in the terms following:\n(a) A declaration of ownership of the John Sarbah Road property in dispute in favour of the second plaintiff.\n(b) An account of the rents and profits of the said property up to the date of the rendering of such accounts, and payment of the total amount to the second plaintiff in whom title to the property vested as from the death of the testator;\n(c) As to damages in view of the fact that the second plaintiff is illiterate and had been deprived of her bequest for over fifteen years (since April, 1946) through no fault of hers she is awarded G300 as general damages.\n<P>Appeal allowed.</P> <P>Judgment for the plaintiffs.</P>\nE.

        "title": "Millennials and breakfast | Convenience Central",
        "raw_content": "Tags: Breakfast, Millennials, Trends\nBy David Coletto, CEO Abacus Data\nIt\u2019s the most important meal of the day and for many c-store owners who are feeling the impact of changing consumer preferences and technological changes on the business, breakfast represents a huge opportunity to grow revenue and build a relationship with Canada\u2019s largest consumer market \u2013 the Millennials.\nIn partnership with EnsembleIQ, publisher of Convenience Store News Canada, my market research firm Abacus Data conducted a national survey in the summer of 2018 to explore how Millennials feel about breakfast and the opportunities that exist for the c-store category with the Millennial Generation.\nMillennials are consumers born between 1980 and 2000. With a population of about 9.5 million across Canada, there are more Millennials in Canada than any other generation. Over 1.25 million of them will form their own households in the next five years. As consumers, they seek convenience, high-quality, and increasingly healthy options in the food they eat. They are the most sought-after market for retailers and food service operators alike and their preferences will shape the market for years to come.\nHere\u2019s what our national survey found:\nAt this stage in their life, Millennials are less likely to eat breakfast than older generations but when they eat breakfast, they are more likely to do so outside their home. In a typical week, the average millennial will eat breakfast 4.7 days a week compared with 5.3 days for older Canadians.\nIn fact, only 42% of Millennials say they always make time to eat breakfast, 18 points less likely than older generations. But it\u2019s not because they don\u2019t want to eat breakfast, it\u2019s just they feel a time crunch and sometimes skip the meal if finding breakfast isn\u2019t easy or convenient.\nWhen they do eat breakfast, 76% of meals are made at home, 15% of breakfast meals involve eating something that is pre-made or packaged while 9% of meals are consumed at a restaurant or from a retailer.\nMore millennial breakfasts are eaten outside the home than those consumed by older generations (24% vs. 15%).\nGiven this, it\u2019s not surprising that they are more likely to visit retailers or restaurants for those out of home breakfasts with grocery stores, quick service restaurants, c-stores, and sit-down restaurants being the most popular stops. Most importantly, Millennials are five times as likely to get breakfast at a convenience store at least once per week than older generations (15% vs. 3%). That\u2019s about 1.4 million Millennials visiting a c-store for breakfast at least once a week \u2013 and many visit more than once per week.\nSlightly more than a quarter (27%) of Millennials are open to eating breakfast at a c-store but only do so once a month or less. That is approximately 2.5 million more Millennials open to getting their breakfast at c-store but have not found a reason to go more regularly. C-stores are tied for third on Millennials\u2019 menu of breakfast establishments, after grocery stores, quick serve restaurants like McDonald\u2019s, Tim Hortons or Starbucks, and tied with sit-down restaurants. Compared to grocery stores and sit-down restaurants, c-stores offer greater convenience and can often compete with quick serve restaurants with convenience and price and could represent an equal alternative. C-stores offer a lot to millennial consumers and can leverage those positive qualities to capture a wider share of the millennial breakfast market.\nBut beyond the current and immediate potential markets, c-stores need to understand what Millennials are looking for in their breakfast. Here\u2019s what our survey found out:\nLike all consumers, taste is a key factor for most Millennials. 75% say how the meal tastes is one of the most important or a very important factor in their decision to what they eat for breakfast.\nBut beyond tastes, most Millennials are also looking for convenience, 64% say it\u2019s very important compared with 47% of older generations.\nThey are also looking for a cheaper meal option. 61% say cost is a very important factor, 13 points higher than older Canadians.\nBeyond convenience and price, there are few differences between Millennials and older consumers in what drives their decisions. About half are looking for meals with protein and some fruit or vegetables. Four in 10 care about the amount of fibre in their food and only 31% are calorie conscious, saying that eating as few calories as possible is one of the most important or a very important factor in their decision-making.\nIn summary there is a path to increase the number of millennial breakfasters who choose c-stores to provide them with their morning meal. With the natural c-store edge of convenience and competitive prices, c-stores are already enticing many Millennials to occasionally purchase breakfast at their local c-store. Where c-stores can start winning more of the millennial breakfast market is by providing healthy breakfast foods more conveniently, and more inexpensively than grocery stores, sit down restaurants or even quick service restaurants.\nThe three most important traits Millennials take into consideration when choosing a breakfast food to buy are 1) taste, 2) convenience, and 3) price. Convenience stores are known to offer the last two of those three traits and n\now need to convince Millennials that the food found in c-stores tastes great. Emphasizing the health elements of these foods \u2014 particularly fibre, protein, caloric content, and the use of fresh ingredients \u2014 will be key to competing with grocery stores and sit-down restaurants and converting the 2.5 million Millennials who are open to eating at c-stores to actually doing so. Partnering with local chefs or entrepreneurs using local ingredients or novelties would all act as \u201cpulls\u201d for Millennials who perceive these things as adding confidence and quality to their food.\nMany Millennials are commuters and feel crunched for time. C-stores often have premium locations \u2014 gas stations, neighbourhood corners, etc. \u2014 that can capitalize on transient Millennials and can bring in these traditional breakfast skippers with the promise of quick food that is healthy and can prepare them for the day ahead. In most cases c-stores can do this faster than most quick service restaurants, which would add an additional destination to a millennial\u2019s commute, so c-stores should be the one-stop-shop.",

        "title": "Christian Beginnings And the Dead Sea Scrolls @ CenturyOne Bookstore",
        "raw_content": "Christian Beginnings And the Dead Sea Scrolls\nEdited by John J. Collins and Craig A. Evans\nThe Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered more than half a century ago, have proved to be the most important modern discovery related to biblical literature, Judaism of late antiquity, and nascent Christianity. The scrolls have made an important contribution to our understanding of the development of the text and canon of Scripture, including such issues as textual preservation and transmission. They have also contributed to our knowledge of doctrine, especially pertaining to law and eschatological expectations.\nIn this volume, six leading scholars--John Collins, Craig Evans, Martin Abegg, R. Glenn Wooden, Barry Smith, and Jonathan Wilson--examine some of the major issues that the Dead Sea Scrolls have raised for the study of early Christianity. Were first-century Jews expecting a messiah? Were other messiahs mentioned in the scrolls? Were key early Christian symbols also found in the Judaism of Qumran? Did the Jews of Jesus's day believe in salvation by works? In the Holy Spirit? How did the New Testament authors think about inspired interpretation? These cutting-edge articles explore the impact of the Scrolls on Christianity, delving deeper than most surveys on the Dead Sea Scrolls.\nJohn J. Collins (Ph.D., Harvard University) is Holmes Professor of Old Testament Criticism and Interpretation at Yale Divinity School. He has authored or edited thirty books, including Introduction to the Hebrew Bible, Daniel (Hermeneia), and The Scepter and the Star: The Messiahs of the Dead Sea Scrolls and Other Ancient Literature. He has served as president of the Catholic Biblical Association, president of the Society of Biblical Literature, and editor of the Journal of Biblical Literature.\nCraig A. Evans (Ph.D., Claremont Graduate University) is Payzant Distinguished Professor of New Testament Studies at Acadia Divinity College and is the author or editor of more than thirty books, including Mark, vol. 2 (Word Biblical Commentary), Jesus and His Contemporaries, and Noncanonical Writings and the New Testament.\nDead Sea Scrolls and the Christian Faith",

        "raw_content": "Hey. I\u2019m Charlie. One of the proudest moments in my life was during a card game called \u201cImagine If\u201d where I was metaphorically likened to William Shatner\u2019s Kidney Stone by every single participant. While it may not literally be the most flattering comparison, to me it meant success. That I was successful in living one core tenet that had always shaped my personal philosophy:\nThis quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson lives on in Chadwick Optical. Most businesses promote themselves on one of three things: quality, price, or speed. From there, it\u2019s a matter of screaming \u201cME TOO!\u201d louder than all the other companies in that box. Like densely packed puppies fighting, climbing and clawing to get the attention of the person peeking in.\nChadwick Optical gave up that game a long time ago, and decided there were too many puppies in each of those boxes. And those puppies were cuter, more eager, and more energetic to tirelessly jump on each other to impress passers by.\nSo we got in a new box. A box based on creativity and a tireless drive to find solutions. A box where underserved demographics could come with their unique needs and be served. And you know what we found? There are so many patients in this box! So many patients that have been left behind by the mantras of quality, price, and speed. So many patients that can be served through creativity and a tireless drive to find solutions. Through this journey, we have identified three principles that serve as the backbone of Chadwick Optical.\nUnfortunately, in a quest to meet customer service metric goals, customer service often turns into giving the person who screams the loudest whatever it is that they\u2019re screaming about. Yeah\u2026we don\u2019t do it that way. We see our customers as partners in the drive to find solutions. We are on the same team with a mutual mission to do right by your patients.\nChadwick seeks to fill the gaps in care between the various healthcare professions. We seek to provide tools and education that take valuable information from the doldrums of scientific journals, and share it in a digestible format with the healthcare professionals who can use that information.\nIn improv theatre, saying \u201cNo\u201d is a no-no. It ends the game. There\u2019s nothing to build on with a No. In improv, you always say YES! Much of what we do is improvisational. So we never say No\u2026to eyeglass questions. We probably can\u2019t help with that growth on your nose. We say \u201cYES, let\u2019s figure out how.\u201d And by starting with YES, we\u2019ve come up with some amazing solutions that you\u2019ll find all over our website. And if you have a situation where you\u2019re encountering NO in every direction you turn, give us a call. Let\u2019s figure out how.\nCharlie Saccarelli, ABOM aka Optical Nerd\nYour Friendly Neighborhood Optical Nerd\nCharlie Saccarelli, ABOM\nDaring Man of Vision",

It\u2019s an excellent 45mins \u2013 1hour walk that\u2019s very accessible and takes you right along the base of the striking North face of the mountain. The views west across Sligo Bay and northwards towards Slieve League in Donegal are stunning.\nThere are several myths and legends associated with Benbulben, and one of the most famous of these being The Boar of Benbulben. Legend has it that King Cormac, the High King of Ireland, had betrothed this daughter Grainne to the warrior Fionn Mac Cumhaill (Finn McCool). However, rather than marry the aging McCool, the rebellious Grainne elopes with the young Fianna warrior Diarmuid Ua Duibhne.\nThe enraged Fionn pursues the couple the length and breadth of Ireland and catches up with Diarmuid on the slopes of Benbulben where he tricks him into fighting an enchanted wild boar. After a fierce and drawn out battle Diarmuid manages to slay the boar with his sword but not before the beast was able to pierce his heart with its tusk. The dying Diarmuid asks Fionn to bring him water from a nearby holy well which he says will save his live. Fionn brings him the water but then opens his hands to let it trickle out between his fingers.\nOne version of the story has it that Fionn cut Diarmuid\u2019s head off and when he showed it to Grainne she died on the spot from grief. The couple are said to be buried in a cave that now bares their name on the Dartry mountain range, not far from the slopes of Benbulben.",

The film follows a group of German schoolboys, talked into enlisting at the beginning of World War 1 by their jingoistic teacher. The story is told entirely through the experiences of the young German recruits and highlights the tragedy of war through the eyes of individuals. As the boys witness death and mutilation all around them, any preconceptions about \"the enemy\" and the \"rights and wrongs\" of the conflict disappear, leaving them angry and bewildered. This is highlighted in the scene where Paul mortally wounds a French soldier and then weeps bitterly as he fights to save his life while trapped in a shell crater with the body. The film is not about heroism but about drudgery and futility and the gulf between the concept of war and the actuality.\nWatch All Quiet on the Western Front Full Length Movie:\nAll Quiet on the Western Front Trailers & Backup versions - If the movie above isnt working, try these possible backup versions until this page is updated:",

By the turn of the century, this small club seems to have petered out and it was not until 1936 that boating was resurrected in the form of the AA Sailing Club. The club managed to purchase 5 twelve foot \u2018Sunburn\u2019 dinghies, as illustrated in the AA Journal below and which were moored at at Burnham on Crouch, Essex.\nThe Club was also affiliated to the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, whose modernist clubhouse by Joseph Emberton would have just been relatively recently completed.\nIt seems that the AA Sailing Club was also at the centre of the AA\u2019s social scene and organised a series of high-profile dances, including one held at Whistler\u2019s house on Cheyne\u2019 Walk\u2026\nNotable amongst the names of the organisers is that of Katharine Scott who, a year or so earlier, had showed at the Sailing Club AGM a film journal of her 24 day voyage between Glasgow and Kotka, Finland, working on-board a 4 masted barque!\nAfter the war, however, the home of the AA\u2019s sailing shifted to Hammersmith, where Oscar Gammans reports that the AA moored two \u2018Firefly\u2019 dinghies, \u2018F35\u2019 and \u2018F36\u2019, (presumably relating to the AA\u2019s Bedford Sq. address)\u2026",

        "title": "ICI - ICI Applauds Enactment of Tax Reform Package, June 2001",
        "raw_content": "ICI Applauds Enactment of Tax Reform Package\nWashington, DC, June 7, 2001 - The Investment Company Institute today applauded the enactment of the $1.35 trillion tax reconciliation package, the \"Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001,\" which contains several significant provisions to help Americans save for retirement and education.\n\"This legislation makes the nation\u2019s retirement plan system significantly more responsive to the retirement savings needs of working Americans and contains important provisions to encourage more Americans to save for a child\u2019s education,\" Institute President Matthew P. Fink said.\nRetirement and pension provisions contained in the tax package will raise the annual contribution limits on individual retirement plans, such as 401(k) plans and IRAs. For example:\nThe maximum contribution level for IRAs will be increased to $5,000 by 2008 from $2,000. Beginning next year, individual investors will be allowed to contribute $3,000 to IRAs. That limit will rise to $4,000 in 2005 through 2007.\nThe maximum investment levels for 401(k), 403(b), and 457 plans will be increased in stages to $15,000 from $10,500. The contribution limits will be increased to $11,000 next year, $12,000 in 2003, $13,000 in 2004, $14,000 in 2005, and $15,000 in 2006.\nThe bill makes it easier for employees to \"roll over\" pension savings to another plan when they change jobs.\nThe bill provides catch-up opportunities for individuals 50 years and older to help them save for retirement later in their working lives.\n\"This legislation would not have passed but for the leadership and determination of Sens. Charles Grassley (R-IA) and Max Baucus (D-MT) and Reps. Rob Portman (R-OH) and Ben Cardin (D-MD),\" Fink said.\nEducation provisions in the legislation will permit greater contributions to education IRAs and provide new incentives for families to participate in other college savings plans. Specifically:\nThe maximum annual investment levels for education IRAs will be increased to $2,000 from $500 annually beginning in 2002. Also, tax-free withdrawals will be allowed not only for college but also for elementary and secondary schooling.\nThe bill allows tax-free distributions from \"Section 529\" plans, which permit parents or grandparents to save for college expenses in investment accounts. Previously, withdrawals from these accounts were taxed at the child's tax rate. In another change, benefactors now will be able to move their 529 investment from one state\u2019s plan to another, tax-free, once a year.\nThe Institute has long expressed support for congressional measures to provide Americans with opportunities to save for retirement and education. The vast majority of mutual fund shareholders say that saving for retirement and education is their primary financial goal. Recent Institute research shows that 42.5 million U.S. households owned IRAs last year, up from 34.7 million the year before. American workers also are increasingly taking advantage of 401(k) plans to build a foundation for their retirement security.\nScheduled Increases in 401(k), 403(b), 457 and IRA Contribution Limits\nYEAR 401(k) & 403(b) Plan Limit 457 PlanLimit IRALimit 401(k), 403(b) & 457 Catch-up IRA Catch-up\nCurrent $10,500 $8,500 $2,000\n2002 $11,000 $11,000 $3,000 $1,000 $500\n2006 $15,000 $15,000 $4,000 $5,000 $1,000\n2007 Indexed for inflationin $500 increments Indexed for inflationin $500 increments $4,000 Indexed for inflation in $500 increments $1,000 in later years, not indexed for inflation\n2009 Indexedfor inflationin $500 increments",

        "title": "Scottish Co-Production Network :: Event report: Learning through Stories - Tuesday 15th Nov, Dundee",
        "raw_content": "Learning through Stories: Tuesday 15th November, Tayside Deaf Hub, Dundee\nWhen people are involved in making decisions that affect them and their communities, it can have a lasting impact, on their lives and how wider communities engage in shaping public services. The Scottish Co-production Network has gathered a vast range of these co-production stories from across Scotland, and beyond. But how can we use these to help deepen our understanding of the impact of co-production, and share what works to support others to embed co-production in their approach?\nAs part of Co-production Week Scotland, the network\u2019s most recent learning event invited network members to explore what can be learned through stories of co-production. Network members came together in Dundee to share their own experiences, and to demonstrate some creative ways that people have come together to shape activities and support for their communities.\nThe event brought together around 50 participants to the Tayside Deaf Hub, a community facility run by local people which offers spaces for the activities run by the deaf and deafblind community in Dundee.\nThe event was opened by Olivia Hanley from Scottish Community Development Centre who welcome participants and invited them to start the day by meeting each other and talking about stories which have had an impact on them.\nThe first presentation was given by Ron Scrimgeour and Lizabeth Adam, members of the Deaflinks Board, a local organisation which evolved from direct demand from deaf and deafblind people for somewhere that truly met their needs and which involves them in all aspects of service planning and development. Deaflinks was set up by deaf people in January 2009 and is truly a deaf-led organisation. The vision of deaf and deafblind people in Tayside is to develop services, promote activities and learning that truly reflect the needs of sensory impaired people in the area that will empower them to become equal, independent and active members of the communities in which they live. Deaf Links have co-production embedded in everything they do. They work as equal partners with local deaf and deafblind people in developing and delivering services locally. Ron and Elizabeth told their own inspiring stories about life living with deafness/hearing difficulty, and how they grew the organisation from working with others who shared similar experiences. Ron talked about being listed as a \u2018service user\u2019, and how this made him and the other board members feel, and Elizabeth talked about how members of Deaflinks wanted to do something when they felt that services were out of date and didn\u2019t treat them like individuals. Both shared their views on co-production, from their experiences of being involved in the planning and services of the organisation.\n\u201cThe term doesn\u2019t always sum up the dynamic energy of what co-production is, but co-production works\u201d\n\u201cCo-production is often seen as a \u201cquirky 3rd sector thing, but it needs to move beyond that\u201d.\nSecond to speak were Louise Christie from Scottish Recovery Network and Ruth Brown from Dundee Voluntary Action. Louise and Ruth told their own stories of how they decided to work together on the Making Recovery Real project in Dundee. The project is a partnership involving local statutory and third sector partners and Scottish Recovery Network which is working to ensure that the voice of people with living with mental health problems is at the centre of the journey to transform mental health and support in Dundee. They do this by working with people to collect and share stories of lived experience and recovery to influence policy and practice and by creating more roles for people with lived experience in peer support, peer education and learning and in strategy development. Co-production is at the heart of this project as it is working with people to increase opportunities for people living with mental health problems to have both a say and role in the design and delivery of services and supports to improve mental health and wellbeing in Dundee. Louise and Ruth talked about how through Making Recovery Real they wanted to find ways to make use of the local networks and resources to support mental health in Dundee, and how they partners involved had a collective commitment to doing things differently which put lived experience at the heart.\n\u201cWe had a reflective start, which took time but was valuable for when we brought the groups together to identify priorities for the project\u201d.\n\u201cWe wanted a huge splash when we launched it so we brought together stories. The film had a huge impact and showed the power of sharing stories\u201d.\nAfter a chance to network over the break, participants heard personal experiences from Greenbuds, a project based Dundee Association for Mental Health, that encourages individuals to access outdoor activities to improve mental health and wellbeing. Participants are involved in all aspects of the project including planning, delivery, evaluation and development, and many of the group came along to the event and gave a joint input. Firstly Kevin shared a presentation about Greenbuds and the activities that they do, then Shona gave her personal story and shard the impact being involved in Greenbuds. Gordon then shared a poem about co-production from another member of the group, Tammy.\nThe group then facilitated an exercise where we used art and creative writing to share stories of co-production. Here are some of the pieces that were created, and some of the comments from participants at the event:\n.. the creative activities inspired me to think about approaching the next event I am involved in differently!\u201d\n\u201cthe most useful part of the event was the activity as it put me outside of my comfort zone\u201d\n\u201cbeing able to share stories and experiences with others who can help shift the balance of power\u201d\n\u201cBrilliant! Great people. A real buzz\u201d",

Mine is to build a replica of every aircraft that was stationed at the local air base, Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station. Research so far has been rather challenging. It's hard to figure out all the different wings, groups and squadrons that were stationed here. Even harder to find pictures of specific aircraft. I have emailed the base historian and am just waiting to hear back from them. So if anyone else has any goals please share!\nPosted by Bish on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 11:55 AM\nI have a couple of long term projects. My main one and probably the one i have the best chance of achieving, is to build a 72nd aircraft from each of the 37 military airfields in Norfolk. Another is to build every version of the 251 halftrack in 35th scale, all 63 of them. Not likely to do that. My third is one of every version of the Ju 87 in 72nd.\nPosted by Tojo72 on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 12:13 PM\nBuild my stash before I can't\nPosted by PFJN on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 12:15 PM\nI think my only real goals are along similar lines like Tojo's. Build what I have, and maybe complete some of the models that I have started.\nPosted by Gamera on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 12:17 PM\nYeah, ditto that.....\nI've been collecting most of the aircraft flown by the US, Japan, China, and the Commonwealth in the Pacific during the Second World War.\nNow I just have to get around to building them................\nPosted by route62 on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 12:32 PM\nmy goal is to expand my diorama abilities. Until recently I would just build kit after kit. I got to a point where there were not a lot of new skills to be gained. Dioramas have added a whole new set of challenges. Ground cover, figure painting, modeling buildings and non aircraft models like ground support vehicles.\nAlso with dios I can try things like battle damage, and opening up the aircraft to show detail like engines and gun bays. This allows me to learn about casting parts, printing decals, using random materials like popsicle sticks to simulate wood planks and sandpaper to simulate tarmac.\nPosted by armornut on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 1:14 PM\nDitto route62, DEFINITELY dios. I'm currently working on the Trumpeter Scud launcher complex, it has a very interesting Armenian \"digital\" camo,( 4 color no less), that I am trying to replicate. I have seen pictures on the web so it isn't something made up. Other goals are to improve my scratchbuilding capabilities, find PE for the Tamyia 1/12 scale Tyrell P34, ( 6 wheeled indy car), then ultimately have a space big enough to display what ever I finish. Most level surfaces in my house are catch alls or cat perches, I can do without the cats but the clutter is both our problems( my wife and I).\nA few of my future goals are too build every aircraft that VF-151, VF-143 and VF-84 had flown during their squadron history.\nMy immediate goal is to get back to the bench and finish some kits that I've started. Life has taken way too much of center stage lately.\nPosted by stikpusher on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 5:17 PM\nTwo main ones:\nfirst, to build all the types of vehicles we had in 1:35 that were used by my first line unit, a mech infantry battalion. I'm roughly 2/3rds of the way there.\ntwo, to build all the models in my stash... good luck on that...\nPosted by ManCityFan on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 5:31 PM\nRight now, improve all of my skills, which means trying new things with each build.\nI would also like to make a major dent in my current \"vintage\" stash so I can start getting some of the newer kits. The Mrs. wants to see the stash get lower before I get more. I \"only\" have to get about 20 built before I get the green light.\nMrStecks\nPosted by MrStecks on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 5:49 PM\nCool question. it's nice to see what goals other people have.\nMy first goal (and the main reason I returned to the hobby) is to build as accurate a representation as I can of the F-51 Mustang that Maj. Richard E. Steckel was flying when he was shot down over North Korea in May of 1952. He\u2019s still officially MIA. He was my dad\u2019s cousin. I have one more build (after the current one) and then I'll start working on it. It will of course be the Tamiya 1/32 Mustang.\nAfter that, I thought it would be a cool goal to build all of the Century fighters in 1/48 scale. As a child in the 60\u2019s I grew up with those being the planes I most admired and wanted to fly. My favorite being the F-104.\nOn the bench: Airfix 1/32 1910 B Type Omnibus\nIn the queue: Revel 1/48 B-25J Mitchell\nPosted by tankboy51 on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 7:29 PM\nThe one goal I ever had was to build a 1/350 scale resin kit of the U.S.S. San Juan, my dad's ship that he served on during WW II. I got that one done many years ago. I have no military service and my brother was a dentist in the Air Force. He has been building a bunch of tank kits recently, buts thats another story. Otherwise, I have just been building models of all types, the vast majority armor. No real goals with any of those, just what do I find fun and interesting to build.\nPosted by littletimmy on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 7:31 PM\nGoal #1 : build a 1/144 scale sub for each type VII sub that saw combat. ( roughly 760 of them.) I currently have 13 built so far.\nGoal #2 : Build a 1/72 scale escort carrier, (The U.S.S. Bouge to be specific,) Aircraft of the U.S.S. Bouge sank my favorite U- boat U-217 a type VII D minelayer. I currently have one TBF Avenger built in 1/72 scale so far. Dont know where I'm going to get a hull for this...\nI'm pretty sure these goals will keep me out of my wifes kitchen untill the year 3287.\nPosted by Keyda81 on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 7:47 PM\nWow, lots of responses! I've been researching for a while now, and have a pretty good list of aircraft. Now I just need to find photographs!\nTo begin with I was just going to build a model to represent each type of plane stationed at the base, but I decided to get a bit more specific. If I just built a model OOB with no special attachment to the base I would be blowing through kits left and right, lol. This way it is more of a challenge for me, and should keep me occupied for a lot longer.\nLove hearing all the goals you guys have, keep em' coming!\nPosted by BlackSheepTwoOneFour on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 7:54 PM\nI want to build a few aircraft that was stationed at Griffiss AFB in Rome, NY.\nYou name it, Delta Daggers/Darts, Sabre jets, B-52, etc...\nAs some of you know, I had a B-52 Stratofortress kit that came with Griffiss AFB markings that came up missing n my home. I have yet found it.\nOther goals is to actually finish or start my kits. I've picked up a few NATO Tiger Meet/Demo Team/Anniversary/Commemorative/Special markings decal sets as well.\nYou might find some aircraft with markings you're looking for as references.\nPosted by DasBeav on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 9:49 PM\nSimple goal for a simple mind. One of everything from WWII. 1/48th airplanes and 1/35th armor. And if I reach that goal, I will then blow them up like I did when I was a JD!!\nPosted by fox on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 10:36 PM\nStarted out in 1946 building whatever models my uncles brought for fun. Then realized that the ones my uncles had built were a lot better and wanted to do mine just as well. They were both in the Navy during WWII so they concentrated on ships but they built other genres too. I built anything they gave me and tried to improve my skills. That's what I still do. Anything I see that I find interesting I try. Favorites are WWI & WWII fighters and Sailing Ships. Figures are the only ones that I am not really good at but every once in a while I give one a try. My overall goal is to finish as much of the stash as I can before going to the great workbench in the sky. At the rate I'm going I'll be building and improving for the next 300 years (if I don't buy any more ).\nThanks to all the guys and gals on here that have helped me to improve my skills to the point where I win an award at shows once in a while. It's a great feeling.\nPosted by tigerman on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 11:12 PM\nI'd like to finish my first aircraft in over 20 years. I have a zero that needs the exterior painted. most of the construction is finished. I've added 7 A/C to my stash and dumped some of my armors.\nPosted by fermis on Tuesday, July 25, 2017 11:15 PM\nMy number one goal is to build the best model ever and be showered with riches and wenches!!!\nThe only real \"goal\" I ever set for myself was to take a first in every catagory I entered, 1 best of show and to get at least 1 first at Nationals. Having far exceeded that goal....I will admit, that the firsts in armor and figures was due to a lack of really good competition (but I'll take it!)...now, aside from \"I want one of these and one of those and 3 of these and 7 of those\"....the only goal I have is to make it to October, get the business closed down for winter and get my behind back to the bench, where it belongs!\nPosted by Jay Jay on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 10:16 AM\nGoal #1A To build just 1 kit that looks as good as Lawdog's\nGoal #1; Like Tankboy my goal is to build a 1/350 scale ship on which my Father served in WWII. It's been a struggle taking 1 1/2 years to even find which ship he was on, ( there where 4 ships named Houston ) Having discoverd that, actually finding enough data on this obscure ship so I can build it, then finding a kit that's even close. I am about 1/3 the way through it and I won't be satisfied until it looks like the real thing. ie. gun barrels should look like tubes ...all 64 of them. I just hope my eyesight holds up enough to do 1/350 PE . WOW that's tiny.\nGoal #2; To build all 4 of the 1/16 figure kits of the military men. I had 2 when I was a kid ( Navy and Marines )but haven't been able to find the kits. I think they where Aurora.\nGoal#3; To build all the kits in my stash...after all, that's why I bought them in the first place. But you guys constantly tempt me to go out and buy more stuff.\nFrom: Mid Michigan\nPosted by shamoo on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 2:13 PM\nI'm hoping at the minimum to do two different dioramas: a USAFE F-4e as flown by my father, and an F-105f Wild Weasel marked as the aircraft he rode the back seat for 100 missions over North Vietnam. I'd like to do a large scale battleship, aircraft carrier both with all the accessories, and a large scale sailing ship fully rigged.\nWildcatfan247\nPosted by Wildcatfan247 on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 3:36 PM\nMy goal right now is to build a 1969 Dart that looks just like my work buddies real one. I'm having a hard time finding a 340 motor and the dog dish hubcaps. Long term is just really improve all of my skills. I've already learned a lot, thanks to some of you guys on these boards and youtube.\nPosted by Don Stauffer on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 4:17 PM\nMy goal is to either finish each kit on my shelf of doom (the shelves of started kits) that I did not trash immediately on taking a break from them (Usually I do take breaks on some very involved kits- I always take breaks on sailing ships- they usually take at least a year, sometimes several) or decide I will never build a certain kit and trash it. My shelf(s) of doom are now full, and I refuse to put up any more shelves!\nOne of my great uncles was a mechanic in WWII. He w a s stationed in North Africa, Italy and Sicily I believe. So I am trying to do dioramas that might represent what he did. I don't have any records or pictures of him during the war, so I really don't know what it looked like. So I get to make it up.\n[quote user=\"littletimmy\"]\noal #2 : Build a 1/72 scale escort carrier, (The U.S.S. Bouge to be specific,) Aircraft of the U.S.S. Bouge sank my favorite U- boat U-217 a type VII D minelayer. I currently have one TBF Avenger built in 1/72 scale so far.

There is only 1 kit that I haven't finished. I landed up trashing it. I did buy the kit again, and plan on tackling it at some point now that I have a lot more knowledge on how to deal with it.\nI have a pretty good list of aircraft, I'm still not entirely sure I have all of them. No idea how long it will take the base to email me back.\nOn a side note, the plane that started my modeling obssession, the C-130, has left the Niagara Falls Air Reserve. The last plane left yesterday. It's sad, but upon reading an article earlier today I discovered they are going to put a 1980 model on static display at the base. I'm just hoping it will be in an area on the base where I can see it! They have a C-47, C-119, F-4, F-100, and F-101 on display there as well.\nPosted by Wilbur Wright on Thursday, July 27, 2017 7:17 PM\nI always finish what I have going. That said, Number one would be to build better display cases to protect the work. These models (mine and other forum members) are really works of art and need to be protected.\nI have large models in my small stash. The type that may take a year each to build. I would like to get to them.\n1) Revell Germany 1/72 B-36 (Now that my skill is at a much greater level than last time and better natural metal paints are available)\n2) Hobbyboss M1070 with the Black Dog figures\n3) Tamiya 1/32 F-15E Bunker Buster (maybe up next)\n4) Tamiya 1/32 F-14 Tomcat Black Knights\n5) Trumpeter 1/35 Leopold Rail Gun with double crew and workers (about 20 Figures)\nThe only model I have yet to complete is my 30-year-old 1/12th scale Tamiya F1 312T Niki Lauda, which I hope to get done as I have new decals and the decals are everything on this kit, as is gloss painting which I am getting much better at.\nThese are not quick builds. Lastly I am always looking, making a list as to where I could donate models if I ever had to move out of state. Local military museums (yes there are a couple) local library and Vets Clubs.",

        "raw_content": "Home | Wire | More Coercion Won't Make a Better World\nMore Coercion Won't Make a Better World\nIn following the daily news events both in the United States and around the rest of the world, it is easy to get lost in the detail and not step back once and awhile and remind ourselves what the really important issues are. Under the anxiety of a possible nuclear war in Korea, actual terrorist attacks in the Middle East and by seemingly \u201clone wolves\u201d in other countries, threats of trade wars, and polarizing trends in politics in many places, the real underlying issue is and remains, how should people live together?\nClearly people are not living as harmoniously, peacefully and prosperously as they could, and many of us believe they should. The question is, why? The sophisticates will say that life, politics, and local and global society are complex. It is just the way it is, and we have to just \u201cmuddle through\u201d on a daily basis as best we can. The dreamers of various sorts will point to racism, class conflict, gender wars, the one true religion, or the transcendent ideological purpose. If only their brand of salvation was established all the problems of the world would go away.\nAll of these conceptions of the solutions to our problems share one thing in common. They invariably involve someone in society imposing their vision and will on the rest of mankind. This is fairly obvious when we turn to the religious or ideological fanatic. Make the world follow my faith or my political utopia or my ideal of a \u201csocially just\u201d society, and then peace and happiness will reign with an end to all the strife dividing humanity.\nElement of Coercion in Proposals to Make a Better World\nHowever, listen to such people more carefully and you soon see the coercive aspect to their message. They will tell people how to live, how to work, how to interact with one another, and what shall be the social \u201cjust desserts\u201d to be ladled out to everyone in terms of social and economic status and position in society. They have a hierarchy of values based upon their beliefs about human beings and the world, and if you put them in charge, they will arrange that world to fit that vision.\nThis necessarily requires all of the rest of us to conform to and be confined within their notion of the proper, just, right, and ethical relationships and positions each of us should have in their better world. Since it is highly unlikely that, suddenly, everyone on the planet will hold the same values and beliefs of a right, just and good order of things in terms of everyone\u2019s proper and right place, then some will necessarily have to be coerced, will have to be forced through political power to live their lives as others think they should. The will and desires of some are to be imposed on many.\nBut we don\u2019t need to think of this only in terms of the religious fanatic in, say, the Middle East or the gender and \u201canti-racist\u201d warriors closer to home, who wish to make us live, interact, and think as they want us to. It is also exists in the mainstream arena of everyday politics where the \u201cgrand vision\u201d may not always be unfurled, but takes the form of tax policy, regulatory rules, and talk about \u201cmaking America great, again,\u201d through tariffs and other forms of trade restrictions.\nPoliticians run for office telling us that our everyday problems will be solved, if only they are put into elected office. They will give someone a subsidy, another a regulation that limits someone else\u2019s competitive opportunity, or some land-use rule that hampers how another person may or may not use his own property; or they will implement some income or wealth redistribution through the tax code that makes one person a bit more wealthy and someone else less so. The bags of tricks of the modern interventionist-welfare state often seem endless.\nBut these, too, require political means of coercion, that is, governmental use of force to influence and determine how people may play \u201cthe game\u201d of life on the social playing field and which outcomes various groups and individuals will be allowed to have under those in political authority, who not only claim to be the \u201cumpires\u201d but the determiners of the specific plays of the game as well.\nOnce politics enters into all this, either in an extreme or less extreme way, political power becomes the most important and contentious item for possession. Having control over it enables you to influence if not guide the resulting outcomes. If you and those with whom you form political coalitions do not have control over the reins of power, then someone else will have it who will use it in ways that serve their ideological or material purposes, with others being the losers.\nWe see this with Trump\u2019s trade wars: certain sectors of the American economy are to gain at the expense of many other consumers and producers at home and abroad. Or the tax code is used to benefit some people\u2019s economic activities and net profits and income, while at the same time disincentivizing and financially burdening others. Zoning and land-use regulations enable some property owners to make financial killings, while others are straightjacketed in their use of what they honestly own, and may see their land and property values stagnate or go down due to the regulatory power of government.\nCoercing Government the Source of Social Conflict\nThe list could go on and on. Politics becomes a battleground for control. If you and your allies do not have that control some else will, and your fate is in their hands. At the same time, government becomes not only an arena in which \u201ccronyist\u201d groups of every type fight to use that government for their own ends. The institutions of government also become a source of power, privilege and wealth for the politicians and bureaucrats who man the halls of government. Those in government have their own interests, as well, which they advance by working with and serving those interest groups who wish to eat at the political trough.\nThis is the nature of politics everywhere around the world. Sometimes it is more tyrannical and deadly, where speaking your mind or criticizing those in power can lead to arrest, imprisonment, torture and death. And resistance may bring about destructive civil wars. In the \u201cWest,\u201d where \u201cdemocracy\u201d prevails for the most part, it all seems so more civilized. Representatives are elected to political office, and everything is done, or presented as being done, by the procedures to be followed under a \u201crule of law.\u201d People may speak their mind for the most part, and write on almost any subject under the sun (within the increasingly tight constraints of ever-present \u201cpolitical correctness\u201d police).\nBut regardless of the institutional form of being either a political democracy or an authoritarian regime, in the modern world everything revolves around gaining and using the power of government to take advantage of others in various ways. Is it that surprising that the more everyday life and the implementation of grand visions of the world depend upon government action, that society appears to be increasingly polarized and deep into group-conflict?\nIs this the only way people can and should live? That is, by means of power, plunder, privilege, and political position? Is group conflict the only way the social and economic system can be arranged to serve humanity? The answer is, no! There is a better way. But it requires thinking about man, society and government is a radically different manner.\nA growing portion of humanity, including in the United States, seems to have lost sight of this alternative form of social existence. This alternative starts off by conceiving of human beings as individuals rather than as social, racial or gender collectives. It is the philosophy of individualism that declares that every human being has a right to his own life, his own liberty, and his honestly acquired property. It declares that very individual owns himself, he is not the property of any social collective, to which his owes his obedience and his sacrifice if an asserted higher good of the group requires or, indeed, demands it.\nIt also declares that all human relationships should be based on voluntary agreement and mutual consent. No one may be forced or compelled to interact with others against his will or wishes. Human cooperation is constructed on the basis of peaceful consent, and personal choice. Every individual may have his own notion or idea of a good life, a desirable hierarchy of values, a notion of what might bring about human happiness and meaningful fulfillment. But he may not impose it on others against their consent, and neither may any other person impose a different one on him.\nAnother way of expressing this is that the individual is an end in himself. He may associate with others and take advantage of the things they might do for him as means to his own desired ends, just as they may use him as means to their alternative ends or purposes. But, no one may be made a means to another\u2019s end without a free choice between them, at agreed upon terms of associative exchange and trade.\nThe social position and the relative income possessed and earned by each individual in such an institutional setting of human liberty reflects how well and to what extent each person has flourished by serving the ends of others as the means of advancing their own purposes and dreams.\nThis political, economic and social system goes under a variety of names: (classical) liberalism, the free market, or capitalism. These all connote this distinct and unique way for living under which people may not coerce or compel their neighbors to serve them or act in certain ways. Getting others to live and act differently than they currently are may only be attempted by reason, argument, persuasion and the example of one\u2019s own life.\nPart of this reasoning and persuading procedure are the interactions of people in the marketplace. If you want someone to supply a good or provide a wanted service, as the \u201cdemander\u201d of such things you can only get others to supply them through offering something in return and haggling over the terms under which it may be done. As the Scottish moral philosopher and economist, Adam Smith, explained nearly 250 years ago, one free person says to another, \u201cIf you do this for me, I will do this for you.\u201d\nEvery exchange in such a \u201csystem of natural liberty,\u201d as Adam Smith called it, harnesses the self-interest of every social participant in the service of others as the institutional means to get others to serve him. Self-interest is directed into the betterment of the \u201ccommon good,\u201d understood as the conditions of the individual members of society, rather than some collective \u201csocial good\u201d forcefully imposed on all, regardless of whether they share that belief or the terms insisted upon by the coercing commander.\nHow little it is fully understood and appreciated by many people that this peculiar system of interpersonal liberty has been the source of innovation, industry and the profit-making incentives to bring people\u2019s minds and actions to bear to think about how the human condition may be improved and bettered. Our standards of living, the quality of life, and the cultural opportunities and enjoyments of our world are all due to the extent to which this system of natural liberty has been implemented and be allowed to function independent and free from the compelling hand of government.\nThe ideal and the social policy of the free market, capitalist system is equal freedom for all and privilege and favors for none. Government protects each person\u2019s life, liberty and honestly acquired property, rather than violating them through its legitimized use of force to supply benefits to some at the expense of others who are less fortunate in grasping the necessary means to manipulate the political system for their alternative betterment.\nEqual individual rights before the law necessarily means that the social and material outcomes in society will not be equal. Each person has that honestly earned financial position that reflects the extent to which others have valued their services and for which they have paid what that person\u2019s services have seemed worth to them, and for which they have voluntarily exchanged some of their own income and wealth to obtain what any individual could do for them.\n\u201cGood causes,\u201d as judged by some, certainly may be and are pursued in this free society. But those who see these as good causes must persuade others to join them in voluntary charitable and benevolent efforts of time, work and money to try to achieve them, including the greater amelioration of the hardships and misfortunes that have befallen upon fellow human beings. How much better both ethically and pragmatically when this very voluntarist aspect to the solving of \u201csocial problems\u201d permits experimentation and competition to devise ways to handle them, in comparison to the monopolized and coercive means of government welfarism and redistribution!\nAt the same time, this principle of free choice and voluntarism under (classical) liberal capitalism diminishes, if not eliminates, the types of social antagonisms and political polarization so visible in modern society. No one is forced to follow or finance the dreams or desires of others. Each individual selects his own goals and purposes, with its own chosen hierarchy of things more or less important between which trade-offs and reasonable costs may be paid given what each considers it to be all worth to them.\nWhen thought about clearly and consistently, (classical) liberal capitalism enables a degree of peace, harmony and respectful tolerance of the choices and ways of honest living for everyone in society to which nothing else compares, especially when held up as an alternative to today\u2019s coerced collectivism practiced everywhere in the world, only to different degrees and forms.\nThis is the lost world of liberty that we never fully attained in the past, even in the heyday of nineteenth century laissez-faire when, in reality, the personal and economic freedoms of that earlier age were blended and combined, with noticeable elements of intervention, regulation and other types of political coercion, including human slavery and failures to establish full equality before the law for all.\nOriginally published by the Future of Freedom Foundation",

        "raw_content": "Theo: Too many still roofless while hurricane season looms\nPHILIPSBURG - Too many residents are still without roofs with the upcoming Atlantic Hurricane Season some 67 days away, said United Democrats leader Member of Parliament Theo Heyliger, as he called for speedier help for those who have applied to government for assistance.\n\u201cToo many people, including our seniors, have approached me about not being able to qualify for assistance from their own government. Some are told their roofs cannot be fixed because they get onderstand (welfare) and others because they get a small pension. This cannot continue,\u201d Heyliger said.\nHis proposal is for the criteria for repairs to focus on the extent of damage and to put keener attention to how small the financial assistance from government, or the pension senior citizens have worked for is, rather than writing people off because they have a small income.\nIt is time the criteria for assistance be reviewed to take into consideration the reality of the country and its residents. \u201cWe must look at what is feasible and really pay attention to who needs help. We cannot use a broad brush for everyone. The reality on St. Maarten is different for each person.\u201d\nMany of those petitioning government for help are without insurance and the financial means to do repairs themselves, he said. \u201cSome people did not put faith in insurance companies after the trials of Hurricane Luis 22 years ago, and those who did, are facing an uphill battle.\u201d\nInsurance aside, government has a role to take care of its people, he said. \u201cI am part of the current coalition, and as a MP I am calling on the minister in charge of the social development to really look at what our people are facing and assist them now before the season starts,\u201d Heyliger said.\n\u201cAll this time after Irma the sea of blue tarps on the island should have lessened. The way things are the blue on land is rivalling that of the sea that surrounds us. It is difficult to see and hear the pleas of the St. Maarten people and to have tell them to wait and wait,\u201d Heyliger said.\nTackling poverty from the foundation of damaged houses to parents unable to pay school fees is a major concern in rebuilding St. Maarten, and more so in the economic recovery of the country, he said. \u201cThis is why we cannot afford to bypass anyone.\u201d\nCaribbeanHurricane seasonRegionSt MaartenTheo Heyliger",

For Mary Lou Aleskie, executive director of New Haven\u2019s International Festival of Arts & Ideas\u2014who officially announced this year\u2019s festival schedule yesterday during a reception at The Study at Yale\u2014the answer is \u201cwhen we can take what\u2019s world-class about New Haven and connect it to the work of world-class visitors.\u201d\nThe 19th annual IFAI, held June 14 through 28 this year, applies this approach to the theme of \u201cTransformation & Tradition.\u201d Says festival Director of Programming Cathy Edwards, \u201cMany of our cornerstone events this year involve an expansive look at traditional cultural forms. They\u2019re works that are heavily informed by love for a particular tradition or story of origin\u2014but that just becomes fodder for an imaginative journey or reinvention that we call \u2018transformation.\u2019\u201d\nThese performances rarely stand alone: \u201cWe\u2019re always looking to string the beads,\u201d Aleskie says. One of this year\u2019s strings is a quintet of events that examines the evolution of southern U.S. culture through dance, music and cuisine. From June 18 through 21 at Yale\u2019s University Theatre, Reggie Wilson\u2019s Fist and Heel Performance Group\u2014a dance company that combines its roots in blues, slave and spiritual cultures with freestyle, disco and classically inspired moves\u2014will present Moses(es). It\u2019s an exploration of the Exodus story inspired, in part, by renowned Alabama-born folklorist Zora Neale Hurston\u2019s work, Moses, Man of God. Hurston is also the focus of one of the festival\u2019s many events in its \u201cIdeas\u201d series, a June 19 panel discussion anchored by Wilson and library curator Melissa Barton at Yale\u2019s Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, where many of Hurston\u2019s manuscripts, notes and letters are housed.\nRelated events include a concert by Detroit-born jazz violinist Regina Carter, a MacArthur Fellow whose work has traced the African roots of the violin. But in her June 17 concert at Sprague Hall, she\u2019ll be giving a contemporary spin to Cajun fiddle music through early gospel and work songs that were important to her paternal grandfather, a coal miner in Alabama. Earlier that day, she\u2019ll helm an Ideas discussion at the Yale Center for British Art on cultural heritage and improvisation. Her appearance will be followed on June 18, again at the British Art Center, with an Ideas talk by culinary historian Michael W. Twitty who will trace his own Southern \u201cfoodie\u201d heritage back to his family\u2019s origins in West and Central Africa.\nAleskie hopes that a lineup such as this will inspire festival attendees to examine their own roots and traditions. \u201cThe thing I\u2019m most excited about with this festival,\u201d she says, \u201cis that as big as it is, it\u2019s impact can also be intimate and personal.\u201d\nOther keynote events include:\n\u2022 The festival\u2019s customary series of free concerts on the New Haven Green promises a \u201crootsapalooza,\u201d featuring artists such as 2014 Grammy Award-winning rhythm-and-blues artists Lalah Hathaway (daughter of legendary soul singer Donny Hathaway) and Ruben Studdard, contemporary country singer-songwriter Brandy Clark, New Orleans combo Nation Beat and 2014 Grammy-winning Latin American ensemble La Santa Cecilia. On June 15, Martha Redbone\u2014an Appalachian folk musician of Choctaw, Cherokee and African descent\u2014spotlights her 2012 album The Garden of Love, a musical transformation of the poems of William Blake, and acclaimed jazz singer Dianne Reeves joins the New Haven Symphony Orchestra on June 21 for a night of standards by George Gershwin and Cole Porter. Also planned are a couple of well-loved community traditions: the presentation of the State of Connecticut Governor\u2019s Arts Awards June 14 and, on June 21, preceding Ms. Reeves, an all-musicians \u201cplay-in\u201d with members of the NHSO and Music Haven.\n\u2022 In Lemon Andersen\u2019s County of Kings, poetry is transformed from a formal literary exercise into a powerful contemporary force for personal redemption and cultural reclamation. Andersen, a Brooklyn, NY, native of Puerto Rican and Norwegian-American parentage, endured a childhood blighted by the heroin abuse and AIDS-related deaths of his parents and a young adulthood spent in and out of prison. His rollicking, uplifting, hip hop-inflected, slam-poetry-styled autobiography\u2014which he\u2019ll perform at Yale Repertory Theatre June 14 and 15\u2014chronicles how Andersen was saved by his exposure to, and enthusiasm for, the arts. He\u2019s since become well-known for his work in Russell Simmons\u2019s Def Poetry Jam on Broadway (for which he won a Tony Award) and the Spike Lee film Inside Man (with Denzel Washington).\n\u2022 A far more absurd kind of linguistic \u201cpoetry,\u201d which The New York Times described as a \u201cLewis Carroll-styled stately nonsense verse,\u201d is created in Arguendo by the New York-based theater ensemble Elevator Repair Service, at Yale Rep June 18 through 22. It centers around the 1991 First Amendment U.S. Supreme Court case Barnes v. Glen Theater, Inc., brought by two businesses employing erotic dancers in Indiana. \u201cThe entire script is basically a transcript of the court\u2019s oral argument about what constitutes art and free speech,\u201d says Edwards. Arguendo will cap its run with the Ideas discussion panel \u201cSpeech: The First Amendment in the Spotlight,\u201d June 22 at Yale University Art Gallery. Participants include Yale Law School Dean and First Amendment scholar Robert Post, as well as Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Linda Greenhouse and Slate Senior Editor Emily Bazelon, both Supreme Court experts.\n\u2022 Global xenophobia and its local consequences are examined\u2014in both music and prose\u2014in The Events, a U.S. premiere by Scottish playwright David Grieg, which plays Yale Rep June 24 through 28. Set in the aftermath of a violent community tragedy, the play grapples with universal issues of tolerance, obsession and forgiveness. It debuted last summer at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, earning the prestigious Carol Tambor Best of Edinburgh Award and a Best Theatre Production of 2013 accolade from The Guardian. Each of its six festival performances will feature a different New Haven choir\u2014acting as the play\u2019s Greek chorus\u2014and will be followed by an audience conversation with local spiritual leaders.\nThe IFAI\u2019s two-week itinerary also includes performances by contemporary circus troupes (including Montreal\u2019s 7 doigts de la main [\u201c7 fingers\u201d], which inspired much awe from the stage of the Shubert Theater during last year\u2019s fest, and France\u2019s Compagnie Barolosolo), walking and bicycle tours, films from the Yale Summer Film Institute and \u201cfoodie\u201d experiences at local restaurants. While the festival has gone through plenty of its own transformations in 19 years, it seems to have found a recipe for success\u2014last fall, the directors announced that 2013\u2019s fest had had an economic impact of $34.3 million (the largest in its history) and in January, CNN.com named it the top \u201csomething fun to do in Connecticut\u201d for 2014.\nOne crucial tradition has remained the same since its inception: over 80 percent of programming is free of charge, so anybody can charge ahead freely come June 14.\nJune 14-28, 2014, in venues around New Haven\nWritten by Patricia Grandjean.

        "raw_content": "Opinion: Christmas is a celebration of love and sharing \u2013 By JOHN DAMIAN ADIZIE\nChristmas is one peculiar celebration that means different thing to different people. For some people, Christmas is a season of decoration and fashions, whereas others see Christmas as a period of travelling and picnic. Some people see the Christmas tree as the essence of Christmas, while for so many others the Christmas crib is what Christmas is all about. Christmas tree Majority of people celebrate Christmas with the Carol of nine lessons while others travel to different parts of world, including Bethlehem of Judea, where our Lord Jesus Christ was born, to observe their Christmas celebration. These are just few interpretations of what Christmas is all about; am sure you may have your own interpretation. I want to share with you my dear reader what I consider as the essence of Christmas.Christmas is a Celebration of Love: At Christmas we are not just celebration thebirth of the child Jesus. Essentially we are celebrating the Love of God the Father. As St.\nJohn rightly wrote, \u201cFor God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life\u201d(John 3:16). God the Father is the Lover while our Lord Jesus Christ is the BelovedSon of God the Father. Our Lord Jesus Christ is God\u2019s most precious gift to the world. At Christmas we are meant to share in this love of God. We are also called to sharethis love with our fellow human beings. St. John invites us to love one another, especially during this Christmas season: \u201d Beloved, let us love one another, becauselove is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 Whoeverdoes not love does not know God, for God is love.\u201d (1 John 4:7-8). Love istherefore the essence of Christmas. Hence, Christmas celebration is love in action! Christmas is a Celebration of Sharing:\nApart from love Christmas is all aboutsharing. In the gospel of Luke 1:39-45, When the Angel told Mary that her cousinSister, Elizabeth has conceived, Mary set out and went with haste to Judean toshare her testimony with her sister, As soon as she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth, the child leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled withthe Holy Spirit 42 and exclaimed with a loud cry, \u201cBlessed are you among women,and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And why has this happened to me, that themother of my Lord comes to me? For as soon as I heard the sound of your greeting, the child in my womb leaped for joy. And blessed is she who believed that there would be[e] a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord.\u201dChristmas is not just a time to share our testimonies it is also a time to share ourfood with the hungry. A time to visit the orphans, the prisoners, the refugees andthe Internally Displaced Persons (IDP).\nChristmas is a Celebration of Joy: As soon as our Lord Jesus Christ was born, anangel of the Lord appeared to a group of Shepherd and said to them, \u201cDo not beafraid; for see\u2014I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord.\u201d The Christmas News is the best news on earth. It is the most joyful news the world hasever received. This joy is still fresh even in our world today. Christmas season remains the most joyful season. It is indeed a period of joyful celebration. People travel from far and near to celebrate with their loved ones during Christmas. Christmas is the Birth of Peace: At Christmas we are celebrating the birth of thePrince of Peace.\nThe prophet Isaiah 6:9 declares, \u201cFor unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his nameshall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father,The Prince of Peace.\u201d Our Lord Jesus Christ is indeed the prince of peace and theLord of lords. He is the great One, the Son of the Most High God and the King of kings (Luke 1:32-33). At this Christmas season we need the Prince of peace in our families, we need himin our school and business centers, we need him in our marital life; we need him inour vocation, we need him in our country; we need him in all our journeys. In the book of Revelation 3:20, our Lord Jesus Christ assures us, \u201cBehold, I standat the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with me.\u201d Child of God, as you open thedoor of your heart, Jesus will surely come in.\nHe will restore peace in your life andin your family. And the joy and peace of Christmas remain with you both now and forever more! Happy Christmas from Rev. Fr. John Damian Adizie of the Holy Spirit, OCD Fr.

        "raw_content": "Opinion: How Nigeria is keeping children in school one meal at a time \u2013 By ABDULHASSAN RABIU\nschool children enjoying the fg feeding programme\nTo realize the value of one meal, as the beneficiaries of a home-grown school feeding programme.\nIf you are the most populated country in Africa, also with the largest economy on the continent but with the dark stain of having the highest number of out-of-school children in the world, how do you go about changing that? That was the situation Nigeria found herself in a few years ago, with as many as 10 million children of school age deprived of seeing the four corners of a classroom. The conundrum was further compounded by malnutrition pervasive in children from low-income backgrounds, ultimately affecting their ability to stay in school when enrolled.\nA bouquet of policies fashioned to rectify that alarming reality included an effective and yet often overlooked input \u2013 food. Food is one of the most basic of human needs, and even more important for children, especially during school hours. According to experts in child development, in order to achieve satisfactory physical and mental growth, school children require larger amounts of nutrients per unit of body weight than adults. Therefore, when children are fed foods which contain inadequate amounts of nutrients, they may fail to grow and develop adequately.\nResearch also showed that 42 percent of school children and 2.5 million Nigerian children under age 5 suffered from malnutrition and about half a million dying from it. This informed the decision of the Muhammadu Buhari administration to implement the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme as a way of killing many birds with one stone \u2013 increase primary school enrollment, combat malnutrition in school children, and stimulate economic productivity and growth, especially in our rural communities. Because healthy and nourished children learn and perform better, the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme is indirectly building human capacity that is bound to have a ripple effect in the economy.\nAs parts of efforts to tackle hunger and poverty, the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme was launched to support states to collectively feed over 24 million school children making it the largest school feeding program ever to be introduced in Africa. In a two-pronged approach to strengthen the food and agricultural eco system and tackle child malnutrition, the feeding programme provides food for the children procured from local farmers, thereby creating jobs in catering and food processing.\nThe main objective of the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme is to provide one nutritious, balanced meal each school day to 5.5 million pupils in classes 1 to 3 in public primary schools. The end goal of this is to increase enrolment rates by mopping up the huge numbers of out-of-school children in Nigeria while tackling early year malnutrition. In addition, this programme develops a value chain by creating jobs for the cooks and ensuring a sustainable income for small holder farmers, thereby engendering a ripple effect in the rural economy.\nBy all standards the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme has been a huge success. Initially designed to target 5.5 million school children, the programme has exceeded its target by 50 percent as of June 2018. Currently 8,596,340 are being fed in 24 states of the federation, covering 47,299 schools. The impact on school enrolment is also clear. Public school enrolment has increased considerably across the country since the school feeding programme started. Stakeholders in education have affirmed an influx of school children from private schools into the public schools as the improved public-school system boosts parents\u2019 confidence. A continuous improvement in school enrollment has been recorded in Oyo, Ogun, Osun, with South Eastern states recording an 18.3 percent increase in the first quarter of 2018. This increase in public school enrolment has led to an increase in teacher employment.\nNot only are children being enrolled in school like never before, the promise of delicious, nutritious meals as guaranteed under the school feeding programme is keeping them there. Available data shows that the rate of completion of primary school nationwide increased from 36 percent in 2007 to 63 percent last year. In addition, the programme creates jobs and profits for the wide range of stakeholders involved in getting the food from farm to the children\u2019s table. For example, 90,670 cooks have been gainfully employed with the attendant positive ripple effect on farmers supplying farm produce to the cooks.\nThis trend cuts across all the 24 states where the tentacles of the programme have so far reached. In Akwa Ibom, 80 percent of primary schools are benefitting from the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme program with over 2,700 food vendors engaged. Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State recently testified of how no fewer than 122,000 children are feeding daily under the school feeding programme, with 1,040 caterers deployed to 1,060 schools across the 21 local government areas of the state.\nCentral to the success of this programme is the multi-layer and inclusive implementation strategy adopted by the Federal Government through the National Social Investment Programme office. Under the arrangement, state governments are tasked with the responsibility of identifying the local meals, cooks, and other aggregators while funding is provided by the federal government. This way state governments play an active role and are eager to guarantee the success of the programme in their respective domains.\nAdditionally, the programme is monitored by a coalition of government agencies, civil society organizations and the public. The nutritional content of meals served to the schoolchildren all across the country is monitored by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture. The public is also encouraged to give feedback to the office in charge of the programme implementation via mobile phones and social media. This has ensured that all stakeholders under the programme are kept on their toes for efficient service delivery.\nIn a bid to ensure transparency and growth, the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme introduced the #TrackWithUs where well-meaning citizens can report any malpractice going on in the system. The #TrackWithUs campaign has helped monitor and supervise school feeding programme activities on schools. Recently several cooks were laid off in River sate for serving biscuits in the place of proper meals to the school kids.\nUltimately, testimonies abound from the pupils who are direct beneficiaries of the school feeding programme, to their parents whose burdens have become lighter, to cooks who have been gainfully engaged, to farmers who now have consistent income from sale of their produce and many others involved in the value chain of the programme. The success of this programme has once again proved that local solutions abound to the myriad of problems facing Nigeria especially when all hands are on deck with a sense of unity to achieve a common purpose.\nRabiu wrote from Abuja.

        "raw_content": "I love looking at old photos especially photos with people in. It doesn't matter if they are family photos, people I don't know or famous people. I will look at them all - anything from a different era will do. They don't even have to be that ancient - pictures from the 1990s are interesting. I love seeing what was worn in the pictures and scanning all the background details like the car in the background or ornaments on a shelf. (I always make sure I photograph my cars now, something I wish I had done with my first car - a black mini and my trusted Fiat Uno that I drove for years!).\nWhich brings me onto the term \"vintage clothing\". The wiki definition of vintage clothing is anything from the 1920s to the 1980s. I have also seen it defined as anything over at least 15 years old. Anything before the 1920s is antique clothing.\nWith that definition in mind I thought I would share some of the \"vintage clothing\" that I have knocking around. There won't be many posts on this as my bag of vintage clothing is very small. It didn't occur to me to keep a larger selection of clothing to look back on in the future. It is weird to think that some of these items are considered vintage, especially things like T shirts that I knocked about in on the beach.\nFirst up is something my mum wore.\nThis is a floor length corduroy skirt and a purple top dating from the early 1970s. I don't know what material the top is but it is very crinkly and stretchy. The skirt doesn't have a label (except for a dry clean only one) and the top is from Etam. I remember shopping at Etam. Thanks to wikipedia I now know that this shop disappeared from the High Street in August 2005 (see wikipedia link). It used to be Tammy Girl and then Tammy. I must admit I thought Etam had morphed into River Island. Apparently not. River Island used to be Chelsea Girl until 1988 (see wikipedia link). I do remember Chelsea Girl and the switchover to River Island, often described as a more upmarket Chelsea Girl.\nI remember my mum wearing this to dinner parties in the 1970s. She must have been teeny - I can't get the skirt past my thighs now. I did wear this outfit to two fancy dress parties in the 1990s and even then I was struggling to get into it. I remember at the second party there were other people wearing Abigail's Party type flared jumpsuits as 1970s clothing, an obvious pastiche of that style. I had to explain that these were actual 1970s clothes in case people thought I wasn't dressing up!\nOn to other news. I bought a wonderful sewing book by Alison Smith:\nI used Karen's method for book buying (from Did You Make That) to good effect. I browsed the book in my local store where the cover price was \u00a325 and then ordered it from Amazon for \u00a314.39. I did buy the Vogue book of sewing a couple of months back but I felt I needed a few more visual step by step guides like this:\nI have developed a fondness for burda magazine patterns (I am working on a burda top at the moment) but the instructions are atrocious. I want to make a skirt from the magazine with pockets and I didn't want to start doing something like that without more visual aids so I decided to splash out on the book. I can't wait to begin using the book in practice!",

        "raw_content": "Windrush \u2013 We Need Truth and Justice Now\nYou are here: Home / News / Articles / Windrush \u2013 We Need Truth and Justice Now\nEach week sees more horrifying revelations come to light when it comes to the Windrush scandal and the government\u2019s appalling treatment of its victims.\nIn one disgraceful example, the Home Secretary Sajid Javid confirmed to the Home Affairs Select Committee on November 12 that eight more members of the Windrush generation who may have been wrongly deported have been found to have died, taking the total to at least 11.\nHe has also confirmed that officials had been unable to contact many of those thought to have been caught up in the Windrush scandal, meaning that the number who have died could turn out to be higher still.\nHe said there were 83 cases in which it had been confirmed people were wrongfully deported and there may be a further 81. Of the 81 cases seen as less clear-cut, officials have contacted 75, leaving six to be reached \u2013 three of whom are believed to have died.\nIn the former cases, the Home Office has made contact with 42 affected people, while a further 33 have proven uncontactable, of whom eight have died.\nIt was also reported that the tally of wrongful deportations and detained the government has been giving is likely to rise from this figure of 164, as a number of affected people have been misclassified as a \u201ccriminal case type.\u201d This meant they were excluded from this figure, which will now be revised.\nThe reason for this is that the government has conducted an official review of 11,800 cases of Caribbean-born people who have been detained or removed since 2002 to assess how many might have been mistakenly targeted despite being here legally and in August decided to exclude anyone with a criminal conviction. But now the Home Office has said its \u201ccriminal case type\u201d category wrongly included people\nwho had \u201ccommitted only a minor offence/s or have been acquitted or not prosecuted.\u201d\nAll these revelations came shortly after we found out that citizens from an astounding 64 countries have been referred to its Windrush taskforce.\nSince September, 66 per cent of people granted status after being referred to the taskforce were from the Caribbean islands of Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, and Grenada, with 30 per cent from \u201cother nationalities.\u201d These included people from European countries including France and Germany and Commonwealth countries such as Nigeria and Australia.\nAs well as being a further indication of the extent of the scandal, these figures also clearly illustrate the important point that too often the public are given the impression this scandal only affects people from the Caribbean, when it is in fact the whole Commonwealth and beyond.\nAnd now, this week, we have seen Windrush victims and campaigners criticise the consultation phase of the government\u2019s proposed compensation scheme, saying it is too long and complex, plus warn not enough is being done to advertise it.\nOne victim of the scandal, told The Guardian that filling in the form is \u201cvery stressful\u201d and \u201cputs\nyou off writing the form.\u201d\nAnother, aged 54, said \u201cthe wording\u2026 didn\u2019t make it\u2026 easy for people.\u201d\nIn response to these developments, Callton Young, a Labour councillor and of the Croydon African Caribbean Family Organisation, said \u201cI found the online Windrush compensation consultation form to be a technical barrier to justice for victims of the hostile environment\u201d adding \u201cit is too long and complicated and crashed before I could finish completing it.\u201d\nChloe Robinson of Praxis, a charity that helps vulnerable immigrants, added that the consultation \u201chasn\u2019t been properly advertised \u2026 [and] I feel like there\u2019s been a very low response.\u201d\nThere is also frustration concerning how long it is taking to pay compensation, with Satbir Singh, of the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, saying many \u201care at risk of destitution.\u201d\nFor this very reason, Labour has been demanding a hardship scheme for months, and yet still the government refuses to listen to victims or campaigners.\nThese latest revelations - and indeed the piecemeal nature of updates we are getting - show that the government is still simply not taking the Windrush scandal and its aftermath seriously enough.\nWe also need to be clear in saying that deaths of deported British citizens and deportations for convictions that never existed all point to the real evils of the government\u2019s failed hostile environment policy on immigration. As part of this, we must never forget that the \u2018hostile environment\u2019 was championed by the current Prime Minister during her six-years as Home Secretary.\nThe reality is that we still do not know the true scale of the Windrush Generation scandal, including how many people were deported and imprisoned. It\u2019s time for the government to come forward with all the truth, for a proper, decent compensation scheme, and justice for all the victims.",

Therefore, NMDARs are now recognized to play a key role in the development of many diseases associated with injuries to the central nervous system (CNS). However, it remains a mystery how NMDAR activity is recruited in the cellular processes leading to excitotoxicity and how NMDAR activity can be controlled at a physiological level. The sodium ion (Na(+)) is the major cation in extracellular space. With its entry into the cell, Na(+) can act as a critical intracellular second messenger that regulates many cellular functions. Recent data have shown that intracellular Na(+) can be an important signaling factor underlying the up-regulation of NMDARs. While Ca(2+) influx during the activation of NMDARs down-regulates NMDAR activity, Na(+) influx provides an essential positive feedback mechanism to overcome Ca(2+)-induced inhibition and thereby potentiate both NMDAR activity and inward Ca(2+) flow. Extensive investigations have been conducted to clarify mechanisms underlying Ca(2+)-mediated signaling. This review focuses on the roles of Na(+) in the regulation of Ca(2+)-mediated NMDAR signaling and toxicity.\nFSU_pmch_21243124 (IID), 10.4236/health.2010.21002 (DOI), PMC3020095 (PMCID), 21243124 (RID), 21243124 (EID)\nR01 NS053567, R01 NS053567-04\nThis NIH-funded author manuscript originally appeared in PubMed Central at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3020095.\niss. 1, vol. 2\nYu, X. -M., Groveman, B.

        "raw_content": "22 THe big issue 30 Aug \u2013 12 sep 2013 moments. Both women had played for Norway: one played in Rio in 2010, the other in Paris in 2011. Their lives were so transformed by this involvement that they returned to support the new players and, like many of us, receive their annual hit of HWC inspiration. Other former players also followed and contributed to the event live, thanks to the wonders of social media. A member of Australia\u2019s 2011 Street Socceroos team, Mustafa (\u2018Musti\u2019), sent Facebook messages of support, crediting the confidence he gained from his HWC experience with helping him develop leadership skills. Cindy, who was the sole female Street Socceroo in Paris in 2011, celebrated her birthday in Australia while this year\u2019s event was on. Two of the Poznan referees handwrote her a sign that read \u2018Happy birthday, Cindy. We miss you.\u2019 They captured an image of themselves with the sign as the Australians headed on to the pitch to play Greece, then posted it on Facebook. Cindy was understandably chuffed. The HWC\u2019s slogan, \u2018a ball can change the world\u2019, rings true. The event\u2019s football is fast-paced and furious, with players gaining fitness, confidence, ball and teamwork skills. But the real HWC magic happens in the moments when players aren\u2019t necessarily winning, or even on the pitch. The Canadian goalkeeper, for example, was gloved up and unable to re-tie one of his own shoelaces when it came undone mid-match. When the referee ran over to tie it for him, the goalkeeper showed his thanks by giving the referee a spontaneous shoulder massage. The Indonesian team combined serious football skills with un-serious mohawk haircuts dyed vibrant red. Led by their coach \u2013 who himself went from 15 years of homelessness to being an outstanding player in 2012, before being selected to steer the 2013 team \u2013 the Indonesians\u2019 onfield and off-field joy was infectious. TAke A LOOk at the sport section of any newspaper or website. Australia\u2019s cricket team has been imploding, the AFL has been embroiled in a messy doping controversy... It\u2019s enough to make you stop watching sport altogether. A football (soccer) tournament taking place in the northern hemisphere seems an unlikely antidote to this frustration, but the Homeless World Cup (HWC), which just played out in Poznan, Poland, is precisely that. It is drug- and alcohol-free, has a focus on fair play rather than winning at all costs, and offers many participants who\u2019ve faced severe hardship the chance to shine. The HWC is an event for people who, for reasons such as drug addiction, abuse, poverty or war, have found themselves homeless and marginalised in the previous two years. Requiring no common language, and with just two goals and a round ball needed to play, the HWC tells the story of homelessness without really focusing on homelessness at all. Instead, it provides a stage for people to enjoy football, share their stories and shed the stigma of disadvantage. During the tournament, players can be transformed from invisible and misunderstood to visible and celebrated, with members of the public learning about them and their lives, and actively cheering them on. even the event\u2019s co-founder (also the co-founder of The Big Issue in Scotland), Mel Young, still grapples with how to encapsulate the HWC\u2019s transformative effect in a media-friendly soundbite. What is clear is that the tournament is getting something right. Ten years on from the first HWC in Graz, Austria, we\u2019re now seeing the event\u2019s powerful legacy. Players are returning to the event as coaches, support staff and spectators.

        "raw_content": "State of the Nation AS SINGER AND lyricist for The National, Matt Berninger is a hero to thousands, his brooding imagery and robust baritone a key factor in the Brooklyn-based band\u2019s mounting success. But he\u2019s not perfect: the 42-year-old drinks a lot of wine when performing and, until two years ago, he\u2019d been a smoker for half his life. Berninger had tried to quit repeatedly in the past, managing to kick the habit while his wife was pregnant, only to resume after their daughter was born in 2009. But in between The National\u2019s fifth album High Violet (2010) and last year\u2019s Trouble Will Find Me, he was finally able to quit for good using prescription medication. \u201cI thought I\u2019d never be able to look at a cigarette without just going for it again,\u201d he recalls, \u201cbut something changed. It got out of my system.\u201d While there\u2019s been talk of a renewed range to his voice since ditching those pesky cigarettes, Berninger says that\u2019s not why he hits higher notes on tracks such as the ballad \u2018Heavenfaced\u2019. It was actually the influence of the late Roy Orbison (1936\u20131988) that got him pushing more in that direction. \u201cIn one song he would sing in three or four different octaves,\u201d Berninger marvels. \u201cI was attempting to see exactly how high I could sing. I hadn\u2019t actually tried that much before.\u201d The surprising breadth of his delivery is only part of Trouble Will Find Me\u2019s mystique. A long and absorbing album, it\u2019s the purest distillation yet of Berninger\u2019s hangdog soul and the inventive, orchestral leanings of his bandmates, two pairs of brothers: Aaron and Bryce Dessner and Bryan and Scott Devendorf. From the elliptical drumming of album opener \u2018I Should Live in Salt\u2019 to the aerodynamic tautness of \u2018Graceless\u2019, it\u2019s so full of dark, understated beauty that even dozens of listens don\u2019t unlock it completely. No wonder it picked up the band\u2019s first Grammy nomination, for Best Alternative Album. For all the attention focused on Berninger\u2019s lyrics \u2013 with such odd, mantra-like refrains as We\u2019re out looking for astronauts and There\u2019s a science to walking through windows \u2013 each album\u2019s creation yields notebooks stuffed with many more lyrics that never make the cut. And he\u2019s not saving them for a rainy day. \u201cEverything that\u2019s left over just feels like the by-product waste of the process,\u201d he admits. \u201cIt\u2019s like all the footage that ends up on the cutting-room floor of a movie. I let stuff just pile up in corners. I\u2019m not precious about it.\u201d When it\u2019s suggested that the notebook pages could accompany future reissues of the band\u2019s albums, he counters, \u201cI\u2019d be embarrassed to publish them. There\u2019s a lot of doodles.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Find the Niche Photography Category for Your Home Based Business\nYou may have already started to make money from your photography, but if you are still a gifted amateur, then there are effective methods you can use to kick start your chances of making a profit. At the present time there has never been more opportunities for the photographer. New technologies in the form of digital cameras are changing the face of the industry. However that has always been the case for photographers, and it is no reason to get discouraged.\nIt has never been easier for the amateurs to take their own photographs. However there are certain circumstances where it is harder than others. An example here is pet photography. There are plenty of people living alone, who have pets, and whilst they can photograph their pets it is far harder to get a photograph of them with their pets. Advertise locally to take pet photos, or take a walk in your nearest park and ask people. If you use a digital camera, you can advertise to people that not only can they have a copy of their pets, as a photograph, but they can have it on their desktop as wallpaper. Digital online printing services will also print the photo on postcards. Get some done and then post them to friends or relations overseas. mugs and serve them in your house to pet owners and see how long it is before someone else wants one.\nThere are other possibilities, with the tee shirts and mugs, some people will want their own photographs on a tee shirt with perhaps their own caption, advertise these services locally through the means of small ads.\nHave some business cards printed, and go and cover local sporting events and contests, there is always someone without a camera, especially if they win, they will want a photograph. Or you may like to consider joining a local society, and advertising yourself as a photographer, there is nothing as effective as word of mouth advertising, all the money paid for advertisements cannot beat it!\nBe aware of local activities that take place in your area that you can capitalise on. Graduations are an occasion when people wish to have a more formal record. The cost of graduating itself is so high that what is the cost of a formal portrait in comparison. Especially if you have a digital camera and have no film, you can almost use it in a speculative manner. In other words there are a lot of people together who constitute a market. If you photograph them all then the chances are that you will sell about 40% of your work. There is always someone who has a jammed camera, or in the wrong place, or even proud grandparents who do not possess a camera.\nNot everyone lives down the Road from the Taj Mahal, or Gracelands, but many of you will live near a landmark that attracts photographers. Many people will have their cameras but they will not necessarily be digital. If you have a digital camera you should be able to show people a photograph they want in front of something. These photographs, though time consuming to start with, are a start on the photographic market ladder.\nJoin a photographic club, and talk to other photographers who are making money now. Not only will you make contacts, but you will have the opportunity to refine your techniques. Even in this digital age, it is vital that you keep abreast with technology, and you will be able to compare the value of equipment, that is being used now.\nIf you have a digital camera, take it in your local nightclub, there is always one in any time, which are new and trendy, take photographs of the range of cocktails on offer. Attractive looking drink will sell better with a photograph, see if you can sell the photographs, or better still negotiate a price for new printed menus. Speak with other local businessmen and see if they can improve their marketing techniques with the use of photographs. A second hand car dealer can increase his business potential with the use of photographs.\nRemember when you are starting to make money from photography that you may feel as though you will attract more market share if you sell your work cheaply. Before you take this strategy though, think about some of the implications. It will have a short-term increase that is for sure, but in the long term how many businesses and families want to hire the cheapest photographer in town. People know that they rarely get good quality for super cheap prices and photos,...well, they're special items to most people. Don't be too expensive but don't be cheap either!\nYour technical ability is sufficient to represent your client's marketing in a visual statement, that requires more than point and shoot. Do not sell these skills short. You have to be aware of the hidden costs of doing business; all to often it is easy to absorb a little loss of profit, because it is only small. These costs can add up to a sizeable amount. Ask other local photographers price their market, this may seem a strange technique, but they have a vested interest in not letting a new comer under price their market.\nTake into account your realistic overheads, that is the depreciation of your equipment, your insurances, legal fees, accountancy fees, repairs, travel time and costs, subscriptions, and possible rent, both of equipment and studio space. Educate your client explain to them what the higher technology costs, but also what it can offer them. All businesses have to be made more profitable, and it is difficult but not impossible to find a balance between the price you need to charge, and the price the customer will pay, the more the client understands new technology, the less likely they are to balk at paying for it. After all it is cheaper to ride a bike to work than invest in a new car, but who realistically wants to do it.\nIt is a good idea to sit down and write a business plan to define where you want to go and define your target audience. This is a good marketing strategy; it stops you wasting time effort and money, targeting areas that will provide you with little or no return.\nPublisher & author: Roy Barker.

        "title": "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong: 60 Years of Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy (And 7 Years of This Blog!)",
        "raw_content": "60 Years of Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy (And 7 Years of This Blog!)\n60 years ago today, Louis Armstrong walked into a Chicago recording studio and recorded this:\nThere are no words....but I'll try to find some.\nThat was Armstrong's second trip to Columbia's Chicago studio in as many days. The previous night, he and his All Stars had knocked off SIX master takes for a brand new album of W. C. Handy compositions, produced by then 35-year-old George Avakian. After knocking out \"Memphis Blues\" with relative ease, it was time to confront Handy's magnum opus: \"St. Louis Blues.\"\nArmstrong was far from a stranger with the jazz classic of them all. In fact, almost any time he played it in front of a recording device, the result was one for the time capsule. Take your pick: the emotional 1925 version sung by Bessie Smith; the rollicking 1929 version with Luis Russell's Orchestra (a favorite of many true Armstrong nuts, including Clint Baker); uptempo romps for Victor in 1933 and Vox in 1934; and so on.\nBut after featuring it in the early days of the All Stars, \"St. Louis Blues\" became a favorite feature of Armstrong's pianists, first Earl \"Fatha\" Hines and his \"Boogie Woogie\" treatment, and later Marty Napoleon with his thrilling turbocharged approach. But with an entire album of Handy tunes to record, is was inevitable that Armstrong would have to face \"St. Louis Blues\" once again. He was ready.\nAfter a number of false starts with everyone trying to get the rhythms straight on the introductory habanera strain, the All Stars locked in and did not stop swinging for nearly nine minutes. \"I did not expect what Pops gave me on that tune,\" Avakian told me in 2008. Apparently, neither did the other All Stars. Vocalist Velma Middleton wasn't sure when to enter and almost prematurely stepped on Armstrong's opening two-minute-20-second ensemble rendering of Handy's multi-strained piece. In the middle, Armstrong seemed to surprise sidemen Barney Bigard and Trummy Young when he led a spur-of-the-moment instrumental chorus, reaching far back into his memory to pluck out a blues lead he originally waxed on 1925's \"Terrible Blues.\" Avakian sure didn't expect Armstrong and Middleton to start making up bawdy choruses--Middleton's about how all the boys like her because she \"takes her time,\" Armstrong's about whipping her all over her head with a picket conveniently grabbed from a nearby fence.\nThroughout this, the first complete take, one can feel that everyone knew something special was happening. Trombonist Trummy Young then produced perhaps the filthiest trombone solo of his lifetime, an epic moment only eclipsed by the titanic rideout playing of Armstrong and the entire band. When it came to an end, George Avakian uttered a spontaneous critique: \"Louie, that was really a bitch!\" And then various members of band shouted their battle cry, \"Wail!\" Listen for yourself:\nIf was after listening to that take that Avakian and the All Stars seized up what could be tightened. On the next go-around, it was perfected and Avakian had an opening track to his album, the roof-shaking performance that opened this blog. When the album, Louis Armstrong Plays W.C. Handy, was released in late 1954, the jazz community--including many lunkheads who had written so much utter garbage about Armstrong supposed decline (is my bias showing?)--applauded wholeheartedly. Armstrong told Leonard Feather the recordings were \"the tops\" of his career. Nat Hentoff gave it five stars in Downbeat and wrote, \"This LP is one of the greatest recordings not only of the year, but of jazz history. After years of wandering in a Decca desert (with very few oases) Louis finally had a full-ranged shot at the kind of material he loves, along with the kind of freedom that George Avakian provides at a jazz date....This album is an accomplishment Avakian can well be self-congratulatory about. By arranging this session and supervising it with this much unobtrusive skill and taste, Avakian, too--as well as W. C. Handy and Louis--has made a lasting contribution to recorded jazz.\"\nFlash forward to October 1995. 15-year-old Ricky Riccardi (me) sees The Glenn Miller Story and has his mind blown by Louis Armstrong's performance of \"Basin Street Blues.\" (Enough third person.) In a story I've told many times, my mother took me to the Ocean County Library in Toms River, NJ and a wall of Armstrong cassette tapes stared at me. I didn't know where to begin so I chose something that sounded promising: 16 Most Requested Songs. It was a compilation of Armstrong's 1950s Columbia recordings selected by--and with annotation by--someone named George Avakian.\nThe tape grabbed me from the opening notes of \"Mack the Knife\" and just did not let go. I knew I was getting in deeper and deeper with each passing track but it was number 14--\"St. Louis Blues\" from Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy--that did it. When Trummy went in the gutter and Louis called everyone home, I felt my life begin.\nJuly 13, 2007. Since that fateful 1995 day, I had only gotten deeper and deeper, getting a Master's in Jazz History and Research, writing a 350-page thesis on Louis's later years, befriending George Avakian. But I wasn't doing much of anything else. I had been painting houses full-time for my father's company since graduating Rutgers in May 2005. I had an agent because I was confident that a book on the last 25 years of Louis Armstrong's life had commercial potential....but I seemed to be the only one to think that as my proposal had been rejected by everyone who had received it. Things were looking bleak.\nAnd then it hit me: a blog! Everybody's doing it! Sure, I don't get paid or anything but what the hell, it's a way to make a name for myself and maybe get to meet some other Armstrong nuts from around the world. I made absolutely zero connection that July 13 was the same date as the recording of \"St. Louis Blues.\" I just dove in and wrote the following for a first entry:\n\"Hello! My name is Ricky Riccardi and you can learn more about me in the (you guessed it) 'About Me' section of this blog. I just wanted to take a second and discuss what this blog is all about. There are tons of Armstrong videos on YouTube and in my Itunes, I have 2,408 Armstrong songs arranged in chronological order. I plan on hitting \"shuffle\" on my Itunes and whatever Armstrong track comes up first, I will discuss it. I'll provide the musicians, the writers, the soloists, I'll give some analysis of the recording and I'll even tell you where you can buy it or listen to it. On some days, I'll post a YouTube video and do the same. You're more than welcome to comment and offer your own opinions or disagreements to whatever I write. There's really no order to anything, just a (hopefully) daily celebration of Armstrong's music! Enjoy!\"\nThe \"daily celebration\" aspect lasted a week; later it became weekly; these days, I'm happy if it's bi-monthly. But the celebration continues and as anyone who knows me can attest, I'm happy to almost be celebrating something different almost every day: the publication of my book, the new Mosaic box, my gig at the Armstrong House, etc.\nBut I didn't want this to turn into a full-blown look-at-all-the-lucky-Armstrong-stuff-I've-been-involved-with celebration (for that, there's always Mick Carlon's profile of me for Jazz Times....thanks, Mick!). When I saw that the anniversary date coincided with the 60th anniversary of the Handy album, well, something had to be done...because frankly, nothing was being done.\nJazz world! Hello! Where the hell are you? Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy is one of the great albums of all time. We're in agreement, right? Well, where's the magazine piece on the making of it? Where's the souped up, limited edition 60th anniversary boxed set? A podcast? A post to a message board?\nMan, I can name some other albums from the 1950s and 1960s that have gotten MUCH more attention for their anniversaries (cough, cough, Miles, cough, cough) but the anniversary of ol' Pops's classic will pass without much fuss. I think that's a shame. Does anyone else agree?\nOne reason why I'm a little ticked is I KNOW what's out there and what could be done in terms of a bonus reissue of this material. There's a supposed \"Complete\" edition out there from one of the European bootleg labels. It's not complete. How do I know? Let me explain.\nA lot of this--as well as the backstory on the making of the album and a track-by-track analysis--is in my book so I don't want to repeat too much of it but long story short, Sony hired George Avakian to put together a proper reissue of the Handy album in the mid-1990s, after they were crucified for a reissue heavy with unexplained alternate takes from the 1980s. Avakian brought along David Ostwald as his right hand man for putting together the reissue. When I became friends with Avakian and Ostwald after the 2008 Satchmo Summerfest, I told them about my book plans for Louis's later years. That's when they told me about the session tapes for the Handy album. I was allowed to copy them from somewhat shaky sounding cassette tapes and I told George and David I wouldn't post complete tracks or share them, which wasn't easy since my nature is to share, share, share.\nBut at least I had the tapes and I got to utilize them for my book. It's been six years and I'm almost at the point where I know some of the alternates as well as the masters. Well, that's great for me but I hate when I'm the only one with access to some spectacular Pops.\nIn the wake of posting on Facebook about the new Mosaic box of live Louis, I began getting questions about a similar box of alternates and masters from the studio Columbia sessions of the same period: the Handy date, Satch Plays Fats and the \"Mack the Knife\" single session, which included some stuff with Lotte Lenya. A 4 or 5-CD set could easily be done of the existing masters and the best of the alternates and unedited takes. I have absolutely no predictions about whether or not something like that will ever be released but do know that with the current Mosaic set out of the way, I'm ready, I'm ready, so help me, I'm ready!\nHow to prove it? By opening up the sacred Avakian-Ostwald Handy session tapes for the first time ever on this blog. In keeping with their wishes, I'm not going to share anything remotely complete. But after so many years, I just HAVE to share some of the unissued riches that do exist and hopefully can be made available to the public.\nAlready, above, I shared the unissued rideout to the first complete take of \"St. Louis Blues.\" Perhaps you weren't aware of what you were listening to....go back and listening again! It's terrific and Louis's phrasing is different than it was on the famed master take. I'm not going to say any of the alternates were better than the masters--Avakian was the best at putting together the most effective parts of each take--but they're all very interesting and capture the band at the peak of its powers (oh, but only if Edmond Hall had been around one year earlier....).\nA few examples then. The first song attempted at the first session on July 12, 1954 was \"Aunt Hagar's Blues.\" After a few breakdowns, the All Stars finished a complete take on the fourth attempt. Louis was ready to blow. Here's the rideout:\nNext up was \"Hesitating Blues.\" On the 1997 re-issue, there's a fantastic \"Rehearsal Take\" that could have easily been issued except Velma used it to practice her lyrics quietly in the background. If you haven't listened to it in a while, do so now! \"Ole Miss Blues\" followed as a change of pace. Again, the band recorded a complete \"Rehearsal Take\" just to get used to the routine. Here it is from Pops's solo onward, including an extended bit of drumming by the newest member of the band, Barrett Deems:\n\"Beale Street Blues\" followed, one of my favorite tracks on the album. There was only one complete take prior to the master and though very good, there's a few fluffs and it's not really worth sharing here (hopefully one day!). But that's when Avakian had a brilliant idea (though he also admits that he's not sure why he did it): he let the tapes roll for the ENTIRE sequences of putting together and recording \"Loveless Love\" and \"Long Gone.\" On the 1997 reissue, there's about 6 or 7 minutes of each, edited beautifully by David Ostwald. But on the unedited tapes, each one goes on for 30-35 minutes! It's not ALL worthy of release but it is an absolutely fascinating look at how this band worked in the studio, especially on a night when they could do no wrong. Again, check that 1997 CD for David's edit of \"Long Gone,\" but right now, here's the rideout to yet another one of those \"Rehearsal Takes\" on \"Loveless Love.\" Remember: the band did not know this was being recorded and Avakian had no plans to issue it. Listen to how they all simply play like its their last night on earth. No coasting, no taking it easy. It's just full-on, 100% pure swing:\nAfter that, the band called it a night, but six of the 11 tracks were in the can. The next day began with \"Memphis Blues.\" After a botched first take, they completed a second try. There were a few mistakes and Avakian ended up using take three, but listen to the powerful, previously unheard rideout to take 2:\nThen came \"St. Louis Blues,\" where this blog began. The July 13 session ended with a romp on \"Atlanta Blues.\" Here's a funny moment from the first complete take. They had the sheet music but I guess they hadn't really played it through. The band burns through the last few choruses and then Louis gets to the written ending, a completely old-timey \"Good evening friends\" lick ending on a dominant seventh. It catches him by surprise and the whole band breaks into hysterics. They got it right a few takes later:\nThe final session opened with one of the highlights of the entire album, \"Chantez-Les Bas (Sing 'Em Low).\" The band easily took to the blowing strain of this number as it was identical to the eight-bar blues of \"My Bucket's Got a Hole in It.\" One of the legends of this album is that on the master take, Trummy got so enthused, he didn't want it to end and kept on blowing, making Pops reach high for one more lowdown take. Well, the legend is true! The first complete take is one chorus shorter and though it sounds like Trummy wants to keep going, it halts. No one was going to stop him on the next try! Here's an edit I made with the rideout from take 1 first (previously unheard), followed by the more famous ending, Louis and Trummy's favorite moment on the entire album (as related on an interview on one of Louis's private tapes):\n\"Yellow Dog Blues\" wrapped up the tunes for the album but the unissued alternates are pretty close to the master so I've chosen not to include it here (again, maybe someday!). And that was that. George went to work editing and splicing like crazy and a few months, a masterpiece hit the market. The 1997 reissue is still in print and still a big seller to this day.\nThat's it for my little look at Louis Armstrong's greatest album, though I could keep on going for thousands of more words. Maybe someday I'll get the opportunity on a deluxe edition of this set. Keep your fingers crossed but until then, the least you can do it give the original album a spin and give thanks to George Avakian, W. C. Handy and Louis Armstrong!\nOh, those glisses at the end of \"Chantez-le-Bas! I can feel 'em in my lips. Wow.\nEarlier this week, I glued together the Master and Alternate versions of the W. C. Handy album into one album on my computer. Thank you for this Ricky. I will be the first in line to pick up the Louis Armstrong Complete Columbia Studio Sessions.\nSo many things make this a monumental album. Louis at the height of his powers, arrangements not being held to the 3.5 minute time limits and Mr Avakian's treatment of the music in the final product. I could go on about the obvious spirit of the band and each member playing at a level never before captured. So where is the Downbeat feature? How about Jazz Times? I don't get it but we have Ricky, David, Mr Avakian and all of the followers of this blog who understand and appreciate what this is, one of the most important documents of Jazz history ever recorded. Thanks Ricky, we all appreciate all you do in the name of Pops.\nTom Cunniffe said...\nAnother great column, Ricky! This material simply NEEDS to be issued. Make it happen, buddy!\nThose complete studio sessions HAVE to see the light of day. They are the equivalent of the Beethoven sketch-books.\nAgreed that these are mind blowing and beyond wonderful.\nBootlegs are starting to show up on outside of US sites, and, in the us, on some of the streaming sites.\nHope Columbia does right and releases these correctly. Not only would they be commercially viable, they're historical documents.\nRobert Schuch said...\nI see there is a now high-res digital download version of the W.C. Handy Album, which may have derived from the Super Audio CD release from a few years ago. Any idea if this comes from the same 1997 re-master? That seems awfully early for a DSD recording.\nI keep hoping the original master will turn up!\nTurk said...\nHey Ricky, kudos on this incredible presentation, which I came upon by chance. I first heard this album about 4 years after its release, and it was the first time I'd seriously heard Louis. I was 13 years old, had been playing trumpet for 3 years, and as a freshman was already 1st chair in my high school band, so yeah, I was into the horn. The album completely blew me away, and actually changed my life. One effect was a decades-long career as a commercial/jazz musician. Another effect was having a sound track that has lasted throughout all my life, with those riffs running through my head today. It's hard for me to understand why the album is on the radar of so few people. Does it only speak to some of us? I played a couple of cuts for my cousin recently, and he said something to the effect that it was OK, but he preferred a good Coleman Hawkins solo . . . apples and oranges?? I've played every type of music - classical, bebop, Mingus-style jazz, Motown, but nothing does it to me like this. Played with Fatha' Hines at the end of his life, what a thrill! Would love to send you a cut of my West End Blues (from 30 years back) . . . would like to think it catches Louis' spirit, let me know how to get it to you, if you'd like. Didn't quite understand your Ed Hall comment, tho . . . He was a different kind of great than Barney, but I can't imagine anybody doing the W.C. Handy album better than Bigard . . . so laid back & tasty. Anyhow congrats again on your fine scholarship, and I'm glad to see someone else as affected by this music as I was. As for me, I'm 74, older than Louis when he died, but I'm still hale & hearty, still blowing (actually and weirdly, i think i'm improving!) and carrying on his inspiration as best I can.",

        "title": "Zootopia featuring Ginnifer Goodwin",
        "raw_content": "The motion picture that I have determined to note down about is the new-fangled Walt Disney Animation Studios movie, Zootopia. This movie was REMARKABLE, and coming from somebody who is not actually fond of the new Disney, the movie was superior. Zootopia is an action and adventure movie. It was written by Phil Johnston and Jared Bush and directed by Rich Moore, Byron Howard, and Jared Bush. The cast of Zootopia comprises Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman as the central characters, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. The cast furthermore incorporates others like Idris Elba as Chief Bogo, Bonnie Hunt as Bonnie Hopps, Jesse Corti as Mr. Manchas, Alan Tudyk as Weaselton, and various others. Zootopia was released in theaters on March 3, 2016, and released on DVD on June 6, 2016. The financial plan for Zootopia was 15 million dollars. This movie made $341,264,012.00 in box office. In my opinion, Zootopia was the best new Disney movie that Disney had produced.\nThe contemporary mammal metropolitan area of Zootopia is a city like none you have ever seen. This city consists of territory neighborhoods. Tundratown to bear a resemblance to the frozen tundra, Sahara Square to resemble the Sahara desert, and Rainforest District to give the impression of the rainforest are just a few examples of the numerous provinces in Zootopia. Zootopia is a place where animals from every atmosphere can live together no matter what kind of animal you are. From the tallest giraffe to the smallest mouse, all animals are welcome in Zootopia.\nThe main character of the movie, Judy Hopps, is a small bunny from a small town outside of Zootopia called Bunny Burrow. Ever since Judy was a little girl, she wanted to become a Zootopia police officer. Everyone that she knew doubted her dreams and tried hard to convince her to do something else with her life, but she triumphed over all the negativity, worked hard, became top of her class in the ZPD (Zootopia Police Department) Academy, and finally developed into the first bunny police officer. Judy then discovered that being the first bunny on a police force with massive, strong animals isn\u2019t as simple as she thought it would be. In able to prove herself laudable to her boss, Chief Bogo, and her co-workers, she determines herself to jump at the opportunity to crack the case of the disappearances of a dozen predators, even though it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist, Nick Wilde, to decipher the anonymity.\nThe cast members did a wonderful job bringing the job to life. They really put their heart into it, and you can tell while watching the movie. I believe that the directors did an excellent job when it came to grabbing the attention of the audience. The story line was encouraging to many in the world today. Many animals learned not to stereotype the other animals just because of the type of animal they may be. In the movie, Nicholas Wilde used the phrases, Dumb Bunny and Sly Fox to describe Judy Hopps and him. Near the ending of the movie those exact phrases were not used to describe one another. Later on Nick said to Judy, Sly Bunny as Judy said to Nick Dumb Fox. I think that the message in the movie was just because you are a certain type of animal, does not mean that you are bounded down to a stereotype. Embrace you who are or who you want to become and force others to look past the stereotypes and focus on your character. This movie can apply to the real life as well. In our world, we see each other as black or white of Asian or any other type of race. Instead of focusing on the outward appearances and what labels might my tagged on to our outward appearances, we should focus on what is occurring on the inside. How we can make ourselves a better person, how we can help others to become a better person, and just how to make the world a better place where Anyone can become anything. Zootopia really relates that message to us, the viewers, even if it related it to us through animals.\nThe critics and audience enjoyed the movie, Zootopia. This movie pulled the strings of hearts all around the world. The movie received a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. The brilliantly well-rounded Zootopia offers a thoughtful, inclusive message that's as rich and timely as its sumptuously state-of-the-art animation, all while remaining fast and funny enough to keep younger viewers entertained. As previously stated, I loved the movie. It was one of my all-time favorite movies. My opinion is that it is the best animation movie of 2016. It grabbed my attention, pulled at my heart strings, and overall, gave me a large amount entertainment that I do not think that they can pull of another great movie success. Hopefully, I am wrong. I would like to see Disney to keep making more amazing movies like this fantastic, marvelous, spectacular, Zootopia.",

        "raw_content": "Chicago Gets Rude Awakening in Playoffs, Courtesy of Detroit\nAfter Chicago swept Shaq, Dwayne Wade and the defending NBA Champion Miami Heat from the first round of the playoffs, many people started to speculate that the Chicago Bulls may be capable of making a deep playoff run. Despite their coterie of talent, Miami looked hapless against Chicago. Chicago's Luol Deng looked like an emerging star. Scott Skiles out coached Pat freakin' Riley, for god sakes. Anyone who had watched the Chicago/Miami series would have, understandably, said that Chicago's arrow was pointing up.\nWell, Drive and Dish didn't really watch the Miami/Chicago series. We only watched game four (and only the second half, at that). We simply didn't think that Chicago was good enough to get past Miami, so we weren't really all that interested in the series. Chicago has made three straight playoff appearances, but have never been a threat to actually win a playoff series. Drive and Dish thought that this year's Chicago team wasn't really much different (save for Ben Wallace being better than Tyson Chandler) than the previous two Chicago teams. We thought that (even with an ailing Dwayne Wade) Miami had too much talent for Chicago. What we didn't anticipate, however, was how absolutely unmotivated Miami would be for the first round of the playoffs. Miami didn't take Chicago seriously. They barely even showed up to play.\nSo Chicago dispatched Miami easily. But sweeping an unmotivated Miami team, whose best player (Wade) was injured, was not a sign that Chicago is for real. It's merely an indictment of Miami.\nChicago has been blown out by Detroit in the first two games of their second round playoff series. Detroit is the best team in the Eastern Conference. They're probably the best team in the NBA. In fact, Detroit was probably the best team in the NBA last year, too (despite their playoff loss to eventual Champion Miami). The Detroit Pistons should win the NBA Finals this year. Detroit has highly skilled players at every position. They have serious depth. All five of their guys (no matter who's in the line up) can score and defend. And Detroit plays hard. Chicago is way outclassed.\nSo, we at Drive and Dish aren't surprised by how decisively Detroit has handled Chicago. Detroit is the best team in the league.",

        "raw_content": "AJHL Development Camp Identifies Future Talent for League\nPosted July 23rd, 2018 @ 12:00 am\nOver the past few years, many AJHL players have been drafted into the NHL with Cale Maker and Jacob Bernard-Docker both being taken in the first round in back to back seasons. Last week in Camrose, the AJHL put on its third consecutive development camp for Midget players from across Alberta. The purpose of the camp is to give the players a chance to showcase their skills in front of General Managers, Coaches, and Scouts from around the league; as well as help the players prepare for the junior hockey level.\nThe camp is invitational only with 80 players receiving the call this summer. The camp features 2002-born athletes who played in the AMMHL in 2017-18, and who are not currently on the protected list of a Western Hockey League team.\nWhile in Camrose, the players are introduced to many of the best coaches in the province with group leaders coming from both Hockey Alberta and the AJHL. Throughout the week, they are put through multiple on ice sessions which include 8 games and 24 practices.\n\u201cFor the players, it is definitely a very challenging week. Typically each team will practice in the morning and then play a game in the evening\u201d, said Adam Manah, Head Coach of the Sherwood Park Crusaders and also a High Performance I coach at the camp. \u201cThroughout each day they may have a team building, yoga session, and AJHL coach presentations mixed in between their practices/games. Some mandatory rest time is also included for the players to recharge their batteries\u201d.\nThe development camp has been hugely successful with the league being extremely proud of what it has been able to accomplish so far. Teams from around the league have utilized the week to recruit players for their organizations. Staff members from the teams can set up meetings with both players and parents to discuss their potential future together.\n\u201cOur staff consistently attends the camp every year checking out the upcoming talent that will be moving up to Midget AAA for the following season,\u201d said Manah. \u201cWe find it's a very effective way to scout, and be able to see these players in a controlled setting at one rink. We then can follow up with them after the week concludes, and start building relationships with these players. All in all, the camp is a great thing for the AJHL, and most importantly, these players.\u201d\nSince the camp began in 2016, 33 of the original camp invitees are now full-time members of an AJHL roster. While 14 players from the 2017 camp played - as affiliates - in the league last season, with that number expected to increase in 2019.\nPlayers from the 2018 camp could next be seen at AJHL main camps which can begin on August 17th.",

        "raw_content": "During the days of Charity Thomas.........\nCharity was a huge influence in our families lives when I was growing up. She was the most wonderful, sweet, truly good person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She worked for Grandma as the household \"maid\". That is what they referred a woman who would come and clean the house and take care of the children. Sometimes she would stay overnight but for the most part she went home every night. She even wore an uniform.....things sure were different in those days.\nShe lived on the south side of Chicago in a pretty scary neighborhood and would take the train to Howard Street and then transfer to the Skokie Swift everyday. It was a huge commute for her, sometimes her husband would come and pick her up.....he was a little scary too...she would tell me stories of him and how he treated her...which was not too great and I remember being afraid for her. When you were born, being the first grandchild in the family you were extremely special to everyone. Charity would babysit for you while I would do my various errands or whatever. We lived so close to Grandma and I was able to stay home and raise you and Chel...I never took that for granted.\nCharity was like a member of our family and we all loved her so much. When you were first born, I would come over to Grandmas house with your portable crib.....it was on wheels and had a screen on top that you could zip all the way around. (We would let you sleep outside while we were at the pool at our apartment complex and you would be protected from the bugs.) Sometimes Charity, to get you to fall asleep when it was time for you to take a nap, she would push you around Grandmas house in your crib singing gospel songs until you dozed off. Grandma had a sprawling ranch house with 6 bedrooms..it had been added onto twice, so it was an interesting layout where you could go around and around through the kitchen and living room with a fireplace in between. Charity adored you so much.....\nShe was in our lives for so many years and then once she left we kind of lost touch, which was really sad. She had a daughter who really didn't like Grandma too much so she never let us know what happened to Charity years later, but I heard she may have a several strokes and finally died. I actually had a dream about her a few years ago. She was ironing at Grandmas house and when I saw her, I yelled,\"Charity\"!! I ran over to her and gave her a hug in which felt so real. I didn't want to let go...we were both crying in the dream. Then it was over.....\nCan you dig those colored cabinets...so 50\"s\nI do have one negative memory of Charity and that was the day that I offered to take her home after work. I should preface by saying that I always had a fear of getting lost, I would always worry about it...getting lost in a bad neighborhood was terrifying to me. I think the only reason I went was because I felt safe being with Charity and also I knew her husband was a tough guy and he would protect us. I went with you when you were about 4 years old. It was kind of shocking for me to see a man on the street in broad daylight drinking liquor from a paper bag, sitting on the stoop of an apartment building. Our world was truly like living in a bubble thus far.....it was a definite culture shock for me.\nDuring the short time we spent dropping Charity off..... her German Shepard dog ended up biting you in the face. It had just missed your eye and made a scratch just below your eyelid. I was freaking out and got you out of there so fast, insisting Charity drive us to the entrance ramp going towards the suburbs and away from the south side of Chicago....I had been so scared of getting lost in that neighborhood. I haven't been back there since.\nDANCE LESSONS:\nWhen you and Chel were younger you both showed an interest in tap dance, so we signed you up at Jane Perry Studios in Arlington Heights. Jane was an \"old school\" dance instructor who would dance with the little kids and they could mimic what she did in a mirror. She would have dance recitals at the end of the year that you and Chel really enjoyed. Our family would come to the shows and patiently wait for all of the other kids to go through their dance numbers until it was your turn....Just wanted to share some of the photos we took during those days......you guys were too cute!\nI didn't want to leave out Chelsey.......\nI really wish we could somehow go back in time, just for a while to be there again!\nmiss you tremendously........m\nDesperate for Help...... and..... PostSecret.....\nAs life went on and we tried so desperately to get help for you during the first couple years of the illness....I.....the queen of self-help and support groups decided to contact as many organizations as possible to try and learn as much as I possibly could to educate myself. It was very daunting at first not knowing anything about the life-threatening illness that was beginning to take over your life.\nThis may not have been such a good idea, because one of the first letters I wrote in 2002 was to a place called ANRED (Anorexia Nervosa & Related Eating Disorders). I have posted the letter, but I will tell you it was the worse thing I could have read at that time, so discouraging, depressing, so horrible that it haunted me for years to come. I never forgot those words...\n\"Experience does suggest that if the person is not ready to change, then nothing can be done to make her change. And as you know, the risk is high that she will not live long enough to experience a desire to change, especially while her brain is impaired by malnutrition\".\nAround 2005 I then decided to write a few letters to Oprah, since that is the first place I ever heard of the bazaar world of eating disorders in the first place. There was a girl she had on her show several years trying to help her recover to no avail. She ended up dying of her illness, it was so sad. I wrote to probably 4 or 5 total talk show hosts or people in the media like Robin Roberts, Maury, Tyra...etc. I never heard back from anyone of them. I guess deep down inside I have a small bit of resentment to them all.\nWhy was everyone elses story more important than ours....?\nHere are 2 letters in which I saved in order to look back on later...like now\nAfter never hearing anything from the media, I gave up on that idea and went on with life.\nPostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a homemade postcard. You were so exited about it after finding it on the Internet. You would beg me to go there every Sunday to check out the new secrets that would change every week. It is a very popular website dedicated to helping a Suicide Hotline save young people. They even have several books with Postsecrets in them that they sell all over.\nI even sent one in at one point, which I don't think ever made it on the website. You went crazy making some, yet never ended up sending them in. I think they were still very therapeutic and with your creativity in art you just enjoyed making them. There was a time too that you got this brilliant idea of having people who were in treatment or ED hospital programs create cards and send them to you. You wanted to have it dedicated just to people with the same problems you lived with to see if it would be of help. I remember you wrote a letter to Frank Warren (founder of Postsecret)....but never heard back. You even called some programs, a few were actually interested, yet it never really got off the ground. You always wanted to help others...that was one of your wonderful qualities. If you ever saw anyone who was going down the same path that you had gone you would discourage them immediately.\nI wanted to share some of the cards you created......some are incredibly powerful\nI am thinking of sending a few in myself..it's very freeing and psychologically cleansing....\nI truly miss you more each day.......m\nMore Ramblings from the very beginning of the Anorexia nightmare.....\nOne of your art pieces you created while spending time at ABBH\nRight around 1998 life as I knew it in my bubble of happiness was about to take a drastic turn for the worse. My family whom I took such pride and care for, who I made sure was always as happy as humanly possible was about to have a rude awakening. Our lives were truly picture perfect with our share of ups and downs. You and Chelsey were coming into your mid teens and we as parents having pretty much dodged the somewhat horrifying anticipation of possible teen pregnancy, drug addition, in with the wrong crowd...etc......i never in my wildest dreams would have thought that Anorexia would come into our lives. I often felt that in the long run I would have rather dealt with any of those above mentioned than what we dealt with for 14 years...\nAbout a year earlier the family had gone through some time trying to diagnose what was wrong with Chelsey which we would find out later to be Panic Disorder. After going to several different professionals who had some pretty strange ideas of what could possibly be the matter and also dealing with her high school, who was very little help...... we found a wonderful doctor who specialized in PD and we got it all under control. I guess you could say this was the very beginning of my education that not all doctors and health professionals know everything...remember I lived in a \"bubble of happiness\" for a long time. I guess I was a little naive too since our lives didn't really have much trauma up to this point. Things were looking better after the help of Dr. Feder....\nWhen you came back home after your 3 weeks grooming at the horse shows in Florida and after a large amount of weight lost during those few weeks, the trainer begged us to take you home, she suspected the worst .......we then took you to one of the outpatient programs in Chicago,which you did not like much at all. There was so much anger that I didn't understand where it came from. You had been so weak from your change in diet and your new way of eating..combined with your new exercise regimen.....I remember you told me one day that you were afraid of falling asleep, that you felt so weak you were afraid you wouldn't wake up.\nI will say, looking back at it all now, that you really did a splendid job hiding your whole exercise deal from me. I had no idea of what the extent of your addiction was taking you to. That one time you shared with me your entire routine, I was in awe of the routine you set up for yourself, which you would do daily for a total of 4 to 5 hours per day ( I was unaware of this, until much later). So there would be, for example, a certain number of stretches to start, then 8 jumping jacks, then 20 kicks and so on....IF you added one more into the routine you could never go back and take it out..it could only increase. Those were the rules that you made. You could never change the rules....you knew it didn't make sense and you knew it was hurting you, but you couldn't control it. I truly believe that if you could have stopped the insanity you would have.\nThere were the few times you got caught, once by Chel and her boyfriend Matt. They saw you exercising through the crack under the basement door and when they came to tell me about it I defended you...because you weren't allowed to be doing that...that was one of the rules in order to live under our roof at that time. I don't know what my problem was...maybe just ill equipped emotionally to take on this powerful illness which was taking my daughter away from me slowly and consistently each day.\nWhen I call it your addiction it never made sense to people who don't have any experience of Eating Disorders. They would say, \"how could she be addicted to food, she is starving herself\"? The fact of the matter being that everything relating to food, all of the numbers relating to food...such as calories, grams, fat content, sugars, weight etc. becomes an obsession. Going to the grocery store you would spend hours reading every single label on every single thing you picked up, buying only your restricted list of safe foods and stayed away from anything else. There was another component that came into play right from the start of it all and that was your Obsessive Compulsive Disorder...(OCD)....very common with some people to accompany an eating disorder.\nThis went on for several months and we tried so hard to do whatever the professionals told us in hopes that if we did..... you would be just fine. About 8 months later after refusing to enter into the inpatient program and also after they taught you how to basically eat again...the ultimatum was given. We told you that if you didn't go into the hospital..you would have to live elsewhere...your age being against us in the fact that we really didn't have any real say so since you were 18 at that point you left our home to live with your friends. They were unaware of the entire enabling issue, although they meant well and thought they were helping they only took you on the wrong path to recovery. This was just part of the journey.....who knows what would have happened if another path was taken, we will never know........\nYou looking very proud of yourself ....\nWhen this photo was taken we all thought that it was incredibly horrible and you couldn't possibly look any worse.....we were so wrong! Looking back now you look incredibly fantastic! At this point it confirms what one of my favorite sayings are...\"every thing's relative\"\nI even remember one of your doctors wanting to use this photo to use in one of his training programs to show what Anorexia does to people.\nThe Journey would continue............\nmiss you terribly.....m\nPosted by Sherri at 11:23 AM No comments:\n\"Dusty\" to Madison Square Garden....\nI am so proud to bring videos to this blog....many thanks to Chelsey for her figuring out the task of transferring all of our old time movies to DVDs. The first one is of your first horse show at DuPage County Fair in Illinois and you rode none other than the famous, \"Dusty\". You were only 11 years old at the time. He was one the greatest school horses ever! I remember so vividly how difficult it was to walk him anywhere near hay or grass, he would basically pretend like we didn't have him on a lead rope and drag you to where he could cop some food. He was strong as hell and sometimes would even try and grab grass while you were on him. I think every barn out there has had a school horse like \"Dusty\" at one time or another. Anyways, you were so exited to have the opportunity to ride him at the show. Pete, your trainer, who owned him told you to wake him up before going into the ring and boy did you ever! You hit him with the crop 3 or 4 times and it really wasn't inconspicuous in the least. It was kind of funny....I remember being so proud of you....little did I know that it would become your passion for years to come. A girl and her horse..there is nothing like it.\nSo many years went by between this video and the one below. About 7 years to be exact... 7 years of riding, grooming, lessons, horse shows, barn friends, Halloween barn parties, dressing up horses in costumes, trail riding, countdown, jumping, falling off a horse or two, breaking your arm, Blackie, Phil, Burt, Malmo, Kix, Rudy...etc.\nI have just a few regrets in my life and one of them is the fact that when you were going to go to ride Malmo at Madison Square Garden, I was not there. I remember I had just gotten a job at Saddlers Row and I used that as my excuse.....real reason was that I was and always have been afraid to fly. I wanted to be there so badly.....it had been 15 years since you went to NY and I will say I'm sorry I didn't go with you. I know you had a blast and I was about as proud as a mom could be! To this day every opportunity I can I mention that you rode at Madison Square Garden. Here are some memorabilia you saved from that time. It sure is a good thing that you are a saver....(the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree).\nThis was your acceptance letter...you were so exited!\n\"Rudy\" in Jumpers...my anxiety levels were sky high during those days\nYou and Malmo.....A Fantastic Team!\n\ufeffI miss you a ton........m\nMore Ramblings from the very beginning of the Anor...",

        "raw_content": "Man sentenced for killing mother, attacking brother\nAn El Cajon man who killed his mother and tried to kill his brother in 2015 was sentenced to 24 years to life in state prison on Aug. 8, 2018.\nErik Enrique Margain, 38, said nothing before he was sentenced by El Cajon Superior Court Judge Robert Amador, who ordered him to pay $3,542 in restitution that includes funeral expenses.\nMartha Margain-Velarde, 63, was beaten to death in her home in the 1900 block of Hidden Crest Drive in El Cajon around 5 p.m. on May 17, 2015.\nDeputy District Attorney Matthew Carberry said Erik Margain admitted to punching his mother with his fist 62 times. She suffered blunt force trauma to her head, neck, and torso, he said.\nCarberry said Margain told authorities he was tired of his mother telling him what to do.\nCarberry said Erik Margain knocked on his older brother\u2019s bedroom door. He then choked and kicked Carlos Margain, 40, who escaped out of the window. Carlos Margain had several ribs broken, suffered a collapsed lung, broken orbital eye socket and a broken nose.\nErik Margain pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted murder. Amador imposed 15 years to life for murder and nine years consecutively for attempted murder.\nCarberry read the letters of the killer\u2019s two brothers into the record as they were not in court.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been over three years since the worst day of my life happened \u2013 I still remember the vicious attack like it was yesterday,\u201d wrote Carlos Margain as he described \u201cthe look of rage on Erik\u2019s face as he relentlessly attacked me.\u201d\n\u201cMy mother was a social person who had many friends. She was loved by many people, and she had a very positive attitude,\u201d wrote Andres Margain, who is the defendant\u2019s fraternal twin brother. \u201cHe\u2019s smarter than you think and knows how to manipulate people to get what he wants.\n\u201cRight now, he\u2019s probably acting like the perfect inmate, and not causing trouble with anyone\u2026just biding his time for the day he gets out.\n\u201cI hope he sits in his cell till the day he dies. My brother Erik is a danger to himself, myself, to my brother Carlos, and society.\u201d\nAmador gave Margain credit for serving 1,179 days in custody including over a year at Patton State Hospital where doctors determined he was mentally competent to stand trial.\nHe was fined $10,294. He did not want to talk about the crime to an official preparing a sentencing report, but did say he had \u201cmade a mistake.\u201d He added that he hoped his brothers could forgive him.\nMurder solved 32 years after crime was committed\nA sentence of 26 years to life was handed down Aug. 6 in a Lemon Grove homicide that occurred 32 years ago.\nThe sisters and brother-in-law of the victim, Cyrus Jefferson, 20, spoke before Stacy Littleton, 53, received the maximum sentence from El Cajon Superior Court Judge Lantz Lewis.\nJefferson was found dead on Oct. 11, 1986, in a field in the 2500 block of 69th Street in Lemon Grove by a passerby. He had been stabbed to death.\nA jury convicted Littleton of first-degree murder on July 3 after they deliberated for nearly 11 hours over the course of three days. A key piece of evidence was a black glove found near Jefferson\u2019s head which had Littleton\u2019s DNA on it, said Deputy District Attorney Chris Lindberg.\nAfter the victim\u2019s relatives spoke, Littleton said, \u201cI\u2019m sorry for your loss \u2013 he was my friend too.\u201d\nLittleton was initially suspected in the homicide and was arrested, but he was not charged in court and was released. The sheriff\u2019s cold case homicide unit re-examined the case and Littleton was arrested in June, 2017 after advances in DNA testing linked him to the crime.\nLewis fined him $2,600 and gave him credit for 568 days in jail. He imposed 25 years to life for the murder, plus an additional year for the use of a knife in a homicide.\nLittleton and Jefferson were running errands together and had shared a motel room shortly before Jefferson died. The victim\u2019s car with his blood was found in Lemon Grove.",

We present a 32-year-old Asian man with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), but without other underlying diseases, who developed rapid-onset, raltegravir-associated rhabdomyolysis and hyperlactatemia. Our patient lacked predisposing factors for rhabdomyolysis, and the rapid onset time of 4 days was the shortest reported.

I have no problem at all [with that], and no one should have a problem with [freedom of] speech,\u201d Sisi told popular film director Sandra Nashaat in the one-hour pre-recorded TV interview, which was titled \u2018A nation and a President 2018.\u2019\n\u201cPeople are free to express their opinion [in their words] and in their actions, but they are not free to harm the country with violent acts,\u201d Sisi said.\nThe president made the comments in response to a 10-minute clip with interviews of dozens of citizens in several parts of the country, who aired their grievances about their fear of imprisonment, tough economic conditions and soaring living costs.\nSisi urged Egyptians to think before they speak, saying that they could unintentionally create misconceptions about the situation in the country.\n\u201cIf people keep repeating that the police take people, they will believe that there is an environment in Egypt where people cannot speak freely.\u201d\n\u201cThe truth is that this does not exist, or at least there is no directive for this at all,\u201d he said.\nLocal media said that the interview, where Sisi appeared in the first half taking a morning walk along with Nashaat in a green space, was held in a military club.\nSisi is running for a second term in a presidential vote set for next week against a sole candidate, the obscure leader of the Ghad Party Moussa Mustafa Moussa.\nThe president said he should not be held responsible for the limited competition in the upcoming poll.\n\u201cIt is not my fault. I swear to God I wished there would have been\u2026 10 of the best [candidates] and [for people to] choose who they want. But we are not ready yet, there is no shame in this,\u201d he said in reference to the country\u2019s political landscape.\n\u201cWe have more than 100 [political] parties, have they fielded many [candidates], or any?\u201d Sisi asked.\nSpeaking about the army\u2019s perceived influence over the economy, the former defence minister said the military\u2019s economic activity makes up only around 2-3 percent of the country\u2019s gross domestic products, dismissing suggestions that the Armed Forces control as much as half of the economy.\nThe military\u2019s economic activities have expanded over the years, varying from supplying food commodities, producing diverse goods and carrying out construction projects.\nSisi said the Armed Forces have a very limited presence in the food sector to regulate the market and offer goods at reduced prices.

        "raw_content": "Have S&P 500 Index Funds Lost their Sparkle?\nJuly 6, 2015\u2022 Funds\u2022 by Nick Rojas\nIn 1976, the Standard and Poor's 500 became the first stock market index tracked by a fund when Vanguard launched its legendary Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VFINX), which started with just $11 million and grew to become the largest U.S. equity mutual fund in existence by the late 1990s.\nThe year 1992 saw the first successful launch of an exchange-traded fund (ETF). It, too, tracked the S&P 500. Nearly a quarter century later, and largest ETF in existence is SPY, which tracks \u2014 you guessed it \u2014 the S&P 500.\nThe Granddaddy of all Indexes Rules the Index ETF World\nAccording to Forbes, the S&P 500 holds direct index assets of nearly $2 trillion, with an astounding $5 trillion benchmarked to the index, including derivatives. The S&P is the most important and most watched index in the world. The 500 mostly-U.S. companies it tracks are the most liquid in the world, and the index is the central indicator of the health and temperament of the overall stock market.\nAs index ETFs soared in popularity because of their low cost, simplicity and diversification, the funds that track the S&P 500 naturally rose to the top of the index fund world.\nHowever, for many index fund investors, the honeymoon period may be ending.\nThe S&P 500 Misses Much of the U.S. Market\nAs Forbes recently pointed out, the 500 companies tracked by the S&P 500 represent around 80 percent of all market capitalization in the United States, which, on the surface, makes it a logical vehicle for investors looking to capture a wide swath of the U.S. market. However, the reality is, the S&P 500 tracks just a fraction of the nearly 4,000 U.S. stocks that are traded on the market.\nIndex funds that track the S&P miss literally thousands of mid-cap, small-cap and micro-cap stocks. Funds like the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index (VTSMX), which capture more than 99 percent of the market, have filled that void \u2014 and these comprehensive index ETFs are luring more and more investors away from traditional S&P 500 funds.\nThe S&P 500 is Still Good, but no Longer Unbeatable\nMarketWatch points out that in the year 2000, when index ETFs began gaining widespread, mainstream popularity, the S&P was not just the most famous index, but it also displayed the performance to back up its popularity with index investors. In the two decades leading up to the turn of the millennium, the S&P 500 had compounded at 18 percent. During the last five years of the 1990s, it compounded at a staggering 28.6 percent.\nIn the ensuing 15 years, the S&P 500 has been good \u2014 but not good, enough to justify its continuing position as the go-to index ETF for domestic stocks. Many investors who have purchased nothing but S&P index funds are now dusting off their budget planner worksheets to see if they could have done better with other domestic ETFs. It turns out, they probably could have.\nAfter all, eight of the 10 Vanguard funds that MarketWatch profiled beat the Vanguard S&P 500 index fund over the last 15 years.\nThe S&P remains the most important stock market index in the world, and the funds that track it are safe, profitable, and as popular as ever. However, more and more index investors are falling out of love as other funds offer them everything in the S&P 500, plus the other 3,500 stocks in the lower 20 percent that the S&P misses.\nSee Also: Small-cap Stocks Still Outperforming S&P 500",

        "raw_content": "A significant part of the Lasota Palace\u2019s uniqueness comes from its long history. To this day, it is a testament to the rich XIX century style. We took utmost care that every element be restored by master craftsmen. The palace owes its current look to Alfons Ferdynand Kropiwnicki, one of the co-creators of Warsaw\u2019s Grand Theatre.\nThe interiors hold beautiful moldings, frescoes, tiled stoves (which heat the interiors during winter season events) and some unique cast-iron elements \u2013 some of the first in Poland. The colors of the palace \u2013 including the greens on the cast-iron outdoor elements \u2013 have all been restored to their XIX century state.\nTowards the end of the XVIII century, the village Zielonki was the property of king Stanis\u0142aw August Poniatowski. Following his death, it was inherited by the king\u2019s wife \u2013 Mrs. Grabowska. In 1788, the estate was purchased by Jakub Paschalis Jakubowicz h. RAWICZ (h. \u2013 pl: herb \u2013 literally \u201ccoat of arms\u201d or \u201chouse\u201d. The name of the heraldic family or noble house that a person belongs to, regardless of actual current blood relations.). In the nearby village of Lipk\u00f3w, he started a kontusz sash factory, renowned in the entire kingdom for its rich ornamentation and original designs.\nIn 1851, Jakub Paschalis Jakubowicz sold the estate to a known Warsaw architect, Alfons Ferdynand Kropiwnicki h. SAS. Alfons Ferdynand replaced the old, wooden residence located upon the still-surviving cellars with an Italian villa-styled palace. Based on his own ideas, the design used neorenaissance cast-iron elements, innovative for their time. The original tin flag on top of the round tower shows 1855 as the year of the completion of the palace.\nA.F. Kropiwnicki decided to sell the estate in 1875 to Adam Gliszczy\u0144ski h. JASTRZ\u0118BIEC. He expanded the palace by adding an annex and administered the property until 1919.\nThe new owner was count J\u00f3zef Basi\u0144ski h. PROWOCZA, together with his wife Antonina. The estate has been largely broken up by the 1930s, but until 1944 they were still the property of the Basi\u0144ski family.\nAs with most noble estates, the state seized the property in 1945. The palace was then converted to office and residential space, losing its historical purpose.\nIn 1997, the devastated palace and the remains of its landscape park have been purchased by Zenon Marian Lasota h. RAWICZ, a heraldic relative of Jakub Paschalis Jakubowicz. Over the next decade, arduous restoration work took place under the eyes of heritage conservators, aiming to restore both the architectural order of the palace,as well as its colour, based on the surviving elements and archeological discoveries.\nEventually, the efforts to save the XIX century palace and park, which constitute an important part of Polish national cultural heritage, have been successful. It is noteworthy that the Lasota Palace has been entered into the Polish Register of Historical Monuments under no. 1124/501 of 23.03.1962.\nToday the palace hosts numerous artistic presentations and is an important cultural and educational center in the Masovia region, aiding the popularization of historic and cultural knowledge in an attractive way.\nA Place of Beauty and Wonder\nThe Lasota Palace possesses an age-old tradition, and a XIX century style. Thanks to its exceptional atmosphere, our guests may travel back to those days during the events organized within the palace interiors.\nThe historic ballrooms and costumed staff will allow you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the period during events and parties. The historic room and palace tower, located next to the ballroom, will allow you to find out more about the palace and its surroundings, as well as appreciate its masterful craftsmanship.\nMore than 700 m2 of palace cellars and dungeons remain at our guests\u2018 disposal during the parties, which is also where our palace liquors are prepared.\nExiting from the ballroom is a wide terrace, descending into the gardens. The palace is surrounded by a beautiful park with antique trees, considered natural monuments. Here you can forget about your worries and listen to the birds sing. The quiet atmosphere suits relaxation and particularly memorable events.",

        "title": "Eradicating Child Marriage in Egypt | Majalla",
        "raw_content": "Eradicating Child Marriage in Egypt\nUnder-Age Marriages are Practiced in Some Regions of the Country on a Large Scale\nEgypt\u2019s National Council for Childhood and Motherhood said that it prevented a child marriage on Monday 17 December after videos and photos of an engagement ceremony which showed a 14-year-old groom dancing with his 15-year-old bride went viral and triggered an uproar on social media and Egyptian media.\nIn reaction to the uproar, the groom\u2019s mother defended the act. \u201cWe did nothing wrong,\u201d she told private television station DMC.\n\u201cThe families of Fares and Nada are relatives. We wanted just to emphasise the idea that they will marry each other in the future. Therefore, we decided to hold an engagement where he offered the gold gift to his [would-be] bride,\u201d the woman added, referring to an Egyptian engagement tradition.\n\u201cBoth love each other. Therefore, we decided to make the issue official. If I saw my son unworthy of responsibility, I wouldn\u2019t have agreed to the engagement. He may look young, but he is broad-minded.\u201d\nThe mother said the two children will complete their education and will only wed when they turn 18.\nShe criticised what she called \u201cexcessive coverage\u201d of the event. \u201cThere are more important things in Egypt than this. This is normal in our town where children at the age of Fares and younger engaged to girls.\u201d\nIn a statement, the secretary \u2013general of the council Azza El-Ashmawy said that the incident, which took place in Kafr El-Sheikh, was reported through the Child Helpline 16000, and the general committee for child protection was imminently contracted to investigate. According to the statement the parents vowed to postpone the marriage until the children reach the legal age.\nThe legal age of marriage in Egypt for both males and females was increased to 18 following amendment of Egypt\u2019s Child Law in 2008, which prohibits, but does not criminalise, the registration of child marriages. But despite this legislation, child marriage is still being practised in some regions of the country on a large scale. According to an Egypt Census of 2017, nearly 1 in every 20 girls (4 %) between age 15 to 17 and 1 in every 10 (11%) adolescent girls 15-19 years are either currently married or were married before.\nThe Census found that there were large differentials between the rural and urban residence. Upper Egypt accounted for the highest percentage of child marriages and divorces in the report. Outskirt areas such as the Red Sea, Sinai, Marsa Matrouh and Aswan recorded a much lower 1.3 percent.\nSuch statistics led to the proposal of a new draft law in June 2018 which aims to criminalise child marriage. The draft law would bring with it a penalty of up to one-year imprisonment for those involved, while also taking children away from parents who allow them to be married.\nThe bill also stipulates that the Mazoun (an official who performs the marriage) must notify the General Prosecution if a child marriage is occurring. Failure to do so would be met with job suspension and one-year imprisonment.\nFinally, the bill states that any marriage contract of a person under 18 would not be authenticated and could not be ratified without approval from the family court.\nThe causes of child marriage are complex and varied and the problem is widespread across the Middle East and North Africa where approximately 1 out of 5 girls are married off before the age of 18. Prevalence varies across the region, with rates of 32 % in Yemen and 3 % in Algeria. While the problem is rooted in gender inequality, high levels of poverty and a lack of educational opportunities for girls also exacerbate the practice.\nEconomic conditions have a significant bearing on child marriage as it is used by parents as a way to give their daughter future economic security as well as to reduce the economic burden on the family. While the number of those living in poverty on the continent has declined since 1990 \u2013 and global rates of poverty have more than halved \u2013 Unicef reported last December that since 2000 the number of Egyptians living in poverty has nearly doubled. A report released by UNICEF earlier this year said that poverty rates in Egypt reached 27.8 percent in 2015.\nMassive inflation and a sharp drop in tourism since the 2011 revolution have ushered in a period of austerity in Egypt. Encouraged by the International Monetary Fund, President Abdel Fateh el Sisi\u2019s administration has cut the subsidies for food and fuel that many Egyptians depend on. In 2016, Egypt\u2019s central bank unpegged the Egyptian pound from the dollar, which plummeted overnight to less than half its previous value, resulting in surging costs of imports on which the country relies. Egyptians complain of difficulties in meeting basic needs after several jumps in fuel, medicine and transportation prices.\nINEQUITABLE GENDER NORMS\nChild marriage is closely associated with deeply rooted cultural practices and inequitable gender norms affecting the well-being and exposure to harmful practices such as Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) for adolescent girls. 92% of the female population in Egypt have experienced FGM, illustrating the persistence of patriarchal norms around women\u2019s sexuality.\nAs girls reach adolescence, community norms dictate that they should conform to the roles of wife and mother, and have little freedom to postpone or step outside these roles to complete their education, develop an independent social life and gain economic independence, perpetuating the cycle of illiteracy and poverty. The phenomenon is not exclusive to a particular religion but runs deep in Arab and Egyptian culture.\nIn order to fight against the cultural and traditional roots of child marriage, there is a need to intensify campaigns against this practice based on the cooperation among local government, local media and local NGOs working directly with the communities.\nEducation is even more vital. Girls\u2019 in Egypt have disproportionate access to education. 13% of females and 3% of males aged 10 to 29 have never been to school. The relationship between education and early marriage is bidirectional. Girls with less education are more likely to marry young than their more educated peers. And girls who get married young are typically not afforded the opportunity to continue their education despite the fact that it has been proven that education is the most effective means of empowerment. Education, indeed, enables people to find a job more easily, to earn money, to make the family\u2019s daily life better by improving the living conditions (access to health, medicines, food and clean water, etc.).\nAs well as harming the educational prospects of young girls, child marriage also harms their emotional wellbeing. On a social basis, girls risk facing isolation. Girls who get married early often have to break off their prior social contacts after marriage and cannot maintain connections with persons outside their families. Isolation and a negative environment can result in severe psychological consequences for both mothers and their babies.\nYoung brides also face serious health problems due to their young age, immature bodies, and their inappropriate life of a wife. There is indeed an almost systematic link between child marriage and early child-bearing. Those risky pregnancies are the consequences of the poor access to medical care for the young brides, but also of the husband\u2019s desire to have a child as soon as possible.\nChild marriage is not only an obvious human rights issue, but also a huge population concern as it speeds population growth. Egypt\u2019s population is growing at an unsustainable rate, with 500,000 children born to underage mothers every year, according to the Ministry of Health.\nA five-year national strategy to prevent child marriage was launched in 2014. The process was led by the National Population Council, a governmental body which establishes national population policies and strategies in Egypt. Recognising the need to prioritise child marriage as a health and population issue, the strategy aims to reduce the prevalence of early marriage by 50% within the next five years. It came about against the backdrop of the proposals to lower the minimum age of marriage. There is a political will to end child marriage through opportunities for adolescent girl development and empowerment, particularly in the light of the prevalence levels shown by Egypt\u2019s census 2017.\nThe National for Childhood and Motherhood, with the support of UNICEF, launched a series of the \u2018Policy for Action\u2019 series building on the strong partnership, to bring evidence closer to decision makers for the realization of child-wellbeing through better-informed policy decisions and implementation. The policy briefs cover broad areas of policy work relating to poverty, child protection, health and overall child well-being. The objectives of these policy briefs are to advocate and push for better use of evidence-based policymaking and child-related issue visible in the policy debate.\nThe policy brief stated that in addition to legal reporting mechanisms, there is also a need for strengthening local prevention and response mechanisms. \u201cBesides this, having a unified framework, which provides the basis for coordinating the work of all partners, is also needed to integrate the edits of different stakeholders to achieve a unified goal,\u201d the report said.\nIt also affirmed that criminalising child marriage as Egypt\u2019s new draft bill aims to achieve is needed to effectively move towards ending child marriage and highlighted that legal reform and law enforcement on the criminalisation of perpetrators can also influence changing gender and cultural norms. But to change collective practices and beliefs there is also a need to optimise social and behavioural change opportunities to address child marriage, which includes engaging men to mobilise communities and media to shift perpetual norms. \u201cMaking influencers and religious leaders aware of the negative consequences of child marriage and supporting them to become vocal advocates can have a powerful impact on the perception of child marriage in society,\u201d the report Policy for Action said.\nThe media can also play a key role in bringing the issue of child marriage to public attention. Journalists can use current data to inform human rights advocates and policymakers of the negative aspects of child marriage by covering the issue from multiple perspectives\u2014the illegal violation of girls\u2019 human rights, the mental and physical harm on girls\u2019 development, and the negative consequences for families and societies.\nEducation is the most important factor influencing the age of marriage for women. The Policy for Action report said that special measures need to be taken to reach girls in disadvantaged areas and retain them in education by engaging with the parents and building their ownership in schools in their local communities. It also said that other areas of investment include building schools that are closer to the communities or subsidising transportation costs, as well as creating safe spaces for girls and boys to empower them outside the home.\nUnicef and other international development agencies have partnered with the Egyptian government to expand access to basic education and close the gap between boys\u2019 and girls\u2019 enrolment. \u201cThe effort includes basic infrastructure improvements like better sanitation facilities and working with parents and educators to reduce harassment, to keep adolescent girls in school,\u201d said Nadra Zaki, a child-protection specialist with Unicef in Cairo said.\nIn addition to improving access to education for both girls and boys and eliminating gender gaps in education, families need to be involved in the solution and encourage their daughters to stay in school and ensure a protected transition to adulthood. Increasing the years of compulsory education may be one tactic to prolong the period of time when a girl is in school and unavailable for marriage. Efforts are also needed to address concerns of those who are already married at a young age by ensuring their access to school, so they can fulfil their right to a full education.\nEgypt Child marriage Under-age marriage",

        "raw_content": "U.S. doesn't seek trade war, high official says\nTreasury secretary calls relationship with Beijing 'important' and 'complex'\nWashington wants to reduce its trade deficit with China by raising U.S. exports rather than seeking a confrontation, United States Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told a group of U.S. governors who were in Washington on Tuesday to discuss foreign investment.\n\"Our objective is not to get into a trade war. This is an important relationship. It's a complex relationship, and it's a big market,\" he said.\nSix governors traveled to the U.S. capital to discuss their experiences with foreign companies in their states; four of them talked about Chinese investment specifically.\n\"I do trade missions on a regular basis to China, to Asia and to Europe,\" said Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, who has led seven trade missions to China.\" It is not about transactions. Good trade is about winwin. It's not about win-lose.\n\"We just got a great company, J-Star from China, looking to set up a manufacturing operation in office furniture,\" he said.\nJiecang Linear Motion Technology Co, based in Xinchang, Zhejiang province, operates in the U.S. as J-Star Motion Corp. The maker of office furniture components is planning to build a .9 million manufacturing plant that will employ 122 workers in western Michigan.\nMichigan attracted .3 billion in Chinese investment last year, according to Rhodium Group. At the end of 2016, the state had 123 Chinese operations providing more than 10,100 jobs.\n\"The Chinese companies brought jobs to Michigan, but also it's about building strong relationships between our two countries. I think that makes the world a better place, by doing business together,\" Snyder said.\nThe state of Maine is boosting efforts to lure Chinese investors.\nSeeing an opportunity to target investment in specific areas like food processing, aerospace and renewable energy, the Maine International Trade Center opened an office in Shanghai in 2015.\nMaine Governor Paul LePage's second trip to China in 2014 helped attract an investor in the state's paper industry and has continued to increase investment volume in Maine.\n\"I went to China (with) the intent of getting one investor to put a paper machine in one of our mills. I came back and I have two paper machines. Now we are talking about two more,\" LePage said.\nThe state used to woo investment from Western Europe. Now it is turning to Asia, especially China.\n\"It's a relationship. You have to build it. You have to go and not be afraid to travel and sit down and do the things you need to do,\" LePage said.\nColorado Governor John Hickenlooper said his trip to China in 2015 left a deep impression.\n\"The pace of innovation in China is breathtaking,\" he said.\n\"China is becoming, or already is, one of the global forces in the global economy. We are always trying to refine how we relate to outside investors, especially large investors. So I think China, Japan and India are three major targets that we're trying to talk with all the time,\" Hickenlooper said.\nKentucky Governor Matt Bevin has warmly welcomed Chinese investment. Kentucky attracted .3 billion in Chinese investment in 2017, according to Rhodium Group. There were 28 Chinese operations that employed almost 10,000 people by the end of 2016.\n\"When the company comes, they invest in us and we invest in them. We help them and partner with them. When they create jobs, that is good for our people,\" he said.",

        "raw_content": "Ethics 25 Left\u2013right Politics 136 Morality 77 Philosophy of Law 15\nLaws 61 Political Science 206 Politics 107 Social Sciences 256 Society 221 Society and Social Sciences 324\nPolicy is Different Than Politics Fact\nPolicy and politics aren't the same thing.\nThe Difference Between Party Politics and Policy\nPolitics and policy are different aspects of government. Policy makers must reconcile policy (specific actionable rules) with politics (political ideology, party politics, and policy implementation).[1][2]\nIn other words, Policy is what happens on paper; politics is the art of making it happen. A policy analyst figures out what a desirable policy is, a policy advocate advocates for broad or specific policies, and a politician involves themselves in the dealmaking necessary for policy implementation (and at every step, there are \u201ctrade-offs\u201d).\nAll these aspects of policy making are all aspects of \u201cpolitics,\u201d but for our conversation: policy is an actionable item and politics is the art of getting the policy implemented or determining what types of policies to implement.\nIn this way, politics and policy \u201care different\u201d.\nTIP: Policy follows politics, and politics follows policy. The relationship is complex. They are different, but intertwining concepts.\nPolicy vs Politics. This gives a simple explanation of the difference between policy and politics. The two concepts are so tightly related that I\u2019ve seen some definitions that disagree. The concept of separating the empirical from the rational, the idealist from the realist, or however you want to phrase it, is important. Definitions aside, the mechanics of all this happen in practice and are thus important to discuss.\nExample: Politicians debate what a nation\u2019s policy should be abroad. Policy experts translate some agreed on ideas into legislation. This results in an actionable written and unwritten \u201cforeign policy.\u201d The Federal Reserve\u2019s Monetary Policy is specific actionable rule-set; the ideology of the Fed\u2019s higher-ups and their internal politics help shape their policy and the implementation of their policy.\nThe general problem: Politics is about ideology, deal making, and principles. It deals with human psychology. Policy should concern facts, figures, and functions; it is rational and logical. These two realms don\u2019t always mix well together, especially in an over polarized and politically ideological system, but they are meant to temper each other. We can get into trouble when we try to deal with them in isolation, not just in politics, but in general political conversation.\nTIP: Consider a Party who desires policy due to ideology rather than as a response to data, here a policy could be fully shaped by party politics. For example, what if there was a belief that illegal immigrants were voting and crime was at an all-time high. Politicians could direct policy based on those \u201copinion and beliefs\u201d rather than fact. What a slippery slope. A technocracy describes a government run by data; a theocracy describes a government run by ideology; both of these absolutist types have pitfalls. A mixed government grounded in fact but tempered by party politics is better even if it is tempered by justified and unjustified popular belief and opinion. Mixed-Democracy, not political Demagoguery is the ideal.\nThe Policy Making Process. This video and the video below should be watched in conjunction.\nEight Steps of Policy Making. See how some parts of policy making are about debate and rallying support, and others are about designing specific rules. Loosely speaking, politics is the human aspects and policy describes the rule-sets. Politics and policy are connected every step of the way, and that adds complexity, but each step is either more ideological and political or more rational and mechanic-based. It is like the difference between \u201cpublic opinion\u201d and \u201cpublic policy.\u201d\nTwo Problems of Policy and Politics\nThe above statement alludes to two problems.\nThe Problem of Party Politics and Policy: Political leaders must constantly attempt to square what they want to do ideally, based on either ideology or policy analysis, with what the political system will allow them to do in practice. Not only do they need to solve a problem with well analyzed actionable policy, but they also need other politicians and the public to support a given policy measure. This involves compromise, putting provisions on the chopping block, touting ideology over details, and likely doing some major legislative and political gymnastics with the help of policy analysts on one side and political allies on the other.[3]\nThe Problem of Politicians and Policy Analysts: The first problem may seem tricky on its own, but there is another complication. The disconnect isn\u2019t just between differing political ideologies; there is a disconnect between policy makers and the politicians themselves. If a politician goes into policy making and political debate only thinking and talking about political ideology and party politics, or an analyst goes into policy analysis only thinking about cold hard facts, we get a whole other set of problems and disconnects. We get, for example, insensitive policy built by technocratic analysts or economically troublesome policy built by ideological-minded politicians.\nPut the disconnect between political ideologies together with the disconnect between ideology and policy in general, and we have a recipe for trouble, not just in politics, but in the rising political debate among citizens. See below.\nSocial Policy: Crash Course Government and Politics #49. Social policy is a good lens through which to understand the aspects of policy and politics.\nIs \u201cprinciple\u201d a thing of policy or politics? A principle is like a personal moral policy. Both principles and policies are rule-sets of sorts. Principles are more ethereal; policies are generally more specific. One could use this term in different ways, so it is a useful word, but not the ideal word to define policy or politics in isolation. Learn about the nature and importance of principles.\nTIP: While reading this article, think about the fact that often when politics is debated on TV or social media what is being debated is ideology and party politics and not policy. We rarely talk about a specific rule and its affects. More often we talk about an overarching subject. For example, the debate is about ObamaCare, Single Payer, or Getting the Government out of Healthcare can be discussed as concepts. We rarely talk about the mechanics of the individual mandate and its impact on the budget. Thus, there isn\u2019t just a disconnect between politics and policy in policy making, but in the overarching political discussion. Watch out for getting caught up in an ideological argument; it is hard to combat ideology with facts and figures.\nTIP: In my research, the most insightful article I found on policy and politics was Teaching Public Policy: Linking Policy and Politics Lawrence M. Mead New York University. I often use concepts from that work and suggest reading it.\nDefinitions of Public Policy, Politics, and Policy Analysis\nBefore moving on, let\u2019s offer some clearer definitions to understand how policy and politics are different and where they connect.\nPublic Policy can be defined as, \u201cspecific actionable rules like written laws and unofficial policies like the Monroe Doctrine\u201d or \u201ccourses of action, regulatory measures, laws, and funding priorities concerning a given topic promoted by a governmental entity or its representatives.\u201d[4]\nPolitics can be defined as, \u201cthe art of statesmanship\u201d or \u201cthe art of decision making, debating the ideological aspects of government, and political dealmaking within the state.\u201d[5]\nPolicy Analysis can be defined as, \u201cthe study of what government should do about public problems\u201d or \u201cthe science of analysis of existing policy, which is analytical and descriptive; it is meant to explain policies and their development. It may also be defined as the analysis of new policy, which is prescriptive; involved with formulating policies and proposals.\u201d[6]\nThe politician wants to squeeze blood from a stone; the analyst figures out if that is possible; the policy is the method for the extraction process. The politician works within the sphere of psychology; the analyst works within the sphere of facts. Both are ideally guided by morals and ethics.\nPoliticians and policy analysts work together to create the best policies that they can muster, given the political system.\nNote here, I didn\u2019t say \u201ccreate the best policy,\u201d I said, \u201ccreate the best policy they can\u2026 given the political system.\u201d\nThe problem is, facts, data, outcomes, 10-year costs, ancillary effects, and more can easily take a backseat to entrenched prejudices like \u201cbecause the Gentleman from Nebraska won\u2019t vote on a Bill with a Public Option in it. Period; because it might bring socialism.\u201d\nNo one can analyze or debate their way out of a situation in which a stance is ideological. Neither arguments nor facts can overcome purely political obstinance. In this, we find a bizarre problem of governments \u201cthe disconnect between policy and politics.\u201d\nHowever, on the flip side. One can analyze facts all day, but if they don\u2019t factor in core human emotions and ideological issues, the result will be something almost designed to fall on deaf ears. Thus, the answer isn\u2019t in one or the other; it is both together.\n1-2 Policy Analysis Context PA. Policy analysis is \u201canalytical\u201d and \u201cfact-based,\u201d unlike politics which can be driven by more subjective principles and the realities of party politics and public opinion.\nTIP: Loosely speaking, Aristotle called a city-state a Polis and the ideal city-state a Polity. In these terms, you can think of politics as the art of state and policy making and analysis as the science of the state.\nAn Example of Policy and Politics\nObamaCare is a political term. The idea that \u201cBig Government\u201d shouldn\u2019t be in healthcare is politics, and so is the idea that \u201ceveryone should be covered.\u201d Those ideas can direct policy, but they are mostly just political. The ideas of taxes being spread between entities who benefit, using a mandate, providing government tax credits, all speak to policy, but they are part ideological and political. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as written and passed, was a law, but even that wasn\u2019t pure policy. Later, after policy analysts and policy experts turned the ACA\u2019s provisions into rules, those actionable and specific rules are \u201cpolicy in the truest sense.\u201d\nHere one could think about this by stepping into a policy analyst\u2019s shoes. The more specific the policy and rules, the more specifically things can be analyzed. The more specific the policy, the less it is in the realm of politics and the more it is in the realm of policy.\nTIP: See a fact-check of the CNN \u201cObamaCare\u201d debate between Ted Cruz and Bernie Sanders. The focus was on broad ideological ideas, and specific policies weren\u2019t often mentioned. Part of the problem is communicating ideas to a mass audience. This is something a politician must deal with, but a policy analyst doesn\u2019t always have to. See: CMS-9929-P DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES 45 CFR Parts 147, 155, and 156 CMS-9929-P RIN 0938-AT14 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; Market Stabilization for an example of \u201cpolicy proposals.\u201d That is what \u201cpolicy\u201d looks like in one of its many stages before it turns into final rules. It does not make a great talking point, but it does stand to change the rule-sets we live by.\nTIP: Politicians vote on policy, but policy makers and politicians are typically two different entities. A senator will direct a committee to draft legislation, then bring that legislation to the floor, and then vote on it, but it was the backroom committee who drafted the legislation and a background committee who analyzed the policy. Then after the law is passed, when a specific agency writes additional actionable rules based on the standing policy, we have another level of policy. It is pure policy, with little-to-no-room for politics.\nTIP: In general one might assume that \u201ckeep America Safe\u201d is an \u201cactionable policy,\u201d but that couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. \u201cKeep America Safe\u201d is a broad and semantic political mission statement. For a general statement to become policy, it must be translated into law (a form of public policy), and then that law must be translated into actionable rules (actionable public policy).\nThe Synthesis of Politics and Policy\nIn the 1960\u2019s, as the United States Government grew in complexity and people became dissatisfied with policy, public policy arose as an academic field.[7]\nIn this politics and policy split.\nThe rational, analytical analysts analyzed the world of facts, and the ideological politicians played word games in the world of ideas.\nThis uncrossing of the fork makes sense in that specialization has been shown to be effective, but it also speaks to the disconnect between policy and politics.\nInstead of purely separating the fields, logic and Lawrence M. Mead both agree.\n\u201cFar better would be a combined approach to public policy research and teaching that brings policy and politics together. Scholars should first argue how to solve a public problem on the merits, that is, on a policy analytic basis and without concessions to politics. They should then go on to discuss impediments that might arise from the legislative or administrative process, and how these might be handled. In fact, they should forecast the tension between policy argument and politics that policy makers would face if they espoused these proposals in office (Mead, 1995).\u201d\nIn other words, Hume\u2019s political fork should be actively crossed despite the specialization. So what if Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) brings a snowball to the Senate, as long as he has some policy notes etched on the back of it. Likewise, who cares if Gruber nerds out on the ACA, if he has a copy of Utilitarianism sitting on the desk.\nIf those involved in the rational sciences fail to factor in morality and practicality and politics, and if those involved in the political arts don\u2019t factor in the aspects of policy, then we get a disconnect.\nThis can be bad in a few ways, but I think anyone paying attention can see the way in which it is the worst. That is when our debates become about ideology instead of policy.\nI sit at Thanksgiving,\nThat one crazy Uncle won\u2019t stop making ideological points about climate change.\nNothing is accomplished.\nThe above is a metaphor for what happens in party politics and on the Senate floor. If politics is all about \u201csmall government vs. big government ideology\u201d and policy is all about \u201crational facts and figures,\u201d but no one ever fuses the two, then we can expect that neither will be in their most effective form.\nIf policy analysts were carved from the politician\u2019s rib, it probably makes sense to get them working together again. Ideologically, I\u2019m all for individualism and specialization, but if an entire party is going to ignore the CBO and the CBO an entire party, what is the point of all the hard work?\nIntro to Public Policy.\nPolicy and politics aren\u2019t the same thing, but they are closely related.\nAnyone who ever had an argument about an issue of government only to frustratingly argue ideology and party politics and talking points instead of facts and policy knows, this is a big deal issue that will keep hitting us over the head until we figure out some sort of practical or ethical standard that moves us to the next level.\nSee the citations for links to really smart discussions on the difference between policy and politics, how to pair them, and how to understand the mind-numbly frustrating disconnect between them in practice.\nPolicy vs. Politics \u2013 I promise you there is a difference!\nPolicy Paradox: The Art of Political Decision Making \u2013 PDF description of Policy Paradox: The Art of Political Decision Making (Revised Edition) by Deborah Stone\nTeaching Public Policy: Linking Policy and Politics Lawrence M.

        "raw_content": "\u201cThe Absence\u201d by Bill Hussey (Reviewed by Robert Thompson)\nOfficial Bill Hussey Website\nOfficial Bloody Books Website\nOrder \u201cThe Absence\u201d HERE\nRead Fantasy Book Critic\u2019s Review of \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d\nAUTHOR INFORMATION: Bill Hussey gave up a career in law to study creative writing at Sheffield Hallam University where he earned a Masters Degree, and is now the author of two novels: \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d and \u201cThe Absence\u201d.\nPLOT SUMMARY: It was a tragic accident. That is what his family tells Joe Nightingale, but the teenager is tormented by visions of his mother\u2019s death.\nNow, seven months after the fatal car crash, the Nightingales receive some unexpected news. They have inherited a house from a distant relative\u2014the reclusive Muriel Sutton. Desperate to renew old bonds, the family decides to spend the summer at Daecher\u2019s Mill. Here they hope to escape the shadows of the past.\nBut dark mysteries await them. Who are the guests that have been brought here over the years? Why did the late Muriel Sutton murder her strange little sister, Alice? And what is the connection between Joe Nightingale and this lonely Fenland millhouse?\nThere is also a presence in Daecher\u2019s Mill. It looks and sounds like a little girl, but its eyes are old and its voice runs like water. It is a weaver of shadows. A creature of Absence\u2026\nCLASSIFICATION: Like Bill Hussey\u2019s debut, \u201cThe Absence\u201d is old-school horror that marries psychological chills with graphic gruesomeness. Though once again reminiscent of early Barker, King, Koontz, et cetera, \u201cThe Absence\u201d also reminded me a bit of J-Horror such as The Ring, The Grudge and Dark Water. Highly recommended to any fan of the genre\u2026\nFORMAT/INFO: \u201cThe Absence\u201d is 448 pages long divided over three Parts, fifty-four numbered chapters, a Prologue/Epilogue, and several Interludes. Narration is in the third-person via Richard Nightingale and his two sons Joe and Bobby, as well as several minor POVs including Samantha Jones. \u201cThe Absence\u201d is self-contained. April 23, 2009 marks the UK Trade Paperback publication of \u201cThe Absence\u201d via Bloody Books, a horror imprint of Beautiful Books Limited. Cover designed by Head Design.\nANALYSIS: Bill Hussey\u2019s \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d was not only the best horror novel that I read in all of 2008, but it was also one of the year\u2019s best debuts. So what would the author do for an encore? Well how about spinning another frightening tale of horror, mystery and the supernatural in \u201cThe Absence\u201d\u2026\n\u201cThe Absence\u201d shares a number of similarities with \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d such as the use of mythology, folktales, and nursery rhymes; a mystery that unfolds through flashbacks; and themes that revolve around sins and dark secrets, but there are two key differences between the books. The first is the writing which is stronger in \u201cThe Absence\u201d, particularly the characters:\nThough Joe, Bobby and Richard Nightingale are less striking than the larger-than-life Crowman and the cursed hero Jack Trent from \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d, the protagonists in \u201cThe Absence\u201d are much more compelling because they are just regular people tormented by the cruelties of life\u2014nearly 18-year-old Joe blames himself for the death of their mother in a car accident seven months ago, 15-year-old Bobby is haunted by the recent suicide of a former friend, and Richard is an alcoholic who grieves for a wife that he lost many years before the accident. Each suffers greatly from the pain and guilt that they bear, and it is these emotions that are the driving force behind \u201cThe Absence\u201d. But this only works because the author\u2019s portrayal of the Nightingales\u2014as well as the other characters in the book\u2014is so convincing. In short, the characters in \u201cThe Absence\u201d are characters that readers can relate to more easily than those in \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d, thus making the horror they\u2019re experiencing in the book all the more terrifying\u2026\nProse meanwhile, is once again descriptive and stylish, while the plot is engaging and will surprise the reader a time or two. Pacing though remains slow hampered by numerous flashbacks, and the author continues to utilize several instantly recognizable scare tactics, but overall I felt that Bill Hussey\u2019s writing in \u201cThe Absence\u201d was more confident and accomplished.\nThe second key difference between the two books is in their subject matter. Where \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d mixed horror, fantasy and some creative ideas like metempsychosis and a transdimensional library into an epic battle of good versus evil, \u201cThe Absence\u201d is a more straightforward horror tale complete with played out elements like the \u2018haunted house with a dark secret\u2019\u2014or in this case, a haunted mill\u2014and the \u2018evil supernatural presence\u2019. Sure, the book features some interesting marshland folklore like the bog spirit Tiddy Mun and the intimate examination of guilt and sorrow is indeed chilling, but for the most part \u201cThe Absence\u201d lacked the imagination of the author\u2019s first novel and was more predictable. Plus, I was disappointed with the way Tiddy Mun was overcome which I thought lacked explanation and logic.\nCONCLUSION: From a personal standpoint, I did not enjoy \u201cThe Absence\u201d quite as much as \u201cThrough a Glass, Darkly\u201d and felt that it was less creative, but I did think the new novel was better written and executed, not to mention much more haunting emotionally. Best of all, \u201cThe Absence\u201d is undeniable proof that Bill Hussey is no one-hit wonder and that the author is going to be a force to reckon with in the genre for years to come\u2026\nPlinydogg said...\nGreat review! I agree with you on all points and also belong to the minority of people who preferred TAGD over The Absence even though I loved them both.\nThanks Plinydogg :) This is my last review, so ejoy!",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Modding Civ IV Age of Empires III date set \u2192\nI am in the process of reviewing a strategy game that is all about the multiplayer. Its setup, premise and design emphasize that the game is meant to be played with and against other people. It also has one major oversight that has the potential to cripple its multiplayer base. No chat.\nSince I\u2019m still in the evaluation stage, I\u2019ll leave the game unnamed. Plus, my explicit opinions on the game are the property of someone else for the moment. But the omission of such a standard interface tool is jaw-droppingly mad.\nI\u2019ve played a lot of terrible games \u2013 many with tiny budgets. War Times has a chat option. Pax Romana does, too. It is such a basic multiplayer tool that wargames like The Falklands War: 1982 use it. The prospect of playing any game with a multiplayer component without a chat tool is almost too ridiculous to imagine. Hell, Literati has chat.\nAnd its not like the developer in questions is new. They\u2019ve been around for a few years and have a nice stable of games to their credit. All had chat.\nIn what circumstances would you not want the players to communicate via a chat interface? Is it conceivable that you would not want players to interact? If a game can only have two players and they are locked in a duel to the death from the moment the game begins, you might be able to get away with tossing chat. You wouldn\u2019t be able to taunt your enemies, but you always have the postgame for that. But when a game gets bigger than two people, not including chat cuts off the possibility of diplomacy and coordination.\nMaybe you don\u2019t want your players to work together. If a game is designed as a purely solo, survival of the fittest, Darwin on steroids type of strategy game then you could probably justify the choice on pure game design merits.\nInformation wants to be free, though, so players will get frustrated if they can\u2019t trade intelligence or offer support against the big dog in town. Even if a game is set up as last man standing, chat allows the weaker player (usually me) to buy time through persuasion and puppy-dog eyes.\nThe game in question must have been designed without chat for a good reason, but I\u2019ll be damned if I can think of it. Any game designers want to help me out here? When is communication between players something you choose to design out?",

        "raw_content": "Thank you for taking the time to answer some questions from the FM Legion of fans. I am thrilled to see that you have new material out (only sorry I missed out on the autographed copies!:) and I can't wait to hear it.\nI've been co-hosting a Fleetwood Mac Marathon (All day of FM + solo artists etc) at 88.3FM The Sting for about three years now, and all the time the same questions came up - What ever happened to....? Just a few from me then -\n1) When you DO tour:), would you cover any of your FM period material? 2) Did you have anything to do with the CHAIN box - in any capacity? 3) In a \"perfect world\" - would you be willing to play on a track with \"all\" the members of FM? How bout a tour with Billy Burnette, Rick Vito, you and Bob W.?! 4) Any touring memories of Cleveland? 5) I think you should be included in the RRHOF - as the Rolling Stones and Greatful Dead have included \"non-original\" members in thier class - any thoughts?\nMany thanks - and we'll \"see\" you on the airwaves this summer. (Todd Richards, Cleveland, Ohio, USA)\nPanic ye not - there's a second batch of (autographed) CDs in preparation, prior to an official release in the New Year.\nQ1: Re FM material: I might do a few early Greeny ones, as they're so cool to play, and classics in their own right.\nQ2: Re the Chain box set: I think I must have had something to do with it, as I get a royalty cheque from Warners every once in a while :). Wasn't \"Forever\" on there?\nQ3: In a perfect world, it'd be fantastic to play with the band at large, before it's all too late.\nQ4: I answered just now that touring is all a blur... not much time to absorb the scenery.\nQ5: Any recognition is welcome, especially in this business; the wilderness can be rather cold. But once again, what is the RRHOF? I'm not sure what it is - is there any money in it? :) Does it matter? What's more important to me is my music reaching the audience.\nTalking of which, any chance of a spin on your station? Thanks in advance :).\nHi again Bob+Penguin! I forgot one - What's your favorite song on the new Robbie Robertson \"Contact From The Underworld Of Redboy\"? - I think the album is fantastic! (Todd Richards, Cleveland, Ohio, USA)\nHi again Todd,\nTracks 4, 7, 8 and 9 - can't remember the titles - are really grabbing my attention. But this album has so much content and depth my preferences are beginning to change. Overall, it's just a marvellous piece of work.\nWell, I just wanted to let you know that I got your new cd and have played it three times since yesterday. I love it...especially, \"There's a Heaven Above,\" \"Letting Go,\"(Love, love, love that)and \"All the Love in the World.\" It really is a beautiful recording.\nWhen you plan a recording, do you try to choose a general theme for it...like trying to summarize a whole section of your life in one work, or is it a more random process? I'm always interested in the creative process of writers...so, can you give us a little insight into yours?\nThank you again for this lovely cd! (Regina, Bronx, New York, USA)\nHere I am sitting in Hove (Brighton), England - I just think it's amazing that's someone's sitting in New York enjoying my new CD! I'm really glad you're enjoying it.\nYes, I suppose one does try to create a general thread throughout the work. I don't consciously try to summarise where my life is, at that particular junction; although I sometimes notice in retrospect that I have done - an unconscious expression. The random does come into the equation, but does require a certain manipulation/control; it's a bit of both. The ideal, I've noticed, is when the mind is free of all the garbage, an empty moment, ideal for filling. In fact this is particularly relevant to \"Letting Go\", which came in such a moment. Perhaps the title is appropriate!\nI hope the rest of the Bronx enjoys the CD as much as you - play it loud!\nHi Bob, How would you describe playing guitar with Bob Welch ? Was it fun ? (Warren Rutledge, Huntsville, Alabama, USA)\nIt's always fun playing with Bob. His ideas are always stimulating. Playing guitar with him is fun as well :).\nThe thing I like is that he allows you to take his ideas and run with them. Some writers are possessive of an idea; he's quite the opposite and welcomes creative input.\nHi Bob, on your latest cd, you and Max Middleton create a sound that really works well. Are you working with him again on your new songs? I too would like to see what you and Bob Welch would produce. One last question, is the new cd you are currently working on as eclectic as the one you just released or does it tend to be more focused in a musical style? Thanks for sharing your great talents and I am looking forward to your future endeavors. (Carl Swift, Sierra Madre, California, USA)\nRight now I'm in writing mode; questions re recording will be easier to answer when I get into that mode. But yes, I think it's 99% certain that Max will be involved; we've worked so much together over the years, it would be odd not to include him.\nSo far the music for the new CD is simply presenting itself; I'm almost sitting back and watching it develop. It's too early to take control of its potential nature. So - watch this space.\nI look forward to your reviews of my future endeavours :).\n1) What was it like working with Sandy Denny?\n2) How did you come to know her? Did you know her well?\n3) Did you tour with her?\n4) Is there a fond memory you have of her you can share?\nThanks! (Tim Bucci, Springfield, Illinois, USA)\nPlease see my previous answer for detail on the Sandy Denny question. Perhaps a footnote in passing: I came to know her via the recording session scene in London. She came to hear about my work, and simply approached me and asked if I'd play guitar on her sessions. I didn't know her well, but it didn't take long to realise what a charming person she was. And of course a very fine singer. I didn't tour with her, as she died soon after the sessions I mentioned.\nHi Mr. Weston! I'm glad your latest CD is a hit! I noticed in one of your responses you mentioned you met Billy Burnette. Have you ever worked with him (either with Fleetwood Mac or on a solo project?) What was he like? (Michele Mategrano, Burbank, Illinois, USA)\nHello Ms Mategrano :),\nI love your optimism re the CD! No, I've never worked with Billy Burnette; just in passing we would jam at Christine's from time to time. I didn't know him well enough to comment on his persona. Sorry I can't be more informative.\nHello again Bob. First off I would like to complement you on your new CD. It is truly beautiful music; in my world it would be required listening. :-) I've been thinking of the reasons I stated playing guitar back in the stone age. It's a long story. I won't bore you with the details, but it leads me to my first question. Why did you start playing quitar in the first place? How old were you when you started? Lastly, I would like to know how you approach song writing. If you will, could you discuss your creative process? Thanks a lot! Have a wonderful holiday season! God Bless! (Russell B. Wright, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA)\nThanks very much for the comments on the CD. I'm really pleased you're enjoying it.\nI started playing guitar when I was 12. The guitar was becoming the spearhead of a cultural revolution in music at that time. Before that it was boring trumpets (as distinct from e.g. Miles); the guitar took over for sure here in the UK, and I think in the US too. We had the Shadows; you had Santo and Johnny, the Ventures etc; all-guitar instrumental bands. Like a lot of other kids I just fell in love with the electric guitar - when I saw and heard a Fender Stratocaster for the first time I was hooked.\nAt the risk of being elusive I'd rather refer you to a previous response on my writing process - which I feel answers your question completely.\nHave a great holiday season yourself!\nHi again, Bob! I've gotten the new album in the mail, and I love it! Very eclectic. And I know you're dying to talk about it, so I'll give you a good doozy of a question: What were the inspirations of each of the non-instrumental songs? I know that's a pretty loaded question, but I'd love to know! Also, have you gone back and looked at Bob Welch's Q&A, re: Q6 of my last writing to you? Thanks for your time, Bob! (Jim Wagner, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, USA)\nHi again Jim,\nThe opening track, \"There's a Heaven\", was inspired by some personal trauma my sister had to go through a while ago, which is reflected in the lyrics - as you no doubt appreciate, life isn't always a bowl of cherries :). \"Letting Go\" was another example of personal experience, which I directly interpreted to song - somehow I find it cathartic to put on paper what initially is an abstract emotion, be it good or bad. The other tracks - some songs are pure fantasy; rather like being a story teller, creating characters that can be whatever you want them to be.\nI'm afraid my schedules have been so pressing in the last month I've hardly had the time to read a newspaper, let alone Bob Welch's War and Peace :). (And quel peace!) I'll try to respond before the end of the Q&A.\nI was wondering if you remember the song \"Forever\"? I noticed that you, Bob Welch and John McVie wrote it. Was the drum sound on that track a drum machine? If so, what model and make was it? What do you remember about writing that song? Thinking back to the Bob Welch Live at the Roxy show, Why did Mick not perform with you on \"Remember Me\"? Oh, and by the way, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family and to Bob Welch Too!! (Tom Kirby, Roswell, New Mexico, USA)\nRe \"Forever\": it is a drum machine - if memory serves, if was one of the more up-market models, called a \"Beverley\". In fact I'd really like to find one now; that retro sound can be kinda stimulating when writing and recording :).\nI remember that John and I developed the basic riffs to the song, and couldn't quite get it to arrive at its final point; so we called in the Wizard Welch who did the business. He was great like that; he could always pull something out of the fire, which otherwise might have turned to ashes.\nIf Mick didn't play drums on the Roxy show, who did??? The question was a surprise - I thought he had, but maybe I'm losing it :).\nThanks for the kind felicitations!\nHi again, Bob. I've spent the last week or so listening to THERE'S A HEAVEN and I really enjoy it. There is some really interesting stuff on there and it's really cool to have \"reconnected\" with you (on a listening level) after having only two albums (PENGUIN and MYSTERY TO ME) -- both of which I've enjoy tremendously for the last 25 years and both of which benefitted mightily from your input. Anyway, I'm glad for something new from you. I really dig the tabla and acoustic stuff on the album and someone should get the title song to Annie Lennox right away. Your singing is really nice as well. There's a lot opf soul on your album. Here's my question, apropos of a vibe I get from your new CD: Do you like Ry Cooder's playing? Although you and he have different styles, I'm picking up on something similar in the slide/bottleneck playing. Maybe it's just the mic technique -- anything to that? Anyway, I dig THERE'S A HEAVEN and I'm looking forward to hearing what you do next. Thanks Bob. (Rock Stamberg, Riverside, Connecticut, USA)\nI'm very pleased you're enjoying the CD, and I'm determined it won't be another 25 years before you hear the next one :). We're aiming for a follow-up sometime within the next year.\nOf course Ry Cooder is The Man on slide. And straight guitar, come to that. David Lindley is another wiz. Roy Rogers, Sonny Landreth... one could go on and on. As far as influence - blimey - it's impossible to create in a vacuum, so one is constantly picking up and gleaning bits and pieces everywhere. To go right back to the root, I'll mention one man's name: Lowell George. As a footnote, it seems Bonnie Raitt carries the torch eloquently from him. What a great player she is.\nI found your Annie Lennox comment interesting; I can hear that quite easily. Who knows...?\nDjango (presumably of the Reinhardt (?) variety) keeps coming up here...Rick Vito mentioned a liking, Lindsey B cites some reference, and the Mavericks also express interest...could you identify a handful of 'definitive' tracks or albums that you'd often go back to? just curious ;) hope Santa's kind to yer. (Fred Coppie, Pica, Cumbria, United Kingdom)\nAre you sure \"Pica\" is in the UK?? Sounds suspiciously American to me.... :)\nAs for Django's albums, not really - they release and re-release so many of his works it's hard to keep track (haha). Specific tracks for me are primarily: \"Mystery Pacific\", rather like Hendrix on acoustic, especially the end section; \"Nuages\" of course, one of his classics; \"Vipers Dream\"; \"Two tickets / Deux billets\"; just to mention a few.\nMe again! Stupid throwaway question: I was just looking at your signature on my copy of the new album. Are you left-handed?\nAnd a real question: What is your songwriting process like when writing instrumentals? Do they usually come out of you just fooling around on the guitar and coming up with some sounds that you like, or are there usually emotional drives behind them? (Jim Wagner, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, USA)\nI had to laugh; I'm impressed with your observation - alimentary, my dear Watson! I am left-handed, but hasten to add I play guitar right-handed. I don't know why :).\nRe instrumentals: usually it's a seed of inspiration, often very little, then the work comes in, moulding it into some shape or form until I'm genuinely satisfied - one knows when it's cooked. The initial seed quite often comes from playing around with some little melody or a riff, and then applying the emotional drives to that. As an abstract question it's quite difficult to put it into 3-dimensional terms; I hope this answer will do.\nHi Bob, I have never heard any material from being as your past albums are obsolete where I live. Anyway, besides Mystery To Me's 'Forever' I've never heard you actually sing before. Your album is indeed a surprise and fantastic, I personally flipped at the overall compatiblities of the different cultures of music blended. No question, just wanted to let you know that my first listen to one of your own album's was definitely worth it. If you get a chance, read my review that I submitted the Penguin, I explain a lot more. Thanks for the Q&A. (Jeff Baer, Thorofare, New Jersey, USA)\nThanks for your review. I found the comparisons intriguing; I always find it surprising when my music is reviewed from another's perspective. Glad you enjoy the vocals! I'm also pleased you found it culturally compatible :) Thanks again.\nBob.....RE the \"ice cream van\".... Did I ever give you a ride in that thing? The worst thing about it was it had a hole in the muffler, and a hole in the floorboard which let exhaust gas into the cab. I had to drive to London and back with my head out the window to keep from passing out ! Also, I played your new CD last nite...excellent stuff Boob, maybe my favorite record this year...next to \"Bob Welch Looks At Bop \" ! ;-) of course.Very atmospheric indeed dahling ! (Bob Welch, \"Naish-Veal\", Tennessee)\nNo, I didn't get a ride in the ice cream van :(... it was easier to take the train from Haslemere! I always thought you were a bit spaced after a drive in that vehicle... :). Or was it the ice cream??? hmmm...\nJust been playing \"Looks at Bop\" - it's a really \"cool\" CD, it's gonna take a lot of listens as there's so much content to absorb. Initial impressions: love the guitar; the CD is again very atmospheric/modern... Enjoyed the lyric on \"Hustler\" :). I'll be playing it a lot over Xmas. Hopefully talk more in the Noo Year.\nHi thank you for doing this Q and A. When you were in Long John Baldrey's band, what other musicians did you work with? What do you think of the Bare Trees album? Do you play any other instruments besides guitar? Thank you. (Edna, Boston, Massachusetts, USA)\nRe Baldry: the main musician that springs to mind was Baldry's piano player for many years, indeed from the Steampacket days with Rod Stewart; a Scotsman named Ian Armitt. As for the others - there was a constant stream of talent that came through that school of music; rather like Alexis Korner, another granddaddy of British blues, Baldry had a knack of developing as yet undiscovered but talented players. As an example, young Rod Stewart, as I mentioned above.\nRe Bare Trees: not my favourite FM album; very well played, but a trifle too melancholic for my taste.\nRe other instruments: a little banjo, harmonica, autoharp, and a very little piano (6\" tall).\nGreeting Sir Robert.\n1. Any chance of a bare bones disc just you and your axe and your vocals?\n2.If Max does a cd or Lianne, please post it-- they are both wonderful.\n3.Why don't most English fans like the post green mac.(the yank welch )....\n4.What your take on the time mac of Bramlett, Mason, Burnette-- ever hear them?\n5.Keep the music playing!!!\nThanks BOB. (Bill Seamans, Buffalo, Minnesota, USA)\nSir Robert, huh? I must have slept through the New Year's Honours List... Nevertheless it has a certain ring to it :).\nQ1: Bare bones: yeah, there's every chance of a bare bones disc. Not sure where/when, but it's a good plan.\nQ2: Max & Lianne: I'll let you know as soon as I know. No plans for the moment that I know of.\nQ3: I'm not aware that English fans have rebuffed the post-Green Mac. It's my impression that they've sold rather well over the years in the UK.\nQ4: Bramlett/Mason/Burnette Mac: never really got into them, thought there were too many guitars, saying too little... since you asked!\nQ5: You betcha!\nHi, Bob! Thank you so much for doing this! I am in my mid-20's and discovered FM about ten years ago, long after your tenure ended. Because of that and the fact that you have not released much material, you have always been a mystery to me (no pun intended). Your new CD is amazing and gets better the more familiar I get with it, and it sheds light on who you are. I look forward to more in the future.\nRegarding your work with FM, I consider Penguin and Mystery To Me classic albums in their own ways, and they include some of the most interesting Mac music. Gems like \"Caught in the Rain\" and your acoustic work on Christine's \"The Way I Feel\" and \"Why\" stand out to me especially.\nMac fans have been so lucky in the last couple years, starting with the \"reunion,\" Stevie's boxed set, Peter's comeback, and new CD's by Rick, Dave Mason, Welch, Billy, and you. Thank you for coming back into our lives! Good luck to you! (Jonathan Donahue, New York City, New York, USA)\nIt gives me a lot of joy to hear that my work has been appreciated to such a degree. Thanks for your comments. Here's to the future then!\nHi Bob. Thanks for doing this, its really interesting. My question is after the huge success of the Rumours incarnation of Fleetwood Mac, did you notice a large increase in your royalty cheques as people started to discover and purchase earlier mac albums that you played on? Were you able to live off the money you made with the Mac or did you have to get a job or anything like that at any point? (god forbid!) Thanks in advance! (The Nepotist, Toronto, Canada)\nHi Mr Nepotist,\nRe royalties after Rumours: no, it didn't affect me directly. There was more of an increase when all the FM material was transferred to CD. Re your other question: I've always been fortunate enough to make a living as a working musician; quite an achievement in itself, I guess.\nClosing Comments: Bob Weston has provided closing comments to us as an audio clip! It is available in several formats below:\nReal Media Clip [ 66 KB ]\nMP3 Clip [ 216 KB ]\nWave Clip [ 1357 KB ]\nThese are all the same so to save bandwidth, please select the smallest one that will work for you. Thanks!\nAlso from Bob Weston:\nI'd like to thank my agent, my bank manager, my chiropodist, my counsellor.... But seriously, thank you all for your very keen and welcome interest in my latest project \"There's a Heaven\". I was a little bit nervous awaiting the first reviews; you never know if it's going to be a \"stiff\" :). But your warm and constructive comments have allayed any fears of that. I look forward to its full launch early in the New Year, encouraged by the response it's had so far.",

        "raw_content": "Europe \u2013 Asia \u2013 Africa\nDisability: a life together\nDisability is always different, depending on the type of handicap one has and the country in which one lives.\nThere has been much progress and it is still continuing from a scientific point of view and in terms of inclusive policies and barriers that have been demolished. What has not gone away is the pain of the more severe forms and if one lives with this type of disability in a hostile country, that is poor and is developing slowly, this pain does not diminish but on the contrary, it makes one\u2019s problems worse.\nThis is why a few years ago the FAI started supporting the message and the communities set up by Jean Vanier, a Canadian philosopher and philanthropist who, in 1964, founded \u201cL\u2019Arche\u201d and \u201cFoi et Lumi\u00e8re\u201d, for people with disabilities.\nThere are over 140 Arche communities in more than 30 countries. In these communities people with severe and mainly intellectual disabilities live as in a family and the same way as the other people who have chosen to live in the community to assist them. These places testify to the possibility of renewal and human transformation.\nThe FAI has supported the L\u2019Arche communities in various and progressive ways since 2009. It helped the community of Al Fulk, in Egypt and then in 2017 it supported the opening of a second community in Alexandria.\nIn Kenya, the St. Martin Community Trust wanted to have and therefore set up the L\u2019Arche community and in fact there are two residential communities, Effatha and Betania, which the FAI supported during their first years of activity.\nIn Palestine, the Bethlehem communities stand out as non-residential, day-time, highly productive communities. In Ma\u2019an Iil-Hayat and in the new Dar Salah centre the people work with wool, which is often bought from Bedouin families of the people living in the communities. What they make is sold throughout the world and they make a good profit.\nThese are communities with a proactive and inclusive attitude to the area around them and they always go the extra mile. The core members from the Bethlehem communities go to the oncology department of the state hospital as volunteers, bringing relief and smiles to the patients who are waiting for chemotherapy.\nThis is how the message of the founder Jean Vanier is kept alive. It invites us to cultivate sincere openness to the wishes of other people, to be aware of the beauty that comes from ordinary things, to support other people in a constructive way and to concentrate on \u201cbeing with\u201d, being physically close to the people who are in the greatest difficulty.\nFor the future, we are planning on continuing to support L\u2019Arche communities, maybe the ones in countries that are exacerbated by war, or by deep socio-economic inequality. We are thinking of Syria, where the community still exists despite years of conflict, and needs us to respond to their call.",

        "title": "Reg Park inducted into the South African Sports Hall of Fame",
        "raw_content": "Reg Park inducted into the South African Sports Hall of Fame\nAuthor Topic: Reg Park inducted into the South African Sports Hall of Fame (Read 887 times)\nIn 2009, near 14 months after the pass away of Reg's, his son Jon Jon wrote a good memorie of the feats of his father, not only as a bodybuilder, that was well know by everbody, but as a coach: his psycologie work with his son when he was a olympic swimmer, his reabilitation work with the injuries and finally, his fine instict and knowledge to be a pioner in the gym industry in SA.\nThe Park family, friends and fans are delighted that the South African Sports Hall Of Fame has recognized the achievements and contributions that Reg has made to South Africa. It is a great pity that he wasn't able to receive this award whilst he was alive, however the Park family greatly appreciates this recognition.\nWhen one thinks of Reg Park, one tends to immediately thinks of him as a bodybuilder and although this is fundamentally correct there was far more to him. As a bodybuilder, his competitive career lasted twenty seven years and that takes some thinking when you consider that he won a world title (Mr Universe) every seven years, over 21 years... How many athletes in any field, can you think of that have achieved this.\nOne also needs to consider that all this was achieved without the use of anabolic steroids which unfortunately is so prevalent in sports today. Reg was highly principled and had the courage of his convictions to put his reputation at stake to compete against the newer and younger chemically enhanced generation and still placed respectfully in the top three including accepting his pupil Arnold Schwarzenegger's ( almost twenty years his junior ) challenge to compete against him. Arnold won by a mere half a point. The rest, as they say, is history.\nReg was also incredibly strong and was known for using extremely heavy poundages which was and still is most unusual for a body builder. A mere few days after power lifter Doug Hepburn ( who outweighed Reg by 23KGS ) from Canada broke the world bench press record by doing 227.5 kg, Reg achieved the same feat.\nReg never saw colour or race as an issue. He always allowed people of colour to train at his gym and took the first black body builder from South Africa to compete in the Mr Universe long before apartheid was abolished. He judged people for their ability and for their character.\nHe started the gym industry in South Africa which today is a hugely popular and rapidly growing business. Reg introduced weight training to many top level and world class athletes including the likes of Gary Player, Bruce Fordyce and many others in South Africa long before weight training became popular and in fact was looked down upon and was thought to make one muscle bound and slow one down. Reg shared his wealth of knowledge freely, long before personal training was in vogue. Many doctors would send their patients and coaches their athletes to Reg for post injury rehabilitation.\nFrom my own personal experience I can tell you as a competitive swimmer, he was more influential than any coach I ever had. He put me on a strength training program when many of the coaches were negative about the benefits, monitored my nutrition and had the ability to motivate me before a race long before any one knew about sports psychology. He made me believe I was unbeatable which resulted in me smashing the South Africa records and swimming in the Olympics. Unfortunately when he wasn't present, which was not often, I did not perform as well, it was only a matter of time before the nay sayers (coaches) began to send their swimmers to Reg for strength programs.\nWhen Reg first started working out, he was looked upon with disdain and people thought he was weird. Now that we look back, he was a visionary and it is quite obvious that he was ahead of his time in many areas. Today gyms and working out are part of our culture and there is not a top class athlete anywhere in the world who does not incorporate strength training and sports psychology into their programs, if they don't they get left behind.\nUnfortunately bodybuilding was never regarded as a sport, but Reg trained as hard, if not harder than any athlete. He started training in his backyard in his home town Leeds where he would wear three sweat suits, three pairs of thick socks and military boots to keep him somewhat protected from the cold, rain and snow. He then graduated to a corrugated iron garage without electricity or mirrors, where the rain and snow would leak through the roof.\nReg loved South Africa He loved the people, the climate and the beauty he called it gods country. He embraced South Africa and South Africa embraced him.\nOn behalf of the Park family, we thank the South African Sports Hall of Fame.\nWe were privileged to have him as our mentor, husband, father and grandfather and you South Africa were privileged to have him as one of your sporting icons.\nJon Jon Park\nThe Legacy Gym",

        "raw_content": "misterbrownpants\nPosted: Wed Aug 15, 2007 5:15 pm Post subject: global tesol\nhi there just a quick question\nwhy is it that everyone says that global tesol is such a horrible program?\nwhat do they do/don't do? that needs to be done?\nDepends on where you want to go, but any certification that does not offer REAL teaching practice with feedback from actual teacher trainers on REAL students (not peer teachers) is considered substandard in many parts of the world.\nGLOBAL's in-class course component is primarily about 'how to find a job' not 'how to teach, and now, let's try it.'\nGlobal's not the only one... this is why totally on-line courses aren't accepted in many places, either. Teaching is a hands-on kind of profession and without actual experience doing it, you're just not ready, regardless of your knowledge of theory. An on-site training program gives you both the hands-on practice and the feedback you need to make sense of what you're doing. The feedback's very important - even experienced teachers can easily get so caught up in the moment-to-moment complexities of a classroom that they can't see the forest for the trees - hence in-service courses, peer teaching, and other tools used to evaluate even experienced teachers in the classroom\nI've got 10 years and an MA in the field, but I still need/want others to observe and give feedback on what I'm doing now and then. Newbies really need this, regardless of their backgrounds.\nAlso, note that nearly all regular classroom teachers do an in-service stint before they actually graduate with teaching degrees. The feedback is really just necessary.\nI'd be wary of them just because they're got so many schools going. Looks like they're in it for the money.\nI had an hour with the owner a few years back. You're right - though that doesn't necessarily meant that he doesn't feel the program's actually useful. THe paper part of the course (at that time - I don't know now) did a decent job of presenting a range of current approaches and methods.\nIt's just not financially feasible for GLOBAL to do the thing on-site and offer actual students. I think they also have usually just one 'trainer' who is employed on a commission basis - one woman I knew of who headed up one of their locations had just a basic cert + one year's experience in Japan herself. Absolutely not qualified to observe even newbies. Not to say that some good on-site courses don't sometimes hire people with similar quals, but those are NOT the trainers who are running the thing, they're assistants.\nFuzzX\nGT rules... take the inclass course. I've done both Global TESOL and CELTA... Tesol is 10 times the better program and prepares you for the practical side of ESL.",

My kids go there, my heart dropped when I found out my step son called my husband and said a kid standing 5 feet from him started shooting other kids! What a low life piece of shit you are! People I know, know this kids family this kid DOES EXIST! This shooting DID HAPPEN you aren't anything but an attention whore! Stay out of my towns business with your need for attention unless you have the facts and can speak the truth. Shove your numbers up your ass and go somewhere else with your BS\nxtina2229 March 1, 2016 at 11:04 AM\nYou are a special kind of stupid! Maybe, instead of adding up your bullshit numbers, you should look into your REAL facts a little bit more. My 13 year old niece was in the cafeteria less than 10 feet from the shooting. I've known Austin Hancock, the shooter, and his mother for years. Do you know how it feels to get a phone call from a child as they are running saying, \"there's a kid shooting!\" I highly doubt you've had to experience that! This is classless and just down right dirty. If you were trying to seek attention than that's for sure working but have fun trying to sleep at night knowing you are getting attention through media about an incident where children could have been murdered! Absolutely, disgusting you!\nlasertunes March 1, 2016 at 11:20 AM\nYou are an idiot I live in the Middletow Less than 5 miles from the school. my son attends the Middletown middle school. my son's has friends at Madison school. if you need to bring math into it this is my formula\nID + 10 + T =ID10T Idiot\nI hope your death is extremely slow and painful, you do not deserve to breath the same air as the rest of us.\nR u dumb? I dont know where u got ur numbers and info but ur wrong. If it was a drill like u say then why are the news stations showing the kid in court in cuffs.\nYour a fucking lier. My grandson goes to Madison in Middletown Ohio & that shooting was not a hoax! His cousin was sitting at the very table the 2 boys got shot at! What the fuck is wrong with you! This shooting WAS FOR REAL & you are a lying ass!\nJill Raschke March 1, 2016 at 2:12 PM\nYou're an idiot! You weren't there! Our children were....we will all have to live with this memory burned in our minds forever. You need to learn the facts before you publish a video such as this one proclaiming this incident as a hoax. Shame on you!\nConcerned parent,aunt and community member of Madison Local Schools, Middletown, Ohio, USA\nUr an idoit blablablabla\nLol fucking trolls\nKristine Martin March 2, 2016 at 7:20 AM\nWow open mouth insert foot.

        "raw_content": "Tohoku League Team Profile - Morioka Zebra\nSuccess may in the main have eluded Morioka Zebra, but in these days of cut-throat ambition and the increasing impact of money on the Japanese non-league game, the fact that the club celebrate their 50th anniversary in 2007 still as members of the Tohoku League Division 1 can be regarded as a small triumph for the spirit of amateur football in Japan.\nThe single most striking aspect of their lengthy history is probably the fact that Zebra have participated in every season since the league\u2019s inception in 1977. Indeed, for the first decade, Zebra were consistently one of the strongest teams on offer, almost on a par with tough corporate outfits Nippon Steel Kamaishi and TDK.\nTheir proudest moment came in 1980 - actually the sole occasion upon which the club have managed to take the league title. Finishing comfortably ahead of Nippon Steel and Matsushima Club, their triumph secured Zebra a place in the recently-established Regional League Championship Winners\u2019 Play-off tournament, but a 1-0 defeat from Saitama Teachers meant that they were eliminated at the First Round stage.\nBy the late 1980s, Morioka Zebra\u2019s days as a powerhouse of the game at Regional level were more or less over. For several seasons they survived on mere handfuls of points, lucky that whipping boys such as Ishinomaki City Hall were around \u2013 however briefly - to keep them off the very bottom of the table.\nA revival under coach Takashi Takahashi secured the club another brief period in the sun in the latter part of the 90s and in 1998, Zebra were just two points off what would have been a second Tohoku title victory. That same year, they also managed a rare All-Japan Shakaijin appearance and even squeezed their way into the Championship Winners\u2019 Play-off for a stab at a JFL spot, but Nippon Steel Oita did for them in the former and the Black-and-Whites were out of their depth in the latter against NTT Kyushu and Mazda SC.\nIn recent seasons, they have been reliant on Play-off victories and the like to maintain their presence in the region\u2019s top division, as at the end of 2005 when Zebra won 4-0 on aggregate against Tono Club from Iwate. Twelve months later, they were saved from having to participate in another Play-off only by the shock promotion to the JFL of TDK, who dished out an 8-1 hammering as the low point in a campaign that included only three wins.\n2007: Hard to see anything but another season of struggle ahead for Morioka Zebra. The matches against Furukawa Battery and Nippon Steel Kamaishi are likely to prove crucial to their chances of survival.",

Originally starting out his career at Carshall-Newtown Police, Morse transfers to the Oxford City Police in 1965 following a murder investigation during the pilot episode. While with the Oxford City Police, Morse is taken under the wing of veteran Detective Inspector Fred Thursday. Inspector Thursday names Morse his designated \"bag man\" and shows him the ropes as Morse begins to solve a string of complex murders, much to the envy and annoyance of some of his superiors, particularly Detective Sergeant Jakes and Chief Superintendent Bright.

        "title": "La Vida Alcala\u00edna: The San Jorge bull-runs - a personal view",
        "raw_content": "The San Jorge bull-runs - a personal view\nSearch for \"San Jorge Gazules 2012\" on YouTube and you will see a dozen videos of this year's sueltas de vaquillas (or bull-runs as we foreigners call them, though they are actually heifers), in honour of Alcal\u00e1's patron saint. Up until 1899 they did indeed use bulls, and they used to run all the way to the slaughterhouse in the Calle Salada where they were butchered and the meat shared amongst the population. But the bulls killed two people that year, and the bull-run was dropped until 1961. They used bullocks at first, then switched to the less dangerous heifers.\nTwice a day over the three days of the festival, at 1.00 and 2.30 pm, a canon is fired on the Plaza Alta and a young cow is released from a lorry onto the square. Eventually she will run down San Juan de Ribera, Ildefonso Romero and Calle Real to the Alameda, cheered on by thousands of people watching the spectacle from their rooftops and balconies, or squashed up against the heavy iron bars which block the side-streets.\nThe vaquillas are supplied by a local ganadero, or breeder. They are bred for their agility, bravery and ferocity, the daughters and potential mothers of the fighting bulls or toros bravos who grace the bullrings of Spain, though half their size. These sueltas are a chance to put them through their paces. If they put up a good fight on the streets, they are more likely (supposedly) to produce fiercer bulls.\nAt the point of release the young animal will already have been driven to a frenzy by the journey, with people banging on the sides of the lorry as she is driven through Alcal\u00e1's steep narrow streets to the Plaza Alta. Angry and confused by the sound of the cannon and the roaring crowds, and blinded by the sudden bright sunlight, she often slips on the sand and falls to her knees. She is constantly goaded by a group of young men, often referred to as mozos, fired up with drink and eager to show off their machismo. They wave their arms in front of her, yank her tail or smack her on the flank. They aren't supposed to use bullfighters' capes, but some do so anyway.\nOccasionally she will get her own back by delivering a corneado with her sharp horns, or trampling on one of the runners as they scurry to climb to safety on a nearby balcony or take refuge behind the metal bars. Sometimes the injuries are serious, and in places where full-grown bulls are used rather than vaquillas, there are occasional fatalities. Last week a 70-year-old man was killed by a bull in Jaen; his family insisted the fiesta should continue, as he wouldn't have wanted to spoil the fun. The media report such cases as if they were reporting traffic accidents, as if they were inevitable rather than avoidable.\nSometimes an animal will give up the fight and stand still, bewildered and terrified, or try to get away from her tormentors. Last year one of them sought refuge in the bar Los Manueles on the Alameda, which was captured by the local TV crew. But they are soon taunted by the mozos into responding once more. The people want their entertainment. They will discuss the merits of each beast in detail; the more she fights back, the more she is worth to the breeder.\nThere are signs of change though. The M\u00e1laga town of Alhaur\u00edn al Grande has suspended its sueltas after a cow was injured so badly by six men in 2010 that she had to be put down. The maltreatment was filmed by the Colectivo Andaluz Contra el Maltrato Animal y Medioambiental (CACMA) and the men were later charged by the Guardia Civil. You can watch the video here, if you have the stomach for it. But Alhaurin is on the Costa del Sol, and has large numbers of residents and visitors from Northern Europe. The removal of the bull-run from its festival is more likely to be down to economics than animal welfare.\nLike many foreigners living in Spain, I find the sueltas very hard to watch, even on film. I have never met an alcalaino who could see anything wrong with it. As far as they are concerned it is free entertainment for all social classes, and and integral part of their beloved fiesta. But the expats here tend to keep out of the way until later in the day when the heifers are on their way back to the farm.\nMore generally, I've observed that foreigners react in different ways. Some feel it is not their place to criticise or comment on local traditions and culture, even if they don't like it. Some join animal welfare groups campaigning against tauromaquia, lending their support to a growing number of young Spaniards concerned about such issues. A few of them throw themselves wholeheartedly into the festivities, possibly in the belief that it makes them appear more \"integrated\". Others, like me, just stay at home during the fiestas and write articles like this.\nAnyway, here's one of those videos, so you can judge for yourself.\nA cruel and unnecessary way to celebrate a culture and tradition\nThis business with Gibraltar\nFighting bulls at play",

        "raw_content": "If a child grows up never seeing animals in their natural habitats, he or she may never fully understand what could be lost in the climate-changed world of the future.\nToday, the average American child is by far an indoor creature, spending only four to seven minutes a day in unstructured play outdoors and more than seven hours a day in front of a screen. Those almost unbelievable statistics were reported in a recent article published by the Child Mind Institute, and they\u2019re a near reversal of where we humans started out.\nAt one time, we lived and learned mostly out in the fresh air. But once we migrated to predominantly indoor spaces, we lost something important: the opportunity for our children to turn over rocks to see what\u2019s underneath, smell flowers, touch dirt and wade in puddles. Learning became primarily theoretical; we use pictures and representations of the world instead of the world itself.\nRecently, however, some have begun to see the beauty and necessity of educating kids outside the traditional classroom. Others hesitate to offer lessons in nature for fear that children will act \u201cwild\u201d and be unable to concentrate afterward. But research shows that the opposite is true: students score significantly better in classroom engagement and focus after having lessons in nature than they do after classroom studies.\nIt\u2019s well documented that spending time outdoors is good for our physical and mental health. But it\u2019s also good for learning\u2014and in the world that our children will inherit, it\u2019s going to be more important than ever that we get them outside into nature to do it.\nEducation outdoors and outdoor education\nMultiple studies show that when children spend time outdoors, their learning improves.\nHere are just five benefits from learning in the outdoors:\n1. Better grades. In 1998, Dennis Eaton from the University of Toronto published a thesis, titled Cognitive and Affective Learning in Outdoor Education, which concluded that students\u2019 cognitive abilities are better developed outside the classroom than in. A 2015 academic paper, titled Empirical Evidence Supporting Benefits of Outdoor School and Experiential Learning Programs, pointed out that two studies in California that compared 12 pairs of schools\u2014which had been matched using demographic and socioeconomic criteria and information about their environmental programs\u2014found that students involved in environmental education programs and programs that use hands-on, outdoor learning outperformed students in traditional math programs.\nLearning outdoors has also been linked to a spark in creativity.\n2. Improved memory. One way to improve recall is to experience something new and unfamiliar, which releases dopamine into the hippocampus where memories are created. Indoor classrooms are typically the same every day, with the same layout, lighting, temperature and scenery. But moving classes outside opens up a world of fresh, sensory stimuli that have the power to secure in our brains whatever information is being learned at the time.\nThe real world that you can touch is often better for learning than pictures and representations of the world.\nIn a study published in 2013 in the Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning titled Learning Biology and Mathematics Outdoors: Effects and Attitudes in a Swedish High School Context, researchers conducted a seven-month investigation at an urban high school in Sweden involving 84 students. Compared to the students who received indoor classes, the students who received outdoor biology instruction exhibited increased levels of long-term knowledge retention and used higher frequencies of course content-related words to describe course activities and content vividly. In contrast, students who received indoor instruction provided relatively content-free, elusive and vague descriptions of the course content and activities when interviewed.\n3. Increased motivation. In a study published in Frontiers in Psychology in December 2017, educational psychologist Ulrich Dettweiler at the University of Stavanger in Norway and his research team found that students in the lower secondary levels who participated in an outdoor education program as part of their science curriculum reported significantly more intrinsic motivation to learn and felt more competent.\nMore recently, in the June-July 2018 issue of National Wildlife Magazine, it was noted that researchers at the University of Illinois discovered that third-graders at the Cold Spring Environmental Studies Magnet School in Indianapolis, Indiana, were found to be more attentive and engaged in their indoor studies following a 40-minute lesson conducted outdoors in a natural setting. This \u201cnature effect\u201d allowed the two educators who participated in the project to teach their 50 students uninterrupted for almost twice as long as would have been possible if the students never left the classroom.\nIn one study, children were more engaged in their indoor studies following a 40-minute lesson conducted outdoors in a natural setting.\n4. A gain in skills. Obviously, the most effective way to learn new, outdoor skills is by practicing them\u2014outdoors. Activities such as using a compass, identifying edible plants, building a fire or navigating by the sun are know-how that kids soak up in open-air classrooms.\n5. Environmental knowledge needed for living in the world of the future. Our children will live in a world far different from the one we grew up in. While we may have heard minor rumblings about acid rain, a hole in the ozone layer or disappearing rain forests in our childhoods, the threat of climate change has become fully realized in theirs. The need for citizens who are concerned about the well-being of our environment is greater than ever. Unfortunately, instead of fostering a connection between children and the outdoors, we\u2019ve divorced nature from childhood, putting conservation efforts in jeopardy.\nIf a child grows up never seeing animals in their natural habitats, digging in the soil, playing in a stream, walking in the woods or staring at the ocean\u2019s rhythmic waves, he or she may never really understand what there is to be lost. Children who have a high sense of connection to nature are more likely to engage in pro-environmental behavior, such as recycling and saving water.\nSchool-ground gardens and biology-class boulders\nIn American education today, the dominant trend is increased reliance on indoor, digital experiences. But nature-enhanced education represents a strong turnabout, one that does not reject technology but balances the virtual with the real.\nOutdoor lessons are a cost-effective way to improve our children\u2019s educations. Let\u2019s pledge to get them outside more.\nProgress is being made in that direction. For example, in Virginia, a garden that is a topographically correct, scale model of the state with indigenous plants is used by educators to teach fourth-grade history classes. Some school grounds around the country now have boulders to climb on, walking trails and vegetable gardens that help supply homeless shelters. English teachers may encourage students to write poetry under trees, and biology teachers are letting kids get their feet muddy in creeks at the end of schoolyards.\nOutdoor lessons are an inexpensive and convenient way to improve student engagement in learning and raise test scores. For far too long, we\u2019ve been nature-starving our kids, leaving them unprepared for the world they\u2019ll have to live in.\nNaturally, then, we should now want to give them the best chance at learning.\nTAGS \u00bb Candice Gaukel Andrews, Children and Nature, children's nature books, Climate Change, creativity, Education, Global Warming, Good Nature, learning, memory, motivation, Natural Habitat Adventures, Nature, outdoor health benefits, outdoor skills, outdoors, outside play, recent\nCharlotte Rose Mellis February 14, 2019 at 10:53 am - Reply\nThis must change, thanks for sharing Candice Gaukel Andrews!",

Maybe the most interesting exhibition was with Stephan Balkenhol at the Stephen Friedman Gallery. Very interesting work\u2026\nI have been back in the studio for a few days, continuing the work on my small paintings. This is the first one I have finished.\nPatriotic Smile, 24,2 x 24,2 cm, oil and varnish on plywood.\nI am finished with the thick piece\u2026\nIt is actually a pretty cool piece. I am rather pleased with it. It is all because of Bj\u00f6rn Jansson, who gave me this piece of plywood\u2026 I added a thin layer of burnt sienna, wiped most of it off the face and let it dry, and then added a layer of glossy varnish.\nI am also making some progress with the four small pieces.\nWhy is it so hard to paint and WHY do I do it?\nFirst question: what is it that makes painting so hard? I don\u2019t really know, but every time I start on something new, I have the same helpless feeling. Painting in oil also requires patience; at times you have to wait until the paint dries. Vaclav Havel said creating is having to wait. You cannot pull a sprouting seed from the ground \u2013 you will inevitably kill it. The waiting is often painful because you want to quickly pass from the crude beginning to a more refined level, but having to wait and helplessly watch the rough beginning easily harms your self confidence. And this is just the beginning of why it is so hard to paint\u2026\nAnd why do I do it? Is it to earn praise and admiration from my peers? Is it to sell paintings and make money? Is it to have fancy exhibitions in the nicest galleries or museums? Is it to be remebered after my death?\nI have asked myself this question countless times and I am not sure what the answer is, but lately some events have caused me to ask myself this question more earnestly, and I can honestly say that I paint because I love to do it, even if it is really hard and I repeatedly knock myself and doubt my ability and talent (if I have one?). When I look at works I have completed in the past, I am challenged by myself: I want to do it again, do it better. I can admire a single brushstroke, watch how the paint has done the job, be amazed at how I was able to catch the light or a detail, and wonder if I can ever do it again. When I want to paint it is sometimes very hard to get started, but then, when I am in the process, time just passes in a moment\u2026 I simply can\u2019t help but paint. I am very fortunate and thankful to have the freedom to do what I love.\nRight now I am working on four small paintings, each is 24 x 8 cm.\nThe result of two days of work, not much to brag about\u2026\nInput from a friend\nA few weeks ago we had some friends over for dinner and they brought a 30 mm thick piece of birch plywood, where the sides had been cut at an angle. Pretty interesting idea.\nThe entire piece is 45 x 33,3 cm. The painted area is 32,5 x 21 cm. The painted area is protruding, the sides tapering off to almost nothing, which makes it the opposite of a conventional frame. I am not done yet\u2026\nThe model almost done\nAfter a week of very concentrated work I am almost finished with the house model. Only some finetuning remains.\nBuilding a very small house\nThe model is almost ready. Very tricky, very time consuming.Pretty accurate\u2026\nArchitectural adventures\nI have taken a break from painting and I am working on a model of Villa Holsby. I am making a model of the entire lot and the house, in scale 1:50 and I am, of course, building it in plywood. Since I was a kid I have enjoyed making models, but this time I wonder if I have taken on a project that is too hard for me\u2026!?",

        "title": "Regressive Liberalism, Meet Your Twin, The Religious Reich",
        "raw_content": "This meme was shared by one of my Republican friends. Though I often criticize Republican ideology and I consider myself a liberal, I admit that this illustrates one of the issues with liberalism, especially the regressive left. They are quick to criticize discrimination and human right violations when the right is to blame, but turn the other way when this behavior is caused by religious beliefs. I feel that this is due to the fact that they are afraid of being called bigots or even racist for criticizing a religion. I think unfair treatment should be criticized no matter if the ideology behind it is political or religious.\nLet me be clear, Islam is a religion and not a race or ethnicity. It is not racist to be critical of Islam. Islam is a religion \u2013 just like Christianity \u2013 and as a system of beliefs it deserves to be critically analyzed: Especially when those who lead us politically ascribe to a religion and often use those values to create legislation.\nThis is one of the reasons why separation of church and state is essential in a secular society. One might genuinely agree with the above meme, but do you really want them deciding public policy based on those beliefs? If society is to work together harmoniously then beliefs must be your own, and left at the door, in order for society to make cohesive, constructive choices for everyone.\nThere is this idea that beliefs should be immune from criticism and that faith is a topic that is untouchable. This is an incredibly dangerous notion. Salman Rushdie famously said, \u201cThe moment you say that any idea system is sacred\u2026 the moment you declare a set of ideas to be immune from criticism, satire, derision, or contempt, freedom of thought becomes impossible.\u201d\nAll ideas, and especially the ideas that we glean our very value systems from, deserve careful consideration, exploration and critical analysis. If those values include the religiously protected \u201cright\u201d to persecute people who are different by encouraging and supporting racism, sexism, misogyny, bigotry and condoning violence against them, society has an obligation to condemn those beliefs.\nIf liberalism intends to maintain its philosophy of liberty, equality and protecting individual freedoms then they need to also recognize that those liberties end with the individual: One has the right be believe and practice whatever they choose, but those beliefs stop with them.\nThe Religious Reich and Public Policy\nWhat this country really needs is to become far more successful at keeping God out of politics \u2014 at the local, state and national levels.\nWe especially need politicians and their supporters to stop using a deity, the Bible and misguided religious fervor as crutches for blatant and even horrific discrimination against poor people, same-sex couples, women who seek abortions, the LGBT community, immigrants and other minority groups.\nIn the name of Christ (Mohammad, or Allah in Muslim countries), too many issues have been embraced in recent times. Among them:\nA bogus \u201creligious freedom\u201d bill in Missouri.\nThe bigoted bathroom law in effect in North Carolina and being sought in other states.\nPro-life efforts to defund Planned Parenthood in Missouri, Kansas and elsewhere.\nAnd the fake welfare reform laws that cut off meager funds that help feed poor men, women and children.\nGod gets sprinkled into many conversations that are prejudiced against others.\nDon Hinkle, director of public policy for the Missouri Baptist Convention, promoted the fortunately stalled Missouri measure that would allow people to discriminate against same-sex couples because of allegedly deeply held religious beliefs.\n\u201cWe are all equal under the law,\u201d Hinkle said. \u201cBut we will not yield our conscience to the government or any manmade group, because God is the only lord of our conscience.\u201d\nSorry, but Hinkle and the rest of us live in a world where \u2018man made\u2019 laws exist.\nYou want to express your religious \u201cconscience\u201d? Go to your church and do so. Plus, not every religious denomination holds the same views as the one Hinkle follows. Is God really picking sides between, say, the Baptists and Episcopalians who are far less judgmental on this issue? Last year, as Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon properly ordered state officials to comply with the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s decision to legalize same-sex marriages; Pastor LeRoy Glover of the Pentecostal Church of God in Christ stood up and told Nixon and gays in the audience:\n\u201cWe just can\u2019t do that. It\u2019s not that I hate you. I don\u2019t. But I do have to honor and obey my God.\u201d\nGood for you, pastor. Go to your church and condemn homosexuals all you want.\nBut in the real world, where manmade laws prevail, Nixon had the perfect response: \u201cThis is about making sure the people\u2019s rights are protected.\u201d At the same time in Kansas, the oh-so-faithful Gov. Sam Brownback was in full denial mode. He sought to protect state government workers who might claim their religious beliefs wouldn\u2019t let them do their taxpayer-funded jobs in allowing same-sex marriages to occur. Republican hopefuls Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal especially lashed themselves to Christ, God and religion in their presidential bids, all unsuccessful. (Thank you, God?) Cruz at one point defended Kentucky clerk Kim Davis after she had been jailed for her unlawful refusal to issue same-sex marriage licenses, saying:\n\u201cPraise God that Kim Davis is being released. It was an outrage that she was imprisoned for six days for living according to her Christian faith.\u201d\nNo, she was imprisoned because she failed to follow \u2018man made\u2019 law and do her job.\nIt\u2019s 2016, and more than ever we need a separation of church and state, and to honor the First Amendment prohibiting a law establishing a religion for this nation. That\u2019s true no matter what Franklin Graham and fervent Christian followers across the political landscape want. If your religion is the lens through which you see the world then at least realize that not everyone sees it as you do. We don\u2019t have to agree. We don\u2019t have to respect each other\u2019s beliefs. I don\u2019t have to embrace sexist, racist or misogynist views because my United States Senator does. He does however has a responsibility to uphold the constitution that holds all our views as protected. He has an obligation to ensure there is no racist, sexist or misogynist legislation. This is the standard I hold our public servants to.\nWe are all equal under the law. We are all protected under the constitution.\nTags: #Democrat, #GrafikCNetwork, #POTUS, #Republican, cultural appropriation, Current Events, educational, equality, facts, feature, Government, Humanity, knowledge, Political correctness killing free speech, politics, Regressive liberalism, The death of free speech and the rise of political correctness, understanding\nPrevious GOP in Chaos\nNext Sleep Tight",

        "raw_content": "Home\u00bbFord\u00bb2017 Ford GT Review\nFord will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of Ford GT40 winning the Le Mans in 1966 by releasing the 2017 Ford GT into the world. The new car is from the company\u2019s second generation series and is being promoted as having one of the best power-to-weight ratios of any production car. Let\u2019s go over the features of the 2017 Ford GT and see for ourselves what innovations it brings to the automotive market.\nJust one look at the design and it is clear that there\u2019s a lot of focus on aerodynamics. The 2017 Ford GT has a shark nose, a teardrop-shaped cockpit, radical body-side channels, and moveable rear wing which can adjust the pitch and height of the car. The wide front end harkens back to the Ford GT40, but the rest of the car is quite modern. The bridging of the roof to the fenders is aerodynamically formed, with a cross-section that is wing shaped. The buttress adds strength to the chassis and guides airflow over the car. The central tub and bodywork are carbon fiber. Aluminum makes up the front and rear substructures along with most of the suspension. The doors don\u2019t incorporate portions of the roof and hinge up and forward.\nOnce you get inside the speed demon the cabin becomes quite narrow. The seats are fixed directly to the tub of the car which means that the driver and passenger will have to sit quite closely beside each other. With the seats being fixed the pedals and the steering wheels are adjustable for the driver\u2019s comfort. A central color touch-screen display augments a digital gauge cluster.\nThe 2017 Ford GT features the next-generation EcoBoost twin-turbocharged, direct injected 3.5 liter V-6 engine which makes for 600 horsepower. The car also has carbon-ceramic brakes. The 20-inch wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup 2 tires. Additionally, the windshield is made of high quality hybrid gorilla glass, which is designed to be light, thin, and damage resistant. Furthermore, the flying buttress, through the unique design of the intake tubes, is a neat feature in the 2017 Ford GT. On each side of the car there is a hollow panel housing pipes. These pipes flow from an air-to-air intercooler ahead of each rear wheel. From beneath the Ford GT intake air is scooped up, compressed in each turbocharger, and before going down into the engine it shoots through the intercoolers. Wow!\nBASE PRICE $400,000 (est.)\nVEHICLE LAYOUT Rear-Wheel Drive\nENGINE 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6\nTRANSMISSION 7 speed Dual-Clutch Automatic\nON SALE IN U.S. Mid 2016 (est.)\nPictures gallery of 2017 Ford GT Review\n2017 Ford GT Review | Emmad Rasheed | 4.5\nPrevious post2017 Rolls Royce Dawn Next post2017 Maserati Alfieri",

If 600,000 acreas were scorched and the fuel load is 20 tons/acre and the energy release from wood is 4 kCal/gram (typical of carbohydrates) and the energy in a megaton is 1012 kCal, then the total energy release is 48 megatons so far.\nOn the other hand, by 911 standards the effects of this are lame. We can barely tell the difference between this and a typical California fire season.\nHow to Defeat the US\nAccording to The CounterRevolutionary:\nSo, when our enemies attack in Iraq, they do not do so in a vacuum. Their primary goals are not to destroy a police station or to assassinate a political figure or even to cause chaos. They have one goal - to break the will of the democracy. The attacks are meant as \"proof\" of failure to the American audience. If the enemy believed that we would be discouraged by an epidemic of capitalism in Baghdad, then that is what we would see.\nOf course, we'll be discouraged by an epidemic of capitalism. Our goal in this war is to show up the enemy as a bunch of raving maniacs. If they would not only have an epidemic of capitalism but would even show the calm confidence that comes from being so sure they will win eventually that they don't have to blow up anybody, we would have to admit defeat.\nThe preceding paragraph was a public-service announcement.\nThe Angry Left and the Angry Muslims\nAccording to Arnold Kling, there has been a marked upswing in intolerance on the left:\nI did not feel this sort of discomfort in 2000, which was the one other year when I attended Pop!tech. Back then, a conservative or libertarian attending the conference felt like a Jew among a group of tolerant Christians. This year, a conservative or libertarian felt like a Jew among a group of Christians whose main topic of conversation was the despicable nature of Jews.\nI think a better analogy would be that in 2000, the attitude was similar to the attitude of Muslims toward Jews before Zionism whereas this year the attitude is similar to the attitude of Muslims toward Jews today.\nYou can think of neo-conservatrism as analogous to Zionism:\nThe basis for Zionism is that the land at the southeast corner of the Mediterranean, which had been run by Muslims for centuries, should be taken over by an even older tradition that Muslims had previously treated in a semi-tolerantly patronizing manner. This caused the Muslims to become much less tolerant. They initially tried to deal with the problem by the traditional means of military action but have recently turned to foaming at the mouth.\nThe basis for neo-conservatism is that the land at the U.S. government, which had been run by liberals for decades, should be taken over by an even older tradition that liberals had previously treated in a semi-tolerantly patronizing manner. This caused the liberals to become much less tolerant. They initially tried to deal with the problem by the traditional means of electoral action but have recently turned to foaming at the mouth.\nIs Asymmetric Warfare the Wave of the Future?\nA few years ago, it looked like asymmetric warfare (aka terrorism) was an unstoppable tactic against industrial countries. Currently, we see several different dysfunctional regimes (North Korea, Iran, and Saudi Arabia) who are not using asymmetric warfare but are instead trying to resymmetrize war.\nWhen Leftists Look at Typical Conservatives\u2026\nThey almost always see people who are mindlessly following leaders\u2014who are presumably chosen for either their sterling characters or insitutional positions. That explains two common leftist tactics:\nExplaining Greg Easterbrook's Firing\nIt's quite simple. An antisemitic mole in Disney headquarters came up the idea in order to make Easterbrook look like the victim of a Jewish conspiracy. (Actually, he was the victim of the Secret Nihilist Conspiracy. You can read all about them in The Protocols of the Elders of Nothing.)\nExplaining Greg Easterbrook\nIt's quite simple. He was writing what should have been two essays. One of them would criticize Jewish movie producers on the grounds that Jewish history shows that we must never encourage leniency toward wanton violence. The other essay would criticize movie producers in general for greed. He made the mistake of combining the two.\nHow Libertarianism Can Go Wrong\nAny ideologue with even a shred of fairness must try coming up with ways his cherished opinions can go wrong. Here is an attempt to come up with ways libertarian rhetoric can backfire:\nExaggerate intellectual property rights. (We have a taste of that in Scientology.) Ideas can be patented forever. Words can have a copyright. Potentially embarrassing information counts as a trade secret. Most important of all, \u201clook and feel\u201d can be patented. Anyone who wants to complain can be arrested for the illegal use of other people's concepts. They can't even make up their own terminology since that would violate someone else's patent on the look and feel of liberty.\nExaggerate parental rights. (You can think of the Elian Gonzalez case as a possible beginning.) Parents can sell their children into slavery. Any offspring of the slaves are considered offspring of the owners and thus can also be enslaved.\nReal overpopulation\u2014not the thinly-scattered settlement we see in Manhattan. When the total biomass of the human race approaches the mass of the solar system, the owners of resources will be able to extract anything they want from the lower classes. Since the lower classes might object, it is necessary to have a secret police to prevent rebellions.\nApply property rights with enclosure acts to government. (I was inspired by a discussion on Samizdata.) If property rights ensure that property is taken care of better, then clearly the government will be more competent if it is owned outright by an Emperor. The Empire must be hereditary to ensure that the Emperor wants to preserve the value of his property over the long term. If we do not currently live in an Empire, we must turn the government over to an Emperor as soon as possible.\nBroccoli and Microwaves\nRecent research appears to show that cooking broccoli in water in a microwave oven can remove 97% of the flavonoids (which have some health benefits). There's a simple solution. Don't microwave broccoli in water; microwave it in tea..\nLogic and Harry Potter\nEveryone is afraid of Voldemort.\nVoldemort is only afraid of Dumbledore.\n\u2026 then Voldemort is Dumbledore!\nAfter all, Premise 1 implies Voldemort is afraid of Voldemort and Premise 2 implies anyone Voldemort is afraid of is Dumbledore.\nAccording to Islamofascists, Jews are Turks, Palestinians are Canaanites\u2026\n\u2026 and Saudis are Jews.\nWe Don't Have to Choose between Pro-Life and Pro-Choice\nWe can choose neither.\nPredictions on Anti-Smoking Laws\nI don't recall anybody predicting this.\nAnother prediction, on the other hand, turned out to be prophetic.\nNo Nepotism!\nI'm glad to see that the Homeland Security Department does not believe in nepotism, unlike the CIA.\nThe Best Part of Anti-Schwarzenegger Hysteria\nFor years, anti-semites have claimed that accusations of being a Nazi are impossible to deal with. The Schwarzenegger election is a clear disproof of that.\nOf course, it's still nearly impossible to deal with if it's true.\nMicrosoft and Mandatory Digital Rights Management\nSince the following comment has attracted favorable attention, I'll repeat it here.\nMandatory DRM is not to Microsoft's advantage. If there's a law mandating DRM, it will be based on a publicly-available standard that changes in government time. That means anybody will be able to write software dealing with it. If there is no mandatory DRM, but some media companies use the commonest proprietary standard, Microsoft stands to gain. It can change the standard every year or two as competitors start to accumulate.\nIn other words, we'll have to be allied with Satan.\nI Wrote the Following Long before the Plame\u2013Wilson Controversy\nFrom a usenet post (it's not something I made up yesterday to defend Dubya):\nI think it's an excellent idea for much of the American public to look for \"suspicious activity.\"\nCome to think of it, Joseph Wilson looks like the sort of infiltrator I warned against above.\nUpdate: I just read (via BrothersJudd) that my congressman Peter King has come out against the CIA.\nSchr\u00f6dinger's Cat Comes Closer?\nI'm dubious about whether the scientists trying to put a bacterium-sized object in two places at once can succeed. After all, an object that size might be locatable by its gravitational field.\nHarry Potter Misreadings\nAfter considering the Oxblog misreading of the Harry Potter series, I wondered about other possible misreadings. For example, in Harry Potter and the Goble of Fire, was the goblet single malt?\nWesley Clark's Excellent Adventure\nThe recent TCS article on De Rebus Bellicis is obvious evidence of time travel. We have a fourth-century treatise with ideas on weapons and tactics that seem like ordinary common sense today (e.g., paddle-wheel ships) but don't fit in late antiquity at all. We also have a professional military officer who gives advice to the world's only superpower and who's also interested in time travel. Coincidence?\nThe viral storm continues, albeit at a slower pace. I finally found that there's a way to deal with it. Now I have to start setting up a cron job.\nA Blogroll Retirement\nI just noticed that Deinonychus antirrhopus is now on the Instapundit blogroll.\nPoll Results in California Recall Race\nA recent poll of Arianna Huffington's brain cells indicated that 42% of them favor the recall, 28% oppose it, 17% don't know, and 13% were waiting for results from her crystal ball.",

        "raw_content": "Raise your hands to the sky and praise the dude with the beard (not Jeff Bridges), as this is a rapid-fire, end of the working week post. One cup of tea should get you through. I was contemplating something larger, but I\u2019m out of juice, so I thought I\u2019d just bring you up to date with what\u2019s been happening.\nSee the photo of \u2018Go Camping\u2019 magazine above? Yeah okay, don\u2019t adjust your eyeballs if it looks a bit blurry, as it is. Well, not out of focus, but there\u2019s a bit too much bokeh brutality going on. Anyway, I wrote an article for the magazine and somehow I\u2019ve barely mentioned it. As this blog is an extended spiel of pumping up my own tyres and generally informing you how magnificent I am, then neglecting the article is a bit of a slip-up.\nSo much has been going on lately, I simply forgot about it. Luckily, Derek, my \u2018forget skin out weight, try skin off\u2019 ultra-light, hiking housemate has been on the ball. Being about 10 kg in mass means you can get away with a bit of junk food, such as the potato cake he\u2019s munching on in the next image. Oh yeah, you can also smoke man-size cigarettes when you don\u2019t have any lungs to worry about.\nAnyway, the Go Camping magazine, Issue 88 article was about hiking food and I didn\u2019t realise how something so simple could have been so hard. Firstly, I managed to source an absolute shitload of food from different manufacturers. The logical theory would be to then eat them over a period of time and rate accordingly. Yes, that\u2019s the logical method, but I went for something a little different.\nI loaded up the car with a million packets of food and hit the stately premises of my occasional walking partner, the Smuffin, for a massive lightweight cook-off and tasting session. A select group of psychopaths joined me and somehow we churned through a ton of food and without doubt, down to every last living soul, we all felt like a tube had been put down our throats and cement poured in. For about a week, my guts felt like a pallet of bricks had been lodged in it. I kid you not, but even now I feel scarred by the experience. If you ever come across the Smuffin and mention it, you\u2019ll probably find him shaking, as he relives the horror.\nAnyway, photos were taken, food was rated and then I wrote the article.\nGo Camping magazine. Issue 88.\nIt seems to have been well-received and I guess getting two articles published for the year was a pretty good effort. I was contemplating doing another photo shoot in a similar vein to my Wild magazine article plug, but again, the mojo vaporized and it didn\u2019t happen. The best I can give you is a potato cake eating skeleton instead. Oh yeah, he\u2019s a bit of a bad arse. Knocking down beer and Red Bull at the same time, whilst reading is not for the faint hearted.\nThere you go. All in all, this post is a pretty piss poor overview, considering the article took a few months to put together! What else has been going on?\nMy neck saga is still ongoing, but plans have been made for a hike next month. It\u2019s a week long jaunt, which sounds a bit bizarre when I\u2019ve done exactly nothing this year, but there\u2019s a catch. It\u2019s a Smuffin expedition and it\u2019s going to be supported by the noble Lady Smuffin, who\u2019ll be providing food and foot massages at the end of every second day. No doubt Victoria in March will be warmish, so with bugger-all to carry, it\u2019ll practically be day packs all the time. Hopefully the neck won\u2019t complain too much. Week long hikes in remote Tasmania carrying a bison for food are not on the cards for a while, so this supported stroll next month will be it for now.\nOh yeah, speaking of the Smuffins, there\u2019s been a bit of an outcry, as I haven\u2019t included their jokes in any posts. Best I do it now, whilst I remember. How\u2019s this one from Lady Smuffin.\nQ: \u2018What do you call an astronauts package?\u2019\nA: \u2018Space junk.\u2019\nPretty good, huh? That\u2019s one and the other wasn\u2019t really a joke, but Smuffin came up with a comment regarding Torah Bright. \u201cDo you realise she\u2019s only two Tora\u2019s away from an attack on Pearl Harbour?\u201d I think it\u2019s pretty good, but you\u2019ve got to know your military history to get it.\nWhat else? I\u2019ve decided to branch out in the writing stakes this year. My babbling on the blog comes quite easily, but in order to keep motivated I\u2019ve thought about tackling a book. It\u2019s been on my mind for years and only now have I realised I should be pulling my finger out and getting it done. In order to get some motivation, I spent a day at the Gunna\u2019s Writing Masterclass, which is run by Catherine Deveny.\nI wasn\u2019t sure what to expect, but I must say I came out feeling some long sought after purpose with the writing. If you want to know a bit about the books theme (as if you have a choice, as I\u2019m going to tell you anyway), then here\u2019s a piece I wrote in the class on her webpage. I\u2019m not sure how, but I wrote this piece, \u2018The Sign Holds the Message\u2019 in 17 minutes. I must admit, my hand nearly fell off, as I rarely hand write these days. It did have advantages though, as I could pause to allow some blood to return to my mitt, which allowed me to think out the story a little better.\nUnheard of method. Writing by hand.\nEssentially, the book is going to be a rampaging, roller-coaster story of my childhood growing up in a house full of lunatics. Don\u2019t panic, as the \u2018observational disillusionment\u2019 style of these posts will be applied, which will hopefully guarantee some entertainment. The blog will also continue, but there might be the odd break during the year to tackle the book writing.\nAs I\u2019ve written in earlier posts, I feel it\u2019s important to record and detail the lives of people who are normally lost to history. Obviously my mother will be the main aspect. This is one of her diary entries,\n\u2018The Duke of Edinburgh \u2013 \u201cWe kept her in hypnosis til 1963 when she was expecting Greg. Then we put him in hypnosis until he was 3\u2026we got the power through Patrick McDowell because of the job we did on him in 1899\u2033. I was told to stay at home to keep the programme going for the Queen whereby she could get through to a variety of people, including a number of Heads of State and top politicians. The earthquake was merely a cover up for this, that\u2019s why they had to put the tremors under the ground and house to fool the world on this point.\u201d\nNow, you tell me why I shouldn\u2019t be writing about her life\u2026?\nIn finishing off, Ben and I have found some interesting areas for night time photography. A group of abandoned factories in the western suburbs near this road look perfect for a bit of urban decay imagery.\nThey\u2019ll be coming up soon. It\u2019s a busy schedule, so hopefully I\u2019m man enough to pull it off\u2026\nKirin J Callinan \u2013 St Jeromes Laneway Festival, Melbourne. February 2014\nTed Errey Nature Circuit, Brisbane Ranges National Park\nImportant question: Was the food good?\ndaynaa2000\t February 15, 2014 at 2:20 am\nA timely post Greg! We're currently planning what to take to Wilsons Prom over two nights. I was going to make something up, but if you've found a winner, maybe I won't have to\u2026?!\nHmm\u2026I have the opposite problem to you. I love to handwrite my work and am a very slow typist. From reading your piece I think using a pen didn't cramp the finished product\u2026just your hand muscles! Lately I've had to type as arthritis is causing me some wrist grief and gripping a pen is not an option. I find the way my thoughts flow differs between the two modes. I'm sure there must be research papers floating around about it.\nCommunicating to others about severe mental illness in the family can be tricky. My mother's untreated schizophrenia was something my family kept secret from the world for many reasons, partly because we didn't think people would believe our stories, partly because we were afraid that siblings would be separated from each other by family services, partly through fear of being ridiculed or labelled ourselves. I remember as a young adult trying to seek support for myself and finding a complete dearth of resources for the children of parents who have a mental illness. When I spoke to organisations such as SANE, the support was directed towards the parents of children who were mentally ill. Fortunately now there is much more information for the children of parents with schizophrenia. I think a book about your experiences will give great insight to others who have no experience and understanding of the area, as well as giving comfort to those who have been through it. I hope it will be therapeutic to you also. Your humorous style will help to keep it entertaining. My siblings and I used to joke about our crazy life because if you didn't laugh, you'd cry or lose your mind yourself! You certainly develop some interesting coping strategies at times\u2026 \ud83d\ude42\nLooking forward to reading about further hiking fiascoes, checking out more father and son photography and reading that book one day! Hurry up. \ud83d\ude42\nwazza\t February 15, 2014 at 8:57 am\nGood luck with the book. I will be able to tell my Grandchildren \u201cthat Greg Bloke I read him before he was famous\u201d\nWhoooo Hooooo! Published! Again! Thataboy.\nMm\u2026 After a day of walking, the packet food is okay. If sitting at home and attempting to taste about 20 different types, then it gets a bit brutal!\nIf I can say anything about every one of the foods we tried, it was they all seemed to be mega-salty. Again, I've noticed that on hikes, but bloody hell, I noticed it when taste testing!\nFood tasting is so subjective, but the most I've tried and gone back to is Back Country Cuisine. Not too bad. Strive Foods are okay also if you want a lot of food! Chefsway is quite common and I've used them before, but they were a pain to test, as their supplier treated me like a chump, so I've made a note never to purchase any of their stuff again! I'll get my revenge via my wallet \ud83d\ude42\nI think your safest bet is Back Country Cuisine! Mind you, don't come looking for me if you try them and hate it \ud83d\ude42\nIf hiking I guess your choices at Chefsway, Strive Foods, BCC, Outdoor Gourmet Company (made by BCC). There are others, but those are the main ones which are 'all in one'. Just remember to fill up with extra water, as you'll notice the salt intake \ud83d\ude42\nIf you're really desperate for the article, I've got it in pdf format, so I can email it to you. I'll leave it up to you!\nI used to be a fearsome hand writer, but the computer has stopped that a bit! I've been able to touch type since school, so I can power through stuff on a keyboard. If ever I want the stream of consciousness style in writing, then keyboard is the go, as I can rattle on with getting a cramp in the hand!\nNo, the only mental health resource I know of back in the 1970s was putting people in institutions. There's one main thing I remember about growing up with lunatics and that's loneliness. Few friends, not going out much etc.\nI'd do way more on this blog, take photos and other writing if I didn't have to work Monday to Friday. I might have my mojo on during the day, but that's not much help when I get home and am knackered at night \ud83d\ude42\nHang on Wazza, don't get too far ahead! I've got to write the sucker first! Only now have I an outline of what to do, so all I need is the time to write it. It'll probably take a year, but at least I'll get it done! Then publishing etc etc\u2026\nThanks! I only know of a handful of outdoor magazines here. I've done two, but there is one more I've got my eyes on. I guess I've got to try and fit that in somewhere as well!\nI was actually more interested in that of the masterclass. I've found that the freeze-dried are getting less interesting as I get older.\nIf I write a post about hiking food and you ask me if the food was good, then I think it's logical for me to think you're talking about the freeze dried crap \ud83d\ude42\nLoved the class. A lot of like minded people trying to open up to new ideas. Everyone knows writing can be a pain, so it's nice to hear of others in the same boat!\nThe food at La Luna was good. I wouldn't mind going back and having a look in a less pressured time. During the class, my mind was going a million miles an hour, so I found I wasn't feeling very hungry.\nGoat\t February 20, 2014 at 4:23 pm\nCongrats on the magazine article and on surviving all that \"food\"! And best of luck with the writing endeavours. I could never write anything longer than a grocery list by hand as I'd never be able to read my handwriting afterwards. As for the hiking food, I'd guess that 90% of thru-hikers over here (myself included) would rely at least partially on these very cheap and filling (esp if you eat two!) \"meals\" on the trail: http://www.knorr.com/product/category/245726/sides. They used to be Lipton's Sides but I guess they were bought out. Actually I just thought of a perfect slogan for this product: \"From the trailer park to the trail!\"\nThanks mate. Yeah, I can warn any prospective food testers to spread the tasting over a few weeks, as doing it on one day is almost lethal. I'm not sure I've ever ingested so much salt in such a short time!\nI used to be the king of handwriting, but I think those days are gone. I was always praised for insanely neat writing as well, but looking at the photo, I think those days are gone as well!\nI checked out your food link. It made me wonder, as there's similar stuff in the supermarkets here, but I've never thought of using outdoors. Might have to contemplate a little more!\nHang on, you've got some marketing skills as well. Not a bad slogan!",

        "raw_content": "Tampa Bay Lightning Looking to Strike Gold Again in Quebec\nAfter drafting QMJHLer Nikita Kucherov in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, Tampa has returned to Quebec, this time to pick up Blainville-Boisbriand standout Alex Barr\u00e9-Boulet. (Antoine Meunier)\nIt\u2019s a long way from Blainville, Quebec to Tampa Bay, Florida.\nGoogle Maps lists the trip as over 2,300 kilometres long.\nIt\u2019s even more challenging if you are trying to make that trek as a QMJHL player to a spot with one of the elite teams in the NHL.\nBut that\u2019s the journey Blainville-Boisbriand Armada F Alex Barr\u00e9-Boulet is welcoming after the Tampa Bay Lightning signed the 20-year-old forward to an entry level contract in early March.\n\u201cI was very happy when Tampa Bay offered me a contract with their organization,\u201d the 20-year-old said before a recent road game in Gatineau.\n\u201cIt\u2019s an honour to be recognized by such a great team that has so many fantastic players. I am very excited to be given the opportunity to earn a spot and play for the Lightning one day.\u201d\nThe Lightning is known for their offence and exciting goal scoring ability with the likes of Nikita Kucherov, Steven Stamkos, Brayden Point, Yanni Gourde and Tyler Johnson to name a few of their skilled point producers.\nExcept for Stamkos, who stands 6\u20191\u201d tall and weighs 194 pounds, not one of the other aforementioned players is over six feet.\nThose measurements are similar to Barr\u00e9-Boulet who is listed at 5\u201910\u201d, 165.\nTampa Bay found lightning in a bottle once before when they selected a smallish, Kucherov while playing in the KHL and a season in the QMJHL with the Quebec Remparts and Rouyn-Noranda Huskies.\nThe new NHL is all about foot speed, mobility and quickness, which defines Alex\u2019s modus operandi.\nSince his minor hockey days, Alex has possessed the speed to wheel around the rink and put up serious numbers on the score-sheet.\nIn his last season of Midget AAA with the Quebec City-based Levis Commandeurs, he finished with 40 points and 21 goals in 32 games.\nThe Drummondville Voltigeurs liked what they saw and selected him in the 6th round (102nd overall) in the 2013 QMJHL Draft.\nBarr\u00e9-Boulet paid immediate dividends for Drummondville in his rookie campaign with 23 goals and 51 points.\nIn his second year, he cracked the Top 10 in league scoring during the regular season, with 89 points.\nMidway through 2016-17, the Armada acquired the diminutive speedster to help the team in its run to the President\u2019s Cup final.\nThe move was a success as Barr\u00e9-Boulet finished the year with 81 points and picked up another 31 in the playoffs.\nHe finished one point behind Saint John F Mathieu Joseph in the postseason as the Sea Dogs swept the Armada in the championship final.\nJoseph just happens to be the property of the Tampa Bay Lightning pick as well.\nNow in his overage year, Barr\u00e9-Boulet picked up the league scoring title with 53-63-116 points and is one of the leaders with the Armada who, like Tampa Bay are known for their high-powered offence.\nBlainville-Boisbriand is back in the hunt for this season\u2019s President\u2019s Cup with Joel Bouchard at the helm of the Armada ship.\nHe identified Barr\u00e9-Boulet\u2019s skills and did not hesitate in making a deal to bring him to the Armada through last season.\n\u201cAlex has been a force for us on the ice with his play and leadership since trading for him at last year\u2019s trade deadline,\u201d said Bouchard.\n\u201cHe\u2019s a large part of our success this season along with several other players who form the core of our team. We\u2019re very happy that he signed with Tampa Bay it\u2019s a great opportunity for him, down the road to give pro hockey a shot. I think he has a fair chance to achieve that.\u201d\nTampa Bay is a great destination for any hockey player with its sunny climate and the team\u2019s penchant for playing the game at pace and catering to world class skills.\nBarr\u00e9-Boulet has already experienced playing hockey in sun belts. The first time was in 2016 as an invite to the Los Angeles Kings camp, the second came this past fall when the Vegas Golden Knights reached out.\n\u201cI\u2019ve never been to Tampa Bay but I\u2019m excited to attend their development camp,\u201d said Alex.\n\u201cI learned so much when I went down to L.A. and Vegas. Now it\u2019s up to me to work hard over the summer to become stronger, faster and adjust to playing against bigger and stronger players. It\u2019s never been easy as a small player but I have the determination and character to get to the next level.\u201d\nTampa Bay is counting on that and optimistic they found another player that will continue in their tradition of speed and skill.",

Floyd Road, Richardson, TX 75083-0688, USA c School of Business and Management, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Clearwater Bay, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China\nAbstract We study the impact of activity-based costing (ABC) on adoption of world-class manufacturing (WCM) practices and plant performance. In contrast to earlier research that estimates the direct impact of ABC on plant performance, we develop an alternative research model to study the role of world-class manufacturing practices as a mediator of the impact of ABC. Analysis of data from a large cross-sectional sample of US manufacturing plants indicates that ABC has no signi\ufb01cant direct impact on plant performance, as measured by improvements in unit manufacturing costs, cycle time, and product quality. We \ufb01nd, however, that WCM practices completely mediate the positive impact of ABC on plant performance, and thus advanced manufacturing capabilities represent a critical missing link in understanding the overall impact of ABC. Our results provide a di\ufb00erent conceptual lens to evaluate the relationship between ABC adoption and plant performance, and suggest that ABC adoption by itself does not improve plant performance. \u00d3 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

Proponents of ABC argue that it provides accurate cost data needed to make appropriate strategic decisions in terms of product mix, sourcing, pricing, process improvement, and evaluation of business process performance (Cooper & Kaplan, 1992; Swenson, 1995). These claims may have led many \ufb01rms to adopt ABC systems. A survey of the 1000 largest \ufb01rms in the United Kingdom showed that 19.5% of these companies have adopted ABC (Innes & Mitchell, 1995). Another survey released by the Cost Management\n0361-3682/$ - see front matter \u00d3 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. doi:10.1016/j.aos.2006.12.001\nR.D. Banker et al. / Accounting, Organizations and Society 33 (2008) 1\u201319\nGroup (1998) of the Institute of Management Accountants indicated that 39% of organizations have approved ABC adoption.1 Assessing the impact of ABC on manufacturing plant performance is recognized as an important research question. Prior research has typically focused on the direct impact of ABC while ignoring its indirect impact in supporting other organizational capabilities. While past studies have reported moderate levels of bene\ufb01ts from ABC adoption (Foster & Swenson, 1997; Ittner & Larcker, 2001), few have extended this work to evaluate the linkages between \u2018\u2018beliefs\u2019\u2019 that represent successful outcomes and the operational measures of plant performance. Furthermore, the de\ufb01nition of ABC success has often been vaguely de\ufb01ned in terms of subjective beliefs regarding \u2018\u2018\ufb01nancial bene\ufb01t\u2019\u2019, \u2018\u2018satisfaction with ABC\u2019\u2019, or \u2018\u2018use of ABC system for decision making\u2019\u2019. In light of these methodological de\ufb01ciencies, we argue that a more rigorous approach is needed to measure the impact of ABC. It is also important to focus on process-level performance measures, instead of \ufb01rm-level \ufb01nancial metrics, since the potential impact of ABC implementation may be...\nReferences: Anderson, S.

Correlation and Regression Analysis: SPSS Obtain from my SPSS Data Page the following files: KJ.sav, Poffhoff.sav, and Corr_Regr.savBivariate Analysis: Attitudes About Animals Predicted from Misanthropy One day as I sat in the living room, watching the news on TV, there was a story about some demonstration by animal rights activists. I found myself agreeing with them to a greater extent than I normally do. While pondering why I found their position more appealing than usual that evening, I noted that I was also in a rather misanthropic mood that day. That suggested to me that there might be an association between misanthropy and support for animal rights. When evaluating the ethical status of an action that does some harm to a nonhuman animal, I generally do a cost/benefit analysis, weighing the benefit to humankind against the cost of harm done to the nonhuman. When doing such an analysis, if one does not think much of humankind (is misanthropic), e is unlikely to be able to justify harming nonhumans. To the extent that one does not like humans, one will not be likely to think that benefits to humans can justify doing harm to nonhumans. I decided to investigate the relationship between misanthropy and support of animal rights. Mike Poteat and I developed an animal rights questionnaire, and I developed a few questions designed to measure misanthropy.

Broken nutmeats of the eastern black walnut from the tree Juglans nigra are also commercially available in small quantities, as are foods prepared with butternut nutmeats from Juglans cinerea. Walnut seeds are a high density source of nutrients, particularly proteins and essential fatty acids. Walnuts, like other tree nuts, must be processed and stored properly. Poor storage makes walnuts susceptible to insect and fungal mold infestations; the latter produces aflatoxin\u2014a potent carcinogen. A mold infested walnut seed batch should not be screened and then consumed; the entire batch should be discarded.[1] Walnut seed shell inside its green husk Walnuts are rounded, single-seeded stone fruits of the walnut tree. The walnut fruit is enclosed in a green, leathery, fleshy husk. This husk is inedible. After harvest, the removal of the husk reveals the wrinkly walnut shell, which is in two halves. This shell is hard and encloses the kernel, which is also made up of two halves separated by a partition. The seed kernels \u2014 commonly available as shelled walnuts \u2014 are enclosed in a brown seed coat which contains antioxidants.

        "raw_content": "Read: Euphemia Eleanor Baker\nAlso Published: Australian Dictionary of Biography, 1940-1980\nEffie Baker typified the Australian female who sacrificed the path of marriage and family to pursue her love of art and life. She was born 25 March 1880 in Goldsborough near Ballarat, to parents whose immigrant British families had been drawn by the excitement and promise of prospecting on the Victorian gold-fields. Her grandfather, Henry Evans Baker, who had left his native Kent for North America as a young man and met and married a Scottish girl, Euphemia McLeash, in New York, captained a sea-collier into Melbourne in 1852 and had been unable to muster a crew with which to depart. Sensing adventure, Baker sold his boat and joined the rush. Euphemia Mcleash's brother William subsequently joined Baker, and with partners Robert Dodd and Samual Crozier the four discovered the Bealiba Reef, also known as the Queen's Birthday Reef, and registered their claim on the last day of 1863.\nEffie's maternal forbears were also British. Her mother's father, James Cully Smith, arrived in Australia aged eighteen, and married Eliza Ball in Adelaide in 1845. Having for a time worked a bullock team in South Australia James brought his family to Goldsborough, where the Ball's daughter Margaret married John Baker, son of Henry and Euphemia, in December 1879.\nEffie, the first of their eleven children, was born the following year. As the family expanded she was sent to live with her grandparents in Ballarat. It was here during the formative years 1886-1890 that grandfather Baker imparted to Effie a life-long fascination with scientific instruments, an aptitude for creativity, and a sense of inquiry. She attended Mount Pleasant State School, Grenville College, Ballarat East Art School, Carew-Smyth's Art School, and finally Beulie College. After receiving a thorough grounding in colour and composition, Effie became increasingly interested in the new science of photography. With a quarter-plate camera given to her by an aunt, she took photos while on holidays in Perth in 1898 and around the Ballarat district in 1899, which she developed, printed, and presented in photo albums as gifts to her parents.\nIn 1900 Effie moved to Black Rock in Melbourne, to live with Henry Baker's sister Euphemia, a school headmistress, and one of the first women to obtain entrance to the civil service university course in Victoria. Undoubtedly, aunt \"Feem\"s independence and success in her career left a lasting impression on Effie. In 1914 Melbourne printers T.H. Hunter published a booklet of seven of her photographs as Wild Flowers of Australia which proved immediately successful and went into second (1917), third (1921), and fourth (1922) printings. The booklet, among the first of its kind in Australia, was bound with green ribbon, and the mounted photographic plates (5&3/4 inches x 4 inches) were interleaved with tissue paper. A Melbourne newspaper said the colours were \"faithfully reproduced with exquisite softness through the medium of hand-coloured photographs\" and recommended the booklet as an ideal Christmas gift. In addition to this colour photography, Effie sold intricately worked wooden \"Australian toys\", made doll's houses for charities, and depicted Australian wild-flowers in water-colours. While living at Beaumaris in 1922 Effie and her good friend Ruby Beaver began attending meetings of a \"New Civilisation Centre\" based on New Thought, a philosophical and mental therapeutics movement that had evolved in North America that was being promoted in Australia by a Californian medical doctor, Dr Julia Seton Seers. Although inspired by Christianity, New Thought was a philosophic rather than a religious movement, the appeal of which lay in its emphasis on the power of constructive thinking, on the imminence of a \"new age\", and in its free discussion of religious ideas. Effie and Ruby first heard of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith at Dr Seer's Centre, and Effie was the second in Australia, after Sydney optometrist Ostwald Whitaker, to become a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed.\nBoth had met Hyde and Clara Dunn, an English-Irish couple who had become Bah\u00e1'\u00eds in California and had arrived in Australia in 1920 to promote their religion, which had its origins in Nineteenth Century Persia. Effie found Hyde's address to the Melbourne New Thought Centre captivating. He spoke of the need at this time for world unity based on racial equality and inter-religious understanding, and for individuals to investigate religious truth for themselves rather than be led by tradition; and referred to such fundamental teachings of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, founder of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed religion, as the equality of the sexes, and the essential complementarity of the great religions. Effie was convinced by the \"humble sincerity and faith\" with which Hyde spoke, and her acceptance of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith rapidly changed the direction of her life's work.\nIn 1923 she travelled with the Dunns to Tasmania and to Western Australia, and in 1924 visited New Zealand with internationally renowned Bah\u00e1'\u00ed teacher and Esperantist Martha Root. Effie learnt while in Auckland that four New Zealand Bah\u00e1'\u00eds were making a pilgrimage to the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed holy shrines in Haifa, Palestine, and accepted their invitation to join them. She was suffering lead poisoning as a result of many years of wetting her paint-brush with her tongue rather than in water, and this proposed three-month journey was an opportunity to take a curative sea-voyage, as she had been advised. The pilgrims departed Adelaide in January 1925 and it was eleven years before Effie returned.\nWhen she re-visited Haifa, following pilgrimage and then several weeks holiday in England, Effie accepted the invitation of Shoghi Effendi, Guardian of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith, to remain there to act as hostess of a newly completed pilgrim hostel for Western Bah\u00e1'\u00eds. She had made firm friends with the women in Shoghi Effendi's family and had no major commitments waiting in Australia, and residence in Haifa brought the opportunity for practical service to her Faith (for she did not regard herself as a public speaker like Hyde Dunn, or Martha Root), as well as the opportunity to meet fascinating people from the East and the West.\nWithin a short period Shoghi Effendi came to appreciate Effie's talents as photographer and model-maker. Her good fortune was to commence residing in Haifa when he was preparing the first Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Yearbook, a publication chronicling Bah\u00e1'\u00ed activities world-wide which continues to the present time as the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed World. Early volumes include numerous of her photographs of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed monument gardens on Mt. Carmel, widely regarded as the most beautiful in all Israel. Also, Effie made models of landscapes to assist Shoghi Effendi in his planning of new sections of the gardens.\nHer hardest assignment came late in 1930, when Shoghi Effendi was urgently seeking a photographic record of numerous locations associated with the origins of the Bab\u00ed and Bah\u00e1'\u00ed religions. Haste was required to photograph many towns and buildings which were being razed in the Persian government's rapid modernisation program. Furthermore, Shoghi Effendi was nearing completion of his translation of Nabil's Narrative, an epic account of the religions' origins, and required the photos to accompany the first edition.\nAt a time when European women could find little protection in the region, Effie travelled by train and car through Iraq to Persia, where living conditions swung from the brief luxury of Tehran Hotels to bitterly cold night-riding on heavily laden mules across steep and stony terrain. A three month commission extended to eight as she moved between locations, keeping well hidden her No1 A Kodak, and her half plate clamp camera with triple extension, and often herself completely covered in a black \"cuddor\".\nThe complete lack of photographic supplies in the country, and her need to check her work before leaving each location, tested Effie's photographic abilities to the full. In the absence of dark-room or running water, she developed film at night, ensuring that she had at least one good print from the snaps of various apertures taken at each site before moving on. She returned to Haifa with above one thousand good prints, some 400 of which have been published.\nEffie returned to Goldsborough in February 1936, where she remained until moving to Sydney in 1963. She constantly shared with friends prints of her photos and art-works, although she shied from publicity and from any celebration of her unique life experience and achievements. In the remaining years of her life she enjoyed the love of the growing Australian Bah\u00e1'\u00ed community, and especially of children who received from her undeserved gifts and tales of adventure. She died in January 1968, her photographic accomplishments little-known beyond her circle of acquaintances. In 1981-82 her work was included in a national exhibition, Australian Women Photographers 1890-1950, and it has since begun to attract wider attention.\nAnnear, Judy, & Merryn Gates, Australian Woman Photographers 1890-1950, George Paton Gallery, Melbourne University Union, 1981.\nHassall, Graham, \"Effie Baker: A Remarkable Woman\", Herald of the South 7, April 1986.",

        "raw_content": "Fiction, Fact & Fancy concerning the Buccaneers & Marooners of the Spanish Main: From the writing & Pictures of Howard Pyle:\nCompiled by Merle Johnson\nFOREWORD BY MERLE JOHNSON\nI. BUCCANEERS AND MAROONERS OF THE SPANISH MAIN II. THE GHOST OF CAPTAIN BRAND III. WITH THE BUCCANEERS IV. TOM CHIST AND THE TREASURE BOX V. JACK BALLISTER'S FORTUNES VI. BLUESKIN THE PIRATE VII. CAPTAIN SCARFIELD\nPIRATES, Buccaneers, Marooners, those cruel but picturesque sea wolves who once infested the Spanish Main, all live in present-day conceptions in great degree as drawn by the pen and pencil of Howard Pyle.\nPyle, artist-author, living in the latter half of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth, had the fine faculty of transposing himself into any chosen period of history and making its people flesh and blood again\u2014not just historical puppets. His characters were sketched with both words and picture; with both words and picture he ranks as a master, with a rich personality which makes his work individual and attractive in either medium.\nHe was one of the founders of present-day American illustration, and his pupils and grand-pupils pervade that field to-day. While he bore no such important part in the world of letters, his stories are modern in treatment, and yet widely read. His range included historical treatises concerning his favorite Pirates (Quaker though he was); fiction, with the same Pirates as principals; Americanized version of Old World fairy tales; boy stories of the Middle Ages, still best sellers to growing lads; stories of the occult, such as In Tenebras and To the Soil of the Earth, which, if newly published, would be hailed as contributions to our latest cult.\nIn all these fields Pyle's work may be equaled, surpassed, save in one. It is improbable that anyone else will ever bring his combination of interest and talent to the depiction of these old-time Pirates, any more than there could be a second Remington to paint the now extinct Indians and gun-fighters of the Great West.\nImportant and interesting to the student of history, the adventure-lover, and the artist, as they are, these Pirate stories and pictures have been scattered through many magazines and books. Here, in this volume, they are gathered together for the first time, perhaps not just as Mr. Pyle would have done, but with a completeness and appreciation of the real value of the material which the author's modesty might not have permitted. MERLE JOHNSON.\nWHY is it that a little spice of deviltry lends not an unpleasantly titillating twang to the great mass of respectable flour that goes to make up the pudding of our modern civilization? And pertinent to this question another\u2014Why is it that the pirate has, and always has had, a certain lurid glamour of the heroical enveloping him round about? Is there, deep under the accumulated debris of culture, a hidden groundwork of the old-time savage? Is there even in these well-regulated times an unsubdued nature in the respectable mental household of every one of us that still kicks against the pricks of law and order? To make my meaning more clear, would not every boy, for instance\u2014that is, every boy of any account\u2014rather be a pirate captain than a Member of Parliament? And we ourselves\u2014would we not rather read such a story as that of Captain Avery's capture of the East Indian treasure ship, with its beautiful princess and load of jewels (which gems he sold by the handful, history sayeth, to a Bristol merchant), than, say, one of Bishop Atterbury's sermons, or the goodly Master Robert Boyle's religious romance of \"Theodora and Didymus\"? It is to be apprehended that to the unregenerate nature of most of us there can be but one answer to such a query.\nIn the pleasurable warmth the heart feels in answer to tales of derring-do Nelson's battles are all mightily interesting, but, even in spite of their romance of splendid courage, I fancy that the majority of us would rather turn back over the leaves of history to read how Drake captured the Spanish treasure ship in the South Sea, and of how he divided such a quantity of booty in the Island of Plate (so named because of the tremendous dividend there declared) that it had to be measured in quart bowls, being too considerable to be counted.\nCourage and daring, no matter how mad and ungodly, have always a redundancy of vim and life to recommend them to the nether man that lies within us, and no doubt his desperate courage, his battle against the tremendous odds of all the civilized world of law and order, have had much to do in making a popular hero of our friend of the black flag. But it is not altogether courage and daring that endear him to our hearts. There is another and perhaps a greater kinship in that lust for wealth that makes one's fancy revel more pleasantly in the story of the division of treasure in the pirate's island retreat, the hiding of his godless gains somewhere in the sandy stretch of tropic beach, there to remain hidden until the time should come to rake the doubloons up again and to spend them like a lord in polite society, than in the most thrilling tales of his wonderful escapes from commissioned cruisers through tortuous channels between the coral reefs.\nAnd what a life of adventure is his, to be sure! A life of constant alertness, constant danger, constant escape! An ocean Ishmaelite, he wanders forever aimlessly, homelessly; now unheard of for months, now careening his boat on some lonely uninhabited shore, now appearing suddenly to swoop down on some merchant vessel with rattle of musketry, shouting, yells, and a hell of unbridled passions let loose to rend and tear. What a Carlislean hero! What a setting of blood and lust and flame and rapine for such a hero!\nPiracy, such as was practiced in the flower of its days\u2014that is, during the early eighteenth century\u2014was no sudden growth. It was an evolution, from the semi-lawful buccaneering of the sixteenth century, just as buccaneering was upon its part, in a certain sense, an evolution from the unorganized, unauthorized warfare of the Tudor period.\nFor there was a deal of piratical smack in the anti-Spanish ventures of Elizabethan days. Many of the adventurers\u2014of the Sir Francis Drake school, for instance\u2014actually overstepped again and again the bounds of international law, entering into the realms of de facto piracy. Nevertheless, while their doings were not recognized officially by the government, the perpetrators were neither punished nor reprimanded for their excursions against Spanish commerce at home or in the West Indies; rather were they commended, and it was considered not altogether a discreditable thing for men to get rich upon the spoils taken from Spanish galleons in times of nominal peace. Many of the most reputable citizens and merchants of London, when they felt that the queen failed in her duty of pushing the fight against the great Catholic Power, fitted out fleets upon their own account and sent them to levy good Protestant war of a private nature upon the Pope's anointed.\nSome of the treasures captured in such ventures were immense, stupendous, unbelievable. For an example, one can hardly credit the truth of the \"purchase\" gained by Drake in the famous capture of the plate ship in the South Sea.\nOne of the old buccaneer writers of a century later says: \"The Spaniards affirm to this day that he took at that time twelvescore tons of plate and sixteen bowls of coined money a man (his number being then forty-five men in all), insomuch that they were forced to heave much of it overboard, because his ship could not carry it all.\"\nMaybe this was a very greatly exaggerated statement put by the author and his Spanish authorities, nevertheless there was enough truth in it to prove very conclusively to the bold minds of the age that tremendous profits\u2014\"purchases\" they called them\u2014were to be made from piracy. The Western World is filled with the names of daring mariners of those old days, who came flitting across the great trackless ocean in their little tublike boats of a few hundred tons burden, partly to explore unknown seas, partly\u2014largely, perhaps\u2014in pursuit of Spanish treasure: Frobisher, Davis, Drake, and a score of others.\nIn this left-handed war against Catholic Spain many of the adventurers were, no doubt, stirred and incited by a grim, Calvinistic, puritanical zeal for Protestantism. But equally beyond doubt the gold and silver and plate of the \"Scarlet Woman\" had much to do with the persistent energy with which these hardy mariners braved the mysterious, unknown terrors of the great unknown ocean that stretched away to the sunset, there in faraway waters to attack the huge, unwieldy, treasure-laden galleons that sailed up and down the Caribbean Sea and through the Bahama Channel.\nOf all ghastly and terrible things old-time religious war was the most ghastly and terrible. One can hardly credit nowadays the cold, callous cruelty of those times. Generally death was the least penalty that capture entailed. When the Spaniards made prisoners of the English, the Inquisition took them in hand, and what that meant all the world knows. When the English captured a Spanish vessel the prisoners were tortured, either for the sake of revenge or to compel them to disclose where treasure lay hidden. Cruelty begat cruelty, and it would be hard to say whether the Anglo-Saxon or the Latin showed himself to be most proficient in torturing his victim.\nWhen Cobham, for instance, captured the Spanish ship in the Bay of Biscay, after all resistance was over and the heat of the battle had cooled, he ordered his crew to bind the captain and all of the crew and every Spaniard aboard\u2014whether in arms or not\u2014to sew them up in the mainsail and to fling them overboard. There were some twenty dead bodies in the sail when a few days later it was washed up on the shore.\nOf course such acts were not likely to go unavenged, and many an innocent life was sacrificed to pay the debt of Cobham's cruelty.\nNothing could be more piratical than all this. Nevertheless, as was said, it was winked at, condoned, if not sanctioned, by the law; and it was not beneath people of family and respectability to take part in it. But by and by Protestantism and Catholicism began to be at somewhat less deadly enmity with each other; religious wars were still far enough from being ended, but the scabbard of the sword was no longer flung away when the blade was drawn. And so followed a time of nominal peace, and a generation arose with whom it was no longer respectable and worthy\u2014one might say a matter of duty\u2014to fight a country with which one's own land was not at war. Nevertheless, the seed had been sown; it had been demonstrated that it was feasible to practice piracy against Spain and not to suffer therefor. Blood had been shed and cruelty practiced, and, once indulged, no lust seems stronger than that of shedding blood and practicing cruelty.\nThough Spain might be ever so well grounded in peace at home, in the West Indies she was always at war with the whole world\u2014English, French, Dutch. It was almost a matter of life or death with her to keep her hold upon the New World. At home she was bankrupt and, upon the earthquake of the Reformation, her power was already beginning to totter and to crumble to pieces. America was her treasure house, and from it alone could she hope to keep her leaking purse full of gold and silver. So it was that she strove strenuously, desperately, to keep out the world from her American possessions\u2014a bootless task, for the old order upon which her power rested was broken and crumbled forever. But still she strove, fighting against fate, and so it was that in the tropical America it was one continual war between her and all the world. Thus it came that, long after piracy ceased to be allowed at home, it continued in those far-away seas with unabated vigor, recruiting to its service all that lawless malign element which gathers together in every newly opened country where the only law is lawlessness, where might is right and where a living is to be gained with no more trouble than cutting a throat. {signature Howard Pyle His Mark}\nHOWARD PILE'S BOOK OF PIRATES\nChapter I. BUCCANEERS AND MAROONERS OF THE SPANISH MAIN\nJUST above the northwestern shore of the old island of Hispaniola\u2014the Santo Domingo of our day\u2014and separated from it only by a narrow channel of some five or six miles in width, lies a queer little hunch of an island, known, because of a distant resemblance to that animal, as the Tortuga de Mar, or sea turtle. It is not more than twenty miles in length by perhaps seven or eight in breadth; it is only a little spot of land, and as you look at it upon the map a pin's head would almost cover it; yet from that spot, as from a center of inflammation, a burning fire of human wickedness and ruthlessness and lust overran the world, and spread terror and death throughout the Spanish West Indies, from St. Augustine to the island of Trinidad, and from Panama to the coasts of Peru.\nAbout the middle of the seventeenth century certain French adventurers set out from the fortified island of St. Christopher in longboats and hoys, directing their course to the westward, there to discover new islands. Sighting Hispaniola \"with abundance of joy,\" they landed, and went into the country, where they found great quantities of wild cattle, horses, and swine.\nNow vessels on the return voyage to Europe from the West Indies needed revictualing, and food, especially flesh, was at a premium in the islands of the Spanish Main; wherefore a great profit was to be turned in preserving beef and pork, and selling the flesh to homeward-bound vessels.\nThe northwestern shore of Hispaniola, lying as it does at the eastern outlet of the old Bahama Channel, running between the island of Cuba and the great Bahama Banks, lay almost in the very main stream of travel. The pioneer Frenchmen were not slow to discover the double advantage to be reaped from the wild cattle that cost them nothing to procure, and a market for the flesh ready found for them. So down upon Hispaniola they came by boatloads and shiploads, gathering like a swarm of mosquitoes, and overrunning the whole western end of the island. There they established themselves, spending the time alternately in hunting the wild cattle and buccanning(1) the meat, and squandering their hardly earned gains in wild debauchery, the opportunities for which were never lacking in the Spanish West Indies.\n(1) Buccanning, by which the \"buccaneers\" gained their name, was of process of curing thin strips of meat by salting, smoking, and drying in the sun.\nAt first the Spaniards thought nothing of the few travel-worn Frenchmen who dragged their longboats and hoys up on the beach, and shot a wild bullock or two to keep body and soul together; but when the few grew to dozens, and the dozens to scores, and the scores to hundreds, it was a very different matter, and wrathful grumblings and mutterings began to be heard among the original settlers.\nBut of this the careless buccaneers thought never a whit, the only thing that troubled them being the lack of a more convenient shipping point than the main island afforded them.\nThis lack was at last filled by a party of hunters who ventured across the narrow channel that separated the main island from Tortuga. Here they found exactly what they needed\u2014a good harbor, just at the junction of the Windward Channel with the old Bahama Channel\u2014a spot where four-fifths of the Spanish-Indian trade would pass by their very wharves.\nThere were a few Spaniards upon the island, but they were a quiet folk, and well disposed to make friends with the strangers; but when more Frenchmen and still more Frenchmen crossed the narrow channel, until they overran the Tortuga and turned it into one great curing house for the beef which they shot upon the neighboring island, the Spaniards grew restive over the matter, just as they had done upon the larger island.\nAccordingly, one fine day there came half a dozen great boatloads of armed Spaniards, who landed upon the Turtle's Back and sent the Frenchmen flying to the woods and fastnesses of rocks as the chaff flies before the thunder gust. That night the Spaniards drank themselves mad and shouted themselves hoarse over their victory, while the beaten Frenchmen sullenly paddled their canoes back to the main island again, and the Sea Turtle was Spanish once more.\nBut the Spaniards were not contented with such a petty triumph as that of sweeping the island of Tortuga free from the obnoxious strangers, down upon Hispaniola they came, flushed with their easy victory, and determined to root out every Frenchman, until not one single buccaneer remained. For a time they had an easy thing of it, for each French hunter roamed the woods by himself, with no better company than his half-wild dogs, so that when two or three Spaniards would meet such a one, he seldom if ever came out of the woods again, for even his resting place was lost.\nBut the very success of the Spaniards brought their ruin along with it, for the buccaneers began to combine together for self-protection, and out of that combination arose a strange union of lawless man with lawless man, so near, so close, that it can scarce be compared to any other than that of husband and wife. When two entered upon this comradeship, articles were drawn up and signed by both parties, a common stock was made of all their possessions, and out into the woods they went to seek their fortunes; thenceforth they were as one man; they lived together by day, they slept together by night; what one suffered, the other suffered; what one gained, the other gained. The only separation that came betwixt them was death, and then the survivor inherited all that the other left. And now it was another thing with Spanish buccaneer hunting, for two buccaneers, reckless of life, quick of eye, and true of aim, were worth any half dozen of Spanish islanders.\nBy and by, as the French became more strongly organized for mutual self-protection, they assumed the offensive. Then down they came upon Tortuga, and now it was the turn of the Spanish to be hunted off the island like vermin, and the turn of the French to shout their victory.\nHaving firmly established themselves, a governor was sent to the French of Tortuga, one M. le Passeur, from the island of St. Christopher; the Sea Turtle was fortified, and colonists, consisting of men of doubtful character and women of whose character there could be no doubt whatever, began pouring in upon the island, for it was said that the buccaneers thought no more of a doubloon than of a Lima bean, so that this was the place for the brothel and the brandy shop to reap their golden harvest, and the island remained French.\nHitherto the Tortugans had been content to gain as much as possible from the homeward-bound vessels through the orderly channels of legitimate trade. It was reserved for Pierre le Grand to introduce piracy as a quicker and more easy road to wealth than the semi-honest exchange they had been used to practice.\nGathering together eight-and-twenty other spirits as hardy and reckless as himself, he put boldly out to sea in a boat hardly large enough to hold his crew, and running down the Windward Channel and out into the Caribbean Sea, he lay in wait for such a prize as might be worth the risks of winning.\nFor a while their luck was steadily against them; their provisions and water began to fail, and they saw nothing before them but starvation or a humiliating return. In this extremity they sighted a Spanish ship belonging to a \"flota\" which had become separated from her consorts.\nThe boat in which the buccaneers sailed might, perhaps, have served for the great ship's longboat; the Spaniards out-numbered them three to one, and Pierre and his men were armed only with pistols and cutlasses; nevertheless this was their one and their only chance, and they determined to take the Spanish ship or to die in the attempt. Down upon the Spaniard they bore through the dusk of the night, and giving orders to the \"chirurgeon\" to scuttle their craft under them as they were leaving it, they swarmed up the side of the unsuspecting ship and upon its decks in a torrent\u2014pistol in one hand and cutlass in the other. A part of them ran to the gun room and secured the arms and ammunition, pistoling or cutting down all such as stood in their way or offered opposition; the other party burst into the great cabin at the heels of Pierre le Grand, found the captain and a party of his friends at cards, set a pistol to his breast, and demanded him to deliver up the ship. Nothing remained for the Spaniard but to yield, for there was no alternative between surrender and death. And so the great prize was won.\nIt was not long before the news of this great exploit and of the vast treasure gained reached the ears of the buccaneers of Tortuga and Hispaniola. Then what a hubbub and an uproar and a tumult there was! Hunting wild cattle and buccanning the meat was at a discount, and the one and only thing to do was to go a-pirating; for where one such prize had been won, others were to be had.\nIn a short time freebooting assumed all of the routine of a regular business. Articles were drawn up betwixt captain and crew, compacts were sealed, and agreements entered into by the one party and the other.\nIn all professions there are those who make their mark, those who succeed only moderately well, and those who fail more or less entirely. Nor did pirating differ from this general rule, for in it were men who rose to distinction, men whose names, something tarnished and rusted by the lapse of years, have come down even to us of the present day.\nPierre Francois, who, with his boatload of six-and-twenty desperadoes, ran boldly into the midst of the pearl fleet off the coast of South America, attacked the vice admiral under the very guns of two men-of-war, captured his ship, though she was armed with eight guns and manned with threescore men, and would have got her safely away, only that having to put on sail, their mainmast went by the board, whereupon the men-of-war came up with them, and the prize was lost.\nBut even though there were two men-of-war against all that remained of six-and-twenty buccaneers, the Spaniards were glad enough to make terms with them for the surrender of the vessel, whereby Pierre Francois and his men came off scot-free.\nBartholomew Portuguese was a worthy of even more note. In a boat manned with thirty fellow adventurers he fell upon a great ship off Cape Corrientes, manned with threescore and ten men, all told.\nHer he assaulted again and again, beaten off with the very pressure of numbers only to renew the assault, until the Spaniards who survived, some fifty in all, surrendered to twenty living pirates, who poured upon their decks like a score of blood-stained, powder-grimed devils.\nThey lost their vessel by recapture, and Bartholomew Portuguese barely escaped with his life through a series of almost unbelievable adventures. But no sooner had he fairly escaped from the clutches of the Spaniards than, gathering together another band of adventurers, he fell upon the very same vessel in the gloom of the night, recaptured her when she rode at anchor in the harbor of Campeche under the guns of the fort, slipped the cable, and was away without the loss of a single man. He lost her in a hurricane soon afterward, just off the Isle of Pines; but the deed was none the less daring for all that.\nAnother notable no less famous than these two worthies was Roch Braziliano, the truculent Dutchman who came up from the coast of Brazil to the Spanish Main with a name ready-made for him. Upon the very first adventure which he undertook he captured a plate ship of fabulous value, and brought her safely into Jamaica; and when at last captured by the Spaniards, he fairly frightened them into letting him go by truculent threats of vengeance from his followers.\nSuch were three of the pirate buccaneers who infested the Spanish Main. There were hundreds no less desperate, no less reckless, no less insatiate in their lust for plunder, than they.\nThe effects of this freebooting soon became apparent. The risks to be assumed by the owners of vessels and the shippers of merchandise became so enormous that Spanish commerce was practically swept away from these waters. No vessel dared to venture out of port excepting under escort of powerful men-of-war, and even then they were not always secure from molestation. Exports from Central and South America were sent to Europe by way of the Strait of Magellan, and little or none went through the passes between the Bahamas and the Caribbees.\nSo at last \"buccaneering,\" as it had come to be generically called, ceased to pay the vast dividends that it had done at first. The cream was skimmed off, and only very thin milk was left in the dish. Fabulous fortunes were no longer earned in a ten days' cruise, but what money was won hardly paid for the risks of the winning. There must be a new departure, or buccaneering would cease to exist.\nThen arose one who showed the buccaneers a new way to squeeze money out of the Spaniards. This man was an Englishman\u2014Lewis Scot.\nThe stoppage of commerce on the Spanish Main had naturally tended to accumulate all the wealth gathered and produced into the chief fortified cities and towns of the West Indies. As there no longer existed prizes upon the sea, they must be gained upon the land, if they were to be gained at all. Lewis Scot was the first to appreciate this fact.\nGathering together a large and powerful body of men as hungry for plunder and as desperate as himself, he descended upon the town of Campeche, which he captured and sacked, stripping it of everything that could possibly be carried away.\nWhen the town was cleared to the bare walls Scot threatened to set the torch to every house in the place if it was not ransomed by a large sum of money which he demanded. With this booty he set sail for Tortuga, where he arrived safely\u2014and the problem was solved.\nAfter him came one Mansvelt, a buccaneer of lesser note, who first made a descent upon the isle of Saint Catharine, now Old Providence, which he took, and, with this as a base, made an unsuccessful descent upon Neuva Granada and Cartagena. His name might not have been handed down to us along with others of greater fame had he not been the master of that most apt of pupils, the great Captain Henry Morgan, most famous of all the buccaneers, one time governor of Jamaica, and knighted by King Charles II.\nAfter Mansvelt followed the bold John Davis, native of Jamaica, where he sucked in the lust of piracy with his mother's milk. With only fourscore men, he swooped down upon the great city of Nicaragua in the darkness of the night, silenced the sentry with the thrust of a knife, and then fell to pillaging the churches and houses \"without any respect or veneration.\"\nOf course it was but a short time until the whole town was in an uproar of alarm, and there was nothing left for the little handful of men to do but to make the best of their way to their boats. They were in the town but a short time, but in that time they were able to gather together and to carry away money and jewels to the value of fifty thousand pieces of eight, besides dragging off with them a dozen or more notable prisoners, whom they held for ransom.\nAnd now one appeared upon the scene who reached a far greater height than any had arisen to before. This was Francois l'Olonoise, who sacked the great city of Maracaibo and the town of Gibraltar. Cold, unimpassioned, pitiless, his sluggish blood was never moved by one single pulse of human warmth, his icy heart was never touched by one ray of mercy or one spark of pity for the hapless wretches who chanced to fall into his bloody hands.\nAgainst him the governor of Havana sent out a great war vessel, and with it a negro executioner, so that there might be no inconvenient delays of law after the pirates had been captured. But l'Olonoise did not wait for the coming of the war vessel; he went out to meet it, and he found it where it lay riding at anchor in the mouth of the river Estra. At the dawn of the morning he made his attack sharp, unexpected, decisive. In a little while the Spaniards were forced below the hatches, and the vessel was taken. Then came the end. One by one the poor shrieking wretches were dragged up from below, and one by one they were butchered in cold blood, while l'Olonoise stood upon the poop deck and looked coldly down upon what was being done. Among the rest the negro was dragged upon the deck. He begged and implored that his life might be spared, promising to tell all that might be asked of him. L'Olonoise questioned him, and when he had squeezed him dry, waved his hand coldly, and the poor black went with the rest. Only one man was spared; him he sent to the governor of Havana with a message that henceforth he would give no quarter to any Spaniard whom he might meet in arms\u2014a message which was not an empty threat.\nThe rise of l'Olonoise was by no means rapid. He worked his way up by dint of hard labor and through much ill fortune. But by and by, after many reverses, the tide turned, and carried him with it from one success to another, without let or stay, to the bitter end.\nCruising off Maracaibo, he captured a rich prize laden with a vast amount of plate and ready money, and there conceived the design of descending upon the powerful town of Maracaibo itself. Without loss of time he gathered together five hundred picked scoundrels from Tortuga, and taking with him one Michael de Basco as land captain, and two hundred more buccaneers whom he commanded, down he came into the Gulf of Venezuela and upon the doomed city like a blast of the plague. Leaving their vessels, the buccaneers made a land attack upon the fort that stood at the mouth of the inlet that led into Lake Maracaibo and guarded the city.\nThe Spaniards held out well, and fought with all the might that Spaniards possess; but after a fight of three hours all was given up and the garrison fled, spreading terror and confusion before them. As many of the inhabitants of the city as could do so escaped in boats to Gibraltar, which lies to the southward, on the shores of Lake Maracaibo, at the distance of some forty leagues or more.\nThen the pirates marched into the town, and what followed may be conceived. It was a holocaust of lust, of passion, and of blood such as even the Spanish West Indies had never seen before. Houses and churches were sacked until nothing was left but the bare walls; men and women were tortured to compel them to disclose where more treasure lay hidden.\nThen, having wrenched all that they could from Maracaibo, they entered the lake and descended upon Gibraltar, where the rest of the panic-stricken inhabitants were huddled together in a blind terror.\nThe governor of Merida, a brave soldier who had served his king in Flanders, had gathered together a troop of eight hundred men, had fortified the town, and now lay in wait for the coming of the pirates. The pirates came all in good time, and then, in spite of the brave defense, Gibraltar also fell. Then followed a repetition of the scenes that had been enacted in Maracaibo for the past fifteen days, only here they remained for four horrible weeks, extorting money\u2014money! ever money!\u2014from the poor poverty-stricken, pest-ridden souls crowded into that fever hole of a town.\nThen they left, but before they went they demanded still more money\u2014ten thousand pieces of eight\u2014as a ransom for the town, which otherwise should be given to the flames. There was some hesitation on the part of the Spaniards, some disposition to haggle, but there was no hesitation on the part of l'Olonoise. The torch WAS set to the town as he had promised, whereupon the money was promptly paid, and the pirates were piteously begged to help quench the spreading flames. This they were pleased to do, but in spite of all their efforts nearly half of the town was consumed.\nAfter that they returned to Maracaibo again, where they demanded a ransom of thirty thousand pieces of eight for the city. There was no haggling here, thanks to the fate of Gibraltar; only it was utterly impossible to raise that much money in all of the poverty-stricken region. But at last the matter was compromised, and the town was redeemed for twenty thousand pieces of eight and five hundred head of cattle, and tortured Maracaibo was quit of them.\nIn the Ile de la Vache the buccaneers shared among themselves two hundred and sixty thousand pieces of eight, besides jewels and bales of silk and linen and miscellaneous plunder to a vast amount.\nSuch was the one great deed of l'Olonoise; from that time his star steadily declined\u2014for even nature seemed fighting against such a monster\u2014until at last he died a miserable, nameless death at the hands of an unknown tribe of Indians upon the Isthmus of Darien.\nAnd now we come to the greatest of all the buccaneers, he who stands pre-eminent among them, and whose name even to this day is a charm to call up his deeds of daring, his dauntless courage, his truculent cruelty, and his insatiate and unappeasable lust for gold\u2014Capt. Henry Morgan, the bold Welshman, who brought buccaneering to the height and flower of its glory.\nHaving sold himself, after the manner of the times, for his passage across the seas, he worked out his time of servitude at the Barbados. As soon as he had regained his liberty he entered upon the trade of piracy, wherein he soon reached a position of considerable prominence. He was associated with Mansvelt at the time of the latter's descent upon Saint Catharine's Isle, the importance of which spot, as a center of operations against the neighboring coasts, Morgan never lost sight of.\nThe first attempt that Capt. Henry Morgan ever made against any town in the Spanish Indies was the bold descent upon the city of Puerto del Principe in the island of Cuba, with a mere handful of men. It was a deed the boldness of which has never been outdone by any of a like nature\u2014not even the famous attack upon Panama itself. Thence they returned to their boats in the very face of the whole island of Cuba, aroused and determined upon their extermination. Not only did they make good their escape, but they brought away with them a vast amount of plunder, computed at three hundred thousand pieces of eight, besides five hundred head of cattle and many prisoners held for ransom.\nBut when the division of all this wealth came to be made, lo! there were only fifty thousand pieces of eight to be found. What had become of the rest no man could tell but Capt. Henry Morgan himself. Honesty among thieves was never an axiom with him.\nRude, truculent, and dishonest as Captain Morgan was, he seems to have had a wonderful power of persuading the wild buccaneers under him to submit everything to his judgment, and to rely entirely upon his word. In spite of the vast sum of money that he had very evidently made away with, recruits poured in upon him, until his band was larger and better equipped than ever.\nAnd now it was determined that the plunder harvest was ripe at Porto Bello, and that city's doom was sealed. The town was defended by two strong castles thoroughly manned, and officered by as gallant a soldier as ever carried Toledo steel at his side. But strong castles and gallant soldiers weighed not a barleycorn with the buccaneers when their blood was stirred by the lust of gold.\nLanding at Puerto Naso, a town some ten leagues westward of Porto Bello, they marched to the latter town, and coming before the castle, boldly demanded its surrender. It was refused, whereupon Morgan threatened that no quarter should be given. Still surrender was refused; and then the castle was attacked, and after a bitter struggle was captured. Morgan was as good as his word: every man in the castle was shut in the guard room, the match was set to the powder magazine, and soldiers, castle, and all were blown into the air, while through all the smoke and the dust the buccaneers poured into the town. Still the governor held out in the other castle, and might have made good his defense, but that he was betrayed by the soldiers under him. Into the castle poured the howling buccaneers. But still the governor fought on, with his wife and daughter clinging to his knees and beseeching him to surrender, and the blood from his wounded forehead trickling down over his white collar, until a merciful bullet put an end to the vain struggle.\nHere were enacted the old scenes. Everything plundered that could be taken, and then a ransom set upon the town itself.\nThis time an honest, or an apparently honest, division was made of the spoils, which amounted to two hundred and fifty thousand pieces of eight, besides merchandise and jewels.\nThe next towns to suffer were poor Maracaibo and Gibraltar, now just beginning to recover from the desolation wrought by l'Olonoise. Once more both towns were plundered of every bale of merchandise and of every plaster, and once more both were ransomed until everything was squeezed from the wretched inhabitants.\nHere affairs were like to have taken a turn, for when Captain Morgan came up from Gibraltar he found three great men-of-war lying in the entrance to the lake awaiting his coming. Seeing that he was hemmed in in the narrow sheet of water, Captain Morgan was inclined to compromise matters, even offering to relinquish all the plunder he had gained if he were allowed to depart in peace. But no; the Spanish admiral would hear nothing of this. Having the pirates, as he thought, securely in his grasp, he would relinquish nothing, but would sweep them from the face of the sea once and forever.\nThat was an unlucky determination for the Spaniards to reach, for instead of paralyzing the pirates with fear, as he expected it would do, it simply turned their mad courage into as mad desperation.\nA great vessel that they had taken with the town of Maracaibo was converted into a fire ship, manned with logs of wood in montera caps and sailor jackets, and filled with brimstone, pitch, and palm leaves soaked in oil. Then out of the lake the pirates sailed to meet the Spaniards, the fire ship leading the way, and bearing down directly upon the admiral's vessel. At the helm stood volunteers, the most desperate and the bravest of all the pirate gang, and at the ports stood the logs of wood in montera caps. So they came up with the admiral, and grappled with his ship in spite of the thunder of all his great guns, and then the Spaniard saw, all too late, what his opponent really was.\nHe tried to swing loose, but clouds of smoke and almost instantly a mass of roaring flames enveloped both vessels, and the admiral was lost. The second vessel, not wishing to wait for the coming of the pirates, bore down upon the fort, under the guns of which the cowardly crew sank her, and made the best of their way to the shore. The third vessel, not having an opportunity to escape, was taken by the pirates without the slightest resistance, and the passage from the lake was cleared. So the buccaneers sailed away, leaving Maracaibo and Gibraltar prostrate a second time.\nAnd now Captain Morgan determined to undertake another venture, the like of which had never been equaled in all of the annals of buccaneering. This was nothing less than the descent upon and the capture of Panama, which was, next to Cartagena, perhaps, the most powerful and the most strongly fortified city in the West Indies.\nIn preparation for this venture he obtained letters of marque from the governor of Jamaica, by virtue of which elastic commission he began immediately to gather around him all material necessary for the undertaking.\nWhen it became known abroad that the great Captain Morgan was about undertaking an adventure that was to eclipse all that was ever done before, great numbers came flocking to his standard, until he had gathered together an army of two thousand or more desperadoes and pirates wherewith to prosecute his adventure, albeit the venture itself was kept a total secret from everyone. Port Couillon, in the island of Hispaniola, over against the Ile de la Vache, was the place of muster, and thither the motley band gathered from all quarters. Provisions had been plundered from the mainland wherever they could be obtained, and by the 24th of October, 1670 (O. S.), everything was in readiness.\nThe island of Saint Catharine, as it may be remembered, was at one time captured by Mansvelt, Morgan's master in his trade of piracy. It had been retaken by the Spaniards, and was now thoroughly fortified by them. Almost the first attempt that Morgan had made as a master pirate was the retaking of Saint Catharine's Isle. In that undertaking he had failed; but now, as there was an absolute need of some such place as a base of operations, he determined that the place must be taken. And it was taken.\nThe Spaniards, during the time of their possession, had fortified it most thoroughly and completely, and had the governor thereof been as brave as he who met his death in the castle of Porto Bello, there might have been a different tale to tell. As it was, he surrendered it in a most cowardly fashion, merely stipulating that there should be a sham attack by the buccaneers, whereby his credit might be saved. And so Saint Catharine was won.\nThe next step to be taken was the capture of the castle of Chagres, which guarded the mouth of the river of that name, up which river the buccaneers would be compelled to transport their troops and provisions for the attack upon the city of Panama. This adventure was undertaken by four hundred picked men under command of Captain Morgan himself.\nThe castle of Chagres, known as San Lorenzo by the Spaniards, stood upon the top of an abrupt rock at the mouth of the river, and was one of the strongest fortresses for its size in all of the West Indies. This stronghold Morgan must have if he ever hoped to win Panama.\nThe attack of the castle and the defense of it were equally fierce, bloody, and desperate. Again and again the buccaneers assaulted, and again and again they were beaten back. So the morning came, and it seemed as though the pirates had been baffled this time. But just at this juncture the thatch of palm leaves on the roofs of some of the buildings inside the fortifications took fire, a conflagration followed, which caused the explosion of one of the magazines, and in the paralysis of terror that followed, the pirates forced their way into the fortifications, and the castle was won. Most of the Spaniards flung themselves from the castle walls into the river or upon the rocks beneath, preferring death to capture and possible torture; many who were left were put to the sword, and some few were spared and held as prisoners.\nSo fell the castle of Chagres, and nothing now lay between the buccaneers and the city of Panama but the intervening and trackless forests.\nAnd now the name of the town whose doom was sealed was no secret.\nUp the river of Chagres went Capt. Henry Morgan and twelve hundred men, packed closely in their canoes; they never stopped, saving now and then to rest their stiffened legs, until they had come to a place known as Cruz de San Juan Gallego, where they were compelled to leave their boats on account of the shallowness of the water.\nLeaving a guard of one hundred and sixty men to protect their boats as a place of refuge in case they should be worsted before Panama, they turned and plunged into the wilderness before them.\nThere a more powerful foe awaited them than a host of Spaniards with match, powder, and lead\u2014starvation. They met but little or no opposition in their progress; but wherever they turned they found every fiber of meat, every grain of maize, every ounce of bread or meal, swept away or destroyed utterly before them. Even when the buccaneers had successfully overcome an ambuscade or an attack, and had sent the Spaniards flying, the fugitives took the time to strip their dead comrades of every grain of food in their leathern sacks, leaving nothing but the empty bags.\nSays the narrator of these events, himself one of the expedition, \"They afterward fell to eating those leathern bags, as affording something to the ferment of their stomachs.\"\nTen days they struggled through this bitter privation, doggedly forcing their way onward, faint with hunger and haggard with weakness and fever. Then, from the high hill and over the tops of the forest trees, they saw the steeples of Panama, and nothing remained between them and their goal but the fighting of four Spaniards to every one of them\u2014a simple thing which they had done over and over again.\nDown they poured upon Panama, and out came the Spaniards to meet them; four hundred horse, two thousand five hundred foot, and two thousand wild bulls which had been herded together to be driven over the buccaneers so that their ranks might be disordered and broken. The buccaneers were only eight hundred strong; the others had either fallen in battle or had dropped along the dreary pathway through the wilderness; but in the space of two hours the Spaniards were flying madly over the plain, minus six hundred who lay dead or dying behind them.\nAs for the bulls, as many of them as were shot served as food there and then for the half-famished pirates, for the buccaneers were never more at home than in the slaughter of cattle.\nThen they marched toward the city. Three hours' more fighting and they were in the streets, howling, yelling, plundering, gorging, dram-drinking, and giving full vent to all the vile and nameless lusts that burned in their hearts like a hell of fire. And now followed the usual sequence of events\u2014rapine, cruelty, and extortion; only this time there was no town to ransom, for Morgan had given orders that it should be destroyed. The torch was set to it, and Panama, one of the greatest cities in the New World, was swept from the face of the earth. Why the deed was done, no man but Morgan could tell. Perhaps it was that all the secret hiding places for treasure might be brought to light; but whatever the reason was, it lay hidden in the breast of the great buccaneer himself. For three weeks Morgan and his men abode in this dreadful place; and they marched away with ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE beasts of burden loaded with treasures of gold and silver and jewels, besides great quantities of merchandise, and six hundred prisoners held for ransom.\nWhatever became of all that vast wealth, and what it amounted to, no man but Morgan ever knew, for when a division was made it was found that there was only TWO HUNDRED PIECES OF EIGHT TO EACH MAN.\nWhen this dividend was declared a howl of execration went up, under which even Capt. Henry Morgan quailed. At night he and four other commanders slipped their cables and ran out to sea, and it was said that these divided the greater part of the booty among themselves. But the wealth plundered at Panama could hardly have fallen short of a million and a half of dollars. Computing it at this reasonable figure, the various prizes won by Henry Morgan in the West Indies would stand as follows: Panama, $1,500,000; Porto Bello, $800,000; Puerto del Principe, $700,000; Maracaibo and Gibraltar, $400,000; various piracies, $250,000\u2014making a grand total of $3,650,000 as the vast harvest of plunder. With this fabulous wealth, wrenched from the Spaniards by means of the rack and the cord, and pilfered from his companions by the meanest of thieving, Capt. Henry Morgan retired from business, honored of all, rendered famous by his deeds, knighted by the good King Charles II, and finally appointed governor of the rich island of Jamaica.\nOther buccaneers followed him. Campeche was taken and sacked, and even Cartagena itself fell; but with Henry Morgan culminated the glory of the buccaneers, and from that time they declined in power and wealth and wickedness until they were finally swept away.\nThe buccaneers became bolder and bolder. In fact, so daring were their crimes that the home governments, stirred at last by these outrageous barbarities, seriously undertook the suppression of the freebooters, lopping and trimming the main trunk until its members were scattered hither and thither, and it was thought that the organization was exterminated. But, so far from being exterminated, the individual members were merely scattered north, south, east, and west, each forming a nucleus around which gathered and clustered the very worst of the offscouring of humanity.\nThe result was that when the seventeenth century was fairly packed away with its lavender in the store chest of the past, a score or more bands of freebooters were cruising along the Atlantic seaboard in armed vessels, each with a black flag with its skull and crossbones at the fore, and with a nondescript crew made up of the tags and remnants of civilized and semicivilized humanity (white, black, red, and yellow), known generally as marooners, swarming upon the decks below.\nNor did these offshoots from the old buccaneer stem confine their depredations to the American seas alone; the East Indies and the African coast also witnessed their doings, and suffered from them, and even the Bay of Biscay had good cause to remember more than one visit from them.\nWorthy sprigs from so worthy a stem improved variously upon the parent methods; for while the buccaneers were content to prey upon the Spaniards alone, the marooners reaped the harvest from the commerce of all nations.\nSo up and down the Atlantic seaboard they cruised, and for the fifty years that marooning was in the flower of its glory it was a sorrowful time for the coasters of New England, the middle provinces, and the Virginias, sailing to the West Indies with their cargoes of salt fish, grain, and tobacco. Trading became almost as dangerous as privateering, and sea captains were chosen as much for their knowledge of the flintlock and the cutlass as for their seamanship.\nAs by far the largest part of the trading in American waters was conducted by these Yankee coasters, so by far the heaviest blows, and those most keenly felt, fell upon them. Bulletin after bulletin came to port with its doleful tale of this vessel burned or that vessel scuttled, this one held by the pirates for their own use or that one stripped of its goods and sent into port as empty as an eggshell from which the yolk had been sucked. Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Charleston suffered alike, and worthy ship owners had to leave off counting their losses upon their fingers and take to the slate to keep the dismal record.\n\"Maroon\u2014to put ashore on a desert isle, as a sailor, under pretense of having committed some great crime.\" Thus our good Noah Webster gives us the dry bones, the anatomy, upon which the imagination may construct a specimen to suit itself.\nIt is thence that the marooners took their name, for marooning was one of their most effective instruments of punishment or revenge. If a pirate broke one of the many rules which governed the particular band to which he belonged, he was marooned; did a captain defend his ship to such a degree as to be unpleasant to the pirates attacking it, he was marooned; even the pirate captain himself, if he displeased his followers by the severity of his rule, was in danger of having the same punishment visited upon him which he had perhaps more than once visited upon another.\nThe process of marooning was as simple as terrible. A suitable place was chosen (generally some desert isle as far removed as possible from the pathway of commerce), and the condemned man was rowed from the ship to the beach. Out he was bundled upon the sand spit; a gun, a half dozen bullets, a few pinches of powder, and a bottle of water were chucked ashore after him, and away rowed the boat's crew back to the ship, leaving the poor wretch alone to rave away his life in madness, or to sit sunken in his gloomy despair till death mercifully released him from torment. It rarely if ever happened that anything was known of him after having been marooned. A boat's crew from some vessel, sailing by chance that way, might perhaps find a few chalky bones bleaching upon the white sand in the garish glare of the sunlight, but that was all. And such were marooners.\nBy far the largest number of pirate captains were Englishmen, for, from the days of good Queen Bess, English sea captains seemed to have a natural turn for any species of venture that had a smack of piracy in it, and from the great Admiral Drake of the old, old days, to the truculent Morgan of buccaneering times, the Englishman did the boldest and wickedest deeds, and wrought the most damage.\nFirst of all upon the list of pirates stands the bold Captain Avary, one of the institutors of marooning. Him we see but dimly, half hidden by the glamouring mists of legends and tradition. Others who came afterward outstripped him far enough in their doings, but he stands pre-eminent as the first of marooners of whom actual history has been handed down to us of the present day.\nWhen the English, Dutch, and Spanish entered into an alliance to suppress buccaneering in the West Indies, certain worthies of Bristol, in old England, fitted out two vessels to assist in this laudable project; for doubtless Bristol trade suffered smartly from the Morgans and the l'Olonoises of that old time. One of these vessels was named the Duke, of which a certain Captain Gibson was the commander and Avary the mate.\nAway they sailed to the West Indies, and there Avary became impressed by the advantages offered by piracy, and by the amount of good things that were to be gained by very little striving.\nOne night the captain (who was one of those fellows mightily addicted to punch), instead of going ashore to saturate himself with rum at the ordinary, had his drink in his cabin in private. While he lay snoring away the effects of his rum in the cabin, Avary and a few other conspirators heaved the anchor very leisurely, and sailed out of the harbor of Corunna, and through the midst of the allied fleet riding at anchor in the darkness.\nBy and by, when the morning came, the captain was awakened by the pitching and tossing of the vessel, the rattle and clatter of the tackle overhead, and the noise of footsteps passing and repassing hither and thither across the deck. Perhaps he lay for a while turning the matter over and over in his muddled head, but he presently rang the bell, and Avary and another fellow answered the call.\n\"What's the matter?\" bawls the captain from his berth.\n\"Nothing,\" says Avary, coolly.\n\"Something's the matter with the ship,\" says the captain. \"Does she drive? What weather is it?\"\n\"Oh no,\" says Avary; \"we are at sea.\"\n\"At sea?\"\n\"Come, come!\" says Avary: \"I'll tell you; you must know that I'm the captain of the ship now, and you must be packing from this here cabin. We are bound to Madagascar, to make all of our fortunes, and if you're a mind to ship for the cruise, why, we'll be glad to have you, if you will be sober and mind your own business; if not, there is a boat alongside, and I'll have you set ashore.\"\nThe poor half-tipsy captain had no relish to go a-pirating under the command of his backsliding mate, so out of the ship he bundled, and away he rowed with four or five of the crew, who, like him, refused to join with their jolly shipmates.\nThe rest of them sailed away to the East Indies, to try their fortunes in those waters, for our Captain Avary was of a high spirit, and had no mind to fritter away his time in the West Indies squeezed dry by buccaneer Morgan and others of lesser note. No, he would make a bold stroke for it at once, and make or lose at a single cast.\nOn his way he picked up a couple of like kind with himself\u2014two sloops off Madagascar. With these he sailed away to the coast of India, and for a time his name was lost in the obscurity of uncertain history. But only for a time, for suddenly it flamed out in a blaze of glory. It was reported that a vessel belonging to the Great Mogul, laden with treasure and bearing the monarch's own daughter upon a holy pilgrimage to Mecca (they being Mohammedans), had fallen in with the pirates, and after a short resistance had been surrendered, with the damsel, her court, and all the diamonds, pearls, silk, silver, and gold aboard. It was rumored that the Great Mogul, raging at the insult offered to him through his own flesh and blood, had threatened to wipe out of existence the few English settlements scattered along the coast; whereat the honorable East India Company was in a pretty state of fuss and feathers. Rumor, growing with the telling, has it that Avary is going to marry the Indian princess, willy-nilly, and will turn rajah, and eschew piracy as indecent. As for the treasure itself, there was no end to the extent to which it grew as it passed from mouth to mouth.\nCracking the nut of romance and exaggeration, we come to the kernel of the story\u2014that Avary did fall in with an Indian vessel laden with great treasure (and possibly with the Mogul's daughter), which he captured, and thereby gained a vast prize.\nHaving concluded that he had earned enough money by the trade he had undertaken, he determined to retire and live decently for the rest of his life upon what he already had. As a step toward this object, he set about cheating his Madagascar partners out of their share of what had been gained. He persuaded them to store all the treasure in his vessel, it being the largest of the three; and so, having it safely in hand, he altered the course of his ship one fine night, and when the morning came the Madagascar sloops found themselves floating upon a wide ocean without a farthing of the treasure for which they had fought so hard, and for which they might whistle for all the good it would do them.\nAt first Avary had a great part of a mind to settle at Boston, in Massachusetts, and had that little town been one whit less bleak and forbidding, it might have had the honor of being the home of this famous man. As it was, he did not like the looks of it, so he sailed away to the eastward, to Ireland, where he settled himself at Biddeford, in hopes of an easy life of it for the rest of his days.\nHere he found himself the possessor of a plentiful stock of jewels, such as pearls, diamonds, rubies, etc., but with hardly a score of honest farthings to jingle in his breeches pocket. He consulted with a certain merchant of Bristol concerning the disposal of the stones\u2014a fellow not much more cleanly in his habits of honesty than Avary himself. This worthy undertook to act as Avary's broker. Off he marched with the jewels, and that was the last that the pirate saw of his Indian treasure.\nPerhaps the most famous of all the piratical names to American ears are those of Capt. Robert Kidd and Capt. Edward Teach, or \"Blackbeard.\"\nNothing will be ventured in regard to Kidd at this time, nor in regard to the pros and cons as to whether he really was or was not a pirate, after all. For many years he was the very hero of heroes of piratical fame, there was hardly a creek or stream or point of land along our coast, hardly a convenient bit of good sandy beach, or hump of rock, or water-washed cave, where fabulous treasures were not said to have been hidden by this worthy marooner. Now we are assured that he never was a pirate, and never did bury any treasure, excepting a certain chest, which he was compelled to hide upon Gardiner's Island\u2014and perhaps even it was mythical.\nSo poor Kidd must be relegated to the dull ranks of simply respectable people, or semirespectable people at best.\nBut with \"Blackbeard\" it is different, for in him we have a real, ranting, raging, roaring pirate per se\u2014one who really did bury treasure, who made more than one captain walk the plank, and who committed more private murders than he could number on the fingers of both hands; one who fills, and will continue to fill, the place to which he has been assigned for generations, and who may be depended upon to hold his place in the confidence of others for generations to come.\nCaptain Teach was a Bristol man born, and learned his trade on board of sundry privateers in the East Indies during the old French war\u2014that of 1702\u2014and a better apprenticeship could no man serve. At last, somewhere about the latter part of the year 1716, a privateering captain, one Benjamin Hornigold, raised him from the ranks and put him in command of a sloop\u2014a lately captured prize and Blackbeard's fortune was made. It was a very slight step, and but the change of a few letters, to convert \"privateer\" into \"pirate,\" and it was a very short time before Teach made that change. Not only did he make it himself, but he persuaded his old captain to join with him.\nAnd now fairly began that series of bold and lawless depredations which have made his name so justly famous, and which placed him among the very greatest of marooning freebooters.\n\"Our hero,\" says the old historian who sings of the arms and bravery of this great man\u2014\"our hero assumed the cognomen of Blackbeard from that large quantity of hair which, like a frightful meteor, covered his whole face, and frightened America more than any comet that appeared there in a long time. He was accustomed to twist it with ribbons into small tails, after the manner of our Ramillies wig, and turn them about his ears. In time of action he wore a sling over his shoulders, with three brace of pistols, hanging in holsters like bandoleers; he stuck lighted matches under his hat, which, appearing on each side of his face, and his eyes naturally looking fierce and wild, made him altogether such a figure that imagination cannot form an idea of a Fury from hell to look more frightful.\"\nThe night before the day of the action in which he was killed he sat up drinking with some congenial company until broad daylight. One of them asked him if his poor young wife knew where his treasure was hidden. \"No,\" says Blackbeard; \"nobody but the devil and I knows where it is, and the longest liver shall have all.\"\nAs for that poor young wife of his, the life that he and his rum-crazy shipmates led her was too terrible to be told.\nFor a time Blackbeard worked at his trade down on the Spanish Main, gathering, in the few years he was there, a very neat little fortune in the booty captured from sundry vessels; but by and by he took it into his head to try his luck along the coast of the Carolinas; so off he sailed to the northward, with quite a respectable little fleet, consisting of his own vessel and two captured sloops. From that time he was actively engaged in the making of American history in his small way.\nHe first appeared off the bar of Charleston Harbor, to the no small excitement of the worthy town of that ilk, and there he lay for five or six days, blockading the port, and stopping incoming and outgoing vessels at his pleasure, so that, for the time, the commerce of the province was entirely paralyzed. All the vessels so stopped he held as prizes, and all the crews and passengers (among the latter of whom was more than one provincial worthy of the day) he retained as though they were prisoners of war.\nAnd it was a mightily awkward thing for the good folk of Charleston to behold day after day a black flag with its white skull and crossbones fluttering at the fore of the pirate captain's craft, over across the level stretch of green salt marshes; and it was mightily unpleasant, too, to know that this or that prominent citizen was crowded down with the other prisoners under the hatches.\nOne morning Captain Blackbeard finds that his stock of medicine is low. \"Tut!\" says he, \"we'll turn no hair gray for that.\" So up he calls the bold Captain Richards, the commander of his consort the Revenge sloop, and bids him take Mr. Marks (one of his prisoners), and go up to Charleston and get the medicine. There was no task that suited our Captain Richards better than that. Up to the town he rowed, as bold as brass. \"Look ye,\" says he to the governor, rolling his quid of tobacco from one cheek to another\u2014\"look ye, we're after this and that, and if we don't get it, why, I'll tell you plain, we'll burn them bloody crafts of yours that we've took over yonder, and cut the weasand of every clodpoll aboard of 'em.\"\nThere was no answering an argument of such force as this, and the worshipful governor and the good folk of Charleston knew very well that Blackbeard and his crew were the men to do as they promised. So Blackbeard got his medicine, and though it cost the colony two thousand dollars, it was worth that much to the town to be quit of him.\nThey say that while Captain Richards was conducting his negotiations with the governor his boat's crew were stumping around the streets of the town, having a glorious time of it, while the good folk glowered wrathfully at them, but dared venture nothing in speech or act.\nHaving gained a booty of between seven and eight thousand dollars from the prizes captured, the pirates sailed away from Charleston Harbor to the coast of North Carolina.\nAnd now Blackbeard, following the plan adopted by so many others of his kind, began to cudgel his brains for means to cheat his fellows out of their share of the booty.\nAt Topsail Inlet he ran his own vessel aground, as though by accident. Hands, the captain of one of the consorts, pretending to come to his assistance, also grounded HIS sloop. Nothing now remained but for those who were able to get away in the other craft, which was all that was now left of the little fleet. This did Blackbeard with some forty of his favorites. The rest of the pirates were left on the sand spit to await the return of their companions\u2014which never happened.\nAs for Blackbeard and those who were with him, they were that much richer, for there were so many the fewer pockets to fill. But even yet there were too many to share the booty, in Blackbeard's opinion, and so he marooned a parcel more of them\u2014some eighteen or twenty\u2014upon a naked sand bank, from which they were afterward mercifully rescued by another freebooter who chanced that way\u2014a certain Major Stede Bonnet, of whom more will presently be said. About that time a royal proclamation had been issued offering pardon to all pirates in arms who would surrender to the king's authority before a given date. So up goes Master Blackbeard to the Governor of North Carolina and makes his neck safe by surrendering to the proclamation\u2014albeit he kept tight clutch upon what he had already gained.\nAnd now we find our bold Captain Blackbeard established in the good province of North Carolina, where he and His Worship the Governor struck up a vast deal of intimacy, as profitable as it was pleasant. There is something very pretty in the thought of the bold sea rover giving up his adventurous life (excepting now and then an excursion against a trader or two in the neighboring sound, when the need of money was pressing); settling quietly down into the routine of old colonial life, with a young wife of sixteen at his side, who made the fourteenth that he had in various ports here and there in the world.\nBecoming tired of an inactive life, Blackbeard afterward resumed his piratical career. He cruised around in the rivers and inlets and sounds of North Carolina for a while, ruling the roost and with never a one to say him nay, until there was no bearing with such a pest any longer. So they sent a deputation up to the Governor of Virginia asking if he would be pleased to help them in their trouble.\nThere were two men-of-war lying at Kicquetan, in the James River, at the time. To them the Governor of Virginia applies, and plucky Lieutenant Maynard, of the Pearl, was sent to Ocracoke Inlet to fight this pirate who ruled it down there so like the cock of a walk. There he found Blackbeard waiting for him, and as ready for a fight as ever the lieutenant himself could be. Fight they did, and while it lasted it was as pretty a piece of business of its kind as one could wish to see. Blackbeard drained a glass of grog, wishing the lieutenant luck in getting aboard of him, fired a broadside, blew some twenty of the lieutenant's men out of existence, and totally crippled one of his little sloops for the balance of the fight. After that, and under cover of the smoke, the pirate and his men boarded the other sloop, and then followed a fine old-fashioned hand-to-hand conflict betwixt him and the lieutenant. First they fired their pistols, and then they took to it with cutlasses\u2014right, left, up and down, cut and slash\u2014until the lieutenant's cutlass broke short off at the hilt. Then Blackbeard would have finished him off handsomely, only up steps one of the lieutenant's men and fetches him a great slash over the neck, so that the lieutenant came off with no more hurt than a cut across the knuckles.\nAt the very first discharge of their pistols Blackbeard had been shot through the body, but he was not for giving up for that\u2014not he. As said before, he was of the true roaring, raging breed of pirates, and stood up to it until he received twenty more cutlass cuts and five additional shots, and then fell dead while trying to fire off an empty pistol. After that the lieutenant cut off the pirate's head, and sailed away in triumph, with the bloody trophy nailed to the bow of his battered sloop.\nThose of Blackbeard's men who were not killed were carried off to Virginia, and all of them tried and hanged but one or two, their names, no doubt, still standing in a row in the provincial records.\nBut did Blackbeard really bury treasures, as tradition says, along the sandy shores he haunted?\nMaster Clement Downing, midshipman aboard the Salisbury, wrote a book after his return from the cruise to Madagascar, whither the Salisbury had been ordered, to put an end to the piracy with which those waters were infested. He says:\n\"At Guzarat I met with a Portuguese named Anthony de Sylvestre; he came with two other Portuguese and two Dutchmen to take on in the Moor's service, as many Europeans do. This Anthony told me he had been among the pirates, and that he belonged to one of the sloops in Virginia when Blackbeard was taken. He informed me that if it should be my lot ever to go to York River or Maryland, near an island called Mulberry Island, provided we went on shore at the watering place, where the shipping used most commonly to ride, that there the pirates had buried considerable sums of money in great chests well clamped with iron plates. As to my part, I never was that way, nor much acquainted with any that ever used those parts; but I have made inquiry, and am informed that there is such a place as Mulberry Island. If any person who uses those parts should think it worth while to dig a little way at the upper end of a small cove, where it is convenient to land, he would soon find whether the information I had was well grounded. Fronting the landing place are five trees, among which, he said, the money was hid. I cannot warrant the truth of this account; but if I was ever to go there, I should find some means or other to satisfy myself, as it could not be a great deal out of my way. If anybody should obtain the benefit of this account, if it please God that they ever come to England, 'tis hoped they will remember whence they had this information.\"\nAnother worthy was Capt. Edward Low, who learned his trade of sail-making at good old Boston town, and piracy at Honduras. No one stood higher in the trade than he, and no one mounted to more lofty altitudes of bloodthirsty and unscrupulous wickedness. 'Tis strange that so little has been written and sung of this man of might, for he was as worthy of story and of song as was Blackbeard.\nIt was under a Yankee captain that he made his first cruise\u2014down to Honduras, for a cargo of logwood, which in those times was no better than stolen from the Spanish folk.\nOne day, lying off the shore, in the Gulf of Honduras, comes Master Low and the crew of the whaleboat rowing across from the beach, where they had been all morning chopping logwood.\n\"What are you after?\" says the captain, for they were coming back with nothing but themselves in the boat.\n\"We're after our dinner,\" says Low, as spokesman of the party.\n\"You'll have no dinner,\" says the captain, \"until you fetch off another load.\"\n\"Dinner or no dinner, we'll pay for it,\" says Low, wherewith he up with a musket, squinted along the barrel, and pulled the trigger.\nLuckily the gun hung fire, and the Yankee captain was spared to steal logwood a while longer.\nAll the same, that was no place for Ned Low to make a longer stay, so off he and his messmates rowed in a whaleboat, captured a brig out at sea, and turned pirates.\nHe presently fell in with the notorious Captain Lowther, a fellow after his own kidney, who put the finishing touches to his education and taught him what wickedness he did not already know.\nAnd so he became a master pirate, and a famous hand at his craft, and thereafter forever bore an inveterate hatred of all Yankees because of the dinner he had lost, and never failed to smite whatever one of them luck put within his reach. Once he fell in with a ship off South Carolina\u2014the Amsterdam Merchant, Captain Williamson, commander\u2014a Yankee craft and a Yankee master. He slit the nose and cropped the ears of the captain, and then sailed merrily away, feeling the better for having marred a Yankee.\nNew York and New England had more than one visit from the doughty captain, each of which visits they had good cause to remember, for he made them smart for it.\nAlong in the year 1722 thirteen vessels were riding at anchor in front of the good town of Marblehead. Into the harbor sailed a strange craft. \"Who is she?\" say the townsfolk, for the coming of a new vessel was no small matter in those days.\nWho the strangers were was not long a matter of doubt. Up goes the black flag, and the skull and crossbones to the fore.\n\"'Tis the bloody Low,\" say one and all; and straightway all was flutter and commotion, as in a duck pond when a hawk pitches and strikes in the midst.\nIt was a glorious thing for our captain, for here were thirteen Yankee crafts at one and the same time. So he took what he wanted, and then sailed away, and it was many a day before Marblehead forgot that visit.\nSome time after this he and his consort fell foul of an English sloop of war, the Greyhound, whereby they were so roughly handled that Low was glad enough to slip away, leaving his consort and her crew behind him, as a sop to the powers of law and order. And lucky for them if no worse fate awaited them than to walk the dreadful plank with a bandage around the blinded eyes and a rope around the elbows. So the consort was taken, and the crew tried and hanged in chains, and Low sailed off in as pretty a bit of rage as ever a pirate fell into.\nThe end of this worthy is lost in the fogs of the past: some say that he died of a yellow fever down in New Orleans; it was not at the end of a hempen cord, more's the pity.\nHere fittingly with our strictly American pirates should stand Major Stede Bonnet along with the rest. But in truth he was only a poor half-and-half fellow of his kind, and even after his hand was fairly turned to the business he had undertaken, a qualm of conscience would now and then come across him, and he would make vast promises to forswear his evil courses.\nHowever, he jogged along in his course of piracy snugly enough until he fell foul of the gallant Colonel Rhett, off Charleston Harbor, whereupon his luck and his courage both were suddenly snuffed out with a puff of powder smoke and a good rattling broadside. Down came the \"Black Roger\" with its skull and crossbones from the fore, and Colonel Rhett had the glory of fetching back as pretty a cargo of scoundrels and cutthroats as the town ever saw.\nAfter the next assizes they were strung up, all in a row\u2014evil apples ready for the roasting.\n\"Ned\" England was a fellow of different blood\u2014only he snapped his whip across the back of society over in the East Indies and along the hot shores of Hindustan.\nThe name of Capt. Howel Davis stands high among his fellows. He was the Ulysses of pirates, the beloved not only of Mercury, but of Minerva.\nHe it was who hoodwinked the captain of a French ship of double the size and strength of his own, and fairly cheated him into the surrender of his craft without the firing of a single pistol or the striking of a single blow; he it was who sailed boldly into the port of Gambia, on the coast of Guinea, and under the guns of the castle, proclaiming himself as a merchant trading for slaves.\nThe cheat was kept up until the fruit of mischief was ripe for the picking; then, when the governor and the guards of the castle were lulled into entire security, and when Davis's band was scattered about wherever each man could do the most good, it was out pistol, up cutlass, and death if a finger moved. They tied the soldiers back to back, and the governor to his own armchair, and then rifled wherever it pleased them. After that they sailed away, and though they had not made the fortune they had hoped to glean, it was a good snug round sum that they shared among them.\nTheir courage growing high with success, they determined to attempt the island of Del Principe\u2014a prosperous Portuguese settlement on the coast. The plan for taking the place was cleverly laid, and would have succeeded, only that a Portuguese negro among the pirate crew turned traitor and carried the news ashore to the governor of the fort. Accordingly, the next day, when Captain Davis came ashore, he found there a good strong guard drawn up as though to honor his coming. But after he and those with him were fairly out of their boat, and well away from the water side, there was a sudden rattle of musketry, a cloud of smoke, and a dull groan or two. Only one man ran out from under that pungent cloud, jumped into the boat, and rowed away; and when it lifted, there lay Captain Davis and his companions all of a heap, like a pile of old clothes.\nCapt. Bartholomew Roberts was the particular and especial pupil of Davis, and when that worthy met his death so suddenly and so unexpectedly in the unfortunate manner above narrated, he was chosen unanimously as the captain of the fleet, and he was a worthy pupil of a worthy master. Many were the poor fluttering merchant ducks that this sea hawk swooped upon and struck; and cleanly and cleverly were they plucked before his savage clutch loosened its hold upon them.\n\"He made a gallant figure,\" says the old narrator, \"being dressed in a rich crimson waistcoat and breeches and red feather in his hat, a gold chain around his neck, with a diamond cross hanging to it, a sword in his hand, and two pair of pistols hanging at the end of a silk sling flung over his shoulders according to the fashion of the pyrates.\" Thus he appeared in the last engagement which he fought\u2014that with the Swallow\u2014a royal sloop of war. A gallant fight they made of it, those bulldog pirates, for, finding themselves caught in a trap betwixt the man-of-war and the shore, they determined to bear down upon the king's vessel, fire a slapping broadside into her, and then try to get away, trusting to luck in the doing, and hoping that their enemy might be crippled by their fire.\nCaptain Roberts himself was the first to fall at the return fire of the Swallow; a grapeshot struck him in the neck, and he fell forward across the gun near to which he was standing at the time. A certain fellow named Stevenson, who was at the helm, saw him fall, and thought he was wounded. At the lifting of the arm the body rolled over upon the deck, and the man saw that the captain was dead. \"Whereupon,\" says the old history, \"he\" [Stevenson] \"gushed into tears, and wished that the next shot might be his portion.\" After their captain's death the pirate crew had no stomach for more fighting; the \"Black Roger\" was struck, and one and all surrendered to justice and the gallows.\nSuch is a brief and bald account of the most famous of these pirates. But they are only a few of a long list of notables, such as Captain Martel, Capt. Charles Vane (who led the gallant Colonel Rhett, of South Carolina, such a wild-goose chase in and out among the sluggish creeks and inlets along the coast), Capt. John Rackam, and Captain Anstis, Captain Worley, and Evans, and Philips, and others\u2014a score or more of wild fellows whose very names made ship captains tremble in their shoes in those good old times.\nAnd such is that black chapter of history of the past\u2014an evil chapter, lurid with cruelty and suffering, stained with blood and smoke. Yet it is a written chapter, and it must be read. He who chooses may read betwixt the lines of history this great truth: Evil itself is an instrument toward the shaping of good. Therefore the history of evil as well as the history of good should be read, considered, and digested.\nChapter II. THE GHOST OF CAPTAIN BRAND\nIT is not so easy to tell why discredit should be cast upon a man because of something that his grandfather may have done amiss, but the world, which is never overnice in its discrimination as to where to lay the blame, is often pleased to make the innocent suffer in the place of the guilty.\nBarnaby True was a good, honest, biddable lad, as boys go, but yet he was not ever allowed altogether to forget that his grandfather had been that very famous pirate, Capt. William Brand, who, after so many marvelous adventures (if one may believe the catchpenny stories and ballads that were written about him), was murdered in Jamaica by Capt. John Malyoe, the commander of his own consort, the Adventure galley.\nIt has never been denied, that ever I heard, that up to the time of Captain Brand's being commissioned against the South Sea pirates he had always been esteemed as honest, reputable a sea captain as could be.\nWhen he started out upon that adventure it was with a ship, the Royal Sovereign, fitted out by some of the most decent merchants of New York. The governor himself had subscribed to the adventure, and had himself signed Captain Brand's commission. So, if the unfortunate man went astray, he must have had great temptation to do so, many others behaving no better when the opportunity offered in those far-away seas where so many rich purchases might very easily be taken and no one the wiser.\nTo be sure, those stories and ballads made our captain to be a most wicked, profane wretch; and if he were, why, God knows he suffered and paid for it, for he laid his bones in Jamaica, and never saw his home or his wife and daughter again after he had sailed away on the Royal Sovereign on that long misfortunate voyage, leaving them in New York to the care of strangers.\nAt the time when he met his fate in Port Royal Harbor he had obtained two vessels under his command\u2014the Royal Sovereign, which was the boat fitted out for him in New York, and the Adventure galley, which he was said to have taken somewhere in the South Seas. With these he lay in those waters of Jamaica for over a month after his return from the coasts of Africa, waiting for news from home, which, when it came, was of the very blackest; for the colonial authorities were at that time stirred up very hot against him to take him and hang him for a pirate, so as to clear their own skirts for having to do with such a fellow. So maybe it seemed better to our captain to hide his ill-gotten treasure there in those far-away parts, and afterward to try and bargain with it for his life when he should reach New York, rather than to sail straight for the Americas with what he had earned by his piracies, and so risk losing life and money both.\nHowever that might be, the story was that Captain Brand and his gunner, and Captain Malyoe of the Adventure and the sailing master of the Adventure all went ashore together with a chest of money (no one of them choosing to trust the other three in so nice an affair), and buried the treasure somewhere on the beach of Port Royal Harbor. The story then has it that they fell a-quarreling about a future division or the money, and that, as a wind-up to the affair, Captain Malyoe shot Captain Brand through the head, while the sailing master of the Adventure served the gunner of the Royal Sovereign after the same fashion through the body, and that the murderers then went away, leaving the two stretched out in their own blood on the sand in the staring sun, with no one to know where the money was hid but they two who had served their comrades so.\nIt is a mighty great pity that anyone should have a grandfather who ended his days in such a sort as this, but it was no fault of Barnaby True's, nor could he have done anything to prevent it, seeing that he was not even born into the world at the time that his grandfather turned pirate, and was only one year old when he so met his tragical end. Nevertheless, the boys with whom he went to school never tired of calling him \"Pirate,\" and would sometimes sing for his benefit that famous catchpenny song beginning thus:\nOh, my name was Captain Brand, A-sailing, And a-sailing; Oh, my name was Captain Brand, A-sailing free. Oh, my name was Captain Brand, And I sinned by sea and land, For I broke God's just command, A-sailing free.\n'Twas a vile thing to sing at the grandson of so misfortunate a man, and oftentimes little Barnaby True would double up his fists and would fight his tormentors at great odds, and would sometimes go back home with a bloody nose to have his poor mother cry over him and grieve for him.\nNot that his days were all of teasing and torment, neither; for if his comrades did treat him so, why, then, there were other times when he and they were as great friends as could be, and would go in swimming together where there was a bit of sandy strand along the East River above Fort George, and that in the most amicable fashion. Or, maybe the very next day after he had fought so with his fellows, he would go a-rambling with them up the Bowerie Road, perhaps to help them steal cherries from some old Dutch farmer, forgetting in such adventure what a thief his own grandfather had been.\nWell, when Barnaby True was between sixteen and seventeen years old he was taken into employment in the countinghouse of Mr. Roger Hartright, the well-known West India merchant, and Barnaby's own stepfather.\nIt was the kindness of this good man that not only found a place for Barnaby in the countinghouse, but advanced him so fast that against our hero was twenty-one years old he had made four voyages as supercargo to the West Indies in Mr. Hartright's ship, the Belle Helen, and soon after he was twenty-one undertook a fifth. Nor was it in any such subordinate position as mere supercargo that he acted, but rather as the confidential agent of Mr. Hartright, who, having no children of his own, was very jealous to advance our hero into a position of trust and responsibility in the countinghouse, as though he were indeed a son, so that even the captain of the ship had scarcely more consideration aboard than he, young as he was in years.\nAs for the agents and correspondents of Mr. Hartright throughout these parts, they also, knowing how the good man had adopted his interests, were very polite and obliging to Master Barnaby\u2014especially, be it mentioned, Mr. Ambrose Greenfield, of Kingston, Jamaica, who, upon the occasions of his visits to those parts, did all that he could to make Barnaby's stay in that town agreeable and pleasant to him.\nSo much for the history of our hero to the time of the beginning of this story, without which you shall hardly be able to understand the purport of those most extraordinary adventures that befell him shortly after he came of age, nor the logic of their consequence after they had occurred.\nFor it was during his fifth voyage to the West Indies that the first of those extraordinary adventures happened of which I shall have presently to tell.\nAt that time he had been in Kingston for the best part of four weeks, lodging at the house of a very decent, respectable widow, by name Mrs. Anne Bolles, who, with three pleasant and agreeable daughters, kept a very clean and well-served lodging house in the outskirts of the town.\nOne morning, as our hero sat sipping his coffee, clad only in loose cotton drawers, a shirt, and a jacket, and with slippers upon his feet, as is the custom in that country, where everyone endeavors to keep as cool as may be while he sat thus sipping his coffee Miss Eliza, the youngest of the three daughters, came and gave him a note, which, she said, a stranger had just handed in at the door, going away again without waiting for a reply. You may judge of Barnaby's surprise when he opened the note and read as follows:\nMR. BARNABY TRUE.\nSIR,\u2014Though you don't know me, I know you, and I tell you this: if you will be at Pratt's Ordinary on Harbor Street on Friday next at eight o'clock of the evening, and will accompany the man who shall say to you, \"The Royal Sovereign is come in,\" you shall learn something the most to your advantage that ever befell you. Sir, keep this note, and show it to him who shall address these words to you, so to certify that you are the man he seeks.\nSuch was the wording of the note, which was without address, and without any superscription whatever.\nThe first emotion that stirred Barnaby was one of extreme and profound amazement. Then the thought came into his mind that some witty fellow, of whom he knew a good many in that town\u2014and wild, waggish pranks they were was attempting to play off some smart jest upon him. But all that Miss Eliza could tell him when he questioned her concerning the messenger was that the bearer of the note was a tall, stout man, with a red neckerchief around his neck and copper buckles to his shoes, and that he had the appearance of a sailorman, having a great big queue hanging down his back. But, Lord! what was such a description as that in a busy seaport town, full of scores of men to fit such a likeness? Accordingly, our hero put away the note into his wallet, determining to show it to his good friend Mr. Greenfield that evening, and to ask his advice upon it. So he did show it, and that gentleman's opinion was the same as his\u2014that some wag was minded to play off a hoax upon him, and that the matter of the letter was all nothing but smoke.\nNevertheless, though Barnaby was thus confirmed in his opinion as to the nature of the communication he had received, he yet determined in his own mind that he would see the business through to the end, and would be at Pratt's Ordinary, as the note demanded, upon the day and at the time specified therein.\nPratt's Ordinary was at that time a very fine and well-known place of its sort, with good tobacco and the best rum that ever I tasted, and had a garden behind it that, sloping down to the harbor front, was planted pretty thick with palms and ferns grouped into clusters with flowers and plants. Here were a number of little tables, some in little grottoes, like our Vauxhall in New York, and with red and blue and white paper lanterns hung among the foliage, whither gentlemen and ladies used sometimes to go of an evening to sit and drink lime juice and sugar and water (and sometimes a taste of something stronger), and to look out across the water at the shipping in the cool of the night.\nThither, accordingly, our hero went, a little before the time appointed in the note, and passing directly through the Ordinary and the garden beyond, chose a table at the lower end of the garden and close to the water's edge, where he would not be easily seen by anyone coming into the place. Then, ordering some rum and water and a pipe of tobacco, he composed himself to watch for the appearance of those witty fellows whom he suspected would presently come thither to see the end of their prank and to enjoy his confusion.\nThe spot was pleasant enough; for the land breeze, blowing strong and full, set the leaves of the palm tree above his head to rattling and clattering continually against the sky, where, the moon then being about full, they shone every now and then like blades of steel. The waves also were splashing up against the little landing place at the foot of the garden, sounding very cool in the night, and sparkling all over the harbor where the moon caught the edges of the water. A great many vessels were lying at anchor in their ridings, with the dark, prodigious form of a man-of-war looming up above them in the moonlight.\nThere our hero sat for the best part of an hour, smoking his pipe of tobacco and sipping his grog, and seeing not so much as a single thing that might concern the note he had received.\nIt was not far from half an hour after the time appointed in the note, when a rowboat came suddenly out of the night and pulled up to the landing place at the foot of the garden above mentioned, and three or four men came ashore in the darkness. Without saying a word among themselves they chose a near-by table and, sitting down, ordered rum and water, and began drinking their grog in silence. They might have sat there about five minutes, when, by and by, Barnaby True became aware that they were observing him very curiously; and then almost immediately one, who was plainly the leader of the party, called out to him:\n\"How now, messmate! Won't you come and drink a dram of rum with us?\"\n\"Why, no,\" says Barnaby, answering very civilly; \"I have drunk enough already, and more would only heat my blood.\"\n\"All the same,\" quoth the stranger, \"I think you will come and drink with us; for, unless I am mistook, you are Mr. Barnaby True, and I am come here to tell you that the Royal Sovereign is come in.\"\nNow I may honestly say that Barnaby True was never more struck aback in all his life than he was at hearing these words uttered in so unexpected a manner. He had been looking to hear them under such different circumstances that, now that his ears heard them addressed to him, and that so seriously, by a perfect stranger, who, with others, had thus mysteriously come ashore out of the darkness, he could scarce believe that his ears heard aright. His heart suddenly began beating at a tremendous rate, and had he been an older and wiser man, I do believe he would have declined the adventure, instead of leaping blindly, as he did, into that of which he could see neither the beginning nor the ending. But being barely one-and-twenty years of age, and having an adventurous disposition that would have carried him into almost anything that possessed a smack of uncertainty or danger about it, he contrived to say, in a pretty easy tone (though God knows how it was put on for the occasion):\n\"Well, then, if that be so, and if the Royal Sovereign is indeed come in, why, I'll join you, since you are so kind as to ask me.\" And therewith he went across to the other table, carrying his pipe with him, and sat down and began smoking, with all the appearance of ease he could assume upon the occasion.\n\"Well, Mr. Barnaby True,\" said the man who had before addressed him, so soon as Barnaby had settled himself, speaking in a low tone of voice, so there would be no danger of any others hearing the words\u2014\"Well, Mr. Barnaby True\u2014for I shall call you by your name, to show you that though I know you, you don't know me I am glad to see that you are man enough to enter thus into an affair, though you can't see to the bottom of it. For it shows me that you are a man of mettle, and are deserving of the fortune that is to befall you to-night. Nevertheless, first of all, I am bid to say that you must show me a piece of paper that you have about you before we go a step farther.\"\n\"Very well,\" said Barnaby; \"I have it here safe and sound, and see it you shall.\" And thereupon and without more ado he fetched out his wallet, opened it, and handed his interlocutor the mysterious note he had received the day or two before. Whereupon the other, drawing to him the candle, burning there for the convenience of those who would smoke tobacco, began immediately reading it.\nThis gave Barnaby True a moment or two to look at him. He was a tall, stout man, with a red handkerchief tied around his neck, and with copper buckles on his shoes, so that Barnaby True could not but wonder whether he was not the very same man who had given the note to Miss Eliza Bolles at the door of his lodging house.\n\"'Tis all right and straight as it should be,\" the other said, after he had so glanced his eyes over the note. \"And now that the paper is read\" (suiting his action to his words), \"I'll just burn it, for safety's sake.\"\nAnd so he did, twisting it up and setting it to the flame of the candle.\n\"And now,\" he said, continuing his address, \"I'll tell you what I am here for. I was sent to ask you if you're man enough to take your life in your own hands and to go with me in that boat down there? Say 'Yes,' and we'll start away without wasting more time, for the devil is ashore here at Jamaica\u2014though you don't know what that means\u2014and if he gets ahead of us, why, then we may whistle for what we are after. Say 'No,' and I go away again, and I promise you you shall never be troubled again in this sort. So now speak up plain, young gentleman, and tell us what is your mind in this business, and whether you will adventure any farther or not.\"\nIf our hero hesitated it was not for long. I cannot say that his courage did not waver for a moment; but if it did, it was, I say, not for long, and when he spoke up it was with a voice as steady as could be.\n\"To be sure I'm man enough to go with you,\" he said; \"and if you mean me any harm I can look out for myself; and if I can't, why, here is something can look out for me,\" and therewith he lifted up the flap of his coat pocket and showed the butt of a pistol he had fetched with him when he had set out from his lodging house that evening.\nAt this the other burst out a-laughing. \"Come,\" says he, \"you are indeed of right mettle, and I like your spirit. All the same, no one in all the world means you less ill than I, and so, if you have to use that barker, 'twill not be upon us who are your friends, but only upon one who is more wicked than the devil himself. So come, and let us get away.\"",

        "title": "Iceberg Ink: News: Disney Buys Lucasfilm, New Star Wars Movies On The Way - Our Thoughts",
        "raw_content": "News: Disney Buys Lucasfilm, New Star Wars Movies On The Way - Our Thoughts\nI needed a day to collect my brain from the goo puddle on the floor after hearing the news that Disney bought Lucasfilm for $4.05 Billion, and that they were going to be making more movies starting with Episode VII in 2015. Beyond that, after the announcement (which kind of broke the internet for a while) little bits of extra news have trickled out about what this means ect.\nSo here we are, a day later and we are a little better informed and I needed to get my thoughts out about this since it is a well-known fact that I am and always will be a STAR WARS fan.\nChris and I both have opinions on this so I've separated them.\nScott's Thoughts:\nSo, Lucas apparently retains the rights to the Original Trilogy (OT) and the Prequel Trilogy (PT), but otherwise he has sold the rest off to the House Of Mouse and producer Kathleen Kennedy is taking the reigns of the Disney-fied Lucasfilm. Now Kennedy\u2019s resume as a producer since 1981 is basically a list of some of the greatest and most amazingly well-received films in the latter half of the 20th century. She has worked repeatedly with Steven Spielberg, and some of her biggest hits include RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, BACK TO THE FUTURE, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT, CAPE FEAR, ALIVE, TWISTER, and PERSEPOLIS. Putting her in charge of the entirety of the STAR WARS universe is probably the biggest and best step that the franchise has seen since EMPIRE was made. She just sees that good films get made. Lucas\u2019 role has become that of \u201ccreative consultant\u201d\u2026which I think we all know is a nice title and will mean he has a say\u2026but in the end the final decisions will be made by Kennedy and the House Of Mouse. This means George Lucas, a man much maligned (and some would argue accurately) for his poorly written Prequels and moderately standard Direction, has his fingers pretty much out of the pie. Regardless of what he agrees or disagrees with, Disney now has the clout to say \u201cWell, that\u2019s great George, but we\u2019re going to do this anyways.\u201d And to me that\u2019s music. I maintain that even though I like large sections of the prequels, they are still a narrative mess with lots of wooden dialogue and a poorly crafted, unbelievable love story. They could have been so much better had they been written by someone with the chops, and they could definitely have been directed with more verve. But at the end of the day they were technically Indie films, and it was GL\u2019s call. So we are left with an adored OT, and a rather beleaguered PT.\nBut what light is this? On the horizon? If you had of told me a week ago that GL would ever let the keys to the STAR WARS universe go, and that it would be tabled that a new set of films were being created\u2026I\u2019d have called you nuts and called the folk in white lab coats. Probably the biggest bomb dropped on the internet in years, this news was totally unexpected, but more often than not I see people cautiously embracing the notion that Disney will be seeing more STAR WARS made. Why? Well because a lot of people\u2019s problems (probably most of them) with the prequels began and ended with GL. The Expanded Universe (books, comics, TV shows) is peppered with other writers and creative entities and they have all been far better received by fans than those GL-written prequels ever could have been. Couple this with the House Of Mouse\u2019s most recent acquisitions. They bought Henson Co. and the result was Jason Segal\u2019s excellent MUPPET film, and then they hit the mother load. They bought Marvel comics, they united Marvel film continuities, and they allowed Fanboy/Girl favourite Joss Whedon to shepherd THE AVENGERS to the big screen. I should not have to tell you how that went. All this info leads me to believe that not only are Disney\u2019s hands the right ones to have the franchise, but that this might lead to a Golden Age of STAR WARS with a set of films that might battle their way back from what was lost with the prequels.\nIt feels really weird to be speculating about new STAR WARS movies. At the ripe old age of 35, I saw EMPIRE and JEDI in the theatre with my parents, and in the late 90\u2019s I speculated with other STAR WARS nerds about the new prequels that were coming in 1999, and here I am speculating again about a new set of films on the horizon with Episode VII now on the table for 2015. So what follows are some guesses as to what I think will happen with these films.\nFirstly, the latest is that in the summertime GL met with both Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill for lunch. At that lunch he dropped the bomb that the plan was on the table to make more films starting with Episode VII. The clear indication there that this is a continuing story and would take place post Episode VI (RETURN OF THE JEDI). Apparently both Hamill and Fisher were like \u201cWhat?! Are you nuts?\u201d That is an apt reaction to such news.\nIt\u2019s unthinkable\u2026at least at first.\nI think once the shock wore off and it settled in, both Fisher and Hamill would be amenable to reprising their roles. Interestingly enough the timing works on a story level. Like the time distance between the prequels and the originals, the next film could pick the story 30+ years later with Luke, Leia (and possibly Han depending on Ford who swore he was done with Solo\u2026but he\u2019s not doing a lot these days) in generational roles as elderly heralds of a new generation to take hold of their destinies in a galaxy far, far away. In the EU (Expanded Universe) Luke eventually reinstates the Jedi Order, and as he ages becomes a grand master of a whole new generation of Jedi to protect the galaxy.\nWould new films be beholden to the EU books and such? Almost certainly not. No more than they would be able to shoot films that took place directly after JEDI. So no Thrawn Trilogy, and probably not even the Yuuzan Vong fron the NJO series. However, I think the chances are high that a new timeline could be established with characters names and personalities in slightly different or new situations. For example, Mara Jade will almost certainly be involved, and I think the Solo kids would be still be Jacen, Jaina, and Anakin and Luke\u2019s son would still be Ben\u2026.but I doubt that any of them would be carbon copies of their EU counterparts and the stories they were involved in. I think allowing them to be organically their own entities on screen would honour the EU fans, while blazing its own trail. At any rate, involving Luke and Leia indicates to me that this will HAVE to take place 30+ years in the future and that in turn means we need younger protagonists to be in the story with the older actors taking on Alec Guiness-like roles. I\u2019m more than okay with this and I would welcome actors that I revered as a youth back on the big screen as characters that made them famous. The added sweetness being that if anyone has any issues with GL himself, he\u2019s not really involved enough to cause a problem any longer. I even think that Harrison Ford would reconsider his longstanding \u201cI\u2019m done with Han Solo and Star Wars\u201d Stance with no GL involved, but that might just be speculation or wishful thinking on my part. If Harrison Ford agreed to play an older Han Solo I think Star Wars fandom would crap their pants.\nIt does seem that in the current pop culture waters that appealing to teens is a goal. HARRY POTTER, TWILIGHT, HUNGER GAMES ect. prove that you need to pay attention to that demographic over others. That\u2019s where the money is to be made and I think that the older generation would come for Luke and Leia Ect., but would stay with the teens to see a whole new generation of teens growing up in a galaxy far, far away and dealing with new problems and universe-threatening monsters. It\u2019s actually a really big win-win if you look at it like that and a way to please all three of the generations who are STAR WARS fans.\nBasically my feelings come down to this. I like STAR WARS, and more STAR WARS is a good thing. Now, had this announcement come as \u201cLucasfilm and GL were planning more films\u201d I don\u2019t think I would be remotely excited. I\u2019d be interested, but my interest would be hampered by my knowing he\u2019s not the right creative hands to handle his universe. That the company that gave me MUPPETS and AVENGERS are in charge now and a producer who\u2019s films I explicitly enjoy and who\u2019s judgment I trust is leading Lucasfilm now. Well that takes what could have been very \u201cmeh\u201d news, coloured it with vibrant excitement and made me 20 years old again and speculating on the internet with friends and fellow fans about just what Episode VII and beyond will bring us.\nChris\u2019 Thoughts:\nI think its safe to say that I haven't agreed with (m)any of George Lucas's desicions over the last 15 years or so. Pick a category at random, creatively, business-wise, whatever you can come up with, I'd have to pretty much universally pan them all.\nThe sole exception would be his (or Lucasfilm's) handling of the Expanded Star Wars Universe.\nStar Wars has a fantastic expanded universe. And most importantly it all relates causually to each other between the various mediums. Which means if something happens in the comic books or television shows or prose novels, best efforts will be made to acknowledge that event or characterization throughout their entire lineup.\nIts not perfect. There are some inconsistencies, but from my experiences they do the best they can with the tools they've got.\nAdding new Star Wars movies to the mix, ones not shepherded by Lucas et al, introduces the very real possibility that these new ventures will touch on parts of established continuity but will not feel beholden to it.\nFair enough, your property, your choice.\nBesides, if they do go ahead and try to include some of the original cast into these new movies there's no way they can reconcile the age differences of their lead actors with the post-ROTJ stories.\nThus the scourge of the modern comic book fan raises its head, what is canon, what is not. If something in the nu movies contravenes what's been previously established as 'in continuity' who wins?\n(My guess is the multimillion dollar blockbuster film is the final word)\nTo be truthful the prequels did a lot to wipe the taste of nostalgia from my mouth when it comes to the Star Wars franchise. I still have a warm place in my heart whenever I see the original films, the ones that weren't unnecessarily re-edited to have Greedo shoot first.\nBut for the rest of it I'm content to drop in and out where I like, a little animated Clone Wars here, a Zahn novel there and a comic or two whenever it suits my fancy. I'll gladly line up to see new Star Wars movies but I won't be frothing at the mouth anymore at the site of Jar Jar Binks, or hearing the incredibly clunky dialogue or Lucas's refusal release the movies in the manner I'd most like to see them.\nSo kudos to Disney, I wish them the best of luck with their purchase. I have my fingers crossed that they'll be able to recapture some of the magic of the original trilogy, but I certainly don't think they'll do anything to damage the franchise.\nStar Wars used to belong to just George Lucas. But as it grew and other creators got to peek into the toy box it was always very apparent that those toys were property of Georgie-Boy. I think its time that someone else got to play with the action figures for awhile and see what they can come up with. I think we'll all be pleasantly surprised.\nLabels: Disney, episode 7, George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, Lucasfilm, Star Wars\nI wonder if DisneyCorp has broken ground on a Starwars theme park yet? meantime, I'm too busy changing up the words to 90s Disney princess movie songs to Starwarsify them.\nbut seriously, my biggest fear is that future Star Wars movies will be seen as even more of a commodity, and the quality will plummet, a la the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.",

        "raw_content": "Avocado oil has the highest smoking point. (Photo by Muffet)\nIf you've wondered which oils and fats are the best choices for cooking your meals, this post is for you.\nThe first question we need to ask is what makes an oil good or bad for cooking? Putting the cholesterol issue aside for a moment, we can say that perhaps the most important thing is how well the oil tolerates heat. We are using it for cooking, after all.\nTwo factors that affect heat tolerance are smoking point and oxidation. Smoking point is, as you might have guessed, the temperature at which the oil begins to smoke. It's also the point the oil starts to break down chemically. This is something you generally want to avoid, so it's usually recommended that you don't heat the oil to its smoking point. This, of course, rules out using oils with a low smoking point for cooking at high temperatures.\nThe second factor, oxidation, is related to smoking point in the sense that both are affected by temperature. However, oxidation also happens at lower temperatures than are needed for the oil to start smoking. Oxidation is problematic because the lipid peroxidation end-products (ALEs) it creates can wreak havoc inside the body. These products have been shown to accumulate with aging and cause problems such as liver spots on the skin.\nSo which oils are most susceptible to oxidation? If you've read this blog before then you already know the answer: polyunsaturated fats. In fact, polyunsaturated fatty acids (or PUFAs) tolerate heat very poorly. Not only do they oxidize when you heat them on a frying pan, they do so inside the body as well. On the other hand, monounsaturated fats are much more resistant to oxidation than polyunsaturated fats. Saturated fats are the most resistant.\nThis gives us a good rule of thumb when looking for fats to use in cooking: avoid oils high in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Because of their potential to undergo lipid peroxidation inside the body, I tend to restrict their consumption altogether, but even if you are a fan of vegetable oils and omega-3, using them for cooking is not a very good idea.\nThe table above shows the relative percentages of saturated (SA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in various cooking oils and fats (data from US and Finnish food databases). They are in a decreasing order of PUFA content, meaning that the oils moist suitable for cooking are on the left and the least suitable oils are on the right.\nAs you can see, coconut oil has the highest SA content and the lowest PUFA content of all oils, making it very resistant to oxidation. Ghee and butter also have very little PUFA and lots of saturated fat. Based on this, butter is actually one of the best choices for cooking, although the high AGE content of butter and its tendency to brown quickly suggest to me that perhaps ghee is a better option. The reason might be that butter also contains some protein and a small amount of carbohydrate.\nPalm oil and lard are somewhat lower in saturated fat than the first three, but since their MUFA content is quite high, they still make good choices for cooking. The rest to the right of these five are less than optimal. Corn oil, sesame oil, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, and canola oil are all high in polyunsaturates, making them prone to lipid peroxidation. And unless you buy them cold-pressed, they will have been heated during refining anyway, so some oxidation has probably happened before you even use them.\nWhat about olive oil then? Even though everyone seems to love olive oil in general, there's something of a debate going on over whether it should be used for cooking purposes. My opinion is that, like the graph suggests, it's not the worst choice but it's not the best either. The smoking point of extra virgin olive oil seems to vary from 160 to 190 \u00b0C, depending on the free fatty acid content. Virgin olive oil, however, has some properties that make it more heat-tolerant than most other oils (link).\nIn general, the less refined the oil, the lower the smoke point. Unrefined oils high in PUFAs have the lowest smoking points (link), but high saturated fatty acid content does not necessarily guarantee a high smoking point. Coconut oil, for example, has a fairly low smoking point (177 \u00b0C, about the same as butter and lard) compared to peanut oil (227 \u00b0C). Refined avocado oil, which is mostly monounsaturated fat, appears to have one of the highest smoking points at 255-270 \u00b0C (link). Ghee is another oil with a very high smoking point (252 \u00b0C).\nSo which oils should you use for cooking? For saut\u00e9ing and cooking at light to medium temperatures, my choice would be the ones on the left of the graph: coconut oil, ghee, butter, palm oil, and lard. If you stay below 170 \u00b0C, you're in pretty safe waters in terms of oxidation regardless of which one of them you choose. Virgin olive oil seems like a viable choice, too; just make sure the particular olive oil you're using it doesn't start smoking.\nFor searing, browning and other methods of cooking requiring higher temperatures, ghee and avocado oil seem like the best choices. When it comes to resistance to oxidation, ghee might take the cake, but avocado oil appears to have the highest smoking point of all oils, even though it does have 13.5% PUFAs. Still, keep in mind that when cooking at very high temperatures, some advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are bound to be generated.\nKismet October 13, 2009 at 5:24 PM\nNo comment about sat. fat? Your paleo bias is showing :P\nI think you should do a post on sat. fat if you haven't in the past (I know others have).\nI love your recent articles, though.\nWhat kind of comment are you looking for specifically -- that saturated fats increase cholesterol? I discussed this a while ago, and linked to that post in the beginning of this one. If that's what you're referring to, based on what I've read, I don't see high cholesterol levels as a bad thing (as long as HDL/LDL ratio is good), and not all saturated fat increases cholesterol. I've actually done several posts on saturated fats, but the cholesterol issue has been sort of done to death in other blogs (wholehealthsource and hyperlipid come to mind), probably in more depth than I could do.\nI try to be un-biased, but as I've openly stated before, I do eat a diet that is mainly paleolithic. I don't hide it. That said, I very much disapprove of the naturalistic fallacy, and am willing to change my diet into any direction that suggests longevity benefits (except for CR, which at least for the moment has too many disadvantages for my taste).\nWhether or not high-fat or high-carb is the way to is subject to debate, but if one does follow a high-fat like I do, then saturated fats seem like a much healthier choice than polyunsaturated fats. I guess you could argue that MUFAs > SAs > PUFAs, but what is the evidence for such a claim?\nMUFA >SFA> PUFA\ni guess you could argue for ratios similar to what would be maintained in tissue-- with the exception that you want to keep polys low because an increase in dietary polys increases polys in tissues.\nOh, I almost thought you did post about sat. fat. I was just too lazy to check.\nIf one is to accept a linear relationship between LDL and cardiovascular or all-cause mortality, one could argue that MUFA > Sat.\nHmm, I need to review the sat. fat-cholesterol-mortality association for myself.\nI'm not sure where I stand on the SFA issue. Please post more on it. Love your blog and the way you tackle issues.\nhttp://www.skepdic.com/refuge/bunk28.html\nrwac February 20, 2010 at 7:25 AM\nNo mention of High Oleic Sunflower oil ? It has <10% of PUFA.\nI need to get a more accurate value though.\nThe label claims\n1g PUFA,\n12g MUFA,\n1g SFA\nout of 14g in a serving.\n@rwac,\nI didn't know sunflower oil came in a high oleic version. Not sure I've ever seen it on sale here, but it does look like it could be used for cooking. Thanks for the comment!\nHow about Macadamia nut oil?\nIt's mostly made up of MUFA's, contains less PUFA's than olive oil, has a better ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 than olive oil and has a very respectable smoke point of 210\u00b0C\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macadamia_oil\nLinda Prout December 30, 2010 at 7:24 PM\nI have been ruminating on this question myself for quite a while. A point of confusion for me is if PUFA's are least desirable for cooking and break down easiest, (safflower being the most unsaturated, or close) why is safflower listed as having one of the highest smoke points of all lipids? This smoke point value is according to your link to cookingforengineers and also on wikipedia/cooking oils.\n@Linda Prout,\nThere are two kinds of safflower oil, one high in PUFAs and one high in MUFAs. Maybe the high smoke point is referring to the latter? Also, the smoke points don't always seem to go hand in hand with the saturation level of the oils. Refined oils have much higher smoke points (unrefined safflower oil has a very low smoke point). But I don't know which chemical changes are responsible for the dramatic change in safflower oil's smoke point during refining. Any chemists here that might know the answer?\nWhat do you think about Chris Masterjohn's different take ont butter's AGEs' content?\nHere's the article: http://blog.cholesterol-and-health.com/2010/10/is-butter-high-in-ages.html?showComment=1328637072957#c2476885799859857150\nI think he's right on the money.\nWould love to hear your thoughts on macadamia nut oil!\n85% MUFAs, high smoke point - seems pretty okay to me. I'd probably use it myself in some cooking if it wasn't so damn expensive here. If you can get it for a reasonable price, I'd say go for it.\nSandalsay April 10, 2013 at 6:25 PM\nI happen to be one of those people who believe in moderation of all things, i.e.. SFA, carbs, sugar, etc. I use both butter and olive oil in my cooking, although the whole high heat/smoking point issue is new to me. It makes some sense but I haven't read the literature myself. However, I am a nurse practitioner and have to comment about your statement about cholesterol ratio and SFA. Keep in mind that SFA still have implications in heart disease and the key is to limit all fat, overall, in your diet (not eliminate them, however). The body does need some fat and, people who are trying to diet/lose weight, actually lose more weight when consuming some unsaturated fat in their diet (in addition to the saturated fats that they get in their foods). However, your statement about cholesterol is only true to a point. Ration of HDL/LDL is definitely a consideration, but if your total cholesterol is too high, the ratio becomes less important. There are also many other components to your lipid profile that play a role in overall health, triglycerides being one of these (which are also increased with alcohol consumption). So, total cholesterol level still needs to be considered despite your ration of good to bad cholesterol.\nI believe that body mass index is a better indicator of health, as well as whether you are exercising 4+ days/week regardless of what your BMI is. I do not believe in these low carb diets. Our bodies are designed to need carbohydrates. However, the refined and genetically modified ones are consumed in excess and are definitely a contributor to weight gain and obesity in our culture. Also, most people are consuming far too much protein than their bodies require. If you follow that old food pyramid we all learned about in elementary school, your probably doing a good job with your diet, being that you are limiting your saturated fats, limiting your refined/processed carbohydrate intake, and limiting your sugar intake. Keep in mind I am saying limit and not eliminate. Bottom line, if you are eating more calories than you burn off each day, you will gain weight, and any type of excess calories will eventually become stored fat in your body, even simple carbs. Obesity and over eating leads to high fluctuation of hormone levels, such as insulin, which reeks havoc on your system and leads to other problems like weight gain and Type II diabetes, among other things. Being obese puts you at higher risk of heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer. So, there is no simple formula to staying healthy. Again, one of the best diets to follow is that food pyramid from the ADA.\nAs a nurse practitioner, the only diet program I would recommend is Weight Watchers, which allows people to lose weight slowly and incorporates everything I mention here. Fad diets that allow you to lose more quickly, aren't healthy and will not teach you how to eat properly so you can keep the weight off. Portion control is VERY important and this is something that WW teaches my patients.\nAnother key to healthy living is consuming enough water. Almost every chemical reaction in our body requires H2O.\njohn del castillo May 4, 2013 at 10:43 PM\nCanola and raspeseed are both the same stuf, they contain erucid acid wich is DEADLY POISONOUS, DONT USE THEM, there are canola inductry money interest to not inform about to the consumers\ndont use Rapeseed oil neither Canola oil wich is the fake name of Rapeseed, Deadly Toxic for humans!!",

        "raw_content": "Health Sleep\nInsomnia And Nutrition\nInsomnia Movie\nWays To Cure Insomnia\nMany factors contribute to the installation of a serious sleep disorder such as chronic insomnia, there are physical as well as psychological issues that need to be taken into consideration for the proper treatment of this health problem. Chronic insomnia affects people of all ages, and research indicated alarmingly high numbers of people who suffer from it because of daily stress and depression. Among the physical triggers behind the affection we could count asthma, heart failure, Parkinson's disease or the restless legs syndrome, to mention just a few. Moreover, most people who suffer from painful health problems like arthritis are more prone to developing chronic insomnia.\nDespite the physical element behind the affection, stress, improper sleep-wake cycles, caffeine abuse and depression are among the most common elements that need to be tackled with in order to treat chronic insomnia. Once the underlying factor has been identified, a proper treatment or therapeutic scheme can be created to help people resume a good night's rest. Though the first and probably most easy to use type of treatment involves the administration of sleeping pills. What most people fail to take into consideration here is the fact that such chemical substances that induce sleep cannot be taken indefinitely, and without a real solution to the problem, chronic insomnia will keep bothering them after treatment cessation.\nIf stress is the main element that prevents you from having some quality sleep over night, you need to find ways of limiting the anxiety caused by daily work duties. Presently there are actually hundreds of available solutions to help one eliminate chronic insomnia by means of relaxation techniques. It is ideal to actually achieve a good state of mind during the day, which means the elimination of stress as it tries to take control over you. Though it may seem difficult at the beginning, stress management can be achieved by an increased self-awareness; the moment you feel very tense, try to empty your mind of all thoughts and breathe deeply several times.\nRelaxation is the great enemy of chronic insomnia; the moment you come in control of your thoughts, and you make silence inside of your mind, you'll be able to sleep like a baby. Once you get home from work, stop thinking about all the problems you had during the day; focus on family, friends and personal well being. Sport can be a great help in the attempt to stop chronic insomnia, physical exercises actually free both the mind and the body from the toxins resulting from stress or negative thinking. Relaxation music, breathing techniques, sport, aromatherapy are all great ways of fighting chronic insomnia regardless of its generating factors.",

        "raw_content": "Thoughts about the Schiavo Case\nI\u2019m getting tired of hearing about Terri Schiavo. Yet, I can\u2019t stop pondering an opinion about it. Damn media.\nUltimately, this is a personal issue between the family members which just happens to involve the courts. The President, Congress and Florida Gov. Bush have no right to get involved. While the media circus surrounding this case is despicable, what\u2019s even more appalling are the politicians and right-wingers using this situation for political gain.\nTo those who would argue that Terri Schiavo is an extraordinary case in need of rescue, I say that this sort of thing happens all the time. Families are always having to make decisions on whether to keep permanently hospitalized family members on life support. The only thing that makes this case extraordinary is the feud between Michael Schaivo and Terri\u2019s parents, who have led this contentious case through the court system for the last few years and created a media sensation. (And yes folks, it turns out that the root of this conflict is originally about money, namely a $1 mil malpractice settlement in 1993.)\nIt\u2019s been revealed that House Majority leader Tom DeLay joined his family in a decision to pull his own father off life support 17 years ago. And George Bush, when he was governor of Texas, signed a bill that allowed the very thing that he and the Republicans are railing against in the Schiavo case. A firm majority of Americans have opposed the government\u2019s intervention in this case, and the right-wingers\u2019 obvious hypocrisy is appalling.\nRegardless of one\u2019s personal opinions about whether Terri should be kept alive, the reality is that it is Michael\u2019s decision alone. Years of court decisions have established this. The public and the executive and legislative branches should stay out of it. You wouldn\u2019t want the government and the media invading your privacy if you had to make a similar decision.\nTomorrow, on March 2, Yahoo is giving all registered users a downloadable coupon for a free scoop of ice cream at Baskin Robbins, in honor of Yahoo\u2019s 10th anniversary.

        "raw_content": "There are roughly 79 million Millennials in the United States\u201425 percent of the population. The Millennials exceed the number of Baby Boomers (often their parents) by about 3 million. They have been through two recessions: one at the beginning of the millennium, another in the great recession caused by the mortgage crisis in 2009. These had a significant impact on the financial confidence and trust Millennials give corporations and organizations, which affects how they spend money.\nMillennials tend to see themselves as conscientious with their money, making educated purchases and shunning excess. If it isn\u2019t a good deal, they are not interested. 56% believe technology makes them more effective with their time. This group looks for speed, ease of purchase, and efficiency when choosing a shopping destination. Studies have shown that Millennials do not like brands that explicitly \u201csell\u201d to them; but brands that provide new, robust, relevant information will have more success and create repeat engagement. This generation grew up in a world of choice. They know they have options in every aspect of their lives.\nMore than any other generation, Millennials rely on each other, sharing opinions with friends to make more informed decisions. They are a very social group. 54% believe technology makes them closer with friends and family. In order to connect to them, organizations need to be social and interactive, not just information vending.\nHere are nine reasons Millennials may not be attending your concerts\nMost people under 40 do not remember a time before the internet. They grew up on social media; they are digital natives. The internet is not something they\u2019ve added to their life. It has always been there. For many, it is where a good portion of their life is led. Eighty percent have a profile on one of the major social networking sites. They connect with friends (many they have never met in person), from around the world, they check out restaurants reviews before dining out and likely they are checking out what the internet says about you before buying a ticket. If you are not online \u2013 and not just a website \u2013 people under 40 will assume you are not interested in their business.\nAre you inward focused?\nIf all your media messaging is spent attracting the people who already attend, then the ones who do not will never be interested. The younger generations have a reputation of being self-absorbed \u2013 half have posted a \u201cselfie\u201d online. They also passionately support causes that inspire them. Over 80% made a financial gift to an organization in 2012. Their biggest discouragement in giving is not knowing how the gift will be used to make a difference. They want to be part of a larger cause. If that\u2019s not you, they will get involved somewhere else.\nThey do not trust you\nTwo-thirds of people under 40 say \u201cyou can\u2019t be too careful\u201d when it comes to trusting people and are particularly leery of businesses. Only 19 percent felt people could be trusted generally speaking. They are cynical of those people and businesses they do not know. Younger generations will fact check your statistics and anecdotes. This is only made worse if your own facts do not match with other facts you or others have published about you. Inconsistencies scream of dishonesty.\nYou are not diverse enough\nMillennials are the most diverse generation in history and they look for experiences that do the same. More than 40% of adult Millennials are non-white, the highest share of any generation. About half the newborns born today are non-white. If your symphony is not reaching people outside of one ethnic or cultural group, your box office has not hope of reaching Millennials.\nYou are too institutional\nWhen it comes to institutions, Millennials run the other way. Political parties? Half describe themselves as independents. Marriage? Only 26% of Millennial adults have walked the aisle. Religion? Almost 3-in-10 are unaffiliated. That does not mean they cannot learn to see the benefits of those institutions, but unlike previous generations, they don\u2019t trust them inherently. Symphonies are perceived as part of the establishment, so you will need to break this mold before you can gain their trust.\nYou focused on Sales, rather than social connection\nThe younger generations are all about social connections as evidenced by the rapid growth of social media. But they don\u2019t want to see marketing. They prefer to engage with entities they resonate with, so if you are not engaging with them, they are not interested in you. Engagement is not telling them about your next concert; it is telling them why the concert will be interesting.\nMillennials are multi-taskers\nThis entire generation grew up with MTV, music videos and concerts that were filled with a variety of stimulus. Contemporary music concerts have lights and video, beyond the music. Many also include places to dance and become physically active while enjoying the concert. The idea of just sitting and listening to music is not something that interests the younger generation. If they want to just sit and listen to music, they\u2019ll play it on their iPod or mp3 player. Concerts need to be more engaging, more stimulating to reach the younger audience.\nAutomated and last minute decisions\nEveryone from McDonalds to Goldman Sachs have found that Millennials are not only willing, but more interested in automated transactions. They are comfortable purchasing tickets via websites, including on their smartphones. They are more willing to self-checkout the grocery store than their older counterparts. Many of their decisions are also last minute, wait to see what all their options are before actually making a purchase or committing to an evening\u2019s activity. You need to provide Millennials with a way to purchase online, and if you really want their business, a way to do so up to the very last minute.\nYou don\u2019t offer real community\nThey recognize the need to connect, but they\u2019ve chosen to do it through affinity groups and not institutions. Using social media, they have cultivated relationships with people next door and around the world who share their viewpoints and perspectives. They want to have the support of their friends. Seventy percent of Millennials are more excited about a decision they\u2019ve made when their friends agree, compared with 48% of non-Millennials. Connecting with people and products are an important part of their world.\nIf you want Millennials in your concert hall you need to start thinking and acting more like a Millennial.\nOpinion Social Media",

Furthermore, they exchanged ideas with senior members of those companies regarding Taiwanese-American cooperation on rising industries like AI, big data, cloud computing, smart electric vehicles and IoT, as well as bilateral investment and human resource training, all in order to create business opportunity platforms for Taiwanese manufacturers and building mutually beneficial opportunities between Taiwan and the US.\nAfter attending Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) high level dialogues, Minister Shen flew from Washington to the west coast for the purpose of visiting high tech corporations. The delegation included Industrial Development Bureau Director General Jang-Hwa Leu, Department of Investment Services Deputy Director General Chen Hsiu-Chuan, Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in San Francisco Director General Joseph C.L. Ma, and Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Seattle Director General Vincent Chin Hsiang Yao. The delegation was warmly welcomed by senior members of the aforementioned companies, and they engaged in honest, constructive, and in-depth discussions regarding the future development of up-and-coming industries, as well as opportunities for cooperation. The \u201cSilicon Valley and Taiwan Business Forum\u201d platform (which includes the Taiwanese American Chamber of Commerce and Junior Chamber - Northern California, the North America Taiwanese Engineering & Science Association - Silicon Valley, Monte Jade West Science and Technology Association, and 12 other Taiwanese business organizations), based in the Bay Area of San Francisco, and members of the high-tech industry also shared their thoughts with Minister Shen through a luncheon. Through examples like Taiwanese bicycles, electric scooters, and power systems for electric cars, Minister Shen illustrated instances of industry upgrade and transformation in Taiwan, and talked in length about how to deepen industrial connections between Taiwan and Silicon Valley, aid Taiwanese industries to quickly transform and upgrade, and take hold of the rising trend of smart industries. Likewise, Minister Shen explained how the government is promoting energy transformation while ensuring stability of energy sources to maintain a high quality environment for investment.\nWhile taking questions from the media at Silicon Valley, Minister Shen stated that Taiwan\u2019s 5+2 Industrial Innovation Plan will start from the three main directions of \u201cconnecting the future, connecting the world, and connecting local industries\u201d, focusing especially on aspects pertaining to the future competitivity of the industry and major business opportunities such as smart technology, IoT, Big Data, cloud computing, electric cars, advanced manufacturing, and green energy. The purpose of this visit to the American west coast is to strengthen ties between important American high-tech companies and Taiwanese industries, and to explore areas for cooperation in the future.\nFor his first stop at Silicon Valley, Minister Shen visited the famous corporation Nvidia, which focuses on the design and sales of AI and graphic processors. Founder and CEO Jensen Huang personally introduced the company's recent research and development results and the company's current operations. In 2018, market intelligence and advisory firm Compass Intelligence revealed which are the world\u2019s top 15 companies manufacturing AI smart chips, the top three being Nvidia, Intel, and NXP. Minister Shen remarked that Taiwan is committed to becoming a key player in the global AI field, and Nvidia is a world class leader of AI firms. He entreated Nvidia to collaborate with Taiwanese industry and academia, set up an AI R&D center in Taiwan, and hire Taiwanese talent to develop forward-thinking AI technology, including self-driving cars, IoT, and robotics.\nDuring the visit of Minister Shen and the delegation to the US\u2019s largest electric car manufacturer and solar energy company Tesla, he stated that the company has already collaborated with dozens of Taiwanese parts suppliers, and that the high quality parts manufactured in Taiwan can support Tesla\u2019s rapid development. He looks forward to Tesla expanding its collaboration with Taiwanese auto parts and automobile electronics firms. He also suggested that Tesla invest in setting up a factory or R&D center in Taiwan.\nWhile in the Bay Area of San Francisco, Minister Shen also visited Facebook and Google, exchanging in-depth ideas on how VR and data center investment planning can further cooperation with Taiwanese sensory technology and hardware firms while expanding investments. Next, the delegation headed to Seattle in order to visit Microsoft, which has maintained a long-term collaboration with Taiwanese industries, government, and academia, as well as Amazon, the world\u2019s largest international e-commerce business platform. He exchanged substantial ideas with senior members of the companies regarding industrial collaboration in AI, industrial IoT, IoT verification, machine learning, cloud computing, Big Data, and performing AI talent training, as well as how the Taiwanese government may provide assistance.\nFor over half a century, Taiwan and the US have shared close collaborations, co-dependency, and mutual benefits, a rare shining example in the history of contemporary industry development. Minister Shen stated that with the most intensive industry clusters in the world, and the most comprehensive semi-conductor, ICT, and machinery industry supply chain, Taiwan is a favored partner for international corporations. US companies all expressed high levels of interest and approval towards strengthening collaborations with Taiwan. We trust that with follow-up communications and arrangements, they will certainly help Taiwan in the development of emerging industries.\nContact Person: Lu Wen-Tsan, Deputy Director General of Metals and Industry Division of the Industrial Development Bureau\nTelephone: 02-27541255 Ext 2141, 0936-456512\nEmail: wtlu@moeaidb.gov.tw",

His latest proposal should ensure completion of the effort with a requested funding level of $6M through 2019.\nThe Connected Corridors Program has been a significant national contributor to leading edge knowledge in the area of integrated transportation corridor management of vehicles and systems including novel modeling techniques, data science, project planning and systems engineering, as well as organizational change management.\nWhile managing this group, Joe has demonstrated incredible leadership and commitment to ensure the successful completion of this program, and to ensure that the identified corridor for which the work occurs will become a legacy laboratory that will inspire UC research efforts for years to come.\n\u201cJoe\u2019s gr eatest attribute has been his ability to lead and maintain excitement in a team comprised of faculty, students, professional staff and consultants and our sponsoring partners through a long lasting and vitally important research and development program,\u201d says PATH Co-Director Tom West.\nHe added the commitment, dedication, and leadership necessary to keep so many people engaged and excited about a highly complicated project of this magnitude and duration cannot be underestimated. Joe exhibits, on a daily basis, the necessary attributes including strong and motivational communication, seasoned technical leadership, and a passion for UC excellence.\nIn addition, his contributions to traffic operations have also helped position UC Berkeley in a leadership position within the state, especially in the Senate and Assembly transportation committees. Recognizing UC Berkeley\u2019s leadership in traffic operations, in particular thanks to Joe\u2019s leadership, the State has on repeated occasions asked faculty and staff to present and testify in various venues and contributed to the recent success of UC with AB1/SB1, with funds for UC named specifically.\nPATH Administrative Assistant Erin Adrian earned a UC Berkeley Staff Appreciation and Recognition (STAR) Award for her above expectation work on two major projects in the past year: a research conference on the future of Connected and Automated vehicles that rivaled those provided by professional organizations and the relocation of an expensive flight simulator between two different buildings on campus, which involved several Berkeley departments, contractors, some construction along with the disassembly and re-assembly of the simulator \u2014under a tight schedule that required months of planning and coordination and allowed existing projects that were using the simulator to continue and new projects to begin.\n\u201cErin's performance exceeded my expectations, because, in parallel to executing these projects Erin was learning Berkeley systems and how Berkeley works,\u201d says PATH Chief Operations Officer Bob Meade, who nominated her for the award.\nPATH Research Engineer Steven Shladover recently was presented with the SAE International\u2019s SAE Electronics Intelligent Transportation Systems Award.\nEstablished in 1996, this award recognizes the profound impact that Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) will have on mobility in the 21st century. This award distinguishes an individual or team whose outstanding long-term accomplishments are judged to have significantly advanced the state-of-the-art of ITS through innovative technology achievements and/or significant industry leadership.\nResearchers Shiyan Yang, Shladover, Xiao-Yun Lu, Hani Ramezani, Aravind Kailas, and Osman Altan on earning the has been awarded the Transportation Research Board Truck and Bus Safety Committee (ANB70) Deborah Freund Paper Award for 2018 for their paper A First Investigation of Truck Drivers\u2019 Preferences and Behaviors Using a Prototype Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control System.

It is unknown which twin is the older one. Nina and Trisha would later gain another sibling, a younger brother names Paul.\nUnbeknownst to Nina and Trisha, Paul had a lifelong obsession with all things feminine, and would secretly dress in women's clothing whenever he had the opportunity. However, due to the age difference, he was never able to dress in either of his sisters' clothes. In August 2014, shortly after his twentieth birthday, Paul moved to Paris to begin work as a flight attendant. His family believed he was working for AirFrance, but in reality, he had started work for Soixante-Trois Airlines.\nRetrieved from \"http://jamieverse.wikia.com/wiki/Nina_Robertson?oldid=1746\"",

        "raw_content": "I heard from a bird that these were on sale at Michaels now for a new price.....$39.99 to be exact! After a few trips and some hunting around, I brought home my new ATG gun with a 40% off coupon and have been loving it ever since.\nPreviously I have used the Tombo Mono adhesive, but I do find that when I scrap a lot I go through it very quickly and it gets a little pricey. For example, one Tombo adhesive runs $3.99 for 39.3 feet. The ATG refills are $5.99 for a TWO pack of rolls that each have 36 YARDS of adhesive. That's a lot of savings! Even more if you use your 40% off Michaels coupon.\nI will say that loading the ATG gun is a little tricky; you do need to pay close attention to the instructions until you get the hang of it. Of course with the longer length of adhesive, you don't need to change the rolls out as often. I've used it now on a card, several scrapbook pages and two minibooks, and the strength of the adhesive is fantastic. Don't be scared away by the size of it (because before you use it, it does look a little large!), I have gotten used to it just fine. Go get yourself one!\nShort post tonight because my computer has been giving me fits all day and I'm about to chuck it out the window, but I did make these scones today.\nGood lord, these pumpkin scones are DEEEELICIOUS. I can't wait to enjoy one tomorrow with my morning coffee although I may or may not have already enjoyed two today.\nThe only changes I made were to substitute white chocolate chips for cinnamon chips, and I also only used the spice glaze and omitted the plain glaze. Even so they were still plenty sweet for me, but I'm not one for super super sugary sweet things. So if that's your thang then try both! Adam proclaimed it, \"the best thing I've ever made.\" Which may be an exaggeration, but I think he has a bit of a problem with long term memory. HA. ;)\nHopefully my surgeon will clear me to go back to work on Thursday so I can get out of this house and on with life! Being home once in a while is fine with me on a day off but I don't think I could do it every day! Kudos to you if you're a SAHM....you don't get enough credit :)\nUntil then I'll be watching this....I've been recording every episode on the DVR and watching it while I'm laid up. Not a new concept to me as I do a lot of my cooking on Sundays anyway, but if you know me at all you will know that I have LOVED Rachael Ray from the start. I started watching her on the Food Network all the way back in 2001. I have all of her cookbooks, her knives, some of her dishes and pots as well. Adam once told me if she wrapped up a turd and gave it to me, I'd be delighted. I think he might be right.\nAnyway, don't stage an intervention any time soon (although I do have a few RR magnets on my fridge....hahahaha) and if you're a RR hater I don't want to hear about it!\nLabels: products, Recipes",

When her fog of sleep clears, she finds her world is suddenly, irretrievably shattered: Her husband, Brendan, has committed suicide.\nThe first few hours following Nora\u2019s devastating discovery pass for her in a blur of numbness and disbelief. Then, a disturbing awareness slowly settles in: Brendan left no note and gave no indication that he was contemplating taking his own life. Why would a rock-solid police officer with unwavering affection for his wife, job, and quaint hometown suddenly choose to end it all? Having spent a lifetime avoiding hard truths, Nora must now start facing them.\nUnraveling her late husband\u2019s final days, Nora searches for an explanation\u2014but finds a bewildering resistance from Brendan\u2019s best friend and partner, his fellow police officers, and his brittle mother. It quickly becomes clear to Nora that she is asking questions no one wants to answer. For beneath the soft cover of snow lies a powerful conspiracy that will stop at nothing to keep its presence unknown...and its darkest secrets hidden.\nThis novel began life when one question grabbed me by the throat. What would make a good man do a very bad thing? It's amazing how many wrinkles that question led to. Before I could even start to dream up an answer, I had to figure out what the terrible thing was. That turned out to be the easy part.\nNovels are living things. They live in the crosshairs between author and reader, not fully complete until someone besides the author lays eyes on them. And they live while they are being written, constantly writhing and changing in ways that, if we are lucky, we can wrestle into some kind of shape that speaks to people.\nThis novel took on many different forms over the years, and the version you reading is in its twenty-second draft. As a result, there are scenes that were cut and a prologue that never made it in, which I'll be sharing once the book has had a chance to find readers.\nAlso a result, this book has spanned a fair amount of time in my life. I was in a Kinkos in North Carolina, writing early chapters on a rented machine, before the dawn of laptops. In one scene you will read, Nora, the main character, Googles something. But in the version my agent read, Nora went into the store to ask, leading my agent to wonder why she didn't just search. Answer? There was no Google when that scene was written, not really anyway.\nEvery novel is a journey. I'm so glad you'll be a part of this one.",

But all the technical computing benchmarks did things the old way... testing time reduction for a given problem. So with the help of a newly-minted ace post-doc, Diane Rover, we devised the first scientific benchmark to ask how much work you can get done in a given amount of time... in this case, one minute. The parallel processor vendors were hungry for something like this, so it wasn't long before we had over a hundred widely-varied computer architectures on our list. (In contrast, the NAS Parallel Benchmarks took several years to get six systems on their list.)\n\"SLALOM netted our fledgling lab its first R&D 100 award and put it on the map.

        "raw_content": "Movie Review: The Messenger\nAlternate Title: Casualties of War\nStory: Don't Shoot the Messenger would be the obvious Alternate Title choice, but I thought that the subject matter in this hard hitting film cried out for a more sober Alternate Title.\nPolar opposites in nature, Army Officers Will and Tony have the difficult task of knocking on doors, as part of the Casualty Notification Office, to inform next of kin that their wife, husband or child has been killed in action. The raw emotions come screaming off of the big screen as director Oren Moverman gets directly in your face while these officers deliver the bad news. The film was written by Mr. Moverman and Alessandro Camon. These are two men to watch.\nHow both Will and Tony cope with the emotional armor they carry to protect themselves as the news is delivered could have been sloppy and sappy but this film never goes to either of those addresses.\nThe topic is not one that most people think about and it is not easy viewing. My major criticism is that the film would have been better at 90 minutes rather than close to two hours. There were some unnecessary scenes that did nothing to further the story or the characters.\nThat said - this is a film that should be seen. You will be moved.\nWatch the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MEApxjYncI\nActing: Ben Foster as Staff Sgt. Will Montgomery, is someone to watch. His previous film 3:10 to Yuma also displayed his talent. Woody Harrelson as Capt. Tony Stone, delivers another in a series of fine performances. Samantha Morton as the recent widow Olivia Pitterson, does not lose character for a second. She is a rare talent. Jena Malone as Kelly has grown up but is still pouting. and Steve Buscemi as one of the grieving is just fine.\nTrivia: Ben Foster has been practicing Transcendental Meditation since four years old. At 12, he Won second place in an international competition for a play that he wrote and directed. He dropped out of high school his freshman year to move to Los Angeles. Woody Harrelson is a vegan. He is an activist for the legalization of marijuana. His father, Charles Harrelson, was sentenced to two life sentences for the murder of Federal Judge John Howland Wood on the orders of drug dealer Jimmy Chagra, who reportedly paid him $250,000. Harrelson has claimed to be one of the \"hobos\" taken away from \"the grassy knoll\" right after the shooting of John F. Kennedy.\nCritters: A distant kitty cat in the street\nFood: Pizza and lots of beer\nSex Spectrum: Sex is part of the opening scene and is a bit player throughout.\nBlatant Product Placement: Pepsi\nSoundtrack: Eclectic\nVisual Art: Many of the scenes are reminiscent of Edward Hopper paintings. Fabulous.\nTheater Audience: About 30 other saddened viewers. My movie buddy was not as pleased with this film as I was. He said he thought it was cookie cutter and shallow. I told him I thought he was shallow. We both laughed.\nWeather: It is a hot Jersey summer.\nSquirm Scale: Delivering this news is very squirmy.\nDrift Factor: It needed editing.\nOscar Worthy: I don't know. There cold be a nomination in the mix.\nBig Screen or Rental: I always vote for the big screen when possible.\nLength: A bit under two hours.",

Karlstad University. (PriSec)ORCID iD: 0000-0001-9535-6621\n2017 (English)In: The Ninth International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications, 2017Conference paper, Published paper (Refereed)\nOrigin of digital artifacts is asserted by digital provenance information. Provenance information is queried for proof statement validations, failure analysis, as well as replication and attribution validations. The history of data that specifies dependency among different data items that produce the data is better captured using semantic web technologies. However, such provenance information contains sensitive information such as personally identifiable information. Further, in the context of Semantic Web knowledge representation, the interrelationships among different provenance elements imply additional knowledge. In this paper, we propose an authorization model that enforces the purpose limitation principle for such semantically related information. We present the formalization of the security policy, however the policy does not reflect the direct implementation of the desired authorization. Therefore, security properties for important relationships such as sub set, set union and set intersection are defined in order to ensure consistency of the security policy. Finally, a use case scenario demonstrating the defined security policy and the properties is presented to indicate the applicability of the proposed model\nThe Ninth International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications\n1. Privacy-aware Use of Accountability Evidence\nOpen this publication in new window or tab >>Privacy-aware Use of Accountability Evidence\nThis thesis deals with the evidence that enable accountability, the privacy risks involved in using them and a privacy-aware solution to the problem of unauthorized evidence disclosure.\nLegal means to protect privacy of an individual is anchored on the data protection perspective i.e., on the responsible collection and use of personal data. Accountability plays a crucial role in such legal privacy frameworks for assuring an individual\u2019s privacy. In the European context, accountability principle is pervasive in the measures that are mandated by the General Data Protection Regulation. In general, these measures are technically achieved through automated privacy audits. System traces that record the system activities are the essential inputs to those automated audits. Nevertheless, the traces that enable accountability are themselves subject to privacy risks, because in most cases, they inform about processing of the personal data. Therefore, ensuring the privacy of the accountability traces is equally important as ensuring the privacy of the personal data. However, by and large, research involving accountability traces is concerned with storage, interoperability and analytics challenges rather than on the privacy implications involved in processing them.\nThis dissertation focuses on both the application of accountability evidence such as in the automated privacy audits and the privacy aware use of them. The overall aim of the thesis is to provide a conceptual understanding of the privacy compliance research domain and to contribute to the solutions that promote privacy-aware use of the traces that enable accountability. To address the first part of the objective, a systematic study of existing body of knowledge on automated privacy compliance is conducted. As a result, the state-of-the-art is conceptualized as taxonomies. The second part of the objective is accomplished through two results; first, a systematic understanding of the privacy challenges involved in processing of the system traces is obtained, second, a model for privacy aware access restrictions are proposed and formalized in order to prevent illegitimate access to the system traces. Access to accountability traces such as provenance are required for automatic fulfillment of accountability obligations, but they themselves contain personally identifiable information, hence in this thesis we provide a solution to prevent unauthorized access to the provenance traces.\nThis thesis deals with the evidence that enables accountability, the privacy risks involved in using it and proposes a privacy-aware solution for preventing unauthorized evidence disclosure.\nAccountability plays a crucial role in the legal privacy frameworks for assuring individuals\u2019 privacy.

A spokeswoman for the chain stated in an email to the El Paso Times that chain had always planned on making it's way to El Paso but now after some revisions of the plan, they will need the additional city tax funds to make it happen. It is not stating that it won't come to El Paso but that the city incentives would make the expansion happen faster.\nAnother reason for the city tax incentives is that El Paso will be the smallest market where the company opens a full-size 102-bay facility. City Council is set to vote on the incentive package at its meeting on Tuesday. If he incentives are approved by the city, the Dallas based company would need to start construction by 2017.

        "title": "Mark Drakeford for Welsh Labour Leader \u2014 Labour Briefing",
        "raw_content": "VOTING HAS NOW FINALLY begun in the Welsh Labour leadership election, after a \u2018phoney war\u2019 that commenced in April, when the current leader and First Minister, Carwyn Jones, announced his intention to stand down by the end of the year.\nThe first candidate to declare himself was Mark Drakeford, who is backed by the left and is the bookies\u2019 favourite to win. He faces two opponents, however, who should not be underestimated: Vaughan Gething and Eluned Morgan - both, like himself, ministers in the Welsh government.\nMark Drakeford\u2019s socialist credentials are impressive and explain why Welsh Labour Grassroots members overwhelmingly agreed to support him even before there were any other confirmed candidates in the field. Having worked as a probation officer, youth worker and social policy lecturer and served as a county councillor, he was brought into the Welsh government as a special adviser by Rhodri Morgan when the latter became First Minister in 2000, rising to head the policy team.\nIn this capacity, Drakeford was the driving force behind the policy programme that put \u201cclear red water\u201d between Wales and the policies of the then Blair government. Following his lead, Welsh ministers abandoned PFIs in favour of conventional funding of public services. They avoided foundation hospitals and the use of private facilities and eventually abolished the NHS internal market altogether.\nIn education, they resisted the introduction of academies and defended the comprehensive model from the revival of selection that developed in England. They scrapped NHS prescription charges, made a range of other public services free at the point of delivery and put equality of outcome at the heart of the government\u2019s policy objectives.\nAfter Drakeford became an Assembly Member in 2011, he spent relatively little time on the backbenches before being brought into the cabinet, initially as health secretary, in which capacity he legislated for presumed consent for organ donation, and then as finance secretary.\nAs well as having the unenviable task of managing the Welsh budget in the face of growing austerity, he has also represented Wales in the Brexit talks convened by the UK government.\nMark has also been a strong voice for party democracy. After Labour\u2019s Welsh executive committee decided last year that leadership elections in Wales would continue to be conducted by means of an electoral college, he was at the heart of the campaign to secure the introduction of OMOV (one member, one vote), which finally achieved victory at a special conference in September. He was also the only Welsh cabinet member to support Jeremy Corbyn\u2019s leadership campaign in 2015 and remained loyal during the \u2018chicken coup\u2019.\nBy contrast, neither of the other leadership candidates supported Corbyn - although both profess loyalty to the UK party leadership now. Vaughan Gething, who succeeded Drakeford as health secretary, was more comfortable with UK Labour policy during the party\u2019s Blairite phase and has had a long association with Progress, while Eluned Morgan, the minister for the Welsh language and lifelong learning, was one of those who attacked the \u201cclear red water\u201d policies from the right, a decade ago, for being insufficiently \u201caspirational\u201d.\nGething and Morgan both emphasise \u201cchange\u201d in their campaign slogans and have tried to suggest that Drakeford is the status quo candidate, while they would bring a fresh approach and greater diversity to the top of the Welsh party and government.\nGething is the only black Labour Assembly Member, while Morgan played on the need to have a woman candidate in the race to secure the six nominations from fellow AMs that she needed to get on the ballot paper. She has subsequently implied that Drakeford deliberately sought to block her candidacy, by \u2018hoovering up\u2019 the nominations of more than half the Assembly Labour Group. A more convincing analysis is that the most prominent female AMs - and those with the strongest feminist credentials - saw Mark Drakeford as the most reliable defender of women\u2019s rights in Wales.\nDrakeford also secured the backing of 24 of the 28 Welsh CLPs that made supporting nominations and seven of the nine affiliated unions - but he cannot afford to be complacent. His competitors have powerful allies and Gething, in particular, has run a slick campaign. But either of them would pull Welsh Labour back to the thinking of the 1990s and 2000s, while Mark Drakeford would preside over a Welsh Labour Party fully in tune with the ideas of Jeremy Corbyn and commit his government to creating a more equal Wales. It is essential that he wins.\nis a member of the Labour Party NEC and Welsh Executive Committee.",

Historic Seattle owns the house, while the Seattle Parks Department owns the greenbelt. Every few years Historic Seattle will open the house to the public for tours and as a reminder of the building\u2019s architectural significance to Seattle. The rest of the time the house is rented out to tenants to enjoy.\nEgan House is a time capsule taking you back to what was breakthrough modern style, inside and out, over a half century ago. Original detailing remains, including a late fifties kitchen ordered from Sears, complete with a refrigerator in the cupboards and the facade of a once working washing machine. Customized pocket doors make efficient use of the modest space; a floating staircase made with Alaskan marble connects the floors.\nWhen it was first build in 1958, the house caused people to stop and gawk. Today it is the youngest building Historic Seattle has preserved and put into reuse. As Historic Seattle notes in its brochure (folded in triangle) about the house, \u201cThe striking design represents a shift away from architectural traditionalism, and its preservation illustrates new views of what is worth saving. Part of what makes it so memorable is that the house is isolated from its neighbors by the site\u2019s topography. Adding to the house\u2019s notability is the unique approach to life taken by its designer: in the 1950\u2019s, architect Robert Reichert was a unique character within Seattle\u2019s design community. As other local architects embraced international modernism and helped develop a Pacific Northwest architectural style featuring strong horizontals, overhanging eaves, modular forms and clean lines, Reichert went his own way.\u201d\nThe living room is at the top of the house providing the space with dramatic, high ceilings.\nThe other side of the living room, and off this side is a triangular deck with view of Lake Union.\nEvery couple of years, Historic Seattle opens the Egan House up for public tours.",

        "title": "Health 2.0 Communities Evolve",
        "raw_content": "Health 2.0 Communities Evolve\nWhen Amy Tenderich was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2003, she felt like she was the only adult in the world who could have something that many think of as a child\u2019s disease. It wasn\u2019t until she started blogging about her condition that she found out she wasn\u2019t alone. Her site, Diabetes Mine, soon turned into one of the most widely read blogs about the disease and came to be a forum where people talk about diabetes with Tenderich and with each other. \u201cAll around me hundreds of new blogs and online communities started popping up, and I found myself in the middle of this Health 2.0 movement,\u201d Tenderich said.\nDiscussions about online health communities got a lot of play at this year\u2019s fall conference, and they were the topic of one of the opening discussions on Monday. Thomas Goetz, executive editor of Wired Magazine, Gary Wolf, co-founder of Quantified Self and Aza Raskin, co-founder of Massive Health, sat on a panel that analyzed the strategies of several Health 2.0 companies that connect groups of people online. \u201cCommunity has a very effective way to get people to care about, externalize and reflect upon their choices, whether that community is a family, a work group or these ad hoc online social groups,\u201d Goetz said.\nDuring the segment, David Metzler, founder and CEO of OneRecovery, an online and mobile support group for those recovering from addictive diseases, presented findings that speak to the potential clinical impact that online communities can have. A recent Aetna study found that use of the OneRecovery program, which employs social and gaming features, reduced treatment readmissions by 67% with members who had been out of treatment longer than 270 days.\nThe result is impressive on its own, but it\u2019s even more impressive when you consider how far participation in online social health has come in just a few years. Tenderich moderated a panel later in the day, and she pointed out that when she first came to the Health 2.0 conference in 2007, the future of online communities wasn\u2019t clear. \u201cBack then we were asking ourselves whether people would really engage, whether it was scalable and whether tools could be integrated into these communities to help people actually do something about their health.\u201d The answer to all of these questions is \u201cyes,\u201d she said. Still, online communities have a lot of room to evolve be sure, and it remains to be seen if they\u2019ll ever be accepted as mainstream.\nOne shift starting to indicate that they might is the growing popularity of online communities with health care professionals. A new example of this came Monday when Alliance Health, a social networking company, announced that it will work with the Joslin Diabetes Center, a leading diabetes research and clinical care organization. Alliance started building health social networks in 2008 beginning with a community for diabetes patients and then growing to include other groups for patients with COPD, sleep conditions, depression, chronic pain and more. Today there are 600,000 members in the diabetes community alone and almost one million people registered across all of the categories. Tenderich, vice president of patient advocacy at Alliance, said the company has always intended to include physicians on the Diabetic Connect network, but the site first needed to establish a reputation. \u201cIn the early years physicians were all super standoffish about doing anything, and now they\u2019re licensing content to us and working with us, so the world has actually changed quite a bit in that respect in the last three years,\u201d Tenderich said.\nThe idea is for Joslin clinicians to be active members in the community by commenting on patient posts and responding to frequently asked questions. \u201cWe feel there\u2019s a chance to now bring endocrinologists and other clinicians online to engage with patients and maybe clarify things, amplify things or just kind of give it a Joslin stamp of approval,\u201d David Goldsmith, Vice President, Corporate Development said.\nAlliance isn\u2019t the first company to include physicians in its social network. Online community HealthTap, which officially launched at the conference on Monday, already has 4,000 physician members in its network, and the number is growing, according to CEO and founder Ron Gutman. Since HealthTap built its site with physicians from the start, they are a vital component to the success of the community. From here, not only will we find out if physicians will continue to show interest in joining these types of communities, but also, if they\u2019re willing to become as active in online health communities as their patients already are.",

Participants are exposed to less fortunate communities and engaged in activities such as community work at an orphanage, helping the less fortunate schools, providing donations to the poor. CIPs are usually part of an educational tour, with the program spanning between 1-3 days with a set theme.\nAs both a travel agent and learning and training organization, OIA is introducing a more sustainable and enlightened approach to CSR and CIP travel overseas. OIA has designed an educative program aiming at empowering participants for meaningful CIP sustainable programs that go far further charity. A key outcome is authentic leadership development that can be derived from such programs.\nOur programs are created to prepare participants before the trip itself, and to provide opportunities for them to continue being challenged after. This creates a much higher return on investment and a more holistic learning experience.\nCorporations or schools do not need to send volunteers far to give them unique, transformative experiences. The greatest learning for many participants is about experiencing an authentic exchange of culture, appreciation and values. It is about receiving as much as giving, keeping an open mind, an open heart and looking at each other as equals.",

Is there no virtue among us? If there be not, we are in a wretched situation. No theoretical checks -- no form of government can render us secure. To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people, is a chimerical idea. If there be sufficient virtue and intelligence in the community, it will be exercised in the selection of these men. So that we do not depend on their virtue, or put confidence in our rulers, but in the people who are to choose them.~ James Madison\nThe notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naive and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.~ H. L. Mencken\n[P]art of people\u2019s concern is just the sense that around the world the old order isn\u2019t holding and we\u2019re not quite yet to where we need to be in terms of a new order that\u2019s based on a different set of principles, that\u2019s based on a sense of common humanity, that\u2019s based on economies that work for all people.~ Barack Hussein Obama\nHistory has taught us time and again that political power always raises its angry fist when timeless principles are lost. We know that without the scale of \"self-evident truths\" grounded in the \"laws of nature and nature's God,\" every culture eventually finds itself subject to the rule of the gang or the tyranny of the individual. Recognizing this, scholars of all ages have confidently given their hearts and minds to the words, \"You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.~ Everett Piper",

The trail is on Hawkes Preserve, consisting of 40 acres of conserved land and over 2,000 feet of frontage on the Presumpscot River.\n\u201cTo think that we now have a 1-mile nature loop trail adjacent to our school property is extremely exciting,\u201d said Great Falls principal Becky Fortier during the ribbon cutting ceremony.\nDonald Wescott, a board member of the Presumpscot Regional Land Trust, said that the new trail is the result of four years of hard work completed by community members and volunteers.\n\u201cVolunteers were involved in every aspect of building the trail from trimming to mulching but by far the most effort was spent building and updating more than ten bridges, the largest bridge alone took three full days of volunteer work crews,\u201d said Wescott.\nWescott also stated that even before the construction of Great Falls School, the property on Presumpscot\u2019s Regional Land Trust\u2019s radar.\n\u201cWhat makes the property quite significant is that the old historic Cumberland Oxford Canal falls along this property,\u201d Wescott said. \u201cA path was always there, and people had hiked it for a number of years...the only other trail on the property at the time was an old jeep trail,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThere was no real official public access to the property...we began to get people coming over, but there was no real place to park. They had to walk all the way in from the Rod and Gun Club on Tow Path Road,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThen, (the school\u2019s construction) was the real game changer. When the school was under construction, those of us in the land trust recognized that this was an opportunity to do something different with this property, rather than let it sit there,\u201d said Wescott.\nThe trail has two trailheads that are now open to the public. The first trailhead is behind the school and can be accessed by parking in the school\u2019s parking lot, and the second is at the end of Tow Path Road off Route 202 in Gorham. The trail, though open to the public, will be utilized for educational purposes.",

        "title": "The Case for Recycled Carbon Fibre in Auto Lightweighting - LightWeighting World : LightWeighting World",
        "raw_content": "By Frazer Barnes, Managing Director, ELG Carbon Fibre Ltd.\nAfter decades of steady but moderate growth, the selection of carbon fibre composites for the primary structure on the Boeing 787 marked a turning point in development of the industry. From that point onwards, carbon fibre has been considered as an option whenever high performance and low weight has been a requirement. More recently, the use of carbon fibre by BMW in its i3 model marked another turning point, this time in the automotive market, with carbon fibre being used in high volumes on a production vehicle. The growth in the use of carbon fibre that these developments have spurred creates new challenges\u2014among them how to reduce costs, to ensure that carbon fibre composites can compete with other high performance materials, how to deal with both the manufacturing and end-of-life waste that will be generated from the increased use of carbon fibre, and how to avoid the supply and demand imbalance that has been a characteristic of the carbon fibre industry.\nFortunately, the solutions to these challenges are not exclusive. Recognising the growth that the carbon fibre industry was about to experience, several companies, with ELG Carbon Fibre among them, have been investigating how to recycle carbon fibre for several years. In the case of ELG, this has resulted in a commercial scale carbon fibre recycling operation that can process over 2,000 tonnes of carbon fibre containing waste each year, and produce over 1,000 tonnes of recycled carbon fibre products that can be returned to industry (output in 2015 was just over 1,000 tonnes). Although most of this material is used in other industries today, we see one of the main markets in the future being lightweighting in the automotive industry. The reasons for this are discussed below, but first it worthwhile describing the recycled carbon fibre materials that are available today.\nRecycled Carbon Fibre Materials\nIn general, recycled carbon fibre materials are available that can be used in either the compounding industry or the composites industry.\nThe products for the compounding industry are short fibre materials, with lengths ranging from 80\u00b5m to 12mm. These materials are available as free flowing powders (for the very short fibre materials), chopped fibres or as pellets which are easier to handle in downstream production processes. The principal benefit of using recycled carbon fibres for these applications is that they provide exactly the same properties as virgin carbon fibre, at approximately 60% of the cost. Thus, they open up the possibility of replacing glass fibre in reinforced thermoplastics, providing the same level of structural performance at reduced weight, or at increased loading providing improved mechanical performance such that they become viable alternatives to either aluminium or magnesium.\nThe products for the composites industry are long, discontinuous fibre products, where the fibre length is typically between 50mm and 150mm. The most common form in which these materials are supplied are as nonwoven mats. These can be made from carbon fibre alone, in which case the mats can be used with liquid moulding processes, or as the reinforcement for prepregs and sheet moulding compounds. They can also be made from blends of carbon fibre and thermoplastic fibres such as PP, PA and PPS, in which case laminates can be made directly by compression moulding.\nExtensive testing shows that the properties of materials based on recycled carbon fibres are similar to those of the same type of materials based on virgin carbon fibres; the main difference is cost, which is typically 30%-40% lower for the virgin carbon fibre products. This is very relevant to the automotive industry, where although there is a strong imperative for lightweighting, it has to be at economic cost.\nOne facet of the automotive industry is that even though the mass of individual components may be low, production volumes are orders of magnitude greater than those typically found in the composites industry. This means automated manufacturing processes, which in turn demand consistent raw materials. While this can be problematic with other plastic materials, the fact is that there are just a few grades of carbon fibre that are used in very high volumes, and the production programmes that use these fibres will be running for at least another 25 years. The total amount of carbon fibre waste that was produced during manufacturing in 2015 was around 24,000 tonnes, thus stable supplies of feedstock exist, from which very consistent products can be made to support high volume automotive programmes. Moreover, as the components that use these materials reach the end of their lives, an additional high volume sources of feedstock open up.\nIndeed, it may be that recycled carbon fibres offer a more stable supply chain than virgin carbon fibres. After a period of oversupply in the carbon fibre market, as a result of the global economic downturn and investments in additional carbon fibre manufacturing capacity, forecasters are again expecting demand to outstrip supply in the next few years. The situation may not be as severe as we have experienced previously\u2014new entrants to the carbon fibre market don\u2019t have the same legacy business volumes they have to support\u2014but nonetheless, it is unlikely that all of the forecast new business can be supported. Utilising the high volumes of waste carbon fibre provides more certain in the supply chain, to the benefit of both the end users and the wider composites industry.\nOf course, not everything application is suitable for recycled carbon fibre alone. In some cases, the right option may be to use a high performance metal, or a glass reinforced plastic, in other cases the best option may be to combine virgin and recycled carbon fibres in the same component. The main responsibility of the industry is to make engineers aware of the possibilities of recycled carbon fibres, and to provide them with the data they need to properly assess the materials.\nA good example of the use of recycled carbon fibres with other materials is the iStream Carbon concept, by Gordon Murray Design. This approach takes advantage of the benefits of both recycled carbon fibre and steel to provide a structure that is lightweight, durable and cost effective.\niStream\u00ae Carbon (photo courtesy of Gordon Murray Design)\nThe final advantage provided by using recycled materials comes in the vehicle life cycle assessment, where the significantly lower embodied energy in the recycled carbon fibre products provides a large benefit. With car manufacturers increasingly using life cycle assessment as part of their materials selection process, this increases the potential applications of recycled carbon fibre.\nIn summary, there are strong economic, supply chain security and environmental reasons to consider recycled carbon fibre materials in the search for cost effective solutions for lightweighting in the automotive industry. With these materials now being produced in commercial volumes, and with the design data necessary to allow engineers to explore the possibilities of these materials now available, we can now expect these materials to increasingly feature in lightweighting solutions across the whole transportation sector.\nFrazer Barnes is Managing Director of ELG Carbon Fibre, a pioneer and leader in the carbon-fibre recycling industry. He has more than 30 yeras experience in the composites industry, working with SP Systems (now Gurit), Cytec Engineered Materials (now Solvay) and Hengshen Carbon Fibre in the U.K., U.S. and China.\nTags: carbon fibers, composites, compounding industry, ELG Carbon Fibre Ltd",

It is most commonly diagnosed in children less than 5 years of age and becomes exceedingly rare after the age of 10.\nMost neuroblastomas begin in early nerve cells within the sympathetic nervous system in the abdomen or near the spine in the chest, neck or pelvis.\nNYU Winthrop\u2019s Cancer Center for Kids is the largest outpatient facility for treating children with cancer in Nassau County. They are the county\u2019s only members of the Children\u2019s Oncology Group, an international group of hospitals recognized as leaders in the treatment of childhood cancers.\n\u201cHope and healing are what our pediatric cancer specialists provide,\u201d Winthrop\u2019s website reads.\n\u2014 Information obtained from the American Cancer Society and NYUWinthrop.org.\nFor the second time in two years, volunteer basketball teams competed at John F. Kennedy High School to raise money for children\u2019s cancer research.\nThe Hoops for Sadie tournament last Sunday netted more than $15,000 for the NYU Winthrop Cancer Center for Kids, in honor of Birch School sixth-grader Sadie Freifeld, whose neuroblastoma is currently in remission, thanks to the work done at Winthrop.\nHoops for Sadie began last year after family friend Adam Wohlleben learned of Sadie\u2019s fight against the cancer, which attacked her nervous system. Wohlleben, who organizes the Bellmore-Merrick Basketball League, began putting together a tournament to raise funds and awareness.\n\u201cNot only does this event bring the community together,\u201d Wohlleben said, \u201cit also gives people the opportunity to take part in an issue that is near and dear to our hearts.\u201d\nTeams of four, with players in grades 4 to 12, entered the tournament, which charged $100 per team. Outside the court, funds were also collected through snack stands, where a smiling Sadie greeted players and supporters.\n\u201cThis is all really exciting,\u201d said Sadie, 11, of Merrick, sporting her \u201cHoops for LuvSadie\u201d BMBB shirt. \u201cThe whole community came together, and I\u2019m amazed at the amount of people. I didn\u2019t even know it would be this many.\u201d\nSadie was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at age 3, and went into remission for almost six years after receiving treatment. She was diagnosed again in March 2017, and again went into remission earlier this year. Sadie went through many hardships and hours of treatment at NYU Winthrop, she said, but she is grateful to have good health now.\n\u201cWe\u2019re seeing a tremendous outpouring of people,\u201d said her mother, Beth, at the event. \u201cEveryone has come together for a place that has saved my daughter\u2019s life twice.\u201d\nWhile about 100 fewer people attended this year, the event still had almost 300 people, and surpassed its donation goal expectations, Beth said.\nThe family and organizers were aiming for at least half of last year\u2019s $20,000 collection \u2014 an amount the Freifelds were \u201cpleasantly shocked\u201d by, said Sadie\u2019s father, Steven \u2014 and they collected more than $15,000 by the end of the event, with more donations coming in the following days.\nSusan Lombardo, whose daughter, Billie, is one of Sadie\u2019s best friends, helped organize the first tournament, and told the Herald at the time, \u201cWe\u2019re battling this as a community.\u201d\nA number of local businesses sponsored the event, including the Douglas Elliman Magelefsky Team, attorney Michael J. Turner, Tomato and Basil Pizzeria, Sentry Communications and Security, Lakeview Mortgage Bankers and the Law Office of John A. Testaiuti.\nMark Weinblatt, chief of pediatric hematology and oncology at Winthrop, visited the event and shared his praise of Sadie.\n\u201cSadie was a real trouper while undergoing treatment,\u201d Weinblatt said. \u201cShe rolled with the punches and always kept a positive attitude.\u201d\nWhile Sadie appreciates the attention, she said, the funding that goes to Winthrop to help other young patients is the most important takeaway.\n\u201cThe money isn\u2019t for us,\u201d Sadie said. \u201cIt\u2019s for the hospital, and other kids, too. And no matter what people contribute, even the least amount helps.\u201d\nHealing cancer's wounds with a haircut\nBeating childhood cancer: Sadie lives",

        "raw_content": "An Interview with Al Oomens\nAl Oomens, Songwriter/Guitarist\nAl Oomens is a songwriter, guitarist and Lilac Writer user. We recently took the opportunity to talk to Al about his music and his approach to songwriting.\nLW: What is your primary instrument?\nAl: I play guitar. I play both acoustic and electric. I played saxophone many years ago, and have lately been playing some bass (mostly for recording) but the guitar is my instrument.\nLW: You have done several songs featuring vocals by Emi Jarvi. How did that collaboration come about?\nAl: I had written several songs, about 6 or 8 songs, in a fairly short period of time and wanted to record them. Since, I don't really consider myself a singer, I started looking for someone to do the vocals. I first came in contact with Emi through an online music collaboration site (Indaba Music). She was doing session vocals for a number of projects at the time, and had several demos online. One song in particular, that she and her husband had written and recorded, called Modern Times, really caught my ear. Since Emi is in the UK and I'm in the US, we sent tracks back and forth using YouSendIt. I sent the rhythm tracks, and a track with my demo vocals to her. When she had finished the vocals and harmony parts, she sent me the finished tracks, which I then mixed here. Due to time and budget constraints, only three of those songs have been recorded so far, two with vocals and one instrumental. Emi was a joy to work with, and I am very happy with the results.\nLW: Do you record rough demos during the writing process?\nAl: I really don't record rough demos while writing. I have the lyrics, the music and a basic arrangement settled before I start recording. I write all my songs on guitar (usually acoustic). Sometimes, during the recording process, when I start to add drums or bass or other instrumentation, it may suggest a different direction for a particular song. I may change the style of the song slightly, or rearrange it somewhat. So, in that sense the recording process can be an extension of the writing process, but I'm not really using recording specifically for writing.\nLW: How do you record your songs? I mean, what software do you use?\nAl: I use PreSonus Studio One. I used to use one of the other major DAW programs. I got a copy of Studio One Artist with a PreSonus firewire audio interface that I purchased. I like it so much that I ended up purchasing Studio One Pro. It has really streamlined the way I record. I spend less time thinking about the mechanics of recording, and instead can concentrate on the art.\nLW: Do you tend to write using acoustic guitar?\nAl: For songs with lyrics, yes. When a song lyric is complete, I put it to music using an acoustic guitar. I generally work out the arrangement and finalize my ideas for the song using just the acoustic. At this point, I'm really writing for acoustic guitar and vocals, wanting the song to stand on it's own without requiring other instrumentation. During the recording process I start to look at adding other instruments and perhaps instrumental parts.\nLW: Are there any instruments you own that seem to inspire your creativity when working on songs?\nAl: For electric guitar parts, I have a custom built electric. I worked along with the luthier (Yuriy Shishkov) in designing the instrument, so it is a very special instrument to me. Even though it is an electric guitar, it has a distinct acoustic quality to the sound that suits my taste perfectly. I also have a Gibson acoustic that I use for most of my writing. It's not an old Gibson, and not an overly expensive model, but playing just feels right.\nLW: How important is rhyme to your approach to lyrics? Do you favor perfect rhymes do you work with the various forms of near rhyme that are available on Lilac Writer?\nAl: I feel that the word that would best express what you are trying to say, that will paint the best picture of the emotions you are trying to express, is the best word to use, even if it's not a perfect rhyme. Lilac Writer has probably the best rhyming dictionary that I have seen, including many different types of rhymes. And, it's right there, in the same program, if you need it.\nLW: So what's next for your music? Do you have any projects or performances coming up?\nAl: I have a number of songs, both instrumental and with vocals, that are complete. I plan on recording those over the next few months. Several people have also asked me (during the holidays) about an instrumental Christmas album with maybe one or two guest vocals. So I am starting to think about songs for that and will hopefully have something by the next holiday season.\nTo get a flavor of Al Oomens' music check out his website:\nhttp://www.aloomens.com.",

If you don't like it, you can leave my country, asshole.\nthis is just dumb. check all the men and ugly women that try to get work at Hooters. Look at the Boy Scouts of America banning gay scout leaders\nThe organization's legal right to have these policies has been upheld repeatedly by both state and federal courts. In Boy Scouts of America v. Dale, the Supreme Court of the United States has affirmed that as a private organization, the BSA can set its own membership standards. The BSA's policies have been legally challenged but have not been found to constitute illegal discrimination; as a private organization in the United States they have the right to freedom of association,[3] as determined in Boy Scouts of America v. Dale.[4] In recent years, the policy disputes have led to litigation over the terms under which the BSA can access governmental resources including public lands.\nI agree with the court cases you cited. The point of my fourteenth amendment argument was to simply state that I don't want to be part of an environment where I can't blatantly call someone a \"queer.\" Being able to disagree unpolitely adds a certain style to conversation.\nI believe there are private organizations which have been abridged by the fourteenth amendment. In your uncapatilize sentences which were an attempt at a one-line-argument, you brought up the argument of Hooters; we don't have a Hooters where I live, but they are a money-making organization--unlike the Boy Scouts of America.\nI'll tell you why I like jsp 10000x more than i like lld101.\nThe website is faster.\nMods don't ride your every post.\nmurda wrote:\nI'm not a big fan of either, but I prefer lld101.\njsp is the biggest piece of shit. asshole power abusing mods and 99% of the members are mentally challenged. too bad lld101 is dead though\nreg123 wrote:\nDead, but you can still post a question and get a response. That was the main goal of this site I always thought\nThe site was designated as a central meeting place for people who wanted to low level duel in lld. Not just a q&a place but a gathering place.\nI've noticed more topics about people asking questions/ answering questions as opposed to just general talking. Atleast thats the ones that stick out in my memory\nThere is more q & a than convo. Good job on the obvious. *dumb eye roll*\nThanks for agreeing . So what was your original point?\n*sigh* I miss this sight\nI think the reason for the decline was twofold and neither of which could be prevented.\n1. LLD reached a sort of critical mass of players and wealth. This was the turning point where most trade savvy non-LLD'ers realised the value of LLD items which made JSP an even more attractive place for LLD'ers.\nAlso, on Europe, eventually there were enough people with enough wealth to enable you to fight against perf chars any time of day. After a while it gets boring and you just just wanna kill some high level noobs (and the noobs are more knowledgeable about LLD too).\n2. The game is old and players are leaving it.\nlld101 will forever be in our hearts XD and in our lld tvt games ofc\njust a visit..hi guys",

        "raw_content": "At the age of only 36, he took up the post of Professor in choral conducting at the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen. He could hardly have imagined that it would be the overture to a choral achievement that would echo around the world. But the road to international fame had been a long one.\nDan-Olof Stenlund first saw the light of day in northern Sweden, near the polar circle. But when his guiding star drew his gaze southwards he could not be stopped. The first halt was the Musical Academy in Stockholm, where at high tempo he completed training courses in piano, organ, cello and song. This was followed by studies in conducting, under Sergiu Celibidache and Leonard Bernstein.\nThe long journey from the polar circle could have reached a glorius final destinatioin at this point, but Professor Stenlund still follows his guiding star. In an interview on his 50th birthday he said:\n\"I feel like a little boy at the beginning of something exciting and unexplored. The more you learn the more there remains to be discovered\". It is not surprising therefore that the journeyings continue to extend. Guest lectures at different American universities are succeeded by seminars for choral conductors and singers in Europe. And for many years, Dan-Olof Stenlund has been one of the most eminent conductors at the big international choir festivals Europa Cantat.",

How was this exceptional event reflected on Instagram? What can visual social media tell us about the experiences of people during social upheavals?\nIf we look at images of Kyiv published by many global media outlets during the 2014 Ukrainian Revolution, the whole city is reduced to what was taking place on its main square. On Instagram, it looks different. The images of clashes between protesters and the police and political slogans appear next to the images of the typical Instagram subjects. Most people continue their lives. The exceptional co-exists with the everyday. We saw this in the collected images, and we wanted to communicate it in the project.\nIn this project we analyze the content of images and also non-visual data that accompanies them: most frequent tags, the use of English, Ukrainian, and Russian languages, dates and times when images their shared, and their geo-locations.\n\u201cThe Exceptional and the Everyday: 144 Hours in Kyiv\u201d is the first project to analyze the use of Instagram during a social upheaval. Using computational and data visualization techniques, we explore 13,208 Instagram images shared by 6,165 people in the central area of Kyiv during 2014 Ukrainian revolution (February 17 - February 22, 2014).

I am inspired by deep space, nature, and all the little sounds in between. Drum and Bass is the perfect platform for swirling multiple styles into one.\nI have been into music nearly my whole life. My brother and I were really into breakdancing. This laid the foundation for my appreciation of beat driven music. My parents got me a cheap drum set when I was 6 or 7. I broke it right away and soon got another one. I was introduced to several other instruments during my life but never really settled on one. My older sister got me into New Wave and that influenced me a bunch too. After high school I moved away and started life on my own.\nI found my interest in making electronic music in the late 90's. I began listening to a late night college radio station that played only electronic music, and I wanted to start making my own. I began experimenting with the early days of Reason, producing House, Techno and Downtempo. I started producing Drum and Bass in 2012, blending elements of Jazz, House, Techno, and Ambiant. My music began to get noticed when I got my stuff on Soundcloud and my tunes appeared on several Secret Soundcloud mixes.\nMy first release was Summer 2013 with two tunes on Digital Colours Recordings, followed by a track on the debut compilation album, \"The Launch,\" under the Liquid Boppers label. I have releases due out soon with C-Recordings, Global Energy Recordings, Odyssey Recordings, Liquid Boppers, DNBB, and Mastik. I am currently collaborating with Lady Emz.\nThis is only the beginning. Recognition is affirming but it is not why I make music. The future is built on experimentation. My music will continue to evolve.",

        "raw_content": "Home > People > State Theatre Appoints Mamela Nyamza Deputy Artistic Director\nThe CEO of the South African State Theatre, Dr. Sibongiseni Mkhize is proud to welcome acclaimed Dancer and Choreographer, Ms Mamela Nyamza as the newly appointed Deputy Artistic Director effective from 1st November 2018.\nMs Nyamza\u2019s key role will be to provide support to the Artistic Director creatively and administratively. She will be working closely with the Education Youth Children Theatre (EYCT) department, which focuses on the development of young artists in the industry; initiating the development programmes to support the main programme and ensure integration of the overall artistic programme.\nThe appointment comes at a time when the State Theatre has committed to taking over the Dance Umbrella Festival from 2019. One of South Africa\u2019s biggest dance festivals took a bow over funding battles in March 2018 during its\u2019 30th edition. Ms Nyamza will be at the helm of the festival as its curator when it relaunches in April 2019.\n\u201cI want to express my appreciation to the State Theatre, and particularly the Artistic Director for putting his trust in me. I am deeply honoured. I am sure it was a difficult choice to make, as there are a number of people who also are capable for this position.\u201d says Nyamza.\nShe says her ultimate vision is to create and direct more work that would reach the most remote areas of SA to unearth young, raw talent in the art of dance and performance arts in general.\nThe State Theatre\u2019s Artistic Director, Mr Aubrey Sekhabi expressed his excitement about this appointment and the skill set that Nyamza will bring to the organisation. \u201cMamela will also help us to generate and capture new audiences for the theatre. Her appointment comes at a time when the theatre is developing female artistic directors. There could not have been a better time,\u201d says Sekhabi.\nThe 42-year-old acclaimed dancer and choreographer was born and bred in Gugulethu township, near Cape Town. In 1993 she completed her matric at Fezeka High School in the hometown. She then enrolled with Pretoria Technikon, now called Tshwane University of Technology, to obtain her National Diploma in Ballet.\nThis will not be the first time for Ms Nyamza to work for the State Theatre. From the years 1997 to 2000, she was resident dancer and choreographer for the theatre. Besides being a freelance artist in her career, for the previous three year she sat on the Advisory Panel in Dance for the South African National Arts Council (NAC).\nHer immense contribution to dance and the arts broadly saw her being the first dance artist to be chosen as the Featured Artist at the 2018 National Arts Festival in Makhanda. Other accolades include being Standard Bank Young Artist Award for Dance in 2011, Oprah Winfrey Women of the Year (2013), Mail and Guardian\u2019s Top 200 Young South Africans for Arts and Culture (2009) and many more.\n#Mamela Nyamza\t#State Theatre\nSomizi sure to add drama on Idols, SA\nCassper Nyovest road to #fillupOrlando",

        "raw_content": "The Hottest Summer in Recorded History - Elizabeth Bachinsky\nToday's book of poetry: The Hottest Summer in Recorded History. Elizabeth Bachinsky. Nightwood Editions. Gibons, B.C.. 2013.\nReading Elizabeth Bachinsky's rollicking frolic of a collection The Hottest Summer in Recorded History is a bit like having an exciting conversation with someone new, someone you are hoping will become a friend. Bachinsky has an old crone's wisdom and a hipster lens as she pistol whips any pretensions the reader might have.\nThis Nightwood Editions book was designed by Carleton Wilson and looks both very old and totally modern, ultimately a very attractive book. The poems are equally attractive. Some are riffs, some laments, some lists. Bachinsky is not shackled by structure or formality, she embraces humour and eroticism with a welcome playfulness that never undermines the serious poet underneath.\nSleeping With Jane\nfor Thomas Ziorjen\nFlorence couldn't remember much because she had Alzheimer's\ndisease, so she moved into her daughter Jane's house - the house\nher daughter shared with the son-in-law Florence had traditionally\ndisliked a great deal. Now she didn't know him and that felt better.\nShe didn't know the children, either. She thought the family bunny,\nSpot, was a cat. Florence said, \"What are you going to call that cat?\"\n\"It's a bunny,\" her grandson said. \"Bunny, That's a good name,\"\nFlorence said. \"It looks just like a bunny.\" The son-in-law, a stay-\nat-home dad, looked after Florence during the day. \"Who is that\nman?\" she asked her daughter one night. \"I don't know him,\nbut he makes a lovely breakfast and I think he's sleeping with Jane.\"\nThis is Bachinsky's fifth book of poetry. Earlier books have been nominated for both the Pat Lowther Award and the Governor General's Award for Poetry. The Hottest Summer in Recorded History continues Bachinsky's excellent march. Her poems are an entertaining pleasure, they are without pretence and they are provocative.\nOne of Bachinsky's poems, The Mountain, appears in a chapbook edited by Jason Camlot for Synapse Press in Montreal called After The Mountain, The A.M. Klein Reboot Project. I was tickled to be included in the same short collection when it appeared. Now - it's just like bragging. And I'm fine with that, pleased to be in such fine company.\nTake a look for this book, no way you'd regret it.\nwww.nightwoodeditions.com\nsuzannahgreenbean April 12, 2013 at 6:53 AM\nthanks Dennis. she's very witty. love her sense of humour. reminds me of theatre of the absurd, re: life. will look for her books at sadlier house ;)",

Surprisingly, the new logo will only mark the restaurants fifth image update since founder Dave Thomas opened the first Wendy\u2019s in 1969.\nAlong with a logo change in March, customers can expect to start seeing renovations to outdated restaurants complete with natural lighting, new TVs and more variety in seating options, according to Brolick.\nWendy\u2019s hopes that its new makeover will help make the restaurant competitive with the likes of places like Panera Bread and Chipotle Mexican Grill, which are typically revered as higher-end eating establishments.\nFiled Under: fast food, Wendy's",

        "raw_content": "City Manager Addresses CP Rail Lease Questions\nWayne Ritchie defends city's process in lease of property, dismisses conflict of interest concerns\nOwen Sound's city manager defended the handling of the former CP Rail Station property and dismissed conflict of interest concerns in a press conference yesterday.\nAbout 50 people were on hand at the Temporary City Hall location at the Professional Centre Wednesday afternoon for Wayne Ritchie's address about the strategic goals and outcomes of the acquisition, renovation and lease of the heritage property at Owen Sound's east harbour.\n\"I'm thrilled with that building. I'm thrilled to have it on the market,\" Ritchie says. \"It's going to be taxes, it's employing people, it's bringing people to our harbour front.\"\nRitchie says goals to be achieved through the lease were to maintain as many heritage features of the building as possible, use the property as an attraction and activity for harbour visitors and to encourage more private investment in the harbour area.\n\"Practical goal was to achieve all of the above with the least cost to the taxpayer as possible,\" Ritchie explains.\nRitchie broached the subject of conflict of interest concerns raised regarding city staff who have family members as shareholders in Mudtown Station.\n\"This happened after the lease and interaction with the city had been finalized,\" Ritchie explains. \"City staff are subject to the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act. I believe the Conflict of Interest guidelines have been followed.\"\n\"I have complete confidence in the honesty and integrity of members of my senior management team.\"\nCity To Address Concerns Over CP Station\nRecent reports raised conflict of interest concerns involving a senior city staff member and city councillor in regards to ownership of Mudtown Station.\nDistraught and fighting back tears, Director of Community Services Pam Coulter explained her role in the city's lease negotiations with Mudtown Station and assured her family did not have an interest in becoming shareholders in the business during that process.\nCoulter says her family members first met with Mudtown Station operator Harold Kloeze in June and she immediately disclosed the potential private business interest to the city manager.\n\"Immediately, we sought a legal opinion in order to be sure that there was no conflict of interest,\" Coulter says. \"I immediately proceeded to excuse myself from further dealings with this file.\"\nCoun. Brian O'Leary, who is running for deputy mayor, also provided a statement to Bayshore Broadcasting to respond to reports implying a conflict of interest in his investment into Mudtown Station.\nO'Leary says he bought into the business some 17 months after negotiations concluded and the lease was signed between the city and Mudtown Station in April 2017.\n\"Any suggestion that I made this investment on the basis of confidential information, or that I was able to influence the negotiation of the lease before investing is patently false,\" O'Leary says in a statement. \"And I take great exception to my good name and reputation being attacked in this way.\"\n\"This is a good news story for our city and its residents -- one which I hope will be followed by many more successful public/private partnerships in our downtown,\" O'Leary continues. \"Which is why I am so dismayed that I have to be here today to address the false allegations against me and my family.\"\nThe city purchased the former CP Station in 2010 for $150,000 with the goal to find a tenant and lease the building as a catalyst to waterfront re-development.\nRitchie says the building sat from 2010-14 with signage on it indicating it was available for rent, and no offers were received for the property.\nAn RFP was issued in 2014 by the city and received two responses.\nThe city pursued and structured a lease deal with Dr. Greg Zoldy, who ended up walking away from a proposed 20-year agreement in 2016.\nThe city then posted another RFP for the lease of the CP Station and in April 2017 council approved a 15-year agreement with Mudtown Station to operate a brew-pub.\nIt was the lone bid entered.",

Jesus himself gave us the flu shot.\nUsing a verse from the Bible to make her point, Copeland said followers were already healed by Jesus' stripes, but for those who are dealing with the flu, she prayed for them.\nIn 2013, Eagle Mountain International Church, a church in Newark, Texas founded by the Copelands, came under fire after a measles outbreak was linked to members of their church.\n\"We know what's wrong with you\".\nCommentators showed mixed reactions, but several said she was inaccurately representing Christian teachings. \"Now, which do you want to do?\"\nCopeland suggested people attempting to avoid catching the flu repeat the mantra: \"I'll never have the flu\", and inoculating themselves with the word of God. \"Do you want to do that, or do you want to sit in here on a Saturday morning, hear the word of God, and let faith come into your heart and be healed?\"\nThe 2017-18 flu season has temporarily shut down school districts and sent many people to emergency rooms and urgent care centers.\n\"Sometimes people ask, 'If God's medicine works every time, why are there so many believers who are still sick?' There are two reasons\", Gloria Copeland wrote.\nOH police identified the two-year-old toddler found frozen on the porch of her Akron home on Friday, Feb. 2, as Wynter Parker .

        "raw_content": "Hurst Road, West Molesey\nThe Paddock, one of Molesey's newer pubs, stands on the north side of Hurst Road, on a part of what was Hurst Park Racecourse.\nOn Saturday 10 October 1962 the last bets were placed, the last starting gate sprung, and the last race run. The stable doors were locked and the punting public admitted no more. Soon all the equipment was sold off, gangs of carpenters and bricklayers moved on to the site, and terraces of suburban houses replaced grandstands and running rails.\nIt was in order to provide facilities for the hundreds of men and women who peopled these houses that the Paddock was erected, at a cost of some \u00a350,000, to the designs of Messrs Mayall Hart and Partners [117].\nThe pub was officially opened by Lord Willoughby de Broke, an official of the Jockey Club, on 10 April 1968. The ceremony being made particularly colourful by the arrival of an old-fashion brewer's dray drawn by a team of superb Suffolk Punches, brought all the way from their stables at Colchester for the occasion [118].\nThe pervading atmosphere of the pub, from its very name to the whole of the internal d\u00e9cor, thoroughly emphasises the \"horsey\" nature of the hallowed ground above which the inn rises. Horse racing had continued on Molesey Hurst, with but a short break for at least two hundred years, and probably for much longer than that.\nAs well as the usual swinging sign, the design incorporates a prominent white panel on which the figures of two graceful racehorses, in typical poses, being led by stable lads, stand out in relief. These sculptures were, being led by stable lads, stand out in relief. These sculptures were commissioned by Messrs Truman, the brewers, from Mr. Anthony Grey, and are fashioned out of fibreglass coated in bronze. At night the suite is back lighted by concealed neon tubes to form a strikingly effective silhouette.\nAnother interesting feature of the layout is the large external paved area, where customers may sit out at tables under colourful shades, and quaff their particular fancy in the open air. Providing a delightful and well-patronised facility during sunny days.",

        "raw_content": "UFO sighting, Norris, TN. 21 August 2016\nOn the evening of 21 August, 2016, I observed a number of unidentified flying objects. In total \u2013 four of them appearing as two pairs. The observing point was at 36o 12\u2019 09\u201d N; 84o 04\u2019 49\u201d W. The time was about 2100 LST.\nAt first two appeared in the northern sky (bearing about 30 deg) and moved to the south, appearing to be over Norris Lake. There was some cloud cover to the east, and the objects moved under the cloud. One of the pair moved to a very low altitude and moved slowly to the east where it was finally obscured by the trees surrounding my point of observation (bearing about 90 deg). The second of this first pair moved consistently to the south, eventually disappearing into the distant southern sky being obscured by my house (bearing about 135 deg).\nThe objects were identical. They were a collection of white lights surrounding a red light at what appeared to be the center. The white lights appeared to move quickly and intermittently \u2013 jerking; not as one would expect from a solid object moving on a path with uniform momentum. I do not think the central red light jerked. It is possible that the apparent motion of the white lights could have been due to rotation. My eyes were not good enough to be certain that rotation was involved.\nAfter these two disappeared from the field of view, another identical pair appeared from the north, again bearing 30 deg. These two dawdled across the northern sky. One appeared to describe a large circle before exiting near where it came from. The other moved to the south-east and then curved to the horizon, bearing about 90 deg.\nThe red lights were all centered in the array of white lights. At times, the outline of the structure appeared, but this was quite indistinct. The vehicles were certainly not regulation aircraft. The red light was a centerpiece, not a demarcation of a wingtip or some other aircraft feature. Rather than run for a camera, I stayed still so as to memorize what I was seeing.\nThere was no sound associated with any of the objects. The possibility that they were in some way like helicopters seems rather unlikely. At one stage, one of the objects appeared to descend very rapidly, but all such impressions remain simply impressions. The overall width of the objects appeared to subtend an angle of about 10% of the moon (which was not present on the night in question).\n\u00ab New Witness Video\nTriangular Craft Sighting \u00bb",

The computer-based assessments are the Smarter Balanced English language arts/literacy (ELA) and mathematics tests. The paper-pencil assessments include the science assessments - the California Standards Tests (CSTs) for Science, the California Modified Assessment (CMA) for Science, and California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA) for Science - and the optional Standards-based Tests in Spanish (STS) for Reading/Language Arts (RLA).\nIn California, most students in grades three through eight and grade eleven will participate in the annual Smarter Balanced tests, which include both ELA and mathematics content areas. These tests are administered online. A student may be exempted from taking the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments in three situations:\nIf the student is taking the California Alternate Assessments (CAAs);\nIf the student has been designated as an English learner and enrolled in school in the United States for less the 12 months may be exempted from the ELA portion of the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment; or\nIf the parent has expressed in writing that his or her student should be excluded from taking the summative assessments.\nThe California Alternate Assessments (CAAs) for English language arts and mathematics tests are individually administered to students in grades three through eight and grade eleven who have an individualized education program (IEP) that indicates the use of an alternate assessment on statewide assessments and who has a significant cognitive disability. All eligible students are required to participate in these new, online assessments in spring each year.\nCalifornia Standards Tests for Science\nThe California Standards Tests (CSTs) for Science are to be administered to students in grades five, eight, and ten.\nCalifornia Modified Assessment for Science\nThe California Modified Assessment (CMA) for Science is to be administered to students in grades five, eight, and ten who have an IEP. Assignment of the CMA for Science is made in the student's IEP only; a student's Section 504 plan is not to be used to assign a student to take the CMA for Science (although accomodations may be named in the Section 504 plan or in the IEP)\nCalifornia Alternate Performance Assessment for Science\nThe California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA) for Science is an individually administered performance assessment for students who are also taking the CAAs for ELA and mathematics.\nThe California English Language Development Tets (CELDT) is an assessment for English Learners (ELs). Federal guidelines for school districts that receive Title III funds require students to annually assess the English language proficiency of students whose primary language is other than English. The purpose of the CELDT assessment is to identify new students to the district who are ELs, to determine English proficiency, and to annually assess their progress towards becoming fluent English proficient. Initial CELDT testing for new students is given within 30 calendar days of the student's enrollment and annual CELDT testing occurs in the fall of each school year. Students cannot be opted out of taking the CELD assessment.\nHelp your children prepare for testing -\nParents can help by making sure their children attend school on testing dates (unless ill) and by sending them to school on time, with a good breakfast, a calm morning at home, and a good night's rest.",

        "raw_content": "Interview with Lt Gen. Patrick O\u2019Reilly: What is the future of Ballistic Missile Defence?\nNATO Operations, Touraj Riazi July 5, 2017May 29, 2018 Touraj Riazi\nTouraj Riazi had the great privilege of interviewing former director of the Missile Defense Agency Lt. General (Ret\u2019d) Patrick O\u2019Reilly. Lt. Gen. O\u2019Reilly enjoyed a lengthy and distinguished career in the Army where he occupied a variety of positions including Program Manager for the Directed Energy Programs, Patriot Missile PAC 3, THAAD, and the Ground based Midcourse Defense Program. Lt. Gen. O\u2019Reilly culminated his career with being appointed Director of the MDA from 2008-2012.\nDescribe opportunities in the future of BMDS (Ballistic Missile Defense System), specifically the integration of solid state lasers (SSL) with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV)?\nWe invested a lot in the terrestrial and sea based BMD systems. However, the opportunities of using UAV\u2019s as BMD platforms is what missile defense needs to leverage for the future.\nUAVs are flying higher and longer with larger payloads. This progress in aviation technology offers an exciting opportunity for missile defence. Not only from putting sensors up there, not only adding nodes to communication but UAVs also reduce the reliance on space based assets. And, space based assets- putting things up in space to do missile defence functions- are obviously the most expensive alternative.\nIf you look at future technology, orbiting systems that predictably circumnavigate the earth become more, and more, vulnerable over time as other countries develop anti-satellite technologies with greater and greater ranges. Space systems are by their nature expensive and there are sensors on board that need to be very accurate. I\u2019m not saying don\u2019t do it, but it\u2019s the most expensive option.\nI think we are approaching an era of leveraging the latest advancement in aviation which is UAVs. UAVs can fly predictable patterns or can fly using artificial intelligence. Thus, if you lose communications with them they are still preprogrammed to do what they are supposed to do.\nMost of BMDS components are dormant 99.9 % of their operating lives, so you could integrate BMDS functions with other functions that UAVs could do for the military, to support all the other military functions that UAVs do. So UAVs are very nice platforms for combining missile defence with other functions.\nAt the same time, we have learned from our experience with lasers that Solid-State Lasers (SSLs) are becoming more powerful and compact. And what is really important, is that the higher you fly, and UAVs give you that opportunity, the thinner the earth\u2019s atmosphere is and less complex beam propagation systems are required.\nYou know, when we build ABL (Airborne Laser System) a large part of the investment and development of the laser system on that 747 was in the optical system. And that was an optical system designed to very precisely track and compensate for the earth\u2019s atmosphere at the altitudes it flew. But, if you fly at much higher altitudes, then you do not have as much of the atmosphere to deal with and you can use much smaller beam pointing and atmospheric compensations systems.\nSo the concept of ABL was developed in the 90\u2019s and it\u2019s predecessors were developed in the 70\u2019s and 80\u2019s. Since then, UAVs have been developed to fly extremely high for long periods of time.\nNow that we have high altitude UAVs, on-board laser beams can propagate farther and with less power required to propagate through a thin atmosphere. A vulnerability of a long range offensive missile is that if it\u2019s going to be effective, it needs to fly accurately. However, the tolerances for an offensive missile are not as strict as a defensive missile, which has to hit an object the size of a warhead. If you\u2019re trying to hit a power plant or a military base, you have a much bigger target and the missile doesn\u2019t have to be as precise, but you still need to fly with some level of precision.\nIf you\u2019re trying to destroy a missile with a laser, which we have done, a lot of power is needed to destroy the missile. However, if you are trying to disrupt, interfere, or harass, a missile so that the offence knows it does not have the same confidence that the missile is going to strike the target they are shooting at, then you can use much lower power lasers.\nWhen you add all that up we are approaching a point today where we are looking at the releases of the amount of power that you read in the press releases for the SSL and their size.\nEqually important as the development of solid state lasers is the advancement in energy storage in the automotive and solar industries. They have invested billions of dollars in researching power storage and conditioning. The progress in those enabling capabilities allow one to conclude that technology is very close to allowing the integration of high-power SSL\u2019s with UAVs.\nI have no knowledge of any specific SSL or UAV program, but just by looking at the status of technologies attractive for integrating BMDS packages on UAVs, it is easy to conclude that they would provide very cost-effective anti-missile technology. Additionally, you don\u2019t have geopolitical issues if you are only deploying UAVs to patrol the earth\u2019s oceans and costal areas where if you previously had to deploy ships, or if you had to deploy ground based BMDS, and negotiate treaties with countries, it becomes very expensive.\nThis goes back to some of my earlier comments about how do you calculate the cost of a missile defence system, and I think UAVs and modern technologies- not only of lasers, but energy storage work that\u2019s going on from the commercial side- have taken us to a point where it\u2019s extremely attractive to pursue the integration of UAV and BMDS technologies.\nIs diminishing the reliance on space based technologies and radars like the STSS a function of developing technologies in both aircraft and lasers or was reducing reliance on space a specific driver of those developments?\nI\u2019m unaware that it was a driver. It\u2019s more of an emerging opportunity. When you look over the past 20 years at missile defence technologies, and the architecture, UAVs never played a prominent role. During my service in government we had a tendency to attribute our military technical progress with what we chose to invest in. That is a very narrow view. We have to open our aperture of consideration to technologies that somebody else developed for other purposes.\nThey constantly use the term dual purpose, but a lot of times that dual purpose was not readily recognized. And, frankly, the investments on the commercial side today are so much higher in technology than what the Pentagon does on the R&D side. If you\u2019re going to have the most cost effective BMDS possible, you really need to be investing as large an effort into harvesting technologies that were developed by somebody else for other commercial purposes because they really have eclipsed the work that DOD would have done.\nIndustrial lasers are driving the SSL development, it\u2019s not defence. It\u2019s the solar, the automotive industry, that\u2019s developing power storage, light weight, extremely high power density, and equally important power conditioning \u2013 which means you can precisely manage the on-board power and the software processors to enable the next generation of BMD. Obviously the commercial processor industry is investing by many orders of magnitude more than DOD (Department of Defence) in new R&D.\nSo I don\u2019t think the current focus on UAVs was intentionally done to reduce the reliance on space. I think it was more of we stumbled into it and realized we are under-investing in UAV applications. So, the decisions that have to be made are really about budget balance. How much are you going to invest in ground based, sea-based, space-based and aviation based lasers and sensors. It has to be a balance. But, the area that I think has had the least amount of investment in over the past decade, compared to its technical progress, is UAVs.\nWhat are your views on mobile laser platforms, in sea or space, and do you think it would be preferable to have space based, ground based, or air to air power supplying units?\nSpace launch capabilities are continually being developed and the cost continues to come down. Even at their most optimistic cost, its an order of magnitude more expensive to put power systems in space instead of on aviation platforms. Likewise, aviation platforms are much more expensive than ground-based ones. So I think the real consideration goes back to basic science and it\u2019s the advantages of operating in the earth\u2019s high atmosphere.\nIf you\u2019re operating a laser on the ground, you unfortunately do need a tremendous amount of power. I see lasers being deployed on ships today and that makes perfect sense because you have a big ship engine, with a lot of power, to power the laser. However, the beam propagation distances are not that great because the laser has to burn through the earth\u2019s dense low atmosphere.\nThick atmospheres also scatters a laser beam, so you need to incorporate adaptive optics, and all the tricks that we have learned over the years, so that the beam is perfectly focused at the intended point, in the path of the beam over a great distance. The use of adaptive optical to accomplish that requirement are well known and unclassified.\nJust look at what astronomy has gone through in the past decades. The idea of forming beams at a great distance is basic physics. The nice thing about UAVs are, if you can get them high enough, they have the advantages of operating in a thin atmosphere, but they don\u2019t have the expense or vulnerability of operating in space. That vulnerability is not just a threat having a new weapon that could shoot down our satellites with lasers and things. I\u2019m referring to the vulnerability that was just demonstrated a decade ago when the Chinese shot down their own satellite and caused it to orbit large debris fields.\nThe moving \u201cGravity\u201d that was built around that debris pattern is a real threat to all objects in space. So, I\u2019m not saying UAVs are a replacement for space based components, I\u2019m just saying that these advantages justify a lot investment, and this has to be taken into the calculus of determining how much is invested in different BMD platforms.\nAre you in favour of having a UAV powered by artificial light as opposed to a solar powered UAV, given the differences in proven capability today, especially their sustainability and altitude requirements?\nThe number one focus from the technology point of view, is power density storage. How much power can you store in a small device?\nThe investments that Tesla has made have really been advantageous. They not only showed you could have an ability to store power that is orders of magnitude greater than it was in previous decades; but, also when they\u2019re mass produced, you have great reliability and cost reduction. So dense power storage has become a real catalyst in opening up high powered systems to be placed on UAVs because they\u2019re small.\nNow the next question is, how do you provide that power to the storage device? You can either charge it up on the ground or you have the alternative, where advancements have been made in solar lined aircraft where all the space on the wings is exposed to the sun. Then the question becomes what is that rate of power charging and how much time do you have in order to sufficiently reach a charge? I don\u2019t know the answers to that. But I do know we are making great progress.\nWhat also needs to be taken into account is what is the total amount of charge / power you need, which directly relates to how many times you can shoot your laser. And if you want to be able to shoot your laser 40 or 50 times then you calculate the amount of power you need but are you going to do it all at once or can you trickle charge slowly? It doesn\u2019t make sense to me why you would not send up UAVs that are fully charged, but then the question is can they recharge themselves.\nThis is where I think we are with cutting edge technology today on the commercial side. I\u2019m not cognizant of all of the military projects that are going on but I do believe that it appears reasonable that this area is where you want to be investing. To get as much of a benefit as you can from the commercial investments and breakthroughs that have been made in power storage.\nI do want to emphasize though, that I was not stating you would send up an aircraft that has no charge with it. What I\u2019m saying is, you would fully charge those batteries and the size of those batteries would be driven by how many times you expect to shoot your laser before needing to recharge. And I don\u2019t know the answers to that, but again, where we are venturing into this conversation is the great opportunity there is for these types of technologies to be applied today without significant development. It\u2019s just harvesting and leveraging what has been done in industry, as long as you can convince industry to participate.\nCan you explain what potential utilities of such a program would be, short of its conceived end? So assuming you don\u2019t fully arrive at a stage where you could fully integrate UAV\u2019s and SSL, do you think there is a benefit, in terms of communications or surveillance, in having a high altitude aircraft that is pretty much sedentary due to power requirements?\nWell it is more of a platform that could perform any of the missile defence functions. You could also place command and control on board these UAVs.\nAnd, as I said before, any BMDS is dormant for large periods of time. So the smartest application would be to integrate various missile defence functions, including C3, sensors and other functions that the military would need. For example, you could put a system that might be there for sea navigation purposes, atmospheric sensing, or other communications that have functions other than just purely missile defence.\nI think that as missile defence continues to grow, one way of reducing the cost of missile defence is to integrate it with other military functions so that you\u2019re not building single dedicated systems that only performs a missile defence function.\nPhoto: Lt.

During the operation, 393 SASSA and bank cards as well as 37 identity books were seized. Four (4) criminal cases were opened and we are hopeful that there will be swift prosecution of these matters.\nThe focus of this kind of operation is primarily to identify credit providers who are unlawfully retaining pension cards, bank cards, identity documents and personal identity numbers (PIN) of their clients as surety. \u201cRetaining these cards is a contravention of the National Credit Act (NCA) and it is a criminal offence\u201d, says Jacqueline Peters Manager of the Investigations and Enforcement Department at the National Credit Regulator.\nPeters says this operation will not be the last of its kind in the region. SASSA and the Office of the Consumer Protector will continue to work together to root out predatory practices and to ensure that all credit providers, no matter where they conduct business, comply with the provisions of the National Credit Act. \u201cThe exploitation of vulnerable and unsuspecting consumers by credit providers will not be tolerated,\u201d added Peters.\n\u201cConsumers are cautioned to avoid credit providers who require them to hand over their identity books or SASSA cards as it is a criminal offence and it is usually coupled with reckless lending and overcharging\u201d, concludes Peters.",

        "raw_content": "ENL Wiki \u00bb Contractionary Economics \u00bb Evolution of Contractionary Economics\nThe time element in the development of contractionary economics requires consideration.\nThe theory's initial appearance must occur at the start of an economy's transformation in order to drive this process forward. At this early stage, the economy is still predominantly capitalist, and the functional framework will have to reflect the realities of the system's structure, incentives, and institutions.\nAs economic transformation proceeds, however, the economy will change in significant ways. For example, the first steps towards sustainable well-being will likely include the curtailment of corporate rights and the placement of tight restrictions on advertising.\nThese modifications will dramatically alter the economic landscape, which means that many of the components of the original functional framework will have to be modified as well. Such theoretical shifts will likely continue for years, until the logic of capitalism has been entirely supplanted and the corresponding institutional changes have been made.\nRapid theoretical evolution in the functional realm is a sharp departure from the past. Although a capitalist economy undergoes changes, it does so in relatively minor ways: new technologies, product mixes, trade relationships, etc.\nThe logic that drives the system, and the structural and institutional support for this logic, are fairly stable. Thus, while economic theory has from time to time innovated superficially, as with rational expectations and game theory, it is otherwise fixed in its principles, tools, and methods.\nThe development of contractionary economics will radically upset this longstanding stability.\nAlthough much of the theoretical change will occur in the functional framework, the guiding framework \u2014 whether progressive or conservative \u2014 is not immune to modification. In its initial version it will be untested in the real world, and its performance will have to be observed carefully as objectives are set and results are evaluated.\nIt may turn out that some of the framework\u2019s analytical methods are insufficiently refined, or that certain concepts and tools are missing. It will certainly be true that the information it needs to evaluate economic results will not be fully available. While a great deal is known about current economies, this knowledge is usually expressed in purely capitalist terms.\nIn the case of ENL, for example, an entirely new statistical infrastructure will have to be constructed to express economic outcomes in terms of human health and ecological limits.\nAlthough considerable research has been done in both areas in recent decades, in most cases the findings are general and provide only a crude quantitative basis for economic guidance. A high priority will have to be placed on research that satisfies ENL\u2019s data requirements.\nA final comment: the development of contractionary economics has much in common with organic change. The latter rejects what is clearly destructive in capitalism but seeks to retain any features that may be useful in the drive towards sustainable well-being.1\nSimilarly, contractionary economics rejects economic ideas that are destructive to humankind and nature, but retains those concepts, tools, and analytical methods that are conducive to contractionary goals. The shared perspective is this: don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.\nIn other words, despite any revulsion we may feel towards a system or theory, we must retain our intellectual balance and discard only those elements that cause the damage we perceive. Anger is a fine motivator, but it has no place in either theoretical development or strategic thought.\n<prev linear thread (no next)\n1.

        "raw_content": "Three Small Business Tips For Moms Work From Home\nSo you\u2019ve taken the plunge and decided to work at home. Fabulous! You can save money on transportation and dry cleaning. You can also save money on the cost of care where you will not be away from home as much. For the home business to succeed, you need to set up some basic rules, both for your customers and your family. No two families are the same as all the rules will be different. However, here are some basic tips that every mom with a work from home business should consider implementing in order to be productive in her business.\n1. Hold a family meeting to discuss how things work.\nSince this is going to affect the whole family, it is important that everyone has some sort of input. Now it is obvious that every request can not be honored (eg eight years business will be up until midnight on a school night). What is important is that you at least get to hear the concerns of all to work from home.\n2. Define the work plan.\nIf your children are school age, it may mean that you do all the work you need to have complete quiet while the children are in school. If they are too young for school, you may have to plan most of your work for nap time, and when they go to sleep for the night. Whatever plan you choose, it is important to let children know that there are certain times of the day that mom has to work. Make sure your children understand that they will have some time to spend with you after you have finished working.\n3. Lay out your expectations.\nIt is important that everyone knows what their roles are. Will he be expected to do more chores around the house? When will the kids get to watch TV and play video games? How loud can be kids while you\u2019re working? Kids are supposed to be hidden when you have clients over? This may seem insignificant now, but they will be a big deal later.\nWorking from home can be a great win-win situation. It is a win for the mother because she is able to generate income family needs. It is a win for the kids because they get to see her mother more rather than spend twelve hours a day care. Set some basic rules at the beginning of the business can help you become a successful speed.\nBusiness travel is becoming more and more common, as companies grow so does the need for their owners / employees to travel.

        "raw_content": "Benefits of weight loss spread within couples in 'ripple effect,' study suggests\nWhen one-half of a couple embraces good health, there\u2019s a higher likelihood that the other half will, too, a recent study suggests.\n\u201cThe concept is called the ripple effect and it means that weight loss interventions delivered to one spouse have unintended, but positive benefits on the other spouse,\u201d said study co-author Amy Gorin, associate professor in psychological sciences at the University of Connecticut. \u201cThat is, spouses that are not actively involved in [a diet] treatment also tend to lose weight.\u201d\nGorin and colleagues noted online on Feb. 1 in the journal Obesity that weight within couples tends to be proportionally equivalent between partners at the outset.\nCouples committed to health tend to enhance each other\u2019s motivation and adherence to diet and exercise-related behaviours. But the opposite is also true. If one partner becomes obese during the course of the relationship, there is a good chance the other will too, the authors note.\nThe new findings suggest, however, that just because one partner isn\u2019t actively receiving weight loss guidance doesn\u2019t necessarily mean he or she won\u2019t reap the same rewards as the health-seeking significant other.\nGorin\u2019s team studied 128 co-habiting hetero and homosexual couples over a six-month period. Most couples were married. Everyone in the study was overweight or obese.\nHalf of the couples were assigned to have one partner participate in the Weight Watchers diet program. That partner received six months of free access to in-person meetings and online tools including self-monitoring of food intake, activity and weight. A Weight Watchers support staff member was also available 24/7 if needed.\nIn each of the remaining couples, one partner received a weight-loss handout with basic information on healthy eating, physical activity and weight management strategies. Access to either program went to the person most interested in weight loss, while the other partner, irrespective of group, received nothing at all.\nThree months into the study, \u201ctreated\u201d partners in the Weight Watchers group had lost more weight than treated partners in the self-guided group. By six months that difference had disappeared.\nResearchers were more interested, however, in how \u201cuntreated\u201d partners fared. And in fact, the untreated partners lost weight, too, no matter which group they were assigned to.\nNon-dieting spouses lost an average of 1.30 kilograms (nearly 3 pounds ) at three months and 2.02 kilograms (about 4.5 pounds) at month six, regardless of group. What\u2019s more, by six months, 32 per cent of non-dieting spouses in both groups had lost at least 3 per cent of their initial body weight, co-author Gary Foster told Reuters in an email.\nFoster is chief scientific officer at Weight Watchers International, which funded the study. Three per cent was the researchers\u2019 minimum for \u201csuccessful\u201d weight loss, based on obesity management guidelines.\n\u2018There\u2019s power in community when it comes to healthy behaviour change,\u2019 study\u2019s co-author Gary Foster says. (Getty Images/iStockphoto)\n\u2018Power in community\u2019\n\u201cWhat is most interesting to me about the study is that \u2026 they found the interventions were equally effective,\u201d said Megan Lewis, director of Patient and Family Engagement Research Program Center for Communication Science RTI International, who was not involved in the study.\n\u201cThe fact that the study found a minimally intensive, self-guided intervention was as effective as the Weight Watchers intervention suggests that the benefits of weight loss can spread within couples, and (individuals) may not need expensive or structured programs for this benefit to occur,\u201d she told Reuters by email.\nThe researchers observed that weight-loss trajectories between the \u201ctreated\u201d and untreated partners were highly correlated. For example, if one couple member showed a higher likelihood of losing weight, so did the other member. The reverse was also true.\nThe bottom line is that weight loss efforts spread and have effects beyond the individual.\n\u201cThere\u2019s power in community when it comes to healthy behaviour change,\u201d Foster said.\nStill, more work needs to be done to fully understand this ripple effect.\n\u201cWe need more research to understand how to harness the power of behaviour change within households,\u201d Gorin said by email. \u201cSpouses clearly influence each other\u2019s weight-related choices. But how can we leverage this within interventions to produce greater and more sustained changes?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "GOP hopes to capitalize on Latino disappointment with Obama\nThe reason: Obama has yet to do anything on a comprehensive overhaul of immigration laws as he promised\nWASHINGTON -- As one of the first Latinos in the nation to endorse Barack Obama, Democratic state Sen. Gilbert Cedillo of Los Angeles campaigned hard for the president, but he's disappointed now.\nThe reason: Obama has yet to do anything on a comprehensive overhaul of immigration laws, as he promised to do when he ran for president.\n\"I think he's in danger of breaking the spirit of solidarity and hope,\" Cedillo said. \"More than a broken promise, it's the danger of breaking people's sense of hope in the Latino community.\"\nWhile the president carried the Latino vote by large margins 15 months ago, many Republicans are out to capitalize on Latino dissatisfaction with Obama and Washington's Democratic leaders. They think that could help them immensely in the 2010 elections.\nRepublican candidates will gain ground from Latinos once Latinos realize \"that what the Democrats offer is just a bunch of empty promises,\" said Hector Barajas, a communications consultant for the California State Senate Republican Caucus.\nHe noted that the president spent only about 10 seconds on immigration at the very end of his State of the Union speech last month. Barajas said the issue had been particularly hot on Spanish talk radio ever since Obama gave that speech.\n\"It's what didn't happen,\" Barajas said. \"I mean, he spent more time talking about gays in the military than he did about providing some immigration reform plan.\"\nThe White House said that it remained committed to passing a comprehensive overhaul of immigration laws.\nWhite House spokesman Adam Abrams said the president wanted to sign a bill that strengthened border enforcement and cracked down on employers \"who exploit undocumented workers to undercut American workers.\" He also said the president wanted to resolve the status of 12 million people who were in the U.S. illegally, \"that they should have to register, pay a penalty for breaking the law and meet other obligations of legal immigrants such as paying taxes, or leave the country.\"\n\"The president told members of both parties that if they can fashion a plan to deal with these problems, he is eager to work with them to get it done,\" Abrams said.\nJaime Regalado, the executive director of the Pat Brown Institute, a nonprofit public-policy center at California State University, Los Angeles, said Democrats, particularly the president, faced \"a scary situation.\"\n\"It's really a colossal hassle for the administration, that there is so much impatience from so many groups - including Latinos - that are hell-bent on having an immigration reform package in 2010, an election year,\" he said. \"It's difficult in any season in any year, but this is a very precarious year for Obama.\"\nRegalado said Republicans were exploiting the issue \"with good reason,\" because it was a no-win situation for Democrats: They lose votes from Latinos if they don't come up with a comprehensive solution to immigration, or they lose votes from more conservative members of their base if they do.\n\"It's fraught with political peril,\" he said. \"There's no question about that.\"\nCedillo, who campaigned for Obama in California, Texas and Nevada and debated on his behalf on Spanish radio, said the president and Democratic leaders needed to show Latinos that they were committed to them \"not only during the campaign, but after the election.\"\nHe predicted that Latinos will provide the determining vote in every upcoming presidential election. Obama was hugely popular among Latinos, receiving 75 percent of the more than 10 million votes they cast in the 2008 presidential election.",

        "raw_content": "Town: Fanwood, New Jersey\nWilliam W. Austin Jr. was born in 1938, in Fanwood. Billy attended Scotch Plains - Fanwood High School from 1950 to 1955. He grew to a height of 5'11\" and tipped the scales at 165 pounds. He was a quick and clever open-field runner, and rugged for his size. As a senior, he was the Raiders' top football and lacrosse player. Billy was not heavily recruited by major schools in either sport. He decided to attend Rutgers on an ROTC scholarship.\nBilly first turned heads on the 1955 freshman squad. He wasn\u2019t a standout because of his speed or size, but he had an uncanny ability to make tacklers miss by changing speed and direction, spinning and twisting out of their grasp\u2014classic lacrosse moves. He also had a strong and accurate arm\u2014an important attribute in the team\u2019s single wing offense. Additionally, the qualities that made Billy a standout on offense made him a superb pass defender.\nAs a member of the Scarlet Knights varsity in 1956, Billy led the team with 380 rushing yards and was second in passing with 230. He accounted for a total of 6 touchdowns as the Scarlet Knights went a disappointing 3\u20137 under new coach John Stiegman. The team improved to 5\u20134 in 1957, with Billy leading the squad in passing and rushing for 946 yards and 10 touchdowns on fewer than 200 carries. He also served as the team\u2019s punter and ran back kickoffs, and ranked second in the nation in total offense.\nBilly\u2019s senior season saw the Scarlet Knights rise to #20 in the national rankings, while Billy himself was team captain and in the running for the Heisman Trophy. Playing much of the season with a broken left hand, he threw for 8 touchdowns and ran for 15 more on an average of more than 5 yards per carry behind an superb offensive line. He was named an All-American by the Associated Press.\nIn his final college game, against Columbia, Billy was almost unstoppable. He scored 34 points in a 61\u20130 drubbing of the Lions, to be named \u201cBack of the Week\u201d by the Associated Press\u2014over Billy Cannon, Don Meredith and Dick Bass. He earned the honor despite playing only 20 minutes. A week earlier, his hand kept him out of the game against the Quantico Marines. Rutgers lost the contest 13\u201312, denying them their first perfect season and possibly costing Billy the Heisman. All told, Billy ran and passed for more than 3,000 yards in three varsity seasons, and accounted for 42 touchdowns. He was also one the top defensive backs in the East, picking off 13 passing in three seasons.\nBilly was also the Scarlet Knights\u2019 best lacrosse player, earning honorable All-America mention twice.\nThough not considered a pro prospect, Billy was picked in the late rounds of the 1959 draft by the Washington Redskins. He had a three-year Air Force commitment to honor, which effectively ended any chance at an NFL career. He went into business after his stint in the military and became a successful entrepreneur and executive, including CEO of the Raleigh Bicycle Company. One of his sons, Kent, was a quarterback for Ole Miss in the 1980s and went on to have a solid career in the Canadian Football League. After coaching at Cornell, he became head coach and GM of the CFL\u2019s Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2013.\nIn 1988, Rutgers announced the formation of its Athletics Hall of Fame. Billy was in the inaugural class, along with eight other legendary athletes. He passed away at age 78 in 2015.",

        "raw_content": "Patrick Manning Kerney was born December 30, 1976 in Trenton. Patrick was one of six kids. He grew up across the Delaware River in Yardley, but attended the Princeton Day School through the ninth grade. He began playing lacrosse in grammar school and became addicted to the sport. He didn\u2019t pull on football pads until the fall of his seventh grade year.\nPatrick went away to boarding school starting in 10th grade, to the Taft School in Watertown. Taft had a fine athletic tradition. While Patrick was there, two Olympians\u2014Allison Mleczko and Tammy Lee Shewchuk\u2014attended the school. So did James Driscoll, a member of the 2001 Walker Cup golf team.\nPatrick was very tall, but a little too skinny for the football coach\u2019s taste. He bulked up enough to be an impact player at defensive end his junior year, and by his senior season Patrick was team captain. Patrick was also one of the best prep school wrestlers in the state. At 6'5\" he was a handful in both sports. But he still weighed under 200 pounds, thus it was as a lacrosse player that Patrick garnered the most interest from college recruiters.\nPatrick accepted a lacrosse scholarship from the University of Virginia in 1995 with the understanding that he could play football. He was a starting defenseman on the lacrosse team for two years before turning to football full-time. In 1996, the Cavaliers reached the NCAA Championship Game against Princeton, but lost 13\u201312 in overtime. Now close to 6'6\" and weighing 235 pounds, Patrick was the guy lacrosse coach Dom Starsia joked that he \u201cwanted getting off the bus first.\u201d\nAs a senior defensive end, Patrick helped the Cavaliers earn a Top 20 national ranking and a trip to the Peach Bowl. He led the ACC in sacks that season with 15, and finished with 45 for his college career. He lost the ACC Defensive Player of the Year award by a single vote to his teammate, Anthony Poindexter.\nIn 1999, Patrick was selected by the Atlanta Falcons at the end of the first round. He won the starting job at left defensive end in 2000, and in 2001 had a breakout year with 12 sacks. The Falcons tweaked their defense in 2004 to make better use of Patrick\u2019s skills, and he responded with a Pro Bowl performance. He had 66 tackles, batted down 9 passes, and had 13 sacks. Atlanta went 11\u20135 and went to the playoffs as Patrick earned Second-Team All-Pro honors.\nPatrick was a classic left defense end. He had the strength to rush the quarterback and the quickness and reactions to stop the run. He was a relentless pursuer.\nIn 2007, Patrick was a free agent. He signed a $37 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks and was second in the NFL with 14.5 sacks in his first season with the club. He was named a First-Team All-Pro and went to his second Pro Bowl. Patrick battled upper body injuries in the final years of his career, including torn triceps, torn pectoral muscles, and two shoulder injuries that required surgical repair. Patrick called it a career after the 2009 season. He finished with 82.5 sacks.",

        "raw_content": "Generals J.E.B. Stuart, Fitzhugh Lee, and Major John Pelham\nFairfax Courthouse, Virginia - December 1862\nNot wishing to rest on his laurels after the success of the battle of Fredericksburg, General J.E.B. Stuart planned a raid to disrupt Federal supply lines, cut telegraph communication, and force General Ambrose Burnside to weaken his position on the Rappahannock by sending countering forces. Other benefits of Stuart's raid would be to keep his men sharp and active and well supplied with captured stores.\nThe column headed out the day after Christmas with 1800 cavalrymen and four artillery pieces. As was usual with Stuart's raids, the cavalry covered many miles and had a number of small successful engagements where enemy soldiers, wagons, and equipment were captured. On the road to the town of Occoquan, Stuart's scouts detected two regiments of Federal cavalry setting up an ambush in the woods along the road. Stuart ordered General Fitzhugh Lee (Robert E. Lee's nephew), and the First Virginia cavalry to ride over the force and clear the woods. Without a moment's hesitation the 1st Virginia roared forward overcoming the surprised Federals and captured 100 of the fleeing Federal troops. Continuing the pursuit, Fitzhugh Lee and his men chased the Federals through the icy waters of Selectman's Ford. The ford was \"narrow, rocky, and very difficult\" to cross, and to everyone's amazement, Major John Pelham was able to drive his guns through the ford which was said to have been impassable by wheel. Arriving at the deserted Federal camps, Stuart's men carried off anything of value and burned the rest.\nAfter regrouping Stuart's cavalry arrived after dark at Burke's Station on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, and took over the telegraph office. General Stuart listened to his own telegraph operator describe the buzzing hornet's nest of the Federals communicating with each other on how to catch \"the rebel raiders.\" Typical of General Stuart's audacious personality, he then sent his own message to the Federal commanders, complaining that the poor quality of Union mules was such that they were incapable of pulling all the supplies that Stuart had captured. Stuart attached his signature to the message, and decided that since the enemy now knew his position it was time to move. Figuring the Federals would assume his force would head south, Stuart and his men headed north to Fairfax Courthouse to surprise his opponent once again.\nAt Fairfax Courthouse Stuart's luck changed as their column began to take fire from a large Federal force waiting in ambush. But Stuart's men did not return fire, puzzling the Federal troops. A Federal soldier under a white flag of truce was sent to ask if the unknown force was friend or foe. One of Stuart's men sent to meet the soldier advised that the following morning he would have an answer to his question. Stuart ordered enormous campfires to be lighted and used as a screen as he and his men slipped away and escaped during the wintry night.",

        "title": "Motivation: Your Thoughts Create Your Brain \u2013 Part 1",
        "raw_content": "Ray Kurzweil, Inventor, Futurist discussed advancement in the ability of science to observe the brain. \u201cWe can [now] see your thoughts create your brain. That\u2019s key to the secrets of its operation, that we actually create the connections that constitute the hierarchy of the neocortex from our own thoughts.\u201d What is new is that we can actually \u201csee\u201d the process taking place.\nKurzweil\u2019s assertion does leave the mind wading about in a bowl of \u201cChicken or Egg Soup.\u201d There was, after all, a first brain cell and a first neuron in each of us. There must logically have been a first thought to generate a first neural connection. At this point, let\u2019s not worry about where that first thought came from. We\u2019d need a drink firmly in hand for that. But, if Kurzweil is correct, if thoughts do indeed \u201ccreate\u201d the brain\u2019s neural connections, it begs the question, \u201cAt what point does the first thought occur, and what was that thought?\u201d\nThe answer may well be found at the first point of self-awareness, that thought being entirely internal, separate and apart from any other beings, apart from and long before the ability to speak, the thought expressed only by oneself only to oneself as the realization, \u201cI am.\u201d This may be the foundation thought, a singularity in the mind from which all subsequent thoughts originate.\nIf thoughts truly do generate the connections in the neocortex, all thoughts following the \u201cI am\u201d realization must rush in at the speed of light. And science has observed neurons forming in the human infant at a phenomenal rate prior to birth. The senses that had existed before the \u201cI am\u201d, but which operated separately, disconnected from the \u201cI am,\u201d are now connected to the \u201cI am\u201d in a dynamic way. The connections proliferate exponentially as interaction with the environment generates thought.\nAt some point, the interactions between the sensory inputs from the environment and the \u201cI am\u201d generates the opening volley of core neural connections that form the initial latticework that becomes the foundation (but not the sole determinant) of future connection patterns in the neocortex. There must eventually be a second fundamental juncture that begins with the thought-word, \u201cTherefore.\u201d From that point, the brain begins to fine-tune itself according to the input it receives from the environment as well as in accord with its genetic instruction set.\nNo one would understand this moment of \u201cI am\u201d more acutely than a gestating woman who recognizes the approximate point at which an an unborn child is able to differentiate itself from its environment in utero. [1] Synaptogenesis, the formation of synapses between neurons in the nervous system, is lifelong. But there is an explosion of synapse formation during early brain development.\nSo, what\u2019s all this got to do with motivation of coworkers in an organizational environment\u2026or motivation of others in any environment, work, play or social? Kurtzweil distinguishes thoughts from the brain, also distinguishing the neural connectors from the thoughts that generate them. That gives us a clue about how to separate key components of the motivation process that we may sometimes confuse.\nWhen we attempt to motivate others, our first objective may be to achieve a momentary, transient, temporary state in a person, much like the momentary state of an engine when a spark ignition enlivens that engine. We may even refer to it as \u201cturning the key.\u201d With the right mix of elements (fuel, air, ignition source), we can start the combustion engine, breathing life into it, as it were, inspiring it. But neither the fuel, the air, nor the ignition constitute motivation, or movement.\nYou\u2019ll recognize the analogy of \u201cFive Frogs on a Log.\u201d Three of the frogs were inspired to jump off the log. How many frogs were left? The answer is five. They were inspired to do so. They didn\u2019t actually jump.\nMany have experienced such a moment at seminars, rallies, speeches or a staff meeting, returning home after an \u2018inspirational message,\u201d fully recognizing the importance of some course of action,, determined to undertake the journey.\nAn engine \u201cbecomes\u201d once it has been enlivened, just as a person is inspired, energized at the start of a motivation process. But there must be more, the next state to which we must aspire, the state for which the engine is purposed, that being to drive the system in which it resides to a result.\nContinue with us as Coaching Motivation \u2013 Your Thoughts Create Your Brain \u2013 Part 2 examines the crucial connection of \u201cI am\u201d to motivation.\nTags: brain coaching human managing motivate motivation Neuroscience purpose",

        "raw_content": "Tennis in the City\nFrom where to play to how to keep yourself in the game, here's a top five list of tennis hotspots in New York.\nBy Sara Sargent\n1. At night, overhead lights illuminate the action on eighteen gorgeous Har-Tru courts, providing players at the East River Tennis Club with an unobstructed view of the Manhattan skyline, including the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings. And if that's not enough of a draw, Doubbles, the club's outdoor bar and grill, serves seafood on the waterfront. The view, the courts, the dining\u2014plus an exercise facility and outdoor pool?

Looking to pick up some singles matches? Check out TennisTip.com, who provide a free Find a Partner Service for New York, so you don't have to be stuck with the same obnoxious showboater week after week. You fill out a form with your ability level, age, and where you'd like to play, and then you can search the site for similar players. It can feel a little like a blind dating service (If I wear a skirt, will it look like I'm trying too hard?), but unlike a real date, if it's not going well you don't have to talk to the person, and it's completely acceptable to punch volleys directly at his head.\n\u2022 tennistip.com\n3. As any tennis-loving tourist will attest, New York hotels rarely feature on-site tennis courts. Luckily, the Millennium UN Plaza Hotel offers accommodations where guests can stay and play. Located on the 39th Floor, the Millennium's single hard-court is free to hotel guests and open to others for a fee. Though court time in Central Park would be cheaper than the rates at this luxury hotel (which start at around $75), the convenience is unbeatable\u2014tennis anyone?\n\u2022 1 United Nations Plaza, 44th St. between First and Second Aves.; 212-758-1234 or 866-866-8086, millenniumhotels.com\n4. With a panoramic view of the New Jersey shoreline and the George Washington Bridge, the public courts at Riverside Park are a winning combination of atmosphere, affordability, and quality. Riverside's 10 red-clay courts are well-groomed, situated alongside the Hudson River, and enclosed by wind-screened fences, making them a hot commodity during the summer months. But before beating a path to the West side, remember that these courts, like all park courts, require a seasonal permit from the NYC Department of Parks. Tennis season runs from the first Saturday in April to the third Sunday of November, and permits cost $10 for juniors, $20 for senior citizens, and $100 for adults; $7 single-play tickets are also available. To get a permit, head to either The Arsenal (830 Fifth Ave. at 64th St.) Monday-Friday, from 9am-5pm, or Central Park Tennis Courts (Midpark near 96th St.); or call 212-360-8133.\n\u2022 Riverside Park, at 96th St.; 311, rcta.info\n5. For the eleven months of the year during which the USTA National Tennis Center is not used for USTA-sanctioned events (including the U.S. Open), the 33 outdoor and 9 indoor courts are open for public use. For $17-$51 an hour, players can hit on the Tennis Center's outlying courts where rising stars and juniors play during the Open (Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong Stadiums and the Grandstand Courts are not available). In addition to open court time, players also head to the Center for adults training programs ($72-$300), junior training camps ($80-$200), tournament training camps ($220-$275), adult training camps ($295), and private lessons ($80-$90)\u2014all of which are run by the USTA's professional teaching staff.

Cristopher thinks you should talk to Florian.\nHis behavior alienated his friends. This is an unusual policy. The dressmaker took Sanjib's measurements. My father is suffering from a cold. That was the intent. There's no reason to fix something that isn't broken. Why are you talking to us? He said that he was hungry.\nThe beggar was dizzy with hunger and fatigue. The ground beef was found to contain horse meat. Am I on time? It's Tollefsen you should be angry with. I had a long talk with her. Yes, it's true I've forgotten the world. Who cares about it but you? Luckily, you're there to save it!\nWhat could I say? They are not of above taking bribes. Please fill in the application form and send it back by November 2nd. I was going to do it myself. How do you read and write? More than an hour went by before the train started to move. Don't be alarmed. He's not hurt badly. Do you want to talk about it now?\nCan you imagine what that's like? Your face is red. Are you okay? Perhaps you have a fever? We've talked it over among ourselves. How far is too far?\nWho found him? Are you satisfied with the hotel? Refugees poured in from all over the country.\nJayesh is looking really good. I hope you're happy together. Hey, turn around. Loyd didn't choose the same thing Ross did. All at once the lights went out.\nJohan has lived in Boston since he was born. Gabriel is thoughtful, isn't he? My tooth is giving me unbelievable pain. Tell Piotr to give this to Griff. Some politicians are considered to have caused that incident.\nI was upset. His daughter is sick. And when the hourglass has run out, the hourglass of temporality, when the noise of secular life has grown silent and its restless or ineffectual activism has come to an end, when everything around you is still, as it is in eternity, then eternity asks you and every individual in these millions and millions about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. You're working too hard. Take it easy for a while. About 300 people were arrested. They adopted a new method of teaching English in that school. I'm surprised you called.

We'll go talk to Vern this afternoon. Do we have grated cheese?\nThe blue telephone is on the table. I don't want to marry a stupid man! I guess you don't really care. He may still be young, but he really is a reliable person. We're heading back your way.\nA cry arose from the crowd. This is the best book that I've ever read. Cut me some slack. We're going to have a great time. Although it was a popular movie, Out of Africa was more of a coffee-table movie than anything else. Jong doesn't want to talk about his private life.

Just don't break anything.\nPlease let him come at once. Edmond loves you as much as I do. The French and the English like drinking, but the latter prefer beer whereas the former go in for red wine. His business affairs are in good shape. I don't like people staring at me. Do you like to watch TV? You should stay away from Ping.\nSit near here. Ssi wanted to give Al another chance. A majority of two thirds is required to ratify an overture. I'm just a plain office worker.\nYou're both idiots. But when the morning's sun brings new day, I know all God's mercies will be renewed. Knowledge is not an end in itself. I went to college with them. I have a personal matter to attend to. Heather and John have been friends since high school.\nWilson handed Marcos a bottle of pills.

        "raw_content": "The Sea Grant Association, in conjunction with the House Oceans Caucus (chaired by Representatives Suzanne Bonamici (OR-1) and Don Young (AK-At-Large)), sponsored a congressional briefing titled, \u201cPreparing Coastal Communities for Change: Economic Resiliency, Fisheries, Coastal Erosion, Sea Level Rise, and Ocean Acidification.\u201d\nEnvironmental changes, including melting sea-ice, warming ocean, acidifying waters, and intensifying weather affect more than just the natural ecosystem. They threaten the prosperity of our economy, the stability of our coastal communities, the security of our food, and the health of our families. Hardships experienced as a result of a changing planet can be mitigated by understanding the problems, preparing communities, and planning ahead. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s National Sea Grant College Program (Sea Grant) does just that, supporting coastal communities through science and education.\nExperts from across the U.S. described Sea Grant\u2019s commitment to building resilient coastal communities through science and partnerships. The panel, composed of diverse sectors, agreed the planet, ocean, and Great Lakes are changing (e.g., warming, rising, acidifying), and it is imperative that coastal communities be prepared.\nDr. Robert Steneck (Professor of Oceanography, Marine Biology and Marine Policy, School of Marine Sciences, University of Maine) described the decreasing biodiversity in the Gulf of Maine since the 1600s. The observed shift from a predator-dominated ecosystem to a prey-dominated one is largely due to changing environmental conditions, such as warmer water favoring prey species like lobster. He explained that there are benefits of warming water, including increasing biodiversity and bringing in new species for potential fisheries. However, he cautioned that too much warming (over four degrees) could jeopardize existing fisheries, such as cod and lobster, and threaten the livelihoods of the community.\nThe impacts of ocean acidification have been heavily observed on the West Coast. Experts from Oregon and Alaska explained how research is crucial for adapting to and reducing the threat of ocean acidification on the fishing community. They touted Sea Grant\u2019s support of science and highlighted several community projects, including one training fishers on aquaculture and new technologies so they can adapt to catch and market price variations, another leveraging seaweed aquaculture for biofuel production and exploring improved vessel fuel efficiency to save fishers money and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and a third monitoring water conditions to inform shellfish aquaculture farms of ideal or hazardous growing conditions.\nMr. Andrew Struck (Planning and Parks Director, Ozaukee County) explained that the nation\u2019s freshwater coasts, the Great Lakes, are experiencing severe erosion, which threatens businesses, homeowners, and recreational users. He described how innovative mapping tools can help with zoning, site planning, and restoration.\n\u201cExplaining why changes like sea-level rise affects people across the country, not just our coastal communities, is so important.\u201d \u2013 Representative Suzanne Bonamici (OR-1)\n\u201cSea Grant allows conversations to happen by bringing diverse interests together.\u201d \u2013 Ms. Julie Decker (Executive Director, Alaska Fisheries Development Foundation)\n\u201cLouisiana is losing land [to erosion and sea-level rise] faster than any state and is on par with the worst in the world.\u201d \u2013 Mr. Pat Forbes (Secretary, Office of Community Development, Louisiana)\nScience Serving Communities\nResiliency Reaches All Corners Of The Coast Thanks To Sea Grant",

        "raw_content": "Olivia Cooke Interview for \u201cThe Signal\u201d\nQ: How has \u201cBates Motel\u201d changed the scope of your career?\nOLIVIA COOKE: Tons! If I hadn\u2019t got \u201dBates Motel\u201d, then I don\u2019t think I\u2019d be getting the movies that I\u2019m getting to do now. (It) has put me on a platform and it\u2019s become an industry darling and people love it and have been having really positive reactions to it. It\u2019s an interesting character as well. I\u2019m not playing the typical girl next-door, cheerleader thing. I\u2019m playing a real, authentic person and that\u2019s hard to find in other mediums. And people just seem to like me now, which is nice.\nQ: How did you react the first time you saw The Signal?\nOLIVIA COOKE: I was crying. It took my breath away. You\u2019re kind of physically and emotionally wrecked afterwards cause you\u2019ve gone on this trippy ride. (Beau Knapp\u2019s) character does this huge hulk smash and you don\u2019t know where he stands. Then you\u2019ve got me flying around into another realm. You\u2019re just left breathless. I was so proud of (Director William Eubank) and so proud of everyone. I couldn\u2019t of asked for a better outcome with this movie. Will is so amazing and so talented and for him to put this all together \u2013 he\u2019s going to do amazing things.\nQ: The budget for this movie was only 2 Million. Was it easy to see the director\u2019s vision during filming?\nOLIVIA COOKE: The film completely exceeded my expectations. But after watching Love, Will\u2019s first movie, I knew it was going to be visually impactful and beautiful. But being there, in a 120-degree heat, in the desert, you kind of can\u2019t see too far into the beautiful visionary extravaganza that it is now. So I was really surprised. He\u2019s made the impossible.\nQ: Any specific challenges shooting in the deserts of New Mexico?\nOLIVIA COOKE: I cannot handle heat. I\u2019m in LA right now and it\u2019s so hot. Everyone\u2019s like, \u201coh you can just wear jeans and t-shirts\u201d. But I\u2019m dripping in this weather. I\u2019m from England and we don\u2019t get heat like this! In the desert, I sweated in places I didn\u2019t know I could sweat from. And it\u2019s so hard to kind of remain ethereal and kind of semi-attractive so the other characters would even want to touch you or carry you around the desert. The make up lady was constantly powdering me and I was just so sorry, like I couldn\u2019t stop, I was like a waterbowl. And the altitude is really high in Albuquerque and my nose would start bleeding and I thought that wasn\u2019t so healthy. But it kind of added to the high stakes and you just kind of pushed your body past what it was feeling on the exterior.\nQ: You\u2019re British and your co-star Brenton Thwaites is Australian. Was there a particular line in the script that you found difficult to master in an American accent?\nOLIVIA COOKE: Me and Brenton were in the car, and I think I said \u201cmirror\u201d. Like, \u201cmeer-rawr\u201d. And Will was like, \u201cNo! It\u2019s meer-ror!\u201d And me and Brenton were cracking up. We got to know each other really, really well and Will became like a big brother to me. So there\u2019s a part in the film where I say, \u201cWhat is it? Where am I?\u201d and apparently I sound British in the film to Will. But there would be challenges. Like Will would get on set and hate what he wrote and would tell us to say what we wanted. And Brenton and I would be like, \u201cGreat, we just learned all of that in our American accents and now you want us to just say what we want? That\u2019s great!\u201d But only by being challenged, can you learn and be better.\nQ: There\u2019s a road trip element to the film. What artists do you think are essential for a great road trip mix?\nOLIVIA COOKE: Arctic Monkeys! But you know, when you\u2019re on a road trip, you need big, diva ballads to sing your heart out to. So Cher is good. Celine Dion is amazing. Adele, always. With road trips, you get very tired and I don\u2019t drive so it\u2019s always my friends driving. So you need tunes that everyone knows that you can belt at the top of your lungs.\nQ: You live in London but frequent the US. Do you have a favorite place in Los Angeles?\nOLIVIA COOKE: I went to Malibu for the first time. Someone was trying to teach me how to surf and it went horribly wrong. I got hit in the face with my surfboard. But after that, we went to this restaurant called \u201cThe Sunset\u201d and on the top floor, we got this panoramic view of the sunset that day. And we just saw tons and tons of whales just swimming by. Watching whales just swim by? You don\u2019t get that in England at all.\nThe Signal sets to blow your mind on June 13th.",

        "raw_content": "Viola won the best supporting actress Oscar for playing Rose, the beleaguered wife of Denzel Washington, in \u2018Fences\u2019.\nShe\u2019s flying high after her recent awards\u2019 success,\nbut Viola Davis hopes her audiences can see past the accolades to the real heart of her profession.\nWords by Jake Taylor.\nHelen Mirren, Maggie Smith, Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons \u2013 the list of actors who have won the prestigious Triple Crown of Acting is a veritable Who\u2019s Who of the industry\u2019s greatest talents. The pantheon of artists who have been awarded an Emmy, a Tony and an Oscar has just welcomed its latest inclusion: Viola Davis.\nDavis \u2013 who has long been considered one of Hollywood\u2019s finest assets \u2013 is the first black actress to join this roll call of thespian greats. Having secured nominations in the past for 2008\u2019s Doubt and 2010\u2019s The Help, her recent Academy Award win for Best Supporting Actress holds yet another layer of significance. For it was during the 2010 Broadway revival of August Wilson\u2019s play Fences alongside Denzel Washington that Davis began her march into Hollywood history with a Tony award.\nSeven years later, the film adaptation of Fences sees Davis star once again alongside Washington as protagonist Troy, with the latter also in the director\u2019s chair. On her second time around as Rose Maxson, the South Carolina-born star not only achieved that coveted spot in thespian folklore, but finally came to grips with a scene she had battled with unsuccessfully \u2018for 113 performances on stage.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t have final, complete comprehension of Rose: I didn\u2019t understand her,\u201d admits the 51-year-old. \u201cI didn\u2019t understand that journey, with her final scene. I did it hundreds of times, with rehearsals and stage performances, but I never understood the thought process. I always wanted that scene to be over. I could never make my peace with it\u201d\nAnd then, between the play and the movie, Viola became a mother, and the scene that had caused so much difficulty fell into place. \u201cI finally got it! I got that yearning and desire to teach my own child forgiveness and the release that it provokes. I want my child to know and understand forgiveness, and it was then and only then that I understood Rose needs her son to embrace that love.\u201d\nThe actress\u2019s journey hasn\u2019t been easy. When Davis was young, her family relocated to Rhode Island and lived in extreme poverty. That time in her life comes flooding back when she is honoured for her work on-screen, she says, and remains by her side even when she takes to the stage at an event as exuberant as the Academy Awards.\n\u201cWhen I have those moments, that\u2019s when I feel the most like that little girl from Central Falls, Rhode Island again,\u201d Davis explains. \u201cShe\u2019s always there in my mind, dreaming about a future \u2013 a big future that seemed so impossible. I had to dream big to distract myself from my surroundings, the rats in the room and the rats in the walls. I had to dream in order to get out of bed in the morning. Dreaming kept my spirit alive.\u201d\nThese memories of her tough upbringing still contradict the extravagant glitz and glamour of a professional career spent treading the red carpets of Tinseltown, illuminated in the flashbulbs of the world\u2019s press, no matter how many awards Davis has seen her name inscribed on over the years.\n\u201cI feel like I detach myself from things like that,\u201d she says of the awards shows and the various high-profile events that her celebrity status entails. \u201cIt\u2019s part of me for an hour and then it disappears. I appreciate it so much, but I can\u2019t hold on to that for too long,\u201d she says, philosophically.\n\u201cSelling myself on a red carpet is in a sense equal to the quality of the roles that I get, because my popularity equates to the level of roles that I get. And I hate that because I came from the theatre and I work really well in the theatre, I don\u2019t fit into the Hollywood mould \u2013 never have, never will. I remember once I chose a dress for an event that I liked and that fit me and didn\u2019t make me feel big. And then someone said, \u2018Viola, for this event you\u2019re going to, you have to wear a major designer\u2019. I just sigh, I really do. It has absolutely nothing to do with being an actor.\u201d\nThough the latest Oscars ceremony may have been marred by a high-profile Best Picture blunder, it would be remiss of the industry not to take note of Davis\u2019 impassioned and emotional speech that implored her colleagues to \u201cexhume the stories of those people that dreamed big and never saw those dreams to fruition, people who fell in love and lost\u201d. It was a plea that cut through the fa\u00e7ade of the event and to the heart of the talent that has seen Davis deservedly make history. Though she\u2019s quick to point out that without the company of her partner, actor Julius Tennon, and their daughter Genesis, she couldn\u2019t have made it from that rat-infested Rhode Island apartment to the stuff of acting legend.\n\u201cBy going home, that\u2019s how I decompress,\u201d she explains. \u201cI hear these actors who carry the load and the burden of the entire shoot or the entire run of the show alone. If that works for them \u2013 and it really does for some \u2013 that\u2019s fine, but I can\u2019t do that. Going home to my family, to my husband, that\u2019s what clears my mind and brings me back.\u201d\nAnd in a world where social media and the tabloid press have served to heighten the appeal of award ceremonies, the indomitable Davis seeks only to bring people\u2019s attentions back \u2013 via electrifying performances \u2013 to the art\u2019s origins: the stage and the screen.\n\u201cThese celebrity events are the ridiculous side of our job, but it\u2019s the side of our job that people have embraced as being a part of our job, or central to our job,\u201d she concludes. \u201cBut they\u2019re not. Nobody understands what it is that we do anymore. Because what we do \u2013 it\u2019s something divine. It\u2019s a blessing to be able to explore our characters emotionally, to understand what makes us human, and to release it into the world.\u201d",

        "title": "Jerry Pinkney - Our White House | Looking In, Looking Out",
        "raw_content": "A native of Philadelphia, Jerry Pinkney studied at the Philadelphia College of Art (now the University of the Arts) where, in 1992, he received the Alumni Award. He has been illustrating children\u2019s books since 1964, illustrating over one hundred titles. His books have been translated into sixteen languages and published in fourteen countries, and he has been the recipient of a Caldecott Medal, five Caldecott Honors, and five New York Times \u201cBest Illustrated Books.\u201d He has received five Coretta Scott King Awards, and four Coretta Scott King Honor Awards. Furthermore, he has received numerous awards for his body of work. In 2003, he received an Honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University; in 2010, the Doctorate of Fine Arts, honoris causa from the Pennsylvania College of Art and Design, Lancaster, PA; and in 2012, an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from the Bank Street Graduate School of Education in New York. Jerry was also a United States nominee for the l997 Hans Christian Andersen Illustration Medal, recognizing those whose complete works have made a lasting contribution to children\u2019s literature. In 2013, he was the recipient of the Distinguished Arts Award at the Governor\u2019s Awards for the Arts in Pennsylvania. The Society of Illustrators in New York, NY has presented Jerry with four gold medals, four silver medals, the Hamilton King Award, and in 2006, their Original Arts Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2011, he was elected into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame.\nIn addition to his work in children\u2019s books, Jerry has had over thirty, one-man exhibitions in such venues as the Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago, IL; the California African American Museum in Los Angeles, CA; the Brandywine River Art Museum in Chadds Ford, PA; the Schomberg Center in New York, NY; the R. Michelson Gallery in Northampton, MA; the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, MA; the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit, MI; the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, NY; the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, GA; the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia, PA; and the African American Museum in Dallas, TX. He has exhibited in over one hundred group shows within the USA, and has been exhibited in Japan, Russia, Italy, Taiwan, Jamaica, Bermuda, and Honolulu. His art can be found in the permanent collections at the Library of Congress, the New York Public Library, the Delaware Art Museum, the Brandywine River Art Museum, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, and the National Museum of Wildlife Art, as well as in private collections. His works have also been featured in The New York Times, American Artist Magazine, The Horn Book Magazine, the CBS \u201cSunday Morning Show,\u201d and on PBS\u2019s \u201cReading Rainbow.\u201d\nJerry has illustrated for a wide variety of clients, including the US Postal Service, National Parks Service, and National Geographic Magazine. He created art for the Harry Chapin Run Against Hunger commemorative poster, a foundation that helps bring food to those in need. He was invited to create a painting for the 30th Bologna Book Fair in Bologna, Italy and for the NASA Art Collection of the John F. Kennedy Space Center. In 2001, Jerry was invited by First Lady Laura Bush to illustrate and design the White House Christmas Program for the Visitors Center.\nIn 2003, Jerry was appointed to the National Council of the Arts (NEA), and served from 2003 to 2009. He was also appointed to serve on the US Postal Services Citizens Stamp Advisory Committee from 1982 to 1992. In 2012, he was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in Cambridge, MA. Additionally, Jerry is a Trustee Emeritus for the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, MA, where he was a 2014 Honoree, and is presently a Trustee on the Board of the Katonah Museum of Art in Katonah, NY. He has held several professorships and taught at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY; the University of Delaware in Newark, DE; and the University at Buffalo in Buffalo, NY. Jerry lives with his wife, author Gloria Jean Pinkney, in Westchester County, NY.\nFrom Jerry Pinkney: \u201cIt was a warm day in early September 2001 when the phone rang in my studio. I stopped work to answer; the call was from the White House. The caller was one of First Lady Laura Bush\u2019s staff. She had been directed to contact me in regards to a project that she was interested in me creating for the art of the 2001 White House Christmas program. You can only imagine my surprise and amazement in receiving such a call. I responded with a wholehearted yes. A meeting was setup that following Thursday to meet with Mrs. Bush\u2019s staff and White House design director. The date was September the 6th, just five days before the 9/11 attack. This would be the first of many visits to the White House. The project began in earnest the week after the horrific act of violence with what seemed like insurmountable challenges. However daunting, the project was completed and Gloria Jean, my wife, and I were invited to a reception at the White House for all the contributors who gave their time and talents to make the White House as festive, magical and inviting as possible. In so many ways, this gathering and celebration symbolized the resilience of this great country after such a national tragedy. The theme was to have the White House have the feel of a winter wonderland with fifty Christmas trees decorated in gold and silver ornaments with the trees appearing to be covered in fresh snow. I should actually say forty-nine trees, because in one of the rooms, one tree would be trimmed, yes in white, gold and silver, but also adding to the tree\u2019s adornment were reduced scale book jackets from books I\u2019ve illustrated.\n\u201cIn 2003, I was appointed by President George Bush to serve on the National Council on the Arts\u2014NEA. I would serve for six years. Over this time, council members would be invited to events held at the White House where the NEA played some role. How much fun it was for me to be able to recognize many of the Honor Guards and service staff. In 2002 and in 2005, the Pinkney publishing family was invited to participate in the National Book Festival. There would be dinner at the Library of Congress the evening before the festival and breakfast the morning of the event at the White House.\n\u201cEach visit would be a special and unique experience and in many ways, each would feel like the first time with the same wonder, awe, and the same sense of standing in a place that is so important to our country\u2019s history. Walking through the rooms smaller than you might imagine, yet enormous in its impact on one. Rooms that carry the fragrance of fresh-cut flowers arranged so magnificently in every room. What a joy it has been to play a part in this project that celebrates the White House and its history. How privileged I am to be able to contribute to a publication that has also been a bridge to revisiting the unforgettable moments that I have experienced at the White House.\u201d\nLearn more at JerryPinkneyStudio.com.\nMore Books by Jerry Pinkney\nThe Christmas Boot (Dial Books)\nIn Plain Sight by Richard Jackson (Roaring Book Press)\nGrasshopper and the Ants (Little Brown)\nLittle Red Riding Hood, adapted by Jerry Pinkney (Little Brown)\nThe All-I\u2019ll-Ever-Want Christmas Doll, written by Patricia C.

        "raw_content": "Peter is away with Professor Kirke, studying for exams. Susan is in America with her parents. Edmund and Lucy are stuck staying with their cousin Eustace, who is very pompous and makes fun of them for their tales of Narnia. Edmund and Lucy are admiring a painting of a ship, which they think is very Narnian. Eustace comes in and thinks they are crazy for liking the painting at all. The painting starts to become real and they are transported into the world of Narnia. They are saved from drowning by the crew of the Dawn Treader. Edmund and Lucy are pleased to see their old friends Caspian and Reepicheep and to find that is has only been three years since they last left. Eustace is appalled by the entire situation and wants to find a way back home.\nCaspian is on a quest to find the seven lost Lords of Narnia. They start by stopping at the Lone Islands. They decide to walk across the island and meet up with the Dawn Treader on the other side. However, they are captured by slave traders. Caspian is sold to a man who turns out to be Lord Bern (one of the lost Lords). Together, they come up with a plan to intimidate the governor of the island into freeing the slaves. King Caspian demotes the governor and promotes Lord Bern to Duke of the Lone Islands.\nBack on the Dawn Treader, the crew experiences a terrible storm. They realize that they must find land quickly to make repairs. They find an island and Eustace uses the confusion to sneak away to avoid doing any work. It starts raining and he finds himself in a cave full of treasure. However, he takes the wrong treasure when he puts on a bracelet that turns him into a dragon. Eustace realizes how awful he has been and makes amends with the King, the crew, and his cousins by helping them repair the ship. Aslan turns him back into a boy and Edmund finds him and returns him to the group. The bracelet bares the mark of Lord Octesian, one of the lost Lords. They believe that he was either killed by the dragon, or he was the dead dragon they found.\nAfter a quick stop at the uninhabited Burnt Island, they find themselves in a longboat looking at a golden statue in the water. Eustace puts his spear into the water to see how deep it is, but it gets too heavy and he has to drop it. They find that anything that touches the water turns to gold, including the statue that used to be Lord Restimar. After arguing over the island, Aslan helps them realize that it is not worth the risk involved. They name the island Deathwater and move on quickly, making a pack to tell no one about the possible treasures of the water.\nNext, they land on the Duffers' island. The group is threatened by an invisible force. They demand that Lucy undo the spell that they cast upon themselves to hid from magician's uglification spell. Lucy makes her way to the spell book in the magicians house. While looking for the proper spell, she is almost tempted to use a spell on herself to make her the most beautiful woman in the world. Aslan appears to her and brings her back to herself. She finds the spell and makes everyone visible again. They find that the Duffers are a sort of monopod dwarfs.\nThey stop at the Dark Island (aka The Island Where Dreams Come True) and find Lord Rhoop, who begs them to either rescue or kill him. The others agree that it must be a terrible place after he explains that it isn't day dreams that come true, but the dreams of when you sleep.\nTheir last stop is at the Island of Star. They find the last three lords sleeping at a table covered in a feast. They are weary about eating the food, thinking that they will sleep as well if they do. They meet a fallen star, Ramadu, and his daughter, who encourage them to eat the food provided. Ramadu informs the group that the only way to wake the three lords is to sail to the end of the world and leave one behind.\nWhen they get to the worlds end, Reepicheep is more than happy to be left behind, as he has been sung to about this being his quest. Caspian wants to go as well, but after the crew protests about him needing to be king and a visit from Aslan, he realizes that he must return to his kingdom. Edmund, Lucy, and Eustace go on to find Aslan. The lion informs Edmund and Lucy that they will not return to Narnia, and they will have to learn to know him by another name in their own world.\nBack in their own world, everyone is surprised by the change in Eustace. He even makes a comment about how his mother will blame it on Edmund and Lucy's bad influence.",

        "raw_content": "RIP Hazel Dickens\nAt Metafilter I discover that Hazel Dickens has died, and I am sorry to hear it. Her version of Hills of Galilee has long been basically my favorite piece of music in the whole very wide world. I've long said that, if I ever go Christian, it'll be the music that does it. Bach, sure... Who doesn't love Bach. But mostly old-time gospel and bluegrass and suchlike. I've got fairly broad-ranging musical taste, clustering toward punk and alt-rock/geek rock...but the other major clustering point is bluegrass/old-time. Bluegrass sounds like home, and no other music speaks to me on that level. It's far from Dickens's only great song, but Hills of Galilee is, IMHO, an astonishing piece of artistry. It affects me so deeply that I don't let myself listen to it unless I'm exactly in the mood, and then I only listen if I can give it my full attention. If you're not familiar with it, do yourself a favor and give it a listen.\n\"No Homo\"\nThis is freaking great.\nSee, now this is how to speak intelligently about popular culture--and in a morally uplifting way, no less. All the shrill, dumb-ass pomobabble in the world isn't worth 30 seconds of this guy's clear, reasonable commentary on the \"no homo\" phenomenon. He's particularly good when he's discussing how people get sucked into saying it purely because of its comedic value. He's not an off-putting scold, and he's just plain right about it. He's also careful to note that uttering the phrase is not a huge moral crime, and, I think, particularly effective when he acknowledges the tug of his his own urge to say it for comedic effect at the end of his video.\nAyn Rand Inspired By Serial Killer\nHere, via Leiter.\nThe thing is, this is no mere coincidence, no throw-away ad hominem. From the perspective of the randroids, there are no grounds for criticism of Hickman. In fact, his actions are praiseworthy. He doesn't let the interests of others interfere with his own goals, nor the pursuit of his own happiness. It is, in a way, gruesomely satisfying that Rand came right out and admitted admiration for this psychopath; it provides us with the penultimate line in the reductio. But, in a sense, we already knew that there was, as we might say, a theoretical Hickman that Rand was committed to admiring. (Though I suppose that I'd have predicted that she'd have flinched rather than openly embracing the pure, unadulterated instantiation of her ideas. I didn't realize how comfortable she was with her own insanity.) At any rate, an admiration for psychopaths is an obvious entailment of Rand's dumb-ass, sophomoric ravings. Hickman was already in there--so obviously so that it'd be odd to even say he was latent in the view. The theoretical Hickman, at least, was right there on the surface.\nI guess that this won't do anything to dampen the enthusiasm of the Ayn Rand cult...but sometimes people surprise you...\nFascist NYC Cops In Action\nSomething has got to be done about this kind of shit. American cops are out of control. In this video (via Reddit), we see NYC cops arrest a guy for making a friendly joke as he passes by another guy who's getting a ticket for riding his bike on the sidewalk.\nI'm sure things have been worse in the past...but that's no excuse. These mother****ers need to be thrown off the police force. And why is there no government agency in charge of keeping these assholes under control?\nThis is still America, right?\nThe Sexual Subtext of 'Predator'\nOr: Why Parodies of PoMo/LitCrit Are Indistinguishable From The Real Thing\nI cam pretty much guarantee you that, if this were longer, it could be published in an academic journal somewhere.",

        "raw_content": "Last weekend we welcomed a new member to our family\u2026 our pancake family, that is! It was Saturday morning and everybody was looking forward to some yummy pancakes. The only problem was, that I did not get to the supermarket on Friday night and there were not enough lemons for lemon pancakes; neither did we have a banana left for banana oat pancakes (see recipe here http://plantbasedhappy.com/?page_id=393) and I had just a little bit of buckwheat flour left in the pantry- so no buckwheat pancakes (see recipe here http://plantbasedhappy.com/?page_id=904) either\u2026\nThe last thing that I wanted was to disappoint my family and decided to whip up some \u201ctraditional\u201d, but plant-based pancakes with only a few ingredients. The result was such a surprise- the pancakes reminded us all of the traditional American pancakes that we used to eat before we changed our diet. The texture and the flavor were so similar! How unexpected! We topped them with nuts, drizzled them with maple syrup and could not get enough of them.\nI don\u2019t know whether it was the combination of different flours that made them so special or whether the trick is in mixing the batter until it is foamy\u2026whatever it was, it was perfect. We had the pancakes again on Sunday morning and the children took leftovers \u201cglued\u201d together with honey and chopped walnuts to school for morning snack- accompanied by fresh strawberries.\nBecause I mixed plant-based milk with apple cider vinegar I called them whole food plant-based buttermilk pancakes\nOn Wikipedia, I found the following fact: \u201cArchaeological evidence suggests that pancakes are probably the earliest and most widespread cereal food eaten in prehistoric societies.\u201d Wow, these people really did know how to enjoy food!\nWorldwide, there are a lot of different varieties of pancakes. In Austria, for example, so called \u201cPalatschinken\u201d our one of our favorite dessert recipes (see recipe here http://plantbasedhappy.com/?page_id=2317). Palatschinken are thinner than pancakes and come in a variety of sweet and savory fillings. In France, the pancakes are very thin and are called Cr\u00e8pes (Watch out- if pronounced properly in French in an English speaking country, you might be thrown out of the restaurant!) and are folded into triangles.\nI hope you will enjoy all these pancakes as much as we do.",

        "raw_content": "Interview: John Spinelli (Ghost In The Addict)\nGhost In The Addict is the brainchild of John Spinelli, the only official member of the band, being a sole singer and a multi-instrumentalist, merging a multitude of genre into a pleasant, melancholic but powerful result!\npdn: Good evening, John! How did you come up with this name for your project?\nJohn: I had a dream that an extraterrestrial came down and spoke to me telepathically. I don't remember a lot of what I was told - it was telling me about other dimensions and things that I could barely wrap my head around. But I remember that it told me I should stop trying to get a band together and just make music on my own, using the name Ghost in the Addict. I think it was a dream anyway...\npdn: And how did you come up with the idea for this one man band of yours, when did you start making music?\nJohn: I started playing the drums when I was a little kid and I taught myself guitar, bass, and piano as a teenager. I always wrote fragments of music but I didn't really have my own distinctive style. Then one time I took acid on Halloween with some friends and we went walking in the forest. Somehow I got separated from the group and had no idea where I was. I wandered all alone in the dark, lost in the forest for hours and hours. Eventually I came upon an open field with an amazing view of the October sky. I sat in the grass alone that night and had a long conversation with the moon. And that's when I started writing songs the way that I do now. Something happened to me that night and it changed me forever.\npdn: What influences you when you write the lyrics and put your sounds together?\nJohn: I think I tend to be more influenced by life events than I am by music I listen to. The sound that comes out of me is just the sound that comes out. It might be too melancholy or pretty for some people or it might be too dark and moody for others. All I can say is that it's honest. I don't know how to make any other sound besides the one that comes out of me. I have a terrible rebellious streak coursing through me. If someone tells me to go left I'm going to go right. I sometimes think my music is a reaction in that way. I feel like I'm \"supposed\" to make hard, fast, loud, angry music because I'm a boy. So I make slow, moody, melancholy, emotional music. It's a strange kind of \"fuck you\" I guess.\npdn: What are some bands that were meaningful pillars in your life and in the initiation of Ghost In The Addict?\nJohn: There have been a lot of bands and artists that have been important to my life. As a male living in this culture I have always felt the societal pressure to not be emotional, not be vulnerable... to be tough and hard and manly and all that bullshit. I think it's unfortunate. Because of these cultural demands a lot of guys go through life denying a large part of themselves because they've been conditioned to think that it's not cool to be reflective, thoughtful, emotional, and things like that. I think some of the music which really had an impact on me years and years ago were albums like Pretty Hate Machine by Nine Inch Nails, Siamese Dream by Smashing Pumpkins, Disintegration by The Cure... albums where male artists weren't afraid to explore fragile emotions and openly express them despite the cultural attitudes which often force guys to feel ashamed of feeling. I have great admiration for people who feel the full spectrum of emotions and do it without shame. Fuck shame.\npdn: If you were to collaborate with other artists, who would they be?\nJohn: When I was recording Wishblister I think William Control's album Hate Culture had just been released and I was listening to it a lot. Our music is quite different but I feel like some of the emotion is similar. He's an artist I hold in high regard, in terms of his ability to articulate emotions that are the sort that most people stuff down and never let out. I think there is a certain kind of magic inherent in expressing the things which we are told we should not express. All my life people say \"smile!\" when they take a picture. They never say \"be honest\" or \"be yourself\" - too many people want something phony instead of something real. I love artists who are able to do something real.\npdn: What are your plans for the near future?\nJohn: Right now I am recording the follow-up to Wishblister. I have music written and recorded to over 20 new songs. The next step in the process is to track vocals, which I should begin doing after the first of the year.\npdn: Thank you so much for your time! Any message for the readers that you would like to add?\nJohn: You're not alone. There are lots of us. Let's take over.\nhttp://ghostintheaddict.com\nhttp://facebook.com/ghostintheaddict\nhttp://vampirefreaks.com/ghostintheaddict\nhttp://myspace.com/ghostintheaddict\nhttp://youtube.com/ghostintheaddict\nLabels: Ghost In The Addict, John Spinelli, Wishblister",

        "raw_content": "The Serpent Sermon\nFor a band that has been around for twenty-two years, Marduk has managed to pull themselves a twelfth album that will keep them active for the upcoming years. In their most recent album, Serpent Sermon, they certainly have not lost their appeal in constructing these 11 misanthropic tracks.\nThe album kicks off with beastly sermons and diabolical grumbles by Mortuus. Chaotic and hellish angst that envelops the ears, truly. Midway through, one can hear the wide-range of his flashy and impressive grunts, which are perhaps even more varied in this when compared to their 2 previous albums, Wormwood and Rom 5:12 - where he also took charge of the vocals. This album proves him to be the least stagnant indeed and suffice to say, the most favorable singer out of all the vocalists Marduk has ever had.\nSerpent Sermon has a clear production on par with Wormwood, yet the quality may remain a peculiar thing to some people; It's the digital age, yet it's not over-polished. To the highest degree it is quite consistent with some agonizingly slow parts - as is the definite case in the song, \"M.A.M.M.O.N.\". It is an album that a black metal fan has heard before. Not a necessity but it's enough to satisfy one's cravings for some hint of true black metal (although, I can't help but hear a compounding similarity of the bands, Deathspell Omega and Carpathian Forest lurking around the whole album). By all odds, I have to say the craftiest songs would have to be: Serpent Sermon, Messianic Pestilence, Hail Mary and Gospel of the Worm.\n01. Serpent Sermon\n02. Messianic Pestilence\n03. Souls for Belial\n04. Into second Death\n05. Temple of Decay\n06. Damnation's Gold\n07. Hail Mary (Piss-soaked Genuflexion)\n08. M.A.M.M.O.N.\n09. Gospel of the Worm\n10.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Police warn that they may have to protect Protest the Pope from emotional faithful\nJulie Burchill smears Catholics as double-speaking and duplicitous by nature \u00bb\nPeter Tatchell\u2019s admission reveals his plan to arrest the Holy Father was nonsense from start to finish\nThe Independent newspaper reports that Peter Tatchell, and Protest the Pope, concede that Pope Benedict is recognised by the British Government as a Head of State and therefore has sovereign immunity.\n\u2018Many of its leading members have previously said they want to the pontiff to be prosecuted for \u201ccrimes against humanity\u201d. But after taking legal advice, members of the group admitted there would be no attempt to arrest the Pope because he is protected as a head of state.\n\u201cThe Pope has sovereign immunity from prosecution under British law; it wouldn\u2019t work,\u201d said Peter Tatchell, the human rights activist who has previously tried to perform citizen\u2019s arrests on the Zimbabwean leader Robert Mugabe and the former US secretary of state, Henry Kissinger.\nTatchell added \u201cIt\u2019s not for want of wishing or trying.\u201d\nProtect the Pope comment: Peter Tatchell, the homosexual activist who speaks approvingly of consenting child-adult sexual relationships, is becoming a more ridiculous figure by the day. The original claim he, Dawkins and others, made that the Holy Father has committed \u2018crimes against humanity\u2019 was patently absurd and ludicrous. But still serious media, like CNN, gave it coverage. Now Tatchell, outside the Metropolitan Police Headquarters, is forced to admit that his plan to arrest the Holy Father is a nonsense and still the media take this clown seriously when he says,\u2019\u201dIt\u2019s not for want of wishing or trying.\u201d None of them start questioning his credibility or the veracity of his calumnies against the Holy Father, instead they just keep repeating them with a straight face. Incredible!\nhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/peter-tatchell-scraps-idea-of-making-citizens-arrest-on-the-pope-2074273.html\n8 comments to Peter Tatchell\u2019s admission reveals his plan to arrest the Holy Father was nonsense from start to finish\nHow can a 14 year old give consent to paedophiliac advances?! Oh of course \u2013 by plying them with CDs and i-pods!!! Tatchell should be arrested for attempting to make a vile and evil act legal \u2013 and leaving children at the mercy of evil paedophiles.\nWhat creepy odd balls we have as pillars of our society!! He should be arrested!\nTatchell should be arrested for saying that he knew people who had sex with underage children. That is covering up abuse is it not? He should have to disclose the names of people that have done this that he knows about and they should be arrested.\nI thorougly agree. It\u2019s a wonder no one has mentioned it!!\nBecause he\u2019s non religious and gay. Think if this was a Catholic in the mainstream media and this Catholic had said these things, front page news\n\u201cTatchell should be arrested for saying that he knew people who had sex with underage children. \u201d\nEr, that is not what he said. He said he knows people (who are presumably adults now) who had sex when they were underage with adults.\nHe never claimed to know the abusers just the victims (who he claimed did not self-identify as victims, although I\u2019m note sure that there is much relevence in that)\nAll sounds dodgy to me, but if you are going to smear someone, get the facts right.\nROS Coward (Why Dares to Speak says nothing useful, June 23) thinks it is \u201cshocking\u201d that Gay Men\u2019s Press has published a book, Dares To Speak, which challenges the assumption that all sex involving children and adults is abusive. I think it is courageous.\nThe positive nature of some child-adult sexual relationships is not confined to non-Western cultures. Several of my friends \u2013 gay and straight, male and female \u2013 had sex with adults from the ages of nine to 13. None feel they were abused. All say it was their conscious choice and gave them great joy.\nI have got my facts straight. What he is saying is that he has friends, friends are people he knows who had had sex with underage children, and then he goes on to defend it. He is covering up abuse himself.\nEr no. \u201cSeveral of my friends \u2013 gay and straight, male and female \u2013 had sex with adults from the ages of nine to 13.\u201d this is a statement that he knows VICTIMS of abuse not the ABUSERS. If he knew the abusers and kept quiet about their identity he would indeed be covering up abuse, but your suggestion that he is is simply not covered by the facts.\nHe then goes on to say that he doesn\u2019t think all sex between children and adults is abusive, which is advocating pedophilia. The man is advocating pedophilia. Peter Hitchens even evaluates this in his column: = http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/2010/09/who-said-not-all-sex-involving-children-is-unwanted-and-abusive-answer-the-popes-biggest-british-cri.html\n\u201dFor on June 26, 1997, Mr Tatchell wrote a start ling letter to the Guardian newspaper.\n\u2018Several of my friends \u2013 gay and straight, male and female \u2013 had sex with adults from the ages of nine to 13.\n\u2018None feel they were abused.

Show Your College Pride with Purdue Checks\nAre you a fan of the Boilermakers? Are you a Purdue University alumni? Do you just love college ball and want to support your favorite team? If so, then you should really consider carrying around Purdue University checks. They are easy to find, look great, and do a terrific job of showing your team spirit at a reasonable cost.\nPurdue University is located in West Lafayette, Indiana. It was established on May 6, 1869 and the first classes were held on September 16, 1874. Nowadays, Purdue has the largest student body of any Indiana university as well as the largest international student enrollment of any public university in the United States.\nPurdue is a founding member of the Big Ten Conference, and is home to 18 Division I/I-A NCAA teams including football, cross-country, basketball, wrestling, tennis, volleyball, golf, and other sports.\nPurdue's men's basketball team has an all-time winning record against all of the Big Ten schools. The men's and women's basketball teams have also won more Big Ten Championships than any other conference school.\nSince Joe Tiller became head coach of the football team in 1996, the Boilermakers have made a bowl appearance every year except in 2005 and 2008. He was named National Coach of the Year by both Football News and Kickoff magazines, the GTE Region 3 Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association and the Big Ten Dave McClain Coach of the Year.\nRoss-Ade Stadium is the stadium that the Boilermakers call home. It is named for David E. Ross and Gearoge Ade and can hold around 62,000 people. It opened in 1924.\nPurdue has had several mascots over the years including: The Boilermaker Special, Purdue Pete, and Rowdy. The Boilermaker Special looks like a train and is meant to represent Purdue's engineering program. The official school colors, Old Gold and Black, were adopted in 1887.\nThe Purdue University #1 Fan check series is for the devoted fans. These cartoon designs are for the fans that know all of the players by name, give interviews to the television crews, and turn off the television in disgust when the game doesn't go their way. You know who you are!\nYou can also purchase Purdue University checks that show the official colors and logo of the Boilermakers. Both check series allow you the option of purchasing matching accessories like a coordinating leather checkbook cover, contact cards, and address labels.\nDon't forget that if you want to order Purdue checks you can do it online. Not only will you have more designs to choose from, but you can save as much as 50% off the price that you might have to pay at your bank. There are quite a few reputable websites out there that will not only save you money, but also get your Purdue checks to you in around 5 days. In the past, when you ordered them at your bank, it sometimes took up to 2 weeks to get them.\nPurdue Checks | Privacy Policy | Terms of Service | Contact",

DOI:10.1016/j.energy.2010.09.038.\nGHG (Increasing greenhouse gas) emissions in China imposes enormous pressure on China's government and society. The increasing GHG trend is primarily driven by the fast expansion of high energy-intensive sectors including the chemical industry. This study investigates energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the processes of chemical production in China through calculating the amounts of CO2 emissions and estimating the reduction potential in the near future. The research is based on a two-level perspective which treats the entire industry as Level one and six key sub-sectors as Level two, including coal-based ammonia, calcium carbide, caustic soda, coal-based methanol, sodium carbonate, and yellow phosphorus. These two levels are used in order to address the complexity caused by the fact that there are more than 40 thousand chemical products in this industry and the performance levels of the technologies employed are extremely uneven. Three scenarios with different technological improvements are defined to estimate the emissions of the six sub-sectors and analyze the implied reduction potential in the near future. The results highlight the pivotal role that regulation and policy administration could play in controlling the CO2 emissions by promoting average technology performances in this industry.\nChina's chemical industry; CO2 emissions; CO2 reduction potential\nEnergy; 35(12):4663-4670 (December 2010) (Published online 14 October 2010)",

The court declared the Assembly to be in \u201ccontempt\u201d last December because it had sworn in three representatives from the states of Amazonas who were accused of voter fraud.\n\u201cWhile the situation persists of contempt and the invalidity of the National Assembly\u2019s actions, this Constitutional Court will guarantee that the parliamentary responsibilities be exercised by the Court or the organ that it chooses, in order to preserve the rule of law,\u201d the announcement reads.\nA manager counts the incoming cash of the day at a bakery in Caracas, Venezuela, on Oct. 16, 2016. Photographer: Manaure Quintero/Bloomberg\nOpposition lawmakers sharply criticized the move, saying it is another indication of President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro\u2019s intention to undermine the country\u2019s democratic foundations.\n\u201cThis [is an] unconstitutional decision that we reject \u2026 [and it] is another step in the dismantling of Venezuela\u2019s democracry,\u201d the coalition of opposition groups known as the Democratic Unity Roundtable said in a statement, according to Reuters.\nThe TSJ\u2019s controversial decision came one day after the Organization of American States (OAS) convened a meeting to discuss potential solutions to the political and economic crisis in Venezuela. The meeting was held at the request of 18 member states, and came just days after OAS President Luis Almagro wrote a searing indictment of the Maduro administration.\n\u201cThe rule of law is not in force in Venezuela. It has been eliminated by a judicial branch completely controlled by the executive branch,\u201d Almagro said in the March 14 report (pdf). \u201cToday in Venezuela, no citizen has the possibility of exercising their rights. If the government wants to incarcerate them, it does so. If it wants to torture them, it tortures them \u2026 The citizens have been left completely at the mercy of an authoritative regime that denies their most basic rights.\u201d\nA bakery manager weighs banknotes in Caracas.\nPhotographer: Manaure Quintero/Bloomberg\nThe OAS meeting did not result in any concrete resolutions, but an editorial in The New York Times said it was nonetheless \u201cdeeply embarassing to Venezuela.\u201d\nThe Maduro administration is fortifying its control over all branches of government, but it\u2019s becoming increasingly clear that the government is unable to maintain order. Chronic shortages have left pantry shelves bare and medicine cabinets empty, while runaway inflation has turned the currency into something to be weighed rather than counted.\nAs Venezuela\u2019s economic crisis grinds on, the government\u2019s failures are no less apparent on the security front. The number of common crimes reported to the authorities rose 400 percent between 2014 and 2015, and criminal groups known as \u201cmegabandas\u201d have become larger and more organized. Venezuela\u2019s homicide rate, consistently one of the highest in Latin America, continues to climb. Growing frustration over the rise in crime and general lawlessness can be seen in the huge jump in reported cases of mob lynchings last year.\n\u201cOnly the people can save the people.\u201d\nThe government\u2019s heavy-handed response to the security crisis has only exacerbated it. Human rights groups say an anti-crime campaign launched in July 2015, has led to widespread human rights violations and extrajudicial killings. Maduro announced a new package of security measures in January that included arming civilians, a tacit admission that the crackdown had failed.\n\u201cOnly the people can save the people,\u201d the president said.\nThe people disagree. They are fleeing the country in record numbers.\nMeanwhile, officials have essentially abdicated responsibility of running the country\u2019s prisons to criminal bosses known as \u201cpranes,\u201d which has led to flare-ups of violence inside the jails. Clashes between rival pranes preceded the recent discovery of a mass grave believed to hold the remains of over 100 people at a prison in the northern state of Guarico.\nThe government\u2019s ineptitude has been compounded by widespread corruption. An Associated Press report from last December found that the military, long suspected of having deep ties to the country\u2019s cocaine trade, has turned to food trafficking while much of the population goes hungry. Officials have also used import schemes to siphon off billions of dollars from the treasury at a time when the government is nearly bankrupt.\nAs Venezuela comes apart at the seams, it appears the Maduro administration believes the best way to maintain its hold on power is to usurp it from one of the few institutions left to challenge its authority.\nThe timing of the TSJ ruling was probably not coincidental. Venezuela has made a habit of thumbing its nose at the international community when it takes a public stance against it. The most striking example came last August, when the US government unsealed an indictment against a former top Venezuelan official on drug-related charges. The next day, President Maduro named the blacklisted official as his new interior minister.\nArticle originally appeared on Insightcrime.org and is reposted here with permission.\nClick here to go to the source article.\nPrevious articleVenezuelans Want To Live In A Democracy\nNext articleAlvarez Desanti The PLN Choice For 2018!\nCosta Rica Has Its First Sextuplets\nTurrialba Spews Ash and Rocks\n45 Arrests and 2 Drunk Drivers Tally For First Day of Palmares Fiestas\nApp Makes It Easy For Calling For A Taxi in Costa Rica\nInternational Airlines Have Flown Away From Venezuela\nDuque Mantains Lead in Poll for Colombia election",

        "raw_content": "My Obituary Essay\n10.03.2018 Nitilar\nThe topic of death terrifies most of us. Facing our own mortality is neither a pleasant thought, nor is it one that most of us would choose to entertain on a daily basis. Even as I type the word \"death,\" I am suddenly reminded of the absolute truth that all of us will die, including myself and all of those whom I love -- or not.\nWith last week's passing of Westboro's infamous Fred Phelps, I was reminded once again that death comes for us all. It matters not how we live our lives, for death is an immutable event and one of life's few universal commonalities, though the chosen trajectories of each life may dictate the timing of our day of ultimate atonement.\nWhile some have chosen to celebrate the passing of a man whose life was dedicated to shaming others for their choices and most often doing so during times of mourning, others, such as famed internet persona George Takei, have taken a different path -- offering a poignant, yet unexpected commentary, considering Takei's own membership within Phelps' primary target group:\nHe was a tormented soul, who tormented so many. Hate never wins out in the end. It instead goes always to its lonely, dusty end.\nAs for me, this reminder of death's certainty has provoked me to embark on a strange task: to write my own obituary. While I am no closer to death than any other healthy, 30-something male, I felt this was a good time not only to reflect upon my life to date, but more importantly, to make reasonable predictions for where my life will be later, so that I might have a document to hold me accountable to the life I want others to know me for, once I truly am gone. I do not plan on writing it like one would write a life history, but more as a list of the qualities I want to be remembered for...\nLessons from the early years\nWhile I'm sure close friends of mine from childhood might remember me differently, what I want to be remembered for most from my younger years is that I had creativity and initiative. Coming from a larger family that was immersed in poverty for the majority of my adolescent years, I learned creativity. When one is poor, having more intentions than means with which to carry out those intentions, one becomes inventive. I often tell my children stories about how I played with rocks to pretend I was Indiana Jones with a sacred relic, used sticks as pretend guns when we played cops & robbers, and even practiced my Jordan-esque fade away jumper with a flattened soccer ball I found in the bushes. The imagination soars when enough limits are applied, forcing us to think beyond the painfully obvious.\nThat creativity extended to relationships as well. In a family where poverty extended beyond financial exigency into a sustained emotional vacuum, I learned early on that if I wanted immaterial wealth such as friendship, respect and even love, I had to take initiative to seek it out myself, since it wasn't going to randomly perch itself at my doorstep. Through the painful process of trial and error, I learned that, to obtain these things, I had to give them -- generously, sincerely and often.\nLessons from early adulthood\nComing out of poverty and striking out on my own as a young man, I wanted to live a life free from the shackles of being poor, whether literally or in spirit, and as a result, I developed a rabid sense of ambition. As a 19-year-old new father, I determined that my life was going to eclipse my own father's life in terms of what I thought was success. While avoiding the mistakes he admitted to having made, I became ignorant to the ones I was really making, even though they were painfully clear to those around me.\nMy job became my life, and I gave all to this sense of ambition at the expense of time spent with my first two children. Eventually, my first marriage also suffered, and the ever-approaching light at the end of my ambition's tunnel turned out to be the freight train of divorce. This sent me into a self-reckoning tailspin, in which I tried making up for lost time with respect to my early 20s (a.k.a., partying like a college student).\nFortunately, I met the love of my life during this time, who succeeded in pulling this downward spiral to a screeching halt, against my will. It would not be until later when I realized the significance of her act of selfless and unconditional love. Only after several years of putting up with my childish antics, daily shouting matches and threats to end another marriage would I come to the conclusion that the reason my partner stayed with me was because of her selflessness, hope and undying love.\nOnce I realized this, ambition took on a new meaning for me. Nearing the end of my 20s, I set out to redefine how I saw myself. Say what you will about Sigmund Freud, but one of his quotes defined the decade that would follow:\nHow bold one gets when one is sure of being loved!\nHow bold, indeed. Before I knew it, I was enrolled in college as a grown adult, married, with three children (four by the time I finished). I worked tirelessly to set a strong example for everyone around me: wife, extended family, children, friends, etc. Often, I had to work up to four part-time jobs to make ends meet, and still, we were again immersed in abject poverty, but this time, with a stark difference.\nThe times when life's challenges were at their most extreme are the ones I remember most fondly. While we didn't have cable or satellite television, we read more books, spent time outside, played cards and board games with each other, or raced laundry baskets up and down the hallway of our single-wide trailer! Around this time, I recall reading Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, and a quote from early within its pages struck me:\nOne time, as a child, in a power failure, his mother had found and lit a last candle and there had been a brief hour of rediscovery, of such illumination that space lost its vast dimensions and drew comfortably around them, and they, mother and son, alone, transformed, hoping that the power might not come on again too soon...\nMy newly redefined ambition not only sparked, but engulfed me in a blaze of desire to become the best father and husband I could be.\nLessons from the life left in me that has not yet passed\nI'm not exactly middle-aged yet, or at least, the Peter Pan archetype prevalent in my personality tells me I'm not. In fact, my kids still jokingly buy me anniversary cards every year to celebrate yet another anniversary of my 29th birthday.\nHowever, that doesn't mean I can't predict what my obituary should say about this time in my life. My personal goal is now to mentally write an \"obituary\" for myself from others' perspectives. The question I ask myself now is, \"What will people most remember me for, during this time in my life?\"\nFred Phelps may be gone, but the effects from his life will last a long time, despite our best efforts to forget. Whatever we plant today through our actions will have a ripple effect for generations to come.\nHow about you?

One of our Funeral Directors will assist with any final touches, as well as ensuring that the obituary is published in any newspaper you request.\nTo avoid any mistakes, you should print rather than write the draft out by hand. If you are typing the obituary, please provide Oliver\u0092s with a hard copy as well as a saved copy on either a USB Drive or e-mail us a copy:\nprinting@oliversfuneralhome.com\nSUBJECT: <deceased last name>\nClick here to read sample obituaries.\nPlease click here for printer-friendly Obituary template\nIf you need any assistance or have any questions regarding obituaries please call me at any time.\nWe at Oliver\u0092s will help you put together an obituary that will honour your loved one.\nAn obituary is often the first thing people read in the newspaper each day - and, for many, it will likely be the last thing written about their lives. More than merely a \u0091goodbye\u0092 to the deceased, it is a farewell detailing their life in chronological order. An obituary also serves as notification that an individual has passed away and provides information on any services that are scheduled to take place. Since the cost of running an obituary generally varies by length, it is best to be aware of the \u0091line rate\u0092 for each paper you want the obituary to appear in before you begin your composition. People often save obituaries as remembrances of someone they loved, so make sure that the final product is something worthy of a scrapbook and - more importantly - worthy of your loved one's memory.\nStandard pieces of information to include are the announcement, biographical, scheduled services and memorials\nIt is important to state the deceased's full name, along with their dates of birth and death. You may wish to consider placing a photograph (which can appear in black and white) along with the text for an additional charge.\nRecount, in a concise manner, the significant events in the life of the deceased. This may include the schools he or she attended and any degrees attained as well as their vocations or interests.\nSurvivors and Predeceased Information\nIt is customary to list family members who have survived the deceased, as well as immediate family members who predeceased him or her, including:\nSpouse/partner and children (with their spouses\u2019/partners\u2019 names also noted in brackets, if applicable)\nHalf and step siblings\nSurviving in-laws\nThese surviving relatives should be listed by name. Other relatives need not be mentioned by name but may be referenced in terms of their relationship to the deceased: for example, the obituary may say that the deceased leaves behind five grandchildren, seven nieces, etc.\nProvide details of the scheduled services, including the time, date and address. These may include the funeral, visitations, burial and memorial service as applicable.\nGive the name and mailing address of a foundation or society to which you wish to direct any memorial donations made in honour of your loved one. The decision as to which foundation or society to support may be based upon interests or values that your loved one expressed during life or related to a medical condition which he or she had. We recommend you refrain from using the phrase \u2018 in lieu of flowers \u2019 when requesting memorial donations. Instead, start the final paragraph of the obituary with the words \u2018 Memorial donations may be made to \u2026 .'\nAll information included in the obituary should be verified with another family member. Have them assist you in confirming the dates, those who should be mentioned, correct spelling of names and the details of the scheduled funeral service.\nIf you are having trouble getting started, read other obituaries (Click here to see samples)\nTake into consideration when and in which newspapers (both local and out of town) you wish your funeral director to publish the obituary.\n\"It is with great sadness that the family of (deceased name) announce (his/her) passing....\"\n\"(Deceased name) will be sadly missed by ....\"\n\"Fondly remembered by....\"\n\"Forever remembered by....\"\n\"Lovingly remembered by....\"\n\"Wife/husband and best friend of (number) years....\"\n\"A Celebration of (deceased's name) life will be held on....\"\nObituary Samples\nThe following are three fictitious examples of obituaries:\nFORBES, Alex Downton\nIt is with great sadness that the family of Alex Downton Forbes announces his passing after a brief illness, on Saturday, April 3, 2014, at the age of 70 years.

The visibility is making a crucial issue, not only for the researchers, but also for its institutions, taking into account the resources spent with search is only justified if its results are widely accessible. However, this new vision on the validity of scientific publication challenges models of scientific communication established, especially as regards the traditional roles for its actors and formats of scientific publication. From this perspective, the institutional repositories may constitute an instrument of rearrangement regarding criteria for visibility of the scientific literature, the researcher and the institutions, since it goes beyond the dissemination mechanisms used to date. In this work, attempts to verify the visibility provided by a repository to scientific production of a higher education institution through of the access and download analysis. Are presented the developments incorporated in the statistics of Lume - Digital Repository of Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, with the purpose of facilitating and promoting its use by researchers and managers. Covers the mechanisms available in Lume that contribute to its consolidation as an instrument of management of the research, by allowing more precise analysis with respect to the visibility of research realized at the institution. It concludes that institutional repositories can help with the new processes of scientific communication.\nInformaci\u00f3n cient\u00edfica ; Redes de informaci\u00f3n ; Acceso libre al documento ; Brasil ; Congreso, conferencias, etc. ;",

I suggest it was a form of antinomianism, and related to the Nicolaitans:\n\u201c[The doctrine of Balaam] is stated in the subsequent part of the verse: \u2018Who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the children of Israel.\u2019 \u2026 The meaning here is, that it was through the instructions of Balaam that Balak learned the way by which the Israelites might be led into sin, and might thus bring upon themselves the divine malediction. \u2026 The attitude of Balaam\u2019s mind in the matter was this: i. He had a strong desire to do that which he knew was wrong, and was forbidden expressly by God. ii. He was restrained by internal checks and remonstrances, and prevented from doing what he wished to do. iii. He cast about for some way in which he might do it, notwithstanding these internal checks and remonstrances, and finally accomplished the same thing in fact, though in form different from that which he had first prepared.

        "raw_content": "There was a time when vampire movies were actually scary. Before Twilight, before Van Helsing and Underworld, and even way back before Interview with the Vampire, they had the ability to honestly frighten the crap out of moviegoers. They weren\u2019t campy, they didn\u2019t spawn global arguments about different \u2018teams\u2019, and they certainly weren\u2019t lame enough to be spoofed in dreck like Vampires Suck. Vampires used to be flat-out horrifying.\nIn director Matt Reeves\u2019 fantastic Let Me In, they are again.\nBased on the novel Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist (which he adapted for the screen in the 2008 original Swedish film), Let Me In grabs you from the opening shots of an ambulance racing through the snowy New Mexico wilderness, and it never lets up. Reeves, who helmed the herky-jerky Cloverfield, proves that he knows how to settle down and focus on letting the characters (not action) lead the way. The result is something truly memorable\u2013 one of the scariest, creepiest, and engrossing films to hit the horror genre in years.\nKodi Smit-McPhee (The Road) plays Owen, a shy, friendless, bullied middle-schooler in 1983. (In fact, the action all takes place in the weeks surrounding President Reagan\u2019s famous \u2018Evil Empire\u2019 speech. Hmmm.) Owen passes his time by spying on the neighbors in his apartment complex and sitting alone on its snow-covered jungle gym.\nOne night, a young girl named Abby (Chlo\u00eb Moretz, Kick-Ass) and her father (Richard Jenkins, Eat Pray Love) move in. She walks around barefoot in the snow, is even quieter than Owen, and \u2018smells funny\u2019. Owen takes to her immediately, but she\u2019s quick to tell him that they can\u2019t be friends.\nTurns out, she\u2019s a vampire (who\u2019s been 12 for a \u2018really long time\u2019) and her \u2018father\u2019 is just the unlucky sap who has to venture out into the real world each night and kill someone, so she can eat. Owen, of course, is unaware of all this, and he and Abby develop a strangely compelling and tender relationship.\nReeves crafts Let Me In as an amazing, seamless interweaving of two polar-opposite stories. Abby and Owen\u2019s middle school friendship is sweet and charming. The killing, by both \u2018the father\u2019 and by Abby herself is bloody, visceral, and terrifying. The fact that both stories are so compelling and so perfectly brought together makes Let Me In an instant classic.\nReeves also adapted the screenplay, keeping it sparse and letting a few words do the job where lesser screenwriters would have tried (and failed) to do more. And his camera work (or, more to the point, that of cinematographer Greig Fraser) is stunning, particularly in the scenes where \u2018the father\u2019 is out hunting his prey.\nSmit-McPhee, who was practically the only good thing about The Road, proves his worth again here. The delicate, nuanced performance that he gives as Owen is nothing short of brilliant, and Moretz is even better, playing the dual roles of sweet, quiet Abby and the blood-thirsty monster that she becomes when she\u2019s hungry (or sees blood).\nSpeaking of which, there is a lot of blood (and more blood\u2026 and even more blood), but not a drop of it seems out-of-place or inserted just for effect. Let Me In will take you back to the days when horror meant horror, and not \u2018torture porn\u2019. The suspense is real, the script is smart, and the performances are honest, to the point of being heart-breaking.\nHopefully Let Me In reflects a welcome changing of the guard in horror movies, and not just a temporary break from the norm.",

        "raw_content": "Seabird feces plays a major role in global nutrient cycle\nBioenergyBiologyNutritionChemistry\nJason Auch Colony of Macaroni penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus), one of the species that releases nitrogen and phosphorus in coastal regionsJason Auch\nEvery year, colonies of thousands of seabirds deposit tons of nitrogen and phosphorus through their excrement, known as guano, playing an important role in the nutrient cycle of coastal regions worldwide. An international group of researchers, including agronomist Tiago Osorio Ferreira from the Luiz de Queiroz School of Agriculture at the University of S\u00e3o Paulo (ESALQ-USP), analyzed the impact that seabird guano has on the nutrient cycle. The researchers estimated the global seabird population at 840 million individuals of 320 species distributed among 3,000 colonies. They then applied the data to a bioenergetic model, which considers the size of the bird, the food they eat, their energy efficiency, and how long they stay in breeding colonies, to infer the total amount of nitrogen and phosphorus excreted by the birds. Each year, they release 591,000 tons of nitrogen and 99,000 tons of phosphorus into the environment, primarily in colonies in the Arctic and Southern Oceans, which are inhabited by larger birds, such as the Macaroni Penguin (Eudyptes chrysolophus). \u201cThis is equivalent to the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus contributed to the ocean by all the rivers in the world,\u201d explains Ferreira. In these regions, guano acts as a fertilizer for plants and as food for microbes (Nature Communications, January 23). Part of the excrement dissolves in the ocean, triggering chemical, biological, and geological processes on the coast. \u201cSeabirds can play a key role in transferring nutrients from the ocean to land,\u201d the researcher adds.",

        "title": "Why Audits Are No Longer As Effective - from Roeder Financial",
        "raw_content": "Why Audits Are No Longer As Effective\nJim Gaunce, CPA, Solana Beach, CA November 2009\nThe number of major culprits who contributed to our current economic malaise is longer than the Will Call line at a Yankees-Red Sox game. Even among this large cast, one should not overlook the role that the auditing process has played in the issuance of erroneous or misleading financial statements.\nDuring this decade, the accountants have understandably been trying to react to the sensational stories of the likes of Enron and some of the liability settlements by America's biggest accounting firms. Neither accountants nor auditors were ever supposed to be able to detect fraud in the normal scope of their engagements. Such detection might happen in the course of an audit but the scope of an audit has never been intended to be sufficiently thorough to detect a cleverly spun web of deception.\nThe reaction from the AICPA and legislatures to such events has taken the form of significant increases in regulation. All the \u201calphabet soup\u201d governing bodies (ie, FASB, SEC, AICPA, ASB) have jumped into the fray to issue an onslaught of new regulations, practices and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) including Sarbanes-Oxley, FASB Statements (Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements), SOP (Statements on Accounting Positions), SAS (Statements Auditing Standards), SS (Staff Positions), EITFA (Emerging Issues Task Force abstracts), and so forth. The FASB eventually had to issue another statement to change the structure and hierarchy of the numerous accounting standards and pronouncements. Over the years, such regulations have had the effect of diminishing what was supposed to be the most important element in completing an audit: professional judgment.\nIt would be understandable if the regulations provided a better platform for an audit to be completed. However, such regulations often add layers of complexity that are not fully understood by either the client or the auditor. At some stage, the continued addition of regulations promoted the perception that they are simply rules to be followed blindly instead of principles which require professional judgment. Reason and logic are discounted or ignored in place of strict compliance. Years of seemingly endless additions to the tax code has shown us that the added complexity of regulations can lead to non-compliance and trigger the endless search for loopholes which, in turn, require more and more regulations to combat. This was never what Generally Accepted Accounting Principles were meant to become. Most of the audit failures resulted from deception or fraud which, ironically, was often spun by regulations drafted to prevent such malfeasance. Contracts or investment vehicles were designed to fall within the cracks of regulations, and were designed to be so complex and voluminous that they were often beyond even a well educated person's ability to comprehend or decipher. Think derivatives and credit default swaps.\nIn any event, even if such regulations were justified, mountains of regulations cannot provide answers to many questions - market values for real estate, private placements, even thinly-traded public securities -- let alone even greater imponderables such as potential litigation or litigation outcomes.\nIn addition, some companies have been trying to subvert the intent of an audit. The public largely believes that the sole focus of an audit is to provide an added degree of assurance in the validity of financial statements. However, a second essential element of an audit is to help assess and offer constructive criticism to improve a company's internal controls - in a perfect world, as a harmonious partnership between the company and the auditor. This important part of an audit has not been embraced by as many entities as should be.\nTo minimize provable liability in litigation, corporate counsel has often advised companies to destroy any documentation viewed as \u201cunnecessary.\u201d Regrettably, the absence of such documents makes it harder to assess the effectiveness of internal controls.\nInternal controls also suffered as more companies started to make a higher priority of risk assessment as to what could go wrong and insure themselves against non-ideal events. A recent example is the attitude that many issuers of subprime mortgages took. Seduced by the large amounts of money that could be made; many companies made a mockery of the underwriting process and instead \u201csolved\u201d the problem by buying credit default insurance from entities such as AIG.\nSpeaking of AIG, complexity of their financial instruments was one reason that auditors, and the woefully undermanned Office of Thrift Supervision did not start waving red flags until the 11th hour in March 2008.\nThe solutions to make auditing more effective are not easy but they are necessary. The auditing process needs to start paying more attention to internal controls - even if the client balks. Auditors have to place less emphasis on regulatory check lists and more on professional judgment. The auditor should also make sure that firm executives understand their products. If not, perhaps the most important of internal control is not satisfied.\nJim Gaunce, CPA Solana Beach, CA",

        "raw_content": "Waste: Get Some New Electronics for the Holidays? Here\u2019s How to E-Cycle Your Old Tech\nChien-Min Chung / Reportage / Getty\nSo you\u2019re one of the lucky ones who received an iPhone 4 (or iPad, or Kindle, or Android) for the holidays. After you get over your initial excitement and manage to set up your new digital plaything (here\u2019s a tip\u2014buy a protective case), you still have one more task before you: get rid of your old electronics, which suddenly look so sad and obsolete. I know, it might be tough to let go of that old iPhone (or Blackberry or Nook or Palm), but this is the circle of electronic life. What was once must have must now be replaced, because that is the will of Steve Jobs and the $175 billion U.S. consumer electronics industry.\nBut you can\u2019t just throw those old phones and laptops into the trash\u2014at least not in 24 states including New York Pennsylvania and Vermont, where as of 2011 it will be against the law for electronic goods to end up in landfills. You can find the full list of states at the website of the Electronics TakeBack Coalition, but even if you don\u2019t like in one of them, it\u2019s worth taking better care of your electronic waste\u2014otherwise known as e-waste. From TVs to computers to phones, electronics can contain lead, mercury, cadmium and other potentially harmful chemicals that can often leach from landfills, contaminating the environment\u2014and eventually human beings. We produce a lot of e-waste\u20143 million tons a year, according to the U.N.\u2014and far too much of it still ends up in the trash, whatever the laws say.\nThe answer? E-cycle your e-waste. The easiest way to do this is by simply passing along your old electronics to a friend or family member\u2014something I did with an older laptop this holiday season. The planned obsolescence of many consumer electronics\u2014especially cell phones\u2014means that products are often pulled from the shelves and replaced with new models long before they\u2019ve actually reached the end of their lifetimes. And if there\u2019s no one you know to use your old electronics, try contacting a charity. Cell Phones for Soldiers allows you to easily donate your old handset to a member of the military. You can also sell old phones to websites like Flipswap, which then markets them overseas. (Flipswap will wipe the data off you electronics when you hand them over, but it\u2019s worth doing that yourself first.) And please\u2014make sure the electronics you\u2019re donating still work. Otherwise you\u2019re just giving them garbage.\nIf you can\u2019t give away your old computers and cell phones, you can recycle them\u2014but only the right way. It\u2019s first worth checking out whether your original retailer will accept the product for free recycling. Many do\u2014including Dell, which will even pick up your old computer from your house. Sometimes it\u2019s even worth money\u2014bring an old iPod for recycling to an Apple store, and you can get 10% off a new one. Staples allows you to bring in virtually any old electronics for recycling\u2014even products that weren\u2019t bought from Staples. And if none of these options work, you can contact a recycling company directly. But make sure it\u2019s a the right one\u2014an NGO called the Basel Action Network, which works with e-waste, has a list of e-stewards, recycling companies that will responsibly dispose of old electronics.\nI know it sounds like a lot of work\u2014especially when it\u2019s so easy to just toss that old phone in the trash. But e-waste is a growing environmental threat\u2014not so much here in the U.S. as in developing countries where old e-waste often ends up. China is still a major destination for exported e-waste, and in some towns residents dissemble computers and phones by hand, to find trace amounts of precious metals. The environmental effects can be horrific, with rivers turning pink and the air left foul. Now the trade is spreading to other poor countries\u2014especially in growing urban Africa, where young children can be found burning old computers, inhaling poisonous fumes along the way. As Jack Caravanos of the NGO Blacksmith Institute wrote in a blog post after visiting Accra in Ghana:\nWorkers and residents know the issues, the problems, the risks, but there are no simple solutions. One thing is for sure: the market cannot and will not close\nThe only way to slow down the supply of unregulated e-waste is to take better care of the old products we have\u2014especially when we\u2019re disposing of them.\nAdditional e-waste resources:\nEPA Information on Electronics Recycling\nCalifornia\u2019s E-Waste Recycling",

        "raw_content": "Jan. 5, 2011 \u2013 How fast senior citizens walk appears to be a better gage of how long they will live than trying to do a more complicated analysis using age, sex, chronic conditions, smoking history, blood pressure, body mass index, and hospitalization. This study of senior citizens found walking gait is especially accurate for predicting remaining life for those age 75 and older.\n\"Remaining years of life vary widely in older adults, and physicians should consider life expectancy when assessing goals of care and treatment plans. However, life expectancy based on age and sex alone provides limited information because survival is also influenced by health and functional abilities,\" according to the study in the January 5 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).\nContrary to What Many Seniors Think, Growth Hormone May Not Be Good Way to Slow Aging\nNew research says \u2018un-growth hormone\u2019 increases longevity; could lead to new way to fight aging\nLife Expectancy in U.S. Shows Surprising Decline in New 2008 CDC Data; Up for Blacks\nGood news \u2013 stroke drops to fourth in leading cause of death; death rate declines - Dec. 10, 2010\nAging to 100 is More About Attitude, Adaptation, Physical Activity Than Health History\nHealthy centenarians described as open and conscientious. Second UGA study shows decrease in physical activity accelerates decline in health - Dec. 1, 2010\nHigher alpha-carotene concentration lowers risk of dying from cardiovascular disease or cancer and all other causes\nU.S. Life Expectancy Falls Behind Major Countries, Despite Highest Health Spending\nObesity, smoking, traffic fatalities and homicide ruled out as causes of failure of US to keep up with gains in life expectancy in other countries\nA Battle for Love in Younger Years Appears to Shorten the Life of Male Senior Citizens\nHarvard study finds men who mature where women far out number men, making mating less competitive, live longer than others\nThe researchers were motivated to begin the study because there were currently no well-established approaches to predicting life expectancy that incorporated health and function. Gait speed, or walking speed, had been recommended as a potentially useful clinical indicator of well-being among older adults.\nStephanie Studenski, M.D., M.P.H., of the University of Pittsburgh, and colleagues conducted a study to assess the association of gait speed with survival in older adults and to determine the degree to which gait speed explains variability in survival after accounting for age and sex.\nThe study included a pooled analysis of 9 participating studies (collected between 1986 and 2000), using individual data from 34,485 community-dwelling adults age 65 years or older with walking speed data available at the beginning of the study, followed up for 6 to 21 years.\nParticipants had an average age of 73.5 years; 59.6 percent were women; and 79.8 percent were white.\nGait speed was calculated for each participant using distance in meters and time in seconds. All studies used instructions to walk at usual pace and from a standing start. The walk distance varied from 8 feet to 6 meters. The average gait speed of the participants was 0.92 meters (3 feet) per second.\nDuring the course of the study, there were 17,528 deaths. The overall 5-year survival rate was 84.8 percent; the 10-year survival rate was 59.7 percent.\nThe researchers found that gait speed was associated with differences in the probability of survival at all ages in both sexes, but was especially informative after age 75 years. At this age, predicted 10-year survival across the range of gait speeds ranged from 19 percent to 87 percent in men and from 35 percent to 91 percent in women.\nPredicted years of remaining life for each sex and age increased as gait speed increased, with a gait speed of about 2.6 feet (0.8 meters)/second at the median (midpoint) life expectancy at most ages for both sexes.\n\u201cGait speeds of 1.0 meter (3.3 feet)/second or higher consistently demonstrated survival that was longer than expected by age and sex alone. In this older adult population the relationship of gait speed with remaining years of life was consistent across age groups, but the absolute number of expected remaining years of life was larger at younger ages,\" the authors write.\nThe researchers also found that predicted survival based on age, sex, and gait speed was as accurate as predictions based on age, sex, use of mobility aids, and self-reported function or as age, sex, chronic conditions, smoking history, blood pressure, body mass index, and hospitalization.\nWhy gait speed matters\nThe authors suggest there are several reasons why gait speed may predict survival. \"Walking requires energy, movement control, and support and places demands on multiple organ systems, including the heart, lungs, circulatory, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems. Slowing gait may reflect both damaged systems and a high energy cost of walking.\"\nThe researchers write that there are a number of ways gait speed might be used clinically, including helping to identify older adults with a high probability of living for 5 or 10 more years, who may be appropriate targets for preventive interventions that require years for benefit.\nGait speed might be used to identify older adults with increased risk of early mortality, perhaps those with gait speeds slower than 0.6 meter (2 feet)/second.\n\"In these patients, further examination is targeted at potentially modifiable risks to health and survival.\" Also, gait speed might be monitored over time, with a decline indicating a new health problem that requires evaluation.\n\"The data provided herein are intended to aid clinicians, investigators, and health system planners who seek simple indicators of health and survival in older adults. Gait speed has potential to be implemented in practice, using a stop watch and a 4-meter (13 feet) course. From a standing start, individuals are instructed to walk at their usual pace, as if they were walking down the street, and given no further encouragement or instructions. The data in this article can be used to help interpret the results. Gait speed may be a simple and accessible indicator of the health of the older person,\" the authors conclude.\nEditorial: Role of Gait Speed in the Assessment of Older Patients\nIn an accompanying editorial, Matteo Cesari, M.D., Ph.D., of the Universita Campus Bio-Medico, Rome, writes that because no evidence definitively supports the hypothesis that gait speed improvements are associated with better health-related outcomes, gait speed should not be considered as a primary target for interventions at this time.\n\"It represents a global marker of health status, and an optimal secondary and complementary outcome to support research findings, clinical decisions, or both aimed at modifying more pragmatic end points. ...assessing gait speed in older persons is likely to be a useful research tool and may have a clinical role. Future research will be needed to determine whether gait speed has the potential to change the way in which a patient is defined as geriatric.\"",

So in order to translate a text into Arabic you need to know who the audience is.\nIn addition, it is assigned gender to each Arabic word. For example the sun, the earth, tables, and all the things and even verbs have a gender. It makes the translator to be careful in using verbs and pronouns.\nFurthermore, modern Arabic has a wide range of dialects. It adds another difficulty in translating Arabic.\nDifferences between English and Arabic\nWhen you are writing Arabic, you starts from the right side of a line and ends in the left.\nBesides Arabic alphabet is completely different from Latin alphabet.\nAs it was said, verbs and things are assigned gender which in English language does not matter.\nDespite all these differences, some English words rooted in Arabic, e.g. \u201cguitar\u201d which is \u201cqithara\u201d in Arabic.\nAs Google suggests, Arabic is the second most difficult language to translate, after Mandarin.\nSo translating texts specially academic texts and papers is very important and needs a precision, experienced translator who is interested in his/her work and does researches in case in is necessary so that the final translation be an accurate, clear, and easy to understand text.\nOne of the Sharifyar\u2019s services is translation services. Our translators offer professional and specialized translations in Arabic, English, and Russian.\nAcademic Services, Arabic Translationarabic translation to english, best translation from english to arabic, English to Arabic translation, english to modern arabic translation, translation arabic to english writing",

Gaiman created an unforgettable tale of the forces that exist beyond life and death by weaving ancient mythology, folklore and fairy tales with his own distinct narrative vision.\nTHE SANDMAN: A GAME OF YOU tells a fascinating tale of lost childhood dreams and the power that they can wield over reality. Since she was a child, Barbie has dreamed of a world in which she was a princess. But after separating from her husband, she has ceased to dream and her fantasy kingdom has been savagely overrun by an evil entity known as the Cuckoo. Now as elements of her fantasy world cross over and begin to drastically affect reality, Barbie and her friends venture into the realm of dreams to save its peaceful inhabitants. But against the power of dark and dying dreams, even the combined might of a witch, two lesbian lovers, a transsexual, and a decapitated talking head might not be enough to save two different planes of existence.\nThis fifth volume of the SANDMAN series collects newly recolored issues #32-37 of the Vertigo classic.\nMore by Neil Gaiman, Shawn McManus, Colleen Doran, Bryan Talbot, George Pratt, Stan Woch & Dick Giordano",

However, sometimes environmental conditions take a toll on the system and peace of mind is compromised. Extreme temperatures are a major problem in many areas, and when it is too cold or too hot, the heart is just not satisfied.\nHumidity is another issue that many homeowners have to deal with, but when air conditioning service is applied at regular times, there should be no problem creating a serene climate for all involved.\nWith so many allergies striking at different times of the year having the right air conditioning installation service company set your system up will help keep allergens under control. Things like dust and other allergy producing particles get trapped before they can enter the home when a unit is installed properly.\nThe object of good service is to regulate all of these conditions to create a more comfortable place to live. Following are some of the benefits that come with good air conditioning installation.\nWhen a system is installed correctly the house will be warm and toasty during winter months. Along that line, the hot temperatures of summer are nothing to worry about when the house is kept at a comfortable temperature inside.\nA good air conditioning system has everything required to help filter out particles of dust before fresh air is passed throughout the home. Dust carries pollen and other allergens, so this filtration system is a necessary part of maintaining good health for the entire family.\nWhen it is time to select the right comfort system for the home, a high quality heating and air conditioning unit should be the first choice. Brands that have a seal of approval from energy star are some of the best picks around. They have been tested and past stringent standards for energy efficiency.\nIf all that is required is service to an existing system it is recommended that homeowners use only those services that have the best reputation. They will be the ones that offer well trained technicians who have all the skills needed to do this job right. When it comes to your family\u2019s comfort, why would you want to do anything else?\nThere are some things that can be done by the homeowner to help an air conditioning and heating system run better between servicing. Make sure there is no accumulation of debris around the outside unit that can prevent proper air flow. Clean or replace filters one every month or when recommended by the manufacturer. These simple steps will go a long way in preserving this all important appliance, and maintaining a happy home.\n\u2190 Single Wide Mobile Home Remodeling Ideas\nHome Renovation_0078.jpg \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Coup d'Oreille\nInterview: Slum Village\nJ Dilla\u2019s beats are like ancient pottery\u2014handspun, imperfect, each a vessel of history that demands preservation. It\u2019s true\u2014when most people hear the name Slum Village, an underground hip-hop group formed in Detroit in the mid-90\u2019s, they think of the late, great J Dilla\u2014founding member and eminent producer who tragically passed away in 2006 from lupus. Dilla\u2019s jazzy, intentionally off-beat brand of instrumentals influenced countless hip-hop artists, from De La Soul to Common to Kanye West. Only a few years after his passing, Slum Village lost another founding member\u2014Baatin.\nYet the Slum Village family continues to push forward, celebrating the life and work of J Dilla and Baatin while forging a path of their own, often collaborating with Dilla\u2019s younger brother, rapper Illa J.\nOn their first stop touring with legendary hip-hop producer Pete Rock (presented by Leedz Edutainment), I caught up with the third Slum Village founding member, T3, as well as Young RJ backstage at The Middle East \u2013 Downstairs to talk about the legacy that J Dilla left, hip hop in Boston, their upcoming album, and more.\nJon: Over Slum Village\u2019s time as a group there have been many member changes. To what do you attribute the resilience of the group to keep making music?\nT3: Number one, people don\u2019t know the history of [Young] RJ. They don\u2019t know the history of Illa [J]. So, anybody that is part of Slum Village has put in numerous, numerous, numerous years. There is never a new guy out of nowhere. You know what I\u2019m saying? People don\u2019t know J\u2019s been affiliated with Slum since he was about 14. It\u2019s just all family\u2014that\u2019s what keeps it going. And we know the formula of how to do the music, being that Dilla mentored J, and me, and I was there since the beginning. So yeah, it\u2019s just easy to do for us. We feel like we need to keep the legacy going. Because we\u2019re one of the Detroit pioneers. That\u2019s why we do it.\nJon: What does T3 stand for?\nT3: My real name is RL Altman III, so that\u2019s the three. And my nickname is Uno, Dos, Tres. So it\u2019s T \u201cTres\u201d 3.\nJon: How\u2019d you get that nickname?\nT3: I don\u2019t know, because I\u2019m the third, I guess.\nYoung RJ: He was trying to be different.\nT3: I guess so. Even though my family\u2019s not Spanish (laughs). I was trying to be different. A little bit.\nYoung RJ: It was reaching!\nT3: Man, yeah it was reaching. A little bit. Yeah, a little bit. Okay.\nJon: Since you guys are performing with Pete Rock tonight, I want to ask. Last year the documentary Time Is Illmatic came out, which commemorates Nas\u2019 classic album Illmatic. Pete Rock produced the \u201cThe World Is Yours\u201d off of Illmatic. With that in mind, what seminal hip-hop album deserves a documentary about its making that doesn\u2019t currently exist?\nT3: The second Mobb Deep album [The Infamous \u2013 1995], A Tribe Called Quest\u2019s second album [The Low End Theory \u2013 1991]. That deserves a documentary.\nYoung RJ: Yeah, yeah, yeah but they came out with [the documentary] Beats, Rhymes, and Life.\nT3: But, just an album. I want to be in the studio\u2026I want to be there. The Roots. The third album\u2026the second, third album of The Roots\u2014Things Fall Apart. What\u2019s that, the fourth? The fifth?\nYoung RJ: Yeah I think that was like the fourth.\nT3: R&B\u2014the big D\u2019Angelo Voodoo album. All those deserve a documentary. Slum Village, our album, Fantastic, Vol. 2\u2014I would say that, too. And Volume 1. Or even the first Gang Starr album [No More Mr. Nice Guy \u2013 1989]. The first and second Gang Starr album.\nJon: Gang Starr\u2014that\u2019s a Boston connection right there. When you think of hip hop in Boston, what or who comes to mind?\nT3: I just recently figured out that there are a lot of people from Boston that don\u2019t play in Boston like they should. With Guru in mind\u2026a lot of people move to New York, and New York just takes them in. Just like people move to the west coast and people take them in. So, a lot doesn\u2019t come to mind with Boston and hip hop.\nJon: I asked Deacon from CunninLynguists the same question, and he said Benzino from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta. He\u2019s from Boston.\nT3: Oh, he\u2019s from Boston!\nJon: For better or worse.\nT3: At least he represents. But he\u2019s in New York, too, so\u2026\nYoung RJ: Who\u2019s from Boston that we might know?\nJon: Slaine, Statik Selektah\u2026\nT3: Okay! He\u2019s from Boston? Did not know that.\nJon: Termanology.\nT3: I do know Termanology. Yes, yes.\nJon: I recently watched one of your interviews on YouTube, and you mentioned YES, your upcoming album\u2014\nT3: That\u2019s coming June the 16th.\nJon: You mentioned some of the songs will have Dilla features on it. Do you have any idea how much of his material hasn\u2019t been released, versus how much has?\nT3: It\u2019s about\u2026roughly 150 beats? Which is still a lot of beats! It\u2019s about 30 full songs. Roughly. What do you think? Are my numbers off?\nYoung RJ: It\u2019s a lot of stuff, man. It\u2019s still stuff we\u2019re sifting through. We just found some new stuff before we left, and we did a song to it. We just turned the album in. It\u2019s a lot of music out there. A lot of good stuff, too. He\u2019s got some dope songs that nobody has heard.\nT3: He\u2019s got basically a whole album that nobody\u2019s heard. I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re going to do with it, so don\u2019t ask me! I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen with it. It\u2019s just in the Dilla vault of music!\nJon: Where is the Dilla vault of music? Do you have to request access from his family to use the music?\nT3: We are gatekeepers of some of his stuff, along with [Dilla\u2019s mom] Miss Yancey of course, Ma Dukes. We\u2019re definitely gatekeepers and make sure the right stuff comes out at the right time. You know what I\u2019m saying? And we want it to be set up right. Like the box set\u2014the Dilla box set. We want it to be a special occasion.\nJon: I don\u2019t know if you know, but in Boston at Berklee College of Music there\u2019s a class called The J Dilla Ensemble.\nT3: Oh! Dope, dope, dope.\nJon: With that in mind, what\u2019s the best way to celebrate Dilla\u2019s legacy?\nT3: He just wanted you to enjoy the music, bottom line. It\u2019s really just about enjoying the music. What do you think, RJ?\nYoung RJ: Unique stuff. Like the box set. Not just put a CD out and gouge the people for it. If you\u2019re going to do something, make it unique, where it\u2019s like \u201cOkay, this is one of a kind.\u201d Like, if you listen to the box set, the first idea on the box set he\u2019s talking about what he wanted, which was the album to look like the SP-1200. So basically what we did was brought what he wanted to fruition. Anything we feel like he wouldn\u2019t want, we don\u2019t do it. No matter what it is. People have come with money and checks, and we\u2019ve been like, \u201cThat ain\u2019t what he wants.\u201d\nJon: I don\u2019t know if you can speak to this since it\u2019s their relationship, but when Illa J and J Dilla were growing up, did they get along?\nT3: Yeah, they got along. He [Dilla] just treated him like you would treat a little brother. It wasn\u2019t fighting, it was more like, \u201cGet out of here, I\u2019m working!\u201d from what I saw (laughs). I didn\u2019t see everything, so I don\u2019t know. But, he had to sneak to be a part of Slum Village. It wasn\u2019t like, \u201cC\u2019mon down here and kick it.\u201d Naw.\nYoung RJ: You\u2019ve gotta remember the age difference, too. And, Illa was into hooping.\nT3: He was really into playing basketball.\nYoung RJ: He was a baby Michael Jordan.\nT3: So while we were in the basement a lot of times, when he wasn\u2019t listening to us, he would be outside hooping and dribbling. He thought he was going to be a hoop star at that time, before he got into music later on. But he was around. I saw him there. I used to come to the house almost every day. I used to come late at night, and then in the morning, upstairs they had like a daycare center. So it was a studio at a daycare center, and I\u2019d leave at 5am and see his mom, and when the kids started to come I knew I had to leave. Yeah, because Dilla used to just leave me in the basement. He would work and leave me in the basement so I could get my beats up because he wanted me to produce. So yeah, I used to stay there for nights and do that.\nJon: T3, Young RJ, thanks for taking the time.\nYoung RJ: We appreciate you, bro.\n90ship hopIlla JinterviewJ Dillamiddle eastPete RockrapSlum VillageT3Young RJ\nFreezing Churches, Icelandic Summers: Interview with Kaleo",

Today, we\u2019re headed across the way to 72 Mount Auburn St., the second and smaller Boston location of In Your Ear! Records. I don\u2019t want to discourage anyone from visiting this little shop \u2014 they\u2019ve got a great collection of classic records on their side \u2014 but trust me when I say that this one\u2019s only for the most dedicated of record hunters.\nFor one, you may feel like you\u2019re entering a dungeon when \u2014 after seeing a barred window and an eye-level sign, but no formal entrance \u2014 you realize that the store is actually located underground. Descending the stairs takes you to a small entryway with red walls; graffiti scribbled everywhere; indie leaflets and papers strewn about; and a handheld stereo propped on a shelf, doing its best to blast out some tunes to set the mood. There are a few doors to choose from once you\u2019re down there (setting up an awkward situation for any first-time visitors), so I\u2019ll give you a hint: Turn right.\nBecause I had been to this In Your Ear! once about a year ago, I can admit that I was prepared for the relative disorganization of the place. Even so, I wasn\u2019t too thrilled that absolutely nothing seems to have changed since then. It doesn\u2019t look like the owners have made any effort to touch up the space, move things around, or make the shop more attractive to visitors. In Your Ear! has been there since 1982, but with a barricade of unpacked cardboard boxes in front of the register to this day, it\u2019s almost like they never bothered to finish moving in. I can\u2019t tell if this seeming lack of order is intentional or not, but it certainly doesn\u2019t do anything to help a record store that\u2019s living in a cold, musty basement in the first place.\nAll is not lost, though. With 50,000 used LPs, CDs, cassettes, and DVDs crammed into the space at cheap prices, In Your Ear! proves that maybe looks aren\u2019t everything. Once you come to terms with the fact that yes, you\u2019re going to have to do some serious digging, and yes, it\u2019s probably going to smell, it\u2019s all smooth sailing. As I made my way from one end of the shop to the other, a Smiths record played in the background and the friendly owner offered to help me find anything I was looking for. Not to mention, I definitely chuckled once or twice at the handwritten commentary on some of the labels denoting the artist names.\nDespite the uncomfortable reach and craning of the neck required to look at the records in the rock section, a copy of The Beatles\u2019 Magical Mystery Tour (1967) \u2014 clownish album art and all \u2014 caught my eye. I\u2019m not sure that this Beatles staple needs any explanation besides the words \u201cStrawberry Fields Forever,\u201d \u201cPenny Lane,\u201d and \u201cAll You Need Is Love,\u201d but suffice it to say that this whimsical compilation of songs boasts some of the group\u2019s most celebrated work. Although the record was just reissued in 2012, I actually preferred seeing it in its dusty and beaten-up form \u2014 as if it had made the rounds on someone\u2019s turntable decades ago. There\u2019s something special about old records, passed down from generation to generation, relics of the past.\nStill, if you\u2019re a newcomer to the record-collecting scene, the Cambridge location of In Your Ear! probably shouldn\u2019t be your first stop. There is no denying that it\u2019s unorganized, cramped, and a little too grimy for comfort. Will it hold its ground for much longer in light of Harvard Square\u2019s other record store offerings? We\u2019ll have to see. The shop has a few redeeming qualities that shouldn\u2019t stop you from wandering in if you happen to pass by, but in the end, it\u2019s not worth a special trip.\nin your ear cambridgerecord hunter\nThe Record Hunter: Weirdo Records\n[\u2026] Harvard Square to get your hands on what you\u2019re looking for.

        "raw_content": "Conference Constraints - Doomed to Failure....by Dave Green\nI used to be a huge fan of averages. I could pore over lists of stats for hours on end and, sadly, found them to be endlessly fascinating. I think the thing I liked most was their simplicity. A simple number told me everything I needed to know about a rider. I could tell exactly how good he was, who he was better than, and how important he had been to his team. Few other sports could encapsulate a performer's worth in such a non-subjective manner.\nNowadays, I scarcely look at them. It's all become far too complicated.\nIn years gone by a rider's average was a simple calculation that yielded an unambiguous result. Over recent years the increasing number of complexities, variations and exceptions have made it virtually impossible to determine a rider's average. The number of arguments over averages has also increased dramatically.\nJust this winter we have seen Jason Lyons and Stuart Robson as central figures in the latest average wars. It seems that Lyons cannot revert to his 2004 Elite League average to ride in the 2005 Elite League, however Robson can use a 2003 Premier League average in the 2005 Premier League. That Robson's average was attained while 'doubling down' and Lyons came from his matches as a regular Elite League rider only increases my confusion. These decisions are clearly totally inconsistent and I'd love to hear the official justification for the discrepancy.\nAnother case that baffled me was the move of Eric Carrillo from Wolves to Glasgow last season. He was able to drop down on a three point average because the bonus points he scored in the Elite League were ignored when calculating his new Premier League average. I can never recall that happening before, although it may have, but it appeared to be a rather convenient way of ensuring that this Wolves' asset could be accommodated at another club.\nThe Elite League this season has elected to exclude bonus points from the averages they use for team building. This is an excellent move in my book, it's a much fairer means of comparison than the inflated averages that well balanced teams can often accrue. My only beef is that the Premier League hasn't followed suit, thus we now have the two leagues using similar but different methods of controlling team strengths. Is there really a need for this?\nI remain convinced that a points limit, based on averages, is the best way forward for the sport. It ensures that no club becomes too strong but it does not constrain team building in the way that grading systems do. All I'd like to see is a straightforward, transparent and consistent method of assigning averages to riders - is that really too much to ask?",

        "title": "FAucet Basics, Part 8: How to Buy a Faucet",
        "raw_content": "Faucet Basics: Part 8 How to Buy a Faucet\nChoosing a faucet is to a large extent a process of elimination. Typically your range of choice is limited by budget, style, and finish. Your budget may eliminate the very high-end choices, and your need for reliability should exclude the very low-end faucets.\nYou should not even consider a faucet that has not been certified as required by your local or state plumbing code. Uncertified faucets may not be lead-free and cannot lawfully be installed in your house.\nYou certainly want your faucet to match the style of your home. A contemporary faucet in a cape cottage or Arts & Crafts house may not be a good fit style-wise. But, even after you have eliminated the faucets you definitely do not want, there are still many considerations to think about.\nHow Much Should a Good Faucet Cost?\nA manufacturer's list price is a good indicator of the esteem in which a company holds its own products but not necessarily of their market value. Prices of many faucets, especially high-end faucets, are discounted steeply by retailers and suppliers. The prices you should be interested in (and the prices we publish in our reviews) are the actual \"street\" prices at which a faucet can be purchased.\nIt is entirely possible to pay more than $20,000 for a faucet but also possible to buy a good, well-made, stylish faucet for less than $100.00. Forget the style, and a solid, all brass faucet from a reputable company can be had for $35.00. Street prices for faucets these days are all over the place. Alternative retailing through the internet has created tremendous price pressure on established local retailers. For value received, faucet prices have never been lower.\n\"Top of Mind\" Faucet Brand Awareness\nOur survey question \u2014 When you think \"faucet\", what is the first faucet brand that comes to mind. \u2014 was answered by 1,771 readers. Discounting multiple answers from the same reader, blanks, and nonsense responses, here are the results. (The totals may not sum to exactly 100% due to rounding error.)\n10 (tied) 0.57%\n15 All Other 4.01%\nThe brand awareness survey reveals no surprises. The top three U.S. faucet makers \u2014 Moen, Delta, and Kohler \u2014 are the top brands in the minds of over 75% of potential customers \u2014 a reflection of their percentage of sales in the U.S. and Canada \u2014 also 75%.\nPhister ranks 5th in top-of-mind awareness, ahead of Grohe at 4th.\nImporters of Chinese and Taiwanese faucets 6%, The hundreds of other brands, including the upscale European brands, divide the remaining 19%.\nHansgrohe has placed in the top ten along with store brand faucet, Glacier Bay, sold by Home Depot.\nAs a general rule, faucets priced below $100.00 are suspect. They probably contain critical parts made of zinc or a zinc alloy, or worse, plastic.\nBut, if you are careful, you can find good, all brass faucets for less than $100.00. You just have to know what you are looking for. The golden rule of faucet buying is that \"weight equals quality\". Metal is heavier than plastic, and brass is heavier than zinc. A true, thick-walled brass faucet like one from the can easily tip the scales at a hefty 9 lbs. or more.\nTo see how much a good faucet should weigh, ask the sales clerk for a brass hose bibb \u2014 the faucet used outside your house. Your lavatory faucet should weight at least this much. A kitchen faucet should weight more.\nWe usually go the extra step of taking the faucet apart to see what it's made of. If its all brass, we burn a little incense to the fickle gods of good bargains. If it's plastic, we take it back.\nThanks and a big tip of the hard-hat to the many readers who suggested improvements to this page. Most of the suggested changes have now been incorporated.\nOur gratitude also to all who wrote in to suggest faucet lines that we ought to review. We regret that we cannot, however, review every faucet made. We limit our reviews to faucet lines with which we have some experience.\nThere are literally hundreds of boutique faucet companies and some major manufacturers that we don't know anything about simply because we have never bought one of their faucets. We do not mean to imply that by leaving a faucet out of these ratings the faucet is a bad product. It means only that we just don't know enough about the faucet to rate it. We appreciate the feedback, however, so keep it coming.\nIf you are a faucet manufacturer and feel we made factual mistakes about your company or products or have not treated your company or products fairly, let us know your specific objections and we will reexamine our review. Anything you write, however, is subject to being reprinted by us on this website for public view.\nContact us at Faucet Reviews.\nWe won't immediately veto a faucet that contains a little zinc. It depends on what part is zinc. A zinc handle or plate is not a deal killer. Zinc body or spout, toss it back in the sales bin.\nHow to tell if a faucet is zinc? Unscrew the and peek inside the spout (a keychain flashlight might be useful here). If it is \"brassy\" or brown, it's brass. If it's gray, black or silvery, it's zinc.\nMost faucets priced between $100.00 and $300.00 are going to give good service for many years. The key is good materials \u2014 brass and stainless steel \u2014 and a known brand name.\nThe faucets at the lower end of this range tend to be the traditional, established styles, while those at the upper end are often somewhat more au courant. Generally, the innards are about the same, so the quality of a tested and certified faucet at this level is rarely an issue.\nGetting parts might be. If the faucet fails, you will want to know that the company that made it will still be in business and any necessary repair parts are still available.\nAbove $300.00 you are paying a premium for style, status, finish, a prestige brand name, boutique manufacturing and/or small production runs. The quality of the mechanics of the faucet will probably not be much better than a faucet you can buy for less than $300.00, and in some cases are actually worse.\nEven at this level, prices run the gamut. Just for fun, we priced a KWC kitchen faucet that we know to be a good quality faucet. The price ranged from $300.00 to $805.00 from reputable online retailers.\nHigh-style faucets produced in limited runs tend to cost more, which is why a faucet mass-produced by faucet, although the quality of both faucet lines is generally very good.\nIf you are interested in buying a North-American-made faucet, there are a few things you should know.\nFirst, disregard the popular notion that almost nothing is manufactured in the U.S.A. or Canada these days. Not true, at least when it comes to faucets.\nSome manufacturing has been moved overseas but scads of excellent faucets are still manufactured by U.S. and Canadian companies in North America \u2014 faucets equal in quality and craftsmanship to any in the world. In fact, and here's a shocker: Most of the faucets sold in North America are still manufactured or assembled in North America. Foreign-manufactured faucets account for less than 20% of faucet sales in the U.S. and Canada.\nAdmittedly, it is sometimes hard to tell which faucets are made here. Companies that have moved their manufacturing overseas often take great pains to \"de-emphasize\" the fact. It's not that they necessarily conceal the fact. They just don't talk about it.\nfor example, despite its name and distinguished history as a pioneering U.S. sanitary wares manufacturer, does not manufacture or assemble a single faucet in the U.S. or Canada. It is now a Japanese-owned company, and while it still designs its faucets at its U.S. headquarters in New Jersey, the faucets are made in Mexico from components manufactured in Asia, mostly China. American Standard no longer has any faucet factories in the U.S. or Canada. They have all been closed at the cost or thousands of good American manufacturing jobs.\n(formerly Price-Pfister), although still American-owned (by Spectrum Brands \u2014 those wonderful folks who bring you the George Foreman Grill and Dingo Dog Treats), also does not manufacture any faucets in the U.S. or Canada. It also manufactures, in Mexico and China.\nPrice-Pfister once owned the largest foundry west of the Mississippi. Its Pacoima, California plant manufactured Pfister faucets for most of 40 years, making 1,500 faucets a day at its peak and employing 1,600 Americans.\nOn the other hand, a Japanese manufacturer, assembles hundreds of its sanitary ware products in the U.S. Dozens of Toto's sinks, toilets, and bath accessories quality as \"Made in U.S.A.\". Go figure! All of its faucets, however, are made in China, and imported.\nMany traditional U.S. faucet companies are still manufacturing, or at least, assembling faucets, in the U.S. including the old standards: and some less well-known old-line American faucet companies like Up-and-coming newcomers such as also manufacture or assemble their faucet in the U.S.\nBrasstech, the Masco manufacturing company, assembles and finishes its faucets in the U.S., although from mostly Chinese components.\nCanadian faucet manufacturers are still going strong, just not as strong as in times past. These include\nMany Canadian faucet companies no longer manufacture in Canada, if they ever did.\nWhen is it Made in North America?\nThere is no U. S. or Canadian law that requires faucets to disclose the amount of domestic content. Many companies do so, however, for advertising and marketing purposes. The \"Made in U.S.A.\" and \"Made in Canada\" labels still count for something. If a company voluntarily discloses its products' content, then it must comply with the \"Made in U.S.A.\" policy of the Federal Trade Commission or the Competition Bureau of Canada.\nTo qualify for a \"Made in U.S.A.\" or \"Product of Canda\" sticker on the box, a faucet must be \"all or virtually all\" made in the respective country. This means, at minimum, that\u2026\n\u2022\u2002The final assembly must be done on U.S. or Canadian soil. The final assembly must result in the \"substantial transformation\" of the faucet into its finished form. For example, it is not sufficient if all the company does is attach handles to a foreign-made faucet, because the resulting transformation is not \"substantial\". The faucet was already a faucet before the handles were attached. It was not transformed into a faucet by the final assembly.\n\u2022\u2002\"[A]ll or virtually all\" U. S. or Canadian made components. While some incidental parts may be made elsewhere, the critical parts must be made here. For \"Made in U.S.A.\" claims, the FTC's enforcement policy allows only a \"de minimis or negligible amount of foreign content.\" For example, a faucet may have \"hot\" and \"cold\" label buttons made elsewhere and probably still be \"Made in U.S.A.\". But, if its handles, cartridge or body were manufactured outside the country, it is not made in the U.S.A. because these are critical parts of a faucet, and not at all de minimis.\nThe Canadian rule is similar but less strict. For a faucet to be a \"Made in Canada\" the Competition Bureau requires that at least 51% of the total direct costs of producing or manufacturing the faucet have been incurred in Canada.\"\nFor well over a century American Standard was an American company.\nNo longer. Today the American Standard brand in America is owned by LIXIL Group, the giant Japanese building products company. But American Standard takes great pains to hide the fact that it is foreign owned, and that it manufactures almost all of its products outside the U.S.\nFor example, American Standard released this circular in a press kit. (Click to enlarge the image so you can read it). The item shown is one of only SIX plumbing products American Standard still manufactured at that time in the U.S., out of the thousands it sells here. Over 99.99% of its manufacturing is overseas \u2014 mostly in Mexico and China.\nToday, even this toilet is no longer made here. The plant in Nevada, MO, that made it was shuttered in 2015, ending the last 33 American Standard manufacturing jobs in North America.\nAmerican Standard Brand companies have exported nearly 30,000 American manufacturing jobs since the company was formed in 2008.\nIf American Standard really wants to make a contribution to American \u201ceconomic prosperity\u201d, as this press release suggests, it should bring those 30,000 jobs back home.\nAnd, we should do our part (as suggested by American Standard) by buying from a company that still makes its products here \u2014 in the U.S.A. \u2014 Like See the list below.\nBuy American, not American Standard.\nStill Made in the U.S.A.\nQuite a few faucets are still manufactured, or at least assembled, in North America. Many traditional faucet suppliers have reduced their domestic manufacturing but most still retain at least some U.S. factories. Here are the faucet manufacturers still making their faucets in the U.S. or Canada.\nAssembled in North America\nA faucet that includes substantial foreign content may be marked \"Assembled in U.S.A.\" when it has undergone its final assembly in the United States. The assembly must result in a \"substantial transformation\" of the faucet. Merely adding a few parts to the finished faucet, or bolting a few major components together \u2014 so-called \"screwdriver assembly\" does not qualify.\nManufacturers may also use \"Made in U.S.A. of Imported Materials\" or a similar qualifying language to describe a faucet assembled in the U.S. As a consumer you must remember that anything other than an unqualified \"Made in U.S.A.\" claim actually means \"Assembled in U.S.A.\" no matter how clever the qualifying language \u2014 \"90% Made in U.S.A.\" just means \"Assembled in U.S.A.\", nothing more.\nCanada produces more submarines than any other country except China, Russia, and the U.S., and that most Canadian submarines are privately owned?\nWhat Canadian company owns them and what are they used for?\nThere is no \"Assembled in Canada\" mark per se. The Candian equivalent of \"Assembled In U.S.A.\" is \"Made in Canada\" with a qualifying statement such as: \"Made in Canada from imported parts\" or \"Made in Canada with domestic and imported content\". Content made in the U.S. is \"foreign\" content for purposes of \"Made in Canada\".\n\"Buy American\" Laws\nThe federal Buy American Act (BAA), first enacted in 1933 in response to the first Great Depression and last amended in 2009 in response to the Great Recession, requires products and materials purchased by the Federal Government or used in federally funded public works projects have \"substantial\" American content. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act applies similar (although not exactly the same) rules to economic recovery projects funded under the Act.\nManufacturers wishing to provide products or materials to the U.S. government or for public works projects have to identify those that comply with ARRA/BAA requirements. These lists are available, usually by merely asking for them. While the requirements for domestic content under ARRA/BAA are not exactly the same as the Made in U.S.A. requirements of the FTC, they are close, and any item on an ARRA/BAA list is likely to be, at minimum, \"assembled\" in the U.S.\nOf course, some companies cheat. Home Depot is was sued for passing off some China-made products as ARRA/BAA compliant, and Fastenal has paid a multi-million dollar fine for the same offense. But, generally the ARRA/BAA lists are reliable. Keep in mind that these are usually not very descriptive. Often they are just lists of model numbers. But, if you have a faucet in mind and want to check it for Made in America, the lists are useful. Many companies publish them on the company website. For others, you will have to ask customer service for an e-mail copy.\nNow that we have a good grasp of faucet prices, style, configuration, certifications, finishes, warranties and how to determine made in U.S.A. status, we can go ahead a choose a faucet. If you have not read the previous seven sections. You should go back to where you left off, and resume.\nThere are still a few things to consider, however.\nChoose the Sink, Faucet and Countertop Together\nThere are many more faucet styles than there are sink styles. It's much easier to match a faucet to a sink than it is to match a sink to a faucet, so choose your sink first, then your faucet. Then go back and review your sink choice.\nMost drop-in sinks have a ledge at the back with one or more mounting holes for the faucet. The number of mounting holes must fit the faucet. If you have selected a single-hole faucet, you don't want a 5-hole sink. You have to cover those extra holes with hole covers, which is unsightly. If your faucet requires three holes but your sink has just one, you are going to have a mighty agitated plumber, although most plumbers know how to punch a hole in a stainless sink. If the sink is cast iron, you are just plain out of luck. Hope you kept the receipt.\nIf your sink is an undermount style, then the faucet will most likely mount through the countertop next to the sink. If your countertop is laminate or solid surfacing like Corian it can be drilled at the time it is installed. But, if it is stone or an engineered product, it may have to be drilled at the fabricator's shop before it is delivered.\nReach and Clearance\nThe faucet you choose should swing in an arc large enough to dispense water to a good portion of the sink's basin(s). This is the faucet's \"reach\", and it is determined by the horizontal distance from the spout opening to where it joins to the faucet base. This dimension will be printed in the faucet's specifications.\nThe faucet should also be tall enough so that you can fit your largest pot under the spout for filling. This is called the faucet's \"clearance\" and it is measured from the base of the faucet to the highest point of the spout's arch. You then need to add the depth of the sink to that measurement. If the faucet's clearance is 8\" and your sink is 6\" deep, the tallest pot you can fill is 14\" (actually about 13\", you need some room to maneuver the pot).\nKeep in mind, however, that pull-out faucets and faucets with side sprays greatly extend both reach and clearance and may eliminate any problems. Just place the pot on the side of the sink, and fill it with the hose.\nAnother option is a pot filler faucet. These are faucets installed over the range so you can fill a large pot without having to then lug it from the sink to the stove. We seldom install them because we don't like them. Putting a faucet over an expensive range without any means of draining the water is to us just a tad short of insanity, especially if you have children in the house who like to \"experiment\".\nSay \"No\" to Plastic\nPlastic has no place in a fixture meant to give many, many years of trouble-free operation. Look for all metal construction \u2014 by that, we mean only brass and stainless steel. Even avoid a plastic handle. (Acrylic plastic faceted handles imitate fine crystal glass handles on very high-end faucets but turn yellow and harbor mold).\nYou can usually tell a good all-metal faucet by its weight. It's heavy and feels solid. If you are not sure how heavy it should feel, ask the clerk to see a hose bibb (the outside faucet your hose attaches to). These are almost always heavy, solid brass. Your faucet should be at least this heavy. Test the faucet out of the box. There are often heavy things in the box (a hose weight, for example) that are not part of the actual faucet.\nIf parts of the body, spout or handles are made of plastic, you can feel the difference. Metal feels cold to the touch, plastic does not. Watch out for pull-down, pull-out sprays. Increasingly the heads are made of plastic. Manufacturers will tell you that plastic is better because it does not get hot and is more comfortable to hold. Plastic is not better, and we are finding quite a few problems with the new plastic spray heads.\nIf you are looking at single handle faucets with a ceramic cartridge, you may not be able to avoid plastic. It seems that all ceramic mixing cartridges for single handle faucets are now made mostly of plastic. Some feature a metal stem, and if you have a choice of a metal or plastic stem, choose metal every time. Because the cartridges are plastic, it is important that they meet or exceed the life-cycle standard of 500,000 on/off cycles specified in ASME A112.18.1/CSA B125.1. So, make certain the faucet is certified to U.S./Canadian standards.\nTurn the handle(s) full on and full off. The operation should be smooth with no hitches, and certainly no scratching or grinding noises. If the handle seems to bind or stiffen in certain positions, there is probably a problem with the faucet. Leave it alone.\nFirmly Attached Pull-Out\nMake sure any spout pull-out device operates smoothly without catching. It may be hard to tell before it is installed, however, because the hose counter-weight is not fitted until installation. Any pull-out spout can be damaged if it is pulled too far and too hard. You probably won't do this but your children will. Look for a solid metal-to-metal attachment. No pull-out is immune to damage but well-attached hoses resist damage better. Just look, don't yank. If you break it, you have probably just selected your next faucet. The faucet industry has been slow to adopt PEX as a hose material but it is slowly coming around. PEX is considerably stronger than the rubber and cord hoses now the standard.\nA Lifetime Valve\nJust about any faucet-buying advice you will read other than ours will tell you that the style and finish of a faucet are the most important elements to look for. (See, e.g. \"Before Buying That New Faucet, Think Finish First\", HGTV). Certainly, they are important. But, the critical element is the faucet valve. The valve is what makes your faucet work. If it fails, you don't have a faucet, you have a stylish, nicely finished chunk of useless metal. So, if you want reliable performance year after year after year, a good valve is essential.\nIf possible, get a valve that is all brass, aluminum or stainless steel. These materials are the most durable. Zinc or ZAMAC is acceptable, if not as durable. If you are shopping for a two-handle faucet, all-metal cartridges are still widely available. If you are considering a single-handle faucet with a mixing cartridge, your choices are more limited. Most cartridges for single handle mixing faucets are now all-plastic, or plastic with a metal stem. The metal stem is preferred. Only one cartridge maker that we know of still uses brass bodies, Fluehs, and it still uses some plastic in it mixer cartridge.\nNext, find out the life cycle rating of the cartridge. The fact that a faucet valve is \"certified\" is not enough information. You need to know by what standard. A cartridge should be certified under the U.S.-Canadian standard (See \"Make Sure the Faucet Is Certified\" below) which requires a life cycle test of 500,000 on/off cycles without failure. A faucet certified to meet the requirements of the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), Canadian National Plumbing Code (NPC) or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) has passed this test. Many cartridges used in foreign-made faucets are rated under the European EN817 (CE/EU) or Chinese GB18145-2003 standard that requires a paltry 70,000 on/off cycles.\nFinding the actual cartridge manufacturer is a little trickier. We like to know if a cartridge is made by a known manufacturer with a good reputation. If the online documentation is silent about the origin of the cartridge, we call customer service and ask. If the faucet uses a name-brand cartridge, the customer service rep will tell us right away. Companies that use a well-known cartridge like to talk about it, sometimes at great length. If customer service does not want to talk about the cartridge or has no information about the cartridge, we assume it is an off-brand.\nAs a last resort, we go to the store, haul out our handy pocket screwdriver and take the faucet apart to look at the identifying codes that are usually printed or engraved on the cartridge. This requires some agility and at least two people: one to do the work, and one to stand lookout. Store clerks can go a little nutso if they catch us at it, so one guy has to fend him off while the other dissects the faucet.\nAnother way, less adventuresome, of finding a faucet with a good valve, is read our faucet ratings at Faucet Reviews and Ratings. We identify the faucet companies that use well-known valves and cartridges by researching each company's valves. Usually, we can find out where the valves come from and who makes them. Then we tell you. But, sometime we can't, and we tell you that, too, and it generally means a generic, often Chinese, cartridge. We suggest you pick another brand.\nCertified Safe, Lead-Free and Reliable\nAll faucets sold or installed in the U.S. or Canada must be certified safe, lead-free and reliable. A faucet that is not certified cannot be lawfully imported, sold, offered for sale or installed in either country. Twenty years ago, it was nearly impossible to buy an uncertified faucet. They were simply not sold here. Today it is a different story. Uncertified faucets are widely available. Our research has shown that over 70% of the faucets sold on internet venues such as Amazon, Sears.com, DHGate, and Rakuten are uncertified, and therefore illegal for sale. All of these sites have policies against the sale of unlawful merchandise, and none of them seem to enforce the policy when it comes to faucet sales.\nWhat we did find on some of these sites, such as DHGate, was wholesale misbranding, with Chinese faucets being falsely identified as Delta, Moen and Kohler faucets.\nBuilder sites such as Faucets Direct and Faucet Warehouse do a better job of screening out uncertified faucets. They seldom appear on those sites, and when they do are, in most cases, immediately removed once we point them out. Be careful, however, of Build.com and its associated sites. When we pointed out the contraband faucets for sale it this website, we were asked, politely, to mind out own business.\nNever buy a faucet you have not heard of.\nUnknown brands have often justly earned their obscurity.\nJerry Francis Leonard, MSE, PE\nOnline sites connected with big lumber stores: Home Depot, Lowes, and Menards also do a good job of keeping uncertified products from being sold, as do Ace, True Value, and Do-It-Best hardware store sites.\nOnline auction sites such as e-Bay are some of the worst offenders, even though they also have policies prohibiting the sale of unlawful merchandise. In a count conducted in April 2016, we found 63% of the new-in-the-box lavatory faucets offered for sale on e-Bay were illegal to sell in the U.S. or Canada. In many listings, the brand name of the faucet was omitted \u2014 a sure sign that the faucet is illegal \u2014 and some listings go so far as to proclaim that certification \"does not apply\" to the faucet.\nBut, the worst offenders of all are internet retail sites originating in China. These sites totally disc regard U.S. and Canadian laws regarding certification. We found no certified faucets at all on AliExpress, LightInTheBox, or FaucetSuperDeal, even though these sites target U.S. and Canadian customers, even going so far as to establish fulfillment centers in the U.S. to reduce shipping time.\nSo, where can you be sure that the faucet you are buying is legal in the U.S. and Canada? First, most faucets made or assembled in the U.S., or Canada are legal. There is one exception, however. All of the German and Italian faucets sold in the U.S. and Canada are legal.\nBut, while many Chinese- and Taiwanese-made faucet brands are careful to comply with U.S. and Canadian laws, many do not bother. And, determining whether a brand of Asian faucet is legal for sale in North America often requires a lot of sleuthing. But, the best course is just common sense. If you have never heard of a brand, check it out thoroughly. Our faucet reviews can help. We identify faucets that are being sold unlawfully without certifications or compliance with federal regulations. If the faucet is a brand you have never heard of, or worse, being sold with no brand name mentioned, avoid it like malaria. This is especially true if the faucet is being sold through an online auction site like e-Bay or an internet general merchandiser like Amazon. A no-name faucet from one of these sites is almost guaranteed to be uncertified.\nNever buy an uncertified faucet. Certification is the only way to tell if a faucet is free of toxic materials and safe to use. All plumbing codes in use in the U.S. and Canada require that a faucet be tested and certified to meet both ASME A112.18.1/CAS B125.1 (safety and reliability) and ANSI/NSF 61/9 (lead-free/drinking water safety) standards. Without certification, you also don't know anything about how a faucet is likely to function over the long term. Certification testing ensures that a faucet meets at least a minimum standard of robustness and durability. With an untested, uncertified faucet, you can't possibly have any idea how well it will function.\nThere are two ways you can do so. The easy way is to read our review of the faucet. We will tell you what certifications the company has. Or, you can ask customer service for a copy of the ASME A112.18.1/CAS B125.1 (safety and reliability) certification, the ANSI/NSF 61 drinking water safety certification, and the ANSI/NSF 372 lead-free certificate. A faucet must have all three.\nIf the customer service rep does not know about certifications, or cannot e-mail you the certification documents, pass it by. It's not certified. We always ask the customer service rep to circle or highlight the model name or number of the faucet on the certification sheet. If the model name or number does not match the faucet you intend to buy, pass it by.\nBeware of forged and altered certification documents. They are common. Unscrupulous sellers such as commonly provide altered or forged certificates or try to pass off a certificate from a totally different company as proof that their faucets are certified. False certificates are getting to be a real problem.\nTo view an altered certificate and compare it to a real certificate, click here.\nLook for a faucet that is easy to clean. You have to be able to get your fingers in those small recesses. Remember that even the most stylish faucet does not look so good crusted and rusted. fingerprints can be a problem with some faucet finishes. Polished stainless steel is a particular culprit but almost all highly polished faucet finishes will show online and water spots that have to be wiped off from time to time. Some manufacturers recommend using a household wax on the faucet to reduce spotting and online. (Before you do this, go to the faucet seller's website to see if a specific wax is recommended. Using the wrong wax may void your warranty.)\nLiving finishes will show dirt, oil from your hands and from cooking, water spots, staining, fading and color changes. None of this is a problem because that's what they are supposed to do. In a sense, living finishes are the easiest to take care of because you don't have to take care of them. They are supposed to look like they are not being taken care of. It's a part of the finish. However, a little wax will also help keep water-spotting to a minimum. Use the wax the faucet company recommends.\nMost manufacturers publish maintenance and cleaning procedures for their faucets which should be followed. Almost all recommend against harsh detergents and any sort of scouring \u2014 both of which can ruin a finish very quickly. We find the original Windex to be an effective cleaner that does no harm.\nSelect a faucet that matches your personal style but still is easy to maintain and keep spotless with just a little effort.\nStep by Step Guide to Buying a Faucet\nNow that you have read all of the parts of this article, starting here, you have all the information you will need to select a faucet that will give you a lifetime of reliable, trouble-free service. Now let's walk through the actual process of buying a faucet.\nStep 1: Read Faucet Basics\nRead all of the sections of this multi-part article on faucets, starting here. Already read them? Great! You now have the basic information needed to buy a good, reliable faucet that will give you a lifetime of trouble-free service. You are ready to buy a faucet.\nStep 2: Select a Faucet\nFollow the guidelines on this page to choose a faucet that meets your needs.\nStep 3: Read our Review of the Faucet Company\nRead our review of the faucet company. Basic information about the company that will help you decide whether its faucets are something you will be comfortable buying as a lifetime investment. If after reading the review, you are not confident in the company, go back to Step 2 and choose another faucet.\nStep 4: Read the Faucet Warranty\nGo to the company website and read the faucet warranty. Sometimes these are hard to find. If you can't find it, or its not on the website, call customer service and ask for an e-mailed copy.\nYou will be able to find out how confident the company is in the durability, reliability, and longevity of its faucets, and if its faucets have any weak points that might cause the faucet to fail. Anything less than a lifetime warranty should be suspect. If you do not know how to analyze a warranty, go back and re-read Faucet Basics: Faucet Warranties.\nIf the company will not provide you with a pre-sale copy of its warranty on the faucet of your choice, go back to Step 2 and choose a faucet from another company.\nStep 5: Get the County of Origin for the Faucet\nIf our review shows the company's faucet to be made in more than one country, call customer service to get the county of origin of the faucet.\nAnything but a straight answer should be suspect. Be especially wary of the evasive or equivocal answer like: \"This faucet is made in several countries, so we don't know\". If you can't get a straight answer, go back to Step 2 and choose another faucet. If the company says the faucet was made in Wisconsin but the box it comes in says \"Made in China\", don't hesitate to send it back. It has been misrepresented.\nStep 6: Get the Listing Certificates for the Faucet\nAny reputable faucet company should be able to provide you with listing certificates for the faucet immediately. They are requested all the time by plumbers and plumbing code officials to verify the faucet's bona fides. It is not an unusual or rare request.\nThe certificates should show that faucet has been tested and complies with the three mandatory standards for faucets sold in North America: ASME A 112.18.1/CSA B125.1 for overall safety and reliability and with the lead-free requirements of ANSI/NSF 61.9. These are often three separate certificates but may have been consolidated into two, or even one, depending on the practices of the organization that issued the certificate.\nWe usually ask the agent to circle or highlight the model number or name on the certificate so we can easily spot it without having to wade through dozens, if not hundreds of model names or numbers.\nIf the company cannot provide a certificate for each standard clearly showing the model name or number of the faucet you are considering for purchase, pass it by. It is very likely not certified no matter how often or how loudly the customer service rep says it is. To see what a Certificate of Listing looks like, click here for an example from IAPMO, the most widely used certifying agency, for Cifial faucets. Other certifying organizations have slightly different certificates.\nBe wary of forged or altered certificates. Any valid certificate will contain the company's name, an indication of the standard used for testing (ASME A 112.18.1/CAS B125.1 or ANSI/NSF 61.9), and the actual model name or number of the faucet you are considering for purchase. If any of those three things is missing, it is probably not a valid certificate. If you are buying from Acme Faucet Company but the name at the top of the certificate is Szechuan Wang Shu Happy Golden Way Faucets Co., it is not valid for Acme. Some faucet companies will try to pass off a certificate for another company as their own.\nTo see what a forged or altered Certificate of Listing looks like, click here (.pdf). This altered listing certificate was e-mail to our reviewer by to prove the certification of its faucets. Not only was it altered to remove the name of the company that had actually received the certification but it is not even a certificate for faucets. It certifies stainless steel sinks.\nIf you think you got a forged or altered certificate, e-mail it to us, and we will check it out.\nStep 7: Calculate the Price-to-Value (P/V) Score\nIf you are comparing two or more faucets, calculate the price-to-value (P/V) score of each faucet to determine which is the better value. Get the average company rating from our review of the faucet company. Divide the average rating by the price of the faucet and multiply the result by 100 (PV=R\u00f7P\u00d7100).\nFaucet Average Rating (R) \u00f7 Price (P) \u00d7 100 PV Score\nA (6+7)\u00f72 = 6.5 \u00f7 $400.00 \u00d7 100 = 1.625\nB (7+9)\u00f72 = 8 \u00f7 $475.00 \u00d7 100 = 1.684\nEven though Faucet B is more expensive, it is likely to be of better quality to offset its higher price and has the higher price-to-value score, so it is the better buy.\nStep 8: Pay with a Credit Card\nMost likely, since you have carefully selected a faucet using all of the information to be found in these articles, your faucet will arrive in working order with all of its parts. But, if it does not, then your first recourse is to contact the seller and get a replacement or refund. But, if the seller is not willing to make it right, you are entitled to cancel the credit card transaction. Credit card purchases are protected under the Fair Credit Billing Act. This law, administered by the Federal Trade Commission, gives the consumer the right to withhold payment on a misrepresented, poor-quality or damaged merchandise purchased with a credit card. Contact your credit card company for the complaint form to fill out. Some allow you to fill it out online.\nStep 9: Inspect the Faucet\nWhen you receive the faucet, open the box to make certain all of the parts have been provided. This may require you or your plumber to read the installation instructions. If anything is missing, a call to customer service will often get you the missing parts in a few days. But, also read the installation instructions to see if they are intelligible. International companies such as Ikea or American Standard often use pictures and diagrams in place of text. If you can't figure out the instructions, most likely your plumber can't either.\nStep 10: Save the Paperwork\nOnce your new faucet is installed, put the installation instructions, warranty certificate, receipt, spare parts, special tools, and the installer's business card in a plastic baggy and tape it to the back of the sink cabinet (or hang it on a hook).\nIf your faucet breaks, you have all the information you will need to make a warranty claim. And, even if you forget where you put it, the plumber will find it soon enough when he starts work on your defective faucet.",

The manager, Toshi, had met his wife in New Zealand of all places. But the daughter Amo was born in Hakuba. Japan has an agreement with a number of countries among which are Germany, France and Canada, that you can get a 1 year visa with right to get a job. And possible prolonging. He'd been there for 2 years, while his wife had been there for 7.\nThe entire family\nWhen I asked about the rice hanging to dry, he said, that normally it was cut by machine and later\nhung up. The entire family are out to wave goodbye. Such sweet people!\nI don't know exactly what I'll meet, but the sign saying Nagano 42 km is like I was hoping.\nThe view from a writing place, just before the nearly disaster\nAnd then a disaster comes close! Is it a puncture? An extra bump with the behind in the saddle\nconfirms this. Shit. Off with the luggage to have a look. The rear wheel - no wonder. When I get\ntyre and tube off, there's no hole to be found immidiately, but the air disappears out of the tube,\nwhen I pump it in. But the tyre!!!\nThat's what a worn out Schwalbe Marathon Tyre looks like\nIt's worn all the way through at one spot and others are coming. When I find the hole in the tube, it's also worn through, there where the hole in the tyre is. Then 40 km is suddenly a long way...\nThere's only one thing to do. I have to reinforce the tyre and I've brought an old tube, which is cut up and glued to the inside of the tyre. And then a normal fix of the tube and tube and tyre on again.\nBut it's with a jumping heart I go on, waiting to hear a bang from behind every second. But all goes well...\nAfter having worked my way up a bit, there's a tunnel followed by a lo-o-ng descent.\nThere's only about 18 km left, when signs start telling about a pay road. A tunnel is coming up, and I see from a long distance the road, that I will have to follow up across the mountain, if I can't go through the tunnel.\nBut there's a sidewalk through. So one can go on it? And I do of course.\nAfter having passed through the toll comes up. There's a man ina cage in the middle, so he can serve both directions, but I'm going out in the sidewalk. Never the less a poster announces the price for every vehicle. A bicycle is 20 Y = 0.15 \ufffd. So be it.\nI stop and goes over to him. First he looks like he will refuse to take any money, but then comes his japanese obedience to him and he shows with his fingers it costs 20 Y. And I give it to him and he comes all the way out of his cage just to wave at me, when I go on. I'm more or less expecting him to salute.\nThe impossible thing happen and I get safe to Nagano. But I've forgotten it's sunday. Never the less there should be a bicycle shop that's open from 1pm.\nThere's a festival today in Nagano. When I sit down at a vacant half of a bench to eat bread and bananas, somebody comes to take my picture. And another, who looked like he'd wanted to, comes too, when they've talked. The last one has something looking like a fisheye, he puts right up in my face, while I'm eating an apple. I guess they're from a local paper.\nIn T.I. I asked, if she could call 1166 Backpackers to find out, if they had anything vacant. She didn't answer, but found a pamflet and showed me where it was in the map. I think it's the first time, I've bumped into this, that should be quite common: That you never say no, but comes around it in some way. I would have prefered: No, we don't do that. But it's entirely in the japanese\nspirit: noone must feel uncomfortable.\nIt was hard to find the bicycle shop. He didn't have a 26 x 1,75 tyre. I think he mostly get stuff that's ordered by someone. He had 2 Schwalbe tyres of a type I wouldn't have had anyway, and which apparently was ordered by someone. In the end he came up with a solution, which suited me fine. He had a used tyre of my type I could have for 1000 Y.\nSo now I ought to be able to get to Narita on wednesday.\nI found 1166 Backpackers just before he closed to come back at 4pm, so I put my luggage there.",

        "raw_content": "Created to Be Loved \u2192\nThe Eighth Station of the Cross \u2013 Jesus Speaks to the Women\nNot long ago I went on pilgrimage to Lourdes. It was a wonderful trip, and I am very appreciative of the Knights of Columbus for having sponsored this opportunity for veterans to go to the International Military Pilgrimage to Lourdes which occurs each year (this year being the 59th) through their Warriors to Lourdes program.\nOne of the events of the pilgrimage was walking the Stations of the Cross. Lourdes has a fantastic set of life-size Stations that wind through a wooded area behind and above the Basilica. As you walk and experience the Stations, you are treated to magnificent views of the French countryside and the Pyrenees in the distance.\nI was enjoying the contemplation evoked by the devotional readings for each of the Stations. A fine priest guided us with a voice that transported you to the Station he described; it was easy to enter into the scene as he read and prayed.\nThen we got to the Eighth Station \u2013 Jesus Speaks to the Women. Now there are a variety of readings associated with the Stations of the Cross. Some run along certain themes or are tuned to certain intended participants. Personally, it is a rare day that I find a set of readings associated with the stations that I do not like. I consider the Stations to be the most accessible means by which a person can tangibly join in and experience the way Jesus suffered on our behalf. I am almost always deeply moved when walking through \u2013 praying through \u2013 the Stations of the Cross. This day was no different, but until we got to the Eighth Station I was not fully involved. As we looked at the giant statuary representing Jesus and the women that He met along the Way to the Calvary the priest read, \u201cBut Jesus said to them, \u2018Weep not for Me but for your children\u2019.\u201d\nAt that moment, I was plunged headlong into the depth of the meaning of that Station. You see just prior to going to Lourdes I learned of some troubling news within my family and had been praying about it ever since. In fact, my focus on that is what had kept me from fully engaging the previous Stations and some of the other activities in which we had already participated. Now I hear the words of Jesus \u2013 Weep not for me but for your children. I was overwhelmed \u2013 I heard \u2013 I interpreted this as, \u201cI have chosen this. I carry this Cross to bear the sin, the damage, the hurt, the anguish on your behalf. Yet you are still choosing to live in the damage that does nothing but cause you pain. Weep for your children for they too will feel the pain. Pain that only continues because people refuse to follow Me.\u201d We finished the remaining Stations, walking from one to the next, but in my head I never left the Eighth Station \u2013 Weep not for Me but for your children.\nA few days later I was back in the United States, and immediately there is news of a suicide bomber in Manchester killing young people at a concert. Just another day and an ice cream shop frequented by children in Baghdad was bombed, then children in the Philippines are killed by terrorists, and just now another attack in London killing people, each one somebody\u2019s child, by vehicular attack followed by knife attacks. Weep not for Me but for your children.\nIn the Lord\u2019s Prayer we pray for God\u2019s will to be done on Earth as it is in Heaven, but then we go back to following our own will and ignoring that of God. As long as people choose self-will over God\u2019s will, we shall weep for our children.\nWill you join me and pray and act on that prayer that God\u2019s will be done here on Earth? It is time we start blessing our children so that we can stop weeping for them.\nThis entry was posted in Christian Living, National Problems and tagged Blessings, Burdens, Children, Eschatology, Faith, Pilgrim, Pilgrimage, Prayer, Sin, suffering, Violence.

        "title": "Morning Service on Sunday 18 February 2018 - Events - St John's United Reformed Church, Orpington",
        "raw_content": "Morning Service for the First Sunday in Lent, conducted by the Revd. J. Millington\nThis sermon is taken from Luke 4, verses 1-13; Psalm 25, verses 1-10\nWalking the Way: What do you want?\nJust suppose you were lost in a very remote place, miles away from civilisation. And suppose you were hungry\u2026very hungry\u2026dangerously hungry and you picked up a stone and you knew that you had the power to turn this stone into bread- would you do it? Yes! It sounds like a very sensible idea.\nAnd when you think about it, people have actually been \u201cturning stones into bread\u201d for thousands of years, ever since the human race took up agriculture. Is this not what agricultural scientists, farmers and gardeners do all the time: they look at a piece of ground which has nothing on it except earth and stones and they work out how they can use this ground to produce food. Even today there are very gifted people spending long hours experimenting in how to raise food for hungry people in areas where the soil is too dry or too stony to raise food naturally. In the Bible itself, God is praised for his power that causes \u201cthe earth to yield fruit and grain for the making of bread.\u201d So, \u201cturn stones into bread, Jesus\u201d- what is unreasonable about that?\nOr just suppose you are a very capable, organising kind of person (and in this area I know that a good many people are, so it is no good trying to look modest\u2026). Suppose you were a person with excellent project management skills, people skills, someone who can sum up a situation in a glance, whether in a company or a political group or a neighbourhood; suppose you were this person and you saw a cause dear to your heart where everything was going wrong and being badly handled, would you not want to \u201cpile in\u201d and sort it out? Yes, probably. It would take a lot of personal commitment but if we had the necessary time and energy and support, we would do it. And again, in the Bible, God often tells someone \u201cyou have the gifts and the opportunities to sort out this challenging situation. Get on with it.\u201d So \u201cJesus, get out there and take charge.\u201d What is unreasonable about that?\nAnd finally, just suppose that you had a way of proving beyond all doubt that there IS a god? Think of gathering together your cynical colleagues, your disinterested family members, your struggling friends, who you know to be in need of faith but who will not be convinced \u2013 imagine that you could gather them all together and do something so spectacular (like jumping off our tower knowing that an angel would catch you and I am not asking for volunteers) so spectacular that they would be forced to admit that yes, there is a god? Think of the awesome effect on their lives. Think of the strength and the hope and the comfort they would gain. Think of the good they would go on to do in the world. If you knew you could prove there is a god, would you not do it? Yes, maybe\u2026..not too sure.\nBut again, in the Bible, God\u2019s people are told to make known his name; make known his power; stand up for his glory. So \u201cJesus, let your power be seen, so that all may glorify God.\u201d What is unreasonable about that?\nThere is a reflection on the story of Jesus\u2019 temptations from the Iona Community which begins, \u201cthe devil was a very reasonable man.\u201d I suppose he had to be. After all, if we are confronted by something with horns, tail and pitchfork, cackling with demonic laughter like a cartoon baddy, something might just warn us that this person is bad news. But someone presenting what sound like perfectly reasonable arguments is far more difficult to ignore.\nWalking the Way: living the life of Jesus today. The United Reformed Church is challenging every single congregation to explore what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ in twenty-first century UK. Neither the programme nor the resources are proscriptive: everyone doing the same thing at the same time- because Walking the Way is a very personal thing. It is not even primarily about organised religion. It is not there to offer us new structures and systems and ways of doing things in church. It is about each individual Christian (or almost Christian) walking the way of Jesus Christ and discovering how they do that 24/7, not just during the hours when they are in church.\nOrganised religion/church life is no more than a vitally useful tool to help us follow Jesus. The church is a means to an end, not an end in itself. Many people, if asked what their faith \u201cwish list\u201d would be, would include \u201cto see a lot more people our in church.\u201d Fair enough. Would not we all like that? But more-people-in-church is not and never has been the same thing as more-Christians-living- the- life- of- Jesus-in-the- world. Think about it\u2026..\nAs we start looking at Walking The Way then, the first and most obvious question to me, was, \u201cWhat do you want?\u201d Assuming that none of us have been coerced into Christianity, this faith is one we have chosen, what do you, personally, hope to gain by following Jesus?\nOver my years in Christian ministry I have learned two things: first, that most people do not find that an easy question to answer, especially to a minister because they think they might offer the \u201cwrong\u201d answer. Second, that when people do allow themselves to think seriously and make an answer, there are almost as many answers as there are people. But here are a few I have heard: what do you want from following Jesus?\nI want to be part of something greater than just my own physical existence\nI want to know that I am loved\nI want something to give me hope, not only for my own life but for the world in general\nI need to be freed up from the things that are destroying me\nI hate feeling guilty and inadequate and I want someone stronger than myself to help me\nI need a shape and a purpose to my life\nI want to believe that I can make a difference for good in the world\nI want to be glad of who I am rather than trying to be what everyone else wants\nI need healing from intolerable pain\nI need hope in a bad time that my life will still be worth living\nI want to belong somewhere.\nI need to believe in eternity.\nIn a play by Andrew Young, based on the life of Nicodemus, that man in John\u2019s Gospel who was attracted by Jesus but followed only at a distance, Nicodemus is asking John why he had followed Jesus so much more closely, was it to do with those amazing miracles he did? And John replies, \u201cit was indeed; more miracles than one. I was not blind and yet he gave me sight. I was not deaf and yet he gave me hearing. Nor was I dead, yet me he raised to life.\u201d\nThose first disciples did not follow Jesus \u201cfor the money\u201d because he had none. Nor did they follow him for political power because he had none. He could do miracles but the people who followed him only because of the miracles were the ones who fell back when anything was asked of them. They wanted their religion to be more of a spectator sport or a consumer choice and this was not what following Jesus was about. Following Jesus is about committing yourself to a relationship with God and, like any relationship, it will demand your life but will also become your life. All of those reasons people gave for following Jesus might be summed up as \u201cI want to get a life.\u201d\nGoing back then to those apparently reasonable things Jesus was tempted to do, we might be able to understand why they were not unreasonable but, shall we say, inappropriate.\nYes, thousands of years ago, we learned how to raise food from the ground. From the soil and the stones we made bread. Then we wanted jam on our bread. Then we wanted pretty plates to eat the bread and jam from. Then we wanted china cabinets to store the pretty plates. Then we wanted dining rooms to store the china cabinets. Then we wanted larger houses with more rooms to store more cabinets, to hold more china because we were eating more and more bread and jam. Then we needed Weight Watchers\u2026..\nPhysical desire is never satisfied. Jesus did not say that we do not need bread. He said that we do not live by bread alone. A life totally given over to physical desires will never be satisfied. And, as we are frequently told nowadays, a purely consumer culture is becoming a highly dangerous one: causing catastrophic levels of pollution to the environment, inviting corruption and crime motivated by greed, squeezing the poor to enrich the wealthy and if it carries on in the way it is going there will be a catastrophe. Jesus came to offer men and women \u201ca life\u201d and if he had used his power to turn stones into bread, he would have been leading us down a blind alley.\nSuppose he had done what a lot of his followers hoped he would do: take over the kingdom by force; get rid of the Roman Emperor and set himself up to rule instead? Would that not have made a better and fairer world? For a while, maybe. But I have yet to see or hear of a powerful ruler, who has coerced whole nations into submission and imposed even what looks like a totally fair and just system of government who has not had people turn against them or try twist their rules into something corrupt. People are not changed by having a certain lifestyle imposed upon them. They are changed from within. Someone who wants to see the world transformed into the kingdom of God will not do this purely by setting up better systems of government. The kingdom of God starts from within, as men and women learn to love God and to let God love them. For Jesus to sit on the Emperor\u2019s throne would have been a false message to those wanting a life.\nAnd proving the existence of God by an amazing miracle? It would not work, would it? According to our present scientific proof, if a person jumps from a great height without any visible means of support, such as a parachute or bungee-jumping rope, that person will crash to the ground and die. So yes, someone who is seen instead floating gently to the ground would raise a lot of questions. But the people of Jesus day would never even have seen a parachute and if they had watched Jesus float gently to the ground, enveloped in this large white cloud-shaped object, they could well have believed that this was some kind of angel and therefore yes, this was proof that God was on Jesus\u2019 side. But two thousand years later we know different. And with every century that passes, we shall know more. So any \u201cscientific\u201d proof in 2018 that there is a god might well be dismissed as nonsense by 2118.\nJesus said that you cannot \u201ctest\u201d God. If God is God then He cannot be tested by any rules that are subject to our limited understanding. The \u201cproof\u201d of God, he said, lies in the lives of those who love Him. I almost forgot\u2026. A huge reason why people choose to follow Jesus is that they have seen the awesome change that faith in Christ has made to others.\nWhat do you want? A life. And Jesus is not going to lie to those who follow him. He is not going to offer them those things which will drain life out of them. He is going to offer that which will make life rise up in them.\nSome years ago, I was talking with Kathleen, a retired Minister and she told me of a mother who had confided her fears for her daughter, who was just about to leave home for University. The girl was very attractive and her mother was afraid that this could lead her into compromising and potentially dangerous situations.\n\u201cDoes your daughter believe that she is attractive?\u2019 asked Kathleen.\n\u201dOh yes,\u201d said the mother.\n\u201cWell in that case, I don\u2019t think you need worry too much. It is the girls who believe that they are deeply unattractive who are more vulnerable. They will allow themselves to be led into dangerous places simply in order to feel accepted and valued.\u201d\nTom Wright, a popular Christian writer, pointed out that in each of the three accounts of Jesus\u2019 time in the desert, wrestling with temptation, this happens immediately after his baptism when he hears the voice of God telling him, \u201cyou are my wonderful Son and I am well pleased with you.\u201d So, says Tom Wright, Jesus goes out into the desert place conscious that he is loved and valued by God and it is this that gives him the wisdom and the strength to resist temptation.\nWalking the Way- what do we want? To get a life, a real life and a real life grows from knowing yourself loved. It is not a soft option. Spoiled children- children to whom parents always give in and who get everything they ask for- spoiled children do not feel loved. They feel feared. They know their parents are scared of upsetting them and this makes those children very frightened.\nTo know ourselves loved means that we have space to think about what we really want and what we really need and that there is someone there who has promised to guide us into truth. To know ourselves loved means that we shall be allowed to make mistakes and get ourselves into a serious mess but there will be someone who can help us pick up the pieces and start again, without recrimination. To know ourselves loved means that, although we may face some tough challenges and dark places, there will be someone who will make sure we have every strength and support we need. And, as love is something that grows and develops, to know ourselves loved means that we shall always have love to share with each other.\nWhat was it we worked out with the children? That there are 166 hours in the week when we are not in the Sunday Morning Service. So, if you want to \u201cWalk the Way and live the life of Jesus today\u201d then remind yourself every now and again over the next 166 hours that you are loved and valued by God. And then ask yourself, \u201cwhat difference does knowing myself loved and valued by God make to the way in which I am living my life?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "HomeLivingArrival\nEstonia is a small EU member state located in Northern Europe and is a part of the Schengen area. There are many different travel options \u2013 but most international students probably see their first glimpse of Estonia from a plane or ship. Whether one is travelling by air, sea or land, none of the ports of entry are far from the town centre. Tallinn is accessible from everywhere in the world by plane and, currently, nearly 30 cities have direct connections with Tallinn.\nThe biggest international airport in Estonia is located in Tallinn and you can fly direct from most major cities in Europe. Tallinn Airport is located just 3 km from the city centre and is currently serving 20 flight routes. Furthermore, Riga International Airport in Latvia is connected to over 83 destinations and it cooperates with more than 21 airlines. There are both flight and bus connections from Riga Airport to Tartu and Tallinn.\nInformation about airlines, schedules and customs is also available on the homepage of Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport. Information about direct flights to Tartu is available on the homepage of Tartu Airport.\nEstonian capital Tallinn is a seaside city with plenty of options available if you like to travel by sea. You can come to Estonia by ship from Helsinki and Stockholm and, additionally, from Rostock and St. Petersburg in the summer. Helsinki is a mere hour and a half away on an express ship in the summer and larger ships will take you there in 4 hours throughout the year.\nThe main ferry operators are Tallink, Viking Line and Ecker\u00f6 Line:\nHelsinki port in Finland is 80 km from Tallinn and it takes less than 2 hours on a ferry. During the summer season (from May to September), boats sail every few hours.\nStockholm ports in Sweden are 380 km from Tallinn and ferries travel once a day in both directions (you spend the night at sea).\nInternational coach lines connect Tallinn and Tartu to Europe, and trains travel eastward.\nThree coach companies, Luxexpress and Ecolines, operate comfortable direct connections to all the biggest cities in Germany, Poland, Netherlands, and the Baltic States, as well as Russia, Ukraine and even further afield.\nThe Intercity Bus Terminal (bussijaam) in Tallinn is also the starting point of coaches to every corner of Estonia. You can reach the city centre from the terminal with trams 2 or 4 heading up the Tartu maantee. The terminal is situated at 46 Lastekodu Street and is open every day from 06.30 until 21.30.\nThe train station (raudteejaam) in Tallinn \u2013 \u201cBalti jaam\u201d \u2013 is literally across the street from the Old Town. Only one international train line operates in Estonia: from Russia, Moscow (Leningradski Vakzal/Station). It travels on a daily basis and the journey lasts about 15 hours. Unfortunately, it is not possible to take a train to Europe, but for travelling in Estonia, rail transport is one of the most comfortable forms of transport. Elron is a public transport company, organising all passenger train transport in Estonia.\nYou will find a perpetual stream of taxis outside the arrival hall in airports and Port of Tallinn and it is by far the most convenient way to get to your dormitory or rental place. For a price example, a quick, 7\u201310 minute taxi ride from the airport to the city centre in Tallinn would cost you approximately 5\u201310 EUR regardless of the number of passengers or baggage.\nWhat to bear in mind when travelling by taxi:\nChoose a clearly marked taxi (takso).\nAccording to Estonian law, taxis are required to publish their full price list on the passenger side window and customers are allowed to choose whichever taxi they prefer, regardless of their position in the line.\nYou can usually pay in cash or with a bank card. Please confirm bank card option before you enter the taxi.\nAfter the taxi ride, ask also for the receipt if you want \u2013 drivers are obligated to issue the receipt if asked. If you are not provided a receipt upon requesting one, you are not obligated to pay.\nRide-sharing apps Uber and Taxify are widely used\nHow to order a taxi?\nDownload a ride-sharing app on your phone\nIn Tartu, call any of the numbers listed on the City Government Website\nIn Tallinn, the most common taxi companies are Tulika Takso (+372 1200), Tallink Takso (+372 1921) or Takso24 (+372 1224)\nInner City Buses\nTallinn \u2013 A ticket purchased from the driver (at the price of \u20ac2.00) will grant you the right for one ride. Tallinn public transport ticket information and fares are published on their website and schedules of public transport by vehicle/stops can be found here. For international students who have registered their place of stay as Tallinn (City District Government Office) and acquired a smartcard for transport, public transportation is free of charge.\nTartu \u2013 A ticket purchased from the driver (at the price of \u20ac1) will grant you the right for one ride. Public transport ticket information and fares are published on their website and schedules of public transport by route/stops can be found here. University students are offered a discount when buying a single ticket, 10-day ticket or 30-day ticket (valid upon presentation of a school or university student card).\nCustoms When Entering Estonia\nOn arrival and departure, a traveller must declare goods that are liable for import duties and taxes or import restrictions at customs. International students usually do not enter or leave Estonia with anything prohibited or liable for import taxes, but in order to prevent any possible misunderstandings, it is reasonable to ask for additional information before leaving from the local customs office or from the customs information desk or get more information from the web site of the Estonian Tax and Customs Board.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Systems Mobile Based\nSystems Mobile Based\nSocializing means going out into our own comfort zones and mingle with people in the community. We cannot stay home for the rest of our lives because we are scared or worry about risks that could happen to us. We need to go out and enjoy everything that life has to offer from food, culture, to beautiful landmarks and places that you should seek out even for once in your life. You don\u2019t have to stay grounded with your fears on accidents and emergency situations. Technology has found its way to ease out your mind and keep you safe anywhere and everywhere you are.\nMedical alert systems are not just installed in your homes but could also be brought wherever you are. The mobile-based medical alert systems allow you to call or dial emergency services anywhere you are whether in work, walking down into the park, or just into the neighborhood. You could press one time this device and reach through a team of expert that could address the ongoing problem.\nWhat\u2019s the difference between home and mobile-based medical alert systems?\nBasically, both devices could be used to call medical emergencies. These devices are especially helpful to elderly and disabled who always have difficulties on dialing out the phone in times of emergency. That is why these systems are invented to make sure that you\u2019ll be safe and guarded against unexpected circumstances that will lead to death if not addressed immediately.\nThe only difference is into the flexibility of utilization. Home based medical alert systems are only used in particular indoors and are intended to be used at homes. Whereas the mobile-based alert systems could be brought and activated anywhere they are. It\u2019s a highly recommended device especially for active seniors or to any people who feel unsafe whenever they are around the community.\nAdvantages of Mobile-Based Medical Alert Systems\nAside from versatile coverage, mobile-based medical alert systems are incorporated with multiple of functions that could be a benefit to any of its user. This includes the following;\nLocation is a critical thing to determine especially on elderly who have difficulty on remembering places. That is whythese mobile-based devices are incorporated with GPS Tracking for anyone to easily monitor on their loved ones while they are outside the home\u2019s premises. Though this system isn\u2019t as perfect as it is, this has been proven helpful for easy tracking and responding medical attention outside the house\u2019s premises.\nConnect through Mobile Devices\nUnlike home-based, mobile-based devices are mainly connected through wireless cellphones. These devices do not rely on landlines to just reach out for help. Thus, you\u2019ll expect a fast and reliable service when you\u2019ve to reach upon any medical services as needed.\nWhile there are some advantages, there are only a few disadvantages that most users clamor upon with these devices. This includes the following;\nWhile most home-based systems have incorporated battery life that could have lasted for two years, mobile-based systems induce very limited battery performance that could go only for days from its utilization.\nNon-Water Resistant\nThese devices could not be used when they are exposed to water. Nevertheless, it should be dried for few minutes before being able to utilize it again as needed.",

        "title": ">Religious Wars and Publishing after 50! @ SusanCushman.com",
        "raw_content": ">Religious Wars and Publishing after 50!\n> The April issue of Writers Digest magazine arrived in my mailbox this week, containing an article called \u201cReligious Wars.\u201d The author, Kara Uhl, talks about the role of September 11 as the catalyst for many of what she calls \u201canti-religion\u201d books. She highlights Sam Harris\u2019 book, The End of Faith, which was a New York Times bestseller and winner of the 2005 PEN Award for Nonfiction in 2004, as the leader in a nonfiction, bestselling subcategory, which Uhl says, \u201cindicates a culture shift.\u201d\nBut unlike many subcategories that take a strong stance, here publishers have seen anti-theism readers pick up anti-religion books, and vice versa, if only so they can better argue their views\u2026. It\u2019s an age-old war being fought on pages and marketed on the front tables of major bookstores, and while some say the trend has peaked, other think the crusade has only just begun.\nUhl discusses some other key players in her article: The God Delusion, by Richard Dawkins, and The Dawkins Delusion? by Alister McGrath, God: The Failed Hypothesis by Victor Stenger, and Nica Lalli\u2019s memoir, Nothing. But her article reminded me that I\u2019m overdue for another installment of my continuing \u201creview\u201d of Harris\u2019 book, The End of Faith.\nMy earlier reviews are (Chapter 1) here, (Chapter 2) here, and (Chapters 3 and 4) here.\nI think there are several reasons I\u2019ve been avoiding Harris\u2019 book. One is my own feeling of inadequacy\u2026. Not knowing if I\u2019m up to the task. This is heady stuff. I only agreed to read the book because someone I love very much asked me to. This friend was very much taken with Harris\u2019 book, so I agreed to read it with an open mind. And that leads to the second reason I\u2019ve been avoiding the book. I don\u2019t think I\u2019m capable of reading it with an \u201copen mind,\u201d if that means with an empty slate. I\u2019m not sure any of us can do that. We take in everything around us through a filter, don\u2019t we? Everything we see, hear, taste, touch, smell, and read goes through a filter that\u2019s been developed through years of sensual and intelligent input. And yet, I try. The third reason is that I\u2019m choosy about what I read. I try to balance my reading with books (and essays, short fiction and poetry) that are uplifting, spiritual, and artistic and books that are educational and informational. Some times a book can accomplish several of these tasks simultaneously. And yet, I\u2019m pressing on a bit today, having just read Chapter 5 of The End of Faith: \u201cWest of Eden.\u201d\nHarris deals with what he calls \u201cthe influence of religion in the West\u201d in this chapter, and starts with a warning:\nThe degree to which religious ideas still determine government policies\u2014especially those of the United States\u2014presents a grave danger to everyone\u2026. For many years U.S. policy in the Middle East has been shaped, at least in part, by the interests that fundamentalists Christians have in the future of a Jewish state\u2026. Fundamentalist Christians support Israel because they believe that the final consolidation of Jewish power in the Holy Land\u2014specifically, the rebuilding of Solomon\u2019s temple\u2014will usher in both the Second Coming of Christ and the final destruction of the Jews.\nRight off the bat, Harris is taking an extremist fundamentalist view and applying it to all Christians. When Pilate asked Jesus if He was the King of the Jews, Jesus said, \u201cMy kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.\u201d (John 18:36)\nThe Orthodox Christian Church (some good links to read about Orthodoxy are here, at the Antiochian Archdiocese\u2019s web site) does not take a political stance on these issues, because we believe what Christ said to Pilate. Our faith does not, or should not, lead us to extreme actions based on what Harris calls \u201cintrusions of eschatology into modern politics.\u201d His statement that \u201cMillions of Christians and Muslims now organize their lives around prophetic traditions that will only find fulfillment once rivers of blood begin flowing from Jerusalem\u201d is again, not an indictment against Christianity, any more than extreme behavior on the part of an individual American, or even a group of Americans, is an indictment against America.\nThe War on Sin\nIn his section on \u201cThe War on Sin,\u201d Harris talks about what he calls \u201cthe tension between private freedom and public risk.\u201d\nBehaviors like drug use, prostitution, sodomy, and the viewing of obscene materials have been categorized as \u201cvictimless crimes.\u201d\u2026. Indeed, what is startling about the notion of a victimless crime is that even when the behavior in question is genuinely victimless, its criminality is still affirmed by those who are eager to punish it\u2026. The idea of a victimless crime is nothing more than a judicial reprise of the Christian notion of sin\u2026. It is no accident that people of faith often want to curtail the private freedoms of others. This impulse has less to do with the history of religion and more to do with its logic, because the very idea of privacy is incompatible with the existence of God\u2026. Because we are a people of faith, taught to concern ourselves with the sinfulness of our neighbors, we have grown tolerant of irrational uses of state power.\nAs I read these words this morning, having just finished my Morning Prayers, I thought about the Prayer of St. Ephraim, which Orthodox Christians pray every day during Great Lent. His words speak directly to Harris\u2019 accusations that Christian faith leads to the desire to curtail the private freedom of others:\nWhen I judge my brother (and I do this, unfortunately, quite a bit) it\u2019s not in obedience to my faith. Quite the contrary\u2014it\u2019s a sin against my brother, and against God, the judge of all. I\u2019m not sure who Harris is referring to when we says that we, as a people of faith, are \u201ctaught to concern ourselves with the sinfulness of our neighbors,\u201d but it\u2019s certainly not the historic Christian Church.\nI don\u2019t know the scientific and medical facts necessary to argue with Harris about his assessment of the danger of alcohol and cigarettes (which are legal) vs. the harmless and possibly even helpful effects (according to Harris) of marijuana and other illegal drugs. But I do disagree with his assumptions about how prohibition causes crime:\nThe crimes of the addict, to finance the stratospheric cost of his lifestyle, and the crimes of the dealer, to protect both his territory and his goods, are likewise the results of prohibition.\nThis is just illogical. Would Harris have a state with no laws, so that there would be no crimes against the law? I guess I\u2019ll find out what his plan is in the final chapters of his book, if I can make myself read them.\nThe God of Medicine\nIn his final section of this chapter, \u201cThe God of Medicine,\u201d Harris deals with embryonic stem-cell research. He states his beliefs about stem cells dogmatically:\nImmediatly, I\u2019m asking, who is \u201cwe\u201d?\nWe know that research on embryonic stem cells requires the destruction of human embryos at the 150-cell stage. There is not the slightest reason to believe, however, that such embryos have the capacity to sense pain, to suffer, or to experience the loss of life in any way at all.\nAgain, who is \u201cwe\u201d?\nHe sets people of faith over and against the \u201cwe\u201d in terms that try to render them as idiots:\nEnter faith: we now find ourselves living in a world in which college-educated politicians will hurl impediments in the way of such research because they are concerned about the fate of single cells\u2026They believe that even a human zygote (a fertilized egg) should be accorded all the protections of a fully developed human being\u2026. Those opposed to therapeutic stem-cell research on religious grounds constitute the biological and ethical equivalent of a flat-earth society.\nWell, I guess we\u2019re pretty clear about how Harris feels about Christians. I\u2019m finding it more and more difficult to continue reading this book of his \u201cwith an open mind\u201d as he continues to assault my intelligence, and even my humanity, with such statements. Harris\u2019 transition into his next chapter says:\nIt is time we found a more reasonable approach to answering questions of right and wrong.\nI guess we\u2019ll learn about his approach in the final chapters of his book. But don\u2019t look for my comments any time soon. Reading Harris leaves me hungry for something substantive, especially as I approach these final seventeen days of Great Lent. And so I refer again to Metropolitan Anthony Bloom\u2019s short book, Meditations on a Theme, for some balance here:\nIt is not circumstances that make shadows darken our souls, nor is it God\u2019s fault, although we accuse him all the time. How often have I heard people say, \u2018Here are my sins,\u2019 then stop a moment to take a breath and begin a long discourse to the effect that had not God afflicted them with such a hard life, they would not sin so much.\u2019\u2026. I suggested, before reading a prayer of absolution, that peace between God and man was a two-way traffic, and I asked whether the penitent was prepared to forgive God all his misdeeds, all the wrong he had done, all the circumstances which prevented this good Christian from being a saint. People do not like this, and yet, unless we take full responsibility for the way we face our heredity, our situation, our God and ourselves, we shall never be able to face more than a small section of our life and self. If want to pass a true and balanced judgment on ourselves we must consider ourselves as a whole, in our entirety.\nOn a different note, in the same issue of Writer\u2019s Digest, I found a wonderful article called \u201cPublish Your First Book after 50.\u201d Looking at all the young folks at every writers conference I attend can be very intimidating. Literary agent Scott Hoffman offers great tips for writing and publishing after age 50, and you can bet I read every word! Especially some of his closing remarks:\nAnna Sewell didn\u2019t sell the classic novel \u201cBlack Beauty\u201d to her publisher until she was 57. [Note: I\u2019m 57!] Laura Ingalls Wilder, the beloved author of the Little House on the Prairie series didn\u2019t have her first book published until she was well into her 60s. And Richard Adams, author of the children\u2019s classic \u201cWatership Down,\u201d remained unpublished until he was in his 50s.\nLooks like I\u2019m in good company! Or\u2026 I will be when I get my first book published. Which reminds me, blogging is fun, but it isn\u2019t getting the next chapter written\u2026.",

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Economist magazine of London in 2012 saw this coming in the next decade.\nBut with the blunders Trump has made since taking office on Jan 20, some academics are seeing the hastening of this possibility.\nTrump\u2019s abdication of globalisation and free trade for protectionism with the objective of boosting investments in the US may hurt not only international trade but also the US economy, economists warn.\nAnd his erratic behaviour, unpredictability and fast change of tact do not instil confidence in nations looking to America for leadership. Holding its breath, the world now follows developments in the US closely.\nUnpredictable force: The United States may be displaced as global leader because of Trump\u2019s policy changes and the instability he has injected into trade and foreign relations. \u2014 Reuters\nTrump stirred up apprehension in Asia when he tweeted that the US did not have to agree to the \u201cOne China\u201d policy that has been endorsed by previous leaders for decades. On Feb 10, however, he reversed his stance over a long overdue phone conversation with Xi.\n\u201cIf Hillary Clinton were the US president, I would say that the US will still be a world leader for a long time,\u201d says Dr Ngeow Chow Bing, Universiti Malaya\u2019s deputy director of the Institute of China Studies.\n\u201cBut Trump has injected so much uncertainty and unpredictability to the extent that China today seems to be a much more stabilising factor compared to the US,\u201d Dr Ngeow tells Sunday Star.\nAbdicating leadership in TPP\nBy abandoning the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP), which the US mooted and negotiated for five years with 11 other nations during the presidency of Barack Obama, Trump is seen as having abdicated US leadership in this vital trade pact that covers 40% of global GDP (gross domestic product).\nOne key objective of mooting the TPP by the US administration was to isolate China.\nBut to counter TPP, Xi announced in 2013 his strategic one-belt one-road economic initiative to benefit 65 countries populated by 4.4 billion people. This long-term plan, seen as extending China\u2019s influence internationally, is seeing acceptance by 100 nations.\nFocusing on the construction of infrastructure \u2013 in particular the high-speed rail \u2013 the programme will link China with Europe, Central Asia, the Middle East, as well as Africa, South-East Asia and the Pacific, thus boosting international trade as rail cuts shipment time.\nIn a comment Why Trump cannot bully China published last week, Prof Dr Kenneth Rogoff of Cambridge University tacitly warns that \u201cthe US has been duped into enabling China\u2019s ascendancy\u201d.\n\u201cOne day, Americans will come to regret it. We economists tend to view the abdication of US world leadership as a historic mistake,\u201d says the former chief economist of the IMF.\n\u201cIn fact, the TPP would have opened Japan far more than it would have affected the United States. Rejecting it only opens the door to Chinese economic dominance across the Pacific,\u201d adds Rogoff in his write-up.\nAccording to Moody\u2019s, United States\u2019 failure to implement TPP represents a lost opportunity for exporters \u2013 particularly from Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Mexico \u2013 aiming to gain greater access to major TPP markets.\nDr Ngeow: \u2018China today seems to be a much more stabilising factor compared to the US.\u2019\nThe international rating agency observes in a short note: \u201cSome countries have begun exploring other trade options, bilaterally or with China through the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP).\u201d\nTo Rogoff, Trump\u2019s policy to \u201cbring home\u201d American jobs and create a system that will extend US dominance might not produce the desired outcome.\n\u201cUnfortunately, with this inward attitude, it is hard to see how the US can maintain the world order that has benefited it so much for so many decades. And make no mistake: America has been the big winner. No other large country is nearly as rich and the US middle class is still very well off by global standards.\u201d\nStating that it would be na\u00efve to reverse the trend of globalisation, Rogoff adds: \u201cThe fate of China is now in the hands of the Chinese and their leaders. If the Trump administration thinks it can reset the clock by starting a trade war with China, it is as likely to accelerate China\u2019s economic and military development as it is to slow it down.\u201d\nChina aims to be world leader\nIndeed, China is seen as harbouring the ambition to play a bigger and more important role on the world stage since 2014 and to alter the global balance of power.\nAt a lecture at Sunway University last month, China affairs expert Prof Dr Anthony Saich of Harvard University points out that Xi has, since December 2014, promoted his \u201cChina Dream\u201d that envisages China playing a strong role in global affairs, regional politics and economy.\nXi\u2019s belt and road economic initiative along the old silk and maritime routes is seen a major well-crafted strategy to engineer China\u2019s economic expansion and diplomatic influence overseas, apart from serving its own need to export China\u2019s over-capacity.\n\u201cAs a leader in China, Xi has been adept at accumulating power and dominating the political discourse within the mainland,\u201d observes Saich, the director of the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation.\nBy getting himself named the \u201ccore leader\u201d of China in late October 2016, Xi is no doubt the most powerful person in the republic now.\n\u201cXi is a much more confident and stronger leader. He looks like a leader, moves like a leader, walks like a leader and dresses like a leader,\u201d Saich says in his lecture titled Can Xi Jinping achieve his dream?\nAlso a guest professor at Tsinghua University, Saich points out that when China \u2013 which is already reshaping geopolitics \u2013 takes the lead, the world will have to contend with two important features:\n1) For the first time, the largest economy is not in the Western world and it has a different set of values;\n2) For the first time, the world\u2019s largest economy will not be the one that enjoys the highest standard of living and quality of life.\nDr Saich: \u2018Xi is a much more confident and stronger leader.\u2019\nIndeed, Xi demonstrated that China \u2013 the world\u2019s second largest economy \u2013 could take over global leadership role at the recent World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland.\nHis speech on Jan 17 won praises and support from political and business leaders at this prestigious annual event. But top political leaders from the US and Germany were absent at this function last month.\nUnlike Chinese officials participating in the previous meetings focussing on China\u2019s economic situation, Xi assumed the leadership role by calling for the world\u2019s political and business leaders to join hands to achieve inclusive development.\nHe viewed boosting free trade as a solution to global sluggishness, voiced his opposition to isolationism and protectionism, and stressed that no one would emerge winner in a trade war.\n\u201cThis is a stance that reflects the changing role of China from a participant to a leader in the global economic system,\u201d commented the official China Daily.\nAfter describing the long and arduous journey that China had taken in 38 years of opening up and reform, Xi stated China\u2019s readiness to take leadership in driving global growth for the benefit of people in China and the world.\nCNN, in its news commentary, observed: \u201cBeijing is positioning itself as a global leader at a time when Western powers, and especially the US, are retreating from the world stage and questioning globalisation that now defines global trade.\u201d\nReuters opined Xi\u2019s speech as underscoring \u201cBeijing\u2019s desire to play a greater global role as the US turns inward\u201d.\nAt the forum, Xi told the world China had provided foreign countries with over 400 billion yuan (RM250bil) of aid between 1950 and 2016. And since 2008, China has contributed to annual global economic growth of over 30% annually.\nLee: China needs to do more to surpass the United States in GDP.\nThe forum was told that for the next five years, China would import US$8tril (RM35tril) of goods, attract US$600bil (RM2.6tril) of foreign investment and plan US$750bil (RM3.3tril) of outbound investment. Chinese tourists would make 700 million of outbound visits.\nXi also stated China would continue to pursue a foreign policy of peace and was ready to enhance friendship and peaceful cooperation with all other countries.\nChina \u2013 not there yet\nBut according to China experts, China will have to put its house in order and improve its economic performance first before claiming global leadership.\n\u201cChina is plagued by many internal problems and at the same time, has hesitation to claim a leadership role. Although some Chinese officials and scholars seem to suggest that China can and will take a leadership role, I think its leadership is still uncertain,\u201d opines Ngeow.\nA high-profile anti-corruption campaign that has shamed and jailed powerful politicians and businessmen is seen by Saich as Xi\u2019s strategy to remove his rivals. This also reflects the fierce and intense power struggle within the ruling Communist Party of China led by Xi.\nBut Ngeow has a different view: \u201cXi\u2019s anti-corruption campaign is the most sustainable and widespread in recent memory and it has even affected economic growth. This certainly goes beyond simply ridding of rivals.\n\u201cThere is a genuine sense that errant party and government officials have to be disciplined after years of uncontrolled behaviour.\u201d\nTo economist Lee Heng Guie, Trump\u2019s bold policies on foreign relations, immigration and protectionism may pose \u201cunusual challenges\u201d to China and the rest of the world.\nAnd economically, China still has a long way to catch up to overtake the United States.\nAlthough in terms of purchasing power parity basis, China has overtaken the United States as the biggest economy since 2014, it is still trailing behind America in other aspects.\nAccording to IMF data, the US economy was ahead of China by US$7,170bil in 2016 using the current market rate.\nLee, the executive director of Malaysia\u2019s Socio-Economic Research Centre, adds:\u201cTo surpass the US in GDP, China will have to accelerate economic and financial reforms to uplift its growth potential \u2013 driven by innovation and productivity. It must achieve a sustainable growth of 6.0%-6.5% growth per annum over the next decade.\"",

        "title": "Tales of the Grotesque and Dungeonesque: Total Skull - February 2017",
        "raw_content": "Books, films, tv, and music that brought me delight in February, 2017.\nSofia Samatar, A Stranger in Olondria\nA Stranger in Olondria is a fantasy novel of rich, fragrant description that doesn't fall back on the cliches of exoticism to tell its tale. As in Tolkien, the protagonist is a common man, and not a hero in the traditional sense. Jevick is the son of a pepper merchant travels from his backwater place of birth to Olondria, the city he has come to know only through reading his tutor's books. And it's the power of the written word that sits at the novel's thematic heart; when Jevick finds himself haunted by the ghost of a countrywomen he met in the crossing, he free himself from her by merely giving her the proper funeral rites of their people--he must write her life to appease her. Samatar's prose is lush and her story moved me. If you are someone who feels attached to the seduction of language, the meaning behind the written word, and the purpose of storytelling, this books should be on your list.\nBrian Evenson, Contagion and Other Stories\nThis is going to be taken as heresy by many, but: the stories in Contagion gave me what I was looking for, and didn't get, out of Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian. Evenson specializes in tales of paranoiac religiosity, Southern Gothic-flavored fatalism, and meditations on the Word as Law. Stylistically, Evenson's prose is spare and sharp; the paired-down spikiness and blunt impact of his writing hits all the harder for not overindulging in misbegotten grandeur. Although the contexts for his stories tend to remain mysterious in the telling, that only contributes to the intensified feeling of strangeness that permeates Evenson's fiction. Some horrors were not meant to squirm into the light.\nEdgar Allan Poe, Selected Tales\nPutting together a collection of Poe's tales probably seems easier than it really is. Of course, you know you'll be including Poe's well known Gothic tales; \"The Cask of Amontillado\" is going to be in there, as will \"The Fall of the House of Usher,\" \"The Black Cat,\" \"The Tell-Tale Heart,\" \"The Pit and Pendulum,\" and all those stories Poe wrote about beautiful women who die. You'll probably need to include an example of Poe's detective fiction, but this edition goes the extra mile by including all three Auguste Dupin stories--even the ridiculously inanimate \"The Mystery of Marie Roget.\" This Oxford edition rounds out the collection with some nice surprises, such as \"A Tale of the Ragged Mountains\" and the archly bizarre \"The Man Who Was Used Up,\" and the included notes, introduction, and other supplementary material is of the expected high caliber. If you don't own a collection of Poe's short fiction, this is a great volume to fill that gap.\nClark Ashton Smith, The Dark Eidolon and Other Fantasies\nIt's amazing that a good sampling of Smith's poetry and fiction is now widely available in a Penguin Classics volume. The selection of stories in this collection is very good; it gives a taste of stories from Smith's celebrated secondary worlds, such as Averoigne and Zothique, as well as his Mythos-adjacent work and his fiction intended for a more general \"weird horror\" audience. Although there is no critical consensus on what constitutes Smith's best stories--simply because there has been little serious evaluation of ouvre--The Dark Eidolon features strong examples of Smith's pulpy sword & sorcery, horror, and science fiction tales such as \"The Mother of Toads,\" \"The Tale of Satampra Zeiros,\" and \"The Double Shadow.\" The poetry selections are helpful for gaining a fuller understanding of Smith's artistry, but I can't help thinking that slimming-down these sections, particularly his less-successful attempts at prose poetry, would have cleared a little room in the book that could have been better purposed to feature more of his fiction.\nCome for the witchy 1960s Technicolor aesthetic, stay for the thematic exploration of sex vs. love, the multiform shades of feminism, archetypal man-eaters, gender roles, empowerment, and romantic fantasy vs. libidinal fantasy. The Love Witch focuses on the protagonist's use of magic to ensnare men in their own love for her, but although these spells are effective we're left questioning how much this magical domination is really to her benefit. The film could be called a satire of gendered views on love, male fragility, and emotional labor, but its approach to theme and narrative is far more insightful than that. The film is also stunningly shot; every frame feels perfectly constructed and essentially true to the overall aesthetic. The mostly obviously Hitchcock-inspired scene in the movie is an especial treat.\nThe obvious pitch for Get Out is \"Look Who's Coming to Dinner meets The Stepford Wives meets The Wicker Man,\" and honestly that's fairly accurate. Although I didn't find the film that scary--it isn't rife with jump scares, the intensity didn't ratchet-up to can-you-endure-this levels, and the gore is fairly tame--I also have the luxury of not having to be afraid of the ideas the movie explores, which is actually the point. All genre work is political, but Get Out is unabashedly a social commentary. And it's a smart social commentary all the way through. As a film Get Out is incredibly well constructed; the actors all turn in tremendous performances, the subtle menace of suburban isolation is spot-on, and the musical cues hit right where they need to.\nWhen James Koziah Delaney returns after his assumed death in Africa to claim his inheritance at his father's funeral, he acquires the rights to Nootka Sound--a piece of land that immediately puts him at the center of machinations involving the East Indian Company, the Crown, and the newly-minted United States. Through a combination of unbreakable will, capacity for brutality, and (possibly) some degree of supernatural affinity, Delaney navigates the treacherous, cloak-and-dagger world of politics both local and personal; even when it seems as though his schemes have been countered by one of the political leviathans pitted against him, Delaney remains one step ahead. Although the ultra-grottiness of the setting and characters sometimes veers perilously close to cartoonish (even the highest members of society look to be in need of a good scrub), and the violence is overly gleeful, I haven't enjoyed a show as much as Taboo in a long time.\nHans Zimmer, Henning Lohner, and Martin Tillman, The Ring soundtracks\nA caveat: this is a great soundtrack is you don't listen to the last four tracks, which add unneeded electronics, rockin' guitar, and cringe-worthy vocals to what is otherwise a really nice collection of dark instrumental tracks that trade on creeping dread and moments of quiet melancholy introspection.\nA Dream of Poe, A Waltz for Apophenia\nThe triangulation of Black Sabbath riffs, stoner atmospherics, and themes drawn from exploitation horror is the shape of doom du jour, but A Dream of Poe's A Waltz for Apophenia harkens back to a time where My Dying Bride was the defining sound of funereal metal. Which is not to say that A Dream of Poe is a My Dying Bride clone; their brand of plaintive dirge has its roots in a strong tradition of heavy melancholia, but they are their own beast.\nBiohazard Sound Chronicle Best Track Box\nThe Biohazard Sound Chronicle Best Track Box is a six-disc collection of music from the soundtracks to the series better known in the US as Resident Evil. Although some of the music on this collection isn't in the same level as the more stunning pieces created for the series, the collection does live up to its Best Track moniker; if you're looking for a compilation of the best pieces of dark ambient and nightmarish soundtrack work from Resident Evil, this is by far your best bet.",

The 'American Idol' winner is not only attending college, but he's also touring to promote his platinum debut album, 'Clear as Day,' pushing his new Christmas record, and getting together the songs for his follow-up album.\nDespite his incredibly busy schedule, McCreery took a minute -- literally -- to answer a series of rapid-fire questions for us, graciously opening up about everything from his early Christmas memories, to Rod Stewart, the importance of Rice Krispies on a grueling road trip, politics and more.\nQuestion 1: What did you ever do to get grounded growing up?\nI think one time I actually tried to run away. I packed a bag of Rice Krispies and hit the road [Laughs]. And then I got to the end of the neighborhood and came back 'cause I got scared. I don't think my parents took too kindly to that.\nAll I took was Rice Krispies -- no clothes or anything, just Rice Krispies.\nQuestion 2: What is your most memorable Christmas gift?\nI'd put it between two: my first guitar that my grandfather got me when I was about ten, or, I got a pretty big telescope when I was younger. I'm a huge moon and stars guy; I love sitting out at night checking out the constellations, so when I got that, I was pretty ecstatic. The guitar is probably number one, though.\nQuestion 3: Have you decided who you're going to vote for, and why?\nOh [Laughs]. Uh, you know, for me, I'm going to keep my politics kinda to myself. I'm a singer and entertainer, not a political analyst on the news. But I'm definitely trying to get informed and watch the debates and stuff. This will be an interesting presidential election, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it pans out.\nQuestion 4: What's the strangest thing you've ever autographed?\nThere was this one time I had this really, really big guy come up to me, and I think he'd had a few to drink that night. And he came up to me and lifted up his shirt and had this hairy belly just hanging out, and he said, \"Sign my belly, man.\" And I said, \"Are you kidding me?\" And he said, \"No.\" So I signed his big old belly.\nTaste of Country: Oh lord.\nQuestion 5: When was the last time you were starstruck?\nIt was a couple of days ago. I was in L.A. going to my ENT, checking out my vocal chords, making sure everything was healthy, and as I walked in, Rod Stewart was walking out. I was like, 'Oh my gosh!'\nTaste of Country: Did you speak to him?\nNo, I didn't. He's Rod Stewart -- I let him go on his merry way. But it was definitely, we all turned around, and our jaws were on the floor, like, 'Are you kidding me?'

He showed me an enormous box of letters he had received, and said: How is it that a trade union leader like you has so many friends all over the world?\"\n-- A released prisoner from the Dominican Republic\nCurries - cooking and eating.\nI seem to be spending quite a lot of time on ServerFault, an online sysadmin Q&A help site, where I go by the name of MadHatter. I got interested in the site because it allows authentication via OpenID, a protocol of which I much approve (but which is completely failing to be adopted because it breaks the big websites' ability to collect marketing data on their users). Edit 03/2018: they, too, are dropping it; sic transit gloria mundi.\nThere is truth in the rumour that I wrote one, along with a friend from MIT; it's now out of print. We were working on a second edition, to cover 2.4.x kernels, iptables and OpenBSD 3.0, but Wiley decided they didn't want it after we wrote two-thirds of it. Perhaps we'll write another one later!\nSome reviews I've written of other people's books can be read here, though none is recent.\nI founded the toasters' administrators' mailing list, which as of 24/8/2011 has come back to teaparty; MathWorks, who kindly hosted the list for many years, have decided not to do so any more.

        "raw_content": "HANDMADE BY GOD TAG\nBelow is is a tag that I give out to groups when I am teaching about how to be comfortable in your own skin. Have you ever bought a garment that has a tag like this one explaining that the differences or imperfections are what make this clothing special? Well, I think we need a tag like that for our bodies, so I wrote this one.\nThis body is of quality, detailed construction. Irregular parts are not body flaws but unique and personal touches that contribute to the overall beauty. Slight imperfections and shade variations are characteristics of bodies which enhance the beauty and should not be thought of as defects. Each body is meant to be a unique creation, designed for a purpose and perfectly suited for everyday use. Every body handmade by God is fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:14)\nDeborah Newman teatimeforyoursoul.com\n\"Comfortable in Your Own Skin: Beauty Secrets\" Bonus Articles\nWhat's a Dad To Do?\nYou may be reading this because your wife has been to a conference or reading a book and she is concerned about how to teach your children to have a healthy body image. You may be thinking: She\u2019s just listened to another expert that is telling her something else we need to worry about. I know how you feel.\nAt the same time, I know that your wife is wired a little differently than you. She is probably a little better at tuning into these things because she has instincts towards relationships that aren\u2019t as strong in you. That\u2019s why God gave you a wife. She helps you just as much as you help her.\nIf you are a single dad, these truths are even more important for you to convey to your children.\nI thought I could give you just a few tips that might help you be the dad you want to be in your children\u2019s lives.\nYour daughter is desperate for your approval.\nShe looks to her mom as an example for how to be a woman, but to you to know that she has value as a woman.\nYou show her that you value her by spending time with her, speaking encouraging words to her and even by telling her that she is beautiful.\nJust by taking your daughter to the park, having a special breakfast date, showing up at her school with lunch; you are saying that she is a very important inhabitant of this earth. She learns that she matters.\nA father\u2019s words about his daughter\u2019s body have a huge impact. You may not think what you say matters much, but it does. Be very careful about the words you speak about your daughter\u2019s body, her mother\u2019s body, and become aware of what you say about other women. Be careful, especially at the times you don\u2019t think your daughter is paying attention. An example is during a football game on television. What do you say about the cheerleaders in the skimpy outfits? Your daughter is listening. Any comment you make that is sexualizing or demeaning women will affect your daughter.\nYour daughter needs you to express love and concern about her modesty in her dress. This is an area you know much better than your wife, but be careful not to overwhelm them. Get them both to trust you that you only want what is best for them and encourage them both to dress modestly and attractively. You know more than your wife how visually oriented men and boys are. They need you to help them accept this whether they understand it or not. The manner in which you communicate your concerns is just as important and the content that you express.\nYour daughter may need to hear certain things from her mother.\nYou need to build a very special relationship with your daughter, but some of your input may need to come through her mom. If you do have concern about your daughter\u2019s diet or weight for example; it might be wise to discuss this with her mom and together come up with a solution that always protects your daughter\u2019s self-esteem. It may be the same with her clothing choices, it might be better for her mom to express some of the concerns rather than hear them directly from you.\nYour daughter loves to feel that she is beautiful to you. This will help her develop confidence and learn not to settle for a relationship with a guy. It\u2019s the best way you prepare your daughter to find her way in the world, not only with guys, but on the job, and in all of her social interactions.\nYour sons need you to teach them not to over-obsess about girls\u2019 looks. They need to learn from you how to respect girls even if they are not acting or dressing respectfully. You can caution them that telling a girl she is fat is much different than even speaking those same words to a guy.\nYour sons need your approval about their bodies too. Be careful about how you talk about your son\u2019s bodies too. Don\u2019t tease them. They are very sensitive even though they don\u2019t show it. Encourage them to think of their bodies in positive ways and point out the great things their bodies can do for them. Work in the yard together or volunteer for projects such as building a Habitat for Humanity House and show him how to use his strength to help others.\nYour sons need you to teach them about their bodies sexual responses. Take is on as your responsibility to prepare your son for puberty. How did you learn about sex and your changing body? Was your father someone you could ask questions? Begin in the preschool years to answer his questions honestly and openly and he will keep asking until around eight. After that time, choose special opportunities to tell him what he needs to know even if he appears to be uninterested. Protect him from pornography by honest conversation and monitoring his computer.\nPray for your children to weather the messages of this culture and help them grow strong against the body-hate that is crushing their spirits for all the wrong reasons.\nA Fellow Father in Christ,\nDr. Brian Newman\nMinister to Adults\nMothers are Teachers. Did you realize that? The first thing you teach your child is to smile, then to speak, to walk, to use the toilet. I bet you are the one who taught your child the alphabet. You never stop teaching them. As they grow you teach them to drive. You are a lifelong teacher to your children. Most moms don\u2019t sit down with a lesson plan about what they are going to teach their children. Some of you may have never thought about yourself as a teacher until you started reading this article. Those are just the things you do as a mom; it comes with the job.\nIn the looks-obsessed world we live in, we need to recognize that a big part of our job as moms is to teach our children to like how they look. It is a lifelong journey that begins with how a mom focuses on her own looks. The teaching needs to begin well before adolescence when the world of looks will become a teen\u2019s number one struggle. Learn what you can do for your child to help them like their looks and have a strong foundation to face adolescence.\nBecause of my work experience as a counselor, I have been aware of this issue and ended up responding to it as a parent out of my personal concern for my daughter. I raised my children in North Dallas, which is a breeding ground for eating disorders. Each day in my job as a counselor I was meeting beautiful, wonderful young women who were trapped in behaviors that were destroying their lives. I began to get concerned about the messages my own daughter was susceptible to, even though she was still a preschooler. I could see the influence the culture could have over her. In fact, my daughter, Rachel, was only five years old when someone told her she was fat! I was appalled! I wanted to scream at the eight year old girl who made the comment, but I didn\u2019t because I knew where it was coming from. I could see that although neither girl was fat that the neighbor had most likely been told she was fat, and she was just spreading the wrong facts as she was processing them. I couldn\u2019t have as much influence over that neighbor girl, but instinctively I knew that I needed to help vaccinate Rachel from the body-obsessed world in which she was growing up. Interestingly, I asked Rachel if she remembered the comment and it never became a part of her consciousness. I\u2019m sure it would have made an impact if I had screamed at the eight year old. What I did was affirm both girls and tell them they were both growing exactly as God designed them.\nI did purposely talk to Rachel about eating disorders and how damaging they were to the lives of the young girls I worked with. We had conversations occasionally, but more importantly, I showed Rachel what healthy body image involves by how I cared for my body and how I responded to her. Sometimes I had to protect her from comments made by family members. I was determined to protect her self-esteem. My calculations were correct and many of her friends dealt with body image and eating disorders to different degrees, but thankfully she never became a victim to the problem.\nI asked Rachel what if anything I had done to help her like herself so I could share this with other mothers. Her response was; \u201cIt\u2019s not that I think I\u2019m all that great, it\u2019s just that I don\u2019t care.\u201d Inside I rejoiced. That was my hope. I didn\u2019t want to raise a daughter who didn\u2019t learn and grow from her body-flaws, but I did want to raise a daughter who knew there was so much to her worth and value than how she looks.\nNow I am encouraging you as a mom to stop and really think about this problem and how it affects your children. I want to encourage you to do what I did and take a personal and purposeful interest in giving your children wisdom about their bodies and how they are made from their preschool years and beyond. I want to share with you some of what I did in hopes that it will help you inoculate your children from the woeful realities of negative body image.\nWHAT TO TEACH AT EACH STAGE OF LIFE:\nPreschool Years\nI didn\u2019t start out talking to Rachel about eating disorders in the preschool years. Other than disagreeing and interceding in the conversation on that one comment made to her when she was five, I left body image out of our consciousness. If your preschooler is asking questions about being fat, etc, then you need to address their questions with the truth. I do want to encourage you to consider where the question is coming from. Most preschoolers are mainly influenced by their home environment. One woman told me that she decided to pick up my book after an experience she had in the dressing room with her then four year old daughter. Her daughter was trying on a dress, looked in the mirror and said, \u201cI look fat in this.\u201d The mom was shocked, and also forced to face the reality that the only place her daughter was hearing such a thing was from her! The work she did on her own body image was the best teaching she did for her preschooler. She learned to like herself and that lesson was passed down through the rest of the years they had at home. Use the preschool years to consider your own body image and recognize that you are modeling body image to her whether you plan it or not.\nProtect your preschoolers from sexualized toys and television. Children want to please and they receive the message that they will be loved by how sexy they are. This message is loud and clear in their world if you do not take certain precautions in their lives. Use the preschool years to teach them to be in awe of the way God heals their boo-boos, and created them to run, skip and jump. When I am teaching on healthy body image I tell people that I want them to get to get in touch with \u201cthat five year old you.\u201d A five year old will run through a room naked if it is just after their bath and they want something across the room. They are not thinking that their body will turn others on or that they could be judged by how they look. They are simply free to be in their bodies and free to explore the world through the boundaries of what their bodies enable them to do. The sad reality is that I\u2019m afraid our most recent generations will not be able to relate to that statement of remembering the five year old you. Without the intervention, love and protection of wise and caring parents, their body image assault will begin in the preschool years.\nThe school age years are important for same-sex peer interaction. Children are learning how to make and maintain friendships outside of the family. There is a bit of individuation going on here. You need to continue monitoring of their television and media influences to the degree that you are able, but these are the years to begin addressing and becoming sensitive to the ways the peers talk about their bodies. During these years you teach them how they are unique, special and different from their peers. You want to get them ready for the dramatic ways their bodies will change from childlike to adult-like. Prepare them by explaining that it is normal for pre-puberty girls to gain extra weight in preparation for menstruation. Teach them how to feed and care for their bodies by offering quality, well-balanced meals from your own dinner table as often as possible.\nThese are the years that body image issues will be most apparent in your relationship with your child. If they never have previously, they will begin to scrutinize and consider what kind of body flaws they have. They may even create some body flaws just to fit in with their peers. You do not feel that you have much influence over them now, but you really do. Enable them to spend time with peers, but always with a watchful eye, and pay attention to what is going on in their relationships. What are they learning to believe about themselves from their peers and how close is this to the truth of who they are. When they point out their body flaws, teach them to accept the imperfections they see by being balanced in how to respond to them. If your child has a medical condition of acne, discuss this with your doctor, but don\u2019t become a partner with them in overreacting to body flaws. When you spend so much time and money trying to fix the things they see wrong with them, you are communicating that this is really a bad thing that is not what they need to hear from their parent. Don\u2019t overreact to their complaints but put them in perspective for them. They need their mom to be the voice of reason and not exaggerate normal adolescent body growth and development.\nI really want to encourage you to be a safe haven for your child, making it your top priority to show them that you love them just for who they are during these years. Everywhere they go, in every interaction they have, they are targeted with body-hate. It\u2019s not the intention of the media to create teenagers with low self-esteem, but since their ads are created with teens in mind they have to point out everything that is wrong with them in order to get them to purchase their product.\nDon\u2019t join the chorus of spreading the emphasis on teen beauty. Love your teen. Don\u2019t take responsibility if your teen is overweight, or even if they have an acne problem. Be a welcome coach if they come to you for help on their body flaws. If they don\u2019t ask for your help, don\u2019t give it. If they do want your help, get the balanced help they need. If it is weight, find a dietician who can teach them how to eat and exercise better. Don\u2019t lead them to crazy fad diets.\nThe High School and College Years are very important years in your child\u2019s life. You need to be there for them, praying for them as they live in this whirlpool of body conflict. These are years when physical attractiveness is paramount on their minds. Teach them to trust that God\u2019s plan for their bodies will attract the right spouse and help them determine what is right for their career.\nGeneral Message that you need to be giving your children at every stage of their lives\nYou want them to know that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Proverbs 18:21 says that life and death are in the power of the tongue. Nowhere is this more true than in the words that are spoken about a body. I have talked to many parents who would never have dreamed one comment would pack so much power and lead to the place where they are paying $30,000.00 to help their daughter who has an eating disorder. Be aware of the words you speak to your child and even the names that you call them in fun. Also, be aware of the words you speak about your own body.\nAs your children grow you need to teach them that God knows their body flaws. A lot of North Dallas teenagers are spending hundreds of dollars on normal acne! It\u2019s interesting to stop and ponder what God could have been thinking when He gave pimples to humans at the same time they are most obsessed with their looks. Could God be wanting to show them that life can go on even if you have an outbreak? Teenagers are naturally obsessed with how they look\u2014they don\u2019t need their parents to be just as worried! You need to help them think like George MacDonald writes: \u201cI would rather be what God chose to make me than the most glorious creature that I could think of; for to have been thought about, born in God\u2019s thought, and then made by God, is the dearest, grandest and most precious thing in all thinking.\u201d\nYou also need to teach your children that their bodies are the temple of God. God chooses to dwell in their bodies; that in itself makes their bodies very special. God doesn\u2019t see their body as a place to evaluate their worth. Rather, God gave them a body to experience 80 or so years on this earth learning to love and serve Him. Help them get God\u2019s perspective of their bodies.\nTeach boys not to talk negatively about girls\u2019 bodies Guys need to be aware that if they do not over focus on what a girl looks like they are setting themselves up for a lifetime of very gratifying and satisfying sexual experiences. God designed us to develop an irrational attraction to the opposite sex. But when guys or girls are over exposed to sexual imagery (such as pornography) it affects their sexual development negatively and can lead to sexual addictions that result in unsatisfying sex and dangerous or life threatening sex. Guys who do not develop unrealistic expectations of what a woman\u2019s body should look like are much freer to actually enjoy the satisfaction that sexual intimacy and relationship were created to give.\nYour job as a teacher in your role as a mom is so important. I want to encourage you to take it seriously and be confident that you indeed can make a difference in your children\u2019s lives. They need your wise and balanced perspective in this culture more than ever!\nHere\u2019s an exercise that I use in Workshops and Teachings on Body Image. Ask your child to sit by you and hold their hands, look into their eyes and ask them to repeat back to you each of these statements as you speak them in a loving and sure tone:\nYour body is the temple of God.\nYou were wonderfully made.\nYou were knit together by God Himself.\nNothing about your body is unknown by God.\nGod saw your body before you were even born.\nGod knows the number of days you will live in your body.\nYou are created in the image of God.\nGod knows the very number of hairs on your head.\nYour true beauty comes from your inner self.\nYou can exalt Christ in your body.\nGod knows everything your body needs.\nBecause of what Christ did with His body, you are without fault.\nThere is no condemnation toward you.\n(2 Corinthians 6:16, Psalm 139:13-16, Gen. 1:27, Luke 12:7, Phil. 1:20, Matthew 6:25-33, 1 John 1:9, Romans 8:1)\nWhat About Guys and Body Image?\nIt\u2019s just as important to think about helping guys build a healthy body image as it is for girls. In the last decade there has been an astounding increase in the number of males seeking treatment for anorexia, bulimia, or body dysmorphic disorder. Athletes are particularly susceptible if they participate in sports that emphasize weight like gymnastics, track, swimming, wrestling and rowing. Wrestlers seem to have a higher rate of eating disorders.\nThe reason for the increase in eating disorders among males seems obvious. In the last decade the media has focused much more on exploiting the male physique. This has done nothing to take the pressure off of women; it has only served to welcome guys into the ranks of those being diagnosed with eating disorders. Sadly, because an eating disorder is thought of as a female problem it is often embarrassing for a guy to ask for help. Eating disorders gain more power over you through secrecy for both males and females, but it is much harder for a male to admit the problem because it is not as socially acceptable for him to be addicted to binging, purging or dieting.\nAnother form of body image problems that affects males more than females is steroid abuse. The reason for this is the emphasis on muscles for males when it comes to a good body in the view of Western culture.\nThe etiology of eating disorders is the same for males and females. Food is really not the issue. The problem is the painful circumstances that are going on underneath the food issues such as low self-esteem, family problems, sexual confusion, sexual abuse, and more. If you are struggling with addiction to food, dieting, binging and purging, ask for help.\nTypically, guys think girls care more about their body size and shape than girls really do. When it comes right down to it, girls are attracted to a guy\u2019s whole package: looks, personality and abilities. Guys seem to become more fixated on what a girl looks like and they naturally expect that girls do the same. The truth is that guys come in all shapes and sizes, and you need to focus on being comfortable with the genetic makeup that makes you, you.\nIf you have an eating disorder, tell a caregiver or close friend who can guide you to professional help. Don\u2019t be too embarrassed to admit your problem to someone who cares for you and can point you in the right direction. You are right to feel that some people just won\u2019t understand, make light of your situation or further shame you for admitting your problem. Choose someone who seems to exhibit a knowledge of teens and issues they face to share the problem you are having with body image, food or eating.\nWhat Guys Need to Know:\nAccept that guys\u2019 bodies come in all sizes and shapes and your body is unique. Don\u2019t try to be a cookie cutter. Take care of the body you have, but accept the shape it grows into.\nBe aware of the media pressure that is subtly telling you that your body needs to look a certain way. Inoculate yourself from its power by acknowledging that underlying message and rejecting it.\nRather than focus on what shape your body should take, focus on how your body serves you. Celebrate the strength you have and the stamina you can develop.\nDon\u2019t hang out with other guys who are body-obsessed; even consider changing sports or coaches if they are having a negative impact on you.\nGet involved in a Bible study or support group and look up passages in which God tells you what a body is really all about.\nI\u2019m saddened by the increasing numbers of guys being affected with body-hate. I pray that you will find the help, hope and healing that God offers to you.\nCopyright \u00a9 2001-2017 Deborah R. Newman. All Rights Reserved.",

        "title": "Wisconsin GOP Senate Hopes Rely on Underdog Leah Vukmir - Tennessee Star",
        "raw_content": "Wisconsin GOP Senate Hopes Rely on Underdog Leah Vukmir\nLeah Vukmir is used to being the underdog.\nFew gave the Republican U.S. Senate candidate from Wisconsin much of a chance of defeating her better-funded primary challenger last month, but she prevailed thanks largely to support from the party establishment.\nNow Vukmir faces another opponent with deeper pockets \u2013 Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin \u2013 in one of the most expensive Senate races in the country. The contest could determine control of the Senate and will be closely watched as an indicator of whether Wisconsin might return to its traditional status as a Democratic state during the 2020 presidential election.\nVukmir is taking a big risk by tying herself to President Donald Trump, who won Wisconsin by less than 23,000 votes in 2016, and Republican Gov. Scott Walker, who faces a tough re-election contest in November.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think any of that intimidates her,\u201d said former Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Scott Jensen, Vukmir\u2019s mentor when she was first elected to the Assembly in 2002. \u201cShe is the underdog, but she likes that position.\u201d\nVukmir, 60, is the daughter of Greek immigrants, a lifelong resident of the Milwaukee area and a registered nurse. Until the Senate campaign, she worked as a nursing instructor.\nVukmir is pitching herself as the \u201cclear conservative.\u201d She\u2019s known as tough and uncompromising, a trait seen early in this year\u2019s campaign when she confronted Baldwin with a question about why the senator didn\u2019t support tax cuts. Vukmir\u2019s primary campaign included an edgy TV ad playing up death threats she got as a state senator \u2013 while showing Vukmir sitting at a table with a holstered gun at hand.\nVukmir first made a splash locally when, as a mom with no political experience, she complained that her suburban Milwaukee public school wasn\u2019t teaching her daughter how to read. She eventually formed a group called Parents Raising Educational Standards in Schools, and became a familiar face at the Legislature.\nJensen recalled meeting Vukmir in the 1990s as she lobbied him as Assembly speaker to remove a testing requirement proposed by then-Gov. Tommy Thompson, a Republican. Jensen described Vukmir as politically naive. He said he told her that she would have to convince a majority of Republican lawmakers for him to back killing the proposal.\n\u201cIt didn\u2019t take her but a week\u201d to do just that, Jensen said. \u201cShe did it all on her own.\u201d\nWhen Walker left the Legislature in 2002 to become Milwaukee County executive, Vukmir ran to replace him and won. Eight years later, she was the underdog again when she challenged a Democratic incumbent for the state Senate \u2013 and won again. The victory helped flip the chamber to Republicans, paving the way for Walker, who was elected governor that year, to pass his conservative overhaul of Wisconsin.\n\u201cShe\u2019s not afraid to take on a challenge, even when the experts tell her not to,\u201d said Bill McCoshen, a lobbyist who first met Vukmir about 20 years ago when he was a member of Thompson\u2019s administration. \u201cI think it fuels her.\u201d\nBut taking on Baldwin is Vukmir\u2019s biggest fight yet.\nDemocrats have already captured several races in Wisconsin this year that were seen as barometers of the electorate, and the party is confident that enthusiasm will help carry Baldwin.\nStill, Baldwin is one of the more liberal members of the Senate and has long been a target of conservative outside groups and GOP billionaire megadonors . They see a chance to deny her re-election in a purple state that Trump barely won in 2016.\nTrump didn\u2019t endorse in the primary, but came out full throttle for Vukmir the day after her win. Vice President Mike Pence came to Wisconsin to raise money for her two weeks later.\nOn the issues, Vukmir and Baldwin could barely be more different.\nVukmir would build a border wall, pursue federal changes to unions similar to what she voted for in Wisconsin, and \u201cdrain the swamp\u201d by relocating federal offices and workers to the states. She has consistently supported Walker\u2019s agenda, including voting to effectively end collective bargaining for most public workers and enacting the state\u2019s 20-week abortion ban.\nBaldwin is trying to make the race largely about health care. Baldwin is a staunch supporter of the federal health care law, and supports Sen. Bernie Sanders\u2019 \u201cMedicare-for-all\u201d single-payer health care proposal.\nVukmir opposes the national health care law. She supports a market-driven approach and largely returning to what was in place before the enactment of the Affordable Care Act. Pence said during his Wisconsin visit that Vukmir could be the deciding vote in striking down the law.\nHealth care was named the top issue of the Senate race in a poll last month by Suffolk University done for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. That poll showed Baldwin at 50 percent and Vukmir at 42 percent. Another poll by Marquette University Law School conducted the week after the primary showed the race to be a dead heat.\nBaldwin has been focusing on issues that typically generate bipartisan support, such as her \u201cBuy America\u201d proposal and fighting the opioid crisis. She has also dinged Vukmir for being a leader with the American Legislative Exchange Council, a group that offers conservative-minded legislation to legislatures across the country.\nBaldwin and her supporters argue that Vukmir is emphasizing her work as a nurse and her early activism as a concerned mom to cover up her conservatism.\n\u201cLeah Vukmir cannot hide the fact that she\u2019s spent her past 16 years in Wisconsin\u2019s state Legislature working for corporate special interests to enrich them at the expense of hardworking Wisconsinites,\u201d said Wisconsin Democratic Party spokesman Brad Bainum.\nBattleground States, News, Uncategorized2018 elections, Leah Vukmir, Sen.

(2006) CD40 T cells Multicolor immunofluorescence in situ staining was performed to determine the percentage of subepithelial macrophages expressing CD40 and that of lamina propria T cells expressing CD154 while avoiding cells in lymphoid aggregates.\nReul et al. (1997) CD40 T-cell Induced expression of CD40 was strongly associated with the presence of CD3+ T-cell infiltrates, acute rejection, and ischemic injury (P<0.05).\nReul et al. (1997) CD40L T-cell Overall, the expression of CD40L correlated with the presence of CD3+ T-cell infiltrates and rejection (P<0.05), but not ischemic injury (P=0.9).\nDanese et al. (2003) CD40L PBT Surface CD40L expression level was measured by flow cytometry in resting and thrombin activated platelets, and unstimulated and CD3/CD28 stimulated PBT before and after coculture with human intestinal microvascular endothelial cells (HIMEC).\nKornbluth (2002) CD40L T cells Evidence has accrued indicating that HIV infection either selectively depletes those CD4(+) T cells that express CD40L in response to antigen or down-regulates CD40L expression by these cells.\nHsu et al. (1997) CD40L T lymphocytes CD40 ligand (CD40L), a 33-kDa type II membrane glycoprotein expressed primarily on activated CD4+ T lymphocytes, is responsible for the helper function of T cells on resting B cells in a non-antigen-dependent, non-major histocompatability complex-restricted fashion.\nDesai-Mehta et al. (1996) CD40L T cells Active lupus patients also had a 22-fold increase in percentage of CD8+ T cells expressing CD40L, consistent with their unusual helper activity in SLE.\nDesai-Mehta et al. (1996) CD40L T cells Surprisingly, patients with active lupus had a 20.5-fold increase in B cells that spontaneously expressed high levels of CD40L, as strongly as their T cells.\nCron (2003) CD154 T cells Cell surface and soluble CD154 are primarily expressed by activated CD4 T cells.\nCron (2003) CD154 T cell Expression of CD154 is tightly regulated in a time-dependent manner, and, like most T cell-derived cytokines and other members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily, CD154 is largely regulated at the level of gene transcription.\nCron (2003) CD154 T cells We are exploring CD154 regulation in primary human CD4 T cells in hopes of understanding the cis- and trans-regulatory elements that control its expression in the cells that normally express CD154.\nCrist et al. (2008) CD154 T cells Furthermore, using several established megakaryocyte-like cells lines, we performed promoter analysis of the CD154 gene and found that NFAT, a calcium-dependent transcriptional regulator associated with activated T cells, mediated both differentiation-dependent and inducible megakaryocyte-specific CD154 expression.\nKatsiari et al. (2002) CD40L T cells To explore the regulatory defects underlying the overexpression of CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154) in human lupus we studied the effects of cyclosporin-A (CsA), which blocks Ca2+/calcineurin-dependent CD40L gene expression, on peripheral blood-derived T cells and monocytes.\nKatsiari et al. (2002) CD40L T cells In contrast to control subjects, CsA failed to inhibit the prolonged CD40L expression observed in vitro on anti-CD3-activated lupus T cells.\nKatsiari et al. (2002) CD40L T cells Lupus monocytes clearly overexpressed CD40L comparing to healthy and disease-control monocytes, and, similarly to lupus T cells, displayed a prominent resistance to CsA inhibitory effects.\nWingett and Nielson (2002) CD40L T cells Cyclic AMP differentially modulates CD40L expression on human nai;ve and memory CD4(+) T cells.\nWingett and Nielson (2002) CD40L T cell In view of the central role of CD40L expression in immunity as well as the pathophysiology of common diseases, it is of interest that cAMP can either increase or decrease CD40L expression depending upon the T cell subtype and mechanism of cell activation.\nRigby et al. (1999) CD154 T cells As such, identifying these proteins will help us understand the signals that are necessary for CD154 expression by activated T cells.\nXu et al. (2006) CD154 T cells CD154 is a cell surface molecule expressed on activated T cells that binds to CD40, an activating molecule on APCs.\nHorner et al. (1995) CD40L T cells Neither CD40L surface expression nor CD40L mRNA were detected in unstimulated gamma/delta T cells.\nHorner et al. (1995) CD40L T cells Stimulation with phorbol ester and ionomycin induced CD40L mRNA and surface CD40L expression by gamma/delta T cells.\nGaweco et al. (1999) CD154 T-cell METHODS: The expression of CD40, CD154, CD68, and T-cell receptor (TCR)alpha/beta was analyzed by immunohistochemistry.\nSipsas et al. (2002) CD40L T cells CD40 ligand (CD40L or CD154) is a costimulatory molecule expressed mainly on activated CD4(+) T cells.\nFord et al. (1999) CD154 protein T cells The CD154 protein (CD40 ligand), which is critical to the regulation of both humoral and cellular immune responses, is expressed transiently on the surface of activated CD4+ T cells.\nFord et al. (1999) CD154 T cells To determine whether control of mRNA stability contributes to the highly regulated expression of CD154 during T cell activation, CD4+ T cells were isolated from human peripheral blood and stimulated for various lengths of time with plate-bound anti-CD3 mAb.\nFord et al. (1999) CD154 T cells Together, these data support a role for posttranscriptional regulation in the control and overall expression of CD154 in activated T cells.\nCarbone et al. (1995) CD40L T-cell Although CD40 has been extensively studied in B- and T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs)/leukemias, and more recently in Hodgkin's disease (HD), little is known about the expression of its ligand (CD40L) in lymphoproliferative disorders other than T-cell NHLs/leukemias.\nCarbone et al. (1995) CD40L T-cell A series of 121 lymphoma/leukemia samples, including 35 cases of HD, 34 T-cell and 39 B-cells NHLs, 2 cases of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, and 11 cases of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, were evaluated for CD40L expression by immunostaining of frozen tissue sections and flow cytometry with the anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody M90.\nCarbone et al. (1995) CD40L T-cell Our data indicate that in human lymphomas CD40L is preferentially expressed by a restricted subset of T-cell lymphomas, mostly with CD4 immunophenotype.\nInghirami et al. (1994) T-BAM T-cell Therefore, we investigated T-BAM expression immunohistochemically in 87 well-characterized T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and lymphoid leukemias (LL).\nInghirami et al. (1994) T-BAM T cells Our studies clearly show that T-BAM is constitutively expressed in a large number of T-cell neoplasms with a relative mature phenotype (CD4+CD8-) and that only CD4+ neoplastic T cells can be induced in vitro to express this molecule.\nLiu et al. (2001) CD40L T cells After in vitro stimulation, T cells from RA patients had higher and longer CD40L expression than T cells from normal peripheral blood.\nSrahna et al. (2001) CD154 T cells NF-kappaB is involved in the regulation of CD154 (CD40 ligand) expression in primary human T cells.\nSrahna et al. (2001) CD154 T cells We have studied the regulation of CD154 expression in human T cells after activation with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies or after pharmacological activation of protein kinase C with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, and the calcium ionophore ionomycin.\nSrahna et al. (2001) CD40L T cells These observations demonstrate a role of NF-kappaB transcription factors in the regulation of CD40L expression in activated primary human T cells.\nZhou et al. (2009) CD40LG T cell T cell CD40LG gene expression and the production of IgG by autologous B cells in systemic lupus erythematosus.\nZhou et al. (2009) CD40LG T cell Herein, we investigated the effect of DNA demethylation on T cell CD40LG expression and the production of IgG by autologous B cells in lupus.\nH\ufffdkkinen et al. (2000) CD40L T-cells Macrophages, smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and T-cells express CD40 and CD40L in fatty streaks and more advanced human atherosclerotic lesions.\nMakino et al. (2001) CD40L T cells We determined the influence of CD40L expressed on various HTLV-I-infected T cells on the DC maturation.\nMakino et al. (2001) CD40L T cells Around 60% of CD4+ T cells infected with HTLV-I for 1 week, expressed CD40L molecules involved in DC maturation.\nMakino et al. (2001) CD40L T-cell HTLV-I-immortalized T-cell lines established from healthy donors consistently expressed CD40L molecules for 3 months, however, some lines lost the expression soon thereafter.\nMakino et al. (2001) CD40L T cells Furthermore, T cells obtained from HAM/TSP patients expressed CD40L molecules for at least 3 weeks, whereas T cells from ATL patients did not express that.\nMakino et al. (2001) CD40L T cells Therefore, the lack of CD40L expression on HTLV-I-infected T cells may be associated with the development of ATL.\nMach et al. (1997) CD40L T lymphocytes We report here that CD40 ligand (CD40L), an immunoregulatory signaling molecule heretofore considered largely restricted to recently activated CD4+ T lymphocytes, is expressed by human vascular endothelial cells (EC), smooth muscle cells (SMC), and human macrophages in vitro, and is coexpressed with its receptor CD40 on all three cells types in human atherosclerotic lesions in situ.\nMalik et al. (1996) gp39 T cell We show that fixed cells and the cell membranes from a T cell line, BMS-2, that expresses high levels of the CD40 ligand gp39 (also called TRAP, TBAM, or CD40L) stimulate both the expression of mRNA and the production of MMPs by human monocytic cells.\nArmitage et al. (1993) CD40L T cells In this report CD40L is shown to be stimulatory for human T cells, inducing CD25 (p55 IL-2R) and CD40L expression on resting peripheral blood T cells, enhanced expression of these molecules and CD69 on CD3-activated cells and secretion of interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin (IL)-2 from T cells cultured in the presence of a sub-mitogenic concentration of phytohemagglutinin A (PHA).\nCasamayor-Palleja et al. (1995) CD40L T cells Preformed CD40 ligand (CD40L) was not detected in any CD4+ CD45RA+ T cells, but > 90% of all CD4+ T cells from the tonsil can be induced to express large amounts of CD40L on culture with phorbol myristate acetate and the calcium ionophore ionomycin.\nBiedermann and Pober (1999) CD40L T cells We conclude that in a microenvironment in which allogeneic EC are in close contact with infiltrating CD8+ T cells, such as within a graft arterial intima, CTL subsets may emerge that display EC selectivity or express CD40L and secrete little IFN-gamma after Ag contact.\nLu et al. (2007) CD40LG T cells We therefore compared expression and methylation of CD40LG, a B cell costimulatory molecule encoded on the X chromosome, in experimentally demethylated T cells from men and women and in men and women with lupus.\nLu et al. (2007) CD40LG T cells Similar studies demonstrated that CD40LG demethylates in CD4(+) T cells from women with lupus, and that women but not men with lupus overexpress CD40LG on CD4(+) T cells, while both overexpress TNFSF7.\nLu et al. (2007) CD40LG T cells These studies demonstrate that regulatory sequences on the inactive X chromosome demethylate in T cells from women with lupus, contributing to CD40LG overexpression uniquely in women.\nBatrla et al. (2002) CD40 T-cell CD40-expressing carcinoma cells induce down-regulation of CD40 ligand (CD154) and impair T-cell functions.\nBatrla et al. (2002) CD154 T cells In the present study we demonstrate that CD154 expression density is down-regulated on activated T cells on interaction with CD40+ tumor cells.\nBatrla et al. (2002) CD40 T-cell In distinction, T-cell effector lysing capacity was not impaired by CD40-expressing tumor cell targets.\nBatrla et al. (2002) CD40 T-cell The present results suggest that in marked contrast to antigen-presenting cells, CD40 expression on carcinoma cells suppresses T-cell activation.\nZhou et al. (1999) CD40L T cells So far, most pharmacological agents developed for that purpose target CD40L (CD154) expressed on activated T cells.\nDanese et al. (2006) CD40L PBT Plasma sCD40L was measured by ELISA and platelet and peripheral blood T cell (PBT) CD40L expression by flow cytometry.\nDanese et al. (2006) CD40L PBT In vitro infliximab prevented TNF-alpha-induced CD40 and VCAM-1 expression by HIMEC, and reduced PBT, but not platelet, surface CD40L expression and sCD40L release.\nCarbone et al. (1995) CD40L T-cell In contrast, reactive T lymphocytes from patients with non-neoplastic T-cell expansions and in vitro activated CD3+ or CD4+ normal T cells were found to coexpress CD40L and CD26.\nLobo et al. (2002) CD40L T cell Deficiency in CD40 ligand (CD40L) expression is associated with impaired T cell immunity in mouse models and in humans.\nLobo et al. (2002) CD40L T cells CD4+ T cells from female carriers of XHIM express a variable degree of normal CD40L based on random X chromosome inactivation.\nLobo et al. (2002) CD40L T lymphocyte We have examined T cells from XHIM carriers to investigate whether CD40L supports T cell function by acting as an intrinsic costimulator or by induction of other costimulatory molecules by examining coexpression of CD40L and markers of T lymphocyte priming.\nLobo et al. (2002) CD40L T cells Our results show that compared with CD40L-deficient T cells, T cells that express CD40L normally have a minimal advantage in becoming primed, as defined by CD45 RO isoform expression and production of IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha.\nGauchat et al. (1993) CD40-L T cells The human CD40-L is expressed on both CD4- and CD8-positive T cells, (CD45R0+) and (CD45RA+) subsets.\nHeidt et al. (2008) CD40L T cells METHODS: Purified human B cells devoid of T cells were stimulated with CD40L expressing L cells, or by anti-CD40 mAb with or without Toll-like receptor triggering, all in the presence of B-cell activating cytokines.\nFerrarini et al. (1976) IgM T cells The specificity of the IgM receptor expressed by human T cells cultured in IgM-free media has been investigated.\nKoshy et al. (1996) CD40L T cells The prolonged expression of CD40L was functionally significant, as 24 h-activated SLE T cells, when cocultured with target B cells, induced greater B cell surface CD80 (B7-1) expression than did 24 h-activated normal T cells.\nKoshy et al. (1996) CD40L T cells These results document impaired regulation of CD40L expression in SLE T cells and identify an important potential target for therapy in this systemic autoimmune disease.\nvan Rijen et al. (2002) CD154 T cells RESULTS: Lymph nodes from patients with or without CI cyclosporine (CsA) or FK506 (FK) treatment showed comparable CD154 expression, which was present on the cell surface of T cells.\nDessureault et al. (2005) CD40L T cell Previous reports revealed that anti-tumor T cell responses could be activated in mice when granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) or CD40L are produced at tumor vaccine sites.\nDessureault et al. (2005) CD40L T cell We sought to test the hypothesis that production of GM-CSF and CD40L by a bystander cell line could induce an anti-tumor T cell response in an in vitro human model.\nDessureault et al. (2005) CD40L T cell However, significant anti-tumor T cell responses were observed when bystander cells transfected with CD40L and GM-CSF were added to the cultures.\nMartin-Donaire et al. (2007) CD154 T cells Indeed, CD4+ T cells from patients with RA have an increased expression of CD154 [21-24] that is still observed 5 to 12 years after disease onset, indicating augmented and prolonged activation of T cells.\nMartin-Donaire et al. (2007) CD154 T cells However, data on these two results look similar and both seem to provide an expression of the higher content of CD154 in non-24CAs CD4 T cells.\nMartin-Donaire et al. (2007) CD154 T cell Direct comparison of these results should be taken with caution, because different proportions of T cell subsets could have distinct kinetic patterns of CD154 expression.\nB\ufffdning et al. (2002) CD40L T cells In contrast, in vitro stimulated T cells of patients with colon cancer had a significantly increased expression of CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154) compared with activated T cells of the control group; increased CD40L expression was also found in the CD4(+)- and CD8(+)-T-cell subpopulations.\nLee et al. (1999) CD40L T cells Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals exhibit normal B-cell CD40 expression but diminished expression of CD40L on CD4 + T cells.\nMueller et al. (2010) CD154 T cell METHODS: To address this issue, a novel assay, where CD4+ T cell frequencies can be determined by de novo CD154 (CD40 ligand) expression in response to HCV antigens, was used in a cohort of chronically infected HCV patients and patients who spontaneously resolved HCV infection.\nDarmochwal-Kolarz et al. (2009) CD154 T lymphocytes The expression of the CD154 antigen on CD4+ T lymphocytes and the serum concentration of soluble CD40L were significantly higher in pre-eclampsia than in normal pregnant women.\nDarmochwal-Kolarz et al. (2009) CD154 T lymphocytes This study investigated the surface expression of the CD154 antigen (CD40L) on peripheral blood CD4+ T lymphocytes and the sera concentrations of soluble CD40L antigens (sCD40L) in non-pregnant women, normal pregnant women, and patients with pre-eclampsia.\nDarmochwal-Kolarz et al. (2009) CD154 T lymphocytes In normal pregnancy the expression of the CD154 antigen on CD4+ T lymphocytes and the concentration of sCD40L were significantly lower than in non-pregnant women.\nDarmochwal-Kolarz et al. (2009) CD154 T lymphocytes The expression of the CD154 antigen on CD4+ T lymphocytes was determined using flow cytometry.\nRuybal et al. (2008) CD154 T-cell In this paper, we demonstrated the ability of CD40L (CD154) and CD80 costimulatory molecules expression in a T-cell lymphoma to induce both T-cell dependent and independent immune responses leading to an important anti-tumor effect.\nDaoussis et al. (2007) CD154 T-cells Increased expression of CD154 (CD40L) on stimulated T-cells from patients with psoriatic arthritis.\nErbel et al. (2007) CD40 ligand T cells Mapping of activated DC demonstrated close contact between mature DC and T cells expressing the activation marker CD40 ligand (CD40L).\nAschermann et al. (2007) CD40 ligand T cells The expression of CD40 ligand on T cells was markedly reduced in the patient.\nThusberg and Vihinen (2007) CD154 T-lymphocytes It is caused by mutations of CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154), expressed on T-lymphocytes.\nFeghali-Bostwick et al. (2007) CD154 T lymphocytes Our results show that greater proportions of peripheral CD4 T lymphocytes in IPF subjects expressed MHC class II and CD154 (CD40L), and they more frequently elaborated TGF-beta1, IL-10, and TNF-alpha.\nUeno et al. (2007) CD40 ligand T lymphocytes Increases in circulating T lymphocytes expressing HLA-DR and CD40 ligand in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.\nKannanganat et al. (2007) CD40 ligand T cells Virus-specific CD4 T cells are endowed with multiple functions, such as cytokine production, CD40 ligand (CD40L) expression (associated with the costimulation of CD8 and B cells), and degranulation (associated with cytotoxic potential).\nH\ufffdckel et al. (2006) CD154 T cells It was demonstrated recently that freshly isolated synovial cells from RA patients express CD40, whereas synovial T cells express CD40L (CD154) [50].\nMatthies et al.

Needless to say, I\u2019m glad I did it. I decided to revisit it, and, share the \u201cepiphany\u201d that came about - strangely, it was the SpaceX story that convinced me (years back) that Elon Musk would have the \u201cchops\u201d to build Tesla into such a revolutionary car company.\nOne of my all-time favorite profiles (ever) of Elon Musk came about when he won the prestigious Smithsonian Award for Ingenuity, they explained* why...\n\u201cThere are few things more difficult than putting something into orbit. Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, the space shuttle\u2014we think of rockets and we think of the oldest, most staid monoliths: the U.S. government. NASA. Lockheed. Boeing.

If he [Musk] can get 'full and rapid reusability'\u2014if he can figure out how to recover not just the second stage Dragon capsule, but the first stage of his Falcon 9\u2014he\u2019ll have done what no one has ever done before: created a fully reusable rocket for which the fuel costs only $200, 000 per flight.

Credit: SpaceX\nThe first critical test flight of SpaceX's crewed Dragon that will soon launch American astronauts back to orbit and the International Space Station (ISS) from American soil is now less than two days away.\nThe test flight \u2013 called the Pad Abort Test \u2013 is slated for the early morning hours of Wednesday, May 6, if all goes well. The key facts and a timeline of the test events are outlined herein.\nThe test vehicle will reach roughly a mile in altitude (5000 feet, 1500 meters) and last only about 90 seconds in duration from beginning to end.\nIt constitutes a crucial first test of the crew capsule escape system that will save astronauts lives in a split second in the unlikely event of a catastrophic launch pad failure with the Falcon 9 rocket.\nThe May 6 pad abort test will be performed from the SpaceX Falcon 9 launch pad from a platform at Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. The test will not include an actual Falcon 9 booster.\nSpaceX has just released new images showing the Dragon crew capsule and trunk section being moved to the launch pad and being positioned atop the launch mount on SLC-40. See above and below. Together the Dragon assembly stands about 20 feet (5 meters) tall.\n\"Buster the Dummy already works for a great show you may have heard of called MythBusters. Our dummy prefers to remain anonymous for the time being, \" SpaceX said today.\nSo, only time will tell if that particular mission fact will ever be revealed.\nThe test window opens at 7 a.m. EDT May 6 and extends until 2:30 p.m. EDT into the afternoon.\nThe webcast will start about 20 minutes prior to the opening of the window. NASA will also provide periodic updates about the test at their online Commercial Crew Blog.\nSpaceX Pad Abort Test vehicle being transported at the Florida launch complex. Credit: SpaceX\nThe current weather forecast predicts a 70% GO for favorable weather conditions during the lengthy test window.\nSince the Pad Abort Test is specifically designed to be a development test, in order to learn crucial things about the performance of the escape system, it doesn't have to be perfect to be valuable.\nAnd delays due to technical issues are a very significant possibility.\n\"No matter what happens on test day, SpaceX is going to learn a lot, \" said Jon Cowart, NASA's partner manager for SpaceX at a May 1 media briefing at the Kennedy Space Center press site. \"One test is worth a thousand good analyses.\"\nISS captures SpaceX Dragon capsule\n[SpaceX] Static Fire Update from ISS Mission Control\nSpaceX Dragon ISS docking\nSpaceX Dragon Mission Control\nWill the reentry of the SpaceX Dragon after the upcoming mission be visible to the naked eye?

[AP]\nWhile harvesting wind power has been the domain of G20 countries in the past decade, the alternative energy source has gained popularity in many regions of Africa.\nIn Morocco, the authorities are looking to reduce their dependence on imported oil and gas with 2,000 megawatts of wind generation throughout the country by 2020.\nMoroccan energy company Nareva Holding will be working with French utility giant GDF Suez on a 20-year $620-million project to upgrade the 300MW Tarfaya wind farm along the country\u2019s southern coast.\nThe wind farm is expected to begin electricity production by the end of 2014.\n\u201cThe Tarfaya project is in line with the Group\u2019s development strategy in fast growing markets,\u201d G\u00e9rard Mestrallet, chairman and CEO of GDF Suez, recently told the media.\n\u201cWe are pleased to support Morocco\u2019s ambitions to increase its renewable energy sources with this project, which will almost double the country\u2019s wind capacity. As the largest wind farm ever constructed by GDF SUEZ, it also demonstrates our commitment to investing in renewables as well as delivering essential energy infrastructure to Africa.\u201d\nOnce the Tarfaya project is completed, it will be the largest wind farm on the continent. It will supply electricity reaching 40 per cent of energy from renewable sources to the Moroccan state utility Office National de l\u2019Electricit\u00e9 et de l\u2019Eau Potable (ONEE).\nWind farming has also become a strategic interest in South Africa, where several countries, including India and China, have vied for the rights to build alternative energy projects there.\nSuzlon Energy Ltd, India\u2019s largest wind-turbine maker, is currently developing the Cookhouse wind farm in South Africa so that it generate 2,000 megawatts of power in the country by 2018.",

        "raw_content": "Today's post is to do with Snow White and the Huntsman. I was immensely disappointed with this move for a number of reasons which I shall go in to in a second. And don't worry, it does have something to do with writing! And a warning, this article does contain spoilers.\nWhat ruined this movie most of all was the much hated Kristen Stewart. Though I'm sure she tries her hardest, the Easter Island statues could do a better job. At least they don't think that breathing heavily constitutes emotion. It's the same expression throughout. Now I'm certain that her failure is not the director's fault. Though he also has a lot to answer for, considering he cast her. The other performances were good if not great, notably Charlize Theron and some of the Dwarves. Chris Hemsworth's best scene was the one where he kisses Snow White back to life, and the irony is not lost on me that it's his only scene which she's not in.\nThe music, I have to say, was wonderful, especially the Florence and the Machine song at the end (for the record, I'm not usually a Florence and the Machine kind of girl). The costumes were lovely, and the scenery and CGI was very believable.\nBut there's another area in which this movie falls down. It is the scripting, and there's a very good reason why. There are a couple of scenes/lines in this movie which don't advance the story at all. Two notable examples are the scene in which one of the dwarves dies and the fact that Snow White says she 'sees' what's in the Queen's head while she's 'dead' (which has absolutely nothing to do with how she kills her). I could have done with a few more scenes reinforcing the relationship between the Huntsman and Snow White. All due respect to Chris Hemsworth, the first I realized that they liked one another, he was kissing her. There was also an unrequited love plot line with William which went absolutely nowhere.\nSo, how does this relate to writing? It's simple. Don't put things in your novel which don't advance the plot line or the relationships (the best things are the ones that advance both). If there's a specific event that you want to include, make it relevant. Change the plot if you have to.You never know, it might make it more interesting. but whatever you do, don't make a good plot into a mediocre one by adding unnecessary scenes. They'll just clutter up the reader's head with useless information, unless they have something to do with the journey your characters take (more on emotional journeys in a later post).\nThat's it, dear reader.

        "title": "The Paris Accord Epitomizes Why All Bureaucrats Need Term Limits",
        "raw_content": "The Paris Accord Epitomizes Why All Bureaucrats Need Term Limits\nThe United Nations and other international organizations are prime examples of a bureaucracy run amuck to the point of undermining democratic rule and the people\u2019s sovereignty.\nBy Stefano Gennarini\nThe Paris climate agreement was always a bureaucratic trap that threatened U.S. sovereignty and undermined international law. It is a good thing President Trump has pulled us out of it. Other nations will be grateful to the United States in the long run.\nJust consider how after nearly two years no one yet knows if the agreement is a treaty containing legally binding obligations or a non-binding resolution containing mere political commitments. The lawyers were just pushed aside on this one. The United Nations (UN) bureaucracy, aided by opportunistic politicians and diplomats, concocted a new kind of agreement no one really understands.\nOn the one hand, it has some of the characteristics of a non-binding resolution, including characteristically vague open-ended language and moralizing tone, but on the other, it purports to establish binding obligations and deadlines. Its legality is so obscure that even the best international lawyers can\u2019t really make heads or tails of it\u2014even international lawyers who tend to be more liberal than their domestic counterparts were thrown for a loop with this chimera.\nSome call it an \u201cagreement.\u201d Others go as far as calling it a \u201ctreaty.\u201d Most newspapers, not knowing how exactly to characterize it, just talk about a \u201cdeal\u201d or \u201caccord.\u201d All this plays into the hands of bureaucrats.\nAmbiguity Erases Self-Government\nBureaucrats love ambiguity. Ambiguity is the humus they need to expand their power. The Paris agreement set up the right mechanisms for bureaucrats to exploit these ambiguities, including a committee of UN experts to oversee how each government implemented its emissions reduction commitments. Like other UN committees, this one will expand its activities into all manner of economic and social policies that were never contemplated when the agreement was drafted, and will pretend its opinions are binding legal obligations on the parties to the Paris agreement. Good riddance.\nThe United Nations and other international organizations are prime examples of a bureaucracy run amuck to the point of undermining democratic rule and the people\u2019s sovereignty. Multilateral organizations like the United Nations and the European Union are where all bureaucrats aspire to work. The job security and pay are exponentially better than in domestic gigs, even in the wealthiest countries. And the power and influence that comes with a UN or EU job is only matched by the moral smugness it entitles its holders to assume.\nBureaucrats at international organizations have a phenomenal advantage over sovereign states in driving the organizations\u2019 agenda. Diplomats who represent countries generally roll through international organizations for three-year terms, with few exceptions. Bureaucrats, on the other hand, are hired for life.\nIn other words, delegates barely have the time to get up to speed\u2014and become able to influence the organization\u2019s agenda\u2014before they get shipped off to another post, while the bureaucrats never leave. Moreover, political changes within countries destabilize their international positions and strategies, whereas the permanent bureaucracies rarely change positions.\nThe Hidden Hands that Rule the World\nThe UN secretariat, with its nearly 80,000 staff around the world and $50 billion budget, is a global bureaucratic powerhouse. With those numbers and resources, they are more than just the institutional memory of the United Nations, they drive its agenda and determine its outcome. Just compare those numbers to dozens of small UN member states that have a staff of no more than three or four persons in their missions in New York, and not all of them salaried. The situation in capitals is no better for most countries.\nDelegates try to keep up with the bureaucracy, but they are always behind the ball. The diplomats are simply outgunned in every fight. The result is predictable, and it is built into the UN system. Nations end up frittering away their sovereignty to unknown, and sometimes unknowable, bureaucrats who are answerable to no one and oversee inscrutable esoteric processes to re-jigger the world\u2019s economy and societies. The level of influence bureaucrats hold over international negotiations is simply astonishing.\nUN bureaucrats write the first draft of most resolutions. UN bureaucrats write the reports on which many of these resolutions are based. UN bureaucrats resolve disputes between states once negotiations are underway\u2014by appealing to other UN bureaucrats!\nThen, it is bureaucrats who assess the resolutions\u2019 implementation. They decide the premises of every issue and outline solutions before any sovereign state has even considered the issue. Delegates who do not follow the talking points bureaucrats provide, or worse still, who dare to challenge the bureaucrats\u2019 positions, can find themselves reprimanded by their superiors or even out of a job.\nIt\u2019s Not Just the United Nations, But All Bureaucracy\nThis mode of governance is not confined to international organizations. From the looks of it, the Trump administration got a taste of the bureaucratic runaround in his first few months in office, especially from the intelligence community.\nMost federal bureaucrats voted against Trump in the 2016 election. According to a report in The Hill, 95 percent of contributions from federal workers to presidential candidates in the 2016 election went to Hillary Clinton. The few who did not vote for Hillary likely voted for the president\u2019s opponents in the primaries.\nNo other nation stands on better ground to defy the international bureaucrats than the United States does. From its founding, the United States has distrusted alien bureaucracies. Article I of the U.S. Constitution places federal power almost entirely in the hands of elected representatives of the people, not in a permanent federal bureaucracy. America\u2019s founders chose this model of governance, as opposed to a continental bureaucratic model, deliberately.\nThe reason is simple. You can\u2019t vote a bureaucrat out of office. The framers would have balked at giving bureaucrats any oversight on internal U.S. economic and social policies, let alone bureaucrats from other countries. That is why term limits for congressmen were never a good idea and are inconsistent with the founders\u2019 vision.\nA semi-permanent class of politicians whose highest aspiration in life is to win elections until they reach senility or decrepitude is far from ideal. But the only real alternative is bureaucrats\u2014 unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats who are as well-meaning as they are power-hungry. As gratifying as waving term limits in DC politicians\u2019 faces may be, the ballot box remains the best instrument of democratic retribution, one that bureaucrats are impervious to.\nBureaucrats Are Taxation Without Representation\nImagine an unassailable professional caste of government employees congenially lording over a clueless, unmotivated troupe of new arrivals who don\u2019t understand or are simply uninterested in governing because they won\u2019t be around long enough for it to matter. The few honest representatives of the people trying to catch up with the bureaucrats find themselves sanctimoniously tutored in incomprehensible jargon and bamboozled by procedural foibles at every turn.\nThis is the sad state of the United Nations and of many democracies where the people\u2019s representatives have abdicated their power to the administrative state. If you\u2019ve ever watched the hilariously true British television series \u201cYes Minister,\u201d you know exactly what government by bureaucratic rule looks like.\nThis doesn\u2019t even broach that bureaucrats are usually liberals who believe more government programs and spending will solve all the world\u2019s problems, or how they unscrupulously skirt rules to push their political agenda and block opposing views, at every turn\u2014take, for example, the Internal Revenue Service Tea Party scandal.\nTrump sent a powerful message to the international bureaucracy by exiting the climate agreement.

        "raw_content": "hi gina thanks for sharing this wonderful friendship with us all and i know this is only my opinion to your question on telling this man of the baby but i would say (note in big letters) NO NO NO let this man keep his dreams of what could have been if you tell him so many things will hurt him why she didn't share the news with him, his baby died, she suffered alone, resent you from keeping this from him even resent you for telling him and many more he might guess she had it terminated then you will be doing your friends memory a disservice love may turn to hate in his mind if he found out of course he may be more understanding but don't take that risk some things are best left in the past it's a confidence she shared with you and it was her decision to keep it that way\nthis is only my opinion but i hope it gives you something to think about before you do anything love to you hazel xxx\nI was thinking the same thing. I didn't want to betray her trust even if she's not here. It just has been on my mind alot. He keeps mentioning it so I thought it may have been something he wanted to know but then I worried he'd get upset with me for not telling him. I guess it's because I'm close to him too. He and I were the closest ones to her.\nAs for the tattoo, I know they are forever, I have 5 already and I definitely am going to get one to honor her memory (she had 4). We both love tattoos. I looked on line today and I think I found one. Its the chinese symbol for \"best friend\". I was thinking about getting it with her name over it. I will never find another friend that I can be that upfront with and who accepts and loves me for my good qualities as well as my flaws like she did. She was a very special woman and there aren't very many people like her. I am grateful for the short time I did have her in my life even if I wasn't ready to give her up yet.\nI can answer that question at least for me. There is no way that I would ever have given up the time I had with Mayra. It hurts like hell to have lost her, especially the way she was taken, but I know I am a better person for having known her. I know in my heart that she loved me unconditionally as I did her. We had special times, both good and bad, but we were always there for eachother. A true friend you might find once in a lifetime and I found mine in her. I joined this forum after my grandmother passed away. I had a hard time with it because she raised me and even after I got married we still did alot together. Her death was unexpected but she was 83 so it was a little easier because of her age and i did get to say goodbye in the hospital that night. That was in 2005 and I still cry over it but with Mayra she died 11/23/13 & she would have been 40 on 12/15/13, way too young and I never got a chance to say goodbye. I still talk to her every day and I can hear what she would have said to me but it's not the same. And if my husband tells me to \"get over it\" one more time I think I'm gonna hurt him! I think he's that way because he's dealt with alot of loss several of his family members were shot and killed so he's built a wall. He did cry when Mayra was killed but he got over it in a week. He doesn't understand why it's so hard for me to deal with. She always admired my marriage because we've been together almost 21 yrs and married almost 18 yrs. She wanted s relationahip like mine. She started dating our former mailman in January 2013 and I haven't seen her that happy in a long time. He's a good guy. It kills me that she finally found the happiness that she wanted so badly and didn't get a chance to really enjoy it. She deserved to be happy. Especially after the way her kids father treated her. She was happy with her life, raising her kids and her job but she was lonely and wanted that companionship. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that she found someone who loved & respected her and that she passed away with him in her heart but I just wish she had the time to let her relationship blossom and really enjoy it. Now I'm left with all these thoughts like \"She could've or she should've\" and I'll never know what would've happened. Does that make sense? So many people loved her but I don't know if she realized just how many. The funeral home was packed and there was a line 2 blocks down and around one block waiting to go in. People stood out in the freezing cold for over an hour just to pay their respects. I have one question then I'm done for the night. I saw a locket and when you open it it has a small tube to put the some of the persons ashes in. Do you think it would be overstepping my bounds if I were to ask her family for a small bit of her ashes so I can get the locket and keep part of her with me always? She will always be in my heart but I would like to have that too. I'm good friends with her brother but I don't know her sisters that well and I don't wsnt to upset her mom but I want them all to agree to it not just one or two.\nhi gina i,m sure mayra,s family know how close you were to her and you will always be it doesn't hurt to ask about having some of her remains for your locket there's a procedure also that turns ashes into beautiful jewellery you only need a small amount to do this be prepared for them to say no and don't take the refusal personally but they might be comforted to know her memory will be treasured this way\nmayra had found happiness before she parted take comfort in this yes there was so much more to come as her life was short but it doesn't matter what age the departed are we go over what could have been and however many years should have remained and they were robbed of that joy try not to think this way we just have to accept what was and be grateful for the time they were here with us No past can ever be changed and the future is for those who remain for however long we are given our loved ones live on inside us as a beautiful memory\nLook to all she achieved in her life and thats so much she was loved and respected by many people you know more than most life can be cut short in a second so hold those close to you that you love your husband especially he loves you and your sadness must upset him that's why he has asked you to stop grieving talk to him he is your solace and your future tell him you need time to get through your loss you need his help love and understanding\nThinking of you xxxxx\nThank you ladies, for the encouragement and support you have given me. It really means alot especially since the person who always supported me is gone. First let me start by saying that I actually was planning on talking to her brother about her ashes. The day it happened her family went to the accident scene. I was hearing different things but didn't know she was killed yet so I was at home, trying to get in touch with her or her brother or sister in law. As soon as he got back ( Mayra, her brother and his wife and her mom live in 3 houses that are next to each other) he came straight here and when I opened the door he just grabbed me and hugged me for the longest time. We cried together. His mom didn't even know that Mayra didn't make it because when she heard about the accident she had to be taken to the hospital. So I would say we are pretty close. So that's what I think I'm gonna do. I just don't want them to feel like I'm intruding on their grief. Her kids are getting the necklaces with the stones made of her ashes. I think its pretty symbolic of her life. She was our rock. Just like those stones. So I'm going to call him tomorrow. He was here for awhile yesterday and we talked about getting tattoos. I show him the symbol for best friend in chinese and he piped up with I should get something that was personal for both of us. Then he told me I should get 'bitch'!. I was laughing and told him I thought of it so he said he knows that was our relationship. That we said it out of love and no one else could say it to us. Which is so true but I still think im gonna go with best friend. Even my ringtone for her said \"bitch alert\". As for my husband I'll try to elaborate on that situation tomorrow. Its a long story.",

        "title": "Cymbals Eat Guitars Announce New Album - The Modern Ape",
        "raw_content": "By Kyle T @Squantz_ \u00b7 On May 15, 2014\nThis week Cymbals Eat Guitars announced their new album, LOSE, as well as shared a new song called \u201cJackson\u201d. LOSE will be the third album from the New York based rock group and possibly their most emotional release to date. This is because the album is about coping with loss, specifically the loss of frontman Joseph D\u2019Agostino\u2019s friend and collaborator Ben High. Below is a statement from D\u2019Agostino on LOSE:\nLOSE is a very apropos title because it refers not only to losing Ben, but also it\u2019s about a sort of nostalgia, a longing for a time when music meant everything to you and your friends, and it seemed like one great rock record could change everyone\u2019s life the way it changed yours. It\u2019s about being in mourning for your long-held belief that music could literally change the world. That\u2019s the contradiction at the heart of LOSE\u2026 You\u2019re disillusioned, but somehow you can do nothing else but rail against that feeling mightily and try, once again, to make a record that makes you and everyone else \u201cwake up wanting to listen to records.\u201d\nAs for the song, \u201cJackson\u201d is a wonderful and powerful return for the band. The piano in the opening of the song is very reminiscent of the guitar from \u201c\u2026And the Hazy Sea\u201d and is a great introduction for those less familiar with Cymbals Eat Guitars, and it only gets better from there. I have only listened to the track a handful of times, but it has already worked its way into my favorite Cymbals Eat Guitars songs. Make sure to catch the full album when it drops this August 26!\nCymbals Eat GuitarsIndie RockLOSE",

        "raw_content": "Quit Tea Now At Whole Foods Helping Smokers Quit Naturally\nQuit Tea Now Available At Whole Foods Market North Atlantic Stores Helping Smokers Quit Naturally. A natural and alternative product to help smokers to kick the habit.\nLOS ANGELES \u2013 Oct 18, 2012 \u2014 Quit Tea, a new product that has already helped hundreds of smokers replace the habit of smoking for good, is now available at Whole Foods Market stores in the North Atlantic region.\nAccording to Quit Tea spokesperson Matt Bucklin, \u201cOver the past few years, an increasing number of studies have shown traditional smoking cessation aids are not effective, driving smokers in search of natural and alternative ways to beat the habit. Whole Foods Market, the industry leader in natural and organic products, is known for providing consumers with the best products for a healthy lifestyle.\u201d\nWhole Foods\u2019 North Atlantic region includes stores in Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and central Connecticut. Quit Tea is located in the grocery department with the other teas.\n\u201cWhole Foods Market is leading the path in providing consumers with new healthy options,\u201d added Bucklin. \u201cSince 2008, the average number of monthly searches on Google for the term \u2018quit smoking naturally\u2019 has almost doubled. One possible reason is the increase in advertising for non-traditional ways to quit smoking like hypnosis, cold laser therapy, acupuncture, and others \u2013 but one other factor in this trend is that smokers are tired of trying the same few products over and over again, without success.\u201d\nQuit Tea is a simple blend of herbs and spices that is intended to help smokers replace the habit of smoking with drinking herbal tea. The herbs help relieve stress and promote relaxation to temporarily support the willpower to give up smoking. Quit Tea is unique, all-natural, and effective. It has been on the market since May, 2010, and since then over 125,000 smokers have already tried a sample.\nQuit Tea is a herbal remedy that helps replace the habit of smoking with the healthy habit of drinking herbal tea and quit smoking for good. Quit Tea is a product of Quit Tea LLC and has been on the market since May 2010. It is distributed and sold internationally online, and in health food stores and pharmacies across the US, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Quit Tea LLC is a privately owned company based in Los Angeles, California.",

        "raw_content": "January 24, 2015 Paige Robar Arts and Entertainment, January 28 2015 0\nDirector Ava DuVernay\u2019s historical drama \u201cSelma\u201d reintroduces movie-goers to Martin Luther King Jr., whose legacy we celebrate and struggle with.\nThe film soars because actor David Oyelowo was able to remove King the man from King the American hero.\nOyelowo\u2019s King is flawed. He is afraid, exhausted and unfaithful. It is exactly that weakness that makes Oyelowo\u2019s portrayal so powerful. \u201cSelma\u201d reminds us that we do not need to be saints to stand up to injustice. We are capable of finding that kind of strength within ourselves.\nI walked away from \u201cSelma\u201d feeling like I had been in a fight. DuVernay refuses to spare audiences the violence that took place leading up to the famous march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama. You feel every nightstick to the head, every punch to the gut, and even the tear gas in your eyes.\nIt is hard to watch \u201cSelma\u201d without drawing comparisons to the protests in Ferguson, Missouri after the death of Michael Brown. The images out of Ferguson of heavily armed police with their dogs remind us of photos of the civil rights movement and of how far we still have to go.\nThis film is likely to promote more discussions about racism in America. It may even remind our politicians that there are still racial issues in this country. African Americans are still subject to housing discrimination, are subtly discouraged from voting via new election laws, and are too often targeted by law enforcement.\nAbout 100 students were given free tickets to see \u201cSelma\u201d for the Jan. 21 Witt Wednesday event at Chakeres Cinema 10 at 9 p.m. Tickets were available in the Philosophy Department\u2019s office. So many students wanted to see the film that there were no tickets left over.\nThere was a discussion about race preceding the film at 8:15 p.m. The conversation was lead by Julius Bailey, professor of philosophy, and John Young, associate dean for multicultural student programs.\nYoung ended the discussion by imploring all students to be their own advocates by voting in elections and keeping tabs on their representatives.\nWitt Wednesday",

Topics include affirmative action, income distribution, same-sex marriage, the role of markets, debates about rights (human rights and property rights), arguments for and against equality, dilemmas of loyalty in public and private life. The course invites students to subject their own views on these controversies to critical examination.\nGreat course and great teacher! I didn't know there were so many distinct perspectives on justice and the good life. I highly recommend it!\nFantastic course and teacher\nBrilliant course - engaging, challenging, and well-designed. Great discussion on controversial topics like abortion, gay marriage, human rights . Prof. Sandel is very ethical and manages to maintain philosophical rather than political atmosphere in the classroom . The assignments are not too hard and it's allowed to do them all in bulk. Highly recommend this course to anybody to become a better thinker, and for personal or professional growth.\nIt is a delight to challenge myself, about moral justice issues and interesting to see what others are saying. I just love it. I love learning, again.",

        "raw_content": "Posted by The Wolf of Wellswood | Jun 19, 2018 | Posts |\nWhenever you\u2019re sailing or walking in The Bay, you can\u2019t miss seeing the little island and probably wonder what it is? As some of you probably already know, it\u2019s called Thatcher Rock. That\u2019s not Thatcher\u2019s Rock, as most people say, and it\u2019s nothing to do with our former prime minister, Margaret Thatcher.\nThatcher Rock is located 300 yards from the shore on Meadfoot Beach. The rock is 43 metres high. On the rock there is a beach, but the beach is 25 ft above todays sea level. This is because of an Ice Age over 2 million years ago.\nThe rock is inhabited today by proper seagulls who eat fish and not the lazy ones you see in the harbour that try to steal your chips. Thatcher Rock is Middle Devonian Limestone, which is exactly the same kind of stone as Berry Head in Brixham.\nTo get the best possible land view of the rock, you need to go up Isham Marine Drive close to Meadfoot Beach. There you will be amazed at the beauty of this breathtaking scenic area with some of the most fabulous houses in the entire Bay \u2013 some valued at north of \u00a33 million!\nIt\u2019s a great walking area and you\u2019ll be truly impressed at the view of the rock. The cliffs are steep, so great care needs to be taken if you decide to explore. The whole area is very special and it has a mystical and magical feel to it.\nFolklore has it that a mad monk lived on the rock. He would live on a diet of fish and seagulls and had to rely on the rain water from the rock pools in order to survive. He was loved by the locals, with special boat trips arranged to see him and people throwing gifts to him on the rock.\nSome locals say to their children that the rock is Neverland where Peter Pan lives. Others say it reminds them of Tracy Island from Thunderbirds.\nThe official reason as to why it\u2019s called Thatcher Rock is because if you look at the Rock from a right angle there is a small outcrop that looks like a Thatcher working on the roof of a Devon Cottage.\nGo and see it from Ilsham Marine Drive. You will not be disappointed.\nPreviousISAMBARD KINGDOM BRUNEL PLANS TO RETIRE TO TORQUAY\nNextBusiness Person of the Month \u2013 Alexis Robertson",

These comments included a proposal to allow days of constructive presence for business or personal travel outside of the relevant U.S. territory. The Treasury Department and the IRS have concluded that it would be appropriate to allow additional days of constructive presence subject to certain limitations. Accordingly, these proposed regulations provide an additional rule for calculating days of presence in the relevant U.S. territory for purposes of the presence test in Sec. 1.937-1(c)(1).\nUnder the proposed amendment, an individual would be considered to be present in the relevant U.S. territory for up to 30 days during which the individual is outside of both the United States and the relevant U.S. territory. The proposed amendment would not apply, however, if the number of days that the individual is considered to be present in the United States during the taxable year equals or exceeds the number of days that the individual is considered to be present in the relevant U.S. territory during the taxable year, determined without taking into account any days for which the individual would be treated as present in the U.S. territory under this proposed amendment. Furthermore, the 30-day constructive presence rule would not apply for purposes of calculating the minimum 60 days of presence in the relevant U.S. territory that is required for the 549-day test under Sec. 1.937-1(c)(1)(ii). Therefore, an individual invoking Sec. 1.937-1(c)(1)(ii) must otherwise be considered to have been present at least 60 days in the relevant U.S. territory in each of the three years in order to benefit from the 30-day constructive presence rule.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Going on an extended road trip is a fantastic way to see Australia. However, depending on the choices you make, it can also be costly. If you plan to set out on a long road trip across or around Australia, but you are worried about how much it might cost, you should check out the following tips.\nConsider your accommodation options\nOne of the largest costs associated with an extended trip is the nightly accommodation you will require. While you may be able to sleep in your car now and again to save a bit of cash, this will not be possible on a long-term basis. Nightly stays in hotels can soon add up and eat up your entire budget. For this reason, you should focus your attention on motels which are on the route you wish to take.\nLook for a motel with an in-room kitchenette\nAfter accommodation, the second biggest cost is likely to be food. While you may wish to occasionally treat yourself to a meal in a restaurant attached to a motel, you should try to keep costs down by preparing your own food. When searching for motels to stay in on your long-distance road trip, you should look for a business which offers an in-room kitchenette. Although an in-room kitchenette will be basic, it should contain a small fridge and microwave along with utensils and cutlery. This equipment will make it possible for you to enjoy tasty but basic homemade food every evening.\nLook for a motel which is located away from built-up areas\nBecause you will be driving, you will be able to reach motels which are located a little way off the beaten track. Accommodation which is located in major cities or built-up areas is likely to be much more expensive than the type which is located further out. This is often a result of higher demand for rooms because of the increased access to other services and attractions and the higher business rent which the motel owner will need to pay to the local authorities.\nCheck if you are eligible for a discount\nIf you are going to be staying in several motels which are all part of the same chain, you should contact the company before you book to see if you are eligible for any form of discount. Many motels have loyalty schemes for regular customers which could help you to save a few dollars.\nFor further information, you should contact a motel company today.",

He also approved the Minister of State Budget and National Planning, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed, as her successor.\nHere is the full text of Adeosun\u2019s resignation letter, dated September 14, 2018.\n\u201cHis Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari\nState House, Aso Villa, Abuja.\n\u201cDear Excellency, let me commence by thanking you profusely for the honour and privilege of serving under your inspirational leadership.\n\u201cYour Excellency, kindly permit me to outline some of the background to this matter.\nI was born and raised in the United Kingdom, indeed my parental family home remains in London.\nMy visits to Nigeria up until the age of thirty-four (34) were holidays, with visas obtained in my UK passport.\n\u201cI obtained my first Nigerian passport at the age of 34 and when I relocated there was debate as to whether NYSC Law applied to me.\n\u201cUpon enquiry as to my status relating to NYSC, I was informed that due to my residency history and having exceeded the age of thirty (30), I was exempted from the requirement to serve. Until recent events, that remained my understanding.\n\u201cOn the basis of that advice and with the guidance and assistance of those, I thought were trusted associates, NYSC were approached for documentary proof of status.\nI then received the certificate in question.\nHaving never worked in NYSC, visited the premises, been privy to nor familiar with their operations, I had no reason to suspect that the certificate was anything, but genuine.\n\u201cBe that as it may, as someone totally committed to a culture of probity and accountability, I have decided to resign with effect from Friday, September 14, 2018.\n\u201cYour Excellency, it has been an exceptional privilege to have served our nation under your leadership and to have played a role in steering our economy at a very challenging time.\n\u201cI am proud that Nigeria has brought discipline into its finances, has identified and is pursuing a path to long term sustainable growth that will unlock the potential in this great economy.\nRead Also: Breaking: Atiku picks a running mate\n\u201cUnder your leadership, Nigeria was able to exit recession and has now started to lay the foundations for lasting growth and wealth creation.\nRepositioning this huge economy is not a short term task and there are no short cuts, indeed there are tough decisions still to be made but I have no doubt that your focus on infrastructural investment, revenue mobilisation and value for money in public expenditure will deliver growth, wealth and opportunity for all Nigerians.\n\u201cI thank His Excellency, the Vice President and my colleagues in the Federal Executive Council for the huge pleasure and honour of working with them.\nI also thank most specially, the team in the \u2018Finance Family\u2019 of advisers and heads of agencies under the Ministry of Finance.\n\u201cYour Excellency, this group of committed Nigerians represents a range of backgrounds, ethnicities and ages.\nThey have worked well above and beyond the call of duty to support me in the tasks assigned.\n\u201cThe diversity in my team and their ability to work cohesively to deliver reforms convinces me that Nigeria has the human capital required to succeed.\n\u201cYour Excellency, let me conclude by commending your patience and support, during the long search for the truth in this matter.\n\u201c I thank you again for giving me the honour of serving under your leadership, it is a rare privilege, which I do not take for granted.\n-Kemi Adeosun (Mrs.)\nIntrigues, drama behind Kemi Adeosun\u2019s fall\nRead Also: Tall Women May Be At Increased Risk For Dangerous Heart Condition\nRead Also: Iyanya \u2013 Hold On (Prod.

        "raw_content": "Technical Editor: Gianluca Hotz, Herbert Albert\nThis book walks you through your first steps in T-SQL (also known as Transact-SQL), which is the Microsoft SQL Server dialect of the ISO and ANSI standards for SQL. You\u2019ll learn the theory behind T-SQL querying and programming and how to develop T-SQL code to query and modify data, and you\u2019ll get an overview of programmable objects.\nAlthough this book is intended for beginners, it is not merely a set of procedures for readers to follow. It goes beyond the syntactical elements of T-SQL and explains the logic behind the language and its elements.\nOccasionally, the book covers subjects that may be considered advanced for readers who are new to T-SQL; therefore, those sections are optional reading. If you already feel comfortable with the material discussed in the book up to that point, you might want to tackle the more advanced subjects; otherwise, feel free to skip those sections and return to them after you\u2019ve gained more experience. The text will indicate when a section may be considered more advanced and is provided as optional reading.\nMany aspects of SQL are unique to the language and are very different from other programming languages. This book helps you adopt the right state of mind and gain a true understanding of the language elements. You learn how to think in terms of sets and follow good SQL programming practices.\nThe book is not version specific; it does, however, cover language elements that were introduced in recent versions of SQL Server, including SQL Server 2012. When I discuss language elements that were introduced recently, I specify the version in which they were added.\nBesides being available in an on-premises flavor, SQL Server is also available as a cloud-based service called Windows Azure SQL Database (formerly called SQL Azure). The code samples in this book were tested against both on-premises SQL Server and SQL Database. The book\u2019s companion website (http://tsql.solidq.com) provides information about compatibility issues between the flavors\u2014for example, features that are available in SQL Server 2012 but not yet in SQL Database.\nThis book is intended for T-SQL developers, DBAs, BI practitioners, report writers, analysts, architects, and SQL Server power users who just started working with SQL Server and need to write queries and develop code using Transact-SQL.\nAssumptions: To get the most out of this book, you should have working experience with Windows and with applications based on Windows. You should also be familiar with basic concepts concerning relational database management systems.\nNot every book is aimed at every possible audience. This book covers fundamentals. It is mainly aimed at T-SQL practitioners with little or no experience. With that said, several readers of the previous edition of this book have mentioned that\u2014even though they already had years of experience\u2014they still found the book useful for filling gaps in their knowledge.\nThis book starts with both a theoretical background to T-SQL querying and programming in Chapter 1, laying the foundations for the rest of the book, and also coverage of creating tables and defining data integrity. The book moves on to various aspects of querying and modifying data in Chapters 2 through 8, then to a discussion of concurrency and transactions in Chapter 9, and finally provides an overview of programmable objects in Chapter 10. The following section lists the chapter titles along with a short description:\nChapter 1, \u201cBackground to T-SQL Querying and Programming,\u201d provides a theoretical background of SQL, set theory, and predicate logic; examines the relational model and more; describes SQL Server\u2019s architecture; and explains how to create tables and define data integrity.\nChapter 2, \u201cSingle-Table Queries,\u201d covers various aspects of querying a single table by using the SELECT statement.\nChapter 3, \u201cJoins,\u201d covers querying multiple tables by using joins, including cross joins, inner joins, and outer joins.\nChapter 5, \u201cTable Expressions,\u201d covers derived tables, common table expressions (CTEs), views, inline table-valued functions, and the APPLY operator.\nChapter 6, \u201cSet Operators,\u201d covers the set operators UNION, INTERSECT, and EXCEPT.\nChapter 7, \u201cBeyond the Fundamentals of Querying,\u201d covers window functions, pivoting, unpivoting, and working with grouping sets.\nChapter 9, \u201cTransactions and Concurrency,\u201d covers concurrency of user connections that work with the same data simultaneously; it covers concepts including transactions, locks, blocking, isolation levels, and deadlocks.\nChapter 10, \u201cProgrammable Objects,\u201d provides an overview of the T-SQL programming capabilities in SQL Server.\nThe book also provides an appendix, \u201cGetting Started,\u201d to help you set up your environment, download the book\u2019s source code, install the TSQL2012 sample database, start writing code against SQL Server, and learn how to get help by working with SQL Server Books Online.\nChapter 2: Single-Table Queries \u2013 Online\nChapter 4: Subqueries \u2013 Download\nT-SQL Fundamentals 2012 \u2013 Submit Errata\nT-SQL Fundamentals 2012 \u2013 Submitted Errata\nT-SQL Fundamentals 2012 \u2013 Old Errata",

        "raw_content": "In one of the great speeches of the 20th century, General Charles de Gaulle on BBC Radio on June 18,1940 spoke to the French people after the government of France had capitulated to Nazi Germany. Optimistically, he argued that France would be able in the future to overcome the enemy by a \"superior mechanical force.\" The fate of the world depended on it.\nHope, de Gaulle said, must not disappear.\nToday, the democratic world must respond to the enemy, radical Islam and Islamist terrorism, with the same force and in the same spirit that de Gaulle embodied. The task has become increasingly difficult and complicated with the changing nature of the threat and the varied massacres and terrorist Islamist attacks. The West has also now become aware of the sophisticated propaganda machine of the jihadist terrorist groups, especially ISIS, whose propaganda spreads on the internet, Skype, Facebook, YouTube, and satellite outlets. Now revelations about one intelligence unit, EMNI, responsible for an external terrorist network, of the secret service of ISIS, is the latest cause for Western concern.\nThe first organized attack on the West came from groups such as al-Qaeda that concentrated on important or symbolic targets. Osama bin Laden was responsible for 9/11 and war on U.S., arguing that the U.S. had massacred Muslim people and supported Israel. To this attack was added the fight against those regimes, including Saudi Arabia, that aided the U.S.\nThen terrorist groups in different countries attacked \"soft targets\" \u2013 train stations and hotels. More recently, so-called lone wolf jihadists have attacked Jewish museums, night clubs, the promenade of a fashionable seaside resort, in European countries.\nIt is essential for all defending Western civilization to be aware of the ideology that drives all these different terrorist activities. The rise of Islamist violence and terrorism has illustrated a clash of cultures in the world, not universal agreement on some hypothetical end of history. Muslim societies accepting that \"the Koran is our Constitution\" are antithetical to Western democracies and the secular rule of law. Glorification of terrorists is incompatible with a system of law and order, however imperfect. The rise of jihadism stems from an extreme form of Islam, not the revenge of Muslim countries for Western colonialism.\nThe problem for the West started in the 18th century in the area of Najd in the Arabian Peninsula, when two men met. One was a religious figure, Abd al-Wahhab, son of an Islamic cleric (juge) who wanted to stop Bedouins from being pagans. The objective was to return to a \"pure\" Islam, that of the Prophet and his companions. This was the extreme, puritanical, and rigid form of Islamist doctrine. This overlaps with Salafism, which goes back to an even earlier period, the first three generations of Islam, the so-called \"Pious Predecessors.\"\nIn the small town of Diriya, Wahhab in 1744 met Ibn Saud, ruler of the area, and agreed on an arrangement. This was the pact that involved the lowering of taxes on agricultural products and the raising of revenue by a process of jihad and conquest of neighboring cities on one side and religious extremism on the other.\nThe alliance of the two men led to conquest of Arabia and the imposition of both centralized administration and the extreme religious point of view on it. The area gradually changed from continual tribal wars in search of spoils to a political center and a dominant Saudi ruling family, and to Wahhabism, an extreme form of Islam, as the dominant form.\nAt first, Wahhabism was concerned with defense of Muslim countries against \"impurity\" within them. This meant having a military force, a fanatical sect that included mercenaries. Then grew the emphasis on jihad, the assault of Western systems, that became more urgent with the creation by Hassan al-Banna, a 22-year old teacher, in 1928 in Cairo of the Muslim Brotherhood.\nIt was the first important movement that tried to unite activist Muslims to affirm an Islamic identity in the face of British and French colonialism. Therefore, a major objective of Banna was the restoration of the caliphate, a political system that had been abolished by Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Ataturk in 1924, to rule over Arab countries. Moreover, that caliphate was to exercise political power, to become politically important, and to reform society.\nParenthetically, Banna was the grandfather of Tariq Ramadan, the Swiss-born academic, often a spokesperson for the Brotherhood and an extreme critic of Israel. In 2013, he wrote that the overthrow of the Egyptian president, Mohamed Morsi, Brotherhood leader, was orchestrated by a conspiracy of the U.S. and Israel.\nInherent in the position of the Brotherhood is that the Muslim ruler should be destroyed if he contravenes the divine law. The Brotherhood had tried to assassinate President Gamal Abdel Nasser in October 1954 and succeeded in assassinating President Anwar Sadat on October 6, 1981.\nIn the 1960s, the Brotherhood became even more extreme with the influence of Sayyid Qutb, who emphasized resort to violence and overthrow of bad Muslim governments. It was the teaching of Qutb, who was executed in 1966, that led to Sadat's assassination and to continuing jihadism.\nFor the West, the threat of Salafist jihadist terrorism stems from the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. The opposition to that event was a combination of Saudi and American force, the employment of American money and the CIA, and the recruitment of local fighters by the U.S. and Pakistan. Motives were different. The U.S. was engaged in the Cold War with the Soviet Union. The local fighters were liberating territory of an occupied Muslim country. The Taliban was born.\nSalafists are of various kinds. Some insist on piety, education, and predication; others are more interested in political and nonviolent reforms. The third group, advocates of global jihadism, is what affects the West and Muslim countries.\nStarting in the fight against regimes of Algeria and Egypt, jihadism spread to Albania and the Caucasus. By late 1990s, global jihad against the West was basis of al-Qaeda. The fall of Saddam Hussein led al-Qaeda to become influential in Iraq. Organized jihadism then became nihilist, with the creation of ISIS in 2006 and the caliphate in 2013, both jihadist and a territorial state.\nLike de Gaulle in 1940 fighting against Nazi Germany, Western leaders, together with Russia, must pluck up courage and fight the evil. It helps to know who the enemy is. The next president of the U.S. must fight from the front, not from behind.",

[Herbal Cures: Traditional Approach]\nT. tricuspidata is considered to be medicinally important in several traditional systems. In ayurvedic medicines, the fruits are used in the treatment of asthma, earache and ozoena (intranasal crusting, atrophy and fetid odor). In the Unani system of medicine, the fruits are used as a carminative (an agent that relieves flatulence), a purgative, and an abortifacient, to lessen inflammation, cure migraines, and reduce heat of the brain, as a treatment for opthalmia (inflammation of the eye), leprosy (infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae), epilepsy (episodic impairment or loss of consciousness, abnormal motor phenomenon) and rheumatism, (painful local inflammation of joints and muscles) as well as other uses. The seeds are emetic and a good purgative. In the Thai traditional system of medicine, the plant is used as an anti-fever remedy, a laxative, an anthelmintic as well as in migraine treatments . The roots of the plant are used to treat lung diseases in cattle and for the treatment of diabetic carbuncles and headaches . The plant is also used in curing bronchitis, and the application of seed paste for hoof and mouth disease in cattle.\nThe vaidyas, or practictioners of ayurveda, also use the fruits in treating stomatitis. The oil extracted from the roots is used as a pain killer. The plant is also used for curing snakebite poisoning and the juice of the plant is applied externally for skin eruptions. In Nepal the roots are used to cure bleeding in chickens.\nTetrahydroxy pentacyclic triterpene \u201ctrichotetrol\u201d could be extracted from the root extract of this vine. From the fruits of T. tricuspidata, 14 cucurbitane glycosides were isolated . An extract of the fruits of this plant was found to be cytotoxic in KB cells, and two new cucurbitacins were reported: tricuspidatin and 2-O-glucocucurbitacin J. (12). The plant contains a protease from the sarcocarp of the fruits of this plant. The root contains methyl palmitate, palmitic acid, suberic acid, \u03b1-spinasterol, stigmast-7-en-3-beta-ol, \u03b1-spinasterol 3-o-beta-D-glucopyranoside, stigmast-7-en-3-beta-ol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, glyceryl 1-palmitate, glyceryl 1-stearate, bryonolic acid, cucurbitacin B, isocucurbitacin B, 3-epi-isocucurbitacin B, 23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin D, isocucurbitacin D and D-glucose. The roots of T. tricuspidata contain more than 6 times more cucurbitacin than the roots of T. kirilowii Maxim. Var. japonicum Kitam. (\nIn Malaysia, the leaves of Trichosanthes tricuspidata Lour., orsan jian gua lou (Chinese), are reduced to a paste which is applied to boils. Indonesians drink the sap squeezed from the fresh leaves to stop diarrhea. The fruits are known to abound with a series of cucurbitacins, including tricuspidatin and 2-O-glucocucurbitacin J, which inhibit the survival of KB cells cultured in vitro. Such compounds probably explain the antitumor effects of extracts of Trichosanthes root tubers on HepA-H cells and HeLa cells reported by Dou and Li. Cucurbitane saponins are known to occur in the leaves and stems. [Medicinal",

(image: Blake McGuire)\nPretend fortunes came and went, with some people hustling the poker table with over $20,000 Friday at UFV\u2019s Winter Formal. The night was hosted by several UFV clubs and associations at AfterMath and the north gym. Previously known as the Casino Royale, the Winter Formal is very much the same event, with the addition of a dance floor.\nThis year, the main attractions were the dance floor, the bar, two poker tables, three blackjack tables, and an unusual amount of empty space in the gym. After a while, it became rather difficult to join a game of poker, or blackjack, as the tables were mobbed by gambling enthusiasts.\nLast year, there were one or two more poker tables, as well as a few more blackjack tables and two roulette wheels. There was certainly no shortage of space at the event this year, but hopefully the organizers will see how popular the event was and will better accommodate the large number of players next year.\nThe casino itself was fun, as always. Everyone who came was provided with $2,000 of play money to use on the game floor. I found that the money went a little too fast; the smallest denomination of chips was $100, so any and all mistakes were costly.\nThe dance floor was in the corner of the gym, and after the night was in full-swing, the dance floor was packed with dancers. Two attendees who were well-versed in the art of dance schooled the rest of the dancers with a few stunning tangos, and then offered to teach them some simple dance moves to do together. Unfortunately, there were a number of people who were somewhat disappointed that the night neglected to include any sort of formal dance music. But the music on the dance floor didn\u2019t stop two students from swing-dancing, much to the amusement and bafflement of the other dancers.\nAfterMath also catered the event with the usual high quality we have come to expect, but also a rather long wait time. This was understandable due to the size of the crowd, but logical explanation doesn\u2019t do much to settle a growling stomach.\nAt the end of the night, raffle tickets were sold at the price of $1,000 a ticket. The prize spread was actually pretty good, with three or four Doctor Who lots, as well as Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Adventure Time, Star Trek, Game of Thrones, gaming equipment prizes, and others. One lucky attendee won three separate prize lots with her $22,000 in winnings.\nRelated Topics:Daniel HolmbergStudent Union SocietySUS\nIan Guillen\nwish to play",

This has caused some companies to cut corners while making the kits and hence come up with low quality products. Before purchasing a kit, it is prudent to determine the kind of drugs that a person intends to test. For instance, a specific kit might be required for testing cannabis. The essence of purchasing an expensive kit is that it can test more than one drug at a time. Using protective clothing is very important for those seeking to purchase a drug testing kit.\nAny person should have a good knowledge of how the kit functions. A number of kits to be found in pharmacies today use urine to test for drugs. It is also possible to find kits which might be used for testing saliva. For most people, finding the best kit can be a daunting process. Some hints can make it easier for a person to find a reliable kit. First and foremost, it is always important to ask around.\nWhen asking around, a person should go for the reliable friends. If a family member has used a drug testing kit recently, he might offer reliable advice for the client. While asking for advice about a drug testing kit, some people will be quite embarrassed. In such circumstances, it might be more reasonable to ask a pharmacist about the same. To learn more about a drug testing kit, it is advisable to ask for advice from a sales clerk. Before purchasing a drug testing kit, it is important to consider issues of accuracy.\nIf the drug kit is not accurate, a person might end up wasting a lot of money. If the kit is not precise, a person might end up wasting a lot of time. As a rule of the thumb, cheap drug testing kits are not likely to be accurate. One of the main benefits of using costly kits is that they give accurate results.\nThe Company that developed the drug testing kit should always be taken into account by the client. The main reason why some people like purchasing the kits from certain companies is because they have a good reputation. Before settling on a particular kit, the client should always ensure that it has been certified by the relevant authorities.\nPrevious post: The Path To Finding Better Urinalysis\nNext post: News For This Month: Suppliers",

        "raw_content": "Urban Only In Name-THE INDIAN EXPRESS\nNovember 22, 2018 EXAM MADE EASY\tINDIAN EXPRESS\nUrban Only In Name\nPolicies have not given small towns their due\nSama Khan, [ The writer is with the Centre for Policy Research, Delhi]\nSmall towns in India are something of an oxymoron. They are far removed from cities in character and appearance and are constantly struggling to establish their \u201curbanness\u201d. A drive along the outskirts of Gajraula, a small town in Uttar Pradesh, will reveal impressive fast food and retail joints, industrial plants and higher education institutes. But the town\u2019s interior represents a different picture. It\u2019s riddled with open drains, lacks sewerage along and is heavily-polluted. Sardhana, in contrast, boasts of a rich historical past \u2014 it\u2019s home to the famous early 19th-century church built by Begum Samru. But Sardhana, which is situated away from the national highway, fares poorly on development parameters like Gajraula.\nEvery small town in India has its unique story and significance but their problems are similar \u2014 lack of basic services, dilapidated infrastructure, overcrowded spaces and dwindling job opportunities. However, these towns have thriving marketplaces with urbanesque spaces like supermarkets, beauty parlours and gymnasiums. They have private schools and clinics, a variety of fast-food eateries, modern tailoring shops and mobile and electronic stores. Such entrepreneurial energy says something about the growing small-town population which desires better services and an improved quality of life. But this is relatively unrecognised by the government.\nThe UPA government\u2019s urban development programme, the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM), covered both big cities and small towns but gave financial preference to the former. The criticisms of JNNURM did lead the UPA government to change focus towards small towns in JNNURM-2. However, the change in government in 2014 led to amendments in urban policy. JNNURM was replaced by the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) that focusses on infrastructural development for Class I cities (those with a popu1ation of one lakh and above). The Smart Cities Mission (SCM) was launched to address our growing fascination with world-class cities that use technology to improve their services.\nThe common thread between these urban schemes is that they cater to Class I cities, which already have better access to services. For example, as per the 2011 census, 50 to 60 per cent of households in these cities have access to piped sewerage and closed drains. The percentage of population who have access to these services in smaller towns is way lower. One-fourth of the urban population lives in these small towns (20,000 to 1,00,000 population). These 7 crore people need amenities to match up to their \u201curban\u201d status. Many of these towns may not be in the vicinity of big cities. But though they are small in size, many of these small towns have an enormous growth potential. Yet, mega cities continue to be seen as engines of economic growth and attract large sums of central investments just to sustain the weight of their population. But what seems to be forgotten is that the smaller towns have been doing that for decades with very little policy attention.\nMany studies have shown that the benefits of small town development can spill over to villages, especially in terms of employment generation. Others have talked about the need for a well-spread network of cities to counter the problems of migration. But this discourse has remained at the level of the academia; it hasn\u2019t translated into policy. The debate between progress and development is not new \u2014 the former is largely about world-class cities while the latter focuses on a more inclusive agenda. But the current government\u2019s focus on big cities is problematic. The development of small towns can make these urban centres fulfill the long-standing demand for a link between rural India and the country\u2019s big cities and towns. The growing population in these small towns needs to be backed by adequate investments by the Centre. There should be a key role for these urban centres in development planning.\n\u2190 Amid institutional decline-THE HINDU\n\u0915\u093e\u0930\u094d\u092c\u0928 \u092a\u0926\u091a\u093f\u0939\u094d\u0928 (Carbon Footprint) \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0915\u092e\u0940 \u0915\u0930\u0928\u0947 \u0939\u0947\u0924\u0941 \u0906\u092d\u093e\u0938\u0940 \u091c\u0932\u0935\u093e\u092f\u0941 \u0936\u093f\u0916\u0930 \u0938\u092e\u094d\u092e\u0947\u0932\u0928 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Franchise: Terms and Definitions\nCommon Definition \u2013 A method of doing business by which a franchise is granted the right to engage in the business of offering, selling or distributing goods and services under a marketing plan or system prescribed in substantial part by a franchisor and which is substantially associated with the franchisor\u2019s trademark, name, logo and advertising.\nLegal Definition \u2013 Franchising is a contract or agreement, express or implied, oral or written, between two or more persons by which:\nA franchisee is granted the right to engage in the business of offering, selling or distributing goods or services under a marketing plan prescribed in substantial part by a franchisor;\nThe operation of the franchisee\u2019s business pursuant to that plan or system as substantially associated with the franchisor\u2019s trademark, service mark, tradename, logo type, advertising, or other commercial symbols designating the franchisor or its affiliates; and\nThe franchisee is required to pay directly or indirectly, a franchise fee.\nFranchisor \u2013 The parent company or operator of a franchise concept or system that grants, for a fee and other considerations, the right to use its name and system of business operations.\nFranchisee \u2013 An independent business person or novice entrepreneur who has been granted by the franchisor the right to duplicate its entire business format at a particular location and for a specified period, under terms and conditions set forth in the contract (franchise agreement).\nFranchise Agreement \u2013 A written contract detailing the mutual responsibilities of franchisors and franchisees. It is usually for a several-year term, and when the term is up, the contract expires and must be renewed. Some state laws require the contract to be renewable at the franchisee\u2019s option. Usually, a franchise agreement may not be sold, transferred or otherwise assigned without the franchisor\u2019s permission.\nOperations Manual \u2013 A written document which clearly explains the franchisor\u2019s standards of operation, and identifies the operational tasks required to establish and operate the franchise business. The operations manual supports and promotes the use of consistent and uniform day-to-day procedures at each franchise unit within the network franchise unit in order to maintain the quality of service and products in every franchise outlet.\nFranchise Opportunity \u2013 A franchise opportunity is a business opportunity that involves the sale of good and services that enable a novice entrepreneur to begin a franchise business.\nMaster (or Regional) Franchising \u2013 A model of multi-level franchising wherein the master franchisor sells the development rights in a particular geographic market to a master franchisee, who, in turn, sells individual or single-unit franchises within the territory. In return for a front-end master franchise fee, the master franchisee has the sole responsibility of developing that area or market under a mutually agreed upon schedule. The master franchisee is rewarded by sharing in the franchise fee and ongoing royalties paid by the franchisees within the territory to the master or parent franchisor.\nArea Development Agreement \u2013 This is another variation of multi-level franchising where the franchisor grants exclusive development rights for a particular geographic area to an area development investment group or an area developer. In return for the rights to an exclusive territory, the area developer pays the franchisor a front-end development fee and commits to develop a certain number of units within a specified period of time.\nInitial investment \u2013 The total capital required to start a franchise business. This typically includes Franchise Fee, Renovation, Equipment & Fixtures, Rent deposits, and Initial Inventory.\nFranchise Fee \u2013 The initial fee paid to the franchisor. The Franchise Fee usually includes training, site selection and evaluation assistance, and the rights to use the franchisor\u2019s trademark and business system.\nRoyalty \u2013 This is the fee paid to the Franchisor for continuing use of the trademark and in exchange for the franchisor\u2019s ongoing support services. This is usually a percentage of the franchised outlet\u2019s sales and is typically paid on a monthly basis.\nAdvertising Fee \u2013 Fee paid to the Franchisor as the franchisee\u2019s contribution to the marketing effort. This is usually a percentage of the franchisee sales and is often paid on a monthly basis.\nInitial Term of Agreement \u2013 The length of time the Franchise Agreement is in effect. If typical revenue and expense scenarios hold, the franchisee should be able to recover his initial investment within the initial term of agreement.\nTerritory \u2013 The franchisee\u2019s territory is the geographic area or domain in which his business operates. The franchisor may grant exclusivity to the territory, meaning no other franchised or company-owned outlet may open in that territory, or the rights of first refusal to the franchisee, meaning that if the area can support other outlets, the franchisee is given first option to do so. The franchisor may give rights to the franchisee only where his location stands, no more.\nFranchise Offered\nSingle Unit Franchise The franchisor grants franchises to an individual or entity one outlet at a time.\nArea Multi-Unit Franchise The franchisor grants the franchisee the right to open several units within a territory, within a prescribed time frame. Part of the Franchise Fee for the units are paid upfront, with the balance for each unit being paid upon signing of the individual franchise agreement.\nMaster Franchise (Area or Country) The Master Franchisee is both a franchisee and a franchisor. As a franchisee, he should open his own franchised units. As a franchisor, he is also responsible for finding, granting, and supporting sub- franchisees. For his effort, the Master Franchisee gets a share of the fees due the franchisor.",

        "raw_content": "Hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel bursts inside the brain, causing an increase of the fluid pressure on the brain and harms the brain by pressing it against the skull. Hemorrhagic stroke is associated with high blood pressure, which stresses the arterial walls until they break.\nYears ago I would have been the first to tell you that the best stroke was one that you didn\u2019t wake up from. Harsh I know but through my own experience I\u2019ve changed my opinion on the subject.\nSo no matter which winter activity you and your children choose, it\u2019s likely that your tots will greet the spring with renewed confidence, skill and a healthy outlook on what could have been the long, cold, grey days of winter.\nThe challenge with omega-3 fatty acids is we can't manufacture them in our bodies from other substances. We need to get our omega-3's from our diets. This is a difficult issue, because our diets don't contain the omega-3's which they used to. One big way people get omega-3's nowadays is through eating fish, specifically cold water fatty fish. So, you'd expect that folks who eat a lot of fish don't develop as many problems like strokes as individuals who don't. And usually this is basically the case...but not always.\nWeight loss and exercise will help you bring that blood pressure down. Good eating habits and consuming less salt and more potassium-rich foods are beneficial in controlling blood pressure. Potassium rich foods include white beans, lentils, baked sweet and white potatoes, cantaloupe, bananas, halibut, and salmon. In tackling the blood pressure challenge, make sure you check-in with your health care to provider so that, if needed, medication to aid in lowering blood pressure can be considered.\nMigraine sufferers who experience auras and female migraine sufferers taking estrogen are at a greater risk for stroke. The results of the study found that migraine sufferers with auras are at a 2.4 times greater risk for stroke from a blood clot, compared to migraine sufferers without auras.\nAt least a dozen clinical trials on humans are under way in the United States, Israel and England to test Curcumin, and articles on Curcumin have been cited 967 times since 2000 in articles reported in PubMed, the National Library of Medicine's research service. It's been demonstrated in human and animals models that Curcumin protects the liver, inhibits tumors by stopping precancerous changes within DNA and interferes with enzymes needed for cancer progression, reduces inflammation, fights some infections, and blocks toxic substance from reaching or reacting with body tissues. Curcumin has both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and it may help lower cholesterol by stopping the oxidation of cholesterol to promote vascular health.",

The two photos below were taken by his partner Jim Hutton in 1991 in the backyard of his home Garden Lodge in London.\nAlso according to Feelnumb, the photo below taken by paparazzi in late September of 1991, claims to be the absolute last known photo of Freddie Mercury alive. It was published in the Daily Mirror a few days after Mercury passed away on November 24, 1991.\nMercury died at home and the official cause of death was bronchial pneumonia resulting from AIDS.\nIn May, 2017, Queen guitarist Brian May has spoken of the impact Aids had on Freddie Mercury \u2013 revealing the frontman lost most of his foot as he battled with the disease. Speaking to the Sunday Times magazine, May said: \u201cThe problem was actually his foot, and tragically there was very little left of it. Once, he showed it to us at dinner. And he said, \u2018Oh Brian, I\u2019m sorry I\u2019ve upset you by showing you that.\u2019\n\u201cAnd I said, \u2018I\u2019m not upset, Freddie, except to realize you have to put up with all this terrible pain\u2019.\u201d\nThe guitarist said Mercury did not want to discuss his condition with the other members of the band initially \u2013 but they were aware of the gravity of his illness.\nAs May went on to point out, Mercury\u2019s death occurred shortly before major advancements in AIDS research led to the introduction of drug cocktails that help stave off the disease, allowing the diagnosed the possibility of long-term management \u2014 and helping prevent further agony for patients. Admitting it\u2019s difficult to know how close Mercury came to seeing those medications become available, May stressed that he stays focused on the legacy he left behind.\n\u201cHe missed by just a few months. If it had been a bit later he would still have been with us, I\u2019m sure,\u201d said May. \u201cYou can\u2019t do \u2018what if,\u2019 can you? You can\u2019t go there because therein lies madness.\u201d",

        "title": "Congressman Goodlatte Should Provide Leadership on Passing LEADS Act \u2013 The Virginia Conservative",
        "raw_content": "Congressman Goodlatte Should Provide Leadership on Passing LEADS Act\nA guest article by Dean Chambers\nPrivacy is a key right for all who use the internet as well as those who communicate and exchange key data needed in business. Privacy is under attack from a power grab undertaken by the Obama Justice Department under Attorney General Eric Holder, who asserted the power to take data from a server in Ireland owned a subsidiary doing business with Microsoft. Had that data been printed documents in that office in Ireland, the Justice Department would have approached the government of Ireland, under the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) between the two countries seeking a warrant to obtain that information. Data on computer servers should be subject to the same exact protections of law as data on printed document enjoys.\nThe answer to this judiciary power grab is the LEADS Act proposed by Sen. Orrin Hatch, that would protect the privacy of data against such encroachment. The ability of individuals to use the internet to communicate as well as that of businesses to communicate, invent and innovate using such \u201ccloud servers\u201d on the internet would be protect by enacting the LEADS Act. This legislation would restore balance under the Fourth Amendment, protecting privacy and allowing law enforcement to obtain data when authorized by a warrant from a judge or abiding by MLAT in the instance of data on a foreign server.\nThe privacy protections of computer data under the Electronic Communication Privacy Act (ECPA) would be extended to protect the privacy of data on overseas servers. Many businesses have operations and subsidiaries around the globe involved in creating new products and services using servers around the world. The data and processes involved would be protected, giving a competitive advantage to American businesses operating around the world.\nCongressman Bob Goodlatte has done some good work in the areas of copyright issues and internet piracy as well as introducing the Innovation Act to reduce frivolous patent infringement lawsuits by patent trolls. It would be very consistent with those efforts, and follow in the same direction, if Rep. Goodlatte would take the lead in helping to pass the LEADS Act in the House.\nWriting recently for The Hill, Karen S. Evans writes, \u201cLEADS will improve data privacy protections for U.S. citizens and residents while strengthening law enforcement cooperation with other nations. The bill also preserves the essential balance between security and privacy. At the same time, it will signal to our foreign partners that we are serious about improving law enforcement cooperation with them. In these times, such improvements are vital to ensuring effective functioning of our law enforcement agencies while maintaining the privacy rights of our citizens.\u201d\nThe key issue involved here, for individuals and businesses using the internet and servers to store and exchange data, is such data has the same protections as any data stored and exchanged in other forms. The use of such \u201ccloud servers\u201d allows a level of communication in innovation not previously possible.\n\u201cIt is legislation like LEADS that will help the U.S. achieve broader, much-needed ECPA reform. The goal is clear \u2013 the laws should ensure that data stored in the cloud receives the same legal protections as data stored in our homes and at work,\u201d Evans wrote in The Hill.\nThe LEADS Act is extremely important legislation that really needs to be enacted into law, and I strongly urge Rep. Goodlatte to take up the lead in getting this bill passed in the House. Mr. Goodlatte has done great work in the past to ensure the protection of privacy and other rights on the internet, and this is a great opportunity to do so again by helping pass the LEADS Act. The result will be a much stronger and prosperous America if this legislation is passed.\nDean Chambers is an independent journalist and blogger who has written news and commentary articles on a wide variety of subjects. His articles have been published on Examiner.com, The Inquisitr, Conservative Firing Line and have been featured on The Drudge Report, The Rush Limbaugh Program, The Blaze and The Gateway Pundit as well as parodied by Stephen Colbert, Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddow.\nCategoriesGuest Post, Political Musings TagsBob Goodlatte, Eric Holder, Karen Evans, LEADS Act, Orrin Hatch, Privacy, The Hill\nPrevious PostPrevious Divorce The Government And Marriage!\nNext PostNext Rights Come From the Majority?",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Wallonia \u203a News \u203a Three projects in France for the architect Pierre Hebbelinck\nThree projects in France for the architect Pierre Hebbelinck13/11/2018\nL'Atelier d'Architecture Pierre Hebbelinck (Li\u00e8ge) has been chosen to carry out three French renovation, restructuring and transformation projects, in Lyon and Chalon, in collaboration with the Lille architects HBAAT.\nInauguration of the Espace des Arts in Chalon\nThe National Stage at the Espace des Arts in Chalon-sur-Sa\u00f4ne was reopened at the end of September.\nThe Espace des Arts is one of the first major French buildings to offer culture accessible to all. -Its renovation and modernisation pose the issues of the imperatives surrounding it: spectator comfort with the identity of a city in its region, armchair padding offering relations with the territory...everything is related. Quite apart from its historic worth as a construction, the building is above all a piece of priceless patrimony. The memory of the place is a real root which we would like to preserve through this project. This will enable us to plan to best effect the construction-related aspects of this architecture, the legacy of lost modernity.\nThe venue includes 3 cinema rooms (to seat 850, 500 and 100), exhibition halls, a caf\u00e9, accommodation and space for artists. Visibility and access to the site are provided thanks to major work in reception areas and opening up the space beneath the cantilever of the large room, as well as the elevation of the stage tower for the artists\u2019 accommodation.\nRestructuring the Palais Guimet and building at Maison de la Danse in Lyon.\nAfter many trips to the East, the industrialist Emile Guimet decided to create the Palais Guimet, a sort of museum of Asiatic religions, in 1879. Since it was created, the Palais has seen successive, atypical and prestigious programmes which have made it the epitome of the architecture which is now to be restored. In this case, we are talking about reinventing the heritage of a bygone age by revealing the treasures of a heritage which has become lost in the mists of time, seeking to create a contemporary cultural facility resolutely visible from the city.\nCohabitation between the existing archaeology museum and the new programme defined by the Maison de la Danse results in gatherings spatially rewritten through the architectural work of those who pass through. The existing Rotunda is being scooped out, transforming it into a splendid meeting place by virtue of zenithal light and the presence of two-way circular traffic. The cinema room, triple-height and situated in the heart of the building, plays with the levels using the route taken by the balcony and staircases. Thus, the architecture incites \u201cbeing seen without being seen\u201d. The extension accentuates this feeling and subtly plays with the materiality of striated and transparent glass. It houses the staircase and the contemporary triangular stone of the Guimet edifice and thus creates a \u201ctheatre of shade and lights\u201d as users circulate.\nTransforming and extending the Theo Argence theatre in Lyon.\nThe project aims to provide comfort both for artists \u2013 through dressing rooms and the quality of the two rooms as space for games, acoustics and a stage design tool \u2013 and players in theatre life, from the usherette to the director, not to mention technicians, and finally the public, newcomers and long-established enthusiasts alike.\nLike any city theatre, the renovation project will focus on three areas. Firstly, the view of the floor is being transformed to bring it into line with the large space overlooking place Ferdinand Buisson. The second aspect is something that some might define as the body of the theatre, transforming the stage and reworking access in the two large rooms, but especially extending the back in order to set the scene at city level. By playing with the transparent and opalescent glazing of the rear fa\u00e7ade, overhanging the front fa\u00e7ade, the theatre\u2019s interior light thus shines like a city street lamp. Finally, reorganising administrative departments, technical facilities and dressing rooms, placed either side of the large room, will make theatre life visible from the city.",

        "title": "Eldraco Price fuses politics with music - Webster JournalWebster Journal",
        "raw_content": "Eldraco Price fuses politics with music\nEldraco Price is a Webster alum who wanted to be a politician, but when he gained his love for music he realized his passion was singing. But it was not always that easy for him.\n\u201cMy first music performance was a solo in church and it was during a blizzard, so there were literally two people at church. I bawled my eyes out because I had to sing a solo. I just cried because I used to have anxiety attacks,\u201d Price said.\nBy senior year, Price could be found in the University Center singing anything he could at the top of his lungs with no panic attacks.\nPrice\u2019s newfound confidence in singing was sparked by combining his music with politics. He used his shows to raise money for people in need, such as Francis Ladege, a former Webster employee deported by ICE earlier this year. He and his band managed to put the show on in only four days. He said he wishes everything could go back to love.\n\u201cI think the biggest solution to most problems in society is love and understanding and compassion, unity and finding a way to free yourself,\u201d Price said. \u201cThat\u2019s not a good thing to feel when life is so short and precious, but it can also be the longest thing ever if you are living out your life feathered.\u201d\nPrice uses his music to share his story. He said he truly believes the message of a quote by singer Nina Simone: \u201cIt is the duty of an artist to be reflective of the times that they\u2019re living in.\u201d\n\u201cI love being the process that helps make a difference and the remedy to what trouble is made,\u201d Price said. \u201cIt makes me feel centered.\u201d\nGrowing up with charity as a part of his life was never questioned. He volunteered at local food pantries when he could, but mostly now does administrative work for his father\u2019s old church and food pantry.\n\u201cThat was something that I participated in, not because it was gratifying for me, but just because that\u2019s what I was taught by my parents was my duty as a human being to, to help service other people,\u201d Price said.\nPrice said he loves to create music and is working on an album. He said he also wishes to go on tour one day.\n\u201cDuring a performance you\u2019re sending the energy of freedom and excitement out, giving people a zest for life,\u201d Price said. \u201cIt gives everyone the same opportunity to feel good.\u201d\nPrice said he wants his shows to be life-changing\u2013\u2013to bring together a multitude of things people are not used to: R&B, soul, jazz, percussion and rock. He said he would not be able to do the shows, however, without the help of his band.\nJordyn Patterson is Price\u2019s background vocalist and executive assistant. Now one of his close friends, she was nervous the first time he approached her. But, she said she has loved him ever since.\n\u201cPrice treats everyone like they\u2019re his family,\u201d Patterson said, \u201cI learn a whole hell of a lot, like an insane amount, every single time that we do anything. I learned about being a professional, about being a human first, and then an artist, and how the two combine. I learn a lot about music; theory wise, history wise, he\u2019s like a book.\u201d\nNathan Rauscher, Price\u2019s percussionist and music arranger said Price\u2019s energy and general vibe creates a harmonious musical environment.\n\u201cA star, like the sun, is so powerful in gravity, that it causes atoms to fuse together,\u201d Rauscher said. \u201cIt\u2019s that powerful, and the energy release causes a chain that fuses more. That is who he is. That kind of explosive energy brings out the best in all of them when they work together.\u201d\nProfessionalism was another thing his bandmates valued about Price\u2019s friendship. Luke Sailor, keyboardist and music director, said Price\u2019s knowledge is what motivates Sailor to work in music.\n\u201cHis wealth of knowledge is genius,\u201d Sailor said. \u201cHe has had professional experience before. Him having experience learning charts with rehearsals and tight deadlines, really pushes professionalism. [He is] quite an asset.\u201d\nPrice\u2019s experience motivated him and his bandmates to put their passion into action. The way to get there, Price said, is an open mind.\n\u201cBegin the journey towards figuring out what you want in life,\u201d Price said. \u201cAnd don\u2019t limit yourself in that thinking.\u201d\nStudent Megan Price brings political passion to Webster and beyond\nWebster University student Megan Price first experience with politics was attending President Obama's inauguration in\u2026\nMusic department selects full-time professor\nIn the fall 2011 semester, Webster\u2019s Music Department will have a new addition; Martha Hart\u2026",

She has managed to snag the lead in four different places and can\u2019t really go anywhere. I did free her up, but she doesn\u2019t like anyone or anything but my neighbor.]\nI always have to laugh at the photos of your neighbor\u2019s cats on their tethers. How\u2026 un-catlike! Though the disgruntled expression on Boots\u2019s face is very cat-like indeed, heh.\nShe doesn\u2019t look too happy in a harness!\nShe\u2019s not wearing a harness, Jams. That\u2019s what\u2019s so funny about the neighbor\u2019s cats, they\u2019re wearing just ordinary cat collars that they could slip in a few minutes if they cared to, but somehow the neighbor has trained them to not do so. How\u2026 uncat-like!\nShe is spared the indignities heaped upon the youngest cat in the household, Wonder. When he is outside Froggy, among others, have a habit of grabbing his rope and stopping him. The three older cats are big enough to just haul the ferals along until they lose interest, but Wonder gets hauled up short.\nMy neighbor says you have to start at 8-weeks-old to get them to tolerate the collar and rope, and he has managed to do it to all four cats.\nBootsie was the first, and she tolerates it, but certainly doesn\u2019t like it, as indicated by the picture.\nThat\u2019s a fun picture. You\u2019re a good guy to unsnag her. It\u2019s nice the neighbor can tie his cats out. I\u2019m sure they enjoy the direct sunlight, and watching the birds.\nActually, it is more about being able to run a decent distance, as they are in a small house with furniture in the way. They don\u2019t spend too much time near each other when they are outside.",

I do not try to tell you how you should live and who your partner should be, but I do have thoughts and ideas about what is right and wrong and I despised living in a world that crucified you for expressing that being homosexual is wrong. I have my opinions and I should not be ostracized for expressing them, especially when the opposite view point gets supported by the government and many others so called specialty groups\u2026\nI believe that Russia is on the correct path with the issues of homosexuality and they need to keep the rudder in that direction and never change\u2026\nThe Constitutional Court of Russia has acknowledged the ban of homosexual propaganda among the under age as lawful and dismissed a complaint by well-known LGBT activists. The ruling was made in response to a complaint lodged by activists Nikolay Alekseev, Yaroslav Evtushenko and Dmitry Isakov. They tried to dispute the law section of Russia\u2019s administrative code that describes how the law defines \u201cpropaganda of non-conventional sexual relationships to minors.\u201d (Read More)\nDecisions like this quote above are the reason why the West targets Russia. They hate that Russia shows the world that there is an alternative to the western idiosyncrasies. Yet if the West would quit spotlighting Russia in propaganda, they would not have to worry about people in the west seeing alternate lifestyles than theirs. Russians are happy in their world and the west needs to stay away and western people are too damn lazy to even look around to see what is happening. Status quo is the western lifestyle of choice for the peasants\u2026\nHomosexual Propaganda Among Minors is Illegal in Russia; Now that is something that makes sense in this messed up, sick, degraded world that we live in. We are killing innocents everyday all over the world and we are ignoring starving people all over the world and we war like there is no tomorrow, but we ignore all that important stuff and make gay rights a forefront issue. That is the west for you and the east is confused as to why you do it\u2026\nI am not confused, you do it for distraction. The west is a distraction of extroverts and the east is confused by that introverts\u2026\nI hope to see a new America, for the old one is malvado\u2026",

        "raw_content": "New Toolkit to Fight Detention and Deportation Authored and Inspired by Impacted Southeast Asian American Families\nJulie Mao, NIPNLG, (202) 470-2082\nElaine Sanchez Wilson, SEARAC (202) 601-2970\nNIPNLG, together with the #ReleaseMN8 campaign, Southeast Asia Resource Action Center (SEARAC), and the University of Minnesota James H. Binger Center of New Americans, today launches the Southeast Asian American Solidarity Toolkit: A Guide to Resisting Detentions and Deportations from the #ReleaseMN8 Campaign.\nDownload the toolkit \u00bb\nThis one-of-a-kind resource provides organizing, advocacy, and legal tools, tips, and resources to support families whose loved ones are facing detention and removal. Authored by impacted family members, campaign organizers, lawyers, and advocates, the toolkit offers insight into how a small Minnesota community inspired a nationwide movement to save its loved ones from deportation to Cambodia.\nThe #ReleaseMN8 campaign was created in 2016 when eight Cambodian men were abruptly detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for immediate deportation. These lawful permanent residents, who came into the U.S. as refugee children and babies, were being deported for old criminal convictions for which they had already served their sentences.\nSince 1998, more than 16,000 Southeast Asian immigrants have been issued orders of deportation, but less than 2,000 have been deported. Over 14,000 of these individuals are living in the U.S. in a state of limbo, uncertain of when ICE will once again try to detain them.[1]\nDue to the unique post-war diplomatic relationships between the U.S. and Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam, the deportation process to these countries generally takes longer compared to others. During that extended processing time, many community members transform their lives, buy homes, and start families and businesses, only to be detained years and even decades later for old offenses committed in their youth.\nThis toolkit comes at a time when fear among Southeast Asian American families is at an all-time high following U.S. sanctions on Cambodia and Laos; the biggest Cambodian and Vietnamese detention roundup in 2017; and the biggest deportation of Cambodian immigrants on one flight in 2018.\n\u201cOur campaign was founded by the love we had for our families and for our community,\" said #ReleaseMN8 campaign organizer Jenny Srey, whose husband Ched was able to secure deportation relief. \u201cWe believe all families have the right to be together and want to remain engaged in this movement to support other families who are at risk of being ripped apart. Impacted families often want to fight for their loved ones, but are overwhelmed and don\u2019t know where to begin. We hope this guide helps families see that they have the power to organize and to fight for change.\u201d\n\"I hope the lessons learned during the #ReleaseMN8 campaign and distilled in this Toolkit demonstrate that liberation is possible even under the Trump Administration, when communities organize, defend themselves, and work in collaboration with dedicated lawyering.\u201d\nJulie Mao, NIPNLG\nJulie Mao, attorney from NIPNLG, said, \"This Toolkit is the result of transformative community organizing by brave immigrants and families who refused to resign themselves to deportation. I hope the lessons learned during the #ReleaseMN8 campaign and distilled in this Toolkit demonstrate that liberation is possible even under the Trump Administration, when communities organize, defend themselves, and work in collaboration with dedicated lawyering.\u201d\nLinus Chan, with the University of Minnesota James H. Binger Center of New Americans, said \u201cI was lucky enough to witness up close the incredible work and advocacy of #ReleaseMN8. Their work in advocating and protecting their families provides a unique opportunity to not just provide an example of what is possible, but also to give concrete tips and tools from the people who have lived through the crises they seek to prevent. Their work is inspiring, but perhaps more importantly, their work can lead to concrete change.\u201d\n\u201cThe #ReleaseMN8 campaign inspired many of us to be courageous, to hope, and to be bolder in our advocacy for legislative solutions to laws that fail to recognize the resilience, humanity, and restoration to which human beings are capable,\u201d said Quyen Dinh, executive director of SEARAC. \u201cWe are proud to have worked with the campaign and our other partners to offer a new resource that will hopefully inspire families to mobilize and fight for immigrant justice.\nTake Action \u2013 Sign this public statement denouncing unjust deportations in the Southeast Asian American community!\n1.

He said the company, which is assessed at the Large Taxpayers\u2019 Unit in Bangalore, had the option of challenging the order before appellate authorities.\nAn IBM spokesperson said in an email: \u201cFundamental to IBM\u2019s culture and business model is that we act with integrity wherever we do business. We have demonstrated our commitment to integrity since we began operations in India. IBM has taken this tax dispute for judicial recourse.\u201d\nThe I-T Department had issued the notice after a detailed investigation, during which the department supposedly found that IBM India under-reported its income to evade tax under the export promotion scheme of the Software Technology Parks of India (STPI).\nInformation technology units in STPI zones enjoy 100 per cent tax exemption on income generated from software exports as defined in the Income Tax Act. These also enjoy a tax holiday under section 10AA of the I-T Act if the units are in a SEZ.\nAccording to a July 2012 Fitch report, IBM India had reported revenues of Rs 15,413 crore with a net profit of Rs 1,290 crore in FY11. According to industry estimates, the company might have crossed the Rs 16,000-crore (around $2.5-billion) mark. The company is one of the largest employers in the country, with its headcount expected to have crossed 120,000.\nThe fresh tax demand comes at a time when Infosys has agreed to pay $34 million (Rs 210 crore) for a civil settlement of visa misuse-related investigations in the US. Industry experts said this might pave the way for other Indian IT firms to come under the scanner of US authorities over usage of business visas.\nIBM has been involved in tax tussles with the government since 2011, when the authorities had sought Rs 1,090 crore as tax obligation for FY09, as IBM India had failed to keep separate books of accounts for income earned from STPI zones and special economic zones. While the company had obtained a stay on the demand from the I-T appellate tribunal, the I-T department had challenged the order in the Karnataka High Court in January. The court had allowed the government agency to\ncollect the amount from IBM India.\nIT units located in STPI zones enjoys 100% tax exemption on income generated from software exports as defined in section 10A and 10B of the Income Tax Act 1961. They also enjoy tax holiday under section 10AA of the I-T Act if they are located in a SEZ.\nApart from using India as a base for its global services delivery, India is also a huge market for the New York-headquartered company. According to a Fitch report issued in July 2012, IBM India had reported revenues to the tune of Rs 15,413 crore with a net profit of Rs 1290 crore in FY11. According to industry estimates, the company may have crossed Rs 16,000 crore (around $2.5 billion). Besides, the company is also one of the largest employers in the country with its\nheadcount expected to have crossed 120,000. In India, IBM\u2019s operations include four broad segments including global business services, systems & technology group, software group and global technology services.",

        "raw_content": "Teamster Pilots At Kalitta Air Reach Negotiations Impasse\nTOPICS:kalitta air\nCr\u00e9dit :kalitta air pilots\nAfter more than five years of negotiations for a new labor agreement with Kalitta Air, LLC, the cargo airline based in Ypsilanti, Michigan, the union representing its pilots and flight engineers informed the National Mediation Board (NMB) that further mediation efforts would be fruitless and counterproductive.\nKalitta Air operates a fleet of Boeing 747 aircraft in support of the global network of DHL Express, a division of the German logistics company, Deutsche Post DHL and other customers. Crew members, represented by the Airline Professionals Association (APA) Teamsters Local 1224, are preparing for a strike.\nIn a letter to the NMB last week, the Teamsters requested that the agency make a so-called proffer of arbitration to the union and Kalitta Air. Under the Railway Labor Act, if the agency proffers arbitration and both parties accept it, then all disputed contract terms are submitted to binding arbitration for resolution. If either party rejects the proffer, then the NMB must place the parties in a 30-day cooling off period. During the cooling off period, the NMB typically engages in intensive mediation efforts in a final attempt to avoid a work stoppage. Absent intervention by the president of the United States, a union is free to strike at the end of the cooling off period.\n\u201cWe have reached an impasse in negotiations,\u201d said Scott Nelson, the elected chairman of the APA Teamsters Local 1224 Kalitta Air Executive Council. \u201cThe union has made it clear that we have compromised as far as we can to reach an agreement and that our last proposal was, in fact, final. Yet, Kalitta Air has remained inflexible in its position.\u201d\nOn May 12, negotiators representing the union and the company met with a federal mediator in St. Louis. The Teamsters offered a compromise proposal to resolve all outstanding issues. After receiving the proposal, Kalitta Air\u2019s management team left the negotiations site without responding to the union\u2019s proposal or the courtesy of notifying union negotiators that they were returning to Michigan rather than returning to the negotiating session.\n\u201cTheir actions speak volumes as to why we have been unable to reach an agreement on an amended contract in more than five years of negotiations,\u201d Nelson said. \u201cIt is clear that they are intentionally trying to delay reaching a contract.\u201d\nIn December, 97 percent of the Kalitta pilots and flight engineers voted to authorize the union to call a strike. According to a recent survey, nearly 90 percent of Kalitta Air pilots would not recommend the airline to other pilots as a good place to build a career.\nIn May, the pilots overwhelmingly passed a resolution of \u201cno confidence\u201d in management, which stated: \u201cThe management of Kalitta Air, by and through their poor judgment, bad labor relations decisions, disrespect for union representatives and contempt for line pilots, has tarnished the good reputation of Kalitta Air.\u201d The resolution also accused management of \u201cundermining the ability of Kalitta Air to attract and retain quality pilots in an increasingly tight labor market.\u201d\n\u201cThe pilots and flight engineers are fed up,\u201d said Daniel C. Wells, President of Teamsters Local 1224. \u201cWe have long believed that Kalitta Air\u2019s management team would rather provoke a strike than resolve differences at the bargaining table, regardless of the impact it would have on families and customers. By all appearances, our suspicions are being confirmed.\u201d\nFounded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.

We then fill them with your choice of great tasting, Reverse Osmosis Water, Natural Glacial Spring Water, or Sparkling Water.\nOnce filled & capped, we apply your label or ours, package the bottles, and now they are ready to be enjoyed by all!\nTo manufacture our bottles, we use plastic resin (above left) along with recycled plastics and load them into our Pre-Form Injection Molding Machine. The Injection Molding Machine heats the plastic and molds it into the Pre-Forms (above center). We allow a day's time for the Pre-Form plastic to cool & cure prior to placing them into our production line. Once the Pre-Forms are in the production line, they are taken by an automated machine to the first stage which is the Bottle Blowing Machine. The molds are heated, given a quick blast of high pressure air is blown into the Pre-Form, which then fills the space of the specific mold we have set up for the size and style of bottle we need to make. The newly formed bottle is quickly cooled, then sent into our Rinsing, Filling, & Capping station. The filling process is confined to a closed area and there is no human contact with the water. The bottle has now been rinsed and filled with the drinking water of choice, and capped to form a seal prior to coming in contact with an employee. From here we add the label, a best before date is printed onto the bottle and finally the bottles are packaged. They are now ready to be shipped out for our customers to enjoy!\nReverse Osmosis is a process used for water purification in which dissolved inorganic solids (such as salts) are removed from the water. This is accomplished by household water pressure pushing the tap water through a semi permeable membrane. The membrane (which is about as thick as cellophane or plastic food wrap) allows only the water to pass through, not the impurities or contaminates. These impurities and contaminates are then flushed down the drain. The purified water is what you get to enjoy each time you drink All 4 Water Reverse Osmosis Water.\nAdvantages of Reverse Osmosis\nImproves taste, odor and appearance.\nHighly effective purification process. Will remove the pollutants listed below and more!\nConsumes no energy\nFlushes away pollutants, does not collect them\nLow production cost - gives you water of a guaranteed quality for pennies per gallon\nImpurities that can be removed using Reverse Osmosis\nBacteria, pyrogens, viruses, pesticides, hydrocarbons, radioactive contaminants, turbidity, colloidal matter, chlorine, detergents, industrial wastes, asbestos, dissolved solids, sodium, calcium, magnesium, sulfates, cadmium, fluoride.",

Does this apply to the website you have on your screen? Good. If you\u2019re lost, leave the website. No need to continue.\nIs the website attractive? Does it make you think: \"I like this idea?\u201d You probably found a good website. Most of the websites today are a copy of a copy of a website, so when you find a website with a fresh design concept, give it an extra point.\nThis is the space which is NOT filled with images and text. When a website is completely covered with content, even into the tiniest corners, it is barely legible. The use of more \"white space\" drastically increases clarity.\nAs already mentioned above, a clear navigation system has to answer two questions instantly: 'Where am I?' and 'Where can I go from here?'. If you get this information at a glance, the navigation is great.\nThis is an area where inexperienced web designers make the most mistakes. Typography should be used to transport content to the reader. The way type is chosen (serif and sans serif) size and appearance, line length, line spacing, and kerning increases or decreases legibility. It is not about how many kinds of type in crammed in the smallest \u2248available space, but about you, the reader. Less is more.\nHow are the web pages organized? Are they organized at all? When text and images are aligned in a way that the overall impression translates into clarity, harmony, and comfort, the website gets credits. A well organized website has an invisible grid underneath it. If content is placed wildly all over the page, the designer probably had no idea where he was going with the design and now neither does the visitor.\nThere is a science called Colorimetry that dictates the rules used for color theory in the graphic design industry. Despite such theory and science, it all comes down to a simple statement: there are colors that fit and others that don't. Colors in web design should be used to emphasize or to support content. When the colors distract the visitor, the design has failed.\nIs the overall visual impression of the website the same from page one to page \"end?\" Or does the design change drastically? Are text and images displayed differently? The design concept of a website mimics that of a book: it has to be consistent from the first to the last page.\nAll browsers are different, and\u2014sorry, it\u2019s true\u2014they all allow different rules and code in websites. So sometimes websites look good in Firefox but look terrible, or won\u2019t even show up, in Internet Explorer. Professional web designers know this and only use code that will be interpreted in the very same way in all browsers. Check a website in all browsers to see how it performs.\nIf you can make yourself a cup of tea while you\u2019re waiting for a website to open completely in your browser, there is something amiss. Either you have an extremely slow Internet connection or the website is way \"too heavy\". Even today, with super high speed Internet, a website should be built light and fast. With today's technology, it is possible to present even the largest images crisp and clear with almost no remarkable problems with file size and website loading times. If you practice, you can analyze a website quickly by following the 10 points you read above. Practice and sharpen your analytical skills and have fun.",

The investment is expected to create 105 new jobs over five years in Calhoun County.\n\u201cWe are looking forward to expanding our operations in South Carolina. It\u2019s an exciting time as we prepare to double the size of our operations with this investment in Calhoun County. With an exceptional workforce and support from both local and state governments, the Palmetto State has proven to be the perfect place to grow our business,\u201d The Fitts Company CEO Steve Fitts, Sr.\nFounded in 1998 in the Midlands, the Fitts Company offers a wide range of products including exterior and interior signage, surrounds, buildings and canopies for automated teller machines, modular bank interiors, motor home coaches and other specialty items. The new Calhoun County facility will be located in the I-26 Industrial Park in Gaston, South Carolina. Located on 17-acres of land, the 70,000-square-foot office and manufacturing facility is more than double the size of the company\u2019s existing space in Lexington, South Carolina. and will allow it to meet growing demand for its products.\nConstruction of the facility expansion is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2016. Initial hiring for engineers/designers, installers, project managers and millwork journeymen will begin in February 2015 with the other positions being filled as sales dictate.\nAs an incentive, Coordinating Council for Economic Development has approved job development credits related to the project. \u201cWe are proud of every business that decides to locate or expand in South Carolina, but it\u2019s a real reason to celebrate when we see one of our local, existing companies succeed and choose to grow here. The Fitts Company\u2019s $4.2 million investment and the 105 new jobs they are creating is great news for the company, the local community and South Carolina as a whole,\u201d said Governor Nikki Haley.\n\u201cThis $4 million investment and the 105 new jobs it brings are another sign that our County is a fertile field of growth and development in the Midlands. Our low taxes, business-friendly environment and central proximity to the Port and the major metropolitan markets in South Carolina make us a prime location for future investments, \u201c Calhoun County Council Chairman David Summers explained.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cIn every department science needs an ideal value, a power which creates values, and in whose service it can believe in itself.\u201d\n-Nietzsche, The Genealogy of Morals\nIt is tempting to look at specific, individual professional and research practices as examples of conflicts of interest. It feels good to locate \u201cbad actors\u201d and to find the \u201csource\u201d of our problems, someone to blame for the corruption. In many regards, we are experiencing a cultural moment of blame assignment and finger-pointing. In the age of Trump and Harvey Weinstein, there is no doubt plenty of blame to go around. In the architecture world, we may, for example, cite Enron\u2019s 2002 sponsorship of the Guggenheim\u2019s retrospective of Frank Gehry\u2019s work, as Thomas Frank does in \u201cRocking for the Clampdown;\u201d1 the 1998 Art of Motorcycle show at the Guggenheim, which epitomizes the museum\u2019s strategy of \u201csoliciting corporations\u2014like BMW, Giorgio Armani, or Hugo Boss\u2014to sponsor \u2018shows\u2019 of their own products, turning museums into boutiques,\u201d as Michael Sorkin puts it in \u201cBrand Aid;\u201d2 or the work that Eero Saarinen did for General Motors, Bell Labs, and IBM, as Reinhold Martin explores in The Organizational Complex;3 or the design research and exhibition work that Charles and Ray Eames conducted during the height of the Cold War\u2014including their propaganda film Glimpses of the USA for the 1959 American National Exhibition\u2014and their work for companies like IBM, Boeing, Westinghouse, etc. From a critical viewpoint, these \u201cbad actors\u201d stand out and are, of course, worthy of criticism. Yet in all of these cases (architectural and non-architectural), if the goal is merely to critique and condemn individuals, we are liable to overlook\u2014or even implicitly justify\u2014the systemic and structural forms of corruption within our institutions. The individualizing blame game\u2014as important as it is\u2014fails to furnish a commentary on the degree to which the majority of practices are situated within a biased and predefined field of possibilities that structure the coordinates of common sense and ethical standards in the service of a narrow set of interests. In the architectural world, this field of possibilities\u2014which I call \u201cprofessionalism\u201d\u2014has a highly political history that tends to be ignored by those who wish to imagine the discipline as being neutral and objectively rational. Yet, as this article intends to show, professionalism was originally posed as a political means of preserving ruling class power against political contestation\u2014a mission that was never neutral or objective.\nAt the end of the nineteenth century, after a period of unplanned, relatively unrestrained and accelerating urbanization and population growth in the United States, a number of reform organizations began to problematize the city as a primary site of political and social intervention\u2014one that professionalized experts would be summoned to bring under control. As a political strategy, professionalism was ineffective until it established itself on the \u201cneutral\u201d terrain of scientific discourse, which depoliticized\u2014in the public eye\u2014professionalism\u2019s inherently political objectives and allowed it to become the administrative basis of the majority of sanctioned human effort. This was accomplished partially by an organization called the National Municipal League, who, alongside other reform organizations, gave rise to a regime of experts whose activities were ostensibly above political contestation. It was on the terrain of \u201ctruth\u201d that the reformers of the League\u2014interested in stability of the social order\u2014waged a struggle for power and influence. Particularly between the 1880s and 1930s, reformers discursively developed the \u201cscientific\u201d basis upon which experts from various incipient professions would maintain order and ensure the reproduction of a capitalist economy.4 Within this discursive context arose the professions of urban planning, architecture, and design, alongside the disciplines of economics, political science, psychology, and sociology\u2014disciplines that claimed to possess truths about humanity and civilization, while downplaying the asymmetrical and motivated political agency that such knowledge was intended to generate. Strategically, this occurred through the suspension of political questions of \u201cwhy?\u2019 in favor of specific and narrow technical matters of \u201chow?,\u201d in both academic and professional discourses.\nIn the work of the League and other organizations, the so-called \u201cProgressive Era\u201d witnessed the rise of \u201cspecific intellectual,\u201d or academic experts, steeped in the new disciplines, operating within a larger, unquestioned \u201cregime of truth.\u201d5 This regime regulated \u201cthe types of discourse which it accepts and makes function as true; the mechanisms and instances which enable one to distinguish true and false statements, the means by which each is sanctioned; the techniques and procedures accorded value in the acquisition of truth; the status of those who are charged with saying what counts as true,\u201d as Foucault put the matter.6 The division of expertise among \u201cspecific intellectual\u201d professional problem solvers increasingly trained in technical skills was mobilized and vetted by professional organizations and associations, whose missions were to uphold the standards and \u201cbest practices\u201d of the professional order\u2014situated in a narrowly-serving yet widely-pervasive regime of truth that has generally gone unquestioned. If we are going to investigate the conflicting interests at play in the contemporary practice of architecture, perhaps this is a good place to start.\nFounded in 1894, the National Municpal League set out to tame the urban conurbations in the United States, which had aggregated largely without centralized planning, and were plagued by fractured social classes scrambling for power. As cities experienced political gridlock, to the detriment of the elite and monied interests, members of the League turned to the early political science writings of Frank P. Prichard and Woodrow Wilson, who both sought to establish \u201cobjective,\u201d expert-driven administration as an unquestionable force for reform.7 Prichard argued that \u201cscientific knowledge, skilled labor, systematic organization are all necessary for the conduct of the various municipal departments,\u201d8 while Wilson\u2014the only US president with a PhD\u2014argued in an 1887 essay that leaders should seek effective management of public opinion in order to avoid the disruption of administrative power. \u201cThe problem,\u201d he stated, \u201cis to make public opinion efficient without suffering it to be meddlesome\u2026Let administrative study find the best means for giving public criticism this control and for shutting it out from all other interference.\u201d9 In order to accomplish this, Wilson proposed separating the administrative and legislative functions of government, so that governmental tasks such as the planning of streets and utilities, the enforcement of laws and regulations, and, increasingly, the design and erection of infrastructures, the drafting (and enforcement) of zoning and building codes would persist in spite of regime changes and fluctuations in public opinion.\nConsistent with Wilson\u2019s musings, the League argued for such a separation of the expert-driven administrative branches of government from politically-contentious legislative politics. \u201cIf we hope to use experts in our cities,\u201d the League stressed in a 1916 Model City Charter\u2014a version of which would eventually be adopted into law in most municipalities\u2014\u201cthey must not hold elective offices, so that their positions must be independent of political change.\u201d10 Those entrusted to run municipal administration\u2014the bourgeoning class of professional planners, enforcers, and regulators\u2014ought not be considered politicians.\nThe League was part of a larger movement, in turn-of-the-century United States, to reform municipal government. The mid-to-late 1800s witnessed a massive growth in factional party politics in the US. Especially \u201cduring the 1860s and 1870s existing \u2018machines\u2019 within the parties had centralized bits of power scattered among the numerous precincts and wards of cities,\u201d the historian Martin Schiesl writes in his landmark study of municipal organization. \u201cBy the eighties these organizations were attempting to tighten their grip on urban administration.\u201d11 These political machines capitalized on the broadening political and economic rifts that were emerging in the urbanization of America, as inequality became widespread and the population fractured into distinct social classes with specific interests that were often antagonistic. Beholden to specific interests, political parties would \u201cdistribute public posts and social services to various groups in urban society,\u201d and such a structure was decentralizing political power over urban administration.12 Disturbed by this seeming threat to upper and middle-class hegemony over city government, political reformers \u201cdenounced the party system which permitted these lower-class people to acquire such power\u201d on the one hand,13 but also the consolidation of power in the hands of certain monopolistic business interests on the other\u2014referred to as \u201cboss politics\u201d\u2014which possessed, as far as the progressive reformers were concerned, too narrow of a conception of their own interests to rule effectively. Most municipal governments at that time operated under a \u201cmayor-council plan\u201d (also called the \u201cward system\u201d), in which an elected mayor would work with council members who had been elected by individual districts. Because these council members represented the constituents in their particular districts, and districts often had firm political allegiances and ethnic and class compositions, the result was a highly antagonistic council in which very little could be agreed upon.14\nAgainst this highly competitive form of government, reformers first proposed the commission form of government, and then, some time later, the commission-manager form of government, which tended to replace the purely commission-based governments as well as the \u201ctraditional\u201d mayor-council form practiced in many cities. These changes came at the hands of several organizations, and a handful of notable reformers. Richard S. Childs\u2014one of the intellectual influences of the National Municipal League\u2014was at the forefront of such reforms. As one of the key proponents of separating the legislative from administrative functions of government, Childs, with the support of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, founded the National Short Ballot Organization, which sought to limit the number of elected officials and install a commission-manager governance structure in cities. As the organization put it in their 1913 pamphlet, \u201cnon-political executive functions would be delegated to an official appointed by the Commission to serve during their pleasure, to be known as the \u2018City Manager.\u2019\u201d15 Consistent with Wilson\u2019s early political writings, this \u201cshort ballot\u201d form of democratic involvement in municipal governance sought to place the supposedly \u201cnon-political\u201d tasks of municipal administration into the hands of a professional executive, who would efficiently delegate the various needs of the municipality to other experts.\nWhile advocates of the commission-manager model of government endorsed this structure under the guise of \u201cefficiency,\u201d business associations and chambers of commerce were particularly eager to endorse the plan as an effective means of ensuring their own interests would be served. What these advocates wanted was, according to Schiesl,\nthe replacement of the ward system of public affairs with a centralized administration that would organize municipal services according to the business view of what was good for the community. City manager government promised all of this. Businessmen could then reduce the influence of lower-class groups in city government and advance their own notions of public policy.16\nAnother historian put it this way: \u201cbusiness elites almost invariably favored and laboring classes usually opposed the adoption of the commission,\u201d and while support and opposition for this and the commission-manager form of municipal government was not black and white, the heavy leaning of these positions reveals whose interests the commission-appointed manager structure served.17 While many of its advocates came from the business world, a variety of \u201cpolitical reformers outside of business\u201d were involved in advocacy as well, perhaps unaware of the fact that such a mode of government contributed \u201cto the erosion of the structural bases of popular democracy and the power of lower-class elements which lay behind it.\u201d18\nIn order to succeed in the placement of expert administrators at the helms of municipal governments, reformers needed to formulate a new foundation upon which to justify the authority of these experts. Whereas in the \u201cward\u201d system, authority was rooted in the popularity or political affiliation of the administrator, reformers increasingly turned to technical expertise and \u201cscience\u201d to legitimize the administrator\u2019s authority. Dr. A.L. Lowell, one of the authors of the New Municipal Program, argued that specialized experts were more knowledgeable and better equipped to solve administrative problems than the average citizen; that, therefore, \u201cthe influence of the permanent officials is not due to any political authority. It is simply that which expert knowledge, when given a fair chance, will properly command and it makes for efficiency, honesty, and progress in civic welfare.\u201d19 Lowell continued, \u201cAbove all he must take no part in politics, for politics naturally involves a not infrequent change of personnel which is quite inconsistent with permanence of tenure.\u201d20 Scientific knowledge would serve as the justification for the properly political policies of municipal governance, shielding administration from controversy.\nEarlier attempts to reform municipal governments had been heavily mired in controversy. The first Model City Charter of 1901 overtly stated its intentions to fairly mediate contentious issues, yet in the process failed to do so.21 The proposal failed because it did not depoliticize the issues at hand, and therefore could not build broad-based support for reforms. Commenting on this failure in 1908, the director of the League, Clinton Rogers Woodruff, stated the need for more unified efforts within the organization, whose \u201cfirst object according to its declaration of principles has been to multiply the numbers, harmonize the methods, and combine the forces of all who realize that it is only by united action and organization that good citizens can secure the adoption of good laws and the selection of men of trained ability and proved integrity for all municipal positions.\u201d22 Such \u201cunited action and organization,\u201d resulting from a \u201charmonization of methods,\u201d could only proceed if the debate about municipal affairs could effectively shift to one perceived as less controversial\u2014both to reformers and to the public.\nOne of the crucial ways in which A New Municipal Program differed from the failed first Municipal Program was in its introduction of city planning into the executive functions of administrative government. Cities, according to the new program, should be planned by experts, \u201chaving at their command, knowledge of the principles and practice of so controlling the physical manifestations of city growth as to meet the needs of the citizens and a proper ideal for the city as a whole.\u201d23 The 1920 essay \u201cThe Law of the City Plan,\u201d written by Frank B. Williams as a supplement to the National Municipal Review, made the case for city planning as an integrated department within the municipal government, stating that\na city is a huge agglomeration of social and economic interests, under many independent heads, each seeking, through the city government, its expression in the physical life of the locality. The aim of that city government should be to harmonize these interests in the unity of the locality, as the only method of giving the greatest expression to each of these interests that is compatible with the fullest expression of the interests of all.24\nYet despite its claims to objectivity, the \u201charmonizing\u201d of city planning was anything but neutral. Professionalized city planning was increasingly preoccupied with the commercial value of urban reorganization, and plans like the landmark Plan of Chicago (1909)\u2014commissioned by the Chicago Commercial Club\u2014were justified on the basis that they would eliminate circulation costs, make the city more commercially efficient, and improve commerce generally.25 \u201cHarmonization\u201d\u2014a staple term among the municipal reformers\u2014was largely concerned with commercial efficiency and pacification, rather than an advocacy of everyone\u2019s interests.26\nThe architect was demoted in the League\u2019s revised vision of city planning. M.N. Baker\u2014an engineer and author of a section of A New Municipal Program dedicated to city planning\u2014lamented that historically, most city planning was conducted by architects, who emphasized \u201cembellishment, adornment, and beautification, rather than fundamental knowledge of the city plan and its elements.\u201d The result was a \u201ccity as a whole that has not harmonized the elements\u201d that composed it\u2014a harmony that was imperative for industrial and commercial advancement. Architects\u2014in one of many historical assaults on their agency\u2014like the rest of the public, would need to follow, rather than lead. Under the proposed commission-manager plan, Baker explained, the commission would act as \u201ca policy-determining body,\u201d with the commissioners bringing \u201ctrained administrative and technical men to the front in control of executive affairs.\u201d\nThe city planning board would be appointed, rather than elected, because, \u201cas matters stand to-day, city planning in the United States is too young, too much of an art in the formative period, too little a science, too much a series of elements yet to be worked into a harmonious whole\u2026to be entrusted wholly to a political body, subject to sudden changes in membership and burdened with a thousand complex problems.\u201d27 This could be accomplished in a variety of different ways, but ultimately it would be imperative, according to the League, that city planning be removed from political contestation and regime change.\nThe League was incredibly successful at installing city planning commissions in local governments. After the release of A New Municipal Program in 1916, municipal reform experts\u2014including a new generation of professional planners\u2014were rapidly being ushered into municipal governments around the country, because they had firmly established themselves as the arbiters of a new, \u201cscientific\u201d regime of truth. By 1920 there were \u201chundreds of official planning commissions in the United States\u201d\u2014a development that had its origins in the widespread adoption of city charters based on the League\u2019s model legislation.28\nIn 1917\u2014one year after the publication of A New Municipal Program\u2014the American Institute of Architects (AIA), perhaps in response to criticisms that the discipline of architecture was \u201can art rather than a science,\u201d released the Handbook of Architectural Practice, which offered a lengthy guide to the business and ethical dimensions of the professionalized practice of architecture. Like expert planners, the AIA believed that the architect should establish himself on the terrain of scientific neutrality, employing \u201cthe applied sciences necessary to sound and economic building, sciences that have generated and that attempt to satisfy many of the exacting and complex demands of modern life.\u201d It was precisely in so doing that the architect would give \u201cto his art the status of a profession.\u201d29 Architecture was not to be a political craft. The Handbook stipulated that the architect\u2019s \u201cadvice must be absolutely disinterested;\u201d he \u201cmust act with entire impartiality,\u201d for \u201che is engaged in a profession which carries with it grave responsibility to the public.\u201d30 This duty would place the architect \u201cin a professional rather than a commercial relation to contractors, to his assistants, to his fellow architects, and to the public\u201d\u2014a professionalism whose \u201cswift and proper execution depends in no small part on the Architect\u2019s ability as an administrator.\u201d This responsibility would place him on a parallel path with the expert administrators who were being ushered into municipal governments at the same moment.31\nAccording to the AIA, this new architectural administrator was to have a direct relationship with the administrators in municipal governments\u2014a relationship that the AIA would articulate explicitly. The Handbook explained that the architect was expected to fulfill specific duties \u201cto the public and to building authorities\u201d\u2014referring specifically to city planning commissioners\u2014whose laws and regulations should be understood and followed. This would be a minimum alignment with the not-so-neutral commercial and state interests already being literally cemented into place by planners and civil engineers, whose technical training was being instrumentalized in the development of a particular version of urbanity under the guise of professional neutrality. In this battle for architectural agency, the Handbook stated that architects should \u201cmaintain a high standard of practice and conduct on the part of its members as a safeguard of the important financial, technical, and esthetic interests entrusted to them.\u201d32 In the world of competing instrumentalized scientific and technical proficiencies, there was no room for \u201carts\u201d that asked questions of \u201cwhy?\u201d or \u201cfor whom?\u201d If the discipline of architecture was going to remain relevant in the process of designing and building cities, it would have to take a back seat to planning and governmental regulation, serving and not questioning the values that animated these.\nWhile the architect was to internalize and perform the notion of their own neutrality, the AIA insisted that they should also actively advance the causes that would increase their power and influence as a profession. Not only should an architect \u201cbe mindful of the public welfare,\u201d the Handbook explained, but he should also \u201cparticipate in those movements for public betterment in which his special training and experience qualify him to act.\u201d33 In this sense, architecture as a professional practice was invested in a reformist project, whose fate and future was to ensure the discipline\u2019s reproduction34 (as well as ensuring capitalist reproduction)\u2014an investment that, despite diminishing returns, persists today.35\nPeter Marcuse, the critical planner, has observed these same techniques of power in operation today among advocates of sustainable urban development (though it could certainly be argued that these techniques are operative in all of the myriad professional organizations and academic disciplines that condition professionals to a specific set of standards and instill certain \u201cexpert\u201d knowledges). These techniques operate through what Marcuse calls a \u201cone-dimensional language of standard analysis,\u201d which creates and embellishes a certain type of reality, just as the reform discourse of the League problematized certain issues and ignored others.36 According to Marcuse, this depoliticizing language\u2014language that has \u201cunintended and often subliminal meaning\u201d\u2014is being deployed more and more in urban planning.37 And for Marcuse, these unintended meanings are \u201cmore harmful than if they were intended and overt.\u201d38 He is not concerned with an Orwellian critique of overtly political speech, with its heavy use of euphemisms and intentional vagueness\u2014the language of political propaganda (the corollary, for our purpose, is the clearly corrupted professional practice, with its obvious endorsement of corporate or state interests). Instead, he says, \u201cthe problem raised here is when words and language is used in all sincerity, innocently, but with implications not intended by its user but effectively having important political implications supporting the legitimacy of the status quo.\u201d39 This \u201cone-dimensional language\u201d operates through a set of techniques that Marcuse lists, among them being the following:\nThe tyranny of facts: giving exclusive consideration to the \u201cfacts,\u201d to hard data, priority for the quantifiable that can be empirically demonstrated claiming objectivity for the findings and presentations of research.\nHomogenization of entities: canceling out the internal variations and diversities that are contained with a single term, such as city or public.\nHarmonization, the denial of conflict, the unspoken assumption of unity of interests, of a single ultimate public interest, of an achievable harmony of interests and consensus among conflicting forces, groups, concerns, around concepts such as \u201csustainable,\u201d \u201chealthy market,\u201d \u201cmobility,\u201d \u201cchoice.\u201d 40\nThis \u201cone-dimensional language has a clear political impact,\u201d Marcuse concludes. \u201cIt supports the status quo, implicitly suggesting that, if there are difficulties, they are subject to correction within existing structures and with existing means.\u201d This one-dimensional language enters into our everyday vocabulary, he explains, and yet \u201cthey have become depoliticized not by a conspiracy of those whose interests they serve, but rather by their quiet acceptance in established discourse.\u201d41\nThe early political scientists, whose work influenced the League\u2019s strategy, like many reformers, sought to preserve upper class privileges with their endorsements of depoliticized administrative governance. Woodrow Wilson, for example, stated outright that he admired the Napoleonic form of government in France, and especially Baron Haussmann\u2019s manipulations of Paris, because these authoritarian structures maintained political order. Reflecting on the French regime with little concealment of his admiration for its accomplishments, Wilson argued that the leaders there, engaging in administrative forms of governance, not only \u201cmade themselves too efficient to be dispensed with,\u201d but they also succeeded in becoming \u201ctoo smoothly operative to be noticed, too enlightened to be inconsiderately questioned, too benevolent to be suspected, too powerful to be coped with.\u201d42 Wilson was not critical of this invisible, indispensable administrative power. He wanted to \u201cAmericanize\u201d it\u2014to \u201cget the bureaucratic fever out of its veins; so that it could inhale much free American air.\u201d43 The \u201cscience\u201d of municipal governance was precisely such an Americanization\u2014using unquestionable experts to circumvent public interference.\nThe result of the reformist \u201cadministrative developments\u201d that Wilson and others helped to inspire was an institutionalization of various professional roles into the government, and a \u201cpermanency of tenure\u201d for administrative control, alongside the spread of professional organizations and academic departments charged with producing and expanding the influence of increasingly technical and ostensibly objective knowledges. The following decades witnessed a massive diffusion of technical expertise, erected in the pursuit of \u201chow-oriented\u201d questions, with relatively little regard for \u201cwhy-oriented\u201d questions. The National Municipal League helped to institutionalize a \u201cregime of truth\u201d through the suspension of socio-political matters and the embrace of technical research.\nIn this sense, and following Foucault, I believe it would be a mistake to object to certain instances of professional practice on the basis that their alignment with obvious interests compromise their truth value. Instead, we should contest the very regimes of truth upon which the reigning conceptions of \u201ccommon sense\u201d and \u201cbest practices\u201d rely. Such a project would necessarily demand a recasting of the \u201cProgressive Era,\u201d which is typically remembered fondly as a period of objective fairness, expanded political liberty and civic efficiency, and rational social development\u2014the historical plinth upon which our society sits. It\u2019s important to imbue this memory with the recollection of the political technologies of control that were forged at that time, in the very institutions that are usually celebrated. \u201cThe \u2018Enlightenment\u2019, which discovered the liberties, also invented the disciplines,\u201d wrote Foucault.44 The Progressive Era, which was, in many ways, an extension of the Enlightenment, witnessed an adaptation of power that rendered control more effective and less costly, if also simultaneously less offensive and brutal. Top-down control, corresponding to ostentatious sovereignty\u2014those \u201ctraditional, ritual, costly, violent forms of power\u2026soon fell into disuse and were superseded by a subtle, calculated technology of subjection.\u201d45 The wide range of professions that came into being during this period, and which are still with us today, represent an historically new, and largely unquestioned apparatus of power, whose entire basis should be critically reexamined in the twenty-first century.\nThe effects of depoliticized, expert-administered programs of urban and architectural development can be seen in just about every American city, with their rampant inequality, their harsh lack of provisions for human needs (restrooms; places to rest; places to be quiet or intimate; spaces that inspire, delight, and excite, etc.), their capitulation to narrow and short-sighted profiteering, and their rigid governance by the dysfunctional (yet somehow unquestionable) dynamics of real estate. Expert administration is first and foremost the production of stable and knowable objects (territories, cities, economies, cultures, etc.)\u2014objects that are discursively co-constituted with the professional. Perhaps by historicizing professionalization\u2013and not just criticizing \u201cbad actors\u201d\u2013we can begin to reveal the fundamental contingency of spatial practice in general, in ways that open it up as a site of transformative political action.46\n1.

In an investigation of the efficiency sought by municipal reformers, Martin J. Schiesl, in The Politics of Efficiency, argues that, despite the fact that municipal reform advocated \u201cnonpartisanship,\u201d and a genuine interest in eliminating corruption from government, \u201cinvolved also a significant redistribution of political power in American cities. To the structural reformers [of the municipal reform movement] it meant equal access to formal power for middle and upper-class groups whom they felt were not being represented by machine government.\u201d Schiesl, The Politics of Efficiency, 5.\nInsofar as pacification was concerned, in the wake of the Bolshevik Revolution, the National Municipal League hosted a session at its 1918 annual conference addressing the Bolshevik threat\u2014one that its members posed municipal reform as a potential alternative to. \u201cFor the purposes of the session,\u201d Charles A Beard, the director of the New York Bureau of Municipal Research explained, \u201cBolshevikism (sic) was defined as a \u2018dangerous unrest\u2014a tendency to disregard the established political mechanism in efforts to secure results by unlawful short cuts\u2026A municipal government that is tied hand and foot with red tape and complex charter limitations in the hands of a tight political ring which capital can easily control gives considerable excuse for the kind of impatience that wants to kick the whole fabric of society into the discard.\u2019 The question to which the speakers were invited to direct their attention was \u2018What things should we do to set our house in order so as to make government so responsive, effective, and obedient that the shortest and easiest way to get social and economic progress will be by way of lawful and orderly governmental action.\u2019\u201d Charles A. Beard, \u201cIntroduction,\u201d in \u201cThe Bolshevik Session of the National Municipal League Annual Conference,\u201d National Municipal Review, vol. 7, no. 5, September 1918): 449\u2013450.\nThomas H. Reed, an academic of civics and the one-time city manager of San Jose, California, explained that \u201cwe must have a government which the average man in the community believes is responsive to his will\u2014a government everyone knows is on the level; and if we have got that, we don\u2019t need to worry very much about the Bolshevik thing.\u201d Thomas H.

Stefano Harney and Fred Moten, in The Undercommons, claim that \u201cpublic administration holds to the idea both in the lecture hall and the professional journal that its categories are knowable. The state, the economy, and civil society may change size or shape, labor may enter or exit, and ethical consideration may vary, but these objects are both positivistic and normative, standing in discrete, spatial arrangement each to the other. Professionalization begins by accepting these categories precisely so competence can be invoked, a competence that at the same time guards its own foundation.\u201d Stefano Harney and Fred Moten, The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning & Black Study (Brooklyn: Autonomedia, 2013), 36. ^\n35. Today, professional practice and the business administration of architectural practice is taught in most architecture schools.

The majority of these best practices, like the practices offered in the 1920s, have to do with business, financial, legal, and governmental matters\u2014a revealing reminder of the persistence of the professional structures set in place in the reformist developments of the Progressive Era. ^\n36.

In the interest of a strategic investment in the future, I would like to offer a small insight into possible futures for architecture. In a section of the AIA Handbook entitled \u201cOn Offering Services Gratuitously,\u201d the authors explained that \u201cthe seeking out of a possible client and the offering to him of professional services on approval and without compensation, unless warranted by personal or previous business relations, tends to lower the dignity and standing of the profession, and is to be condemned.\u201d See American Institute of Architects, \u201cA Circular of Advice Relative to Principles of Professional Practice and Canons of Ethics,\u201d A Handbook of Architectural Practice. In order for the profession of architecture to maintain itself as a profit-generating venture, it would need to maintain a hegemony over the value produced by architectural designers. In this sense, it was much like any other profession that seeks to monopolize a sector of the economy. Perhaps, in an era in which the performance of capital is paltry and vicissitudinous at best; an era that has witnessed a systematic divestment from the governmental structures that the reformers of the Progressive Era erected; an era that, no longer faced with the threat of Bolshevism, is content with leaving massive portions of the population outside of and superfluous to production; we should be looking for ways of producing and circulating value outside of monetized relations in emergent and self-valorizing economies that grow in proportion to capital\u2019s losses and failures. ^\nEric Wycoff Rogers is a writer, strategist, and designer. Eric\u2019s research focuses on American history\u2014specifically the history of social reform during the Progressive era, and the ways that reform organizations shaped everyday life, from municipal governments to urban layouts, the definition of home and domesticity, leisure, families, cultural constructions of sexuality/desire, financial infrastructures, and collectively-held aspirations.",

        "raw_content": "Vaccines help protect dogs against serious and potentially fatal contagious diseases. In the case of rabies, that risk extends not just to dogs but to you and any other mammals that may come in contact with the virus. Before vaccines it wasn\u2019t uncommon for distemper to wipe out entire kennels, sometimes more than once. When parvo first hit and there were no vaccines there was little people could do to prevent it and many dogs died. While there can be risks associated with vaccine use, adverse consequences are very rare. Abandoning vaccines because of this low risk is putting your dogs at the much greater risk for contracting a contagious disease.\nIf your dogs are staying healthy without vaccines it is probably as much because most the other dogs they come in contact with are vaccinated; if your dog is never exposed through contact with an infected dog or its excretions you can\u2019t really know if it has high natural immunity or not. Given the dire nature of the diseases for which we vaccinate, not doing so isn\u2019t worth the risk. The important thing with vaccines is to avoid over-use because it can interfere with proper immune function.\nRabies vaccination of dogs is generally governed by law. Modern vaccines will be effective if administered on a three year cycle after the dog has had a shot as a puppy and at a year. However, local law may dictate more frequent administration. For other vaccines, the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) recommends that most have a three-shot puppy series, an adult vaccine at one year and every three years thereafter. If the dog has not been vaccinated prior to 16 weeks, it should have two doses with a 3-4 week interval, and every three years thereafter, with the exception of parainfluenza for which one initial dose is adequate. Exceptions to these general rules are bordatella, leptospira. and Lyme, for which a two-dose puppy series is recommended with annual adult boosters. (Bordatella may be given every 6 months in high-risk areas.) Vaccines for rattlesnake bites and periodontal disease should be administered per the manufacturers\u2019 labels. Not recommended for use are: killed canine parvovirus, canine adenovirus-1, killed canine adenovirus-2, giardia, and coronavirus. AAHA considers parvovirus, distemper, adenovirus-2 (modified live), and rabies to be \u201ccore\u201d vaccines, necessary for all dogs in North America. If you live elsewhere there may be a different group of vaccines necessary to protect against diseases that occur in your region\u2019s environment.\nIf a dog has a compromised immune system, due to illness, parasite load, malnutrition, immune-suppressive medications, or stress its immune system may not be able to respond to a vaccine. In puppies the immune system must learn how to function; vaccine failure may occur simply because the puppy\u2019s immune system didn\u2019t know how to react properly (the reason multiple doses of some vaccines are given.)\nVaccine reactions are rarely due to the vaccine itself, but to other substances intended to maintain viability of the vaccine or extend the product for ease of administration. In puppies the immune system is learning to function and may occasionally prevent a proper immune response to the vaccine leading to an overreaction. Vaccine reactions in can occur for a wide variety of reasons: The dog was ill, medicated, under stress, or \u2013 in rare instances \u2013 has an inherently faulty immune system. If the dog previously had similar reactions to other things this might indicate some sort of immune system dysfunction but in that case the vaccine may have been coincidental to the reaction if the dog was exposed to whatever caused the prior episode again around the time of the vaccination.\nVeterinarian-diagnosed vaccine reactions were reported in 5% of the dogs in the ASHGI health survey but rabies was the only single type ofvaccine for which a significant number of responses were submitted. If your veterinarian confirms that an apparent reaction was caused by a vaccine, follow his/her advice on how to proceed in the future.",

        "raw_content": "Subject: Human Resource Management Topic: Assignment\n4000BC Concrete Pyramids:\nAt the city of Giza, a necropolis of ancient Memphis, and today part of Greater Cairo, Egypt.\nContrary to the common belief, only the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), not all three Great Pyramids, is on top of the list of Wonders. The monument was built by the Egyptian pharaoh Khufu of the Fourth Dynasty around the year 2560 BC to serve as a tomb when he dies. The tradition of pyramid building started in Ancient Egypt as a sophistication of the idea of a mastaba or \u201cplatform\u201d covering the royal tomb. Later, several stacked mastabas were used. Early pyramids, such as the Step Pyramid of King Zoser (Djoser) at Saqqara by the famous Egyptian architect, Imhotep, illustrate this connection.\nThe great pyramid is believed to have been built over a 20 year period. The site was first prepared, and blocks of stone were transported and placed. An outer casing (which disappeared over the years) was then used to smooth the surface. Although it is not known how the blocks were put in place, several theories have been proposed. One theory involves the construction of a straight or spiral ramp that was raised as the construction proceeded. This ramp, coated with mud and water, eased the displacement of the blocks which were pushed (or pulled) into place. A second theory suggests that the blocks were placed using long levers with a short angled foot.\nThroughout their history, the pyramids of Giza have stimulated human imagination. They were referred to as \u201cThe Granaries of Joseph\u201d and \u201cThe Mountains of Pharaoh\u201d. When Napoleon invaded Egypt in 1798, his pride was expressed through his famous quote: \u201cSoldats! Du haut de ces Pyramides, 40 si\u88eces nous contemplent\u201d. (Soldiers! From the top of these Pyramids, 40 centuries are looking at us)\nToday, the Great Pyramid is enclosed, together with the other pyramids and the Sphinx, in the touristic region of the Giza Plateau. Also in the area is the museum housing the mysterious Sun Boat, only discovered in 1954 near the south side of the pyramid. The boat is believed to have been used to carry the body of Khufu in his last journey on earth before being buried inside the pyramid. It may also serve him as a means of transportation in his afterlife journey according to Ancient Egyptian beliefs.\nOver four thousand years ago, modern man built one of the greatest construction marvels of all time, the great pyramids of Giza. The awesome technology to create these structures developed in a few hundred years and disappeared just as fast, never to be duplicated. By about 500 B.C., during Herodotus\u2019 visit to Egypt, the methods of construction were obscure, even to the Egyptian priests consulting their records[1][1]. Conventional wisdom states that the three great pyramids are made of stone blocks quarried, hauled over the Nile, and maneuvered up great ramps to their present positions. It is becoming clear, however, that the great pyramids are actually made of concrete. Even today with mounting evidence, people still cling to conventional ideas as to their construction.\nThe pyramids were constructed during the reigns of three pharaohs about 2500 BC. The great pyramid was built for a pharaoh named Khnumu-Khufu during his 20-year reign. The pharaoh ruled over an essentially agrarian society. This society was entirely dependent on the fall inundation (flood) of the Nile annually to fertilize the flood plain, on which they grew their crops. Various major construction tasks were undertaken only during these three months of the year, starting relatively small, reaching its zenith with the great pyramids, and dying away by about 500 BC. Although large constructions were undertaken, after the building of the great pyramids, none equaled them in magnitude and quality. The Egyptian priests told Herodotus that the great pyramid was completed during the reign of the pharaoh, 20 years.\nTo complete a pyramid within the lifetime of the reigning pharaoh was a monumental task. Masons designed the structure, selected and cleared the site, and laid out the orientation. As the site was being prepared, other groups of masons quarried stone blocks at twenty quarries throughout Egypt. These blocks were then hauled to the Nile, floated to the construction site, hauled up a ramp, and put in place. The pharaoh, to complete the pyramid being constructed, drafted one hundred thousand laborers, including slaves for labor, an impressive mental picture. For most people, thousands of labors and its associated stone theory are easy to conceptualize. A child\u2019s blocks can be used to mimic the operation on a small but deceptive scale.\nAt the same time as the pyramids were being constructed, another intriguing development occurred. Fine alabaster vases with delicate, narrow throats and other artifacts were created in the same meticulous precision as the casing stones. How could the Egyptians hollow out the bottom of the vases through the narrow throat without a highly advanced technology, which has disappeared in the mist of time? Little if any indication of their manufacture remains.\nThere is evidence, in the quarries, of incomplete stone blocks and stele (obelisks) in various stages of completion, from later eras, abandoned for one reason or another. Also, there are chisel marks left from the era when the pyramid blocks were being extracted from the quarries. The marks vary considerably from era to era as the tools used to quarry changed[2][5]. Clearly, the stone was removed from the quarry.\nVarious authors including Herodotus, talking to Egyptian priests thousands of years after the completion, spoke of machines for raising the blocks. It stands to reason, if you did not have a stone block, you would not have to raise it. Later construction by the Egyptians themselves, Greeks, Romans, the masons of medieval Europe, and including the masons of today used the same basic method of cutting the blocks at the quarries and hauling them into place. The blocks are rough-cut with tools on site, the rough ashlar (rough cut stone) is removed, finished, and it is hauled to the structure location and is installed, a simple enough procedure to understand.\nEach of these arguments support the concept that the blocks were; as is commonly thought; cut, hauled, floated, hauled, and placed. They are simple and straightforward, but there are certain problems with this theory.\nHerodotus says the great pyramid was completed in 20 years with 2,500,000 blocks, The construction infrastructure shrinks substantially, to a manageable size of about 1,400 people.\nWe have two theories with significantly different technologies and similar results. The conventional theory suggests a fantastic technology, which was lost as fast as it was developed and even with modern methods, many facts cannot be adequately explained or duplicated. The concrete theory simply explains all of the observations and allows the eclectic craftsmen to complete the job in the time allotted. As their raw materials were consumed, the workmen adapted and developed different technologies to carry on their tasks, the old practices disappeared, and their results became an enigma.\nEast Owainat is located in the southwestern part of Egypt\u2019s WesternDesert. The planned area to be cultivated amounts to 220 thousand feddans that depend on subterranean water available in the project area.\nThe Dream Comes True :\nThe visit of President Mubarak to East Owainat gave an impetus to remove obstacles that might hinder investment there. Thus the government has put its plan to change this part of the western desert into a green paradise where groups of engineers, technicians and workers have started working in the area for making it viable to plant all kinds of grains, fruits and vegetables.\nThe Project Objectives:\nStudies proved that the area of East Owainat holds ideal nature and environmental wealth for planting some kinds of fruits and vegetables in earlier seasons, as well as getting chemical-free exportable products for Europe.\nThe project contributes to creating a new urban community that accommodates about 100,000 people and provides 20,000 job opportunities in agriculture, agro-industries and animal breeding.\nDesert covers more than ninety percent of Egypt. The dessert called the Red Land supported only small settlements in wadis and oases. The Egyptians lived on the\nbanks of the River Nile or beside canals leading from it. This was Kemet or the Black Land, named after the rich silt on which the farmers grew their crops. Without thisfertility, there would have been no civilization in Egypt. Until the modern days the pattern of life in Egypt for the majority of people has depended on the exploitation of its agricultural resources. Today the increase of population, growth of cities and building of large industries is changing Egyptian lifestyles.\nThe River Gift\u2019s:\nAbout two thousand five hundred years ago, Herdotus, who was a visitor from Greece, called Egypt \u201cthe gift of the Nile\u201d. The Egyptian people sang special hymns to the river. The hymn below was written down during the period of time called the New Kingdom (which was from about 1570 to 1070 B.C.)\n\u201cHail to thee O Nile that\nissues from the earth\nand comes to keep Egypt alive!\nHe that waters the meadows\nwhich Ra created.\u201d\nTo make the best use from the flooding of the Nile, the people built irrigation channels to carry water to their fields. They even built dams to hold back the water to be used during droughts. Many things these people did sound very similar to some people now. In some ways it was the same things the Sumerian people did. Since the floods came at predictable times in Egypt farming was much easier. The Egyptian people needed less cooperation than the Sumerians to get their work done. As a result they did not develop cities until a much later time.\nBesides water, another very important gift of the Nile was the thick black mud which gets left behind during the flooding. This thick dark mud made the soil much richer and made the farmlands very productive.\nThe Nile gave the people other gifts too. Fish, geese, ducks and many other water birds that could be eaten made their homes in land of delta. A plant called papyrus which is a long, thin reed grew along the riverbanks. The Egyptians harvested papyrus and made lots of different things with it like: baskets, sandals, boats, and material to write on. The word paper that we use comes from the word papyrus.\nThe Egyptian people used the precious gifts of the Nile extremely wisely. Here in this land of fertile riverbanks and barren deserts, floods and drought, BlackLandRedLand these people somehow managed to build one of the most amazing civilizations in history.\nHammurabi was the ruler who chiefly established the greatness of Babylon, the world\u2019s first metropolis. Many relics of Hammurabi\u2019s reign (2123-2081 BC*) have been preserved, and today we can study this remarkable King . . . as a wise law-giver in his celebrated code. . . . . . [B]y far the most remarkable of the Hammurabi records is his code of laws, the earliest-known example of a ruler proclaiming publicly to his people an entire body of laws, arranged in orderly groups, so that all men might read and know what was required of them. The code was carved upon a black stone monument, eight feet high, and clearly intended to be reared in public view. This noted stone was found in the year 1901, not in Babylon, but in a city of the Persian mountains, to which some later conqueror must have carried it in triumph. It begins and ends with addresses to the gods. Even a law code was in those days regarded as a subject for prayer, though the prayers here are chiefly cursings of whoever shall neglect or destroy the law.\nThe code then regulates in clear and definite strokes the organization of society. The judge who blunders in a law case is to be expelled from his judgeship forever, and heavily fined. The witness who testifies falsely is to be slain. Indeed, all the heavier crimes are made punishable with death. Even if a man builds a house badly, and it falls and kills the owner, the builder is to be slain. If the owner\u2019s son was killed, then the builder\u2019s son is slain. We can see where the Hebrews learned their law of \u201can eye for an eye.\u201d These grim retaliatory punishments take no note of excuses or explanations, but only of the fact\u2013with one striking exception. An accused person was allowed to cast himself into \u201cthe river,\u201d the Euphrates. Apparently the art of swimming was unknown; for if the current bore him to the shore alive he was declared innocent, if he drowned he was guilty. So we learn that faith in the justice of the ruling gods was already firmly, though somewhat childishly, established in the minds of men.Yet even with this earliest set of laws, as with most things Babylonian, wefind ourselves dealing with the end of things rather than the beginnings. Hammurabi\u2019s code was not really the earliest. The preceding sets of laws have disappeared, but we have found several traces of them, and Hammurabi\u2019s own code clearly implies their existence. He is but reorganizing a legal system long established.\nHammurabi\u2019s Code of Laws:\nWhen Anu the Sublime, King of the Anunnaki, and Bel, the lord of Heaven and earth, who decreed the fate of the land, assigned to Marduk, the over-ruling son of Ea, God of righteousness, dominion over earthly man, and made him great among the Igigi, they called Babylon by his illustrious name, made it great on earth, and founded an everlasting kingdom in it, whose foundations are laid so solidly as those of heaven and earth; then Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared God, to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land, to destroy the wicked and the evil-doers; so that the strong should not harm the weak; so that I should rule over the black-headed people like Shamash, and enlighten the land, to further the well-being of mankind.\nHammurabi, the prince, called of Bel am I, making riches and increase, enriching Nippur and Dur-ilu beyond compare, sublime patron of E-kur; who reestablished Eridu and purified the worship of E-apsu; who conquered the four quarters of the world, made great the name of Babylon, rejoiced the heart of Marduk, his lord who daily pays his devotions in Saggil; the royal scion whom Sin made; who enriched Ur; the humble, the reverent, who brings wealth to Gish-shir-gal; the white king, heard of Shamash, the mighty, who again laid the foundations of Sippara; who clothed the gravestones of Malkat with green; who made E-babbar great, which is like the heavens, the warrior who guarded Larsa and renewed E-babbar, with Shamash as his helper; the lord who granted new life to Uruk, who brought plenteous water to its inhabitants, raised the head of E-anna, and perfected the beauty of Anu and Nana; shield of the land, who reunited the scattered inhabitants of Isin; who richly endowed E-gal-mach; the protecting king of the city, brother of the god Zamama; who firmly founded the farms of Kish, crowned E-me-te-ursag with glory, redoubled the great holy treasures of Nana, managed the temple of Hursaj-kalama; the grave of the enemy, whose help brought about the victory; who increased the power of Cuthah; made all glorious in E-shidlam, the black steer, who gored the enemy; beloved of the god Nebo, who rejoiced the inhabitants of Borsippa, the Sublime; who is indefatigable for E-zida; the divine king of the city; the White, Wise; who broadened the fields of Dilbat, who heaped up the harvests for Urash; the Mighty, the lord to whom come scepter and crown, with which he clothes himself; the Elect of Ma-ma; who fixed the temple bounds of Kesh, who made rich the holy feasts of Nin-tu; the provident, solicitous, who provided food and drink for Lagash and Girsu, who provided large sacrificial offerings for the temple of Ningirsu; who captured the enemy, the Elect of the oracle who fulfilled the prediction of Hallab, who rejoiced the heart of Anunit; the pure prince, whose prayer is accepted by Adad; who satisfied the heart of Adad, the warrior, in Karkar, who restored the vessels for worship in E-ud-gal-gal; the king who granted life to the city of Adab; the guide of E-mach; the princely king of the city, the irresistible warrior, who granted life to the inhabitants of Mashkanshabri, and brought abundance to the temple of Shidlam; the White, Potent, who penetrated the secret cave of the bandits, saved the inhabitants of Malka from misfortune, and fixed their home fast in wealth; who established pure sacrificial gifts for Ea and Dam-gal-nun-na, who made his kingdom everlastingly great; the princely king of the city, who subjected the districts on the Ud-kib-nun-na Canal to the sway of Dagon, his Creator; who spared the inhabitants of Mera and Tutul; the sublime prince, who makes the face of Ninni shine; who presents holy meals to the divinity of Nin-a-zu, who cared for its inhabitants in their need, provided a portion for them in Babylon in peace; the shepherd of the oppressed and of the slaves; whose deeds find favor before Anunit, who provided for Anunit in the temple of Dumash in the suburb of Agade; who recognizes the right, who rules by law; who gave back to the city of Ashur its protecting god; who let the name of Ishtar of Nineveh remain in E-mish-mish; the Sublime, who humbles himself before the great gods; successor of Sumula-il; the mighty son of Sin-muballit; the royal scion of Eternity; the mighty monarch, the sun of Babylon, whose rays shed light over the land of Sumer and Akkad; the king, obeyed by the four quarters of the world; Beloved of Ninni, am I.\nWhen Marduk sent me to rule over men, to give the protection of right to the land, I did right and righteousness in . . . , and brought about the well-being of the oppressed.\n1. If any one ensnare another, putting a ban upon him, but he can not prove it, then he that ensnared him shall be put to death.\n4. If he satisfy the elders to impose a fine of grain or money, he shall receive the fine that the action produces.\n5. If a judge try a case, reach a decision, and present his judgment in writing; if later error shall appear in his decision, and it be through his own fault, then he shall pay twelve times the fine set by him in the case, and he shall be publicly removed from the judge\u2019s bench, and never again shall he sit there to render judgement.\n6. If any one steal the property of a temple or of the court, he shall be put to death, and also the one who receives the stolen thing from him shall be put to death.\n8. If any one steal cattle or sheep, or an ass, or a pig or a goat, if it belong to a god or to the court, the thief shall pay thirtyfold therefor; if they belonged to a freed man of the king he shall pay tenfold; if the thief has nothing with which to pay he shall be put to death.\n9. If any one lose an article, and find it in the possession of another: if the person in whose possession the thing is found say \u201cA merchant sold it to me, I paid for it before witnesses,\u201d and if the owner of the thing say, \u201cI will bring witnesses who know my property,\u201d then shall the purchaser bring the merchant who sold it to him, and the witnesses before whom he bought it, and the owner shall bring witnesses who can identify his property. The judge shall examine their testimony\u2013both of the witnesses before whom the price was paid, and of the witnesses who identify the lost article on oath. The merchant is then proved to be a thief and shall be put to death. The owner of the lost article receives his property, and he who bought it receives the money he paid from the estate of the merchant.\n10. If the purchaser does not bring the merchant and the witnesses before whom he bought the article, but its owner bring witnesses who identify it, then the buyer is the thief and shall be put to death, and the owner receives the lost article.\n11. If the owner do not bring witnesses to identify the lost article, he is an evil-doer, he has traduced, and shall be put to death.\n12. If the witnesses be not at hand, then shall the judge set a limit, at the expiration of six months. If his witnesses have not appeared within the six months, he is an evil-doer, and shall bear the fine of the pending case.\n551 or 552-479BC\nConfucius was born in a poor family in the year 551 B.C., and he was born in the state of Lu. His original name was K\u2019ung Ch\u2019iu. His father, commander of a district in Lu, died three years after Confucius was born, leaving the family in poverty; but Confucius nevertheless received a fine education. He was married at the age of 19 and had one son and two daughters.\nThis chinese man was a well-known leader in philosophy and he also made many wise phrases and theories about the law, life, and the government. Philosophy is a kind of a system of ideas and thoughts that talk about the human\u2019s behavior, the rules that you should follow to make a successful life, and about the government.\nIn other words, it\u2019s about thoughts and theories that teach other people lessons about principles, or rules, about life and it also teaches you a moral ( sort of like the morals that are at the end of a fable). Confucius is famous for his philosophy because he made many wise sayings in ancient China that helped many people learn about nature, the world, and the human behavior. He also helped the government and the emperor by teaching them lessons on how the emperor should rule his kingdom successfully.\nHe worked as a keeper of a market. Then he was a farm worker who took care of parks and farm animals. When he was 20, he worked for the governor of his district.\nHis mother died in 527 BC, and after a period of mourning he began his career as a teacher, usually traveling about and instructing the small body of disciples that had gathered around him. His fame as a man of learning and character and his reverence for Chinese ideals and customs soon spread through the principality of Lu.\nLiving as he did in the second half of the Zhou (Chou) dynasty (1027?-256 BC), when feudalism degenerated in China and intrigue and vice were rampant, Confucius deplored the contemporary disorder and lack of moral standards. He came to believe that the only remedy was to convert people once more to the principles and precepts of the sages of antiquity. He therefore lectured to his pupils on the ancient classics.\nConfucius taught in his school for many years. His theories and principles were spread throughout China by his disciples, and soon many people learned from his wise sayings.One of his rules said,\u201d If you governed your province well and treat your people kindly, you kingdom shall not lose any war. If you govern selfishly to your people, you kingdom will not only lose a war, but your people will break away from your kingdom.\u201d He had also said a wise phrase called the golden rule that is still being used as a rule today. It said,\u201dA man should practice what he preaches, but a man should also preach what he practices.\u201d\nOne day, his students and he passed a grave where they saw a women weeping at a gravestone. She told Confucius that her husband, her husband\u2019s father, and her son were killed by a tiger. When Confucius asked her why she didn\u2019t leave such a fated spot, she answered that in this place there was no oppressive government.\nConfucius said,\u201dRemember this, my child. An oppressive government is fiercer and more feared than a tiger.\u201d That meant that the government in the woman\u2019s province did not rule the province well. So Confucius said that the government was more feared than a tiger. This was one of the many events he had to give a person a less on\nHe taught the great value of the power of example. Rulers, he said, can be great only if they themselves lead exemplary lives, and were they willing to be guided by moral principles, their states would inevitably become prosperous and happy.\nConfucius had, however, no opportunity to put his theories to a public test until, at the age of 52, he was appointed magistrate of Chung-tu, and the next year minister of crime of the state of Lu. His administration was successful; reforms were introduced, justice was fairly dispensed, and crime was almost eliminated. So powerful did Lu become that the ruler of a neighboring state maneuvered to secure the minister\u2019s dismissal. Confucius left his office in 496 BC, traveling about and teaching, vainly hoping that some other prince would allow him to undertake measures of reform. In 484 BC, after a fruitless search for an ideal ruler, he returned for the last time to Lu.\nConfucius was then abandoned from his province and he wandered about China for 13 years. When Confucius was 69 years old, he returned to Lu, his home state, and he died there 3 years after settling in Lu \u2013 479 BC.\nBased on Confucius\u2026\nAfter Confucius died, he was buried in a grave in the city of Ch\u2019uFu, Shandong. Today the site of his final resting place is the beautiful K\u2019ung Forest.\nYet, when the philosopher died, many people honored all of Confucius\u2019 work by building temples in every city in China to honor Confucius. Since Confucius\u2019 teachings and philosophy was so advanced, it was the education for China for 2,000 years. It is called Confucianism.Confucius himself had a simple moral and political teaching: to love others; to honor one\u2019s parents; to do what is right instead of what is of advantage; to practice \u201creciprocity,\u201d i.e. \u201cdon\u2019t do to others what you would not want yourself\u201d; to rule by moral example (d\u00e9) instead of by force and violence; and so forth. Confucius thought that a ruler who had to resort to force had already failed as a ruler. \u201cYour job is to govern, not to kill\u201d\nConfucius did not put into writing the principles of his philosophy; these were handed down only through his disciples.\nThe Lun Yu (Analects), a work compiled by some of his disciples, is considered the most reliable source of information about his life and teachings. One of the historical works that he is said to have compiled and edited, the Ch\u2019un Ch\u2019iu (Spring and Autumn Annals), is an annalistic account of Chinese history in the state of Lu from 722 to 481 BC. In learning he wished to be known as a transmitter rather than as a creator, and he therefore revived the study of the ancient books. His own teachings, together with those of his main disciples, are found in the Shih Shu (Four Books) of Confucian literature, which became the textbooks of later Chinese generations.\nConfucius \u201cMaster Kung,\u201d (551 BCE \u2013 479 BCE) was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher, whose teachings and philosophy have deeply influenced Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese thought and life. His philosophy emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice and sincerity. These values gained prominence in China over other doctrines, such as Legalism or Taoism during the Han Dynasty. Confucius\u2019 thoughts have been developed into a system of philosophy known as Confucianism. It was introduced to Europe by the Jesuit Matteo Ricci, who was the first to Latinise the name as \u201cConfucius.\u201d\nHis teachings may be found in the Analects of Confucius, a collection of \u201cbrief aphoristic fragments\u201d, which was compiled many years after his death. Modern historians do not believe that any specific documents can be said to have been written by Confucius, but for nearly 2,000 years he was thought to be the editor or author of all the Five Classics such as the Classic of Rites (editor), and the Spring and Autumn Annals (author).\nWhat seems a matter of tiny importance has been long commented on and shows another of the Confucian specificities that have to be underlined. When one knows that in his time horses were perhaps ten times more expensive than stablemen, one can understand that, by not asking about the horses, Confucius demonstrated his greatest priority: human beings. Thus, when one sees a little bit of the greater picture, according to many ancient or recent Eastern and Western commentators, Confucius\u2019 teaching can be considered a noteworthy Chinese variant of humanism.\nConfucius also heavily emphasized what he calls \u201crites and music,\u201d referring to these social conventions as two poles to balance order and harmony. While rites, in short, show off social hierarchies, music unifies hearts in shared enjoyment. He added that rites are not only the way to arrange sacrificial tools, and music is not only the sound of stick on bell. Both are mutual communication between someone\u2019s humanity and his social context, both feed social relationships, like the five prototypes: between father and son, husband and wife, prince and subject, elder and youngster, and between friends. Duties are always balanced and if a subject must obey his ruler, he also has to tell him when he is wrong.\nConfucius\u2019 teachings have been turned later into a corps de doctrine by his numerous disciples and followers. In the centuries after his death, Mencius and Xun Zi both wrote a prominent book on these, and with time a philosophy has been elaborated, which is known in the West as Confucianism.\nAlthough Confucianism is often followed in a religious manner by the Chinese, argument continues over whether to refer to it as a religion because it makes little reference to theological or spiritual matters (God(s), the afterlife, etc.).\nConfucius\u2019s principles gained wide acceptance primarily because of their basis in common Chinese opinion. He championed strong familial loyalty, ancestor worship, and respect of elders by their children and of husbands by their wives, and used the family as a basis for an ideal government. He expressed the well-known principle, \u201cDo not to others what you do not want done to yourself\u201d (the Golden Rule). He also looked nostalgically upon earlier days, and urged the Chinese, particularly the politicians, to model themselves on earlier examples \u2013 although whether or not older rulers had governed by Confucian standards is dubious.\nConfucius\u2019 political thought is based upon his ethical thought. He argues that the best government is one that rules through \u201crites\u201d and people\u2019s natural morality, rather than using bribery and force. He explained this in one of the most important analects:\u201dIf the people be led by laws, and uniformity sought to be given them by punishments, they will try to avoid the punishment, but have no sense of shame. If they be led by virtue, and uniformity sought to be given them by the rules of propriety, they will have the sense of shame, and moreover will become good.\u201d This \u201csense of shame\u201d is somewhat an internalization of duty, where the punishment precedes the evil action, instead of following it in the form of laws as in Legalism.\nWhile he supported the idea of the all-powerful Emperor, probably because of the chaotic state of China at his time, his philosophies contained a number of elements to limit the power of the rulers. He argued for according language with truth \u2013 thus honesty was of the most paramount importance. Even in facial expression, one sought always to achieve this. In discussing the relationship between a son and his father (or a subject and his king), he underlined the need to give due respect to superiors; this demanded that the inferior must give advice to his superior if the superior was considered to be taking the wrong course of action in a given situation.\nThis was built upon by his disciple Mencius to argue that if the king was not acting like a king, he would lose the Mandate of Heaven and be overthrown. Therefore, tyrannicide is justified because a tyrant is more a thief than a king (but attempted tyrannicide is not).\nConfucius\u2019 philosophical school was first continued by his direct disciples and by his grandson Zisi. Mencius and Xun Zi are his two great followers, one on each \u201cside\u201d of his philosophy, perhaps simply described as optimism and pessimism. They built upon and expanded his ethico-political system.\nSoon after Confucius\u2019 death, Qufu, his hometown, became a place of devotion and remembrance. It is still a major destination for cultural tourism, and many Chinese people visit his grave and the surrounding temples. In China, there are many temples where one can find representations of Buddha, Lao Zi and Confucius together. There are also many temples dedicated to him which have been used for Confucianist ceremonies.\nThis assignment traces the history of Human Resource Management from\nthe Industrial Revolution in the 18th century to present times.\nThe assignment discusses key periods and movements in this field and\nexpands on their contribution to modern Human Resource Management.\nIn discussing the history of Human Resources Management it is\nimportant to offer a definition of the subject.

Governments tried to fight this using\nlegislation such as the Combination Acts of 1799/1800 in the UK, which\nbanned everything from meetings to combinations.\n\u201cThere were also attempts to form general unions of all workers\nirrespective of trade. William Benbow (a Lancashire shoemaker), Robert\nOwen and many others looked upon trade unionism not just as a means\nfor protecting and improving workers\u2019 living standards, but also as a\nvehicle for changing the entire political and economic order of\nsociety. Owen experimented with co-operative ventures and \u2018labour\nexchanges\u2019; both attempts to bypass the existing order of wage\nslavery.\u201d (Trade Unions Congress, 2004)\nTrade Unions were and are still an influential force, working for\ncontinued economic and social development of workers and societies in\nmany countries around the world.\nThe Human Relations Movement :\nThe Human Relations movement \u201c\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6argues that people are not just logical\ndecision makers but have needs for creativity support, recognition and\nself-affirmation.\u201d (Theworkingmanager.com, 2004).\nThe movement presents an alternative and opposite approach to\nscientific management as it focuses on the individual and not the\nThe Human Relations movement boasts some of the world\u2019s foremost\nmanagement thinkers and theories in its ranks:\n\u2013 Abraham Maslow.

His father was a Sadler and ironmonger who also served as local postmaster; his mother came from one of the prosperous farming families of Newtown.\nOwen found himself in what would soon become the capital city of the English Industrial Revolution on the eve of that event as factories were built and textile manufacture expanded.. He was a serious, methodical young man who already possessed an extensive knowledge of the retail aspect of his chosen trade. In late 1790 he borrowed \u00a3100 from his brother William and set up independently with a mechanic named Jones as a manufacturer of the new spinning mules. After a few months he parted with Jones and started business on his own with three mules as a cotton spinner. During 1792, Owen applied for and was appointed manager of Peter Drinkwater\u2019s new spinning factory, the Piccadilly Mill, where he quickly achieved the reputation as a spinner of fine yarns, thanks to the application of steam power to the mule. One of Drinkwater\u2019s most important clients was Samuel Oldknow, maker of fine muslins. Drinkwater had intended Owen to become a partner in his new business by 1795, but a projected marriage alliance between Drinkwater\u2019s daughter and Oldknow caused the cancellation of the agreement with Owen. Hurt and unwilling to remain a mere manager, Owen left Piccadilly Mill in 1795.\nThe industrial community at New Lanark had been planned by Richard Arkwright and David Dale in 1783, to take advantage of the water power of the Falls of Clyde deep in the river valley below the burgh of Lanark, twenty-four miles upstream from of Glasgow. In 1800, there were four mills making New Lanark the largest cotton-spinning complex in Britain, and the population of the village (over 2000) was greater than that of Lanark itself. Dale was progressive both as a manufacturer and as an employer, being especially careful to safeguard the welfare of the children.\nNew Lanark made Owen\u2019s reputation as a philanthropist. The village remained much as Dale had made it although more living space was created and higher standards of hygiene were enforced. The primary contribution of Owen at new Lanark was in public buildings which emphasized his concern for the welfare of his workers, specifically, the New Institution for the Formation of Character (1816), the Infant School (1817) and the Store.\nAt New Lanark, Owen was responsible for overall management and general policy. His employees did not at first enjoy his attempts to regulate and improve their lives and his paternalism was more rigorous than his frequently absent partner, Dale. As a successful manager of people and business, Owen displayed a skill well in advance of his day but his welfarism, which was not really that unique, had a practical side. His store helped to raise real wages and the infant school enabled mothers to return to work when their children reached the age of one year. As a financier, Owen\u2019s methods were sophisticated. He had relatively little capital of his own, yet his skilful management of partnerships enabled him to survive and become a wealthy man before leaving New Lanark in 1828.\nAt New Lanark, Owen involved himself in the public affairs of the day, the most important being education, factory reform, and the improvement of the Poor Laws. His first public speech was on education (1812) and was elaborated upon in his first published work, The First Essay on the Principle of the Formation of Character (1813). Together with three further essays (1813-1814), this comprised A New View of Society, which remains Owen\u2019s clearest declaration of principles.\nOwen\u2019s explicit denunciation of religion evoked a mounting campaign against him which in later years damaged his public reputation and the work associated with his name. His last real opportunity to secure official approval for his scheme came in 1820 when he produced his Report to the County of Lanark in which his communitarian and educational theories were blended with David Ricardo\u2019s labor theory of value.\nHISTORY OF 19th CENTURY AMERICAN POORHOUSES:\nPoorhouses were tax-supported residential institutions to which people were required to go if they could not support themselves. They were started as a method of providing a less expensive (to the taxpayers) alternative to what we would now days call \u201cwelfare\u201d \u2013 what was called \u201coutdoor relief\u201d in those days. People requested help from the community Overseer of the Poor ( sometimes also called a Poor Master) \u2013 an elected town official. If the need was great or likely to be long-term, they were sent to the poorhouse instead of being given relief while they continued to live independently. Sometimes they were sent there even if they had not requested help from the Overseer of the Poor. That was usually done when they were found guilty of begging in public, etc.\nBEFORE POORHOUSES:\nPrior to the establishment of poorhouses the problem of what to do with paupers in a community was dealt with in one of three ways:\n1. Outdoor Relief provided through an Overseer of the Poor: When people fell upon hard times and members of their family, friends or members of their church congregations could not provide enough assistance to tide them over, they made application to an elected local official called the Overseer of the Poor. Within a budget of tax money, he might provide them with food, fuel, clothing, or even permission to get medical treatment to be paid out of tax funds.\n2. Auctioning off the Poor: People who could not support themselves (and their families) were put up for bid at public auction. In an unusual type of auction, the pauper was sold to the lowest bidder (the person who would agree to provide room and board for the lowest price) \u2014 usually this was for a specific period of a. year or so. The person who got the contract got the use of the labor of the pauper for free in return for feeding, clothing, housing and providing health care for the pauper and his/her family. The welfare of the paupers depended almost entirely upon the kindness and fairness of the bidder. If he was motivated only by a desire to make the maximum profit off the \u201cuse\u201d of the pauper, then concern for \u201cthe bottom line\u201d might result in the pauper being denied adequate food, or safe and comfortable shelter, or even necessary medical treatment.\n3. Contracting with someone in the community to care for Paupers: In this situation the care of a group of paupers was delegated to the person(s) who would contract to provide care at, again, the lowest price. This system allowed the opportunity for somewhat better supervision as indicated in the terms of the contract \u2014 which might specify what minimum standard of care must be provided and that community officers would do inspections, etc. There were still often the same opportunities for abuse that were noted above.\nTHE BEGINNING of the COUNTY POORHOUSE SYSTEM:\nDuring the second quarter of the 19th century, as the industrial revolution had its effect on the United States, the importation of the factory system from England was followed almost immediately by the full scale adoption of what seemed to be an inherent component of that system \u2014 the Poorhouse System.\nMaking History Today:\nAn anchor in largely African-American North Philadelphia, the site of the first ordination of the first women priests in the Episcopal Church, the George W. South Memorial Church of the Advocate (1887-1897) is a landmark in the religious, social and architectural history of the United States. Born of the greatest single act of religious philanthropy in the history of Philadelphia at the time, the Church of the Advocate was built as a memorial to the merchant and civil leader George W. South. Its architect was Charles Burns one of the most prominent ecclesiastical architects in the late 19th and early 20th century. The church is the centerpiece of a sprawling complex including a chapel, parish house, and curacy and newly constructed multi-purpose building (the Paul and Christine Washington Family and Community Center).\nNo other church in America has been built in such a grand scale specifically for the working class. Also, none exhibits such a wide range of the canonical elements of Gothic Revival architecture: lavish architectural sculpture; stained glass windows by Clayton & Bell, one of the leading English firms of the period; a full apparatus of flying buttresses and an orientation to the true East. The church demonstrates the doctrine of involving workmen in the design process, echoing the programs that are part of the Advocate\u2019s history.\nNATIONAL CASH REGISTER ESTABILSHED:\nPresident Theodore Roosevelt called a precedent-shattering meeting at the temporary White House at 22 Lafayette Place, Washington, D.C. A great strike in the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania threatened a coal famine on Friday, October 3, 1902. The President feared \u201cuntold misery . . . with the certainty of riots which might develop into social war.\u201d1 Although he had no legal right to intervene, he sent telegrams to both sides summoning them to Washington to discuss the problem.\nRoosevelt, who had been injured a month earlier when his carriage was hit by a trolley car, sat in his wheelchair pleading with representatives of management and labor. \u201cWith all the earnestness there is in me . ..,\u201d the President urged, \u201cI ask that there be an immediate resumption of operations in the coal mines in some such way as will . . . meet the crying needs of the people.\u201d He appealed to the patriotism of the contestants to make \u201cindividual sacrifices for the general good.\u201d2\nThis meeting marked the turn of the U.S. Government from strikebreaker to peacemaker in industrial disputes. In the 19th century, presidents, if they acted at all, tended to side with employers. Andrew Jackson became a strikebreaker in 1834 when he sent troops to the construction sites of the Chesapeake and OhioCanal.3 War Department employees operated the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad during the Civil War.\nHere and there a ray of neutrality broke through the anti labor atmosphere. Congress established a Bureau of Labor in 1884, which was the forerunner of the present Department of Labor, Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, and Bureau of Labor Statistics. In 1886, Cleveland asked Congress to \u201cengraft\u201d on the Bureau of Labor a commission to prevent major strikes. In 1888, Congress passed a law aimed at promoting industrial peace in the railroad industry. After the Pullman strike, U.S. Commissioner of Labor Carroll D. Wright headed a group which made a colorless but honest report of the dispute. One recommendation provided the basis for the Erdman Act of 1898, under which the Commissioner of Labor and the Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission tried to mediate railroad strikes. The law had not yet been applied when a new Federal policy erupted from the industrial warfare in the coalfields in 1900 and 1902.\nJohn Mitchell, who at the age of 28 became president of the United Mine Workers in 1898, hoped to achieve the same kind of success in the anthracite or hard coalfields of Pennsylvania. Anthracite coal at the turn of the century was an unusual business. Unlike soft coal, anthracite was a natural monopoly heavily concentrated in a few hundred square miles in five counties in Pennsylvania. Anthracite coal, because it burned cleaner than soft coal, had become the main heating fuel in many Eastern cities. Rivalry for control of the industry led to over expansion, violent business fluctuations, and eventually control by a few large independent mine owners, coal railroads, and bankers.\nFor miners the work was hard, intermittent, and hazardous. To keep wages low, operators flooded the coalfields with immigrants from Eastern and Southern Europe. The men were of 14 different nationalities, spoke different languages, and had different customs. Of 150,000 workers, only 8,000 belonged to the United Mine Workers. But Mitchell hoped that the anthracite industry would negotiate with the union in order to reduce competition.\nMitchell underestimated the opposition of the mine operators, and the operators underestimated the militancy of their workers. In August 1900, the union drew up demands and asked for a conference. The operators refused to deal with the union. Mitchell offered to have the dispute arbitrated. The operators rejected the offer. Mitchell reluctantly called a strike on September 17, 1900. He was apprehensive about the miners\u2019 response. But \u201cpoetic justice has been meted out,\u201d he exultantly recalled. The non-English speaking miners, introduced to break labor organizations, had become staunch supporters of the United Mine Workers.\nThe White House was caught off guard by this major strike on the eve of a Presidential campaign. President William McKinley was running for reelection against William Jennings Bryan under the slogan of \u201cFour Years More of the Full Dinner Pail.\u201d Some newspapers charged that the strike was fostered by \u201cconspirators working in the interests of Bryan.\u201d Mitchell repeatedly denied that politics motivated the strike, but he admitted that the forthcoming election \u201cproved of incalculable assistance to the mineworkers.\u201d\nThe coal strike of 1902:\nThe strike of 1900 was the prelude to a larger drama\u2013the great anthracite coal strike of 1902. Restless miners demanded more pay and shorter hours, while the mine operators complained that profits were low, and that the union destroyed discipline. When the owners refused to negotiate with the union, miners appealed to President Roosevelt to call a special session of Congress. The operators, on the other hand, resented the Federal mediation which had brought about the shotgun agreement of 1900, and they bristled at the idea of renewed Federal interference.\nSCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT:\nThis is one of the names adopted for a certain body of principles and methods of management which have been propounded as applicable to industrial undertakings, other names being Efficiency Engineering and Industrial Management. Developed in the United States, mainly since about 1905, and particularly in connexion with engineering work, the methods of Scientific Management have exercised a profound influence on methods of factory management in England and on the continent of Europe, as well as in America. Though applicable to most of the problems of industrial administration, they have in fact been worked out mainly in connexion with the control of workshop processes.\nThe theory underlying Scientific Management is briefly that there is one best way \u201cof doing every act that has to be performed in a workshop, and that it is the duty of the management to discover that \u201cone best way \u201d and to make such arrangements as will ensure that it is always carried out.\nThe method of procedure may be indicated by propounding the following three questions:\nI. What are the factors which limit the speed of a particular workshop process or machine?\n2. Why is it that the volume of output from a particular process is always less at the end of the week than the product of the speed of the process or of the machine, multiplied by the working hours in the week, would lead one to expect?\n3. Why do some workers produce so much more than others working under the same conditions?\nAn attempt to discover full answers to these questions leads to very far-reaching inquiries, and radical changes in organization and administrative methods may become necessary if the results of such inquiries are to be put to effective use.\nThus, the investigations prompted by the first question may be expected to lead to modifications of the mechanism and construction of a machine to enable it to run faster; to modifications of tools or appliances used; to changes of the material used for machine parts, for tools or for accessory purposes. Changes in the design of the\nwork to be done might also follow, which, while leaving the product just as suitable for its purpose as before, would enable the process to be carried out faster.\nInvestigation of the second question might lead to equally valuable discoveries. For instance, it might be found that the process was stopped altogether for portions of the working week for such reasons as lack of continuous supply of material to be worked on; changes of the \u201d set-up \u201d of a machine due to change in the nature of the work to be done; breakdowns of the machine; adjusting or sharpening of tools; waiting for instructions and many other possible causes.\nThe third question would lead to the discovery that different workmen had slightly different ways of doing the same thing, and that the ways of the faster workers could be explained to and adopted by the others; that some workers were temperamentally. more suited to a particular kind of work than others; that some were not trying; that others were trying too hard and were worrying themselves by their failure; that in some cases the relations between the workmen and the foreman were happy and in other cases not.\nThe origin of the movement is traceable to the work of F. W. Taylor, an American engineer, for many years a manager in the works of the Bethlehem Steel Co., Midvale, Pa. His investigations, leading later to the development of his methods and principles of management, sprang from the attempt on his part to lay down a standard fair day\u2019s work and to see that he got it from the men under his control. This led him into a deep analysis of the elements affecting the amount of work that could be done in a given time, and in turn by the kind of steps already indicated to the formulation of his system. One of the largest single pieces of investigation carried through by him was concerned with establishing the laws governing the rate of removal of metal by cutting-tools in a machine. This was carried on at intervals during 26 years. One result of it was the discovery in 1899 of modifications in the composition of tool steel from which the modern high-speed steel was developed.\nIn 1895 Taylor published his Differential Piece Rate, which may be considered to be the basis on which all the multitudinous systems of payment by result of the Scientific Management movement are founded. Taylor\u2019s system contained two revolutionary ideas. The first was the careful specification in great detail of the work to be done, with standard times allowed for each element of the work as against the \u201d overall \u201d time hitherto specified for the complete job.\nThe material equipment of a works requires special attention to keep it in conformity with the standard. The quality of raw material must be more carefully regulated to enable it to be worked at the standard speeds and on the standard methods. The elimination of waiting between jobs requires elaborate planning of work; the making of time studies is the work of experts; the studies themselves require constant revision to suit changes in design, working methods or material; the incentive to output necessitates systematic inspection of work to ensure the standards of accuracy or finish being maintained. In these and numberless other directions work of a much higher order than hitherto is demanded from the management staff if the system is to function at all.\nIn order to enable the works management to cope with the new demands made upon it, Taylor devised a new method of administrative organization known as functional control, and applied it particularly to the sphere of the shop foreman.\nThis rigid and literal working-out of Taylor\u2019s idea of \u201d management by experts \u201d had usually to be modified in practice on account of the friction and confusion it almost inevitably led to, due to the difficulty of defining sufficiently clearly the sphere of each functional foreman, or to the clash of personalities.\nHarrington Emerson embodied the necessary modification of Taylor\u2019s scheme in his plan of \u201d Staff and Line\u201d organization, published in 1909. In this the usual chain of executive authority, the \u201d line,\u201d was maintained, by which a group of men was wholly answerable to a single foreman, a group of foremen to a departmental manager, several of these to a works manager, and so on. The experts, on the other hand, were collected into special \u201d staff \u201d departments, and their functions were to advise or instruct the \u201cline \u201d officials as to what instructions should be given, or how their work could best be done.\nThe last of the three questions propounded at the beginning of this article did not receive the same amount of attention as the other two at the hands of any of the leaders of the Scientific Management school of thought. Taylor in his paper on Shop Management (1903) does, it is true, Taylor\u2019s aim was the discovery, by records of individual performance, which men were as a matter of fact most successful in carrying out the task set them. The less successful were to be shown the correct methods of working, but if they still failed to reach the predetermined level of achievement, which was that of a good man, not an average worker, they were to be discharged to make room for others.\nHenry Ford Sociological Department:\nThe Ford Motor Company announced what one Ford biographer called \u201cthe most advanced labor policy in the world.\u201d On January 5, 1914, One week hence the automaker would establish a minimum wage of $5 a day, twice the industry standard. But in the frenzy that followed, few noticed the fine print. Ford would indeed improve the lives of thousands with increased wages, but not before they conformed to his social ideals.\nWhen Ford thought about Lee\u2019s findings in late December, an incident earlier in the year began to make sense. On a tour of the Highland Park plant just outside Detroit, he had seen two workers get into a fistfight. Ford\u2019s embarrassment had turned to dismay when he realized that his men were discontented enough to become violent. Those two men were on his mind at a director\u2019s meeting in the first days of January 1914. With the United States in the midst of a depression, the company had had a net income of more than $27 million and paid dividends of over $5 million in the previous year. As the discussion turned to projected expenditures for 1914, Ford began scrawling wage figures on a blackboard. He started with $2.34, the current base pay. The directors all agreed it could be increased. He calculated what $3 a day would cost, then $3.50, then $3.75, and on up to $4.75. Finally, as legend goes, his financial manager, James Couzens, dared him to raise it to $5. He did.\nThe high figure met with some resistance that day, but when the directors met again on January 5, everyone had warmed to the idea. According to the minutes, \u201cThe plan was gone over at considerable length,\u201d after which the directors unanimously approved it. The company invited reporters from three local papers to the factory that very day for an announcement. As Ford gazed out Couzens\u2019s office window, the reporters gathered behind him. Couzens read from a two-page typed statement that showed the company did not mistake the scope of its undertaking.\n\u201dThe Ford Motor Company, the greatest and most successful automobile manufacturing company in the world, will, on January 12, inaugurate the greatest revolution in the matter of rewards for its workers ever known in the industrial world,\u201d he began. He explained the details: Not only would the plant switch from two nine-hour shifts to three eight-hour ones, allowing it to run around the clock, but each man over 22 would receive the minimum wage of $5 a day, and ones under 22 would qualify if they had dependents. \u201cThe commonest laborer who sweeps the floor shall receive his $5 per day,\u201d Ford told the reporters. \u201cWe believe in making 20,000 men prosperous and contented rather than follow the plan of making a few slave drivers in our establishment millionaires.\u201d\nThe story hit Detroit newsstands late that afternoon, and by early morning the next day it topped the front page of every major paper in ecstatically hyperbolic headlines. The Michigan Manufacturer and Financial Record called Ford\u2019s plan \u201cthe most generous stroke of policy between captain of industry and worker that the country has ever seen,\u201d while the Toledo Blade deemed it \u201ca lordly gift\u201d and the New York Evening Post \u201ca magnificent act of generosity.\u201d One paper declared that the \u201cWorld\u2019s Economic History Has Nothing Equal to Ford Plan.\u201d\nEven before the story broke across the country, on January 6, a crowd began amassing outside the employment office at Highland Park. Some 10,000 gathered that day and 15,000 the next, even though the company, whose 4,000 open jobs had quickly been filled, posted no-hiring signs in three languages. The mob, many of them impoverished out-of-towners who had spent their last dollar getting to Detroit, kept warm in the zero-degree weather by binding blankets and newspapers around themselves with twine and gathering around trash-can fires.\nThe atmosphere turned from convivial to menacing as the days passed. On January 12 the men pushed through a wooden barrier and barred employees from entering the factory. Police finally took control by turning a fire hose on the crowd. The water immediately froze the men\u2019s clothes, and they dispersed to thaw out. The Ford company nonetheless received 14,000 job-application letters in the week after the announcement, and two months later it was still getting 500 a day.\nHenry Ford makes it difficult to pinpoint his true motivations, but the plan benefited the company in many ways. In addition to motivating his workers, Ford was, by giving his employees more disposable income (or any at all), also creating a consumer base for his product. He later claimed that with the $5 day \u201cwe really started our business, for on that day we first created a lot of customers.\u201d But he was also influenced by the Progressive and populist movements and may truly have been animated by generosity. \u201cOur company is making enough money to do some good in the world,\u201d he said, \u201cand I\u2019m glad to do it.\u201d\nStill, his generosity, it soon emerged, came with strings. What few noticed on January 5 was that workers did not automatically qualify for the raise just by doing their jobs. Women, who had been earning on average $2.04 per day, did not qualify at all. \u201cI consider women only a temporary factor in industry,\u201d Ford explained. \u201cI pay our women well so they can dress attractively and get married.\u201d Men would have to live in Detroit and work at the plant for six months before they could earn the full amount.\nEven then they had to meet Ford\u2019s social standards to benefit. He shared the worry of many of the wealthy that laborers would squander their enlarged paychecks on vice and cheap thrills. Lee explained that the money might \u201cwork a tremendous handicap along the paths of rectitude and right living and would make of them a menace to society, and so it was established at [the] start that no man was to receive the money who could not use it advisedly and conservatively.\u201d\nTo determine who was worthy, Ford expanded the company\u2019s Sociological Department, set up in 1913. One-hundred fifty investigators visited employees\u2019 homes and questioned them about everything from their marital status to their savings, health, hobbies, and child care. Excessive drinking, gambling, buying on credit, a dirty home, and an unwholesome diet were all grounds for probation; if a worker hadn\u2019t cleaned up his act in six months, not only did he not earn his $5 a day, he was fired.The man who had engineered the assembly line was now trying to engineer his employees\u2019 private lives. \u201cWe want to make men in this factory as well as automobiles.\u201d he said. The Sociological Department, which resembled contemporaneous Progressive experiments like the Urban League, was at bottom a reflection of the Victorian strictures under which Ford had been raised. Critics decried the company\u2019s intrusion into its workers\u2019 home lives. \u201cThe payment of good wages does not give an employer the authority to seek to regulate the internal family affairs of any man,\u201d ran an editorial in the St. Albans, Vermont, and Messenger.\nFinally, sick of the criticism, Ford abolished the department in 1920.\nFord called the $5 day \u201cone of the finest cost-cutting moves we ever made,\u201d but it is impossible to isolate its effects from those of the other benefits implemented that year\u2014sick leave, a company bank, free lawyers, medical care, and the extension of lunchtime from 15 to 20 minutes\u2014or from the inflation and labor demands of World War I, which began that November. By the time the United States entered World War I, three years later, the $5 day was commonplace across industry, but to those at Ford who first qualified in 1914 it was a godsend. One Highland Park employee was even moved to pen a poem in celebration.\nThe term personnel Management was accepted:\nHuman resource management (HRM) is a fairly new concept, first given general currency by the HarvardBusinessSchool in the early 1980s. Fifty years ago companies were still debating whether the term \u2018personnel department\u2019 should replace \u2019employment department\u2019 and in the 1920\u2019s even the largest companies commonly operated with simply a \u2018time office\u2019 and a separate \u2018welfare department\u2019. This transformation of people management activities reflects a greater emphasis on individual rather than collective employee relations, an increase in the complexity of the employment process and the growth of an important strategic dimension based on the notion of \u2018human capital\u2019. In Europe, there has long been a considerable gap between the Anglo-Saxon and continental approaches to the way enterprises are organized and operated. Companies in the UK and Ireland have a significantly higher proportion of managers relative to other employees than companies in countries such as Germany, and particularly Italy. This emphasis on management positions has itself been a factor in the development of human resource management within the British Isles. If we look at the proportion of professionally qualified human resource (HR) staff compared to other employees in medium-large companies across Europe, we find the UK has a ratio of just 1:127, while other (EU15) states (except for Ireland and Sweden) have an average ratio of 1:2,790. Although not all members and affiliates of professional personnel/HR bodies will be in management positions, the larger the HR department and the more sophisticated its staff, the more HRM jobs can be expected to exist.\nTypical HR departmental structure: EMEA (US-owned multinational)\nIf the multinational enterprise is large enough, or the European business is established as a virtually autonomous entity, the regional human resource position may be at a \u2018Director\u2019 or even \u2018VP\u2019 level. In a typical company with a regional workforce of 1,000 staff, the HRM would operate with one specialist professional and an HR assistant working out of the same office, while local personnel managers would cover the principal geographical zones. Where the company has only small sales or service operation, the routine HR activities will normally be carried out by a general administrator and payroll clerk (or external payroll provider).\nThe demands currently made upon HRM in the established EU countries differ considerably from those made upon their counterparts in new member states such as Poland, Hungary and the CzechRepublic. In the new EU states, all functions are generally more subject to line management control than in the EU, and this is reflected in the lower level of perceived autonomy amongst employees in Eastern Europe. Working practices also contrast significantly, especially in the incidence of shift work.\nComparison between employment characteristics in EU15 and new EU states (averages)\nEmployment characteristic EU15 States New EU States\nEmployee cannot change own working methods 29% 37%\nEmployees working on shifts 12.1% 23%\nEmployees working on Sunday 6.5% 11.7%\nEmployees with fixed-term/temporary job 10.5% 8.7%\nEmployees working at night 4.4% 5.4%\nEmployees with a second job 1.8% 5.2%\nLength of time in present job 10.9 years 13.4 years\nLength of working week 38.2 hours 44.4 hours\nLanguage training in workplace (av/yr) 4 hours 11 hours\nManagement training in workplace (av/yr) 12 hours 7 hours\nThe HRM concept remains undeveloped in many of the established EU member states such as France and Germany. This is largely due to over-reliance on administrative procedures and company rules, the codetermination powers of works councils, the prevalence of sectoral collective bargaining, and widespread union resistance to workplace innovation. It therefore remains uncertain how far HRM methods will become the norm for managing personnel issues in the new member states.\nWorld Ware-1\nMASSIVE EMPLOYMENT\nOntario Tories launch massive attack on workers\u2019 rights:\nThe Ontario Tory government has announced reactionary revisions to the province\u2019s labor code and is in the process of drafting legislation that will gut decades-old minimum employment standards. These changes, which are expected to be entrenched in law during the current session of the Ontario legislature, represent a new stage in the Tories\u2019 assault on workers\u2019 rights and will set a precedent for corresponding actions by governments across Canada and North America.The consultation paper also raises the possibility that this maximum may not apply to certain industries such as agriculture and construction.While the provision of a legal maximum workweek does not by itself guarantee workers will not face attempts by employers to coerce them to work even longer hours, it nevertheless represents an important legal protection which has stood for over a century. The proposed increase would set the standard back over 50 years. In other words, a company could compel its workers to work 60 hours one week, 48 the next and 72 hours in the third, and still be considered not to have exceeded the 60-hour maximum workweek The government is also proposing to eliminate the \u201cone day\u2019s rest in seven act\u201d and replace it with a requirement to provide only 48 consecutive hours of rest every two weeks. The suggestion by the Ministry of Labour that these changes are intended to bring democracy and choice into the workplace is a transparent fig leaf. Some 500 businesses and institutions surveyed by the government\u2019s Red Tape Commission identified reform of the ESA as a top priority to improve the province\u2019s competitive position and attract investment. When the Tories and the employers talk about making the labor market more flexible, they mean that workers should be placed even more at their employers\u2019 beck and call. In claiming that the striking down of decades-old minimum employment standards conforms with modern realities, the Tories are, with unintended irony, letting slip the truth\u2014the reality of capitalism is such that as labor becomes more productive, and wealth expands exponentially, the global struggle for profits necessitates an all-out reversal of workers\u2019 rights.\nA broadside against the unions:\nIn a decisive blow against an already compliant trade union movement, the Tory government introduced legislation November 2, which would cripple trade union rights and facilitate union-busting.\nAn amendment to the Labour Relations Act, Bill 139 stipulates that:\nIn all unionized workplaces, notices must be prominently posted explaining the procedures to be followed for desertification;\nThe window for union desertification is to be increased from 60 to 90 days;\nWhen a union certification drive fails, there is to be a one-year \u201ccooling-off\u201d period before another is permitted;\nIn cases where workers are negotiating a first union contract, separate votes must be held on the employers\u2019 contract proposals and whether to strike;\nEmployers that don\u2019t sell construction services, i.e., municipalities, schools, banks, etc., are to be allowed to tender work on their construction projects to nonunion contractors.\nThe salaries and benefits of all union officials making in excess of $100,000 annually will henceforth have to be publicly disclosed.\nMassive retrenchment during great depression:\nA century ago, philosopher and essayist George Santayana famously proclaimed that those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. But does that nugget of wisdom apply to the world of human resources?\nPerhaps. More to the point, a review of landmarks in the annals of HR may yield insights into where the profession is headed and, at a minimum, lend some perspective on how far it has come.\nSuch a reminder may inspire nostalgia, a deep sense of satisfaction at progress achieved \u2014 and hope for the future. With all that in mind, the editors of Human Resource Executive\u00ae considered the sweep of U.S. business and labor history and, with expert help, identified dozens of key events whose impact may be significant enough to classify them as turning points in the evolution of human resource theory and practice.\nIndeed, the fallout from many of the HR turning points has been so broad and deep as to jolt American society as a whole in one direction or another. Thus, it is hard to imagine many other professional fields whose evolution has been so closely intertwined with the ups and downs, twists and turns of economic and social progress. (Education is another that comes to mind.)\nA quick note on the process: The initial roster of \u201cprospective turning points\u201d identified by the editors of Human Resource Executive\u00ae was presented to a brain trust of distinguished HR academics (see sidebar). Panelists were asked to single out their top 10 picks to facilitate a consensus-based distillation of that longer list. Several panelists contributed their own personal turning-point candidates, some of which were incorporated into the master list. From the panelists\u2019 top-10 lists, a consensus top-20 list was formed. Those items are laid out in these pages along with an additional 20 \u201chonorable mentions\u201d included in the timeline.\nMany turning points are focused and self-contained events that occurred at a single point in time, such as the infamous 1911 Triangle Shirt Waist Co. fire, whose ultimate impact spread widely throughout the broad realm of employer-employee relations.\nOthers, such as the 1994 launch of The Monster Board, had a dramatic impact\u2013but primarily on a particular function of HR\u2013in that case, online recruitment. Still others were identified as key symbols of a broader trend that rocked \u2014 or continues to rattle \u2014 HR. An example is the 1977 formation of the Human Resource Planning Society, a manifestation of the emergence of the strategic perspective in HR.\nFor all their diversity of opinions, at least half of the panelists agreed that four of the turning-point candidates are worthy of special status. The \u201ctop four\u201d list:\n* The 1886 foundation of the American Federation of Labor;\n* The 1909 publication of Principles of Scientific Management;\n* Early 1930s research by the likes of Elton Mayo and Abraham Maslow into the human function in the workplace; and\n* The 1964 enactment of the Civil Rights Act and the subsequent 1965 formation of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.\nMitchell\u2019s assertion suggests this theme emerging from the chronology of turning points: A general shift from turning points involving change imposed by government action (e.g., the National Labor Relations Act, the Social Security Act, etc.), to trends and developments originating from within the private sector.\nWellington concurs with that perception. \u201cClearly, there has been a shift in thinking about the role of government and that of the employer,\u201d she says.\nIn recent years, she has witnessed a transformation among her students\u2019 attitudes that reflect the larger change in public perception. Wellington teaches a class on women in business leadership in which she frequently asks students, \u201cWhat entity would you turn to for assistance in balancing work and home life?\u201d\nIn earlier years, she says, \u201cstudents would have said, \u2018The government, of course.\u2019 But today they say, \u2018I\u2019d turn to my employer\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019d figure it out on my own.\u2019 \u201d Perhaps an even starker illustration of the fading impact of those earlier labor-oriented turning points in HR comes from Michael R. Losey, a consultant and former chief executive of the Society for Human Resource Management. An individual holding a \u201cmajor HR position\u201d in a large organization who was taking a class Losey was teaching shocked him by asking whether striking workers continue to be paid by their company while on strike.\n\u201cHow could this person not know that answer?\u201d he asks. \u201cWhere was her life experience or general education? How can she effectively serve as a general manager?\u201d Yet the decline in unions plays a part in another fundamental shift in the HR world that, according to Losey, has occurred too gradually to pin to any particular event that would qualify as a turning point. That\u2019s HR\u2019s evolution \u201cfrom a male-dominated profession to a profession dominated by women.\u201d\nIn 1992, conservative international affairs pundit Francis Fukuyama wrote a provocative book entitled The End of the History. In it, he argued that \u201ca true global culture has emerged, centering around technologically driven economic growth and the capitalist social relations necessary to produce and sustain it.\u201d No longer would tyrants rule or nations clash, given a new understanding of the universal path to prosperity and happiness, he wrote. Quaint-sounding, perhaps, for 2006.\nWorld War Two Employment (1939-1945)\nMany men worked in reserved occupations such as the steel industry or mining during the war. Many women who volunteered before the war joined the civil defence.\nIn the centuries-old history of armed struggle, there were a good few periods of transition from some methods and forms for its conduct to others. They did not emerge all at once and oftentimes they took place imperceptibly in response to a good many various developments, the dominant role among which was invariably played by the qualitative and quantitative changes in the evolution of the material and technical means, above all, by the apparition of new more sophisticated weapons. As the illustration, one can cite the Franco-Prussian war (1870-1871), which was waged, one might say, at the junction of two epochs in the development of military art.\nThe second half of the 19th century was characterized by the rapid growth of production, including the warlike industry, which offered to the Western states the opportunity for building-up more numerous armies than in the past and the chance for the considerable improvement of their combat hardware, in particular, for the intensive introduction of the more efficient rifled firearms. Besides, the use of rail transport started playing the significant role in ensuring the accelerated deployment of the army in the theatre of military operations, and the use of telegraph for the improvement of troop command and control.\nSpeaking about the present stage of military art development, one ought to single out the principal feature, which significantly distinguishes it from all the preceding periods. It consists in the changing of the contents of armed struggle, which form themselves under the impact of fundamentally different operational and strategic factors. The following triad occupies the exceptional position among them: the intensive development of precision (smart) weapons (PW), the emergence of radio-electronic warfare, and of space-based reconnaissance and navigation systems.\nThe special operations forces (SOF) are of no little significance in high-accuracy fighting engagement. For instance, during the war in Iraq (2003) they embarked on combat actions long before the start of the active phase of the air-land operation. The SOF units made the reconnaissance and supplementary reconnaissance of the critical objects and carried out target indication. Their drop shipment in the rear of the Iraqi troops was made by the airmobile method, with the military personnel being airdropped in the immediate proximity to the objectives. Besides, airborne descents were carried our involving the air dropping of the substantial military personnel, weapons and equipment by the aerial delivery method (the air dropping of the detachments of the 173rd Independent Airborne Brigade in Northern Iraq, of the units of the 82nd Airborne Division and of the 101st Air Assault Division).\nThe development of such integrated strike aerospace means with using new scientific achievements will usher in new technological breakthrough in the instruments of war and, consequently, in the contents of high-accuracy military engagement. This is yet another evidence confirming the fact that \u201cnoncontact,\u201d long-range combat actions will occupy the domineering position in future wars, the extensional scope of air-space-land maneuver will increase, the mobility of combat actions will rise and they will escalate precipitously, without continuous front lines, and electronic, energy-oriented and informational exposure will be put into effect with growing intensity time- and space-wise.\nIn preparing high-accuracy military engagement, it is expedient, in our view, to plan combat actions stage-wise:\n* First stage \u2014 the detection of the enemy by using the space-based and aerial reconnaissance means, the plotting of the exact coordinates of objectives (targets), the concurrent implementation of measures for counteracting reconnaissance, and by revealing enemy preparations for the launching of massive aircraft-launched missile attack;\n* Second stage \u2014 the deployment of the intrinsic attack-fire, \u201celectronic,\u201d aerospace and orbital forces, the implementation of measures for achieving the operational concealment and suddenness of military actions, fighting against enemy airmobile descents, subversive-terror detachments and groups in the event of their airdropping;\n* Third stage \u2014 delivering aircraft-launched missile attacks against the enemy, the winning of strategic initiative;\n* Fourth stage \u2014 the restoration of troops fighting capabilities, of the control system and interaction.\nAt the end of World War Two, those women who had found alternate employment from the normal for women, lost their jobs. The returning soldiers had to be found jobs and many wanted society to return to normal. Therefore by 1939, many young girls found employment in domestic service \u2013 2 million of them, just as had happened in 1914. Wages were still only 25p a week.\nWhen women found employment in the Civil Service, in teaching and in medicine they had to leave when they got married.\nHowever, between the wars, they had got full voting equality with men when in 1928 a law was passed which stated that any person over the age of 21 could vote \u2013 male and female.The war once again gave women the opportunity to show what they could do.\nMajor incidences outlined above called for separate HRM unit in every organization:\nHuman resource management (HRM), or human resource development, entails planning, implementing, and managing recruitment, as well as selection, training, career, and organizational development initiatives within an organization. The goal of HRM is to maximize the productivity of an organization by optimizing the effectiveness of its employees while simultaneously improving the work life of employees and treating employees as valuable resources. Consequently, HRM encompasses efforts to promote personal development, employee satisfaction, and compliance with employment-related laws.\nTo achieve equilibrium between employer and employee goals and needs, HRM departments focus on these three general functions or activities: planning, implementation, and evaluation. The planning function refers to the development of human resource policies and regulations. Human resource managers attempt to determine future HRM activities and plan for the implementation of HRM procedures to help companies realize their goals.\nMaintenance requires structuring labor relations\u2014the interaction between a company\u2019s management and its unionized employees\u2014and ensuring compliance with federal and state employment laws. Finally, the evaluation function includes the assessment of a company\u2019s HRM policies to determine whether they are effective.\nKey principles and practices associated with HRM date back to the beginning of mankind. Mechanisms were developed for the selection of tribal leaders, for example, and knowledge was recorded and passed on to youth about safety, health, hunting, and gathering. More advanced HRM functions were developed as early as 1000 and 2000 B.C. Employee screening tests have been traced back to 1115 B.C. in China, for instance. And the earliest form of industrial education, the apprentice system, was started in ancient Greek and Babylonian civilizations before gaining prominence during medieval times\nBetween the 1880s and the 1940s, immigration rose significantly and remained robust until World War II. Advertisements circulated throughout the world depicting the United States as the land of opportunity where good-paying industrial jobs were plentiful. As a result, the country had a steady stream of low-skill, low-cost immigrant workers who occupied manufacturing, construction, and machinery operation positions. Even though these employees performed largely routine tasks, managers faced serious obstacles when trying to manage them since they spoke different languages.\nBusinesses and organizations rely on three major resources: physical resources, such as materials and equipment; financial resources, including cash, credit, and debt; and human resources or workers. In its broadest sense, HRM refers to the management of all decisions within an organization that are related to people. In practice, however, HRM is a tool used to try to make optimum use of human resources, to foster individual development, and to comply with government mandates. Larger organizations typically have an HRM department and its primary objective is making company goals compatible with employee goals insofar as possible. Hence, for a company to attain its goals, it must have employees who will help it attain them\nAcquisition duties consist of human resource planning for employees, which includes activities related to analyzing employment needs, determining the necessary skills for positions, identifying job and industry trends, and forecasting future employment levels and skill requirements. These tasks may be accomplished using such tools and techniques as questionnaires, interviews, statistical analysis, building skill inventories, and designing career path charts. Four specific goals of effective human resource planning are:\nSustaining stable workforce levels during ups and downs in output, which can reduce unnecessary employment costs and liabilities and increase employee morale that would otherwise suffer in the event of lay-offs.\nPreventing a high turnover rate among younger recruits.\nReducing problems associated with replacing key decision makers in the event of an unexpected absence.\nMaking it possible for financial resource managers to efficiently plan departmental budgets.\nThe second major HRM function, human resource development, refers to performance appraisal and training activities. The basic goal of appraisal is to provide feedback to employees concerning their performance. This feedback allows them to evaluate the appropriateness of their behavior in the eyes of their coworkers and managers, correct weaknesses, and improve their contribution. HRM professionals must devise uniform appraisal standards, develop review techniques, train managers to administer the appraisals, and then evaluate and follow up on the effectiveness of performance reviews. They must also tie the appraisal process into compensation and incentive strategies, and work to ensure that federal regulations are observed.\nEVALUATION OF HRM METHODS:\nOne of the most critical aspects of HRM is evaluating HRM methods and measuring their results. Even the most carefully planned and executed HRM programs are meaningless without some way to judge their effectiveness and confirm their credibility. The evaluation of HRM methods and programs should include both internal and external assessments. Internal evaluations focus on the costs versus the benefits of HRM methods, whereas external evaluations focus on the overall benefits of HRM methods in achieving company goals. Larger human resource departments often use detailed, advanced data gathering and statistical analysis techniques to test the success of their initiatives. The results can then be used to adjust HRM programs or even to make organizational changes.\nThe authors of Human Resources Management posit four factors, the \u201cfour Cs,\u201d that should be used to determine whether or not an HRM department or individual program is succeeding: commitment, competence, cost-effectiveness, and congruence. In testing commitment, the HRM manager asks to what extent do policies enhance the commitment of people to the organization? Commitment is necessary to cultivate loyalty, improve performance, and optimize cooperation among individuals and groups.\nFORCES CHANGING HRM:\nIn the 1990s several forces were shaping the broad field of HRM. The first key force, new technologies\u2014particularly information technology\u2014brought about the decentralization of communications and the shake-up of existing paradigms of human interaction and organizational theory. Satellite communications, computers and networking systems, fax machines, and other devices were facilitating rapid change. Moreover, since these technologies helped blur the lines between work time and personal time by enabling employees to work at home, HRM professionals began adopting \u201cmanagement by objective\u201d approaches to human resources instead of the traditional \u201cmanagement by sight\u201d method.\nA third change factor was accelerating market globalization, which was increasing competition and demanding greater performance out of workers, often at diminished levels of compensation. To compete abroad, companies were looking to their HRM professionals to augment initiatives related to quality, productivity, and innovation. Other factors changing HRM include: an accelerating rate of change and turbulence, resulting in higher employee turnover and the need for more responsive, open-minded workers; rapidly changing demographics; and increasing income disparity as the demand for highly educated workers increases at the expense of lower-wage employees.\nRecruiting and Selecting Staff for International Assignments\nLecture on Employee Rights and HR Communications\nProblems in Effective Selection\nSME Finance Definition\nAre Women are better Parents than Men?\nExplain on Strategic Marketing Alliances\nCyber Crime in Bangladesh at Present Situation\nDefine and Discuss on Circles\nInternational Convention of Biological Diversity\nProject Management for Product Development\nAssignment on SWOT Analysis of Dell\nAssignment on Activities of NGO in Bangladesh",

        "raw_content": "Picture Mask of the Flower Prince The nonsensical ravings of a singing archaeologist. Really.\nA Response to Virginia Hepner | Posted on October 18, 2014\nWhile I was in London, I missed a curious tidbit from the labor dispute between the musicians of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO), and the management of the Woodruff Arts Center (WAC) who have locked them out.\nIn brief, the musicians had raised questions about the actions of WAC Chairman Doug Hertz while he was serving on the Board of Administrators for Tulane University. The musicians noted that Hertz was involved in a series of controversial cost-cutting actions directed against Tulane\u2019s tenured faculty, and compared these actions with his similar cost-cutting plans at the ASO.\nThe curious point is that WAC President Virginia Hepner gave a strongly-worded defense of Hertz\u2019s actions, as well as the actions of the WAC as a whole.\nHer full quote reads:\nThe protracted financial challenges at the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra are very serious and threaten the health of the entire Woodruff Arts Center. The ASO has had 12 years of accumulated deficits, a severe reduction in its endowment and an annual operating gap that we cannot afford to continue. Over the last eight months, ou team has proposed many potential scenarios to the musicians in an attempt to find a solution to the problem. We continue to ask the musicians for constructive ideas to help us address these challenges and we are frustrated that they have turned a deaf ear to the situation. We are saddened that they are attempting to disparage the reputation of Doug Hertz, our chairman. He is widely recognized as one of the most successful and generous leaders in Atlanta and we feel extremely fortunate to have his ongoing support at The Woodruff Arts Center. Our fervent hope is that a federal mediator will bring calm to the protests, picketing and petitions and get us back to meaningful progress at the negotiating table.\nI take great issue with this statement, and want to post a quick rebuttal.",

Julie and I have long loved for the writing, the acting, and the actors. And it is finally appearing on DVD: Seasons 1 and 2 are out, Season 3 is coming in November, and we hope for Seasons 4 and 5 soon after.\n#31230 - 09/19/16 09:03 PM Re: Television 2016 [Re: Jon]\nYou know, I remember scenes from that show very vividly, but not entire episodes. I've blanked out the plots, even though I didn't miss an episode.\nTatiana Malasny has finally won an Emmy for Orphan Black. She's saying in the upcoming final season not all the clones will meet a happy ending. She even used the word \"tragic\".\nI'm very much enjoying a British series, just released here on Netflix, titled The Crown, about Elizabeth II. There are 10 episodes, and apparently there's a plan to continue it in future year, pretty much up to the present day. But the early days are what I'm most interested in, and I tend to enjoy shows that take us \"behind the scenes\" into the gritty details of how unfamiliar institutions work. The first scene is Philip renouncing other national and royal identities so that the marriage can happen. I've watched through Episode 3, at which point she has succeeded to the crown but the coronation is a year away, and she has just made two big, heartbreaking concessions to Parliament: that Windsor will remain the family name despite her marriage, and that she and her family will leave the house they have so lovingly refurbished and move into Buckingham Palace.\nThe cast includes Claire Foy as Elizabeth, Matt Smith as Prince Philip, Vanessa Kirby as Princess Margaret (we're already seeing her dally with Peter Townsend, played by a favorite of mine, Ben Miles), Eileen Atkins as the grandmother Queen Mary, Jeremy Northam as Anthony Eden, Victoria Hamilton as The Queen Mother. Jared Harris was King George VI, and surprisingly but effectively, John Lithgow is Winston Churchill.",

        "raw_content": "Not All Heat Is Created Equal. Why Infrared Heat May Be Your Hair's Best Friend.\n@twolala1\nI already have several flat irons in my arsenal. But yesterday I made the last minute decision to purchase yet another one. This new flat iron will come into my life because it's quite different from everything else I own.\nFor one, this is new iron is 2 inches in width. I'm hoping this cuts my flat ironing time in half. The biggest draw that made me click the purchase button is that this iron has infrared technology. I'm a huge fan of infrared in haircare. Years ago, I picked up the Jose Eber infrared iron. Basically, it uses infrared technology to boost the effectiveness of your favorite conditioning products. The conditioning tool works great. But, to be honest, I really don't use it enough.\nSpring is fast approaching. Soon, I'll be dealing with excessive humidity and frizz. I'm looking for something to help seal my cuticle layer. An infrared flat iron may be just the thing I need. I sincerely hope that the combination of ceramic plates, infrared light, and the right heat protectant can seal my strands without causing too much damage.\nI'm crossing my fingers in hopes that a flat iron with infrared capabilities will give my hair that slight edge.\nWhile researching, I also learned about the existence of infrared hair dryers. Many of them are referred to as hair processors (used during a coloring treatment). I'm not fully certain if they actually have the ability to completely dry the hair or if they simply enhance the coloring process by allowing the color to penetrate deeper. Even if it doesn't fully dry the hair. It seems like a viable option for a \"deeper\" deep conditioning session. Infrared uses an inside-out approach which allows the hair to heat evenly. Basically, it breaks apart the water molecules on the surface of the hair for fast absorption into the strand. The end result is softer, more manageable hair.\nI'm not gonna lie, I want one. Or, at the very least, I want to experience it. I've got my eye on a handheld infrared dryer but I rarely blow dry so one of those infrared processing dryers would be ideal. If I find out that they actually can dry the hair in a healthier way, I'll definitely have one before the year ends.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Avoidance is not failure | Main | Episode 30 Fitness Behavior - We are about to go deep \u00bb\nHuman excellence in the Marathon\nOn Sunday the 2nd of June the Christchurch Airport Marathon is going to see more than 5000 people strive to get to the finish line in the biggest running event in Christchurch. There will be young kids giving it a go in the Kids Mara\u2019Fun, the 10k walkers and runners, the Half Marathon runners and those crazy people who choose to participate in that magical marathon distance of 42.195km. The Christchurch Airport Marathon is such a great event for our city as it gets all levels of exercisers out there giving it a go.\nToday I thought I would try to give you a perspective on what the top athletes will be feeling as they prepare and line up for their race. These are the athletes who are striving for a place on the podium, to beat the course records and who are trying to be first across the finish line.\nThere\u2019s something about human excellence which appeals to me. I think it\u2019s a privilege to see high achievers do what they do best. One of the downfalls of watching high achievers in sport is that we usually see them when they are surrounded by other high achievers. This can dilute our ability to understand their greatness. I always think that they should have a lane at the Olympic running track events for a really good local athlete, that person in your local area who you consider to be an amazing runner. Put that person up against the elite athletes in an Olympics race and they would be out of sight in seconds. This would give perspective on athletic excellence.\nIf we have a look at the current male world Marathon record we see that Patrick Makau of Kenya holds it in a time of 2:03:38, even as I write this, this time blows my mind away. Let me try and put this into perspective. Imagine you go to the gym and do a warm up on the treadmill, after your 5 minute warm up you programme the treadmill onto the speed of 20km, you jump on and see how long you can hold that pace. I would estimate that probably 70-90% of the population would be lucky to last a few seconds at that speed, they would be sprinting their fastest and holding on for dear life to hold this pace. I\u2019m considered to be a really fit guy and I think I would be pushing it to hold on for somewhere between 3-5mins. Patrick Makau actually goes slightly faster than that for just over two hours! He sat on a 2:56km pace for that whole race, it\u2019s phenomenal.\nIf we look at the female world record, Paula Radcliffe from the UK has done a 2:15:25 at a 3:12km pace. Once again my mind is blown away. The treadmill speed for you to try to beat is 18:75km. These athletes show us what human excellence is and they have tested their physical and mental selves to levels that 99% of us could never even understand. It\u2019s an impressive thing to see.\nWhile we probably won\u2019t see a world record time at the Christchurch Airport Marathon we will see some impressive top runners looking for that rare \u2018perfect day\u2019 performance that all athletes dream of. These guys and girls will be fast!\nOne of the special things about the Marathon is that the every day athlete can be out there competing and participating in the same race as the professionals. If you think about it, there aren\u2019t many sports where the everyday athlete gets to be in the same event as the elite in that sport. We don\u2019t get to tackle the All Blacks or try to block one of the basketball Breakers as they drive to the hoop in an important game. When you stand on the start line at the Christchurch Airport Marathon, you will be surrounded by some of the top runners in New Zealand and while you may not be able to experience what it\u2019s like to run at their speed, you will be sharing a challenging day where all of you are hoping to do your best.\nSo well done to everyone who has signed up to this iconic Christchurch sporting event, there will be some tough moments but when you see that finish line you will experience that amazing feeling that comes from taking on a great challenge.",

        "title": "Diseases and Conditions: Why Worry about High Cholesterol?",
        "raw_content": "Diseases and Conditions: Why Worry about High Cholesterol?\nConditions > Diseases and Conditions: Why Worry about High Cholesterol?\nCardiovascular disease exists in 64.4 million Americans, according to the American Heart Association. Coronary heart disease is caused by arteriosclerosis. That\u2019s a big word that basically refers to the thickening or hardening of the coronary arteries. When a person develops arteriosclerosis, he or she is at serious risk for angina pectoris, heart attack or both. Cholesterol is one of the factors physicians consider in determining your risk for heart disease.\nIf you have been concerned about cholesterol, you have probably heard about the two most common types of cholesterol: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Do you know which type of cholesterol is good and which is considered bad for you?\nLDL cholesterol is considered unhealthy. When too much of this kind of cholesterol gets in the blood stream, it can build up on the inner walls of the arteries. Those arteries feed the heart and brain. LDL cholesterol gangs up on your arteries with other substances to develop plaque. Thick, hard deposits of plaque can clog arteries. When that happens, the condition is called atherosclerosis. If a clot blocks a narrowed artery, the result can be a heart attack or stroke.\nHealth care providers monitor the amount of HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in the blood to determine your risk of having a heart attack. LDL cholesterol should be below 100 mg/dL for optimal health. A high LDL level of more than 160 mg/dL means you have an increased risk of heart disease. If you have other risk factors for cardiovascular disease, 130 mg/dL is too high.\nHigh-Density Lipoprotein Wears the White Hat in this Story\nIf cholesterol were in a western movie, LDL cholesterol would wear the black hat and HDL cholesterol would wear the white hat for the positive role it plays in fighting against heart attacks.\nAbout one-third to one-fourth of blood cholesterol is carried by high-density lipoprotein (HDL). HDL cholesterol seems to protect the body against heart attacks, according to the American Heart Association. Whereas people should look for low levels of LDL, high levels of HDL are desired for better health. Scientists believe HDL carries cholesterol out of the arteries and back into the liver so the body can eliminate it as waste. Some scientists believe HDL removes extra cholesterol from plaque in arteries so it doesn\u2019t build up as fast.\nIf you are going to watch your cholesterol levels, you should study up on the factors that can help and hurt you. High levels of what is known as Lp(a), a genetic variation of plasma LDL is an important risk factor for developing fatty deposits in arteries. Scientists don\u2019t completely understand exactly how Lp(a) contributes. They do know that lesions in artery walls contain ingredients that might interact with Lp(a)and together they lead to the buildup of fatty deposits.\nOften times when people have heart disease, they also have high levels of triglycerides. Triglyceride is fat and it comes from food. Your body makes triglyceride. People with diabetes or who are obese usually have high triglycerides too. Normally people have triglyceride levels of less than 150 mg/dL. Levels of 150-199 are borderline high. If your triglyceride levels are 200 mg/dL to 499 mg/dL, you are at risk and might need treatment from a physician.",

        "raw_content": "How about interracial marriage?\nIntroduction. As you know, we biblically address all questions. The Bible teaches us about marriage. God himself is the author of marriage (Gen. 2: 18-25). The original truths pertaining to marriage are applicable today (see Eph. 5: 22-33, Matt. 19: 3-9). \"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled...\" wrote the Hebrew writer (Heb. 13: 4).\nGod forbids certain marriages. Under the Jewish economy, the Jew was forbidden to marry outside the Jewish race (1 Kings 11: 1-8). Those who practiced interracial marriage were to \"divorce\" their wives (Ezra 10, we are not under the Jewish system, Col. 2: 14, 2 Cor. 3). God's law today forbids marrying a \"put away person\" (Matt. 19: 9).\nMarriage should be as compatible as possible. There are many social, educational, religious, and cultural differences among people. The ideal situation is for Christians to marry Christians. They, then, have the same values, goals, and beliefs. In such marriages there should be basic agreement regarding money, recreation, and child rearing (see 1 Pet. 3: 7). Racial and cultural differences can contribute to unhappy and failed marriages. One should not only consider the immediate benefits and dangers of any marriage, but how such a union could impact the offspring.\nDoes the Bible teach it is a sin for a person to marry outside of their own race or culture? No! However, as with any marriage, one should carefully consider the consequences of such a marriage depending on their culture. The more in favor regarding a marriage, the more successful the marriage is likely to be. Marriage is for life and must be seriously viewed (Matt. 19: 3-9).",

        "raw_content": "The Washington D.C. Supreme Court is currently looking at a case that will define whether or not the victims of child pornography offenses can recover money from those who watched the abuse online on pornographic websites. The ruling will mean big changes for both victims and suspects.\nThose that are arrested for viewing or possession of child pornography may have to pay exorbitant fines and fees to those that were emotionally damaged after they were exposed online. The justices have agreed to review a question that has divided lower courts in the past. The question is this: must there be a link between the crime of viewing child pornography and the victim's injuries before a victim can receive restitution from an offender? Some say that the prosecution must prove that the suspect was responsible for the injuries that the victim suffered before that victim can seek compensation.\nThe argument began when a victim of a child pornography stunt sought financial payments from a Texas resident who pleaded guilty to possessing between 150 and 300 images of child pornography on his computer. The victim is seeking about $3.3 million after being exposed on the website. The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals examined the case last year and said that victims don't have to show a link between the crime and their injuries in order to receive compensation.\nThe victim says that she was sexually abused by her uncle and photographs of the abuse ended up on child pornography websites all over the internet. Since then, she has been collecting restitution from those who viewed the images. If you are accused of child pornography, the Supreme Court's decision may change your sentence by making it difficult for you to repay the victims after you viewed images of them. Talk to a Pittsburgh criminal defense attorney today to learn how this Supreme Court case may affect your sex crimes case!\nCategories: criminal defense, Prostitution",

The album, recorded and mixed at Brickwall Sound in Concord, California, showcases 10 originals and unique covers of a wide assortment of blues styles.\nDelta Wires will celebrate the release of Born in Oakland with two special \u201cAlbum Debut\u201d performances on Friday, June 30, at San Francisco\u2019s Biscuits & Blues (voted America\u2019s #1 blues club by the Blues Foundation), with shows at 7:30 pm and 10:00 pm. For more info, visit http://www.biscuitsandblues.com/. On June 23, Delta Wires will also play the kick-off to the Fountain Blues Festival at San Pedro Square Market Place in downtown San Jose at 7:00 pm.\nA living history of the San Francisco West Coast blues, Delta Wires was truly born in Oakland over 30 years ago. The band started as band leader Ernie Pinata's college project demonstrating the evolution of the blues from the cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta, to Chicago and ultimately, to the West Coast. The small band Ernie put together to play examples of this evolution grew into the high-powered seven-piece band that now calls itself Delta Wires. The band started by playing clubs in Oakland such as Esther's Orbit Room and The Continental Club. Around this same time, legendary bluesman Lowell Fulson sat-in with Delta Wires at the New Orleans House in Berkeley and Ernie Pinata sat-in with the Freddie King Band at Mandrake\u2019s in Berkeley. These were followed by a performance with Buddy Guy and Junior Wells at Keystone Berkeley. The Delta Wires then began to open shows for these blues greats, and continued to grow as musicians and as a band.\nBorn in Oakland, their seventh album, demonstrates a further maturation of the group\u2019s West Coast blues style, influenced by the ups and downs of city life - and of life, itself. It\u2019s a sound that is truly original and un-typical of what fans might expect from a \u201cblues band.\u201d Both high-energy and moody, with intricate horn arrangements and harmonies, Delta Wires is justifiably proud of what it has accomplished, which includes being voted best band by the East Bay Express and Oakland Magazine, and being inducted into the California Blues Hall of Fame.\nAdditional Delta Wires Shows\nArmando\u2019s - 8:00pm - 10:00pm, 707 Marina Vista - Martinez, CA\nUmbria Jazz Festival - Perugia, Italy\nOakland Museum of California - Friday Nights @ OMCA - 7:00pm - 9:00pm \u2013 Oakland, CA\nPoint Richmond Music Series - 5:30pm - 6:30pm - Richmond, CA\nChouinard Vineyards Music Series - 4:30pm - 8:30pm - Under the trees - Castro Valley, CA\nCapitola Twilight Concerts - 6:00pm - 8:00pm - Esplanade Park, Capitola, CA\n\u201cAlbum Release Party\u201d \u2013 The Uptown Nightclub - 8:30pm - Oakland, CA 94612\nwww.deltawires.com\nLabels: Born In Oakland, Delta Wires, Mudslide records",

Since the gallery\u2019s first introduction of Zhang Wei\u2019s works spanning nearly the last four decades in \u201cZhang Wei: The Abstract Paintings 1979-2012\u201d, his practice of abstraction reemerged and gained worldwide recognition in the context of modern and contemporary Chinese art.\n\u201cZhang Wei: New Paintings\u201d comprises of a selection of the artist\u2019s most recent works on canvas, in which he explores the most extended possibility of contemporary, global painting. Both Western andChinese painting are brought together in a manner that signifies the unique approach of this artist. Throughout this exhibition, archival materials documenting the development of Zhang Wei\u2019s artistic practice, as well as contextual information of the transitional period from social and political unrest the search of modernity will be shown.\nZhang Wei (b.1952), who is one of the first abstract painters in China today, desire for spiritual freedom to be manifested through his artistic expressions. Since the early 1970s, without having access to a formal art education, he painted still objects or en-plein-air with the older members of an artists\u2019 collective that later became known as the No Name Group (WumingHuahui). His lyrical and colorful paintings of still objects or landscapes filled with beauty resisted not only as a lifestyle, but the dominance of propagandistic visual environment of the Cultural Revolution. Yet, unsatisfied with his own practice, Zhang Wei felt the need to respond to his own calling to search for artistic freedom. As China opened up culturally and economically, the influx of visual resources such as the works of Jackson Pollock and the meeting with Robert Rauschenberg had amajor impact on Zhang Wei, that allowed him to steer towards \u201caction painting\u201d, a form of painting that directly translates the artist\u2019s individuality through engaging spontaneity and physical energy in approximating the image of the mind. It was productive period that marked Zhang Wei\u2019s beginning in the making works on canvas that were unconventional, non-realistic and non-representational.\nIn his new paintings which will be on view in Boers-Li Gallery, Zhang Wei progressed through these stages of experimentations and innovations. Enriched by his cross-cultural experience for having lived in the U.S. for nearly two decades, the resettlement back to Beijing in 2005, bridges Zhang Wei\u2019s understanding of the Western masters of abstraction and reverence for his own cultural tradition. His work draws references from painters such as Qi Baishi, Xu Wei among others, which are then integrated with his personal experiences onto the canvas through free gestural brushworks that demands physical energy. Within these works, the uses unconventional palette of vibrant colores to guide the brush achieving free movements, and utilizes his whole body to permeate onto abstract canvas, showing spaces created by multiple layers as well as blank spaces. For Zhang Wei, the canvas is deliberately considered as a three-dimensional space, where he is not afraid to venture beyond oil, paint and the brush by engaging different mediums and subject references.\nZhang Wei\u2019s works are widely exhibited internationally. In particular, his early abstract paintings from the late 70s, marking the rise of modern contemporary Chinese art, were recently exhibited \u201c40 Years of Contemporary Chinese Art\u201d from the M+ UliSigg Collection in Hong Kong. Equally, his works are collected by renowned international art institutions, such as the M+, Museum for Visual Culture of the West Kowloon Cultural District, Hong Kong, the Chicago Art Institute, USA, \u2026 and various prestigious private collections worldwide.",

The stake is high because exchange rate policy has profound impact on current and future macroeconomic performance.\nThis book is a modest attempt to highlight the above contention from a broad perspective for the emerging market economy of Bangladesh. The work is a research-based book, comprising a number of self-contained and interrelated essays on policy-oriented issues in exchange rate economics.\nDr. Hossain discusses a number of key issues in currency devaluation with data from Bangladesh and develops a macroeconomic model along the lines of the tradable-nontradable goods approach to international macroeconomics. He analyses the movement of both the real exchange rate and trade balance in Bangladesh since the early 1970s.\nThe author also makes an in-depth study of two politically-sensitive economic issues, viz. the economic and political events that led to the 1974 Bangladesh famine and Bangladesh\u2019s large and growing trade deficits with India since the late-1980s.\nThe concluding chapter reflects on dynamics of Bangladesh\u2019s politics and the present state of economic and political institutions that support economic reforms and the process of macroeconomic policymaking.\nStudents of economics, policymakers and researchers on macroeconomic issues in developing countries and in Bangladesh will find this book useful.\nAkhtar Hossain is a Senior Lecturer in Economics at the University of Newcastle, Australia. Currently he is working at the IMF-Singapore Regional Training Institute as International Economist. He has earned M.A. (1984) and Ph.D. (1989) degrees in Economics from the University of Melbourne and La Trobe University, respectively, Australia. For his Ph.D. research, he was awarded the 1989 La Trobe University Medal.\nDr. Hossain has specialised in teaching and research in monetary and financial economics with a focus on Asian developing economics in general and the Bangladesh economy in particular. He is the author/co-author of six books, more than 30 research articles in journals and 10 chapters in edited volumes.

        "raw_content": "MANGA REVIEW | \"Imperfect Girl\" - Volume 2\nThe first volume of Mitsuru Hattori's manga adaptation of NISIOISIN's Imperfect Girl got off on a rocky start, with the unnamed protagonist (known here as \"I\") locked in the closet belonging to a strange elementary school student named \"U.\" Told via an autobiographical means, the story presented a strange take on what it would take for an amateur to unlock a more professional level of creativity. Volume Two of Imperfect Girl dives deeper into who's and why's of I and U, as the reasons behind the troubled child's mannerisms slowly begin to sludge through.\nI finds a way out of his prison, only for him to each day return to it before U gets home from school. Via snooping around her house, she starts to piece together many aspects of the mystery that surrounds him. Why U's parents have yet to come home, how she takes care of herself in their absence, and how she was able survive for so long. Slipping into a Stockholm Syndrome-styled mentality, I realizes that he can't leave until he uncovers the truth behind U's current living status.\nIt's in this second volume where Imperfect Girl finds its footing. Where the first one kind of stumbled due to a bigger focus on building the world of I and U, here we dive into a much deeper character analysis of the mysterious girl. Even when in school, it appears that she keeps to herself, much to the worriment of her teachers. A look into a display of fossilized fish is when U discovers a feeling that has been kept locked within her since the story began. The question, though, is whether or not the bond between U and the fish seem to represent a feeling of suffocation in a place where they don't belong, or if it's a means of showcasing a guilt for letting a living creature like I to be left on his lonesome to possibly wither & die in the closet.\nWhatever it may be, U seems to have a change in attitude right afterwards. She begins to interact more with her prisoner, eat with him, and even does some grocery shopping for his sake. Although I is aware that this game she's playing has to end sometime soon, he knows that leaving her on her own is not an option he in good conscience can do. The feeling of guilt between I and U is the main focal point of Volume Two, with the two pushing one another mentally to see which one gives in to their flaws.\nAfter a somewhat shaky start, Imperfect Girl is shaping to be a very good character study. Even with its jagged edges, Hattori's take on NISIOISIN's original novel has many brow-raising moments that will have you glued to each page. However it may end in the final volume remains to be seen, but one thing's for certain: a bumpy road lies ahead for U and I, and this reviewer look forward to seeing where it takes them.",

It was there he met Cornelia, a new arrival to Canada from the Netherlands, where he helped her gain confidence in her new surroundings.\nThrough dedication, hard work and very long hours, the pair became extremely successful entrepreneurs. In addition to his personal achievements, Chris was most proud of and dedicated to his family. Known as Dedo Risto, he supported and often visited his family in Macedonia.\nHis values of hard work, honesty and integrity were instilled upon his children who have gone on to enjoy successful careers. Chris loved all things living. He kept his garden in immaculate condition. He was proud of his tomatoes, which he grew in great quantities and shared with friends and family. He was also devoted to his pet cockatiel, Coco, who will surely miss riding on Chris' shoulder.\nThe family would like to express their deep gratitude to the staff at Markham Stouffville Hospital for their tireless care.\nVery special thanks and our gratitude to Vins, Yuki and Meli for their kind support which allowed Chris to stay in his home.\nFriends may call on Heritage Funeral Centre, 50 Overlea Blvd., on Wednesday, July 11th from 4:30-7:00 p.m. A service will take place at 6:00 p.m.",

        "raw_content": "Barfield Clean Up With Peugeot Expert\nBarfield Air and Water Treatments has taken delivery of two Peugeot Expert vans, the first of a number expected to be taken this year. The company has over 20 years experience in providing clients with a portfolio of water treatment services and operates nationally from offices in both Surrey and Manchester.\nBarfield cleans, disinfects and sterilises water storage tanks and their associated services. It also cleans the insides of industrial heating and cooling systems. Additionally, it uses chemicals to provide scale and corrosion protection. Therefore it requires vehicles that are capable of transporting various pieces of bulky and specialist equipment, such as hoses, pumps and aqua vac machines.\nIain Barton, director, at Barfield Water Treatments says: \"The Expert has a good payload, is a suitable height and its sliding doors on both sides and rear access make it the perfect vehicle to make our job easier. Previously we had used larger Transit sized vans, which often had a lot of head room that we didn\u2019t require. Their height could in fact be restrictive in some cases, such as when trying to get into certain car parks.\"\nThe deal with Peugeot is expected to be long term, as the company may eventually replace its entire fleet with Expert vans. Barfield has opted for the economical 1.9 diesel engined vans, which produce 71 bhp at 4,600 rpm and 170 lb.ft of torque at 2,500 rpm.\nThe vans are being supplied by Peugeot\u2019s dealership, Sidlow Garage in Reigate, Surrey.\nThe information contained this Peugeot news article may have changed since publication on the 21 April 2003.

        "raw_content": "Where To Get Good Mechanical Engineering Homework Solutions\nYou do have many options when looking for help for mechanical engineering. Not all of them are equal in quality. Great help needs to fit into a couple of different criteria. You want them to be knowledgeable in the field. You want to have access to solutions that will fit into your busy schedule. You will want it to fit within a budget that you set for yourself. Once you have established that these criteria are met, you will want to look into several different solution options.\nOnline mechanical engineering tutoring can include live chats with an individual that can meet with you on your schedule. You can also find some that have a place where you can email a question when you have it, and they will email you the solutions available.\nOffline tutors can usually meet with you in a public place. You can get one on one tutoring where you can take your paper with you, and they will walk you through what you need to know.\nStudy groups are usually a less expensive option. You will find that meeting with a group of your peers can give you new ways to look at the problem. Talk to your school resource department to find if there are any mechanical engineering meetings in your area. If you cannot find one close, you may be able to find an online option.\nYour library, either in your school or in your neighborhood, can offer you books or research papers on mechanical engineering that you may not be able to access online. You will see how others worked through the problems and find the solutions on your own. You will be able to deepen your understanding with a little dedication to learning procedures.\nIf you are choosing to go with a tutor, you will need to find out if you will have references from their prior students. You will want to make sure that they know the field well and that they know how to show others how to find solutions. You do not want to walk away from a tutoring session more confused than before you went. There is no reason for you to hesitate in getting the help that you need. Your future depends on you finding solutions for your mechanical engineering needs. Focus on reliable places that you can see their background, rather than something that just sounds good. You will be glad that you did.",

        "raw_content": "Home Teva Announces FDA Approval of AUSTEDO\u2122 (deutetrabenazine) Tablets for the Treatment of Chorea Associated with Huntington\u2019s Disease\nJERUSALEM\u2013(BUSINESS WIRE)\u2013Apr. 3, 2017\u2013 Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved AUSTEDO\u2122 (deutetrabenazine) tablets for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington\u2019s disease (HD). Previously referred to by the developmental name SD-809, AUSTEDOTM is the first deuterated product approved by the FDA and only the second product approved in HD. The product was previously granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA.\nA rare and fatal neurodegenerative disorder, HD affects more than 35,000 people in the United States. Chorea \u2013 involuntary, random and sudden, twisting and/or writhing movements \u2013 is one of the most striking physical manifestations of this disease and occurs in approximately 90% of patients. \u201cChorea is a major symptom for many living with Huntington disease. It impacts patients\u2019 functionality and activities of daily living, and there have been limited treatment options for these patients,\u201d said Michael Hayden, M.D., Ph.D., President of Global R&D and Chief Scientific Officer at Teva. \u201cBased on the results demonstrated in the clinical development program which supported the approval of AUSTEDO\u2122 and our ongoing commitment to patients, we feel uniquely positioned to bring this treatment option forward.\u201d\nThe FDA approval was based on results from a Phase III randomized, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy of AUSTEDO\u2122 in reducing chorea in patients with HD (First-HD).\n\u201cAt Teva, we have a long history of establishing comprehensive disease management programs in chronic disease areas. We have highly skilled teams experienced in building relationships with patients, their care partners and healthcare professionals,\u201d said Rob Koremans, MD, President and CEO of Global Specialty Medicines at Teva. \u201cBringing a new treatment forward where the unmet need is so significant is an inspiring opportunity. Our commercial and medical organizations are well prepared to make this important treatment available to the HD community.\u201d\n\u201cChorea associated with Huntington\u2019s disease has a significant impact on those living with the disease and their families,\u201d said Louise Vetter, Chief Executive Officer of the Huntington\u2019s Disease Society of America. \u201cThe FDA\u2019s approval of AUSTEDO\u2122 represents an important new treatment option for people with HD and highlights the need for more therapeutic resources for this underserved patient community.\u201d\nTeva\u2019s Shared Solutions\u00ae is a free service to provide support to patients starting or taking AUSTEDOTM at 1-800-887-8100. Resources include nursing support, disease education, and financial assistance programs. AUSTEDOTM is expected to be available in the U.S. within the next 3 weeks.\nAbout AUSTEDOTM\nAUSTEDOTM is indicated for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington\u2019s disease.\nThe efficacy of AUSTEDOTM as a treatment for chorea associated with Huntington\u2019s disease was established in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial conducted in 90 ambulatory patients with manifest chorea associated with Huntington\u2019s disease. Total Maximal Chorea Scores for patients receiving AUSTEDOTM improved by approximately 4.4 units from baseline to the maintenance period (average of Week 9 and Week 12), compared to approximately 1.9 units in the placebo group. The treatment effect of -2.5 units was statistically significant (p<0.0001). The Maintenance Endpoint is the mean of the Total Maximal Chorea Scores for the Week 9 and Week 12 visits. At the Week 13 follow-up visit (1 week after discontinuation of the study medication), the Total Maximal Chorea Scores of patients who had received AUSTEDOTM returned to baseline.\nWARNING: DEPRESSION AND SUICIDALITY. AUSTEDOTM can increase the risk of depression and suicidal thoughts and behavior (suicidality) in patients with Huntington\u2019s disease. Anyone considering the use of AUSTEDOTM must balance the risks of depression and suicidality with the clinical need for treatment of chorea. AUSTEDOTM is contraindicated in patients who are suicidal, and in patients with untreated or inadequately treated depression.\nAUSTEDOTM is also contraindicated in: patients with hepatic impairment; patients taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), or within 14 days of discontinuing MAOI therapy; patients taking reserpine or within 20 days of discontinuing reserpine; and patients taking tetrabenazine (XENAZINE\u00ae).\nVMAT2 inhibitors, including AUSTEDOTM, may cause a worsening in mood, cognition, rigidity, and functional capacity. Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome has been observed in patients receiving tetrabenazine (a closely related VMAT2 inhibitor). AUSTEDOTM may increase the risk of akathisia, agitation, and restlessness and may cause parkinsonism in patients with Huntington\u2019s disease. Sedation is a common dose-limiting adverse reaction of AUSTEDOTM.\nTetrabenazine causes an increase in the corrected QT (QTc) interval. A clinically relevant QT prolongation may occur in some patients treated with AUSTEDOTM who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers or are co-administered a strong CYP2D6 inhibitor. Tetrabenazine elevates serum prolactin concentrations in humans.\nSince deutetrabenazine or its metabolites bind to melanin-containing tissues, it could accumulate in these tissues over time. The most common adverse reactions (>8% of AUSTEDOTM-treated patients and greater than placebo) in a controlled clinical study were: somnolence, diarrhea, dry mouth, and fatigue.\nTeva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.

If your child is suspected of having active tuberculosis (usually tuberculous pneumonia), he will probably be hospitalized and begin treatment with several anti-tuberculosis antibiotics. The Department of Public Health is notified and arrangements are made for them to oversee medication administration after your child leaves the hospital.\nActive TB patients\nIf your child has active TB, once he is allowed to go home, he will be followed by doctors in our outpatient clinic through monthly appointments with our doctors and nurses.\nInactive TB patients\nIf your child has been infected with tuberculosis but does not have the active form of the disease, he is considered an inactive TB patient. He will be treated with an oral antibiotic for nine months and followed monthly by a clinic nurse until he has finished his course of treatment. This helps prevent your child\u2019s TB infection from turning into the active form of the disease.\nAt clinic appointments, we give your family and child extensive education about tuberculosis.

        "title": "Christian Democracy: What Changed My Mind on the Individual Mandate",
        "raw_content": "What Changed My Mind on the Individual Mandate\nThe death of the GOP\u2019s quixotic attempt at an Obamacare replacement is surely cause for some relief, not only for Democrats but, more importantly, for all those whose health care would have been genuinely at risk, as well as the growing number of professional organizations publicly expressing alarm at a bill that seemed designed to gut the parts of the Affordable Care Act that were actually doing some good rather than amending its flaws. Indeed, the very idea that the ACA needs amending has long been buried beneath the polemic between those seeking to either repeal or defend it at all costs. Now that it remains in place \u201cfor the foreseeable future,\u201d the tone of the polemic appears to be shifting only slightly, with defenders still blindly refusing to admit to any problems with it, and detractors hoping to wait out (and urge on) its self-destruction just for the chance to say \u201ctold you so.\u201d\nWith a view to reviving nonpartisan examination of what is both right and wrong with the ACA, I offer here my own critical reflection on one aspect of it that I myself have come to rethink \u2013 not from the perspective of a policy wonk or an insurance expert, of which I am neither, but that of a language service provider who has had occasion to witness a sampling of particular situations in which the positive and negative effects of the ACA are manifest. Working as a telephonic interpreter, I have gone through countless applications to the federal health insurance Marketplace, as well as phone calls to various insurance companies from US nationals (naturalized citizens and green card holders in this context) with limited English proficiency. In a health care system that can be difficult to navigate even in one\u2019s native language and culture, the need to do so with the help of interpreters and translated materials only adds to the complications that many have faced when trying to sign up for \u2013 or keep \u2013 health insurance.\nOne of the ACA\u2019s more controversial points has been its \u201cindividual mandate\u201d requiring individuals to purchase health insurance or pay a penalty on their tax returns. Defenders of the mandate argue that those with the health and financial means to have less immediate need of health care have a responsibility to pay into the insurance market in order to keep the cost affordable for those who need it most. I\u2019ve generally found this point persuasive, and I cannot agree with objections based merely on personal choice, as if anyone\u2019s choice were worth more than anyone\u2019s life. At the same time, lost in the debate between individual choice and the common good are the many people who fall through the cracks within a deeply flawed system. Having been largely convinced of the merits of the mandate as a step toward universal health care, observing multiple instances of people being failed by the system has given me pause.\nMany cases I\u2019ve heard confirm the reports of skyrocketing costs. In some of these cases it is the insurance companies raising premiums, sometimes without warning, which can be devastating for someone living paycheck to paycheck. But the premiums themselves are not the only culprit. Often, people may unexpectedly lose the tax credits they had received through ACA subsidies, for a number of reasons. One of the most frequent reasons is documents not ending up in the right place, which happens disturbingly easily if any detail is off, as I\u2019ve heard in a surprising number of conversations about documents being resent and re-requested multiple times.\nIn other cases, people may experience what in Obamacare\u2019s parlance is termed a \u201cqualifying life event\u201d \u2013 for example, a change in one\u2019s state of residence, income, family size, or marital status, which would qualify them for a special enrollment period to purchase insurance outside of the designated \u201copen enrollment\u201d \u2013 without knowing that they have a limited time frame after the change occurs in which to do so. Some people have simply made do with hospital sliding-scale payment systems, which allow them to get the care they need, only to discover that they still don\u2019t meet the insurance requirement. In the above situations, the lack of adequate and timely information, including frequent lapses in communication and responsibility between the Marketplace and insurance companies, appears to be a widespread problem in general, which of course is only exacerbated when there is a language barrier.\nStill others simply find themselves in an awkward gap in which, between their actual incomes and living expenses, rising premiums, and the mysterious machinations of the Marketplace\u2019s tax credit calculus, they still end up without any insurance options they can actually afford \u2013 and are penalized for it. The system ends up being especially punitive toward people who are legally married but separated from their spouses, whether due to estrangement or practical necessity. People in these situations often find themselves in a double bind, since they are disqualified from receiving a tax credit if they don\u2019t file taxes jointly but may still qualify to purchase insurance they can\u2019t afford, leaving them fined as well as uninsured.\nTo complicate matters further, in states where legislators have chosen not to expand Medicare and Medicaid services, people who qualify for low-cost insurance they can\u2019t receive are exempt from the fine, but still left without insurance. This latter situation is of course the fault of state-level politics rather than the individual mandate, which only further demonstrates the very concrete ramifications of the political tug-of-war that health care in America has become.\nThe real problem with the individual mandate is not that it \u201cforces\u201d health insurance on those in a position to choose not to buy it, but that it too easily ends up hurting those who have difficulty affording insurance \u2013 the very people the mandate was supposedly meant to protect.\nJulia Smucker writes for Vox Nova.",

        "title": "Advice for Paying Off Your Student Loans",
        "raw_content": "by J. Riggs\n(Columbia, CA USA)\nChef graduate 2011\nPay It Off!\nWhew! You made it, you have your degree. Congratulations! Now comes the hard part (yes, harder than getting the degree), striking out on your own and finding a job, and oh yeah, paying off your student loans . I\u2019d like to say loan, but in order for my son to finish his degree at the Culinary Institute of America, Hyde Park, he had to take out three loans. The total: $65,000.00. Yes, an almost surreal amount of money, isn\u2019t it? But so worth it. We are proud of our son. He had obstacles to overcome, but he persevered, he was dedicated, and he never wavered from his goal. We have a chef in the family!\nNow, time to get back to \u201cthe pay off.\u201d We definitely learned all about negotiating the labyrinth of scholarships, grants and loan applications, public and private financial aid programs, and college aid packages. Now that our son has graduated, we can honestly say there is one word that distinguishes those people who pay back their student loans in a timely and relatively pain free manner, and those people who seem to pay forever: preparation. So, here are some important things you should consider before the loan officer starts making calls twice a day.\nThe year (yes, I mean a full year) before graduation, start sending out resumes. Be flexible in your job search, it is more important to get out of debt sooner rather than later, and if that means taking employment in a company that initially was on your \u201cB\u201d\nlist, not your \u201cA\u201d list, don\u2019t get sweaty about it, be pragmatic. You will land the job of your dreams, in time. However, the first thing to do is get a handle on your debt by paying off your student loans in order to get out of debt fast and get that cash flow going. Remember to network, find job search websites, connect to LinkedIn, and set up your vita with them. Also, if you have a Stafford Guaranteed Federal Student Loan, you can, under certain circumstances, obtain a postponement of the date when you have to start paying it back.\nTry to get ahead of the interest on your loan. ALWAYS pay more than the minimum due each month, it really is amazing how that shrinks the total loan amount. Even if you have your student loans for years, by proving that you are serious about paying them in a timely and responsible manner, your credit rating will reflect that. As surprising as it might sound, handled correctly, even debt can help you with other major purchases like that new car you\u2019ve had your eye on. Again, congratulations and good luck!\nRead more advice on from other students and parents at Paying off your Student Loans\nThank you J. Riggs for sharing your son\u2019s experience and offering some excellent advice to students. Student loans are a big responsibility and learning to pay the loans off as soon as possible is important to get out of the debt cycle. Good luck.\nAs I graduated at 20 years old with my Bachelor's in Science in Computer Science, I now realized I was on my own... with $90,000 in student loans. At first, I was overwhelmed and thinking 'What did I just do? I have doomed myself into a spiral of financial insecurity!'. Well, that's not entirely true. I graduated in 2008. I took out a 30-yr payoff plan to pay off the student loans . No, I have not paid them off in 4 years! However, my husband (Also has $75,000 in student loans) and I have a plan. We both make good money, and we are focusing on one thing at a time. I have 6 loans with the total of $90,000. I have made the minimum payment until I could afford to pay more on them. I still make the minimum payment, but now, I put $400/month extra on one particular loan-principal payments only. Now, keep in mind, I couldn't always do this.\nWhen I graduated, I bombed my first job-too advanced placement for me at the time. I was then unemployed for 3 months. After some job searching, nothing was coming up. I decided to broaden my horizons. I worked at low-income retail jobs and was doing on the side contracting in my profession. I did this until mid-2009, until I found a more stable-though not preferable-position. I was working in support-higher salary than what I was making, though not by much. We struggled for a while. My husband got raise after raise, while my company didn't seem to recognize me. I continued like this for 2 years. Finally, I was fired with no reason behind it. We won't get into how this wasn't fair, but I did get a severance package and unemployment.\nA week later, I found my current job. I have been working there over a year, and doubled my salary-in a position I actually am qualified for. So, since we have been able to stay on our feet, we have been able to pay down some on the loans. With every bonus we receive, and every check we get from family, it goes to pay off some more loans. I have followed this plan for over a year now, and I am proud to say I owe around $65,000 on my loans to this day. Which means-it is not impossible, but it does take a lot of commitment.\nYou have to realize you cannot get everything you want. Deal with the torn up couch for a little while longer, or the junker you have been driving. In the end, paying off your student loans will all be worth it. And people who do make fun of what you have...well, they will be the ones paying for 30 years to pay off their loans. Know you are doing the right thing.\nRead more advice on from other students and parents at Pay off Student Loans\nThank you Heather for sharing your story and some good tips on how to pay off student loans. Good luck to you and your husband on paying down your student loans.\nKnow What You Are Getting Into!\nby Dawn Small\nDeciding to go to college is a huge and exciting step, especially if you are a high school graduate. I remember that feeling of freedom and independence. I couldn't wait to start my parent free life, creating new experiences, meeting new people, and working towards the career of my dreams. What I wasn't ready for was the tremendous responsibility of taking on the management of school finances.\nI was very naive about tuition fees and student loans when I began my college experience. Due to my lack of knowledge in the past, I am currently suffering the consequences of wanting to continue my education and not having enough funds to do so. My dream of becoming a nurse might be just that; a dream.\nI sit here thinking, if only I knew what I know now. I wish that I made myself more aware of what I was getting into when taking out school loans, maybe I wouldn't be in so much debt. College is very expensive, and can be even more expensive when you can't afford it. Unfortunately, I can't make college less expensive, however, I would like to share a few tips on how to make college expenses more financially manageable.\nFirst, when applying to schools beyond your high school education, always consider the school's curriculum, but most importantly be aware of how much it costs. Most students overlook college tuition fees, and this is one of the most important aspects in the decision making process of choosing a school. When taking out loans for your school education, make sure you take out the required amount for that particular term. Taking out more than the required amount will result in the school refunding you a check of the difference. This may sound like its a bonus, but it's not. PUT ANY ADDITIONAL MONEY BACK into your financial aid account. As tempting as it may be to spend this extra money; this is a road that you do not want to go down. Remember loan money is money that you have to pay back.\nSecond, during the process of applying for financial aid, you will be asked if you are interested in receiving grant money; the answer to this question is yes. If you are poor like me, you better jump at the opportunity of free money every chance you get. Depending on your eligibility you will probably be offered a state grant and a Pell Grant. Even though you do not have to pay this money back, it is limited. Therefore, keep track of the disbursement of your grant money in addition to your loans.\nLast but not least apply for college scholarships. If you are a high school student, the best time to apply for school scholarships is now! (See our page on Scholarships for High School Students for ideas). Inform your school counselor/advisor on your interest in scholarships and they should be able to assist you in the process. Apply for as many scholarships as you can, so that you can get your name out there in the open. However, be careful and read the fine print, some scholarship money you are required to pay back.\nKnow what you are getting into! Getting your college education is very important, but how you plan to get your college education is most important. Make sure that you are very much involved in the financial aid process. Be knowledgeable on how your financial aid is disbursed. Smart decision making regarding your expenses is also very important. Don't be like me, a 32 year old single mother paying off her debt in student loans, with no degree, wondering how I can make my dream come true.\nRead more advice on from other students and parents at Paying off Student Loans\nThank you Dawn for sharing some very good advice and experience with paying off student loans. Student should know the cost of college before making their decision, and look at many options. There are also some Tuition Assistance Programs and many Scholarships and Grants for college. Good luck.\n(Corvallis, OR USA)\nBeing a transfer student can mess up your financial aid when you transfer in the middle of the year. No one told me that. I went from being fully covered with Pell Grants to having to take out quite a few loans because part of the grants were already used by my previous school. If I hadn't have done that I would've been fully covered.\nI'm paying off debt as I go back to school again after a break and Student Loans are not \"good debt.\" There's no such thing. You can file bankruptcy and still have to pay off your student loans, you can adjust your payments to match your income but that could lead to adding years to your payment plan.\nWhen you get down to it, if you absolutely have to take out loans the best way to pay them off is to put as much money as you can towards them every paycheck, no matter what. You'll never fully be free to live the \"American Dream\" of a house and car and kids with financial freedom if you're constantly making that minimum payment.\nEven if you only have ten dollars extra after all the expenses are paid, put it towards your loan payment. It could be the difference between taking 10 years or taking 30 years to become debt free.\nThank you Danille for sharing your advice about student loan payments. Loans should always be a last resort. It is a good strategy to pay extra if you can to get those loans paid off early. Good luck.",

        "raw_content": "Tailor the Job to YOU!\nby Erika Lodgek\n(Peoria, Arizona, United States)\nDuring my college experience at Arizona State University, one of the best jobs I had was working as a certified pharmacy technician. I started working within the pharmacy my freshman year and continued with the company until I entered medical school. The main reason I enjoyed this job so much was the fact that it allowed practical application of the material I was learning.\nAs a Health Sciences major, many of the courses I was enrolled in were science-based and included chemistry concepts. As a result, the pharmacy played the role of a laboratory science course since I was able to physically practice what I had just been exposed to within lecture. This facet of my job was one of the most rewarding since it reinforced numerous concepts and made connections that I was unable to make on my own within the classroom. Therefore, when selecting a college job I would keep in mind the opportunity you have to tailor it towards your future career plans. With that being said, it doesn\u2019t have to be a direct correlation, but if it is similar, it can aid in your professional preparation to gain experience early on. For instance, these past five years within the pharmacy have contributed to clinical experience hours that apply towards my medical school application.\nIn addition, the job itself was great with a busy school schedule. For instance, the hours of operation were reasonable since the closing time was 9:00pm, which still provided\nadequate time in the evening to study and complete homework assignments. At the same time, on the weekends the pharmacy was only open until 6:00pm, thus I was able to see friends and experience social activities. This characteristic of the pharmacy is another important factor to consider when searching for a student job, because your main focus while receiving your education is being a student. Therefore, it is pertinent to search for a job that allows you to have school as your main focus and only adds to your college experience.\nOverall, I would certainly recommend a college job as a pharmacy technician, especially if you are pursuing a career within healthcare. From my experience working part-time through my undergraduate education, working can definitely help pay for college. The main thing working can help pay for is the additional expenses that are not built within the tuition of attending college. For example, if you commute to college, working a student job can pay for your gas expenses. Additionally, a student job can also provide spending money for items not related to education. As I previously mentioned, working a job that ties into your future profession is extremely beneficial since it provides the necessary experience to apply to graduate education opportunities. Above all else, find a job that makes you happy; you can never go wrong.\nThanks Erika for sharing the importance of tailoring a student job to you - the student. Best of luck to you.\nMy Name is Shannyn and I Will be Your Waitress Today\nby Shannyn Tate\n(Tea, SD)\nWanting to make good money for college, but not wanting it to consume your life? Being a waitress can solve that problem. For me, I started out as a host when I was sixteen and then moved up to a server when I turned eighteen. Serving is also a very good way to connect with people in your town or city and learn good communication skills.\nStarting off serving is little overwhelming with having to remember where your tables are at in their meal and what you need to bring them. For example, you might have a table that is finishing up and needs boxes and a check, another table could be waiting on their meal, and another table could have just gotten sat. They would all need different things. This is very helpful with expanding your multitasking skills. Once you get past that, the tips will start to flow in. You\u2019ll learn how to talk with you\u2019re guest and how judge what they want better and faster. On slower nights, I still make ten dollars an hour with busy nights getting up to twenty dollars an hour. The money is very good considering you\u2019re a college kid with no degree and don\u2019t have a lot of options without the words minimum wage included.\nBeing a student in college most likely means you spend a lot of time studying and not a lot of time for working. The great thing about serving is that restaurants always need extra help on the weekends. Even if it\u2019s not every weekend, restaurants will be glad to have you come in one weekend a month to work. Also, weekends mean it\u2019s busier which means more money in your pocket. I really like this because I work an hour away from my school, so when I come home to work I can work twenty hours in just two days. Another wonderful thing about this kind of job is during the long winter and summer breaks, you can have the option of working full time hours which is something you cant do if you are working on campus.\nIn conclusion, working as a server has some great benefits. It helps your communication skills, math skills, multitasking skills, and did I mention you get discounted food? It has not only helped me out with paying for school, but half of the servers working in the same restaurant as me pay for their college classes too. If you are one of the many college students who want to make money and still have time to study, I encourage you to look into a serving job.\nThanks Shannyn for sharing your experience as a waitress. This is a great student job with flexible hours, discounted food and tips. Best of luck to you.\nYMCA School Age Assistant Teacher\nI have started working as an assistant teacher at before and after school care at the YMCA. This is the most adequate job for college students- regardless of their major.\nYou have to be willing to work super early in the morning and late in the afternoon, but it works well around a college students schedule. I am able to go to work early in the morning, then go to classes, do homework, or rest; then I go back to work. Sometimes I have a class that interferes with a work shift and that is okay, you just do not go to that one shift every week. I was also able to pick up a few extra hours in another department at the YMCA so that I am able to work thirty hours a week- but on my own terms at times that work for my schedule.\nThe other department is the childwatch program. This is where parents drop off their children to play while the parents go work out. The pay is not necessarily tremendous, but it helps me pay for an apartment, electricity, and internet.\nI was working at a retirement home before that, but it just got too stressful and you had to work set 4 or 8 hour shifts and then had a one hour class one day that fixed it so you could not work at all that day. With the YMCA, if that happens, it is okay.\nI work 2 and a half hour shifts. I work one shift some days, 2 shifts other days and even three shifts on a few days. I am an education major and this helps me out, but other majors are hired too. In the summer and on days school is out, you can get more hours at the YMCA working with the children all day- since school has closed, but the parents still have to work and need to have somebody take care of their children. If you like children and need to work through college, then looking into a YMCA school age or childwatch program would be beneficial for you.\nThanks Joshua about sharing your experience as YMCA School Age Assistant Teacher. It's important to have a job where they can be flexible with your class schedule. Best of luck to you.",

        "title": "42nd Gilcrest Set For This Weekend - College of the Sequoias",
        "raw_content": "42nd Gilcrest Set For This Weekend\nPhoto of Marazelle Quicio from last season.\nThe last California community college women's basketball tournament of its kind figures to be a dandy.\nThat's because many of the state's best teams are headed to Visalia.\nThe 42nd annual Gilcrest Invitational, which runs Nov. 29-Dec. 2 at College of the Sequoias, boasts 10 teams ranked among the Top 15 in either Northern or Southern California, headlined by the NorCal No. 1 Giants and SoCal No. 1 Mt. San Antonio College.\nThe tournament also includes NorCal-ranked teams in No. 2 San Joaquin Delta, No. 5 Chabot and No. 11 Sacramento, SoCal-ranked teams in No. 4 Ventura, No. 10 L.A. Valley, No. 11 Pasadena, No. 13 Canyons and No. 15 Riverside, as well as four teams receiving votes in the polls in Solano, Cerritos, Santa Rosa and Mission. Antelope Valley and Reedley round out the tournament field.\nIt's the kind of collection of top teams that former COS coach Tom Gilcrest envisioned when he helped launch the tournament in 1977. The philosophy then was to get the best teams from Northern and Southern California together in the middle of the state for a mid-season showcase, which is exactly what the Gilcrest Invitational has become.\n\"Without a doubt this has been the most respected tournament in the state,\" Giants athletic director Brent Davis said. \"Every year it's like a state championship preview. If you can do well at the Gilcrest, you will be right there when it comes time for the state championships.\"\nBut the long-standing 16-team, double-elimination tournament format of the Gilcrest Invitational is likely in its final season, according to Davis.\nCalifornia community college women's basketball is expected to follow men's basketball's lead and adopt a system that allows a maximum 28-game season, making every date on the schedule equal to a game played.\nUnder current rules, a double-elimination tournament counts as two dates whether a team plays two, three or four games.\nIf women's basketball makes the same change as the men, schools won't be interested in spending four dates while possibly playing only two games, Davis said.\nWhich means the Gilcrest Invitational in 2019 will likely be a four- or six-team affair, under a format still to be determined.\nThe Wyndham/Mannon Classic, COS's annual men's basketball tournament set for Dec. 14-16, will feature a six-team field with all match-ups set in advance.\n\"This is the last chance to watch this type of tournament,\" Davis said. \"It's sad that it's going away in the format that it's been. I voted against it, but I was in the minority.\"\nThe state's athletic directors are expected to approve the change during the California Community College Athletic Association convention in April.\nThe change is designed to help eliminate disparity when it comes time to seed teams for the state playoffs. The seeding committee has had difficulty over the years assigning priority to teams with differing numbers of games played.\nIf the proposal passes as expected, all teams will have the same number of games (28) at the end of conference play.\n\"When I was coaching JC basketball, it was a lot of fun to have those kind of (double-elimination) tournaments where you were able to give your team a short-term goal,\" Davis said. \"And if you played on Sunday, it meant a lot. For our state organization, I'm a little disappointed even though I understand why they are making the move.\"\nCOS is set to open the Gilcrest Invitational against Antelope Valley in the showcase game of the event's first day. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. Nov. 29 in Porter Field House.\nOther first-round match-ups include Sacramento vs. L.A. Valley at 1 p.m., Mt. SAC vs. Solano at 3 p.m., Chabot vs. Cerritos at 5 p.m. and Riverside vs. Delta at 7 p.m. in the old gym, and Reedley vs. Pasadena at 1 p.m., Ventura vs. Santa Rosa at 3 p.m. and Canyons vs. Mission at 5 p.m. in Porter Field House.\nGames continue at 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. in both gyms on Nov. 30, and at 10 a.m., noon, 2 p.m., 4 p.m., 6 p.m. (semifinal) and 8 p.m. (semifinal) on Dec. 1 in Porter Field House.\nThe tournament concludes Dec. 2 in Porter Field House, with the consolation championship at 10 a.m., the fifth-place game at noon, the third-place game at 2 p.m. and the championship at 4 p.m.\nCOS is the defending tournament champion, having defeated Mt. SAC 64-51 in last season's final.",

        "title": "The Author Function",
        "raw_content": "The Author Function\n1.Authors have a duty over their property much like an dog-owner is responsible for his dog. Thus if the dog bites, the dog owner will be blamed. Similarly, authors are objects of appropriation so that the authorities have someone to point a finger to when things said or written has detrimental effects. Their intellectual property also gives rise to issues of copyrights and plagarism.\n2. The author function has changed with regard to the content of the work. There was a time when literary work was accepted and read for what it is, without need of a knowledge of who the author was. Then there was another time when the value of a scientific work was based on the value of the author. The author function was \u00ecan index of truthfulness\u00ee Today, \u00ecliterary works are totally dominated by the sovereignty of the author\u00ee So basically what you\u00edre reading has no value because I am not an author. Is it?\n3. This author function is also our construction of who the author is based on what works of the author we have read. If we found a poem on the wonderful nature of a government at that time penned by Shelley, we will immediately reject that poem as not being Shelley\u00eds. Thus we have our own projections on the author.\nYet, at the same time, the author determines the value of his work. For example, in olden day, the value of a religious text was based on the holiness of the author. If this author was gay, it\u00eds almost certain the text will never be accepted into religious circles no matter how good it was.\n4. An author can refer to more than one individual. This is known as the plurality of egos. For example, I in Foucault\u00eds works can be Foucault the homosexual, Foucault the Frenchman, Foucault the philosopher or whatever else he came to represent.\nThe author function \"does not refer purely and simply to a real individual, since it can give rise simultaneously to several different selves, to several subjects--positions that can be occupied by different classes of individuals.\"",

        "raw_content": "Frances Baker and Joe Day: Help protect women from lung cancer\nToday, you have the incredible opportunity to demonstrate your support for women affected by lung cancer by adding your name to the Women and Lung Cancer Research and Preventive Service Act of 2018. Sens. Rubio (R-Fla.) and Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Congressmen LoBiondo (R-N.J.) and Nolan (D-Minn.) reintroduced bipartisan and bicameral legislation to accelerate research and investigate possible solutions to decrease the number of women affected by lung cancer.\nIn the United States, an average of 193 women die each day from lung cancer \u2014 that's one every seven minutes. Additionally, the common perception that only smokers can develop lung cancer has been proven false as two-thirds of never-smokers diagnosed with lung cancer are women. It is imperative that Congress pass this legislation to coordinate a public health plan across various federal agencies, to close knowledge gaps and advance research to address the impact of lung cancer in the U.S.\nWe need federal action to fight this deadly disease, so if you support this legislation, thank you. If you have not yet co-sponsored/endorsed the bill please do so today; as this issues impact mothers, wives, sisters, friends, fathers, husbands and brothers.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Windoze Again\nI Am What I Am Because Of Everyone \u00bb\nWal-Mart Invests Heavily in Generation 2.0 of Wal-Mart TV\nGuest Contributor, Bill Collins, DecisionPoint Media Insights\nWal-Mart is now investing heavily in Generation 2.0 of Wal-Mart TV and our special guest contributor, Bill Collins of DecisionPoint Media Insights, asks in the post that follows \u201cWill Other U.S. Retailers Follow Suit?\u201d\nIn our industry who will take the lead in moving in-store digital media up to the next level AND just as importantly, will these Generation 2.0 networks in the USA be financed and created by\u2026\nRetailers such as Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy and Kroger\nMedia Companies that are active in retail media such as PRN Corporation, CBS Outernet or the In-Store Broadcasting Network\nLeading CPG brands such as Procter & Gamble, Unilever and Kraft\nThat last group of folks of course could potentially create their own digital store endcaps, networked kiosks, or perhaps even product-category networks located in specific aisles of big box, electronics, pharmacy or grocery stores!\nA recently announced collaboration between Wal-Mart and the In-Store Marketing Institute (ISMI) provides us with some important new insights on these issues.\nWal-Mart and the ISMI have teamed up to plan a three-hour, closed-door symposium later this year on the Wal-Mart\u2019s Gen 2.0 \u201cWal-Mart Smart Network\u201d\nThe precise timetable for the rollout of the Gen 2.0 Wal-Mart Smart Network has not yet been announced by Wal-Mart, however, it\u2019s safe to assume that Wal-Mart\u2019s readiness to invite CPG brands and their agencies to a 3-hour closed session in November during the ISMI\u2019s In-Store Marketing Expo is a good indication that the nationwide U.S. rollout of the Gen 2.0 network will be well underway by that time.\n\u201cWal-Mart Smart Network Symposium: Best Practices and Key Learning from Wal-Mart\u2019s New Strategic Marketing Platform\u201d \u2013 14 November 2008\nhttp://instoreexpo.com/attendees/symposiums.php\nYou can apply for the right to pay USD 275 to attend the Wal-Mart symposium by telephoning the ISMI at (888) 767-7469 in the USA or +847 675 7400 for callers from outside the USA.\nWhat would a Gen 2.0 network look like?\nSo, what would be required to \u201ctake retail media to the next level\u201d in Gen 2.0?\nFor starters, a Gen 2.0 digital media network at retail would need to:\nBring screens down to eye level\nBuild screens into endcaps, fixtures and shelving\nAbandon the 2001-2002 \u201chang and bang\u201d model where flat screens are hung nilly-willy around the store, mostly in locations that are difficult for shoppers to see\nControl audio so that the soundtrack of these networks is welcomed by shoppers and store employees alike\nPack merchandise around the screens and speakers, so that the sound-and-motion media serves a useful purpose for both marketing and merchandising just as conventional Point-of-Purchase displays do\nEarlier this year, Mike Hiatt, director of internal media networks at Wal-Mart, confirmed that this new type of in-store media network had been rolled out to 40 Wal-Mart stores in the USA.\nDuring Hiatt\u2019s February 2008 keynote presentation at the Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas, he reported that the new \u201cWal-Mart Smart Network\u201d which will be financed and owned by Wal-Mart and underwritten by selling advertising to CPG brands, is being developed to replace the existing Gen 1.0 \u201cWal-Mart TV\u201d network in at least some of Wal-Mart\u2019s U.S. Stores.\nThe Gen 1.0 Wal-Mart TV network, which is owned by the media company PRN Corporation, was installed in Wal-Mart stores by PRN starting about ten years ago.\nIn an article published in the 17 March 2008 edition of Supermarket News, Bobbie Katz reported on Mike Hiatt\u2019s presentation at the Digital Signage Expo and wrote\u2026\n\u201cAs Wal-Mart sees it, the five A\u2019s of in-store digital content are appropriate, affordable, adaptable (to different environments, stores and demographics) attractive and assembled quickly,\u201d Hiatt said.\nWal-Mart is especially trying to make the content on the digital network adaptable and thus more relevant to shoppers at a particular location. \u201cIn-store advertising has to have the right message at the right time in the right place and with the right product,\u201d he [Hiatt] said. \u201cSo we want to start programming to different markets, such as the Hispanic and Jewish markets. The technology must be developed to give content to engage the shopper.\u201d\nLast fall [the fall / autumn of 2007] Wal-Mart conducted a pilot study of the network\u2019s effectiveness in growing category sales and improving the shopping experience, Hiatt said. Incorporating 40 test stores, 2400 customer intercepts and 45 products over a 12-week period, Wal-Mart discovered that \u201cthe closer the messaging to the product, the better the sales lift,\u201d he said. He [Hiatt] also cited results showing that endcap display TVs represent an effective approach to supplier promotion and offered a real possibility of sustained category lift.\nThe Wal-Mart network is \u201calways a collaborative process between us and our supplier partners,\u201d Hiatt said. \u201cBut ultimately it\u2019s all about the shopper\u2019s experience and helping them.\u201d\nSpeakers from PRN and DS-IQ will address Wal-Mart\u2019s November forum\nIt\u2019s not completely clear yet what role PRN will play in this new network and whether the Gen 1.0 model of Wal-Mart TV will continue to operate in some of Wal-Mart\u2019s U.S. stores, but it should be noted that two of PRN\u2019s senior executives will be speaking at Wal-Mart\u2019s 14th November symposium in Las Vegas.\nThose two PRN executives \u2013 President Richard Fisher and Senior Vice President of Marketing, Michael Quinn\u2013 will join two Wal-Mart executives (one of whom is Mike Hiatt) on the symposium\u2019s panel.\nAlso scheduled to appear on the panel will be David DeBusk, the vice president of sales at DS-IQ, one of Wal-Mart\u2019s software/research partners on the Gen 2.0 network.\nIn his February 2008 presentation, Wal-Mart\u2019s Mike Hiatt gave repeated plugs to DS-IQ, explaining how DS-IQ\u2019s IT system proved conclusively to Wal-Mart executives that when quality content is screened on the network, sales of the products that are advertised on the network increase in real time.\nWal-Mart invests in in-store media while other retailers cut capital spending\nToday, during a period of slow retail sales in the USA, it is very significant that Wal-Mart is stepping up to the challenge of creating a Gen 2.0 in-store digital media network.\nAt a time when most U.S. retailers have scaled back their capital spending, Wal-Mart is investing heavily in in-store digital media for the first time in the company\u2019s history!\nThe big question is whether Wal-Mart\u2019s investment in the Wal-Mart Smart Network cause other U.S. retailers to copy Wal-Mart and finance their own Gen 2.0 networks?\nFour months before Wal-Mart\u2019s scheduled Las Vegas symposium, it is perhaps still too early to tell BUT EVEN NOW \u2013 in the middle of a very gloomy time for U.S. retail, we do know that when Wal-Mart talks, other U.S. retailers never fail to listen!\nThis entry was posted on Sunday, July 20th, 2008 at 16:28 @728 and is filed under DailyDOOH Update.

First, it appears that WalMart\u2019s next generation network includes a change in long-time partner PRN\u2019s role from primary mover to mere vendor.

        "raw_content": "Businesses That Give\nWouldn\u2019t it be great if you could choose a gift that keeps on giving? No matter what holiday you are celebrating, it wouldn\u2019t hurt if your wallet did more than simply allow you to purchase a holiday present. Check out these three companies who are currently running holiday campaigns for a cause:\nETSY\u2019S #makeforgood Initiative\nEtsy is an online marketplace that generally sells handmade goods. Etsy has partnered with Plan International Australia to launch the #makeforgood initiative. Etsy sellers create a product based on the theme \u201csilver linings for girls\u201d, and 20% of sales from products in the #makeforgood collection are donated to Plan International\u2019s Because I am a Girl campaign, whose goal is to provide 150 young women with grants so they can start their own microenterprises and get out of poverty.\nIKEA\u2019s Soft Toys for Education\nThe IKEA Foundation launched the Soft Toys for Education campaign in 2003 and has since raised nearly AUD$115 million to support UNICEF and Save the Children in their educational projects for children. 2015 is a special year because, for the first time, some of the soft toys are actually designed by children. For every soft toy sold in participating stores in November and December, the IKEA Foundation will donate the equivalent of around AUD $1.50 to UNICEF and Save the Children.\nUgly Xmas Rashie\nThe Ugly Xmas Rashie is a very new product on the market, just launched on November 8 of this year. Thanks to warmer weather, a lot of Australians will likely hit the beach for the holidays, and Christmas sweaters and jumpers just aren\u2019t going to make the cut, hence the creation of this unisex rash-shirt that is 100% Australian made by Kozii Swimwear. All profits from the sale of this limited edition rashie will go towards Cancer Council QLD for research funding and patient support services. These are just a few of the companies that make donations to support a cause. If you want to support these organizations, or have one of your own, one of the best ways you can help, apart from making that purchase or a personal contribution, is by spreading the word. Spreading awareness about a cause can move more people to participate and take action. If you own a business and want to donate a percentage of your sales, why not get your customers involved, or make them aware? Every purchase is an opportunity to let them know how they\u2019ve contributed the organization you are supporting. Give them something back to symbolize your appreciation as well as their contribution. An inexpensive way to do this would be to give a button badge or fridge magnet with a simple thank you, plus the details of the organization. Alternately, you can offer the sale of a button badge or magnet to help raise funds for your cause. You don\u2019t need to have a business to be able to contribute. You can hold your own fundraiser, or you can spread the word by including those same magnets or button badges in your Christmas presents. Who knows, you might just inspire another soul to continue the gift of giving, even beyond the holidays.",

        "raw_content": "Henry Metal Announces The Release Of His 7th studio album,\u201cDeadlift Cowboy\u201d.\nFebruary 10, 2018 - Los Angeles, CA - Henry Metal has released his 7th studio album, \u201cDeadlift Cowboy,\u201d which will be widely available in the coming week. \u201cDeadlift Cowboy\u201d is a surreal and absurdist addition to the heavy metal and hard rock canon which pushes the boundaries of style and theme while remaining true to the rock song format. The album melds rock song structure, honest comedy, metal virtuosity and the heart of the singer songwriter.\n\u201cDeadlift Cowboy\u201d takes its time and makes its point without filler, noise gimmicks or non-sense. It's a continually pushing musical journey which captures out-of-the-box choices and harnesses thoughts that are rarely voiced in an industry where everyone is dying to be liked and commercially viable. The internet has given Henry a unique opportunity to fit in with people who don't necessarily want to fit in with a contrived status quo, and that following is smoldering and growing as the weeks pass.\nThe Henry Metal 'labor-of-love' project debuted less than a year ago to date and has released 7 full-length albums and a compilation album, \u201cThe Essential Henry Metal, Vol. 1.\u201d He's the childhood student of a well known guitar shredder and his mis-spent youth included hanging around some of the best studio musicians and metal labels in New York City. He found his voice in the heyday of rock and metal and champions uncontrived songs and a dedication to the rock album format.\nCompany Name: Henry Metal\nEmail: henrymetal@yahoo.com\nWebsite: www.henrymetal.net",

        "title": "Pomeranian Poodle Mix - The Pomapoo - Dog Breed Answers",
        "raw_content": "The Pomeranian Poodle mix is often referred to as a Pomapoo, the Poopom, or the Pomadoodle, and this hybrid dog is a mix between a Toy Poodle and a Pomeranian, which are both small dogs. These friendly, loveable dogs are very intelligent, and they are well suited to living in small homes, such as condos or apartments. Currently, these breeds are not recognized by the AKC or other purebred clubs. However, the Pomapoo is recognized by the International Canine Designer Registry, the American Canine Hybrid Club, and the Designer Dogs Kennel Club. Is this the right hybrid for your family? Here\u2019s a closer look at helpful information that can help you make this decision, including a look at the hybrid\u2019s history, appearance, grooming needs, temperament, health, and more.\nThe Pomapoo is a hybrid dog that is a part of a trend that has become very popular \u2013 designer dogs. These are mixed breeds that were deliberately created, and they\u2019ve become popular within the last 20-30 years. However, it\u2019s not quite clear when the Pomeranian Poodle mix was created, although it was likely first created about 20 years ago when Poodle mixes became popular because they were thought to be hypoallergenic. Still, while we don\u2019t know a lot about the exact origin of the hybrid, we can learn a lot about these mixed breed dogs by looking at both of the parent breeds: the Toy Poodle and the Pomeranian.\nThe Poodle was originally bred in Germany for retrieving and waterfowl hunting purposes. Later, the Standard Poodle would be bred with other dogs until the Toy Poodle was created. The Toy Poodle was used as a companion dog and became quite popular among French nobility. These dogs were first registered in England back 1874 and they would be first registered within the United States in 1886.\nThe Pomeranian was originally developed to be a companion dog and the name comes from the province Pomerania, where these dogs are originally from. In the beginning, these dogs were bigger than they are today, weighing in at about 30 pounds. They\u2019ve been popular through the centuries, and it\u2019s thought that many well-known names through history have owned these dogs, such as Michelangelo, Mozart, and Newton. The dogs were brought in England in the 18th century, and the breed became very popular among rich individuals in England. It was Queen Victoria that wanted a smaller dog, and English breeders started breeding these dogs to be smaller. Later, in the 1880s, the Pomeranian would finally arrive in the United States.\nYour Pomeranian Poodle mix will be a very small dog, weighing somewhere between 5 and 15 pounds and standing at between 8 and 10 inches tall. The Pomapoo can vary in their appearance \u2013 some look more like Poodles while others may look more like a Pomeranian. They may have straight or high set tails, and the coat can vary between wavy or straight and medium or short in length. Some of the potential coat colors may include white, black, and brown, and some dogs may have a mixture of these colors.\nPomapoo Temperament\nThese small dogs are very smart, and the Pomeranian Poodle mix is also very loving and affectionate with their family. However, they can be a bit wary of new people. Usually the Pomapoo are better with older children, and they love to get plenty of attention. If they are left alone too often, they may end up suffering from separation anxiety.\nIt\u2019s important to make sure these dogs get a moderate amount of exercise. Your Pomeranian Poodle mix will need a mixture of mental and physical stimulation to keep him well behaved, healthy, and happy. Since these dogs are small, they can do very well in a small apartment, but they do need to get out and get some exercise each day. Exercise should include play time, a minimum of one walk a day, and trips to a dog park from time to time.\nSince the Pomapoo is very smart and eager to please, usually they train quite easily. Rewards like play time, toys, treats, and praise are all very helpful when you\u2019re raining these dogs. It\u2019s best to start their training and socialization while they are very young, since the Pomeranian Poodle mix can become more stubborn as they grow older.\nThe grooming needs of your Pomapoo will depend on their specific coat. If they have a curly coat, they won\u2019t shed very much. However, no matter what kind of coat your hybrid ends up with, regular brushing will be essential. Regular trimming by a professional is recommended every few months as well. Only bathe the Pomeranian Poodle mix as needed, and they may need to have their nails professional clipped from time to time too. Check for any ear problems weekly and wipe the ears clean. Teeth should be brushed several times a week, since they are prone to dental problems. Since these dogs can develop stains under the eyes, wiping their face daily can help prevent this problem.\nThe Pomeranian Poodle mix is a companion dog and is rarely used in working roles.\nSince both the Pomeranian and the Toy Poodle have a long lifespan, you can expect the average lifespan of your Pomapoo to be between 13 and 15 years. Usually hybrid dogs are fairly healthy and do not end up with many of the health concerns of the two parent breeds. However, you still need to be aware of some of the health problems that affect the parents so you know what problems could end up affecting your hybrid dog. Some of the potential health problems that could show up in a Pomeranian Poodle mix include:\nCategories: Dog Breed Mixes, Pomeranian Mixes, Poodle Mixes\nPomeranian Poodle Mix \u2013 The Pomapoo (This Page)\n2 thoughts on \u201cPomeranian Poodle Mix \u2013 The Pomapoo\u201d\nJoy Squires on March 27, 2017 at 01:39 said:\nVery good info.

        "raw_content": "Remmer Schuetz (Knee)\nAuctioneer Sold on New Stryker Knees\nSeventy-year-old Remmer Schuetz is not a man who sits on his laurels. But after 15 years of suffering from knee pain, that\u2019s just what the Dundee, IL, resident had resigned himself to doing. An active auctioneer and expert restorer of antique tractors, Remmer became accustomed to keeping his eye out for a nearby chair. \u201cMy knees were worn out from years of abuse \u2014 too much hard work. It got to the point where I would just drop. All I could do was look for a place to sit down. I was always looking for a place to sit down \u2014 it hurt just to stand up,\u201d explained Remmer.\n\u201cWhen I could hardly walk, and it got to the point where it was slowing me down to nothing, I knew I had to do something. It was no way to live. So you start asking everyone you see who\u2019s had joint replacement what their experience was like. My neighbor had it done with Dr. Schroeder and had an excellent experience, so I went to see him.\u201d Dr. Schroeder suggested partial knee replacement to rid just the diseased portion of Remmer\u2019s knee. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to trust your doctor and like your doctor. Dr. Schroeder explained everything to me and didn\u2019t use any terminology that would have left me confused. I\u2019m just a farm boy who\u2019s worked in dirt and iron all my life, but when he was through showing me the X-ray and explaining what he wanted to do, I understood everything.\u201d\nAfter undergoing a successful Stryker EIUS\u00ae Uni Knee System procedure on his right knee, he went back to get his left knee done less than a year later. \u201cI had my surgery on a Friday at 7 a.m. and was home by 4 p.m. That Monday I went to see my surgeon who removed my brace. Tuesday I threw my walker away. Wednesday I threw my cane away. The following Friday I moderated two auctions and felt great.\u201d\nIn addition to auctioneering, Remmer has over 50 Case tractors with the oldest being from 1918 to the newest, which is from 1963. Through his skills and passion, all of his tractors run perfectly well. To restore these antiques, Remmer is constantly bending and squatting, which had been painful for him before he underwent partial knee replacement.\nModerating three auctions a month where he sells anything and everything, Remmer was used to standing all day long. Even when he was in pain he never missed one. \u201cI would just grit my teeth and go out there. I would sit if I had to. Now I can go to an auction and be on my feet from 7 in the morning to 7 at night and not be in pain. I\u2019m not like I was when I was 20, but I\u2019m 70. I farm a bit, bale hay, load hay, and drive tractors. I still put in 12-hour days. I\u2019m active, and I am no longer in pain.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "KEVIN DUERINCK GENEALOGY PAGE -- ELLIS ISLAND ANCESTOR RECORDS\nLAST REVISED: July 19, 2003. Cannot find Charles Duerinck, also known as Charles Deerinck, born 1888, emigrated 1909 from Belgium.\n\"Smith\" Durinck: Here is some information from the 1920 U.S. Census for the State of Minnesota, Lyon County, Township of Ghent, Enumeration District #105. Whoever typed up the online searchable index for the 1920 census, entered this Durinck as \"Smith\" Durinck--certainly wrong, age 43 (so born circa 1877 Belgium). The record itself is very unreadable, but the wife is named Alida, age of 37 years (so born circa 1883 Belgium). It appears the one son is named Francis Duerinck, and it appears the child is 7/12, or 7 months old (so born 1919 Minnesota), although the record is very bad. It appears that the husband \"Smith\" immigrated in 1913 (looks like 1923, but couldn't be, this is the 1920 census!), Alida immigrated 1917. It says that \"Smith\" was a laborer.\nI finally had a chance to access the immigration records at http://www.ellisislandrecords.org/default.asp. The records of immigrants on ships that landed at Ellis Island in New York, USA cover the time period of 1892 through 1924. Behind the scenes there will be more work to expand the range of years and data available. Before Ellis Island opened in 1892, New York bound ships landed at Castle Garden in Manhattan. These records have all been microfilmed by the Mormons (LDS) but are not in the Ellis Island archive.\nFor the time being, there is a lot of information available. At the Ellis Island internet site, you should be ready to hit the \"Refresh\" button repeatedly on your computer, as the site has been swamped with many visitors. There is also a new tool by Morse, and others, that facilitates your search. Go to Morse Search Tool for Ellis Island The following records were found for the surnames Duerinck, Durinck, and Dierinck.\n--Alois Duerinck (record says \"Deerinck\"), from Belsele (record says \"Bufelde\"), Belgium, arrived on the ship Finland out of Antwerp, Belgium on 18 Oct 1910 at the age of 21. This is my paternal grandfather.\n--Note: Alois then went back to Belgium in 1914 right before the start of World War II. He married, and then brought his wife and first child back to the USA in 1919.\n--Alois Duerinck, from Belsele, Belgium, arrived on the ship La Savoie out of Le Havre, Seine-Inferior, France, on 22 Nov 1919 at the age of 30. This is my paternal grandfather.\n--Thais Duerinck, from Belsele, Belgium, arrived on the ship La Savoie out of Le Havre, Seine-Inferior, France, on 22 Nov 1919 at the age of 21. This is my paternal grandmother.\n--Lea Duerinck, from Belsele, Belgium, arrived on the ship La Savoie out of Le Havre, Seine-Inferior, France, on 22 Nov 1919 at the age of 2. This is my aunt.\n--Pieter Deurinck, my great uncle, properly spelled Pieter Duerinck, Chicago, USA citizen, single, sailed from Rotterdam, NL on the ship Ryndam, arriving at Ellis Island, New York on October 7, 1914 at the age of 23 (that is, born in 1891).\n--John Duerinck, a Flemish-speaking Belgian, arrived on the ship Caledonier on 16 June 1923 at the age of 24.\n--Louis Duerinck, from Stoppeldijk, Holland, arrived on the ship Lapland out of Antwerp on 18 May 1912, at the age of 1 year, 9 months.\n--Johanna Duerinck, from Stoppeldijk, Holland, arrived on the ship Lapland out of Antwerp on 13 May 1912 at the age of 26 years.\n--Desere Duerinck, from Stoppeldijk, Holland, arrived on the ship Lapland out of Antwerp on 13 May 1912 at the age of 26 years.\n--Ester Duerinck, from Vracene, Belgium, arrived on the ship Southwark out of Antwerp on 27 August 1901 at the age of 20 years. The record says that she was a USA citizen.\n--Aloys Duerincka, from Vracene, Belgium arrived on the ship Zeeland out of Antwerp in 1902 at the age of 22 years, 5 months.\n--Franz Duerinck(y), from Belgium, arrived on the ship Pennland out of Antwerp on 24 May 1892 at the age of 20 years. NOTE: from a death record or obituary notice from another site, I have found out the following: Franciscus Duerinck, born 1872, Vracene, Belgium, died 06/November/1896, Norway, Michigan, USA. Son of Josephus Duerinckx and Pelasi Van Stertegen. (Printer: Volksstem Druk, De Pere, Wis.).\n--Rachel Durinck, from Calcken, Belgium, arrived on the ship Niagara out of Bordeaux, Gironde, France at the age of 22 years and 11 months.

        "raw_content": "After the winning of EURO 2008, Spain continued with trashing their opponents. They finished an impressive group stage in the 2009 Confederations Cup by defeating hosts South Africa 2-0 on Saturday night. The victory has given Spain a world record of 15 consecutive international wins. And not just that, by avoiding defeat in tonight\u2019s match, they would also set a new all-time record for unbeaten matches \u2013 they are currently level with Brazil on 35. First place in the group with eight goals scored and zero conceded, while strikers Fernando Torres and David Villa both have 3 goals apiece. Vincente Del Bosque has probably the best team in Spanish history. Attacking duo Torres-Villa is certainly the best on the world. Midfield, even without Senna and Iniesta looks masterful, while defence conceded just two goals from last 16 games and a clean sheet has been kept in a remarkable 25 of mentioned 35 fixtures (over 70%)! Considering their current shape, they\u2019re big favorites in this semi-final.\nAfter the first two displays, situation looked hopeless for USA. Two defeats, from Italy and Brazil, with six goals conceded and two red cards deserved. They needed a wonder to pass the group stage. But, in the third game, lads humiliated confused Pharaons (who btw. played defensive in the second-half, trying to keep the minimal defeat!) and with the favor from Brazil who defeated Italy, booked a ticket to semi-finals. Players confidence raised, they\u2019ll undoubtedly put up a good fight in this encounter, but Spain isn\u2019t Egypt. On the other half of the pitch will be (probably) the best eleven on the world. Semi-final is a big success for the Bob Bradley\u2019s squad, but it seems they came till the end of the road. They already beat the odds once, but this time, anything except the convincing defeat is hard to imagine. USA\u2019s main hope will be the underestimation from Spanish side.\nIt is unnecessary to be said who is closer to final. Spain is much better side and it\u2019s hard to expect USA can repeat the performance from Egypt game. I think we\u2019ll watch an open game and choose bet on goals, rather than Spanish win. Pinnacle offers 1.85. Over.\nPosted Dule Wednesday, 24 June 2009 at 12:28 Labels Andres Iniesta, Bob Bradley, Confederations Cup, David Villa, Egypt, Fernando Torres, Marcos Senna, South Africa, Spain, USA, Vincente Del Bosque",

        "title": "queerplaces - Casey Donovan",
        "raw_content": "Metropole Cinema Club, 411 L St NW, Washington, DC 20001\nCasey Donovan (born John Calvin \"Cul\" Culver; November 2, 1943[1] \u2013 August 10, 1987[2]) was an American male pornographic film actor from the late 1960s until the mid-1980s, appearing primarily in adult films and videos catering to gay male audiences, during the Golden Age of Porn. Following a brief career as a Latin teacher and a stint as a highly paid male model, Donovan appeared in the film that would cement his status as a gay icon, Boys in the Sand, in 1971. Attempts to build on his notoriety to achieve mainstream crossover success failed, but Donovan continued to be a bankable star in the adult industry for the next 15 years. He was briefly a mainstream actor, who appeared on stage, as well as a theatre producer and manager and appeared as himself in TV series Emerald City.\nCulver attended the State University of New York (SUNY) at Geneseo, where he was a member of Phi Sigma Epsilon Fraternity and the drama club. After graduation in 1965 he accepted a teaching position in Peekskill, New York.[3] He went on to take a job at the private Ethical Culture Fieldston School on New York City's Central Park West[4] but was fired during his second year following an altercation in which he physically disciplined a female student (reportedly the daughter of actor Eli Wallach).[5]\nFollowing his dismissal, Culver drifted into being an escort and relocated to New York City.[6] He also began pursuing an acting career, appearing in summer stock theatre with the prestigious Peterborough Players.[7]\nThrough one of his escorting clients, Culver landed a spot with the Wilhelmina Models modeling agency, commanding an hourly rate of US $60.[8] He continued to pursue stage work, landing an understudy job in 1969 in the Off-Broadway gay-themed play And Puppy Dog Tails, making his Broadway debut in 1970 in the Native American-themed production Brave and a co-starring role in the off-Broadway Circle in the Water, also in 1970.[9]\nIn 1971, Culver played a supporting role in a low budget sexploitation thriller film, Ginger. While the film was a commercial and critical failure, Variety noted his performance positively, saying \"Only Calvin Culver...shows any indication of better things to come.\"[8] This in turn led to an offer to appear in Casey,[10] a gay pornographic film in which Culver played the title role, a gay man who is visited by his fairy godmother Wanda (Culver playing a dual role in drag), and is granted a series of wishes which make him sexually irresistible to other men. Culver later took the character's name, Casey, and that of the popular Scottish singer-songwriter Donovan to create the pseudonym under which he would appear in all his other erotic roles.[11]\nCulver first appeared as Casey Donovan in Boys in the Sand, directed by Wakefield Poole, in 1971. The film was an instant success and is considered one of the great classics of male erotic cinema. With the success and celebrity he garnered from the film, Donovan believed that he would be able to cross over into mainstream film. While there were meetings with directors like John Schlesinger and Raymond St. Jacques[12] and talk of casting him in mainstream projects including adaptations of novels by Mary Renault and Patricia Nell Warren,[13] the only film opportunities opened for him were as the star of more erotic films. These included the bisexual porn film Score,[14] The Back Row with George Payne,[15] L. A. Tool & Die with Bob Blount and Richard Locke,[16] The Other Side of Aspen with Al Parker, Steve Turk and Dick Fisk,[17] Boys in the Sand II[18] and Inevitable Love, with Jon King and Jamie Wingo.[19] Shortly before his death he starred, appearing heavily intoxicated, in the fisting movie Fucked Up, for Christopher Rage. He also appeared in a number of heterosexual porn films, most notably The Opening of Misty Beethoven where he had a scene with Constance Money.[20]\nOutside his adult film career, Donovan continued to pursue stage work. In 1972, he was cast in a short-lived Broadway revival of Captain Brassbound's Conversion.[21] Star Ingrid Bergman described him as \"having the same kind and as much charisma as Robert Redford.\"[22] He then landed a small role in the 1973 Lincoln Center production of The Merchant of Venice,[23] which was praised as having \"vivid appeal.\"[24] In 1974, Donovan starred as Brian, a gay bathhouse attendant, in the play Tubstrip, written and directed by Jerry Douglas, which had successful runs in Los Angeles and San Francisco before moving to Broadway.[25][26] While the play was critically deemed entertaining enough to its target gay audience[27] (having earned, in the words of one critic, a \"nationwide gay housekeeping seal of approval\")[28] Donovan himself was judged as simply \"no better nor worse [an] actor than most of the others [in the cast].\"[29] In 1983, he turned his hand to producing, with an unsuccessful Broadway revival of Terrence McNally's play The Ritz[30] in which he also appeared.[31]\nDonovan's iconic status allowed him to build a lucrative career as a high-priced prostitute,[32] though it would cost him his legitimate modeling career as more and more clients made the connection between model Culver and porn star Donovan.[33] He wrote an advice column, \"Ask Casey,\" for the gay-oriented Stallion magazine beginning in 1982.[34]\nCasey Donovan was born John Calvin Culver in East Bloomfield, New York, growing up there with his parents and older brother, Duane.[35]\nIn 1973 at the height of his popularity, Donovan met actor-turned writer Tom Tryon and the two entered into a long-term relationship the following year.[36] Tryon was deeply closeted and grew increasingly disturbed by Donovan's notoriety. Their relationship ended in 1977.[37]\nIn 1978, Donovan purchased a house in Key West, Florida to run as a bed and breakfast dubbed \"Casa Donovan.\" He struggled to keep it, but it failed.[38] More successful was his time as a celebrity tour guide, conducting all-gay trips in partnership with an outfit called Star Tours to Italy, China, Peru and other places.[39]\nBy 1985, Donovan's health had begun to deteriorate, as he had contracted HIV. Although he had counseled his fans through his \"Ask Casey\" column as early as 1982 to reduce their number of sex partners and take steps to preserve their health,[40] and urged them to be tested for HIV once the test was developed, he himself made little or no effort to change his behavior.[41] Donovan died in 1987 of an AIDS-related pulmonary infection in Inverness, Florida, aged 43.[42]\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/queerplaces/images/Casey_Donovan_(actor)",

        "raw_content": "Say goodbye to that familiar recruitment story\u2026\nWe\u2019ve all been there. You\u2019re interviewing candidates for a post\u2026 it\u2019s taken an age to get this far. Writing the job spec, loading it on to the job boards, sifting through hundreds of email applications \u2013 some of which you\u2019re sure, haven\u2019t even read the job spec or even know what they\u2019re applying for.\nEventually, after two weeks \u2013 you\u2019ve narrowed it down to 12 people that you\u2019re going to interview and that task starts today. You\u2019ve got your coffee and your list of interview questions. You\u2019re not looking forward to spending the best part of half of your day for the next week doing interviews, but you\u2019re high in hope that the first one in the door will be the perfect candidate (after all \u2013 he looked pretty damned good on paper) and you\u2019ll be able to bin the rest of the CVs and get on with your day job\u2026\nYou\u2019ve had a call from reception\u2026 the first candidate has arrived and you make your way down to meet him. He\u2019s on his mobile when you walk into reception, he\u2019s untidy looking and greets you with an \u201calright\u201d as you show him the way to the lift and begin the 90 second journey to the meeting room where the interview will take place.\n80 seconds later and you\u2019ve not even made it to the interview but you know this person isn\u2019t the right person for the job. Your chat in the lift has given you an insight into who is the man behind the CV and they\u2019re most certainly not right for this job\u2026 or in fact any job within the company, so what are you going to do? You can\u2019t just turn round and tell him to go and so, you sit politely in a room asking hypothetical questions that you\u2019ve no interest in hearing the answers to for as long as you can drag it out\u2026 45 minutes later, you thank him for his time, tell him you\u2019ll be in touch, grab yourself another coffee and hope the next hour isn\u2019t going to be quite as bad.\nSound familiar? Here\u2019s a different story to compare it to\u2026\nYou\u2019ve got a post that you need to hire for. You write a job spec and between 5 and 10 key questions you would ask an interview candidate. You hand it to Energon People and a few days later you log into their unique video interview platform and review a selection of 15-minute video interviews from candidates that are answering your questions. You\u2019ll see the CV alongside the short video.\nFrom there, you cherry-pick three candidates, completely eliminate the first interview process and bring in the three genuine contenders to interview for the role. No nasty surprises, no wasted hours, no weeks of interviewing and no danger of missing the diamond in the rough candidate that might not have had the strongest CV but blew the other candidates away in the video interview.\nSounds pretty good doesn\u2019t it?\nWe are Energon People and our unique video recruiting platform \u2018Hinterview\u2019 can reduce your interview to hire ratio from 12:1 all the way down to 3:1.

Ronny Hartmann/Bongarts/Getty Images\nUEFA will reveal more details of the concessions made by RB Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg to comply with rules that ban clubs owned by the same entity from playing in the same competition.\nHaving initially been told they would not both be able to play in the Champions League next season, the clubs met officials from UEFA's club financial control body (CFCB) last week to explain a series of changes made to Salzburg's ownership.\nThe finer points of these changes have not yet been made public, but Press Association Sport reports that that Red Bull billionaire Dietrich Mateschitz no longer owns the Austrian champions, several Red Bull employees who held management roles have left and Red Bull is now only a sponsor on reduced financial terms.\nThese moves were enough to satisfy UEFA that the clubs comply with its article five on the integrity of competitions, although answers to questions about who now owns Salzburg, how much they paid and what Red Bull's sponsorship is worth will have to wait until CFCB's \"reasoned decision\" is published either later this week or early next week.\nSalzburg have not yet replied to Press Association Sport's attempts to answer those questions.\nIn a statement on Tuesday, UEFA said: \"Following a thorough investigation, and further to several important governance and structural changes made by the clubs (regarding corporate matters, financing, personnel, sponsorship arrangements, etc), the CFCB deemed that no individual or legal entity had anymore a decisive influence over more than one club participating in a UEFA club competition.\"\nMateschitz bought SV Austria Salzburg in 2005 and renamed the club after his energy drink, having already made a similar move in Formula One.\nA year later, he repeated the trick a year later with Major League Soccer club the MetroStars, rebranding them the New York Red Bulls.\nThe 73-year-old Austrian then founded clubs in Brazil and Germany -- the latter occurring when he bought the playing rights of fifth division side SSV Markranstadt, a city near Leipzig, in 2009 with the aim of taking RB Leipzig to the Bundesliga within eight years.\nThey narrowly missed that target, achieving it in their ninth season, but were immediately successful in Germany's top flight, pipping Borussia Dortmund to second place behind Bayern Munich last season.\nSalzburg, meanwhile, have dominated Austrian football under Red Bull's ownership, winning eight titles since 2005 and the last four in a row.\nAs champions they would have had priority over Leipzig, meaning the latter would have been prevented from playing in UEFA competitions without the changes at Salzburg.\nThe news has been well received in the German media, despite Leipzig's unpopularity with many fans because their corporate structure is out of step with the country's traditional ownership model of clubs controlled by their supporters.\nLeipzig's chief executive Oliver Mintzlaff is widely quoted in the German press explaining that he has stood down as \"head of global soccer\" for Red Bull's clubs -- a position formerly held by Gerard Houllier -- in order to comply with UEFA's rules.",

        "raw_content": "Karnataka chooses ESRI Technology for Disaster Management Portal\nNew Delhi, August 3, 2009: Karnataka, an important state of India, has been a pioneering state in setting up a disaster monitoring (established way back in 1988) through its Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC), an autonomous body under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of Karnataka. The KSNDMC has the major responsibility to monitor and pro-actively provide advanced information on natural disasters in the state of Karnataka. The Centre integrates the data collected by in-situ measurements, imaging and secondary data from various state and central Government agencies - Meteorology, Agriculture, Horticulture, Surface and Ground Water Resources, Dry Land Farming, Water-shed Development, Soil Survey, Surface Water Resources, Command Area Development and many others. The Centre has been in operation from 1988 and has large volumes of historical records and data, which when integrated with current data, serves as a major dataset for developing empirical and mathematical models for prognostic and diagnostic characterization of natural hazards. KSNDMC provides Decision Support information on disasters to various government agencies and community agencies in the form of graphs, maps and tabulated data.\nThe KSNDMC decided to establish a Disaster Portal \u2013 by taking up a major initiative of converting all their data holdings into a real-time geodatabase and analysis systems. With their powerful empirical models, KSNDMC envisages the Portal to be a GIS service that will provide real-time estimates of drought, rainfall, crop status, earthquake monitors and many other parameters. The Portal is a sophisticated project that embeds the geodatabase on a powerful map and imaging server software to be able to model and estimate the disaster and provide alerts thru web, SMS and also in conventional maps/reports.\nThe KSNDMC decided to adopt the ArcGISServer technology to power their GIS portal for Disaster Monitoring. As the real-time collection, modeling and dissemination of disaster related information is of utmost importance, KSNDMC decided to establish a Web-GIS based Disaster Monitoring portal. The architecture being server\u2013based, will lay the foundation for hosting and serving images and data information. ESRI\u2019s globally utilized and accepted ARcGIS Technology was chosen to be at the core of this GIS portal. The ArcGISServer will be used to establish a customized geodatabase ingest method using historical nd real-time networks of automatic weather station data, earthquake seismograph stations data and a host of other base data of disaster. Customised ArcGIS modeling tools will integrate and \u201ccrunch\u201d all the data to be able make empirical estimates using the already available KSNDMC models for drought and floods etc. The entire portal is being designed, developed and implemented with help of NIIT GIS Ltd. (ESRI India).\n\u201cDisaster Monitoring requires real-time spatial data and integrated non-spatial attributes and powerful tools of spatialisation for modeling. KSNDMC has established simple and empirical models but this needs the power of a good database to be able to be predictive and cut down time of manually analyzing and dissemination of paper maps. Further, the technology has to be able to incorporate real-time measurements from a variety of instruments and observations\u201d says Dr. V.Prakash, Director of the KSNDMC.\n\u201cTo us this is a challenging project as for the first time GIS is being used to ingest, model and disseminate disaster related data. ArcGISServer technology is most suited for this as it is able to \u201cmash-up\u201d real-time data, images and integrate the models as an \u201capplication service\u201d and serve the application (with data) on demand to a variety of platforms \u2013 web, hand-helds and also in paper maps. We are committed to make this project a unique bench-mark\u201d said Dr. Mukund Rao, President & COO, ESRI India.\nThis unique and first-of-its kind GIS Application project using ESRI software technology gives a new hope to GIS users in the world that GIS has a major role to play in Disaster Monitoring and dissemination. ESRI\nIndia envisages that this Karnataka project would serve as major reference within all the government agencies especially those who deal with dissemination and use imagery and related data information in the field of disaster management.",

        "raw_content": "Published: 12 Nov 2018 By Sarah O\u2019Connor\nWorld Mental Health Day last week brought news of a flurry of employer initiatives to combat stress, anxiety and depression among their staff. Companies put out press releases about their free fruit and lunchtime pilates classes.\nOne employer said its staff were being encouraged to ask each other, \u201cAre you OK?\u201d, twice, in case colleagues were more forthcoming when asked a second time. It all seems well-meaning, if a little clumsy. But the subtext to the \u201ccorporate wellness\u201d trend is troubling: employers have pulled off a remarkable feat of complacency, assuming they are the solution rather than part of the problem.\nIt is dangerous to generalise about mental health and the complex web of factors that affect it. But it is clear that one of the things that has a bearing on mental wellbeing is our work, where many of us spend half of our waking hours.\nIn Britain, the government funds a survey of UK workers every five years to keep track of how the quality of work is changing. The latest results show Britons are working harder than at any time in the past 25 years, to tighter deadlines and with less autonomy. A wealth of medical research shows a link between \u201chigh strain\u201d jobs, which combine high pressure with a lack of control, and cardiovascular disease, musculoskeletal problems, stress and depression. Worryingly for the nation\u2019s health, the survey suggests 20 per cent of women and 15 per cent of men were in high strain jobs last year, the highest percentage on record.\nThat would be a questionable price to pay for better economic growth, but the reality is worse: we are working harder for no gain at all. So-called work intensity is much higher in the UK than in France and Germany, but productivity is about a fifth lower and has barely improved for a decade. UK companies have underinvested in new technology relative to their peers, so staff might be having to work faster to make up for poor quality tools. Yet this becomes a vicious cycle. When companies run their employees into the ground, they become less willing to put in discretionary extra effort or suggest innovative ways of doing things better.\nThe costs of putting staff under too much strain ripple beyond the workplace into people\u2019s homes and families. In the UK, teachers are the most exhausted of all, a situation that will surely have knock-on effects on the quality of education for the next generation.\nIn extremis, people who become unwell may stop work altogether and will need to be supported by taxpayers. In the past, claimants of disability benefits were most commonly older men who had picked up physical health problems from working in mining or manufacturing. Now, about one in three new claims for disability benefits in developed countries come from people with mental health problems, according to the OECD.\nIn the UK, half of those who start claiming incapacity benefits have a mental health problem (most commonly depression, stress or anxiety) as their main health condition, up from less than one-third in 2000. Not all of these people have been made unwell by their jobs, but work will have been a contributory factor for some.\nEmployers who want to support mental health among their staff should start by asking questions, not by providing superficial solutions. Overworking your employees and then suggesting they meditate is a little like breaking their legs and then inviting them to a lunchtime class on how to make splints.\n\u201cEmployee engagement\u201d surveys, now commonplace in many companies, might offer management some clues. But the typical questions they ask of workers \u2014 \u201cAre you proud to work here?\u201d \u2014 seem to dance around the edges. It would be better to go for the jugular: \u201cHow often do you go home exhausted? How often in the past year have you cried in the toilets? Is your team understaffed?\u201d\nIf employers truly want to improve staff wellbeing, the answer isn\u2019t in the free fruit bowl. It\u2019s in the mirror.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Grape Varieties > The Cabernet Sauvignon Grape & Wine Production\nCabernet Sauvignon is the foremost classic red grape. Few would argue with its position as the noblest of all the world\u2019s grape varieties and it is, unquestionably, along with Chardonnay, the most marketable wine variety. The grape is also one of the most widely planted, used in almost all the wine growing regions around the world. Cabernet wines vary enormously in terms of quality, structure and maturity, and is characterised by its ability to transform from the unremarkable to the sublime with ageing. The finest examples can improve for decades and remain drinkable for a century.\nCabernet Sauvignon originates from the French region of Bordeaux, where it remains the principle grape used in many of the regions wines. Historically the Bordeaux red wines were the world\u2019s most prized Cabernets, especially those produced in the Medoc communes of Margaux, St.-Julien, Pauillac and St.-Estephe. Cabernet is still the main grape of Bordeaux reds, and is grown elsewhere in France, notably Languedoc-Rousillon.\nAlthough the grape requires a long growing season and produces low yields it has been exported successfully to the entire winemaking world. Top-class Cabernets are now regularly being made in California, Italy and Australia. Italian winemakers have traditionally been suspicious of Cabernet Sauvignon, and it appears in very few of the country\u2019s Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOCs). In Tuscany in the 1970s, despite its exclusion from the DOC system, the grape was used by a group of expert producers to make some outstanding wines know as the \u2018Super Tuscans\u2019. Fine examples of these include Sassicaia and Tignanello.\nIn California Cabernet Sauvignon has brilliantly adapted to climactic conditions that are very different than those of its rather temperamental and marginal Bordeaux homeland. In the last four decades acreage of Cabernet vines has increased dramatically, and California is now the biggest grower of the grape outside of Bordeaux. Distinguished wines are made in places such as Napa Valley and the warmer American Viticultural Area (AVA) of Sonoma County. Californian wines often use a combination of Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, blends used also used in Bordeaux. Ruby Cabernet is also added, often to the more commercial versions, to give structure, richness and accessibility.\nThe Cabernet Sauvignon vine produces small, dusty, black-blue berries with thick skins. This characteristically thick skin gives the variety very high tannin levels, which in turn give structure and enable long ageing of the wines. Cabernets are deeply coloured, full-bodied wines with notable tannins and well-defined aromas. The Old World wines, including those of Bordeaux, have bouquets filled with violets, blackcurrant, cedar and spice. New World wines made from the grape display the same scents but these are usually dominated by chocolate, ripe jammy berries, oak, pepper, earth, mushroom and cigar box. Notes of cassis, red cherry and blackberry define many of the Cabernet Sauvignons from warm regions. Cooler climates tend to emphasize greener, herbaceous aromas of capsicum and eucalyptus. Australian examples of the wine are full of eucalyptus fragrance, particularly those from Coonawarra.\nIn recent years studies have revealed the health benefits of drinking Cabernet Sauvignon. The grape has high levels of resveratrol - which increases levels of \"good\" cholesterol and slows production of \"bad\" cholesterol, therefore reducing the risk of heart disease. The same compound has also been found to reduce levels of certain peptides that cause Alzheimer\u2019s disease. So Cabernet Sauvignon is certainly one to remember!\nCabernet Sauvignon and Food\nCabernet Sauvignon goes well with red meat, casseroles and game. It goes with a number of cheeses: Try Cheddar; Couer de Neuf Chatel; Parmesan and Romano. New World Cabernet Sauvignons will go well with fatty and spicy meats, due to their robust nature.",

        "raw_content": "Can I Have only Part of a Tattoo Removed?\nWhen it comes to tattoo removal, one of the most commonly asked questions is whether it is possible to remove one colour, or one part of a tattoo while the rest of it remains intact. For instance, if you have a multicoloured tattoo with yellow, orange, and black colours, would it be possible to remove one colour without the desired parts becoming blurry?\nThe simple answer is yes. You can get one colour, one area, or the entire tattoo removed or covered up, owing to the accuracy of laser tattoo removal treatment.\nMore on Laser Tattoo Treatment\nThis process involves the selective absorption of extremely high peak power laser light pulses by the tattoo ink in the skin, which causes the targeted ink particles to disintegrate or break down mechanically while minimising potential damage to the surrounding tissues. After fragmentation of the particles, they are removed from the skin by the lymphatic system or the body\u2019s immune.\nFactors Affecting the Removal of Part of a Tattoo\nAlthough it is possible to remove part of a tattoo, the quality of the outcome is influenced by a number of factors including:\nThe laser operator\u2019s skill and experience is a major factor in the success of any tattoo removal procedure, which is why it is important to only work with a board certified dermatologist with expertise in laser tattoo removal.\nColour being removed \u2013 Certain inks and pigments are harder to remove compared to others, with black ink having the best response to laser tattoo removal. Other colours can also be removed, including red, brown, green, and blue, though lighter colours are much harder to remove compared to darker ones, with white being the hardest.\nIntensity of ink \u2013 When you have a tightly inked tattoo, it can become a little difficult to cleanly remove some parts of the tattoo without removing some of the parts you like, as well. In some instances, the dermatologist can target the areas that are unappealing since the spot size used is quite small.\nComplexity of the tattoo \u2013 Homemade tattoos are generally easy to remove because the depth of ink penetration is usually quite low.\nWhen it is difficult to remove part of the tattoo, your dermatologist can fade or lighten up some areas with a few treatments so it becomes possible for a replacement to be applied over top.\nIt is best to seek a full in-person consultation with a certified dermatologist so that the practitioner can give you an accurate idea of the ease or complexity of removing the part or colour you want to get rid of.",

        "raw_content": "\u201c . . . Let him who is received promise in the oratory, in the presence of all, before God and His saints, stability, the conversion of morals, and obedience, in order that, if he should ever do otherwise, he may know that he will be condemned by God \"Whom he mocketh.\" Let him make a written statement of his promise in the name of the saints whose relics are there, and of the Abbot there present. Let him write this document with his own hand; or at least, if he doth not know how to write, let another write it at his request, and let the novice make his mark, and with his own hand place it on the altar. When he hath placed it there, let the novice next begin the verse: \"Uphold me, O Lord, according to Thy word and I shall live; and let me not be confounded in my expectations\" (Ps 118[119]:116). Then let all the brotherhood repeat this verse three times, adding the Gloria Patri.\nThe let that novice brother cast himself down at the feet of all, that they may pray for him; and from that day let him be counted in the brotherhood. If he hath any property, let him first either dispose of it to the poor or bestow it on the monastery by a formal donation, reserving nothing for himself as indeed he should know that from that day onward he will no longer have power even over his own body.\nLet him, therefore, be divested at once in the oratory of the garments with which he is clothed, and be vested in the garb of the monastery. But let the clothes of which he was divested by laid by in the wardrobe to be preserved, that, if on the devil's suasion he should ever consent to leave the monastery (which God forbid) he be then stripped of his monastic habit and cast out. But let him not receive the document of his profession which the Abbot took from the altar, but let it be preserved in the monastery.\u201d Rule of Saint Benedict, Chapter 18.\nThis portion of the rule was read to us during our first day of our annual Oblate retreat. It describes the entry of a monk, not an Oblate to a monastery. I should note since the Rule has never been enforced literally, you won\u2019t see too many strip teases in the oratory. I also note Oblates, like monks do sign a letter of intent, on the altar, and leave it there in the care of God and the Abbey.\nLot\u2019s of things pop out at me from this section of the Rule, but the very last sentence hit me the hardest. Even if a monk or an oblate chooses to leave a monastery, something is left behind. In this case it is the original request the novice wrote asking to be admitted to the community. I have a feeling Benedict intended the presence of such a note, kept safely behind the abbey\u2019s walls, might be a tether drawing the former novice back to the community.\nOn reflecting on this reading, I realized there are many congregations where I have left some of my self behind; something that connects me to them no matter how far I wander in other places. In the very first church I ever attended, there is a prayer room containing a small pew, a kneeling pad, and the most awful illuminated picture of Jesus I have ever seen. But there is a sense of the divine in that room and I feel drawn back there after years have passed.\nThere have been other congregations where I was a member, and where I felt the formation of this permanent tie. Even though the congregation itself may no longer exist, the tie remains. I have also felt the tie in some congregations where I have served as a pastor. Regrettably there are also ones where the tie is completely absent.\nThe strongest tie to me is my tie to St. Benedict\u2019s Abbey. My original Oblation, the one I signed on the altar, is still there. But the connection goes deeper still. I feel connected through the rhythm of prayer and work, by the offering of Benedictine hospitality, by the love of the monks and oblates for God, and for so many reasons I cannot count them all. I have a sense this connection will be with me for eternity; drawing me always back to my spiritual home.\nIf you are looking for a place to worship, or if you\u2019re desperately trying to find something permanent that matters in this fast paced and too often frenetic world, check out a church of Jesus Christ. But look for one where something of yourself seems to be left behind. If you don't find it at first keep one looking! It'sWhen you find that place, the place you\u2019re drawn back again and again, you will have found your spiritual home. Don\u2019t put off looking for it. If my own experience is any guide, you won\u2019t find peace until you have found this place; this place where something of you remains forever. My prayer is that you will find it and embrace it soon.\nBrother Oscar Romeo, Obl OSB",

Reducing outdoor PM2.5 emissions (ambient air quality)\nExample of a TEOM used to measure\nPM10 or PM2.5 concentrations.\nReducing particulate matter emissions is a primary objective of most wood stove change-out programs, particularly those that focus on in or close to non-attainment. However, many past program managers that are included in the EPA\u2019s change-out case studies report that it is difficult to estimate how much of an impact the program had on improving ambient air quality. Most take fewer non-attainment days or an area moving out of PM2.5 non-attainment as a sign that the program was successful, but are cautious to attribute these results to the program and not to other factors. As ambient air quality varies seasonally, it is important to look at the long-term data before jumping to conclusions. In addition to comparing EPA PM2.5 measurements before and after the change-out program, some administrators and their partners use other models or techniques to estimate the program\u2019s impact on ambient air quality.\nTechniques: Estimating the PM2.5 emissions reductions achieved through a change-out program typically requires special knowledge, expertise, or equipment that goes beyond the skillset and budget of most program administrators. To help overcome these knowledge gaps, the EPA suggests that change-out programs partner with university or environmental research groups to help them conduct pre-and post-program air quality evaluations. Examples of past programs that have partnered with such groups include the Fairbanks, AK (University of Fairbanks) and Libby, MT (University of Montana) programs.\nIn addition, the EPA also provides estimation tools for Microsoft Excel and Access for program managers seeking to establish a baseline of wood smoke emissions and/or calculate the emissions reduced from a change-out program in this 2014 report. Required inputs include: percentage of people that burn wood in each appliance, number of occupied housing units, the amount of wood burned in each appliance, the density (moisture content) of the wood, the amount of emissions (per pollutant, in mass units) emitted per ton of wood burned, number of devices replaced or destroyed, and stove efficiency. A large list of residential wood burning surveys can be found here and an EPA sample can be found here.\nEquipment:Tapered element oscillating microbalances (TEOMs) were used to record ambient PM2.5 data in a 2006-2009 study of the Nez Perce Reservation change-out. The Libby, MT researchers used a spiral ambient speciation sampler (SASS) to collected 24 hour integrated ambient air samplers for several air pollutants, as well as Federal Reference Method samples to test for ambient PM2.5 emissions.\nResults:Academic journal articles that attempt to measure or model the effectiveness of change-out programs in terms of outdoor emissions reduction have been written for change-out programs in Fairbanks, Alaska (2008-2009) and Libby, Montana (2007-2008). One EPA report links stove change-out programs in Libby, MT (2005-2007) and Sacramento, CA (2008-2009) to reductions in fine particulate ambient pollution levels by 7 and 12 micrograms per cubic meter (\u00b5g/m\u00b3), respectively. Another study conducted in 2007-2008 found that the Libby\u2019s PM2.5 emissions were 20-28% lower than levels detected before the change-out in 2003-2004 (Ward et al., 2010).\n2. Reducing indoor pollution from wood smoke (indoor air quality)\nInstrument used for evaluating indoor air quality.\nImproving the indoor air quality of homes that heat with wood is often another goal and benefit of a wood stove change-out program, particularly those that focus on improving health for tribal, low-income, or other vulnerable residents. A program\u2019s effectiveness in this area can be measured through a before/after comparison of wood smoke-related air pollution levels inside a sampling of homes. As with outdoor air quality evaluations, it may be beneficial for change-out program managers to partner with universities or research groups to conduct scientific indoor air quality assessments. For example, an indoor air quality analysis of the Libby, Montana change-out program were conducted by a team of scientists from the University of Montana, University of Washington, and Colorado School of Mines.\nClaims that wood stove change-outs reduce indoor air quality by 70% are circulating with little substantiation. One area of future study is whether the age of the stove or the quality and type of the installation has more impact on indoor air quality. Poor draft is one of the biggest contributors to poor indoor air quality, as it can lead to back puffing in old and new stoves. Poor draft is common, for instance, in mobile home installations, where the stack may be only 10 feet tall, far below the height that the stove was designed for and tested with. Adding 5 feet of stovepipe could likely be a better indoor air mitigation measure than replacing the stove \u2013 if that is a main goal.\nTechniques: We recommend that those who are interested in studying the effects of a change-out program on indoor air quality consult the existing literature (provided at the end of the article) for tips on study design. A few best practices we picked out include only using non-smoking homes in the sample and conducting 24 hour measures every three days for the length of the sampling program, as specified in the EPA ambient air monitoring guidelines. In addition, those who would like to compare their indoor PM2.5 concentration results with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for PM2.5 should consider using a Federal Reference Method (FRM) sampler (Ward et al., 2015).\nEducating homeowners on proper appliance use has been found to be critical for improving indoor air quality in homes that swap old, uncertified wood stoves for certified wood stoves (Ward et al., 2011). The 2006-2009 Nez Perce Reservation study found that 5 out of 16 homes tested had higher PM2.5 levels than they had prior to the change-out, some of which was attributed to residents burning wet wood, drying wood on top of the stove, and improper burning techniques (leaving the door cracked and opening the draft too much). The indoor air quality in these homes greatly improved when residents received additional training on proper stove use. The EPA recommends following-up with households two to three weeks after the stove replacement to see how well the residents are adjusting to their new device and to help answer questions about its proper use. Scientists should then return to the homes in a month to conduct a full indoor air quality assessment.\nEquipment: There are multiple instruments and methods that can be used to measure indoor air quality. A 2006-2009 study of a change-out program on the Nez Perce Reservation in Idaho used portable DustTrack samplers and Leland pumps to measure indoor concentrations of PM2.5, organic carbon, elemental carbon, and chemical markets of wood smoke, while a 2007-2008 British Columbia study used single-stage Harvard Impactors and Leland pumps.\nResults: Academic studies have shown that change-out programs have lowered indoor PM2.5 concentrations by an average of 71% in Libby, Montana (2005-2007) and 36% in the Nez Perce Reservation in Idaho (2006-2009), although no change was reported for a community in British Columbia, Canada (2007-2008). All three studies sampled a total of 17 homes, but the Nez Perce and had more compatible methodologies. A follow-up study of the Libby, Montana change-out, which included more post-change-out data, found the average indoor PM2.5 concentration reduction to be 53% for 21 homes, with five homes reporting no reduction in emissions.\n3. Achieving program objectives cost-effectively (financial analysis)\nTable comparing a sample of change-out programs with disclosed budgets.\nFinancial analyses are vital for stove change-out programs to offer more cost-effective incentives for replacing stoves year-to-year. We found that stove change-out programs have spent an average of anywhere from $150 to $3,600 per stove removed (with a median around $1,000), based on reported figures. However, it\u2019s difficult to compare the financial performance of change-out programs as it is not always clear whether the program\u2019s budget includes administrative, advertising, or education costs or only represents the total amount of incentives given to participants.\nHowever, it is also worth mentioning that a low cost to trade-out ratio is not the only marker of a \u2018good\u2019 or effective change-out program. Many programs are specifically aimed at helping their lower-income residents replace their uncertified at little or no cost to them; in this case, it would make sense that the program would spend more money per stove. Moreover, programs that offer very low incentives (e.g., $100-$250) may become inundated with applications of residents who ultimately do not complete the change-out, resulting in an inefficient use of administrator time and resources. One change-out program manager noted that the percentage of applicants who redeemed their rebate more than doubled when the program began to provide higher incentive amounts ($750-$2,000).\nLibby, Montana is an example of a program that replaced uncertified stoves with EPA certified stoves at no cost to many of the residents, while others received $1,050 rebates. The 2007-2008 program had an overall budget of $2,683,700 and replaced 1,130 stoves for an average cost of $2,375 per stove. A 2007-2008 change-out program in the Makah Reservation in Washington State had a budget of $115,952 and replaced 45 stoves at full cost at an average of $2,576 per stove. In contrast, a 2009-2010 program in Keene, New Hampshire had a budget of $141,000 and replaced 87 stoves for an average cost of $1,621 per stove (the program offered participants $1,000 to $3,000 rebates).\nTechniques: A 2015 report on the (2007-2013) British Columbia Wood Stove Exchange Program provides the most detailed and comprehensive stove change-out program evaluation we could find online. The report, which was written by a sustainability consultancy firm, includes a breakdown and analysis of the program\u2019s allocation of funds, its efficiency in accomplishing its objectives, and its overall effectiveness. The report also contains a chart comparing the program\u2019s performance with the Alliance for Green Heat\u2019s list of best change-out practices and previous programs.\nResults: An environmental consulting agency was hired by EPA to conduct a financial analysis on the best wood smoke reduction options for low-earning households in Pierce County, Washington. Part of the analysis involved assessing the effectiveness of the existing change-out program (2007-2013) in reaching this target group. The report revealed that program participation rates for this group were only 5% in 2013, and ultimately concluded, using their model, that a program which provided 100% of the cost of replacing an uncertified wood device would be the more cost-effective option for lowering wood smoke without burdening low-earning households.\n4. Monitoring stakeholder and participant satisfaction\nSurveys or interviews are often used to obtain\nstakeholder feedback on change-out programs.\nStakeholder surveys are low-cost and can be undertaken by even the smallest change-out program. Stakeholders should include a 360-degree perspective, and include funders, local experts, groups who may be vehemently opposed to wood burning, etc. Several programs, such as Keene, NH (2009-2010), have utilized surveys to gauge participant satisfaction with the program. The Keene program also partnered with students and faculty from an environmental health program at a local college to help conduct phone interviews with participants about their home heating use. Students and faculty also monitored the area\u2019s air quality and conducted visual surveys of surrounding areas to help collect data useful for deciding whether to expand the change-out program.\nA sample stakeholder survey can be found on pages 43-46 of the British Columbia Wood Stove Exchange Program Evaluation Report. The report groups survey questions into categories for local coordinators, local government staff, local government officials, participating retailers, industry, environmental NGOs, lung association staff, and air quality staff. The questions are open-ended and are tailored for gathering data on program effectiveness and future program recommendations.\n5. Program evaluation recommendations for program administrators\nIdeally, program monitoring should take place before, during, and after the stove change-out program, but much of this depends on the budget and scope of the change-out. The exact type of monitoring will be dependent on the program\u2019s own specific objectives and the kind of resources it has or expects to have available. For example, if a program is not concerned with improving indoor air quality, there is little reason to conduct these assessments.\nBefore the program:Ambient air quality should be tested before the program begins to create a baseline for judging future performance. Local hearth retailers, chimney sweeps, and community members should additionally be consulted to ascertain the number and type of wood burning devices purchased in recent years, as well as how often people have their appliances cleaned, and how many cords of wood people tend to burn. This sort of information is also useful for designing targeted education and outreach campaigns.\nDuring the program:As the program continues, administrators should consistently monitor the amount of applications they receive and/or the number of rebates vouchers they issue. Weekly follow-ups with partners are helpful for knowing how to adjust the program as it unfolds.\nAfter the program: After the program (or a phase) ends, we recommend that program administrators conduct a financial analysis, post-air quality test, and stakeholder satisfaction survey. As a final step, the report that offers an evaluation of the program, recommendations for future programs, and any lessons learned should be posted and publicly available.\nWhile it is preferable (for objectivity and other reasons) to leave the post-program evaluation to a third-party like a consulting firm, it is also possible for program administrators or their partners to conduct the assessment more cheaply in-house. For example, the final reports for the Libby, Montana (2007-2008), Keene, NH (2009-2010), and Makah, WA (2007-2008) change-out programs were conducted by program administrators or their partners (e.g., HBPA). The British Columbia post-program evaluation included the following tasks (page 4-5), which other programs can emulate:\nDocument the program by reviewing program related records\nDesign an evaluation framework to assess the program using qualitative and quantitative inputs\nConduct interviews and surveys with a wide range of stakeholders\nSupplement with literature review and web research to provide context and comparisons\nSummarize, analyze, develop recommendations, and report outcomes to improve future programs\nFurther examples of final program reports can be found in the references section below.\nOutdoor air quality:\nNoonan, C.

Here is this week\u2019s reading from the gospel of John:\nOn the third day there was a marriage at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; Jesus also was invited to the marriage, with his disciples. When the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, \"They have no wine.\" And Jesus said to her, \"O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come.\" His mother said to the servants, \"Do whatever he tells you.\" Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to them, \"Fill the jars with water.\" And they filled them up to the brim. He said to them, \"Now draw some out, and take it to the steward of the feast.\" So they took it. When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, \"Every man serves the good wine first; and when men have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.\" This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.\nHere is Buechner\u2019s sermon entitled \u201cThe Wedding at Cana\u201d, from The Hungering Dark.\nLike so much of the Gospel of John, the story of the wedding at Cana has a curious luminousness about it, the quality almost of a dream where every gesture, every detail, suggests the presence of meaning beneath meaning, where people move with a kind of ritual stateliness, faces melting into other faces, voices speaking words of elusive but inexhaustible significance. It is on the third day that the wedding takes place; the third day that Jesus comes to change the water into wine, and in the way of dreams the number 3 calls up that other third day when just at daybreak, in another way and toward another end, Jesus came and changed despair into rejoicing. There are the six stone jars, and you wonder why six\u2014some echo half-heard of the six days of creation perhaps, the six days that preceded the seventh and holiest day, God's day. And the cryptic words that Jesus speaks to his mother with their inexplicable sharpness, their foreshadowings of an hour beyond this hour in Cana of astonished gladness and feasting, of a final hour that was yet not final. But beyond the mystery of what it means, detail by detail, level beneath level, maybe the most important part of a dream is the part that stays with you when you wake up from it.\nIt can be a sense of revulsion at some hidden ugliness laid bare. It can be a kind of aching homesickness for some beauty that existed only in the dream. There are dreams which it is impossible to remember anything about at all except that they were good dreams and that we are somehow the better for having dreamed them. But taking this story in John as a dream, I think that what we carry from it most powerfully is simply a feeling for the joy of it\u2014a wedding that almost flopped except that then this strange, stern guest came and worked a miracle and it turned out to be the best wedding of all. Certainly it is because of the joy of it that it is remembered in the marriage service.\nBut joy or no joy, people also cry at weddings. It is part of the tradition. Women are said to cry especially, all dressed up in their white gloves and their best hats with the tears running down, but I have known grown men to cry too and sometimes even the minister forgets to worry about whether his robe is straight and whether the best man has remembered the ring and has to hold tight to his prayer book to keep down the lump in his own throat. Sometimes the tears are good tears, tears as a response to the mystery not only of human love but of human finitude, the transience of things; but more often than not, I suspect, the tears that are shed at weddings are not to be taken too seriously because they are mainly sentimental tears, and although I suppose that they do little harm, I would be surprised to hear that they ever did much good. To be sentimental is to react not so much to something that is happening as to your own reaction to something that is happening, so that when a person cries sentimentally, what he is really crying at very often is the pathos of his own tears. When we shed tears at a wedding, our tears are likely to have a great deal less to do with the bride and groom than with all the old dreams or regrets that the bride and groom have occasioned in us. In our sentimentality, we think, \"How wonderful that they are going to live happily ever after,\" or \"How terrible that they are never going to be so happy again,\" and then we relate it all to our own happiness or our own lost happiness and weep eloquently at ourselves. It is all innocent enough, surely, except that it keeps us just one step further than we already are, and God knows that is far enough, from the reality of what is going on outside our own skins; and the reality of what is going on outside our own skins is the reality of other people with all their dreams and regrets, their happiness, the pathos not of ourselves for once but of them.\nThe reality of the bride and groom, which is also their joy, is of course that they love each other; but whereas sentimentality tends to stop right there and have a good cry, candor has to move on with eyes at least dry enough to see through. They love each other indeed, and in a grim world their love is a delight to behold, but love as a response of the heart to loveliness, love as primarily an emotion, is only part of what a Christian wedding celebrates, and beyond it are levels that sentimentality cannot see. Because the promises that are given are not just promises to love the other when the other is lovely and lovable, but to love the other for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, and that means to love the other even at half-past three in the morning when the baby is crying and to love each other with a terrible cold in the head and when the bills have to be paid. The love that is affirmed at a wedding is not just a condition of the heart but an act of the will, and the promise that love makes is to will the other's good even at the expense sometimes of its own good\u2014and that is quite a promise.\nWhether the bride and groom are to live happily ever after or never to be so happy again depends entirely on how faithfully, by God's grace, they are able to keep that promise, just as the happiness of us all depends on how faithfully we also are able to keep such promises, and not just to a husband or a wife, because even selfless love when it is limited to that can become finally just another kind of self-centeredness with two selves in the center instead of one and all the more impregnable for that reason.\nDostoevski describes Alexei Karamazov falling asleep and dreaming about the wedding at Cana, and for him too it is a dream of indescribable joy, but when he wakes from it he does a curious thing. He throws himself down on the earth and embraces it. He kisses the earth and among tears that are in no way sentimental because they are turned not inward but outward he forgives the earth and begs its forgiveness and vows to love it forever. And that is the heart of it, after all, and matrimony is called holy because this brave and fateful promise of a man and a woman to love and honor and serve each other through thick and thin looks beyond itself to more fateful promises still and speaks mightily of what human life at its most human and its most alive and most holy must always be.\nA dream is a compression of time where the dreamer can live through a whole constellation of events in no more time than it takes a curtain to rustle in the room where he sleeps. In dreams time does not flow on so much as it flows up, like water from a deep spring. And in this way every wedding is a dream, and every word that is spoken there means more than it says, and every gesture\u2014the clasping of hands, the giving of rings\u2014is rich with mystery. Part of the mystery is that Christ is there as he was in Cana once, and the joy of a wedding, and maybe even sometimes the tears, are a miracle that he works. But when the wedding feast was over, he set his face toward Jerusalem and started out for the hour that had not yet come but was to come soon enough, the hour when he too was to embrace the whole earth and water it with more than his tears.\nAnd so it was also, we hope, with the bride and groom at Cana and with every bride and groom\u2014that the love they bear one another and the joy they take in one another may help them grow in love for this whole troubled world where their final joy lies, and that the children we pray for them may open them to the knowledge that all men are their children even as we are their children and as they also are ours.\nHoly Lord God,\nThine is this fair world in all its splendor, but ours is the freedom to destroy thy world. Thine is the beginning and the end of all our lives, but ours are our lives themselves, to hoard in misery or to give away in joy. Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, but ours is the ear that is deaf, the tongue that is mute, the eye that is blind. Thine is the Christ, but ours is the cross he died upon.\nHave mercy upon us. Have mercy upon all to whom we ourselves show little mercy\u2014the unloving and the unbeautiful, the bitter and the lonely, the very slow, the very old.\nHave mercy upon those who love and who in their love are beautiful, for they too are often forgotten by us, their joy itself a barrier between their lives and ours.\nO Lord, in sorrow and in joy open thou our lives to one another that we may live. Open thou our lives to thee that even in dying we may never die.\nNewer PostWeekly Sermon Illustration: Body of Christ\nOlder PostWeekly Sermon Illustration: The Wise Man",

        "raw_content": "The Real Article\nTHE OTHER PART OF my experience as a Christian that I tried to deal with in The Final Beast was the experience of prayer, and . . I drew directly from an event in my own life. A year or so before writing the book, I took two or three days off to attend a series of seminars on prayer conducted by an Episcopal laywoman named Agnes Sanford, who was recommended to me by a friend as a fascinating and deeply spiritual woman who had had remarkable success as a faith healer. \"Spiritual\" was another of those words that I always choked on a little, and faith-healing was something I associated with charlatans and the lunatic fringe; but since my friend had only recently left the college chaplaincy to become a Jungian analyst, I couldn't dismiss him as easily taken in, so I decided to accept his recommendation and go.\nI saw Agnes Sanford first in the dingy front hall of the building where the talks were to take place, and after no more than a few minutes' conversation with her, I felt as sure as you can ever be in such matters that if there was such a thing as the Real Article in her line of work, then that was what she was. She was rather short and on the plump side with a breezy matter-of-factness about her which was the last thing I would have expected. She had far more the air of a college dean or a successful businesswoman than of a Mary Baker Eddy or Madam Blavatsky. She seemed completely without pretensions, yet just as completely confident that she knew what she was talking about. She had an earthy sense of humor.\nThe most vivid image she presented was of Jesus standing in church services all over Christendom with his hands tied behind his back and unable to do any mighty works there because the ministers who led the services either didn't expect him to do them or didn't dare ask him to do them for fear that he wouldn't or couldn't and that their own faith and the faith of their congregations would be threatened as the result. I recognized immediately my kinship with those ministers. A great deal of public prayer seemed to me a matter of giving God something that he neither needed nor, as far as I could imagine, much wanted. In private I prayed a good deal but for the most part it was a very blurred, haphazard kind of business\u2014much of it blubbering, as Dr. Muilenburg had said his was, speaking words out of my deepest needs, fears, longings, but never expecting much back by way of an answer, never believing very strongly that anyone was listening to me or even, at times, that there was anyone to listen at all.\nThat was the whole point, Agnes Sanford said. You had to expect. You had to believe. As in Jesus' parables of the Importunate Friend and the Unjust Judge, you had to keep at it. It took work. It took practice, was in that sense not unlike the Buddhist Eightfold Path. More than anything else, it took faith. It was faith that unbound the hands of Jesus so that through your prayers his power could flow and miracles could happen, healing could happen, because where faith was, healing always was too, she said, and there was no power on earth that could prevent it. Inside us all, she said, there was a voice of doubt and disbelief which sought to drown out our prayers even as we were praying them, but we were to pray down that voice for all we were worth because it was simply the product in us of old hurts, griefs, failures, of all that the world had done to try to destroy our faith. More even than our bodies, she said, it was these hurtful memories that needed healing. For God, all time is one, and we were to invite Jesus into our past as into a house that has been locked up for years\u2014to open windows and doors for us so that light and life could enter at last, to sweep out the debris of decades, to drive back the shadows. The healing of memories was like the forgiveness of sins, she said. Prayer was like a game, a little ridiculous the way she described it, but we were to play it anyway\u2014praying for the healing both of ourselves and others\u2014because Jesus told us to and because most of the other games we played were more ridiculous still and not half so useful.\nWe were to believe in spite of not believing. That was what faith was all about, she told us. \"Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief,\" said the father of the sick son (Mark 9:24), and though it wasn't much, Jesus considered it enough. The boy was healed. Fairy-tale prayers, she called them. Why not? Jesus prayers. The language of the prayer didn't matter, and her own language couldn't have been plainer or her prayers more unliterary and down-to-earth. Only the faith mattered. All of this she spoke with nothing wild-eyed or dramatic about her, but clearly, wittily, less like a mystic than like the president of a rather impressive club. And you could also get too much praying, too much religion, she said, and when that happened, the thing to do was just to put it aside for a while as she did and do something else. She herself read murder mysteries, she said. Or just collapsed.\nNewer PostWhat's Good About Religion?\nOlder Post\"Cultured Despisers\"",

        "raw_content": "We make holidays. Have been doing so since 1991 when we graduated from Faculty of Tourism & Hotel Managment in Cairo.\nWe have 2 sister companies, so do not be alarmed when you see the following two names; Gateway To Egypt & Great Wonders of Egypt.\nThis website is owned & managed by Great Wonders of Egypt.\nWe like creativity. It is great fun and challenging to create a new tour, I mean, what more can you do? As a matter of fact we can\u2026\nWe worked as tour guides / manages & Egyptologists for some the most famous in the industry. By 2005 we had it with traditional tourism and we thought we have pretty cool ideas. So we started Gateway To Egypt. Through the years we managed to create some cool Nile Adventures. Almost annually we come up with a new concept tour.\nGateway To Egypt for Tourism Marketing and Responsible Travel Management is involved in all forms of tourism. The Founders of the company each bring distinct individual expertise and background to the company, providing a unique mix of Egyptology, History, Travel & Tourism. We decided to make use of our travel experiences under one mission promoting and developing responsible tourism with no limits as all forms of tourism ( leisure or corporate ) should be responsible. We realized that this can be achieved by establishing a policy of cultural economic development that makes use of archaeological and cultural resources for alleviating poverty with monitoring the social and symbolic implications of such endeavors.\nThe first stage targeted the individual traveler. We were encouraged with the fact that we have lived in and traveled to most of the Arab & Middle East countries which gives us an insider\u2019s view of these countries.\nSince then we have one mission: Help travelers to fulfill their aims of their visit to Egypt and the Middle East through delving beyond the surface of these treasured places to explore the hidden riches unique to each. We believe that when the traveler uncovers behind-the-scenes culture, history, art, architecture, cuisine, and peoples of each locale, this would be the peak of their experience.\nTo ensure that we really serve the traveler we accompany them through every step of planning their trip and during their trip and help him unveil the splendors of these countries\nThrough out the years we have built an extensive network of resources in these countries with people, establishments and organizations who share with us the same vision. Our trusted resources allow us to offer the traveler access at private collections, museums, universities, galleries and finest cultural institutions. It also allowed us to gain the trust of the local communities of the various districts in these countries and gain their trust as their supporters and developers of their communities rather than be regarded as invaders of their valued varied heritage which allowed our travelers to break the cultural barrier and exchange cultural details with the communities they visit.\nThe second stage was expanding to corporate travel services and events planning and management. From the beginning Gateway To Egypt has maintained a unique commitment to provide the highest level of personalized service to all of it\u2019s clients. This was supported by our long-standing relationships with hoteliers, tour operators, and tourism officials.We negotiate air, hotel and ground transportation contracts for our corporate and conference clients that match or surpass those of the mega-travel companies.\nGateway To Egypt has committed itself from the beginning to provide service, value and customer satisfaction second to none.",

        "raw_content": "April Potpourri: Staying Out of the Legal and Identity-Revealing Swamps, Plus Some More Freebies\nI have a close relative who has kept boxes and boxes of utility bills dating back 34 years, from a house she no longer owns. The paperwork is useless, space-consuming, and a fire hazard. And someday, we survivors will have to sort through them to find what we do need. By putting it off, the legal swamp she\u2019s creating could suffocate us.\n5 Legal Documents You Need to Have Now if Not Sooner\nAre you someone who says, \u201cI really need to get my legal affairs in order,\u201d but then you don\u2019t? If you\u2019re like most of us, the mere idea of it makes you tired. You feel like you\u2019ve got plenty of time. Tomorrow is soon enough. Of course, if something happens before you get your paperwork together, you could leave an unthinkable mess for your survivors. Before you say, \u201cwhy would I care, I won\u2019t be here anyway,\u201d ask yourself, would you want to be on the receiving end of a mess like that?\nWhat should you do? Jim Miller is a regular on the \u201cToday Show,\u201d the author of a book called The Savvy Senior, and writes a column called \u201cSavvy Living.\u201d Maybe you don\u2019t have the energy to go through decades of utility bills. But according to Miller, there are five legal documents that are essential for you to get together while you are able.\nThey protect both you and your family. Without them, your end-of-life wishes and plans may go by the wayside and result in conflict among your family and doctors.\nHere\u2019s what Miller recommends:\nA will, to direct the distribution of your assets to friends, family, or a charity of your choice. Your will should include the appointment of an executor to handle your wishes, and a guardian if you have dependent children.\nA revocable living trust, if you own real estate and or considerable assets. This acts similar to a will but avoids the time and expense of probate, and keeps your estate private. Remember, probate is public.\nDurable power of attorney, lets you designate someone you trust make financial, tax, and legal decisions if you are not able to make those decisions (for example, if you suffered a debilitating stroke).\nand 5. Advance health care directives. This includes two documents that specify what your wishes are regarding end-of-life treatment. The first document is a living will, which instructs your doctor what kind of care you wish to have if you are incapacitated. The second is a health care power of attorney, which authorizes someone to make medical decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. Miller says you can do an advance health care directive for free, by logging onto caringinfo.org or call 800-658-8898; alternatively, for $5 the Five Wishes document (agingwithdignity.org or call 888-594-7437). This is available in 42 states and you\u2019ll get help creating this important document.\nIf your finances are complex \u2013 for example if you have a great many assets or are part of a blended family \u2013 Miller recommends that you should have an attorney help you. Depending on where you live, Millers says to expect costs of between $200 and $1,000 for a will, and $1,200 to $5,000 for a living trust. To find an attorney go to one of these two websites:\nactec.org (that\u2019s the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel).\nor naela.org (the Elder Law Attorneys).\nFinally, says Miller, if money is a problem, check with your state's bar association (see findlegalhelp.org) to find low-cost legal help in your area or call the Eldercare Locator at 800-677-1116 for a referral.\nWho\u2019s Tracking Where You Go on the Computer?\nThere\u2019s big money in violating your privacy. Companies will pay a bundle to learn about you, what you might buy. Here\u2019s an example: You look at barbecues online, just browsing. Very soon, you just happen to get an email message displaying\u2026 what else? Barbecues. It\u2019s probably not a coincidence. More likely than not, you\u2019re being followed.\nThe operator of a website called Lifehacker.com worked for a business that designs programs to collect information from you. It offers coupons or discounts, if you\u2019d just be so kind as to fill out an online form.\nSome of them want a great many details: What do you eat? What kind of deodorant do you prefer? What is your income? How many people live in your house, and what are their ages? And more. For providing all that, they give you a $1 off coupon, and what do they get? They now have valuable marketing information which they sell to third parties. And the solicitations begin.\nThe tech pro from Lifehacker.com said if you are going to take the bait, remember you are in charge of what information you provide. If a site asks for your phone number, change one digit. If they ask your birthday, do the same. I have often entered my birthday one digit up on the month, day, and year. For example, if my birth month is June 1, I say July 2. Same with the year. Unless it\u2019s an official site where you are legally bound to provide accurate information, it\u2019s up to you.\nNOTE: Also, when you leave a site, don\u2019t merely exit and go to another site. Instead, use the \u201clog off\u201d key up in the corner. Whether or not that helps your security is uncertain, but it seems like a small step to take to close a door you don\u2019t want left open.\nMore Birthday Freebies, and Some Freebies for Signing Up!\nEvery month I post a few birthday freebies.

        "raw_content": "Is Estate Planning Irrelevant Since the New Tax Law Passed?\nThe bottom line is, things are changing so don\u2019t roll the dice by failing to pull out whatever insurance policies and trusts you have in place to make sure they still protect you and represent how you want to protect your assets and your beneficiaries.\nWith the new estate/gift tax exemptions at a record high \u2014 $11.18 million for an individual and $22.36 million for a married couple \u2014 you might think you have no need for an estate planner. Think again. You may not have to decide who gets your money, or work to reduce your taxable estate. But no matter how high the exemption goes, that alone doesn\u2019t begin to resolve all the estate planning issues that taxpayers face.\nIf you have a will, you\u2019re doing better than most. As of 2017, only 41% of Americans had estate planning documents in place, according to a study published in Caring.com. But if you\u2019re married and/or have children, you\u2019ll need a flexible trust to protect them from creditors and predators.\nThe record-high estate tax exemption may seem comforting, but it could expire after 2025 depending on which party is in the White House and holds Congress. If that happens, the exemption could fall back to roughly $5 million. Five million may still sound like a lot (it does to me!) but if you have a family business or a large amount of property, your heirs could find themselves selling those assets just to pay the estate tax (currently 40%).\nIf you remember, George W. Bush wanted to repeal the estate tax completely, and he did, for one year (2010) before existing law revived it. The Obama administration proposed reducing the exemption to $2.5 million, which didn\u2019t happen, and experts say is unlike in the future. But as leadership in the Oval Office changes, nothing can be taken for granted.\nThe bottom line is, things are changing so don\u2019t roll the dice by failing to pull out whatever insurance policies and trusts you have in place to make sure they still protect you and represent how you want to protect your assets and your beneficiaries. If your life insurance trusts were established when the estate tax exemption was $1 million, do they still make sense for what you have planned? If the trust has been around for a while, you may no longer remember what it involves. In more than 20 states an old trust can be merged into a new trust (called \u201cdecanting\u201d), which can make it easier to update the provisions of an old trust and repurpose it if that\u2019s your goal.\nAre the Choices You Made the Same Choices You\u2019d Make Today?\nWhile you\u2019re reviewing old documents with your financial planner, take another look at the beneficiaries you\u2019ve chosen. This includes insurance policies, retirement plans, payable on death or transferable on death bank accounts, and any other plan with a beneficiary. If life changes (divorce, remarriage, death of a loved one, additions to the family, estrangement from a previously named beneficiary) have caused a change of heart, change the beneficiary while you can.\nWith the new estate exemption is also a matching gift exemption, of $11.18 million for an individual or $22.36 million for a married couple. The annual gift amount is $15,000. If your elderly loved one has given a durable power of attorney (POA) to someone, it\u2019s a good idea to review that choice. The ultra-high gift exemption can be misused by an unscrupulous POA agent if that person has the right to make gifts. What can you do? With the elder, talk to his/her estate planning attorney about updating the power of attorney with a provision that maintains some control over gifts.\nWhatever you do, don\u2019t put off these critical tasks.

There are many health benefits to losing even just a few pounds. Knowing what is at stake for your health and what can be gained from losing weight should help you get the motivation you need in order to get started. Aside from the benefits that are going to be listed below, there are many supplements you can purchase online that will help you get to your weight loss goal easier, such as the ones found at thinco.me. Through this reputable company, you can buy weight loss tablets online that will help you on your journey.\nHealth Benefits To Consider\nLike mentioned earlier, you don\u2019t have to lose a lot of weight in order to start seeing the many health benefits that come with the number going down on your scale. Just a small amount of weight loss can improve a person\u2019s overall health. Some of the main health benefits you may receive from losing a few pounds can include a decreased risk from diabetes, better cholesterol levels, less joint pain, lower blood pressure and an improvement in your mobility.\nOn top of the many health benefits you will gain from losing some weight, you are also going to notice some lifestyle benefits as you slim down as well. There has been much research conducted on the positive outcomes received by those losing weight have experienced. Some of these areas of improvement include having more energy, feeling happier, decrease in stress levels and more confidence. Additionally, many who have lost significant weight report having an improved sex life, an improvement in vitality and a more active and fun social life.\nAs mentioned in the last benefit paragraph, many who have lost weight report that they have social benefits on top of the lifestyle and health benefits. For most people, the lifestyle and medical benefits are enough to keep them on track and stay motivated. For some, however, an improvement in a relationship may be the driving force behind starting a diet. Social benefits of dieting and losing weight can get a little tricky. While it is always a good idea to be constantly working on the relationships in your life, losing weight for a relationship is not always the smartest idea. Typically, a relationship that is in trouble has to do more with just someone\u2019s weight. This is why no weight loss journey should be based solely on this type of benefit alone.\nEnjoying The Extra Benefits\nWanting to get healthier is a good enough reason for anyone to try and lose weight. While the extra benefits are just icing on the cake, many people enjoy the smaller benefits of losing weight such as being able to buy smaller clothing sizes. The ability to buy things that you never thought you could before can be very exciting. If your weight was out of control before, you know how hard it can be trying to keep up with buying clothes as the pounds continue to be put on. It can be really expensive to gain weight, unfortunately.\nAs you can see, there are countless reasons to consider losing weight and sticking to a diet plan. The only thing left to do after losing weight is trying to figure out how to enjoy the many benefits that you have gained. If you decide that these reasons are enough to start your weight loss journey, there is no better time than now to get started on your journey. The sooner you begin, the sooner you will hit your goals. Try to make your first weight loss goal a reasonable one. Attaining smaller goals in the beginning will keep you on track and motivated to reach the bigger goals in the long run.\nAuthor opo coxPosted on July 24, 2018 Categories Weight Loss\nPrevious Previous post: Fitness Instructor\nNext Next post: Protein Shake Diet plan Program For Weight Loss That Works Best",

        "raw_content": "The mission of the Haitian Chocolate Project is to create U.S. demand for Haitian grown chocolate in a manner that builds capacity and infrastructure in Haiti.\nHaiti has the potential to produce world class chocolate and through this create more Haitian jobs and sustainable economic development. Unfortunately, the historic lack of capital and infrastructure in Haiti has prevented high quality Haitian chocolate from being produced. Additionally, the exploitative purchasing practices of cacao speculators has forced farmers to take low prices for their cacao, from which chocolate is made. The Haitian Chocolate Project is a collaboration of experts across the chocolate supply chain who are seeking to change that.\n1. Increase awareness and demand for high quality Haitian grown chocolate, especially with U.S. consumers.\nIn many ways, chocolate is like wine. Different varieties, soils and growing practices can have significant influence on the final product. Growing conditions in Haiti share much with that of the Dominican Republic, a highly sought after origin for chocolate. In some expert opinions, Haiti's soil and conditions are even more ideal for creating a rich and flavorful cacao. Unfortunately, Haiti's recent history has prevented it from sharing its unique and special chocolate with the world. As a result, chocolate consumers, even specialty, craft chocolate consumers are unaware of Haiti has an origin for outstanding chocolate. By building awareness of the quality of Haitian cacao, we can help a wider audience appreciate and continue to seek out this excellent type of chocolate.\n2. Reduce the number of intermediaries between farmers and consumers and ensure that Haitian cacao farmers receive a bigger piece of the pie (or in this case, chocolate bar).\nIt is unfortunately common in food production that farmers are the least rewarded participants in the production process. This is typically because of a high number of intermediaries between the farmer and the finished product, and because much of the value is created in the final stages of processing. Chocolate is no exception. Paying farmers better prices for high quality beans is just first step. In order for chocolate to be a truly transformative means of economic development, farmers and farmer cooperatives must be more involved in the actual process of making chocolate.",

Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis are 2 types of dialysis methods available in India.\nKidney Dialysis (Haemodialysis) Hospitals in Ahmedabad\nHemodialysis is further classified into 3 types:\nNocturnal Hemodialysis - Nocturnal hemodialysis involves providing dialysis to the patient for 6 nights a week, when he is sleeping. This type of dialysis provides health and lifestyle benefits because the patient gets more time to relax. The nocturnal dialysis schedule does not interfere with the patient's social or work life, which is the biggest benefit.\nConventional Hemodialysis - This type of dialysis is given to the patient thrice a week. The process involves connecting a dialyzer to the patient's body and extracting blood for filtering it and then returning it to the patient's body.\nDaily Hemodialysis - This type of dialysis is the method of administering dialysis to the patient in the confines of his own home. It is given 6 days per week.\nIf you are a patient undergoing dialysis for smooth functioning of kidney, then read on to find out the dietary changes you need to implement to make the dialysis more effective, as certain foods have the capacity to increase or decrease the effectiveness of dialysis. Following are the restrictions can benefit you.\nSalt intake - Reduce salt intake as that will prevent fluctuation of weight between dialysis sessions.\nProtein intake - Ensure that you consume 8-10 ounces of protein sources on a daily basis.\nCarbohydrate intake - Rich sources of carbohydrates are breads, cereals and food grains. Carbohydrate intake does not need to be regulated unless you want to lose weight.\nPotassium intake - Intake of fruits containing high levels of potassium like oranges, bananas, melons etc. should be restricted. Whereas, fruits like apple, pineapple, plum, grapes, peach etc. can be consumed through juices and raw slices.",

She was a big fan of the national storytelling program and had attended its Boston events at coffee shops and comedy clubs.\nBut when she reached out to the nonprofit, which is based in New York, she learned there was already an event planned in Portsmouth around the same time. Organizers weren\u2019t enthused by the idea of holding another nearby.\n\u201cBut the people at The Moth said, \u2018Listen. You can go ahead and do something on your own. You can say it was inspired by The Moth, but feel free to take this and run with it,\u2019\u201d Aquizap said via phone last week.\nSo she did, suggesting her own version at the Hatbox Theatre\u2019s Pitch Night last spring. The result, Tales Told, has become a monthly event in Concord, held (for the most part) on the first Tuesday of the month. The next is Tuesday, Dec. 6, at 7:30 p.m. The theme is \u201cHome for the Holidays.\u201d\nAquizap, the show\u2019s producer, said Tales Told is a little different from The Moth. For one thing, it\u2019s more intimate.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very different from going to a Moth show in Boston, where it\u2019s really a performance. \u2026 I\u2019m not a performer. I have no desire to be a performer. The couple I went to in comedy clubs, I felt a little bit disappointed. I didn\u2019t feel as connected to the storytellers. It didn\u2019t feel as authentic,\u201d she said. \u201cTales Told feels different. Maybe it\u2019s because the Hatbox is such a great little intimate space. \u2026 The line between the audience and the storyteller is almost nonexistent.\u201d\nTraditionally, organizers of The Moth choose its 10 speakers through a hat draw, but the Hatbox is such a small venue, with just over 80 seats, that typically those who want to present can. Each story is a five-minute soliloquy (ideally memorized beforehand, no notes allowed) of a first-hand experience, adventure or lesson learned with a conflict and resolution following that night\u2019s theme; previous themes include \u201cFirsts\u201d and \u201cThanks and Giving.\u201d The next in January is \u201cLife or Death.\u201d\nThe national event features judging groups. Tales Told will eventually, but Aquizap said she felt it was best to forego that part while getting the program on its feet.\nThus far, people have talked about first concerts, first loves and family reunions. Some nights have featured uncanny threads linking all the stories. (One contained tales that all randomly related to Bruce Springsteen.) Show emcee Sue Gosselin said some nights moved audience members to tears.\n\u201cPeople connect the stories they hear with their own. It can be very cathartic for people,\u201d Gosselin said via phone. \u201cSometimes people come in and say, \u2018I would never be able to tell a story out loud.\u2019 But people feel safe and included and intimate with one another here, and the people who don\u2019t think they could tell a story at all end up telling the most intimate stories.\u201d\nAquizap has since gotten calls to bring True Tales to other New Hampshire towns, including those in the Monadnock and Seacoast regions.\n\u201cIt\u2019s such an art form, and we need to revive it, especially given the state of the world right now, and our country. We need to do anything we can to get people to come together, communicate and connect,\u201d Aquizap said. \u201cWith social media, we have hundreds of these \u2018friends\u2019 on Facebook and Twitter pages. \u2026 We don\u2019t sit in front of people and talk to them.\u201d\nVenue founder Andrew Pinard said the goal of Hatbox is to provide a home for all different types of theater, experimental, experiential and otherwise; he\u2019ll be offering a whole new variety for Season 2, which will be organized after the next Pitch Night in March.\n\u201cIt exposes different things to audiences at the Hatbox, things they might not otherwise come to the theater for. It creates a wonderful cross-pollination,\u201d Pinard said. \u201c[With Tales Told], we\u2019re tapping into an audience looking for deep, rich, personal experiences. What\u2019s more personal than getting up and telling a story about your life? It has the opportunity to be very creative and playful and also rich and meaningful for people.\u201d",

Hiroyuki Yoshimoto becomes the first person to hold the post after the company\u2019s founder Shigenobu Nagamori. He will remain at the helm of the company, together with the new president and COO Yoshimoto, as chairman and CEO. \u201cI have no intention of resigning yet \u2013 commented Nagamori \u2013 but the time has come to share the responsibility of managing a company group that now operates in 43 countries and continues to grow. At first, Yoshimoto will take over about 30% of my responsibilities. 10% of my time will go towards chairing the board of Kyoto Gakuen Educational Foundation that manages Kyoto Gakuen University, where I will develop the next generation of talented engineers, but I will dedicate the remaining 90% to Nidec. As a result the \u2018management power\u2019 of the company will actually increase to 120% (90% + 30%). Yoshimoto is young and ambitious and his management style and methods are similar to my own. Shortly after joining Nidec he managed to turn around Nidec Tosok, a struggling subsidiary, in a single year and significantly boost the growth of Nidec Corporation\u2019s automotive business in under two years\u201d. Yoshimoto outlined his ambition to further boost the growth of the company group by focusing on post-merger integration. \u201cI do not intend to change a winning formula \u2013 he said -. On the contrary, I will stay true to Nagamori\u2019s methods and thoroughly infuse the Nidec spirit into the newly acquired businesses through hands-on management.\u201d Nidec was founded in 1973: the company\u2019s success has among its main steps the commercialization of a direct-drive spindle motor for HDDs using brushless DC motor technology and the manufacturing of small precision motors. Besides, Nidec launched into a global effort to diversify and grow its business through a series of nearly 60 mergers and acquisitions. Currently, the Nidec group employs over 100,000 people in more than 40 countries and manufactures motors and related products for a wide range of applications including IT equipment, home appliances, electric vehicles and other automobiles, robots, drones, industrial facilities and more.\nPrevious articleGrease test bench\nNext articleToggle switch",

        "title": "How's Edinburgh Doing? Cycling in Scotland\u2019s Capital - Humankind",
        "raw_content": "September 27, 2018 Claire Robertson\t0 Opinions\tLvblcity Blog\tBicycles, Cycling, Edinburgh, Scotland\nEdinburgh is a vibrant, cosmopolitan European city. Scotland\u2019s capital is very walkable, and it has an extensive and efficient public transport network. The city is also home to numerous public green spaces such as Princes Street Gardens and the Meadows, and cultural institutions. What the city arguably lacks, however, is adequate cycling infrastructure.\nThe City of Edinburgh Council, and Sustrans, a charity that promotes walking and cycling in British cities, found that just 7.5% of citizens travel to work by bicycle, compared to 30% cycling mode share in Groningen. They also discovered that 61% of Edinburgh\u2019s residents never cycle. As one of the 61%, I was interested to see the widespread use of bicycles in countries I\u2019d visited such as the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden. In Edinburgh, it seems that only the most experienced cyclists would venture out onto the roads. Moreover, it is already easy and efficient to navigate the city via its extensive bus system. Better bike infrastructure, however, would give city dwellers another sustainable transport option, and would likely encourage less frequent cyclists to choose this option.\nSafety is a major concern for potential cyclists. Cyclists are rarely separated from cars, making helmet use and experience essential. There are advanced stop lines, also known as bike boxes, in central areas of the city. These allow cyclists to get a head start once the lights change. However, the city needs more segregated bike lanes to protect bike users.\nThe Council has already added segregated bike lanes to Buccleuch Street in the city\u2019s south side, and St Leonard\u2019s Street, and have found that 80% of Edinburgh\u2019s citizens would like more lanes to be added. The existing bike lane in Buccleuch Street clearly separate cyclists from traffic, but it only covers a very short distance. It would be beneficial to extend these bike lanes, and to make cycling in the city more akin to walking. This would give potential cyclists confidence, and help to protect them from the traffic.\nAt present, there can be a lack of legibility in city spaces. Navigating the city by bike or on foot should be intuitive, but some areas can be hard to read. For example, opposite the Edinburgh Bus Station, there\u2019s a pavement that\u2019s divided into pedestrian space, and a cycle lane. Although there are a couple of bike symbols on the pavement, they are sparsely-distributed, meaning that pedestrians often accidentally wander onto the cycle path. Similarly, at the bottom of the Mound in Edinburgh\u2019s bustling Princes Street, there are a couple of worn sketches of bikes on the pavement. It\u2019s not clear where the bikes are meant to go, and this lack of consistency confuses both cyclists and pedestrians.\nThe City of Edinburgh Council plans to improve bike infrastructure, however. Adam McVey, the leader of the city\u2019s Council, has stated that the city is committed to making cycling and walking safer. Lesley Macinnes has been enlisted as Transport Convenor. She is a strong supporter of cycling and wants to include stakeholders in planning decisions.\nAdditionally, in March, placemaking expert Daisy Narayan from Sustrans became the Central Edinburgh Transformation project\u2019s lead officer. Narayan writes that Edinburgh\u2019s urban fabric should encourage citizens to use sustainable ways to navigate the city, and that walking, cycling and public transport should all work together seamlessly.\nIt is positive that Edinburgh is beginning to take cycling infrastructure seriously. Giving residents choice and making sustainable modes of transport attractive will improve citizens\u2019 health through the prevention of pollution and integrating exercise into everyday life. This will make Scotland\u2019s capital a safer and even more pleasant place to live.\nClaire Robertson\t, contributor\nClaire Robertson is a graduate of the University of St Andrews, Scotland (2018). She has recently started a blog called Urban Being and is based in Edinburgh. Claire is interested in topics such as transit-oriented development and gentrification and hopes to pursue a Master\u2019s degree in Urban Studies in the near future.",

Roba and IFA have done profound work on behalf of both humans and animals in Ethiopia - from medical missions and establishing clinics that have brought physicians, medicine and equipment to treat infants and adults in different regions, to setting up food programs for the hungry and educating on the benefits of a plant-based diet, nutritionally and as a powerful tool to alleviate hunger and oppression\u2026 and uniquely, IFA has also rescued and advocated for animals as part of their mission. Dr. Roba's life changed in 1999, when he had the opportunity to care for a little dog named Nikita, who caused him to awaken to the sentience and suffering of all beings. Not long after, in 2003, Roba journeyed from where he was a practicing physician in Texas, back to his motherland, Ethiopia. There, he made powerful connections: He saw babies dying of diseases that were treatable and preventable, and he saw homeless children sleeping on concrete, not receiving the nutrition they needed; at the same time, there were animals suffering as well, being needlessly tortured and not receiving food or care. With a changed perspective, Roba returned to the United States and the International Fund for Africa was born. Since 2003, Roba has also contributed writings to books such as the compendium Circles of Compassion, and a chapter in the book Rethink Food: 100+ Doctors Can't be Wrong - as well as contributed writings to numerous magazine and websites, spoken at conferences and more. Propelled by his own compassionate journey and years of incredible work \u2013 whether as a physician, an advocate for a nutritional plant-based diet for Africa in order to end cycles of poverty and malnutrition, working with vegetarian/vegan societies in Ghana and Togo and being instrumental in establishing the first Ethiopian Vegan Association, or be it working with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine or caring for his own rescued canine family, Dr. Roba\u2019s story, efforts and voice will move and inspire everyone to embrace a more global, just and compassionate vision.\nhttp://www.ifundafrica.org/",

        "title": "WXYC Simulcast - CARP response",
        "raw_content": "+ Simulcast\nWXYC Simulcast - SOS\nFIRST RADIO STATION ON THE INTERNET APPEALS FOR RELIEF FROM LEGISLATION THAT WOULD JEOPARDIZE ITS INTERNET SIMULCAST\nWe write as representatives of the management and staff of WXYC-FM, a student-operated and student-funded radio station on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. We are licensed by the Federal Communications Commission as a non-commercial, educational station. This month, March 2002, we are marking our 25th anniversary of continuous licensed operation.\nIn the summer of 1994, WXYC began simulcasting its broadcast signal on the World Wide Web. We believe this to have been the first-ever \"Webcasting\" by an officially-licensed radio station in the world. The technological means by which we webcast are provided by Ibiblio, a university-affiliated non-profit entity dedicated to providing free access to a wide selection of online sources. Our Web simulcasts are listened to by a small number of persons around the world, including UNC-CH alumni and other former Chapel Hill residents, as well as by current local residents who are outside the limited reach of our 400 watt broadcast signal. Compared to our regular broadcast listeners, we believe our Internet listeners to make up a very small portion of our listening audience, but we do consider them an important part.\nOur ability to continue to offer our broadcast signal to Internet listeners is greatly threatened by recent laws and regulations that are close to taking effect. In particular, we are concerned about the recent rules proposed by the Copyright Arbitration and Royalty Panel regarding royalty payments for Internet broadcasts and the reporting requirements they would entail. We do not receive any revenue from either our on-air broadcast nor our Webcast. Given this, we do not feel that the premises on which CARP based its rules are applicable to us and other stations like us. Our opposition to this legislation centers on three problems: the royalty fees, the extent and nature of the reporting requirements, and the content restrictions imposed on Webcast programming.\nAlthough we acknowledge copyright holders' interest in sound recording royalties, there is no historical precedent for radio stations being required to pay such royalties. Because we merely simulcast our on-air programming on the Web, we do not feel that our Webcast should be treated differently from our on-air signal. We understand that copyright holders are concerned that Webcasts make their material digitally available in a way that affects the market for their work, but the structure of our programming and Webcast is such that this material is not likely to be appropriated from our audio stream. All our songs are segued into one another, and our programming is greater than the sum of its parts. Persons wanting to download specific songs for their future personal use would find it difficult to use our station to do that, because songs do not stand alone within our programming and we do not announce specific songs ahead of time. Nor do we offer an online archive of past programming -- the only online audio available is a live simulcast of our regular broadcast programming. Moreover, we often receive calls and e-mails from listeners wishing to obtain information on songs we played so the listener can find the recording in stores.\nAnd because we do not generate revenue from the broadcast of copyrighted materials, we are not in a position to share revenue with the copyright holder in the same way commercial radio stations are. Our annual budget, which comes directly from the pockets of the university's students and has remained fairly constant for two decades, has never exceeded $20,000. Although CARP's proposed royalty rates do differ for commercial and non-commercial stations, we do not feel that fees for non-commercial stations should be calculated on a per-song, per-listener basis at all. Rather, fees should be based on the model of publishing royalties that radio stations traditionally pay.\nIn addition, the reporting requirements that the Digital Millennium Copyright Act imposes on Internet stations are impossibly burdensome for us. The data collection requirements assume a standardization across and within stations that isn't reflected the reality of our operations. Our station library includes of tens of thousands of vinyl records (LPs), most of which contain no UPC code and many of which have never been issued on compact disc and are out of print. Our format is predicated on artistic, free-form decision-making by the on-air DJ, and DJs are not limited in the number of such (rare) recordings they may play during their shows. Stations such as ours, in playing out of print recordings, have helped to spur a market for reissued material since the compact disc was invented, thus benefiting the holders of sound recording copyrights.\nThe data collection requirements seem to assume predetermined playlists that draw from a relatively small catalog of songs. The sequence of the songs we play, however, is decided on the spur of the moment based on the overall flow of the program. Our DJs approach their craft in a non-mechanical way, and this DJ freedom is the essential part of our format. Because they are constantly making decisions about what to play next, it would be impossible for our DJs to gather the required information about each song during their shifts.\nThe requirements also seem to assume that most Internet broadcasts should use software and hardware that makes data collection feasible. Such technology is prohibitively expensive for our station, given our limited budget. Not only this, but many of the recordings we play are not in formats that are compatible with such software. Our station is run by student volunteers and we do not have the manpower to convert our immense library to a digitized format. In addition, the legislation requires us to provide information about our online listeners that we feel is a violation of their privacy and, moreover, is currently impossible for us to obtain.\nFinally, the DMCA's restrictions on the number of songs by the same artist allowed to be Webcast within a specified time would affect some of our most popular programming. For example, the Thursday Night Feature, a weekly three-hour thematic show, frequently spotlights the work of a single artist.\nWXYC has communicated to the Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel and the Librarian of Congress that the DMCA, as it stands, imposes untenable standards and restrictions on non-commercial educational radio stations that simulcast their signals over the Internet. We have asked them to consider our situation and take appropriate action within the parameters of their responsibilities. We are also asking Congressional representatives to support changes to the Music Online Competition Act (HR 2724) or other legislative means of mitigating the effects of the DMCA and CARP's proposed rules.",

        "raw_content": "Super 8 Dreams by Bill Mousoulis\na programme of Super 8 films from the 1980s\nThursday, November 5, 2015, at 7:30 pm, $6 entry\nGoodtime Studios, Basement, 746 Swanston St. Carlton\norganised by Artist Film Workshop\nAcclaimed Greek-Australian filmmaker Bill Mousoulis (9 features to his name) started making films in 1982, by utilising the Super 8 medium. By the end of the '80s, he had made over 40 short Super 8 films, and we present 8 of the best ones in this special programme.\nFrom narrative works showing Mousoulis' development from Spielbergian sentimentalism to Bressonian formalism, to non-narrative works showing Mousoulis' growing interest in the auto-portrait and essay modes, this is a rare glimpse into a particular time and artistic space.\nThe original Super 8 films themselves will be projected, on loan from the National Film and Sound Archive.\n(1983, 9 mins)\nA look at the life of a 16-year-old girl, focusing on the person she loves and what happens to him, and how it affects her. In a world that is less than perfect, not all desired things are destined to be. But dreams never end ...\n\"The Bresson of Super-8, Bill Mousoulis, makes films which are a sublime and quizzical mix of down-home observational physicality and transcendental spirituality, luminous with both the sadness and potentiality of individual dreaming. You won't believe it until you see it. Dreams Never End is a classic.\" - Adrian Martin, film critic, 1986.\nNo.16 in \"28 All-Time Greats of Super-8\" by Mark Titmarsh, Limit of Maps, Spring 1985.\nVarious shots taken inside and outside the house Mousoulis was living in when aged 19 in 1982 (his parents' house).\nThis is the first of Mousoulis' films to consciously attempt an impressionistic, experimental style.\nIt is also the first time Mousoulis started playing with the idea of the \"subversive music clip\", taking a known song and putting his own images to it.\n(1984, 10 mins)\nA jewellery-box literally jumps in front of a teenage boy's path. Perplexed, he gives it to his brother who is mysteriously attracted to the box. After awhile, it dawns on him that he has an obligation to the box, and he follows it through, accompanied by John Williams' orchestral music.\nA tribute to Spielberg and E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial.\n\"Dreams Never End and J.C.: The Jewellery-Case are both extremely personal, and, to borrow a term from Paul Schrader, exhibit what might be called a \"transcendental film style\". These films' undeniable honesty renders all cynicism impotent.\" - Andrew Preston, Filmnews, 1985.\nMousoulis once again films moments in his home in an eclectic, strange way, creating both an ordinary and extraordinary representation of reality.\n- Anne-Marie Crawford, Super Eight magazine, Dec 1986.\nA guy and a girl, a secret and a world ...\n\"Physical World is dry, austere, methodical. However, it is a film which draws the viewer's attention away from the surface towards a deeper meaning. We cannot accept that Life, as represented in the first three quarters of the film, is solely composed of the dull, everyday physical activities that we are watching - there must be something more. Through implication the answer is conveyed - yes there is more. There is love. Love alone is the fuel that drives our tired bodies on.\" - Mark La Rosa, Super-8 Yearbook, Feb 1987.\nBill Mousoulis: Abba, Michael Hutak, Bruce Springsteen, Julianne Phillips, David Parkin, Alan Johnson, John Coleman, Roland Barthes, Belinda Carlisle.\n\"I admire Mousoulis' narrative fiction but it is his essay films which are the most interesting for me. Knowing Me, Knowing You is so contained within its rhetoric, those of us in the audience can only wonder what he's getting at. It seems to be a direct reply to a Michael Hutak article \"Moral Fiction\" that appeared in On The Beach ... I hope Mousoulis continues with this series of films, possibly the most philosophically contained and interesting of its kind in Super-8.\"\nFeaturing: George Goularas, Bill Mousoulis\nVarious tableaux of Melbourne in 1989, as experienced by the film-maker.\n\"I can't live with myself .... Your bone's got a little machine .... Every day is like Sunday ..... No more sorry.\" No more sorry.\n- Nick Ostrovskis, Super Eight magazine, Oct 1989.\nFeaturing: Elwin Bradshaw, Loren Daniel, Peter Camerone.\nThe faith of a heart and the faith of a look. A period in the life of a young Australian couple.\n\"With gentle direction, Bill does not impose a story upon the viewer. Faith lets its story grow from its spaces, revealing how the cinema and its meanings can be very hard to pinpoint. Bill lets meaning grow out of silence; significance grow out of the fact that he has faith, as much as the viewer slowly begins to realise, that the characters do not have to be spoken for. Their richness slowly rises to the surface.\" - Darron Davies, Filmviews, Sep 1987.\n- Voted Best Super 8 Film of 1987 in Super-8 Yearbook 1988 (making 12 Top Ten lists).",

        "raw_content": "In one way or another, most teen stories are about what cultural theorists call the liminal experience: that intense, suspended moment between yesterday and tomorrow, between childhood and adulthood, between being a nobody and a somebody, when everything is in question, and anything is possible.\n- Adrian Martin, \"Teen Movies: The Forgetting of Wisdom\", Phantasms (McPhee Gribble, 1994)\nEspecially for Hollywood, it is only within teen movies that a certain innocence for and about life is expressed. In no other genre (including kids\u2019 films) do we find characters with both an incredible sense of wonder, and a healthy capacity for breaking their lives open. Existential urgency and life transformation are the themes that the best teen films deal with. And in this, they should be seen as models (\"spiritual\" models, let\u2019s say), rather than being dismissed as \"only\" films about such things as \"coming of age\", \"rites of passage\", etc.\nOf course, a lot of Hollywood teen films can get bogged down in the mechanics of their genre, and get quite lifeless. Some of the thematic elements are by now over-codified: the high school setting, the tribal splittings, peer group pressure, parental pressure, sexual awareness, etc. Even fine films such as 10 Things I Hate About You (Gil Junger, 1999) or Drive Me Crazy (John Schultz, 1999) teeter on banality. That there is still life in these films is testament to the vitality of the genre. (And then there are the left-wing variations such as Rushmore [Wes Anderson, 1998].)\nMany French teen films get totally away from the \"teen comedy\" genre favoured by American teen films \u2013 they are, in fact, well-observed and quite sober character studies. (Some examples: Les Roseaux Sauvages [Andr\u00e9 T\u00e9chin\u00e9, 1994], Travolta et moi [Patricia Mazuy, 1993], Passe ton bac d'abord [Maurice Pialat, 1979].) Where the American films can be a little too silly, these ones can be a little too dry. They are dramas rather than comedies, but the filmmakers seem to grant their characters more intelligence and maturity than is plausible, creating somewhat false worlds. (American films can have this flaw too \u2013 see George Washington [David Gordon Green, 2000].)\nFemale teenage angst seems to be fertile content for the teen film, as can be seen in Portrait d'une Jeune Fille de la Fin des Ann\u00e9es 60 \u00e0 Bruxelles (Chantal Akerman, 1994) and All Over Me (Alex Sichel, 1997). Here we have characters with natural intelligence, a capacity for feeling, and an understanding that they can do the unconventional (in this case, gay sex).\nShow Me Love (Lukas Moodysson, 1998) continues this tradition, but, curiously, it\u2019s directed by a man. This seems to liberate it from what we may term the \"autobiographical trace\" (which totally mars a film like Lea Pool\u2019s 1999 Emporte-moi) giving the characters greater strength as characters. That the film has been a smash hit in its homeland Sweden only proves that its characterisations are rock solid. (The audience obviously responding directly to the characters, rather than being \"entertained\" by a genre film.)\nThe characters are still borderline-stereotypical, however: Agnes (Rebecca Liljeberg) is an \"ugly duckling\", Elin (Alexandra Dahlstr\u00f6m) a \"hot chick\", Markus (Stefan H\u00f6rberg) and Johan (Mathius Rust) \"insensitive males\". But Moodysson at least plays with these stereotypes \u2013 Johan has marvellous grey areas added to him, and Elin\u2019s transformation from vain beauty to rebellious bi is very interesting. And if Agnes\u2019 attraction to Elin is purely a physical thing, then at least that\u2019s an honest characterisation on Moodysson\u2019s part.\nIn fact, there is nothing really \"sophisticated\" about this film, at any level. The visual style is very basic, and employs a mild Dogme-like technique (a \"realistic\" technique that neither harms nor helps the film).\nShow Me Love has such a simple, pure nature to it that any consciously lesbian and/or feminist polemics are non-existent. The film is so \"unadulterated\" that it almost comes across like a children\u2019s film. This is obviously why a lot of audiences and critics have labelled it \"charming\" and \"refreshing\".\nAnd, yes, the climax scene is quite wonderful, although its second line of dialogue is overdone and unnecessary. The Swedish power pop soundtrack is also gorgeous. Overall, a wholesome, pleasurable film.\nThis review first appeared in Senses of Cinema, No.11, Dec 2000 - Jan 2001",

In addition, it has received new donations recently, including $750 from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and $340 million from Japan.\nPoor funding in 2011 forced the Fund to make an unprecedented decision to cancel its 11th round of funding, raising fears that gains made in the fight HIV would be lost. Some $616 million in grant requests is now being considered by the Technical Review Panel.\nUNAIDS said the money would allow countries and communities to take the lead in determining their priorities to meet the targets of the 2011 UN Political Declaration on AIDS.\n\"This ushers in a new era for the Global Fund and I am pleased to see that it is opening the door to new partnerships,\" Michel Sidib\u00e9, executive director of UNAIDS, said in a statement. \"The Global Fund must keep firmly focused on country successes, and continue to leverage resources to ensure that countries can reach their goals and that more lives are saved.\"\nThe international NGO, M\u00e9decins Sans Fronti\u00e8res (MSF), welcomed the new money but cautioned that the Fund must stick to country-driven, needs-driven and demand-driven programming. Sharonann Lynch, HIV policy advisor to MSF International, urged the Global Fund, which will have its 26th board meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, on 10 and 11 May, to adhere to its founding principle of saving lives.\n\"The Global Fund will deliberate on whether it can afford to open a new funding window this year [2012]. MSF demands that it does so as quickly as possible - we can't afford to waste more time and squander the opportunity to save lives and prevent new infections,\" Lynch told IRIN/PlusNews.\nWe can't afford to waste more time and squander the opportunity to save lives and prevent new infections\n\"The funding window must be made available to all poor countries affected - the fear is that rushed reform within the Global Fund could lead to new strategies where it cherry-picks countries and interventions under the guise of poor funding.\"\nThe Global Fund is one of the largest contributors to the fight against HIV, TB and malaria, and by 2010 was disbursing $3.5 billion annually. It has supported about 40 percent of all HIV treatment in developing countries and much of the care in middle-income nations such as China and India. More than two-thirds of the world\u2019s malaria prevention and treatment, and three-quarters of all tuberculosis efforts, now depend on it.\n\"Countries that implement our grants are saving more and more people, but demand for services is still enormous,\" said Gabriel Jaramillo, who became General Manager of the Global Fund in February 2012. \"With more money, we can save more lives.\"\nkr/he\nGlobal Fund shake-up signals new direction",

        "raw_content": "Home / Transit / Tr@nsit Online / The Balkans\u2019 New Normal\nThe Balkans\u2019 New Normal\nThe Balkans is the European Union\u2019s untold success story. The EU\u2019s commitment to bringing the region within its borders remains firm. In September, Catherine Ashton, the EU\u2019s High Representative for Foreign Affairs, succeeded in breaking the deadlock in Serbia-Kosovo relations by bringing both sides back to the negotiating table. The EU\u2019s soft power remains as visible as ever.\nMoreover, just this month, the visa wall surrounding the region for the last two decades finally fell for everyone (with the exception of the Kosovo Albanians). It is as if the crisis in the EU\u2019s center had not reached its Balkan periphery. This, at least, is how the European Commission wants to see the Balkans, and how the region wants to present itself.\nBut the reality is less re-assuring. A closer look reveals that the Balkans currently is a mixture of Greek-style economic problems, Berlusconi-style politics, and Turkish-style enthusiasm when it comes to the EU\u2019s will to integrate the countries of the region.\nTo understand this mixture, imagine a rainy election day in an unnamed country, and that almost three-quarters of the ballots are returned blank. The government demands that the elections be re-held, when the sun is shining. The result is terrifying: the protest increases, with 83% of the electorate voting without choosing a candidate.\nThat is the plot of Jos\u00e9 Saramago\u2019s novel Seeing \u2013 an anti-utopian vision of post-political democracies where people are angry, the elite are conspiracy-minded and insecure, and social life is paralyzed. It is also a fair depiction of how citizens in the Balkans feel about their new political systems.\nSaramago\u2019s anywhere is the Balkans\u2019 everywhere. When asked by the latest Gallup Balkan Monitor poll to say whom they trust, most respondents expressed faith in the Church, the EU, and the United Nations, but were deeply suspicious of national institutions, including those that are elected.\nTen years after the last war in the region, the Balkans still comprises an assemblage of frustrated protectorates and weak states. Bosnia and Kosovo are trapped in the labyrinth of the politics of semi-independence; Albania, Montenegro, and Macedonia are small and claustrophobic republics with populist and divisive governments and opposition forces that are discouraged and discouraging at the same time.\nSerbia has lost Kosovo, but it still has not found itself, while Croats are split over joining the EU, with a majority planning to vote against it. Serbs and Croats still disagree about history, but many agree that paying taxes is a waste of money, and most agree that no party or politician expresses their views.\nThe EU has lost its magic, but it has not yet lost its importance. True, faced with the choice of keeping the constitutional name of their country or compromising with Greece for the benefit of joining the Union, Macedonians are sticking to their guns. Serbs also say that it is more important to pretend that Kosovo is part of Serbia than it is to join the EU.\nBut declarations are one thing and reality is another. It is clear that if the region\u2019s citizens are to have any realistic hope of a better life and political stability, it will be related to their country\u2019s EU prospects. And here is what makes the Balkans so important for understanding the new condition in Europe. People from the region still believe in the EU, but they are not sure that the EU believes in itself.\nMoreover, they no longer know how their economies will be able to grow in post-crisis Europe. Previously, there were two models for small economies seeking to incorporate themselves within the EU: the Irish model of radical market reforms, and the Greek model of creative bookkeeping and absorption of European funds. Now both models have derailed.\nThe impact of the EU\u2019s current crisis in the Balkans can be best understood as a crisis of political imagination. Just two or three years ago, people in the region worried about living on the outskirts of Europe; now they worry about Europe itself. Once it was popular to tell Macedonians that they could become another Belgium. Now, one has to ask if Macedonians should want that outcome, given the wasteful and complicated way in which Belgium functions today. Indeed, no one promises that Belgium will not collapse in the next 10 or 20 years.\nHow will the Balkans\u2019 multicultural institutions, built after a decade of war and fervent nationalism, be sustained at a time when leading European politicians are heard to say that multiculturalism is dead? How can institutional arrangements established to stop the war be transformed into an effective guarantee for a common future that includes EU membership?\nFocused on their own problems, Europeans do not have time to think about how the crisis in the EU impacts the countries on Europe\u2019s periphery. This should change. The Balkans\u2019 \u201cnew normality\u201d is very much a reflection of Europe\u2019s.\nIvan Krastev is Director of the Centre for Liberal Strategies\nin Sofia and Permanent Fellow at the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM) in\nVienna. He is Executive Director of the International Commission on the Balkans\nand Member of the European Council von Foreign Relations. Krastev contributes\nfrequently to leading European and American newspapers and is Editor-in-Chief\nof the Bulgarian edition of Foreign Policy.\nThis piece originally appeared in Project\nSyndicate.

Student Protest and the Macedonian Crisis\nStudent protest has been a regular occurrence in the Balkans in recent years. While the actions of students against austerity policies and budget cuts at Greek universities or the Gezi protests in Istanbul gained wider international notoriety, it was the western Balkan countries that provided for a model of student protest action that has been emulated throughout the region.",

The concern is capitalized at $100,000 and will control and operate both of Mr. Haish's manufacturing enterprises in DeKalb, the wire fence factory and the implement works, now being rebuilt.\nOf the capital stock Mr. Haish retains $50,000 and Mrs. Haish $10,000. The balance $40,000, he gives outright to those in his employ fifteen years or more, the distribution being made on the basis of the relative importance of the positions held by them.\nExclusive of Mr. and Mrs. Haish, the stockholders number fifteen, all of whom, with one exception, have served the requisite number of years. Their names are given as follows: C.H. Salisbury, B.S. White, Fred Westerberg, Fred W. Smith, J.F. Berquist, Peter Lindberg, Erik Anderson, Ole Nelson, Andrew Anderson, August Johnson, John P. Anderson, E.F. Collins, Andrew Nelson, Carl Swanson and J. Nelson.\nAt a meeting held at the office the last of the week the following officers and directors were chosen: President Jacob Haish; vice-president and secretary, C.H. Salisbury; treasurer B.S. White; S.A. Haish and Fred W. Smith. In making this disposition of his industrial enterprises Mr. Haish provides for the perpetuation of the great business which he gave the best years of his life to building up and he rewards the old and faithful employees who aided him in the work.\nLabels: barbed wire, DeKalb, DeKalb Illinois, Haish factory, haish wire, Jacob Haish, Jacob Haish factory, Salisbury",

        "raw_content": "Tales of 14-Songs-in-14-Days: What? Again?\nThursday 30th August, 2012, 9:28pm\nThe title of this post was my response when I realized that what we were talking about was doing another 14-day challenge. I thought we\u2019d proven our point already, and that was more than enough stress for one year. But, no. Apparently, it wasn\u2019t.\n(Pat Pattison actually suggested in one of the workshops that we should do the two weeks, take two weeks to rest after, and then rinse and repeat. This was met with a change of subject by our class.)\nEven though I thought I\u2019d already learned everything that was to be learned from this ICU for songwriting, I have to admit that I thought saying no would be a mistake. What if there was a really good song (I mean, a REALLY good song) lurking somewhere in those next two weeks, just waiting for me to get there. I could see it now, dressed to the nines, checking its watch, tapping its tiny glass-enclosed tootsies. Well, maybe not quite. But the truth is, I was afraid to say no and miss it, regardless of what it was wearing. So I said yes.\nYou may or may not remember, but in one of my earlier posts (Health Issues), I mentioned that I\u2019d been taken to the emergency room for the second time within a short number of years. Like two. The issues weren\u2019t the same, and though the first one turned out not to be very traumatic, the second trip was pretty upsetting and had long-lasting consequences. I suddenly found myself with a giant blood clot in one leg, and for the first time, had to spend several days in the hospital, had surgery, and dealt with my life being totally out of my control. That had happened just before the first 14-day challenge. And by the time this second challenge rolled around, I thought it would be over, but it turned out that it wasn\u2019t. I just wanted to get off the medication and go back to my \u201creal\u201d life, but there were still some mountains to climb.\nAs a result, there were some fairly whine-y songs in this batch. I\u2019ll do you a favor and fail to burden you with those. The one acceptable one was a gospel-ish song about trying to be grateful to be alive to receive, even if what I received wasn\u2019t what I asked for. It was based on the grace that was said at my sister-in-law\u2019s table in Dimmitt, TX when we went for a visit in the middle of the challenge.\nWhich brings me to the point of this ramble: In this batch too, the best songs were written while I was traveling. There were a couple that I really liked at the beginning of the 14 days. One, \u201cThe Hands of my Clock\u201d, was about my broken Kit-Kat clock, and another was about the people who were trying to tell me to \u201cslow down\u201d. I have very strong opinions about that whole concept, and I stuck them all in a song called \u201cNo Need to Hurry\u201d as in, I\u2019ll be dead for a long time someday. Why start now?\nAs I mentioned in an earlier post, I no longer believe in \u201cwriter\u2019s block\u201d, but it does seem like being out of my familiar environment fires up my creative machinery. Sometimes you just have to slap the contraption up side o\u2019the head to make it work.\nBut the one I\u2019ve chosen for you to hear on this post is a little ditty I wrote sitting in a chair facing the wall in the home of a different sister-in-law in Abilene, TX. We had stayed in her home overnight, and I\u2019d had a nightmare. I got up to dissipate it, or think about it, whichever one actually happened, and my husband came out awhile later. There I was scribbling down the lyrics to that day\u2019s song, about my nightmare. It\u2019s called \u201cGoblins in my Head\u201d, and it was recorded on my little home set up, as soon as I got back. (This is by way of being an apology if the quality of the recording isn\u2019t all it could be.) I used it as a Hallowe\u2019en song that year.\nGoblins in my Head\nTags: 14-songs-in-14-days \u2022 Austin \u2022 Austin Songwriters \u2022 Austin TX \u2022 goblin \u2022 hallowe'en \u2022 Jan Seides \u2022 Kit-Kat clock \u2022 Pat Pattison \u2022 singer-songwriter \u2022 songwriting \u2022 TX",

        "title": "Council\u2019s Standpoint after the investigation procedure concerning paid match transmissions - The National Broadcasting Council",
        "raw_content": "Tags: standpoint pay-per-view\nStandpoint of the National Broadcasting Council of 26th February 2013 after the investigation procedure conducted in connection with the last year\u2019s transmission of the national football team matches delivered for a fee by some entrepreneurs operating on the electronic media market.\nI. Actual state of facts\nThe football matches of the Polish national team with the Montenegro and Moldavia teams, played as part of the eliminations to the 2014 World Cup in football, took place on the 7th and 11th September 2012. The firms which had signed contracts with Sportfive Sp. z o.o., holder of the television rights, transmitted the matches on a pay-only basis.\nII. Legal status\nThe legal regulations concerning live television transmissions of matches organised with the participation of the Polish national football team are provided in the Broadcasting Act of 29 December 1992. These regulations are aimed at ensuring that the audience has general and free access to transmissions of events of substantial social importance, known as major events. Due to the broad interest of the public, major events include, but are not limited to, semi-finals and finals of world and European championships in football as well as all other matches played as part of those events with the participation of the Polish national team, including elimination games and other matches with the participation of the Polish national football team played as part of official tournaments (Art. 20b section 2 points 2 and 3 of the Act).\nThe matches played by the Polish team with Montenegro and Moldavia were major events within the meaning of the Act. A television broadcaster may transmit a live coverage of a major event only via a national programme within the meaning of the Act or the broadcasting licence, which is available in its entirety without a fee, save for subscription fees within the meaning of the Act on subscription fees dated 21 April 2005 and basic charges collected by cable television operators (Art. 20b section 1 of the Act). This obligation may be waived only if none of the broadcasters meeting the statutory requirements expressed their willingness to sign a contract for the transmission (Art. 20b section 6 of the Act). It is, therefore, the assessment of the terms of the negotiated contract that is of essential importance in establishing whether the offer was or was not an apparent action.\nIII. Pay-per-view \u2013 paid media service\nDespite the postulates submitted during the legislation work conducted in relation to the transposition of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive, the paid media service \u2013 pay-per-view has not so far been defined in the Broadcasting Act of 29 December 1992 With the development of new media service delivery methods, more and more doubts arise as to their legal qualification. For this reason the National Broadcasting Council has presented a separate interpretation on classifying pay-per-view services in the light of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive.\nIV. Council\u2019s investigation procedure\nDuring the investigation procedure, the following companies presented their standpoints: Telewizja Polska, Cyfrowy Polsat, Telewizja Polsat, TOYA, two operators of the TELE-TOP network belonging to the Multimedia Polska Sp. z o.o. group and TV ASTA Sp. z o.o. (the two latter operators informed that they had not provided the transmission on a paid basis).\nThe Council Chairman requested the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) that she investigate whether some of the broadcasters acted in line with the Act on competition and consumer protection of 16 February 2007. The communication of 14 November 2012 emphasised that the UOKiK President instituted an antimonopoly procedure which should resolve the issue whether any competition-restricting arrangement had been in place. Apart from the holder of the transmission rights \u2013 Sportfive, the law might have been breached by eleven firms: UPC Polska (Warsaw), Cyfrowy Polsat (Warsaw), Vectra (Gdynia), Multimedia (Gdynia), Toya (\u0141\u00f3d\u017a), Inea (Pozna\u0144), Echostar Studio ZTS Tele 4 (Pozna\u0144), SGT (Gliwice), ZUA Antserwis (Pi\u0142a), TK Antserwis (Wa\u0142cz) and Asta-net (Pi\u0142a).\nThe Management Board President of Telewizja Polska SA informed that during negotiations with Sportfive, the TVP Sport\u2019s Management had been emphasizing that TVP was very keen to acquire the rights in question. It had also clearly pointed out, however, that the licence value had been significantly overestimated and unrealistic from the market point of view.\nThe National Broadcasting Council could not, however, evaluate the terms of the negotiated contract and ascertain whether the rights\u2019 purchasing offer was or was not an apparent one, due to the parties\u2019 confidentiality obligation under the Licence Agreement.\nThe Management Board President of Cyfrowy Polsat SA informed that a significant element of the negotiations had been the fact that Sportfive \u2026made a clear statement saying that (1) it had submitted an offer for the purchase of transmission rights to the abovementioned matches to all Polish television programme broadcasters transmitting free national programmes within the meaning of Art. 20b section 1 point 1 of the Broadcasting Act, (2) none of those broadcasters expressed their willingness to sign a licence agreement for the transmission of the abovementioned matches on the arm\u2019s length basis and acceptable to Sportfive, (3) at the agreement conclusion date there is no possibility of purchasing rights to the matches from any of the broadcasters referred to above, pursuant to Art. 20b section 1 point 2 of the Broadcasting Act, and Sportfive remains the sole holder of the rights to those matches. The above statements were included in \u00a7 5 of the licence agreement dated 5 September 2012 concluded between the Company and Sportfive Sp. z o.o.\nTOYA informed that it had signed the agreement as it had received an offer for the match transmission along with the Sportfive\u2019s statement saying that none of the national broadcasters had been prepared to sign an agreement except for Telewizja Polska SA, which expressed its interest but on terms which would not afford cost return to Sportfive.\nV. Nature of transmitted message\nAccording to the Broadcasting Act, a programme service shall mean a structured composition of programmes, commercial communication or other messages, transmitted in its entirety in a manner that allows simultaneous reception by the general public in a sequence determined by the broadcaster(Art. 4 point 6 of the Act)\nCyfrowy Polsat transmitted the programme in its entirety for simultaneous viewing by the general public according to a sequence of programmes determined by it (i.e. the match broadcasting studio, first half of the match, the match broadcasting studio, second half of the match, the match broadcasting studio) as well as other transmitted messages including advertisements \u2013 identically as is the case in the daily transmission practice of an editorially structured show sequence \u2013 in line with an agreed scenario and event schedule, and paying for the programme has no relevance for the above qualification. The programme contained the host\u2019s comments made in the company\u2019s name, which could be qualified as the broadcaster\u2019s announcement (Art. 16 section 4 of the Act).\nPursuant to the Broadcasting Act, a broadcaster is a natural person, a legal person or a commercial partnership which creates and compiles a programme and transmits it or provides it to others for transmission (Art. 4 point 5 of the Act). Cyfrowy Polsat met those criteria as it took the exclusive editorial responsibility for the compiled and transmitted programme (Art. 4 point 3 of the Act). Therefore, Cyfrowy Polsat acted as a media service provider (Art. 4 point 4 of the Act).\nVI. Legal steps\nTreating a compilation of programmes and other messages transmitted by Cyfrowy Polsat as a programme leads to the conclusion that the transmission took place without licence with violation of the law (Art. 52 section 1 of the Act). In this situation, the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure requires that a State agency notifies the Prosecutor\u2019s Office of a potential offence. Stating that the programmes and other transmitted messages broadcast by Cyfrowy Polsat constituted a programme that was transmitted without the licence has its consequence for the National Broadcasting Council who now needs to meet its obligation under the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure.\nVII.Legislative postulates\nThe National Broadcasting Council wishes to bring forward urgently the need to introduce a statutory definition of the paid media service \u2013 pay-per-view. A legal definition of the term \u2018national programme\u2019 is necessary to be established, too. The Council deems reasonable the postulate of introducing a statutory power to determine, by way of regulation, the mode of procedure in the event of waiving the requirement to transmit major events via a national programme available at no charge. The request to modify Art. 20b sections 1 and 6 seems justified \u2013 by means of a regulation stating that the rules provided therein and the penalty option under Art. 53 of the Act should apply to all entities operating on the media service market and not just to broadcasters within the meaning of the definition in Art. 4 point 5 of the Act. Art. 36 section 3 of the Act stating that broadcasting licence shall be granted for 10 years needs to be reconsidered.\nThe Council\u2019s interpretative standpoint of 26 February 2013 on classifying pay-per-view services in the light of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive can be treated as complementary to the above comments.\nThe National Broadcasting Council is expressing its willingness to participate in the legislative work.",

        "raw_content": "End of analogue television\nTags: digital tv digitisation\nOn Tuesday the 23rd of July at 1:00 am, the analogue transmitters ceased to work in the following voivodships: Lower Silesia, Lublin, Lubuskie, Mazovian, Podlaskie, Podkarpackie and Warmi\u0144sko-Mazurskie. Digital transmitters were activated at 6:00 am. The seven-step transformation process from the analogue to digital terrestrial television in Poland that started in November last year has been accomplished.\nFollowing the obligation under Art. 43 Section 1 of the Broadcasting Act concerning retransmission of TVP1, TVP 2, the regional television programme services transmitted by TVP S.A. and POLSAT, TVN, TV4 and TV PULS, the National Broadcasting Council is reminding cable operators about the necessary changes in picking up the television signal fed to the head ends.\nThe digitization process is managed in Poland by the Ministry of Administration and Digitization and the Office of Electronic Communication, which reports to it. The National Broadcasting Council is in charge of issuing broadcasting licences and supervising television broadcasters.\n- The National Broadcasting Council, in its present composition of members appointed in August 2010, has undertaken a number of tasks which have contributed to the actual launch of the digitization process. We participated, jointly with the Office of Electronic Communications amongst others, in finalizing fundamental decisions in the then existing Ministry of Infrastructure. They brought the end to the year-long discussions over the content of digital multiplexes during the transition period - until deactivation of the analogue television \u2013 and over the procedure of selecting programmes to be offered on those multiplexes \u2013 emphasizes Jan Dworak, the Council\u2019s Chairman. \u2013 We have held the first contest for four new programmes, and currently we just about to accomplish the second one. We have also proactively joined in the information campaign. Today, we can already say that the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting has been completed without any major disruptions despite concerns raised by various communities \u2013 added the Chairman.\nThe advantages of Digital Transmission include:\n- a much wider programme offer than that of the analogue TV;\n- a better picture and sound quality especially thanks to the introduction of high-definition television (HDTV) and the surround sound;\n- maintaining permanent good quality of picture and sound within the broadcasting station\u2019s limits (for instance through elimination of ghost image and other picture disruption);\n- picture broadcast in different formats (the current one 4:3 or the panoramic one 16:9);\n- a number of soundtracks and additional data (such as subtitles, for instance) can be broadcast concurrently;\n- access to additional services including interactive ones whenever the TV set or the STB is connected to the Internet;\n- mobile and movable reception possible.",

        "raw_content": "When your business is in need of a new parking lot, you will need to make sure that you keep a few things in mind before you make a final decision as to what company will be best to repave your parking lot. Many people would not believe the large amount of things that have to be taken into account when they are looking to make a selection for a paving company. The truth is this, if you cut corners, then you can easily find yourself paying for a job that you will need to have redone a few years later and find yourself paying twice as much as you would the first time if you chose the right company the first time.\nMake Sure the Company that you select is Insured\nHaving insurance will be important as you will need to make sure that if something happens while they are working on your paving job, that you will not be responsible for the repairs or that you will have to file it against your insurance. When you go to choose a company, be sure that you ask to see the copy of their insurance and that they are also bonded. These two things will go a long way in helping you to not be in a bad situation where you are stuck having to pay for the repairs.\nIt may not come to mind to think about the types of materials that are used, but this can actually go along way in helping to ensure that the work you have done will be done right the first time. Some materials can hold up better than others against things like heavy traffic as well as wet environments. If you live in an area that has a lot of rain, then you will want to make sure that you choose a material that will be able to hold up to these conditions. Along with the types of materials that are used, you will also want to make sure that you look at the equipment that is used to do the paving work. Again there is a difference in the equipment that is used and how well your asphalt paving Sarasota Fl job will turn out in the long run.\nOne of the biggest things that you need to think about and make sure that you understand from the beginning is that f the costs that are associated with your paving job. The last thing that you will want is to expect a certain amount for your paving job and wind up paying a lot more due to hidden costs. Get an estimate in writing as well as a contract that clearly states what the amount you will pay is. This can save you from having to pursue a long legal battle to settle the costs for your paving job. Keeping this in mind will help you to know what all to expect with a paving job for your business.\n0 thoughts on \u201cWhat to Expect With an Asphalt Paving Job\u201d",

        "raw_content": "New Moon Leo and Solar Eclipse 2017\nThe New Moon will be exact at 1:30 pm CT.\nIf there is ever a time this year where the energy is most heightened and at a crux, leaving no person unaffected no matter what your beliefs, now would be it.\nWe're at the peak of energy in every sense and incarnation of the word - each element has its own unique imprint, but fire is its kin. Everything at this moment is fire... summer as a season is, the astrological sign Leo is, and solar eclipses hold it as well, particularly when during fire signs. Throw in a few planetary retrogrades and we've got the makings for all sorts of chaos and unruliness. Anyone who has tried to do any thorough, solid grounding or connecting work the last week or so may have been met with a dust storm that's been kicked up celestially due to all of these transitions going on.\nEerily, yet perfectly enough, for about 48 hours surrounding the moon and eclipse (particularly beforehand) we're in the eye of the storm. Everything is at a standstill enough that we can actually SEE and make sense of things, but only if we're looking with the right lenses at the right angles. Pulling focus and adjusting, much like we have to force/relax our eyes to do when looking at optical illusions. Because that's precisely what is going on. The world and universe is a snow globe that just got intensely shook up far longer than it needed to but is finally stopped, yet we're still off-balance. It's all too easy to float off now if we wanted to.\nIf we do, that's okay.\nIt's incredibly hard to make sense of what's going on or even what we're doing. Feeling as though we're on auto-pilot, taking actions and making decisions without any certainty whatsoever is becoming our usual and we're not able to explain why we're doing what we're doing. We just know that's what we have to do. No rationalization, no reasoning.\nWe've been forced to come down into our body more and rely on its intuition and guidance. For the majority of us though we're not comfortable in doing so. Over the years we've lost delicate touch of really knowing the ins and outs beyond physical sensations; we've lost the passing of information of how to bridge the physical with the ether at the same time, and how to recognize and trust our body's navigation and response system energetically, as it is quite different than our spiritual one. If you stop or scan enough to check in with your body, you should be able to pick up how that action or decision feels, and depending on your connection and sensitivity level, will feel it in your torso organs and chakras. It's literally a wall of blockage, almost bloated inflammation in a way, if it doesn't resonate, and smooth if it does.\nThe culmination of the fire and eclipse energies over the last few weeks has brought hundreds of thousands of people to a new level in their journey. We're all being activated at the same time; some of us are cognizant of it and working with it, some are unaware yet still having activation happen, and some defiantly are choosing and are adamant about not taking part. All of these are all okay, though for the latter they are going to have a tougher time continuing about their lives as the world is not going to stop or wait for them, or keep anything the same.\nThere is no person who isn't affected by major shifts going on this year, whether already done or currently in the throes of. More on that in a separate post, but for now know what's coming into manifestation and thus fully integrated embodiment as a result, is exactly what we need.\nSo what can we do to get through this? Take a few minutes over the next couple of days and block everything out around you. Send it all out of your mind and body. Pretend you're in a dark room or ship and you're moving through space without any effort. Push out the feeling and speeds of time. Feel, breathe, and see only yourself and your energy. You'll feel some kind of sensation, whether chills or a wave of liquid pouring through you or openness - everyone is different - but this is the activated you that is starting to step forward and take lead.\nFire signifies energy, new ideas, action; being bold and brazen, and resolute. Fire also creates tension, friction, and conflict, especially when there's too much. Although we are all human and things will slip for each of us during these times, whether words or actions, for those who are steadfast in themselves and the support of growth and life overall it will only solidify their power. We've been seeing that those who spit fire and create chaos are being overwhelming met in opposition with those who all hold a unified energy, in the name of ally-ship, communal care, growth, and love.\nSo know that everything is exactly what needs to be happening right now, that all is in the right order, and that we are all safe. Shed your old skins and selves, step up to the plate of your callings, and let your new selves shine through. Your lives, your selves, and our world we collectively want are all depending on it. <3",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Audio/Visual \u00bb The Seven Little Foys \u2014 Original Cast CD\nFeaturing the 2012 New York Fringe Festival Cast!\nThe story of \u201cTHE SEVEN LITTLE FOYS\u201d inspired a classic film musical (starring Bob Hope and James Cagney), and then later also a TV special (starring Eddie Foy Jr. and the Osmonds). Now ASCAP award-winner Chip Deffaa has adapted this heart-warming saga for the stage, portraying a master entertainer, struggling to keep his family together after the death of his wife.\nEddie Foy was a beloved song-and-dance comedian, and he was also a bit of a rogue. For the most part, he left the responsibilities of parenting to his wife. But when his wife died, he took their seven high-spirited children on the road with him. They created a family act\u2013\u201cEddie Foy and the Seven Little Foys\u201d\u2013that became the top family act of the era, an American institution.\n\u201cThe Seven Little Foys\u201d is one of the few musicals in which young people are stars. Audiences and listeners love seeing and hearing children sing and dance. Every member of the cast gets some solo vocal exposure, as well as singing in group numbers. This lively two-act musical comedy mixes oldtime favorites introduced and popularized by Eddie Foy and his family with infectious new originals by Deffaa. The score \u2013 rich with sentiment \u2013 includes such enduringly popular songs as \u201cChinatown, My Chinatown,\u201d \u201cRow, Row, Row,\u201d \u201cMeet Me Tonight in Dreamland,\u201d \u201c Shine in, Harvest Moon,\u201d \u201cSome of these Days,\u201d \u201cThe International Rag,\u201d and \u201c Moonlight Bay.\u201d As the theatre critic of Time-Out New York noted: \u201cThe audience loved it\u2013singing along, and at times moved to tears.\u201d Both the musical and its cast album (on Original Cast Records) have received glowing reviews. Scott Siegel and Barbara Siegel (TalkinBroadway.com) called the show \u201ca delightful charmer.\u201d Joe Franklin (Bloomberg Radio, WBBR-AM) raved: \u201cI have rarely been so riveted to a stage\u2026.

        "raw_content": "History of Gould School Dates to '74\nThe square acre of land for the Gould or South Wheeling School, located two miles south of Wheeling, was given by William Scruby, Sr., in 1874. Interviews with Ned Gould, who lives near the school site, and with Mrs. Mayme Perrine of Chillicothe, who was Miss Mayme Beat when she attended school there in 1877, resulted in the following information:\nThe winter term of school lasted five months and the spring term three months.\nThe first teacher recalled was Parson Smith. Other early teachers were William and Mollie Carr, Miss Belle Bassett, who later married Dr. Alexander of Farmersville, a Miss Shore and James Robinson.\nThe teachers usually boarded with either the James Gould or William Beat families and paid in the neighborhood of $3.00 per week for Board and Room.\nThe frame building was lighted when necessary by three coal-oil lamps set in brackets on either side of the room. A long wood stove in the center of the building supplied the heat. Drinking water was carried from the Gould farm. Later a cistern was built and in 1894 a bored well was dug.\nThe inside of the building was ceiled.(sic) White paint was used for the ceiling and gray for the sides. Trees were planted in the school yard by Ad Beckwith and Misses Roberta and Ida Beat.\nFor a short time in 1895 Rev. VanHorn conducted Sunday School in the building. It was also used for spelling matches, literary societies and exhibitions. Mrs. Perrine said these exhibitions were events eagerly awaited and well-attended by the people of the community since the entertainment was given by talented performers. She recalls one such exhibition titled \"Three Black Crows.\" The performers wore costumes to resemble crows. Basket dinners were always held on the closing day of school.\nThe curriculum included the study of reading, spelling, history, grammar, physiology, civil government, geography and arithmetic. Spencerian copy books were used. Games played during intermissions were baseball, Blackman, Crack-The-Whip and Anti-Over.\nLast names of some of the earliest patrons of the district recalled were those of Scruby, Gould, Watson, Harris, Baker, Johnson, Platt, Beckwith, Woods, Inderweissen, Bolter, Beat, Brittain, Brenneman and Riggs.\nWilliam Beat and William Scruby were two of the first directors. Later Ned Gould served on the board for twelve years.\nOn October 14, 1916, Gould School was consolidated with the Wheeling School, but continued to function until the close of the school term in the spring of 1940, when it was voted to discontinue the school. Pupils were then transported by bus to the Wheeling school.\nHobart Sprout was the school\u2019s last teacher. In 1948 the building was sold to Abie Corzette, who built a small residence with the school house lumber. The building is situated on his farm about one-half mile from the old school site.",

Implications for policy and practice\nBy Judith Smith & Jennifer Dixon\nThe NHS in England needs to make unprecedented efficiency savings over the next four years to bridge a gap between a virtual freeze in real-terms funding, and rising demand and costs. With this challenge in mind, the Nuffield Trust commissioned a comprehensive study \u2013 Can NHS Hospitals Do More With Less? \u2013 which draws on UK and international published research on the factors known to impact on hospital efficiency. This summary of that study outlines measures that could be used to increase the efficiency of hospitals and identifies some implications for policy and practice. It is clear from this analysis that enough is known about what can be done. The challenge is how. Copies of both the full report and summary can be accessed at www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk .

        "title": "On Books and Unrequited Love \u2014 Lumen",
        "raw_content": "On Books and Unrequited Love\nBY CLAIRE HANDSCOMBE\nA while back, I met a man who, in another life, might have been my soulmate. The profound unlikelihood of our ever being together didn\u2019t stop me falling hard for him. He probably has no idea I feel this way, and that\u2019s likely for the best.\nBut sometimes we\u2019re not ready to get a grip. Sometimes we want to wallow in the melancholy. We might even argue that we need to do this, that it\u2019s part of the process. Books are there for us in those moments.\nUnrequited love. We\u2019ve all been there, haven\u2019t we?\nFriends can only bear to listen to us harp on about it for so many hours, or weeks, or months, before they start to roll their eyes, swerve the conversation away to another topic, or very gently ask us questions like, are you giving yourself a deadline for moving on? Which, translated, means: get a grip. And these friends mean well, they really do. They probably even have a point. But sometimes we\u2019re not ready to get a grip. Sometimes we want to wallow in the melancholy. We might even argue that we need to do this, that it\u2019s part of the process.\nBooks are there for us in those moments.\nThe man I met loves to read, which is, of course, part of the attraction. We recommended books to each other; in the months that followed, I read a couple of his favourites. One of them, George Saunders\u2019 Tenth of December, completely blew me away: all I could do after I finished it, all I wanted to do, was sit with my emotions about this fabulous writing, and by extension about a man I\u2019d met who was smart enough and aesthetically tuned in enough to fully appreciate it. I was less sure about another book he\u2019d liked: when it was over, I wanted to whack him over the head with it repeatedly. But there\u2019s a kind of shared experience in that too, in knowing what he enjoys, in knowing that if I ever see him again I\u2019ll be able to engage him in conversation about its themes (and hopefully restrain myself from unwarranted book-induced violence). So books help us to wallow. To feel closer to the person who seems to be so out of reach.\nThere is also, in the stories out there in the world, the hope of a meaningful life despite the heartbreak, the hope for a friendship with the object of your affection, the hope for healing and for love with someone else, the hope that one day you might even desire that.\nThey also offer hope. Sometimes, in the denial phrase of grief, I want to feed my soul with stories of impossible love that nonetheless worked out. But that\u2019s not the only kind of hope, nor perhaps is it the most important. There is also, in the stories out there in the world, the hope of a meaningful life despite the heartbreak, the hope for a friendship with the object of your affection, the hope for healing and for love with someone else, the hope that one day you might even desire that.\nBooks can also offer what many of us so long to hear when our hearts are aching: I understand. In the days and weeks, even months, after I met this man, I searched the quotes section on Goodreads over and over, desperate for words that would express something of what I felt. I\u2019m not sure why: to legitimate my emotions, to explain them to myself or to others, to feel less alone and less crazy? Probably all of those things.\nI ended up writing a whole novel around this idea, and I\u2019m still not sure I have the answer, but questions like this are valuable to think about, to journal about, to ponder as we process what\u2019s going on inside us so that we can move on.\nBooks clue us in to what might be our emotional journey, illuminating the path ahead. Take, for example, Christina Haag\u2019s beautiful memoir of her time with JFK Jr, Come to the Edge. \u201cI did not know how long it took to get over such a love,\u201d she writes, \u201cand that even when you did, when you loved again, you would always carry a sliver of it in your stitched-together heart.\u201d There is so much wisdom in that. There\u2019s also a signpost for what\u2019s to come for me. And hope of a different kind: permission to move on because moving on does not invalidate what I once felt. It has forever changed me, and I will carry that with me through my life.\nBooks can also help us to process. \u201cWhy is love intensified by absence?\u201d Clare asks in The Time Traveler\u2019s Wife. Or, elsewhere, \u201cBut don\u2019t you think that it\u2019s better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?\u201d I ended up writing a whole novel around this idea, and I\u2019m still not sure I have the answer, but questions like this are valuable to think about, to journal about, to ponder as we process what\u2019s going on inside us so that we can move on.\nBecause, as the narrator puts it in Arthur Phillips\u2019 haunting, tender The Song Is You, \u201cHow much of life could he spend aching? Aching is not a stable condition; it must resolve into something.\u201d In the end, he might be right. And books are there for us, to help this resolution.\nTags Love, Reading, Personal Story, Books, Relationships\n\u2190 On Confidence and Community: Women Who SubmitThe Water Gathers: The Feminist Aspects of Protecting Our Oceans \u2192",

It is vital for you to give your lawyer all the events and information about your accident so that he can have the ability to prove the liability of the defendant.

Still sensing the perspiration dripping from his brow, I finally said, \u201cJoe, I've been doing your return for 15 years. You don't make enough money to be criminally prosecuted for tax evasion.\u201d There was silence on the other end of the phone, then laughter.\nThis is the third case like this that I've heard about over the last couple of weeks. The other two calls were to another CPA and a tax attorney that I know. They just played along to see how far the scammer on the other end of the phone would go. The daily tax updates are constantly advising accountants that the IRS continues to be bombarded with calls from taxpayers who have received unsolicited calls from individuals demanding payment while fraudulently claiming to be from the IRS. The Service urges taxpayers to contact the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) or the IRS if they have any suspicions about a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS and demanding payment.\nPlease remember that the IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by telephone, letter, email, etc., to request social security numbers, Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), passwords, or similar confidential access information for credit card, bank, or other financial accounts. IRS News Release IR-2014-81 provides detailed information on what taxpayers should do if they receive suspicious calls and how they can be vigilant against phone and email scams that use the IRS as a lure.\nSo, what have we learned here today?\nStay calm if you receive a questionable call from someone purporting to be from the IRS.\nNEVER give out any sensitive information over the phone such as social security numbers, credit card numbers, bank account numbers\u2026.\nGive your Marcum Tax Advisor a call if you are unsure or concerned. (We can always use a good laugh.)",

        "raw_content": "amsterdam : HEIA\nHeineken named preferred bidder for two breweries in Ethiopia\nAMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS--(Marketwire - May 5, 2011) - Heineken N.V. today announced that the government of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia has named the company as the preferred bidder for the Bedele and Harar breweries. The winning bids for the breweries were US$85 million and US$78 million, respectively. Heineken will now work with the government to finalise the transaction. The decision follows Heineken's participation in the public auction for the two breweries.\nCommenting on today's announcement, Tom de Man, President of Africa and Middle East for Heineken, said:\n\"We are delighted that our offer to acquire these two breweries has been selected as the winner by the Ethiopian Privatization and Public Enterprise Supervising Agency. This transaction represents another important step in Heineken's strategy of increasing its exposure to emerging markets and we look forward to working with the Ethiopian government to grow the Ethiopian beer market and economy. Ethiopia is one of Africa's most promising beer markets and our expansion into this market underlines our commitment to Africa and strengthens our platform for continued growth in the region.\"\nThe two breweries have a combined market share of 18% with brands such as Bedele, Harar, Hakim Stout and Harar Sofi (malt).\nEthiopia is Africa's second most populated country with 85 million people and its beer market (3 million hectolitres in 2010, source Plato) grew approximately 20% per year over the past 5 years, compared to a GDP growth of 8%. Beer and non-alcoholic malt consumption in Ethiopia was approximately 4 litres per capita in 2010, which is well below the global average of 27 litres and below beer consumption in neighbouring countries, such as Tanzania (7 litres), Uganda (9 litres) and Kenya (10 litres). In addition to a fast growing population and a developing beer market, the country's political stability and improving economy, make Ethiopia a promising, long-term growth market for Heineken in Africa.\nHeineken is one of the world's great brewers and is committed to growth and remaining independent. The brand that bears the founder's family name - Heineken - is available in almost every country on the globe and is the world's most valuable international premium beer brand. The Company's aim is to be a leading brewer in each of the markets in which it operates and to have the world's most valuable brand portfolio. The Company operates 140 breweries in more than 70 countries and sold 205 million hectolitres of beer on a 2010 pro-forma basis. Heineken is Europe's largest brewer and the world's third largest by volume. Heineken is committed to the responsible marketing and consumption of its more than 200 international premium, regional, local and specialty beers and ciders. These include Amstel, Birra Moretti, Cruzcampo, Dos Equis, Foster's, Kingfisher, Newcastle Brown Ale, Ochota, Primus, Sagres, Sol, Star, Strongbow, Tecate, Tiger and Zywiec. On a 2010 pro-forma basis, including FEMSA Cerveza, revenue totalled EUR17 billion and EBIT (beia) was EUR2.7 billion. The average number of people employed is more than 70,000.

To get in touch, use the Tell Us Your Story button on the App.\nDownload the PDF version of the walking trail booklet\nDownload the iPhone/iPad or Android version of the free App!\nThe Glasgow\u2019s Canals Unlocked App and booklet are both available online through the Scottish Waterways Trust website or through the direct download links to the right.\nThe smartphone app, which is available for both iPhone, iPad and Android devices, can also be downloaded direct from Apple iTunes and Android App Stores by searching for \u2018Glasgow Canals\u2019.\nThe printed booklet is also available for free at leaflet drop points across the city. Call 01324 677809 for further information.\nGlasgow\u2019s Canals Unlocked is part of the Scottish Waterway Trust\u2019s wider Unlocking the Story project, which is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, Glasgow City Council and Glasgow City Heritage Trust.\nTracey Peedle, Development Director at the Scottish Waterways Trust, explains:\n\u201cIt\u2019s hugely exciting that we are working with the local communities of North Glasgow to use new technology to bring the heritage of the canals to life. For the first time, you can walk along the waterway and read about how it looked in days gone by, see old photographs and listen to stories and stand right where they took place.\n\u201cWith Glasgow\u2019s Canals Unlocked, you can get a real sense of how the canal is changing as it becomes one of the city\u2019s most important heritage, health, leisure and greenspace amenities.\u201d\nGordon Barr, Heritage Manager for Maryhill Burgh Hall Trust, adds:\n\u201cHave you ever wondered what Glasgow was like in 1790? Now you can see your actual location overlaid on an exclusive archive map that shows how tiny Glasgow was at the time.\n\u201cWith some locations, you can even See Through Time with a unique 'augmented reality' mode that overlays the archive images with the current camera view when you're standing in the right spot!\n\u201cGlasgow\u2019s Canals Unlocked is a terrific, accessible resource which you can tailor to your own needs and interests. We hope it gives everyone more reason to enjoy the fabulous heritage, wildlife and the attractive traffic-free green open space of the towpaths.\u201d\nOther elements of Unlocking the Story, which is led by a partnership of the Scottish Waterways Trust, Scottish Canals, Glasgow City Council, Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust, Lambhill Stables, Glasgow Sculpture Studios and the National Theatre of Scotland, include a free exhibition of Scottish Canals archive materials, which is currently on display at Maryhill Burgh Halls.\nOver twenty volunteers have also been trained to gather local memories and stories about Glasgow\u2019s canals. Some of these stories can be heard on the App and others will be retold on new interpretation boards that will be installed on the Forth & Clyde Canal next year.\nWork is also underway with Glasgow Sculpture Studios to create an imaginative artwork trail to complete this unique and exciting project.\nIssued on behalf of the Scottish Waterways Trust by\nJoanna Harrison, Mobile 07884 187404\nApp created by The Appstillery; Canal mapping illustrations by Kerry Hyndman Illustration\nWalking Trail Booklet and exhibition design and layout by Cactus Design.",

Along with Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, and several other major cities in Guangdong, the territory forms a core part of the Pearl River Delta metropolitan region. With a population of 653,100[3] in an area of 30.5 km2 (11.8 sq mi), it is the most densely populated region in the world.\nMacau was formerly a colony of the Portuguese Empire, after Ming China leased the territory as a trading post in 1557. Originally governing under Chinese authority and sovereignty, Portugal was given perpetual occupation rights for Macau in 1887. Macau remained under Portuguese control until 1999, when it was returned to China. As a special administrative region, Macau maintains a separate political and economic system apart from mainland China.[6]\nMacau is the gambling capital of the world.[7][8][9] Its economy is heavily dependent on gambling and tourism, and in 2006 it surpassed Las Vegas as the world's largest gambling center by revenue.[10] It has a very high Human Development Index and the fourth-highest life expectancy in the world.[11][12] Macau is among the world's richest regions and its GDP per capita by purchasing power parity was higher than that of any country in the world.[13] In 2015, Macau was ranked as the fastest growing metropolitan area in the world by the Brookings Institution.[14]\n11.3.1 Government reports\n11.3.3 Legislation\n11.3.5 News articles\nMain article: Names of Macau\n\u00c0om\u00e9n\n[\u0251\u0302\u028a\u032fm\u0259\u030cn]\nother Mandarin\n\u0627\u064e\u0648\u0652\u0645\u064d\u200e\nau\u53bbmen\u5e73\nAu4 mun2\nOum\u00fan\n[o\u0304u.mu\u030c\u02d0n]\nOu3mun2\nou3mun4*2\n\u00d2-mn\u0302g\n\u00d3\u0324-mu\u00f2ng\n\u6fb3\u9580\u7279\u5225\u884c\u653f\u5340 (or \u6fb3\u9580\u7279\u5340)\n\u6fb3\u95e8\u7279\u522b\u884c\u653f\u533a (or \u6fb3\u95e8\u7279\u533a)\n\u00c0om\u00e9n T\u00e8bi\u00e9 X\u00edngzh\u00e8ngq\u016b (\u00c0om\u00e9n T\u00e8q\u016b)\nau\u53bbmen\u5e73 deh\u5165bih\u5165 ghan\u5e73tsen\u53bbchiu\u5e73\nAu4mun2 Tet6piet6 hang2zin4ki1\n(Au4mun2 Tet6ki1)\nOum\u00fan Dahkbiht H\u00e0hngjing Ke\u016bi\n[o\u0304u.mu\u030c\u02d0n t\u0250\u0300k\u031a.pi\u02d0t\u031a h\u0250\u030f\u014b.tse\u0304\u014b k\u02b0\u0275\u0301y]\nOu3mun2 Dak6bit6 Hang4zing3 Keoi1\nOu3mun4*2 Deg6bid6 Heng4jing3 K\u00eau1\n\u00d2-mn\u0302g Te\u030dk-pia\u030dt H\u00eang-ch\u00e8ng-khu\n[\u0281\u0268\u0292i\u02c8\u0250\u0303w\u0303 \u0250dmini\u0283t\u027e\u0250\u02c8tiv\u0250 (\u0268)\u0283p\u0268si\u02c8a\u026b d\u0268 m\u0250\u02c8kaw]\nThe first known written record of the name \"Macau\", rendered as \"Ya/A Ma Gang\" (\"\u4e9e/\u963f-\u5abd/\u99ac-\u6e2f\"), is in a letter dated 20 November 1555. The local inhabitants believed that the sea goddess Mazu (alternatively called A-Ma) had blessed and protected the harbour and called the waters around A-Ma Temple using her name.[15] When Portuguese explorers first arrived in the area and asked for the place name, the locals thought they were asking about the temple and told them it was \"Ma Kok\" (\u5abd\u95a3).[16] The earliest Portuguese spelling for this was Amaqu\u00e3o. Multiple variations were used until Amac\u00e3o / Amacao and Mac\u00e3o / Macao became common during the 17th century, gradually standardising as Macao, and Macau today.[15]\nMacau Peninsula had many names in Chinese, including Jingao (\u4e95\u6fb3/\u93e1\u6fb3), Haojing (\u6fe0\u93e1), and Haojingao (\u6fe0\u93e1\u6fb3).[15][17] The islands Taipa, Coloane, and Hengqin were collectively called Shizimen (\u5341\u5b57\u9580). These names would later become Aomen (\u6fb3\u9580), Oum\u00fan in Cantonese and translating as \"bay gate\" or \"port gate\", to refer to the whole territory.[17]\nMain articles: History of Macau and History of China\nMacau Peninsula, Taipa, and Coloane are first known to have been settled during the Han dynasty.[18] However, Macau did not develop as a major settlement until the Portuguese arrived in the 16th century. The first European visitor to reach China was the explorer Jorge \u00c1lvares, who arrived in 1513.[19] Merchants first established a trading post in Hong Kong waters at Tam\u00e3o (present-day Tuen Mun), beginning regular trade with nearby settlements in southern China.[19] Military clashes between the Ming and Portuguese navies followed the expulsion of the Tam\u00e3o traders in 1521.[20] Despite the trade ban, Portuguese merchants continued to attempt settling on other parts of the Pearl River estuary, finally settling on Macau.[20] Luso-Chinese trade relations were formally reestablished in 1554 and Portugal soon after acquired a permanent lease for Macau in 1557.[21]\nThe initially small population of Portuguese merchants rapidly became a growing city.[22] The Roman Catholic Diocese of Macau was created in 1576, and by 1583, the Senate had been established to handle municipal affairs for the growing settlement.[22] Macau was at the peak of its prosperity as a major entrep\u00f4t during the late 16th century, providing a crucial connection in exporting Chinese silk to Japan during the Nanban trade period.[23] Although the Portuguese were initially prohibited from fortifying Macau or stockpiling weapons, the Fortaleza do Monte was constructed in response to frequent Dutch naval incursions. The Dutch attempted to take the city in the 1622 Battle of Macau, but were repelled successfully by the Portuguese.[24] Macau entered a period of decline in the 1640s following a series of catastrophic events for the burgeoning colony. Portuguese access to trade routes was irreparably severed when Japan halted trade in 1639,[25] Portugal revolted against Spain in 1640,[26] and Malacca fell to the Dutch in 1641.[27][28]\nMaritime trade with China was banned in 1644 following the Qing conquest under the Haijin policies and limited only to Macau on a lesser scale while the new dynasty focused on eliminating surviving Ming loyalists.[29] While the Kangxi Emperor lifted the prohibition in 1684, Qing authorities again restricted trade under the Canton System in 1757.[30] Foreign ships were required to first stop at Macau before further proceeding to Canton.[31] Qing authorities exercised a much greater role in governing the territory during this period; Chinese residents were subject to Qing courts and new construction had to be approved by the resident mandarin beginning in the 1740s.[32] As the opium trade became more lucrative during the eighteenth century, Macau again became an important stopping point en route to China.[33]\nFollowing the First Opium War and establishment of Hong Kong, Macau lost its role as a major port.[34] Firecracker and incense production, as well as tea and tobacco processing, were vital industries in the colony during this time.[35][36] Portugal was able to capitalise on China's post-war weakness and assert its sovereignty; the Governor of Macau stopped paying annual land rent[37] and annexed Taipa and Coloane to the colony, in 1851 and 1864 respectively.[38] Portugal also occupied nearby Lapa and Montanha,[37] but these would be returned to China by 1887, when perpetual occupation rights over Macau were formalised in the Sino-Portuguese Treaty of Peking. This agreement also obligated Portugal from ceding Macau without Chinese approval.[39] Despite occasional conflict between Cantonese authorities and the colonial government, Macau's status remained unchanged through the republican revolutions of both Portugal in 1910 and China in 1911.[40] The Kuomintang further affirmed Portuguese jurisdiction in Macau when the Treaty of Peking was renegotiated in 1928.[40]\nDuring the Second World War, the Empire of Japan did not occupy the colony and generally respected Portuguese neutrality in Macau. However, after Japanese troops captured a British cargo ship in 1943, Japan installed a group of government \"advisors\" as an alternative to military occupation. The territory largely avoided military action during the war except in 1945, when the United States ordered air raids on Macau after learning that the colonial government was preparing to sell aviation fuel to Japan. Portugal was later given over US$20 million in compensation for the damage in 1950.[41]\nColonial Macau flag from 1976\u20131999\nRefugees from mainland China swelled the population as they fled from the Chinese Civil War. Access to a large workforce enabled Macau's economy to grow as the colony expanded its clothing and textiles manufacturing industry, developed tourism, and legalised casino gaming.[42] However, at the height of the Cultural Revolution, residents dissatisfied with the colonial administration rioted in the 1966 12-3 incident, in which 8 people were killed and over 200 were injured. Portugal lost full control over the colony afterwards, and agreed to cooperate with the communist authorities in exchange for continued administration of Macau.[43]\nFollowing the 1974 Carnation Revolution, Portugal formally relinquished Macau as an overseas province and acknowledged it as a \"Chinese territory under Portuguese administration.\"[44] After China first concluded arrangements on Hong Kong's future with the United Kingdom, it entered negotiations with Portugal over Macau in 1986. They were concluded with the signing of the 1987 Joint Declaration on the Question of Macau, in which Portugal agreed to transfer the colony in 1999 and China would guarantee Macau's political and economic systems for 50 years after the transfer.[45] In the waning years of colonial rule, Macau rapidly urbanised and constructed large-scale infrastructure projects, including Macau International Airport and a new container port.[46] Macau was transferred to China on 20 December 1999, after 442 years of Portuguese rule.[6]\nFollowing the transfer, Macau liberalised its casino industry (previously operating under a government-licensed monopoly) to allow foreign investors, starting a new period of economic development. The regional economy grew by a double-digit annual growth rate from 2002 to 2014, making Macau one of the richest economies in the world on a per capita basis.[47] Political debates have centred on the region's jurisdictional independence and the central government's adherence of \"one country, two systems\". While issues such as national security legislation have been controversial, Macanese residents have generally high levels of trust in the government.[48]\nMain articles: Government of Macau, Politics of Macau, and Elections in Macau\nThe legislature meets in the Legislative Assembly Building in S\u00e9.\nMacau is a special administrative region of China, with executive, legislative, and judicial powers devolved from the national government.[49] The Sino-Portuguese Joint Declaration provided for economic and administrative continuity through the transfer of sovereignty, resulting in an executive-led governing system largely inherited from the territory's history as a Portuguese colony.[50] Under these terms and the \"one country, two systems\" principle, the Basic Law of Macao is the regional constitution.[51] Because negotiations for the Joint Declaration and Basic Law began after transitional arrangements for Hong Kong were made, Macau's structure of government is very similar to Hong Kong's.[52]\nThe regional government is composed of three branches:\nExecutive: The Chief Executive is responsible for enforcing regional law,[53] can force reconsideration of legislation,[54] and appoints Executive Council members, a portion of the legislature, and principal officials.[53] Acting with the Executive Council, the Chief Executive can propose new bills, issue subordinate legislation,[55] and has authority to dissolve the legislature.[56]\nLegislature: The unicameral Legislative Assembly enacts regional law, approves budgets, and has the power to impeach a sitting Chief Executive.[57]\nJudiciary: The Court of Final Appeal and lower courts, whose judges are appointed by the Chief Executive on the advice of a recommendation commission,[58] interpret laws and overturn those inconsistent with the Basic Law.[59]\nThe Chief Executive is the head of government, and serves for a maximum of two five-year terms.[60] The State Council (led by the Premier of China) appoints the Chief Executive after nomination by the Election Committee, which is composed of 400 business, community, and government leaders.[61][62]\nThe Legislative Assembly has 33 members, each serving a four-year term: 14 are directly elected, 12 indirectly elected, and 7 appointed by the Chief Executive.[63] Indirectly elected assemblymen are selected from limited electorates representing sectors of the economy or special interest groups.[64] All directly elected members are chosen with proportional representation.[65]\nTwelve political parties had representatives elected to the Legislative Assembly in the 2017 election.[66] These parties have aligned themselves into two ideological groups: the pro-establishment (the current government) and pro-democracy camps.[67] Macau is represented in the National People's Congress by 12 deputies chosen through an electoral college, and 29 delegates in the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference appointed by the central government.[2]\nThe Macau Government Headquarters is the official office of the Chief Executive.\nChinese national law does not generally apply in the region, and Macau is treated as a separate jurisdiction.[49] Its judicial system is based on Portuguese civil law, continuing the legal tradition established during colonial rule. Interpretative and amending power over the Basic Law and jurisdiction over acts of state lie with the central authority, however, making regional courts ultimately subordinate to the mainland's socialist civil law system. Decisions made by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress can also override territorial judicial processes.[68]\nThe territory's jurisdictional independence is most apparent in its immigration and taxation policies. The Identification Department issues passports for permanent residents which differ from those of the mainland or Hong Kong, and the region maintains a regulated border with the rest of the country.[69] All travellers between Macau and China and Hong Kong must pass border controls, regardless of nationality.[70] Chinese citizens resident in mainland China do not have the right of abode in Macau, and are subject to immigration controls.[71] Public finances are handled separately from the national government, and taxes levied in Macau do not fund the central authority.[72]\nThe Macao Garrison is responsible for the region's defence. Although the Chairman of the Central Military Commission is supreme commander of the armed forces,[73] the regional government may request assistance from the garrison.[74]\nThe central government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs handle diplomatic matters, but Macau retains the ability to maintain separate economic and cultural relations with foreign nations.[75] The territory negotiates its own trade agreements and actively participates in supranational organisations, including agencies of the World Trade Organization and United Nations.[76][77][78] The regional government maintains trade offices in Greater China and other nations.[79]\nMain article: Parishes of Macau\nAdministrative divisions of Macau\nThe territory is divided into seven parishes. Cotai, a major area developed on reclaimed land between Taipa and Coloane, and areas of the Macau New Urban Zone do not have defined parishes.[80] Historically, the parishes belonged to one of two municipalities (the Municipality of Macau or the Municipality of Ilhas) that were responsible for administering municipal services. The Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau superseded the municipalities and is currently responsible for providing local services.[81]\nParish/Area\nNossa Senhora de F\u00e1tima \u82b1\u5730\u746a\u5802\u5340 3.2\nSanto Ant\u00f3nio \u82b1\u738b\u5802\u5340 1.1\nS\u00e3o L\u00e1zaro \u671b\u5fb7\u5802\u5340 0.6\nS\u00e3o Louren\u00e7o \u98a8\u9806\u5802\u5340 1.0\nS\u00e9 \u5927\u5802\u5340 3.4\nNossa Senhora do Carmo \u5609\u6a21\u5802\u5340 7.9\nS\u00e3o Francisco Xavier \u8056\u65b9\u6fdf\u5404\u5802\u5340 7.6\nCotai \u8def\u6c39\u586b\u6d77\u5340 6.0\nNew District Zone A \u65b0\u57ceA\u5340 1.4\nMain article: Geography of Macau\nAerial view of Macau Peninsula\nMacau is on China's southern coast, 60 km (37 mi) west of Hong Kong, on the western side of the Pearl River estuary. It is surrounded by the South China Sea in the east and south, and neighbours the Guangdong city of Zhuhai to the west and north. The territory consists of Macau Peninsula, Taipa, and Coloane.[82] A 1 km2 (0.39 sq mi) parcel of land in neighbouring Hengqin island that hosts the University of Macau also falls under the regional government's jurisdiction.[83] The territory's highest point is Coloane Alto, 170.6 metres (560 ft) above sea level.[80]\nUrban development is concentrated on peninsular Macau, where most of the population lives.[84] The peninsula was originally a separate island with hilly terrain, which gradually became a tombolo as a connecting sandbar formed over time. Both natural sedimentation and land reclamation expanded the area enough to support urban growth.[85] Macau has tripled its land area in the last century, increasing from 10.28 km2 (3.97 sq mi) in the late 19th century[86] to 32.9 km2 (12.7 sq mi) in 2018.[80]\nCotai, the area of reclaimed land connecting Taipa and Coloane, contains many of the newer casinos and resorts established after 1999.[87] The region's jurisdiction over the surrounding sea was greatly expanded in 2015, when it was granted an additional 85 km2 (33 sq mi) of maritime territory by the State Council.[88] Further reclamation is currently underway to develop parts of the Macau New Urban Zone.[89] The territory also has control over part of an artificial island to maintain a border checkpoint for the Hong Kong\u2013Zhuhai\u2013Macau Bridge.[80][90]\nMacau has a humid subtropical climate (K\u00f6ppen climate classification: Cwa), despite its low elevation coastal location south of the Tropic of Cancer, with average relative humidity between 75% and 90%.[91] Similar to much of South China, seasonal climate is greatly influenced by the monsoons, and differences in temperature and humidity between summer and winter are noticeable, though not as great as in mainland China. The average annual temperature of Macau is 22.7 \u00b0C (72.9 \u00b0F).[92] July is the warmest month, the average temperature being 28.9 \u00b0C (84.0 \u00b0F). The coolest month is January, with a mean temperature of 14.5 \u00b0C (58.1 \u00b0F).[91]\nLocated on China's southern coast, Macau has ample rainfall, with average annual precipitation being 2,120 millimetres (83 in). However, winter is mostly dry due to the influence of the vast Siberian High affecting much of East Asia. Autumn in Macau, from October to November, is sunny and still pleasantly warm with lower humidity. Winter (December to early March) is generally mild with temperatures above 13 \u00b0C (55 \u00b0F) most of the time, although they can drop below 8 \u00b0C (46 \u00b0F) at times. Humidity starts to increase from late March. Summer is very warm to hot (often rising above 30 \u00b0C (86 \u00b0F) during the day). The hot weather is often followed by heavy rain, thunderstorms and occasional typhoons.[91]\nClimate data for Macau (1981\u20132010, extremes 1901\u2013present)\n127.4 79.4 71.5 85.3 136.4 155.3 223.2 195.4 176.5 192.3 172.2 159.1 1,773.9\nSource: Macao Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau[93][94]\nThe Macau Peninsula skyline, viewed from Taipa\nCity view of the Macau Peninsula\nMain articles: Demographics of Macau, Macau people, and Religion in Macau\n2016 population pyramid\nThe Statistics and Census Service estimated Macau's population at 653,100 at the end of 2017.[3] With a population density of 21,340 people per square kilometre,[95] Macau is the most densely populated region in the world. The overwhelming majority (88.7 per cent) is Han Chinese, many of whom originate from Guangdong (31.9 per cent) or Fujian (5.9 per cent).[96] The remaining 11.6 per cent are non-ethnic Chinese minorities, primarily Filipinos, Vietnamese, and Portuguese. Macanese, native-born multiracial people with mixed Portuguese ancestry, make up a portion of the Portuguese population.[1] A large portion of the population are Portuguese citizens, a legacy of colonial rule; at the time of the transfer of sovereignty in 1999, 107,000 residents held Portuguese passports.[97]\nThe predominant language is Cantonese, a variety of Chinese originating in Guangdong. It is spoken by 87.5 per cent of the population, 80.1 per cent as a first language and 7.5 per cent as a second language. Only 2.3 per cent can speak Portuguese, the other official language;[98] 0.7 per cent are native speakers, and 1.6 per cent use it as a second language. Increased immigration from mainland China in recent years has added to the number of Mandarin speakers, making up about half of the population (50.4 per cent); 5.5 per cent are native speakers and 44.9 per cent are second language speakers.[99] Traditional Chinese characters are used in writing, rather than the simplified characters used on the mainland. English is considered an additional working language[100] and is spoken by over a quarter of the population (27.5 per cent); 2.8 per cent are native speakers, and 24.7 per cent speak English as a second language.[99] Macanese Patois, a local creole generally known as Patu\u00e1, is a critically endangered language still spoken by several dozen Macanese residents.[101]\nAmong the religious population, Chinese folk religions (including Confucianism and Taoism have the most adherents (58.9 per cent) and are followed by Buddhism (17.3 per cent) and Christianity (7.2 per cent), while 15.4 per cent of the population profess no religious affiliation at all. Small minorities adhering to non-Chinese or Christian religions (less than 1 per cent), including Hinduism, Judaism, and Islam, are also resident in Macau.[102]\nLife expectancy in Macau was 81.6 years for males and 87.7 years for females in 2018,[103] the fourth highest in the world.[104] Cancer, heart disease, and respiratory disease are the territory's three leading causes of death. Most government-provided healthcare services are free of charge, though alternative treatment is also heavily subsidised.[105]\nNon-resident workers living in Macau account for over 25 per cent of the entire workforce.[106] Imported workers largely work in lower wage sectors of the economy, including construction, hotels, and restaurants. As a growing proportion of local residents take up employment in the gaming industry, the disparity in income between local and migrant workers has been increasing.[83] Rising living costs have also pushed a large portion of non-resident workers to live in Zhuhai.[106]\nMain articles: Economy of Macau, Tourism in Macau, and Gambling in Macau\nCasinos on the Macau skyline\nMacau has a capitalist service economy largely based on casino gaming and tourism. It is the world's 83rd-largest economy, with a nominal GDP of approximately MOP433 billion (US$53.9 billion).[4] Although Macau has one of the highest per capita GDPs, the territory also has a high level of wealth disparity.[87] Macau's gaming industry is the largest in the world, generating over MOP195 billion (US$24 billion) in revenue and about seven times larger than that of Las Vegas.[107]\nThe regional economy is heavily reliant on casino gaming.[107] Gambling as a share of GDP peaked in 2013 at over 60 per cent,[107] and continues to account for 49.1 per cent of total economic output. The vast majority of casino patrons are tourists from mainland China, making up 68 per cent of all visitors.[108] Casino gaming is illegal in both the mainland and Hong Kong, giving Macau a legal monopoly on the industry in China.[107]\nCasino gambling was legalised in 1962 and the gaming industry initially operated under a government-licensed monopoly granted to the Sociedade de Turismo e Divers\u00f5es de Macau for 40 years. When this grant expired in 2002, the government allowed open bidding for casino licenses to attract foreign investors.[109] Along with an easing of travel restrictions on mainland Chinese visitors, this triggered a period of rapid economic growth; from 1999 to 2016, Macau's gross domestic product multiplied by 7[107] and the unemployment rate dropped from 6.3 to 1.9 per cent.[83] The Sands Macao, Wynn Macau, MGM Macau, and Venetian Macau were all opened during the first decade after liberalisation of casino concessions.[109] Casinos employ about 24 per cent of the total workforce in the region.[83]\nExport-oriented manufacturing previously contributed to a much larger share of economic output, peaking at 36.9 per cent of GDP in 1985[110] and falling to less than 1 per cent in 2017.[111] The bulk of these exports were cotton textiles and apparel, but also included toys and electronics.[112] At the transfer of sovereignty in 1999, manufacturing, financial services, construction and real estate, and gaming were the four largest sectors of the economy.[107] Macau's shift to an economic model entirely dependent on gaming caused concern over its overexposure to a single sector, prompting the regional government to attempt re-diversifying its economy.[113]\nThe government traditionally had a non-interventionist role in the economy and taxes corporations at very low rates.[114] Post-handover administrations have generally been more involved in enhancing social welfare to counter the cyclical nature of the gaming industry.[115] Economic growth has been attributed in large part to the high number of mainlander visits to Macau, and the central government exercises a role in guiding casino business growth through its control of the flow of tourists.[116][117] The Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement formalised a policy of free trade between the two areas, with each jurisdiction pledging to remove remaining obstacles to trade and cross-boundary investment.[118]\nDue to a lack of available land for farming, agriculture is not significant in the economy. Food is exclusively imported to Macau and almost all foreign goods are transshipped through Hong Kong.[119]\nMain article: Transport in Macau\nAir Macau Airbus A321 taxiing at Macau International Airport\nIn Macau, traffic drives on the left, unlike in either mainland China or Portugal, but like neighbouring Hong Kong. Macau has a well-established public transport network connecting the Macau Peninsula, Cotai, Taipa Island and Coloane Island. Buses and taxis are the major modes of public transport in Macau. Currently two companies \u2013 Transmac and Transportas Companhia de Macau operate franchised public bus services in Macau.[120] The trishaw, a hybrid of the tricycle and the rickshaw, is also available, though it is mainly for sightseeing purposes. Macau has two public bus operators: Transmac and Transportes Coletivos de Macau, which operate routes covering most of the city, making it the best public transport for traveling inside Macau and its islands. Free Casino Shuttle Buses are everywhere in Macau. Due to tourism being the main economic industry in Macau a majority of the larger hotels provide free round trip shuttle bus services which cover the major tourist sites including the airport, Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, Taipa Temporary Ferry Terminal and other sites. Some larger hotels such as Venetian Hotel and Holiday Inn even provide a free shuttle between them. The frequency for each route is usually 15 minutes.\nThe taxi system is noted for having a notoriously poor reputation among tourists and even locals. Common complaints include \"constant overcharging, refusal of passengers when the destination or passenger type does not suit the driver, circuitous routes and even violent behaviour\".[121] In recent years, the Macau government have been making attempts to hold drivers to a higher standard of service through methods such as undercover police prosecuting drivers who violate the taxi regulations on the spot.[122]\nThe Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal and the Taipa Ferry Terminal provides cross-border transportation services for passengers travelling between Macau and Hong Kong, while the Yuet Tung Terminal in the Inner Harbour serves those travelling between Macau and cities in mainland China, including Shekou and Shenzhen.[123]\nThe Macau Light Rail Transit or Macau LRT also known as Metro Ligeiro de Macau is a mass transit system in Macau under construction. It will serve the Macau Peninsula, Taipa and Cotai, serving major border checkpoints such as the Border Gate, the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, the Lotus Bridge Border and the Macau International Airport. It is planned to open in 2019.\nMacau has one active international airport, known as Macau International Airport located at the eastern end of Taipa and neighbouring waters. The airport used to serve as one of the main transit hubs for passengers travelling between mainland China and Taiwan, but now with the introduction of direct flights between those two regions, passenger traffic in this regard has lessened.[124][125] It is the primary hub for Air Macau. In 2006, the airport handled about 5 million passengers.[126]\nMain article: Education in Macau\nA fifteen-year free education is currently being offered to residents, that includes a three-year kindergarten, followed by a six-year primary education and a six-year secondary education. The literacy rate of the territory is 93.5%. The illiterates are mainly among the senior residents aged 65 or above; the younger generation, for example the population aged 15\u201329, has a literacy rate of above 99%.[127] Currently, there is only one school in Macau where Portuguese is the medium of instruction, Macau Portuguese School.\nMacau does not have its own region-wide education system; non-tertiary schools follow either the British, the Chinese, Portuguese, or the Canadian education system. There are currently 10 tertiary educational institutions in the region, four of them being public.[128] In 2006, the Programme for International Student Assessment, a worldwide test of 15-year-old schoolchildren's scholastic performance coordinated by OECD, ranked Macau as the fifth and sixth in science and problem solving respectively.[129] Nevertheless, educational attainment in Macau is relatively low when compared to other high income countries. According to the 2006 by-census, among the resident population aged 14 and above, only 51.8% has a secondary education and 12.6% has a tertiary education.[127]\nAs prescribed by the Macau Basic Law Chapter VI Article 121, the Government of Macau shall, on its own, formulate policies on education, including policies regarding the educational system and its administration, the language of instruction, the allocation of funds, the examination system, the recognition of educational qualifications, and the system of academic awards so as to promote educational development. The government shall also in accordance with law, gradually institute a compulsory education system. Community organizations and individuals may, in accordance with law, run educational undertakings of various kinds.[130]\nSee also: List of hospitals in Macau\nMacau is served by one major public hospital, the Hospital Conde S. Janu\u00e1rio, and one major private hospital, the Kiang Wu Hospital, both located in Macau Peninsula, as well as a university associated hospital called Macau University of Science and Technology Hospital in Cotai. In addition to hospitals, Macau also has numerous health centres providing free basic medical care to residents. Consultation in traditional Chinese medicine is also available.[131]\nNone of the Macau hospitals are independently assessed through international healthcare accreditation. There are no western-style medical schools in Macau, and thus all aspiring physicians in Macau have to obtain their education and qualification elsewhere.[128] Local nurses are trained at the Macau Polytechnic Institute and the Kiang Wu Nursing College.[132][133] Currently there are no training courses in midwifery in Macau.[citation needed] A study by the University of Macau, commissioned by the Macau SAR government, concluded that Macau is too small to have its own medical specialist training centre.[134]\nThe Macau Corps of Firefighters (Portuguese: Corpo de Bombeiros de Macau) is responsible for ambulance service (Ambul\u00e2ncia de Macau). The Macau Red Cross also operates ambulances (Toyota HiAce vans) for emergency and non-emergencies to local hospitals with volunteer staff. The organization has a total of 739 uniformed firefighters and paramedics serving from 7 stations in Macau.[135]\nThe Health Bureau in Macau is mainly responsible for coordinating the activities between the public and private organizations in the area of public health, and assure the health of citizens through specialized and primary health care services, as well as disease prevention and health promotion.[136] The Macau Centre for Disease Control and Prevention was established in 2001, which monitors the operation of hospitals, health centres, and the blood transfusion centre in Macau. It also handles the organization of care and prevention of diseases affecting the population, sets guidelines for hospitals and private healthcare providers, and issues licences.[137]\nAs of 2016[update] Macau healthcare authorities send patients to Queen Mary Hospital in Hong Kong in instances where the local Macau hospitals are not equipped to deal with their scenarios, and many Macau residents intentionally seek healthcare in Hong Kong because they place more trust in Hong Kong doctors than in Mainland-trained doctors operating in Macau.[134]\nMain article: Culture of Macau\nMuseum of Macau.\nSenado Square.\nNa Tcha Temple, Macau.\nThe mixing of the Chinese and Portuguese cultures and religious traditions for more than four centuries has left Macau with an inimitable collection of holidays, festivals and events. The biggest event of the year is the Macau Grand Prix in November,[138] when the main streets in Macau Peninsula are converted to a racetrack bearing similarities with the Monaco Grand Prix. Other annual events include Macau Arts festival in March, the International Fireworks Display Contest in September, the International Music festival in October and/or November, and the Macau International Marathon in December.\nThe Lunar Chinese New Year is the most important traditional festival and celebration normally takes place in late January or early February.[139] The Pou Tai Un Temple in Taipa is the place for the Feast of Tou Tei, the Earth god, in February. The Procession of the Passion of Our Lord is a well-known Roman Catholic rite and journey, which travels from Saint Austin's Church to the Cathedral, also taking place in February.[140]\nA-Ma Temple, which honours the Goddess Matsu, is in full swing in April with many worshippers celebrating the A-Ma festival. In May it is common to see dancing dragons at the Feast of the Drunken Dragon and twinkling-clean Buddhas at the Feast of the Bathing of Lord Buddha. In Coloane Village, the Taoist god Tam Kong is also honoured on the same day.[140] Dragon Boat festival is brought into play on Nam Van Lake in June and Hungry Ghosts' festival, in late August and/or early September every year. All events and festivities of the year end with Winter Solstice in December.\nMacau preserves many historical properties in the urban area. The Historic Centre of Macau, which includes some twenty-five historic locations, was officially listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO on 15 July 2005 during the 29th session of the World Heritage Committee, held in Durban, South Africa.[141] However, the Macao government is criticized for ignoring the conservation of heritage in urban planning.[142] In 2007, local residents of Macao wrote a letter to UNESCO complaining about construction projects around world heritage Guia Lighthouse (Focal height 108 meters), including the headquarter of the Liaison Office (91 meters). UNESCO then issued a warning to the Macau government, which led former Chief Executive Edmund Ho to sign a notice regulating height restrictions on buildings around the site.[143] In 2015, the New Macau Association submitted a report to UNESCO claiming that the government had failed to protect Macao's cultural heritage against threats by urban development projects. One of the main examples of the report is that the headquarter of the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government, which is located on the Guia foothill and obstructs the view of the Guia Fortress (one of the world heritages symbols of Macao). One year later, Roni Amelan, a spokesman from UNESCO Press service, said that the UNESCO has asked China for information and is still waiting for a reply.[144][143] In 2016, the Macau government approved an 81-meter construction limit for the residential project, which reportedly goes against the city's regulations on the height of buildings around world heritage site Guia Lighthouse.[143]\nThe view of Guia Lighthouse (center of the picture) is blocked by the headquarter of the Macau Liaison Office. The Guia Lighthouse case proved that the Macao government had ignored the conservation of heritage in urban planning.[142]\nDom Pedro V theatre.\nMain article: Macanese cuisine\nLocal cooking in Macau consists of a blend of Cantonese and Portuguese cuisines. Many unique dishes resulted from the spice blends that the wives of Portuguese sailors used in an attempt to replicate European dishes. Its ingredients and seasonings include those from Europe, South America, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia, as well as local Chinese ingredients.[145] Typically, Macanese food is seasoned with various spices and flavours including turmeric, coconut milk, cinnamon and bacalhau, giving special aromas and tastes.[146] Famous dishes include minchi, capella, galinha \u00e0 Portuguesa, galinha \u00e0 Africana (African chicken), bacalhau, Macanese chili shrimps and stir-fry curry crab. Pork chop bun, ginger milk and Portuguese-style egg tart are also very popular in Macau.[147]\nMain article: Sport in Macau\n2008 Macau F3 Grand Prix in progress\nIn general, football (soccer) has the greatest popularity in Macau, which has a representative international side, the Macau national football team. The Liga de Elite is the city's semi-professional league, where the \"Big Three\" professional football clubs of Portugal have their own branches: S.L. Benfica de Macau, Sporting Clube de Macau, and FC Porto de Macau, although Porto has not participated in the league since 2012.\nAnother common sport is rink hockey, which is often practised by the Portuguese. The national team of Macau is the most powerful of Asia, always participates in the Rink Hockey World Championship in B category and has many Rink Hockey Asian Championship titles. The last Championship was won in Lishui, Zhejiang, at the 2016 Asian Roller Hockey Championship. Macau also has a basketball team, which qualified for the Asian Basketball Championship twice.\nThe automobile racing event Macau Grand Prix is arguably the most important international sporting event in Macau, mainly with Formula 3, motorcycle road racing and touring car races.\nSince 1989, Macau owns a thoroughbred horse racing track called Taipa Racecourse operated by the Macau Jockey Club. The racecourse has a 15,000-seat grandstand.\nMacau has six sister cities, listed chronologically by year joined:[148]\nLink\u00f6ping, Sweden (1997)\nCoimbra, Portugal (1998)\nS\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil (2000)\nPraia, Cape Verde (2007)\nAdditionally, Macau has other cultural agreements with the following cities:\nSan Francisco, United States (2001)\nDa Nang, Vietnam (2006)\nIndex of Macau-related articles\nOutline of Macau\nCuiheng New Area, since 31 March 2013, a co-operation pilot zone with Macau\n^ a b No specific variety of Chinese is official in the territory.

        "title": "Framing a Shooting (and a Movement) | Mediapolis",
        "raw_content": "By Steve Macek no. 2, Roundtables, vol. 1 March 12, 2016\nLet me begin by first rehearsing the basic facts surrounding Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke\u2019s shooting of Laquan McDonald before moving on to discuss how the Chicago media covered \u2013 or failed to cover \u2014 the original incident, how they reported on the case in the months following the incident and how they\u2019ve covered the wave of protests that followed the release of the notorious dashcam videos.\nOn the evening of October 20, 2014, Chicago police received a 911 call about someone breaking into cars in the Archer Heights neighborhood. When they arrived on the scene, officers found 17-year-old Laquan McDonald carrying a 3-inch knife which he allegedly used to puncture a squad car\u2019s front tires. When they ordered him to drop the weapon, McDonald turned and began walking away. At that point, Van Dyke opened fire and the teen collapsed to the ground. Van Dyke continued firing even after McDonald had fallen and was laying motionless on the street, shooting him some 16 times in the space of 15 seconds. McDonald was pronounced dead an hour later.\nThe mainstream Chicago media\u2019s initial reporting on the McDonald shooting was utterly typical of the way the press reports most such episodes of police violence: it accepted without question the framing of the incident \u2013 by police and their advocates \u2013 as a regrettable but legitimate use of force. For instance, CBS local news carried a package on the shooting that featured Pat Camden, spokesperson for the Fraternal Order of Police, claiming that McDonald had had a \u201ccrazed\u201d look about him and labeling him \u201ca very serious threat\u201d who gave officers \u201cno choice\u2026 but to defend themselves.\u201d The Chicago Tribune\u2019s initial story also relied on Camden as a key source, quoting him as saying that McDonald was \u201cstaring blankly\u201d when confronted by police. The Tribune story also repeated Van Dyke\u2019s allegation that the teenager had \u201clunged\u201d at him, a claim later debunked by dashboard camera footage. In her report, NBC 5 News correspondent Susan Carlson relayed that the police called the shooting \u201ca clear-cut case of self-defense\u201d and said that, when police first encountered him, McDonald was \u201cin a dazed condition, swinging a knife.\u201d Strikingly, the mainstream local media made no effort whatsoever to tie the McDonald case to the very similar police killing of African American teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, which had occurred only a few months before, even though at the time Brown\u2019s death and the Ferguson protests were still very much in the national media spotlight and the focus of an intense debate about tensions between law enforcement and the black community. Nor did the establishment press make mention of the fact that the Chicago police from 2010 to 2014 fatally shot more people than any other police force in the country. In its immediate, rather scant reporting on the McDonald incident, the Chicago media acted as if the larger political and social context of the shooting simply didn\u2019t exist.\nWhile the mainstream media quickly lost interest in what really happened to Laquan McDonald, some local independent journalists insisted on digging deeper. Chief among these was Jamie Kalven, a Chicago-based writer who has a history of using Freedom of Information Act requests to obtain documents concerning police misconduct and human rights violations. In early December 2014, Kalven and University of Chicago Law School professor Craig Futterman issued a statement demanding that the city of Chicago release the dashcam videos from the squad cars present at the McDonald incident. Crain\u2019s Chicago Business ran a short article publicizing Kalven and Futterman\u2019s demands. In early February 2015, Kalven used a FOIA request obtain the official autopsy report and published a scathing expose in Slate revealing publicly for the first time that McDonald had been shot 16 times.1Kalven was awarded the prestigious 2015 George Polk Award for local journalism for his coverage of the Laquan McDonald case.\nInterestingly, even Kalven\u2019s meticulous investigative reporting was not enough to rekindle the mainstream Chicago media\u2019s interest in the case. It was only when the Chicago City Council approved a $5 million settlement with the family of Laquan McDonald, on April 15, 2015, that corporate news organizations once again became interested in the case. Commentators thought it was odd that the settlement was approved suddenly and with little debate or discussion. Also suspicious was the fact that the city and McDonald\u2019s family agreed that the dashboard video recordings of the killing would remain sealed pending the conclusion of all investigations into the incident. There was a brief flurry of commentary in the mainstream media at this stage, most of it focused on the high cost to the city of settlements for police misconduct.\nOf course, what happened next is, as the saying goes, history. Throughout the summer and into the fall, more and more news organizations began investigating the story and public curiosity about the case mounted. On August 5, 2015, freelance journalist and occasional Chicago Reader contributor Brandon Smith brought a lawsuit against the Chicago Police Department seeking the release of dashboard camera videos showing Van Dyke fatally shooting McDonald. Reporters from other, larger media outlets, notably The Chicago Tribune, filed FOIA requests for the video that were promptly ignored. Finally, on November 19, the Cook County judge in the Brandon Smith lawsuit ordered the Police Department to release the videos and Mayor Emanuel announced that the city would comply with the order. The dashboard videos were released within a week and at roughly the same time Cook County State\u2019s Attorney Anita Alvarez announced charges of first degree murder against Officer Van Dyke.\nThe release of the videos famously sparked a wave of demonstrations that continued for nearly two months. Organized by a new generation of youth-led African American activist groups like Black Youth Project and the Chicago chapter of Black Lives Matter, hundreds of protestors marched day after day through the downtown demanding the firing of Superintendent Garry McCarthy and Mayor Emanuel\u2019s resignation. On Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year, the protestors marched through the Michigan Avenue \u201cMagnificent Mile\u201d shopping district, disrupting traffic and blocking access to stores. The protests ultimately forced Emanuel to fire McCarthy.\nThe mainstream media gave extensive coverage to these marches. While some of this coverage did in fact highlight organizers\u2019 demands, much of it emphasized arrests and confrontations between protestors and police, dwelt on the inconvenience to shoppers caused by the marches, and emphasized the revenue lost by retailers. Predictably, the protestors\u2019 perspectives and demands were presented on local TV news and in the big daily newspapers mostly via short soundbites and slogans (e.g. \u201c16 Shots. Stop the cover-up!,\u201d \u201cRahm Resign!\u201d). One had to turn to alternative media sources such as Labor Beat, a long-running cable access TV show produced by local, rank-and-file union activists, to find coverage that featured lengthy (or at least lengthier) interviews with protestors and extended excepts of speeches made at the rallies. Local African American newspaper The Chicago Defender and black-owned radio station WVON also provided in-depth coverage and analysis of the protests and the protestors\u2019 concerns.\nI think one can argue the size and intensity of the protests caught the mainstream media by surprise and forced them to look more closely at the pattern of police violence against Chicago\u2019s black community. Mainstream outlets began running feature stories on Chicago\u2019s dismal record of police shootings of black suspects. The normally conservative, establishmentarian Chicago Tribune even ran an editorial slamming the Police Department for its handling of the McDonald case, hinting at a possible cover-up and calling for an independent investigation. That said, now that the protests have simmered down, the number of stories in the establishment press about police misconduct and the racism of the criminal justice system has declined markedly.\nBy way of conclusion, I\u2019d like to make two observations:\nFirst, as Brendan suggested in his introduction, there is copious evidence to suggest that suppression of the dashcam recordings was coordinated at the highest levels of the mayor\u2019s office. Chicago has a long tradition of these sorts of cover-ups. Mayors as far back as Richard J. Daley have engaged in \u201cgovernment by public relations\u201d and have zealously managed the city\u2019s image by attempting to control the press as well as by producing their own reports and, in some cases, commissioning their own \u201cadvocacy films\u201d in an effort to manage or spin burgeoning scandals. I hope to explore some of that sordid history in a future post for this roundtable. As concerns the Laquan McDonald killing, the mayor\u2019s office had immediate political reasons wanting to postpone a full inquest into the facts of the case. Emmanuel failed to secure a majority of the vote in the February 24, 2015 mayoral election, forcing him into a hotly contested and by Chicago-standard very close April 7 runoff election with another Democrat, Cook County Commissioner Jesus \u201cChuy\u201d Garcia. It is entirely plausible that people in his office attempted to keep the McDonald case under wraps until after the April 7 election for reasons of political expediency. The $5 million settlement, remember, was approved by the City Council just one week after Emanuel won reelection. That can\u2019t be a coincidence.\nSecond, contrary to the implication of at least one of Brendan\u2019s framing questions, the saga I\u2019ve outlined above points not to the obsolescence but rather to the continued centrality of the news reporter as a mediator between important information and news events, on the one hand, and news consumers, on the other. The autopsy report and the dashcam video which sparked months of public protest simply would not have come to light without the dedicated work of independent, critically-minded journalists like Jamie Kalven and Brandon Smith. Granted, the circulation of the video footage of the shooting and the autopsy report via social media effectively discredited the version of events promoted for several months by Chicago\u2019s mainstream news outlets. Having access to the footage allowed people to make up their own mind about whether McDonald \u201clunged\u201d at police and whether or not Van Dyke\u2019s actions were a reasonable response to a \u201ccrazed\u201d suspect. But the fact is that \u201cmedia objects\u201d like the dashboard video did not materialize out of nowhere. Someone had to wage a battle in the courts \u2013 via FOIA requests and lawsuits \u2013 to gain access to them. And that is something good reporters \u2013 whether affiliated with mainstream news organizations or with the \u201calternative\u201d media \u2013 have always done.\nPhotograph by niXerKG \u2013 CC BY-NC 2.0\n1. \u2191 Kalven was awarded the prestigious 2015 George Polk Award for local journalism for his coverage of the Laquan McDonald case.\nchicagopolicing\nPrevious articlePolicing and the Media: An Introduction\nNext articleA Private Grief Made Public\nBeginning with a series of personal recollections, the author reflects upon the politics of racial identity and the militarization of urban space.",

(to nourish).\n(please note: what follows can be found in its entirety on page 178 of tiny beautiful things. what follows are just bits and pieces i wanted to share. all words are by the unparalleled cheryl strayed.)\n\"I've advised people to set healthy boundaries and communicate mindfully and take risks and work hard on what actually matters and confront contradictory truths and trust the inner voice that speaks with love and shut out the inner voice that speaks with hate. But the things is--the thing so many of us forget--is that those values and principles don't only apply to our emotional lives. We've got to live them out in our bodies too.\nYours. Mine. Droopy and ugly and fat and thin and marred and wretched as they are. We have to be as fearless about our bellies as we are with our hearts.\nReal change happens on the level of the gesture. It's one person doing one thing differently than he or she did before...It's you and me standing naked before our lovers, even if it makes us feel kind of squirmy in a bad way when we do. The work is there. It's our task. Doing it will give us strength and clarity. It will bring us closer to who we hope to be.\nYou don't have to be young. You don't have to be thin. You don't have to be \"hot\" in a way that some dumbfuckedly narrow mindset has construed that word. You don't have to have taut flesh or a tight ass or an eternally upright set of tits.\nYou have to find a way to inhabit your body while enacting your deepest desires. You have to be brave enough to build the intimacy you deserve. You have to take off all your clothes and say, \"I'm right here.\"\nThere are so many tiny revolutions in a life, a million ways we have to circle around ourselves to grow and change and be okay. And perhaps the body is our final frontier. It's the one place we can't leave. We're there till it goes. Most women and some men spend their lives trying to alter it, hide it, prettify it, make it what it isn't, or conceal it for what it is. But what if we didn't do that?\nWe don't know--as a culture, as a gender, as individuals, you and I. The fact that we don't know is feminism's one true failure. We claimed agency, we granted ourselves the authority, we gathered the accolades, but we never stopped worrying about how our asses looked in our jeans. There are a lot of reasons for this, a whole bunch of Big Sexist Things We Can Rightfully Blame. But ultimately, like anything, the change is up to us.\nThe culture isn't going to give you permission to have \"robust, adventurous sex\" with your droopy and aging body, so you're going to have to be brave enough to take it for yourself.\nI know as women we're constantly being scorched by the relentless porno/Hollywood beauty blowtorch, but in my real life I've found that the men worth fucking are far more good-natured about the female body in its varied forms than is generally acknowledged. \"Naked and smiling\" is one male friend's only requirement for a lover. Perhaps it's because men are people with bodies full of fears and insecurities and short-comings of their own. Find one of them. One who makes you think and laugh and come. Invite him into the tiny revolution in your beautiful new world.",

        "raw_content": "Common Name: star fruit\nNative Range: Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka\nBloom Description: Rose\nWinter hardy to USDA Zones 10-12 where it is best grown in rich, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained loams in full sun. Best sited in locations sheltered from wind. Generally intolerant of frost. In St. Louis, it may be grown in containers that are overwintered indoors, but it may not bear fruit. Plants generally stop active growth when temperatures dip below 55 degrees F.\nAverrhoa carambola, commonly called star fruit is a small, slow-growing, short-trunked tropical tree that probably originated in Malaysia, Indonesia and southern China. It now extinct in the wild. It is grown commercially in many tropical and sub-tropical areas around the world for its unusual fruit. It also serves as an attractive, multi-branched ornamental tree. It typically grows to 20-30' tall with a broad rounded crown featuring odd-pinnate, medium green leaves (to 6-10\" long). Each leaf has 5-11 ovate to ovate-lanceolate leaflets (to 1.5-3.5\" long). Leaflets are sensitive to light and touch, folding up like mimosas in the dark of night or if disturbed. Fragrant rose flowers (1/4\" across) bloom in the leaf axils throughout the year, typically in up to four separate flushes. Flowers give way to waxy, oblong/ellipsoidal, 5-angled, orange/yellow-skinned fruits (3-6\" long) which are star-shaped when sliced in cross-section, hence the common name. Fruit flesh is juicy and ranges from sour to mildly sweet when ripe. Fruits are typically eaten fresh, combined in salads with other fruits, added to dessert dishes or sliced for use as star-shaped garnishes.\nGenus name comes from the fruit trees named after a celebrated Moorish physician and philosopher Ibn-Ruschd known as Averroes (1126-1198) who was born in Cordoba, Spain.\nNo serious insect or disease problems. Root rot may develop in overly moist soils. Anthracnose, leaf spots and sooty mold may also occur. Potential insect pests include fruit flies, beetles, caterpillars, nematodes, scale and stinkbugs.\nFruit tree or small ornamental shade tree for frost free areas. Interesting container plant for colder areas. Bonsai.",

        "raw_content": "On this, the last day of Thomas' vocational rehab program, I find myself anxious about what the future holds for him.\nHe went from the stress of high school and the hospitalization at the end and then to graduation and then fought to get to feeling better and finally he got this job through vocational rehab. He's struggled and still does with his schizophrenia but he's stayed working and it has been that job that has given him purpose and direction.\nNow, today, with a heavy heart he is going to his last day. He's expressed sadness, which is huge for him to acknowledge his emotions and label them correctly, and he feels lost because he doesn't know what he's going to do with his days. He's been scrambling for days to figure out ways to stay a part of the program and for all intents and purposes they are booting him from the nest today and are sending him into his future, their work with him done.\nIn over a year and really, in the last few months there have been losses both to his psychological health and to his life as he has always known it being a student (wake up, eat breakfast, go to school, go to friend's houses, come home and eat dinner, do homework, watch TV, shower, go to bed), and this day will prove to be a pretty significant loss too.\nI was brought into his therapy again yesterday and I could see that his therapist was shoring up the production, giving Thomas coping skills, and giving me, well, coping skills too a little bit. He asked questions of Thomas about how his illness manifests for him, like when something happens does he jump to scary conclusions like:\nMom is late getting home. I think she has been kidnapped by aliens.\nMom is late getting home. I think she got tied up in traffic.\nWe all came to realize that when he is in the throws of his illness that the conclusions he comes to tend to land on the more scary or sensationalistic side.\nWe set up a knowledge base of things like I mentioned just above, among other things, of what to expect in the coming months and I believe that even the good doctor, who is Thomas' greatest champion and most positive, can see that we are all preparing for the worst in the next few months. We figure if we can know Thomas' base behaviors, that whatever gets thrown our direction from him we will be able to help him cope.\nIt is the dawning of a new day, a new era for Thomas. I've often thought about how this is the time in a young man's (or young woman's) life where if they're going to develop schizophrenia then this is the time. It seems cruel that for the average person this time of change into adult hood is exciting and the future looks so shiny bright but for our loved ones just now developing the illness or who have fought it since they were young, this is a time of trepidation for what is to come.\nThat is precisely where Thomas and I find ourselves today.",

        "title": "Mormon Discussions \u2022 View topic - BYU's Police Dept.: Whatever It Needs To Be On A Given Day",
        "raw_content": "BYU's Police Dept.: Whatever It Needs To Be On A Given Day\nPost subject: BYU's Police Dept.: Whatever It Needs To Be On A Given Day\nAs anyone looking at the board and/or current Utah news is aware, board member Consiglieri (under his real name, obviously) recently won a ruling from the Utah Records Committee, finding that BYU's police department is a government agency for the purpose of the Utah Government Records Access and Management Act.\nAs anyone familiar with this story also probably knows---and by anyone, I mean you who are reading this post right now---BYU took the position that its police department is a private agency of the university (which means ultimately of the LDS church), and therefore is not subject to public scrutiny of its investigative records.\nFunny thing about that: it seems that when laws applicable to governmental agencies are unfavorable to BYU, its police department is claimed not to be a government agency. But when BYU stands to benefit from laws applicable to governmental agencies, suddenly its police officers are government employees. In 2014, BYU took the latter position in front of the Utah Supreme Court. People who hold to a concept of consistent reality might notice that this is the exact opposite of what BYU claimed in the GRAMA case.\nThe 2014 case was called Mallory v. Brigham Young University, 2014 Utah 27, 332 P.3d 922. A PDF of the Utah Supreme Court's ruling is here. If you would rather see it as HTML instead, it's here.\nIn Mallory, the eponymous plaintiff went to a BYU football scrimmage and left on his motorcycle after the game. A BYU traffic cadet working for BYU's police department was directing traffic under the supervision of an officer from BYU's police department.\nthis guy Mallory got into an accident with a car and said it was the BYU traffic cadet's fault because she screwed up directing traffic. So he sued BYU. But BYU argued that it was protected by the Utah Governmental Immunity Act.\nThe Utah Governmental Immunity Act is a statutory scheme (in this context that means \"framework,\" not \"trickery\"---although the latter is debatable) that sets limits on when and how people can sue state and local governments and governmental agencies in Utah. You may have inferred that from the name. One of the provisions in the Act, which is especially pertinent here, is that people seeking to sue the government or a governmental agency have to send a notice of claim to the agency or its designated agent prior to filing suit. The agency then has a period of time to pretend to evaluate the claim and either settle or deny the claim. If a plaintiff does not follow this procedure before filing a complaint in court, under the terms of the Act their lawsuit will be dismissed.\nSo BYU accordingly said in Mallory that its police officers, including this traffic cadet, were operating under the authority of and supervision of the Provo police department. Therefore, according to this argument, the BYU police department is composed of government employees who are shielded by the Utah Governmental Immunity Act, and since Mallory didn't send in a notice of claim before filing suit, the courts had no jurisdiction to consider his case and had to dismiss it. 'Cause he didn't follow the rules. And the majority of the Utah Supreme Court agreed with this argument and ruled that BYU's police officers were government employees. So Mallory's case against BYU was dismissed.\nNote: it's not that BYU's police officers were independent contractors performing a governmental function (directing traffic). It's that its police officers were government employees, full stop. From Chief Justice Christine Durham, \u00b6 21:\nIn light of this well established standard for determining the existence of a master-servant relationship, we hold that the BYU Defendants were servants\u2014and therefore Employees\u2014of Provo City because the city retained the right to control the manner in which the BYU Defendants directed traffic. Support for this determination comes from the Provo City Code, which strictly regulates the circumstances under which the BYU Defendants may perform the city's nondelegable duty of traffic control, and contains several additional controls over the direction of traffic by nonpeace officers, including the city's ability to terminate the BYU Defendants' service at any time.\nTL;DR: That which is a fact under one circumstance, may be, and often is, not a fact under another.\nNow, there is a way you can look at this in the best light possible for BYU and say that the issue isn't whether its police department is a governmental agency in general, but rather whether it is acting as a governmental agency in a particular circumstance. Unfortunately, even though one might make a straight-faced legal argument to that effect, in terms of the totality of the real world, that's the worst light possible for BYU. I'll devil's advocate this below, because \"devil's advocate\" is a verb.\nPost subject: Re: BYU's Police Dept.: Whatever It Needs To Be On A Given D\nSo the Devil's Advocate reads my OP.\nAnd he says, God is an absentee landlord hey, smartass, you know your little quip paraphrasing Joseph Smith about a fact not being a fact in another circumstance? That's actually true. The Utah Supreme Court in Mallory didn't rule on whether or not BYU's police department is always at all times a governmental agency. It only ruled on the narrow question of whether, under that specific set of facts, its officers (and cadet) were acting as government employees. And the court went through the specific factual reasons of why that was so in that case. Provo City has an ordinance that allows its police to supervise private agencies in directing traffic. Per the ordinance, the Provo police are in control of when and how these private agents direct traffic, the Provo police tell the private agents exactly what, when, and how they are to direct traffic, and the chief of police can terminate the private agent's services at any time. That is squarely within the parameters of a master-servant relationship, as the court held.\nSo, the Devil's Advocate continues, BYU isn't contradicting itself between Mallory and these GRAMA cases. They're saying that under the specific circumstances in Mallory, they were acting as government employees, as provided by Provo city ordinance. But that doesn't mean that BYU's police are always, at all times, government employees. You have to look at the scope of what they were doing in a given case.\nThat, Devil's Advocate says, is how they can make a good faith argument in the GRAMA matters that when BYU police interviewed Joseph L. Bishop about allegedly sexually abusing a young female missionary, they're not subject to government records disclosure requirements. Because when they interviewed Bishop about these criminal allegations, BYU police were not acting as governmental law enforcement officers. They were instead acting as the private security agents of a private church-owned university.\nWhile they were investigating a felony.\nWhich means they were not treating this as a criminal matter, but a private one.\nWhich means they were covering it up.\nVery nice to see you, Dr. Darth J. Your insights into these matters are, as always, trenchant and valuable.\nyes, it's good to see you Darth, I hope all is well with/for you.\nI am never surprised that the church aggressively pursues its legal rights. It was born fighting the law with Joseph Smith, fought the law over the years with BY and the other \"prophets\" and the today's leadership consists of many lawyers. If there is ever an organization that loves legal reasoning and legal analysis, it is the church. Hell, the whole church system of baptism, temple covenants and handshakes is itself overly legalistic.\nRemind me, was Christ prone to speaking out of both sides of His mouth dependant on circumstantial necessity?\n*I love it when Darth J shows up.\nWhat are the odds that BYU appeals this and a higher court sides with them?\nMy Blogs: Weighted Glory | Worlds Without End: A Mormon Studies Roundtable | Twitter\nIf I was Consig I'd ask any temple going Mormon judge assigned this case to recuse themselves due to the convenants they take out in the temple. The one about time, talents and all that to building up the kingdom of God.\nGreat comment about Mallory, Darth!\nHere is something funny I found out only a few days before the hearing.\nEverybody was waiting for Judge Laura Scott to get around to making her ruling on the SLT appeal in the Honor Code case. Everybody knew that she was going to rule BYUPD was a governmental agency.\nA few days before the ruling, I found out that Judge Scott had already ruled BYUPD was a governmental agency! And she did so back in January of 2017! And it was in the same case appealed by the SLT!\nIn that case, the Utah Records Committee did what it has historically done; which is to rule that BYUPD is not a governmental agency and therefore not subject to GRAMA.\nThis happened in summer of 2016.\nThe Salt Lake Tribune appealed to District Court where it was assigned to Judge Laura Scott.\nNot content to let the appeal process play out, one of the parties filed a motion to dismiss the appeal before it was even heard.\nAnd the party that filed the motion to dismiss the appeal was, believe it or not, the Utah Records Committee; the very entity from whose decision the appeal had been taken.\nI am not kidding about this.\nThe Utah Records Committee filed a motion to dismiss the appeal that was taken from the decision the Utah Records Committee itself made.\nThe basis for the motion to dismiss, you ask?\nThe basis for dismissing the appeal argued by the Utah Records Committee was that the Utah Records Committee had made the correct decision!\nBut isn't that the entire point of the appeal, you ask?\nIndeed it is, which makes this look all the stranger. And makes it potentially look like the Utah Records Committee is in the tank for BYU.\nThe result was that Judge Laura Scott denied the motion to dismiss.\nAnd as part of her 17-page detailed opinion in denying the Committee's motion to dismiss, she specifically found that BYUPD was a governmental agency and was subject to GRAMA.\nHer order denying the motion to dismiss was filed in January of 2017.\nThis is why everybody knew what her decision would be; because she had already made it.\nAnd this possibly explains why it is BYUPD did not even show up at the appeal to the Committee in my case last week.\nOh, and back to Mallory, Darth.\nJudge Scott cited to the Mallory case as support for her position that BYUPD is a governmental agency, and was not persuaded by the Committee's arguments to the contrary.\nSo you are in good company with your interpretation of the Mallory case.\nGood seeing you, by the way!\n\"but rather whether it is acting as a governmental agency in a particular circumstance.\"\nThe PD was speaking as a man in this case.\nHas been a few decades now but I remember BYU Police had more powers than most local police depatments. BYU cops could go anywhere in the State without calling on local agencies and arrest, detain, whatever.\nHave been gone for some time, but maybe others will remember this one. Not sure if the State changed how they operated or not.\nThey were a wild and crazy bunch back in the Wilkinson days. Might as well have put on their sashes and done some Danite drills.",

        "title": "Are Kanye West\u2019s Ties to the Kardashian Clan Destroying His Brand?",
        "raw_content": "Are Kanye West\u2019s Ties to the Kardashian Clan Destroying His Brand?\nTheWrap 5/22/2015 Tim Kenneally\nKim Kardashian and Kanye West may, from all appearances, have a perfectly happy union. But from a brand perspective, it might be a marriage made in hell. At least for West, who wed the reality TV star in May of last year.\nThe oft-controversial hip-hop star has always drawn his share of public criticism. But Sunday night's Billboard Music Awards, which saw the rapper roundly booed by the audience -- as were his sisters-in-law Kylie and Kendall Jenner, who introduced his performance -- seemed to bring the rancor to a new level, prompting the question: Is West's association with the Kardashian clan damaging his credibility?\nTheWrap spoke to Lyndsey Parker, managing editor of Yahoo Music, and Linda Ong, CEO of brand consulting firm TruthCo, to determine whether West's ties with the Kardashian reality TV juggernaut are dragging down his brand.\nParker, who was in attendance at the Billboard Music Awards, told TheWrap that West was booed as much for a poor performance as anything else. She also emphasized that West is capable of attracting public scorn all on his own, as evidenced by his Taylor Swift encounter at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards and his hours-late appearance at the Bonnaroo music festival in 2008.\nShe did, however, say that his ties to the \"Keeping Up\" crew could be compounding his image problem.\n\"I don't think the Jenner/Kardashian association helps him necessarily; it's another strike against him,\" Parker offered.\nBlowhard or not, West's reputation as a groundbreaking artist and thoughtful songwriter has been solid for the past decade -- a blessing that's also half-curse when it comes to his union with Kardashian.\nFans who came to know West as a fairly intellectual musician \"might have been disappointed to see that he basically just bagged this trophy wife reality star instead of maybe marrying someone that some people would see as an intellectual equal,\" Parker noted. \"He's a really intelligent guy, as much of a jerk as he can be... and here he married someone that, at least to all people on the outside looking in, seems incredibly vapid, superficial and not very smart.\"\nWhich might just make him a smart guy with a less intellectual wife, if not for his tendency to mix business -- and art -- with pleasure. Parker noted, in particular, West's widely ridiculed \"Bound 2\" video, which was mocked as a cheesy travesty that focused far more on Kardashian's physical attributes than West's artistic vision.\n\"I mean, that was a low point,\" Parker told TheWrap. \"I almost thought, 'Is he doing this for The Onion?' ... It was all about Kim and [putting] her assets on display, and it was just terrible. Is that good for his career?\"\nFurther including Kardashian in his artistic endeavors, Parker cautioned, would be a mistake.\n\"I wouldn't be surprised if Kim Kardashian is on the next album. He's really involving her in a lot of stuff, and I feel like, yeah, maybe he should separate church and state a little more.\"\nParker points to the marriage of oft-maligned actress Gwyneth Paltrow and musician Chris Martin as an example of how to maintain that separation, even if they ultimately divorced.\n\"Gwyneth wasn't singing on a Coldplay album, Chris Martin wasn't in her movies... they pretty much kept things separated, and at least for a while it worked,\" Parker noted. \"Everybody knew they were married, but her public hate never rubbed off on him.\"\n\u00a9 Provided by TheWrap Is Kanye West\u2019s Brand Being Destroyed by Kim Kardashian and Her Reality Show Family?\nNonetheless, barring a guest appearance by Kardashian on West's new album, Parker doesn't see Kanye's fans abandoning him on the musical front because of their connection.\n\"I think the people who buy his records don't concern themselves with the celebrity stuff as much,\" Parker said. \"He's given people enough reasons to be disgusted with him and [say], 'I'm not going to buy his albums anymore.\"\nLike Parker, Ong also noted a conflict between West's musical accomplishments and his choice of soul mate. The world was introduced to West as an artist, Ong said, and \"aligning himself, marrying and becoming part of Kardashian Inc. is sort of at odds with artistic culture, and really the principles of artists.\"\nWest, as Parker noted, has been wise to keep his appearances on E!'s \"Keeping Up With the Kardashians\" to a minimum, showing up in just a handful of episodes over the past few years. But even without such direct crossover, the sheer scope of the Kardashians' cultural imprint could in itself be diminishing West's standing.\n\"In some ways, he's become more of a Kardashian than Kim has become Mrs. West, and that sort of shows you the power of the Kardashian machine,\" Ong pointed out.\nSo how does West avoid being completely swallowed up by the gravitational pull of the Kardashian machine? Ong suggested that he turn the public's focus back to his considerable musical talents.\n\"His persona has really been more defined by the Kardashian narrative in recent months and years, and to really fight and try to establish himself as an artist again, he's gotta make some noise.\"\nHow much people enjoy that noise will largely determine whether West is perceived as a credible artist or an accessory for his reality TV star wife.\n\"A lot of it has to do with the quality of his music -- if his music's really good, he's an artist,\" Ong said. \"If people are not so happy with his performance and his music, he's a sellout.\"\nMore From The Wrap\n'The View' Guest Co-Host Michelle Collins on Billboard Music Awards: 'Somebody Finally Shut Kanye Up' (Video)\nKanye West Apologizes to Beck for Grammy Outburst",

        "raw_content": "Giovanni Pierluigi DA PALESTRINA (c1525 - 1594): \"How fair thou art - Biblical Passions by Palestrina\"\nrec: June 15 - 18, 2015, London, St Augustines Church, Kilburn\nScores Canticum Canticorum\nAlma redemptoris mater; Ave regina coelorum; Descendi in hortum meum [2]; Ecce tu pulcher es [2]; Nigra sum, sed formosa [2]; Osculetur me [2]; Pulchrae sunt genae tuae [2]; Quam pulchri sunt gressus tui [2]; Regina coeli; Salve Regina; Sicut lilium inter spinas [1]; Sicut lilium inter spinas [2]; Surge, propera amica mea [2]; Tota pulchra es anima mea [2]; Trahe me, post te [2]; Veni, veni dilecte mi [2]\nSources: [1] Liber primus motettorum, 1569; [2] Motettorum liber quartus ex Canticis canticorum, 1584\nDavid Hurley, Timothy Wayne-Wright, alto; Julian Gregory, tenor; Christopher Bruerton, Christopher Gabbitas, baritone; Jonathan Howard, bass\nGiovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina is almost exclusively associated with sacred music. That is understandable as he was in the service of the church all his life. However, he also wrote madrigals: in 1555 he published a book with four-part madrigals, followed many years later by two books of madrigals for five and four voices respectively (1581, 1586). This part of his output receives little attention; the discography includes only one disc exclusively devoted to his madrigals. The motets on texts from the Song of Songs (Canticum Canticorum as they are called in the Vulgate, the Latin translation of the Bible) are pretty close to the madrigals as far as their stylistic features are concerned. The King's Singers have recorded a selection of eleven motets from the collection of 29 which he published as his fourth book of motets in 1584. The text Sicut lilium inter spinas appears twice. One of the settings is from the first book of motets of 1569 (a fact which is not mentioned in the track-list or the booklet).\n\"Framing the twelve (sic) settings of Canticum Canticorum on this recording are four Marian motets by Palestrina\", David Hurley writes in his liner-notes. These are the classical four Marian antiphons which have been set so often throughout history. Referring to the Salve Regina he states that \"[the] fervour of this setting matches the passion of the settings of words from the Song of Songs.\" It is regrettable that he makes no attempt to connect the two categories represented here and also misses the point in regard to the meaning of the Song of Songs motets.\nThe connection between them is the veneration of the Virgin Mary. Since ancient times the love poetry of the Song of Songs has been given a spiritual interpretation. In his notes to Pro Cantione Antiqua's recording Bruno Turner writes: \"But the Songs must be seen, and the music heard, in the context of an age of Roman Catholic Counter-Reformation fervour, an age devoted by Roman authority to the triumph of the Virgin as well as her tenderness. The Spouse of the allegory is not only the Church or the individual soul but the bride who is represented by Our Lady the Mediator and by the Queen of Heaven, the One arrayed for battle, even the woman of the Apocalypse; certainly to Palestrina's contemporaries, the Virgin who won the Battle of Lepanto (1571) and for whom the Papacy instituted the Feast of Our Lady of Victory.\" This also explains that Palestrina dedicated this collection to Pope Gregory XIII. \"[This] particular Pope was a worldly man\", Hurley writes. That may be true but in respect to these motets his previous mention of Gregory's active support of the Counter Reformation is far more relevant. After all, the status of the Virgin Mary was one of the main points of difference between Protestants and Catholics.\nFrom that angle the mixture of motets on texts from the Song of Songs and the four Marian antiphons makes much sense. They are certainly connected in the passion with which they are set - as far as one can expect that from Palestrina who certainly is not the most 'passionate' of composers - but more significantly they emphasize the importance of the Virgin Mary in the Roman Catholic doctrine. They represent two sides of the church, as it were. The antiphons were part of the liturgy: they are a fixed part of the Liturgy of the Hours. The Song of Songs motets, on the other hand, are not suitable for liturgical use but were rather written for domestic performance. The fact that no fewer than eleven editions of this collection are known attests to their popularity.\nThese differences should also be reflected in the performances and maybe even the venues where they are recorded. The acoustic is pretty intimate and that suites the motets rather well. The same goes for the 'madrigalistic' approach of The King's Singers. As a result the texts are clearly audible, despite the largely polyphonic texture of these motets. There is not much text expression here and the performers don't try to underline some elements in the text. However, there are some traces of contrast between the motets, for instance the jubilant nature of Tota pulchra es - \"All fair thou art\" which inspired to this disc's title - and the ensuing Nigra sum: \"I am black but beautiful\" which is dominated by dark colours.\nI would have liked a little more reverberation in the Marian antiphons. Their liturgical character doesn't come off that well; I also think that this kind of music requires a slightly larger ensemble than one-to-a-part as we have here. I also would prefer a more 'liturgical' style of singing where the words would get more weight.\nThe documentation is poor. The booklet editor not only forgot to mention that one of the motets is from another source, the collections from which the Marian antiphons are taken is also not given.\nI just wonder which audiences a disc like this aims at. Those who want to have a recording of the complete Song of Songs motets can choose from several interpretations, for instance Pro Cantione Antiqua but also the Hilliard Ensemble (Virgin Classics), Magnificat (Linn Records), the Ensemble William Byrd (Jade) and the Capella Dvcale Venetia (CPO). There are probably more. This disc may appeal mainly to admirers of The King's Singers. They will certainly not be disappointed.",

        "raw_content": "Cracking Down on Millions in Back Child Support\nBack child support is an issue parents across the commonwealth are fighting for everyday. Here in central Virginia, families in Charlottesville and Albemarle County are owed $45.7 million in back child support. The Department of Child Support Enforcement is cashing in on collections by cracking down.\nTo get a better idea of who owes all that money, we sat down with Mary Wilson, the district manager for the Division of Child Support Enforcement. Wilson says it comes from a combination of people \u2013 those who are paying what they can, those who have fallen on hard times and just don't have it, and those who have no intention of paying up and are making every effort to dodge the system. The department is on the hunt to find the ones dodging the system.\n\"There's a difference between being poor - and wanting to do what you need to do to support your child - and not being able to, and what I call 'duckin' and dodging.'\" Wilson said.\nIn Albemarle, families are owed a whopping $15.7 million, and the number is even higher in Charlottesville at $29.9 million.\nWilson said, \"This includes everything that's owed, whether it's for children who have already emancipated, or children that are minors needing support on a monthly basis.\"\nWilson says they deal with roughly 5,000 cases at any one time but she would not identify any individuals due to confidentiality issues. Nor would she say what percentage of those parents have fallen on hard times or ran to evade the system.\nWilson said, \"Sometimes we know where those are, we find them today, we find them for a week, we're able to get a little bit of money and then they go underground again.\"\nFamily law attorney Laura Blair Butler deals with child support cases. She says while negligence is sometimes a factor, another big contributor is failure to understand the system.\n\"Maybe your obligation was for two children and one child has reached the age where child support is no longer obligated - or custody has changed, or a job has changed. Through no fault of your own income has decreased. That is going to require to go into court and ask for a modification, and it needs to be brought in immediately,\" she stated.\nButler says it is important for clients to go through the Department of Child Support Enforcement, because of its relationship with the court system, but also for its resources.\nButler said, \"In order to collect child support, one of the difficulties is finding the party that's obligated. It can be tremendously difficult if they are in a situation where their Social Security [number] is not being used on a regular basis, if it's somebody that's not filing taxes.\"\nWilson says evaders will often move, get paid under the table and put bills in other people's names.\nWhen asked how they find these people, Wilson responded, \"It's difficult. We do have the ability with our system to match and see if they have a cell phone, if they have power and those kinds of utilities in their name. We have power where we can go and look for assets - Do they have a vehicle? Do they have land? Do they have a boat?\"\nThe department can also suspend a driver's license, freeze bank accounts, go after retirement funds, file liens or even deny passports. On top of that, it has partnerships with other states and countries.\n\"You can't move around among states to forget child support.\" Wilson stated. \"We have people that are in Europe, that are in Israel, some in Mexico, some in Canada.\"\nWilson says the last resort is incarceration, but most often working with the non-custodial parents pays off. \"We want to try and tell them, this is what you owe right now, pay this little bit off. Stay current, you'll do better.\"\nMany people who owe want to do the right thing, but aren't able to pay up.\nWilson said, \"You look at the amount of manufacturing jobs that this area has lost, it is significant and they've been replaced somewhat, but only with service jobs and they don't have benefits.\"\nButler stated, \"And sometimes I think people get very discouraged, so they're like, 'there is no way I can pay this', and you can keep your head in the sand.\"\nChild support enforcement partners with the Workforce Center to help provide employment and create payment plans.\nThere is also the Intensive Case Monitoring Program (ICMP), where instead of going to jail, a judge could order a person into ICMP to identify personal barriers and get connected with the right resources.\n\"Sometimes that might be a skill set - going to CATEC, PVCC - it may be doing some drug program because there is substance abuse issue,\" Wilson stated.\nShe says out of all the work it does to help both custodial and non-custodial parents, the true beneficiary is the children.\nStatewide child support enforcement collected $657 million in fiscal year 2012. The Charlottesville District, which includes the city and nine surrounding counties, collected nearly $23 million in child support.\nThis past January alone, less than $1 million was collected in Charlottesville and Albemarle; 89 percent of that money came from wage withholding.\nClick here for more information on child support from the Virginia Department of Social Services.\nClick here for the Virginia Child Support Payment Solutions Center.",

His unique style had already taken shape when he decided to obtain a BA in Graphic Design, a career that has allowed him to lead a parallel life. As an Art Director and Illustrator, he has worked for various renowned brands and advertising agencies, both in Mexico and in the US.\nBayo\u2019s paintings depict somber and melancholic worlds, where the main character is the psyche as an axis of conflicts. His stroke signals a constant path where anxiety is inescapably contagious. Characters tend to avoid frontal sight, turning their eyes towards themselves and exposing their fragility. Dispirited forms allow us to prove that their author does not follow the statutes of reason. Scenes that simultaneously depict the rigor of obsessive details, the vagueness of repetition, and the sudden explosion of motion. All in an effort to express the architecture of his emotions, with a complexity that can never remain subtle.\nIn his most recent collection, Bayo explores the dissociation between a person and his/her environment, as well as between human nature and the most intimate inner self, triggering an internal imbalance that leads him/her to perceive a distorted reality.\nBayo currently lives in Austin, Texas.\nwww.bayo.me\nwww.artishox.com\nwww.facebook.com/mr.bayo",

        "raw_content": "Friday\u2019s busy day of competition can best be characterized as 3 victories, a shocker, and a blessing in disguise.\nFriday began with a bit of a scare in the 4 x 800 Meter Relay. Isaiah Robinson (2:01) handed off toJeremy Stern far behind the pack. But this team is full of chasers who rise to the competition over and over again. Stern fought to regain position in 1:57; Nick Rafacz then popped a 1:55 to put Ty Moss in tremendous position to take the victory in a season best 7:47.63.\nMoss returned about an hour later in the 800 to show Danville\u2019s Johnny Leverenz that he was the real deal. Not content with merely qualifying to day #2, Moss hung tight in this heat\u2019s \u201churry up and wait\u201d style of racing, and kicked for the victory in 1:55.43.\nThe third and final victory of the day came in the 4 x 400 Meter Relay. Kyle Bender led off and was followed by the returning trio of Moss, Rafacz, and Espinosa, who punched their ticket to Saturday with a near 2-second win over Crete Monee.\nField events rolled our way as competition concluded in Pole Vault with a qualifying mark of 13\u2032 9\u2033, a leap of relative ease for Adam Peterson. The shocker of the day came in the Triple Jump as Austin Parks was only able to register a jump of 44\u2032 1.5\u2033. Just when everyone thought Parks was done for the weekend, the finalists were announced\u2026by only half of an inch, Parks was the 12th and final man in.\nConnor Horn had his work cut out for him in the 1600. Unlike last year, Horn entered the stadium healthy and ready to engage the race. He could not have expected the top 5 times in his heat to all fall at 4:14. Finishing in 4:21.75, he gave all he had and never let up. After emptying his stomach several times and nursing several blisters, the coaches met with him to gauge his health. Little did he know that not qualifying in the mile may have been the best thing to happen to the team in years.\nWhen the sun rose on O\u2019Brien Stadium on Saturday morning, the team competition was open to several teams, and thankfully we were one who happened to be in the hunt.\nOur first event on the track was the 4 x 800 Meter Relay, and it was one of our proudest moments in team history. Robinson was replaced by Horn with the belief he could hold us closer to the pack. Handing off in 11th place, Horn had posted a personal best split time of 1:57.6. Stern moved quickly in his first lap from 11th to 6th and posted a 2-second best of 1:55.6. Rafacz (1:54.0) was the key to the victory. Within the first lap he moved us into 2nd place, well within striking distance for Moss who chased down Sandburg\u2026and sat. Watching from the stands, the coaches knew he would not quit until victory was in hand. With 250 meters to go, Moss moved up, beyond, and through to a STATE CHAMPIONSHIP and a new school record of 7:40.21, the nation\u2019s second fastest time and less than .2 seconds away from a State record. 10 points were on the board.\nThe 3200 Meter Run for both Nick Bushelle and Michael Widmann was an exercise in surviving the rapidly rising temperatures. While occasionally runners in Section 1 can place into the overall performances, Saturday was the ultimate exception with several morning racers achieving All-State places. Bushelle himself said that after only two laps, he felt like he was melting, and his feet were burning. Widmann was spent and his legs nearly gave out again. In the end Widmann was 16th overall in 9:33.30, and Bushelle was 18th in 9:37.12. Widmann will return next year as the ninth fastest overall competitor.\nMoss\u2019s second race of the day, his fifth overall of the weekend, got out tremendously fast. Caught in the pack for too long, Moss couldn\u2019t mount a kick to catch Johnny Leverenz, who would not be denied. Moss achieved his second All-State performance with a 3rd place in a 10-year record-breaking time of 1:54.02. The team stood at 17 points.\nThe 400 Meter Dash was lightning quick, and if anyone blinked, the finish was a blur. All nine competitors were finished in under 49 seconds. From across the track, the coaches surmised that Espinosa was 6th\u2026maybe 7th. When the results were posted, we were shocked and ecstatic that he blasted through in 48.18 seconds for 4th place. Add 6 more points to the team count\u2026a total of 23.\nWith Parks unable to better his mark in the Triple Jump, taking 12th place, the pressure fell to Peterson to, literally, rise to the occasion. Leaping a season best 14\u2032 6\u2033, Peterson added 4 more points with his 6th place finish. With one event to go, Neuqua Valley had earned 27 points.\nIt always come down to the 4 x 400\u2026and we wouldn\u2019t have it any other way.\nYork had secured 1st place. Lake Park and Edwardsville sat idle at 36 points. A victory in the 4 x 400 relay guaranteed us 37 points and a team trophy. Anything less left us in 4th.\nEspinosa, Bender, Rafacz, and Moss ran their hearts out. They fought\u2026they chased\u2026they, as we always ask, left everything out on the track. East St. Louis could not be caught. Naperville Central was tremendous. And we placed 3rd with a season best 3:17.34, just .29 seconds away from a school record.\nThere will always be a touch of disappointment to come so close to a State team trophy, yet not realize that dream. That being said, this team left O\u2019Brien Stadium with absolutely no regrets, knowing, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they had given of themselves to the utmost of their potential and talent. It\u2019s an old cliche, but the sentiment rings true\u2026pain is temporary, PRIDE IS FOREVER.\nWe are proud to have shared the track with so many amazingly talented athletes. In the spirit of competition, we all push one another to rise to our best selves.\nWe are proud to have exchanged such thoughtfully humble words with so many dedicated coaches. In the end, what we all truly want is for our young charges to achieve their dreams.\nWe are proud of and eternally grateful to all our supporters who traveled hours to Charleston, or sat by their computers, or followed us via Facebook and Twitter. Without you, none of this could have been achieved.\nFinally, we extend a heartfelt congratulations and tip our batons to York High School Head Coach Stan Reddel. This ITCCCA Hall of Fame coach is retiring after more than 30 years of dedication to Track and Field. A team State Championship is the purest and most perfect way for his legendary career to end. Godspeed, Coach Reddel!\nFor full results of the 2014 IHSA State Track and Field Championship, check http://ihsa.org/SportsActivities/BoysTrackField/StateSeriesInformationResults.aspx?url=/data/trb/3result2.htm\nFor further media coverage, pictures, and videos, check out our Facebook and Twitter pages.",

        "title": "News Hounds: Bill Bennett Doesn't Get It. Trying To Defend His Racially Insensitive Comments On Hannity & Colmes, He Misses At Least Half The Reason People Were Offended",
        "raw_content": "Bill Bennett Doesn't Get It. Trying To Defend His Racially Insensitive Comments On Hannity & Colmes, He Misses At Least Half The Reason People Were Offended\nBill Bennett appeared on Hannity & Colmes last night to talk about his controversial remarks about abortion and blacks made earlier in the week on his radio show. But his explanation seemed to indicate he didn't understand what the outcry is really about.\nAs ABC News described the incident on Bennett's radio show:\nOn the Wednesday edition of his radio show, \"Bill Bennett's Morning in America,\" syndicated by Salem Radio Network, a caller raised the theory that Social Security is in danger of becoming insolvent because legalized abortion has reduced the number of tax-paying citizens. Bennett said economic arguments should never be employed in discussions of moral issues.\nIf it were your sole purpose to reduce crime, Bennett said, \"You could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down.\n\"That would be an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down,\" he added.\nIn last night's \"exclusvie interview\" on Hannity & Colmes, Bennett seemed to think that the problem with his remarks was that people thought he was saying black babies should be aborted. That seemed to be the issue he wanted to clairfy, not his connection with blacks and crime. He complained to Alan Colmes about his quote being taken out of context. \"When (\"morally reprehensible\") is included in the quote, (that) makes it perfectly clear what my position is.\" Without that phrase, Bennett said, it looked as though he supports such a \"monstrous idea.\"\nBennett either ignored or overlooked how people such as Congressman John Conyers felt when he stated in a letter to the Salem Radio Network, \"The fact that Mr. Bennett later acknowledged that such abortions would be \"morally reprehensible,\" but added again that if it was done \"the crime rate would go down,\" is equally outrageous.\"\nHannity also seemed to miss that point. With his most sincere face and tapping his hand on his heart (which one of our readers has said is a \"tell\"), Hannity's main defense of Bennett was to attack others who attacked him. \"This notion as being alleged by prominent Democrats that Bill Bennett has any racist bone in his body is appalling to me.\"\nFrom there, Hannity launched his usual onslaught against Robert Byrd, for being in the KKK a lifetime ago, and against Charles Rangel, for his Bull Connor remark of a few days ago. Bennett assailed Ted Kennedy for Chappaquidick, saying he should make no moral judgments against anyone. Comment: What did any of that have to do with Bennett's comments? Nothing.\nIn fact, Bennett seemed to affirm his statement that more blacks mean more crime.\"When I was drug czar, you bet we were working on the issue of black crime, Alan and Sean. Because there was a lot of crime in the black community.\"\nLater, he pointed to his wife's record as an anti-abortionist as proof of his own racial sensitivity. \"When it comes to abortion, my wife's program, Best Friends, has kept more young women from having abortions... than the entire Black Caucus. She has done more for inner city black girls than the entire Black Caucus. So I will not bow my head to any of these people. I will not give up the ground of compassion and sympathy.\"\nBennett claimed that the connection between abortion and lower crime rates came from the book Freakonomics. But Media Matters reports that the book \"did not put forth Bennett's race-based argument.\" Alan Colmes tried to address Bennett's connection between race and crime but Bennett did not respond. Instead, he attacked Colmes for being \"all over me\" on his own radio show the night before. Bennett said, \"I've had a thousand opportunities when people have said to me, 'What about that Alan Colmes? Isn't he a jerk? Is he a liberal this?' I've always said, 'He's always a gentleman, he's always nice to me.'\" Comment: Gee, what a pal!\nProps to Colmes for not backing down. He said, repeatedly, that he and his callers were \"shocked\" by Bennett's remarks.\nBennett clung to the notion that it was all a misunderstanding and he expressed no remorse for what he said. If anyone was offended, in his view, it was either because they didn't get the full context or because they were too partisan or immoral, themselves, for him to care about. But in his refusal to acknowledge or maybe even see for himself the full context of the offense, he proved that the misapprehension belonged to him.\nCategories: Ellen Elaborates, Hannity & Colmes, Racial Issues\nPrevious Entry: Neil Cavuto Equates Wearing a Flag Pin to Being a \"Pretty Good American\", reported by Melanie\nNext Entry: Is This A Spoof?

        "raw_content": "O'Reilly: Supreme Court decision \"huge loss for far left\"\nBill O'Reilly insisted on framing today's Supreme Court ruling that Law schools across the country have to allow military recruiters onto their campuses as a \"huge loss for the far left\" .\nThe hyperbole continued throughout, with O'Reilly saying \"they got their butt kicked\" and \"the far left gets a licking, and that's good,...\"\nMegyn Kendall, herself a lawyer , reported on the case. She laid it out fairly well and explained both the basis for the suit and the ruling. O'Reilly made sure to coax from her that in addition to 36 law shools across the country, virtually all the major schools, the evil ACLU was involved, filing an amicus brief in support of FAIR (Forum for Academic and Institutional Rights), who filed the suit.\nComment: O'Reilly misrepresented the case and the issue. In his zeal to again link the \"far left\" with \"anti-military\" for his viewers he missed a golden opportunity to portray them as pro-gay rights! That was the crux of the matter, an objection to hosting career booths on campus for an organization, the military, that blatantly discriminates against gays and lesbians.\nAs someone who has been called \"off the charts left\" by the big BORe I must say this ruling neither surprised nor fazed me. If he wasn't so far to the right, maybe he'd have a little better perspective.\nCategories: Chrish's Comments, Culture War, O'Reilly Factor, Supreme Court\nPrevious Entry: O'Reilly: Bush invaded Iraq to create friendly country, reported by Chrish\nNext Entry: Hannity Spews Lie After Lie on Dayside, reported by Janie",

        "raw_content": "Adrian Peterson serious about hitting 2,500-yard mark\nImmediately after the 2012 season, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson made one of those statements that would sound like a throwaway comment from anyone else. After coming nine yards short of breaking the NFL single-season rushing record, Peterson told NFL Network that he wanted to rush for 2,500 yards in 2013.\nFour months later, Peterson still sounds serious about it; he's listing it as a goal.\n\"It's not something I'm going to focus on early. I'll let the chips fall where they may. I've got my bar set for 2,500 yards,\" Peterson told SI.com recently. \"If I can go over that, the record will be shattered. But ultimately I want a couple rings. You gotta start at one.\"\nWe still have major questions about the Vikings' passing attack between quarterback Christian Ponder and the receiver crew led by new pickups Greg Jennings and Cordarrelle Patterson. But the Vikings' defense has potential to be special. There is a lot of pass-rush talent, especially after adding first-round defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd. The secondary also is more talented than you might think. It can be a dangerous group top to bottom.\n\"I feel like we have the potential to get to the Super Bowl and win,\" Peterson said. \"It's all about coming together as a unit.\"\nJust making the playoffs again would be a big accomplishment for the Vikings. They have a very difficult schedule and will need Peterson to be extraordinary again unless Ponder makes huge strides.",

        "raw_content": "A first-generation-American-Jew, born in 1961 to a South African father and French mother, Nicole lived in and around New York City until 1980.\nShe studied Philosophy and Psychology at Hampshire College in Massachusetts, until she accidentally moved to San Francisco for 9 years while on a 2-week vacation.\nAt San Francisco State University, Nicole finished her BA in \u201cDesign & Industry\u201d (summa cum laude) with a minor in \u201cCommunity Arts\u201d in 1985. There she began her career in public art and Creative Placemaking construction for Artists\u2019 Live/Work spaces.\nNicole has created 20 large-scale murals and 2 large-scale public sculptures; her paintings and drawings are in numerous corporate and private collections in New York, California, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kansas and Missouri.\nAfter turning 30 in 1992, Nicole took her first art class at the Kansas City Art Institute KCAI. There she received the Gold Scholarship and Summer Scholarships to the Chicago Art Institute and Vermont Studio School. Nicole received her BFA in Painting as KCAI\u2019s 1996 Valedictorian.\nIn 2001 & 2004 (never to take the easy route), after the age of 40, Nicole (with husband Luke McGlynn) had two children \u2014 her greatest creative works-of-art . Things were quiet in the studio for a while.\nIn 2008, the murder of their nephew Brendan Scanlon, shook Nicole back into public art. In response \u2014 as an antidote to anger and grief \u2013 Nicole created a tri-state \u201cSorry for the Miscommunication: Museum of the Streets\u201d series-of-events. It included street artists and gallery artists from Chicago, Kansas City and Madison cooperating in a collaborative mural, performances and exhibitions, supported by an ArtsKC Inspiration Grant.\nAnother murder, of her great-grandfather, pushed Nicole to pursue her Masters Degree at UMKC to write about her family. Her manuscript-in-progress, titled \u201cMemoraphilia: a granddaughter\u2019s memoir, the life of Jewish artist and storyteller Liouba Golschmann,\u201d won a 2009 UMKC Women\u2019s Council\u2019s grant and 2009 Hadassah\u2013Brandeis Institute Research Award.\nHer forthcoming book centers upon Nicole\u2019s grandmother, Liouba, who survived WWI in Latvia; saved her brother Philippe Halsman from the infamous 1928-30 patricide trial persecution in Austria; orchestrated their 1940s escape from the Nazis; and managed Philippe\u2019s career in New York City as he rose to international fame in photography. The Halsman images depict and have become icons of the 20th century. Philippe, Nicole\u2019s great uncle, collaborated with Salvador Dali, Jean Cocteau and other ground-breaking visionaries.\nNicole\u2019s other great-uncle, Vladimir Golschmann, conducted the St. Louis Symphony from 1931-1958 and sponsored the family in their petition to escape from the Holocaust and immigrate to the US. Vladimir was a life-long friend of Picasso, Isaac Stern and other artistic luminaries.\nThe art and music of Nicole\u2019s family greatly influenced her becoming an artist.\nIn 2011, Nicole developed InterUrban ArtHouse (IUAH), her current obsession. IUAH is a Non- Profit organization dedicating to purchase and renovate an under-utilized industrial building into affordable, stable art studios, community exhibition/event space and sculpture garden with some of the area\u2019s preeminent artists and craftspeople. IUAH won one-of-four \u2018Our Town Grants\u2019 given by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to national pilots in the field of Creative Placemaking.\nAs a part of this work, through Shawnee Mission School District in Kansas, Nicole is in her sixth year running a local Artsmart/ Cultural Arts Program to hire environmentally-minded, multi-cultural artists to do hands-on programming in public schools. IUAH will Pilot these successes for other schools.\nOccasionally, Nicole has time for a complete thought;\nshe does not do windows.\nOtherwise she paints.",

        "raw_content": "I knew little about Hadley Richardson, Ernest Hemingway\u2019s first wife, before I picked up Paula McLain\u2019s The Paris Wife. I\u2019d seen only a few black and white photos of her in Boris Vejdovsky\u2019s Hemingway: A Life in Pictures and a library copy of the Biography Channel\u2019s episode on Hemingway. I haven\u2019t even read A Moveable Feast, Hemingway\u2019s portrait of his life in Paris with Hadley, which has been on my to-read list since high school when I saw it quoted in that terrible romantic tragedy, City of Angels.\nIn her first work of historical fiction, Paula McLain gets inside the head of Hadley, the 28-year-old who captures the attention of a much younger Ernest Hemingway in 1920s Chicago. The pair begins an affair that intensifies through letters after Hadley\u2019s trip to Chicago comes to an end. It\u2019s in one of these letters that Ernest proposes, and before long, the couple finds themselves on a journey to Paris. As Hadley waits for each letter to arrive, I found myself waiting, too, captivated by McLain\u2019s ability to capture the young Hemingway\u2019s charm. Though most of Hemingway\u2019s letters to Hadley haven\u2019t survived, Hemingway kept each of the hundreds of letters she sent him, which helped McLain to illustrate the couple\u2019s chemistry in The Paris Wife.\nMost of The Paris Wife is written in Hadley\u2019s voice, though a few passages are seen through the eyes of Ernest. At times, I wanted to shake the naive Hadley awake, frustrated as she stands by Ernest's side, even when he's pining for the nurse he fell in love with during World War I and when he begins to show signs that he's the womanizing brute known to history.\nI read a lot of fiction and a lot of books about history, but The Paris Wife was my first exploration of historical fiction, at least since I was devouring books about witch hunts and the Underground Railroad for middle school book reports. Because I'm such a lover of history, I'm always skeptical of authors giving voice to real people who can no longer speak for themselves; however, I walked away from The Paris Wife with a new-found appreciation of the genre. Though McLain's Hadley was often sickly sweet, she was endearing, and without The Paris Wife her story may have mostly been told through scattered black and white photographs and the odd footnote in biographies about Ernest Hemingway.\nLabels: Paul McLain, The Paris Wife\nI need to add this book to my reading list.\nMarlene Detierro 24 August 2013 at 21:01\nOh am very excited- especially as I think I have seen a copy in my local bookshop in Istanbul and therefore won't have to read on the kindle :)\nMarlene Detierro (Fishing Lodge Alaska)\nCath Brookes 4 November 2014 at 05:23\nParis with the beginnings of the Hemingway legacy is exciting and revealing. The artistic enclave we have read about is revealed and does not disappoint. It was wonderful to meet Hadley and her young Ernest. Not to be missed.\nPanda Friendly One Way Links visit site",

        "title": "Africa\u2019s Flooding Cities: Urbanization and the Economics of the Underground - NYU Africa House",
        "raw_content": "From a low base, Africa is today the most rapidly urbanizing region in the world. This article discusses the dilemmas faced by African policymakers as they confront the economically and politically destabilizing process of urbanization, focusing on the emblematic case of flooding in Africa\u2019s cities. As elsewhere in the world, urbanization has led to the rapid development of modern and prestigious structures above ground, in response to the transport, housing and business needs of the expanding populations. Viewed from above, African cities are visibly richer and more modern than a few decades ago. However, policy concern for the development of robust structures for sewage, water management and flood control has been less obvious. It would seem that \u201cout of sight\u201d has also meant \u201cout of mind.\u201d\nFlooding Cities\nIn the past decade, floods have become ubiquitous features of Africa\u2019s burgeoning cities. Cities are afflicted by the onslaught of flash floods, the informality of water, sanitation and sewage systems, and poor planning, including inadequate budgetary outlays to address them. The list of affected cities is too long to present in full here, but includes Abidjan, Accra, Dar es Salaam, Durban, Kampala, Lagos, Maputo, Nairobi, and Tunis. The challenge runs across the whole continent.\nAfrican newspapers are awash with stories of the havoc that a few hours of heavy rain inflict on transport systems in the central business districts and businesses on the periphery. Occasionally, they document government plans to confront the problem, but which are seldom implemented. No parts of the cities are spared from the effects of the incessant floods. Houses of parliament, in once exclusive parts of the cities are inundated, while sophisticated neighborhoods, including the diplomatic quarters on higher ground, are also affected, if by proxy. Floods wash away access roads to residences, as well as official and private vehicles, while sewage and other effluents are left exposed on the streets. Water sources are affected in most parts of the cities and the burden of waterborne diseases has risen markedly. Floods have a perverse equalizing tendency in that they bring economic life to a stop for all urban dwellers.\nBut the socio-economic impacts on the marginalized households and groups who find subsistence in the informal sector are often devastating. In the slums and at the fringes of the cities, floods tear away at the rude structures, the deluge carrying away beds, pans, pets, dwellings and sources of livelihood alike. Children swim with abandon in the brown lakes and gushing rivulets in their destroyed neighborhoods. Therefore, while it is broadly acknowledged that cities and urban areas will provide the socio-economic and technological backbone for Africa\u2019s transformation, the pervasive floods and their impacts on feeble and ill-prepared plans and structures indicate that there are still serious gaps in the continent\u2019s urbanization strategy. They must be addressed if the continent\u2019s ambitious development plans such as those in Africa 2063 are to be realized.\nWriting about his beloved America, but from a Parisian exile, James Baldwin had entitled one of his books \u201cFire Next Time\u201d drawing on an old spiritual from the African American community. The people, the spiritual went, had received adequate warning. God had sent floods and even locusts, which had destroyed crops and livelihoods, but they had not \u201clistened\u201d and failed to mend their ways. The song indicates that the only option left was to raise the severity of punishment. In the absence of discernible change in behavior, \u201cfire\u201d would be used as the last resort. In similar fashion, it is difficult to see how African cities would continue to prosper without changing their ways. They must stop focusing on vertical infrastructure and begin to pay serious attention to the economics of the underground\u2014water, sewage and flash flood management systems\u2014which are crucial for urban sustainability. As part of the \u201cfire next time\u201d, many African cities have seen a sharp increase in malaria infections, owing to the greater breeding opportunities for the parasites enabled by stagnant water in urban areas during the rainy season. The eruption of cholera epidemics is a constant danger.\nEconomics of the Underground\nAfrica\u2019s capital cities were relatively small colonial outposts in the 1960s, in otherwise rural settings. By the 2000s they had transformed into megacities with millions of residents, but infrastructure provision has not coped. In spite of the explosion of construction work in African cities, in terms of roads, metro rail systems, bridges and new housing projects, there is less emphasis on water supply, and related underground infrastructures, including drainage, sewerage and sanitation systems.\nIn many cities, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, the urban populations have responded to the paucity of public infrastructure by devising coping mechanisms to meet their water and sewage service needs. These have included informal connections to water and sewage lines, use of plastic bags to dispose of human waste, and constructing makeshift sewage tanks. In the absence of good planning frameworks, such short-term private solutions tend to become the norm. Ultimately, they make the return to well-organized and well-funded infrastructure systems harder, not easier. Notably, the plastic bags mentioned above have blocked drainage systems and poisoned drinking water sources in many cities.\nA key contribution of the African development debates of the 1960s was the importance of governments in the provision of public goods. The period of structural adjustment of the 1980s and 1990s distorted this view to some extent, but there seems to be a return in recent years to the cardinal role of governments as enablers in economic development. Notably, that governments need to take action and lead in policy formulation \u2013 that important issues, such as underground infrastructure development cannot be done on scale by the private sector alone. Moreover, gaps in service provision should not be left to fester as corrective measures in the future could be both difficult and costly.\nHowever, the situation is not without hope and the progress made in recent years in cities like Abidjan, Addis Ababa, Lagos and Nairobi, with regard to infrastructure development, indicates that with focus and commitment much can be achieved. Recently, the planning authorities of Kampala, the Ugandan capital, announced a plan to banish flooding in all its districts, notably the low-lying areas, within three years. The news was as exciting as it was unbelievable. The flooding problems in African cities are deep-seated; this is a result of accumulated policy neglect, few resources, poor planning and inadequate sensitization of the populations. Stroke of the pen policies and standalone projects, of whatever size, might not be enough. Urban planning must become a serious concern, part and parcel of planning at the national level, with dedicated and well-resourced urban planning units. Moreover, policy research and technical analyses within government and at tertiary levels will be required to study the many contributing factors, including population pressure, climate change, degradation of catchment areas, the regulatory environment and its enforcement structures and urban tenure systems. It is also an area where learning from the experiences of other countries will be crucial. Governments will do well to give as much emphasis to underground infrastructure in urban areas as they are giving to above ground infrastructure today.\nSteve Kayizzi-Mugerwa received his Ph.D. in Economics from Gothenburg University in Sweden in 1988 and became Associate Professor at the same university in 1994. He worked as a Senior Economist at the IMF in Washington, D.C., Project Director and Fellow at the World Institute for Development Economics Research (WIDER) of the United Nations University, Helsinki, and most recently as Director of Strategy, Director of Operations and Director of Research,respectively, at the African Development Bank (AfDB) in Tunis and Abidjan. His last post at the AfDB, which he left at the end of 2015, was Acting Chief Economist and Vice President. He has collaborated with many international and national institutions and has been an external examiner of doctoral students in Africa and in European countries.He has been a consultant for the Swedish International development agency, the World Bank, the OECD and the UNDP. He considers the policy dialogue which he undertook with government leaders from across Africa, during his years at the AfDB, as the height of his career, and is planning to write a book about these experiences.\nTagged with Africa House Visiting Scholar, Economics, Flooding, Infrastructure, Planning, Steve Kayizzi-Mugerwa, Urban Planning, Urbanization\nJolrean\nHi sir, can I know more of the details of it?\nI\u2019ll be using it in a scholarly article.\nSteve Kayizzi-Mugerwa\tAuthor\nYes.

        "raw_content": "Learn to Swim\u200e > \u200e\nWe have taken countless adults who could not swim and, over the course of a few months, not only taught them to swim but to swim for a long time. The Start Smart Swim Method was developed by our Head Coach Geordie McConnell. After a number of years of coaching and studying under other acclaimed coaches, Geordie decided to set aside traditional thinking and develop a new teaching progression for those looking to build or reconstruct their stroke. It is based on the real world behaviours that he saw as the reality of adult swimmers. The most important of those elements is:\nIf you are learning to ride a bike and your body is rigid with fear and tension, you won't be able to make the micro-adjustments to counter balance and stay upright. The same goes in the pool but we say it more succinctly: tense muscles turn to cement!\nThe Start Smart Swim Method utilizes a patient, fun and social approach to develop relaxation first then slowly build the front crawl stroke element by element. It's sort of like the Karate Kid and the 'wax on, wax off' philosophy. Once the stroke is built, we slowly add volume and intensity to suit each individual swimmer. Then, as the season move on, we continue to challenge our swimmers to develop additional skills, physical and mental, that allow them to tackle the ultimate challenge: open water swimming. That step is certainly optional but we know you can do it!\nVisit our Pool Swims page and look for the Saturday morning session with Coach Geordie.\nThe program opens for registration in June with the lessons running from early October through mid-June.\nAbout Neuro-Plasticity\nThe brain is a miraculous and ever-evolving organ. The movement patterns and mental skills we teach work to rewire your brain so it operates in a different manner enabling you to swim in a relaxed and efficient manner. The mental strength, confidence and understanding that comes from such learning can be applied to countless areas in our life. Scientists at the University of Ottawa's Brain and Mind Institute are at the forefront in studying this field, helping treat such diverse conditions as Parkinson's Disease, stroke and depression. Learn to train your brain and break down the barriers in your life.",

        "raw_content": "Home/General, Service Design/Serving you an introduction to service design\nImage source: B2Bstories\nAbout two months ago while I was in Namibia for one of the PACO projects, J\u00falia, our blog editor, wrote me an email saying: \u201cHey Nicola why don\u2019t you write a post about Service Design for mid September\u201d and I replied \u201cSure \u2026\u201d thinking that in two months I would have certainly found the time to write the post but such are our schedules that here I am, just four days before the deadline, starting to write my post. Sometimes I think that we should apply the principle of Service Design to our own lives. But what is Service Design? I could cite the definition of Wikipedia which is quite good or one of the many others available but, you know, these definitions fit when you are in the field, if you come from another area they tend to sound hazy, you see the smoke but not the chicken, so I prefer to take a more inductive approach.\nLet\u2019s say it\u2019s time for dinner and you are with your girlfriend in a new city looking for a good, cozy restaurant where you don\u2019t spend all your money for the week. You open Tripadvisor on your phone, set the filters et voil\u00e1 you have a list of restaurants with stars, pictures and distance from your current location. After reading some comments by previous customers, you call and book a table on what looks like the best choice. You call a taxi to get there and during the ride you and your girlfriend check the menu on the restaurant website. At the entrance, a waiter checks your reservation and guides you to your table. In the kitchen, the chef and his assistants are busy cutting and cooking using the ingredients they collected from the suppliers that morning. Inside the office, the manager is checking the bills and thinking on how to attract more customers at lunch from the offices in the neighborhood. The community manager hired from a web agency is out with his friends but tomorrow morning he will present the manager the newsletter for the new autumn campaign. Stop!\nLet\u2019s stop this short plot and see who\u2019s on the scene. \u2018Till now we have: you and your girlfriend, the waiter, the chef and his assistants, the suppliers, the manager, the community manager, the web agency and \u2026 the taxi driver and his company, I didn\u2019t explicitly mention them but they also play a role, so as good service designers we should consider them too. In service design these are called stakeholders or actors, these are the people and the organizations involved. We also have: Tripadvisor, the taxi, the restaurant website, the restaurant, the newsletter and \u2026 the market where the food is bought. These are called touchpoints, the different places, physical or digital, where you or one of the other actors interact directly with the service or other points that are part of the larger experience of going to, eating at and managing a restaurant.\nThe role of service design is to orchestrate the actors and the touchpoints to optimize the experience of both, customers and the people providing the service, while pursuing the goals of the business. So, if the manager of the restaurant works with a good service designer, you and your girlfriend will write an excellent review on TripAdvisor, the waiters will finish their shift tired but satisfied, and the manager will succeed in getting more customers at lunch.\nThe role of service design is to orchestrate the actors and the touchpoints to optimize the experience of both, customers and the people providing the service, while pursuing the goals of the business.\nService Design and other disciplines\nIf you\u2019re reading this article chances are that you\u2019re working in the field of marketing, user experience or information architecture, or maybe you\u2019re the CEO of your company. Hence some of the concepts are already familiar to you and you wonder what differentiates service design from the other disciplines. In extreme synthesis we can say the difference is in the \u201cand\u201d and \u201cwhile\u201d in italic a few lines above. But let\u2019s take a closer look.\nMarketing is very focused on selling more, it is also interested in making the customers happy but a lot of times it goes through dark paths to create that fleeting smile. Marketing is almost never interested in improving the experience of people working at the backend while these people are so important to improve the quality of the service and find new insight for innovation. That\u2019s why service design involves them from the beginning and during the whole process. Another difference with marketing is the kind of research. Marketing relies mainly on quantitative research, like average income, education title, gender and so on, or making interviews with closed questions where people can only choose between a predefined set of answers. Service design instead uses more qualitative research tools; the number of people interviewed is very limited, in the order of tenths rather than hundreds or thousands, but the questions are open to let people express themselves, to understand the root reasons of their choices and behavior. To better understand them, customers, employees and the other actors are interviewed in their own context or while interacting with the service. This approach proved to be not only less expensive but, more importantly, the source of insights for real disruptive innovation, the kind of innovation that creates a big, long lasting advantage. Despite these differences marketing and service design have a lot of points in common and should certainly work together.\nAs well as marketing, user experience tends to be more focused on some aspects, lacking a view of the whole picture. While some user experience designers are widening their views, UX is essentially about the digital experience, so it takes into consideration the touchpoints where people interact with the service through an electronic device but doesn\u2019t design the other non digital interactions and doesn\u2019t consider the role of people delivering the service behind the scenes. Anyways, such as marketing, there\u2019s a lot in common between ux and service design, especially in a sincere attention to users and preferring a qualitative approach to research.\nInformation architecture has a lot in common with user experience, therefore the reasoning is the same, but as the word \u201carchitecture\u201d implies, it has a more systemic approach that brings it a bit closer to service design. In Italy, where I live, the two communities of information architects and service designers are very close, with many, me included, moving from one field to the other.\nI would like now to write about the tools and how service design could help your organization but J\u00falia is knocking on my mailbox so these would be the topics for the next post. But if you can\u2019t wait, you could read how Philips helped a hospital to cut care costs by 27% and increase patients\u2019 satisfaction by applying service design. In the meantime, I leave you with this short and explicative video about the service design process.\nAuthor: Nicola De Franceschi",

        "raw_content": "An article appeared in this Saturday\u2019s Post by author John Steele Gordon trying to dispel some \u201cmyths\u201d about millionaires. Not a lot new here\u2014anyone who\u2019s anywhere close to calling themselves a millionaire has no illusions about how \u201crich\u201d they are, at least relative to the truly wealthy. The piece made some good points\u2014regardless of Warren Buffet\u2019s claims the less well off don\u2019t actually pay more tax than those who live off of investment income. However, its claim that half of Americans don\u2019t make enough money to pay income tax at all is misleading. All of us contribute \u201cpayroll taxes\u201d, which look and smell a lot like income tax, especially when you are an independent contractor like myself and have to pay the entire 18 percent tax. It also doesn\u2019t mean the poor don\u2019t pay state, local, sales, and all the other myriad taxes imposed on people living in this country. A Washington Post study found that the poorest among us pay around 16 percent in total taxes, the richest around 31 percent. Why don\u2019t we start with that as a baseline for a serious discussion and dump the spin and weasel words.\nHis point about how taxing millionaires will limit investment was also misleading. Sure, taxes impact investment decisions, but as the 1990s demonstrated, tax rates that can sustain government policies we apparently want to keep do not kill our desire to invest. Quite the opposite. And his assertion that the tax cuts of the 2000s were responsible for the increase in tax revenues and decrease in employment is nonsense. The Bush era was a party fueled by low interest rates and deceptively increasing property values, which made people feel rich and spend more than they should. People over borrowed and the economy grew, at least until we were tapped out. The flip side of all that illusory wealth was an increase in property taxes (in my case a tripling), which more than canceled out the benefits of the Bush tax cuts for most of us. It was a time of recklessness and stupidity, and we are all going to have to pay to clean it up, including the wealthiest among us.\nAuthor responds:\nIf FDR had set up Social Security as a retirement program, with the money paid in going into a separate account that the individual owned, payroll taxes would not be \u201ctaxes,\u201d they would be \u201cmandatory deposits\u201d or some such.\nUnfortunately, politics\u2014and economic reality if anyone was to receive significant benefits from Social Security in a politically useful time-frame\u2014led him to set up a system with the illusion of individual accounts without the reality.\nFurther more, if surplus funds received by the Social Security were invested in federal bonds bought in the market place instead of the money going to the Treasury, which issues special federal bonds for it, Congress could not have gotten its hands on the money and used it as if it were tax money. If a corporation took the employee contributions to the company pension fund, replaced it with corporate bonds, and called the money \u201cincome,\u201d the execs would all be washing each other\u2019s laundry in Club Fed. It\u2019s an accounting scandal that makes Enron look like petty theft.\nI would disagree with your analysis of the Bush years. The revenue increases and falling unemployment coincided nearly exactly with the implementation of the tax cuts. The party you mention was already underway at that point, courtesy of Alan Greenspan and Fannie and Freddie.",

He recorded 84 tackles (18.5 for loss) and 14 sacks during the regular season.\nAllen has already brought home a number of postseason awards. He was named SEC Defensive Player of the Year and took home the Bronko Nagurski Trophy for the nation\u2019s best defensive player. Now, he\u2019s the first player in Kentucky history to capture the Bednarik, an award that dates back to 1995.\nAllen is widely expected to be a top-10 NFL draft pick. In his most recent mock draft, Bleacher Report\u2019s Matt Miller projected him to go third overall to the New York Jets:\n\u201cJosh Allen has been the most dominant defensive player in the SEC this season, notching 18.5 tackles for a loss and 14 sacks. For the Jets, with a massive need at pass-rusher, Allen is both a need and a fit.\n\u201cAt 6\u20195\u2033 and 260 pounds, Allen can play in any defensive scheme. That means whomever is coaching the Jets next season will be comfortable plugging him in as a Chandler Jones-like prospect off the edge.\u201d\nWilkins recorded 46 tackles (12.5 for loss) and 4.5 sacks during the 2018 season. He was previously named the Campbell Award winner, colloquially known as the \u201cAcademic Heisman.\u201d\nWilliams was a borderline out-of-nowhere sensation for the Tide in 2018. After redshirting in 2016 and barely seeing the field during his freshman season, Williams became the most dominant defensive lineman in college football in 2018.

        "title": "Perpetual Nostalghia: Lionheart's Greatest Performance",
        "raw_content": "Surprisingly, Theater of Blood deals with these issues. It concerns an actor named Lionheart who was the bane of critics\u2019 existence. They just didn't like him for one reason or another. Some thought he overacted, some thought he underacted. Pretty much, Lionheart was in a perpetual Catch-22 where he was critically panned no matter what he did.\nLionheart decides to take his frustrations out on the critics themselves by echoing his final string of performances and murdering his in-print enemies in the vein of Shakespearean plays. So, yes, there's a ton of violence in this movie as you'd expect. The blood is bright red and Price is delightfully evil as we have come to expect. But, the thing that is most striking about this film is the sympathy you feel for Lionheart. Some critics at the time considered Price too sympathetic in his portrayal of this serial killer.\nThe life of an actor is typically not an easy one. They are constantly under scrutiny and, because they have to work with their emotions, the way they feel is always close to the surface. You have to dig deep in order to act to make things seem realistic. Same thing with writing and art. If someone critiques what you do, it almost feels like a slight against you.\nThroughout the movie, Lionheart executes these critics, and you feel he's justified in his actions. Granted, yeah, the man is insane. He cooks a couple of poodles into pies and then feeds them to their owner. But, he\u2019s driven to madness by a gaggle of bullies that are paid to be snarky.\nLet's, for a moment, assume that this was taking place in the present. I don't think that Lionheart would stand a chance. He's an emotional guy. With the way that online critics are nowadays, he would have killed himself a long time ago. Or at least attempted to and then come back to kill all the critics. But, it begs the question: why? Why have all critics become huge dicks as opposed to legitimate criticism?\nThe answer is simple: it sells.\nTake for example The Fashion Police on E! I don't watch E! all that often, probably because they have an exclamation point directly in their cable call sign. The Fashion Police show is there to ridicule people that have spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on dresses. How have we come to this? Why do we watch these sycophantic assholes on TV insult other people?\nReally, though, a lot of critics have not strayed from their critical standings. Granted, Roger Ebert wrote a screenplay for what could be considered a B-movie and Rod Lurie used to be a critic and then turned into a rather decent director. But what makes these people qualified to understand what the actors go through? Lionheart poses that question to one of the critics in the film, and, not too surprisingly, he does not have an answer for him.\nAs a society, we have become like these critics: just a bunch of bullies. It could stem from jealousy, but what it boils down to is that these people who speak about film nowadays are comfortable hiding behind their computer screens in their mother's basements. We have seen what bullying can do to people under stress, just look at the number of school shootings in the past decade and a half for evidence of that.\nTheater of Blood throws a mirror up to the bullshit that comes with being an actor. They have to deal with a lot of things from a lot of people. I'm sure there are people that are out there reading this now thinking that it comes with the territory or it's an occupational hazard for an actor, not unlike black lung for a coal miner. But, if we can somehow curtail this harassment, why shouldn't we?\nIn the end, I think we're all a little bit like Lionheart. I believe that he was bullied and retaliated in the only way that he knew how. He is a sad, sympathetic character in this film and I believe there is a lot of Price in him. He was always striving for something different, but could never get out of the cycle. Critics were holding him back.\nPrice will always be remembered for his horror films, but the reason he endures is because of his incomparable skills as an actor, and I submit Theater of Blood as evidence.\nLabels: Acting, Adam Sweeney, horror, Issue 1, Shakespeare, Theater of Blood, Vincent Price",

Each Workshop offers two credits from Penn State's Graduate School. They are held at the University Park campus in State College, PA, which lies at the center of Pennsylvania. The Workshops are offered by Penn State's Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Space Grant Consortium.\nThe Workshops provide a multifaceted experience in modern astronomy. They combine lectures on astronomical topics, discussions on their presentation in the classroom, examination of multimedia curricular materials (texts, animations, simulations, software), hands-on classroom laboratory experiments with inexpensive equipment, nighttime observing and use of a planetarium, and other inquiry-based activities. While one central instructor will guide the Workshop, guest presentations by other faculty, research astronomers, science education faculty, and secondary school Master Teachers are also included. The Workshops are very intensive, requiring a full-time commitment for 5 days (and even some nights).\nEric Feigelson\nProfessor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State, inaugurated the program and is a past lead instructor for the Space Astronomy and Stars & Planets workshops. He is a leader in undergraduate science education at Penn State, and has research interests in X-ray astronomy, star formation and astrostatistics.\nNiel Brandt\nDistinguished Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State, will be the principal instructor for the Black Holes course. Winner of the prestigious Sloan Fellowship and NSF Career Development grants for research, he studies black holes at the center of quasars and other galaxies at X-ray wavelengths. Niel is committed to educational outreach and also is the past administrator for the PJAS Astronomy awards.\nChristopher Palma\nSenior Lecturer of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State, he also served recently as the Associate Director of Outreach in the Eberly College of Science. He has been the lead instructor for several workshops in past summers. His teaching interests include informal science education for K-12 students. His research interests include the study of globular clusters, dwarf galaxies, and stellar populations.\nKevin Luhman\nAssistant Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State, has been a co-instructor for several previous workshops. He studies the formation of stars, brown dwarfs, and planets through optical and infrared observations with ground- and space-based telescopes.\nGlenn Goldsborough\nPhysics and Astronomy Teacher at Pennsbury High School, is an alumnus of past workshops and has spent several years as a co-instructor for several different workshops.\nPhD Candidate in Science Education and Bachelor\u2019s in Astronomy & Astrophysics from Penn State.\nPSIWA /",

Economically, this is very important for the casino, not only in terms of profits but also in the form of reduced risk. Online Baccarat Games revenue fluctuates dramatically because it depends on whether a handful of high rollers or the casino is luckiest in a given month. It is for this reason that Wall Street analysts do not consider Online Baccarat Games when assessing economic trends on the Las Vegas Strip.\nOnline Baccarat Games is very serious business. In 1995, it was still making $595 million for the Las Vegas Strip, earning twice as much as online blackjack games per table, which is the much more popular games. Nevertheless, these impressive earnings will continue to decline year after year, creating even more volatility, unless remedial action is taken. The decline will be accelerated by the extent of the economic crisis in the Far East, which began at the end of 1997.\nWhat possible relevance could that have for Las Vegas? Well, the majority of high rollers, defined typically as an individual who bets $10,000 a hand, come from Pacific Rim countries. Jack Binion, casino owner extraordinaire, estimated that 90 percent of his Online Baccarat Games high rollers hailed from this region. At this time, it seems that these players may face dramatic reductions both in their numbers and in their disposable incomes as a result of the current Asian recession. Their problem will become a problem for Las Vegas, as well as for other areas which cater specifically to the high roller, such as London, unless the games is altered to become more populist, or a new type of high-stakes bettor emerges.",

        "title": "MIT News: Increasing Heat Coefficients on Industrial Plant Condensers Through Nanotechnology",
        "raw_content": "MIT News: Increasing Heat Coefficients on Industrial Plant Condensers Through Nanotechnology\nStudents at the Device Research Lab (DRL) in MIT\u2019s mechanical engineering department have designed and tested a coated surface of an industrial plant condenser with nanostructured patterns that greatly increase the heat-transfer coefficient.\nThe heat-transfer coefficient is important when it comes to condensers because it is a measure of how fast heat can be transferred away from it. Basically, it is the opposite of insulation where insulation is a measure of how long heat can be maintained.\nThe purpose of a condenser in an industrial plant, like a thermal power plant for example, is to condense water vapor back into steam for maximum efficiency and reuse the now transformed liquid water in the steam generator or boiler as boiler feed water. A condenser with a high heat-transfer coefficient would then be able to condense water vapor faster and more efficiently.\nNanostructures and its uses\nNanotechnology, specifically nanostructures, have been proven successful in creating materials or devices that perform in a particular way, usually increasing its efficiency in the process. Nanostructures are objects created at the nanoscale or atmolecular level. These are very tiny structures and creating a nanostructure involves manipulating an object's composition at a molecular level. It may involve moving molecules or atoms around, or creating patterns that will allow it to behave in a particular way.\nThese structures are made to either act as a container in a delivery system (like gas atom/molecule in a very tiny capsule), interact with other objects to achieve a predetermined outcome either structurally or chemically or to act as a base for a more complex structure.\nIn relation to the condenser created by MIT, the surface was coated with nanostructured patterns to influence the way water droplets behave on it (see embedded video below).\nNanostructure Coating to Increase Heat-Transfer Coefficient\nMany industrial plants depend on water vapor condensing on metal plates: In power plants, the resulting water is then returned to a boiler to be vaporized again; in desalination plants, it yields a supply of clean water. The efficiency of such plants depends crucially on how easily droplets of water can form on these metal plates, or condensers, and how easily they fall away, leaving room for more droplets to form.\nThe key to improving the efficiency of such plants is to increase the condensers\u2019 heat-transfer coefficient \u2014 a measure of how readily heat can be transferred away from those surfaces, explains Nenad Miljkovic, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering at MIT. As part of his thesis research, he and colleagues have done just that: designing, making and testing a coated surface with nanostructured patterns that greatly increase the heat-transfer coefficient.\nThe results of that work have been published in the journal Nano Letters, in a paper co-authored by Miljkovic, mechanical engineering associate professor Evelyn Wang, and five other researchers from the Device Research Lab (DRL) in MIT\u2019s mechanical engineering department.\nOn a typical, flat-plate condenser, water vapor condenses to form a liquid film on the surface, drastically reducing the condenser\u2019s ability to collect more water until gravity drains the film. \u201cIt acts as a barrier to heat transfer,\u201d Miljkovic says. He and other researchers have focused on ways of encouraging water to bead up into droplets that then fall away from the surface, allowing more rapid water removal.\n\u201cThe way to remove the thermal barrier is to remove [the droplets] as quickly as possible,\u201d he says. Many researchers have studied ways of doing this by creating hydrophobic surfaces, either through chemical treatment or through surface patterning. But Miljkovic and his colleagues have now taken this a step further by making scalable surfaces with nanoscale features that barely touch the droplets.\nThe result: Droplets don\u2019t just fall from the surface, but actually jump away from it, increasing the efficiency of the process. The energy released as tiny droplets merge to form larger ones is enough to propel the droplets upward from the surface, meaning the removal of droplets doesn\u2019t depend solely on gravity.\nOther researchers have worked on nanopatterned surfaces to induce such jumping, but these have tended to be complex and expensive to manufacture, usually requiring a clean-room environment. Those approaches also require flat surfaces, not the tubing or other shapes often used in condensers. Finally, prior research has not tested the enhanced heat transfer predicted for these types of surfaces.\nIn a paper published early in 2012, the MIT researchers showed that droplet shape is important to enhanced heat transfer. \u201cNow, we\u2019ve gone a step further,\u201d Miljkovic says, \u201cdeveloping a surface that favors these kinds of droplets, while being highly scalable and easy to manufacture. Furthermore, we\u2019ve actually been able to experimentally measure the heat-transfer enhancement.\u201d\nThe patterning is done, Miljkovic says, using a simple wet-oxidation process right on the surface that can be applied to the copper tubes and plates commonly used in commercial power plants.\nVideo: Jumping water droplets improves power-plant efficiency\nThe nanostructured pattern itself is made of copper oxide and actually forms on top of the copper tubing. The process produces a surface that resembles a bed of tiny, pointed leaves sticking up from the surface; these nanoscale points minimize contact between the droplets and the surface, making release easier.\nNot only can the nanostructured patterns be made and applied under room-temperature conditions, but the growth process naturally stops itself. \u201cIt\u2019s a self-limiting reaction,\u201d Miljkovic says, \u201cwhether you put it in [the treatment solution] for two minutes or two hours.\u201d\nAfter the leaflike pattern is created, a hydrophobic coating is applied when a vapor solution bonds itself to the patterned surface without significantly altering its shape. The team\u2019s experiments showed that the efficiency of heat transfer using these treated surfaces could be increased by 30 percent, compared to today\u2019s best hydrophobic condensing surfaces.\nThat means, Miljkovic says, that the process lends itself to retrofitting thousands of power plants already in operation around the world. The technology could also be useful for other processes where heat transfer is important, such as in dehumidifiers and for heating and cooling systems for buildings, the authors say.\nChallenges for this approach remain, Miljkovic says: If too many droplets form, they can \u201cflood\u201d the surface, reducing its heat-transfer ability. \u201cWe are working on delaying this surface flooding and creating more robust solutions that can work well [under] all operating conditions,\u201d he says.\nThe research team also included postdocs Ryan Enright and Youngsuk Nam and undergraduates Ken Lopez, Nicholas Dou and Jean Sack, all of MIT\u2019s mechanical engineering department. The work was supported by MIT\u2019s Solid-State Solar Thermal Energy Conversion Center, the U.S. Department of Energy, the National Science Foundation and the Irish Research Council for Science, Engineering and Technology.\nSolid-State Solar Thermal Energy Conversion Center\nThermodynamics Used To Grow Nanorods Into Superparticles With Precision\nHigh Tech Smart Surgical Gloves With Sensors and Circuits Through Nanotechnology\nNanobiodevice Captures Cancer Cells in Bloodstream\nResearch update: Jumping droplets help heat transfer\nLabels: condensers, heat, heat transfer coefficient, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, MIT, science, thermodynamics",

        "raw_content": "August said, \"Listen to me now, Lily. I'm going to tell you something I want you always to remember, all right?\"\nHer face had grown serious. Intent. Her eyes did not blink.\n\"All right,\" I said, and I felt something electric slide down my spine.\n\"Our Lady is not some magical being out there somewhere, like a fairy godmother. She's not the statue in the parlor. She's something inside of you. Do you understand what I'm telling you?\"\n\"Our Lady is inside me,\" I repeated, not sure I did.\n\"You have to find a mother inside yourself. We all do. Even if we already have a mother, we still have to find this part of ourselves inside.\"\nSet in the American South in 1964, the year of the Civil Rights Act and intensifying racial unrest, Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees is a powerful story of coming-of-age, of the ability of love to transform our lives, and the often unacknowledged longing for the universal feminine divine. Addressing the wounds of loss, betrayal, and the scarcity of love, Kidd demonstrates the power of women coming together to heal those wounds, to mother each other and themselves, and to create a sanctuary of true family and home.\nIsolated on a South Carolina peach farm with a neglectful and harsh father, fourteen-year-old Lily Owens has spent much of her life longing for her mother, Deborah, who died amid mysterious circumstances when Lily was four years old. To make matters worse, her father, T. Ray, tells Lily that she accidentally killed her mother.\nLily is raised by Rosaleen, her proud and outspoken African-American nanny. When Rosaleen attempts to exercise her newly won right to vote, she is attacked by the three worst racists in town and is thrown into jail. Lily is determined to save Rosaleen and finally escape her own father as well. Seizing the moment, she springs Rosaleen from jail, and the two set out across South Carolina in search of a new life.\nTheir destination is Tiburon, South Carolina\u0097a town they know nothing about except that in a box of Lily's mother's belongings there is a cryptic picture of a black Virgin Mary with the words \"Tiburon, South Carolina\" written on the back. There they are taken in by three black beekeeping sisters who worship the Black Madonna. It is here, surrounded by the strength of the Madonna, the hum of bees, and a circle of wise and colorful women, that Lily makes her passage to wholeness and a new life.\nCaptured by the voice of this Southern adolescent, one becomes enveloped in the hot South Carolina summer and one of most tumultuous times the country has ever seen. A story of mothers lost and found, love, conviction, and forgiveness, The Secret Life of Bees boldly explores life's wounds and reveals the deeper meaning of home and the redemptive simplicity of \"choosing what matters.\"\nIn the end, though she cannot find the mother she lost, Lily discovers and comes to terms with her mother's past, finds a hive of new mothers, and falls in love with the great universal mother.",

We do not recognise this as an accurate representation of the University\u2019s finances.\nThe University of Reading is in a sound position following changes to the UK higher education sector over the past decade, and has robust plans in place to deal with current and future challenges.\n\"We remain a respected institution with excellent teaching and research and the University is in a strong position to meet the future with confidence.\"\nNotes on the University's financial position:\nAt 31 July 2018 the University had c. \u00a3470m of net assets. This value has grown by 34% over the last five years.\nOur annual turnover is \u00a3318 million, which has grown by 42% over the past five years with strong growth in both teaching and research activities. We have not grown excessively, but we have significantly more students now (26%) than we did five years ago.\nOur surpluses generated (net) in the last five years total c. \u00a380m and every penny has been reinvested in the University.\nThe University has \u00a3188m of short and long term debt, a level comparable to many other Universities, and the cost of financing this has averaged 1.9% of our income. These funds, alongside the surplus generated, have been invested in a range of investment projects to benefit the University.\nWe have invested over \u00a3273m in our capital programme. The major individual projects have been the new Chancellor's building, a fully refurbished Library, the new Health & Life Sciences Building, and Thames Valley Science Park.\nNIRD and RET Trusts are part of the wider University Group, with the University as the sole Trustee. Their combined assets are \u00a3220m. Their objectives are to further research and teaching at the University so over time the Trusts will fund activity and projects at the University, as they have also done in recent years.",

(Getty Images \u2013 Sean M. Haffey)\nFive American men all packed into the World Cup points (top 30) in Saturday\u2019s snowy Xfinity Birds of Prey World Cup super-G race won by Austria\u2019s Max Franz, and EagleVail\u2019s Mikaela Shiffrin finished just off the podium in a women\u2019s World Cup downhill at Lake Louise, Canada.\nFirst, here\u2019s the U.S. Ski Team press release on the men\u2019s race:\nTravis Ganong (Squaw Valley, Calif.) led five of his teammates into the top 30, finishing 15th, in Saturday\u2019s Birds of Prey FIS Ski World Cup super-G. Ryan Cochran-Siegle (Starksboro, Vt.) was 17th; Steven Nyman (Squaw Valley, Calif.) was 20th; Ted Ligety (Park City, Utah) was 22nd; and Tommy Biesemeyer (Keene, N.Y) was 26th.\n\u201cToday I was ready to push a little harder, turn my brain off and just enjoyed it,\u201d said Ganong, who missed the 2018 Olympic Winter Games after suffering an ACL injury in Bormio, Italy, last season. \u201cI\u2019m getting to that point now where I\u2019ve had a couple races under my belt and I\u2019m starting to find that fire again, and just relax and enjoy it.\u201d\nMax Franz of Austria took the victory ahead of Switzerland\u2019s Mauro Caviezel in second and Norway\u2019s Aksel Lund Svindal, Italy\u2019s Dominik Paris and Norway\u2019s Aleksander Aamodt Kilde all tied for third.\nFor the second-straight day, weather forced race organizers to postpone the start time and to lower the start, which provided a short, fast course which saw five racers who started outside the top 30 finish in the top 15. However, the most impressive performance of the day belonged to Nyman, who started with bib 64 and finished 20th.\n\u201cThis course crew did a pretty phenomenal job for the conditions and the weather that came in,\u201d Cochran-Siegle said of the Talon Crew, who pulled an all-nighter clearing more than a foot of snow off the course.\nUp next, the men\u2019s will race giant slalom Sunday at Beaver Creek. The first run, set for 9:45 a.m. \u2014 free and open to the public \u2014 will be broadcast on the Olympic Channel and stream on NBC Sports Gold. The second run, scheduled for 2:45 p.m., will be broadcast live on NBC Sports Network and NBC Sports Gold.\nGo to the Vail Valley Foundation website for more information.\nNow here\u2019s the U.S. Ski Team press release on Shiffrin\u2019s near-podium finish at Lake Louise:\nShiffrin Further Extends World Cup Lead\nMikaela Shiffrin (Avon, Colo.) further extended her overall World Cup lead after finishing fourth in Saturday\u2019s FIS Ski World Cup downhill in Lake Louise, Alberta.\n\u201cI\u2019m pretty psyched with today,\u201d Shiffrin said after her run. \u201cYesterday I felt a little bit disconnected and not really attacking as much as I\u2019d like, but today I think it was a really big step in the right direction and I felt good on my skis, and felt like I made some really good turns so I\u2019m psyched with that.\u201d\nShiffrin led through the first three intervals but lost a bit of time on the lower section of the course to just miss the podium in only her eighth career downhill. With her fourth-place finish though, she extended her overall World Cup lead to 156 points over Austria\u2019s Nicole Schmidhofer, who won for the second straight day at Lake Louise. Austria\u2019s Cornelia Huetter was second, followed by Switzerland\u2019s Michelle Gisin, who posted her second-straight podium, finishing third Saturday.\nAlice Merryweather (Hingham, Mass.) scored World Cup points for the second straight day, finishing 24th.\nNow, Shiffrin will have to switch gears to super-G. \u201cI\u2019m going to try to go back and watch a little video from this summer when I was training super-G and switch gears and bring back my focus points from those training camps and see if I can bring that into tomorrow and attack a bit,\u201d Shiffrin said. \u201cI haven\u2019t had any super-G training for a while, so it\u2019s kind of, like, winging it a little bit.\u201d\nUp next, the women race super-G at Lake Louise, and will be broadcast live on the Olympic Channel and streamed on NBC Sports Gold.\n6:00 p.m. \u2013 World Cup men\u2019s super-G, Beaver Creek, Colo. \u2013 Olympic Channel*\n10:00 p.m. \u2013 World Cup women\u2019s downhill, Lake Louise, CAN \u2013 Olympic Channel*\n1:00 p.m. \u2013 World Cup men\u2019s giant slalom, run 1, Beaver Creek, Colo. \u2013 NBC Sports Gold & Olympic Channel\n1:00 p.m. \u2013 World Cup women\u2019s super-G, Lake Louise, CAN \u2013 NBC Sports Gold & Olympic Channel\n2:30 p.m. \u2013 World Cup men\u2019s giant slalom, run 2, Beaver Creek, Colo. \u2013 NBC Sports Gold & NBCSN\n5:00 p.m. \u2013 World Cup men\u2019s giant slalom recap, Beaver Creek, Colo. \u2013 NBC*\n6:30 p.m. \u2013 World Cup women\u2019s super-G recap, Lake Louise, CAN \u2013 NBCSN*\n11:30 p.m. \u2013 World Cup men\u2019s giant slalom, run 2, Beaver Creek, Colo. \u2013 Olympic Channel*",

        "raw_content": "\"Yarning\" May Not Be For Everyone\nThere were only a few moms who did not quite get the hang of crocheting at our MOMS Night Out on Friday. And only one of those who I don't think will try again. Even the two moms who just came to hang out (and drink) crocheted at least a little.\nOne mom just kept trucking along with her chaining, and is coming back Monday for more. She said she had a lot of fun, and even dreamed about crocheting all that night. But she really has no interest in learning another \"stitch\", and decided chains make really good bookmarks! I even gave her a charm to put on the end of it. Apparently her 6 year old stole the first one, so she HAS to make another.\nAnother mom kept saying in a very calm voice, \"I think I hate this,\" as she continued struggling through three rows of \"double crochet\". It didn't look much like any stitch I've ever done, but she stuck with it until she used up the ball of practice yarn. Then she was done, and headed home. I guess crocheting (or \"Yarning\" as 3-year-old G-man calls all the yarn arts) is not for everyone, but at least she tried.\nLabels: crochet, MOMS Club\nI'm so inspired by everyone who is struggling with the technique but keeps on trying! It just such fun to have so many ladies sitting around a table, working with yarn and sharing stories.\nLaurithree November 18, 2008 at 10:31 PM\nI have to admit I get a rush seeing all these people enjoying something I enjoy so much! And so many people are so excited about the project.\nI think I was one of the moms who you were talking about that didn't get it, LOL!! I LOVE the idea of \"yarning\" (I love that kid!), but I don't think I have the patience for it...\nLaurithree November 25, 2008 at 3:56 PM\nNaw, you just need a little one-on-one time. You keep trying, but there are a few who don't want to or can't. Which is totally fine. Everyone is helping in their own way.",

The coroner determined his death was caused by the long-term use of the stimulant forcibly prescribed to him through the school.\n\u201cIt all started for Matthew in the first grade, when the school social worker kept calling us in for meetings, complaining that Matthew was \u2018fidgeting\u2019 and \u2018easily distracted,\u2019 said Lawrence Smith. \u201cShe told my wife and I that if we wouldn't consider drugging our son, after the school had diagnosed him with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), that we could be charged for neglecting his educational and emotional needs.\u201d After also being told that the stimulant was safe and effective, the Smiths acceded to the pressure\nOn March 25th 2003, Mr. Smith testified before the Michigan State Legislature in support of House Bill 4025, which would prohibit school personnel from making a psychological diagnosis of a child and would also prohibit school personnel from recommending psychotropic drugs for any child.\nThe Michigan House Education Committee overwhelmingly passed this Bill.\nSmith states, \u201cThe violation of parents\u2019 rights occurs when they are not informed about the unscientific nature of so-called disorders such as ADHD or the risks of the drugs prescribed to treat their children. Not one more family should have to undergo the tragedy that mine has suffered, due to schools coercing parents to drug their child.\u201d\n\"If we hadn't been pressured by the school system, Matthew would still be alive today,\" says Mr. Smith. \"I cannot go back and change things for us at this point. However, I can speak out against the injustice to my family and families across the nation who are being coerced into drugging their children, in the hopes that legislators will enact safeguards for parents rights.\"\nReports of parents being threatened with medical neglect or child expulsion, have prompted several states to enact state laws prohibiting school personnel from recommending drugs and reinforcing a parents right to refuse drug treatment. Connecticut, Illinois, Minnesota and Virginia have passed such laws over the past two years. Since 2003, 15 more states have introduced similar laws, including Hawaii, Texas, Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New York, Michigan, Vermont and West Virginia.",

        "title": "Mailing list",
        "raw_content": "The mailing list is a multi-function entity. On one hand, it tells people about upcoming dinners and changes in location for almost no cost. It supplements our publicity, and can be used to send out last-minute announcements with some hope that they are read. Another function of the mailing list is to send out the recipes, which saves people the trouble of transcribing the recipes themselves. Also, if they have the recipe in front of them, they are more likely to try it themselves. Finally, the mailing list is good publicity outside of Rice. At the time of this revision, the clear majority of the list was non-Rice. They read it for the recipes, but Vivek thought some of them were also interested in seeing what it's like to have a campus vegetarian club.\nThe mailing list is actually a series of lists. At the largest level, we have one combined list which can reach all of the subscribers. We then have a list which consists of just the Houston addresses. This list is useful for sending change-of-location announcements. Generally, we try to send everything in one message, but if we ever need to send out small updates, having a separate local list keeps things manageable.\nThe local list is then split up further, into separate lists for each college, and another list for everyone else. (Make sure you find out what college students are from when they sign up initially for the list.) These sublists are used to send out announcements to the college members when it's time for their college to handle veggie cutting. We have also tried having the grad students handle veggie cutting before, so if there's enough interest, that announcement can be sent over the separate grad student list.\nPeople join our list in one of two ways - either at meetings, or by e-mail. At every dinner, we announce that we have a mailing list, and we have a sign-up sheet for people not already on the list. We also have a WWW page which has a form people can use to sign up for the list. We try to keep the list management duties simple, and most weeks, there are only about 3 or so people adding/dropping the list. We also try to limit the number of messages sent out over the lists in order to keep people from balking at a lot of useless messages.\nThe list is one-way only, and we keep it that way so that there isn't a large burden on the person running the list. There are other \"real\" mailing lists and newsgroups for people looking for a more active list, and if people join our list expecting something more active, you might want to let them know about the other resources so that they find what they really want.\nThe list is actually nothing more than an alias, which is maintained locally by someone (as opposed to be on some real listserv). As of this writing, the list is maintained in a \".mailrc\" file and actual messages are sent with the list in the \"bcc\" field using standard \"mail\", also referred to as \"Berkeley mail\". The specific mail program used to send the messages will determine how the list is formatted. I have created a general form letter which is sent back in response to a subscription request. It serves as a welcome letter and tells the person a little about the list. It saves a lot of typing and answering the same questions.\nTwo final points about the list - it's good to work from some sort of form letter so that you don't miss anything important. Obviously, the location, time, and date of the next dinner should be included, but you might also want to thank the veggie cutters or the recipe transcriber, etc., etc. Also, the list has historically been an RVC-only list. We don't send things from other organizations or other people on this list unless the RVC has some (real) role in the event. This is to keep the list from being abused by others, and to keep the traffic on the list low.\nThe standard form letter used to welcome people is:\nYou've been added to the Rice Vegetarian Club's e-mail list.  We're an\non-campus organization that has a dinner and cooking demonstration\nalmost every Saturday night. The e-mail list is used to present the\nrecipe from the last meeting as well as for various administrative\nThe e-mail list is split into two groups, one for Houston and the\nsurrounding area, and one for non-Houston people. If your e-mail\naddress is either from Rice or we get it from you at a Saturday\ndinner, you will be added to the local group. If your address seems\nnon-local, you will be added to the non-Houston group. I can change\nyou from one group to the other at your request.\nThe logic behind splitting the groups is to inform local people about\nthe locations and timings, etc. of the meetings.  Likewise, we'd like\nto keep such administrativia out of the mailboxes of people who may in\nall likelihood never attend a meeting.\nThanks for signing up, and please check out our WWW page if you get a\nchance, at http://www.rice.edu/rvc.  Any questions,\netc. regarding the mailing list should be addressed to me.\nVivek Pai (vivek@rice.edu)",

Some 25 years ago, Super Mario Bros may have won the Game of the Year, but advancement of technology allowed us to control the joystick and controllers other than the left, right, up and down directions.\nI was able to watch the Animax Video Game Awards 2010 - and I was impressed with the opening number with special participation of Neil Patrick Harris (yes, Mr. Doggie Howser!) - and he was on stage not to treat people, rather to \"mistreat the dancers\". Don't miss out on the opening number!\nI am sure it is a tough decision to choose the winners for the special awards (there were alot!). Some interesting categories are Best Performance by a Human Female and Best Performance by a Human Male. Of course, like in movies and TV Series, there is always Best Soundtrack category. For complete listing, check it here.\nThe awards night was highlighted with electrifying performance by My Chemical Romance, transforming the venue into a video game playground with blinking lights and graphics.\nThe show also features appearances by Chris Hemsworth,Michael Chilklis, and Dominic Monaghan.\nI don't want to spoil the excitement and announcement (I am not in my best gown/cocktail dress to announce the winners), you better catch the TV Telecast of the Animax Video Game Awards 2010 next week. For updates, check out the Animax Facebook Page.\nAnd, please.. turn off the PSP, Xbox and any gaming console when watching the TV Telecast. If I may say, the show is PG - yes, although it focuses on Gaming Awards, you might want to guide your kids when watching the shows.

He is the only Scandinavian designer on the official show schedule of the Paris Men\u2019s Fashion Week. Vibskov has exhibited at the Museum of Art and Design, New York; Art Cologne, Germany; MoMA PS1, New York; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; and the Textile Museum, Washington, DC, among other notable institutions. He has produced several large-scale solo exhibitions including at TEMPO Documentary Film festival in Stockholm; Daelim Museum, Seoul; \u201cNeck Plus Ultra\u201d at Galeries Lafayette, Paris and Gammel Strand, Copenhagen; and a major retrospective at Design Museum Helsinki in Finland. Prizes include Cologne Thrumber Award, 2017 and the 2011 S\u00f6derberg Prize, the highest design prize in the world. Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark awarded Vibskov the Thorvald Bindesb\u00f8ll Medal in 2016.\nIngri Fiksdal was a research fellow at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. She investigates choreography as a collective and affective event, grounded in a belief that art is a motor for change and something \u201cutterly useless\u201d as opposed to things that have a given or known purpose. Fiksdal\u2019s collaborative creative process places equal emphasis on music, sound, light design, scenography, costume, and dance/choreography. Her awards include the Natt & Dag Award for Night Tripper, the Norwegian Critics\u2019 Association Dance Award for HOODS, and a Hedda Award nomination for Cosmic Body, which made its North American premiere on the MCA Stage in 2016. She tours throughout Norway and has been presented at brut Wien, Vienna; Kampnagel, Hamburg; Harare International Festival of the Arts, Zimbabwe; the Homo Novus festival, Lithuania; In Between Time, Great Britain; the ANTI festival, Finland; and the Armory Show, New York.\nFrederik Floen\nFredrik Floen (1988) is a Norwegian costume and stage designer based in Oslo. Floen graduated from Oslo Academy of the Arts in spring 2017, with an MA in Fashion and Costume Design. His work is centered around costume practice as an independent artist in a theatrical aesthetic in different collaborations and contexts. He has worked as an assistant for the theatre company Vinge/M\u00fcller in Volksb\u00fchne, Berlin. Together with stage director Marie Nikazm Bakken, he has staged the early historic (and not so good) plays of Ibsen in Sweden and Norway.\nFloen's latest work, \"Mrs Inger to Osteraat\" was co-created with Bakken and presented at Otta Kulturhus in Oslo and the Turteatern in Stockholm, and is a \"horror piece without social relevance\" based on the historical figure and Henrik Ibsen's eponymous text that explores the aesthetic variants of the High Middle Ages in Norway mixed with popular references. With Bakken, Floen also created \u201cVikings of Helgeland\u201d by Ibsen in Stockholm, as a Netflix inspired performance series of 12 shows, with special episodes such as Ocean overture, Christmas edition and Greek tragedy, (sunrise to sunset). Floen was invited by the Danish collective Hotel ProForma to design costumes for the world premiere of \u201cVespertine,\u201d an opera based on Bj\u00f6rks pop-album with the same name in Mannheim, Germany; and with choreographer Ingri Fiksdal, he created Diorama, a series of site specific sparkling view performances.",

        "raw_content": "By Domenico Agasso Jr.\n(La Stampa) At this morning\u2019s mass in St. Martha\u2019s House, Francis urged faithful not to turn to those \u201cwho can tell us exactly what message Our Lady will be sending at 4\u2019o\u2019clock this afternoon\u201d, because \u201cthis identity is not Christian\u201d. He urged against \u201cwatering down\u201d the Christians identity so that is becomes a \u201csoft\u201d religion. He stressed that another risk which the testimony of those faithful to Jesus faces, is the worldliness of those who \u201cbroaden their minds\u201d so much that they let everything in.\nThe Pope took the words of St. Paul to the Corinthian about the identity of Jesus\u2019 disciples, as his cue for today\u2019s homily. It is true, he said, that \u201cin order to reach this Christian identity\u201d, God \u201cmade us go on a long journey through history\u201d before he sent his Son. \u201cIn our lives, we must also go on a long journey in order to make our Christian identity strong\u201d and so that we may bear \u201cwitness\u201d to it.\n\u201cIt is true, there is sin\u201d he said, \u201cand sin makes us fall, but we have the strength of the Lord to get up and go forth with our identity. But I would also say that sin is part of our identity: we are sinners, but sinners with faith in Jesus Christ. And it is not just a faith of knowledge, no. It is a faith that is a gift of God and entered us through God. It is God himself who confirms us in Christ. And he has anointed us, he has placed the seal on us, he has given an earnest penny, the seal of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. It is God who give us this gift of identity.\u201d\nIt is crucial \u201cto remain faithful to this Christian identity and to let the Holy Spirit \u2013 which is a guarantee, a seal in our hearts \u2013 help us move forward in our lives.\u201d\nChristians are not he kind of people that follow \u201ca philosophy\u201d, he warned. We are \u201canointed\u201d with \u201cthe seal of the Holy Spirit\u201d. \u201cIt is a beautiful identity,\u201d he underlined, \u201cwhich can be seen through testimony. Hence Jesus speaks to us about testimony as the language of our Christian identity.\u201d And this despite the fact that our Christian identity \u201cis tempted due to the fact that we are sinners: temptations will always come our way\u201d and our identity \u201ccan be weakened or lost\u201d.\nThe Pope warned against taking certain dangerous paths: \u201cFirstly, moving away from testimony and toward ideas, watering down our testimonies. \u2018Yes, I am Christian. Christianity is a nice idea. I pray to God.\u201d It is this way that we move away from Christ who is concrete \u2013 because Christian identity is concrete, we read this in the Beatitudes and this concreteness is also found in Matthew 25: Christian identity is concrete \u2013 to a religion that is a bit soft, along the same lines as Gnosticism. Scandal lies behind this. This Christian identity is scandalous. And the temptation is: \u2018No, no, no scandal\u201d.\n\u201cThe cross is a scandal,\u201d Francis explained, and so there are those who seek God \u201cwith these slightly ethereal Christian spiritualties\u201d, modern gnostics\u201d. Then, Francis warned, there are always those \u201cwho constantly need Christian identity to be renewed\u201d, \u201cforgetting that they were chosen, anointed,\u201d that \u201cthey have the seal of the Holy Spirit\u201d and they go in search of seers, asking: 'Where are the seers who can tell us exactly what message Our Lady will be sending at 4\u2019o\u2019clock this afternoon?' And their lives depend on this. This identity is not Christian. God\u2019s final word is \u201cJesus\u201d and nothing else.\u201d\nAnother way to backtrack on our Christian identity, is worldliness: \u201cBroadening our minds to fit everything in. \u2018Yes, we are Christians, but this is ok\u2026\u2019Not only morally but also humanly. Worldliness is human. This is how salt loses its taste. And we see Christian communities and Christians call themselves Christians, when they are unable or do not know how to bear witness to Jesus Christ. And so they gradually lose their identity and this worldly nominalism we see everyday. In the history of salvation, God, with the Father\u2019s patience, has brought us from ambiguity to certainty, to the concreteness of the incarnation and redeeming death of his Son. This is our identity.\u201d\nSt. Paul, he concluded, praises the Son of God who \u201cwas made man and died out of obedience,\u201d \u201cthis is identity and that is testimony\u201d; it is a grace that \u201cwe must ask the Lord for: that he may always grant us this gift of an identity which does not try to adapt to things\u201d to the point of \u201closing the taste of the salt\u201d, becoming insipid.\nLabels: Mary, Medjugorje, Our Lady, Pope Francis, St. Martha's House",

        "raw_content": "ARVIND KEJRIWAL IN VARANASI TRAP: SWEET REVENGE FOR KUMAR VISHWAS\nWords are flowing and why not. After all, it is the biggest electoral exercise in the world. And the Pundits (electoral) form the fourth pillar of this exercise along with the other constituents of the process - the voters, the administrative machinery conducting the poll and the candidates.\nAnd like all the \u2018talking point\u2019 candidates, Arvind Kejriwal is getting enough of the eyeballs. In fact, it can be said, he is efficiently adding to the flow of words on political and electoral analysis of the country\u2019s political situation in his direction.\nBut with practicing incessant verbal bravados, like Mr. Kejriwal has been doing, there is a clear and present threat of putting the foot in the mouth. And Mr. Kejriwal is no exception. In fact, he is doing it big time.\nIn the league of doing so, he claimed he would fight Narendra Modi from any seat the BJP\u2019s prime-ministerial candidate opted for. And there he was trapped.\nThough his candidature from Varanasi is yet to be declared officially by his party, Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party cannot afford the risk of withdrawing the \u2018proclamation\u2019 after talking so big, like Kejriwal will win against Narendra Modi, the BJP\u2019s prime-ministerial candidate, by a margin of over one lakh votes.\nThe reality is the day Narendra Modi decided to contest from Varanasi, the result was decided. When it comes to the Lok Sabha polls, Varanasi has been a BJP seat in the last two decades except aberrations like Congress win in 2004. But that was because of a BJP candidate who was not even a rubber stamp MP.\nAnyway, given the stature of Narendra Modi as a polarising pro-Hindutva figure in a temple town that is also the religious capital of Hinduism and India, Narendra Modi\u2019s victory is already sealed, irrespective of comments, claims and strategies of political opponents.\nAnd there would be many Kejriwal detractors feeling good about it but one person would be happy with a feeling of \u2018having scores settled\u2019 about this development. And he is Arvind Kejriwal\u2019s very own Kumar Vishwas, one of the founding members of AAP, who has been in news for many things including his increasing differences with AAP.\nReports said (and say) that Mr. Vishwas was not comfortable with the idea of contesting from Amethi, a Nehru-Gandhi family stronghold, a Congress safe-seat and Rahul Gandhi\u2019s parliamentary constituency. Even strong political candidates with a good record to claim would not think of contesting against Rahul Gandhi because it\u2019s sure loss. And for someone like Vishwas, fighting his first electoral battle, it is clear a political suicide, where he is staring at a loss that can come with forfeiture of deposit.\nBut Kumar Vishwas had to bite the bullet, unwillingly or sulking, it didn\u2019t matter. After all, Mr. Kejriwal is always right and he cannot take a \u2018no\u2019.\nBut, now that Mr. Kejriwal is trapped in his vocal bravery and is forced to bite the bullet of contesting against Narendra Modi from Varanasi that is going to make him bite the dust on May 16 when the results of the Varanasi parliamentary constituency will be declared voting for which is to be held on May 12, in the last phase of the General Elections of India (GE 2014).\nIt is indeed a sweet revenge for Mr. Vishwas and its sweetness increases for him given the fact that it owes its genesis in Mr. Kejriwal only.\nLosing against Modi from a Gujarat seat could have given Mr. Kejriwal space to manipulate words to practice his vocal bravery but that Varanasi is sans that advantage.\nLabels: #Modi, #ModiFromVaranasi, #NaMo, #Varanasi, Arvind Kejriwal, Kejriwal to Fight Modi, Kumar Vishwas, Modi Vs Kejriwal, NaMo, Narendra Modi, Satire, Varanasi, Varanasi Lok Sabha, Varanasi PC",

        "raw_content": "Euroconsult Has ESP 'Sees Into The Future' ... 23 New Countries In Space Programs By 2025\nDue to the positive factor that satellite technology has become more accessible and affordable, Euroconsult's latest report, Trends & Prospects for Emerging Space Programs confirms that in the last 20 years, 24 countries in 2015 have launched 69 satellites. This includes countries that have taken the initial step and launched their first satellite. In fact, 2015 was a record breaking year with nine of the first-timers' satellites launched.\nThe report continues with the forecast indicating that by 2025 there will be 47 countries coming forward as emerging into space programs with 23 newcomers who will have committed their first investment in space between 2016 and 2025. In the next 10 years more than 130 are predicted to be launched, doubling the total of the last decade. The value of the 130 satellites is more than double in cost, at almost $12 billion, versus the more than $5 billion during 2006-2015.\nNew to this edition, Euroconsult has developed an index, called ESP Index, which aims to model the probability for a new country to invest in a satellite system. The ESP Index is based on a three-part process consisting of data gathering, analysis, and ranking of 148 countries. The index is based on factors determined to be relevant in evaluating the initiation of a space program. The relevance of the ESP Index was verified with a \"reality check\" that consists of reviewing the score of countries that have already launched or ordered a satellite.\nSteve Bochinger, COO of Euroconsult and editor of the report stated, \"Based on their score in Euroconsult's ESP Index, some countries show a high profile regarding potential investment in satellite solutions and acquisition; four countries show very high potential as they rank in the top 20 countries while not having yet procured a satellite. Five other countries rank between 20th and 30th position.\"\nAnother new aspect of the report is a targeted survey completed with a selection of countries, in which part of the 24 countries identified as \"already active\" ESPs. The questionnaire was aimed to collect primary information on the countries' experience in implementing a satellite program, their strategy, benefits and lessons learned. The survey results, along with the collection of public information and the editor's own knowledge of subject matter, are combined to create Euroconsult's benchmark of emerging space programs.\nhttp://www.euroconsult-ec.com/shop/home/84-emerging-space-programs.html",

        "raw_content": "Weight Loss for Health and Better Premiums for Group Health and Life Insurance\nAt the beginning of 2010, there was a huge initiative pressed by the health care insurance industry to get workers on company plans to lose weight. You may remember being handed a pedometer and being asked to walk around your building at lunch. This has since become commonplace, but was partially spawned by Japanese companies firing employees for being overweight and being a drain on their health benefits plans and life insurance.\nIt may sound tacky, it may sound like a terrible thing, but if the company wants you to lose weight, there is almost no reason to stop them from requiring it. It is however, a very different story if they refuse to hire you because of a weight issue that you may have. If you are working for a company that is forcing healthy living and exercise upon you, it is your right to either stay with that company or move on because of their views on healthcare. Unfortunately, during a time of this economic slump it may be difficult to be choosy about the place where you are employed.\nThe best thing that can be done is to make an effort, even a minimal one. As long as you are participating, they can not force you out of the plan. If you do not comply, then that could be a completely different story.\nAll health plans and companies are different. Make sure to check with your HR representative to find out the stipulations to be considered as compliant with the company initiative and follow those to the letter.",

The report describes the necessity of an environmental radiation monitoring system in the wider region, precaution against and recovery from environmental contamination, the enhancement of research systems, and the importance of training human resources in this field. The essential point is reviewed concerning the measures to protect the people in Japan and the neighboring countries from environmental contamination by radioactive materials, which may be caused by the increasing use of nuclear energy.\nSince the middle of the 20th Century, the use of radiation and nuclear energy has made a great contribution to industrial development and improvement in living standards. At present, about 80 nuclear power stations are operated in East Asia and a full-scale reprocessing plant of spent fuels is in test operation in Japan. Nuclear powered warships cruise the sea around Japan, and dismantlement of old nuclear submarines is carried out on the opposite shore of the Japan Sea. Since the end of the Cold War, the menace of terrorism has been made manifest with the use of compact nuclear weapons and dirty bombs with radioactive materials. Therefore, it is necessary to construct the network of the environmental radiation and radioactivity monitoring system in East Asia for protection against nuclear hazard caused by the emission of radioactive materials in the countries of this region including Japan. For safe disposal of radioactive waste accumulated in the reprocessing plant, it is a matter of urgency to establish disposal technology that can be accepted by the public. In order to settle these problems, it is necessary to enhance the research systems, to strengthen coordination between research institutes, and to focus on the education for training scientists and engineers in this field.\nIn order to satisfy the increase in energy demand among developing countries, further development of nuclear energy is expected in East Asia without aggravating global warming. For the purpose of protection of the people in Japan and the neighboring countries from environmental contamination by radioactive materials, it is essential for Japan to positively adopt the various policies described above and to take the leadership in accomplishing their mission. For this purpose, there are two types of measures to be taken: those implemented by the government and the others that should be contented with by related universities, research institutes, scientific societies and scientists themselves.",

The focus will be on the relationship between technological progress and psychological pathological phenomena. Is our relationship with our smartphones changing the nature of our neuroses, especially with regard to our libidinal drives? By providing psychoanalytic close readings of these pertinent fictions and others, a theoretical framework will emerge for a deeper understanding of these phenomena. Also, does technology impact our theories of fetishism\u2014it is one thing to be \u201cunnaturally\u201d attached to a part of the body or an object, but what happens when the \u201cobject\u201d to which we attach our libidinal drives is, itself, sentient (or quasi-sentient)? Freud\u2019s Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality posited a theory of fetish-attachment predicated on notions of substitution, of something \u201ctak[ing] the place of the normal aim.\u201d But what if the actual, new attachment is not a substitution, but a replacement\u2014an outright change of direction? How does this impact the way we interpret behavior? Is this object fetishism, proper, or, as in Jonze\u2019s Her, is the new relationship (in this case with a computer OS), more satisfying for the allegedly neurotic individual?\nIdentify three clinical issues that are influenced by \u201ccommunications\u201d technology (cell phones, computers, and so on) and articulate how an understanding of these issues can improve patient care.\nList two contributions that Freud\u2019s theory of fetishism (as applied to contemporary material affected by communications technology) can make towards a more clinically effective understanding of patients\u2019 material.\nDescribe three ways that gender, cultural, and linguistic difference affect how patients use communications technology and how such an understanding can increase the clinical effectiveness of given interventions.\nThe Director of MALAS (the Master of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences program), William Nericcio also is professor of English and Comparative Literature & Chicana/o Studies and serves on the faculty of the Center for Latin American Studies at San Diego State University. Nericcio\u2019s first book, Tex[t]-Mex: Seductive Hallucinations of the \u201cMexican\u201d in America, appeared with the University of Texas Press in February, 2007. His next book, an edited anthology of playwright Oliver Mayer\u2019s early works entitled The Hurt Business, appeared in April of 2008, and his follow-up to that, Homer from Salinas: John Steinbeck\u2019s Enduring Voice for California, on the work of John Steinbeck (with a California perspective), appeared in March, 2009. Other essays include Nericcio\u2019s lurid meditations on the life of Pee-wee Herman (a.k.a. Paul Reubens) in the Iowa Journal of Cultural Studies and an illustrated survey of the cool graphic narrative Mestizo stylings of Gilbert Hernandez and his spiritual godmother, Frida Kahlo, for NYU Press\u2019s Latino Popular Culture.

        "raw_content": "Bayer's Liam Condon: An Important Day for the Future of Agriculture\nBringing these leading R&D capabilities under one roof, we believe we can accelerate our innovation pipeline bringing farmers the innovations they are hungry for, says Liam Condon, who will lead the combined Bayer Crop Science Division when the integration with Monsanto commences.\nFarmers are hungry for innovation. Consumers and our planet will benefit from supporting them!\nBy Liam Condon, Member of the Board of Management of Bayer AG and President Crop Science Division\n(June 7, 2018) - About two years ago, Bayer and Monsanto reached an agreement under which Bayer would acquire Monsanto. In that time, I\u2019ve had the opportunity to meet farmers from around the world, including the United States, Brazil, Kenya, Nigeria, Germany, the Netherlands, China and India to name only a few.\nIn many ways, these farmers and their stories couldn\u2019t be more different. Some grow corn and soy. Some grow wheat. Others grow rice. And still many others grow any other number of crops: from chilies to fruit to vegetables. Some of the farmers I met tend to farms larger than 20,000 acres (more than 108,000 soccer fields) while others have farms of only two acres (about the size of one soccer field).\nBut, no matter the size of their operation, these farmers face a common challenge: how to grow more with less. The earth\u2019s population is rapidly growing. Its natural resources are limited. And this calls for breakthrough innovation\u2014not just to help farmers improve this year\u2019s harvest, but to help ensure the health of their fields, their environment, their farm operations and the global food system for generations to come.\nToday we are one step closer to our goal of delivering that innovation to farmers. After two long years working with regulators and preparing to close the transaction, today Bayer completed the acquisition of Monsanto, a major step in our journey to create a global leader in agriculture.\nIt has been a long road for us to get to today\u2014 to be honest, even longer than we expected. And, while we\u2019re looking forward to proceed with the integration of Bayer and Monsanto, we still aren\u2019t quite there yet. Our two companies can only begin to integrate as soon as the divestments to BASF have been completed in approximately two months.\nBut over the past two years I never once doubted the rationale behind this combination and why it will deliver innovation necessary to help all kinds of farmers.\nAnd here\u2019s why: By bringing together Bayer\u2019s cutting-edge chemical and biological crop protection solutions with Monsanto\u2019s pioneering expertise in seed and traits, we believe we can offer farmers a customized toolbox of solutions offering them the best choice of technologies. With these leading R&D capabilities under one roof, we believe we can accelerate our innovation pipeline bringing farmers the innovation they are hungry for. On top of that, we will have a leading digital agriculture platform, the Climate Corporation. With the latest in analytics and digital insights, we can help farmers make smarter decisions that make the best use of their limited natural resources and, ultimately, improve both their sustainability and their profitability.\nTo bring this innovation to life, we have a passionate global team: a diverse workforce including agronomists, data scientists, biologists, chemists and many, many more. Yet our team also has plenty of mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and of course grandparents who want to look after the health of their families and communities around the world and who really care about our customers. They walk the fields with our customers, listening so they can provide the best solutions customized to those farmers\u2019 needs. And not only do farmers care what is put into the ground, they care about how it is grown \u2014because their families and friends depend on healthy crops just as much as you and I do.\nAnd while innovation and progress are crucial moving forward, they will be meaningless without public acceptance. We recognize our heightened responsibility and we\u2019re fully committed to further strengthening transparency. We plan to multiply our efforts to foster open dialogue with the general public to better connect farmers and consumers and to help explain that good food needs healthy fields and harvests \u2013 and innovation can help achieve that.\nI truly believe there has never been a more exciting time to be in agriculture. I look forward to the upcoming integration of our teams and am very confident that our combined talent and portfolio will deliver outstanding innovation and services to farmers of all sizes around the world. And that will allow us not only to have a healthy business, but also to help make the world a little better, one harvest at a time.\nBayer and Monsanto continue to operate as competitors until the hold separate order as imposed by the US Department of Justice has been lifted.",

I acknowledge the learned men who have preceded me in this office. The expectations of the bench, bar and the Seychellois people in general are high. I welcome the huge challenge and will do my best to live up to it.\u201d\nShe added: \u201cI know there are great expectations from the public and huge responsibilities on my shoulders and I hope I can deliver as I am expected to.\n\u201cIt will not be easy and I recognise that it is a huge load but with the support of my colleagues we will succeed to further modernise the judiciary.\u201d\nMrs Twomey, who is the third Seychellois Chief Justice but the first female to be appointed to the post, has had an illustrious career in the legal profession. She first served as a barrister in the Ocean Gate Law Centre as pupil to Justice Francis MacGregor, then in the Attorney General\u2019s Chambers, subsequently as an attorney-at-law in private chambers and a member of the Constitutional Commission before moving to Ireland in 1995.\nShe holds a Master\u2019s Degree in Public Law and currently lectures at the National University of Ireland in Galway where she is completing her PhD research.\nJustice Twomey graduated with a BA in English and French Law from the University of Kent, holds a degree in French Law from the University of Paris-Sud and was admitted as a Member of the Bar at Middle Temple, London, and as an Attorney-at-Law in Seychelles.\nMrs Twomey was appointed a non-resident judge of the Court of Appeal in March 2011. With her new position Justice Twomey will soon be moving back to Seychelles.\n\u201cI still have some personal matters to tend to and some work to complete in Ireland as well as my thesis to defend. But as soon as I complete all of these I will return to Seychelles and hopefully by the end of September I will start work in my new position,\u201d she said.\nJustice Twomey admitted that this new position will have some impact on her family life.\n\u201cI have had to make a lot of personal sacrifices and adjustments. I have four children \u2013 three of them adults who live abroad and a 12-year-old daughter who will stay with her father in Ireland to continue her education. But I am devoted to my country and I am ready to make those sacrifices.\u201d\nEarlier, President Michel had said: \u201cJustice Twomey is a highly-qualified legal practitioner, with a wealth of experience and knowledge, which, no doubt, will be of vast benefit to the legal and judicial system in our country and the reforms that are needed.\n\u201cShe is the third Seychellois Chief Justice and I\u2019m particularly proud of the fact that I have appointed a woman to the post, a first for Seychelles and a major achievement.\u201d",

All of the accepted films have been notified. All the accepted movies are up on the website. The dates for screening the movies are also up, but it is a moving target. Some films get pulled due to distribution contract language and some are moved to accomodate things that come up. So if your film has only one date listed that may change in the next week.\nThe Winners are posted. Sorry it took so long, but my computer took a dump and I couldn't get on the website to update it.\nJudging is in its final stages this weekend. We will post the winners on November 1st. We have had a wonderful audience reception of the festival and the films. The films just get better and better every year. Films that would have won ShockerFest back in 2002, now do not even make the cut to be shown. I want to give kudos to all the filmmakers that were accepted into ShockerFest this year, you guys were amazing.\nShockerFest begins Oct 1. only one week away. I have been working like crazy to get this new website up and running. I hope you like it. The old one looked pretty bad. Please give me any input you can to help us create a better website and a better festival.\nI am a writer, produce, director. I produce and direct several TV shows on KAZV-TV here in Modesto, CA. I am also an author. My Sci-Fi novel, Symbiosis, is available on Amazon.com. Please check it out.\nMy husband George and I have been co-Directors of ShockerFest for the last 10 years.

        "title": "PLASTIC PALLETS : Polypropylene VS Polyethylene",
        "raw_content": "Some interesting facts about polyethylene and polypropylene\nPolyethylene and polypropylene belong to the class of thermoplastic polymers (which soften and stretch when heated and harden when cooled, so that it can be moulded anew again and again).\nA brief account of the chemistry:\nThe ethylene molecule, whose chemical formula is C2H4, is described as H2C=CH2 and drawn as: two carbons that are joined through a double bond, where each carbon is tied to two hydrogen atoms. Ethylene is a colourless gas with a mild sweet odour. When combining the exact combination of pressure, temperature and suitable catalyst, the double bond of the ethylene molecule will split to form a multi-atom molecule, which is a polyethylene molecule in the following form of:\nIn its short form it appears as:\nIt is customary to add an \u201cn\u201d value on the right side of the basic unit (monomer), suggesting a large number of units connected to one another.\nBy controlling the reactionary conditions, it is possible to control the amount of branching, polymer density, and mechanical properties such as hardness, melting point, impact resistance, and stretching and bending composition.\nPolyethylene was first synthesized in a laboratory in 1898 by accident, during the investigation of a different material substance. it was termed then polyethylene. The first industrially polyethylene synthesis was discovered in 1933, but only in 1944, during World War II, that polyethylene was considered a useful material; it was used for coating the cable wires of military radio systems. This is what led to its industrial and commercial production. A significant breakthrough in the industrial production of polyethylene was discovered in 1951 by the American scientists Robert Banks and J. Paul Hogan from the American Phillips Petroleum Company; in 1953, chemists Karl Ziegler from Germany and Giulio Natta from Italy (who later went on to win the Nobel Prize for their work) developed a catalytic system that allowed to produce polyethylene at milder temperatures and pressures.\nPolyethylene is known in a number of key forms:\nLow-density polyethylene LDPE: (a density range of 0.91-0.94 g/cm3 )\nThis is a relatively soft material, used to manufacture soft boxes and containers, plastic bags and wrapping sheets.\nLinear low-density polyethylene LLDPE: (a density range of 0.915 to 0.925 g/cm3)\nThis material is stronger than LDPE, more resistant to impact, and can be produced in thinner sheets. Although it is more resistant to environmental conditions, it is harder to process. LLDPE is used to produce thin layers of sheets and bags, toys, lids, buckets, and coatings for cables, wires and pipes.\nHigh-density polyethylene HDPE: (a density range of 0.941 to 0.965 g/cm3)\nThis material is more rigid than its predecessors, and is highly resistant to environmental conditions. HDPE is used in the production of milk containers, detergent containers, garbage containers, water pipes, pallets and crates. The fact that this material retains its mechanical properties even at low temperatures (below zero) makes it ideal for being used to produce storage products that need to fit into freezers for long periods of time and for multiple use.\nMedium-density polyethylene MDPE, Cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), and Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), are more types of polyethylene materials used in pallet products.\nThe propylene molecule, whose chemical formula is C3H6, is drawn as: , can be described as follows:\nTwo carbons that are joined through a double bond, one carbon tied to two hydrogen atoms, and the another carbon tied to a hydrogen and to a Methyl. Propylene gas is both colourless and odourless. When combining the exact combination of pressure, temperature and suitable catalyst, the double bond of the propylene molecule will split, to form a multi-atom molecule, which is a propylene molecule in the following form:\nBy controlling the reactionary manufacturing conditions (temperature, pressure, and catalyst type), it is possible to cause the ingot molecules to be cast from the same direction all the time, or alternating \u2013 once in one direction and once in the opposite direction periodically, or randomly in different directions. The polypropylene produced using each of these three options differ in type (consisting of other properties) and are consequently suitable for different kinds of products.\nPolypropylene was first synthesized in 1951 by American scientists Robert Banks and J. Paul Hogan; in 1954, chemists Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta (who later went on to win the Nobel Prize for their work) developed a catalytic system that allowed to produce polypropylene at milder temperatures and pressures.\nPolypropylene is used in the making of a variety of plastic items including: toys, household appliances, food packaging, boxes, containers, auto parts, irrigation equipment and parts, transparent sheets, raffia, fibers and carpets, and much more. Polypropylene is found in nearly everything around us. It is relatively inexpensive to produce and is light in weight.\nPolypropylene can be both rigid and durable when bent, softer and more impact resistant, transparent or opaque. It is usually limited for use in temperatures above 0\u00baC, and this is its main shortcoming in comparison with polyethylene.\nPolyethylene was first produced 20 years prior to the production of polypropylene, yet while development of polyethylene was slow and nearly at a standstill, polypropylene benefited from much great advancement and attention. Scientists are continually finding new properties contained within this matter, unlocking new and interesting manufacturing possibilities, both in the processing and fabrication of new elements for products made of polypropylene; these include transparency, mechanical resistance, stiffness, shortened cycled times, thin-walled products and more.\nMost companies primarily uses high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and all types of polypropylene (PP) in its products.\nPolyethylene vs. Polypropylene:\nHDPE PP\nDensity range (g/cm3) 0.941-0.965 0.9-0.92\nMelting point[\u00baC] 132 160\nService temperature[\u00baC] -70\u00f7 65 0 \u00f7 88\nResistance to viruses Less good Better\nLess good Better",

Among Asians, the Japanese have been reported to have a higher incidence of coronary vasospasm (40%).(1) Although there is currently no published global database to define the magnitude of drug-induced coronary vasospasm in young people, it is still an important cause of ACS and arrhythmia.(1) Herein, we report a case of drug-induced coronary vasospasm in a young patient.\nA 29-year-old woman presented with retrosternal chest tightness radiating to the back, which lasted for two hours and was associated with breathlessness, diaphoresis and palpitations. She was a non-smoker and had no family history of premature coronary artery disease. She reported taking a 15-mg dose of Panbesy (phentermine hydrochloride) daily for the last five months for weight loss, with no intentional overdose. She was non-obese (weight 60 kg) and nondiabetic (haemoglobin A1c 5.1%; fasting glucose 5.8 mmol/L), and her lipid panel was as follows: total cholesterol 4.56 mmol/L; low-density lipoprotein cholesterol 3.14 mmol/L; triglycerides 0.51 mmol/L; and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol 1.19 mmol/L.\nOn examination, the patient showed signs of distress due to her ongoing angina. Vital signs showed regular heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate (98 beats/minute, 112/79 mmHg and 20 breaths/minute, respectively). Systemic examination was unremarkable. Electrocardiography (ECG) showed sinus tachycardia with diffuse ST-segment depressions in the limb and chest leads, and ST-segment elevation in aVR (Fig. 1). Chest radiography was normal, computed tomography of the aorta showed no evidence of aortic dissection or intramural haematoma, and her D-dimer test result was also normal. However, her cardiac troponin levels were elevated (479 ng/L). Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography showed a left ventricular ejection fraction of 45%, normal valves, and regional wall motion abnormalities in the basal, mid-inferior, mid-inferolateral, mid-anterolateral and basal-inferoseptal territories, which suggested ischaemia in the territories supplied by the right coronary artery and left circumflex artery. Subsequent coronary angiography, however, showed normal coronaries. No provocative test was performed.\n12-lead ECG on presentation shows sinus tachycardia with diffuse ST-segment depressions in the limb and chest leads, and ST-segment elevation in aVR.\nThe clinical impression was non-ST-segment elevation ACS resulting from coronary vasospasm, which was likely precipitated by Panbesy. The patient made an uneventful recovery and was advised to stop taking Panbesy. Her ECG was normal prior to discharge (Fig. 2).\n12-lead ECG prior to discharge shows normal sinus rhythm.\nCoronary vasospasm is a transient, intense vasoconstriction of the epicardial coronary arteries. It can either be unifocal (i.e. involving a focal segment of a single vessel) or multifocal (i.e. involving multiple segments of the same vessel or many vessels). Coronary vasospasm is commonly encountered in normal coronary arteries.(2) Prinzmetal angina, also known as variant angina, is an entity characterised by rest angina and transient ST-T abnormalities due to coronary vasospasm. The mechanism of this condition is believed to involve endothelial dysfunction, although the coronaries are normal. Prinzmetal angina is confirmed by demonstrating coronary artery spasm using provocative testing with either acetylcholine or ergonovine during coronary angiography. It can be diagnosed only in the absence of coronary artery disease and following a thorough history to exclude any drug-induced coronary vasospasm.\nPanbesy, an anorectic agent, is a centrally acting sympathomimetic amine used in the treatment of obesity. Peripherally, it stimulates the release of neurotransmitters such as adrenaline.(3) Cardiac complications associated with Panbesy include hypertension, coronary vasospasm leading to myocardial ischaemia/infarction and fatal arrhythmias such as ventricular fibrillation.(4) However, very few randomised controlled trials have studied the safety of Panbesy. In Singapore, phentermine is marketed as Panbesy and Duromine, and is approved as a short-term adjunct for obesity treatment. The Ministry of Health, Singapore, has advised doctors to use the drug judiciously and monitor for side effects.(5) To our knowledge at the time of writing, no cases of phentermine-induced ACS have been reported in Singapore. Thus, it is important to take a thorough drug history for young adults who present with ACS.\n1.

        "raw_content": "Home Facebook Woman Decides to Donate Kidney After Responding to a Facebook Post\nWoman Decides to Donate Kidney After Responding to a Facebook Post\nTuesday, October 20, 2015 Facebook\nLast week a cancer patient's life was saved thanks to a Facebook post and this week another woman's life has been saved yet again with the power of social media. On behalf of his daughter, Darren Hewitt posted a question on the social network. He was asking if anyone could spare a kidney to save his daughter. Much to his surprise, the post was successful and Louise Drewery stepped up and donated the organ.\nOrgan donation is not an uncommon thing, and it really is a wonderful gesture, but usually you either know the person or you are a declared organ donor. Louise however took it upon her to save a complete stranger because to her it was the right thing to do. It is a life changing decision for both parties.\nFacebook truly is proving its power lately as this is the second time in just a week that I have mentioned its success in saving someone's life. Louise Drewery's decision to donate an organ was made possible because the father of 26 year old Stacey took to social media as a last resort. Despite the normality of organ donation, there is still such a limited amount of donors available so Stacey's last minute chance of being granted this kidney was overwhelming. Without this transplant, Stacey would have needed to wait approximately 3 years as her parents were not a match. The family were concerned that she would not last that long before needing long term care. Thankfully, her father's last attempt at getting her a kidney resulted in a life changing moment.\nIn the months running up to the transplant, the tests confirmed that Louise was ready to go. She said that she wanted to do it so that Stacey's little boy didn't have to grow up without her. Then, she found that she was worried about not waking up herself and her own children would have to live without her. This was a huge life decision but she went through with it and both mums woke up healthy and happy. They have said that they now share a never ending bond and Stacey is eternally grateful to Louise.\nThis is the first time that anything quite like this has been made possible but it was a long time coming after all. Stacey was very lucky that Louise felt she could donate her kidney to a complete stranger simply based on the fact that she needed one. It is hard to tell if Facebook will become the cause of this again but there is no doubt that it would not be a surprise if the network did become a resource for organ donations and other medical procedures.\nWoman Decides to Donate Kidney After Responding to a Facebook Post Reviewed by Sophie Giscard on Tuesday, October 20, 2015 Rating: 5",

It was real hot and humid,'' he said.\n\"Savo was real good too, stopping off at the villages and chilling out with the locals and the kids, it was real cool.\"\nPrivate Hunt-Irvine said the biggest challenge of the deployment was dealing with the heat.\n\"The hardest part has been acclimatising, I still get ridiculously hot even after being here for four months. I'm still not used to it.''\nIt was his first deployment.\n\"It's been good. I was so looking forward to it. It's been great to get the experience of being on a deployment.''\nPrivate Hunt-Irvine was looking forward to seeing his family and catching up with friends. He now has a baby sister who was born while he was on deployment.\n\"I can't wait to meet her,'' he said.\nThe 45 personnel from 2nd/1st Battalion Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment and supporting units, worked alongside Australian Defence Force, Papua New Guinea and Tongan military personnel as part of the mission's military contingent.\nThe mission in the Solomon Islands has changed significantly since the Defence Force first assisted the mission in 2003.\nThere has been a reducing requirement in recent years for the military to play a direct role in maintaining law and order and the aim is for the military to withdraw during 2013.\nSource: starcanterbury.co.nz",

        "raw_content": "The Ringmaster's Secret\nIllustrated by Carolyn Keene\nReviewed by Patricia M. (age 10)\nWhen Nancy Drew, a detective, joins the circus she discovers a mystery that needs to be solved. Soon she meets a friend named Lolita who was told by her foster father, also known as the ringmaster, her parents were killed in an accident during a live performance. But Lolita's mother was spotted in a distant country. Now, Nancy is determined to find her. Is she really alive and will she find her with danger around every turn?\nI think this book is full of suspense because at the end of most of the chapters there is an incident that made me want to read on. This book is part of a series. It is similar to the other books in the series because the other books are also suspenseful mysteries. Nancy Drew, the detective, reminds me of myself because I am active and daring too. I found Nancy Drew interesting because she is not scared and always looking for a mystery to solve; not many teenagers are like that!\nThis is a spectacular book for girls interested in page turning mysteries because it is full of suspense.\nPatricia M. is a student in Mrs. Salewski's 5th Grade through 6th Grade Class",

        "raw_content": "Club: Urawa Red Diamonds | Opening: 2001 | Capacity: 63,700 seats\nSaitama Stadium was built to serve as a venue for the 2002 World Cup. Plans for the new stadium were first made in the early 1990s on the condition that Japan would get to host the 2002 World Cup, which was confirmed in 1996.\nConstruction of the stadium started in 1998 and finished just over three years later. Saitama Stadium officially opened on 6 October 2001 and the first match, a league match between the Urawa Reds and Yokohama F Marinos, was played one week later.\nDuring the 2002 World Cup, Saitama Stadium hosted three group matches and the semi-final between Brazil and Turkey (1-0).\nSaitama Stadium is also one of the playing venues that is most used by the Japanese national team.\nHow to get to Saitama Stadium\nSaitama Stadium 2002 is located in Midori-ku ward in the east of Saitama. Saitama itself lies about 25 kilometres north of central Tokyo. The stadium is situated in a light-urban area which is planned to be further developed in the next 20 years.\nYou can best reach the stadium by taking a train to Urawa Misono Station, which lies a 15-minute walk south-east of the stadium.\nUrawa Misono Station is served by trains from the Saitama Rapid Railway. The Saitama Rapid Railway can be boarded at station Akabane Iwabuchi, which is the last stop on the Nanbuko line of the Tokyo metro. From Tokyo Station catch a KR Keihin-Tohoku line train to Oji and change to the Nanbuko line, or find another connection. The complete journey will take between 45 and 60 minutes.\nOn matchdays shuttle buses run from the train station to the stadium from three hours before the match. After the match you need to walk back to the station.\nAddress: 500 Nakanoda, Midori-ku, Saitama City, Saitama, 336-0972\nUrawa Red Diamonds Tickets\nTickets for Urawa Red Diamonds games can be bought online (or through Pia, Eplus, or HMV), at the Red Voltage store at Naka-cho 2-4-1 in Urawa Ward (Saitama City), or at any 7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Pia, Ministop, Circle K, or Lawson convenient store.\nMatchday tickets can also be bought on the day of the match at the gates of the stadium. Urawa Reds\u2019 attendances are the highest in the league, but due to the high capacity of the stadium it will rarely sell out.\nTicket prices typically start at Y$2000, with prices for reserved seating ranging between Y$2,400 and Y$4,800. Prices are Y$ 500 more expensive if bought on the day.\nPhotos of Saitama Stadium\nUrawa-reds.co.jp \u2013 Official website of Urawa Red Diamonds.\nStadium2002.com \u2013 Official website of Saitama Stadium 2002.\nSainokuni-kanko.jp \u2013 Saitama tourist information.",

The Investigative Project on Terrorism also reported that Mustapha raised money for the Holy Land Foundation, a Shariah Charity that was shut down for funneling money to Hamas.\nNational media is reporting that the Illinois State Police has revoked the appointment of its first Muslim chaplain, likely as a result of his ties to the Palestine Committee of the US Muslim Brotherhood. According to the report:\nCHICAGO \u2014 The Illinois State Police has revoked the appointment of the agency's first Muslim chaplain, citing only information revealed during a background check. A national Muslim advocacy group Wednesday blamed the move on Islamophobia. Kifah Mustapha, a Chicago-area imam, was appointed the agency's first Muslim chaplain in December. Community groups had praised Mustapha's appointment as a nod to the growing diversity among the agency's nearly 2,000 officers.\nBut within days, the appointment came under criticism from the Investigative Project on Terrorism, a Washington-based think tank. The group alleged that Mustapha was linked to the Palestine Committee of the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood, a popular movement in the Muslim world that advocates the formation of Islamic governments in the Middle East. It also alleged he raised money for the Holy Land Foundation, a now-defunct Islamic charity whose founders were sentenced last year for funneling money to the Palestinian militant group Hamas. The group cited internal documents and a list of unindicted co-conspirators. Mustapha hasn't been charged with any crimes. Messages left Wednesday for Mustapha weren't immediately returned. According to a statement from the Illinois State Police, after Mustapha underwent training in December and was issued state identification and a bulletproof vest, it was discovered that he had not undergone background checks required to serve in the volunteer position. Mustapha's appointment was rescinded Friday, but that action wasn't publicly disclosed until late Tuesday after media inquiries. \"Due to information revealed during the background investigation, Sheikh Kifah Mustapha's appointment as a volunteer ISP Chaplain has been denied,\" ISP spokesman Master Sgt. Isaiah Vega said in an e-mail. \"Specific details of background investigations are confidential and cannot be discussed.\" Vega declined to say whether there was a connection between the think tank's allegations and Mustapha's dismissal.But the Council of American-Islamic Relations in Chicago, which is representing Mustapha, said the imam was told that was why his appointment was put on hold.\nSupreme Court upholds law that criminalizes material support to terror organizations.\nCNN.com Blog\nA divided Supreme Court has ruled the government's power to criminalize \"material support\" of a terrorist organization is constitutionally permissible.\nThe 6-3 ruling preserves a key provision of the 2001 Patriot Act, amid claims it threatens the free-speech rights of Americans who would assist non-violent activities of certain militant and terror groups.\nLouisiana just passed two bills: one stating that \u201cno foreign law shall be applied here if it violates a right guaranteed by the American Constitution.\u201d Another is \u201cRachel\u2019s Law,\u201d which protects individuals against libel tourism. Both of these are in response to the violation of not only freedom of speech, but also basic constitutional freedoms denied by Shariah Law. The hope is that more states will follow suit, protecting human rights for all Americans, including those that are otherwise subject to Shariah Law in their own homes.",

        "raw_content": "1. What is worship like at St. Paul?\nWe rely on volunteer musicians to help lead worship so worship changes a little from week to week. However, it is always comfortable, rooted in the Lutheran tradition, and focused on its true task, the worship and praise of God. We are by tradition liturgical. We celebrate the sacraments regularly (communion weekly). Lay leadership is encouraged\n2. What about my kids in worship?\nFirst and foremost, we welcome the joyful noise of children in our worship space. We also encourage families to include their children in worship. Activity clipboards are available in the worship space and youth often light candles, read the scriptures, and serve in other leadership roles. That said, we do provide a nursery space for young children and Sunday School for grades K-5 is during worship. Nursing mothers are welcome to feed their little ones wherever and whenever they are comfortable. Changing tables are available in the nursery and in the restrooms.\n3. What kind of Lutherans are you?\nSt. Paul is a member congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). We support the teaching and work of the larger church while allowing for our local input and beliefs. We are a community that is far more diverse than one might notice at first glance. We are from more than four countries. Poor and rich. Conservative and progressive. Those who worship with us might in a different setting better identify as Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, UCC, Presbyterian, Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, or something else all together. We are united by the gospel and our desire to live an active faith that serves the Kingdom of God regardless of boundary or expectation. For more information about our beliefs and those of the ELCA click here.",

        "title": "Walking along the Union Canal in Edinburgh | Stravaiging around Scotland",
        "raw_content": "On a gloriously sunny day a few weeks ago we decided to go for a walk along the Union Canal in Edinburgh.\nSince we live on the east side of the city centre and the canal starts from the Lochrin Basin on the west side we walked through the centre of town via the National Museum of Scotland. Walking down Candlemaker Row there\u2019s a great view of Edinburgh Castle rising high above the Grassmarket on Castle Rock.\nCandlemaker is quite a narrow street with tall buildings on one side which are the back of those on George IV Bridge, including the old Harvey\u2019s Furniture Store and the former Martyr\u2019s Free Church for the Reformed Presbyterians (both now pubs).\nRising even higher is the French-influenced roof of the Central Public Library, the first library in Scotland to be funded by Andrew Carnegie.\nPassing through the Grassmarket we caught another glimpse of the Castle.\nOn the corner of East Fountainbridge and Lothian Road is the old Fountainbridge branch of the Trustee Savings Bank (now a Lloyds TSB), above the door of which is a domed recess containing a mosaic with the quotation \u201cThrift is Blessing\u201d from Shakespeare\u2019s The Merchant of Venice.\nAcross Lothian Road East Fountain Bridge becomes Fountainbridge, and we passed the arched entrance to the old Edinburgh Meat Market.\nNot much further along Fountainbridge is the entrance to the Lochrin Basin, the eastern terminal of the Union Canal. The canal used to continue to a point between Semple Street and Lothian Road but was truncated and the land there reclaimed for development.\nCompleted in 1822 the canal was built to connect Edinburgh to the Forth and Clyde Canal to allow coal and other goods to be brought into the city by boat. With the advancement of the railways the canal had fallen out of use by the 1930s but in recent years a regeneration programme has led to the canal being a popular place to walk, cycle, run and row.\nThere are lots of boats moored along the canal at this end, inlcuding a ship (ok, boat) called Dignity.\nNot far along the canal is the Leamington Lift Bridge, an interesting vertical lift bridge.\nFurther still, above the keystone of the Viewforth Bridge is a carved representation of Edinburgh\u2019s coat of arms.\nAs we rounded a slight bend in the canal Polwarth parish church came into view.\nThis really is a great place for a walk, very peaceful and relaxed. It doesn\u2019t feel like you\u2019re in the middle of a city at all.\nNext to the bridge which connects Ashley Terrace to Gray\u2019s Loan is the Ashley Terrace boathouse.\nWe left the canal\u2019s towpath at this point, walking up Gray\u2019s Loan before turning onto Polwarth Terrace, continuing along Polwarth Grove and Polwarth Gardens before turning up Merchiston Avenue to the junction between Morningside and Bruntsfield, known as Holy Corner. Across the road here is the Morningside United Church.\nWe walked across Bruntsfield Links and down to the Meadows, where the glass boxes of the Quartermile poke out above the trees.\nToday was the first really warm day of the year so the Meadows was busy. Long may the good weather continue.\nAfter basking in the sun for a while we made our way up Middle Meadow Walk, heading for home.",

        "raw_content": "Santa Monica Neighborhood Group Says New Plan for Cars Needed\nJune 28, 2017 -- As they try to usher in a new era of \u201cmulti-modality,\u201d City officials are embracing bicyclists and pedestrians but are neglecting the motorists who still dominate Santa Monica's streets, a neighborhood organization said Tuesday.\nIn a letter to the City Council, the Board of Directors of Friends of Sunset Park said that while the city has funded actions plans for bicycles and pedestrians, there doesn't seem to be a similar citywide plan for motor vehicles.\n\u201cSanta Monica's reality means that we have hundreds of thousands of car trips each day that need to move in and out of our city, so the City's plan to slow all car traffic is unrealistic,\u201d the board wrote. \u201cWe need to identify the streets where the cars can move, rather than idle.\u201d\n\u201cAt a time when traffic congestion is one of the primary concerns of residents, it seems unacceptable for our city's Land Use and \u2018Circulation\u2019 Element to continue to omit a comprehensive circulation plan,\u201d the board said.\nCity Manager Rick Cole told The Lookout that vehicles continue to be part of the City\u2019s planning process.\n\u201cCities, including this one, have spent the last fifty years organizing our streets, parking and land use policies around automobiles and we still do,\u201d he said.\nCole cited the City\u2019s \u201cGo with the Flow\u201d program. Started last summer, it boosts the number of traffic officers and other staff to reduce back-ups and other congestion from Memorial Day to Labor Day, every weekend and holiday.\nIn addition, signs are posted at major routes into town notifying drivers which lots have available spaces.\nSanta Monica is notorious for gridlock, both on major thoroughfares like Lincoln Boulevard and in its popular downtown, and the City has spent decades preparing for a far-less car-centric future.\nIn the City\u2019s new model of mobility, the congested downtown and other parts of the city are redesigned to be more enticing -- and safer -- for those willing to forgo cars and take the Metro Light Rail (which opened in May of 2016) or walk and bike to their destinations.\nSidewalks are being widened, crosswalks improved and multiplied and medians added in some areas (like Lincoln) to calm traffic. The City\u2019s Bike Plan, adopted in 2011, is being updated.\nWork on the plans is being accelerated in the wake of new statistics showing high rates of injuries to walkers and bicyclists from vehicles, including five pedestrian deaths in as many weeks this spring (\"Pedestrian Killed Crossing Santa Monica Boulevard,\" April 4, 2017).\nThe council is poised to hire a safe-streets \u201cczar\u201d to oversee the work as well as enforce its \u201cVision Zero\u201d policy (\"Santa Monica City Council Calls for Safe Streets 'Czar,'\u201d May 11, 2017).\nSo far, the success of its years-old alternative transportation campaign has been limited. The Light Rail line has healthy ridership, although the municipal bus system is still fighting six years of declining passenger numbers (\"Expo Line to Santa Monica Marks First Birthday with Big Ridership Boost,\" May 18, 2017)).\nA study by outside consultants showed residents overwhelming prepared to use their cars (\"Study Finds Santa Monica Residents Still Sticking to Cars,\" March 7, 2017).\nIn its letter, the Sunset Park Board cautioned that the City is not fully cognizant of the impact on safety of not paying more attention to vehicles.\n\u201cWe believe that the City's focus on multi-modal transportation is dangerous, and there are studies around the world to support the use of dedicated and segregated bike lanes, rather than sharing the road, as is the current situation in much of Santa Monica,\u201d the board wrote.\nThe organization is asking the City to fund a motor vehicle comprehensive traffic circulation plan.\n\u201cWhen traffic on all thoroughfares is purposely slowed, it is only human nature that drivers would seek relief by diverting into neighborhood residential streets in an effort to find a path of lesser resistance,\u201d the board said.\n\u201cWithout the benefit of a Motor Vehicle Action Plan, we are not making fully informed decisions on the bicycle and pedestrian plan. It is an inefficient and wasteful use of public dollars to design and implement bike and pedestrian plans that do not coordinate with a motor vehicle plan.\"\nCity officials did not seem swayed.\n\"Drivers have been kings of the road in Southern California for all of our lifetimes, and yielding pavement to shared uses comes hard,\u201d City Council Member Kevin McKeown wrote in an email to The Lookout.\n\u201cThe reason we don\u2019t have a \u2018Motor Vehicle Plan\u2019 is that for close to a hundred years, transportation in Southern California has BEEN a \u2018Motor Vehicle Plan.\u2019\u201d\nCole, too, remained firm on the move to multi-modality, a theme picking up stream in different parts of the country, including the City of Los Angeles, as concern about pollution, gridlock and climate change become more dominant.\nSanta Monica (and other cities) \u201chave belatedly begun to also pay attention to pedestrians, bike riders and transit users,\u201d Cole wrote in an email. \"Before those who were too poor, too young, disabled or who choose other modes were an after-thought if they received any thought at all.\n\u201cThe City\u2019s current policies are ultimately about serving people, not bikes, cars or buses. All people are all pedestrians, many choose bikes (whether for work or recreation) and many rely on public transit,\" he said.\n\"Making Santa Monica less safe to speed traffic will not solve traffic woes,\u201d Cole said. \u201cSanta Monica is certainly not alone in experiencing traffic congestion and there are no magic answers for solving it.\u201d",

        "title": "Michael Schumacher Omega Speedmaster Vintage Watches - Swiss Classic Watches",
        "raw_content": "Michael Schumacher Omega Speedmaster Vintage Watches\nAmong fans of Formula One, the name Michael Schumacher is spoken in hushed, reverent tones, for it belongs to a man who, even in this modern age of hyperbole, can rightfully be called a racing legend and,possibly, the greatest driver of all time.\nActive from 1991 to 2006 and again from 2010 to 2012, the German driver won seven Formula One (F1) World Championships, holds the record for most victories (91), and in 2002 became the only driver in F1 history to finish in the top three in every race in a season (breaking the record for most consecutive podium finishes concurrently), among other accomplishments. It is unsurprising,hence, that he was approached by Omega to become a brand ambassador for the Swiss watchmaker, lending his name and influence to a series of special editions of their iconic Speedmaster lineup.Even though no longer produced, fans of the series will find that on the second-hand market, these watches represent excellent value compared to other lines of used Omega Speedmaster watches and are an excellent way to combine two passions into one: racing and watches.\nIn 1996, the first version of the Omega Speedmaster Schumacher was revealed by Mr. Schumacher at his go-kart track in Kerpen, Germany. It came with a choice of either a red or yellow dial (celebrating Mr. Schumacher\u2019s first year driving for Ferrari) and a choice of either a red or yellow leather strap or stainless steel bracelet. The case measured 42mm with the crown and 39mm without (this sizing remains consistent throughout the editions). Interestingly, the movement\u2019s serial number was stamped on the outside of the rear cover and not on the movement itself.\nFollowing the first Omega Speedmaster Schumacher came the Omega Speedmaster Racing Schumacher World Champion 2000 Limited Edition. This watch was numbered and limited to 10,000 pieces, of which 6,000 had a black dial and 4,000 had a white dial. The watch featured the word \u201cRacing\u201d above the sub-dial at the six o\u2019clock position and had red and orange checkered markings around the outside of the dial. It too had a snapback case,nevertheless unlike the previous edition, did bear Mr. Schumacher\u2019s name, which was engraved into the back of the case along with his signature and the production number. It came with an option of either a stainless steel bracelet or black leather strap and had an Omega 3220 movement.\nNamed the Omega Speedmaster World Champion 2002 Schumacher Limited Edition, this edition was numbered and limited to 5,555 pieces. It featured a sapphire crystal and a carbon fiber dial and the word \u201cRacing\u201d appears below Omega branding text at the three o\u2019clock position on the dial. The watch had an Omega 1151 automatic movement and was most famous for its day wheel. Monday through Saturday were displayed on white backgrounds,nonetheless Sunday, aka race day, was red. A reminder for any forgetful fans that it was time to tune in to the day\u2019s pageantry.\nIn 2002, Mr. Schumacher won his fifth world championship, tying the record of Argentinian racing legend Juan-Manuel Fangio whose last world championship came in 1957, a full 46 years earlier. The Omega Speedmaster Broad Arrow Michael Schumacher, cased in 18kt rose gold with choice of matching bracelet or black leather strap, honored this achievement in 2003. Engraved into the case was \u201cMichael Schumacher \u2013 Five-Times World Champion.\u201d It had a black dial and sapphire crystal and featured the Omega 3303 automatic movement. This was the first watch to feature Mr. Schumacher\u2019s name on the dial itself, a fitting rise for prominence on the watch that was mirrored by his racing career.\nWith Mr. Schumacher\u2019s final title came the final Schumacher Speedmaster, the Omega Speedmaster Legend Limited Edition.With ease,the watch is distinguished from the rest with its first seven hour markers being taken place of numerals, counting up the number of titles won, all set on a subtly checkered carbon fiber dial. It is powered by an Omega 3313 movement and features a crystal display back, allowing easy viewing of the heartbeat inside. Around the bezel are listed all of Mr. Schumacher\u2019s accomplishments: seven world titles, 250 F1 races, 68 pole positions, 91 victories, and 154 podiums. A well thought out and classic tribute to the legend.\nIf the volume available is low, one highlight in regards to buying these watches on the second-hand market is that compared to other series in the Omega Speedmaster line, the Michael Schumacher series sells on the low end. The average price from December 2014 through March 2015 was $1,495.11, with a high of $1,999.00, a low of $1,112.00, and a median of $1,635.00.\nThis is able to be compared to the Omega Speedmaster Professional, which has an average total cost of $1,927.06 and the Omega Speedmaster Olympic series, which has an average total cost of $2,327.67. As far as country of origin, 57% of the Michael Schumacher series Omega Speedmasters were sold by sellers from the United States. Interestingly, the remaining 43% were sold from sellers based in Japan, a testament to the combined global reach of the Swiss giant and the racing legend.",

        "raw_content": "It was reported in the Washington Business Journal last week that Vornado, which owns four parcels at the northwest corner of M and South Capitol streets would prefer to be a part of the Capitol Riverfront BID instead of the budding SW BID. This news was revealed at a DC Council hearing on the legislation that would create the SW BID. The current western boundary of the Capitol Riverfront BID is the east side of South Capitol Street, but according to the article:\nFor the purposes of marketing, corridor planning, trash removal, security and installation of banners, it makes sense for one BID to oversee both sides of South Capitol Street, Vornado\u2019s vice president of development, Gordon Fraley, told the council in a letter submitted for the record. It\u2019s why Vornado is asking its M Street parcels to be annexed by the Capitol Riverfront Business Improvement District.\nA Vornado parcel before it was demolished & replaced with a parking lot.\n\u201cWith major development poised to continue at Waterfront Station and begin at The Wharf, the Southwest BID needs to focus on these locations and not be distracted by development at its periphery along South Capitol Street,\u201d Fraley said.\nAlthough the same thing could be said about the Capitol Riverfront BID, which has major development at The Yards, the DC United stadium in Buzzard Point, Capper Carrollsburg's Hope VI project, and other parcels. When the Capitol Riverfront BID was originally formed, was it not anticipated that there would be development eventually on the Southwest side of South Capitol Street? Would the Randall Recreation Center, Captiol Skyline Hotel, and the Ruben Companies parcels also be annexed by the Capitol Riverfront BID? What about the area of South Capitol Street south of M Street? Is Half Street a better boundary for the BIDs than South Capitol Street?\nThe Mandarin Oriental Hotel is part of The Portals complex.\nIn addition, the owners of The Portals project at 12th Street and Maryland Avenue do not want to be part of the SW BID, since the owners already maintain the streets and plaza within the development, along with landscaping, street cleaning, and other services that a BID normally performs. We'll see how this all gets resolved...\nLabels: 12th Street, 1345 South Capitol Street, Capitol Riverfront, Half Street, M Street, Maryland Avenue, South Capitol Street, SW BID, The Portals, Vornado",

Breathing apparatus wearers entered the building to extinguish the fire before clearing the smoke using positive pressure ventilation.\nAfter the incident was dealt with, and the occupant had been given treatment by paramedics, it emerged that this fire had started when the flame from a candle, which was on a windowsill, spread to a set of window blinds. Crews also noted that there were no smoke alarms in the property and installed two before leaving.\nFollowing the incident the service is re-iterating its safety advice regards candles, and smoke alarms:\nWorking smoke alarms provide early warning when fire hits. Buy them, fit them to every level of your home and test them weekly. It only takes two minutes.\nIt is safer to use battery operated candles, but if you are going to use wax ones they should be kept well away from curtains, clothes and other flammable materials. They should also be kept out of reach of children and pets, placed on a heat resistant surface and carefully extinguished before you go to bed.",

I just saw the Halloween show on Friday night, which was fantastic. The setlist was the same as the recent postings that include \"Air\" and \"Burning Down the House.\" I was only planning on going to one show this tour for money reasons, but after seeing/hearing all of the great old TH songs - and all of the great new material, which I thought was really just as good (but different) - I'm think that I will make the drive to New Bedford and spring the $ for the show. I'm just wondering if there might be anyone out there that ended up with an extra ticket in a decent location that might be able to help me out. I might still spring for the remaining seats in the back, but I'd appreciate the help if anyone has an extra closer up. Either way, enjoy the shows!",

So too we must expect to be treated like Him if we believe in Him, but most often we are wrought with fear - fear of suffering and the Cross:\nFEAR - Part III, #10\nIndulgenced Prayer Before a Crucifix\nBEHOLD, O good and sweetest Jesus, I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight, and with the most fervent de sire of my soul I pray and beseech Thee to impress upon my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope and charity, with true repentance for my sins and a most firm desire of amendment: whilst with deep affection and grief of soul I consider within myself and mentally contemplate Thy five most precious Wounds, having before mine eyes that which David, the prophet, long ago spoke in Thine own person concerning Thee, my Jesus: They have pierced my hands and my feet, they have numbered all my bones.

Then God the Father split the earth, and those who blasphemed Him and those who were so righteous in the church were faced with the Truth. ...The Truth will come with the Triumph of His Cross, as it did in the past and all the way through to current times. Those of you who have been devoted and loving and not presumptuous of your final fate, but humble and prayerful, and vigilant, will be able to welcome in a new era, fully trusting in God Who is all-merciful and all-glorious!

You cannot have one without the other\u2026. The transition from the \u2018child' to your \u2018crucified' Savior was the transition from life (as you know it) to the death of sin and to eternal life. The Child Jesus renewed the world in the hope of God's Truth with the invitation for all people to live in purity and innocence without self-seeking ways or the ways of malice, hatred and violence\u2026. This time in history seems like much has been lost\u2026\u201d (OLOE Public 09-14-02)\nNovena to St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcina\nJoin us as we pray this 9-day Novena Prayer for the miraculous unfolding of Our Lady\u2019s Plan here at the Center of her Immaculate Heart and throughout the whole world:\nFeast of Our Lady of Sorrows - September 15\nNo one knows better than Our Lord Himself the sorrow that His Mother has carried throughout her life. In His Lessons to the world, He has said:\n\u201c\u2026My Mother has lived the sorrows you bear and, because of this, you should always call on her in your time of need. She is your Mother and patron, who shall comfort you during your sorrow... She is most powerful as your Mother of Sorrows, because she has experienced your sorrows. In your sorrow you are bonded to her Immaculate Heart, and her tears for your sorrows purify you. I tell you, the sword that pierces your hearts has pierced My Mother's Heart before your sorrow was betrothed to you! ...The sword may pierce your heart, but the edge has been dulled, because it first pierced My Mother's Heart before your own\u2026.\u201d (JOM, Vol II, #1, 09-15-89, Mother of Sorrows)\nThe Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows...\nRosary of the Seven Sorrows of Mary...\nLitany of Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows...\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on the feast of Sorrows?\n\u201cPlease remember, little ones, before the sword struck you, it first pierced my Immaculate Heart. A mother does not allow her children to suffer alone, for a mother who loves shares in that sorrow of her children\u2026. Offer all your suffering for purity, peace and charity in the world\u2026. Pray that you be open to the Truth outlined by my Son and be able to decide for God, whatever the cost. Only then can your sorrow turn into joy\u2026.

It truly was horrific! After His Death, my life was very much one of being alone.\u201d (OLOE Private 09-15-08)\nIn today\u2019s first liturgical reading from the Book Isaiah on this 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we hear the confident and faithful prophet boldly proclaim:\n\u201cThe Lord GOD opens my ear that I may hear;....\nIt is that same confidence and faithfulness that God asks of all who truly desire to live in His Divine Will, and that particularly pertains to those who have heard and have been called to carry the message of Our Lady of Emmitsburg to this country and the world. Then what is the problem: FEAR! Let us recall what God the Father in His Words to the world, Our Lord Jesus Christ in His Lessons and Our Lady of Emmitsburg in her Messages have shared with us regarding the fear of defending God\u2019s Truth, the fear of Rejection and the fear of failure:\nFear, Part 4: Fear of Defending God\u2019s Truth, Rejection and Failure\nFeast of St. Robert Bellarmine - September 17\nItalian Bishop and Doctor of the Church\n\u201cWhen we appeal to the throne of grace, we do so through Mary, honoring God by honoring His Mother, imitating Him by exalting her, touching the most responsive chord in the Sacred Heart of Christ with the sweet name of Mary.\u201d (St. Robert Bellarmine, 1542-1621)\nSt. Robert was indeed one of the great thinkers of the middle ages, whose evident beneficial influence had positive contributions in the much later American revolutionary period, especially as regards human rights and the role and powers of government and the governed peoples:\nSt. Robert Bellarmine's Influence on the\nWriting of the Declaration of Independence & Virginia Declaration of Rights...\nWhat has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on the great St. Robert's feast day?\n\u201cIn other places in the world, my priests through their upbringing are more open to receive these graces from God; but here, though on \u2018Satan's turf,'as I once before called this country (OLOE Private 01-30-04), in the most powerful nation in there world, there are Bishops fighting against not only this current Pope, but previous Popes, and fighting for eminency in what to do and to be, and leading people in a different way.\" (OLOE Public 05-30-96)\n\"I am not leaving,\nto save this country!\u201d",

        "raw_content": "1,000 Christians and 1,000 Muslims\nBy Arthur L. Smith\nOn September 18, 2011, Northwood Church in Keller, Texas hosted an event where 1,000 Christians and 1,000 Muslims came together to embark on societal change. \u201cThe only hope we have to tone down our fear of Muslims and the only thing Jesus commands us to do is love \u2013 it\u2019s done by engaging others,\u201d says Bob Roberts, Jr., Senior Pastor at Northwood Church.\nThe United States faces profound issues related to poverty, education and social injustice that cannot be solved by government programmes and policies alone. People of faith must come together to work out solutions to our common problems. Specifically, evangelical Christian churches in the United States must embrace people of other faiths and must willingly and actively engage in meaningful dialogue in order to tackle the common problems within our society. Evangelical churches have long been at the forefront of social programmes, but an even greater need has arisen in the 21st century which calls for a joint effort between the faiths.\nAlthough this may appear to some an unlikely pairing, with over two billion Christians and over 1.5 billion Muslims, the two groups account for over half of the world\u2019s population. By combining our resources, Muslims and evangelicals can impact our society in a personal and powerful way.\nBy coming together the two faiths began a grassroots campaign in which Muslims and Christians will work together on projects that will benefit the community. For example, the Embrace Group \u2013 which originally formed to teach one another traditional cooking \u2013 has transformed into a service group that serves lunch at the local Senior Center. Also, three multi-faith mini-makeover teams, consisting of five Jews, five Muslims and five Christians each, worked on homes near each congregation which included home repair, painting and landscaping for needy families.\n\u201cThe purpose of interfaith gathering is to rid ourselves of the ignorance of others [and to] work together for the common good,\u201d said Azhar Azeez, Vice President of the Islamic Society of North America.\nNorthwood Church was founded in 1985 and has a current active membership of over 2,500. Located in Keller, Texas, Northwood Church reaches out to its community through local ministries targeted toward inner-city children and youth, as well as the global community in places such as Mexico and Vietnam. Northwood Church has been at the forefront of fostering relationships with peoples of different faiths.\nFor example, in November of 2010, hundreds of people from all walks of faith and social standing converged on Northwood Church to dialogue about such topics as religious tolerance and social responsibility. The three-day multi-faith conference, sponsored by Northwood Church and embraced by its congregation, was the first of its kind where Muslims, Christians, Jews and others openly discussed issues of relevance to our common society.\nThrough these interfaith discussions and social gatherings, Northwood has begun to break down perceived barriers, and its congregants and staff have begun to see the commonalities between the two faiths. Christian and Muslim worshippers have come to understand that a difference in faith does not mean a difference in values. Both faiths consist of moral people who value education, religious tolerance and strong families.\nIf the average American could understand this very point \u2014 the similarities that exist between evangelicals and Muslims \u2014 he or she would come away with a renewed sense of religious tolerance. The common values shared by both faiths should give us a desire for an open dialogue on how we can bolster our resources to help fight social problems. What was learned from these discussions between the faiths on 18 September will help to find ways to affect real change in our society through collaborative action.\nI encourage you to be a part of standing together for change in your own communities. Social responsibility begins with a joint effort and a common goal: to better our society. The upcoming projects planned by the two faiths will allow the common worshipper to engage society in a meaningful and productive way.\nArthur L. Smith is a member of Northwood Church. He is also a teacher and writer who blogs about faith, family and writing at www.arthurlsmith.com.",

        "title": "The Christian Message: Christ Apparently Lacked Some (Supposed) \u201cPeople Skills\u201d",
        "raw_content": "Christ Apparently Lacked Some (Supposed) \u201cPeople Skills\u201d\nA pic from the Mel Gibson movie, \"The Passion of\nthe Christ.\" Jesus was [is] the most famous person\nof all history. Because He was God in human flesh,\nHe was perfect. So, why didn't Christ's \"people\ncommunication skill\" reap a better \"benefit\" than\nHim ending up being nailed to a Roman cross?\nPlease read the entire message to find out why.\nOne of the classic books of the 20th Century, was the popular \u201cHow To Win Friends And Influence People.\u201d Its author, Dale Carnegie, laid out some interesting principles of human communication. Even today, this book, first published in 1936, is considered to be a premier self-help book, which, if thoroughly \u201cdigested,\u201d will go a long way to enhance any individual\u2019s \u201cpeople skills.\u201d\nI have often thought that if any person would have had the perfect ability to \u201cwin friends and influence people,\u201d it would be Christ. The historic New Testament Gospels are recorded testimonies to that fact. Christ was most popular \u2013- the miracles and all the healings; and, not to forget, all His teachings, which amazed everyone who heard Him. Conversely, though, that people popularity that began with Christ\u2019s ministry, began to swiftly crumble and, everything turned gruesomely bitter, which culminated in terminating Christ's short life, with crucifiction.\nWhat was it, that finally did Christ in? I know what the Scriptures say, and, I accept its Word, as the explanation. But I was curious as to whether Christ would pass a modern \u201cHuman Communications Course\u201d as pioneered by the likes of Dale Carnegie. I grabbed Dale Carnegie\u2019s book from my shelf and began reading:\nWhat are the six ways of making people like you?\nWhat are the twelve ways of winning people to your way of thinking?\nWhat are the nine ways to change people without giving offense or arousing resentment?\nI didn\u2019t re-read the book. Rather, I looked at the 3 lists to the above 3 questions, and, for the most part, had to admit, that Christ had naturally practiced all these \u201cprinciples.\u201d I say \u2013 for the most part!\nI counted 27 Rules laid out by Carnegie \u2013 but as I continued to think about them, I had to quickly admit that Christ \u201cfailed\u201d miserably in the practice of some of these \u201cpeople skill\u201d communication principles. Following is a short list \u2013 and, how Christ, miserably \u201cfailed.\u201d\nWhy Christ Eventually \"Failed\" to be Humanly Popular\nViolation of Rule # 5: (Six Ways To Make People Like You): Talk in terms of the other man\u2019s interest.\nViolation of Rule # 2: (Twelve Ways To Win People To Your Way Of Thinking): Show respect for the other man\u2019s opinions. Never tell a man he is wrong.\nViolation # 9: (Twelve Ways To Win People To Your Way Of Thinking): Be sympathetic with the other person\u2019s ideas and desires.\nViolation # 2: (Nine Ways To Change People Without Giving Offense Or Arousing Resentment): Call attention to people\u2019s mistakes indirectly.\nDo you recognize a common thread among these aforementioned four communication skills and Christ's \"failure\" to observe them? Read the Gospels and you will be quick to note the run-ins and conflicts that Christ encountered with the very race and religion of people with whom He lived.\nChrist obviously violated these Carnegie human communication skills because He was on a mission. His whole life, from birth until death, was a life that was, \u201cTheocentric.\u201d He did nothing to please Himself or selfishly cater to His creature comforts. His stated purpose was to fulfill His heavenly Father\u2019s mission and destiny \u2013 being both God\u2019s, [His Divine Father\u2019s] spokesman and ultimate sacrifice:\nJohn 4:34 ; John 5:10 ; John 5:19 ; John 5:30 ; John 6.38 ; John 8:28 ; John 8:42 ; John 8:50 ; John 14:10 ; John 17:4 ; John 12:20-50\nThe Reason that Humanity (in general) Will Not Accept Christ\u2019s Life, Mission and Message\nIn the Gospel of John 5:1f Christ makes the comment to the unbelieving crowd: \u201cYou search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.\u201d John 5:39-40\nGod, the Creator, set apart humanity from the animal world, giving mankind special abilities and talents. He gave humanity the most prized possession of \u201cfree moral agency.\u201d People will come up with all kinds of excuses for not taking Christ at His Words \u2013 even to the point of denying their intellectual faculties when presented with the historical evidences and rationale for the Christian Faith. It isn\u2019t a matter of being intellectually persuaded. It is a matter of the \u201cwill.\u201d\nWhen the sinless Christ confronted the people of His day with their sins \u2013 He did it directly. He met stubborn resistance. Sinners do not like to be told, that they are damnable sinners. Christ, not only talked about heaven, but more often He related about the place of the damned. He made \u201cno bones\u201d about confronting people with their sins \u2013 and it was for this, that His popularity speedily waned.\nBut what was the ultimate reason that Christ was \u201cdone in?\u201d Read the Gospel of John 5:1f \u2013 specifically, John 5:15-18. By not willing to accept Christ\u2019s Authority and accept and believe in Him for who He said He was (and is), people make the gravest of mistakes. Remember that I said that Christ\u2019s purpose, life and mission was, \u201ctheocentric?\u201d The damning trouble with humanity is, that, humanity is basically, \u201chomocentric.\u201d [\u201chomo,\u201d the Latin for \u201cman,\u201d or \u201cmankind,\u201d and \u201ccentric,\u201d -- \u201cself\u201d as opposed to \u201ctheo\u201d (God) \u201ccentric\u201d (centered)]\nIt does not take Einstein type brains to figure out why people will stop short of worshipping Jesus Christ as Savior from their sins and ultimate Lord of their lives. People, (in general) are so self-centered and so self absorbed, that they will not submit to anyone higher than themselves.\nFriend, is this the case with you? Are you, as the late Francis Shaffer, stated, the \u201cmeasure of yourself?\u201d Can you not bring yourself to look outside yourself? Are you incapable or just stubbornly refusing to be confronted with the ultimate and eternal sayings of Jesus Christ? Is His birth, life, death, burial and Resurrection from the dead meaningless to you? Why would you accept common (pseudo-scientific) theories like \"evolution,\" of which there are no genealogical historical records, but cannot bring yourself to recognize the historical documents of Scripture?\nFriend, I encourage you, as a Christian, and Christian emeritus pastor, to realize your deplorable human condition of sin. Turn from your sins which prevent you from willfully recognizing the truth of Christ and His Words. Make it your highest priority to expose yourself to Christ and His Words. Do not turn away from them. Embrace both Christ and His Words:\n\u201cHe who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.\u201d (Gospel of John 3:36) Also see: Gospel of Matthew 7:13-27\nProverbs 6:23 ; Proverbs 8:33 and Isaiah 45:24 \u2013 also Isaiah 53:1f \u2013 Christ\u2019s purpose and mission prophesied hundreds of years before His birth\nGospel of John 5:1f \u2013 which includes Christ\u2019s confrontation with unbelieving religious leaders\nEpistle of 2 Thessalonians 1:1f \u2013 the comforting knowledge by Christ\u2019s followers, of His future 2nd Coming and Judgment\nJohn 15:19 ; Luke 6:26 ; James 4:4 ; 1 John 2:15-17 ; Romans 12:1-2\nA Simple Excercise:\nMatch the Following Christ (Carnegie) \u201cViolations\u201d With the Following Scriptures\nLuke 9:57-62 ; Luke 11:29-54 ; John 10:1-39\nTalk in terms of the other man\u2019s interest.\nShow respect for the other man\u2019s opinions. Never tell a man he is wrong.\nLabels: bible, Christ's message, Christ's mission, christian messages, Christianity, Dale Carnegie, people skills, popularity, topical messages\nThank u for this article :)\nPastor emeritus Nathan Bickel March 6, 2013 at 12:02 PM\nThank you.

        "raw_content": "One of my favorite movies is \u201cThe Informer.\u201d\nVictor McGlaglen, who is perhaps most famous for his role as Red Will Danaher in the St. Patrick\u2019s Day classic \u201cThe Quiet Man,\u201d won an Oscar as a drunken Jimbo Nolan, an IRA foot solider who spills the beans to the British Black and Tans about an IRA operation in exchange for some money to buy a few pints and present for his girl.\nBy the end of this Hollywood treatment, there is no doubt what will happen to Nolan, and you feel for the IRA Commanders who had to make the decision to kill one of their buddies or risk losing their own lives.\nBut real life is rarely as neat or as tidy as Hollywood would have you believe.\nThe decisions made by terrorist leaders are often blood-thirsty, driven by paranoia, and frequently tragically wrong. And that is especially true for the Irish Republican Army.\nIn all fairness, the British government didn\u2019t exactly distinguish itself in glory, and nor did the Protestant paramilitaries, who frequently committed their own despicable acts.\nThe Irish Peace Process is not an end-point. It is a process. And it hasn\u2019t been going as smoothly as many in America would like to believe.\nThe arrest of Sinn Fein Leader Gerry Adams won\u2019t help that process get better.\nAdams denies he had any involvement in the murder of a woman who the IRA thought was an informer decades ago.\nBut new revelations that have come from an oral history project conducted by Boston College have clouded those denials.\nApparently, a couple of those who were implicated in the murder of Jean McConville fingered Adams before they died. They told BC historians of their suspicions on the promise that those revelations would not come to light until after they died.\nUnfortunately for Gerry Adams, these revelations came amid an election campaign where his party is poised to do very well in the Republic of Ireland.\nIt is also unfortunate for Adams that he can\u2019t confront his accusers because they are dead.\nI don\u2019t know if Adams had anything to do with the brutal murder of McConville, nor do I have any direct evidence that the highest levels of the British Government had anything to do with the murder of Irish Catholic Civil Rights Lawyer Pat Finucane.\nBut there is more than enough evidence that both the IRA and the British Government committed more than their fair share of atrocities and that the truth of that dirty war will probably never be fully known.\nI also think that if the Irish Peace Process is to go forward, and if the Protestant and Catholic Communities in Northern Ireland are to continue to make progress in achieving a modicum of normalcy in a part of the world that is still potentially volatile, that a cheap political stunt like hauling Gerry Adams into a PSNI police station right before an election that could give Adams and his party a pretty big victory is counter-productive at best.\nPeter Robinson says that the PSNI is simply doing its job, but it\u2019s not doing much of a job of investigating the role of the unionist paramilitaries or of the roles of senior British officials in murdering innocent Catholic civil rights leaders.\nMarty McGuiness, the top Catholic political leader in the Northern Ireland government, says that there is a \u201cdark side\u201d within the policing community in Ulster.\nI don\u2019t think there is any doubt about that.\nThe Peace Process has its detractors on both sides of the divide. Both Catholic Nationalist and Protestant Unionist paramilitaries would be more than happy to return to the bad old days, when they had all of the power and the ability to extort and intimidate their neighbors and friends.\nI certainly hope that Northern Ireland doesn\u2019t return to the Troubles. This arrest of Gerry Adams isn\u2019t helpful to the success of the peace process. Not helpful at all.",

With more than nine miles of shoreline along scenic Lake Travis, Pace Bend is one of the most popular areas in the Highland Lakes region, offering visitors a wide range of recreational opportunities. The west side of the park features high, limestone cliffs and numerous rocky coves with some of the most impressive views available of Lake Travis, especially at sunset.\nVolente Beach has gotten a facelift and a new name. Shore Club Volente Beach or SCVB for short is located on the shores of Lake Travis and is the perfect getaway for children and adults alike on a hot summer day. We have pools for children and an adult only pool with a swim up tiki bar. We have our own sandy beachfront and 3 volleyball courts (2 lighted and 1 in the water). Although SCVB offers an upscale casual restaurant specializing in hand-cut steaks and fresh seafood and a beach bar & grill with the best burgers on the lake, picnics are permitted, so load up the cooler and come on out. We have plenty of options for the kids as well, including pizza and ice cream. Boat and wave runner rentals are also available.\nOne of the most isolated and untouched parks in Travis County, this peaceful 323-acre park lies on the north shore of Lake Travis near the community of Lago Vista and combines many of the best qualities of other Lake Travis parks. The parks\u2019 two miles of shoreline offer opportunities for hiking, fishing, camping, picnicking and lake access via an excellent boat ramp. Several inviting, shaded picnic and camping areas are situated along a bluff above a gently sloping, rocky waterfront.\nBob Wentz Park\nLocated in the basin area of Lake Travis in the scenic Hill Country of central Texas, Bob Wentz Park is a favorite location for water sports. The park\u2019s facilities and close proximity to Austin (approximately one-half hour\u2019s drive from downtown) make it attractive for picnicking, swimming, windsurfing, sailing, and scuba diving.\nAs its name suggests, Mansfield Dam Park is located adjacent to Mansfield Dam on the main body of Lake Travis and serves as one of the primary access points for boaters. Other popular attractions are picnicking, swimming, and sunbathing.\nHamilton Pool Preserve is a historic swimming hole which was designated a preserve by the Travis County Commissioner\u2019s Court in 1990. Located 3/4 mile upstream from its confluence with the Pedernales River, Hamilton Creek spills out over limestone outcroppings to create a 50 foot waterfall as it plunges into the head of a steep box canyon. The waterfall never completely dries up, but in dry times it does slow to a trickle. However, the pool\u2019s water level stays pretty constant, even during periods of drought.\nKrause Springs is a well-known camping & swimming site located in the beautiful Hill Country of Texas. It is located in Spicewood, Texas approximately 30 miles west of Austin. The 115 acre property is listed on the National Registry of Historical Sites and has been privately owned by the Krause Family for over 50 years. Krause Springs has many natural sites to explore. There are 32 springs on the property, and several feed the manmade pool and the natural pool which flows into Lake Travis.\nAll Travis County Parks\nA local area map with all parks located in Travis County.\nLake Travis Zip Line Adventures\nZipping across incredible Canyons and Lake Travis inlets, your Lake Travis Zipline experience offers unmatched Thrills and Chills!

Then either go with silence or send over a smiley face or a heart.\nI appreciate the many of you who have reached out to me over the last few weeks. I really do. It shows me how many lives I've touched and who has noticed my absence.\nWhat's happening now? My body is adjusting to new medication. When I was in the hospital I came off my old medication cold turkey with the thinking that ECT on top of adding new meds would help combat withdrawal. It actually worked. I wouldn't recommend going this route to anyone, however.\nI don't normally list medication names here but in this case I'm going to. I'm back on Lithium. The drug tends to work for me but it changes the way anything I put into my mouth tastes. Last night I sat down to a beautiful plate of spaghetti. It tasted like I was gargling a mouthful of pennies. Yum.\nI can't say that the Lithium and new antidepressant are working yet but it's still early. The waiting is the hardest.\nI'm seeing my new therapist on Tuesday.\nI have yet to see my psychiatrist since leaving the hospital.

I got used to it, but now that I'm not taking it anymore, I'm much happier about my sense of taste. I miss how well the med worked, but I had to stop it due to side effects. I'm wishing you the best on feeling better with the changes.\nHaving these mental illnesses forces us to live lives filled with indignities. It's humiliating and frustrating. The only way I can live this way is to humble myself. To get fulfillment from doing what I can for others, however little that may be. I still have to deal with the illness, but humility makes this somewhat easier. And I couldn't live this way without the help that God gives me. I have learned to look at my illness as evidence that the worlld has been corrupted by sin. Our bodies show this corruption in the physical, emotional, and mental problems we have. I know it's not our fault. God loves us. We just have to learn to live and love. Just follow Jesus if you want to learn to suffer and live and love.",

        "raw_content": "Seabourn's new Encore was introduced to the world at a festive evening ceremony pier side in Singapore January 7th, 2017, and we can't help gushing over the first cruise ship arrival of 2017.\nInternational recording artist and the world's best-selling soprano Sarah Brightman presided over the naming ceremony as Godmother of the new 600-guest ship, the first of two new all-suite vessels for the luxury, small-ship cruise line.\nGuests and VIPs joined Seabourn staff to enjoy the vibrant, entertainment-filled launch festivities as a projection screen showed the climactic moment when Brightman sent a bottle of champagne smashing against the bow of the ship, a time-honored ship christening tradition. A host of local musicians and cultural acts, including lion dancers and stilt walkers, energized the event to send the ship and her guests off in style.\nThe launch of Seabourn Encore marks the start of a new era of ultra-luxury cruising. It's the fourth all-suite vessel to join the Seabourn fleet and the first of two new ships to be designed by hospitality design icon Adam D. Tihany. The second, Seabourn Ovation, is currently under construction and is scheduled to launch in spring 2018.\nAll ships maintain some of the signature elements we love most about Seabourn: a high ratio of space per guest, enabling highly personalized service by close to one staff member for each guest on board, all-suite accommodations, Seabourn\u2019s signature water sports Marina, an open-bar policy serving premium wine, champagne and spirits, and renowned menus. With the addition of these two new ships, Seabourn will have the youngest and most modern ultra-luxury fleet in the world.\nIntended by Tihany \"to feel more like a luxury yacht,\" Seabourn Encore features modern design elements and innovations. Somehow, they manage to take our breath away, and still stay in keeping with Seabourn's understated elegance. The Encore has an additional deck and newly expanded public areas. New features include The Retreat, a secluded sanctuary for you to stretch out and relax in private cabanas, and Sushi, a one-of-a-kind dining destination found on no other ship in the Seabourn fleet.\nWith the inaugural voyage, Seabourn Encore is also marking the formal debut of several new onboard partner programs we've written about before: Spa and Wellness with Dr. Andrew Weil offers guests a holistic spa and wellness experience that integrates physical, social, environmental and spiritual well-being; a new production show, 'An Evening with Tim Rice', created exclusively for Seabourn will also have its debut on board in the ship's Grand Salon; and Seabourn Encore will also feature The Grill by Thomas Keller, a restaurant inspired by the classic American chophouse that first opened on Seabourn Quest last year. If you're not sailing on the Encore, you can still enjoy all three programs on other Seabourn ships; they'll be rolled out across the entire Seabourn fleet by 2018.\nFollowing the naming ceremony, Seabourn Encore departed on its Inaugural Voyage, the 10-day Gems of the Java Sea cruise, bound for Indonesia. The ship will then move on to Australia and New Zealand voyages, then cruise back to Singapore, on to Dubai, and cruise through the Holy Land before ending her winter season at Athens at the beginning of May. She will then summer in the Mediterranean, arriving in Barcelona, Spain, on September 13 for the start of her autumn season.\nA busy debut sailing season for one of luxury cruising's most highly anticipated new ships. Wishing the Seabourn Encore, and everyone who sails on her, Happy Voyages!\nTags: seabourn, cruise, ocean_cruise, luxury_cruise\nYou can reply to \"Introducing the Seabourn Encore\":\nI want to go to Singapore\nAsia $5,799.00",

There aren't three keys to maturity or five steps to spiritual growth.\nThere are, however, marks of a Christian who is growing in godliness and looking more like Jesus. At University Heights, we call those marks the One-Three-One, and we're serious about tailoring everything we do so that you can know Jesus and make him known. So, if you want to get connected, here's what we'll ask you to do.\nTHE ONE-THREE-ONE\nFirst, we insist that above everything you take seriously your relationship with God. Without spending time reading your Bible and praying, you will not hear from God or mature in your faith. Not only is this unloving to God, it is dangerous to you and those around you. If you need help getting started or would like new ways to approach your time with God, check out our suggested resources.\nSecond, you need to take seriously your relationship with fellow church members. This includes three things: regular worship of God together with others, being an active part of a small group, and finding a place to serve inside the church. Every one of these is vital in making University Heights feel like home to you. You can find information about worship times, small groups, and serving your church right here on our site.\nLastly, we want you to invest time in your relationships with the world and serve those who don't know Jesus. A heart and mind that loves God will naturally love others and want them to hear the gospel while having their needs met. You can find a whole list of ways to serve on our site.\nIf you have questions about getting connected that you can't find an answer to online, we'd love to help. Take a moment to fill out a Next Steps Card, and one of our staff members will be in touch with you shortly.\nCOMPLETE A NEXT STEP CARD\nHome |Get Connected | How to Connect",

Then simply show the text to your pharmacist and they will automatically apply the FamilyWize discount to the cost of your medicine. And you can help everyone you know by forwarding on the information.\nBy using FamilyWize, consumers can get medication prices close to those offered to large insurance companies and employers. Anyone can use the card, regardless of age, income, or employment level. While those who do not have health insurance will receive the biggest discount, others can also benefit. The FamilyWize card does not reduce the cost of medications for which you have a copay, but it may reduce the cost of medications not covered by your insurance.\nThere are still more than 80 million people in the United States, in every community, large and small, that have no health insurance or need help to buy prescription medicine not covered by their health plan. \u201cTechnology makes it possible for us to help a lot more people, much more quickly.\u201d said Dan Barnes, Chief Executive and Co-Chair of FamilyWize. \u201cIt\u2019s really incredible how cell phones, the Internet, Facebook and Twitter can make getting help so much easier and faster.\u201d\nYou may also click here to download and print a card or the new FamilyWize facebook page at www.facebook.com/familywize.\nUnited Way of Southeastern Connecticut and FamilyWize have already saved people living and working in New London County more than $1,000,000 since 2009 on the cost of their medicine. Nationwide, people have saved a total of more than $400,000,000! You can help spread the word by informing your family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers about this important and completely free assistance that can help struggling families meet the costs of living.\nThe FamilyWize Community Service Partnership was established in the fall of 2005 to help people get the medicine they need.. Today, more than 1,000 participating United Ways and America\u2019s Promise Alliance Partners in all 50 states coordinate the local distribution of the free FamilyWize prescription drug discount cards which lower the cost of medicine by up to 75% and make it more affordable.. By April 2012, the free FamilyWize cards have helped more than 4 million people save over $345 million. For more information, visit www.FamilyWize.org.",

        "raw_content": "The next Stamp Out Hunger food drive always takes place on the second Saturday each May!\nThe 300,000-member National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), which represents city delivery letter carriers in all 50 states and U.S. jurisdictions, conducts the world's largest one-day food drive each year on the second Saturday in May. Primary co-sponsors of the drive are the U.S. Postal Service, United Way, the AFL-CIO, and Feeding America.\nThe drive comes at a critical time when most food banks are experiencing depleted donations as food donated during the holiday seasons has diminished and just before demand increases due to the summer school break.\nStamp Out Hunger began in 1991 when the NALC, with the support of the U.S. Postal Service and the AFL-CIO, conducted a ten-city pilot program as a first step in developing a coordinated, same-day nationwide food drive. More than 290 tons of food were collected in those ten cities. The drive was not held in 1992 as plans were developed to expand the effort nationwide. In 1993, the drive expanded to 200 NALC branches in all 50 states, covering more than 1,000 communities. A record 12 million pounds of non-perishable food donations were collected by city carriers, with help from their rural carrier counterparts. In 1994, United Way Worldwide was invited to become a full partner in this effort. The drive has flourised ever since, expanding the number of cities and towns involved to more than 10,000.\nThe simplicity and efficiency of the drive are what make it work. It is held annually on the second Saturday in May and promoted in a variety of ways including the distribution of millions of postcards, delivered to homes in participating communities just prior to the drive to encourage donations. Food donations are collected by the letter carriers along their usual mail routes that Saturday, and all food collected is then delivered to a local food center for distribution by union volunteers.\nAll food donated in New London County benefits the Gemma E. Moran United Way/Labor Food Bank and its member food pantries.",

        "raw_content": "Finding the Roots of Peace\nLast Updated: 9/11/2018 11:40:40 AM | Deborah Sogge-Kermani, for the bicentennial committee of the Baha'is of the Flathead Indian Reservation\nThese are hard times, and though we are not subject to the violence of overt warfare in our little valley, a different kind of war is happening here. In Syria, Yemen, Palestine and so many other parts of the world, men, women, and children are being thrust into poverty, physically and emotionally maimed, and killed due to war. Here, also, we are being impoverished, wounded and killed, though it looks a little different: car accidents caused by substance abuse or stress, dislocation, and poverty due to domestic violence, prejudice, and economic injustice, and the violent deaths of our beloved children, our promising youths and despairing adults by suicide. How can we transform this war and suffering into peace and prosperity?\nI was moved to write about this subject by the story in a recent Valley Journal about the life and death of Jack Pierre. You see, my older brother, Alan, also died of suicide when he was just 20. I was 19. That was many decades ago. It still hurts. I still miss him. Like Jack, he was very bright and passionate though socially inept. He became a loner at school and was mercilessly bullied. Like Jack, he sought some relief in substance abuse, but it did not last. It never does. He, too, received a mental illness \u201cdiagnosis\u201d which did not lead to any real help and created prejudice in those around him.\nI had to stop reading the article when it came to the memorial service. It reminded me that my brother\u2019s body was quickly buried in an unmarked grave. There was no memorial service. I was overseas at the time, and, being a bit of a loner myself, was left to deal with my grief by myself. When I came home, no one in my family was willing or able to talk about his death or their feelings.\nWhen I finally read the rest of the article about Jack\u2019s beautiful memorial service and learned how his mother is working through her grief and supporting Jack\u2019s siblings in theirs, I felt very encouraged. It\u2019s time to talk about this.\nThe blessing that came out of my brother\u2019s passing was that my grief propelled me into a journey through all the religions of the world in search of peace and hope. Over the years of this search, I found that there were three sets of truths that are at the core of every religion, teachings that have provided enough peace for humanity to survive and advance for thousands of years. They can help us now.\nThe first consists of the spiritual realities, which radiate healing light at the very heart of every true religion. We call them virtues, such as truth, mercy, justice, faith and love. When practiced, they illumine our own hearts and promote peace in the world.\nThe second shared truth is the fundamental guide for our behavior in light of these virtues. In Christianity, this is called the Golden Rule: \u201cDo unto others as you would have them do unto you.\u201d In Buddhism, it reads \u201cHurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful.\u201d Judaism counsels, \u201cWhat is hateful to you, do not to your fellow man. That is the entire law; all the rest is commentary.\u201d Islam reiterates: \u201cNo one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself.\u201d The Baha\u2019i Writings proclaim, \u201cBlessed is he who preferreth his brother before himself.\u201d\nHow far our civilization has been and still is from this kind of behavior! Is there any hope for peace? Yes, there is! The third truth that is found in all the sacred scriptures of many indigenous spiritual traditions is a promise from our Creator that a time will come when, after unprecedented worldwide suffering and upheaval, a Great Peace will envelop the entire planet. Then, there will be such a flowering of human potential as the world has never seen.\nThere are many positive signs that we are moving towards this Great Peace. The article about Jack Pierre was one of them. Even though it is truly a grievous loss for all of us when a person chooses death because our society demands that he \u201cfit in\u201d and he cannot, now we are able to talk about it. We are learning to have compassion for others who are different, teaching our children to speak out against bullying and abuse, recognizing the poison of racism, and rising up for the equal rights of every member of the human family.\nThe United Nations is another hopeful example of this planetary movement towards peace. The UN General Assembly has designated Sept. 21 of each year as International Day of Peace. To celebrate our future of peace, and to explore ways to contribute to peace, the Bah\u00e1\u2019is of the Flathead Indian Reservation are sponsoring a community picnic on Sept 22. Please see the calendar section for details.\nRecognizing that \u201ca peaceful society is one where there is justice and equality for everyone,\u201d the United Nations Member States adopted the \u201c17 Sustainable Development Goals\u201d in 2015, which is a powerful vision combined with many practical suggestions to help us move forward towards peace for all people. You will find it at www.un.org/en/ events/peaceday/.\nPeace begins within each one of us. We can all water the roots of peace in ourselves, our community and the world in our own way each day. Have hope!",

The Board of Directors at Festningen 2011 does not find it financially viable to the go through with the planned festival. The decision has been made on the basis of low ticket sales after both the cancellation of the headliner Duran Duran and the terrorist attacks on July 22. The event has a capacity of 15,000 people with a very high production costs.\nThe original artists were Duran Duran, Primal Scream and Bryan Ferry. Unfortunately Duran Duran had to cancel their whole tour because of Simon Lebon's voice problems. We just had time to announce Robyn before the tragedy on July 22. Norway stood still for three weeks after this. Like everyone else we were shocked and the terrible terrorist attacks took the focus away from the positive experience a concert should be. Festningen 2011 are terribly sorry about the cancellation and especially wants to express its regret towards the fans of the artists who were supposed to play.\nShepherd's Bush Date\nThere has been some confusion over the Shepherd's Bush Empire date. The venue website shows 14th and Ticketmaster 15th December. I have had it confirmed that Bryan will appear at Shepherd's Bush Empire London on Wednesday 14th December 2011, tickets go on sale on Friday 30th September 2011",

        "title": "March 2018 at Wark Farm",
        "raw_content": "One of the main reasonsI gave up a perfectly sensible day job and career to farm at Wark was to have the freedom to experiment and try out new ideas for land management, particularly in farmland wildlife conservation. As a wildlife and countryside enthusiast ... re-phrase that, obsessive ... since my youngest years, huge amounts of my time and brain energy for over four decades has been spent in messing around in, participating in, reading and thinking about such things. While I enjoyed my years as a manager of other people lands, naturally they have their own objectives to meet and they don\u2019t always include freestyle wildlife encouragement. This farm is my place of work, it is my livelihood; I don\u2019t have another way of earning my daily bread. It\u2019s not just that though, it\u2019s also a place where I can risk my own time and money to try and make a piece of countryside sing, buzz, croak, rustle, hum and smell with an abundance of wildlife integrated into a commercial farm. Some I\u2019ve won, some I\u2019ve lost but overall I\u2019ve made progress from the days of a largely bare rye grass and wire fenced farm. I\u2019m not satisfied though; I could do better, this land could do better, for wildlife.\n2018 sees the start of a new 5 year conservation plan for the farm. Much of it is re-enforcing and building on the work of the past 15 years, laying and managing hedgerows, protecting water margins, connecting up wildlife corridors around the farm and continuing the management of wildflower grasslands as well as the sensitive management of our silage grasslands amongst other things. The big project of the coming five years though is an all out attempt to turn our wetland/wet grassland area at the core of the farm into a breeding and feeding factory for farmland wading birds. These birds (lapwing, oyster catcher, redshank, curlew) are in trouble. Their numbers are dwindling. We are lucky, we have some still. Small numbers, some years breeding successfully, sometimes not. They are birds evocative of the spring and summer in the open landscapes of the uplands but have lost many of their previous haunts to forestry, agricultural drainage and intensification. Since the day I arrived here I wanted to see lapwing breed successfully on the farm. They do, but erratically and in small numbers, vulnerable to failure. 13 years ago we began turning what once was wet, had been drained, into land that was wet again for these birds. It has helped a bit, now it\u2019s time to raise the game and with the help of a group of advisers, in an RSPB endorsed project, do all we can to give the birds what they need to do their thing. Controlling water, installing sluices, creating multiple pools and splashes, reducing rush density, managing rush re-growth and grass levels. Then doing it again. And keeping at it for the next 5 years. And monitoring what happens. Would you like to be part of it? I\u2019m putting in my time, money, land and enthusiasm - maybe you'd join me in helping fund some of the external costs so we can do all that has been recommended. If you would, we have a GoFundMe project set up with more information about and photos of the habitat, the species we are hoping to help and the work to be done so you can learn more and should you wish chip in. Be great if you do - everyone donating will be invited to a project open day once a year for a guided walk and talk about what\u2019s been done, happened and seen and what\u2019s to be done next including a thank you Wark Farm lunch to round things off, as well as regular email updates on happenings in the wetland. You can reach the project site here, please have a look and share around.\nOn to this months open days - we are open at the farm on Thursday 15th (10:30am - 4:30pm) for fridge browsing and order collection, we will be delivering on Friday 16th and will be at Banchory Farmers Market (9am - 1pm) on Saturday 17th. Building on our changes to the ordering system last month (changes to the form and including a copy of your order in acknowledgement emails) this month we will also be including a delivery note with orders which I hope will be useful as a reminder of what was ordered and noting any products which were out of stock or any substitutions we have made. I hope you will find this helpful, do let us know your experience and bear with us and keep us right through any glitches as we settle into the new system, thank you. This month we have our full range of four week hung Belted Galloway Beef, Hebridean lamb and our usual selection of pies and bacon. We don\u2019t have any chicken this month, many apologies for that, we hope to be up and running with a new supply of our slow grown free-ranging chicken again soon, sadly the fox intervened in our arrangements. We have an added product on the list that hasn\u2019t been there for a while - gammon steaks. I hope you enjoy their return this month.\nAs ever get in touch if you have any queries.",

John 1: 29 final part: Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. Reading these verses from the book of Leviticus, we understand that in this ritual, Aaron was doing the transfer of sin, note that before sacrificing the animal he imposed hands upon him and transferred to ello the sin of the people. And as we come these references carry us the Isaiah 53 that shows us that Jesus took upon himself all our iniquities, was pressed, but not opened his mouth and like lamb, he was taken to the matadoro. In Leviticus 16: 26 says that it will also wash with water your body, the animal was led out of the camp where their meat was washed in water. Worth repeating here a reference already quoted and that is the conclusion of the process of transfer of sins, John 1:29 says: I have here the Lamb of God, which REMOVES the sins of the world. At the time when Jesus approached John next to the Jordan River, I think John the you spotted from afar, and pointing to him I said to everyone that there were: I have here the Lamb of God, which REMOVES the sins of the world.\n\u00ab Belleza Cosmetica Natural\nBolivia Israel \u00bb",

Over 200 people across Wiltshire, Bath and North East Somerset and Swindon helped to shape the service which will support young people aged 0-18 years.\nNHS England is working with NHS Clinical Commissioners on a public consultation to reduce prescribing of over the counter medicines for minor, short-term health concerns. Drugs like paracetamol can cost the NHS up to three times more on prescription than if patients bought them directly from a supermarket. The results from the consultation will inform national guidance on how such drugs are available in the future. What are your thoughts on buying some medication over the counter? Share your views by completing the survey.\nOver the coming months we\u2019ll be focusing on cancer types and the common signs to look out for.\nIt\u2019s very easy to ignore symptoms and put off going to see your doctor, but if you are worried you should book an appointment with your doctor straight away.\nIt may not be anything serious, but if it is cancer it\u2019s important to find it early. See below for the campaigns we\u2019re highlighting in this edition.\nWhile Winter hasn\u2019t quite left us yet the days are gradually getting longer and the sun is starting to brighten up our skies \u2013 Spring is nearly here!\nNew service to support children and young people with their emotional wellbeing\nThe new Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) service starts on 1 April 2018 and will be delivered by Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust. The service be providing targeted and specialist mental health and wellbeing support to children and young people aged 0-18 years, which includes having timely access to an integrated system of co-ordinated and effective promotion, prevention, early intervention and community support and treatment.\nTed Wilson, Director of Community Services and Joint Commissioning for Wiltshire CCG said: \u201cWith valuable input from young people across Wiltshire, Bath and North East Somerset and Swindon we have commissioned a mental health service that will better suit their needs, be easier for them to access and will provide improved advice and support.\u201d\nNational Survey shows improvements in women\u2019s experiences of maternity care\nMost women are having a positive experience of maternity care and treatment with the NHS, according to a survey of more than 18,000 people in England.\nThe Care Quality Commission (CQC) survey results reveal responses from women who had given birth in February 2017 in services run by 130 NHS trusts across the country.\nWomen were asked questions about all aspects of their maternity care from the first time they saw a clinician or midwife, during labour and birth, through to the care provided at home in the weeks following the arrival of their baby. The results highlighted improvements in areas such as choice on where to give birth, quality of information and access to help and support after giving birth.\nThe full results for England as well as individual results for each trust are available on the CQC\u2019s website.\nFocus on cancer!\nMore than one in three people in England will develop some form of cancer during their lifetime.\nCancer can start almost anywhere in the human body, which is made up of trillions of cells. Normally cells grow and divide to form new cells when the body needs them. When cancer develops, old or damaged cells survive when they should die, and new cells form when they are not needed. These extra cells can divide without stopping and may form growths called tumours. These cancerous cells can invade and destroy surrounding healthy tissue, including organs.\nThere are more than 200 different types of cancer, and each one is diagnosed and treated in a particular way. The four most common types of cancer diagnosed in England are:\nIt is important to be aware of any unexplained changes to your body. If you notice any changes to your body\u2019s normal processes or unusual, unexplained symptoms \u2013 such as the sudden appearance of a lump, blood in your urine, or a change to your usual bowel habits, it\u2019s important to see your doctor so they can investigate. The chances are it is nothing serious, but it might be something that needs attention and if diagnosed earlier, treatment can be a lot more successful.\nClick here for more information on cancer and spotting the signs and symptoms.\nWe\u2019re helping to raise awareness of cancer, so keep an eye out for information on the following campaigns in the next few issues of \u2018in touch\u2019:\nIn the UK, about one in eight men will get prostate cancer at some point in their lives.\nOvarian cancer is the biggest gynaecological killer of UK women, as most women are diagnosed once the cancer has spread which makes treatment more challenging.\nBe clear on cancer \u2013 breast cancer in women over 70\nIn England, one in three women who get breast cancer are aged 70 or over.\nBreast cancer is the most common cancer in England with around 44,300 women diagnosed each year, of which around 13,500 (a third) are aged 70 and over. The older you are \u2013 the more likely you are to get it.\nThis campaign aims to get more women with breast cancer diagnosed at an early stage by raising awareness of the symptoms so it\u2019s important to get to know how your breasts look and feel normally, so that you will find it easier to spot something unusual.\nA lump isn\u2019t the only sign of breast cancer. If you do notice any changes to your breast you should make an appointment to see your doctor straight away. It might not be anything serious, but if it is, getting a diagnosis early can make a real difference.\nConditions for which over the counter items should not routinely be prescribed in primary care\nNHS England has launched a public consultation on reducing prescribing of over-the-counter medicines for 33 minor, short-term health concerns.\nFrom June 2016 until June 2017 the NHS spent approximately \u00a3569 million on prescriptions for medicines which could have been purchased over the counter from a pharmacy, or other outlets such as a supermarket.\nWhich lends itself to self-care, i.e. that the person suffering does not normally need to seek medical care but may decide to seek help with symptom relief from a local pharmacy and use an over the counter medicine\nNHS England has partnered with NHS Clinical Commissioners to carry out the consultation, which is intended to help produce a national framework for CCGs to use.\nThe consultation is seeking your views on the proposals and is open until 14 March 2018.\nKnow the signs of a stroke and act F.A.S.T.\nWe are encouraging you to learn the F.A.S.T. test to help you identify the early signs of a stroke and save more lives.\nThe F.A.S.T. test identifies the three most common symptoms of a stroke and the right action to take:\nFace: Can the person smile? Has their mouth or eye drooped?\nArms: Can the person raise both arms?\nSpeech: Can the person speak clearly and understand what you are saying?\nTime: call 999\nIf you recognise any single one of these symptoms of stroke, in yourself or others \u2013 CALL 999 straightaway. The sooner somebody who is having a stroke gets urgent medical attention, the better their chances of a good recovery.\nYour pharmacy team can help you with minor health concerns. Visit our website to find out where your nearest pharmacy is: http://www.wiltshireccg.nhs.uk/local-services/pharmacies\nCommunity pharmacists and pharmacy technicians are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice and over the counter medicines to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns.\nPharmacists are healthcare experts who can give you clinical advice, right there and then, and if your symptoms are more serious, they can ensure you get the help you need...\nPrevious PostPrevious National survey shows improvements in women\u2019s experiences of maternity care\nNext PostNext One in three women diagnosed with breast cancer each year are aged 70 or over",

        "raw_content": "Tony Draper, Dishonorable Mention\nWhen VH1 announced that this year\u2019s Hip-Hop Honors award show was going to pay homage to the dirty south, the greater rap community below the Mason-Dixon line seemed poised to get their just due. However, when the lineup of honorees was announced\u2014including such pioneers as Jermaine Dupri, J. Prince of Rap-A-Lot Records, 2 Live Crew, Organized Noize, and Master P\u2014some felt a few key names were missing from the lineup. Even Luther \u201cLuke\u201d Campbell, who\u2019ll be honored alongside his 2 Live Crew members, voiced his discontent with the show for limiting his tribute to music and not his business acumen as the first artist to own his own label.\nNow another trailblazing executive has come forward to express his disappointment with this year\u2019s Hip-Hop Honors. Founding the legendary Suave House Records at just 16 years old, Tony Draper has been a influential force in the music industry for over 20 years. Completely independent, the Houston-based mogul introduced the masses to the likes of 8Ball & MJG, Tela and former Geto Boy, Big Mike, selling millions of records and earning plaques along the way. Draper also used his keen business sense to help Cash Money secure their six-figure deal with Universal back in 1998, as well as stepping in to negotiate the Clipse\u2019s long-delayed release from Jive and was instrumental in Ice Cube\u2019s comeback album, Laugh Now, Cry Later, becoming the highest selling indie album of 2006, with 650,000 copies sold.\nAlthough Draper isn\u2019t as visible as some executives, it\u2019s clear that his behind-the-scenes work is right on par with his peers and friends that will grace the Hip-Hop Honors stage next month. XXLMag.com caught up with the industry vet to get his take on this year\u2019s awards and to get his thoughts on the game.\nXXLMag.com: What\u2019s at the root of your issues with being left off VH1\u2019s Hip-Hop Honors dirty south honorees?\nTony Draper: It\u2019s like I don\u2019t know how VH1 is putting their information together, but you\u2019re speaking on Southern music and you\u2019re speaking on the culture of Southern hip-hop and you\u2019re speaking on people that have influence\u2014the Rick Rosses, the Jeezys, the T.I.s and Ludacris\u2019s and all those guys. Then it goes in this order: there\u2019s Luke as the godfather, there\u2019s J. Prince as well as the godfather, then it comes me, Tony Draper. I started Suave House at 16 years old. I put together one-stop distributors and made nationwide distribution at a time when that was unheard of. When I first came to New York in \u201994, I did a distribution deal and kept ownership of all my masters. I was the first young Southern kid to own his masters as a teenager; nobody else was doing that. So when you speak on the culture of hip-hop, Southern hip-hop, then those guys they definitely looked up to big Luke, they definitely looked up to J. Prince, but they also looked up to Suave House\u2026 So when you mention Southern hip-hop and you don\u2019t mention Tony Draper then your facts is wrong.\nXXLMag.com: Have you spoken to anyone over at VH1 about being overlooked for your contributions to hip-hop?\nTony Draper: No. I feel like if you\u2019re doing an essay it\u2019s your business to get your facts together. It ain\u2019t my business to tell you your business. I know what I done and they supposed to honor that and respect the whole movement.\nXXLMag.com: Do you think it\u2019s just a matter of the South being such a big region and the show\u2019s producers not knowing everything being that they\u2019re based in New York?\nTony Draper: Being from the South we never had a opportunity, like the parent companies were based in New York and Los Angeles, so if you trying to get on it probably was easier for a East Coast rapper to get on\u2026 Coming from the South I didn\u2019t have that type a luxury and I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t have that type a luxury. My situation was I built my own.\nXXLMag.com: The same could be said for Luke, who came out recently with criticism of Hip-Hop Honors?\nTony Draper: When I heard VH1 didn\u2019t really wanna honor Luke for being a contributor I knew that they was totally off base \u2019cause Luke sold millions of records with 2 Live Crew, Luke did Poison Clan\u2026 Then, he came to Houston and got a group called H-Town. They sold millions a records, so that just shows me right there the facts ain\u2019t all the way on point.\nXXLMag.com: Aside from yourself, who else do you think needs to be honored from the dirty south?\nTony Draper: How you don\u2019t honor 8Ball & MJG? How you don\u2019t honor Three 6 Mafia? Three 6 Mafia came out with the crunk\u2026 Where\u2019s the boy Lil\u2019 Jon? ...Where's Cash Money? \u2026I think Ted Lucas is missing. He\u2019s an incredible executive. Coming out of Miami, Miami wasn\u2019t known for anything but Luke and then for Ted to come up with Trick Daddy and they did extremely big numbers\u2026 But there wouldn\u2019t be no Memphis hip-hop if it wasn\u2019t for myself, 8Ball & MJG, Three 6 Mafia, Tela, Gangsta Pat, these are just guys that paved the way. What I\u2019m sayin\u2019 is that sometimes we only really recognize the artist if they\u2019re getting real commercialized\u2014that\u2019s not the artist that the people in the South, those gutta, gangsta people in the South, be embracing\u2019\u2026 So for you not to recognize Tony Draper, it\u2019s a real slap in the face. It\u2019s a real slap in the face. And when you go to these ghettos in Atlanta, these ghettos in Memphis, these ghettos in Houston, these ghettos in Dallas, these ghettos in Louisiana, and you in Birmingham, and you ask them who you grew up listening to, most of them will say Suave House.\nXXLMag.com: Because a lot of your success has been independent and for the most part off the mainstream radar, a lot of people might know your name but not your accomplishments. Do you think that could be part of why you were overlooked?\nTony Draper: You know what, that\u2019s a true way to look at it, but you gotta understand something as well. The person that I am, I\u2019m not an animated man, I don\u2019t look for the attention, I don\u2019t wanna go to the parties and pop bottles and jump on tables. I don\u2019t do none a that \u2019cause I don\u2019t drink for one and I\u2019m not into buying 10, 12 bottles a champagne, I\u2019m not doing that. So at the end of the day I\u2019m gonna sit back and just do my work. Here\u2019s a prime example, when people was wondering what\u2019s Tony Draper is doing, well, I made a very incredible income off the catalog that I\u2019ve kept since I was a teenager and also, I was the point guard in \u201906 when Ice Cube went independent with Lynch Mob Records. He sold 600,000 copies independently and people act like the man didn\u2019t do that. He did that with Tony Draper involved in his business. \u2019Cause nobody else was selling records independently but me. So when me and my friend Cube hooked up and he said, \u201cMan, I want you to come join me and help me with my situation,\u201d it was an honor because I\u2019ve always been a fan but of course I knew the right moves my man had to make \u2019cause the music of course was gonna always be good.\nXXLMag.com: Do you plan on watching Hip-Hop Honors this year?\nTony Draper: Hell no! I\u2019m gonna tell you something, when I started Suave House there was no such thing as Southern hip-hop. I guess that came from an East Coast person\u2019s category of Southern hip-hip. Yeah, I\u2019m from the South but there wasn\u2019t a thing as \u201cSouthern hip-hop.\u201d When I started my company my whole thing was you had to be dope\u2014it ain\u2019t where you from, you just gotta be dope. Scarface and me was tighter than friends, he from the South but he wasn\u2019t just doing it for the South he was doing it for the world, and when I started Suave I was doing it for the world. So it wasn\u2019t a day where I\u2019m like I\u2019m just tryin\u2019 to cater to the South, no! I wanted it to be reached in L.A. I wanted it to be reached in New York. I wanted to be embraced by all sides \u2019cause I embraced all sides\u2026 People always say what happened to our music? What happened to our music is that it\u2019s the wrong people in power, that\u2019s what happened to our music.\nXXLMag.com: How do you think that\u2019ll affect the next generation of hip-hop fans?\nTony Draper: I look at the game and say you know, when you\u2019re speaking to young people sometimes a young person is very na\u00efve and they believe what they hear and they believe what they see. So if they see the dirty South VH1 honorees and don\u2019t see Tony Draper or Suave House, that\u2019s gonna paint a picture in their brain like, \u201cWow, maybe Tony didn\u2019t really do that much for the South,\u201d and in all honesty that\u2019s not true. I did wonders for the South\u2026\nXXLMag.com: What if VH1 turned around and decided to add you to the show. Would you accept?\nTony Draper: Well, if they turned around and said they wanna honor me that\u2019d be real false and fake \u2019cause I already know\u2026 I just think that it\u2019s an oversight but it\u2019s a bad oversight. VH1 might say, well, we really couldn\u2019t get everyone on the show. Well, that don\u2019t count with me \u2019cause the show starts with Luke then it goes to J. Prince and then it goes to me. \u2014Anslem Samuel\nFiled Under: 8Ball & MJG, cash money, Geto Boys, hip hop honors, Ice Cube, J.

        "title": "On Representation: Otto Hashmi, the Musician Blurring Boundaries - XXY Magazine",
        "raw_content": "As part of the \u2018Representation Issue\u2019, XXY wants to give this generation of young creatives a voice to speak for themselves about their work. Today we meet with Otto Hashmi; a musician currently based in London. Hashmi\u2019s work centres around the idea of blurring boundaries, through which he has created a surreal blend of modern trap and electronic with progressive influences. We spoke to him about the issue of representation.\nWhat does the word representation mean to you?\nI think representation is one of those things which is hard to give an exact definition. Coming from a multicultural area of North West London, I\u2019ve always been in an extremely mixed environment and have grown up surrounded by people from all walks of life. It\u2019s easy to forget that people aren\u2019t always exposed to this kind of environment, and that so many of these people aren\u2019t always given the same opportunities to make themselves seen and heard. For me, representation is about opening a dialogue, working towards breaking down the barriers caused by lack of opportunity and prejudice.\nThe way music and culture progress and develop over time fascinates me, as well as how individual genres come to life and coexist, often from places of hardship. Taking influence from the things I enjoy listening to and the culture that I engage with, and mixing it with elements of more complex music theory is honestly the best way to describe how my sound comes about! In terms of themes, my music at the moment tends to be very personal whilst remaining somewhat dark and cryptic. The past year has been a rollercoaster for me and I think this comes through in my recent music a lot more than perhaps I\u2019d like to admit to myself sometimes.\nAt the core of it, not really. I\u2019ve always been making things since I was little, so for me the creative process is something that often happens without much thought. I\u2019m always thinking about what purpose the music will serve once it\u2019s done and how to utilise it. At the moment all of my creative energy has been on my upcoming EP \u201cTurbo Island\u201d, which is looking close to completion and hopefully will be released later this summer.\nHow important is representation in music?\nI think representation is extremely important in music, and it\u2019s key to be aware of all the issues surrounding genres. For me taking influence from Hip Hop and early dance music, as well as the wider context of genres with African-American roots, you really need to be aware and sensitive of their history and cultural context. My goal is that my music comes across as something which has come from engagement with current culture and serves as an active homage to the roots of my influences, rather than as appropriation that takes from them without giving anything back.\nWhat is most important to you generally within music?\nI want to be engaged when I listen to new music, and I\u2019m always looking out for new sounds that I haven\u2019t heard before. Progression is what makes the arts great, and it can be frustrating to see people cling to yesterday\u2019s trends because they are what feel the most comfortable. As a teenager I was listening to lots of metal, harsh noise, and other generally intense stuff, but honestly I can\u2019t see much long term progression in that sort of thing nowadays, and overall with guitar music. That being said, I do occasionally find myself loving newer guitar centric music and surprising myself.\nI can\u2019t speak on behalf of underrepresented groups, but I\u2019d like to think music fairs somewhat well in being a representative medium, but to a much lesser extent as an industry. Struggles and frustrations tend to bring out some really exciting things creatively though. An example that comes to mind is Dizzee Rascal\u2019s \u201cBoy in da Corner\u201d (2003) which is one of my favourite albums and perfectly conveys issues of societal alienation and personal worries from Dizzy\u2019s point of view, particularly the track \u201cBrand New Day\u201d. The task at hand is for the music industry to provide more opportunities for these voices to be heard today, but with the industry\u2019s primary incentive of making profit, I think this is something that we\u2019ll be struggling with for a long time to come.\nFor me personally, there are a number of issues that I feel strongly about, however, I admit I\u2019m not always as active as I could be in highlighting them. Animal rights and a move away from animal products is something I feel is very important. Although I am aware many have strong opinions on the matter it just means a soft approach is needed to bring these issues into people\u2019s consciousness. It\u2019s not really something that comes out in my work and music, despite all the Morrissey comparisons people make!\nI think it takes a different approach for everyone! I\u2019m only 20 years old so I\u2019ve got a lot to learn and a lot of experience to gain about what the right approach is. I\u2019m sure I\u2019ve got a lot more mistakes to make along the way too. From what I\u2019ve seen, using your art\u2019s exposure as a vehicle to indirectly raise awareness, rather than the art\u2019s overall theme being to do with your activism, seems to be an approach that works for many. The inverse is also true though, with groups like Pussy Riot springing to mind. I guess I don\u2019t feel qualified enough to give a definite answer, but your gut feeling is never going to lie to you. Stay true to yourself no matter what!\nInterviewed by Ellie Connor-Phillips\nHeader by \u00c1frica Pombo\nYou can see Otto Hashmi\u2019s website here, or catch him headlining at Nambucca on the 11th of August.",

        "title": "YES, YOU CAN CHILL OUT WITH RED WINE - YAM MAGAZINE",
        "raw_content": "YES, YOU CAN CHILL OUT WITH RED WINE\nIt\u2019s no faux pas to put that red wine in the fridge. You may be amazed at how just a few degrees can really brighten up these wines and make them more pleasant on the palate in hot weather.\nSartorially speaking, it\u2019s OK to start wearing white after the May long weekend, but what if you don\u2019t necessarily want to drink white wine when the temperatures climb?\nTruthfully, while its not exactly gauche to enjoy a red wine in the summer, this may not be the most refreshing beverage for sipping on the patio. Red wines typically show their best at \u2018cellar\u2019 temp (16\u201318\u00b0C), so when the ambient temperature rises above that on a warm day, they can seem unbalanced. The alcohol is more up front and the overall mouthfeel just isn\u2019t as pleasant.\nBet on Red\nSo, what to do if you\u2019re a diehard \u2018red-head\u2019 and those big Syrahs, Cab Sauvs and Merlots just aren\u2019t doing it for you in the heat? Well, if you can\u2019t bear to give up your full-bodied reds, the first option is to give them a little chill in the fridge before serving.\n\u201cIf a red wine is at room temperature, typically around 20\u00b0 C, I\u2019ll pop it in the fridge for 30 minutes,\u201d wine journalist and accredited sommelier Treve Ring explains. \u201cYou can chill a bottle quicker by using an ice bucket filled with a mix of ice cubes and water.\u201d\nAnother option \u2014 what I prefer \u2014 is to leave those big boys in the cellar for a few months and explore some lighter-bodied reds or even ros\u00e9s, which certainly have more oomph and generally more depth of fruit than most white wines \u2014 and they can be served, yes, chilled.\nA ros\u00e9 should, of course, be chilled just like a white wine, so no surprises there. It bears mentioning that all wines chilled to fridge temp will be at their best aromatically and flavour-wise after they\u2019ve warmed up a bit. So, even though you should chill your ros\u00e9 as you would a white, it\u2019s a good idea to take it out of the fridge 15 minutes before serving.\nThe wonderful thing about ros\u00e9s is that they can be made in myriad ways, from various grape varieties, and they range from off-dry to delightfully dry.\nSome are red-and-white grape blends, while others are made solely with the juice of red grapes \u2014 everything from Pinot Noir to Zinfandel \u2014 that had very little contact with the grape skins (where the colour is derived). So you get some of the fruity qualities of a red wine (like those delicious notes of summer berries) in a refreshing, generally lower alcohol by volume (ABV) wine.\nCool Appeal\nIf pink isn\u2019t your thing, there are light-bodied reds that can be given a chill (though not quite to white wine temp) and offer a more refreshing option than big, burly reds.\nFrench wines like Beaujolais and Chinon \u2014 made from Gamay Noir and Cabernet Franc, respectively \u2014 are perfect candidates. As are Italy\u2019s Dolcetto, Chianti and Valpolicella.\nCloser to home, cool-climate Pinot Noir from B.C. (particularly here on the Island) and Oregon can also be lovely when chilled. These are red wines with good acidity and low tannins, whose bright fruit flavours aren\u2019t compromised by cold.\n\u201cThe tannins and therefore the structure, of a red wine are heightened with a chill,\u201d Ring notes. \u201cThis doesn\u2019t mean the tannins are increased, mind you. Just think of them as sharpened slightly, making the wine seem crisper. In addition, the fruitiness of the wine is enhanced and emphasized.\u201d\nIt may seem odd to put a bottle of red wine in the fridge \u2014 or even to take a white wine or ros\u00e9 out of the fridge and let it warm up a bit \u2014 but it can give you more versatility in hot weather.\nIn fact, it\u2019s perfectly suitable to drink red wine on a patio in the summer. You just might need to chill out a bit first.\n\u00ab TOUR A MODERN BEACHSIDE HOME\nA CONTEMPORARY HOME GETS A COLOUR INFUSION \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "How To Help Victims of California's Most Destructive Fire\nChabad emissaries open home and heart to displaced families\nCalifornia's Air National Guard in the forest outside of Paradise City, CA, earlier this year\nby Tzipora Reitman - Chico, CA\nHours before his hometown of Paradise in Northern California was destroyed by the raging Camp Fire on November 8, Randy Stein, 62, had an appointment with his cardiologist. Although his wife, Lois, did not usually accompany him, this time she did. When they emerged from the doctor\u2019s office, they realized something was terribly amiss. The temperature had dropped into the 30s, and the midday sky was as dark as night. The road leading home was blocked.\nThe Steins soon learned that their home on Edgewood Lane, along with every other house on their block, had been totally destroyed. Five of their neighbors died trying to escape the flames. \u201cEverything we own was in that house,\u201d Stein said. \u201cWe have nothing left.\u201d\nTheir dealership for Old Hickory Sheds also burned to the ground.\nThe Steins reached out to Rabbi Mendy and Chana Zwiebel, Chabad emissaries in Chico, the closest city to Paradise. The fire raged just five minutes away from their home in the Rohr Chabad Jewish Center at Chico State University, where Randy had been attending services and classes for six years.\n\u201cThe Zwiebels provided us with food and some gelt just to tide us over,\u201d said Randy, who likes to pepper his sentences with Yiddish phrases. \u201cThe moral support they have given us,\u201d he adds, \u201chas been tremendous.\u201d\nThe Chabad house has been turned into a refuge for displaced families. \u201cWe are appealing to your readers,\u201d Rabbi Zwiebel told Lubavitch.com, \u201cto help us help people who have suffered such terrible losses.\u201d\nRandy and Lois Stein, who have been staying more than an hour away, will soon be moving into the Chabad House for the foreseeable future.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think people outside the area realize the scope of this disaster and how many people are affected,\u201d said Zwiebel. Despite its fanciful name, Paradise is a working-class town, most of whose residents do not have the resources to get back on their feet.\nMendy Zwiebel knows of at least twenty Jewish families in circumstances similar to the Steins\u2019. Those affected range in age and background, and many have had limited contact with Chabad until the Zwiebels reached out to help them.\nMany evacuees are underinsured and few have the emergency insurance necessary to tide them over the first few months until insurance kicks in\u2014leaving them without basics such as food, shelter, clothing, and transportation.\nThe fire\u2019s rising death toll now stands at 76, and the number of missing persons is nearly 1,300. Close to 13,000 structures have been destroyed.\nBesides for arranging temporary accommodations, the Zwiebels have been delivering hot food to people camping out in parking lots and collecting funds for basic necessities.\n\u201cPeople need a lot of financial assistance,\u201d Zwiebel said. \u201cFor now, we are trying to fill their basic needs, but we must raise the funds to help them rebuild. People lost everything, their homes and businesses, and they will have to start from scratch.\u201d\nAside from the physical losses and the noxious air quality throughout the region, people are also struggling with the psychological toll. \u201cThey are emotionally drained from the trauma of driving through the flames to safety and losing everything. For some, it\u2019s still hitting them,\u201d said Zwiebel.\nFor people like the Steins, the enormity of the loss will take time to absorb. Will they rebuild? Start over someplace else? \u201cWe are totally farmisht,\u201d says Randy.\nSupport those affected by the California Camp Fire at www.JewishChico.com/FireFund.\nRandy and Lois Stein, who lost all their worldly possessions in the Camp Fire, gain some comfort with a hot meal and friendly welcome from the Zwiebel family.\nChabad brings nourishing provisions to victims of the Camp Fire, who are camped out in parking lots despite near-freezing overnight temperatures. Face masks provide some protection against noxious air quality.\nA volunteer at Chabad of Chico ladles out hot soup to be brought to fire victims.",

Thinking back, I loved it! Compared to theaters today though, it makes me giggle. My mom raised 3 kids on her own, so this was the perfect place for her to take us for an awesome night out. We always called it the $1.50 movie theater, because that's how cheap the tickets were!\nAfter chatting with some of the (uh-hum) older folks in the building, they refreshed my memory and told me it was called Cinema 3. It was located in the Northbrook Shopping Center on North Broadway.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Mad Max: Fury Road\u2019 Sequels Held Up By George Miller-Warner Bros. Lawsuit\nGeorge Miller\u2019s movies have historically taken a long time to germinate, and 2015\u2019s Mad Max: Fury Road was years in the making. After a nightmare of a production period that involved numerous delays, bad weather, and two stars who couldn\u2019t stand each other, Fury Road finally opened to widespread acclaim, won six Oscars, and was even nominated for Best Picture (rare for a genre movie). That kind of buzz usually means sequels, but word on a lawsuit between Miller and Warner Bros. casts some doubt on the possibility of that ever happening.\nThe court battle has been ongoing since last November, when Miller\u2019s production company filed a suit against Warner Bros. alleging that the studio refused to pay Miller a $7 million bonus for bringing in his movie under the $157 million budget. Warner Bros. insists that Fury Road cost $185.1 million, according to some new information from the Sydney Morning Herald. Warners apparently convinced Miller to shoot a few scenes differently and add some new ones, after which Miller convinced WB to let him shoot his scenes the way he wanted them to. Miller insists they agreed that the money those additional clean-up scenes cost would not be included in the film\u2019s final budget (since it was Warner Bros.\u2019 fault they had to be shot in the first place). WB claims they merely suggested the additional scenes rather than insisted on them, and claims that Miller agreed to find some of the additional filming himself.\nIn the meantime, Miller has written two more scripts set in the world of Fury Road, and both Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy have expressed interest in reprising their roles. But if this suit doesn\u2019t turn out for Miller, it\u2019s unlikely he\u2019ll feel an urge to work for the studio again. Finger crossed that Miller can ride shiny and chrome straight out of court and make those new movies happen.\nSource: \u2018Mad Max: Fury Road\u2019 Sequels Held Up By George Miller-Warner Bros.

Robert Redford is an old man with a gun, and Clint Eastwood is an even older man with a bunch of drugs in his trunk.\nEastwood\u2019s The Mule looks like the gritty reboot of The Old Man and the Gun; while David Lowery\u2019s film is sweet and charming, the first trailer for Eastwood\u2019s latest looks extremely dour with a lot less smiling and flirting. Serving as director and star, Eastwood plays Earl Stone, an octogenarian with a foreclosure looming in his future. Desperate for cash, he takes a mysterious driving job that turns out to be a drug courier gig for a Mexican cartel. The film reunites Eastwood with his American Sniper star Bradley Cooper, who plays a DEA agent on the man\u2019s trail.\nThe film is based on a 2014 story from the New York Times Magazine \u2013 hey, Lowery\u2019s movie was also based on a magazine story. The rest of the cast includes Laurence Fishburne, Michael Pe\u00f1a, Dianne Wiest, Andy Garcia, Alison Eastwood, Taissa Farmiga, Ignacio Serricchio, Loren Dean, Eugene Cordero. The Mule opens December 14, less than a year since Eastwood\u2019s last movie (which I was not a fan of).\nSource: \u2018The Mule\u2019 Trailer: Clint Eastwood\u2019s The Old Man and the Drug Cartel\nFiled Under: Bradley Cooper, Clint Eastwood, The Mule",

        "raw_content": "Cross Country Road Trip: Phoenix to Boston\nDecember 29, 2013 August 14, 2015 lyttleton\nWhen I relocated from New Orleans to Boston in August, I opted for a rental car and a nostalgic trek through a few of my past cities. The trip was a blast and a whole hog success. It kind of made me wish I had made all my moves that way (though, that would have been impractical for most). I don\u2019t own a car, so it\u2019s rare for me to get to take many road trips, especially out of state.\nWell, as chance may have it, an opportunity for another cross country toad trip presented itself and I will be starting off my new year with a nearly 3,000 mile drive from Phoenix, Arizona back here to Boston.\nOne of my roommates has spent the holidays back in Arizona with her family and needs to drive her car back here so she can have it for next semester. As she could use a co-pilot for the trip (and Jesus is too hungover from celebrating his birthday), I volunteered. I will fly out to Phoenix on the 1st, and then after a day or two spending time with her collective past, we will head out on the road.\nDriving for long, calm stretches is about as close to meditation as I will ever get, the unreachable horizon coaxing out contemplative and creative ideas. Almost all of my longest drives have been done alone, so it will be unusual to have a companion on this trip, but other than breaking up the monotony of the gas pedal, I don\u2019t imagine it will fundamentally change the experience of drifting.\nA cross country trip in the winter is quite different from one embarked on in the summer. I\u2019ve learned the hard way that the weather in the cold months can be a bitter barrier, so we\u2019ll be staying mostly south, crossing through Breaking Bad territory and into Texas, probably staying in the southern states until we cross up through Nashville before driving up the coast. We\u2019re giving ourselves a few days cushion to allow for bad weather, unexpected detours and the unplannable possibilities of the road.\nI\u2019ll be leaving the winter drizzle and darkness of the Northeast for warm, sunny Arizona. And then like a boomerang, I\u2019ll be right back. It\u2019s been many years since I\u2019ve been in the Southwest, and even more since I drove through Arizona and New Mexico with my family as a kid. I don\u2019t really have any strong memories of that time there, so in that respect this will almost be like unexplored territory for me. You know that excites me.\nHopefully I\u2019ll be able to update from the road. In the meantime, this will probably be my last post of 2013, so I\u2019ll wish you all a happy New Year and look forward to what 2014 has in store, for all of us. And who knows, maybe I\u2019ll see you somewhere out on the road.\n10 Cities, Road Trip, TravelArizona, Boston, Cars, Driving, Massachusetts, Phoenix, Road Trip, Travel, United States of America, USA\n\u2190 The Top 10 Phony Outrages of 2013\nFrom the Road \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Home / Projects & Programs / ACUNS Workshop /\n2014 Workshop: \u2018Local Justice, Global Standards and Critical Contemporary Challenges\u2019\nSummer Workshop in International Organization Studies\n\u201cLocal Justice, Global Standards and Critical Contemporary Challenges\u201d\nDownload the Call for Applicants\nProgram Theme and Policy Relevance\n\u201cAlmost every crisis or issue has unique aspects, and time and technology have a way of rendering past precedents obsolete. The result is a constant need for innovation, education, and the pooling of experiences to close institutional gaps and develop fresh ideas.\u201d\n-Dr. Madeleine K. Albright, Chair of the Advisory Council of The Hague Institute for Global Justice\nFor 2014, the ACUNS-ASIL Summer Workshop on International Organization Studies (SWIOS \u201914) engages with the subject of \u201cLocal Justice, Global Standards and Critical Contemporary Challenges\u201d.\nThe relationships between justice, reconciliation and sustainable post-conflict peacebuilding for states, societies, groups and individuals that have suffered (and are suffering) from violent conflict, and are seeking pathways forward from that violence, are not always or necessarily clear, consistent or even compatible. Likewise, the relationships between international, national and local interests and priorities regarding justice, reconciliation and peace cannot be assumed to be simple, or straightforward. There can be deep divisions and disagreements over definitions, assumptions, goals, methods, instruments, timing, and responsibilities. These also may vary across localities, loyalties, and time. All of these complexities facing well-intentioned actors may be sharpened still further when faced by \u2018spoilers\u2019 who seek to prevent or derail their efforts for other reasons.\nThe Hague Institute for Global Justice provides an ideal host location within which the 2014 Workshop participants and guest speakers will have time and opportunity to exchange their ideas and experiences on these critical challenges confronting post-conflict actors. Topics that are anticipated as being addressed in the Workshop lectures, participants\u2019 presentations and discussions include (but are not limited to): broader thematic questions such as bridging or coordinating local and global conceptions of transitional justice in support of sustainable post-conflict peacebuilding; the role of customary justice systems in promoting the rule of law in post-conflict states and societies; whether current global institutions can address \u2013 or merely serve to support and replicate \u2013 systems and processes of (structural) injustice; the negotiation of rights and rewards related to renewable and non-renewable natural resource extraction; historical understandings, education and reconciliation; the emergence, dissemination and strengthening or decline of new norms of humanitarian intervention. Specific case studies also are welcome, such as Kenya and the ICC; Cambodia and the ECCC; legal and political frameworks for preventing or managing water-related conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa; Libya, Syria and the Responsibility to Protect; addressing the unique contributions and needs of women and children in post-conflict justice and peacebuilding; the challenges of security sector reform and achieving the rule of law, or reintegration and reconciliation in Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, the DRC, Uganda, Central African Republic, Sri Lanka; the progress of justice in post-conflict Balkans (Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, Croatia); the roles, interests and agendas of particular actors \u2013 national governments, international organizations, the private sector, individual leaders and experts, NGOs, civil society movements, and the media \u2013 in creating recognition of historical injustices e.g. Canada\u2019s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Turkey and the Armenian genocide.\nApplicants also are invited to propose other relevant topics as appropriate in their applications.\nThe SWIOS is an advanced-level research seminar; all selected participants are expected to prepare and present individual research papers and to participate actively in the discussion of others\u2019 research presentations. SWIOS14 will take place at The Hague Institute for Global Justice, and is intended to include meetings and guest lectures, site visits and/or other forms of exchanges. Where possible, the revised research papers of participants, or summaries of the discussions, will be made available following the workshop through the ACUNS web site and global network of scholars and practitioners. Other forms of dissemination such as published collections etc., will be explored but are not guaranteed.\nParticipants in the workshop will gain scholarly and practice-based knowledge and applied skills in the analysis of a number of issue areas related to the workshop theme. In some measure, the specific issue areas will be determined by the research proposals of the selected participants, but more broadly the themes and skill-sets to be addressed may be anticipated to include (but not be limited to):\nThe complex and varying nature of the interrelationships between the political, ideational/ideological, social, economic, legal, institutional and technological aspects of global justice;\nThe roles and interests of actors at local, national, and global levels including intergovernmental, non-governmental, and civil society parties, and across military and civilian policy sectors;\nThe current state of knowledge regarding ideas and norms, policies and practices, strengths and deficiencies, needs and resources, and \u2018lessons learned\u2019 at the UN and other institutions and organizations related to supporting the pursuit of global justice;\nIdentifying and reflecting upon the \u2018lessons learned\u2019 from the sharing of innovative proposals, ideas, and practices, between and among the next generation of scholars and practitioners, and how these best might be used to promote positive policy outcomes.\nThrough presentations by young scholars and practitioners (that is, you!), case studies, guided research, special lectures and innovative pedagogies geared towards post-graduate level professionals, this workshop will encourage participants to improve their own skills and capacities for engaging constructively at different stages and in varying environments in the complex but critical areas of the governance of global justice.\nUp to 20 participants will be selected by a review committee for the Workshop.\nNormally, approximately half of the participants come from within the United Nations.\nThose selected will be expected to submit a ten-page draft of a research or policy paper to his or her director (directly and via Dropbox) no later than 4 weeks in advance of the workshop \u2013 terms of references will be provided. Following the workshop, participants are asked to submit a revised version of their paper/presentation to the director within 2 months\u2019 time (by the end of September 2014), which will be made available on the ACUNS web site.\nThe working language of the workshop is English.\nThe selected participants will receive lowest-cost economy class return air travel between their location and the workshop site, accommodations and some meals for the duration of the workshop.\nThe workshop is designed to promote collegial exchange and networking in an intense program. Participants are expected to take part fully in all aspects of the program. For this reason, participants are not encouraged to be accompanied by spouses, children or other dependents. Neither ACUNS, the host institution or any other associated organization will be able to offer any services or support for anyone accompanying a workshop participant.\nScholars in international relations and international law, and from other fields relevant to the workshop e.g. development, international public policy; and practitioners from NGOs and government institutions in all countries are encouraged to apply. All applications are due by the February 21, 2014.\nApplicants will be notified of the Selection Committee\u2019s final decision by March 7, 2014. Due to the high number of applications, the Committee is not able to provide individual explanations of its selection decisions.",

(Optimist photo by Deanna Romero)\nKelcie Broom (\u201913) founded the group because she saw a need for a dance group with a higher purpose.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve tried to not change too drastically about our mission or the types of dance that we do because it was meant to fulfill a void on campus where there wasn\u2019t that type of dancing,\u201d\u009d Folwell said.\nAt the end of each practice, there is a time for members of the group to worship how they choose\u201d\u201deither through dance, prayer or quiet time, Folwell said.\n\u201cAs dancers we have to have time to rejuvenate,\u201d\u009d she said. \u201cThat renewal comes through dancing as worship, but it\u2019s important to incorporate that worship into our performance. When we\u2019re up there we\u2019re not performing for ourselves.\u201d\u009d\nOmega performs primarily modern, lyrical and jazz dances. The group has performed in the Ethnos Culture Show and the homecoming parade in the fall, while in the spring many members dance in Sing Song. The group performs at other locations in Abilene and ends the year with a showcase.\nThis year the group\u2019s showcase is titled \u201cI Am\u201d\u009d and allows the members to incorporate their own stories into their dances.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s a beautiful way to see inside who people are,\u201d\u009d Folwell said.\nThe show has two remaining performances, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in Cullen Auditorium. Tickets are $7 at the door or $5 for groups of eight or more.\nFolwell said she hopes people will attend.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve worked really hard so it would be great if everybody could come out and see what we\u2019ve been preparing,\u201d\u009d she said.\nFiled Under: Life Tagged With: Omega Dance Company\nAbout Brantly Houston",

There, he studied lipid forcefield improvements and dynamical behavior of membranes, and transport of sugars through the cell membrane via proteins. His Ph.D. work mainly involved predicting the thermodynamic stability of gas hydrates and global amount of this alternate source of natural gas. The separation of molecular nitrogen and oxygen via nanoporous carbons was also a part of his doctoral work.\n1994 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute\u2019s Medal of Science\n1998-1999 Pigford Fellowship (Dept. of Chemical Engineering at the University of Delaware)\n2003-2007 Intramural Research Training Award (NIH)\n2008 Minta Martin Award (UMD)\nNSF CAREER (2012-2017)\nOmega Chi Epsilon Award from the Chi Chapter (UMD)\nUniversity System of Maryland's PROMISE AGEP Outstanding Faculty Mentor (2015)\nCell membrane biophysics, thermodynamics, and molecular simulations.\nProfessor Klauda's research interests encompass thermodynamic modeling and molecular simulations with applications in energy, gas separation, and biomolecular systems. Thermodynamic stability of natural gas hydrates (gas encapsulated by a water crystal lattice of cavities) requires high pressures. These are commonly found in pipelines and can plug the flow of natural gas, but also exist in nature in permafrost or the seafloor. His thermodynamic/mass transfer modeling of methane hydrates in the seafloor suggests that there are three orders of magnitude more methane in hydrated form than in conventional global reserves. These results also have huge implications for an alternate source of natural gas reserves within the U.S. to reduce dependency on foreign energy sources. Moreover, this form of water offers a potential way to sequester carbon dioxide and efficiently separate gasses.\nProfessor Klauda's research in the bioarea is focused on understanding the behavior of cell membranes and how small molecules, such as sugars, cholesterol, and drugs are transported into and out of the cell. This work involves using molecular simulations to study cell membranes at an atomic level. Some fundamental research focuses on developing models to describe interactions between and within lipid molecules and probing the structure of model membranes. These models are then use to develop descriptions of cellular membranes from single-celled organisms (yeast and bacteria) to membranes in human cells (ocular lens and neuronal membranes). We also do research in membrane-associated proteins that are involved in molecule transport across the cellular membrane (secondary active transporters), lipid transport proteins bewteen cellular organelles, ion-assistant membrane protein binding in cellular death, and signalling proteins involved in growth (plexin proteins).\nDr. Klauda is currently collaborating with experimental groups to better understand membrane function and dynamics at a molecular level, including Professor Mary Roberts (Boston College), Dr. Klaus Gawrisch (NIH), Arvind Balijepalli (NIST), Bryan Berger (U. Virginia) and Laura Jarboe (U. Iowa).\nProfessor Klauda's teaching interests include:\nThermodynamics (CHBE 301, CHBE 302, ENCH 610)\nStatistics and Design of Experiments (CHBE 410)\nMolecular Simulation Methods (CHBE476)\nsee CV or Google Scholar page: Klauda",

        "raw_content": "Your Home in Piemonte\nYour home for the week is a meticulously maintained, family-run 3-star hotel in the village of Chiusa del Pesio (population high-3000s). It\u2019s been in the same family for 4 generations. The current owner, Tommaso Vigna, is molto simpatico, a prize-winning amateur cyclist*, and the hotel\u2019s professionally-schooled chef, serving up delicious renditions of classics of Italian cuisine, as well as inventive creations of his own. His wife, Alessandra, operates the computer at the front desk, keeps the books, and together with the hotel staff seats guests and waits tables in the dining room, and pitches in with housecleaning and laundry. She\u2019s a former member of the Italian national Nordic ski team. You\u2019ll see their kids during the course of the week, and also come to recognize the other staff members. The hotel has a sun deck in the back, and secure bike storage in the (finished) basement. In a sitting area near the bar is a wide-screen TV, perfect for live coverage of the Giro d\u2019Italia or Tour de France.\n* Greg Lemond stayed at the hotel when Tommaso had just reached adulthood. The Giro had just finished a wet day and Lemond\u2019s custom-made shoes were soaking. Tommaso was assigned to get them dried, and na\u00efvely put them in the kitchen oven to speed up the drying process. The shoes were just about ruined and there wasn\u2019t a backup pair. The next day, Lemond showed up at the starting line with his shoes duct-taped together. Mario Cipollini, always impeccably decked out, was next to him and gave him no end of grief for his fashion faux pas. Cipollini & Lemond met again at the 2009 Interbike show and, happening to remember the incident, recounted it on stage to a packed audience including the media, though of course Lemond (perhaps fortunately) no longer remembered Tommaso by name.\nHaving a fixed home base frees us to be more flexible, fine-tune and adjust our ride selections each riding day to suit you, as well as current weather and road conditions. With our support van, we\u2019re not limited to the immediate vicinity. We can extend our range by driving, say, part-way to Alba to ride amongst the vineyards and rolling hills of the Langhe, or drive one way to visit a destination and ride back (or vice versa).\nWe normally begin the day shortly after breakfast, starting at 8 am. We\u2019ll review the day\u2019s route before setting off before 9 am. We\u2019ll stop for lunch between noon and 1 pm. Lunch will usually be a leisurely affair lasting 1\u20131\u00bd hours. Those who don\u2019t wish to stop as long are welcome to pursue optional additional miles we can suggest. Keep in mind, however, after about 1:30 it\u2019ll be just about impossible to find food until dinnertime, which is typically not until 8 pm. We\u2019ll resume riding after lunch, and generally be back at home base before 4 pm, leaving ample time to freshen up and unwind before dinner. You\u2019ll probably find the evening meal stretching out over 2 hours or more, leaving just a little time perhaps to stroll around town before you\u2019ll want to turn in to be rested for the next day.\nChiusa del Pesio\nChiusa is not just a winter destination for cross-country skiers and a summer destination for hikers, but also a village where people have real lives and raise families. The Glass and Ceramics Museum, just a few steps from our hotel, exhibits the history and development of glassware, crystal and ceramics production in and near the town. Chiusa\u2019s 3 churches are all lavishly decorated inside. Evenings there occasionally are free concerts either in Chiusa or at one of the nearby towns, or local festivals.\nThere are banks with ATMs, a supermarket, caf\u00e9s (which are called bar in Italian), bakeries/pastry shops, food stores, a post office, a sporting goods shop, restaurants, more hair stylists than you\u2019d expect for a village of its size, gas stations, and many other small businesses. A brief stroll from the hotel is a climbing gym with two outdoor climbing towers and an indoor bouldering course.\nAdjacent to the hotel is the piazza, site of the weekly Sunday open-air market, and the stop for buses to Cuneo or Mondov\u00ec. Cuneo is the provincial capital and the nearby \u201cbig city\u201d with a train station on the line between Turin and Nice. Mondov\u00ec is on the train line to Savona and other seaside resort towns on the Mediterranean.\nSnow-covered Alps from above Chiusa",

        "raw_content": "Clouds: what do they tell us?\nBy Sr. MARIE LUCEK, OP, for the JUNEAU EMPIRE\nClouds help me to reflect on life.\nI missed them this summer, well, not totally, because I thoroughly enjoyed the sunshine and warmth of our summer. I was reminded of how much clouds add to our landscape one day recently as I was crossing the Juneau-Douglas Bridge. I saw so many clouds that day \u2014 billowing ones, fast-moving ones, puffy ones that looked so much like cotton candy that I wanted to reach up and grab them. Everywhere I looked there were clouds. I had a hard time concentrating on my driving.\nClouds are part of our reality here, so I decided early on when I moved to Juneau that I would learn to appreciate and even enjoy their existence.\nI have a special chair that I use for my morning prayer. From that chair I can see Mount Roberts and downtown Juneau, but some days I don\u2019t see any of this. Early morning fog often covers the channel. I know the familiar landmarks of downtown \u2014 \u00adthe dark red of Centennial Hall, the yellow Gold Belt Hotel and the library/parking garage with the multi-colored mural \u2014 all will be there when the fog lifts. I know the fog is temporary and I know what it is hiding so I can manage the fog without much of a problem, unless I want to leave town that day on Alaska Airlines.\nLife however, is not so predictable. I don\u2019t know on a given day when I am struggling with a crisis, such as news that my sister has leukemia, what the \u201clandscape\u201d will look like when the cloud lifts. Will she go into remission, will she be healed through treatment, or will this take her life? I have to trust that God is with her through the fog and that eventually there will be clarity.\nThen there are the low-lying clouds that fill the sky and block my view of the mountains \u2014 is there termination dust up there or not? I am annoyed \u2014 why are these clouds preventing me from seeing the changing colors? Why are they adding darkness to my life? What am I missing? The landscape may change, but I do know all will be clear soon.\nWhen those moments of darkness come I can be so affected by them that I lose perspective and I lose sight of the fact that the darkness, the clouds, are only for a while. It\u2019s hard to be in darkness and not see clearly, but when I reflect on God\u2019s presence with me even in darkness, it helps me to get through these times. It\u2019s tempting to do whatever I can to end the darkness, forgetting that it will leave, and that light will once again be in my life.\nClouds are a mixture \u2014 they can also be delightful and whimsical. Do you remember, as a child, lying on your back (when the grass was dry), looking up at the clouds, and trying to make out a shape? You might see an old man or a woman\u2019s head with lots of curls. That wonderful imagination we had as children never leaves us \u2014 I need to be reminded of this.\nSometimes I watch clouds rising from the trees. It\u2019s like watching a birth, to see something appear that just a moment ago didn\u2019t exist. This is a wake-up call for me: am I using my imagination to create something new in my own life? A new insight, a new way of looking at a situation can change my perspective. This is ongoing and should always be a part of my life.\nWhen one of my friends was first told that she had Alzheimer\u2019s, she was devastated. She began to spend long hours looking out the window at the clouds. Was this an experience of God for her? I believe it was, for these times brought her peace and serenity and, finally, acceptance.\nIn the book The Cloud of Unknowing, a spiritual guide written in the 14th century, the anonymous author wrote: \u201cThis darkness and cloud is always between you and your God, no matter what you do, and it prevents you from seeing him clearly by the light of understanding in your reason\u2026\u201d\nYes, the clouds are my constant reminder that God is close and yet remains a mystery.\n\u2022 Sister Marie Lucek, OP, is the Pastoral Associate at the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.",

        "raw_content": "> Joan Hickson\nBest known for playing elderly super-sleuth Miss Marple, Joan Hickson spent decades playing dotty aunts and housewives in over 100 films. Read on for some vital clues about her life.\nThe young Joan\nBorn in Northamptonshire in 1906, Joan first showed an interest in acting when she was just five years old. She saw a local production of Cinderella, and was so overwhelmed she barely spoke for days, except to announce that she must go and live next door to the theatre so that she could act whenever she liked. She was later to spend three years at RADA, and made her stage debut aged 20.\nAgatha Christie approved\nJoan was destined for the part of Miss Marple of St Mary Mead. She had a minor role in the 1961 Miss Marple film, Murder She Said, in which the lead role was played by Margaret Rutherford, whose comic performance was not appreciated by Agatha Christie. Christie saw Joan on set and said to her: \"Some day I would like you to play my Miss Marple.\"\nJoan's film career spanned over 50 years. Her first film was the 1937 thriller Love from a Stranger, starring Basil Rathbone, which was based on an Agatha Christie story. Her last was Century in 1993, directed by Stephen Poliakoff and co-starring Charles Dance.\nSoftly spoken Joan might seem an unlikely Broadway star, but she won a Tony Best Play Actress Award in 1979 for her performance in A Bedroom Farce, by Alan Ayckbourn. She took the role of Delia, a part she had also played at the National Theatre in London.\nWorldwide fame\nJoan achieved worldwide fame with the 12 episodes of Miss Marple in which she starred between 1984 and 1992. It has been shown in 30 countries, including China and the former Soviet Union. With David Suchet who played Christie's other world-famous sleuth, Poirot, Joan was joint president of The Agatha Christie Society until her death in 1998.\nCarry On Joan In contrast to her role as the quiet, gentle Miss Marple, Hickson appeared in a number of Carry On films. She is an aristocratic drunk in Constable, an officious sister in Nurse, a matron in Regardless and an overprotective mother in Loving.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Aluminum Storm Window Advantages \u00bb Energy Saving Windows\nThe most frequent reason for the addition of interior or exterior storm windows is Energy Conservation and the resulting reduction of heating and cooling costs. Industry guidelines indicate that the addition of a storm window to an existing single-glazed window will reduce the energy loss through the window area by approximately 50%. This savings applies to both heating and cooling.\nThe energy efficiency of windows is normally measured using a U-Value, which is the \"tendency\" of heat energy to flow through the total window system. For example, the U-Value of a standard single-glazed wood double hung window is about 1.12. The addition of a storm window will reduce that U-Value to about .50-.58, depending on the type of storm window which is used. Thus, the 50% reduction in energy losses.\nThere are two (2) components to the total U-Value of a window system:\n\u00bb Uc is the tendency of the window system to lose energy by \"conduction.\"\n\u00bb Ui is the tendency of the window system to lose energy by \"infiltration.\"\nTotal U-Value = Uc + Ui\nStorm windows are highly effective because they provide an insulating air gap to reduce \"conduction\" and an additional airstop to reduce \"infiltration.\"\nVarious glazing materials can reduce the U-Value even further, but at least 80% of the energy savings comes from having the basic storm window there to provide \"secondary glazing.\" The most popular energy-saving option is low-e glass, which reflects heat back into the building in the winter and back outside in the summer. Window films can result in significant energy savings, providing sun relief in the summer, and low-e benefits in the winter.",

The new figures show that the state has made $529.9 million in marijuana sales since January 2018. These sales represent 140% of what was initially expected in sales.\nFor fiscal year 2017 \u2013 2018, the state\u2019s total sales were $424.9 million, according to Fox 13 News. The state also generated $42.5 million in retail marijuana tax revenue and $27.3 million in wholesale marijuana tax revenue. The wholesale tax revenue is put toward education.\n\u201cNevada\u2019s first year with a legal adult-use market has not only exceeded revenue expectations, but proven to be a largely successful one from a regulatory standpoint,\u201d said Bill Anderson of the Department of Taxation. \u201cWe have not experienced any major hiccups or compliance issues, and our enforcement staff has worked diligently to make sure these businesses understand and comply with the laws and regulations that govern them.\u201d\nEach new report released by Nevada regulators shows continuing growth and repeated instances of exceeding sales projections.\n\u201cAs we move into fiscal year 2019, we expect to see continued growth in the industry by way of additional businesses opening up, and we expect revenues to continue to be strong,\u201d Anderson said. \u201cThe state\u2019s consensus forecast for fiscal year 2019 combined marijuana tax revenue is $69.4 million.\u201d\nPrevious Some Canadian Colleges to Allow Marijuana On Campus\nNext Video: 10 Lies You Were Told About Marijuana",

About 15.57% of the population is involved in management occupations, 10.51% in sales and 9.23% in administrative and office support. It has one of the largest populations involved in telecommuting jobs that is 7.49%, which is high relative to the national statistics.

The median price upon sales of many homes in Timbercreek Canyon is $194,009 in the recent years. Median home appreciation is 2.64% as of last year with most of them ranging between 2 and 3 bedrooms each. In order to get the true value of the home it is vital to hire professionals to ensure that the real estate sale price is in tandem with the current market rates carry out an appraisal.\nThe appraisal report contains details such as a brief description of neighborhood, evaluation of the locality\u2019s real estate market, a list of major problems of the property likely to affect its value and an estimated time of how long it will take to sell the property. The report essentially compares the home to the value of similar homes that have been sold in the recent past and differs from an inspection report in that it does not look into how structural sound the home is. It is a vital document to ensure that the asking price is fair to avoid chances of the deal falling through or even forced reduction by the seller of the property\u2019s value.",

        "raw_content": "Grosvenor House \u2013 Regency Treasure House\nIn 1805, Gloucester House, home of several lesser Royals, was purchased by the Grosvenor family. The house had a long frontage along Park Lane and extensive gardens beside Mount Street. The noted architect William Pordon was hired to remodel it. Upon initial inspection, he found it to be \u201cdirty..and not so cheerful as the situation would lead one to expect.\u201d\nIn 1808, Grosvenor House, as it was renamed, was thrown open for the ton\u2019s inspection. Lord Lonsdale, Lord Grosvenor\u2019s fellow Tory, pronounced it \u201cexpensively furnished, but in bad taste.\u201d\nRichard Grosvenor, 2nd Marquess of Westminster\nred looks good on him\nNo matter\u2013Grosvenor House was principally known for its collection of paintings. Stubbs, Gainsborough, Benjamin West were just a few of the artists represented in a collection that required extensive additions to the House. An entire wing some fifty feet long, double story, was added. An entire room was devoted to the religious paintings by Rubens, looted by the French from a Carmelite convent during the Spanish Peninsular War. These were purchased for 10,000 pounds. Presumably the nuns saw none of that money.\nThe development of the Grosvenor Estate, of which the house was only a small part, made the family one of the wealthiest in England during the Regency. Successive generations became wealthier, eventually becoming the Marquesses and later Dukes of Westminster. The present duke is almost (if he isn\u2019t) the wealthiest person in the U.K.\nGrosvenor House is now demolished.\nThe Viscount Belgrave, Richard Grosvenor, and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Leveson-Gower, as she was known before her marriage, lived in Grosvenor House during the London Season with his parents, the first Marquess and Marchioness of Westminster.\nI\u2019ve pictured them here because they are both rather good-looking.\nLady Elizabeth published two very interesting travel diaries. During her trip to Russia in 1827 her knee suddenly swelled. An English doctor was found, along with eight leeches:\n\u201c\u2026more voracious animals never were seen. I could hardly prevent them from biting my fingers in taking them out of their glass; and they fixed the moment they were applied; biting like pen-knives, we put on seven, and never saw anything like their size, and the quantity of blood they took away..\u201d\nElizabeth Grosvenor, Marchioness of Westminster\nno leeches in this 1816 portrait\nThis entry was posted in Regency, Uncategorized and tagged Elizabeth Leveson-Gower, Gloucester House, Grosvenor House, Mount Street, Park Lane, Richard Grosvenor, Rubens, William Porden by Angelyn.

Although, the remaining houses are truly beautiful.\nI\u2019ve had to really dig deep to reconstruct how the square looked then compared to today. British history online has been invaluable\u2013particularly the survey conducted to reconstruct much of London that vanished in the early part of the twentieth century.\nLovely house and lovely couple. Thanks for your lovely post.\nThey are good-looking, aren\u2019t they? I love how the marchioness referred to her husband by his viscountcy\u2013darling Belgrave.\nI love your blogs.

        "raw_content": "Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures \u00bb\nThat Same Flower\nGaarder claims that while browsing in an old bookstore, he found a letter to St. Augustine from Floria Aemilia, his mistress and the mother of Augustine\u2019s only son. They lived together for over a decade, first in Carthage (Tunisia) and then in Italy. Augustine banished Floria to move on to a socially advantageous marriage. He never got married but chose the path of abstinence and ascetism instead. From her exile, years later, Floria writes the letter. She has read Augustine\u2019s Confessions, and studied philosophy herself. She reminds him of their history together, and defends the pleasures of the senses.\nWere you and I not as two sides of a body that was fused \u2013 as a bridge joins two sides of a river into a body? Then a mighty divinity suddenly rises up from the river \u2013 or an abstract principle of Abstinence \u2013 that seems to sever the connection between one riverbank and the other? No, I do not believe in such a God, Your Grace\u2026 Can you still remember how you stroked me all over and seemed to tighten every bud before it opened? How you enjoyed plucking me! How you were intoxicated by my perfumes! How you nourished yourself on my juices! And then you went away and sold me for the sake of your soul\u2019s salvation. What infidelity, Aurel, what guilt! No, I don\u2019t believe in a God who demands human sacrifices. I don\u2019t believe in a God who lays waste to a woman\u2019s life in order to save a man\u2019s soul.\nThis missive questions the Church\u2019s view of women and love. The one thing that was not clear at the end was whether Gaarder really did find the Codex Floriae, as he claims, or if he has used the device of an epistoliary novel to bring to life the intellectual debates of another time. The latter seems more plausible because the narrative goes on more or less chronologically, and a personal missive is more likely to have been haphazard.\nDon\u2019t want to stir a hornet\u2019s nest here, but I would not take dear old Floria\u2019s explanations of her relationship with St. Augustine at face value. She makes him the absolute Other of her life, the twin-half, the soulmate, and all that. She feels that because of their great love, his conversion is too much a betrayal, and therefore \u201cfalse\u201d to himself. Now, I feel that\u2019s putting on too much a strain upon an old flame. But then, most women do that. They just look at the world with a different shade of spectacles, and that is not necessarily wrong. It is an equally valid way of looking at the world, an equally good point of view, just\u2026 slightly warped.\nFor Floria and many women, I suspect that love becomes their entire history. For Augustine and men in general, it may well be just an episode. Men seem to find fulfilment in many other things besides love, and do not \u2013 in my limited knowledge \u2013 seek that One Person, their Severed Twin, the yin to their yang, their Missing Rib, so to speak. I may be wrong. I probably am. Hope so, anyways.\nFloria does raise a good point or two. That, gratification of the senses is not immoral, because God gave us those senses in the first place. It is right and moral to enjoy food, art, music, sex, all the pleasures of the world that God has bestowed. Indeed, self-mortification is wrong and shows ingratitude to God. \u201cMay God have mercy on your folly, Aurel\u201d she says.\nPerhaps the most important thing that Floria represents is the question of the position of women in Christianity and the Church. To look at religious dogma, the Church (dare I say, the Bible?) would have us consider the female as some kind of sub-species \u2013 whereas the male is the fully-developed, fully-realized creation of God.This begins from the moment they assert that Eve caused the fall from Eden and Grace. Like Adam would never have tried the forbidden fruit if Eve didn\u2019t say \u201cyum\u201d. Assuming she even did. That\u2019s one of the great whodunnits of religion as far as I\u2019m concerned. Was Eve framed? Someone elses\u2019 gender studies dissertation.Then the Bible says something to that the effect that the woman is a honeyed trap laid by Satan, an instrument of the devil for men to fall into sin and temptation.\nAnd then, there is the idea that ascetism / abstinence is the desired goal of a saintly Christian life. I mean, just look at Augustine \u2013 it\u2019s all self-righteous rejection of human desires \u2013 he doesn\u2019t want to listen to hymns, because \u201cthe sense of hearing offers perilous enticements\u201d; he doesn\u2019t even want to eat, barely \u201cenough to sustain life\u201d. Floria rages at him, oh, go do an Oedipus and put your eyes out, and while you are about it, go and cut your tongue, nose and everything out, and for good measure, castrate yourself too, because everything you do, look at, hear, feel \u2013 everything is a sin! As well may Floria say, \u201cI\u2019m afraid. I fear what the men of the Church might one day do to women like me,\u201d mistresses to powerful religious figures, unwed mothers to illegitimate children, intelligent women, women who are loved by these powerful men.\nThis entry was posted on September 22, 2006 at 2:13 am and is filed under Hist / Bio.\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed.

But it is obviously historical fiction. The author does not give any proof of the existence of the Codex, and his arguments to \u201cbelieve\u201d in its authenticiy are not cientific.\nIf one, I think, would find some document like this one and be sure of its authenticiy, Why not to show it to the world as a historical finding instead of writing an epistolary novel? Also, there are some cues in the writing that let the reader to know that the author is from our times (Gardner). The arguments of Floria are ok, but the portraying of Agustine as having an incestuous and insane love for his mother, or acussing him of hiting Floria, or even a slight insinuation of having left his son die, are pure gossip, and\u2026FICTION. Also, from my point of view, it is not such a great issue if this man was true or not in his choice of leaving his mistress to face a new form of life. Many men or women in history had made similar decisions in order to devote theirselves to what they think is the Truth: their nations, a scientific research, etc. The book is good in terms of a critic of ideas, but that is all.",

        "title": "The \"workers right are not protected by the EU\" lie",
        "raw_content": "The \"workers right are not protected by the EU\" lie\nAnyone who is familiar with my work knows that I'm left-wing. I'm left-wing because I think that some infrastructure and services are far too important to be left to private profiteers, and are much better if they are run as not-for-profit public services.\nThe EU referendum debate is very interesting because it's not a left-wing vs right-wing contest. You have hard-right people on both sides of the debate and also very left-wing people on both sides too.\nThe Leave campaign is supported by right-wing zealots like Michael Gove (the guy who privatised thousands of publicly owned schools into the hands of unaccountable private sector pseudo-charities and openly declared that people should ignore the experts and use their gut instincts when making important decisions), Priti Patel (a vile reactionary who detests workers' rights), Chris Grayling (the guy David Cameron put in charge of privatising the UK justice system), John Redwood (a guy who wants to see the UK turned into the World's biggest tax-haven), Arron Banks (a guy who bankrolls UKIP and wants to see the NHS privatised) and Iain Duncan Smith (a rabidly right-wing narcissist who actually compared his callous treatment of the unemployed and disabled with the slavery abolition movement). However Leave also has the support of some admirable old-school left-wingers like Dennis Skinner and Dave Nellist.\nThe Remain campaign is supported by the likes of David Cameron (an inveterate liar), George Osborne (surely the most under-qualified and incompetent Chancellor in living memory), Theresa May (a disgusting right-wing authoritarian who has introduced much of the absolute worst legislation during Cameron's stint as Prime Minister), Nick Clegg (a man who sold his so-called principles for a tiny taste of second hand Tory power) and Tony Blair (the right-wing neoliberal who usurped the Labour Party and switched it from being a social democrtic party to a Thatcherite one). However Remain also has the support of genuine left-wingers like John McDonnell and Jeremy Corbyn, as well as the bulk of the trade union movement.\nI'm definitely not pro-EU (I've probably written far more detailed criticism of the EU than 99% of Brexiters) but I decided that the case for quitting the EU is far too weak if there's not actually a specific plan of action for how to restructure the UK economy/legal system/constitution/trade relations etc after we leave. I've critiqued both the right-wing Vote Leave campaign and the left-wing \"Lexit\" campaign and found them both sorely lacking in an actual plan of action for how the post-EU economy would be restructured.\nGiven my left-wing sentiments I really did want the \"Lexit\" case to be better than the \"Vote Leave\" case, and in some regards it was. Criticism of the economically hard-right assault on our sovereignty that is the TTIP corporate power grab clearly carries more weight when coming from a left-winger than it does from the kind of right-winger who would normally be orgasmic at the thought of the complete corporate takeover of the United Kingdom.\nThe right-wing Vote Leave campaign desperately undermined their own case with their absolute refusal to stop repeating their \"\u00a3350 million a week\" lie, even after it's been clearly shown that including all expenditures and excluding all benefits is a shockingly misleading way of determining the cost of a thing.\nI genuinely hoped that \"Lexit\" wouldn't stoop to such appalling lies to sell their campaign, but unfortunately some of them did. The most oft repeated \"Lexit\" lie is that \"workers right are not protected by the EU\". This lie isn't just endlessly repeated by \"Lexiters\" in comments threads, it actually appears in a Left Leave campaign document which states in no uncertain terms that \"it is a myth that the EU defends workers\".\nThe claim that the EU has done nothing to protect workers rights is an outright lie. In 1998 the EU introduced the European Working Time Directive in spite of fierce opposition from the UK Tory government during the negotiation phase. The European Working Time Directive prevents your boss from forcing you to work more than 48 hours a week (you still can if you want to, but your boss can't make you) and it also guarantees paid holiday leave (2 million British workers had no paid holiday leave at all before the Working Time Directive came into operation!).\nOf course many of our workers' rights were won through the hard work and sacrifices of trade unionists long before the EU even came into existence, but to claim that the EU doesn't protect any workers' rights whatever is just as clear a lie as the right-wing \"\u00a3350 million a week\" claims.\nOf course it's possible to argue that the EU hasn't done enough to protect workers rights, they were apparently powerless to intervene when Margaret Thatcher carried out her ideological assault on Britain's heavy industries and the trade unions and they have been seemingly powerless to stop the exponential growth of exploitative Zero Hours and Limited Hours contracts too. However this is a very odd argument for Lexiters to make, because the implication is clearly that the EU should have had more powers to protect our workers' rights, not that we would have been better off outside the European Union.\nPerhaps this obvious logical problem with the \"the EU hasn't done enough to protect workers' right\" line of argument is the reason that some \"Lexiters\" have instead resorted to repeating the outright lie that the EU doesn't protect any workers' rights whatever?\nWhatever the reason that this lie has been adopted by the \"Lexit\" campaign, it's severely disappointing. It's disappointing because even though I think \"Lexiters\" are playing with fire by calling for Britain to quit the EU when we have a radically right-wing government in power, I really wanted their case to be superior to the shockingly dishonest rubbish spouted by the right-wing Brexiters. However this oft repeated lie about the EU doing nothing for workers' rights proves that certain members of the Left Leave campaign are just as prepared to lie to get what they want as members of the right-wing Leave campaign are.\nLabels: 2016, EU, EU referendum, Labour rights, Propaganda, referendum, Tories, UK, Zero Hours Contracts",

        "raw_content": "In new book, department chair details why creativity is the key to human exceptionalism\nThere are four predominant arguments that seek to explain human evolution and human nature \u2014 humans are naturally aggressive; humans are naturally caring; humans are natural hunter-gatherers; humans are transcendentally intelligent.\nAgust\u00edn Fuentes finds those to be compelling but extremely simplified. Years of research and an emphasis on cross-disciplinary conversations has instead led him to a more complete story of human evolution.\nCreativity and collaboration, he\u2019s found, are the most important explanations for why we are the way we are.\n\u201cCombining the one with the other, as no other species has ever been able to do so well, propelled the development of our bodies, minds, and cultures,\u201d said Fuentes, professor and chair of the University of Notre Dame\u2019s Department of Anthropology. \u201cWe are neither simply the demonic species nor the altruistic species. We are neither entirely untethered from our biological nature nor slavishly yoked to it.\n\u201cWe are, first and foremost, the species singularly distinguished, and shaped, by creative collaboration.\u201d\nFuentes details this bold perspective in his new book, The Creative Spark: How Imagination Made Humans Exceptional (Dutton, 2017), which blends paleontology, archaeology, genetics, and anthropology in answering the question of what has made humans the most exceptional of Earth\u2019s species.\nThe book is the product of Fuentes\u2019 field research as an anthropologist and National Geographic explorer, but it is also the result of more than a decade of efforts to bring together specialists from a wide range of fields. By collaborating with mathematicians, geneticists, computer scientists, philosophers, and theologians, Fuentes said he recognized that a more nuanced, complete, and judicious accounting of human evolution was necessary.\nCreativity and collaboration, he argues, helped us elude predators, make tools, share food, control fire, and tell stories. It led us to collectively care for the young, develop religious beliefs and ethical systems, and produce masterful artwork.\nBut humans also applied that same creativity and cooperative skill to compete with each other, killing at increasing levels of complexity, and manipulating the planet to devastating effects.\n\u201cOur lineage survived while all other human species went extinct because our ancestors used their creative capacity to reshape the threats and opportunities of their environments, in turn reshaping themselves,\u201d he said. \u201cThey were subject to the same set of basic evolutionary rules as all living creatures, but they managed to bend them. Modern humans are simultaneously the result and cause of our own evolution, for better and for worse.\u201d\nFuentes\u2019 previous books include Evolution of Human Behavior (Oxford University Press, 2009), Biological Anthropology: Concepts and Connections (McGraw-Hill, 2011), and Race, Monogamy, and Other Lies The Told You: Busting Myths About Human Nature.\nIn February, he was named chair-elect of the anthropology section committee of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. At Notre Dame, where he has been on the faculty since 2002, he is a fellow of the Liu Institute for Asia and Asian Studies, Institute for Latino Studies, the Kroc Institute for Peace Studies, and the John J. Reilly Center for Science, Technology, and Values.\nThe Creative Spark has been met with widespread acclaim, including positive reviews in The Economist, Booklist, and Library Journal. Fuentes has also detailed his research for the book in New York magazine, in a National Geographic interview, and in an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit.\n\u201c(I was surprised to find) how resilient we are as individuals as a species,\u201d Fuentes wrote in response to a Reddit question about his most unexpected finding in his research. \u201cHumans have a real knack for figuring out how to make it work through the toughest times. This is the creativity that I write about and it\u2019s the massive evidence for it that forced me to write this book.\u201d",

Therefore, in the 20th Century, the first Western country to come to mind at the mention of \u2018democracy, human rights and freedom\u2019 would be the USA.\nHowever, and especially since the beginning of the 2000s, the extreme and controversial methods and practices employed by the federal government have forced many to question the level of true democracy and human rights in the country.\nIndeed, an important development that happened two years ago reminded Americans that their private lives weren\u2019t that private after all.\nRELATED: Individual Freedoms and the Regulations on Clothing\nRELATED: Driving to Freedom: Saudi Women\u2019s Struggle\nThe Intelligence Scandal Uncovered by Snowden\nIn 2013, Edward Snowden, a former contract employee of the NSA, announced to the public that almost all Americans\u2019 phone calls were being recorded and stored. After the information divulged by Snowden, the people of the USA found out that everything from their phone calls, to their emails, and even their Google searches were monitored carefully by their country\u2019s own intelligence service in what is referred to as \u2018metadata collection\u2019.\nRELATED: Life Sentence or Death Penalty \u2013 At What Price Freedom and Justice?\nRELATED: Few Muslims believe US stands for Democracy; Demand for more personal freedom\nAfter this enormous intelligence scandal involving the NSA, people became aware of the existence of the 215th Article of the Patriot Act, from which the NSA\u2019s literally limitless intelligence authority came. Following 9/11, and ostensibly as a part of the \u2018fight against terrorism\u2019, the Patriot Act gave wide monitoring authorities to US intelligence services. However, their validity came to an end on June 1st of this year. Together with the controversial 215th Article, the other two articles included provisions that allowed the collection of intelligence and the monitoring of communications of everyone that was suspected, even if their direct connection to a terrorist organization could not be corroborated.\nFreedom Act in lieu of Patriot Act\nOn June 2nd, the Freedom Act, which was planned to replace the controversial articles of the Patriot Act, and which was passed by the Senate with 67 votes in favor versus 32 votes against, was approved by Obama and came into effect.\nRELATED: You are being Watched \u2013 Spying on Social Media\nThe Freedom Act introduces various restrictions on the monitoring and intelligence gathering activities of intelligence services like the NSA within the borders of the USA, and also brings various restrictions on many privileges that the FBI had thus far enjoyed in the fight against terrorism. The law also ensures that the activities of the NSA are more transparent and that the NSA is more accountable.\nThe new Act also prevents the NSA from recording and storing telephone metadata and transfers that authority to private phone companies. Furthermore, in order for the NSA to access this data, they need to get permission from Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. It also stipulates that civilian attorneys assigned by this private court take a look to see if the request is justified or not.\nIs the Freedom Act really Effective or is it Just to Keep up Appearances?\nThe Freedom Act appears to be a more liberal law that protects and pays more attention to human rights and liberties compared to the 15-year-old Patriot Act. However there are concerns that the new act is insufficient in terms of controlling the NSA and other intelligence services, and even completely ineffective.\nFor example, New York-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) claims that the Freedom Act \u2018is a very small step against wide-scale government monitoring\u2019 and that \u2018a very comprehensive monitoring reform is urgently needed\u2019.\nOn the other hand, there is strong criticism claiming that the law is nothing but an attempt to give the impression that the government is not monitoring the people anymore, as it has no power of sanction. Some even claim that the new law is nothing but a forced retouching on a very small part of the wide-scale activities of NSA.\nMoreover, it is claimed that NSA will not lose anything with the latest amendments; on the contrary it will save a great deal of money by being able to transfer the costs of storing telephone metadata to private telecommunication firms.

Pohlman, professor of political sciences from Dickinson University, claims in his piece in The Washington Post that \u201cit is possible that the new USA Freedom Act might actually broaden the government\u2019s program of collecting and analyzing telephone metadata\u201d.\nTerrorism won\u2019t be stopped by tracking seven billion people\nTo sum it up, be it a real move or a temporary fix to keep up appearances, the fact is that monitoring and tracking activities by US intelligence services are continuing at full speed. Furthermore, these laws pertain only to the intelligence activities regarding US citizens and do not include any articles on restricting intelligence activities regarding non-US citizens or US citizens abroad.\nThe US government has, no doubt, every right to take the necessary steps to protect its country and ensure the safety of its citizens in the face of radical terrorism. However it is crucial that the methods employed are successful and are in compliance with democracy, human rights and liberties. The truth is that the Patriot Act clearly failed in thwarting terrorist attacks so far as it could not stop even one.\nAs I always point out, neither military methods nor tracking each and every one of the seven billion people that constitute the totality of the human population, or putting a guard on each of them or watching them with surveillance cameras, have ever worked against the threat of radicalism and terrorism. On the contrary, it only serves to make terrorism worse. Furthermore, it has put innocent US citizens in unnecessary trouble, has led to investigations of dubious merit, arrests based on simple suspicions and a significant loss of confidence in the government of the United States of America.\nYet, instead of these very costly, ineffective and unsuccessful methods, educational policies based on love, compassion and peace, aiming to improve peoples\u2019 consciences and their moral and cultural development in order to truly eradicate the mindset of radicalism, would deal the strongest blow to terrorism and secure the most definitive results.\nPrevious articleNew UAE Online Law Can Punish You For Swearing\nNext articleBali tops as the best wellness destination in Asia",

        "raw_content": "You've got jail? \u2014\nGizmodo went phishing with the Trump team\u2014will they catch a charge?\n\u201cSecurity test\u201d sent to 15 officials, advisors, others skirts the edges of CFAA.\nEnlarge / Go phishing the White House and you may need a bigger boat.\nLsuff\nEarlier this week, the team at Gizmodo's Special Projects Desk published a report on how they \"phished\" members of the administration and campaign teams of President Donald Trump. Gizmodo identified 15 prominent figures on Trump's team and sent e-mails to each posing as friends, family members, or associates containing a faked Google Docs link.\n\"This was a test of how public officials in an administration whose president has been highly critical of the security failures of the DNC stand up to the sort of techniques that hackers use to penetrate networks,\" said John Cook, executive editor of Gizmodo's Special Projects Desk, in an e-mail conversation with Ars. Gizmodo targeted some marquee names connected to the Trump administration, including Newt Gingrich, Peter Thiel, (now-ex) FBI director James Comey, FCC chairman Ajit Pai, White House press secretary Sean Spicer, presidential advisor Sebastian Gorka, and the administration's chief policymakers for cybersecurity.\nThe test didn't appear to prove much. Gingrich and Comey responded to the e-mail questioning its provenance. And while about half of the targeted officials may have clicked the link\u2014eight devices' IP addresses were recorded accessing the linked test page\u2014none entered their login credentials. The test could not determine whose devices clicked on the link.\nWhat the test did manage to do is raise the eyebrows of security experts and some legal experts. That's because despite their efforts to make it \"reasonably\" apparent that this was a test, Gizmodo's phishing campaign may have violated several laws, ignoring many of the restrictions usually placed on similar tests by penetration-testing and security firms. At a minimum, Gizmodo danced along the edges of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA).\nTo violate the CFAA, Gizmodo would have to have intentionally accessed a computer without authorization or exceeded \"authorized access\" to obtain information from a \"protected computer.\" The definition of \"access\" (and even \"computer\") is much broader than how most people would typically think of them under the law, so conceivably anything that returned information from a computer\u2014a webpage with scripts that run in the computer's Web browser, for example\u2014could be considered \"access\" under some circumstances.\nGizmodo took some steps to stay within the law. \"The system we devised for this project disclosed to the subjects that it was a Gizmodo Media Group test at every stage,\" said Cook. \"The initial e-mail and the log-in page that the e-mail linked to both contained disclosures. We designed the log-in page so that, if a subject entered any credentials, no passwords could be viewed, accessed, intercepted, or retained in any way. We would know if they entered any characters in the password field, but not which characters. In the [test], no subjects entered any credentials.\"\nThe test itself consisted of the targeted e-mail\u2014using the name of someone each target knew, but with a return e-mail address of security.test@gizmodomedia.com. \"At no point did we access any servers or data without authorization,\" Cook asserted.\nBut those measures may not have been enough to protect Gizmodo from a law enforcement investigation or potential prosecution.\nJoshua Rosenblatt, a Baltimore-based attorney with a law-enforcement background recently spoke on the legal risks of penetration testing in a session at BSides Charm City in Baltimore (in a session entitled \"I Went Phishing and I Caught a Charge\"). He explained to Ars that even though Gizmodo may have not violated the letter of the law in the CFAA, \"it's reasonable for the government to believe that the CFAA was violated under these circumstances.\"\nThat \"reasonableness\" is an invitation for the government to investigate Gizmodo, Rosenblatt explained, \"which is hardly to Gizmodo's benefit\u2014[though] the government's probably not thrilled at the prospect of investigating a media outlet either.\"\nThe Gizmodo test was constructed \"in hopes that a top-level government official would try to hand over their Google account credentials,\" Rosenblatt explained. \"If Gizmodo had succeeded in this, the situation would be much different. Because at that point, it looks to the government like Gizmodo was given the keys to some very sensitive information\u2014even unclassified information can still impact security.\"\nAnd while Gizmodo's test was set up only to \"register\" individuals who had tried to log in to the test's spoofed Google login, \"it would be unreasonable for the government to rely on the word of someone who just phished top-level government officials,\" Rosenblatt said, \"especially when Gizmodo could be well-meaning but wrong\u2014it turns out that information security is actually more complicated than tends to be expected. Who knew?\"\nRosenblatt explained that there were a number of key questions that would need to be asked to determine if the test had truly stayed outside of the scope of the CFAA:\nOn the \"access\" and \"obtaining information\" side:\nHow did they track click-throughs?\nIndividualized websites/hyperlinks?\nPlanting cookies?\nPHP/other scripts?\nOn the \"exceeding access\":\nHow was the e-mail sent?\nWebsite directed? Browser used?\nDid they violate any terms of service to do so? That can be a killer in certain jurisdictions.\nMark Jaffe, who represented Andrew \"weev\" Auernheimer in his CFAA prosecution, agreed that the government could use the test as an excuse for investigation and potential prosecution. \"All it took to motivate the government to bring a prosecution [against Auernheimer] was a list of e-mails published by Gizmodo's predecessor,\" Jaffe said. \"Usually, the government prosecutes CFAA cases \"because of a bad result, a bad actor, or an aggressive (usually) corporate victim,\" but he added, \"If the government wants to get creative, it will. Unfortunately, I think the government would go after the media if it wanted to.\"\nJaffe said that some of the elements of the Gizmodo phishing project were \"consistent with the broadest interpretations of the CFAA we've seen.\" The use of false names in e-mail headers may have violated the terms of use of the e-mail provider, he explained. (Gizmodo hosts its e-mail with Google.) \"We've seen prosecutions based on violations on terms of service, alleging [that] it's access to protected computer without access. And the circumstances of obtaining the personal information from others, using a false name, could reach the most broad interpretations under the CFAA.\"\nJaffe said that he didn't believe that there should be criminal prosecution \"as a result of this kind of experiment\"\u2014particularly since no passwords appear to have been acquired. \"But I think that when prosecutors are motivated and creative, any kind of deceptive or 'bad' behavior on a computer can lead to investigations under the vague and overbroad CFAA.\"\nRosenblatt said he believed CFAA charges were unlikely\u2014largely because Gizmodo's phishing experiment didn't go very far. \"Based on their article,\" he said, \"it's not clear that Gizmodo could be criminally charged for a CFAA violation. But that's mostly because their phish appears to have been far less effective than they seem to have anticipated or hoped. According to them, nobody tried to sign in to the fake Google sign-in page that they set up. And so there's less of a claim that 'information' was obtained.\"\nBut avoiding the CFAA's statutes doesn't mean Gizmodo's test is in the clear. The second issue raised by both Jaffe and Rosenblatt is that the CFAA is only one of a host of laws at the federal, state, and local levels that could be brought to bear.\nJaffe noted that while he couldn't recall any CFAA cases based solely on phishing, \"there have been some federal civil actions, and states have specific anti-phishing laws.\"\n\"The CFAA isn't the only computer crime out there, and the federal government isn't the only one with a vested interest in preventing phishing attacks,\" Rosenblatt explained. \"There are a multitude of crimes at both the state and federal levels, including identity fraud, falsified e-mail headers, attempting to obtain personal information by deception, etc. And given the variety of state laws and the number of targets involved here, there's a strong probability that this unsolicited phish violated a criminal law somewhere in the country.\" For example, Maryland's identity fraud laws have some significant implications when it comes to phishing.\nThe Gizmodo team acknowledged that they used deceptive means (using the names of targets' acquaintances in the \"from\" field of the e-mails) to obtain at least some information.\nOne of the justifications Gizmodo gave for the legality of the test was that a \"careful reader\" could have known that it was a phish. \"'Disclaimers for careful readers' is not how consent works,\" Rosenblatt said. \"Walking up to someone and saying, 'phishingtargetsayswhat' is not a valid way to gain consent.\"\nFor example, Rosenblatt explained, if an airline's ticket had fine print at the bottom that said the ticket was good for only half the flight\u2014at which point passengers would be ejected from the aircraft\u2014 \"an airline would have a difficult time trying to justify in court its mass-ejection policy on the basis that a 'careful reader' would have known to bring a parachute.\"\nGizmodo also defended the test in the article by equating it to the sorts of tests done by security professionals. \"The existence of boxing doesn't make it legal to punch anyone you see,\" Rosenblatt said. \"Red-teaming without consent is like walking down the street punching people in the chest to warn them to keep their guard up. Maybe you're making a good point that will help people, but you've still 100% broken the law and can't be upset when the cops come looking for you.\"\nsypher Smack-Fu Master, in training et Subscriptor\nHow would this be any different than if it was done by a security company?\nAs one who does this sort of thing for a living:\n1. We are approached by the organization that wants their employees or systems evaluated.\n2. We have written/signed consent by executives of the client organization who have legal standing/authority to give such consent.\n3. We have an agreement on what techniques we are allowed to use, what systems or networks we are allowed to target, and how to handle or dispose of any privileged information we collect as part of our authorized activities.\nThe activities of security companies are very, very tightly controlled, and consent/authorization is most critical aspect of all of it.",

        "raw_content": "Driving is a common, every day necessary practice in our hectic lives. Every day we get into our cars and leave our homes without thinking about the dangers on the roads. Whether driving through the neighborhood or down the highway it is usually uneventful\u2014 but accidents do happen. Sometimes these are innocent fender-benders, but other times these accidents are much more severe, especially when drugs or alcohol are involved. If you are suffering due to a crash caused by an impaired driver, working with a skilled legal team that understands the nuances of complex car accident claims can make all the difference. Your rights matter and you should receive compensation for your injuries to help cover the cost of your recovery.\nThe car accident attorneys and legal professionals at Stewart J. Guss, Attorney at Law, are here to help! We offer a free consultation to all of our clients and dedicate ourselves to protecting your rights after an accident. We are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year to assist you. Call us at 800-898-4877 or contact us now by CLICKING HERE to submit your case for review.\nWhat to Do if You Suffered Injuries in a Drug Impaired Car Accident\nA recent article published by the GHSA references the study and reviewed about the number of drivers that tested positive for drugs after a fatal car accident. The study determined that in 2016, 44 percent of drivers who experienced a fatality in a car accident had at least one type of drug in their system at the time of the crash. 44 percent is a staggering and alarming percentage, and this is a prevalent problem, and should cause serious concern for responsible drivers.\nIf you are involved in a car accident, and you believe that the use of drugs impaired the other driver, you should take specific steps to protect yourself.\nEvaluate your immediate injuries \u2013 Evaluate your injuries and determine if you need to go to the hospital immediately. If so, call an ambulance or ask someone else to call for you. If you are not severely injured and can wait to seek treatment, make sure you get to a safe place where you are out of the way of other cars.\nCall the police. The police will begin an investigation into the accident upon arrival to the scene. If the cops suspect that the other driver is under the influence of drugs, they might administer a sobriety test. They will also prepare an official accident report, which will be essential in supporting your insurance claim.\nSeek medical attention. Even if you don\u2019t think the injuries you\u2019ve suffered are serious, it\u2019s essential to get a medical evaluation from a doctor. Some symptoms, especially those related to a traumatic brain injury (TBI), don\u2019t show up for hours or even days after the accident. When you file an insurance claim, they will check to see if you sought out a medical exam and when you sought treatment. If they notice that you didn\u2019t, you risk minimizing or even forfeiting your claim.\nSpeak with a law firm. Many people are afraid that hiring a law firm will be too expensive, forgetting that an experienced car accident law firm is often your best chance of gaining full compensation for your damages. At Stewart J. Guss, Attorney at Law, our experienced car accident legal team offers a free consultation to all of our clients. You can feel free to ask questions and confident in your decision to work with a group of legal professionals who understands your situation and precisely what to do to help you and your family.\nHow Our Law Firm Can Help\nMost people are caught off guard when they\u2019re involved in a car accident, and it can be difficult to know what steps will help or hurt your chances for a fair settlement offer. Working with a legal team well versed in complex car accident cases allows you to focus on what\u2019s most important: your health! Let us take the burden of the claims process off your shoulders.\nCollect documentation \u2013 We will collect your documentation to support your claim\u2014from the police report to medical records, or anything else we believe will help your claim.\nTrack damages \u2013 We will prepare a comprehensive list of your economic and non-economic damages. Insurance companies will attempt to minimize the value of your claim. Calculating your damages is essential to the goal to receive the full and fair compensation you deserve.\nCarrier Communication \u2013 We will communicate directly with insurance companies, so you don\u2019t have to. It\u2019s likely that the insurance claims adjusters will try to connect with you directly to take a recorded statement about the accident. You may feel tempted to speak with them but remember, their motives are primarily to reduce your compensation. It\u2019s always best to step out of this situation and let your experienced legal team talk with the insurance carrier.\nFile Claims \u2013 We will file your claim and all relevant paperwork timely and in accordance to the law. Every state has a statute of limitations that sets a specific time frame that you must file your case, and these statutes vary by state. It\u2019s essential to file within this time period, and if you don\u2019t, your claim will be dismissed without review.\nCall a Car Accident Law Firm RIGHT NOW\nIf you\u2019ve been in a car accident and believe that the at-fault driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, don\u2019t wait any longer\u2014speak with an experienced legal team RIGHT AWAY.

The pub was frequented by Irish Catholics/nationalists.\nThe explosion caused the building to collapse, killing fifteen Catholic civilians\u2014including two children\u2014and wounding seventeen more. It was the deadliest attack in Belfast during the Troubles.\nMcGurk\u2019s Bar Bombing: Loss of Innocence\nDespite evidence to the contrary, the British security forces asserted that a bomb had exploded prematurely while being handled by Irish Republican Army (IRA) members inside the pub, implying that the victims themselves were partly to blame. A report later found that the police (Royal Ulster Constabulary) were biased in favour of this view, and that this hindered their investigation.\nThe victims\u2019 relatives allege that the security forces deliberately spread disinformation to discredit the IRA. In 1977, UVF member Robert Campbell was sentenced to life imprisonment for his part in the bombing and served fifteen years.\nThe bombing sparked a series of tit-for-tat bombings and shootings by loyalists and republicans, which would help make 1972 the bloodiest year of the conflict.\nA British soldier surveys the aftermath of the bombing\nCorner of North Queen Street and Great George\u2019s Street, Belfast,\nSpotlight \u2013 The Mcgurk\u2019s Bar Bombing\nFurther information: Timeline of the Northern Ireland Troubles and peace process\nMcGurk\u2019s (also called the Tramore Bar) was a two-storey public house on the corner of North Queen Street and Great George\u2019s Street, in the New Lodge area to the north of Belfast city centre. This was a mainly Irish nationalist and Catholic neighbourhood, and the pub\u2019s regular customers were from the community.\nThe pub was owned by Patrick and Philomena McGurk, who lived on the upper floor with their four children.\nThe Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) was formed in Belfast in 1966, declaring \u201cwar\u201d on the Irish Republican Army (IRA). Until 1971, however, its actions were few and it:\n\u201cscarcely existed in an organisational sense\u201d.\nThe British Army was deployed in Northern Ireland following the August 1969 riots, which are usually seen as the start of the Troubles. In December 1969 the IRA split into two factions: the \u2018Official\u2019 IRA and Provisional IRA. Both launched armed campaigns against the British Army, the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) and the government of Northern Ireland.\nDuring 1971, the violence gradually worsened. There were daily bombings and shootings by republicans, loyalists and the security forces. During the first two weeks of December, there were about 70 bombings and about 30 people were killed.\nOn 2 December, three republican prisoners escaped from Crumlin Road prison, not far from McGurk\u2019s. Security was tightened and there was a heavy RUC and British Army presence in the area over the next two days.\nEyewitnesses asserted that the checkpoints around McGurk\u2019s were removed just an hour before the attack.\nPlaque near the site of the bombing listing those killed\nOn the evening of Saturday 4 December 1971, a four-man UVF team met in the Shankill area of Belfast and were ordered to bomb a pub on North Queen Street. According to the only convicted bomber\u2014Robert Campbell\u2014they were told not to return until the job was done. Campbell said that their target had not been McGurk\u2019s, but another pub nearby.\nIt is believed this was a pub called The Gem, which was allegedly linked to the Official IRA. The 50 pounds (23 kg) bomb was disguised as a brown parcel, which they placed in a car and drove to their target. Campbell says they stopped near The Gem at about 7:30pm, but could not gain access to it because there were security guards outside.\nAfter waiting for almost an hour, they drove a short distance to McGurk\u2019s. At about 8:45pm, one of them placed the bomb in the porch entrance on Great George\u2019s Street and rushed back to the car.\nIt exploded just moments after they drove off. Campbell implied that McGurk\u2019s had been chosen only because it was:\n\u201cthe nearest Catholic pub\u201d.\nThe blast caused the building to collapse. Bystanders immediately rushed to free the dead and wounded from the rubble. Firefighters, paramedics, police and soldiers were quickly on the scene. Fifteen Catholic civilians had been killed\u2014including two children and a further seventeen wounded. The rescue effort lasted many hours.\nPhilomena McGurk, (46)\nKilled in bomb attack on McGurk\u2019s bar, junction of Gt.

The British Army and RUC moved in and a gun battle developed.\nMajor Jeremy Snow\nIn a despicable act the IRA shot Major Jeremy Snow as he attended the scene. He died of his injuries four days later on the 8th December .\nJeremy Snow was at the Royal Fusiliers headquarters a short distance away from the scene of the explosion when the bomb went off. Such was the strength of the blast that the soldiers initially thought that it was their building which had come under attack. Snow began organising the rescue operation but quickly handed this over to Major Mike Dudding who, using a loudhailer, organised a human chain of volunteers to remove the rubble.\nAt around 10pm a crowd of Protestants began gathering in the New Lodge/Tiger\u2019s Bay area intent on mocking the Catholic victims of the blast. Before long a Catholic crowd of around 100 gathered and the two groups began trading insults and throwing stones at one another. Sensing trouble, Jeremy Snow called up a reserve platoon and, having decided that the crowds were getting out of hand, decided to separate the two groups at North Queen Street. At 10.30pm, as he alighted from his vehicle at Hillman Street a quarter of a mile from the scene of the bombing, he was shot and wounded in the neck by an Irish Republican Army sniper. He was placed on a stretcher and taken by armoured ambulance to the Royal Victoria Hospital. His wife was at his bedside when he died from his wounds four days later.\nOne of the soldiers from his Company wrote:-\n\u201cMajor Snow was my company commander. Charlie Company, 2nd Battalion Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. I was with the Major the day of the incident. We were plodding along, like you do, when a civilian asked for directions. As Major Snow crossed the road to go to him, he was gunned down.\nHe was a lovely bloke, a real gent and we all had the utmost respect for him. We were all gutted when it happened. I met my wife to be at his memorial service and we have been together for 30 years and to this day we do not forget the sacrifice he made. He was one of the many casualties we had to bear to make N.I. the safe and secure place it is today\u2026 I salute you Sir\u2026\u201d\nHe was Mentioned in Despatches for his services in Northern Ireland which was announced by St James\u2019s Palace on the 23rd of May 1972.\nA British Army officer, Major Jeremy Snow, was shot by the IRA on New Lodge Road and died of his wounds on 8 December. Two RUC officers and five civilians were also wounded by gunfire. Eventually, five companies of troops were sent into the district and they searched almost 50 houses.\nMeanwhile, the UVF team had driven to a nearby pickup point where they dumped their car. They walked to the area of St Anne\u2019s Cathedral and were picked up by another. They were driven back to the Shankill and met the man who had ordered the attack in an Orange Hall, telling him that:\n\u201cthe job has been done\u201d.\nAmong those killed were Philomena and Maria McGurk, wife and 12-year-old daughter of the pub owner Patrick McGurk. Patrick and his three sons were seriously injured. Shortly after the attack, McGurk appeared on television calling for no retaliation:\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter who planted the bomb. What\u2019s done can\u2019t be undone. I\u2019ve been trying to keep bitterness out of it.\u201d\nSee: Balmoral Furniture Company Bombing",

        "raw_content": "Healing the Victims of ISIS Persecution\nBy: Ra'fat Aldajani Drew Christiansen\nNational Catholic Reporter, August 22, 2016\nThe residents of Manbij rejoiced, women threw off their burqas and men shaved their beards as coalition forces, supported by the U.S., expelled the Islamic State fighters from the Syrian city. When the Syrian Democratic Forces combed the city for extremist holdouts, they freed some 2,000 hostages held by the terrorists.\nManbij was the latest in a series of cities, like Tikrit and Ramadi, liberated from the so-called Islamic State group. Two weeks before American officials declared that 50 percent of ISIS-occupied Iraq and 20 percent of occupied Syria had already been liberated.\nAs the cities have fallen, the international community has become aware of the size the challenge it faces in meeting the needs of the liberated populations. As it anticipates the capture of Mosul, Iraq's second largest city, their concern over the magnitude and complexity of the humanitarian needs they face after victory over ISIS has dawned on the war planners.\nIn Ramadi, where the coalition was unprepared for the outflow of civilians, the displaced and victimized numbered in the hundreds of thousands. In Mosul, a city whose pre-ISIS inhabitants numbered two and one-half million, they may number in the millions. To prepare for that eventuality, the international community (65 nations) has held a series of consultations and pledging conferences in Jordan, Greece, Austria, Morocco and France. To date, two billion dollars has been pledged for stabilization and reconstruction.\nThe latest was a conference on Threats to Religious and Ethnic Minorities under the Islamic State July 28 and 29, sponsored by the United States Department of State in conjunction with Georgetown University. The first day was a forum for civil society actors hosted by the Religious Freedom Project of Georgetown's Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs. The second day was a diplomatic consultation hosted by the State Department's Office of International Religious Freedom.\nBoth days had a wide range of representatives of minority groups: Yazidis, Assyrian Christians, Syrian Orthodox, Kurds, Ba'hai, Turkoman, Kakai and other minorities. Iraqi parliamentarians, representatives of the Kurdistan Regional Government and UN agencies like the Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees also participated.\nThe discussions covered an array of topics that have become standard in the study of transitions from war to peace: above all, return or resettlement of refugees and displaced people, and the balance between reconciliation and justice for perpetrators.\nReturn of refugees to their home areas is a preferred solution for the international community, because of the difficulty of finding hospitality in the West for the victims of Iraq's wars and the desire of the leaders of religious groups, like the Church of the East or the Catholic Chaldeans, to renew the presence of the churches in their historic homelands.\nRecent history, however, makes many religious minorities wary of the much discussed plan of establishing a safe haven for minorities on the Nineveh plain outside Mosul. Almost universally they gave voice to their desire for autonomy and self-protection as their communal goals, that is, minority self-rule with self-protection forces backed by the international community and only then confederation with Iraq and or Kurdistan.\nThe hard lesson of experience, the ISIS victims feel, is that no group can be trusted with the government of another. International NGO representatives reminded the participants that there would be no peace without the inclusion of the larger ethnic groups, Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds too. Their mantra was \"inclusivity.\"\nChristine van den Toorn of the American University of Iraq, Sulaimani, warned, however, that the U.S.-backed experiment of an Iraq where people could live together had failed. Intergroup suspicions makes building an inclusive society very difficult. New strategies, she argued, need to be found. The only new thinking in evidence, however, stressed minority autonomy. How a larger federation or confederation could be arranged was never discussed.\nIt was no surprise, then, that participants disagreed on the key question of transitional justice: What comes first, justice for perpetrators or forgiveness and reconciliation? Speakers took both sides, and there was not time to talk it through.\nAt least one nation, France, has decided not to wait on challenging the impunity of perpetrators. Under the legal doctrine of international jurisdiction for crimes against humanity and genocide, judicial procedures have been initiated against more than fifty alleged perpetrators.\nThere were also frequent reminders about the narrowness of the conference's focus: Iraq, not Syria; and Daesh, not other perpetrators of genocide and mass atrocities. In the context of regional history, most agreed, Daesh is just one perpetrator of atrocities among others.\nThere is no hope, many felt, of bringing the cycle of violence to an end until there is an accounting for the internecine brutalities in the region: of Saddam against the Shiites and Kurds, and the Shiites against the Sunni, and on and on. Where does one begin? Where do you end?\nThe world can't turn the corner on genocide, several warned, until the endemic violence of the region is addressed. That is largely a cultural problem, they believed, enmeshed in tribal and religious tradition and susceptible only in minor ways to political fixes. A few believed, however, that the call in the Jordan Plan of Action for \"full and equal citizenship\" in combination with minority protection could provide a way out.\nAs enormous as are the humanitarian problems that the victorious forces in Iraq will face after the fall of Mosul, the challenges in healing the region and in creating united political communities there are much more profound. What is done in the next ten years could be decisive. But the healing, reconciliation and renewal of Iraqi society will take generations.\nThis blog, co-written by Drew Christiansen, S.J., and Ra'fat Aldajani, was originally posted by the National Catholic Reporter.",

The individual does not have to have any social standing to improve the standards of the society according to the wishes of the people (Alexander and Helen par.4). The public society looks out for someone who has their best interest at heart and Bertha Palmer assumed the role of a social leader and carried it out quite diligently. Her role in the society was quite influential and this might have been attributed by her background but the fact was that she used it to benefit the society. She took on this role in the 1800s, a time when women were not regarded as equals in the society and made an impact and a difference on the matter of equality. Therefore, this paper aims to look at Bertha Palmer as a social leader and the skills she used in making substantial changes.\nThe skill of submission is not one that is possessed by many individuals but Bertha used it to her benefit and those of the society. The fact that she was from an influential and wealthy family did not stop her from submitting to the cries of the women in the society. The people might not been in higher power than her but she was willing to be submissive and listen to their woes. This gave her the stability and guidance that she needed in assuming the role of a leader for the greater good of the society (Feldman 12). She assumed this role and defended the rights of the women in a manner that portrayed courage and a zeal that made people listen to her. Defending the rights of women during that era was rather difficult as the women were perceived to occupy certain roles in the society and equality was a far fetched dream for the women. Mrs. Potter Palmer was able to understand the women as she was one of them and felt it was a bout time that someone voiced their concerns.\nAs a social leader Palmer believed in the value of unity as it was the only way that they would be able to penetrate the male dominated world. She could not be able to fight for the women's rights alone without having unified herself with the women, nature and other involved institutions. This gave her the ability to realize that if she made any wrong decisions then the consequences would be felt by every single individual involved. She started as member of the Chicago Women's club and this gave her the ability to understand the problems faced by the women better. This interaction was important as it gave the foundation of her leadership (Myers 45). The groups met to discuss solutions and try to emerge with solutions. Mrs. Palmer would then be the voice while presenting their problems to higher authority. Her position in society and her wealth helped her make progress in the fight for women's rights. Her value of humility helped her carry out this role quite effectively.\nOne cannot be a social leader if they do not have the passion for the position, this can only achieved if the person has a calling for occupying the position (Ehrenreich 23). From her outward appearance and successes, one could not have thought that Bertha Palmer could assume the role of a social leader and play it out quite perfectly. This is because wealth had always been part of her lifestyle and she had other talents as well but this was not enough as she had to explore all her gifted areas. The interest that she had in being a social leader in order to help the society helped her deliver her services to the people perfectly. Always known for her wit and intelligence, she applied both very well while leading he women's clubs in the society of Chicago. The people were quite satisfied with the results achieved as the growth of the women's clubs continued to be stronger with time. In 1891, she was even declared president of the Board of Lady mangers of the world's Columbian Exposition. This only proves that the people were satisfied by what was being achieved through the leadership of Mrs. Palmer.\nThe vision that Mrs. Palmer had for the women's group that would advantage them had been quite big and beneficial and she use her power to work towards that. Her aim was not only to change the equality aspect but to improve the lives of the women in the society. This was attributed to the fact that it would help shape the children's lives as well.\nThis is the education that instills knowledge in leader that will be effective in helping him/her guide the people in the right direction (Hogg 185). This knowledge goes beyond general information and skilled individuals but rather knowledge that is rather necessary. As mentioned earlier, Mrs. Palmer was from a background that was quite wealthy hence, her education was rather proper. This knowledge was applied effectively in the group meetings and coming up with ideas that would instill knowledge in the lives of the women too. This is important since as a social leader one acts as great inspiration to the rest of the people and one would want to inspire knowledge and wisdom in them just like Bertha Palmer did.\nSocial leaders are known to be very active leaders and this is the role that Mrs. Palmer exhibited to the society. Her actions did the talking for her as she used her wealth to steer the projects and her position to increase her influential capabilities. As soon as she assumed leadership roles in the Women's group she started the project of supporting kindergartens. She spearheaded this project until finally the government made them part of the school system of the city. She also participated in some of the campaigns that bore fruit later on such as; campaigning for inexpensive milk for children who were rather malnutrition and providing better care to the children whose mothers were imprisoned.\nTo sum it up, social leaders are aware of their surroundings and how different systems operate; they use this knowledge to guarantee freedom and fair treatment of every individual. Bertha Palmer was aware of this fact and knew she was at a position of improving the lives of many individuals. Hence, she used this opportunity to make the lives if the women better and this gave her a lot of recognition. Therefore, she had the necessary skills to make sure that the people would be satisfied by her leadership role in the society.\nMedia Responsibilities\nAnalysis of Jay-Zs Lyrics\nAnalysis of the Media",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s Make God Great Again\nI\u2019m sure you are familiar with the passage that says, \u201cThe word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword.\u201d God recently gave me a wake up call that I was not focusing on Him like I should.\nI repented. I\u2019ve since turned to the Father who is kind, gentle, creative and merciful. I woke up this morning to today\u2019s Jesus Calling and a cup of coffee. Okay, I had two cups. One of the scriptures Sarah listed was in 2 Corinthians 4. I\u2019ve had it memorized for a long time.\nSo do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.\nThe word of God we call the Bible continues to bless my heart, soul, mind and strength. Passages like this continue to knock my socks off because our God is a consuming fire that will never be quenched.\nI\u2019ve been through some very tough stuff, and likely you have too. I\u2019d love to hear about the battles you\u2019ve faced. If you\u2019d rather not have them for public consumption email me. My email address is under the contact link above. Life is hard, but when we have friends or strangers to share the hardships with they are less hard. My friend Amy and I talk frequently about our mental illness, and I thank my God for the source of light she has been in my journey.\nWe were made for community, and the community Amy and I share at Black Dog Book Co. is priceless. Whether it\u2019s a Dr. Pepper or a latte with almond milk doesn\u2019t matter because our mutual faith gives us each hope that God has indeed united us. God brings together the people He wants together. I\u2019m convinced of that, and I think our friend Terry for teaching us that.\nJesus is oh so good my friends. I know you may have been hurt by organized religion. I have too. I\u2019ve been hurt deeply over many years and many places from here to California. I\u2019m not denying the pain associated with people that follow Jesus, but Jesus has never let us down. Never. His promise to be with us forever is as true now as it was in the first century. We question why bad things happen, why idiots get away with murder, and why bullies seem to persist every day, but God is never done with the work He set out to do since mankind came to this planet.\nEach one of us has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, but never will He leave or forsake us. It is literally not in His nature to turn His back on His children. I can\u2019t comprehend that. I\u2019d lay down my life for my daughter. Since I held her in my arms almost fourteen years ago I made a tacit vow to protect her. I\u2019ve failed at many things, but that\u2019s one thing I will never let my guard down so long we both have breath in our lungs. You\u2019ll have to put a bullet in my head before you get to my daughter. Hell hath no fury like the scorn of a dad\u2019s love for his daughter. I wish I could be clearer about that.\nTake all of that times a trillion, and you\u2019ve got a fraction of the love God has for all 7 billion on the planet. John 3.16 says God loves the world. He doesn\u2019t just love North America. There aren\u2019t just a select group of States here that He prefers over the others. He loves the world. He literally died for it. He took a bullet to the head, but the Father raised the Son from the dead. He\u2019s not still dead in case you were wondering.\nJesus is either a liar or the LORD, and I\u2019ve seen too much to say He is a liar. Satan is continually manipulating emotions and situations as the father of lies to turn us away from God. Satan is powerful, smart and his resources are beyond anything we can imagine, but God\u2019s presence is not phased by his agenda. He tried to defeat Job. He\u2019s trying to defeat you and me, but so long we have faith as small as a mustard seed we can move mountains. I believe that with all my heart.\nI may fight depression, but so long I keep putting one foot in front of the other Satan will never take my heart or my mind because my God\u2019s love is too great.\nPrevious For Me",

        "raw_content": "Ex-Muslim Woman Warns: \u201cAbdul El-Sayed Is Practicing Taqiya To Become Michigan Governor\u201d\nFarrah Prudence, an Ex-Muslim woman who was raised Muslim but chose to convert to Christianity after she fled her abusive Muslim father in Ohio is speaking out to warn the voters of Michigan about the creeping Sharia that is on their ballots this election cycle.\nAccording to Prudence, who currently lives under protection due to the fact that she has a Fatwa over her head for being an apostate, Abdul El Sayed, a Sharia compliant Muslim man who is currently campaigning to become the next Governor of Michigan is \u201cpracticing Taqiya\u201d in order to convince non-Muslims to vote for him.\nIn Islam, Taqiya is a component of Sharia Law that allows and encourages Muslims to lie to achieve their goals and spread Islam.\nWhen asked whether or not El-Sayed was using Taqiya to appeal to non-Muslim voters, Prudence said, \u201cAbsolutely. The things that are told in front of non Muslims are not the same things that are shared inside the mosque.\u201d\nEl-Sayed is not only a Sharia compliant Muslim, but he is a Democrat socialist running on a Marxist political platform as a self-proclaimed \u201cjustice Democrat\u201d. Some of the campaign talking points El \u2013Sayed is campaigning on include socialized healthcare, legalization of Marijuana, free college tuition, abortion, opposition to fossil fuels, pro-illegal immigration, and anti-Israel foreign policy. If elected Governor, El-Sayed has vowed to abolish ICE and make Michigan a Sanctuary state where illegal immigrants are protected from deportation and immune to the actions of law enforcement agencies.\nSayed, who is running on the Democrat ticket as a \u201cJustice Democrat\u201d, refused to answer questions about his personal practice of Sharia and how Islamic law contradicts key platform stances in the Democrat Party when he was confronted at a campaign event in Michigan last week.\nEl-Sayed practices Sharia law in his personal life, and has stated that his head touches the floor 34 times a day during his Islamic prayers. His true colors as a Muslim were revealed in May of 2018 while he was speaking to the Michigan Press Association at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing, Michigan. While speaking, El-Sayed yelled at Senator Patrick Colbeck and said, \u201c\u201cYou may not hate Muslims, but ALL Muslims hate you\u201d.\nColbeck is a Republican member of the Michigan Senate, and he is currently a Republican candidate running to become the next Governor of Michigan.\nThe fact that El-Sayed practices Sharia law means that the political talking points he has been campaigning on in Michigan are directly in contradiction with what he believes as a devout Muslim. El-Sayed\u2019s practice of Sharia Law is not only exemplified through his religious behavior inside the mosque, but it is also seen through his appearance.\nPrudence explained how El-Sayed\u2019s wife is Sharia compliant in the way she wears her hijab, and how El-Sayed himself sports a Sharia beard.\nSelf admitted socialist Alexandira Ocasio-Cortez, and pro-Hamas Left-wing mouthpiece Linda Sarsour have been in Michigan campaigning for El-Sayed over the past few weeks, encouraging voters to vote more Muslim and socialist candidates into office across the country in 2018.\nMichigan voters will have the choice to decide whether or not they want to be governed by a practicing Sharia compliant Muslim, or a principled American constitutionalist when they flock to the polls to vote in their primary on August 7th.

        "raw_content": "With the SEC promising to issue \u201cplain English\u201d guidance on security token analysis and the industry waiting for the first SEC-approved security token offering (STO), could 2019 be the year that security tokens become the fundraising tool of choice?\nSecurity token offerings are well on their way to becoming a secure and stable method of fundraising. Last year as the number of initial coin offerings (ICOs) began to taper off, STOs were already taking over as an acceptable way of raising money.\nUnlike utility tokens, where there are normally few (if any) rights accruing to the token holder, security tokens can offer investors ownership over a company\u2019s tangible assets in a similar way to stocks and bonds, and they can represent the right to receive dividends, profits and voting rights.\nIn short, security tokens can be structured in accordance with securities regulations so that token holders\u2019 rights can be very similar to what they would have if they had bought shares in a publicly traded company.\nSTOs in numbers\nIt\u2019s no wonder then that last year more than 1,200 STOs were launched globally, according to a report published by InWara Research. In the U.S., despite the SEC not having approved a single STO, the number of launches grew by 60% from 174 in 2017 to just under 300 STOs by Q4 2018.\nAlthough investments and trading STOs are still the most popular according to InWara, there are so many other use cases for security tokens. Security tokens that are held on the blockchain can be fractionalized, and this makes it possible for retail investors to put very small amounts into offerings from cutting-edge venture capital projects such as healthcare and gaming, to impact investing or real estate.\nWorking towards a legitimate new asset class\nMany of us in the industry are working hard to develop security tokens, and the infrastructure that supports them, to be firmly in line with securities and regulatory requirements. With sound infrastructure in place security tokens can offer a wider range of investment opportunities to the investing public, with the possibility of secondary market liquidity.\nIn the U.S., security tokens can be issued under either Regulation D, Regulation S, Regulation A+ and Regulation Crowdfunding exemptions, all of which operate under different criteria. For example, the Regulation D exemption is usually used for accredited investors only and involves a minimum period that investors have to hold their tokens before they can be sold. Regulation A+ offerings, which have to be qualified by the SEC, allow non-accredited investors to invest and there are far fewer restrictions on resale. Nevertheless, all the regulations specify that token issuers must be accountable for their actions.\nIt is a nascent industry, but it is evolving quickly. A move to create quality investment products can already be seen from the increasing number of SEC filings for security tokens, and the foundations are being laid for an institutional-grade secondary market. Institutions are developing their own digital products. For example, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) is about to launch Bakkt, a digital asset exchange.\nUsing trusted market infrastructure and creating high quality tokenized equity solutions for early stage companies will revolutionize the way we invest.\nWaiting for the green light from regulators\nYes, we are still waiting for further guidance from the SEC, but there is pressure from all sides to bring regulations in line with more dynamic markets such as Switzerland.\nLate last year, a bi-partisan bill was introduced to Congress which attempts to modernize the U.S. securities laws. The \u201cToken Taxonomy Act\u201d bill, introduced by representatives Warren Davidson and Darren Soto requests the removal of digital tokens from the definition of a security and requests that cryptocurrencies receive their own set of rules.\nThe aim is to provide light-touch regulatory certainty for businesses, entrepreneurs, and regulators in the blockchain economy and encourage innovation in the sector.\nThe Token Taxonomy Act is by no means a quick solution-it will certainly be some time before we see a vote. However, the discussion and clarification that emerges as a result will encourage excellence in innovation within the industry.\nSecurity tokens can provide a valuable investment tool to tap into a growing number of alternative investment opportunities in global markets, with the very real possibility of secondary market liquidity.\nWe are all looking forward to the moment when the SEC qualifies the first STO offering, as that will indicate that the necessary market infrastructure components to support the burgeoning STO markets are now in place.\nmatthew sullivanSTO\nPrevious ArticleFor \u201cICO 2.0,\u201d Security Tokens Take Center StageNext ArticleThe Token Taxonomy Act May Not Be a Bullseye, But It\u2019s Progress",

        "raw_content": "Blockchain 101, Ethereum, Featured, News\nGeneral purpose blockchains, such as Ethereum, enable the implementation of smart contracts.\nSmart contracts are legal agreements that are implemented in computer code and execute autonomously.\nThe concept of smart contracts has existed since at least 1994 when cryptographer Nick Szabo wrote about them.\nA very simple example of a smart contract is a vending machine. A contract exists between the buyer and a seller to exchange drinks or other goods for a certain price. This contract is automated by the machine and activate by the buyer by introducing the payment and selecting the product. There is even a \u201cclause\u201d covering the case in which the machine may run out of the product. In this case, payment is automatically refunded to the buyer.\nBlockchain technology makes it possible to deploy trusted smart contracts on a decentralized system without the need for third-party arbitration. Both parties can trust the immutability property of the blockchain to protect the contracts clauses and transactions.\nBlockchain technology and, smart contracts, in particular, are on the road to adoption in many industries. Let\u2019s look at the state of adoption in three different scenarios.\nIn banking. Financial institutions have been quick to realize the advantage of distributed ledger technology over their own networks. Almost all major banks have adopted a strategy to leverage the underlying technology for their own money and asset transfers. Ripple is an example banking-backed global payment network based on distributed ledger technology. Whilst Ripple is a more traditional cryptocurrency application, smart contracts are starting to be used to automate many banking processes\nSmart contracts provide an investment alternative for technology start-ups through so-called Initial Coin Offerings (ICO). ICOs sell cryptographic tokens related to a project to investors. In this form of crowdfunding, investors bet on the successful implementation of the project, in the hope the token will increase in value. In addition, the token usually has a utility function in the proposed platform, for example enabling participation or acting as an in-app currency.\n2. Supply Chain Management, Trade, and Tracking\nSupply chains are a classical example in which items have to be tracked through a number of connected businesses on a global scale that does not fully trust each other. Decentralized provenance tracking combined with transaction automation provides for safer and more transparent supply chain management. A joint venture between IBM and shipping company Maersk is one of the larger project focusing on this application scenario.\nThe properties of the blockchain allow real-world assets to be represented on the blockchain. This can be used for anything from collectibles and digital art to property deeds and digital representations of commodities. Provenance of raw materials is one successful application of this, demonstrated for example in the tracking of diamonds.\n3. Identity Management.\nAccounts on the blockchain are identified through public and asymmetric cryptography. Public and private key pairs are used to sign transactions and prove ownership of accounts and assets. Attaching real-world identities to these cryptographic identities provides solutions for trusted authentication for government services, online voting, and many more applications. uPort is a blockchain-based identity management system, which is being used by many, for example, by the Swiss city of Zug for citizen identification.\nReal-world Adoption\nThe above is only a small snapshot of current smart contract applications with a business-oriented focus. However, there are real-world examples, showing that smart contract adoption is well on the way. Further applications include transparent computer gaming, healthcare, insurance policies and many more.\nsmart contractsuse cases\nPrevious ArticleChina Releases Crypto Rankings, Puts EOS at TopNext ArticleBlockchain Technology for Enterprise Solutions",

        "title": "Boswell and Hume \u2013 The Colorful Clairvoyant",
        "raw_content": "~David Hume, 18th Century Scottish Philosopher and Atheist\nDavid Hume was a most fascinating character. He was a bold outspoken Atheist at a time when piety was at a peak and the Church of England ran the show.\nHume\u2019s father died just after his second birthday. His mother who never remarried raised him and his older brother. He attended the University of Edinburgh at the very unusual age of 12, there is some evidence to support he may have been as young as ten.\nHume never married and wasn\u2019t very popular in society. He never relented on his belief that religion and dogma interfered with reason, morality, and true emotion. He worked for four years on his first major writing, \u201cA Treatise Of Human Nature\u201d. Many of today\u2019s philosophers consider it to be his finest work and one of the most important books on Western Philosophy. The critics in Great Britain at the time thought otherwise, describing it as \u201cabstract and unintelligible\u201d.\nHis skepticism earned him a lifetime of abuse even from those that recognized his genius. The pious had the brass ring and no one would pry it from that self-righteous grip. There had once been a concerted effort to excommunicate him from the Church of England. I don\u2019t know why he would have cared and maybe he didn\u2019t.\nHume believed in logic. He believed in morality. He further believed that religion had no corner on those subjects. He once flatly stated that the morality of every religion was bad and that when he heard a man was religious, he concluded that he was a rascal, although he had known some instances of very good men being religious. So you see, it as important to Hume to be a very good man.\nIn his last year of life, Hume wrote an autobiographical essay titled, \u201cMy Own Life\u201d. It was fewer than five pages. He discusses the high and low points of his life. It\u2019s short and sweet.\nAs Hume lay on his deathbed, he received a visit from James Boswell. It was a contrived attempt to peer into the mind of the man who didn\u2019t believe in God, to see if perhaps he had become frightened of passing and would revert to some desperate, last-minute attempt to save his immortal soul. There are no atheists in foxholes, kind of thing, I guess.\nInstead of finding Hume gripped with guilt and fear, Boswell found him cheerfully talking of different matters, tranquil and possessing a clearness that most people never get to.\nI suppose finding Hume that way gave Boswell an even greater need to blatantly ask him about the afterlife. Hume shot back with, \u201cIt is possible that a piece of coal put upon a fire would not burn.\u201d He then added to that with, \u201cIt is a most unreasonable fancy that we should exist forever.\u201d Boswell kept going by asking if Hume was not uneasy with the idea that he would forever cease to exist, to which Hume replied that he was no more perturbed by the idea of ceasing to exist than by the idea that he had not existed before he was born.\nBoswell tried his best to poke and prod, but David Hume was centered in what he believed. He had spent his entire life studying human behavior, the mind, and morality. He could not be shaken.\nI think it may have been Boswell that was shaken. Evidently, he tried twice more to visit Hume before he died, but was turned away.\nWe often make jokes about those who attend church on Sundays and then go about the rest of the week treating others with disrespect and life as something that is here to serve them. I guess that why Hume called religious men rascals. Further, we always declare that those folks are not really religious or spiritual. They certainly are not moral.\nI believe that David Hume was centered in something greater than himself. He didn\u2019t call it God or Divine. But what does that matter? He had peace. He used his mind to create that for himself. I would have loved to have walked and talked with him.\nMaybe it\u2019s not fair for me to see him as one connected to a higher power, since he spent his life denouncing such things. But that is the way I see it.\nSomething caused this place that we are in. Whatever we call that is completely insignificant. If you embrace the idea that all of the seemingly separate systems here feed each other that means that everything is connected in some way. If I just think of that, I feel a bit more centered. It gives me peace, and at the same time, I feel energized. I am not alone, you are not alone and no one is alone. We\u2019re all in this together.\nSeek the center of your being, your true Self. It\u2019s a journey you will not regret.\nThis entry was posted in Blog, Centered Sunday, Themed Week and tagged atheist, Centered Sunday, philosophy by admin.

        "raw_content": "The title speaks for itself. Social media marketing simply means marketing of your products or services and attracting as much traffic to your site through social media. Some of the examples of social media sites are Facebook , Twitter , Linkedin , G+ , Instagram etc.\nFacebook allows the users to put in images and videos with a long description. It promotes the product in a healthy way and attract a lot of customers. Where as Twitter only allows to send a message in a limited 140 characters. Products can be promoted on an individual basis. There is also an option to link your twitter account with facebook where there is an opportunity for the followers to spend more time with the product. This interaction can create a loyal connection between product and individual and can also lead to larger advertising opportunities.\nLinkedIn is a professional business-related networking site that allows companies to create professional profiles for themselves and meet others. Through the use of widgets, members can promote their various social networking activities.LinkedIn provides its members the opportunity to generate sales leads and business partners.\nSocial media marketing programs usually center on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it with their social networks. Social media is a platform that is easily accessible to anyone with internet access. Social media serves as a relatively inexpensive platform for organizations to implement marketing campaigns. Social networking websites allow individuals to interact with one another and build relationships.\nWhen companies join the social channels, consumers can interact with them. That interaction feels personal to users because of their previous experiences with social networking site interactions. Such sites allow users to share , like , re tweet or re post anyone's comments. By doing this all connections of users can be able to see the message therefore reaching more people. In other words it can also be said that social media sites are a word of mouth because any information which is put on these sites is repeated or shared with others frequently depending upon the content.\nThrough social networking sites, companies can interact with individual followers. This personal interaction can instill a feeling of loyalty into followers and potential customers. Also, by choosing whom to follow on these sites, products can reach a very narrow target audience. Social networking sites also include a vast amount of information about what products and services prospective clients might be interested in. Some of the ways to connect to social media are through mobile phones , laptops , personal computers provided they have an internet connection. Mobile phones have become a great way to connect to social media as there are applications which help users to connect to it. They can easily get notified whats happening or if some one has tried to connect with them.\nLabels: about social media marketing, advantages of social media marketing, social, Social Media, social media sites",

        "raw_content": "DREAM HOLIDAY IN BITS\n\u201cThe sea is so blue and the sky so wide, there is no better time to travel.\u201d Like the little snail in the popular children\u2019s book by Julia Donaldson, I too belong to those people who are constantly gripped with travel fever. Just a few days after a nice holiday ends, my big toe is itching again and I feel the unrest. \u201cI want to go, I want to leave!\u201d However, how do you reconcile the great desire to travel with family life, a job and other social obligations? Travel Bites are the solution! Instead of fewer, big holidays, you split the holiday into small appetisers. The revival of the mini-break is becoming a big trend and it has a lot to offer. With a small amount of planning and much desire to travel, the year can become a world tour and many small travel bites are awaiting us, the restless globetrotters.\nWhat is more beautiful than the sea? This is more of a rhetorical question for me. A walk on the beach gives you energy, a few hours on the sunbed with a good book heals almost all wounds and the sound of the waves is like music in my ears. I have loved the sea for as long as I can remember and have spent the most beautiful holidays of all time by the sea. An love which never ends, you could say.\nThe northern Adriatic is particularly popular for a road trip to the sea. The route can be reached by car in a tolerable car journey. You will be rewarded with beautiful sandy beaches and \u201cla dolce vita\u201d as we Austrian children of the 1980\u2019s know and love it. A few days at the beach in Jesolo can easily be combined with a trip to Venice.\nThe Croatian coast can also be reached easily by car. There are sporting adventures to be enjoyed around the idyllic small town of Zadar. Biking, running and sailing \u2013 and all this in a beautiful location.\nSuch a break can have a really good effect. Just now, when the weather is messy and cold, reluctant skiers like me hide in warm caves. As hibernation is unfortunately unthinkable, its socially acceptable counterpart is on the plan: Wellness!\nSpending the whole day in a cuddly bathrobe, reading, gossiping, sauna \u2013 this is the holy trinity for sloths like me. Such a break is, of course, at its best when spent with good friends as a weekend full of gossip and women\u2019s talk makes everyday life tolerable again. When this is crowned with a massage or a beauty treatment, you will feel like new again after a wellness break.\nTo the airport and off. Discover new things, fall in love with a city, eat your way through the day, get lost and find your way again. Cities are really great. Especially if you are visiting for the first time. As an avowed city flower, I love the anonymous hustle and bustle, the hectic pace of others and the flourishing life. A city trip is, I think, the mother of all travel bites. Within Europe itself, the best destinations are just an hour\u2019s flight away. So leave the office with the trolley bag on Friday and set off on into pure adventure. What are you waiting for?\nWell, I think that\u2019s it for my declaration of love for the pleasures of the mini-break. So I will continue to experience Europe in little bites and I am already looking forward to my next break from everyday life. Until I set off again, I will just give another quote from my favourite children\u2019s book and dream of \u201cwaves and swells, of sun and wind, from afar, which are full of wonders..\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Putting together these recent posts, and posts on the other web, I notice I'm much more casual about tagging. I can't bring myself to stop altogether. A post without tags seems somehow incomplete. But every time I add a tag I find myself asking \"Why am I doing this?\"\nFor years and years it's been possible to add \"site:fieldnotesontheweb.com\" to a search and find whatever you want on this blog (or likewise any other), whether I've tagged it or not. The difference, if any, is more a matter of curation.\nDonald Knuth, in putting together The Art of Computer Programming, made a great effort to put together a complete index, partly out of frustration with the textbooks he'd had to read as an undergrad. To him, this wasn't just a matter of searching for all occurrences of a given term (which was possible since the text of TOACP was in digital form), or dumping out a concordance of terms by page. Context mattered. The index entry for C. A. R. Hoare might include pages mentioning quicksort, even if Hoare's name doesn't appear on those pages, for example.\nI think tags on a blog fill a similar purpose. If you click on the link for a tag, you'd expect to see posts on that particular topic, regardless of the exact words. The link for annoyances on this blog includes several annoying things, whether or not I happened to include the word annoy or its forms in the posts. Machines are getting better at this sort of inference, but they're not great yet.\nI think that's a good theory, anyway, and I think human curation is still useful. On the other hand, I don't really have time to post on this blog, much less read through it and fix up tags. I've done some re-reading, but I've only really been through a couple hundred posts, and then only fixing typos and adding the occasional note or update. So what you get here is hit or miss. Not so much a careful taxonomy as a record of whatever I happened to be thinking at the time.\nIf I had time, I would probably trim the set of tags down significantly, particularly getting rid of tags that are completely redundant with search results, and probably consolidating a few similar tags down to one canonical choice. But not today, and not any time soon. If the tags as they stand make for more interesting browsing, great.\n(By the way, I'm not particularly proud that annoyances is currently the most populated tag on this blog)\nLabels: division of labor, tagging\nEnd of 1st line, \"web\" should be \"blog.\"",

        "raw_content": "Learn, Grow, Share\nBy Ron Pereira \u2022 February 2, 2018\nI had the strangest dream last night. I don\u2019t normally remember my dreams\u2026 but I remember this one. I was speaking to a man about continuous improvement. I\u2019m not sure who the man was\u2026 but in my dream I seemed to know him. Anyhow, during our conversation the man told me, \u201cRon, there are only three things we lean thinkers need to remember. We must learn, grow, and share. That\u2019s it. Learn. Grow. Share.\u201d\nA few seconds later I was kicked in the head by my 5-year-old daughter who managed to sneak into mom and dad\u2019s bed\u2026 so I have no idea what my response was in the dream. But, as I laid there reflecting on this message I realized it made a lot of sense.\nAs lean thinkers we need to learn. If you look at something like the Toyota Kata framework you may think it\u2019s a problem solving methodology. It\u2019s not. Yes, problems are ultimately countered as a result of practicing the Improvement and Coaching Kata\u2026 but, at its core Toyota Kata, Practical Problem Solving, and even Six Sigma\u2019s DMAIC are really about one thing\u2026 learning. If we can learn enough about our processes\u2026 what works and what doesn\u2019t work\u2026 well, we can overcome just about anything. Put another way, the organization that learns faster than their competition most definitely has the advantage.\nOnce we\u2019ve learned it\u2019s time to grow from the knowledge. If the experiment didn\u2019t turn out the way you expected\u2026 fantastic! You can learn and grow from the experience. And if you have a record month of sales\u2026 fantastic! You can learn and grow from the experience. So, really, here\u2019s the point the man in my dream was trying to make (I think!)\u2026 learning without growth is pointless.\nFinally, once we\u2019ve learned and grown it\u2019s time to share the good news with as many people as we can. Our world needs continuous improvement in a bad way my friends. And if you\u2019re reading this chances are you\u2019re REALLY into this continuous improvement stuff. So don\u2019t wait! Go out and offer to help those around you. Definitely help the company that pays your salary. But reach out to others in your community who need what you can offer. They don\u2019t even know to ask you for help\u2026 so you\u2019re going to have to take the first step.\nThe cool thing is once you do take that the first step the learning, growth, and sharing can begin all over again!\nIf I was to reflect on when I\u2019m feeling the most motivated at work, it\u2019s when I\u2019m somewhere in the cycle of Learn-Grow-Share. I\u2019m not sure the peak of my motivation occurs at the same point each time (maybe that is something I can now watch for), but I do know when I\u2019m not in the cycle, I don\u2019t feel as if I\u2019m contributing value. The learning doesn\u2019t have to be big and good leaders apply the nudges to help you remain in the cycle.\nKayode Alli\nFrom my company perspective, we have just completed Lean roll out and it created a lot of challenges. Having read this note, it\u2019s implied that every challenge presents another opportunity for continuous improvements. It\u2019s now occurs to me that Lean approach is a journey that never end.\nLooking Right at the Essence of TPS\tGA 200 | What We\u2019ve Learned from 200 Episodes with Ron Pereira and Past Guests",

        "raw_content": "While all states have statutes dealing with elder abuse, not all statutes are the same. Some protect persons who are older than a certain age, while others also protect disabled adults of any age. However, the statutory schemes have adopted common definitions and descriptions of elder abuse. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are five types of elder abuse:\nPhysical Abuse: The intentional use of physical force that results in acute or chronic illness, bodily injury, physical pain, functional impairment, distress or death.\nSexual Abuse or Abusive Sexual Contact: Forced and/or unwanted sexual interaction (both touching and non-touching acts) of any kind with an older adult.\nEmotional or Psychological Abuse: Verbal or nonverbal behavior that results in the infliction of anguish, mental pain, fear or distress.\nNeglect: Failure by a caregiver or other responsible person to protect an elder from harm or the failure to meet needs for essential medical care, nutrition, hydration, hygiene, clothing, basic activities of daily living, or shelter that results in a serious risk of compromised health and/or safety.\nFinancial Abuse or Exploitation: The illegal, unauthorized or improper use of an older individual\u2019s resources by a caregiver or other person in a trusting relationship for the benefit of someone other than the older individual.\nCommon Signs of Abuse and Neglect\nThese findings are not diagnostic of elder abuse, but rather should arouse suspicion to consider further evaluation:\nHas trouble sleeping\nSeems depressed or confused\nLoses weight for no reason\nDisplays signs of trauma, like rocking back and forth\nActs agitated or violent\nBecomes withdrawn\nStops taking part in activities he or she enjoys\nHas unexplained bruises, burns or scars\nLooks messy, with unwashed hair or dirty clothes\nDevelops bed sores or other preventable conditions\nSenior\u2019s finances suddenly change for the worse\nElder abuse is typically reportable to a state social services agency such as Adult Protective Services. If a report is made in good faith (i.e., without a bad faith intent to unnecessarily harm the person accused of abusing someone), the reporter is normally afforded immunity from suit. Some states may impose liability on someone who was required to report elder abuse but failed to do so, which subsequently caused injury to the vulnerable adult.\nStates normally have a registry of persons who have been convicted of or sanctioned for committing acts of elder abuse. Long-term care and other healthcare organizations are required to check the registry before they hire someone and refrain from hiring anyone who appears on the registry. This does not, however, mean that the problem is confined to nursing homes. In actuality, approximately 95% of elders live in a private home (either their own or a family member\u2019s). In fact, 90% of abusers are spouses, partners, adult children or other family members, which is one of the main reasons that the detection and prevention of elder abuse is complicated. Under those circumstances \u2212 living with their abusers \u2212 elderly adults may not be forthcoming about their experiences.\nElder abuse may be difficult to detect, but detecting it may save the life of an older adult.\nThis topic is covered extensively in our online course - Elder Abuse: Detection & Prevention.\nCategories: Emergency Medicine, General Risk Management, Medical-Legal Issues, Urgent Care",

        "raw_content": "Is Coconut Water a Suitable Sports Drink?\nCoconut water is currently one of the most popular natural thirst quenchers available; in the past few years it has become a permanent fixture in health food stores, cafes, supermarkets, convenience stores, and even some gyms. Owing to coconut water\u2019s purported weight-loss and health benefits, many runners and other workout enthusiasts can be forgiven for wondering if it is a good alternative to water or other sports drinks.\nCoconut water does have some benefits that water does not have: it contains electrolytes that can help athletes to rehydrate after exercise, for example. However, some of coconut water\u2019s potential health benefits have been inflated or are otherwise unproven by science \u2014 so before picking up a carton of this healthy hydration product it is important that athletes know all the facts.\nCoconut water is the liquid from the inside of a coconut. It is important that consumers don\u2019t confuse coconut water with coconut milk or cream, both of which contain much more fat. Coconut products have been subject to a lot of media attention in the last few years, mainly because of their purported health benefits, especially for those who are looking to lose weight. Although coconut contains saturated fat, it also contains fats known as medium-chain triglycerides, which the body absorbs differently to other fats.",

        "raw_content": "Settled in Seattle\nHello, BookEnders! It\u2019s been awhile. I\u2019ll mention here that this post is only loosely bookish, as it\u2019s really more of a life update about my first impressions of my LIS (library and information science) program. Though it does include a few fun facts about the history of the book!\nI\u2019ve finally reached a point that I had well and truly started to think would never come \u2013 I\u2019m feeling settled in Seattle (but certainly not Sleepless). I\u2019ve been in my new house for a month now; I\u2019ve been at my entertaining, challenging job serving food at a retirement home for about a little longer; and I finally finished my first week of graduate school. On a subconscious level, I\u2019d also been worrying about whether or not I was going into the right program. After making this enormous move across the country, what if I\u2019d made a mistake? What if I should\u2019ve just gone to University at Buffalo, the local program, or worse, not gone into library and information science at all?\nNew city, new school, new haircut. Also a fine view of my new bookshelf in my new room. Can you guess my favorite author from it?\nWithin my first few days of classes, though, it became clear to me that I\u2019m in exactly the right place. Although the classes are longer than I\u2019m used to, the discussions are engaging enough that I barely noticed. Likewise, the reading, although intense, has been fascinating. Did you know it\u2019s been almost two-thousand years since the actual form of the book has changed? Even when we switched from hand-written books to machine printed ones, we still stayed with the codex, a set of thin sheets, bound on one side, between two protective covers (re: the traditional, non e-book book). Also, silent reading wasn\u2019t discovered until the 11th or 12th century. Considering how much time I spend engaging in silent reading, I was amazed to realize I\u2019d never even thought about silent reading as a discovery, something that hadn\u2019t been around as long as writing.\nAnd then there are the people in my program. Maybe it\u2019s because the Seattle area has so many opportunities, or the professors have so many connections, but there isn\u2019t the competitiveness I feared. Instead, I\u2019m surrounded by brilliant people who have lots of overlapping interests with me (*cough* Tamora Pierce *cough*). Now instead of worrying I\u2019m in the wrong program, I get to worry about keeping up with all the talented, experienced students and professors around me.\nSpeaking of Tamora Pierce, I\u2019ll end this ramble of a post with a quote from one of my favorite books, Squire. \u201cSuddenly Kel\u2019s view of the next four years changed. She had expected hard work mixed with dread for the Ordeal of Knighthood at the end of it . . . Never had she thought she might have fun.\u201d\nAuthor\u2019s Note: I\u2019ve been thinking a lot over the past few weeks about the future of this blog. Namely, there are so many book blogs out there; how do I make mine worth reading, aside from staying true to the uniqueness of my own writerly voice? Do I put in too much of my personal life? And do I focus more on books themselves, or library science, as they aren\u2019t necessarily the same topic. I\u2019d love to hear any feedback in comments.\nReblog Book Club\nHello, Bookenders!\nThis is just a quick update to let you know about a new project I\u2019m taking part in. I\u2019m contributing to the discussion in, the Reblog Book Club, the first official Tumblr book group. Here\u2019s the first paragraph of my initial (spoiler-free) reflection on the first book, Rainbow Rowell\u2019s new novel, Fangirl:\n\u201cAs you may have surmised from my recent deluge of Fangirl posts, I\u2019m contributing to Tumblr\u2019s first official book club, the Reblog Book Club. Fangirl is Rainbow Rowell\u2019s newly released YA novel. Cath is a devoted fangirl to the mega-hit Simon Snow fantasy series, and a popular fanfiction author in her own right; her twin sister, Wren, used to be. As Cath heads off to her first year of college she explores how college life and Simon Snow diverge and how they overlap \u2013 and how she and Wren do.\u201d\nYou can find the rest of the review here, at the Reblog Book Club. My other posts will be put up periodically under my tumblr name, \u201cyour-ya-story.\u201d\nTagged as Book Reviews, Books, Fangirl, Rainbow Rowell, Reblog Book Club, Tumblr, YA Lit, Young Adult Literature",

Lent is a season of repentance, self-examination and awareness, not just of our own spiritual needs, but also of the needs of others. When we journey through Lent, we come to a greater understanding of Christ\u2019s call to minister in Christ\u2019s name to the needs of our brothers and sisters.\nThese daily readings will share the reason we do what we do through UMCOR. It is our privilege to see countless lives touched each day, thanks to the generous efforts of so many. Moved by God\u2019s generosity to us, we reach out to share the goodness of life with those who hurt. This is the vision that we pray you will share more deeply through these 40 days of simple readings.\nThis year, UMCOR marks its 75th anniversary.

        "raw_content": "WHY GENDER MATTERS OP!\nAre boys and girls really that different? Twenty years ago, doctors and researchers didn't think so. Back then, most experts believed that differences in how girls and boys behave are mainly due to differences in how they were treated by their parents, teachers, and friends.\nIt's hard to cling to that belief today. An avalanche of research over the past twenty years has shown that sex differences are more significant and profound than anybody guessed. Sex differences are real, biologically programmed, and important to how children are raised, disciplined, and educated.\nIn Why Gender Matters, psychologist and family physician Dr. Leonard Sax leads parents through the mystifying world of gender differences by explaining the biologically different ways in which children think, feel, and act. He addresses a host of issues, including discipline, learning, risk taking, aggression, sex, and drugs, and shows how boys and girls react in predictable ways to different situations.\nFor example, girls are born with more sensitive hearing than boys, and those differences increase as kids grow up. So when a grown man speaks to a girl in what he thinks is a normal voice, she may hear it as yelling. Conversely, boys who appear to be inattentive in class may just be sitting too far away to hear the teacher--especially if the teacher is female.\nLikewise, negative emotions are seated in an ancient structure of the brain called the amygdala. Girls develop an early connection between this area and the cerebral cortex, enabling them to talk about their feelings. In boys these links develop later. So if you ask a troubled adolescent boy to tell you what his feelings are, he often literally cannot say.\nDr. Sax offers fresh approaches to disciplining children, as well as gender-specific ways to help girls and boys avoid drugs and early sexual activity. He wants parents to understand and work with hardwired differences in children, but he also encourages them to push beyond gender-based stereotypes.\nA leading proponent of single-sex education, Dr. Sax points out specific instances where keeping boys and girls separate in the classroom has yielded striking educational, social, and interpersonal benefits. Despite the view of many educators and experts on child-rearing that sex differences should be ignored or overcome, parents and teachers would do better to recognize, understand, and make use of the biological differences that make a girl a girl, and a boy a boy.",

It will be one of the great experiences of your lives.\u201d\n\u201cAs the wealthiest nation on Earth, I believe the United States has a moral obligation to lead the fight against hunger and malnutrition, and to partner with others.\u201d\n\u201cForeign Assistance is not an end in itself. The purpose of aid must be to create the conditions where it is no longer needed.\u201d\n\u201cOne of the best ways countries can combat poverty is to use development assistance to promote a growing private sector, in which the poor can fully participate.\u201d\n\u2013 John Danilovich, former CEO Millennium Challenge Corporation\n\u201cBetween now and 2015, we must make sure that promises made become promises kept. The consequences of doing otherwise are profound: death, illness and despair, needless suffering, lost opportunities for millions upon millions of people.\u201d\n\u201cThe MDGs have been a fundamental framework for global development. A clear agenda, with measurable goals and targets, and a common vision have been crucial for this success. There is now an expectation around the world that sooner, rather than later, all these goals can and must be achieved.\u201d\n\u2013 UN Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs, Sha Zukang\n\u201cInvestment in AIDS will be repaid a thousand-fold in lives saved and communities held together.\u201d\n\u2013 Dr. Peter Piot, Executive Director, UNAIDS\n\u201cSo often the world sits idly by, watching ethnic conflicts flare up, as if these were mere entertainment rather than human beings whose lives are being destroyed.

If we can spend the early decades of the 21st century finding approaches that meet the needs of the poor in ways that generate profits and recognition for business, we will have found a sustainable way to reduce poverty in the world.\u201d\n\u201cWe live in a completely interdependent world, which simply means we can not escape each other.

To that high concept there can be no end save victory.\u201d\n\u201cThere is a common tendency to ignore the poor or to develop some rationalisation for the good fortune of the fortunate.\u201d\n\u201cAll that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.\u201d\n\u201cWe must adjust to changing times and still hold to unchanging principles.\u201d\n\u201cThere is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow men\u2014true nobility is being superior to your former self.\u201d\n\u201cWhere you live should not determine whether you live, or whether you die.\u201d\n\u201cLet there be justice for all. Let there be peace for all. Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all. Let each know that for each the body, the mind and the soul have been freed to fulfill themselves.\u201d\n\u201cIf you show people the problems and you show people the solutions they will be moved to act.\u201d\nPoverty Impact on National Security:\n\u201cHunger, disease and poverty can lead to global instability and leave a vacuum for extremism to fill. So instead of just managing poverty, we must offer nations and people a pathway out of poverty. And as president I\u2019ve made development a pillar of our foreign policy, alongside diplomacy and defense.\u201d\n\u201cDevelopment is a fundamental part of our national security. It is extreme poverty- the realities of access to water and food- which create the long-term drivers of our insecurity. Most wars are fought over scarce resources and that is going to accelerate in the future.\u201d\n\u2013 Rajiv Shah, head of USAID\n\u201cIn many respects, USAID\u2019s efforts can do as much- over the long term- to prevent conflict as the deterrent effect of a carrier strike group or a marine expeditionary force.\u201d\n\u2013 Commander of US Forces in Afghanistan Lieutenant General John Allen\n\u201cIt\u2019s a moral imperative, it\u2019s an economic imperative, and it is a security imperative. For we\u2019ve seen how spikes in food prices can plunge millions into poverty, which, in turn, can spark riots that cost lives, and can lead to instability. And this danger will only grow if a surging global population isn\u2019t matched by surging food production. So reducing malnutrition and hunger around the world advances international peace and security \u2014 and that includes the national security of the United States.\u201d\n\u201cI believe that the world will be a safer place if there is enough food to go around, that it will be a more stable place if children grow up with opportunities instead of frustrations. Furthermore, I can only assume that if the United States plays a role in helping to create prosperous societies, we will have friends to call on in times of need.\u201d\n\u201cAt a time of change and challenge at home and abroad, these investments will enhance the security of Americans, assure the future American leadership, and help build the foundations of peace, stability, and prosperity in the years ahead.\u201d\n\u2013 Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State\n\u201cDevelopment is a lot cheaper than sending soldiers.\u201d\n\u201cThe worst nightmare for al Qaeda is to come into a community that feels supported and has hope.\u201d\n\u2013 Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-SC)\n\u201cThe events of September 11, 2001, taught us that weak states, like Afghanistan, can pose as great a danger to our national interests as strong states. Poverty does not make poor people into terrorists and murderers. Yet poverty, weak institutions, and corruption can make weak states vulnerable to terrorist networks and drug cartels within their borders.\u201d\n\u2013 National Security Strategy of the Bush Administration\n\u201cWe are not saying that poverty causes terrorism, or disenfranchisement causes terrorism, but we can\u2019t mistake there are certain phenomena that contribute to it. Terrorism needs to be fought against and certainly attacked, but some of the underlying grievances that might in fact lead individuals astray to terrorism cannot be ignored.\u201d\n\u2013 John O. Brennan, Senior Counterterrorism Advisor to the White House\n\u201cPoverty, disease, debt, lack of quality education, rising population, and con\ufb02ict put massive pressure on developing countries. The combination of these pressures can breed hopelessness, which at its worst can be fertile ground for terrorism, extremism and instability. In helping poor countries stave off these pressures, we can improve global security and promote economic growth. Providing hope and opportunity to the poor creates stability and prosperity not just for them, but for the world\u201d\n\u2013 Initiative for Global Development Report 2004\n\u201cOur diplomacy and development capabilities must help prevent conflict, spur economic growth, strengthen weak and failing states, lift people out of poverty, combat climate change and epidemic disease, and strengthen institutions of democratic governance.\u201d\n\u2013 U.S. National Security Strategy\n\u201cOur Armed Forces will always be the cornerstone of our security, but they must be complemented. Our security also depends on diplomats who can act in every corner of the world, from grand capitals to dangerous outposts; development experts who can strengthen governance and support human dignity.\u201d\n\u201cProactively investing in stronger societies and human welfare is far more effective and efficient than responding after state collapse.\u201d\n\u201cWe will also help states avoid becoming terrorist safe havens by helping them build their capacity for responsible governance and security through development.\u201d\n\u201cThe United States has an interest in working with our allies to help the world\u2019s poorest countries grow into productive and prosperous economies governed by capable, democratic, and accountable state institutions. We will ensure a greater and more deliberate focus on a global development agenda across the United States Government, from policy analysis through policy implementation.\u201d\n\u201cBasic human rights cannot thrive in places where human beings do not have access to enough food, or clean water, or the medicine they need to survive.\u201d\n\u201cThe United States has a moral and strategic interest in promoting global health. When a child dies of a preventable disease, it offends our conscience; when a disease goes unchecked, it can endanger our own health; when children are sick, development is stalled.\u201d\n\u201cGlobal poverty is one of the most pressing moral challenges we face today. Yet, it\u2019s more than just a moral problem that billions of people around the world are struggling to survive. It is also in our national security interests that we reduce global poverty. Populations that struggle in extreme poverty are more likely to become mired in destabilizing conflicts, or worse, become havens or recruiting grounds for terrorist organizations. This is an issue that we cannot afford to neglect.\u201d\n\u2013 Congressman Adam Smith\nGlobal Poverty Impacts U.S. Jobs\n\u201cForeign aid must be viewed as an investment, not an expense.\u201d\n\u2013 Congresswoman Kay Granger (R-TX), State and Foreign Operations Subcommittee Chairwoman\n\u201cA healthier, less impoverished planet is good for all of us. From an economic standpoint, it allows people to contribute more to the marketplace and lead productive lives. U.S. foreign assistance opens new markets to U.S. goods and services and creates new trading partners and allies.\u201d\n\u2013 Gov. Mike Huckabee\n\u201cWhen foreign aid is carefully guided and targeted at a specific issue, it can and must be effective. Bill Gates has shown us that investments overseas can produce a strong return.\u201d\n\u2013 Congresswoman Kay Granger (R-TX)\n\u201cOur aid is work for the American people.\u201d\n\u201cBy doing good, we do well.\u201d\n\u201cIn this era of global and increasingly transparent supply chains, development is no longer a side concern or philanthropic exercise for most major companies. It is a matter of fundamental business success\u201d\n\u2013 Initiative for Global Development, \u201cThe Business Case for Foreign Aid Reform\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s in our country\u2019s best interest to get economic development in every corner of the world.\u201d\n\u2013 Jeff Immelt, CEO, GE\n\u201cLooking at these issues as a businessman, I believe that investing in the world\u2019s poorest people is the smartest way that our government spends money.\u201d\n\u201cWe have no choice but to stay engaged in the world. 95 percent of the people we want to sell something to live somewhere else, and America\u2019s access to and leadership in foreign markets is critical.\u201d\n\u2013 Tom Donohue, President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce\n\u201cFrom an economic perspective, what happens in one country has ripple effects throughout the world.\u201d\n\u2013 Chris Policinski, CEO Land O\u2019Lakes\nImpact on Overpopulation:\n\u201cThe key thing you can do to reduce population growth is actually improve health.\u201d\n\u201cThe hungry world cannot be fed until and unless the growth of its resources and the growth of its population come into balance. Each man and woman \u2013 and each nation \u2013 must make decisions of conscience and policy in the face of this great problem.\u201d\n\u201cOverpopulation in various countries has become a serious threat to the health of people and a grave obstacle to any attempt to organize peace on this planet.\u201d\n\u2013 Albert Enistein\n\u201cShort of nuclear war itself, population growth is the gravest issue the world faces. If we do not act, the problem will be solved by famine, riots, insurrection and war.\u201d\n\u2013 Robert McNamara, Former World Bank President",

        "raw_content": "Defining the Role of the Product Manager (interview)\nI (Nick Coster) was recently was interviewed by Phil Dobbie from BNET Australia about what makes a great Product Manager. To kick this discussion off I thought it would be better to try and define what the primary function of the Product Managment role actually is.\nBelow is the Audio of the interview. Also provided are the interview notes that I wrote to get ready. We would love to hear your feedback on this topic, as it is fundamental to product management as a profession.\nDefining a Product Manager | BTalk\nThe title \u201cproduct manger\u201d often means different things in different organisations. Ask two product managers what they do any you are likely to get quite different answers.\nSometimes includes:\nThe Product Manager will often work with these other roles but deliver better results to the business if they are able to focus on more strategic outcomes.\nThe Role of the Product Manager\nAt Brainmates we define the role of the product manager as having 3 key strategic responsibilities for the delivery and maintenance of a product or service:\nProvide more value than the competition\nHelp build a sustainable competitive advantage\nDeliver financial benefit to the business.\nWith this role definition, any activity that does not directly contribute to these outcomes is not part of the product management role.\n1) Provide more value than the competition\nThis means solving a problem or addressing a customer need that is currently unsatisfied in the marketplace.\nIt is about making it simpler, cheaper, more accessible or more affordable for the customer to have their specific problem addressed.\nIt doesn\u2019t mean giving extra stuff away for free if nobody wants it, or adding an unnecessary feature to something just to keep up with the competition.\nIt is the customer that will decide what the value of something is to them.\nExample: I don\u2019t like waiting in bank queues at the branch. If the bank was able to consistently provide me a way that made it faster to interact with them at the branch I would be a much happier customer. Instead I am looking for a competitor who will.\n2) Help build a sustainable competitive advantage\nIn addition to doing something that adds value, the product manager needs to look for opportunities that their business is able to deliver consistently as a differentiator to the competition.\nPrice should not be used as a competitive advantage because it is generally not sustainable to keep dropping prices.\nUnless there is come capability that the business has that allows them to always delivery at the lowest prices for comparable products, like Aldi or Walmart.\nIt also means that you shouldn\u2019t sell a product that will eventually put you out of business. If it is too expensive for the company to offer a product or service then it shouldn\u2019t be considered useful as a competitive differentiator.\nExample: Apple has done this with iTunes and the App store. If another competitor wants to target an Apple iPod user they need to make it easier to get the music that they want at a comparable price. We can see this happening with Google application store and Nokia Ovi Store but they will have a long way to go to beat Apple.\n3) Deliver financial benefit to the business.\nThe Product Manager role is ultimately to bring money in the door via the sale or consumption of it\u2019s products.\nThe product manager needs to understand and be responsible for the revenue and the costs of the product.\nIncreased profit can be created by either:\nIncreasing the price of the product or increasing the volume of the sales of the product \u2013 usually by delivering more value to the customers\nDecreasing the costs to deliver the product to the customer\nTo do this the product manager has to have a great understanding of their customers and non-customers in their chosen market.\nThis will allow them to tune in to the unmet needs that may represent new future business opportunities\nMany product managers are busy running the operations of their product, however great product managers are addressing these 3 strategic outcomes to help create products that their customers love.",

        "raw_content": "Importance of Website Design for Product Management\nA colleague of mine, Dean Wood from Clear Choice Usability, spent much of 2007 travelling around Europe, the US and Asia. During that time, he undertook research on a range of International luxury products and their associated websites. He conducted in depth, one-on-one interviews with users who had a propensity to purchase luxury products. I\u2019ve attached his research (1.1 MB) for your review.\nEven though the research targeted a specific product type (luxury products) and a specific type of user, I believe we can extrapolate and apply his findings within the Product Management domain.\nProduct Managers are key stakeholders in the development of the website that promotes and supports their product.\nThe tasks that a customer can complete online and the product information available online contributes to the overall customer experience. Product Managers are the custodian of the overall, end-to-end customer experience and the architecture of the website should not simply be left to user experience designers and information architects.\nWhen architecting any product website, ensure that there is sufficient and useful product information available.\nProduct information should be easily accessible to help customers make an informed purchasing decision. A good website will increase sales and reduce the cost per sale as customers know exactly what they want when they call or visit your retail store. This may sound simple, but from Dean\u2019s research many companies fail to deliver.\nRead Dean\u2019s research paper and tell us what you think.",

Keep in mind that probability itself is not real, it is a mathematical concept.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Rise of the Preppers\nThe Legacy of Structuralism: An Interview with Paul-Fran\u00e7ois Tremlett (Part 1) \u2192\nDoes Religion Need Rescuing? Behold the Knights in Shining Armor!\nPosted on February 3, 2012 by Philip L. Tite\nI recently received the Fall/Winter issue of McGill News, the alumni magazine for McGill University. Although I normally don\u2019t find much in the McGill News of interest (usually I find articles on business or technological advances, athletic accomplishments, or stunning tales of the \u201c1%\u201d of McGill graduates, usually with the typical subtext for the rest of us to make significant financial donations to the university), this time I did not immediate drop the magazine into the recycle bin. Instead, my attention was caught by an article entitled \u201cIn Defence of Religion\u201d by Mark Reynolds. A lovely picture of Arvind Sharma, who is the Birks Professor of Comparative Religion in the Faculty of Religious Studies and a noted scholar in the phenomenology of religion, takes up about 1/6th of the page. Stunned that McGill\u2019s religious studies program would have a full article on it, especially with a focus on one of the professors that I knew from my days as a doctoral student at McGill, I read through the article with great interest.\nSince the violent events of 9/11, the article observes, religion has come under attack in popular perceptions. Fueled by media coverage, Reynolds claims that \u201cthe mainstream consensus has come to define religion by its most extreme and violent adherents.\u201d Thus, religion has become a problem. Sharma is presented as resisting this very tendency to dismiss religion as a social ill. However, Sharma, at least as presented in this article, does not wish to articulate a more accurate social and ideological description of various religious traditions (i.e., to correct errors in the data collection), nor does he call for explanatory analysis of both those traditions and the ideological processes at work in the emergence and perpetuation of the \u201cmainstream consensus\u201d (i.e., to make sense of those data sets). Rather Sharma has a \u201cfaith in religion\u2019s ability to inspire our better natures\u201d due to the \u201cpositive potential of religion\u201d to make the world a better place. To this end, he helped organize the Global Conference on World Religions After 9/11 held in 2006. This very well attended conference included such key speakers as Deepak Chopra, Steven Katz, Gregory Baum, Tariq Ramadan, and even the Dalai Lama.\nThe Conference set forth three resolutions to try to improve the role of religion in international affairs: (1) \u201cthat, whenever in the world there are religious schools (seminary, or yeshiva, or madrasah, etc) they should teach a course on world religions\u201d (evoking the claim that education leads to moral and peaceful progress in society); (2) \u201cthat violating the sanctity of the scriptures of any religion amounts to violating the sanctity of the scriptures of all religions\u201d (which takes on new meaning in light of the Florida Qur\u2019an burning); and (3) \u201cfinally, that the religions of the world should come together to formulate a Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the World\u2019s Religions\u201d (situating the entire Conference within an inter-faith dialogue that articulates a humanistic \u201ccore\u201d in all religions).\nThis article raised serious issues for me as a scholar of religion, especially as this is a public presentation of one of the leading program for religious studies in Canada. Specifically, I had to ask myself: Is this what our job as scholars \u2013 as public intellectuals \u2013 should be? This article represents an understanding of religious studies that is grounded in the value of the \u201ccaretaking\u201d of traditions (to evoke Russell McCutcheon apt terminology). As a discipline, religious studies holds value in that its practitioners (scholars as researchers and teachers) and resources (institutional) only hold value (or primarily hold value) when they are engaged in protecting insider concerns, defending the very integrity of a religious tradition. Couched within this discourse is the place of inter-faith dialogue, an area of work that has gain a solid footing within the discipline.\nAll of this shifts our academic focus away from understanding and explaining social phenomena, toward a discursive game of claiming moral authority (as scholars) to (1) tell those we label \u201creligious\u201d how they should be religious, and (2) to authoritatively safeguard those very traditions as essentially beneficial to humankind (and thus to delegitimize other, non-beneficial acts, individuals, or social groups as not authentically religious). The former is a prescriptive move (rather than a descriptive move with subsequent theorization of the constructed data sets) that is founded upon the universalizing and essentializing premise of the later. Often a humanistic ethic underlies arguments in favor of the inclusion of the study of religion in the modern university (as if that were the only way to justify our existence).\nAlthough I do agree that the academic study of religion \u2013 like other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences \u2013 can contribute to broader public dialogues over cultural issues, I am not convinced that the approach articulated in this article is really helpful. McCutcheon has offered (in my opinion) a definitive and devastating attack on scholars adopting the role of \u201ccaretaker\u201d of religions (in his classic article \u201cA Default of Critical Intelligence?\u201d published in the Journal of the American Academy of Religion in 1997; also his book, Religion and the Domestication of Dissent). Other scholars have further articulated various problems with the phenomenological approach to comparative religious studies, especially when such approaches lead to transhistorical, normative truth claims. For myself, I think that religious studies scholars can offer something far more useful to public discourse than simply re-stating, prescriptively correcting, and defending insider truth claims (especially when scholars articulate an \u201cauthentic\u201d version of a given tradition).\nAs highly trained cultural critics engaged in redescribing insider truth claims and methodologically delimited theorization of those data sets we have constructed, we are in a place qua scholars to elucidate those ideological processes that are at play within cultural and social interactions, interactions that result in discursive \u201cnormative\u201d scripts being played out. What economic, social, and geopolitical forces are at work between competing claims to a commonsense, normative worldview? What rhetorical acts are utilized in both legitimization and delegitimization of those posited worldviews? Are we as scholars culpable in such discursive engagements (what are our ideological blinders)? Answering such questions (and empowering students to struggle with such questions, even if that means they disagree with us) strikes me as a more valuable and unique contribution to public discourse. It is in this task of asking questions, detecting ideological processes, and testing answers that the scholar of religion can function as a public intellectual; not, however, as a public intellectual whose function or concern is to \u201cprotect\u201d or \u201cfurther\u201d a specific social body, political agenda, or nation state (in this sense I\u2019m following Bertrand Russell\u2019s philosophy of education), but in better understanding those very mechanisms of social formation.\nSo are we defenders of religion? Is this our job as scholars of religion? For myself, I don\u2019t think it is useful for us to don our scholarship as if we were medieval knights in shining armor rushing into high castle towers in order to rescue the poor damsel in distress, the beautifully adorned maiden called World Religions. Rather than living in fairytale conceptions of our role, I think we are better off trying to make sense of our world with the intellectual tools of scholarship.\nThis entry was posted in Academy, Philip L.

Bookmark the permalink.\n3 Responses to Does Religion Need Rescuing? Behold the Knights in Shining Armor!\nIncredible post\u2026 I\u2019m just now catching up on my Bulletin reading. \ud83d\ude42 This is a concern for me as a teacher\u2026 I try not to vilify or glorify the world religions I teach. Often times I like to present my students with disparate representations of these traditions and practices (via readings, film, textual analysis, etc.) and have them hash out the details and pose various concerns. I can understand your skepticism of the above mentioned scholarship\u2026 because it does appear to privelege a particular view of religion (and thereby negating any semblence of objectivity a scholar could attempt to have regarding that subject). My current line of research\u2026 (Nazi intellectuals and theologians) has made me increasingly leery of scholars who promote their political or religious (or anti-religious) agendas in their work. However, part of me does think that scholars (especially those in public institutions) have an obligation to get the population talking and learning more about religious traditions of which the population seems to know little about historically. Religious Studies scholars may feel compelled to \u2018protect\u2019 religion\u2026 and the impetus to glorify human rights is seemingly natural for \u2026well\u2026 humans (especially those not always counted in history as fully human)\u2026 but I\u2019m, in the name of scholarly self-preservation, in favor of \u2018protecting\u2019 religious studies as a discipline \u2026 religion, however, will have to fend for itself. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks for the great questions\u2026 I want my students to read this!\nThanks Kate, As always I appreciate your feedback. I agree with you that scholars have a responsibility to the broader public (or \u201cpublics\u201d) with regard to religious traditions. I don\u2019t think it helpful for us to withdraw into our ivory towers and ignore the world around us, except as mere data for our work if indeed we haven\u2019t fallen into narcissistic navel gazing. The question in my mind is what is the best way we can do this *as* scholars (we wear other hats in life, for sure)? For me we offer something that church leaders, politicians, etc may not \u2026 again, *as* scholars; namely, the \u201ctask of asking questions, detecting ideological processes, and testing answers\u201d along with training students to become critical thinkers. This is an important part of the role of the humanities (in my opinion), as a type of \u201capplied humanities\u201d. But to do this job effectively, we need to try to be free of extraneous agendas (we have agendas, just different ones), such as being advocates for or against religious traditions. Btw, you mentioned an important point: scholarly self-preservation. In the humanities, or at least religious studies, that seems to be a central definitional matter and thus perhaps one of the problems in our discipline. We are constantly trying to find practical or overt reasons to justify our institutional existence, which may indeed deter us from doing something useful as scholars. Interesting stuff to consider, for sure. Thanks.\nPingback: One Thing About Religious Studies \u00ab Canonical Dilemma",

        "raw_content": "Ex-Ohio State wrestlers accuse Rep. Jim Jordan of knowing about sexual abuse by team doctor\nRep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, speaks with the media as he arrives for a deposition before the House Judiciary Committee. (AP)\nMultiple former Ohio State wrestlers have gone on the record accusing Jim Jordan, a prominent Republican Congressman from Ohio, of turning a blind eye to alleged sexual abuse by Dr. Richard Strauss, a longtime Ohio State team doctor.\nIn April, Ohio State announced an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Strauss, who died in 2005 at age 67, after one alleged victim came forward saying he and other athletes were abused by Strauss \u201cfrom the mid-1970s to the 1990s.\u201d Jordan, an assistant coach for the Buckeyes from 1986 to 1994, has denied having any knowledge of the alleged abuse.\nHowever, several of his former wrestlers told NBC News that they have a hard time believing that to be the case.\nThree former wrestlers told NBC News that it was common knowledge that Strauss showered regularly with the students and inappropriately touched them during appointments, and said it would have been impossible for Jordan to be unaware; one wrestler said he told Jordan directly about the abuse.\nFormer head coach Russ Hellickson, Jordan\u2019s mentor, said in a recent video \u2014 made by Mike DiSabato, a former wrestler \u2014 that Hellickson had told Strauss that he was being too \u201chands on\u201d with students. DiSabato, whose allegations against Strauss prompted Ohio State to open its investigation, called Jordan a \u201cliar.\u201d\n\u201cI considered Jim Jordan a friend,\u201d DiSabato said. \u201cBut at the end of the day, he is absolutely lying if he says he doesn\u2019t know what was going on.\u201d\nWhen reached by NBC, Jordan, through a spokesperson, once again denied having any knowledge of Strauss\u2019 alleged misdeeds.\nJordan became the U.S. Rep. for Ohio\u2019s 4th district in 2007, founded the House Freedom Caucus and has been mentioned as a possible replacement for Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.\nThree former Ohio State wrestlers come forward\nDiSabato says he was sexually assaulted by Strauss and told the university about it on multiple occasions. Another former OSU wrestler, Dunyasha Yetts, told NBC he once went to Strauss who \u201cstarted pulling down\u201d his shorts after he visited the doctor with a thumb injury. Following that incident, Yetts said he told coaches, including Jordan, what happened. On top of that, a third former OSU wrestler who requested anonymity told NBC that rumors about Strauss were so prevalent that Jordan could not have possibly avoided them.\nA former teammate of DiSabato\u2019s who asked not to be identified said he never told Jordan directly that Strauss had abused him. But there is no way Jordan could have avoided the rumors \u201cbecause it was all over the locker room.\u201d\n\u201cI love Jimmy to death,\u201d the ex-wrestler said. \u201cIt was a head-scratcher to me why he would say he didn\u2019t know anything. Doc used to take showers with the team even though he didn\u2019t do any workouts, and everybody used to snicker about how you go into his office for a sore shoulder and he tells you to take your pants down.\u201d\nDetails of Ohio State\u2019s investigation\nOhio State commissioned an independent investigation in April and announced in May that the investigation had expanded after athletes from an array of programs \u2014 not just wrestling \u2014 came forward, including football, gymnastics, ice hockey, volleyball and more. In all, Ohio State says it has received \u201creports of sexual misconduct committed by Strauss\u201d from athletes in 14 sports.\nAt that time, the school divulged that Strauss also worked at the Ohio State medical center and student health center, meaning he treated students outside of athletics, as well. The school says it has received reports from patients from Student Health Services.\nThe school told NBC that \u201cmore than 150 former students and witnesses\u201d have been interviewed thus far by the law firm, Perkins Coie, that is leading the investigation. In May, the school said the investigation was referred to local authorities \u201cfor any potential criminal investigation.\u201d\n\u201cOur efforts will continue to be focused on uncovering what may have happened during this era, what university leaders at the time may have known, and whether any response at the time was appropriate,\u201d the university said in a statement to NBC. \u201cOnce the independent investigation has been completed, we will be in a position to consider what further action might be appropriate.\u201d\nJordan is expected to be questioned, per NBC, but has not yet been interviewed.\nLarry Nassar, Michigan State scandal prompts victims to come forward\nDiSabato said the scandal involving former USA Gymnastics and Michigan State doctor Larry Nassar prompted he and other former Ohio State athletes to speak out about the abuse they say they endured from Strauss.\nDiSabato estimates that hundreds of Ohio State athletes could have been assaulted by Strauss.\n\u201cStrauss sexually assaulted male athletes in at least fifteen varsity sports during his employment at OSU from 1978 through 1998,\u201d DiSabato wrote in a June 26 email to Kathleen M. Trafford of Porter Wright Morris & Arthur, the Columbus-based law firm that represents Ohio State. \u201cAthlete victims include members of the following programs: football, basketball, wrestling, swimming, cheerleading, volleyball, lacrosse, gymnastics, ice hockey, soccer, baseball, tennis, track and cross country.\u201d\nChillingly, DiSabato added: \u201cBased on testimony from victim athletes from each of the aforementioned varsity sports, we estimate that Strauss sexually assaulted and/or raped a minimum of 1,500/2,000 athletes at OSU from 1978 through 1998.\u201d\nJordan was an accomplished wrestler\nBefore rising to political prominence, Jordan, an Ohio native, was a two-time NCAA wrestling champion at the University of Wisconsin. Notably, he defeated future Olympic gold medalist John Smith to win the NCAA title in 1985.\nAfter his collegiate career ended, he returned to Ohio to get his master\u2019s degree and serve as an assistant coach at Ohio State for eight years. From there, he entered the political world.",

        "raw_content": "Cryptocurrencies to survive sell-off - Allianz's El-Erian\nNEW YORK (Reuters) - Cryptocurrencies are here to stay despite a prolonged slump this year, and will gain wider acceptance after the recent entry of more institutional investors in the space, Mohamed El-Erian, chief economic adviser at Allianz, said on Tuesday.\nFILE PHOTO: Bitcoin.com buttons are seen displayed on the floor of the Consensus 2018 blockchain technology conference in New York City, New York, U.S., May 16, 2018. REUTERS/Mike Segar/File Photo\nAt a CoinDesk conference called \u201cConsensus: Invest in New York,\u201d El-Erian said the participation of institutional investors in various crypto projects, even as retail investors have shied away because of price declines, was a positive sign.\n\u201cI think cryptocurrencies will exist, they will become more and more widespread, but they will be part of an ecosystem. They will not be dominant as some of the early adopters believed them to be,\u201d El-Erian said.\nHe disclosed that he had opened a bitcoin account for $400, but only for the purpose of testing it.\nEl-Erian was positive about the outlook for crypto assets because of the growing interest from institutional investors.\n\u201cWe are seeing a rotation going on - retail is becoming more reasonable if you like,\u201d he said. \u201cThe exuberance is behind us, and institutions are starting to establish a foothold and that\u2019s good long-term.\u201d\nThe former PIMCO co-chief investment officer emphasized that cryptocurrencies are commodities, not currencies.\n\u201cThey don\u2019t have the intrinsic attributes of a currency. It is not going to replace money,\u201d he added.\nVirtual currencies have been in a steep downtrend since the beginning of the year amid increased regulatory scrutiny and amid some instances of hacks and thefts at crypto exchanges.\nBitcoin earlier this week fell to a 14-month low of $3,462.57 on Bitstamp, and was last up marginally at $3,682.10 BTC=BTSP. It has lost 74 percent of its value so far this year, after hitting nearly $20,000 in December last year.\nEl-Erian said the recent crypto meltdown was not surprising. The market is going through a cycle - that of overconsumption that took bitcoin to nearly $20,000 and overproduction that has resulted in the current sell-off, he added.\nEl-Erian said this is healthy for the market.\nHe admitted he was initially skeptical about bitcoin because it was first presented to him as a global currency, which was never really the case. But he has since changed his mind.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t initially distinguish between cryptocurrency and the underlying technology. I treated it all as one,\u201d El-Erian said. \u201cAs I evolved ... I learned in the process.\u201d\nBlockchain, the technology that underpins digital currencies, is a digital ledger that provides a secure way of making and recording transactions.\nReporting by Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss in New York; Editing by Chizu Nomiyama and Matthew Lewis",

        "raw_content": "Singapore's hopes rest on reluctant Li Jia Wei\nSINGAPORE (Reuters) - After nearly 50 years without a medal, Singapore is pinning its Olympic dreams on a China-born table tennis player who says she loves playing the piano more than her sport.\nSingapore's Li Jia Wei (R) hits a return to compatriot Sun Beibei while practicing at the Singapore Table Tennis Association in Singapore in this picture taken April 11, 2008. After nearly 50 years without a medal, Singapore is pinning its Olympic dreams on a China-born table tennis player who says she loves playing the piano more than her sport. REUTERS/Vivek Prakash\nLi Jia Wei, 26, the captain of a team ranked eighth in the world by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF), hopes to win a medal in Beijing in August with a squad of 10, eight of whom were born in China.\nIn a well-lit sports hall full of bright blue playing tables, Li\u2019s 1.73-metre, willowy frame stiffens and her pixie-like face darkens when she whips the ball over the net.\nAlthough each serve is filled with power and spin, Li admits she does not play the game with passion.\n\u201cI don\u2019t like the game. I just did it when I was younger to condition my body,\u201d she said. \u201cNow it is my career and I have to face it.\u201d\nShe is, however, committed to giving her best in Beijing. \u201cIf I didn\u2019t think getting a medal was possible there\u2019s no use going to play,\u201d she said. \u201cGetting a gold medal will be very, very difficult because of the China team.\u201d\nZHANG FAVOURITE\nHalf of the world\u2019s top 10 female players are from China but there would be no torn loyalties during the Games for those on the Singapore team, said Beijing-born Li.\n\u201cI go back to China often to compete. In terms of representing Singapore, I came here when I was 13 or 14 and every step of my development was given to me by Singapore. So when I take part in competitions I will try my best,\u201d she said.\nSingapore, a Southeast Asian city of 4.6 million people, has never won a gold medal at the Games and the closest it got was a silver for men\u2019s weightlifting in 1960.\nBy contrast, China\u2019s top table tennis player Zhang Yining, who is ranked the number one female player in the world, is a hot favorite for a gold medal in Beijing. She won two gold medals in Athens for the singles and doubles events four years ago.\nLi almost had a glory finish in Athens but she lost the bronze medal to South Korean Kim Kyung-ah.\nDespite living in Singapore for 13 years, Li speaks little English and prefers to converse in her native Mandarin. Talent scouted in Beijing when she was 14 by Singaporean officials, Li was whisked away to the city-state for training, returning to China only once a year to see her parents.\nLi, now a Singapore citizen, is one of many foreign-born athletes groomed under Singapore\u2019s Foreign Sports Talent Scheme.\nUnder the scheme, children from overseas are brought into Singapore under contracts to train. Once they are good enough, they trade in their home-country citizenship to play for the city-state in international competitions.\n\u201cWe try to look for young, talented players below the age of 16 so that we have time to groom them technically and help them assimilate to the society,\u201d said Jackie Tay, director of the Singapore Table Tennis Association.\nCritics say the scheme cuts out local talent in sports and is a shortcut to obtaining medals.\nSingapore is not alone in this tactic, with other countries such as the Netherlands also fielding a highly ranked China-born table tennis player.\n\u201cThe Singapore Sports Council encourages the national sports associations to think long-term, focus on local youth development and to see the recruitment of foreign talent as a short-term initiative to raise the standards in Singapore,\u201d said Wayde Clews of the Singapore Sports Council.\nLi may not be the best ambassador for encouraging youngsters. After 20 years of playing table tennis, she looks bored when talking about the sport, but mention shopping or playing the piano and her face brightens instantly.\n\u201cI like playing Fur Elise,\u201d she said, referring to the piano solo by Beethoven, adding that she was taking piano lessons in Singapore.\nRecognizing that sports is a career not kind to age, Li said that she might stop playing professionally in a few years.\n\u201cIf there was an Olympics every year I may still play, but in four years I will be old and I have more important things to do with my life.\u201d\nEditing by Neil Chatterjee and Clare Fallon",

        "raw_content": "Tag: pasadena-playhouse\nOrganized Confusion | \u201cPirates of Penzance\u201d @ Pasadena Playhouse\nI\u2019ve enjoyed the music and the story of Gilbert and Sullivan\u2018s The Pirates of Penzance ever since I saw the Los Angeles production of the New York Shakespeare Festival version in 1981, with Pam Dawber, Andy Gibb, Barry Bostwick, and Jo Anne Worley in the roles made famous in New York by Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith, Kevin Kline, and Estelle Parsons. I\u2019ve listened to the New York cast album of that show until it was etched in my brain. So when I learned that the The Pasadena Playhouse (FB) was presenting Pirates, my interest was peaked \u2014 peaked enough to overcome a slight bias I\u2019ve had against going to the Playhouse since the bankruptcy in 2010 and the style of the Sheldon Epps era (note: this wasn\u2019t against the few shows I\u2019ve seen; more against just getting tickets and potentially subscribing). So I started exploring tickets\u2026\n\u2026 and I quickly discovered that, just as the NYSF version of Pirates was very much unlike your father\u2019s D\u2019Oyly Carte operetta ; this version of Pirates was going to be very much unlike my generation\u2019s NYSF version. Oh, the basic story was the same, but the staging \u2014 it was staging for a non-traditional generation. This was made clear when booking tickets, and I learned that this wasn\u2019t a proscenium show (and the Playhouse is a proscenium theatre). This show was being advertised as a beach party; all of the traditional seats in the theatre were not being used. The action would take place in the audience, and there would be seating in and around the stage, with bleachers around the action. What?!?!?!?\u203d\u203d\u203d Totally unsure of where I might be sitting, we booked tickets in what was being called the Promenade. We even got tickets with a seat number and everything. You can see the warped seating chart a little lower down in this writeup. The top is the back of the actual stage; the bottom is the entrance to the auditorium.\nWe saw the show yesterday afternoon, and discovered what they had done to the theatre. They had erected a platform over most of the normal seating and the stage. There were bleachers on the side and on the stage, with a dock structure and a raised platform with a kiddie pool over what would be approximately rows L-N of the audience. There was a tiki bar serving drinks throughout the show, and a few benches surrounding ball pits filled with beach balls. The atmosphere was fun and frivolity, and \u2026 yes \u2026 this was a beach party. That \u201cPromenade\u201d seat? Those seats were around and on the stage \u2014 yes, you could sit anywhere that wasn\u2019t a formal seat with a back. On a bench. On the dock. On the floor. In a kiddie pool. You just had to be prepared for an actor to point and you and move you out of the way, and you could just go and sit anywhere else. It was organized mayhem, unlike anything I\u2019ve ever seen at the Pasadena Playhouse (which is normally quite staid) \u2014 and almost unlike anything I\u2019ve seen in any other theatre (we\u2019ll we did sit on the stage in La Mirada\u2019s Carrie, but that was very different). During the show, the actors were in and around you, standing directly in front of you, interacting with the audience, playing with the kids, making audience part of the actors at times. Before the show, they were wandering around, playing all sorts of songs (including TMBG), and throwing balls at the audience, and generally having a fun time.\nSo as the show started we had no idea what to expect. We were sitting on a bench next to a ball pit near the dock (essentially, just to the right of the words \u201cThe Dock\u201d on the image to your right, near the L of the dock). There are times we moved. There are times the performers were right next to us. It was non-traditional, and it was a hoot.\nThe performance itself stuck to the traditional Pirates narrative; which is summarized in a shorter form here; and which R&H licensing summarizes as \u201cWhen the hero of THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE was but a boy, his father instructed his nurse to have him apprenticed as a pilot. She thought he said \u2018pirate\u2019 and thus the zany troubles began.\u201d Some songs were converted to recitative; and of course the songs added from other shows for the NYSF version weren\u2019t there. The performance ran just about 80 minutes, with one one-minute (yes, one-minute) intermission. There were a few interpolations of modern songs that worked really, really well.\nThis truly was organized, improvised, mayhem. But the best mayhem is well-planned, and so credit here goes to Sean Graney (FB), the director (and artistic director of The Hypocrites (FB), who developed this show); Andra Velis Simon (FB), the musical director; Katie Spelman (FB), the choreographer; Miranda Anderson (FB); the production stage manager; and Nikki Hyde (FB), the assistant stage manager. I include the latter two because they were on stage, dressed as life-guards, making sure the action went where it was supposed to go. This team kept the show on focus and moving forward, in and around the great distraction that an unpredictable audience could be.\nAs for the actors, they had an even harder job, for they were also the orchestra \u2014 using almost any instrument you can think of. Guitars, banjos, ukuleles (I don\u2019t think a ukulele has been on stage at the Playhouse since Radio Gals in 1992), spoons, clarinets, flutes, mandolins, fiddles, saws, accordions \u2026. you get the idea. There was also sharing of roles: the actress playing Mabel also played Ruth, and both the daughters and the pirates, at times, became the police officers. The cast consisted of Doug Pawlik (FB) [Freddy]; Shawn Pfatsch [Pirate King, Major GeneralUS]; Matt Kahler (FB) [Major General]; Dana Omar (FB) [Ruth / Mabel]; Leslie Ann Sheppard (\u2605FB; FB); [Daughter, Ruth/MabelUS]; Amanda Raquel Martinez [Daughter]; Tina Mu\u00f1oz-Pandya (FB) [Daughter]; Lauren Vogel (FB) [Pirate]; Mario Aivazian (FB) [Pirate, Pirate KingUS, FreddyUS]; and Eduardo Xavier Curley-Carrillo (FB) [Pirate]. All of them were great and clearly having the time of their life (and loving the interaction with the audience). A few notes and thoughts: Pawlik gave Freddy just the right amount of youthful naivete and bravado to make things work; Pfatsch kept evoking Bostwick/Kline in my head, but he played with the role in a very different way that was a joy to see. Kahler handled Modern Major General well, and I loved the interstitial from the daughter. I liked Omar\u2019s dual characterization and her switching back and forth; she had a lovely voice \u2014 plus, she played the banjo and the accordion \u2014 a skill that will earn her tens and tens of dollars (and she better keep her car locked). The daughters were cute (especially with the moustaches), and I wish I had known that Sheppard was a knitter (my wife had her knitting there). Of the pirates, my eye was drawn to Vogel both for her voice and musical skills, as well as how she was having fun playing with her role. But all of these actors were just great and a joy to watch.\nI\u2019ll also note that this is one of the few productions I\u2019ve seen at the Playhouse that didn\u2019t have a 100% Equity cast; I don\u2019t know if they are getting Equity cards from this show. AEA is a bit controversial here in Los Angeles with what they did to the intimate theatre scene, and I\u2019m hearing rumblings they are going after membership companies next (with plans to have local minimum wage laws take precedence over AEA agreements/codes). I\u2019m glad I\u2019m not an actor trying to decide what to do about my union.\nFinally, turning to the technical and production side: Tom Burch\u2018s scenic design transformed the Playhouse, and was remarkably inventive with the docks, benches, pools, and everything else. I can\u2019t think of a similar transformation of the venue in all the years we were there (going back to 1989). Incredible. This worked well with Maria DeFabo Akin (FB)\u2019s properties design \u2014 not only all the beach balls and other set accouterments, but clever little tricks to signal characters, the cigarette holders, the rubber ducks, and such. Also supporting this was Alison Siple (FB)\u2019s costume design; no credits were provided for the wig design that transformed Mabel. From down where we sat, Kevin O\u2019Donnell (FB)\u2019s sound design worked well; the LA Times indicated there might be a sound problem in the rafters of the bleachers. We didn\u2019t see that. Heather Gilbert (FB)\u2019s lighting design established the mood well. This version of Pirates was adapted by Sean Graney (FB), and co-adapted by Kevin O\u2019Donnell (FB). Other credits: Joe Will [General Manager]; Chris Cook [Production Manager]; Brad Enlow (FB) [Technical Director]; and Davidson & Choy Publicity (FB) [Press Representative]. Pirates of Penzance was presented/produced by The Pasadena Playhouse (FB) , Danny Feldman (Producing Artistic Director) in association with The Hypocrites (FB).\nPirates of Penzance has been extended at The Pasadena Playhouse (FB), now closing on February 25. Tickets are available through the Playhouse box office. Discount tickets may be available through Goldstar, TodayTix, or LA Stage Tix. This show is a lot of fun and you\u2019ll have a wonderful time \u2014 just don\u2019t expect your father\u2019s stuffy old theatre. Bring the kids and they\u2019ll have a lot of fun as well \u2014 it is a great introduction to theatre in an environment where they don\u2019t have to sit absolutely still.\nThis show has certainly made me rethink what I think about the Playhouse; I think we\u2019ll be back more often. Certainly, with the dormancy of the Colony Theatre, we\u2019ve been trying to find an affordable mid-size theatre. When we left the Playhouse, tickets were over $1000 per season, which was ridiculous. Their new options for membership certainly look more affordable; now they just need a reliable show mix.\nFebruary starts with the Cantor\u2019s Concert at Temple Ahavat Shalom (FB). The following weekend brings our first Actors Co-op (FB) production of 2018: A Walk in the Woods. Mid-week brings opera: specifically, Candide at LA Opera (FB). That is followed the next weekend by the first production of the Chromolume Theatre (FB) 2018 season, Dessa Rose. The month concludes with James and the Giant Peach at the Chance Theatre (FB) in the Anaheim Hills, and tickets for Dublin Irish Dance Stepping Out at the Saroya (the venue formerly known as the Valley Performing Arts Center (VPAC)) (FB).\nApril looks to be a busy month. It starts with Love Never Dies at the Hollywood Pantages (FB) [as an aside, there was just a great interview with Glen Slater, the lyricist of that show, on Broadway Bullet that is well worth listening to]. The second weekend brings A Man for All Seasons\u201d at Actors Co-op (FB). The third weekend brings The Hunchback of Notre Dame at 5 Star Theatricals (FB) (nee Cabrillo Music Theatre (FB)), as well as our annual visit to the Original Renaissance Faire. The last weekend of April sees us travelling for a show, as we drive up to San Jose to see friends as well as Adrift in Macao at The Tabard Theatre Company (FB). Currently, we\u2019re booking all the way out in mid to late 2018! We may also be adding an Ahmanson Theatre (FB) subscription, given their recent announcements regarding the next season.\nCategoriesreviews, theatreTagspasadena-playhouse, reviews-2018, theatre-2018\nThoughts on a Theatre Season (Pasadena Playhouse) \uf3ad Other Theatre News\nSome weeks the news chum doesn\u2019t theme, and you get stew at the end of the week.

That was the question that Kulap Saipradit asked in his novel \u201cBehind the Painting\u201c, a story that is required reading in Thailand (from what I have seen on the Internet). It was subsequently adapted into two Thai movies (1985 and 2001), and supposedly into a musical in Thailand (Khang Lang Parp). Richard Maltby. Jr. (Book and Lyrics) and David Shire (Music) have adapted this classic Thai story into a new musical, Waterfall, at the Pasadena Playhouse (FB) (which we saw in a preview performance on Sunday night (May 31, 2015)). According to the program, the ultimate plans are for this musical to continue on to Broadway; it was in New York in early 2014 for a lab development reading. PS: The Jewish Journal has a great article on how this show came to America.\nThe original Thai story dealt with two Thai aristocrats in 1930s Japan and Thailand, who wrestle with their love for each other, and their duty to their family. The two protagonists are both involved in arranged relationships which they entered into out of duty to family and social class. Maltby and Shire\u2019s adaptation keeps the basic elements of the story, but tweaks the story for American audiences to have a young Thai student fall in love with the young American wife of a senior Thai diplomat. This occurs at the time when Siam was transitioning into Thailand, and becoming a democracy (which, alas, didn\u2019t last). The senior Thai diplomat, who had been about to retire, was enticed to stay by an assignment as an envoy to America (where he married his wife). He was then presented with an opportunity he couldn\u2019t pass up: negotiating an alliance between Siam/Thailand and Japan, in the years just before World War II.\nIn Maltby\u2019s adaptation (I can\u2019t speak to the original), there are two distinct threads: a political threat and a romantic threat; these two threads are tightly interwoven. The political thread I just mentioned; it primarily concerns Noppon, a young Thai student who starts out idolizing America; the older Siamese diplomatic envoy, Cho Khun Atikarn; and his younger wife, Katherine Briggs Atikarn. Noppon, upon graduation from Thai educational system, has been awarded a scholarship to study politics at a prestigious school in Japan. At the same time, Atikarn has been directed by the Siamese government to negotiate the first ever alliance treaty with Japan. Atikarn arrives in Japan, and Noppon is requested (because he speaks English) to escort Katherine during her visit to Japan. More on that later. The political negotiations start to get testy as Foreign Minister Takamota becomes increasingly anti-American, and Japan starts to exhibit its expansionist side. This creates difficulty in the negotiations; the negotiation break off completely when Atikarn is recalled to Siam to help stabilize the government.\nParallel to this story is the story of Noppon and Katherine. This is the big romantic story that is at the heart of the musical (and, indeed, the Thai variations of it have been at the heart of all productions based on the novel). Noppon, upon seeing Katherine, starts to fall in love. Katherine enjoys the attentions of a younger man, and continues to flirt with him as Atikarn\u2019s work brings them to Kyoto. Noppon and Katherine see the sights in the city: the Tanabata Festival, the Taiko Display. Eventually, they take a tour to Mt. Mitake. There, in front of the waterfall, they dance (mmmm, and a little bit more).\nThis is where Act I ends. In Act II, we see Katherine and Atikarn leave abruptly for Siam, with Noppon left behind to be groomed for the diplomatic corps. He is head over heals with infatuation, and the sudden departure fractures him and forces him into his work. Katherine, on the other hand, is pragmatic. Flings are flings, and her duty is to her husband, the Ambassador. Noppon\u2019s infatuation leads him to send a set of paints to Katherine, as she had mentioned she had painted when she was young. A few years later, Noppon is posted back to Thailand \u2014 and we get the reunion. It it what you might predict, or something else? I\u2019ll leave the story there so as not to completely spoil it.\nThis brings us to where we started: a painting. Going back to the opening of the musical, we see this painting being hung in a new house by Noppon. His wife comes by and says she doesn\u2019t see what Noppon sees in the painting, which is a watercolor of the waterfall at Mr. Mitaki. In particular, she doesn\u2019t understand why the title refers to dancers, when there are none in the picture. This is where Noppon smiles, indicates that he sees the dancers, and starts to relate to the audience the story above.\nWhen dealing with a new musical \u2014 and the first big staging of a new musical \u2014 a number of areas require analysis: the book, the libretto, the performances, and the technical aspects of the presentation. I\u2019ve described the story above; here are my thoughts on the book:\nFirst and foremost, my mind kept contrasting this to The King and I. There are some parallels. The King and I takes place in the 1860s in Siam \u2014 less than 100 years before this story. In The King and I, we see some of the first stirrings of modern thinking struggling against Thai tradition. It is in these areas that Anna clashes with the King, but the King holds fast \u2014 it is his son that starts to bring in change. In Waterfall, we have a similar theme being echoed: Noppon (representing Siam\u2019s youth) wants to be all things American. This clashes with Japan, which in the ramp up to WWII was rejecting the modernities of America in favor of the preservation of Japanese culture. When Katherine enters the picture, we begin to see the clash of American attitudes with Thai culture and traditions. We see this first in the reactions of Katherine\u2019s servant, Nuan, to American outspokeness \u2014 and we see how Katherine wants to be more Thai. This, in turn, moves Noppon to place greater value in Thai culture\u2026 which then clashes with the new Thailand values, which wants to discard Thai culture in favor of the modern world and its Western approaches. This, then, is the culmination of the effort begun with the King\u2019s son in The King and I.\nI found the political side of the story fascinating (and I find myself seeing echoes of Pacific Overtures). I have never given much thought to the other countries in East Asia during WWII: were they on the side of Allies, or allied with the Axis? Here we see how Japan was growing ready for WWII, and had significant territorial ambitions. We also see how Thailand tried to straddle the middle (at least according to Noppon); it is unclear how what was presented near the epilogue jives with the truth.\nThis brings us to the romantic story. My wife found it mostly predictable. I didn\u2019t. I thought it was going to go a particular direction (which the first act makes you want to happen), but then you see how a change in the characters changes that direction, and brings the romantic story to a different, but equally touching conclusions. However, I\u2019m unsure how well this romantic story will play on the Broadway stage. It is certainly more interesting than Light in the Piazza, but given the current nature of Broadway I\u2019m not sure that a romantic story would have a long run. This could be one of a string of Pasadena Playhouse musicals that make it to Broadway, only to have their runs fizzle out. The track record speaks for itself: Baby Its You, Sister Act, A Night with Janis Joplin. I still think they should have brought the excellent Mask to Broadway.\nBut overall, I liked the book. It wasn\u2019t the immediate grab of a Hairspray or The Book of Mormon, but it wasn\u2019t a failure either.\nNext, let\u2019s look at the liberetto \u2014 the music and lyrics. I tend to like Maltby / Shire musicals \u2014 Baby has a wonderful score, and despite it\u2019s problems there are some great songs in Big. Maltby and Shire also know how to write great story and romantic songs \u2014 just look at the revue Closer than Ever. The score for Waterfall is one of the most integrated scores I\u2019ve seen from the team. There are a number of songs I liked as I heard them (alas, it is hard to remember them afterwards \u2014 I\u2019d need a cast album). They also had songs that were primarily sung in other languages, both Japanese and Thai. I cannot speak to how well they preserved or captured traditional Thai or Japanese musical stylings. But the songs were beautiful, and well executed by the performers. One thing I did notice was that there were just a few musical motifs; they kept being repurposed for similar songs with similar themes (this is best illustrated by the series of \u201cI Am\u201d songs: \u201cI Am Not Thai\u201d, \u201cI Will Be Thai\u201d; or the \u201cI Like\u201d songs: \u201cI Like Americans\u201d, \u201cI Like the Japanese\u201d, \u201cI Hate the Siamese\u201d).\nThis brings us to the performances. Before I go into the individual performances, I must comment on what this show says about the lack of diversity in the American theatre, and the lack of suitable dramatic vehicles for Asian actors. In reading the credits, the same shows tended to be listed \u2014 shows that are (almost stereotypically) Asian: The King and I, Flower Drum Song, Miss Saigon, Pacific Overtures. I think there need to be more shows that provide the opportunity for Asian actors. What East-West Players does is just a start. Of course, things are not helped by the set of Equity actors, which tend to be overwhelmingly of a common hue. This leads to the next casting complaint: Casting directors that seem to think that all Asians look alike. For those who know, there are distinct differences between the various Asian ethnicities, and the Asian casting here was a mix of Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, and probably some I couldn\u2019t distinguish. I find this demonstrates a commentary on the acting pool: it indicates there are insufficient actors of a particular group to properly staff the show. This is something the theatre community needs to combat: we need to encourage more diversity in the acting pool (and diverse stories to employ them). [This is where 99 seat theatre demonstrates its importance: it is that stepping stone for non-traditional actors to grow in their craft; the large paying productions cannot employ sufficient ethnic actors and tend to create a high bar to entry.]\nIn the lead positions were Bie Sukrit (FB) as Noppon and Emily Padgett (FB) as Katherine. This was Sukrit\u2019s first appearance on an American stage \u2014 he is evidently a pop star in Thailand \u2014 and he came across as the equal to the other Equity actors sharing the stage. I initially found his accent required close listening, but as I got used to it there was no problem. He did, however, need greater amplification to equal Padgett and to overpower the orchestra (hopefully, this will be fixed by opening night). As for Padgett \u2014 what a lovely voice, almost operatic. It was well suited for the music, and blended well with Sukrit\u2019s lighter voice. Both did a great job of bringing the characters to life in a way that you believed they were who they were, and that they were reflecting the emotions that the story required. I\u2019d try to name particular songs that they excelled at, but they were all great.\nIn major supporting positions were Thom Sesma (FB) (Chao Khun Atikarn), J. Elaine Marcos (FB) (Nuan), and as Noppon\u2019s college friends, Jordan De Leon (FB) (Santi, Ensemble), Colin Miyamoto (FB) (Surin), and Lisa Helmi Johanson (FB) (Kumiko, Ensemble). Again, all were excellent. I was particularly taken with the presence that Sesma had as Atikarn \u2014 he gave off a wonderful diplomatic flair, and had a lovely singing voice. Marcos, as Nuan, captured the culture clash well and was particularly enjoyable in the number \u201cI Will Be Thai\u201d. Lastly, of Noppon\u2019s college friends, I particularly enjoyed Johanson\u2019s Kumiko, who captured well both the joy and angst of being an Asian who was an American in the period before WWII. This came across extremely well in the song \u201cAmerica Will Break Your Hear\u201d, as well as \u201cMusic to my Ears\u201d.\nNotable smaller supporting characters were Steven Eng (FB) (Foreign Minister Takamoto) and Marcus Choi (FB) (Thai Minister, Japanese Attach\u00e9, Ensemble), both who were great in their songs \u201cI Like Americans\u201d and \u201cI Hate the Siamese\u201d (respectively). Eng was particularly menacing in his role; this is a good thing given the nature of the role. Rounding out the cast were: Eymard Cabling (FB) (Siamese Ambassador, Ensemble), Rona Figueroa (FB) (Yamaguchi Sister, Ensemble), Kimberly Immanuel (FB) (Pree, Yamaguchi Sister, Ensemble), Kenway Hon Wai K. Kua (FB) (Taiko Drummer, Ensemble), Leon Le (FB) (Taiko Drummer, Ensemble), Koh Mochizuki (FB) (Taiko Drummer, Ensemble), Celia Mei Rubin (FB) (Ensemble), Darryl Semira (FB) (Ensemble, Dance Captain), Riza Takahashi (FB) (Yamaguchi Sister, Ensemble), Kay Trinidad (FB) (Ensemble), and Minami Yusui (FB) (Ensemble). I\u2019ll note that Figueroa, Immanuel, and Takahashi sounded lovely together in \u201cMusic to my Ears\u201d.\nAs previously noted, the show featured lyrics by Richard Maltby. Jr. and music by David Shire. Music supervision and additional arrangements were by John McDaniel (FB), with orchestrations by Jonathan Tunick (FB). Mark Hartman (FB) was the associate conductor. McDaniel and Hartman conducted the 13 piece orchestra consisting of Christian Regul (FB) [Keyboard 2], David Witham (FB) [Keyboard Swing], Greg Huckins (FB) [Reed 1], Sean Franz (FB) [Reed 2], Bill Wood (FB) [Bassoon], Nathan Campbell [French Horn], Marissa Benedict (FB) [Trumpet], Mark Converse (FB) [Percussion], Trey Henry [Bass], Carrie Holtzman-Little and Jody Rubin [Viola], and Rebecca Merblum (FB) and Stan Sharp [Cello]. The orchestra produced a lovely sound, which was notable for its inclusion of traditional Thai and Japanese instruments, such as the Ranat Ek, a curved, xylophone-like instrument.\nMovement was choreographed by Dan Knechtges (FB), assisted by Jessica Hartman (Associate Choreographer). Dance music arrangements were by Greg Jarrett. The movement and dance was visually delightful, especially the numbers that incorporated traditional Thai and Japanese dance movements and motifs. There were also a number of moments of traditional ballroom and modern swing dancing (reflecting 1930s style) that were great. I will note that the kneepads were visible in a number of dance numbers; that could be visually distracting for some. Darryl Semira (FB) was the Dance Captain.\nWaterfall was directed by Tak Viravan (FB); Dan Knechtges (FB) was the co-director, and Kenneth Ferrone (FB) was the Associate Director. I\u2019ll note that Viravan, in conjunction with the producer, Jack M. Dalgleish, were the primary drivers on bringing the show to America, and the Dalgleish was the one who reached out to Maltby/Shire to adapt the show for an American audience. I\u2019ve noted before how I have difficulty seeing where the director stops and the actor begins, and so I tend to credit the actor. I\u2019ll credit the director here for the vision that was realized, and for capturing the little things from that culture. This was particularly apparent in the interactions with Nuan, who was very deferential and submission, which made her hesitancy later on speaking up much stronger. Management was provided by the following team: Andrew Neal (FB) [Production Stage Manager], Lucy Kennedy (FB) [Assistant Stage Manager], Heather \u201cRed\u201d Verhoef [Production Manager/Assistant Stage Manager], Joe Witt [General Manager], Kristen Hammack (FB) [Producing Associate / Company Manager].\nLastly, let\u2019s consider the technical side. The Pasadena Playhouse is blessed with a large flyspace, large wings on both sides, and a deep stage. Sasavat (Ja) Busayabandh, the scenic designer made good use of this space for scenic elements that flew down (Christine Peters was the Associate Scenic Designer). However, the main scenic elements were walls with rough jagged edges that slid left and right, seemingly like textured stone walls. Against these walls, projections designed by Caite Havner Kemp [Projection Designer] were used to establish locale. I recently listened to a Producer\u2019s Perspective podcast with director Scott Schwartz where he opined that he didn\u2019t like heavy use of projections; he felt they were a cost-saving crutch and preferred real theatrical designs. Yet these projections worked against the walls; they were particularly noteworthy during the painting scene of the Waterfall where you could see how the watercolors interacted to form the picture. Most of the other scenic elements were a bit simpler; I\u2019ll note that the set piece for the waterfall was notable in its use of real running water on stage that was splashed around (something you rarely see). Overall, the scenic design worked well for the Playhouse space. It also interacted well with Ken Billington\u2018s lighting design. This design was noteworthy for its used of the color palette, in particular the washes used against the rear cyclorama. The costumes (designed by Wade Laboissonniere) and hair, wigs and makeup (designed by J. Jared Janas) seemed appropriately period; I don\u2019t have the expertise to speak to whether the traditional Japanese and Thai costumes were correct (they appeared correct to my Western eye, but what do I know?). I particularly enjoyed the dresses worn by Katherine (Emily Padgett (FB)) and Kumiko (Lisa Helmi Johanson (FB)), which were both beautiful, flattering to the actors, and fit in the late 30s time period. Lastly, the sound design by Dan Moses Schreier was mostly clear; there were a few microphone static problems that I presume will be corrected by the official opening (this was a particular problem in the waterfall scene). As noted before, Bie needed some additional amplification. Additional design and related credits: Brad Enlow [Technical Director], Stewart/Whitley (FB) [Casting].\nAccording to the main credit page, Waterfall was produced by the Pasadena Playhouse (FB) under the artistic direction of Sheldon Epps, in association with the 5th Avenue Theatre (FB) in Seattle (which will present Waterfall in the fall of 2015). Articles on the show indicate that eventual producers will be the director (Tak Viravan)\u2019s producing business, Scenario Company, in conjunction with Jack M. Dalgleish.\nWaterfall continues at the Pasadena Playhouse (FB), formally opening on June 7, 2015 and running until June 28, 2015. If you\u2019re a fan of new musicals, or of Maltby/Shire musicals, or of Asian culture, this is especially well worth seeing. Tickets are available online through the Pasadena Playhouse website. Discount tickets may be available through special Pasadena Playhouse programs, Goldstar, LA Stage Tix, and other common outlets.\nOne last note regarding Waterfall \u2014 in particular, about the Waterfall audience. Sheldon Epps, the Artistic Director of the Playhouse, is well known for pushing diversity on stage. When we were subscribing at the Playhouse, this meant that there were a fair number of African-American themed plays. I always bemoaned the fact that the complexion of the audience would change for those plays; there was a distinct color shift I found disturbing. My disturbance wasn\u2019t due to the black audiences \u2014 I want diverse and younger audiences discovering and coming to theatre. My disturbance was more the absence of the typical audience of non-color \ud83d\ude42 \u2014 why were they avoiding the play (I\u2019m similarly disturbed about the fact that the audiences of color don\u2019t come to traditional plays). The same shift was notable in the Waterfall audience \u2014 it skewed much more Asian than the typical Playhouse audience. As a result, I must make the comment I always make: Theatre is like music \u2014 it is either good or bad. It is not \u201cAsian\u201d, it is not \u201cBlack\u201d, it is not \u201cWhite\u201d. It reflects and comments on situations that are set in a wide variety of communities. Audiences must make an effort to go to a wide variety of theatre that reflects diverse experience, and not only the shows that reflect their particular ethnic experience. This permits theatre to do its job, moving people to learn and think about how people react in various situations. End soapbox.\nUpcoming Shows: June will be exhausting with the bounty that the Hollywood Fringe Festival (FB) brings (ticketing is now open). June starts with a matinee of the movie Grease at The Colony Theatre (FB), followed by Clybourne Park (HFF) at the Lounge Theatre (FB) Camenot at the Complex Theatres (FB) (Clybourne Park was cancelled) on Saturday, and a trip out to see the Lancaster Jethawks on Sunday. The second weekend of June brings Max and Elsa. No Music. No Children. (HFF) at Theatre Asylum (FB) and Wombat Man (HFF) at Underground Theatre (FB) on Saturday, and Marry Me a Little (HFF) by Good People Theatre (FB) at the Lillian Theatre (FB) on Sunday. The craziness continues into the third weekend of June, with the Nigerian Spam Scam Scam (HFF) at Theatre Asylum (FB) and Merely Players (HFF) at the Lounge Theatre (FB) on Saturday, and Uncle Impossible\u2019s Funtime Variety & Ice Cream Social, (HFF) at the Complex Theatres (FB) on Sunday (and possibly \u201cMatilda\u201d at the Ahmanson Theatre (FB) in the afternoon, depending on Hottix availability, although July 4th weekend is more likely). The Fringe craziness ends with Medium Size Me, (HFF) at the Complex Theatres (FB) on Thursday 6/25 and Might As Well Live: Stories By Dorothy Parker (HFF) at the Complex Theatres (FB) on Saturday. June ends with our annual drum corps show in Riverside on Sunday. July begins with \u201cMurder for Two\u201d at the Geffen Playhouse (FB) on July 3rd, and possibly Matilda. July 11th brings \u201cJesus Christ Superstar\u201d at REP East (FB). The following weekend brings \u201cGreen Grow The Lilacs\u201d at Theatricum Botanicum (FB) [and may also bring The History Boys at the Stella Adler Lab Theatre (FB) (I\u2019m considering it)]. July 25th brings \u201cLombardi\u201d at the Lonny Chapman Group Rep (FB), with the annual Operaworks show the next day. August starts with \u201cAs You Like It\u201d at Theatricum Botanicum (FB), and is followed by the summer Mus-ique show, and \u201cThe Fabulous Lipitones\u201d at The Colony Theatre (FB). After that we\u2019ll need a vacation! As always, I\u2019m keeping my eyes open for interesting productions mentioned on sites such as Bitter-Lemons, and Musicals in LA, as well as productions I see on Goldstar, LA Stage Tix, Plays411.\nThoughts on a Theatre Season: Pasadena Playhouse / Theatricum Botanicum\nPosted on Saturday, April 4, 2015 Monday, August 3, 2015 Authorcahwyguy\nTime for another post looking at theatre season announcements. Today\u2019s post is triggered by the recent announcements of the Pasadena Playhouse (FB) season and the Theatricum Botanicum Seasons.\nWe used to be long-time subscribers at the Pasadena Playhouse (FB). We weren\u2019t treated well during the bankruptcy itself, and choose to move our mid-side theatre subscription to The Colony Theatre (FB) in Burbank. We\u2019ve enjoyed the productions at the Colony, although they are not that adventurous or likely to move on to bigger and better things (you want adventurous productions that may move on, explore LA\u2019s 99 Seat Theatre scene \u2014 which is threatened by AEA \u2014 learn more at http://ilove99.org). As for the Pasadena Playhouse, we haven\u2019t much liked Sheldon\u2019s programming \u2014 and especially the TBA slot. Still, we\u2019re planning on one show this season there. So let\u2019s see what they are proposing:\nReal Women Have Curves. Written by Josefina L\u00f3pez. Directed by Seema Sueko. September 8 \u2013 October 4, 2015. This is taking a movie and moving it onstage. This can work (and draw audiences), but isn\u2019t that particularly exciting to me\u2026 especially as a straightforward drama.\nBreaking Through. Book by Kirsten Guenther. Music and Lyrics by Cliff Downs and Katie Kahanovitz. Directed by Sheldon Epps. October 27 \u2013 November 22, 2015. A new musical from a team that hasn\u2019t done musicals before. That may or may not be bad \u2014 sometimes it works, sometimes it fails miserably. The story is about a young, talented singer/songwriter, as she tries to navigate the treacherous shark-\u00ad\u2010filled waters of the music business with a a compelling journey to find her way back to her authentic self and in the process rediscovers the music that truly makes her alive. Isn\u2019t that Beautiful or any of a myriad of other shows? Not a compelling story.\nPeter Pan and Tinkerbell: A Pirate Christmas. By Kris Lythgoe. Directed by Bonnie Lythgoe. Musical Direction by Michael Orland. Choreography by Spencer Liff. December 9, 2015\u2013 January 3, 2016. British Christmas Panto. I\u2019m sorry, but I\u2019m generally not into Christmas-specific shows.\nFly. By Trey Ellis and Ricardo Khan. Directed by Ricardo Khan. Produced in Association with Crossroads Theatre Company. January 26 \u2013 February 21, 2016. Fly tells the story of the first African-\u00ad\u2010 American Army Air Corp fighters known as the Tuskegee Airmen who flew over the skies of Europe and North Africa during World War II. Sigh. This is one of Sheldon\u2019s shows designed to bring in an audience of color. I used to see these every year, and was disappointed that the audience didn\u2019t remain around for other shows (or that the white audience disappeared for these shows). Potentially interesting, but not a must-see. All depends on what else is out around then.\nCasa Valentina. By Harvey Fierstein. Directed by David Lee. March 15 \u2013 April 10, 2016. Per the description: this moving and insightful play is nestled in the Catskills in 1962 -\u00ad\u2010 land of dirty dancing and borscht belt comedy. But an inconspicuous bungalow colony is more than a place to escape the sweltering summer heat. For a group of heterosexual men it is a place to escape something else entirely: being men. Interesting for the director and the playwright. Not sure that it draws me in fully, but this might be good.\nARTISTIC DIRECTOR\u2019S CHOICE. To Be Announced. May 31 \u2013 June 26, 2015. Otherwise known as the Sheldon CYA slot. I\u2019m not going to commit myself if he can\u2019t.\nNot a season that excites me.\nWe\u2019re not subscribers here, but we tend to see a show here and there, if it is interesting. As Theatricum Botanicum (FB) wrote:\nThe upcoming \u2018Americana\u2019 season includes William Shakespeare\u2019s As You Like It, re-set in the Reconstruction-era South with live music of the period; To Kill A Mockingbird, Christopher Sergel\u2019s stage adaptation of Harper Lee\u2019s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel; August: Osage County, Tracy Letts\u2019 biting portrait of the dysfunctional American family at its finest \u2014 and absolute worst; and Green Grow the Lilacs, the play by Lynn Riggs that inspired Rodgers and Hammerstein\u2019s Oklahoma. Finally, what could be more American than an outing to experience Theatricum\u2019s signature production of A Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream, back for the ninth year in a row by popular demand? Audiences flock to this annual family favorite, a beguiling romantic comedy set in Theatricum\u2019s own Topanga forest.\nThese all run in repertory through the summer. My thoughts:\nAs You Like It. Seen a number of adaptations of this, including a disasterous one at the Pasadena Playhouse (the only show I\u2019ve walked out on). The era and setting of this sound interesting.\nTo Kill a Mockingbird. Great play, but I just saw it within the last couple of years at Repertory East. Given how crowded the summer is, I\u2019m not sure it is worth squeezing in.\nAugust: Osage County. A classic play, worth seeing if I can squeeze it in.\nGreen Grow the Lilacs. This is one I\u2019d really like to see \u2014 the basis for Oklahoma. I\u2019ve always heard about it.\nA Midsummers Night Dream. This one will be around again, so I\u2019ll skip this time.\nThey only have seasons subscriptions up, so I\u2019ll either have to remember to put HOLD dates or watch Goldstar.\nCategoriestheatreTagspasadena-playhouse, theatre-planning, theatricum-botanicum\nThe Man Behind the Face\nPosted on Monday, June 23, 2014 Tuesday, June 24, 2014 Authorcahwyguy\nRecently, Carla Laemmle died. She was one of the last living links to the first era of motion pictures \u2014 the silent movie era. Most of today\u2019s youth can hardly imagine the impact of these short, black and white, soundless (but for a piano accompaniment) images on the screen, but in their day\u2026 they defined and created stars. There were romantic and dramatic stars, but some of the best known were the comedians: Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Mabel Norman, Roscoe Arbuckle, and Buster Keaton. Some big stage shows have been made for some \u2014 there have been at least two musical version\u2019s of Chaplin\u2019s life story, and Norman\u2019s romance with Mack Sennet was the basis for Mack and Mabel. Others have languished in obscurity. Recently, Sacred Fools Theatre had a well-received production of a play with musical accompaniment about the life of Buster Keaton. This play was written by Vanessa Claire Stewart (FB), as a birthday present for her husband, French Stewart (FB), of 3rd Rock and Mom fame, who has the lead role as Buster Keaton (his idol). For the 2013-2014 season, the Pasadena Playhouse announced a remounting of this show, and it was the only show in their season I found interesting. So guess where I was last night? Yup, we were back at our old haunt, the Pasadena Playhouse, seeing Buster Keaton on screen and stage.\nSo who is Buster Keaton. Many may remember him from his last role: He played Erroneous in the screen version of \u201cA Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum\u201c. But he is best known for his long string of silent movies with well-timed gags starting in 1917, and he made (on average) at least one movie a year until 1966. But all weren\u2019t successes. He had two unsuccessful marriages and a significant drinking problem that derailed his career in the mid-1930s, and his career limped along until he was rediscovered in the 1950s for the genius that he was. His bio at IMDB makes interesting reading.\n\u201cStoneface\u201d attempts to tell much of Keaton\u2019s life story. It begins with Keaton at his first drug rehab in 1933 when he is with his second wife, Mae. His story is then told in flashbacks: his marriage to Natalie Talmadge (sister of Norma Talmadge), his friendship and professional relationship with Roscoe \u201cFatty\u201d Arbuckle, his relationship with Joseph Schenck (his producer) and his long line of successful films, the disastrous financial failure of \u201cThe General\u201c, the sale of his contract to MGM and his poor relationship with Louis B. Mayer. It also explores his battle with alcoholism, his failure at relationships with his first wife (Natalie) and the loss of his children, and the scandal related to his friend, Roscoe Arbuckle. It shows the period where he had lost his timing and made horrible shorts just to survive. But it also shows his sobering up, his successful relationship with his third (and final) wife, his comeback with Chaplin in 1951\u2019s \u201cLimelight\u201d, and his receiving a special Oscar for his life\u2019s work in comedy. In general, the story worked \u2014 although I wish they had mentioned that his final speech actually was at the Oscars, and mentioned his final role in Forum.\nThe way the production was done was very interesting. There were many scenes that were, essentially, silent movies on stage. There was the occasional projected subtitle, but all the action was silent (often with Keaton\u2019s style of comedy) with piano accompaniment. These scenes were excellent, and Stewart seemed to have quite a bit of fun with them, capturing Keaton\u2019s style quite well. Other scenes were more expositional \u2014 conventional scenes in which the story played out. These scenes were a bit more problematic \u2014 not because of the writing, but because Stewart seemed a bit off with the occasional line hesitation and restart that impacted his timing. His supporting players, however, were excellent.\nThis production started at the Sacred Fools Theatre, an under 99-seat venue in Hollywood. At the Playhouse, it was in a 686 seat auditorium. There are those who claim that the production lost something in the transfer to the larger venue. Having not seen it in the smaller venue, I can\u2019t speak to that assessment. I can see, however, how the magic and the performance would have had more oomph in a more intimate venue. I found the production worked at the Playhouse for me; however I think a production like this would be lost at the Ahmanson or Pantages. If it wasn\u2019t for the difficulty in working the scenery, the Colony would be a great venue.\nAs noted above, French Stewart (FB) had the lead position as Buster Keaton. He captured Keaton\u2019s persona and mannerisms quite well, especially in the silent and physical comedy scenes, but had the occasional line problem in the expositional scenes. Looking at his Facebook, this could be the four-show weekends getting to him; this was near the end of the run. But this does seem to be a character that he really enjoys playing and inhabiting, and it is worth seeing for his performance.\nThe remaining cast members are strong, but there are some worthy of particular note. Tegan Ashton Cohan (FB), as Natalie Talmadge (as well as part of the ensemble), has an extended sequence with Stewart where she attempts to get him sitting in a chair. The physical comedy in this sequence is spectacular. There is a similar sequence with Daisy Eagan (FB) as Mae Scriven, his second wife. There is also some good physical comedy with Joe Fria (FB) as the young Buster Keaton; Scott Leggett (FB) is great as Roscoe Arbuckle in the opening sequence of Act II. The rest of the actors handle their roles well, and are remarkable in their interactions with the special effects \u2014 in particular, the effect of walking behind a screen and suddenly being in the silent movie. Rounding out the cast were Jake Broder (FB) (Joseph Schenck), Rena Strober (FB) (Norma Talmadge / Eleanor Keaton), Pat Towne (FB) (Louis B. Mayer), Conor Duffy (FB) (Edward Sedgwick / George Jessel), and Guy Picot (FB) (Charlie Chaplin).\nThe production was directed by Jaime Robledo (FB), who was very clever at providing the production a silent-movie feel, including the aforementioned scenes where the actors go behind a screen and are suddenly in the projected image, or longer scenes that are done entirely as silent movies. These were extremely clever and enjoyable. I\u2019ll note the entire production was helped by the great rinky-tinky piano accompaniment of Ryan Johnson (FB).\nThis is one show where the technical makes the show. The scenic design of Joel Daavid (FB) was spectacular and truly brought the silent film era of the 1920s to life. This resurrection of the period was aided and abeted by the costumes of Jessica Olson (FB) and the wigs of Jessica Mills (FB). As for the lighting, Jeremy Pivnick (FB) did some things I\u2019ve never seen before, including a moving light on a track in the upper fly space that itself had a moving mirror. The sound by the wonderful Cricket S. Myers (FB) was mostly wonderful \u2014 in particular the silent movie projector sound during the projections. However, the music behind Keaton and Arbuckle in the bar scenes was just loud enough to be distracting \u2014 in fact, I thought it might be coming from the bar outside. As noted before, projections make this show, and much of the credit goes to Ben Rock (FB) and Anthony Backman (FB) and technical director Brad Enlow. Mike Mahaffey (FB) was the fight director. Susie Walsh was the production stage manager; Hethyr \u201cRed\u201d Verhoef was the stage manager, and Kristen Hammack/FB was the company manager.\n\u201cStoneface: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Buster Keaton\u201d continues at the Pasadena Playhouse (FB) through June 29. Tickets are available through the Playhouse box office, and discount tickets are available through Goldstar.\nThe Pasadena Playhouse is promoting their 2014-2015 season, but I\u2019m not biting. The season consists of a variation of \u201cKiss Me Kate\u201d transporting to the mileau of black vaudeville of the early 20th century (umm, no); \u201cStop Kiss\u201d by Diana Son, a holiday Panto of Sleeping Beauty, \u201cTwo for the Seesaw\u201d by William Gibson, \u201cPygmalion\u201d by George Bernard Shaw, and Sheldon\u2019s favorite show, \u201cTBD\u201d, which he does every season. Of these, the only one interesting me is \u201cTwo for the Seesaw\u201c, and that\u2019s primarily because it is the closest I\u2019ll ever come to seeing the musical \u201cSeesaw\u201c, which was based on that play.\nUpcoming Theatre and Concerts: We finish off June with \u201cI\u2019m Not Just a Comic Genius\u201d at Secret Rose (FB) on June 27. July will be busy: \u201cGhost\u201d at the Pantages (FB) on 7/5, \u201cReturn to the Forbidden Planet\u201d at REP East (FB) the weekend of 7/12, \u201cOnce\u201d at the Pantages (FB) on 7/19, \u201cBye Bye Birdie\u201d at Cabrillo Music Theatre (FB) on 7/26, and \u201cFamily Planning\u201d at The Colony Theatre (FB) on 8/2. August then remains quiet as we work around vacations and such (but I\u2019m eyeing a number of productions in Escondido, including \u201cTwo Gentlemen of Verona\u201d at the Old Globe, and \u201cPageant\u201d at the Cygnet in Old Town. What they have at the Welk (\u201cOklahoma\u201c), Patio Theatre (\u201cFiddler on the Roof\u201c), and Moonlight Stage (\u201cMy Fair Lady\u201c) are all retreads. Things start to get busy again in September and October, with \u201cThe Great Gatsby\u201d at REP, \u201cWhat I Learned in Paris\u201d at the Colony, and \u201cPippin\u201d at the Pantages. More on that later. As always, I\u2019m keeping my eyes open for interesting productions mentioned on sites such as Bitter-Lemons, and Musicals in LA, as well as productions I see on Goldstar, LA Stage Tix, Plays411.\nMothers Day News Chum Stew\nPosted on Sunday, May 11, 2014 Authorcahwyguy\nYou know you want to take your mother to dinner. But what will you talk about? Here\u2019s a bunch of news chum stew items, accumulated over the last two weeks (I\u2019ve been busy, what can I say) that might just do:\nSize Matters. Here\u2019s a great discussion topic for your mom\u2026 or for \u201cWait Wait, Don\u2019t Tell Me\u201d. A recent study has shown that, the larger your penis, the greater the likelihood that your wife will cheat on you. In particular, according to this study, every one inch longer penis increased the likelihood of women being involved in extra-marital partnership by almost one-and-half times. I think I\u2019ll leave the subject at that and go on to the next subject\u2026\nGot Gas? Here\u2019s some more useful information. Remember \u201cBeans Beans They\u2019re Good for the Heart\u201d. Well, it turns out that lots of gas is a sign of a healthy biome in your gut. This reminds me of a joke from Jason Alexander. It seems there was this long married couple whose sex life was in the dumps (see item #1). The wife went to a sex counselor, who suggested they try 69. She came home and explained it to her husband. They got in bed and in the position\u2026. and she ripped a good one. After the air had cleared, they tried it again\u2026 and she ripped another one. They were about to try it again when the husband said, \u201cyou think I\u2019m going to do this 67 more times, you\u2019re crazy\u201d.\nIt\u2019s the Place To Be. Yup, that Farm Living is the life for me. If this makes you think of Green Acres, you\u2019re not along. There are plans for a Broadway stage play adaptation of the hicksville TV show originally starring Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor. The rights to the property were acquired by director Richard L. Bare, who was one of the most prolific helmers on the original series, and by producer Phillip Goldfine through his production company Hollywood Media Bridge.\nCramming It In. Sony is working on new technology that will cram 3,700 blue-rays into a single cassette tape. Actually, that\u2019s a little misleading \u2014 we\u2019re not talking here about a C-60 or a C-90, but a specially designed cartridge. Still, the technology is intriguing: a whopping 148 GB per square inch, meaning a cassette could hold 185 TB of data. Sony uses a vacuum-forming technique called sputter deposition to create a layer of magnetic crystals by shooting argon ions at a polymer film substrate. The crystals, measuring just 7.7 nanometers on average, pack together more densely than any other previous method. The result is that three Blu-Rays\u2019 worth of data can fit on one square inch of Sony\u2019s new wonder-tape.\nA Touching Story. Here\u2019s a very touching story about a late night encounter in a supermarket, told by Mark Evanier.\nAnything But Starbucks. A touching obituary for Herman Hyman, founder of the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf chain. This chain, which roasts its beans in Ventura County, started in a small store on San Vicente Blvd in Brentwood in the 1970s. I think, in fact, that it started not far from my first condo.\nBuildings Up, Buildings Down. Two interesting buildings in the news. First, the plans have been announced for the former furniture store space across from the Pasadena Playhouse. Should be an interesting project; it will be interesting to see how it changes the character of that area. In Las Vegas news, approval has been given to finally take down the Harmon. If you aren\u2019t familiar with the Harmon, it is the oval blue-glass coated skyscraper next to the Aria and Vdara, across from Planet Hollywood and the Cosmopolitan. It was built wrong and is unstable, but they can\u2019t implode it because it is too close to other stuff. They have to take it down piece by piece. Now if only they could do something with the Fountainbleau, which is an even bigger eyesore on the N end of the strip (where the Thunderbird once was).\nCategoriesnews-chum, obituariesTagsbattle-of-the-sexes, health, las vegas, pasadena-playhouse, technology",

The beta distribution tool allows developers to import early versions of their iOS or Android mobile apps to users, in order to test for bugs and receive feedback.\nTwitter purchased Crashlytics back in January 2013 for more than $100 million, and have only just released information about the new developer tool. This comes less than a week after Apple acquired another app developer tool named TestFlight, thus leaving a gap in the market for an Android support program. Of course that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that developers will all turn to Crashlytics, with other companies offering Android beta testing tools including HockeyApp and Google.

Epidemiological studies suggest that Boomers\u2019 health status is worse than preceding cohorts. Given trends in obesity and other indicators, their future health status could be much worse. Moreover, Boomers, not yet eligible for Medicare, are the one group who could gain the most from health care reform: for example, by preventing insurance exclusion for pre-existing conditions. One might think that Boomers would also be pleased that the Affordable Care Act has extended the life of the Medicare Trust Fund from 7 to 19 years by \u201cbending the curve\u201d of growth in future Medicare spending.\nYet Boomers, like today\u2019s seniors, do not like health care reform. According to a recent Gallup Poll there is a dramatic split in attitudes toward the Affordable Care Act. By 50%-30%, those under 30 support the law, but those 50-64 years old favor repeal by an almost equally wide margin. Seniors have even more negative attitudes. In an article in THE AMERICAN PROSPECT, editor Paul Starr (\u201cThe Republicans Senior Moment\u201d) noted that a Gallup poll last in June found 60 percent of those over 65 saying adoption of reform was a \u201cbad thing,\u201d while 57 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds and a plurality of other age groups said it was a \u201cgood thing.\u201d In this fall\u2019s campaign. The 2010 elections showed the impact of such attitudes. While the young still favored Democrats, the old swung massively to the Republicans, voting for them by a 21-point margin, 59 percent to 38 percent, with older voters turning out in much larger numbers than the young.\nWhat about aging Boomers and their prospects? In a May, 2010 a Pew Center survey showed that 57 percent of baby boomers said their financial situation had deteriorated since the recession began in 2007. Pew concluded that Boomers \u201care finishing up their working and saving years just after home values dropped, global stock markets tumbled, and the US unemployment rate doubled. It has all been a wake-up call for those who haven\u2019t been saving enough for retirement, financial planners say.\u201d\nA key element in the financial status of Boomers in years to come will be protections put in place by the Affordable Care Act, which still faces threats as some in Congress advocate repeal. Unless Boomers, and others, come to understand what is at stake here, their future could be even worse.",

        "title": "And Now He\u2019s Gone: 10 Vital Takeaways",
        "raw_content": "Human beings die, including me. Really, it\u2019s one of life\u2019s greatest wonders. So I\u2019ll strive to be at peace with it \u2013 even embrace it.\nDon\u2019t know about you, but I\u2019m not going to navigate through a tough time without making sure there\u2019s at least one takeaway \u2013 positive, that is. I mean, awful times provide unique opportunities to learn and grow.\nWhen he was placed on the facility\u2019s memory care unit last spring, it became obvious to my brother and me that \u201cPop\u201d was taking his final lap. And over the past few months we witnessed him steadily run out of steam. Yeah, it was hard \u2013 poor guy.\nThe Thursday evening before he died, I was feeding my dad some \u201cdinner\u201d \u2013 Ensure with a syringe. Not only was he not interested, he wasn\u2019t even talking. I know now that his refusal of food and inability to speak were signs that his life was coming to an end. But at the time I figured it was just part of his exhausting race.\nWell, I returned Saturday morning and I could barely absorb what I saw. Staff was getting my father out of his clothes and putting a gown on him. They then laid him down in his bed. I called my brother and suggested he come when he could, because it was obvious Pop could hit the finish-line anytime. I mean, you just know.\nMy brother and I spent Saturday and Sunday at our dad\u2019s bedside, doing all we could to somehow provide comfort. Given his unresponsive state, we had no idea if our efforts were at all effective. Heck, who knows? Maybe we were trying to comfort ourselves.\nHeart-wrenching were the many moments of holding his hand and gently rubbing his forehead as he cycled through episodes of apnea then rapid-breathing, restlessness, and crying-out. And only during those episodes would he open his eyes. Looking directly into them, we could see what we believed to be, well, terror. It still haunts me.\nAt 5:00 a.m. Monday, my brother received the call. He then called me. Yeah\u2026\nThose 10 Vital Takeaways\n1931: Pop in First Grade\nDid we agree that tough times \u2013 even the worst \u2013 provide unique opportunities to learn and grow?\nWell, that\u2019s exactly what I was faced with that early Monday morning. Was I going to let my father\u2019s death, and the two days of anguish preceding it, amount to nothing more than just another life experience?\nNo, I wanted \u2013 I needed \u2013 more.\nAs I sat by my dad\u2019s bedside, it was 100% stimulus overload. So many good and bad things ran through my mind. Still do. But it\u2019s these takeaways that continue to feel positive and lasting\u2026\nThere\u2019s an educational opportunity in all of life\u2019s experiences. For instance, in this case, I watched someone die. I also learned about hospice care, as well as the signs that dying is imminent. All will be helpful as I continue to serve others.\nI need to reach-out to others as much as I can, even when, say, certain levels of closeness feel uncomfortable. Touching my father wasn\u2019t easy for me at the end, but I grew into it. And I\u2019m glad I did.\nJust when I think my beaker\u2019s overflowing, or my reservoir\u2019s dry, I\u2019ll immediately reconsider. Fact is, my capacity is much greater than I ever really knew.\nI\u2019ll appreciate who my father really was, with objectivity and respect. Sure, he didn\u2019t meet my every expectation and need. But there were legitimate reasons, including many on my side of the fence.\nI want to continue my father\u2019s legacy, encouraging my children and grandchildren to do the same. He lived an honorable life and it deserves to be admired and remembered.\nCaring for the dying and mourning their passing is an individual experience. You can\u2019t do either in an effort to suit someone else.\nThere will be loneliness \u2013 space and time to fill. I\u2019m going to choose creative and satisfying things to plug the gaps.\nOthers are going to want to love and care about me. And I\u2019m going to do my best to accept it, even if it challenges some boundaries.\nWhat better time to explore and develop my spiritual being? I just took part in life\u2019s greatest mystery, perhaps triumph. Does freedom lie amidst the supernatural?\nYou know, it doesn\u2019t matter how equipped and prepared any of us may think we are when the death of a loved one, or another mega-traumatic event, occurs.\nIt\u2019s just hard, and finding those positive takeaways really helps \u2013 during and after.\nAh, Pop. Well done, you lived a good and right life \u2013 and I love you. Though I\u2019ll miss you, I\u2019m thinking I\u2019ll see you down the road.

        "raw_content": "Drone Attacks On the Decline, But That Won\u2019t Shine Obama\u2019s Legacy\nIs the United States running out of al-Qaeda kill targets? Has the cutting off of the serpents heads been more effective than President Obama thought possible when he sanctioned drone killing as what he was told would be the best way of beating terrorism? And has this meant nothing to the legacy Obama so keenly seeks in his final term?\nIn Washington, drone attacks remain a combined military, counter-terrorism and even an ethical issue. That is why President Obama went Thursday to the American National Defense University with a speech that fundamentally attempted to justify his global counter-terrorism policy. Given where he was speaking, he was getting to a captive and committed audience. For others, what he said does not necessarily get high-fives.\nFirstly, Obama has struggled to define what the White House calls a \u201clegal architecture\u201d for target lists. The only way to satisfy some, but not all, critics of the drone program is to take it out of the exclusive hands of the CIA. If, for example, the drone targetting schedule were in two groups \u2013 the CIA and the military \u2013 there would have to be a certain higher level of transparency in who gets lined up for a hit and what is done to limit the civilian casualties that have become a factor that makes a mockery of the claim that drones are pin point accuracy weapons. They are not, not can they be.\nSecondly, Obama signs off each strike. That means also that he has lethal powers that sit uneasily in the White House and have done so since Vietnam and carpet bombing.\nThirdly, the US is clearly rethinking its drone target policy, not because it has an ethical revelation, but because major targets have been taken out and identifying new ones harder.\nFourthly, Obama and his advisers have both publicly and privately made a case for drone hits on the basis that they are cheap, they work and they do ot cost American lives. Precision targeting is now questioned and so is the diplomatic cost of continuing with them at the present level.\nMany countries that once turned a blind eye to strikes in their homeland now object. That sets up a local political destabilizing factor and that makes it harder for America\u2019s one time vital allies to continue to publicly do American bidding or at least assist where it once thought reasonable. Internal pressures and local political intriguing mean that US support in many countries is becoming harder to pin down and this includes the once willing passing of information on radical groups and personalities \u2013 candidates for drone attacks. So the \u201cdangerous man is dead\u201d justification no longer remains an uncomplicated issue.\nWhen, for example, attacks started in 2004 in Pakistan, there was just one that year. It took another four years for the attacks to reach double figures \u2013 35 in 2008. Two years on, the strike figure was more than 100 into Pakistan territory. Since then the kill rate has reduced the so-called threat target list to just 13 this year so far.\nAs a security problem, the dispassionate would argue that it is a good problem to have. American must be a safe place. But ethically it is not and Obama knows this too well. This White House does not do any better than previous administrations on war ethics.\nFor example, when he arrived at the White House for his first term, Obama made a big deal about the wrongness of the Guantanamo detention centre on the island of Cuba where America incarcerated often dubiously come-by prisoners for indefinite detention and interrogation. He said he would close it down. He hasn\u2019t.\nA difficult aspect of Guantanamo for this lawyer President is the heavily classified, 6,000 page analysis of the CIA\u2019s interrogation program and the refusal of requests that it should at the very least be partly released as a freedom of information request. Difficult decisions for a President so vulnerable to an accusation that he\u2019s a good talker but can not get crucial issues through a po-faced Congress.\nAll this is why the National Defense University speech is so important. It will be the public definition of Obama\u2019s most controversial military authority for the rest of his term. So far, not so good for a President who still hasn\u2019t hit upon a legacy that he\u2019s want in the book of American presidential history.\nTags: Drones, Obama\nThis entry was posted on May 22, 2013 at 4:43 pm and is filed under world affairs.\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed.

        "raw_content": "York U team receives close to $1M in funding for mental-health care virtual community for students\nToronto | March 4, 2016\nA York University research team will receive more than $898,000 in funding and in-kind contributions from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and industry partners to research and develop support for the mental health needs of students through a Mindfulness Virtual Community (MVC).\n\u201cThe goal is to improve the mental health of students, in relation to experiences of stress, anxiety or depression through a supportive online community,\u201d says Professor Christo El Morr from the School of Health Policy & Management. El Morr, Professor Farah Ahmad of the School of Health Policy & Management and Professor Paul Ritvo of the School of Kinesiology & Health Science are the principal investigators for the study.\n\u201cWe aim to develop a student-centered virtual platform to meaningfully engage them in learning about available resources, self-help modules and mindfulness practice,\u201d said Ahmad. As Ritvo points out, \u201cOnline mindfulness programs have been demonstrated to have mental health benefits equal to in-person programs.\u201d\nThe researchers think more students may seek help online now as many are reluctant to pursue in-person help because of the stigma associated with mental health problems.\n\u201cI am excited to see Canadian ingenuity at work to support the health of Canadians. These projects have the potential to make high quality mental health services more available to the young Canadians who need them, and they are also making great strides for the delivery of increased home care services. We have the talent, the intelligence and the passion in Canada to make the field of eHealth one of our (many) strengths,\u201d said Minister of Health Jane Philpott.\nThe York team will conduct a randomized controlled trial, recruiting 600 students over three semesters at York University. The students will be divided into three groups. The first will use a MVC platform for two weeks; the second, an eight-week, in-person group-based mindfulness program using cognitive behavioural therapy; and the third will be placed in a wait-list control group. The researchers will compare the groups for impact on mental health, engagement and costs.\n\u201cThrough this funding, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research is helping our researchers grow their innovative research programs and contribute to scientific knowledge that will lead to improved health resources for students,\u201d said Robert Hach\u00e9, vice-president research & innovation.\nFunding for the project is part of CIHR\u2019s Youth and Adolescent Mental Health priority area of eHealth Innovation Partnership Program (eHIPP), developed by the CIHR in collaboration with the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program. Philpott and Navdeep Singh Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science, & Economic Development, announced $13.8M for 22 innovative ehealth projects today.\nYork will conduct the research with an IT partner ForaHealthyMe.com and several partner organizations.\n\u201cA Mindfulness Virtual Community would incorporate key elements of online student-to-professional group meetings, moderated peer discussion and mental health education,\u201d said El Morr.\nStudents can access an online community and resources at any time. \u201cThe ultimate goal is to help students adopt health-enhancing behaviours that reduce needs for psychiatric and clinical counselling services,\u201d said Ritvo.\nIn addition, the MVC model is expected to reduce pressures from an overburdened health-care system and cut wait times for help, said Ahmad.\nThe team hypothesizes that the MVC and group-based mindfulness groups will be similar in terms of reductions in mental distress, but the former will likely be less costly. These methods are complementary, and in combination, could be less costly than traditional specialists\u2019 services. In the next phase of the project, the team hopes to conduct a multi-campus, national trial.\nFor more information on MVC, visit the Student Mental Health website.\nsandramc@yorku.ca",

Unfortunately, the Governor\u2019s transportation plan is business as usual, at the expense of public health and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The $3.2 billion in proposed new funding replicates the Governor\u2019s plan introduced in August last year during the transportation special session. The majority of those funds will go towards repaving roads and expanding trade corridors, doing little to expand active transportation and advance transportation mode shift. Details of the proposal include:\nGovernor\u2019s Budget Includes Modest Investments in Health, Despite Revenue Surplus\nCPEHN applauds the Governor\u2019s renewed commitment to expand health care to California\u2019s undocumented children but urges greater investment in the health of communities of color broadly given the projected $3.6 billion surplus.\nOn Thursday, January 7th, Governor Jerry Brown released his proposed FY 2016-17 state budget, which includes modest increases in Medi-Cal and other safety-net programs. We are elated to see that the Governor\u2019s proposal maintains the state\u2019s prior commitment to expand full-scope Medi-Cal to undocumented children starting on May 1, 2016. Additionally, we applaud the Governor\u2019s tax revenue proposal to extend the Managed Care Tax (MCO), which is set to expire in 2016. The tax proposal, pending negotiations between the Governor and health plans, will provide $1.1 billion in state funding to help defray the cost of the In-Home Supportive Services program (IHSS) and other health care services. The 2016-17 budget also includes a small increase in SSI/SSP grants for seniors and persons with disabilities, the first increase since 2006.\nWith a large projected revenue surplus, however, the budget proposal misses important opportunities to invest in the health of California\u2019s new majority, communities of color. The budget, for example, does not seek to restore dental benefits or concretely address the lack of comprehensive health care coverage for undocumented adults. Further, the $3.2 billion in additional revenues for transportation will primarily fund repaving roads and expanding trade corridors rather than expanding funding for active transportation to positively impact climate change and public health. We also urge the elimination of the Maximum Family Grant (MFG) in the CalWORKs program, which unfairly denies financial support to babies born while their families are receiving grants.\nAdvancing Health Equity: Case Studies of Health Equity Practice in Four Award-Winning California Health Departments\nHeather Gehlert, Online Communication Specialist, Berkeley Media Studies Group\nThis is an excerpt from the new publication, Advancing Health Equity: Case Studies of Health Equity Practice in Four Award-Winning California Health Departments, that originally appeared on the Berkeley Media Studies Group's website.\nCall any local health department in the United States and, chances are, you won't have much trouble finding information on the health problems its surrounding communities face. You might learn that a county's populations of color have higher rates of asthma than white community members, or that its low-income adults are more likely to experience a heart attack. Or you might discover that the region experiences excellent health overall but still struggles with wide differences in life expectancy from one neighborhood to the next.\nThat's because health departments are increasingly focused on understanding health inequities \u2014 unjust differences in health outcomes and longevity that can't be explained by genetics or individual behavior \u2014 and how to prevent them. Going beyond public health's traditional purview of infectious disease control and clinical services, many health departments are now exploring how social, economic, and political inequalities, all of which are rooted in power differences, are causing some groups to live sicker and die younger than others. These inequalities show up in indicators like education and income levels, rates of violence, and policies and practices that create advantages for some populations and disadvantages for others, based, for example, on race, gender, or sexuality.\nBudget Deal Takes Important First Step toward Covering All Californians\nToday, California took an important step towards making affordable health care more accessible. The budget deal announced this afternoon includes a $40 million investment in Medi-Cal to enable all low-income children, regardless of immigration status, to access comprehensive health coverage. This budget shows that the Governor and legislature understand that immigrants are vital members of our state and that all children have a right to be healthy. The momentum is on our side, and today\u2019s deal motivates us to continue supporting proposals, including SB 4 (Lara) the Health for All Act, to ensure that Californians of all ages, regardless of immigration status, have access to affordable health care through Medi-Cal and Covered California.\nAdditionally, we are looking forward to the special session on the Medi-Cal program, which now provides health coverage to nearly 12 million recipients, a majority of whom are from communities of color. Although more Californians are covered under Medi-Cal than ever before, many patients are struggling to find providers and specialists in their area. Having coverage means very little if there are no available providers and restoring reimbursement rates could help increase access to vital health care services for our communities throughout the state.\nThe special session on transportation and infrastructure is also a critically important opportunity for California to identify how to invest in more integrated strategies to promote clean, active transportation.",

        "raw_content": "Each year, Chicago Public Schools invests in its physical assets (i.e. buildings and equipment) to ensure children have a safe and quality learning environment. With more than 600 buildings, 60million square feet of space and an estimated $4.9 billion in unmet capital needs, annual capital demand is significant.\nAs part of the $307.6 million fiscal year 2014 (FY2014) Capital Budget, CPS is investing $187.7 million of district resources and another $120 million of outside funding to make our buildings safe, warm and dry; to relieve overcrowding; and to expand access to Career and Technical Education programs. Combined with over $900 million in capital projects in the pipeline from prior years, there are over 200 projects planned or under way to address the needs of hundreds of schools throughout the district.\nThe FY2014 Capital Budget aligns with the district\u2019s five-year plan that will help CPS meet its most urgent needs and educational priorities while recognizing the district\u2019s fiscal constraints. As CPS works to improve facilities and infrastructure in ways that will provide every student in every school in the district with a high-quality education, we remain committed to allocating resources efficiently and effectively.\nThe Five-Year Capital Plan, released on May 1, 2013 and updated on July 24th, details specific projects the district plans on carrying out through 2018. The July 24th update added $120 million in outside funded projects and $25 million in projects funded by CPS resources to the previously announced $161.8 million FY2014 capital plan. The Five-Year Capital Plan, as well as project level detail for the FY2014 budget, can be found at www.cps.edu/capitalplan.\nBelow is a summary of the guiding principles underlying the FY2014 Capital Budget.\nOn May 1, 2013, CPS released the draft Educational Facilities Master Plan, a 10-year outline of community area-level needs and individual school-level needs, in accordance with state statute (P.A. 097-0474, as amended by P.A. 97-1133). We have used the findings and recommendations of the draft Master Plan to guide our FY14 Capital Budget. Areas of focus in the FY14 Capital Budget derived from the draft Master Plan include:\nEducational goals guide the direction. Investments in Career and Technical Education Programs; Early College Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Schools (ECSS); and Recess initiatives and other programmatic initiatives are a top priority for new capital investment.\nSupport Full School Day. Continue building new playgrounds at schools currently lacking the facilities, which provides space for a real recess so students can exercise and refresh.\nRelieve overcrowding. Several communities in the district have too many students for the space available. The five-year capital plan begins to address the need to relieve overcapacity through annual investments in new Annexes.\nPartner for external support. The district has been successful in expanding the scope of its capital program in the past through external funding sources, such as Tax Increment Financing (TIF). Any additional resources, such as through TIFs, can help expand the FY14 \u2013 FY18 Capital Plan beyond the current projects.\nMade up of approximately 40 different programs of study, Career and Technical Education (CTE) is offered as a series of classes focused on preparing students for high-demand industries. Courses incorporate rigorous classroom instruction, hands-on training, real work experience and extra student supports into a college or career curriculum designed to prepare students for future success. The FY2014 Capital Budget expands CTE offerings at Hyde Park, Clemente, Ray Graham, Bowen and Southside Occupational through $4.2 million in investment for lab build-outs.\nRecess is a key component of the Full School Day. Recess provides elementary students with the opportunity to release energy, re-boot and return to the classroom ready to learn. To ensure children have access to a safe place for recess CPS has a five-year, $18 million plan to invest in playgrounds through 2017. The FY2014 budget proposes spending the second $3.6 million installment to construct or replace 12 to 15 playgrounds at schools yet to be determined.\nImprovements and Repairs to Chimneys\nThe district is currently assessing the conditions of chimneys \u2013 many of them tall, aging smokestacks \u2013 at 225 schools. The order of repair will be determined based on life-safety considerations. A total of $5 million has been set aside in the FY2014 Capital Budget for stabilizing or replacing approximately 10 chimneys in a state of disrepair. This investment is the third of a multi-year plan to address all chimneys that may pose future safety issues as the district also is repairing a number of chimneys under the FY2012 and FY2013 Capital Budgets.\nTwo neighborhood schools, Carson School and Hamline, will receive major building renovations. These two schools were identified in the budget because they are in need of imminent repair after years of temporary fixes. At Carson School, $6.4 million is budgeted for roofing, masonry and parapet repair, and fire alarm replacement. At Hamline, $2 million will pay for roofing work, masonry repairs, and ceiling improvements.\nShoesmith School will receive mechanical and electrical upgrades in FY2014 to replace existing boilers and provide air conditioning for the school. CPS has budgeted $4.5 million to complete this project.\nAs a result of the passage of new legislation (PA 98-0018) CPS expects to receive approximately $18.4 million up front and $13.3 million annually from the State School Infrastructure Fund as part of the State School Construction Program that will support debt service for the construction of new schools. We anticipate that this funding will enable us to support approximately $110 million of new school construction.\nOvercrowding Relief\nOriole Park will receive a new $20 million Annex to relieve overcrowding at the school. In addition, CPS will address overcrowding at Dever, Hubbard, Peck and Wildwood as part of the FY2014 budget with investments at the four schools totaling $4.5 million.\nThe Building Interior category consists of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) projects and furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) purchases. ADA projects are completed as needed and include accessible ramps, signage, modifying bathrooms to include accessible stalls and renovating individual classrooms/programs to become accessible. FF&E purchases in the Building Interior category support new programmatic teaching spaces. The FY2014 Capital Budget includes $4.5 million in ADA and FF&E projects.\nInformation Technology Upgrades\nAs schools increase use of online curriculum and web-based applications to complement more traditional teaching methods, the district\u2019s network infrastructure must be upgraded to provide the bandwidth required of the latest technological tools. The FY2014 Capital Budget includes more than $23.6 million of information technology investments or upgrades, including additional bandwidth for the wireless network at approximately 100 schools and in-school network upgrades for 120 schools. This category also includes funds for additional safety and security equipment where needed. Many of the IT investments will be supported by federal E-rate funds.\nIn addition to the FY2014 Capital Budget, CPS has over $900 million in ongoing projects addressing the most pressing structural and programmatic needs at over 200 schools. These projects were started at various times over the last several budget years and include major renovations, new facility construction, building interior projects, programmatic additions, information technology build-outs and early childhood expansion, to name a few. Details of the district\u2019s ongoing capital projects can be found at www.cps.edu/capitalplan.\nThe FY2014 Capital Budget totals $307,615,924 and will be funded by a combination of CPS resources, TIF funds and State School Construction Funding. Below is a summary of the Sources and Uses of the FY2014 Capital Budget by project type.\nDebt Proceeds $287,693,924\nTIF Funding $9,922,000\nState New School Construction Funding $10,000,000\nTotal FY14 Capital Budget Sources $307,615,924\nBuilding Envelope Renovations $30,000,000\nMechanical & Electrical $6,017,000\nBuilding Interior $15,900,000\nMajor Renovations $53,600,000\nNew School Construction $110,000,000\nOvercrowding Relief $24,500,000\nCareer and Technical Education $4,192,400\nFacility Site Improvements $5,460,000\nContingency $25,000,000\nIT, Educational Programming and Other Projects $23,646,524\nCapital Project Support Services $6,900,000\nLegal/ Regulatory Requirements $2,400,000\nTotal FY14 Capital Budget Uses $307,615,924\nIMPACT OF FY2014 CAPITAL PROJECTS ON OPERATING BUDGET\nAll projects considered for inclusion in the annual capital budget are analyzed for projected impact on the district\u2019s operating budget. Due to fiscal constraints, CPS asks departments to reallocate operating funds in order to accommodate any additional operating need resulting from the award of a capital project. For projects with operating savings, such as energy efficiency improvements, CPS is able to capture the savings for the benefit of the district. The FY2014 Capital Budget is estimated to generate operating savings of approximately $5.1 million for the district. Below are details of the operating impact by project type, with savings expressed as a negative number in parentheses and additional operating costs expressed as a positive number.\nBuilding Envelope Renovations Energy Savings\nThe Carson and Hamline projects are expected to have a positive impact on the operating budget as old structural issues are fixed and result in increased energy efficiency, although it is difficult to estimate or measure savings. In addition, once completed, building envelope renovations generally free up engineers and other CPS resources to focus on other buildings in need of attention.\nMechanical and Electrical Energy Increase\nThe Shoesmith Mechanical and Electrical project will likely result in a slight increase in energy costs as efficiency gains from replacing old equipment is more than offset by the additional demand created from air conditioning. However, the new boilers require less maintenance than older, existing machines, which frees up CPS resources for other mechanical systems in need of attention.\nBuilding Interior No Impact\nThe Building Interior category consists of ADA and furniture projects. ADA improvements and furniture purchases require virtually no maintenance and do not impact the operating budget.\nCareer and Technical Education No Impact\nThe FY2014 CTE capital projects are being completed to support programs being funded with operating funds. The completion of these projects does not trigger any additional operating expenses related to the CTE program. For more details on the CTE program please visit: /Programs/Pathways_to_success/CollegeCareer/CTE/Pages/CTE.aspx.\nFacility Site Improvements/ Playgrounds No Impact\nNew playground construction requires some maintenance and cleaning to prolong the life of the playground. While this maintenance requires an engineer or custodian \u2013 thus taking time from the individual\u2019s other job duties \u2013 there is no impact on the operating budget as maintenance is absorbed by current school personnel. The benefits of the playgrounds in conjunction with the district\u2019s recess initiative easily outweigh the small personnel commitment.\nCapital Project Support Services (6.9 Million) Savings\nCapital Support Services are paid out of capital funds because of their sole focus on capital-funded projects. Due to this funding classification, the\u2019s operating budget is able to spread the cost of the Support Services over the life of the project, saving nearly $6.9 million in operating expenses in FY2014.\nNew School Construction $1.3 Million\nThe addition of new buildings in the district brings the need for facilities support personnel such as custodians and engineers, and increases overall district utility costs. We cannot be sure of the actual increase in operating costs related to the new school construction until details are finalized, but we estimate approximately $700,000 in facility operating costs associated with new schools and another $650,000 associated with Principals, Clerks and Counselors allocated on a per school basis.\nInformation Technology, Educational Programming and Other Projects $0.45 Million\nMany of the Information Technology (IT) and Educational Programming projects consist of infrastructure, hardware, or software implementation that does not trigger any additional operating costs. However, the projects listed below require ongoing support totaling $450,000. The sponsoring department, in conjunction with the IT department, will absorb any ongoing operating cost increases with current available staff, resulting in no increase to the district\u2019s operating budget.\nLocal Area Network System Improvement $51,000\nOpteman Network Upgrades $260,000\nDistribution Server Upgrade $139,000\nThe Summary of Capital Projects Fundstable shows FY2014 capital revenues and capital outlays (expenses) to be incurred in FY2014 regardless of the year the project was appropriated. The Fund Balance (unspent revenues received in prior years) accounts for the difference in expected FY2014 capital outlay versus revenues. For example, the district raised approximately $469 million in bond proceeds during FY2013, but only expensed roughly $461 million in the same time period. The remaining $8 million was carried in the Fund Balance for use during FY2014.\nFY2012 - FY14 Summary of Capital Projects Funds\nDebt Proceeds\nLocal revenue of $9.92 million is expected from new Chicago TIF related projects, while $173 million is expected from prior-year TIF funded projects.\nThe state revenue total is comprised of $15.9 million in previously announced state Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) and Early Childhood grants, and $10.0 million for new school construction.\nTotal Appropriations FY2010A FY2011A FY2012A FY2013E FY2014E Remaining Spend\nPrior Year/ Other Expenditures 557.7 347.0 85.3 15.1 3.9 -\nFY2010 Capital Budget 382.1 2.9 99.9 49.9 15.0 37.0 -\nFY2011 Capital Budget 456.0 - 86.6 270.5 90.1 8.8 -\nFY2012 Capital Budget 659.9 - - 102.2 237.0 162.0 158.7\nFY2013 Capital Budget 473.3 - - - 66.1 309.6 97.6\nFY2014 Capital Budget 307.6 - - - - 55.4 252.2\nModern Schools Across Chicago* 446.0 131.2 29.9 44.7 37.6 24.4 -\nTotal Spend by Year $691.8 $563.4 $553.6 $460.9 $601.0 $508.5\n*Some MSAC Projects are included in the Fiscal Year Budget lines\nAll values in millions\nA=Actual E=Estimated",

I do this a lot. The usual forum for this self-dialogue is the car; on the way home from work, or when I\u2019m driving between two places that aren\u2019t far enough apart to justify choosing a song on my iPod, my mouth will run on and on about whatever it is that happens to be on my mind at the time. I have a 35-40 minute commute between work and home, and it\u2019s not unusual for most of the drive home to be taken up with my contextless ramblings.\nI don\u2019t feel too weird about this, although I know others might look at me funny if I told them. For me, it\u2019s the most effective way to feel good about whatever\u2019s on my mind. My brain often won\u2019t let me move forward to thinking about something else until whatever it\u2019s caught on at a given time is OUT; sometimes this takes the form of a blog post or forum post or Facebook status update, but more often than not it manifests itself in a half-hour long one-sided conversation where I explain to no one all my myriad thoughts and feelings about a particular subject.\nIf you know me personally, you may know that I tend to jump between interests, obsessions, and hobbies very frequently. I can\u2019t sit still when it comes to how I use my time, and I tend to burn through hobbies at an alarming rate. I\u2019ll be fairly invested in some subculture or fandom or video game for a week (sometimes less) and then the next week I\u2019ll be completely disinterested. I\u2019ll be really into some subject and spend all my free time at work reading up on it through Wikipedia and other sources, and then when I come in to work on Monday, all the tabs are still open in my browser but I have no desire to look at them. It\u2019s frustrating, to say the least, but I\u2019m getting used to it.\nIt helps that these interests tend to be cyclical; I go through a period of excessive interest in something and then forget about it for a month, a year, and then something external sparks that interest again. Naturally, this leads to repeated coversations with myself again and again. There are certain topics that I\u2019ve talked to myself about to death, and I\u2019m sick of hearing the same things over and over. But I have to do it, have to repeat the same observations whenever I\u2019m reinvesting in a previous interest, because, well, that\u2019s just the annoying way my brain chooses to operate.\nThis post is an experiment to counteract that, potentially anyway. See, I\u2019m into something I haven\u2019t been into for a while; but, it\u2019s a dead horse that I\u2019ve beaten so many times now I\u2019ve lost count: space flight sims.\nThis topic is particularly close to my heart because I grew up on space flight sims. They were one of the most defining features of my childhood, and although I didn\u2019t play too many different ones growing up, I do believe that the effect the ones I did play had on me as a gamer, and even more than that, as a person, cannot be overstated.\nBut that\u2019s not even what this post is about, it\u2019s simply justification for why this is so important to me. See, when I was young, and shortly after my parents got our family our first Windows computer, my dad bought me a game called Independence War, which to this day probably occupies the top spot in my list of favorite video games of all time (FYI, that list has not been put into written form in the last 8+ years, but I\u2019m sure it will be at some point over this blog\u2019s lifetime \u2014 stay posted). It\u2019s just such a fantastic game, and I cannot emphasize this enough. It\u2019s deep, complex, realistic, beautiful (for its time), dark, engaging on every level, smart\u2026and nobody ever played it.\nIndependence War: The best game that no one ever played.\nThere are probably a lot of reasons for that. When I say the game is complex, I mean it \u2014 like many flight sims of the time, it required memorization of over half the keyboard, in addition to proficiency with a joystick. The tutorial (if you could find it in the game) was bare-bones, and even though it explained the basics fairly clearly, actually flying the ship and making it do what you wanted took a massive mental adjustment if you were already familiar with the SFS genre (and you probably wouldn\u2019t be playing this game if you weren\u2019t). In a time where games like TIE Fighter and Freespace (phenomenal games both) were stealing the spotlight with a more action-y, arcade-like approach, Independence War was utilizing Newtonian physics and you were flying a large spacecraft, not a small fighter. You were big and slow and heavy and turning the ship didn\u2019t really do much because physics and you have inertia but more importantly YOU\u2019RE IN SPACE.\nUndoubtedly, this would turn off all but the most hardcore sim fans. It took me years to give the game so much as a chance; my drug of choice at the time was, indeed, TIE Fighter and I was happy with that game\u2019s relative simplicity. When I finally decided to invest in Independence War, I found a mind-blowingly detailed, strategic, and fun game. It\u2019s steeped in hard science (well, mostly, anyway) and it takes place in a universe that manages to feel completely open despite being heavily scripted. It has some of the most satisfying gameplay in any game I\u2019ve ever played, space flight sim or no. Basically, it\u2019s a game that didn\u2019t get anywhere near the recognition it was due. Look on \u201cTop Space Flight Sims\u201d lists around the Internet (what few there are) and it\u2019s on almost none of them. It flew under the radar and it frustrates me to no end that nobody paid it any attention.\nYes, part of this post is a sales pitch for I-War; it\u2019s a game that easily holds up today, especially for space flight sim junkies. And, despite being made for Windows 95/98, it\u2019s for sale on GOG.com and has been updated to work on modern systems. I just started playing it again this last weekend for the first time in\u2026oh I dunno, six years or so? That\u2019s why this is on my mind.\nI love space flight/combat sims. When done correctly (and there are many that are) they are more immersive to me than any other genre of game. The mid to late \u201990s was a golden age for these games: X-Wing, TIE Fighter, Tachyon: The Fringe, Freespace, Freespace 2\u2026you really had no shortage of titles to choose from if you wanted to get into the genre, and there are many more frequently cited as great that I didn\u2019t mention as I never got around to playing them.\nFreespace 2: The SFS everyone played and loved and remembered because it\u2019s fricking epic.\nBut, sadly\u2026the genre died. From the early 2000s up until very recently, you could probably count the number of significant space flight sim releases on one hand. The blame could likely be placed on a number of different things, but mostly I think it correlates with the way gaming as a whole shifted around that time. With the rise of the FPS, CRPG, and RTS genres (most of which were much shallower and simpler than any SFS), the space flight sim became extinct.\nIt\u2019s really hard to kill off an entire genre of video games. They\u2019re resilient, and broad categorization and genre mixing makes identifying such deaths difficult. Off the top of my head, I can only think of a couple other genres which have declined enough to be considered \u201cdead\u201d at any point in time; text-based adventure games come to mind (and the spirit of these games hasn\u2019t really died, it\u2019s just that technology has progressed), as do point-and-click adventure games \u00e0 la Myst and Day of the Tentacle. Both of these genres live on in various incarnations today, but I think it\u2019s safe to say that they both went the way of the space flight sim: neglected and supplanted by games that were more accessible.\nGiven the rise of the other genres that overshadowed the SFS, its death is somewhat perplexing. Looking at the other two dead genres mentioned gives an interesting contrast. Both of those genres collapsed simply because they became irrelevant; why limit a player to text when computers now had the ability to generate graphics? Why limit a player to clicking objects in a static room when advancing 3D technology could make the room itself and the objects within it interactive? Conversely, the SFS died right at the time when computer technology was really exploding, and if any genre had the potential to take advantage of that advancing technology, it was the SFS.\nInstead, StarCraft, Half-Life, and Diablo II all released within a couple years of each other and that was it. The SFS hadn\u2019t become irrelevant due to advancing technology, it had become irrelevant because these three games and others like them had introduced to the masses new ways to think about what gaming could be. You no longer had to invest in one or more hardware peripherals to get the most out of your game. You no longer had to suffer through the often demanding difficulty curves that many space flight sims were known for. You were no longer limited to the same star-filled backdrop mission after mission. The space flight sim hadn\u2019t become stale \u2014 it never even got a chance! Instead, its innate inaccessibility killed it right at the peak of its Golden Age. Computer gaming was no longer an esoteric pursuit limited only to the hardcore supergeeks. The SFS may have naturally appealed to such a crowd, but with the advent of games that were simple enough for anyone with a passing interest in computer entertainment, and the massive influx of gamers that such games brought, it died a quiet death. It wasn\u2019t until years later that anyone noticed \u2014 and even then, it was shrugged off and barely lamented.\nIn retrospect, I\u2019m not that torn up over the way things went down. For one, the greatest things stop right at their peak \u2014 Seinfeld, LCD Soundsystem, Kevin Caldwell \u2014 and space flight sims are no exception. The genre didn\u2019t have time to fester. True, it\u2019s been around in some form or other since 1974 (!), but it didn\u2019t really gain momentum until the mid-90s, and it was only a few years later that it died. In that limited amount of time there was an incredible amount of output, most of which was high-quality. It didn\u2019t get stale. It burned out bright. No regrets.\nAnd, in doing so, it skipped out on the growing pains that most genres have gone through over the last decade and a half (cough cough are we generic enough yet?). Now, the space flight sim is in the process of being reborn, and I\u2019ve never been more excited to be a fan of the genre. The future looks brighter now than it ever has; take a look at Elite: Dangerous, for example. Holy crap. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever been more excited for a game to reach completion than I am with this one. It\u2019s what I was dreaming of when I played Independence War 2 and experienced all of its almost-but-not-quite ambitions. Star Citizen, famous for its record-breaking Kickstarter campaign, looks like it\u2019s shaping up to be something awesome as well. And even though EVE Online will never be a game I touch with a ten-foot pole (for fear of being irrevocably sucked into it in a bad, bad way), the upcoming spinoff looks like it\u2019s got chops.\nElite: Dangerous. I\u2026I think I might quit my job and forsake my friends and give up eating and going to the bathroom to just sit and play this when it comes out.\nThe genre is\u2026mysteriously, I must admit, being revived.\nI don\u2019t understand it; my closest guess is that we\u2019re starting to see the retro cycle hit this particular genre in gaming. Video games are still a relatively new thing in the history of entertainment media, so we haven\u2019t had a whole lot of time to see how quickly the retro cycle oscillates. It\u2019s starting to come into focus though, and I\u2019m thinking that\u2019s mostly to blame.\nWhatever the reason, I\u2019m grateful. We\u2019re about to see, I think, a modest resurgence of a genre I was questioning would ever be revived. It will be interesting to see how this manifests itself in terms of gameplay; whether it will go the route of realism or FPS, the methodical or the fast-paced. I\u2019m hoping for the former but frankly, I\u2019ll be happy with whatever happens. The future is bright, the potential nearly limitless, and, depending on how a few key games do in the next year or so, the possibility of pushing the boundaries and allowing creativity to reign free is enormous.\nIn the meantime, just go get a joystick. You\u2019re not going to want to miss out on the Space Flight Sim v2. And to tide you over until the upcoming games are released, go buy and play Independence War. That joystick\u2019s not going to go to waste either way.\n3 Responses to blatant nostalgia #4: death and rebirth\nMentioning dead videogame genres: side-scrolling \u201cbeat \u2019em ups\u201d are completely dead and there doesn\u2019t seem to be a way for them to ever come back again. And that\u2019s really sad because a few of those series (Double Dragon, Final Fight, TMNT, Ninja Gaiden) and standalone titles (River City Ransom) were probably the games I played more consistently than any others growing up. I\u2019m only aware of a couple of attempts to bring the genre into 3-D worlds but they felt really clumsy to me and I don\u2019t think anyone liked them.\nI don\u2019t have any hard evidence in the way of known upcoming titles or anything, but side-scrolling beat-em-ups have a ton of potential to be big on the indie scene. Lots of indie developers these days are bringing old 2D genres into the spotlight again. Games like Limbo and Fez (among others) have made the 2D sidescrolling platformer relevant again. Although not exactly an adventure game, Five Nights at Freddy\u2019s takes the simplicity of point-and-click games and brings it into this decade. The indie scene seems largely obsessed with revamping older genres and tropes and updating them to make them engaging to the modern gamer. I think it\u2019s only a matter of time before beat-em-ups get the same treatment.\nHalf the reason I paid $100 for a used Xbox 360 two years ago was so I could play Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Unfortunately the system broke after that and even after I got it fixed I had a ton of problems ever getting it to run flawlessly or actually startup in less than 10 minutes. Still, that\u2019s a great, great game. But it\u2019s totally derivative (which is the whole point, I guess) so I don\u2019t know if it really points a way forward for the genre or not.",

        "raw_content": "Seeing people, not prisoners\nBy Kathleen Smith September 28, 2016\nUpon being released from prison in the United States, the prospects for ex-offenders are grim. In some states, they might get $20 and a pair of clothes to wear out the door. If they\u2019re lucky, they will receive a bus ticket back to the county where they were arrested. Almost immediately, they must secure or arrange for transportation, food and shelter in a world that might look very different from the one they were living in before their incarceration.\nRebuilding a life that is empowering and free of crime is anything but easy for ex-offenders. If your family lives in public housing, you can\u2019t return home with them. If you have to check the box on employment applications saying that you\u2019ve been charged with a felony, many people may hesitate to hire you. You might struggle to regain custody of your children, or you might be returning to a traumatic environment that is violent and unstable.\nAccording to the National Institute of Justice, almost 80 percent of former offenders will be rearrested within five years of their release. Of these, an average of 30 percent will return to prison because of a parole violation. The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports that ex-offenders are also two to four times more likely than the general population to have a mental illness, which puts them at increased risk for substance use issues. The odds certainly aren\u2019t in their favor.\nWhen faced with the task of helping and empowering individuals who are exiting the criminal justice system, counselors confront a looming initial question: \u201cWhere do I begin?\u201d\nThe answer to that question is as diverse as the counseling profession itself because many practitioners commit to tackling different facets of a client\u2019s transition from incarceration to life on the outside. For instance, counselors facilitate career development. They connect ex-offenders with social supports and mentors who show that there is hope for a different life. Counselors provide invaluable trauma treatment to heal old and present wounds, and they train professionals within the penal system to empathize and start real conversations about change with those who are imprisoned or are preparing to transition out.\nWhat these methods have in common is one of the unique qualities of the counseling profession: a person-centered approach that focuses on making space for a new narrative. Together, and from many angles, counselors are helping ex-offenders create new stories for themselves that don\u2019t have to end with a clanging prison door.\nFostering career development\nIn 2012, a student in Mark Scholl\u2019s career development class inspired him to consider a new kind of work. The student, a probation officer by day, created a career support group for ex-offenders and invited Scholl to co-facilitate. Scholl, a member of the American Counseling Association, used his expertise in career counseling to design skill-building activities for the group, and he found that he loved the work.\nWhen Scholl moved two years later to join the Department of Counseling at Wake Forest University as an associate professor, he wanted to continue this work in the community of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. After consulting with friends, he found that the public library was the safest and most encouraging space to work with ex-offenders. \u201cThe library doesn\u2019t have the politics of other settings, which distinguish between social workers and counselors and psychologists. It doesn\u2019t have those turf issues because it\u2019s just about serving people in the community,\u201d he says.\nThe New Leaf Career Development Group has been running steadily ever since. Over a period of five weeks, Scholl guides a group of four to six ex-offenders through a series of workshops. Topics include job skills assessments, r\u00e9sum\u00e9 writing, interviewing skills and job search strategies, all of which Scholl approaches with a postmodern slant. Activities also reflect many techniques found in solution-focused and narrative therapies.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a tendency on the part of the clients who\u2019ve been released from prison to dwell on the past and to focus on their problem,\u201d Scholl says. \u201cTurning that around and focusing on positive alternative narratives is both therapeutic and empowering to the members.\u201d\nTo engage these narratives, Scholl asks participants in the first session to create a metaphor for how they relate to their futures. He believes this technique provides therapeutic leverage because he and the other participants can encourage the individual group members to construct more adaptive metaphors throughout future sessions.\nOne group participant, whom Scholl calls \u201cSandy,\u201d used the metaphor of being a runner in a baseball game. Sandy felt like she had been stranded at third base and frustrated that she couldn\u2019t make it home. Scholl and the other group members helped Sandy open up her metaphor, suggesting that perhaps there was only a rain delay in the game or that she was \u201crehabbing\u201d after an injury.\n\u201cWe helped her emphasize her self-advocacy,\u201d Scholl says. \u201cShe began to see her ability to choose her own direction and access resources.\u201d\nIn their final graduation session, participants share their narratives about what they gained from the workshop and how they view the next chapter in their lives. Family members and friends are invited to respond with how hearing their loved ones\u2019 stories has affected them.\nBecause many members of the group face additional challenges, such as homelessness or substance use, Scholl admits that success for group members is sometimes difficult to define. He and his colleagues at Wake Forest are currently conducting a qualitative study to evaluate the impact of the workshop on participants\u2019 lives.\nIndividual successes do stand out, however. One member, whom Scholl refers to as \u201cCarl,\u201d completed the workshop series this past summer. Carl was an ex-offender who came to the workshop after looking for employment for an entire year without success. \u201cHe had difficulty remaining positive during mock interviews,\u201d Scholl recalls. \u201cWe worked with him on emphasizing his strengths and how he could potentially contribute to a prospective work setting. During the last workshop, he announced that he had been hired as a forklift operator in a warehouse position. This, as you can imagine, was a very memorable success for the client and for our team.\u201d\nReflecting on his experience with the career development group, Scholl says the possibility of empowerment motivates him to continue the work. \u201cThere\u2019s a feeling of futility when you have to check a box on an application [saying you are an ex-offender]. It feels like a strike against you before the employer even meets you. So,\u201d he says, \u201cI really feel a strong inclination to do what I can to empower these folks.\u201d\nMentoring ex-offenders\nBefore she began working with ex-offenders, ACA member Bethany Lanier\u2019s inspiration came from television. \u201cI loved Law and Order: SVU. I wanted to do that kind of work and figure out why people do what they do,\u201d she says.\nAs a master\u2019s student in clinical mental health counseling at Radford University in Virginia, Lanier worked with women who were up for release from prison, teaching them life skills and strategies for navigating their home environments. When she moved to Alabama to begin a doctoral program in counselor education at Auburn University, Lanier\u2019s passion for that work didn\u2019t end.\nThe numbers are daunting in the Alabama justice system. Facilities are operating at 190 percent of capacity, leaving little to no money (or energy) left to focus on combating recidivism. But rather than choosing to feel overwhelmed, Lanier, as a graduate assistant, began helping to develop a mentoring program for the local women\u2019s prison and writing grants for funding. While doing research, which Lanier has since presented at an ACA Conference, she found evidence of the effectiveness of mentoring programs with the ex-offender population. She cites one program in particular, the Mentoring4Success initiative in Kansas, that effectively cut the state\u2019s recidivism rate in half.\nInspired by other successes, Lanier continued working with her colleagues at Auburn to train mentors in Alabama. The mentors serve a number of functions for women exiting the correctional system, including teaching them how to navigate applications for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (also known as food stamps) or the Women Infants Children (WIC) program. Because many of the mentors are themselves ex-offenders, they also provide inspiring examples of success and needed social support.\n\u201cYou have to have somebody that\u2019s going to be supportive, somebody who\u2019s going to answer all your questions and help you get where you need to go,\u201d Lanier says. \u201cIt\u2019s good for people to see somebody and say, \u2018I don\u2019t have to be like this, because she made it.\u2019\u201d\nAs a future counselor educator and a member of the International Association of Addictions and Offender Counselors (IAAOC), which is a division of ACA, Lanier has also given careful consideration to how to talk with students who are hesitant about working with ex-offenders. \u201cStudents say, \u2018Oh, I don\u2019t want to do that because it\u2019s not safe\u2019 or \u2018It challenges my beliefs\u2019 because we\u2019re in the Deep South. But once people get out into the field, they realize you\u2019re going to see these issues anywhere you go.\u201d\nFor instance, Lanier explains, anyone working in a community mental health center or even in schools is likely to encounter the challenges and rewards of working with ex-offenders. For that reason, she believes counselor educators need to prepare students to think about the unique needs of this underserved population.\nAs for current counselors who would like to explore the power of mentorship in working with ex-offenders, Lanier encourages these helping professionals to consider the unique skills they can bring to the work, including active listening and empathetic understanding. \u201cDon\u2019t be afraid to take a risk,\u201d she emphasizes.\nAddressing trauma\nIn the literature, rates of posttraumatic stress disorder among incarcerated populations range anywhere from 4 percent to 21 percent, with women being disproportionately affected. Regardless, advocating for trauma work as a component in reentry preparation can be a tough sell. While focusing on basic needs such as housing and employment, ex-offenders may not have the money or the time to find effective therapy for trauma. Therefore, counselors have begun working with prisoners while they are still incarcerated to address their trauma and connect them to resources on the outside.\nACA member Tara Jungersen had already spent a significant portion of her career working with trauma and intimate partner violence before coming to Nova Southeastern University in 2009. But after arriving there, her colleague, Lenore Walker, introduced her to the Survivor Therapy Empowerment Program (STEP). A manualized treatment program, STEP uses principles of feminist therapy, survivor therapy and trauma theory to address common issues found in the incarcerated population. Its goal is to empower victims to become survivors.\n\u201cIf somebody is stuck in a trauma cycle, if they are completely disconnected from experiencing emotion and safety in relationships, then they may lack the protective factors that can help them move forward in life,\u201d Jungersen explains.\nAs the acronym suggests, the treatment program walks participants through 12 independent \u201csteps\u201d that help in dealing with trauma and its effects. Leaders teach relaxation skills, interpersonal skills and cognitive restructuring, and they also help participants examine their attachment patterns in relationships and grieve past relationships. The program is also focused on connecting women to resources on the outside to reduce recidivism.\n\u201cA person may be on a five-day hold, and they\u2019ll be gone the next week. So we want to make sure that each step we teach can stand alone and that [participants] are able to find a qualified trauma therapist when they are released,\u201d says Jungersen, who has led STEP groups herself and trained others to lead the groups. \u201cWe know that it\u2019s challenging to find reduced-cost and pro bono services.\u201d\nJungersen also notes that leaving prison can feel different for each person depending on the individual\u2019s experience. For some women, jail provides structure and a departure from the chaos of their daily lives, which often can include drug addiction or physical and sexual abuse. But for others, the experience of incarceration itself is highly traumatic. For instance, a victim of sex trafficking may find herself in the same prison as her trafficker, or offenders may face abuse or neglect by correctional officers. Running a treatment program that promotes safety and stability can prove difficult if individuals are always on high alert and constantly feel exposed to danger, Jungersen says.\nDespite the challenges, the STEP program has been employed successfully with both men and women in the United States and internationally. Jungersen acknowledges that when working with ex-offenders, measuring success requires different parameters than those used in traditional counseling settings. Qualitative data collected by Jungersen and her colleagues have indicated that STEP participants, who learn about their trauma symptoms and how these tie in with their substance abuse or other behaviors, are more open to seeking mental health treatment after their release as compared with their attitudes prior to participating in the program.\nRegardless of whether counselors are doing trauma work specifically, Jungersen encourages them to consider the ways that trauma can affect ex-offenders and to avoid making generalizations about this population. \u201cYou\u2019re going to have a wide distribution of cognitive functioning, a wide distribution of social skills and differences in individual trauma triggers,\u201d she says. \u201cMost ex-offender treatment is done in a group format. You\u2019ve got to scan that entire group, recognize the nonverbals that indicate someone is getting triggered and adjust the conversation accordingly.\u201d\nFostering motivation\nMelanie Iarussi was first introduced to motivational interviewing in her master\u2019s program. She liked the method so much that she decided to become \u201ctrained as a trainer\u201d so she could teach others how to elicit meaningful, change-oriented conversations. Now an assistant professor of counselor education at Auburn University, she has found an opportunity to provide training for probation and parole officers in the state of Alabama. By teaching the officers motivational interviewing techniques, Iarussi and others are introducing a different mindset to the people who work in corrections.\nMotivational interviewing is an increasingly common technique encouraged by the National Institute of Corrections and other organizations. The technique\u2019s focus on creating collaborative conversations and guiding people toward prosocial change is a drastic departure from many of the punitive, fear-based techniques the criminal justice system has traditionally employed. Because counselors have fairly limited interactions with ex-offenders, Iarussi and others see an opportunity to educate those who have the most access to this population \u2014 parole and probation officers.\n\u201cWe know the prison system as it is does not work, and we know that taking a punitive approach is not effective in facilitating behavior change,\u201d says Iarussi, a member of ACA and IAAOC. \u201cBy introducing MI [motivational interviewing], we\u2019re trying to capitalize on what does work, and we\u2019re bringing some counseling concepts to the conversation that can facilitate lasting change among people in the legal system.\u201d\nTo teach and improve motivational interviewing skills, Iarussi asked her trainees among the probation and parole officers to record their conversations with their clients. In turn, she listened to the conversations and provided feedback. She says the officers who were able to make the shift to use the new skills noticed that they were having completely different conversations with their parolees.\n\u201cThey were able to help their clients recognize that they do have choices over what they want to do. It\u2019s not that they are trying to force them into something or back them into a corner, but they can present them with options,\u201d she says. \u201cYou can have the conversation, but the choice is ultimately theirs.\u201d\nIarussi acknowledges that empathy, a cornerstone of both counseling and motivational interviewing, is a challenging concept to teach. \u201cProbation and parole officers have multiple roles. They\u2019re not counselors,\u201d she says. \u201cTheir primary job is to enforce the law. So \u2026 they have to make decisions about when it is appropriate to be empathetic and have these conversations, and when it is appropriate to enforce the law. And when it is maybe a combination of those two.\u201d\nOne probation officer stands out in Iarussi\u2019s mind because they both noticed a remarkable change in his work. In one training, Iarussi presented a video of a probation officer who wasn\u2019t paying attention to the client. The officer was constantly interrupting and not giving the client the time he needed. Her trainee came to her later and said, \u201cI was that person. I was that officer who treated people that way.\u201d\nIarussi describes how the officer soon after began submitting tapes that featured longer, more in-depth conversations, whereas previously he had been meeting with his clients for only one or two minutes at a time. In the new tapes, he and his clients were discussing concerns and issues about parenting and work. The officer noticed the difference he was making. \u201cHe definitely felt the shift,\u201d Iarussi says. \u201cBy changing his approach, he was making a significant impact in his clients\u2019 lives.\u201d\nBecause each person who is incarcerated receives a range of services and interventions and faces a unique set of challenges, it is difficult to know what exactly keeps ex-offenders from returning to jail or prison. As research expands, however, professionals are gaining a clearer sense of what can decrease recidivism. Among the elements that have been identified as effective: assessing for risk, engaging individual motivators, using cognitive-behavioral strategies and providing ongoing support in the community. These are all strategies familiar to those in the counseling profession.\nWhether it is using career counseling skills, trauma treatment or motivational techniques, counselors are taking their existing skills and intervening in the lives of people who are exiting the correctional system. They are also serving as advocates for systemic and legislative changes that give ex-offenders a better chance for success.\nAbove all, Iarussi and others believe counselors are in prime position to help their communities and the criminal justice system begin viewing ex-offenders as individuals rather than a series of daunting statistics. Counselors are trained to take off the lens of judgment and to empathize with experiences that might be far from their own. Both of these skills make the field uniquely suited to work with this population.\n\u201cWhat I experienced is that ex-offenders expect us to treat them like everyone else does,\u201d Lanier says. \u201cSure, there is an extra layer of rapport building, because maybe they haven\u2019t had anybody listen to them [before]. All they wanted was for me to hear them and understand they weren\u2019t terrible people, but [rather] people who had made some bad decisions. As their counselors, we have to put our preconceived notions behind us and move forward.\u201d\nKathleen Smith is a licensed professional counselor and a doctoral candidate at George Washington University.

DeDiego\nAccording to census data, there were roughly 125,000 same-sex couples raising approximately 220,000 children in the United States in 2010. Since that time, increasing numbers of same-sex couples have declared committed partnerships, capturing the attention of policymakers and bringing the issue of legal recognition of same-sex partnerships to the forefront of politics.\nIn 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court heard the landmark case of Obergefell v. Hodges and ultimately declared it unconstitutional for any state to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples. In doing so, the Supreme Court said that rights historically awarded to married partners, including adoption rights, must be extended to same-sex couples. Although state legislation traditionally determines specific limitations to adoption rights awarded to married couples, under Obergefell v. Hodges, said spousal rights must apply to all couples equally.\nThis past summer, a federal court judge ruled adoption by same-sex couples legal in all 50 states. However, judges who make decisions to award parental rights can still create more stringent guidelines or additional hurdles for same-sex couples. So although this ruling is monumental in taking strides toward equality, it does not eliminate subtle discrimination experienced by same-sex couples seeking adoption rights.\nAs institutional and legal barriers to same-sex marriage and parenthood continue to diminish, counselors are increasingly called on to provide support for same-sex couples who are establishing legally recognized families. CACREP (Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs) accreditation standards require programs to provide counseling students with training for supporting various issues in diverse relationships and families. However, more training and awareness are needed to properly prepare counselors to offer support specifically for same-sex couples and families.\nFor many years, same-sex couples could not find appropriately trained counselors to provide family and couples therapy. Now same-sex couples feel welcomed and have more referral options for counseling, but counselors still often lack specific training in best practices for supporting these couples and families headed by same-sex parents. Considering the systemic influences that affect same-sex couples, a counseling approach that also considers the systemic context is ideal.\nStructural family therapy (SFT), developed by Salvador Minuchin, offers a means for counselors to address systemic issues in various contexts. The SFT approach is empirically validated and offers a map for counselors to conceptualize a family system on the basis of the roles the family members play. In addition to examining the family as a system, SFT takes into account the greater societal contexts that have an impact on the family.\nMinuchin based his theory on the assumption that each family member plays a role within the family. Using Minuchin\u2019s therapeutic approach, a counselor observes patterns in the family\u2019s interactions to determine the hierarchy within the family system. Subsystems such as spousal, parental and sibling may also be present within the family. Any imbalance in the power, boundaries or roles within the family represents dysfunction in the system.\nThe goal of SFT is to adapt the structure of the family to the needs of its members to improve the function of the family system. This goal is accomplished in three phases:\n1) Joining with the family\n2) Enacting interactions within the therapy environment to observe family member roles\n3) Creating unbalance to expand current roles, introduce boundaries and accommodate the needs of the family members in the system\nAs part of the SFT process, the counselor \u201cjoins\u201d the family system to correct dysfunction. Minuchin described \u201cjoining\u201d as the process of the counselor being accepted by the family to create a therapeutic bond. The trust gained in the joining process creates a therapeutic system that lasts the duration of the counseling relationship. The counselor works to help the family establish clear roles, while deconstructing power within the family system and subsystems. The goal is to create a functional hierarchy that meets the needs of family members.\nOne advantage to using SFT with same-sex parents is that this approach considers larger systemic influences on the family. Counselors working with same-sex couples may need to address unique systemic challenges. Thus, it is important to raise awareness in the counseling community about such issues so that we can address biases, practice awareness of issues facing the population and have a broad societal view of the family system and societal challenges impacting families with same-sex parents.\nThe road to parenthood\nTraditional conception of children is not an option for same-sex couples. Thus, the road to parenthood for these couples is often emotional, complicated and challenging.\nSome of these couples may already have children from previous relationships. SFT provides guidelines for work with blended families, but in many respects, same-sex couples have unique challenges in establishing family systems. In the past, many states would not recognize the adoption of children within same-sex partnerships. For same-sex partners with children from previous relationships, this meant that only the biological parent was able to serve as the legal guardian of these children. This created stress and conflict within relationships because the biological parent\u2019s current partner was left without any legal rights as a parent. Not having legal guardianship of a child can cause same-sex partners to feel unclear about their parental identities. In turn, this may result in conflict within the partnership or struggles to establish a parenting relationship with children.\nEgg donation and surrogacy: Not all couples have biological children from previous relationships, but the issue of legal co-guardianship is persistent regardless of how same-sex partners become parents. Same-sex couples may choose to pursue parenthood through surrogacy or through in vitro fertilization using a sperm or egg donor. In both cases, couples must choose which partner will be allowed to have the biological identity as the child\u2019s parent. Because state laws have not always recognized the adoption rights of same-sex couples, the biological parent of the child often maintains all legal rights of guardianship.\nConsidering recent court rulings, the nonbiological parent may now seek status as a legal guardian. However, this parent may have experienced a lack of power in the family for some time because he or she was previously unable to identify as either a biological or legal parent.\nAdditionally, decisions must be made regarding the degree to which surrogates or sperm/egg donors will be included in and involved with the family. Thus, these family systems will potentially have multiple layers and subsystems, meaning that the same-sex partners may experience additional stress as they navigate choices concerning the level of connection to donors and surrogates.\nTraditional adoption: The Supreme Court ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges acknowledged the possibility of same-sex couples facing continued institutional barriers, specifically naming instances of adoption agencies affiliated with religious organizations denying child placements for these couples. This past summer, a federal judge ruled a state ban on same-sex marriage to be unconstitutional, thus eliminating some systemic barriers to parenthood. Although overt discrimination in denying same-sex couples opportunities for adoption was eliminated, subtle discrimination that reinforces heterosexist standards of parenthood can still force same-sex couples to face stigma and additional stress during the adoption process. Same-sex couples have traditionally encountered legal obstacles, high standards for approval and long waiting periods to become adoptive parents. Historically, these institutional barriers have been substantial, causing many same-sex couples to turn to the foster care system in their pursuit of parenthood.\nFoster to adopt: Foster care agencies often permitted same-sex couples to serve as foster parents, but there was always the question of whether the court system would subsequently deny these couples the option to legally adopt. This was often confusing and emotionally distressing for couples hoping to start families and gain the identity of parents. The Supreme Court has addressed these legal barriers, but it is unclear at this point what institutional and social barriers will remain for same-sex foster parents seeking legal adoption.\nAdditionally, same-sex couple foster parents may experience a lack of institutional support in preparing foster children for placement with a gay or lesbian couple. Thus, the adjustment to the placement can be more stressful for both the couple and the child. Couples may also experience subtle discrimination and a lack of sensitivity regarding pronoun use in record-keeping (for example, suggesting a father and mother caring for children, as opposed to two mothers or two fathers).\nIn addition to the typical stresses associated with blended families or adoptive parenting relationships, same-sex couples often feel that they must fight to gain recognition in their identities as parents, both legally and socially. This can create high levels of stress within these partnerships.\nIn 1979, Urie Bronfenbrenner discussed various social and political systems that influence individuals as members of society, including those individuals navigating marriage and parenthood. In addition to considering the legal and institutional challenges faced by same-sex couples in gaining identity as parents, counselors using SFT must consider the influences of the societal systems to which these clients belong. Unfortunately, discrimination and systemic challenges are still present after same-sex couples become parents, and counselors may need to help families navigate additional systemic challenges in raising children.\nInstitutional and legal challenges: Same-sex couples have long faced institutional barriers in gaining validation and recognition of their partnerships and marriages. Obergefell v. Hodges awarded the right to marry to same-sex couples and extended historically implied rights to same-sex couples who marry. However, states reserve the ultimate power to choose which rights to award (and to what degree) to married couples, including taxation, sharing of property and legal adoption. These discriminatory barriers exist beyond the courts. Among the institutional challenges that present struggles for same-sex couples attempting to establish family systems are division of work, parental leave and guardianship rights in caring for children.\nSame-sex couples may experience challenges in deciding how to adapt their work schedules when raising children because of less employer flexibility, especially in the case of gay men. Thus, one partner may become the \u201cbreadwinner,\u201d establishing greater financial power within the relationship. Given that legal adoption is not always permitted for nonbiological parents in a same-sex partnership, gaining access to a child\u2019s medical or school records may also be a challenge.\nIn addition, same-sex couples often face challenges simply in finding a residence for their families. Research shows that landlords have traditionally assumed that same-sex couples will be troublesome tenants. Given limited choices for renting property, one partner may then become the legal owner of the couple\u2019s purchased property. Particularly if this partner is already identified as the breadwinner of the family or the biological parent of the couple\u2019s child, this situation can create a further imbalance of power within the parental subsystem.\nSocial challenges: Beyond institutional challenges, same-sex parents also experience subtle discrimination in social groups. Same-sex parents may not feel that they fit within traditional parenting roles and thus may not feel as accepted in social groups with heterosexual parents. Socially, same-sex parents can be the targets of hypercriticism for their parenting decisions by heterosexual parents.\nCriticism and rejection are not isolated only to social groups. Families of origin may also express disapproval of same-sex couples becoming parents. Ultimately, same-sex couples may feel like outsiders in both social and familial groups, thus creating another source of conflict within the partnership.\nGiven that they are raising children in a heterosexual-centered society, same-sex parents may lack role models for navigating decisions as parents. When combined with social invalidation, this can leave same-sex parents feeling alone and lost.\nFinding social support provides comfort for parents and children who are experiencing hyperawareness of the dominant heterosexual culture. Thus, same-sex parents often seek to create a new \u201cfamily of choice\u201d for social support. Same-sex parents often worry that their children will be subjected to heteronormative standards and social expectations in school. Children who have same-sex parents may experience discrimination or bias in social groups. Having the social support of other same-sex couples makes it easier for parents and their children to cope with discrimination and heterosexual norms.\nConsiderations for practice\nUnder SFT, the counselor joins with the family, becoming a part of the system instead of being a bystander to the process. Once this happens, the counselor will address issues of power, hierarchy, boundaries among family members and rules within the family system. The focus on family roles allows the counselor to adapt to the family system beyond traditional gender roles, which makes SFT ideal for work with same-sex couples and their families. Same-sex couples lack the traditional \u201cmother\u201d and \u201cfather\u201d role within the family, so couples establish parenting identities based on their unique family system.\nTo determine the structure of the family system, a counselor must observe patterns of behavior among family members. In many cases, the lack of traditional gender roles among same-sex couples creates opportunities for greater balance in home and work responsibilities and egalitarian roles in parenting. Same-sex couples often experience greater fluidity and equality in parenting responsibilities than do heterosexual couples. Thus, decision-making in distribution of power within the partnership becomes more intentional.\nThe more gender-fluid roles of parents in same-sex families may challenge a counselor\u2019s fundamental views of family. Thus, a counselor working with a same-sex couple must be aware of personal biases, or else the counselor may project gender labels onto family members. In addition, in recognizing one parent as more nurturing, it would be important not to automatically project onto the other parent the label of disciplinarian, especially considering the complementary function of parents under SFT. Instead, realize that gender fluidity in parenting roles means that same-sex parents may be sharing aspects of roles as both nurturer and disciplinarian.\nIn part because families with same-sex parents may not always receive support from biological family members, it is common for these parents to include neighbors or other social supports in their definition of the family system. The SFT approach allows for a more flexible definition of family. Thus, same-sex parents can invite social supports beyond the biological family to participate in family therapy. A large piece of SFT involves examining the authority exercised with children. This provides the counselor with insight regarding the hierarchy within the family system. Remembering that social supports may become an influential part of same-sex families, the counselor should remain open to considering the authority of nonparental figures within the family system.\nCounselors must practice awareness of societal influences on families because these challenges often affect the balance of power within the family. Although societal issues may not be the presenting issue within the family, the influence of societal systems is always present. Additionally, counselors must practice ongoing reflection to be aware of biases in their work with this population. Working to eliminate subtle discrimination in the counseling environment \u2014 for instance, by creating gender-neutral intake forms \u2014 can create a welcoming environment for same-sex couples and their families.\nSFT provides a framework to conduct counseling that considers systemic influences on families with same-sex parents. Recognizing the systemic and social barriers that same-sex parents face is a huge first step. Counselors must be aware of their own biases regarding their views of families when working with same-sex parents. In joining with the family system, counselors should be cautious not to assign gender roles to family members. Counselors also must be open to including social supports outside of the immediate family in the counseling relationship.\nBy practicing awareness of systemic barriers facing same-sex couples and being open to unique family systems, counselors can provide much-needed services to these now legally recognized partners who are navigating the road to parenthood and parenting in a heteronormative world.\nAmanda C.

Many of these clients are recent immigrants.\nAccording to those involved with the effort, the partnership provides the student interns with a chance to hone their counseling skills while also offering them a firsthand lesson in advocacy and social justice issues.\nThe Bethesda Health Center (BHC) provides free primary care, diabetes and hypertension management, and health education for low-income and uninsured residents of Charlotte and the surrounding county. The UNC Charlotte counseling interns offer mental health care alongside these physical health services.\nThe partnership provides much-needed care to minority populations who are, statistically, the least likely to seek or access mental health services, says Daniel Gutierrez, an assistant professor of counseling at UNC Charlotte, as well as a licensed professional counselor, licensed mental health counselor and member of the American Counseling Association.\nIt has also provided counseling students with some valuable learning that transcends the typical textbook lessons, says Katherine Wilkin, an ACA member and clinical mental health counseling student at UNC Charlotte. Wilkin, who was born in Venezuela, is able to offer counseling to BHC clients in Spanish and English.\nThe experience has opened Wilkin\u2019s eyes to the cultural factors that often increase risks for mental health struggles, including the stress of navigating a language barrier and acculturation to a new location.\n\u201cMy experience at Bethesda Health Clinic has enriched my training and has strengthened my passion for providing mental health services to the Hispanic population in their native language of Spanish,\u201d Wilkin says. \u201c\u2026 This program exposes counselors and students to a diverse population with unique issues. The [U.S.\u2019s] growing Hispanic population calls for mental health professionals to be sensitive and aware of the cultural considerations when working with this population.\u201d\nUNC Charlotte\u2019s work at BHC was highlighted recently by National Public Radio (NPR). CT Online reached out to Gutierrez for a Q+A to find out more.\nCT: In your own words, how does this program meet a need?\nDG: Latinos are the fastest-growing and largest minority in the U.S., and they experience mental health disorders at the same rate \u2014 some argue at higher rates \u2014 as the majority culture. Yet, when compared to the majority culture, they are the least likely to access mental health treatment. They, on average, receive a lower quality of care and end up presenting with more severe symptoms.\nThere is no doubt that there is a great need for effective and accessible mental health care for this population. However, there are numerous barriers that keep Latinos from accessing mental health treatment, such as language difficulties, a lack of appropriately trained mental health workers, stigma and an overall difficulty trusting providers.\nOn the other hand, counselor educators everywhere preach the importance of teaching our students to work with underserved and vulnerable populations, but we don\u2019t always have the opportunity to give our students quality learning experiences doing this work. This program meets two needs: a) it creates access to appropriate mental health services for an underserved population; and b) it creates a diverse and dynamic learning experience for our students.\nWhat have you learned from this program?\nI don\u2019t think you have enough room [in this article] to describe what I\u2019ve learned. I learned how complicated it is to set up a program like this. I learned the importance of doing work with the community and not just in the community. This program has also reaffirmed my belief that understanding people is more important than understanding illness.\nTalk about the logistics of how this program came together. What did it take to get started?\nFirst off, the real credit goes to people like Wendy Mateo, the executive director of the Bethesda Health Center. Before all the publicity from NPR, and with limited resources and under some very challenging circumstances, Wendy was wholeheartedly serving the Latino community by providing medical care and chronic health management to the low-income and uninsured immigrant families in Charlotte. She does an amazing job and is an inspiration to helpers everywhere.\nWhen we met with Wendy, she expressed that although they were making considerable strides in improving the physical health of Latinos in Charlotte, there was a great need for mental health services for their patients. We quickly realized that serving at a clinic that helps the underserved in Charlotte would be an amazing opportunity for our counseling students, and that our counseling students could provide the services that Bethesda truly needed. So, we brought together a team of faculty from different departments and began conversations about building counseling capacity at this free clinic.\nWe began by first evaluating the mental health needs for the current patients. We conducted chart reviews, spoke with staff at Bethesda and began to develop an understanding of what kind of mental health needs they were facing. We then had a series of meetings evaluating space needs; developing the right type of forms; discussing issues related to supervision, ethics, confidentiality, HIPPA compliance, how to manage interpreters; and examining the whole process for providing services.\nI think we were all very aware that starting this program had many moving parts and that it wasn\u2019t going to be as easy as just putting two chairs in a corner and assigning clients to students. It was a long and complex process, if we were going to do this right. These clients are already underserved by the community and are statistically more likely to receive substandard quality of care. It was important that we gave them the best care we could and that our students were going to have a positive experience.\nAfter establishing a format and structure for the services, we recruited two doctoral-level counseling students who were licensed professional counselors to begin seeing clients. We called this our pilot study. We evaluated the progress of these initial students and used this data to inform the placement of master\u2019s students. That following semester, we began placing master\u2019s counseling students in their internships and practicums at the site. Thus far, the clients and the students both consider this program a great success.\nBased on your experience, what advice would you give to counselors who might want to get involved in something similar in their local area?\nOne of the key members of our team, Mark DeHaven, is known for saying, \u201cCollaboration is good, but partnership is better.\u201d Too often we try to collaborate with community sites because they are great places to get data or place students, and that has merit. However, when you partner with a community agency, you begin to share responsibility and work together toward common goals, and that\u2019s a whole other wonderfully beautiful thing.\nI invite those who want to start these kinds of programs to begin by building strong community partnerships. It is complicated and sometimes cumbersome to partner with community agencies, but it has to be less about you and your agenda, and more about the needs of the people you are serving.\nIt\u2019s also important that you develop a strong team of like-minded people [who are] willing to not just talk the talk but also walk the walk. I am lucky to work along some great and passionate people from different departments. Our team consists of Edward Wierzalis, a fellow Department of Counseling faculty member and the UNCC counseling program clinical coordinator; Mark DeHaven, a distinguished professor in public health science; Roger Suclupe, a lecturer from social work; Amy Peterman, an associate professor and director of clinical training in the Health Psychology Department; and a counseling Ph.D. student, Carolina Benitez.\nThis team made this project come together. So, my second piece of advice for future counselors is to build a good team.\nThe NPR piece says this came about because you were \u201clooking to get more involved in the community.\u201d Can you elaborate? Why is that important to you?\nWell, I think this is probably a pretty personal question. I think everyone on our team serves in the community for different reasons. For me, I am driven by the spiritual ideas of welcoming the stranger, reaching out to those deemed the least and doing justice. I was also mentored by people who continually stated that in a world with so many health disparities, economic disparities and so much need, counselor educators should strive to go beyond mere talk and do impactful work.\nAfter the NPR story went national, the first words from my mentor\u2019s mouth were, \u201cSome people got help \u2014 and that is the important thing.\u201d I hang that email by my desk at work because it keeps me focused. Those of us with counseling training are equipped to do good in this world. Doing nothing seems like a mistake to me.\nWhat type of nontextbook lessons have you seen your students learning?\nProbably what I\u2019ve enjoyed the most about this process is the surprising reactions I\u2019ve seen from students. Our program has an emphasis on multiculturalism and diversity, so the students are well-versed in textbook knowledge. However, the internship experience [at BHC] offered them a real quality experience working with a population that was culturally different from their own.\nI have had students come to me during their experience and sit in my office with tears in their eyes, and say things like \u201cI just didn\u2019t know\u201d and \u201cI love working with these people.\u201d I think it raised student awareness to some of the struggles Latino immigrants face, such as having to cope with the traumas they experienced before entering the U.S., the stress and anxiety of leaving loved ones behind, and trying to care for family with limited resources. They also expressed new levels of multicultural awareness and realized that there was much they had taken for granted, such as the ability to speak the same language as their clients.\nAt the end of the most recent semester, we had students describe their experiences, and most stated that what [they had] learned most form the program was \u201cworking with people who are culturally different from you,\u201d \u201cunderstanding that most Latinos are very different and come from different countries, even though they are all labeled as Latino\u201d and \u201clearning the challenges of working with translators and the importance of tuning into body language.\u201d Students also stated that this site [BHC] provided them with experiences that many of the other sites could not.\nWhat do you want counselors to know about this program and your experience with it?\nI would want my colleagues across the country to know one thing: This is worth doing. Latinos and other racial ethnic minorities are not receiving services at the same rates as the majority population. There is a need for helping professionals willing to reach out to our communities.\nThis kind of work might be complicated to set up and require more energy than you want to expend, but it\u2019s good work and it is worth doing. It\u2019s a great experience for the students and the community. It\u2019s not simple work; you will most likely make a lot of mistakes getting this kind of a program off the ground \u2013 I know we did \u2013 but it is so much better to dance and miss a few steps than to never dance at all.\nFrom NPR: \u201cStudents Fill a Gap in Mental Health Care for Immigrants\u201d\nFind out more about the Bethesda Health Center at caminocommunitycenter.org\nContact Daniel Gutierrez at DGutierrez@uncc.edu\nimmigration, Multiculturalism & Diversity, multidisciplinary, Students Audience\nThe relationship as client\nAmong the most common difficulties that bring couples to counseling are infidelity, financial problems, sex and intimacy issues, parenting challenges and ongoing tensions with the in-laws. Each of these problems has its own unique characteristics, but according to couples counselors, they tend to share a similar root cause \u2014 namely, lack of communication. The challenge for couples counselors (and their clients) is to identify how communication went awry \u2014 or if it ever truly existed in the first place \u2014 and then work to reestablish it.\nCouples counseling is fundamentally different from individual counseling, says Paul Peluso, past president of the International Association of Marriage and Family Counselors, a division of the American Counseling Association.\n\u201cToo often, counselors think that couples counseling is \u2018individual counseling times two,\u2019 and they conduct individual counseling with each person, while the other partner observes,\u201d Peluso says. \u201cThat really isn\u2019t couples counseling. Instead, with couples counseling, you have not just two perspectives in the room that you have to balance, but you have the \u2026 relationship that you are working with. In fact, it is the couple\u2019s relationship that technically is your client, not the individuals in the couple.\u201d\nHaving a relationship as the client instead of an individual makes it much more challenging to build a therapeutic alliance, says Barbara Mahaffey, a licensed professional clinical counselor and ACA member who practices in Chillicothe, Ohio. The relationship is not just an entity, but rather two separate people who have different thresholds for opening up and trusting, she explains. Couples also come in with different goals and expectations. Mahaffey, who specializes in counseling couples and families, says her task as a counselor is not just to address these goals and expectations, but to help the couple discover how they can reconcile their personal expectations and establish new goals that will allow them to move forward as partners.\n\u201cCouples will come in and want to fight over who is right and who is wrong in the relationship,\u201d Peluso says. \u201cIt is the couples therapist who has to sell the idea that no one is wholly \u2018right\u2019 or wholly \u2018wrong.\u2019 Paradoxically, neither is to blame and both are to blame \u2014 in the technical sense \u2014 for the state of the relationship at the same time. Both have played a role in setting up the conditions for the relationship. So the focus is on how each person\u2019s behavior and reactions to [the] other affect the couple\u2019s relationship. If each person wants to be in the relationship, then they have to take responsibility for how their behavior impacts the health of the relationship. And this is very different than individual counseling.\u201d\nConfronting infidelity\nUnfortunately, the catalyst that most often pushes couples into a counselor\u2019s office is also one of the most difficult issues to move past.\n\u201cThe single most common issue that brings couples into therapy is infidelity,\u201d says Peluso, a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who has written several books about both infidelity and couples counseling. \u201cOver the last 20 years, researchers have demonstrated that this is the most common presenting concern, and if it is not revealed initially, it is often disclosed in the course of couples therapy. Infidelity can take many forms, from sexual to nonphysical intimacy, and it now includes relationships online.\u201d\n\u201cIn terms of who cheats, researchers have found that women are just as likely as men to participate in infidelity,\u201d Peluso continues. \u201cAs a result, practitioners have to know how to deal with the complex and often devastating issues that accompany infidelity. Unfortunately, when couples counselors are asked about it, they overwhelmingly say that it is the topic they feel least prepared to treat.\u201d\nAmber Lange, a licensed professional counselor who owns and practices at Bedford Health, a group practice in Lambertville, Michigan, can attest to the high demand for infidelity counseling. Her practice has become known for specializing in issues surrounding infidelity and betrayal. Initially, the sheer need for counselors knowledgeable about and willing to tackle this particular relationship threat astounded her. \u201cI\u2019ll never be out of a job [as an infidelity specialist],\u201d she says ruefully.\nAmong couples for whom the act of infidelity is fresh, the nonoffending partner is typically experiencing acute stress and may even have symptoms that resemble posttraumatic stress disorder, Lange says. The offending partner, on the other hand, is typically feeling beaten down because he or she has repeatedly been asked blunt questions that shine a direct light on his or her indiscretions: What did you do? Where? How much money did you spend?\nIn cases in which the infidelity is years in the past, the core counseling issue more often involves a lingering lack of trust, Lange says. \u201cThe nonoffending partner [may have] forgiven the offending partner, but they have never rebuilt trust,\u201d she explains. \u201cSo the nonoffending partner is hypervigilant about trust and the [possibility of the] offending partner reoffending.\u201d\nIf the act of infidelity is recent, Lange helps the couple work through their \u201cwhy, who, where, how\u201d stage. \u201cI talk about the idea of how you can\u2019t \u2018unknow\u2019 something once you know it,\u201d says Lange, a professor of counseling at Capella University. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of knowledge that you can gain that may further traumatize you, such as the sexual positions that your partner was in with someone else.\u201d\nClients may also wonder if their partner did things with another person that the nonoffending partner refused to do. If this information is disclosed, Lange explains, it can lead the nonoffending partner to do things he or she is uncomfortable with in an attempt to please the offending partner.\nInstead of attempting to get answers to questions that can further damage the relationship, Lange encourages the nonoffending partner to ask structured questions such as: When did you start having sex? When did you stop? Did you have unprotected sex? These types of questions provide information that the nonoffending partner needs to know, Lange says.\nThe next phase of Lange\u2019s therapeutic approach involves narrative therapy. As part of this stage, Lange might ask couples who delayed getting therapy after the infidelity to briefly touch on information about the affair as a way to see if there are lingering questions. This process also helps Lange to assess the strength of the couple\u2019s bond.\nThe story of \u2018us\u2019\nRegardless of whether the couple is confronting a recent infidelity or the infidelity happened years in the past, constructing the story of their relationship represents the core of the healing process, according to Lange. Couples build the narrative to gain a clearer understanding of how and when the cracks in their relationship developed, she explains. They talk about the beginning of their relationship and explore how they interacted. Were they friends and true partners? What happened that started pulling them apart?\n\u201cLife\u201d \u2014 deaths, births, work, money and so on \u2014 is usually the answer to that second question, Lange says. In addition, people typically change over time, which further alters the nature of the relationship, she notes. All of these factors in combination can make a relationship vulnerable to disruption. Add in misperceptions and unmet expectations, and once tiny relationship fissures can turn into large cracks that cause couples to drift apart.\nAmong the most common life events that can start to pull some relationships apart is the birth of a child, Lange says. \u201cBefore the birth, couples were able to spend all their time and energy and money on each other. After the birth of a child, ideally, you love that child and invest all of that [time, energy and money] in parenting and child rearing \u2014 which is not bad, but [couples] come into my office, and they haven\u2019t been on a date in three years.\u201d\nIn addition to not making time for the romantic relationship, the couple may be trapped in patterns that are actively pulling them apart, Lange says. \u201cYou\u2019ve been great parents, but the mother is staying home or working and raising kids at the same time, the father is working and overworking to pay for the mortgage and save for retirement \u2014 those kinds of things can hurt a relationship,\u201d she says.\nWhen a couple stops talking to each other, it creates a gap, and it is tempting to fill that gap with other people or activities, Lange notes. Partners may begin to betray each other in different ways, whether it is spending time on social media instead of with each other, watching pornography or working long hours, she says. \u201cIn the process, we\u2019ve let the relationship go awry,\u201d Lange observes.\nBut this risk of unraveling is not exclusive to couples with children. Those who get married or enter into domestic partnerships too quickly upon meeting or when they are very young are also particularly vulnerable, Lange says. For example, those who form romantic relationships in their teens or early 20s are in the midst of experiencing significant personal development. This may not happen at the same rate for both partners, eventually leaving them feeling as if they don\u2019t know each other, Lange explains. Likewise, people who get married or form a domestic partnership in the matter of a few weeks have not typically had enough time to establish a strong base of friendship. Over time, it\u2019s not uncommon for them to realize that they don\u2019t even like each other, Lange says.\nLange asks clients not to make a decision about whether to stay together until after they have gone through the process of identifying what went wrong. Then, if they choose to stay together, Lange helps them start to discuss how to protect the relationship going forward. This typically includes setting aside time to talk with each other more frequently, being intentional about making time for dates and even going on vacations without the kids. But it also involves each partner identifying the behaviors in which he or she engages that play a role in pulling the relationship apart.\nFor example, Lange recounts something that a client recently shared. \u201cOne of the things that I have recognized about myself over the past six months is that I tend to withdraw,\u201d the client told her. \u201cWhen my partner and I got into an argument, I went away, slept in the kids\u2019 room and wouldn\u2019t talk. I would work 85 hours a week. Even when I wasn\u2019t in the office, I was checking my email.\u201d\nIn essence, Lange says, the client just wasn\u2019t \u201cthere\u201d in the relationship. Other people do the same thing by burying themselves in hobbies such as sports or scrapbooking. As a result, they end up spending more time with friends or with hobbies than they do with their partner and family, Lange says.\nThe process of building the couple\u2019s story in counseling and finding the cracks and vulnerabilities is a long one. For the first four to six weeks, when a couple is still going through the initial trauma phase of the infidelity, Lange has them come to counseling every week. Once a couple moves on to the storytelling stage, she has them come to counseling only about once per month, in part because she feels that much of the processing and healing needs to take place between sessions as the couple slowly rebuilds the relationship.\n\u201cThey have to have time to figure out things \u2026 how to be in relationship, how to recreate their friendship and how to build [new] good memories,\u201d Lange says. During the process of rebuilding the relationship, trust is also being reestablished and forgiveness is being granted. Then the couple can move forward, she explains.\nIdeally, the couple will also identify potential problem areas and reach compromises on how to address those issues. For example: \u201cYou say I can\u2019t work 90 hours a week, but we need money, so how are we going to figure that out? \u2026 This is [our] story. Here\u2019s the way we go forward. Here\u2019s what we need to do.\u201d\nSymptom vs. problem\nBrian Canfield, a past president of ACA, also says that infidelity is the event that most commonly brings couples into his office. But he believes infidelity is always indicative of other underlying problems in the marriage or relationship.\n\u201cI view an affair not as the problem but as a symptom,\u201d he says. \u201cAn affair is like malarial fever. It\u2019s uncomfortable, but it\u2019s not the fever itself that\u2019s going to kill you \u2014 it\u2019s the disease.\u201d\nCanfield believes that if a counselor addresses the underlying issue first, it will help to stabilize the couple, which will then allow them to deal with the ramifications of the infidelity. \u201cYou [the counselor] have to assess if there is a commitment and desire to save the relationship,\u201d says Canfield, an LMFT whose practice has offices in Louisiana, Arkansas and Florida. \u201cTrust and betrayal, that\u2019s not where you put the spotlight. The trust will return once you stabilize the relationship.\u201d\nCanfield starts by asking the couple what they want out of the counseling process and their relationship as a whole. \u201cWhat would you like to see happen? If it is possible to salvage the marriage, would you be willing?\u201d Canfield asks. \u201cA lot of people want to know why [the affair happened], but here is where we are. Where do you want to be? If you were going to redesign marriage, how would it look?\u201d\nCanfield says financial difficulties are the most common underlying issue that couples bring into his office. In his experience, there is so much shame surrounding finances that most couples would rather talk about the details of their sex lives than money. He frequently encounters situations with couples in which one partner has been maintaining a hidden bank account or run up the balance on their credit cards without the other partner knowing. He tells couples that part of the counseling process involves full disclosure.\n\u201cA lot of couples are in tremendous denial,\u201d Canfield says. \u201cThey don\u2019t know how much debt they are in, what their bills are or have a good picture of how much income they are bringing in.\u201d\nSometimes people feel entitled or convince themselves that it\u2019s OK to buy what they want regardless of how it affects their spouse or partner. They tell themselves that they work hard and that they deserve it. Canfield sees part of his role as helping to bring clarity to these situations to encourage better choices.\n\u201cThe other spouse may say that if this doesn\u2019t change, I will exit the marriage for my own survival. Which circumstances are more important? Keeping the marriage or continuing to spend?\u201d he asks.\nCanfield doesn\u2019t try to play the part of financial adviser to couples (although he does recommend that couples seek professional financial advice elsewhere if needed). Instead, he helps couples recognize their need to possess a clear picture of their financial situation and to develop a reasonable budget.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a matter of priorities and trade-offs,\u201d he says. \u201cThe key as a couples counselor is to have the couple work together as a team. Most couples, when they work as a team, can find common ground.\u201d\nCanfield emphasizes that as a couples counselor, it\u2019s not up to him to dictate how much a couple will spend on their priorities. Instead, his focus is simply on making sure that they have agreed on a plan going forward.\nOnce the underlying issues have been addressed, Canfield helps the couple deal with what he calls the \u201cmoral disparity\u201d in a relationship in which infidelity has occurred. The nonoffending partner may feel like he or she has the higher moral ground, but to move forward, the couple must try to reach a \u201cmutual amnesty,\u201d Canfield says.\nThis involves a delicate balance. Canfield tries to make the couple aware that the infidelity occurred because of the underlying problems \u2014 to which they both contributed \u2014 that were straining the relationship. However, he always makes it clear that it is not the fault of the nonoffending partner that the other partner cheated. Yes, they both contributed to the relationship\u2019s problems, but the offending partner chose to act out by having an affair.\nMatters of miscommunication\nMahaffey, an associate professor of human services technology at Ohio University\u2013Chillicothe, finds that relationship difficulties usually involve a significant degree of miscommunication, which is exacerbated by a number of factors. She helps couples understand how communication can get mixed up by explaining the pieces of a \u201cmiscommunication model\u201d that she has devised.\nMahaffey starts by asking both partners to list all of the traits they possess that are different from their partner\u2019s traits. She then takes these lists and draws two people facing each other. This represents two people talking, whereas the lists represent their different \u2014 and sometimes conflicting \u2014 points of view. Mahaffey often also draws a \u201cfamily rule book\u201d between the two figures. This represents how a person\u2019s family of origin can affect the way he or she interprets interactions with a partner. Mahaffey often asks couples about their family backgrounds and experiences to illustrate the influence of the family of origin.\nMahaffey will then ask both partners to think about all the times they asked for something and didn\u2019t receive what they wanted from their partner. As they voice these details, it\u2019s not unusual for one partner to exclaim, \u201cYou never said that!\u201d Typically, the case is not that either partner is lying, Mahaffey says. Rather, it\u2019s that one of the partners has not been phrasing the requests in a way that effectively communicates what he or she needs, Mahaffey explains. She also informs the couple that humans think at about 500 words per minute but cannot speak more than 125 words per minute, meaning there is ample opportunity for the intended message to get lost.\nOther complicating factors in communication include different coping styles (such as one member of the couple shutting down verbally or retreating physically or emotionally during times of stress), the fact that women often process information differently than men and the daily anxieties of life, Mahaffey says. For example, it\u2019s hard for a couple to communicate effectively when one or both partners are stressed about finances, work or the car breaking down.\nThe last part of Mahaffey\u2019s model entails explaining how words themselves \u2014 or how people define them \u2014 can get in the way. For example, Mahaffey might ask a couple, \u201cWhat\u2019s the definition of love? Is it that supper is on the table when I come home? Or liking to snuggle? Or texting 60 times a day?\u201d\nAt this point, Mahaffey has the couple use \u201cI\u201d statements and talk about what needs they feel are being unmet. One partner might say, \u201cI like to have help with housework.\u201d The other partner might note that the request usually comes during a football game or while engaged in something else that he or she enjoys doing. At this point, Mahaffey might ask if the partner would be willing to provide help either before or after the game. This exercise highlights just one example of an area of possible compromise. The larger point is that the couple needs to sit down and talk about what they need from each other and how those needs can be met, Mahaffey says.\nAll counselors, but couples counselors in particular, should be looking for signs of intimate partner violence (IPV) among their clients, asserts Ryan Carlson, an ACA member and couples counselor who has done research on screening methods for IPV.\nBecause IPV is such a prevalent societal problem, all counselors \u2014 knowingly or unknowingly \u2014 will encounter clients who have experienced or are currently experiencing violence at the hands of their partners, Carlson says. According to data gathered in 2011 and published in 2014 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 1 in 4 women and more than 1 in 10 men in the United States have in their lifetime experienced sexual violence, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner.\nProviding counseling in the presence of such interpersonal violence can be dangerous, not just to the victim but also to the counselor, says Carlson, a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Columbia, South Carolina. That is a primary reason it is important for counselors to be alert to the signs of IPV and to have a protocol to follow should a client be a victim.\nPerhaps the most beneficial thing counselors can do is to get connected to the people Carlson calls the \u201creal experts\u201d on this issue \u2014 those who work at local domestic violence shelters. \u201cMost of what I have learned [about IPV] has come from domestic violence advocates,\u201d he acknowledges.\nNot only can these advocates help counselors assess whether it is safe to work with a couple in which IPV is a reality, but they also stand ready to assist clients who are looking for help, says Carlson, an assistant professor of counselor education at the University of South Carolina.\nCarlson says he uses the term IPV because it is more inclusive than domestic violence. There is an IPV continuum, and domestic violence is on the extreme end of the spectrum, representing the most severe cases that involve, as Carlson puts it, \u201cpower and control,\u201d as opposed to nonlethal violence or verbal abuse. From Carlson\u2019s perspective, it is not safe to try to conduct counseling in those cases involving power and control.\nCarlson advises counselors to use a formal screening tool for IPV at intake but says there are other red flags to look for, including a client\u2019s unwillingness to take responsibility for actions. \u201cControl over finances or transportation is [also a] red flag,\u201d he continues. \u201cIs one partner restricting access to cell phones, finances, the car, who the other partner can interact with? \u2026 Look for body language. Does one partner consistently look to the other when they answer questions? Is it permission seeking? Is there inconsistency in their answers? For example, as part of a meeting to determine whether or not a couple would want to participate in a research study I was doing, I asked about income. The husband gave me an answer, but when I met with the wife separately, she said the husband wasn\u2019t really working and that she wasn\u2019t allowed to talk about that.\u201d\nThis one disparity turned out to be an indication of severe domestic violence. Carlson followed his protocol and was able to get help for the victim.\nWhat does a protocol look like? Carlson says he has a formal memorandum of understanding with the local domestic violence shelter saying he can call at certain hours when he has a need for consultation. The memorandum also states that he will not provide identifying information about the client, only basic relevant information. This includes the presenting problem and any context he feels is important. The consultant can then advise him on whether the couple\u2019s case might be a power-and-control situation. In those instances, Carlson must find a way to offer help to the victim without tipping off the partner who is engaging in the abuse.\nWith all of the couples Carlson counsels, his regular practice is to meet briefly with each individual separately at the beginning of each session. This is primarily so that he can get each partner\u2019s point of view independently on the difficulties the couple is experiencing, but it also provides him with a chance to provide contact information for the domestic violence shelter if circumstances warrant. Carlson and the partner who is the target of the abuse may even call the shelter together.\nIn some cases, however, the victim of the abuse is not ready to leave the relationship. Carlson say many counselors may have a hard time relating to that. \u201cWe think we need to get the person out of the relationship immediately, but [we] need to do it safely,\u201d he cautions\nThe victim has typically been living under abusive circumstances for years and may not yet have reached a crisis point, Carlson explains. Again, he uses consultation with his domestic violence resources to help him navigate this terrain. Regardless of whether the victim is ready to leave, Carlson says the average counselor should not try to continue providing services in these power-and-control cases. Telling the couple that he feels this particular modality will not work for them has proved to be a successful way of terminating treatment without escalating the problem of abuse, he says.\nLynn Linde, senior director of the ACA Center for Counseling Practice, Policy and Research, adds the caveat that counselors should make sure their states do not require them to report suspected cases of IPV under mandated reporting laws.\nThere are IPV cases for which Carlson thinks couples counselors are qualified to help. These involve lower lethality or \u201csituational couple violence\u201d (as opposed to one partner begin generally aggressive outside of the relationship as well). In such instances, a couple\u2019s arguments may get out of hand and they may engage in behaviors such as pushing or throwing things at each other. \u201cThis can be dangerous, but it\u2019s not as dangerous as choking or using a weapon,\u201d Carlson says. However, he says, it is important for the couple to acknowledge that this behavior is unhealthy and to show a willingness to learn more appropriate ways to interact. It\u2019s also essential that neither partner is afraid of the other, Carlson stresses.\nIn contrast, partners who engage in power-and-control tactics usually show little or no remorse and may exhibit antisocial-type behavior, Carlson explains. In fact, he says, studies have shown that when engaging in the abuse, these types of offenders typically experience a drop in heart rate rather than an escalating heart rate that is typically associated with anxiety over one\u2019s situation or actions. Carlson also notes that whereas research indicates that men are almost always the perpetrators of power-and-control types of IPV, situational IPV is gender neutral.\nNone of this information constitutes a foolproof method for deciding whether it is safe for a counselor to work with a couple with a history of IPV. That\u2019s why Carlson continues to do research on screening methods that are better at identifying the presence of violence among couples and where on the spectrum of severity that violence falls.\n\u201cGetting it wrong can be very dangerous,\u201d Carlson concludes.\nCounseling LGBTQ couples\nAlthough the issues that bring lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer/questioning (LGBTQ) couples into counseling are generally the same as those that affect heterosexual couples, the legalization of same-sex marriage has raised some issues unique to LGBTQ relationships, say counselors who work with this population.\n\u201cThere is a tremendous validation both from the legal system and from society upon their relationships,\u201d says John T. Super, an LMFT who is also a clinical assistant professor of counselor education at the University of Florida. \u201cThis validation can provide an emotional confidence or boost surrounding a same-sex relationship that lessens the perceived stigmatization that has occurred. Additionally, since the Supreme Court decision [legalizing same-sex marriage], we have seen a large number of those in long-term relationships choosing to marry and report feeling equality to traditional marriages.\u201d\nAlthough the Supreme Court\u2019s decision is a huge advancement for the LGBTQ community and has given many couples the opportunity for which they have long waited, actually getting married has not been absent of negative consequences for some couples, says Super, a member of ACA. \u201cClients have explained [that] when they announced their marriage \u2026 it was in many ways similar to the coming-out process in that those who are choosing to marry and are in same-sex relationships may face resistance from friends and family as they legalize the relationship,\u201d he explains. \u201cI have heard clients say that their friends and family accepted their relationship, but when they choose to marry, the thought of the same-sex couple entering into a legal marriage is a line the friends or family are not comfortable crossing.\u201d\nCounselors have an important role in helping same-sex couples navigate the resistance they may face when they decide to get married, agrees Joy Whitman, a past president of the Association for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues in Counseling, a division of ACA. Amidst the joy of getting married, there may be feelings of hurt and loss from being rejected all over again by certain individuals or segments of society, she says. Counselors can help couples grieve and process this loss.\nAccording to Whitman, who previously worked as a couples counselor, marriage can also exacerbate a common problem in same-sex relationships: unequal comfort levels with being \u201cout.\u201d Marriage can make the partner who is less \u201cout\u201d feel especially vulnerable, she explains.\nCounselors should also be aware that for the first time, LGBTQ couples are facing divorce, Whitman says. Not only is this a new experience, but the need in many cases to stand up in court and disclose intimate relationship details can be particularly disconcerting for clients in same-sex relationships, she says.\nSuper and Whitman also note that counselors need to be aware of the generation gap among different LGBTQ couples. \u201cCouples who are in their 20s experienced a very different level of social acceptance than couples in their 50s or older,\u201d Super points out. \u201cThis generational difference can be important to understand when determining the levels of internalized oppression the individual or couple has experienced.\u201d\nDespite these issues and other issues that are specific to the LGBTQ community, Super and Whitman emphasize that couples counseling is couples counseling. Peluso, an associate professor of counselor education at Florida Atlantic University, agrees.\n\u201cIn many respects, the practice of couples counseling shouldn\u2019t change that much,\u201d he says. \u201cFocusing on the relationship means taking the relationship as it is created by the partners involved. The only judgment that the couples counselor is making is, \u2018Is this healthy for you right now?\u2019 and then seeing how the couple can change that. That is fairly universal.\u201d\nTo learn more about the topics addressed in this article, see the following select resources offered by the American Counseling Association.\nStepping In, Stepping Out: Creating Stepfamily Rhythm by Joshua M.

Roland\nI\u2019d like to share some thoughts on how counselors, counselor educators and counseling students can plan and act in a strategic manner to accomplish many goals. I see the process of planning as strategic because it leads to the future along a path of accomplishment that is based on a combination of need, desire, logic and commitment.\nAs I write this, difficult challenges continue to occur \u2014 challenges that have affected all members of our society and the counseling profession. Some of these challenges have involved natural disasters, such as the tragic flooding in West Virginia and Louisiana. Other challenges are the result of killings and shootings in various parts of our nation and the world, including in Dallas and in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.\nIt is important to note that all of the examples I mentioned occurred over a brief period this past summer. That short time span can create a kind of pile-on effect for people. There are only so many negative or horrific events that individuals can accept without their levels of self-confidence, trust and happiness being affected.\nThat is where we find ourselves as counselors: working with K-12 students, college students, graduate students, children, adults, older adults and other diverse populations across the life span. We must also remember to practice self-care as counselors. We often get double and triple doses of sadness and horror as we learn about an incident ourselves and then reexperience it multiple times through our clients and students.\nIt may be worth exploring the strategic planning process as a way to begin establishing and accomplishing goals for yourself and for your clients and students, especially around issues that are sad or distasteful or that cause negative feelings. We sometimes think of strategic planning as an exercise conducted in university or organizational meetings. However, we can also use these skills to make plans concerning how we, as counselors, can help in the most effective way possible in whatever specific area we are involved.\nIf we create a treatment plan in a clinical setting for a client whose brother was shot, design a post-divorce family group for middle school students who had to relocate to a different city because of flooding, or plan the agenda for a semesterlong safe-sex/risk behavior series on a college campus in a state where the incidence of HIV/AIDS is alarming, we are being strategic. Each of these examples would have lasting effects, could be continued with broader objectives and would have measurable outcomes that would expand through the three- to five-year scope of the planning.\nIf those exercises featured a continuum of activities each year, short- and long-term goals, and a set of outcomes to be accomplished over the course of the three- to five-year scope, I wonder if the overall plan would be more influential. A more developmental view of planning might ensure that the plan and the activities surrounding it would evolve.\nFor situations similar to the examples here, time is relative. For instance, take the college student who just learned that two of his best friends have been diagnosed with HIV. In many ways, those diagnoses may run his life. But working with him on a set of strategies that he can accomplish and feel good about may be exactly what allows him to come out of a scared level of depression, maintain his friendships and excel in school. Farther-reaching strategies that use logical planning tools for clients and students may offer the most effective results because the clients and students will feel more in charge. And after all, clients are in charge of their behavior, perceptions and attitudes.\nAs you work this fall to serve your clients or students, I invite you to email me regarding any planning projects you have designed that entail the kind of strategic thinking discussed in this column. Hearing from you will allow for greater connection and sharing. We need to offer our colleagues all kinds of examples of success so that we can continue to provide counseling that is effective and state of the art.\nFall is typically a prime time for conferences sponsored by American Counseling Association regions, divisions and branches. Perhaps you have already attended one or more yourself. These gatherings provide opportunities to reflect, connect and make the most out of a specific period of time by learning from the best and offering our best in return. Gatherings of colleagues are opportunities. The sage collective advice of colleagues can lead counselors to create multifaceted plans and enjoy feelings of accomplishment and wonder as these plans begin to evolve and play out strategically.\nI have adopted a phrase from a physical therapist I know: \u201cMotion is lotion.\u201d My interpretation is that lotion facilitates action, allowing for deeper movement and flexibility toward accomplishment. Let me know if you decide to put these words into practice to become a more empathic and strategic counselor. I\u2019d love to hear about it.",

        "title": "Addressing the Issue: How to Deliver on Physical Addresses for the Poor",
        "raw_content": "Did you know that 4 billion people the world over make do every day without a physical address? Consider the last time you opened a bank account or applied for a loan\u2014you were probably asked for a home address to verify your identity. Imagine calling an ambulance in an emergency situation and trying to explain where you were if your street had no name and your home had no number. How would you register to vote? How would you get supplies to and from your office?\nFor the individual, not having a physical address can be tantamount to not having a registered identity, making seemingly basic and often essential tasks difficult. Participating in political processes, accessing finance, and conducting business that involves delivery of official documents can all be excruciatingly time-consuming endeavors in areas where people live off the radar. The same is true for enterprises whose efficiency and reach is limited by reliance upon ad-hoc local networks to physically link goods and services.\nLarge sums of money have been invested in developing addressing systems in areas around the world lacking them. These traditional approaches such as the several attempts in Ghana to map and name city streets require significant time and funding, relying heavily upon local governments with limited capacity. As a result, those without addresses continue to rely upon informal, patchy solutions to the delivery of goods and services, and small businesses bear the burden of creating their own logistics infrastructure instead of relying on third-party services. Inferior addressing systems don\u2019t only affect poor populations and vulnerable small businesses: Even in well-addressed countries, new, more flexible ways of sharing location information are being explored, such as the Natural Area Coding System developed by NAC Geographic Products Inc. The greatest potential for social impact, however, is in those places without an address infrastructure already in place.\nEnter GPS Technology\nThe proliferation of mobile technology has already made it easier to connect with informal communities largely under the radar. Connecting these communities with public and private services empowers them to improve livelihoods, and GPS-based innovations may have the potential to offer them a work-around for areas lacking public infrastructure. Some startups have taken up the issue of physical addressing with GPS specifically for this purpose:\nOkHi: Changing the Game\nIn 2014, OkHi was voted the best startup in the booming Kenyan startup scene at the Seedstars world competition. The Nairobi-based startup has received funding from notable Silicon Valley investors to deliver on its mission to empower Kenyan residents with a working address simply and effectively. The app uses geo-tagged photographs of the user\u2019s front door/gate to allow the user to share his or her location via WhatsApp, SMS, or email.\nAn OkHi address consists of a location on Google Maps and a photo of the front of the address to allow the user to know that he or she is at the right door.\nOkHi\u2019s founder and CEO Timbo Drayson says the startup has initially worked with e-commerce companies and has helped them cut delivery times by 50 percent. Drayson sees the technology as offering a simple and effective way to physically connect people without addresses to improve the delivery of public and private services, as well as to provide people with another form of identity proof, helping them qualify for services.\nThe startup has gained local visibility, but its ambition is much broader. Drayson hopes that this simple approach will eventually be adopted globally by users around the world looking to connect with each other.\nWhile OkHi enables users to share their individual locations with targeted users, UK-based What3Words is working on allowing people to locate each other without actively having to tag their location. Instead, What3Words\u2019 approach automatically assigns every location an address, essentially taking over the mapping and addressing responsibility usually handled by local municipalities. How is this done? It\u2019s simple.\nThe company has sliced the world into 3x3-meter square grids, and assigned each grid square a unique combination of three words to avoid using GPS coordinates to describe a location. A user can find the unique three-word combination associated with his or her specific location.\nThe location of my desk at DAI\u2019s Bethesda offices is represented by the words \"power.wishes.eating\"\nIn Rio de Janeiro, a local company Grupo Cartero Amigo set up a postal system in the country\u2019s largest favela not served by the Brazilian national postal system. The case is a model for how such a system might be used by actors the world over.\nWhether it is used for applications that require active user geo-tagging or for those that don\u2019t, mobile GPS technology clearly represents a possible game changer for individuals, businesses, and even public institutions operating in the world\u2019s vast unaddressed areas. How quickly and successfully such usage scales remains to be seen.",

(Justin Sullivan / Getty Images)\nThe USDA is recalling another 5.1 million pounds of raw beef products, expanding a previous recall to more than 12 million pounds.\nThe recalled beef, produced and packaged by JBS Tolleson Inc. between July 26 and Sept. 7, has been linked to an outbreak of salmonella that has been diagnosed in 246 people in 25 states as of Nov. 15.\nFifty-nine people have been hospitalized as a result but no deaths have been reported.\nThe Food Safety and Inspection Service \u201cis continuing to investigate illnesses associated with this widespread outbreak, and additional product from other companies may also be recalled,\u201d the USDA said.\nAccording to the Center for Disease Control, children younger than 5, adults older than 65 and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to suffer severe consequences.\nSymptoms include diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps between 12 and 72 hours after consuming the contaminated beef.\nThe USDA warned any consumers to throw out the recalled beef or return it to the store.\nIn non-contaminated beef, the CDC advises cooking ground beef to 160\u00b0F internal temperature and washing hands and anything that came into contact with raw meat with soap and water.",

        "raw_content": "Benchmarks finished in the red following lower-than-expected manufacturing data from China and Europe\u2019s disappointing economic data. Concerns over global growth prospects weighed on Fed rate hike possibilities and drove financials stocks downward. Moreover, oil prices fell following worries over global crude supply gut, which weighed on energy and materials stocks. All the three key U.S. indexes ended at their lowest level in the last three weeks.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) decreased 0.8%, or 140.25 points, to close at 17,750.91. The S&P 500 fell 0.9% to close at 2,063.37. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 4,763.22, 1.1%. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) increased 6.3% to settle at 15.6.

Also, the commission estimated that the EU will grow at a 1.8% rate in 2016, lower than the 2% forecasted in 2015. In 2017, economic output of EU is expected to expand at a rate of 1.9% as compared to the earlier projection of 2% rise.\nWeaker-than-expected manufacturing data of China and Eurozone\u2019s dismal economic outlook raised global growth worries and weighed on Fed rate hike chances, which in turn resulted in a sell-off in financial stocks. The Financials Services Select Sector SPDR (XLFS) lost 2.5%, and was the biggest decliner among the S&P 500 sectors. Dow components JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS) fell 1.9% and 1.8%, respectively. Top holdings from the sector such as, Bank of America Corporation (BAC), Citigroup Inc. (C), Wells Fargo & Company ( WFC), Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B) and U.S. Bancorp (USB) decreased 2.8%, 2.4%, 1.2%, 1.4% and 1.1%, respectively.\nAdditionally, oil prices declined following China\u2019s growth worries, concerns over global crude supply glut and stronger dollar. Iraq reported that crude supply from southern fields increased from 3.286 million barrels per day (bpd) in March to 3.364 million bpd in April. Moreover, crude production from OPEC members like Saudi Arabia and Iran also increased. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index was up 0.3% rising for the first time since April 22. The WTI crude and Brent crude fell 2.6% and 2.9% to $43.65 per barrel and $46.75 a barrel, respectively.\nDue to continuous fall in oil prices, the Energy Select Sector SPDR (XLE) decreased 2.4% and was the second biggest loser among the major S&P 500 sectors. Chesapeake Energy Corporation (CHK) fell 12% and was biggest drag among the S&P 500 companies. Other key components including, Schlumberger Ltd (SLB), EOG Resources ( EOG), Pioneer Natural Resources Co. (PXD) and ConocoPhillips (COP) decreased 2.7%, 2.6%, 3.9% and 3.8%, respectively. While, Dow components Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM), and Chevron Corp (CVX) declined 1.1% and 1.9%, respectively.\nAlso, the Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLB) fell 1.7%. Freeport-McMoRan Inc.

I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DD) and Dow Chemical Company (DOW), decreased 1.9%, 5.6%, 1.6%, 1.9% and 1.7%, respectively.\nIn economic news, Autodata reported that domestic vehicle sales in April came in at 13.8 million, which was more than the consensus estimate of 13.5 million and March\u2019s reading of 13.3 million. Further, total vehicle sales increased by 4.8% in April to 17.4 million, more than the consensus estimate of 17.3 million.\nIn earnings news, Pfizer Inc\u2019s (PFE) shares rose 2.7% after first quarter earnings of 67 cents per share beat Zacks Consensus Estimate of 55 cents. Revenues of $13 billion also came in higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $11.9 billion. Pfizer now expects to earn $2.38 \u2013 $2.48 per share on revenues of $51 billion \u2013 $53 billion. The company had previously guided towards earnings of $2.20 \u2013 $2.30 per share on revenues of $49 billion \u2013 $51 billion in 2016.\nPFIZER INC (PFE): Free Stock Analysis Report\nJPMORGAN CHASE (JPM): Free Stock Analysis Report\nGOLDMAN SACHS (GS): Free Stock Analysis Report\nBANK OF AMER CP (BAC): Free Stock Analysis Report\nCITIGROUP INC (C): Free Stock Analysis Report\nWELLS FARGO-NEW (WFC): Free Stock Analysis Report\nBERKSHIRE HTH-B (BRK.B): Free Stock Analysis Report\nUS BANCORP (USB): Free Stock Analysis Report\nSCHLUMBERGER LT (SLB): Free Stock Analysis Report\nEOG RES INC (EOG): Free Stock Analysis Report\nPIONEER NAT RES (PXD): Free Stock Analysis Report\nFREEPT MC COP-B (FCX): Free Stock Analysis Report",

The win allowed the Titans to finish nonconference play with a record of 5-3-1.\nThe match was midfielder Irving Arvizu\u2019s third time starting for the Titans after he nearly redshirted the season. Instead, Arvizu\u2019s unexpected start on defense against Vermont a week ago earned him extra playing time.\n\u201cIt was definitely motivating for me just to be on the pitch that day,\u201d Arvizu said. \u201cI just had to give it my best. It wasn\u2019t my normal position, so it was something new for me.\u201d\nArvizu wasn\u2019t the only member of the Titans to step up. CSUF defender Corentin Ohlmann made his return to the field in the win, starting for the Titans after a two-game absence, and he credits the team\u2019s success over their last three games to their ability to adapt to adversity.\n\u201cWe have freshmen stepping in and running the back, and we\u2019re just all doing our job,\u201d Ohlmann said.\nThe Titans took charge offensively in the first half of the match, firing five shots at UNLV goalie Enrique Adame.\nThe activity paid off when Ross McPhie scored his fourth goal of the season by taking advantage of the rebound off a free kick from Mark Hernandez in the 31st minute.\n\u201cIt takes a team effort to get in the back of the net. I\u2019m just the one there,\u201d McPhie said. \u201cI always try to be an option. If you\u2019re always an option, then you\u2019ll always get chances.\u201d\nThe Titans were able to score in the first half of the game for the second time this season, the first being in their match against the University of San Diego.\n\u201cIt was taking us a while,\u201d McPhie said. \u201cWe were having too many chances but we weren\u2019t putting them away.\u201d\nAs the teams switched sides for the second half, both offenses were quiet as the Titans remained in the lead.\nThe referee kept his cards in his pocket up until the 67th minute when UNLV\u2019s Oscar Velasquez was awarded the first yellow card of the match, with Bass Sarr quickly following in the 72nd minute to earn the second yellow of the game.\nIn spite of the physicality, CSUF held on for the win, defending six shots from UNLV in the second half.\nThe Titans will leave nonconference play in the rearview mirror as they begin their conference schedule at UC Santa Barbara and Cal Poly Thursday and Saturday, respectively, with a stronger record than they held at the same point last season.\nTitans Head Coach George Kuntz is satisfied with the way his team is entering Big West play.\n\u201cOne of our goals was not to get .500. We wanted a winning record going into league,\u201d Kuntz said. \u201cKnowing where we came from, where we started, we had a couple speed bumps, but we\u2019ve come a long way.\u201d\nTopics: Cal State Fullerton CSUF men's soccer soccer UNLV\nPrevious Post ASI releases fact sheet to inform students about DACA\nNext Post CSUF women\u2019s soccer dominates USD in 3-0 win",

During the meeting, the Executive Board received updates from each of these reform groups and discussed the plans for the months ahead.\nIBU President Olle Dahlin said:\n\u201cWe were greatly encouraged by the updates we received and the progress that has been made in reforming the IBU. We know there is a long way to go but we are on the right track. We are looking forward to receiving the recommendations of the ongoing reviews so that we can implement reforms that will benefit our athletes, our fans and all our stakeholders and put the IBU in a stronger position than ever before.\u201d\nDuring the meeting, the External Review Commission (ERC), which is conducting a full investigation into all historic anti-doping, compliance, ethical and disciplinary matters, provided an update report on the progress that has been made since the last Board meeting. The Commission has taken a number of steps to advance its work including: reviewing the applicable rules and legislation to determine where violations have occurred; continuing to engage with the criminal authorities; cooperating with WADA; opening communications with RUSADA; gathering further written evidence; and obtaining copies and reviewing relevant reports and video footage. The latest ERC interim report can be found here.\nAn update on the status of the development of the IBU\u2019s first ever Strategic Plan which will incorporate input from all IBU stakeholders and help guide the sport\u2019s future was also presented. Focus Group meetings with Athletes, Coaches, National Federations, Committee Members, Staff Members, Technical Delegates, Organising Committees and External Partners were held earlier this month to provide them with a forum to voice the opportunities and challenges they face. A large number of athletes were involved in both the Focus Group meetings and questionnaires, which were sent to stakeholders by the IBU in December 2018, and the Strategic Plan is now being developed.\nReports on the Constitutional review and review of the IBU Rules were also received by the Executive Board. The purpose of these reviews is to ensure that the Constitution and IBU Rules are aligned with international best practice. The Executive Board agreed the schedule and process for the reviews so that they will be ready to be considered for approval by the Extraordinary IBU Congress in September 2019.\nThe Chair of the Independent IBU Anti-Doping Working Group made a presentation and updated on the 13 cases at the Anti-Doping Hearing Panel. The Chair expressed his satisfaction about WADA\u2019s retrieval of the LIMS data from the Moscow Laboratory and stated his hope that the data will be received quickly by the IBU once the authentication process has been completed.\nThe RBU Working Group also provided an update, confirming that the RBU have accepted the IBU\u2019s criteria and that fruitful dialogue between both sides will continue. The next meeting of the IBU/RBU Working Group is scheduled to be held at the end of February 2019 in Moscow.\nThe next Executive Board meeting will be held in \u00d6stersund, Sweden, on 11 March 2019 during the IBU World Championships Biathlon.",

The gritty South Texas-set thriller premiered at TIFF before winning the Audience Award at AFI Fest and stars up-and-comers Jeremy Allen White (Shameless), Mackenzie Davis (That Awkward Moment, AMC\u2019s Halt And Catch Fire), and Logan Huffman (V) as teenage pals in a dead-end town who are forced to pull off a heist by a brutal cotton farmer (Lost\u2018s Mark Pellegrino).

        "raw_content": "His Take: \u201cI\u2019m 22 and Older Guys Don\u2019t Take Me Seriously\u201d\nBy: Dear Wendy January 14, 2015 Columns, His Take 42 comments\nI am a 22-year-old female. My parents had very demanding expectations of me, and as a result I finished high school at 16 and college at 20. I have been a professional for three years now.\nI am not particularly interested in guys my age because marriage is the last thing on their minds. Many are in school and will be for the next few years, and many live at home or with roommates. We aren\u2019t a good match because we are just in different phases of our lives.\nOver the past year, I have asked a few guys out ages 28-31. The first few dates went very smoothly until they asked my age. Each date said \u201c22? I thought you were 25-26!,\u201d then never called me again. I don\u2019t think a 6-9 year age difference is a big deal. It\u2019s not like my dates were old enough to be my father. But they all got hung up on my age and I can\u2019t figure it out.\nIn a guy\u2019s mind, how big of an age difference is too big? Am I doomed to be single until I turn 25-26 because no one will accept me at age 22? \u2014 Old Soul\nBrian: When I was an extremely attractive 22-year-old, having already landed a hotshot job working for the coolest writer in America and his editor, I thought: \u201cNobody my age can handle my unmatchable coolness and bank account approaching four figures. Perhaps I should try the older ladies. They\u2019re more likely to appreciate my worldview and the excellence-by-association that is working for a guy whose books line their shelves.\u201d (This is obviously back in the day when people owned bookshelves that were being used for something other than plants and dusty framed photos).\nThe problem with shutting yourself off from the immature 22-year-olds around you is that you are an immature 22-year-old. There is no such thing as a 22-year-old who is ready for marriage and that includes you and Brian Fairbanks at age 22, who definitely thought dating older women would allow him to simply fast-forward (yes, these were the VCR days too) through those ugly, drunken, hookup-filled, waste-of-space early 20s and cut to settling down. But I never got married and I wasted quite a few years with older women whose issues I overlooked because they were older, wiser, and hot. What they were not? The one thing I needed: someone whom I could grow older with because they had already been there in a lot of ways and patted me on the head like a child.\nIt sucks to be 22 and want to get married and to know that most guys are enjoying a culture that tells them not to get married quickly and to sleep with as many girls as possible until they get tired and plump. They will find that they missed 95% of the great girls out there, including you, because girls like you won\u2019t be single for long. Not even till they\u2019re 26.\nSo, go date. Date \u2019em all. Date the 22s and the 33s and (okay, maybe not) the 44s. If your guy friends are out playing the averages, going on 1,000 dates to get laid, then you go on 1,000 dates\u2026 to find someone who doesn\u2019t care that you\u2019re 22 because they\u2019re only 22. Or 33\u2026 or\u2026\nDrew: I am not a licensed anthropologist. However, I am confident in stating that, throughout history, the male species has demonstrated an unequivocal willingness to date 22-year-olds. Maybe it didn\u2019t work out for you with those few guys, but, if my unlicensed research is correct, you\u2019ll have plenty more opportunities. So just try to enjoy yourself along the way. Also, in an attempt to be taken more seriously by the anthropological community, I have translated* your letter into hieroglyphics. This is what it looks like:\n*Unlicensed translation\nGuy Friday: No, you\u2019re not doomed to be single. But I also think you need to recognize that, just because YOU think you\u2019re in the same \u201cphase of your life\u201d as these older guys, doesn\u2019t mean they agree with you. I mean, I\u2019m 30 now, and I\u2019ve gone through several different \u201cphases\u201d since I graduated law school five years ago, and even more since I graduated undergrad nine years ago (and that\u2019s the first time I wrote that out, so excuse me while I cry a little for my youth). And that\u2019s OK; we all want what we want, and that\u2019s life. But very few great life partners come before you have had a lot of unfruitful first dates, so keep the faith and remember that, while you may have been a professional for a while, you\u2019re still only 22 and you have TONS of time ahead of you.\nOne other thing though: It\u2019s not like I\u2019m offended, but I want to challenge your notion that people still in school or living with roommates aren\u2019t in the \u201csame phase\u201d as you. While I was in law school, I was actively trying cases and working, as well as having classes, and I lived with roommates because I was single and frugal. Had I been in a relationship with someone, I\u2019d have lived with them, but why pay more rent for less space than I could get sharing a 2-bedroom/2-bath? You might consider at least cautiously dipping your toe into the \u201cpeople your own age\u201d dating pool, because you may be pleasantly surprised with what you find.\nmylaray January 14, 2015, 8:18 am\nI think this is interesting. I also graduated college early at 20, and have been working for 5 years now. As a result I have friends who are all over the place in ages, which is great. My husband is 5 years older than me, and there was never an issue with the age gap. I did tend to find that dating someone older was more similar to where I was. But, I didn\u2019t write off people my age. You miss out on a lot if you\u2019re too selective like that. And like Guy Friday said, life phase is important. Sure my husband and I met when I was 20 and he was 25, but we were about in the same place in life. Especially at 22, you\u2019re going to find older guys who just want to date a hot young thing for awhile and not be serious. It\u2019s not that different from the stereotypical immature guys at your age. So cast a wide net, and then weed out from there.\nd2 January 14, 2015, 9:02 am\nBeing in the same phase is more important than to be at the same age, so you shouldn\u2019t limit you dating pool simply by age. However, there are different phases to think about \u2013 the phase of your personal self and the phase of your professional self. That may (or may not) make a difference to you in compatibility.\nWeirdly, my personal phase and professional phase have not been in sync most of my life, so I have found it difficult to find a comfortable match. Or maybe my problem is that I\u2019m just weird. \ud83d\ude42\nJenny January 14, 2015, 9:05 am\nDrew\u2019s hieroglyphics are everything.\nEssie January 14, 2015, 9:08 am\nI think that part of your problem is that you\u2019re treating being married, or at least coupled, as the next box on your checklist. High school \u2013 check, college \u2013 check, professional job \u2013 check, husband \u2013 check.\nLots of 22-year-olds think that\u2019s the way life works. Lots of divorced 30-year-olds realize that it\u2019s not. \ud83d\ude42\nHere\u2019s how it really works. You start thinking about marriage when you\u2019re in a relationship that so solid, so good, so RIGHT, that you realize you want to wake up next to this person for the rest of your life. That this is the person you want as your partner as you go through all the phases of your life.\nYou may meet this person when you\u2019re 22. Or 35. Or 55. Or never.\nOr maybe you\u2019ll meet a guy who would be your best friend and life partner, the love of your life, and reject him without even getting to know him because he\u2019s only 2 years older than you are, instead of 10.\nLose the timetable. Lose the checklist. Lose the criteria. Live your life. Meet people. Date people. Get to know people instead of measuring them against some arbitrary list of requirements. Stop husband-hunting and just live.\nkmentothat January 14, 2015, 10:23 am\nThis. LW, if you pay attention to nothing else\u2026.read what Essie said.\nAlso\u2026I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t settle down seriously with anyone too early in my career because it would have limited me. As a woman, it just tends to, because it seems to be that women are more often willing to move for their significant other\u2019s job than vice versa. When I moved to Chicago, EVERYONE assumed it was to follow a guy. It was unfathomable that at 28 I was moving to a city 2,000 miles away where I knew no one for my career. Willingness to relocate, change jobs, etc. and answering to no one but yourself is HUGE in income potential. Also, pregnancy in the early (0-10) years of a growing career can really set you back (not always, planning and a great company really help). Maybe this is just from a personal and corporate perspective, but appreciate the time you have to build your career on your own terms.\nmemboard January 14, 2015, 12:39 pm\nThat\u2019s great advice but you are also trading off a family for it. There are real disadvantages of having a family later in life.\nI am not sure if kids are better later than earlier in a career. I fact I would go with an earlier rather than later. Early in the game you are junior enough that 1 or 2 years missed might not be a big deal. Later when you are more senior you just might mommy tracked to avoid the larger business impact of your maternity. It\u2019s a tough call. (this presumes you are working a 40h job, not these workahoolic 70h/week schedules in which case friends with benefit should be what you aim at).\nkmentothat January 14, 2015, 1:20 pm\nYeah there are many perspectives on when the right time to start a family is, but I do not think my advice means you are necessarily trading off a family.\nThe advantages for waiting: I have significantly more financial security now as 30 year old than I had a few years into my career, which I think is HUGE in raising a child. Additionally, I have more money for childcare/am closer to my parent\u2019s retirement age so my mom could be a potential nanny, whereas earlier in my career I would have paid a lot in childcare when making considerably less or had to take a year or two off and depended on a significant other\u2019s salary, and then try to jump back into a role that still has a lot of competition (junior level roles tend to have more applicants).\nAlso, I have more seniority at a better company than I did at that age, so I could actually take 4 months of paid maternity time versus the no paid time at the job I had then, though there is certainly no guarantee everyone will end up in a supportive company. I work for a Big 4 firm and have seen women in top positions that weren\u2019t mommy tracked and were given a lot of flexibility because they had proved themselves to be valuable in the long term to the company (versus someone who has only a few years in). The first 5-10 years are often the big push years (really proving yourself, longer hours) and when you get to a more senior position you have more leeway to balance work to fit your schedule. However maybe that\u2019s the exception, and again, I am speaking from a purely corporate perspective, but in my world I think it makes a lot of sense to wait.\nI\u2019m glad you addressed this comment in a well thought out way.\nFrankly, I\u2019m not sure what the trade off is? There are advantages and disadvantages no matter what age you have children. It really depends on the two people having the children and what they\u2019re comfortable with.\nAs for this LW, if she wants to start a family now\u2026 ok\u2026 fine\u2026 BUT what I think EVERYONE is telling her is to not focus on age so much in the men you date. That\u2019s ridiculous. Also, don\u2019t worry about the checked boxes, which it sounds like she\u2019s doing. It\u2019s silly to rush things just so you can say you\u2019re married and are ready to start a family. That\u2019s why there\u2019s a hell of a lot of divorces, IMO. Isn\u2019t it better to take your time and partner up with the right person? Your potential children will have a lot better parents for that reason alone.\nWell said. I really disagree with this \u201cThere are real disadvantages of having a family later in life.\u201d There\u2019s a different set of pros and cons having a family later in life. It\u2019s tough having kids anytime. Personally, I am way better suited to being a mom at 35 than I was at 25. Professionally, personally, and physically (I was not a healthy 25 year old!)\nRedroverRedrover January 14, 2015, 2:14 pm\nI had kids later and I think my career was better off that way. By the time you\u2019re in your 30s the trajectory of your career is very clear. Everyone has decided if you\u2019re a rising star or not. Everyone knows what you\u2019re good at. Leaving isn\u2019t a big deal. If I had left early in my career, I think it would have stalled it. You\u2019re at the point where you\u2019re still moving around a lot, figuring things out, finding out where you fit. You\u2019re building a network and getting to know the business. Leaving at that point could be quite an interruption to all that.\nOf course everyone\u2019s mileage may vary, but that\u2019s my perspective. I was 37 when I had my son, and that\u2019s really too late to be mommy tracked. Everyone knew who I was and what I was capable of, they weren\u2019t re-forming their opinions of my abilities based on the fact that I now have a kid.\ncoconot January 14, 2015, 10:58 am\nExcellent advice! LW please heed.\nWhat Essie said!\nPortia January 14, 2015, 11:17 am\nThis. I have too many friends that need to hear this advice\u2026\nOh this is so good! Lots of 22-year olds think this way and lots of divorced 30-year-olds realize that it\u2019s not. This is SO SO right! Lose the checklist and lose the time table and you will be SO much more happy!\nzanderbomb January 14, 2015, 9:09 am\nIt might also be worth some internal reflection. Like Drew said, men like 22 year olds. I also know a lot of men in the age range you stated who are NOT looking for marriage right off the bat. Patti Singler (?) would also tisk you for asking the men out (not saying I agree, but it is her job.) It could be if you are doing all the asking your picker is a little off. Are you looking at a specific type of man? And you seem very goal oriented. Why do you think you\u2019re ready for marriage? Because its the next level of achievement? I just think you need to ask yourself a lot of honest questions before assuming its just a number.\nNow that I\u2019m done marveling over the hieroglyphics, my advice to LW is: pump your breaks! You\u2019ve achieved a lot and that\u2019s admirable, but that doesn\u2019t mean you need to start looking for a husband at 22. It sounds like your young years have been spent being quite busy\u2026have some fun!! Life isn\u2019t a giant to-do list with items to check off. And I\u2019m kinda a hypocrite because I got married at 23, but I was just a regular dumb kid up until that point and had a few years of being young and carefree. So go out and have fun and maybe along the way you\u2019ll meet the right guy.\nI can\u2019t tell from your letter how much, if any, dating or relationship experience you have. You may feel mature and ready to settle down at 22, but the problem is marriage isn\u2019t just about \u201csettling down,\u201d it requires an important set of skills that most people don\u2019t have at your age. That\u2019s why something like 75% of marriages under the age of 25 don\u2019t work out. Combination of not knowing what you don\u2019t know and hence picking the wrong person and, if you do pick a good one, knowing how to make it work over time.\nI was one of those 75%. Sure, I was adult enough at 20/21 to physically get married and live a life with my husband, but he was my first boyfriend and NOT the guy I should have married, nor did I have enough emotional maturity, skills, coping mechanisms, etc. etc. etc. to effectively deal with the problems we had.\nAll these people are right, let things happen organically and don\u2019t rush things toward an end goal.\nlynn January 14, 2015, 9:52 am\nAge truly isn\u2019t an issue. Trust me. I don\u2019t have a ton of \u2018boyfriend\u2019 experience, but I\u2019ve gone out with plenty of older guys, and I definitely did a lot of that when I was 22. Like others have said, it\u2019s just a matter of meeting and finding guys who want to be serious. Granted, I wasn\u2019t looking for anything serious then. When I was 22, I had been out in the real world for a year, as I already had a position waiting for me upon graduation, and I dated a guy in my apartment complex for a couple months. He was 31, so 9 years older than me. He chased me for a few months before I gave him a chance, and we actually really liked one another and went out several times until his work transferred him to a new city a few states away. But, we remained friends, and he calls every once in a while to catch up on life.\nOn the flip side, also when I was 22, I went out a few times with a guy who was 20 years older than me. We met out and about one day\u2026 I was silly and thought he was much younger than he was, and he pegged me for about 28-29. He later said I looked young, but acted much older. Anyway, we were out at dinner one night, and it was the first time we brought up age. He began telling me about his kid, and I panicked a little bit, and asked how old his kid was\u2026 Turns out his kid was 15, and at that point, I asked him if he knew how old I was and vice versa. So, we had that conversation and whatnot, and I told him I wasn\u2019t comfortable dating someone that much older than me. Great guy, a lot of fun, but I definitely wasn\u2019t mature enough for a potential relationship with him.\nI would focus less on the demographics and more on the individual. Life is not linear.\nDrew is legitimately funny!\nSeriously, though, that drawing is legitimately funny.\nLW, While others have said not to focus on marriage, I think it is fine to date with intention. I do fine that you need to re-frame your approach. You hate being judged for your age but seem to judge men for their age. I would really look at goals and ambitions. I met my husband at 23 and we were married a 25. Now in my mid 30s, I can tell you that we have friends that still don\u2019t have their act together. we have one friend who has never moved out of his parents\u2019 house. I would try to find a man that has the same value systems and go from there. I would date a bunch until you find the right guy because there are going to be a bunch of guys that will be wrong for you. IT is a numbers game so keep fighting the good fight.\nYes, I agree, don\u2019t assume that a 27/28 year old has his sh*t together. My now husband certainly didn\u2019t at that age (but thankfully does at 35!).\n\u201c\u2026 bank account approaching four figures \u2026\u201d Bri Bri makes me laugh, too.\nWow LW, you and I are in the same boat. I only date 28 to 31-year-olds too, but I turned 35 today. Wait, I will go down to 27. So there\u2019s that.\nTotally kidding, although I did date a dude six years younger than me and he acted a lot more mature than me.\nDon\u2019t pigeon hole people because you\u2019ll likely end up with someone you have lukewarm feelings for instead of someone awesome.\nDear Wendy January 14, 2015, 11:04 am\nEve January 14, 2015, 10:42 am\nI agree guys in their early 20s are generally immature, don\u2019t know what they want out of life or out of relationships. But hear this.\nI have a friend who is turning 30 this year. He will definitely fit your set of criteria as he has a good career as well, he\u2019s mature and funny and has a nice car. However, he seems to have some serious commitment issues which is why he primarily dates girls your age and mine (22). Girls our age don\u2019t start pestering him about living together and having families and huge commitment words like women his age do, so he has his fun with younger girls and then moves on without committing to anything.\nI\u2019m telling you this because you can\u2019t just find your marriage-material guy by judging people based on their age and career and that\u2019s it. Someone may be in the right phase in life in terms of his career, salary, property, etc, but that doesn\u2019t mean that he is in that stage of life to commit to you or to anyone at all\u2026 (the same works the other way round).\nAlso, I may be wrong but if i was a 30 year old guy at the stage of looking for the woman of my life to have my kids and build a home and family with, I likely will not be looking at 22 year olds\u2026. I think men at this age (30) know girls our age have a lot of growing up and learning to do about relationships and life. The general perception is that at this age instead of starting families, we are supposed to be dating around, getting to know ourselves better, the relationship scene, getting to know guys and what we want from a relationship, what our priorities are, and I think that\u2019s what you should be doing.\nJust because you\u2019ve got your high school and college degree earlier than most and have been a professional in a certain field for 2-3 years, doesn\u2019t mean that you have all of that sorted as well. This comes with experience by dating different people. Finding the One or whatever doesn\u2019t happen using a checklist, like graduating from college and getting a good job.\nMy advice is to enjoy your early 20s with like-minded people you enjoy spending time with, what\u2019s the rush to get all settled and married and have 3 kids by the time you\u2019re like 25 ?! Is there some pressure upon you to have everything \u201csettled\u201d by a certain age (like, 25)?\nSeriously, you need to stop trying to control literally everything happening in your life and just let loose, have fun with friends, get to know people from different backgrounds and age groups, you don\u2019t know where your next boyfriend will come along. You can\u2019t predict everything which will happen in your life, if so far you have \u2013 good for you, but it doesn\u2019t work this way when it comes to relationships.\nRedroverRedrover January 14, 2015, 10:59 am\nI work with a team in China and one of the guys came overseas to work locally with me for awhile. He was 25 and his wife had just had their first kid. At the time, I was in my mid-30s and just planning my wedding. I told him how great it was that he met his wife and had kids so young. His response? \u201cYeah, but I feel like I\u2019ve accomplished everything. I graduated university, got a great job, got married, bought a house, had a kid, all in 2 or 3 years. My next big accomplishment will be becoming a grandparent\u201d.\nMy point is, don\u2019t rush. Why do you want to be \u201cdone\u201d so soon? I guess if you have kids early it does make it nice to travel in your 40s and 50s when you have more money. But travelling young is great because it\u2019s easier to do hostels and that kind of thing. If you feel like marriage is your lifelong dream and what you truly need to fulfill you, then that\u2019s fine and that\u2019s the answer to my question. If that\u2019s the case then sure, keep looking for marriage. But if not, then relax and just date for the fun of it. Make an adventure out of life. Enjoy yourself without having marriage as the end goal of each first date.\nI really love people\u2019s comments here, so well put together!\nOn a totally separate note, I seem to have always had older guys asking me out (like up to 10 years older than me), no idea why lol .. something about the vibes I send to them.\nAnd some of them turned out to be total creeps. So yeah, don\u2019t judge people by their age. Be more open-minded.\nJust a thought, but maybe the guys are getting scared off because of your obvious focus on marriage and not your age? Almost no guy, whether he is 22 or 32 or 42 wants to get too serious straight away, and honestly you shouldn\u2019t want that either. I did happen to get married very young \u2014 at age 21 \u2014 but was definitely not looking to do so. My plan was always to get married after grad school at 27-28, but after 2 years of dating my now husband, I couldn\u2019t picture a life without him, so I threw my life plans to the wind and got engaged. 5 years later, I am still very happy with my decision and wouldn\u2019t change it for the world, but I am sometimes sad that I didn\u2019t get the chance to date around into my 20s. There are so many awesome guys out there to experience!\nSince you are young and have lots of time, try to just enjoy dating until you find someone you can\u2019t live without, rather than looking so pointedly for someone to marry. I can say with certainty that I would never have even started dating my now husband if I was pre-screening him as marriage material \u2014 he didn\u2019t meet the check boxes I had in my head at the time. Our first date was meant to be hanging out with friends, our first week was just hooking up, and we sort of accidentally fell into a relationship. What I am trying to say is that it is possible to miss out on a great guy if you are focusing too hard on marriage, since you don\u2019t always know ahead of time what you will want, especially if you are young and don\u2019t have a lot of dating experience.\nOh and FWIW my husband is 9 yrs older than me, but we were both in school for the first 2 1/2 yrs of dating. I agree with LW that looking for someone in the same \u201clife phase\u201d is important, I just want her to stop looking specifically for marriage!\nI get the vibe that you\u2019re judging these guys on their age even though you don\u2019t want to be judged yourself. I get that you are mature for your age but in my opinion you need to chill out a bit. I was actually the same way when I was 22 \u2013anxious to get married. Let me tell you, I wasn\u2019t at all ready for marriage even though I thought I was. I recommend that you go out on lots of dates with lots of guys. Kiss a lot of guys. Figure out what it is that you are looking for. What do you have to lose? There will be immature guys at every age and that\u2019s just a risk you take sometimes. Broaden your horizons and you may be pleasantly surprised.\nhoneybeenicki January 14, 2015, 11:36 am\nIt\u2019s ok to date with *intention* to get married, but I agree that maybe you\u2019re coming off as a bit overzealous about the whole settling down thing. I don\u2019t know that I agree that all guys in your age group are immature and unable to even be options for marriage, just like not all guys 5-10 years older than you are mature and ready to be married. Marriage should occur because you love someone and can\u2019t imagine life without them, you have had a chance to get to know them and you are both on the same page and ready to make a legal commitment to one another. Marriage should not occur just because its the next item to cross off your to-do list in life.\nI don\u2019t necessarily think that 22 is too young to get married (I got married at 22). I think that the tone of your letter tells me you\u2019re not quite ready yet. I think you\u2019re focusing too much on age (which doesn\u2019t matter) and not enough on experiencing life. Date around, ignore the numbers (unless they\u2019re under 18 \u2013 in which case its illegal) and eventually you will find the person you are looking for. He might be 22 or 25 or 30. Only time will tell.\nacastil5 January 14, 2015, 11:44 am\nI will say dating someone who is focused on just marriage or finding \u201cthe one\u201d can be incredibly unattractive, coming from experience. Maybe that is why they are moving on, and your age is a convenient excuse. I say there is nothing wrong with acting 22\u2026if you are 22. Enjoy it! Go out and have FUN. You probably have the MONEY to enjoy yourself\u2026something I definitely didn\u2019t have at 22. Open yourself up to new people\u2026and experiences\u2026because you sound sort of judgmental of other people\u2019s choices and lifestyles and you could probably use it.\nMy first thought when reading your letter was that professional maturity and emotional maturity are two different things and just because you have one doesn\u2019t mean you have the other. You say you completed your degree so early because your parents pushed you. Your parents controlled your life. So you were 20 when you graduated and 22 now. Are your parents still controlling your life? If they are you aren\u2019t anywhere near ready for marriage. Are you wanting to get married because you want to get married or do you want to get married because your parents say you should? If you want to do this for your parents you aren\u2019t ready for marriage. You can\u2019t have a time table for when you get married because you can\u2019t control when you will meet the right guy. I think it is good to know what your deal breakers are and to be picky when selecting who you will date but many people your age don\u2019t yet have the right deal breakers. I would personally consider it a deal breaker if someone was living their life to make their parents happy. Take your time. Participate in activities that you enjoy because you are most apt to find someone similar by doing something you like. All of the professional criteria is nice but it doesn\u2019t mean you are an emotional match. It doesn\u2019t mean you have similar values or sense of humor or life goals. It doesn\u2019t mean you would like spending time together. Find someone who has something in common with you by doing things you love. If all you do is work and getting ahead financially you may be boring and need to find what it is you like beyond work. What do you like to do to relax? What do you like to do on weekends or on vacation time? Find you joy in life and that\u2019s where you are also likely to find a partner who is similar to yourself. I met my husband by joining a chemistry fraternity in college. We both socialized through the fraternity and had fun together. If your joy is your profession then look for social outlets that incorporate your interests.\nI also want to add that you can rush a degree but you shouldn\u2019t rush a relationship. Let it take as much time as needed to make sure it is the right relationship before you get married. If it will last a lifetime it will last a few years before you get married. Rushing to marriage is a good way to end up divorced. Especially take it slow if you\u2019ve never had a serious relationship. The less relationship experience you have the more apt you are to miss red flags because you won\u2019t realize that what you are seeing makes the two of you incompatible. You can fall in love with someone with whom you could never be happy.\narod11 January 14, 2015, 12:40 pm\nI am torn over this! On the one hand, I think it\u2019s admirable to have your shit together at 22\u2013and despite the rhetoric that she may not be THAT mature at 22, I think it takes a LOT to enter college at 16 and cope sufficiently to graduate within 4 years AND go straight into a career (something that many students graduating on a regular timeline can\u2019t seem to manage). On the other hand, I was set up really well at 22\u2013career job, grad school, paid my own rent and bills AND was in a long-term, live in relationship for a year already with my now husband, who was in grad school for his doctorate and is 2 years older than me. But I look back and I\u2019m glad we waited to get married for a few more years\u2013not because it made a huge difference in the choice I was going to make, but because there was so much we had to work out about our expectations for a relationship before we were ready to make that kind of commitment. Like, I always knew that was the direction it was headed in, and maybe that\u2019s what the LW is looking for (???) and we\u2019re just misunderstanding? That she wants a relationship headed towards marriage but not necessarily to get married right now, this second. This is a lot of pressure to put on herself, a guy and their relationship, but at the same time, she has to be honest about what she wants to give the guy an opportunity to bow out if he\u2019s just looking to have fun and doesn\u2019t see himself settling down for another 10 years. I think looking for guys who are a few years older is a good idea, and it seems weird that so many guys would write you off as too young if things were going well otherwise. The LW just shouldn\u2019t depend on age as the be-all, end-all indicator of maturity and readiness for \u201cthe next step.\u201d\nLyra January 14, 2015, 10:32 pm\nTo me it has sounded like she\u2019s REALLY focused on marriage. Not necessarily serious relationship leading to marriage, but she has her end goal in mind all the time. \u201cI am not particularly interested in guys my age because marriage is the last thing on their minds.\u201d She literally doesn\u2019t mention anything about serious relationships at all. Quite honestly I think that\u2019s why she\u2019s scaring off all these guys. I don\u2019t think we\u2019re misunderstanding it at all, I think she comes on really strong and focused solely on getting married.\nThe only 22 year olds I know in a similar fast tracked to career situations haven\u2019t had much other experiences that people in their early 20s/late teens have had to develop their personal identity yet. Given my experiences, I wouldn\u2019t date someone in that age bracket in a similar position. Maybe down your age bracket a little where it\u2019s still older, like 25 instead of 28. It\u2019s a surprisingly huge difference.\nI wouldn\u2019t cross a guy off just because he\u2019s living with roommates! It\u2019s a great way to save money and be future focused if a person can stand roommate living. Just keep dating around and having fun. Like others have said, let go of the timelines or they\u2019re going to make you feel like something\u2019s wrong with you when there doesn\u2019t seem to be.\nMoneypenny January 14, 2015, 1:40 pm\nI totally agree with everyone above! I will say that, when I was in my early 20\u2019s I always dated older guys. Not by preference, it just sort of worked out that way. I dated a guy who was 29 when I was 21. And a guy who was 28 when I was 23. It was fun. But I also wasn\u2019t marriage minded and neither were they. Like others have said, there\u2019s no checklist to life, and just because someone may be 25 and still in college doesn\u2019t mean that they are not interested in anything serious. Frankly, I find that presumptuous and a little insulting to people who aren\u2019t on the \u201ctraditional\u201d track of- high school-4 year college-career-marriage-babies. There\u2019s no \u201cright\u201d way to do life. And there\u2019s nothing wrong with living with roommates or even living at home- 36% of millenials (age 18-31) live at home. (Including myself, for the present time.) Does that mean I\u2019m not interested in getting married or whatever? Not at all. Speaking for myself, I\u2019m very interested- but at the moment I\u2019m saving and paying off my student loans, plus I live in one of the most expensive areas of the country. My point is- looks can be deceiving. What you *think* you\u2019re looking for is not necessarily what you\u2019re going to find. Be open to the possibilities!\nBittergaymarcius says: Many a wise man will date a 22 year old,\nbut only the fool will marry one.\nNext Post: \u201cShould I Tell My Colleague I Have a Girl Crush on Her?\u201d Previous Post: How to Fall in Love in 37 Simple Steps (Scientifically Proven!)",

        "raw_content": "When I started my Debt Free Do Over earlier this year, the first thing I had to do was start a budget. The scary thing about doing my budget was that I knew that it wouldn\u2019t look pretty. In fact, it was downright ugly!\nWhen I started my budget, I looked at my monthly income and compared it to my monthly outgo \u2013 I had a monthly shortfall of close to $500.\nMy wife and I discussed it.\nWe fought about it.\nWe were terrified.\nIt\u2019s a very scary thing when you see it in writing. When you see that your income needs to increase by almost a week\u2019s worth of income. Through it all, we had two things that we refused to compromise on when it came to our budget. We refused to go further into debt and we were going to tithe. Meaning that we were going to trust God to help us through our budget.\nAs I mentioned before, I am a Christian, even still, I haven\u2019t always been a faithful tither, but when my wife and I committed to getting out of debt, we also committed to tithing and amazingly something changed in our budget. We decided to take God at his word \u2013 the only time in the Bible that God says to test Him:\nBring your full tithe to the Temple treasury so there will be ample provisions in my Temple. Test me in this and see if I don\u2019t open up heaven itself to you and pour out blessings beyond your wildest dreams. Malachi 3:10 (The Message)\nGod has provided. He has stayed true to His word. Every single month, since we\u2019ve started tithing, our bills have been paid. Some months we were scraping up our last penny to pay the bills and some months there have even been a surplus! The math never worked on our budget, how did I go from having a $500 deficit to having everything paid? I was making more headway with 90% than I was when I had the full 100%.\nHOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?!?! I can assure you, it\u2019s not my amazing math skills!\nOver the years, I\u2019ve talked to a lot of people about why they do or don\u2019t tithe. Here is the most common reason I\u2019ve heard for not tithing, for what it\u2019s worth, this was the same excuse that I used for the longest time:\nWhen I get done paying my bills, I don\u2019t have anything extra to give! If this is your reason for not tithing, it means your budget is out of order! You need to put tithing at the top of your budget. Tithe literally means: a tenth of your income.\nIf you earn $500, that means $50 goes to tithe, and you have $450 to spend as you need to cover expenses. When you faithfully give, God will bless you and that $450 will work more efficiently than the $500 ever could.\nIf you\u2019re struggling with your budget, and you do not tithe, I challenge you to start! Give the first 10% of your income to God and see how He blesses you.\nI want to end this post with a testimony of the benefits of tithing:\nAbout a month ago, I was speaking to a friend of mine who was struggling with this very topic. She was working and barely making ends meet. She\u2019d been looking for a better paying job, but seems like she was getting closed doors everywhere she looked. She was just beginning to review her own finances and put together her budget.\nWhen I asked about tithing, she told me would give to her church when she had a little extra \u2013 but she was nervous about giving a full tithe \u2013 because she did not have enough to cover her expenses.\nI challenged my friend to build tithing into her budget. I didn\u2019t know if she took my advice or not, until tonight, when I got this message from her:\n\u201cThat tithing thing is pretty cool. Last Thursday morning, I interviewed for a job and they said they\u2019d have their decision in the beginning of next week. By 2:30 that afternoon, I had a job offer\u2026\u201d\nMy friend went on to talk about the other perks that come with this new job, including higher pay, a better location and room for growth. She took a step out in faith, she TESTED God \u2013 and He came through in ways she couldn\u2019t even imagine.\nThe Takeaway: If you\u2019re struggling with your budget, maybe you\u2019re trying to control too much of it.\nIf you have any comments or questions, please feel free to comment here or you can email me at: debtfreedoover@gmail.com.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Teaching Our Kids: Banish The Gender Stereotypes\nWhether you have sons, daughters or both, you want to make sure that your kids grow up tolerant, sensible and responsible. You don\u2019t want your little darlings to grow up thinking that they can\u2019t achieve something simply because of their gender. While the world is still male-dominated with a wide gender pay gap and there remains a vast chasm between the number of men and women on company boards, you don\u2019t want your children to have their view of the world tainted by stereotypes.\nThe excellent thing is that momentum is shifting so that women are becoming better represented in the most senior positions in blue-chip companies. When more women are represented on a company\u2019s board, that company\u2019s profits tend to be higher as demonstrated at www.catalyst.org/media. Although progress is slow, society\u2019s attitudes towards women in the workplace are becoming fairer. If you look at the leaders of the free world today, Theresa May and Angela Merkel are two of the most powerful people on the planet, and each has risen through the ranks irrespective of their gender. So how do we teach our youngsters that gender stereotypes shouldn\u2019t be adhered to and need challenging?\nMany young people now have the dream of working for themselves and starting their own businesses. It\u2019s vital that both sexes have an equal opportunity to achieve this aim. Boys may want to forge a career in the more traditionally feminine roles, setting themselves up as a make-up artist or creating a successful catering business. Girls may want to flex their muscles and become self-employed plumbers or electricians or set up their own haulage companies. The point is that anyone, male or female, can venture onto www.RobSinclairFinance.com.au/rent-to-own and see just how easy it is to utilise all finance options available and set up their own company, whether this is in transport, haulage or logistics. Gender is not important.\nHow often do you see little boys in tops emblazoned with \u2018Champion\u2019 while girls clothing have less empowering slogans splashed across them such as \u2018Princess\u2019 or \u2018Mummy\u2019s Little Helper?\u2019 It\u2019s vital that we move away from these demeaning sentiments on girls t-shirts and tops and create a more gender-neutral attitude to children\u2019s clothing. John Lewis, one major retailer of children\u2019s clothing, has already gone so far as removing the \u2018boys\u2019 and \u2018girls\u2019 labels in their ranges. The traditional aisles of blue and pink are no more allowing parents and kids to select their clothing based on their likes rather than social conformity.\nGrowing up in the technologically dominated twenty-first century is tough enough as it is without having to worry about your position in society because of your gender. As responsible parents, it\u2019s vital that we are able to teach our kids how to be mature citizens of the world with a sense of justice and fairness. The world is moving in the right direction, and it\u2019s now up to us to keep up the momentum for gender equality.\nAccessible Parenting Advice\nHow can you ensure your child gets \u2026\ngender, growing up, teaching children\nPrevious Post It\u2019s time to find your #HotterFit with Fit Fortnight\nNext Post Getting the Music Right for Your Wedding Reception",

        "title": "Colorado governor wants map of drilling pipelines after Firestone house explosion - Denverite, the Denver site!",
        "raw_content": "Colorado governor wants map of drilling pipelines after Firestone house explosion\nBy Dan Elliott and Kristen Wyatt, Associated Press\nColorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said Wednesday the state should have comprehensive maps of oil and gas pipelines to help prevent a repeat of a fatal house explosion blamed on an old, severed gas line.\nHickenlooper said that may require a new law, and the Legislature is unlikely to pass one this year because the session is almost over.\n\u201cBut I don\u2019t think it\u2019s unreasonable for that to be public information,\u201d he said.\nHickenlooper spoke a day after investigators announced that an April 17 explosion that killed two people was caused by odorless, unrefined gas leaking from the severed underground pipeline.\nThe line was believed to be abandoned but was still connected to a gas well with a valve turned to the open position, investigators said.\nThe underground flow line was was 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) in diameter and had been severed within 10 feet (3 meters) of the home, officials said. Investigators said they do not know when or how the line was cut.\nState regulations require abandoned lines to be disconnected and capped. Investigators have said they do not know why that was not done.\nWith 54,000 active oil and gas wells, Colorado has thousands of similar lines, known as flow lines. They carry oil or gas from a well to a storage tank or other collection point.\nThe Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which regulates the industry, said it does not have complete records of the locations.\n\u201cSome of these old wells that are abandoned, I\u2019m not sure if people even know where the flow lines are,\u201d said Hickenlooper, a Democrat and a former petroleum geologist. \u201cWe\u2019ll try to go to every data source we can get.\u201d\nHe said it could take two years to compile the data.\nImmediately after investigators announced their findings about the explosion, Hickenlooper ordered inspections of all flow lines within 1,000 feet of occupied buildings.\nThe order, issued by the Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, requires energy companies to give the state GPS location data on their flow lines. A commission spokesman did not immediately respond to questions about whether that data would be sufficient to create a flow line map.\nThe explosion was in Firestone, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) north of Denver. Mark Martinez and his brother-in-law, Joseph William Irwin III, were killed. Erin Martinez \u2014 Martinez\u2019s wife and Irwin\u2019s sister \u2014 was badly burned.\nThe families issued a statement Wednesday thanking community members for their support.\nAuthorities said the Firestone Police Department is investigating their deaths, and Hickenlooper has said the state will look into whether anyone broke state laws or regulations.\ngas, justice, Firestone, Denver, Colorado",

And, if you\u2019re Thomas Markle, a time for complaining to literally anyone that will listen about your Duchess daughter! Yup, Meghan Markle\u2019s dad is once again giving interviews to the press\u2014and you\u2019ve probably noticed that she\u2019s been dealing with it in a very specific way. Namely, by not dealing with it at all.\nUgh, Thomas Markle Just Gave Another TV Interview\nMeghan has yet to publicly acknowledge her dad\u2019s many pleas for attention, and apparently this is a choice. A choice the Queen doesn\u2019t necessarily agree with. According to Vanity Fair, Her Majesty actually wanted to intervene in the situation, but Meghan wasn\u2019t having it. A source told the magazine:\n[The Queen] was very concerned that it was spiraling out of control, which it was. Buckingham Palace wanted to be able to do something and be proactive and make the situation go away. It was a direction from the Queen, so her courtiers were under strict instructions to sort it out. But Kensington Palace was not singing from the same hymn sheet, and that was because the message was coming from Meghan. She didn\u2019t want to engage and thought that she could handle it on her own.\nMeanwhile, Meghan\u2019s refusal to comment on the situation has created some tension: \u201cThere was a lot of tension between courtiers within the two royal households, and I think it just got to a point where it was stalemate and, you know, neither could move,\u201d the source continued.\nIt looks like Meghan\u2019s wishes were respected, because she\u2019s remained silent about her father\u2019s antics\u2014even as he continues to give interview after interview to the press.\nPosted in newsTagged Britain, Meghan Markle, Queen Elizabeth, The Royal Palace\nPrevious Ugandan President, Mossoveni issued opinion on Miss World Africa\nNext The Honering of Viola Davis and Nina Jacobson at Hollywood Reporter\u2019s Empowering Women in Entertainment Event",

        "raw_content": "It may be tempting to think about representing yourself during your divorce. Maybe you\u2019re in the business field or own your own company and think that you know how to negotiate. You may believe you can spot a \u201cgood deal\u201d when you see it and that you will be able to settle your case on terms that are favorable to you. If you represent yourself, you would not need to spend money on an attorney. Despite those temptations, it is critical that you seek professional legal advice in your divorce matter. There are many dangers in representing yourself and you risk doing irreparable harm to your case. Among the most important reasons to use an attorney are the following:\nThere are strict procedures and timing requirements governing divorce\nThe perils of self-representation are present in every turn of a divorce case, including the very beginning. If you have been served with a complaint, you have a very limited amount of time to respond to that complaint. If you do not file a response in that short period of time, your spouse will be able to file a default against you and proceed with his/her case unopposed. Even if you do respond to the complaint, the paperwork you submit can be rejected by the court. The court requires very specific paperwork with proper attachments before it will be filed.\nThere are precautionary steps that should be taken early in your divorce matter to protect you.\nMany people are not aware of their rights, and even if they are, they do not know how to take appropriate steps to enforce them. For instance, if your spouse has cut you off financially upon the filing of the complaint, what do you do? What do you do if you think your spouse is dissipating marital assets, half of which belong to you? How do you prevent your spouse from doing that? These are all questions that any competent attorney will be able to answer and deal with on your behalf.\nYou may not receive or provide the necessary information required for settlement negotiations or trial.\nOne of the most important parts of the any matrimonial matter is the \u201cdiscovery\u201d process. The discovery process is a period of time during the case wherein both sides exchange information and documentation to ensure that each party has all the information they need to reach a fair settlement or prepare for trial. If you are not represented by an attorney, you will not know what information and document requests are reasonable and which ones are not. Your spouse\u2019s attorney could very possibly \u201cpaper\u201d you with irrelevant requests and cause you to spend unnecessarily and waste an enormous amount time. On the other hand, your spouse\u2019s attorney can be reluctant or can downright refuse to share your spouse\u2019s information with you. If you have an attorney, that attorney will be able to serve a subpoena to get the information fairly easily within two weeks. If you do not have an attorney and lack the power to subpoena institutions, you will be forced to seek help from the court, which could take months to arrive. If you think your spouse may have hidden assets or income, it will be virtually impossible to find out unless you have an attorney\u2019s help.\nIn addition, one of the most important documents completed during the discovery process is the Case Information Statement. The Case Information Statement is required by the court and includes a breakdown of your income as well as your estimation as to the marital lifestyle. If you do not complete this document fully and if you cannot justify the numbers you include in the statement, it could spell disaster for you from a negotiating standpoint as well as during trial.\nPreparing for and arguing a case at trial requires extensive knowledge and skills.\nYour matter will be scheduled for trial if it is not settled by a certain point in time. Preparing for a trial and conducting one are among the most difficult tasks an attorney can undertake. If it is difficult for an attorney, it is nearly impossible for a person with no legal experience. What is a trial brief and how do you prepare one? How do you examine and cross-examine witnesses? What experts do you need? How do you deliver an opening and closing statement? How do you get documents into evidence? These are just some questions that a non-attorney will encounter representing himself/herself at trial. The court will not provide you with any help or patience during the trial. It will hold you to the same standards as if you were an attorney and it will lose patience if it feels like its valuable time is being wasted.\nA fair settlement is much more difficult to achieve than you think.\nEmploying an attorney to draft, review and negotiate a settlement is crucial to protecting your interests. An attorney will understand all relevant factors, be able to spot potential issues and enlist experts in valuation, specialized accounting and other disciplines when needed. Unfortunately, we have many individuals come to our office who represented themselves during their divorce settlements and settled their matter on very unfavorable terms (even though they believed the terms to be favorable at the time they entered the agreement). Some of these individuals actually did reach a fair settlement, but with the way the agreement was written up, they ultimately entered into an agreement that was far less favorable than they thought. In many instances, we are not able to help these individuals. The reality is that unless the agreement is extremely one-sided, it is very difficult to set aside a settlement.\nAlthough technically you do not need an attorney to represent you during your divorce, your best opportunity to receive fair treatment by the court and in settlement negotiations is to have legal representation. A qualified attorney can advise you of the relevant law in the state and guide you on achieving the best result in your matter.",

Automatic operation is necessary to isolate faults on a power system in a minimum time. The study of time coordination of relays suggests improved ways of power line protection. The protection must be sensitive enough to operate when a fault occurs under minimum fault conditions, yet be stable enough not to operate when its associated equipment is carrying the maximum rated current, which may be a short-time value. A power system is used as an example of time coordination of distance relays that are responsible for clearing any possible faults. The communication of the protection relays is associated with the backup protection which is responsible for covering the failure of the main protection system. In addition, the reliability of the power system is improved by establishing the right relay communication and settings.\nCharalambous, Nicos, \"Coordination of time-overcurrent relays for high-speed power line protection\" (1994).

        "raw_content": "Blue Jasmine Review\nWoody Allen\u2019s gotten some of his steam back and Blue Jasmine is a pretty great movie for him. It\u2019s fun and playful and a bit tortuous. It\u2019s got a lot of interpersonal tension between its characters that roils in a very quiet way until it ultimately explodes.\nBlue Jasmine is the story of Jasmine, a New York City socialite, who\u2019s lost everything. She was a figurative mob wife while her husband was guilty of something involving money and illegal off-shore accounts. I think there was something about a ponzi scheme, not sure. It\u2019s not important. (Do you get it?)\nJasmine (played by Cate Blanchett) is left with nothing and is forced to move to San Francisco to live with her sister for a bit as she gets her life together. She\u2019s teetering on the edge of a nervous breakdown as a result.\nJasmine is not a terrible person (though her personality can be abrasive) and you\u2019re hoping the best for her. She takes up a job as a receptionist at a dentist\u2019s office and works at learning computers so she can be self-sufficient. Her sister, meanwhile, is more of a lowly slums girl (from Jasmine\u2019s perspective) who was screwed over by her husband\u2019s asset management and Jasmine takes no responsibility for it.\nThat these are brought up passive aggressively is a testament to the writing skills of Woody Allen, but he still needs to pick his subjects better. Once again, we\u2019re dealing with upper crust New Yorkers. Once again, we\u2019re dealing with a story about infidelity.\nBlanchett really does a number on this film, so much that I\u2019d rival her with Amy Adams. While I think Adams would win if American Hustle were strictly about Sidney, Blanchett will win because a) she\u2019s the focus of the film and b) her position and acting is far more obvious.\nThat\u2019s not a knock at all\u2013Blanchett absolutely nails this role in the lilt of her upper crust accent and disaffected New York hautiness. There\u2019s one scene in particular, when Jasmine is looking for some vodka and can\u2019t find it, that she loses her shit and shouts \u201cWho do I have to screw to get a vodka around here\u201d in the most visceral tone. We never see that side of Jasmine again, sadly, but it burns bright enough to leave an impression.\nHer sister Ginger (Sally Hawkins) is the antithesis\u2013a low down hooker-with-a-heart-of-gold who\u2019s beginning to think about the relationships around her. Hawkins does a fantastic job with this role, fitting it quite neatly, but doesn\u2019t provide a whole lot of depth because, again, the movie is about Jasmine and not her. When she sees Jasmine is poison for the people around her, she kicks Jasmine to the curb.\nThe movie is essentially about Jasmine\u2019s dependence on the kindness of strangers and how that ends up hurting her. She eventually recedes into her personality habits and hurts the people around her. It ends with her being homeless on the streets of San Francisco.\nIt\u2019s a bleak ending and one I hoped wouldn\u2019t happen, but it was still a pretty decent movie and Blanchett really did chew the scenery in it.\nVerdict: Pretty good character drama, Blanchett nails her part and will probably get an award or two, Hawkins does pretty well.\nFiled under movie review, movie reviews\nTagged as Blue Jasmine\nI\u2019m a big lover of David O. Russell films. His films explore realities of characters and nobody ends up the same by the end of it. They\u2019re thoughtful and thought-provoking and fun and crazy and engaging. He always gets the best of his actors.\nAmerican Hustle, though, isn\u2019t quite as good as his previous work.\nThe story is about a grifter and his girlfriend who get caught by the FBI and wrangled into a major sting of politicians and mobsters. Christian Bale plays Irving Rosenfeld (Irv), the master grifter. Amy Adams plays his girlfriend, Sydney Prosser, who acts as Lady Greensleeve when grifting. Irv and Sydney are busted by Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). Richie forces them to help perform a sting on Atlantic City mayor Carmine Polito (Jeremy Renner). When they get through to the mayor, whose main goal does seem to be helping his city, more politicians come through the door and it links to a couple of mobsters as well.\nIrv also has a flamboyant sparkplug wife who he\u2019s not particularly interested in: Rosalyn Rosenfeld (played by Jennifer Lawrence). When she\u2019s brought into the fold against his wishes, she gets jealous at Irv and Syd\u2019s relationship and begins playing with fire, putting the entire mission in danger and nearly killing Irv. Irv figures his way out of it, though, and etc. etc. etc.\nRussell took an extraordinary amount of time to develop the characters. He\u2019s absolutely the best in the business at this and American Hustle succeeds because of it. It doesn\u2019t transcend into the realm of other-worldly, though, because of it.\nThe film itself doesn\u2019t quite maintain its focus. If it were more character-driven, I\u2019d expect it to be another slam dunk for Russell. It isn\u2019t, though. As a whole, the plot wanders and misses a few major points here and there, failing to really identify what it\u2019s about.\nThat\u2019s not to say this movie isn\u2019t good; on the contrary, it\u2019s pretty dang good. It\u2019s entertaining and treats us to a pretty fun, sometimes scary, ride. It\u2019s just not one of the best movies of the year.\nAt the expense of the movie as a whole, Russell does get a few great performances from Jennifer Lawrence, who stole some scenes but was clearly allowed to, and Amy Adams. Adams comes off weird to some in this one because she plays a far more subdued character in an otherwise over-saturated movie. She\u2019s, however, the best actress in the movie.\nWomen with low self esteem do this thing with the edges of their mouths where they\u2019re constantly frowning. It\u2019s pretty common among women who\u2019ve been sexually traumatized. Adams does this throughout the movie. I\u2019ve never seen an actress even do that before. You can even see it in her face when she\u2019s frowning that she\u2019s \u2026 I don\u2019t know, there aren\u2019t words to articulate this well enough. She\u2019s vulnerable and afraid to be hurt again and feels like its coming. Women in these situations also tend to not want to be themselves. All of these issues, and that frown, go away when she\u2019s Lady Greensleeve.\nThe best part of Adams\u2019 role is the accent: it\u2019s terrible, changes locales, and disappears completely when she\u2019s pushed.\nVerdict: Very good, but not great movie. Amy Adams delivers a subtly brilliant role, one deserving of Best Actress in most years.\nTagged as American Hustle\nPhilomena Review\nVerdict: Oscar bait-y. Decent story that\u2019s ruined by meta-story and melodrama. Has its moments, but is at other times plaintively manipulative. Judy Dench does have some fine bits in it, but that\u2019s about it.\nTagged as Philomena\nLet me start off by saying this movie isn\u2019t as brutal as you\u2019d think\u2013not in the way that you\u2019d think. There\u2019s only a few scenes of abject brutality and punishment and they\u2019re over pretty quick. What sticks with you is how pervasive it is; how impossible it is to escape; how long this goes on. It\u2019s a presentation of the massive, systemic issues with slavery and that\u2019s what sticks with you.\nHollywood has never truly had a great film on slavery. Roots showed the slave life for what it was, but wasn\u2019t as complex. Glory had the complexity, but didn\u2019t show the slave life. Steve McQueen put together a movie here that shows slavery for its complexity both through slaves and slave owners. It didn\u2019t pull its punches. It didn\u2019t hide slavery\u2019s brutality, but it didn\u2019t indulge in torturing its audience either. It held the gravitas while allowing the audience to hope. It played with the audience\u2019s ideas of right and wrong and brought it back into the morals and ethics of the time period.\nThis is the movie that slavery deserves.\n12 Years a Slave is the story of Solomon Northup\u2019s slavery. He was a free man living in New York with a wife and two children, living as a violin maker and player, until he was kidnapped, tortured into accepting a life as a slave, and working as a slave for 12 years. That\u2019s the basic gist of it. The rest is the nitty gritty details of slave life.\nThe most incredible part of 12 Years a Slave is how humanizing it is. There are no GOOD GUY or BAD GUY signs hanging around actors necks. It shows the spectrum of people both inside and out of slavery. We\u2019re with Solomon throughout this movie, but we\u2019re still watching his torture, we\u2019re feeling it in him and all of his thought processes. While he starts the movie thinking this is a temporary situation, he changes into finally accepting that he\u2019s a slave. All credit is due to Ejiofor for hinting at those issues with just looks on his faces\u2013and to McQueen for getting that out of his actor.\nAnd yet, we were transported to this time where this was all right and normal. It was the way of the land. Nobody stood up against it. People saw what was wrong with it and did nothing.\nThe film itself is a little disjointed\u2013as it should be, since we were given extremely specific examples of brutality and the operations of systemic oppression in antebellum south in a 12 year span. The action in it though comes together to form a pretty solid narrative, piece in piece out, of the overall affectations of slavery.\nI remember reading in my US History textbook about how some slave owners never even heard of whipping slaves, as if there were good slave owners. For once, a movie showed one of these slave owners and didn\u2019t pull its punches. Even the \u201cgood\u201d slave owner, Ford, (played very convincingly by Benedict Cumberbatch), tortured his slaves psychologically, forcing them to stockholm syndrome there way into loving him. Solomon gets rewards for being a good slave and he seems to be OK with that, waiting for his moment to break free. In addition, Ford was an apparently decent man, but still complicit in everything wrong with slavery.\nMaybe the most powerful part of this movie is when Solomon is finally freed and it dawns on the viewer that this was \u201conly\u201d 12 years for one man who was lucky enough to be freed. It wasn\u2019t every day of his life, of his parents lives, of his grandparents lives, of every life before in his lineage and most likely after. He wasn\u2019t going to see his children born into slavery and suffer the same life he had, playing while other slaves were hanged in front of them, beaten and raped. The entire tone of the movie absolutely nailed the constant chaos of the environment in an otherwise normal field work setting.\nMy hope is this will be used in schools to teach about slavery and the complexities of systemic slavery.\nVerdict: Maybe the greatest movie on slavery ever made, will rest easily among the best historical dramas in film.\nTagged as 12 years a slave\nIt\u2019s Oscar baiting season, so I\u2019d like to start off with my favorite so far.\nThere\u2019s a great short story by Jo Ann Beard called The Fourth State of Matter (you can read it here on the New Yorker\u2019s site). In it, she describes working at a science magazine when a gunman walked in and shot up the place. She was out of work for the day because her husband had left her. A good number of her coworkers died. Since she moved to the area and no longer had a husband, she had no one to talk to about this, despite a few people who sympathized. She uses the idea of floating in space as a metaphor for the constant turmoil, numbness, and disconnection she experiences after the event.\nGravity is gonna be remembered for its visual effects and not its story. That\u2019s a tragedy because Gravity is one of the best movies with a message I\u2019ve ever seen.\nSandra Bullock plays Ryan Stone. She\u2019s more or less an astronaut mechanic sent to fix the Hubble telescope. Some space debris collides and tears apart her ship, as well as some of her coworkers. It shatters her reality, sending her adrift in the atmosphere as she loses all contact with anyone that can help her. The movie is about her finding her way safely back home. This entire thing, including the visuals, is a metaphor.\nGeorge Clooney plays veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky. He likes to tell stories. While floating in the majesty of space, he calls himself a bus driver, cognitively reframing that, even though this seems like an enormous and rare mission, there\u2019s nothing special about it other than it\u2019s happening above the earth. As things fall apart, he maintains his role as navigator for Stone, helping her adjust amid the turmoil and helping he get back home, often acting supremely casual in terrifying circumstances.\nIn essence, the film is a meditation/narrative on surviving trauma. The movie very clearly sympathizes with Bullock, who fights every inch to save her life.\nA lot of the action in the movie is a metaphor and a sort of facsimile of cognitive processing therapy. The metaphor here is that she experiences a major trauma: people around her are killed and she\u2019s sent adrift into the atmosphere with no guidance. Kowalsky navigates her back to the ship. She then relives these horribly traumatic moments as she jumps space craft to space craft. The tumult and agony for Stone of just trying to survive is great and costly. She loses people important to her on the way until she\u2019s the only one left.\nThis isn\u2019t just a narrative about trauma itself, but a metaphor of the greater process of trauma. Surviving trauma is similar to Stone\u2019s story. People who survive the initial trauma often get out of it (with some help), but then begin isolating, self-preserving, withdrawing. This is when, for a number of them, they commit suicide.\nIt\u2019s a tough thing to grasp for people who haven\u2019t been through it (or seen someone go through it) and it can come off as overly simplistic and a little sappy for those that haven\u2019t. I think that\u2019s the case here.\nAt the lowest point of the film, when Stone finally finds the Russian escape pod, but can\u2019t figure out how to get to the Chinese one, Stone begins to withdraw. She contacts a guy through a ham radio. The guy doesn\u2019t speak her language (metaphor). Think of all of the times you were at your worst, horribly in the dumps, and you start talking to someone and they\u2019re not even close to understanding what you\u2019re going through at that moment. Stone goes through this and withdraws and accepts her fate, resigning to suicide.\nShe then talks to a mental projection of Kowalsky, who cognitively reframes this whole situation. He navigates her back to fighting for her life because life itself is worth living. She fights perilous scenes and survives. She comes back down to earth (metaphor). She takes her first step on land (metaphor).\nThis is the problem. Because it\u2019s such a simple story of loss and navigating through trauma, the film comes off as overly simplistic and shallow. The panic and high stress and anxiety in the film are channeled to the viewer and it is SUPER INTENSE watching it on an enormous screen and that distracts from the film\u2019s subtleties, yet enhances its overt (and seemingly simple) message: trauma happens, but it\u2019s survivable and makes the person stronger.\nThat message was well delivered. Cuaron capitalized on every bit of action in the movie. It was meaningful. It\u2019s one of the few truths of the human experience. It was a goddamn impressive piece of work.\nIt\u2019s a shame most people aren\u2019t seeing that, though.\nTagged as gravity, movies, review\nInterview: Clayton Kershaw Talking Pitches and Their Order\nFound my tape recorder with some old interviews on it. Discovered one with Clayton Kershaw from this game here.\nWhat was your best sequence of the game?\nI don\u2019t know. I threw a couple change-ups [to Soto] to get back to 1 ball, 2 strikes. The third curveball, you know, he took for strike 3. That was the best sequence, I guess, using all of my pitches.\nDo you feel the curveball broke particularly well, or did it fool him, or was he not looking for it?\nYeah, he wasn\u2019t expecting it, especially for a strike, so um. Any time I can throw off-speed for strikes that gives me something else to throw.\nSorry to ask about this, but that home run to Soriano, what was the sequence? Slider, fastball, fastball?\nYeah, he hit a 2-0 fastball out of the park. I\u2019d rather give up a home run than walk him. That\u2019s just the way it is.\nWas it mislocated?\n[smiling wryly] I dunno, I\u2019ll look up the film and let you know tomorrow. A homer\u2019s a homer.\nFunny how different he sounds in his interviews today. Good kid.\nTagged as Clayton Kershaw, pitches\nPacific Rim Review: Why Wasn\u2019t This Expanded Into Two or More Movies?\nLet\u2019s be honest here, you\u2019re not seeing this movie for the acting\u2013and that\u2019s great, because despite a pretty solid cast and a few surprisingly good performances, the story and the acting are \u2026 not great. I love Idris Elba and there was nothing he could do for this. I don\u2019t like Charlie Hunnam, and although he wasn\u2019t awful, he couldn\u2019t stop himself from playing Jax Teller again (bleugh). This isn\u2019t their fault, though, as there just wasn\u2019t enough time to tell this story. One movie was clearly not enough.\nYou are seeing this movie because robots and monsters. And it\u2019s awesome. The fighting sequences are incredible\u2013balletic, almost. They\u2019re intense and at times I found myself squeezing the armchair a little too hard. They hold your attention and make the boring dialogue palatable.\nThere isn\u2019t much to say about this movie outside of that, except for one thing (which I\u2019ll get to in a second). The story, the acting and most of the things that help a movie tell its story were lacking. Everything was crunched together, tightened so hard that a number of things were left out. You had to wonder how much was left on the cutting room floor\u2013and how much was cut out of the first script.\nThere\u2019s a much bigger issue here, though. In a movie era where everything is made to fit a trilogy or more, here comes a movie tailor-made for a trilogy and it gets one movie. Del Toro and Beachem packed in so goddamn much that an entire script\u2019s worth of movie was explained in the first two or three minutes. They even laid out how this would\u2019ve worked for a trilogy:\n1. First kaiju attack + first jaegers and the first victory over kaiju.\n2. Kaiju getting stronger and stronger (Empire Strikes Back kind of ending).\n3. The majority of this movie.\nAnd it could\u2019ve been really, really good. Like, legendary good.\nThere was so much to unpack in this movie that the world of jaegers and kaiju came off as stunted. I honestly wanted more background here, and I don\u2019t say that for a lot of movies.\nRegardless of what you thought of the acting and the script and all that stuff, this movie promised robots and monsters fighting. And it was awesome. We\u2019ll remember it for being fun and cool, but there\u2019s a part of me that\u2019s always going to wonder why this one didn\u2019t get a multi-movie deal and a chance to spread its wings.",

This is the proof.\nPosted in:Rachel Bilson|SFW\nRachel Bilson Inception Tits of the Day\nHere\u2019s some Rachel Bilson, who hasn\u2019t been interested since the 1990s show the OC\u2026.but who was abducted by a Canadian actor, who was barely an actor, but got the role of young Luke Skywalker, solidifying his place in the world, where he kept her in a cage like his prized hen or stag back on his Ontario farm, that he got to knock up and breed with before she decided to escape 10 years later, hoping back on the scene tits out\u2026too little too late\u2026but we\u2019ll always remember Summer before she was a mom aged girl with mom tits\u2026just not very well..it wasn\u2019t that memorable of a show really.\nRachel Bilson Pics up the Pace on her Insta Slutty of the Day\nA few weeks ago Rachel Bilson, who I assume is a mom by now, you know she was with her handler or captor or whatever you want to call that guy for a while now, and it only makes sense that at 30 something she\u2019d get knocked up, and breed\u2026it\u2019s the American and I guess every culture way to run pussy so that men get fixate on younger and fresher pussy..\nThat said, she dabbled in some bikini or bathing suit pics on her IG, you know she\u2019s an actress and thus an attention seeking whore, but that doesn\u2019t mean she\u2019s a content producer too, so it takes time to warm up\u2026and a few weeks later\u2026her bikini selfie finally involves cleavage and cleavage is apparently the thing that makes a shitty or boring self indulgent social media pic better\u2026seee we are learning here with Bilson\u2026it feels nice being in this together.\nEither way, proof that tits make everything better\u2026\nRachel Bilson is Boring of the Day\nIn the event you\u2019ve been sitting on the edge of your seat, hoping not to break it, because you\u2019re a fat fuck, for the last 5-10 years since the OC ended, wondering what the hell happened to Rachel Bilson, knowing you heard something about her being abducted by her baby daddy / husband \u2013 Canadian actor who hasn\u2019t really had that high profile of a career since he was in Star Wars\u2026.you\u2019ll be glad to know she\u2019s still fucking boring\u2026and that whole being abducted shit was just adding flare to her boring existence\u2026as you can reference in these pictures, this is how she interprets a beach selfie to look, and I don\u2019t think she\u2019s that old, even though she is old\u2026.never too old to know tits / ass / nipple or really anything is the answer.\nThat said, she was my favorite on the show the O.C., much hotter than Marissa Cooper / Mischa Barton, even though she\u2019s gone onto be far more exciting, drunk, a disaster, disgusting, fat than skinny \u2013 a sex tape star then sex tape cock block\u2026.while this one seems to be some kind of Mormon or Born Again in terms of sex appeal. Tragic really.\nRachel Bilson Bikini of the Day\nRachel Bilson is on a TV show\u2026I just assumed she was still locked up in the farm up in Canada with her Star Wars boyfriend who robbed her of her youth like he was Britney\u2019s parents, preventing her from having fun, slutting out, and flashing pussy outside night clubs, like all the other girls from the time she was first famous were doing\u2026..and now he\u2019s polluted her vagina by making it a mom pussy\u2026with his sperm\u2026.because that\u2019s what you do when trying to trap a girl forever\u2026just ask David from 90210\u2026he\u2019s on the same hustle, but with Megan fox\u2026\nAll this to say, she got in a bikini pre-pregnancy\u2026.I assume\u2026and these are the pics that are going viral\u2026\nRachel Bilson\u2019s Kid Has Grown Up Fast of the Day\nHere\u2019s a picture of Rachel Bilson and her kid\u2026.who seems pretty fucking old considering that it feels like it was just a few months ago that she was finally knocked up, reminding us all that no one gives a fuck about Rachel Bilson \u2013 her pregnancy \u2013 or really anything that involves her \u2013 because when she had the opportunity to be scandalous and amazing \u2013 she moved to Canada to live in a farm with her Star Wars boyfriend/now baby daddy/ handler\u2026When she should have been living life and flashing her cooter \u2013 she was playing housewife and milking beavers \u2013 and not the good kind you find in the magazines \u2013 and strip clubs or VIP room, but the Canadian kind. It\u2019s a delicacy\u2026beaver cheese, not just for crackwhores anymore\u2026\nEither way, we can always hope for the divorce that sends her single momming into a spiral of reliving the glory days she missed.\nRachel Bilson Pregnant in a Bikini of the Day\nIn case you were wondering\u2026Rachel Bilson is still pregnant.\nNo late term abortions, miscarriages, or accidental falls down the stairs by her husband Luke Skywalker, because knocking her up has been his plan since the 90s, he just finally trapped her into it properly\u2026.\nShe\u2019s also pushing the limit of appropriate bikini behavior, because we all know when a girl in pregnant, bikinis aren\u2019t really anything anyone who doesn\u2019t have a ready to drop fetish want to see\u2026\nBut when it comes to first pregnancies, where vagina is still intact, there is a little more grey area on when it\u2019s decent or not\u2026and if you\u2019re a Bilson fan, despite her not really doing much the last decade, you either really hate that her ride is over, or love seeing her life happen before your creepy fucking eyes\u2026\nRachel Bilson Cleavage of the Day\nHere is Rachel Bilson climbing out of some caves in Barbados with her tits out\u2026.because she wants people to stare at her tits\u2026otherwise she\u2019d be wearing a fucking sweater\u2026 Pregnant girls are all the same\u2026starved for male attention, especially when held captive by her boyfriend of ten years who stifled her career for pretty much the last ten years\u2026\nThey are walking out of caves, and this is probably one of the more ridiculous pictures of any celebrity, whether a pregnant or not, that the paparazzi have ever capture\u2026\nNow I find pregnant girls disgusting, but there is that window of opportunity where they are awesome, not fat year\u2026just looking like they overate\u2026and unable to get pregnant because they are already pregnant\u2026and titties all swollen\u2026\nI guess, she\u2019s not in the OC anymore\u2026.that shit got cancelled, like her birth control prescription. What a fail..on her part, but this picture is a win for all of us\u2026even if you\u2019re not a tit guy\u2026it\u2019s funny.\nRachel Bilson Pregnant Bikini Pics of the DAy\nWhat better way to celebrate Memorial day by remembering what was\u2026by looking at what is\u2026after it went to war with Skywalker\u2019s Canadian penis and lost\u2026I am talking Rachel Bilson\u2019s uterus. The cute girl, turned destroyed mom body\u2026And the only salvation she\u2019s got going for her is that her pussy isn\u2019t a mom pussy just yet, but in a few months it will be..So for now she\u2019s ready to drop\u2026here I cum\u2026but soon to be forgotten\u2026\nI figure her bikini on Memorial day is far better than this Elliott Rodger rich kid with asperger\u2019s virgin turned killer\u2026turned youtube star\u2026\nAll this to say, pregnancy is like mass murder on your sex appeal..here\u2019s the proof..",

        "title": "A Guide to Sandcastle - Part 1 - Introduction - DZone",
        "raw_content": "A Guide to Sandcastle - Part 1 - Introduction\nGenerating documentation doesn't seem to be that of an important task for libraries developers use day by day. However, chances are that the comments introduced in the code itself aren't quite readable and easy-to-navigate. When an assembly grows quite big, it is harder to know exactly what's where, and that's the point were generated documentation can help a lot.\nSandcastle is an open-source documentation generation toolset that facilitates the process of creating MSDN-like help files for managed assemblies. It surprised me that there is no official documentation on the official page (there are, however, blog posts all around the web that describe the tool). I decided to write my own set of articles that will guide the reader from the very beginning to more advanced concepts.\nToday I am talking about the general setup and a test build for a Windows Phone 7 application.\nStep 1: Download and Install Sandcastle\nHead to the CodePlex and grab the most recent build (currently it is 2.6.1062.1). It is worth mentioning that the Visual Studio 2010 (and .NET Framework 4) documentation was built using tools included in Sandcastle - it is most definitely the most reliable documentation solution for .NET projects.\nOnce you install the toolset, nothing will ultimately change in Visual Studio and you won't see any additional menu items in the Start menu. This is normal - you just installed the raw (core) set of tools that is located in the folder you specified during the installation (in my case: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Sandcastle).\nStep 2: Look at what you have available\nThe folder structure you got should resemble something like this:\nHere is a short explanation of what each folder contains.\nData - contains XML-formatted reflection data on general .NET assemblies. Used to generate documentation on existing types.\nExamples - as the name states, there are existing documentation samples that can be used for reference purposes. Some of them require additional configuration in order to work.\nPresentation - contains general styling information (for different doc types, like VS2005, Prototype or HANA).\nProductionTools - contains the actual tools that perform the documentation compilation.\nProductionTransforms - contains XSL stylesheets used to transform data XML to XHTML.\nSchemas - contains XML schema files related to general data manipulations (content parsing).\nThe initial set of tools might be a bit confusing and it seems like it's pretty hard to use. To make this task easier, there is a third-party project available that binds to the existing tools and allows to use a GUI to easily build and customize help content.\nStep 3: Download Sandcastle Help File Builder\nThat's exactly the tool I am talking about. You can get it on its official CodePlex page. It is extremely well documented and is pretty straightforward to use.\nThe installation process is mostly automated - you will still be able to pick what options exactly you want there. For now, you need to have the Sandcastle tools installed, as well as the Help Builder. .NET Framework is, of course, a must have.\nStep 4: Launch SHFB (Sandcastle Help File Builder) and look around\nTake a look at the UI - there are lots of options available to customize the documentation generating process. If you see a blank screen, make sure you create a new project in the application.\nI should remind the reader that using the Sandcastle Help File Builder is not required to generate documentation using Sandcastle tools. It is merely a wrapper that automates many of the scripts that otherwise would have to be created and executed manually.\nThe main part of the screen is the property grid - that's where the developer is able to set what documentation types will be generated and what parts of the linked code base to be described. The properties listed are pretty self-descriptive and mostly don't require manual set-up (there are pre-defined choices available).\nBy default, on the right side there is the Project Explorer, where it is possible to add the managed projects for which documentation should be generated, as well as additional references tied to the projects themselves.\nDocumentation Sources should not be confused with the locations where documentation already exists (or is intended to be placed). It is, in fact, the branch responsible for keeping a list of current VS projects and managed assemblies.\nStep 5: Add a sample Documentation Source to the project\nRight click on Documentation Sources and click on Add Documentation Source.\nSelect an existing managed assembly or project. As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, I am going to work with a Windows Phone 7 application project, so that's what I am going to add.\nComment files (XML) can also be added as documentation sources.\nIn the properties grid, select the HelpFileFormat property and chose all four possible documentation formats - there will be four doc entities built for each separate format.\nHtmlHelp1 is the old-style CHM format. MSHelp2 is the help format used with Visual Studio (2002 to 2008). MSHelpViewer is the help format used in Visual Studio 2010 (obviously, formatted to be viewed through the Help Viewer application). Website is the web-version (MSDN-like) of the same help documentation.\nRight now I am picking all four options to show some very basic differences between the visualization formats. Later on I will discuss specific nuances related to each format.\nOnce done, select the Documentation -> Build Project menu option. You should see the progress being logged in a new tab.\nIMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on the current versions of Visual Studio installed (or the associated SDKs), some options might fail. For example, if you are trying to compile a MSHelp2 project and you don't have Visual Studio 2008 installed (or the VS2008 SDK), you will be prompted with a message like this:\nAll you have to do in this case is go back to project properties and remove the unsupported format.\nBut there still might be problems even without incompatible formats. SHFB doesn't resove cross-references at design time, so if a project references a DLL that is not known to Sandcastle (remember the Data folder mentioned in the beginning), another set of exceptions will be thrown.\nIn case the location of the referenced assembly is known (or it is included in the GAC), right-click on the References branch in the Project Explorer and show the path to the missing assembly(ies).\nOnce all needed references are added (if that was the case), restart the build process and you should be able to see how the build successfully completes. Usually it might take a minute or two for it to get done depending on the project size and the number of cross-references.\nWhen the build is completed, you don't need to leave SHFB in order to view existing documentation. Just go to Documentation -> View Help File and select the format you would like to view.\nNOTE: If you have the .mshc file ready, you will need to install it in in the existing help library (with the Help Library Manager) in order to use it.\nTo give you a quick overview of what the content looks like, here are some snapshots of what was just generated. I must mention that I am using the HANA theme here, so don't worry if it doesn't exactly resemble the MSDN style - I am always able to switch back to a more conservative theme.",

Pierce entered politics on the Democratic ticket and won a seat in Congress (1833-37). He was subsequently elected to the Senate in 1837-42. He returned to Concord and established a law practice which was extremely successful. Serving in the Mexican War, he rose to the rank of Brigadier General and, at one point, was offered the post of Attorney General in the Polk administration, which he declined.\nDuring the Democratic convention in 1852, Pierce was nominated on the 49th ballot and won an overwhelming victory against Winfield Scott in the subsequent presidential election. As the 14th President, Pierce supported the Gadsen Purchase, which acquired parts of Arizona and New Mexico, and the Kansas-Nebraska bill. His support of the latter alienated him from the northern Democrats and cost him the nomination in 1856. He thereafter retired to Concord and a life of relative obscurity.\nAFRP002 Annual Addresses\nAFRP001 Inaugural Address 1853 6 163k",

Charles Louis Secondat, Charles Louis de la Brede\nAuthor Code: FCMX\nBorn: Jan. 18, 1689 - La Brede, Bordeaux, France\nBorn Charles Louis Secondat and baptized Charles Louis de la Brede (named after his mother's estate), Montesquieu was educated at the college of Oratorians at Juilly, where he studied history, classics and the sciences. Because of a long family association with the law, he studied for the bar and became a jurist. On the death of his father, he was placed under the protection of his uncle, the Baron de Montesquieu. When his uncle died in 1716, Charles inherited the name in addition to a considerable fortune and his uncle's judicial office of President of the Bordeaux Parliament. Montesquieu's real interests were in literature and the sciences and he became a member of the Bordeaux Academy of Sciences. During the period 1717 through 1723, he contributed numerous scientific papers. His first true literary work came in 1721 with the publication of the Persian Letters which was extremely popular and established his reputation as an author and wit. In 1725, he moved to Paris and in 1728 became a member of the French Academy. Therafter, he toured Europe with the Earl of Waldegrave and Lord Chesterfield, spending a good deal of time in England. In 1734 he published The Considerations on the Causes of the Grandeur and Decadence of the Romans, which was very successful. In 1748, Montesquieu published his masterpiece, The Spirit of Laws, which had taken him five years to write and which had adversely affected his health. Although the work was not well-received in France, throughout the rest of Europe it achieved the highest praise. Most of the remainder of his life was spent on his estates in the country.",

It doesn\u2019t matter if they are 70 years old or 20 years old. If they spent 30 years as a carpenter or 15 years as an office manager, their desire to better themselves makes the world a better place.\nWe\u2019ve been able to bring together a group of people that are supportive, encouraging, and understanding of each other. Every single one of us knows what it\u2019s like to start at the bottom and work themselves up to living better, feeling better, and having more fun day to day.\nEthnicity doesn\u2019t matter and religion is inconsequential. All that matters is that they support each other and work hard to improve every day.\nWe have people from all over the world working with us to get healthy and live better.\nSee if you can figure out who is who\u2026\nClunie \u2013 Haiti\nThanuja \u2013 India\nFlora \u2013 Italy\nYuqing \u2013 China\nKelley \u2013 Trinidad\nDimitri \u2013 Greece\nFarye \u2013 Turkey\nFatima \u2013 Palestine\nEverything about them is different. However, they share a desire to be fit and to have fun. That\u2019s what brings people to our door.\nLearning how to get in shape isn\u2019t easy. It takes hard work.

        "raw_content": "IT Teams Can Influence Culture Across Campus\nTech departments have a unique opportunity to shape users\u2019 day-to-day experiences.\nSearch for books on \u201corganizational culture,\u201d and you\u2019ll find more than 46,000 listings on Amazon. The notion that institutions have distinct cultures that influence members\u2019 experiences has been around for years, but the concept is so rich that experts continue to find new ways to think about culture and how to improve it. As the role of technology in higher education has expanded, its influence on organizational culture has also grown \u2014 significantly.\nOrganizational experts have shown that positive, healthy cultures support recruitment and retention, improve productivity and customer service and boost innovation. Is a great culture a magic bullet for everything that ails a department? Culture advocates would respond, \u201cYes, it is.\u201d\nWhy Culture Matters for IT Teams\nIn an IT department, a positive culture can make the difference between lackluster, bare-minimum performance and the innovative, exceptional customer service that makes top IT teams stand out. Departments that engage and motivate staff are also better at recruiting \u2014 and keeping \u2014 talented employees, a key ingredient for a high-performing organization. Such workers are more productive and more likely to go above and beyond expectations, a huge benefit at a time when many IT teams are doing their best to accomplish more work with fewer resources.\nCreating such a culture may be easier said than done, but time-tested strategies for success include sharing a well-defined mission and making employees a part of it; providing training and development opportunities that are meaningful to staff; building a cohesive team through high morale and camaraderie; and setting policies that support a healthy work-life balance.\nCooperation for IT and Beyond\nIt\u2019s important to realize, however, that the importance of culture goes beyond the walls of IT. As technology has transformed the nature of work, it has become a major factor in the creation of culture throughout an organization. This is true across campus and may be especially true in higher education, an environment where people use technology not only for work, but also for learning, research, entertainment, community events and, in the case of students in residence halls, day-to-day living.\nEach of these areas is touched, in some fashion, by the tech solutions that IT delivers. Such influence goes beyond specific software or mobile apps to encompass the way that people engage with technology, the capabilities it makes possible (or not), the way tech initiatives are communicated and the way decisions around tech are made. All of this means that IT departments have a direct bearing on campus culture through the day-to-day experiences of staff, faculty and students.\nCreating Variations on IT Culture\nDo campus users view IT as the department that enables them to work smarter, better and faster, or do they view IT processes as a hurdle to overcome? Certain solutions \u2014 collaboration systems, virtual desktop infrastructure, mobile devices, the cloud \u2014 support the anywhere, anytime approach that many staff and students have come to expect. Yet as much as IT strives to make this approach possible, it also seeks to manage risk and keep users \u2014 and institutional resources \u2014 safe from cyberthreats.\nBalancing these two concerns is a perennial and central IT function, but how IT leaders communicate related initiatives to users can go a long way in shaping culture. When IT can\u2019t accommodate users\u2019 requests, or can\u2019t accommodate them quickly, do staff explain the rationale or the reasons behind a delay? Does IT have a positive track record of collaborating with outside departments to identify ways that IT services can enhance productivity while maintaining security? Is IT seen as a leader in initiating innovative projects that contribute to high-level strategic goals?\nEach of these areas offers opportunities to exert a positive influence on the culture of a campus. The flip side is also true: Not doing these things, or not doing them consistently, may lead to a perception that IT culture is stagnant or even opposed to innovation \u2014 a perception that might not be true.\nWithout question, IT has an unprecedented opportunity to play a big role in shaping the dynamics of work, play and life on campus. What kind of culture will you create?\nalexaldo/Thinkstock",

It was designed to identify alcohol-related problems amongst those attending accident and emergency departments. It concords well with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) questionnaire but is administered in a fifth of the time.[1]\nWhen 40\u201370% of the patients in an accident and emergency department (AED) are there because of alcohol-related issues, it is useful for the staff of the AED to determine which of them are hazardous drinkers so that they can treat the underlying cause and offer brief advice which may reduce the health impact of alcohol for that patient. In accident and emergency departments it is also important to triage incoming patients as quickly as possible, to reduce staff size and cost. In one study, it took an average of 73 seconds to administer the AUDIT questionnaire but only 20 seconds for the PAT.[2]\nThe working version of the PAT is reviewed at St Mary's Hospital based on feedback from frontline doctors in the emergency department (A&E) (see below). There is also a modified version in use for an English multi-site programme research (Screening and Intervention Programme for Sensible Drinking, SIPS).[3]\nThe latest version of the PAT is available on the UK Department of Health website, the Alcohol Learning Centre.[4]\nSeverity of Alcohol Dependence Questionnaire\nList of diagnostic classification and rating scales used in psychiatry\n^ Smith, SG; R Touquet; S Wright; N Das Gupta (Sep 1996). \"Detection of alcohol misusing patients in accident and emergency departments: the Paddington alcohol test (PAT)\" (abstract page).

        "raw_content": "American professional baseball league\nFor other uses, see Federal league (disambiguation).\nJohn T. Powers\nWilliam E. Robertson was President of the Buffalo, New York Federal League baseball team the Buffalo Blues.\nC. C. Madison in 1915. He was the former owner of the Kansas City, Missouri baseball club of the Federal League, the Kansas City Packers.\nKeene H. Addington of the Federal League circa 1915\nJames A. Gilmore of the Federal League circa 1913\nThe Federal League of Base Ball Clubs, known simply as the Federal League, was an American professional baseball league that played its first season in 1913 and operated as a \"third major league\", in competition with the established National and American Leagues, from 1914 to 1915.\nThe Federal League came together in early 1913 through the work of John T. Powers, and immediately challenged the operations of organized baseball. Playing in what detractors called the \"outlaw\" league allowed players to avoid the restrictions of the organized leagues' reserve clause. The competition of another, better paying league caused players' salaries to skyrocket, demonstrating the bargaining potential of free agency for the first time.\nInterference by the National and American Leagues in their operations caused the Federal League to fold after the 1915 season. This resulted in a landmark federal lawsuit, Federal Baseball Club v. National League, in which the U.S. Supreme Court ultimately ruled that the Sherman Antitrust Act did not apply to Major League Baseball.[1] The Federal League left its mark on baseball history in the field now known as Wrigley Field, which was originally built for the Chicago Whales Federal League team. The league itself and many sports writers considered it a major league during its existence; organized baseball recognized its major league status in 1968.[citation needed] It would be the last independent major league outside the established structure of professional baseball to make it to the playing field, and would be the last serious attempt to create a third major league until the abortive Continental League of 1960.\n3 Baseball Hall of Famers\nIn 1912, baseball promoter John T. Powers formed an independent professional league known as the Columbian League. However, the withdrawal of one of the organization's primary investors caused the league to fail before ever playing a game. Undaunted, Powers tried again the following year, creating a new league with teams in Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, St. Louis, and Covington, Kentucky. He named the organization the Federal League, and served as its first president.[2]\nBecause it did not abide by the National Agreement on player payment in place in organized baseball, the Federal League was called an \"outlaw league\" by its competitors. The Federal League's outlaw status allowed it to recruit players from established clubs, and it attracted many current and former players from the major as well as minor leagues. In its first season Powers initially served as president, but he was soon replaced by James A. Gilmore, under whose leadership the league declared itself a major league for the 1914 season. Other financers of the League included oil baron Harry F. Sinclair, ice magnate Phil Ball, and George S. Ward of the Ward Baking Company.[3]\nAs a major circuit, the Federal League consisted of eight teams each season. Four of the teams were placed in established Big League cities (Chicago, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Brooklyn). The other four teams were placed in more marginal areas (Baltimore, Buffalo, Indianapolis and Kansas City). In the first year, 1914, some of the teams had official nicknames and some did not, but either way, sportswriters were inclined to invent their own nicknames: \"ChiFeds\", \"BrookFeds\", etc. By the second season, most of the teams had \"official\" nicknames, although many writers still called many of the teams \"-Feds\".\nIn order for the Federal League to succeed, it needed Big League players. Walter Johnson signed a three-year contract with the Chicago team, but the Senators' Clark Griffith went personally to Johnson's home in Kansas and made a successful counter-offer.[4] Major League players that jumped to the Federal League included Bill McKechnie, Claude Hendrix, Jack Quinn, Russell Ford, Tom Seaton, Doc Crandall, Al Bridwell, Hy Myers, and Hal Chase. The Federal League also recruited Big League names to manage the new teams. Joe Tinker managed the Chicago team, Mordecai Brown managed the St. Louis team and Bill Bradley managed the Brooklyn team.\nThe league had close pennant races both years. In 1914, Indianapolis beat out Chicago by 1\u00bd games. 1915 witnessed the tightest pennant race in Major League history, as three teams (Chicago, St. Louis and Pittsburgh) fought into the last weekend of the season. On the season's final day, Sunday, October 3, Chicago split a doubleheader with Pittsburgh, winning the darkness-shortened seven-inning nightcap, 3-0; this combined with St. Louis' 6-2 win over Kansas City, knocked Pittsburgh back to third (albeit just a half-game behind), with Chicago and St. Louis in a virtual tie for first. But since the Whales (86-66) played two fewer games than the St. Louis Terriers (87-67), they were awarded the pennant based on their slightly better winning percentage (.566 to .565). Pittsburgh, with one game unplayed, ended up at 86-67 (.562).\nDuring the 1914-15 offseason, Federal League owners brought an antitrust lawsuit against the American and National Leagues. The lawsuit ended up in the court of Federal Judge (and future Commissioner of Baseball) Kenesaw Mountain Landis, who allowed the case to languish while he urged both sides to negotiate. Swift action might have made a difference, but without the lawsuit going forward, the Federals found themselves in deepening financial straits.\nAfter the 1915 season the owners of the American and National Leagues bought out half of the owners (Pittsburgh, Newark, Buffalo, and Brooklyn) of the Federal League teams. Two Federal League owners were allowed to buy struggling franchises in the established leagues: Phil Ball, owner of the St. Louis Terriers, was allowed to buy the St. Louis Browns of the AL, and Charles Weeghman, owner of the Chicago Whales, bought the Chicago Cubs. Both owners merged their teams into the established ones. The Kansas City franchise had been declared bankrupt and taken over by the league office after the close of the regular season, and the Baltimore owners rejected the offer made to them. They had sought to buy and move an existing franchise to their city, but were rebuffed, and sued unsuccessfully.\nOne of baseball's most famous ballparks was originally built for a Federal League team: Wrigley Field, the home of the Chicago Cubs, began its long life as Weeghman Park, the home of the Chicago Whales. Marc Okkonen, in his book on the Federal League, referred to Wrigley as a \"silent monument\" to the failed Federal League experiment. Otherwise, few visible remnants were left by the short-lived Federal League. The Baltimore entry sold their facility to the Baltimore Orioles of the International League, who renamed it Oriole Park and played there for nearly 30 years before it was destroyed by fire. The Newark ballpark was also used for minor league ball for a short time.\nWashington Park III in Brooklyn, completed after the 1915 season was underway, looked a lot like Chicago's Weeghman Park. It was used for various sports venues until the end of 1917 and then for storage until Brooklyn Edison Electric bought the property in 1925 and shortly thereafter tore it down. The right field wall still stands.[5]\nThe other Federal League ballparks were demolished quickly, including the home of the Pittsburgh Rebels, Exposition Park, which had been the home of the Pittsburgh Pirates of the National League until they moved into Forbes Field in 1909.[6]\nThe other \"silent monument\" to the Federal League is a famous legal decision. In 1922, the Supreme Court ruled in Federal Baseball Club v. National League (brought by the Terrapins, one of the teams which had not been bought out), that Major League Baseball and its constituent leagues were primarily entertainment, not conventional interstate commerce, and thus were exempt from the Sherman Antitrust Act.[1] Though significantly weakened in the 1970s, this exemption remains intact over 80 years later; however it has been eroded by subsequent court rulings and legislation regarding issues specific to Major League Baseball.\nOf the locations of teams in the Federal League, five currently have major league teams. Those are Baltimore, Chicago, Kansas City, Pittsburgh and St. Louis. Brooklyn has a New York\u2013Penn League team, known as the Brooklyn Cyclones. (The major league Brooklyn Dodgers moved to Los Angeles in 1958, although the New York Mets have been located in the adjacent borough of Queens since 1964.) Buffalo and Indianapolis have International League teams, the Buffalo Bisons and Indianapolis Indians, respectively. Newark had a team, the Bears, in the independent Can-Am League, which folded after the 2012 season.\nThere is at least one achievement of note that happened in Federal League play. Eddie Plank, pitching for the St. Louis Terriers, won his milestone 300th game on September 14, 1915 at St. Louis' Handlan's Park, becoming the first 300-game winning left-hander in the history of major league baseball and one of only six as of 2018. However, that milestone was not acknowledged by Major League Baseball until 1968.\nThe Federal League was the last serious attempt at creating a \"Third Major League\" outside the established structure of professional baseball in the U.S. There was one further attempt at creating a third league \u2013 the Continental League in 1959 \u2013 but its founders had hoped to find their place within the purview of organized baseball. The Continental League disbanded in 1960 without ever playing a game, making the Federal League the last such league to ever take to the field.\nThe Federal League features prominently in Ring Lardner's sports humor book You Know Me Al (1916), in which the protagonist pitches for the Chicago White Sox and repeatedly threatens to jump to the Federal League whenever he feels underappreciated or underpaid.[7]\nBaseball Hall of Famers[edit]\nPlayers in the Baseball Hall of Fame who played in the Federal League:\nChief Bender \u2014 Baltimore Terrapins (1915)\nMordecai Brown \u2014 St. Louis Terriers, Brooklyn Tip-Tops (1914); Chicago Whales (1915)\nBill McKechnie \u2014 Indianapolis Hoosiers (1914); Newark Peppers (1915)\nEddie Plank \u2014 St. Louis Terriers (1915)\nEdd Roush \u2014 Indianapolis Hoosiers (1914); Newark Peppers (1915)\nJoe Tinker \u2014 Chicago Whales (1914\u20131915)\n1914 Indianapolis Hoosiers 88\u201365 Bill Phillips\n1915 Chicago Whales 88\u201364 Joe Tinker\nBaltimore Terrapins (1914\u201315)\nBrooklyn Tip-Tops (1914\u201315)\nBuffalo Blues (1914\u201315)\nChicago Whales (1913\u201315)\nCleveland Green Sox (1913)\nCovington Blue Sox (1913) (Transferred to Kansas City, mid-season.)\nIndianapolis Hoosiers (1913\u201314) (Moved to Newark, 1915)\nKansas City Packers (1913\u201315) (Had been in Covington, until mid-season, 1913)\nNewark Peppers (1915) (Had been in Indianapolis, 1914)\nPittsburgh Rebels (1913\u201315)\nSt. Louis Terriers (1913\u201315)\n^ a b \"259 U.S. 200\". law.resource.org.

        "title": "Western skink - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Western Skink)\nGenus: Plestiodon\nP. skiltonianus\nPlestiodon skiltonianus\nBaird & Girard, 1852\nPlestiodon skiltonianum\n\u2014 Cope, 1875\n\u2014 Schmitz et al., 2004\nThe western skink (Plestiodon skiltonianus) is a species of small, smooth-scaled lizard with relatively small limbs. It measures about 100 to 210 mm (about 4 to 8.25 inches) in total length (body + tail). It is one of five species of lizards in Canada. They spend much of their day basking in the sun. Their diet ranges widely, including spiders and beetles. Western skinks will bite if grasped and will flee if they feel threatened. It is a common but secretive species whose range extends throughout Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming and into western Montana and northern Arizona.They can also live in some areas of Texas[3] It is widespread in northern California but primarily restricted to the coast in central and southern California. Found in a variety of habitats, this lizard is most common in early successional stages or open areas of late successional stages. Heavy brush and densely forested areas are generally avoided.[4] Western skinks are found from sea level to at least 2,130 m (7,000 ft).[5] This diurnal reptile is active during the warm seasons.[4]\n6 Defensive behavior\nInitially described in 1852 by Baird and Girard, the Western skink is named for Dr. Avery Judd Skilton (1802\u20131858), an American physician and naturalist,[6] who collected the first specimens. Together with Gilbert's skink (P. gilberti), the San Lucan skink (P. lagunensis), and the four-lined Asiatic skink (P. quadrilineatus), the western skink belongs to the so-called \"skiltonianus group\". The exact taxonomy within this group has yet to be conclusively determined, and may need revision following DNA analysis research.\nCoronado skink\n(Plestiodon skiltonianus interparietalis)\nThere are three recognized subspecies, including the nominotypical subspecies:[2]\nCoronado skink, P.s. interparietalis (W. Tanner, 1957)\nOccurs in southern California and Baja California, Mexico.\nGreat Basin skink, P.s. utahensis (W. Tanner, 1957)\nOccurs in Utah.\nSkilton's skink, P.s. skiltonianus Baird & Girard, 1852\nThe most common is Skilton's skink, which occurs throughout the western United States west of the Rocky Mountains and in southern British Columbia, Canada.\nThe western skink is a secretive and very agile lizard that forages actively through leaf litter and dense vegetation, preying upon small invertebrates including spiders, a variety of insects and sow bugs.[3] Crickets, beetles, moths, grasshoppers, and other arthropods have been found in the stomachs of skinks.[7] Prey is sometimes stalked and cannibalism has been reported.[8] It is a good burrower and sometimes constructs burrows several times its own body length.\nFound in a variety of habitats from sea level to at least 2,130 m (7,000 ft), the western skink is commonest in early successional stages or open areas within habitats in which it occurs. Heavy brush and densely forested areas are generally avoided. The western skink seems to prefer a somewhat moist environment, although it can also be found on dry hillsides. Frequents grassland, broken chaparral, pinon-juniper and juniper-sage woodland, and open pine-oak and pine forests.[9] The soil of its nest chambers is invariably moist. Standing water is apparently not required.\nWestern skinks can be distinguished from similar species by a broad brown or black band originating on the side of head and extending past the hind legs (Left). They also possess seven supralabial scales (Right).\nAdult Western skinks have a broad brown stripe down their backs, edged with black and bordered on each side by a conspicuous whitish to beige dorsolateral stripe that begins on nose and extends over the eye and back alongside body onto the tail. A second pale stripe, starting on upper jaw, occurs low on each side and is separated from the first by a broad dark brown or black band originating on the side of head and usually extending well out onto the tail, though this band can be disrupted if the tail is lost and regrown. Juvenile skink's tails are bright blue, turning to grey in adulthood. In the breeding season reddish or orange color appears on the side of head and chin, and occasionally on the sides, tip, and underside of the tail. They usually have seven supralabial scales and four enlarged nuchals. Young skinks' colorations are more vivid than those of adults.[9]\nWestern skinks can be found from southern British Columbia, Canada, to the tip of the Baja California Peninsula, and throughout most of Great Basin to extreme Northern Arizona; central Utah to the Pacific Coast. The species is apparently absent from the floor of San Joaquin Valley (they have been observed in rural areas of southeast Lodi, CA), central Sierra Nevada (except a few scattered locations in the foothills where they are very common), and lowland deserts of California. In Northern Baja, California the species occurs in the northwestern part at least as far south as Colonia Guerro and in the south in the cape and Comondu regions, Santa Agueda, and San Francisco de la Sierra. On Santa Catalina, Los Coronados, and Todos Santos Island off the coast of California.[9]\nDefensive behavior[edit]\nYoung western skinks have a bright blue tail with color that fades with age. Skinks can perform autotomy; if seized by a predator its tail is deliberately cast and wriggles violently attracting attention while the lizard may escape.[9] The tail will grow back with time but is often darker in color and misshapen. It will play dead, but this behavior is rarely seen.\nThis skink is diurnal during the period of warm-season activity. During summer most activity is concentrated in the morning and late afternoon. Where summer temperatures are not extreme, activity extends throughout the day. Adult skinks usually become inactive by early fall but juveniles extend their period of activity several weeks.\nThe reproductive season for this species varies geographically and from year to year depending on local conditions. Mating probably occurs in the spring soon after emergence. Males turn orange on the underside when they are breeding. Females lay 2\u20136 eggs during June and July. Western skink females construct nest chambers that are several centimeters deep in loose moist soil. Typically these chambers are located under surface objects, especially flat stones, logs, and sometimes in or near rock outcrops.[4]\nYoung western skinks probably hatch in late summer, and sexual maturity may occur at 2 years of age, but most individuals probably do not reproduce until they are 3 years old. Western skinks can reach an age of up to 10 years.\n^ Hammerson, G.A. & Hollingsworth, B. (2007). \"Plestiodon skiltonianus\". The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

The HC ordered that in case the government decided to scrap the project, a 72-hour notice shall be given to the progressive farmers' association.\nThe farmers had pleaded that the Punjab government had issued them allotment letters for setting up solar power plants but was now dithering.\nThey alleged that the Punjab Energy Development Authority (PEDA) deceived 280 farmers, who were short-listed for establishing solar power plants to generate 500 megawatt (MW) of electricity. The energy was to be purchased by the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) at rates varying from Rs 6.25 to Rs 6.99 per unit.\nIn June 2015, the PEDA, through advertisement sought expression of interest from the farmers to set up solar power plants at their respective villages. It was offered that a single farmer would be allowed to generate minimum of 1 MW to maximum of 2.5 MW of electricity. Each megawatt of electricity from the solar system involved a cost of Rs 6 to Rs 7 crore.\nTags : Renewable, Punjab Energy Development Authority, PEDA",

        "raw_content": "The NHS Trust Development Authority should develop a rigorous process for the assessment as well as the support of potential applicants for Foundation Trust status. The assessment must include as a priority focus a review of the standard of service delivered to patients, and the sustainability of a service at the required standard.\nThe focus of the NHS Trust Development Authority is to enable NHS trusts to provide high quality, sustainable services for their local communities. It does this by overseeing all aspects of a trust board\u2019s performance on delivering high quality care and supporting them to become sustainable organisations, thereby preparing them to become a foundation trust. The board of the NHS Trust Development Authority will only approve a trust\u2019s application to be passed to Monitor, when it is satisfied that the trust has clearly demonstrated both these aspects.\nThe NHS Trust Development Authority has set out its rigorous process for assessing aspirant foundation trusts in its accountability framework, Delivering High Quality Care For All. There will be a comprehensive inspection by the Care Quality Commission of the quality of services delivered by an aspirant foundation trust, as well as the quality governance arrangements within a trust, prior to any decision by the Board of the NHS Trust Development Authority as to whether a foundation trust application will be supported. No provider will go forward for foundation trust authorisation unless the Care Quality Commission, through its Chief Inspector of Hospitals, judges that the quality of their services is \u2018good\u2019 or \u2018outstanding\u2019.\nNHS Trusts are now required to produce 5-year strategic plans. Trusts will only have their Foundation Trust applications approved by the NHS Trust Development Authority Board if they are able to demonstrate their sustainability in the long-term, as well as achieving a \u2018good\u2019 or \u2018outstanding\u2019 rating.",

        "raw_content": "Strong and fierce as they are on the court, the Vietnamese women\u2019s volleyballers are very feminine and gentle in real life. They, either the 17-year-old girls who are still perfecting themselves or the \u201cveterans\u201d at the age of 36 with abundant experience, still always maintain the beauty of Vietnamese women.\nDang Thu Huyen, the talented hitter of the Vietinbank club\nThe captain aged just 16\nIn 2018, Vietnamese volleyball witnessed a strong expertise breakthrough made by setter Dang Thu Huyen. Despite her young age of 16, the hitter of the Vietinbank club was appointed as the captain of Vietnam\u2019s U19 women\u2019s volleyball team at the Asian U19 Championship.\nTwo years earlier, the 1.75m tall player from Hanoi\u2019s Thuong Tin district had created a real \u201cfever\u201d thanks to her smart playstyle and pure beauty on her professional debut.\nDang Thu Huyen started practising volleyball at the age of 11. After only one year, she was called up to the youth team of the LienVietPostBank club to compete in the national championship.\nAt the age of 14, Huyen joined her Vietnam U19 teammates to win the silver medal at the Southeast Asian U19 Championship and claim fourth place in the 2016 Asian U19 Championship, before attending the 2017 VTV Cup tournament as a member of Vietnam\u2019s youth team.\nParticularly, although she was the youngest in the Vietnamese team at the 2018 Asian U19 Championship, Huyen always stood out and fought bravely whenever featured on the court, with a captain\u2019s armband.\nMany people once advised Huyen to pursue a job as a model or set a foothold in Vietnamese showbiz, but the 2002-born girl still affirmed: \u201cPlaying volleyball is a dream since my childhood, and thus far, as a young player, I am always self-aware of having to learn from the seniors not only in expertise but also in the way of life in order to perfect myself\u201d.\n\u201cI play volleyball, not join in a beauty pageant\u201d\n2018 also marked a sparkling milestone for Dang Thi Kim Thanh, as the beautiful volleyballer from Long An province not only succeeded at the club level, but also shined brightly in the national team.\nIn particular, at the VTV International Women\u2019s Volleyball Cup last August, Dang Thi Kim Thanh overcame many heavyweights to be crowned Miss VTV Cup, a title presented to the most beautiful player of the competition.\nKim Thanh applied for trainer Luong Nguyen Ngoc Hien\u2019s volleyball class for the gifted from an early stage. When she reached the age of 14, she was officially summoned to the Vietnam youth team.\nEntering her second year playing for the first team of the VTV Binh Dien Long An club, Kim Thanh, possessing an impressive height of 1.78m, was able to play well in both the \u201chitter\u201d and \u201csetter\u201d positions, and is one of the best volleyball passers of Vietnam\u2019s women\u2019s volleyball at present.\nThat miss beauty is so strange. She rarely does makeup. The rusticity and cuteness of Kim Thanh have made her always sociable. Thanh wants everyone to remember her as an excellent athlete, not by the title of beauty. \u201cPlease call me athlete Kim Thanh, I play sports but do not want join a beauty contest,\u201d Thanh shared.\nIt seemed to everyone that she had turned to training work, but a few months ago, the beautiful passer of the Vietinbank club, Pham Kim Hue, suddenly rushed back into practising volleyball again.\nTo prepare for her return, Kim Hue has spent a few hours on fitness exercises every day. As an athlete with amazing qualities, the former miss beauty of Vietnamese volleyball has overcome difficulties to catch up with the high training intensity.\n\u201cGenerally speaking, I have nothing to worry about, I am just a little upset as many people think that I take the place of young athletes\u201d. But Hue\u2019s return holds many meanings, not merely playing on the field.\n\u201cNever before has the team fallen into a shortage of forces as at present, with 5-6 key pillars being unable to play due to various reasons (pregnancy, injury, moving to other clubs). From the beginning of the year, I was determined to focus on the training career, but encouraged by the club leaders and supported by my family, I have decided to return to help the club,\u201d explained Hue.\nIn addition to her passion and love for volleyball, it is also a sense of responsibility of one of the monuments of Vietnamese volleyball.\nKim Thanh wins Miss VTV Volleyball award\nDang Thu Huyen, VTV Cup, Dang Thi Kim Thanh, Women\u2019s Volleyball Cup, Miss VTV Cup",

        "raw_content": "Germany: Snap vote German lawmakers to vote on same-sex marriage\nGerman lawmakers will decide Friday whether to legalize same-sex marriage, according to CNN affiliate NTV. The snap vote comes after Chancellor Angela Merkel said Monday that she would like to see parliament move towards a \"vote of conscience\" on the issue.\nFollowing Merkel's comments, German politicians writing on Twitter called for a vote to be held as soon as possible. Martin Schulz, leader of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) -- the second largest party in parliament -- called for parliament not to wait until after the federal election in September. \"We will push through marriage equality in Germany,\" he tweeted. \"This week.\"\nThe vote is likely to pass with strong support from other German parties and from some lawmakers within Merkel's CDU. Volker Kauder, leader of the parliamentary group of the ruling CDU faction, called Tuesday for CDU members voting for and against the law to show respect for each other's position, according to NTV. But he also warned that such a sudden vote could lead to a \"hasty decision.\"\nMerkel's comments on Monday represent a shift for the German leader and her conservative party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which has opposed same-sex marriage to keep in line with \"traditional\" family values. The Chancellor made the comments in response to a question Monday evening at an event in Berlin hosted by women's magazine Brigitte. Asked by a gay man in the audience whether he would be able to refer to his partner as \"my husband,\" Merkel acknowledged the widespread support for gay marriage among German voters -- who will vote soon in federal elections -- and suggested a free vote on same-sex marriage could be held among members of parliament.

        "raw_content": "Challenging the Freshman Writer: Integrating Process and Product in a Course-Long Assignment.\nLovas, John C.\nA community college composition instructor with 32 years of teaching experience designed a semester-long writing assignment (developed at De Anza College (California) and also used at University of California, Berkeley) in which students compose a personal intellectual history. The assignment is based on several assumptions, including: (1) writing tasks that vary audience, purpose, point of view, and tone are most effective; (2) all writers write best what they know best; and (3) publication is the most \"natural\" way for students to value the conventions of written English. About the second week of the term, students develop a series of lists of five (the five most important people in their lives, etc.) and write one important personal and one important professional goal. Students complete a planning document for their personal intellectual history in the fifth week, and submit a substantial draft (at six pages long) in the seventh week. Students discuss the draft with the instructor and then submit the final 10-page paper (in both hard copy and on diskette) at the beginning of the last week of classes. The papers were \"published\" as is, which gave students an incentive to take pains with editing. Anecdotal information indicates that this assignment has impacts on many students unlike any other they have done. The fact that the essay becomes so important to most of the students makes the course and the work more important to the instructor. (A variety of samples of students writing from throughout the semester is attached.)

Report to the Chairman, Committee on Armed Services, House of Representatives.\nGeneral Accounting Office, Washington, DC. Information Management and Technology Div.\nHigh-performance computing refers to the use of advanced computing technologies to solve highly complex problems in the shortest possible time. The federal High Performance Computing and Communications Initiative of the Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) attempts to accelerate availability and use of high performance computers and networks. The House Armed Services Committee asked the General Accounting Office (GAO) to assess this program, particularly the agency's distribution of advanced computers to research sites, its interaction with the research community, and the balance between hardware and software. Interviews with agency and industry representatives and a review of documents were conducted. Results indicate that the ARPA has fostered significant advances, but with several shortcomings. Placing of new computers has focused on just a few machines. Limited interactions with the technical community may be hindering progress toward ambitious program goals. Much progress has been made in hardware development, but software remains too primitive to make massively parallel processing systems useful. Recommendations for improvement are presented. Four appendixes provide details about methodology, placement of machines, and project selection, and list contributors to the report. Five tables contain study findings, and two figures illustrate computer applications and product selection.

Identifying variables that may decrease alumni contributions is important because decreased state funding for higher education institutions and increased costs of maintaining higher education infrastructure have created growing demand for alternative means of funding. The scope of this study included 54 public and private college and universities in the states of Arkansas, Arizona, Louisiana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah. The collection of archival data from the Council for Aid to Education VSE databases provided data for this study. The variable under consideration is the effect of current macroeconomic recessions that occurred from 2000 to 2010 on alumni contributions to their respective colleges and universities. In addition, the application of contributions received (if any) to sustaining programs or capital programs were also considered. The study concluded that there is no significant difference among the mean total alumni donations given in the years 2000, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2009. It is further concluded that there is no significant interaction between the year of alumni donations and the school category (public or private). Additionally, it is concluded there is no significant difference between the alumni donations to operating funds in public (non-secular) versus private (non-secular) universities.

This article focuses on supporting the presence and participation of people with disabilities and their families in their faith communities (i.e., congregational inclusion). The authors examined the needs and experiences of these families--as well as the responses of congregations--in a study exploring 433 parents' views regarding the helpfulness and availability of 14 congregation-provided supports, selected indicators of congregational inclusion, and their associations with various child, family, and congregation factors. Findings from this study inform efforts by congregations and professionals to effectively support the involvement of families and highlight potential areas for future research and practice at the intersection of faith and disability.\nDescriptors: Inclusion, Developmental Disabilities, Religious Organizations, Religious Cultural Groups, Parent Attitudes, Social Support Groups, Caregiver Attitudes, Measures (Individuals), Likert Scales, Performance Factors, Special Education, Family Programs, Church Programs, Parent Participation, Parent Surveys",

The extant literature is rich in descriptions of barriers that women encounter while on the tenure track. This study was designed to focus on the environment of one large, public, high research university to determine the types of environmental barriers that exist that affect women. Of interest to the researchers was whether the barriers identified can be attributed to the culture and climate of academe in general or are institution centric. To examine these barriers, this study was guided by one research question, framed by the perceptions and experiences of women on the tenure track at the study institution, which focused on the identification of environmental barriers that women encountered. This mixed method study identified environment barriers that were categorized into the four areas of work environment, assistance, policy, and genderedness and socialization. The results of the study support the national research discussions that the tenure process is flawed and ambiguous, and further emphasize that though the barriers are known to exist, universities continue to be slow to address them. The findings of the study need to be analyzed with caution due to it being conducted at one university, but the response rate of the participants supports that women seeking tenure at this institution want to discuss their perceptions and experiences of the process.\nDescriptors: Women Faculty, Tenure, Mixed Methods Research, Barriers, Classification, Gender Differences, Organizational Climate, Research Universities, Females, Teacher Attitudes, Socialization, Work Environment, Faculty Promotion, Guidelines, Online Surveys",

        "raw_content": "The book \u201cthe way to peace \u201coutlines concept of a realistic vision of peace and peacemaking, it is asocial ethical exploration of the roots of violence and peace, it also combines moral wisdom and prophetic realism. According to James Childs in his book \u201cTHE WAY OF PEACE\u201d amongst other topics talks he illustrates the root cause of violence and peace. According to him, if we can explore the origin of the conflict between Israel and Palestine does then will get the roots of the violence and the peacemaking efforts that have been made so far. The war between Palestine\u2019s and the Israeli has been for many years. In the last sixty two years Israel has celebrated its independence while Palestinians on the other hand marked the flip side of the celebration, that terrible anniversary of Al Nakba. Childs categorically reflects statement of which The Israeli president Simon Peres told the families of the fallen Israeli soldiers in a speech during this celebration of their independence \u201cOn this blessed occasion, I want to say in the name of the state of Israel at large: We don\u2019t seek war,\u201d He also stated in an effort to bring peace and may finally end the war, \u201cWe are a nation that yearns for peace\u201d. On the other hand Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu also moved his crowd with his warm and sticky notions of peace,\u201d not a day has passed (since the two wars of 1948 and 1967) on which Israel did not extend its hand in peace to its neighbors, and our hand is still outstretched.\u201d\nAmerica is also is very much involved in ensuring that peace brought back and the Arab-Israeli peace is comes to an end. Negotiations are still on the table and the President Osama is still on the forefront in making sure that the peace deals do go through. Jones who is also Barrack Osama\u2019s national security advisor addressed all leaders in the Middle East and suggested that all sides take political risks to break the current deadlock. He said and I quote \u201cit\u2019s time for all leaders in the region \u2013 Israel, Palestine ,and Arab- to support efforts for peace \u201cExamples of leaders who fought to ensure that peace came to the middle east area :Anwar Sadat who signed the camp David peace accords with Israel but was assassinated in1981,Rabin Yitzhak who signed the Oslo accords with Palestinians was shot dead by an Israeli extremist in 1995, King Hussein died of cancer in 1999 .The church has also played a big role in helping in the peace efforts, the head of the world council of churches has expressed dismay at a recent Israeli military order redefining the notion of \u201cinfiltration\u201d in the occupied Palestinian territories. The Rev Dr Olav Fykse Tveit says he is \u201cworried the new measures will be a severe obstacle toward the process for a just peace.\u201d This proves that the church has made their presence known in the process to help bring back peace in this war which in to the church is a ministry to God and the savior Jesus. The General Secretary of the World Council of churches underlined how \u201cour prophetic witness needs to be expressed through our love for the Palestinians as well as for the Israelis \u201cas all parties need healing and reconciliation.\nTaking us back to debates from 1960s and 70s between the late Martin Luther King and Malcolm X about the use of violence or nonviolence in the struggle for civil rights, king demanded change through non violence while Malcolm believed that change should come through all means necessary. This was the time of slavery and discrimination. Malcolm believed in the idea that all man \u201cBlack, White, and colored are equal\u201d this also implies that the idea of Childs did go far as kings and Malcolm\u2019s time where war was absent but the social injustice experienced by the black people was lack of peace since it implied that this they did not go on with their work with a peace of mind and restrictions were everywhere when it came to certain races of people (Ironside, 1940). Luther\u2019s beliefs were guided by the church and believed in reaching his goal without having to into war. His idea of peace leaves on until now and his legacy lives on in many of us.\n\"Last Child in the Woods\"",

        "raw_content": "Engineers detail bird feather properties that could lead to better adhesives (and aerospace materials)\nIMAGE: You may have seen a kid play with a feather, or you may have played with one yourself: Running a hand along a feather's barbs and watching as the feather... view more\nCredit: University of California San Diego\nYou may have seen a kid play with a feather, or you may have played with one yourself: Running a hand along a feather's barbs and watching as the feather unzips and zips, seeming to miraculously pull itself back together.\nThat \"magical\" zipping mechanism could provide a model for new adhesives and new aerospace materials, according to engineers at the University of California San Diego. They detail their findings in the Jan. 16 issue of Science Advances in a paper titled \"Scaling of bird wings and feathers for efficient flight.\"\nResearcher Tarah Sullivan, who earned a Ph.D. in materials science from the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego, is the first in about two decades to take a detailed look at the general structure of bird feathers (without focusing on a specific species). She 3D-printed structures that mimic the feathers' vanes, barbs and barbules to better understand their properties--for example, how the underside of a feather can capture air for lift, while the top of the feather can block air out when gravity needs to take over.\nSullivan found that barbules-- the smaller, hook-like structures that connect feather barbs-- are spaced within 8 to 16 micrometers of one another in all birds, from the hummingbird to the condor. This suggests that the spacing is an important property for flight.\n\"The first time I saw feather barbules under the microscope I was in awe of their design: intricate, beautiful and functional,\" she said. \"As we studied feathers across many species it was amazing to find that despite the enormous differences in size of birds, barbules spacing was constant.\"\nSullivan believes studying the vane-barb-barbule structure further could lead to the development of new materials for aerospace applications, and to new adhesives--think Velcro and its barbs. She built prototypes to prove her point, which she will discuss in a follow up paper. \"We believe that these structures could serve as inspiration for an interlocking one-directional adhesive or a material with directionally tailored permeability,\" she said.\nSullivan, who is part of the research group of Marc Meyers, a professor in the Departments of Nanoengineering and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at UC San Diego, also studied the bones found in bird wings. Like many of her predecessors, she found that the humerus-- the long bone in the wing-- is bigger than expected. But she went a step further: using mechanics equations, she was able to show why that is. She found that because bird bone strength is limited, it can't scale up proportionally with the bird's weight. Instead it needs to grow faster and be bigger to be strong enough to withstand the forces it is subject to in flight. T\nhis is known as allometry--the growth of certain parts of body at different rates than the body as a whole. The human brain is allometric: in children, it grows much faster than the rest of the body. By contrast, the human heart grows proportionally to the rest of the body--researchers call this isometry.\n\"Professor Eduard Arzt, our co-author from Saarland University in Germany, is an amateur pilot and became fascinated by the 'bird wing' problem. Together, we started doing allometric analyses on them and result is fascinating,\" said Meyers. \"This shows that the synergy of scientists from different backgrounds can produce wonderful new understanding.\"\nIoana Patringenaru\nipatrin@eng.ucsd.edu\nFeather Zipping and Unzipping (IMAGE)\n3D Printed Model of Barbs and Barbules in a Feather (IMAGE)\nSEM Image of Barbules in a Feather (IMAGE)\nhttps://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/pressrelease/feathers_better_than_velcro",

The plan will work on numerous fronts.\nUnder the new Green City plan, the city of Sacramento will witness the addition of hundreds of EVs -- electric cars and buses -- and charging stations. The plan essentially aims at building a support network for more sustainable transit, along with ascertaining the possibility of replicating the network in other US cities.\nAs part of the Green City plan, two car-sharing services -- Envoy and AAA-operated Gig -- will add hundreds of new electric cars to Sacramento. While a pair of Volkswagen\u2019s e-Golf cars and chargers will be made available by Envoy at 71 locations around the city; 260 Chevy Bolt free-floating units -- which can be picked up and parked anywhere -- will be added to the city\u2019s streets by Gig.\nMoreover, as per the plan, a pair of new zero-emission electric bus lines will also be rolled out in Sacramento; and 10 EV charging stations will be deployed in the city. The charging stations will have 3-10 chargers per site, and will offer super-fast 350kW charging.\nNew California regulation could deny Tesla buyers access to Clean Vehicle Rebate\nDun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council to provide EV charge points at street lights\nCalifornia, New York and New Jersey announce $1.3 billion spending Charging Infrastructure",

In ego-speak, to be \u201ctrue\u201d to your mate or friend is to be true to his or her ego, and untrue to his or her soul \u2014 because everyone knows that the soul of any person is hurt by avoidance, denial, and collusion.\nTo be spiritually true to them is to be the opposite: to be honest with the person about things that matter, even if they resist being honest about those things; to bring up things they need to hear, even if they don\u2019t want to hear them; to be conscious around a person who very much wants unconscious companionship. 1\nNon-examined people focus on themselves and what they want, wish or desire regardless of what is demonstrable in the truth of reality.

        "raw_content": "White House, committee spar over acquisition workforce training funds\nThe Obama administration does not want Congress to cut funds for Defense Department acquisition employees' training.\nThe administration opposes a House committee\u2019s proposal to reduce funding for the Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund, cutting it nearly in half compared to fiscal 2012\u2019s appropriation.\nThe fund is a key tool for the Defense Department to alleviate some of the long-standing challenges associated with training the acquisition workforce. It also provides additional funds for the recruitment, training, and retention of acquisition personnel. DOD expects to use the fund's money to hire approximately 10,000 new acquisition personnel through fiscal 2015. Approximately $1.8 billion was allocated to the fund through February 2012, according to a recent Government Accountability Office report.\nThe House Appropriations Committee recommended $50.2 million for the fund in fiscal 2013, according to the Defense Department Appropriations Act (H.R. 5856).\nIn fiscal 2012, Congress gave the fund $106 million, and the president requested $274.2 million for 2013.\nIf Congress doesn\u2019t provide the full request of $274 million, administration officials warn that DOD would have to collect from other budgets to account for the shortfall between the appropriation and the statutory minimum for the development fund.\n\u201cThe reduction in the appropriation would put unnecessary stress on the operation and maintenance budget at a time when funding levels are already constrained,\u201d administration officials wrote June 28 in a statement of administration policy regarding the spending bill.\nThe bill has not been passed by the House yet.\nThe Appropriations Committee said the president\u2019s budget request would meet the statutory $944 million level, but defense representatives do not believe that DOD needs that amount of funding to achieve the fund\u2019s goals next year. As a result, the committee doesn\u2019t want to put so much appropriated money into the fund.\nCongress\u2019 conference report on the fiscal 2012 Consolidated Appropriations Act warned the funding would go down for the development fund because of unobligated balances that have sat in the fund for the past several years.\nFund managers told GAO though the delays in collecting and then distributing the development fund's money caused uncertainties. That sense of ambiguity, along with revisions on how officials would use the money, prevented large sums from being spent and instead carried over to the next fiscal year.",

        "raw_content": "Chris Evans has announced he will be leaving the Radio 2 breakfast show after eight years at the helm, and 13 years at the station.\n\"I'm going to leave. I'm leaving Radio 2,\" he told listeners, but promised he'd stay on air until Christmas.\nExplaining the decision, he said: \"Some of us are mountain climbers [but] if you get to the top of your favourite mountain and you stay there, you become an observer.\n\"I want to keep climbing.\"\nAfter the announcement, he played The Beatles' Twist and Shout, adding: \"You have to keep shaking it up.\"\nHe later confirmed he was leaving Radio 2 to host Virgin Radio's breakfast show.\nEvans took over from Sir Terry Wogan in 2010, and the breakfast show regularly attracts 9m listeners - more than any other UK radio programme.\nHe is currently the second highest-paid star at the BBC, earning \u00a31.6 million per year.\nThe star and his wife Natasha are currently expecting twins; and he said his decision to change jobs had been \"big news in our house over the past few weeks and months\".\nHe admitted he'd been deliberating the decision for a year.\n\"A few weeks ago I made my mind up for sure,\" he said, adding he wanted to \"start up on a brand new adventure\".\nSpeaking to Father Brian D'Arcy, who was delivering Monday's Pause for Thought, Evans said: \"As Sir Terry [Wogan] said: there's never a right time to go, but there could be a wrong time to go.\"\n'Loved every second'\nEvans first joined Radio 2 in September 2005 as the host of the Saturday afternoon show, moving to drive time in April 2006 and the breakfast show in January 2010.\nDuring that time, he has also presented The One Show and the poorly-received relaunch of Top Gear following in 2016.\nBut it is his radio show, with its warm and energetic mix of interviews, music and trivia, where the broadcaster truly excelled, creating a familial atmosphere with segments like Kids Get a Fanfare and Listener Breaking News.\nThe children's writing competition 500 Words will remain part of the breakfast show after his departure, Evans said.\nMore from Chris on today's news... pic.twitter.com/SUwC9WSliR\n\u2014 BBC Radio 2 (@BBCRadio2) September 3, 2018\nWhen is Chris Evans leaving?\nThe broadcaster revealed his decision shortly after 8:00 BST, after hinting at a \"big announcement\" throughout his Monday morning show.\nThe 52-year-old said he had \"loved every second\" of presenting the breakfast programme, but \"I don't want this to be it\".\nHe added that his final scheduled show was on Friday 21 December - but he'd like to bow out with a Christmas Eve special.\nVirgin Radio has confirmed Evans will be waking up the nation on its radio station in the new year - although no official start date has been given.\nEvans formerly hosted the breakfast show on the first incarnation of Virgin Radio - which went on to become Absolute Radio - between 1997 and 2001.\nVirgin Radio UK, which was launched two years ago, is a digital-only station with around 400,000 weekly listeners, compared to Radio 2's figure of 15 million.\nSpeaking about his new appointment, Evans said: \"In many ways Virgin Radio is my spiritual home. I see nothing but exciting and groundbreaking opportunities ahead. In a medium that is changing so quickly on a daily basis, the potential for growth is unprecedented.\n\"Our plan is to give it all we've got, see where we can get to and have the most possible fun along the way. It makes me smile every time I think about it.\"\nRichard Branson tweeted his happiness at the announcement of Evans' new post welcoming the star \"back where he belongs on Virgin Radio\".\nWho will take over on Radio 2?\nAlthough it is too early for his successor to be announced, Evans wished them well.\n\"Whoever takes over this show, good for you because it's the best. It's the best.\"\nFellow Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball, who could be in the running for the slot, was among the first to react to his departure.\nOther Radio 2 names who could replace the star include Sara Cox and Simon Mayo.\nIn a statement, BBC director general Tony Hall said: \"Chris has been an absolutely first class presenter of the Breakfast Show. He has brought both warmth and a genuine insight into what listeners want.\n\"He has given 100 percent to each of his BBC projects, including raising millions of pounds for Children in Need. I'd like to thank him for all his efforts over the years and wish him all the best for the future.\"\n\"My prediction is it will probably be a female broadcaster,\" said Tony Blackburn, a former host of Radio 1's breakfast show.\n\"Whoever takes it over will have quite a job on their hands,\" he told BBC news. \"The breakfast show is the most important show of the day.\"\nOther broadcasters reacted with surprise to Evans' announcement.",

        "raw_content": "Occasional summaries of things that irritate or enthuse me!\nSunday 9th February\u2013More storms\nLast night the wind rattled the windows all night, I have never known anything like it and it made for a disturbed sleep yet again.\nThe only good thing I have seen in the news, about these storms, is that someone in the Met Office has announced that they are linked to global warming and climate changes \u2013 not before time, there are still too many people unwilling to accept these changes are man-made. Perhaps even worse for this country is the fact that the current disaster has now become a party political agenda and all we are likely to see for the next few months are the two main parties facing-off against each other to gain political points before the next election! This is the opposite of what we need and, instead of bleating on about the cost and whose fault it is that there has been a lack of investment, what we need is a clear cross-party proposal to plan for water management (a plan that everyone can understand and accept the reasoning behind) and a political agreement to see the cost as an investment in the future and an opportunity not a burden. The plan should detail the cost of possible further flooding and storm damage so that people can also understand the cost of doing nothing, but even more important is that communities should see how they can help and how funding can rescue them from the current disaster \u2013 this is an opportunity for everyone to work together. A part of this plan should include insurance coverage and the government must ensure people are protected from excessive premiums. It really is a chance for all political parties, utility companies, local government and communities to work together to meet this challenge and an opportunity for the political parties to show that they can be trusted to look beyond a singe parliamentary term.\nOkay that is my rant for the day!\nLeave a comment Posted in Commentary, Diary Tagged Communication, Diary, Politics, Weather\nTime to play politics\nIt was interesting to hear the UK Prime-Minister, yesterday, indicating he wanted to support pensioners (who represent the most significant voting group in the UK) and, unsurprisingly, that a similar spin came from the Opposition. So, the politicians are focussed on next year\u2019s election and there will no doubt be a series of short-term initiatives over the coming months. This initiative was closely followed by an economic \u201cdoom and gloom\u201d speech from The Chancellor, who indicated lots of budget cuts following the next election (I am not sure that tactic will win votes though) and, in the meantime, most of the country is floundering though some of the wettest weather any winter has brought us!\nAs one of the voters who the politicians are \u201cchasing\u201d I find the current views on what amount to important political issues very strange. There is no doubt in my mind that the weather systems of the world are starting to change (as predicted by those who have described the effects of global warming) and that the adverse weather we have seen recently will get worse, but the politicians do nothing to address this issue. This is a classic symptom of short-term thinking that governments are driven to by the nature of the five-year term (something that led previous governments to ignore the problem of pensions for the baby boom generation). It is clear that storm damage is already affecting the economy and that if things go on as they have been for the last few weeks that the total cost will escalate. This is a classic case of a need for a long-term scheme to improve infrastructure. It is no good the Prime Minister pushing blame, and who should provide solutions, toward local government, the problem of the impact of global warming needs to be addressed in many ways and one of these is to improve water management \u2013 this means solve issues of flooding as well as improving long term storage issues. This would represent an ideal opportunity for industry (the Water Companies) and Government to work together over a twenty year period. This would also be an unusual political gamble that would require the usual opposite views to be put aside and the main political parties to agree to discuss details in a constructive manner \u2013 something that I think might encourage young voters to vote!\nSo, stop trying to woo voters with short-term offers that have little or no real value and start to look like a truly altruistic Government. Bring the Opposition on board with the aim of creating a mechanism for long-term schemes to be financed properly and I for one might change the way I vote! Invest in the infrastructure of the country and strengthen the economy through jobs and reduce the impact of disasters.\nLeave a comment Posted in Commentary Tagged Communication, Flooding, Government, Infrastructure, Weather\nTV sound balance \u2013 a bit of a whinge\nI watch TV using Sky, but I cannot believe the problem I am hearing is their fault, it is that between programmes, on many if not most channels, the sound balance changes dramatically. Advertisements seem to be the worst and are much louder than the sound level used in the programme, but also station announcements about forthcoming programmes are also far too loud. This problem is really pronounced when listening to a film, any advertisements during the break are so loud we have to turn the sound level down to hear ourselves think.\nI have noticed this problem developing over the last few years (and I am not the only one to notice) and it first started to manifest itself as music that was too loud during speech passages in a variety of TV shows (I really noticed in Dr Who). I assumed that a new generation of sound engineers were learning their trade, but it continued! It is also happening on imported TV shows, so this is a problem worldwide, but why?\nSurely it is not so difficult for sound engineers to monitor the sound levels during a programme and balance the transmitted levels when they have announcements between programmes. I have software that does this for music, so it cannot be that difficult.\nLeave a comment Posted in Commentary Tagged Advertisements, Communication, Loudness, Sound, TV\nWho owns science\nYou might think that this is a simple question with a simple answer, but the truth is far from simple and this subject led to a very lengthy debate the last time I raised it with my colleagues. However, before we get to the subject a simple definition or two are needed:\nScience \u2013 what I mean by science is \u201cexperimental-based discovery science\u201d of the type that is carried out in Universities. I do not mean industry-funded science, or research that involves review of a subject. Pure research, carried out for the sake of interest is often known as \u201cblue-skies\u201d research, but it can often lead to unexpected commercial outcomes.\nOwnership of science \u2013 by own I really mean how accessible is scientific information as it is access to the science that defines ownership. I hope this will become more clear as I develop this blog!\nI guess before we get to ownership of science it is important to first explain how research is funded in the UK and how it is carried out in Universities:\nThere are a large number of funding sources available both in the UK and across Europe, of which the research councils and European research grants are the largest funders, but significant funding also comes from charities and from private sources. All of these types of funding are competitive and awarded to individual scientists, or groups of scientists who collaborate toward an overall goal.\nUniversities also receive direct funding of research from government, through the research councils, in the form of infrastructure awards (often based on how many research grants were awarded, but also on measured success of individual researchers). Sometimes, this funding is targeted at commercially-orientated research and sometimes at \u201cblue-skies\u201d research. In addition, there are various sources of infrastructure funding, to which universities can bid in a competitive way, in order to establish equipment or resources for research.\nFinally, individual researchers may have access to funds that allow small research projects to be initiated, that are either university-based or belong to the individual within the university\u2019s research framework (overheads and slush funds).\nEstablishing a research project:\nAny full-time employee at a university can apply for a research grant and carry out research; although, to get a competitive grant the individual usually needs an established research profile. However, it is often a surprise to those outside of the university system that carrying out research is not a contractual requirement for a university employee, but simply something that is often expected or desired by the employer. So, academics do not have to apply for research grants and are not forced to do so \u2013 research usually springs from their own interests \u2013 and many academics only carry out teaching duties.\nThose that want to engage in a research project have two ways to start:\nJoin an existing research group and follow their own path within that research group.\nEstablish a new research group, seek external funding and hope to gain sufficient expertise to follow the first funding with further funding \u2013 often a difficult pathway.\nIt is generally accepted that the chances of obtaining funding from most sources is at best 1:5, so it may well take five applications to get one grant, but sometimes this process also means changing the details in the grant application and also looking to a different funding sources \u2013 becoming an established researcher is not easy and may require many hours of reading and writing! Sometimes support comes from the university in the way of PhD studentships, which lend a pair of hands to the process of obtaining enough results to add weight to an initial application. In addition, some funding sources include grants aimed at new researchers 9often young scientists at the beginning of their career).\nMeasuring Research Ability:\nIn this modern era, where every work-based activity is monitored for efficiency, science is no different and grants are only awarded to researchers who have a strong rating in what is known as the Research Excellence Framework (REF \u2013 previously known as, the Research Assessment Exercise or RAE). The award of externally-funded grants is a major part of this exercise, but the other major measurement of research excellence is publishing in peer-reviewed journals and this now brings us to our main subject as this is the first measure of access to science. Without easy access to published research it is impossible to write a successful research grant proposal.\nIt should be clear from what I have already said that access to published science is the start point for writing any grant application. Strangely, despite the fact that the researcher carries out the research, he does not necessary have access to even his own published work. This is a quirk from using publishing houses to print and distribute published science, but is also a trap created by the REF exercise where a main requirement is to publish in high-impact journals to improve the REF-rating. However, these high-impact journals are usually owned by the major publishing houses and the general method for publication means that copyright lies with the publishing houses. This problem of access to published science is compounded by the fact that the publishing houses restrict access to published papers unless you subscribe, in one form or another, to the journal! Recently, there has been a strong movement amongst scientists to change the way science is published, but this is still a problem area. Some grants include sufficient funds to pay for \u201copen-access\u201d research papers, but many do not. In fact, a good illustration of this problem is how difficult it is for the general public to access published science \u2013 without a library subscription to a number of journals, the cost would be prohibitive.\nIn summary, even the best scientists do not have immediate access to their own published work, at best they depend on their university library to purchase journals that enable such access and as such they do NOT own their own research! If they have used grant funds to publish in an open access journal then they will be able to read and access that paper, along with anyone else in the world, and therefore they will have \u201cbought\u201d ownership of their research.\nInvention, Patents and Ownership:\nOf course, publishing research papers is only one aspect of research, but it is the primary means by which research is disseminated and as a consequence a very important aspect of science. However, some research leads to invention and under the British patent system that is the primary mechanism for obtaining a patent. A patent allows release of details of the science, publication to the general public, but uses the \u201cstrong arm of the law\u201d to prevent the work being copied, allowing the inventor the right to commercial exploitation. If the research looks as though it may lead to commercialisation then a patent is a very important aspect for protecting the work and the ideas. Often a university will pay the costs of patent applications, but who owns the patent and who owns the research that led to it? There is no doubt that the researcher\u2019s input is an absolute requirement for the invention, but university employees (in the UK) are subject to a clause in their contract that states that any invention, arising from research at the university, will belong to the university! One argument that is used to support this situation is that without the university\u2019s infrastructure (especially high cost equipment) the invention might not be possible. So, a patent may have the inventor\u2019s name on the front, but ownership is the university\u2019s.\nSo, who really owns science? Well, it doesn\u2019t really seem that it is the researcher (in many cases they cannot even guarantee that they can read their own papers); although, there are often benefits that come the way of the researcher that make the work worthwhile (such as reduced teaching loads), but overall science is a hobby at work and the real benefits are simply your name on papers, grants and patents. this may be best illustrated by DNA sequencing, which is named after the scientist who developed the technique \u2013 Sanger sequencing \u2013 and despite his recent sad death, Fred Sanger\u2019s name will live on because of this. Very few scientists make money from their research, but it can be fun! However, there is a final aspect of all of this that should be the main thought of any budding scientist \u2013 RESEARCH IS OWNED BY SOCIETY \u2013 the benefits that come from research are unpredictable and varied, but the technological progress of recent years is one example of the benefits of good science and the description of the research should be freely available to everyone.\nLeave a comment Posted in Commentary Tagged Communication, Grants, Papers, Patents, Research, research grants, Science, Technology, Universities",

        "raw_content": "When I first came at the Fontys campus in Tilburg I felt immediately comfortable with the people around me. The atmosphere was good and the students made me feel happy with their enthusiastic attitude. The only problem, which I encountered, was the study itself. I always believed that I wanted to do something with fashion, but Fontys didn\u2019t offer that type of study. I was seeking for the same atmosphere at different campuses across the Netherlands, but I didn\u2019t find the right feeling. Then I heard about ILS, International Lifestyle Studies form a friend of mine. It\u2019s not a fashion study but it goes perfectly with my interests. Only the Fontys campus in Tilburg offers the study ILS. It was a confirmation for my school and study choice.\nTilburg is a small city in the Netherlands. The establishment of university and the Fontys campus makes Tilburg a real college town. During the weeks and in the weekends, the city offers a lot of events by night. So if you love to dance and to get a drink with your friends, Tilburg will be a good choice for you. Besides the night life, Tilburg got international stores, like the Zara, Pull & Bear and H&M. In the center of the city you can experience the Brabant fellowship. This fellowship is also noticeable at the Fontys Campus itself. Maybe you will be shocked by the honest- and the \u201cstraight to the point\u201d attitude we got in the Netherlands. Know, it\u2019s not because we are being rude it\u2019s only to be kind and to help each other.\nDon\u2019t be ashamed to ask questions about anything. Nothing is ordinary or stupid. When I became a student I had a lot of questions, which I didn\u2019t ask because I was ashamed. Please don\u2019t feel embarrassed and tell what your needs are so you can become comfortable with the Netherlands and the studies at on the Fontys campus. And don\u2019t worry were you drop the questions. If a person cannot help you he or she can make contact with other people, who will help you.\nI just want to emphasize that you are so welcome.\nStudy programme: International Lifestyle Studies\nContact Teddy",

        "title": "Meat\u2019s large water footprint: why raising livestock and poultry for meat is so resource-intensive \u2013 Food Tank",
        "raw_content": "Meat\u2019s large water footprint: why raising livestock and poultry for meat is so resource-intensive\nKai Olson-Sawyer\nSurprise and disbelief. That\u2019s what often follows when people learn about the large water footprint of many meat products.\nCommon responses include: \u201cReally?\u201d \u201cThat can\u2019t be right.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s ridiculous.\u201d\nShock is reasonable after discovering that the global average water footprint \u2013 or the total amount of water needed \u2013 to produce one pound of beef is 1,799 gallons of water; one pound of pork takes 576 gallons of water. As a comparison, the water footprint of soybeans is 216 gallons; corn is 108 gallons. (Compare more products here [US standard] and here [metric].)\nThe large water footprints for beef, pork and other meats indicate the large volumes of water used for their production. They also suggest a great use of resources beyond water. The question then becomes, why is raising livestock and poultry for meat so resource-intensive?\nThe answer is mainly based on the food that livestock eat. Here, the water footprint concept can provide some insight. What the water footprint reveals is the magnitude of water \u201chidden\u201d in meat as a tally of all the water consumed at the various steps during production. Better understanding meat\u2019s resource intensity necessitates a closer look at two crucial factors.\nThe first has to do with an animal\u2019s efficiency to turn its food into body mass known as feed conversion ratios (FCR) (i.e., identical units of feed to meat, so feed: meat). The range of FCRs is based on the type of animal, and according to Dr. Robert Lawrence of Johns Hopkins University, the ratios are approximately 7:1 for beef, 5:1 for pork and 2.5:1 for poultry. The larger the animal, the larger the percentage of that animal\u2019s body mass is inedible material like bone, skin and tissue. This is why beef conversion ratios are the highest and it takes exponentially less water and energy inputs to produce grains, beans and vegetables than meat. To be clear, raising a beef cow takes more resources because a typical beef cow in the US eats thousands of pounds of the above-listed corn and soybeans during its lifetime. Of course, the cultivation of field crops that are eventually fed to beef cattle require huge amounts of water, fertilizers, fuel to power farm machinery, land for farm fields and so forth. It all adds up.\nThe second reason for meat production\u2019s great resource intensity is due to its immense scale. Globally, there is a projected \u201cfood animal\u201d population of over 20 billion, more than twice that of the current seven billion humans the planet carries, with the animal count expected to rise along with human population growth. The animal production system expanding rapidly around the world is the industrialized concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFOs) model, the so-called \u201cconventional\u201d (and extremely problematic) American system developed in over the last 50 years or so. CAFOs are more efficient strictly in terms of more animals produced, faster animal growth and shorter meat-to-market times because huge numbers of animals are combined into one facility where they are fed grains (and growth promoters) before being butchered. The enormous quantity of feed given to large populations of livestock, poultry and even fish \u2013 consisting primarily of corn, soy and other grains \u2013 can also exact a heavy toll in terms of resources and external pollution because of the industrial production of these crops. So even though there are perceived economic efficiency gains due to scales of production, the sheer size of these operations \u2013 including industrially produced crops and their overreliance on fossil fuels and fertilizers \u2013 swamps those gains entirely in terms of real, absolute resource-use and pollution\nThat\u2019s why revealing the virtual water hidden in meat and explaining its resource-intensity matters; acknowledging the potential problems and limits can lay the groundwork for sensible, sustainable ways forward.\nRather than represent meat production in the abstract, this post brings forward the reality that meat eaten by many people every day has a concrete effect on resource use. Not only is meat resource-intensive, but the system of production, as in the CAFO model, also carries substantial environmental and human health problems rarely accounted for in the race to meet meat demand. Why does this matter? Because as the world gets smaller, owing to population growth, higher incomes and wider adoption of technology, there is a greater strain on resources\u2014a process in which meat is implicated.\nIn the end, people need to eat regardless of resource availability. Considering that meat does eat up vast amounts of resources, it seems that using it wisely (already crucial) will become even more so in the future. That\u2019s why revealing the virtual water hidden in meat and explaining its resource-intensity matters; acknowledging the potential problems and limits can lay the groundwork for sensible, sustainable ways forward. It also suggests that as feeding the world is a primary objective, humanity might be wise to alter our current trajectory of evermore meat produced industrially at any cost.\nKai Olson-Sawyer is a Senior Research and Policy Analyst in the GRACE Water and Energy Programs.

        "title": "Square Roots: The Urban Farming Accelerator Feeding Brooklyn Year-Round \u2013 Food Tank",
        "raw_content": "Square Roots Farmer-Entrepreneur Josh Aliber.\nThe company was co-founded by entrepreneurs Tobias Peggs and Kimbal Musk, who also runs two restaurant chains, with the dual goals of satisfying a demand for produce and training a new generation of entrepreneurial leaders who understand urban agriculture, local food systems, and the transparency and trust that personal relationships bring to food\nOver the course of a 13-month program, Square Roots\u2019 ten Resident Entrepreneurs run businesses at the accelerator\u2019s physical home while taking part in a curriculum of skill-based training, professional development, and experiential business learning. They work with hydroponic growing systems housed in old, repurposed shipping containers called Leafy Green Machines, sold by Freight Farms. Depending on crops and conditions, each container can yield up to 50 pounds of leafy greens per week while using only eight gallons of water a day, according to Freight Farms.\nThe entrepreneurs deliver fresh greens to consumers at 80 office locations in the city, sell specialty items through a number of retail channels, and work in direct partnership with restaurants. Square Roots shares 30 percent of the total revenue with the farmers, amounting to between US$30,000 and US$40,000 annually, according to co-founder and CEO Tobias Peggs.\n\u201cThe idea is: with the skills they acquire at Square Roots, and the experience they gain running a business, they can graduate confidently with the knowledge to set up all kinds of companies,\u201d says Peggs. \u201cThey might create hardware companies designing more efficient lights for urban farmers. Or software companies to better connect local farmers to consumers. Or value-add companies using locally grown basil to make pesto.\u201d\nPeggs attributes the company\u2019s recent success to two primary factors: the high efficiency of the production modules and the trust that the company has built with its customer base.\n\u201cBecause you are growing in three dimensions instead of two, you can get a lot of food from a tiny footprint,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd it\u2019s always in season indoors! Even if there\u2019s two feet of snow on the ground outside, we can create the perfect growing conditions inside.\u201d\nThe company\u2019s proximity to customers is an important element in building trust. \u201cAt Square Roots, we\u2019re literally in the same neighborhood as our customers,\u201d says Peggs. He also suggests that building trust requires intentional transparency. To that end, Square Roots elected to install big windows on the modules so that passersby could see how the food was being grown and hosts open house community events on the farm once a month for city residents to tour the farms, meet the farmers, taste the food, and engage in a question-and-answer session.\n\u201cThese notions of trust and transparency are baked into our values and into our product,\u201d says Peggs. \u201cIt\u2019s what people expect from modern food companies.\u201d\nAt the end of one year with the company, trainees pass off their fully-running farming businesses to the next season\u2019s entrepreneurs.\nBecause the farmer-entrepreneurs are only with the company for a year, the production modules are designed to be easy to understand and use, a significant difference from the knowledge intensity of traditional farming. Peggs doesn\u2019t go so far as to describe the modules as \u201cplug-and-play,\u201d though, explaining that the training program receives substantial support from Square Roots\u2019 head farmer Phil Cuddeback and from farming mentors who have worked at companies like Small Hold, Eden Works, Farm.One, and Gotham Greens\nTheir first cohort of ten entrepreneurs, which the company refers to as \u201cSeason 1,\u201d graduated at the end of October 2017. Four of them are in the process of starting their own businesses, two moved into roles at companies working in the urban agriculture space, two have been rehired by Square Roots to work on research and development efforts, and one is staying on for a second season of production at Square Roots\u2019 facility.\nSquare Roots raised US$5.4 million in funding in 2017 and aims to expand towards 20 cities by the year 2020.\nCategories: Food Tank, Innovation and Technology, Small-Scale Farming, Urban Agriculture\nTags: Entrepreneurs, Freight Farms, Hydroponics, indoor farming, Kimbal Musk, Musk, Square Roots, Tobias Peggs, urban agriculture",

        "raw_content": "Voice: If Islam Is a Religion of Violence, So Is Christianity If Islam Is a Religion of Violence, So Is Chr...\nIf Islam Is a Religion of Violence, So Is Christianity\nThe world\u2019s oldest religions all have troubling histories of bloodshed. Singling out Islam is just Trump\u2019s latest, hateful hypocrisy.\nAngel with a gun\nSpeaking after \u201cappreciating the congrats\u201d on the Orlando shootings, Donald Trump again insisted that what mowed people down at Pulse was not an assault rifle but radical Islam, because in Trump Tower, it cannot be both. Trump\u2019s world is binary. It is zero-sum: Either guns kill people or radical Islam kills people. In that world, only one religion can be bad, and so Christianity is good and Islam is bad. Christianity is peaceful and Islam violent. Christianity is tolerant and Islam intolerant. Both are inherently one thing or the other, immutable blueprints etched in stone for the behavior of their respective adherents.\nThis is a worldview that is shared by people who are Trump supporters and not Trump supporters. In the secular vernacular, we might call this view \u201cManichean,\u201d that is, a binary between light and darkness, good and evil.\nBut it\u2019s worth noting that \u201cManichean\u201d was originally used to describe a religion that spread from Persia to the eastern and northern African parts of the Roman Empire in the third century, one that influenced many early Christians. If the word \u201cManichean\u201d has negative connotations today, it might be because it was deemed a heresy by the early Catholic Church, one that needed to be ruthlessly rooted out of the Christian universe. And I mean ruthlessly: Adherents of a Manichean-tinged Christianity had their goods confiscated and were put to death, even if they converted to proper Christianity but still kept in touch with their Manichean contacts. Even St. Augustine called for their energetic persecution.\nThe reason I bring up the Manicheans is because I am tired of hearing, from Bill Maher and from Donald Trump, that Islam is inherently violent. I am even more tired of hearing that Christianity is inherently peaceful. I have witnessed this debate play out many times over, including at one dinner party when Laura Ingraham turned to the other guests and took a poll: Raise your hands if you think Islam is a death cult. Most of the (politically conservative) guests raised their hands and then took pains to explain to me how, unlike Islam, Christianity is inherently a religion of love.\nWith all due respect to my many Christian friends, I seriously beg to differ.\nConservatives roll their eyes when you mention the Crusades \u2014 oh, that old thing? \u2014 and I\u2019m sure they will when they see the reference to the Manicheans, but they both matter, especially if you\u2019re trying to argue that religions have inherent characteristics. If that was a perversion of Christianity, as many argue, or a fluke, then why can we not extend the same thinking toward, say, the Muslim conquests of the Middle East, or, dare I say it, the Islamic State? You cannot argue that one religion is inherently violent because of the following historical examples, and then wave away the violent history of Christianity and say the exception proves the rule.\nThe Crusades are still a sore subject in the Muslim world, but it\u2019s easy to forget the havoc they wreaked on the Jews of Europe. Time after time, as Crusaders slogged southeast on their umpteenth trip to the Holy Land, they slaughtered the Jews in their path. They herded them into synagogues and set the buildings alight. The Crusaders killed so many Jews in the name of their Christian faith that it was the most stunning demographic blow to European Jewry until the Holocaust. Which, just a friendly reminder, happened in Christian, civilized Europe only 70-some years ago.\nAnd if you don\u2019t believe me about the brutal repression of Manichean Christians, you can read about it here in the Catholic Encyclopedia (a publication that \u201cchronicles what Catholic artists, educators, poets, scientists and men of action have achieved in their several provinces\u201d). The Christian Church was ruthless with people whose faith was in any way a deviation from the canon, torturing and burning heretics at the stake. After Martin Luther pinned his theses to a church door, unintentionally spawning a new wing of Christianity, it led to hundreds of years of on-and-off religious warfare between Christians, spilling each other\u2019s blood in the fervent belief that their vision of Christ was the truest. And it\u2019s not ancient history: Violence between Protestants and Catholics continued in Christian Ireland until the very end of the 20th century.\n\u201cRadical Islam is anti-woman, anti-gay, and anti-American,\u201d Donald Trump said on Monday. \u201cI refuse to allow America to become a place where gay people, Christian people, and Jewish people are the targets of persecution and intimidation by radical Islamic preachers of hate and violence.\u201d\nThe point he was trying to make was that the adherents of radical Islam (whatever that is) are so uncomfortable with those who don\u2019t share their beliefs that they can\u2019t help but turn violent against them. Radical Islam may be all those things and more, but Christianity\u2019s record isn\u2019t much better.\nLet\u2019s take Trump\u2019s concern for Jewish people being \u201cthe targets of persecution and intimidation.\u201d It is a wonderful sentiment, but, for the past 2,000 years, until Muslim countries expelled their Jewish populations in 1948, Jews have been targets of persecution and intimidation \u2014 to put it mildly \u2014 at the hands of Christians. Jewish life in Muslim countries, though still saddled with all kinds of restrictions and orders to wear funny clothing and sporadic violence, was far less bloody than in the civilized Christian West. There are so many historical examples I could mention \u2014 Christians killing Jews because they blamed them for the plague; the fact that the word \u201cghetto\u201d comes from the enclosures in which Jews were forced to live in medieval Venice; the pogroms in which the Russian Orthodox Church encouraged their flocks to kill the non-believing Jews. If that\u2019s too far back in time for you, consider July 1988, the thousandth anniversary of the baptism of Russia: Rumors flew in Moscow that there would be a pogrom to celebrate the day Christianity came to Russia, and that the police were handing out addresses of Jews to the public. (That\u2019s when my family decided to flee Holy Rus.)\nAnd if you want to get a list of Christian countries that expelled the Jews but are daunted by the historical dust, look no further than the Trump supporters who regularly tweet those lists at me as proof that Jews deserve the violence they\u2019ve gotten over the years. Then there\u2019s the very modern phenomenon that is the Trump troll, frequently blasting me as a \u201cChrist killer\u201d who deserves anti-Semitism for \u201cmocking the Gospel.\u201d All this punctuated by exhortations to get back in the oven and people thoughtfully ordering coffins on my behalf.\nAnd though Trump\u2019s concern is for Jewish people being the subjects of persecution by \u201cradical Islamic preachers,\u201d it is not the radical Muslims I\u2019m worried about as a Jew living in America. There\u2019s plenty of hatred and anti-Semitism in the Muslim world, but the kind I receive around the clock doesn\u2019t come from Muslims. It comes from Trump\u2019s white, Christian supporters. I would much rather he address the persecution of Jewish journalists by his own followers, some of whom freely interweave Christian symbols, white power references, and violent threats in their communications. But Trump doesn\u2019t address them and he certainly doesn\u2019t disavow them. He said he has \u201cno message\u201d for them. Just for the radical Muslims.\nWatching Trump and the Christian right go after Islam for being homophobic is, frankly, jaw-dropping. If any community in this country has shown itself to be anti-gay, it is conservative Christians and their decades of peddling hatred for gay people, comparing homosexuality to pedophilia and bestiality, claiming AIDS is divine punishment, pushing \u201ccures\u201d for homosexuality, and blocking laws that prevent gays not just from marrying but from being discriminated against. A Christian pastor, who has enjoyed the company of Bobby Jindal, Mike Huckabee, and Ted Cruz, recently said that, according to the Bible, homosexuals \u201cdeserve the death penalty.\u201d Now the very same people who, just last month, were comparing trans people to predators who would use the wrong bathroom to hunt for child victims are suddenly lining up to defend gays from radical Islam.\nAnd yet, in the wake of the Orlando shooting, some Christians came out to say what they really thought of those gays in that club. One Christian preacher posted a video sermon in which he praised the Orlando shootings, saying, \u201cThe good news is that there\u2019s 50 less pedophiles in this world, because, you know, these homosexuals are a bunch of disgusting perverts and pedophiles.\u201d\nAnd then there are the ardent American Christians who explicitly link Christianity and guns, who buy up weapons like there\u2019s no tomorrow, but who nonetheless marvel at the warlike Saracens. In fact, the unbelievable vitriol with which conservative Christians have insisted on maligning not just radicals but an entire religion looks a lot like the kind of violence and intolerance of which they accuse Muslims.\nFriday will mark the one-year anniversary of Dylann Roof killing nine people in the middle of a Bible study in Charleston, S.C. Before his rampage, he wrote a manifesto declaring his allegiance to the white supremacist cause and pointing to the Council of Conservative Citizens, which claims to adhere to \u201cChristian beliefs and values,\u201d as a major source of information and inspiration. By some accounts, Roof came from a church-going family and attended Christian summer camp. Did Roof kill his fellow Christians because he was deranged or because Christianity is violent?\u201d\nThe answer is neither. They are not exceptions, nor do they speak to a violence inherent in Christianity. Because my point is not that Christianity is evil. It isn\u2019t. But neither is it inherently peaceful and loving. And neither is Islam. Nor Judaism nor Hinduism nor Buddhism. No religion is inherently peaceful or violent, nor is it inherently anything other than what its followers make it out to be. People are violent, and people can dress their violence up in any number of justifying causes that seek to relieve people of their personal responsibility because the cause or religion, be it Communism or Catholicism or Islam, is simply bigger than themselves. It\u2019s very convenient for both the perpetrator of violence and his accuser, and yet totally useless: Something can be done with a person who has transgressed, but what can you do with an amorphous concept?\nChristianity, as I have seen it practiced by my friends or by Christians who saved Jews during the Holocaust, can be beautiful and peaceful and loving. Islam, as it was practiced in medieval Spain, was beautiful and peaceful, too. It can also be hideous and violent, as we\u2019ve seen in many parts of the Middle East, in Europe, and in America in recent decades. Judaism, which people either equate with consumptive erudition or insularity, can wax violent, too. Hanukkah, every secular Jew\u2019s favorite holiday, celebrates in part the victory of the radical, purist Jews over their assimilated, Hellenized brethren. And for my co-religionists piling onto Muslims for their homophobia, let\u2019s remember Yishai Schlissel, who stabbed six at a gay pride parade in Jerusalem \u2014 and that was his second attack on the LGBT event. And, heck, let\u2019s throw in Baruch Goldstein, too. Remember him, the guy who killed 29 Muslims as they prayed? Is he an exception, or does his act define Judaism\u2019s inherent characteristics?\nEven Buddhism, which many imagine to be the very definition of peace, can be bloody. Just look at Sri Lanka, where a Buddhist majority fought a vicious civil war against the Hindu north, or Myanmar, where Buddhists have violently persecuted the Muslim Rohingya.\nNo religion is inherently violent. No religion is inherently peaceful. Religion, any religion, is a matter of interpretation, and it is often in that interpretation that we see either beauty or ugliness \u2014 or, more often, if we are mature enough to think nuanced thoughts, something in between.\nPhoto credit: ERIC ANTHONY JOHNSON/Getty Images\nTags: ISIS, Islam, Judaism, North America, Religion, Terrorism, Trump, United States, Voice",

        "raw_content": "Pride and Prejudice (work in progress)\nlost_gamer 2014-10-25 23:28:45 UTC #1\nHello everyone! Diana and I have made a demo for a game based on Jane Austen\u2019s Pride and Prejudice! The demo covers about 25% of the game, and we\u2019re hoping for some feedback before we commit ourselves to writing out the entire thing!\nhttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/216691320/web_pp/mygame/index.html\nI\u2019m already interested, simply because I went to choose playing as a guy and was told to imagine I had a sex change. I got a good laugh out of that. I would recommend letting us name the character though.\nShawnheatherly:\nWhile I\u2019m sure it wasn\u2019t intended as such, I actually found the whole \u201cIf that bothers you, just pretend you got a sex change operation, then carry on like normal\u201d offensive.\nI can see your point, and this wasn\u2019t what I meant by my comment, but it didn\u2019t bother me because my first thought was, \u2018I can play as a transgender? That\u2019s new. Cool.\u2019 That doesn\u2019t pop up in most games.\nWell you can\u2019t play as a transgender character. It\u2019s a cheap joke with being transgender as the punch-line, instead of just stating that you can\u2019t play a male character. Or taking the choice of broadsides and choice of romance route of just flipping genders and letting you play as Elijah Bennet with all of his brothers.\nIt\u2019s also problematic in regards reducing what it means to be transgender right down to the idea of \u201csex change operation.\u201d Contrary to what popular culture believes, there\u2019s not actually a single sex change operation and not all transgender people want to undergo surgery. Even if there was, would that have been available at the time when Pride and Prejudice is set? There\u2019s some other issues too. I\u2019m hoping it was just an unintentional bad joke.\nI suggest that the game either takes the route that Guinevere and Cassandra have and just allow for a female playthrough. Or go the way of the official games and allow for a gender swap. I\u2019d also suggest not forcing the protagonist to be straight. But that might be a bit much to ask for here.\nIncidentally, Choice of Games has always been pretty good at allowing for non-binary gender options. It was one of the things that drew me to Choice of the Dragon.\nGreat points. Some matters for the developer to consider.\nI agree with FairyGodmother, that joke is a bit hurtful, for the reasons that recent Sarah Silverman sex change joke was hurtful.\nI hope this game will deviate from the book, like maybe you have an option to fall in love with Wickham and redeem him? Or not, and get your heart broken, if you play your cards in a certain way. Or maybe include an option in Charlotte? Or Caroline Bingley, Mr. Bingley, etc? That could be very fun.\nIf you\u2019re not interested in doing that, then maybe you could also consider having the story from the point of view of Kitty or Mary? I just really hope this will deviate.\nAlso, is this story set in the modern era? Because I thought it was in the 1800s, then Charlotte said \u201cWhat is this, 1813?\u201d You should make that more clear.\nVerand 2014-10-26 03:38:16 UTC #8\nI began the demo thinking it wouldn\u2019t be my cup of tea since this isn\u2019t a genre I am a particular fan of but by the end I was sad that it was over. Also I was very impressed by your writing skills and can\u2019t wait for a update.\nThis story is in the 1800s but I assume it is a bit later in the century and woman are a bit more respected than in 1813.\nI\u2019m really interested to see how this is going to go! It looks great so far\nBootsykk 2014-10-26 05:22:06 UTC #10\nUnfortunately this isn\u2019t quite what I was expecting. Do you plan to write to make the game\u2026 you know, more like a series of choices? As it is now, I can\u2019t help but feel like I\u2019m being railroaded into following the story almost exactly, for the explicit reason that I\u2019m not interested in Bingley.\nFor example, I didn\u2019t want to listen at the door to the parents arguing. I don\u2019t care. But apparently, the main character DOES care, so my choices are overridden.\nThere\u2019s a lot of potential here, but I\u2019m disappointed. In all honesty, right now it\u2019s a bit like reading Pride and Prejudice lite rather than a choiceofgames inspired retelling of Pride and Prejudice.\nOh! I found another Jane Austen based game.\nMatches and Matrimony: http://www.matchesandmatrimony.com/\nRegency Love http://teaforthreestudios.com/regency-love/\nI think the second\u2019s just inspired by the setting, not sure though. There seems like there\u2019s a couple of other works in progress about too, but they might just be vaporware. (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/30564009/ever-jane-the-virtual-world-of-jane-austen for instance has a 2016 release date).\nRebelgirl 2014-10-26 14:55:17 UTC #12\nI lovee it can\u2019t wait for more! I\u2019m a BIG fan of Pride and Prejudice and Lizzy is one of my favorite female protagonists. Though i hope we can make things differnt from the book too, like chosing who we romance and maybe eventually marry. Having different paths that deviate from the books plot will add a lot of replayability(hope i spelled it right ) i\u2019m keeping an eye on this wip, don\u2019t dissapoint me!\nI agree with most of the other comments here! I love the idea, the writing is great, and the way the characters are written is entertaining and compelling, but I do wish there was more choices and stats to make for different endings and pathways.\nI felt like the things I did didn\u2019t really matter.\nlost_gamer 2014-10-26 19:03:32 UTC #14\nOkay, we can remove the joke! (It\u2019s just a placeholder until we get the male pathway written).\nDeviating from the book is exactly the plan. We have made outlines for all the various bachelors. With Wickham, he will try to take you out of the country. With Bingley, there will be a confrontation with his sisters. With Mr. Collins, when Lizzy accepts his proposal, the game automatically switches to Charlotte being the main character.\nDiana apologizes for the 1813 joke and any confusion it caused.\nThanks for the feedback! We\u2019ll look into that. Forcing Bingley on the players not only makes for a bad game, but it\u2019s also inaccurate to the book.\nDo you have any suggestions for how we could incorporate stats into the game? We\u2019re open to ideas.\nLjlenajoy 2014-10-26 19:43:46 UTC #17\nMaybe you could show your affection with the people around you? And that would determine how people would react to you and some of your other choices? Just an idea, but I really like the game and would love to read more of it!\nvalkycam 2014-10-26 19:58:00 UTC #18\nI\u2019m liking the game, but I think you may have a factual error in Chapter 4. Where there\u2019s written that women can\u2019t inherit property\u2026I don\u2019t think it\u2019s technically correct. The Bennets couldn\u2019t inherit because the property was entailed to pass on to the male line. Entail is a specific part of succession law (a form of estate planning if you will). I\u2019m not 100% sure but I think you should check it out\nI actually think having Bingley there as a potential option makes for an interesting choice. It makes it seem more like an unexplored choice in the story, rather than this game being just a strict adaptation of the book. That\u2019s just my opinion, but of course you are free to do whatever you\u2019d like\nRedRoses 2014-10-26 20:51:39 UTC #20\nI think good stats could be something like\n\u201cIntroversion vs Extroversion\u201d, where you can choose to make Lizzy shy and withdrawn ala Mary, or outspoken and flirty like Lydia\n\u201cTradition vs Modern\u201d, where you can decide just how much Lizzy follows the rules of society and such.",

        "raw_content": "Leslie Ungerleider, Ph.D.\nSection on Neurocircuitry\nDr. Ungerleider received her B.A. degree from the State University of New York at Binghamton and her Ph.D. degree, with a major in Experimental Psychology, from New York University. During her postdoctoral training with Karl Pribram at Stanford University, she began her work on higher-order perceptual mechanisms in the cortex of primates. She moved to the NIMH in 1975, joining Mortimer Mishkin in the Laboratory of Neuropsychology. Their neurobehavioral work inspired their theory of 'two cortical visual systems', one specialized for object recognition and another for visuospatial perception.\nIn 1995, Dr. Ungerleider became Chief of the Laboratory of Brain and Cognition at NIMH. She is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 2001, she was the recipient of the Women in Neuroscience Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2008 she became an NIH Distinguished Investigator\nThe goal of the Section on Neurocircuitry has long been devoted to establishing the links between neural structure and cognitive function, especially in the visual modality. Most of Dr. Ungerleider\u2019s early work was devoted to anatomical tracing techniques in macaque monkeys in order to delineate the areas that comprise visual association cortex and their interconnections. The mappings of the monkey extrastriate visual cortex in the mid- 1990\u2019s outlined some of the major functional systems. With the advent of functional brain imaging in humans Dr. Ungerleider re-channeled her resources towards studies of human cortex, first using PET and then fMRI. Her monkey work has guided many of her hypotheses in human imaging studies.\nDr. Ungerleider\u2019s work on visual attention and perception has shown that in a typical scene many different objects compete for neural representation due to the limited processing capacity of the visual system. The competition among multiple objects can be biased by both bottom-up sensory-driven mechanisms and top-down influences, such as selective attention. Although the competition among stimuli for representation is ultimately resolved within visual cortex, the source of top-down biasing signals likely derives from a distributed network of areas in frontal and parietal cortex. This biased competition model of attention suggests that once attentional resources are depleted, no further processing is possible. Dr. Ungerleider's recent work has shown that, similar to the processing of other stimulus categories, the processing of stimuli with emotional valence is under top-down control, requiring attentional resources.\nPerception of emotional expressions is independent of face selectivity in monkey inferior temporal cortex.

Many current acts have been heavily influenced by The Equals, including Ty Segall, who recently covered their single \u201cDiversion\u201d.\nThe Equals were a pioneering mixed race group that never performed in The United States, though they were extremely popular in countries such as Germany and The Netherlands, as well as their home in The United Kingdom. While their best known member is Eddie Grant (who as a solo artist hit big with \u201cElectric Avenue\u201d), Derv has always been their lead singer.\nDerv made his first ever U.S. appearance in 2017 performing to a sold out crowd at The Elbo Room in San Francisco. As with that performance, he will backed by a fantastic Bay Area band, So What, who themselves owe a huge musical debt to The Equals. So What has just released their pulsating debut album, \u201cHard Gum\u201d on Just Add Water Records. Bandleader Jason Duncan is also currently working on the first ever Equals biography.\n(Photo: Lily Chou-JetLag RocknRoll)",

        "title": "Coast Guard vessel ID system enters critical phase -- GCN",
        "raw_content": "Coast Guard vessel ID system enters critical phase\nThe Coast Guard expects to define technical requirements for an Automatic Vessel Identification System by early next year, but national rollout hinges on availability of funding and the outcome of a dispute over radio spectrum.\nThe AIS would be a global satellite navigation system that would automatically transmit data about ships to other vessels and to shore-based stations.\nRequired under the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002, it would be part of an international system to track commercial vessels along more than 37,000 miles of U.S. coastal and inland waterways.\nShips must have AIS equipment by the end of this year, but installation of shore-based infrastructure is only beginning.\nOnly a small fraction of the cost of implementing the system has been budgeted, but the Government Accountability Office has identified a number of port authorities willing to share the cost of the system with the Coast Guard.\nThe wild card in the equation is a $267 million claim filed against USCG by marine communications company MariTEL Inc. of Cummings, Ga., which holds licenses for radio channels to be used by AIS. The Federal Communications Commission is expected to rule on the complaint this summer.\n'This response could affect the overall cost and pace of nationwide AIS development,' GAO said in a recent report on the vessel ID system. 'Depending on FCC's response, one factor that offers an opportunity to reduce federal costs is that some local port entities are willing to assume the expense and responsibility for AIS construction if they can use AIS data.'\nRestrictions on the use of AIS radio channels proposed by MariTEL could sour those opportunities, GAO said.\nThe tracking system would provide static information about vessels, including identity, vessel type and size, as well as dynamic information, including its current cargo, destination, course, speed and estimated arrival time.\nThe system is intended to improve maritime safety as well as national security, and also could enhance port operations.\nUSCG is implementing AIS in two phases, focusing first on replacing 10 current Vessel Traffic Service systems that provide tracking services for 36 U.S. ports.\nAIS systems are operational in Berwick Bay, La.; Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif.; Prince William Sound, Alaska; and St. Marys River, Mich. Systems are in various stages of development in Houston-Galveston; New York; Port Arthur, Texas; Puget Sound, Wash.; and San Francisco.\nUSCG hopes to be able to issue a request for proposals for broader rollout on the nation's waterways between December and February.\nThe fiscal 2005 budget request for AIS is $4 million, but rough estimates for the total cost range from $62 million to $165 million.\nA number of port authorities have expressed interest in partnering with USCG in implementing AIS.\nThe Marine Exchange of Southern California purchased an estimated $2.2 million worth of AIS equipment for the port of Los Angeles-Long Beach, and the Tampa Port Authority is seeking money to upgrade an early version of AIS at the Florida port.\nOther interested parties include the ports of Baltimore; Charleston, S.C.; Corpus Christi, Texas; Hampton Roads, Va.; Portland, Ore.; and Delaware Bay ports in Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.\nBut MariTEL successfully bid $7 million for 10-year licenses to two very high frequency radio channels designated as the international channels for AIS. The company is willing to share the channels only with USCG, which would cut the value of the service to ports.",

Cellars of business houses and residences are filled with water, seven or eight lengths of rail have been washed from the railroad tracks and crops for a territory within a five mile radius have been washed from the ground. It was impossible for people to cross the streets as the water was four and five feet deep. Sidewalks were covered and much damage was done by the water flowing into the cellars. Because of the track being washed away it is estimated that it will be nearly two days before a train can run through the city. In some of the lower parts of the city people are being forced to leave their homes because of the water.

        "raw_content": "BUDGET AND PERFORMANCE INTEGRATION\nAnd the ratings continue . . .\nI guess imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. First, Scotland's EPA subjects itself to program performance assessments modeled after the President's Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART). Now, the State of California is doing it. The State of California's most recent budget, as part of its California Performance Review, calls for \"Program Performance Assessment and Budgeting.\" The State will \"implement a program to make regular, detailed, and rigorous evaluations of program performance.\" Of course, the Administration has just concluded its second year of rigorous program evaluation, and the President's FY 2005 Budget reflects impressive growth in the extent to which performance is a factor in budget decision making and program management.\nThe Administration has completed PART assessments for approximately 400 programs representing approximately more than $1 trillion in Federal spending.:\n234 programs were assessed last year;\n173 programs were assessed this year; and\nRemaining programs will be assessed over the next three years.\nEleven percent of programs were rated \"Effective\";\nTwenty-six percent were rated \"Moderately Effective\";\nTwenty percent were rated just \"Adequate\";\nFive percent were rated \"Ineffective\";\nAlmost 40 percent of programs were unable to demonstrate results.\nThe spending:\n$123 billion is spent on programs rated \"Effective\";\n$590 billion is spent on programs rated \"Moderately Effective\";\n$145 billion is spent on programs rated \"Adequate\";\nJust $17 billion is spent on programs rated \"Ineffective\";\nand almost $209 billion is spent on programs for which we cannot demonstrate results.\nAll of the assessments were included with the President's Budget and can be found at www.omb.gov. What matters most, of course, is not the assessments themselves, but what agencies are doing to addressing shortcomings in program performance identified through the PART. The Administration is using performance information and PART assessments more than ever before to make decisions and improve program performance. Some examples:\nThe Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) produces economic statistics, including the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), that enable public and private decisionmakers to follow and understand the performance of the nation's economy. The program received an \"effective\" PART rating and the Administration proposes additional funding for the program. With the more than 20 percent in additional requested funds, the program will improve the quality and timeliness of its economic statistics.\nThe Perkins Federal Loan program, which provides funding to colleges and universities to make low interest loans available to needy students, received an \"ineffective\" rating. Because the program was found to be redundant of similar programs, and because those other programs were found to be more cost efficient, the Administration proposes to eliminate the program as part of the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act and redirect funds to more effective student aid programs, such as Pell.\nAlthough the Environmental Protection Agency's Civil Enforcement program received a PART rating of \"results not demonstrated,\" the Administration proposes increased funding for the program. The program, which is designed to enforce Federal environmental laws, was found to lack adequate measures of compliance with laws and regulations, and funding will be used for, among other things, developing the right measures of performance.\nThe Department of Energy's (DOE) Advanced Scientific Computing Research program, which provides world-class computing facilities to scientists who need to analyze and visualize the massive amounts of data that result from the modeling of complex physical and biological systems. Last year, the program's PART showed that the program did not have a sufficient strategic vision nor did it have adequate performance measures. This year, the program adopted performance measures that will focus on keeping computing costs low and focus computing usage on those computations that require at least an eighth of total computing capacity, thereby making the maximum use of the facilities' capability. These measures will routinely assess the usefulness and the efficiency of the facilities the program provides to scientists.\nThe PART completed for the Trio Upward Bound Program (Department of Education), which provides intensive services to improve academic performance and college preparation for high school students, found the program was inadequately targeted to the high-risk students who have potential for college but are not performing successfully in high school. In response, the Department of Education has created a special competition among projects to award $18 million to those that serve high-risk students. The Department will monitor the college enrollment rate for these participants and will use the results of this demonstration Initiative to guide future changes in the program.\nCan We do More for Less?\nWith the PART, we are asking not only how well programs are performing, but how efficiently they are performing. Efficiency measures tell us what results we're getting for each dollar we spend. For example:\nThe Broadcasting Board of Governors' efforts to broadcast to Near East Asia and South Asia could not demonstrate that they were achieving results last year. But following the recommendations in last year's PART, the program this year set goals for weekly audience, program quality, signal strength and cost-per-listener. With additional funding, the program dramatically increased its reach to Arab speaking countries to an estimated 10.5 million listeners each week, up from just 3.9 million in 2002, and reduced the cost-per-listener from $1.22 in 2002 to just \u00a2.88 in 2003.\nLast year, the Administration on Aging, which provides services and benefits to the elderly so they can remain in their homes and communities, could not measure its impact. This year, the program was able to show it was moderately effective after demonstrating that its services enable the elderly to remain in their homes and communities and setting goals for increasing the number of people served per each million dollars spent. With level funding, the program plans to increase by 6 percent in 2004 and 8 percent in 2005 the number of people served per million of funding.\nAre Budget Decisions Based on PART Scores?\nAlthough performance is an important factor in decision making, it is not the only factor. Funding decisions are not made automatically based on PART assessments. For example:\nDespite the Department of Energy's Distributed Energy Resources Program's \"Moderately Effective\" rating, the Administration proposes a small reduction in funding for the program. The program funds research for improved energy efficiency of and reduced emissions from on-site energy production. The 13 percent decrease in funding is attributable not to the program's rating, but to relative priorities among Department of Energy programs.\nAlthough the Youth Activities program was rated \"ineffective,\" the program's proposed funding remains relatively stable. The program provides formula grants to States and local areas to provide training to low-income and other disadvantaged youth to help them secure employment, but does not have the authority to target funds to the areas of greatest need. To allow it to be more effective, the Administration proposes to give the Secretary of Labor and States increased authority to reallocate resources to areas of need.\nWe are now working with agencies to decide what programs will be PARTed this year. In addition, we're working with Congress to ensure they get the performance information in a way that contributes to their decision making. It's another challenge in our effort to make this government a results-oriented organization.",

He knows as much about lipoic acid as anyone on the planet.\u201d\nDavid gained an academic interest in mechanisms of aging and began exploring the possibility of pharmacological intervention into the aging process in 1998. Animal models indicated R-lipoic acid (RLA) may normalize several age-related markers to those of youthful animals.\nRLA was commercially unavailable at that time, so he began to work out industrially feasible routes to produce R-Lipoic Acid and stable-bioavailable dosage forms on a large scale, which evolved into GeroNova Research, Inc. David has played a key role in the introduction and development of R-Lipoic Acid, K-RALA, Na-RALA, Rala-Gel and R-DHLA for the nutraceutical industry.\nDavid\u2019s latest research is the development of entirely \u201cgreen\u201d and asymmetric processes for the industrial scale synthesis of R-Lipoic Acid and R-DHLA, and the contribution of stereochemistry and the metabolites to the overall mechanisms of action of RLA/R-DHLA. He is continuously testing and developing novel dosage forms, evaluating the plasma pharmacokinetics of R-Lipoic Acid and various nutritional supplements and identifying new biomarkers for quantitation and intervention into the aging process.\nGeroNova has compiled an extensive data base of English and foreign language lipoic acid articles and is actively translating foreign articles into English in order to facilitate future researchers.

        "title": "Trains From Brussels to Normandy Beach France | Getaway USA",
        "raw_content": "The beaches of Normandy, France, have long been an important place to visit for those connected to the D-Day Invasion during World War II. Many come to pay their their respects to the soldiers who died defending our freedom. Today, the Normandy beaches are full of monuments and memorials to the servicemen of all the Allied countries that took part in the invasion. If you plan on visiting from Belgium, train service can get you to Bayeux, France the town closest to the D-Day beaches, in less than four hours.\nBrussels to Paris Leg\nTake a Thalys (thalys.com) high-speed train from the Brussels Midi train station to Paris Gare du Nord train station. Thalys is operated jointly by Belgium, France, The Netherlands and Germany. These ultra-modern trains feature comfortable seats with ample legroom in all classes, WiFi access, and a bar car with snacks and drinks. The trip from Brussels to Paris on a Thalys train takes about one hour and 20 minutes.\nParis to Bayeux, France Leg\nParis has four major train stations with different train services. When you reach the Gare du Nord station in Paris, you will have to transfer to a Paris Metro (rapt.fr) RER E-line train towards Haussmann-St. Lazare, to get to the Gare St. Lazare train station. It is the very next stop after you leave Gare du Nord. When you arrive, transfer again to a SCNF (scnf.com) Intercites train to Bayeux train station in Bayeux, France. SCNF is the main French railway service, connecting Paris with many of France's smaller cities. The trip takes roughly two hours and 15 minutes. Bayeux is the closest town to Normandy's American D-Day beaches, Omaha Beach and Utah Beach.\nGetting To Normandy Beaches\nTo get to Omaha beach, the main beach in Normandy where American troops landed during World War II, you can opt take a local public bus, Bus Verts (busverts.fr) #70, which stops by the Normandy American Cemetery (abmc.gov) and Omaha Beach. However, the schedule is limited and can be difficult to figure out unless you speak French. Another option is to rent a car at one of the car rental agencies in town, allowing you to get around at your own pace. If you prefer a guided tour, there are several tour companies in Bayeux, such as Tour Clare (tourclare.com), which offers a variety of Normandy Beach tours.\nNormandy Beach Sights\nWhether you choose a guided tour or you wish to explore on your own, visit the Omaha Beach Memorial Museum (musee-memorial-omaha.com), which has a collection of war artifacts, photographs and a film about the D-day landings. It is just down the road from the Omaha Beach Monument (musee-memorial-omaha.com) that sits right on the beach. Nearby is the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial (abmc.gov), home to 9,387 American troops who died, many on Omaha Beach, during the D-Day invasion. Further up the coast is Utah Beach, where you can visit the Utah Beach American Memorial (abmc.gov).\nNormandy Tourism: D-Day and the Battle Of Normandy\nThalys: Destinations\nRATP: Paris Public Transportation System Map\nSCNF: Intercites By SCNF\nBus Verts: Line 70 Schedule\nCar Hire: Bayeux\nTour Clare: Bayeux\nOmaha Beach Memorial Museum: The Events and Monuments\nAmerican Battle Monuments Commision: Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial\nAmerican Battle Monuments Commision: Utah Beach Memorial\nCan I Take a Bus From Barcelona to Marseille?\nHow to Get From Nice, France, to Verona, Italy, Fast on the Train or Bus\nHow to Travel by Train From Belgium to Portugal\nHow to Travel From Madrid to Nice, France",

        "raw_content": "Discovery of WWII photos in a foxhole was just a dumb hoax\nFiled to: wwii cameraFiled to: wwii camera\nwwii camera\nlouis j archambeau\nRight around Independence Day, an amazing story went around: historians discover a soldier's camera at the site of the Battle of the Bulge. They develop the 70-year-old film and find grainy but gripping images taken by a soldier just before he was killed. It's an engrossing tale\u2014but it's false: the photos came from a book published in 2005.\nBattle of the Bulge (Images of War)\nThe story had all the hallmarks of a dramatic and heroic war tale. Infantry rifleman Louis J. Archambeau's regiment found themselves in the thick of the Battle of the Bulge, the story goes, and they sought refuge in a foxhole. Archambeau died there\u2014he was declared Missing In Action on December 26th, 1944, his body not found until February. His camera, the story goes, was untouched for 70 years, until it was discovered by metal-detector-wielding historians in the foxhole where Archambeau left it.\nLouis J. Archambeau did, in fact, serve during WWII, as confirmed by his listing in the World War II Registry. He was killed in action, and is buried in a U.S. military cemetery in Luxembourg.\nArchambeau's great-nephew even has a picture of Louis's grave:\nBut while it seems true that military historian Mark Anderson actually discovered a camera in the woods outside Luxembourg, internet sleuths recognized some of the supposedly never-before-seen photos. At least two of them appear (in much higher quality) at the U.S. Wartime Archives, and were also published in Images of War: Battle of the Bulge by Andrew Rawson.\nSo where did the true story go off the rails and turn into a hoax? Nobody's really sure. Louis's great-nephew maintains that Mark Anderson did indeed discover an abandoned camera, and that it did indeed contain undeveloped film. But Anderson wasn't present in the darkroom when the film was developed, nor did he see negatives or prints. Somewhere along the way, fuzzy versions of once-clear, previously-published photos got included in the trove, and then the whole thing went viral.\nLouis J. Archambeau died in battle and was awarded the Purple Heart. A WWII-era camera was discovered in a field in Luxembourg. There are wide gaps in this story\u2014gaps the internet filled in with hoax.",

Before describing the types of tread design, let us understand the difference between a tread and tread pattern. Tread is that part of a tire which comes in contact with the road and is made of rubber. Whereas tread pattern is a design cut into the rubber to maintain traction between the tire and the terrain. Let us look at the different types of tire tread design and what you should consider while shopping for tires.\nSymmetrical Tread Pattern\nThis is the type of tire tread pattern design found in most economic cars. As the name suggests, the tires have a continuous similar pattern of treads across either side of the tire. These tires are meant to be long-lasting without too many hassles. You don\u2019t have to worry about fitting this type of tire in a specific direction as it is non-directional and can be fitted in different ways. Overall these tires are meant to do its job on regular roads and can be very reliable when it comes to performance.\nThis style of tread design is a combination of tread patterns which is cut in combination to deal with a wide variety of road conditions. They are mostly found in high-performance sports cars. They are perfect for driving in wet conditions as well as dry conditions. The strategic combination of treads allows for superior grip on roads and enables you to make turns at high speeds. The inside part of the tire is designed for winter conditions whereas the outer part is designed to handle summer conditions. The tires are marked inside and outside to aid the mechanic while fitting these tires.\nThe treads are cut into a V-shaped pattern that runs in a single direction along the entire tire. The tires are marked with arrows to denote the direction in which it should roll. These tires are mostly used in super high-performance vehicles. The tires are very efficient in deflecting water and ensuring that the vehicle is gripping the road at all times. So if you consistently drive at high speeds on the highway then this tire tread design will suit you well.\nAsymmetrical/Directional Pattern\nThis tread design pattern has the benefits of both directional and asymmetrical design. It features superior hydroplaning resistance and also handles dry conditions very well. They are very similar to directional tires in terms of fitting and usage.\nAll-Terrain Design\nThese tires are designed for light duty trucks. They can be driven both on-road and off-road and feature deep tread blocks and wide grooves. They are perfect for off road driving as the larger tread elements are designed to give better handling and a smooth ride.\nMud Traction Design\nThese tires are similar to an all terrain design with a little more emphasis on providing superior traction in rocky and mud terrain. Some of the treads of this pattern are cut to run along the direction of the rotation.\nYou can easily get overwhelmed by the great variety of tire tread design and patterns and we wouldn\u2019t blame you for that.

Despite the small population, a large volume of international voice traffic is concentrated in Dominica: the country attracts numerous tourists with such tourist destinations as Boiling Lake, Trafalgar waterfalls, narrow Titou Gorge and luxurious botanical gardens in the capital Roseau.\nMobile penetration in the country has reached 153% (more than 111.9 thousand connections). Many locals use two SIM cards. The mobile communications market is represented by two operators, who often work on small islands in the Caribbean:\nDigicel Dominica.\nAt the moment, each of these two cellular service providers owns 50% of the market, although Digicel appeared in Dominica only in 2016. Notably, Flow was a monopolist in the local mobile sector before. Both operators have good GSM coverage, especially along the coast.\nSIM-cards are sold not only in the branded stores of cellular operators, but also in grocery stores. The cost of one start plans is about $9. The standard tariff for calls for prepaid customers is high - $0.26 per minute, but there are profitable prepaid plans, within which the cost of a minute of call can be reduced up to $ 0.004.\nWith average voip mobile call rates in the direction of Dominica being $0.11- $0.12, you get a chance to earn a minimum of $300 from each VoIP equipment channel (terminating approximately 300 minutes per day, including the cost of buying the SIM cards).",

But one of the most interesting changes we\u2019ve seen is that we now have, for the first time, four different generations working side-by-side. Today\u2019s workforce is comprised of the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Gen X\u2019ers, and Millennials.\nBecause members of these generations grew up under different circumstances, it\u2019s common to hear from Human Resources professionals that their multigenerational workers sometimes prefer to work differently, communicate differently, and be managed differently from each other. While there are differences in many ways, getting employees, irrespective of generation, to pay attention to their benefits is a challenge. In a recent Forrester study of 100 Fortune 500 HR professionals, seventy-seven percent of HR pros report having difficulty getting their employees to read updates on benefits. In today\u2019s age of the customer, employees choose how they want to consume content and access information.\nResponding to the changing nature of their audience, HR pros have started to use various modes of communications based on the mix of generations in their workforce. However, while it is beneficial (and interesting) to map channels like SMS, email, apps and direct mail to generations, these generalizations (just like most generalizations) don\u2019t always hold up.\nEven though data suggests that each generation does have a preferred communication mode, it\u2019s almost never a \u201clandslide\u201d preference of one over the others. In a benefits survey Evive Health conducted with 87,000 employees of a large Fortune 500 retailer, we saw that the most preferred mode was ranked highest by between 47 \u2013 60 percent of the generation\u2019s population (Silent: 47% email; Boomers: 53% email; Gen X: 59% email; Millennials: 60% email). That means that if you simply communicate in the one mode that has the highest ranking within a generational cohort (email, in all of these cases), anywhere from 40 to more than 50 percent of that cohort won\u2019t be receiving communications in their desired medium (Silent: 44% postal, 9% SMS; Boomers: 31% postal, 16% SMS; Gen X: 21% postal, 20% SMS; Millennial: 19% postal, 21% SMS). Each generation has members that care about each mode.\nThe adage that benefits communication is not \u201cone size fits all\u201d extends to communications channels as well, even within a single generation of employees. To increase engagement and help your employees get the most value out of their benefits, survey your population on the mode in which they prefer to receive communications, and then be prepared to execute across all modes, ideally reaching out to each individual in the mode they prefer. Doing so would put you in the elite five percent of employers who assess their employees\u2019 communication preferences, according to a recent Xerox HR/National Business Group on Health survey.\nUltimately, if your goal is the optimal utilization of benefits, be ready to go multimodal for your multigenerational workforce. What do you do to ensure you\u2019re reaching your employees in the mode they prefer?\nbenefits engagement, personalized nudges",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Selling Advice \u00bb I\u2019m Emigrating, Should I Sell My Property?\nThere are many reasons why people decide to emigrate, including pursuing employment opportunities, moving closer to family or fulfilling a lifetime dream to live abroad. However, one of the biggest decisions homeowners face is what to do with their property when they move abroad.\nAlthough emigrating can be stressful, deciding what to do with your UK assets doesn\u2019t have to be difficult. This post looks at the factors you need to consider when deciding whether to rent or sell your property, including the advantages, disadvantages and tax implications of each.\nShould you sell or rent your house when moving abroad?\nWhen emigrating, many people prefer to keep their primary home and rent it out to generate an income. While this simultaneously ensures you have a home to return to and allows you to capitalise on the property market, any profit you make above the personal allowance level will be considered a taxable UK income.\nIf you choose to rent out your home, you have to decide whether you\u2019ll manage the home yourself from abroad, rely on family or find a property management agency. Agencies can be expensive, generally charging fees of between 10% and 15% of your rental income over the year. Although you\u2019ll save costs doing it yourself, you\u2019ll have to be mindful of how your tax residence status could change if you need to return to the UK often to manage your property.\nFor most, selling up and moving abroad is appealing because it is a fresh start. Selling before you emigrate allows you to release the equity tied up in your property, which you can then use to buy a house abroad or assist with your relocation costs. Other factors to consider when deciding whether to sell or rent your house include:\nMortgage repayments: If you\u2019re planning to rent your property while you\u2019re abroad, you have to secure a buy-to-let mortgage. Due to the high risk associated with renting, including tenant turnover and potential vacancy periods, buy-to-let mortgages tend to have much higher fees and interest rates than ordinary contracts.\nProbate: It is straightforward to administer an estate and resolve tax issues when the deceased and their assets are located in the same country. A person can only be domiciled in one country at any given time, so after your death the value of your estate and assets are calculated according to where you resided. If you\u2019re renting a home but living abroad, your next of kin will have to obtain an expensive and time-consuming grant of probate to consolidate your assets before any inheritance can be released and they can sell the inherited property.\nBudgeting: From finding a property in your new host country to hiring an international moving company, emigrating is an expensive process. It\u2019s important to work out whether the income you\u2019ll receive from renting can cover the property management costs, mortgage interest and estate agent fees.\nInsurance: If you\u2019re selling up and moving abroad, you must protect your vacated property with unoccupied house insurance. If your home is unoccupied for more than thirty consecutive days, your standard household insurance policy no longer covers it. As your property is standing empty for an extended period of time, it is more vulnerable to theft and electrical fires and floods will go unattended. You may be able to lower your insurance premiums if you have installed additional security measures, such as burglar alarms or padlocks.\nTax Implications when emigrating\nAnother important factor to consider when deciding whether to sell or rent your property is the tax implications.\nIf you retain your property in the UK while living abroad, any income you make from renting over the personal allowance of \u00a311,500 will be subject to 20% tax. Britain has \u2018double taxation agreements\u2019 with many countries, which is popular with expatriates; in effect, you don\u2019t pay tax on the same income. If the tax rates differ between the UK and your host country, you\u2019ll pay the higher rate.\nYou\u2019ll also be liable to pay capital gains tax collected on the profit you make from selling or renting your UK property. Capital gains tax is the tax levied on any profit made from the sale of an asset, unless it falls below the annual capital gains allowance of \u00a311,700. If you\u2019re considering selling up and moving abroad, you don\u2019t have to pay capital gains tax on your property if:\nIt was used primarily as your main home and not as a way of making profit.\nIt was your main home for the time you owned it.\nIt was only used by you, your family and no more than one lodger throughout the period of ownership.\nThe total area of land that comes with the house doesn\u2019t exceed 5,000 square metres, including the part of land that the house is built on.\nIf you emigrate before selling, you have to be a non-resident for a minimum of five complete tax years before you can dispose of any profitable assets without being taxed. Even though you may be deemed a non-resident for income tax purposes during these five years, you\u2019ll be treated as only a temporary non-resident for capital gains tax.\nIf you acquired the property after you left the UK then any profit you make is not subject to capital gains tax, but may be taxable in your host country. If you return to the UK within five years of moving abroad, you may have to pay tax on the income or gains you made while you were a non-resident.\nThose who emigrate but choose to retain their property will be subject to a 40% inheritance tax levied on any UK assets after their death. If the value of your estate is below the \u00a3325,000 threshold or you leave everything to your spouse, you won\u2019t be subject to inheritance tax.\nIf you have monitored the UK property market and decided that you can meet the costs of renting out your home while living abroad, keeping your property can be a good long-term investment. However, if you\u2019re put off by the costs and tax implications associated with retaining assets in the UK, the best option may a quick house sale through Good Move.\nIf you\u2019re looking to sell up, release equity and move abroad fast, contact the experienced surveyors at Good Move to receive a cash offer in just 24 hours.\nPlease read <a href=\"https://goodmove.co.uk/blog/selling-advice/emigrating-should-sell/\" title=\"I&#8217;m Emigrating, Should I Sell My Property?\">I&#8217;m Emigrating, Should I Sell My Property?</a> on <a href=\"https://goodmove.co.uk\">Good Move\u2122</a>",

        "title": "Battle at the Bible Study \u2013 Grace in the Gravel",
        "raw_content": "Battle at the Bible Study\nI realize I\u2019m not the best person to come into any sort of confrontation. I clam up, dwell on the situation for far too long, and generally don\u2019t let go of it easily.\nSo I\u2019m still thinking of the battle at our bible study last night. It luckily happened after the study \u2013 when a couple of couples at our study had walked out to find their car blocked in by a big suburban.\nI recognize this vehicle because it has a custom license tag on it, which I have associated with the mother and son who are always coming in and out of our condo lot in it. However, I also notice it because one day as I went to go to work, I could hear her screaming at her son while she was in her house. It wasn\u2019t the type of scream that he should go to his room either. It was the blood curdling kind that made me want to hide and clam up even though I was in the parking lot.\nFlash forward to last night, when I realize that it is her. I quickly grab backup (okay, she intimidates me), which was probably the wrong approach because after a couple of knocks she comes to the door already on the defensive. I mumbled that her car was in the way, and she uttered a few things like \u201cgreat, now you have waken up my son\u201d.\nThen we get to moving the car. Before she moves it, she says that she didn\u2019t do it on purpose to block them in but because she had groceries and had to get her son fed. She then looked at us and snaps that visitors weren\u2019t allowed in those spots in the first place \u2013 they were only for homeowners, gets in her car and backs up just enough to let them through and get her spot again.\nI scurried off quickly.\nHowever, even this morning I\u2019m still a little annoyed by the whole situation. The defensive side of me wishes that I could have pointed out that Billy and I never take the upfront spots \u2013 so their two spots were equivalent to ours. I\u2019m frustrated that she somehow feels entitled to those spots when we routinely make sure that we don\u2019t park there. I am also angry that she was trying to sound considerate of her son, when I\u2019ve heard things come from her mouth that even an adult shouldn\u2019t hear.\nOn the other hand, I do feel sorry for this woman and her child. I feel compelled to do something exactly the opposite of what I really feel like doing. Instead of giving her my mind, I\u2019m tempted to give her some brownies and a note to apologize. Instead of a mean lady, I see her as troubled woman who has lived through more trials than I have.\nEven in this small situation I can see the real battle isn\u2019t about the parking or my neighbor \u2013 it is between my sin and hate and the compelling nature of the Spirit. It is clearer to me how in direct competition my will is with God\u2019s.\nWhat is even more clear is why I have to depend on God. If looking for advice, I know that I could tell this story and get everybody on my side \u2013 except for God. It blows my mind to think of how he loves, and I realize how incapable I am without his help.\nNext Post Get out of my way, passive trial.\nYou have such an amazing heart. It is so hard to care for people who do not \u201cplay well with others,\u201d (especially when they treat their children badly) and yet you\u2019re able to put your judgments aside and try to love this lady.\nYou\u2019re a really cool person and I am very glad that I have had the opportunity to get to know you at community group and now through your blog. =)\nIf you want to take her some brownies and apologize, I would be happy to go with you so you don\u2019t have to face her alone. We could even invite her to community group!",

        "raw_content": "Dear \u201cAwakened\u201d Communities,\nYes I mean YOU, Buddhist and Non-Buddhist alike. I am angry with you. Yes angry, oops am I not supposed to be angry? Well buckle up, you may not like this ride, or just jump off and avoid all these \u201cnegative emotions\u201d if you can. You are good at that\u2026unless of course you are wielding them at others while they are all dressed up as truth and passive aggressive compassion.\nI am angry because I was raped when I was an eight year old little girl. You are dangerous because you tell me that I should live as if this didn\u2019t actually happen.\nThrough my meditation practice I have learned to let go of my shame, and because of this I have learned to be open and honest about being raped and molested as an eight year old child. I have found the courage to sit with and write about the flashbacks, the anxiety, and the PTSD that has resulted from that traumatizing year of my life. Sitting still and silent has not made these things go away. Philosophy and critical thinking have not made these things go away. Cognitive behavioral therapy and other forms of counseling have not made these things go away. Alcohol, self-injury, exercise, and diet have not made these things go away. Prayer, and begging, and bargaining have not made these things go away. You know why? Because these things do not go away. Full stop.\nTrauma can be ignored and lied about. But it does not go away\nTrauma can be folded into daily life, it can be set safely in the background, it can be worked with, and looked at, and talked about. It can also be ignored, dissociated from, and lied about. But it does not go away. We know that trauma changes brain chemistry, especially childhood trauma. So until I undergo a lobotomy or brain death, these changes will not go away. I can maybe mitigate them with diligent self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self compassion. But, no amount of ephemeral \u201cno-self\u201d or \u201cemptiness\u201d is going to change the fact that the rape occurred, that these physical brain changes occurred, that PTSD is the result. To offer \u201cno-self and emptiness\u201d to rape survivors as some illusory way out is a dangerous, arrogant, and self-serving game. It serves only to deny the reality of what happened. It serves only to continue to silence us. It serves only to leave survivors feeling alone and like failures when inevitably these memories come charging back in the form of PTSD. It serves only to allow YOU to feel more comfortable with what we represent\u2026the loud, chaotic, unpredictable, and cruel nature of this world.\nYou want to talk about present moment, real present moment? At any given moment I can be unconsciously triggered into a flashback, into anxiety, into my PTSD symptoms. I can be sweating, heart racing, nauseous, short of breath, and physically incapacitated. I can be back in that bed feeling crushed by that man while he inserts himself into my mouth, my vagina, my brain. I can be once again looking out that window while it is happening praying for help, praying for my mother to come home, praying for God, someone, anyone to save me. These things happen exactly IN that \u201cempty present moment\u201d and they are anything but an empty illusion. But, do you know what I do? I stop and sit still and silent WITH them. I watch them occur, I feel them, I let these things wash through me and over me and I notice what that means, and I notice that I do not die\u2026to spite every fiber of my being that tells me otherwise. I shake, and I cry, and I experience the present moment of PTSD. Then I get up and experience the other present moments during the day when the reverberations of PTSD and rape remain in my body. When these things pass, I live with and experience that relief as well. I am fully aware that both of these things will happen, and I let myself experience both the pain and the relief. This is my practice. Present moment isn\u2019t supposed to always be easy, blissful, and peaceful. Present moment is simply what it is when it shows up, and the real practice, the real bravery, comes in letting it be what it is, making real contact with what that is, for better or worse.\nAnd you say \u201cemptiness?\u201d And you say \u201cno-self?\u201d And you say \u201clet it go, it is an illusion, it is imaginary?\u201d Why does what you say sound EXACTLY like what my abuser said to me in order to keep me silent, in order to keep me trapped, in order to continue raping me with impunity?\nYou may not understand this if you have not been through it.\nYou will hold tightly to your belief that there is some simple on/off switch that can make the past disappear, that can make future flashbacks never happen. Oh how I wish that was true, just as you do. Believe me, I have tried to find that easy switch in nearly every way possible. That on/off switch does not exist, in any form, from any religion or belief system, and to pretend like it does is no different than selling snake oil to a terminally ill patient. It is no different than turning your back on a rape-in-progress. It is no different than telling the victim, and the perpetrator, not to worry it will all be over soon and when it is over it will all be imaginary anyway. Your \u201cemptiness\u201d denies the violence of the act as equally as it denies justice or responsibility for the act. Your \u201cemptiness\u201d denies the humanity of the person raped and the intentional cruel action of the person raping. Your \u201cemptiness\u201d denies a harsh reality. Oh how I wish I could deny it too, but I cannot.\nYou want to see my anger, my struggle, my vigilance, my embodiment, and my honesty as some sort of proof that I am not \u201cawakened, realized, saved.\u201d But oh how wrong you are. I spent most of my life trying to escape this human form, dissociated from it, and guess what\u2026that didn\u2019t work. Now I am in it, feeling it, allowing it, and I don\u2019t know if this works either. Hell, I don\u2019t know what \u201cworks\u201d is supposed to mean anyway. But, I do know that I am done trying to be something I am not. I am no longer ashamed to be human, I am no longer afraid to speak openly about sexual assault or any other part of my humanity, and I am no longer looking out that window waiting for someone else to save me. Not even you.\nSincerely, angrily, unashamed, and still sitting,\nMe when I was 8 years old",

        "raw_content": "Pandora was originally a normal girl during the times of Ancient Greece, until one day Zeus, Poseidon and Hades decided to send down a \"mysterious box\" down to Pandora. Upon seeing the box, Pandora's curiosity was piqued and she opened it, unwittingly unleashing all of the previously-imprisoned evil forces that had been contained within the box. Turned upon by her fellow man, Pandora, now cursed to wander the earth with no place to call home, had to now keep with her the box of legend.\nPandora sought revenge against both the people that spurned her and the gods that cursed her. To do this, she needed to open the box and unleash the contents upon them, but her \"curse\" prohibits her from being able to open the very object from which her curse stems from and can grant her the revenge she craves. Forced to wander the earth, unable to open her box, Pandora, under the alias of \"Dora\", sought someone she can trick into opening the box for her, passing it off as a lunchbox.\nHer chance finally came when she met Mandy at Endsville Elementary School. When they were out on the football field, Mandy wanted to destroy Mindy, her arch-nemesis. So she opens the lunchbox, unleashing evil that happened to be demons shaped like food. Pandora reveals her true identity and that she had tricked Mandy into unleashing all of the demons. Mandy, angry that Pandora tricked her, stops the end of the world by sucking the demons and Pandora into the lunchbox (simply by closing the box and opening it again). Strangely enough however, Pandora can still be seen in later episodes, but it could be a look alike.\nIt is obvious Pandora\u2019s alias and design were meant to be a reference to Nickelodeon's animated series Dora the Explorer (until the lunchbox was opened).\nThis is most likely a pun on her name, Pandora.\nIt appears her curse halted her aging process and gave her immortality, as she lived for many centuries.\nIn Greek mythology, Pandora opened a box (originally a jar) that unleashed all the evil in the world. It is this box that her episode is based on.\nNika Futterman, Pandora's voice actress, would (coincidentally) later voice Pandora, Goddess of Calamity in Kid Icarus: Uprising.\nRetrieved from \"https://grimadventures.fandom.com/wiki/Pandora?oldid=29278\"",

        "raw_content": "Browse the article Catastrophic Insurance\nWith catastrophic insurance, you save money if you're healthy. But if something drastic happens, you're covered.\nTrying to find the right health insurance policy for you and your family is tricky business. The whole point of having insurance is to protect yourself in case of an emergency, but when money is tight, you don't want to pay for coverage you don't need. If this situation sounds familiar, a catastrophic insurance policy might be right for you. In this article, we'll examine the pros and cons of catastrophic insurance plans.\nCatastrophic insurance is a type of fee-for-service health insurance policy that is designed to give protection against, well, a catastrophe. It is sometimes referred to as a High Deductible Health Plan because low monthly premiums are traded for a significantly higher deductible. This means that with this plan, routine doctor's visits and prescription costs are more expensive, but monthly premiums are lower. So you take on more out-of-pocket expenses in exchange for lower premiums. If you're healthy, you save money. But if something catastrophic happens, you're covered.\nBasically, you pay for what you need rather than what you might need. This means that once you meet the deductible, you pay the same percentage of the total visit fee, whether you are seeing a specialist for your diabetes or a general practitioner for a simple physical. Therefore, you are free to follow the best course of action to suit your health care needs.\nThere are two basic types of catastrophic plan: comprehensive and supplemental. A comprehensive plan offers coverage comparable to more traditional health care plans. There is still a high deductible and monthly fees are still relatively low -- but they're higher than those in supplemental catastrophic plans. The advantage of a comprehensive plan is that you can be covered for emergency services, like a trip to the ER or a ride in an ambulance, but at a lower monthly premium than a traditional plan. A supplemental plan is just that -- it acts as a supplement to other insurance plans you might have. Medical appliances, nursing care and psychiatric care might be included in a supplemental plan.\nIn both types of catastrophic insurance plans, once your deductible is met the insurance company covers the major medical expenses that it deems necessary, like hospital stays, surgeries, lab tests and intensive care. Like in other insurance plans, elective procedures are not covered.\nSo, you might have figured out by now that this type of insurance plan isn't for everyone. Let's find out who might benefit from them.\nCatastrophic Insurance Candidates\nComprehensive catastrophic health plans will cover trips to the emergency room.\nCatastrophic insurance is most popular with the self-employed, those whose jobs do not offer health plans, people with a lower income who are looking for a health care safety net, and healthy adults with low medical needs. The ideal customer for this type of insurance would be a healthy person with few or no monthly prescriptions who doesn't visit a doctor on a regular basis. The older generation that purchases catastrophic insurance does so to limit their financial liability should they have a serious event like a stroke or a heart attack. Also, traditional health insurance is often unaffordable for older people -- if they even qualify for it.\nHowever, trying to minimize health care costs by buying a catastrophic plan could work against you. If you have monthly medical expenses, like prescription drugs or supplies for a chronic condition, this kind of plan won't be of much use to you. There are several conditions that might get you excluded from any health insurance policy, but the list of conditions that would make you ineligible for a catastrophic policy is much longer. In addition, many catastrophic policies contain a clause that suspends coverage for maternity care until after a year of membership.\nIf you do fit the profile, though, this kind of plan could be perfect for you. That is why it is vitally important to be careful, thoughtful and deliberate when shopping for your health insurance.\n\u00adHealth Savings Accounts and Catastrophic Insurance\u00ad\nA Health Savings Account, or HSA, is an account into which you can make tax-deferred deposits to be used for qualified medical expenses. To get one of these tax-friendly accounts, you must be enrolled in a catastrophic insurance plan. There are several benefits to having a HSA: The funds stay with you even if you leave your employer or end participation in the catastrophic insurance plan, and you can invest the money accrued in your HSA, with all earnings sheltered from taxation.\nFor more information about catastrophic insurance, take a look at the links on the next page.\nIs Catastrophic Health Insurance Right For You?\nDo you get sick very often? Those who are often at the doctor\u2019s office would probably not benefit from catastrophic insurance, and those with chronic conditions would not qualify at all.\nDo you need monthly medications or medical supplies? A high deductible, sometimes as much as $5,000, needs to be paid before these medications or supplies would be covered.\nHow much can you afford to pay out of pocket for medical care? If you don\u2019t have the money to afford your high deductible at a moment\u2019s notice, like in the case of a car accident, this insurance isn\u2019t right for you.\nHow broad do you want your health plan to be? \u00adOnce you meet the deductible, catastrophic insurance will pay for all health care expenses deemed necessary.\nHow Generic Drugs Work\nMayo Clinic: Is an HSA Right for You?\nInsurance.com: Pros and Cons of Catastrophic Health Insurance\nInsurance.com: Pros and Cons of Catastrophic Health Insurance. http://www.insurance.com/quotes/Article.aspx/Understanding_Catastrophic_Health_Insurance_/artid/43\nU.S. Department of the Treasury: 2007 HSA Indexed Amounts. http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/public-affairs/hsa/07IndexedAmounts.shtml\nInsurance Information Institute: Glossary of Insurance Terms. http://www.iii.org/media/glossary/alfa.C/\nColorado Department of Revenue: Catastrophic Health Insurance. http://www.revenue.state.co.us/fyi/pdf/income30.pdf\nEzine: Catastrophic Health Insurance Coverage - Do You Need it? http://ezinearticles.com/?Catastrophic-Health-Insurance-Coverage---Do-You-Need-it?&id=575132",

        "raw_content": "How To Manage Being Color Blind\nColor blindness is a term used to describe various forms of color vision deficiencies. Individuals with the condition have problems with cells in the retina that detect color. These cells are called cones, and they contain the pigments that allow everyone to see color. Color deficiency or color blindness is the result of a missing or malfunctioning pigment(s). Patients with color deficiencies don\u2019t see certain colors in the same way most individuals see them. These deficiencies diminish the patient\u2019s ability to see colors or distinguish between two colors. Some individuals may not see color at all, which is a condition known as achromatopsia or total color blindness. Cataracts, genetics, or age can cause color blindness. It can also be caused by damage to the eye, optic nerve, or areas of the brain that process color. The most common forms of color blindness are hereditary and include red-green color blindness or blue-yellow color blindness. Sufferers are unable to see shades of these colors. Most patients who are colorblind can adapt. Learn how now.\nFocus On Lighting In The Home And Office\nColor blindness can cause poor vision in addition to problems with colors. Individuals who are color blind, at least to some extent, should focus on lighting in the home and office to combat these issues and ensure the optimum setting for every area. Lots of bright, natural light is ideal, but too much glare can defeat the purpose. It\u2019s best to watch television in a lighted room, but patients have to be careful of the placement of lights, as reflections on the television screen may cause glare. Dimmer switches can help individuals control the amount of light in the various rooms. Hallways and stairs should have sufficient amounts of light for individuals with poor vision to safely move. Light timers are also helpful in areas like entrances and exits. Install swivel lamps for direct placement of light where individuals need it. Kitchen and work areas can be outfitted with lighting where individuals are most active. They should ensure their light switches stand out by using lighted switch plates or contrasting colors.\nReveal the next tip for how to manage being color blind.",

        "raw_content": "From providing anti-tumor effects to relieving the side effects of chemo, the effects of CBD on cancer are amazing\nBeing diagnosed with cancer is one of the scariest things imaginable. The American Cancer Society estimates there will be 4,620 new cancer cases and 1,630 cancer deaths per day in 2016. Those are very high numbers that continue to grow every year. The average five-year cancer survival rate is only 59% with treatment. Most of these modern treatments have very extreme side effects. Because of these things, more people are turning to holistic healing and alternative therapies. Sometimes people use natural healing in lieu of traditional medicine. While some opt for no traditional treatment, people more often use natural methods in conjunction with traditional western medicine to battle the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. As a result of this interest, more research is being done on these natural alternatives, including CBD and THC.\nHow CBD effects cancer cells\nThere have been a number of studies that show that CBD shrinks tumors, prevents the spread of cancer, and causes cancer cell death. It also decreases how often and easily cancer spreads. Not only does it effect the main tumor, but CBD also targets any cancer cells that have already spread. Different cancers respond differently to CBD, but some of the major cancers that researches have studied are breast, lung, colon, gliomas, leukemia, and thyroid. This table shows some of the specific ways that CBD target these different types of cancer.\nAlong with providing anti-tumor effects, CBD also provides relief for patients who have side effects from cancer treatment. These effects are sometimes so severe they cause the patient to stop treatment completely. Even if we ignore the effects of CBD on the cancer itself, CBD\u2019s ability to relieve some or all of these symptoms is amazing. Research shows that CBD helps relieve a variety of side effects. These include nausea and anticipatory nausea, neuropathic pain, weight loss and loss of appetite and swelling in the hands and feet.\nIf you or a loved one are currently fighting this battle, CBD can help. The mental and physical tolls that come with being diagnosed with cancer are huge. Used on its own or to supplement other treatment options, CBD can improve the effectiveness of, as well as relieve side effects from, treatment.\nIf you are curious about CBD, but not sure if it\u2019s right for you, don\u2019t fear! Here at Hemp CBD News, we are very knowledgeable about different CBD products, and are happy to recommend Rocket CBD\u2019s product line. We have found them to be a trustworthy company that cares about people more than profit. They are currently giving away free samples.

        "raw_content": "Goodbye Alberta????\nDiscussion in 'Fugu's Business of Hockey Forum' started by FLYLine27*, Nov 30, 2004.\nDid you know Bettman can see into the future now? He saids The Flames and Oilers WILL NOT survive in the league if the they cant come to a good CBA. Funny Huh???\nhttp://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story.asp?ID=106456&hubName=nhl\nBTW I found this part to be the best:\nWhat Gary Bettman failed to tell his audience in Edmonton was that the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames were among the most profitable teams in the NHL last year when the (Canadian) dollar averaged 74 cents (US) and they were operating under our recently expired CBA,\" Ted Saskin, NHLPA senior director, said from Toronto.\nAnother POOR attempt by Gary to try to gain more support to the owners while once again he is doing NOTHING to solve the CBA but sit on his arse. If i didnt know Bettman or the NHL i swear I would think this guy is running for president with all the campaigning he does.\nHe also said fans of small market teams, like Calgary, can't have any hope of getting into the playoffs, let alone winning the Stanley Cup.\n\"Most franchises are doing better than they were, but franchises like this franchise and Calgary don't have a future if we don't fix this the right way,\" he said.\n\"Bettman, who met with the 38-member Edmonton Oilers Investors Group before visiting Calgary on Wednesday, said it isn't any fun for the fans of small-market teams that don't believe their teams have a chance at making the playoffs, let alone have a shot at winning the Stanley Cup.\nIn fact, Calgary came within one game of winning the Cup last season, losing to Tampa Bay in the final. Edmonton missed the playoffs but Forbes magazine said the Oilers ranked seventh in the league last season with operating income of $3.3 million US.\"\nGKJ, Nov 30, 2004\nCarl Spackler Registered User\nWow, the Oilers made 3.3 million in one year after continuous years of mad spending cuts and salary dumps...What an investment! Of course, the Oilers have been an economic powerhouse for years now...Everyone knows that running the team in Alberta is practically a licence to print money.\nThe teams should be able to expect a profit running their team every year. Why is it that the NHLPA thinks that the owners should be subsidizing their ridiculous salaries by running either at sustenance level or below? Name me many other industries where a good number of the employees make more salary in one year that the company does in profit. Would you be willing to risk losing money every year to ensure your employees make more than you do?\nThe league is not a charity and the owners are not there solely to provide a healthy income for the players. The problem is a system that continually jacks the values of players far above what they should be and then forces most of the teams to meet the continual raises or ice a non-competitive product. And bringing up the Flames miracle run last year just proves the point-it was the exception that proves the rule. How competitive were they for the decade before they rode a hot goalie and momentum to the final?\nCarl Spackler, Nov 30, 2004\nactually Calgary did win the cup becasue the scored in game 6 to win...\njoepeps, Nov 30, 2004\nCarl Spackler said:\nCouldn't agree more. The fact is that the Oilers and Flames will be hard pressed to survive if this CBA is not resolved with a cap. They made a profit because the owners are not willing to spend foolishly and they plain and simply can not afford to lose tons of cash.\nAnd about the NHLPA dishing more propoganda about the Flames coming one game away from winning the stanley cup, that is one year of success, and they make it sound like a small market team has as good of a chance at being successful as high market teams. Sure every once in a while, a team can put together a somewhat fluky combination of players with minimum salaries and have them peek at the right time to stay small market, but its only to short after that, the players demand raises and are either traded away or let go. Simple fact is, that small market teams cannot remain competitive for very long and remain small market.\nThis ultimately is about, who's trying to provide a more stable system for the league to operate under to provide long term success and keep the league healthy. Thats exactly what the Gary Bettman is trying to do. What the NHLPA is providing will provide none of this, A luxury tax will only spread out the losses evenly among the league. A 5% rollback on all salaries sure will save a little money right away, but when contracts come up for negotiation again, we're right back to wear we started. I like the idea of the rookie contracts being reformed, thats heading in the right direction, but in no way shape or form is even close to the answer to the leagues problems.\nIts about the health of the game, not about the owners trying to fill their pockets. Although I'm sure they wouldn't mind a little return on their investment rather than their pockets being emptied year after year.\nkerrly, Nov 30, 2004\nAnd what did the FLAMES prove to you...?? That you DONT need to spend foolishly to win a cup (came very close).\nNO THEY SHOULDN'T. They should expecct to be able to make a profit if they run their team successfully, market their product well to their fans, and maximize their revenue potential. If they run their team like the Rangers, they should be punished for it by losing money.\nI'm really amazed at how successful the NHL has been in getting fans to drink their kool-aid. Not only do fans believe that successful, grown businessmen need a babysitter to prevent them from making foolish financial decisions, but also believe that the NHL should be allowed to operate in such a way that they make a guaranteed profit, which no other business entity is entitled to. Can you imagine if AOL said \"our internet access is no longer fixed cost, instead our customers will be billed in such a way that we are guaranteed to make a profit every year\"?\nFreudian slips Registered User\ngrad school student\nIts not only about having a chance to win a Cup, which there are many examples of small markets making impressive runs and beating big spending teams, its about teams being able to consistently keep the players they have without losing them to wealthier clubs...\nUnder the current economic system there's no way Tampa could afford to keep their star players all together because they just do not have the revenues...teams like Philly, Toronto and others can keep their core together because of their financial advantages...\nAll we Oiler fans want, and other small market fans, is to keep the players we've accumulated without simply passing them off continuoulsy because they get too expensive to keep...\nFreudian slips, Nov 30, 2004\nYou play that season a million more times, and how many times do the Flames reach the final?\nSeachd, Nov 30, 2004\nYou cant ask questions like. Thats just stupid. What about The Canes making it to the finals...The Devils over and over? Do they spend? Nope.\nMrMackey Registered User\nIf you were to name all of the consistent Cup contenders over the last ten years, the Flames would not show up on that list (neither would the Lightning, Hurricanes or Anaheim).\nI think its obvious to everyone except the NHLPA apologists what is meant when they say 'you can't ice a contender on a small-market budget'.\nTo me, only Ottawa has been able to be successful with a tight budget, and their formula is very hard to replicate... but if other teams had restricted spending, OTT might've been able to fill some of the holes they've had for the past 5 years and would certainly be more competitive against spenders like NJ, Toronto and Philly.\nMrMackey, Nov 30, 2004\nMrMackey said:\nThe ducks YES...that was a one time thing.....but if you are telling me that you dont think the Flames could make the finals, or Tampa or the Devils then your wrong. They all have great teams and can make it there again.\nNice points, but subtract the Heritage Classic from the Oilers books and then review the bottom line...\nBring Back Bucky, Nov 30, 2004\nIt is obviously clear that the current situation pits a \"free market\" system against some degree of regulation (the extent of which is the main point of the labor dispute)\nMy opinion has always been that although NHL hockey is clearly a full fledged buisiness as much as say, making steel, it simply can't be treated the same way.\nThe goals of a hockey league and traditional industry are different. If the world has only say 3 major producers of steel, because all of the others have been inefficient, we accept that as part of the free market economy. The problem is that the NHL, by its definition, is a market with a set amount of firms. 30 or maybe 24 by the time we see the next NHL puck drop. The league and its members consent to this, rely on this and it forms a essential part of the stability of the league. Because the NHL is in essence a cartel, the 30 members of the league need each other to survive.\nIf the truest free market theories are followed, the league would arguably be left with only a handful of the most \"efficient\" teams.\ndw2927, Nov 30, 2004\nbwass11 said:\nAnd you will not get this under a cap system either, where player movement has been shown (in the NFL) to be faster than under any other model.\nIsn't that parity? Isn't that what everyone wants?\nThe Devils are top 10 in spending every single year. Actually, so are the Ducks.\nTampa has not been a contender until this year, and will not be able to afford all of Lecavalier, Richards, St. Louis, Khabibulin, Sydor, Modin, Boyle and Prospal once their contracts are up unless there is revenue sharing AND a restriction on spending.\nCalgary, IMHO, is not good enough to be considered a perennial contender with their current internal budgetary restraints (Sutter called it 'his own cap'). Iginla made 21% of the team payroll last year. However, if you think that Calgary will contend for years to come, then all the power to you. We won't be able to convince each other, I'm sure.\nThe league is not a charity\nThat's right. Its a business. If you can't generate enough revenue to survive, tough. Life aint fair.\nNo that's not parity.\nActually, that's not true either. The league is a non-profit organization that governs the teams.\nThe teams are businesses that are dependant on the other businesses' economic health. If 75% of the teams can't generate enough revenue to survive, then the league will collapse.\nTeams are run as businesses. The owners want a cap for business reasons. If 75% of the teams fail and the league folds, tough. Sports are like water. They will find their level and do well. There is no law that says there has to be 30 teams. If pro hockey can only survive as a 10 or 15 team league, there's nothing wrong with that. It should be embraced by those who love it, and the ones who don't don't need it forced upon them.\nX0ssbar Guest\nIf a player can't survive off of an average salary of 1.3 million a year, tough - life ain't fair....\nX0ssbar, Nov 30, 2004\nHow isn't that parity? If everybody's equal, then it all comes down to chance. Every team would have a 1/30 chance to win every year. Calgary happened to put it togehter(sort of) last year, they have a 3% chance to do it again.\nTop Shelf said:\nNo argument from me. Trust me, my argument against a cap has nothing to do with how much the players make. I couldn't care less. I just don't think a cap is the best solution for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that it does not address the league's real problem of lack of revenue.\nActually they didn't win it all, so its a 7% chance to make it to the finals again.... but I thought it was pretty clear by Seachd's statement that it would be less of a chance.\nParity would mean that each year teams have a 53% chance at making the playoffs (8 of 15), and from there a 12.5% chance at making the finals... where the winner would be given 50/50 odds.\nWhat Seachd's suggesting (the way I read it), is that low payroll teams like the Flames have a less than 50% chance at making the playoffs (maybe 2 of the 8 spots - 13%), and from there maybe a 10% chance at the finals, and once there, a major underdog against the higher payroll team.\nIn essence, he's saying: if you play that season a million times over again, it is less likely than normal, even odds that the outcome would be the same.",

        "raw_content": "While creditors have every right to attempt to collect what they are owed, there are debt collection laws in Tampa to which they have to adhere. During that period, the debtor is not supposed to be subjected to any kind of lies, harassment and deceitful tactics over the owed cash. When you discover that the agency that you owe money is crossing the legal line, stopping them legally is encouraged. That is when you need to consult a debt collection harassment lawyer Tampa.\nThough it may appear that a creditor has a right of calling you now and then, it is something you can stop when you feel it has closed the line. There is a way of stopping that even if the law does not outline it as a form of harassment. If it is necessary, you can contact a debt collection attorney, and that action will stop the frequent calls. A debt collection harassment lawyer is in a position to stop those phone calls and get you on the track to financial recovery.\nThe law is strict when dealing with agencies that misrepresent themselves. Some of the outlawed tactics include: falsely masquerading as lawyers or representatives of the government, claiming that the debtor has broken the law while that is not the case, or presenting a wrong owed amount. One should always watch out for anything said by these representatives. When you feel they have closed the line, it is time to give your debt collection lawyer a call.\nUnless a legal action has allowed them, creditors are not supposed to use legal threats when dealing with their delinquent clients. Threats such as arresting you, false claims about intending to take you to court, seizing your property or garnishing your wages are among them. Even if you believe or do not believe them, contact a debt collection harassment lawyer, Tampa to guide you through what is needed during such a period.",

        "raw_content": "Home | Blog | News | \u201cLuck of the Irish\u201d \u2013 revealed!\nSt Patrick\u2019s Day celebrations are all about the Shamrock and 4-leaf clover \u2013 the luckiest of Irish charms. Here at Holborn, when it comes to your finances, we prefer to rely on experience and expertise, rather than luck; but let\u2019s face it, there aren\u2019t many of us who would turn down a bona-fide lucky charm!\nMany of us have secret (or not so secret) superstitions and good luck charms: from footballers having lucky pants to Conservative MPs touching Margaret Thatcher\u2019s statue before a speech in the House of Commons!\nWhen it comes to the luck of the stock market, traders are some of the most superstitious of the lot. One Wall Street trader, Frank \u201cTony\u201d Cillufo, would order the same lunch every day when he was making money, until the market turned. For two years he ate only two toasted English muffins with jam for lunch: we can only hope the returns were worth it!\nA whopping 1 in 6 Brits refuse to walk under ladders, while 9 million believe that breaking a mirror brings seven years of bad fortune. Research conducted by the Betway group found that 5.8 million Brits admit to being superstitious; in reality, the figure is probably much higher.\nWould you make a large investment/place a large bet on Friday 13th? Do you find yourself saluting magpies discreetly, hoping that no one is watching? If luck were something that could be bottled, would you rush to fill your trolley?\nLuck or positive thinking?\nRichard Wiseman, professor of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, attributes our relationship with superstition and good luck rituals to a kind of neural trickery we play with ourselves. He says \u201cPeople can create luck and good fortune by changing their outlook on life, focusing on grabbing opportunities and creating positive expectations. It is possible, through neural programming, to think yourself lucky.\u201d\nHowever you look at it, most of us would like to think that there is something \u2013 an object, person, ritual, perhaps even our own attitude \u2013 that brings luck into our lives.\nBut in honour of St Patrick and in the spirit of the day, we thought we\u2019d turn our attention to \u201cthe luck of the Irish\u201d and that quintessential lucky charm: the shamrock.\nSt Patrick and the Shamrock\nMillions of people celebrate St Patrick\u2019s Day across the globe, including millions of Americans claiming Irish descent: some by drinking Guinness, painting themselves green, and donning one of those leprechaun hats with a Shamrock on it.\nComedy Irish stereotypes to one side, what does the Shamrock have to do with St Patrick? It is said that St Patrick used the Shamrock to symbolise the Holy Trinity to those he had converted, the leaves representing the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Although this is probably a myth, the Shamrock and St Patrick have become bound together in Irish folklore \u2013 the Shamrock a symbol of \u201cthe luck of the Irish.\u201d\nIs a Shamrock the same thing as a four-leaf clover?\nA four-leaf clover is a genetic mutation of the three-leaf clover \u2013 with it actually being the less lucky three-leaf clove that is called a shamrock, or sprig.\nIf you\u2019ve ever spent a sunny afternoon lazing on a patch of clover, you\u2019ve probably discovered for yourself that four-leaf clovers are extremely hard to find: that\u2019s what makes them special, and reputedly lucky.\nWhat are the odds of finding a four-leaf clover?\nAbout 1 in 10,000.\nThat didn\u2019t stop Edward Martin Sr from Cooper Landing, Alaska, from collecting over 100,000 four-leaf clovers. He currently holds the Guinness world record with a staggering 111,060 four-leaf clovers, which he has been collecting since 1999.",

        "raw_content": "We are grateful to the clergy, religious and parishioners past and present who developed and maintained the spiritual life of this parish. Our history is rich with spiritual and charitable works, tradition and activities; but just as importantly, it is rich with people through the years who have been so dedicated to the love of God and neighbor and continuing God\u2019s work.\nSt. John the Baptist Parish traces its origin to July 7, 1859, the day the first Holy Mass was celebrated in this early Nebraska settlement on the banks of the Missouri River. The first church was built in 1862. Our school, still named St. John the Baptist and opened in 1884, had a unique beginning. It was the parishioners who took the initiative in working for the establishment of a parochial school, and it was they who worked tirelessly to overcome all the obstacles that they met in reaching that goal. We are proud to say that this year we celebrate the 125th Anniversary of St. John the Baptist School.\nUntil 1891, all the Catholics in Plattsmouth were members of St. John the Baptist Parish. However, Czechs who had settled in the region desired their own parish and Holy Rosary Church was dedicated in 1891. As the years passed, it became evident that a national church for the Czech people was no longer needed. Plattsmouth\u2019s decline in population, coupled with a shortage of priests, influenced the decision to merge the two parishes.\nChurch of the Holy Spirit was formed in 1971 when the two Plattsmouth churches were merged into one. The two original parishes exist now only in memory, but their traditions of generosity of time, talent and treasure go on in a new setting.\nWe at Church of the Holy Spirit are making history each day as we continue on our journey. This web site is a brief look at our journey and reflects the many opportunities of involvement in the parish that each of us has to help build a better parish by serving God and others.\nWith the Holy Spirit as our guide, we continue our journey into the future\u2026.\nPastors who have served at Church of the Holy Spirit\n1971-1972: Rev.

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019re an avid gardener, why confine your passion for plants to the backyard? A street-side garden can enhance your home\u2019s curb appeal and satisfy your love to grow beautiful blooms. In some cases, a street-side garden can even be a low-maintenance alternative to keeping a lawn depending on the types of plants you choose to install. Keep the following tips in mind for creating a picture-perfect garden on the street-side of your home.\nAlthough you might be itching to get your hands in the dirt, be sure to take time to research the various plants you\u2019re considering for your street-side garden. You\u2019ll need to think about how much time you have to devote to your garden. If time is limited, you\u2019ll have to select low-maintenance plants. Often, plants that are native to your area make the best low-maintenance options. Take your soil and lighting conditions into account when selecting your plants.\nPlan the Design\nTo create your garden, you\u2019ll want to map out its look first. Aside from your plants, consider installing some hardscape features. You might choose a larger boulder or two to add some scale to the plot. Alternatively, you might create a paved border using bricks or decorative stone pavers. A plan gives you the opportunity to play with the design on paper before getting started on the ground.\nTo enhance your home\u2019s curb appeal, you may want to choose a garden type that will enhance the style of your house. On the other hand, you might want to select a type that is decidedly low maintenance such as a rock garden. Many plants that thrive around rocks like stonecrop or hens and chicks, for instance, are easy to care for. To enhance your garden\u2019s visual appeal, consider making a splash with a single-color garden. A single color like white or purple will make a dramatic impact on the look of your garden. Other options to consider include a cottage garden, herb garden, or even a fragrant garden.\nOften, the first step to creating a street-side garden involves the removal of the existing lawn. We have access to tools and equipment to make this task an easier one. If you\u2019re not accustomed to heavy lifting, be sure to contact us to help you ready the site. We can also deliver your top soil so that you have the best start for your new plants. Be sure to tell us if you need mulch. We can also deliver any amount you require whether you prefer rocks or organic materials like cedar chips. Once your site is prepared and your hardscape features are installed, you\u2019re ready to begin planting.\nDon\u2019t forget that we can help you with your garden\u2019s start! Certainly, we\u2019re known for our construction projects, but we\u2019re more than willing to tackle landscape projects as well. Contact us and tell us about your plans for your street-side garden. We can help you source materials and prepare the site for planting.",

It can now be heard in the clubs, on the radio and even well known artists are changing their sound to incorporate the popular beat. (Think Black Eyed Peas) Today, house music is the main star at festivals such as the Burning Man, Electric Daisy Carnival, Together As One, and the Winter Music Conference in Miami. I\u2019m stoked to highlight some of those events to you throughout 2011.\nSo what\u2019s in store for house in this new year? Well more opportunities are arising around the world for DJs to spin as more house music friendly dance clubs open up in major cities. Musical entertainment no longer consists of having artists perform and belch out a few songs on stage. People\u2019s preferences are changing and they want to bounce, jam and groove to the beats. We\u2019ll most likely see more collaborations between well-known DJs and popular hip-hop and pop artists. The music industry is changing, and change is always exciting in my book.

        "raw_content": "Dinosaurs, Extinction, mammals, mass extinction, Palaeontology, Universe\nFiled Under Dinosaurs, Extinction, Mammals, Mass extinction\nOver 90 per cent of mammal species were wiped out by the same asteroid that killed the dinosaurs in the Cretaceous period 66 million years ago, significantly more than previously thought.\nA study by researchers at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath and published in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology, reviewed all mammal species known from the end of the Cretaceous period in North America. Their results showed that over 93 per cent became extinct across the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary, but that they also recovered far more quickly than previously thought.\nDr. Nick Longrich from the Milner Centre for Evolution co-authored the study. Credit: Anthony Prothero, University of Bath\nThe scientists analysed the published fossil record from western North America from two million years before the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary, until 300,000 years after the asteroid hit. They compared species diversity before and after this extinction event to estimate the severity of the event and how quickly the mammals recovered. The extinction rates were much higher than previous estimates based on more limited data sets.\nDr Nick Longrich from the Milner Centre for Evolution, in the University of Bath\u2019s Department for Biology & Biochemistry, explained: \u201cThe species that are most vulnerable to extinction are the rare ones, and because they are rare, their fossils are less likely to be found. The species that tend to survive are more common, so we tend to find them.\n\u201cThe fossil record is biased in favour of the species that survived. As bad as things looked before, including more data shows the extinction was more severe than previously believed.\u201d\nThe researchers say this explains why the severity of the extinction event was previously underestimated. With more fossils included, the data includes more rare species that died out.\nFollowing the asteroid hit, most of the plants and animals would have died, so the survivors probably fed on insects eating dead plants and animals. With so little food, only small species survived. The biggest animals to survive on land would have been no larger than a cat. The fact that that most mammals were small helps explain why they were able to survive.\nYet the researchers found that mammals also recovered more rapidly than previously thought, not only gaining back the lost diversity in species quickly but soon doubling the number of species found before the extinction. The recovery took just 300,000 years, a short time in evolutionary terms.\nDr Longrich added: \u201cBecause mammals did so well after the extinction, we have tended to assume that it didn\u2019t hit them as hard. However our analysis shows that the mammals were hit harder than most groups of animals, such as lizards, turtles, crocodilians, but they proved to be far more adaptable in the aftermath.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t low extinction rates, but the ability to recover and adapt in the aftermath that led the mammals to take over.\u201d\nSurprisingly, the recovery from the extinction took place differently in different parts of the continent. The species found in Montana were distinct from those in nearby Wyoming, for example.\n\u201cYou might expect to see the same few survivors all across the continent. But that\u2019s not what we found,\u201d said Longrich. \u201cAfter this extinction event, there was an explosion of diversity, and it was driven by having different evolutionary experiments going on simultaneously in different locations.\n\u201cThis may have helped drive the recovery. With so many different species evolving in different directions in different parts of the world, evolution was more likely to stumble across new evolutionary paths.\u201d\nReference: N.R.

        "raw_content": "Posted by Ideal Practice June 17, 2016 Comments Off on Building Confidence in your Staff\nNo matter how smart and skilled your employees or contractors are, if they lack confidence that they can make a difference or that their voice will be heard, they\u2019ll perform below their potential.\n\u201cThe practice owner gave me this big new project to & get some new patients and said he knows I\u2019m the guy for the job. But I\u2019m not so sure. I could use a sounding board, but I\u2019m afraid I\u2019ll look stupid if I ask for help. I\u2019m not sure I can pull this off.\u201d\n\u201cMy Practice Manager is always telling me I\u2019m doing great, but she never gives me any details. I\u2019m not so sure. Quite frankly, I don\u2019t think she\u2019s really paying attention.\u201d\n\u201cMy Practice owner says I\u2019m his go-to guy with a certain type of patient. He\u2019s always telling everyone how good I am, but I think he\u2019s got me pigeon-holed. If he really thought I was that good, he\u2019d be expanding my role. I\u2019m beginning to wonder about my future here.\u201d\nIn each of these scenarios, the well-intentioned leaders were trying to build confidence, but their words aggravated the doubt.\nBuilding confidence requires real conversation, not surface accolades. It starts by understanding what\u2019s really going on. It requires getting into the muck and working a few levels below the obvious insecurity to understand what scares them.\nThe good news is that building confidence and competence go hand in hand. Confident employees or contractors are more likely to try new behaviours and approaches, which breeds creativity and more success.\nThese seven techniques will help you build a more confident, competent team:\n1. Treat them with deep respect.\nNo one wants to feel like a number. Connect with them personally and really listen to what is going on. Listen to the verbal cues they give about their lack of self-confidence and then treat them like the high-performers you know they are capable of becoming.\n2. Be specific about what\u2019s right.\n\u201cYou\u2019ve got potential\u201d will fall on deaf ears to someone who doesn\u2019t buy it. Be as specific as possible with examples when giving praise. \u201cWhen you said X, did you see the conversation change? You are making a difference.\u201d\n3. Have them teach others.\nTake note of their very best skills and gifts, and have them share with others on the team. If they know they\u2019re good at something specific, they\u2019ll be more apt to have the confidence to speak about it with their peers. If they resist, start with having them help someone one-on-one and then evolve to bigger gigs.\n4. Help them prepare.\nNothing builds confidence more than being the \u201csmartest\u201d guy in the room. The truth is, nine times out of 10, the \u201csmartest\u201d guy in the room is really the most prepared. Let them know that and ensure they do their homework by role playing the scenarios they\u2019re most likely to face. The next time it will be easier.\n5. Celebrate incremental improvements.\nHave you ever tried confidence bursts? They\u2019re like running or training bursts, followed by a period of \u201cactive recovery.\u201d You can build more confidence and competence on your team by training them in intervals. It\u2019s not the grueling hours, but the constant pushing on limits and stretching of competence levels that leads to growth.\n6. Scaffold achievements.\nSure, throwing an employee into the deep end and having them figure it out may build confidence, but only if they don\u2019t drown in the process. Far better to create a framework around them that provides support and check-ins along the way.\n7. Encourage them through mistakes.\nWhen an employee lacks confidence, even the smallest mistake will affirm their feelings of inadequacy. Help employees realise that failure is indeed a step to success. Teach them to \u201cfail forward,\u201d to make the most of their mistakes.\nYes, building confidence takes time and energy. It\u2019s worth it. It creates long-term impact for the employee or contractor, for the team and for your practice. Turning around confidence will rank high on your personal lifetime leadership achievement awards. No one will call it out, but you\u2019ll know, and so will they.",

        "raw_content": "Trump says Russia should be at G7 meeting, Moscow not so sure\nWASHINGTON (Reuters) \u2013 Russia should be attending a Group of Seven summit in Canada, U.S.\nPresident Donald Trump said on Friday, a controversial idea that even Moscow seemed to reject, as he headed for a chilly reception at the meeting where other leaders are set to clash with him over trade. Russia was expelled from what was then called the G8 in 2014 because of its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine.\nTrump\u2019s suggestion of readmitting Russia was unlikely to gain any traction at the gathering of the group that includes the United States, Canada, Japan, Britain, Italy, France and Germany. \u201cYou know, whether you like it or not, and it may not be politically correct, but we have a world to run and the G7, which used to be the G8, they threw Russia out, they can let Russia come back in, because we should have Russia at the negotiating table,\u201d Trump told reporters before leaving Washington.\nA senior British government source said Russia needs to change its approach before any conversation about it rejoining the G7 can begin. A French presidential source said Trump\u2019s proposal did not seem \u201ccoherent\u201d in view of the latest economic sanctions imposed by the United States on Moscow.\nThe Russian government also appeared to snub Trump\u2019s idea. \u201cRussia is focused on other formats, apart from the G7,\u201d Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in a brief statement reported by the government-controlled Sputnik news agency.\nHowever, new Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte threw his weight behind Trump\u2019s call for Russia to be included, saying on Twitter it would be \u201cin the interests of everyone.\u201d Trump was heading into a bigger controversy over trade as other G7 leaders, including host Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, have been angered by Washington\u2019s imposition of tariffs on steel and aluminum imported from allies including Canada and the European Union.\nPresident Donald Trump arrives for the official welcoming ceremony the G7 Summit in the Charlevoix town of La Malbaie, Quebec, Canada, June 8, 2018. REUTERS/Christinne MuschiAt least three of Trump\u2019s fellow Republicans in the U.\nS. Senate, all frequent critics of the president, assailed his suggestion of readmitting Russia to the group.\n\u201cThis is weak,\u201d Senator Ben Sasse said. \u201cPutin is not our friend and he is not the president\u2019s buddy.\nHe is a thug using Soviet-style aggression to wage a shadow war against America, and our leaders should act like it.\u201d Trump\u2019s presidency has been clouded by a federal investigation into Russian meddling into the 2016 U.\nS. election and possible coordination by people in Trump\u2019s campaign.\nBoth Moscow and Trump have denied any such activity. Senators Jeff Flake and John McCain, one of the Kremlin\u2019s fiercest critics, also denounced the idea.\n\u201cVladimir Putin chose to make Russia unworthy of membership in the G8 by invading Ukraine and annexing Crimea. Nothing he has done since then has changed that most obvious fact,\u201d McCain said.\nSenate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer criticized the Republican president\u2019s leadership. \u201cWe need the president to be able to distinguish between our allies and adversaries, and to treat each accordingly,\u201d he said in a statement.\nSlideshow (4 Images)Trump has periodically called for closer ties with Russia, although his administration\u2019s policy has included strong sanctions against Moscow. .\n\u2190 Insurer lobby group weighs in on Obamacare individual mandate case\nTwo people from U.S. Embassy in Havana evaluated for illness: State Dept \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Mathew from Park Hall, MD\nFrom Her Lips To God's Ears (Remix By Adrock) LP\nI'm not sure how someone managed to take one of the best tracks from Searching for a Former Clarity and make it awful, but here's the proof.\nThe complete removal of the original instrumentation of the song and looping some techno beat over Gabel's vocals makes you realize something. You realize that Tom Gabel and his band work very well together. The backing vocals, the drum and bass, and guitar are all necessary parts in the equation that has made Against Me great. This song does not function as a techno piece at all. It just feels very awkward. The original makes me want to dance and move, this just makes me shake my head.\nThis record appeals to the collector in me, but one spin of the remix was more than enough for me. I'll listen to the full length if I want to here the original song.\nMathew from Chicago, IL\nAppeal To Reason (Ecopak) CD\nI had been following this album very closely hoping all the while for any new taste of whats to come. I first heard Re-Education and I had to let it grow on me. Eventually, I heard Collapse, Entertainment, and Whereabouts Unknown. These seemed like pretty solid tracks and I had high hopes for the rest of the album. Unfortunately, it did not fulfill them in the slightest.\nFor the most part, this could have just been a collection of B-Sides from the Sufferer and the Witness. However, that's not true because Rise Against has been notorious for leaving some of their best material to B-Sides. I am looking forward to the slew of unreleased songs that are sure to surface like they did the year following he latter mentioned album.\nAs far as this album, there is nothing new from the band. Its pretty much everything you've heard in the last two major label releases from them. There are a few solid tracks: 1, 3, 9, 13, a few alright ones: 2, 11, 12, and the rest are forgettable. I think the only thing that makes this album standout from recent efforts is a return to introspective songwriting. The sad thing is that it worked better with Everlasting, and I wasn't much of a fan of that album. I listened to the album at least 20 times or more since I've had it, but i think that was because i was hoping to find something to love about it every time. However, I came up short each time. The fast tempo punk songs are limited and have been done better before. The opening songs are good and towards the middle, you just get bored because there is nothing to keep your attention.\nThe acoustic song is pretty ridiculous too. In the punk community, it hasn't been uncommon to find a song sympathizing with the unfortunate young soldier and Hero of War is just one more offer in an overcrowded mix of far better songs. My brother and I concluded that the reason they pissed in the guys hands is because he picked up a jellyfish. Its risky for a major label band to delve so strongly into the political frontier, but bands like Anti-Flag and Rise Against are bringing political minded songs back into the main stream. Most punks are well aware that there are more scathing and better political albums to check out, so this album will most likely be passed on by those in the underground.\nOne of the best things that can be said about the album is the 7\" that comes with the pre-order has a cover of Minor Threat on the B-Side. While this song has been covered into the ground already, its an awesome track that is hard to fuck up.\nI'm hoping that there will be some level of redemption to this album when it's played live. I'll be seeing them on 11/21 and I am actually very excited. Rise Against has a stellar live show that I can only imagine is made more amazing by playing in their hometown.\nMatt from Park Hall, MD\nAntichorus CD\nIf you do not own this cd, you are doing yourself a huge diservice. Hands down one of the strongest releases this year. THis album is filled with unrelenting hardcore anthems. Their lyrics are intelligent and the musicallity is quite enjoyable. There is so much anger and passion in the vocals that i first wondered if there was a new singer for the group. Its really hard to explain how good this cd is. All i can say is that if you like Red Lights Flash, Antimaniax, Connie Chaos, or Rentokill's previous works, you'll love this cd.\nInternal Salvation CD\nWhat can be said about this album? The word \"disappointment\" comes to mind. The first thing you notice about the new Unseen record is the immensely high production value. The vocals are a big let down. It sounds like Mark is shrieking and its almost unbearable at points. I dont know what happened to his voice, but its so different and nothing like he used to be able to do. Only a few songs stand out of this album stand out as good Unseen songs: Such Tragedy, At Point Break, Left for Dead, and Act the Part. Everything else really just runs together. It becomes difficult to discern one track from the next. Most of that is because you just really dont want to. Its everything you would expect from the Unseen, fast guitars, thrashing drums, but there are some key things missing. Namely, there are very few catchy choruses that their last albums contained and the bass is really hard to hear in most songs. I just dont see any of these songs being in huge demand when they play live. My only hope is that when i go see them at Warped Tour that they are still one of the best live shows around.\nWhen i first heard the single, \"Honest Goodbye,\" my jaw dropped. I could not believe that this was Bad Religion. The song was so slow and boring. The lyrics were terrible and it was nothing but whoas. It could have easily been any Weezer song. I was so worried that this was going to come to represent the rest of the album. Thankfully, it didn't.\nBad Religions follow up to Empire Strikes First surpasses it in almost every way, but at the same time combines elements of what they have been doing in recent albums. First, i want to address the issue of the track listing. I was saddened to see a song dropped for one. Second, i re-arranged the tracks on my iPod and listened to how it was supposed to be, and it functioned so much better. Like the last two albums, New Maps began with a bombardment of fast, hard songs. Then it grew into longer, more melodic tracks, before re introducing the earlier style, then closing on more slow songs. Before the adjustment, it was a refreshing mix. In addition, i think \"Submission Complete\" is a much better closing song with the fade out that it has.\nOnto the songs. Many of the tracks are strong and well written. However, they dont offer anything that we havent seen on an album before. For the most part, the songs remind me of a combination between No Substance, Empire Strikes First, and The Process of Belief. Not that there's anything wrong with that. There are a few tracks that stand out as magnificient and are refreshing. Those are Heroes and Martyrs, The Lost Pilgrim, Before You Die, New Dark Ages, Fields of Mars, and Reqiuem for Dissent. The rest of the songs serve mainly as filler. The only songs that are really disappointing are 52 seconds, the distorted vocals and lame lyrics just baffled me, and Honest Goodbye.\nThis album isnt groundbreaking and it wont change anyones mind who has never liked Bad Religion before. It serves as a nice album from a legendary band who still appreciates the value of honest music making. Although they are in their 27th year as a band, i still have faith that they have more greatness in them.\nBloody Irish Boys\nDrunk Rock CD\nI never fully appreciated how rocking this record is until i was drinking with my buddies one night and the song Beer is Good, Beer is Great came on. We decided to put the whole thing on and just enjoy being drunk and listening to rocking irish punk. This album is good beyond the drinking aspect, but thats when it is at its best.\nMatt from St. Mary's City, MD\nNo Heroes CD\nVery powerful album. The first half knocks you down without mercy. The second keeps you there with strong drawn out songs that make you glad they took on such ambitious sounds. This contains all of the brutality you have come to love from Converge. Great guitar work and even more amazing drumming. One of the best hardcore records this year. No reason not to buy this as soon as possible.\nYoung Machetes CD\nNow that this is out, its hard for me to pick which Blood Brothers album is my favorite. Burn Piano has so many amazing songs and i was blown away when i first heard it. March on is a fantastic example of what dual vocalists can do on an album. Young Machetes somewhat epitomizes what made every previous album great. They continue on with the vocal stylings of Crimes, but underneath there lies the power in the songwriting from March on and Piano Island. This is deifinitely one of the strongest releases of the year. Unlike Crimes, which i had to force myself to like after a while, i instantly fell in love with this record. If Crimes made you a little sad, then let Young Machetes be your Prozac. Spit Shine Your Black Clouds, We Ride Skeletal Lightning, Huge Gold AK-47. All winners.\nDirty Water CD\nOh Mark Lind, you and your side projects. This one was a bit short, but it had plenty of punch packed into it. Pretty much, what it comes down to, is if you like the Ducky Boys, Far From Finished, or any other Boston bred street punk sound, go for this record. It shant disappoint.\nStop When... CD\nNot quite as mind blowing as Free... but still a good listen. When i first heard Free... i loved the guitar tones and speed in the vocals and guitar. Stop When... seems to show the beginnings and development of what is now a great band. It seems that as the cd goes along, you can hear it evolving into the sound that emerged with Free... If you are down with the Austrian punk scene, then there is no reason not to get it.",

        "raw_content": "Work From Home Resources How to Earn More Money in 2016 as a Freelancer\nHow to Earn More Money in 2016 as a Freelancer\nIn a recent conversation I was having with someone, I mentioned how a 40 hour/week job can quickly morph into an 80 hour/week job, or even more, if one is not careful.\nMy friend\u2019s comment was simple and to the point. \u201cIf you\u2019re not tracking your hours, you could be working for less than minimum wage,\u201d he noted. \u201cAll your experience and training\u2026for a less than minimum wage job.\u201d\nThis is true in the world of employment, and it\u2019s certainly true in the world of freelancing.\nFor the \u2018love\u2019 of freelancing\nOftentimes as freelancers, we get caught up in the magic of creating content from scratch, or bringing marketing ideas to life, or learning about a software platform. We justify the time spent learning or researching as time devoted to becoming better at our craft. While this is a wonderful thing and oftentimes the reason why we became freelancers in the first place, it cannot justify earning less and less money.\nJust because you\u2019re a freelancer doesn\u2019t mean your time is free, nor are you any less valuable because you\u2019re a \u2018vendor\u2019 instead of an employee.\nIn light of this, here are some ways in which you can value yourself more, and consequently earn more money, in 2016.\nDon\u2019t quote by the hour\nThere\u2019s something about hourly rates that makes me think of sleazy hotels. More to the point, hourly rates are not recommended for several reasons.\nAs a freelancer, you\u2019ll naturally grow more adept at your craft with time and will complete tasks faster and better than when you first started in your profession. That means that projects will take shorter amounts of time to complete.\nIf you charge by the hour, that also means that you\u2019ll get paid less and less for projects that are completed. Even though you\u2019ll be at the top of your game and quite effective at solving your client\u2019s challenges, you\u2019ll actually make less than you did when you were a novice.\nThis is why charging by the project and not by the hour is of utmost importance. Doing so also helps you avoid the pitfalls of having your client micromanage your work time, or having a client balk when you quote an hourly rate of $100 or even $300/hour.\nIf you want to earn more money as a freelancer, you need to go beyond the title of freelancer and become a master. Don\u2019t just offer freelance writing or design work or programming. Instead, offer a complete service package that addresses the entire challenge your client is facing.\nFor example, if you are a freelance writer, don\u2019t just offer to write a feature article for a business. Instead, offer a comprehensive package that includes the following:\nRecorded customer interviews and source quotes.\nKeyword-researched headline and content.\nUnlimited article revisions.\nA basic marketing strategy, including social media and email announcements.\nPlus\u2026the article itself.\nDon\u2019t hesitate to promote your service in a package deal that is guaranteed to be the solution your client needs.\nStop that over-research\nIt\u2019s understandable that you\u2019re going to research some of your work topics in order to sound knowledgeable about them. However, you need to limit how much time you devote to research for the sake of the project.\nLet\u2019s say you are writing a 500-word article about a 10-year-old business. Many writers would approach this task by scheduling meetings with the business owner(s) (1-2 hours), driving to and from the business (1-2 hours), and reading about the business product line and history (3-4 hours).\nThat\u2019s almost a full day of work, and the article has yet to be started or edited.\nAlternately, you could look up a few online references that sum up your client\u2019s business (1 hour) and speak with the business owner via phone (30 minutes). You could then spend the rest of the day writing up the article and asking for feedback/edits from the client.\nIf you\u2019re earning $400 for this article, consider how over-research cuts your hourly pay by at least half. To stop the temptation of doing over-research, limit your fact-finding time to just an hour or two. Then, get to work on your task.\nSure, you might have to go back and fill in some knowledge gaps with another phone call or a second online search. But the chances of that happening are slim. Meanwhile, you\u2019ve already worked through a good chunk of your article and are ready to collect feedback from your client.\nMom-and-pop businesses, \u201cI-just-started-this-website\u201d individuals, etc. are not going to pay you enough money to support your freelance career. What will happen is you\u2019ll spend a good chunk of your time performing free research and helping to develop ideas. By the time you start your paid work, you will have spent tens of hours in unpaid time just to ramp up.\nHow do you avoid this problem? You qualify your clients before you even speak with them. This involves looking over the business and other credentials of your prospects and objectively determining if they can pay your desired rate. In most cases, this means that the client should be earning at least $5 million in yearly revenues. It also means that the client has a dedicated marketing team and/or has outsourced those functions to a third party.\nBy having a decent revenue stream of $5 million per year, your client can afford to pay you. By having a marketing department already in place (or outsourced), you can be assured that your client values such \u2018extraneous\u2019 services and realizes that there is a need for them.\nIn short, you should qualify those clients who can pay you your asking rate and who value your services enough to either have them going on in-house or outsourced.\nIf you\u2019ve been working with a specific client for a while, don\u2019t be shy about asking for a bump in your pay. Most clients would rather just pay you more money versus go out and find a new freelancer. If you\u2019re doing good work and the client is happy with you, there\u2019s no time like the present to ask for an easy 10% increase, for example.\nHow do you present a good case for a raise? Point to the success of your past work, how long you\u2019ve worked with your client, and the chance that you might have to go elsewhere. The worst that can happen is that your client says no.\nFreelance work, just like employed work, is a numbers game. You should be tracking how much time you\u2019re putting into your work versus how much money you\u2019re getting out of it. You should be predicting and achieving regular pay increases. Finally, you should be increasing your own mastery of your profession- and achieving higher pay as a result.",

        "title": "Belfast Blast: 48 Hours in Belfast, Northern Ireland | Taistealaiche",
        "raw_content": "Belfast is a historically diverse and eclectic city. It\u2019s historically one of the biggest shipbuilding behemoths of Europe, home of the shipyards that built the Titanic, the most tragic and beautifully engineered ships of a bygone era. Belfast has had it\u2019s political upheavals, but now is a blossoming, burgeoning city with a huge tourist industry. And food and entertainment to match. It\u2019s hard to choose a place to eat or drink, there are so many choices.\nMy decision to visit this amazing gem on the north of the island of Ireland was influenced by history and great beauty, and a fangirl urge. I wanted to see where the Titanic was built and experience some of the natural wonders of Northern Ireland I had seen in books and in one of my favorite television productions, Game of Thrones\u00ae. So after my tempestuous visit to Galway, I headed to the northern country for a 48 hour period of history and a locations tour of the countryside where filming took place. What an adventure.\nTitanic Museum and SS Nomadic\nI got of the train and settled in quick. It was a clear, puffy clouded day with long daylight hours of summer. I had only 48 hours in this town and had to get in as much legwork and sites as I possibly could. I hopped a taxi to the Titanic Museum on the shipyard docks to check out this architectural wonder and museum exhibit center. The building alone is worth a tour and crowns the historical docs that have built many a sea faring vessel. Going through the exhibit halls in and interactive affair and when you get to the bottom level, you have a great treat with an exhibit that mimics the seafloor and you, standing on it. There are exhibits of rooms on the Titanic and narratives of passengers and people who worked on the monstrous ship that should never have sunk. The engineering of the vessel was the most forward of it\u2019s day, but it was not match for the iceberg it met. It\u2019s a great museum for all ages and don\u2019t forget to visit the SS Nomadic which is part of the tour. It\u2019s a bit of a hike to the shipyards part of the exhibit, but worth it to see the drydocking works, the sheer size of the dock Titanic was housed in while building will amaze you and give you a sense of the size of the massive ship. Added bonus, you walk past the Titanic Studios where Game of Thrones is produced and filmed. If you are traveling this Fall, you may get lucky and see actors going in and out for final season.\nAll cities have neighborhoods, some great places and some not so good. Throw in some politics a traveler may not be aware of and you can get in some trouble. Belfast has come a ways from the Troubles, but remnants are still there. If you are touring around the city walking or in a cab, you will note neighborhoods and areas with flags of identity, with areas where religion and politics go hand in hand. You should always do some research about where you go, and not just the older history, for history is being made every day.\nI had a great conversation with a Scotsman on the way back to Glasgow on the plane. He had just marched in one of the Summer Marches with this extended family and friends. Most of the convo was about spending time with family and friends and participating. Nothing to do with the politics. Belfast has changed a lot in the last 30 years and will continue to do so. It\u2019s filled with warm people and smiles, pride of place, and cultural growth. A place well worth visiting.\nEveryone I met and everywhere I went I was met with kindness. But I didn\u2019t ask questions and always waited for someone to bring up anything. However, since I am a big street art fan, and one of the things I was most keen on this tour was mural walks. I started on one in the city, then found I had better think about that a bit, as the murals are very extensive, politics and religion laden in this city. But what street art isn\u2019t a commentary on the times? There are a huge amount of murals. There are political and community ones. If you plan on doing the while walk, plan for several hours. The neighborhoods where people are still very aligned with religion, staying with the UK, becoming independent, or unifying with Ireland are there. I toured the areas I could manage to get to in the short time I had and met with, briefly, a fiercely proud people going about their day or evening activities.\nWhat I have to say is that I saw a lovely city with people living and thriving just like any other, and while the past will not be forgotten, I felt that people were truly just living in this great city. I would say that you just have to be mindful as in any city, that you are not living there, you are a visitor. Just love thy neighbor, even if they are yours for five minutes. The city has much beauty about it. I stayed near the Queen\u2019s University, a great foodie area with a few guesthouses with easy access to transportation. A great walking area and that I did.\nGame of Thrones\u00ae Tour\nI have to admit that this particular tour was the one big blast that I absolutely had to have for my time in Ireland. Having been a fan of the series since day one, when I found out tours to various sites used in filming were being included in a tour, I had to book.\nUsing Viator.com, I booked with the Irish Tour Tickets company for their Game of Thrones Tour with a guide, Adrian, who has been an extra on the series and knows in depth trivia and information about sites used. We went to several locations including Giant\u2019s Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede bridge, two places I have wanted to see for many years. The tour was packed with fun, behind the scenes information and a great understanding of what it takes to get some of these sites ready for filming. Oh, and you better bone up on your GOT facts, because Adrian has a mean bus quiz for points on the last leg of the trip, with prizes. If you are an enthusiast and fan of the series, don\u2019t miss this fun tour. Adrian has a lot of fun tidbits from BTS and will give you insight on what it is like to be an extra on such a big show.\nBirthplace of a Shadow Assassin\nWarning: as with all tours, you should dress for travel, but especially on this tour. Wear trainers or hiking boots, no dress shoes or sandals. This is a very physical, climbing around, adults only tour.\nAs part of this tour you will see the Dark Hedges, a long, spooky line of trees between fields. People have been coming to see the feature for years now, and the trees are sadly at the end of their life. Two trees came down in a storm recently and the wood was used to create a series of doors dedicated to the Game of Thrones series Westeros locations. You can download the maps to tour for Game of Thrones Doors and seek them out while you tour the north of Ireland.\nReality check: Yes, many of the Northern Ireland Game of Thrones\u00ae locations, with a few exceptions, are really car parking areas during summer months. Tourism is so invasive that they are having to build and reconsider tourist attraction areas in the north. The spaces are built up for the shoot then cleaned up. Exception, there is one secret place we went by where there are guards that deny access year round. Winterfell perhaps?\nBring cash for other tours. Each tour usually has an additional attraction that is part of their route, and you will need to pay other fees.\nOn this tour you will see where scenes were filmed and two additional sites:\nNatural wonders the Giant\u2019s Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede bridge\nFilming locations for Game of Thrones\nCave birth of the Shadow Assassin\nBrienne\u2019s first sword fight for Renly Baratheon\nDark Hedges (The Kingsroad) See them while you can, they are planning on closing the area to tourism due to vehicular damage to the trees root systems.\nAfter the 10 hour tour, I was fatigued and dead hungry. I wandered downtown Belfast a bit and was concerned about getting to a kitchen that was still open, on Sundays sidewalks still roll up on the island, and pub and other kitchens will only be open so late. I found a great Japanese fusion restaurant called Zen, a huge cavernous place with great food. Filled up so much it was a hard walk back to the B&B.\nThe Game of Thrones\u00ae Doors story and self guided tour\nhttp://www.ireland.com/en-us/what-is-available/ireland-on-screen/game-of-thrones/destinations/northern-ireland/county-antrim/articles/doors/\nhttp://visitbelfast.com/things-to-do/theme/game-of-thrones\nThis entry was posted in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Tours, Travel by Janet Canning.

        "raw_content": "Steve Karnowski \u2013 The Associated Press\nSOUTH ST. PAUL, Minn. \u2013 A key congressional voice on agriculture, U.S. Rep. Collin Peterson of Minnesota said Tuesday that he\u2019s optimistic that lawmakers can pass a new farm bill next week after a delay caused by the break for the funeral of former President George H.W. Bush.\nPeterson, the top Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee, who\u2019s expected to become chairman next year, was heavily involved in negotiations that produced an agreement in principle last week among the top committee leaders in both the House and Senate. He said at a news conference that the final bill will get filed Monday, that he expects the House will take it up next Wednesday or Thursday, and that the Senate could then take it up the next day.\n\u201cWith any luck it\u2019ll be out, it\u2019ll be passed by the end of next week. But knowing how things go around here, it may drag into the week after,\u201d Peterson said. \u201cBut I think we are going to get this thing done before the end of the year.\u201d\nThe farm bill governs farm subsidy and other agricultural programs, but by far the largest chunk of its more than $400 million in spending for the next five years goes to food stamps for the poor. As part of the final deal, House Republicans dropped their push for stricter work requirements for the program, which for months was the biggest sticking point because of opposition from House Democrats and many Senate Republicans.\nPeterson said the bill isn\u2019t everything he wanted. He said he couldn\u2019t win support for putting additional money into the bill above the levels set in the 2014 farm bill, so it wasn\u2019t possible to raise target prices for farmers who\u2019ve been slammed by low commodity prices that have been depressed even further by the U.S. \u2013 China trade war.\nThe bill, therefore, largely maintains the status quo, he said. The biggest winners will be milk producers, he said, because the legislation fixes a dairy safety net program created under the 2014 farm bill that didn\u2019t work. Participating farmers with about 240 cows or less can now expect to at least break even, he said.\n\u201cIt isn\u2019t the best possible bill, but it\u2019s the best bill possible,\u201d he said.\nLincoln Journal Star \u2013 December 5, 2018",

        "title": "Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus: A Review - END OF GOD",
        "raw_content": "Bonhoeffer\u2019s Black Jesus: A Review\nPublished on: December 26, 2014 April 21, 2018 Author: Josh de Keijzer Comments: 2\n\u201cBonhoeffer\u2019s Black Jesus\u201d is a marvelous addition to the growing literature on Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology. The author, Reggie Williams, provides us with a perspective on Bonhoeffer that highlights the influence Bonhoeffer underwent during his time in New York as a foreign student at Union Theological Seminary. While it has been known that Bonhoeffer\u2019s exposure to black Christianity as he frequented Abyssinian Baptist Church did significantly impact him, it has been never thoroughly investigated what this impact consisted of or what effects it resorted. This makes sense since the margin is always filtered out as trivial, and black thought still often plays only a marginal role in white academic theological discourse even when it comes to Bonhoeffer studies. Reggie Williams\u2019 book is a worthy read for the following reasons:\nAnalysis of the \u201cblack situation\u201d\nThe book paints a picture of the Harlem Renaissance, the nascent movement of black consciousness and intellectual self-analysis that provides the backdrop for Bonhoeffer\u2019s exposure to black Christianity and black criticism of imperialist white-privileged culture. Many thinkers who identified with the Harlem Renaissance were not averse to Christianity, even though it presented itself in a form that condoned and sanctioned oppression of blacks, but redefined it in terms of the presence of God in Jesus with the oppressed: a black Jesus. In order to make his point Williams provides a developmental account of how Euro-centric imperialism and bias against color went hand in hand. He shows how Western theology was part and parcel of this cultural outlook and contributed to it in the form of (a) the imagination of a white Jesus who sides with the colonizer and imperialist, and (b) the creation of a distance between theological thought and praxis in order to soften the obvious discrepancy between the praxis demanded by the Gospel on the one hand and the white imaginary Jesus of the dominant culture on the other. He applies Dolores Williams\u2019 model of theological engagement with racism (horizontal encounter, vertical encounter, transformation of consciousness, and epistemological process) to Bonhoeffer\u2019s development during his time in Harlem. Reggie Williams\u2019 book may as such serve as a meaningful introduction to black thought and literature and may help to see important aspects of 19th century Western history in a different framework.\nAnalysis of Bonhoeffer\u2019s situation\n\u201cBonhoeffer\u2019s Black Jesus,\u201d though highly readable and accessible, makes a strong and academically sound case for the importance of the influence of the Harlem Renaissance on Bonhoeffer. Williams argues that Bonhoeffer\u2019s pre-New York theology, although having very strong christocentric tendencies, still lacked both a theoretical account of why (and an application of how) the consequences of discipleship should manifest themselves in theology and the life of the Christian. In fact Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology was impaired by the widespread national malaise in Germany as the result of losing World War I. Bonhoeffer shared the romantic nationalism that sought a restoration of the German \u201cVolk\u201d in its glory and openly confessed that any ethical demand from the Gospel could be set aside for the sake of attaining that nationalistic goal. Williams points out that it was not Union Seminary itself that changed Bonhoeffer. In fact he was quite critical of the American theology he encountered there. No, it was the encounter with black Christianity that afforded him a look at the world from \u201cbehind the veil\u201d as Williams, following Du Bois, calls this. Being with Abyssinian Baptist Church helped Bonhoeffer see the world from the perspective of the oppressed black individual. It was the place where he saw a church in which \u201cChrist existed as community\u201d in ways he had not seen before. It provided him with (a) an understanding of the plight of the marginzalized in the world who are not able to participate in the narrative of the center\u2014Bonhoeffer came face to face with the Black Christ of the black Christians\u2014, (b) a critical perspective of the main (white) narrative of the center that one can only gain from not being in the center, and (c) a hands-on approach of how a church ought to conduct itself in a context of marginalization. This understanding and approach would help him later to take a decisive stance, right from the beginning, against the nazi oppression of the Jews in Germany.\nI do not believe this is all that can be said about Bonhoeffer\u2019s development in terms of the integration of discipleship in his theology\u2014and I do not suggest that Williams is of that opinion. Luther\u2019s theology and phenomenology play important roles as well in Bonhoeffer\u2019s world and action affirming theology. I do think, however, that with the introduction of the black perspective in Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology as an important factor we have an important piece of the puzzle that was missing thus far. In my own research into the theological method of Bonhoeffer, I have gained a few important insights (I hope), but I was still puzzled how Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology was both innovative and academic while at the same time being infused with a very strong emphasis on a socially oriented discipleship. I think, with this book, Williams has provided important clues to solve that riddle.\nBonhoeffer\u2019s legacy, including his encounter with the Black Christ, is more than something of historical interest. His move from an ethnocentric theology to a true christocentric one in which Christ was seen as belonging to the oppressed\u2014one in which the call to obedient action was to be obeyed, one in which self and one\u2019s own group were not elevated above others or spared suffering\u2014is a move that has great relevance for our situation (and here the book review turns into a prophetic rant). When I take a hard look at the evangelicalism that forms my own background, and especially its North American version, I see a split personality, an unresolved theological tension, that is in some respects similar to Bonhoeffer\u2019s pre-Harlem theology. German nationalistic liberal theology meets evangelicalism! This is the case in two ways.\nFirstly, evangelical theology has a kind of abstraction that doesn\u2019t seem to be able to meet people\u2019s needs where they are at. It does so perhaps on an individual basis, but not at the structural level of culture, state, and international relations. Evangelical theology is premised on the idea that Scripture is the sole source for theological statements and theological construction. Many evangelicals envision the theologial task to consist of taking propositional statements from the Scriptures and use them as declarative divine statements about God, humanity, and world. The assumption that leads to this approach is itself not sufficiently warranted. It needs itself to be based on the idea that Scripture in fact works this way. All the right things are being said: the need to follow Jesus wherever he calls, the need for obedience, the need to love neighbor, etc. But somehow it seems to remain hanging in mid-air. Reality itself is not really touched by this kind of theology. Reality (that is: the reality of the oppressed and the question of our involvement in doing something about these particular oppressed today in this society or beyond its borders) is only allowed to participate in forming our theology to the extent that it conforms itself precisely to the \u201cbiblical situation\u201d as evangelicals have interpreted it with their propositional method.\nSecondly, we evangelicals, subconsciously use this kind of theology to insulate ourselves from true responsibility in the real world. The cost of discipleship would demand of us to come out of our comfort zone and address the truth of the inequality of black people in this nation, the economic oppression of millions in the non-Western world through Western policies, or the raping of nature by the incessant drive toward profit and corporate expansion. By personalizing faith as a private affair that affects one\u2019s personal vertical relationship with God in Jesus, we evade the task at hand. By busying ourselves with the proclamation of a Gospel that has a predominantly other-worldy goal, we parade a Jesus that has nothing to say about lynching tree, concentration camp, or genocide. In fact, by our non-involvement we save Jesus from defilement with this evil world. But of course we really try to save ourselves from true discipleship and prefer to align ourselves with the main narrative of an affluent suburbia that has no interest in changing the status quo. Evangelicals rightly talk about the lordship of Jesus and his claim on our lives, but do so by means of a strict dichotomy by merging this lordship with a narrative that favors the political and economic powers that seek to preserve capitalism and imperialist policies, just as the early Bonhoeffer subsumed the christocentric theology of his dissertation to national aspirations at the expense of those who might have to suffer for it.\nWe evangelical christians stand in need of an encounter with the oppressed and need to ask them to provide us with a look from \u201cbehind the veil\u201d at the world as it truly is. It is a world in which Christ does not triumphantly march on toward ever more progress in name of the nations of the Western world, but one in which Christ is the suffering servant, who dwells, oppressed, exploited, in the gutter of the world. Only when the primary locus for our theology becomes the place where Christ is in this world, will we be able to become true disciples of Jesus. Reggie Williams shows us how and where the transformation from a privileged to an engaged theologian is to be located in Bonhoeffer\u2019s life. He convincingly shows how Bonhoeffer\u2019s talk about cheap and costly grace comes straight out of the Harlem experience. We stand much to learn from the margin that was the Harlem Renaissance and is today (among other margins) the analysis of oppression, racism, bigotry, and dominance in black liberation theology.\nAs such Williams provides us a greater service than simply adding a new insight to Bonhoeffer scholarship. For those of us (\u201cus\u201d as in, let\u2019s say, white theologians) who are willing to gain the perspective behind the veil and see the world with black eyes and gain an introduction to black thought, Bonhoeffer\u2019s iconic status within theological scholarship and the wider Christian world, may, with the aid of Reggie Williams\u2019 contribution, help us go through the theological transformation Bonhoeffer underwent in Harlem. If only we don\u2019t shy away from the implications for discipleship it brings.\nCategories: Bonhoeffer, English, Evangelicalism, racism, Reviews and tagged in: black thought, discipleship, Harlem Renaissance, imperialism, liberation theology, racism\nPrevious Post Previous post: The Atheism of Discipleship\nNext Post Next post: Bonhoeffer\u2019s Dialectical Christocentrism\nAlexisJuicy says:\nI often visit your website and have noticed that you\ndon\u2019t update it often.

Alkhalefa Affiliation\nAli M. Alkhalefa Town Planner at Ministry of Housing, Kingdom, Bahrain\nSocio-Alive Building is Architecture where people enjoy being around to live within its environment and want to come back after leaving. This paper discusses the terminology of Socio-Alive Building and identifies the building characteristics which make a building social and alive. The main aim of this paper is to discuss the concept of alive-socio building as an approach to keep the building alive and have social role through the consideration of characteristics of socio-alive building. The paper begins by introducing the definitions of Socio-Alive Building and then discusses the characteristics of Socio-Alive Building to construct a theoretical background, then reports the outcomes of a survey in Bahrain to find out perceptions of people of Bahrain toward building characteristics, which could produce socio-alive build environments. A people\u2019s survey concluded significance scale factors of building characteristics that achieve the sociality and alive of the building in Bahrain which were used to evaluate Bahrain City Center. The paper offers ten compromised building characteristics that can produce Socio-Alive with certain significance scale of each. The authors argue that these could be considered during design process to produce socio-alive buildings.\nKeyword : alive architecture, Socio-Alive Building, Building characteristics, public space, form, Bahrain urbanization\nAl-Yaqoobi, L.

        "raw_content": "Two authors. Two books. Lets do this.\nAgain, this first book is not a book for everyone. But if you\u2019re interested in understanding how to better deal with anxiety, stress, or how to better deal with that tightness that you get in your chest every time you begin to worry, then this is the book for you. I feel like a broken record anytime I go to speak about meditation so I very rarely like to talk about it unless someone is interested, but the reason that you can\u2019t get me to shut up about it is because it\u2019s probably one of the biggest positive driving forces in my life. Now don\u2019t think that because this book is about Buddhism you now have to become a Buddhist. I think that the best part of the Buddhist practice is that there\u2019s not a whole lot of dogma involved. When you get past all the complex jargon that is usually associated with Buddhism let alone religion, it\u2019s pretty simple. Here\u2019s the problem with people. Here\u2019s why we experience this problem. Here\u2019s how to fix this problem. Try it out for yourself and see if it works. Boom. Buddhism for dummies. But if there\u2019s any rabbit hole worth going down, the rabbit hole of Buddhism should be the one. Why you ask? Because that rabbit hole is no more than those four steps and those four steps can very much significantly impact you\u2019re life for the better.\nNow just to tie in those four steps or Four Noble Truths as they\u2019re referred to in Buddhism I\u2019m going to go on a quick side tangent. The First Noble Truth: realizing that everyone suffers, physically or mentally. The Second Noble Truth: understanding that suffering comes from craving alongside ignorance. Craving things that can never fully fulfill you (pleasure, material objects, status), and then an ignorance for not being able to see the world exactly as it is. As Stephen Batchelor puts it, \u201cAs with anguish, letting go begins with understanding: a calm and clear acceptance of what is happening\u2026.Letting go of craving is not rejecting it but allowing it to be itself: a contingent state of mind that once arisen will pass away.\u201d The First and Second Noble Truths describe the problem with us flawed humans, whereas the Third and Fourth Noble Truths are resolutions on how we can start to work on that folly. The Third Noble Truth: the cessation of suffering by removing desire and ignorance. And The Fourth Noble Truth: the path to the end of suffering, its resolution through the steps of the EightFold Path.\nDid you need to know all of that? Not entirely. But there\u2019s definitely merit behind it.\nAs for the book, it does get pretty in depth with Buddhism, but what I appreciate about it is that it does so in an elegant way. Stephen Batchelor is an extremely well written dude and does a solid job of breaking down the principles of Buddhism in a way that\u2019s somewhat easily digestible.\nNow, if you have zero desire to learn about the teachings of Buddhism but meditation is still peaking your interest, then this next book is probably the approach you should take. 10% Happier by Dan Harris. I actually wrote a step by step guide on how to meditate a while back where I included a slight recap of this book, but for the sake of this blog I\u2019ll talk about it again and at the end I\u2019ll leave the link to \u201cGetting Still\u201d if you want to check out more about meditation. The wit and skepticism that Dan uses throughout the book make it an easy and enjoyable read. Dan brings a very honest approach to meditation as someone who use to be a skeptic and that\u2019s why I think so many people gravitate towards him. He doesn\u2019t go over the deep end with mediation saying that it\u2019s the end all be all. Quite the opposite. He believes that at the end of the day, meditation can make you 10% happier. That\u2019s his \u2018shtick\u2019 as he likes to call it. Awesome book. Awesome dude. Definitely recommend this one or you can checkout his podcast.\nBuddhism Without Beliefs:\nStandouts: \u201cFocused awareness is difficult not because we are inept at some spiritual technology but because it threatens our sense of who we are. The apparently unthreatening act of settling the mind on the breath and observing what is occurring in the body and the mind exposes a contradiction between the sort of person we wish to be and the kind of person we are.\u201d\n\u201cThe greatest threat to compassion is the temptation to succumb to fantasies of moral superiority.\u201d\nRecommended for: Anyone interested in learning more about Buddhism. Anyone interested in learning about meditation. Anyone working on trying to be less of a piece of shit.\n10% Happier:\nStandouts: : \u201cMake the present moment your friend rather than your enemy. Because many people live habitually as if the present moment were an obstacle that they need to overcome in order to get to the next moment. And imagine living your whole life like that, where always this moment is never quite right, not good enough because you need to get to the next one. That is continuous stress.\u201d\n\u201cThat notion really struck me: until we look directly at our minds we don\u2019t really know \u201cwhat our lives are about.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s amazing\u201d I said, \u201cbecause everything we experience in this world goes through one filter-our minds-and we spend very little time bothering to see how it works.\u201d\nRecommended for: All the skeptics out there hating on meditation. Anyone who thinks that meditation \u201cwon\u2019t work for them.\u201d Anyone looking for a good laugh. Anyone who\u2019s experienced a crippling anxiety attack.\nGetting Still \u2013 https://justinalito.wordpress.com/2016/10/05/getting-still/\nCategories Book ReviewsTags 10%happier, buddhism, buddhismwithoubeliefs, buddhist, danharris, meditation, mindfulness, stephenbatchelor\nPrevious THE WAR OF ART\nNext EGO IS THE ENEMY",

In my JV placement as the asylum intake coordinator for the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, I am the first point of contact for potential clients who are interested in applying for asylum or who must do so, to try to stop imminent deportation to their country of persecution.\nAs I work in legal services, I cannot legally tell you my clients\u2019 stories, but I can tell you my story. Like what it means to interview a military deserter from Eritrea, a county in east Africa, who was tied up and left in the desert sun for a week because his supervisors believe he is anti-government, a common experience. Or the devastation I feel as I fumble through an intake in Spanish with a domestic violence survivor from Honduras who has so internalized the anti-woman messages in her society that she will not call what her ex-spouse did to her rape. Or, I can tell you what it means to be a United States citizen, college educated, woman of color, assessing an asylum claim of a Gambian woman who was subjected to female genital mutilation when she was young because her state thinks that her body is dangerous and must be blotted out\u2026\u201d\nPlease CLICK HERE to read Maria\u2019s reflection in its entirety on our website.

        "raw_content": "agayutem yui: people of god \u2013 jvc northwest blog\nThis month\u2019s Featured FJV is filmmaker Bridget Power (Gresham, OR \u201912-13, Bethel, AK \u201913-14) who was moved by the spirituality of the Yup\u2019ik Catholic people she met while living in Bethel during her time as a Jesuit Volunteer. In this post she explores the process of making a short documentary about the role of women in sustaining spiritual communities in Southwestern Alaska.\nDuring my second year as a JV, I attended a retreat hosted by the Forum for Theological Exploration (FTE) and learned about FTE\u2019s Ministry Exploration and Mentoring grant. My Bethel housemates encouraged me to apply, and I was fortunate to receive the grant. The grant from FTE allowed me to travel back to Alaska to film in Bethel and St. Mary\u2019s during Easter 2015.\nBridget and her Bethel JV Community\nAs a JV in Bethel, I got to know Susan Murphy, who exemplifies what it means to live a life of service and faith. Susan is a respected elder in Southwestern Alaska and a leader for the Catholic Church in Bethel. I was inspired to make a short film that examined ministry in light of the experiences of Susan and other lay Yup\u2019ik women in the Yukon Kuskokwim Delta. They offer insights that are helpful for examining leadership for spiritual communities in other places. These women also raise questions about the future of Catholicism as a sacramental church. I continue to think about these topics as a graduate student pursuing a Masters of Divinity. I\u2019m learning from people from different traditions and discerning my personal vocation as a lay, Catholic woman who hopes to use storytelling and media for social change.\nBridget picking berries on the tundra.\nDocumentary filmmaking can be subjective and colonialist. I am a privileged, white, Catholic woman from the lower forty-eight, making a film about Yup\u2019ik, Catholic communities in Southwestern Alaska. Despite my appreciation and reverence for Yup\u2019ik spirituality and culture, my identity as a filmmaker cannot be extracted from this film. I craft a film in the way that I ask questions and then select, omit, and arrange footage during the editing process. I represent other people\u2019s perspectives on screen, so I strive to recognize and honor their experiences. How different would this film have been if I could have spoken to some of the participants in their native Yup\u2019ik language, as a Yup\u2019ik person, from the Yukon Kuskokwim Delta? Despite the limitations and controversies of documentary as an art form, I felt like it was still worth trying to raise some questions about leadership, culture, and change through this medium. The dialogue is in English, although I hope that the dialogue will be translated into Yup\u2019ik and other languages so that the film can be more accessible. The title of the film is in Yup\u2019ik. When possible, I used participants\u2019 Yup\u2019ik names. The film features Yup\u2019ik music and Yup\u2019ik collaborators.\nI was able to make this short film thanks to the generosity of so many people from the Yukon Kuskokwim Delta and beyond, including the \u201914-15 Bethel Jesuit Volunteers, Sr. Kathy Radich, and Sr. Ellen Callaghan, who let me stay with them. Bryon Nicholai of Toksook Bay and Mike McIntyre of Bethel let me use their music, and Victor Bee of Bethel let me use his drone footage. Elena White-Aluskak translated the title of the film.\nClick here to learn more about the \u201cAgayutem Yui: People of God\u201d project and to watch the film or to contact Bridget. Agayutem Yui premiered at the Anchorage International Film Festival in December 2016.\nBridget Power started making documentaries with friends as an undergraduate at Georgetown University. She loved her time as a Jesuit Volunteer at Catholic Charities\u2019 Housing Transitions Program in Portland, Oregon and the Tundra Women\u2019s Coalition in Bethel, Alaska. She is currently a graduate student at Harvard Divinity School, where she continues to make films.

The exhibition, developed and curated by the Jewish Women's Archive (JWA), a national organization committed to transmitting the rich legacy of American Jewish women, captures the voices and preserves the stories of thirty Baltimore Jewish women who have lived through much of the last century. Using oral history, photography, and original works of contemporary art to interpret the women's lives, the exhibition will inspire and transform the way visitors view Jewish women's contributions to their families, institutions and society at large. It will remain on exhibit through July 18, 2004.\nAn opening reception for Weaving Women's Words will be held for the public at the JMM, at 15 Lloyd Street in Baltimore on March 28, 2004 from 1-4 p.m. For additional information about the opening and the exhibition, the public should call 410-732-6400, ext. 14.\nThe Jewish Women's Archive has also planned a series of events that will be held throughout the Baltimore area to complement themes explored in the exhibition. The events will launch with a symposium, \"Jewish Women Building Community,\" featuring best-selling author and cultural observer, Gail Sheehy, on Monday, March 29 from 9:30 a.m.\u201312:30 p.m. at the Maryland Institute College of Art's Brown Center in Baltimore. Tickets to the symposium are $10/person. To purchase tickets or for more information about the symposium and other special events sponsored by JWA, the public should call 410-732-6400. In conjunction with Weaving Women's Words, the JMM and JWA will together sponsor a variety of public programs including lectures, workshops, artist talks and family programs.\nThe 30 women whose lives are portrayed in Weaving Women's Words (referred to as narrators in the exhibition), all over the age of 75, include such notables as The Honorable Rosalie Abrams, artist Amalie Rothschild, community leader Shoshana Cardin, and Rebbetzin Hanna Weinberg. All of the women featured in the exhibition tell compelling stories in which they share their memories as teachers, social workers, businesswomen, hostesses, philanthropists and communal leaders, as well as mothers, wives, grandmothers, sisters, and friends. Says Brenda Brown Rever, Chair of the JWA Community Advisory Board, \"From these living memories, we gain a better understanding of women's myriad contributions to their families, institutions-both Jewish and in general-and to society at large. As a group and individually, these women have accomplished so much. Sharing their stories with the public, combined with the artists' interpretations of their words and lives, will create a new and fuller understanding of the impact Jewish women have had on Jewish history, women's history, and Baltimore and America's history.\"\nWeaving Women's Words was launched in Baltimore and Seattle in 2000 as part of JWA's national oral history initiative to capture the voices and preserve the records of American Jewish women from all walks of life. \"In Baltimore as elsewhere, the varied and important roles of women have often been marginalized and neglected in standard historical accounts,\" says Jayne Guberman, JWA's Director of Oral History. \"Life histories such as those we recorded here enable us to build a fuller and more accurate history that includes women's perspectives on the times in which they lived and their contributions to their families and communities.\" After conducting oral histories with the 30 Baltimore narrators, JWA invited eleven nationally recognized Jewish women artists to examine and interpret themes found in their histories through various visual media. These works of art, excerpts from the oral histories, and portraits of each narrator by renowned photographer Joan Roth, comprise the exhibition on view at the JMM through July 2004.\nThe artists selected for the exhibition represent tremendous geographic diversity\u2014from Maryland to Michigan, California and Oregon\u2014as well as diversity in the media in which they work and the themes they address. The selected artists include Lynne Avadenka, Harriete Estel Berman, Carol Hamoy, Leslie Golomb Hartman, Bonnie Lee Holland, Wendy Jachman, Viviana Lombrozo, Rhoda London, Debra Olin, Tammra Sigler, and Robbin Ami Silverberg. Baltimore painter Tammra Sigler will present a mixed media work, combining painting and collage, to address the theme of \"neighborhoods,\" a topic that, according to Sigler, \"was clearly of great importance to the narrators.\" Says Sigler, \"One of the themes I've been working with in recent paintings is board games\u2014and I found this format worked extremely well with the subject of neighborhoods.\" Creating a \"painted game board,\" as an underpainting, Sigler addressed Baltimore neighborhoods and their sometimes complicated meanings, using scans of historic photographs, many of which were supplied by the narrators, that she printed onto archival paper, combined with layers of color to convey an underlying vibrancy, and reference points of interest. \"While some images and narrators' memories filled me with nostalgia,\" says Sigler, \"I was also struck by how divisive and segregated neighborhoods can be, even within the Jewish community.\" Sigler also speaks of the significance of vanishing points in the collaged images, noting that, \"I regard this work and the exhibition as the opposite of a vanishing point. Jewish women in our society don't vanish and I want my work and the exhibition to serve as a reminder of this fact.\"\nNew York installation artist, Carol Hamoy, has created a work entitled, \"Agents of Change\" for the exhibit. \"As thirteen women were assigned as my subjects for this project it made me think of Jacob's children, the leaders of the tribes of Israel (I always include Dina in my count) who number thirteen,\" says Hamoy. \"That simple fact was the inspiration for my piece. The 'dresses' are a metaphor for woman and each of the garments differs from the one at either side as each woman differs from her twelve colleagues. They are displayed in a circle as it is one of the primary feminine symbols and is often associated with a consecrated space. Each piece of clothing carries the woman's name, her birth date and a quote from her transcript. The work has been suspended from above to represent the power and presence of these women so important to the Jewish community in Baltimore.\"\nExhibition curator Jill Vexler hopes that \"Weaving Women's Words: Baltimore Stories\" will be a vehicle through which visitors will have a transformative experience, and leave wanting to delve deeper into themselves, in search of a better understanding of their own roles, in their families, communities, and society at large.\" A catalog of the exhibition, including Roth's photos of the narrators, images of the artwork, excerpts from the narrators' oral histories, and essays by Vexler and others, will be published and sold in the JMM's gift shop.\nImages of the artwork in Weaving Women's Words and portraits of the narrators are available upon request. Select narrators and artists are available to be interviewed.\nMedia sponsorship for \"Weaving Women's Words: Baltimore Stories\" was provided by Comcast, Baltimore Magazine, Baltimore Jewish Times, WYPR, and WBJC.\nAbout the Jewish Women's Archive (JWA)\nThe Jewish Women's Archive (JWA) is a national, nonprofit organization dedicated uncovering, chronicling and transmitting the rich history of Jewish women and their contributions to society. Founded in Boston, Massachusetts in 1995, JWA has become a leading advocate for and center of education in Jewish women's history.

A third man, 31-year-old Dan Randall of Bayard, Neb., survived.\nThe men were visiting Lake Minatare State Recreation Area near Scottsbluff, Neb., when the accident occurred Sunday. The men had just come in from the lake and had sat down at a picnic table.\nWeaver's wife and 15-year-old son were still out in a boat on the water.\n\"They saw the tree go. My daughter said she assumed he was there under that tree. She said she just knew it had hit them,\" said Weaver's mother-in-law, Lynn Olhausen. \"It just broke off and fell on them, all three of them.\"\nOlhausen said Weaver loved the outdoors and cooking.\n\"He loved to cook. He was a great cook. He loved to ski, a big golfer,\" she said.\nBut first and foremost, she said he loved his family.\n\"He was a great husband and a great father and a hard worker,\" she said.\nArborists warn cottonwood trees can be dangerous. Not only are they prone to rotting, they also have very shallow root systems. But no one expects them to topple onto people.\n\"It's getting harder I think each day because you're in shock to start with,\" Olhausen said.\nOlhausen's daughter is now without a husband and the couple's two children have lost their father, all because he happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.\n\"It's very hard for her because she tells me, 'Mom, I lost my best friend,'\" Olhausen said.\nWeaver is also missed by his many co-workers at Woodword Incorporated in Fort Collins. Weaver had worked at the company for 25 years as a customer account manager.\n\u2018He just wanted to serve:\u2019 20-year-old on-duty Marine shot to death at Washington barracks\nWoman hospitalized after hit-and-run ski collision at Breckenridge",

        "raw_content": "After an argument the\nAfter an argument the other day about whether Xmas is a debasement of Christmas, I took it upon myself to find the origin of the abbreviation. As I suspected, the X does not stem from some pagan disrespect for the Christian holiday. Instead, the abbreviation is of Greek origin. During the 16th century, Europeans began using the first initial of Greek word Xristos, meaning Christ, as a shorthand form of the word. The substitution was, at the time, widely understood, but today its origins are lost and it is often wrongly taken as a sign of disrespect. If an abbreviation still offends the religious sentiments of some, surely no one objects to crosses that bear the engraving IC XC sinc that abbreviation for Iesous Khristos commits the same sin as the word Xmas. So for those who celebrate Xmas, you may now continue to do so without shame. In fact, fix another cup of Xmas cider; your eternal soul is safe (for now).",

She worked at Ted Bates, JWT and GGT before joining Bartle Bogle Hegarty in London in 1980 to run large global accounts such as Coca-Cola, Ray-Ban and Polaroid. In 1996 she moved to Singapore to help start up and run BBH Asia-Pacific, where she ran the Levi\u2019s Asia-Pacific business, and in 1998 she moved to New York to start up BBH in the US, which began as Cindy in a room with a phone. Four years later, BBH New York had won clients like Johnnie Walker, Unilever and Levi\u2019s, and was named Adweek\u2019s Eastern Agency of the Year. In 2003 Cindy was voted Advertising Woman of the Year.\nAfter all her success in the agency world, Cindy resigned as Chairman of BBH New York in 2005 in order to do something different. Today she continues to work in branding, marketing and business innovation as a consultant while also operating at the cutting edge of digital and the internet as a tech entrepreneur. She launched MakeLoveNotPorn at TED 2009 with this talk as an attempt to counterpoint the way in which hardcore porn has become default sex education, by encouraging an open healthy dialogue around how real people have sex, and will take this forwards in 2012 as MakeLoveNotPorn TV. In 2011 she published \u2018Make Love Not Porn: Technology\u2019s Hardcore Impact on Human Behavior\u2019 as a short TED e-book available on Amazon and iTunes.\nAs a highly action-oriented person, Cindy observed that the single biggest pool of untapped natural resource in this world, is good intentions \u2013 both human and corporate \u2013 that never translate into action. She launched IfWeRanTheWorld at TED 2010 as the marketing and business platform of the future, to turn human and corporate good intentions into collective action, one microaction at a time, to deliver\u2013 you are what you do \u2013 and build your Action Graph.

After all the difficulties we had in Singapore, the race itself was one of the very best we have had this season. It was a certain battle victory. It felt like winning to finish third and to get back in the podium.\nObviously, I want to win every time I put my helmet on, but still, it felt good to have such an inspiring race after such a terrible practice and qualifying. It\u2019s a great circuit and a great atmosphere to race, that\u2019s for sure.\nNow we still have six more race weekends ahead of us. The main thing is to focus on the racing only. I don\u2019t want to think too much about what will happen next week, next month, or next year. 2014 starts only in 2014 for me.\nAfter Singapore we have now the challenge of Korea. After a lively city of Singapore, this place doesn\u2019t feel as exciting, but the track itself is good, and of course, that is the key factor for the drivers.\nIt\u2019s a high down-force circuit, which should be good for our car. After Spa and Monza every circuit should be better for us and, at least, in Singapore the car felt very strong. Well, the Red Bull of Sebastian is far ahead of everyone, but our car is good enough to fight for the podium, and that\u2019s a good starting point for the last races of the season.\nDuring the short break I had a short rest, then I trained and took time to visit to see our team ICE1 RACING in the Nations\u2019 Cup competition of motocross.\nNow we have back-to-back races in Korea and Japan. I like both circuits, my back is still with me, and I\u2019m ready for the new challenges. It will be a challenge to meet again the most passionate fans of the world in Japan, as well.\nPrevious Saturday in Korea: \u201cStruggling with understeer\u201d\nNext Korea Grand Prix \u2013 Race Results",

        "raw_content": "Maplewood is a bustling inner-ring suburb with 8,000 residents and over 215 years of history to its name. The city acted as a major hub for westward travel due to its location along the famed Route 66. The historic Maplewood business district is the oldest developed area in St. Louis, acting as a center of commerce even before downtown St. Louis was open for business. Once St. Louis' city center became crowded, Maplewood emerged as a premier suburban development. The municipality has retained an eclectic mix of suburban and urban development. Residential subdivisions are home to traditional, Victorian homes and modern townhouses. Maplewood's business districts are some of the most walkable areas in St. Louis County. While Maplewood has sizable suburban residential developments, it has not abandoned the urban activity that has made the city noteworthy.\nMaplewood was founded by Charles Gratiot, a merchant who left Lausanne, Switzerland and travelled to America in 1777. In 1798, he petitioned the controlling Spanish government for 5,440 acres of farmland which included much of western St. Louis and present-day Maplewood. In 1876, St. Louis' city limits were drawn and Maplewood was placed just west of the city, separated by Limit Avenue. Electric trolley service allowed Maplewood to thrive as a commuter town before businesses moved to Maplewood in order to escape downtown congestion but remain in a convenient, easily-accessible location. So many businessmen moved to Maplewood that the community became famous for its annual baseball game of the Fats and Leans, pitting larger businessmen against their slimmer counterparts. The Business and Civic Club, the group in charge of organizing the event, is still present in the community and remains active with endeavors such as Grow Maplewood, which ensures that the municipality's businesses continue to prosper.\nIn 2016, detached, residential homes in Maplewood sold for a median price of $182,500. This represents an increase of over $60,100 and a remarkable 49% over the last 5 years when compared with the 2011 median price of $122,400. While the median home price reflects Maplewood's affordability and accessibility, this steep price increase shows that housing in Maplewood is a sought-after commodity. Homes in Maplewood are known for their old-world charm. This is apparent when traveling down streets with names such as 'Piccadilly,' 'Oxford,' and 'Cambridge,' which bring to mind the type of Tudor architecture common in Maplewood.\nMaplewood is widely known as a vibrant, active city. Its historic business district provides a walkable commercial experience that is unique to St. Louis County. Maplewood is home to more than 600 businesses, none more famous than Saratoga Lanes and Schlafly Bottleworks. In line with Maplewood's proud history, Saratoga Lanes is the oldest bowling alley west of the Mississippi River. It features eight lanes, five pool tables, and vintage d\u00e9cor that makes present-day bowlers think that they have stepped into the past. Schlafly is Missouri's largest locally-owned, independent brewery. Their Bottleworks features an acclaimed restaurant that emphasizes traditional Midwestern fare. On site, Schlafly offers free tours of the brewery and bottling plant, as well as tastings. For those seeking outdoor adventures, the Maplewood-Richmond Heights Parks and Recreation Department oversees over 23 acres of parkland, as well as the Maplewood Family Aquatic Center. The Taste of Maplewood Street Festival offers patrons access to the best food, drinks, and atmosphere that Maplewood has to offer, and the Maplewood Music Festival draws visitors to Maplewood's scenic parks every year.\nStudents in Maplewood are served by the Maplewood-Richmond Heights School District. In 2015, Maplewood Richmond Heights High School was awarded the National Excellence in Urban Education Award from the National Center for Urban Transformation. Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School was the only High School to win the \"gold\" award in 2015, a remarkable feat that underscores the quality of the district. Those seeking private or faith-based options have access to Nerinx Hall, Little Flower Catholic School, and The Waldorf School St. Louis.\n3553 Commonwealth Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n7627 Comfort Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n7550 Williams Ave Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n2246 Yale Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n7231 Moller Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n7231 Lyndover Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n2520 Florent Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n2407 Bellevue Avenue Maplewood, Missouri 63143\n3619 Commonwealth Avenue 2E Maplewood, Missouri 63143",

        "raw_content": "Lanzarote has a wide variety of attractions to visit, so much more than just the official Centres of Art Culture & Tourism. We\u2019ve listed places of interest across the island including privately owned museums, castles, theme park, aquarium and a cave.\nSeven Official Attractions\nThe Mirador del R\u00edo visitor centre has been built into the top of the magnificent Risco de Famara cliffs close to the village of Y\u00e9 on the Northern tip of Lanzarote. When you arrive all you can see is the stunning coast road leading off to the left and a semi circular building made from traditional stone walls at the rear of the car park.\nA visit to the Cueva de Los Verdes is a chance to go underground and take a guided walk along a 1km section of a lava tunnel. This tunnel system was a refuge for lanzarote\u00f1os during the pirate attacks, there is a well kept surprise too. The cave also includes a natural auditorium there are a range of concerts performed in this location through the year.\nThe Jameos del Agua was the first site to be created by C\u00e9sar Manrique as a cultural centre in Lanzarote which opened back in 1966 and is part of the volcanic tunnel formed with the eruption of the Volc\u00e1n de la Corona.\nC\u00e9sar Manrique found the site of the old disused quarry (el antiguo rofero) and mill (el molino) in Guatiza in the seventies and although work began in 1976, the Jard\u00edn de Cactus wasn\u2019t inaugurated until much later in 1990, this would be C\u00e9sar\u2019s last project in Lanzarote\nCastillo San Jose\nArrecife has two castles on the waterfront, the Castillo San Jos\u00e9 sits overlooking Puerto Naos. Now home to the Museo Internacional de Arte Contempor\u00e1neo (MIAC), this castle was built between 1776 and 1779 as ordered by King Don Carlos III.\nMonumento de Campesino\nC\u00e9sar Manrique designed the Monumento a la Fecundidad for the geographical centre of Lanzarote which stands at the entrance to the Monumento de Campesino centre.

        "raw_content": "BRYCE OPIE looks for open space as he scrambles out of the pocket on Thursday in the game against Bellaire. The bright lights on Thursday night didn\u2019t affect the Norsemen on the field.\nSuttons Bay (2-0, 1-0 Midwest) took it to Bellaire (1-1, 0-1 Midwest), as the Norse defeated the Eagles, 45-6 behind a school record breaking day from tight end Erik Halvorsen.\nHalvorsen caught five passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns. He now owns the Norse record for the most receiving yards in a single game, set by Chris Capron in 1984. Capron had the record at 159 yards in a game.\n\u201cWhen I started high school I was a center all freshman year and the varsity coach said I wanted to switch to tight end,\u201d Halvorsen said. \u201cThe rest of sophomore year, I would work on tight end drills. junior year we worked on everything my speed increased a lot and we made the change.\u201d\nERIK HALVORSEN, right, high fives Michael Wittman after scoring his first touchdown of the night against Bellaire. During his workouts, Halvorsen would lift weights with his team and coaches, then head to speed training with now head coach Garrick Opie. Halvorsen said he had to watch what he ate to lose the weight to play tight end.\n\u201cI definitely changed the way I eat when I\u2019m training,\u201d he said. \u201cI cut out all sugars and pops. I try to eat as healthy as possible.\u201d\nSince last season, Halvorsen has lost 30 pounds to be in the shape he is for this season. Opie was very happy to see his tight end give all he had in the game.\n\u201cI\u2019m proud of him (Halvorsen),\u201d Opie said. \u201cI love his effort, he is a 100 percent effort kid. He did a fantastic job and he plays his heart out each game.\u201d\nSuttons Bay took their opening drive into the end zone, as Halvorsen caught an 18-yard touchdown pass from Bryce Opie. Kaleb Smith ran in the two point conversion to open the scoring at 8-0 Norse.\nLUCAS MIKESELL takes off down the field for a long touchdown run, Thursday, during the game against Bellaire. After the Norse defense forced a three and out, Lucas Mikesell took the hand off from Bryce Opie to the house. Mikesell scored on a 71-yard touchdown run after a five yard penalty for a false start moved the team back. The Norse would fail to convert the two point conversion, but the lead grew to 16-0.\nBellaire would score the first points of the year against the Suttons Bay defense, but couldn\u2019t convert the two point conversion. The score was 16-6 Norsemen at the end of the first quarter.\n\u201cI believe in trying to challenge the guys to play their hardest,\u201d Opie said. \u201cI push the kids to push themselves, and we have a lot of really good teams to face so we have to continue to get better.\u201d\nThe Norse opened the second quarter with a long drive and six more points on a one-yard run from Smith. Camryn Knaub ran in the two point conversion to increase the Norse lead, 24-6.\nThe Norse would trade possessions with Bellaire, before scoring one more touchdown before halftime. The Eagles were faced with a fourth down and punted to the Norse. Lucas Mikesell took the punt 57 yards to the end zone. Smith ran in the two point conversion to make the score 32-6 at halftime.\n\u201cI love the enthusiasm from the team,\u201d Suttons Bay coach Garrick Opie said. \u201cWe had some really good blocks on the line and it was a solid game. I still think there is a lot of things we need to correct, but on both sides of the ball we did quite well.\u201d\nThe Norse opened the second half on the first play with an 80-yard touchdown pass from Bryce Opie to Halvorsen again to increase the Norse lead to 38-6.\nMichael Loucks joined in on the fun, as he scored on a one-yard touchdown run to cap off the night for the Norsemen. Cesar Ramirez would add the extra point to make the score 45-6.\nThe teams would trade possessions the rest of the contest, and Suttons Bay had two defensive stands with Bellaire trying to score points at the end of regulation.\n\u201cI\u2019m proud of our defense for making the goal line stand at the end of the game,\u201d Opie said. \u201cIt takes a lot of guts for guys to step in when other guys are tired and to still perform like that is fantastic so I\u2019m really happy with the defense.\u201d\nThe Norse defense continues to shine, and has allowed just six points in two games. Derek Piglowski led the defense with nine total tackles and two pass breakups. Zach Morton had eight tackles, four and half tackles for loss and had one and a half sacks.\nHalvorsen, to go along with his record offensive performance, added four tackles and had an interception. Luke Murphy had seven tackles on the defensive line for the Norsemen.\nThe Suttons Bay offense piled up 464 yards of total offense, while Bellaire had 104 yards offense.\nOpie finished with 215 passing yards and two touchdowns. He also carried the ball four times for 29 yards.\nThe running game of the Norse made a big impact, as the team compiled 249 rushing yards in the game.\n\u201cAs far as this team (Bellaire) goes, they are a good team,\u201d Opie said. \u201cThey spread the ball out well and I\u2019m happy with the win but their are a few things we can do better on both sides.\u201d\nMikesell led the way with eight carries going for 123 yards and a touchdown.\nSmith had 11 carries for 47 yards and a touchdown. Loucks carried the ball six times for 30 yards and a touchdown, and Knaub added six carries for 23 yards on the ground.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a short celebration,\u201d Opie said. \u201cWe have a lot of work to do before next week, but I will have them enjoy the win tonight and tomorrow we scout the next team. I appreciate everyone\u2019s effort on the team we have a fantastic group of kids on the team.\u201d",

Temperance Beer Company is a taproom and brewery housed in a former warehouse space in Evanston. Although it opened over the winter, I was thrilled to be checking it out the first couple of times during some of the nicest summer days in Chicago.\nbrunch in logan square.\nYears ago I got to live in one of my favorite apartments in the city through the kindness of my older brother. Mostly, I occupied the living room. But it was huge and bright, and he let me take it over while I finished graduate school. Though we were both kind of busy at the time, it was comforting to come home, make dinner together some nights, and talk and hang out like we did when we were kids. The apartment bordered the Chicago neighborhood of Logan Square. While I was staying there, I had gone to a place called Lula Cafe for breakfast and loved the meal very much. It was really nice to check it out again just days ago and walk the square. Their brunch is still inspiring these many years later.\na perfect pairing: bikes & coffee.\nAfter months of not seeing the sun, being able to enjoy it on the way to this urban general store felt so good! Like any city where getting on a bike everyday is as normal as buying a tony cup of coffee, Heritage Bicycles makes the marriage of the two especially welcoming.\nIf I need a change of pace from my bedroom or the kitchen table when I\u2019m writing, I like to head to a coffee shop. And let me tell you, I\u2019ve been spending a lot of time in coffee shops this long winter. Sometimes, I\u2019ll steal an hour in one after I drop the kids off at school. Or I\u2019ll try to meet up with a friend. Lately, even at night, a coffeehouse seems like a better choice than the usual spots to go for a drink. Maybe it\u2019s the buzz of conversation, the comforting smells, or the food (made by other people I might add). But aside from going on a run, spending time in a coffee shop is probably one of the nicest and cheapest forms of therapy in my book.",

        "raw_content": "AB-702 Driving under the influence: chemical tests.(2017-2018)\n(Coauthors: Assembly Members Ch\u00e1vez and Cunningham)\nAn act to amend Sections 23578 and 23612 of, and to repeal and add Section 23577 of, the Vehicle Code, relating to driving under the influence.\nAB 702, as amended, Lackey. Driving under the influence: chemical tests.\n(1) When a person is convicted of violating specified driving-under-the-influence (DUI) provisions, and at the time of the arrest leading to that conviction the person willfully refused a peace officer\u2019s request to submit to, or willfully failed to complete, a specified chemical test, existing law requires a court to impose additional penalties, as specified.\nThis bill would make it a crime for a person to willfully refuse to submit to, or willfully fail to complete, a breath test after being lawfully arrested for a violation of specified offenses. The bill would specify that this crime does not apply to a person who has submitted to and completed a blood test, as specified. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.\n(2) When a person is convicted of violating specified DUI provisions, existing law requires a court to consider a concentration of alcohol in a person\u2019s blood of 0.15% or more, by weight, or the refusal of the person to take a chemical test as a special factor that may justify enhancing the penalties in sentencing, in determining whether to grant probation, and, if probation is granted, in determining additional or enhanced terms and conditions of probation.\nThis bill would change the provision described above to no longer require a court to consider a person\u2019s refusal to take a chemical test as a special factor.\n(3) Existing law provides that a person who drives a motor vehicle is deemed to have given his or her consent to chemical testing of his or her blood or breath for the purpose of determining the alcoholic or drug content of his or her blood if lawfully arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Existing law requires a person to be told that his or her failure to submit to, or the failure to complete, the required chemical test will result in a fine, mandatory imprisonment if convicted of specified DUI offenses, and suspension or revocation of his or her driving privilege, as specified. Existing law exempts a person afflicted with hemophilia or a heart condition, as specified, from this blood test requirement and instead requires him or her to submit to, and complete, a urine test.\nThis bill would repeal the presumption that a person consents to submit to chemical testing of his or her blood or breath and would instead require a motor vehicle driver who is lawfully arrested for a specified DUI offense to submit to chemical testing of his or her blood or breath for the purpose of determining the alcoholic or drug content of his or her blood. The bill would require a peace officer to advise the person, as specified, that he or she has the choice of taking a chemical test, person that he or she is entitled to a number of constitutional protections as to the manner in which the testing will occur, but that failure to take a blood or urine test will may result in suspension or revocation of his or her driving privilege, and refusal to take a breath test will may result in the same penalty and a fine or mandatory imprisonment if the person is convicted of a specified DUI offense. The bill would require a person exempted from the blood test requirement because of hemophilia or a heart condition, as specified, to submit to, and complete, a breath test or a urine test, as specified.\nBecause this bill would impose new requirements on peace officers, it would impose a state-mandated local program.\n(4) The bill would also make legislative findings and declarations about the privilege of driving on public streets and highways in California and reasonable conditions imposed on that privilege.\n(a) Driving on public streets and highways in California is a privilege subject to reasonable conditions.\n(b) Requiring a person who is lawfully arrested for a violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 of the Vehicle Code to submit to a chemical test to determine the alcoholic or drug content of his or her blood or face suspension or revocation of his or her license is a reasonable condition imposed on the privilege of driving.\n(c) Requiring a person who is lawfully arrested for a violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 of the Vehicle Code to submit to a breath test to determine the alcoholic or drug content of his or her blood or face penal consequences for refusing to submit to the breath test is a reasonable condition imposed on the privilege of driving.\n(d) The imposition of the reasonable conditions described in subdivisions (b) and (c) may be viewed as an implied consent law.\n(e) A person who obtains his or her driver\u2019s license in California, if informed of these reasonable conditions at the time of obtaining the license, may be viewed as having provided advance consent to the chemical tests.\n(a) It is a crime for a person to willfully refuse to submit to, or willfully fail to complete, a breath test pursuant to Section 23612 after being lawfully arrested for a violation of Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code. A person shall be punished as follows:\n(1) If the person has no prior convictions for Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code, the punishment shall be the same as imposed under Sections 23536 and 23538 for persons convicted of violating Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code.\n(2) If the person has one or more prior convictions for Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code, the punishment shall be the same as imposed under Sections 23540 and 23542 for persons convicted of violating Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code.\n(b) This Section does not apply to a person who has submitted to and completed a blood test pursuant to Section 23612 after being lawfully arrested for a violation of Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23152 or 23153 of this code.\nIn addition to any other provision of this code, if a person is convicted of a violation of Section 23152 or 23153, the court shall consider a concentration of alcohol in the person\u2019s blood of 0.15 percent or more, by weight, as a special factor that may justify enhancing the penalties in sentencing, in determining whether to grant probation, and, if probation is granted, in determining additional or enhanced terms and conditions of probation.\n(a) (1) (A) A person who drives a motor vehicle in California shall submit to and complete chemical testing of his or her blood or breath for the purpose of determining the alcoholic or drug content of his or her blood, if lawfully arrested for an offense allegedly committed in violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153, or be subject to the consequences described in subparagraphs (C) and (D). If a blood or breath test, or both, are unavailable, paragraph (2) of subdivision (d) applies.\n(B) The testing shall be conducted following a lawful arrest and administered at the direction of a peace officer having reasonable cause to believe the person was driving a motor vehicle in violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153.\n(C)A peace officer shall give the person the following advisement before conducting a chemical test: \u201cYou are now under arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Because you have been lawfully arrested for driving under the influence, you now have the choice of either submitting to and completing chemical testing to determine the alcoholic or drug content of your blood or be subject to the following consequences: (i) the suspension of your privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period of one year, (ii) the revocation of your privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period of two years if the refusal occurs within 10 years of a separate violation of Section 23103, as specified in Section 23103.5, or of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 of the Vehicle Code, or of Section 191.5 or subdivision (a) of Section 192.5 of the Penal Code that resulted in a conviction, or if your privilege to operate a motor vehicle has been suspended or revoked pursuant to Section 13353, 13353.1, or 13353.2 of the Vehicle Code for an offense that occurred on a separate occasion, or (iii) the revocation of your privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period of three years if the refusal occurs within 10 years of two or more separate violations of Section 23103, as specified in Section 23103.5, or of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 of the Vehicle Code, or of Section 191.5 or subdivision (a) of Section 192.5 of the Penal Code, or any combination thereof, that resulted in convictions, or if your privilege to operate a motor vehicle has been suspended or revoked two or more times pursuant to Section 13353, 13353.1 or 13353.2 of the Vehicle Code for offenses that occurred on separate occasions, or if there is any combination of those convictions, administrative suspensions, or revocations. Your refusal may also be used as evidence of guilt in a criminal trial or administrative proceeding, regardless of number of previous convictions you have suffered.\u201d\n(C) A peace officer shall give the person the following advisement before conducting a chemical test: \u201cYou have been arrested for unlawfully driving under the influence. You are entitled to a number of constitutional protections as to the manner in which you are tested to determine if you are unlawfully driving under the influence. You are required to take a breath test to determine your blood alcohol level. If you refuse to take this test, or intentionally fail to provide a proper breath sample, this will be used against you in future court hearings and you may be subject to criminal prosecution and licensing sanctions for the refusal. You can consent to having a blood test instead of a breath test. A breath sample is not retained. If you desire a sample that will be retained, you must request a blood test. If you refuse a breath test, no blood can be taken from you without a lawfully issued warrant or in the absence of specific, lawful circumstances. If the warrant is obtained, or specific lawful circumstances exist, you may be taken against your will to a local hospital or clinic and we will draw blood from you. No criminal action will be taken against you for refusing to submit to a blood test without a warrant, but you may face licensing sanctions.\u201d If blood cannot be drawn from the person because of a medical reason, a peace officer shall give the following advisement: \u201cIf you cannot complete the blood test, you must submit to and complete urine testing to determine the drug or alcohol content of your blood or face the licensing sanctions.\u201d\n(D) A person who willfully refuses a peace officer\u2019s request to submit to, or willfully fails to complete, a breath test after a lawful arrest for an offense allegedly committed in violation of Section 191.5 of the Penal Code or Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 of this code is also subject to the penalties described in Section 23577.\n(2) (A) If the person is lawfully arrested for driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage, after the person has been advised pursuant to subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1), a peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cAs previously indicated, you have been lawfully arrested for driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage and you are now required to submit to and complete a blood or breath test to determine the alcoholic content of your blood. Will you now take a chemical test and, if so, do you wish to take a breath test or a blood test?\u201d If the person refuses to take either test, a peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cIf you refuse to take a breath test, you are subject to a fine or mandatory imprisonment if you are convicted of a violation of Section 23152, 23153, or 23577 of the Vehicle Code and you will also be subject to the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about. If you refuse to take a blood test, you will not be subject to a fine or mandatory imprisonment, but you are subject to the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about. However, if you submit to and complete either a breath test or a blood test, you will not be subject to any consequence for refusing a chemical test.\u201d If the person chooses a breath test, but is incapable of completing the breath test, the peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cYou must submit to a blood test or face the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about.\u201d If the person chooses a blood test, but is incapable of completing the blood test, the peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cYou must submit to a breath test or face the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about, and a fine or mandatory imprisonment if you are convicted of a violation of Section 23152, 23153, or 23577 of the Vehicle Code.\u201d If a blood test or breath test, or both, are unavailable, then paragraph (2) of subdivision (d) applies.\n(B) If the person is lawfully arrested for driving under the influence of any drug or the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage and any drug, and if the officer has a clear indication that a blood test will reveal evidence of the person being under the influence, then after the person has been advised pursuant to subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1), a peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cAs previously indicated, you have been lawfully arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or the combined influence of alcohol and drugs and you are required to submit to and complete a blood test to determine the drug or alcohol content of your blood. Will you now take a blood test?\u201d If the person refuses to take a blood test, the person shall be told: \u201cIf you refuse to take a blood test, you will not be subject to a fine or mandatory imprisonment, but you are subject to the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about.\u201d If the person arrested is incapable of completing the blood test, a peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cIf you cannot complete the blood test, you must submit to and complete urine testing to determine the drug or alcohol content of your blood or face the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about.\u201d If the person refuses to take a required urine test, the person shall be told: \u201cIf you refuse to take a urine test, you will not be subject to a fine or mandatory imprisonment, but you are subject to the license suspension or revocation I previously told you about.\u201d If the person refuses to take a blood or urine test, the person is subject to the consequences for refusing to take a blood test described in subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1). The peace officer shall state in his or her report the facts that provide the officer a clear indication that a blood test or urine test will reveal evidence of the person being under the influence of a drug or the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage and a drug.\n(3) If the person is lawfully arrested for an offense allegedly committed in violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153, and, because of the need for medical treatment, the person is first transported to a medical facility where it is not feasible to administer a particular test of, or to obtain a particular sample of, the person\u2019s blood or breath, the person has the choice of those tests, including a urine test, that are available at the facility to which that person has been transported. In that case, the officer shall advise the person of those tests that are available at the medical facility and that the person\u2019s choice is limited to those tests that are available. However, if only a blood test or a urine test is available, the officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cYou must submit to a blood test or a urine test or face the license suspension or revocation that I previously told you about.\u201d\n(b) A person who is afflicted with hemophilia is exempt from the blood test required by this section, but shall submit to, and complete, a breath test if arrested for driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage, a urine test if arrested for driving under the influence of a drug, or a breath test and a urine test if arrested for driving under the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage and a drug.\n(c) A person who is afflicted with a heart condition and is using an anticoagulant under the direction of a licensed physician and surgeon is exempt from the blood test required by this section, but shall submit to, and complete, a breath test if arrested for driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage, a urine test if arrested for driving under the influence of a drug, or a breath test and a urine test if arrested for driving under the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage and a drug.\n(d) (1) A person lawfully arrested for an offense allegedly committed while the person was driving a motor vehicle in violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153 may request the arresting officer to have a chemical test made of the arrested person\u2019s blood or breath for the purpose of determining the alcoholic content of that person\u2019s blood, and, if so requested, the arresting officer shall have the test performed.\n(2) If a blood or breath test is not available under subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), or under subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a), or under paragraph (1) of this subdivision, the person shall submit to the remaining test in order to determine the percent, by weight, of alcohol in the person\u2019s blood. If both the blood and breath tests are unavailable, the person shall be deemed to have given his or her consent to chemical testing of his or her urine and shall submit to a urine test. If the only available test is the breath test and, after being advised pursuant to subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), the person refuses to take the breath test, a peace officer shall tell the person the following: \u201cIf you refuse to take a breath test, you are subject to a fine or mandatory imprisonment if you are convicted of a violation of Section 23152, 23153, or 23577 of the Vehicle Code.\u201d If the only available test is either a blood test or a urine test, a peace officer shall not tell the person that refusal will subject the person to a fine or mandatory imprisonment.\n(g) (1) The peace officer shall immediately forward a copy of the completed notice of suspension or revocation form and any driver\u2019s license taken into possession under subdivision (f), with the report required by Section 13380, to the department. If the person submitted to a blood or urine test, the peace officer shall forward the results immediately to the appropriate forensic laboratory. The forensic laboratory shall forward the results of the chemical tests to the department within 15 calendar days of the date of the arrest.\n(2) (A) Notwithstanding any other law, a document containing data prepared and maintained in the governmental forensic laboratory computerized database system that is electronically transmitted or retrieved through public or private computer networks to or by the department is the best available evidence of the chemical test results in all administrative proceedings conducted by the department. In addition, any other official record that is maintained in the governmental forensic laboratory, relates to a chemical test analysis prepared and maintained in the governmental forensic laboratory computerized database system, and is electronically transmitted and retrieved through a public or private computer network to or by the department is admissible as evidence in the department\u2019s administrative proceedings. In order to be admissible as evidence in administrative proceedings, a document described in this subparagraph shall bear a certification by the employee of the department who retrieved the document certifying that the information was received or retrieved directly from the computerized database system of a governmental forensic laboratory and that the document accurately reflects the data received or retrieved.\n(B) Notwithstanding any other law, the failure of an employee of the department to certify under subparagraph (A) is not a public offense.",

Working around the clock, she cared for patients with tireless dedication. Anna is best known for her role as relief day supervisor, a position she held at Mennonite Hospital for 22 years. Those who have known Anna professionally are quick to comment about her eye for detail, her ability to run many parts of the hospital operations, her high level of energy and her ever present black book. When Anna\u2019s work day ended it began again at the family farm. Her perfection extended to her care for her family and home. Anna was known as an outstanding cook and baker, gardener and neighbor. Those who lived close by occasionally requested her nursing care and kindly called her \u2018Doc'. Anna actively served her church and community.\nAlthough she retired in the early 1970\u2019s, Anna continued to volunteer until she was in her late 90\u2019s as a charter member of the BroMenn Service Auxiliary. Anna Ropp passed away on June 9, 2005 and is buried in the Ropp family cemetery in Hudson, Illinois.\nThese handwritten diaries have been transcribed by Anna Ropp\u2019s son, Paul Ropp. Each of the transcripts can be viewed or downloaded as a pdf format.",

If you are currently operating without a hosted system, you may be well aware of this fact \u2014 or may have even found that 85 percent is a conservative figure.\nTypically, the adoption of an exchange email hosting solution means that non-technical staff can perform any necessary maintenance on the business side, thereby freeing employees to focus on other tasks.\nOn the financial end, you may also find \u2014 or have already found \u2014 that starting up and maintaining a non-hosted solution is a significant financial commitment in the way of the aforementioned IT resources, hardware and software. Moreover, the costs in time and potential loss of business can be sizeable when regular and emergency maintenance costs strike.\nExchange email hosting, on the other hand, offers implementation costs that are comparatively minimal, which negates the necessity of hardware purchases and additional IT personnel.\nIn terms of a number of basic features, exchange email hosting offers many features that non-hosted solutions lack. Features offered by hosted systems include bandwidth and redundancy, in addition to professional administration, timely upgrades and regular maintenance.\nAs crashing servers and interruptions in email service can lead to diminished productivity, as well as a decrease in the quality of customer relationships, exchange email hosting is also a better bet for seamless customer service.\nBuilt-in support is one of the many reasons that exchange email hosting is becoming increasingly popular.\nWhile businesses continue to rely more on the advantages of helpful and productivity-enhancing workplace technologies, the new business they attract as a result of increased productivity leaves less time for solving IT challenges on their own.\nFeatures of an Effective SEO Strategy\t While you may already be aware of what SEO is, you may still",

        "title": "Israel Could Face a Regional Shiite Army in Lebanon \u2013 LobeLog",
        "raw_content": "Israel Could Face a Regional Shiite Army in Lebanon\nMarch 8, 2018 Guest 9 Comments\nby Ali Rizk\nFollowing a bipartisan congressional tour of the Middle East, including Israel, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) stated that \u201csouthern Lebanon is where the next war is coming.\u201d He also revealed that Israeli officials requested from the congressional delegation diplomatic support if Israel were to strike civilian targets under the pretext of targeting Hezbollah\u2019s alleged rocket factory.\nIf Israel were to attack Lebanon, it would not just embark on a new showdown with Hezbollah. It would likely come up against a regional Shiite army.\nAlthough Hezbollah\u2019s participation in the war in Syria may have lowered its standing in the Sunni world, the organization\u2019s reputation in the Shiite world has skyrocketed in recent years.\nFor instance, just a few weeks ago the tenth anniversary commemoration of the death of Hezbollah\u2019s former top military commander Imad Mughnieh took place not just in Lebanon but also in Tehran, which featured an hours-long speech by the commander of the Quds force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Major General Qassem Suleimani.\nEven more interesting and significant was the ceremony held on this occasion in Baghdad, where the speakers included the head of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units Abu Mehdi al-Muhandis (also known as the leader of the Iraqi \u201cHezbollah brigades\u201d), and the leader of the Iraqi Shiite Asa\u2019ib Ahl al-Haq group Sheikh Qais al-Khazali. Meanwhile, the secretary general of the Iraqi Harakat al-Nujaba movement\u2014an Iraqi Shiite group that participated in the fight against the Islamic State\u2014said at this year\u2019s commemoration in Lebanon that \u201cthe Iraqi resistance will stand with Hezbollah in any Israeli attack or action against it.\u201d\nIraqis even earlier showed signs of their readiness to come to the aid of Hezbollah in any future war with Israel. In December last year al-Khazali visited the southern Lebanese border overlooking northern Israeli settlements. Dressed in military uniform, he stood with two other unidentified uniformed men and declared his \u201cfull readiness to stand with the Lebanese people\u201d and his support for \u201cresistance fighters.\u201d\nAll of these developments greatly boost the credibility of statements made by Secretary General of Hezbollah Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. An Israeli attack, he warned back in June, \u201cwould open the door for hundreds of thousands of fighters from all over the Arab and Islamic world to participate in this fight\u2014from Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan.\u201d It was indeed the first such warning of its kind made by Hezbollah\u2019s secretary general to Israel, and a clear sign of the regional clout Hezbollah has attained.\nIt is difficult to overestimate the strength of the ideological bonds between Hezbollah and its regional Shiite allies. The Lebanese movement was the first to send fighters to Syria to protect the shrine of Sayyidah Zaynab in Damascus. The Sayyidah Zaynab shrine is one of the most cherished and sacred shrines for Shiites. Hezbollah\u2019s involvement in Syria also allowed it to interact directly with Shiite fighters coming from Afghanistan and Pakistan to join the battle against the Islamic State (ISIS or IS), Al-Nusra, and other Wahhabi-inspired terrorist groups trying to topple the Syrian government. Such interaction has even further strengthened the bonds.\nIn Iraq, meanwhile, Hezbollah played a very important advisory and training role for the Iraqi groups that fought and defeated IS terrorists. In Iraq, too, the Lebanese movement helped protect shrines considered sacred by the international Shiite community. Unlike Syria, where the battle against Wahhabi-inspired terrorists rages on, the Iraqis have actually succeeded in defeating the terrorists (militarily at least). Hence, the Iraqis are not preoccupied with their own battles and seem keen on returning the favor to Hezbollah if another war breaks out with Israel.\nGiven that Israel failed to defeat Hezbollah in its war in Lebanon in 2006, it\u2019s difficult to imagine Israel succeeding in a war against both Hezbollah and its newfound regional network of Shiite allies. And at the same time not only is Hezbollah\u2019s missile arsenal a lot larger and more dangerous than it was in 2006, but it has also gained vast experience alongside its allies in offensive operations against IS and similar groups.\nThe Trump administration and Congress for their part would do well to pay attention to the fact that an Israeli war in Lebanon could put the lives of US troops in danger this time. Unlike 2006, Hezbollah\u2019s Iraqi allies may very well target US troops stationed in Iraq in retaliation for U.S. support of Israel. The US also now has around 2,000 troops stationed in northeastern Syria that also represent a valuable target for Hezbollah and its regional allies if Israel were allowed to embark on another military operation in Lebanon.\nAli Rizk has been working in the field of journalism since 2003 including five years in Iran. He is a contributor to Al-Monitor and Al-Mayadeen and has written for other outlets including the Lebanese dailies Assafir and Al-Alakhbar. He is the former Beirut correspondent for Iranian PressTV. Photo: Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.\nIraq, Lebanon Ali Rizk, Congress, Hezbollah, Imad Mughnieh, iraq, Israel, Lebanon, Lindsey Graham, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Syria\nPrevious Article\u2190 Entertaining Our Way into Falsehoods\nNext ArticleThe US Needs A Post-Olympic Game Plan with North Korea \u2192\nHezbollah and the Shiites have been under siege by ISIS and Al Qaeda for 7yrs, an island of non-Sunnis in an ocean of Sunnis confronted by powerful state backing from Turkey, the Gulf States and the U.S. and even Israel. Why wouldn\u2019t they pool resources and take help from Iran?\nSo is Israel going to engage in a little preemptive genocide while Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio thump their chests proclaiming this is a righteous war? I can\u2019t stand the imbeciles in my govt, I can\u2019t believe they call themselves Christians, they thirst for blood. It\u2019s a disgusting spectacle.\njsinton\nI\u2019m with you, Christian Chuba. These people that call themselves Christians are everything but. Christ warned us this would happen, the \u201cwolves in sheep\u2019s clothing\u201d.\nThe Syrian civil war must have looked like a real good idea to the planners and policy makers that poured gasoline all over the fire. Just another example of \u201cone must be careful what they wish for\u201d.\nSounds like the Shiite forces and militias by a unified voice are daring Israel to attack south Lebanon. By daring Israel, the Shiites may have a two prongs objective:\n1. To embarrass the Sunnis since they\u2019ve been inept and worthless since 1967. Additionally behavior of Sunnis has gotten even worse recently since their leaders, mostly GCC, are getting in bed with the corrupted PM of Israel!\n2. Perhaps the Shiites are looking at this potential upcoming event as \u201cthe end game\u201d and they create a situation for the Palestinians to negotiate from the position of power!\nHezbollah regretted triggering the virtually insane Israeli smashing of Lebanon a decade or so ago. I very much doubt Hezbollah wants a repeat.",

While the design and materials within the home are very important, the actual installation process can impact a home\u2019s carbon footprint as well.\nMike Laliberte, president of Construction Instruction, covers this topic in an article called \u201cCountdown to Quality,\u201d where he addresses the top five most common errors builders make when it comes to energy, health and resource efficiency.\nAccording to the article, the number one mistake that builders make is wasting resources on the jobsite.\n\u201cOur industry uses so much stuff to create places to live. We can and should be more efficient with what and how we use these resources,\u201d states Laliberte.\nHow do we solve this? Practicing advanced framing techniques can help to reduce the overall amount of building materials used. Also, look at the products that you\u2019re tossing into the dumpster and see if they can be repurposed for blocking, cripples or header blocks.\nAt LP, we\u2019re in the business of manufacturing engineered wood materials, but we also advocate for proper installation and efficient use of these materials.

It is the first work to extensively analyse the effectiveness and fairness of the EU leniency policy. The book looks at why leniency is important and examines to what extent the current policy is effective and fair. The European Union (EU) leniency programme is a key weapon in the Commission\u2019s fight against hard-core cartels which are the most harmful infringements in EU competition law. Much of the success of EU cartel enforcement depends on the continued effectiveness of the leniency policy and is especially critical in response to the growth of private enforcement. Looking back at the overall development since the inception of the first Leniency Notice, this book demonstrates that effectiveness and fairness have been successfully reconciled, and it has been updated to reflect the state of law as of 1 June 2017.\nProceeding systematically from clarifying the concepts of \u2018effectiveness\u2019 and \u2018fairness\u2019 to addressing the tension between leniency and private actions for damages, the author discusses the nature of, and interrelations among, such aspects as the following:\nthe theoretical model of the EU fining policy;\nthe compatibility of the EU enforcement system with fundamental rights protection;\nthe gathering and evaluation of evidence at the preliminary investigation stage;\nthe severity and foreseeability of the EU cartel fines;\njudicial review by the EU Courts in cartel matters;\nto what extent the current policy is effective and fair; and\nreforms brought about by the 2002 and 2006 Leniency Notices and the leniency-related amendments by the 2014 Antitrust Damages Directive.\nThe theme throughout all chapters is the reconciliation of effectiveness and fairness. After setting the scene in Chapter 1 and clarifying the key concepts of \u2018effectiveness\u2019 and \u2018fairness\u2019 in Chapter 2, the subsequent chapters deal with the development of the EU leniency policy. A key feature is the author\u2019s presentation of a normative framework to test the effectiveness (deterrence) and substantive fairness (retribution) of the EU leniency policy.\nAs a clear demonstration of how to forestall the danger of focusing on the effectiveness of leniency at the expense of fairness, both in a substantive and in a procedural sense, this book is a major contribution to the literature of competition law. It will prove to be of great value to competition authorities, antitrust practitioners and interested academics not only in Europe but also throughout the world.\nCHAPTER 2 Reconciling Effectiveness and Fairness\nCHAPTER 3 Effectiveness and Fairness in EU Cartel Enforcement\nCHAPTER 4 Effectiveness and Fairness in the EU Leniency Policy\nCHAPTER 5 Internal Factors Affecting the Effectiveness and Fairness of the EU Leniency Policy\nCHAPTER 6 The Impact of Private Actions for Damages on the Effectiveness and Fairness of the EU Leniency Policy",

        "raw_content": "Complaints against a council may arise from a decision made by the council or an action they have taken. They may include complaints about services provided or conduct of council employees or council members.\nThe first step in any complaint against a council is to contact your council office or your local council member to make the complaint.\nFor contact information for all South Australian councils see the Local Government Association of SA website.\nThe complaints process may vary depending on the type of matter it is so it is important to ask the council for assistance in how to make a complaint for a particular matter. For instance, a complaint about animal control under the Dog and Cat Management Act 1995 will have a different procedure to a complaint about how a property has been valuated.\nIf you are not satisfied with the outcome you can ask the council for an internal review [see Local Government Act 1999 (SA) s 270]. This request must be made in writing. Councils must make available their policy and procedures for conducting an internal review.\nIf the complaint has not been resolved through internal review you can contact the South Australian Ombudsman. The Ombudsman has the power to investigate complaints against local government agencies. They also conduct reviews of freedom of information decisions made by councils.\nCertain council decisions can also be reviewed by the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT) [see, for example, section 256 of the Local Government Act 1999 (SA)].\nSchedule 2A of the Local Government (General) Regulations 2013 (SA) provides for a Code of Conduct for council employees. This code includes, amongst other provisions, that a council employee cannot seek out or receive a gift or benefit that influences their performance as an employee. Each council is also required to maintain a register of gifts and benefits of a certain value received by employees.\nSee Local Government (General) Regulations 2013 (SA) Schedule 2A.\nA Code of Conduct for council members has also been adopted [see Local Government (General) Regulations 2013 (SA) reg 7]. A copy of the Code of Conduct for members can be located in the South Australian Government Gazette.\nFor information on how to object to property valuations see Complaints about taxation (State government).\nComplaints against councils (Local government) : Last Revised: Mon Oct 8th 2018",

        "raw_content": "We have years of experience and knowledge in dealing the court systems and bringing claims\nA Small claim in the County Court can be issued for various reasons\nWe have years of experience and knowledge in dealing the court systems and bringing claims.\nA Small claim in the County Court can be issued for various reasons, you may not have been paid for work that you have done, somebody has not completed satisfactorily work for you, you could have lent someone some money and expected it back but it has not been returned for example or your landlord may not have protected your deposit in a tenancy deposit scheme. If your claim is under \u00a310,000 then it would be started in the small claims track of the County Court.\nMany of our clients have come to M2M Community Solicitors LLP for assistance with bringing a small claims case rather than attempting to bring a claim themselves. We can help with this or if the client wishes we can limit the assistance that they may need to the drafting of a simple Claim Form or just the advice on the process at each stage, this will allow the client to understand the process and keep their costs to a minimum.\nBefore issuing a claim you will probably have gone through a process with whoever you are issuing against and will have corresponded with them and advised them that you will be taking legal action. Maybe you did not get any response from them or could not get hold of them. In this type of circumstance it may be beneficial for you to get a solicitor to send a letter advising that legal action will be taken if they do not respond. This could get results and may save you the process and fees involved with issuing a claim.\nIf there is no response from the other party then the court will see that you have tried to resolve the matter before taking the legal action now required.\nWhen issuing claims we will draft the claim and go through each stage of the process with our clients ensuring they understand what is happening and what documentation is required.\nOur charges to assist are therefore generally low. It is only if the matter becomes complex and/or the case is moved out of the small claims court that our fees will increase.\nRemember there are deadlines for the start of court action and so if you do not act in time you could lose your opportunity altogether \u2013 do not delay.\nHow can we help you to start action at the small claims track of the County Court?\nWe can help by assisting to draft a simple Claim Form which you can use to start legal proceedings.\nHow much will it cost for M2M Community Solicitors LLP to draft a simple Claim Form?\nM2M Community Solicitors LLP will charge based on an hourly fee for actions in the small claims track of the County Court at \u00a3180 including VAT per hour. A simple Claim form is likely to take a maximum of two hours to draft.\nCan I get money back for the Court fee?\nYes, if you are successful the Court can make an Order that you are entitled to your Court fee back and this is usual. However, just because you have a Court Order does not mean that your opposition will obey it and pay you. The Court will not enforce an Order, you have to be proactive in using the Court\u2019s methods of enforcement to pursue your opponent for any amount won if you win a Court case.\nHow long does it take from starting an action to getting the final hearing?\nThis varies dependant on the timetable of the Court and how busy it is with other cases. It is also dependent upon the complexity of the case.",

The last of this year\u2019s conferences will be held at Fort Kent Community High School on June 24 starting at 7:30 a.m., courtesy of MSAD 27.\nParticipants attend five workshops throughout the day to work on various skills such as safety, security, special needs transport, communication, and bully prevention. In addition, drivers compete against each other in the ultimate test of their skills of safely operating a school bus.\nIn Maine, about 80 percent of students ride a school bus, which is high compared to the national rate of 50 percent. During the school year in Maine, about 140,000 children are transported on 3,000 school buses by 2,200 school bus drivers over 30 million miles of roads.\nMaine traditionally has one of the best safety records in the nation, due in part to our focus on safety which is supported by state statue. This safety record was evident last year, when a team from Maine took first place at the National Special Needs Team Safety event held in Texas. South Portland Transportation Director Lisa Gadway and MSAD 49 driver Greg McGoff were judged on: driving a bus, loading and securing students in wheelchairs, student management, and emergency evacuation. The event included training as well as a written exam.\nAt this final regional conference in Fort Kent, Gadway and McGoff will be sharing their skills by presenting a workshop on preparing for the special needs competition.\nThe first, second, and third place school bus driver winners of these regional conferences are invited to compete for the state championship at the annual conference in July at Sugarloaf. A team of drivers is selected at each regional event to participate in the state conference.\nMembers of the media are invited to attend on Friday, June 24 at Fort Kent Community High School where participants will be available for interviews from 7:30 a.m. through noon, with winners being announced at 2 p.m.\nFor more information, contact MSAD 27 Superintendent Benjamin Sirois at benjaminsirois@sad27.org or call 834-3189 or Maine DOE\u2019s Transportation and Facilities Administrator Pat Hinckley at pat.hinckley@maine.gov.\nPosted on June 20, 2016 June 20, 2016 by Maine Department of EducationPosted in Administrators, News & Views, Press Releases, Students and Families, Transportation\nPrevious Previous post: Maine DOE announces 2016-17 testing dates\nNext Next post: 2017 Teacher of the Year semifinalists announced",

        "raw_content": "So what do the 2017 data tell us about the short-term prospects for the struggling factory sector? U.S. manufacturing does appear to be healing from tough times. Given that world economic winds are finally blowing in a favorable direction, the still subdued growth of 2017 certainly seems disappointing until the larger context of post-2000 history is considered. Trade and currency challenges, technological disruptions, and cultural attitudes toward manufacturing that often manifest themselves in political infighting over the appropriate public posture toward the sector have conspired to challenge goods producers as never before.\nBasic economics is insufficient for analyzing and forecasting U.S. factory sector activity. Manufacturing is always on the cutting-edge of either winning or losing the battle to fully adopt new technologies and processes into its production structure to remain competitive in an ever more complex global business environment. Nowhere is that more evident than in the thorny and complex subject of jobs.\nIn spite of the subdued growth, the factory sector added an impressive 198,000 jobs between December 2016 and December 2017, after losing 27,000 between December 2015 and December 2016. This is partially reflective of the ongoing malaise in labor productivity growth, an issue that must be addressed for the sake of future factory sector jobs. Historically abnormal productivity performance needs to be considered in predicting the sector\u2019s short-term growth prospects, a challenge for the forecasting community.\nA recovering global economy is the best news that manufacturing enterprises have had in a decade. As long as world economic improvement stays on track, U.S. manufacturing growth should at least be moderate. While the world economic environment currently has its share of political and geopolitical risks, it is unlikely that the global recovery will be derailed in a significant way in the near future. However, a return to the growth rates of the pre-financial crisis years seems out of reach, at least for now. And in these times of economic disruption and global political tumult, surprises are always just around the corner.",

        "raw_content": "BREAKING: Zynga Files for IPO\nAfter months of speculation, social gaming juggernaut Zynga has finally filed for an IPO that could raise $1 billion.\nZynga's S1 filing, which we are going through now, reveals that the company has 60 million daily active users, 232 million monthly active users and a 2010 revenue of $597 million. Zynga is the company behind hit social games like FarmVille and CityVille.\nZynga's stock has skyrocketed in recent years as social gaming has become a mainstream phenomenon. The company was worth $4 billion in May 2010, but its value more than doubled to $10 billion in February 2011. The IPO could value Zynga as a $20 billion company.\nSEE ALSO: 11 Interesting Facts From Zynga's Filing | INFOGRAPHIC: Users & Revenue\nPart of the reason for Zynga's growing valuation is its growing user base. In Q3 2009, the company had 24 million daily active users and 99 million monthly active users, according to Zynga's S1 filing. In Q1 2011, though, Zynga had 62 million daily active users and 236 million monthly active users. Investors may be troubled to see that Zynga had nearly the same amount of users a year ago, which could indicate that Zynga's growth has stalled.\nDespite the stalled growth in users, Zynga is a profitable company. In Q1 2011, the social gaming giant generated $235 million in revenue against $206 million in costs. After taxes, the company earned a net income of $11.8 million in Q1 2011. Zynga was also profitable in 2010, earning $90.6 million on $597 million in revenue.\nAs for ownership, CEO Mark Pincus is the largest shareholder with 16% of Class B shares and 100% of Class C shares. Kleiner Perkins, Institutional Venture Partners, Union Square Ventures, Foundry Venture Capital, Avalon Ventures and Digital Sky Technologies are the other shareholders with more than a 5% ownership stake in the company.\nBelow you can view some of the images and charts from the filing.\nzBar Navigational Tool\nZynga Pride\nZynga cafeteria\nZynga dogs\nZynga floors\nZynga play\nZynga skiball\nscramble tourney\nzynga scramble tournament\nZynga Stats\nZynga Revenue\nZynga Core Values\nZynga Popular Games\n0001193125-11-180285_g198836g59n78\nZynga Message Center\nTopics: Business, cityville, farmville, IPO, social games, Zynga",

        "title": "No Flowers for People with a Mental Health Disorder | Recovery Now\u2757\ufe0f",
        "raw_content": "No Flowers for People with a Mental Health Disorder\nWhen a person walks into a medical facility, hospital, or otherwise, they walk right past the gift shop. Usually, people walk right past it, just to ask someone else passing by: \u201cwhere is the gift shop?\u201d because they were headed there anyway and didn\u2019t see it on their way in to visit their loved one or friend.\nI am writing today as a someone who has been hospitalized both in psychiatric facilities and someone who has had multiple medical interventions and been in-patient in a medical facility. Even for the most minor of medical procedures that have landed me in the hospital, I have been showered with cards, teddy bears, flowers even, and the list goes on and on\u2026\nThis phenomena isn\u2019t specific to my circumstances. My roommates in the medical facilities, people around the unit, all seem to be showered by their visitors with gifts from the lobby gift shop or their local drug store. Even down to clothing or a special item from their home, I have seen family members bring these possessions, too, into the hospital to further comfort their loved ones.\nConversely, sadly, in the psychiatric hospital, this doesn\u2019t happen. Not only is the \u201cgift shop\u201d usually locked away, or only open a few hours of the day, and located in some inaccessible area of the facility that requires staff members to personally escort you to and from the shop, patients are usually not allowed to visit the shop themselves. In one hospital I was in-patient, I needed to attain a certain level of privlidge determined by the clinical staff to be able to access the shop with behavioral health guards or attendants, to personally escort me to and from the shop.\nOne of the saddest and profound memories I have on this topic from my stint at the state hospital in upstate New York is being jealous that a friend who finally had a visit from a family member. I observed the friend sitting with their family eating a Big Mac from McDonald\u2019s. The jealousy was visceral. I felt it. I remember sitting and staring at her eating the other half of the sandwich later after her family left at dinner time.\nA bit of background here. In the state hospital system, meals are calculated right down the calorie. It is assumed, because you are a \u201cmental patient\u201d that you don\u2019t know how to eat, or what to eat, so the dietitians determine your meals for you. I tried to find a loophole, claiming allergies, other lies that might ameliorate my dining and land me a more consumable plate of food but no luck. I have more documentation from dietary than my clinical staff.\nIn fact, one such patient, an elderly woman ready to be transferred to the geriatric ward was so upset with her food she did a running dash at someone else\u2019s bowl of soup, and kept running, ultimately, to be tackled by the guards or technicians. I was never that bold. I engaged in trading. Which, when discovered by the staff, usually left me in dining isolation at my own table for punishment.\nSo, when I say, people with mental health conditions don\u2019t get flowers, it speaks to larger problem with the manner in which this group of people are viewed by their healthy counterparts when determining if in fact, these folks deserve a little empathy, a gift card, or sandwich from their favorite shop.\nTags: Featured, healing, health, living, mental health, Peer, recovery, righteousness\nPrevious New Freedom: The Brave Experiment, A Manifesto\nNext Chronic Illness & Recovery: Setting the Pace for Sustainable Healing",

        "raw_content": "Category: Universal Icons\nOn February 4, 2018 February 4, 2018 By M.J. DiedrichIn Universal Icons\nFrom Flickr user Insomnia Cured Here.\nI\u2019ve always been tall and big, and when I was growing up, I tended to identify with the large characters in teams or ensembles. To this day, I often find myself being self-conscious about how much space I\u2019m taking up and whose view I might be obstructing. I was also very much a math and science nerd growing up, and even though I no longer do much with those subjects, I\u2019ll get excited at the possibility of having an idea that could change the world. The part of me that is still eight years old, in applying that emotional logic to the Universal monsters, leads me to identify with both Frankenstein and his monster.\nActs of Varying Immorality\nOf course, I don\u2019t have anyone\u2019s deaths on my conscience. Frankenstein\u2019s monster, on the other hand, kills three people over the course of Universal\u2019s Frankenstein, and attacks a few others. The extent to which he is aware of the moral consequences of his actions is up for debate, though.\n(Oh, I\u2019m skipping plot recap for this one \u2013 you almost certainly know the key details of the Frankenstein story already.)\nThe connection between the \u201cabnormal\u201d nature of the monster\u2019s brain and his actions is fuzzy. Does he show so little remorse about killing Fritz the assistant and Dr. Frankenstein\u2019s old professor because his physical brain used to belong to a criminal, who potentially had a skewed or nonexistent moral compass himself? Or are his actions more those of an animal reacting in self-defense to Fritz\u2019s torment and the professor\u2019s impending dissection?\nThe amount of brutality the creature displays certainly varies. The three deaths he causes \u2013 those of Fritz, the professor, and Maria, the little girl \u2013 follow a decreasing arc of murderousness. The monster straight up hangs Fritz, presumably with the whip the assistant used to torture the monster. The professor\u2019s murder seems more of an act of self-defense. Despite having plenty of potential weapons at hand, the monster settles for strangling the old man. Maria\u2019s death is the least intentional; it appears to be a misunderstood extension of the let\u2019s-throw-pretty-things-in-the-water game (and it\u2019s honestly a little surprising that she died of being tossed a few feet into the water). There\u2019s no apparent ill will motivating the monster when he kills her.\nHowever unintentional the monster\u2019s killing of Maria may have been, there\u2019s no question that his assault of Dr. Frankenstein\u2019s fiancee, Elizabeth, is no fault of hers. She\u2019s simply a tool of the monster\u2019s quest for vengeance against Frankenstein. His later near-murder of Frankenstein comes in a moment of self-defense after his attempts to flee the angry villagers fail and is thus easier to defend. The attack on Elizabeth, though, makes the monster\u2019s morality in the last act of the movie complicated. As sympathetic as he sometimes is, and no matter how much he may misjudge his own strength, he is not a blameless innocent.\nNot from the actual movie. Image from Flickr user Pascal.\nThe Monstrous Questions\nThis leads us to a pair of enduring questions in many monster stories, questions that Dracula didn\u2019t raise. The simpler of the questions is, \u201cWho is the real monster of this story?\u201d The second is, \u201cWhat makes someone (or something) a monster?\u201d\nContinue reading \u201cFrankenstein and the Monstrous Questions\u201d \u2192\nOn January 3, 2018 By M.J. DiedrichIn Universal Icons\nFrom the Internet Movie Database http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0021814/mediaviewer/rm3327707392\nAnd so we begin at a beginning.\nNot the beginning. Dracula wasn\u2019t the first horror movie made by Universal, nor the first vampire movie based on Bram Stoker\u2019s novel. It was adapted from a play, which was based on the book, which was the crystallization of folk tales and lurid history.\nAnd yet it is still a beginning. The first of the Universal horror movies with spoken dialogue, and the first made under the leadership of Carl Laemmle, Jr., rather than that of his father. The first authorized adaptation of Dracula for film. The first of the iconic monster performances that would define an archetype.\nRenfield, an Englishman with little regard for the warnings of the townsfolk in Ye Olde Eastern European Village, travels to Castle Dracula to help Count Dracula finish taking ownership of and moving to Carfax Abbey in Britain. In return for his help, he is transformed into a manic slave who will spend the rest of the movie hungering for bugs and rats, staring wild-eyed at everyone he meets, and occasionally trying to resist Dracula\u2019s commands for brief episodes before ultimately succumbing to his master\u2019s will.\nIn London, Dracula takes in dinner and a show. Dinner comes in the form of a young woman selling flowers, and the show is a symphony performance that puts Dracula into conversation with his new neighbor. Dr. Seward runs a sanitarium (where Renfield has conveniently been confined) next to Carfax Abbey. Also in Seward\u2019s box at the symphony are his daughter, Mina, her fiancee John Harker, and their friend Lucy Weston, who is quite taken with the exotic count.\nDracula preys on Lucy, who dies of symptoms that perplex the British medical establishment while the Count moves on to Mina. Thankfully, the more open-minded Van Helsing shows up and accurately diagnoses the problem as caused by vampires. When he and Harker note that Dracula doesn\u2019t have a reflection in mirrors, Van Helsing confirms that the count is the vampire in question. Attempts to keep Mina safe fail, and she ends up falling victim to Dracula.\nWhen Van Helsing and Harker head to Carfax Abbey just before dawn in a final effort to save Mina, they are quickly discovered. Dracula kills Renfield before fleeing deeper into the abbey with Mina. He is just able to make it to his box of native soil to sleep before the sun rises, which leaves him vulnerable to Van Helsing\u2019s stake. Once Dracula is dead, Mina appears released from his thrall, and she and Harker walk up the long stairs leading out of the abbey.\nPredation and Vulnerability\nWatching Dracula in our current climate, I found myself drawing comparisons to the ongoing series of revelations about sexual harassment and abuse across contemporary U.S. society.\nDracula himself appears incapable of having a one-on-one conversation with another person without trying to control their mind, feed on them, or both. Even when it\u2019s not necessary \u2013 for example, his hypnosis of a ticket-taker at the symphony to tell Seward he has a call just to give Dracula a pretext for introducing himself \u2013 he winds up wielding his power over others.\nAlong the way, Dracula ends up making many others complicit in his predation. Renfield is the most prominent of these, but many other bit and supporting characters are turned into tools of Dracula\u2019s larger designs.\nAnd yet, Dracula is in many ways a pathetic and insecure creature. When Renfield arrives at Castle Dracula, there is no sign of any staff. Dracula is the one driving the coach to pick up Renfield, and is most likely the one to take Renfield\u2019s luggage to his room and prepare Renfield\u2019s meal. (These last two may have been accomplished by Dracula\u2019s \u201cwives,\u201d but in any case, there\u2019s no evidence of any servants.)\nWolfbane, crosses, and mirrors are among Dracula\u2019s weaknesses, and he tends to recoil from them with a pronounced lack of chill. His suave affect is easily disrupted, although he\u2019s also quick to put his composed front back up. Ultimately, he\u2019s not clever or powerful enough to save himself. Van Helsing knows how to take advantage of this predator\u2019s weaknesses, and does so after besting Dracula in a one-on-one contest of wills.\nThe use and abuse of power, in part to cover for insecurity, all while putting up a socially acceptable \u2013 at times, even enticing \u2013 front\u2026the parallels to the Harvey Weinsteins of the world strike me as pretty clear.\nOne of the features of storytelling in genres like horror, fantasy, or science fiction, of course, is the versatility of the metaphors. Dracula is not just a parallel to sexual predators; he\u2019s a parallel to predators of all types. For example, an audience member in 1931 and the years that followed might easily have drawn parallels to a different sort of predator on the world stage. Hitler, after all, was a man who used his power and the charisma he cultivated to prey on others, and was also a man of deep insecurities.\nFrom Flickr user Insomnia Cured Here https://www.flickr.com/photos/tom-margie/1539319426/\nThe Monster as Villain\nWhile many of the coming months\u2019 monsters will balance destructive acts with sympathy-inspiring vulnerabilities, Dracula is the unambiguous villain of his own movie. He preys on others literally and figuratively, violates consent left and right, and appears motivated by nothing more than a desire for more power. What led him to decide it was time to abandon Transylvania for Britain is left unsaid. When he arrives, however, he appears to have an elaborate plan already laid out. If he had managed to overcome Van Helsing, who knows how far his evil could have spread? (Those interested in this question who haven\u2019t already done so might be interested in reading Kim Newman\u2019s Anno Dracula, which explores this scenario.)\nI don\u2019t know if this will play out, but something I\u2019ll be keeping an eye on in the coming films is the degree to which a monster\u2019s unambiguous villainy is connected with their status in society. Dracula, while a foreigner in Britain, is still an aristocrat. His social status is quite high, and his monstrousness is never tempered with anything that would leave us sympathetic to him. We\u2019ll see how social status and sympathetic elements of character development relate in future films.\nIt\u2019s fascinating watching movies made shortly after sound became an option. The performances are very different from those in silent films, and it\u2019s interesting to see the influences of live theater interact with the cinematic techniques established during the silent era.\nThis movie also comes before the Hays Code was an aggressively-deployed tool of censorship in cinematic storytelling and technique. I\u2019ll be interested in seeing what, if anything, is different about the movies from later in the Code\u2019s existence.\nTrying to watch Bela Lugosi\u2019s performance with fresh eyes, discarding the decades of copycats, parodies, and counter-performances, is challenging, but makes for an enhanced viewing experience.\nJust a quick reminder that the time between the source material and the movie is shorter than I, at least, first realized. The book came out in 1897 and the movie in 1931, which is about the same length of time as if there was a movie of Stephen King and Peter Straub\u2019s The Talisman coming out this February.\nThis was a great movie to use as a beginning. I may post other thoughts as they come along between now and next Wednesday; goodness knows there\u2019s plenty more to say.",

Gavino Garay reports.\nIt's a formerly 'forbidden fruit' sure to be enjoyed by cigar aficionados on both sides of the Florida Straits. On the list of President Barack Obama's new Cuba policy are legalized Cuban cigars, regarded as some of the finest in the world. New provisions that may soon be implemented would make it legal to return to the United States with up to $100 of alcohol and tobacco. Milagros Diaz says Americans have been lining up at her Havana cigar shop, and they'll only get the finest. (SOUNDBITE) (Spanish) CIGAR-MAKER MILAGROS DIAZ SAYING: \"We are very happy. It is going to be very beautiful, all of the Cubans here are (looking) forward to the relations that the United States will have with Cuba and Cuba with the United States. In terms of Havana cigars, we are going to guarantee that they take back with them the best quality and the aroma of the tobacco leaves.\" But it may take some time before Americans can find a Cohiba to puff on in the States, as wholesale shipments would require Congressional approval.",

        "raw_content": "Seniors in almost every state are struggling to afford retirement\nby Melanie Hicken @melhicken October 9, 2014: 12:58 AM ET\nSeniors in almost every state in the country don't have enough income to get by comfortably.\nHouseholds ages 65 and older in the U.S. are living on an average of only $37,847 a year. That's around 60% of the annual earnings of today's 45- to 64-year olds and falls well short of the 70% in pre-retirement income that's typically recommended for retirees, according to an Interest.com analysis of 2013 Census Bureau data.\n\"It's clear that, nearly everywhere in the country, older Americans still don't have the kind of money coming in they need for a secure and comfortable retirement,\" said Mike Sante, managing editor of Interest.com.\nTo measure the financial health of senior households, analysts divided the median household incomes for residents 65 and older by the incomes of 45- to 64-year olds in each state to come up with income \"replacement rates.\"\nRelated: 3 risks every retirement saver should know\nOf all 50 states, only seniors living in Nevada have incomes that would replace more than 70% of their working counterparts' earnings, the site found. Washington D.C. also beats that threshold, with a rate of nearly 74%.\nOther states where retirees came close to hitting the savings benchmark included Hawaii (69.1%), Arizona (68.2%), Mississippi (68.1%) and Florida (67.8%).\nNevada and Hawaii are not only big retirement destinations, they also have strong union cultures so retirees in these states are more likely to receive monthly pension checks -- an increasingly rare retirement benefit, Sante said. The same goes for Washington D.C. where retired government workers receive federal pensions.\nMeanwhile, popular retirement spots like Arizona and Florida tend to attract wealthier seniors from other states, which pushes up median incomes for seniors there.\nRelated: America's oldest workers: Why we refuse to retire\nOn the flip side, seniors are worst off in Massachusetts and North Dakota, where they live on less than half of the income earned by their younger counterparts.\nIn other costly Northeastern states like Connecticut and New Jersey, seniors have replacement rates that are barely above 50%.\nWhile many Northeast states have historically higher living costs, North Dakota's income disparity can be attributed to the massive oil boom, which has boosted salaries there, Sante said.\nBut the boom has also pushed housing and living costs higher, making it hard for retirees who haven't benefited from the influx of jobs.\n\"The bottom line is (seniors) are still out there competing for goods and services with younger Americans who are working,\" Sante said.\nBest and worst states for retirement income\nMedian Income (Age 65 and up)\n% of workers' income replaced\nSource: Interest.com",

        "raw_content": "About Moore Electrique Ltee.\nOver 45 years of highly-skilled service\nMoore Electrique has been a family business since 1968. Servicing montreal and all the surrounding areas. As members of the corporation of master electricians of Quebec (CMEQ), RBQ and CCQ we are fully licensed,insured and bonded to handle any job. Whether it\u2019s a residential renovation, commercial service even new construction we are ready to help you through your next project. All of our technicians will treat your home or office as if it was one of their own.\nWith over 45 years in the industry we are proud to say we have seen it all.\nPresident and Owner of Moore Electrique, Jeffrey Deskin has been a licensed electrician since 1979. Having grown up in the Montreal area Jeffrey was always intrigued by electricity. Moore Electrique has always been a family business, it started back in 1968 by Al Moore who then handed the business to his son Howard. After a short battle with cancer Howie passed away. Jeffrey then realized what an opportunity he had in front of him. He could be the owner of an already established electrical company. He went to write his master electrician exams in 1995. In 2004 his son Jordan joined the company and has been taught by his father. Being a family business for almost 50 years we treat all our customers as family.\nMy husband and I are considering buying a house that has aluminium wiring. Is it safe?\nAluminum wiring was used in the 1970\u2019s for a very brief period time. Aluminum wiring was being pushed for sale without having been tested fully. As a more malleable metal aluminum has the tendency to weaken at the connection point. However it is safe as long as it is inspected and treated by a professional. Since aluminum wiring was pulled off the shelf in the late \u201970s it has made its return to the market but only in larger gauges.\nHow can we reduce our heating cost?\nEveryone is always looking to save some $$$. This is a very common question. One of the biggest improvements anyone can make is to replace your old rotary thermostats to programmable thermostats. This way you can automatically lower the temperature when you\u2019re not home.\nWe were recently asked to renovate a kitchen in an early 1900's home. Once the demolition began the owner noticed they had knob and tube wiring. Is this an issue?\nUpon arriving on site we quickly told the customer that we are not allowed to make any modifications on such an electrical system. Many insurance companies refuse to give insurance policies if knob and tube is present. Our immediate recommendation would be to consider upgrading your electrical system. Yes it can be a very costly job but knowing your house is safe is our peace of mind.",

        "raw_content": "Preview: Rolling into Chicago - Manitoba Moose\nBy: Colin Peterson | Published: February 2nd 2019\nFeb. 2, 2019 at CHICAGO WOLVES\nThe Manitoba Moose (20-19-3-2) roll into the den of the Chicago Wolves (24-15-5-1) tonight, for their fourth meeting of the season. With puck drop at 7 p.m. CT, the game will be available on moosehockey.com/listenlive/, the Moose App, and streaming live on AHLTV.\nManitoba enters today\u2019s contest with a 3-2 overtime win still fresh on their minds from last night in Milwaukee. Chicago also played on Friday night, losing 5-2 to the IceHogs in Rockford.\nThe last time the Moose and Wolves met was Nov. 18 at Allstate Arena in Chicago. The Wolves picked up a 4-2 victory despite Moose netminder Ken Appleby stopping 39 of 42 shots, and JC Lipon scoring twice.\nTonight\u2019s matchup is a meeting of one of the hottest teams in the AHL, and a roster fighting to hold onto their playoff spot. Manitoba being the former, with a record of 7-2-1-2 in their last 12 games. Chicago, the latter, hold a record of 4-6-2-0 in their last 12 outings.\nPlayers to watch for tonight are familiar for Moose fans. Seth Griffith pushed his point streak to 10 games (1G, 13A), while Logan Shaw potted his 19th goal of the season, and sixth in his last eight games. The two 26 year olds are tied for the team lead with 31 points on the year.\nGriffith could be an added factor as he leads the Moose-Wolves series this season thanks to a five-point (2G, 3A) two-game set at Bell MTS Place earlier this season (Nov. 2/3).\nLast night\u2019s tussle with Milwaukee did end one of the season\u2019s more interesting streaks for the Moose. Eric Comrie pushed his record to 8-2-3 since Christmas, making 27 of 29 saves, for his 16th win on the campaign. Facing the 29 shots meant the end of 12-straight games in which Comrie faced at least 30 shots from his opposition. The Edmonton, Alta. native leads the AHL in minutes (1,845:57), saves (962), shots faced (1042), all while holding the league\u2019s third-highest save percentage (0.923)\nOne thing Comrie hasn\u2019t done this season, is start against the Wolves. In 2017-18, however, the former Winnipeg Jets second round pick (59th overall, 2013) won five of his six starts against Chicago. Comrie won all three of his starts in Allstate Arena last season stopping, 81 of 84 of the Wolves\u2019s shots.\nThe Moose have one more stop (Feb. 6, in Grand Rapids) before they return home for a six-game home stand. That begins on Feb. 9 against the Texas Stars on Multicultural Night. Head to moosehockey.com/tickets/ for tickets to all upcoming home games.",

This post is from a great man of God \u201cBilly Graham\u201d who answered a lady\u2019s letter about falling in love with another man while married.\nI cannot help but feel that most ladies these days have probably confused Romantic feelings with true love. There is nothing wrong with romantic feelings, of course, but it\u2019s easy for these to fade after a period of time if there is not something deeper. When these romantic feelings begin to fade they can even deceive us into thinking that true love has gone forever. Commitment to your marriage or partner is a determination on your part that you will remain committed to your husband or partner for the rest of your life, no matter what the future may hold for you. True love, you see, is more than feelings of romance.\nIt would therefore be very wrong for you to be misled by your feelings and become interested in another man. You can have a stable marriage or relationship, however, if you determine in your heart that you are committed, and that you will do anything possible to make your relationship grow stronger.\nEnlighten yourself more with Matthew 19:6\nThis entry was posted in Uncategorized and tagged Motivated and Free, Romantic Feelings And True Love.

Matriculation Ceremony in all Institutions of higher learning marks the formal admission of Fresh Students into the institution, and all Fresh Students must participate fully by swearing to the Oath of Admission and signing the Matriculation Register before they are regarded as bona \u2013 fide students of the Institution, and so entitled to all rights and privileges appertaining therein. The rights and privileges of course can be withdrawn if the conduct of the student is found to be inimical to the well-being of the institution.\nI am glad to announce to this gathering that Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike (MOUAU) admitted only about 4,450 students this year, out of the over 18,000 who passed and qualified to be admitted into Joint Admissions and Matriculation Examination among thousands that selected MOUAU as University of their Choice. This immediately tells you how precious this admission is, and should be, to our Matriculants today.I join your families, friends, and well-wishers to congratulate you on your initiation into academic life. You really deserve my congratulations.\nThe 2018 admission year was full of rigours and unforeseen frictions, occasioned by the introduction of Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board\u2019s (JAMB) Central Admission Process System (CAPS).\nAnother major challenge was the Strike Actions by the various Unions that make up the Academic Community. First the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) in September 2017 embarked on warning strike, followed by the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non Academic Staff Union (NASU) whose strike started mid-way into the admission process. However, we thank God that despite these challenges, we pulled through and are gathered here today to celebrate your matriculation.\nI want to encourage you to face your academics squarely and not give any room to the devil. This University has maintained and will continue to maintain a zero tolerance for all anti \u2013 social behaviours such as cultism, examination malpractice, hooliganism, prostitution and such other vices. The University has enjoyed relative peace over the years, and you are therefore advised to keep to the matriculation oaths and stay away from any activity(s) that will constitute a threat to the peace of this noble institution of learning, as any manifestation of such ills shall be dealt with in accordance with the University rules and regulation. It is also important to remind you to be security conscious in view of the state of the nation. Do not keep late nights. Do not move alone particularly when it is dark. Be careful of the kind of friends you keep.\nFinally, you are urged to obey the rules and regulations of the institution. The Governing Council, Senate,Management,and Staff of this institution have great interest in your progress and would do everything within her powers to protect your genuine academic efforts.\nMy sincere prayer for you is that you graduate promptly in flying colours, and become useful to yourself, your family, the Nigerian Nation and the World.\nOnce again, Congratulations for making it into Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike.\nProf. Francis Otunta, FNATE, FIIA, FIMC, JP\nVice-Chancellor MOUAU.",

        "raw_content": "by Lance Heard \u00b7 August 18, 2018\nNetflix will have hits and misses in its quest to master the process of providing quality original content. As Calibre (2018), Sunday\u2019s Illness (2018) and other European offerings demonstrate, Europe will be a well tapped source for Netflix. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (2018) is one that falls into the category of a miss. Let\u2019s explore why.\nWritten By: Don Roos, Kevin Hood, and Thomas Bezucha\nStarring: Lily James, Michiel Huisman, Glen Powell, Jessica Brown Findlay, Katherine Parkinson, Matthew Goode, Tom Courtenay and Penelope Wilton.\nThe Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is a historical romance/drama based in 1940\u2019s England. It follows investigative journalist and author Juliet Ashton (James) and the prevalent theme in the movie is how people deal with losses that occur during war.\nDial Press published the novel that the film is based on in 2008. Mary Ann Shaffer originated the story after conducting research for a biography in England. Upon her death, Shaffer\u2019s niece, Annie Barrows finished the manuscript.\nProducers began work on the adaptation in 2010 with a plan to start filming in 2012. Five years, and numerous cast changes later, filming commenced from a screenplay by Kevin Hood, Don Roos, and Tom Bezucha. The combined efforts of StudioCanal, Blueprint Pictures and the Mazur/Caplan Company made it happen.\nIt\u2019s Based on a Book\nI wish I had read the novel. That\u2019s because I enjoy them, and they often offer much more than what films can. I get flustered at times by the choices screenwriters make when they adapt novels. Often what they do is arbitrary, and I wonder sometimes if it might be little more than an attempt to justify the fee for service. I think when the source material is strong, the potential for a good movie is high. But if the writer doesn\u2019t recognize what makes the prose special, and leaves that out, what chance does the picture have then? Perhaps that\u2019s what happened with The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.\nThe novel is a series of letters, correspondence between Juliet Ashton and Dawsey Adams (Huisman), a local Guernsey farmer and member of the Society. Guernsey is an Island in the English Channel that Nazi Germany occupied during the war. Ashton lives in London. Watching the movie, you see very little attention paid to the letters between them. I assumed there were only a few. Now I wonder what was lost in the transition from the novel to the film since the bulk of the novel was in the letters.\nThe Island of Guernsey\nNewell filmed on the island and with good reason. The scenes overflow with charm and have an enchanting quality. It is a beautiful country with a challenging past. Through flashbacks Society members Isola Pribby (Parkinson), Eben Ramsey (Courtenay), Amelia Maugery (Wilton) and Adams reveal some of the hardships brought on by German occupation. However, they gave very little of the details, which I imagine the novel provided.\nEach of the Society members is unique and appealing. I credit this to the acting performances. I wanted to get to know them more after spending time visiting one of the Society meetings. However, the script focused too much on Ashton and her interactions with her American friend, Mark Reynolds (Powell) and her publisher (Goode), that really did not make for enjoyable viewing.\nThis gets to one of the principle problems for the movie. There were too many stories. We end up without one good one to appreciate. Remember, three people wrote the screenplay. One movie was about Guernsey and the Society. Then story two was about Ashton, her writing career and friendship with her publisher. Finally, story three was about Ashton and her romantic relationships. Since the movie is only two hours long, you see how it just ran out of time, not leaving enough to treat any of them with the emphasis they deserved.\nImage via Boomtown Rap\nJuliet Ashton Seeks Refuge in Guernsey\nIn the movie we clearly see Ashton is struggling with her career and the impact the war had on her. She sees a trip to Guernsey to research an article as away to collect herself and figure things out. This is well worth watching. I enjoyed it because Lily James gave such a strong performance. She proved her acting ability in Darkest Hour (2017), holding her own opposite Gary Oldman and his Oscar-winning performance as Winston Churchill.\nHere is where the story runs into trouble. As Ashton learns more about the Society and the history of Guernsey, we get to also. Instead of providing the pay off expected, the story drifts back to Ashton\u2019s publisher who has another agenda. But before Ashton resolves that her friend Reynolds interrupts. The audience is left trying to figure out what happened.\nThe Fascinating Title of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society\nThe movie has a fascinating title. It\u2019s adorable. And so is the Society. They actually met and read books, discussing them \u2019til all hours of the night. What fun. That was a connection they had with Juliet Ashton, she was an author they identified with. And they enjoyed her type of prose. This made for a genuine link between her, the Society, and in particular, its members.\nThis is also where the theme of the movie is most influential. Here you have a community which has literally been captured by an invading army. There\u2019s a scene of victorious soldiers parading through the streets that captures this fabulously. Consequently, you learn the trauma caused by such an event. How? Imagine being occupied for years under wartime conditions. The result is that you feel for each person as he or she attempts to return to normalcy, to lead a happy life. Is it even possible?\nIf the movie had just focused on that story it would have been a much better product. Instead it tried to be romantic, a choice that is hard to understand. Again, each of the actors deserves credit here. Michiel Huisman is someone I enjoyed seeing in smaller parts in Wild (2014) and The Age of Adaline (2015). I appreciate seeing him perform well in a much larger role. Penelope Wilson reminded me of why I enjoyed her so much in the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2012) and the sequel. Katherine Parkinson I did not know before, but now I hope to see much more of her, she really captures your attention with her engaging onscreen presence.\nIf you are fans of the actors in this movie you will find them a joy to watch as they give very fine performances. However, the story just does not deliver. It doesn\u2019t rise to the level of effort the actors gave. They present as serious people who seek thoughtful solutions to the mature challenges facing them. So the romantic twist to how they behave doesn\u2019t make sense. The story should have been better. It could have been, and perhaps would have been, if it had followed the plot of the novel. If fans of the book are disappointed, at least they have the novel to fall back on.\nThank you for reading!

There may be spoilers in my comments. To your point about the book being largely correspondence \u2013 it was completely correspondence and did a good job of moving the story forward in spite of that. I thought that commendable. There was much more correspondence between Juliet and Dawsey before she arrived in Guernsey. I will refer to the book here. There was a lot of correspondence between Juliet and Sydney (her publisher and friend). It explained their relationship and also included much correspondence between Sydney\u2019s sister, Juliet\u2019s best friend, and Juliet. Sydney\u2019s secretary had a minor role but a huge part in a subplot which I found most interesting. I was sorry that was left out of the movie. The Mark relationship was more mentioned in the book than in the movie (there was a lot more time before Guernsey in the book) and offered better explanations as to the failing of it. There was a wonderful relationship that took a little time to develop between Juliet and Kit in the book and there were a lot more references to Kit\u2019s mother (name escapes me). The parallel life of her and Juliet was mildly interesting. As I neared the end of the book, I was ready for it to end. I had figured out the ending, which is not unusual in a romance. The thing that was left out, which involved the secretary, was one of the more interesting parts of the book. I suppose you can\u2019t include everything. It could have handled its own subplot line though. That being said, I gave the book 3 stars and I enjoyed the movie, too. I cannot speak to how I would have felt about it if I had not read the book. Watching the film\u2019s location and the fine acting was a plus.\nGreat book. Meh for the movie\nI really only wanna see this film to satisfy my Anglophile-ness by seeing all these great British acting icons acting together.\nI am glad I saw it. I found the actors to be terrific!\nAyon chowdhury says:\nIt would have been a much better product.\nTransformers \u2018Bumblebee\u2019 Spin-Off to Get Released the Same Week as \u2018Aquaman\u2019",

In addition to his nominations for Score of the Year, Comedy Score, and Film Music Composition of the Year, Hurwitz also secured personal nominations as Composer of the Year and Breakthrough Composer of the Year; \u201cLa La Land\u201d is just Hurwitz\u2019s second theatrical score, following his debut \u201cWhiplash\u201d in 2014.\nPolish composer Korzeniowski is nominated for his work on three projects: director Tom Ford\u2019s stylish noir revenge drama \u201cNocturnal Animals,\u201d the third and final season of the popular Showtime Gothic horror television series \u201cPenny Dreadful,\u201d and the new retrospective compilation album of his career in Poland, \u201cEarly Works,\u201d produced by Caldera Records.

The film stars Jeremy Irons playing a duel role as Elliot and Beverly Mantle, identical twin brothers, both gynecologists, who run a successful medical practice in Toronto. The more charming and confident Elliot seduces women who come to him for fertility treatment, and \u2018shares\u2019 them with the more shy and introverted Beverly, without the women realizing that they are sleeping with two different men. Things change when a new patient, actress Claire Niveau (Genevi\u00e8ve Bujold), comes to their clinic. Claire is extremely sexually liberated, but is also addicted to prescription drugs; despite this, Beverly falls in love with her, and is shattered when she finds out about their duplicity and breaks off the relationship. Before long, Beverly\u2019s world is crumbling in a mass of drug abuse, paranoid delusions, and horrific visions of mutated female genitalia \u2013 which causes Elliot to take drastic action to save him.

Based on a short story by George Langelaan and directed by David Cronenberg, the film stars Jeff Goldblum as Seth Brundle, a brilliant but desperately eccentric scientist working on a teleportation device in an attempt to solve the world\u2019s transportation problems. Brundle meets reporter Veronica Quaife (Geena Davis) when she comes to his laboratory to interview him, and the two develop a mutual attraction which blossoms into a romantic relationship. However, Brundle is frustrated with his lack of progress with the device, and rushes into trying new and increasingly dangerous experiments in order to speed up the process. One day, despite Veronica\u2019s protestations, he tests the device on himself; after successfully jumping from one teleportation pod to another, he declares his machine a triumph \u2013 but, unknown to Brundle, a common house fly found its way into the machine with him. Now, having had his human DNA merged with that of the fly at a cellular level, Brundle begins to slowly, grotesquely, mutate, with terrible consequences for all.

The fallout from the investigation was known as the Massachusetts Catholic Sex Abuse Scandal, led to the trial and subsequent imprisonment of dozens of priests, and rocked the hierarchy within the Catholic church, in America, and across the world. Tom McCarthy\u2019s film Spotlight looks at how the four journalists \u2013 who went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service \u2013 broke the story. It stars Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel McAdams and Brian d\u2019Arcy James as the journalists, and has a wonderful supporting cast of character actors, including Stanley Tucci, Liev Schreiber, John Slattery, Jamey Sheridan, Paul Guilfoyle, and Billy Crudup.

        "title": "MR Online | Why No Government Jobs Program?",
        "raw_content": "Posted Oct 24, 2009 by Richard D. Wolff\nFrom the official beginning of the current economic crisis in December 2007 to the present, the number of unemployed workers has risen roughly from 7 to 15 million members of the US labor force. But there is no government program directly to hire these millions of the unemployed. The Bush and Obama administrations quickly and boldly addressed the crisis by socializing a major part of the credit system, replacing or guaranteeing private debts with a ballooning US government debt. While aggressively becoming the lender or guarantor of last resort in many credit markets, the federal government has been inactive about unemployment in the labor market. The private sector provides ever fewer jobs, yet the government refuses to become the employer of last resort.\nTo understand why government employment is not used to deal with mass private unemployment, we can benefit from examining US history\u2019s last experience of a major capitalist breakdown, the Great Depression of the 1930s. Consider below the official record of unemployment in the Statistical Abstract of the United States: 1950: Table 209 on page 175.\nThe stunning rise in unemployment after the crash hit in 1929 peaked in 1933 at almost a quarter of the labor force. FDR\u2019s efforts at anti-depression measures were inconsistent and ineffective in terms of their employment effects. Unemployment stayed at 20-25 per cent of the labor force from 1932 through 1935. While it fell in 1936 and 1937 \u2014 although not much below 15 per cent \u2014 it rose again in 1938 to almost 20 per cent.\nFrom 1929 to 1940, the total US labor force grew by almost 7 million workers, but the total number of people employed in 1940 was still less than the number employed in 1929. The unemployed numbered over 8 million in 1940 as against 1.5 million in 1929. The huge and long-term social costs of unemployment piled up across those 11 years of economic depression.\nYet the table above also shows what a serious government employment program can do. What finally ended unemployment was NOT an effective anti-depression economic policy or program. Leaders then never produced that. Instead, what \u201csolved\u201d the economic problem of unemployment was rather a military policy, namely US entry into World War 2. What brought the number of unemployed people back down to the 1929 level was (1) inducting over 11 million US citizens into the military and (2) simultaneously providing another 5 million jobs in the civilian, private sector to provision the armed forces. All this happened even as the US labor force grew dramatically. Under certain economic and political conditions, the government can function very effectively as the employer of last resort.\nYet it so rarely does so. The capitalist economic system, always unstable in its recurring business downturns/cycles/busts, periodically produces deep and long depressions. Today\u2019s is the second of these in 25 years, and between these two there were a dozen business cycles. Economic policies other than massive government jobs programs, under both Democrats and Republicans, have been insufficient to cope with the unemployment in most of these downturns and especially in the deep and long ones. So it is today.\nCapitalist instability and crises are always political as well as economic problems. Their solution has always required particular combinations of economic and political conditions and movements. Absent those, government policies tend to be inconsistent and ineffective. Across the 1930s, economic policies lacked the accompanying political policies and conditions to succeed in overcoming mass unemployment. So far in the current capitalist crisis, economic policies have once again lacked the political conditions needed to succeed.\nToday, as in the 1930s, the political problem is not lack of mass popular support on the subjective level. Then and now, most people want massive government activity to end unemployment, foreclosures, reduced public services, and so on. Then and now, the opposition to such massive government intervention comes chiefly from capitalists (corporate boards of directors and major shareholders) who do not want to pay additional taxes for a larger government that might control or regulate or compete with them. The corporate boards that receive the bulk of the profits produced by US workers can and do use them to block the government from becoming employer of last resort. Their strategy today aims to keep that issue off the agendas of legislative bodies or even of public discussion.\nThe private sector generates massive unemployment and then prevents the state from ending it with the kinds of massive programs needed to do that. The exception to this rule occurs when powerful political forces arise that push in the direction of massive government employment. Adversaries who became enemies in World War 2 provided the political conditions enabling the US government to undertake the mobilization that ended the 11-year mass unemployment of the Great Depression. But war need not be the only means for the political mobilization needed to enact a government employment program (even though that has been the norm in many capitalist crises).\nObama today, like Bush and FDR before him, faces a basically similar situation. He has the political space and support to help banks, securities dealers, insurance companies, etc. to revive collapsed private credit markets and to rescue firms that his administration designates as \u201ctoo big to fail.\u201d However, he seems unable or unwilling to mobilize the mass political support needed to make the US government become the employer of last resort. And there is plenty of corporate opposition. Absent such active political support for a government jobs program, Obama will continue to be at least as ineffective in solving today\u2019s unemployment problem as FDR was in the 1930s. Indeed, Obama\u2019s record may well be worse, since we lack today the strong labor union, socialist, and communist movements that pressured FDR.\nA serious government jobs program was never a matter of economics and economic policy alone; it was always a matter of political economy.\nRichard D.

        "raw_content": "State & County Master Gardener Coordinators with Dr. David Gibby (back row, center), co-founder of the Master Gardener Program.\nThe History of the Master Gardener Program and it's adaptation for Montana\nThe Master Gardener Program was first started by Dr. David Gibby with the Washington State Cooperative Extension Service in 1973. It grew out of a need to meet an enormous increase in requests from home gardeners for horticultural information. Master Gardeners have become a vital part of Extension\u2019s ability to provide consumers with up-to-date reliable information. Master Gardening has also given its participants a sense of community spirit, accomplishment and intellectual stimulation. Currently, there are active Master Gardener programs in all 50 states, 9 Canadian provinces and South Korea. Master Gardener is the second largest volunteer service organization in the US.\nIn 1974, just one year after the initial development of the Master Gardener program in Washington state, Gerry Marks, Missoula County Extension agent established the first county Master Gardener program in Montana. This came about because of the sizable increase in the number of questions coming in regarding horticulture with no resources available to handle the volume of calls from the public. Marks was able to meet the needs of the community by utilizing Master Gardener trained volunteers.\nThe late Dr. Robert \u201cBob\u201d Gough expanded the Master Gardener program across the state in 1995, after he began his career at Montana State University as an associate professor of horticulture and state Extension specialist. He had co-founded a Master Gardener program in Rhode Island previously in 1975 and applied that method to Montana. The goal was to provide the public with general horticultural information in a concise manner while promoting education through volunteerism.\nIn 2010, when Toby Day became the MSU Horticulture Associate Specialist and Montana Master Gardener Coordinator, he noticed that the level of knowledge in students taking the Master Gardener courses varied widely. Beginning gardeners were often overwhelmed by the scope of some of the more advanced classes while seasoned gardeners were uninspired with the basic subjects. Day created the unique 3-tiered course structure that the Montana Master Gardener Program currently uses. No other state currently uses this style of course structure. By breaking out the Levels, Day enabled the program to be taken in segments rather than all at once, which allows more people to participate. The program remains in this 3-tiered structure under the current state program coordinator.",

It was peopled soon after the deluge by the children of Shem, the son of Noah. In course of time, the brave Yarab established the kingdom of Yemen, whence the Arabs derive the names of themselves and their country.\u201d\n\u201cIn Alexandria, the Mohammedans wrought direful vengeance on Christians for the crimes which the arrogant and fanatical St. Cyril had committed there two centuries before, by extirpating Grecian learning and by inciting his monks to under the wise Hypatia. The extreme northern part of Africa brought their armies to a sudden halt. Here they encounter two strong foes. First, the people called Berbers \u201cthe Noble,\u201d a tall, noble-looking race of men, active, high spirited and indomitable.\u201d\n\u201cThey [Berbers] had the same patriarchal habits, the same Shemitic features, were equally skilled in the use of arms and the breeding and handling of horses, and so the Arabs believed them to be of their own race. The Northern coast of Africa has been called by the Romans, from the dark complexion of its people: Mauritania and its people were called Mooriscos, or Moors. When the superior force of the Arabians compelled the Moors to submit, at last, the conquerors and the conquered coalesced so completely, that in less than a decade the one could not be distinguished from the other.\u201d\nSee The Jews and Moors in Spain By Joseph Krauskopf\nTags: africa, Moors, Arabs, Berbers, Christians, Shem, Noble, Jews, Mauritania, Shemetic, Semetic, Hypatia, Cyril, Alexandria, Mooriscos",

Play On, Nashville!, is set for Tues., May 3 at the Opry House. Among those scheduled to perform are Brad Paisley, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, Charlie Daniels Band, and more.\nNashville charitable organizations including Hands On Nashville, the American Red Cross, and United Way of Metropolitan Nashville will provide promotion codes to their supporters such that $10 from every ticket purchased using the codes will be returned to the charity. Additionally, proceeds from Play On, Nashville! commemorative prints available exclusively at the Opry House that night will go to Hands On Nashville.\nNashvillians can be a part of the night by submitting photos of their flood relief efforts to be shown in the Opry\u2019s signature barn backdrop during the show. The photos, which will also be used in the commemorative print from the night, should be submitted [email protected] no later than Thurs., April 28.\nThe Grand Ole Opry House was one of Nashville\u2019s most famous icons affected by the May 2010 flood. Four feet of water engulfed the stage, and the show temporarily moved to several other Nashville venues throughout the summer before returning to the Opry House following an around-the-clock six-month recovery and restoration.\n\u201cThe May 2010 flood devastated homes, businesses, and lives, but it also showcased the unsinkable spirit of our city and its citizens in ways we are still learning about a year later,\u201d said Pete Fisher, Opry vice president and general manager. \u201cWe want to celebrate that the Opry\u2019s hometown is stronger than ever the best way we know how\u2014 with a one-of-a-kind night of great music.\u201d\nBig Machine Label Group Joins iHeartRadio Lineup \u00bb\n\u00ab Darius Rucker Marks Latest No. 1 With Media Rounds",

Photo: Moments By Moser Photography\nThe evening began with the hit 1974 instrumental \u201cTSOP\u201d as people took their seats. Skaggs, Wariner, Felder and Gordon Kennedy then lined up to harmonize on \u201cSeven Bridges Road.\u201d The song was written by Steve Young, who passed away earlier this year.\n\u201cWhat an amazing group of singers,\u201d said Felder. \u201cWhat a spectacular night. Thank you for coming.\u201d He then performed his Eagles composition \u201cVictim of Love.\u201d\nFrom out in the crowd came solo soprano-sax notes. A spotlight pointed out Kenny G, who slowly made his way down through the audience to take the stage while playing.\n\u201cI\u2019m Kenny G, your host for the night, and I am honored to host the fifth annual Musicians Hall of Fame ceremony,\u201d he said. \u201cThis museum celebrates players, and that\u2019s why we\u2019re here tonight.\u201d\nSkaggs took the stage to sing \u201cHeartbroke.\u201d This song was authored by Guy Clark, who also died this year.

He thanked Sharon White, his wife of 35 years, as well as her 85-year-old, still-performing father Buck White and her sister Cheryl, among others. \u201cMost of all, I want to thank the Lord Jesus for giving me the talent,\u201d concluded Skaggs.\nAFM president David Pomeroy explained that the union partners with the Musicians Hall of Fame to vote on who gets into the Hall. \u201cIt\u2019s a Lifetime Achievement award, regardless of genre or era,\u201d Pomeroy said. \u201cThank you for supporting these great musicians.\u201d\nHe next saluted the four honored engineers. \u201cMasters of their craft, welcome to the Musicians Hall of Fame!\u201d stated Pomeroy. Tarsia, Miller, Reynolds and Bradley offered acceptance speeches.\nWariner inducted his friend and mentor Jerry Reed (1937-2008).

Thank you for recognizing his genius tonight.\u201d\nHonorees perform during the Musicians Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Photo: Moments By Moser Photography\nMelinda Doolittle honored the Sigma Sound team. \u201cIt took a lot of sensitivity to create The Sound of Philadelphia,\u201d she said.\nThe living members present to accept were Charles Collins (drums), Bobby Eli (guitar), Dennis Harris (guitar), Jimmy Williams (bass) and Earl Young (drums). Others on that team included the absent Tommy Bell (keyboards) and the late Ronnie Baker (guitar), Norman Harris (guitar), Vince Montana (vibes), TJ Tindall (guitar) and Larry Washington (congas).\nStylistics vocalist Thompkins drew standing ovations for \u201cYou Make Me Feel Brand New,\u201d \u201cStone in Love with You\u201d and \u201cBetcha By Golly Wow.\u201d Doolittle joined him on the 1979 Philadelphia Sound hit \u201cAin\u2019t No Stoppin\u2019 Us Now.\u201d\n\u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for them, I wouldn\u2019t have had a job for the last 45 years,\u201d said Thompkins of the honorees. \u201cThis is their night.\u201d\nKenny G brought out the Musicians Hall of Fame\u2019s founder. Joe Chambers got a standing ovation and introduced attendees Gary Tallent, James Burton and Steve Cropper seated in the audience. He then invited Frampton to the stage, who drew another s.o.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nice to be back,\u201d said Frampton. He explained that Felder was being presented with Musicians Hall of Fame\u2019s Iconic Riff award for the guitar part he created for \u201cHotel California,\u201d which Felder co-wrote.\nFrampton and Felder then recreated that twin-guitar rave-up on The Eagles\u2019 biggest hit. Garth Brooks stood, transfixed in admiration from the front row, as the two dueled instrumentally.\n\u201cThis is such an honor,\u201d said Felder. \u201cThank you all for helping me to do what I love to do.\u201d\nDickey Lee welcomed Reynolds to the Hall. In addition to Brooks, Reynolds is notable for producing hit discs for such stars as Crystal Gayle, Chris LeDoux, Bobby Bare, Hal Ketchum, Don Williams, Trisha Yearwood, Emmylou Harris, The O\u2019Kanes and Kathy Mattea.\n\u201cMy heroes have mostly been songwriters and musicians,\u201d said Reynolds. \u201cAs a producer, I have always known I am standing on their shoulders. I am forever in awe of their skills, especially The G-Men, Garth\u2019s studio band. I am so honored to be associated with their name in the Musicians Hall of Fame, as well as with Mark Miller. I would also like to thank the one and only Garth Brooks.\u201d\nThis evolved into the induction of The G-Men \u2014 Bruce Bouton (steel), Mark Casstevens (rhythm guitar), Rob Hajacos (fiddle), Chris Leuzinger (lead guitar), Milton Sledge (drums), Bobby Wood (keyboards) and the late Mike Chapman (bass). An earlier induction ceremony had been staged by Chambers with The G-Men to honor Chapman, a few days before his death in June.\nBrooks and The G-Men performed \u201cThe Thunder Rolls,\u201d the audience sing-along \u201cFriends in Low Places\u201d and \u201cThe Dance.\u201d The last-named got a standing ovation and was dedicated to Chapman.\n\u201cMike loved Garth and The G-Men with all his heart,\u201d said Chapman\u2019s widow Connie. \u201cHe passed with knowing he was so appreciated and loved. He had the chance to have The Dance.\u201d\n\u201cI know I speak for all of these guys when I say it\u2019s been a labor of love,\u201d said Casstevens. \u201cGarth, thank you for being the most loyal artist in music history, and for generously shining the spotlight on us so many times,\u201d added Leuzinger. \u201cTwenty-seven years [together in the studio],\u201d marveled Wood. \u201cI can\u2019t believe it. Thank you for celebrating with us tonight.\u201d\nReynolds inducted Brooks, who got yet another s.o. \u201cHe never acted like a star,\u201d said Reynolds. \u201cHe was always a team member. That\u2019s why the music turned out so well.\u201d Brooks, in turn, praised each member of his longtime studio band. He pointed out that Wood has now been inducted twice, thanks to previous recognition as a member of The Memphis Boys.\n\u201cWhat a night,\u201d exclaimed Kenny G. \u201cSuper impressive: I\u2019ve seen things I\u2019ve never seen before. It\u2019s been an honor [being the host]. This music is the fabric of our lives.\u201d\nThe all-star house band was joined by all of the honorees and celebrity guests in a finale jam session on the 1973 O\u2019Jays TSOP classic \u201cLove Train.\u201d\nThe Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum is located in the lower level of Municipal Auditorium.

        "raw_content": "David\u2019s #1: The World Turned Upside Down by Melanie Phillips\nIn the name of \u201crationality\u201d and \u201ctolerance\u201d the West is becoming increasingly irrational and intolerant. Melanie Phillips explores the scary reality that is the modern world and argues that we have lost the ability to think rationally as a culture. She argues that during the enlightenment, \u201creason\u201d undercut religion. But Christianity and the Hebrew Bible formed the foundation for reason. They provide the only form of foundation that exists. With this foundation scientists were previously able to search for answers, because they were based in the belief that answers exist. Now no such ability exists and many scientists are content to make preposterous claims rather than explore any compatibility between science and faith.\nThe author focuses on a few specific topics. First she uncovers the lie that is global warming. The glaciers are not melting and evil carbon emissions are not even a fraction as harmful as advertised. Next she discusses how our involvement in the war in Iraq was completely justified, pointing out, amongst other things, that it is very likely that nuclear weapons, or at a minimum their production capability, did exist and that Iraq had more than enough time to move or dispose of them. Thirdly, and I would say the most dominant theme in the book is the West\u2019s attack, misrepresentation, and demonization of Israel and the re-emergence of extreme anti-Semitic sentiments after a several decade reprieve following the Holocaust. Favor for the Jews has been replaced by irrational, misguided sympathy for Islamism.\nToday\u2019s world has been turned upside down so that ideology and the feel good culture have replaced rationality. A multitude of \u201ctruths\u201d now exist and the concept of truth has been completely relativized. Any attempt to say otherwise is viewed as absurd and bigoted. These dogmas abound on both the \u201cleft\u201d and the \u201cright.\u201d The only groups against whom bigotry is acceptable are those that attempt to insert fact and rationality, namely intelligent design scientists, conservative Christians and Israeli Jews. Phillips goes into great detail as to how Britain is at the forefront of this flipping of the world.\nThe book is very approachable, engaging and interesting. It is well researched and documented and reveals countless scary truths. I would highly recommend it.\n1 Comment on David\u2019s #1: The World Turned Upside Down by Melanie Phillips\nWell, well.

        "raw_content": "English: Code:Breaker\nSynonyms: Code Breaker\nFall 2012TVKinema Citrus\nRiding the bus one day, Sakurakouji Sakura looks out the window to see people being burned alive with a blue fire and a boy her age who's unharmed and standing over the people.\nShe comes back to the site the next day and there are no corpses or evidence of any kind of murder, just a small fire. She then goes to class to find there's a new transfer student, Oogami Rei, who looks exactly like the boy she saw before and wears a black glove only on his left hand.\nOogami is a Code Breaker, one who \"does not exist\". He is a seemingly cold-blooded killer who follows the principle of \"an eye for an eye\", to \"use evil against evil\". Convinced that killing is not right, Sakurakouji sets out to stop him and penetrate his icy heart.\nAdaptation: Code:Breaker\nSide story: Code:Breaker OVA\nOogami, Rei\nTenpouin, Yuuki\nFujiwara, Toki\nHeike, Masaomi\nHachiouji, Rui\nYukihina\nNyanmaru\nSagashimono\nIrie, Yasuhiro\nKikuta, Kouichi\n\"DARK SHAME\" by GRANRODEO\n\"Shiroi Karasu (\u30b7\u30ed\u30a4\u30ab\u30e9\u30b9)\" by Kenichi Suzumura\nAdaptation:Breaker\nTalk about a poor adaptation. After reading some of the manga, I was anticipating what this series could do when moved to the big stage aka. adapted into an anime. Not only does this series fail as an adaptation, but it fails as a stand-alone anime series. There were so many failures with this series that I don't even know where to begin. I guess let's start with the plot.\nThe plot itself is at least interesting. A select group of agents within the government, unbeknown to mankind with special abilities are hired to eliminate evil. This story follows one such agent who is assigned to protect a \"rare breed\", someone who has the ability to nullify special abilities. In my opinion, it's a decent plot...but the story's progression was weak and stereotypical. As the story progressed, it made for the reveal and story behind Hitomi seem underplayed. That's where the characters come in and it's probably the biggest weakness of this series.\nSakura Sakurakouji is quite possibly the worst lead character I've ever seen...at the very least the worst in a shonen series. While it's understandable that she has a strong sense of justice, she takes it to a downright ridiculously stupid degree. Her beliefs and her actions are so boneheaded that I groaned at least once in every episode where she said or did something. While yes, I'm aware her righteous actions in the manga are a little over the top, the anime blew it FAR out of proportion. At least for the most part Rei Ogami stayed in character...sort of. While most of the other characters did stay in character, I found how they re-worked the introduction of these characters apart from the manga to be underwhelming. As I mentioned before, that brings forth the antagonist, Hitomi. His story seemed so stereotypical that he was just a boring villain.\nThe scriptwriting was some of the most lackluster I had EVER seen in an anime. In fact, I'll just come out and say that this might be some of the worst script work I have EVER seen in an anime. It's amazing that this is the work of Yasuhiro Irie because I applauded his efforts with Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. The only thing I can guess is perhaps Irie bit off more than he could chew with this project. He was handling the direction, the series composition, the script writing, and the storyboard. He's not an experienced script writer and it showed in this series. This series reeked of under-staffing and Kinema Citrus should be ashamed that they didn't put in a better effort when it came to staffing.\nMy biggest complaint with this series is I think it strayed way too far from the manga. The manga did a stronger job of executing character development, comedy writing, and dramatic tension. The small nuances and stories that Kinema Citrus decided to cut out from the manga slightly ruined the bonding the characters had in this series. While I know Kinema Citrus isn't exactly the biggest or strongest production company on the market, I think their handling of the Code:Breaker series was far too ambitious for them. Code:Breaker is a long-running manga series. It's the sort of series that needs to be tackled by a production company that can put out episodes on a weekly basis like Studio Perriot (and that's not a compliment of Studio Perriot's work). Trying to condense Code:Breaker's plot into a 12 episode season just isn't possible without ruining the story and characters in any way, shape, or form. The animation and music was nothing special. Nothing about it was really all that memorable, although I did like the OP and ED. I didn't love them or found them captivating, but they were catchy enough for me to like.\nOverall, it's just a really poor adaptation. I'm not usually one who rips an anime for straying from it's predecessor but the problem is Code:Breaker did nothing for me as a stand-alone series to separate it from it's manga counterpart. Even looking at it from just an anime viewer's POV, it's a bland, boring, predictable, and stereotypical. It doesn't do anything to stand out, as an anime or an adaptation. If you're a fan of the Code:Breaker manga, I don't recommend watching this. If you do watch this anime and do like certain elements behind it, I would recommend giving the manga a chance. It's an entertaining read and was far better than this.\nIt can be describe as something wicked, malevolent, sinister, ill, or something which holds responsibility for the bad things that happen in this world. It's a four letter word that strikes fear, anxiety, and many other emotions. In the real world, people commit deeds through free will. Some of these are good deeds, while others are evil. In the Code Breaker world, there exists supernatural beings who are able to judge deeds (good/evil) and carry out justice with an iron fist.\nRei Ogami: \u201cAn Eye for an Eye, a Tooth for a Tooth, and Evil for Evil\u201d\nWelcome to the world of Code:Breaker.\nThe series is written by Akimine Kamijyo based off the manga of the same name who is also known for her previous work, Samurai Deeper Kyo. It all begins one day when Sakura, a local high school student, witnesses some blue flames like she's never ever seen before. Likewise, from there on and out, her life is changed forever.\nThe hero or maybe better seen as the anti-hero of Code:Breaker is Rei Ogami. He is the local bad boy with a tough attitude who does what he wants, when he wants, how he wants as long as it gets the job done. In his mind, there is no justice for evil and as he quotes one more time, \u201can eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and evil for evil\u201d. He expresses a darker side of \"justice\" similar to those more like a vengeance hero rather than some ally of justice like we see in pop culture.\nCode:Breaker doesn't avoid most of the cliches we see in most of today's themes. The common gag of 'boy meets girl' is employed but it doesn't just end there. Sakura Sakurakouji is portrayed as a school beauty and idol that is admirable by many of the students. Then, there's the mysterious transfer student Rei Ogami. Things like this is very common for anime viewers to see these days in the industry. To add on to this topping of cliches, there's an assumption that the two have a \u201cthing\u201d going on by nearly everyone at the entire school. They misunderstand their relationship and often misinterprets it as if the duo are dating.\nFrom there on and out, the two seems to have a strained relationship. In every way, Sakura tries to explain Ogami that killing others is \u201cwrong\u201d because it's the wrong thing to do. She strives to get her ideologies to Ogami in order to convince him to be a good hero and do the right thing. However, her words are often deaf to his ears as Ogami kills to protect others, at least in his point of view. At times, Ogami even expresses himself as evil and that in this world, in order to save lives, sacrifices are needed. He presents himself as not a hero in this case but rather as someone who is trying to do what he believes is \u201cright\u201d. The question here remains though:\nWould you kill to protect someone you care about?\nThe characterization of the other characters from the series is explored to a lesser degree although a few of them does stand out in particular of those associated with the Code:Breaker organization. Most if all of the Code Breakers has their own standard code of conduct (or rather their signature Code of Hammurabi) and coupled with them some supernatural abilities that makes them fearful of others. In fact, Code Breaker itself has become a term of both fear and hatred.\nThe Code Breakers themselves all have different personalities as well. Some are fun to watch such as the playful Yuuki Tenpouin while others are more straightforward and serious such as Rui Hachiouji. The most mysterious of the bunch are Masaomi Heike and Hitomi, two individuals who are very difficult to read. In fact, throughout the series they seem to be playing mind games with the other characters in particular Ogami. In the world of evil, there is injustice but in their eyes, they seem to represent evil themselves.\nLuckily for the ladies, this series presents some good bishonen sketch work. The characters' designs all possesses a sense of style by the way they dress, act, and presenting their ideas not through words but by their actions. Most of the time, they engage in what they do best and that's to deliver \u201cjustice\u201d to evil. At other times, they seem to be chilling around like ordinary people despite their feared status.\nThe series' theme itself also becomes a sense of philosophy. What exactly is evil and how it is defined? More importantly, how do we take actions against it? These questions often become ambiguous and may never have a direct answer. Nonetheless, the blue flame executed by Ogami seems to serve itself as a metaphor in which criminals are terminated by being burned to actions. Similar to how an individual goes to hell for wrong deeds, the flame itself manifests as a tool to destroy those who are evil, or at least those who are considered so under the eyes of the Code Breakers.\nIn the artwork department, everything seems quite generic. Most if not all the characters have the same design with different colored hair styles to match their themes. While pleasing to the female audience, it can become a bothersome after seeing it so many times. The backgrounds itself is just normal with nothing that really stand out as the setting is set in present time rather than a futuristic dystopia.\nThe soundtracks of the series is presented with mixed rhythms shifting from comedic, to action, to violence, and to mystery. The opening song, \"DARK SHAME\" by GRANRODEO has a rock beat and orchestrated with a montage of the main characters. From the song, a viewer can see some of the potential action and even foreshadowing of some events. It doesn't stop there though as it shows some of the violence in various scenes that are mostly presented by Ogami and his blue flames. As cliched as it sounds, the song does work effectively so no shame there.\nUltimately, Code:Breaker is a package of an action series that deals with the world of evil. It is cliched at many times especially with whole 'girl meets boy on a mysterious night' setting, the school life drama, the shounen like battles, and secret organizations. The drama and comedy also seems to be a bit forced as often times or not, they occur out of nowhere and tries to bring the audience a good laugh. It works sometimes but at other times just seems awkward. The series is just slightly above mediocre with the good premise and ideas but still contains too many overused tropes. However, if you're looking for some action packed thriller sequences with dark heroes, then C:B might be for you.\ntsuyo_sama (All reviews)\nNOTE: This is my first review at MAL, so please bear with me. Also, I haven\u2019t read the manga AT ALL, and I don\u2019t know if the manga\u2019s story is similar to the anime\u2019s. Consider this as a point of view of someone who just watched the anime. There are some spoilers along the way to explain my point in the review, so read at your own risk. :)\nI remembered watching the first few episodes of Code:Breaker (together with a few more anime) when it was still being aired last year. I got curious since I thought, \u201cHey another super power-themed shonen anime! Cool!\u201d After watching those few episodes, I stopped watching it and simply waited for the series to finish since I got tired of waiting for a new episode, which was released weekly.\nWhile watching the last episodes of Code:Breaker, I got disappointed to this anime due to various reasons, but mainly I got disappointed because of the plot. Well, it started good, but how the series ended is just bland and generic. Perhaps most of us (if not all of us) have seen a story with a character betraying the good guys, working for the bad guy, and then in the end, betraying that bad guy and saying that he has been in league with the good guys all along. Well, we have that kind of clich\u00e9 here. How about the Big Bad showing up after the bad guy gets defeated? We also have it here. The great presentation made at the start of the story was wasted by how they ended this series, which is clich\u00e9-filled, and done in a bad way at that.\nAnother thing here is the characterization of, well, the characters, which doesn\u2019t seem real and human enough for me, and it shows more as the series progresses. Come on, someone who really IS evil doesn\u2019t say he\u2019s evil; rather, he would say that he\u2019s the hero of justice (or something like that). Besides that, there are also some dialogues in this anime that I find weird and/or just simply wrong. And being an adaptation of a manga, the series\u2019 ending is rather inconclusive, since 1) the manga is not yet finished and, 2) the adaptation is only 13 episodes long, which is very short. What I find wrong about its ending is that it never left me wanting for more.\nWith that said, the anime isn\u2019t all bad points and no good points at all. Just as I said earlier, the way the story was presented in the beginning was great, with a certain number of people with superpowers (called Code:Breakers) are working for the government to eliminate (i.e.; kill) people that the government sees as evil. The character designs are also great, although the design for the Code:Breakers have varying touches of bishounen-ness in them.\nSo if you\u2019re looking for a groundbreaking new anime, this certainly is NOT it. Maybe if you haven\u2019t watched a lot of superpower-themed anime, you might enjoy this. Just \u201cmight\u201d, though.\nMestariYN (All reviews)\nWell, I came to this Anime like a \"Meeting-by-Chance\"! I've never heard of it, I had no idea about what's going on there and so on...\nAfter I finished watching it I must say, I did not waste my time with it! It's got a good visual quality, some nice characters (in my case I liked Ogami and Yuuki most) and nicely choreographed battle scenes.\nThe balance and the dynamic between Humor, Action and a little bit drama is done wonderfully and keeps the audiences attention, throughout the anime, \"upright\" ;)\nThe little problem tough is how this anime has been set out so far. I don't really like the ending. I mean, everything before was done very nicely and I did enjoy it - that's why my expectations grew over the time while I was watching C:B. But the end can be compared to a crash with another car - suddenly, unexpected, fast, ... finish...\nThey should have done at least 3 to 5 episodes more, just to give us a better end and more screen time for the remaining 3 code breakers.\nAnyway, I can recommend it to everyone because I believe it's worth watching \u00ect!\nZettai Karen Children: The Unlimited - Hyoubu Kyousuke5 Users\nPsycho-Pass3 Users\nGakuen Alice2 Users\nZombie-Loan1 User\nYumekui Merry1 User\nGetBackers1 User\nPoll: Code:Breaker Episode 12 Discussion\nStark700 - Dec 22, 2012 49 replies by Kuro_Yuuki \u00bb\u00bb\nPoll: Code:Breaker Episode 3 Discussion ( 1 2 3 )\nStark700 - Oct 20, 2012 102 replies by Kuro_Yuuki \u00bb\u00bb",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Adaptoys\u2019 Changes the Game for People Living with Paralysis\nSHORT HILLS, N.J., May 2, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ \u2014 The Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to improving quality of life for people living with paralysis, has announced the creation of Adaptoys \u2013 adapted versions of popular toys that allow people with physical disabilities to experience the joy of actively playing with their families.\n\u201cTechnology has been such a powerful force for individuals with disabilities. However, there is a void when it comes to technology and accessible toys,\u201d said Peter Wilderotter, President and CEO, Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation. \u201cAdaptoys will help eliminate inequality by reimagining playtime for parents, grandparents, siblings, uncles or aunts who are living with paralysis. We are excited to partner with 360i on this innovative campaign to ignite a global conversation and share these life-changing toys with more families.\u201d\nPlay is a universal connector\u2014it improves quality of life, connects people emotionally and wards off stress and depression. But for the one in 50 people who face some form of paralysis, these experiences are difficult, if not impossible, and that inability to fully interact and play with their family can be a challenging barrier. Adaptoys is bringing the power of play to the 5.6 million Americans living with paralysis by equipping toys with voice activation, motion sensors and sip-and-puff (SNP) assistive technology.\nAdvertising agency 360i partnered with technology company Axios to create the initial Adaptoys prototypes. A remote control car is powered by a headset equipped with a straw, into which users can exhale to cause the car to accelerate, or inhale to reverse. Motion sensors on the headset steer the car left or right based on the user\u2019s head movement. And a voice-controlled pitching machine throws a ball on the user\u2019s command, tossing pop-ups, groundballs and strikes.\nTo bring accessible toys to more families nationwide, the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, in partnership with 360i, has launched a crowdfunding campaign at Adaptoys.org to raise funds to support the research, development and cover production costs for at least 100 adapted remote control cars, which will be distributed to qualified recipients through a random lottery selection. The more successful the crowdfunding effort, the more toys will be produced and families will be reached.\nFormer Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand, who was paralyzed from the neck down during a highly publicized game in 2010, illustrates the impact these toys can have for individuals living with paralysis in a compelling film as he plays with his young nephews. Donna Lowich of New Jersey, also living with quadriplegia, is featured as well, playing with her granddaughters. The film was created by production company Tiny Giant and director Charlie Mysak, with support from Jim Rubino of Fluid Editorial.\n\u201cI have never let paralysis slow me down. However, I look at my nephews and it can be frustrating when they want to play ball and I can\u2019t join the fun,\u201d said Eric LeGrand. \u201cWith Adaptoys, I can fully participate with my family and create new memories with my nephews so that they never feel as though their \u2018Uncle E\u2019 is sidelined at playtime.\u201d\n\u201cAs a grandmother, you dream about playing with your grandchildren. But for people living with disabilities, playtime can be isolating and inaccessible. My granddaughter lit up when I was able to race cars with her,\u201d said Donna Lowich. \u201cAdaptoys will allow me to be part of her childhood in a more meaningful way and my only hope is that we can bring these accessible toys to many more families. Everyone deserves to play with their loved ones.\u201d\nFor more information and to help bring Adaptoys to life for more families, visit adaptoys.org.\nThe Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation is dedicated to curing spinal cord injury by funding innovative research and improving the quality of life for people living with paralysis through grants, information and advocacy.

        "raw_content": "December 29, 2016 Lisa Williams\nHello friends. Yes, you are on the right page. We are MILK + HONEY CANDLES and we have some wonderful news to share with you. We are evolving and at this very moment we are transitioning our brand into something so dear to our hearts & aligning our passion with a cause. Think of this transition as a beautiful butterfly's metamorphosis. Starting in November we will officially be NECTAR REPUBLIC.\nWhy the name change, you ask? As we have grown our small mom & pop business we encountered so many other businesses with the same name. This has caused some marketplace confusion, which is an inconvenience for you. Our growth is leading us closer to our dreams everyday. With each passing day a clearer vision of the future has materialized.\nWe love giving back. Mother Nature gives so much and we want to return the love by helping to SAVE THE BEES. As you can guess... this is where our name, Nectar Republic comes into play. We aren't just loving on the bees, we care about all the pollinators. For every sale Nectar Republic will donate 5% of our profits to \"Save the Bees\". Keep a look out for our products, everything will remain the same, just a new name. Know that we are still the same family owned business that prides itself in creating handmade soy candles that promote a healthy home while leaving a light ecological footprint. So there you have it, a little meaning behind the new name and what it says about the direction we are going in.\nSeptember 2, 2015 Lisa Williams\n\"Wichita Whole Foods connects with local vendors\" BY BRYAN HORWATH, The Wichita Eagle\nLike other entrepreneurs before her, Lisa Williams found the inspiration for her product after perceiving a hole in the marketplace.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t happy with the candles I was buying, so I started making my own five or six years ago,\u201d said Williams, a Wichita resident. \u201cI found out about the toxic chemicals that are in some candles, and I just wasn\u2019t happy with the overall quality I was getting,\u201d she said. \u201cI started making high-quality soy candles and eventually sold them online and in farmers markets.\u201d\nEnter Milk and Honey Candle Co., which began in 2012. Though customers can buy Williams\u2019 products off her website, she said the company might never have taken flight if not for a partnership with Whole Foods, which opened a Wichita location in September.\nToday, Williams\u2019 candles can be found in 16 retail locations in five states, including six Whole Foods Market stores.\n\u201cI created a brand,\u201d Williams said. \u201cBut I don\u2019t think it would have happened without my partnership with Whole Foods. \u2026 You have to go through a rigorous process to get your product into their stores, but it\u2019s worth it. \u201cJust being in the store, it\u2019s kind of like an invisible seal of approval for the product. Customers trust Whole Foods, and that trust falls on my product.\u201d\nWilliams is among about 40 local vendors represented on the shelves of the Wichita Whole Foods store at 13th and Webb, said Nicole Lane, a marketing specialist who works out of the Wichita store.\n\u201cWe are very happy to partner with our local vendors and farms,\u201d she said. \u201cThey are like family to us. Our suppliers share the same concerns and morals for social responsibility and the environment as we do.\n\u201cPlus, buying locally grown products bolsters local economies by putting that money back in the pockets of producers and growers,\u201d she said. \u201cWe always try to connect with local producers when we enter a new market.\u201d Whole Foods also offers low-interest loans to small producers for capital expenditures, Lane said.\nAnother hit at Whole Foods locations has been Michael McCoy\u2019s Real Deal Salsa. A Bel Aire resident and El Dorado native, McCoy said Whole Foods hasn\u2019t been able to keep the salsa on its shelves because of its popularity.\nLike Williams, McCoy \u2013 who also operates the Real Deal Cafe in El Dorado \u2013 is looking to take his product to the next level. McCoy, who also sells a line of Real Deal meat seasonings, has his products at Dillons locations in addition to Whole Foods.\n\u201cThe salsa does really well at Whole Foods,\u201d McCoy said. \u201cThere were a lot of hoops to jump through and paperwork to do just getting in, but it\u2019s been a great thing. I had no idea how to go about getting insurance as a vendor, which I needed, and the people with Whole Foods helped throughout that process.\u201d\nAfter tweaking his salsa recipe during the past several years \u2013 he found that adding salt is rarely a poor decision \u2013 McCoy, with the help and expertise of his wife, Jennifer, settled on a formula and now has his salsa made by co-packer Original Juan in Kansas City, Kan.\n\u201cI\u2019m in almost 60 grocery stores now,\u201d McCoy said. \u201c\u2026 I\u2019m glad it all worked out \u2013 it\u2019s been better than I could have imagined. \u201cI\u2019m actually thinking of selling the restaurant now, which I\u2019m not sure my wife is thrilled about, but I think we can take this to the next level. I\u2019d like to get into a retailer like Target or Costco.\u201d\n\u2018Amazing Suppliers\u2019\nAnother local vendor who has had success with Whole Foods is Andrew Gough of Reverie Coffee Roasters, who said he has been told his company\u2019s products have at times been among the best-selling coffee brands at the store.\n\u201cBuying local is important,\u201d Gough said. \u201cI can\u2019t thank Whole Foods enough for what they\u2019ve done in that regard in this community. I\u2019m glad they\u2019re here.\u201d\nBecause of its list of strict standards \u2013 Whole Foods does not sell products that feature artificial food coloring or have high-fructose corn syrup \u2013 the process might be more difficult for producers to get their products in the door, at least compared with some other retailers.\nStill, the consensus seems to be that the natural foods and products chain can offer potentially fruitful partnerships for entrepreneurs, especially for those attempting to get started.\n\u201cKansas has some amazing suppliers, and we\u2019re happy to have their products at our store,\u201d said Lane, the Whole Foods marketing specialist. \u201cAnywhere from 10 to 30 percent of the products on our shelves come from local producers, and we\u2019re proud of that.\u201d\nWhole Foods, founded in 1980, has more than 400 stores in North America and Europe. The store typically hosts local vendors on the second Saturday of every month for a taste fair where consumers can test products and speak with producers.\nSource: Article Link\nFeeling Squirrely? Try Nut-pourri!\nLately, I have been just memorized by these enormous fuzzy nuts that are falling out of the sky. Why are they so odd? Never have I seen anything quite like them before.\nThen yesterday, I got a wild hair up my you know what and did some good old fashion research. Come to find out that this is from a Burr Oak Tree. Thought maybe these nuts were abnormally large and alien-like because our tree got struck by lighting this summer.\nThere are over 52 different oak species in North America. The Burr Oak Tree produces the largest acorns in the oak family. You can identify the oak by it's leaf shape.\nYou can see the split in the bark from where the lighting struck. Only feet away from the house, the lighting blew out two televisions and the garage door. Welcome to Kansas.\nWashed up these bad boys and remove the cap of the acorn. Thought that they would make a beautiful arrangement on the table in a bowl for the fall season. Then an idea flashed in my mind, \"NUT-POURRI!\" I couldn't resist. After the acorns dried I soaked them in Cedarwood Amber oil and stored them in a tupperware container. After a day of soaking up the fragrant oil, I poured them into a decorative bowl and voila. They just smell so rich and woodsy. Nothing beats bringing the outdoors inside.\nWe are so lucky that the lighting strike didn't kill our oak tree. Guess we should mark this years acorn harvest as our \"lucky nuts.\"\nMy acorns bring all the squirrels to the yard. ;-)",

        "raw_content": "Queens Of The Stone Age's \"The Evil Has Landed\" Is a Vintage Rocker\nQueens of the Stone Age started their new album roll out back in June with a mysterious website that revealed either everything or nothing, depending on how much stock you put into the cryptic messages therein. Since then, we've learned a lot.\nWe now know that the album is called Villains, and it's coming out on August 25. We also got to hear \"The Way You Used To Do,\" a positively rocking new track from the album that's a promising sign of what's to come. Today, the band has provided another look at the upcoming album and shared the track \"The Evil Has Landed.\" Check it out:\nThe vintage-sounding track, stylistically, could feel right at home on a Led Zeppelin compilation. It has that open and propulsive classic sound and a lovely solo smack dab in the middle of the song, and it boasts production from Mark Ronson. The song premiered this morning on Zane Lowe's Apple Music Beats 1 radio show, and Homme said of the song:\n\"There\u2019s a bit of my early influence and it\u2019s just got a desert style. I always go back to the desert all the time. When I moved here [Los Angeles], I moved to the Valley because I was used to having a yard, and I thought, 'Well, if it goes down here, at least I know all of the back roads to get to home.' So I moved here basically as a doomsday prepper.\"\nCheck out the track above, and let us know in the comments below how pumped you are now for this exciting new record.\nFeatured image: Matador Records",

        "raw_content": "This is the second hypersonic contract to be awarded to Lockheed(Credit: US Air Force)\nThe US Air Force seems to be taking the threat of hypersonic missiles seriously, having just awarded Lockheed Martin a second contract worth up to US$480 million to develop a second prototype missile capable of flying at over five times the speed of sound. The Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW) is part of an effort to \"explore the art-of-the-possible\" with the goal of providing the Air Force with a hypersonic missile by 2021.\nHypersonic missiles have the potential of being as great a game changer on the battlefield of tomorrow as the introduction of supersonic jets were almost 75 years ago. If any major power could field a practical weapon system in large numbers, it would be able to literally fly past any air defense currently deployed to reach its target without opposition.\nThough there have been a number of claims by Russia and China that they have such a weapon, definite proof is still wanting, but there is a real arms race afoot as the USA, China, Russia, Germany, Britain, India, Australia, and even Indonesia conduct research into various aspects and problems of flying at Mach 5 (3,800 mph, 6,125 km/h) and above.\nThe US Air Force's latest contract is to provide the ARRW project with needed critical design review, test, and production readiness to fast track the development of a second prototype weapon on the heels of the Hypersonic Conventional Strike Weapon (HCSW), which Lockheed is also working on. This follows an agreement by the US Department of Defense, Missile Defense Agency, Air Force, Navy, and Army to cooperate on advancing hypersonic boost glide technology as quickly as possible.\n\"The Joint Team requires the right mix of agile capabilities to compete, deter and win across the spectrum of competition and conflict,\" says Air Force Chief of Staff General David L Goldfein. \"We must push the boundaries of technology and own the high ground in this era of great power competition and beyond.\"\nThe new contract allows Lockheed to start work on the ARRW prototype straight away, with the final terms to be sorted out within 180 days. The new project will draw on experience from the Air Force/DARPA partnership, though the Air Force says that ARRW is taking a different technical approach to HCSW.\n\"We are going to go fast and leverage the best technology available to get hypersonic capability to the warfighter as soon as possible,\" says Secretary of the Air Force Heather A. Wilson.\nThis is the second hypersonic contract to be awarded to Lockheed (Credit: US Air Force)",

It appears that there will be a week-long staggered launch, in order to get all the players in. It takes that much time so that the developers have a chance to ease their servers into it.\nThe Rockstar team published a lengthy news post in which we are offered more details. For example, the developers talked about how much they will keep the game in beta. They mentioned that they are willing to maintain Red Dead Redemption it there for as long as it is needed. That is because they want to make sure that they offer us the best possible version.\nWe are aiming to deliver a stable and fun experience while collecting as much crucial information and feedback as possible to help us continually improve Red Dead Online. As with any Beta period, we plan to take the time necessary throughout to make Red Dead Online a complete, fun and fully-functional experience, which may take several weeks or months as we continually work to fix bugs, improve systems and implement player feedback into current or future plans.\nRockstar also warned players that their Red Dead Online progress might not be permanent. Therefore, you\u2019d better not get too excited just yet.\nThe developers also assured us that they will continue to add new updates to the game. \u201cThe world of Red Dead Online will be a continually expanding experience. There will also be some additions and updates throughout the Beta period,\u201d they wrote. For example, this week players were able to set up their Camp, ride in a Posse with their friends. Numerous other activities are possible as well.

A man was not made to birth children, nurture and care for others the way a woman can. A woman was not made to stand guard over the family and provide shelter and protection the way a man can. But, God created us in His image, male and female He created us. As husbands and wives, we bear God\u2019s image in the unique roles He created for us. But, we are an incomplete picture of Him without the other spouse. Rather than belittle or be jealous of one another\u2019s roles, let us love one another as God intended and as He loves us.\nPaul tells us in Philippians to think of others more highly than ourselves. If every believer is to love others sacrificially, how much more husbands and wives! Jesus said the world would know we are His disciples by our love. Therefore, we must be humble and extend grace to one another. How can you give grace to a husband or wife who seems to make a science of angering or offending you? Well, how does God show us grace even though we are sinful and willfully disobey Him? By His power: \u201cGod shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us\u201d (Romans 5:8). The God who calls you to be like-minded with your spouse is the same one who will empower you to do so, helping you give grace to one another in difficult times.",

Then again, ask pretty much anyone who came of age in the Garden State and they\u2019ll tell you they feel blessed.\nPerhaps it\u2019s the diversity of our people, the grittiness of our cities and the comforts of our suburbs. Perhaps it\u2019s the quality of our schools and the talent they nurture. Perhaps it\u2019s the proximity to the Shore, the lakes, the mountains, and all the fun they invite.\nOver the years, New Jersey Monthly has interviewed an extraordinary array of homegrown celebrities\u2014actors and comedians, authors and poets, ballplayers and politicians. We\u2019ve always found them eager to wax nostalgic about their formative years here.\nFor this month\u2019s cover story, we collected many of our favorite quotes about Jersey childhood from past interviews and complemented them with fresh insights from some of our Jersey favorites. We hope their tales will trigger fond memories of your own.\nRead more Jersey Celebrities articles.",

        "raw_content": "December 13, 2016 Steve Holland News\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u0097 President-elect Donald Trump announced Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his choice for secretary of state Tuesday, praising him as a successful international dealmaker who leads a global operation.Tillerson\u2019s experience in diplomacy stems from making deals with foreign countries for Exxon, the world\u2019s largest energy company, although questions have been raised about the oil executive\u2019s relations with Russia.\u201dHe will be a forceful and clear-eyed advocate for America\u2019s vital national interests, and help reverse years of misguided foreign policies and actions that have weakened America\u2019s security and standing in the world,\u201d Trump said in a statement.Tillerson, who like Trump has never held public office, said he shared the president-elect\u2019s \u201cvision for restoring the credibility of the United States\u2019 foreign relations and advancing our country\u2019s national security.\u201dTrump picked Tillerson, 64, after the Texan was backed by several Republican establishment figures, including former Secretary of State James Baker, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, a senior transition official said.Rice and Gates both issued statements of support on Tuesday.Their support is seen as crucial to helping Tillerson get past a possibly contentious Senate confirmation battle likely to focus on his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin.Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker, who was also under consideration for the post, said in a statement that he would hold a nomination hearing in early January. He called Tillerson \u201ca very impressive individual\u201d with \u201can extraordinary working knowledge of the world.\u201dIn 2013, Putin bestowed a Russian state honor, the Order of Friendship, on Tillerson, citing his work \u201cstrengthening cooperation in the energy sector.\u201dTrump is confident that Tillerson can get past questions about his ties to Russia, the transition official said.\u201dHis relationships with leaders all over the world are second to none,\u201d Trump\u2019s statement said.Lawmakers from both major parties have raised questions about Tillerson and former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton, who has been mentioned as a possible No. 2 State Department official and who has voiced hawkish views on Iraq and Iran.Republicans and Democrats said they would ask Tillerson, who has met Putin several times, about his contacts with Russia. He won fresh praise from Moscow on Monday.Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), a leading foreign policy voice and the 2008 Republican candidate for president, told Reuters: \u201cI have concerns. It\u2019s very well known that he has a very close relationship with Vladimir Putin.\u201dThe business community welcomed Trump\u2019s choice of Tillerson.\u201dWe are pleased that Rex will bring a business perspective to the State Department,\u201d the National Association of Manufacturers said.BUSINESS INTERESTSWhile busily filling out his Cabinet, Trump is seeking to answer questions about how he will separate himself from his far-flung business empire before taking office on Jan. 20.He had planned a Thursday news conference to lay out the details but delayed it until Tuesday due to what aides said was the crush of picking people to serve in his administration.In a series of late-night tweets Monday, Trump said he would be leaving his business before Jan. 20 so he can focus full-time on the presidency and that he would leave sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump to manage it.He did not mention his daughter Ivanka, who has been a central player in his business affairs and who is said to be considering a move to Washington to help her father.\u201dNo new deals will be done during my term(s) in office,\u201d Trump said.He said he would hold a news conference \u201cin the near future to discuss the business, Cabinet picks and all other topics of interest. Busy times!\u201dMeanwhile, Trump has continued to build his administration.A source close to the transition said Trump had chosen former Texas Gov. Rick Perry as his nominee for energy secretary, with an announcement expected soon. Perry met Trump on Monday at Trump Tower in New York.In choosing Tillerson, Trump passed over 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who had famously criticized the president-elect during the campaign this year.\u201dIt was an honor to have been considered for secretary of state of our great country,\u201d Romney said in a Facebook posting on Monday night.\nRepublicans revamp Obamacare bill as Trump moves to promote overhaul\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u0097 President Donald Trump warned Republican lawmakers Tuesday that voters will remember if they do not approve a plan dismantle Obamacare, as pressure grew on the businessman-turned-politician to win the first major legislative [\u2026]\nMustang Museum headed to Concord\nMay 17, 2016 Josh Hyatt News\nCONCORD, N.C. \u0097 America\u2019s original pony car will finally get its own national museum dedicated to its heritage when The National Mustang Museum comes to Concord, N.C., where the museum is currently expected to open [\u2026]\nJones votes against two bills that add reporting requirements to regulatory agencies\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u0097 On Thursday, N.C.\u2019s Congressman Walter Jones was the only Republican to vote against two bills aimed at putting new reporting requirements on regulatory agencies. \u201cThese bills were designed to make it more [\u2026]",

It will be led by Gary Nelson, a circle dance instructor who has been with us on several occasions previously.\nCircle dance has grown out of the European traditional folk dance community thanks to a German dancer named Bernhard Wosien, who believed that many traditional dances were being lost to modern culture. He traveled through Western and Eastern Europe collecting and annotating an enormous repertoire of circle dances.\nSince the 1970s, the circle dance community has greatly expanded, and members have added to the repertoire through the years.The dances come from all parts of the world; some are traditional, some are new, and most of them represent a story. As the name implies, the dances are performed in a circle. Dancers hold hands and the circle moves as a unit.\nDances are performed to music from Greece, Israel, Scotland, Bulgaria, Russia, Romania, France, the Americas, and elsewhere. Some dances are energetic, others are meditative. All dances are taught first, so experience is not required. The circle dance steps are simple, so children and adults of all ages are welcome. You won\u2019t need a partner because everyone in the circle is your partner. Wear comfortable, loose clothing.\n\u2190 Church members celebrate North Shore Pride\nThis Sunday\u2019s service: \u201cFar from the Tree\u201d \u2192",

        "title": "(Almost) Everything That Was Revealed in the D23 Expo Disney Interactive Presentation | Disney Insider",
        "raw_content": "Yesterday was the third and final day of this year\u2019s D23 Expo. Not that you could tell. There were still huge crowds, celebrity-filled panels, and just as much excitement as the previous two days. And one of the bigger panels on an already overstuffed day was the Disney Interactive presentation, which included a number of sizable announcements, big reveals and the promise of very exciting things to come.\nMost of the news was Disney Infinity-related, but there was some other great stuff too. Here it is, in all its joystick-wielding glory.\nMarvel Comes to Disney Infinity 3.0\nThe Hulkbuster and Ultron figures have been connected to Disney Infinity\u2019s upcoming 3.0 iteration for some time now but it was thought that they would simply exist within the game\u2019s expanded, open-world Toy Box mode. (The last version of Disney Infinity had a huge emphasis on Marvel.) But at D23 Expo, a surprise announcement was made: Marvel Battlegrounds, a new Marvel-themed play set, would be coming to Disney Infinity 3.0 in the spring of 2016. It\u2019s going to be super. The new play set will bring four-player gameplay to the series for the first time (and will of course work with the two new characters). The footage screened at the panel featured Tony Stark\u2019s Hulkbuster beating up Spider-Man\u2019s nefarious foe, the Green Goblin.\nThe Stars of Star Wars: The Force Awakens Announce Their Figures\nAfter taking the stage with J.J. Abrams and Harrison Ford the previous day, John Boyega and Daisy Ridley, stars of the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens, surprised the panel and debuted their respective Disney Infinity figures. (There will also be a Star Wars: The Force Awakens play set \u2026 yes, this game going to be huge.) Boyega (who is a self-professed \u201cbig gamer\u201d) and Ridley looked thrilled to unveil the figures for their characters of Finn and Rey. Oh and the figures are amazing, by the way.\nPeter Pan and Others Announced\nEarlier last week, we were honored to be a judge at this year\u2019s Toy Box Summit, where Toy Box artists were tasked with creating a fully immersive, unique world overnight. (Video of this summit actually played during the panel.) A few days later, at the D23 Expo panel, it was announced which character those artists had voted into the next iteration of the game. And that character is \u2026 (dramatic pause continues) Peter Pan. Additionally, some new characters were announced for 3.0: Spot from November\u2019s Disney\u2022Pixar\u2019s The Good Dinosaur and Judy and Nick from Walt Disney Animation Studios\u2019 Zootopia, out next spring.\nMagic Band Powers\nThis is a minor note but one that we found to be infinitely cool: players who have a MagicBand (those magical room key/park ticket/payment option currently in use at Walt Disney World) can unlock a secret Disney Infinity 3.0 item: the Partners statue (of Walt and Mickey holding hands). Look for similar exclusive content for players on the Disney Cruise Line\u2019s special Disney Infinity space (starting in November). We love when something as intangible as a videogame is giving this physical, real world component and the MagicBand integration is just beyond awesome.\nBig Hero 6 in Kingdom Hearts\nAfter the recent announcement that Tangled would be a part of popular RPG Kingdom Hearts III, producer Roy Conli. \u201cThe story takes place after the events of the film, after Hiro and the gang have formed a heroic team,\u201d Conli said. What\u2019s really interesting is that the image featured on the giant, giant screen showed Baymax, the lovable, huggable healthcare robot turned superhero, in an all black suit, with the presenters noting that this was the original Baymax (the one left in the alternate dimension at the end of the film). This could be the rare videogame that has the opportunity to strengthen and intensify the mythology of the film it\u2019s based on. We can\u2019t see what they cook up. And in related Kingdom Hearts news, it turns out the Key Blade, the video game series\u2019 most recognizable weapon, is the Ultimate Unlock. Power discs were also passed out that allow the Mickey Mouse character to dress up in his Kingdom Hearts attire.\nIn Magic Kingdoms You Can Build Your Own Disney Theme Park\nNot everything at the Disney Interactive panel was platform-based, however. In addition to a heavy emphasis on Playmation (which we will be bringing to you in detail in the weeks ahead), there was also talk of Disney\u2019s mobile games. One of the more exciting mobile games coming out is Magic Kingdoms (in partnership with Gameloft). This is a game that lets you build your own Disney theme park, even though you are (probably) not a licensed Imagineer. The gameplay looks simple and highly addictive, with a narrative component that unfolds as you construct your dream park. Apparently the villains (including Maleficent) get wind of your new park and don\u2019t take too kindly. Eep.\nStar Wars Battlefront Visits Jakku (And Gets a Cool PS4 Special Edition)\nStar Wars Battlefront, which looks like a gripping and gritty battle game, is coming out this November. This is a game that will bring you into a number of iconic Star Wars conflicts. And at D23 Expo an additional battle was revealed: the Battle of Jakku, based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, will be available as a free download pack on December 8. If you pre-order the game, you\u2019ll get the download pack a week early and make all of your friends super jealous. But if you want to make them really jealous, you could pre-order the exclusive Star Wars Battlefront Playstation 4 bundle (with the Playstation 4 system). Not only is the system jaw-dropping to look at (the console itself has a graphic of Darth Vader and the remote is based on his blinky chest piece), but it also includes a deluxe version of Star Wars Battlefront and four classic Star Wars games available on the Playstation 4 for the first time (with enhanced graphics and Trophy support, of course). The idea of playing Super Star Wars, in high definition, is something that gives us serious nerd joy. (There\u2019s also a Disney Infinity 3.0 bundle that includes the same awesome system and retro games, the Rise Against the Empire play set, and the Playstation-exclusive Boba Fett figure.) This is packing some serious coolness.\nSo there you have it: most of what Disney Interactive brought to this year\u2019s D23 Expo. Thankfully, what they announced we will be playing for many months (and years) to come.\n10 Magical Panels You Must Attend At This Year\u2019s D23 Expo\nBehold!

        "title": "The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton",
        "raw_content": "The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton was no. 1 on my classic club list and a book I had wanted to read for a long time.\nSet in 1870\u2019s New York, it is the story of the upper class elite, specifically Newland Archer, his fianc\u00e9 \u2013 beautiful if slightly shallow \u2013 May, her cousin Ellen \u2013 who has just returned from Europe after (scandalously) leaving her husband \u2013 and their families and friends, the majority of whom are narrow-minded, judgemental and determined to live within a strict set of rules governing behaviour for their social circle.\nFrom the outset, this means an unwillingness to accept Ellen when she arrives back in New York \u2013 especially as she has made the mistake of wearing an unsuitable address for her first public appearance, causing a stir and much comment. Eager to help her cousin, May asks Newland to be nice to her, hoping others will then follow suit. Eager to help his fianc\u00e9, Archer goes one step further, announcing their engagement \u2013 tying his well-respected family to theirs in the eyes of the public.\nIt\u2019s only then that Archer starts to get to know Ellen. And like her. She is a free spirit, unwilling (unable it seems) to bend her will to the world around her. She follows her heart, has the strength of her convictions, and a love of life.. She is, in fact, a female version of everything Archer secretly wishes he was but finds he can\u2019t be. Because of this, he starts to question the decision to marry May, who lives life on the surface. She is a woman who is happy in their world and finds nothing in it she would like to change.\nTorn between his commitment to May and his growing love for Ellen, Archer struggles to do the right thing. The problem is does he do the right thing for himself or for his wife and family? As he fights against society\u2019s constraints, he doesn\u2019t seem to realise that those around him are aware of how he is feeling and are working to make sure he does what\u2019s right and proper (in their not so humble opinion).\nEventually, after much too-ing and fro-ing, Archer does what is expected not what he wants and the romantic in me was incredibly disappointed \u2013 in Archer, Ellen, and \u2013 unfortunately \u2013 the book, which I had started out really enjoying. I found the writing funny and sharp and Edith Wharton does a brilliant job sending up a buttoned-up world where appearances trump everything else, including logic. After a while though, I got a bit bored. The characters started to annoy me \u2013 I just wanted Archer to make a decision and stop faffing around. When he didn\u2019t I lost interest. The writing too, which had first amused me, started to wear a bit. It was all too clever and witty and seemed to lack anything deeper. I know I\u2019m probably in the minority with this \u2013 it did win a Pulitzer Prize for fiction after all \u2013 and I feel the need to say sorry for not liking it but it just wasn\u2019t for me. Sorry!\namerican literature, classics, classics club, women writers\n5 thoughts on \u201cThe Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton\u201d\nThat classic has been on my TBR for a while. I always feel guilty if I don\u2019t fall in love with a classic or one that has gotten a lot of praise. But everyone has their own opinion. \ud83d\ude42\nI do feel like I should be more enthusiastic. Still, what would the world be if we all liked the same books?\nWe can\u2019t all like the same things. But I have to say I loved this book.\nI think most people I know who\u2019ve read it do. Maybe I was expecting too much or something else from it?\nI love this book, but I can understand why others don\u2019t. \u2018The Custom of the Country\u2019 \u2013 which has a wonderfully infuriating heroine \u2013 is the book I\u2019d recommend if you\u2019re inclined to give Edith Wharton another chance.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Twas the Night Before Christmas | Clement Clarke Moore\nTwas the Night Before Christmas | Clement Clarke Moore\nDr. Clement C. Moore, who wrote the poem, never expected that he would be remembered by it. If he expected to be famous at all as a writer, he thought it would be because of the Hebrew Dictionary that he wrote.\nDr. Moore had children. He liked writing poetry for them even more than he liked writing a Hebrew Dictionary. He wrote a whole book of poems for them.\nOne year he wrote this poem, which we usually call \"Twas the Night before Christmas,\" to give to his children for a Christmas present. They read it just after they had hung up their stockings before one of the big fireplaces in their house. Afterward, they learned it, and sometimes recited it, just as other children learn it and recite it now.\nIt was printed in a newspaper. Then a magazine printed it, and after a time it was printed in the school readers. Later it was printed by itself, with pictures. Then it was translated into German, French, and many other languages. It was even made into \"Braille\"; which is the raised printing that blind children read with their fingers. But never has it been given to us in so attractive a form as in this book. It has happened that almost all the children in the world know this poem. How few of them know any Hebrew!\nEvery Christmas Eve the young men studying to be ministers at the General Theological Seminary, New York City, put a holly wreath around Dr. Moore's picture, which is on the wall of their dining-room. Why? Because he gave the ground on which the General Theological Seminary stands? Because he wrote a Hebrew Dictionary? No. They do it because he was the author of \"A Visit from St. Nicholas.\"\nMost of the children probably know the words of the poem. They are old. But the pictures that Miss Jessie Willcox Smith has painted for this edition of it are new. All the children, probably, have seen other pictures painted by Miss Smith, showing children at other seasons of the year. How much they will enjoy looking at these pictures, showing children on that night that all children like best,\u0097Christmas Eve!\nMovie adaptations of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas\nTwas the Night Before Christmas | A Visit from St. Nicholas\nTwas the Night Before Christmas | A Visit from St. Nicholas \u203a",

        "title": "Garmin inReach Explorer+ Review | Pick A Bow",
        "raw_content": "It includes navigation - from waypoints to routes\nProbably the best thing about the Garmin inReach Explorer+ is that it can get you out of a nasty situation. For example, if you were to find yourself stranded in the middle of the woods, at night, without any resources and without any bullets or arrows left to defend yourself from predators, you could simply use the communicator to get in touch with a search and rescue center. In short, this product can actually save lives in certain situations.\nAs is the case with many multi-purpose devices, the inReach Explorer+ might fail to impress seasoned hunters because it doesn\u2019t come with the same functionalities as a GPS made specifically for this application. However, it does include a variety of routes, waypoints, and you can set your breadcrumb trail to get back home safely if you\u2019re feeling unsure about your surroundings.\nBesides, compared to another model designed by Garmin, the inreach SE+, this one includes weather info, preloaded topographic maps, as well as a barometric altimeter, accelerometer, and a compass. Therefore, the likelihood of you not finding your way when you\u2019re in the wild is very slim.\nThe display of this navigator and communicator is sizeable enough to be used even by people who do not feel comfortable utilizing smaller sized devices. It is backlit, which is a benefit in itself, since you will be able to see and interpret the information displayed both when the sun is shining brightly in the sky and at night.\nOne of the areas where this device really shines is communication. With the 100% global Iridium satellite coverage boasted by this product, you are able to benefit from two-way text messaging. However, we\u2019d like to note that based on some reviews that we have gone through, it seems that this model works similarly to an early-2000 cell phone when it comes to texting. Fortunately, predictable text is available and it can help you out a lot.\nIf you\u2019re really in trouble and you\u2019re looking to get in touch with someone so that you\u2019re rescued, you can use the inReach Explorer+ to send out an SOS message to a 24/7 search and rescue center. That definitely comes in handy under a variety of circumstances, doesn\u2019t it? And even if you do not need this functionality, it still gives you the reassurance you might need.\nTracking and sharing\nThanks to the Explorer+ communicator, you can let your friends and family members know where you are. Your buddies can track your progress on their mobile devices or computers, using the MapShare portal. At preselected time intervals, this device can send them waypoints so that your progress and location are viewable to your followers.\nAnother aspect you might want to know about is that you can use a free mobile app with this communicator to download maps and NOAA charts, for example. It\u2019s called Earthmate and it is available for download for both iOS and Android devices. Use it to access weather info, but also color aerial imagery.\nWe took the time and analyzed some of the feedback gathered by this unit in the past to see whether it is user-friendly or not. Based on what we found and considering that it is a handheld navigator and communicator, you will have no trouble getting the most out of its features. It\u2019s light and convenient, and it weighs in at just 0.5 lbs. Also, the screen is slightly smaller than that of similar devices such as the GPSMAP 64st, for example, which measures 2.6 inches. That of the inReach Explorer+ measures just 2.3 inches.\nApparently, this device is capable of charging reasonably fast and it can provide you with more than enough hours of use. If you intend to go on a multi-day hunting trip, however, we would recommend bringing an extra power source along so that you can charge the battery. It\u2019s better to be safe than sorry.\nCompared to several other communicators available for sale right now, the inReach Explorer+ actually offers the benefits of good performance. It is reliable and it comes with an auto tracking capability. The text messaging available from anywhere is a feature that will help put your friends\u2019 and family members\u2019 minds at ease. You can, of course, also use it for situations when you are not in danger, which obviously makes it have great value for the money. Lightweight, easy to use, and with a great battery life, this unit seems like it\u2019s worth giving a shot.",

        "raw_content": "Aims of the trial\nHenna Lemetyinen1Email authorView ORCID ID profile,\nJuliana Onwumere2, 3,\nRichard James Drake1, 4,\nKathryn Abel1, 4,\nCarol Haigh5,\nGeorgina Moulton6 and\nDawn Edge1\nA higher proportion of African-Caribbean people in the UK are diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorders than other ethnic groups. High levels of shame and stigma at individual and community levels contribute to delayed access to care, potentially increasing the duration of untreated psychosis and so worsening outcomes. Inferior access, more coercive care, and worse outcomes have created a \u2018circle of fear\u2019 of mental health services within African-Caribbean communities. This further discourages early engagement with statutory services and increases the burden of care for families living with schizophrenia.\nProviding tailored and relevant information about psychosis (psychoeducation) has the potential for improving outcomes for patients and families. However, there are no culturally appropriate psychoeducation programmes for African-Caribbeans in the UK. We aim to determine whether an e-learning resource, co-produced with African-Caribbean stakeholders to improve knowledge about psychoses, would be culturally acceptable and accessible to members of this population.\nA pilot randomised controlled trial of the feasibility of co-producing and testing a novel e-learning resource to improve knowledge about and attitudes towards schizophrenia in African-Caribbean families. We will seek to recruit 40 participants, aged \u2265\u200916\u2009years, either to receive the intervention or as controls. They will self-refer or be referred via inpatient and wellbeing services, family and carers\u2019 forums, statutory community mental health teams, and voluntary sector/non-governmental agencies (NGOs). Participants will complete the Ca-KAP, ASMI, and SF-12. Acceptability will be explored qualitatively via focus groups and individual semi-structured interviews.\nThe proposed trial will demonstrate the feasibility of conducting a fully powered RCT to evaluate the efficacy of an e-learning resource about schizophrenia with African-Caribbean families. Qualitative work will explore the intervention\u2019s accessibility and barriers/facilitators to participation, including attitudes to randomisation. These data will facilitate further refinement of the intervention.\nISRCTN11394005, retrospectively registered 20/03/2018.\nAfrican-Caribbeans living in the UK experience significantly higher rates of diagnosis with schizophrenia spectrum disorders [1] coupled with inequalities in accessing psychological interventions despite initiatives to address these issues [2\u20134]. \u2018A circle of fear\u2019 comprising delayed access to care, involuntary detention, coercive treatment, and poor outcomes has been repeatedly observed in African-Caribbean communities [5\u20137].\nDelayed access to diagnosis and treatment can increase the duration of untreated illness, severity, and chronicity of symptoms, family tensions, and negative perceptions of the burden of care [8, 9]. Escalating family hostility, often resulting in police involvement, increases patients\u2019 risk of estrangement from their families, social isolation, relapse, and rehospitalisation [5]. Evidence suggests that community-based education programmes could be effective in improving access and engagement in the African-Caribbean population [10, 11] who continue to be perceived by services as high risk and \u2018hard-to-reach\u2019 despite evidence to the contrary ([6]). Even upon accessing treatment, relatives and carers continue to feel disengaged from services [12], as psychoeducation is not routinely offered in UK community mental health services [13].\nThe UK\u2019s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines for schizophrenia management (2014) recommend the combination of medication with psychological therapy, such as family intervention [14]. The guidelines specifically recommend that psychoeducation is offered to carers of people diagnosed with schizophrenia [14]. Research shows that negative attitudes and stigma in the wider community, as well as within service users\u2019 home environment, can negatively affect recovery [15], suggesting a need to make psychoeducation available to extended family and community members.\nPrevious studies of psychoeducation for schizophrenia and psychosis have been conducted with predominantly White European and American samples [16\u201322]. There have been some attempts to implement psychoeducation programmes in East Asian cultures with encouraging results. A Malaysian psychoeducation programme targeted caregivers of persons with schizophrenia and was reported to reduce the burden of care and improve caregivers\u2019 knowledge of the illness, whilst improving relapse and hospital readmission rates for patients [23]. Several family psychoeducation trials from China have also reported improved outcomes for families, carers, and service users [24\u201326]. A psychoeducation programme delivered to Japanese families and caregivers improved their depressed mood, anxiety, and relationship with the service user [27]. However, there is little published evidence about the application of family educational interventions in ethnic minorities in the UK [14] taking account of local cultures and environments in which families live. Moreover, there are currently no evidence-based and/or user-informed culturally appropriate learning resources specifically aimed at African-Caribbean families with schizophrenia. This is a critical omission given the elevated risk within the UK\u2019s African-Caribbean population [1, 28], inferior clinical outcomes, and poor service experience including lack of access to psychological care [4]. NICE Schizophrenia Guidance acknowledges deficiencies in the provision of family and culturally adapted resources and the need to work with African-Caribbean stakeholders to develop culturally-appropriate interventions [14].\nA modern solution to improving access to health interventions is to make them scalable using the digital space. Health technology (i.e. e-health, m-health, tele-health), including websites, mobile applications (apps), and teleconferencing, is now acknowledged as a key element in NHS innovation, providing a wide range of information and support to individuals with mental illness and their families [29\u201331]. The potential for e-health to challenge inequalities in mental healthcare for marginalised populations lies in part in its ubiquity [32], enabling scalable, low cost, and timely access to information, support, and care across geographical areas through internet access [33].\nThe aim of the study is to test the feasibility of implementing and evaluating a non-commercial e-learning resource among African-Caribbean families with schizophrenia family members in order to improve their knowledge and attitudes about the illness and about psychosis in general. The feasibility of recruitment, data collection, retention, and views on the intervention\u2019s acceptability will inform a larger-scale RCT. This feasibility pilot has three primary outcomes:\nRecruitment of relatives and carers of people with schizophrenia\nParticipant attrition\nSecondary outcomes include:\nImproved knowledge about schizophrenia and psychosis\nImproved attitudes about schizophrenia and psychosis\nThe study is a parallel, two-arm feasibility RCT examining relatives\u2019 and carers\u2019 knowledge and attitudes about schizophrenia at three time-points: pre-intervention, post-intervention, and 3-month follow-up.\nThe intervention will not be tested against a comparator. Instead, participants in the control arm will be administered the standardised measures without accessing a learning resource about schizophrenia. They will be provided access to the learning resource upon the completion of data collection (Fig. 1).\nCONSORT diagram illustrating the pilot RCT procedure\nIn addition, focus groups and one-to-one interviews will explore the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention. This qualitative work will afford opportunities for stakeholders to provide detailed feedback on the content, design, functionality, and cultural appropriateness of the intervention, which are unlikely to be captured by standardised measures.\nWe shall recruit 40 relatives and carers of African-Caribbean persons diagnosed with schizophrenia or other non-affective psychosis (DSM-V schizophrenia or ICD-10\u2009F20-29: schizophreniform disorder, schizoaffective disorder, delusional disorder, or psychosis not otherwise specified). The sample size is based on previous community psychoeducation studies that report equivalent or smaller sample sizes as appropriate for assessing the feasibility of novel psychoeducation interventions [11, 34\u201336]. Recruitment will be facilitated by support from relevant organisations, such as the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR\u2019s) Clinical Research Network (CRN), African and Caribbean Mental Health Services (a non-governmental organisation (NGO)), community centres, and patient and carer advocacy and support services. We shall raise awareness of the study in African-Caribbean communities via community engagement events, newspapers and radio, and social media.\nParticipants must be either related to and/or informally care for a person of African-Caribbean heritage with a diagnosis of schizophrenia spectrum disorders (F20-29). Participants are not required to be primary carers, as improving attitudes might yield positive gains even when accessed by wider community, e.g. extended family [15]\nAcknowledging ethnic diversity within families, participants need not be African-Caribbean themselves. For example, a White British parent of a child of Mixed White and African-Caribbean heritage is eligible to take part\nMinimum of 16 years of age prior to obtaining consent. There is no upper age limit\nSufficient fluency in English to enable engagement with the intervention (currently only available in English) and completion of measures\nAbility to provide written, informed consent\nIndividuals involved in contributing to the development of the resource (e.g. participated in consultation and feedback events on content and usability) will be excluded from the trial as such involvement might have increased their knowledge about schizophrenia and psychosis and/or generated more positive attitudes to mental illness and resource.\nPersons under the age of 16 or persons who are not family members or informal carers will be excluded from the trial.\nPersons diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorders or other forms of psychoses will be excluded as the intervention is designed for families and carers versus service users.\nThe intervention is a web-based e-learning resource to improve knowledge about schizophrenia and related psychoses among the families and carers of African-Caribbean service users with these diagnoses. Adopting a Community-Partnered Participatory Research (CPPR) approach [37, 38], resource development was informed by qualitative data collection via five focus groups with African-Caribbean stakeholders. Patient and public involvement (PPI) has been an increasing priority for health research in the UK. The government-funded National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) founded INVOLVE (http://invo.org.uk) to promote and support PPI in health research delivery. INVOLVE describes public involvement as \u201cresearch activity conducted \u2018with\u2019 or \u2018by\u2019 members of the public, as opposed to \u2018for\u2019 or \u2018about\u2019 them\u201d. The reasons for greater PPI involvement are manifold, including for example social justice and democratisation\u2014those affected by research (the public) should have a right to provide input. Additionally, increasing research relevance and PPI improves research quality by providing involvement opportunities for members of the public as \u2018experts by experience\u2019 [39].\nThe aim of the focus groups was to inform the content, appearance, functionality, design, and delivery of the resource. This was achieved by facilitated discussions on the above topics using a semi-structured topic guide and related activities, such as watching short video clips, reading and discussing blog posts, and reviewing already available mental health resources. Focus groups comprised the following stakeholders:\nPersons with schizophrenia spectrum disorder diagnoses (n\u2009=\u20097)\nRelatives and carers (n\u2009=\u20096)\nLay community members (n\u2009=\u20097)\nYoung (\\( \\overline{x} \\)\u2009=\u200925\u2009years) mixed group (consisting of relatives and community members) (n\u2009=\u20096)\nDesign focus group (consisting of relatives, carers, and community members) (n\u2009=\u20098)\nStakeholders were recruited by advertising via community groups and institutions (such as Black Majority Churches, local charities, and other third sector organisations), public spaces (e.g. libraries and notice boards in local businesses), black and minority ethnicity (BME) networks, and local universities.\nOur findings showed that the stakeholders prioritised information about symptoms and treatments. They also emphasised the importance of the resource being interactive to keep end-users engaged without compromising usability for any user groups, including older adults or those with lower IT literacy. Stakeholders emphasised the need for positive personal stories or case studies to counteract negative stereotypes of service users and families affected by schizophrenia and psychosis. In particular, the \u2018young mixed group\u2019 advocated for stories that would aim to illustrate schizophrenia and mental healthcare from a number of different perspectives, including those of the service user, various family members, and mental health professionals.\nThe e-learning resource, called Culturally appropriate Schizophrenia Psychological Education Resource (CaSPER), consists of thirteen fact-based topics on psychosis such as \u201cSchizophrenia and Black Caribbean people in the UK\u201d, \u201cSymptoms\u201d, \u201cFamily and relationships\u201d, and \u201cRecovery and illness management\u201d. The topics originate from the focus groups and previous community work to identify African-Caribbean community members\u2019 mental health needs and research priorities [38], which highlighted the need for more culturally appropriate information about schizophrenia.\nCaSPER features nine fictitious stories, illustrating key elements of the factual information from key stakeholder perspectives, namely service users, family members, the police, and healthcare professionals. The stories feature an African-Caribbean family of three. As a young woman, \u2018Jenny\u2019 (who is married to \u2018Michael\u2019) was diagnosed with schizophrenia and admitted to hospital under a section of the Mental Health Act, a legislation that is effective in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland only (Scotland has its own devolved system). At the end of her story, \u2018Jenny\u2019 talks about her recovery journey, including how making changes in her life is helping her stay well. More recently, her 20-year-old son \u2018Paul\u2019 experienced a first episode of psychosis. His story outlines his care pathway via an Early Intervention Service (EIS). The aim of the story is to provide information about different parts of mainstream mental health services in clear, accessible formats as African-Caribbeans have indicated that lack of such information contributes to fear of services and delayed engagement [38]. The family\u2019s story also illustrates different care pathways: Jenny\u2019s coercive pathway, which typifies that of many African-Caribbean services users [40\u201342] contrasts with the more positive model of her son\u2019s story of help-seeking and receiving care in the early stages of the illness.\nAdditionally, the resource includes an exhaustive list of local services for service user and carers and a glossary of key terminology as members of this community have indicated that access to this information might facilitate engagement, access, and advocacy [38]. The resource also contains short, informal multiple-choice quizzes on most topics to create an interactive e-learning environment.\nIn response to stakeholders involved in the co-production process, the resource will be available in both online and DVD formats to increase accessibility particularly among resource-users with limited IT access and/or low IT literacy. The DVD version is delivered as a \u2018blended learning\u2019 package with a booklet containing supporting information that cannot be delivered on a DVD, such as the multiple-choice quizzes. All factual content and the fictitious stories are available as audio recordings and as text to improve accessibility. The online version of the e-learning resource was designed to be accessible on a number of electronic devices, including a computer, a tablet, and/or a smartphone.\nThe intervention\u2019s usability was informed by previous research, particularly that of Rotondi and colleagues (2005, 2010, 2017). They produced and tested a web-based e-learning schizophrenia learning resource to educate service users and their families. They identified a number of design features that improve website accessibility, such as flat design (everything being accessible via a few mouse clicks as possible), minimising display distractions (e.g. decorative images) and reading ease (using lay-friendly vocabulary and grammar). These features were incorporated into intervention development as they were congruent with focus group feedback.\nThe primary objectives will be:\nTo test the feasibility of recruiting relatives and carers in the community and via relevant services, such as community mental health teams, home treatment teams, early intervention services, and support groups for carers\nTo compare recruitment, uptake, and retention in both arms of the study\nTo test and compare attrition in both arms of the study\nWe shall also collect demographic data, such as date of birth, country of birth, ethnicity, and employment status at baseline.\nSecondary objectives will be to collect data on (i) improved knowledge of schizophrenia, (ii) improved attitude towards mental illness (iii) quality of life, and (iv) qualitative reporting of acceptability of the intervention.\nThey will be examined using the following outcome measures:\nCulturally adapted Knowledge About Psychosis (Ca-KAP) questionnaire\nCa-KAP was developed specifically to assess knowledge and understanding of schizophrenia in the African-Caribbean population [43]. The Ca-KAP is based on a standardised instrument, Knowledge About Schizophrenia Interview (KASI) which has been shown to be successful at measuring families\u2019 understanding of schizophrenia [44\u201346]. However, KASI was validated using a White British sample and has not been extensively used with African-Caribbean families. Additionally, the language was outmoded and the content did not readily allow for alternative models of mental illness. These were addressed during the cultural adaptation process. The resulting Ca-KAP consists of the following seven subscales: diagnosis, symptoms, and problems relating to psychosis, cause, medication, other treatments and services, course and outcome, and management. The themes of the Ca-KAP overlap with the content of the intervention (e.g. symptoms, medication, and treatments).\nAttitudes to severe mental illness scale\nAttitudes to Severe Mental Illness Scale (ASMI) is a validated assessment [47] which draws from a number of older standardised measures of attitudes to mental illness, such as the Opinion on Mental Illness (OMI) Scale and Community Attitudes to Mental Illness (CAMI). ASMI was selected by stakeholders in phase 2 focus groups as the most acceptable attitudes measure out of five assessments. The stakeholders liked the relatively short length of this 30-item questionnaire. They also found the wordings of the items accessible. ASMI consist of four subscales (stereotyping, optimism, coping, and understanding) comprising 30 statements about people with mental illness, such as \u201cPeople with severe mental illness are failures\u201d, \u201cA person with severe mental illness can be trained in an occupation\u201d, and \u201cThe friends should not abandon a person when he/she is suffering from severe mental illness\u201d. Respondents are asked to rate their degree of agreement/disagreement with each statement on a Likert scale with scoring as follows: \u201cagree\u201d (4), \u201crather agree\u201d (3), \u201crather disagree\u201d (2), \u201cdisagree\u201d (1), to \u201cdo not know\u201d (0). Negatively worded items are reverse scored. A high total score reflects a positive attitude towards persons with mental illness.\nSF-12 version 2\nAdopted from SF-36 [48], SF-12 v2 is a practical, reliable, and valid self-reported measure of functional health 12 questions to and well-being. It is widely used to monitor population health, analyse disease burden, and predict costs and is particularly useful at the community level as it can be completed in 2\u20133\u2009min. A preference-based utility index (SF-6D) has been developed from the SF-12 to facilitate economic evaluation and estimate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). This will be important for future studies. However, in this study, we shall examine scores before and after and at the 3-month follow-up to provide preliminary data on whether using the learning resource has improved relatives\u2019/carers\u2019 health.\nParticipants accessing the intervention online will be provided a choice between completing electronic versions or hard copies of the measures. Participants using the DVD version will complete hard copies of the measures. The control group will complete the same measures at the same time points. However, they will access the intervention only after the collection of time point 3 outcome data. Participants will be informed of this procedure prior to collecting consent.\nData will be collected in both intervention and control groups at three time points (see Fig. 2):\nSPIRIT figure of the study procedures\nPre-intervention(baseline assessment)\nBasic demographic details and quantitative outcome measures will be completed either online, using a hard copy, or in a meeting with a research assistant. Participants in the intervention arm will select whether to access the resource via online e-learning or the DVD and booklet format.\nWithin 2 weeks after completion, participants in both arms will be invited to complete the quantitative outcome measures. We shall also collect qualitative acceptability data using one-to-one semi-structured interviews with intervention group participants.\nThree-month follow-up: outcome\nThere are two components to this phase. First, all participants will be tested on the outcome measures. Next, we shall collect qualitative feasibility data with 15 participants. A purposefully selected sample of participants from the intervention arm (n\u2009=\u200910) will explore in detail their views about the resource\u2019s accessibility, perceived usefulness, and impact on attitudes and beliefs about schizophrenia. We shall also explore their views about the outcome measures, feasibility of data collection, and participation in the study more generally. Qualitative interviews with members of the control group (n\u2009=\u20095) will enable us to gather data on their perceptions and experience of recruitment and randomisation and their views on factors that influence recruitment and retention among control group members. A subsample of 15 participants was considered appropriate for this phase of the study to minimise participant burden (i.e. not inviting everyone to take part) but still allowing us to explore the feasibility of the pilot itself. We shall develop a sampling frame based on participants\u2019 demographics to ensure a maximum variation sample in respect of key criteria such as age, prior knowledge of schizophrenia, and gender. A topic guide will be developed to facilitate this component of the study based on issues that emerge at time-points 1 and 2 and the available literature.\nParticipants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention or control group of equal size (20 in each arm), using the web-based randomisation service (http://www.sealedenvelope.com). Group assignment will be recorded in a database, and the result of each randomisation emailed to the trial administrator.\nBefore consenting to participation in the study, respondents will be informed that there is a 50/50% probability of being assigned either to the intervention or control arms. This is to ensure that participants understand the study design and the fact that, although everyone will eventually be able to access the intervention, those in the control arm will not be able to do so straight away. Instead, control arm participants will be informed that they will be given access after completing a three-month follow-up.\nDemographic data will be analysed using basic descriptive statistics. Recruitment and retention rates into both arms will be calculated. We shall examine univariate associations of the outcome measures, using parametric or non-parametric tests as appropriate. We shall conduct exploratory tests of change during the course of the intervention using paired measures, such as the Wilcoxon paired-samples test or a t test, as appropriate according to the data.\nQualitative data on acceptability of the intervention will be collected via semi-structured interviews using a specially developed interview schedule (available on request). The schedule comprises 13 questions about participants\u2019 experiences of using the intervention, covering usability, appearance, content, interactive features, and the extent the intervention meets the needs of African-Caribbean families affected by schizophrenia.\nInterviews will be digitally recorded with participants\u2019 consent, transcribed with full anonymisation and checked for accuracy. Data will be explored using framework analysis [49]. Both a priori and emergent themes will also be included in the analysis. Framework analysis is particularly suitable for these data as it enables the analysis of responses to each question in the interview guide (a priori themes) with added flexibility of any arising (a posteriori) topics. NVivo (version 11) will be used to support data management and analysis. Coding and analysis will be lead and conducted by the Research Project Manager (RPM) with input from the senior author, a qualitative and mixed methods specialist.\nParticipants will be able to choose to have their data collected online, on the phone, or by arranging a home visit with a researcher. Thus, we shall collect and store electronic and hard copy data. Electronic data will be securely captured and stored by Select Survey (selectsurvey.net) on a university-based server for confidential questionnaire data. Paper copies of data, including questionnaires and participant contact details, will be stored securely in a locked filing cabinet on university premises, in compliance with General Data Protection Regulation 2018. Electronic backup copies of data are password-protected. All team members accessing confidential data have completed Good Clinical Practice training.\nThis pilot trial is unique in evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, culturally-appropriate e-learning intervention to improve knowledge and attitudes about schizophrenia and psychosis in African-Caribbean families. According to the authors\u2019 knowledge, it is also the only psychoeducation intervention for schizophrenia spectrum disorders that has been co-produced with African-Caribbean stakeholders. This pilot trial will examine the feasibility of recruiting and retaining participants from an ethnic group most likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and among the least likely to receive psychoeducation. To inform further development of the intervention and a larger, fully-powered trial of its cost and clinical-effectiveness, we shall also assess the feasibility of collecting relevant outcome data. Importantly, for a community that regards itself as being \u2018seldom heard\u2019 versus \u2018hard-to-reach\u2019 [50] as commonly reported, we shall also evaluate African-Caribbean families\u2019 perspectives on the intervention acceptability, accessibility, and utility.\nPotential strengths of the study\nA significant strength of the study is that the development of the tested intervention was informed by key African-Caribbean stakeholders, including service users diagnosed with schizophrenia, their relatives and carers, and members of the wider community. This enabled the identification of relevant and culturally appropriate content such as acknowledging cultural differences in social norms. For example, \u2018lack of eye contact\u2019 is considered as a negative symptom of schizophrenia, whereas many African-Caribbeans would consider looking someone in the eye rude. This enhanced decision-making about the \u2018look and feel\u2019 of the intervention (its design and appearance) thereby increasing the likelihood of its acceptability to potential study participants. In addition to co-producing the intervention, stakeholders contributed to selecting the standardised outcome measures to ensure evaluation of issues that they considered most important such as improving attitudes to mental illness (the ASMI scale [47]).\nAdditionally, the accessibility of the intervention has been optimised by providing the content as text and audio recordings for end-users with either low literacy or for those who prefer listening instead of reading. To our knowledge, there are no other schizophrenia and psychosis information websites that offer users a choice between reading and listening to the same content. This is important to maximise the intervention\u2019s accessibility and acceptability to most end-user groups, as highlighted by our phase 2 focus groups. We further increased accessibility by making the website compatible for access via computers, tablets, and smartphones, as well as by producing a DVD version for end-users without internet access.\nPotential challenges of the study\nBased on previous research (Ref), we anticipate that participant recruitment will be challenging. Potential barriers to recruitment may arise from the fact that we are recruiting a sample consisting of a \u2018minority within a minority\u2019. This means that potential participants are members of not only an ethnic minority, but a minority of families affected by schizophrenia and psychosis who are also willing to engage in a trial, in contrast to previous reports of lack of recruitment of BME community members [51, 52]. Even though the incidence of schizophrenia and psychosis is elevated in the African-Caribbean community, evidence suggests that eligible participants, i.e. relatives and carers, are more likely to be \u2018hidden\u2019 in Black and Ethnic Minority communities [53, 54]. Furthermore, it is known that the uptake of NHS and social care-based service user and carer forums is low within this group. The difficulties services have engaging this group may limit the potential to recruit through them. Less is also known about what proportion of relatives and carers of persons with schizophrenia access support and wellbeing services within their communities.\nThe study design also has some limitations. The study in its current form is aimed at relatives and carers with family members diagnosed with schizophrenia/psychosis who have had some contact with mental health services. To address wider issues related to delayed access to care in the UK African-Caribbean population, the resource should be piloted with families who have not accessed services. This would provide insight into the intervention\u2019s potential to impact help-seeking and care pathways in this group. We recommend future research to test CaSPER and other community-level, co-produced interventions with participants who do not yet have diagnoses, principally those experiencing first episode of psychosis and/or within Early Intervention Services.\nASMI:\nCa-KAP:\nCulturally adapted Knowledge About Psychosis questionnaire\nCommunity Attitudes to Mental Illness Scale\nCulturally appropriate Schizophrenia Psychological Education Resource\nCPPR:\nCommunity-Partnered Participatory Research\nNon-governmental agency\nOMI:\nOpinion on Mental Illness Scale\nWe would like to acknowledge the NIHR Research for Patient Benefit Programme for funding the study and the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust for the support with research design and delivery.\nThis article presents independent research funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) under its Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) Programme (PB-PG-0212-27109).

What exactly is the difference between Webmail and a common e-mail client?\nA webmail app lets you send out and receive messages via a web browser without having to set up an email address in a program such as Outlook or Thunderbird. When you take a trip, for instance, you can check your emails from an Internet caf\u00e9 and you will not need to download, install or configure anything at all. Webmail apps are advanced enough to present you with a number of options such as using an address book or making folders that will later come in your e mail app. As a webmail software works with the messages within the server, it is important that you employ the IMAP protocol if you configure an e-mail account on your desktop. You can still use webmail if you pick POP, but old messages will not be available due to the fact that they will have been downloaded on the PC. You can take advantage of webmail provided that there is any email set up in your website hosting account and using an email app before being able to use webmail is not a requirement, so you're able to control your electronic communication completely from a browser.\nWe provide an advanced webmail application with each and every cloud website hosting package we offer. The software is known as Roundcube and it has a lots of features, so even if you do have no email program installed on your personal computer, you can use Roundcube as a fully functional e-mail client. With a few clicks, it will be possible to check your email, make an address book, adjust the time zone, configure distinctive identities or HTML signatures, and much more. You are able to access Roundcube by clicking on any email address in your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel or by typing a URL within your web browser and entering your email address and the related password. You can also make a custom made URL with Hepsia, so if the mail boxes that you create will be used by an institution, for instance, your staff is able to access their e mail while using the company domain.",

This new face is none other than the gorgeous former Miss India International (2014) Jhataleka Malhotra. Well, seems like this one will introduce yet another two new faces in the industry.\nThe leading daily quoted a source, close to Taranveer Singh, as saying, \u201cAnmol\u2019s character is called Varun, while Jhataleka plays Sia. Reem Sheikh features as Tanya and Ibrahim Chaudhary is Shawan. The film kicked off last week and the actors have been shooting at Pitch Stratford, an open-air theatre in London. They are currently filming a song choreographed by Kruti Mahesh that will be the introductory track for the four actors.\u201d\nThe source further added that soon enough the team will be moving towards the outskirts of the city. This move will take place during the course of the 33-day schedule. Well, we will await for these news faces to make some noise in their debut film, which is a mix of romance and action.

        "raw_content": "\u201cIt was thrilling,\u201d she said. \u201cThe minute after we got off the phone, someone from the phone company called me. They asked me who you were and I said I didn\u2019t know, you were just some guy I\u2019d met at work. They asked if you worked with me and I said no, because you quit, but they didn\u2019t ask me that.\u201d She laughed. \u201cAlthough I was already lying, so I don\u2019t know why I didn\u2019t keep going.\u201d\n\u201cWhat did they actually say?\u201d\n\u201cThey said they were looking for you. They wanted to know your name. I told them I didn\u2019t know.\u201d\n\u201cThey said they were looking for me.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s what they said. It all sounded very serious!\u201d\nMy chest hurt. \u201cSure,\u201d I said, and rather than stay at the house with the girl whose parents were gone for the day and who had been tanning topless in her backyard before I\u2019d arrived, instead I made up an excuse to leave and I never saw her again.\nSix or so weeks later when my family made the three-hour drive with me to Austin to check in to the dorms on the earliest possible day that you could check in, it came out that you needed a photo ID to complete your check-in. I\u2019d lost my driver\u2019s license to a guy who\u2019d graduated high school with me, who\u2019d told me he could get it doctored to say that I was 21. Like the early phone system, ID cards at the time had very little security baked into them. Pretty soon it was clear he\u2019d been lying, stringing me along. He just wanted to disappear with my $20, which was a lot of money to me at the time and would still be for a while.\nAfter he\u2019d dodged all my phone calls and my insistences that I didn\u2019t care about the money, that I just needed my ID back, I drove to the apartment near my house where I knew he\u2019d turned to living with the family of some other friend of his. A ratty-haired older woman answered the door and told me in simple monotones that the guy I was looking for was not there. I explained my situation, presuming that as an adult she might feel responsible to help me out.\nShe nodded dully. \u201cThis card,\u201d she slurred, \u201cit seems to be some sort of\u2026key to something for you, you could say.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s my ID,\u201d I said, still confused. What else did I have to say? Her eyes unfocused and then it hit me: this is exactly the kind of drug scene I worked hard to avoid on my adventures through the computer underground. I wiped tears from my eyes as I scrambled down the concrete apartment-building stairs. That guy probably made more money selling my ID than I\u2019d given him originally, once I thought about it.\nSo I only had a paper replacement license when I drove down to check into the dorms. My mom stared, open-mouthed, at my complete lack of preparation. I hadn\u2019t told her that I\u2019d lost my license, even though I knew full well that we\u2019d need it right then, right there. What kind of dummy was her son? What were we going to do?\nThen I remembered. Before packing for college, I had stripped away from my personal belongings anything I thought was childish or nerdy or otherwise immature \u2014 from my notebooks, my clothing, my wallet \u2014 but the one thing I couldn\u2019t let go, the one talisman that still held serious power for me, was my old Photon access card. Its picture of me was nearly three years old, ensuring that I looked even more like a lost little boy than I did in person as someone who was supposed to be a college freshman, but I showed it to the dorm lady and she was happy to let me off the hook. I moved my things into the dorm and my family drove home and I was only as alone in my head as I had ever been.\nIt\u2019s not a matter of \u201cstraight-and-narrow,\u201d I told myself. It\u2019s a matter of being uncomplicated. The truth was so simple and deception was only ever complicated, and I was more lucky than I deserved to be where I was, starting college, with such a bright future ahead. As long as I never talked to any of those people again, I\u2019d be fine.\nOf course it would not be that simple. I would have two more serious complications before I came to understand my real problem.",

Rahal (2015 Fontana)\nRLL RETURNS TO POCONO RACEWAY AS A TITLE CONTENDER\nThe 2015 ABC Supply 500 will mark the third open-wheel race at Pocono Raceway since 1989 as well as the third for the team. The 2.5-mile oval hosted Indy car races from 1971 to 1989 and team co-owner Bobby Rahal competed in eight races here from 1982-1989. The team entered cars for Graham Rahal (2013-2014) and James Jakes (2013) at this track and the No. 15 entry for Rahal will be the fourth for the team here.\nRAHAL IS NINE POINTS OUT OF THE SERIES LEAD IN SECOND PLACE\nWith his win in the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio on August 2, Rahal closed his deficit to series leader Juan Pablo Montoya from 42 points to 9 with two races to go and a total of 456 points to leader Montoya\u2019s 465. Rahal is looking forward to the upcoming challenge.\n\u201cWe\u2019re in a good place and we\u2019ve got momentum on our side for sure with four top-five\u2019s in a row. It\u2019s been a record breaking season for me so at this point I\u2019m just going to go out there and try to have fun and do the best we can and hopefully everything will take care of itself. If we put ourselves in a good position and we\u2019re smart throughout the race and weekend then hopefully we\u2019ll be in a place where, come the end of it, we can go for it and go for a win.\u201d\nGRAHAM ON THE THIRD 500-MILE RACE THIS SEASON\nRahal drove the No. 15 Steak \u2018n Shake Honda to a fifth place finish in the Indy 500 then won the MAVTV 500 at Fontana. He is hoping for another strong result this weekend in the final 500-mile race this season \u2013 the ABC Supply 500 at Pocono Raceway \u2014 which he points out is a big race for the team for many reasons.\n\u201cDifferent aero packages were run at the other 500-mile races but I do think that we have learned a lot since we first ran the aero package on an oval and I think that lately we have been able to get some work done to close the gap even further to where we ultimately want to be. This is a big race for us from many different perspectives and starting up front is going to be very important, particularly if Pocono goes at it did last year where it was pretty green the entire race. I think we are starting to figure out the aero kit, we\u2019re starting to get in a better place here and become a little more competitive. Hopefully this will be the next step and we will be able to show that this weekend.\u201d\nGRAHAM ON OTHER CONTENDERS AT POCONO\nRahal is 9 points behind Montoya in second place and is 25 points ahead of third place Scott Dixon (431), 49 points ahead of fourth place Helio Castroneves (437), and 50 ahead of fifth place Will Power (406). He knows that there are many drivers capable of a win this weekend. Especially those he is surrounded by in the championship standings.\n\u201cThe contenders are the obvious ones: (Will) Power, Helio (Castroneves), (Scott) Dixon, myself and obviously (Juan Pablo) Montoya. I would expect (Marco) Andretti and the whole team (Andretti Autosport) to be good at Pocono so they are going to be tough as will the rest of the Ganassi cars too. There are a lot of good guys out there right now but the guys we are racing against in the standings really, like Dixon and Montoya, we have to stay close to those guys and they don\u2019t have any weaknesses. Montoya won last year and I fully expect him to be pretty strong again.\u201d\nGRAHAM AT POCONO\nThe ABC Supply 500 will be Rahal\u2019s third race at this track. In 2014, he started 14th and moved into 11th on the opening lap but his helmet pad on the right side of the cockpit flew out of the car and he gradually dropped to 19th. The helmet pad helps the drivers head stay upright while sustaining high G-Forces for 200 laps and he was unable to see as well. Once he made his first stop and the team replaced the helmet pad he steadily climbed back up the field and ran 12th midway through the race and held the fastest lap of the race through his third stint. He was in 11th place when a problem surfaced on Lap 158/200. The car appeared to abruptly change and Rahal spun. The side of the car made contact with the Turn 2 wall and he ultimately retired in 19th place. In 2013 he qualified 17th, started 16th due to a grid penalty ahead and finished 18th.\nTYPE OF RACING GRAHAM IS EXPECTING AT POCONO\n\u201cI think the style of racing is going to be more like it was at Indy. I don\u2019t see anybody going two wide anywhere around Pocono like at Indy but with the long straightaways it definitely gives you the opportunity to tow up on somebody and get by. It\u2019s going to be fast like it was here last year but I would say it would be most similar to the conditions in Indy as far as performance and passing opportunities which is just like it was last year at Pocono. There will probably be a lot of green flag running so it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.\u201d",

I was on a really good lap there but didn\u2019t quite finish it off so I\u2019m looking forward to getting out there tomorrow to see what we\u2019ve got. This (title fight) is going to be hard, it\u2019s going to be pretty tight.\u201d\nFAST FACTS: Will be his eighth Indy car race here. His best start is sixth place with Newman/Haas/ Lanigan Racing (NHLR) in 2009 and best finish is fifth with Service Central Chip Ganassi Racing (SCCGR) in 2012. He has finished in the top-10 in four of his seven races. In 2014, he avoided a multi-car collision on the start in Sonoma and moved from his 14th place qualifying position to 12th. He pit out of sequence on Lap 8 and climbed up to run fourth before his second stop where he pit under caution with Sato and Conway, but those two topped off two additional times before green conditions which helped them later. Rahal climbed back into fourth when the majority of the field pitted during a caution for Saavedra and later passed Briscoe, Kanaan and Conway to take the lead on Lap 64 of 85 which he held until Lap 81 when he had to pit for 2.2 gallons of fuel. Due to extreme fuel conservation, the fuel setting he had been running in didn\u2019t have Pit Lane Speed control and he was given a drive through penalty for speeding when he entered the pits for his splash of fuel and served it on Lap 84 of 85 which ultimately resulted in a 20th place finish. Rahal qualified eighth in 2013, ran as high as sixth but contact while in the middle of a three-wide situation dropped him to the back and he rallied to finish 11th. He qualified 15th for SCCGR in 2012, started 13th after grid penalties were served and finished fifth. He qualified 13th for SCCGR in 2011 and finished eighth. In 2010, he qualified 16th with NHR and finished 9th. Made the final Firestone Fast Six in qualifying six times in the seven road/street races in 2009 and started sixth in Sonoma for NHLR. Contact on the opening lap with Marco Andretti forced an early stop for a new front wing but his drive shaft broke when he attempted to leave the pits. After the car was repaired in the garage area, he returned to the track many laps down in 21st position and ultimately retired in the same place after completing 30 of the 75 laps. He started 15th and finished 8th here in 2008 with NHLR\u2026 His top finish this season are wins at Auto Club Speedway (June 27) and Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course (Aug. 2) and his top start is fifth in Pocono and Detroit Race 2 (entrant points)\u2026 Rahal is second in series standings with a total of 466 points and trails leader Juan Pablo Montoya by 34 (500) after Round 15 of 16.\nRAHAL LETTERMAN LANIGAN RACING AT SONOMA \u2026 The race will mark the eighth Indy car event for RLL here. The highest start and finish for the team here is by Buddy Rice in 2005 when he started sixth and finished second. Prior to the 2015 event, the team prepared a total of 13 Indy car entries for drivers Buddy Rice (2005-2006), Vitor Meira (2005), Danica Patrick (2005-2006), Jeff Simmons (2006), Scott Sharp (2007), Ryan Hunter-Reay (2007-2008), Takuma Sato (2012), Graham Rahal (2013-2014) and James Jakes (2013). The team has earned one podium (2nd \u2013 Rice 2005), one top-five and four top-10 finishes at the track. The No. 15 Steak \u2018n Shake entry for Graham Rahal will bring the Indy car total to 14 entries in 2015.\nNEXT UP: Practice 2 will take place tomorrow from 10:45-11:30 a.m. PT and be televised live on NBCSN at 1:30 PM ET.

The course is structured to provide both an engineering and policy perspective on the subject. Thus, the readings, class discussions, and assignments will require students to think as both an engineer and planner/analyst. The course will begin with a review of the state of water and sanitation services in different parts of the world and will raise the question of what constitutes \u201caccess\u201d to water. Following this introduction, we will study the design of important W&S technologies. We will then examine the broader environmental and public health considerations in water W&S planning. Armed with an understanding of critical W&S issues and technologies, in the final section of the course we will examine key ideas/topics such as multiple-use water services (MUS), demand-oriented planning, service pricing, decentralization vs. centralization of W&S services, community participation in the planning process, and post-construction support.\nNote: I plan to use a Google Glass and Google+ platform to support this course and transform the way in which the material is delivered.\nPrerequisites: None (The CEE3104 prerequisite no longer applies.

        "raw_content": "Habo is thirteen and he lives in Mwanza, Tanzania. His father left the family years ago, leaving his mother and siblings alone to scratch out a meager existence on their little farm. Habo's job is to tend the goats. He would like to help out more, but Habo can't stand even short amounts of time in the sun. You see, Habo is albino.\nBeing an albino in Tanzania is not only difficult but also dangerous. The constant hot sun is definitely a problem, but the attitude of the people is an even greater challenge. Because no one understands why Habo is the way he is, his mother has been blamed for his oddities. People speculate that his father was a white man or that his mother committed some other sin that caused his condition and brought the family bad luck. Although his mother loves him, their relationship is distant as she tries to find ways to care for her children and keep the home together.\nUnable to pay the landlord, Habo's mother announces that they will be moving to the city to live with an aunt. His older brother will stay behind to finish the coffee harvest and join them later. The move will be taking them to a much larger place where jobs will be more plentiful, however, Habo knows the move will also increase the likelihood of danger.\nHabo must be kept in hiding at his aunt's house. Unfortunately, a casual comment from his sister reveals his strange condition and an evil poacher attempts to kill Habo and sell his body parts as good luck medicine. Habo knows the only recourse is to leave his family and head to the larger city of Dar es Salaam where life is not so dangerous for albinos.\nIn her final author's note Tara Sullivan writes of her fascination with the plight of albinos in Tanzania and surrounding countries. After researching the horrible stories of dismemberment and other ways African medicine men used albinos, she was inspired to write this fictional account. Habo's tale is at once horrific and inspiring as readers will follow the young teen on his journey to find a place that will accept him for who he is and appreciate the talents he has to offer.\nWICKEDPEDIA by Chris Van Etten\nWICKEDPEDIA by Chris Van Etten is the perfect murder mystery for summer beach reading. Complete with high school gossip, a touch of humor, and some gruesome killing, it will grab readers and keep them in a choke hold until the end.\nCole is battling Winnie for valedictorian, and to make matters worse, Winnie is his ex-girlfriend. He hasn't truly gotten over their breakup, and he certainly isn't a fan of her new boyfriend and soccer star, Josh.\nWhen Cole's friend Gavin suggests a way to embarrass and maybe even sideline Josh, Cole is all in. Using Wikipedia is a shortcut their teachers frown upon, and when they discover Josh uses it regularly, they decide to do a bit of editing to \"help\" Josh with his research for an upcoming speech.\nEverything works just as they plan and Josh suffers publicly. But, when Cole and Gavin get a bit more creative on Wikipedia, events begin to spiral out of control. What started out as a joke is now ending in death and disfigurement caused by someone who is obviously watching their every move.\nAuthor Chris Van Etten provides plenty of intense action and intrigue in WICKEDPEDIA. Get your hands on a copy today.\nI have a number of reactions to report with this review of SAY WHAT YOU WILL by Cammie McGovern.\n1) I discovered it while browsing the new releases at the bookstore. Really glad I selected it!\n2) As I read it, I was pleasantly surprised to identify it as a romance that might appeal to some guy readers.\n3) Although I was usually one jump ahead in the plot, there were still enough twists to keep me up all night turning pages.\nAmy, a victim of cerebral palsy (CP), is headed into her senior year of high school. She walks with the aid of a walker and speaks with the help of a computerized device called a Pathway. Through the years she has had adult aides to help her get to classes and deal with the physical requirements of her condition. She was used to eating her \"special\" lunch in a staff lunchroom and having the ever present adult act as a go-between to communicate with students and staff. Amy may have needed individualized assistance for some things but not with her classwork. Amy found schoolwork a breeze, and as a result, her mother was busy planning her final year of high school and the application process for all the colleges she hoped her daughter could attend.\nFor her final year in high school, Amy had one request. She was tired of spending the majority of her time with adults. It was clear to her that her fellow students were not inspired toward friendship due to the constant presence of her \"teacherlike\" helpers. Amy worked long and hard to convince her parents that she wanted to have peer helpers for her senior year. She made her case successfully, and through an application and interview process, her mother selected four of Amy's fellow classmates to act as her helpers and hopefully her new friends.\nChloe, Sarah, Sanjay, and Matthew were the chosen four. Helping Amy would be a paid position and also count toward community service credit for the year. As the experiment started, Amy found Matthew to be the strangest fit. The other three went about their tasks willingly, but sometimes left Amy behind making it seem like they viewed the companionship as merely a job. Matthew was attentive, and Amy quickly decided he had the potential to be a real friend and maybe more, but his own odd tics and behavior had her convinced that he had serious problems of his own.\nReaders of SAY WHAT YOU WILL receive story insight from both Amy and Matthew as the POV's of both characters are strongly present. Amy is dealing with her physical disabilities and her domineering mother, while Matthew quietly suffers with OCD tendencies that have increased in recent years since his parents' divorce and his mother's decline into depression. Having the balance of Matthew's voice alongside Amy's is what may make this a successful read for both male and female teens. I will definitely be book talking it with that in mind.\nThis is the first YA effort for author Cammie McGovern. A must read as far as I'm concerned, and I am eager to see what she has to offer next.\nI've revisited THE CATCHER IN THE RYE. Since I'll most likely be teaching the book to 12th graders in the coming year, I decided to reread it. Having read it in high school waaaaayyyy too many years ago, I actually felt like I was reading it for the first time. The main thing that struck me was how \"YA\" it is. Having read many YA novels over the past 8 years as both a teacher and blogger, CATCHER seems to have remained rather relevant.\nHolden is dealing with many of the same pressures faced by teens today. Although the teens I deal with daily are not boarding school students, they are often left to their own devices more than most would believe. Holden has been kicked out of yet another school and dreads facing his parents. School is not working out well for him, but he knows it is what is expected of him. That expectation comes without much support. His parents are busy with their own lives, and Holden isn't the type to cultivate close friendships so his support system is basically nonexistent.\nThere are high expectations of today's teens. School districts and teacher success rely more and more on high test scores. Acceptance into preferred colleges and universities is tied to the same high scores and exhausting extracurricular expectations of today's teens. Unfortunately, the increased stress on teens is not backed up by increased parental support. Many parents today are struggling to keep ahead financially and day-to-day concerns often take precedence over the emotional needs of their teenagers. Combine peer pressure, the temptations of stress relieving substances, and the increase in bullying, and many teens have more than they can handle.\nIn my second reading of Holden's story, I didn't see as many outdated references as I expected. His stream of consciousness approach that often jumped from one random situation to the next was something I didn't remember from my first reading. As I read, I found myself comparing this to today's fast-paced communication and access to information. I tend to think the style will be comfortable for modern teen readers.\nLanguage wasn't an issue for me, although, a Facebook friend my age mentioned that she found it offense. Being on the frontlines with middle school and high school teens, it isn't much different than what I know they hear every day. That isn't meant to condone foul language but rather to recognize, that at least in this area, not much has changed.\nObserving Holden's struggle to deal with recent disappointments and previous losses, my heart went out to him. In putting off the inevitable, he attempts to take on the challenges of the adult world when he would rather cling to the comfort it seems only his younger sister may be able to provide.\nOverall, I would say I found THE CATCHER IN THE RYE still relatable, however, I think I would say my favorite reads come from more recently published YA offerings. I can't help thinking that the presence of J.D. Salinger on a panel of current YA authors might make for a great event.\nCALL ME BY MY NAME by John Ed Bradley\nFootball in Louisana is almost a religion, and it wasn't any different in the 1970's. Something was different in the 70's though. As a southern state, Louisana still wasn't fully on board with desegregation. Rodney Boulet and his twin sister Angie grew up in a small town where mixing blacks and whites still wasn't an accepted idea.\nRodney met Tater Henry on the baseball field when the two played Little League. When Tater, a young black player, boldly stepped on the field, not everyone was thrilled. Tater had solid skills though and earned the reluctant respect of both coaches and players.\nAs the years passed, Tater and Rodney became true friends. When they weren't playing baseball, they were perfecting their skills at other sports, even swimming when Rodney and Angie could sneak Tater into the city pool where blacks were still not allowed to swim. When it came time to start high school, blacks were beginning to attend the local public high school. Although, many white families sent their children to private schools to avoid desegregation, Rodney and Angie's parents weren't able to afford the necessary tuition. But, Rodney was excited to start high school with his now best friend Tater by his side. He knew their athletic talents would score them sure spots on the football team.\nAs expected, the team's coaches and players didn't give Tater a warm welcome, but once his speed and quick thinking became evident, he became a valuable member on the field. Rodney didn't really notice Tater's skin color anymore, and the two began a great partnership on the football field.\nOne thing did change as time passed. Rodney's sister Angie was falling in love. It was one thing to have someone black as his best friend, but Rodney wasn't sure how he felt about his sister having a black boyfriend. He knew for sure that their father wasn't happy about it, and others frequently made their feelings clear as well.\nAuthor John Ed Bradley brings the football action alive and at the same time clearly reveals the racial tension in the South in the early 1970's. Both teen and adult readers will appreciate the struggles of the main characters to form lasting friendships and at the same time deal with the conflicting emotions brought on by the times.\nWHEN MR. DOG BITES by Brian Conaghan\nLet me explain a couple reasons why I bought this book. #1 - The title and cover are great! #2 - When the jacket blurb mentioned that the main character has Tourette's, I was hooked. I am currently working on writing a book with a teen in our public library writers' group, and our main character has Tourette's. I figured I had better pick up this book to see if our idea had already been done or if we have a chance to do it even better. (Wishful thinking, of course.) Here's a brief review and a little commentary about our idea compared to author Brian Conaghan's.\nDylan Mint is sixteen. \"Mr. Dog\" represents the uncontrollable urge to let his Tourette's take over his thoughts and actions. If Mr. Dog has his way, Dylan's tenuous control over his outbursts is destroyed. At that point he is not responsible for what comes out of his mouth. Anyone close enough to hear him yell will witness every curse word imaginable and then some.\nDylan and his best friend Amir (diagnosed on the autism spectrum) go through their days trying to be as normal as possible. Their biggest desire is to do normal sixteen year old things in normal sixteen year old ways. During a routine doctor visit, Dylan hears his mother and his doctor whispering. He believes they are discussing the fact that he has less than a year to live. He immediately begins to create a list of the things he wants to do before croaks or as he says, \"cacks.\"\nKnowing he has a limited time, his to do list includes only three items. First and foremost, he wants to sleep with the only hot girl that goes to his special school. He hopes to get some help from Amir, but all the time he spends protecting his friend from vicious bullies and trying to get to the bottom of his mother's strange behavior, threatens to prevent him from achieving his goal.\nWHEN MR. DOG BITES is nothing like the novel my fellow writer and I are trying to draft. Although our protagonists may share the same syndrome, the focus is much different. One thing I gained from reading WMDB is a better understanding of Tourette's. Dylan's case seems pretty severe which causes his thinking and behavior to veer wildly off course. This often became distracting. My writing partner and I have already discussed that our character will have had some success in controlling his impulses through therapy, medication, and diet. After reading Dylan's story, I believe Tourette's will need to play a secondary role in our novel with the plot driving the action instead. Now for the hard work - finding time to continue our writing.\nRumor has it that Alice slept with two guys at the same party on the same night. Then when one of those guys, the most popular guy in school, ends up dieing in a car accident, Alice gets the blame. She wasn't behind the wheel or even in the car, but another rumor begins that she was sexting Brandon at the time of the crash.\nEveryone has something to say about what happened. THE TRUTH ABOUT ALICE highlights the events through the eyes of four of Alice's fellow classmates. There is Josh best friend of Brandon and accident survivor. Kelsie is Alice's former best friend. Elaine hosted the infamous party where the rumors started, and Kurt maybe be the least popular kid at school but he's probably the most loyal to Alice.\nAlthough the focus is on Alice and the meltdown of her reputation, each narrator gradually reveals his or her own personal issues. From the outside it might look like Alice has the most to lose, but looks can be deceiving.\nTHE TRUTH ABOUT ALICE by Jennifer Mathieu follows the students in a small community as the rumors unfold. The callous attitudes and cruel behavior are reminiscent of Jay Asher's THIRTEEN REASONS WHY and are sure to have readers talking long after they finish the last page.\nFranklin Middle School is not your average school. Franklin has the usual classes, teachers, and homework, but it also has a dark side. Matt Stevens is out to make his school a better place.\nAlthough he is only in the seventh grade, Matt has his own private eye business. He has recently been hired by Vincent Biggio who deals in forged hall passes and black market candy. If you cross Vincent, you become part of the Outs, and that's something no one wants. Matt has been hired to find out who took out one of Vincent's people, Nikki Fingers.\nMatt is sure he knows who the guilty party is, but it only takes a little investigation to determine that the suspect list is much longer than he anticipated. It is not going to be easy to find out who he can trust and who is out to make Matt part of the Outs along with Nikki.\nTHE BIG SPLASH by Jack D. Ferraiolo is laugh out loud funny and full of fast-paced action. It is perfect for middle grade readers, especially boys.",

The applied range of flue gas CO2 concentrations represents typical profiles of emission sources associated with industrial applications. Modeling of the process chemistry to study the effect on process performance reveals that with an appropriate design of the capture process, the specific heat requirement for solvent regeneration decreases as the CO2 content of the flue gas increases. At the same time, the specific cooling requirement of the process increases and the appropriate shape of the temperature profile in the absorber becomes critical at high flue gas CO2 concentrations, especially when using MEA as absorbent, which has high reactivity and a high heat of reaction compared with ammonia. For both solvents investigated it is difficult to achieve high capture rates at low concentrations of CO2.\n10.1021/ie503852m",

Therefore, understanding the profession of the Enterprise Architects in enterprise transformation and development becomes important. However, there are very few empirically based studies which have reflected these professionals within their work domain of an every-day business. The purpose of this paper is to increase our understanding of how the Enterprise Architect\u2019s practice their profession and in addition, to study how these professionals describe their occupation. Five different topics are of particular interest to portraying the occupation of the Enterprise Architect's profession; the role, competence, power, style of acting and main focus. The research is a descriptive study based on interviews with Enterprise Architects in ten large Swedish organizations. In conclusion, the architect is considered as a proud individualist with an entrepreneurial vein who endeavor consideration, reflection, and the guidance capability.\nEnterprise Architect profession\nstyle of acting\nKalevi Pessi\n9th European Conference on IS Management and Evaluation \u2013 ECIME 2015",

Management of Biological Invasions, 7(3), 213\u2013220. http://doi.org/10.3391/mbi.2016.7.3.01\nCoral reef systems are in global decline. In Australia, much of this decline has been attributable to cyclic outbreaks (every ~17 years) of the coral-feeding crown-of-thorns seastar. While a native species, when in large enough densities the seastar acts like an invasive pest. Since 2012 the Australian government has invested significantly in a targeted control program using lethal injection. While this program is effective for individual reefs, it is not a complete strategyfor the entire Great Barrier Reef (~2,500 reefs). In order to find a longer-term solution to the problem, in 2015, the lead author travelled to New Zealand, the United States, and Canada under a Churchill Fellowship to understand successful aquatic integrated pest management strategies and their potential application to the Great Barrier Reef. Meetings and workshops were convened with experts who specialise in risk assessment, categorisation, and management of aquatic invasive species. The experts comprised academics, applied scientists, policy makers, and a not for profit community based invasive species council. Bioinvasion management and prioritisation of management effort using risk-based frameworks were reviewed for application to the crown-of-thorns seastar. This viewpoint is novel in its approach of applying invasive species tools and perspectives to a non-invasive, native marine pest. Early detection and rapid response is key to preventing the transition of the seastar from natural densities to outbreak densities. However given the seastar is a native species already established, when in outbreak mode a multifaceted post-border management approach is essential. Private support funding models, that bridge conservation and tourism/philanthropy have proved successful in New Zealand to supplement government funded marine reserve management \u2013 this is an approach which should be explored by Australia to help manage the seastar. Dedicated support and commitment is needed to break the issue-attention cycle. On the Great Barrier Reef, a dedicated biosecurity approach should be used to maintain the seastar at natural densities, increase the time between outbreaks, protect coral cover and increase resilience of the system.\nRegional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre (REABIC)",

He is a real person with a real day job not involve the writing industry. It just so happens his day job is the equivalent of two full-time jobs.\nHe feels remarkably strange writing about himself in the third person. He doesn\u2019t have agents, publicists, or publishers to do it for him, so he will have to get over it.\nAs of yet, he hasn\u2019t quit his day job, and can be found delivering freight all over the St. Louis area. He resides in Saint Charles, Missouri, with his beautiful person, Angela, step-sons, and their four-legged friends.\nThat is quite enough of all that pretentious writer business\u2026\nI am a real guy. I\u2019ve been in love with the written word for decades and only recently came out of the closet as a writer. It was the hardest decision I\u2019ve made. I don\u2019t expect everyone to love me, or think I\u2019m amazing, because there are many people with far more talent and skill in this industry.\nWriting is a choice, a painful choice to sit and bleed on the keyboard. People choose not to be a writer for reasons of fear, insecurity, or embarrassment. It isn\u2019t easy. It\u2019s hard, not only hard, but excruciating. So why do it?\nIt may sound like artsy rubbish, but I do it because I can\u2019t not do it.\nFor the longest time I thought like Marty McFly. \u201cWhat if they say I\u2019m no good?\u201d etcetera.\nI tinkered with ideas and never seriously acted on them, that is until about ten years ago.\nI submitted an essay in an English class, and when I came to class the next day the professor stopped me before I walked into the classroom.\n\u201cRick, can I have a word?\u201d\nI thought I did something wrong.\n\u201cAre you okay with me putting your work on a Powerpoint to teach the class?\u201d\nMy face turned bright red. \u201cYes.\u201d\n\u201cThis is some profound stuff,\u201d he said. \u201cYou have some talent. Keep writing.\u201d\nI didn\u2019t believe him. I don\u2019t know what I thought. Was it a set up, some kind of shaming. In the context of the question I was a rock star, but I still worried. Self doubt is a killer to a writer. \u201cDon\u2019t do this sort of something,\u201d he might say. Well, that isn\u2019t what he said. Not even close.\nBy the end of the semester I was turning in A papers every week. I began to see improvements. Confidence grew, and I was the guy. You know that guy. The one everybody hates because he gently bends the rules and still gets A\u2019s.\nNow, having the ability or talent to produce material in an educational environment is nothing like trying to make your own way in the world. The old saying book smarts, street smarts. Yada yada yada, you get it. By now I\u2019ve forgotten more rules than I can remember, and I\u2019m good with it. Few books are sold for their literary merit.\nI want to hear about smiling faces from the kid\u2019s books, the night terrors from the supernatural thrillers, and the tears from the romantic tragedy stuff (yes, I do that too). Drop me a line here or on social media. I don\u2019t want to ever think I have fans, only friends who want to read what thoughts come to me in the night. God willing, there is so much more to come.\nIf you have a dream go for it. Fear is the killer of creativity. Move past the fear, and don\u2019t let it sneak its way back into your mind.\nBest wishes in all your endeavors.",

Live racing begins August 8 through September 7, with the stable area consisting of 1000 stalls, to open July 25. Further updates on \u201cRosie\u2019s\u201d, race conditions and purse levels for Colonial Downs will soon follow.\n\u201cThis is an exciting step for everyone impassioned by the rebirth of live racing in Virginia and for our team delivering on our promise to revitalize horse racing in the Commonwealth,\u201d said Colonial Downs Group senior vice-president and general manager John Marshall. \u201cWe are already making significant progress preparing Colonial Downs to evolve into one of the country\u2019s premier race meets.\u201d\n\u201cIt has been a long four years waiting for this day,\u201d added VEA president Debbie Easter. \u201cOur owners, breeders, trainers, veterinarians and everyone else associated with horse racing in Virginia have much anticipated the return of live racing at Colonial Downs and the resurgence in our industry that we know will come with it.\u201d\nColonial Downs stopped operating under previous ownership in 2014. The new Colonial Downs Group will re-introduce the facility in New Kent County in April 2019 offering the newly approved historical horse racing machines as well as satellite wagering on live horse racing across North America. A variety of dining services will also be available. Eventually, Colonial Downs Group plans several special events at the venue, but the return of live thoroughbred horse racing in August is the priority for 2019 with plans under way for an exciting opening day including the return of the Virginia Derby on August 31. The rebirth of racing at Colonial Downs powered by innovative technology at \u201cRosie\u2019s\u201d positions the Commonwealth of Virginia, home of the famed Triple Crown Champion Secretariat, to re-emerge to relevance within the racing industry.\nColonial Downs Group is making a $300 million investment in the Commonwealth of Virginia creating 800 new jobs by the end of 2019. This effort will generate $25 million annually in state tax revenues, $17 million annually in local tax revenues and $25 million annually to Virginia\u2019s horse industry.

        "raw_content": "How Many Unemployed People Does It Take To Screw In A Lightbulb?\nPosted: October 20, 2010 in Technology and Business\nEveryone makes everything too complicated (including me!).\nHowever, when it comes to the stock market \u2014 given that everything can be great guns one moment, then absolute doom the next \u2014 I like to keep a few big levers in mind for sanity purposes.\nFor anyone reading my blog, you know I think the price of oil is the mother of all levers.\nI used to think unemployment was pretty important, too.\nIt certainly seems reasonable to think fewer employed means less spending.\nBut, then, why are corporate revenues up?\nI mean, I can understand why corporate profits are up\u2026 most people would say it had to do with the belt-tightening of the last few years\u2026 that is, the very thing that has contributed to the large unemployment rate.\nBut, maybe \"cutting the fat\" \u2014 cutting out the least productive and contributing employees, which reduces expenses and increases profits \u2014 means corporations can better take care of their other 95% of employees that still have their jobs.\nI think this may get overlooked in unemployment discussions: The vast majority of folks still have jobs\u2026 and are now working for even stronger companies.\nAnd, as we know, a well-cared for (well paid?) employee usually continues spending.\nIndeed, this is why I\u2019m so obsessed that oil behaves itself. Unemployment hasn\u2019t stopped revenue growth\u2026 but we know higher oil prices \u2014 which translates into higher prices for absolutely everything we buy \u2014 did.\nSaid another way: If you asked 20 people what they would rather have happen: The least competent among you will be terminated \u2014 a 1-in-20 (5%) layoff (or the equivalent of the U.S. going from 5 to 10% unemployment) \u2014 OR, you can save that person\u2019s job by agreeing that the price of everything you buy will go up just like in early 2009\u2026\n\u2026 almost everyone \u2014 except for the bottom 2-3 employees that know they don\u2019t really pull their weight \u2014 would say, \"I don\u2019t want $5 gas or $5 milk or $5 potato chips again! I\u2019m willing to take a 1 in 20 chance that I\u2019m not the least competent person in the room.\"\nThat\u2019s why \u2014 in general and anecdotally \u2014 unemployment going from 5 to 10% doesn\u2019t hurt anywhere nearly as bad as the price of oil spiking.\nThe corporate earnings \u2014 and revenue growth \u2014 we\u2019re seeing now\u2026 vs. earnings and revenues plummeting in late 2008/early 2009\u2026 are the proof.\nAlways the take-away: As long as oil behaves itself, things should keep stepping along.\nUPDATE: James Althucher of Formula Capital just did a Tech Ticker piece stating personal consumer expenditures were at an all-time high\u2026 and household debt obligations down to 1995 levels\u2026 so his belief is \u2014 despite unemployment \u2014 people still have money to spend. In fact, he goes on to say most recoveries are jobless recoveries.\nPosted: October 6, 2010 in Technology and Business\nGrowing up, Time and Newsweek were the two, HUGE news magazines.\nWas at the doctor\u2019s office today and I almost fell over when I saw how thin Newsweek was\u2026 it looked more like a pamphlet than a magazine.\nMy thought was, \"Newsweek is one of the great news brandnames\u2026 they must be doing a lot better online.\"\nTurns out they may not be\u2026 they just got sold today\u2026 for $1.\nOf course, pretty much every magazine in the world has gone through this transformation (a nice way to say \"gutted\"). Don\u2019t know why, but seeing Newsweek \u2014 the news titan of my youth \u2014 in this state just bummed me out more than I expected.\nI am humbly reminded that everything \u2014 everything \u2014 eventually cycles.",

        "raw_content": "Edward George Barrett\nBorn: 7 / 31 / 1965 at Pasco, WA (US)\nStats: \u2022 Retrosheet\nDuring an interview with Ted Barrett and his crew during their July 2015 visit to officiate a series between the Seattle Mariners and Boston Red Sox, it came out that Barrett was one of a select number of umpires who have earned advanced degrees.\nDan Bellino is another; he is a Doctor of Jurisprudence, a graduate of John Marshall Law School who has served as an aide to a federal judge in Chicago. Umpiring was suggested to him by one of his law school professors.\n\"So you're Dr. Barrett?\"\n\"Reverend Doctor \u2014 the guys call me Reverend Doctor Crew Chief.\"\nIndeed, Dr. Barrett is also an ordained minister. In the most recent offseason \u2014 2015/16 \u2014 he and fellow umpire Angel Hernandez traveled with others on a mission to Cuba. \"This was my third year going. Angel went with me in December, which was really cool because, like he said, it was his first time back. He met his cousin for the first time. It was very emotional. We went and did missionary work.\"\n\"I was ordained in the Southern Baptists, but I'm in a non-denominational church right now. In Arizona. I live in Gilbert. My undergrad was in kinesiology; that was in '88. Then after a few years I decided it was time to go back to school and get a theological degree and I got my master's degree in Biblical Studies [in 2007], from Trinity, which is a seminary in Newburgh, Indiana. It's a four-year college as well as a seminary \u2014 Trinity University as well as Trinity Theological Seminary. They were big in the early days of distance learning. They also do regional seminars and I was able to go during the winter. You could go for a four-day thing and meet the professor, which was great then as we talked back and forth.\"\nThere have been umpires who went into the ministry later in life, just as there are former ballplayers (Billy Sunday comes to mind) who later became ministers, but Teddy Barrett is the only one known to be a minister while an active umpire.\nDr. Barrett received his degree in 2013. The title of his dissertation for Trinity is An Investigation of Faith As A Life Principle in the Lives of Major League Umpires. 1 Barrett is also a co-founder of Calling for Christ, an organization created in 2003 to \"love, encourage, and disciple umpires in their relationships with Jesus.\" The board of directors of Calling for Christ (CFC) is comprised of MLB umpires Rob Drake, Mike Everett, Chris Guccione, Marvin Hudson, Alfonso Marquez, and Dave Rackley.2\nWriter Jon Mooallem wrote a piece for ESPN The Magazine in which he gives some of the background to Barrett's interest. \"Barrett broke into the majors full time in 1999 and, having grown up in a religious family in upstate New York, was deeply unsettled by what he saw when he arrived. 'How can I put this delicately?' he says. 'It was a devil's playground. It was a dark, dark time.'\"3\nWhen one stops and thinks about it a bit, umpires do not just come emerge from nowhere and return to anonymity. They are real people with real lives. As Barrett wrote in his dissertation, \"When a major league umpire speaks at a fundraiser dinner, classroom, church group, or some other event, he will inevitably receive the usual questions. What team do you ump for? What base do you work? Who is your favorite player? What is your favorite team? It is almost is if people, even the die-hard baseball fan, is under the impression that umpires appear from out of the ground underneath the stadium and work the game. Many people think umpires live in a city with a major league team and only work that game. Perhaps the umpires are so maligned because they are largely misunderstood.\"4\nTo provide grounding for his dissertation, Barrett began with the words \"It is said the job of the umpire is to start out perfect and get better.\" And yet, under all the stresses of the job, it is not surprising that in their personal lives \"some umpires fall into destructive behavior patterns.\"\nIn order to better understand the experiences and concerns of his fellow umpires, rather than simply relying on conversations and anecdotal evidence, he distributed a confidential survey to every one of the 68 serving umpires in Major League Baseball during the annual meeting of World Umpires Association, the union which represents major league umpires, after the 2011 season. Removing himself from the research process, Barrett received completed surveys from 37 of the other 67 umpires. Their written responses were illuminating and exceptionally candid.\nThe pressures of the job are intense, first to advance up the ladder and then to continue to undergo public and professional scrutiny even when established as a major-league umpire. To make it to the top is, in the words of former minor-league umpire Rick Roder, to progress through \"baseball's narrowest door.\"5 By way of some perspective, there are 100 United States Senators and there are 76 major-league umpires (a total of eight more were added in 2014 and 2015.)\nThere are only 76 major-league umpires and once one makes it, the rewards of the job are substantial \u2014 starting pay of $140,000 increasing to $400,000 in 2012, first-class travel, a $400 per diem, and \u2014 recently \u2014 even vacation time during the season.6 There remains a downside, however. Umpires are rarely home, missing milestone events in the lives of their children, hoping to hold together a relationship with a spouse who must inevitably be exceptionally understanding and capable of running a household. They do not travel with a baseball team, but in a very small group of four who must work together effectively on the field and who typically spend many of their non-working hours together as well. There is not only the strain on family life, but also the need to build productive working relationships while performing that work in an intensely competitive environment which inevitably pits one umpire against another, as it has throughout their entire professional development.\nVery few people make it to the top. Every year about 300 people attend one of the two umpire schools recognized by MLB. Twenty-five from each school will go on to an evaluation course, from which some will become minor-league umpires. If hired, they are ranked at the end of every season in the minors and they will either be retained or released. There are 293 minor-league umpires, Barrett writes. In an average year, there might be one or two openings in the ranks of major-league umpiring. That math alone would be discouraging, but there is also the process of getting there for those who have, often a process that takes eight or nine years working for one-tenth the pay and with few of the amenities available at the top. The minor-league umpires do often work in the majors as fill-ins, and receive big-league pay during that time, but without the benefits or protection of the union. Rob Drake worked 1,218 games over 11 seasons as a Triple-A fill-in before being hired as an MLB umpire. Chris Guccione worked 1,250 over nine seasons.\nAll the while, every call of the umpires in every game is subject to reaction from ballplayers whose very livelihood can be affected by a safe-out call. And their calls are studied minutely by umpire observers, umpire supervisors, and by a general public which doesn't hesitate to spew out abuse when they (rightly or wrongly) disagree with a call.\nLike any employee in any field of work, umpires make mistakes. When a file clerk misplaces a dossier, he/she will never have 35,000 people booing at them for their mistake. They won't be blasted through social media; their children will not receive abuse back in their hometowns. Barrett reminds us of one of the worst cases, after umpire Jim Joyce missed a very important call at the end of what would have been a perfect game for Armando Galarraga on June 2, 2010. Umpires take their mistakes to heart, and often can lose sleep to a bad call in a routine game. But, Barrett writes, \"When Jim Joyce had the missed call in Detroit in 2010, his children received instant death threats on Facebook.\" He adds, \"One need to only do an engine search by typing in the name of any major league umpire, the vulgarity and hatred the reader would discover is hard to believe.\"7\nNo one in the world felt worse than Joyce. A 20-year veteran umpire at the time, he'd made a mistake, but this was a mistake that deprived Galarraga of baseball immortality.8 The players had just voted Joyce best umpire in the game the year before. And at the time of the call, he was suffering a profound loss. \"His father had recently passed away and this would be the first time he stayed in the home he was raised in without his father being there.\"9\nUmpires Larry Barnett and Don Denkinger are among others who received death threats that were taken seriously enough to result in a degree of mobilization by police and/or the FBI.10\nIt\u2019s not surprising that umpires overwhelmingly value the implementation of replay\u2014it helps them ensure that the call is right.\nThis is not to say that most umpires don't find their work satisfying. Of the 34 umpires who responded to the question in Barrett's survey, 33 said they were happy in the jobs. \"Many used the term 'very happy' or 'extremely happy.' Some of them went as far to say they 'love' their job.\"11 They are the elite who made it to the very top, and do have significant job security \u2014 though even umpire supervisors are not exempt from termination. Barrett wrote, \"Two supervisors were fired following the 2009 postseason in which there were several high-profile umpiring mistakes.\"12\nCompetition between umpires can be intense. Indeed, Barrett writes, \"From the first day of umpire school the students are fully aware that they will be in direct competition with each other\u2026The entire process from day one is a competition among umpires for progression.\"13 Even after working as a fill-in for years, and being hired as a major-league umpire, there is a four-year probationary period. Perhaps it isn't a stretch to learn that \"Of the thirty-seven umpires who responded, thirty-six of them say there are umpires they do not trust. Many men simply stated that there are those they do not trust and many added that they constantly watch what they say in front of others. Some men pointed out that while it is a problem in the umpiring profession, it is also a problem in society as a whole.\"14\nBarrett had earlier mentioned finding a \"devil's playground\" when he first arrived in the majors. And indeed, there is politicking and back-stabbing in many workplaces. Umpires are susceptible to the same crutches and temptations that others fall victim to. It is unrealistic to think that because baseball is a game with some glamour attached to it, somehow umpires are immune. That is not the case. Barrett talks about the extra responsibility of the crew chief, to keep his men working together effectively: \"There are members of the staff, who have manipulative behavior, and they need to be called on it or they will shatter the crew dynamic. There are members of the staff who are in the midst of full blown addiction; their behavior can be detrimental to the crew. There are members of the staff who suffer from severe psychiatric disorders, a crew chief must be able to navigate all of these problems and keeps the crew functioning as a cohesive unit\u2026.There have been situations in the major leagues where men have worked side by side with functioning alcoholics.\"15 That this is true in many workplaces does not mean it is less challenging to professional umpires and those who care about them. And umpires are indeed subject to random breathalyzer tests and other drug tests during the season, before they walk on the field of play. But such a test cannot pick up other forms of substance abuse, and cannot determine the mental health of the umpire. One of the motivations behind Baseball Chapel and a baseball ministry such as Calling for Christ is to help the crew confront such problems.\nThere is already a great deal of stress with which umpires must cope, but a crew which harbors someone struggling with serious issues \"can add a great deal of stress to an umpire\u2019s life, an umpires\u2019 locker room should be an inner sanctum, a refuge from the bedlam that is a professional baseball game. Instead, it can be a place of bitterness, anger, jealousy, tears, rage, and fistfights. It can also be a place full of despair, despondency, loneliness and depression.\"16\nDivorce is not uncommon, but is not dramatically different than that in the population at large. And fully half the respondents said they have remained faithful and never engaged in \"chasing.\" Of those who have entered second marriages, the divorce rate is much, much lower than in the general population.\nNonetheless, among the respondents there were four who admitted to some form of sexual addiction. Pornography is among the problems they face. Three admitted to tobacco addiction and two to alcohol addiction. Several acknowledged problems with food addiction. Some had multiple addictions.\n\"Umpires wear masks when they work home plate,\" writes Barrett in his dissertation. \"This is something they become very adept at, wearing masks. Many of them know they need to keep a certain persona on the field as they do their jobs. Some of them feel the need to play the role of umpire off of the field as well. Many umpires emulate the veteran arbiters they look up to. They adopt their persona both on and off the field. As their career passes, they never take a good look at their own lives. They get so caught up in trying to emulate their idols they never take the time to discover their own personalities.\"17\nThe situation appears to be improving, unfortunately accelerated by the 1996 death on the field of umpire John McSherry. Major League Baseball hired a full-time medical consultant, and a nutritionist. Several have sought counseling, though often outside baseball's employee assistance program, in order to avoid unfortunate concerns regarding confidentiality. Barrett is optimistic: \"I believe the umpires of the present are more mature, more aware of their surroundings, and make better decisions than umpires of the past.\"18\nTed Barrett also found work, earlier in his career, as a sparring partner for professional boxers, and has indeed sparred with seven world champions: George Foreman, Evander Holyfield, Greg Page, Razor Ruddick, Obed Sullivan, Tony Tucker, and Mike Tyson. \u201cThey put \u2018Everlast\u2019 on me and then hung me from the ceiling and punched me.\u201d\nMore seriously, he elaborated, \"I wore head gear and everything. I got punched a lot. I had to have my nose fixed and this tooth. I've had a few scars. I kind of was in demand for a while because there aren't too many heavyweight sparring partners. I'd promise my wife that I'd stop and then I'd get a phone call, and when I was in the minor leagues, I needed the money so I'd go.\n\u201cThere's an etiquette to it. You need someone you can trust. When you've got a fighter in there that they've got a lot of money invested in, they don't want someone sparring with him who's trying to hurt him or trying for a cheap shot. The first world champ I sparred with was Greg Page. He was a champ in the mid-1980s. He told me, 'You could make a lot of money sparring, but you've got to do it right. You've got to know the business. You've got to know what you're doing.' He taught me the sparring partners' creed and everything, and I became in demand.\"\nThe sparring is behind him now. Umpiring pays well enough to take care of his family. A son, Andrew Barrett, has entered the ranks of professional umpiring. \"He went to umpire school in January of '15. He worked the '15 season in the Arizona League. Arizona rookie league. Then he worked Instruction League in Florida. He worked minor-league spring training this year. He's in extended spring training now [April 2016], waiting for the season to start. He'll probably be in the Northwest or Pioneer League.\nI wouldn't let him go to umpire school out of high school. His buddy did, and his buddy is now in Triple A. But I told him he had to get a college degree or join the military. So he did four years in the Air Force. When he got out, that's when he went to umpire school.\nI never encouraged it. I never discouraged it. He always followed in my footsteps a little bit, other than he didn't play football. He played one year but it wasn't his cup of tea. He played baseball. He boxed a little. He kind of grew up in the gym, so it was kind of natural. That I did try to discourage, but\u2026.\n\"He was nuclear weapons maintenance. The sad thing is, he really wanted to travel. He joined the Air Force and he did four years in Albuquerque. It was 45 minutes for him to go through security and then go underground. I said, 'Man, it sounds awesome.' He goes, 'It sounds awesome, but it's not. It's pretty boring.' He and his wife have got a young baby and they've got another one on the way. It's going to be a challenge, like I had, with young kids.\n\"I've got a daughter. She's going to college. My youngest son's in the Army. He just got back from Kuwait. He's in Colorado Springs now. He's on a tank crew. He's only 20. They're talking about Eastern Europe right now, in February. I saw on Fox News they're sending 240 tanks to Poland in February.\"\nFor all the varied life Ted Barrett has enjoyed, it comes as no surprise that his work in the ministry is what he feels gives his life the most meaning.\nThis biography is included in \"The SABR Book on Umpires and Umpiring\" (SABR, 2017), edited by Larry Gerlach and Bill Nowlin.\nThis article began with a conversation in the umpires room at Fenway Park on July 11, 2015 and another on April 18, 2016. It was furthered by a reading of Dr. Barrett's dissertation, and subsequent communications.\n1 A copy of Edward G. Barrett's dissertation was supplied by Trinity, courtesy of Sheryle Knight of Trinity Theological Seminary.\n2 The Calling for Christ website may be found at: www.callingforchrist.com\n3 Jon Mooallem, \"Lest Ye Be Judged,\" ESPN The Magazine, June 20, 2014.

(Remsen, Iowa: by the author, 2003).\n6 In the environment where they work, even the highest-paid umpire makes less than the minimum wage of the lowest-paid player, which in 2015 was $507,500. The highest-paid players earn more in a year than do all 76 major-league umpires together. Nonetheless, at one point, Barrett writes, \"Umpiring at the big league level is a Peter Pan existence. You never have to make your bed because the hotel maid will do that for you. You never have to do your laundry because your clubbie will do it. You never have to do dishes because you are eating in a restaurant.\" (p. 82) And it falls on the wives to do most of the work in the household.\n7 Barrett, 65, 66.\n8 See the book which pitcher and umpire wrote together.

        "raw_content": "5 tips for re-invigorating your business plan\nAlthough January seems the more logical time to consider business growth, it\u2019s actually during Q3 that SA Law receives the most calls for assistance. Fear not, for we more than identify with this phenomenon. Returning to work after an invigorating summer holiday can be far more motivational than trudging back to work on that first cold Monday morning of the New Year!\nFor me this has always been the best of year time to see if there is anything else we can do to improve the plans we already have in place. The aim is to take a snapshot of the business and look at it from as many different perspectives we can think of. We also take into account what is likely to happen inside the business over the coming 12 \u2013 18 months, and what might happen externally in the market, the economy, and in politics.\nThis step back from the day-to-day is also an opportunity to let your imagination run a little wild. It isn\u2019t meant to result in any huge tangential changes in strategy, but it usually results in a few great ideas you may not have thought of while trying to meet pre-existing objectives. Furthermore, this exercise can also lead to improvements in many other aspects of the organisation, from streamlining processes to enhancing employee wellbeing.\nSo, let\u2019s say you have stepped back and come up with an idea or two. Here\u2019s how to go about incorporating them into your next 12-month business strategy.\nDefine the new idea clearly\nBuild a comprehensive understanding of each idea, which means a good deep-dive. Is it a new product or service offering, or is it the improvement or expansion of something you already provide? Will it be targeted at your existing customer base, or is it something that lets you move into another market?\nNext, consider what would be required to bring the idea to life. Is there room in your existing strategy to achieve it to an adequate degree of success? What would you need to do if there isn\u2019t?\nThese are some of the key questions to ask yourself so you can arrive at a clear understanding about what you intend to achieve, which enables you to assess the idea for its merits. Is it something that can be reasonably achieved during the next financial year? Is it something that has merit, but requires a longer-term strategy? Or is it a nice idea, but not for you?\nWhen exploring ideas, never lose sight of the brand. Your business is successful because of a unique set of parameters that contribute to the way your customers understand and trust you, so don\u2019t introduce anything that might undermine that.\nUnderstanding is about logic. If Lea & Perrins suddenly decided to introduce a line of inflatable paddling pools alongside its time-honoured Worcestershire Sauce, customers would likely question the logic of it in the context of their brand. The result would almost certainly be a loss of reputation. That said, if your brand is more about an idea than any specific product or service (e.g. easy.com), then you have a much freer reign over what you can introduce.\nMaintaining trust means making sure that nothing you intend to do is going to weaken the quality, reliability or delivery of your core offering. Much of that is down to how you plan.\nDefine the journey to market\nThe best amendments or additions to a pre-existing strategy are those that offer great return on investment with as little disruption to your existing business plan as possible. That doesn\u2019t necessarily mean restricting yourself to small ideas though. If you have the capital, then outsourcing could let you take advantage of an idea that perhaps couldn\u2019t be resourced internally.\nPlan carefully, in as much detail as possible, including the reasonable timescales and milestones you intend to work to. As we are still in the blue-sky thinking mode, you also get to test out a number of different scenarios about how you could apply resources.\nAs the objective is to achieve additional profitability within the financial year, short-term targets must be managed carefully. Therefore, you need a manager or co-ordinator who is capable of driving them forward.\nIf improving or expanding on an existing product or service, then this is likely to be the current person in charge. However, consider the need to give them further support if it means a greatly increased workload. This may be an excellent opportunity to draw in someone from another part of the business that has spare capacity.\nIf embarking on a new project, then appoint someone who can meet the challenge, particularly if it means entering unfamiliar or even uncharted territory. Choose a robust individual who can improvise as they go along.\nNaturally, you will need the help of other employees to achieve your idea, so communication is essential.\nMake sure everyone who might be affected by the initiative understands the plan for achieving it, and be extremely generous when you think about who that might encompass. If employees suddenly discover new things are happening from peers rather than management, they may begin to think that they aren\u2019t important enough to be told officially. Worse still, they may start to worry about changes in strategy impacting their job. It may also cause confusion about the primary objectives of the organisation. \u201cAre we still on the old plan or has everything changed?\u201d\nWith the idea defined, planned and provisionally staffed, you arrive at the final decision gate: is it a green light or not? If it is, then make your announcement to the business, launch the strategy, and the very best of luck!\nMegatrends & your business\nSA Law presents an event to help you understand the global changes that are shaping your business.\nWhat to do for an employee who is winding down for retirement?\nPartner Keely Rushmore examines the best practice for employers when it comes to the needs of an ageing workforce.",

        "raw_content": "Al-Bayt, (Arabic for \u201cthe house\u201d or \u201chome\u201d), is a logo I designed for an Arab Cultural Center that was slated to open in Washington DC as an educational and cross-cultural hub between the Arab world and the US. Arabic letters connect from left to right when forming words and, to me, this made Arabic script some of the more versatile and fun to play around with when creating brands and logos. At first, I took a literal approach to the word, designing a logo that was shaped like a domed home with the Arabic \u201cAL\u201d letters forming a minaret. However, we found that was too close in semblance to a mosque; while that is a common image and token from the region, it did not quite accurately represent the wider pan-Arab voice and message the center wished to convey. Changing directions, I looked at the bigger picture of what Al-Bayt as a cultural center would represent and provide attendees. Discerning that the center looked largely to take the audience on a metaphorical journey into the Arab world; \u2018crossing oceans\u201d and divides between the East and West; I looked at the traditional sailing vessels from the region and referenced the shape and journey of a traditional Dhow sailboat. Without being too literal, I elongated and stretched the cursive form, making the body more fluid referencing ocean waves and slightly mimicking the shape of a bellowing mast with the first two Arabic \u201cAL\u201d letters of the logo.",

        "raw_content": "Fulfilling my Archaeologist Dreams: An Unforgettable Autumn in Egypt at the Site of Memphis, Egypt\u2019s Ancient Capital\nSome of you might know that I\u2019ve spent the past three months in Egypt, living literally next door to the pyramids of Giza and working about an hour\u2019s drive away at the site of ancient Egypt\u2019s first capital city, Memphis (now partially covered by the modern town of Mit Rahina).\nI live around the corner from the #pyramidsofgiza !! Don't think it'll be possible to get tired of this incredible sight/site #giza #Egypt #ilovethisplace\nA post shared by Sara Perry (@archaeologistsp) on Nov 15, 2015 at 2:17pm PST\nUntil just two days ago, we weren\u2019t able to speak in detail to the wider public about the nature of the project owing to permissions, but I\u2019m now so pleased to say that my collaborators, Ancient Egypt Research Associates (AERA), have just published our first press release:\nand our generous primary funder, USAID, has used social media several times over the Autumn to hint at our activities:\nThere\u2019s so much to say about the programme that we are running and the incredible history of the site of Memphis (it was the political and religious centre of pharaonic Egypt for thousands of years, the pyramids are part of its cemetery complex, it is the home of the Apis House (the only site of its kind! \u2026where bulls were mummified as part of an elaborate ritual process), Alexander the Great sacrificed to the Apis bull and was crowned king here; it was long a tourist and pilgrimage destination for everyone from ancient Romans to Greek philosophers to antiquarian travellers, and it was \u2018lost\u2019 \u2013 no one could quite locate its remains \u2013 until just two centuries ago.\nI\u2019ll save more of the details for our collaborators to tell you about when we launch our webpages and social media in the future. In the meantime, if you\u2019re keen for views on ancient Memphis, check out this impressive Facebook page run independently by one of AERA\u2019s alumni. Also, make sure to learn more about AERA\u2019s fabulous and long-standing research and teaching efforts in Egypt.\nFor now, I just want to briefly mention the fieldschools that we\u2019re leading, which form one of the principal outputs of the project (and are a new addition to AERA\u2019s portfolio). Herein, we are training Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities inspectors and related Egyptology and museums professionals in archaeological site management, heritage interpretation, tourism development and community engagement. This training is an applied programme, delivered via a combination of lectures, classroom-based production, and on-the-ground development of Memphis as a tourist destination (including construction of a walking trail/interpretative route around eight of Memphis\u2019 principal sites). Just yesterday, at the Ministry of Antiquities headquarters in the Zamalek district of Cairo, we celebrated the graduation of our first 32 Egyptian trainees and 4 Egyptian supervisors, who work at key heritage and cultural locations around the country. I was excited to see that one student, the excellent Shaimaa Magdi, invited her journalist friend to the event, so you can catch some of the diploma ceremony on YouTube:\nand if you read Arabic, you can learn more about it all here.\nWhat\u2019s been the most special aspect of this project for me? Definitely my contact with Shaimaa and the many other Egyptians who\u2019ve studied with me, my small team from York, and AERA. These students are truly the most wonderful human beings that I\u2019ve ever encountered. They have touched me in a way that I couldn\u2019t have fathomed, and I feel like my faith in the fundamental goodness of humanity has been affirmed by my interactions with them. I can\u2019t say enough how much happiness, laughter, kindness and warmth they\u2019ve shared with me. I looked forward to every day of teaching them because they made me feel hopeful for the future, and they made our many challenges seem slim and even manageable because of their individual and collective good spirit and generosity. On a personal level, then, I\u2019ve been changed by them.\nFieldschool 1 and 2 at Memphis. Photo by Amel Eweida.\nBut as I teacher I\u2019ve been changed too. This is a direct result of my students\u2019, AERA\u2019s, and York\u2019s shared eagerness to learn together, to revise and edit and rethink our outputs together, to challenge common understandings of heritage management, to work six days a week, at least 9 hours a day (and, on many days, up to 12 or more hours per day!!) on panels and guidebooks and websites and more, and to create something completely new out of a very difficult archaeological site that\u2019s been virtually forgotten. It has been inspiring, and it\u2019s profoundly altered my professional practice.\nMyself and Amina, one of the graduates of our first fieldschool, on graduation day \u2013 Tuesday, 15 December 2015. Photo by Ian Kirkpatrick.\nMoreover, often on a daily basis, I\u2019ve received the most touching feedback from the students \u2013 the kind of feedback that makes you cry with joy \u2013 that reaches right to your soul \u2013 that warms your heart and leaves you feeling empowered and capable of changing the world. I\u2019ve asked permission from one of my students, the exceptional Sara Komy, to quote her words, because I would be lying if I said that the project wasn\u2019t full of challenges, but it is the highs that come from these comments that instantly boost your confidence and motivate you in the face of difficulties:\nThis message of Sara\u2019s is just one of a series that have touched my heart, given me strength, and further heightened my deep love for Egypt. As you can imagine, even though I only flew home yesterday, I miss my students tremendously. Everyone should be so lucky to meet people who make you feel as if, together, you can genuinely transform the course of history and construct a better world.\nI\u2019ll leave you with a couple more images of all of the happy times that we\u2019ve had together (and there have been many!).\nSinging together and enjoying the bus trip back from site with some of fieldschool 1.\nOne of our supervisors takes an extra candy while on a break from touring Hathor Temple and Apis House at Memphis.

I\u2019m off now to catch up on everything I\u2019ve missed here in York!\nTagged Egypt, field school, fieldwork, heritage, Memphis, teaching, tourism\nFieldwork, Interpretation and Stretching our Conception of Heritage Studies\nMay 11, 2014 Sara Perry1 Comment\nDetail of a storyboard produced by a team of heritage practice students at the University of York\nMy 10-week heritage fieldschool for first-year undergraduates was launched at the end of April, and since then, we\u2019ve been engrossed in its many elements, which (like all field training programmes) entail a major commitment of time and energy: more than 32 hours per week of making, doing, learning, revising, accounting and critiquing. As per last year, I designed the course to provide students with the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the full spectrum of heritage practice, from excavation and recording through interpretation, collections handling, audio-visual production, museological display and curation, to archiving, promotion, audience evaluation, reporting and critical self-reflection. The structure is similar to that from 2013 (read more here), but it\u2019s benefited from a massive amount of feedback offered by the students themselves, by our many collaborators, and by generous members of the public and readers of this blog.\nThe students are documenting their process on group blogs, which you can access through the links below.\nHead over Heels into Heritage: http://headingintoheritage.blogspot.co.uk/\nMoving Forward into the Past: http://movingforward-past.blogspot.co.uk/\nI continue to be amazed by the amount that can be achieved in such a short timeframe, and by the phenomenal progress demonstrated by these students who, just a few weeks ago, had virtually no experience with planning interpretative content, nor with audio-visual production and editing, archival research, blogging, presenting to non-academic audiences, or curation. We invite others to follow along as the next 7 weeks of their training unfurl and they evolve into filmmakers, exhibition designers, audience evaluators, promoters, event organisers, and digital media technicians. I\u2019m really proud of their accomplishments, and I hope you might consider offering your constructive input on their outputs and experiences as we move forward.\nThis year\u2019s fieldschool is particularly interesting for me, as it coincides with a larger personal research project (part of my PGCAP certification) that I\u2019m doing on the efficacy of digitally-mediated pedagogy. I\u2019ll be presenting on that research several times over the next couple of months, including at the Google Apps for Education (European User Group) conference, and the York Learning and Teaching Conference (please come along \u2013 there are some amazing presenters featuring at these events), and I\u2019ll hopefully\u2014fingers crossed\u2014also be publishing some aspects of it in an exciting forthcoming issue of Internet Archaeology (more details soon).\nIn preparation for these outputs, I\u2019ve been conducting 30-60 minute interviews with my undergraduate and Master\u2019s students who\u2019ve kindly agreed to give me critical feedback on their experiences of my courses. Honestly, I was overwhelmed by the enthusiastic response that I received from everyone when I emailed to ask for their time\u2014nearly 100% consented to being interviewed, meaning that I\u2019m now in the course of conducting these interviews and processing thousands of minutes of associated qualitative data. I\u2019m very indebted to my students because they\u2019ve offered me much food for thought\u2014and some needed positive reinforcement too. Perhaps the most revelatory of these interviews so far have come from last year\u2019s cohort of fieldwork students, because I can reflect immediately on the relationship between their experiences and my current cohort\u2019s evolving experiences.\nI\u2019ll quote here from one such interview:\nI think it really did [have an impact on my understanding of heritage]\u2026Before, all year, we were learning a lot of the background of archaeology which was really literature based, so I think we all really enjoyed the module because you had the chance to be creative and think outside the box of what heritage and archaeology have been built up for you to be\u2026[And] it gave me more confidence\u2026gave me confidence to apply for internships, which I wouldn\u2019t have done otherwise\u2026[And] we produced something at the end which we were all really proud of\u2026And also I talked to people outside our sphere of the degree course\u2026What was great about it [the module] is that we were given the task\u2026and we just ran with it. It was great to be given the opportunity to do what we wanted with it, and I think that definitely gives you ideas for the future\u2026Definitely I take different creative experiences from it, and I\u2019d use the ideas in the future\u2026\nI engage with digital media in my teaching because I think they have the potential to transform the research that we do, as well as our fundamental conceptions of the nature of archaeology and heritage studies themselves. These media can facilitate (and, of course, hinder) the pedagogical experience, but my concern is not so much their impact on teaching itself as the effect they can have on how my students practice, interpret, and create our field of enquiry in the future. If they leave the classroom feeling enabled, equipped and confident to test out these tools in different contexts, then I feel like I\u2019ve made a constructive contribution to their professional trajectories\u2014and to the profession itself.\nScholarly discussion of the creativity that is made possible through digital media work is recognised within educational (e.g., see Smith and Burrell 2013), media studies (e.g., see Gauntlett 2012; Losh 2012) and archaeological (e.g., see Morgan and Eve 2012; Richardson 2013) circles, but arguably among the latter the conversation is primarily driven by professionals speaking to other professionals or to the interested public, without the benefit of extensive and reflective student input. The digital humanities literature on \u2018critical making\u2019 or \u2018building\u2019 as a form of scholarship and training is more advanced (e.g., Ramsay and Rockwell 2012; Ratto 2011), and I am hopeful that my research (alongside the work of, for example, Shawn Graham, Terry Brock and Lynne Goldstein, among others) will offer an avenue to insert archaeology into that more substantial and influential line of thinking. At the same time, I am also hopeful that this work will contribute to and challenge the existing discourse on field schools/field work in (and beyond) archaeology, recognising the scope that creative, public, digital production has for narrowing the gap between theory and practice, and simultaneously empowering students.\nI\u2019ve much more to say on this topic, but I\u2019ll save it for my talks and forthcoming publication! I\u2019ll end by expressing my great thanks to all those who are supporting the students on this year\u2019s heritage fieldschool, including my fantastic teaching assistants Claire Price and Katrina Foxton; the unparalleled team at the Yorkshire Museum \u2013 especially Natalie McCaul, Martin Fell and Mike Linstead; filmmaker Gavin Repton; my colleagues on the Star Carr Project; and the many experts who\u2019ve taught the students either in person, via Skype, or by otherwise sharing resources, opinions and good practice \u2013 including Colleen Morgan, Simon Davis, Tom Smith, Sophie Norton, Teri Brewer, Joe Tong, Tara-Jane Sutcliffe, Don Henson, Angela Piccini, and Nicole Beale.\nAs anyone who does fieldwork knows, our investment is long, intense, and filled with highs and lows and innumerable blunders and miscalculations; yet the outcomes are deeply rewarding because of the friendships, creative breakthroughs, and collective \u2018ah-ha\u2019 moments that are generated through its collaborative, experimental underpinnings.

Do you think that you could survive among all his ghosts?\nI don\u2019t think I would. There is a level of discipline, intelligence, and determination required to survive in such a horrific place. I don\u2019t think I have it, and I wonder, sometimes, if our heroes have as much of it as we think they do.\nYou see, this is the real dilemma that faces me, this and the realization that I cannot make their choices for them. Marcus and Alex have as much free will as you and I do. Once I begin to write, you see, the characters speak and act on their own.\nThe fact that Marcus, or even young Alex, might not survive an encounter shakes me to my core. And it is a possibility you and I need to accept\u2014one we need to emotionally prepare for.\nAnd that\u2019s because the Village, as we all know, is not only a dangerous place, but it\u2019s getting worse every new addition.\nDr. Worthe\u2019s buildings are horrific, and another structure is on its way even as you read this.\nThis new building is a rough, little place where a dark resident lurks. The ghost, I confess, is a sadist, one who revels in the agony of others.\nThis particular ghost is not only unpleasant, it comes from a bit of horror in my own past.\nIt\u2019s time now, don\u2019t you think, to see our friends again; to watch and suffer with Marcus and Alex as they meet the newest ghost?\nOf course, it is.

Studies show that promoting local beauty, while reducing visual clutter and urban blight, will help cut crime, boost the local economy, improve public health and increase tourism. Scenic Jacksonville serves as a watchdog, advocacy group with the goal of protecting and improving Jacksonville's natural and built environment and the city's distinctive character and beauty, with the ultimate goal of making it a more prosperous, successful city.\nScenic Jacksonville believes that when residents, non-profits and business owners work together to clean and beautify the city, this will attract new residents, draw tourism, and sustain our local economy. Therefore, we work with citizens and local organizations to enhance landscapes and streetscapes, safeguard historical and cultural resources, protect scenic approaches, and see that laws are passed and enforced to protect the aesthetic values.\nFriends of Scenic Jacksonville care deeply about the quality of life in Jacksonville and support Scenic America\u2019s Seven Principles for Scenic Conservation. We are an all-volunteer group of people working to preserve and enhance our city's scenic beauty. We continually work with concerned citizens to help reduce visual clutter in the city, and we believe that beauty is good for business.\nScenic Jacksonville, Inc combined two organizations which added historic amendments to the Jacksonville City Charter through the initiative and referendum process. Capsigns was formed in 1987, to control the proliferation of offsite billboards, and voters overwhelmingly passed a Charter Amendment to ban off-site commercial billboards and remove all billboards adjacent to city streets within five years. As a result of our efforts, well over 1000 billboards have been removed from city streets and highways. In 1991, Scenic Jacksonville received the Robert Rodale National Environmental Achievement Award for Beautification.\nAs Citizens for Tree Preservation, the organization led a successful citizens' initiative in 2000 to preserve Jacksonville's tree canopy to again amend the City Charter, establishing minimum standards for tree mitigation during development. The measure passed in all precincts with a landslide 75% voter approval. The organization and the Petitioners Committee were presented with the 1000 Friends of Florida's state-wide Community Steward Award at its 2002 awards ceremony in the state capitol.\nBeginning in 2010, Scenic Jacksonville was engaged in litigation protecting the 1987 Charter Amendment and pursuing enforcement of past settlement agreements. New settlement agreements in those cases were concluded at the end of 2014.",

He focuses on the role that science and scientists played in both defining the acid rain problem as one worthy of policy consideration and in framing the acid rain issue in a way that would prompt action to reduce pollution levels.\nA major concern of Alm's study are the problems scientists have in connecting to the policy side of environmental debates. He provides in-depth exchanges from the floor of Congress between scientists and policy makers as they debated the merits of reducing acid rain pollution. These exchanges provide special insight into the difficulty that scientists have in communicating the findings of their research to policy makers and the public. In addition, he uses in-depth interviews with the acid-rain scientists themselves to delineate the way they perceive how science is and ought to be linked to the policy world. Finally, Alm looks at the different perspectives offered by United States scientists versus Canadian scientists and natural scientists versus social scientists, and he examines the importance and implications of these differences to the future of environmental policy making in the United States.\nAlm, Leslie R., \"Crossing Borders, Crossing Boundaries: The Role of Scientists in the U.S.-Canadian Acid Rain Debate\" (2000).

        "raw_content": "What Plants Live in the Canopy Layer?\nSymbiotic Relationships in the Rain Forest\nBy Bert Markgraf; Updated August 20, 2018\nBecause the rain forest is a very diverse habitat, it contains many different species of plants and animals in close proximity to each other. These species often have complex relationships, many of which are beneficial to the participants. Such relationships are called symbiotic or mutualistic. In mutualism examples, mammals, birds, reptiles and insects may interact with plants and with each other to help with food, reproduction or to protect against predators. To survive in the rain forest, it is often useful to have some help from a species with which you are not competing.\nSymbiotic relationships in the rainforest are interactions between species in which the partners benefit. Symbiotic relationships are often broad, such as pollination of plants by insects in return for nectar. They may also involve just two species with specific benefits, or one species with several relationships in a complex series of interactions.\nTypes of Symbiotic Relationships\nMany symbiotic relationships in the rainforest are broad, across several species, such as when insects pollinate plants and get pollen or nectar as food in return. Other symbiotic relationships only involve two species and are unique. For example certain rain forest caterpillars secrete a sweet chemical on their backs that a specific species of ant will eat. In return, the ants will protect the caterpillars.\nSome organisms rely on several different relationships with different species, receiving and producing benefits in each one. For example, a Brazil nut tree relies on the orchid bees for pollination and attracts them with nectar. The tough seed pods can only be opened by a ground-dwelling rodent called an agouti that eats some of the nuts and buries others, some of which eventually become new Brazil nut trees.\nExamples of Mutualism in Tropical Rainforest Ecosystems\nThe complex web of interactions among the species of the rain forest often involves insects, plants and primitive organisms such as fungi. Ants are especially likely to form various symbiotic relationships. For example, the leaf cutter ant has symbiotic relationships with fungi that they grow as food.\nThe leaf cutter ants cut small pieces off leaves in the jungle and take them underground into their tunnels. They create small chambers where they store the leaf cuttings. Fungus grows on the leaves and the ants use bits of the fungus to feed their young. Through the symbiotic relationship, both the fungus and the young ants get fed.\nA chocolate tree has a much more complicated series of symbiotic relationships with a variety of other species, providing a complex example of mutualism in the tropical rainforest. To ensure pollination, the chocolate tree produces tiny buds that die and rot. These are ideal homes for the midges that it needs to pollinate its flowers. Once the flowers are pollinated, they grow into large, brightly-colored seed pods. The seed pods are filled with a delicious, fleshy pulp and bitter seeds. With these pods, the chocolate tree attracts monkeys and squirrels that eat the pods but spit out the bitter seeds, in another symbiotic relationship. The chocolate tree relies on this relationship to scatter its seeds so more chocolate trees can grow.\nA more complex three-way arrangement is the infestation of chocolate trees with mealy bugs. The bugs don't harm the chocolate tree but the tree doesn't receive any direct benefit either. The mealy bugs are raised and taken care of by black ants that eat the waste honeydew the mealy bugs produce. In their own symbiotic relationship, the black ants keep other insects away from the mealy bugs, and as a side benefit, keep away other insects that could harm the chocolate tree.\nThe chocolate tree has one more symbiotic relationship down by its roots. A fungus grows on the roots and receives its nourishment from the tree. The chocolate tree in turn is able to absorb nutrients from the soil more effectively due to the presence of the fungus. Symbiotic relationships are not limited to rain forests and even humans have symbiotic relationships with domesticated animals and plants. In the rain forest, there are more such interactions and very complex ones because there are so many different species in a small space.\nArizona State University: Revealing the Rain Forest\nUniversity of Wisconsin at La Crosse: The Chocolate Tree\nHow Do Insects Pollinate Flowers?\nWhat do Butterflies do for the Environment?\nPlants in the Canopy Layer of the Rainforest\nMarkgraf, Bert. \"Symbiotic Relationships in the Rain Forest.\" Sciencing, https://sciencing.com/symbiotic-relationships-rain-forest-8538237.html. 20 August 2018.\nMarkgraf, Bert.

I find my interests are shaped by the concerns and issues of the time; this is the thread that ties together work which might otherwise seem an odd juxtaposition. Modern beauty pageants and the spread of ancient Olmec society, the shortcomings of rational choice theory and the history of Belizean cuisine, or moral talk about television and the global branding of bottled water. My work relates to and connects with topics like Commodity chains, Development, Political Economy, and Globalization; History, Narrative, and Power; Gender and Sexuality.\nI find nothing antithetical about doing both strongly scientific research and critical and interpretive anthropology. I have always worked hard to combat the polarizing discourse that has had a regrettable affect on our discipline. I continue to feel strongly that the combination of different approaches to understanding human experience is the greatest strength of anthropology.\nTeaching has always been an essential part of my intellectual life. I have been teaching at least one new course a year for as long as I can remember. Teaching fundamental undergraduate courses keeps me constantly thinking of new ways to connect anthropological knowledge and theory to the kinds of issues and topics that make students want to learn. I enjoy my undergraduate courses and have taught our core theory graduate proseminar, which has over the years produced an award-winning website on anthropological theory.\nAt the moment my major research interests are in food studies, particularly the history of food globalization. I continue to engage with work on climate change, mostly through participation in the sustainable consumption community, but also as a member of the AAA Task Force on Climate Change.

        "title": "Is it time to rubbish the term reseller? - Channel Asia Singapore",
        "raw_content": "Channel is at a crossroads and partners must make a choice\nJames Bergl (Datto)\nCredit: Datto\nRubbishing the term reseller - a controversial issue dominating channel conversations today.\nFor those that have flourished through hardware, maximised margin opportunities and relished the notion of resell, the idea of \"transforming\" - as vendor's like to put it - is unappealing.\nAnd perhaps they have a point, given hardware has been a lucrative market for many resellers in Singapore and the wider Asia Pacific region, laying the foundations for the future growth that many partners experience today.\nMoving away from this revenue stream would be akin to turning off the money tap for some.\nYet change is constant and innovation waits for no business, meaning the channel must keep pace or risk falling down the technology pecking order with customers.\nAccording to James Bergl - sales director of APAC at Datto - the time has arrived to \"stop calling yourself a reseller in Southeast Asia\".\n\"The first thing I noticed when entering the Southeast Asia market is that everyone calls themselves resellers or system integrators [SI] as opposed to managed service providers [MSPs] or service providers,\u201d said Sydney-based Bergl, who holds responsibility for regional sales.\n\"Southeast Asia is a diverse region but generally speaking the region is probably eight years behind where Australia is in regards to channel partner trends.\"\nSpeaking exclusively to Channel Asia, this trend is shifting according to Bergl, but is still a long way off with the exception of Singapore perhaps, who is ahead of the regional pack and more in sync with regions like Australia, Europe, and North America, where such a managed service model is more popular.\n\"I see the region at a turning point, particularly in Singapore,\u201d said Bergl, who explained why should channel partners stop calling themselves resellers. \"The main difference is that one is a non-value add.\n\"The other is a managed service or technology service provider and is more about delivering a service as opposed to a product. That service is typically going to be delivered on a monthly basis.\"\nThe managed services market is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years, reaching a global figure of US$257 billion by 2022, up from its 2017 value of US$152 billion, according to Research and Markets.\nThe Asia Pacific (APAC) region is expected to grow at the fastest rate among all other regions, signifying significant opportunities for Channel Partners in the coming years.\n\"I feel the next couple of years will be a tipping point and we are going to see a lot more managed service providers and technology service providers probably across Southeast Asia, but certainly in Singapore,\u201d said Bergl.\nMSPs are particularly popular among start-ups and SMEs that may not have the necessary capital expenditure to invest in their IT infrastructure.\nThis trend bodes well for MSPs looking for regional growth, as 98 per cent of enterprises in the APAC region fall under the SME, and employ 50 per cent of the region\u2019s workforce.\nFurthermore, Bergl said a managed service is a value-add, with reporting and monitoring built into the service from the start, without the addition of capital expense often required from a pure reseller.\n\"A one-off sale is always a race to the bottom in terms of the profit margin because you are just providing a product that competitors are matching and beating you on price,\u201d said Bergl. \"Channel partners should move to the concept of cloud solutions provider or technology solutions provider.\n\"These are the sort of business models that allow you to have an ongoing monthly engagement with customers and deliver ongoing monthly service and value as opposed to a one-off sale.\"\nBergl sees the move to a managed services accelerating in the region, with some of Datto\u2019s key partners moving to such a model.\nSolutions like Microsoft Office 365 are getting users used to such a delivery model and paying the operating expense for a monthly subscription, according to Bergl.\n\"Based on my feedback that while the system integrator is more inclined towards selling a one-off product because of the initial big cash injection, the end user is asking for a monthly subscription in the operating expense of their business,\u201d Bergl added.\nAs a channel only security vendor, Bergl said Datto \"never competes\" with channel partners and instead passes all sales leads directly through the vendor\u2019s ecosystem of providers.\nBergl sees the vendor\u2019s strategy for the regional channel as one of educating and facilitating, a strategy based on helping partners transition to a service model that delivers recurring revenue and offers a monthly service to the vendor\u2019s customers.\nRead more British retailer suffers second major breach in three years\n\"We consider this a journey as opposed to an immediate swap over to managed services,\u201d said Bergl. \"We see ourselves as MSP consultants. We want to help out channel partners transition their models.\n\"We can provide a platform that allows our partners to use white label tailored contents that our partners can imprint their logo on. We have a growing team based in Singapore to help our channel partners take our solution to market and generate recurring revenue for their business.\"\nFrom a technology perspective, it should come as no surprise that Datto sees security solutions as the most significant opportunity for channel partners in the year ahead.\nHowever, with the growing rate of cyber attacks and recurring natural disasters seen across the APAC region, such a view is not without merit.\nThe security vendor\u2019s principal offering is a back-up data recovery solution.\nOn the market front, the global data back-up and recovery market size is expected to grow from US$7.12 billion in 2017 to US$11.59 billion by 2022, according to Markets and Markets.\nAs with the growth in the managed services market, APAC is expected to be the fastest growing region globally.\nEnterprises are increasingly data-rich, and this trends will continue upwards in the years ahead, but in a disaster-prone region such as the Asia Pacific, the ability to protect and recover data in case of such a senary cannot be understated.\n\"Data has never been more important to a business,\u201d said Bergl. \"I do not see security as a product but rather as a bundled set of solutions.\n\"We are looking for the forward-thinking partner who is focused on selling solutions, not just products that typically have a recurring revenue division to their business or would like to have a recurring revenue division to their business.\n\"I think when customers see for themselves that the operational expense route is the correct one they will come on board that service delivery model.\"\nTags Managed ServicesDatto",

        "raw_content": "Living spiritually is all about letting go, but what a challenge it can be! We often hold on to our experiences, and this blocks the spiritual flow of life. These blockages create unhealthiness. They keep us from living fully, but we have the power to let them go.\nI have found that when I act separately from the universe by controlling, expecting, and even wanting things, I experience frustration and struggle. When I plan too much, I lose the spontaneity that makes life work.\nAs writer Guy Finley states, \u201cAnything you have to control controls you\u201d taking away your natural freedom. Control creates a false sense of security that doesn\u2019t satisfy the soul. And it actually wears you down. As teacher Christine Day says, \u201cThe effort and energy used to hold on are exhausting you.\u201d\nLetting go is the answer. But how do we do this? We have to feel what we\u2019ve been holding on to and then let it go from our beings. We release it and leave it behind.\nInstead of creating stress in the future, we can choose to honor ourselves. We can work with the universe instead of fighting it.\nI have noticed that when I simply experience life without holding on so tightly, everything seems to work out effortlessly. This became obvious to me as a new mother who couldn\u2019t do it all. I found that it was impossible to plan the day, but if I let go, everything fell into place. I found that when I stopped having expectations, things became more spectacular than I imagined.\nIt\u2019s ironic that we have more control over fulfilling lives when we let go of control. And when we let go of the weight of the past and future \u2013 with all their endless stories and definitions \u2013 we free ourselves immensely. Letting go of past wounds and emotions can be very difficult, but it affords immense healing. Forgiveness is the key, and it helps us to remove blame. It gives us clarity for our own sake. Forgiveness enables us to let go of the need to be right even if we were very wronged. It releases our hold on others and allows us to fully accept everyone, exactly as we are.\nI have noticed that the beauty in people becomes obvious when we let them go. By letting everything go, we rediscover our trust in the universe and in our deepest spiritual selves. Just thinking about this prompts me to ask, \u201cAm I willing to let go at any moment of all that I\u2019m clinging to?\u201d I have so much to let go of, and when I catch myself feeling tense, I try to remember how it was to be a child running freely outside, laughing, playing and interacting with other children, without a single expectation or obligation. I try to become undefined once again and open to the present moment, where the magic of life resides.\nLetting go is a vital part of the creative process. So often we hold onto what we create because it doesn\u2019t feel completely finished or \u201cperfect,\u201d and so we continue to trap it in our minds. When we are ready to give our work to the world, we must detach from it so that it can be received by others. This is a similar concept to giving one\u2019s dreams and problems up to God, for how can God help us with something if we are still holding onto it?\nLast night, I had a dream about letting go. I dreamt that I gathered people around a small and deep swimming pool that was half-filled with water. I stood with my back to the pool and took a long fall backwards into the depths as my strongest voice asserted \u201cLet Go!\u201d The observers applauded and I felt truly liberated. I want to carry this symbol of letting go with me walking forward into life.\nPosted in Present | Tagged acceptance, awakening consciousness, blockages, control, expectations, forgiveness, free, trust, vicious cycle | 7 Comments\non October 16, 2011 at 9:50 am | Reply Donna\nWonderful topic, Suzy. The simple, powerful, inspiring line you say \u201cLetting go is part of the creative process,\u201d is beautiful.\non October 16, 2011 at 11:13 am | Reply Christy\nthank you for these words, fear of letting personal work go can be paralyzing\u2026also reminds me of how much i\u2019ve learned about being flexible and forgiving tresspasses from my husband and daughter, two incredibly free spirits who have taught me how to move with the flow, to not hold back, to fully be a part of this wonderful life. your advice is so helpful and i thank God for your timely guidance!\nTo let go is most healing and enlightening, letting go is saying to ourselves may I allow spirit to guide my life. We human beings are constantly trying to hold on to the \u201cthings\u201d that our ego driven minds have created. These \u201cthings\u201d are not real, they are here then they are gone into the vastness of forever.\nThere is a saying in several of the religious communities that is a great thought for all human-beings. \u201cLet go and let God\u201d. We in some thought circles are here as we created ourselves. Be happy that you are here, living and experiencing this wonder \u201cMother Earth\u201d.\non October 16, 2011 at 1:56 pm | Reply suzy444\nThanks for all your beautiful comments guys!\non October 17, 2011 at 4:10 pm | Reply Conrad\nLove, Love, Love\u2026.. your spiritual writings! <3\nLet me know when your are ready to get these works published. I have a few connections.\non October 18, 2011 at 2:25 pm | Reply The Hawk\nYou relate a wonderful analogy of letting go and trusting in the outcome in your last paragraph. I, personally, find it very difficult to let go and detach from the outcome. As you state, forgiveness is the key, and so often that forgiveness needs to be for ourselves. Thanks for another inspiring Post.\nI love the way you say we often need to forgive ourselves. Thank you for reminding me of this, and for your wonderful comments.",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m an aging nerd with enthusiasm for creativity in all its forms.\nFrom Fiction Fierce\nFrom Kipp Poe\u2019s Blog\nFrom Random Musings\nFrom Sonya Clark\u2019s Blog\nI\u2019m the author of numerous traditionally published books, and I\u2019m currently published by Crossroad Press, which has brought out many of my original novels plus a couple of new books in Kindle and other e-book editions. All of my Kindle titles are here.\nMy first novel, Azarius, was published while I worked as a newspaper reporter, a job I held for eleven years. In the early days as a general assignment reporter, my shift was 1 p.m. to 10 p.m., so I wrote fiction in the early morning hours, completing most of my work from midnight until 2 a.m., ironically an appropriate time for dark fiction.\nWhile working as a reporter, I covered the crime beat at night and also wrote feature articles, religion news and conducted hundreds of celebrity interviews. I\u2019ve interviewed television stars such as Matt Leblanc, Jennifer Anniston, Gates McFadden, Raven Symone, Alex Haley, Shirley Chisholm and many others. I\u2019ve also covered speakers as diverse as Mother Teresa, Robert Ballard and Wendy Wasserstein.\nIn addition to fiction and non-fiction writing, I\u2019ve worked as a librarian and web content editor and marketing copywriter. I\u2019ve written print ads, news releases, public service announcements and worked as the clientside producer on a number of television commercials.\nIn 2010, I earned an MFA from Goddard College. I\u2019d wanted to pursue an MFA for a number of years and first considered in the 1980s but opted to see if I could get published on my own.\nSince earning my MFA, I have been teaching a college level course in horror, mystery and suspense. I now reside in Orlando, FL, after living in Louisiana and Texas.\nBesides books and short stories I\u2019ve also written audio dramas, comics and other scripted fiction. I\u2019ve also had books published under the name Michael August.\nWhy Sid is Alive?\nThe title for my website comes from a piece of anonymous graffiti that my buddy, Chicago author Wayne Allen Sallee, photographed in the course of his journeys in the 1990s. It always seemed like the perfect name for my activities.\nThe Sid is Alive message was scrawled on one of the front columns of Waverly Hills Sanitorum in Louisville, KY. Today this building is considered one of the most haunted attractions in America and one of the scariest places on earth.\nTours are currently available thanks to the Waverly Hills Historic Society.",

        "raw_content": "Fr. Raju's homily for September 6th\n23RD ORDINARY SUNDAY B\nIs 35:4-7; James 2:1-6; Mk 7:31-37\nGOD IS THE RAY OF HOPE\nFor ages together man was caught up amidst both individual and sociological problems. The world around them is day by day, becoming deaf and mute towards the existing problems and for the truth and justice.\nDay by day man is becoming deaf and mute towards the individual, family, and social values and morals. Man is unable to come out of these things, because he shelves himself with selfishness, greed, power politics, egoism etc.\nAmidst these circumstances common man ends up himself with frustration, disappointment and distress for none is there to neither listen nor concern of his life situation. It is in this situation of man, the promise of God in the first Reading leaves us with a ray of hope that God himself is our savior.\nWhen God becomes Savior there will be two prime effects.\nTwo fold infirmities i.e. deafness and dumbness are cured or removed.\nApart from the external infirmities, the internal infirmities of mind and heart are in three levels:\nPsychological level: we don\u2019t understand other\u2019s views, problems, life situations etc. and we are not ready to listen to whatever they want to say but cling to our own attitudes and preoccupied thoughts. An old man is talking to the family doctor. \"Doctor, I think my wife's going deaf.\" The doctor answers, \"Well, here's something you can try on her to test her hearing. Stand some distance away from her without facing her and ask her a question. If she doesn't answer, move a little closer and ask again. Keep repeating this until she answers. Then you'll be able to tell just how hard of hearing she really is.\" The man goes home and tries it out. He walks in the door and asks, \"Honey, what's for dinner?\" He doesn't hear an answer, so he moves closer to her. \"Honey, what's for dinner?\" Still he gets no answer. He repeats this several times, until he's standing just one foot away from her. Finally, she answers, \"For the eleventh time, I said we're having meat loaf!\"\nSpiritual level: we don\u2019t welcome and don\u2019t respond to any type of spiritual activities like Rosary services, Eucharistic Adorations and other popular devotions. On the other hand, even when we participate we don\u2019t reflect its effect in our lives.\nSociological level: we make ourselves an island being deaf and mute to others\u2019 concerns, needs etc.\nHere it is fitting to be noted that very often parents are mute to the children and children are deaf to the parents for several reasons.\nWhen man is healed of the above infirmities then there will be:\nA Drastic change in the Nature as narrated in the first reading:\nSprings in the desert;\nRivers in the land of death;\nLakes in the dry land\nIn other words the land that has no life will have life. That is to say: When the inner infirmities are healed, the life of man is filled with new life, new Spirit and new inspirations thereby life becomes beautiful.\nThis has been realized in the first phase through the King of Persia, when he allowed people of Israel to go back to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple of the Lord.\nIt has come to its completion in the second phase through Jesus Christ by his teachings, miracles and institutions of the Sacraments.\nWhen we observe the process of healing in today\u2019s Gospel we see:\nSeparation: As did with blind man we are separated from the from the existing situation world and brought to the Holy Mother Church. We are separated as the Church not as building but as the community, a Community that has care, love and concern for others.\nFor his own sacrifice even Jesus was lifted up from existing situation and died on the Cross.\nClosing the ears: We need to be deaf to the world, closing our ears as and when required, it is only then we can listen to the voice of the Lord.\nTouching the tongue with spat:\nFrom the mouth of Jesus it came down to dust and this combination enabled man to speak. Combination of our earthly elements with divine elements of Jesus, gives us eternal life in the form of Eucharist. The combination of our human nature and Jesus\u2019 divine nature as we receive Eucharist, we also derive the power to speak the truth and justice. It enables us to speak only what Jesus wants.\nIt is for this reason this sign is adopted in the Sacrament of Baptism.\nThe priest says: ephpheta, means be opened!\nThat is to open our hearts and minds to be attentive to the word of God both to listen and to proclaim.\nTherefore: let us not be deaf but listen to the Word of God and not be mute but speak of the same so as to build a new community of new life; of new ideas; of new values and of new vision. And there by BECOME a NEW HOPE TO THE WORLD.",

        "title": "Ceratonia siliqua - Some Magnetic Island Plants",
        "raw_content": "Ceratonia siliqua L. 1753\npronounced: ser-ah-TOH-nee-uh SIL-lih-kwah\ncommon names: Carob, Locust Bean, St John\u2019s Bread\nCeratonia is derived from the Greek \u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd, fruit of the carob (from \u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c2, a horn), referring to the seed pods; siliqua is Latin, a pod, husk. The word carob comes via Middle French from the Arabic kharrub. The \u2018locusts\u2019 eaten by John the Baptist may well have been carob seeds, hence the common name.\nThe carob is an evergreen tree cultivated in the Mediterranean region for its sugar-rich pods and gum-containing seeds. When growing in the wild, as it still does in eastern Mediterranean regions, it can grow into quite a large tree (up to about 15m), but cultivated trees are usually smaller. It has a broad hemispherical crown, a thick trunk with rough brown bark, and sturdy branches. There is an extensive root system, including a deep taproot.\ncarob beans\nThe leaves are alternate, pinnate (there may or may not be a terminal leaflet), and 10 \u2013 20 cm in length. The leaflets are dark green in colour, and have a very thick epidermis that contains large quantities of tannins.\nMost carob trees are dioecious, but some are hermaphroditic. The trees blossom in autumn, with numerous small flowers, spirally arranged along the axis of the inflorescence in catkin-like racemes borne on spurs from old wood. Some are even borne directly on the trunk. They are pollinated by both wind and insects. The male flowers smell like human semen.\nThe fruit is a pod that is elongated, compressed, straight or curved, and thickened at the sutures. They are between 10 and 30 cm long, 1.5 \u2013 3.5 cm broad, and up to 2 cm thick. They have a wrinkled surface that turns dark brown and leathery at maturation. They contain 5 \u2013 18 hard brown seeds embedded in a sweet thick pulpy substance. Fruits take a full year to develop and ripen. They eventually fall to the ground, and are eaten by various animals, including pigs, who disperse the seeds in their droppings.\nThe seed are remarkably similar in size, and are used as weights in eastern Mediterranean regions. the word \u201ccarat\" comes from the Arabic name of the seeds. The system was eventually standardized, and 1 carat was fixed at 0.2 gram.\nThe carob is a slow-growing tree, and may live for a hundred years, beginning to fruit after 6 or 7 years. It is drought-hardy, but in areas of low rainfall must be irrigated for commercial production. The trees are dew-sensitive, and can be grown only in areas where there are fewer than 220 dew nights a year. Although the trees are resistant to termites, heat and fire, they will not withstand strong winds or waterlogged conditions.\nCarob products used by humans come from the dried, and sometimes roasted, pod. which is crushed to make a sort of flour. The pods are mildly sweet on their own, and are used in powdered, chip or syrup form as an ingredient in cakes and biscuits, and as a chocolate substitute. Drinks made from the crushed pods are traditionally imbibed during Ramadan.\nCommercially, the most important product of the tree is locust bean gum, a thickening agent used in the food industry. It is used extensively in canned pet food to get the jellied texture.\nThe timber makes a very good fuel. It is also used for ornamental work or furniture making. The wood has an extremely wavy grain that makes it resistant to splitting, so it is often used as chopping blocks for splitting wood.\nPhotographed in a garden in Birt Street, Picnic Bay, 2018",

Bookmark the permalink.\n8 Responses to The Mississippi River \u2013 My Confidante\nI too miss the river at Cape it feels like an old friend or wise elder. It always seems to be willing to listen and then comment when you have shared you burden with it. Good to see you writing again.\nThanks for your encouragement Terry.\nStill living by the river, just a little more north in St. Louis, I can\u2019t imagine not being near that big, flowing body of water. Living totally land-locked would feel very strange to me. It is comforting to be a part of the rich history of the Mississippi River and the stories it has to tell.\nI too, spent years not understanding why a person I cared for so much (met at 11 years old) could not give back those same feelings. We spent many days and hours together, but I never got from him the same type of feelings that I had. Now, a much older and wiser me understands\u2014-he was gay. As young people of our generation, I didn\u2019t understand it then and, I don\u2019t think, neither did he. But, all the signs were there. I just didn\u2019t recognize them. Wish I could speak to him now and tell him that I do understand that he was a very good friend to me, which was all that he could be.\nThanks for sharing, Carole. I am land-locked now & it just doesn\u2019t feel right even after almost 50 yrs!\nanolas says:\nDarla, I lived a block up from the old bridge on Lorimer. I loved that river and still get excited every time I see it. Before I retired, I worked in the Convention Div. of the American Veteriarian Medical Assoc., which held it\u2019s conventions across the country. So I was privileged to stay at the mouth of the river in Minneapolis, and a few years later at the end in New Orleans. My hotel room faced the river and every morning I thought, \u201cjust a day or so ago this same water was passing by Cape.\u201d\nThank you for your comment. It is simply amazing the effect the river has on those who grew up near it.\nI stopped for a night in Cape Girardeau on my way down south. The Cape is a town of great character. I also have a love for a river, the Kankakee. It is a comforting to sit and listen to her voice, wade her riffles, and see her power. She has been my safe haven over many years.\nThanks for your words, Gene. I have been gone from Cape for many years but it is still so special in my heart, especially the area along the river. I\u2019m glad you have had the same kind of experience with the Kankakee River; it calms the mind and the soul.",

        "raw_content": "Best Schools \u2013 Resources To Help You Find The Ideal School For Your Kids\nIf you are looking for the best schools for your children, you have several resources to check out. Whether you plan to send your kids to a public, private, or charter school, you should take a look at the ratings and reviews given to local options. Find out where to learn the information you need in order to make a good decision.\nYou should first talk to other parents in your area and find out where they send their children. Ask them if they are happy with their choice, and if so, why, Most parents have a few things they like about their child\u2019s school, and a few things they would change if possible. Get to know all of the details, and then ask if they would recommend their child\u2019s school overall. You can also ask your kids to find out from their friends what the best schools are, since they have likely heard both rumors and facts from others in your city. All the information you gather will help you make a decision, so do not count anything out.\nYou should also check official ratings to find out the best schools. There are many magazines and websites that focus on ranking several of the best educational institutions at all grade levels. Rankings can give you a good idea of where each school stands according to the experts, but you should also find out why exactly each educational institution received its rank. Make sure the top programs and most impressive details apply to your kids, since otherwise you may end up picking the wrong option for your children. Just because a school is the top ranked for most students does not mean it is the ideal pick for your family.\nFinally, you should find out for yourself why the best schools are so highly ranked. Schedule a campus tour so you can get a close look at the property. This also allows you to direct your questions to the tour guide so you can get immediate answers. For most parents, campus tours are enlightening, especially when the kids are brought along to offer their first impression and ask their own questions.\nYou want your kids to not only get a good education, but also be happy. Finding out about the best schools can help you achieve this goal, and these tips can help you make a decision. So start talking to friends, reading the ratings from websites and magazines, and setting up campus tours as soon as possible.",

        "title": "Alex Rodriguez to play for Yankees while he appeals impending MLB suspension",
        "raw_content": "Alex Rodriguez to play for Yankees while he appeals impending MLB suspension\nJeff Passan and Tim Brown\nYahoo! Sports August 5, 2013, 12:42 AM GMT\nAlex Rodriguez is expected to play for the New York Yankees on Monday despite Major League Baseball's plans to suspend him for more than 200 games earlier in the day, the first joust in what could be a long, drawn-out battle over the beleaguered star's future in the sport, sources told Yahoo! Sports on Sunday night.\nRodriguez plans on appealing MLB's suspension through the 2014 season for his role in the Biogenesis scandal, allowing him to play immediately. After long discussions to suspend Rodriguez using the collective-bargaining agreement, which would have kept the 38-year-old off the field immediately, MLB late Sunday was leaning toward using the joint drug agreement, which permits a stay of the suspension pending appeal. While commissioner Bud Selig would prefer to keep Rodriguez off the field, his use of the CBA as the primary reason could be seen as running afoul of the intentions of the JDA and thus is unlikely to be used.\nRodriguez flew to Chicago on Sunday prepared to play his first game since offseason hip surgery, and Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he expected him in the lineup against the White Sox on Monday night despite the expected 214-game penalty, which would be the longest non-lifetime suspension in baseball history.\nMLB will announce Rodriguez's suspension, along with about a dozen others, on Monday afternoon. The MLB Players Association has yet to send plea agreements from most of the players expected to take penalties of 50 games for receiving performance-enhancing drugs from Biogenesis, the south Florida wellness clinic that allegedly served as a doping nerve center for Rodriguez, suspended Milwaukee Brewers star Ryan Braun and other major league starters, including Texas outfielder Nelson Cruz, Detroit shortstop Jhonny Peralta and San Diego shortstop Everth Cabrera.\nDespite evidence from Biogenesis owner Anthony Bosch that shows Rodriguez used PEDs consistently over a three-year period, the highest-paid player in American sports refused to strike a deal with MLB, choosing instead to get his suspension overturned or reduced via arbitration. During negotiations, Rodriguez asked to be treated as a first-time offender, which under baseball's drug agreement equals a 50-game suspension. Because MLB gathered evidence of Rodriguez tampering with its investigation into Biogenesis, the league pursued far more severe discipline, arguing that because Rodriguez's violations were non-analytical positives \u2013 none of his urine tests triggered positives \u2013 they were not subject to typical discipline.\n[Related: Alex Rodriguez only concerned about getting his money]\nIt sets up a fascinating dynamic in which the league could again face an arbitration case against lawyer David Cornwell, who is representing Rodriguez. He was the lead attorney for Braun's case after a test found synthetic testosterone in his urine. The arbitrator, Shyam Das, threw out a 50-game suspension because of chain-of-custody issues in the handling of Braun's sample.\nThe negotiations between Rodriguez's camp and the league broke down Saturday when MLB refused to meet with Rodriguez a day after he referred obliquely to \"people [who] are finding creative ways to cancel [my] contract.\" According to sources, Rodriguez's camp contacted the players' union Saturday morning in the hopes it could arrange a meeting with MLB officials. Rodriguez's people, according to the same sources, also sought to meet directly with Yankees officials, possibly in an effort to strike a financial settlement.\nMLB apparently told the union the time for negotiation had passed and that the league intended to announce discipline for a dozen players on Monday, including some whose names have not been made public.\nIf the suspension is upheld through arbitration \u2013 sources expect the case to be heard sometime within the next month \u2013 Rodriguez would lose more than $30 million of the $95 million due him through 2017. Were new arbitrator Frederic Horowitz to uphold the full 214-game penalty, sources said, Rodriguez's penalty would extend into 2015 and lead up to his 40th birthday.\nRodriguez had met previously with MLB investigators and, according to a source, refused to answer their questions. On Friday night in Trenton, where he is rehabbing a quadriceps injury, Rodriguez hit a long home run and then implied he would not give up the fight against MLB or the Yankees. He appeared most concerned with saving as much of his contract as he could, against what he seems to believe is an effort by the Yankees to be rid of him and the largest deal in team sports history.\n\"I think that's the pink elephant in the room,\" Rodriguez told reporters in Trenton. \"I think we all agree that we want to get rid of PEDs. That's a must. I think all the players feel that way. But when all the stuff is going on in the background and people are finding creative ways to cancel your contract, I think that's concerning for me. It's concerning for present [players] and it should be concerning for future players as well. There is a process. \u2026 I'm going to keep fighting.\"\n\u2022 Two Rockies minor leaguers charged with rape\n\u2022 Must watch: J.B.

        "title": "What\u2019s the Best Way to Diversify Your Portfolio? | Sprout@Beanstox",
        "raw_content": "Last week, we talked about the perils of allowing your investing strategy to be impacted by your emotions. Letting your emotions dictate your investing strategy often places you in a reactive pattern that can lead you to make decisions after the market has already responded to price fluctuations- this means you\u2019ll likely buy high and sell low. So, what should you do instead? By taking a proactive strategy and building a diversified portfolio, you\u2019ll incur fewer losses due to market movements.\nHere are some tips for building a diversified portfolio:\nInvesting is definitely an area of your life where you don\u2019t want to play favorites. You may have already been told that your investments should span different industries, asset classes, and geographic locations. The reason for this is that, historically speaking, it\u2019s unlikely for these subsections of the market to move in unison. Therefore, if you share the love and spread your investments over various subsections of the market, your portfolio will be protected from major volatility. For example, if you\u2019re invested in technology, industrials, and health care, and the healthcare sector experiences a downturn, your portfolio won\u2019t lose all its value because you still have investments in two other sectors.\nInvest in some ETFs\nOne easy way to diversify is to invest in ETFs (exchange traded funds). An ETF is a security that tracks an index, a commodity, bonds, or a basket of assets. Some ETFs, such as the SPDR DIA, which mirrors the Dow Jones Industrial Average, follow a benchmark index. An index is a collection of instruments that is constructed to track economic movements in a particular portion of the market.\nYou can utilize your equities brokerage account to invest in different asset classes through ETFs. Bond ETFs, for example, allow you to invest in bonds at a much lower cost than if you purchased the actual bonds. Bond ETFs, such the iShares IEF 7-10 Year Treasury Bond ETF, replicate various bond indices and are a cost effective way for investors to gain exposure to the asset class.\nWhen investing in ETFs, it\u2019s important to keep in mind that there are additional embedded costs. All ETFs have expense ratios which cover the costs of operating the fund. These costs are embedded into the price of the ETF.\nMake investing a habit\nIf you\u2019re going to start a proactive investing strategy that focuses on building a diversified portfolio, it\u2019s important to make investing part of your lifestyle and commit to putting money aside regularly. By developing the habit of putting money aside for investing, you can take advantage of dollar-cost averaging in your investing strategy. This basically means that you invest a set dollar amount into your portfolio at regular time intervals (every week, month, etc.), regardless of share price. With dollar-cost averaging, you\u2019ll buy more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high and, eventually, the average cost per share will decrease. Dollar-cost averaging lessens your investing risk because you aren\u2019t seeking to time the market by putting all your money into an investment at a single point in time, which allows you to focus on diversification as you invest.\nBrush up on your fractions\nThe fractional share technology on DriveWealth\u2019s app makes it easy for investors to create a diversified portfolio on any budget. Fractional shares allow investors to put any dollar amount they want (even just $5) into any stock they want, regardless of share price. Having the ability to invest in terms of dollars will allow you to spread your money out across securities in different sectors, asset classes, and geographic locations without being constrained by high share prices.\nKeep Your Investing Personality in Mind\nSo now you know that you should be building a diversified portfolio. But, how do you know how much money to allocate towards each asset class, industry, or location? There are many things that go into constructing an asset allocation strategy, but two things to keep in mind are your risk tolerance and your time horizon. Knowing when you need access to your money (time horizon) and how much risk you feel comfortable taking will help you figure out how to structure your portfolio. For example, if you are 58 years old and looking to retire in 2 years, you may choose to invest in less volatile investments, such as treasuries or large cap-equities. On the other hand, if you are younger and willing to take on more risk, you may invest more heavily in stocks of international companies.\nEven after you\u2019ve built a diversified portfolio, it\u2019s important to monitor your investments rather than putting them on \u201cauto-pilot.\u201d You don\u2019t necessarily need to conduct in-depth analysis on all your holdings, but maintaining awareness of overall market conditions and news related to companies you are invested in will help you to maintain a diverse investment strategy.\nDiversification is a key principle of investing- just like location and real estate or fine wine and dining- and there\u2019s definitely a reason why successful investors have made it their battle cry. If you construct a diverse portfolio, you\u2019ll be more likely to grow and maintain your wealth over time.",

I've made an intro video (that, in itself was an education) and will be posting it soon,,\nI'm praying a video/tech agrees this is a Great idea and shows up to lend a hand.\nHere's what I'm about, Who I am, and why Patreon is the perfect platform for this epic mission.\nI've been involved in the Arts for over 40 years. Working as a Fine Artist. Screen printer. A Special Effects makeup Artist and even as a Taxidermy Detailing Artist. Now, as a full time Paint brush Wielder, I want to take what I've learned to a new level. By going into the studios/creative spaces of everyday aspiring Creators. Artists, that despite their circumstances, refuse to stop or be dissuaded. Others who share the same drive and passion I did and still do. And I do literally mean go to their spaces.......like drive to where they are type of thing.,,,and just chat.\nI want to Document a Journey of what makes us Artist continue to create when the struggles and difficulties are overwhelming. Knowing others have that same need and drive is what I want to explore and to be the focus. I look to gain a new perspective and outlook that will aid me in my own Work. Which I will also continue to Create while on the road..Yep, I'm packing up my entire Studio and putting it in the bus...so look for me by the roadside.\nI believe that letting a Creator know their being seen and heard can change everything.\nHaving those same trials has inspired me to reach out, and let others know they are not alone. And maybe by sharing a collective knowledge, we all can learn something. Old Dogs can learn new tricks if we're open to the idea.....and I am.\nJoin me in this Traveling Roadshow and Art Appreciation Adventure as I meet with amazing Creators and talk to them about working hard to realize their Dreams, their own way. And lets see what we all can learn........I've already learned I'm better behind a paintbrush then a computer, so see, It's already started!!!! You can see my Work @ Facebook/ScottGartist\nDonators and Cause Believers\nThank you for Believing in my Quest....All Donations of any size will be accepted and used for this project.\nThank you for going the extra mile, so we can go extra miles.\nRewards for fellow travelers are a postcard from ScottG studios. and after 3 months of travel we'll send you a Button also....\nGetting additional video and editing equipment is needed for the road. And if we can find someone techy who believes enough in this to wanna be a part, even better. I've got a few cameras, a set of really cool wheels, and a jug of water already......so we still need a few things......definitely needing a new laptop/notebook device and accessories for editing on the road.\nWhen this goal is reached, we purchase the equipment and begin gathering supplies. Then the Journey will begin and Our next Goal will be hitting the road.......so yeah......I'm gonna need gas money.\nRecent posts by ScottGartist",

        "raw_content": "Review of \u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk\u201d\nIn 2004, Army specialist Billy Lynn (Joe Alwyn) and his unit are caught in a vicious firefight in an Iraqi village. Part of that battle was captured by a news crew\u2019s abandoned camera. It shows Lynn going to the aid of his sergeant who goes by the nickname Shroom (Vin Diesel) after he is hit by insurgent gunfire. Despite Lynn\u2019s efforts, Shroom dies. Lynn and the other members of his unit are considered heroes for their actions and Lynn is awarded the Silver Star. The Army sends the unit on a publicity tour around the US to build civilian morale and put a face to the soldiers serving in Iraq. Lynn and the rest of the squad are hoping to sell their story to be made into a movie and are accompanied by an agent named Albert (Chris Tucker) who is constantly on his cell phone trying to get Hollywood interested in making a deal. The last stop on the publicity tour is an appearance at the annual Thanksgiving Day football game in Dallas, Texas, where the unit will be on the field at halftime with Destiny\u2019s Child. The owner of the Dallas Cowboys Norm Oglesby (Steve Martin) welcomes the soldiers and puts out a lavish buffet for them and his other VIP guests. Lynn catches the eye of a cheerleader named Faison (Makenzie Leigh) and the two find an instant connection in their limited time together. Lynn and a couple other soldiers in the unit have symptoms of PTSD and Lynn\u2019s sister Kathryn (Kristen Stewart) believes he could get an honorable discharge if he will see a doctor she knows. With the loss of his beloved sergeant, all the pressure from the tour, the feeling like everyone is just trying to use the soldiers for their own gain and his feelings for Faison, Lynn is beginning to question whether staying with his fellow soldiers is worth continuing to put his life on hold.\nThe plight of American soldiers returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and dealing with PTSD and a less than helpful Veterans Affairs Administration has been documented in the news media and even was an issue in the recent presidential campaign. While politicians make speeches and promises about supporting the troops and fixing the problems in the VA nothing much seems to get done. While other movies have been made about war and the toll it takes on those sent to fight it, none has been done on quite the scale or with a well-respected director like Ang Lee as \u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk.\u201d Unfortunately this film seems more concerned with how interestingly the story is told and the movie and message suffers for it.\nAng Lee made the film using a very high frame rate and 3D. The version I saw was digital 4K and 2D so I cannot speak to how some critics found the bells and whistles to be distracting and unnecessary considering the subject matter of the film; however, there are choices Lee made in shooting the actors and how they delivered their lines that reduce the impact of the story.\nFor instance, the actors speak directly at the camera instead of being in a shot with the other character or looking just off camera as is the norm. Sometimes it is effective but more often I felt like I was a child being talked down to. It gets annoying after a while as character after character delivers a speech to the camera. Some are impassioned while others are deadpan responses to questions. It grates on the nerves after a few times and begins to feel intrusive as if you were involved in a conversation you desperately wanted to end.\nIt doesn\u2019t help that many of the characters come across more like caricatures. An example is a brief appearance by a Texas oil man played by Tim Blake Nelson. He comes to the table where the unit is eating and begins with the usual platitudes then starts a sales pitch for his company that uses frakking to extract oil from shale. The speech makes no sense in the context of the story (this is one of many that don\u2019t) and it feels like an attempt to shoehorn in a message of some sort. The sad part is, I\u2019m not sure what the message is supposed to be. The scene quickly becomes uncomfortable as the unit\u2019s commanding officer Sgt. Dime, played by Garrett Hedlund, starts a speech of his own. This may have been an attempt at humor and a message of a different type. It is mildly funny but once again the message is lost in the delivery.\nIf anything, the moral of \u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk\u201d is everyone is out to get something from you. Whether it is to bask in your glory, to make money from you or to gain prestige merely from being in your presence, everyone is interested in you only to get what they can then they are gone once the well dries up. Whether it was meant to be that way or not it\u2019s a cynical message that sucks the life out of the movie. It would be different if many of the characters weren\u2019t so transparent in their obvious desire to profit from the soldiers but they are all about as subtle as a sledgehammer.\nDespite my feelings about the story, there are some very good performances in the film. First-time star Joe Alwyn gives a subtle and moving performance as Billy Lynn. Alwyn does a good job wrangling a passable Texas accent even though he\u2019s from England. While he has done theatre, this is his first movie and it is an impressive job. Billy sometimes comes across as a little dumb but he\u2019s actually merely assessing the situation and determining his response. It is a quiet bit of acting that would have been better showcased without the trickery of the production.\nSteve Martin is deceptively slimy as the billionaire football team owner Norm Oglesby. While the script may show his hand a bit too soon, Martin manages to keep you guessing about Oglesby\u2019s true motives towards the soldiers until late in the film. It almost made me sad that Martin was playing a bad guy in the movie as I can\u2019t help but see him in my mind as that wild and crazy guy from back in his standup days or from his characters in films like \u201cThe Jerk\u201d and \u201cAll of Me.\u201d Of course, Martin has proven his acting chops over the years and it\u2019s good to see him on screen again.\nIn a limited role, Vin Diesel surprises as the philosophy and religion quoting Shroom. It is a surprisingly calm and laid-back performance that actually made me want to see more of the character. He is the father figure to the men in his unit and he takes that role seriously. Shroom\u2019s death is the catalyst that opens the eyes of some members of the unit as to how fleeting and delicate life is. I just wish the events that followed and the way they were portrayed had been more respectful.\n\u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk\u201d is rated R for language throughout, some war violence, sexual content, and brief drug use. The battle in Iraq is pretty intense with a brief scene of hand-to-hand combat that leads to a bloody death. We also see various people shot. There are a couple of fist fights that are brief. The sexual content is Billy having a fantasy about Faison. There is no nudity but we get a brief view of a sex act. A couple of characters are shown smoking pot. Foul language is fairly common.\n\u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk\u201d could have been a very heartfelt and powerful movie; however, the weird way the film is shot and somewhat ham fisted storytelling effort makes the film often painful to watch. I wanted to like it but the movie gets in its own way too much to be an enjoyable experience.\n\u201cBilly Lynn\u2019s Long Halftime Walk\u201d gets two guitars out of five.\nFour new movies open up this holiday week. I\u2019ll see and review at least one of the following:\nNovember 21, 2016 stanthemovieman\tBilly Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, Chris Tucker, Garrett Hedlund, Joe Alwyn, Kristen Stewart, Makenzie Leigh, Movie review, Steve Martin, Vin Diesel",

        "raw_content": "Manufacurer(s)\nUK/IRL April 11, 1992\nAU July 3, 1992\nJP September 2003\nWorldwide: 49.10 million\nNorth & South America: 23.35 million\nBest Selling Game\n16-bit 65c816 Ricoh 5A22 3.58 MHz\nOnline Service(s)\nSatellaview (Japan only)\nThe Super Nintendo Entertainment System often abbreviated to SNES or simply Super Nintendo, is a console developed by Nintendo following the NES. It marks the first release in the Star Fox series, being Star Fox as the only Star Fox game for this console. A sequel was set to be released in the form of Star Fox 2, but because of the lateness in the Super Nintendo's marketing lifespan, it was canceled in favour of the upcoming Nintendo 64.\nThe logo for the SNES.\nThe Super Nintendo Entertainment System or Super NES (also called SNES and Super Nintendo) is a 16-bit video game console that was released by Nintendo in North America, Europe, Australasia (Oceania), and South America between 1990 and 1993. In Japan and Southeast Asia, the system is called the Super Family Computer, Super Famicom (\u30b9\u30fc\u30d1\u30fc\u30d5\u30a1\u30df\u30b3\u30f3, S\u016bp\u0101 Famikon), or SFC for short. In South Korea, it is known as the Super Comboy and was distributed by Hyundai Electronics. Although each version is essentially the same, several forms of regional lockout prevent direct compatibility.\nThe Super Nintendo Entertainment System was Nintendo's second home console, following the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). The console introduced advanced graphics and sound capabilities that compensated for its relatively slow CPU, compared with other consoles at the time. Additionally, development of a variety of enhancement chips (which shipped as part of certain game cartridges) helped to keep it competitive in the marketplace.\nThe SNES standard controller adds two additional face buttons to the design of the NES iteration, arranging the four in a diamond shape, and introduces two shoulder buttons. It also features an ergonomic design later used for the NES 2. The Japanese and PAL region versions incorporate the system's logo in the colors of the four action buttons, while the North American version colors them lavender and purple to match the redesigned console and gives the lighter two a concave rather than convex top. Several later consoles derive elements of their controller design from the SNES, including the PlayStation, PS2, PS3, Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, and Wii (Classic Controller).\nThroughout the course of its life, a number of peripherals were released which added to the functionality of the SNES. Many of these devices were modeled after earlier add-ons for the NES: the Super Scope is a light gun functionally similar to the NES Zapper (though the Super Scope features wireless capabilities) and the Super Advantage is an arcade-style joystick with adjustable turbo settings akin to the NES Advantage. Nintendo also released the SNES Mouse in conjunction with its Mario Paint title. Hudson Soft, under license from Nintendo, released the Super Multitap, a multiplayer adapter for use with its popular series of Bomberman games. Some of the more unusual controllers include the one-handed ASCII Stick L5, the BatterUP baseball bat, and the TeeV Golf golf club.\nWhile Nintendo never released an adapter for playing NES games on the SNES, the Super Game Boy adapter cartridge allows games designed for Nintendo's portable Game Boy system to be played on the SNES. The Super Game Boy touted several feature enhancements over the Game Boy, including palette substitution, custom screen borders, and (for specially enhanced games) access to the SNES console.\nLike the NES before it, the SNES saw its fair share of unlicensed third-party peripherals, including a new version of the Game Genie cheat cartridge designed for use with SNES games and a variety of game copier devices. In general, Nintendo proved to be somewhat more tolerant of unlicensed SNES peripherals than they had been with NES peripherals.\nSoon after the release of the SNES, companies began marketing backup devices such as the Super Wildcard, Super Pro Fighter Q, and Game Doctor. These devices were sold to create a backup of a cartridge, in the event that it would break. However, they could also be used to play copied ROM images that could be downloaded from BBSes and the Internet, or to create copies of rented video games, often violating copyright laws in many jurisdictions.\nSatellaview with Super Famicom.Japan saw the release of the Satellaview, a modem which attached to the Super Famicom's expansion port and connected to the St. GIGA satellite radio station. Users of the Satellaview could download gaming news and specially designed games, which were frequently either remakes of or sequels to older Famicom titles, released in installments. Satellaview signals were broadcast from April 23, 1995 through June 30, 2000. In the United States, the similar but relatively short-lived XBAND allowed users to connect to a network via a dial-up modem to compete against other players around the country.\nDuring the SNES's life, Nintendo contracted with two different companies to develop a CD-ROM-based peripheral for the console to compete with Sega's CD-ROM based add-on, Sega CD. Ultimately, negotiations with both Sony and Philips fell through, and Sony went on to develop its own console based on its initial dealings with Nintendo (the PlayStation), with Philips gaining the right to release a series of titles based on Nintendo franchises for its CD-i multimedia player.\nThe SNES was a global success, becoming the best-selling console of the 16-bit era despite its relatively late start and the fierce competition it faced in North America from Sega's Genesis console. Some consider the SNES to embody the \"Golden Age of video games\", citing its many groundbreaking games and the perceived focus on gameplay over graphics and technical gimmicks. Others question this perceived romanticism, believing the system was just another step in the evolution of video game technology. The SNES remained popular well into the 32-bit era, and although Nintendo has dropped all support for the console, it continues to be popular among fans, collectors, and emulation enthusiasts, some of whom are still making \"homebrew\" ROM images.\nThe Super NES Classic Edition is pre-installed with several noteworthy video games, including Star Fox and Star Fox 2.\nHome Consoles Super Nintendo Entertainment System \u2022 Nintendo 64 \u2022 Nintendo GameCube \u2022 Wii \u2022 Wii U \u2022 Nintendo Switch\nHandhelds Nintendo DS \u2022 Nintendo 3DS\nOther Virtual Console \u2022 Nintendo Classic Mini\nRetrieved from \"https://starfox.fandom.com/wiki/Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System?oldid=47933\"",

        "title": "Femoral Hernia Article - StatPearls",
        "raw_content": "Femoral hernias are less frequent than inguinal hernias. Recognition of a femoral hernia is an important factor in the workup and evaluation of a patient who presents with a groin bulge as the options and urgency of repair may differ from that of a more common inguinal hernia.\nA hernia is defined as an abnormal protrusion of an organ or tissue through a defect in its surrounding walls. Hernia defects may occur in various locations of the abdominal wall, but most commonly occur in the inguinal region. Hernias can occur at sites where the aponeurosis and fascia are not covered by striated muscle. As a result, the peritoneal membrane or hernia sac may protrude from the orifice or neck of a hernia.\nA femoral hernia occurs in the femoral canal. It is bordered by the inguinal ligament anterosuperiorly, Cooper's ligament inferiorly, the femoral vein laterally and the junction of the iliopubic tract, and Cooper\u2019s ligament (lacunar ligament) medially. Typically, a femoral hernia will present with a characteristic bulge below the inguinal ligament. Strangulation is the most common serious complication of a femoral hernia; these hernias have the highest rate of strangulation (15% to 20%).\nLifetime occurrence of a groin hernia is 27% to 43% in men and 3% to 6% in women.[1] Femoral hernias occur less commonly than inguinal hernias and typically account for about 3% of all groin hernias. While inguinal hernias are still most common, regardless of gender, femoral hernias have a female-to-male ratio of about 10:1. Femoral hernias are rare in men. There may be other co-existing defects present at the time of diagnosis, as 10% of women and 50% of men with a femoral hernia either have or will develop an inguinal hernia. The prevalence of a femoral hernia increases with age as does the risk of complications including incarceration or strangulation.[1]\nBoth femoral and inguinal hernias occur more often on the right side. This is likely due to a developmental delay in closure of the processus vaginalis after the normal slower descent of the right testis during fetal development. There is agreement that the position of the sigmoid colon results in a tamponade effect on the left femoral canal, decreasing the likelihood of a left-sided defect.\nA femoral hernia may be detected on routine physical exam, and approximately one-third of patients may be asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis.[2] Typically, a small bulge is noted below the level of the inguinal ligament. On occasion, the bulge may ascend cephalad suggesting a more commonly noted inguinal hernia. Herniated preperitoneal fat is commonly noted within the hernia sac and may reduce with direct pressure or manipulation. Incarceration refers to content that cannot be reduced from within the hernia sac or defect. Strangulation occurs commonly with femoral hernias, and therefore, these patients may present urgently for evaluation. Strangulation refers to a vascular compromise to the contents of a hernia. This occurs more often in the setting of a hernia with a small neck, resulting in obstruction of arterial flow and/or venous drainage to the contents of a hernia. As a result, there may be engorgement of the hernia sac and contents with findings on exam of a painful, hard lump or mass. If small or large intestine is contained within the hernia sac, a patient may present with signs or symptoms of obstruction. Such symptoms could include nausea/vomiting, abdominal distention, abdominal pain and possibly a decrease in bowel function with an absence of flatus or bowel movements. Patients may also present with paresthesias related to compression of nearby sensory nerves by a hernia.\nA clinician should have a high index of suspicion of a femoral hernia when evaluating a patient who presents with a bulge or painful mass in the groin region. A physical exam should be performed in both the supine and standing positions if possible. Visual inspection for asymmetry, bulges, or mass should be performed. Palpation for an inguinal defect is often done by placing a fingertip along the invaginated scrotal wall to evaluate the inguinal canal and inguinal floor. Valsalva maneuver may be helpful to assess for a bulge in identifying a hernia. Classically a bulge identified below the inguinal ligament is consistent with a femoral hernia. A careful reduction may be attempted in an otherwise asymptomatic patient, but caution should be taken to avoid manual reduction if there is pain or signs of strangulation or obstruction.\nImaging studies, including ultrasound or computed tomography (CT), can be utilized in the evaluation of a possible hernia. Both studies offer a high degree of both sensitivity and specificity in the detection of femoral and inguinal hernias. This may allow better evaluation in morbidly obese patients in whom detection may be more challenging on physical exam alone.[3] CT provides better visualization in patients who may present with incarceration or strangulation on exam. Currently, laparoscopy is not generally considered part of the diagnostic process for groin complaints and bulges.[1]\nSurgical intervention remains the only cure. It is often recommended that femoral hernias be repaired at the time of diagnosis. This is mostly due to their increased incidence of complications including incarceration or strangulation, compared to the more common inguinal hernia[1]. With regards to the timing of intervention or femoral hernia repair, the finding of strangulation or obstruction presents a surgical emergency, and operative intervention should not be delayed. Femoral hernias may be repaired using a standard inguinal approach, an open pre-peritoneal approach or a minimally invasive (laparoscopic or robotic-assisted laparoscopic) approach. Regardless of technique or approach, key steps to repair of a femoral hernia include dissection and reduction of the hernia sac and closure of the defect or obliteration of the defect with the placement of a prosthetic mesh. If there is clinical concern for incarceration or strangulation, the hernia sac should be opened, and the contents examined to assess viability. The lacunar ligament may be divided, if necessary, to facilitate reduction of the hernia sac and contents. Placement of prosthetic mesh should be avoided in the setting of compromised bowel, enterotomy or gross contamination, due to concerns of infection or bacterial exposure within the operative field. Mesh infection, while uncommon, is a serious complication that may be difficult to treat and often requires an explanation of the infected prosthesis. Surgical site infection is estimated to be 2% to 4% for elective inguinal or femoral hernia repairs.[4][5]\nMany repairs are available, and this strongly suggests that a \"best repair method\" does not exist.[6] Additionally, large variations in treatments performed result from cultural differences among surgeons, different reimbursement systems, and differences in resources and logistical capabilities.[1]\nThe differential diagnosis of a groin mass is broad. Clinical history and physical exam findings are important factors in determining an accurate diagnosis in patients who present with a femoral hernia. Other possible diagnoses include an inguinal hernia, hydrocele/varicocele, lymphadenopathy, lipoma, cyst, abscess, hematoma, and femoral artery pseudoaneurysm/aneurysm. It is important to evaluate the contralateral groin for asymmetry to aid in determining a diagnosis. Careful examination of the external genitalia, extremity and abdomen are necessary and helpful as clinicians work through a differential diagnosis. Imaging studies (ultrasonography or CT), although costly, can also be useful in the diagnostic workup of these patients.\nIn most cases, the success of femoral hernia repair is excellent. Overall recurrence rates for groin hernias range between 5% to 10%. Tension-free techniques and mesh-based repairs, if appropriate, lead to approximately 60% reduction in ipsilateral recurrence compared to non-mesh or suture-based repairs.\nRisk factors for recurrence include tobacco abuse, obesity, increased intra-abdominal pressure, coexisting infection, collagen tissue disorders, diabetes, and poor nutritional state. Most hernias recur within the first 2 years after repair. Risks and benefits discussion with patients pre-operatively should include the possibility of chronic pain following herniorrhaphy. Chronic pain may occur in up to 15% of patients following hernia repair and can affect activities of daily living in a small subset of patients.[7] In many cases, post-herniorrhaphy pain can be managed non-operatively with anti-inflammatory medications or analgesics. Other post-operative complications may include urinary retention, surgical site infection, seroma or orchitis.[8]\nMost patients with a femoral hernia undergo elective repair in an outpatient setting. Surgery may be performed under general or regional anesthetic (spinal) in most situations.[9] Patients typically are asked to refrain from heavy lifting or straining and may have limitations placed upon their physical activities in the early postoperative period. The timing of return to usual activities varies depending on numerous patient factors and surgeon preference. Length of stay is longer in patients undergoing emergency repair.\nWhen identified on routine physical examination, patients with a femoral hernia should be referred to general surgery for consideration of elective femoral hernia repair, even if asymptomatic. As previously mentioned, this is due to the higher risk of complications including incarceration or strangulation with femoral hernias. In patients who present urgently with acute onset of pain or bulge in the femoral region or with signs or symptoms of obstruction or strangulation, an urgent evaluation must occur with timely consultation and surgical evaluation for repair.\nPatients should be informed of the finding of a femoral hernia when it is detected on physical examination. It is important to educate the patient on the signs and symptoms of incarceration, strangulation, and obstruction that should prompt urgent or emergent medical/surgical evaluation. Once surgical management is deemed necessary, patients must be fully informed of the nature of the operation, together with associated operative risks and the possibility of future reoperation.\nFemoral hernias present typically with a mass or bulge below the level of the inguinal ligament. Femoral hernias occur most commonly in women but lower incidence overall than inguinal hernias.\nIncarceration or strangulation is common with a femoral hernia due to the small size of the hernia neck or orifice.\nAll patients with a femoral hernia should be considered for repair due to the high risk of complications associated with femoral hernias.\nSurgical techniques for repair include open (standard Cooper\u2019s ligament repair, preperitoneal approach) and minimally invasive (standard laparoscopic or robotic-assisted laparoscopic) techniques. Patient factors and surgeon preference and technical proficiency should factor into the method of repair.\nAccurate identification of a femoral hernia may pose a diagnostic dilemma. These patients may exhibit non-specific signs and symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, lower abdominal pain, and leukocytosis. The presence of a groin bulge may be due to more common etiologies such as abscess, lymphadenopathy, soft tissue mass, or other vascular pathology. The physical exam findings may reveal that the patient has a hernia; however, the exact location of the defect or type of contents within the hernia sac may not be obvious.\nWhile the general surgeon is almost always involved in the care of patients with a femoral hernia, it is important to consult with an interprofessional team of specialists that include anesthesiology. The nurses are also a vital member of the interprofessional group as they will monitor the patient's vital signs. In the postoperative period for pain, wound infection and ileus; the pharmacist will ensure that the patient is on the right analgesics, antiemetics, and appropriate antibiotics if indicated. Early mobilization or ambulation is key to enhancing postoperative recovery and minimizing complications. Comprehensive care pathways have been shown to improve patient outcomes and reduce the length of stay. Prompt recognition and diagnosis with surgical consultation are recommended for all patients with a femoral hernia.\nTake 15 Question Quiz on Femoral Hernia",

The Mishnah on today\u2019s daf (=page) describes how this was done, with one group of kohanim placing the new bread on the table as another group was removing the week-old \u2013 but still fresh \u2013 loaves. Replacement of the loaves in this manner was essential because the Torah commands that the loaves be placed before God tamid \u2013 \u201calways\u201d \u2013 (see Shemot 25:30). Rabbi Yossi disagrees with this understand of tamid, arguing that even if the loaves were removed in the morning and replaced in the evening, it would still fulfill the requirement of tamid, which should be understood as teaching that a night should not pass without Shewbread on the table.\nRabbi Ammi infers from Rabbi Yossi\u2019s teaching that the concept of tamid \u2013 \u201calways\u201d \u2013 need not be understood as requiring 24 hour vigilance, and applies it to other situations, as well. Specifically, he says that Torah study, which is a requirement \u201cday and night\u201d (see Yehoshua 1:8) can be fulfilled by studying a chapter in the morning and a chapter at night. This suggestion is supported by the ruling of Rabbi Yohanan in the name of Rabbi Shimon bar Yohai who taught that a person fulfills his obligation to learn Torah according to the passage in Sefer Yehoshua even if he merely recites the Shma in the morning and in the evening, but that it is forbidden to teach this to unlearned people who will take advantage of it. Ravaargued that it is a mitzvah to teach this law to people who are unlearned, so that they should understand how great the reward for serious Torah study might be.\nMenahot 100a-b - When sacrificial offerings are eaten very rare\nAccording to the Mishnah on yesterday's daf (=page) when Yom Kippur fell out on a Friday \u2013 something that cannot happen today, with the establishment of a set\u2026\nMenahot 98a-b - The symbolism of the Shushan gate\nDuring the Second Temple period, there were five gates leading to the Temple Mount, two on the Southern Wall and one each on the\u2026",

        "title": "NIM wits: when is a magazine not a magazine? \u2014UPDATED | StopPress",
        "raw_content": "NIM wits: when is a magazine not a magazine? \u2014UPDATED\nSeptember is shaping up to be a watershed month for APN NZ\u2014and, more broadly, New Zealand's newspaper publishing sector. The New Zealand Herald is set to reveal its new compact weekday edition on 10 September and the newly redesigned nzherald.co.nz site will go live around the same time. There's also a new Newspaper Inserted Magazine (NIM) on Mondays about food, health and well-being and readers will also be treated to a one-off premium glossy magazine on launch day called, appropriately enough, The Magazine. But what exactly is a magazine? Why are NIMs so appealing for newspaper publishers? And why is ACP's Paul Dykzeul so fired up?\nThe compact Herald is set to be launched with a big multi-media campaign and The Magazine will be inserted in all copies on launch day, with APN claiming the publication, which is being edited by Jane Phare and is designed to be kept by readers, offers the reach of the country\u2019s best-read daily newspaper (566,000 people), 62 percent of whom are in the top three socio-economic levels.\nWhile this is a one-off to celebrate a new era for the paper, it's also part of a long-running trend that has seen newspapers replicating some of the tricks of the magazine trade.\nACP chief executive Paul Dykzeul isn't renowned for mincing his words and he finds it slightly ironic that APN is celebrating the launch of its compact newspaper by promoting a magazine. In fact, he jokes that it won't be long before they're inserting newspapers into magazines given the state of the newspaper industry.\nHe says NIMS were originally created to, as the publishers tend to say, attract women. But he believes it was always about trying to find more ad dollars, something papers have been losing quite a few of in recent years. And he believes \"the vast majority of that stuff gets binned\" and \"it doesn't get to the audience\".\nIn many cases, magazines with a specific target are doing quite well at present. But he says newspapers don't need to know anything about targeting and, as far as the content goes, he offers an analogy: you don't need to wrap freight well if you're moving it in a big truck.\nAPN's business marketing manager Stephanie Gray responds to Dykzeul's claims succinctly with \"yeah, good one\", pointing out that readership is recorded for all of its NIMS and the results are very strong.\nNielsen readership numbers = Travel (Tuesday): 356,000, Viva (Wednesday): 349,000, TimeOut (Thursday): 436,000, The Business (Friday): 387,000, Weekend (Saturday): 400,000, Canvas (Saturday): 413,000.\nThese numbers are deduced by combining those who read the Herald and are then asked if they read certain sections or NIMS, as well as those who may read, for example, Canvas in the cafe without reading the paper. When the methodology was launched a few years back, ACP protested that it inflated the numbers. And, given the sense there has been a market share shift of advertising from mass-market weeklies into NIMS, possibly due to the speed to market newspapers can offer, that attitude isn't entirely surprising.\nSome have pointed out the papers haven't released any of the 'time spent reading' data for NIMs, either because they don't make for great reading or because they don't have them. But Gray says, \"hand on heart\", it's not a measure they ever talk about in the office and she wasn't aware those statistics were available.\nNielsen's new CMI programme records time spent reading for magazines, but when we asked Nielsen if it calculated that for NIMS, we were told to get in touch with the publishers.\n\"We have released time spent reading for all our main masthead publications i.e. The New Zealand Herald, Herald on Sunday, NZ Woman\u2019s Weekly, New Idea, Listener etc just like other newspaper and magazine publishers,\" says APN's market information director Carin Hercock (we then asked specifically whether NIMs were measured but hadn't heard back before pushing publish).\nUPDATE: \"There has been some NIM data collected by Nielsen but it doesn\u2019t reflect our own internal data on NIM readership and since this is a new measure we are working with Nielsen to understand the differences and methodology to ensure we get an accurate reflection of consumer behaviour. NIMs are measured differently to magazines, they are essentially a specific issue readership compared with magazines which are a measure of the readership of any issue within a publication period so the approach we take for time spent reading may need to be different.\"\nThe MPA is trying to move away from the catch-all title of 'print' and create more of a distinction between magazines and newspapers and he says part of the reason for that is \"the newspaper business model is fundamentally broken and magazines are still a terrific business\" (another bugbear for Dykzeul and others in the magazine industry is the fact that ad revenue from NIMS goes into the newspaper coffers for ASA ad spend figures, rather than into magazines).\n\"It's a terrible irony that the size of the newspaper is catching up with the direction of the paper. They're selling it as a compact, but it's become a tabloid. I love newspapers and I think they're critically important for journalism, but what's happening to The Herald is a disgrace.\"\nIt's certainly not all beer and skittles for magazines, of course. But New Zealand is something of an anomaly when compared to some other markets and, as Dykzeul says, New Zealanders are by and large still willing to pay for magazines. Conversely, he says there is now an expectation from many consumers that daily news will be free. And the more they move to giving it away for free, the more the quality drops, he says.\nThe New Zealand market is also something of an anomaly for newspapers, with strong regional titles and a big focus on subscriptions rather than newsagent sales meaning the rate of circulation and ad revenue decline has been slower here than it has overseas. The last round of readership and circ numbers showed papers staying fairly static and some even rising (although some believe the numbers are being propped up because the newspaper sector recently decided to count paid copies at 30 percent of the cover price, rather than the previous measure of 50 percent that the magazine sector has stuck with).\nThe loss of ad revenue is a different, much more troubling story, and, as David Mitchell points out brilliantly in the below video, this new environment is not a challenge, it's a massive problem. But as Newspaper Publisher's Association chair Tim Pankhurst said when we chatted a while back, $582 million is still a big chunk of change and, according to the recent PwC entertainment and media report for the Australian market, print revenue is expected to plateau by 2015.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdYe2w8pwsM\nAnother issue currently being debated is the difference between a catalogue and a magazine. Hunting & Fishing is counted on Nielsen's readership survey, despite the fact it consists mostly of products for sale. Dyzeul says a magazine needs to have \"a high percentage of editorial content that isn't related to the specifics of the brand under which it sits\" and points to Air New Zealand's Kia Ora as an example of something that has a small amount of required information surrounded by interesting related content.\nTim Pankhurst",

Over the past several days I have been dealing with ants in my place of residence, and this concept has been on my mind.\nAn individual ant, going through life, isn\u2019t very destructive. They basically just wander around until they encounter something of interest. From there other ants that are wandering around randomly will encounter the trail from the first, and follow that trail. Over time several ants, all wandering around, eventually stumble upon these trails and start following them. Pretty soon you have a trail of ants, seemingly organized, but that arose from just a single ant\u2019s lucky encounter.\nIn an interview I recently watched with Erik Spiekermann, he talks about how much of his knowledge wasn\u2019t gained through study, but rather by diving into a project he was interested in, and learning as he went. His anecdote about the print shop relates very closely to my own experience, and how I learned much of what I know about web design by simply diving in, and learning as I go.\nThe interesting thing is that back then, I couldn\u2019t dream of some of the stuff I am doing now, but the knowledge wasn\u2019t gained in a linear process. Little lessons were picked up along the way, and each new project brought with it a new challenge to conquer. Bit by bit I was assembling a knowledge base, and while the end result seems vast, it was built simply, over time.\nThe Language of Life May 13, 2011 This Is Just A Test",

        "raw_content": "Spider Bags \u2013 Shake My Head\nWill this be the album where Chapel Hill\u2019s SPIDER BAGS finally get the recognition they deserve? It\u2019s hard to think they couldn\u2019t with such an ambitious offering like Shake My Head, their third full length album from the Odessa Records label in North Carolina.\nShake My Head is driven by a \u201cfuck it, let\u2019s do this\u201d sort of mentality, which makes for plenty of solid, heart-stopping rock & roll anthems that always manage to overshadow the brutally honest and sad tone of Dan McGee\u2019s lyrics. Most \u2013 if not all \u2013 of the alt-country twang from past efforts is traded in for a grandiose rock & roll sound, bringing down the house with lethal onslaughts like \u201cKeys to the City,\u201d \u201cFriday Night\u201d and \u201cStanding on a Curb.\u201d Aside from that, there are some less exhilarating dirges, like the dark and noisy \u201cDaymare,\u201d \u201cThe Moon is a School Girl\u201d and the lazy swagger of \u201cShawn Cripps Boogie.\u201d Despite their dreary nature, this three song punch makes up a hell of a finish for the epic album.\nEpic is a word I use sparingly, but you must give credit where credit is due \u2013 this album is epic. Not many sing as honestly as McGee, which is evidenced in tracks like \u201cI\u2019ll Go Crazy\u201d or \u201cDaymare,\u201d the latter of which is probably the closest we\u2019ll ever get to A Celebration of Hunger-era Spider Bags. \u201cThe buildings are the bastards of the sky/ I got high/ I was born where the moonlight meets the sky\u201d slurs McGee against a scratchy backdrop, using his catchy hooks to help seal up a track that is considerably haunting.\nTo try and wrap things up, alt-country alone doesn\u2019t cut it anymore for the Bags. Then again, it\u2019s all not totally out of their realm, but this record still offers a change of pace. Tracks like \u201cSimona La Ramona\u201d or \u201cQuetzalcoatl Love Song\u201d should help prove that, which offer a lighter pop edge that you wouldn\u2019t necessarily expect from the Bags, making for a refreshing change-up in their growing discography.\nIf you find that the Bags are coming to your town, it\u2019s worth every second to check them out. They came through Philadelphia in September and these videos show what you might encounter. Also be sure to listen to the these tracks below because you\u2019ll be seeing this album again! And if you\u2019re thinking you read this before it\u2019s because it was originally posted on Get Bent.\nGenre/ Tags: Punk, Alternative, Alt-Country\nShake My Head LP: Tracklist:\n1.)

        "raw_content": "Doors- Gravesend \u2192\nTales from the City- London\u2019s Fading Blue Plaque\nSometimes a places gets the recognition on the round blue disc.\nI like wandering about. When I do, it\u2019s always great fun to look up and see a blue disc above a doorway, informing me that this is where Charles Dickens lived, this is where Pepys ate lunch. It gives one a sense of belonging to the past.\nIt\u2019s a brilliant idea that started in the 1860\u2019s and now in the age of austerity it looks as if this little blue plaque might go the same way of many things so typically British into the memory bins of the past. I hope not. English Heritage took over the scheme and has now announced the end of the programme. With so many people visiting London, I have to ask, why must this practice fade away?\nThe Blue Plaque has lasted 147 years, having its birth in 1866 when William Ewart and Henry Cole, and the Royal Society of Arts erected the round discs, the first being in 1867 for Lord Byron. A fitting candidate So from 1866- 2013, I suppose that\u2019s been a good run.\nIn order to have one of these little blue discs put up in one\u2019s honour, the person had to be dead for twenty years and be considered important in their field, having contributed to the human condition in a positive way. They might have lived in the building or spent some time there. Curiously Shakespeare who lived and worked in London, never did get a bit of blue. Odd I think\u2026\nRegardless of who gets a blue plaque, London will lose something if the blue disc is to be lost forever. I am hoping that somehow English Heritage will find a way to save this little bit of our history.\nEnglish: Blue plaque on no 48 Doughty Street, London WC1 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)\nGallery | This entry was posted in Tales From The City and tagged Blue plaque, Charles Dickens, England, English Heritage, Henry Cole, Lord Byron, Royal Society of Arts, Shakespheare, Tales From The City.

Especially in and around London, where most tourists congregate and since tourism still generates considerable income it would be lunacy to do away with such important historical signposts for all to use and learn from!\nI so agree. I am waiting to hear if they are just going to stop all new discs and leave the ones that are already up well alone and hope that the owner of the property will take care of the plaques? I was gutted when I heard the news. It makes a city feel like home and well\u2026we all love to snoop a bit on other people\u2019s lives! \ud83d\ude09\nWell indeed \u2013 it seems to me you should all get up in arms!\nI would think this would be a nice thing for tourists and locals alike. Seems a shame to have it go by the wayside. I wonder what the thinking is behind their removal.\nHi Carrie, I think it is just the cost of making the disc and mounting it onto the building, insurance, damage to the building etc..all the modern worries we plague ourselves with. I seriously hope the old ones stay up!\nI found one of those to mark where Nancy Mitford worked in a bookshop. I actually squealed out loud. I hope they will find a way to keep them. They are much more appealing than our horrible signs.\nNancy Mitford!! Oh what fun! ( I didn\u2019t know she worked in a bookshop\u2026 something to go look into now!) I wonder what other cities do?\nHere\u2019s what Charleston, South Carolina (where I live) does: http://www.preservationsociety.org/program_historicmarkers.asp\nMuch more unsightly. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks Andra! Those really look large! Almost like an advertisement board of sorts, but better than nothing! I am not sure where I was in America but they had little bronze shield like plaques\u2026those I kinda liked, but I have to say there is just something cheerful about the blue discs!\nHi Susan, I read in the newspaper that the blue discs were being cancelled, and I thought that it wasn\u2019t a good idea at the time. They\u2019re quite handy actually, and make a building more of a building when you know who was there before \u2013 not that I\u2019ve seen that many of them, I must add. I agree with you, and I hope they find away to let them stay!\nI haven\u2019t heard any good news yet. It\u2019s such a shame\u2026like selling off the red phone boxes, and the red double decker buses. I know costs and all that. ( That was the reason behind the phone boxes, the glass was constantly being vandalized.) And of course with the phone boxes\u2026.The mobile phone has truly killed those now. It\u2019s hard when these are iconic images of London and people expect to see them when they come to the city. But I suppose the city itself is a living thing and not a museum\u2026. although you know me\u2026I wouldn\u2019t mind a combination of both! \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Science and technology can solve Nigeria\u2019s challenges, says Onu\nBy Lawrence Njoku (Enugu) and Emeka Anuforo (Abuja)\n\u2022 Former ministers urge Buhari to explore sector for economic diversification\nMinister of Science and Technology, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, has called for more emphasis on technology to solve the challenges facing the country.\nHe listed the diversification and growth of the economy, reduction of poverty and illiteracy, job creation, revitalization of the middle class, insecurity and corruption as challenges facing the country, suggesting that they could be tackled by scientific and technological knowledge.\nDelivering the 2015 Post graduate lecture of the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT), the Minister, who was represented by the Executive Vice Chairman, National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI), Prof Sanni Haruna, said as acquisition of knowledge had helped countries attain high standards of living, likewise its neglect could lead to decline of the influence of nations.\nHe spoke on the theme; \u201cPost graduate training in Nigeria; Perspective for National Development\u201d.\nOnu stated that it is the quality of post graduate students produced by tertiary institutions, equipped with the necessary technological skills that would help the country meet her challenges and improve productivity by moving the nation away from a consumer to a producer nation, thereby stimulating growth of the economy.\nTechnology will also help us renew the Lake Chad, stop desert encroachment in the north, recover our land from erosion in the east, clean up the polluted mangrove swamps of the Niger Delta and finally put a stop to gas flaring. To preserve our environment is not only good for us but also good for our children. We must never forget that our generation must ensure that the land we inherited from our ancestors should be preserved and handed over in good condition to future generations\u201d, he said. To achieve these, the Minister further emphasize the need for research in the Universities such that \u2018they can become world class centres of scholarship that can compete with the best centres of learning in other parts of the world\u201d.\nWe cannot fail to point out that universities as centres of learning have an important role to play in solving the developmental challenges of the nation. The quality of postgraduate students we produce will help us in our search for greatness as nation. It will help prepare our nation, Nigeria, for the demands of a post oil economy\u2019, he said.\nAlso, some former Ministers of Science and Technology yesterday charged President Muhammadu Buhari to give serious attention to the potentials inherit in the sector if the nation is serious about diversifying its economy away from oil.\nThey called on the Buhari administration to make science and technology the cornerstone for the nation\u2019s development.\nThe Ministers spoke in Abuja on Tuesday when they met with Minister of Science and Technology, Prof. Ogbonnoya Onu.\nIn attendance at the interactive session were the following former Ministers: Alhaji Abdulahi Ibrahim (SAN), General (Rtd) Sam Momah, Dr. (Mrs.) Pauline Tallen, Prof. Turner Isoun, Chief (Mrs.) Grace Ekpiwehre and the immediate past minister of the ministry Dr. Abdu Bulama\nSpeaking on behalf of the Group, Isoun called for greater attention to the sector, which he observed had been largely neglected in recent years.\nWe cannot fail to point out that universities as centres of learning have an important role to play in solving the developmental challenges of the nation. The quality of postgraduate students we produce will help us in our search for greatness as nation. It will help prepare our nation, Nigeria, for the demands of a post oil economy\nHe called on the Minister to use his political capital for the good of Nigeria by changing the perception people have about the Ministry.\n\u201cWhen Ministers are appointed, the question most people ask the Minister is \u2018wetin you people dey do for science and technology?\u2019 Science and technology is an inexhaustible oil field for the future. It is inevitable to development and is the corner stone of national development. He also said technology is power. Technology is everything, everything is technology.\u201d\nThey said, if properly explored, science and technology could become the nation\u2019s inexhaustible oil for the future, the cornerstone of development and wealth creation and undoubtedly a job spinner in an unprecedented manner for teeming youths in the country.\nThey enjoined the minister whom they described as a \u2018round peg in a round hole\u2019 to use his wealth of experience to change the fortune of the ministry by engendering the needed attention from government and the undeserved perception from members of the public about the critical role science and technology play in national development.\nOnu expressed appreciation to the former ministers for their contributions to national development in the past.\nHe said government was desirous of delving into the valued experience of the past ministers in the quest to ensure that science and technology assumes its rightful place as the key to solving national challenges especially the economy, security and the rule of law.\nThe minister solicited for the continued cooperation of the former ministers as a reservoir of knowledge since, according to him.\n\u201cIt is important to know about the past to be able to move forward,\u201d he noted.\nHe highlighted the enormous contributions of the sector to the nation, describing it as a special ministry with a lot to do for national development.\nHe said the sector was critical to the diversification the economy and able to assist the nation to move away from mono-product economy to a highly diversified economy.",

        "raw_content": "WHO backs taxing sugary drinks to stop chronic diseases\n*Urges subsidies for fresh fruits, vegetables to encourage consumption\nAt last, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has officially backed the call for the \u2018ban\u2019 or rather placing higher taxation on sugary drinks and fast foods to discourage their consumption.\nA new report by WHO, published yesterday, said taxing sugary drinks could lower consumption and reduce obesity, type 2 diabetes and tooth decay. It also found that subsidies for fresh fruits and vegetables that is reducing prices by 10\u201330 per cent can increase fruit and vegetable consumption.\nAccording to the report titled \u201cFiscal policies for Diet and Prevention of Non-communicable Diseases (NCDs)\u201d, fiscal policies that lead to at least a 20 per cent increase in the retail price of sugary drinks would result in proportional reductions in consumption of such products.\nIt noted that reduced consumption of sugary drinks means lower intake of \u201cfree sugars\u201d and calories overall, improved nutrition and fewer people suffering from overweight, obesity, diabetes and tooth decay.\nFree sugars refer to monosaccharides (such as glucose or fructose) and disaccharides (such as sucrose or table sugar) added to foods and drinks by the manufacturer, cook, or consumer, and sugars naturally present in honey, syrups, fruit juices, and fruit juice concentrates.\nOther key findings of the WHO report include:\n*Taxation of certain foods and drinks, particularly those high in saturated fats, trans fat, free sugars and/or salt appears promising, with existing evidence clearly showing that increases in the prices of such products reduces their consumption.\n*Excise taxes, such as those used on tobacco products, that apply a set (specific) amount of tax on a given quantity or volume of the product, or particular ingredient, are likely to be more effective than sales or other taxes based on a percentage of the retail price.\n*Public support for such tax increases could be increased if the revenue they generate is earmarked for efforts to improve health systems, encourage healthier diets and increase physical activity.\nDirector of WHO\u2019s Department for the Prevention of NCDs, Dr. Douglas Bettcher, said: \u201cConsumption of free sugars, including products like sugary drinks, is a major factor in the global increase of people suffering from obesity and diabetes.\n\u201cIf governments tax products like sugary drinks, they can reduce suffering and save lives. They can also cut healthcare costs and increase revenues to invest in health services.\u201d\nUntil now, several professional health bodies in Nigeria including the Diabetes Association of Nigeria (DAN), National Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism (NSEM) and the Nutrition Society of Nigeria (NSN) have been calling for reduction in the intake of sugary foods and added sugars.\nDiabetes Association of NigeriaSugary drinksWHO",

        "raw_content": "Catholic faith, Faith\nJesus in Disguise?\nAbout a month and a half ago I was driving to Mass. It was a Saturday evening. We typically don\u2019t go to church on Saturday, we prefer going on Sunday, but this particular Mass would be to celebrate the graduating seniors in our parish. I wanted to be there to honor their accomplishments and to tell them how proud I was of them. As a youth leader in our church it was important to me to be there for them.\nWe turned on the road that leads to the church and about a quarter of a mile up the road I saw a man walking. He tried to flag down the car ahead of me but they didn\u2019t stop. He flagged me down. I stopped, looking behind me to make sure no other cars were there, and rolled down my window.\n\u201cYou going to that Catholic Church up the road?\u201d he inquired.\n\u201cYes, Sir, I am. Is there something you need?\u201d I responded.\n\u201cWell, I need a ride to I-20. I stopped at that Catholic Church and no one will give me a ride. The pastor was nice, but he won\u2019t either.\u201d\n\u201cWell, I would give you a ride if Mass wasn\u2019t going to start in about 10 minutes. But if you\u2019d like to wait until after Mass is over I would be happy to take you there. In fact, you can come to church with me if you\u2019d like.\u201d I replied to him, smiling.\n\u201cNo, I want to go now. Why don\u2019t you just take me there now?\u201d he asked persistently.\n\u201cWell, I-20 is in the opposite direction and Mass starts in about 10 minutes. There is no way I can take you and make it back to Mass and I need to go to church. I would be happy to take you there after Mass. You can wait for me or you can go to church with me, either is fine. But I really need to make it to Mass.\u201d I said, looking in my rearview mirror to check for other cars. I saw a few were starting to line up behind me.\n\u201cYou know, those people wouldn\u2019t take me either!\u201d he said with his voice rising in anger. He muttered a couple of swear words and glared at me.\n\u201cSir, I would be happy to take you but I just need to wait until after Mass.\u201d I said in response.\n\u201cI will just walk. Do you have $10 on you to give to me? That would help me out.\u201d He asked forcefully.\n\u201cNo, I don\u2019t, but I will give you what I have.\u201d I said as I reached for my wallet. I pulled out the three dollars I had to my name and folded them over. I handed it out the window. He approached my car and took the money out of my hands.\nHe looked down at the money and seeing it was not $10 gave me a look of disgust. \u201cThis is all?\u201d\n\u201cSir, that is all I have. Like you, I don\u2019t have much either. That truly is all I have.\u201d I replied feeling embarrassed and starting to feel a little angry too.\nHe looked me up and down and said, \u201cYou know, I could be Jesus and those people just wouldn\u2019t help me. Aren\u2019t you supposed to assume I am Jesus in disguise and help me?\u201d\nBecoming irritated at his lack of respect for me and for others, his attitude of self-entitlement, his gross misuse of Christian teaching, and his lack of humility I said in reply, \u201cSir, I highly doubt that you are Jesus.\u201d\nHe looked at me confused and asked why I would say such a thing.\nI replied to him, \u201cSir, I have offered you a ride; you refused it, saying I need to skip church to take you. I offered you what little money I have; you looked down on it because it wasn\u2019t as much as you wanted, even though it was all I had. You have belittled those who perhaps have their own reasons for not being able to help you and you refuse to go to Church to celebrate the Lord. You have misused Christian teaching to benefit yourself. I have a very hard time believing that you are Jesus in disguise. You need to ask yourself if Jesus would behave that way.\u201d\nAs he looked at me, his face softened, perhaps a feeling a tad embarrassed himself said, \u201cThank you for your help. I will start walking and when you are done with church if you see me you can give me that ride.\u201d And he started walking away.\nI looked in my mirror and I saw a string of cars behind me. None had honked and none had indicated that they were upset I was keeping them from the church. I began to drive and my daughter said, \u201cWhat in the world just happened?\u201d I shrugged my shoulders and told her I didn\u2019t know. We decided to pray for him at Mass.\nAfter Mass when I was driving home I never saw the man. The kids asked me if I was going to give him a ride if I saw him. I told them yes, I was. But we never had that opportunity. Maybe someone else gave him the ride. Maybe he made it to where he needed to go. Maybe he really was Jesus in disguise. I don\u2019t know. The kids and I had a discussion about true giving, about humility, and about thankfulness. While I don\u2019t believe the man was Jesus in disguise I do believe we encountered him both for our benefit and for his too. I pray I gave him a few things to think about just as he did for us.\nOver the last month and a half I have wondered about that man. What was his story? How did he get to where he was in life? Where was he going? He wasn\u2019t tattered and dirty. He didn\u2019t look like he had been walking long. He was well-dressed and he was well-spoken. Was he mad because he had felt looked down upon by others? It didn\u2019t seem that way, although I suppose that could have been the case. No, it seemed to me that his anger at people not dropping what they were doing to bend to his needs was more indicative of our society today. We live in a \u201cme-centered\u201d world. We want what we want and we want it now! We are told that what we want should come before everyone or everything else. \u201cDo what makes you happy!\u201d \u201cGo for it!\u201d \u201cJust do it!\u201d Unfortunately when we think and act this way we lose sight of something very important\u2026 this life isn\u2019t just about us and our needs or wants.\nAs Christians we are encouraged to see Christ in everyone, even those who don\u2019t act like Christ. Sometimes that is hard. We are often so caught up in looking at the outside of a person- his appearance, his attitude, his words- that we fail to look inside of him. We fail to see how he has been influenced over the years by the things that have happened in his life\u2026 things that sometimes harden a soul. If we are to believe that all people are created in the image and likeness of God doesn\u2019t it make sense that sometimes we might have to dig through the outer layer to find God buried deep within?\nAs we fall further into the abyss of the \u201cme society\u201d we fall away from what truly matters. We are not put on this earth to put our own wants first and to try to get ahead, no, we are here to help others and to glorify God with our thoughts, words and actions. We must look for Christ in everyone we meet but we must also be Christ to everyone we meet as well. We have to strip away our selfishness and encourage others to do the same. It is the only way to truly meet Christ along the road we travel.\nmfritz12 June 6, 2014 faternal correction, helping others, Jesus, putting others first, spiritual growth\nPrevious Previous post: The Boy Who Loved Chocolate\nNext Next post: Mrs. Buttersworth\u2026 a Kid\u2019s Best Friend and Confidant",

I have been married for 19 years and have 2 children, Tia-16 , and Mathew -11. My life here is very lonely. Since I don\u2019t speak german well &come from a different culture, I have no friends here. My marriage is also not happy. I try my best to bring up our kids in the catholic faith, but they seem to be slowly drifting away from the faith especially my daughter who is immersed in secular thinking\u2026I had a small job for 2years, which I lost recently. I must admit that I\u2019m not very smart or able. I\u2019m shy , lack confidence and melancholic.\nPlease do pray for me.\nI\u2019ve read some of your articles in catholic sistas. You are so blessed to have such a wonderful family!\nI\u2019d be grateful for your prayer support.\nDear Leena, I am truly sorry for the crosses that you bear. We also have a child who has drifted from the faith and it truly breaks my heart. I will keep you, your marriage, and your family in my prayers. If you visit my Facebook page you can contact me there further if you\u2019d like to keep in touch. That way it won\u2019t be in a public forum. Many, many prayers for you.\nDear Michelle, please keep my family in prayer. As hard as I try, I constantly feel that I fail and I worry that I will not have the strength like the Saints in heaven that we both know to weather the storm. Please pray for God\u2019s wisdom not just for me but for my husband as well to keep our family intact. A very beloved woman once told me, \u201cnever pray for patience, as God will give you the trails to go with it.\u201d I always ask for wisdom, guidance and protection. I could use the extra prayers in faith. Thank you, Melissa\nOh Melissa,\nI am praying for you and for your family. I know that sometimes it seems that the whole world is against you and that there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Those long, dark nights are the hardest on one\u2019s soul; even the Saints in heaven often felt like they weren\u2019t enough, that they were failures, and that they were alone. What made them Saints was not that they did it all right but that they continued to do their very best all the while trusting in God\u2019s love and mercy. I have no doubt you are every bit as strong, wise, and amazing as the Saints that we adore so much. I\u2019m joining you in prayer for you, for your husband, and for your family as well as sending my love to you. You are not alone, you are not a failure, and you are so much stronger than you know.",

        "raw_content": "#PreFridayReads: The Arrangement by Sarah Dunn\nBy Tall Poppy Writer Sally Koslow\nHow Far Would You Go to Spice Up Your Marriage?\nThe Arrangement by Sarah Dunn may be my favorite book of the summer. Its wit bounces off this page, but it\u2019s not just laugh-out-loud clever, it\u2019s smart, realistically exploring the price one couple pays while trying to put some sizzle back into a marriage they fear is going stale. The novel\u2019s focus may be sex-sex-sex, but intimacy is described in terms both delightfully sweet and rocking funny, neither explicit nor especially erotic. The setting is a bucolic village along the Hudson River where a transgender kindergarten teacher is causing divisions in the local populace, which includes a billionaire who relaxes by watching YouTube videos of a towel-folding Marie Kondo wannabe and the main female character\u2019s outspoken BFF, Sunny Bang.\nDid I mention that this book is hilarious? Yet despite its comedic tang, the portrait of what it\u2019s like to raise an autistic child is one of The Arrangement\u2019s strengths. Owen and Lucy are the forty-something parents of a dearly loved on-the-spectrum son who tries their patience to the point of exhaustion. Even those of us whose kids are neurologically typical can relate to Dunn\u2019s descriptions of parenthood.\nSome of you may remember the author from her earlier two novels, including her debut in 2004, The Big Love, (not to be confused with the terrific television series about multiple marriage in the Mormon community.) I loved her work then, and I love it now. When not writing fiction, Ms. Dunn\u2019s is the executive producer of the popular TV sitcom, \u201cAmerican Housewife.\u201d\nSally, former editor-in-chief of McCall\u2019s, is the author of the novel The Widow Waltz (2014), the nonfiction book Slouching Toward Adulthood: How to Let Go So Your Kids Can Grow Up (2013), and many other books.

This included tutoring a student in close reading and Oxbridge interview technique. He was subsequently offered a place to study English Language and Literature at Magdalen College.\nI also taught English, debating and critical thinking to secondary school students (13-16) while in Sixth Form, and established a Literary Society, which curated lectures and talks to test and expand the educational horizon of engaged students from 13 years old and above, and to bring different year groups together in discussion to learn from one another.\nI also write regularly for the Literary Review, and am a Young Trustee of the London Library.\nB.A. \u2013 English Language and Literature, Magdalen College, Oxford \u2013 1st Class; Gibbs Prize, topped year with work on contemporary literature, dissertation published in field-leading academic journal\nInternational Baccalaureate \u2013 43/45 (equivalent to 5A* at A-level), King Edward\u2019s School, Birmingham\nHigher Level \u2013 English (7/7), History (7), Philosophy (7)\nStandard Level \u2013 Ancient Greek (7), Maths (7), Physics (7), Theory of Knowlegde (3/3)\nGCSE \u2013 10 A*, King Edward\u2019s School Birmingham\nEnglish Language, English Literature, History, Maths, Geography, Dual Science, Ancient Greek, French, Religious Studies,\nRan Florio Society at Magdalen College, a prestigious poetry society dating back to the 1940s\nAwarded Scholarship from Magdalen College to study Renaissance art at the British Institute of Florence (Summer, 2014)\nExtensive debating experience; winner of numerous inter-school competitions; Ranked 2nd (/600) nationally in ESU Mace 2011 debating competition\nI aim to make myself redundant. That may sound odd, but I believe the end goal of one-to-one tuition should be that the student is confident and independent enough to mean that the tutor is no longer necessary. And this is not because we have simply worked through an area of difficulty together, or solved a particular problem. No, tutoring in my eyes is much more important than merely finding solutions to narrow questions: good teaching is about helping the student develop the skills, the frame of mind, the confidence, the curiosity and the ambition that will allow them to approach any issue \u2013 whether in the classroom or the outside world \u2013 independently, intelligently and successfully. Yes, my tuition will help you in what to think (for certain exam boards, say) but, more importantly, I will help teach you how to think \u2013 for I believe that engendering curiosity, a questioning mind and a healthy skepticism are key elements of a fully-rounded and productive education.\nLearning should be fun, and teaching should respond to the particular needs and personality of each student. That\u2019s why listening is as important as talking when it comes to teaching effectively, and why I tailor my tuition to each individual student, rather than taking a set lesson-structure from off the shelf. This flexibility and attention to the requirements of the individual allow for faster \u2013 and more enjoyable \u2013 progress. So often all that is missing is the confidence to believe in your own ability; my tutoring aims to give you that confidence, and help you be the best you can be, not just in an exam, but beyond.\n\u201cMy lesson with Frank was great and I feel very confident about writing my personal statement. I would rate him a 5.\u201d\n\u201c5/5! Frank really was invaluable for the Elat preparation. He came incredibly well prepared and immediately identified areas where my daughter could improve quickly and straight forwardly. He was professional, focussed and encouraging.\u201c\nIn my spare time I\u2019m a freelance writer, and my work has previously appeared in the Times Literary Supplement, The Week, The Amorist, and on the BBC!",

Cook however didn't disclose any specific timeline for this launch.\nThis launch signals the end of Amazon's long fight with rival Apple. E-commerce giant Amazon had stopped selling Apple TV and Google Chromecast on its platform from October 2015 and in June last year, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos had said this was due to lack of \"acceptable business terms\".\nApart from this, Apple also made a series of software and hardware announcements at WWDC 2017 including new software updates from its iOS, macOS and watchOS operating systems. It also launched a new 10.5-inch iPad Pro and entered the growing field of voice-controlled speakers with the launch of HomePod.\nTags : Internet, Amazon Prime Video, wwdc 2017, WWDC, video streaming, video, Apple, Amazon",

She wonders what\u2019s going on and what exactly she did wrong. In most cases, if she tries to talk to him about it, he\u2019ll act surprised or say he has no idea what she means. If you are in this position with the man you\u2019re interested in, you know it can leave you second guessing yourself. You\u2019ll feel unsure of everything. You\u2019ll question whether he didn\u2019t enjoy himself when you two were making love or if he ever really cared for you at all. It\u2019s difficult and if you leave it unaddressed, chances are that the distance he\u2019s trying to attain will be a permanent thing. You don\u2019t want that so you need to first understand why he\u2019s acting this way and also it\u2019s important to learn what you can do to change it.\nUnderstanding what it means when a man is distant after sex isn\u2019t nearly as complicated as you may think. Some women automatically assume it means that he\u2019s withdrawing because he\u2019s so overcome with emotion. That\u2019s not the case at all. Typically if a man starts to pull back after you two have slept together it\u2019s because he\u2019s questioning the timing. If you two just started dating and you were already intimate, that may impress him in the moment, but afterwards it won\u2019t. As soon as it\u2019s over he\u2019ll start wondering whether your willingness to share yourself so openly is something you regularly do.\nMen don\u2019t want to feel as though the women they are with are promiscuous. They don\u2019t ever want to wonder whether you\u2019ve slept with other men as soon in your relationship with them. If you did it with him, he\u2019s going to assume you\u2019ve done it with other men too.\nObviously you can\u2019t go back and undo the intimacy. That line has been crossed already. If this man is someone you believe you want to build a relationship with, you have to get to work changing his image of you.\nTo begin with it means no more sex until you\u2019ve established a new dynamic with him. You\u2019re going to take a step backwards and date the man. Since he\u2019s become distant, don\u2019t count on him asking you out again. He may but chances are that he\u2019s doing it because he wants to be intimate, and little more. You have to set the new guidelines for the relationship. Meet him at your date destination instead of him picking you up. Don\u2019t go back to his place for now. Just steer clear of any situations that would put you in a position of him expecting you to have sex.\nIf you can do this for a few weeks, and get to know him on a basic level, the rushed intimacy will become a thing of the past. Work on establishing a real emotional connection with him and the fact that you slept with him so soon won\u2019t seem so unflattering anymore.\nPrevious articleHow Are Lottery Winnings Taxed in Europe?\nNext articleWhy is it That Men Who Are \"Uncut\" (Uncircumcised) Typically Have Bigger Penises?",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb World \u00bb Malaysian to hold general election soon: PM Najib\nMalaysian to hold general election soon: PM Najib\nAlthough Najib did not specify the date of the elections, the prime minister said the polls would be the determiner whether the UMNO-party led government would remain in power or people would choose a new government led by opposition DAP.\nBy AuthorPTI | Published: 1st Dec 2016 6:12 pmUpdated: 1st Dec 2016 8:51 pm\nMalaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak. Photo: AFP\nKuala Lumpur: Malaysia\u2019s embattled Prime Minister Najib Razak on Thursday said the elections were imminent and only his party could look after the interests of majority Muslims as well as minorities, including ethnic Indians.\n63-year-old Najib\u2019s ruling coalition of Barisan Nasional Party\u2019s mandate ends in June 2018.\nNajib has been at the helm despite allegations of financial scandal involving him and the state fund 1 MDB.\nHe has denied any wrong doing in the scandal.\nThe BN government would remain fair and uphold moderation in looking after the interests of all Malaysians, irrespective of race and religion, Najib told the AGM of the United Malay National Party (UMNO) which is the majority party in the Barisan coalition. The others are Malaysian Chinese Association and the Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC).\nEmphasising further on his statement, Najib noted that the UMNO General Assembly 2016 was for all delegates to receive messages and advices as preparation for next polls.\n\u201cIf only the Malays and the Bumiputra know the nightmare that will befall them, I am confident that they will hold firmly to UMNO as the only party that can defend their ancestry\u2019s rights and fight for their future,\u201d he said in his fiery speech to over 2,000 delegates.\nThe majority Malays, who are all Muslims, enjoy Bumiputra or sons of the soil privileges.\nNajib, keeping a firmer grip of the party he has led since 2009, was in much better spirit after a tumultuous session last year following which he sacked his deputy and a party vice-president resigned.\n\u201cGod willing, we will fight until the death and until the last drop of blood,\u201d Najib told delegates.\nHe attacked former premier and staunch critic Dr Mahathir Mohamad, calling the latter\u2019s alliance with the opposition DAP, PKR, Parti Amanah Negara, Bersih as \u201cultimate betrayal\u201d.\n\u201cThis is one form of ultimate betrayal to UMNO, the race and the nation,\u201d he said.\nNajib promised non-Muslims that his government would conduct a thorough study on the proposals to empower the Shariah Courts to prevent any \u201cdual punishment\u201d system.\n\u201cI ask you, please everyone do not politicise this issue because it is a private member\u2019s motion, which will eventually be taken over by the Federal Government.\n\u201cTo the non-Muslims, worry not, because you will not be subjected to these laws, and the Government is studying the fine prints of the proposed amendments to ensure that there are no elements of dual punishment,\u201d he said.\nNajib, who is Barisan chairman, said there is no other Government like Barisan which has managed the economy well.\nHe said the recent billion-dollar investments from Germany and China were a reflection of a well-managed economy by the UMNO-led Government.",

        "raw_content": "From the day job: Bats vs Supes and Norse sagas now\nPosted on April 4, 2016 by Teodor Reljic under Books, Comics, Films, Interview\nSignal to nothing: Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman in Zack Snyder\u2019s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice\nI had a couple of fun articles out in last Sunday\u2019s edition of MaltaToday.\nOne of them is a review of that obscure indie film that\u2019s garnering obscene amounts of critical attention, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.\nThe other was actually satisfying to research and execute: an interview with Icelandic poet and fiction writer Ger\u00f0ur Kristn\u00fd, who will be visiting our shores on the occasion of the Campus Book Festival, taking place at the alma mater this midweek.\nThe fight of the century? Hardly. Loving Batfleck\u2019s chunky digs though.\nBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was, to my eyes, clumsy and misguidedly grandiloquent as its chunky title would suggest. And while there\u2019s no love lost between me and Zack Snyder \u2013 much to his pained consternation, I\u2019m sure \u2013 I didn\u2019t go into the film as a hater, and wanted to enjoy it as, at least, the kind of omnishambles mess of the Jupiter Ascending ilk.\nAlas, the film was a plethora of missed opportunities for fun and games because it was clearly all about setting up a future franchise to compete with Marvel\u2019s already far-advanced \u201cshared universe\u201d, and while the film got a lot of flack for being joyless due to Snyder\u2019s continued efforts to ape Christopher Nolan\u2019s billions-raking reinvention of Batman, I think the real reason it felt bereft of the adrenaline jolt of pulpy fun was that it wasn\u2019t in fact allowed to be pulp because it needed to do double-duty in setting up DC\u2019s response to the Marvel behemoth, asap.\nGer\u00f0ur Kristn\u00fd \u2022 Photo by \u00de\u00f3rd\u00eds \u00c1g\u00fastsd\u00f3ttir\nGer\u00f0ur Kristn\u00fd told me quite a few interesting things, but perhaps the most striking are the following:\n\u201cThe original meaning of the word stupid (\u2018heimskur\u2019) in Icelandic refers to the one that is always at home (\u2018heim\u2019). People believed it would bring wisdom to leave your island and travel. We still believe so.\u201d\n\u201cComing from a country not many people know gives you opportunity to reinvent yourself, make up stories about yourself and your country.\u201d\nThere was also some stuff about the Icelandic landscape and the island\u2019s much vaunted literary culture \u2013 and what I loved is that no bubbles were burst in my conception of what looks to be a truly magical place, which I hope I\u2019ll get to visit some day soon.",

        "raw_content": "Another Statue Of James Garfield Attacked In Ohio\nA statue of President James Garfield had been beheaded at Hiram College in Hiram, Ohio.\nHere is the link for Hiram College.\nAbove you see a picture of the headless statue.\nHere is a report on the issue from the Zanesville Times-Recorder.\nLast year this blog reported that I know who spray-painted the anarchy symbol 15 years ago on the statue of James Garfield in Downtown Cincinnati. Look at the base at the statue and you can still see where the symbol was painted.\nIt\u2019s crazy. It seems that every 15 years or so someone in Ohio attacks a statue of James Garfield.\nWhat can be done to stop these attacks! In 2024 another one of these monuments may well be assaulted.\nHere is very good information about James Garfield. Mr. Garfield was our 20th President. He served only in 1881 because he was both sworn-in and assassinated in that year.\nThe link above is from the Miller Center for Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.\nFrom Mr. Garfield\u2019s Miller Center profile\u2014\nThe youngest of five children born on a poor farm on the outskirts of Cleveland, Ohio, Garfield is perhaps the poorest man ever to have become President. Supporting himself as a part-time teacher, a carpenter, and even a janitor through college, he was an idealistic young man who identified with the antislavery tenants of the new Republican Party. Garfield studied law on his own and passed the Ohio bar exams in 1861 before throwing himself into politics and winning a seat in the Ohio legislature. Garfield was a loyal Unionist who built a reputation as a Civil War hero that earned him a seat in the House of Representatives without ever having campaigned\u2026\u2026Since Garfield was struck down four months into his term, historians can only speculate as to what his presidency might have been like. Garfield was assassinated by Charles Julius Guiteau, an emotionally disturbed man who had failed to gain an appointment in Garfield\u2019s administration. Garfield did have time to appoint his cabinet, however, and in doing so, he refused to cave in to Stalwart pressure, enraging Senator Conkling, who resigned in protest. Had Garfield served his term, historians speculate that he would have been determined to move toward civil service reform and carry on in the clean government tradition of President Hayes. He also supported education for black southerners and called for African American suffrage, as he stressed in his inaugural address. Unfortunately, he is best remembered for his assassination. And although his killer was insane, Garfield\u2019s greatest legacy was the impact of his death on moving the nation to reform government patronage.\u201d\nI will say, as much as I like the Miller Center for information about the Presidents,I doubt Mr. Garfield would have done as much for black folks as it is suggested here. Reconstruction-era Presidents talked a good game. But in most cases they did not deliver.\nHere is a useful history of Reconstruction from PBS.\nMay 19, 2009 Posted by Neil Aquino | Uncategorized\t| Cincinnati, Hiram College, Hiram Ohio, History, James Garfield, Reconstruction, Zanesville Times Recorder | 2 Comments\nCreation Story Of Reconstruction Era Blacks\nBelow is a creation story as told by black preachers in Reconstruction era America. It comes from the book The Age of Lincoln by Orville Vernon Burton.\n\u201cThroughout the southern states whites heard a different version of the creation story. In His own image, African American preachers declared, God created Adam and Eve black. They turned white, and the hair straightened, from sin and guilt, from encountering God after eating the forbidden fruit.\u201d\nAs you can guess, stories like this did not go over well with southern whites. Black preachers, black folks, and whites sympathetic to black progress in the years after the Civil War were routinely harassed, attacked and killed in the post Civil War South.\nReconstruction was a time of great potential and tragic failure. It\u2019s a time in our history that merits study by all Americans. While 2008 is a better day than 1875, you can still see today many echos of a brutal past.\nPBS has good information on Reconstruction.\nEric Foner\u2019s Reconstruction: America\u2019s Unfinished Revolution, 1863-1877 is a leading history of this time.\nIt remains hard to imagine that all that blood was shed in the Civil War and black folks still had to endure 100 more years of Jim Crow.\nNothing is so lousy that it can not come true. The work of freedom is never done.\nOctober 4, 2008 Posted by Neil Aquino | Books, History\t| Age Of Lincoln, Books, Civil War, Eric Foner, History, Jim Crow, Orville Vernon Burton, Reconstruction | Leave a comment",

For example, Women at the HeArt offered 4 artists the chance to work alongside more experienced artists in the field and gain valuable hands on delivery experience in a live workshop situation. We carried this idea forward into our Modelling Change project and offered one \u2018mentee\u2019 role to a newly qualified artist to learn and develop their skills, who ended up taking the lead role of visual artist during Spring 2015.\nDuring 2009/2010, \u201cExperts on the Ground\u201d was our professional learning programme for both creative practitioners and professionals who support young people and designed to bring these two sectors together for joint delivery and learning from each other.\nWe are always looking at new ways of developing our arts based approaches, exploring new ways of engaging and of course sharing our experiences with as wide an audience as possible. We are keen to \u2018spread the word\u2019 and encourage others to use creative practice within the criminal justice sector. This takes many forms \u2013 through conferences, publications, membership of wider groups and our on going brokerage role.\nWe are members of the National Alliance for Arts in Criminal Justice (www.artsincriminaljustice.org.uk) which is supported by the Ministry of Justice and the Monument Trust. NAACJ is made up of arts organisations that work in the criminal justice sector, delivering arts programmes in prisons, probation settings, detention centres, secure hospitals and the community. Judy Munday, Arts Manager, is a Mentor for their on going mentoring scheme and has mentored 2 artists who are bringing their artistic skills and experience into the criminal justice environment for the first time.\nOur Chair, Lord Blair, chaired the launch at the South bank Centre in London of a report by New Philanthropy Capital entitled \u2018 Unlocking Value: The economic benefit of the arts in criminal justice\u2019. Download a copy .\nWe continue to explore, support and evaluate a number of different arts projects in the future. In collaboration with the many creative agents and organisations we work closely with, we continue to champion innovative and challenging ways of employing the arts to inspire and transform \u2013 as a positive healing tool.\nExperts on the Ground was a professional learning programme for creative practitioners and those who work with young people in youth and youth offending settings. It was jointly delivered by Thames Valley [\u2026]\nThe LifeCrafts Conference held in March 2008 at the River and Rowing Museum, Henley was a huge success, attracting a mix of artists, practitioners, youth support staff and local authority [\u2026]\nOur website A Different View holds the evidence gathered from all of our projects with young people at risk to contribute to the body of knowledge about how we evaluate [\u2026]",

She needed someone to help her understand and walk with her through it all.\nAfter talking with her, we worked together to develop her brand story of why she decided to launch this venture. We came to find it was a very personal and touching reason. Her father, who passed of health related issues, inspired her to eat healthier and realize, what you put on your body, is just as important as what you put in your body. After developing her story, we talked about the image she wanted to portray to her existing and potential clients.\nTCG developed a brand identity, including a logo design with color palette, web design and social media development, product labels and promotional items.

But it is important to not lose more teachers now.\nVoting for the raise sends the message that teachers in Dolores are needed and appreciated, and the community is working to address the district\u2019s issues.",

        "raw_content": "You are at:Home\u00bbLeadership Spotlight\u00bbLeadership Spotlight: Q&A with Borise Cota\nBy Brian Hagman February 5, 2018 No Comments\nBorise Cota is Western Regional Sales Manager Aftermarket for Akebono Brake Corporation. Akebono is a global manufacturing organization offering a wide range of brake friction materials and foundation brake assemblies, including disc brake calipers and drum brakes. In the following Q&A, Borise shares with us his valuable insights on the topics of leadership and success.\nBC: I\u2019m responsible for sales and customer relations in the western half of the U.S., and I also oversee the Canadian market.\nBC: During an interview I was conducting, a prospective hire asked me, \u201cWhat kind of manager are you?\u201d My response was, \u201cI\u2019m not quite sure what kind of manager I am, but I know what kind of manager I don\u2019t want to be.\u201d My job is to give my associates the tools needed to be successful, give praise when it\u2019s deserved, and guidance when something needs to be changed. I also believe that trust is extremely important between management and associates. In today\u2019s market, there are so many external occurrences out of our control that can influence our job performance. Our careers need to be something more than just a job.\nBC: While there are many challenges, the one I see that could change our industry is the influence online companies have on pricing. They continue to challenge everyone involved to race each other to the bottom in pricing. Profits for the manufacturers and the brick and mortar distributors continue to shrink. Service industry demands, like training classes, promotions and product change overs, are still requested from the manufacturers and brick and mortar distributors, adding to the strain.\nFor the companies like Akebono that have taken the time to build a strong brand image around ultra premium offerings, that image in today\u2019s world has, for many consumers, been reduced to a price. A start to changing this cycle is to implement Minimum Advertised Pricing (MAP). Value must be reintroduced in the buying decision, not just price.\nBC: Passion. Is this candidate excited about this job, their future, and the possibilities? We can teach them about our products and the messages we want conveyed, but what I get excited about is the style in which all of that will be delivered to our customers. You can\u2019t teach passion. In Akebono\u2019s Aftermarket division, we are fortunate to have a strong team of individuals who are passionate about the company and in turn have built very solid, and sometimes personal, relationships with our longstanding customers over the years.\nBC: My first job in the industry was a counterman in retail at 10,000 Auto Parts in El Cajon, California. I helped build the first store. I built shelves, checked stock in and set it up. I built displays for the walls and learned to run a skin packing machine which we used to make smaller displays. The owner\u2019s philosophy was if the product is in a box then the customer can\u2019t see it. Anything on the sales floor needed to be on display. A valuable lesson early in my career.\nBC: On my first job as a manufacturer\u2019s representative, I was on a hot streak for sales. My manager told me to remember that all waves eventually reach shore and break. There are going to be good times and bad times. You need to learn to manage all of them.\nBC: I\u2019m not the book reader in my family; my wife is. But, I will read almost every industry magazine available, along with all of the car magazines. I have started reading on the many flights I have been taking. Someone gave me a huge list of books that I downloaded onto my iPad, and I started at the \u201cA\u2019s\u201d and am working my way down the list. I do tend to enjoy genres such as action, mystery and magic. Not sure what to make of that.\nBC: From Lee Iacocca: \u201cLead, follow, or get out of the way.\u201d This comes from my experiences with many managers and different corporate styles.\nBC: We will see more acquisitions and the shrinking of the number of distribution players. The evolution will take place at the service end. Who is going to work on our vehicles? We have a serious problem getting younger people attracted to the service industry. High schools for the most part have discontinued auto shop classes. The same for most junior colleges.\nOur industry must somehow show that we have great jobs that can pay good money. We must find a way to elevate the image of the service tech. We can make great vehicles, but someone still needs to service them. At Akebono, we have plans to launch more initiatives with junior technicians and students so we can incite that passion I talked about earlier, and get them interested in a career in service or at Akebono.\nBC: I\u2019m the most senior associate with Akebono in the Aftermarket division, beginning my career with the company in 2000. I was fortunate to be one of the three \u201cfounding fathers\u201d involved with the creation of this division.\nPrevious ArticleNew Joint Cooperation Announced at AsiaBrake 2018\nNext Article Mitsubishi Issues Recalls for Sunroofs, Brake Problems",

        "raw_content": "Chapter 9: Top things to remember about your brand voice\nWhat you\u2019ll learn: It\u2019s time for you to start your brand voice journey. This chapter contains parting advice to keep you on track.\nAll right dear reader, it\u2019s time to get serious about brand voices. In this book, you\u2019ve learned all the basics of creating an amazing brand voice for your company or your clients. Don\u2019t let these tools rust away in the back of a dirty garage. Take them out and make something amazing.\nYou\u2019ve seen that creating a brand voice can be a challenge. It takes a lot of work, and the journey from conception to implementation can take several months. But, the effort is well worth it.\nThomas Edison didn\u2019t regret inventing the lightbulb (he\u2019s a bad example though, because he was a jerk). Albert Einstein didn\u2019t regret discovering the theory of relativity (yeah, Einstein\u2019s a baller). It was his crowning achievement and pushed others in his field toward great discoveries. But, it obviously wasn\u2019t easy, it was the culmination of a lot of hard work.\nIn the same way, having a fully formed brand voice is the culmination of all your time and effort. But, you won\u2019t regret it. You\u2019ll be proud of your accomplishment and see great changes in your business as a result of it. Additionally, by creating a brand voice you\u2019ll make writing easier for every content producer at your company and delight thousands of prospects with your unique voice. Creating your own brand voice is absolutely worth it.\nLet\u2019s go over the benefits of a brand voice one more time, just in case you need a little bit more motivation. There\u2019s a lot, but here are the main ones:\nBrands with a voice can cut through the noise and stand out in everything that they do.\nYou\u2019ll be able to communicate new and old ideas in a way that feels phresh and original.\nYour brand voice will forge an emotional connection with consumers causing them to react to your content instead of comparing it logically.\nA brand voice creates an entire company culture that can build fierce loyalty in your employees and your customers, ensuring that they stick by your side.\nYes, a brand voice can do all of these things and so much more (cue infomercial music). But, to get all of this, you need to put in the work.\nThink of it this way, right now you probably use a website, blog, business cards, social media posts, print materials, and emails to keep your company moving forward. All these little pieces of content reach out like tiny sales fingers that draw in consumers. When you create a brand voice, you don\u2019t lose or change your existing inroads; you make them more effective.\nImagine if your website, blog, business cards, social media posts, print materials, and emails, were all just a few percent more effective. What would that do for your bottom line? How would it affect your company\u2019s visibility? Would it help you to achieve your strategic goals? With a brand voice, you can materialize these results in a way that\u2019s organic and sustainable. You can up your game and intensify what you\u2019re already doing right.\nA long-term content strategy is non-existent at most companies, and if there is one, it\u2019s generally not all that consistent. Having a brand voice in place simplifies your content planning and gives you a clear marketing strategy.\nWith a brand voice, you no longer have to guess at what your customers will respond to or how to write. You\u2019ll have the research, guidelines, and tools needed to churn out amazing content quickly. This also keeps your content and marketing consistent across the years. Obviously, there will be tweaks and changes over time. But no matter what, you\u2019ll keep being the same company that customers are loyal to.\nThe lesson? If you want a simple marketing strategy that you can count on, create a brand voice.\nContent is an ocean, don\u2019t drown\nEvery day more and more content is produced. Some bad, some good, and some amazing. You can compare all of this content to a complex ocean with currents, ecosystems, and more variety than you can imagine. Will your company\u2019s content float? Or will it sink like the Titanic?\nIf your content can\u2019t stand out in this ocean, then how can you expect your business to stand out from the competition? How can you expect to make any real impact with your marketing?\nTo create content that succeeds and a business that sustainable, you need to build it right from the ground up. You need a brand that people will fall in love with and be loyal to. To achieve long-term success, you need a brand voice!\nEnzo the Final Battle\nOver the past few months Enzo has learned a lot. He understands his customers, their challenges, and the way that his firm has made an impact. He knows what the competition is doing and he knows how to be different. Most importantly he knows what he believes in and he has a voice that represents it.\nAfter launching his brand voice, Enzo noticed a fundamental shift in his employees. They were more engaged in their work since they understood the positive effect it had and they were better communicators. They knew which terms clients did and didn\u2019t understand and the types of examples that clicked with them.\nWhen Enzo grew his business to 15 employees, he struggled to stand out in the market. All the other firms his size offered the same services and had similar experience. His sales pitch was exactly the same as there\u2019s. Now he had a way to stand out and appeal to the customers that he loved working with.\nIn the following months, Enzo saw that their more focused blog and social media posts were getting more shares and likes than before. Prospects would call based on something they read on his site. They felt understood and thought that the Enzo\u2019s company was different from all the other firms out there.\nEnzo had a meaningful impact on people\u2019s lives, kept growing his business, and made his employees feel engaged in the business. He did this by creating a brand voice.\nI\u2019d like to tell you that Enzo\u2019s story is real and he\u2019s a good buddy. But, the truth is that his fictional story is designed to show the real-world effect that a brand voice can have.\nEnzo\u2019s story can be your story. Will you be another voice shouting the same message in a crowd? Or, will you share a message that\u2019s meaningful and unmistakably your own? I think we can agree that the second option is the logical choice. To achieve that effect, you need to create a brand voice.",

        "raw_content": "When it comes to infertility, there are many things to consider. Although many couples do not want to discuss their battle with infertility, one in every eight couples will struggle to conceive. Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive or maintain a pregnancy, after trying for 12 months without medical assistance. Medical assistance can include IVF( In vitro fertilization), egg donation, surrogacy, as well as IUI (Intrauterine insemination). As a naturopathic doctor, I work with patients to provide them with the most optimal reproductive health to help support a healthy pregnancy.\nIn order to optimize my patient\u2019s chances of conceiving, I take into consideration the general health and reproductive health of both partners. as often times infertility is due to a combination of factors not just one. I also take into consideration environmental exposures as well as micronutrient status. In my experience, supporting the body with proper nutrients can really help optimize your body for pregnancy.\nTOP NUTRIENTS FOR FEMALE INFERTILITY:\nFolate \u2013 protects genes during rapid cell division (via methylation of DNA). This is important because during the development of a healthy embryo there is an extremely high rate of cell division. Deficiency in folate leads to a rise in homocysteine. Elevated homocysteine levels can cause damage to reproductive cells.\nVitamin B6 & B12\u2013 Both of which are necessary to convert toxic homocysteine into a benign (non- toxic) form. Lower levels of homocysteine have been linked to a better change of pregnancy.\nVitamin D \u2013 Higher levels of Vitamin D (in the range of 60-80) have been linked to a better success rate of IVF. Vitamin D also influences production of sex hormones including estradiol and progesterone.\nVitamin C- has been shown to increase serum progesterone levels and has even been seen to induce ovulation in certain women. Vitamin C also enhances the effect of the fertility medication clmiphine (clomid)\nVitamin E\u2013 protects reproductive cells (follicles).\nSelenium \u2013 deficiency in selenium have belinked to an increase risk of miscarriage as well as infertility. In one (small but powerful) trial, 100% of infertile women achieved pregnancy after supplementation of selenium. Although more studies are needed, this is a great example of the benefits of selenium.\nGlutathione \u2013 protects eggs (whether they are fertilizd or not) from damage caused by reactive oxygen species. Glutathione also has protective effects on follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) on embryonic development.\nN- acetyl- Cysteine\u2013 can improve ovulation and pregnancy rates in women struggling with infertility due to a condition known as PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) that did not respond to fertility medications. It is also a precursor to glutathione.\nAntioxidant Status\u2013 reproductive cells, including embryos are very susceptible to damage from oxidative stress which is why adequate antioxidant status is so critical in fertility. Low antioxidants have been linked to an increase risk of infertility and miscarriage.\nMinerals\u2013 several enzymes that are needed to protect a women\u2019s reproductive organs are dependent on trace elements including zinc, copper and magnesium. One example of this is the enzyme superoxide dismutase.\nTOP NUTRIENTS FOR MALE INFERTILITY:\nGlutathione\u2013 a cofactor to the enyzme (glutathione peroxidase) helps ensure the structural integrity of sperm. Deficiency in glutathione can decrease sperm motility preventing the sperm from reaching its destination.\nCoenzyme 10 \u2013 this powerful antioxidant protects sperm from damage and helps the sperm remain viable. There is even research directly coorelating CoQ10 levels and sperm count and motility.\nCarnitine \u2013 which transports fatty acids is important for male fertility as fatty acids are the preferred energy source for sperm to enter into cells.\nCopper and Manganese\u2013 are both cofactors for the enzyme superoxide dismutase which cans as a powerful antioxidant protecting sperm from oxidative damage.\nDIY Natural Treatments, Dr. Zen, Fertility, Therapies, Uncategorized\nFertility, getting pregnant, infertility",

Henri was shocked by this prodigious indifference.\u201d Written by the contemporary historian Fontanieu\nDowager Queen Catherine de\u2019Medici was doing everything within her power to find a bride for her son Henri. Under consideration were Dona Juana, sister of King Philip II of Spain, Philip\u2019s daughter and Henri\u2019s niece Isabella Clara Eugenia, Henri\u2019s widowed sisters-in-law Mary Queen of Scots and Elizabeth of Austria, Queen Elizabeth I of England or even a Swedish or Danish princess. None of these possibilities panned out. Then Henri did the unthinkable. He chose his own bride, the daughter of a minor house of French nobility.\nBecause Henri was the third son of King Henri II, there was little chance he would sit on the throne of France. In 1573, the Polish kingdom was looking for a ruler and elected Henri as their king. In the autumn, Henri traveled to Krakow. On the way, he stopped at the court of Duke Charles III of Lorraine who was married to his sister Claude. Claude had just given birth to a son and they were celebrating his christening. Because Claude was indisposed, the events were hosted by Catherine, the Countess of Vaud\u00e9mont.\nThe Countess of Vaud\u00e9mont\u2019s step-daughter Louise was a part of her train and came to the attention of Henri. She was nineteen years old, blond and beautiful. Henri requested Louise be introduced to him and give him a dance. The Duke of Lorraine presented his niece and Henri learned she was the daughter of the Count de Vaud\u00e9mont by his first wife. Henri rarely left the side of Louise during his stay in Nancy. He was charmed by her humbleness and gentle manners. Louise noticeably resembled Marie of Cl\u00e8ves, the wife of Henri\u2019s enemy the Prince de Cond\u00e9. Henri was obsessed with Marie and wanted to marry her even though she was already married and the relationship was idealized and platonic.\nLouise was born on April 30, 1553 at the castle of Nomeny. She was the daughter of Nicholas, Duke of Mercoeur and Count of Vaud\u00e9mont, a younger branch of the House of Lorraine and cousins of the House of Guise. Her mother was Marguerite d\u2019Egmont, sister of the Count of Egmont, ruler of the Netherlands who had been executed in 1568 upon the command of King Philip II of Spain. Louise\u2019s mother died within a year of her birth and her father married Jeanne de Savoye, sister of the Duke de Nemours. Jeanne was a caring, loving stepmother and ensured Louise was given a solid classical education. She introduced Louise to the court at Nancy at the age of ten.\nJeanne de Savoye died when Louise was fifteen and her father married for a third time. Catherine was the second daughter of the Duke d\u2019Aumale, son of Claude, first Duke de Guise by Louise de Brez\u00e9, daughter of Diane de Poitiers and her husband the Count de Maulevrier, Grand-S\u00e9n\u00e9chal of Normandy. These various wives produced many half-brothers and sisters for Louise.\nCatherine was only three years older than Louise and showed favoritism to her own children at the expense of Louise and her siblings by Jeanne de Savoye. Louise\u2019s father did nothing to mitigate the mistreatment and neglect at the hands of her stepmother. She was not allowed to participate in the diversions of her father\u2019s court. Catherine gave certain luxuries and privileges that were due to Louise to her own daughters. Louise was given a room in a distant part of the palace where she lived in isolation. Her main companion was Mademoiselle de Changy and she received visits from one of her step-brothers, the son of Jeanne de Savoy. These circumstances made Louise sedate and serious, gentle in temperament, sensitive and pious.\nAfter meeting Henri in 1573, Louise continued to pursue her secluded life, going on benevolent missions, praying, reading, making pilgrimages to the shrine of St. Nicholas, embroidering and studying. She had many inquiries for her hand, including the Count de Thor\u00e9, brother of the Marechal de Montmorency. She formed an attachment to Prince Paul of Salms but this alliance was opposed by her family because they wanted her to marry Fran\u00e7ois de Luxembourg, Count de Brienne.\nHenri\u2019s brother, King Charles IX died in May of 1574. Henri immediately returned to France to claim the throne. On October 30, 1574, the object of Henri\u2019s obsession Marie of Cl\u00e8ves died of a lung infection. Henri was broken-hearted but his mother assured him she would find him a wife and began negotiations to marry him to the Swedish princess Elisabeth Wasa. Henri had other ideas. He had decided in secret to marry Louise de Vaud\u00e9mont, the princess from Lorraine who resembled Marie of Cl\u00e8ves. But for now he kept quiet about his decision.\nIn January of 1575, Henri informed his mother of his plan. Catherine was disappointed in Henri\u2019s choice as Louise was not a princess and would not bring a large dowry to the arrangement. But she realized she could not change Henri\u2019s mind. Once Henri made known his decision, word was sent via private missive to the Duke de Lorraine. Hours later, Philippe Hurault de Cheverny and Michel Du Guast, Marquis de Montgauger arrived in Nancy to the astonishment of the Duke, his wife and Louise\u2019s parents. Du Guast\u2019s intention was to exchange rings of betrothal with Louise on behalf of the king and to deliver letters from Henri and Catherine de\u2019Medici to Louise and her parents and he spoke with the Duke of Lorraine and Louise\u2019s father most of the night.\nThe next day Louise had overslept and was taken by complete surprise when her stepmother entered her room to awaken her and curtsied to her three times. Louise thought it was a joke and that she was in trouble for staying in bed too long. When her father entered the room and bowed to her twice, she realized all was serious.\nLouise met with Du Guast and accepted the king\u2019s proposal. Three days later, Louise, her parents and the Duke of Lorraine left for Reims where Henri was to be crowned. Cheverny was sent to meet her in Sommi\u00e8res and gave her a letter from Henri, a portrait of the king and a casket of jewels. Louise seemed to barely acknowledge her enhanced position. Henri would observe this and was shocked by her indifference.\nHenri borrowed 100,000 \u00e9cus for upcoming expenses and traveled north from Avignon with his mother and the court, heading for Reims for his coronation and marriage. Henri was crowned at Reims on February 13, 1575. The day after the coronation, Louise and Henri were betrothed by the Cardinal de Guise. The marriage contract was finalized and Louise was given an ample dowry. A stately banquet was held and the marriage was to take place the next day.\nQueen Louise and King Henri III of France\nThe king set out to reinvent Louise in his own idealized image. Henri designed Louise\u2019s wedding gown as well as other costumes for the wedding. He arranged the jewels on her robe. Louise seemed to enjoy the attention he gave her. She was very patient and sweet-natured as Henri fussed over her. While he was sewing one of the precious gems to her wedding dress, he managed to prick her skin with the needle. Louise didn\u2019t even make a cry over the injury.\nHe insisted on dressing Louise\u2019s hair himself and placing the diadem on her head. After taking laborious time to make her hair just right, it was too late for the ceremony to happen as planned in the morning and the wedding took place in the evening with the ceremony officiated by the Cardinal de Bourbon. They were married under a canopy of cloth of gold at the portal of Notre Dame de Rheims. This was followed by a banquet, a ballet and a ball. The king and queen danced a minuet and then a Gaillarde to the great admiration of the spectators.\nIt is very rare to have a complete, fleshed out description of a medieval or Renaissance woman. The Venetian ambassador Jean Michel precisely described Louise saying:\n\u201cThe queen is a young princess of nineteen or twenty years. She is very handsome; her figure is elegant and of middle size rather than small, for her majesty has no need to wear high-heeled shoes to increase her height Her figure is slight, her profile beautiful, and her features majestic, agreeable and lively. Her eyes, though very pale, are full of vivacity; her complexion is fair, and the color of her hair pale yellow, which gives great content to the king, because that hue is rare in this country, where most of the ladies have black hair. The queen uses no cosmetics, nor any other artifice of the toilette. As for her moral virtues, she is gentle and affable. It is said that she is liberal and benevolent to the extent of her means. She has some wit and understanding, and her comprehension is ready. Her piety is fervent as that of her husband, and this is saying everything. She appears devoted to the king, and shows him great reverence; in short, it is impossible to witness a more complete union than that which now exists between their majesties.\u201d\nThey returned to the capital and for several weeks the queen and king visited the churches of Paris and offered alms. Louise and Henri made these visits often and the nuns enjoyed Louise\u2019s company. Immediately there was conflict in the marriage. Henri insisted that all the waiting women who had come with Louise be dismissed and he required he alone name all the replacements. Louise\u2019s parents also left.\nThe queen did not have the necessary persuasive powers to control her husband\u2019s behavior or exercise political power. The court seemed frivolous and dissipated. She was in awe of Henri and dreaded the behavior of his mignons (favorites). She did not have the energy or the experience to command a circle at court and was uneasy in the presence of her mistress of the robes, the Duchess de Nevers. She was overshadowed by her mother-in-law Catherine de\u2019Medici who refused to retire or yield to Louise her position as first lady of France.\nCatherine de\u2019Medici did everything she could to keep Henri and Louise apart to minimize the new queen\u2019s influence. Consequently Louise\u2019s position at court was marginal. Louise may have suffered a miscarriage in the spring of 1576, possibly ruining her chances of ever becoming pregnant again. Even so, Henri and Louise continued to hope for a child. In November of 1576, Louise and Henri established oratories in all the churches of Paris and made pilgrimage to them all, giving alms in the hopes of her getting pregnant. It appeared she was unable to produce a Valois heir and she became thin and suffered bouts of melancholy. But court chroniclers say Louise tolerated her awkward, humiliating and anonymous position with forbearance and grace.\nHenri purchased the castle of Olinville in the neighborhood of Chartres for Louise. She traveled with the king to Rouen and attended the opening of the Estates General at Blois in December of 1576. They entertained members of the Estates with balls, tilting at the ring, jousts, banquets, gambling and masquerades. These festivities were curtailed upon the death of Louise\u2019s father on January 28, 1577. After signing a peace treaty ending religious strife in February 1577, Henri and Louise went on an expedition to Blois.\nIt was well known at court that Louise and Henri rarely spent time together. She did appear with the king on important occasions. But Henri appeared to tire of Louise\u2019s company and preferred the camaraderie of his mignons and ladies-in-waiting. Yet he never named another woman ma\u00eetresse-en-titre. Louise sought the company of her women, prayed, visited hospitals, cared for the sick, performed acts of charity and patronized charitable foundations. The people of Paris came to appreciate her for her sweet nature, beauty and piety.\nA spectacular fete was staged in the Salle Bourbon in Paris on September 24, 1581. The occasion was the marriage of the Duke de Joyeuse to Louise\u2019s half-sister Marguerite. The most famous of the seventeen entertainments was the Ballet comique de la reine which was presented by Queen Louise. She had employed her own team of poets and musicians in creating the ballet. At the end of the show, Catherine de\u2019Medici compelled Louise to give Henri a gold medal depicting a dolphin swimming in the sea. It was an expression of her hope that the king and queen would have a male heir to inherit the throne.\nIn the spring of 1588, there was tension in the capital. Henri had no male heir and the next in line was Henri of Navarre who was openly Protestant. The Catholic League, led by the Guise family, didn\u2019t want to see a Protestant on the throne. The Duke de Guise had defied a royal ban from the city of Paris. In response, Henri brought in French and Swiss troops. The Parisians were incensed with foreign troops in the city and they set up barricades and fought back, killing some of the king\u2019s troops. Louise sided with Henri in the conflicts in open defiance of her own family.\nHostilities increased and the king fled to Chartres. Queen Louise and Catherine de\u2019 Medici were not allowed to leave the H\u00f4tel de la Reine. Security was tightened around the two queens and a new government headed by the Leaguers was installed. Catherine tried to mediate between the League and the king and although Henri was stubborn, he eventually capitulated. A Te Deum was celebrated at Notre-Dame Cathedral attended by the two queens. They were released from their captivity and traveled to Mantes to meet up with Henri on July 23. Catherine wanted Henri to return to Paris but he left for Chartres taking Louise with him.\nCatherine de\u2019Medici died in January of 1589 and Louise attended the funeral. She may have expected to take her rightful place at court but it was not to be. In the summer of 1589, the Wars of Religion raged. The authority of King Henri III was severely destabilized by a litany of political parties which were being funded by foreign powers. The Catholic League was supported by King Philip II of Spain, the protestant French Huguenots were supported by the Dutch and Queen Elizabeth I of England and the Malcontents who were led by Henri\u2019s younger brother the Duke of Alen\u00e7on.\nThe Malcontents were made up of Catholic and protestant aristocrats who jointly opposed the absolutist ambitions of the king. Henri himself took the position that a strong and religiously tolerant monarchy would save France from collapse. Henri went on campaign and said his goodbyes to Louise at the ch\u00e2teau of Chinon where Louise was to remain in safety. Louise was depressed at her separation from her husband.\nOn August 1, Henri was staying with is army at Saint-Cloud, preparing to attack Paris. He allowed a fanatical Dominican friar, Jacques Cl\u00e9ment into his presence. Cl\u00e9ment had brought false papers and while Henri read the papers, he stabbed Henri in the abdomen. The wound did not appear to be fatal at first and Henri was able to dictate a letter to Louise explaining what had happened. However, the wound had perforated his bowels and he died on August 2.\nLouise received word of Henri\u2019s death and left Chinon for the ch\u00e2teau of Chenonceau. She mourned Henri\u2019s death and vowed to avenge it. She broke off all relations with her family of Lorraine and was a proponent of the new King Henri IV. She spent her widowhood in Chenonceau in austerity. Her apartments consisted of two chambers next to the chapel which was hung with black cloth. The ceilings and wainscots were painted black and embossed with cornucopias and silver tears.\nShe wrote many appeals to King Henri IV asking for justice regarding the murderers of her husband. In 1593, she traveled to Mantes to seek an audience with the king. Henri IV received her in public in the church of Notre Dame. Louise fell to his feet and implored him to avenge her husband\u2019s murder and asked that his remains be taken to the royal mausoleum. Henri raised her up and promised to comply with her requests as soon as he was able.\nLouise returned to Chenonceau and spent the next seven years in seclusion, giving lodgings to many Capuchin nuns. In her will she left twenty-thousand crowns in a trust to her sister-in-law the Duchess de Mercoeur to build and endow a convent for the Capuchins of Bourges. However, the duchess, upon the advice of the king, purchased a site in the Rue St. Honor\u00e9 in Paris instead. On June 18, 1606, the Capucines took possession of their new house and it was the first nunnery of their order in France.\nIn 1600, Louise moved from Chenonceau to the castle of Moulins. Her health deteriorated and she died of dropsy on January 29, 1601 at the age of forty seven. She was interred before the high altar in the chapel of the Capuchin nuns. In 1688, the remains were moved to the chapel of the Capuchins in the Rue Neuve des Petits Champs. Her remains made several more moves before being deposited in a vault at St. Denis in 1817.\nFurther reading: \u201cCatherine de\u2019Medici: Renaissance Queen of France\u201d by Leonie Frieda, \u201cCatherine de\u2019Medici\u201d by R.J.

        "raw_content": "Review of Bone Dance by Emma Bull\nBone Dance by Emma Bull. \u2605\u2605\u26051/2\nBone Dance is a strange but enjoyable mixture of the post-apocalyptic with the supernatural. Sparrow is a trader of old videos and discs from before the nuclear missiles were set off by a group of psychics known as the Horsemen. But Sparrow\u2019s been blacking out and losing memories. What\u2019s going on?\nSparrow is an agender protagonist who\u2019s never given pronouns. Sparrow\u2019s only comment on the matter is this:\n\u201cYou wouldn\u2019t have so much trouble,\u201d I muttered, straightening up carefully, \u201cif you didn\u2019t talk about me in the third person.\u201d\nWhile this is fitting with Sparrow\u2019s somewhat prickly personality, it\u2019s not helpful for writing this review. Therefore for the remainder of the review I will be referring to Sparrow with the singular \u201cthey/them\u201d pronouns. Sparrow\u2019s physical sex or gender is not discussed until about a hundred pages in, about where a number of different pieces of the book start coming together. There\u2019s not a lot about this element I can say without running into spoilers (although I think there is a key point worth noting), but this article on Sparrow\u2019s gender is worth reading if you\u2019re willing to brave the spoilers.\n\u201cWe\u2019re all born nameless, aren\u2019t we? And the name we end up with has only peripherally to do with our family tree.\u201d\nSparrow was easily my favorite part about Bone Dance. When you first meet Sparrow, they are keeping themself permanently isolated and aloof from others. A large part of Bone Dance is diving into Sparrow\u2019s concept of themself, as they learn to accept who they are and to open up to other people and form connections. Sparrow\u2019s confident and snarky, but also in over their head with the current situation. They go through some real difficulties, and I was feeling for them the entire time.\nThe post-apocalyptic world of Bone Dance isn\u2019t the lawless mad lands you tend to see in fiction. Sparrow lives in a city (clues point towards it being Minneapolis) that still has electricity, even if it\u2019s controlled by the one man who rules the city government. There\u2019s markets and nightclubs and people running theaters of salvaged televisions. In short, there\u2019s some form of civilization, even though it\u2019s only been fifty years since the nuclear missiles went off.\nAs I mentioned in the first paragraph, Bone Dance is a mixture of science fiction and fantasy. The fantasy mainly comes in through the use of the psychics, tarot, and what the book calls hoodoo (I\u2019ve got no idea if this is the same thing as voodoo, but it seems similar). These supernatural elements all play a large role in the plot. At times this can result in a mystical element that accounts for a large part of why I found the book strange.\nI liked the prose of Bone Dance. Emma Bull really has a way with words, and I probably should have been marking pages for quotes as I read. Unfortunately, the pacing of Bone Dance is all over the place. The beginning is slow. Then there\u2019s bits of action interspersed with large periods of reflection. While I think the reflection periods were important for Sparrow\u2019s character growth, it did a number on the pacing.\nI would recommend Bone Dance, though I\u2019d want to note the poor pacing and strangeness of the plot. Still, I really love the lead character and there\u2019s some interesting thematic material going on. I in no way regret reading it.\n3 starsLGBTQIAnon-binary leadparanormalscience fictionworld building\nPrevious Post Audio Review of Jackaby by William Ritter\nNext Post Review of Court of Fives by Kate Elliott\nI read an epistolary novel of which Emma Bull was one of two authors, and it had similar pacing problems. A lot of things about it were terrific, but I had to plow through a LOT of pages with philosophical reflections in the beginning before the plot got good.\nHave you read War for the Oaks by any chance? It\u2019s the book of hers that seems the most well known, and I\u2019ve always meant to check it out.",

        "title": "A Meditation on Malick\u2019s Tree of Life & Voegelin\u2019s Philosophy of Consciousness ~ The Imaginative Conservative",
        "raw_content": "A Meditation on Malick\u2019s Tree of Life & Voegelin\u2019s Philosophy of Consciousness\nTerrence Malick\u2019s film, The Tree of Life (2011), is a significant cultural achievement, not only cinematically but also philosophically. Back in 1969, the philosophically inclined Malick produced a bilingual edition of the German philosopher Martin Heidegger\u2019s The Essence of Reasons, supplying the English translation.\nWith The Tree of Life, the meditative practices visible in his previous films\u2013Badlands (1973), Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998), The New World (2005)\u2013have now reached a point where comparison with the work of philosopher Eric Voegelin is unavoidable. With The Tree of Life, Malick has visually translated Voegelin.\nVoegelin\u2019s emphasis is on how every human soul undergoes experiences of the divine. In his Anamnesis, Voegelin shows how the essential practice of philosophy consists in meditative recollections that remember experiences awakening the \u201cawe\u201d or \u201cexcitement\u201d of existence.\nIn Anamnesis, Voegelin himself recalled early childhood memories in order to illustrate his expansive philosophy of consciousness by rooting it firmly in real human experiences. Similarly, in The Tree of Life, Malick uses film to communicate universal human experiences of the soul coming into contact with the divine.\nReviewers of the film have marveled at the overwhelming power of Malick\u2019s cinematic recollections of family life, and most have considered the family drama at the center of the film to be its greatest strength. But they have been mostly puzzled, even if sometimes dazzled, by what frames this story\u2013the story of a father (Brad Pitt), a mother (Jessica Chastain), and three brothers (Hunter McCracken, Laramie Eppler, and Tye Sheridan) whose lives are marked by the early death of the middle brother, R.L. (Eppler).\nFor the most part, the movie cinematically unveils the anamnetic consciousness of the brother Jack as he engages, as an adult (Sean Penn), in meditative recollection on the occasion of the anniversary of his brother\u2019s death. But more significantly the movie also frames this meditative recollection with cinematic explorations of the Beginning (of the universe and the subsequent evolution of life on earth) and of the Beyond (the transcendent divine presence that interacts with a soul as it becomes immortal and journeys to the other side of death).\nDead Doctrine Fought with Imaginative Vision\nI use Voegelin\u2019s preferred terms, \u201cThe Beginning and the Beyond,\u201d from the lengthy unpublished version of his Aquinas lecture with that title at Marquette University in 1975 (now in Volume 28 of the Collected Works, which I quote below), a work which I think is required reading for fully understanding the significance of how The Tree of Life both begins and ends: namely, with a cosmogonic meditation on birth (Beginning), and a philosophical myth on the soul\u2019s transfiguration in death (Beyond).\nWhether or not Malick has been reading Voegelin, The Tree of Life\u2019s unique achievement is that the film is neither indebted to an identifiable \u201cideology\u201d nor reducible to the \u201cphilosophy\u201d of any thinker. Rather, its stunning accomplishment is to root cinematic experience firmly in the basis of the real human experience of a soul in relation to the divine. That inner experience, undistorted by the later accretions of doctrine and dogma, is the uncompromising focus of both Malick\u2019s cinematic vision and Voegelin\u2019s philosophy of consciousness.\nFor Voegelin, doctrine or dogma can be salutary when it protects \u201can historically achieved state of insight against the disintegrative pressures\u201d of cultural disorder. But Voegelin also observes that in our present age \u201cthe deforming doctrinalization\u201d at the basis of political ideologies (communism, fascism, totalitarianism, and other delusional \u201cisms\u201d) has perverted authentic (e.g., Christian) symbolizations of the divine. These perversions transpose authentic consciousness of a transcendent Beginning, and of a transcendent Beyond, into purely immanent, this-worldly concerns. This is a pattern of delusion that Voegelin has studied in detail and classified as variations on Gnosticism.\nThe problem we are faced with today, according to Voegelin, is that the deluded and deformed doctrinalization \u201chas become socially stronger than the experiential insights it was originally meant to protect.\u201d To recover the original meaning of the doctrinal symbols is thus an enormous task.\nYet Malick\u2019s film is a major contribution to what Voegelin would call the \u201cimaginative vision\u201d that authentically presents \u201cthe comprehensive event of experience and symbolization.\u201d This cultural achievement of \u201cimaginative vision\u201d is a necessary prerequisite, says Voegelin, because a meditative philosophical effort at recollection \u201ccan operate only within the [artist\u2019s culturally] comprehensive [imaginative] vision and make it self-reflectively luminous for man\u2019s existence in tension toward the Beyond.\u201d\nThe New Evangelization and the Difficulty it Faces\nAttempts at a \u201cnew evangelization\u201d by the Catholic Church have highlighted how difficult it is to communicate true insights about the Beginning and the Beyond by using traditional symbols and doctrine.\nTracey Rowland, in Ratzinger\u2019s Faith (Oxford University Press, 2008), illustrated two different papal emphases possible when tackling the problem:\nWhile John Paul II \u201cplundered\u201d such concepts as rights, modernity, feminism, liberty, equality, and fraternity, his usual approach was to adopt the concept, gut it of those elements he deemed hostile to the faith, then repack it with Christian material.\n. . . . With feminism he kept the concept, gave it a new anthropology, and relabeled it a \u201cnew feminism.\u201d With human rights he again kept the concept, but tried to root it in the idea of the human person having been made in the image and likeness of God.\nIn contrast to \u201cJohn Paul II\u2019s strategy of philological taxidermy,\u201d Rowland observed how Benedict XVI was wary of \u201ctrying to transpose concepts from hostile traditions.\u201d She summed up the essential philosophical problem in the conclusion to her book:\nPhilosophically, the problem is that liberal idioms which may in some sense have had Christian or Aristotelian or even Stoic memories were over several centuries taken over and mutated in what von Balthasar has called spoliatio Christianorum (a plundering of the Christian intellectual framework). Often, by the time they emerged within the liberal tradition, they were hardly recognizable and conveyed very different meanings from their original classical\u2013Christian \u2018shadows\u2019.\nThe question which John Paul II faced and Benedict XVI now faces is whether to pursue a strategy of trying to reclaim the language which has been plundered, despoiled, and mutated, or to find another language with which to address the world.\nThe New Approach of Pope Francis\nWith Pope Francis, it now appears that the papacy intends to adopt the strategy of avoiding \u201cplundered, despoiled, and mutated\u201d language as much as possible. The new pontiff seems to be quite fond of less formal language and more spontaneous gestures, thereby achieving an immediacy of communication that for the average person permits no evasions or equivocations.\nWith his new style, Francis has in a very short time garnered much attention and considerable appreciation. It is remarkable to note how consonant the Pope\u2019s fresh approach to evangelization is with the advice of Voegelin.\nThe Tree of Life Offers Experiential Analyses\nVoegelin, in \u201cThe Beginning and the Beyond,\u201d says that \u201cthe symbols of the past,\u201d in order to speak to our contemporaries, \u201cmust be reexamined,\u201d so that their significance \u201cas instruments of historical interpretation\u201d can be truly rediscovered. Voegelin argues that \u201cwe do not need an entirely new universe of symbols.\u201d Instead, \u201cwe discover the new language\u201d that we need is mostly \u201cthe old language of experiential analysis that has been buried under the doctrinal deformations.\u201d\nThe glory of Malick\u2019s film is that it performs experiential analyses that allow one to rediscover what doctrines like original sin are really all about. One example would be the passage of St. Paul (Romans 7:15) alluded to when Jack as a child speaks in voiceover: \u201cWhat I want to do, I can\u2019t do. I do what I hate.\u201d\nWe understand this in experiential context: his father, a frustrated musician, is forced by the current state of the natural world to take a different career path. The father transmits this pattern of domination and frustration to his sons, who in acts of vandalism and rebellion enact a natural pattern of development that is redeemed only by revelatory acts of grace.\nTraditional dualisms like \u201cnature and grace,\u201d argues Voegelin, are untenable in an era like ours of globalization, unless we can recapture in meditative reflection their experiential basis: \u201cThe dichotomies of Faith and Reason, Religion and Philosophy, Theology and Metaphysics can no longer be used as ultimate terms of reference when we have to deal with experiences of divine reality with their rich diversification.\u201d\nThe Divine Outbreak Seen in Natural Experiences\nIn this regard, The Tree of Life is innovative because it shows the divine outbreak of grace within natural experiences: for example, one dinosaur gratuitously spares another; or, more pertinently, the father (who seemingly symbolizes nature more than grace) and the mother (vice versa) both embrace Jack in a union more intimate than the filmic voiceover first suggests (with its invocation of the nature/grace dualism), because it is from the \u201cone flesh\u201d of their union that the family itself is generated\u2013the natural union that hurtles every soul, from the Beginning, on its path to the Beyond.\nEvery soul thus experientially encounters exterior illustrations of \u201cgrace\u201d and \u201cnature\u201d as analogies for more fundamental interior movements of the soul. Voegelin points out that the symbols we inherit e.g., \u201coriginal sin\u201d \u201ccannot rely for their personal and social acceptance on \u2018tradition\u2019 alone. Their truth emerges from the divine-human movements and counter-movements in the mysterious flux of divine presence that we call history.\u201d\nSealing with Grace One\u2019s Final Acts\nFor this reason I would see the dancing light that both begins and ends the film as a visual metaphor for the individual soul. (It is also symbolized within the film by the candle lit in remembrance of a death.) Those reviewers who take it to be an image of God are not entirely wrong, however, because it is indeed the flux of divine presence that bestows luminosity on the soul.\nThe penultimate image of the film is a bridge over water. I take this as a visual representation of Plato\u2019s \u201cMetaxy\u201d (the \u201cIn-Between\u201d), a symbol Voegelin uses to describe how the soul dwells: that is, somewhere between the immanent, physical, external world and its transcendent, spiritual, divine Origin and Destination.\nSuch symbols (the Beginning, the In-Between, the Beyond) are unavoidable if we wish to stay true to the mystery. Voegelin criticizes the human \u201cpenchant to hypostatize\u201d our experiences and to perversely darken these experiences with Gnostic dogmas:\nThe experience of divine reality, it is true, occurs in the psyche of a man who is solidly rooted by his body in the external world, but the psyche itself exists in the Metaxy, in the tension toward the divine ground of being. [The soul] is the sensorium for divine reality and the site of its luminous presence.\nWhat Voegelin writes in his magnum opus Order and History (Volume IV, The Ecumenic Age) applies also to the events recollected in The Tree of Life:\nSince the events are experienced as movements of human response to a movement of divine presence, history is not a merely human but a divine-human process. Though historical events are founded in the external world and have calendar dates, they also partake of the divine lasting out-of-time. The historical dimension of humanity is neither world-time nor eternity but the flux of presence in the Metaxy.\nThe shore everyone is wandering on at the film\u2019s end I take to be a liminal state, on the edge of death. Visually, it supplies a mythic representation (similar to Plato\u2019s philosophical myths) of the soul\u2019s state just before death, before its final entrance into the Beyond. The people of Jack\u2019s life \u201cflash before his eyes\u201d in his philosophic meditation, before he \u201cdescends\u201d in the elevator back into everyday life, rather than ascending (like his mother) into the Beyond.\nIn this liminal state, we see what souls do, just before they pass over to what grows from grace\u2013the Elysian Fields of eternal life (symbolized by Malick\u2019s field of sunflowers). A soul gets to perform a final act by which its natural life and its natural end in death may be sealed (or not) by an act of grace. Jack\u2019s mother here leads the way, as the cinematic myth, showing her at the moment of death, shows her performing her last act of grace.\nMalick visually alludes to the pagan Three Graces, yet transfigures them with the mother\u2019s Trinitarian spoken Word in the voiceover. She achieves immortality in the moment of her death, a transfiguration to which we are witnesses, thanks to Jack\u2019s mythically meditative vision.\nNot only Voegelin, but also the great German Thomist, Josef Pieper, author of Death and Immortality (1968) and The Platonic Myths (1965), would have no trouble recognizing the significance of Malick\u2019s imaginative vision here: namely, that artistic \u201cre-mythologization\u201d is a praeparatio evangelica (preparation for the \u201cnew evangelization\u201d) when it returns with care and sensitivity to the truly real human experiences.\nBooks mentioned in this essay may be found in The Imaginative Conservative Bookstore.

        "title": "When God Leaves by Laura Polk - The Life of a Single Mom",
        "raw_content": "Home/Laura Polk/When God Leaves by Laura Polk\nWhen God Leaves by Laura Polk\nI was a shell of the woman I\u2019d been.\nIf you\u2019d known me ten years earlier, you wouldn\u2019t have been able to be around me without seeing God\u2019s hand all over me. I beamed with faith.\nEven though I\u2019d already been through several tough battles in my life, I was hope-filled and joy-filled and felt called to reach out to other women and share that sense of hope that comes from those who have battled hard and overcome.\nI was quick to pray for them. Quick to comfort them. Quick to encourage them that God would never, ever, ever leave them in a bad situation. Because He loved them. They were His daughters, after all. Daughters of the King. And that was no small thing.\nBut years down the road, as I hit mountain after mountain in my life as a single mom, I began to wonder if those things were even true. That He was real. That He provided. That He protected. Because all I felt from Him was a gaping hole, I\u2019d been financially destroyed, and I lived in fear that my ex would hurt me\u2014if not worse.\nAnd this wasn\u2019t my first faith battle. I wasn\u2019t a good Christian girl who grew up in the church and then one day turned around and questioned what her parents had believed. I spent several years investigating my faith before becoming a believer at the age of thirty. My faith was hard-won. But from the moment I found Jesus, I followed Him with gusto. So happy to have someone in my life that would never leave me. Because, sweet friend, I was the poster child for being left behind.\nUntil He left too.\nAnd with my head hung in shame, and the minuscule amount of faith that remained somewhere inside me, I approached a group of women that I have ministered with online and told them that I wasn\u2019t sure I believed anymore. That my faith was shot. That God had left me in it, despite what He says in the Bible. And that I was exhausted from trying to believe otherwise when the disproof had become my life.\nThat\u2019s when they stepped in the gap.\nThey held me up. They prayed for me. They reached out and messaged me. They told me that they would believe FOR me. They asked the Holy Spirit to pray for the things that I didn\u2019t know to pray for. They stood shoulder-to-shoulder with me propping me up when I couldn\u2019t stand, much less get to my knees.\nI cried myself to sleep that night.\nBut in the days that followed, I began to get a little stronger. I began to long to pray again, even though I couldn\u2019t yet. I began to understand that God wasn\u2019t as far as I thought because He had sent others close to me that could tangibly reach me in His name.\nIf you feel left by God, I want you to do the same. Find your women. Whether they are in your church, in your family, or even online (like mine were), and get real with them. Tell them you have nothing left to hope for. Admit your lack of faith. Lean on them to hold you up.\nIf you can\u2019t find them, find me.\nBecause this single motherhood is not something we should do alone. It\u2019s a sisterhood that no one else can understand. I stand in solidarity with you in this battle, sweet friend. I stand beside you. And I will hold you up to the One who longs to heal his daughter.\nJust like my women did for me at the weakest possible moment in my faith. In my life.\nWe want to. Just ask us.\nTLSMSTAFF2018-12-18T11:24:27+00:00May 29th, 2017|Laura Polk|3 Comments\nAnuj Agarwal June 3, 2017 at 9:24 am - Reply\nI would like to personally congratulate you as your blog The Life of a Single Mom has been selected by our panelist as one of the Top 100 Single Mom Blogs on the web.\nhttp://blog.feedspot.com/single_mom_blogs/\nI personally give you a high-five and want to thank you for your contribution to this world.

The theme is: \u201cAssistance to keep people out of harm\u201d (suffering or financial ruin). Line 3 says, \u201cOne is enriched through unfortunate events. No blame, if you are sincere and walk in the middle, and report with a seal to the prince.\u201d In other words, \u201cthere should be assistance for people in unfortunate circumstances. They should be reported to someone with the authority to take care of them.\u201d Line 5 says, \u201cIf in truth you have a kind heart, ask not. Supreme good fortune.\u201d This could mean that \u201cPatients should not abuse the system with unnecessary requests for services\u201d and \u201cProviders and insurers should not charge excessive rates.\u201d Line 6 says, \u201cHe brings increase to no one. Indeed, someone even strikes him.\u201d This could mean that \u201cThose who do not provide good service or charge unfair rates should be penalized.\u201d The image of hexagram 42 says, \u201cThus the superior man: if he sees good, he imitates it; if he has faults, he rids himself of them.\u201d This means that \u201cwhat works in other health care systems should be copied and what does not work in the current system should be discarded.\u201d\nWhat will be the result of the U.S. Presidential Election November 8, 2016\nPosted on March 5, 2017\tby Alberto Ramon\nThis reading was done November 3, 2016 with the polls showing Hillary Clinton beating Donald Trump. The result consisted of hexagram 22,\u201dGrace,\u201d attractive, charismatic, superficial and hexagram 6, \u201cConflict,\u201d contentious, controversial, antagonistic. The theme of this reading is clearly about Trump. After conducting a divisive campaign, Trump unexpectedly won the election but Clinton won the popular vote by 2.9 million votes. The Trump administration was plagued by numerous conflicts. Another theme is that a superficial perception of issues fueled antagonistic views. That could explain the outcome of this election.\nWill Britain vote to leave the European Union this year (Brexit)?\nPosted on August 10, 2016\tby Alberto Ramon\nThis reading was done June 15, 2016.

Since \u201creturning\u201d is not applicable in this situation, the only phrase these hexagrams can form is \u201cA rebellion (against the E.U.) was expressed.\u201d Continue reading \u2192\nWhat type of company should I consider for my next job?\nPosted on December 23, 2015\tby Alberto Ramon\nMonica, a married young woman, quit a very demanding job in a big consulting firm that left her exhausted.

        "title": "Stevie's Social TV Platform Gets 450+ New Channels",
        "raw_content": "Stevie leans back and moves forward, launching more than 450 new channels on its social TV platform\nBack in December, we brought you news on Stevie, the oddly-named TV-focused startup that emerged from Microsoft\u2019s Azure Accelerator in Israel earlier in the year. At the time, it had just closed a $1.5m Series-A funding round and launched a new iPhone app. This followed a few months after its launch on Xbox.\nJust to recap, Stevie\u2019s social TV layer combines content from your Facebook and Twitter feeds, along with popular videos from YouTube. To keep the experience as \u201clean-back\u201d as possible, it is displayed directly over the content you are watching.\nNow, Stevie is rolling out a an all-new channel system that serves up a much more bigger choice of social TV channels, based around a user\u2019s interests and favorite Facebook Pages.\nStevie leans back and moves forward\nThus far, Stevie has enabled its users to watch six separate preset channels, each displaying content from friends in key categories. For example, they displayed the latest posts from friends, photos and videos, music-shared, celebrity updates, among other content. Now, however, Stevie has rolled out a whole new channel set-up that adopts a more \u2018limitless\u2019 ethos.\nIndeed, Stevie has added more than 450 new channels covering everything from Rock Music, Jokesters and Hipsters, to News, Art & Fashion.\nSo, while the content has always been served up based on something they (or their friends) liked or followed, now users can choose from much more content based around different categories created by Stevie.\nAll of the channels are based on popular Facebook Pages, Twitter and YouTube accounts, letting users watch all the video content, photos and updates from those pages. It\u2019s worth noting here that Facebook Connect is still mandatory to use the service, and it would be nice if it would offer Twitter as an alternative.\nHowever, Stevie is transforming into a very interesting social TV proposition, and for those who like to sit and watch TV without really knowing what they want to view, it\u2019s a great offering. And it offers a fresh take on second-screening by, well, removing the need for a second screen. You can read what others are saying about a show or clip alongside it.\nThe new channels can be accessed from a new home-page/EPG, with Stevie pulling in elements from social dashboards and other aggregators. You can actually see the full online guide here, available through the Web version for the time-being. It\u2019s not available in the mobile apps yet (coming soon), so you\u2019ll need to access the Web-based version from your mobile browser, but it will open the relevant content in the native app.\nSimply hit \u2018More Channels\u2019, and you\u2019ll see a slew of fresh viewing options.\nInterestingly, Stevie also now lets users watch any Facebook Page (one that has video content) as a channel, simply by pasting that Page\u2019s vanity URL (after the /slash) into their browser. So, for example, if you wanted to watch video content from The Next Web\u2019s Facebook Page on Stevie, you would just append the mystevie.com URL with TheNextWeb, the same goes for the NBA, Ellen TV and everything else.\nStevie was founded back in October 2011, off the back of a $600,000 seed round from investors including Jeff Pulver, Gigi Levy and Internet Media Group. It\u2019s currently available via the Web, iPhone, iPad and Windows 8, with Android and the previously-announced Xbox version coming soon, along with a version for Samsung Smart TV. Indeed, with the launch of TV-centric apps, Stevie may find itself a key component in many livingrooms.\n\u27a4 Stevie\nRead next: A big shift in Russian online media: Rambler-Afisha merges with Livejournal's parent SUP Media",

(Photo by AFP)\nThe so-called Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), a Western-backed coalition of mainly Kurdish militants, has reportedly released foreign Daesh elements, including Europeans, back to the Takfiri terrorist group through secret prisoner swap deals.\nThe British Daily Telegraph cited people with knowledge of the talks between the two sides and relatives of those detained as saying that the SDF had struck three agreements with Daesh to exchange terrorists and their families with its own captured members.\nThe first exchange, which took place in February, involved about 200 mostly Chechen and Arab Daesh terrorists as well as a number of French and at least one German, the report said.\nIt further noted that the terrorists were bused out of SDF-run detention centers to Daesh-held areas in eastern Syria.\nIn another prisoner swap deal in April, 15 Daesh elements and 40 women and children, including Moroccans, French, Belgians and Dutch, were exchanged, according to the report.\nThe third swap also involved wives of Daesh terrorists earlier this month.\nHowever, the report said, four of the 15 mediators of the agreements were later assassinated, causing the remaining negotiators to withdraw from further discussions.\nThe SDF, which is dominated by the People\u2019s Protection Units (YPG) militants, controls swathes of northern and eastern Syria.\nThe group has recently taken into captivity several foreign Daesh members, particularly since it fully captured the northern Syrian city of Raqqah in October 2017.\nPeople walk past rubble of damaged buildings in Raqqah, Syria, on May 14, 2018. (Photo by Reuters)\nThe SDF has complained that it does not have the capacity to keep Daesh prisoners and that the Western countries have refused to take responsibility for their nationals.\nBack in March, SDF spokesman Gabriel Kino told the Middle East Eye news portal that the group had called on the Western states to take action regarding the issue of foreign Daesh prisoners.\n\u201cThe SDF so far has captured thousands of IS (Daesh) militants, both Syrian or foreign fighters that joined IS during the last few years,\u201d he said.\n\u201cWe send letters to ask foreign governments to take these foreign fighters back and put them on trial, but so far we have not received any responses.\u201d\nEarlier this month, SDF officials expressed the group\u2019s readiness to hold talks with Damascus over the future of the territory under its control.\nIt came after Syrian President Bashar al-Assad accused Washington of using the \u201cSDF card now\u201d that other US-backed militant outfits have lost ground on the battlefield.\nAssad also stressed that his government had two options in dealing with the SDF issue: first, negotiations and second using force against the militants.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have any other option. So, this is our land, it\u2019s our right, and it\u2019s our duty to liberate it, and the Americans should leave, somehow they\u2019re going to leave,\u201d he said.",

        "title": "Toy of the Year | Sip Advisor",
        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Toy of the Year\nHungary \u2013 My Cherry Baby\nCube Compulsion\nThe Sip Advisor gets easily frustrated by toys like the Rubik\u2019s Cube. I suppose there are some things my massive intellect just can\u2019t solve\u2026 and I\u2019m at peace with that fact. Let\u2019s take a closer look at this popular toy, invented by Hungarian Erno Rubik:\nThe Rubik\u2019s Cube (originally called the Magic Cube, before it was released worldwide in 1980) was created in 1974, as a way for Rubik to help explain three-dimensional geometry. At the time, Rubik was only 29 years old, but was already a sculptor and architecture professor. When Rubik\u2019s had created his cube, it took him a month to solve for the first time. Later, Rubik could solve his own puzzle in under a minute, which he showed off at trade shows.\nMore than 350 million Rubik\u2019s Cubes have been sold around the world and thanks to these sales, it is the best-selling toy of all-time. After its international release, it won Toy of the Year honours in 1980 and again in 1981. The popularity of the toy bred the first annual International Rubik\u2019s Championships in 1982, which was won by Minh Thai of the U.S. with a time of 22.95 seconds. A World Cube Association was created in 2004 to govern international competitions and chart world records.\nThe Rubik\u2019s Cube can be solved in 20 moves or less, regardless of how it\u2019s mixed up. This has created an entire sub-genre of speed cubers. These folks can solve the Rubik\u2019s puzzle in under six seconds. All this, despite the fact that the toy has 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 (into the quintillions) possible patterns. A guide to solving the Rubik\u2019s Cube was created by a 12-year-old, Patrick Bossert of England, in 1981 and went on to become a best-seller, with 1.5 million copies sold.\nThe world record for fastest completion to the Rubik\u2019s Cube is held by Mats Valk of the Netherlands. He solved the puzzle in 5.55 seconds, beating the previous best time of 5.66 seconds. A smartphone-powered Lego robot, known by the name CubeStormer 3, solved a Rubik\u2019s Cube in 3.253 seconds, blowing away all the competition. These are the robots who will one day take over the world, pissed that they were made to endlessly solve puzzles.\nWithin the world of speed cubing, there are those not happy to simply solve the puzzle quickly. Some competitors take things to whole new levels of insanity, like one guy who did one-handed push-ups, while only taking 25 seconds to complete the challenge. Another fella solved the Rubik\u2019s Cube in 23.80 seconds\u2026 while blindfolded! Perhaps most intimidating is the three-year-old Chinese toddler who was done with the toy in under two minutes.\nYou just knew a toy like this would have entries in the smallest, largest, and most expensive categories. The smallest is 1omm wide and was designed by Evgeniy Grigoriev of Russia. The largest can be found in Knoxville, Tennessee and measures three metres tall, weighing in at over 500kg. As for most expensive, it was created by Diamond Cutters International in 1995. Dubbed the \u2018Masterpiece Cube,\u2019 it features amethyst, rubies, and emeralds, all set in gold and valued at $1.5 million.\nIf you simply can\u2019t put the device down, you may be a Cubaholic (and that doesn\u2019t mean you like taking frequent trips to Cuba or chain-smoking fine cigars). A documentary, titled Cubers, was released in 2008 and followed the lives of some of those afflicted with the compulsion as well as those competing for the title of World Rubik\u2019s Cube Champion.\nThe Rubik\u2019s Cube has been featured in numerous areas of popular culture, including: movies, TV shows, comics, music videos, songs, art, and museum exhibits. Seeking to take advantage of the toy\u2019s popularity, a Saturday morning cartoon debuted in 1983, called \u2018Rubik, The Amazing Cube\u2019 and featured a sentient Rubik\u2019s Cube, who could come to the aid of a Hispanic family. It only lasted one season and 18 episodes and starred Ron Palillo (aka Arnold Horshack) as the titular toy.\nOn the 40th anniversary of the Rubik\u2019s Cube, earlier this year, the toy was featured as part of the daily Google Doodle, as a playable interactive puzzle. It\u2019s only fitting to end this piece with some words from the inventor himself: \u201cIf you are curious, you\u2019ll find the puzzles around you. If you are determined, you will solve them.\u201d\nHungary: My Cherry Baby\nMuddle Cherries\n0.75 oz Palinka (Cherry)\nThanks to working on this article, I\u2019m adding \u201cSolve a Rubik\u2019s Cube\u201d to my lifetime bucket list and it may eventually be what does me in (despite the current odds favourite in Vegas being alcohol-induced bungee accident), but I will achieve this feat!\nThis drink was just too sweet\u2026 and not in the New World Order wrestling way. The flavours were nice, but some changes need to be made to the recipe to make it a little more likable and evened out.\nPosted in Wine Cocktails\t| Tagged Amaretto, Bucket List, champagne, Cherries, Cubaholic, Cubers, CubeStormer 3, Erno Rubik, Galliano, Google Doodle, Hungary, Magic Cube, Maraschino Cherry, Masterpiece Cube, Mats Valk, Palinka, Patrick Bossert, Ron Palillo, Rubik The Amazing Cube, Rubik's Cube, Speed Cubers, Toy of the Year, World Cube Association\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "Weekend Edition \u2013 August 19, 2011\nAugust 19, 2011 Wallace FordBarack Obama, Barnum & Bailey Circus, Ben Bernanke, Cornel West, Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson, Rick Perry, Ronald Reagan, Tavis Smiley, Woodrow Wilson 1 Comment\nOne of the important things about history is that it reminds us that there isn\u2019t much that is really new. In that vein, President Obama (and all of us) should check out a speech given by Franklin Roosevelt in 1937 \u2013 it could have been written tomorrow. Meanwhile Rodeo Rick Perry, the erstwhile governor of Texas and now a contender for the presidential nomination of the G.O.Tea Party has been running around the country with his mouth \u2018a blazing. I don\u2019t think that it will be too long before he shoots himself in the foot while trying to put it in his mouth. Finally, I am assuming that the Barnum & Bailey Circus has imposed a hiring freeze. That is the only explanation for Dr. West and Mr. Smiley running around America like a bunch of clowns on their \u201cSpeaking Truth to Empower\u201d sham of a tour. Where\u2019s the delete button when you really need it?\nWise Words to the Wise\nThe deluge of hate, calumny and rage that has poured upon Barack Obama since he became President of the United States is not without precedent. Historians refer to the presidency of Abraham Lincoln for an analogy but 74 years ago Franklin Roosevelt was the object of furious opposition to the change that he advocated and articulated. President Obama would do well to consider the following:\n\u201cFor twelve years this Nation was afflicted with hear-nothing, see-nothing, do-nothing Government. The Nation looked to Government but the Government looked away. Nine mocking years with the golden calf and three long years of the scourge! Nine crazy years at the ticker and three long years in the breadlines! Nine mad years of mirage and three long years of despair! Powerful influences strive today to restore that kind of government with its doctrine that that Government is best which is most indifferent\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..For nearly four years you have had an Administration which instead of twirling its thumbs has rolled up its sleeves. We will keep our sleeves rolled up\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace\u2039business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob.\nNever before in all our history have these forces been as united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me and I welcome their hatred.\u201d\nIt\u2019s pretty amazing that these words, spoken 74 years ago, could be spoken by President Obama tomorrow with incredible accuracy and relevance. Perhaps it is time for an encore.\nRodeo Rick!\nYou have to hand it to Rick Perry \u2013 the man certainly knows how to make an entrance. In his first week as an official presidential candidate he managed to question whether President Obama \u201cloves America\u201d. Presumably Governor Perry\u2019s love for America is a fact of nature.\nHe also contended that the monetary policies of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke were \u201ctreasonous\u201d. He went even further, darkly muttering that Chairman Bernanke would get treated \u201cpretty ugly\u201d if he ever came to Texas. Many will recall that the last prominent federal official to be treated \u201cpretty ugly\u201d in Texas was John F. Kennedy, making Perry\u2019s remarks all the more awful.\nJust getting warmed up, Rodeo Rick said at a New Hampshire campaign stop that evolution was a theory \u201cwith a lot of gaps\u201d. You probably did not know that, in addition to being governor of Texas, Rodeo Rick Perry was a noted geologist, paleontologist, archaeologist and anthropologist with all the credentials necessary to question the validity of the theory of evolution. By the way, he also thinks that Adam and Eve walked with the dinosaurs.\nRodeo Rick also said that the American military did not respect President Obama since he never served in the military. It may come as some surprise to Governor Perry that Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson were all wartime presidents and that respect from the military was never a problem for them. The right wing of the right wing icon Ronald Reagan never served in the military and what little military record that George W. Bush had is best forgotten.\nIn trying to outdo\u2026.himself (????) Rodeo Rick also contended that \u201cAmerica needs a president who loves America\u201d. When asked whether he believed that President Obama loves America he replied, \u201cYou have to ask him\u201d. And so Rodeo Rick has staked out the neo-birther position of no longer questioning Barack Obama\u2019s place of birth, questioning instead the location of his heart and the coordinates of his allegiance.\nI think it is just a question of time before the presidential campaign of Rodeo Rick Perry explodes from bombast and idiocy or implodes from the weight of hypocrisy and illogic.\nA Damned Shame\nIt has been said that there are lies and then there are damned lies. I would amend that statement by adding, some things are a shame while other are a damned shame.\nInto this latter category I would place the Tavis Smiley-Cornel West \u201cSpeaking Truth to Empower\u201d speaking tour, appearing in a hole in the wall near you soon.\nDuring the past few months Dr. West and Mr. Smiley (reminds one of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde???) have gained more attention than they could ever deserve by attacking and sliming Barack Obama.\nWhile President Obama should never be immune to criticism but calling him a \u201clap dog of Wall Street\u201d and implying that he has somehow betrayed black America presumably because he did not become a civil rights leader on January 20, 2009 is just plain wrong \u2013 and in the current political climate, dangerous.\nThe fact that Dr. West and Mr. Smiley are the arbiters of blackness would be laughable if it were not so pitiful. Their irrational, barbershop quality rhetoric directed at President Obama would fit in well at a Tea Party rally. They are getting the same attention as a \u201cMan Bites Dog\u201d story and seem to be satisfied with the attention as long as their names are spelled correctly.\nCornel West, while he may have missed a haircut or two, hasn\u2019t missed a meal in a long time. He is a comfortably tenured professor at an Ivy League university that has never been mentioned in the same breath with Howard University, Morehouse College or Medgar Evers College when it comes to be centers of higher education for black Americans. Tavis Smiley has a list of multinational corporate sponsors whose predatory tactics have caused more suffering in the black community than all of the lies and half-truths he has broadcast over the years.\nIt is, however, a shame that some people will listen to this daffy duo. It is a damned shame that some people will not vote for Barack Obama in the 2012 election having mistakenly placed their faith and trust in these poseurs. And it is truly a damned shame that West and Smiley might in some way contribute to the election of Michele Bachmann, Mitt Romney or Rick Perry as president of the United States.\nUnlike Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Dr. West and Mr. Smiley will be just fine. But many of us may suffer from their prideful misdeeds.\n\u2192 The Great American Circus\n\u2190 Once Upon A Time\u2026\u2026.\nOne thought on \u201cWeekend Edition \u2013 August 19, 2011\u201d\nSeriously, Obama needs to do something while he can for HIS people. We will have his back because we realize what he is going through, but the fact is his people are hurting right now and it is not getting better. I know he is not President of all of the people to only care for his own, but he needs to do his fair share. In the bible Ester, who was married to the King did what she needed to do to save her people. Obama is the President and he hasn\u2019t lifted a finger or done even one thing in regards to the economic development of his own people whose unemployment rate is twice that of white people right now. I don\u2019t know what he can do, but his focus is really needed on this. If he can\u2019t support his people, how are they supposed to support him?",

        "title": "3 Trends Affecting Chinese Attitudes Towards Imported Food \u2013 Thread Design \u2013 Branding, Brand Strategy, Website Design. Shanghai, China.",
        "raw_content": "By: Adam Thurland, Director of Strategy at Thread Design\n\u201cEating healthy is more essential these days\u201d is the consensus amongst participants according to recent Thread insights. Great news for imported food brands in China? It turns out that it\u2019s not that simple\u2026\nIt\u2019s no secret that the availability and ability to purchase imported food products in China has seen rapid increases since the country\u2019s open door policy began all the way back in the late 70s, and the subsequent emergence of the middle classes (total spending on imported food is set to reach $79 billion in 2018).\nConsumption of imported food has now become a necessity for many, and it\u2019s unsurprising, given the multiple food scares that have made locally produced food infamous (glow-in-the-dark pork anyone!?).\nHowever \u2013 according to a recent YouGov China poll conducted in partnership with us at Thread Design Shanghai \u2013 attitudes towards locally produced food products could be changing. Here we look at 3 recent trends that could provide insight into why this is happening.\n1. A resurgence of national pride\n\u2018Made in China\u2019 doesn\u2019t hold the same meaning as it once did, especially for Chinese consumers, but has the recent surge in national pride \u2013 coinciding with Chinese brands\u2019 coming out party on the global stage \u2013 now begun to spill over into the food & beverage industries?\nFrom recent data, country-of-origin is now far down the list when it comes to food concerns, with 51% of consumers considering nutrition, then ingredients, as the primary factors affecting purchase decision (above brand reputation and organic labelling).\n2. Chinese consumers have fallen in love with health & wellness\nThe fact that nutrition is such an important concern these days is probably no surprise at all given the recent fitness craze seen on the mainland in recent years, and it would make sense for this to have a knock-on effect regarding attitudes towards food consumption too.\nBut wait, isn\u2019t China produced food unsafe, why would a social trend towards wellness affect attitudes towards imported products?\nThe time for Chinese consumers to be unconcerned regarding the safety of locally produced food has surely not yet passed, however it seems that this same concern doesn\u2019t apply to \u2018healthy\u2019 food, with further data showing little association in the Chinese consumer\u2019s mind between healthy food and imported food.\nCould this be seen as an early warning sign for foreign food exporters, that have relied for so long on China\u2019s obsession with food safety?\n3. A more curious consumer\nIt would make sense that a shift in attitude towards health & wellness could mean more exposure to information regarding healthy living and eating, potentially encouraging consumers to look more closely at food label contents, rely less on origin as a marker of good produce, and try new products as a result.\nIndeed, within China the concept of brand loyalty for many industries is only just starting to emerge, however this has not been the case for many traditional Chinese food brands; who, for many years, have benefited from the Chinese consumer prioritising \u2018safety\u2019, preferring to stick with well-known brands and relying on family or friend\u2019s recommendations regarding the purchase of new products, but this could also be changing.\nData suggests that that consumers are now more likely to explore and make opinions for themselves when it comes to food; researching new brands, checking nutritional data, and relying less on established family favourites.\nThe end for foreign food brands?\nSo does this signal impending doom for foreign food exporters?

        "raw_content": "Draft Week Is Finally Here !\nOJ Howard \u201cNumber 88\u201d\nComing out of high school, OJ Howard was number one in the country. Howard was born in Prattville Alabama, where he attended high school at Autauga Academy, so naturally, when it came time for college he chooses to play for Nick Saben at the University of Alabama. For Howards freshman year he only started five games, and his sophomore year looks about the same. Junior year, he had a tremendous year, he concluded it with two touchdowns, and 208 yards, with a total of 5 catches, against Clemson, that victory earned him the offensive MVP for the National Championship game. During his senior year, they lost to Clemson where Howard had 106 yards and only one touchdown. Howard is a gifted player, no doubt about that with his long arms and massive hands. I think he will be a great asset to any team. In his highlight reels in highs school, he looks like a man among boys. He took a big risk going to Alabama because they don\u2019t have a strong throwing game, but he provides to be good anyway. He is the type of football player that keep defensive backs up at night.\nClick on this link to watch his high school reel off of you tube:\nWith the draft getting closer official visits are underway. Today\u2019s draft prospect that I am writing about is WR Corey Davis, who attended the University of Western Michigan. Where he was a four-year starter with 332 receptions for a total of 5285 yards and 52 touchdowns. He leads Western Michigan to its first win in bowl history, at the Bahama\u2019s bowl against\nMiddle Tennessee State, he had 183 receiving yards during this game alone. During the NFL Combine Davis said, \u201cI don\u2019t get intimidated by who lines up in front of me, they bleed red just like me\u201d (Everett). Davis can run every route on the route tree. He may not be as well known as some of the other receivers from more well-known university, but his measurables make up for it. When you need a big catch this wide receiver does not disapoint.\nWho is Mike Williams?\nMike Willams attended Lake Marion High School in South Carolina, and \u201cwas rated as the 180th player in the nation, and number 2 in the state of South Carolina\u201d, according to 247sports .com. He then went on to play college football at the University of Clemson-South Carolina. In 2015 he suffered a fracture to the neck during Clemson\u2019s first drive of the season, putting him out for that season, but definitely not out as he would soon prove. In 2016, Willams had 1,361 receiving yards and was the team leader with 98 receptions and 11 touchdowns. Williams caught a touchdown in the final drive against Alabama leading the Tigers to a victory.This guy is unstoppable. He earned his undergraduate degree in sociology in December of 2016 and now he is looking to make his mark in the NFL.\nThe Titans could use this man on their team. He could bring a set of skills the Titans need and are looking for. At Clemson\u2019s pro day Williams ran a 4.55 and showed off his catch radius. The Titans head coach was on hand among many other NFL teams, looking to see what Willams could bring to the table. As normal he showed off his skills like a true professional.",

        "raw_content": "The Broken Symmetry of Time\nA published version of this paper can be found here:\nhttp://link.aip.org/link/?APCPCS/1408/7/1\nDepartment of Philosophy, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA\nAbstract. This paper seeks to clarify features of time asymmetry in terms of symmetry breaking. It is observed that, in general, a contingent situation or event requires the breaking of an underlying symmetry. The distinction between the universal anisotropy of temporal processes and the irreversibility of certain physical processes is clarified. It is also proposed that the Transactional Interpretation of quantum mechanics offers an effective way to explain general thermodynamic asymmetry in terms of the time asymmetry of radiation, where prior such efforts have fallen short.\nKeywords: time symmetry; quantum mechanics interpretations; Wheeler-Feynman theory; Transactional Interpretation\nPACS: 04.20.Cv, 01.70.+w, 03.65.-w\n1. What is symmetry breaking?\nIn a nutshell, symmetry breaking is the selection of a particular event or situation from a set of possible alternative situations characterized by a symmetrical relationship. In more technical terms, symmetry breaking consists in the reduction of the symmetry group characterizing a given physical situation to a subgroup of the original group. Symmetry breaking can be either forced or spontaneous: in the former, there is an asymmetric cause which picks out one from a set of solutions; in the latter, there is no asymmetric cause, yet somehow a particular solution is actualized.\nIn spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB), the governing theory for the phenomenon under study specifies a symmetric situation, schematically illustrated in Figure 1. A component of the theory (e.g., a field) undergoes a transformation in which a multiplicity of states or outcomes is possible, none of which can be \u2018picked out\u2019 by anything in the theory as the realized state or outcome.\nFigure 1 Spontaneous symmetry breaking: a transformation of a theory component in which a multiplicity of states or outcomes is possible, none of which can be \u2018picked out\u2019 by anything in the theory as the realized state or outcome.\nA specific example of this phenomenon occurs in the \u201cHiggs Mechanism\u201d[1] in what is termed the \u201cStandard Model\u201d of elementary particle theory. According to this widely accepted model pioneered by Steven Weinberg and Abdus Salam, the quanta of some force-carrying fields acquire a mass by way of a process in which the ground (vacuum) state of the field undergoes the kind of transformation conceptually depicted above. What was a single vacuum state of the field acquires what is termed a \u201cdegeneracy\u201d\u2014that is, many possible ground states (in fact, an infinite number of them). The symmetry breaking occurs through what is called a \u201cMexican Hat\u201d potential due to its shape. The original ground state becomes unstable and corresponds to the crown of the \u2018hat\u2019; the infinite set of ground states are found all around the ring at the lowest point. The theory does not provide any way of deciding which of these many ground states is realized. But, according to the theory, the fact that the quanta in question have a nonzero mass indicates that one has been realized.\n2. Curie\u2019s Principle and Curie\u2019s Extended Principle\nThe situation just described seems to run afoul of a philosophical doctrine[2] termed \u201cCurie\u2019s Principle\u201d in honor of Pierre Curie who championed it. (The principle is actually a version of Leibniz\u2019 \u201cPrinciple of Sufficient Reason\u201d (PSR), which states that any event occurs for a reason or cause that specifies or determines that particular event, as opposed to some other event. The PSR implies that, absent such a reason or cause, the event in question will not occur.)\nCurie\u2019s Principle states that an asymmetric result (i.e., the choice of one outcome among many equally possible ones) requires an asymmetric cause. That is, it posits that there can be no sound basis for saying that one of the outcomes \u2018just happens\u2019; one must be able to point to a definite reason for that outcome (the reason being the asymmetric cause). This principle is illustrated by a humorous paradox, \u201cBuridan\u2019s Ass,\u201d discussed by French philosopher Jean Buridan, in which a hungry donkey is placed between two equally distant, identical bundles of hay (see Figure 2). According to an implicit version of Curie\u2019s Principle being satirized by Buridan[3], the donkey will starve to death because it has no reason to choose one pile of hay over the other. Of course, our \u2018common sense\u2019 tells us that the donkey will find a way to begin eating hay, even though one can provide no reason for it (hence the paradox). Similarly, in SSB, the field in question arrives in a particular ground state though no specific cause for that choice can be identified. If we take Curie\u2019s Principle to be applicable to the above, then it appears that Nature simply violates the principle (as does a hungry donkey).[4]\nFigure 2. A political cartoon (ca. 1900) satirizing U.S. Congress\u2019 inability to choose between a canal through Panama or Nicaragua, by reference to Buridan\u2019s Ass.\n[Wiki Open Source; public domain]\nThere is another way of looking at this situation, described by Stewart and Golubitsky {1}. These authors point out that Nature seems to be replete with symmetries that are spontaneously \u2018broken,\u2019 similar to the way in which the symmetry of the vacuum state is broken by the Higgs et al. mechanism. In general, a symmetrical system may, under certain circumstances, be capable of occupying any one of a set of symmetrically related states, with no particular state being privileged; thus the particular state in which it happens to be found is arbitrary. Stewart and Golubitsky suggest that this situation should be understood as conforming to an Extended Curie\u2019s Principle (ECP), specifically: \u201cphysically realizable states of a symmetric system come in bunches, related to each other by symmetry\u201d; or, alternatively, \u201ca symmetric cause produces one from a symmetrically related set of effects.\u201d (original italics; 1992, 60.) Technically, the \u2018bunches\u2019 are subgroups of the originally symmetry group which has been \u2018broken\u2019 by the dynamical situation under consideration. ECP amounts to a weakening of Curie\u2019s Principle.\nAs noted by Stewart and Golubitsky, a famous illustration of symmetry breaking appears in the iconic 1957 photo of the splash of a milk droplet by high-speed photography pioneer Harold Edgerton (see link indicated for \u201cFigure 3\u201d). The authors point out that the pool of milk and the droplet both have circular symmetry, but the \u2018crown\u2019 shape of the splash does not\u2014it has the lesser symmetry of a 24-sided polygon. This happens because the ring of milk that rises in the splash reaches an unstable point\u2014a point where the sheet of liquid cannot become any thinner\u2014and \u2018buckles\u2019 into discrete clumps (the laws of fluid dynamics predict that there are 24 clumps). But the locations of the clumps are arbitrary; that is, the clump appearing just beneath the white droplet above the crown could just as well have been a few degrees to the left (with all the other clumps being shifted by the same amount). An infinite number of such crowns are possible, but only one of them is realized in any particular splash.\nFIGURE 3. Harold Edgerton\u2019s iconic milk droplet splash photo.\nMIT\u00a9 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Courtesy of MIT Museum\nThus, the authors point out that, while the mathematics describing a particular situation may provide for a large, even infinite, number of possible states for a system to occupy, in the actual world only one of these states can be realized. They put it this way:\n\u201cA buckling sphere can\u2019t buckle into two shapes at the same time. So, while the full potentiality of possible states retains complete symmetry, what we observe seems to break it. A coin has two symmetrically related sides, but when you toss it it has to end up either heads or tails: not both. Flipping the coin breaks its flip symmetry: the actual breaks the symmetry of the potential.\u201d (1992, 60.)\nThe last sentence has been italicized because it expresses a deep and important principle: mathematical descriptions of nature, with their high degree of symmetry, in general describe a world of possibilities rather than a specific state of affairs. Nevertheless, the astute reader may well raise the following question: but isn\u2019t it the case that, in the classical domain, we can always find some external influence, however small, that caused the system to end up in one particular state as opposed to some other possible state? This would seem to apply, for example, in classical chaotic systems such the double pendulum (See Figure 4). For large initial momentum, such a system\u2019s set of possible trajectories encounter \u2018bifurcation points\u2019 (essentially \u2018forks in the road\u2019) in which a specific choice of trajectory is sensitive to perturbations down to the Planck scale (i.e., random quantum fluctuations).\nFigure 4. A double pendulum, whose classically-described motion\nencounters bifurcation points.\nThe authors address this, at least in part, as follows:\n\u201cwe said that mathematically the laws that apply to symmetric systems can sometimes predict not just a single effect, but a whole set of symmetrically related effects. However, Mother Nature has to choose which of those effects she wants to implement.\nHow does she choose?\nThe answer seems to be: imperfections. Nature is never perfectly symmetric. Nature\u2019s circles always have tiny dents and bumps. There are always tiny fluctuations, such as the thermal vibration of molecules. These tiny imperfections load nature\u2019s dice in favor of one or the other of the set of possible effects that the mathematics of perfect symmetry considers to be equally possible.\u201d (1992, 15)\nThus, the apparent answer of the authors to the question of what causes the system to end up in a particular state is: quantum fluctuations. That is, the cause is found outside the mathematical formulation of the set of possible solutions for the classical system (or, in the case of certain chaotic system such as the double pendulum above, by following the classical account into the quantum domain in which its deterministic aspect breaks down). It appears that, strictly speaking, when considering symmetry breaking in the classical domain, one could always point to some external cause of this type, even if only a random quantum fluctuation. So when the authors say that \u201cthe actual breaks the symmetry of the potential,\u201d they are not yet describing the quantum domain. Instead, they are describing the realization of a particular classical state from an idealized, abstract set of equally possible states, where the realization can be attributed to the existence of a quantum domain that can \u2018precipitate\u2019 a particular classical state by way of random quantum fluctuations. One can therefore point to the fluctuation precipitating the specific outcome as the \u2018asymmetrical cause\u2019 required by Curie\u2019s Principle.\nIf we return to the case of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the Standard Model, clearly we are dealing with symmetry breaking in a purely quantum context: the system comprises the vacuum and the Higgs field, purely quantum entities. If we want to try to follow the same procedure and to seek a specific cause \u2014 however fleeting and random \u2014 for the choice of one of the infinite set of possible vacuum states, we either have to suppose that it also stems from fundamentally indeterministic quantum fluctuations of the vacuum, or postulate fluctuations in some deeper realm that lies outside any current theory. The point is still that \u201cthe actual breaks the symmetry of the potential,\u201d however this is accomplished. The only alternative is to postulate that SSB in the Standard Model requires a \u2018many worlds\u2019 interpretation, in which SSB gives rise to many possible worlds, each with a different vacuum state. But this is certainly not the usual approach, which simply assumes that the actual universe corresponds to one particular vacuum state.\nThe authors of \u201cFearful Symmetry\u201d further note that instances of symmetry breaking give rise to concrete structures that often seem to reflect design or intent. An interesting example is found in crop circles. The authors point out that an unblemished field of corn has a very high degree of symmetry: translation, reflection, and rotational symmetries. If symmetry is broken at a point\u2014say by a falling object, such as a hailstone\u2014the effect will ripple out radially to create a circle. A particular rotational center has been chosen from among an infinite number of equally \u2018eligible\u2019 ones, and concrete structure is born. The structure must obey the underlying rotational symmetry and it is also constrained by the nature of the objects comprising it. In the case of the crop circle, the physical properties of the cornstalks, together with the energy of the falling object or other precipitating event, will dictate the radius of the circle.\nThe point here is that the appearance of organized, symmetrical structures in the empirical world should not be taken as an argument against asymmetry but rather as an argument in favor of the need for asymmetry; that is, one requires lesser symmetry than the underlying theory governing possibilities rather than actualities, if one is to have an empirical world of experience with concrete objects, systems, and events.\n3. Time and symmetry breaking\nBefore considering time symmetry and its breaking, we need to distinguish two features of time symmetry that are often conflated: (1) the anisotropy of all temporal processes and (2) the irreversibility of certain temporal processes. Feature (1) is simply the observation that temporal events constitute an ordered sequence that proceeds, like a set of movie frames, in only one direction (i.e., monodirectionally as the index t increases or decreases). This is qualitatively different from the case of spatial events which (in one spatial dimension x) can be bidirectional or (in three spatial directions) can be omnidirectional, like an expanding spherical wave.\nFeature (2) is the observation, familiar from thermodynamics, that if we \u2018run the movie backwards\u2019 most macroscopic processes (such as cream mixing into coffee) look physically unreasonable; while similar time-reversals of microscopic processes (such as small numbers of air molecules in a box) look reasonable. The former processes are termed \u2018irreversible\u2019 and the latter \u2018reversible.\u2019 But it is important to keep in mind that there is a distinction between (2) the observation that \u2018running the movie backwards\u2019 can produce unrealistic phenomena, and (1) the observation that there is a \u2018movie\u2019 in the first place. It is to (1) that we now direct our attention, since it is more fundamental.\nWhat kind of world would we have if temporal processes were just as isotropic as spatial processes? On reflection, we can\u2019t even conceive of such a world in any empirical sense; for in order to perceive anything, we can only perceive it as a sequence of events. One might call this a \u2018transcendental argument\u2019 for the anisotropy of time; the empirical world of our experience is simply not recovered for isotropic temporal processes, whatever that might mean. In other words, in order for us to experience what we know we experience, events must proceed monodirectionally in temporal index t. By convention, we designate that direction by increasing values of t. Thus the \u2018breaking\u2019 of time symmetry (i.e., time isotropy) seems required a priori, simply to account for the possibility of empirical experience. In what follows we examine the breaking of time symmetry as also contingent on energy propagation.\n4. Time symmetric theories\nWhile we can\u2019t experience isotropic temporal processes, there nevertheless are temporally isotropic theories. These are conventionally called \u201ctime symmetric\u201d theories, so let\u2019s revert to that usage, keeping in mind that \u2018time symmetry\u2019 here really means \u2018time isotropy.\u2019 An example is the Wheeler-Feynman theory of classical electrodynamics {2} (\u2018WFED\u2019), which uses a time-symmetric field together with time-asymmetric cosmological boundary conditions to recover the apparent time-asymmetric fields of standard classical electrodynamics (CED).\nOne might wonder why we should entertain a time-symmetric theory, which seems counterintuitive. The motivation for doing so is that our unidirectional temporal experience is evidence of a broken symmetry. Symmetries are broken by way of boundary conditions, such as those arising from the constraints on the milk droplet as it hits the pool, even if they don\u2019t determine the ultimate position of the milk droplet coronet. Just as we don\u2019t apply boundary conditions until the droplet hits the pool, the most general approach is to refrain from imposing boundary conditions until the underlying law is confronted with contingent features of our universe. The methodological advantage of this approach is that it avoids imposing possibly ad hoc explanations and conditions which may not actually hold in our universe; instead, it allows the theory itself to tell us what is required for the contingent asymmetries that we experience.\nIt must also be emphasized that, in finding general solutions for wave equations describing fields, specific boundary conditions must occur in order for energy to be propagated by way of those fields. That is, if one assumes a point source for the field (this corresponds to the inhomogeneous field equation), the solution is singular for real energies. One cannot obtain a physically meaningful solution (Green\u2019s function, also termed a \u2018propagator\u2019) without analytic continuation of the frequency (energy) coordinate and choice of a contour of integration; the latter corresponds to choice of boundary conditions. This suggests that fields arising from sources cannot actually propagate energy unless specific boundary conditions (corresponding to a choice of integration contour) exist.[5]\nOne such propagator is the \u2018retarded\u2019 propagator which allows for propagation of positive energies only in the forward time direction (into the future). This solution is the one used in classical electromagnetic theory; the advanced solution which allows negative energy to propagate into the future (or positive energy to propagate into the past) is simply dropped as \u2018unphysical.\u2019 However, this approach does not account for the loss of energy (\u2018radiative damping\u2019) by an emitting particle, and an ad hoc additional free field must be assumed (see below).\nWheeler and Feynman (WF) decided to explore a time-symmetric approach because they were not satisfied with the standing method of dealing with radiative damping. Dirac {3}{ had proposed that damping can be explained by a free field (that is, a field not attributed to any source) in addition to the basic retarded (unidirectional, positive t direction) propagation by the charge. While this seemed to account for the observed energy loss, WF were dissatisfied by its ad hoc character. They proposed instead that the basic propagation due to the charge was time-symmetric, where the time symmetric propagator is simply the sum of half the retarded and half the advanced propagators. WF proposed that other charges (absorbers) responded to that initial time-symmetric field by emitting their time-symmetric field out of phase with the stimulating field. If the universe is a \u2018light tight box\u2019\u2014if there are sufficiently many absorbers for each emitter \u2013 the collective response of the absorbing particles turns out to provide, at the location of the emitting charge, the apparent \u2018free field\u2019 needed to account for loss of energy by the radiating charge. It also provides for cancellation of the retarded field beyond the absorbers (which is why they absorb), and of advanced propagation (of positive energy into the past) due to the emitter (so no residual advanced effects remain). Thus the asymmetric boundary condition of the preponderance of absorbers vs. emitters provides for the apparent time-asymmetry of radiation, as well as a natural (non-ad hoc) explanation for the absorption of energy and of radiative damping).\nThe WF theory thus describes radiation of energy as a direct (time-symmetric) interaction between sources (sinks), and the emitting particle is taken as not interacting at all with its own emitted field (where the latter process is commonly referred to as \u2018self-interaction\u2019). Such theories are called \u201cdirect action\u201d (DA) theories. However, it later became evident that some form of self-interaction was needed to account for certain relativistic effects (such as the Lamb shift {4}). Davies {5} introduced this feature into a quantum relativistic extension of the Wheeler Feynman theory.\nIt remains a matter for further investigation as to whether DA-type theories are empirically equivalent to standard quantum field theories (QFT). However, to date there is no conclusive evidence or argument that DA theories are not empirically equivalent to QFT, and there is much to recommend them in methodological terms, as argued above. Some researchers dislike DA theories because they are generally impractical for doing computations, since they depend explicitly on the actual boundary conditions of the generating sources and sinks (for which the technical term is \u2018currents\u2019) both in the future and in the past; there is no independent field with degrees of freedom of its own that can be quantized (i.e., treated as harmonic oscillators with discrete states of excitation). In contrast, standard field theories use quantized fields as independent entities and therefore do not need to explicitly refer to the currents that generate them. While standard quantum field theories are therefore much better computational tools, that pragmatic fact does not rule out the distinct possibility that Nature actually uses direct action in the universe , of which we can only study a small portion in any given computation.\n5. Boundary conditions and the arrow of time\nAs noted above, assuming only retarded field propagation does not allow for radiative damping; an ad hoc free field must be imposed. A more natural and general approach takes the underlying propagation as time symmetric (isotropic) and seeks to discover what actual boundary conditions must exist in order for energy to be transferred from one place to another in accordance with empirical observation. This turns out to be the condition that the universe is a \u2018light-tight box\u2019; i.e., fields do not propagate to infinity.\nIt has been observed in the past (e.g. Ritz 1909, as quoted in Zeh {7}) that one could relate the apparent asymmetry of electromagnetic radiation to the thermodynamic \u2018arrow\u2019 \u2013 i.e., the preponderance of irreversible physical processes (such as the mixing of coffee and milk discussed above). However, those approaches simply omitted the advanced electromagnetic wave solution a priori and assumed that the asymmetry of the retarded radiation solution alone could be extended to the general thermodynamic asymmetry.[6] This was problematic because the latter applies to neutral particles as well, and would therefore seem to have nothing to do with electromagnetic fields. If, in contrast to the traditional rejection of advanced solutions, we suppose that the underlying laws are truly time-symmetric, then the apparent asymmetry of radiation (i.e., retarded only) is due to the asymmetry of boundary conditions involving the distribution of charges. But the question remains: how can this approach to electrodynamics be extended to neutral particles? A possible answer may be found in a time-symmetric interpretation of quantum mechanics based on the WF approach: the Transactional Interpretation.\n6. The Transactional Interpretation\nJohn G. Cramer introduced the Transactional Interpretation (TI) of quantum mechanics in the 1980s {8}. He saw TI as a natural generalization of the Wheeler-Feynman approach that would serve to explain the Born Rule yielding the probabilities for results of measurements; he also saw advanced solutions as manifest in such ubiquitous features of the Hilbert Space quantum formalism as inner products.\nTI proposes that the standard quantum state (\u2018ket\u2019) corresponds to the retarded electromagnetic solution, and the adjoint quantum state (\u2018bra\u2019) corresponds to the advanced electromagnetic wave solution. It proposes that whenever a source (in this case a source (current) for the quantum field corresponding to the quantum under study) emits the field solution described by a \u2018ket\u2019 it also emits the field solution described by a \u2018bra\u2019, and that other currents respond to the emitted field exactly as the \u2018absorber\u2019 in the WF formalism: i.e., out of phase such that the advanced field of the emitter and the retarded field beyond the absorber is cancelled. As in the WF theory, transfer of energy takes place from the emitter to the absorber. The difference between TI and the WF picture is of course that the former is a quantum process in which energy is transferred as discrete packets rather than continuously. This implies that, even though many \u2018absorbing\u2019 currents are involved in the necessary cancellation and reinforcement of the requisite fields, only one can be chosen for the ultimate transfer of energy. Such potential transactions (i,e. potential transfers of energy from the emitter to each of the participating absorbers) are called \u2018incipient transactions\u2019 and the one chosen out of the set of incipient transactions is called an \u2018actualized transaction.\u2019\nIf the preceding situation sounds familiar, it should; it is analogous to spontaneous symmetry breaking as in the case of the milk droplet and the Higgs mechanism. The only difference is that in TI, some incipient transactions may be more probable than others. In fact, their probabilities are precisely given by the Born Rule (as demonstrated in Cramer 1986). It is suggested that this can be viewed as a kind of \u2018weighted symmetry breaking\u2019 in that clearly not all transactions can be realized, but some are more probable than others.\nNow, recall that TI applies to all quantum fields, including neutral ones. While thermodynamic irreversibility is usually thought of as applying to macroscopic (classical) systems, it must be kept in mind that the quantum level is the more fundamental one which must underlie all classical phenomena. The transactional interpretation of quantum theory tells us that all transfers of energy (and other conserved physical quantities) take place due to the interaction of an emitted field with \u2018absorbers\u2019 conforming to the boundary conditions needed for cancellation of residual advanced and retarded fields\u2014where the latter are all quantum fields, not just charged ones. It can thus account for general thermodynamic irreversibility in the same terms as the asymmetry of radiation, by attributing both to the breaking of symmetry of an underlying theory.\nThe picture that emerges is the following: symmetrical physical laws describe potentialities, not actualities. In order to have actual events in an actual world, the symmetries of those laws must be broken by the imposition of constraints in the form of boundary conditions. Such boundary conditions may not always specify which actual event or form will exist \u2013 often that specific event will arise from spontaneous symmetry breaking \u2014 but they serve to precipitate that actuality. In the case of Edgerton\u2019s milk droplet coronet structure, the precipitating boundary condition is the physical limit of the thinning of the milk surface in the rising splash. In the case of energy propagation, the precipitating boundary condition is the preponderance of absorbers compared to emitters; and further, in the quantum case, the restriction of energy propagation to discrete quanta. Neither the milk droplet coronet structure nor the transfer of energy would take place in the absence of the relevant boundary conditions.\nSince the direction of positive energy transfer dictates the direction of change (the emitter loses energy and the absorber gains energy), and time is precisely the domain of change (or at least the construct we use to record our experience of change), it is the broken symmetry with respect to energy propagation that establishes the directionality or anisotropy of time. [7] The reason for the \u2018arrow of time\u2019 is that the symmetry of physical law must be broken: \u2018the actual breaks the symmetry of the potential.\u2019\nIt is often viewed as a mystery that there are irreversible physical processes and that radiation diverges toward the future. The view presented herein is that, on the contrary, it would be more surprising if physical processes were reversible, because along with that reversibility we would have time-symmetric (isotropic) processes, which would fail to transfer energy, preclude change, and therefore render the whole notion of time meaningless.\nIt has been argued that the \u2018arrow of time\u2019 is a result of symmetry breaking of the physical laws governing energy propagation. The same boundary conditions necessary for propagation of energy in a time-symmetric theory may serve to explain thermodynamic irreversibility when that theory is extended to the quantum domain which underlies all macroscopic processes. Thus the most economical and natural explanation of both aspects of the \u2018arrow of time\u2019 is that basic physical laws are symmetrical with respect to both space and time but describe only potentialities, and that actual events and processes arise because of symmetry breaking due to contingent boundary conditions.\nAcknowledgements.

R. Hagen, and Tom Kibble.\n[2] Referring to something as a \u2018philosophical doctrine\u2019 simply means that it is presumed to be true on the basis of certain metaphysical or epistemological beliefs or principles. Modern physical theory could be taken as indicating that the PSR may not be applicable to the physical world, however compelling it may seem to those who have championed it.\n[3] Buridan was satirizing the doctrine of moral determinism, which views a person\u2019s moral actions and choices as fully determined by past events.\n[4] Is there a volitional basis for actualization? Buridan\u2019s ass is hungry, so he chooses to eat one of the piles of hay, even if there is no \u2018reason\u2019 for it. Does Nature then express a certain volitional capacity? Or, put another way, could such an uncaused \u2018choice\u2019 be seen as evidence of the creativity of Nature?\n[5] Furthermore, energy is only propagated between sources and sinks due to the possibility of complex energies \u2013 corresponding to virtual particles or \u2018propagators\u2019 in relativistic field theories. This subtlety concerning the ontology of energy propagation is routinely overlooked in most discussions of Green\u2019s functions and their various forms.\n[6] It should be noted here that many extant discussions of this issue (e.g. Callendar {6}) assume that retarded fields only describe emission and advanced solutions only describe absorption of radiation \u2013 i.e., that the latter describe phenomena surrounding radiation sinks. However, this is one proposal among many, and does not address radiative damping which remains unaccounted for (except by invoking the ad hoc free field of Dirac). See also Price {9}.\n[7] Recall also that energy is conjugate to time in quantum mechanics.\n17 thoughts on \u201cThe Broken Symmetry of Time\u201d\npaul fredericks says:\nThe transition from observable universe to dark matter requires a new construct of physics as even the depths of quantum physics can not bridge the gap to dark matter. So a new theory needs to evolve where human thought is forever changed. Human experience and thought is limited to the senses and the tools created to expand that experience.\nAs such humans put limits like the universe is 13 billions years old and it started with a big bang. What nonsense. That handicap is a result of our ethics and morality and self importance and logical preferences and we prefer to be self centered\u2026\u2026.\nPaul Fredericks, welcome@1wsh.com\nCould it be that the absorber transfers a bra and a ket too? In that case, I imagine a more symmetric situation. Because two bra\u2019s and two ket\u2019s can be compared to a measure of probabilty, we have a parabolic function. To actualize a transaction, one could think of the amount of resonance between the bra\u2019s and ket\u2019s flying around haha! Is this possible?\nI don\u2019t think so\u2026according to PTI we ultimately do end up with an asymmetric situation in that energy gets transferred FROM the emitter TO the absorber. We need that, because we need to explain why we see this happening. The dividend is that we get a theory that actually explains our experience of \u2018time\u2019s arrow\u2019.\nCould there be another way in principle to explain time\u2019s arrow?\nIf that is the case, I probably better drop my own \u2018theory\u2019 and adopt (P)TI. Sorry for intruding your site with comments about \u2018my own theory\u2019; It is not allowed on Physics Forums. People like you probably get this all the time. If you are right, I better do studying!\nI came up with the following (once and for all ;) ):\nSuppose on the offer side we have a probabilityamplitude of , and similarly on the confirmation side .\nWe can suppose the retarded communication consists of transfering the |y> state of the amplitude, and the advanced communication transfering the |x> state.\nThen, after transfer, we have an amplitude of of the offer side, and an amplitude of on the confirmation side.\nIf we observe the interaction as atemporal, we can suppose a midflight-probability-weight of , or of a transaction taking place.\nDo I have something here?\nSorry, the brackets don\u2019t work so my comment makes no sense!\nBrackets changed to {}:\nSuppose on the offer side we have a probabilityamplitude of {y|y}, and similarly on the confirmation side {x|x}.\nWe can suppose the retarded communication consists of transfering the |y} state of the amplitude, and the advanced communication transfering the |x} state.\nThen, after transfer, we have an amplitude of {y|x} of the offer side, and an amplitude of {x|y} on the confirmation side.\nIf we observe the interaction as atemporal, we can suppose a midflight-probability-weight of {y|x}{x|y}, or {x|y}{y|x} of a transaction taking place.\nPingback: The Broken Symmetry of Time | random thoughts into words\nThere are other attempts to explain it in terms of entropy, but I think this is the best solution because it also explains the 2nd law. It does that by explaining \u2018thermal randomness\u2019 by real collapse (transactions). It\u2019s hard to get randomness out of deterministic, time-symmetric physical laws \u2014 you have to assume special initial conditions to do it. If we have real, indeterministic collapse then we get randomness out of that.\nNo problem! Feel free to post any questions/comments you might have.\nYes, that\u2019s basically what already happens in the transactional process! Have you seen this post: https://transactionalinterpretation.org/2015/03/10/a-unified-account-of-relativistic-and-non-relativistic-quantum-theory/\nScroll down to the figure showing the emitter and some absorbers.\nYes, actually I was reading it and trying to fit it into the model I had in mind. My model proposes the phenomenon \u2018resonance\u2019, which is a non-linear temporary escalation of probabilities due to bi-directional interference, so that some transactions get favoured over others. This way we have full symmetry and yet entropy. (It also suggests things about consciousness and free will) However, this sounds fancier than it actually is, for I am just a layman on physics. I regard myself a thinker though haha! ;) (when I\u2019m up to it)\nAnd non-causal. \u2018Resonance\u2019 refers to future effects and past effects just resonating and not causing each other. :)\nI came up with a different notion regarding resonance. Not part of the quantumworld, but part of systems. I won\u2019t elaborate, for you would think I would be a genius while I\u2019m actually mad haha!\nLOL, well have fun with it! :D\nlarry o'brien says:\nwhy put yourself down \u201cmad haha\u201d? the universe is yours!",

Source: Shutterstock.\nTHE number of expatriates moving to Southeast Asia in recent years has increased significantly owing to increased job opportunities and high growth emerging markets in the region.\nWith better infrastructure and amenities mushrooming in the region\u2019s main urban centers over the past decade alone, coupled with attractive higher living standards comparable to western equivalents, it is little wonder why foreign expatriates are arriving in droves to live and work in Southeast Asian nations.\nAnd with migration comes the need for the foreign workers to find a place they can call home, especially in places where they can mix and mingle among each other in the host nation.\nIs Hong Kong still the most expensive city in Asia for expats?\nWith that in mind, the Asian Correspondent has come up with a list of five popular districts for expat living and accommodation.\nKemang, Jakarta\nThe construction of Kemang Village in 2013 has given the area a modern-yet-charming village vibe. Source: Shutterstock\nSituated along the streets of Jalan Kemang Raya and Jalan Kemang, southwest of Jakarta\u2019s city-center, Kemang is an attractive are for expats due to its proximity to renowned international schools and an array of popular western restaurants and night spots. The myriad of luxury villas and condominiums also make it ideal for the expat community there which are closely knit. The construction of Kemang Village in 2013 has given the area a charming village vibe while imported food was easily accessible at sundry shops that have English-speaking staff.\nMont Kiara is attractive due to the availability of international schools, shopping centers, and entertainment outlets.

According to Expat Living, while Orchard Road is a hive of activity, the surrounding neighborhoods are surprisingly quaint. While rent here comes at a premium rate, residents have Orchard Road\u2019s famous shopping malls at their doorstep, not to mention the variety of cinemas, restaurants, hotels, and other services on offer. The efficient public transportation system in the area also allows one to get by their working lives in the country without having to buy their own vehicle.\nMakati, Manila\nMakati Skyline at night.

Known for its safety, Makati also provides plenty of business office spaces, making the central business district the heart through which the capital\u2019s economy flows, according to website Rent In Makati. Most expats would opt for a condominium unit in locations such as Rockwell, Salcedo Village, and Legaspi Village, among others.\nGreat coffee shops and a large range of western foods also allows expats feel close to home.

A chance to study from any distance or be capable to acquire an education while on a trip is a good tool for college kids who\u2019ve that require.\nResearch has shown that children at a younger age are increasing track of a chance to employ some other part of their brain than adults use. Adults seem to be unable to get access to the therapy lamp with the brain. This can be considered to be due to youngsters maturing surrounded by electronic education. Since children at a younger age are adjusting to and using technology per day to day life setting, they may be better suited to use technology for their advantage. This study also implies that since kids are becoming an adult with this type of technology, they\u2019re able to apply themselves easier to learning environments that are online rather than in the classroom setting.\nUsing an selection of different technological settings, distant online learning is a great tool to hire in case your student is apt and at learning by themselves instead of having a population group. Traditional classroom learning can be tough for a lot of, so having online options can allow for various learning styles.\nWith internet learning being such a large percentage of today\u2019s world, it is a tool which can be used by both teachers and students alike. For a few teachers, this is often a much easier method to focus on the student\u2019s learning needs. By being familiar with types of learning, a tutor can employ all the tools at his disposal to instruct students in terms they learn best. As an example, some students don\u2019t raise their hands and give answers within the classroom, but enjoy the deficiency of confrontation in email and readily respond.\nCreating a safe environment per student to understand and make use of their knowledge is essential to enhance and expand their learning capabilities. Because online learning will not restrict hours, celebrate a wide open distinct communication between students and teachers. Trainees can email an instructor in the center of the night, however the teacher doesn\u2019t always have to bother with responding prior to the middle of the day when it\u2019s convenient for him.\nkursy go to see this popular resource.",

Will this new TV series be a hit in the ratings? Will BBC America and Netflix (which distributes the show outside the US) want to bring it back for a second season? Could it be cancelled? Stay tuned.\nLoosely based on novels by Douglas Adams, the Dirk Gently\u2019s Holistic Detective Agency TV series revolves around an eccentric time-traveling \u201cholistic detective\u201d (Samuel Barnett) and his reluctant sidekick, a washed up rocker (Elijah Wood). A collection of wild and dangerous characters\u2019 further infiltrate and complicate their world. The cast also includes Hannah Marks, Jade Eshete, Fiona Dourif, Aaron Douglas, Dustin Milligan, Michael Eklund, Miguel Sandoval, Mpho Koaho, Neil Brown Jr., Osric Chau, Richard Schiff, Ty Olsson, Viv Leacock, and Zak Santiago.\nUpdate: This series has been renewed for a second season.

Others will certainly watch it and be hooked.\nJRowand\nI loved, loved, loved Dirk Gently\u2019s Holistic Detective Agency. So bummed that it would be cancelled, boooo BBC!\nRead Douglas Adam\u2019s books and although loved (LOVED!) the books, and the show is nothing like them, I love the show and it needs to continue! It certainly does not have the same humour as the books, nor the layout of how the story unfolds, but there is an essence of that still there that gets you hooked and wanting to know more. Please renew for not only another season but a few more! I haven\u2019t been hooked on any series as much as this one. Thanks in advance \ud83d\ude42\nTho it\u2019s been decades since I read the books, this series seemed to share nothing but the title with them. It was completely lacking even a sniff of Douglas Adams briliantly tangential humor.\nBut given how daunting a time loop story is to mount, I can respect the attempt.\nDiane Laskin\nVERY disappointed if it\u2019s not renewed.\nStuart Pitt\nIt was renewed for a second season in November. They didn\u2019t update the text in this summary to reflect that yet.\nThanks for noticing that. It\u2019s been updated.\nit is NOTHING like the books or the former version of the show from 2012 (i believe).\nIt is the biggest load of shite i\u2019ve ever watched.\nThe main character is a douche \u2013 Dirk is suppossed to be a hapless idiot \u2013 almost a con man for which nothing works out apart from the solution to the odd case \u2013 always by accident.\nWhatever idiot is writing this needs to get a lobotomy.\nDirk Gently may be off to a slow start with viewers, but I love it! Give it time to develop, and we\u2019ll have a great series on hand.\nIt\u2019s good enough for BBC\u2019s America standard. Its higher than it\u2019s current flagship show, Orphan Black. If it won\u2019t lose much or even maintain these number in the coming weeks, it\u2019ll get renewed.",

Studies show that patient-centered communication between clinicians and patients predict more favorable clinical outcomes among people with diabetes and other conditions but have not been widely implemented, particularly among low income populations. It is critical to find the most effective and efficient ways to communicate the results of comparative effectiveness research results to patients and clinicians to support informed decision making, decrease cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality for minority and low-income populations in order to close the disparity gap in diabetes and CVD. Our team will implement and evaluate two approaches to patient-centered communication in Federally Qualified Health Centers in Michigan. One of these involves the use of mobile phone messaging (SMS) as reinforcement during care. This presentation will focus on the user experience evaluation plans we have made to iteratively improve the quality of service throughout the intervention.\nThis presentation explores the content analysis of the online privacy policies of twenty-three organizations operating in the \u201cbig data\u201d arena. Because these organizations are in the business of collecting and analyzing voluminous data for the purposes of trend forecasting and behavioral profiling, it is important to evaluate the content and usability of their privacy policies. It is a difficult issue because technology continues to advance, privacy policy standards continue to evolve, and the law is unclear on many aspects of privacy. The results reveal how privacy policies are structured and what organizations disclose about their information practices and users' rights.\nBroadening our vision to design for everyone is a conscious act of innovation. Instead of focusing on barriers, we can focus on enabling expression in multiple ways, for products that are modern, global, responsive and which work for people with a wide range of abilities. If we aim to design for all senses we can focus on good design to create delightful user experiences where accessibility and usability work together. The core design principles for a web for everyone start from people first, and end with universal usability. In between they cover all the aspects of good user experience: interaction, wayfinding, presentation, language, and media. When we put all this together, we get a user experience that is not only usable but accessible, and even delightful.",

Sonia Legg reports.\n4% is today's daily digit in Europe - the better-than-expected rise in sales at H&M. The world's second largest fashion retailer appears to be reflecting the fortunes of its largest market. As Europe saw the first signs of recovery, H&M reported its biggest rise in sales in 11 months. Figures for August from stores open more than a year were 1% higher than a Reuters poll predicted. Total sales for the month were also 1% higher than forecast - and rose 14%. Many clothing retailers in Europe have been struggling in recent years as consumers have cut back spending. H&M in particular has failed to keep up with its larger rival Inditex largely because it's more Europe-focussed.

        "raw_content": "TV series 'American Gods' reflects timely issues\nSci-fi and fantasy novelist Neil Gaiman explains why the television adaptation of his hit book, 'American Gods', is more relevant than ever. Rough Cut - no reporter narration.\nROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) A TV series following an ex-convict embroiled in a battle between ancient mythological gods and new man-made deities has tapped into a timely discussion of America's own history of race, religion and immigration. \"American Gods,\" an adaptation of British author Neil Gaiman's 2001 novel of the same name, is reimagined as a stylized gritty saga. It debuted on U.S. premium cable network Starz this week. With gruesome killings and explicit sex scenes, the show has been compared to HBO's hit medieval fantasy series \"Game of Thrones,\" but it explores underlying themes of how religion became a part of the fabric of America through its immigrants. \"The use of the gods was ... to talk about the way people come to America and abandon culture, abandon places they came from and what they brought with them, and what happens to the things they've forgotten,\" Gaiman told Reuters. \"American Gods\" follows Shadow Moon, who has been released from prison to the news that his wife, Laura, was killed along with his best friend. On his journey home to bury her, he meets Mr. Wednesday, once known as the powerful Norse god Odin, but now a grifter hustling on the strength of his charm. Shadow, hired as Mr. Wednesday's bodyguard, is thrown into a surreal world where magic and power lurk just behind the fabric of reality. Tension brews among the old gods, which include those drawn from Norse, African, Arabian and Indian mythology, and new gods such as Technical Boy and Media. \"One clear thematic from the book is religious equality and tolerance, and that was something that Michael and I wanted to portray,\" said Bryan Fuller, who created the show with Michael Green. The TV adaptation features a racially diverse cast, and its exploration of race and immigration collides with present day tensions in America. Fuller said \"American Gods\" was written and filmed before the November election of U.S. President Donald Trump, who has sought to crack down on illegal immigration and act more aggressively to deport illegal immigrants living in the United States. But, he added, it reflects the changes within the nation. The show depicts stories of immigrants coming to America over the course of history and adding their traditions to the melting pot of cultures. \"We always look at immigration in a positive light because it represents the best of what America is made of,\" Fuller said.",

        "raw_content": "Herefordshire or Hereford, an inland county of England, contiguous to Wales. It is bounded on the NW by Radnorshire, on the N by Salop, on the NE by Worcestershire, on the E by Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, on the SE by Gloucestershire, on the S by Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire, on the W by Brecknockshire and Radnorshire. Its outline has considerable curves and saliencies, yet may be described as proximately circular. Its greatest length, from N to S, is 38 miles, its greatest breadth; from E to W, is 35 miles; its circumference is about 180 miles, and its area is 537,363 acres. Its northern boundary is traced at intervals by the river Teme, and its southern boundary is traced by the rivers Wye and Monnow. Its eastern border is marked to a considerable extent by the Malvern Hills, its western border by the Black Mountains, and its interior is a rich diversity of hill and valley, closely resembling some parts of Kent, well wooded, beautiful, and picturesque. The chief streams, besides the Teme, the Wye, and the Monnow, are the Lugg, the Arrow, the Frome, the two Leadons, the Garron, and the Dore. The streams with their flanks are generally charming, and the Wye, which not only traces part of the boundary but also traverses very much of the interior, is pre-eminently lovely. A tract in the NW, contiguous to Wales and to Salop, and a tract in the E, between the rivers Frome and Wye, consist of upper Silurian rocks, and nearly all the rest of the county is old red sandstone. Iron was worked by the Romans, limestone is found at Ledbury, Aymestry, and Woolhope, and small quantities of fuller's earth, pipe-clay, and ochre occur in some places. The county formed a considerable part of Siluria.\nThe soil in general is a mixture of clay and marl, with occasional beds of gravel, and is peculiarly adapted to the growth of orchard and timber trees. Estates and farms are large. Orchards are everywhere numerous; have been cultivated since the time of Charles I.; occupy in some instances from 30 to 40 acres each; contain about twenty choice varieties of apple for cider, and about seven of pear for perry; and yield on the average from 300 to 375 bushels of fruit per acre. The oxen are a very fine breed, of large size and red-brown colour, with white faces and soft coats. They were introduced about the middle of the 17th century by Lord Scudamore. The sheep are a cross between the Ryeland and the Leicester. The horses are of medium goodness, and many draught ones are reared. Manufactures are on a very small scale, and consist chiefly in gloves, hats, and woollens. The railway system of the county is very complete, and practically converges at Hereford. A G.W. line runs SW from Hereford through Pontrilas and Abergavenny. A second line runs SE to Ross, whence one branch goes SW to Monmouth, while another goes E to Gloucester. A third line runs E to Dedbury, where it branches off NE to Malvem, and SE to Gloucester. Due N from Hereford the G.W. and L. & N.W. Joint line runs through Leominster to Shrewsbury, while a branch of the G.W.R. from Worcester crosses it at Leominster, and runs W to New Radnor, with branches to Presteign and Eardisley. The M.R. has a line running W from Hereford through Hay into Brecknockshire, and Hay is connected with Pontrilas by the Golden Valley line.\nHerefordshire Archive Service\nHR1 2QX\nList of Registration Districts in Herefordshire from 1837 to 1974.\nThe Historical Directories web site have a number of directories relating to Herefordshire online, including:\nWe have Pigot & Co.'s Directory of Herefordshire, 1835 available to browse.\nA listing of the Hundreds in Herefordshire, with the parishes contained in them.\nThe Return of Owners of Land in 1873 for Herefordshire is available to browse.\nOld map of Herefordshire circa 1848 (Samuel Lewis)\nOld map of Herefordshire circa 1895 (Gazetteer of England and Wales)\nThe British Newspaper Archive have fully searchable digitised copies of the following Herefordshire newspapers online:\nHereford Journal\nThe population of Herefordshire in 1801 was 88,436; in 1811, 93,526; 1821, 102,692; 1831, 110,617; 1841, 113,272; 1851, 115,489; 1861, 123,712; 1871, 125,370; 1881, 121,062; in 1891, 115,949, and in 1901, 114,125.

        "raw_content": "Home News China\u2019s Flagging Domestic Motorcycle Industry\nChina\u2019s Flagging Domestic Motorcycle Industry\nOver the last few months a lot has been alluded to about the Chinese motorcycle domestic market and its roll on affect for export trade, but what exactly ails the Chinese domestic motorcycle industry?\nChina does not have an obvious \u2018used\u2019 car industry. It is very rare to see a forecourt of used cars (I have never seen one) and all the used car transactions that I know of are private affairs. It seems that cars are not replacing motorcycles for the working and agrarian classes but still the domestic market profits and sales are plummeting season after season.\nI get incredulous looks from motorcycle trade persons at global expos when I tell them that the Chinese government has banned the use of petrol driven motorcycles in a majority of China\u2019s cities and sprawling urban centres. But it is the case, and the motorcycle industry is suffering as a result.\nCAAM Calls for the cancellation of the Motorcycle Ban due to Motorcycle Output & Sales Recording a 6-Year Low\nThe Chinese motorcycle manufacturers which are supplying half of the world\u2019s motorcycles are experiencing an unprecedented crisis. The output and sales of the Chinese motorcycle industry both fell over 12% in the first half of 2012, hitting a six year low. According to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), the crisis is not caused by consumption substitution, but by management problems.\nAccording to the latest data, the output and sales of the Chinese motorcycle industry remained low in the first half of 2012. Both output and sales registered at less than 2 million units each month. The total motorcycle output and sales in the first half of 2012 were 1.163 million units and 1.174 million units respectively, both down about 12% year-on-year, an enormous deficit.\nMeanwhile, motorcycle exports have suffered. The total number of motorcycles exported in the first half of 2012 was 4.49 million units, down 9% from a year ago. Mr. Li Bin, who is the secretary general of CAAM Motorcycle Chapter, told me that it\u2019s \u201cthe worst time ever for the Chinese motorcycle industry. China is executing the world\u2019s strictest standards for motorcycle production, even stricter than those in Europe. What\u2019s more important is that more than 190 Chinese cities and towns ban the use of motorcycles, and this has greatly affected motorcycle sales in China. China is the only country in the world that bans motorcycle usage in cities.\u201d\nMr. Dong Yang, the secretary general of CAAM, commented \u201cthe motorcycle sales decline is not caused by consumption substitution, but cause by management problems. Motorcycles are not substituted by cars, but by electric bikes and mopeds. The industry difficulties are affecting senior motorcycle manufacturers all over China.\u201d\nThere are now more than 200 million electric bikes and scooters on Chinese roads. As well as avoiding the ban they also require no licence to ride. I asked Beijing resident and electric scooter rider Lui Huang (a local government official) if he was in favour of motorcycles being returned to the streets of Beijing. His answer was in the positive. \u201cAlthough my electric scooter is usable in Beijing I do notice that if I do not stick to the bicycle lanes it tends to be a bit precarious on the road, especially when taxis are going somewhere in a hurry; they would not hesitate to cut you up and on an electric scooter you don\u2019t have the power to pull away from trouble. I can only see the accident figures increasing under the current policy and I would certainly get back on a gas motorcycle given the chance.\u201d\nAccording to Mr. Li Bin, CAAM is coordinating with many local governments with the hope of persuading them to gradually lift the ban on the use of motorcycles to ease the crisis in the industry.\nFernando Reyes a motorcycle importer from Venezuela recently asked me why it was that the domestic down-turn has affected export figures. He didn\u2019t see that there should be a correlation between the separate markets. As I explained to him it is all to do with the supply chain. The biggest producer of motorcycles in China is Haojue. Haojue are little known as a brand on the world market because they concentrate most of their strengths on domestic trade.\nIf their sales in China drop then they will not be purchasing the same amount of raw material that they usually do. If they lower the amount of material and parts that they purchase the price of said material will increase. The material increases will be felt by every motorcycle manufacture in China regardless of their market target, even affecting giants like Loncin who are the biggest exporter of Chinese motorcycles forcing them to raise their prices. Previously, in a world where expensive Japanese models were their only competition, a price hike would be suffered by the customer who basically would not have had much of a choice. Enter India stage right!\nIndia has no such restrictions on urban motorcycle riding (nor does any other country) and so its motorcycle market forces are gaining strength as the supply chain becomes busier (and cheaper) enabling India to enter in to direct competition with China on many markets. At a recent meeting of the Chongqing Motorcycle Council, Chinese motorcycle historian Guo Changjun had the last word, stating \u201cif the Chinese government doesn\u2019t review its policy on motorcycle riding in cities and towns our rank in the world could be behind India within 5 years.\u201d\nStory submitted by David McMullan, Chief Foreign Editor, China Motor Magazine\nPrevious articleMotoGP: Ten Minutes with Ben Spies\nNext articleDerek \u2018Nobby\u2019 Clark Elected into Hall of Fame",

        "raw_content": "October 3, 2011 / unspywriter\nSome people have said they miss my political commentary. Well, you get what you ask for.\nIf you\u2019re a fan of the mainstream media (and I used to be), you\u2019ll be surprised to find out that a group of people (upwards of several thousand) have been \u201coccupying\u201d Wall Street (well, Liberty Park). They are now into their third week. You didn\u2019t know that? Not surprising. The MSM (and, yes, I have been tempted to call it the \u201clamestream\u201d media, but I don\u2019t want the association) have been noticeable in their absence of coverage. Oh, when the arrests started they were quick to point out that the police were handling the \u201cdisruptive protesters.\u201d Only Democracy Now!, Free Speech TV, and Current TV have devoted any time to what is motivating this true grassroots movement, as opposed to the various Tea Parties who have been bankrolled by the Koch Brothers.\nSo, what is motivating the people who call themselves \u201cOccupy Wall Street?\u201d\nFor one thing, the Wall Street Robber Barons came close to tanking the economy by taking advantage of an almost regulation-free financial environment and got bailed out and not one of them has spent a single minute being held accountable for that.\nFor another thing, the top one to two percent of this country have decided that they need to keep their wealth\u2013not spend it on job creation, what an effing myth that is\u2013so they can live higher on the hog, and the middle class, which they disdain and have decimated, and the poor\u2013who got that way through all fault of their own\u2013can wallow in the gutter of American Exceptionalism.\nFor yet another thing\u2026no, I think those two things about cover it.\nThe minute I saw an NYPD white shirt named Anthony Bologna pepper-spray women who were committing the crime of standing on a sidewalk, I wanted to grab my kaffiyeh and head up there. When I saw a twelve year old girl in handcuffs, I wanted to set fire to the barricades and shut the effing place down. When I watched the police trick demonstrators onto the causeway of the Brooklyn Bridge then arrest 700 of them for blocking traffic, I was ready to tear the place down.\nFortunately, with age, I\u2019ve been able to temper those urges. Forty years ago, I marched in some of the greatest demonstrations in the history of this country, and we turned the opinion of the country on a war, and we brought down a lying, corrupt president. Then, we moved on. We got jobs and houses and mortgages, swelled the middle class, and we let others\u2013though not many of them\u2013do the demonstrating thing.\nNow, we find our place in that great middle class has come under attack from people with scads of money who have decided we need to pay for everything\u2013their tax cuts, their wars, their third or fourth house, their new yacht\u2013and we also need to give up our benefits and our rights to collectively bargain because they don\u2019t like those concepts. They want to get rid of Social Security and Medicare because people should pay for their own retirement and health care\u2013that\u2019s what they\u2019d have you believe. The truth is they don\u2019t like letting anyone who really works for a living into the upper class. Only they get to live the high life and how dare we mere peons aspire to emulate them and live comfortably?\nI agree that in some ways we need a revolution, but it has to be a revolution of the ninety-nine percent, not that envisioned by the Tea Baggers, who, in their ignorance, believe that the Koch Brothers aren\u2019t using them for their own political ends. We have lost our compassion in this country. We blame the poor and the dwindling middle class for the woes rampant, unregulated capitalism has created. We hate anyone who is not rich, white, male, Christian, and born here. This is the America the Koch Brothers, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O\u2019Reilly, et. al., have made and want to enshrine.\nSupport Occupy Wall Street by joining them in person or virtually. Wake up and smell the revolution or be crushed by the top one percent\u2019s Humvee.\nKoch Brothers, middle class, Occupy Wall Street, revolution, Tea Baggers, Tea Party\n\u2190 Learning to Be \u201cWrite-Brained\u201d\nThank You, Steve Jobs \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Among the science-fictional paradigms named in the mundane SF crowd\u2019s fatwah are time-travel and parallel universes. David Toomey\u2019s The New Time Travellers: A Journey to the Frontiers of Physics is a superb examination of ideas that are gaining serious scientific attention, including the possibility that time travel and the multiple worlds theory are two sides of the same coin. The kind of stuff, in fact, that helped me put in some solid foundations to the multiverse of Cowboy Angels.\nFor some reason, my local library, in the 1970s, had all of Brautigan's novels. And I read them all. So when I read this, I found the secondhand copy of Trout Fishing In America I bought in Vancouver, and read:\nI thought to myself what a lovely nib trout fishing in America would make with a stroke of cool green trees along the river's shore, wild flowers and dark fins pressed against the paper.\nThe images from Cassini's flyby of Iapetus that I was very much looking forward to closely analysing (trans: ripping off) has been delayed by a galactic cosmic ray hit that tripped a solid state power switch and sent the spacecraft into safe mode. What could be more science-fictional?\nWhenever mainstream or literary fiction dares to trespass on territory that science fiction considers its own, reaction from within the field ranges from the kind of hooting animosity displayed by apemen contesting ownership of a waterhole in the opening scenes of 2001: A Space Odyssey, through serene indifference, to the craven capitulation of The Simpsons' news anchor, Kent Brockman: \u2018I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords . . .\u2019\nPaul Kincaid\u2019s recent column in Bookslut is, unfortunately, a pretty good example of Brockmanism. After discussing use of a medical procedure as a plot device in Graham Swift\u2019s novel Tomorrow, Kincaid, previously the administrator of the Arthur C. Clarke Award, goes on to imply that literary fiction may be doing a better job of portraying real science and real scientists than science fiction. While science was once \u2018one of the things that cut science fiction off from the rest of literature,\u2019 he says, now it\u2019s \u2018ordinary and about something.\u2019 Further, now that \u2018the transcendence, the wonder that were handy terms when talking about big concept sf have been taken seriously and science fiction has become almost an ecstatic experience . . . perhaps it\u2019s a good thing that the mainstream has discovered the scientist -- because science fiction seems to have lost him.\u2019\nThe insect overlords have taken up SF\u2019s most treasured theme! Surrender at once! Round up the usual suspects and set them to work in the underground sugar caves of our new masters!\nWell, it\u2019s certainly true that literary fiction is paying more attention to science these days. And the idea that, as science becomes normalised and incorporated into the tropes of literary fiction, so SF has retreated into a kind of mystic ecstasy, is an interesting one. Unfortunately, it\u2019s completely false. And Kincaid\u2019s attempts to justify it don\u2019t hold water for a second.\nIn discussing literary novels that feature scientists, Kincaid ranges over the past sixty-fifty years (it should be noted that he mistakenly attributes authorship of his earliest example, The Small Back Room (1942), to Nevil Shute; in fact, it was written by Nigel Balchin, and Balchin\u2019s scientist hero was no boffin or administrator, remote from ordinary human experience, but a genuinely tortured soul). Yet after claiming that \u2018we seem to be seeing fewer and fewer scientists in science fiction\u2019, and telling us that SF is disappearing up its own transcendental fundament, Kincaid gives only one supposed example of this trend, M. Rickert\u2019s Map of Dreams (2006). I confess that I haven\u2019t yet read it. But I have Googled it. It\u2019s a fantasy novella. It\u2019s clearly labelled as a fantasy novella, and is published in a small press collection of fantasy stories. Its time-travel may well be achieved through what Kincaid describes as \u2018a mixture of amateurism and mysticism\u2019, but it can\u2019t typify his claim that SF is retreating from realism for the simple reason that it isn\u2019t SF.\nAnd even if Rickert\u2019s novella was SF, it doesn\u2019t take much thought to come up with a hefty list of SF novels from the past decade, much less the past sixty-five years, that have dealt with science and scientists in a serious, realistic, and sympathetic manner. Here are a few, more or less off the top of my head: Stephen Baxter\u2019s Moonseed; Greg Bear\u2019s Vitals; Gregory Benford\u2019s Cosm, Eater, and The Martian Race; Greg Egan\u2019s Teranesia and Schild\u2019s Ladder; Kim Stanley Robinson\u2019s Antarctica, and his climate change trilogy; Bruce Sterling\u2019s Distraction. As I have no shame, I\u2019ll also mention my own The Secret Of Life and White Devils. I\u2019m sure that you can think of many more, but I hope this little list is enough to convince you that SF has neither \u2018lost\u2019 the scientist, nor its interest in rigorous, serious, and thrillingly speculative explorations of the outer reaches of science and technology. Of course, some SF does have a problem with keeping abreast of science\u2019s rapidly advancing cutting edge, but I think I\u2019ll reserve that topic for another time.",

Furthermore, if a > 0, then the parabola opens up and if a < 0, the parabola opens down.\nThe vertex form of the quadratic function is generally expressed as f(x) = a(x - h)^2+ k, with the value of a having the same effect on the graph of the function as it does in the general form; in addition, the values of x = h and k are the x and y-coordinates, respectively, at the vertex. For example, in the function f(x) = 2(x + 2)^2 - 2, the parabola opens up and has a minimum at the vertex (-2, -2).\nConverting the quadratic function to vertex form is an integral part of graphing quadratic functions.\nConverting the quadratic function from general to vertex form is an integral part of graphing quadratic functions, and Section 2 of the Activity Object provides a step-by-step procedure for accomplishing this conversion process.

        "raw_content": "The Ministry of Agriculture recently announced it plans to ban cultivation of green fodder in the Kingdom and replace it with imported animal feed, local media reported, quoting well-informed sources.\nThe move is aimed at rationalizing water consumption and streamlining its use to other agricultural areas due to limited water sources in the country, a source from the ministry told Aleqtesadiah daily.\nHowever, the ministry allowed farmers to change their activity and select other agricultural products, with the majority of them choosing potato plantation as an alternative.\nAccording to the source, who preferred to remain anonymous, the decision to stop issuing licenses to cultivate green fodder came as a preliminary step to completely halting its plantation, which has slowly led to the decline of the number of fodder farmers by 12.6 percent yearly.\nThe economic value of the plantation is low, since its share in the agriculture sector does not exceed 8 percent. Based on the ministry\u2019s latest data, fodder plantation area covered 195,605 hectares which produced over 3,977 tons of animal feed annually.\nDespite the growing prices of imported fodder, it remains the best solution to ensure water security for the Kingdom, the source claimed.\nEarlier, another source at the Ministry of Agriculture said that the ministry was seeking to adopt a national strategy for fodder for the next five years (2015-2020) on how to supply animal feed products to the Kingdom and, at the same time, on how to cope with the Kingdom\u2019s policy to preserve water resources.",

        "raw_content": "Remembering Dr. William \u201cBill\u201d Saville\nDr. William \u201cBill\u201d Saville was born in Alberta Canada and worked as an accountant before entering veterinary school at the University of Saskatchewan\u2019s Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon Canada. He graduated with distinction in 1977 and entered private veterinary practice in Alberta, specializing in equine medicine.\nIn 1993, Bill left private practice and began an equine internal medicine residency program at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Following completion of the residency training program, he began a PhD program in Veterinary Preventive Medicine at Ohio State, and in 1998 successfully defended his dissertation describing the Epidemiology of Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis. After completion of his PhD, Bill accepted a faculty position as an Extension Veterinarian in the Department of Veterinary Preventive Medicine in the area of Veterinary Epidemiology and Public Health where he was achieved tenure and was promoted to professor.\nDr. Saville developed a new Extension teaching program that emphasized prevention of zoonotic infectious disease transmission, including West Nile Virus which, at the time, was just emerging in the U.S. As part of his Extension teaching program, Bill also developed the Applied Field Epidemiology Program, which continues as a forum that brings together representatives from the university and various state and federal agencies. The AFEP group first met in March of 1999, and has held regular monthly meetings for the past 19 years to share updates and discuss topics relevant to animal and public health. What a legacy Dr. Saville leaves behind with this cohesive, collaborative and cooperative group.\nDr. Saville also created the West Nile Virus Working Group and coordinated large satellite teleconferences within Ohio as well as collaborations of public health officials and veterinarians in the early spring of 2001 to prepare the state for the onset of WNV.\nHaving a strong commitment to professional and graduate student teaching, with a focus on clinical epidemiology, Bill advised and mentored multiple DVM, MS, MPH, and PhD students to successful completion of their degree programs. He received the College of Veterinary Medicine\u2019s Award for Creativity in Teaching in 2003. He maintained an active research program investigating the life cycle of Sarcocystis neurona and the natural history of infection in multiple animal species, and had over 50 peer-reviewed scientific publications. In 2005, Bill was awarded the College\u2019s Pfizer Award for Research Excellence. In 2006, he was named interim Chair of the Department of Veterinary Preventive Medicine, and then served as Chair for two terms from 2007 to 2015. He also served as the Director of the college\u2019s Alice Lloyd Finley Memorial Veterinary Research Farm from 2004-2014. Bill was a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine.\nDr. Saville has left an indelible imprint on the Ohio State College of Veterinary Medicine and the veterinary profession through his laudable commitment, loyalty and dedication combined with his contributions to education, research, extension, service and mentorship.\nBill loved playing golf, spending time with his wife and his miniature schnauzer, and he enjoyed local gourmet cuisine and traveling to Arizona every spring.\nVisitation will be on January 24 from 10:00\u201311:00am followed by the Memorial Service at 11:00 am at the Rutherford-Corbin Funeral Home located at 515 High Street, Worthington, OH 43085. Dr. Saville\u2019s obituary is available at http://www.rutherfordfuneralhomes.com/obituaries/William-Saville/#!/Obituary.\nIn lieu of flowers, a memorial gift may be made in Dr. Saville\u2019s memory. Checks can be made payable to The Ohio State University Foundation.

        "raw_content": "Francis Speeches 2016 October\nTO PARTICIPANTS IN THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE\nON PASTORAL WORK FOR VOCATIONS\nSPONSORED BY THE CONGREGATION FOR THE CLERGY\nDear Cardinals, Dear brother Bishops and Priests, Brothers and Sisters,\nI welcome you with joy at the end of your Conference, organized by the Congregation for the Clergy, and I thank Cardinal Beniamino Stella for the kind words he addressed to me on behalf of all of you.\nI confess that I am always a bit afraid to use certain common expressions in our ecclesial language: \u201cvocational pastoral ministry\u201d could bring to mind one of the many areas of the Church\u2019s action, an office of the Curia, or perhaps the development of a project. I am not saying these things aren\u2019t important, but there is much more: vocational pastoral ministry is an encounter with the Lord! When we welcome Christ we experience a decisive meeting, which brings light to our existence, which pulls us out of the angst of our little world and transforms us into disciples in love with our Master.\nIt is no coincidence that you have chosen as the title of your Conference \u201cMiserando atque eligendo\u201d, the words of the Venerable Bede (Hom. 21: CCL 122, 149; Liturgia Horarum, 21 Sept., Officium lectionis, lectio II). You know \u2014 I have said it before \u2014 that I chose this motto recalling my younger years in which I strongly felt the call of the Lord: it did not happen after a conference or because of a nice theory, but because I experienced Christ\u2019s merciful gaze upon me. This is how it happened, I\u2019m telling you the truth. So, it is nice that you have come here, from many parts of the world, to reflect on this theme; but please, it must not end here with a nice conference! Vocational pastoral ministry is learning the style of Jesus, who passes through the places of daily life, stops without being hurried and, by looking at our brothers with mercy, leads them to encounter God the Father.\nThe evangelists often stress a particular aspect of Jesus\u2019 mission: He went out in the streets and began to walk (cf. Lk 9:51), \u201ctravelling through cities and villages\u201d (cf. Lk 9:35) and he encountered the suffering and hopes of the people. He is \u201cGod with us\u201d, who lives among the homes of his children and does not fear mingling with the crowd in our cities, becoming the leaven of newness where the people struggle for a different life. In the case of Matthew\u2019s vocation we find the same detail: first Jesus goes out again to pray, then he sees Levi sitting at the tax office, and lastly, he calls him (cf. Lk 5:27). Let us ponder these three verbs, which indicate the dynamism of all vocational pastoral ministry: go out, see, call.\nFirst of all: Go out. Vocational pastoral ministry needs a Church in motion, able to expand her borders, measuring them not on the narrow-mindedness of human calculations nor the fear of making mistakes, but on the broad measure of the merciful heart of God. There cannot be a fruitful sowing of vocations if we simply remain closed within the \u201cconvenient pastoral criterion of \u2018we have always done it this way\u2019\u201d, without \u201cbeing bold and creative in this task of rethinking the goals, structures, style and method of evangelization in our respective communities\u201d (cf. Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, n. 33). We have to learn to go out from our rigidness that makes us incapable of communicating the joy of the Gospel, out from the standardized formulas that often prove to be anachronistic, out from the preconceived analyses that classify the lives of people into cold categories. Go out from all of this.\nI ask this especially of the pastors of the Church, the Bishops and the Priests: you are the ones principally responsible for Christian and priestly vocations, and this task cannot be relegated to a bureaucratic office. You too have experienced an encounter that changed your life, when another priest \u2014 a parish priest, a confessor, a spiritual director \u2014 helped you experience the beauty of God\u2019s love. Thus, you too: going out, listening to young people \u2014 it takes patience! \u2014 you can help them understand the movements of their heart and guide their steps. It is sad when a priest lives only for himself, enclosing himself within the safe fortress of the rectory, the sacristy or a close group of the \u201ctruly faithful\u201d. On the contrary, we are called to be pastors among the people, able to stimulate a pastoral ministry of encounters and to spend time welcoming and listening to all, especially the youth.\nSecond: See. Go out, see. When he goes into the streets, Jesus stops and meets the gaze of the other, without haste. This is what makes his call attractive and fascinating. Unfortunately, today haste and the speed of the stimuli to which we are subjected often do not leave space for that interior silence in which the Lord\u2019s call echoes. At times it is also possible to run this risk in our communities: pastors and pastoral workers who are hurried, overly preoccupied with things to do, who risk falling into an empty organizational activism, without being able to stop to meet people. The Gospel, however, shows us that vocation starts with a look of mercy that settled upon me. It is that term: \u201cmiserando\u201d, which expresses the embrace of the eyes and of the heart at the same time. This is how Jesus looked at Matthew. Finally, this \u201cpublican\u201d did not feel a look of contempt or judgment upon him, but felt he was looked into with love. Jesus challenged people\u2019s prejudices and labels; he created an open space, in which Matthew was able to re-examine his life and embark on a new path.\nThis is how I like to think of the style of vocational pastoral ministry. And, if I may, at the same time I imagine the gaze of each pastor: attentive, not hurried, able to stop and look deeply, to enter the life of another without ever making him feel threatened or judged. It is a look, that of the pastor, capable of inspiring astonishment through the Gospel, of awakening people from the slumber in which the culture of consumerism and superficiality immerses us, and giving rise to authentic requests for happiness, especially among young people. It is a look of discernment, which accompanies people, without taking over their conscience, and without pretending to control the grace of God. Lastly, it is an attentive and watchful look, and is thus continuously called on to purify itself. And when dealing with priestly vocations and the entrance into Seminary, I pray that you seek to discern the truth, to have a careful and cautious gaze, without being heedless or superficial. I say this in particular to brother Bishops: vigilance and prudence. The Church and the world need mature and well-balanced priests, fearless and generous pastors, capable of closeness, listening and mercy.\nGo out, see, and the third action is to call. This is the typical verb of the Christian vocation. Jesus does not make long speeches, he does not provide a programme to adhere to, he does not proselytize, nor does he offer prepackaged answers. In speaking to Matthew, he merely says: \u201cFollow me!\u201d. In this way, he stirs in Matthew the appeal of discovering a new destination, opening his life towards a \u201cplace\u201d that goes beyond the little desk where he is seated. Jesus\u2019 desire is to put people on a path, to move them from lethal sedentariness, to break the illusion that you can live happily by remaining comfortably seated among your own certainties.\nThis desire to search, which often resides in the youngest, is the treasure that the Lord puts in our hands and that we must care for, cultivate and make grow. Let us look to Jesus, who passed along the shores of existence, collecting the desire of those who seek, the disappointment of a night of fishing that didn\u2019t go well, the parched thirst of a woman who goes to the well to get water, or the strong need to change one\u2019s life. Thus, we too, instead of reducing faith to a book of recipes or a set of rules to follow, we can help young people ask themselves the right questions, to set out on the path and discover the joy of the Gospel.\nI am well aware that your task is not easy, and that at times, despite a generous commitment, the results can be limited and we risk frustration and discouragement. But if we do not close ourselves off in complaints and we continue to \u201cgo out\u201d to proclaim the Gospel, the Lord will stay by our side and give us the courage to cast our nets even when we are tired and disappointed that we have not caught any fish.\nTo Bishops and Priests, above all, I would like to say: persevere in being neighbours, in closeness \u2014 that synkatabasis of the Father and the Son with us; persevere in going out, in sowing the Word, with a gaze of mercy. Your vocational pastoral ministry is entrusted to your pastoral work, your discernment and your prayer. Take care to promote it, adopting the methods possible, exercising the art of discernment and giving impetus, through evangelization, to the theme of priestly vocations and the consecrated life. Do not be afraid to proclaim the Gospel, to meet, to guide the life of young people. Do not be timid in suggesting the priestly life to them, showing them above all with your joyful witness, that it is beautiful to follow the Lord and give him your life forever. And, as the basis for this work, always remember to place your trust in God, imploring him for new workers for his harvest and supporting prayer initiatives in support of vocations.\nI trust that these days \u2014 when much richness has circulated, thanks also to the speakers who have participated \u2014 can contribute to remembering that vocational pastoral ministry is an essential task in the Church, and involves the ministry of pastors and of lay people. It is an urgent mission that the Lord asks us to carry out with generosity. I assure you of my prayers; and you, please, do not forget to pray for me. Thank you.",

        "title": "Why We Need More Visibility and Less Complexity in the Cloud | Wasabi",
        "raw_content": "Why We Need More Visibility and Less Complexity in the Cloud\nCloud adoption has moved from the experimentation phase to full-blown migration, as more enterprises realize the agility, flexibility, and cost benefits associated with a cloud-first policy. Hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions are replacing everything from client-server email and Microsoft Office Suites to customer relationship management and human resources tools. DevOps and other IT modernization efforts continue to push new, modular applications and workloads to public clouds. And any employee with a credit card is always just a few keystrokes away from subscribing to the latest online conferencing, collaboration, or file-sharing platform.\nMostly Cloudy with Zero Visibility\nWhen IT is left out of these cloud purchase decisions, enterprises begin to suffer from data sprawl. Even with awareness, it becomes increasingly more difficult to keep track of and control access to corporate data when it is stored across vast and growing multiple public clouds (SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS), private clouds, and on-premises data centers.\nWhile reputable cloud service providers are inherently secure, this lack of visibility or a cohesive view of all enterprise data makes it impossible for IT to uniformly apply corporate security policy, or to ensure industry or government-mandated data protection and privacy compliance.\nUnified View and Control of All On-Premises and Cloud Storage\nWe recently partnered with Storage Made Easy\u2122. Their Enterprise File Fabric acts as a central control point for data access, sharing, and governance across all corporate data, whether stored on premises, within public and private clouds, or in hosted third-party applications such as SharePoint Online or Salesforce. The solution breaks down data silos, making it easier for end users to search and access data from any repository from any device. Shared folders, file sharing, synchronization, and collaboration are available through a full suite of desktop, mobile and web applications. Additionally, corporate IT gains the visibility and control necessary to apply data protection and privacy policies, and to ensure compliance with HIPAA, FINRA, MiFID, CJIS, GDPR and other government regulations\nBetter with Wasabi\nWhat I really like about the Storage Made Easy solution is the way in which it empowers IT operations in their new role as cloud service brokers. By enabling a holistic view of their data landscape, administrators can monitor and audit how data is stored, transferred, and accessed across the enterprise, and make better cloud service recommendations based on real-world usage.\nOne recommended option made available through our recent integration with Storage Made Easy is the ability to eliminate complex cloud storage tiers and costly object lifecycle management, while vastly improving user access and retrieval speeds to their stored data. At 1/5th the cost of Amazon S3 and 6x the performance, Wasabi hot storage collapses traditional tiering methods to simplify storage with a one-size-fits-all universal cloud storage utility.\nStorage Made Easy customers that integrate Wasabi into their enterprise data ecosystem will no longer be required to manage classes of data differently based on criticality and frequency of retrieval, creating a more predictable storage solution in terms of price, performance and security.",

        "raw_content": "\"Don't complain, don't explain, just do something\"\nTanya with \"Waiting for him\"\nIt is a nondescript salon tucked away in a strip mall on the long stretch of El Camino Real. You may have even passed it on your way to the various Indian restaurants that litter the Mountain View/Sunnyvale corridor. Inside, stations are set up for manicures, pedicures and haircuts, just your everyday beauty parlor offerings.\nBut just a glance at the walls will tell you that this is no ordinary shop. One wall has a cubist rendering of a reclining woman. On another, the liquid eyes of a young couple stare out from a pair of paintings. An easel on the corner has a painting embellished in gold flakes.\nThis is the Spoil-Me Salon, home to artist Tanya Momi whose nimble fingers are equally adept at threading eyebrows and wielding the paintbrush. Hers is a remarkable story. Born to an intellectual family in Chandigarh, the shy Tanya found expression in art, showing an early talent. She did her studies in the field and participated in several competitions, winning prizes and acclaim. She became a docent at the Chandigarh art gallery, happy to spend her leisure surrounded by the works of masters.\nHer family found her a match in the US and that\u2019s when the long nightmare began. Rigid and orthodox, her in-laws refused to allow her to pursue her passion, treating her like an \u201ceducated maid\u201d, in Tanya\u2019s own words. She took on the role of a dutiful wife and mother, sublimating her passion and desires for nearly 2 dozen years. She was not allowed to make friends, to drive or to step out of the house to shop. After several years a kind neighbor suggested to her that she might want to take a short course and become a manicurist. When the in-laws were convinced that she could bring in a decent income, they consented. Tanya jumped at the opportunity. \u201cPainting is painting,\u201d she reasoned. \u201cSo what if it is on nails instead of canvases.\u201d Soon she had a huge list of clients among whom she made many dear friends.\nWhen the evidence of abuse at home became evident, her friends gave her the courage to break out of her prison. With the help and support of friends and parents, Tanya finally separated from her abusive relationship and started out on her own. Clients donated easels and paints and encouraged her to go back to her first love, painting.\n\"Circle of Trust\"\nThe Spoil-Me Salon is in the process of renovation, but I took a tour of Tanya\u2019s works, currently stored in an anteroom at the salon. The repressed passion of 2 decades bursts out of every painting. Vivid and earthy, each painting has a message. After her divorce, Tanya was shunned by the women of her own community and propositioned by the men and the pain of those encounters is captured on many canvases. A beautiful one called \u201cCircle of trust\u201d is a poignant reminder of the support that only women can give other women. An extra long canvas called \u201cEverytown and Country Therapy Sessions\u201d questions why therapy should not be more easily available for the many wounded souls our modern lifestyle creates. Many paintings display cherished passages from the Guru Granth Sahib, whose inclusive messages are a balm to Tanya\u2019s heart.\nTanya at work\nIt\u2019s been only 2 years since Tanya resumed painting, but she has over 200 paintings to show for it. She works like a woman possessed, sometimes painting up to 8 hours a day till her fingers cramp. She experiments with many styles from cubism to impressionism to portraits on commission. Her paintings have been featured in many international tours. One set of paintings is currently traveling with Amnesty International\u2019s Stop Violence Against Women Art Exhibit.\nTanya Momi rebuilt her life after a traumatic marriage and divorce and in her own quiet way she helps other women do the same. \u201cWomen come into my life through the salon,\u201d she says. \u201cThey are like the missing puzzle pieces of my life.\u201d Through her work in the salon and her paintings she reaches out to offer comforting messages of hope and renewal. This Muy Thai kickboxing enthusiast has a full plate \u2013 working full time, painting full time and enjoying every moment of her busy life. \u201cDon\u2019t complain,don\u2019t explain, just do something,\u201d says the irrepressible Tanya Momi.\nMore information on Tanya can be found at www.tanyamomi.com. She would love to be contacted at tanya.momi@yahoo.com. And do step in Spoil-Me Salon if you feel the need for a little pampering.\nTanya will also feature in a panel discussion in a segment on \u201cFollowing Your Bliss\u201d organized by Narika in a South Asian Women\u2019s Conference on March 21st, 2009.\nThis entry was posted in Personality on February 17, 2009 by vpdot.\nInterview with Dya Singh\nHe is a quiet phenomenon. Dya Singh may not be part of the spiritual mainstream yet, but the jovial singer attracts capacity crowds as he makes his way around the world, singing shabads, kirtans, bhajans and semi-classical film songs with the underlying purpose of spreading truth and goodness. The message is simple, the delivery full of joy and music.\nI attended a special performance by Dya Singh and his multi-ethnic troupe at the Sunnyvale Temple last week. Accompanying him were his daughter Parvyn and three of his finest musicians \u2013 Dheeraj Shrestha, Andrew Clermont and Josh Bennett. Even with such a small entourage, through sheer strength of talent and creativity, the evening was rich with both musical substance and spiritual feeling. The songs ranged from a multi-religious chant( the audience provided the choruses of \u201cHare Ram\u201d and \u201cAllahu Akbar\u201d) and a fiery, improvised version of Man Tarpat Hari Darshan Ko Aaj that had us clapping several times through the performance. The solo riffs by the talented accompanists were breath-taking as they switched between the didgeridoo and the mandolin, dilruba and guitar. Parvyn\u2019s pure voice provided a haunting harmony to the powerful vocals of Dya Singh.\nI chatted with the singer a few minutes before the show began to find out a little more about what makes this energizing personality tick.

Om is a mantra, a hymn( shloka) or phrase that is supposed to raise consciousness when recited over and over. Mantras have power and meaning independent of the understanding of the person chanting them if chanted the right way, so say the scriptures. Nina Patel has experienced this for herself.\nThis entry was posted in Parent Talk, Personality on July 22, 2008 by vpdot.\nWhat\u2019s your father\u2019s name, and what blood type are you?\nCollege in India is something that would never enter the mind of an Indian American. Because really, that\u2019s why our parents moved to the States, (besides the whole \u2018chasing the American dream\u2019, that is). My parents moved to California for that, well that and the great weather in Sunny San Diego. The thought of college in India sounded twisted to me; it was like some sort of joke that just wasn\u2019t funny at all. When my Dad drove me out to the Integrated Institute of Learning Management in Delhi I remember just thinking about the my situation in total disillusionment and disbelief. I kept telling myself that it wasn\u2019t happening, that I was going to go back to the States and finish my degree, that my parents were just tricking me trying to see how hard they could push me into saying that I wanted to stay.

        "raw_content": "TOAV has lost its focus (October 14, 2015)\nThere have been a lot of radio and newspaper advertisements by the Town of Apple Valley regarding its plan to acquire Apple Valley Ranchos Water Company and in response by Ranchos stating the town is ill advised to pursue eminent domain.\nTruthfully, much of the information is contradicting and it\u2019s been a challenge to sort through it and get to the bottom of the issue. So I set aside their advertisements and decided to rely on what I\u2019ve seen. I\u2019ve seen Ranchos constantly doing work on their pipeline (repairs or improvements) all around town and that they\u2019re now drilling a new well. I received information from them in the mail regarding the drought and the drought restrictions. In short, I\u2019ve seen them focus on water issues.\nDuring the same time, I\u2019ve received campaign type information from the town. I\u2019ve seen the town build an oversized animal shelter, when those services already existed and were provided by a nonprofit organization. I\u2019ve seen the town purchase a money-losing golf course and pay a premium for it. So we now have town employees that we pay to run an animal shelter that competes with an existing nonprofit one. And we have a golf course that continues to report hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses each year.\nI think the Town Council has seriously lost track of its purpose. We want to have a Better Way of Life by having a community with low crime, good schools and good roads. We don\u2019t want a town that picks a fight with a well-run water utility just for the sake of government control and bigger government. Based on what I\u2019ve seen, I say leave Ranchos to the water business and do a better job with the golf course, roads, storm drains, and crime.\n\u2014 Joseph Danes, Apple Valley",

        "raw_content": "Facts, figures and milestones\nAccreditation for officials\nIn December 2011, the Home Secretary announced the creation of a professional body for the police service. The College of Policing will be established by the end of 2012.\nWhy set up a police professional body?\nThe police service is currently facing a series of challenges, ranging from the transformational change that forces need to make to deliver savings and reduce crime, to the increasing complexity of the threats to national security, public safety and public order.\nThese challenges cannot be met by relying on the existing structures at a national level in policing. The College of Policing will have a powerful mandate to enable the service to implement the standards it sets for training, development, skills and qualifications.\nThe body will spearhead the drive to cut unnecessary bureaucracy and form-filling processes and it will ensure police officers and police staff have the right skills to make the right decisions. Police officers and police staff, as members of a profession, should use sound judgement and experience to resolve a situation without fearing the consequences.\nIt is expected that the College of Policing will operate independently of government with a company established in December with the intention of replacing it with a statutory body at a later stage. This arrangement will allow many of the necessary functions of the NPIA to be continued until the statutory body is created.\nFor the police service\nRepresentatives from the police service, including the Association of Chief Police Officers and the Police Superintendents' Association of England and Wales are working with the Home Office to create the body. It is essential that the body represents the desires and aspirations of the police service. To reflect this, the chief executive of the College of Policing will be an experienced senior police officer.\nThe college will raise the professional status of police officers and police staff, allowing them to gain greater recognition and reward for accredited levels of expertise and allowing them to contribute to the development of policy in the various areas of specialism.\nA board, chaired by someone independent of policing, will oversee the work of the College of Policing and will comprise police and non-police representatives. Democratically elected police and crime commissioners will be represented on the board and with non-police representatives will ensure the College of Policing serves the public interest.\nCollege of Policing navigation\nHome Secretary outlines plans for new police professional body\nCollege of Policing: an introduction\nPolice professional body - WMS\nThe future of the National Policing Improvement Agency - WMS\nUpdate on the transition of the NPIA - WMS\nGovernment response to HASC new policing landscape report",

        "raw_content": "What is a handbell choir?\nA handbell choir is a group of musicians who ring handbells. Wesley Church has five octaves of Schulmerich handbells (a total of 61 bells). Depending on the size of the choir and the type of music being played, each player is assigned two or more notes.\nEach player\u2019s job is to watch for those notes when they occur in the music and play the bell at the right time. Wesley Church also uses five octaves of Malmark Choir Chimes, which are played in a way similar to bells but produce a different type of sound.\nOur adult handbell choir, the Celebration Ringers, rehearses on Wednesday, 6:15-7:45 p.m. in the Music Room. They ring once a month in the 11:00 a.m. Classic Worship Service.\nIf you have experience ringing handbells and would like to join the group then by all means come to a rehearsal.\nConnect with Frank.\nKlangChor\nKlangChor is a beginner\u2019s bell choir for youth and adults. No music experience is necessary and all are welcome to join. We will show you how to ring bells and read music. Rehearsals are on Sunday from 8:30-9:00 a.m. in the Music Room. Connect with Frank.\nGlockenChor\nOur GlockenChor is a beginner\u2019s chime choir for children in Second through Sixth Grade. We explore all the elements of a ringing choir in a simplistic and fun manner. There is no need to have a music background before participating in this group. It meets Sunday mornings from September through April in the Music Room situated next to the Atrium. The chime choir provides an opportunity for the Wesley Church children to take an active role in our worship services on a regular basis.\nThe children perform approximately once each month. Connect with Heather.\nHow are handbell choirs used in worship?\nWesley\u2019s handbell choirs usually play standalone pieces, but occasionally they accompany the choir or support hymn singing with the congregation. They add a festive nature to worship both visually and aurally. They create atmosphere for worship \u2013 celebratory, joyful, somber, introspective, and everything in between. Handbells play many styles of music, including classical, gospel, contemporary, and spirituals.\nHow do I join one of the choirs?\nIf you or your children are interested in joining, please contact the director of the group that\ninterests you, or ask for us at church. You can also contact Frank Arbushites or Heather Hunter .\nNew members and substitutes are welcome!\nWesley Church\u2019s Celebration Ringers under the direction of Frank Arbushites",

        "title": "WHY I LOVE MOVIES.-The Bad Batch - 2017",
        "raw_content": "Jun 21 The Bad Batch - 2017\nThe Bad Batch was written and directed by Ana Lily Amirpour, coming of her breakout critic hit A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. The story is centered around a girl\u2019s journey in a dystopian future set in a cannibalistic community. While this movie is more accessible to the public, it being in English and set in a dystopian Texas wasteland, I still couldn\u2019t fully connect with the world presented. On paper, the cast is solid, having Jason Momoa, Keanu Reeves, Diego Luna, Jim Carrey, Giovanni Ribisi and newcomer Suki Waterhouse, but they aren\u2019t used to their full potential.\nI don\u2019t want to be completely negative on this movie, because one of the main reasons I started this site was to show my love for this art form. So, let\u2019s create a balance in this review for my own moral sake. The first half will be the positive I found in this movie and the second half will be the negatives.\nLyle Vincent was the cinematographer for this movie, and he earned every single cent he got. For all the faults in the story, I always found an image or a moment in where I was mesmerized by what I was watching. He also worked with Amirpour in her other feature and they have clearly created a good working relationship where he can put to screen what she has in her head. One of my favorite visual moments comes from our protagonist tripping on acid and the sky above her is changing and her hair is flowing in the wind. That image felt unique and familiar at the same time.\nAna Lily Amirpour truly impresses me because of her unique voice. Both of her films can\u2019t be called 100% original, since they pull from many of the films that came before it, but they still feel original. Her story lines aren\u2019t easily explained, and you almost must say, \u201cYou just need to see it to understand\u201d. I will never fully critique someone for trying to go outside of what the Hollywood machine is producing nowadays and I hope she continues to craft her voice and to a point where every single element works.\nThe Bad Batch suffers a lot from an incoherent story line and unclear character motivations. I have watched and loved movies that have incoherent storylines in the past. But I just felt that I was constantly pulled out of the movie questioning why would this happen at all in the rules of the world of the movie. We are introduced to our main character and we see a certain set of events that allow the audience to connect and root for her. Once the movie progresses, however, she betrays her initial motivation of \u201crevenge\u201d and chooses a different path that I felt was completely unearned and unjustified.\nThey wasted their cast. Like I said in the opening paragraph, on paper they have a solid cast, but they don\u2019t really do anything worth their name. Diego Luna screen time is probably around 5 minutes and he doesn\u2019t say a word. Giovanni Ribisi and Jim Carrey had potential as characters that pushed the story forward but ultimately, they are just portrayed as \u201cweird\u201d characters. Lastly Keanu Reeves felt so out of place in this movie. At first, I thought he was doing a Elvis impression but it really wasn\u2019t the case. His lines are supposed to motivate our character, but they never landed and they could\u2019ve been delivered better with a different type of actor.\nJason Momoa, a Hawaiian born movie star, was casted to play Miami Man. He is of Cuban descent in this movie and it almost ruined the entire experience for me. Momoa is a fine enough actor; I have never been blown away by him but at the same time I have never said he was the problem in the movie. But if there is something I truly hate it\u2019s an actor that doesn\u2019t know how to speak Spanish being cast as a character that his main language is Spanish. His \u201cCuban Accent\u201d came and went and even during his best moments it never felt 100% accurate. I\u2019m not trying to be mean, but during his first line of dialogue I thought he was speaking in a new dystopian language but as the movie progressed I quickly realize he was doing an accent. My ears hurt every time he tried to speak in Spanish. It\u2019s not his fault, the casting director should\u2019ve looked for a Spanish speaking Momoa-type but they decided to put Momoa in that position and he, well\u2026 did his best.\nThe Bad Batch was a great experiment that I ultimately respect for the effort, but it just wasn\u2019t a good movie. I enjoyed newcomer Suki and I continue to look forward to director Amirpour\u2019s next project despite her two first projects being a little underwhelming. Despite all the negatives, I\u2019m still able to take away positives and enjoyable experiences and that's why I love movies.\nThe Bad Batch had a release date of June 23rd. Rent it. It\u2019s not as bad as the title suggests.\nJun 22 Sin City - 2005\nJun 20 Laura - 1944",

The syntactic rules for nouns differ from language to language. In English, nouns are those words which can occur with articles and attributive\u2005adjectives and can function as the head of a noun\u2005phrase.\n\u272a Basic English Grammar - Noun, Verb, Adjective, Adverb\n\u272a Schoolhouse Rock Nouns\n\u272a All About Nouns: English Grammar for Kids - FreeSchool\n\u272a NOUNS - Basic English Grammar - What is a NOUN? - Types of Nouns - Examples of Nouns - Common/Proper\n\u272a Noun Song from Grammaropolis - \"Noun Town\"\n3\u2005Gender\n4\u2005Classification\n4.1\u2005Proper\u2005nouns\u2005and\u2005common\u2005nouns\n4.2\u2005Countable\u2005and\u2005uncountable\u2005nouns\n4.3\u2005Collective\u2005nouns\n4.4\u2005Concrete\u2005nouns\u2005and\u2005abstract\u2005nouns\n4.5\u2005Alienable\u2005vs.\u2005inalienable\u2005nouns\n4.5.1\u2005Pingelapese\n5\u2005Noun\u2005phrases\n6\u2005Pronouns\n7\u2005Nominalization\nSee also History\u2005of\u2005parts\u2005of\u2005speech\nWord\u2005classes (parts of speech) were described by Sanskrit grammarians from at least the 5th century BC. In Y\u0101ska's Nirukta, the noun (n\u0101ma) is one of the four main categories of words defined.[4]\nThe Ancient\u2005Greek equivalent was \u00f3noma (\u1f44\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1), referred to by Plato in the Cratylus\u2005dialog, and later listed as one of the eight parts of speech in The\u2005Art\u2005of\u2005Grammar, attributed to Dionysius\u2005Thrax (2nd century BC). The term used in Latin\u2005grammar was n\u014dmen. All of these terms for \"noun\" were also words meaning \"name\".[5] The English word noun is derived from the Latin term, through the Anglo-Norman noun.\nThe word classes were defined partly by the grammatical forms that they take. In Sanskrit, Greek and Latin, for example, nouns are categorized by gender and inflected for case and number. Because adjectives share these three grammatical\u2005categories, adjectives are placed in the same class as nouns.\nSimilarly, the Latin n\u014dmen includes both nouns (substantives) and adjectives, as originally did the English word noun, the two types being distinguished as nouns substantive and nouns adjective (or substantive nouns and adjective nouns, or short substantives and adjectives). (The word nominal is now sometimes used to denote a class that includes both nouns and adjectives.)\nMany European languages use a cognate of the word substantive as the basic term for noun (for example, Spanish sustantivo, \"noun\"). Nouns in the dictionaries of such languages are demarked by the abbreviation s. or sb. instead of n., which may be used for proper nouns or neuter nouns instead. In English, some modern authors use the word substantive to refer to a class that includes both nouns (single words) and noun\u2005phrases (multiword units, also called noun equivalents).[6] It can also be used as a counterpart to attributive when distinguishing between a noun being used as the head (main word) of a noun phrase and a noun being used as a noun\u2005adjunct. For example, the noun knee can be said to be used substantively in my knee hurts, but attributively in the patient needed knee replacement.\nNouns have sometimes been defined in terms of the grammatical categories to which they are subject (classed by gender, inflected for case and number). Such definitions tend to be language-specific, since nouns do not have the same categories in all languages.\nNouns are frequently defined, particularly in informal contexts, in terms of their semantic properties (their meanings). Nouns are described as words that refer to a person, place, thing, event, substance, quality, quantity, etc. However this type of definition has been criticized by contemporary linguists as being uninformative.[7]\nThere have been offered several examples of English-language nouns which do not have any reference: drought, enjoyment, finesse, behalf (as found in on behalf of), dint (in dint of), and sake (for the sake of).[8][9][10] Moreover, there may be a relationship similar to reference in the case of other parts of speech: the verbs to rain or to mother; many adjectives, like red; and there is little difference between the adverb gleefully and the noun-based phrase with glee.[note\u20052]\nThere are placeholder names, such as the legal\u2005fiction reasonable\u2005person (whose existence is not in question), an experimental artifact, or personifications such as gremlin.\nLinguists often prefer to define nouns (and other lexical categories) in terms of their formal properties. These include morphological information, such as what prefixes or suffixes they take, and also their syntax \u2013 how they combine with other words and expressions of particular types. Such definitions may nonetheless still be language-specific, since syntax as well as morphology varies between languages. For example, in English it might be noted that nouns are words that can co-occur with definite articles (as stated at the start of this article), but this would not apply in Russian, which has no definite articles.\nThere have been several attempts, sometimes controversial, to produce a stricter definition of nouns on a semantic basis. Some of these are referenced in the \u00a7 Further\u2005reading section below.\nMain article: Grammatical\u2005gender\nIn some languages, genders are assigned to nouns, such as masculine, feminine and neuter. The gender of a noun (as well as its number and case, where applicable) will often entail agreement in words that modify or are related to it. For example, in French, the singular form of the definite article is le with masculine nouns and la with feminines; adjectives and certain verb forms also change (with the addition of -e with feminines). Grammatical gender often correlates with the form of the noun and the inflection pattern it follows; for example, in both Italian and Russian most nouns ending -a are feminine. Gender can also correlate with the sex of the noun's referent, particularly in the case of nouns denoting people (and sometimes animals). Nouns arguably do not have gender in Modern English, although many of them denote people or animals of a specific sex (or social gender), and pronouns that refer to nouns must take the appropriate gender for that noun. (The girl lost her spectacles.)\nMain article: Proper\u2005noun\nA proper noun or proper name is a noun representing unique entities (such as India, Pegasus, Jupiter, \"Kaumarya saurav\", Confucius, or Pequod), as distinguished from common nouns which describe a class of entities (such as country, animal, planet, person or ship).[11]\nMain articles: Count\u2005noun and Mass\u2005noun\nCount nouns or countable nouns are common nouns that can take a plural, can combine with numerals or counting quantifiers (e.g., one, two, several, every, most), and can take an indefinite article such as a or an (in languages which have such articles). Examples of count nouns are chair, nose, and occasion.\nMass nouns or uncountable (or non-count) nouns differ from count nouns in precisely that respect: they cannot take plurals or combine with number words or the above type of quantifiers. For example, it is not possible to refer to a furniture or three furnitures. This is true even though the pieces of furniture comprising furniture could be counted. Thus the distinction between mass and count nouns should not be made in terms of what sorts of things the nouns refer to, but rather in terms of how the nouns present these entities.[12][13]\nMany nouns have both countable and uncountable uses; for example, soda is countable in \"give me three sodas\", but uncountable in \"he likes soda\".\nMain article: Collective\u2005noun\nCollective nouns are nouns that \u2013 even when they are inflected for the singular \u2013 refer to groups consisting of more than one individual or entity. Examples include committee, government, and police. In English these nouns may be followed by a singular or a plural verb and referred to by a singular or plural pronoun, the singular being generally preferred when referring to the body as a unit and the plural often being preferred, especially in British English, when emphasizing the individual members.[14] Examples of acceptable and unacceptable use given by Gowers in Plain Words include:[14]\n\"A committee was appointed to consider this subject.\" (singular)\n\"The committee were unable to agree.\" (plural)\n* \"The committee were of one mind when I sat on them.\" (unacceptable use of plural)\nConcrete nouns and abstract nouns\nFurther information: Physical\u2005body and Abstract\u2005object\nConcrete nouns refer to physical\u2005entities that can, in principle at least (i.e. different schools of philosophy and sciences may question the assumption, but, for the most part, people agree to the existence of something. E.g. a rock, a tree, universe), be observed by at least one of the senses (for instance, chair, apple, Janet or atom). Abstract nouns, on the other hand, refer to abstract\u2005objects; that is, ideas or concepts (such as justice or hatred). While this distinction is sometimes exclusive, some nouns have multiple senses, including both concrete and abstract ones: consider, for example, the noun art, which usually refers to a concept (e.g., Art is an important element of human culture.) but which can refer to a specific artwork in certain contexts (e.g., I put my daughter's art up on the fridge.)\nSome abstract nouns developed etymologically by figurative extension from literal roots. These include drawback, fraction, holdout and uptake. Similarly, some nouns have both abstract and concrete senses, with the latter having developed by figurative extension from the former. These include view, filter, structure and key.\nIn English, many abstract nouns are formed by adding a suffix (-ness, -ity, -ion) to adjectives or verbs. Examples are happiness (from the adjective happy), circulation (from the verb circulate) and serenity (from the adjective serene).\nAlienable vs. inalienable nouns\nSome languages refer to nouns differently, depending on how ownership is being given for the given noun. This can be broken into two categories: alienable and inalienable. An alienable noun is something that does not belong to a person indefinitely. Inalienable nouns, on the other hand, refer to something that is possessed definitely. Examples of alienable nouns would be a tree or a shirt or roads. Examples of inalienable nouns would be a father or shadow or hair.\nPingelapese\nThe Pingelapese\u2005language uses a distinction between nouns.[15] There are several classifier forms: The first is for objects which tend to be pretty large in size and not being a favorite possession (tree or shirt), and the second is for small, controllable, favorite objects like dogs, books or spears. A third form would be set aside for food objects like bananas, oranges or fish. Drinks like water or coconut liquor also have classifier forms. A fifth classifier would be designated for things that are to be chewed but not fully consumed. The only example of this was from the book Papers in Kosraean and Ponapeic: the fruit, pandanus, is chewed for the sweet/bitter juice, but what remains after consuming the juice discarded. The 6th classifier forms are set aside for ways of transportation (bikes, canoes, and boats). The last two classifiers are designated for land and houses.\nMain article: Noun\u2005phrase\nA noun phrase is a phrase based on a noun, pronoun, or other noun-like word (nominal) optionally accompanied by modifiers such as determiners and adjectives. A noun phrase functions within a clause or sentence in a role such as that of subject, object, or complement of a verb or preposition. For example, in the sentence \"The black cat sat on a dear friend of mine\", the noun phrase the black cat serves as the subject, and the noun phrase a dear friend of mine serves as the complement of the preposition on.\nMain article: Pronoun\nNouns and noun phrases can typically be replaced by pronouns, such as he, it, which, and those, in order to avoid repetition or explicit identification, or for other reasons. For example, in the sentence Gareth thought that he was weird, the word he is a pronoun standing in place of the person's name. The word one can replace parts of noun phrases, and it sometimes stands in for a noun. An example is given below:\nJohn's car is newer than the one that Bill has.\nBut one can also stand in for larger parts of a noun phrase. For example, in the following example, one can stand in for new car.\nThis new car is cheaper than that one.\nMain article: Nominalization\nNominalization is a process whereby a word that belongs to another part of speech comes to be used as a noun. In French and Spanish, for example, adjectives frequently act as nouns referring to people who have the characteristics denoted by the adjective. This sometimes happens in English as well, as in the following examples:\nThis legislation will have the most impact on the poor.\nThe race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong.\nThe Socialist International is a worldwide association of political parties.\nPhi\u2005features\n^ Example nouns for:\nLiving\u2005creatures (including people, alive, dead or imaginary): mushrooms, dog, Afro-Caribbeans, rosebush, Nelson\u2005Mandela, bacteria, Klingons, etc.\nPhysical\u2005objects: hammer, pencils, Earth, guitar, atom, stones, boots, shadow, etc.\nPlaces: closet, temple, river, Antarctica, houses, Grand\u2005Canyon, Utopia, etc.\nActions: swimming, exercise, diffusion, explosions, flight, electrification, embezzlement, etc.\nQualities: color, length, deafness, weight, roundness, symmetry, warp\u2005speed, etc.\nMental or physical\u2005states of existence: jealousy, sleep, heat, joy, stomachache, confusion, mind\u2005meld, etc.\nIdeas or abstract entities: musicianship, cooperativeness, perfection, The\u2005New\u2005York\u2005Times, mathematics, impossibility, etc.\n^ Nouns occur in idioms with no meaning outside the idiom: rock and roll does not describe two different things named by rock and by roll; someone who falls for something lock, stock and barrel does not fall for something lock, for stock, and for barrel; a trick using smoke and mirrors does not separate into the effect of smoke and each mirror.

        "raw_content": "December 18, 2018 By Mike Veseth in emerging wine regions, globalization, wine, wine markets\t5 Comments\nSue and I did our best to learn all we could about the Romanian wine industry during our visit to participate in the International Wine Competition Bucharest in Iasi, but inevitably we only scratched the surface. Romania is a diverse country with a complicated wine industry. Impossible to understand with confidence on the basis of just a few days.\nA Wine Region in Motion\nSo we are operating on first impressions, not detailed analysis, but first impressions can be important. One strong impression was of dynamism. It was hard to resist the enthusiasm of the people we met and their sense that Romanian wine is on the move, reaching new and higher levels.\nIndications of this ambition were all around us, but perhaps most clearly visible when the competition crew took a break to visit the Cotnari region. We got a late start getting out of Iasi because the morning\u2019s judging session had gone into over-time (one of the juror groups \u2014 mine! \u2014 moved much slower than the rest). So the light was fading by the time our coach rolled into Cotnari.\nS.C. Cotnari S.A. is one of Romania\u2019s largest wineries and we saw its name everywhere during our visit \u2014 on the wines, of course, on banners at lunch, and as sponsor of a wine, food, and music festival in the square in front of our hotel. The big sign above the winery shined like a beacon as night fell.\nCotnari was founded in 1948, during the collective era of Romanian wine, rebuilt in 1968, and then taken private in a management buyout in 2000. Cotnari dominates the region it is named for, with 1360 heactares of vines. Several ranges of wines, focusing on native grape varieties, are produced starting with box wines and ending with library selections of Grasa de Cotnari wines called Vinoteque.\nThe winery was impressive for the breadth of production as well as the sheer scale (our hosts were proud of the rows of big stainless steel tanks we saw). The visitor facilities, which seem to cater to groups, caught our attention. The restaurant was buzzing when we arrived, with live traditional music and generous servings of local dishes (sarmale \u2014 yum!) to pair with the Cotnari wine.\nThe people at Cotnari clearly think big, which is important. But we saw more evidence of dynamism before we entered the restaurant door. Our first stop was actually another winery with a similar name: Casa de Vinuri Cotnari . The Cotnari House of Wine is much younger than its big brother \u2014 founded just a few years ago in 2011 \u2014 but represents the next generation of wine here. I say this not just because it focuses exclusively on quality native-variety wines, but also because it is a project of the next generation of the family that runs Cotnari \u2014 founded and developed with their parents\u2019 support.\nCasa de Vinuri Cotnari is a work in progress, with modern facilities build over and around an old cellar where the barrels are still stored. Walking through the construction site, the ranks of huge stainless steel tanks glimmered in the moonlight. There is scale here, too, with 350 hectares of vines, but clear focus on upscale market opportunities.\nSources of Dynamism\nSue and I were fortunate to learn about several other wineries \u2014 Domenile Averesti, Licorna Winehouse, LacertA Winery, Davino, and the exciting Mierla Alba project \u2014 that are leaders in various ways of the dynamic movement we sensed. Based on the wines we tasted and the people we met, it is hard to resist the feeling that Romanian wine is on the move.\nWhat accounts for the dynamism? No single factor, of course. Clearly there is a sense that there are opportunities to be seized among those inside the wine bubble. But there are also important investments coming from ambitious individuals and firms outside the domestic wine scene and outside of Romania, too.\nRomanians and Italians have a lot in common (you can hear it in the language) and that extends to wine. Vitis Metamorfosis, a leading Dealu Mare region premium wine producer, is an Antinori family wine project.\nThe European Union is also an important part of the story. We were frequently shown shiny new tanks and bottling equipment, for example, and our hosts said simply \u201cEU\u201d and smiled. Money from the EU, meant to help modernize the Romanian wine industry and make it more competitive, has funded a fair number of these projects.\nInevitable Headwinds\nWhat factors could push back the rising tide of Romanian wine? Based on first impressions, here is a briefly list of things that I would worry about. The domestic market is intensely important for Romanian producers and it is never easy to guide consumers to more premium products. The fact of high consumption of home-produced wine combined with increased imports makes the local market a tough competitive environment (no wonder Cotnari makes sure their name is everywhere!).\nI am not sure how important exports are at this point because the domestic market is so large, but eventually they will be a factor and then Romanian producers will need to be even more concerned about establishing \u201cBrand Romania\u201d and making sure that there is a high overall level of quality since one bad bottle can ruin reputation for everyone.\nI won\u2019t open the subject of what \u201cBrand Romania\u201d could or should be, but it is fair to say that building it will require a good deal of cooperation and teamwork. And this is one area where there are obvious challenges. Indeed, every time we asked about teamwork among wine producers or regions we were met with a sad shaking of heads. Hasn\u2019t happened. Not going to happen. It is a shame, they said.\nEveryone knows that it is important to work together, but making it happen is still a problem, we were told. Why is cooperation so difficult? It is hard to say and I am sure it is a complicated situation that goes beyond first impressions. Some have written that the stubborn independence of Romanian wine producers is an understandable reaction to the bad old government collective days. But no one we talked with saw that as the source of the problem.\nIf everyone looks out only for themselves, who looks after the big picture? That\u2019s a question still seeking an answer, but not a uniquely Romanian question. We\u2019ve visited many wine regions where producers are still trying to figure out how to work together toward a common goal instead of arguing over what that goal might be or just turning their backs.\nSue and I are optimistic about Romania\u2019s success. Excellent wines, smart, determined people. We raise our glasses to the future of Romanian wine!\nAround the World in Eighty Wines: Racing to the Finish Line\nMarch 21, 2017 By Mike Veseth in globalization, Shameless Self-Promotion\t5 Comments\nSue and I spend so much time travelling to visit the world\u2019s wine regions and speaking to wine industry groups that we sometimes feel a bit like Phileas Fogg and Passepartout, the characters in Jules Verne\u2019s novel Around the World in Eighty Days.\nThat feeling and the experiences that go with it are one of the inspirations for my next book, Around the World in Eighty Wines, which will be released on November 1, 2017. (You can already pre-order it on Amazon.com!).\nAlthough our travels continue (we are off to Spain next week and then to Cyprus in May), at some point it is necessary to draw a line and declare the book itself finished. And that\u2019s what I did today, when I finished proofing the copy-edited manuscript and sent it in to my production editor at Rowman & Littlefield right on deadline.\nThe Wine Economist will take a break for a few weeks while we are in Spain for the FEV General Assembly meetings and visits with winemakers there. Circle back in a few weeks to see what\u2019s new at The Wine Economist. Cheers!\nI asked a few friends to read the manuscript and write brief \u201cblurbs\u201d for the book cover. Here is what we have so far. Enjoy!\nThis captivating book is about more than just wine\u2014it\u2019s about human nature, travel, and enjoyment. As the Rick Steves of the wine world, Mike\u2019s talents as a writer and storyteller transport the reader to a new territory to explore as each of the eighty wines are opened.\n\u2014 Howard Soon, Master Winemaker, Sandhill Wines\nMike Veseth takes the reader on a Phileas Fogg\u2013inspired odyssey in search of the answer to the question: why wine? The solution is a true global adventure\u2014a mosaic of stories that illuminate wine beyond the glass to embody the enduring human spirit through controversy, love, endurance, loss, and hope. I was packing my bags to join the journey before the end of part one. A must-read for all who love wine and life.\n\u2014 Michelle Williams, freelance writer and author of the Rockin Red Blog\nLike a master blender, Mike Veseth stimulates the mind\u2019s appetite with a wonderful balance of illusion and substance, as complex as a fine wine.Structured with cultural nuance and imagination, this delightful book is a must-read for serious wine enthusiasts and neophytes alike. Circumnavigating the world in eighty wines should be enjoyed with a glass of your favorite origin in hand.\n\u2014 George Sandeman, Sogrape Vinhos, Portugal\nMike Veseth has deftly captured the magical worldwide journey of wine. This is a great rollicking educational roller coaster of a ride that the global fraternity of wine enthusiasts will embrace.\n\u2014 Robert Hill-Smith, vigneron, Yalumba, Australia\nWhat\u2019s the Big Deal about Supermarket Wine Sales in British Columbia?\nFebruary 21, 2017 By Mike Veseth in Canada, globalization, wine, wine exports, wine markets\t6 Comments\nWhat\u2019s the big deal about British Columbia supermarket wine sales? It is a very big deal in some circles because the stakes are higher than they might seem. Here\u2019s my analysis of the situation.\nSupermarkets are an important wine sales vector in the United Kingdom and most but not all U.S. states, so many consumers take it for granted that they can walk into their local Safeway, Kroger-affiliate, Whole Foods or Trader Joe\u2019s store and be greeted by a world of wine choices.\nThings are a bit different in Canada. Provincial alcoholic beverage control regimes apply somewhat in the spirit of Sweden\u2019s Systembolaget monopoly, which was at one time the world\u2019s largest wine retailer \u2014 a title that I think passed to the Ontario Liquor Control Board store system before being taken up by Tesco, the British supermarket giant.\nBritish Columbia is moving towards expanded supermarket wine sales after some preliminary trials. The process is a bit awkward because there are many stakeholders with vested interests in the old control system of wine sales. Moving to supermarket sales may increase total wine sales, but the \u201ctrade creation\u201d will be accompanied by a certain amount of \u201ctrade diversion\u201d from other retailers, who are understandably unhappy. There is lots of push back as you would expect.\nThe political economy of B.C. supermarket wine sales is both domestic (more supermarket sales at the expense of existing wine sales license holders) and also international. Incredibly, the B.C. regulations exclude non-B.C. wines from regular supermarket shelves (imported wine may theoretically be sold in a separate and costly and somewhat inconvenient \u201cstore within a store\u201d). This has produced an international dust up as the United States has brought charges at the World Trade Organization over the discriminatory practice, an action that the European Union and New Zealand have also supported. The list of wine exporting countries lined up against the B.C. supermarket regime continues to grow. Argentina recently joined the US in this action and Australia quickly followed suit..\nWhat is the problem? Can\u2019t British Columbia to what it wants regarding wine retail regulations? Maybe not, because Canada (along with most of the world\u2019s nations) is a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and is bound by its rules.\nThe World Trade Organization is actually a fairly weak international institution. It has spent the last couple of decades trying and failing to reach a global agreement on trade liberalization. But the WTO (through its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade or GATT) was founded on two very strong principles: Most-favored-nation (MFN) treatment and non-discrimination.\nMost-favored nation treatment prohibits a country from discriminating at the border against the goods of one WTO-member trading partner relative to others in terms of tariffs and so forth. Every country gets the deal that the most-favored country gets. You cannot single out one country for better treatment or \u2014 the real fear \u2014 impose sanctions against another except in well-defined circumstances. This was one reason why China worked so hard to get into the WTO \u2014 to limit the threat of a trade war against its products.\nThe MFN rule has been diluted somewhat in recent years as bi-lateral and multi-lateral preferential trade agreements like NAFTA have become more important. (The rise of preferential agreements is often seen as a reaction to the inability of the WTO to produce agreements on broader, global trade regimes) These agreements allow a certain amount of systematic positive discrimination in favor of fellow trade block members. The MFN rule still controls negative \u201ctrade war\u201d discrimination.\nThe second rule, the non-discrimination principle, holds that once a product enters a country, paying whatever legal tariffs are levied at the border, it cannot suffer internal discrimination because of its import status. It must be treated from a regulatory standpoint just as domestic products are treated. That\u2019s a powerful principle.\nI am an economist, not a lawyer, but it seems to be that allowing domestic B.C. wines to be sold in supermarkets while prevented equal access to legally-imported California, France, New Zealand or Australia wines would seem to be a violation of the non-discrimination principle and actionable under WTO rules.\nI was aware of some discussion of possible US action through the WTO as the BC supermarket protocols were being developed, but the US threat was taken lightly by some north of the border. The BC market is relatively small (we are not talking Ontario here) and there are substantial costs to initiating a WTO action, which can take years to resolve and burn up a lot of attorney fees in the process. Not worth the trouble! So some people in BC were surprised when the US finally acted.\nBut I was not surprised. While BC market losses might be relatively small for international wines, they establish a precedent that could be important if the local-product-only supermarket sales idea spreads \u2014 to Ontario, for example. And there might be other discriminatory practices that apply in Canada and its provinces that need to be studied \u2014 the supermarket rule might have been the tipping point to take action.\nFinally, there is a more global concern. We seem to be living through a period when protectionist rhetoric is in the air and actions that challenge or violate the rules of fair trade are seriously proposed.\nIn this environment, it is in the interest of global industries like wine to resist the protectionist tide wherever possible on the grounds of both principle and interest (self-interest, that is).",

        "raw_content": "Posted in Behavior, Blended Families, Divorce & Separation\nMy five year old stepson Andrew is with us 5 days/wk. with his mother on weekends. She got a new bf (Matt, who lives two hours away) and because the courts gave her all thanksgiving day, she took him to his house and they stayed the whole thanksgiving weekend. She has made him call the new bf - second one since September - MattyDaddy right from the start. She\u2019s trying to replace his dad and get in jabs at him. Well, since all this happened, Andrew: 1: Has has the biggest attitude. He generally loves me, but since thanksgiving is just spiteful. After about Thursday, he starts warming up to me again, wanting hugs and cuddles, but then he\u2019s back with his mom for the weekend on Friday. 2. He has to listen to his mom say crap about us the whole time he\u2019s there. He tells us that mommy hates me and she says mean things about daddy. 3. He\u2019s started to be afraid to do anything to disappoint her. I wouldn\u2019t let him take our house boots with him one week (she will literally ruin our stuff on purpose, and there was no snow) and he sobbed for 20 minutes because mommy was gonna be so mad at him. He wouldn\u2019t eat one week because he overheard her yelling at my FIL she was gonna get him drive thru... and then was more than an hour late picking him up. He was starving. 4. Won\u2019t listen at school... his school behavior has been almost perfect since he started. But he\u2019s been getting into trouble - even went in an off limit area, fell, and we had to take him to the ER. He busted his face up pretty badly. His eyelid needed medically glued back together. 5. And last but not least - he has started pooping his pants. Today is time number 5 in a month. Until today, it\u2019s been at school. He says that Matt is very nice, so I am happy about that. The last bf jerked him around a lot. I guess I just need some advice. I know it\u2019s really hard on him. I know he\u2019s confused and doesn\u2019t understand what\u2019s happening. But I am so frustrated with his behavior... I know that yelling isn\u2019t gonna accomplish anything. I don\u2019t spank him. I try to be as patient and loving as possible. I do keep what discipline he gets here very constant. I\u2019ve worked with kids for 12 years... I am pretty good with almost every kid. I nannied a boy with severe behavior issues. But I just don\u2019t know what to do with him anymore. I love him so much. I know he needs to be with us because life with his mother isn\u2019t good. I just feel very spent. Any advice on how to help him, or deal with his attitude, or to get him to stop pooping his pants would be greatly appreciated.\nHelp!!!

        "raw_content": "Lowry snaps drought before it drags on\u2026Mason keeps positive attitude\u2026Hellebuyck\u2019s numbers show regression, but remain strong\nAdam Lowry hadn\u2019t reached the point of stressing out about it just yet, but finding the back of the net for the first time this season is always welcome.\nGLENDALE \u2013 Adam Lowry hadn\u2019t reached the point of stressing out about it just yet, but finding the back of the net for the first time this season is always welcome.\nFriday was only the sixth game of the season for the Winnipeg Jets centre, but things seemed to be taking longer than normal because Lowry missed nine games with a back injury after going without a point in his first four contests of the campaign.\nAfter the Jets fell behind 2-0 on Friday against the Vegas Golden Knights, Lowry showed good hand-eye co-ordination by redirecting home a point shot from Dmitry Kulikov on the ensuing shift to cut the deficit.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nice. You miss some time and you haven\u2019t really contributed on the score sheet, it\u2019s nice to get that out of the way,\u201d said Lowry. \u201cYou don\u2019t want to wait too long and start gripping the stick too tight. I was happy to see it go in, but it would have been nicer if it was in a win.\u201d\nLowry\u2019s first game back was Monday\u2019s 4-1 win against the Dallas Stars.\nHe was the first to admit it took a while to get his legs back up to speed, but Lowry logged some important minutes against the line of Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn and Alex Radulov and was also back in his familiar spot on the penalty kill.\n\u201cIt\u2019s tough to replicate the pace of the game, the reads and the decisions you have to make in an NHL game,\u201d said Lowry, who set a career-high with 15 goals and 29 points in 82 games last season. \u201cIt certainly wasn\u2019t my best game, but that was to be expected. The penalty kill is going to be a big part of my game. That\u2019s where I\u2019m going to boost my minutes. It\u2019s nice to get back on that because you feel like you\u2019re contributing right away.\u201d\nLowry was effective in Friday\u2019s loss to the Golden Knights, finishing with three shots on goal and five hits.\nWhile the top line of Mark Scheifele, Blake Wheeler and Kyle Connor is seeing a lot of time against the opposition\u2019s top offensive line, having the ability to slot in Lowry\u2019s unit is something Jets head coach Paul Maurice is going to do from time to time.\nThat\u2019s a role Lowry has being groomed for.\n\u201cThe Scheifele line have really taken another step this year,\u201d said Lowry. \u201cIf we have our line take some of those match-ups, it allows them to get some easier offensive minutes and that\u2019s really beneficial for our team. And for us, it\u2019s always fun to go up against those (top offensive) guys. As competitors, you always want to go up against the best and you want to do well.\u201d\nMason stays positive\nIt\u2019s never easy for a veteran goalie to go seven games between starts, but Maurice believes Steve Mason has done his best to be a supportive partner and stay ready for his next start \u2013 which came Saturday against the Arizona Coyotes.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to explain it to him. (Mason) has seen (Hellebuyck) playing well,\u201d said Maurice. \u201cHe\u2019s looked at the calendar and the schedule, so he understands why the starts have been given to (Hellebuyck). (Mason) has been a good pro, worked hard trying to get stronger and get better and get ready more than anything else because he knows he\u2019s going to get a start here and it\u2019s going to be an important game. (Mason) has been around the game long enough to know both goalies have to take the ball at different times during the year and carry that ball. He\u2019s going to do everything that he can that when it\u2019s his turn, he\u2019ll be ready.\u201d\nWith the games spread out, it will be interesting to see when Mason\u2019s next start comes \u2013 whether he\u2019s back between the pipes in the rematch with the Coyotes on Tuesday or gets an opportunity to face his former team, the Philadelphia Flyers, on Thursday as the Jets continue a three-game homestand that concludes with a Saturday matinee against the New Jersey Devils.\nHellebuyck comes back to earth\nJets goalie Connor Hellebuyck started the season posting numbers that were extraordinary, with a sub 2.00 goals-against average and a save % at .940.\nSo it was natural to wonder if \u2013 or when \u2013 things would level out.\nDuring two of the past three starts, Hellebuyck has allowed five goals \u2013 including Friday\u2019s loss to the Golden Knights saw him make only 16 saves before he was pulled after the second period.\nIn the 5-4 overtime loss to the Montreal Canadiens, Hellebuyck still made 45 saves and he suffered his first regulation defeat of the campaign on Friday \u2013 leaving him with a record of 8-1-2, a 2.44 goals-against average and .926 save %.\nThose are still strong numbers overall.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to happen,\u201d Hellebuyck said when asked about getting the hook for the first time this season. \u201cI\u2019m going to look to get better and I\u2019m going to work harder tomorrow. I\u2019m not going to let this phase me. But I\u2019m going to use this as motivation.\u201d\nMoose continue to roll\nAfter opening a six-game swing with a 5-2 loss to the Bakersfield Condors, the Manitoba Moose have won four consecutive games, including Saturday\u2019s 5-2 triumph over the San Jose Barracuda.\nThe primary affiliate of the Jets improved to 8-4-1-1 on the American Hockey League season.\nJets top prospect Jack Roslovic has been on fire of late, chipping in four goals and 10 points during the past four games to move to eight goals and 17 points in 14 games this season.\nSpeaking of forward prospects, forward Nic Petan has one goal (an empty-netter) and five points in seven games since he was sent to the minors.\nThe Moose close out the road trip on Sunday with the rematch against the Barracuda before heading back for a four-game homestand.",

        "raw_content": "By wymsel on May 9, 2013 \u2022 ( 1 Comment )\nI look at him and know: I am his real mother. And so is she. Both of us real, whole, complete, and needing each other. Because life didn\u2019t weave a story where he has one, it wove a story where he would have both of us. One of us would give him life, a heritage, a history. And the other would raise him.\nThe whole idea of \u201cmeant to be\u201d is a confusing one for me. Was I meant to be his mother? I\u2019ve never wanted that to be true because that means he was meant to lose them and I refuse to believe that\u2019s true. I refuse to believe that my \u201cmeant to be\u201d hinged on the unfairness of life for others. So I\u2019m okay with being his second best. The backup plan. The replacement. But what about for him? Does that mean his life will be spent in what wasn\u2019t meant to be? Does that mean his life will always be second best? I refuse to believe that either.\nSo maybe there isn\u2019t what is meant to be and what isn\u2019t. Maybe there\u2019s simply what is. And what we do with it. The life we create out of the life we are handed.\nI thought I would be insecure about this question of realness. I thought I would worry about which one of us will hold the place in his heart marked \u201cmother\u201d. But I don\u2019t. Because what I now know is far more important is there\u2019s one in my heart for him marked \u201cson\u201d.\nHers was the heart he first heard beat. Listening to it as he grew beneath it. Its lifeblood flowing through him, nurturing him, creating him, one with him. And mine is the one he hears as he\u2019s rocked to sleep, pounding beneath his little ear in a rhythmic dance of lifelove. There is no competition here, there is no either/or, there is simply both. We are Mother.",

Scam. He\u2019s got a voice inside him that\u2019ll say whatever you want to hear, whether it\u2019s true or not. Which is handy, except when it isn\u2019t\u2014like when the voice starts gabbing in the middle of a bank robbery. The only people who can help are the other Zeroes, who aren\u2019t exactly best friends these days.\nEnter Nate, a.k.a. Bellwether, the group\u2019s \u201cglorious leader.\u201d After Scam\u2019s SOS, he pulls the scattered Zeroes back together. But when the rescue blows up in their faces, the Zeroes find themselves propelled into whirlwind encounters with ever more dangerous criminals. At the heart of the chaos they find Kelsie, who can take a crowd in the palm of her hand and tame it or let it loose as she pleases.\nFilled with high-stakes action and drama, Zeroes unites three powerhouse authors for the opening installment of a thrilling new series.\nThis was an okay read. It's about 6 teens. They have \"powers\". Nate can see connections and control group emotions. Riley is blind but she can see through other people eyes. Chizara can feel technology her base power is to crash network systems (or anything electrical really) but she also has the potential to fix burnt out devices. Ethan has a voice that can get him whatever he wants. However, the voice can no conscience and has a tendency to make matters worse. Thibault can also see connections however, unlike Nate those connections are not strong. He is easily forgettable. Kelsey is also like Nate in that she can control the emotions of a crowd but her crowd control is as a group. She can intensify whatever they are feeling or pass on her emotions to the crowd.\nEthan was the central character is this book. Or should I say, his voice was. It started because he wanted a ride home but when the person he tried to get the ride from was bigger and scarier than he thought he made the mistake of letting the voice do the talking. From that point on things went down hill for him and the zeroes. Ethan's voice is a jerk but Ethan isn't that great of a guy either.\nA lot of what happen could have been prevented had he not wanted to keep that duffle filled with money. Ethan looked up schizophrenia once and thought that applied to him. And I guess if you just go on the hearing voices part it fits. I think of it as more of a multiple personality. Whenever Ethan wants something that he cannot get himself the voice comes out.\nAnyway, the only character that really had me was Thibault. How said is his story? Unable to make any connections. Constantly being forgotten. I'm glad that it seems that there are ways to remember him though none are long lasting but hopefully he'll get the connections he so desperately want. Aaaahhh, his story about how he ended up living on his home is nothing short of heartbreaking.\nThibault saved the story for me. There is a bit of a romance with Riley. A potential love triangle when you add in the fact that Nate is probably still in love with Riley. I don't know. The story didn't grab me like I wanted it to but it was too bad. In the end, the story was okay (the whole we have powers so we should learn how to control them) but don't be surprised if you don't connect with most or any of the characters.\nScott Westerfeld is a New York Times bestselling author of YA. He was born in the Texas and now lives in Sydney and New York City.

        "raw_content": "Home News\tDaily maintenance of slip ring crane dut\u2026\nDaily maintenance of slip ring crane duty motors-1\nFor the maintenance of the slip ring crane duty motors, in order to correct the motor fault correctly and in time to ensure the normal operation of the motor, it is necessary to master the temperature rise, voltage, current, load condition, heat dissipation condition, flexibility of the rotor rotation, and the flexibility of the crane motor. No sound, winding insulation, insulation of lead wires and terminals, and flexibility of the mechanism, etc., to find the fault location correctly and timely.\nThe slip ring crane duty motor power supply voltage should generally not be higher or lower than 5% of the rated value, the minimum is not less than 15%, and the voltage difference between any two phases does not exceed 5% of the average value of the three phases.\nThe gap between the stator and rotor of the slip ring crane duty motor is 0.25~2mm. The gap is large, the power factor is low, the gap is small, and the power factor is high, but the assembly is difficult and unsafe. The maximum speed of the bridge crane motor and gantry crane motor must not exceed 2.5 times its synchronous speed.\nAfter the rolling bearing of the three phase electric motor is operated for 1000~1500h, the oil should be added once; after 2500~3000h, the oil should be changed. When the oil is changed, the bearing must be cleaned before adding new oil.\nThe frame and end cover of the slip ring crane duty motor are not allowed to have cracks. Otherwise, mechanical deformation will occur, resulting in uneven air gap between the stator and the rotor, causing the motor to vibrate. In severe cases, the stator and the rotor will collide and the three phase electric motor will be damaged.Before the new or overhauled crane duty motor is used, in addition to the general visual inspection and the flexibility of the test rotor, the insulation must also be checked with a shaker. The winding insulation resistance of the stator and rotor should be above 2 M\u03a9, and the minimum rotor should be no less than 0.8 M\u03a9, otherwise it should be dried. The method is to put the whole motor into the drying box or pass the short-circuit current of low voltage, and the latter is to connect the tail end of each desired winding and the first end to the power supply with the rated voltage of 20%. The current flowing through the motor at this time (ie, the current in the gambling state) should be less than its rated value. Cover the canvas (with vent holes on both the upper and lower sides), and keep the temperature of the slip ring crane duty motor at 40~50 \u00b0C in the beginning of 2~3h. After 3 hours, the motor surface temperature was 50~70 \u00b0C. The drying time varies according to the insulation performance of the three-phase motor, which is 12 to 20 hours. In this thermal state, the stator insulation resistance is 1 M\u03a9, and the rotor resistance is 0.5 M\u03a9. The insulation resistance will increase by 2 to 3 times after cooling.\nPREVIOUS\uff1aHow to improve the service life of 3 phase induction motor\nNEXT\uff1aDaily maintenance of crane motor-2",

For your sake, and your baby s too\nAn intriguing association: Gestational infection and cerebral palsy in offspring.\nHeavy moms, heavy newborns\nACSH\u2019s Dr. Jamie Wells Debunks Myths About The \u2018Fourth Trimester\u2019 On Fox TV\nThe Pregnancy Diaries: Measuring Big or Small For Gestational Age\nThe recent death of a young Arkansas woman from the H1N1 flu virus is not just a testament of how traditionally innocuous illnesses can pose serious threats during pregnancy. Instead, it is an essential lesson illuminating the necessity of flu vaccinations for pregnant women.\nThe CDC recommends the flu shot as the first and most important step in protecting against flu. Pregnancy induces changes in a woman s body that strains the heart and lungs. Moreover, the initial stage of pregnancy presents a distinct shift in the maternal-fetal microenvironment. Higher levels of the steroid hormone, progesterone, have an anti-inflammatory effect in order to accept the semi-foreign fetus. This in turn leaves the mother highly susceptible to severe illness when infected with pathogens like the H1N1 virus, as she is likely to be less able to mount an effective immune response.\nAs such, a flu shot reduces the likelihood of a pregnant woman contracting the infection, and tends to reduce its severity even if contracted. Influenza among pregnant women is associated with a significantly increased risk of both fetal and maternal complications (including miscarriage, premature birth, and low birth weight), and protects the baby after birth. Even more comforting is evidence that suggests women mount a higher antibody response to vaccines, better protecting themselves and their baby. Antibodies developed in response to a flu vaccination can pass through the placenta and protect the baby. This is an effective strategy to prevent the flu in newborn infants, as they are unable to receive the flu vaccine until 6 months after birth.\nACSH s Dr. Gilbert Ross adds, We discussed this very point not long ago: flu vaccine is an essential part of the general approach to helping moms-to-be have a safe and healthy pregnancy and enhances the likelihood of a healthy newborn. It s tragic that the young wife and mother-to-be in Arkansas got such bad advice from her doctor, but her death may help educate others. No research to date supports adverse effects of the flu vaccine to the mother or her child. Pregnant women must then seek vaccination early in the flu season regardless of gestational age. And physicians should be communicating this information to their pregnant patients.",

        "raw_content": "Inicio/Recursos/Gran Canaria Declaration on Climate Change and Plant Conservation\nIn issuing its \u2018Gran Canaria Declaration on Climate Change and Plant Conservation\u2019 the Gran Canaria Group, whose membership is drawn from major biodiversity conservation organisations around the world, including botanic gardens, is calling on the international community to take urgent action to protect global plant diversity. The declaration provides specific guidelines for action and recognises the pivotal role of botanic gardens in delivering the conservation message worldwide to their over 200 million annual visitors. Equally important, it says, botanic gardens offer an insurance policy for the future, their collections of wild plants safeguarded as native habitats vanish. Key climate change concerns are also highlighted in the declaration, including the use of natural vegetation in water management and carbon offsetting and the vital defensive work of coastal ecosystems in the face of rising sea levels and extreme weather events. The declaration calls for immediate conservation action to protect plant species most at risk from climate change. And priority must also be given to: The development of more detailed climate change modelling to detect potentially threatened species Implementation of adaptive management strategies in vulnerable ecosystems Sustainable management of existing natural vegetation to maintain carbon stocks and the monitoring of new plantings intended to offset carbon emissions, to ensure their ecological suitability Building on the United Nation\u2019 s successful adoption in 2002 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), following the first Gran Canaria Declaration in 2000, the group argues for a re-definition of the GSPC to respond more effectively to the realities of climate change. It recommends that the BGCI-facilitated Global Partnership for Plant Conservation (GPPC), which supports and is active in implementing the GSPC, be closely involved in this process. The terrifying implications of plant extinctions for the future of humankind and the wellbeing of the planet simply cannot be underestimated, the scientists believe and time, they argue, is running out. A recent study of four of the world\u2019s most important food crops, rice, potato, peanut and cowpea, predicts that climate change over the next fifty years will have a devastating impact on their wild relatives, which harbour the genetic diversity that may enable cultivated crops to adapt to changing climatic conditions. By 2055, says the research, up to a quarter of all potato, peanut and cowpea species could become extinct and over 50% of the land area currently suitable for their cultivation could be gone.\nBGCI. 2006.

        "raw_content": "Drug Rehab and Treatment Centers Information Fall River, Massachusetts\nLooking for Drug Rehab and treatment centers in Fall River, Massachusetts?\nThere are many drug and alcohol treatment programs options available to individuals residing in the Fall River region. You should understand all the varieties of rehab choices available in Fall River, AB., so that you can choose the ideal rehabilitation option for yourself or a loved one. Selecting the proper alcohol and drug treatment center in Fall River is the central factor in the process of treating of substance abuse, drug addiction and alcoholism. The following info will help you to fully grasp your various rehabilitation options so that you have the best probability of an ideal outcome.\nLet's examine the various alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Fall River, Massachusetts possibilities that correlate with the condition of the individual looking for treatment.\nInpatient drug and alcohol rehab in Fall River, AB. is often a rehabilitation possibility ideal for many who will need medical treatment for the duration of rehabilitation or clients with substantial drug use histories. Women and men will experience physical and mental dependence to alcohol and drugs even after a short time period, so inpatient drug and alcohol rehab in Fall River is considered the most effective treatment possibility in the majority of situations. Due to dependence and addiction, people will most likely struggle to recover using the minimal services provided by outpatient treatment centers in Fall River, Massachusetts where drugs continue to be easily available when they leave the outpatient facility. Likewise, individuals in treatment who receive outpatient treatment as an alternative to inpatient alcohol and drug treatment in Fall River remain susceptible to detrimental influences and situations which might cut across their process of recovery. If a person lives with an abusive partner or maintains associations which involve substance abuse, any rehabilitation activities in outpatient treatment will be in vain. That is why in-patient alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Fall River, AB. will result in more tangible outcomes which will prove lasting contrary to an outpatient drug rehabilitation program where advantages are often very minimal and short-lived.\nIn Fall River there's both short-term and long-term inpatient drug and alcohol rehab. Short-term is often a 30-day facility, while long-term inpatient alcohol and drug treatment in Fall River, Massachusetts is more prolonged and rehabilitation lasts 3 to 6 months generally speaking. It is deemed an excellent setting for clients as it is a completely drug-free setting where they are able to recover both physically and mentally without distraction. Preferably, women and men will continue inside a long-term in-patient drug treatment program in Fall River for the maximum time frame allowed, to enable them to deal with anything which can jeopardize their abstinence once they leave treatment. Due to the fact detoxing and becoming physically stabilized can take 2-3 weeks by itself, the 3 to 6 months in long-term in-patient drug rehabilitation in Fall River is going to be time spent well and significantly more effective than short-term facilities.\nThe key aspect of all if you or a loved one is struggling with a substance abuse or addiction problem is to get it resolved right away, call someone and talk to experienced addiction specialists and get an assessment and treatment possibilities to ensure the best opportunity for a full recovery.\nThe following are local drug rehab listings for Fall River, Massachusetts:\n(Fall River is from Fall River)\nContact SSTAR, by calling 508-324-3500 x3265.\nDrug and Alcohol Rehab, Drug And Alcohol Detox Programs, Short Term Drug Rehab Centers, Drug Treatment for Dual Diagnosis Clients, Drug Rehab Centers For Pregnant Women, Drug Rehab Programs For Hearing Impaired Clients, Drug Rehab Centers For Spanish Speaking Clients, Languages other than Spanish\nIn 2008, there were 2.2 million persons aged 12 or older who had used marijuana for the first time within the past 12 months; this averages to about 6,000 initiates per day. This estimate was about the same as the estimate in 2007 (2.1 million) and 2002 (2.2 million).",

        "raw_content": "Welcome to the first issue of Constructive Comments \u2013 GCC edition.\nThis publication is intended to provide an update to those working in the GCC region on significant recent developments in the construction and engineering sector.\nIn this edition our Construction and Litigation teams look at:\nthe process for and pitfalls of enforcement of arbitral awards in the region, focussing on the UAE, Qatar and Oman; and\nthe enforceability of notice provisions and time bars in the UAE and Qatar.\nIn our recent news section, we provide an overview of:\nrecent developments in the GCC construction market, including new penalties for failure to maintain requirements of integrity and impartiality in arbitration; and\nthe impact of VAT legislation in the GCC and what you should be considering when drafting contracts which will be ongoing when the new legislation comes into force.\nIn addition, this issue's guest slot is provided by Addleshaw Goddard's corporate team in Oman and focuses on doing business in Iran.\nIf you have any queries or comments arising from the subjects covered in this issue or suggestions for subjects you would like to see covered in later issues, please contact Bevan Farmer, one of our GCC Construction/Litigation Partners.\nEnforcement of Arbitral Awards: Processes and Pitfalls\nArbitration is the most popular formal dispute mechanism to resolve construction and engineering disputes. The benefits of arbitration when compared with litigation can include speed, cost, procedural flexibility, sector specific expertise, confidentiality, neutrality and finality. However, obtaining an arbitral award in your favour is seldom the end of the process in obtaining the relief to which you are entitled.\nThis article sets out some of the difficulties an Award Creditor may face when attempting to enforce an arbitral award in the GCC with particular focus on the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman.\nThis article examines the enforceability of notice provisions and time bars in the UAE and Qatar.\nNew penalties for failure to maintain requirements of integrity and impartiality in arbitration\nConcerns have been raised amongst the international arbitration community due to a recent Federal Decree issued in the UAE. As of 29 October 2016, by Federal Decree \u2013 Law No. 7 of 2016, the Penal Code (Federal Law No. 3 of 1987) was amended.\nVAT is on its way to the GCC. It is not clear when VAT will finally be introduced or the exact terms of how it is to be implemented but it is understood that there is a GCC-wide initiative to introduce VAT by 2019.\nIn July 2015, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (\"JCPOA\") was agreed by the United States of America (\"US\"), European Union (\"EU\"), United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, China and Iran. It was implemented on 16 January 2016, after the International Atomic Energy Agency verified Iran had satisfied a number of obligations concerning nuclear disengagement. Given this recent development towards re-engagement with Iran, this article briefly identifies which sanctions have been lifted, discusses the common types of business entities through which a foreign company might do business in Iran (beyond the 'fly in, fly out' model) and explores some related legal and practical considerations.\nHead of GCC Construction and Engineering\nOur GCC presence comprises offices in Dubai, Doha and Muscat and our lawyers are all long-term residents in the region.",

However, did you know that you can actually make money from the website as they now have an affiliate program that is joinable by almost anyone? The Ticketmaster affiliate program will give you the opportunity to make a little bit of extra money online without having to do much at all so it is well worth a look. The affiliate scheme is easy and quick to sign up to form Ticketmaster and can be done asily on their website. Once you are signed up, you will need to find a way of marketing their website so that you can make some money. This is easy if you have a relevant website as you will be able to place the link to their website with your affiliate ID on your site, along with an image that gives credit to Ticketmaster of course. However, if you don?t have a website there are a couple of options. One of the options is to set up a website; website design is very cheap these days and you can get one developed rather quickly. Another option is to use social media websites to advertise your link. Because you will have an affiliate link to the Ticketmaster website, you will be able to post it anywhere you like including on Facebook and Twitter as well as other social networking website. You will also be able to link it via email and on forums and blogs. The Ticketmaster affiliate scheme is a little less generous with their commissions than most other affiliate schemes however as they will only give you 25 pence for each sale you generate. This is very low compared to other affiliate schemes out there but if you have a relevant area to post the link or the Ticketmaster widget then you can still stand to make a good amount of money on high volume sales.\njosh87, Jun 22, 2011",

        "title": "The Trump-Sanders Coalition - Accuracy in Media",
        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s Journalistic Weapon Now Targets Hillary\nDemocrats\u2019 Racist Roots Examined in New Film\nThe Trump-Sanders Coalition\nYou know the terms \u201cleft\u201d and \u201cright\u201d are losing meaning when left-wing websites are praising the Republican presidential candidate and attacking the Democrat, and Russia seems to be intervening in favor of the GOP.\nThe Institute for Public Accuracy (IPA), which has been pulling for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic race, has sent out an advisory entitled, \u201cWhat Trump is Right About: NATO.\u201d On the other hand, Mrs. Clinton\u2019s pick for her running mate, Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA), has been depicted by the same group as a creature of Wall Street.\nThe IPA is not alone. Journalism Professor Jeff Cohen, co-founder of RootsAction.org and communications coordinator of the Bernie Delegates Network, has been quoted as saying that Kaine is a \u201ccorporatist,\u201d or stooge of Big Business. Cohen\u2019s colleague, Norman Solomon, calls Kaine a puppet of the \u201coligarchy.\u201d\nAt the same time, WikiLeaks has released an email database from the Democratic National Committee, demonstrating that the DNC intervened in the primary contest against Sanders and in favor of Clinton. Since Russian hackers obtained the DNC emails, it means that Moscow wants to cause mischief on the Democratic side just as Hillary is getting the presidential nomination this week in Philadelphia.\nAn explanation for this interesting series of events may be found in the IPA news release on Trump and NATO, quoting Professor David N. Gibbs as saying that \u201cTrump\u2019s recent criticisms of the NATO alliance are reasonable.\u201d He adds, \u201cTrump is right to question NATO\u2019s value in promoting U.S. security, and also to raise the issue of the enormous financial cost of this alliance to the U.S. taxpayer.\u201d Gibbs has appeared on RT, the Russia Today propaganda channel.\nTrump\u2019s pro-Russian outlook has caused great consternation among conservatives who see the Vladimir Putin regime as the aggressor in Europe and interfering in the Middle East. Trump\u2019s allies vetoed tough language in the Republican platform urging heavy weapons for Ukraine to fight Russian aggression. Instead, the Trump forces inserted language about providing \u201cappropriate assistance\u201d to Ukraine.\nBy contrast, the Democratic platform is tough on Russia and attacks Trump\u2019s position on NATO. It says, \u201cRussia is engaging in destabilizing actions along its borders, violating Ukraine\u2019s sovereignty and attempting to recreate spheres of influence that undermine American interests. It is also propping up the Assad regime in Syria, which is brutally attacking its own citizens. Donald Trump would overturn more than 50 years of American foreign policy by abandoning NATO partners\u201444 countries who help us fight terrorism every day\u2014and embracing Russian President Vladimir Putin instead. We believe in strong alliances and will deter Russian aggression, build European resilience, and protect our NATO allies.\u201d\nThese words sound great, except for the fact that, as secretary of state, Mrs. Clinton had an opportunity to be tough with the Russians and blew it. Her Russian reset led to the invasion of Ukraine. It also masked the uranium deal highlighted in the movie \u201cClinton Cash,\u201d based on the book, a deal in which the Russians bought 20 percent of America\u2019s uranium production as millions of dollars flowed to the Clinton Foundation and hundreds of thousands of dollars went to Bill Clinton personally.\nHas Hillary Clinton changed her mind on Russia? That\u2019s what the platform would suggest. If so, it would be a big opening for Trump to pounce on her flip-flops. But he hasn\u2019t done so. Instead, he refuses to take on Russian aggression in Europe or the Middle East.\nIn his speech, however, Trump openly appealed to Sanders supporters, saying they \u201cwill join our movement, because we will fix his biggest issue: trade deals that strip our country of its jobs and wealth.\u201d\nTrump\u2019s appeal to Sanders supporters is based on trade. But it appears that his pro-Russian foreign policy has some appeal to them as well. If the Sanders supporters perceive Hillary Clinton to be a hawk on foreign policy, as Sanders himself suggested during the campaign, it\u2019s possible they could either sit out the race or vote for the New York billionaire.",

        "raw_content": "Munger: ORNL gets chance to shine with delegation on hand\nKnoxville News-Sentinel - Frank Munger\nWith Labor Day weekend looming and congressional business on hold for the moment, last Thursday was a perfect time for members of the Tennessee delegation to visit Oak Ridge National Laboratory, pose for a few pictures and relish the good things of science. It also was a chance to draw more attention to the recently passed America COMPETES Act, the legislation that's supposed to inject more life - and many billions of dollars - into the nation's science, math and education programs. U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., put a lot of effort into the bill's passage, and he rightly received the credit during the ceremonies at ORNL. U.S. Rep. Bart Gordon, D-Tenn., chairman of the House Science Committee, was also on hand, along with U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp, R-Tenn., whose district includes the lab and other federal facilities in Oak Ridge. Alexander was particularly impressed during a tour of ORNL's supercomputing facilities, where he got a stunning visual presentation on the research that's taking place, including studies of Alzheimer's drugs to learn how they work at the atomic level. The senator indicated he learned much more at Oak Ridge than he did when he was dispatched to Japan a couple of years ago to see the Earth Simulator, the supercomputer that grabbed the world's attention with its unprecedented capabilities and set off a race for bigger and better machines. \"I went all the way over there, and it was just boxes,\" Alexander said. The ceremonies were among the first for Thom Mason to host since becoming director of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and he was convincing in the role. Mason is a brilliant scientist and a confident administrator, and he comes across as both. He appeared to handle all the situations with ease, except perhaps for some protocol details. Billy Stair, the lab's communications chief, seemed out-and-out perturbed with Mason when the ORNL director lingered to talk with the press when he was supposed to get outside to say goodbye to the important guests. Stair raised his voice a few decibels to get Mason's attention from across an auditorium at the Spallation Neutron Source. The University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory were partners in a proposal that recently claimed the second-place prize in a major supercomputer competition hosted by the National Science Foundation. The program is pushing U.S. development of petascale computers for science research. Petascale means computers capable of a thousand trillion calculations per second. The UT-ORNL team will get a new computer, which will be housed at the Oak Ridge lab, but the $65 million grant was not nearly as big as the $208 million top award that went to a team led by the University of Illinois. Some reports indicated that the UT-ORNL team, which includes the Texas Advanced Computer Center and the National Center for Atmospheric Research, nearly won the top prize. And some folks obviously felt it should have. Asked about those reports, Mason was diplomatic: \"Well, I don't know how the voting went because, of course, that's an NSF thing, but I know we had a very strong proposal.\" Did the UT-ORNL team deserve the Track I award? \"We're very pleased with Track II, and we're going to be at the forefront of computing in 2011 with or without Track I,\" he said. Did UT-ORNL have the best proposal? \"I know we had the best proposal,\" Mason said, \"but I know there also were some other strong proposals out there.\"",

        "title": "5 Leadership Mistakes that Even the Best Leaders Commit",
        "raw_content": "Even people with better leadership skills make certain mistakes that are repeated in their companies and cause discomfort in their employees. Today, we review five of the highlights so you can correct them on time.\nThere are several recurring shortcomings when it comes to communicating with your employees, delegating responsibilities or correcting mistakes in the work processes of your company. Although the error is human, if you know them in advance you will be able to detect that type of attitudes and eliminate the bad behaviours, generating better levels of satisfaction among your employees.\nTo reduce the most common failures as much as possible, it is important to build your own leadership attributes, build a strong reliable and task assigned team and clean up the toxic environment in your company by asking teammates to put their ego aside and work together for company\u2019s future. It\u2019s very important to correct errors in the functioning of a company, there is nothing to be humiliated by the error but humility can reduce the errors by recognising the failures along with detection of shortcomings and liabilities and suiting up for a plan of action to address them and turn those weaknesses into strength.\n5 Frequent leadership Failures\nThese are the 5 leadership mistakes that most of them will commit.\n1. Do not really listen to the people who are part of your company\nListening is not the same as listening actively and deeply. Many experts recommend conducting a business practice called \u201cstay interviews\u201d consisting of listening to feedback from employees in order to gain a new vision on how to improve the work environment and retain talent, thus improving corporate culture and achieving will make employees feel valuable and important. It is about taking advantage of active listening as a powerful tool to unite the team.\n2. Do not provide employees with enough information\nIt is important that the communication is fluid and constant, informing your team of the changes and providing positive and negative feedback so that they can improve and not feel unmotivated or disconnected from the company. When the spirits are low or there are problems, it is essential to know how to reassure employees and provide them with tools, maintaining a close emotional distance and encouraging mutual trust among all team members.\n3. Do not train your team members\nKnowing how to do business coaching is essential to convey knowledge, bring value and get employees to progress within the company and see their talent grow. Those leaders who function as good coaches are able to increase the productivity of their team, achieve greater integration, multiply their capacities and improve their levels of motivation. Training includes training and mentoring, as well as a process of positive and mutual dialogue that includes asking, giving advice, providing help, tracking and investing time.\n4. Do not recognise the merits and achievements of your employees\nEven the best leaders have ever neglected the recognition of their employees, something that drastically improves their experience in the company, their self-perception of value and the establishment of new goals and expectations. As we have stressed on other occasions, sometimes a pizza or a praise is more important than a salary increase. Having a recognition program, especially those whose rewards are based on demonstrating core values is essential to have satisfied employees, according to recent research by the IBM Smarter Workforce Institute and the Globoforce WorkHuman Research Institute.\n5. The error of a \u201cclosed door policy\u201d\nAn open door policy is essential for employees to reach high levels and improve their levels of satisfaction, encouraging the sharing of ideas, impressions, solutions and expectations through periodic meetings, strategies Role-sharing and feedback tools. The fact that employees can knock your door to talk about their problems and feel that the company\u2019s availability to them is total implies that they will improve their commitment levels and feel an active part of the team.\nThese are the five leadership mistakes that even the best leader would commit. I hope this article helps you to overcome all your mistakes and rebuild your organisation with good skills.\nIf you are a CEO of a company or if you a leader anytime in your life, share your experiences and thoughts in the comment section below.\nWhich is the most memorable thing you have done as a leader?",

        "title": "Ashers bakery 'gay cake' case at UK Supreme Court - AltNewsMedia",
        "raw_content": "UK Politics Politics Business Featured\nTags: Northern Ireland, Freedom of expression, LGBT, Ashers Bakery\nAshers Baking Company, based in County Antrim, Northern Ireland was taken to court in 2014 by a gay rights activist, assisted by Northern Ireland\u2019s tax payer funded Equality Commission.\nGay activist Gareth Lee had specified the motto for an event to mark International Day Against Homophobia. Same-sex marriage is not legally recognised in Northern Ireland as it has been defeated by the DUP who oppose it.\nGay activist Gareth Lee sued Ashers for refusing to ice a message \u2018Support Gay Marriage on a cake.\nHis complaint was that the Bakery refusing to make the cake made him \u201cfeel I\u2019m not worthy, and a lesser person\u201d and to him he felt that was wrong\u201d so he sued them for \u00a3500.\nA judge ruled that Asher\u2019s refusal to make the cake was discriminatory and that the bakery discriminated against Mr Lee on the grounds of his sexuality. Ashers further lost an appeal against that judgement.\nDelivering judgment in the court of appeal on the Ashers case in 2016, Northern Ireland\u2019s lord chief justice, Sir Declan Morgan, said: \u201cThe supplier may provide the particular service to all or to none but not to a selection of customers based on prohibited grounds.\n\u201cIn the present case, the appellants might elect not to provide a service that involves any religious or political message. What they may not do is provide a service that only reflects their own political or religious message in relation to sexual orientation.\u201d\nLee\u2019s order occurred shortly after the DUP used its power of veto in the Northern Ireland assembly to block moves to make same-sex marriage legal in the province. So being that Gay marriage is not legal in Northern Ireland, one wonders how refusing to promote something that was not legal could itself be illegal.\nIf Ashers had refused to serve Gareth Lee because he was gay then that would have been a clear act of discrimination and the bakery\u2019s owners would, rightly, deserve to be prosecuted and fined. But they didn\u2019t, they refused due to the political message he wanted them to out on it. Thy have said they would have made the cake, but not put the iced messaged on.\nDaniel McArthur, director of Ashers Bakery, with his wife Amy\nAt an earlier hearing in a county court, Daniel McArthur, general manager of Ashers Baking Company, explained why the family-run firm turned down Lee\u2019s request for the cake.\n\u201cWe happily serve everyone but we cannot promote a cause that goes against what the Bible says about marriage. We have tried to be guided in our actions by our Christian beliefs,\u201d he said.\nDaniel also said the case had \u201calways been about the message\u201d. \u201cWe didn\u2019t say no because of the customer; we had served him before, we\u2019d serve him again. It was because of the message. \u201cSome people want the law to make us support something with which we disagree.\u201d\nThis week the Supreme Court will hear the case on Tuesday and Wednesday during its first-ever hearings in Northern Ireland. Five supreme court justices will hear the appeal in Belfast: the president, Lady Hale, the deputy president, Lord Mance, Lord Kerr, Lord Hodge and Lady Black.\nIt is expected that the Supreme Court will hear arguments from Attorney General John Larkin QC, who has questioned the validity of the laws used against the company.\nThe hearings at the Royal Courts of Justice will be open to the public and will also be streamed live.\nNo one should be forced to make something to promote something that they disagree with, this should be their fundamental right. Any business should have a right to choose whom it does business with.\nThis case raises very important questions about whether, businesses, groups, institutions or even individuals can be \u2013 or should be \u2013 forced and bullied to accept prevailing political ideas or to make items to promote political messages and if they don\u2019t they are hauled to court.\nI myself fully support any private business that isn\u2019t publicly funded or publicly owned to make its own decisions on who it wants as its customers or clients and to choose for example if it wants to make a certain type of cake,\nIf the Bakery had served Mr Lee before and said it would again, surely this makes this case a political one rather than a personal than one about personal feelings ?\nThe LGBT continually say they we gays shouldn\u2019t be bullied, I agree, but with that, they gays shouldn\u2019t bully others for simply saying what they feel or believe, or for not wanting to do something they don\u2019t feel comfortable doing. We have free speech, which should be whatever anyone wants to say.\nForcing someone to have an opinion that goes against their will is itself a form of extremism\nI\u2019m Matt, I tweet far too much, take far too many photos, play with technology and visit National Trust. I like politics, history and photography. I despair at the current state of politics in this country, both on the Right and the Left. Change is needed desperately. I support freedom of expression, I mock hypocrisy and political correctness. You can follow me on Twitter and Gab at @matthewtoomer\nTHE TERM \u2018GAMMON\u2019 (AND THE PEOPLE THAT USE IT)",

        "raw_content": "More than one billion people around the world are currently suffering from high blood pressure. What\u2019s even more startling is that this number is continuously on the rise.\nIn the last forty years, the number of people who are living with high blood pressure has doubled. This is an alarming statistic, so alarming in fact that doctors and other healthcare professions are trying to find ways that they can help people to be healthier every day. High blood pressure is very serious and could lead to long-term health effects including kidney failure, heart disease, and stroke.\nMany believe that diet is one of the main contributing factors to high blood pressure. They are trying to come up with ways to reduce this problem. This includes an entire line of healthy food and supplement products and too many diet programs to count. However, instead of having to experiment with these many different options, you can take control and read about a few of the best so that you can understand what is going to work best for you and your body type.\nOne such diet is the DASH diet. This is a diet that was specifically designed to target high blood pressure. The overall goal was to decrease high blood pressure in an attempt to reduce the risk of heart disease.\n1 DASH Diet \u2013 What Is It?\n2 Mayo Clinic Diet \u2013 What Is It?\n3 DASH Diet\n3.1 A Look at the Benefits\n3.2 Lower Your Blood Pressure\n3.3 Help You Lose Weight\n4 Decreased Risk of Cancer\n4.1 Lowering Metabolic Syndrome Risks\n4.2 Lowering Risk of Diabetes\n4.3 Reduces Risk of Heart Disease\n5 Who Can Benefit from the DASH Diet?\n5.1 Beware That Too Little Salt Can Be a Bad Thing\n6 What Do I Eat on the DASH Diet?\n6.1 Final Thoughts and Opinions\n7 The Mayo Clinic Diet\n8 Why You Should Consider the Mayo Clinic Diet\n8.1 How Does It Work\n9 Stage #1 \u2013 Lose It!\n10 Stage #2 \u2014 Live It!\n11 Final Thoughts and Opinions\n11.1 My Choice\nDASH Diet \u2013 What Is It?\nDASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. This diet was created for those who were suffering from high blood pressure. It helps people to treat or even prevent hypertension. With the DASH diet, you may be able to reduce the risk of heart disease that you might have not been able to avoid before.\nThe diet focuses on eating whole grains, vegetables, lean meats, and fruits.\nSo the DASH diet uses this knowledge to create an easy to follow a meal plan that is really good for you. This diet emphasizes healthy foods like lean chicken, pork, fish, and lean beef. You eat whole grains, vegetables, and fruits as well. You do not eat much red meat, and you avoid sugar, fat, and salt.\nA lot of scientists believe that the main reason for high blood pressure is the consumption of salt. The hardest part about the DASH diet is that you will not be eating much salt at all. In fact, you eat less than one teaspoon or 2,300 milligrams of sodium each day. This is actually what most of the dietary guidelines suggest, but research suggests that Americans actually consume 3,300 milligrams without adding salt to their food. This estimate grows to around five thousand milligrams of sodium when you add in additional salt.\nIf you are on the low salt version of the DASH program, you are only able to eat three-quarters of a teaspoon per day. This equates to 1,500 milligrams per day.\nMayo Clinic Diet \u2013 What Is It?\nThe Mayo Clinic diet is actually a long-term weight management plan and not a diet. It is not something that you will want to use for a while simply, but instead a lifestyle that you will want to utilize for the rest of your life.\nThis diet was created by an entire team that is dedicated to becoming the leading weight loss experts at the Mayo Clinic. The Mayo Clinic diet was created to help you so that you can change your lifestyle and live your happiest and healthiest life.\nThis plan allows you to basically change your old eating habits with the result of obtaining a great healthy weight that you will be able to maintain for life.\nMany people do not realize that the Mayo Clinic Diet is going to actually help you to lose weight while being able to have long-term success with keeping it off. You will be able to focus on changing your daily routine. This is going to help you to break any unhealthy habits that you currently have. The best part is that if you follow the process, breaking those habits is much easier than it is with other plans. Plus, you will have the advantage of being able to lose weight while following the program.\nIn addition to helping you create healthy new habits as you break old unhealthy ones, the Mayo Clinic diet is going to help you to be able to enjoy eating healthier foods. This focus on fruits and vegetables along with not eating when you are completing specific tasks, like watching TV and being a little more active will all help you live a healthier, more abundant life.\nThere are a wide variety of stressors that can change behaviors with eating. Some people find that they are able to do better by making small and easily attainable goals. These allow them to reduce how frequently they have setbacks while increasing confidence. Additionally, if you have the motivation to lose weight, you are going to be more likely to have success.\nThe DASH diet is one of the newest dieting trends. It is said to be the perfect choice for those who are suffering from high blood pressure. While this diet is ideal for those specific individuals, the jury is still out on whether or not this is the best diet for others not suffering from high blood pressure.\nA Look at the Benefits\nOf course, one of the most significant benefits of the DASH diet is that you are reducing high blood pressure. That being said, there are a lot more benefits that you can find with the diet. Some of these are going to help you to have more success with weight loss. Others are going to help you to be able to reduce your risk of cancer.\nThere are so many diets out there that you might consider for weight loss. The DASH diet is not a diet that is primarily for weight loss. You are not going to shed the pounds without working some magically.\nYou are not going to see dramatic weight loss as you would with some diets. What you will instead see is that you are losing weight at a moderate pace that is going to make it easier to keep off for the long term.\nThe weight loss is really an added secondary perk with the DASH diet. There are a number of additional health benefits that you are going to have thanks to the DASH diet.\nThe most significant benefit of the DASH diet is that it is going to help you to have lower blood pressure. Many people do not understand precisely what blood pressure is. It is the overall measure of the force that is being put on your blood vessels and organs as the blood is moving through them. This is counted with two different numbers: systolic pressure (this is the pressure as your heart beats) and diastolic pressure (this is the pressure when your blood vessels in between the beats of your heart when your heart is resting).\nMost adults have an average blood pressure where the systolic pressure is below 120, and the diastolic pressure is below 80. Blood pressure is written with the systolic pressure above the diastolic pressure as shown here: 120/80. Anyone who has a blood pressure that is 140/90 or higher is considered to have elevated blood pressure.\nThe DASH diet has been shown to lower blood pressure for people regardless of if they had high blood pressure or healthy blood pressure. The only way that this would be a problem is if someone were to have blood pressure that is too low.\nThis could potentially cause them to have some health benefits. Many people who went on the DASH diet chose not to restrict or even reduce their salt intake, and they still saw a lower blood pressure. For those who did not lose weight, their blood pressure was also lower.\nNow, reducing the sodium intake did cause people to have even lower blood pressure. They were able to continue to lower it to a level that was lower than others. The people who had the lowest sodium intake were the ones who were able to reduce the blood pressure the lowest.\nAnother factor to think about is that the DASH diet was the most impressive with people who had higher blood pressure, to begin with. In some people, they were able to reduce the systolic blood pressure by around 12 and the diastolic blood pressure by around 5. Those who had normal or more average blood pressure saw their systolic blood pressure lowering by 4 and their diastolic lowering by 2.\nMany other studies have also shown that you can have reduced blood pressure by reducing salt intake. Of course, those who have higher blood pressure are going to see greater results from this than those who have normal or low blood pressure. One thing to remember though is that just because you were able to lower your blood pressure does not mean that it is going to lower your risks for heart disease. In some people it does, but others have additional problems that would need to be considered before figuring out if they had lowered their blood pressure.\nAnother considerable advantage of the DASH diet is that you are going to lose weight probably. Not everyone ends up losing weight, even though everyone ends up with lower blood pressure. However, you can lower your weight while doing the DASH diet.\nMany people who have high blood pressure are told that they need to lose weight. If you have been told this, then you can combine some weight loss practices like counting caloric intake or even exercise in addition to the DASH diet to have success.\nDid you know that the higher your weight is, the higher your blood pressure is going to be? Many people do not understand that there is a direct correlation between the two. In addition to this, losing weight can actually help you to have lower blood pressure.\nSince some studies have shown the DASH diet to be successful in weight loss, it is one option that is worth exploring. Those individuals who have had success with losing weight on the DASH diet have eaten a diet where they controlled their calories in vs. their calories out. They were eating fewer calories than they were using each day which ultimately led to weight loss.\nMost people seem actually to lose weight easily on the DASH diet. This is mainly because they want to cut back on high-fat options and sugary foods. In fact, many people find that they lose weight without trying just by cutting back on these. This does not mean that everyone simply cuts back on these.\nIn fact, some people continue to struggle since these are large parts of the basic American diet and something that you find everywhere. It can be hard to have enough self-control to not indulge from time to time. However, those who are faced with severe health problems actually seem to do okay with this. So, if you want to lose weight when you are doing the DASH diet, you will have to remember to eat lower-calorie foods as a part of that diet.\nThe DASH diet has actually been linked to reduced cancer risk. A recent study followed people who were on the DASH diet, and the study concluded that those following the DASH diet had lowered their risks of certain cancers. The types of cancers include breast cancer and colorectal cancer. Both of these types of cancer are very common in America.\nLowering Metabolic Syndrome Risks\nIn addition to lowering the risk that you have of developing cancer, the DASH diet can help reduce the risks of metabolic syndrome by up to 81%! This is huge since this is one of the harder things to reduce in the body, especially as we get older and have exposed our bodies to years of abuse and misuse.\nLowering Risk of Diabetes\nDiabetes is a serious condition. In the United States, Type II diabetes often occurs later in life. Much of the reason for this is that people do not eat the way that they should or treat their bodies appropriately.\nBy following the DASH diet, you are actually lowering your risk of Type II diabetes. In addition, you might even improve the body\u2019s insulin resistance. In fact, several studies have concluded that there is a reduced risk of insulin resistance when eating the DASH diet.\nMany people do not realize that the DASH diet can actually help heart health. A study was recently conducted with women who were on the DASH diet. This study showed that these women were able to lower their risk of heart disease by 20%. In addition, they were able to lower their risk of having a stroke. Women who were following the DASH diet actually lowered their stroke risk by 29%.\nThere are so many health benefits that are associated with the DASH diet. It is believed that many of these are in fact because while you are on a diet, you are going to be eating so many additional fruits and vegetables.\nWho Can Benefit from the DASH Diet?\nAnyone can do the DASH diet. If you have any medical concerns, whether it be low blood pressure, high blood pressure, or even if you are obese, you will also want to make sure that you are consulting with a physician before you start the DASH diet.\nThe main benefits of the diet have not been completely discovered, but what is known is that you are likely to reduce your blood pressure when you are partaking in the DASH diet and limiting your sodium intake.\nAnyone who has high blood pressure will see greater results in the lowering of their blood pressure with this diet. They will also see that reducing the salt intake is going to continue to help them.\nOverall, the lower blood pressure will also decrease some of the risks associated with cardiovascular disease. Many people do not realize just how salt sensitive that they are. If you are salt sensitive, then you are going to see a greater increase in your blood pressure when you eat a lot of salt and a greater reduction of your blood pressure when you reduce your salt intake.\nBeware That Too Little Salt Can Be a Bad Thing\nOne thing to remember is that sometimes it might even be possible to be consuming too little sodium. If this happens, you are going to be more likely to actually have medical problems that are associated with low sodium levels. In fact, a sodium level that is too low can be linked to cardiovascular disease, fluid retention, and insulin resistance.\nEven the lowest sodium version of the DASH diet requires people to eat at least 1500 mg per day of sodium. This is equivalent to a \u00be teaspoon. So, you actually have to be careful when eating the DASH diet to reduce your overall amounts of sodium but to maintain a certain level still to ensure that you are not going to have adverse related health effects.\nAnother thing to consider is that scientific evidence does not really show advantages with a difference in sodium intake of 1500 mg and 2000 mg. In fact, you get the same benefits at 1500 as you do at 2000, so you might as well allow yourself to have the 2000 mg. Even though a reduction in salt intake has been linked to lower blood pressure, a recent study concluded that eating reduced salt is not shown to have any benefit with heart disease.\nWhat Do I Eat on the DASH Diet?\nYou probably want to know what you are going to be eating if you are on the DASH diet. One nice thing about this diet is that it is not going to require you to eat a lot of specific foods. In fact, there are no specifics for what you are going to eat. Instead, you look at the food group and attempt to hit target amounts of specific groups of foods. There are some guidelines you should follow, but this system is one of the easiest to follow.\nThe amounts of foods that you eat will be based on the overall caloric intake for each day. The following is specific servings allowed based on a 2,000 calorie diet.\nWhole Grains, 6-8 Servings Each Day \u2013 There are many great ways that you can get servings of whole grains. Some of these include whole grain breads, whole wheat breads, whole grain cereals, bulgur wheat, brown rice, oatmeal, and quinoa.\nVegetables, 4-5 Servings Each Day \u2013 One of the great things about the DASH diet is that all vegetables are allowed. You can eat any vegetable that you want as you are trying to reach your vegetable serving count each day.\nFruits, 4-5 Servings Each Day \u2013 When you are on the DASH diet, you should be prepared to eat a lot of fruit as well. You can eat whatever fruit you like, and you can eat four or five servings each day. It is important to understand what servings are when consuming fruit and remember that fresh fruit is generally better for you than fruit juice or blended fruit smoothies, that being said you can always make your smoothies!\nDairy Products, 2-3 Servings Each Day \u2013 There is one main guideline that you should follow with dairy on the DASH. You need to make sure that the dairy that you are choosing is low-fat.\nLean Chicken, Meat, and Fish, 6 or Less Servings Each Day \u2013 There are actually quite a few guidelines when it comes to meat. You will want to avoid red meat. Red meat should be eaten no more than two times each week. In addition, you should know that serving sizes of meat are very small in the DASH diet, so study these guidelines to ensure that you have the highest level of success.\nNuts, Legumes, and Seeds, 4-5 Servings Each Week \u2013 Things like nuts, seeds, and legumes have to be minimal during the DASH diet. In fact, you will only be consuming these four or five times each week. This means that you will be eating them less than one time each day. You should consider foods like almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, walnuts, flaxseeds, lentils, kidney beans, sunflower seeds, and split peas when looking for the best choices.\nOils and Fats, 2-3 Servings Each Day \u2013 There are many different rules with the DASH diet. You will be able to consume two or three servings of fats. The diet actually recommends vegetable based oils over other choices. What is recommended are margarine, canola oil, corn oil, safflower oil, and olive oil. You can have light salad dressing or low-fat mayonnaise as well.\nAdded Sugars or Candies, 5 or Less Servings Each Week \u2013 Sugars really have to be monitored on the DASH diet. This is one of the hardest things for most people to limit because sugar is addicting. In fact, it has been proven by science that sugar is more addictive than many drugs including tobacco.\nTrying to quit sugar can be torture and really hard, but over time it gets way easier. Limiting the amount of candy, soft drinks, and other sugars that you consume is going to help you to kick these cravings. The DASH diet actually restricts the sugars that are unrefined and alternative sugar sources.\nThere are so many things that we could say about the DASH diet. While it does show some health benefits for those suffering from high blood pressure, it seems to be a little too restrictive for our liking. It is also contradictory to a lot of new research that is being done in areas like dairy and sodium.\nMany new studies are showing that low-fat dairy is actually worse for your health and weight gain than healthy fat alternatives. So, there needs to be a little more exploration for us before we hop on the DASH diet bandwagon.\nThe Mayo Clinic Diet is one of the most well thought out diet plans out there today. This plan was actually created by a large group of doctors who wanted to ensure that their patients were eating right and doing the right things for their health.\nIt is a great plan for you to consider and one that is going to continue to make you feel great if you are following it. Best of all is that it teaches you habits that you will be able to keep with you for life. By doing this, you will lose tons of weight and have an easier time maintaining that weight loss and avoiding additional weight gain in the future.\nWhy You Should Consider the Mayo Clinic Diet\nMany people do not realize that they need to make a change. For those who do, it can be emotional turmoil to try and find the plan that is going to work for you. In fact, so many people struggle that they decide to give up and move on. Being able to find the right diet plan or new lifestyle does not have to feel like torture. In fact, it can be something that is simple that everyone can do.\nThere are actually a number of reasons that you might want to consider trying out the Mayo Clinic Diet. These include:\nBeing able to follow a plan that was created by medical professionals, not weight loss \u201cexperts\u201d who have no education or schooling on health.\nAppreciating that you are NEVER hungry with the Mayo Clinic Diet. This diet allows you to have unlimited amounts of fruits and vegetables. Plus, you get generous servings at meals as well which helps you to stay full and never have to worry about being hungry again.\nTrying to adopt a new healthier lifestyle. The healthy lifestyle habits are really going to improve the overall quality of life. You are going to be living the life that you have always wanted while feeling at your optimal health.\nActually improving your health. In addition to improving how you feel, your body will start to become healthier. This leads to a number of reduced health risks. As you become more active and stick to eating the recommended foods, you are going to have an increase in your overall health, even at the doctor\u2019s office.\nWanting something that you will actually use for life. This is a plan that you are going to feel satisfied with making your new lifestyle choices around.\nOf course, as with all diet and exercise plans, you should check with your doctor before you begin. You will want to ask about any specifics that you should watch for if you have health issues or concerns.\nThe Mayo Clinic Diet works because it is based upon a diet that was actually developed through extensive research by those who are at the forefront of health and nutrition at the Mayo Clinic.\nThis diet combines both clinical experience and research to give you a full two-part plan that allows you to lose all desired weight and maintain that goal weight for life.\nIt is actually the best program out there for sticking to a new lifestyle and adopting healthier daily habits. Overall, the diet will be tailored to your own personal needs and your health history. This means that the plan is not going to be the same for any two individuals. This plan looks at you as the person that you are, not just part of who are.\nThere are two main parts of the Mayo Clinic Diet. They are Lose It! and Live It!. Read on to understand both stages of the diet fully.\nStage #1 \u2013 Lose It!\nThe Lose It! phase is going to help you to jump-start your own personal weight loss. It will help you to lose the first six to ten pounds quickly and in a way that is both healthy and safe. During this phase, you start to learn about the things that you are doing that are keeping you overweight. You learn about the lifestyle habits that are associated with a healthy weight. You even learn simple tips and tricks that are going to help you to be successful as you uproot your current life on your journey to optimal health.\nDuring this stage, you are going to learn how to add five healthy habits. These actually help you to break five unhealthy habits. Then you are ready to adopt a second set of five healthy habits. When you are doing this, you get a boost psychologically that will help you to continue. You will carry this confidence into the next stage.\nStage #2 \u2014 Live It!\nThis phase is where you are going to learn how to be Mayo Clinic diet liver. This means that you are going to continue living this lifestyle forever and you are not going to stop because you have reached your goal weight. In fact, you will be able to learn how to utilize the skills that helped you lose weight to maintain your health for years to come.\nYou will learn how to make the best food choices. This will allow you to eat anywhere, even at restaurants or parties while still living your healthy lifestyle.\nYou will learn how to cut portion sizes and how to eat healthy amounts of foods. Many people do not realize that the majority of the problem that they have is in how much they are eating, not what they are eating. You also learn how to plan a menu, how much physical activity your body needs, how to plan the right exercise routine, and how to stick to healthier habits.\nYou will continue to lose weight at the rate of about one or two pounds per week. So, you are going to reach your goal at a slow pace but at a pace that allows you to keep the weight off for good.\nOne of the things that makes the Mayo Clinic Diet such a great choice is that you are able to lose weight and keep it off. If your real goal is to lose weight then adopting this lifestyle is going to be very important to you.\nIt is a diet that you can stick to for life and one that is going to really help you to feel your best and maintain optimal health. I would highly recommend this diet that allows you to adopt a healthy lifestyle rather than restricting what you can or can not eat.\nUnless you are suffering from high blood pressure, you should probably consider the Mayo Clinic Diet in our opinion. This is a diet that is solid and offers you the ability to do more than momentarily meat your goals.\nIt is a choice for everyone who is trying to get their health in order. The DASH Diet is more likely to be a short-term diet. This means that you are not going to hit some weight loss or fitness goals and probably deter off of the diet.\nWith the Mayo Clinic diet, you will adopt a new lifestyle that will help you to stay conscious of your health and wellness for years to come!\nThe Mayo Clinic Diet vs. Weight Watchers: Which Is Best?",

        "raw_content": "President Trump has advocated for reciprocal trade\u2014i.e. equal imports and exports with another country\u2014since first taking office in 2017. Now, the White House is pushing a new bill that would give the president expanded authority over trade policy and the power to enact reciprocal tariffs.\nTariffs increase costs for both American producers and consumers. This analysis finds that imposing a new reciprocal trade policy through equal tariffs on our current trade partners could increase nationwide prices by over $60 billion per year, not counting the cost of retaliation.\nReciprocal tariffs would be a significant blow to the U.S. economy. The most effective way to lower trade barriers facing U.S. exporters is not to impose additional tariffs, but to enter into cooperative trade agreements with other nations.\nThe Problem with Reciprocal Tariffs\nSince his election, President Trump has touted \u201cfree, fair, and reciprocal trade\u201d as one of the primary goals of his administration. New White House-backed legislation was recently introduced in the House of Representatives to achieve this aim\u2014namely, by dramatically expanding presidential authority over trade policy. The legislation, called the Reciprocal Trade Act, would impose new trade barriers in an effort to improve the trade balance. The reality, however, is that restricting international trade has a clear cost to both American consumers and businesses, who are forced to bear the brunt of any new tariffs.\nReciprocal trade in principle would suggest that the United States buys from another country the exact same dollar amount that it sells, resulting in a bilateral trade balance of zero. There are several problems with this goal. First, the world is not made up just two nations. Americans benefit from having the choice of 200 countries to trade with, making bilaterally balanced trade nearly impossible and effectively meaningless. Second, the efficiency gains and economic growth generated by trade is a direct result of comparative advantage. Each nation produces and sells what it is best at making, ensuring that the productivity of U.S. companies increases and consumers enjoy the widest choice of goods and services at the lowest cost. The reality of comparative advantage does not produce balanced trade, but it does better our standard of living.\nIn the case of trade barriers, reciprocal trade implies that the tariffs and non-tariff barriers of one country are identical to that of another. Because the United States has relatively low trade barriers compared to the rest of the world, the outcome of reciprocal trade would be a drastic increase in U.S. tariffs. The economic harm caused by tariffs has been shown numerous times and in numerous different ways: They increase prices, decrease capital expenditures and investment, inspire retaliation from our trading partners, and slow economic growth. In this way, reciprocal trade would be a significant blow to the U.S. economy.\nCalculating the Cost of Reciprocal Tariffs\nWhat impact might a policy of reciprocal trade have in practice? The simplest result would be the United States increasing its tariffs to match those of other nations. The Mercatus Center estimates that this policy would increase the total number of products faced with U.S. tariffs by a factor of 10, from around 3,000 to nearly 30,000. A more worrying possibility is that the United States would increase tariffs to even higher levels than its partners, attempting to capture the impact of non-tariff barriers on U.S. exports. Because the latter is very difficult to quantify, the following analysis aims to answer this question by examining tariff rates only.\nTo see the potential impact that reciprocal tariffs would have on the United States, this analysis applies product-specific Most-Favored Nation (MFN) tariff rates of U.S. trading partners to current import levels. MFN rates for each country are negotiated upon entrance to the World Trade Organization (WTO) and represent the tariffs that WTO members levy on one another. This analysis compares the difference between U.S. tariff rates per product group (as defined by 2-digit HS codes[i]) and those of our trading partners, and then applies the difference to the dollar value of imports in 2017.[ii] If the trading partner has higher tariff rates, the U.S. rate is assumed to rise to an equal level\u2014the assumed outcome of a reciprocal tariff policy. Import levels were taken from the U.S. Census Bureau, and MFN tariff rates were retrieved from the WTO. No reciprocal tariffs are applied to goods traded through current trade agreements, for which there are zero tariffs applied to U.S. exports.[iii]\nBecause the United States engages in trade with over 200 countries or geographic areas in any given year, this analysis focuses only on the top U.S. trading partners. Specifically, it analyzes the potential effect of reciprocal tariffs on the United States\u2019 16 top trading partners, which together make up about 80 percent of U.S. trade.[iv]\nAssuming that current import levels remain unchanged and 100 percent of the cost of the tariff is passed on to consumers, the following table displays the increased costs Americans can expect to face from the imposition of reciprocal tariffs. Because American businesses would likely absorb a portion of the tariffs as well, this analysis produces a potential magnitude, not an exact cost. Even given this caveat, however, it is still a realistic total for what consumers could face: In addition to a direct increase in consumer costs, tariffs increase production costs for businesses, which in turn decrease production and investment and have significant ripple effects throughout the economy. One way or another, tariffs fall back on American consumers.\nAn Excel sheet with the calculations used can be found here.\nCountry 2017 Import Levels (Billions $) Cost of U.S. Reciprocal Tariff (Millions $)\nChina 506 B 35,332 M\nMexico 131 B* 4,190 M\nCanada 169 B* 486 M\nJapan 137 B 65 M\nGermany 118 B 1,520 M\nSouth Korea 38 B* 1,517 M\nUnited Kingdom 53 B 632 M\nItaly 50 B 548 M\nFrance 49 B 546 M\nIreland 49 B 259 M\nIndia 49 B 4,365 M\nVietnam 47 B 4,774 M\nTaiwan 43 B 989 M\nMalaysia 37 B 1,091 M\nThailand 31 B 2,021 M\nBrazil 30 B 1,862 M\nTotal 1,535 B 60,196 M\n*Excludes imports traded under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement (KORUS)\nThis analysis finds that imposing reciprocal trade measures can be expected to raise nationwide prices in the United States by $60 billion annually, or approximately $471 per household per year. The highest cost would come from tariffs on China, from which the United States imports over $500 billion annually. Similarly high costs would result from reciprocal tariffs on Mexico, India, Vietnam, and Thailand, all of which are emerging markets that tend to have higher tariffs than developed countries such as the United States.\nIt is worth noting that there was no available tariff data for an additional $60 billion of combined imports from the above countries. Therefore, the above calculation is an underestimation of the total upward pressure that would be placed on prices. Furthermore, history suggests that our trading partners would likely retaliate against any reciprocal tariffs: Canada, Mexico, China, and other nations retaliated dollar for dollar against U.S. exports following the imposition of national security tariffs on steel and aluminum, and China retaliated further after U.S. tariffs were enacted to combat intellectual property theft.\nReducing trade barriers facing U.S. exports is a noble goal. Reciprocal trade, however, is not the answer: Not only will reciprocal tariffs hurt U.S. consumers and increase manufacturing costs in the United States, but they will also raise global tensions and further escalate trade wars. Instead, the United States should aim to reduce as many tariffs and non-tariff barriers as possible through cooperative trade agreements.\n[i] The Harmonized System Classification sorts products into specific groupings, for which unique tariff rates apply.\n[ii] The increase in U.S. tariff level expected from reciprocal tariffs is defined by the foreign country\u2019s MFN tariff rate minus the U.S. MFN tariff rate\n[iii] The trade agreements in question are the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement (KORUS). The dollar value of goods traded under these agreements is available from the U.S. International Trade Commission\u2019s DataWeb. To determine the dollar value of goods not traded under these agreements, and thus subject to reciprocal tariffs, we subtract the value of imports from Canada, Mexico, and South Korea traded under the agreements from the total value of imports from those nations.\n[iv]Switzerland, the United States\u2019 15th top trading partner in 2017, was excluded due to limited available tariff data.\nThe Cost of Steel and Aluminum Tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and the European Union\nExecutive Summary The Trump Administration announced that national security tariffs on steel and aluminum will extend to Canada, Mexico, and the European\u2026\nThe Impact of Chinese Retaliatory Tariffs\nJacqueline Varas, Finn Reynolds\nIn term of absolute dollars, Louisiana, Washington, and Texas will have the most exports facing new tariffs.

        "raw_content": "William Hogan was a pack rat. He started collecting materials on the global iron and steel industry as a young Jesuit priest, and by the time he died some 50 years later he had amassed an unparalleled collection of materials. He left the collection to Fordham University in New York City, where he spent half a century teaching. The index alone to the more than 130 boxes of materials\u0097known as the Hogan Steel Archives\u0097consists of a single-spaced 196-page document.\nThe \u0093Steel Priest\u0094 was perhaps the best-known iron and steel economist of his time, and his books are still widely read by industry executives and scholars. Along the way, Hogan met everyone\u0097perhaps literally\u0097in the domestic iron and steel industry.\nBorn in Bronx, N.Y., in 1919, Hogan graduated from James Monroe High School and sold newspapers during the Great Depression. He commuted to Fordham, where he earned bachelor\u0092s and master\u0092s degrees in economics, and he was ordained as a Jesuit priest in the 1940s. Hogan returned to Fordham to complete his doctorate in economics. His dissertation was a study of steel productivity, and during several semesters at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh he worked at U.S. Steel Corp. to get an up-close-and-personal look at productivity in the industry.\nYears later, Hogan recalled meeting with U.S. Steel\u0092s vice president of engineering to try to convince him that a study of industry productivity would be of value. The executive agreed, and Hogan spent two years at U.S. Steel, studying productivity and wage and labor issues. He joined Fordham\u0092s Economics Department for the 1950-51 school year, and his dissertation was published as Productivity in the Blast-Furnace and Open-Hearth Segments of the Steel Industry, the first detailed study of steel productivity. The U.S. Labor Department was so impressed with Hogan\u0092s work that it adopted his methods of productivity measurements.\nAfter several years of religious formation, Hogan rejoined Fordham\u0092s economics department in 1956. He founded Fordham\u0092s Industrial Economics Research Institute and used it as a platform to develop a research and teaching program in industrial economics. Hogan\u0092s innovative curriculum was eventually incorporated into the economic courses at more than 100 colleges and universities in 30 states. In his teachings, Hogan stressed the size and complexity of basic heavy industry as well as the labor and capital inputs needed to support the organization of businesses. Hogan was famous for using concrete examples from his own contacts and research to illustrate what he called \u0093a supplement to courses in economic theory\u0094 that \u0093gives students more opportunity to check theoretical principles against real-world business practices.\u0094\nHogan\u0092s early lectures were published in 1954 in his second book, The Development of American Heavy Industry in the Twentieth Century. By the mid-1950s, he had developed his theory concerning the interdependence of the steel, automobile, railroad, petroleum and utility industries, and through the Industrial Economics Research Institute he explored that groundbreaking observation. Hogan also saw to it that the institute provided internships to hundreds of Fordham students, many of whom went on to positions in steel and U.S. heavy industry.\nIn the 1960s, Hogan devoted much of his research efforts to his great passion: the history of the iron and steel industry. The 1971 publication of the landmark, five-volume Economic History of the Iron and Steel Industry in the United States established Hogan as the nation\u0092s premier scholar of the iron and steel industry.\nFollowing the publication of his magnum opus, Hogan continued publishing landmark studies on the industry, including The 1970s: Critical Years for Steel (1972); World Steel in the 1980s: A Case of Survival (1982); Steel in the United States: Restructuring to Compete (1984); Minimills and Integrated Mills: A Comparison of Steelmaking in the United States (1987); Global Steel in the 1990s: Growth or Decline (1990); Capital Investment in Steel: A World Plan for the 1990s (1992); Steel in the 21st Century: Competition Forges a New World Order (1994); The Steel Industry of China: Its Present Status and Future Potential (1999); and The Posco Strategy: A Blueprint for World Steel\u0092s Future (2001).\nDuring the 50 years Hogan spent at Fordham, he visited the vast majority of the world\u0092s steel-producing facilities, delivered hundreds of papers at steel conferences\u0097he attended every annual meeting of the International Iron and Steel Institute for 34 consecutive years\u0097and often advised management at steel companies.\nIn the late 1960s, he served as a member of President Nixon\u0092s Task Force on Business Taxation and was a consultant to the presidential Council of Economic Advisors. During the 1960s and 1970s, he was frequently called to Washington to testify on such topics as tax depreciation in the steel industry. During the 1980s and 1990s, he served as a visiting professor at both Pennsylvania State University and Purdue University in Indiana.\nThe American Iron and Steel Institute awarded Hogan the prestigious Gary Memorial Medal, citing his \u0093uniquely distinguished contributions to knowledge that have advanced understanding of the iron and steel industry;\u0094 the Association of Iron and Steel Engineers established the William T. Hogan Annual Lecture Series in his honor in 1990; and Fordham awarded him an honorary doctor of law degree in 1996.\nHogan retired from teaching in 2001. He died the following year at the age of 82, having never lost the common touch.\nFather George McCauley, who taught theology and religion at Fordham, wrote in a profile of Hogan that \u0093he had a vast, direct knowledge of the industry\u0092s intricate workings, from the smelter crews, ironmakers and sheet rollers he\u0092d meet on the mill floor to executives who welcomed him into lofty offices. Miraculously, he had the trust of both steel producers and steel importers. Government officials, too, knew they were getting the real goods when Father Hogan came before them.\u0094",

The \u201cgood old days\u201d of the 5 & 10 cent store that later became the 25 & 50 cent store and now are again the 5 & 10 (but dollars instead of cents) are gone forever. I can think of nothing but stamp collecting that can be indulged today for pennies. The old \u201cnickel rocket\u201d baseball is now $2.00. The golf club that charged $75 a year is now $475. Movies in center city are $4.50 and up.\nOnly in stamp collecting are some things available for pennies. Yes, thousands of stamps can be bought for less than a dime each and best of all, included in this bonanza are some of the world\u2019s most interesting varieties. While it is doubtful if these lower-priced stamps can be obtained individually at such low prices, in collections and groups practically all are available.\nThis means that stamp collecting can be introduced to newcomers at a lower cost of any similar hobby. It doesn\u2019t imply that valuable collections can be formed for a few cents but certainly that they can be developed into potentially exhibitable properties, not to compete in rarity but to attract the attention of others to a project worth understanding and developing. Most stamp firms could not exist solely on the income from small sales. They must develop a rarity trade and business volume to provide the profit margin required. However, small buyers who understand the economics of these items can, by judiciously accumulating their funds until a sizeable purchase can be made, find many stamp dealers anxious for their trade.",

        "raw_content": "Dr. GP has retired, closed his practice, and lost his memory. What he didn\u2019t lose was the $150,000 of unpaid payroll taxes or the $500,000 of unpaid personal income taxes. When he and his wife showed up at our office they were five years behind in filing personal income tax returns. The doctor barely knew his own name. Mrs. GP, although sound mentally, had never written a check in her life and English was her second language. She was desperate for help as a \u201cgovernment lady\u201d was after her and the good doctor.\nMrs. GP explained that her husband tried to treat his patients and to keep his staff working, but the degenerative nature of his dementia had eroded his ability to deal with simple daily tasks over the last several years. She was never involved in his medical practice and was unaware of the state of their finances.\nUltimately, we determined that during his and his practice\u2019s decline the doctor had dissipated most of their assets while trying to maintain their pre-dementia life. They were eligible for Social Security and had a small pension, this was the extent of their income. They were willing to sell their paid-for home, but would need the proceeds to supplement their income due to their medical needs. They also owned a summer home, which was a real sticking point as it was owned without a mortgage. The problem was that it needed repairs to meet code and be salable. The taxpayers didn\u2019t have the money to make the repairs.\nThe \u201cgovernment lady\u201d turned out to be Revenue Officer Morticia. She levied the taxpayer\u2019s pension and Social Security. If the taxpayer\u2019s adult children \u2013 living in a distant state \u2013 had not assisted Dr. and Mrs. GP, the couple would have been forced to forego medical care and food.\nR.O. Morticia believed the taxpayer to be a tax scofflaw and our protest of dire economic hardship fell on the unsympathetic ears of both the R.O. and her Group Manager. After complying with the R.O.\u2019s demand (within 3 weeks) for the five unfiled returns, she continued to deny our request to lift the levies.\nAs practitioners, we all need to be aware of our alternatives when confronted with a difficult IRS case being pursued by a relentless Revenue Officer. This case left no option but to request intervention by the taxpayer\u2019s congressman.\nI researched the contact information for the taxpayer\u2019s congressman and sent a letter requesting his intervention. The letter was addressed to the congressman\u2019s constituent services manager. Within fifteen business days the Taxpayer Advocate\u2019s Office was involved, the levies were lifted, and we were able to commence negotiations with the Offer in Compromise Unit. Our offer was to allow the taxpayers to sell their home, use the proceeds to repair the summer home, and retain the remaining proceeds for living expenses. Thereafter, under the offer and a collateral agreement, the IRS would receive the net proceeds from the sale of the summer home. A good result for all.\nHere\u2019s what you need to consider when faced with a difficult case that cannot be resolved by conventional means:\n1. Is the taxpayer\u2019s situation being handled unfairly considering their circumstances?\n2. Can you document attempts to resolve a case through normal channels?\n3. Has the case dragged on despite your efforts to resolve the matter?\n4. Is there a lack of necessary information or explanation from the IRS?\n5. Has the IRS mishandled aspects of the case?\nHere\u2019s the steps to take to make the Congressional Referral:\n1. Address the taxpayer\u2019s congressman, not yours.\n2. Start with the taxpayer\u2019s representative, not his Senator.\n3. On the congressman\u2019s website, locate the Constituent Services page.\n4. Print the release form and have the taxpayer sign it.\n5. Mail, the following:\na. Cover letter to Casework Manager describing the need for assistance and result sought,\nb. Congressman\u2019s Release Form,\nc. Copies of pertinent documents and IRS Notices, and\nd. Your Power of Attorney.\n6. Call the Casework Manager once sufficient time has elapsed for him to review your submission.\n7. Await contact from the IRS.\nThe Casework Manager will forward the matter to the IRS who will assign it as part of the Congressional Affairs Program wherein the IRS Legislative Affairs office will refer it to the Taxpayer Advocate. The case will be carefully monitored to assure it receives elevated attention. I recommend use of a congressional sparingly as its power is diminished if you constantly cry \u201cthe sky is falling\u201d admonition.\nCongressmen may only work cases for their own constituents. Locate the proper congressman for your taxpayer at: www.house.gov/representative/find. Further information may be found in IRM 13.1.8.",

The Prosper (Texas) Independent School District has unveiled the design for a $48 million, 12,000-capacity stadium and natatorium.\nThe school system, about 30 miles north of Dallas in Collin County, says the facility is scheduled to open in August 2019, the same year that Prosper High School becomes a 6A school\u2014the classification for the state's largest schools.\nRelated: Cost of high school football stadium rises to $70 million\nThe stadium will be situated west of the high school. The facility also is intended to serve as home for the district's future high schools. The second high school in the Prosper district is scheduled to open in 2020.\nThe district points out that although the facility is scheduled to cost $48 million, the price tag is significantly smaller than stadiums other Texas districts have built.\nRelated: The most expensive high school stadium?\n\"We have designed a facility that will meet the needs of [the district] for many years to come while engineering it in a way that comes in at price tag $15 million to $20 million less expensive than recent similar projects in the metroplex and across the state,\" the district says on its web site.\nThe costs of the stadiums being built in the McKinney and Katy districts are at least $70 million.\nThe community has been waiting many years for a new stadium. Voters approved a $710 million bond proposal in 2007, and plans called for the stadium to be built around 2010. However, the economic recession of 2008 put a snag in those plans, and Prosper officials devoted its capital resources to adding classroom space to keep up with enrollment growth\u2014the district has been doubling its enrollment every five years and now has about 11,000 students.\nA pause in school construction gives the district an opportunity to move forward with the stadium.\n\"Since we are not opening any new schools this year due to the uncertainty of public school funding, we have a window to insert these facilities that are needed and long overdue but do not carry any significant staffing costs as do schools,\" the district says. \"We have stretched the use of our existing stadium as far as possible given our growth.\"\nThe architect for the stadium is Huckabee.\nVideo from Huckabee: A simulation of plans for the new sports facility in the Prosper district:\nTAGS: New Construction Funding Bond Issues",

The extraction comes with a price: The grasslands where those oil wells sit are a delicate and threatened ecosystem and the construction isn\u2019t boding well for the birds that live there, according to recent research conducted by U.S. Geological Survey.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot that\u2019s unknown about [fracking\u2019s effect on] the Bakken,\u201d says Sarah Thompson, a USGS scientist. \u201cIt\u2019s new and it\u2019s happening really quickly.\u201d\nFrom 2012 through 2014 Thompson and her team surveyed 1,900 acres of land spread across seven counties in northwest North Dakota, counting and identifying any birds they observed in the transformed landscape. Fracking has turned the flat, formerly green expanses of North Dakota into a patchwork of deep red gravel well pads. Each pad is stacked with storage tanks and jacks for pumping oil, and new gravel roads support heavy truck traffic. Natural gas flares burn into the night.\n\u201cEveryone could guess that they\u2019re not going to inhabit the gravel well pad,\u201d Thompson says. \u201cBut the question was: How far out into the \u2018undisturbed habitat\u2019 were birds sensing there was a disturbance?\u201d\nAfter years of surveying the bird populations, the researchers concluded that most bird species are avoiding not only the infrastructure itself, but also the surrounding habitat\u2014in some areas by a distance of more than two football fields. In areas within 500 feet of a multi-bore fracking site, or 875 feet from a single-bore one, bird density dropped by 33 percent. (Multi-bore sites, with bores packed together to minimize total land destruction, are a relatively new concept\u2014and researchers don\u2019t yet know the specifics of why the birds appear willing to get closer to them.)\nThree species, the Baird\u2019s Sparrow, Chestnut-collared Longspur, and Grasshopper Sparrow, stayed as far as 1,800 feet from single-bore wells.\n\u201cGrassland birds do not generally respond well to the introduction of non-grassland habitat,\u201d says Jason Hill, a Vermont Center for Ecostudies researcher who\u2019s studied grassland birds near unconventional oil wells. \u201cThey are grassland birds for a reason.\u201d\nBut cause-and-effect threats associated with the bird declines are still unclear. Drilling structures likely provide more abundant perching spots for predatory birds. Habitat destruction reduces food availability. Dust and noise from construction trucks scare wildlife away. \u201cIt might be the birds don\u2019t enjoy taking a dust bath every five minutes,\u201d Hill says. \u201cIt may be that it\u2019s harder for them to find food. [That kind of research] is what\u2019s critically needed.\u201d\nStill, Thompson\u2019s paper does point to at least one potential improvement: The new method of consolidating multiple bores into one well pad is likely to cut down on land use, and would be an attractive financial option for oil companies that need to lease any land they use, Hill says.\nMany of these species are under significant stress even without the oil fields. Half of the 10 species Thompson spotted most frequently are seriously threatened by climate change, according to Audubon\u2019s Birds and Climate Change Report. The North Dakota Game and Fish Department considers several species to be of high conservation priority, including the Sprague\u2019s Pipit, which has been a candidate for Endangered Species Act protection since 2010. In its most recent decision the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ruled that oil and gas infrastructure doesn\u2019t pose a threat to the birds\u2019 survival.\nGrassland birds have already lost significant space to wind farms and industrial agriculture. That means any help toward preserving the habitat they have left would be welcome. \u201cIt isn't really that any specific threat is particularly damaging,\u201d Thompson says. \u201cIt is the cumulative impact of many threats.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Statement of the Center for Auto Safety on the Death of Executive Director Clarence M. Ditlow III\nAuto Defects, Press Releases 7,517 Views\nClarence M. Ditlow, III, the Executive Director of the Center for Auto Safety since 1976, died on November 10 at the George Washington University Hospital in Washington. He was 72 years old.\nSpanning four decades, his work forced the auto industry to make vast improvements in the safety, reliability and fuel efficiency of the vehicles on which Americans depend daily.\nHis accomplishments included safety recalls of tens of millions of vehicles that saved untold thousands of lives, and lemon laws in all 50 states. Since the center was founded in 1970, the death rate on America\u2019s roads has dropped dramatically, from 5.2 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled in 1969 to 1.1 per 100 million vehicle miles in 2010. Ralph Nader and Consumers Union established the Center to provide consumers a voice for auto safety and quality in Washington and to help owners of \u201clemon\u201d vehicles fight back across the country.\nUnder Mr. Ditlow, the Center played a major role in these recalls, among others: 6.7 million Chevrolets for defective engine mounts, 15 million Firestone 500 tires, 1.5 million Ford Pintos for exploding gas tanks, and 3 million Evenflo child seats for defective latches.\nIn the past seven years alone, the Center was the primary force behind the recalls of 7 million Toyotas for sudden acceleration, 2 million Jeeps for fuel tank fires, 11 million GM vehicles for defective ignition switches, and more than 60 million faulty Takata airbag inflators.\nAt one of the Center\u2019s first staff meetings, Mr. Nader made the installation of air bags a key early goal. It took approximately 20 years to accomplish it, but they are now standard in all vehicles.\nThe Center\u2019s projects include the Safe Climate Campaign, founded in 2008 to advocate more efficient, less-polluting vehicles to fight global warming.\nMr. Ditlow and other representatives of the Center testified more than 50 times before congressional committees regarding auto safety, warranties and service bulletins, air pollution, consumer protection and fuel economy. Under Mr. Ditlow, the Center for Auto Safety became the leader consumer advocate pressing for passage of the 1975 Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the fuel economy provisions of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, which established the first Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) standards, and the disclosure to consumers of automotive technical service bulletins, which auto companies send to dealers alerting them to hazardous conditions in their cars.\nSaluting his work, Sens. Ed Markey, D-Mass., and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said in a statement in the Congressional Record of Sept. 29, 2016:\n\u201cThrough a lifetime of work improving automotive and safety laws, Mr. Ditlow has helped save thousands of lives and prevented many more injuries than would otherwise have occurred. A tireless champion for consumers, his work has resulted in better government oversight of automakers, the installation of key safety features, and the exposure of safety defects in millions of cars, SUVs and other trucks\u2026.Mr. Ditlow\u2019s discovery of numerous automotive defects, combined with his persistent pressure on safety agencies and automakers alike, led to the removal of many unsafe vehicles from the road.\u201d\nMr. Ditlow was the author or co-author of multiple books and other publications on auto safety, air pollution and transportation including The Lemon Book, Lemon Law Litigation Manual, Little Secrets of the Auto Industry, and Sudden Acceleration. He updated and edited each year the Automobile Design Liability manual, a six-volume work published annually by ThomsonReuters under its Westlaw imprint. He also supervised the annual publication of The Car Book, which presents the latest safety ratings, dealer prices, fuel economy, insurance premiums, and maintenance costs for new vehicles.\nMr. Ditlow served on the boards of Consumers Union, Friends of the Earth, Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety, and the Automobile Protection Association.\nMr. Ditlow, whose father was a Chevrolet service manager in Harrisburg, Pa., was graduated from Lehigh University with a degree in chemical engineering. He was also a graduate of Georgetown Law School and earned a master of laws degree from Harvard Law School. His Washington career began as a patent examiner with the U.S. Patent Office in 1965. He later joined Mr. Nader\u2019s Public Interest Research Group as a staff lawyer.\nMichael Brooks, Center for Auto Safety\nO: 202-328-7700 x 113\nDan Becker, Director, Safe Climate Campaign.\nhttps://www.autosafety.org/statement-of-the-center-for-auto-safety-on-the-death-of-executive-director-clarence-m-ditlow-iii\">",

        "raw_content": "Topic: MPAA & \"Hard R\" Rating\nAuthor Topic: MPAA & \"Hard R\" Rating (Read 11030 times)\nI am sure and I am right. It was all made up. A lot of movie websites reported it but it was fake. There's even a video interview with Paul Anderson on one movie site where he said it was never R Rated to begin with and no footage had been cut out.\ni hate the fact that people keep saying that AVP is a stand alone movie and i know Anderson said the same thing but how can it!!!. it uses the 2 monsters from the other movies and use the same mythology\nplus he ( Anderson ) tries to connect the movie to the Alien universe!! so he contradicts on what he says!!\nRIJOENPIAL\nEvil is the total lack of empathy\nwhat i mean by 'standalone movie' is this: a movie who may well use two or more characters from other movies but that does not affect directly the mythos or continuity NEGATIVELY...Paul's AVP does add to the mythos but does not affect it on a negative side...the only two aspects that could affect Alien continuity is the setting (earth, although the remote, CLASSIFIED setting safeguarded Alien continuity) and Charles Bishop Weyland, which actually developed and nourished Alien background... It did not affect Alien continuity the way AVP 2 will...now, we will have aliens on a populated area of the US, with lots of witnesses and Alien CORPSES for the future Weyland Yutani study to their contentment...So, i think Paul Anderson's AVP will not mak a dent to Alien mythos, AVP 2 certainly will...\nDarkness, let me understand your meaning: you truly believe that Paul Anderson would, under Fox's payroll, say in 2003 (under Fox's payroll) anything that could contradict Fox's directives,,,In 2004, AFTER AVP got out, AFTER PAul Anderson was no longer obliged to be Fox's spokesperson, he could say wht he really felt about Fox's decisions...so, sorry if i choose to disagree with you... Oh, and Paul's script proves you and him wrong, apparently..with all the deleted cscenes and the scenes that never made it to the final cut...\nYou're just not understanding what people are saying and I'm not sure I understand what point it is you're trying to get across. Anderson has never spoken negatively about Fox or AvP. He thinks he did a great job with the film and has no problems with it. Sure, but lots of scenes were scripted but probably never even filmed. Happens in every movie. Scenes are cut for pacing/budget reasons. But they weren't cut for the rating. That's what you're trying to get at, isn't it? And yes, AvP did negatively affect both the Alien series and Predator series greatly when it came to continuity with the previous films but I'm not going to get into that here. Many of us have said the things numerous times before.\nThis topic has strayed a little off... the good news that if this rating system is used, and is profitable for FOX, we could see an AVP2 made without the limitation of NC-17. I don't feel that AVP2 would come close to an NC-17 rating... but it would be nice if the directors could be free to make a movie true to thier vision and not limited to a safe R. I think that all fans deserve a great film.\nBelieve what you want, Darkness... I am talking about facts here...and if you READ the final script, you would notice a lot of scenes that were there but never made it and some of them changed the feeling and pace of it... That is also fact...i knwo exactly what i am talking about...always did...always will... other fact remains that you will never know what were on those deleted scenes and why they were cut in the first place... But you believe what you want...Not my concern... Also, AVP did not affect NEGATIVELY the Alien continuity, and i said that, so stop putting words in my mouth, if you please... It never even remotely touched it...as fas as ALIEN - the movie is concerned, the general idea was that somehow Weyland-Yutani knew about the Xenos' existence, but didn't know where they were...so that give a little leeway as to where that info came from, which i gather, will be in AVP2 and never was in AVP (remember the CLASSIFIED destination of the Piper Maru?). So, IMHO, it didn't affect Alien continuity, it enriched it with Charles Weyland an the idea that the android was built to homage him... I just hope when AVP2 comes out and you realise how bad it is, you remember what you said here... Having said that, i agree with Fawdrey...let's go back to topic, shall we? I apologise for my little straying...\nRIJ: The event known as the Roswell incident supposedly had dead extraterrestrials, a populated area and many witnesses, but whether or not you believe, disbelieve or are agnostic about it, it's not broadly accepted as ever having been proven. Who's to say that this story would not be relegated to the same level, by the time Ripley and others happen to be depicted as alive? It could be listed as just one more UFO event and only specialist researchers would bother to pay attention to any descriptions. That's assuming a ship is even found by the general public. If not, then the only 'witnesses' would be those killed. The one who survive are only going to be able to report some maniac running around with blades and a gun, plus some monsters. If so, then there would be no reason for the general population to link them with extraterrestrials. Just an unexplained event. Who's to say how many wars could emerge in the meantime and wipe out any records to do with them? And the first film was spoken of as intentionally canon, by those involved. There was a reference to it being a new franchise, but that's more of an economic term: 'Voyager' was its own franchise, but it also happened to be canon, in regards to being a part of the 'Star Trek' franchise, as a whole. The interview, however, is regarded as fake by most. It never backed up its sources. The list of people allegedly attending the screening were never shown to have been anywhere near there.\nXeno, my two-cents actually were on the Weyland company finding the remains of Xenomorphs...the rest couls well be tight-lipped, desinformation, cloak and daggered stuff..i said that before..but the remains would enable Weyland to study them 150 years before the Nostromo's demise... You do understand my predicament here..? About Paul's interview...Paul never negated having given that interview and your reasons for dismissing it are not enough to prove it did not happen for a fact... Just because many people say something doesn't man it's true...And i realise that your hatred for Paul could well be amplifying your denial... I mean, if Paul had in mind an entirely different movie, then he would be oof the hook, wouldn't it? And then, you would have to blame the anonymous Fox suits, which would not give you that much thrills, now would it? Just a thought...\nI don't mean to criticise anyone, just something i came to realise about myself while watching any movie...\n...I started off by criticising negatively this movie when i first saw it on theatres, but after a while, I came to realise that this AVP movie, a crossover movie, is just intended to be pure fun...especially if it does not affect negatively what preceded it...\n...the incubation period being accelerated, the design of the Predator spaceship, Lance Henricksen's character, the isolated locale, the confidential scientific trip, the destruction of the pyramid and the aliens with it, the Queen sinking, they do not affect continuity, and it clearly shows an effort to keep it a self-contained, isolated event that does not change nor affect Alien continuity...\n...Paul Anderson did say that AVP was a sequel to Pred II and a prequel to Alien, but i think he was saying that in terms of time...there are no events alluding to events depicted in Pred II, nor does the events allude to anything that happens in Alien...We still don't know how Weyland-Yutani came to know about the Xenomorph's existence, nor do we know why they have become obsessed with it... AVP 2 is reportedly covering those grounds...which makes it a more interfering movie than AVP was, and a more dangerous movie because of just that...the acceleration of alien growth can have a million different reasons off-screen that can be filled by any fan's and spectator's imagination... The teaming up of the Predator and Lex..? Its in the comics... You just liked or disliked how it was put together, which is natural, however, your reasons for liking or disliking it can be and will always be arguable... That's why we're all here...\nI'm getting pretty tired of you now. You're clearly one of these AvP fanboys that only believes what you want to believe. It's pointless even talking to you. I hate to say it but I know more about AvP than most people. I followed the film reporting news on it daily for an entire year. I even wrote this article just the other month detailing what deleted scenes there are: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/avpmovie.php?section=avpdeleted2 I looked in the script. That article took me a long time to write and you have the cheek to tell me what I don't know what was deleted? You're on the right path to being banned if you carry on like this.",

        "raw_content": "Florida Juvenile Lifers Linger In Prison In Spite Of Mandate to Have Sentences Reviewed\nDespite Supreme Court rulings calling for reconsideration, hundreds of inmates in Florida who were juveniles when they committed crimes are currently waiting for their day in court (arguably in violation of their civil rights).\nTwo Supreme Court rulings previously established that it is unconstitutional to impose mandatory life sentences without a chance for parole for juveniles convicted of homicide because it results in cruel and unusual punishment, and courts need to recognize that juveniles have a potential for rehabilitation due to incomplete brain development at the time they commit their crimes. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia have already banned life sentences without the possibility of parole for juveniles, and in some other states, no juvenile is serving such a sentence.\nIn 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states and the federal government are required to consider the individual circumstances in each juvenile defendant\u2019s case. In its 2016 decision, it applied the decision retroactively; declaring that all mandatory life sentences without the possibility of parole for juveniles are inherently unconstitutional.\nCurrent Status in Florida\nIn addition, a Florida state law passed required that all relevant terms be automatically reviewed by a circuit court judge after 15 to 25 years had been served, depending upon the crime. For example, a juvenile convicted of participating in a homicide but who did not actually kill someone would likely get a review after 15 years, while one who did commit murder would receive a review after 25 years.\nThe Florida Supreme Court then ruled that any juvenile serving life receive a new look, including those in prison before the law was changed.\nHowever, only approximately 85 of those inmates have been resentenced due to a lack of funding and logistical issues (such as state courts being able to figure out which sentences do and do not comply with the rulings), and about 80 others imprisoned for life in non-homicide case have also received new terms, as prompted by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling. That leaves many, many individuals lingering in prison awaiting their day to have their sentence reviewed.\nAdvocates now estimate that there are approximately 600 inmates serving life in Florida prisons for murders committed as juveniles who are eligible for a new sentence. However, Florida no longer has parole, which makes addressing these types of cases even more complicated.\nIf you were sentenced to serve life in a Florida prison as a juvenile, you deserve to have your sentence reviewed.

        "title": "GOP rumble rocks the 1st - Baltimore Sun",
        "raw_content": "GOP rumble rocks the 1st\nChris GuyThe Baltimore Sun\nCHESTERTOWN -- In a campaign already defined by months of television advertising, million-dollar fundraising and an unprecedented barrage of direct mail brochures, a Republican face-off in Maryland's 1st District congressional race here yesterday proved that political rancor is running deep - at least between two leading GOP challengers.\nThe low-key Rep. Wayne T. Gilchrest is in the political fight of his life, facing two well-financed state senators, Andy Harris and E.J. Pipkin, in the Feb. 12 Republican primary.\nThe pair, who leveled their sharpest barbs at each other yesterday, agreed on one thing: The nine-term incumbent is just not conservative enough for the district that includes portions of Harford, Baltimore and Anne Arundel counties - as well as all nine counties of the Eastern Shore.\nPipkin began his remarks at two-hour candidates forum in a packed Washington College meeting room by angrily waving a glossy political brochure he said was another in a series produced by the Harris campaign to distort his record. Pipkin said Harris is trying to characterize him as a liberal who supported new state taxes at last year's special General Assembly session and through his five years in the legislature.\n\"I voted for every tax cut presented by Gov. Robert Ehrlich,\" said Pipkin, ripping the ad apart as onlookers cheered. \"I've spent my entire adult life working on checkbook issues. What we have seen is half-truths, half-discussion and outright lies,\" said Pipkin, a former investment banker.\nCandidate Robert J. Banks, a former Orphans' Court judge and staff member for former Rep. Helen Delich Bentley, criticized \"God-awful\" commercials run by Pipkin and Harris, some of which began appearing on Baltimore and Salisbury televisions last fall.\n\"Come on, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves, how you've gone about this campaign,\" Banks said. \"There's never been a race like this. It's the nastiest I've ever seen.\"\nOne of the event's organizers, former Kent County Commissioner Larry B. Beck, said he couldn't agree more.\n\"It's getting way too personal,\" Beck said. \"I've never seen anything this bad. Every day you get another negative ad in the mail.\"\nFor his part, Gilchrest wore a bemused expression as his opponents bickered. The lawmaker, who was first elected in 1990, offered sometimes-rambling but detailed answers to a series of questions prepared by local Republicans who organized the event and from some of the 150 people who attended the forum.\nA Marine combat veteran who won a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star in Vietnam, Gilchrest has maintained his moderate image through two recent elections while beating challengers who tried to outflank him on the political right.\n\"I have voted for every single tax cut offered by President Bush - every single time,\" Gilchrest said.\nThroughout the campaign, Gilchrest has drawn questions about his loyalty after being one of two Republicans to vote with House Democrats on a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq. But last week, he was endorsed by President Bush. He also has the backing of conservative former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who helped raise $50,000 at one fundraiser.\nYesterday, Gilchrest, who has taken several trips to Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East, said more dialogue with insurgents and a better understanding of various factions would back up the U.S. military surge.\nHarris, the father of five, called the war \"a generational issue, fighting global terrorism.\" He said the war, and Gilchrest's record on it, motivated him to challenge the incumbent.\nAs in 2004, Gilchrest is opposed by the conservative Club for Growth, which is backing Harris with a series of TV ads. Harris, an anesthesiologist who is a GOP leader in the General Assembly, announced last week that he has raised more than $1 million.\nGilchrest, who for years refused to accept donations from political action committees, reversed himself this month to maintain what supporters call a level playing field. After raising about $800,000, Gilchrest has about half that left for the final two weeks of the campaign, said Tony Caligiuri, campaign director.\nHarris will have about the same for late spending, depending on how much the Club for Growth and similar groups contribute.\nPipkin entered the race at the end of November. He will finance a large part of his campaign with his personal fortune. Four years ago, he spent about $2 million in an unsuccessful bid to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski.\nCandidate Joseph A. Arminio, a defense analyst from Anne Arundel County, frequently promoted his book, The Decline and Fall of the American Way, when it was his turn to speak. Arminio said his campaign is allied with the Ron Paul presidential campaign.\nchris.guy@baltsun.com",

        "raw_content": "Bankruptcy in Australia is something that people rarely wish to ever discuss. It is a taboo topic, and when an individual is experiencing a personal financial matter lots of people tend to be quick to identify them instead of assist them. For the most part the whole procedure of Bankruptcy is of course likely to be a private issue, but that makes it difficult since one of the greatest components of life is being able to learn from other people\u2019s errors. However if all of the experiences about Bankruptcy are being kept personal, where can you learn? Well in some cases it is going to be good to check out the rich and powerful people who have experienced this who tend to hide in the shadows of both the business world and our individual lives. It\u2019s the utmost taboo matter. The concern is perception\u2013 because in reality bankruptcy is essentially a solution that we have the ability to utilize to protect our own selves, and wealthy folks know this. Rich people have uncovered that bankruptcy is a crucial part of being in business. In certain situations, factors don\u2019t develop quite like you had expected, that the market has evolved and the numbers just don\u2019t work anymore. In the event that you are taking care of a small business in Albury, then focus, because (and not to sound too dramatic) learning more about this may help you to save your business, car, home and family.\nI mean if you take into account Clive Palmer\u2019s nickel mine and the fall of the Dick Smith chain of consumer electrics you can observe how Bankruptcy may be intriguing. Both have closed up and yet both high profile owners are nonetheless rich and worth millions of dollars. So how does that work? How can these people have effectively had a significant business failing, and yet had this barely impact their personal wealth? It is due to the fact that they know the nuances of Bankruptcy.\nInitially, when it comes to Bankruptcy there are obvious ways to safeguard assets in your business projects, ways to separate your assets and basically place a wall in between a business, and your home and motor vehicle. Often this takes the form of a legal trust, so if you need to get more information about this then speak with a specialist when establishing your Albury establishment. However, this really should be done before you start having problems.\nThe next matter that you ought to discover Bankruptcy from this is that often there could be a period of time when you will certainly wish to step back from this business enterprise that is failing and know the moment to call an end to it. That is what has occurred with Clive Palmer and Dick Smith\u2013 both have been dealing with businesses long enough to understand when it is not likely to be successful any longer and so they pull the plug instead of going down with the ship.\nThe judgment that surrounds Bankruptcy is something that I would love to have removed, since when we truly think about it, there are many people that this influences\u2013 such as the public figures and rich people\u2013 who simply shrug it off, and so why should the average person who makes a bad decision or two believe that they have failed?\nIf you have ever lived in a Bushfire vulnerable area you would understand that you have 2 possibilities: fight or retreat \u2013 and the exact same could be said of business. If you fight with a straining business in some scenarios you can save it, but most of the time you will be engulfed by the flames. But if you are clever you will retreat, let the organization of Bankruptcy help extinguish the flames and save your home. As with any part of life, this is a tough decision, and this is one that you should rarely make without having professional guidance, but don\u2019t ever hesitate to turn to Bankruptcy when you need to.\nIf you truly wish to learn more about some of your options when it concerns Bankruptcy \u2013 such as what to do, where to turn and what questions to ask about Bankruptcy, then don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch with Bankruptcy Experts Albury on 1300 795 575, or visit our website: www.bankruptcyexpertsalbury.com.au.",

        "title": "The Big Apple: Pecos Cantaloupe",
        "raw_content": "Pecos Cantaloupe\nThe Pecos area of West Texas began irrigation and cultivation of the cantaloupe in the early 1900s. By 1913, Pecos cantaloupes were famous for their sweetness and overall flavor. The term \u201cPecos cantaloupe\u201d would be promoted in the public consciousness to a level similar to \u201cSwiss cheese\u201d and \u201cMaine lobster.\u201d A Pecos Cantaloupe Festival is held each August.\nThe name \u201cPecos cantaloupe\u201d is not trademarked and is not considered a botanical name.\nWikipedia: Cantaloupe\nCantaloupe (also cantaloup) refers to two varieties of muskmelon (Cucumis melo), which is a species in the family Cucurbitaceae (a family which includes nearly all melons and squashes). Cantaloupes are typically 15\u201325 cm in length and are somewhat oblong, though not as oblong as watermelons. Like all melons, cantaloupes grow best in sandy, well-aerated, well-watered soil that is free of encroaching weeds.\nThe European cantaloupe is Cucumis melo cantalupensis. Its lightly-ribbed, pale green skin looks quite different from the North American cantaloupe.\nThe North American cantaloupe, common in the United States and in some parts of Canada, is Cucumis melo reticulatus (or sometimes C. melo melo var. cantalupensis), a different member of the same muskmelon species. It is named reticulatus due to its net-like (or reticulated) skin covering. In Australia and New Zealand, it is called rockmelon due to the rock-like appearance of the skin of the fruit. It is called a spanspek in South Africa, where it is harvested during the summer months October through February. It is a round melon with firm, orange, moderately-sweet flesh and a thin reticulated light-brown rind. Varieties with redder and yellower flesh exist but are not common, and they are not considered as flavorful as the more common variety.\nThe cantaloupe was named after the commune Cantalupo in Sabina, in the Sabine Hills near Tivoli, Italy, a summer residence of the Pope. It was originally cultivated about the year 1700 from seeds brought from Armenia, part of the homeland of melons.\nThe most widely enjoyed variety of European cantaloupe is the Charentais, cultivated almost exclusively in France. Pope Innocent XIII(1721-1724) is said to have enjoyed sipping Port wine from a partially hollowed melon half as an ap\u00e9ritif.\nCantaloupes were first introduced to North America by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage to the New World in 1494. The W. Atlee Burpee Company developed and introduced the \u201cNetted Gem\u201d in 1881 from varieties then growing in North America.\nWikipedia: Pecos, Texas\nPecos is the largest city and county seat of Reeves CountyGR6, Texas, United States. It is situated in the river valley on the west bank of the Pecos River at the eastern edge of the Chihuahuan Desert and the Trans-Pecos region of west Texas and near the southern border of New Mexico. The population was 9,501 at the 2000 census. The city is a regional commercial center for ranching, oil and gas production and agriculture. The city is most recognized for its association with the local cultivation of cantaloupes. Pecos claims to be the site of the world\u2019s first rodeo on July 4, 1883.\nPecos is one of the numerous towns in western Texas organized around a train depot during the construction of the Texas and Pacific Railway. These towns were subsequently linked by the construction of U.S. Highway 80 and Interstate 20. Prior to the arrival of the railroad, a permanent camp existed nearby where cattle drives crossed the Pecos River. With the introduction of irrigation from underground aquifers, the city became a center of commerce for extensive local agricultural production of cotton, onions and cantaloupes.\nPecos Cantaloupes\nCity: Pecos | Region: Big Bend Country\nGrown in irrigated fields, luscious melon is the delight of gourmets throughout the United States. Quality derives from natural combination of alkaline soil, western sunlight and altitude. Pecos cantaloupes enjoy comparable status with Maine lobsters, French wines and Swiss cheeses. Harvested late July through Sept. with a festival held in late summer.\nThe Pecos Texas Visitor\u2019s Guide\nThe Pecos Cantaloupe\nNationally famed melon, originated in this city. Residents from 1880\u2019s grew melons in gardens noting sun and soil imparted a distinctive fl avor. Madison L. Todd and wife Julia came here from east Texas and New Mexico. In 1917 Todd and partner, D. T. McKee grew 8 acres of melons, selling part of the crop to dining cars of Texas & Pacific Railway, where Pecos Cantaloupes fi rst became popular and in wide demand. McKee soon quit business, but Todd remained a leader for 41 years. Famed lecturer Hellen Keller, presidents Eisenhower and Johnson and many other distinguished persons have ordered and appreciated Pecos Cantaloupes. Exclusive clubs in New York, Chicago, St. Louis and other cities are regular clients of Pecos growers. Genuine Pecos Cantaloupes begin ripening in July and continue on the market until late October. The varieties are the same as those grown in other areas. Climate, soil and special cultivation methods account for the distinctiveness of Pecos melons. 2000 acres are now planted annually, M.L. Todd was known in his later years as Father of the industry. He and his wife and family were leaders in civic and religious enterprises.\nPecos Cantaloupe Industry\n\u201cMr. Pecos Cantaloupe\u201d\nHe is acknowledged as the father of the industry: \u201cMr. Pecos Cantaloupe,\u201d M.L. Todd. His full name was Madison Lafayette Todd, but I never heard anyone address him on the street as anything other than \u201cMr. Todd.\u201d Madison Todd was born in 1875 in Gladewater (Upshur County), Texas.\nIn Pecos, Granddad and the uncle of the young man who had purchased his New Mexico homestead, Mr. D.T. McKee, became business partners. At this time in Pecos, small acreages of cantaloupes were already being grown and sold locally. Mr. McKee knew that there was something special about cantaloupes grown in Pecos soil, under irrigation. He was perhaps the first to see the possibilities of selling them to out of town customers. Their first \u201ccommercial\u201d customer was the Dining Car Service of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. (Little did they know that the growth of the Pecos cantaloupe industry would be entirely dependent on the railroad and the Railway Express Company.) Their T&P customer proved to be a special blessing, and was critical to the start and direction of the fledgling Pecos cantaloupe industry. However within two years, family obligations caused Mr. McKee to sell his interest to Granddad Todd and return to his former home in Virginia. Granddad continued with the business, shipping to a few more customers each year.\nPatrons in the T&P Dining Cars were impressed with the look, texture, and taste of the breakfast cantaloupe they were served, and some asked where they were grown. The T&P graciously provided them with Granddad\u2019s address, and some began to send in orders. Granddad saw a new way to make his business grow: specializing in shipments of Pecos melons to individuals. Shipments were made directly to their homes by Railway Express. As these shipments continued through the twenties, the word about \u201cPecos Cantaloupes\u201d began to spread and the small industry grew. More acres were planted, and other growers joined the business.\n6 March 1912, Dallas (TX) Morning News, pg. 14:\nPecos, Tex., March 6.\u2014Contracts have been signed up between the officers and members of the Pecos Cantaloupe Growers Association, guaranteeing approximately 300 acres in cantaloupes for this section.\n14 May 1913, San Antonio (TX) Express, \u201cReeves County Thrifty; Irrigation Is Magic Key,\u201d pg. 12:\nDemand All Over United States for Famous Cantaloupes\nThe newest crop of this irrigated valley, which is destined to make a name for it in all parts of the United States, is the famous Pecos Valley cantaloupe, a melon that cannot be excelled either by Rockyford or by any other district that is growing them. This broad statement is made from the fact that under the supervision of the Pecos Cantaloupe Growers\u2019 Association for 1912 three melons were shipped to all parts of the United States, and a hundred letters and telegrams were received stating, \u201cThe Pecos Valley cantaloupe is in a class by itself, please increase our order, as we cannot furnish our trade fast enough.\u201d These being facts, the melon growers\u2019 association to increasing its acreage, and at the present time more than 400 acres have been contracted.

A bumper yield is forecast with a possible total season\u2019s shipment of 800 to 3,000 cars out of the Pecos Valley.\nThe cantaloupe industry in the valley got its first national recognition last season when pecos cantaloupe topped the highly competitive market at New York City for several weeks, one carload bringing $5.50 a crate.\nAs a result of the favorable price received for the 135 cars shipped last year, the industry has been greatly expanded with about 2,500 acres cultivated in cantaloupes in the Pecos Valley, and an additional 1,000 acres near Carlsbad and Artesia, New Mexico, this year.\nThe Pecos Cantaloupe Association, of which K. M. Regan of Pecos is president, has contracted to pack and ship all Pecos melons this year under a trade name of \u201cPecos\u201d cantaloupe.\nThe Pecos cantaloupe is superior, its partisans say, because of its exceptional taste and texture.

Texas That Is\nSeems everyone who has been in Texas for any time has heard of the famous Pecos Cantaloupe. The origins are pretty definite as to growers but not so definite as to source. Most of the information I can gather indicates the seeds came from an imported load of Israeli melons - name not known. One thing SURE is it is by far the best tasting canteloupe available. Too bad they are not as available as they once were. Drought and copy cats have messed up the market and \u201cPecos Cantaloupes\u201d now may or may not be the real thing. The best way to tell the real thing by appearance is they are almost perfectly round and the seed cavity is also almost perfectly round and TINY - a little bigger than a golf ball. Soil make all the difference so if you plant a seed from a real Pecos cantaloupe in your garden you may not get the flavor of one grown near Pecos, TX. When you find a Pecos cantaloupe it has real flavor because they are only picked when ripe not picked near-ripe and allowed to \u201cripen on the truck\u201d.

        "raw_content": "A Patriarchal Society By Jean Rhys 's Wide Sargasso Sea\nA patriarchal society is a world in which men are the sole decision makers and hold positions of power. As a result, women are introduced to a world made by men, and a history refined by a man 's actions. In Jean Rhys 's Wide Sargasso Sea, conceptions of gender are purposefully problematized. Women characters such as Antoinette and Christophine are pitilessly exposed to constraints of an imperial world.Wide Sargasso Sea presents a modern form of feminism which takes into account the intricacy of male-female interactions to find that efforts to surpass gender norms are despairing.\nIn the marriage of Mr. Rochester and Antoinette, Mr. Rochester is as an oppressive force, a husband who wants to dominate his wife. We see Mr.Rochester\u2019s dominance in how he treats his wife as an object and ultimately muddles her identity. His initial dominance is economic; upon their marriage, he owns all of her wealth and we see the consequence of this dynamic when Antoinette asks Christophine for help in improving her marriage. Christophine advises her to just \"pack up and go\" to which Antoinette tells her that Rochester \"will not come after [her]\" because she has \"no money of [her] own..everything [she] had belongs to him\" under English law (69). Clearly economically powerless, Antoinette is dependant on her husband and unable to escape a loveless marriage and start over. Mr. Rochester 's economic stability grants him power, leaving Antionette as the woman in the marriage, oppressed because\u2026\nJean Rhys 's Wide Sargasso Sea\nJean Rhys\u2019s Wide Sargasso Sea attempts to prove just how closely intertwined dreams and reality are. Rhys meticulously weaves dreams into real life, ultimately creating a novel that conjures a very ethereal truth. Trying to draw the line between what is real and what is fake is nearly impossible and, by the end of the novel, the reader is left in a state of lucid uncertainty. Rhys\u2019s clever use of slumber in Wide Sargasso Sea reveals an enhanced sense of character progression, the inevitability\u2026\nJean Rhys, born in 1890 on the Island of Dominica to a Welsh father and a creole (West Indian) mother experienced the difficulty of integrating into British culture due to her Caribbean origin struggling to create an identity for herself. In her novel \u2018Wide Sargasso Sea\u2019 (1996) Rhys depicts how she was deeply influenced by this creole heritage, exploring the struggle of finding ones place and identity in relations to race. She contrasts the European discourse with the creole discourse, focusing\u2026\nWide Sargasso Sea is a novel written by Jean Rhys, discussing the life of Antoinette Cosway. Antoinette and her family are Creole and they live on a sugar plantation in Jamaica. Due to Antoinette\u2019s Creole background, she and her family face a lot of problems and discrimination during their lives. However, when Antoinette grew older she had one friend named Tia. They played and talked together despite their obvious differences. On the night that Coulibri is set on fire, Antoinette flees with her\u2026\nIn Jean Rhys\u2019s novel Wide Sargasso Sea, Edward Rochester can be considered as an embodiment of patriarchal and colonial oppression. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, patriarchal means, \u201crelating to, characteristic of, or designating a society or culture in which men tend to be in positions of authority and cultural values and norms are seen as favouring men\u2026\u201d (\u201cPatriarchal\u201d) moreover colonial means \u201cof, belonging to, or relating to a colony\u2026\u201d (\u201cColonial\u201d). In addition, oppression means\u2026\n`` Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit And Jean Rhys 's Wide Sargasso Sea\nlooking at a couple of novels, it is possible to evaluate how the power dynamic of masculinity puts up its walls when facing the smallest threats to its power. Through analysis of Jeanette Winterson\u2019s Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit and Jean Rhys\u2019s Wide Sargasso Sea, it is possible to see how the figureheads of masculinity panic as soon as they are posed with the smallest threat. The protagonists of both stories are categorized as \u201cmad\u201d or \u201cabnormal\u201d throughout the course of each respective plot. They\u2026\n\u201cwrite [her] name in fire red\u201d (53) by the end of the novel. Throughout Wide Sargasso Sea, Jean Rhys magnifies the themes of madness and power by analyzing Rochester\u2019s and Antoinette\u2019s interactions with one another to ultimately teach a lesson that can be interpreted in many different ways. Their downfalls are created by the catastrophic conflicts with each other and the environment around them. It becomes more clear what Jean Rhys intends; she relates the text to present-day social issues that a reader\u2026\nBook Review: Jean Rhys' 'Wide Sargasso Sea'\nIdeas like slavery and post-colonial aftermath on former British colonies are dominant ideas in Jean Rhys' 1966 novel \"Wide Sargasso Sea\". The writer focused on providing a realistic display concerning feelings in former British colonies as individuals struggle to reclaim their cultural identity in environments destroyed as a consequence of oppression occurring during British influence. The first part of the novel focuses extensively on people who were formerly slaves working on plantations owned\u2026\nExamine the ways in which Rhys demonstrates how women are victims of a patriarchal society in Wide Sargasso Sea. A patriarchal society is one whereby men are the decision makers and hold positions of power and prestige. Patriarchy refers to a societal structure whereby men are dominant not in number or in force but in their access to status related power and decision making power. In these societies, women are presented with an interpretation of the world made by men, and a history of the world\u2026\nIdentity Crisis in Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys\nA theme that Rhys uses throughout her novel was identity crisis. The main female characters in Wide Sargasso Sea, Antoinette depended on her force marriage husband Rochester to help her show her identity but instead both of their identities were disrupted in the novel leaving Antoinette fighting alone with a daunting question: \u201cWho she were?\u201d Antoinette fails to gain her identity, despite her struggle as a Creole woman in the face of racial and cultural rejection.

Nevertheless, it is clear that her life is tragic. The tragedy comes from her numerous pursuits for love and a sense of belonging, and her failure at each and every one of these attempts. As a child Antoinette, is deprived of parental love. Her father is a drunkard and has many mistresses and illegitimate children.

        "raw_content": "Australian Vocational Education and Training\nThis essay discusses on the Australian vocational education and training (VET) as a formal learning system that is intended for out-of-school youth who are past secondary education. It explores the drivers that shape the economic, social and political contexts in which VET was established like human capital theory, changing nature of work, globalisation, lifelong learning and the learning society. The paper analyses and evaluates the VET strands and mode of delivery and argues that VET is a good channel for out-of-school youth to be mainstreamed to the job industry but the mode of delivery is not sustainable. The experiences of VET practitioners interviewed and the researches on disengaged learners and reasons of early leavers were used to \u2026show more content\u2026\nAccording to Dyson and Keating (2005) the development of RPL has been connected with lifelong learning internationally and the development of competency based qualifications or national qualifications frameworks in some countries. The objective of promoting learning has been strongly indicated by the recent European Union (EU) initiative on the substantiation of non-formal and informal learning.\nAlso, the Australian government in collaboration with DepEd and other institutions perceive that we are now living in a learning society where continuous learning is necessary; may it be acquired through formal or non-formal education. According to Field (2002) one key characteristic of learning society is that majority of the citizens have become permanently learning subjects and that their performance as adult learners is at least in part responsible for determining their life chances; and an indicator that learning society exists is that non-formal learning pervades daily life and is given much importance. DepEd has the mandate though VET that out-of-school youth will be provided basic education and be helped to determine their life chances as they will be mainstreamed to formal education and are encouraged to finish vocational or bachelor\u2019s degree courses.\nFurthermore, VET curriculum has five learning strands or learning areas, namely: (i) communication skills (ii) problem solving and critical\nA Vocational Training Project Report\nA VOCATIONAL TRAINING PROJECT REPORT ON \"Assembling of Diesel-Electric Locomotives\" AT Submitted in halfway satisfaction of the prerequisite For the honor of degree OF Bachelor 's OF TECHNOLOGY (Session 2011-2015) GUIDED BY: - SUBMITTED BY:- MR.

In prison, inmates are revoked the opportunities such as work, education and social contact from the outside world. They chose this path by the actions they took to get them in a correctional facility. Prisons do offer education and vocational programs to rehabilitate them while incarcerated.

According to Holland (1997, p.13), there are many characteristics of a person and an environment that influence educational and vocational development such as the\u2026\nVocational Education It is unfortunate that the importance of vocational education has diminished over the past twenty five years. The emphasis that used to be placed on learning a trade that would provide a living has disappeared with the typewriter and slide rule. We are no longer encouraging students to become skilled tradespersons. The vocational mentoring programs of recent past have been supplanted with SAT Prep courses. Where will we find skilled mechanics, plumbers, welders, farmers\u2026\nThe Benefits of Vocational Education\nThe Benefits of Vocational Education Most high schools offer some form of vocational education program. Vocational education is training for a specific career or trade, excluding the professions. Vocational education focuses on practical applications of skills learned, and is generally unconcerned with theory or traditional academic skills. Students at vocational educational typically receive more hands-on, career-minded education than students at traditional schools. Individuals are given the opportunity\u2026\nThe Concepts of Lifelong Learning and Vocational Education Training\nPurposes Lifelong Learning Vocational Education Training Introduction The concept of lifelong learning has always been central to adult and vocational education. Technical and Further Education (TAFE) was developed in the 1960's as a provision of education not only for the initial preparation of skills for the Australian workforce, but for learning throughout life. Similarly, lifelong learning has long been associated with individuals' personal development or continuing education to advance or change\u2026\nVET is a term that first appeared in the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011 and refers to a group of frameworks and systems that define the operational set up of RTOs.

        "raw_content": "Child Abuse And Its Effect On Children\nWe live in a world where greatness happens each day, and without knowing even greater people surround us. Within our world we have different age groups. Today I will focus on the group that is our future, children. Every day a baby is born and begins their journey of learning to adjust to the world. From the beginning of the life of these newborns, parents that help them grow into the world we know of today that will chew you up and spit you out if you are not ready for the things it will throw at you. Crimes against children happen every day around us and we only catch about twenty-eight percent of crimes against children are reported to police (Crimes Against Children Research Children). The things we do not want to acknowledge happen to children are occurring simply, because of cruel minds and neglectful parents or adults around them. I will take you on a journey of things that occur as a child in a society where children are not living life, from child abuse going too far, to the psychosocial consequences children go through after going through such abuse, statistical data of violence caused to children, and sexual abuse against children. In the film Matilda Ms. Trunchbull is known to say,\u201d Spare the rod, Beat the child.\u201d Now in movie terms this was used to reveal the awfulness of her character and that was be great, because the director was trying to give the audience a sneak peeks of the things that are occurring in some peoples households, things that most people\u2026\nIntroduction Child abuse takes many different forms. Including physical, sexual, emotional, or neglect of a children by parents, guardians, or others responsible for a child 's welfare. Regardless of the type of abuse, the child\u2019s devolvement is greatly impacted. The child\u2019s risk for emotional, behavioral, academic, social, and physical problems in life increase. According to the Child Maltreatment Report by the Children\u2019s Bureau (1999) the most common form of child abuse in the United States is\u2026\nseveral types of abuse, there\u2019s physical, emotional, verbal and several others abuses. But the abuse I would like to focus on is child abuse. Domestic violence towards children is important because there is a way to prevent it from happening. Typical parents and caregivers do not intend to abuse their children. Abuse is mainly directed toward the behaviors that are given off towards one another. Author David Gil defines child abuse as an occurrence where a caretaker injures a child, not by accident\u2026\nChild abuse has been an issue in America since the beginning of time, but lately there has gradually been an increase in reported incidents of abuse. There are several types of child abuse that are present in today\u2019s society. The different types of abuse include physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Of the different maltreatment types, four-fifths (78.3%) of unique victims were neglected, 17.6 percent were physically abused, 9.2 percent were sexually abused, 8.1 percent were psychologically maltreated\u2026\nLooking at another Side of Child Abuse The Different Processes Child abuse is a topic that mostly everyone knows or is at least familiar with. It is an inexcusable action that is unforgivable, it can do detrimental damage that may be irreversible. Many see it only as the story that is told, but they do not see the effects it could have and the journey the children and families go through to change or have control of the situation. Children are the main victims of abuse but their families and peers\u2026\nMost parents and other caregivers do not intend to hurt their children, but abuse is defined by the effect on the child, not the motivation of the parents or caregiver.\" \"Tens of thousands of children each year are traumatized by physical, sexual, and emotional abusers or by caregivers who neglect them, making child abuse as common as it is shocking.\" \"Most of us can\u2019t imagine what would make an adult use violence against a child, and the worse the behavior is, the more unimaginable it seems. But\u2026\nChild Abuse Is An Effect On Children\nIn 2010 according to the census bureau there were 74,100,000 U.S children between the ages of 0-17 being abused and 3.3 million referrals. This effected on average 1-10 U.S families and children, there were more than 32,200,000 U.S families with children under the age of 18 according to the 2010 census bureau. From the 3.3 million hotline calls in 2010 there were less than 475,000 sustained cases (2010 NCANDS: 436,321 sustained +24,976 indicated = 461,297 total) resulting in about 15% of hotline\u2026\nMrs.Pettit 6 June 2015 Child Abuse \u201cIt\u2019s easier to throw away a child who reacts to his abuse than attempt to heal his pain\u201d- Dwight E. Abbot . As a world we need to protect our children from child abuse whether the abuser is emotionally disabled or not mentally stable if we make a change to stopping child abuse many children lives can be saved. Child abuse endangers the child\u2019s physical and emotional health and development. Our society needs to prevent child abuse at all cost. Throughout the\u2026\nreports of child abuse are made involving more than 6 million children. The United States has one of the worst records of child abuse losing 4-7 children a day to the abuse. Abuse is when any behavior or action that is used to scare, harm, threaten, control or intimidate another person. Child abuse is a behavior outside the norms of conduct and entails substantial risk of causing physical or emotional harm. There are four main types of child abuse; physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, and\u2026\nChild abuse has long been an ongoing social problem; this abuse has been one of the repeatedly difficult accusations to prove in our criminal justice system. Child abuse causes many years of suffering for victims. Children abused suffer from chemical imbalances, behavioral issues and are at high risk for becoming abusers or being abused in adult relationships. This cycle of learned behavior and suffering will be a hopeless reoccurring problem unless the criminal justice system and protocols for abusers\u2026\nindividuals corrected. However, there are cases that have not been solved or not stopped by the law. Child abuse is common. Child abuse can be caused by a variety of reasons. Scientist have been studying and they have some ideas on what prompt people to harm children (Ian Hacking). They are trying to end child abuse, but there is so much they can do. Many children abuse incidents are not reported. Child abuse may have many causes as in way the abuser does it.

For centuries, people have regarded it as an inexhaustible resource and a useful transport route. The ocean also plays a significant role in regulating the climate, the atmosphere, carbon cycling, and nutrition flow. However, environmental problems, particularly over the last few decades, have pushed the ocean to its limits. This essay will argue three major environmental issues impacting the world 's oceans by focusing on the present condition and phenomena of these problems, possible reasons or factors, and lastly, damage to the ocean environment.\nPlastic threatens the diversity of marine life and affects the ocean 's ecological circulation. Plastic is a large part of ocean waste, and its proportions continue to grow. Under natural conditions, general plastic decomposition needs 50 to 70 years. However, some plastics take hundreds of years to decompose. Plastic floating in the ocean decomposes more quickly, but it still takes decades. Unfortunately, only one-third of produced plastic products are recycled and reused, and the remaining pieces fall into the ocean. The appearance of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch shows that, with the movement of ocean currents, a large number of plastic pieces have gathered together in the ocean.

        "raw_content": "Have a Hitting Plan\nAn important part of being a great hitter is developing a plan that you can use when you step up to the plate.\nDeveloping Plate Discipline\nAlmost all players that hit for a high average show great plate discipline by not swinging at bad pitches. On the other hand hitters with low batting averages are often swinging at bad pitches.\nPlate discipline and having an approach at the plate are essential for development of a hitter. One of the most important lessons you can learn is that it's okay to strike out. You want to be a tough out, but too many young players fear striking out and end up swinging at bad pitches simply because they don't want to strike out. You need to understand that you will have a better chance of success if you go up to the plate with a plan. I heard Joe Morgan explain his approach at the plate and have tried to instill a similar approach with my players. Joe Morgan explained that with 0 strikes, he took 2 inches off of each side of the plate. So instead of the plate being 17 inches wide, he treated the plate as being 13 inches wide. With 1 strike he would use the whole plate and with 2 strikes he would add 2 inches to each side of the plate. I try to emphasize with my players that all strikes are not equal and explain that there is a certain zone that each hitter likes to hit the ball in.\nBelow are a couple of images that show you how the zone would grow using this approach.\nOn the other side of the equation, the zone can and should shrink as the number of balls increase. When you step up to the plate with 2 balls and 0 strikes, you should be looking for a pitch that is right where you want it. Why swing a pitch on the outside corner of the plate for example when you are ahead in the count? Seems simple when you think about it, but that's just the problem. Most hitters don't think about it before they step into the box!\nTo develop plate discipline:\nKnow the count hitting zone before you step up to the plate\nAlways pick up the ball right out of the pitchers hand\nAlways take full swings with good balance and follow through",

Our price is for a little while but the view lasts for eternity.",

        "raw_content": "The Tour of Ireland vs Kathy\nThe Tour of Ireland vs Kathy Ireland:\nOne is a former swimsuit model/actress (ok, so \u201cactress\u201d might be a stretch), the other is a former stage race that runs through the land of James Joyce, Guinness Stout, and hurling (it\u2019s a ball \u2018n stick game, not the result of too much stout).\nThe Tour of Ireland has been held in the month of August, off and on since 1953 (just barely more on than off, actually). In 1985, the race was renamed the Nissan International Classic. The race then enjoyed a stellar eight year run, capturing the height of Irish success in cycling. Legendary hardman Sean Kelly won the race a record 4 times, while countryman Stephen Roche finished 2nd in 1987, the year he won the Giro, the Tour, and the world championships. Interestingly, the race director during those years was Pat McQuaid, today\u2019s reigning\u2026oops, I meant current\u2026UCI president. Following a 15 year hiatus , the Tour of Ireland returned in 2007 but the economic turndown caused it to be shortened to a three-day event in 2009. In June of 2010, it was announced that finances were dire and the race was cancelled. Talk of a 2011 comeback came to naught, and presumedly there will be no 2012 version either.\nKathy Ireland first appeared in Sports Illustrated\u2019s Swimsuit Edition in 1984 and did so for another 12 years. She appeared on the cover 3 times, including the 25th anniversary edition which became the highest selling swimsuit issue ever. From Wikipedia: \u201cIn 1993, Ireland put her name on a line of socks. After they proved a best-seller for Kmart, the retailer gave Ireland her own clothing line. She then founded \u201cKathy Ireland Worldwide,\u201d a brand product marketing company in which she holds a majority stake. By 2004, Ireland was marketing products from 16 manufacturers, including those of Standard Furniture. Ireland\u2019s long-term exclusive contract with K-mart Corporation lasted until 2003, after which the company contracted with thousands of independent mid-tier retail stores for distribution. By 2005, KIWW products were sold at over 50,000 locations in 15 countries, generating an estimated $1.4 billion in retail sales. Ireland\u2019s annual take is thought to be around $10 million, which has prompted Forbes to name her the \u2018prototype for model-turned-mogul,\u2019 in an article about the trend of \u2018modelpreneurs.\u2019\u201d\nBorn: Tour of (1953), Kathy (1963) winner: Kathy (we\u2019re not talking about aged Scotch here)\nSport Illustrated covers: Tour of (0), Kathy (3) winner: Kathy (skin to win)\nFinancial status: Tour of (broke as f*** in 2010), Kathy ($10M net for 2010, corporate gross equal to 1% of Ireland GNP in 2010) winner: Kathy (one of these Irelands has a LOT more green)\nOverall: Kathy Ireland, who turns 49 this year, is dirty rich and still smoking hot.

        "raw_content": "Doing a week of an effective natural diet does not require drugs or slimming substances, but with a healthy diet and exercise. Doing a diet to lose weight in a short time is not easy. Instead, the diet should be generally done in a longer term because it will definitely have a better health effect.\nHowever, if it is really urgent, there is a natural way in a 1-week diet program that can be tried. Doing a short term diet should not often be done for health reasons. But if only doing this occasionally, the body can still tolerate it. Generally, the minimum time required in a diet program is about 2 weeks, as also suggested in a program of Mayo Diet. Even another diet program takes up to one month, whereas OCD diet requires up to 3 months.\nNatural diet program within one week can be carried out in various ways. Natural itself means how we can go on a diet without any interferences from slimming drugs or substances altogether. A natural way of doing this can be done by eating healthy foods, of course, with different portions, and also by doing sport. Well, maybe the way we would suggest in this article will be suitable for you who are looking to lose weight naturally within 1 week. Please read to this article until finished.\nHow to lose Weight Naturally in 1 Week\nDifferent ways to lose weight can be taken down quickly. From 1 week natural diet, to a variety of ways to consume supplements or chemical drugs where most experts said could help speed up the weight loss process. However, the final results obtained by each person are different. This is because there are certain factors that make the results from one person to another different. Consistency and seriousness of someone in a diet program is clearly a major factor that determines the success of a diet.\nThe basis of the one week natural diet program is actually the same as the general way or a traditional way to lose weight. However, it\u2019s just more intense, a shorter time, and also some adjustments. To be able to lose weight in a significant amount with a time of 1 week, try to follow some of the following suggestions.\nReducing Sugar and Carbohydrates\nReducing does not mean you are not allowed to eat them. It means one should only consume sugar and carbohydrates, as long as the intake is not exaggerated. When you start doing the diet, the first thing you do is to reduce the consumption of foods containing high sugar and high carbohydrate. Both of these substances could secrete the insulin hormone, which could accumulate the fat within the body. By reducing these two substances you can eliminate 5 kilograms of your weight in just one week if this is done consistently.\nThe 1 week natural diet strategy that you can try next is to eat more vegetables, protein and good fats. Basically, the human body requires approximately 20-50 grams of protein each day. The protein intake will make your metabolism performs better. To get the protein intake, you can get it from various sources of food which is certainly tasty and delicious. Best protein can be taken from white eggs, shrimp, salmon, beef, chicken, lobster and so on. With high protein intake, your metabolism will run more smoothly, including the fat burning in the body.\n2 thoughts on \u201cHere\u2019s How to Do An Effective Natural Diet in 1 Week\u201d\nThanks for the great article. I have tried this method by reducing carbohydrates and keep it for one month. However, will it successfully be done in only one week?\nBrad Nahill says:\nThank you Allysa,\nYes you can actually implement this method in one week. You will not only need to reduce the intake of carbohydrates, but you will also require to eat less sugar and also consume more protein in order to do this effectively.",

I've always wanted to be independent in my old age, and now I'm not, and I don't like it.\nI can understand your frustration; as I\u2019ve grown older, I too have missed the strength and independence I once had. I often think of Jesus\u2019 words to Peter concerning his latter years: \u201cWhen you are old\u2026 someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go\u201d (John 21:18).\nOld age inevitably brings limitations to us; they may be delayed in some people, but if we live long enough they\u2019ll catch up with us. That\u2019s simply the way life is, much as we try to fight it or deny it. But the real question is this: How will we deal with this? Will it be with anger and frustration and depression \u2014 or will it be with acceptance and contentment, even thanksgiving?\nInstead of being resentful toward God and blaming Him for what\u2019s happened to you, I hope instead that you\u2019ll see it as part of God\u2019s plan for this stage of your life. God\u2019s plan isn\u2019t always easy or pleasant \u2014 but it\u2019s right, because He knows what\u2019s best for us. It may be hard at first, but take time daily to thank Him for the gift of another day. May you be able to say with Paul, \u201cI have learned to be content whatever the circumstances\u201d (Philippians 4:11).\nAbove all, turn your mind toward your real home \u2014 which is heaven. Put your faith and trust in Christ, and then look forward to that day when you will be with Him forever.",

An immunoglobulin (Ig) is a glycoprotein with a Y-shape. The basic structure of a monomeric unit of antibody consists of two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains. In each of these chains, there are variable and constant regions. The immunoglobulin heavy chain, in particular, is the large polypeptide subunit. It can be used to classify the various isotypes (or classes) of immunoglobulins. In humans and other mammals, the five classes are: (1) immunoglobulin A (IgA), (2) immunoglobulin D (IgD), (3) immunoglobulin E (IgE), (4) immunoglobulin G (IgG), and (5) immunoglobulin M (IgM). The immunoglobulin A (IgA) has \u03b1 (alpha)-type of immunoglobulin heavy chain (thus, the acronym A). The light chain of IgA may either be kappa or lambda. Its molecular formula is (\u03b12 \u03ba2)n or (\u03b12\u03bb2)n. In humans, IgAs are of two main subclasses: IgA1 and IgA2.\nIgA occurs as monomer, dimer, trimer, or tetramer. However, the most prevalent form is a dimer. A dimeric IgA would have two functional units of antibody joined by a short J chain. A dimeric IgA is referred to as secretory IgA (sigA). sigAs are the major type of immunoglobulin present in tears, saliva, colostrum, sweat, and other mucous secretions, e.g. in gastrointestinal tract. sigAs are resistant to digestion, and thus, they are capable of providing local immunity in the gut. Unlike IgG, IgA is not capable of crossing the placenta.\nIgA also occurs in serum and is referred to as serum IgA. In the serum, IgA interacts with Fc\u03b1RI (one of the Fc receptors expressed on an immune effector cell), consequently initiating inflammatory reactions.\nAbbreviation/Acronym:\nRetrieved from \"https://www.biology-online.org/dictionary/index.php?title=Immunoglobulin_A&oldid=107853\"",

On the one hand, to foster collaboration between researchers, centres and companies, thus generating a dynamic and multidisciplinary community. And, on the other hand, to showcase capacities internationally, as the map of the science & technology infrastructures is the first tool of this type that provides full information on a country\u2019s science & technology infrastructures.\nAny researcher can now save time by avoiding the tedious process of contact different institutions to discover if an infrastructure is available. A simple search is all that is required to establish where an infrastructure is located, who the person in charge is, what the access protocol is, what service are offered or facilities are available, among other aspects.\nFurthermore, the science.eus information is structured according to the MERIL scheme, the European initiative to map openly accessible research infrastructures. This will allow both tools to be synchronised and provide greater international showcasing of our science & technology capacities.\nThe science.eus portal also provides other useful services for the scientific community. It provides direct access to the job offers on the www.sciencecareers.eu portal, the agenda of the key scientific events of the different institutions (seminars, scientific dissemination events, technical workshops), and even information on the Euraxess service centres for scientists who come to work in the Basque Country, and it will therefore be a benchmark portal for the Basque scientific community.",

The pair could well meet before the year is out \u2014 perhaps even as soon as UFC 229 in October.\nIf the fight does come together, Nurmagomedov plans to punish McGregor for his ego in the cage.\n\u201cI can\u2019t believe we\u2019re going to fight, because I really want this guy,\u201d Nurmagomedov told reporters at Saturday night\u2019s UFC on Fox 30 card (via MMAjunkie). \u201cMake him humble, a little bit teach him, and not only smash but change his face. I want to change his face. Of course, with face I can change his mind, too.\u201d\n\u201cI want a big drama show,\u201d Nurmagomedov added. \u201cA little bit [of talking] with him, tell him, \u2018I know how we have to do this.\u201d\nKhabib Nurmagomedov also shed a bit of light on his game plan for a potential showdown with the incredibly talented striker Conor McGregor. Unsurprisingly, Nurmagomedov will be looking for the takedown. If the takedown doesn\u2019t work, he\u2019ll try again and again, ideally tiring his foe out in the process.\n\u201cI have a little bit of a plan,\u201d Nurmagomedov said. \u201cMake him tired, make him look bad. Strong, he\u2019s very dangerous. Everybody knows this. I know this, too. If you think I\u2019m going to stay with him like I stayed with [Al] Iaquinta with my Muhammad Ali jab? No way, brother. No way. I\u2019m going to try to take him down. Even if he defend my takedown, he\u2019s going to be tired.\u201d\nWhatever the case, Khabib Nurmagomedov is happy Conor McGregor\u2019s legal situation shook out favorably, as the Irishman getting jail time would have deprived them of the opportunity to fight.\n\u201cTo be honest, inside my heart I am a little bit happy about this,\u201d Nurmagomedov said. \u201cBecause if he goes to jail, what happens? How I can catch him? How?

I also worked as an honors intern on different state-funded grant projects-using Arduino, ActionScript and a stress ball, I created a computer game for stroke victims of stroke to use as alternative physical therapy. In addition, I spent one summer abroad in Japan teaching English to Japanese students.\nAfter graduation, I spent two and a half years working remotely for WebMovement, a small design and development company located in central Wisconsin, Minneapolis and San Diego. When I\u2019m not coding, I can often be found studying Japanese, practicing for my next trip to Japan. I picked up Japanese my first year of high school and have been running (at the mouth) with it ever since. I also enjoy spending time with my dog, Kiba. He is a very spoiled Shiba Inu who even has his own Instagram account. We go on many hiking and swimming adventures together.\nAnything by Jim Jarmusch or Wes Anderson. I love quirky avant-garde films.\nA traditional Irish whiskey sour with egg whites and bitters\nI\u2019d love to go on a cross-country adventure through Great Britain\nFAVORITE SCENT\nFreshly brewed coffee in the morning\nBold pops of color.\nI start decorating for Halloween two months ahead of time.",

        "raw_content": "The Importance of a Pre-travel Clinic Visit at BMC\nThe Travel Clinic provides travelers\u2019 health services, including routine and travel vaccines, malaria prevention, travelers\u2019 diarrhea prevention and management, general advice about keeping healthy during travel, and diagnosis and treatment of travel-related illness.\nThe team can provide individualized services to travelers with special travel health needs, including infants and young children, travelers with special medical needs, immunocompromised travelers, pregnant travelers, those preparing to work or live overseas for prolonged periods, and business and adventure travelers. Sessions for groups of travelers such as students, volunteers, and missionaries can also be arranged.\nIn this segment, Natasha Hochberg, MD discusses the Travel Clinic team at Boston Medical Center and what you need to know before you go!\nLearn more about the Pre-travel Clinic at BMC\nNatasha Hochberg, MD\nNatasha Hochberg, MD works in the BMC Travel Clinic, which is part of the Center of Infectious Diseases. Her clinical interests include Travel Medicine, Tropical Medicine, Parasitology, Infectious Diseases, and HIV.\nLearn more about Natasha Hochberg, MD\nMelanie Cole (Host): The travel clinic at Boston Medical Center provides travelers health services including routine and travel vaccines, malaria prevention, travelers' diarrhea prevention, and management. My guest today is Dr. Natasha Hochberg. She's an infectious disease specialist and the co-director of the Boston Medical Center Travel Clinic. Welcome to the show, Dr. Hochberg. Who needs pre-travel advice?\nDr. Natasha Hochberg (Guest): Thank you for the invitation to join you. So, I would suggest that individuals that are traveling overseas, primarily those with underlying medical conditions, people that are at extremes of age, either they're very young or they're very old, should discuss their travel plans. So, you know, it's hard to sometimes say who exactly needs travel advice, so my best suggestion is to talk to your primary care doctor about it and say \"I'm planning a trip, do you think that I need to go see a travel clinic, or is there any advice that you need to provide me ahead of time?\" So, I would suggest that people do this routinely. If you're thinking about traveling, talk to your primary care doctor about it and see if you need referral, and especially if you have any medical problems, you really probably should be referred to a travel clinic for expert advice.\nMelanie: How soon before a trip should they come to the traveler\u2019s clinic and seek advice?\nDr. Hochberg: That's a great question. Oftentimes, we see people only a few days before they go, and that's fine. Better late than never. But, we do ideally see people about four to six weeks before they travel and the reason is this: there's certain vaccines that you need to have multiple doses of before you go in order for the vaccines to be effective. So, for example, with a rabies vaccine, you need to get three shots before you go and that takes about a month, just because they need to be separated in time. It takes about a month, so we want to make sure we see people at least a month before you go. This also gives us time to check to see your antibody levels, to see if you're previously protected from certain infections or not, to decide whether or not you really need to get certain vaccines. So, ideally, 4-6 weeks before you travel, you should be seen in a travel clinic.\nMelanie: What information would you like listeners to bring with them when they come to the travel clinic?\nDr. Hochberg: So, information that can be very helpful for us is the following: one is an itinerary of where you're going. I understand that plans change and people don't know all of the specifics but having a general sense of where you are going within a country can be very helpful because risks are different within a country. There might be malaria in certain parts of the country and not in others. So, the more information that you have about your itinerary, the better. The other things I would suggest bringing are a copy of your vaccine records. Sometimes this takes a little bit of digging to call a pediatrician or to call a primary care doctor but this information could be very helpful because it can mean that we can understand about what shots you've received and what shots you might need. The last thing I would say is just to check with your insurance company before you go to the travel clinic to doublecheck what vaccines might be covered and whether the visit is covered. Your itinerary, your vaccine record, and information from your insurance company are all useful things to bring with you.\nMelanie: And, what do you think, Dr. Hochberg, are some of the problems, the most common problems, that travelers encounter?\nDr. Hochberg: Yes, so there are a number of different things that we think about and I'll let you know sort of when we see people at the visit, we address a range of different things. So, we address and provide some counseling information, but we also provide vaccines, we provide--and this is a combination both of travel-specific vaccines as well as sometimes, people are just not up-to-date on their routine vaccinations with things like tetanus and so we can double-check about that and make sure people are up-to-date with routine vaccinations. We also will provide medicine to prevent you from getting malaria if you're going to a country that has malaria; medicine to treat traveler's diarrhea; and other medications, depending on one's exposure. So, your question is sort of what things do you have to worry about during a trip and what kinds of problems do people have? Recent studies have shown that, you know, quite commonly, people will have diarrhea during a trip and, obviously, this depends on exactly where you're going, but travelers' diarrhea is quite common. So, that is something that we definitely spend time talking about. Other things that are common are respiratory infections, either the flu or other respiratory infections and sometimes skin problems. So, what we can do during the visit is really try to talk about ways to prevent these things because it's common to get diarrhea but there's a number of things you can do during your trip to really reduce that risk. So, some of the time I spend with people at the travel clinic is to discuss measures to prevent food and water-borne transmissions. So, we recommend that people drink bottled water or boiled water, that they avoid any ice cubes, and this is particularly to going to sort of low- and middle-income countries, and that the mantra really about food for fruits and vegetables is boil it, peel it, or forget it. So, we tend to tell people not to eat their nice, leafy lettuce when you're on vacation in some of these countries, but to stick to sort of boiled or peeled vegetables. Other advice that we tend to give is really around insects and preventing transmission of insect-related illnesses. So, this includes things like malaria, but also Zika virus, that's been much in the news, and then we go through a variety of other sort of counseling measures that are quite important for people to think about that their primary care doctor might not have time to discuss. So, this includes transmission of things from you're swimming. Unfortunately, there are parasitic infections you can get from swimming and bacterial infections. We talk about car accidents and the real need to wear your seatbelts. I know it sounds like I'm being your mom, but it's really important in terms of wearing seat belts and because car accidents are actually the major cause of mortality of people dying when they travel. We talk about a number of other travel-related illnesses actually transmitted infections and things like that. So, I think in answer to your question, what things do we have to worry about? Well, there's a whole range of infectious diseases and non-infectious problems that one can encounter during your travel that we can try to help people avoid.\nMelanie: Do you think that people, and do you recommend or advise, that people look up, if they're going with children, that they look for walk-in clinics or doctors in the area that they're going, just so they can have those if they need them?\nDr. Hochberg: I think it's always a good idea, particularly if you\u2019re traveling with young children, or if you have underlying medical problems--if you take blood thinners or if you have cancer, or you have underlying medical problems--I always think it's a good idea to know where you could get care if you need to. So, the CDC, the Centers for Disease Control, has some of that information; the International Society of Travel Medicine has a list of reputable clinics in various countries and you can always check with your primary care provider if they have contacts in a certain area or with a travel medicine provider, but I do think that makes sense. The other thing that makes sense is to bring all of your prescriptions with you on board the plane and not to check any of those medicines in case your bags get lost which, unfortunately, happens. You don't want your medications to get lost. You always want to bring a copy of the actual prescription so that in case somebody looks at the bottles, they see that these are medicines that have been provided by a doctor. So, I do think that's important to look up where you can get care. The other thing that's really important to look up before you go is are there any alerts or ongoing outbreaks that one needs to know about in this destination? And so, again, the Centers for Disease Control has updated information about this. You can also go to the embassy information for the country that you're going to but I do recommend this for travelers before they go.\nMelanie: Dr. Hochberg, some people like to be traveling medicine cabinets. Do you recommend, and to parents, again, that might be traveling with children, that they bring a prophylactic antibiotic or prescription for one, or that they bring cold and flu medication with them in case in the country that they are going to it isn't so easily accessible?\nDr. Hochberg: So, this really depends on sort of where exactly you're going and who the child is. Definitely for countries where there is a risk of malaria, we do recommend bringing malaria medicine. Most of the time, we will recommend bringing a prescription or medication to presumptively treat traveler's diarrhea, if you have severe diarrhea associated with it. As for other medications, it depends a little bit on the risk and what you're going to be doing there. You know, obviously if you're going to be doing an adventure race somewhere where you could be exposed to water, then there's other antibiotics we might give you. The Centers for Disease Control, again, has a very nice list of what to consider packing in your medicine kit before you go, and things that are useful to bring with you. Again, these are topics that one can go over with the travel medicine provider.\nMelanie: And, do you want to see people post-trip and what would you like them to be aware of or to look for after their trip?\nDr. Hochberg: This is a really important point. So, the travel care really does not end before your visit. It's very important for patients and for doctors to know about the potential for travel-related illness. So, if you have a fever after coming back from an international trip, particularly one where you're going to a lower- or middle-income country, it's very important that your primary care doctor hear from you right away and that you probably get an urgent referral either to a travel and tropical medicine provider or that you go to the emergency room for evaluation. The thing to note, too, is that malaria doesn't always come on right away after travel, so even if it this is fever or illness that's come on months after travel, you need to let your doctor know that this might be that you traveled overseas, so that they can consider whether it might be travel-related. So, other things that one might consider contacting your doctor for are not only fever, but any diarrheal illness, particularly one that's lasting, particularly more than a few days. You probably want to let your doctor know that you just came back and you have this diarrheal illness. There's oftentimes sort of skin conditions that can be caused by international travel. So, definitely fever, and probably also diarrhea, particularly diarrhea that lasts, skin problems, and other concerning symptoms, I would recommend talking to your doctor and talking to them urgently and letting them know about the travel.\nMelanie: So, wrap it up for us, Dr. Hochberg, if you would, with your best advice for travelers about traveling safely and visiting the travel clinic at Boston Medical Center.\nDr. Hochberg: So, the things that I would say are number one, remember to talk about your travel with your primary care doctor. Two, seek a referral at a travel clinic, particularly if you have any underlying medical problems or you're going to a low- or middle-income country where there are travel-related illnesses. And three, try to get there within enough time that the travel medicine provider really has the time to give you the vaccines that you need. And then, the last is if you have any conditions, any symptoms that develop after your travel, really be sure to contact your doctor and let them know that you were traveling and you're sick.\nMelanie: Thank you so much for being with us today. It's really important information for listeners to hear and you're listening to Boston MedTalks and for more information on the travel clinic at Boston Medical Center, you can go to www.bmc.org/travelclinic. That's www.bmc.org/travelclinic. This is Melanie Cole. Thanks so much for listening.",

        "title": "Here's Why You Should Tune in to International Tax This Year | Bloomberg Tax",
        "raw_content": "Here's Why You Should Tune in to International Tax This Year\nThis year will bring us the Winter Olympics in South Korea, U.S. mid-term elections, and a U.K. royal wedding. Each event will draw a global audience, but tax directors at multinational companies will pay closer attention to other international matters.\nBloomberg Tax talked to five corporate tax directors about challenges they face in 2018. Here are five areas they\u2019re watching:\nThe new U.S. tax law (Pub. L. No. 115-97), signed Dec. 22, slashes the country\u2019s corporate tax rate to 21 percent from 35 percent, forcing companies to reassess their balance sheets.\nOverall, it will have a \u201csignificant\u201d effect by making the U.S. a more attractive place to do business, John Connors, tax director at telecommunications company Vodafone Group Plc, told Bloomberg Tax.\n\u201cWe therefore expect to see U.S.-domiciled tech companies potentially change their structures now so that they can get a sustainable effective low tax rate at home,\u201d Connors said by email. \u201cHow the EU seeks to tax the digital economy in response will be interesting given the need to encourage investment and innovation and without placing an undue burden on consumers.\u201d\nNon-U.S. companies active in the country, meanwhile, will spend the first half of 2018 calculating the effect of the new laws, Glyn Fullelove, head of tax at global events and publishing company Informa Plc, told Bloomberg Tax. In the U.K., British American Tobacco Plc, Royal Dutch Shell Plc, and BP Plc have all said in the past two months they will give more detail later this year on how their bottom lines are affected.\nThe Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development began an ambitious project in 2013 to re-write tax policy for multinational businesses, aiming to prevent them abusing mismatches in international tax laws to shift profits to offshore havens.\nResolving how to tax internet-based businesses remains an incomplete part of the 15-action plan to combat base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS). In April 2018, though, the OECD will deliver an interim report to the Group of 20 on its re-booted attempt to reconcile the matter amid an increasing number of digitized business operations. The final report will come in 2020.\nAhead of the report, the head of tax at Swedish clothing retailer Hennes & Mauritz AB warned on the risk of the OECD hampering companies that have both an online and physical presence.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re targeting just the internet companies, that\u2019s pretty separate\u201d to companies that have an online and physical presence, Erik Knijnenburg told Bloomberg Tax.\n\u201cIt\u2019s on that crossing where you can go wrong,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s the real challenge, and the real problem we see in the current discussions. I\u2019m a little bit afraid we\u2019ll get stuck in a spectrum here.\u201d\nGlobal Tax Reports\nWhile U.S.-headquartered multinationals have until the end of this year, more than 40 countries made multinationals based in their jurisdictions file global tax reports by Dec. 31, 2017.\nKnown as country-by-country reporting, the reports are the most widely adopted policy from the BEPS project. The measure aims to provide a clearer picture of companies\u2019 activities for each country in which they operate.\nMultinationals\u2019 country-by-country reports to the tax authority of their headquarter jurisdiction are currently private. Either through new legislation or data leaks, however, Vodafone\u2019s Connors and H&M\u2019s Knijnenburg are both expecting their companies\u2019 reports will become public. As a result, Vodafone and H&M plan to publish the reports themselves with explanatory notes to aid understanding in 2018.\nVodafone began filing annual tax transparency reports in 2013, and Connors told Bloomberg Tax that the Newbury, England-based business wanted to continue leading in this policy area. Vodafone publishing its country-by-country report will strengthen the company\u2019s \u201ccritical principle\u201d of trying to build trust in the business, the U.K. tax system, and the wider government, he added.\n\u201cPutting something out there to the public that is understandable is going to be a challenge, but we can\u2019t drown ourselves in technical jargon,\u201d Knijnenburg told Bloomberg Tax. \u201cYou need to do the storytelling, such as using explanatory notes, to make it both accessible and understandable.\u201d\nIn the past year, countries including Spain and Hungary have either introduced or announced plans to implement real-time tax reporting systems. While the challenge of replacing existing reporting systems slows down the pace of change for some governments, tax directors expect countries across the globe to use more automated reporting in 2018 and beyond.\n\u201cThere\u2019s an opportunity here for governments and businesses to work together to make a very efficient system,\u201d Fullelove said. \u201cThey could put into place a roadmap on what the end state would look like, and then figure out how we would get there.\u201d\nVodafone\u2019s Connors noted that tax authorities are using digital tax reporting systems more often and cited how they can boost efficiency. Yet early examples of these systems still demand a \u201cvery significant amount of manual data handling\u201d for both businesses and tax authorities, he said.\nFor Mariano Giralt, meanwhile, a London-based head of EMEA tax services at The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, the use of technology in the tax industry goes far beyond reporting systems.\n\u201cFor me, a great tax professional no longer has just a technical knowledge of tax\u2014they are also curious about digital transformation, and they understand things like the digital ledger, blockchain, artificial intelligence, data analytics and robotics,\u201d he said. \u201cAll of these are having some impact in what we do, and we need to embrace them.\u201d\nThe European Union has made news worldwide over its state aid investigations into Apple Inc., McDonald\u2019s Corp. and, most recently, Sweden-based furniture business IKEA.\nOn top of these investigations, tax directors cited the EU\u2019s re-launched plans to harmonize the rules on taxation of multinational companies as a topic they will monitor during 2018.\n\u201cThe outcome of various EU state aid challenges to tax law and administration, and any progress on the proposed Common Consolidated Corporate tax base, will be interesting in terms of the impact on the flexibility and focus of countries\u2019 tax policy in future,\u201d Vodafone\u2019s Connors said.\n\u201cWe need to remember that, if we want to synchronize the system, the profit cake doesn\u2019t get any bigger,\u201d H&M\u2019s Knijnenburg said about the EU\u2019s proposal for a Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base. \u201cInstead, it\u2019s the country that beeps the loudest that gets the biggest share of the cake.\u201d\nBy Ben Stupples, Senior Reporter, International Tax\nAccess even more in-depth analysis and expertise with a free trial to the Premier International Tax Library.",

        "raw_content": "Fighting Elder Financial Abuse, Protecting Retirement Savings\nA recent Huffington Post article details the plight of Americans over the age of 50, many of whom have been the victims of financial exploitation at one point or another. Even the late Mickey Rooney acknowledged his own experience with financial abuse before a Special Senate Committee on Aging. The reality is that an estimated one in two elderly Americans has been financially exploited, or knows someone who has been a victim of financial abuse. The average loss from each incident of financial exploitation is more than $120,000.\nAs the population of retired and aging Americans continues to grow, older citizens have increasingly turned to their own financial institutions for help. Studies show that four out of every five older Americans want their banks to help prevent financial exploitation of seniors. Since this demographic holds approximately two-thirds of all assets held by banks and other financial institutions, they have responded to this steadily increasing problem. In fact, financial abuse is a problem for financial institutions, too. Bank losses exceed $1 billion in deposits each year as the direct result of financial exploitation of older Americans.\nIn response, AARP and the financial industry have joined forces to create the BankSafe Initiative, which is designed to protect seniors from financial exploitation and keep their retirement savings safe. Some financial institutions already have taken relatively simple steps to help protect their aging clients. For instance, Wells Fargo Advisors implemented a client emergency form, which allows financial advisors to contact a third party if they suspect an individual has developed dementia or difficulties handling their finances on their own. Likewise, the Oregon Banking Association, in conjunction with other local organizations, developed a training kit for bank employees to help them spot potential financial exploitation of seniors. Since implementing the training kit, bank reports of abuse have increased exponentially.\nAt Boller & Vaughan, we have investigated countless allegations of elder abuse, no matter what type of circumstances they entail. Allow us to look into the facts and circumstances surrounding your case, discuss your options, and help you determine the most appropriate course of action for you and your family. Contact the Wisconsin nursing home abuse attorneys of Boller & Vaughan, and learn how we can help.",

Both organizations interact regularly, with patients and doctors zipping back and forth between sites.\n\u201cThat connection is really, really important, and until now we haven\u2019t paid much attention to it,\u201d said Beth Flanagan, director of Memphis Medical Center.\nThe charrette is one piece of a larger public-private effort to revitalize the Medical Center.\nTwo housing projects on the northern and southern end of the district \u2013 Lamar Terrace on Lamar and Dixie Homes on Poplar \u2013 are being transformed into mixed-income residential neighborhoods with the help of two Federal Home VI grants.\nAnd the transportation bill passed recently by Congress contained $5 million for streetscape improvements in the Medical Center area.\n\u201cThis is about creating a better community,\u201d Flanagan said. \u201cWe don\u2019t want blighted neighborhoods, and there is no reason for families to live in an environment like that in this country.\n\u201cWe also want to create the best community for researchers to come and work.\u201d\nThe ultimate goal is transforming the Medical Center into a world-class research and development zone with an emphasis on the growing field of biotechnology.\n\u201cWe think about 35 percent of all new jobs created last year were in the biotech sector,\u201d said Mark Herbison, senior vice president for economic development at the Memphis Regional Chamber. \u201cThat\u2019s really important because these jobs typically pay better, have better benefits and better work environments.\u201d\nThe health care industry is a major component of the region\u2019s economic-development engine.\nA 2003 study by the Methodist LeBonheur Center for Healthcare Economics at Fogelman College of Business and Economics at The University of Memphis found that about $3 out of every $10 of local GDP are provided by health care.\nIntown residents were thrilled about the prospect of being involved in the potential revitalization of their neighborhood.\n\u201cThe charrette process ensures that the residents are heard and that we are part of the revitalization efforts,\u201d said Celestine Hill, a resident and community activist. \u201cI have lived here most of my life, and I welcome any opportunity that will bring back the pride and ownership that once characterized this area.\u201d\nTwelve fellows from the Knight Program for Community Building at the University of Miami will conduct the charrette.\nElizabeth Plater-Zyberk and Charles Bohl will lead the effort.\nPlater-Zyberk is a founder of the Congress for New Urbanism, which advocates inner-city neighborhoods that are walkable, diverse and accessible to shops, parks and jobs. Plater-Zyberk is dean of the University of Miami School of Architecture.\nBohl is director of the Knight Program of Community Building at the University of Miami.\n\u201cIt is an excellent opportunity to expand conversations about good urban design while leveraging existing and potential development in a neighborhood that is both rich with history and key to future success of the biomedical industry in Memphis,\u201d said Russell Bloodworth Jr., executive vice president of Boyle Investment Co. and 2006 Knight Fellow.\n\u201cWe knew this would be a great way for UrbanArt to serve as a catalyst for elevating the quality of design in our city, confirming the validity of the marriage of art, design and community involvement,\u201d said Carissa Hussong, the director of the UrbanArt Commission.",

        "raw_content": "New Rules for Tax Treatment of Motor Vehicle Use in 2018 by Flor Escudero, CPA\nThe use of a motor vehicle can sometimes provide individuals and businesses with tax benefits. Here is what taxpayers need to know for 2018.\nIncreased Standard Mileage Rates\nTaxpayers have the option to deduct the actual use of their cars, vans, pickups and panel trucks for multiple purposes or, they may simply apply the standard mileage rates, which the IRS resets annually. Following are the standard mileage rates for 2018:\n54.5 cents for every mile driven for business purposes,\n18 cents per mile driven for medical purposes, and\n14 cents per mile driven in service of a charitable organization, including travel to and from volunteer work\nTaxpayers may not use these rates for more than four motor vehicles they use simultaneously. Nor may they use the business travel rate if they previously used a depreciation method under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System or after they claimed a Section 179 deduction for that vehicle.\nTemporary Elimination of Deductions Other Vehicle Expenses\nBetween Jan. 1, 2018, and Dec. 31, 2025, the IRS will not permit taxpayers to deduct job-related moving expenses, including the miles a taxpayer travels in his or her automobile as part of the move, unless the taxpayer is a member of the Armed Forces of the United States.\nIn addition, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act temporarily eliminates all un-reimbursed employee expenses such as uniforms, union dues and the deduction for business-related meals, entertainment and travel. Therefore, taxpayers may not apply the business standard mileage rate to claim an itemized deduction for un-reimbursed employee travel expenses.",

        "raw_content": "Creating Marketing Calm in a Sea of Content Chaos\nIf you need more evidence that the media landscape is more fragmented than ever, just take a snapshot of your own life.\nIf you\u2019re like many people, you might check your email on your smartphone and take a quick look at Facebook, Instagram or Twitter even before you roll out of bed in the morning. At breakfast, you read the newspaper or watch the morning news on television. On your way to work, you listen to the radio in your car, perhaps making a quick stop at the supermarket to pick up something for lunch. When you get to the office, you scan the latest breaking news on your computer and maybe even check in on Foursquare...\nAll of these channels have a significant impact not only on consumers, but on the businesses that advertise through them. The challenge for marketers is to take all of these moving parts and somehow create a unified media strategy.\nToo often, the marketing \u201csolution\u201d ends up being as fragmented and complicated as the challenge it\u2019s supposed to overcome. Rather than working together, each tool remains isolated in its own universe, creating duplication of efforts, eating up resources and potentially resulting in message inconsistency and confusion. Marketing Automation, Ad Builders, Market Resource Management (MRM), Market Asset Management (MAM), Marketing Automation (MAM): it can be overwhelming just reading the names of these solutions, let alone trying to understand what each does and how it\u2019s different.\nWith tiered or distributed sales and marketing channels comes an additional level of complexity. Each franchisee or channel partner has their own unique set of local marketing issues that need to be addressed without straying from the brand. No wonder it\u2019s called \u201ccontent chaos.\u201d\nOur goal at Brandmuscle is to cut through this chaos, simplifying local marketing through a holistic, integrated approach with a robust software platform and on-demand professional support that together solve each piece of the distributed marketing puzzle. It may seem counter-intuitive, but simplicity makes you a much more (not less) powerful marketer. You and your team are more likely to use something that\u2019s easy to use. And since we are a cross-medium solution, the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts. When franchisees and distributors are able to leverage a variety of media channels while also staying on-message and protecting the brand, great things happen for our clients. And we like that.",

        "raw_content": "Campaigners and shoppers on Broadmead handed a giant letter of complaint signed by more than 200 shoppers to a Sainsbury\u2019s store manager on Saturday 28 October in protest of the supermarket\u2019s decision to abandon the Fairtrade mark on a range of its own-brand teas.\nMembers and supporters of Bristol Fairtrade Network gathered outside the city centre supermarket, collecting signatures for the larger than life letter and distributing tea bags that do carry the Fairtrade mark from rival supermarkets. The group\u2019s protest aimed to raise awareness of Sainsbury\u2019s decision to replace the Fairtrade Mark on its Red Label and selected other teas with its own \u2018Fairly Traded\u2019 label.\nFairtrade guarantees that tea producers receive a premium payment in addition to the price of their tea, which they can use in to invest in their businesses and communities as they choose. Bristol Fairtrade campaigners are concerned that the equivalent premium offered by Sainsbury\u2019s takes control away from tea producers, with suppliers instead having to apply to a UK-based board for funding.\nProtesters also expressed anger that the \u2018Fairly Traded\u2019 standards are controlled by Sainsbury\u2019s themselves, rather than an independent board. Tea farmers will not be represented in the scheme\u2019s governance, in contrast to Fairtrade certification where producers have a 50% stake in the scheme and are part of deciding how standards are set, monitored and reviewed.\nSpeaking at the protest, Bristol Fairtrade Network Coordinator Danni Rochman said:\n\u201cThere\u2019s a real issue here of lack of transparency and Sainsbury\u2019s customers being misled. The fact is that this new \u2018Fairly Traded\u2019 scheme doesn\u2019t deliver the same guarantees, and we\u2019re worried that customers on their weekly shop won\u2019t realise that the tea they\u2019re buying doesn\u2019t give farmers the same deal as it used to under Fairtrade certification.\u201d She added, \u201cBristol is a leading Fairtrade city, and we\u2019re here to make sure Bristol shoppers are aware, and ask them to add their voices to the growing demand for Sainsbury\u2019s to move back to Fairtrade.\u201d\nBristol was first awarded Fairtrade status in 2005 and the city is considered one of the most active Fairtrade cities in the UK, playing host to the International Fair Trade Towns Conference in 2015 as part of the Green Capital celebrations. The Bristol Fairtrade Network campaigns to raise awareness in the city of the continuing need for Fairtrade in global trade, and to show people that simple shopping choices have the power to change lives in producer nations. The Network hosts the annual South West Fairtrade Business Awards, which encourages businesses across the region to support Fairtrade in the workplace.\nSaturday\u2019s protest formed part of a national day of action supported by CAFOD, Christian Aid, The Women\u2019s Institute, Traidcraft Exchange and Tearfund, which was called after an open letter to Sainsbury\u2019s sent in May this year from East & Central Africa and Southern Africa Networks of Fairtrade Africa \u2013 representing over 220,000 African tea producers \u2013 failed to convince the supermarket giant to reconsider the adoption of the new scheme.\nBritish tea drinkers account for three quarters of Fairtrade tea sales globally, and Sainsbury\u2019s is the world\u2019s largest retailer of Fairtrade.\nA spokesman for CAFOD said:\n\u201cBuying Fairtrade tea is a proven way to make a difference every time we drink a cup of tea, and the action by Bristol Fairtrade Network shows the mark is widely supported in the city and indeed, across the country.\n\u201cSainsbury\u2019s have been a leading retailer of Fairtrade products, making a real difference to the lives of tea farmers and their families in some of the world\u2019s poorest countries. We\u2019d like them to reconsider this decision to remove the Fairtrade mark from their own-brand tea.\u201d\nAn online petition asking Sainsbury\u2019s to keep the Fairtrade mark has already attracted over 100,000 signatures: https://www.change.org/dontditchfairtrade\nFor more information, please contact Fairtrade Network Project Coordinator Danni Rochman: coordinator@bristolfairtrade.org.uk\nwww.bristolfairtrade.org.uk\ntwitter.com/FTBristol\nfacebook.com/BristolFairtrade",

        "raw_content": "Robert V. Daniels\nAlternative Title: Lev Davidovich Bronshtein\nLeon Trotsky, byname of Lev Davidovich Bronshtein, (born November 7 [October 26, Old Style], 1879, Yanovka, Ukraine, Russian Empire\u2014died August 21, 1940, Coyoac\u00e1n, Mexico), communist theorist and agitator, a leader in Russia\u2019s October Revolution in 1917, and later commissar of foreign affairs and of war in the Soviet Union (1917\u201324). In the struggle for power following Vladimir Ilich Lenin\u2019s death, however, Joseph Stalin emerged as victor, while Trotsky was removed from all positions of power and later exiled (1929). He remained the leader of an anti-Stalinist opposition abroad until his assassination by a Stalinist agent.\nWho was Leon Trotsky?\nLeon Trotsky was a communist theorist and Soviet politician. He played a key role in the Russian Revolution of 1917. During this time, Trotsky directed the Soviet military forces. He later served as the Soviet commissar of foreign affairs (1917\u201318) and of war (1918\u201324). After the death of Vladimir Lenin in 1924, Trotsky was gradually removed from power. In 1929 he was exiled by his chief rival in government, Joseph Stalin.\nLearn about this political and economic doctrine.\nLearn about the Russian Revolution of 1917.\nWhat was Leon Trotsky\u2019s role in the October Revolution?\nLeon Trotsky\u2014once a vocal critic of Lenin and the Bolshevik Party\u2014joined the Bolsheviks in August 1917. Trotsky quickly rose to a position of power in the party: just before the October Revolution, he was elected to the Bolshevik Central Committee. During the revolution, Trotsky oversaw Soviet military operations in Petrograd (now St. Petersburg), the capital of the Russian Empire. By early November, Trotsky had all but sacked the capital city. On November 13, ousted liberal politician Aleksandr Kerensky tried to retake Petrograd with loyal troops. Kerensky\u2019s forces met Trotsky\u2019s at the Battle of Pulkovo. Trotsky defeated Kerensky, and the Bolsheviks achieved total control of Petrograd.\nRead more below: Leadership in the Revolution of 1917\nRead about the history and development of the Bolshevik Party.\nWhat did Leon Trotsky believe?\nLeon Trotsky was a communist with a unique worldview. Trotsky did not believe an economic system could exist in isolation. He believed that an economic system must be seen and understood as a world system rather than as a national one. Thus, in Trotsky\u2019s view, the lasting success of a socialist revolution (e.g., the October Revolution) depends on revolutions in other countries. Trotsky\u2019s view\u2014which he called \u201cpermanent revolution\u201d\u2014was the opposite of Stalin\u2019s: Stalin believed that a socialist revolution could be achieved \u201cin one country,\u201d independent of other countries.\nRead more about Leon Trotsky\u2019s theory of permanent revolution.\nLearn about different types of economic systems.\nWhat was the relationship between Leon Trotsky and Joseph Stalin?\nLeon Trotsky and Joseph Stalin were political rivals. After Vladimir Lenin, the first Soviet head of state, suffered a stroke in early 1923, Trotsky and Stalin engaged in a contest for power. Stalin quickly gained the upper hand: in April 1923 he consolidated his hold on the Bolshevik Central Committee. Trotsky\u2019s attempts to attack Stalin thereafter were largely unsuccessful. Still, the contest endured into the late 1920s. Stalin eventually emerged as its victor and gained virtual dictatorial control over the Soviet Union. Trotsky, on the other hand, was expelled from the Bolshevik Party (1927), exiled (1928), and banished from the territory of the Soviet Union (1929).\nRead more below: The struggle for the succession\nLearn more about Joseph Stalin, secretary-general of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (1922\u201353) and premier of the Soviet state (1941\u201353).\nHow did Leon Trotsky die?\nAfter his exile, Leon Trotsky sought asylum in Mexico. He settled into a house in Coyoac\u00e1n in 1936. In May 1940, men armed with machine guns attacked his house. Trotsky survived the incident. A second assassination attempt took place some three months later. On August 20, 1940, Spanish communist Ram\u00f3n Mercader fatally struck Trotsky with an ice pick. It is generally believed that Mercader was acting on orders from Trotsky\u2019s rival, Joseph Stalin.\nRead more below: Exile and assassination\nEarly life, education, and revolutionary career\nTrotsky\u2019s father, David Bronshtein, was a farmer of Russified Jewish background who had settled as a colonist in the steppe region, and his mother, Anna, was of the educated middle class. He had an older brother and sister; two other siblings died in infancy. At the age of eight, he was sent to school in Odessa, where he spent eight years with the family of his mother\u2019s nephew, a liberal intellectual. When he moved to Nikolayev in 1896 to complete his schooling, he was drawn into an underground socialist circle and introduced to Marxism. After briefly attending the University of Odessa, he returned to Nikolayev to help organize the underground South Russian Workers\u2019 Union.\n\u2026permanent revolution first expounded by Leon Trotsky (1879\u20131940), one of the leading theoreticians of the Russian Bolshevik Party and a leader in the Russian Revolution. Trotskyism was to become the primary theoretical target of Stalinism (q.v.) in Russian Communist circles in the 1920s and 1930s.\nArrested in January 1898 for revolutionary activity, Bronshtein spent four and a half years in prison and in exile in Siberia, during which time he married his coconspirator Aleksandra Sokolovskaya and fathered two daughters. He escaped in 1902 with a forged passport bearing the name Trotsky, which he adopted as his revolutionary pseudonym. His wife remained behind, and the separation became permanent. Trotsky made his way to London, where he joined the group of Russian Social-Democrats working with Vladimir Ulyanov (Lenin) on the revolutionary newspaper Iskra (\u201cThe Spark\u201d).\nAt the Second Congress of the Russian Social-Democratic Workers\u2019 Party, held in Brussels and London in July 1903, Trotsky sided with the Menshevik faction\u2014advocating a democratic approach to socialism\u2014against Lenin and the Bolsheviks. Shortly before this, in Paris, Trotsky had met and married Natalya Sedova, by whom he subsequently had two sons, Lev and Sergey.\nUpon the outbreak of revolutionary disturbances in 1905, Trotsky returned to Russia. He became a leading spokesman of the St. Petersburg Soviet (council) of Workers\u2019 Deputies when it organized a revolutionary strike movement and other measures of defiance against the tsarist government. In the aftermath, Trotsky was jailed and brought to trial in 1906. While incarcerated, Trotsky wrote one of his major works, \u201cResults and Prospects,\u201d setting forth his theory of permanent revolution.\nIn 1907, after a second exile to Siberia, Trotsky once again escaped. He settled in Vienna and supported himself as a correspondent in the Balkan Wars of 1912\u201313. At the outbreak of World War I, Trotsky joined the majority of Russian Social-Democrats who condemned the war and refused to support the war effort of the tsarist regime. He moved to Switzerland and then to Paris. His antiwar stance led to his expulsion from both France and Spain. He reached New York City in January 1917, where he joined the Bolshevik theoretician Nikolay Bukharin in editing the Russian-language paper Novy Mir (\u201cThe New World\u201d).\nLeadership in the Revolution of 1917\nTrotsky hailed the outbreak of revolution in Russia in February (March, New Style) as the opening of the permanent revolution he had predicted. He reached Petrograd in mid-May and assumed the leadership of a left-wing Menshevik faction. Following the abortive July Days uprising, Trotsky was arrested in the crackdown on the Bolshevik leadership carried out by Aleksandr Kerensky\u2019s liberal government. In August, while still in jail, Trotsky was formally admitted to the Bolshevik Party and was also elected to membership on the Bolshevik Central Committee. He was released from prison in September and shortly afterward was elected chairman of the Petrograd Soviet of Workers\u2019 and Soldiers\u2019 Deputies.\nWhen fighting was precipitated by an ineffectual government raid early on November 6 (October 24, Old Style), Trotsky took a leading role in directing countermeasures for the soviet, while reassuring the public that his Military Revolutionary Committee meant only to defend the Congress of Soviets. Governmental authority crumbled quickly, and Petrograd was largely in Bolshevik hands by the time Lenin reappeared from the underground on November 7 to take direct charge of the Revolution and present the Congress of Soviets with an accomplished fact when it convened next day.\nTrotsky continued to function as the military leader of the Revolution when Kerensky vainly attempted to retake Petrograd with loyal troops. He organized and supervised the forces that broke Kerensky\u2019s efforts at the Battle of Pulkovo on November 13. Immediately afterward he joined Lenin in defeating proposals for a coalition government including Mensheviks and Socialist Revolutionaries.\nRole in Soviet government\nAs foreign commissar, Trotsky\u2019s first charge was to implement the Bolsheviks\u2019 program of peace by calling for immediate armistice negotiations among the warring powers. Germany and its allies responded, and in mid-December peace talks were begun at Brest-Litovsk, though Trotsky continued vainly to invite support from the Allied governments. In January 1918 Trotsky entered into the peace negotiations personally and shocked his adversaries by turning the talks into a propaganda forum. He then recessed the talks and returned to Petrograd to argue against acceptance of Germany\u2019s annexationist terms, even though Lenin had meanwhile decided to pay the German price for peace and thus buy time for the Soviet state. Between Lenin\u2019s position and Bukharin\u2019s outright call for revolutionary war, Trotsky proposed the formula \u201cno war, no peace.\u201d When the Germans resumed their offensive in mid-February, the Bolshevik Central Committee was compelled to make a decision; Trotsky and his followers abstained from the vote, and Lenin\u2019s acceptance of the German terms was endorsed.\nTrotsky, LeonLeon Trotsky reviewing troops of the Red Guard c. 1918. Bain News Service/Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (LC-DIG-ggbain-33302)\nFollowing the conclusion of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, Trotsky resigned as foreign commissar, turning the office over to Georgy Chicherin, and was immediately made commissar of war, theretofore a committee responsibility. As war commissar, Trotsky faced the formidable task of building a new Red Army out of the shambles of the old Russian army and preparing to defend the communist government against the imminent threats of civil war and foreign intervention. Trotsky chose to concentrate on developing a small but disciplined and professionally competent force. His abandonment of the revolutionary ideal of democratization and guerrilla tactics prompted much criticism of his methods among other communists. He was particularly criticized for recruiting former tsarist officers (\u201cmilitary specialists\u201d) and putting them to work under the supervision of communist military commissars. Trotsky\u2019s military policies were resisted unsuccessfully by a coalition of ultraleft purists and rival party leaders, notably Stalin, with whom Trotsky had an acrimonious clash over the defense of the city of Tsaritsyn (later Stalingrad, now Volgograd). Trotsky\u2019s approach was, however, vindicated by the success of the Red Army in turning back attacks by the anticommunist White armies in 1918 and 1919.\nWith the triumph of the communist forces and the end of the Russian Civil War in 1920, Trotsky, retaining his office as commissar of war, turned his attention to the economic reconstruction of Russia. He first proposed a relaxation of the stringent centralization of War Communism to allow market forces to operate. Rejected in this, he endeavoured to apply military discipline to the economy, using soldiers as labour armies and attempting to militarize the administration of the transportation system.\nDuring the Civil War and War Communism phase of the Soviet regime, Trotsky was clearly established as the number-two man next to Lenin. He was one of the initial five members of the Politburo when that top Communist Party policy-making body was created in 1919. In intellectual power and administrative effectiveness, he was Lenin\u2019s superior and did not hesitate to disagree with him, but he lacked facility in political manipulation to win party decisions. Trotsky took a prominent part in the launching of the Comintern in 1919 and wrote its initial manifesto.\nIn the winter of 1920\u201321 widespread dissension broke out over the policies of War Communism, not only among the populace but among the party leadership as well. The point at issue in the controversy was the future role of the trade unions. The utopian left wing wanted the unions to administer industry; Lenin and the cautious wing wanted the unions confined to supervising working conditions; Trotsky and his supporters tried to reconcile radicalism and pragmatism by visualizing administration through unions representing the central state authority.\nThe crisis came to a head in March 1921, with agitation for democracy within the party on the one hand and armed defiance represented by the naval garrison at Kronshtadt on the other. At this point Trotsky sided with Lenin, commanding the forces that suppressed the Kronshtadt Rebellion and backing the suppression of open factional activity in the party. Trotsky accepted Lenin\u2019s retreat from ideal communism in favour of the New Economic Policy, including his conventional view of the trade unions. This degree of accord, however, did not prevent Trotsky from losing a substantial degree of political influence at the 10th Party Congress in March 1921.\nThe struggle for the succession\nWhen Lenin was stricken with his first cerebral hemorrhage in May 1922, the question of eventual succession to the leadership of Russia became urgent. Trotsky, owing to his record and his charismatic qualities, was the obvious candidate in the eyes of the party rank and file, but jealousy among his colleagues on the Politburo prompted them to combine against him. As an alternative, the Politburo supported the informal leadership of the troika composed of Grigory Zinovyev, Lev Kamenev, and Stalin.\nTrotsky, LeonLeon Trotsky. George Grantham Bain Collection/Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (Digital File Number: LC-DIG-ggbain-28899)\nIn the winter of 1922\u201323 Lenin recovered partially and turned to Trotsky for assistance in correcting the errors of the troika, particularly in foreign trade policy, the handling of the national minorities, and reform of the bureaucracy. In December 1922, warning in his then secret \u201cTestament\u201d of the danger of a split between Trotsky and Stalin, Lenin characterized Trotsky as a man of \u201cexceptional abilities\u201d but \u201ctoo far-reaching self-confidence and a disposition to be too much attracted by the purely administrative side of affairs.\u201d Just before he was silenced by a final stroke in March 1923, Lenin invited Trotsky to open an attack on Stalin, but Trotsky chose to bide his time, possibly contemplating an alliance against Zinovyev. Stalin moved rapidly to consolidate his hold on the Central Committee at the 12th Party Congress in April 1923.\nBy fall, alarmed by inroads of the secret police among party members and efforts to weaken his control of the war commissariat, Trotsky decided to strike out against the party leadership. In October he addressed a wide-ranging critique to the Central Committee, stressing especially the violation of democracy in the party and the failure to develop adequate economic planning. Reforms were promised, and Trotsky responded with an open letter detailing the direction they should take. This, however, served only as the signal for a massive propaganda counterattack against Trotsky and his supporters on grounds of factionalism and opportunism. At this critical moment Trotsky fell ill of an undiagnosed fever and could take no personal part in the struggle. Because of Stalin\u2019s organizational controls, the party leadership easily won, and the \u201cNew Course\u201d controversy was terminated at the 13th Party Conference in January 1924 (the first substantially stage-managed party assembly) with the condemnation of the Trotskyist opposition as a Menshevik-like illegal factional deviation. Lenin\u2019s death a week later only confirmed Trotsky\u2019s isolation. Convalescing on the Black Sea coast, Trotsky was deceived about the date of the funeral, failed to return to Moscow, and left the scene to Stalin. His eulogy for the late party leader was, in effect, delivered in a biography of Lenin that Trotsky wrote for the 13th edition (1926) of the Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica.\nAttacks on Trotsky did not cease. When the 13th Party Congress, in May 1924, repeated the denunciations of his violations of party discipline, Trotsky vainly professed his belief in the omnipotence of the party. The following fall he took a different tack in his essay The Lessons of October 1917, linking the opposition of Zinovyev and Kamenev to the October Revolution with the failure of the Soviet-inspired German communist uprising in 1923. The party leadership replied with a wave of denunciation, counterposing Trotskyism to Leninism, denigrating Trotsky\u2019s role in the Revolution, and denouncing the theory of permanent revolution as a Menshevik heresy. In January 1925 Trotsky was removed from the war commissariat.\nEarly in 1926, following the split between the Stalin-Bukharin leadership and Zinovyev-Kamenev group and the denunciation of the latter at the 14th Party Congress, Trotsky joined forces with his old adversaries Zinovyev and Kamenev to resume the political offensive. For a year and a half this \u201cUnited Opposition\u201d grasped at every opportunity to put its criticisms before the party membership, despite the increasingly severe curbs being placed on such discussion. Again they stressed the themes of party democracy and economic planning, condemned the leadership\u2019s concessions to bourgeois elements, and denounced Stalin\u2019s theory of \u201csocialism in one country\u201d as a pretext for abandoning world revolution.\nThe response of the leadership was a rising tide of official denunciation, supplemented by an anti-Semitic whispering campaign. In October 1926 Trotsky was expelled from the Politburo, and a year later he and Zinovyev were dropped from the Central Committee. After an abortive attempt at a demonstration on the 10th anniversary of the Revolution, the two were expelled from the party.\nExile and assassination\nIn January 1928 Trotsky and his principal followers were exiled to remote parts of the Soviet Union, Trotsky himself being assigned to Alma-Ata (now Almaty) in Central Asia. In January 1929 Trotsky was banished from the territory of the Soviet Union. He was initially received by the government of Turkey and domiciled on the island of Prinkipo (now B\u00fcy\u00fckada). He plunged into literary activity there and completed his autobiography and his history of the Russian Revolution.\nIn 1933 Trotsky secured permission to move to France. After Hitler\u2019s victory in Germany, Trotsky gave up the hope of reforming the Communist International and called on his followers to establish their own revolutionary parties and form a Fourth International. This movement (whose American branch was the Socialist Workers\u2019 Party) proved to be little more than a shadow organization, although a small founding conference was officially held in France in 1938.\nIn 1935 Trotsky was compelled to move to Norway, and in 1936, under Soviet pressure, he was forced to seek asylum in Mexico, where he settled at Coyoac\u00e1n. He was represented as the principal conspirator, in absentia, in the treason trials of former communist opposition leaders held in Moscow (1936\u201338). The evidence of treasonable plotting, however, was later proved to be fictitious.\nCoyoac\u00e1n, Mexico: Leon Trotsky's houseLeon Trotsky's house in Coyoac\u00e1n, Mexico. Rod Waddington (CC-BY-2.0)\nCoyoac\u00e1n, Mexico: Leon Trotsky's houseThe study in Leon Trotsky's house, Coyoac\u00e1n, Mexico. The home was the site of his assassination in 1940. Vasenka Photography (CC-BY-2.0)\nIn May 1940, men armed with machine guns attacked his house, but Trotsky survived. Some three months later, however, Ram\u00f3n Mercader, a Spanish communist who had won the confidence of the Trotsky household, fatally struck him with an ice pick. The Soviet government disclaimed any responsibility, and Mercader was sentenced to the maximum 20-year term under Mexican law.\nTrotsky was undoubtedly the most brilliant intellect brought to prominence by the Russian Revolution, outdistancing Lenin and other theoreticians both in the range of his interests and in the imaginativeness of his perceptions. He was an indefatigable worker, a rousing public speaker, and a decisive administrator. On the other hand, Trotsky was not successful as a leader of men, partly because he allowed his brilliance and arrogance to antagonize the lesser lights in the communist movement. Perhaps he fatally compromised himself when he became a Bolshevik in 1917, subordinating himself to Lenin\u2019s leadership and accepting the methods of dictatorship that he had previously condemned. Had Trotsky won the struggle to succeed Lenin, the character of the Soviet regime would almost certainly have been substantially different, particularly in foreign policy, cultural policy, and the extent of terroristic repression. Trotsky\u2019s failure, however, seems to have been almost inevitable, considering his own qualities and the conditions of authoritarian rule by the Communist Party organization.\nRivera, Diego: Man, Controller of the UniverseLeon Trotsky; detail of Man, Controller of the Universe, a mural by Diego Rivera, 1934; in the Palace of Fine Arts, Mexico City.

        "raw_content": "On location: My New Best Friend\nGetting access to schools - and then keeping it - tested director Jo Abel and her team.\nIt's day 28 of an eight-month shoot. I'm standing in the playground of a north London secondary school and 900 students are bowling past with hoods up and scowls on. Two strapping 16 year olds stroll up to the camera. One looks into the lens and says: \u201cSuck my balls.\u201d\nNo thanks, we reply. I can tell it's going to take a bit of time to become invisible.\nAlice, the producer and I are leading a slightly schizoid existence. One week we are at the Cheltenham Ladies' College surrounded by Cheltenham ladies in their glorious, green uniforms, the next we are hanging out in said playground.\nWe are making two films at the same time for a new BBC4 series called My New Best Friend. A separate team - director Sasha Djurkovic and producer Lucy Cohen - are battling the rain in the Scottish highlands making the third film in the series at Malaig High School.\nTwo months earlier I got a call from Ed Coulthard at Blast! Films: \u201cFancy making a couple of films about kids leaving primary school and starting secondary school? The focus of the series is to hear only the children's voices. Lovely commission from [BBC commissioning editor for documentaries] Richard Klein.\u201d\nEd's inspiration came from the daily walk to school with his own children, who talked constantly about who their best friends were - and who those friends would be when they went to senior school. Alice and I jumped at the chance.\nDavid Brindley, the development producer, had spent months carefully negotiating access with Cheltenham Ladies' College. I go up to meet the headmistress, Vicky Tuck, thinking it's a done deal. \u201cWell,\u201d she said. \u201cWould you like to tell me about the films you have made?\u201d My mind goes completely blank.\nGaining access into schools is a nightmare. The schools don't trust you; they want to know exactly what you want to do. What's more, you are asking to film 11 year olds they barely know - their new intake. There are also numerous ethical and legal dilemmas inherent in working with this age group.\nMy (only) ace is that in a previous life I was a teacher and about seven years ago I worked with director Paddy Wivell, again for Blast! Films, on two Channel 4 films, Boys and Girls. We had spent a year in Kingsmead Primary School in Hackney, working closely with Prash Naik, the lawyer at C4, who guided us through the many difficult ethical and legal challenges of working with 10 and 11 year olds.\nWith Cheltenham under our belt we contacted hundreds of London schools, the vast majority of which said no. Islington Arts and Media School in Finsbury Park was interested \u201cin principle\u201d. With the support of the headteacher, Richard Ewen, and the chair of governors, the school finally agree to let us in. Then we had to find the kids.\nChoosing children who can articulate their journeys for 60 minutes seemed an impossible task. We visited children who lived on estates in Finsbury Park and girls who lived in mansions in the Cotswolds. It's instinct that draws you to some and not others. The boys, Azad and Demian, who feature in the London school, made us laugh. And all four of the Cheltenham girls - Annabelle, Lydia, Daisy and Nanae - were extraordinarily articulate and loved talking.\nIn many ways the biggest challenge of a long-form observational documentary is keeping access going while focusing on the stories you are following. In both schools we had good relationships with staff and ingratiated ourselves by doing extra filming for the drama and English departments, as well as hanging round in the caretaker's office at Islington Arts and Media and bringing in lattes each day for Dan Bethell, the head of year seven.\nSecondary schools must be one of the noisiest places to film so sound was a challenge. We used endless amounts of gaffer tape to secure the radio mics on the children and to try to reduce the constant rustle of their clothing. We also used a two-way mixer which gave us greater range and reduced (some) of the ear-splitting distortion when filming in the playground.\nWe did become part of the furniture in both schools and in the children's lives. And we learned in making the films that when you are 11 years old and a Cheltenham girl, a boy from an estate in Finsbury Park, or a child from the Scottish Highlands, what you look for and value in your friendships is the same - loyalty and trust.\nAlthough the children all voiced their anxieties before they started at secondary school, once they got there they were more excited than frightened. They were sad to leave the familiarity of primary school but glad to be moving on into a more grown-up and independent world.\nHaving such a long filming period allowed us the luxury of building real relationships and seeing what happened as the children made this massive transition. I'd love to go back in five years' time and see what has happened to them all.\nMy New Best Friend is a Blast! Films production for BBC4. It airs on Wednesday 21 May at 9pm.\nJo Abel: My tricks of the trade\nRetain a sense of humour at all times.\nBook a series of appointments with an osteopath in advance - you know your back will give out carrying gear, filming and driving up and down motorways.\nAlways carry gaffer tape - especially when working with children!\nWhen you get it wrong, just admit it.\nTo keep access, carry on talking even when you'd rather not.\nShining a light on the dark arts",

However, before you take on the massive penalties of simply withdrawing the money and splitting it up, you should discuss a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or QDRO, with your attorney.\nA QDRO is a court-approved document that recognizes or creates an alternate payee for a retirement plan. In the event of a divorce, the alternate payee would be your ex. As an alternate payee, your ex can then receive all or some of the benefits under the plan.\nWhen and how do we get a QDRO?\nOnce you or the courts have determined that a specific 401(k) is eligible for distribution, then you or your ex will want to have a QDRO created. Oftentimes, one of your attorneys will be able to do this, but no matter who you decide on, it is crucial that you confirm who will be responsible for preparing the document.\nWhat types of issues can arise with a QDRO?\nSimply having a QDRO is not necessarily enough to protect the fair and accurate division of an asset like a 401(k). You must also be sure that the order is accurate and specific, as well as submitted in a timely manner, otherwise you could face serious consequences for mishandled, inaccurate or missing documentation.\nIn order to examine QDROs in more detail, as well as other options you may have for dividing retirement accounts in your divorce, you would be wise to discuss your case with an experienced family law attorney.",

        "raw_content": "Since the 0% starting rate for corporation tax was abolished fewer businesses have been wanting to incorporate. Admittedly the \u00a310,000 of corporate profits which were taxed at 0% was a big incentive for businesses however there are still good reasons to incorporate.\nHere are our top five reasons for considering incorporation:\nTax efficiency \u2013 It is still one of the more popular reasons to consider incorporation. Not only do companies enjoy a corporation tax rate of 20% but they also allow the shareholders some flexibility over the timing of their income tax. A good example will be a business looking to expand, by using this tax efficiency, they can use the tax saved to invest where needed.\nReduction of Liability \u2013 Companies limited by shares can reduce the owner\u2019s liability. There are some misconceptions regarding this; it is rare for a small to medium sized enterprise (SME\u2019s) to limit the shareholders\u2019/directors\u2019 liability entirely. Normally a landlord will want personal guarantees from the shareholder\u2019s/directors\u2019, as will finance providers. That said, managed properly there are definite advantages with regard to reducing the owners\u2019 liability.\nBusiness Sale \u2013 If a business is to be sold in the future, then it is common to see it incorporate. This would normally allow a \u201csimpler\u201d sale however this is not always the case. If it is a business which is likely to be purchased by another business, then an incorporated structure would normally be preferred. Looking to incorporate immediately before a sale is not ideal as it adds another layer of complication whereas if it is planned and carried out well in advance, it will make things easier when it comes to the sale.\nNational insurance \u2013 Shareholders can receive dividends and these do not attract national insurance. This potential saving can make a huge difference to the owner/shareholder. This saving may allow the owner to take less from the business meaning more money for working capital, etc.\nFinance \u2013 Obtaining conventional finance for unincorporated businesses is not normally a problem however finding an outside investor who is willing to invest in an unincorporated business is extremely rare. An \u201cAngel Investor\u201d or someone looking for a stake in the business will typically prefer an incorporated business.\nIf you are interested in finding out if your business would benefit from incorporation then please contact Shane Cann or Catherine Dymond on 01392 432525 or pop into our offices at 2 Barnfield Crescent, Exeter, EX1 1QT.",

        "title": "Glaring Lack Of Evidence Behind NSA Claim - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "There's A Glaring Lack Of Evidence Behind Claims That NSA Spying Stopped 54 Attacks\nJustin Elliott and Theodoric Meyer,\nDuring Keith Alexander\u2019s presentation in Las Vegas, two slides read simply \u201c54 ATTACKS THWARTED.\u201d The NSA, President Obama, and members of Congress have all said NSA programs have thwarted more than 50 terrorist plots. But there\u2019s no evidence the claim is true.\nTwo weeks after Edward Snowden's first revelations about sweeping government surveillance, President Obama shot back.\n\"We know of at least 50 threats that have been averted because of this information not just in the United States, but, in some cases, threats here in Germany,\" Obama said during a visit to Berlin in June. \"So lives have been saved.\"\nIn the months since, intelligence officials, media outlets, and members of Congress from both parties all repeated versions of the claim that NSA surveillance has stopped more than 50 terrorist attacks.\nThe figure has become a key talking point in the debate around the spying programs.\n\"Fifty-four times this and the other program stopped and thwarted terrorist attacks both here and in Europe 2014 saving real lives,\" Rep. Mike Rogers, a Michigan Republican who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, said on the House floor in July, referring to programs authorized by a pair of post-9/11 laws. \"This isn't a game. This is real.\"\nBut there's no evidence that the oft-cited figure is accurate.\nThe NSA itself has been inconsistent on how many plots it has helped prevent and what role the surveillance programs played. The agency has often made hedged statements that avoid any sweeping assertions about attacks thwarted.\nA chart declassified by the agency in July, for example, says that intelligence from the programs on 54 occasions \"has contributed to the [U.S. government's] understanding of terrorism activities and, in many cases, has enabled the disruption of potential terrorist events at home and abroad\" 2014 a much different claim than asserting that the programs have been responsible for thwarting 54 attacks.\nNSA officials have mostly repeated versions of this wording.\nWhen NSA chief Gen. Keith Alexander spoke at a Las Vegas security conference in July, for instance, he referred to \"54 different terrorist-related activities,\" 42 of which were plots and 12 of which were cases in which individuals provided \"material support\" to terrorism.\nBut the NSA has not always been so careful.\nDuring Alexander's speech in Las Vegas, a slide in an accompanying slideshow read simply \"54 ATTACKS THWARTED.\"\nAnd in a recent letter to NSA employees, Alexander and John Inglis, the NSA's deputy director, wrote that the agency has \"contributed to keeping the U.S. and its allies safe from 54 terrorist plots.\" (The letter was obtained by reporter Kevin Gosztola from a source with ties to the intelligence community. The NSA did not respond when asked to authenticate it.)\nAsked for clarification of the surveillance programs' record, the NSA declined to comment.\nEarlier this month, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., pressed Alexander on the issue at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.\n\"Would you agree that the 54 cases that keep getting cited by the administration were not all plots, and of the 54, only 13 had some nexus to the U.S.?\" Leahy said at the hearing. \"Would you agree with that, yes or no?\"\n\"Yes,\" Alexander replied, without elaborating.\nIt's impossible to assess the role NSA surveillance played in the 54 cases because, while the agency has provided a full list to Congress, it remains classified.\nOfficials have openly discussed only a few of the cases (see below), and the agency has identified only one 2014 involving a San Diego man convicted of sending $8,500 to Somalia to support the militant group Al Shabab 2014 in which NSA surveillance played a dominant role.\nThe surveillance programs at issue fall into two categories: The collection of metadata on all American phone calls under the Patriot Act, and the snooping of electronic communications targeted at foreigners under a 2007 surveillance law. Alexander has said that surveillance authorized by the latter law provided \"the initial tip\" in roughly half of the 54 cases. The NSA has not released examples of such cases.\nAfter reading the full classified list, Leahy concluded the NSA's surveillance has some value but still questioned the agency's figures.\n\"We've heard over and over again the assertion that 54 terrorist plots were thwarted\" by the two programs, Leahy told Alexander at the Judiciary Committee hearing this month. \"That's plainly wrong, but we still get it in letters to members of Congress, we get it in statements. These weren't all plots and they weren't all thwarted. The American people are getting left with the inaccurate impression of the effectiveness of NSA programs.\"\nThe origins of the \"54\" figure go back to a House Intelligence Committee hearing on June 18, less than two weeks after the Guardian's publication of the first story based on documents leaked by Snowden.\nAt that hearing, Alexander said, \"The information gathered from these programs provided the U.S. government with critical leads to help prevent over 50 potential terrorist events in more than 20 countries around the world.\"\nHe didn't specify what \"events\" meant. Pressed by Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., Alexander said the NSA would send a more detailed breakdown to the committee.\nSpeaking in Baltimore the next week, Alexander gave an exact figure: 54 cases \"in which these programs contributed to our understanding, and in many cases, helped enable the disruption of terrorist plots in the U.S. and in over 20 countries throughout the world.\"\nBut members of Congress have repeatedly ignored the distinctions and hedges.\nThe websites of the Republicans and Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee include pages titled, \"54 Attacks in 20 Countries Thwarted By NSA Collection.\"\nAnd individual congressmen have frequently cited the figure in debates around NSA surveillance.\nRep. Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga., who is also on the House Intelligence Committee, released a statement in July referring to \"54 terrorist plots that have been foiled by the NSA programs.\" Asked about the figure, Westmoreland spokeswoman Leslie Shedd told ProPublica that \"he was citing declassified information directly from the National Security Agency.\"\nRep. Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, issued a statement in July saying \"the programs in question have thwarted 54 specific plots, many targeting Americans on American soil.\"\nRep. Joe Heck, R-Nev., issued his own statement the next day: \"The Amash amendment would have eliminated Section 215 of the Patriot Act which we know has thwarted 54 terrorist plots against the US (and counting).\" (The amendment, which aimed to bar collection of Americans' phone records, was narrowly defeated in the House.)\nMike Rogers, the Intelligence Committee chairman who credited the surveillance programs with thwarting 54 attacks on the House floor, repeated the claim to Bob Schieffer on CBS' \"Face the Nation\" in July.\"You just heard what he said, senator,\" Schieffer said, turning to Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., an NSA critic. \"Fifty-six terror plots here and abroad have been thwarted by the NSA program. So what's wrong with it, then, if it's managed to stop 56 terrorist attacks? That sounds like a pretty good record.\" Asked about Rogers' remarks, House Intelligence Committee spokeswoman Susan Phalen said in a statement: \"In 54 specific cases provided by the NSA, the programs stopped actual plots or put terrorists in jail before they could effectuate further terrorist plotting. These programs save lives by disrupting attacks. Sometimes the information is found early in the planning, and sometimes very late in the planning. But in all those cases these people intended to kill innocent men and women through the use of terror.\"\nRep. James Lankford, R-Okla., went even further in a town hall meeting in August. Responding to a question about the NSA vacuuming up Americans' phone records, he said the program had \"been used 54 times to be able to interrupt 54 different terrorist plots here in the United States that had originated from overseas in the past eight years. That's documented.\"\nThe same day, Rep. Jim Langevin, D-R.I., who sits on the Intelligence Committee, defended the NSA at a town hall meeting with constituents in Cranston, R.I. \"I know that these programs have been directly effective in thwarting and derailing 54 terrorist attacks,\" he said. Asked about Langevin's comments, spokeswoman Meg Fraser said in an email, \"The committee was given information from NSA on August 1 that clearly indicated they considered the programs in question to have been used to help disrupt 54 terrorist events. That is the information the Congressman relied on when characterizing the programs at his town hall.\"\nWenstrup, Heck and Lankford did not respond to requests for comment.\nThe claims have also appeared in the media. ABC News, CNN and the New York Times have all repeated versions of the claim that more than 50 plots have been thwarted by the programs.\nThe NSA has publicly identified four of the 54 cases. They are:\nThe case of Basaaly Moalin, the San Diego man convicted of sending $8,500 to Somalia to support Al Shabab, the terrorist group that has taken responsibility for the attack on a Kenyan mall last month. The NSA has said its collection of American phone records allowed it to determine that a U.S. phone was in contact with a Shabab figure, which in turn led them to Moalin. NSA critic Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., has argued that the NSA could have gotten a court order to get the phone records in question and that the case does not justify the bulk collection of Americans' phone records.\nThe case of Najibullah Zazi, who in 2009 plotted to bomb the New York subway system. The NSA has said that an email it intercepted to an account of a known Al Qaeda figure in Pakistan allowed authorities to identify and ultimately capture Zazi. But an Associated Press examination of the case concluded that, again, the NSA's account of the case did not show the need for the new warrantless powers at issue in the current debate. \"Even before the surveillance laws of 2007 and 2008, the FBI had the authority to 2014 and did, regularly 2014 monitor email accounts linked to terrorists,\" the AP reported.\nA case involving David Coleman Headley, the Chicago man who helped plan the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attack. Intelligence officials have said that NSA surveillance helped thwart a subsequent plot involving Headley to attack a Danish newspaper. A ProPublica examination of that episode concluded that it was a tip from British intelligence, rather than NSA surveillance, that led authorities to Headley.\nA case involving a purported plot to attack the New York Stock Exchange. This convoluted episode involves three Americans, including Khalid Ouazzani of Kansas City, Mo., who pleaded guilty in 2010 to bank fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy to provide material support to Al Qaeda. An FBI official said in June that NSA surveillance helped in the case \"to detect a nascent plotting to bomb the New York Stock Exchange.\" But no one has been charged with crimes related to that or any other planned attack. (Ouazzani was sentenced to 14 years last month.) The Kansas City Star reported that one of the men in the case had \"pulled together a short report with the kind of public information easily available from Google Earth, tourist maps and brochures\" and that his contact in Yemen \"tore up the report, 'threw it in the street' and never showed it to anyone.\" Court records als o suggest that the men in Yemen that Ouazzani sent over $20,000 to may have been scamming him and spent some of the money on personal expenses.\nFor more from ProPublica on the NSA, read about the agency's campaign to crack Internet security, a look at the surveillance reforms Obama supported before he was president, and a fact-check on claims about the NSA and Sept. 11.\nSEE ALSO: The NSA Has A Much Bigger Role In Drone Strikes Than We've Realized\nMore: ProPublica NSA Edward Snowden",

But like other anonymous apps, it has developed something of a reputation for nefarious activities: It has been banned by numerous US colleges because it can help facilitate cyberbullying. And Yik Yak has also \"geofenced\"every single US middle and high school, blocking students' access on campuses.\nThere's no confirmation as to why Google as to why Yik Yak has been dropped from the Android app charts \u2014 we've reached out to Google to ask, and will update if they respond. But TechCrunch speculates its down to the controversy that surrounds the app, and its potential violation of Google's policies. which ban content \"advocating against groups of people based on their race of ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation/gender identity.\"\nBusiness Insider tested the Google Play Store for ourselves, and sure enough, Yik Yak was nowhere to be seen until we searched for it.

        "title": "iPhone 5 Review Embargoes - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "Apple's Select Round Of iPhone 5 Reviews Should Go Up At 9 Eastern Tonight\nAt 9 p.m. Eastern on the nose today you're going to see reviews for the iPhone 5 hit a few select blogs and newspapers.\nBecause that's when reviewers made agreements with Apple to hold publication in exchange for early access to the iPhone 5. (That's assuming USA Today's in-print goof from this morning is correct. I thought the reviews would go up Wednesday at 9 p.m.)\nIs Apple alone in this practice? Nope. Tech companies give reporters early access to devices all the time as long as they agree not to write about it until a prearranged date and time. For example, I had the Kindle Fire HD for five days before I was able to write my review on it, per my agreement with Amazon. I've had similar agreements in the past with a bunch of other top tech companies like Samsung, Motorola, Nokia, HTC, etc.\nBut unlike most tech companies, Apple is insanely selective with who it lets review its products ahead of time, so you won't see writeups on the iPhone 5 in a majority of publications tonight. Instead of letting all major publications get a chance to review its stuff, Apple has a handful of journalists with a history of saying positive things about the company that it gives early access to. That means David Pogue, Walt Mossberg, John Gruber, Jim Dalrymple, and the like.\nAm I saying product review press embargoes are bad? I don't think so. In fact, in some cases, I think it's better for readers because reviewers are forced to spend a good amount of time testing a device before writing about it. That gives the audience a much better idea what it's like using a product.\nBut it is important to know how these things to work behind the scenes. And it is important to know that tonight's reviews come from Apple's cherry-picked group of journalists who are more likely to give the iPhone 5 a positive review.\nMore: Phones Mobile iPhone 5 iPhone",

        "title": "My Opinion on the Governor Romney Tax Plan - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "My Opinion on the Governor Romney Tax Plan\nAfter watching interviews of Governor Romney and the debates, both Presidential and VP, I'm starting to fully get my arms around how Governor Romney works and the details of his tax plan.\nGovernor Romney is a successful financier. He is an amazing deal maker. When he has control of a situation, he knows exactly how to get things done. He knows exactly what he wants to do and he knows exactly the process he needs to take to get there. He is incredibly confident in his ability.\nI see some of me in him. When it comes to my companies, I know what i want to do and I have complete confidence that I will get to where i need to go. I might not always get there, but I tend to only get into businesses and battles where I am extremely confident I can come out ahead. My failures have never stopped me from having absolute confidence in how I approach business. I have the feeling that Governor Romney has this trait to a far greater degree than even I do. No failure will ever slow down Governor Romney's confidence.\nThat confidence is exactly the foundation of his tax plan. This is how I see his plan:\n- He will work to create bipartisan agreement to reduce federal spending as a share of GDP to 20 percent - its pre-crisis average - by2016.\n- He will work to create bipartisan agreement to simplify the Tax Code\n- He will work to create bipartisan agreement to Reform Entitlement Programs To Ensure Their Viability - He will make Growth And Cost-Benefit Analysis Important Features Of Regulation. - He will work to remove regulatory impediments to energy production and innovation that raise costs to consumers and limit job creation.\n- That the rich will continue to pay the same share of taxes as they pay now.\n- He believes that income and corporate tax cuts across the board will increase economic growth which will offset the impact of any tax cuts that he is able create in a revenue neutral manner\n- He intends to first negotiate a bipartisan agreement to eliminate corporate and individual deductions other than mortgage interest deductions, health care deductions and several other tax deductions that he feels are important to the middle class\n- Once he has negotiated a bipartisan agreement to eliminate corporate and individual deductions he will be able to access the impact on revenues and determine what tax cuts that can be reasonably made. His goal and hope is that those tax cuts will be 20pct across the board for individuals and to 25pct for corporations. But he has been clear that it is not absolutely certain that these will be the exact numbers.\nIf I spent enough time I bet I could create an algorithm that covered all the above, but that is far more work than I am willing to do. More importantly each variable in the algorithm would have to have such a large range of possible outcomes, solving the algorithm wouldn't create much value. It is this fact that make people believe that Governor Romney has not provided details for his tax plan.\nWell I'm going to fill in those details in a second. But first I want to provide a little more detail on my perception of Governor Romney. As I said at the beginning of this post Governor Romney is a deal maker who has extreme confidence in his ability to get his deals done.\nAgree or not, I am certain that Governor Romney firmly believes the following - at Bain he created a company that was built on his ability alone to close deals to buy or invest in companies. He knew that he took people's money and he was relentless in getting profitable deals done to make them money. He was hired to fix the Olympics. and he did. He was hired to fix the state of Massachusetts and he feels certain that he did. A dd all this together and I believe that Governor Romney firmly believes that he is as good a negotiator and dealmaker as there is.\nIf you put a problem in front of him, he knows in his mind that given enough time, resources and control he can solve the problem.\nWhich is the exact detail of the Romney Tax Plan that makes all the numbers add up. Governor Romney is the detail. He will take all the unsolved variables in the algorithm that is our desire to reduce the budget deficit , increase economic growth and thereby increase employment and negotiate them into the outcome that will solve this country's financial problem.\nCan he do it ? I don't know. What I do know is that in order for him to have a rational negotiation on all of these variables it requires the politicians he will be negotiating with to negotiate in the best interests of the country rather than for their own personal interests and for the projections of the economists advising him to be accurate. Those are both high risk factors that will be difficult to overcome. I don't know that anyone can over come them, including Governor Romney. I think it will be difficult for anyone to walk in to the office and get to a compromise that solves the algorithm. But I know Governor Romney has no doubt in his mind that he is more than up to the challenge. Which leads to the next algorithm, what happens if he gets elected and can't get bipartisan agreements ? That has to be part of the equation as well.\nSo what does all this mean ? It means this is how I was thinking and I wanted to get it out there to let people comment on it. Thats the beauty of a blog, it can create discussion on topics i am interested in.\nI'm not saying you should or should not vote for either of the candidates. That is up to you. Nor am i saying that economic issues should be the only factor in who you should vote for. Everyone needs to make their own decisions. Just as I will make my own decision on Nov 6th.\nThanks for reading this far. I hope you jump in on the comments",

        "title": "Trump campaign files Nevada lawsuit over early-voting poll times - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "Trump campaign files lawsuit against Nevada election officials, claiming polls were kept open 2 hours late\nDonald Trump speaks in New Mexico.\nDonald Trump's campaign has filed a lawsuit against Nevada election officials, alleging they \"intentionally coordinated with Democratic activists\" by keeping the polls open late during early voting.\nSo many people lined up to vote early last Friday in Nevada that officials kept some polls open until 10 p.m. local time \u2014 hours later than they were scheduled to close.\nThe Election Day lawsuit, first reported by CNN's Jim Sciutto, requests votes cast after polls were supposed to close on Friday shouldn't be \"co-mingled\" with other votes.\nIn an emergency court hearing Tuesday, Nevada Judge Gloria Sturman denied a Trump lawyer's request for poll workers to preserve the early voting records from the polling places in question, partly because the county is already required by law to do so.\n\"I am not going to issue any order,\" Sturman told the attorney in what was a fiery exchange at times. \"I'm not going to do it.\"\nIt's unclear what legal step the Trump campaign will take next.\nRepublicans have spent the past few days denouncing the election officials' actions in Nevada.\nTo open a rally for the Republican presidential nominee in Reno on Saturday, Nevada GOP Chairman Michael McDonald accused workers of keeping the polling place open \"so a certain group could vote.\" Critics said the group to which he was referring was Latino voters, who came out in droves in the state's early voting. Polls have shown Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton with a significant advantage in the voting bloc.\n\"It's being reported that certain key Democratic polling locations in Clark County were kept open for hours and hours beyond closing time to bus and bring Democratic voters in,\" Trump said at the rally in Nevada on Saturday. \"Folks, it's a rigged system. It's a rigged system, and we're going to beat it. We're going to beat it.\"\nBut as Clark County spokesman Dan Kulin told The Associated Press, allowing everyone in line when the polls close to vote is the law.\n\"If there's a line when closing time comes, we just keep processing voters until there's no more line,\" he said. \"We're flexible because we want people to vote.\"\nNevada state law says every person in line when the polls close must be able to vote.\n\"The Legislature hereby declares that each voter has the right ... to vote on Election Day if the voter is waiting in line at his or her polling place to vote before 7 p.m. and the voter has not already cast a vote in that election,\" the law reads.\nThe law further defines that \"a person is waiting to vote at the hour of closing the polls if the person (a) is physically in line waiting to vote; or (b) has entered the polling place.\"\nWhile polls close at 7 p.m. on Election Day in Nevada, early voting closing times can vary, according to a statement from Clark County. The latest a polling place was scheduled to close was at 9 p.m. on Friday, but people in line already were allowed to vote.\nIn a statement on Tuesday, Charles Mu\u00f1oz, the Trump campaign's Nevada state director, said officials' decision to let people vote on Friday \"should be troubling to anyone who is interested in free and fair elections.\"\nNed Foley, director of Ohio State University's Election Law @ Moritz, wrote a post for Medium about the history of keeping polls open for people to vote.\n\"It's one of the most basic principles of electoral democracy,\" Foley wrote. \"If you go to the polls when they are open, and you are a registered and qualified voter, then as long as you wait in line, you are entitled to cast your ballot even if the line is so long that you must wait until after the scheduled time for the polls to close.\"\nAddressing the lawsuit on Fox News on Tuesday, Trump had a different view.\n\"They brought a lawsuit, and it sounded like a good one to me, so I let them to bring it,\" he said. \"We have to keep the system honest. We have a very, very serious situation with the whole process, and I've been talking about the rigged system for a long time.\"\nSEE ALSO: Nevada judge shoots down Trump polling place lawsuit: 'I am not ordering anything'\nDON'T MISS: Follow along with our 2016 presidential election live blog\nNOW WATCH: Here's how Paul Ryan can become the next president\nMore: Election Day 2016 Elections Voting Voting Rights",

        "raw_content": "Here's why the world's largest property owner is investing in Foursquare's new $33 million funding round\nZo\u00eb BernardOct 3, 2018, 12.30 AM\nFoursquare has just closed $33 million in funding from investors including Union Square Ventures, Korean search engine Naver Corp., and Simon Ventures - an investment group backed by the world's largest property owner Simon Property Group.\nFoursquare CEO Jeff Glueck says that the partnerships with Simon Ventures and Naver Corp. are strategic, and paves the way for the company's future ambitions.\nSince Foursquare was founded nearly ten years ago, the company has evolved from a consumer-focused social media app to a powerful geo-location tool utilized by companies like Microsoft, Tinder, Twitter, and Spotify.\nNow, the New York-based startup is opening a new headquarters in the Flatiron district, and announcing $33 million in funding from investors including Union Square Ventures and Simon Ventures - an investment group backed by the world's largest property owner Simon Property Group.\nFoursquare last raised $45 million in 2016, in a deal that was said to have valued the company at about half of the $650 million valuation it held in 2013. The company declined to share its current valuation following this new round of funding, but confirms that it's higher than in the 2016 deal.\nFor Foursquare CEO Jeff Glueck, the deal with Simon Ventures is more about making a new strategic partner than it is about raising capital. \"It's about cementing these leading customers who want to be advocates for us,\" Glueck said. \"For the next few years, our focus will be on retail, dining, and media publishers.\"\nAs the largest shopping mall operator in the US, Simon Property Group's partnership with Foursquare could yield a myriad of new business opportunities for both parties, Glueck says.\nAs Glueck points out, Foursquare's ability to provide location-driven datasets is a compelling lure to many brick and mortar retailers. \"In 2018, retailers need new ways to address the stresses of the market, to apply analysis and measure trends, and to find out what drives people into their stores,\" Glueck said.\nThis is exactly the sort of data which, in recent years, has become Foursquare's flagship product: A trove of location-rich analysis powered by more than one billion monthly users that can help determine exactly what snags consumer interest. \"We're able to help brands figure out what costumers will be excited to hear about...down to what messages inspire people to enter a store,\" he said.\nAmong Foursquare's other lead investors on the Series F round is South Korean search engine Naver Corp., which Glueck said will further the company's ambitions in Asia, where \"we're only just getting started.\" Foursquare already operates a Singapore office, and has partnered with a number of large Asia-based companies including DiDi, Samsung, and Tencent.\nNOW WATCH: What marijuana looks like under the microscope\nNext Story10 of the companies that give the most to charity in the US\n10 of the companies that give the most to charity in the US\nThis 28-year-old crashed his company twice and wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars of investors' cash - here's how he turned that same company into a huge success\nThese entrepreneurs invented a futuristic 'magic mirror' to take on the bathroom scale - and investors say its groundbreaking tech could transform the future of fitness\nUnicorn startups Paytm, Snapdeal, Flipkart are on a hiring spree in India\nWhy private companies are now asking customers for their Aadhaar number\nHow Microsoft's AI team is contributing to the development of self-driving cars\nIndia pushes Amazon's international losses to $936 million\n1Here's why the world's largest property owner is investing in Foursquare's new $33 million funding round\n210 of the companies that give the most to charity in the US\n3This 28-year-old crashed his company twice and wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars of investors' cash - here's how he turned that same company into a huge success\n4These entrepreneurs invented a futuristic 'magic mirror' to take on the bathroom scale - and investors say its groundbreaking tech could transform the future of fitness\n5Unicorn startups Paytm, Snapdeal, Flipkart are on a hiring spree in India\n6Why private companies are now asking customers for their Aadhaar number\n7How Microsoft's AI team is contributing to the development of self-driving cars\n8Why this placement season could turn out to be great for IIT Bombay freshers\n9How Intel is digitizing rural India\n10India pushes Amazon's international losses to $936 million",

        "title": "Moving Forward In God",
        "raw_content": "Moving Forward In God\nWhat is the biggest hinderance to a fruitful Christian life? We may think it is sin, but it is self!\nSelf stops us from obeying God. Self makes us question God. Self always resists the purposes of God! The Bible tells us that God has a good plan for our lives, but many of us never find that plan because we do not obey God. The reason we do not obey is because we have not surrendered to Him! When God asks us to do something, we want to take a vote on the subject. When God asks us to give up something that is harming us, we ask our feelings if they agree. Self resists obeying God and states, \u201cBut what about me? What will I get from this?\u201d\nHow many times in our Christian lives do we state, \u201cMe, me, me, I, I, I?\u201d How much of our Christian lives are filled with, \u201cI want, I feel, but God I don\u2019t want to!\u201d All of these expressions are the manifestation of self. If we want to grow in God, we must understand that our thoughts, feelings and desires \u2013 our self \u2013 does not know how to satisfy our soul and spirit. How many people have got \u2018everything they ever wanted\u2019 and found out that they didn\u2019t want it after all? Many people who get all they wanted realise that it cannot fill their soul with joy and they lose all hope.\nHow many people today are feeling hopeless? This is what happens when we build our lives based on what we want, feel or like, instead of on the will and Word of God. Only the Holy Spirit knows what we really need. Only He knows how to fill our souls with joy. Only God knows how to make us feel complete in Him. Therefore, if we are going to grow in God, we have to lay self on the altar of God and in the words of Jesus, \u201cTake up your cross daily and follow Me.\u201d\nThe apostle Paul explains that we must walk in the Spirit and allow God to crucify our flesh/self. \u2018Those who are Christ\u2019s have crucified the flesh (self) with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit\u2019 (Galatians 5:24-25).",

Our family were the 14th family to move in to a community that eventually numbered 11,000. We were there because my Dad was the new Church of Scotland minister. The next Sunday we started church in our living room. Plastic bucket chairs round the walls, my Dad preaching, my Mum playing the piano and me and my sister going out to the kitchen for Sunday School. 22 people came that day. Over the next few years the church grew out of our front room (thankfully!) and into the local primary classroom, then the dining hall, then the gym and finally after 5 years, into a purpose-built church building. By that time, there were 400 members and the Sunday School ran 5 double decker buses to their summer outings in Troon! So, you see I have always known and believed that the church of Jesus Christ is able to start and grow anywhere. The gospel really is good news.\nThings have changed since then but my own experience of starting a new church with 5 other people in Whiteinch in Glasgow in 1996 and now having about 180 of all ages around Whiteinch Church of Scotland has shown that my childhood experience is no fluke. I believe that we are called to see a vibrant, worshipping, witnessing church in every community and network in Scotland. To make that happen we need to plant hundreds of new churches, missional communities and mission projects. That is what Cairn\u2019s Innovate team are working on. If you have that passion in your bones then come and be part of this amazing missional movement.",

        "raw_content": "home > News > Crimes > Children > Sex predator-psychopath free again, charge recommended\nIn this most recent decision, November 4, 2016, the Parole Board of Canada concluded that Gazley\u2019s recent conduct constitutes a breach of the conditions of his supervision order and he should be charged with a criminal offence. A conviction could put him back in penitentiary for two years. It\u2019s unclear if he will be charged. The final decision rests with Crown prosecutors. Spokesmen for the Parole Board of Canada, which makes decisions in Gazley\u2019s case, the Correctional Service, which supervises him in the community, and Vancouver Police, could not tell Cancrime if a charge has been laid or will be laid. It appears that Gazley is again free from custody.\nThe latest parole decision came after Gazley was arrested August 29, 2016 and his release was suspended. It was the second such suspension (read about his previous suspension) since he was released from prison in December 2015.\nThe parole board notes, in this latest decision, that, despite 10 supervision conditions and the requirement that Gazley live at a halfway house, he engaged in behaviour that substantially elevated his risk of reoffending.\n\u201cThe Board is satisfied that no appropriate program of supervision can be established that would adequately protect society from your risk of reoffending,\u201d the decision states.\nIn an attempt to rein in Gazley, the parole board imposed two new conditions to his supervision order: he is forbidden from owning or possessing a computer or any other device that permits him access to the Internet, including a cellphone, unless approved by his parole supervisor and, he is not permitted to access the Internet without the direct supervision of an approved adult.\nThere are now 12 conditions on Gazley\u2019s long term supervision order, up from seven when he was first freed in 2015.\nA host of troubling information about his recent activities is documented in the latest parole record:\n\u2022 Gazley was seen by police meeting women at a coffee shop without reporting the meetings to his parole supervisor, as required\n\u2022 he was providing legal representation to another inmate to obtain identity documents from another country, without the knowledge of his supervisors\n\u2022 his cellphone was under another offender\u2019s account\n\u2022 he had established a web-based business under a different name and it was registered to another federal offender with whom he was forbidden to have contact. The business allowed people to contact him for editing work and falsely indicated he had worked with students, the federal government and non-profit organizations.\n\u2022 he had borrowed a camera from another halfway house resident to take pictures at Stanley Park\n\u2022 he had communicated with a woman by email in order to obtain personal information.\nGazley is subject to onerous requirements that forbid him from initiating any friendships or relationships with women without informing his parole supervisor. He\u2019s also barred from going near any places, such as parks, swimming pools, schools and recreational areas, where children would congregate.\nGazley\u2019s criminal record stretches back to 1977 and includes sex crimes against children as young as 11, including girls and boys. He also has committed sex crimes against vulnerable adults.\nGazley is a chronic liar and manipulator. He confessed, during his testimony during a murder trial in Ontario in 2002, to lying \u201calmost \u2026 all the time\u201d when talking to police about the murder, before striking a deal for a lenient sentence in exchange for his testimony against the killer. (Learn more about Gazley\u2019s past and psychopaths in this story and podcast).\nGazley has continued to reoffend despite going through many treatment programs during his multiple terms in prison and jail. Treatments given to sexual psychopaths \u201chave shown little or no reduction in recidivism rates,\u201d according to research by forensic psychologist Stephen Porter, an expert on psychopaths. His research shows that Gazley fits into a category of criminals who \u201ccan be expected to offend early, persistently, and often violently across the lifespan.\u201d\nDespite the threat Gazley poses and his resistance to treatment, top legal authorities in Ontario, where he was last prosecuted, chose not to seek to have him declared a dangerous offender. This designation could have kept him behind bars forever. Gazley was sentenced to eight years in prison in 2008 after pleading guilty in an Ottawa court to attempting to lure a 14-year-old girl into sex acts.\nIn 2000, Gazley was sentenced to the equivalent of 16 months in custody after he pleaded guilty to four sexual assaults on girls aged 11 to 14 in Kingston, Ontario, including a learning disabled girl he met at his son\u2019s school. That year, he also pleaded guilty to accessory to murder and was handed a lenient 11-month sentence, in exchange for his testimony against the killer.\nGazley was convicted of sexual assault in 1985 for an attack on a 20-year-old woman with a developmental handicap. Gazley was a social worker at the group home where she lived.\nThe written record of the November 4, 2016 parole decision:\n\u00bb Research on sexual psychopaths\n\u00bb All Cancrime coverage of Gazley\nTagged Don Gazley, long term supervision, Parole, psychopath, sex offender\n\u2190 Double cop killer denied release after denying he pulled trigger 43 years ago\nCalgary triple murder case makes legal history \u2192",

        "title": "Hockey Legend Messier Talks Bronx - Capalino + Company",
        "raw_content": "Hockey Legend Messier Talks Bronx\nMark Messier, the hockey Hall of Famer who was immortalized in New York sports lore for captaining the Rangers to a Stanley Cup in 1994, has entered the realm of big-city real estate development. In September, Mr. Messier was named the head of the Kingsbridge National Ice Center, a group that was selected by the city earlier this year to redevelop the Bronx\u2019s Kingsbridge Armory into a vast, nine-rink ice-sport facility.\nMr. Messier stepped down from the Rangers as a special assistant to the organization\u2019s president to take the position and oversee the construction and operation of the nearly $300 million project, which will introduce ice sports on a scale never before seen in the city.\nWe were originally going to do a twin rink in Queens. And we were talking to the city and they said, \u201cYou might want to check this building out,\u201d and we were like, \u201cWow, this is more than we were thinking, but let\u2019s do some research and figure out what could happen here.\u201d\nIt\u2019s more than an ice rink. It\u2019s an opportunity to create something world-renowned in a landmark building that millions of people are going to pass through each year and rejuvenate the Bronx in a way that hasn\u2019t been done since 1923, when Yankee Stadium was built.\nIS THERE REALLY ENOUGH DEMAND IN THE BRONX FOR NINE SKATING RINKS?\nWHERE THEY DINED\nI think that\u2019s a fair question, but the answer is they haven\u2019t [skated] because they can\u2019t, and I can assure you, once given the opportunity, they will. We don\u2019t have the ice facilities to accommodate the people we have in this city. The national average is one sheet [of ice] per 100,000 people, and we have one sheet per 1.2 million people. We\u2019ll also draw from New Jersey, Long Island and Connecticut.\nThat\u2019s part of the economic benefit that the borough will be rewarded with. They\u2019re going to come in, and they\u2019re going to be staying overnight. This restaurant is a perfect example of the kind of business that will thrive with the traffic coming through here.\nA PLAN TO DEVELOP THE ARMORY IN 2009 WAS REJECTED OVER LIVING-WAGE ISSUES. HOW DID YOUR GROUP GET AROUND THAT ROADBLOCK?\nWe\u2019re here to enhance the community; 51% of the jobs will be for people in the area. It\u2019s jobs, kids and community, and that\u2019s the focus. I wouldn\u2019t want to be in their neighborhood, in their business district, in their armory, unless they welcomed us. I believe in good energy.\nWHAT KIND OF ACTIVITIES AND SPORTS WILL BE HERE?\nWe\u2019re going to have synchronized ice dancing, sled hockey, figure skating, curling. All the ice sports. What we have done with the community is give them 50,000 square feet of community space on top of the nine rinks and $8 million to develop whatever they want.\nIS THIS GOING TO BE YOUR FULL-TIME GIG FOR A WHILE?\nI really believe in the project. I gave up a career in the NHL. Hockey is exciting, but this presented a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.\nWHEN DOES THIS PROJECT GET APPROVED AND WHEN WILL IT OPEN?\nThe idea is to get approvals, hopefully by the end of the year. We\u2019ll finish the architecture and planning next year, and we are going to be open for business by 2017 and possibly earlier.\nDO YOU LIKE REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT?\nI was buying and selling homes back through the 1990s and early 2000s. I loved it. I was still playing, and the economy was moving. [Kingsbridge] is that on a super-big scale. It\u2019s one of the most interesting projects in the city right now.\nDO YOU THINK THIS FACILITY WILL PRODUCE AN NHL PLAYER EVENTUALLY?\nOne thousand percent. I could assure you that someone who starts at the grassroots level here will come out eventually. That\u2019s not if, that\u2019s just when.\nSoho House\u2019s Lower East Side Club Granted Liquor License\nIce, Ice Baby: City Planning Commission Approves Plan to Convert Bronx Armory to Ice Skating Mecca",

        "title": "Ties the Room Together - Cape May Brewing Co",
        "raw_content": "Last week, we played host to Eric Wallace, co-founder of Left Hand Brewing in Longmont, Colorado, and two of his Sales Managers, Brian Sweeney and Ryan Vaughan. After a night of bar-hopping through Cape May and Wildwood, we caught up with them in the Tasting Room, as Eric sipped on a Honey Porter.\n\u201cThe Bog smoothie is interesting,\u201d Ryan Vaughan laughed.\nThis is not \u2018Nam, Ryan. This is brewing. There are rules. (It\u2019s called the Reinheitsgebot, and no one has paid any attention to it for years. Say what you want, at least it\u2019s an ethos.)\nRyan (Krill) and Eric met working together on the Government Affairs Committee at the Brewers Association. Colorado had recently gone through a split in their Guild as New Jersey had.\n\u201cI said to Ryan, \u2018If you want to talk about what\u2019s going on with you guys, I can tell you a bit of our story,\u2019\u201d Eric said. \u201cI think that\u2019s what started the conversation about a collaboration.\u201d\nThrough their discussions, Ryan realized that New Jersey and Colorado had a lot of the same issues. Long story short, both Guilds had gotten to the point that someone had to say, \u201cThis aggression will not stand, man.\u201d\n\u201cI was looking to Eric to understand what happened in Colorado,\u201d Ryan said, \u201cand the conversation started from there. And, on a more positive note, we decided to do something fun and focus on something that\u2019s core to what we do and celebrates indie craft beer.\u201d\nWe\u2019ve had a few collaborations \u2014 Weyerbacher, Referend, DC Brau, Carton \u2014 but Left Hand definitely has us beat when it comes to collabs.\n\u201cBefore Terrapin sold out, we did four years in a row with those guys,\u201d Eric says. \u201cEach year, we\u2019d alternate and go back and forth. N\u00f8rrebro Bryghus, in Copenhagen. But that was years ago. Fade to Black #2 \u2014 our second version of Fade to Black, which is a Baltic Porter \u2014 that was the recipe that we brewed over there.\u201d\nBreweries in Italy, Michigan, Colorado, and now, right here in Cape May round out the list. It\u2019s been twenty-five years of beautiful tradition from Milk Stout to Pixan Pepper Porter for Left Hand.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve done a bunch,\u201d Eric says. \u201cI\u2019m trying to remember where else I\u2019ve gone to stand around, shoot the shit, and drink beers.\u201d\nThey distribute to 42 states \u2014\n\u201cIs Delaware 42 or 43?\u201d Brian Sweeney asked.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s 42,\u201d Eric responded.\n\u2014 and some dozen countries, but there\u2019s far more that unites us.\n\u201cIt\u2019s supporting independent beer, and good, quality beer,\u201d Ryan Vaughan said.\n\u201cTrying to stay independent,\u201d Eric said, \u201cyou choose the harder path, for sure. It\u2019d be easier to sell like the big guys who have far vaster resources and have somebody else pushing and have access to distribution. Those guys are basically excluding independent breweries from a lot of places. Wherever they can buy the business \u2014 venues, stadiums, concert halls, whatever \u2014 it\u2019s really hard to crack into a lot of those places.\u201d\nBeyond a commitment to remaining independent, we\u2019re both dedicated to furthering the cause, politically.\n\u201cWe both donate our time to help our industry,\u201d Ryan said. \u201cWe both support our shared values and support the Brewers Association.\u201d\nRegardless, the idea for a collaboration was born. And, once it was, we needed to figure out a recipe. Luckily, with the brains behind this beer, if you want a recipe, they can get you a recipe. There are ways. They can get you a recipe by three o\u2019clock this afternoon. With measurements.\n\u201cWe started throwing ideas out there,\u201d said Head Brewer Brian Hink, \u201cand I just threw it out there first. Left Hand has their Nitro Milk Stout, and something I\u2019d always wanted to do was a big, white Russian-inspired brew.\u201d\nThe idea for an Imperial cream ale flavored with coffee beans, cocoa nibs, lactose, and vanilla was a \u201cno-brainer,\u201d according to Brian.\n\u201cAnd who doesn\u2019t love The Big Lebowski?\u201d Brian asked, obviously rhetorically.\n\u201cMy wife doesn\u2019t get it,\u201d Eric laughed.\nLike many of the Coen Brothers\u2019 films, either you get The Big Lebowski or you don\u2019t. And, if you don\u2019t get it, dear reader, much of this blog doesn\u2019t make any sense at all. However, you probably know someone who peppers their conversation with references to Larry\u2019s homework, missing toes, Cynthia\u2019s pomeranian, and The Dude.\nIt must be exhausting.\n\u201cIt really ties Left Hand and Cape May together,\u201d Ryan said. \u201cTies the Room Together abides.\u201d\nWe don\u2019t know about you, but we take comfort in that. It\u2019s good knowin\u2019 they\u2019re out there \u2014 Left Hand \u2014 takin\u2019 it easy for all us sinners.\nTies the Room Together hits shelves in New Jersey and Pennsylvania sometime next month. We\u2019ll bring you updates as news becomes available.",

The move is expected to help the world\u2019s largest automaker, Volkswagen save cost, especially when the company has been working on recovering from the emission scandal. Reports indicate that Matthias Mueller, Volkswagen\u2019s Chief Executive has finalized a plan to step up development of autonomous cars, electric vehicles and digital services.\nThe projects will be jointly headed by representatives from each brand. Reports indicate that the joint teams are working on specific areas of cooperation, while simultaneously defining roadmap to 2025. Major focus will be on jointly developing shared vehicle platforms. Prior to acquisition by Volkswagen in 2012, Porsche had been strongly competing against the Audi brand. Utilising engineering capabilities of both the brands, the future models will play an important role in shaping the brand\u2019s future.\nMoving forward, self-driving cars will play an important role in human lives and utilising Audi\u2019s expertise in this regard will reap bigger benefits. In the midst of Volkswagen\u2019s emission scam, Audi lost two research and development chiefs and the head of its automotive electronics division, who have been a primary contributor in the area of autonomous driving and battery technology.

        "title": "Interview With Vatican Aide on Jewish-Catholic Relations - Featured Today - Catholic Online",
        "raw_content": "By Viktoria Somogyi\nROME, MARCH 22, 2008 (Zenit) - The personal witness of Benedict XVI, and before him, Pope John Paul II, plays a key role in the advance of relations between the Church and the Jews, says a Vatican aide.\nFather Norbert Hofmann is the secretary of the Commission for Religious Relations With the Jews, within the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity.\nWe spoke with Father Hofmann about the Church's dialogue with the Jews, and particularly about an upcoming international congress to be held in Hungary and to focus on Catholic and Jewish perspectives on civil society and religion.\nQ: How does the congress in Budapest fit within the development of relations between the Holy See and the Jewish world?\nFather Hofmann: The Holy See began systematic dialogue with the Jewish world after Vatican Council II, that is, starting in 1965. On the part of the Jews, the International Jewish Committee for Interreligious Consultations was founded in 1970. It is an organization that includes almost all the most important Hebrew agencies involved in interreligious dialogue.\nFrom 1970 till now we have organized 19 encounters at the international level. The one we will have in Budapest, Nov. 9-12, will be the 20th. So it is an ongoing development, starting with the declaration from the Council, \"Nostra Aetate,\" and over these years we've arrived at quite a good spot.\nQ: Could you summarize for us the main stages of the journey that have led to this encounter?\nFather Hofmann: The main purpose inspiring this conference in Budapest is to examine the situation of the dialogue between Catholics and Jews in the Eastern European countries. We chose Budapest because there is a fairly large Jewish community in this city and because the dialogue in this country has made a lot of progress.\nWe've covered so many important steps since beginning the official dialogue of the Catholic Church with the Jewish world. For example, Pope John Paul II was the first Pope to visit a synagogue, to pray at Auschwitz for the victims of the Shoah, and to go to Israel. He prayed at the Wailing Wall, visited Yad Vashem, the Holocaust monument and museum. Then, importantly, there is not only the \"Nostra Aetate\" document, but also the texts published by the various bishops' conferences. The living witness of John Paul II and now Benedict XVI are even more important.\nSix weeks after his election, Benedict XVI received the first Jewish delegation. Then, four months later he visited the synagogue in Cologne; a year later he then visited Auschwitz to pray for the victims of the Shoah. In addition, he intends to visit Israel as well, if the situation if favorable for organizing this visit. Dialogue with the Jews is close to Pope Ratzinger's heart.\nAfter the steps taken in 2006, we organized an encounter in Cape Town, South Africa, to commit ourselves -- Catholics and Jews together -- to fight the AIDS epidemic. In 2004, we were in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to do something for the poor of that country who were going through an economic recession at that time. Then we chose Budapest to be able to examine the situation of Eastern Europe. So Budapest is our door to the East.\nQ: Who will be participating?\nFather Hofmann: For our part, half of the participants will come from Hungary, from the Hungarian bishops' conference; there will be cardinals, bishops, experts and professors who have a lot of experience in dialogue with the Jews.\nOn the part of the Jews, the local community will be involved, but I hope that they invite participants not only from the United States and Israel, but also from Europe and Eastern Europe. We've found that long term dialogue can be stimulated after conferences like these.\nQ: What topics will be discussed?\nFather Hofmann: The official topic will be: \"Civil and Religious Society, Catholic and Jewish Perspectives.\" The purpose is to understand what point we are at in the dialogue with the Jews of Eastern Europe. In addition, we want to stimulate the situation in Hungary and in other countries of Eastern Europe in order to deepen Catholic-Jewish dialogue.\nQ: What are the major problem-areas of the debate?\nFather Hofmann: The beatification of Pius XII; then the new prayer for Good Friday in the Tridentine Mass that has caused a bit of an uproar. We are now talking with our Jewish partners to clear it up, to balance out the situation.\nBut we should say that there are so many general problems. For example, we have a hierarchical structure, there's the Pope, the bishops' conference, cardinals; on the other hand, for Jews, there are different agencies. Therefore it is sometimes difficult for them to have a stable structure. We primarily have a religious interest, and sometimes the Jews want to talk about religion, but for them the cultural, social, and political aspects are also very important.\nThe other point in which the situation is very difficult is the conflict between Israel and Palestine: This conflict has always cast a shadow on our discussions and has sometimes mixed political affairs with religious affairs. Israel is the only country in the world where Jews are in the majority and Christians are a small minority. Then also, it is always important to the Jews to fight anti-Semitism. As John Paul II said: Anti-Semitism is a sin against God and against humanity. And so the Jews can be sure they have found an ally in the fight against anti-Semitism.\nQ: What are the points of convergence?\nFather Hofmann: There are so many, because spiritually and theologically Christianity has roots in Judaism. Christianity can't be understood without Judaism. As Cardinal Ratzinger once said, for the Jews and for our creed the one and only God is the God of Israel. There is also the second commandment, that we should help the needy, then the sacred Scriptures as the revelation of God's will, the Ten Commandments, ethics, how to live and completely fulfill oneself as a human being. Let's say that from a social point of view, we can do a lot together; even in the liturgy, in ethics there are so many similar elements. The religious foundation is enormous.\nQ: On what levels is the dialogue between the Christian and Jewish world happening?\nFather Hofmann: It is happening on the level of religion, social justice, discussions about theological issues, on Judaism's influence on Christianity and vice versa during the Middle Ages, on the Jewish roots. There is an ongoing dialogue to continue to find our own Christian identity. There is also the level of daily life: in New York, Jews and Catholics live right next to each other. They have to face daily life together, there are so many friendships.\nThen there is the parish level, and in every bishops' conference, there is someone responsible for ecumenism and for interreligious dialogue. There is also the level of the universal Church regarding the Holy See's Commission for Religious Relations with the Jews, but the true work is done by the bishops' conferences. And because there are few Jews in Asia, the most important dialogue is happening in the United States, Israel and in all the European countries.\nJew, Jewish, Catholic, Hofmann, Somogyi",

        "raw_content": "Tours of the National Gallery of Art offers a different view of religious art\nMeghan Hanson, a tour guide for Adventures for Creative Tourists, kicks off a tour of religious art at the National Gallery of Art in Washington July 21. ELIZABETH A. ELLIOTT | CATHOLIC HERALD\nHave you ever wondered about the background of religious art? A tour, offered through Adventures for Creative Tourists, brings focus to the religious art at the National Gallery of Art in Washington.\nThe tour began as an option to mark Palm Sunday this year. Up to 30 people can take each tour. Particular attention is paid to artworks that either epitomize an artist, a style or technique. The history of religious art is the history of European art. Both were explored on the tour. The tour focuses on Christian art with 75 percent of the artists identifying as Catholic.\nThe tour guide, Meghan Hanson, studied anthropology, museum studies and art history at Indiana University. She attended a private Lutheran school from kindergarten to 10th grade, which inspired her fascination of the overlap between culture and religion.\nThe two-hour tour was enhanced byHanson sharing images of the paintings that were exposed to light, showing the changes the paintings have undergone in restoration.\nCertain subjects are explored in numerous pieces, including the Holy Family, the saints and parables.\nYou can see several pieces by the masters \u2014 \u201cThe Adoration of the Magi\u201d by Sandro Botticelli; \u201cThe Apostle Paul\u201d by Rembrandt van Rijn and Workshop; and \u201cThe Alba Madonna\u201d by Raphael.\nThe artistic mediums included paintings, wooden statues, a tall and ornate Florentine ciborium, a shield and stained-glass windows. Hanson said the materials used in the paintings include gold and leather punches.\n\u201cA lot of these were a form of worship or an offering, so the artists wanted to make sure they were using the best materials,\u201d she said.\nIf you are looking for a chance to get out of the rain or escape the heat of summer, check out a religious arts tour.\nGo to adventuresforcreativetourists.com, call 202/294-4265 or email advencreative@outlook.com.",

        "title": "Nebraska town rejects plan to create 1,100 jobs - CBS News",
        "raw_content": "Nebraska town rejects plan to create 1,100 jobs\nNICKERSON, Neb. - Half-ton pickup trucks crowd the curb outside the One Horse Saloon, a neon Coors Light sign in the window and rib-eye steaks on the menu. But otherwise Nickerson, Nebraska, is nearly silent on a spring evening, with only rumbling freight trains interrupting bird songs.\nRegional economic development officials thought it was the perfect spot for a chicken processing plant that would liven up the 400-person town with 1,100 jobs, more than it had ever seen. When plans leaked out, though, there was no celebration, only furious opposition that culminated in residents packing the fire hall to complain the roads couldn't handle the truck traffic, the stench from the plant would be unbearable and immigrants and out-of-towners would flood the area, overwhelming schools and changing the town's character.\n\"Everyone was against it,\" said Jackie Ladd, who has lived there for more than 30 years. \"How many jobs would it mean for people here? Not many.\"\nThe village board unanimously voted against the proposed $300 million plant, and two weeks later, the company said it would take their plant -- and money -- elsewhere.\nDeep-rooted, rural agricultural communities around the U.S. are seeking economic investments to keep from shedding residents, but those very places face trade-offs that increasing numbers of those who oppose meat processing plants and say they threaten to burden their way of life and bring in outsiders.\n\"Maybe it's just an issue of the times in which we live in which so many people want certain things, but they don't want the inconveniences that go with them,\" said Chris Young, executive director of the American Association of Meat Processors.\nNickerson fought against Georgia-based Lincoln Premium Poultry, which wanted to process 1.6 million chickens a week for warehouse chain Costco (COST). It was a similar story in Turlock, California, which turned down a hog-processing plant last fall, and Port Arthur, Texas, where residents last week stopped a meat processing plant. There also were complaints this month about a huge hog processing plant planned in Mason City, Iowa, but the project has moved ahead.\nThe Nickerson plant would have helped area farmers, who mostly grow corn and soybeans, start up poultry operations and buy locally grown grain for feed, said Willow Holliback, who lives 40 miles away and heads an agriculture group that backed the proposal.\n\"When farmers are doing well, the towns are doing well,\" she said.\nThe question of who would work the tough jobs was at the forefront of the debate, though many were adamant they aren't anti-immigrant. Opposition leader Randy Ruppert even announced: \"This is not about race. This is not about religion.\"\nBut both issues were raised at the raucous April 4 meeting where the local board rejected the plant. One speaker said he had toured a chicken processing plant elsewhere and felt nervous because most of the workers were minorities.\nMore overtly, John Wiegert, from nearby Fremont where two meat processors employ many immigrants, questioned whether Nickerson's plant would attract legal immigrants from Somalia -- more than 1,000 of whom have moved to other Nebraska cities for similar jobs, along with people from Mexico, Central America and Southeast Asia.\n\"Being a Christian, I don't want Somalis in here,\" Wiegert, who has led efforts to deny rental housing to immigrants in the country illegally, told the crowd. \"They're of Muslim descent. I'm worried about the type of people this is going to attract.\"\nOthers pointed out that, given that Nebraska's unemployment rate, near 3 percent, is among the nation's lowest, few local residents would accept the entry-level jobs. While the projected wage of $13 to $17 an hour was above the region's current median wage for production workers, opponents argued meat processors generally have high turnover.\n\"We aren't against jobs,\" farmer John Schauer said. \"We want clean, stable jobs.\"\nThe land is flat and rich around Nickerson, which is a half-mile off a narrow state highway about 30 miles from Omaha. The town's tidy but often faded single-story homes sit on large, grassy lots. There's a small cluster of commercial buildings, most of them long shuttered, and a grain elevator.\nIts school was demolished more than a decade ago, leaving only the old playground, but residents take pride in the regional school district. Superintendent Jeremy Klein told the village board he worried new students would overwhelm local schools and that tax breaks would limit any extra money to hire more teachers.\n\"It's impossible to know what the size of that impact will be,\" Klein said days later.\nPeople seem to be more willing than in earlier eras to fight developments they think could harm the environment or change an area's character, University of Nebraska-Lincoln economics professor Eric Thompson said, even if the development offers an economic boost.\nMason City official Brent Trout said he heard all the arguments against the $240 million plant planned some 200 miles northeast of Nickerson: What's the environmental impact of an operation that will process up to 22,000 hogs daily? How will 2,000 new jobs affect the isolated city of 27,500?\nIt's already hard to attract employers to Mason City, which has lost about 10 percent of its population over the last 30 years, he said. But, like Nickerson, Mason City's best selling point is its focus on agriculture: \"This is what Iowa is. This is what Iowa does,\" Trout said. \"We raise pigs and we process pigs.\"\nAlthough Nickerson residents have succeeded in pushing away the industrial-scale operation, opponents said they're getting better organized to help the town that's targeted next.\n\"I've lived in exotic places, but I've never wanted to live anywhere but here,\" said Chuck Folsom, an 88-year-old former Marine and farmer. \"We've got to protect the land. We're not making any more of it.\"",

        "raw_content": "If you need to move your business, the best place to start to plan how to pack and move is right here. I\u2019ve had a lot of requests from individuals who have been given the task of moving their company office and while moving an office is a large undertaking that may require additional help in the form of other colleagues (creating a committee) or by hiring professionals like Centurion moving and Storage.\nCreate a timeline that will allow for all the necessary stages of your move. You\u2019ll need to discuss this with the rest of your moving team or with the managers and supervisors to ensure it\u2019s feasible. For a small office, you\u2019ll need at least three months to prepare and for a medium to large office, at least six to eight months. The key is to start as early as possible.\nThe next step is to collect all information on the new space. Try to get blueprints or floor layout so you can identify key components such as electrical outlets, storage space, etc. and most importantly, to determine the new office layout. It is also a good idea to have a general layout plan for your current space so you can compare the two; if there are areas in the current office that are not working, identify them so that they can be resolved in your new space.\nAlso make a list of potential problems with the new space, such as a smaller reception area or less storage area or perhaps a larger open space that may require more cubicles or temporary walls.\nIt may be necessary to hire carpenters or painters if walls need to be constructed or painted. It may have been addressed when the new space was acquired, but just make sure that no additional construction or cosmetic changes need to be completed before the move.\nFor medium to large offices, I recommend appointing (or ask for volunteers), someone from each department or division to coordinate their particular area.\nIt could be assigned to the department supervisor or manager who can then ensure that each employee takes responsibility for packing their desk, files, and personal items. For smaller offices, you may be on your own. If so, identify a few key people who may be able to help with coordinating the move.\nYour team can also assist in identifying current issues with the old space and provide possible solutions for the new office. It is a great way to incorporate other viewpoints and to achieve consensus on the move if some are not quite excited about the change.\nIn your schedule, set regular meetings and make sure that employees are notified of meeting details and to ensure everyone knows what they need to do to pack up their office or workspace. It is important to keep everyone informed to limit any worries or concerns; moving is stressful for everyone involved especially if decisions are not being communicated.\nIf you have a specific budget amount assigned for your move, it will be important to identify costs before you hire movers, or even before you pack the first box.\nHave your moving committee create a list of tasks that need to be completed and make sure they are added to the timeline/schedule.\nYou may require specialty service providers, such as telephone line installers or computer network specialists. Ask each department manager or supervisor what is required from their area. Make sure common areas are covered, such as the reception area, lobby, and storage areas.\nOne of the most critical tasks is to hire the movers. There are moving companies that specialize in office moves. Just make sure you do your research, ask the right questions, and have the company come to your office to assess your move. Like any household move, you need to make sure the company is reliable and that you are receiving the best service for the cost. This task can be assigned to a few people, each calling specific companies then comparing notes. Start early to make sure you get the best price possible.\nMake a Contact List\nYou\u2019ll need to make sure that everyone you do business with, both suppliers and clients, know that you\u2019re moving.\nIt\u2019s a good idea to assign this task to one person to oversee. Notifying customers and clients requires specific communications around where you\u2019re moving to and how the business will operate during the move. Such information is essential to ensure your customers don\u2019t go elsewhere for your services.",

        "raw_content": "One student's fresh start a symbol for new Carpe Diem Shadeland charter school\nBy Scott Elliott - September 8, 2015\nStudent Quentin Brown welcomes dignitaries to the new Carpe Diem Shadeland charter school.\nTuesday was another nerve-wracking new start for Quentin Brown, this time standing before a gleaming, recently constructed school.\nBrown, wearing a red striped tie, tried not to sweat in the intense sunlight as he stepped forward to give the student speech welcoming dignitaries to the ribbon-cutting for the new Carpe Diem Shadeland charter school on the city\u2019s East side.\nBecause he can\u2019t help but gesture with his hands while speaking, Brown struggled a bit to keep the microphone close to his lips and his handwritten speech in sight as he talked. But when he spoke about how hard it can be to stay optimistic for the future, Brown didn\u2019t need the paper or the mic.\nStudents put their thumb prints and signatures on a learning tree as part of the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Carpe Diem Shadeland charter school.\n\u201cI thought I would just fail again like at the other schools,\u201d he said as he told his classmates of his worries walking in the door of a school where most of the learning is done on computer. \u201cI thought I had no hope. But they seemed enthusiastic about me coming to Carpe Diem.\u201d\nWhen Carpe Diem came to town three years ago with its first campus on Meridian Street, just south of Fall Creek, it was the city\u2019s first school to lean heavily on a cutting-edge but controversial strategy called \u201cblended learning.\u201d\nStudents spend most of their time sitting in cubicles learning independently by working through online programs.\nThe goal for Carpe Diem schools is 300 students and only five teachers. The Shadeland campus has about 80 students right now in grades 6-10. Students do meet in core classes for part of the day, where they focus on group work and individual help. Instructional aides also are on-hand in the school\u2019s large cubicle-laden main room to offer help.\nThe original campus now has about 225 students and posted strong initial test scores. It equaled the state average with 73 percent passing ISTEP \u2014 20 points above the IPS average \u2014 the first year, but the passing rate slipped in 2014 to 62.7 percent. The slide meant the school earned a D for its first grade.\nStill, it was a strong enough start that the Arizona-based company opened two new campuses. The other is on the West side on 38th Street.\nStudents write down their dreams as part of the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Carpe Diem Shadeland charter school.\n\u201cWe want to educate, we want to empower and we want to equip,\u201d said Harold Niehaus, Carpe Diem\u2019s chief learning officer. \u201cWe want take you from where you are and move you forward so you can be successful.\u201d\nThat\u2019s what Brown wants, too. He should be a senior, but he only has enough credits to be in 10th grade.\nTwo years ago, as Carpe Diem came to town, Brown was living through the transition at Arlington High School as the state took over from Indianapolis Public Schools and handed it off to be run by the Tindley charter school network.\nBack then, Brown was quoted in the Indianapolis Star saying he thought Arlington was improved after Tindley took over. It had been chaotic under IPS, he said. Brown said he struggled to learn in large classes, for example, when the district was in charge.\nThere were some good moments for Brown after the Tindley takeover. He played Lord Montague in a performance of Romeo and Juliet, for one. But the transition to Tindley was hard, too. There were new rules, but in other ways, he said, the school didn\u2019t change that much.\nCarpe Diem board Chairman Jason Bearce speaks at the ribbon cutting for the new Carpe Diem Shadeland campus.\n\u201cI\u2019m not trying to bash Arlington, but it wasn\u2019t a good fit for me,\u201d he said.\nAfter bouncing to other schools he was homeschooled last year. When he got a flyer in the mail about Carpe Diem, he and his mother decided to find out if he could get a fresh start there.\nBrown wasn\u2019t sure about the blended learning concept and spending so much time on a computer, but Principal Byron Brown (no relation) won him over.\n\u201cSometimes a change in environment or relationship can actually change a kid,\u201d Byron Brown said. \u201cLook at him. After just four weeks, he\u2019s giving a speech to the whole school.\u201d\nIn this story: Arlington High School, Byron Brown, Carpe Diem, Carpe Diem Shadeland, Charter schools, Harold Niehaus, Indianapolis Public Schools, Quentin Brown\nBy Dylan Peers McCoy - 12 mins ago",

        "raw_content": "On May 18, the Charles Koch Institute hosted Advancing American Security, a day-long conference dedicated to bringing together top policy experts for an honest and open inquiry into our nation\u2019s foreign policy.\nWilliam P. Ruger, vice president of research and policy at the Charles Koch Institute, explained why foreign policy is such a pressing issue: \u201cIt has huge ramifications for our security, prosperity, civil liberties, fiscal health, and our relationships with other nations and peoples. It is critical that we get our foreign policy right.\u201d\nWith this in mind, 14 speakers representing a range of experiences within and perspectives on the foreign policy field took the stage, helping to broaden the discussion about past, current, and future policy decisions. Together, the speakers carried the conversation through a survey of American intervention since the Cold War and were forward-looking in their discussions of how U.S. foreign policy\u2014particularly grand strategy\u2014should evolve.\nAndrew J. Bacevich, a retired Army colonel and professor emeritus at Boston University, was the first speaker of the day, addressing the question: \u201cHas American Foreign Policy Since the End of the Cold War Made America Safer?\u201d Bacevich argued that the challenges the United States faces today are a result of the decisions made at the end of the Cold War.\nAndrew Bacevich providing a very real reminder of #foreignpolicy costs during #AdvancingSecurity pic.twitter.com/akJvmMaNIN\n\u2014 Charles Koch Inst. (@CKinstitute) May 18, 2016\nFor Bacevich, the decision to pursue military solutions in places like Iraq and Libya makes him fear that \u201cwar has now become permanent.\u201d Challenging the current foreign policy establishment, argued Bacevich, is one way to push U.S. government officials to acknowledge the human and financial costs of military intervention.\nFollowing Bacevich\u2019s address was a debate between Kathleen H. Hicks of the Center for Strategic and International Studies and John J. Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago. Hicks and Mearsheimer\u2019s debate, \u201cEvaluating U.S. Foreign Policy Since the End of the Cold War,\u201d touched on nation-building, the best and worst foreign policy decisions made in recent history, and the history and consequences of NATO enlargement. One point they both agreed on was that the third round of NATO enlargement, which occurred in 2009, was a mistake that only furthered tensions between the United States and Russia.\nBringing a different perspective to the day was retired Colonel Gian Gentile, a senior historian at the RAND Corporation, and Chas Freeman Jr., former U.S. assistant secretary of defense and ambassador to Saudi Arabia. During their panel, \u201cPractitioners of U.S. Foreign Policy: Views From the Field,\u201d Gentile and Freeman talked about how their experiences with the military and foreign service informed their views of U.S. grand strategy.\nSpeaking with moderator Dan McCarthy, editor of The American Conservative, Freeman and Gentile both highlighted the gap between public perception and what practitioners know to be true. Gentile made this point most clear by discussing his tour of duty in Baghdad, noting that the narrative of \u201cthe surge\u201d had increased public optimism that there was a military solution to the problems in Iraq. Yet, Gentile argued, the number of troops required to truly engage in a nation-building effort would have required more than a half-million military personnel and would have conflicted with the primary objective to defeat al Qaeda.\nDuring lunch, Stephen M. Walt of the Harvard Kennedy School of Government delivered a keynote address on \u201cChallenging the Status Quo: An Alternative Approach to Foreign Policy.\u201d His speech diverged from earlier conversations by outlining a strategy of \u201coffshore balancing.\u201d This strategy, according to Walt, would maintain the United States\u2019 military superiority in the Western Hemisphere and also maintain sufficient military power to challenge potential rising hegemons in Europe, East Asia, and the Persian Gulf without becoming involved in conflicts that do not directly threaten the security of United States.\n\u201cWe could use a healthy skepticism about the utility of military force.\u201d\u2013@mcdesch on \u201cblunt instruments\u201d in strategy #AdvancingSecurity\nThe final two panels of the day provided a forward-facing view of American foreign policy. The first of these, \u201cThe Future of U.S. Grand Strategy,\u201d brought together Michael C. Desch of the University of Notre Dame, Michael E. O\u2019Hanlon of the Brookings Institution, and Eugene Gholz of The University of Texas at Austin for a broad discussion about the future constraints and threats facing the United States.\nModerator William Ruger started the discussion by defining grand strategy in a narrow sense (i.e., \u201ca statement of how military means can be used to accomplish national or state goals in its foreign relations\u201d) and in a broad sense (i.e., \u201csomething akin to a foreign policy vision, namely a country\u2019s roadmap for how it ought to manage its international interests and obligations\u201d).\nDesch and O\u2019Hanlon diverged in their respective preferences for the narrow and broad definitions. For Desch, the narrow definition of grand strategy helped avoid \u201cmission creep,\u201d and though O\u2019Hanlon agreed that grand strategy\u2019s main purpose is to keep the United States safe from threats like invasion and terrorism, he explained that his preference for the broader definition of grand strategy allows consideration of other significant interests, including protecting allies, achieving economic success, and stopping nuclear proliferation\nGholz, meanwhile, maintained that a broad definition of grand strategy (closer to O\u2019Hanlon\u2019s preferences) is in line with the liberal hegemonic model and provides a large margin of error for interventions like the Iraq War. Instead, he argued that the future of U.S. foreign policy should follow a more restrained strategy that abides by narrow definitions of grand strategy and national interests.\nThe final panel of the day, \u201cAdvice for the 45th President,\u201d featured Richard K. Betts of Columbia University, Barry R. Posen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Christopher A. Preble of the Cato Institute, and Heather Hurlburt of New America. According to all of the panelists, the next president must assess and acknowledge the missteps and failures of current U.S. foreign policy. However, the panelists all had distinct views on how to address these challenges.\n\u201cSecurity in the U.S. is about safety, protecting liberty, and territorial integrity.\u201d\u2013Barry Posen of @MIT_SSP #advancingsecurity\nPosen began by cautioning the next president against following ready-made plans. He offered President Obama\u2019s decision to surge in Afghanistan as an example of a misstep that resulted from military advisers being eager to offer a clear solution. Meanwhile, Hurlburt argued that the next president would have to maintain the United States\u2019 position as an advocate for human rights, though she acknowledged that this would not always require military force.\nPreble directed attention to the need for federal counterterrorism agencies to provide robust analyses of the costs and benefits associated with their operations, and Betts argued that the current foreign policy is unsustainable in terms of the United States\u2019 commitments abroad and financial burden. He recommended that the next president avoid unequivocal statements committing the United States to a particular course of action without getting a sense of the accompanying costs.\nTogether, the speakers\u2019 range of views helped to broaden the conversation surrounding U.S. foreign policy, re-evaluate the status quo, and better inform decisions regarding grand strategy. In an effort to continue these conversations, the Charles Koch Foundation invites proposals for research projects related to foreign policy.\nWatch each session:\nPractitioners of U.S. Foreign Policy: Views From the Field\nChallenging the Status Quo: An Alternative Approach to Foreign Policy",

        "raw_content": "\"If You're White, You're Racist\"\nBy:Hugh Cadfael | March 31, 2015\nThose of us blinded by white privilege are fortunate to live in this enlightened age. Without PCs, Facebook, Twitter and publications like Salon.com, we\u2019d never know how bad we are.\nWe are thus instructed by this hysterical tweet from Salon\u2019s Twitter feed on March 27: \u201cIf you\u2019re white, you\u2019re racist and don\u2019t realize it. http://slnm.us/PtdXyAA\u201d. As The Daily Caller noted in picking this up, the line is so batty it appeared to have come from the Salondotcom parody Twitter feed.\nBut alas, it\u2019s the real thing. The tweet links to a piece at Salon, which in turn lifted it from Alternet, another of the left-wing attics where the moonbats nest. The headline at that site was this: \u201cHey, Smug White People: You (Yes, You) Are a Racist, Too/Don\u2019t imagine that being a racist is something that only happens to other people.\u201d\nThe piece offers a list of claims purportedly showing that most whites are racist even if they don\u2019t know it. The myriad unproven claims aren\u2019t worth unpacking in detail, but consider just this one tendentious half-truth: \u201c[B]lack students \u2014 even preschoolers \u2014 are far more likely to be suspended from school than white students. (That fact is even truer for dark-skinned black students.)\u201d\nNote here the usual left-wing tactic: Point to a disparity between officialdom\u2019s treatment of blacks and whites, then splutter that \u201cbias,\u201d \u201chate\u201d or \u201cracism\u201d explains the disparity. Don\u2019t mention the obvious: Blacks are suspended from school more often than whites because blacks cause more trouble.\nHere, then, is the lesson we are supposed to get:\nRacism is comfortable and easy; it helps us make quick, baseless decisions without the taxing act of thinking. The next time you catch yourself having a racist thought or feeling, try not brushing it off. Ask yourself where it came from, what it means and how you can unpack it. Because if the evidence above suggests anything, it\u2019s that critical self-examination is our only hope of moving the needle at all on this thing. Stop imagining that being racist is something that only other people do, and start looking closely at your own beliefs.\nYou may prepare for your self-criticism and struggle sessions.\nThe source of this odious thought is prejudicial given they assume I give a damn about being tagged as a racist.\nVDare ran a piece recently discussing attempts of at least one White Nationalist to \"appropriate\" the word \"racist\" the way Black Power rappers appropriated the n-word and second-wave Feminists appropriated the b-word, and expressed skepticism that this might catch on. But if the left keeps this up, I'm starting to think VDare might have been overly pessimistic on that point.\nBos Bob\n... then please don't give a damn to that twitter feed. Then please tell your children and others who you think the real racists are (unless you think the notion of the so-called real racists is by itself not appealing, or you think no action or reaction is necessary). If you really feel there is an urgency in what we need or must do, if you think there is too much nonsense and too little time, as we could all agree that time is running out and time does not seem to be on \"our side\", if you think what we are doing is part of the problem not part of solution, or if you believe what we are doing is not at all effective, then we must be serious and think more critically, we must stop being ineffective, or we must disengage and retreat to and fortify around a bottom line - whatever it may be - to ward off calamity, first of all financial and economic catastrophe or a slow death. Culture is a central problem but no logic could claim or lead us to the conclusion that the cultural war must be fought first and won next. May be you have to fight this war first, may be not ...\nBrock Henderson\nWhat you should glean from the Far Left's actions nowadays, Mr. Fox, is that they plan to MAKE you give a damn. Having been molded by Cultural Marxism, the Left is a well-oiled machine as it carries out is plan to destroy the West, one which operates quite like a well-known fictional machine of American sci-fi cinema, the Terminator. I'll let a protagonist from the famous 1984 film describe it for you: \"It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.\"\nThe relationship between this anti-racist nuttiness and the communist past is obvious, with a single difference. The communists were atheists, and avowed enemies of the Church. And while many churches were always rather soft on communism in a pacifist sort of way, at least they opposed the persecution of the religious, and the Catholic Church was always strong on religious truth and freedom of worship, even before John Paul II. Today, however, in the matter of this 'marxisant' anti-racism (really, veiled hatred of whites and the West), the Church is itself a huge part of the problem. It was always perfectly apparent to me that Christian proclamations of the \"brotherhood of man\" were spiritual statements and aspirational guides to human ethical behavior, not meant as literal empirical descriptions of the world, or guides to public policy. Yet all too many naive Christians seem to think that following Jesus means \"embracing the Other\", even when the Other is clamoring for territorial entry in nation-shattering numbers, and is the bearer of a culture (in the anthropological sense) that is at once, alien, threatening, and behaviorally/morally inferior to your own. THAT is not Christianity, but liberalism (perhaps dressed up in theological finery). A large part of the West's salvation will come not only from returning to Christianity, but reforming its understanding of human biodiversity to allow unique cultures the political 'space' to impose such measures as are necessary to ensure their own perpetuity. But that all this \"white privilege\" nonsense is both patently absurd, and part of a propaganda war against whites as a group to facilitate the latter's dispossession and disempowerment, is beyond dispute.",

        "title": "Robert Conquest Demolished Myths About Communism | Chronicles Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Robert Conquest Demolished Myths About Communism\nBy:Chronicles | August 28, 2015\nThe following article by Allan C. Brownfeld appeared originally at the website of FGFBooks.com and is reprinted with permission.\nRobert Conquest, a historian whose landmark studies of the Stalinist purges and the Ukraine famine of the 1930s documented the horrors perpetrated by the Soviet regime against its own citizens, has died at 98, having outlived the Soviet Union\u2014which came into being in the year of his birth, 1917\u2014and which he helped to bring down with information.\nIt is hard for many today to believe, but there was a time when intellectuals in the West were enthralled with Communism and viewed Lenin and Stalin in heroic terms.\nConsider the German playwright Bertolt Brecht, who created the modern propaganda play. When he visited the apartment of American philosopher Sidney Hook in 1935, Stalin\u2019s purges were just beginning. Hook, raising the cases of Zinoviev and Kamenev, asked Brecht how he could bear to work with the American Communists who were trumpeting their guilt. Brect replied that the only body which mattered was the Soviet party. During the entire course of Stalin\u2019s purges, Brecht never uttered a word of protest. When Stalin died, Brecht declared: \u201cThe oppressed of all five continents . . . must have felt their heart-beats stop when they heard that Stalin was dead. He was the embodiment of their hopes.\u201d\nThe French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, in a July1954 interview with \u201cLiberation,\u201d shortly after returning from a visit to Russia, said that Soviet citizens did not travel, not because they were prevented from doing so, but because they had no desire to leave their wonderful country. \u201cThe Soviet citizens,\u201d he said, \u201ccriticize their government much more and more effectively than we do.\u201d\nLillian Hellman, the American playwright, visited Russia in October 1937, when Stalin\u2019s purge trials were at their height. On her return, she said she knew nothing about them. In 1938 she was among the signatories of an ad in the Communist publication \u201cNew Masses\u201d which approved the trials. She supported the 1939 Soviet invasion of Finland, stating, \u201cI don\u2019t believe in that fine, lovable little Republic of Finland that everyone gets so weepy about. I've been there and it looks like a pro-Nazi little republic to me.\u201d There is absolutely no evidence that Hellman ever visited Finland.\nOr consider the case of New York Times correspondent Walter Duranty, who covered the Soviet Union in the 1930s. In the midst of the enforced famine in the Ukraine, Duranty visited the region and denied that starvation and death were rampant.\nIn November 1932, Duranty reported that \u201cthere is no famine or actual starvation or is there likely to be.\u201d For false reporting, Walter Duranty received the Pulitzer Prize of 1932, which complimented him for \u201cdispassionate reporting of the news from Russia.\u201d The citation declared that Duranty\u2019s dispatches, which the world now knows to have been false, were \u201cmarked by scholarly profundity, impartiality, sound judgment, and exceptional clarity.\u201d\nIn 2008, marking the 40th anniversary of the publication of The Great Terror, Robert Conquest wrote a preface noting that, \u201cThe history of the period covered by \u2018The Great Terror\u2019 sees the enforcement of Stalin\u2019s totally intolerant belief system\u2014with terror as the decisive argument. Terror meant terrorizing. Mass terror means terrorizing the whole population, and must be accompanied by the most complete exposure of the worst enemies of the people, of the party line, and do of the truth. We know the results.\u201d\nIn 1968, when the book came out, five years before Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn\u2019s The Gulag Archipelago appeared in the West, Conquest noted that, \u201cIt was still true that, as the great historian Francois Furet noted, after the war and the decline of fascism, \u2018all the major debates on postwar ideas revolved around a single question: the nature of the Soviet regime.\u2019 He adds the paradox that Communism had two main embodiments\u2014as a backward despotism, and as a constituency in the West that had to be kept unaware of the other\u2019s reality. And, up to the last, this was often accompanied by a view of the Cold War as an even exchange\u2014with the imputation that any denigration of the Soviet regime was due to peace-hating prejudices.\u201d\nSince the end of the Cold War, the reality of Communism\u2019s terror and brutality has been widely discussed. In 1999, The Black Book of Communism, an 846-page academic study that blames Communism for the deaths of between 85 million and 100 million people worldwide, became a bestseller. It estimates that the ideology claimed 45 million to 72 million in China, 20 million in the Soviet Union, between 1.3 million to 2.3 million in Cambodia, 2 million in North Korea, 1.7 million in Africa, 1.5 million in Afghanistan, one million in Vietnam, one million in Eastern Europe, and 150,000 in Latin America.\nIn The Great Terror, Robert Conquest for the first time set forth the scope of Stalin's purges: seven million people arrested in the peak years, 1937 and 1938; one million executed; two million dead in the concentration camps. Conquest estimated the death toll for the Stalin era at no less than 20 million.\n\u201cHis historical intuition was astonishing,\u201d said Norman N. Naimark, a professor of Eastern European history at Stanford University. \u201cHe saw things clearly without having access to archives or internal information from the Soviet government. We had a whole industry of Soviet historians who were exposed to a lot of the same material but did not come up with the same conclusions. This was groundbreaking, pioneering work.\u201d\nConquest returned to the subject of the 1930s in 1986 with his study The Harvest of Sorrow: Soviet Collectivization and the Terror Famine, covering Stalin\u2019s campaign to bring Ukraine to heel and pay for industrial development by expropriating grain from peasant farmers. Millions died in the state-organized famine and the wave of mass arrests. In his preface, Conquest writes: \u201cIn the actions here recorded about 20 human lives were lost, not for every word, but for every letter in this book.\u201d\nRobert Conquest, born in England, graduated from Oxford and in his youth joined the Communist Party. During World War II, he served as an intelligence officer in Bulgaria, and later remained as the press officer at the British Embassy in Sofia. Observing the reality of Communism, he emerged as a forceful and effective opponent. In 1977, he became a senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.\nWhen The Great Terror was published, many leftist intellectuals rejected Conquest\u2019s thesis that Stalin\u2019s regime was a natural evolution of Leninism rather than an aberration. Conquest, also a poet, responded:\nThere was a great Marxist called Lenin\nWho did two or three million men in,\nThat's a lot to have done in,\nBut where he did one in,\nThat grand Marxist Stalin did ten in.\nSince the Russian Revolution of 1917, the world was engaged for many years in a struggle between freedom and tyranny. Now that the reality of Communism\u2019s horrors are widely known, it is only proper that we remember those who defended liberty and those who did not.\nIn his forward to the 40th anniversary edition of The Great Terror, Robert Conquest write: \u201cOne of the strongest notions put forward about Stalinism is that in the interests of \u2018objectivity\u2019 we must be\u2014wait for it\u2014\u2018nonjudgmental.\u2019 But to ignore, or downplay, the realities of Soviet history is itself a judgment and a very misleading one.\u201d\nWhile many in the West embraced Communism and were slow to recognize its reality, Robert Conquest played an important role in making the truth about that system known and understood.\nAs the history of this period continues to be written and examined, his role will be a significant one. Being a truth-teller is often a difficult enterprise. He undertook it with skill and, fortunately for all of us, he succeeded.",

        "raw_content": "Wisdom teeth are usually the last four of 32 teeth to erupt in the mouth, when people are around the ages of 17 to 25. They typically need to be extracted because they can cause a host of oral health problems.\nThey are located at the back of the mouth (top and bottom), near the entrance to the throat. The term \u201cwisdom\u201d stems from the idea that the molars surface at a time typically associated with increased maturity or \u201cwisdom\u201d.\nIn most cases, inadequate space in the mouth does not allow the wisdom teeth to erupt properly and become fully functional. When this happens, the tooth can become impacted (stuck) in an undesirable or potentially harmful position.\nDamage to nearby teeth \u2013 Second molars (the teeth directly in front of the wisdom teeth) can be adversely affected by impacted wisdom teeth, resulting in tooth decay (cavities), periodontal disease (gum disease) and possible bone loss.\nDisease \u2013 Although uncommon, cysts and tumors can occur in the areas surrounding impacted wisdom teeth.\nInfection \u2013 Bacteria and food can become trapped under the gum tissue, resulting in an infection.

        "raw_content": "Gartner Reveals Enterprise Mobility is Surging\nBy Josette Rigsby | Nov 7, 2012\nIf you had any doubts that more people are using smart devices, Gartner\u2019s new study should eliminate any lingering uncertainty. According to the analyst firm, smart phone and tablet use is surging in the enterprise, changing the very nature of how we do business.\nIt\u2019s All About Mobility\nNew statistics from Gartner show that the mobile device market is still strong. Analysts project 821 million smart phones and tablets will be purchased globally in 2012. The number is expected to exceed the one billion mark in 2013. Despite this enormous growth, Gartner notes that the PC is not dead; it will continue to play a role in enterprise computing.\nTablets are having a significant impact on the expansion of enterprise mobility. Gartner estimates that in 2012 purchases of tablets by businesses will reach 13 million units and will more than triple by 2016, to reach 53 million units.\nCompanies are not just buying iPads. Windows 8 will take third place in the tablet market after Apple and Android by 2016. Gartner believes this growth will largely be driven by business demand rather than consumers. Tablets and convertibles will be the way into businesses for Windows 8. Gartner estimates that the share of Windows 8 tablets in businesses will reach 39 percent in 2016.\nApple use remains strong, but Android is also making progress in the enterprise. The firm projects 56 percent of the smartphones businesses purchase in North America and Europe will be Android-based by 2016. This is a sizable increase from the 34 percent penetration the mobile OS has in 2012.\nAlthough many technology leaders initially resisted the influx of devices into the enterprise, consumerization is continuing to spread, and the trend shows no signs of slowing. Gartner explained,\nOver the past year, we have seen consumer preferences shaping not only the vendors\u2019 landscape but also the way IT departments need to think about devices in the enterprise with BYOD becoming a part of the devices policy. \"\nThe increasing use of mobile devices in the enterprise is about more than making users happy. It has been shown to significantly improve responsiveness and productivity.\nTags byod, digital workplace, enterprise 2.0, enterprise collaboration, enterprise mobility, gartner, mobile, mobile enterprise, social business",

        "title": "With world their stage, one last presidential clash | Center for a New American Security",
        "raw_content": "With world their stage, one last presidential clash\nMitt Romney\u2019s criticism of President Obama\u2019s foreign policy has been unrelenting. The Republican presidential nominee has said Obama has let US dominance fall by the wayside, botched military withdrawals, let Iran move closer to nuclear capability, coddled China, and mishandled the Arab revolutions.\nObama, in turn, has suggested that Romney is a foreign policy novice who is posturing on Iran. Romney, he says, risks dragging a war-weary nation into another conflict, will sacrifice domestic programs to spend an extra and unneeded $2 trillion on defense, and will let a band of neoconservatives from the George W. Bush administration regain power.\nThus the stage is set for a fierce collision when the two meet Monday night in Florida for a foreign policy debate \u2014 the last debate to be held before Election Day \u2014 in which the positions of the candidates on war and world affairs will be on center stage in a way that hasn\u2019t yet occurred in this campaign.\nWhile the campaign has recently been consumed over questions about whether Obama misstated the reasons for the attack on a US consulate in Libya, the debate is likely to focus on a far larger question dividing the candidates when it comes to foreign policy: How far should the United States go in exerting its military might and geopolitical influence around the world, and at what cost?\nAnalysts said the candidates have surprisingly similar policies on some key foreign issues, such as the 2014 withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. But Obama and Romney have projected a starkly different view of how American power should be used in the future.\n\u201cEven if it turns out they agree point for point on America\u2019s role in the world, there can be tremendous disagreement on how you implement that,\u201d said Nora Bensahel, a senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, a nonpartisan national security think tank in Washington.\nIt is telling, analysts said, that the shadow of George W. Bush administration hangs over the foreign policy of both candidates. Obama has spent much of his term extricating the United States from wars that began under his predecessor, while Romney\u2019s advisers include some of Bush\u2019s most hawkish former aides, raising questions about whether the nominee is planning for a renaissance of neoconservative policy.\nIn the wake of the killing of Osama bin Laden, foreign policy has been perceived as one of Obama\u2019s greatest strengths. But Romney\u2019s recent attacks on the president have helped close that gap. A poll conducted earlier this month by the Pew Research Center found that Obama is viewed as a better foreign policy leader than Romney by a four-point margin, compared with a 15-point advantage one month earlier.\nObama generally prefers a coalition approach and has strived to keep US ground troops out of new conflicts.\n\u201cPresident Obama came in and took a very different approach to US leadership than the Bush administration, which Romney seems to want to go back to,\u201d Michele Flournoy, Obama\u2019s former undersecretary of defense for policy, said in an interview. \u201cThe first term of Bush was threatening the use of military instruments and often being out front and alone.\n\u201cThis president has said US leadership is about leveraging our alliance and partnerships to bring the international community together for more effective action. Yes, obviously we will take unilateral action when vital interests require it, i.e., [killing] bin Laden. But the preferred and more effective strategy is to lead others to the table. That is a fundamentally different approach in philosophy and style.\u201d\nRomney often has been bellicose, saying that he would be more willing to use American power to shape the world. But some of his charges have raised questions about how he would follow up if he becomes president. Romney, who has accused Obama of being too soft on China, has said he would declare the country a currency manipulator, a move that some fear could set off a new trade war, while Obama has said Romney is \u201cthe last person who is going get tough with China.\u201d\nOne of Romney\u2019s most controversial foreign policy statements came when he said that Russia is the \u201cNo. 1 geopolitical foe\u201d of the United States, evoking memories of the Cold War.\n\u201cI\u2019d like to know where the devil he gets that idea. It\u2019s preposterous,\u201d said Leslie Gelb, former president of the nonpartisan Council on Foreign Relations. Gelb, like a number of analysts, said that Romney has both \u201crealists\u201d and \u201cneoconservatives\u201d among his advisers, and he said the latter appear to have pushed him to excoriate Russia.\nThe Obama administration counts its \u201creset\u201d of relations with Moscow as a major accomplishment that smoothed the way for Russian cooperation against Iran, including the cancellation of a large sale of defense equipment to Tehran. But Romney has called for a tougher stance, and says he would not normalize trade relations with Moscow until Congress passes a law targeting human rights abusers in Russia.\nAlex Wong, the Romney campaign\u2019s foreign policy director, defended the characterization of Russia as the nation\u2019s primary foe, accusing Moscow of watering down sanctions against Iran. \u201cThis relationship has actually deteriorated over the last four years, and on every front Russia has been working to frustrate American interests,\u201d he said.\nOne of the major questions about Romney is what brand of adviser would have the most influence if he becomes president. For example, former World Bank president Robert Zoellick, who comes from the more moderate realist camp, is running Romney\u2019s national security transition team, while Dan Senor, widely considered to come from the more hawkish neoconservative camp, is a top adviser to Romney and running mate Paul Ryan.\nWong, asked if Romney considers himself a neoconservative, \u201cGovernor Romney\u2019s foreign policy doctrine is he will do whatever it takes to make America stronger.\u201d\nAnalysts said that, notwithstanding some harsh rhetoric, the two candidates have more in common than may be widely realized on issues regarding Iran, Israel, Afghanistan, and Libya.\nIn a recent speech at the Virginia Military Institute, for example, Romney said Obama \u201chas failed to lead in Syria.\u201d But much of Romney\u2019s policy mirrors that of the president. Both men have opposed using US air power to create no-fly zones or safe havens, rejecting a proposal from Senator John McCain, the Arizona Republican. Romney has said that he wants to help get arms to rebels, with the major caveat they must \u201cshare our values,\u201d a vague condition that may be hard for a president to implement.\nA key Romney adviser and leading neoconservative, former US ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton, has said rebels who are \u201ctruly secular\u201d should receive arms. (Bolton did not respond to a request for comment.) The Obama administration has said it won\u2019t send weapons directly to the rebels, citing concern that they might get into the hands of terrorists, but has encouraged the shipment of some lighter arms via other countries.\nOn Afghanistan, the policy differences are nuanced. Romney backs the administration\u2019s plan for withdrawing troops by 2014, but has also attacked Obama for publicizing the date in advance, arguing it would embolden terrorists who could simply wait out the next two years. The administration counters that setting a firm date is necessary to convince the Afghan government that it must step up to take responsibility for its security.\nThe White House says that international sanctions against Iran are working but that all options including military force are on the table to stop the country from getting a nuclear weapon. But despite pressure from Israel, the administration has declined to specify under exactly what conditions it might take military action.\nRomney has given shifting explanations for when he would use force against Iran. He said during a visit to Israel this summer that he would not allow Iran to gain a \u201cnuclear weapons capability.\u201d In an interview with ABC News this fall, though, Romney appeared to raise his threshold from simply gaining a capability. \u201cMy red line is Iran may not have a nuclear weapon,\u201d he said, a stance that appeared to mirror the president\u2019s policy.\nThe clearest difference between the two candidates, though, may be on defense spending. Obama has proposed paring back planned expenditures by $487 billion over the next 10 years, while Romney has promised to increase spending on the basic military budget until it reaches 4 percent of GDP, up from a projected 3.5 percent in the 2013 budget. That would translate into about an additional $2 trillion over the next 10 years. He has not accounted for how all the extra money would be spent, and critics have questioned the idea of basing military spending on a percentage of GDP.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no strategy behind it,\u201d Flournoy, of the Obama campaign, said at a Thursday debate in Washington with a Romney foreign policy adviser. \u201cHow in the world are you going to pay for it, especially if you are not willing to increase taxes for the wealthiest Americans?\u201d\nRomney adviser Dov S. Zakheim, an undersecretary of defense in the George W. Bush administration, responded at the debate that defense spending is not a major part of the debt problem. \u201cThe problem is entitlements,\u201d he said, referring to programs such as Social Security and Medicare. \u201cIt is not defense. Defense is practically a rounding error. So if you want to go ahead and trade defense as a hostage for the issues that have to be dealt with, go right ahead. But the only people you will be helping are the Iranians, North Koreans, the Venezuelans, and others like them.\u201d\nObama last week jokingly previewed what doubtless will be one of his key debate talking points on Monday night. \u201cSpoiler alert,\u201d Obama said. \u201cWe got bin Laden.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Cocktail gids > Boeken > Questions of Taste -\nInterest in and consumption of wine have grown exponentially in recent years and there has been a corresponding increase in consumers' knowledge of wine, which in turn has generated discussions about the meaning and value of wine in our lives and how renowned wine critics influence our subjective assessment of quality and shape public tastes. Wine first played a part in Western philosophy at the symposium of the early Greek philosophers where it enlivened and encouraged discussion. During the Enlightenment David Hume recommended drinking wine with friends as a cure for philosophical melancholy, while Immanuel Kant thought wine softened the harsher sides of men's characters and made their company more convivial. In Questions of Taste , the first book in any language on the subject, philosophers such as Roger Scruton and wine professionals like Andrew Jefford, author of the award-winning book The New France , turn their attention to wine as an object of perception, assessment and appreciation. They and their fellow contributors examine the relationship between a wine's qualities and our knowledge of them; the links between the scientifically describable properties of wine and the conscious experience of the wine taster; what we base our judgements of quality on and whether they are subjective or objective; and, the distinction between the cognitive and sensory aspects of taste. They also examine: whether wine appreciation is an aesthetic experience; the role language plays in describing and evaluating wines; the significance of their intoxicating effect on us; the meaning and value of drinking wine with others; whether disagreement leads to relativism about judgements of taste; and whether we can really share the pleasures of drinking. Questions of Taste will be of interest to all those fascinated by the production and consumption of wine and how it affects our minds in ways we might not hitherto have suspected.",

It is one of the results of the Statement of Intent signed on 1 April 2014 by the Secretary General of the Council of Europe and the European Union Commissioner for Enlargement and European Neighbourhood Policy, in which both Organisations agreed to further strengthen their co-operation in key areas of joint interest.\nThe Horizontal Facility will cover actions of the Council of Europe in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, \u201cThe former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia\u201d as well as Kosovo*. Turkey will not be recipient of technical assistance but may benefit under this Facility from the Council of Europe legislative expertise under the Expertise Co-ordination Mechanism.\nHow long will the Horizontal Facility last?\nThe Horizontal Facility is a three-year programme, which is being implemented by the Council of Europe from May 2016 over a period of 36 months.\nHow much will the Horizontal Facility cost?\nThe envelope of this facility amounts to 25 Million EUR (80% funded by the EU, 20% by the CoE).\nWhat will the Horizontal Facility do?\nThrough the Horizontal Facility, the European Union and the Council of Europe will assist beneficiaries in South-East Europe to comply with Council of Europe standards and European Union acquis in the framework of the enlargement process. The Horizontal Facility relies on the Council of Europe\u2019s unique working methods, whereby tailor-made technical co-operation activities are based on conclusions and recommendations of the Council of Europe\u2019s monitoring bodies highlight areas where improvements are needed in legislation and policies of the beneficiaries to comply with the Organisation\u2019s treaties and other standards.\nThemes covered by the Horizontal Facility include:\nEnsuring justice;\nFighting economic crime;\nCombating discrimination and protecting the rights of vulnerable groups (including LGBTI, minorities and Roma).\nAll the themes are key priorities of the two Organisations in the Western Balkans region.\nAll Horizontal Facility actions will address cross-cutting issues such as gender mainstreaming, protection of minorities and vulnerable groups and foresees the engagement of civil society organisations in the implementation of the Horizontal Facility.\nHF Twitter",

        "raw_content": "James McLean brought a Court application asking a judge to determine whether his proposed business model to provide local sight tests and using an Alberta-based ophthalmologist to sign the \u201cprescriptions\u201d was lawful. The Attorney General of Ontario, joined by the College of Opticians of Ontario along with this College argued that Mr. McLean could not do so. On January 5, 2015, the judge agreed.\nMr. McLean is an Ontario optician who practises out of Hamilton. A company that he controls, 2217758 Ontario Inc., leased an automated refraction device called \u201cEyelogic System.\u201d The Eyelogic System conducts sight tests, measures the refractive error of the eye, and automatically generates a prescription.\nMr. McLean wanted to use the Eyelogic System to conduct sight tests. Mr. McLean would then send the results and preliminary \u201cprescription\u201d to an ophthalmologist practising in Alberta who, based on the information, would issue a prescription. Armed with that prescription, Mr. McLean would dispense the eyeglasses.\nMr. McLean believed there is no law or legislation that stops him from doing so, and asked the Court to agree. The Attorney General, College of Opticians of Ontario, and this College opposed this kind of interpretation. Their primary argument was that an Ontario optician cannot dispense eyewear based on a prescription written by an optometrist or ophthalmologist who has not examined the customer. This College\u2019s Optometric Practice Reference states:\nRefractive assessment alone does not provide sufficient information to allow an optometrist to issue an appropriate prescription for subnormal vision devices, contact lenses or eyeglasses.\nThe judge agreed. He went on, however, to talk about what role opticians can play in refraction. He described an optician\u2019s scope of practice as the \u201cprovision, fitting and adjustment of corrective eyewear.\u201d While the judge observed that performing refractive tests does not fall within the scope of practice of opticians, he also stated the Opticianry Act suggests that there is room for opticians to be involved in the evaluation process. He pointed out that there remains a stalemate on what role opticians can play in refraction because neither the College of Optometrists nor the College of Physicians and Surgeons have agreed on what those standards should be. The judge concluded by saying that this was a matter for the Ontario government to resolve. He stated:\nOn the evidence before me, it is clear that there is unfinished business relating to the appropriate model for regulation of refractive testing by Ontario health care professionals.\nIt ultimately falls on the Minister as part of the Ontario government to resolve the issues raised by this policy debate in a timely manner, consistent with attendant health care concerns. In my view, it is not appropriate for the court to become involved in this process in the absence of compelling grounds for doing so. I do not consider such grounds to exist in this case.\nMr. McLean was ordered to contribute $23,000 toward the Attorney General\u2019s costs.\nClick here to read the Court decision (PDF).",

        "raw_content": "Supreme Court Strikes a Blow Against Public Labor Unions With 'Janus v. AFSCME' Decision\nThe case addressed whether public-sector workers who refuse to join the union should have to pay \"fair share\" dues to support the union's collective bargaining on behalf of all employees.\nUnion members hold signs during a rally outside of San Francisco City Hall on February 26, 2018 in San Francisco, California. Hundreds of union members held a rally outside of San Francisco City Hall as the U.S. Supreme Court begins to hear oral arguments in the Janus v. AFSCME case.\nIn a rebuke to public sector unions, The Supreme Court this morning (June 27) ruled in favor of plaintiff Mark Janus in Janus v. AFSCME, Council 31.\nAt issue in the case was whether employees who choose not to join their public-sector job\u2019s union should still be required to pay \u201dfair share\u201d or \u201cagency\u201d fees to cover the cost of collective bargaining on behalf of all employees. The defense argued that non-members benefit from union contract negotiations regardless of their membership. The plaintiffs claimed that the fees violated the First Amendment rights of non-members.\nThe Court decision was 5-4 along ideological lines. According to SCOTUS blog, Justice Elena Kagan, who wrote the main dissent, warned that the ruling could disrupt thousands of ongoing contracts that cover millions of workers.\nThe case was originally filed in 2015 by Illinois\u2019 newly elected anti-union Republican governor Bruce Rauner, a former private equity executive with a reported net worth $500 million. While the Federal District Court of Illinois stripped the case from Rauner for lack of cause, it allowed three public workers, including child-support specialist Mark Janus, to become plaintiffs.\nIn response to the decision President Trump tweeted\u2014inaccurately\u2014that non-union workers \u201care now, as an example, able to support a candidate of his or her choice without having those who control the Union deciding for them.\u201d According to CBS Money Watch, unions have been prohibited from spending non-union members\u2019 funds on political activity for 41 years.\nThe president was correct about one point he made in his uncharacteristically lucid tweet. Janus is indeed a \u201cBig loss for the coffers of the Democrats!\u201d\nThe Open Secrets blog of the Center for Responsive Politics reports that the public unions overwhelmingly and reliably support Democratic Congressional candidates over Republicans. For example, so far this year, public sector unions have spent over $6.4 million on Democratic candidates compared to some $1.3 million on Republicans.\nA range of racial and economic justice groups have described the Janus decision, which they expected, as an attack on public workers, particularly those of color.\nFrom Leadership Conference on Human and Civil Rights executive director Seema Nanda:\n\u201cThe aggressively activist decision today by five members of the Supreme Court in Janus is an attack on unions and working families that will further rig our economy and democracy in favor of corporations and billionaires. Today\u2019s decision further threatens the economic security of working people, including women and people of color, by weakening the ability of public sector union members like firefighters, teachers, social workers, and police officers to earn a decent living.\u201d\nWorking Families Party national director Maurice Mitchell said in a statement that unions \u201cbuilt the American middle-class. They brought us the [40]-hour work week and employer-based healthcare. They raised wage floors and ended child labor. For decades, public service unions have been one of the primary points of entry for Black people into the middle class.\u201d\nAnd Alicia Garza, strategy and partnerships director at National Domestic Workers Alliance, said in a statement that Janus was a particular blow to Black women, who at 18 percent make up the largest share of public sector workers. \u201cThis marks a direct attack on Black women getting a fair shot in our economy. We make up nearly one-fifth of public-sector workers, and already face an uphill battle in making strides in every single workplace. At a time when our power is being actively undermined, we must do everything we can to grow our power.\u201d\nFor more information about Janus and \u201cfair share\u201d fees, check out the Economic Policy Institute\u2019s explainer.\nFor one perspective on how the case fits within a greater conservative agenda, read Color of Change executive director Rashad Robinson\u2019s op-ed for Colorlines.\nJanus v.

        "raw_content": "5 Reasons to Get Oral Cancer Screening\nApril is Oral Cancer Awareness Month, which makes it a good time for us to remind you that it\u2019s important to get screened for oral cancer. Here are five good reasons why you should ask for a cancer screening at your next dental checkup.\nSooner Detection Means Better Survival\nThe most important reason to get screening is that it could save your life.\nOral cancer is proving difficult to treat. Although many types of cancer\u2013such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, and colorectal cancer\u2013have seen their survival rates improve, oral cancer survival rates are lagging behind. That\u2019s primarily because those other cancers have seen a dramatic increase in screening. The sooner cancers are detected, the easier they are to treat, often with less invasive treatments, too.\nNewly Diagnosed Cancers Have Few Risk Factors\nBut, you might think, I\u2019m not at risk for oral cancer. While it\u2019s true that many risk factors for oral cancer are well known, such as smoking, heavy drinking, or advanced age, the fastest growing class of people diagnosed with oral cancer actually have none of these common risk factors. So It\u2019s important to get screening, especially when you think you have no risk factors.\nScreening Is Easy and Convenient\nBesides, the thing about oral cancer screening is that it\u2019s easy and convenient compared to screening procedures for other cancers. You don\u2019t have to make a separate appointment. It just takes a couple minutes and you\u2019ll hardly notice.\nGive Yourself (and Others) Peace of Mind\nAdmit it: the thought of oral cancer puts you ill at ease. There\u2019s a nagging doubt in your mind. If you don\u2019t do anything about it, that doubt will continue to grow, continue to disturb you. And what about those that love and depend on you? Don\u2019t you think they are also uneasy at the thought that you might have this cancer growing?\nPut your doubts to rest and find out for sure. You\u2019ll be happier when you do.\nIf You Do It, Others Will, Too\nThe whole point of Oral Cancer Awareness month is to spread awareness about oral cancer. Sure, you can spread awareness by sharing articles about it on social media, but if you really want to make those around you aware of the risk, you\u2019ll get screening done, and encourage others to do it as well.\nThe most powerful form of leadership is leading by example. You can lead others to get oral cancer screening by taking the initiative to do it yourself.\nIf you are looking for a Columbus, OH dentist who can help take care of your oral and overall health, please call (614) 848-5001 for an appointment at the Center for Family & Cosmetic Dentistry.\nBy Dr. Michael Firouzian|April 20th, 2016|Oral Cancer|",

        "title": "Do Space Heaters Save Money? - Consumer Reports",
        "raw_content": "Can you save money by using a space heater?\nConsumer Reports News: November 28, 2011 12:18 PM\nThe National Weather Service predicts the Northwest will have a colder-than-average-winter and the weather could go either way in the Midwest and East, but no matter, it\u2019s still winter. If you heat your home with oil or propane, get ready to pay more. You may be able to save some money by supplementing heat with a space heater in the room you use most and turning down the heat in the rest of the house. But if your electricity rates are especially high, you might want to do the math first.\nThe average household heating costs for oil and propane are projected to be the highest ever, according to the Energy Information Administration, a government agency. It estimates that heating oil will cost 10 percent more than last winter, propane, up nine percent. Natural gas and electricity will be similar to last year\u2019s rates. Costs do differ by region, and in the Northeast, the high heating oil prices mean fewer people are locking in their oil prices with supply contracts, says the EIA.\nIt\u2019s time to get serious about finding ways to lower your heating bills. Adding insulation to attics, basements, crawl spaces, ceilings, and floors can help keep warm air in and cold out. Caulk around the points where electrical and plumbing lines pass through the house, and check out Energy Star for loads of useful tips. Lowering your thermostat 10 to 15 degrees for eight hours can cut your heating bill by five to 15 percent a year.\nIf you\u2019re considering using an electric space heater to save money, you\u2019ll have to lower the heat in other rooms. As the Department of Energy points out, small space heaters can be less expensive to use, in some cases, if you\u2019re only heating one room or supplementing heat in one room. Using space heaters to heat rooms is rarely as efficient as a central heating system, says the Alliance to Save Energy, an advocacy group. And electricity rates vary, with Connecticut and New York having among the highest rates; Washington and Idaho, the lowest. The electric space heaters tested at Consumer Reports use 1,500 watts to fully power. Since you should never use a space heater while sleeping, it would cost $2.82 a day to use a space heater 16 hours a day, based on the national average electricity rate. To figure out how much you\u2019ll spend using one 1,500-watt space heater, use this formula:\n1. Multiply 1500W by X hours of use = A.\n2. Multiply A by your electricity rate per kilowatt hour = B.\n3. Divide B by 1000.",

KAYE ON THE SAFETY STANDARD FOR MAGNET SETS[1]\nThe Commission met today because the United States Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit vacated our magnet set safety standard,[2] and we were obligated to remove it from the Code of Federal Regulations. The Commission, of course, must respect the court\u2019s decision. An independent judiciary is necessary for a healthy democracy.\nHowever, I note the circuit court\u2019s ruling was narrow. The court simply determined that it did not have enough information to ascertain whether two of the Commission\u2019s findings were supported and remanded the matter back to the Commission \u201cfor further proceedings consistent with [its] opinion.\u201d[3] Doctors who treat children have recently publicly noted their concerns with the results from the 10th Circuit decision.[4] It is incumbent upon us as public safety officials to at least attempt to address the court\u2019s concerns without delay.\nThe motion that I introduced today, which the Commission adopted by a 3-2 vote, provides direction to staff to prepare and send to the Commission as soon as possible a draft Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR) for Commission consideration addressing the narrow holding in the 10th Circuit decision. I am pleased that Commissioners Adler and Robinson supported my motion and that we were able to give staff that direction. I thank Commissioners Adler and Robinson for their support and the CPSC staff for their continued safety efforts, and look forward to receiving a draft NPR for Commission consideration.\n[1] This statement and my comments today during the Commission\u2019s meeting were with respect to the Commission\u2019s rulemaking efforts only and not with respect to any specific product, matter or other proceeding.\n[2] Zen Magnets, LLC v.

That can cost a bundle, too.\nWant to go broke slowly? Have a kid.\nChildren are expensive; they need food, diapers, clothes and wipes.\nAnd then when they get older they still need the food and the clothes, but they often want to go to college, too.\nIt's enough to make any parent long for the relatively inexpensive days of a child-free lifestyle.\nAnd the real bad news?\nThe costs of raising children start right away.\nIf neither of the parents can afford to stay home with their children, they'll have to investigate childcare.\nUnfortunately, some parents might find that they can't afford not to stay home with their kids, either.\nIs it Childcare or College Tuition?\nKeeping Mothers out of the Workforce?\nThe Full Infographic\nIn 36 states it costs two-parent households more than 10 percent of their median income to pay for infant childcare.\nAnd it can make parents' household budgets seem awfully tight.\nIn 14 states, two-parent households must again spend more than 10 percent of their household incomes to keep a 4-year-old in a childcare center.\nAre you planning to have children?\nAre you waiting for the birth of an infant?\nOr are you already struggling to raise, and handle the costs of, young children?\nIf so, then you know just how difficult a decision parents face when they have to decide whether it makes more financial sense for them to return to work or stay home with the children.\nThe high cost of childcare, with no relief in sight from the federal government, makes this decision even tougher.\nWhat's often overlooked when it comes to the expenses of childcare is that it matters where you live.\nIn some cases, it matters greatly.\nConsider parents who live in urban areas.\nIt costs them an average of $2,247 more a year to send their infant children to an urban childcare center than it would to send them to the same center in a rural area.\nThe same holds true for the parents of older children.\nIt costs them an average of $1,369 more a year to send their 4-year-olds to urban childcare centers than it does to send them to rural-based centers.\nWorst of all, this is a problem that isn't getting better.\nParents need high-quality childcare.\nBut they don't need to spend a fortune on it.\nAnd as the infographic attached to this story shows, in many states parents are spending gobs of money to send their children to childcare centers.\nIt's hard to say whether the spiraling costs of childcare are keeping mothers from entering the workforce.\nBut some of the nation's employment statistics suggest that, yes, maybe new mothers are opting to stay home with their children because they can't afford quality childcare.\nOnly 57.8 percent of mothers with children under the age of 6 were working full-time in 2009.\nIn 2008, this figure stood at 59.5 percent.\nOf course, there are many reasons why this percentage would fall.\nThe national unemployment rate is dreadfully high, for one thing.\nBut it's hard not to wonder what role rising childcare costs are playing.\nWhat can you, the average parent, do about this?\nIt's clear that Congress is too busy with other matters to figure out a solution to out-of-control childcare costs.\nMaybe it's time, instead, that overburdened parents demand that their legislators get busy trying to craft some way to encourage businesses to provide more childcare options for their employees.\nCommunity action might be the only way to address this growing problem.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb UCC Expert\u2019s Corner: Court Finds Debtor\u2019s Signature Not the Name \u201cIndicated\u201d on Driver\u2019s License\nCourt Finds Debtor\u2019s Signature Not the Name\n\u201cIndicated\u201d on Driver\u2019s License\nPaul Hodnefield | Associate General Counsel for CSC\u00ae\nSince the 2010 Amendments to Article 9 took effect in 2013, those who file UCC records have largely relied on the driver\u2019s license to determine the correct name of an individual debtor for purposes of the financing statement. A driver\u2019s license, however, may contain more than one name for the licensee, a printed name and a signed name. Which is the name indicated for UCC purposes? That was the issue addressed by the court in the recent case of In re Pierce, 2018 Bankr. LEXIS 287 (Bankr. S.D. Ga. Feb. 1, 2018).\nIn 2015, Farm Bureau Bank (the \u201cBank\u201d) made a secured loan to Kenneth Pierce (the \u201cDebtor\u201d), a resident of Georgia, to finance the purchase of a fertilizer spreader for the Debtor\u2019s farm. To perfect its security interest, the Bank filed a financing statement with the appropriate filing office.\nThe Bank\u2019s financing statement provided the individual debtor name of \u201cKenneth Pierce.\u201d The Debtor\u2019s driver\u2019s license, like nearly all such documents issued in the United States, included both the printed name of the licensee and the licensee\u2019s signature. In this case, the driver\u2019s license provided the printed name of \u201cKenneth Ray Pierce.\u201d However, the Debtor\u2019s signature on the license was simply \u201cKenneth Pierce.\u201d\nThe Debtor later filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 12, which provides for the adjustment of the debt of a family farm. The Bank timely filed a proof of claim for the outstanding balance on its loan to the Debtor and attached a copy of its financing statement.\nA few months later, the Debtor filed an objection to the Bank\u2019s proof of claim. The Debtor alleged that the Bank\u2019s financing statement failed to sufficiently provide the name of the debtor and, as a result, the Bank\u2019s security interest was unperfected and its claim unsecured. The bankruptcy court, therefore, had to resolve the issue.\nThe court began its analysis by reviewing the Article 9 debtor name rules. Georgia adopted the 2010 Amendments with Legislative Alternative A, which provides that if the debtor is an individual, the financing statement is sufficient only if it provides the name of the individual which is indicated on the driver\u2019s license. In contrast, Legislative Alternative B, which was adopted by only a few states, provides a safe harbor that could allow multiple name variations of an individual to be sufficient for purposes of the financing statement.\nIn this case, the name on the financing statement did not match the name printed on the driver\u2019s license. The Debtor therefore argued that the financing statement did not provide the name of the debtor. The Bank, however, pointed out that there were actually two names indicated on the driver\u2019s license, the printed name and the Debtor\u2019s signed name. The Bank asserted that either name was sufficient for purposes of Article 9 as enacted in Georgia.\nTo resolve the issue, the court had to determine whether the phrase \u201cindicated on the driver\u2019s license\u201d referred only to the printed name or whether it also included the name set forth in the Debtor\u2019s signature.\nThe court cited In re Borden (citation omitted), a case decided before the 2010 Amendments to Article 9 took effect, that found a financing statement filed under the nickname, \u201cMike\u201d was seriously misleading where various legal documents contained the printed name \u201cMichael,\u201d even though the debtor often signed his name as \u201cMike.\u201d The court interpreted this case to mean that the name typed on legal documents trumps the name signed by the debtor.\nThe applicable law changed after the Borden case was decided. Georgia enacted the 2010 Amendments, which took effect in 2013, with the Alternative A \u201cOnly If\u201d rule for individual debtor names. The court determined that the choice of Alternative A indicated that the legislature preferred greater certainly over the less precise Alternative B safe harbor rule. According to the court, allowing two equally sufficient ways of identifying the debtor, both the printed name and the signed name, would thwart the legislature\u2019s intent. The court concluded that the precedence given the printed name in Borden and the preference for precision as expressed by the legislature\u2019s enactment of Alternative A limited the meaning of \u201cindicated on the driver\u2019s license\u201d to the printed name.\nThe court found further support for its conclusion in the instructions on the UCC1 Financing Statement form. The form instructs the filer to \u201cuse exact, full name, do not modify or abbreviate any part of the Debtor\u2019s name.\u201d The court noted that had the Bank followed the form instruction, it would have provided the full name.\nHaving found that the name provided on the Bank\u2019s financing statement was not sufficient under the Article 9 debtor name rules, the court next turned to application of what it referred to as the \u201csafe harbor provision\u201d of Georgia\u2019s version of UCC \u00a7 9-506(c). Under \u00a7 9-506(c), if a search of the filing office records under the debtor\u2019s correct name, using the filing office\u2019s standard search logic, if any, would disclose a financing statement that provides an insufficient debtor name, the name provided does not make the financing statement seriously misleading.\nIn this case, the Bank produced a search that reflected its financing statement. However, that search was conducted only under the name of \u201cKenneth Pierce.\u201d The Debtor\u2019s search under \u201cKenneth Ray Pierce\u201d failed to disclose the Bank\u2019s financing statement. Because the Bank\u2019s search was not conducted under the full name of the Debtor, the court ruled that the Bank failed to carry its burden and sustained the Debtor\u2019s objection to the Bank\u2019s proof of claim.\nThe important thing to take away from this case is that if the debtor is an individual, then the printed name on the driver\u2019s license, not the signature, is the correct name of the debtor for purposes of the financing statement. It is the printed name that is \u201cindicated on the driver\u2019s license.\u201d Although it should not be necessary, if a filer is concerned because the printed and signed names differ, then there is no harm in filing both variations as separate debtors.\nCSCTW February 13, 2018 February 13, 2018 UCC Updates and Perspectives, UCCXpress\n\u2190 Alabama \u2013 Due Date Changes for Business Privilege Tax Returns\nMichigan \u2013 Filing Deadline for LLC\u2019s and PLLC\u2019s Extended to March 1 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Human rights groups welcomed the sentence for Liberia's former president Charles Taylor for his role in Sierra Leone civil war. Some Liberians argued he didn't get fair treatment.\nFormer Liberian President Charles Taylor waits for the start of his sentencing judgement in the courtroom of the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) in Leidschendam, near The Hague, Netherlands, Wednesday, May 30.\nFormer Liberian President Charles Taylor listened today with his eyes closed as he heard the Special Court for Sierra Leone in The Hague, Netherlands, sentence him to prison for 50 years. Mr. Taylor had been convicted by the Special Court last month for crimes against humanity, and for aiding and abetting Sierra Leone's Revolutionary United Front in that country's 1991-2001 civil war.\nHuman rights groups such as Amnesty International and Global Witness welcomed the sentence as justice for the victims of that war. But here in Liberia's capital of Monrovia, the sentencing attracted little attention. In contrast to last month's verdict, the sentencing was not broadcast live over BBC radio, and only a few men were discussing the issue at tea shops downtown, where men meet to discuss politics.\nChris Lender, a petty trader on Ashmun Street expresses feelings of sadness when he found out that Taylor had been sentenced for 50 years and would in all likelihood spend the rest of his natural life in a British prison.\n\u201cHe hasn\u2019t been treated fairly,\" Mr. Lender says. \"He won\u2019t be able to see his children and his family before he dies. I want to see him back in Liberia.\u201d\nIt's hard to know whether Lender's view of Taylor is the norm here in Liberia, a country that went through two brutal civil wars in the early 1990s and the early 2000s. Taylor led a small rebel group that ended up taking control over much of the country, before being elected president in the 1997 elections that followed that first civil war. Few Liberians emerged from these wars untouched, either by their brutality or by the ongoing political loyalties that developed, a fact that makes any future prosecution for Liberian war crimes difficult.\nIn Pictures War Criminals on Trial\nEven current President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, who won this year's Nobel Peace Prize for her work to advance the rights of Liberian women, has been unwilling to broach the possibility of establishing a war crimes court. Some of the members of her own government have been accused of war crimes. In 2009, Ms. Sirleaf herself was barred from running for office, by a Truth and Reconciliation Commission, because of her support for Taylor in the early years of the civil war.\nGlobal Witness, a human rights group, said that the sentencing of Taylor provided the victims of Sierra Leone's civil war with a sense of justice.\n\u201cToday\u2019s sentence not only reflects the severity of Taylor\u2019s crimes but sends a clear message that individuals who aid and abet war crimes can no longer act with impunity,\u201d said Patrick Alley, founder and director of Global Witness, in a statement.\nSome in Monrovia have met the sentencing of Taylor with disbelief.\nBen Slewion, a taxi driver, says the verdict was not fair and the sentencing was too harsh. Echoing Taylor\u2019s final statements to the court Slewion says: \u201cThose who testified were paid.\u2026 He didn\u2019t commit the crime,\u201d he said. \u201cIt should be 20-30 years so he can come back to Liberia and we can have an ex-president with us.\u201d\nNot all Liberians were saddened by the 50-year sentence, however. Peterson Sonya, the head of the Liberian Massacre Survivors Association (LIMASA) says Taylor got the sentence he deserved.\n\u201cHe should accept it \u2013 he could have been given more than that,\u201d says Mr. Sonyah. \u201cAll that we have gone through is a result of Taylor.\u201d\nBut Sonyah says that he hopes the guilty verdict and the sentence will encourage Liberia to try to prosecute those responsible for human rights violations and war crimes that were perpetrated in Liberia itself. During the civil wars, more than 250,000 people were killed, countless others were maimed, and the nation\u2019s infrastructure was shattered.\n\u201cThis is a message to all of those who were involved in our war that they won\u2019t go scot-free,\u201d Mr. Sonyah says.\nAfter the verdict, international human rights groups such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International called on Liberia to follow the\nlead of Sierra Leone and prosecute key figures responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity.\nIn recent weeks, major daily newspapers in Liberia have been running editorials criticizing the \"culture of impunity\" in Liberia, reigniting the debate as to whether there should be a war crimes court in the country.\nLast week, controversy arose when a commissioner from the nation\u2019s Independent National Human Rights Commission (INHRC) was quoted by\nmedia outlets as saying that the body would be forwarding names to the International Criminal Court to be considered for prosecution.\nLeroy Urey, the chairman of the commission, said the statement did not reflect the view of the body. Commissioner Thomas Bureh, the man quoted in the article, has stepped away from the comment and said that reconciliation should be Liberia\u2019s primary focus.\nAccording to a report by Front Page Africa, Mr. Urey accused Mr. Bureh of receiving bribes to make the statement: \"I think Bureh has been tampered with by people in the erstwhile TRC and the international community, especially UNMIL,\" said Mr. Urey, according to a report in Front Page Africa. \"He has received bribes to go on the air in my absence and say what he said to the press. This attitude of Bureh has caused the commission complete embarrassment.\"",

        "raw_content": "Brazil cleans house: now what?\nBrazil's President Rousseff has had a good year in cracking down on corruption. Will the momentum last?\nEraldo Peres/AP/File\nIn this Aug. photo, Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff delivers a speech in Brasilia, Brazil.\nIt's been a good year for Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff, exceeding the expectations of voters and even wowing some skeptics. With a record approval rating of over 70 percent, she exceeded Lula's approval rating after the first year of his presidency by more than 20 points. While there are a number of factors for her popularity, including a strong economy with low unemployment, and proving herself as an independent leader out of Lula's shadow, another important factor has been her crackdown on corruption.\nDuring her first year in office, Dilma sacked six ministers after they came under fire for corruption charges. In the federal government as a whole, 564 public officials were fired for wrongdoing in 2011, though this number is not exactly new: in the past 8 years, over half of the 3,533 public officials who were fired from the federal government lost their jobs because of corruption. Comedy blog Kibe Loco produced a series of videos parodying Dilma's crackdown on corrupt ministers, where an actor dressed in drag would imitate phone calls to her ministers, in which she would yell, using all sorts of profane language, making the ministers cry, and then soothing them like a mother. Dilma's intolerance for corruption was welcomed by many Brazilians, particularly during a year where thousands took to the streets to protest corruption. Popular support to fight corruption also came after the Clean Record Law (Ficha Limpa law) was passed in 2010 after 2 million Brazilians signed petitions in favor of the law, which aimed to bar candidates accused of misdoing from taking office.\nBut the question is - what now?\nThe Supreme Court ruled that the Ficha Limpa law would not count towards the 2010 election, and after ruling on several individual cases, the court allowed at least 6 \"ficha suja\" congressmen and senators to take office, including notorious Senator Jader Barbalho, who took office in late December. (His son came with him, and proceeded to stick out his tongue and make faces for the press, which antagonized the already dismayed Brazilians opposed to his inauguration). It's unclear if the law will be applied to the 2012 municipal elections.\nDilma has made it clear that she won't tolerate corruption in her cabinet, and a minister shakeup in the next few weeks should likely bring in new ministers picked by Dilma, rather than carryovers from Lula's administration. But of the six who left office in disgrace, how many are under investigation and will actually be punished? Cases of ministers returning embezzled funds are few and far between; one of the few is that of former Tourism Minister Pedro Novais, who returned the government funds (worth R$2,156) that he used to pay for a sex motel.\nFormer Sports Minister Orlando Silva is allegedly planning on running for city councilman in S\u00e3o Paulo in 2012. He wouldn't be the first disgraced politician to come back to life; former President Fernando Collor de Mello, who was impeached in 1992, was elected to the Senate in 2006 and 2010. Notorious politician Jos\u00e9 Sarney, who also served as president, was first elected to the Senate in 1995, and has served three terms as president of the Senate, a position he currently holds. Another notorious politician, Paulo Maluf, who was on Interpol's \"red\" list, is currently serving his third term as a federal congressman.\nAfter Dilma's sweep, some are hopeful that it could mean change in Bras\u00edlia. But without holding wrongdoers responsible and punishing them for their crimes, will corrupt public officials simply try harder to hide what they're doing? And if the Ficha Limpa Law isn't implemented, or if the Supreme Court eventually rules it unconstitutional, will corrupt politicians continue to return to office? Worse yet - will everything acabar em pizza?\n---Rachel Glickhouse is the author of the blog Riogringa.com.",

        "raw_content": "Fish-loving Japan begins to embrace sustainable seafood\nIn fish-crazed Japan, where eating seafood is a vital part of the nation's culture, conservation groups are working with companies to persuade more Japanese to eat certified, sustainably caught seafood. If they succeed, it could have a significant positive impact on the world's fisheries.\nKim Kyung-Hoon/Reuters/File\nA chef holds the head of a bluefin tuna after cutting its meat at a sushi restaurant in Tokyo in January. The 593 lb. tuna caught off the coast of northern Japan was sold at a record $736,234. Environmental groups are making headway in trying to persuade Japanese to eat more sustainable fish species.\nBy Winifred Bird Yale Environment 360\nFor the past nine years, seafood industry executives and marine conservationists have met in a European or North American city to talk about sustainability at the annual Seafood Summit.\nThis year, they\u2019ll meet in Hong Kong. It\u2019s a sign that market-based efforts to make fishing and aquaculture more environmentally friendly are spreading from Europe and the US, where eco-labeling schemes like the Marine Stewardship Council\u2019s (MSC) were first launched, to Asia, where most of the world\u2019s fishermen, fish farmers, and seafood consumers live.\nSo far in Asia, wealthy, seafood-loving Japan is leading the way. Yes, Japanese fishing boats still hunt whales under the guise of scientific research. Fishermen continue to kill dolphins in Taiji\u2019s now-infamous coves, and Tokyo sushi lovers still feast on endangered Atlantic bluefin tuna. But at the same time, consumers and corporations here are becoming some of the first in Asia to put their buying power to work for the cause of sustainable seafood.\nIN PICTURES: Controversial foods\nSigns of the nascent revolution could be found on a recent afternoon in the sprawling fish display of a chain grocery store in Nagano Prefecture, three hours from Tokyo. There, nearly hidden among the piles of attractively packaged seafood and the red flags blaring \u201cThe more you buy, the cheaper it seems!,\u201d sat several dozen Styrofoam trays of salmon and trout roe, salted mackerel, and salmon steaks bearing the MSC logo, signifying that the fish had been sustainably caught.\nGallery Controversial foods\nFumiko Yamaguchi, 81, who purchases fish at the store every day, said she\u2019d never noticed the small blue-and-white label. She is worried about the state of the world\u2019s oceans, however. \u201cPrograms about overfishing are on TV all the time lately \u2014 if we harvest too many fish there won\u2019t be any left,\u201d she said, adding that fishermen and government regulators, not consumers, must fix the problem.\nThe Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimates that more than 80 percent of the world\u2019s fish stocks are fully exploited, overexploited, or recovering. Like Yamaguchi, many Japanese are aware of those dismal figures. Yet eating seafood is a central part of national food culture \u2014 so much so, says Greenpeace Japan\u2019s oceans campaign manager Wakao Hanaoka, that \u201csome people think they have a right to eat it, and they don\u2019t want outsiders telling them not to.\u201d That, along with other cultural and institutional factors, means the notion of sustainable seafood still faces an uphill fight in Japan.\nIf more Japanese consumers embrace seafood sustainability, they could have a significant impact on ocean ecosystems. The Japanese eat 6 percent of the world\u2019s fish harvest, 81 percent of its fresh tuna, and a significant chunk of all salmon, shrimp, and crab. Japan also imports more seafood than any other country and caught 4.2 million metric tons of fish in 2008.\n\u201cJapan is an incredibly powerful player in fisheries and as a market,\u201d says Adam Baske, an international policy officer at the Washington, D.C.-based Pew Environment Group. Japan demonstrated its dominance at the 2010 meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, where Japanese officials allegedly pressured representatives from Asia, Africa, and other regions to join them in voting down a proposed ban on international trade in Atlantic bluefin tuna. Turning that power toward conservation, Baske says, represents \u201can incredible opportunity.\u201d\nQuite a few international environmental organizations seem to have had the same idea recently. In the past six years WWF, Greenpeace, and the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership have all launched seafood campaigns in Japan. Greenpeace has published a Japanese-language guide to threatened seafood, and WWF plans to release 50,000 copies of its own guide later this summer.\nMSC, the world\u2019s leading wild-caught seafood standard setter, is also making inroads in Japan. Although total market share for MSC-labeled products remains below 1 percent, nearly 30 food retailers \u2014 including four of the top 10 \u2014 carry about 250 different products from various fisheries certified as sustainable. One in six consumers recognizes the label, and three fisheries \u2014 for skipjack tuna, flounder, and snow crab \u2014 have won certification. MSC\u2019s Tokyo office, opened in 2007, remains the organization\u2019s sole Asian outpost.\nWhile persuading consumers in seafood-centered Japan to purchase sustainably caught fish is a particular challenge, the fact remains that influencing the public\u2019s seafood-buying choices remains a daunting challenge worldwide. The MSC has certified 168 fisheries \u2014 ranging from Alaskan salmon to Argentine anchovies \u2014 as sustainable, representing about 8 percent of the world\u2019s annual harvest of wild fish. The organization is now assessing another 116 fisheries. Consumers in Europe are increasingly attuned to whether the seafood they\u2019re purchasing is sustainable. But numerous analysts believe the most important progress is being made on the corporate front, where international giants such as Unilever, Wal-Mart, and McDonalds are buying larger quantities of certified seafood.\nIn Japan, a domestic fishing-industry organization launched its own seafood standard in 2007, called Marine Eco-Label Japan (MEL Japan). MEL Japan secretariat staff member Masashi Nishimura says the scheme, which has certified 13 fisheries and 45 processors and distributors to date, was a proactive response to international trends. \u201cWhen it comes to managing Japan\u2019s fisheries, Japanese actors have been doing it longer than anyone else,\u201d says Nishimura. \u201cThere was a need for a Japanese-run scheme.\u201d MEL Japan encourages traditional systems of voluntary, fishermen-led resource allotment called \u201cco-management.\u201d\nBut critics say co-management has done little to prevent the decline of coastal fish stocks, 40 percent of which are rated in poor condition by Japan\u2019s Fisheries Research Agency. They also point out that MEL Japan, whose secretariat is run by an industry association and whose certifier is a nonprofit organization that includes fisheries industry representatives on its board, is hardly in a position to impartially evaluate those fisheries. (MSC, too, has been widely accused of certifying fisheries that are not sustainable.) Nevertheless, MEL Japan is a sign that some fishermen think eco-labels will help them sell fish because customers are starting to care about sustainability.\nAs is the case globally, Japanese corporations, rather than consumers, have provided most of the momentum so far. Aeon, Japan\u2019s largest supermarket chain, began enthusiastically promoting MSC-certified seafood in 2006, but spokeswoman Miho Takahama says the company was not motivated by consumer demand. \u201cBack in 2006, customers were like, \u2018What\u2019s MSC?\u2019\" she says. \u201cWe wanted to proactively introduce sustainably harvested fish as a way to protect marine resources and secure a steady, long-term supply of fish. To do that, we had to raise customer awareness about MSC.\u201d\nGreenpeace\u2019s Hanaoka, who recently began negotiations with Japan\u2019s top five supermarket chains to sell less of certain threatened species like eel and tuna, suggests retailers may have more near-sighted motivations as well. \u201cThe food retail market is quite saturated and competitive,\u201d he said. \u201cBrand image is very important.\u201d And corporate-centered strategies for reforming the seafood industry may be particularly critical in Japan, where environmental groups have little lobbying power and are not often able to force regulatory change. In contrast, the fishing industry enjoys strong links to regulatory agencies.\n\u201cAfter World War II, Japan promoted its fishing industry because there was a lack of protein,\u201d explains Toshio Katsukawa, an associate professor of fishery management at Mie University. \u201cCatching as many fish as possible was the policy objective. It worked.\u201d He says that while the industry has declined since its peak in the 1960s and 70s, policy still focuses on supporting rather than aggressively regulating fisheries. Retired bureaucrats regularly cycle into top posts at fishing industry organizations, and politicians compete for fishermen\u2019s votes.\nKatsukawa says most consumers don\u2019t have the information they need to challenge overly cheery government narratives about fisheries. \u201cIt\u2019s a problem of education,\" he says. \"People are taught that eating many fish is a good thing because it supports Japanese culture.\u201d\nEnvironmental organizations do offer alternative information, but they are smaller, weaker, and poorer than their counterparts in the US and Europe. When environmental groups bring up fish, they face an additional challenge: anger over controversial campaigns by Sea Shepherd, Greenpeace, and others to end whaling and dolphin hunting.\nBut Aiko Yamauchi, WWF Japan\u2019s fishery and seafood project leader, sees sustainable seafood as a positive way to approach the issue. \u201cWe\u2019re trying to improve troubled fisheries, not just tell people to avoid eating fish,\u201d she says. \u201cThe global movement is not opposed to Japanese culture.\u201d\nThat approach is slowly starting to work. Ultimately, however, trends that have nothing to do with sustainability may dwarf the progress WWF and other organizations have made in Japan. Fish consumption is falling as people buy more meat and convenience foods, and annual fish harvests have fallen by more than half since 1985 as both fishing communities and fish stocks decline.\nMeanwhile, aquaculture production, fish processing, and seafood consumption are all booming in neighboring China, which now consumes about one third of the world\u2019s fish. MSC plans to open an office there and another in Singapore in the near future. Whether lessons from Japan prove useful remains to be seen.\n\u2022 Winifred Bird is a freelance journalist living in Japan.

        "raw_content": "The Most Common Website Problems That Affect Businesses\nYour company\u2019s website is it\u2019s most important online sales asset, period. If you expect to create any sort of value for your company through your website, you need to make sure it\u2019s armed for the task.\nBounce Rate is the indicator that shows you how many people are leaving your website after seeing a single page. When your bounce rate is high, it means visitors aren\u2019t liking what they are seeing or aren\u2019t finding what they\u2019re looking for in your website, even though your company might actually provide what they need. If your visitors are bouncing, your website may have problems related to one or more of these categories:\nIn this blog, we want to take an in-depth look into the most common website issues affecting businesses all around the globe:\nClean, responsive, and visually-appealing design is indispensable for a corporate website. Your visitors need to like what they see first and foremost before you can start expecting them to provide you with their information. Design problems can range from unappealing or outdated visual design to issues with the website\u2019s internal structure. Poor design can result in slow loading time, confusing navigation, and altogether failing to capture leads or even keep visitors interested in staying. A slow-loading website is the most likely source of a high bounce rate; nobody likes to wait too long to see the information they\u2019re looking for. Some of the most common website design problems out there are:\nPoor or Outdated Website Design: Most of us remember what websites looked like in the early days of the Internet; they went from dull and square to overwhelmingly cluttered with flashing gifs and annoying backgrounds. Unfortunately, it\u2019s still common to find business websites that have not been updated since the mid-2000s as well as websites that have been built without any sort of design elements taken into account. A company\u2019s corporate website is their online business card; as such, it needs a modern and visually-appealing look and feel, free of clutter and sensibly decorated with high-quality images and graphics.\nDo-It-Yourself Free Builders: Using a free website builder that lets you drag and drop items and use nice stock photos may seem like a quick way to solve your website needs on a budget, but, as with most free things, there is a hidden cost. These free services may be easy to use, but each design facet added will create a large amount of back-end code lines that will pile up and generate many performance issues. Websites created with free builders tend to load slower as they grow and content is added, and many small design errors will begin to accumulate that you won\u2019t be able to correct without access to or knowledge about back-end coding.\nNo Mobile-Responsive Design: More than half of all global online browsing takes place on mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. It\u2019s pretty simple: if your website isn\u2019t responsive to mobile devices, you\u2019re missing out on more than half of your potential market. This is an absolute must when it comes to website design.\nPoor or Complicated Navigation: You want your visitors to read the information they are looking for, so you need to make it easy to find. Intelligent website design will lead a visitor straight to what they are looking for and then makes it easy for them to contact you once they are interested in your product or service. If your menus aren\u2019t easy to use or your contact points are hidden, you\u2019ll end up with a lot of frustrated visitors. User experience makes all the difference.\nA visually-appealing website will keep your visitors interested for only a short period of time if your content isn\u2019t up to standards. We like to say that \u201cContent is King\u201d because content is the answer to your public\u2019s questions. Content is your online sales pitch; you don\u2019t have a face-to-face interaction with your visitors, so whatever they read on your website has to convince them to take the next step. Content also needs to fulfill certain standards so that search engines can find it. As important as content is, it\u2019s probably the area where many business websites are weakest. Some common content issues are:\nInsufficient or Confusing Information: If you don\u2019t have enough content on your website, it will be ignored by search engines. If you have too much information, then you\u2019ll confuse or overwhelm your visitors. Your content needs to be balanced and concise, but it also needs to be informative, interesting, and easy-to-read. Writing quality content is not an easy task, which is why many people build careers around this. Make sure your website\u2019s content is created by people who know what they are doing. Even if you have good writing skills and feel you can create your own content, website content for businesses needs to fulfill with certain standards and integrate with the overall design of the site. At the very least, consulting with a content expert can go a long way.\nPlagiarized Content: If any amount of content on your website is plagiarized, search engines may flag and reject it. Every business\u2019 website should have original content created exclusively for them. It\u2019s common to find sites with content that was intentionally or inadvertently plagiarized. There are many online tools (eg. Grammarly or SmallSeoTools) that can help you determine if you have plagiarized content, which needs to be urgently corrected for your website to get organic visits.\nNot Updating Content Periodically: In order to keep your website relevant, new content needs to be added in the form of articles, blogs, whitepapers, news, or video material. The more interesting and informative content you generate on your website, the higher it will rank on search engines and the more likely it is you\u2019ll get quality visitors. Your website\u2019s main content can hold up for a more extended period of time, but it will eventually need to be revised and updated as well.\nNot Catering to the Audience: It\u2019s easy to end up with poor content. Even if you hire professionals, your business may need a specific type of knowledge from a writer to communicate with your target audience effectively. For example, if you\u2019re the CEO of a company that produces industrial chemicals, it\u2019s likely that your potential customers are also knowledgable on the subject. Your content needs to prove to them that your business knows what it\u2019s talking about. Whoever writes your content needs to understand the audience that will be reading it and needs to either have a sufficient level of technical knowledge on the subject or be an expert researcher. Defining buyer personas is an essential step in understanding your business\u2019 audience and how to communicate with them effectively.\nSo, your website\u2019s look and feel are modern and intuitive, and you regularly add relevant content, but you\u2019re still not getting enough organic visits. You may have missed out on a critical step: SEO.\nSEO used to be seen as an afterthought, but nowadays optimization is considered a minimum requirement for search engines to give your website any sort of attention. SEO needs to be taken into consideration from the very first steps of content design. Keywords need to be researched, strategized, and implemented with a tactical approach. Overall, SEO is not an overly complicated process, but you need to know what you\u2019re doing to get it right. Common SEO issues are:\nNot Using a Keyword Strategy: Keywords are how online users find websites on search engines. If your content is missing the keywords that your audience is looking for, then you have little to no hope of attracting them. Good keyword research and planning are the main ingredients of a successful optimization. Finding out what your audience is talking about and hitting the right keywords are the first steps in climbing search engine rankings. The more in-tune your content is with a well-planned keyword strategy, the higher your website will rank.\nHeaders, Meta titles, and Meta descriptions: These elements are what show up on search engines when your website is displayed. If this information is missing or incorrect, then potential visitors will not be inclined to click on the displayed link. Meta-descriptions can be especially tricky; they need to be over 120 and under 156 characters and need to grab the audience\u2019s attention enough to make them click. They also need to incorporate the right keywords seamlessly to rank higher.\nNo Metrics or Conversion Tracking: Without KPI\u2019s and conversion metrics in place, you\u2019ll have a hard time finding out where your website is falling short. Metrics will let you track the effectiveness of your optimization tactics and keywords, and will help you adjust your efforts accordingly to improve results.\nUsing Only Broad Keywords: Broad keywords will help you somewhat, but long-tail specific keyword phrases are the most effective at capturing good organic leads. Long-tail keyword phrases need to supported by relevant content as well; there\u2019s no point in using a specific phrase like \u201cThe Most Common Website Problems That Affect Business\u201d if you don\u2019t actually provide that information. Specific keywords are more effective towards getting those organic clicks, but the content is where you make your sale\u2019s pitch.\nLead capturing is the science of funneling a lead through your website content a towards them giving you their information to start the sales process. There both front-end and back-end characteristics of lead capturing optimization. A well-designed information flow, strong Calls to Action (CTAs), and comprehensive contact forms are all part of the front-end aspect of lead-capturing. Behind the curtains, the lead funnel needs to be able to notify your sales team and get them to act quickly. Some of the most common website problems relating to the lead capturing process are:\nMissing or Hidden Contact Forms: It\u2019s surprising how many business websites out there make it difficult for users to contact them. If your website\u2019s purpose is to bring in leads and create sales opportunities, you need to make sure that getting in touch with you is a simple process. Contact forms need to be easy to find and easy to fill out; they need to request enough information without making it a tiresome task for the user. Drop-down menus and multiple-choice options are preferable to blank spaces for writing; they also make it easier to classify your leads internally.\nSlow Notification Process: Once a lead fills out a contact form, your sales team needs to know about it as quickly as possible. A user will lose interest if they aren\u2019t contacted within the first 24 hours, at the very least. Optimally, a company\u2019s website is integrated with their CRM so that lead notifications go straight towards the sales queue. If CRM integration is not possible, then the lead notification has to be programmed to reach an email inbox that is regularly monitored.\nIf you are experiencing any of the most common website issues that affect business, you may need some expert advice.

These are people that are shaping our world, and on Episode 199 today, I am speaking with two truly amazing women who fit into all of those categories, and we\u2019re going to talk about technology, we\u2019ll talk about the world of the CIO, and what\u2019s coming down the line. And in no particular order, Adriana Karaboutis, who is guest number one. Hi Andi, how are you?\nAndi Karaboutis: Hi I\u2019m well, Michael, how are you?\nMichael Krigsman: I\u2019m great! Please, briefly introduce yourself.\nAndi Karaboutis: Certainly. So, I am Andi Karaboutis, Executive Vice President for Technology, Business Solutions, and Corporate Affairs at Biogen, here in Cambridge Massachusetts. Biogen is a leading and one of the oldest biotechnology companies around, and we specialize in therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, spinal muscular atrophy, and we\u2019ve got a great foray into alzheimer's and some great products in our pipeline.\nMichael Krigsman: Fantastic! And we\u2019ll dive into your role and what you do in just a minute. And guest #2 is Kim Stevenson from Intel. And Kim, welcome again. You and Andi have both been guests at CXOTalk in the past. Again, welcome!\nKim Stevenson: Thanks, Michael. So as Michael said I\u2019m Kim Stevenson and I am COO for Intel\u2019s Client, Internet of Things, and Systems Architecture Group. That is a mouthful, of course we\u2019ve made an acronym. And, I took this job about two months ago, I keep saying last month, but it\u2019s the end of October. I don\u2019t think I need to explain too much about what Intel does, but we\u2019ve got a lot of new forays outside of our core business in exciting areas with artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, drones, and all of the 5G expiration and activities going that will enable services to run at that layer. So, it\u2019s good. It\u2019s exciting.\nMichael Krigsman: So, let\u2019s begin with\u2026 You\u2019re both former CIOs, and maybe a good place to start is can you share with us how you move from the CIO to the business roles that you\u2019re now in?\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, I think I would start with, Michael, once a CIO, always a CIO. So, maybe not \u201cformer\u201d! [laughter] So, it\u2019s interesting to me that, as I move into the COO role, how much of the knowledge that you gain through IT\u2026 because as an IT organization, you\u2019re horizontal in the company, so you see how every process in the company executes. And with that execution you gain deep insight into the business processes and the things that you have opportunity to drive greater improvement. So, this is a new role in Intel, and frankly, I was instrumental in crafting it, because what we did was we outlined the major strategic challenges going forward for the next five years or so, and how did we want to attack them; and then through that, came the need for this particular leadership role. And, I think everybody in IT understands that if you\u2019re trying to drive any form of transformation across the company, the IT knowledge, the business process knowledge, just marrying the two together to drive the right outcome is key.\nAndi Karaboutis: Yeah I would...so Michael, I would agree exactly with what Kim says, is that the CIO role sort of evolved, and you\u2019re working across the enterprise. The recognition that it goes beyond just digitizing processes and capabilities for the company is kind of what happened to me as well, and we started, when I joined Biogen two years ago, they had developed a vision for\u2026 they wanted core capabilities, which is the traditional IT, we also wanted digital data sciences and business solutions which is part of the title, that would help us actually foray and help disrupt the life sciences and healthcare industry, because there\u2019s such an opportunity for patients, payers, and providers to come together for the greater good of patients. And so, the role evolved into something that was beyond the CIO. I have the whole IT organization reporting in to me. I have digital and data sciences, and obviously corporate affairs, which is a little bit separate. It has communications, patient advocacy, etc. as a part of it. But the recognition when Biogen approached when I was the CIO of Dell, was that we want to do something more, and be something more and be in this space than was traditionally IT. I think you\u2019re seeing that evolution everywhere. So I think Kim and I will both take a bit of credit of growing beyond the role, because I think we both worked very hard, if I could say that; we go back a ways. But I think it\u2019s also the industry has evolved, and enabled this. In recognition that technology is ubiquitous, a lot of the disruptive technology that Kim just referenced is opening doors. And I truly believe all companies, to a greater or lesser extent, are digital and technology companies now.\nKim Stevenson: And Michael, it might be worth noting that both Andi and I serve on corporate boards to publicly held companies. And what you see in the management ranks, in terms of the importance of technology, is the core strategic element that technology brings to the execution of the business plan, is also a board-level discussion. So, you see that happening across industries also.\nAndi Karaboutis: Yeah, that\u2019s a great point.\nMichael Krigsman: One of the things that I\u2019m really wondering about is how did you make that transition from being a CIO to being clearly a business person serving on the boards? And it\u2019s funny that as I say this, the Kim Stevenson of my conscience is saying, \u201cWell all that IT is just another business function, that they\u2019re not separate,\u201d as Kim has said in the past. But, how did you, and how can a CIO make that leap, which for many CIOs is a tough one?\nAndi Karaboutis: So, I think what\u2019s important, we\u2019ve always talked about \u201cseat at the table\u201d and \u201cearning seat at the table\u201d and things like that, I mean, for many years. And \u201cseat at the table\u201d is really code for understanding the business, the objectives, the mission, the enablers, etc., and how do you apply technology to enable that, or even to modify it and streamline and make it even more impactful. So that continues to be the case. You do have to be an ardent business person. You also need to understand, strongly, the financials of the company and financials in general, and understand how public companies work, if you\u2019re on the board of a public company or part of one, and also nonprofits if you\u2019re there as well. The bottom line is, you know, while we have a mission at Biogen, which is: care deeply, change lives, provide therapeutics, we have stakeholders. And those stakeholders include our shareholders, our employees, you know, our patients, our providers, payers, etc., and being part that ecosystem, means you have to be part of that ecosystem, and really understand and embrace it. And when technology is as important as it is, having all of that and pulling that together is mandatory, and that\u2019s what the ardent businessperson needs to be with what I call a technology backbone.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, and Michael, I would say, if people think of it like a leap, then you probably won\u2019t make it across the chasm. Through your years of IT, what you\u2019re doing is you\u2019re building a track record of understanding the business, [and] delivering business value projects. And you move from a service provider \u2500 someone who executes the projects and programs that a division or a line of business executive might ask you to do, to someone who\u2019s sitting there collaborating with the business that helps them to really think more broadly about how they could execute, what\u2019s possible with technology, in terms of are they trying to grab share, create new products, whatever the business outcome might be. [And then eventually become], someone who actually sits at the table as a decision maker and what\u2019s the right strategic move, what\u2019s right right next move; not what\u2019s the next technology move, but what\u2019s the right next move for the company. So, it\u2019s your career experience that builds up, that gives you that track record, so then when you step into the next role, it\u2019s logical. It feels normal. It feels like the next extension just as if you moved from an applications development leader to, you know, a functional leader over multiple functions in IT. That seems natural after you\u2019ve done those things. So I think it is more about this career-building and track record of experience that allows others to see the potential that you could bring in a different capacity.\nMichael Krigsman: So, Andi Karaboutis, Kim was just saying that, essentially, before making that leap, or that leap, in a sense, is a recognition of what you\u2019ve been doing all already, but Andi, doesn\u2019t it also require the right type of environment inside the organization or more broadly, to accept a CIO making that leap, no matter how good he or she might be?\nAndi Karaboutis: Absolutely. So, and some companies come to it by what comes first. A CIO that shows that it\u2019s more than just digitizing processes. You can do more. How can you contribute to the top line and bottom line of, you know, a company\u2019s balance sheet objectives, and so on and so forth. But, sometimes a company comes to it by seeing the disruption that\u2019s out there and what\u2019s happening, [and] goes and looks for, which was the case in my case, looks for a CIO that\u2019s shown sort of progressive improvements, and really taking a company along. So there\u2019s a chicken and an egg, and I think it\u2019s a bit of both. You have to have a company that\u2019s mature, that recognizes just what technology can do, and you know, you have to have candidates that are ready, willing, and able, and can do it. I feel very lucky, to be honest with you, because I crossed three industries. So I did twenty years in the auto industry, I spent four and a half wonderful years at Dell, it\u2019s a fantastic company, and I\u2019m now at Biogen and again, another fantastic company. But the common thread that\u2019s followed me is making sure that I\u2019m at least as current and on my game as possible on technology, as I\u2019ve absolutely had to take on the challenge of learning those very different businesses so I could succeed. And you know, even though Kim, for example, is in the same company, she\u2019s traversed organizations similarly, and I think you can agree with me, or I hope you will, anyway.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, so I completely agree that\u2026 I always say that business leaders that grow up on the business side really are never going to speak the language of technology. Maybe they understand how they use technology, they understand what can be done, but may not understand how you make that come to life. And technology people know how to make things come to life, like deliver the solutions that create that value. And we have to learn how to speak the language of business, how to prioritize the business outcome over the specific technology choice, or selection, or implementation date \u2500 whatever those, you know, boundary conditions that we put on ourselves. And because we learn both and we understand the business outcome that we\u2019re trying to drive, it actually puts an IT leader\u2026when you compare a business leader. Now, you\u2019re trying to make a decision: What\u2019s the next person that I\u2019m going to put into this role that\u2019s going to drive the company to the next level? Am I going to put someone that understands one dimension? Or am I going to put someone that understands both dimensions? And that\u2019s why I think we\u2019re so fortunate as IT leaders now in this, sort of, next era of where technology\u2019s going to take companies, because we had to learn the business language to be able to effectively execute our IT mission. Business leaders have never had to do that until now, and that is a challenge to many of them. And it refers, Michael, to the resistance factors that you find in companies about the risk associated with adopting new technology.\nMichael Krigsman: And we have a question from Arsalan Khan, on Twitter, who asks: You\u2019re saying that the tech folks need to understand business, but Kim, hearkening to what you were just talking about, what about the need for business folks to have a better understanding of technology?\nAndi Karaboutis: So, I\u2019ll jump in on that one. It\u2019s the technologists\u2026 One of the key roles of the technology person\u2019s job is to help them understand; to help them understand the art of the possible with new and emerging technologies and how it can disrupt the business and enable the business. And so, the third dimension beyond understanding the technology and the core business is communication. Communication for a technologist is hugely important. And while I really don\u2019t want to take the burden off of the businesspeople to really understand the technology, etc. We need to make sure that we\u2019re communicating well enough, and not just communicating what is SOA, and what are services, and, you know, what is machine learning, but how those things apply to what is core and paramount to the business. So, I think that\u2019s a big role that we have to play and yes, the business does need to understand technology.\nMichael Krigsman: What about\u2026 You mentioned AI, machine learning, and it\u2019s almost becoming a, kind of, buzzword now. You\u2019re both in organizations that are exploring all of these technologies. Could you maybe talk a little about AI and machine learning, and some of these new technologies and the impact on your business, and how you\u2019re thinking about these things?\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, I\u2019ll start on that. So, for me, this is a really\u2026 So, AI has been a long time coming. And, the way I think of it is AI is the umbrella for things like machine learning, deep learning, cognitive computing, ambient computing. All of that sort of fits into the AI umbrella. And you\u2019re already seeing really, really interesting solutions come into play, like the self-driving cars and things like that. And then there\u2019s the drone, think of it as a demo, you know, 150 drones fly up in the air in unison, and we spell out the Intel logo, and we do interesting things with the drones. But take that to the next step where you might be using it for a search and rescue mission. Where if you had 150 drones, the area you could scan for search and rescue is multiplied by 150 times. You could save lives that way. If you\u2019re doing track inspections for railway tracks. And so, there\u2019s a lot of really interesting things that have to come into play, and this machine learning, deep learning, this artificial intelligence, helps you actually make decisions in faster time, and with more accuracy, that you just wouldn\u2019t be able to do without that. So, to me it\u2019s really exciting and it\u2019s a huge benefit for Intel\u2019s business, because the more data we\u2019re storing, the more we\u2019re processing, whether it\u2019s at the edge or back in the data center, those are all good things for Intel\u2019s business. So, for us, you know, to accelerate that momentum would be a really good option.\nAndi Karaboutis: Yep, I couldn\u2019t agree more with Kim, and it\u2019s multidimensional. You know, for my industry, for life sciences, if you think about the plethora of data to bring together, and not just the analytics in that, but deep mining to really learn from [it], to try to penetrate, you know, more quickly getting to therapeutics for diseases. There\u2019s thousands of diseases out there for which, you know, biologically, we have therapies for about 500. You know, the opportunity is tremendous for that data mining, and machine learning, and opportunities to drive various variables together. And interestingly enough, Michael, and Kim and I were just on a string over the weekend, there are so many dimensions to it. As with evolution of technology, and evolution of various industries, you know, with the new car, you had to develop roads, you had to develop rules of the road, machine learning brings with it some interesting moral and ethical things that we have to get in place to be able to manage, as the advent of it. As always, companies like intel are providing better, faster computing power. We have more storage, more of everything, companies like Dell and the rest are doing that. We have to make sure that technology doesn\u2019t become the long pole in the tent. We need to make sure that all of the ethical issues and all of that comes along with it. So, it\u2019s a really interesting topic and Kim and I are heavily into it.\nMichael Krigsman: So when you talk about, or think about some of the ethical issues, can you give us some examples of some of the potential issues that may come up?\nAndi Karaboutis: So by definition, machine learning, right, will take you to where you have now created intelligent devices that will take more, and more, and more actions on things. If we don\u2019t have rules of the road, I\u2019ll call it, at a very tactical level on how we develop these things, what are we doing, you know, think about I\u2019ll draw an analogy: Guns are used for good reasons. Guns can also be used for bad reasons. Atomic bombs on jets: same sort of thing. We have to make sure that what we\u2019re developing or programming has morals, ethics, integrity baked into the thought processes behind them, or something that could be very good could turn into something that could be very detrimental for people.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah. So there\u2019s a lot of decisions, you know, that are made. The easy ones to talk about are life and death decisions, but there are many nuances to it. But, if you\u2019re in a life or death decision today, so, if I\u2019m, you know, driving a car today, and, it\u2019s clear there\u2019s going to be an accident and I make a decision: Do I want to swerve right? Do I want to swerve left? Or do I want to go straight? So now the machine learning algorithm is going to make that decision because it\u2019s a self-driving car. And, so then, what do you tell it to do, when in front of you is your clear death, to the right of you is my grandmother, and to the left of you is my children? Which decision is the machine going to make? And you could take that to a military application, you could take that to drug running and supply chain automation. There\u2019s a lot of things that could go wrong, but I\u2019m a firm believer that technology shouldn\u2019t slow down for the fear that someone might do something bad with it. We are active in lobbying and discussing with Congress and legislative communities about what legislation should be in place. No clear answers at this point, but you take that ethical responsibility and that integrity responsibility with the technology advancement, and then, you have to take it to the legislative side. In fact, that\u2019s how we got airbags in cars. Right? So, I wouldn\u2019t slow down, but like Andi said was really good: Don\u2019t make technology the long pole in the tent. Think this thing through holistically to the whole solution, so that legislation will be there when you want to introduce the new technology.\nMichael Krigsman: Andi, do you think about AI/machine learning technologies in a different way than you would traditional software development or drug research?\nAndi Karaboutis: So, I mean, as with all evolving technology, you have to think about: What is it bringing more to the table? What can you do with it, etc.? And to me, yes, I do think about it differently. I think about it as data mining on steroids, and really coming up with how do we get the vast amounts of data that\u2019s out there, pull it back in, be able match it, find correlations, find causations, then go on to a next level of learning without sounding too redundant, and really taking that to help disrupt. If you look at our industry, you know, developing a therapeutic takes twelve years. And, when you have debilitating diseases like Alzheimer\u2019s and cancer, and things like that, anything you can do where you can go in silico, and you can use machine learning techniques, artificial intelligence techniques, you know, and deep analytics and things like that, absolutely. I mean, we are following it a vengeance and we do treat it differently because it\u2019s providing new capability to the table, and it can help solve bigger problems of course.\nMichael Krigsman: Well clearly, this is a very exciting point, and certainly it seems drug development and of course all the things that Intel is doing. To what extent are you embracing AI and machine learning? I\u2019m sure you both have organizations and folks devoted to this. But, where are we in the sort of explosion of the life cycle of the explosion of this?\nAndi Karaboutis: So Michael, I wish I could tell you that, you know, we are really far along the path, etc. I think we\u2019re treading very carefully. I think we\u2019ve got a great foundation in place here at Biogen. I would say, if you wanted a scale of 1-10, we\u2019re probably in the 2-3 range, and what the art of the possible is, and probably 10 keeps going further and further away from us, because as things progress, as the, you know, the technology and the learnings get better and better, we have a loftier goal to strive for.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, and I would say, Michael, you\u2019ve seen Intel announce products this year that are tuned for machine learning, deep learning, both training and scoring. So, we\u2019re all in from a business point of view, and you\u2019ll continue to see advancements there. I would say, though, you know, that we\u2019re still (even though there\u2019s sort of been this long buildup to it, because we\u2019ve been doing AI for a long time in different flavors), we are still in the very, very early days, where industry standards haven\u2019t been set yet, legislation still, the technology\u2019s evolving really, really rapidly all with great performance improvement. But, we have, you know, libraries being developed, etc. So, we\u2019re still at the early phase, and I think the way this plays out is you start to see component capabilities come in for autonomous function. The whole car doesn\u2019t go autonomous in the 2016-17, I guess, model year, but things do...You see the technology come out every generation. And that\u2019s what\u2019s so exciting. But, we\u2019ve got a good decade ahead of us before this fully comes into play, and there\u2019s going to be lots of coexistence with existing technology, new technology, and they\u2019re going to have to work well together.\nMichael Krigsman: I\u2019m involved with the IEEE, which has a major initiative going on looking at the ethical implications of AI, and autonomous systems. I actually co-chair one of their groups with David Bray, who\u2019s currently CIO of the FCC. Just any thought on tensions that may ultimately come up between the desire of people who are probably fearful and, in some cases, with good reason, to regulate AI and the desires of developers to have unfettered forward motion. So, any thought on that tension, at all?\nAndi Karaboutis: So I actually think developers sort of welcome the, what I\u2019ll call standards or the rules of the road that the IEEE could put in place, or other organizations. Great developers actually like to do good. They like to deliver great capabilities. They like to provide, especially what can we learn, how can we apply it? Again, back to my world, around how to do good for patients. And so, I think they welcome it. They actually want to be part of the conversation, that\u2019s the key thing. Instead of having something just come down, it\u2019s how do they become part of the conversation and provide their insights on what would be good ethical programming, good ethical machine learning, mining, etc. and what we do with it. You will always have the hackers, you will always have people that don\u2019t. But the mainstream, I think, is a very proud cadre of people that want to be proud of it. So, I really don\u2019t see it as attention. I just hope that the IEEE is bringing in good people and knowing them as they do, I think they probably are to help with that and ever.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, and I\u2019d say, Michael, to prove Andi\u2019s point: So, we have at Intel a Cloud for Good initiative, and one of the first implementation is what we call our cancer cloud. And, so it takes DNA sequencing information to actually give sort of better diagnosis and treatment plans. And, one of the things that we\u2019ve done, because data is always the key to these kinds of initiatives, is that we\u2019ve offered a benefit to employees and their families, that if you have cancer, we will pay for your DNA sequence so that it can get you to a better diagnosis and treatment plan. So, that all sounds wonderful, right? But, because healthcare is done on a state-by-state basis, we started in Oregon, and that\u2019s available in Oregon, and we have to work through other states to get the same kind of benefit available in other states, and then we will have to build datasets that are appropriate to that state. So when I said, it\u2019s going to take a decade, it\u2019s because of those kinds of things, and that\u2019s just a reality that you face, and you have to work within the system. And you know what, I never am afraid of tension. If there is tension, that usually leads the better dialogue, and gets us to a better answer. If there were no tension, I don\u2019t think we would be as creative and innovative in the solutions that we bring together as technologists. So, I applaud the tension, and would, hopefully you and David would do this, but request that you have a diverse set of people, you know, global representation, industry-wide representation, so that we get to answers that work, you know, across a global economy.\nMichael Krigsman: So I can\u2019t speak for the IEEE, but I can tell you this large initiative has global representation, has people from all different sectors, and certainly on the committee that David and I co-chair, we include policymakers and from the government, and independent think-tanks, and from private industry, because, absolutely, we agree that we need this balanced perspective that includes these multiple points of view.\nKim Stevenson: That\u2019s awesome.\nAndi Karaboutis: Great to hear, Michael.\nMichael Krigsman: So, let\u2019s go on to another topic in our last fifteen minutes of this show, and let\u2019s talk about, and I\u2019m cringing before I say it, let\u2019s talk about women in technology. [Laughter] So, okay, so either one of you can start and beat me down right from there.\nAndi Karaboutis: What do you want to talk about relative to women [in technology]? There\u2019s a lot of us there, we\u2019re hoping there will be more, Michael.\nMichael Krigsman: Let\u2019s talk about the fact that there are a lot of women there, and hoping that there will be more. Accenture recently came out with a study. They were partnering with Girls who Code, and USA Today had a provocative headline that said something to the effect of, \u201cIf we\u2019re not careful, the number of women in technology will actually decline between now and the year 2025.\u201d And as Kim pointed out earlier when we were talking, an attention-grabbing headline. But, still, there are concerns, and it\u2019s not a panacea.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, so let\u2019s\u2026 I always say we have to reframe this. When people start with \u201cwomen in tech\u201d, it\u2019s like women have a problem. And, the broader issue is how do we make the technology industry and profession an inclusive profession that includes people of all sorts of different backgrounds and genders and cultures, the whole bit; because, you know, I\u2019ll go back to my statement: we all know IT projects are all business projects. There are no teams that can be sort of, of a unilateral mindset. You need diverse experience, diverse perspectives, right? And I can give you lots of examples where products were developed by a homogenous team that didn\u2019t represent the customer that product was for, and it failed in the marketplace. Yet, when, you know, I\u2019ll go back to the early 2000\u2019s, Ford put a set of women engineers on the Ford Taurus, right? And it became the highest-selling car because they had a different need understanding of their customer. At Intel, we were working on some wearables, and some of them are high-end fashion bracelets. Well, who\u2019s going to wear the fashion bracelets? Women. And so, they were thinking about where on the bracelet do we put the USB charging port? And one of the women on the team said, \u201cWell, I wouldn\u2019t want to plug it in anyway, because at night, when I take off my jewelry, I lay it on my dresser. So why not create a wireless charger or a wireless pad that I can just set it on, and then you\u2019re not destroying the beauty of the bracelet with a plug for a USB charging.\u201d\nAnd so, there are just a few examples of where diverse members of the team that represent your constituency and your customer base actually get you to a better outcome. And so, when I think about where technology is going, I think the world demographics are changing. You know, by 2050 in the United States, there will be no racial or ethnic majority who will be that much of a blended community, and so then why wouldn\u2019t you have blended teams? I\u2019m pretty proud of what we\u2019ve done at Intel. It\u2019s say it\u2019s a journey and we\u2019re partway on the journey, but we set in place very clear objectives about our hiring retention and progression, of our diverse population. And, we\u2019re doing a great job. We\u2019re not there yet, but I\u2019ll tell you our hiring has been\u2026 we reported to the last two years over 40% diverse employees. And that tells you that talent is available. You may have to look in different places, you may have to change your interview teams, you may have some criteria about how you select people, but the talent is available and we haven\u2019t lowered our standards one bit. In fact, we increase our standards every year because of the rate and pace of technology change.\nAndi Karaboutis: So I, again, agree with Kim. I think she said it extremely well. The conversation has to become more robust. We do still have less women in technology than we\u2019d all like. We\u2019d like to see it, you know, be more 50/50, etc. The conversation has to be more robust around not just talking about women in technology for the sake of getting more women in technology, but what are the things we need to do to get the results we need. Part of it is great diversity programs, that I know Intel has and that Biogen has. Part of it is coming together in women in technology forums, not talking so much of the challenge of the results, but talking about the technology. I\u2019m being a little harsh here because there have been a lot of situations where I\u2019ve been asked to speak, I know Kim\u2019s been asked to speak as well, and it\u2019s how do we get more women? How do we do that? And I think it\u2019s a good topic but it shouldn\u2019t be the whole discussion. The discussion should be, \u201cWhat are we doing as women to really drive technology forward? What are we doing to be at the front end of that curve? What are we doing, for example, like Michigan Council for Women in Technology, which I was very proud to be part of when I was back in Michigan, to bring a feeder pool to fruition?\u201d And really start driving that. And again, I\u2019ll be a little harsh, and I hope my female colleagues will forgive me: a little less ruminating about it and a little bit more really continuing the great work that we\u2019ve started to drive it forward, and be the poster-people for these great implementations and great things that we\u2019ve done. So, I\u2019m being a little edgy here, I might get a little criticism for it, but I think Kim and I are saying the same thing\u2026\nKim Stevenson: Yup.\nAndi Karaboutis: \u2026 but we\u2019ve shared a bottle of wine and talked about that actually!\nKim Stevenson: We did! We did, not too long ago. And you know, Michael, the other thing that I get asked a lot\u2026 So, men have to help, right? I would not be here in my position today without having been mentored and supported by a number of men throughout my career. And, so there\u2019s a role for women\u2019s growth in this challenge that we\u2019re facing, but there\u2019s a role for men, too. Male advocacy is really important. So, to the extent that all of the audience today, you know\u2026 If you\u2019re thinking \u201cWhat can I do?\u201d, right, then I\u2019ll tell you it\u2019s really easy. Sponsor a woman that\u2019s midway through her career. Find a young woman and keep her, encourage her in technology. And then, ask them to do the same thing for two other women. And so, a couple small steps makes a huge impact when you start getting that multiplication factor.\nMichael Krigsman: You both are truly the poster examples of women with extraordinary careers, because you\u2019ve both come out through being CIOs, obviously a very male-dominated profession focused on tech, and, you have now moved into broader business roles. We hear about the seat at the table, I mean, you\u2019re both members of company boards. And so, what did you each do to make this happen?\nAndi Karaboutis: Well, you know, I don\u2019t know. Worked hard.\nKim Stevenson: You know, when I think about things that I would say, maybe I did differently than would be considered typically \u201cfemale,\u201d if that\u2019s a good way to think about it. It\u2019s a differentiator kind of thing, I definitely networked with a purpose. I still do. I network with people who I think can help me, not just people who I like. And, often women fall into that category that we network with people we like, we\u2019re so busy, so you use your relationship time that we need\u2026 By the way, for women, \u201crelationship time\u201d fuels us. It helps make us whole. So, you tend to, then, network with people who you like. And in business, frankly, liking somebody isn\u2019t the key criteria, right? Can they help you get done what you need to get done? Can they help you build a partner ecosystem? Can they help you with their innovation agenda? So, again, I think that sounds a little bit harsh, but I do think that that\u2019s a differentiator and I think I\u2019ve always done that. I\u2019ve networked with people that I believe had a shared view, and were in it to help one another, sort of looking for that win-win. Whether I like them personally or not was not a criteria at the beginning. I hope through the developing of a relationship that I like them as people at the end, but it isn\u2019t always the case. And that, for me, is okay.\nAndi Karaboutis: Now for me, for me \u2026 the way\u2026 the simplest thing that\u2019s helped me do it is overcome that little voice inside that says \u201cNot good enough, overcome the qualifications.\u201d We\u2019ve all heard this story of you put a job description in front of a male candidate and ask them, \u201cDo you think you could do it?\u201d and they say \u201cYeah, absolutely!\u201d And we females do have that little voice inside that says, \u201cOh, I haven\u2019t done this, I don\u2019t have experience, I\u2019ve never been on a board, I\u2019ve never sat in a boardroom, etc. etc.\u201d And, so, for me it\u2019s been just kind of pushing that voice back and saying, \u201cYeah, I can do it!\u201d and it just takes a little more work to figure out how I make myself comfortable with it as I\u2019ve built the capabilities needed in this description kind of thing. And that\u2019s the thing that I tell young women, when I\u2019m mentoring them, about the only thing that gets in your way isn\u2019t \u201cPeople don\u2019t like you, they\u2019re not promoting you, there\u2019s a glass ceiling,\u201d though some of those things can be very real. But the thing you can control and overcome is that voice inside you that says, \u201cI don\u2019t think I can do it.\u201d And, certainly not just women, but I know it\u2019s more so with especially young girls aspiring to do things that appear challenging. And I think we need to move on with that.\nThe second thing is, I stopped beating myself up for not having the demeanor that a lot of people expect of me. I am passionate, I can be emotional, and, you know, I would beat myself up driving home thinking, \u201cOh, was I a little too emotional or a little too passionate?\u201d And once I put that thing aside and started focusing on, \u201cDid I deliver what we needed to do? Maybe how could I do it better with the results for it?\u201d I got out of my own way, and we women need to get out of our own way. Again, being a little harsh, a little edgy, I hope people forgive me, and sort of embrace that and take it. I think that\u2019s really important and what\u2019s helped me.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, I would say, being your authentic self is a great attribute for any leader. And so, if that means you\u2019re a little bit more passionate or you\u2019re prone to tears, so what? It\u2019s who you are. But, when you have to cover, that\u2019s an official social scientist term, \u201ccover,\u201d and try to pretend you\u2019re somebody that you\u2019re not, all your energy goes into covering instead of actually solving the problem and so\u2026 I\u2019ve been called a lot of things during my career. Some of them have been positive, some of them haven\u2019t been. But, frequently, and actually this has been true for a long time. People will say I\u2019m \u201cintimidating,\u201d and, for a long time, that bothered me, because what they think is intimidating\u2026 When I look in the mirror, what I see it as is passion. I just want to get something done. And I finally just decided to own it. Right? So yes, I am a little intimidating. But, you know what? That\u2019s who I am, and you just have to sort of own it. None of us are perfect, men or women. We all have our quirks. If you can stay authentic and open up, and that way, I think you can be a lot more effective.\nMichael Krigsman: Well, that was really just amazing hearing you both talk. We only have a few minutes left. What advice or recommendations do you have for organizations that want to do more?\nAndi Karaboutis: Stop thinking about the IT organization, the CIO, the digital data organizations in the traditional sense of they are digitizing processes and capabilities, and start thinking, like many companies already do, how to take the person, the organization, the technologies available, and put the challenge to them to how will they help contribute, or completely change, what the company should do in order to be more innovative and really drive top-line and bottom-line growth.\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, and I would say, I\u2019ll take the team aspect of it. Make your goal to build high-performance teams. Most companies can buy the technology that you need, when what you want is a high performance team that\u2019s made up of a diverse population that represents the customer base you\u2019re going after today, and the customer base you\u2019re going after in the future. And then, you\u2019ll be able to partner with great technology companies across the board, to help bring the technology to life. But you need that high performance team that really will implement it, because in the end, technology is good for business.\nMichael Krigsman: Boy, I wish that we had a lot more time, because there\u2019s so much to talk about. But, maybe, let\u2019s finish up by asking each of you, what advice can you offer to CIOs? I mean, you\u2019ve both been there, and done that, in the past and you have a very broad perspective. And so, what advice do you have for a CIO that wants to be just great at what she, or he does? Andi, how about you?\nAndi Karaboutis: So, it\u2019s a little bit of what we said earlier on. I\u2019ll emphasize it Michael, which is continue to not just be an expert in technology, and continue to not just understand your business, but think about, imagine a day when, or imagine a life of around your business where you\u2019re actually futuring. And you\u2019re thinking a couple steps ahead. The days of \u201cLet\u2019s go see what the business needs,\u201d or even \u201cLet me look at the position and vision of the company and see how I can support it,\u201d which is very important. That third step of \u201cImagine a world where\u2026 What can I do to actually bring in and modify what the company can bring to the table as a leader versus a peer, or a follower,\u201d if you will?\nMichael Krigsman: And Kim, your thoughts?\nKim Stevenson: Yeah, I would say company strategy first. Are you executing the company strategy, and you\u2019re bringing the technology pillar into the company strategy? And, part of what the unique ability that you have in IT is to help make those company tradeoffs. So the strategy is a great plan, but in execution, you have to make a tradeoff across business units within product portfolios, you name it. And often, you will bring a unique perspective to help make those tradeoffs that get us to the best strategy. And so, it\u2019s a business recommendation, not necessarily a technology recommendation, but it\u2019s so key to be able to set yourself apart from the business leaders who get paid on their maximizing their P&L, and having that corporate perspective and helping you execute the strategy I think is key. And just never forget that if you try to approach it from being in the seat of the business leader, then I think that you are able to relate better to the challenges that they have, and help work through those knotholes that inevitably come up.\nMichael Krigsman: Wow, well I am going to have to go back and listen to this conversation.

Unterberger first studied at the Munich Academy in 1853 with Clemens von Zimmermann and Julius Lange and then continued his training at the Weimar Academy under Albert Zimmermann. He visited Milan in 1858 but returned to Munich the following year due to the unsettled political situation. In 1859, Unterberger enrolled at the Dusseldorf Academy where he joined the Achenbach brothers, who became famous for their landscapes. Between 1860 and 1874 Unterberger visited and painted in Norway, then in Belgium. He settled in Brussels in 1864, where he spent the rest of his life. During this period, he usually spent summers at Neuilly-sur-Seine (outside of Paris), and from there he often visited Sicily and southern Italy, notedly Naples and its environs where he painted some of his best pictures. Unterberger also traveled along the coast of England and Scotland. These trips provided inspiration for many of the artist\u2019s finest paintings. He also found great success in Vienna, where he exhibited and received several medals, including the Order of Francis Joseph. He was a romantic style painter of landscapes, genre, architectures, and water scenes. Unterberger is best known for his scenic paintings Italy, which feature intimate views as well as large vistas of the country\u2019s iconic cities. Unterberger\u2019s romantic atmospheric style of painting remains very popular and his works can be found in important private and museum collections throughout America and Europe.

        "raw_content": "Where an infant fixes their gaze 'could be an early indicator of autism'\nAn early sign that a child may develop autism could be as simple as noting where they fix their gaze.\nThose considered at 'high-risk' of developing a form of the disorder were far more likely to become fixated with a non-social toy when left to their own devices.\nWhen stimulated, children with autistic siblings responded in a similar way to low-risk youngsters. However they spent far longer gazing at a non-social toy when left alone (posed)\nAutism is a lifelong developmental disability and part of a spectrum disorder. The main symptoms are difficulties with social interaction, impaired communication skills and unusual thought and behaviour patterns.\nAutism is thought to affect one in 100 children in England and those with autistic siblings are 25 times times more likely to develop the condition than those with no family history of autism.\nResearchers at the Kennedy Krieger institute and University of Delaware studied 25 six-month-old infants in this 'high-risk' group along with 25 of their peers.\nThe youngsters were placed in a chair with a simple joystick. When they moved it the musical toy was activated and they were given more attention by their caregiver. When actively engaged the children in both groups spent a similar amount of time looking at the person as they did at the toy.\nHowever, the team found that when the babies were not being engaged, those in the high risk group spent far more time gazing at the toy than the caregiver.\nStudy author Dr Rebecca Landa, said the study showed a subtle early marker for autism.\n'This study shows that there is a particular vulnerability in high-risk siblings at six months of age,' she said.\n'They are not as socially interactive and engaged on their own as their peers, but still respond typically when engaged by their caregivers, making for a subtle difference that could be easily overlooked by both parents and some professionals.'\nThe study suggests that like older children, infants at high risk of autism may benefit from frequent exposure to simple cause and effect lessons to aid their development.\n'Babies in both groups of the study learned the multi-stimuli task to the same degree,' Dr Landa said.\n'The high-risk siblings still have the capacity to learn cause and effect as well as their low-risk peers at this young age.'\nDr Gina Gomez de la Cuesta, Action Research Leader at The National Autistic Society was cautiously optimistic about the findings.\nShe told the Mail Online: 'There has been a lot of research which examines a child's level of joint attention or eye gazing patterns and the potential links to autism.\n'This study of siblings is interesting as it shows more problems in initiating joint attention with others than responding to joint attention.\n'However, until the children reach an age where diagnosis is possible, it is difficult to say how accurately these behaviours can be used to predict a diagnosis of autism.'",

Jay promptly butted in, saying 'Excuse me Kanye I am going to let you continue...'\nWhat the cheeky rapper and husband of Beyonce was referring to was the moment West leaped from his seat and ran on stage during Swift's acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Music Awards.\nHe took to the microphone while the Country Music star was addressing the crowd and said the gong should have gone to his friend and Jay's wife Beyonce, for Single Ladies.\nI'll take it: Kanye graciously accepted the joke after being embarrassed by his friend\nJay-Z's gag last night elicited roars of laughter from the crowd who all immediately got the joke.\nA slightly embarrassed Kanye laughed it off, telling his friend: 'I am trying to defend your girl man!' referring to Beyonce, who was also in fits of giggles in her seat.\nKanye's reputation was left tarnished in 2009 when the rapper stormed on stage to unleash an astonishing rant during an acceptance speech by the country starlet.\nLaugh out loud: Jay-Z's gag last night elicited roars of laughter from the crowd\nThe young singer, who was collecting Best Female Video for You Belong To Me, was left humiliated as West snatched the microphone from her hands.\nHe turned to the audience and shouted that the gong should have gone to Beyonce.\nThe hip hop star, who had been swigging Hennessy cognac on the red carpet earlier in the night, was booed roundly by the celebrity-packed audience of thousands.\nBig night: Jay and Kanye also took home the award for Best Group\nAnd it was only the first category of the night.\nSwift had breathlessly began her speech with the words, 'I always wondered what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day, but never actually thought it would happen'.\nBut before she could continue any further, West leaped from his seat in the audience, ran onto the stage and rushed to grab the microphone as a bemused Swfit struggled to take in what was happening.\nWest told the stunned star: 'Yo Taylor. I'm really happy for you, I'm going to let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.'\nShocking: Kanye's reputation was left tarnished in 2009 when the rapper stormed on stage to unleash an astonishing rant during an acceptance speech by Taylor Swift\nCameras cut to Beyonce in the crowd who looked shocked and mortified.\nAs West shrugged his shoulders and handed back the microphone, a shell-shocked Swift stood in the centre of the stage seemingly unable to continue.\nHowever, she was given another chance to say her piece when Beyonce did win an award for Single Ladies, in the Best Choreography category.\nFirst she told the audience about her first VMA win as a 17-year-old with Destiny's Child and how much it meant to her and then she sportingly brought the teen singer back on stage to huge applause.\nNot happy: Claiming he was defending his friend Beyonce, cameras cut to the singer in the crowd who looked shocked and mortified\nThe pair, both dressed in bright red, embraced before Beyonce passed the microphone to Swift.\nWest was later ejected from the awards show at Radio City Music Hall in New York.\nHe apologised for his outburst on his blog later.\nHe wrote: 'I'm sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom.'\nHe added: 'I'm in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment. Beyonce's video was the best of this decade . . . I'm sorry to my fans if I let you guys down . . . I'm sorry to my friends at MTV . . . I will apologise to Taylor.'\nMoving on: Beyonce, Jay-Z, Kanye and his new girlfriend Kim Kardashian all sat together at last night's show\nIt is not the first time he has made his feelings known at award ceremonies.\nAt the 2007 MTV VMAs, he was caught on camera ranting backstage because he had not won for the second year in a row and in 2004, he stormed out of the American Music Awards for losing the best new artist category.\nProud: Kanye hardly left Kim's side all night\nAnd at the MTV Europe awards in 2006, Kanye jumped onstage after losing out on the Best Video award for Touch The Sky to Simian.\nGrabbing a microphone during their speech, he claimed his video should have won because it 'cost a million dollars, and Pamela Anderson was in it. I was jumping across canyons.'\nHe later admitted to having a 'sippy sippy' before the performance.\nFor her part, Swift called the evening back in 2009 'interesting.'\n'I was standing on stage and I was really excited because I'd just won the award and then I was really excited because Kanye West was on stage,' Swift recalled after the show. 'And then I wasn't excited anymore after that.'\nShe later said she had been getting many messages of support and that she felt indebted to Beyonce for giving up her moment to allow her to speak.\n'It was just so wonderful and so incredibly classy of her and just gracious and wonderful to let me say something.\n'She's just been my hero and one of my idols ever since I was little. Before the talented artist, the superstar, she's always been a great person and I just, I thought I couldn't love Beyonce more tonight, than tonight.'\nSwift said she didn't have any ill-will toward the rapper of whom she said she was once a fan.\n'I don't know him, and I've never met him, so...' she said. 'I don't want to start anything because I had a great night tonight.'\nBET Awards 2012: Jay-Z interrupts Kanye's acceptance speech after West ruined Taylor Swift's back in 2009",

Unfortunately, some of these celebrations end with a party-goer getting arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Over th...",

        "raw_content": "Linda Stogner Is 2014's Funniest Comic in Texas\nOnce again, the Addison Improv hosted the final showdown for the Funniest Comic in Texas and this year's honor went to two-time FCiT finalist and local comedian Linda Stogner.\nOne-fourth of the Four Funny Females, Stogner went up against four strong sets from four equally talented comedians including Joel \"Junebug\" Runnels, Chris Mack, Jon Stringer and Theo Taylor. However, Stogner's well-honed brand of absurdist observation ultimately won over the judges and the final trophy, which was presented by last year's winner Raul Sanchez.\nThe evening started with another strong set from San Antonio's Sanchez who opened with some new material that reminded the audience why he was last year's funniest person in an entire state. Sanchez has a great sense of self-depreciation and a sharp eye for tearing apart any topic that he delivers with a great talent for story telling and timing.\n\"When I was younger, I thought I was going to be an author and writing novels and shit,\" Sanchez said. \"Now I know I'm not because that's how I describe it.\"\nRunnels kicked off the competition with an unflinching mix of topical and personal material that covered a visit to an appropriately named specialist called Dr. Wang and some clever wordplay on illegal immigration.\n\"We took this country from Mexico,\" he said, \"because if you take the 'r' out of 'American,' you got 'A Mexican.'\"\nDallas' Chris Mack jumped up on stage next. His set featured observations about geek culture without relying too much on the topic to wear the hook with some personal stories about his \"personal time\" during his military service. He also seemed very adept at playing with the audience.\nAustin's Jon Stringer followed Mack's set and he should have won a special honor for having the most energetic set of the night. His stage had a slow build that ended with a very lively dance performance dedicated to the greatness of 80s karaoke staples and started with some great observational bits including one about the active lives of people in Valtrex commercials.\n\"Apparently, when you get herpes, everyday you're in the X-Games,\" he said.\nHouston's Theo Taylor, winner of the 2011 Houston's Funniest Person contest, also offered a very lively and energetic set that served as the perfect closer of the night before the final winner was crowned. He offered some solid material including a great bit for a Texas crowd about getting asked if everyone rode horses by some smart ass New Yorker.\n\"I took him outside and pointed up at the moon,\" he said. \"People from my state built a rocket and flew up there and you ask me if we still drive cars?\"\nHowever, Stogner's well-honed material and killer delivery ultimately won over the judges. She's created a unique character for herself on stage as a quirky person with an unfamiliar view of the world as if someone just dropped her off on Earth during some intergalactic layover. She easily had some of the funniest bits of the night.\n\"Some people think I'm on drugs,\" she said. \"I'm not. I'm just goofy. If I was on drugs, I'd be normal. 'Why is Linda in a business suit doing spreadsheets?' Linda's on meth again. Bring your taxes before it wears off.\"\nThat character quickly went away, however, when she walked up to accept her award on the verge of tears and as she stood on stage before a rousing crowd of fans.\n\"I'd just like to say in the words of Mitch Hedberg, stand-up comedy is a noble profession,\" Stogner said.",

        "raw_content": "Unreimbursed Business Employee Expenses\nThis article is another in City National\u2019s ongoing explanations of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the \u201cNew Act\u201d). The New Act significantly modifies the rules under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986 as amended (the \u201cOld Code\u201d).\nIn this article, we explain the changes introduced that affect unreimbursed business employee expenses.\nIn the course of her or his business function, an employee may incur expenses on behalf of her or his employer that are not reimbursed by the employer. If and when this occurs, the employee may deduct that unreimbursed expense on IRS Form 2106-EZ and by attaching that form to her or his IRS Form 1040.\nIn order to deduct an unreimbursed expense, the expense must be an \u201cordinary and necessary\u201d expense in relation to the employee\u2019s job. The expense must be (1) common and accepted in the employee\u2019s field or trade, business or profession, and (2) it must be a necessary expense that is helpful and appropriate for the business itself. An example of such an expense would be when an employee drives extensively for his or her job, but the employer does not reimburse the employee for those miles driven.\nUnreimbursed employee business expenses are considered miscellaneous itemized deductions.\nUnder the Old Code, an employee was able to deduct unreimbursed business employee expenses only when her or his miscellaneous itemized deductions exceeded two percent of her or his adjusted gross income (AGI).\nThe New Act repeals the deductibility of such miscellaneous itemized deductions, thereby disallowing any deductions for unreimbursed business employee expenses. This provision of the New Act will sunset on Dec. 31, 2025, and the Old Code provisions will return on Jan. 1, 2026, unless the provisions of the New Act are extended prior to sunset.\nThe New Act increases the standard deduction significantly. That increase appears intended to overcome the loss of the deductibility of miscellaneous itemized deductions. The changes may also encourage companies to start reimbursing employees for business employee expenses where before the company simply relied on the employee deducting them on her or his personal IRS Form 1040. Business owners may wish to consult with their tax advisors about their current reimbursement policies to ensure those policies are in line with the provisions under the New Act.",

        "raw_content": "Government to address \u2018overclassification\u2019 in cyber sector\nintel & cyber | 13 April 2018 | Reporter\nA more co-operative relationship between government intelligence agencies and the private sector is being pushed forward by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC).\nIn a review of the Australian government's cyber security strategy, the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) has said the government is looking to drop its reputation for overclassifying material in a bid to enhance its relationship with industry.\n\"It has long been argued that overclassification of material, such as threat intelligence, by governments prevents easy information exchange with the outside world, including key partners such as industry,\" the report said.\n\"The government has recognised this and is positioning \u2018Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) 2.0\u2019 to facilitate a more cooperative and informed relationship with the private sector.\"\nThe report, authored by head of the International Cyber Policy Centre Fergus Hanson and ASPI visiting fellow Tom Uren, also recommended the government could get more benefits by lowering classifications of information related to offensive cyber operations; operations that disrupt, deny or degrade the computers or computer networks of adversaries.\n\"The government should continue to scope the potential benefits from lowering the classification of information associated with o\ufb00ensive cyber operations. In particular, there are benefits in operating at the SECRET level for workforce generation and training and providing a \u2018halfway house\u2019 to usefully employ incoming staff as they wait during vetting procedures,\" the report argues.\n\"More broadly, excessive classification slows potentially valuable two\u2011way information exchange with the information security community.\"\nThe report also called for a review of the laws governing oversight for the ASD. Currently, the Australian government\u2019s offensive cyber capability sits within ASD and works closely with each of the three services, which embed staff assigned to ASD from the ADF\u2019s Joint Cyber Unit. Current legislation, policy and oversight ensures that ASD and the ADF work together in a lawful, collaborative and co-operative manner to support military operations. When seeking approval for operations from the Minister for Defence, ASD has to seek legal, foreign policy and national security advice from sources external to Defence.\nHanson and Uren argue that while this current arrangement works at present, the policy and legislative framework will need to be updated to allow for the employment of offensive cyber in ADF operations.\n\"While those oversight arrangements may be sufficient for now, the ADF will inevitably need to incorporate offensive cyber on the battlefield as a way to create local effects, including force protection measures and to deliver effects currently generated by electronic warfare (such as jamming communications technology),\" the report said.\n\"It should not always be necessary to reach back to the national authorities for clear\u2011cut and time critical battlefield decisions. There appears to be scope to update the existing policy and legislative framework that governs the employment of o\ufb00ensive cyber in deployed operations to support those kinds of activities.\"",

        "raw_content": "Lincecum, Wilson make NL All-Star team\nDENVER\u2014Tim Lincecum and Brian Wilson will represent the San Francisco Giants at the July 13 All-Star game in Anaheim.\nThe two were notified Sunday before the team\u2019s game with the Colorado Rockies.\n\u201cI\u2019m excited for them,\u201d San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said. \u201cTimmy, when you look at the hiccups that he had, you have to realize he\u2019s had a good first half.\n\u201cAnd what a year Brian has had,\u201d Bochy added. \u201cWe aren\u2019t happy where we\u2019re at, but I can\u2019t think where we would be without him because he\u2019s bailed us out so much.\u201d\nLincecum, a two-time Cy Young award winner, was selected for the third straight year. It\u2019s the first time that\u2019s happened to a Giant pitcher since Juan Marichal was picked three times in a row in the 1960s.\n\u201cI was kind of surprised to hear it,\u201d said Lincecum, 8-4, a 3.28 ERA in 17 starts and an National League-leading 121 strikeouts. \u201cI won\u2019t say I had anything set up to go back to Seattle during the break, but I had an idea that I would want to do that.\u201d\nHe was named NL team in 2008 and 2009. He did not appear in the 2008 game but started a year later in 2009, working two innings, allowing two hits and two runs.\nWilson has one All-Star game on his resume. He worked 2-3 of an inning and struck out one batter in the 2008 game.\nGoing into Sunday, Wilson had 2-0 with a 2.10 ERA and converted 22 of 24 save opportunities. He ranks second behind San Diego\u2019s Heath Bell (23) in the NL in saves.\nWilson made it clear he would accept either a setup or closer role at the All-Star game.\n\u201cI\u2019ll take whatever outs the National League wants me to,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cIf they want me to get the final three outs, I\u2019ll be more than happy to take the ball. I might have a little adrenaline going.\u201d\nThe Giants were disappointed that outfielder Aubrey Huff, .290, 15 home runs and 47 RBIs, hadn\u2019t been named to the team.",

        "raw_content": "YESS Institute\u2019s peer mentoring gets an\u2026\nYESS Institute\u2019s peer mentoring gets an affirmative\nSabastian Casillas, 15, makes waffles with his mentor, Justina Garcia, 17, in their YESS peer-mentoring class at Denver North High School on Dec. 17. The class was having a waffle party before Christmas break.\nThe inviting aroma of batter meeting oil and cast iron wafted through the classroom on the second floor of North High School. The students in Sarah Clark Staal\u2019s YESS Institute peer-mentoring class were one by one putting down their pencils after a test. It was nearing the holiday break, and it was waffle day.\nFor junior Justina Garcia and sophomore Sabastian Casillas, there was no waffling about the relationship they\u2019ve forged since the start of the semester.\nEach has already felt the benefits of a program intended to spur academic success in at-risk students and hone leadership skills in both mentor and mentee.\nGarcia and Casillas came to North\u2019s YESS Institute with different aims. A member of the National Honor Society and student council, Garcia wanted to further enhance her leadership skills. \u201cI figured it would be another great way for me to interact with other kids in my school that I don\u2019t get to see all the time, a way to help them,\u201d she said.\nYESS mentees are referred to the program.\n\u201cMy teachers told me this would be a good way to get better work habits and meet a few people. I thought I\u2019d try it,\u201d said the deceptively quiet Casillas. \u201cIt\u2019s been helping me ever since.\u201d\nFounded in 2001 by current executive director Carol Kriekels and Susan Greer, YESS has put its peer-mentoring approach to the test at Denver\u2019s North, Lincoln and West high schools.\nA longitudinal study conducted at Lincoln looked at the lowest-performing ninth-graders (GPA below 1.0 and low attendance) who participated in YESS compared with students who did not.\n\u201cWe found that 85 percent of the YESS students graduated or were on track to graduate compared to 45 percent of the control group,\u201d said Kriekels.\nGarcia sees herself as a beneficiary of the kind of peer-to-peer relationships that YESS is built on.\n\u201cIn elementary school, I would go-by, to pass,\u201d she admitted. Then in middle school she met her best friend. \u201cShe was a big push for me. Seeing her, she was really good. She was motivated. I needed an extra push. I\u2019m with her every day,\u201d said Garcia. \u201cSo I get pushed every day.\u201d\nBecause of YESS, so does Casillas.\nParticipants meet four days a week for a total of four hours and 25 minutes. One session is devoted to homework support. The other three cover a YESS-designed curriculum aimed at building trusting relationships and self-awareness, nurturing communication skills and setting goals.\nWhile Garcia and Casillas don\u2019t run into each other often outside the classroom, they stay connected. For instance, there are Garcia\u2019s pesky text messages about homework.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think its the best text he likes to get.\u201d she said, then laughed.\nBut \u201cit\u2019s motivating,\u201d Casillas chimed in.\n\u201cI\u2019m on him and it makes me on top of myself,\u201d said Garcia. \u201cBecause I can\u2019t tell him when I\u2019m not doing it. So it pushes me.\u201d\nCall it gentle, persistent accountability.

        "raw_content": "Report: Nearly 200 Social Security judges rubber-stamp claims, approving lifetime payments\nBy Stephen Ohlemacher\nzimmytws, Getty Images/iStockphoto\nAmid complaints about lengthy waits for Social Security disability benefits, congressional investigators say nearly 200 administrative judges have been rubber-stamping claims, approving billions of dollars in lifetime payments from the cash-strapped program.\nIn essence, these judges rubber stamped nearly every claimant before them for a lifetime of benefits at taxpayer expense. \u2014Report\nWASHINGTON \u2014 Amid complaints about lengthy waits for Social Security disability benefits, congressional investigators say nearly 200 administrative judges have been rubber-stamping claims, approving billions of dollars in lifetime payments from the cash-strapped program.\nFour of the judges defended their work at a combative congressional hearing Tuesday. They said they follow the law.\n\"I've seen their ailments, I've seen their pain, right in front of me,\" Judge Gerald I. Krafsur of Kingsport Tennessee told the House Oversight Committee.\nKrafsur approved 99 percent of the cases he decided from 2005 to 2013, according to a new report by the Republican staff of the Oversight Committee.\nLifetime benefits average about $300,000, according to the report, so Krafsur's cases will lead to nearly $1.8 billion in benefits.\nBy the time disability cases reach an administrative law judge, the claims have been rejected at least once and often twice by workers in state offices.\nHouse Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., was incredulous that so many judges would rule that initial rejections were so often wrong.\n\"Are the people below you always wrong?\" Issa asked Judge Charles Bridges of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.\n\"I would say they are not legally trained,\" replied Bridges, who approved 95 percent of the cases he decided.\nWhen pressed further about his approval rate, Bridges said: \"I don't pay attention to those figures. All I do is concentrate on each case, one at a time.\"\nIssa: \"You don't notice that you're essentially saying 'approved, approved, approved,' almost all the time?\"\nBridges: \"I don't want to be influenced by that.\"\nThe committee's report found that 191 judges approved more than 85 percent of the cases they decided from 2005 to 2013. All told, those judges approved $153 billion in lifetime benefits, the report said.\nSocial Security employs a little more than 1,400 administrative law judges.\n\"In essence, these judges rubber stamped nearly every claimant before them for a lifetime of benefits at taxpayer expense,\" the report said.\nThe report said some judges approved claims at alarmingly high rates as part of an agency effort to reduce case backlogs and processing times. It is often easier for a judge to approve a claim than to deny it, the report said.\nDenials can be appealed, so judges must meticulously document their reasons, the report said. Approvals are generally accepted, ending the judge's role in the case.\nIn 2007, the average processing time for a hearing was 512 days. It was reduced to less than a year in 2012, but has since crept back up above 400 days.\nThere are 937,600 cases pending before administrative law judges, according agency statistics.\nActing Social Security Commissioner Carolyn W. Colvin blamed budget cuts for the recent increase in wait times.\nThe House Oversight Committee is holding two hearings this week on the disability program. On Wednesday, Colvin is scheduled to testify.\nIn written testimony, Colvin says the agency has improved training and oversight for administrative law judges, but is limited in what it can do because of budget constraints.\n\"Since instituting all of the enhanced quality review initiatives that I just outlined, we have observed that the number of judges with extremely high and low allowance rates has dropped,\" Colvin says in her testimony.\nNationwide, approval rates among judges have declined in recent years. In 2013, judges approved 56 percent of the cases they decided, down from 72 percent in 2005.\nTuesday's hearing comes as Social Security's disability program edges toward the brink of insolvency. The trust fund that supports the disability program is projected to run out of money in 2016. At that point, the system will collect only enough money in payroll taxes to pay 80 percent of benefits, triggering an automatic 20 percent cut in benefits.\nNearly 11 million disabled workers, spouses and children get Social Security disability benefits. That's a 45 percent increase from a decade ago. The average monthly benefit for a disabled worker is $1,146.\nIn order to qualify, people are supposed to have disabilities that prevent them from working and are expected to last at least a year or result in death.\n\"I am concerned about Americans who work hard and earn disability coverage,\" Judge James A. Burke of Albuquerque, New Mexico, told the Oversight Committee.\n\"When they become disabled, they wait three years to get the coverage they earned. Lives and families are destroyed,\" Burke said. \"I see their medical records and hear their testimony. I am trained to make legal and factual decisions. I am confident that I make the right decisions.\"\nBurke approved 96 percent of the cases he decided from 2005 to 2013, according to the committee's report.",

        "raw_content": "Salt Lake City Council chairwoman expects tax hike has support to pass\nSalt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskuspski releases her annual budget proposal in Salt Lake City on Monday, April 30, 2018.\nSalt Lake County approves ordinance to enact $58 million sales tax hike if enough cities signal support\nSalt Lake County Council poised to leave sales tax hike revival up to city leaders\nSalt Lake City delays vote on proposed sales tax hike amid concerns of spending uncertainty\nSALT LAKE CITY \u2014 In her third year, Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski unveiled essentially two budget proposals on Monday: one with a sales tax increase and one without.\n\"To say this year's process was unique is an understatement,\" the mayor said.\nOne version would balance the city's roughly $275.5 million 2019 budget. But the other includes much more \u2014 with $25 million more in tax revenue from a proposed 0.5 percent sales tax hike to provide millions more for priorities high on city leaders' wish lists: streets, buses, police and affordable housing.\nIf the tax hike passes in a vote Tuesday \u2014 which City Council Chairwoman Erin Mendenhall said she expects it will \u2014 those who shop in Utah's capital city would pay an estimated 5 cents more for every $10 spent (minus food and big-ticket purchases like vehicles).\nFor that extra $25 million in tax revenue, Biskupski proposes spending it on the following priorities:\n\u2022 More than $7.1 million for streets and infrastructure, including about $3.7 million for new roads and sidewalk projects and $2.9 million for a new maintenance crew.\n\u2022 Nearly $6 million for public safety, including $2.2 million for 27 more police officers and nearly $2.6 million for an overall police salary and benefit increase.\n\u2022 Nearly $5.3 million to implement the city's Transit Master Plan. That includes nearly $2.5 million to create \"high frequency\" Utah Transit Authority bus routes \u2014 with Sunday service \u2014 on streets including 900 South, 200 South, 2100 South, 600 North and possibly 1000 North.\n\u2022 More than $4.1 million for affordable housing initiatives, including $2.1 million to provide financing and incentives for developers to include affordable housing in mixed-income developments and more than $656,000 for rent assistance, and hundreds of thousands more for other various housing programs.\nThe proposal, coined \"Funding Our Future,\" is an opportunity for Salt Lake City to \"control its own destiny,\" Biskupski said.\n\"If passed by the council, Funding Our Future will allow Salt Lake City to do what many cities across the country have been able to accomplish \u2014 that is to implement strategic plans quickly, through a dedicated funding source,\" Biskupski said.\nThe biggest chunk of the tax revenue would go to infrastructure, meant to rebuild the \"worst of the city's roads,\" the mayor said, noting that two-thirds of the city's roads were rated poor or failing in a recent city study.\nThe new maintenance crew would allow the city to maintain 155 lane miles of roadway annually, which would double the amount the city maintains today, the mayor said.\nFor buses, Biskupski said the city would contract with UTA for better Monday through Saturday frequency, with hours from 5 a.m. to midnight as well as \"at long last, Sunday service.\"\nAdditionally, Biskupski would fund a list of other transit programs, including a \"home-to-transit\" program that would cover ride share-type services to residents who live more than a quarter of a mile from a 15-minute frequency bus route, as well as a \"work-to-transit\" program that would work with businesses in west-side Salt Lake City to fund a similar type shuttle service for employees in those areas.\nAs for police, the City Council last year approved a one-time budget adjustment to hire 50 police officers \u2014 but Biskupski's 2019 proposal would only fund 27 officers.\nCouncilman Charlie Luke, who pushed for the 50 officers, said Monday he is \"concerned\" to see only 27 officers funded, so he plans on discussing it in Tuesday's council meeting.\n\"I think they're going to have to explain why is it the police department feels 27 is sufficient,\" Luke said, worried that in order to fully fund them the city may have to cut from other spending priorities.\nBiskupski told reporters that over the years \"dollars will ebb and flow\" but stay in the proposed priority areas, and the 27 officers are just \"our first bite at that apple.\"\n\"We're confident over the next two years we can hire all 50, but these things take time,\" Biskupski said.\nThe mayor's budget proposal also includes about $2 million in departmental spending cuts \u2014 including the elimination of vacant positions \u2014 which were offset by about $1.7 million more from a 7 percent rise in employee health insurance costs. It also includes a 3 percent salary adjustment for all employees (including $3.4 million in the general fund and $2.13 million in sales tax proposal).\nThe mayor's budget recommendation comes the day before the Salt Lake City Council is scheduled to vote on the sales tax hike. The council was originally scheduled to vote two weeks ago but delayed the decision amid concerns from the downtown business community, which had questions about a rushed timeline and wanted more specifics on how the revenue would be spent.\nBut Monday, Mendenhall said she expects there's support on the council to pass the tax hike.\n\"The proposals the mayor has referenced are quite close to what the council has been discussing, and the clarity of her budget proposal and how the money would be administratively directed gives me confidence about moving ahead with our vote tomorrow,\" Mendenhall said, applauding Biskupski's administration for a \"collaborative process.\"\nConcerns from business leaders had also been quelled. Jason Mathis, executive director of the Downtown Alliance, said Monday that several business leaders met with Biskupski and Mendenhall the previous week to resolve concerns.\n\"We appreciate the dialogue and have committed to continuing to work with city leaders to make sure any new funds go to address critical needs,\" Mathis said.\nAs of Monday, about 68 percent of respondents to the city's Funding Our Future online survey supported the sales tax hike, according to Biskupski's spokesman, Matthew Rojas.\nBiskupski proposed the half-penny sales tax hike in her State of the City address in January, paired with an $87 million bond for transportation projects. The City Council is also expected later this year to decide whether to place the bond on the ballot this November. That bond would replace two bonds retiring in mid-2019 and add an estimated $5 per household per year.\nThe sales tax hike, which will collect about $33 million annually after its first partial year of collecting revenue, was made possible by the Utah Legislature, which included the tax hike option in the prison relocation bill passed in 2015 meant to offset the impact of the prison.\nAt the time, then-candidate Biskupski called the tax hike \"deplorable\" and accused former Mayor Ralph Becker of working a \"backroom\" deal with legislators to get it included in the bill. Since then, Biskupski has said the city must \"make good of that backroom deal.\"\n\"We truly have a rare opportunity to control our own destiny,\" Biskupski said Monday.\nIf adopted, the tax hike will \"place a great responsibility on me, the council and future leaders,\" she added. \"One which we take seriously.\"\nTo hold city leaders accountable, Biskupski said in the coming days the city will launch the first version of an online tracking dashboard so the public can watch the priorities the tax revenue would fund and any future changes.\nMendenhall has also previously discussed the possibility of solidifying some of the tax revenue for infrastructure projects by eventually bonding with the tax money, but Biskupski said she hasn't had a chance to meet with council members to discuss that possibility.\nThe Salt Lake City Council is expected to vote on the tax hike during its 7 p.m. meeting Tuesday at the Salt Lake City-County Building, 451 S. State.",

        "raw_content": "Head in the clouds but feet on the ground\nBernhard Paul, Circus Roncalli, Cologne, German Entrepreneur Special Award 2018\nWho doesn\u2019t know the magical world of Circus Roncalli? Starting from nothing, Circus Roncalli founder Bernhard Paul has been making people happy for more than 40 years with always new and imaginative acts and routines, successfully combining art and commerce. The German Entrepreneur Award\u2019s stellar panel of judges were enchanted by both the creativity and success of this business model, and have honoured the achievements of Bernard Paul with the German Entrepreneur Special Award 2018.\n220 plus seasonal staff\nA real circus from a bygone era is how Roncalli founder Bernhard Paul fulfilled a childhood dream in 1976. He was bitten by the circus bug as a boy when a travelling circus stopped off at his home village in Austria. Artistes in glittery costumes, elephants, zebras \u2013 young Bernard was fascinated. \u201cI fell in love especially with the clowns, antiheroes who did everything wrong but were still adored.\u201d One thing was sure: Bernhard Paul wanted to be a circus clown. After leaving school the Austrian went on to study design, had a mundane job as art director for a magazine, and collected everything that had anything to do with the world of the circus ring. \u201cI bought an old circus wagon to put my collection in.\u201d And before he knew it the then 28-year old had three wagons in his garden and had \u201cfounded my very own circus.\u201d\nI fell in love especially with the clowns, antiheroes who did everything wrong but were still adored.\nAs often the case with a lost labour of love, as years went by the circus of Paul Bernhard\u2019s childhood became \u201cthe most beautiful circus in the world. It was these very images in my head that were the key to success.\u201d Roncalli is \u201ca dream world that gives people a couple of hours of sheer happiness\u201d. The first shows, in cooperation with Andr\u00e9 Heller, were rapturously received by the public and the critics. However, a short time later the two artists fell out. \u201cThere I was saddled with debt having to start all over again from scratch.\u201d Paul muddled through, putting in appearances as a clown at events, but he never let go of his dream. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t easy, but then again if it had been easy anyone could have done it.\u201d Four years later Roncalli was reborn. Audiences were delighted with unforgettable acts like clown Pic, the legendary soap bubble artist. Since then the circus has gone from strength to strength: Roncalli continues to grow with ever new and creative acts and routines. When selecting the acts Paul relies on gut feeling. \u201cI look for things I marvel at myself.\u201d What\u2019s more, even today the 71-year old performs in the ring as a clown, getting to know first hand what it is that sweeps audiences away.\nEven while creative and magical dream worlds are his forte, Bernhard Paul lives in the here and now. \u201cYou have to stay up-to-date. You couldn\u2019t really do the acts of 1980 today.\u201d Today routines with holograms are popular, but there are no more classic animal acts. \u201cIn the old days animals used to be a part of it, but today they are an anachronism.\u201d And despite a nostalgic appearance the circus is very much up-to-date: catering doesn\u2019t use any plastic, the sausages are organic and food trucks offer the latest in street food. Meanwhile, the Roncalli world includes not just a circus but a variety show, markets, exhibitions and an events agency. In two years Paul wants to open the \u201cBoulevard of Broken Dreams\u201d in Cologne, an experience museum with old and beautiful things from his collection where visitors are transported to a bygone era. Head in the clouds but feet firmly on the ground \u2013 that\u2019s how it will be in future too. Paul\u2019s three children are also active in the ring and will continue to manage Roncalli.\nRoncalli Unternehmensgruppe\nT(0172) 829 39 80\nmedia@roncalli.de\nThe German Entrepreneur Award\u2019s experts were astonished at the energy and creativity with which the 71-year old reinvents the circus time and time again and with great economic success. They also praised the artist\u2019s social engagement: he supports a number of foundations and associations. For this truly artistic achievement the panel has honoured Bernhard Paul with the German Entrepreneur Special Award 2018. \u201cThe German Entrepreneur Award is crucial for fostering entrepreneurship\u201d, says the Roncalli founder. \u201cIt\u2019s a great accolade, not just for me but for the circus as a whole.\u201d",

At the Study in Portugal website you can find the essential information about our higher education and life in our country.\nIf you would like to experience an academic mobility period in Portugal, we should start by distinguishing partial mobility (only a part of the academic cycle) from full mobility (a complete cycle of studies in Portugal).\nFor a full mobility in a first cycle course (called \u201clicenciatura\u201d in Portugal), you must have your previous academic experience recognized.\nIf you are a national of a EU Member-state (or if you have been legally residing in Portugal for more than 2 years) the same conditions of enrolment in higher education will be applied to you that are applied to Portuguese citizens (Please note that Portuguese emigrants benefit from a special contingent).\nIf you are a third country national and would like to apply for a first cycle course (\u201clicenciatura\u201d) there is a specific regime for International Students. There are also other special regimes for Scholars from Portuguese Speaking African Countries (PALOP), diplomatic missions that are accredited in Portugal; and for those born in East-Timor and their children. Please keep in mind that you might need a visa to remain in Portugal.\nFor the second and third cycles (called, respectively, \"mestrado\u201d and \u201cdoutoramento\u201d in Portugal), as well as for partial mobility, we recommend that you contact directly the Portuguese higher education institution that you wish to enroll in.\nThe Erasmus+ Programme has been annually responsible for the arrival in Portugal of thousands of young European students. If you are interested in experiencing a Erasmus+ mobility in Portugal we recommend you to contact your Erasmus+ National Agency or your higher education institution.\nThere might also exist other mobility opportunities so we recommend that you look for information at you higher education institution.",

        "raw_content": "De Beers CEO Dismisses Uncertainty, Forecasts Growth\nReady to Lead Fragmented Industry, Mellier Tells Rapaport News\nRAPAPORT... Philippe Mellier, the newly appointed chief executive of De Beers, downplayed concerns that negative sentiment in global financial markets will impact diamond demand despite the recent declines in rough and polished diamond trading.\n\u201cI don\u2019t see the downturn,\u201d Mellier said in an interview with Rapaport News. \u201cWhat we are seeing is that retail demand for diamonds is very strong. The U.S. is still growing, which is certainly interesting and unexpected for us, while China and India are pulling unbelievably well.\u201d\nDe Beers, which is the largest diamond producer by value and second largest by volume, has kept its prices stable in the past three months, while rough dealer trading has come to a near standstill as buyers continue to push for deeper discounts. Goods sold by the Diamond Trading Company (DTC), De Beers sales and distribution unit, are being offered for resale on the secondary market at estimated discounts of around 15 percent, Rapaport Research has showed.\nIn addition, polished prices have fallen and the RapNet Diamond Index (RAPI\u2122) for 1.00-carat diamonds fell 4.5 percent in the third quarter and declined an additional 2 percent during the first three weeks of October.\nWhile Mellier (pictured), who joined De Beers in July 2011, recognized that there is uncertainty in the market due to the economic environment, he urged industry players to focus on the retail market, which, \u201cis not vanishing by any means,\u201d he said.\nRather, Mellier explained that the recent lull in trading, or \u201changover\u201d in the pipeline, resulted from normal seasonal factors. \u201cAs long as the retail market is there and is quite strong, I am not concerned,\u201d he said. \u201cAfter the recent Chinese Golden Week, and the coming Diwali festival, Christmas and the Chinese New Year, the pipeline will have to be refilled. So another good season is looming ahead.\u201d\nNew Price Plateau\nMellier noted that there is an undersupply of diamonds which spurred the sharp price increases in the first half of the year. De Beers reported that average prices rose 35 percent in the first six months of the year, and Mellier said he expects the uptrend has continued in the second half.\n\u201cWhen you are in a situation of short supply, especially when you have these growth markets pulling, I don\u2019t see any notable trend to bring prices down,\u201d he said. \u201cI strongly believe that the price levels of today are a new plateau, around which prices will be driven in the future. I don\u2019t expect that we will go back to the prices that we had before [this year], because of this imbalance of supply and demand.\u201d\nMost DTC sightholders and manufacturers who have spoken with Rapaport News in the past two months supported the De Beers policy to keep prices stable, even as many incur losses by having to sell the goods to the secondary market at a discount. They reasoned that a DTC-De Beers price decline would bring greater uncertainty to the market.\nProduction Forecast Intact\nSightholders expect lower levels of supply to the market in the fourth quarter, which, Mellier stressed, is not out of the ordinary. \u201cWe know that in a normal year, the first eight-to-nine months are pretty good because you refill the pipeline, while the final three months of the year are much weaker because the pipeline is generally full,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe fact that rough sales are going to come down in the backend of the year is a normal phenomenon.\u201d\nAs a result, he stressed that there is no reason to adjust the De Beers production plan for the remainder of the year. The company posted its strongest production quarter this year in the three months that ended September 30, with output rising 3 percent year on year to 9.305 million carats. Production in the first nine months of the year rose 1.5 percent to 24.839 million carats and is expected to reach around 34 million to 35 million carats for the full year.\nRapaport estimates that DTC rough sales rose 37 percent to approximately $5.63 billion in the first 10 months of the year, with two sights left in 2011. Growth was driven by the rough price increases experienced in the first six months while the volume of supply is estimated to have been the same as last year.\nReclaiming Leadership\nGiven his positive outlook, Mellier criticized elements in the polishing sector which he claimed were fueling a negative sentiment and urged the industry to operate in a more cohesive manner.\n\u201cIn the polished world you have a large number of players and many of them have different agendas,\u201d Mellier said. \u201cSo there is a little bit of irrationality today in the polished price because of internal concerns of individual companies, which has nothing to do with the retail market. Because the retail market is still there and as far as I know, retail prices are not going down, and may even be rising.\u201d\nHe stressed that the industry needs to behave in a more consistent way and added that De Beers was ready to work as an industry leader to achieve this goal.\nMellier negated the need to create a centralized body to drive common industry projects and goals, such as the proposed International Diamond Board (IDB), which was shelved about two years ago when ALROSA pulled out of the project. He reasoned that as diamonds compete against other luxury goods, people turn to companies, such as De Beers, which have experience and knowledge of the product, rather than boards, to move things forward.\n\u201cThe idea that De Beers created the industry and is still perceived by many as the name in the industry, means it is clearly in a position to analyze what\u2019s happening and set the tone of what is important for the industry,\u201d he said. \u201cClearly there is no intention to be the De Beers of a few years back. But there is a need to have someone that embraces the popular industry and says, you know, things are not bad\u2026. This is what we should be doing to support our industry.\u201d\n* Picture: Philippe Mellier, chief executive of De Beers (courtesy De Beers).\nTags: Avi Krawitz, De Beers, diamonds, Jewelry, Philippe Mellier, Rapaport, Rough Diamonds",

Addiction is the result of a condition where substance use of an individual becomes disruptive to his daily life. The nature of the disruption can be varied. It can affect the relationships in life, work and responsibilities that a person has in life. This is both psychological as well as biological. However, dependence is a bit different to addiction. It is when a person needs a certain dose of the substance for physical well-being. Without it, the body has a negative reaction. This article attempts to provide a basic understanding of the two terms and emphasize the difference between addiction and dependence.\nWhat does Addiction mean?\nAddiction, as mentioned above, is both a biological as well as a psychological condition which results in a very powerful urge on the part of the individual that cannot be resisted. Even though people tend to criticize addicted people as being weak in character due to their inability to control their urges, sometimes this is not the case. It can be a chronic, neurobiological disease which makes the person engage in various socially non-accepted forms of behaviour such as stealing just for the sake of satisfying his urge. This does not mean that a person reaches a state of unconsciousness, rather his urge is too powerful that other moral obligations become secondary. Addiction does not have an age limit though it usually starts at a younger age and continues thereafter.\nA person who is addicted displays compulsive behaviour of wanting more and more. This insatiable desire only grows where the person becomes numb to the negative consequences of addiction, to himself and others. This is not to say that the person is unaware of the damage that it causes, however he/she does not have the power to control it. This emergence and manifestation of the habit that turns into an addiction could be due to environmental, genetic and psycho-social factors.\nWhat does Dependence mean?\nUnlike addiction, which stresses the interplay of both biological and psychological influences for its development, dependence only refers to the physical state associated. It is a condition where drugs have to be taken for the physical well-being. Without the necessary dose, the individual might have a physical reaction which is negative. The reason for this is that since the body has become accustomed to the drug, the removal creates a peculiar state in the body that comes out as a negative reaction. Some such reactions are nausea, sweating, racing heart, diarrhea, etc. However, these reactions are not psychological. When a drug has been used for a longer period, the body begins to grow a tolerance towards the drug making it necessary to consume a higher dose for the reaction that was initially experienced. Withdrawal from drugs can also be a rather painful experience especially at the initial phase since there is a physical yearning for drugs.\nWhat is the difference between Addiction and Dependence?\n\u2022 Addiction refers to a condition where an individual cannot resist the powerful urge to consume the substance. This can be both biological as well as psychological.\n\u2022 However, dependence is the need for drugs for physical well-being.\n\u2022 In this sense, while addiction can also be psychological, dependence is merely physical.\n\u2022 The main difference is that while dependence has the intention of improving the condition of the individual, in addiction it is the contrary where the individual only reaches a higher level of self-harm.\nDifference Between Abuse and Addiction Difference Between Gastric and Duodenal Ulcers Difference Between Acute and Chronic Gastritis Difference Between Cold Sore and Canker Sore Difference Between Fibromyalgia and Polymyalgia\nFiled Under: Diseases Tagged With: Addiction, addiction and dependence, Addiction and Dependence Differences, addiction definition, addiction meaning, addiction means, dependence, dependence definition, dependence meaning, dependence means\nDifference Between TreeSet and TreeMap\nDifference Between Sino and Pero\nDifference Between Testimony and Testimonial\nDifference Between Supermarket and Hypermarket",

        "title": "Crohn's disease and inflammatory bowel disease - Nutrakarma Digestive Health",
        "raw_content": "Named after Dr Burrill Bernard Crohn, the physician who first described the condition in 1932, Crohn\u2019s disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder \u2013 a broad title used to describe any condition which involves the intestines becoming swollen, inflamed and ulcerated. Ulcerative colitis is another example of an Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).\nCrohn\u2019s, in particular, is an unpleasant and painful condition, which results in inflammation of all the layers of the lining of the bowel. It causes ulcerations (breaks in the lining) of the small and large intestines (most commonly the ileum), but any area of the gastrointestinal tract can be affected, from the mouth to the anus. It most commonly presents during adolescence and early adulthood, but it has also been known to start in childhood and later in life. Men and women seem to be equally affected, but parents, siblings and children of people with Crohn\u2019s disease are 3 \u2013 20 times more likely to develop the disease.\nApproximately 150,000 people suffer from either Crohn\u2019s or colitis in the UK. There are more than 5,000 new cases diagnosed each year and research has shown that the number of people with Crohn\u2019s is rising. While there has been a significant amount of research into the condition, its precise causes remain unknown \u2013 although many have been postulated, including viruses, bacteria, the immune system, genetics, diet and lifestyle. For example, it is estimated that smokers are 3 times more likely to develop Crohn\u2019s disease than non-smokers.\nCommon signs of Crohn\u2019s disease\nSelf-diagnosis can be detrimental to health and so it is always best to seek the advice of a qualified health practitioner if you are concerned, or suspect that you have Crohn\u2019s disease. However, below we discuss some of the more common signs and symptoms of the condition.\nAbdominal pain and diarrhoea are experienced by almost all sufferers. Having said that, of course not everyone who experiences these symptoms will necessarily have Crohn\u2019s \u2013 they are associated with many other conditions of varying seriousness and severity, which is why it is important to seek a professional diagnosis.\nThe reason for the abdominal pain and (sometimes bloody) diarrhoea in the case of confirmed Crohn\u2019s is that the swelling and inflammation associated with the disease extends deep into the lining of the bowel and can cause the intestines to empty frequently. Other common symptoms include vomiting, fatigue and weight loss.\nAlthough less common, Crohn\u2019s disease has also been known to cause complications outside of the gastrointestinal tract, such as skin irritation, arthritis and inflammation of the eye.\nOnce a person has the disease, it tends to fluctuate between periods of inactivity (remission) and activity (relapse). Treatment revolves primarily around attempting to manage symptoms, with the aim of promoting longer periods of remission and preventing flare-ups.\nCrohn\u2019s disease and diet\nWhile there is no known cure, Crohn\u2019s disease tends to respond very well to positive dietary adjustments and tailored nutritional programmes (including supplementation). This, along with the fact that it is more prevalent in the Western world, would seem to indicate a strong dietary link.\nIt is also important to note that most people with Crohn\u2019s disease are allergic or intolerant to certain foods, most commonly gluten (the protein found in wheat, rye, oats and barley) and dairy. So avoiding such allergens, as well as intestinal irritants like extracted bran, can be particularly helpful.\nSufferers also tend to have higher levels of homocysteine \u2013 a naturally-occurring amino acid, which is found in the blood and is linked to a range of diseases. If levels are too high, it can have an adverse effect on a critical biological process called methylation.\nThe brain and body use this process to keep the body\u2019s biochemistry in balance. Where this delicate balance is disrupted, the net result can be deterioration of health, including the development, or aggravation, of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases such as Crohn\u2019s and ulcerative colitis, as well as other conditions such as arterial damage, anaemia, coeliac disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression and more.\nAs such, an alkalising diet packed with natural whole foods (such as fruit, vegetables and green leafy plants) are generally considered to be beneficial for Crohn\u2019s sufferers. Some of the most important nutrients to look out for and proactively include in the diet where high homocysteine levels are suspected are: folate, vitamins B2, B6 and B12, zinc and Trimethylglycine (TMG or betaine).\nAt the same time, it is a good idea to avoid foods, beverages or daily activities which could be contributing to acidity in the body (and therefore higher homocysteine levels). For instance, saturated fat, refined carbohydrates, alcohol, sugar, caffeine, dairy, red meat, processed foods and other acid-forming foods. In terms of lifestyle factors, exercise regularly if your health allows, stop smoking, avoid toxins wherever possible and try to minimise your stress.\nAnd don\u2019t forget to spare a thought for the amount of beneficial bacteria inside your vulnerable and inflamed gut \u2013 the levels of these \u2018good guys\u2019 (essential for digestion and immunity) are likely to be very low. It is possible to support a healthy balance of friendly and harmful gut flora by increasing your intake of probiotic foods (such as sauerkraut, tempeh, miso and tofu) or taking a high-strength, multi-strain probiotic supplement.\nOther nutrients which may help to calm inflammation and soothe the gut lining include Omega 3 fats, curcumin and the amino acid glutamine.\nThe fibre content of a food also lowers the GL, so make a conscious effort to include quality sources of dietary fibre in your diet. When you eat carbohydrate foods with a low GL with quality protein foods, you help to stabilise your blood sugar level even more.\nAs a final tip for keeping those blood sugar levels stable, it is also better to \u2018graze\u2019 throughout the day (eating little and often), than to \u2018gorge\u2019 on large meals. Opt for natural, whole foods \u2013 preferably organic.\nOne area that most people don\u2019t think about is the impact that our emotions have on physical problems, in this case on Crohn\u2019s Disease.\nIn her book, \u201cYou Can Heal Your Life,\u201d Louise Hay suggests that behind Crohn\u2019s disease, there may be a deep sense of fear and worry of not being \u201cgood enough.\u201d This deeply rooted pattern was likely put there early in childhood by a parent who tried to motivate a child by telling them they were not good enough.\nAlso, those who suffer from Crohn\u2019s disease may tend to be a little perfectionist in their thinking and attitudes, or very determined and focused on their goals.\nSome affirmations that can help:\nI digest life with ease.\nI know all I am is safe within my body.\nL-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the bloodstream and it provides various benefits for gut health such as improving digestion, healing the intestines, gut wall integrity. This is a pure amino acid powder, used by people with various forms of digestive and intestinal problems (such as leaky gut syndrome and food intolerance reactions)\nIt has been shown that those with moderate to severe cases of Crohn\u2019s disease have reduced levels of glutamine.",

        "title": "Cannabis Continues to Go Mainstream With Marijuana New Products",
        "raw_content": "Marijuana Continues to Go Mainstream With New Products\nJanuary 15, 2017 January 13, 2017 cannabidiol, consumption, culture, in the know, industry matters, medicinal use\nThe rising popularly of cannabis products continues along with legalization of both medical and recreational marijuana across the country.\nMainstream media is starting to catch the wave. Many articles have appeared about the movement into products that are related to cannabis but aren\u2019t associated with \u201cweed\u201d the way so many older Americans remember it.\nIncluded are luxury items for high-end customers, as well as a staggering amount of products that use cannabis and marijuana derivatives.\nIn short, marijuana has come a long way from being associated with aging hippies and Grateful Dead concerts.\nPublic Perception Vs. Reality\nEven how marijuana gets sold is changing. Adam Beirman, the CEO and co-creator of California marijuana business management firm MedMen, told the International Business Times that public perception must catch up to a new era.\n\u201cIf you look at what traditionally people think of when they think of a pot shop, they\u2019re thinking of a place with Bob Marley posters in it,\u201d Beirman said. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing mainstream about that. That\u2019s not how you sell anything, but for some reason, that\u2019s how people think you sell pot. That\u2019s got to evolve.\u201d\nCertainly the demand has now come out into the open. According to a U.S. Department of Health survey, 22 million Americans said they use marijuana on a monthly basis. Another 37 million say they partake at least once a year.\nChanging Landscape of Marijuana\nLegalization has led to a boom in how marijuana products are sold. Online dispensaries already offer a huge amount of choices for consumers interested in trying cannabis-related products. They include:\nEdibles. Many people prefer eating or drinking cannabis-infused products rather than the \u201ctraditional\u201d method of smoking marijuana. Edibles included baked goods, sugar, chocolate, suckers and cookies, to name just a few of the many choices.\nVaporizers. Perhaps best known as smokeless way for cigarette smokers to enjoy tobacco, vaporizers now have moved into marijuana in a big way. They come in a variety of sizes and provide a smokeless way to enjoy cannabis at home or anywhere marijuana can be legally used.\nCBD products. This growing area of the marijuana industry involves products that use cannibidiol (CBD) extracted from marijuana. These products provide the health benefits of marijuana without the active ingredient that causes the \u201chigh.\u201d They include lotions and oils, many of which people use for pain management. The number of CBD products continue to grow. There is even CBD-infused water available.\nTopicals and Tinctures. Associated mostly with pain relief, this area includes marijuana-infused products. For example, Whoopi Goldberg has her own line of products that includes a tincture that reduces the pain and discomfort women get with menstrual cramps.\nThese represent just some of the products available as marijuana goes mainstream. With millions of more people now living in states where recreational marijuana is legal (including California and Massachusetts), expect the variety of products available to continue to grow.\n\u2190 Phil Jackson Says NBA Needs New Rules on Marijuana\nNo Connection Between Cannabis and Early-Onset Strokes \u2192\nArtisanal Cannabis Products Now Available Online\nWine and Weed: Oregon, California Farmers Look To Combine The Two",

        "raw_content": "Last week\u2019s political turmoil has increased the likelihood of a change in government and major changes in taxation arrangements for investors. Significant possible changes are stopping cash refunds of franking credits for pension funds and low-income non-pensioner taxpayers, abolishing negative gearing tax refunds for future purchasers of existing properties and a 50 per cent increase in the capital gains tax liability when newly purchased assets are sold.\nNegative gearing and investment in residential property is widely used as a savings strategy to reduce current income tax bills and receive preferentially taxed future capital gains. Capital gains is payable only when the asset is sold but at that time the gains accumulated over many years are subject to tax in one year. This wasn\u2019t as important an issue in earlier years when only gains above the rate of inflation were subject to tax.\nThis reduces the amount of gains subject to tax in the one tax year helping to reduce the applicable tax rate. The current capital gains tax rules subject only 50 per cent of the gains on assets owned 12 months or more to tax and provide many investors with inflation protection.\nUnder the 50 per cent exemption, if the total gain is 4 per cent annually and inflation 2 per cent a year, only the real capital gain is subject to tax. If 75 per cent of the gain is taxable, only 1 per cent annually is exempt from tax meaning part of the gain required tomatch inflation is taxed.\nIf enacted into legislation, this change will add to pressures facing property markets. New investors won\u2019t receive negative gearing tax benefits from purchasing existing properties and will face higher capital gains tax on the new rules. If they can\u2019t be certain the gains required to match inflation will be tax-free, their incentive to make long term property and other investments will be reduced.\nEven when negative gearing benefits are available on newly constructed property, the higher capital gains liabilities will still apply. The tougher tax arrangements for new property investors were developed when the property markets were much stronger than today. There\u2019s always the possibility the proposals could be amended before the rules are changed but property investors need to be aware of the possibility of major change.\nSimilarly, low-income non-pensioner taxpayers and pension fund investors face the prospect of substantially lower returns from investing in franked, dividend shares. One option is to consider alternative investments including trusts where income is distributed without any company tax deducted. Now is the time to consider possible future action to minimise the adverse impact of proposed tax changes.",

Warsaw is also suggesting that Britain should be allowed to reconsider its decision to leave, so-called Brexit.\nPoland and countries in the region see a need for a new European treaty that would give more autonomy to EU member states, arguing that it would make membership more attractive and prevent other nations from leaving. Western countries believe such fundamental change is not necessary.\nThe Visegrad Group nations are not participating in the EU's program of accepting refugees, but some of them, like Hungary, were overwhelmed last year as migrants fleeing war and poverty flooded across borders to reach wealthy EU nations.\nHungary's Prime Minister Victor Orban appealed for help in protecting the nation's borders and linked lack of general security to some of the illegal migrants. He received support from Slovakia's Prime Minister Robert Fico.\nPoland's Prime Minister Beata Szydlo said the EU should be based on things that unite and should seek joint solutions to problems like security and the massive wave of migrants.\nThe Visegrad Group is a platform for hammering out regional and European policies by its member states.",

        "raw_content": "Who\u2019s trying to get into the attic? Nocturnal\u2026\nWho\u2019s trying to get into the attic? Nocturnal visitor has homeowner baffled\nGary Reyes/ Bay Area News Group Archives\nEarly morning knocking on roofs and eaves is usually a sign of an animal coming or going.\nDEAR JOAN: Early one morning at 2:45, I was awaken by what sounded like a bird tapping on the side of the house near the roof. It was about five loud taps.\nThis has happened in the past a couple of times. We have had roof rats, but they will scratch, not tap. At least I don\u2019t think it was a roof rat. Or was it?\nDo you have any idea what bird would be up so early in the morning, tapping like a woodpecker? I didn\u2019t hear it the next morning.\nPeggy, Alamo\nDEAR PEGGY: Your story reminds me of when I was much younger and read Stephen King\u2019s \u201cSalem\u2019s Lot.\u201d In it, he wrote that vampires can\u2019t enter your home unless you invite them in. I was so frightened that I started sleeping with a crucifix under my pillow, just in case a vampire knocked on my bedroom window in the middle of the night and I sleepily said, \u201cCome in.\u201d\nThe good news is, I don\u2019t think you have a vampire asking for an invitation. At that time of the morning, you probably don\u2019t have a woodpecker, either. The only birds awake at that time would be owls and night herons.\nI can\u2019t tell you precisely what animal is making the noise, but I have some possibilities.\nThe most likely is that a creature is trying to get into your attic or already has and was returning home after a night of food searching. The noise might have been made by a raccoon or rat. You also might have bats roosting in the eaves.\nThe cause also might not be related to wildlife, but to a tree limb growing too close to the house.\nWhatever the noise, a roof inspection and a check of the attic is called for.\nGet more pet and wildlife news delivered to your inbox for free on weekdays.\nDEAR JOAN: I have another explanation for why your reader isn\u2019t hearing birdsong like when they moved into their house 25 years ago. It\u2019s possible that their hearing has deteriorated over the years; I know mine has.\nThe only birds I can hear now are the occasional crow that shows up around our house as well as mourning doves and scrub jays; and this year even the jays have gone quiet.\nIf I\u2019m outside and it\u2019s very quiet I can sometimes hear house sparrows.\nAnother thought is, for some reason, the birds have gotten a lot quieter. We have had mockingbirds that have frequented our yard for the last few years and none of them \u2014 and I mean none \u2014 seem to call anymore. It\u2019s like they\u2019ve gone mute.\nThis year we have at least three that I see chasing each other every day and none of them make a sound.\nBruce Onken, Fremont\nDEAR BRUCE: Sometimes the answer is so simple that it\u2019s easily overlooked \u2014 or not heard. I hadn\u2019t considered hearing loss, but unfortunately, that can be an issue as we age.\nAs for the quiet birds, they are much more vocal in the spring, when they are attracting mates and driving away intruders. As spring gives way to summer and fall, they might still sing, just not as loudly or incessantly.\nThere is some research that shows birds and other wildlife become silent when under stress caused by habitat threats, lack of food and air pollution from manufactured sources and natural (wildfires). I hope that\u2019s not the case.\nJoan Morris is the pets & wildlife columnist for the Bay Area News Group. She also writes about gardening.\nCritter corner: One man\u2019s trash is a dog\u2019s treasure\nMy dog is constantly getting into the trash can. Our household is busy with people coming and going and we can\u2019t seem to get on the same page about putting the trash out of reach before leaving. Any tips?",

        "raw_content": "Phoenix Solar engineering solar plants in Thailand with a peak power totalling 36 megawatts\nProject financing having become effective now provides comprehensive cover for project already under construction\nProject completion scheduled for the current year\nSulzemoos 30 April 2013 / Solarco Co Ltd signed a contract on 12 April 2013 with a banking consortium to finance the construction of solar power plants in Thailand totalling 72 Megawatt peak (MWp). Phoenix Solar Pte Ltd, the Singapore-based subsidiary of Phoenix Solar AG (ISIN DE000A0BVU93), won the contract to design 36MWp of these power plants including the supply of solar modules, inverters and cables. The construction work for this large project has already begun, and Phoenix Solar\u2019s fulfilment of the conditions precedent to offshore financing now provides the necessary financial security to complete the project.\nThe financing consortium comprises the Asian Development Bank, Kasikorn Bank and Bangkok Bank.\nSolarco Co. Ltd is a joint venture between Yanhee Solar Power Company Limited (Yanhee) and Electricity Generating Public Company Limited (EGCO). The JV is led by EGCO, an energy utility listed on Bangkok\u2019s stock exchange and Thailand\u2019s first independent power producer (IPP). EGCO currently owns and operates over 64MWac of solar projects, and plans to expand its renewable energy portfolio to 300MWac by 2015. Yanhee is also an experienced solar power plant developer. It owns the majority stake in an SPV where Phoenix Solar and local partner Process Engineering Services Co. Ltd (PESCO), designed and constructed two solar power plants totalling 16MWp. The projects were connected to Thailand\u2019s grid in August 2012.\nPhoenix Solar Singapore is again collaborating closely on this major project with PESCO, a Thai company with over 27 years of experience in the M&E sector. Phoenix Solar is responsible for planning the three power plants and for delivering solar modules, inverters and cables, while PESCO supplies the substructure and AC components, and carries out the building activities on site.\nThe contractual scope comprises the turnkey design, engineering, planning, procurement and the construction of three solar power plants of 12MWp each in the provinces of Suphanburi and Nakhonpathom. Upon completion, around 144\u2019000 crystalline REC Solar solar modules and 36 SMA central inverters will generate approximately 56\u2019000 megawatt hours of solar electricity per year. This is enough clean electricity to supply some 23\u2019000 Thai households.\nMr Pongsapat Theppratuangthip, Senior Vice President - Domestic Business Development at EGCO commented, \u201cWe needed to rely on an experienced team for this project. Both Phoenix Solar and PESCO enjoy an excellent reputation here in Thailand, blending a solid combination of international design and engineering expertise with local construction and management know-how.\u201d\n\u201cIt is rewarding to see the confidence of investors and lenders in the Phoenix-PESCO team to develop durable and high performance solar power plants\u201d, said Christophe Inglin, Managing Director of Phoenix Solar Pte Ltd.\n\u201cA major focus of our operations is currently on the strong growth regions in Asia and the US\u201d, said Dr. Bernd K\u00f6hler, Chief Executive Officer of the parent company Phoenix Solar AG. \u201cThe Solarco project is testament to the strategic direction we have taken and lays an important foundation for our further growth in this market\u201d.\nAbout Phoenix Solar AG\nPhoenix Solar AG is an international photovoltaic system integrator headquartered in Sulzemoos near Munich.

        "title": "Author Weike Wang brings combustible formula to Literati",
        "raw_content": "Author Weike Wang brings combustible formula to Literati\nIn her masterful debut novel, Chemistry, Weike Wang offers a humorous, moving tale of a young PHD candidate learning to live life on her own terms. The book will appeal not only to academics, of which Ann Arbor has been ranked as having more per capita than any other city in the country, but also to anyone navigating the inevitable ambiguities of life. Wang challenges common narratives regarding failure and success, looking hard at the sacrifices necessary for progress, both in science and relationships. Chemistry is a ferociously funny and nuanced book about inquiry. Wang earned her undergraduate degree in chemistry and her doctorate in public health at Harvard University before completing her Master\u2019s in Fine Arts from Boston University. Current caught up with her ahead of her upcoming reading and conversation with author Lillian Li at Literati Bookstore in Ann Arbor.\nYour endearing unnamed narrator needs to understand her feelings to figure out what she wants, but she doesn\u2019t know how. The structure of the book reflects this confusion; when she gets close to difficult emotions, she switches topics. The subjects are related metaphorically, but as we move through the book and she gains self-awareness, her narration becomes more ordered. Could you talk about the novel\u2019s episodic structure?\nFor some reason, I can\u2019t write chapter to chapter. I keep everything in my head and then I write my way around it. I have a pool of ideas and I\u2019m writing within that pool. I just grow from a center bubble, let the sentences build on each other and see where that takes me. The definition of a novel is not really length anymore. It\u2019s a little more about how much meat is this novel trying to take on? How many ideas is it trying to wrap around? How in depth does it go in certain aspects?\nAfter the narrator dramatically ends her pursuit of a PHD, she begins tutoring. Her interactions with her students contrast nicely to her own academic and familial educational experiences. She begins by telling them to ask her anything \u2013 she\u2019s encouraging them to pursue their interests and curiosities. Can you talk about the joy of discovery she shares with her students?\nAt the PHD level, it\u2019s very difficult to talk to scientists who are on the cutting edge because they\u2019re not interested in explaining anything. She didn\u2019t like that experience. What she loves about knowing science is that she can help students who are struggling with it at the beginning and can\u2019t find a way in. She likes showing her appreciation but she might not necessarily be the one who will \u201cchange the world.\u201d We think about scientists changing the world, but the vast amount of people who change the world are teachers. I studied with Nobel Laureates, but they\u2019re the worst teachers because they don\u2019t care about young students. If they have to explain it twice, they get annoyed. My college and graduate school colored how I felt about it after a while. It was a struggle to figure that out.\nOne of the threads in the story is the narrator\u2019s struggle to determine her relationship with the field of science\u2026\nJust because you like science doesn\u2019t mean you should do science. A lot of factors influence a person\u2019s decision to do anything. She\u2019s an accomplished woman in STEM; buckling under that pressure is hard. We\u2019re always encouraging women to go into STEM, it\u2019s almost to their detriment that we encourage them. I don\u2019t know actually how to fix that problem, or if it can be fixed, or if it\u2019s even a problem, but I see so many girls crumble under guilt that they have to stay in a field because they\u2019re representing a huge population. That\u2019s how I feel sometimes about being an Asian-American writer. I feel like there are certain things I have to write about or certain characters I have to present because great writers like Jennifer Egan, they\u2019re not going to write an Asian-American protagonist. They could, but it\u2019s not really what they\u2019re obsessed about. With this narrator, I was trying to convey so many different threads, but also the burden from many aspects. Once you\u2019re aware of the burden, you\u2019re much more able to deal with it, and in a more productive way than sheer anger or denial.\nThe information about the destructive potential of science, alongside its healing potential, speaks well to paradox. Can you talk more about this?\nI just got tired of the ruse of doctors and scientists: \u201cWe\u2019re changing the world.\u201d There\u2019s so much behind that phrase, and I think the history of science helped me with that. Every scientist has shame attached to his or her work, because to get to wherever you need to go, you need to step on a lot of toes. It\u2019s not as pristine and objective and clean as most people think it is. If you meet a doctor, they say they\u2019re saving lives. They probably kill a few to do that. It\u2019s like a negative sum game. I wanted to make that part of the message. If you\u2019re going to go into science and get a PHD, you have to know what is expected of you. There can\u2019t be any sugarcoating with that. Science is good, the work itself is good, but sometimes, when you mix that with people, it might not always be so good. Nobel invented TNT. I don\u2019t think he thought it was going to be used to kill people. I think he was purely pursuing the knowledge. So you reward the knowledge, but then, what happens when people use it for bad things?\nThe paradox you describe is also reflected in our relationship with new technologies. If we don\u2019t address the character of a technology or if, as a community, we don\u2019t consider what the goal of using the technology will be, we\u2019re just throwing it out there. Maybe with time we\u2019ll learn how to use it, but as you said, these things can be used in multiple ways, for good and bad, simultaneously.\nI find that scientists are really detached from the philosophical and moral impact of their work because they\u2019re on the other end of the spectrum. I think it comes from a lack of communication. When I was doing chemistry and English, those departments didn\u2019t talk to each other. It literally takes 20 minutes to go from one department to another, for a reason, I think. The people making sense of technology are in the English department; the people doing it are 20 minutes away. As the future hurls forward, everybody specializes. The more specialized, the farther you get from this core understanding or liberal education spaces where you know a bit about everything.\n7pm, Tuesday, May 1st\n124 E.

        "raw_content": "by 8rc4e | Aug 23, 2018 | Construcciones Alcoy, Reformas Alcoy, Uncategorized, Vivienda ecol\u00f3gica | 0 comments\nEco-homes are fashionable and are one of the most current trends that a construction company in Alcoy can develop. One of the objectives of green houses is to reduce their environmental impact. In addition, its construction uses natural materials or those that provide a lesser impact on nature.\nThere are many aspects that must be taken into account so that a home can be classified as ecological, such as its location, the construction materials that will be used, toxicity, aesthetics, biodiversity, durability and also the dynamic relationship between inhabitant and home.\nThe benefits of this type of housing are causing many people to seek the services of a company specialized in construction, which has a good group of professionals who can advise on the options that must be taken into account with green housing.\nTips for the construction of an ecological house\nThe first advice is to have a properly planned house projection. Also, a home like this does not have to be expensive, but it can be very stylish. Many people choose a minimalist design for housing, not only for the decorative aspect but also because costs can be reduced with this trend. Low impact ecological paints can also be used.\nOther aspects that should be borne in mind when planning the construction of a home, is to ensure that it is sustainable. Systems that have the capacity to use clean energies for the operation of the house must be provided to the home. Thanks to this, CO\u00b2 emissions can be reduced and respect the environment more.\nNor should we forget the issue of masonry, with the choice of materials, something of great importance to build a house with low environmental impact. It is necessary to avoid those materials that may contain chlorine, heavy metals, ammonia, etc. In addition, if possible, the use of wood instead of steel is recommended for the columns.",

        "raw_content": "Educate the kids are aware that some elements of traditional \u2018African Culture\u2019 may be a threat to the progress of women\u2019s rights in Africa and that sexual discrimination remains widespread. Customary law, for instance, gives black women the status of minors and excludes them from rights regarding children and property.\n\u201cWe are all aware that despite achievements and progress made, African women face major challenges and obstacles,\u201d says Dr. Farkhonda Hassan, chair of the UN Economic Commission for Africa\u2019s Committee on Women and Development. For example, she says, the primary development policies in many countries, known as poverty reduction strategies, still do not take into account differences in income and power between men and women, hampering efforts to finance programmes that reduce inequality. In addition, she says, the majority of African women are still denied education and employment, and have limited opportunities in trade, industry and government.\nNowadays women, and black women in particular, are still economically disadvantaged: they make up a disproportionate section of the unemployed and tend to occupy more of the lower-paid jobs, as domestic and farm labourers. And they often earn less than men for the same tasks. Interestingly in writing the post for this web site Educate the kids looked at what proportion of woman are employed as teachers, and found that the ratio was 10 female teachers and 8 male. Two of these women are employed in management roles, as our experience is that African women are talented and hard working, so whilst we may not have been positively discriminating one way or the other, equal opportunities have enabled local women to find good employment at equal pay.\nOver the years Jolaurabi school has educated thousands of girls and young women. We have sometimes been questioned by sponsors in the UK, why we bother to sponsor many of the young girls who end up \u201cjust being mothers?\u201d. Our answer is a simple one \u2026\u2026A belief that all people, irrespective of gender deserve an equal opportunity and further, that motherhood is a precious role and if a young woman finds herself in the position of becoming a full time mother, it is better that she is an educated mother, she will encourage and better prepare the next generation.\nEducate the kids was founded by a strong woman and a large part of our volunteer team who regularly visit Kenya to help with teacher training etc at the school are female. Over the years we have certainly faced some opposition, but we hope that some of the cultural barriers are being overcome and that the new generations being educated at Jolauarbi will recognise the benefits of an equal society.\nIn Memory of Sada Nzai",

Eric Premack, a Minneapolis native, will be here November 21 at 3 pm in the North Klas room at the Anderson Center on the Hamline University campus.\nCalifornia is the largest state in the nation. What happens there is often a harbinger for what will likely spread further. Premack has lived and worked there for more than 20 years; he runs one of the largest charter school development organizations in the country. He\u2019s become a trusted adviser to the state board and the governor there.\nEric will have great insights into what\u2019s coming next\u2014with the advent of the Common Core, the next wave of efforts to close achievement gaps, the surge in schools using digital electronics, the growing tension between the forces of centralization and the aspirations for more local control. He\u2019s sure to have something to say about the standoff brewing between federal orthodoxy on waivers and states\u2019 desires for more diverse strategies. That tension could also play out soon in Minnesota.\nWhile Premack will make some remarks to get us going, we\u2019re serious about this being a discussion \u2013 no long lectures, no boring panels. There\u2019s no charge, but we need to know who\u2019s coming, so let us know by confirming with Andrew Rockway (andrew@educationevolving.org).

        "title": "Biology Teachers Focus Debate on Values, Issues - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Biology Teachers Focus Debate on Values, Issues\nBy Carla Carlson Special to Education Week\nu Las Vegas--They spoke surprisingly little of a lack of federal funds and adequate resources for teachers.\nInstead, the nearly 1,200 biology teachers who gathered here last week for the national convention of the National Association of Biology Teachers (nabt) discussed the scientific foundations of topics that have raised heated moral debates with which they must deal as teachers and scientists.\nAt the top of the list are abortion and the debate between creationists and evolutionists.\n\"Biologists haven't prepared the public to deal with biological facts,\" said Garrett Hardin, professor emeritus of human ecology at the University of California at Santa Barbara and chief executive officer of the Environmental Fund. \"We can't solve ethical problems without understanding the biological framework in which students' thinking should take place.\"\nTeachers Responsible\nTeachers are responsible for helping students understand the debate between those who view divine creation as a scientific theory and those who believe the theory of evolution based on Darwin's research, Mr. Hardin said. Teachers can provide students with a basis for making decisions--without debating social issues--by simply teaching the biological life cycle, he added.\nThere is a simple answer to the question of when life begins, Hardin said, whether the question comes up at a Congressional hearing or in a classroom.\n\"Life never begins; it comes through the passing on of cells,\" he explained. \"It did begin once, about three and one-half billion years ago, but the very appearance of life destroys the fact that life will ever begin again.\n\"There is no right or wrong,\" he continued. \"It is a definitional question. There is only agreement or disagreement.\"\nMr. Hardin advised biology teachers not to avoid religion. \"I recommend that you read the Bible,\" he said. \"It will astound your opponents. Most of them do not read the Bible, they merely revere it.\"\nBiologists at the meeting heard colleagues outline several approaches to treating the issue of creationism versus evolutionism in the classroom. None of the speakers advocated ignoring the claims made by the creationists.\nFrank R. Zindler, associate professor of biology at Fulton-Montgomery Community College in Johnstown, N.Y., said he requires his students to read material distributed by the Institute for Creation Research, a California-based group spearheading the drive to enforce the teaching of creation theory in the nation's schools, as well as a text describing evolution and natural selection. One of the reference books he suggests is the Bible.\nTo complete the course, students are asked to write a critique of the theories of evolution and divine creation. The exercise encourages students to reason logically, Zindler explained.\nDiscussions about organizing symposia on the issue stressed the need to \"mantain the integrity of science\" and to conduct such sessions on a educational basis rather than as a debate. Jerry Resnick, nabt president and assistant principal of Sheepshead Bay High School in Brooklyn, N.Y., recommended that teachers subscribe to the free mailing list of material distributed by the Institute for Creation Research to keep abreast of creationist arguments. Its address is 2100 Greenfield Dr., El Cajon, Calif., 92021.",

        "raw_content": "A Union County, N.J., judge has ruled that the Hillside Board of Education must turn over to the state data on its racially imbalanced elementary schools so that a desegregation plan can be implemented by the beginning of next school year.\nSuperior Court Judge William DiBuono issued the order on Jan. 28. The state, meanwhile, was ordered to hire a consultant, at the school district's expense, to prepare a desegregation plan.\nEarlier this month, state attorneys asked Judge DiBuono to force the city's school board to choose one of three desegregation plans that had been approved by Saul Cooperman, the state commissioner of education.\n\"Our position has been that Mr. Cooperman's plans are not comprehensive and provide us with no information on which kids to move, how many should be moved, and where they should be moved,\" said Anthony Avella, superintendent of the 34,000-student district.\nMeanwhile, lawyers for the school district have filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia alleging that the state has illegally used federal funds in waging its battle to force the district to accept one of the desegregation plans.\nThe state board of education ordered the Hillside school board to implement a desegregation plan after finding the school illegally segregated under state law in 1973. Approximately 65 percent of the district's elementary-school students and 70 percent of its high-school students are black.\nIn a related development, a New Jersey appeals court also ruled on Jan. 28 that the state commissioner of education has the right to order school districts to design and implement desegregation plans, and if the districts fail to comply, he has the right to impose a plan of his own.\nThat decision came in a lawsuit involving the Linden, N.J., Board of Education.\nThe city of New York \"runs separate vocational high schools for girls and boys\" and \"trains girls for low-paying, dead-end jobs,\" according to a recent study conducted by a local coalition of educators and civil-rights advocates.\nThe 55-page study, conducted by the Full Access and Rights to Education Coalition, alleged that \"however vast and comprehensive [the city's] vocational-education system may be, it fails to provide young women with the services, opportunities, and benefits it provides young men.\"\nFor example, the study noted that women made up only 35 percent of the city's vocational-technical schools' enrollment, although they make up more than half of the school district's total enrollment.\nIn addition, it said that most of the female vocational high-school students are concentrated in five schools where \"'traditional' female occupational\" subjects such as cosmetology, health assisting, and secretarial skills are emphasized.\nThe study contended that the sex segregation \"is not a result of mere differences in student choice,\" but rather \"the product of a wide range of institutional policies and practices--both official and unofficial--which promote traditional occupational stereotypes and which channel students on the basis of their sex into distinct career paths.\"\nThe Reidsville, N.C., board of education has approved a plan to allow 4th- and 5th-grade students to leave campus for one period each week to take a Bible class aboard a bus provided by a local religious group.\nUntil a Reidsville lawyer, William F. Horsley, protested, Bible instruction had been permitted for 60 years in all of the town's schools. It is still permitted in the junior and senior high schools, Mr. Horsley said.\nA teacher whose salary was paid by a local group of religious fundamentalists, the Committee for Bible in Public Schools, taught the classes.\nMr. Horsley said he advised the school board that the policy was unconstitutional, the board's lawyer agreed, and the board voted to change the policy. The Bible-study classes are still offered as an elective for students in the junior and senior high schools.\nGeorge H. Gardner, executive director of the North Carolina Civil Liberties Union, said his group is \"very interested\" in filing suit to stop the classes at the secondary level, but is looking for a person willing to participate in the suit.\nThe Rev. Everett Sileven, pastor of the Faith Baptist Church and Superintendent of the Faith Christian School in Louisville, Neb., has completed his four-month jail sentence for refusing to close his Christian school in defiance of court orders.\nMr. Sileven, who, according to his wife, has temporarily left Nebraska, objects to state education-department requirements that he use state-certified teachers in his school, and has been fighting the state for several years over the issue.\nHis case is one of several continuing conflicts between the state and church-affiliated private schools.\nThe school has been closed since Oct. 22, and its students have taken instruction at home.\nStates News Roundup\nVolume 2, Issue 20, February 9, 1983, p 2\nCopyright 1983, Editorial Projects in Education\nGov. Richard F. Celeste of Ohio last week ordered a $190-million cut in state aid to elementary and secondary schools to help balance the state's fiscal 1983 budget, which has a deficit projected at $528 million.\nTogether with a $40-million cut in state support for colleges and universities, the reductions for education represent more than 81 percent of the $282 million trimmed by the Governor's executive order.\n\"It grieved him that so much of this came out of education,\" said a spokesman. \"But he has only five months to balance the budget. Between now and then, there is virtually nothing that can be done to curtail Medicaid costs,\" which have exceeded projections by $149 million.\nSchool districts will have until the end of the current fiscal year to absorb cuts in general aid averaging about 18 percent, according to the state department of education. Categorical programs will be cut by 10 percent.\nWith the new cuts, the $757-million increase appropriated in the current biennium has dwindled to $350 million. State and local officials, noting that many districts have no contracts with employees, predicted that many districts will be forced to attempt local property-tax increases or to tap the state's emergency school-loan fund.\nCleveland's superintendent, Frederick D. Holliday, immediately ordered his subordinates to devise plans for cutting expenses by 10, 15, or 20 percent, anticipating further cuts in the next biennium.\nThe Governor also last week asked the legislature to close the budget gap and create a small contingency fund by increasing and extending a \"temporary\" surcharge on income taxes enacted last year and by raising the tax on utility companies.\nAn Illinois circuit judge has blocked Gov. James R. Thompson's plan to cut $159 million from the state's fiscal 1983 budget, a move that would have reduced state aid to elementary and secondary schools by $42 million.\nJudge Albert S. Porter of Cook County Circuit Court issued a temporary injunction preventing Governor Thompson from taking action under the Emergency Budget Act, which the General Assembly passed last year to give him one-time emergency authority to cut as much as 2 percent of this year's budget.\nThe judge ruled that the state legislature unconstitutionally relinquished its budget-making authority when it passed the emergency act. The Governor has said he will appeal the ruling.\nMeanwhile, State Superintendent Donald G. Gill has proposed a $2.1-billion budget for fiscal 1984, an increase of $98 million but still less than the \"full resource needs\" for the state's 1,009 school districts.\nMr. Gill said those needs call for an increase of $154 million over current-year spending, but suggested his proposal represented a more realistic goal in view of the state's troubled economy.\nMr. Gill's budget seeks $1.4 billion in general state aid, an increase of $53 million or about 4 percent over this year's spending.\nSpending for programs mandated by law and other categorical programs would increase $34.7 million to $387.2 million.\nThirty-three high-school students were arrested by police in Anne Arundel County, Md., last week following a seven-month undercover investigation of drug dealing at three area high schools.\nPolice also arrested 14 adults from communities near the schools. It was the largest school drug raid in Anne Arundel history, police said.\nSeventeen of the students were arrested at Meade Senior High School, which is located on the grounds of Fort Meade, an Army base.\nThe students--who came mostly from middle- and upper-middle-class families--were charged with distributing cocaine, hashish, lsd, and other drugs. They were released in the custody of their parents pending court appearances.\nThey also face expulsion from school, authorities said, and will be required to attend drug counseling sessions with their parents before being readmitted.\nGov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas has signed into law a \"30 and out\" teacher-retirement plan that will cost the state somewhere between $3.5 million and $5 million per year.\nThe law will permit public-school teachers to retire with full benefits after 30 years of service, instead of after 35 years, as was formerly required.\nThe law does not have a requirement regarding a minimum retirement age. As a result, a teacher who has 30 years' experience before age 55, for example, will be eligible to retire at that age.\nThe Gideon Society has agreed to stop distributing Bibles in Illinois public schools, following a state legal advisor's opinion that the practice was illegal.\nDavid A. Thompson, assistant legal advisor to the Illinois State Board of Education, said the state received complaints from the American Civil Liberties Union about Bible giveaways during school hours, primarily in the southeastern portion of the state.\n\"The question had come up before,\" he said. \"They've been doing it for more than 20 years, according to one of the superintendents.\"\nBasing its opinion on the U.S. and Illinois constitutions, the legal office advised school districts late last year not to permit the distribution.\n\"We said that if they [the Gideons] want to stand across the street and distribute Bibles to children as they walk by, that's their privilege,\" Mr. Thompson said. \"Our objection was to the use of school property during school hours, which we felt violated the Establishment Clause.\"\nMr. Thompson said the Gideons announced this month that they would cease the practice.\nCities News Roundup\nRuth B. Love, Chicago's superintendent of schools, has asked for a probe of allegations of widespread drinking and marijuana use among school bus drivers.\nThe charges, made last week by the Better Government Association and radio station WCFL, stemmed from a four-month investigation by the association and reporters from the station. They contend that drivers employed by Spears Transportation Inc., which holds a $9.1-million contract with the school board this year to transport 20,000 students, routinely use alcohol and marijuana before and during work.\nOne driver reportedly told bga investigators that \"on a bad day\" more than half of the company's drivers are under the influence of alcohol or other drugs during their afternoon trips. Investigators said they witnessed several incidents of drinking and marijuana use among drivers between trips.\nOfficials of the school system said they were not aware of the alleged abuses until bga and WCFL made their report public last week. The Spears firm, one of several companies providing bus service to the district, also denied knowledge of the alleged misconduct.\nMs. Love has asked Cook County's regional school superintendent, who reports directly to the Illinois State Board of Education, to examine the charges. In addition, she has asked the Chicago police to help monitor the conduct of bus drivers and has ordered principals to supervise the loading and unloading of children \"so that we are in good touch with the drivers,\" a spokesman said.\nThe Dallas school district is being asked to contribute nearly $434,400 toward an intensive city drive to collect delinquent city and school taxes. That is the district's share under its contract with the city for tax-collection services.\nSchool officials have become alarmed at the declining level of voluntary property-tax payments and welcome the city drive, said a spokesman for the district.\nThe collection drive, which will cost nearly $1 million, includes $173,000 to fund an automated lawsuit-filing program, and $750,000 to collect taxes owed on real estate and personal property. Only the promising cases--less than half the total number--will be pursued, said an assistant city manager.\nParents in Pittsburgh went back to school recently--not to adult-education classes, but to a series of 13 workshops intended to refresh their knowledge of the basic skills their children are learning and to teach them a few \"tips of the trade\" to motivate their children.\nThe classes, which have drawn about 40 parents so far, are an outgrowth of the district's Monitoring Achievement in Pittsburgh program, in which parents are notified of students' levels of skill in 20 different areas.\n\"Since parents are being notified on how well their children are doing, we thought it was important, if we want parents to contribute, that they understand the information and be able to help their children,'' said Pat Crawford, information coordinator for the district.\nOfficials also teach parents the new vocabulary used in the fundamental disciplines. Parents who grew up \"carrying\" when they multiplied and \"borrowing\" when they subtracted will not be able effectively to help a child who was taught that he or she must \"regroup\" the numbers. \"Regrouping is Greek to parents,\" Ms. Crawford said.\nVolume 2, Issue 20, February 9, 1983, pp 3, 16\nAt 10:17 P.M. on Jan. 26, one of the most celebrated book-banning controversies in the country ended.\nThe board of the Island Trees Union Free School District in Levittown, N.Y., voted 4 to 3 to keep on the shelves nine books that it had banned from its school libraries in 1976.\nLast June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the board's action warranted a trial to determine whether the First Amendment's free-speech guarantee had been denied to the five students who challenged the book ban.\nShortly after the Court's ruling, a parents' group gave the board a petition with 1,200 signatures urging that the books be returned to the library shelves.\nThe board agreed in August to return the books to library shelves with a requirement that students receive parental consent in order to read them. But the American Civil Liberties Union took its case to New York Attorney General Robert Abrams, who said in December that the board's newest requirement would violate a law on the confidentiality of library records.\nAmong the once-banned books: Slaughterhouse-Five, by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.; Down These Mean Streets, by Piri Thomas; A Reader for Writers: A Critical Anthology of Prose Readings, compiled by Jerome Archer; Soul on Ice, by Eldridge Cleaver; and Go Ask Alice, by an anonymous writer.\nA federal district judge, saying he reached his decision \"with considerable reluctance,\" has dismissed the Goldsboro, N.C., public schools' desegregation lawsuit against the schools in outlying Wayne County.\nLawyers for the city school district had argued that the suburban schools had refused for racial reasons to merge or change their district borders. But in his Jan. 28 ruling, U.S. District Judge Franklin T. Dupree Jr. said that \"the jurisdiction of the federal courts cannot be invoked,\" in the case.\n\"I hasten to say that I reach this result with considerable reluctance,\" he added. \"My sympathies in this case, if I may be permitted to have some, are wholly with\" the city district's school board.\nThe New York City school district's continuing budget crisis took a turn for the better last week when the state agreed to provide $9 million to avoid layoffs of 1,000 teachers.\nHowever, 100 administrative job cuts are planned, as well as cutbacks in free bus service for some 5th- and 6th-grade children, and a five-cent increase in lunch fees.\nThe state contribution was the final piece needed in a $40-million compromise package between the city, state, and school district. The city contributed $l3 million to avoid the teacher layoffs.\n\"There's a tremendous feeling of relief from top to bottom,\" said a school-district spokesman.\nHello, Mrs. Jones? This Is Your Son's, Ah, Principal\nNeed to call 350 parents to let them know Johnnie or Susie cut classes yesterday, or, alternatively, that they made the Dean's list? Or that there is a pta meeting next Wednesday night? Yes, you say, but one can't possibly make that many calls in a day. Well, Boca Ciega High School in Gulfport, Fla., may have the answer.\nLast month, the 1,600-student school put Telsol to work. Half computer, half truant officer, the machine automatically calls and leaves a pre-recorded 20-second message with as many telephone numbers as school officials give it.\n\"It has real potential,\" Jean S. Johnson, Boca Ciega's dean of students, said of the electronic tattletale. \"I couldn't begin to contact the number of parents with personal calls that I have in past couple of weeks with this thing.\"\n\"I type the phone numbers in off the school's master list--yesterday it took a couple of hours because I had 330 absent students and another message that report cards were being handed out--and then I start the robot at 5:30 P.M. and let it run to 9:30 P.M.,\" Ms. Johnson explained. \"It makes 50 calls an hour.\"\n\"Some kids intercept the calls,\" Ms. Johnson continued, \"but they have to think pretty fast if they are going to lie to their parents about who the caller was. And, of course, some parents have complained about being called by a computer. I understand that, but I tell them this is the quickest, most accurate way of communicating with them.\"\nThe machine calls each number up to three times if there is no answer.\nBoca Ciega is using its Telsol on a free, 30-day trial; their Pennsylvania manufacturer usually sells them for $9,000. Ms. Johnson said that if the experiments at Boca Ciega and at another Pinellas County school are successful, the county may purchase one for each of its 14 high schools.\n\"That would be fine with me,\" Ms. Johnson said. \"I can see only one problem with the robot--it has my voice on it. A lot of kids are starting to come in and complain that I'm calling their parents on them when they skip classes. I don't like always being the bad guy.\"\nVolume 2, Issue 20, February 9, 1983, p 16\nRobert G. Scanlon, who served as Pennsylvania's education secretary for four years, has left state government and joined the private sector as assistant to the president of Temple University in Philadelphia.\nMr. Scanlon, a Democrat, was not reappointed to a second term as education secretary by Gov. Richard L. Thornburgh. He was reportedly dissatisfied with his new post, executive secretary of the Human Services Committee, and abruptly quit the job after only five days, amidst rumors of an offer from Temple.\nOne of his new responsibilities at the university will be to \"automate\" the administration, a public-affairs spokesman said.\nAlbert Shanker, president of the American Federation of Teachers, will take his opinions to the airwaves.\nHe will address a variety of education and labor issues as one of two guest commentators for WQXR, a New York radio station, according to Susan Glass, spokesman for the aft\n\"The point of view expressed will be more liberal than conservative, Ms. Glass said. \"The commentaries can be lighthearted and often are,\" Ms. Glass said.\nMr. Shanker's commentaries can be heard on alternating days, Monday through Friday. Herbert Schmertz, vice president for public affairs for the Mobil Corporation is to be the other guest commentator.\nMs. Kelley, who is a tenured first-grade teacher in the Boston school system, has said her future plans are still undecided. But she said her decision not to run for re-election would give the 6,000-member union \"an opportunity for some new perspective.\"\nPrincipals received the lowest salary increases in several years in 1982-83, according to a report released last week by the National Association of Secondary School Principals.\nPrincipals received salary increases this school year ranging from 5.4 percent for elementary-school principals to 7.6 percent for high-school principals in schools with 10,000 to 24,999 students, according to the report. The report was based on the maximum salaries paid to principals and assistant principals by 1,120 school systems that responded to a survey questionnaire.\nLast year, principals earned pay increases ranging from 7.1 percent to 9.3 percent; the year before the figures were 9.2 percent and 12 percent, according to the survey.\nHigh-school principals in the districts of 10,000 to 24,999 students also had the highest maximum salaries--an average of $42,554.\nElementary-school principals in districts with more than 25,000 students had the lowest maximum salary--$37,450.\nScott Thomson, executive director of the nassp, said 10 percent of all principals have left the profession in each of the last few years--only one-quarter of those leaving, he said, were retiring.\nThe data for the report, which has been published in each of the past nine years, came from a national survey of public-school personnel salaries conducted last December by the Education Research Service, a research group sponsored by a number of education associations. The entire report is available to non- ersmembers for $26. Each member receives one copy free, and must pay $13 for eachadditional copy.\nThe Corporation for Public Broadcasting will conduct a nationwide survey this month of the use of computers, television, radio, and other audio media in elementary and secondary schools.\nA cpb spokesman said questionnaires will be sent to 675 of the nation's approximately 15,600 public-school districts. The final results of the survey will be available in October.\nThe cpb is working with the Annenberg School of Communications at the University of Pennsylvania on the project, which is modeled after a 1977 study of the use of television in the schools.\nPennsylvania State University researchers have developed a telephone \"hotline\" for students who return to an empty home after school and need advice on personal or household problems in their parents' absence.\n\"Phonefriend\" operates 15 hours each week in the Pittsburgh area. The hotline is used primarily by about 4,500 children aged 4 to 16 years.\nOfficials with the program say there are as many as four million children nationwide who are responsible for taking care of themselves in the afternoons.\nThe organization usually helps the children with everyday problems, such as suspicious noises, and many children call because they are lonely, officials said. But the telephone operators have also received requests for help in dealing with more serious matters, such as rape or pregnancy.\nCommunity volunteers--including homemakers, social-work students, and others--operate the phone lines.\nThe project has been endorsed by the police, several emergency organizations, and the American Association of University Women.\nThe Norfolk, Va., school board voted last week to abandon its 12-year-old mandatory student-transportation plan and to ask a federal district court to allow elementary-school students in the district to attend their neighborhood schools.\nThat vote, according to civil-rights advocates, made the 35,000-student district the first in the nation to decide to cast off a mandatory busing plan after successfully desegregating its schools.\nThe school district was ordered by a federal district court to begin busing students for desegregation purposes in 1970. In 1975, the court declared the system unitary and closed the lawsuit, Beckett v. Norfolk School Board, after 18 years of litigation.\nThe desegregation plan, however, has remained in effect since then. According to recent school statistics, about 20,000 of the district's 35,000 students continue to be bused.\nToday, approximately 60 percent of Norfolk's students are black, compared to a 60-percent white enrollment in 1970 when busing began, according to Sam W. Ray, the district's deputy superintendent.\nThe board, according to Mr. Ray, plans to ask the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia to review the proposed neighborhood-school plan, which would leave 10 of the city's 36 elementary schools almost entirely black and another 18 schools either 70-percent white or 70-percent minority. The plan envisions the continued busing of junior- and senior-high-school students.",

        "title": "Inside 'A Nation at Risk': A View from the Cutting-Room Floor - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Inside 'A Nation at Risk': A View from the Cutting-Room Floor\nPROVIDENCE, RI.--Five years ago, A Nation at Risk shattered complacency about the state of American education with its grim message about mediocrity in the schools.\nSince then, the report has become virtually synonymous with the state and local \"excellence movement'' that it helped foster. The most widely disseminated education document in American history, it has been printed millions of times and in a host of languages.\nBut despite the enormous success and familiarity of the report, far less is known about the complex negotiations and changes that occurred as a harried commission struggled for 18 grueling months to meet its April 1983 deadline.\nWhat the printed text does not reveal are the arguments that went into its making, and the perspectives that were left on the cutting-room floor.\nNow, however, previously unavailable drafts, staff memoranda, letters, and commissioned papers--donated to Brown University by an alumnus--shed new light on the commission's work.\nIn many ways, the ideas that were excised by the 18-member commission are as illuminating about the tensions in American education as what appeared in print.\nLeft out of the final document, for example, were a separate section on the gifted and talented, strong language on the needs of disadvantaged students, a number of recommendations for improving higher education, and a pointed critique of the federal role in education.\nTerrel H. Bell, then U.S. Secretary of Education, appointed the National Commission on Excellence in Education on Aug. 26, 1981.\nIts 18 members included two principals, a district superintendent, a \"teacher of the year,'' four college and university presidents, a former governor, three individuals connected with state and local school boards, a parent, a retired corporate executive, a former commissioner of education, a Nobel-laureate chemist, a professor of physics, and a publisher of educational literature.\nAt the time, President Reagan had swept into office with promises to abolish the U.S. Education Department. His first budget augured sharp cuts in federal spending for schools.\n\"There seemed to be little prospect for a substantial audience for a report on education,'' recalled Gerald Holton, a member of the commission, in an essay in the fall 1984 issue of Daedalus.\n\"Like some others on the 18-member commission,'' the Harvard physicist wrote, \"I thus accepted the appointment reluctantly, with the explicit understanding that there would be few meetings and that a minority report would be allowed if a need for it developed.''\nHis qualms, Mr. Holton recalled, were not alleviated during the commission's first meeting in October 1981.\nWhen a highly placed Administration official was asked during the meeting about the lack of federal funding for science education, he replied, \"There is no national mandate for such support.''\nEven Secretary Bell was dubious about the commission's prospects.\nStaff minutes of the October meeting report that the Secretary \"stated with cautious optimism that the Commission might prove to be a 'real winner.'''\nYears later, Mr. Bell would write in The Thirteenth Man, his memoir of the Reagan years, that the impact of A Nation at Risk \"by far exceeded my highest expectations.''\nEvolving Focus\nBut interviews with commission members and their staff, and the contents of commission memoranda and drafts, make clear that it did not set out to produce the concise, sharply worded document for which it has since become famous.\n\"It evolved,'' said Milton Goldberg, executive director of the commission's staff and now head of the Education Department's programs-for-the-improvement-of-practice division.\n\"It was only after the commission began to look at the data, and to have its public hearings, that it began to get a sense of the depth of the problem,'' he said.\n\"Even then,'' he added, \"it was not clear among all of the members that we needed a fairly brief, hard-hitting report.''\nThe commission's staff was also divided about the kind of document that was required, recalled Peter H. Gerber, a former staff member who is now director of the education program at the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.\nThe staff included seven full- and part-time employees, numerous consultants, and the periodic assistance of other researchers at the National Institute of Education.\n\"In some ways, we had a classic split between the researchers--who wanted to be sure that more data, more refinement, more sides of an issue, more caveats were displayed,'' Mr. Gerber said last week, \"and those of us who were involved in the 'administration' of the commission.''\nIn the fall of 1981, at the request of the commission, staff members produced a series of papers that summarized available information, laid out issues, and suggested directions for further research, based on the commission's charter.\nSome of the commission's later concerns are already nascent in these early documents, including its focus on the content of the curriculum.\nHearings and Meetings\nThose early outlines were followed by an intensive year of meetings, public hearings, commissioned papers, site visits, and discussions with education, corporate, and civic leaders.\nThus, a trip to Chicago in June 1982 included a public hearing on college admissions and the school-to-college transition; a dinner discussion with some 20 corporate and community leaders; a breakfast meeting with 12 high-school seniors and college freshmen; a site visit to two corporate-education programs; lunch with 27 local college presidents and provosts; and a debriefing session.\n\"We estimated that during the life of the commission, there was some kind of event involving some commission members, and related to commission work, at least once every three weeks,'' Mr. Goldberg said.\nThroughout that year, staff members supplied hundreds of pages of information and documentation to the commission, whose members were fleshing out their own views in written statements ranging from short paragraphs to longer letters.\nAn outline of the final report, approved by the commission in September 1982, included a foreword and executive summary, followed by four chapters, the first of which began with a \"relatively brief, positive description of the size and scope of American education.''\nFrom there, the first chapter went on to include facts and figures about the teaching and student populations; the proportions of students completing various levels of schooling; student achievement; international comparisons; the interactions between American schools, colleges, and universities; an exploration of social forces affecting the schools; and, finally, an outline of major problems.\nLater that fall, Mr. Gardner asked the staff to synthesize the information collected to date in a series of brief, 2- to 5-page issue papers. The resulting documents covered more than 20 topics, ranging from tracking to values education.\n(David P. Gardner, chairman of the commission and president of the University of California, was out of the country last week and unavailable for comment.)\nIn December 1982, staff members began drafting sections of the actual report.\n'Not Emphatic Enough'\nIt was partially in reaction to those drafts that commission members decided on the kind of report they wanted.\n\"The drafts were not emphatic enough to match the gravity of the need,'' William O. Baker, a member of the commission, said last week.\n\"They reflected too much the position that the Education Department itself has adopted,'' added the retired chairman of the board of Bell Telephone Laboratories. \"Namely, everything is O.K., just do a little fine-tuning here and there.''\nBut former staff members argued last week that the staff drafts--based on earlier conceptions of the report--were a necessary precursor to the steps that followed.\n\"People very frequently don't know what they want until they see what they don't want,'' said Susan Traiman, a former staff member who is now a senior policy analyst for the National Governors' Association.\nAlthough the staff drafts may have presented \"too much of a balanced view,'' she said, \"It would be hard to imagine any staff member using the kind of rhetoric that a commission member felt free to use.''\nIn January 1983--just two months before the scheduled release date--Glenn T. Seaborg, another commission member and a Nobel laureate in chemistry, wrote his own outline of the report.\n'Clarion Call, Call to Arms'\nIt included some of the first glimpses of the language that would make its way into the final document:\n\"1. Clarion call, call to arms, concise, include 4, 5 or 6 top recommendations. Total of 10 pages (no more than 15 pages),'' Mr. Seaborg wrote. \"2. Strident opening sentence or two. (1) If foreign country did this to us we would declare war. (2) We have identified the enemy and it is us.''\n\"We are indulging,'' Mr. Seaborg wrote further down in the outline, \"in 'Economic Unilateral Disarmament.'''\n'Start From Scratch'\nIn an interview last week, Mr. Holton said, \"I, for one, found that the drafts being prepared by staff were so involuted and complex--and did not really see the whole picture--that at some point, I said, 'Let us start from scratch and do the writing ourselves.'''\n\"I still have a tape of that meeting,'' Mr. Holton said, \"in which I just spoke my own mind of what such a report should be like.''\nAs \"punishment for not keeping quiet,'' he said, Mr. Gardner and several other commission members asked the physicist to write his own version of the opening statement.\n\"They gave me a long weekend to do it,'' he said, \"Friday afternoon to Monday morning.''\nMr. Holton's Feb. 14 draft would lay the groundwork for much of the final report.\nBut the Brown University documents reveal that it continued to undergo extensive revision, reorganization, and editing throughout February and March.\nA Lot of Issues Fell Out'\nSubsequent decisions about what to include or leave out of the report were based on several factors, commission and staff members said last week, including the length of the final document and the struggle to reach consensus.\n\"When the commission decided, finally, that what they wanted to produce was a fairly brief, hard-hitting report that communicated a central message to the American people, ... then everything else became, if you will, peripheral,'' said Mr. Goldberg.\n\"A lot of issues very naturally fell out,'' he added, either because they would detract from the report's central themes, or because they were too complicated to discuss in a short document.\nAs examples, he mentioned tracking, class size, changes in school organization, and the nature of teacher training.\n\"Some of the commission members had strong views about what constituted a solid curriculum in one area or another,'' he added. \"What we ended up with were very, very brief statements about the curriculum.''\nEarly drafts of the report also urged that the nation's tests and examinations include more writing. \"In far too many school systems,'' a Feb. 23 draft stated, \"more multiple-choice testing or very short-answer tests have almost entirely crowded out the essay, as written either over a period of days or under test conditions.''\nThe 'Greatest Waste'\nEarlier versions of the report also included strong wording about the needs of disadvantaged students.\nAlthough A Nation at Risk asserts that \"excellence'' and \"equity'' are \"twin goals'' that must be pursued simultaneously, it has been repeatedly criticized for paying too little attention to the needs of the disadvantaged.\nIn fact, a March 11 draft of the report argued that the \"greatest waste occurs in those sectors of our population which the schools and society have not served well in the past and continue to serve poorly today--ethnic and racial minorities, the poor and disadvantaged, and the gifted.''\nIn order to foster a \"Learning Society,'' the draft argued, \"it is imperative that the special needs and talents of these very groups receive special attention.''\nAnother version of the report advocated that each school \"make special provision in terms of guidance, curriculum, and manpower'' to meet the needs of both disadvantaged and gifted students.\nThe same draft also urged that both schools and colleges create \"special programs'' to recruit and assist talented \"educationally handicapped students who can be brought up to par and are likely then to stay with sound academic curriculum.''\n\"Given the huge number of under-achievers now in the system,'' it argued, \"this is a program of urgency.''\nBut while the final report noted that both educationally disadvantaged students and gifted and talented students might require special curriculum materials and assistance, the earlier, stronger language was missing.\n'Reprise of the 60's'\nCommission and staff members offer several opinions on why the changes occurred.\nMr. Goldberg said the commission's consensus was that the schools should hold the same, high goals for all youngsters, although some students might need special assistance to meet them.\nThe commission wanted to depict the problems in education as \"common problems,'' said Mr. Gerber. A special emphasis on the disadvantaged, he argued, would \"seem like a reprise of the 60's'' or a \"plea for federal action,'' and had the potential to fragment the agenda.\nIn retrospect, Mr. Baker said last week, he wished the commission had emphasized the needs of disadvantaged students more.\n\"The byproducts of either ignoring--or at least underemphasizing--the problems of the disadvantaged are very much more severe than most people, particularly those active in the establishment, were willing to admit or really felt,'' at the time, he said.\nMr. Baker also drafted a separate chapter on the needs of gifted and talented students which never appeared in the final report.\nBut Ms. Traiman said criticism of the report for downplaying the \"twin goals of equity and high-quality schooling,'' to which it refers, was \"unjustified.''\nThat criticism was \"not an actual response to the text,'' she said last week, \"but a response to the Administration, and a perception that the Administration was unsympathetic'' to the problem.\nHigher Education: Little Interest\nAlthough the commission's charter instructed it to pay special attention to the needs of teen-age youths and to high schools, earlier drafts of A Nation at Risk also included a number of recommendations for higher education.\nA March 11 version of the report, for instance, recommended expanding the National Assessment of Educational Progress to include undergraduates and adults.\nIt also advocated strengthening liberal-education requirements in the nation's colleges and universities, and restructuring higher education's criteria for the retention, tenure, and promotion of faculty to lend \"greater weight to both effective teaching'' and to cooperative ventures with schools, cultural, scientific, and medical institutions, and businesses and industry.\nBut according to Mr. Baker, it soon became clear that the commission could not \"satisfactorily'' tackle the problems of higher education, which were, in his view, far less acute than those of elementary and secondary schools.\n\"In a way,'' said Mr. Holton, \"if I regretted anything about [the focus on junior and senior high schools], it is not that we didn't go into higher education, but that we perhaps should have gone into the earlier years more, in order to prepare properly for the high schools.''\nThe lack of attention to higher education, however, drew criticism from at least one staff member, who wrote that it was a \"major missing element'' in later drafts of the report.\nAccording to Ms. Traiman, \"the key promoter of the higher-education issues was a staff person. There wasn't, as I recall, a champion on the commission.''\nThings Got Watered Down'\n\"The part of the report that was written most quickly and in some respects, perhaps, had the least time for reflection, were the recommendations,'' Ms. Traiman added.\n\"I think they got short shrift,'' she said last week.\n\"There wasn't a chance to go back and say, 'Lets look at these recommendations and see if they really correct the problem.''\nIn the area of teaching, in particular, she said, the report \"could have been seen as much more forward- looking,'' if some of its earlier language had been retained.\n\"As I recall,'' she added, \"we were all in the office toward the end, on a weekend. Things got watered down. Different commission members held out for different things.''\nSeveral who worked on the report last week praised Mr. Gardner, in particular, for the delicate editing and negotiating skills that were required as the commission strove to meet its deadline.\n'Excellence Costs'\nEarlier versions were also more pointed about the lack of federal funding and leadership for education at the time of the commission's work.\nThe final version noted: \"Excellence costs. But in the long run mediocrity costs far more.''\nBut an earlier version added: \"This Commission would be irresponsible not to state clearly, explicitly, and firmly the essential importance of the Federal government taking its responsibilities in these matters seriously and not permitting itself to be distracted by symbolic but irrelevant issues such as the debate about whether or not there should be a Federal Department of Education.''\nAlthough commission members insisted that a report without any mention of the federal government's responsibilities would be a sham, in the end, they decided not to put a price tag on their recommendations.\nMr. Gerber attributed the decision not to expand upon specific federal policies, in part, to the political context at the time.\n\"Vouchers were still very hot,'' he noted. \"There were people on the commission who were closely attuned to the views of the Administration, who were proponents of vouchers. The basic determination that the commission made was that if at all possible, it would issue a unanimous report, and that it may have to sacrifice attention to some issues in order to gain it.''\n\"The parties that wanted a bigger federal role, a bigger federal budget, and the parties that wanted freedom of choice, the diffusion of resources, and the privatization of resources essentially both gave way,'' he said.\n\"In retrospect,'' Mr. Holton said, \"we might have insisted on a minority report with price tags.'' But at the time, he noted, it seemed reasonable to omit, particularly because of other reports in progress that the commission knew would include cost estimates.\n'Self-Inflicted Wound'\nMr. Holton and Mr. Baker offered biting appraisals last week of what has happened to federal funding since the publication of A Nation at Risk.\n\"The obvious pulling back of the federal government's role is shocking and will be thought of as a self-inflicted, crippling wound in the future,'' Mr. Holton said.\nThe nation needs an \"Education Restoration Act,'' Mr. Baker contended, that is \"federally sponsored and that involves a movement comparable to the space-age movement'' of the 1950's and 60's.\n\"The mobilization of our population,'' he said, \"is going to require a federal effort of unprecedented dimensions, and it could well be that it needs to be based around an independent agency that focuses particularly on science and mathematics, and just brings everything else along with it.''",

        "title": "Counselors See Conflicts in Carrying Out Mission - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Counselors See Conflicts in Carrying Out Mission\nGail Bottone, the head of the guidance department at Sickles High School in Tampa, Fla., handles all college and career counseling for the school's nearly 2,000 students. During the first lunch hour, a line stretching out her office door consists of students, teachers, and parents.\nLarge survey points up doubts about what schools do and what they should do\nNovember 15, 2011 | Includes updates and/or revisions.\nMiddle and high school counselors believe they have a unique and powerful role to play in preparing all students for good jobs or college, but they feel hamstrung by insufficient training, competing duties, and their own schools\u2019 priorities, according to a new study.\nThe online survey of 5,300 counselors was conducted this past spring for the College Board\u2019s Advocacy & Policy Center. One of the largest-ever surveys of counselors, it paints a picture of a committed but frustrated corps that sees a deep divide between the ideal mission of schools and the work that takes shape day to day.\nNine in 10 counselors, for instance, said that two objectives should top their schools\u2019 priority lists: ensuring that all students have access to high-quality education and that they graduate well-equipped for college and careers. But fewer than four in 10 said their schools actually operated as if those goals were central to their mission, according to the survey, released last month.\nThat disconnection was even sharper among counselors in public and low-income schools than in private and wealthier ones. Only 19 percent in high-poverty schools said college and career readiness was part of their schools\u2019 day-to-day mission, compared with 30 percent of counselors overall. Two-thirds of those in private schools said so, compared with one-quarter of those in public schools.\n\u201cWe have more than 100,000 counselors in our [school] system, and yet they\u2019re not being strategically deployed,\u201d said John Bridgeland, the lead author of the report and the president and chief executive officer of Civic Enterprises, a Washington-based public-policy group that includes high school improvement among its focus issues.\n\u201cCounselors are uniquely positioned to see the whole life of the child; to see their family circumstances ... their social and emotional needs, the nonacademic supports they may require, and their academic progress and challenge, not just in a given year, like a teacher can, but over time,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s an advantage that\u2019s extremely powerful. Not deploying counselors in a way that takes advantage of that unique role is a huge national loss.\u201d\nCounselors reported that a broad and unclear conception of their role gets in the way of focusing on what they believe to be most important. Nine in 10 said they wanted to reduce their administrative burdens and have smaller caseloads so they could get more training and spend more time helping students with supports and preparation for careers and college. The average caseload of the counselors in the study was 368 students; 427 in schools with high poverty rates.\n\u201cCounselors\u2019 duties should be aligned to the needs of students, but that doesn\u2019t always happen in a school setting,\u201d said Patricia Z. Smith, who is now a counselor-consultant to the Hillsborough County school district in Florida, after three decades as director of guidance services there. \u201cThey get pulled into lunchroom duty and bus duty, into substituting for teachers, and proctoring tests. This is a shock to new counselors when they first get into schools.\u201d\nMs. Bottone discusses strategy with Hilda Genco, an assistant principal, and Principal Jake Russell.\nThe quality and focus of counselors\u2019 training is a problem, said Ms. Smith. Typical training programs\u2014focusing on skills such as counseling technique, group counseling, crisis intervention, and human growth\u2014are stronger at preparing counselors for their roles as personal and emotional supports to students than they are for their work helping students plan for college and careers, she said.\nThe study reflects that appraisal. Although seven in 10 middle and high school counselors hold master\u2019s degrees, and half were teachers first, only 16 percent rated their training as \u201chighly effective\u201d in preparing them for their counseling work in schools.\n\u201cDespite the good intentions of many of these professionals, research suggests that little alignment exists among counselor training, work assignments, and school goals,\u201d the report says. \u201cThere seems to be consistent misalignment between the counseling field and the education system.\u201d\nThe counseling field has begun to grapple with such schisms and define the roles counselors should play in supporting students\u2019 all-around success.\nThe Education Trust\u2019s National Center for Transforming School Counseling, for instance, developed a \u201cnew vision for school counseling,\u201d which advocates a role as \u201cpowerful agents of change\u201d and \u201cleaders\u201d who create opportunities for all students to \u201cpursue dreams of high aspirations.\u201d In April, the College Board\u2019s National Office for School Counselor Advocacy released eight components of work it considers crucial to schools\u2019 mission of promoting college and career readiness, including helping students see and create strong links between their academic programs and their future work and education plans.\nSchool leaders don\u2019t always appreciate the role counselors can play in the school\u2019s academic-improvement plan, said Mel Riddile, a former principal of two Virginia high schools. Counselors are key in connecting the dots between the broad goals and the concrete, student-level changes necessary to reach those goals, he said.\n\u201cPrincipals who get it realize that when you have a school plan to implement, the plan is implemented when counselors sit down with students to schedule them [for classes]. That\u2019s the moment of truth,\u201d said Mr. Riddile, who is now the associate director of high school services for the National Association of Secondary School Principals, based in Reston, Va.\nThe report advocates key policies to bring about shifts in counseling.\nCounselors must be seen as \u201cleaders focused on keeping students on track to graduate from high school ready for college and career,\u201d and their activities should be tightly tied to that vision, with \u201cless expensive\u201d and highly trained staff members redeployed to handle administrative functions, the report says.\nA student adds to the marker board in Ms. Bottone's workroom, also known as the \"success center.\"\nMore professional-development dollars should be aimed at counselors, and preservice training should be reworked to reflect the current demand for deeper skills in supporting students with college- and career planning, including college-access issues such as financial aid. States should also enact or enforce caseload requirements. As of 2009, the study says, only five states met the American School Counselor Association\u2019s recommended ratio of 250 students per counselor.\nCentral to the study is the idea that counselors should be held accountable for student progress, a view that Mr. Bridgeland and others in the field advanced in a briefing on Capitol Hill last month, where lawmakers have been working to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.\nExploring counselors\u2019 views on accountability in the survey produced mixed results. Six in 10 said they \u201cstrongly or somewhat\u201d support certain accountability and incentives for counselors to help students meet career- and college-readiness goals. Support for the idea was especially strong among African-American counselors and those in urban and high-minority schools.\nQueried about possible indicators that might be used to influence judgments about their performance, high school counselors expressed the strongest support for measures such as rates of high school graduation and college application, the completion of college-preparation courses, and students\u2019 access to college-level courses. More than half said using such indicators was \u201csomewhat fair\u201d or \u201cvery fair.\u201d\nBut more than half said it would be unfair to judge them on other factors, such as their schools\u2019 dropout rates, or how many students fill out federal financial-aid forms, gain acceptance to college, or graduate from college.\nAt the middle school level, most counselors said it would be fair to judge them in part on middle school completion rates, but not on other indicators, including student attendance, promotion, success in Algebra 1, and high school graduation.\nSome school districts have been experimenting with counselor accountability. Florida\u2019s Hillsborough County is well known for its work on teacher performance pay, but has also begun similar work with counselors. This is the first year that counselors\u2019 evaluations will be based in part on accountability for student progress, Ms. Smith said.\nAs part of its \u201cEXCELerator\u201d initiative, through the College Board, to get more students into higher-level courses, Hillsborough asked its middle school counselors in 2007-08 to help build a college-going culture and increase enrollment and success in Algebra 1, said Ms. Smith.\nBy the 2010-11 school year, 79 percent of 8th graders were taking the course, compared with 47 percent when the push began, and passing rates rose by 43 percent, she said.\nThe counselors collaborated on many strategies to accomplish that, Ms. Smith said, including producing and distributing brochures to families to raise awareness about the importance of completing Algebra 1 in 8th grade, and organizing tutoring sessions for students before and after school, and at lunch, with teachers or high school students to help them through the classes.\nCounselors also began using data available to teachers to monitor students earlier and more closely, she said.\n\u201cThey\u2019d go into our online grading system, which counselors didn\u2019t really used to look at very much, and check those grades instead of waiting until report cards came out. They\u2019d see if kids were doing their homework, and see how their grades were, and decide maybe it\u2019s time to call home or get a group together for some extra help.\u201d\nPublished in Print: December 7, 2011, as Counselors See Conflicts in Carrying Out Their Mission\n\u201cSchools Strengthen Counseling on Postsecondary Options,\u201d June 9, 2011.\n\u201cHigh School Counselors,\u201d September 30, 2009.\n\u201cBuilding a Culture Aimed at College,\u201d June 11, 2009.\n\"Survey Probes Principal-Counselor Relationship,\" (High School Connections Blog) June 9, 2009.",

        "title": "Study Links Zoning to Education Disparities - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Study Links Zoning to Education Disparities\nThis mantra of real estate agents and their clients alike is now the target of a new report from the Brookings Institution linking housing prices and zoning practices to effectively depriving low-income students of high-quality schools.\nUsing test scores from schools in the 100 largest metropolitan areas in the country, senior research analyst Jonathan Rothwell found that housing costs an average of 2.4 times more\u2014close to $11,000 more per year\u2014near a high-scoring public school than near a low-scoring one. Housing prices can be a barometer of zoning practices because near high-scoring schools, the homes are typically larger and fewer and more expensive than in the areas surrounding low-scoring schools. Zoning regulations that intend to keep population density low segregate cities and towns by race and income, according to the study released today.\nIt shows that the average low-income student attends a school that scores at the 42nd percentile on state exams, while the average middle/high-income student attends a school that scores at the 61st percentile on state exams.\nThese test-score gaps were especially pronounced in the Northeastern part of the country, which claimed six of the top 10 largest achievement gaps of the 100 regions ranked by the report.\nWhile the idea that economic segregation was a function of zoning practices isn\u2019t new, Mr. Rothwell said his research is among the first to explicitly link the two and tie the results to access to high-quality schools. In this case, quality was determined by state test scores calculated from data listed on GreatSchools.org.\n\u201cI haven\u2019t seen anything that tries nationally to document the financial barriers that low-income families face to get into high-scoring public schools,\u201d Mr. Rothwell said, noting that charter schools and voucher programs are some of the more-popular methods used to help families get around having access only to district-run schools near where they live. \u201cI do think zoning is an underlying problem.\u201d\nDeciding where different types of housing will be constructed in a given city can be a highly politically charged process, and there are few drivers for changing existing housing patterns, Mr. Rothwell said.\nThe Test-Score Gap\nA new report from the Brookings Institution finds that test scores at schools with high concentrations of low-income students are significantly lower than schools in the same areas where most students are from middle- or high-income families.\nModern zoning practices came about in the 1920s, along with the rise of the automobile, making living farther away from urban centers more practical. Suburbs emerged, created by families who felt they were losing political power in cities. In their own cities and towns, they could create housing laws and schools in a way that suited them, Mr. Rothwell said.\nReforming these entrenched systems is unlikely to happen without the involvement of the federal government, he said.\n\u201cWhat I would like to see: something like a free market for density and zoning policies that do not discriminate against small homes or multifamily units,\u201d Mr. Rothwell said. In other words, housing of all different styles and price ranges could be mixed together without restriction.\n\u2018Exclusionary\u2019 Zoning\nResearch has shown that places with exclusionary residential zoning\u2014that discourage or prevent the development of inexpensive housing\u2014would have more low-cost residences available if the rules had been relaxed, said Rolf Pendall, director of the Metropolitan Housing & Communities Policy Center at the Washington-based Urban Institute, a public policy and good-government think tank.\n\u201cThat\u2019s why the people who live there erect these barriers and keep them there. In many cases, they try to keep apartments and low-cost houses out exactly because they want to separate their kids from the children of people who can\u2019t afford expensive housing. Sometimes they also think they will pay less in taxes to educate the children of the well-to-do than to educate the children of less-affluent households,\u201d Mr. Pendall said.\nSome cities don\u2019t have much of an opportunity to adjust their housing patterns, however, even if they want to.\nIn Hartford, Conn., which is embedded in an area Mr. Rothwell ranked as having among the highest test-score gaps between low-income and higher-income schools, poverty is the norm. The median income is about $24,000 a year, said David Panagore, the city\u2019s chief operating officer.\nThe city, with about 124,000 residents and 18 square miles of land, can\u2019t impose zoning changes on the wealthier surrounding areas, he said. While Mr. Rothwell\u2019s study may be on point, the city has little ability to send lower-income students to schools outside its boundaries where there are children of greater means. (The study used metropolitan areas as defined by the U.S. Census, which don\u2019t necessarily align with district or city boundaries.)\nConnecticut has tried to give districts an incentive to create magnet schools, funding those schools at a higher level than traditional public schools, so that they will draw students from wealthier neighborhoods, he said.\nMr. Panagore said the power of city planners and zoning boards may be overstated in Mr. Rothwell\u2019s analysis.\n\u201cPlanners don\u2019t say \u2018I want to create high-density housing over here.\u2019 They don\u2019t get to do that,\u201d he said. \u201cThey can\u2019t act contrary to the community\u2019s wishes.\u201d\nIn some instances, cities are making strides to change long-standing housing patterns, although those opportunities don\u2019t come along very often, said Chris Poynter, a spokesman for the city of Louisville, Ky. The Jefferson County school district, which includes Louisville, has struggled with finding a solution to desegregating schools that is supported by courts.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to take a lot of work over many decades to diversify our housing stock,\u201d Mr. Poynter said. One recently built development, NuLu, involved tearing down barracks-style public housing, and rebuilding to give access to housing to everyone from single mothers drawing public assistance to physicians to medical students.\nIn Meredith v. Jefferson County Board of Education, the U.S. \u201cSupreme Court said we couldn\u2019t use race as a way for our school system to desegregate. Our school\u2019s new formula looks at economic segregation. It tries to have goals for every school\u2014for people from lower incomes and higher incomes,\u201d he said. \u201cFrom our city perspective we realize we do have a role to play through our planning and zoning process.\u201d\nLouisville still has a long way to go, Mr. Poynter said. The 770,000-resident area remains segregated in many ways. But the county ranked in the top third of the Brookings report\u2014meaning about two-thirds of the areas ranked by the report had larger test-score gaps.\n\u201cWhen we put our resources and our time and our talent into things, we can really move the needle,\u201d he added.\nBut as in the case of Louisville, new developments may only affect individual neighborhoods and influence the economic make-up of a few schools.\n\u201cThe metro areas where exclusionary zoning is low still have many cities in which some neighborhoods are dominated by rental apartments and others by high-priced, single-family detached houses,\u201d said Mr. Pendall, of the Urban Institute. \u201cThose where exclusionary zoning is high have many towns ... where it\u2019s difficult or impossible to build any apartments at all, in any neighborhood. This kind of metropolitan area doesn\u2019t work as well as one in which jurisdictions or school districts have more mixed housing.\u201d\nSchool boards have found some ways to circumvent long-established living patterns, an issue they have struggled with since schools were required to be desegregated almost 60 years ago. Complex patterns of busing students emerged, magnet schools were created, and some districts have eliminated school boundaries based on geography.\nIn the Lee County, Fla., school district, listed in Mr. Rothwell\u2019s report as the Cape Coral-Fort Myers area, school officials created a system of school choice more than a decade ago to settle a desegregation lawsuit.\nThe 83,000-student district, where about 70 percent of students are poor, had one of the smallest test-score gaps between low- and higher-income students in the Brookings report.\nThe county is divided into three zones, and parents can choose among the schools in their zone. Each area has specialty programs, including International Baccalaureate and arts schools, district spokesman Joe Donzelli said.\nThe county, on Florida\u2019s southwestern coast, includes exclusive island resort towns and low-income inland areas.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter what side of the tracks you live on: You have the same chance to go to that school whether you live on the wealthy side of the county or the lower-income side of the county,\u201d Mr. Donzelli said.\nAlthough the district reached unitary status\u2014escaping its federal court-ordered desegregation\u2014years ago, abandoning the choice system isn\u2019t really an option. The district would quickly revert to a pattern of segregated schools, so the extra transportation costs are worth it, according to Mr. Donzelli.\nHowever, while Mr. Rothwell said his study and others are evidence that low-income students benefit from attending high-scoring schools, there is no guarantee that this factor by itself will have an effect on students\u2019 educational achievement, said Reginald Felton, the assistant executive director for congressional relations for the National School Boards Association in Alexandria, Va.\n\u201cIncreasing access to suburban areas or to wealthy neighborhoods in urban areas alone will not necessarily significantly improve performance by low-income students or racial and ethnic minority students,\u201d he said. \u201cAdditional support systems from the school as well as the community are necessary to create and sustain \u2018positive learning environments\u2019.\u201d\nIn addition, though school boards can do little beyond share their opinions with municipal government leaders on zoning decisions to affect how cities develop, he said, all schools need to have high expectations and quality instruction.\nOther places that did relatively well in Mr. Rothwell\u2019s rankings include the Seattle area and the Portland, Ore. area. Portland created policies that limit sprawl and the development of wealthy suburban enclaves, Mr. Rothwell said.\nAnd Seattle appears to be following Mr. Felton\u2019s suggested playbook: The district\u2019s old school-assignment plan was struck down in the same Supreme Court ruling that affected Louisville. The district had a choice model in which students could attend any school in the district but some people believe it favored families who had the time and motivation to research the best options for their children. Lower-income families and those who weren\u2019t native English-speakers had a harder time navigating it.\nThe 48,500-student district, where about 41 percent of students are eligible for free or reduced-price meals, has now abandoned the choice plan and is instead focused on improving the quality of every school, spokeswoman Teresa Wippel said.\n\u201cWe are also looking at what is working at schools where students in the past have struggled,\u201d Ms. Wippel said, \u201cwith the goal of replicating that whenever possible.\u201d\n\u201cGuidance on Race-Based Factors Gets Polarized Response,\u201d December 9, 2011.\n\u201cSchool Boundary Plan Divides Minn.

All but one state, Montana, responded to the survey this year.\nThirty-nine states say they have developed a coordinated agency-wide plan and calendar for professional development aligned to the common core (or their own career- and college-ready standards), while 20 states say they have or will identify providers for districts and schools to access.\n\"One of the shortcomings of past state standards-based reform efforts was the lack of attention to implementation, including ensuring that curricular and instructional resources and meaningful professional development were available,\" the report says.\nThe report provides little detail about the types of curricular materials states are developing and providing, other than to say they include model units, lessons, curricular maps, or graphic organizers. The voluntary offerings supplied by states are typically housed on state education agency websites, the report says.\nIt also probed whether states are matching their standards with high school graduation requirements, finding that while the number is growing, at 23 states, it's still fewer than half.\nPublished in Print: September 19, 2012, as Standards Materials Under way in States",

        "title": "Custom Football & Baseball Cleats, Meet The Artist NFL & MLB Players Go-To",
        "raw_content": "Custom Football & Baseball Cleats, Meet The Artist NFL & MLB Players Go-To\nLike a gifted tattoo artist or a master barber, custom cleat creator Marcus Rivero has hundreds of professional football and baseball players waiting in line to have their cleats graced by his airbrush.\nHis NFL client list reads like a fantasy football team, but the most amazing part might be the fact his shoe design business is technically a side hustle.\nBy day, Rivero, aka SolesBySir, owns a wholesale used tire company in Miami. By night, the 32-year-old becomes the artist behind all the custom football and baseball cleats your favorite NFL and MLB players wear on the field.\nI kicked it with the custom cleat king to talk about how he got his start making wearable art and how he became the go-to artist for NFL and MLB players.\nConsidering Rivero has a regular 9-5 like the rest of us, you might be wondering when he sleeps. I know I was. The answer is simple, really, he doesn't.\nSpeaking with Elite Daily, Rivero said,\nI have a studio in my office, and I'll work here late into the evening. Or, I'll go home, where I turned my second bedroom into a studio. I work from 6 o'clock at night until 3, 4, 5 in the morning, everyday. It's crazy, but I really, genuinely love painting these shoes. It's absurd.\nMore absurd, though, might be the story SolesBySir told me about how he first got started in the custom cleat business. I'm not sure how many times Rivero has been asked to tell this tale, but he recounts it as if it just happened last week.\nSpeaking with Elite Daily, the 32-year-old said,\nIt's actually a crazy story. About three years ago, I was dating a girl. It was Valentine's Day, and I wanted to get a pretty thoughtful gift. I've always been a sneaker-head, always had tons of sneakers, and she wasn't so much into sneakers. So the only logical thing I thought was let me buy her sneakers for Valentine's Day\u2026 but personalize them. I bought some shoes online, bought paint and brushes. I had never painted a shoe in my life. I spent 20 hours, I'll never forget, painting that shoe. She got it, absolutely loved the shoe. She posted it on Instagram, and the next thing you know, Instagram being Instagram, friends of ours started saying, 'Oh my God, I love the shoe. I have my daughter's first birthday party, can you do a Mickey design?' [caption id=\"attachment_1694496\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"514\"]Instagram[/caption] Or, 'My brother's a diehard Yankee fan, it's his birthday.\u201d So, I did about eight or 10 pairs like that, for friends. I charged them $100 a pair.\nThat explains how the Miami native got his start creating custom sneakers, but as he was telling this story, I kept asking myself how he made the jump from Mickey Mouse to Marshawn Lynch.\nSolesBySir got there soon enough, telling Elite Daily,\nNolan Carroll, who played for the Miami Dolphins at the time, saw one of the [Instagram] posts. I don't know how, but he saw it. When he saw it, he reached out to me via Instagram. He was like, 'Hey, I have some Jordans, can you do them for me?' I was so excited. I bought my first airbrush gun. He tells me he wants me to do Statue of Liberty theme, which at the time, I had no idea what that meant. I Googled it, and what it meant was to make the shoe look rustic and green, like a piece of the Statue of Liberty. How hard can this be? I did it, and I sent him a picture to show him the progress. He gets the picture and he's like, 'Oh, it's OK.' I was pissed.\nRivero continued -- and here's where I almost fall off the chair -- saying,\nI threw my phone and accidentally dropped a bottle of acetone on the shoes. Pure accident, but when I dropped it, I quickly got a towel to wipe it off. When I wiped it, the shoe almost looked like a granite marble countertop. It looked like a whole bunch of cool colors. I re-sent him a picture, instantly, and he goes, 'Oh my God, I'm in love.' So, I purposely dropped acetone on the next shoe.\nWhen you look at the heights Rivero has ascended to in just a few years, it's hard to wrap your head around the concept of this whole thing starting \"accidentally.\"\nRivero spoke to me like we were two old friends catching up at a bar. He told me after he did his Jordans, Nolan Carroll wouldn't stop hounding him to do custom football cleats.\nThe 32-year-old declined because he didn't want his designs getting trashed on an NFL field. He wasn't sure how the work would hold up.\nThe 29-year-old cornerback refused to take no for an answer, despite the fact NFL players get fined for wearing custom cleats, and eventually, Marcus Rivero caved.\nThe custom cleats held up on the field of play, and soon enough, eight other dudes on the Miami Dolphins called Rivero to customize their cleats. Speaking of his NFL break, Rivero said,\nI did those eight guys, and my first link outside of Miami was Jamar Taylor. He wanted me to do a pair of shoes, I did them. [Taylor's] college roommate was Jeron Johnson, and he saw his post on Instagram and reached out to me. I do a pair of shoes for Jeron, he falls in love with them. Next thing you know, Marshawn Lynch sees the shoes. Year one, I maybe had 30 or 40. Year two, about 100. Now, I would say this season, well over 400-500 guys in the league.\nHis successful Valentine's Day gift and the accidental acetone splash clearly play an integral part in Marcus Rivero's success, but it's clear his genuine personality, loyalty and attention to detail are what carry him now.\nSpeaking with Elite Daily, SolesBySir said,\nIf it was up to me, I'd do the whole NFL, but I'm literally a one-man band. I take pride in painting the shoes and customer service. I never shortcut a shoe. I give it everything I've got.\nFrom Breast Cancer Awareness cleats to the Black Lives Matter movement, Rivero truly does it all when it comes to customizations.\nHe told Elite Daily,\nThe more I think about how my brand and I have grown through this whole experience, it takes on a deeper meaning nowadays. Now, it's take a white shoe and turn it into a symbol. For example, DeSean Jackson's caution cleats. For him, it wasn't about Black Lives Matter, it was about being tired of people dying -- African Americans and cops. It turned into this big deal, and that's what the point of the cleats: Generate talk. Generate something. It's really cool now because my art has actually taken on meaning, more than just being cool, creative stuff.\nConsidering it takes Rivero anywhere from three to seven hours to complete a pair of custom cleats, I found the $500-$1,200 price range beyond reasonable. But the more I spoke with SolesBySir, the more I realized this will always be a passion project for him.\nRivero said,\nI can't begin to tell you how amazing it is to make these things. I'm sitting there in awe because I have Marshawn Lynch on the phone telling me he's a fan. I'm sitting here thinking, man, I'm a fan of you. It's surreal. I didn't have any experience prior to this. The only people who ever told me I was good at art were my mom and my middle school art teacher. I never painted a thing.\nThe man who literally never sleeps and has more clients than he can keep track of told me he would've killed for an opportunity to make custom kicks for Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson, truly a one of a kind pair... something Marcus Rivero is all too familiar with.\nCitations: SolesBySir (Instagram)",

Authorities say that a 27-year-old man from East Bridgewater was driving a truck from one lot to another across West Street when the truck slammed into a motorcycle.\nEmergency crews were called to the scene around 10:20 Saturday morning to find the motorcyclist pinned underneath the truck. The 57-year-old victim did not survive the motorcycle accident and was pronounced dead at the scene.\nThe truck driver apparently was in a company truck. Police say that the man works as a welder for an East Bridgewater-based company and was driving across the street in a company truck. The man is not allowed to drive any vehicle that does not include an ignition interlock device, according to police. The truck involved in the fatal accident reportedly does not have such a device installed.\nAuthorities say that the welder involved in the fatal accident has a history of driver\u2019s license suspensions and DUI offenses on his record, leading to the requirement that he only drive vehicles with an ignition interlock device installed. The man is charged with a variety of crimes, including failure to yield, unlawfully driving without an interlock device and unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.\nThere does not appear to be anything to suggest in media reports that the man driving the fuel truck was under the influence at the time of the crash. But, police certainly believe that the man was not lawfully behind the wheel and failed to yield for the oncoming motorcyclist on the roadway.\nAny truck accident can expose victims to the serious risk of harm. But when a truck, with its size and mass of metal, strikes a motorcyclist, the results can be devastating\u2014even in a relatively low speed crash. Victims and the families of victims of such wrecks can be devastated.\nAnswers may be difficult to come by\u2014even as authorities investigate a wreck. Personal injury lawyers know that a government investigation may not completely bring answers\u2014especially when a commercial vehicle is involved. The probe may not delve into why a worker was allowed to be behind the wheel in the first place.\nSource: Enterprise News, \u201cDriver of fuel truck in fatal motorcycle crash has history of drunk driving,\" Erin Shannon, June 26, 2013\nTags: failure to yield, motorcycle accidents",

None has been more lauded and more blamed. Hawthorne \"felt the Laocoon very powerfully, though very quietly; an immortal agony, with a strange calmness diffused through it, so that it resembles the vast rage of the sea, calm on account of its immensity.\"[1]\nRuskin, on the other hand, thinks \"that no group has exercised so pernicious an influence on art as this; a subject ill chosen, meanly conceived, and unnaturally treated, recommended to imitation by subtleties of execution and accumulation of technical knowledge,\"[2] Of the two verdicts the latter is surely much nearer the truth.\nThe calmness which Hawthorne thought he saw in the Laocoon is not there; there is only a terrible torment. Battle, wounds, and death were staple themes of Greek sculpture from first to last; but nowhere else is the representation of physical suffering, pure and simple, so forced upon us, so made the \"be-all and end-all\" of a Greek work. As for the date of the group, opinion still varies considerably. The probabilities seem to point to a date not far removed from that of the Pergamene altar; i.e., to the first half of the second century B.C.\n[1] \"Italian Note-books,\" under date of March 10,1858.\n[2] \"Modern Painters,\" Part II, Section II, Chap.

        "raw_content": "Home People Literature and the Arts Music: Popular and Jazz: Biographies Cannonball Adderley\nWith Miles Davis Quintet\nSlowed down in the Seventies\nFrom his earliest appearance on the New York jazz scene in 1955, alto saxophonist Julian \u201cCannon-ball\u201d Adderley remained at the forefront of the jazz world\u2014his blues-based tone, Charlie Parker-inspired modernist concepts, and African American religious themes helping to define several of the jazz trends of the postwar era. Paired with the tenor saxophone of John Coltrane in Miles Davis\u2019s quintet during the late 1950s, Adderley emerged as a major exponent of hard bop, or what became known as soul jazz. As leader of his own group, Adderley landed two top-selling hits in the 1970s. During his 20-year career as a nationally known talent, Adderley maintained a remarkable devotion to his music and made great strides in the education and preservation of jazz as an American art form.\nSon of a jazz cornetist, Julian Edwin Adderley was born on September 15, 1928, in Tampa, Florida. He took up the saxophone at age 14 and two years later, while completing his high school studies, fronted his own band at professional engagements. Originally nicknamed \u201cCannibal\u201d by high school friends for his voracious appetite, Adderley\u2019s sobriquet later evolved into Cannonball. Attending Florida A&M University, he became proficient on trumpet and numerous reed instruments. In 1948 he began a stint as a teacher at Dillard High School in Fort Lauderdale, a job he held intermittently until 1956.\nDrafted into the army in 1950, Sergeant Adderley became leader of the 36th Army Dance Band. Among the members of the 36th Army Band were jazz greats like trombonist Curtis Fuller, pianist Junior Mance, and Adderley\u2019s younger brother Nat, a cornetist. As Nat Adderley recalled in Down Beat, \u201cCannonball made some arrangement with the General, so basically all we ever played was dance music and we did very little with the marching band. We played with it on some official functions but other than that we worked with the normal big band of jazz groups.\u201d Living in Washington, D. C., Adderley studied music at Maryland\u2019s U.S. Naval Academy, and from 1952 to 1953 led an army band at Fort Knox, Kentucky.\nPrompted by jump blues saxophonist Eddie \u201cClean-head\u201d Vinson, Adderley and his brother traveled to New York City in 1955. The unknown Adderley soon sat in with the band of bassist Oscar Pettiford at the popular Greenwich Village club Cafe Bohemia. Allowed to take the stage due to the late arrival of bandmember Jerome Richardson, Adderley underwent a fierce initiation when Pettiford called out a furiously paced version of \u201cI\u2019ll Remember April.\u201d But Adderley\u2019s study of Charlie Parker\u2019s alto saxophone solos had prepared him for the challenges of such a breakneck tempo. As jazz historian Leonard Feather wrote in the liner notes to Somethin\u2019 Else, Adderley \u201cmet the challenge with a long solo that just about knocked Pettiford off the stand.\u201d\nBorn Julian Edwin Adderley, September 15, 1928, in Tampa, FL; died of a stroke, August 8, 1975, in Gary, IN. Education: Attended Florida A&M University, until 1948; studied music at U.S. Naval Academy.\nBegan professional career, c. 1944; taught at Dillard High School, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 1948-56; served as bandleader in U.S. Army, 1951-54; signed with Savoy label, 1955; led group with brother Nat, 1956-57; member of Miles Davis band 1957-59; organized second group as leader 1959. Led jazz workshops throughout this career. Member of Jazz Advisory Board of the National Endowment for the Arts.\nFollowing Adderley\u2019s performance at the Cafe Bohemia, he signed a contract with the Savoy label and became a regular member of Pettiford\u2019s band. Attending the band\u2019s performances at the club, Miles Davis often sat and watched the 262-pound alto saxophonist perform. \u201cEverybody knew right away that [Cannonball] was one of the best players around,\u201d Davis said in his autobiography, Miles. \u201cEven white critics were raving about his playing. All the record labels were running after him. Man, he was hot that quick.\u201d\nTo the astonishment of many musicians, Adderley returned to his teaching job in the fall of 1955. But rave reviews and an increasing demand for his presence in New York encouraged Adderley to return to the city in 1956 and form his own quintet with his brother Nat, pianist Junior Mance, and bassist Sam Jones. Plagued by financial difficulties, however, the group disbanded in the fall of the 1957.\nIn October of 1957, Adderley replaced Belgian saxophonist Bobby Jaspar in the Miles Davis Quintet. Davis recalled his early interest in Adderley\u2019s musicianship in Miles, remarking, \u201cI could almost hear him playing in my group the first time I heard him. He had that blues thing and I love me some blues.\u201d Adderley remembered, as quoted in the book Milestones, \u201cI had gotten an offer from [trumpeter] Dizzy [Gillespie] to go with his small band. I was opposite Miles at the Bohemia, told him I was going to join Dizzy, and Miles asked me why I didn\u2019t join him. I told him he never asked me.\u201d After a few months, Miles hired Adderley and took him on the Jazz for Moderns tour. Soon afterward, Davis expanded his group to a sextet, bringing together the saxophones of Adderley and John Coltrane. As Davis explained in Miles, \u201cI felt that Cannonball\u2019s blues-rooted alto sax up against Trane\u2019s harmonic, chordal way of playing, his more free-form approach, would create a new kind of feeling.\u201d\nFor two years the saxophones of Adderley and Coltrane, backed by the drums of \u201cPhilly\u201d Joe Jones and the bass of Paul Chambers, fueled the creative fire of Davis\u2019s group, producing a number of brilliant recordings such as Milestones in 1958 and Kind of Blue in 1959, the latter featuring the jazz classics \u201cSo What\u201d and \u201cAll Blues.\u201d In March of 1958, Davis made a rare guest appearance on Adderley\u2019s critically acclaimed solo album Somethin\u2019 Else\u2014 a session that also showcased the talents of pianist Hank Jones, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Art Blakey. Reflecting on his experience with Davis\u2019s group, Adderley was quoted as saying in Miles: A Biography, \u201cI learned a lot with him. About spacing for one thing, when playing solos. Also he\u2019s the master of understatement. And he taught me a lot about chords, as Coltrane did too.\u201d\nIn September 1959, Adderley left Davis\u2019s group to reform his quintet, reuniting Nat and bassist Sam Jones, along with pianist Bobby Timmons and drummer Louis Hayes. The quintet played hard bop, which, unlike the cool jazz sound of the West Coast, wrote Dizzy Gillespie in To Be or Not to Bop, \u201creasserted the primacy of rhythm and the blues in our music and made you get funky with sweat to play it.\u201d Hard bop, Gillespie added, \u201cwith its more earthy, churchy sound drew a lot of new black fans to our music.\u201d David Rosenthal, in his book Hard Bop, wrote that \u201cwithout renouncing Be bop\u2019s discoveries, [hard bop] won broad popular appeal, reestablishing jazz as a staple product on ghetto jukeboxes.\nWith the popularity of the hard bop sound, Adderley\u2019s group achieved instant success. His ensemble attracted a number of first-rate musicians, including Austrian-born pianist Joe Zawinul, who joined the band in September 1961. The presence of Zawinul in turn enticed saxophonist/flutist Yusef Lateef to join Adderley, which expanded the group to a sextet. \u201cWe did nothing but work 46-47 weeks a year,\u201d recalled Zawinul in Down Beat, \u201coften under the best circumstances. A lot of the time we really had fantastic fun.\u201d\nIn the liner notes to the 1963 album The Cannonball Adderley Sextet in New York, noted jazz producer Orrin Keepnews wrote, \u201cThe saga of Cannonball Adderley\u2019s band \u2026 has unquestionably been one of the most dazzling success stories in modern jazz history.\u201d Unlike many jazz groups of the decade, Adderley\u2019s ensemble scored radio hits, with Zawinul\u2019s compositions \u201cMercy Mercy Mercy\u201d in 1967 and \u201cCountry Preacher\u201d in 1969. During this time, Adderley also collaborated with singers Nancy Wilson, Lou Rawls, and Sergio Mendes.\nThough afflicted by diabetes, Adderley continued to perform live and appear at jazz workshops throughout the 1970s. These seminars consisted of demonstrations and lectures pertaining to both the musical and sociological aspects of jazz. In 1970 Zawinul left the group and was replaced by keyboardist George Duke. In tribute to his ten-year stay with Adderley, Zawinul told Down Beat, \u201cThe parting with Cannon is friendly. I\u2019ll love him forever. It\u2019s been a beautiful association.\u201d\nThe death of Cannonball Adderley from a stroke on August 8, 1975, ended the career of a brilliant musician who left an indelible mark on the postwar jazz community. On Adderley\u2019s death, Dan Morgenstern wrote in Down Beat that the alto master was a \u201cman whose horizon extended beyond musical matters. Cannonball was active in civil rights and support for the arts.\u201d Adderley\u2019s contributions to the Reverend Jesse Jackson\u2019s Operation Bread Basket and as a member of the Jazz Advisory Board of the National Endowment for the Arts reflected his commitment to the role of art and artists in social change. \u201cCannonball was a great artist,\u201d commented Zawinul in Down Beat. \u201cI never knew a musician who knew so much about different subjects. He always read Time and Newsweek, and he could discuss everything from heart surgery to politics. Cannon had more worldly wisdom than any musician I ever met.\u201d This world vision and a true passion for music made Cannonball Adderley an educator of the human experience and a heralded genius during his lifetime and beyond.\nPresenting Cannonball Adderley, Savoy, 1955.\nSomethin\u2019 Else, Blue Note, 1958.\nThe Cannonball Adderley Quintet in San Francisco, Riverside, 1959.\nCannonball Adderley in Chicago, Mercury, 1959.\nCannonball\u2019s Shooters, Mercury.\nCannonball: Jump for Joy, Mercury.\nAt the Lighthouse, Riverside, 1960.\nThem Dirty Blues, Riverside, 1960.\nAfrican Waltz, Riverside, 1961.\nThings Are Getting Better\u2014with Milt Jackson, Riverside.\nCannonball Adderley Quintet Plus, Riverside.\nCannonball Adderley The Poll Winners, Riverside.\nThe Cannonball Adderley Sextet in New York, Riverside, 1963.\nLive Session!

For women in Ethiopia, a number of factors can serve as barriers to accessing family planning services, including illiteracy, early child bearing, gender-based disparities, and religious and traditional influences.\nDespite these challenges, Ethiopia continues to make significant strides toward increasing access to family planning services and advancing maternal and child health. For 25 years, EngenderHealth has worked to bring about this progress by empowering millions of Ethiopian women to stay healthy and decide if, when, and how many children to have\u2014a decision that can determine the course of their lives. Our projects span a wide range of reproductive healthcare services, from expanding contraceptive choice, to ensuring the delivery of high-quality maternal health care, to reducing unsafe abortions. In addition to preventing unwanted pregnancy, EngenderHealth also works to ensure that Ethiopian mothers have the best chance at surviving pregnancy. In partnership with the government of Ethiopia, our current projects reach five out of the nine regional states of Ethiopia and two city administrations, covering a total of 175 Woredas (districts).\nOur work in Ethiopia is creating lasting impact. Since 1987 when we first introduced long-acting and permanent methods (LA/PMs) of contraception in Ethiopia, use of these methods has increased seven-fold at the health facilities we support. As a result, more than 3.5 million more Ethiopian women and men have felt the life-changing benefits of family planning and reproductive health services. In the past five years alone, the contraceptive prevalence rate in Ethiopia has doubled (from 15% in 2006 to 29% in 2011). Through our quarter-century commitment, we continue to empower Ethiopian women to preserve their health and plan their futures\u2014generating power that yields broad benefits and positive change for their families and their communities.",

For more than a decade, people in Washington have come together to fix the problems that have decimated the state\u2019s once plentiful salmon runs. We\u2019ve torn down dams, breached levees, rerouted rivers, planted shorelines, and removed barriers to allow rivers to flow freely once again.\nThese efforts are returning rivers and streams to more natural conditions and reconnecting the many branches of the state\u2019s waterways used by salmon.\nWashington\u2019s actions are beginning to pay off. Salmon are responding and returning to Washington waters in greater numbers in several areas around the state.\nLike the iconic salmon swimming against the current to reach their home waters, Washingtonians still face many challenges before salmon and steelhead will be removed from the Endangered Species Act list. In some areas of the state, growth and development still damage more salmon habitat than is being restored. Climate change is bringing new challenges for salmon. Funding to continue recovery efforts is insufficient to address the long list of needed projects.\nFortunately, Washington has a strong foundation to work through these many obstacles. The \u201cWashington Way\u201d is this state\u2019s community driven, locally based approach to recover salmon. This unique approach has served as a powerful example of successful salmon recovery implementation on the West Coast.

        "raw_content": "Ten things to understand about the Clean Water Act\nThe federal Clean Water Act of 1972 was designed as a logical step-by-step approach to clean up the nation's waterways. Most people acknowledge that the law has been effective in reducing pollution, but industrial and environment groups tend to be on opposite sides when discussing whether regulations and permits adequately protect water quality. These 10 elements of the Clean Water Act (CWA) focus on how the law applies to Puget Sound.\nWater drop image courtesy of Bureau of Ocean Energy and Management\nThe CWA creates a method of defining \"clean\" for streams, lakes and marine waters. Water-quality criteria establish a boundary between acceptable conditions and harmful pollution levels. Such criteria range from temperature to oxygen to a host of specific chemicals. Different sets of criteria are meant to protect different \"designated uses\" of a waterway, such as providing water supplies, allowing recreational activities and sustaining aquatic life. Human-health criteria specify limits for chemicals where people could be eating fish or drinking water from a lake or stream.\nCongress empowered the federal Environmental Protection Agency to enforce the CWA. Secondarily, the EPA was allowed to delegate its regulatory and enforcement authority to states, Indian tribes and territories. In Washington state, the Department of Ecology adopts regulations and oversees implementation of the CWA, although the EPA must first sanction some regulatory actions.\nThe CWA addresses \"point pollution\" from pipes and indirectly deals with \"nonpoint pollution\" from diffuse sources. After the CWA was passed in 1972, the focus was on using permits to limit pollution from industrial facilities and sewage-treatment plants. In the late 1980s, efforts shifted to contaminants in stormwater, which today is considered the greatest source of pollution to Puget Sound.\nPermits cover point pollution and regulated runoff. The formal name for a discharge authorization is National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. NPDES permits cover industrial and wastewater discharges, storm sewer systems in larger cities, stormwater associated with industrial activities, runoff from construction sites that disturb more than one acre, mining operations, and some animal feedlots and aquaculture facilities.\nPermits focus on both numerical limits for pollutants along with the best available technology. Numerical limits on discharges from pipes are set to ensure that the receiving waters can assimilate the contaminants without violating water-quality standards. The technology approach includes limits based on reducing discharges as much as economically reasonable. EPA publishes \"effluent guidelines\" with performance standards for major industrial groups. For a given facility, the more stringent of the two limits - numerical or technological - is the one applied.\nSome facilities qualify for \"general permits.\" Some industrial facilities are so similar to each other that they can be covered with a single \"general permit,\" which is typically quicker and cheaper to obtain than an \"individual permit,\" which is designed for a specific facility. A company applying for a general permit must demonstrate that it can comply with all the requirements in the permit.\nMost individual permits include monitoring requirements. A facility must describe any chemicals suspected of being released in measurable quantities. The permit will then specify which chemicals should be analyzed in the facility's effluent, the testing methods to be used and how often the testing should be done.\nFor a water body that meets water-quality standards, anti-degradation policies come into play. Watershed strategies may be developed to avoid new sources of pollution and to maintain the water quality at acceptable levels.\n\"Impaired\" waters go on a list. When sufficient information demonstrates that a waterway fails to meet one or more water-quality criteria, that waterway is designated as \"impaired\" for those criteria. Ecology must submit to EPA a list of impaired water bodies, called the 303(d) list. Waters that are not listed as impaired go into in one of four separate categories, depending on their health, cleanup status and available information.\nWhen a water body is impaired, a plan is required to restore the waters to a healthy condition. A total maximum daily load, or TMDL, involves an estimate of the total amount of various pollutants that can go into the water, with the goal of meeting the water-quality standards. The TMDL also allocates acceptable loads to all relevant sources, so that the total amount of each pollutant is not exceeded. A TMDL implementation plan includes strategies for reducing the pollutants, including specific allocations for permit holders and reductions for nonpoint sources. If nonpoint reductions fail, then permits must be tightened to reach the goal of clean water.\nRead a full summary of the Clean Water Act from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.\nWater quality, Toxic contaminants, Nutrient pollution, Sewage and fecal pollution, Implementation Strategies\nA summary of the Clean Water Act from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency",

        "title": "Weathering Hurricane Florence",
        "raw_content": "A profound change is taking place in how local municipalities, state and federal agencies, and other organizations prepare for and respond to disasters. Instead of shifting from everyday operations into emergency mode, in which real-time collaboration and communication with the public suddenly become critical, they are being more proactive, employing Web GIS before, during, and after disaster situations to unite their daily operations with emergency needs and foster ongoing cooperation.\nAs Hurricane Florence barreled toward the eastern United States in mid-September 2018, the City of New Bern, North Carolina; the South Carolina Emergency Management Division (SCEMD); and nonprofits including the National Alliance for Public Safety GIS (NAPSG) Foundation and Humanity Road were as ready as they\u2019d ever been to take a direct hit. In large part, that\u2019s because they already had scalable and dependable Web GIS configurations in full use.\nHumanity Road\u2019s heat map of rescue requests in eastern North Carolina helped the coast guard strategically pre-position assets so units could respond to Hurricane Florence quickly and effectively.\n\u201cWeb GIS has progressed to an operational capacity so powerful that organizations can take advantage of it right away, deploying apps to first responders and citizens as soon as the infrastructure and processes are there,\u201d said Ryan Lanclos, Esri\u2019s director of public safety industries. \u201cBeing prepared for the next thing that\u2019s coming\u2014whatever that incident might be\u2014is critical to execute an effective response and recovery. We saw a lot of people proactively taking measures to do that in the lead-up to Hurricane Florence.\u201d\nThe next event always comes sooner than anyone anticipates, so baseline readiness is paramount. Here\u2019s a look at how New Bern, SCEMD, NAPSG Foundation, and Humanity Road leveraged the power of Web GIS\u2014including new special emergency management solutions from Esri\u2014to direct their response and recovery operations in very effective ways.\nReady for Water Rescues and Quick with Damage Assessments\nLocated near the coast at the confluence of two rivers\u2014and about 90 miles from Hurricane Florence\u2019s point of impact\u2014New Bern had prepared for big storms before. Two years prior, when Hurricane Matthew, initially a category 5 storm, was forecasted to roll through the Carolinas, the city set up Esri\u2019s Damage Assessment configuration on Collector for ArcGIS to help emergency responders keep tabs on field resources and conduct damage assessments. But Matthew turned back into the Atlantic Ocean after making brief landfall as a category 1 storm in South Carolina, and New Bern was spared. It was clear this time, however, that the city wouldn\u2019t be so lucky.\n\u201cWhen we heard that Florence was coming and we knew how bad it was going to be, our first thought was to evacuate,\u201d said Alice Wilson, New Bern\u2019s GIS manager. \u201cBut then we knew some of us had to stay here to help the people who stay behind.\u201d\nCity officials set up an emergency operations center (EOC) the day before the storm hit. Wilson and her team tested all their geospatial tools ahead of time, including the Damage Assessment configuration that emergency responders would use out in the field and Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS, which teams in the EOC would employ to oversee operations. They also wanted to be able to provide the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) with as much information as possible as quickly as possible.\n\u201cWe knew, based on our elevation data, [which] areas would be affected,\u201d said Wilson.\nNew Bern recorded approximately $100 million in damage to residential and commercial properties during Hurricane Florence\u2014$75 million to residential properties and $25 million to commercial properties.\nCity officials also knew from Hurricane Irene in 2011 that the Neuse and Trent Rivers that surround New Bern could swell up to seven feet, if not more. Wilson pulled stream gauge data into ArcGIS Desktop so staff in the EOC could monitor the rising rivers. They readied for water rescues.\n\u201cWe\u2019d put a mandatory evacuation in place, but people stayed for one reason or another,\u201d said Wilson.\nWhen Florence hit the afternoon of Friday, September 14, it was an immediate impact. The rivers swelled by 10 feet.\n\u201cWe were getting call after call for water rescues,\u201d she said. \u201cPeople were calling telling us they were in their attics and needed to be rescued.\u201d\nBy 11:30 p.m. that night, staff at the EOC were aware that about 150 people needed to be rescued, according to the City of New Bern\u2019s Twitter account. But that was only half of what was to come.\n\u201cWe got through our stuff and then got a call Sunday morning at 1:00 that [the neighboring town of] Pollocksville needed water rescues,\u201d said Wilson.\nRescue teams from New Bern weren\u2019t familiar with Pollocksville, though. At one point, the fireman in the EOC said his water rescue crew couldn\u2019t find high ground. So Wilson used GIS data from North Carolina\u2019s statewide GIS advisory group and found contour lines for Pollocksville. She employed ArcGIS Desktop to map where that crew was and where it needed to go. Staff in the EOC then used walkie talkies and cell phones to direct the team to higher ground.\n\u201cWe conducted over 300 water evacuations,\u201d said Wilson, \u201cand not even just in our city.\u201d\nUsing data from ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World and local information, such as where street closures and shelters were located, Wilson and her team created online, public-facing maps as well. They posted a tabbed story map on the city\u2019s website that showed stream gauges, wind velocity, and more information about Florence\u2019s sheer potency. They also have a live app that displays all the power outages in New Bern in real time, which proved crucial during the storm, saving city staff untold amounts of time answering phone calls from residents asking about outages.\nWithout question, we just knocked it out of the ballpark and not only helped this city but also helped neighboring cities that didn\u2019t have what we have. Hopefully now we can plan a little better when we rebuild.\nAlice Wilson GIS Manager, City of New Bern\nThe whole time, Wilson manned two computers: one that showed a map of New Bern in ArcGIS Desktop and one that pulled the online maps and apps she and her team had built into a dashboard that everyone in the EOC could see on a big monitor.\n\u201cIt was pretty chaotic, but we tried to make sure we had as much information as possible as Florence came in,\u201d said Wilson.\nThe storm passed through on Sunday, September 16, and the City of New Bern immediately began doing damage assessments using the Damage Assessment configuration it had set up in Collector. Utility workers, firefighters, and inspectors\u2014from both New Bern and outside cities\u2014jumped in to help.\nSome of them had never used Collector before, let alone the Damage Assessment configuration, so Wilson and her colleagues trained them quickly and sent them into the field. Utility workers went first to the houses they knew had been completely inundated by water to see what they would need to do to restore service. Firefighters and inspectors went out in pairs to examine any fire concerns and record all the destruction using the app.\n\u201cWe had significant damage,\u201d said Wilson. \u201cThe storm surge affected us the most.\u201d\nLarge bear statues that usually adorn the entrances of certain businesses were found floating down the street. (Photo courtesy of the City of New Bern.)\nIn addition to the heavy flooding that deluged some parts of town, New Bern had four feet of water inside its historic downtown buildings. Big bear statues that usually stand outside certain businesses were floating down the street. And a few yachts ended up landbound, stranded next to houses and even a hotel.\nBy the following Friday\u2014just seven days after Hurricane Florence hit\u2014New Bern had finished its damage assessments.\n\u201cAll the houses that were really damaged fell right where we thought they would,\u201d said Wilson. \u201cSo we knew our data was good.\u201d\nInspectors recorded an estimated $100 million of losses to both commercial and residential properties. Although that number is breathtaking\u2014especially for a city of 30,000 residents\u2014Wilson was impressed by how fast New Bern recorded this much damage.\n\u201cI was here when we had Hurricane Irene, [which] was probably the worst hurricane that I\u2019ve been a part of,\u201d said Wilson. \u201cBack then, inspectors would use these forms that were FEMA generated, and they would go handwrite all this information. They would bring it back to me, and I would have to enter it all. It was so time-consuming. You were trying to read somebody\u2019s handwriting, and after a while, they would just scribble something because they were so tired.\u201d\nThe Damage Assessment configuration, which works on both Collector and Survey123 for ArcGIS, is so much faster, according to Wilson.\n\u201cBecause it\u2019s spatially located, I don\u2019t have to do anything,\u201d she said. \u201cWe were sharing this live. We [didn\u2019t] have to process it and turn it around.\u201d\nAs of that same Friday, FEMA was already aware of New Bern\u2019s damage assessment values.\n\u201cI can\u2019t even think of the amount of time we\u2019ve saved,\u201d said Wilson. \u201cEsri tools\u2026have been instrumental in getting us back on our feet.\u201d\nWith only a few injuries and no deaths recorded in New Bern due to Hurricane Florence, Wilson said she has never been prouder of her community.\n\u201cWithout question, we just knocked it out of the ballpark and not only helped this city but also helped neighboring cities that didn\u2019t have what we have,\u201d said Wilson. \u201cHopefully now we can plan a little better when we rebuild.\u201d\nA Changing Storm Leads to a Surprise Floor Event\nWhen Hurricane Florence set in on South Carolina, Charlie Kaufman, the GIS manager at SCEMD, was well equipped to be agile.\n\u201cSouth Carolina Emergency Management as a whole is a support agency for county and local governments,\u201d explained Kaufman, who is essentially a one-man GIS shop. \u201cMy role as the GIS manager for the emergency management division is making GIS products to support not only agencies that are assisting at the state level but, if I can, also making GIS products that can support counties.\u201d\nThe products he puts together range widely, from hundreds of GIS layers and web apps to dashboard-based situation reports and predictive flood models. For Hurricane Florence, this array of GIS proved indispensable, since over the course of just a few days, the nature of the storm changed several times, affecting everyone\u2019s response operations.\nSouth Carolina Emergency Management Division\u2019s (SCEMD) Know Your Zone web page received more than 900,000 views.\n\u201cWe initially thought a category 4 storm was going to broadside us,\u201d said Kaufman. So South Carolina governor Henry McMaster ordered a mandatory evacuation for several coastal counties. He encouraged people to go to SCEMD\u2019s Know Your Zone web page to determine if they were likely going to be affected by the storm surge.\n\u201cOur hurricane Know Your Zone website really got engaged,\u201d recalled Kaufman, who used ArcGIS Online to host the map. \u201cMy final tally for that was I had over 900,000 views on it.\u201d\nAt this point, SCEMD began planning search and rescue and life safety response operations. Kaufman readied his search and rescue grid map. He also used Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS to make web maps that first responders could take out into the field and use on their tablets and smartphones.\n\u201cWe have a statewide common operating picture\u2026that\u2019s already in a web application that we use to monitor disasters all the time,\u201d explained Kaufman. \u201cI have about 300 GIS layers ready to go so I can create offshoots of that on the fly if I need to.\u201d\nAlthough a lot of water dropped in South Carolina when Florence made landfall, it didn\u2019t end up being the category 4 storm SCEMD had been expecting. While emergency responders commenced operations as soon as the wind stopped blowing, some of the people who had evacuated started to come back, thinking that all threats from Florence were over. But then the rain didn\u2019t stop, and a lot of the water that deluged North Carolina headed south. That\u2019s when the rivers started to rise.\n\u201cIt turned out to be a flood event,\u201d said Kaufman. \u201cWe weren\u2019t expecting that much rain, so the flood event was a surprise.\u201d\nThe response was protracted, which required continued collaboration across several agencies. Kaufman built internal daily situation reports in Operations Dashboard and sent them out to everyone involved in the response so they could get an overview of what was going on.\n\u201cThat had county closures, shelter numbers, [and] a quick weather radar of significant events that were happening in the state,\u201d he explained. And it was just a modified version of the standard daily situation report SCEMD sends out on \u201cblue-sky days,\u201d when no emergencies are taking place, so it was easy to get up and running because people were already well-versed in using the app.\nWe\u2019re getting better every time we do this, with practice\u2014though we wish we didn\u2019t have the practice.\nCharlie Kaufman GIS Manager, South Carolina Emergency Management Division\nKaufman also used flood models from the Department of Natural Resources, the National Guard\u2019s data and briefing maps, and his own web apps and maps to layer all this information and get an idea of where floodwaters were predicted to rise and fall. This helped all responding agencies allocate resources appropriately.\n\u201cThe flood covered a large area, so they worked downriver as it [developed], trying to stay ahead,\u201d said Kaufman. \u201cThe National Guard sandbagged highways, trying to keep some of them open. The coast guard was out there with police and other law enforcement doing rescues, too.\u201d\nWhile many search and rescue crews do still request paper maps from Kaufman (which he gladly supplies and updates to keep response efforts moving forward), he did see an uptick in use of his Web GIS products during Hurricane Florence. The search and rescue grid app, for instance, got more than 500 hits. And the Florence imagery viewer, which Kaufman built using photos from the Civil Air Patrol and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), received several hundred hits, too.\n\u201cWe\u2019re getting better every time we do this, with practice\u2014though we wish we didn\u2019t have the practice,\u201d said Kaufman. \u201cThe mapping products are getting better, people are able to better use the products out in the field, and they\u2019re asking better questions of what they want. [\u2026] ArcGIS Online is getting better, so are REST services. You can pull NOAA weather feeds in [and] you can give them weather maps [as] web maps or hard copy.\u201d\nUltimately, said Kaufman, he was able to give emergency responders better data, allowing them to make better decisions.\nCreating Real-Time Common Operational Pictures\nWhile local municipalities and state agencies throughout the Carolinas did what they could to mitigate injuries and damage from Hurricane Florence, two remarkable nonprofits\u2014NAPSG Foundation and Humanity Road\u2014employed GIS to give search and rescue crews, emergency managers, and evacuated residents a real-time picture of what was happening on the ground. With Web GIS at the center of their workflows, both organizations were able to map crowdsourced photos and share critical, on-the-ground information with people who needed it.\n\u201cPhotos are worth a thousand words, but putting a photo on a map makes those thousand words actionable,\u201d said Paul Doherty, program manager at NAPSG Foundation.\nThe National Alliance for Public Safety GIS (NAPSG) Foundation partnered with GISCorps to stand up a story map with crowdsourced photos from areas affected by Hurricane Florence.\nAs just one part of its larger mission to incorporate geospatial technology more deeply into public safety and emergency preparedness, NAPSG Foundation partnered with another nonprofit, GISCorps, to stand up an Esri Story Maps app with crowdsourced photos from areas affected by Hurricane Florence.\n\u201cAcross the entire impact area, there\u2019s no single place to go to find images of what it looks like on the ground. But it\u2019s not as simple as just putting a story map out and hoping people will add photos,\u201d explained Doherty. \u201cThe general public is hopefully out of the affected area and is not going to take the time to add a photo. But reporters and first responders are posting photos to Twitter and Facebook\u2014they\u2019re just not georeferenced. So if you\u2019re an emergency manager, those photos slip through the cracks. They never get mapped. GISCorps [volunteers] look at the photos and say, \u2018there\u2019s a street address, a business name, a street name,\u2019 and they put that [photo] on the map.\u201d\nWith this resource, search and rescue teams were able to see the conditions they were about to head into. And when FEMA was trying to figure out if certain shelters got flooded, staff were able to check the story map to see images of each location.\nJust as photos get lost in the fray during an emergency, so does valuable information, such as where shelters are located or whether there are communication outages.\n\u201cSometimes the public doesn\u2019t know where to go for official information because the event is so large and moves so fast,\u201d said Cat Graham, the chief operations officer of Humanity Road, which sends out reports during disaster situations that list local officials; websites that display power outage information; and the status of local hospitals, airports, and other critical infrastructure. Not only does this help the public navigate events like hurricanes, but it also assists aid agencies as they prepare to service those areas.\n\u201cMany people don\u2019t realize that power companies are mandated to provide a public power outage map, but communications companies are not. So it becomes challenging to get information,\u201d continued Graham. \u201cWe wonder, are we not seeing cries for help because there are none or are we not seeing cries for help because there\u2019s no communication in that area?\u201d\nPhotos are worth a thousand words, but putting a photo on a map makes those thousand words actionable.\nPaul Doherty Program Manager, National Alliance for Public Safety GIS Foundation\nTo help fix this problem, the US Coast Guard activated Humanity Road for Hurricane Florence to provide a live strategic map of search and rescue requests emerging on social media\u2014a first for disaster-related digital deployments. Humanity Road\u2019s diverse group of volunteers scoured social media feeds from about 700 cities and 30 counties for hashtags and keywords such as \u201chelp\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m trapped\u201d to identify legitimate requests for assistance. Meanwhile, two US Coast Guard Academy cadets, Reid Wiegleb and Evan Twarog (who were volunteering with Humanity Road) built geospatial information products, including a heat map\u2014hosted in ArcGIS Online\u2014of rescue requests that coast guard command centers were able to consume. This gave decision-makers and first responders a common operational picture of what was happening on the ground so they could position assets effectively.\n\u201cYou might have seven different teams doing seven different tasks,\u201d said Graham. \u201cWhen you get all those seven together and you can make a common map, you get a beautiful picture of exactly what\u2019s happening on the ground.\u201d\nBoth nonprofits want to see local, state, and federal organizations use geospatial information and GIS more robustly during nonemergencies as well so they can be ready to use it when disaster does strike.\n\u201cGeospatial information and tools are no longer a nice-to-have for public safety agencies,\u201d said NAPSG Foundation executive director Peter O\u2019Rourke. \u201cIt will absolutely change the decisions [being] made if you use it on an ongoing basis.\u201d\nCheck out Esri\u2019s new solutions for emergency management operations.",

That\u2019s sounds great but it also means our skin is going to be subjected to that much more sunlight\u2026 While most of us think we know the basics of sun protection, we still see a large number of people with sun-damaged skin that could easily have been avoided in the first place. So, in this article we\u2019re going to share some of the lesser-known skincare facts to help you to stay safe in the sun!\nChoose the right SPF level\nMany people think that the SPF or \u201csun protection factor\u201d indicates how strong the sun cream is. But what it actually refers to is how long the cream will keep you protected from Ultraviolet B (UVB) rays. The number we find on sun cream indicates how much longer you should be able to stay in the sun before burning. To work out the correct SPF for you, you first need to calculate how long it would normally take you to burn in the sun (in minutes) if you weren\u2019t wearing any sun cream\u2026\nThis number is then multiplied by the SPF number to tell you how many minutes you should be able to stay out in the sun without burning when wearing the sun cream. So, if you would normally burn in 10 minutes without any protection, with factor 30 sun cream you should be able to stay outside (theoretically) for 300 minutes.\nWe recommend factor 30 or higher as that\u2019s adequate for normal beach/pool use. Beware when using sunscreen with higher SPFs over 30 as they tend to give people a false sense of security. Additionally, you\u2019re also subjecting your skin to higher doses of chemicals with the stronger creams\u2026 Also, research shows that sunscreen with values above SPF 50 provide no more protection than those below that number\u2026\nChoose a sunscreen with both UVA and UVB coverage\nTraditionally, people have been more concerned about Ultraviolet B (UVB) rays than Ultraviolet A (UVA) rays because these tend to impact the surface of the skin more, and this is where most skin cancers occur.\nHowever, we also need to be careful about UVA because it causes damage on a deeper level:\nleading to skin aging and wrinkling. Additionally, new research shows that this UVA damage also\ncontributes to, and may even cause, skin cancer.\nThis is why it\u2019s a good idea to make sure your sun cream provides broad spectrum protection against both types of damaging ultraviolet light.\nKnow what\u2019s in your sun screen\nA clear understanding of the ingredients in your sun block is important because some of the chemicals used are potential hormone disruptors, allergens or are just plain unnecessary\u2026\nRetinoids (a form of vitamin A) are a common ingredient in sun creams. Unfortunately, lab studies have shown that retinoids can actually increase the risk of skin cancer. They have also been linked to birth defects in pregnant women.\nLook out for a sun cream that is PABA-free. PABA stands for Para-aminobenzoic acid: a long-term favourite ingredient in sunscreen that can cause allergic reactions in some people. High doses of PABA have also been linked to severe liver toxicity.\nAnother common ingredient to avoid is Oxybenzone which has been linked to hormone disruption and may also cause photo allergic reactions.\nSun creams are often combined with insect repellents but, although on the surface this may seem to make sense, it isn\u2019t necessarily a good thing: the insect repellent can reduce the effectiveness of the sunscreen, and the sunscreen can enhance the toxicity of the insect repellent. So if you\u2019re going somewhere hot where there are a lot of mosquitos or other hungry insects, experts recommend using two separate products.\nIf you\u2019re going to be swimming or sweating a lot, it\u2019s important to choose a water-resistant sun cream. But remember that there\u2019s no such thing as a 100% waterproof sunblock, so make sure to reapply the cream often, according to the manufacturer\u2019s instructions.\nFinding a sunscreen that suits you and that you won\u2019t mind wearing will take some trial and error. Sunscreens come in different consistencies and fragrances so try different brands and types of sunscreen. Sport versions tend to be gooey and stronger smelling than the daily versions.\nSpray on, roll on, powder, stick and lotion types are all available, but experts warn that the spray on and powder sunscreens may cause irritation to the lungs due to the higher risk or inhalation. Additionally, these two types may provide less effective coverage of your skin when compared to liquid sun creams, so start your search for the right sunscreen there.\nIf you wear a daily moisturising cream, you\u2019ll know that many include some degree of sun protection. However, if you\u2019d like complete coverage, you\u2019ll need to supplement your moisturiser with a dedicated sunscreen. Apply the moisturiser first and then add the sunscreen after that to maximise absorption and enhance protection.\nAvoid using sun cream on babies under 6 months. Experts say that keeping to the shade is the best option for babies \u2013 whether that\u2019s natural shade or just from an umbrella. If you feel you can\u2019t avoid using sunscreen for babies, please consult with a doctor first.\nWhen choosing sunblock for children or for people with sensitive skin, consider mineral-based UV filters such as titanium and zinc. These are considered among the safest and are the least likely to result in an allergic reaction. That said, these mineral-based solutions tend to be less effective than chemical-based versions.\nBefore applying sun cream on children, spot test it by applying a small amount on a particular area and waiting to see if your child has any adverse reactions.\nApply sunscreen liberally\nApplied properly, sunscreen tends to run out quickly, so make sure you have enough. During an extended outing to the beach you should be using between a quarter to half of a 240ml/8-ounce bottle.\nWhen you apply sunscreen, apply a golf ball sized amount (about enough to fill a shot glass) but apply it little-by-little, rubbing gently into the skin in layers until you have a thorough coating. For difficult to reach areas like the back and shoulders, get a friend to help.\nCover the most vulnerable areas of the body first, starting with the head. Apply sun cream over the entire face and forehead, paying special attention to the nose, ears and the back of the neck. Other vulnerable areas include the backs of the arms, knees and the top of your feet, especially if wearing sandals or flip-flops.\nPut on your sunscreen in advance\nTry to get your sunscreen applied fully at least 30 minutes before you go out into the sun.\nReapply often, especially if you\u2019re sweating or swimming and drying off with a towel. Err on the side of caution and reapply more frequently than the directions on the bottle.\nThrow away old sunscreen \u2013 anything over 3 years old will be much less effective than something freshly-purchased. Also, any bottle that\u2019s been left open for a long time may have been exposed to germs, so throw that out, too.\nFinally, remember to stay safe and have fun wherever you\u2019re sunning yourself this summer. A little common sense and a bottle of good quality sun cream will keep you and your skin healthy and feeling youthful!\nNatural Teeth Whitening \u2013 the Foods that Whiten TeethBeauty, Teeth Whitening",

It is one of the two songs on the album to feature Alter Bridge frontman Myles Kennedy on lead vocals, the other being \u201cStarlight.\u201d The song was written and recorded in March 2010 added to the album\u2019s track listing at the last minute since Slash was so impressed with Kennedy\u2019s performance on \u201cStarlight.\u201d He later asked Kennedy to front his solo touring band. Both \u201cBack from Cali\u201d and \u201cStarlight\u201d have since become regular features in Slash\u2019s live shows.\nThe music video debuted in March 2010.",

        "raw_content": "Real Estate slow down in Spain puts Spanish savings banks at risk\nAmerican Agency Moody\u2019s detects 5 Spanish savings banks at risk.\nFinancial analysts at Moody\u2019s believe, like the Spanish government, that property prices in Spain will continue to rise slowly. However, the agency doesn\u2019t rule out other possibilities such as a slight drop in prices in the Spanish property market. It believes that if this situation arises then Spanish banks, above all regional building societies which have lent a lot of money to construction firms, will be hit the hardest.\nThe American agency thinks that banks and savings banks are more at risk from construction firms defaulting on their payments than families who can\u2019t pay their mortgages. With regards to those who fall behind on their rent the European Association of Arbitration has pointed out that if this occurs then it is almost always during the first few months of the rental contract being signed. Although, the most pessimistic forecast of a property crash occurring in Spain has been ruled out for now, a lot depends on macroeconomics and the healthy evolution of the world economy.\nWhile the number of individuals and families who can\u2019t keep up their mortgage repayments is still very low in Spain, the percentage of mortgage defaulters has been rising steadily. While in March it was just 0.462% this rose to 0.506% in June. This could be a cause for concern for savings banks who have granted loans to construction companies, given that the figure was under 0.3% just two and a half years ago. Moody\u2019s has identified 5 Spanish savings banks particularly at risk, although it has declined to name them.\nRelated: Spanish banks # Spanish savings banks # Ranking of Spanish banks\n:loans mortgages spanish real estate market\nHigh-quality Spanish houses to be marketed in the UK\nCheaper new housing in Spain\nSpain\u2019s building industry falling more than other EU members",

        "raw_content": "Everyday Health Pain Management Carpal Tunnel\nWhat Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? A Definitive Guide to Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment\nRA Hand Numbness\nCarpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that can cause pain or numbness in the hand and arm.\nCarpal tunnel syndrome is caused by a pinched nerve in the wrist. (1)\nThe carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway on the palm side of the wrist. One of the main nerves in the hand \u2014 the median nerve \u2014 passes through this space in the wrist on its way to the hand.\nThe median nerve runs from the neck down through the arm to the hand. It controls the muscles at the base of the thumb. It also carries signals about sensation from the thumb, index, long, and ring fingers to the brain.\nCarpal tunnel syndrome happens when the carpal tunnel becomes narrowed or when the tissues around the tendons passing through the carpal tunnel become swollen, putting pressure on the median nerve.\nEase Rheumatoid Arthritis Hand and Wrist Pain With At-Home Exercises\n6 Best Foods for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nNatural Ways to Ease Carpal Tunnel Pain\nPressure Around the Median Nerve Can Increase\nThis abnormal pressure can pinch the median nerve, causing pain, weakness, numbness or tingling in the hand and fingers. Sometimes carpal tunnel syndrome can cause pain or numbness in the lower part of the arm as well. These symptoms usually start gradually and worsen over time.\nLearn More About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms and Diagnosis\nHand Numbness With Rheumatoid Arthritis: Symptom or Complication?\nCan At-Home Exercises Relieve Rheumatoid Arthritis Hand and Foot Pain?\n8 Hacks That Can Help Hand Pain\nTreatment May Be More Important Than Prevention\nIt\u2019s not clear whether carpal tunnel syndrome can be prevented. And if left untreated, carpal tunnel syndrome can lead to serious, permanent damage to the nerves of the hand, fingers, and thumb. The good news is that carpal tunnel syndrome is usually very treatable. (2)\nLearn More About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment\nThe Prevalence of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nCarpal tunnel syndrome is a common nerve condition. It affects between 4 and 10 million Americans. (3) According to the physician-run website UpToDate, that\u2019s about 1 to 5 percent of the U.S. population. (4)\nCarpal tunnel syndrome typically appears in middle-aged and older adults. It occurs less often in younger people.\nWomen are about 3 times as likely as men to develop carpal tunnel syndrome. That may be at least partly due to relatively smaller wrist bones in many women, creating a tighter space or tunnel for tendons and nerves to pass through. (5)\nHormonal changes \u2014 especially those that occur during menopause \u2014 may also play a role. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says women are most likely to experience carpal tunnel syndrome between the ages of 45 and 54. (5)\nPreventing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome May Not Be Possible, But Healthy Eating Won\u2019t Hurt\nWhile there\u2019s no known way to prevent the development of carpal tunnel syndrome, there is evidence that certain healthy eating styles may help quell the systemic inflammation that contributes to pain.\nLearn More About Diet and The Best Foods for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nRheumatoid Arthritis Diabetes Hypothyroidism Lupus Breast Cancer Menopause Obesity Arm Pain\nCauses and Risk Factors for Developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nSometimes the cause of carpal tunnel syndrome is obvious. For instance, a wrist sprain or break could narrow the carpal tunnel passage and pinch the median nerve. Or rheumatoid arthritis could cause painful inflammation in the wrist joint. (2)\nMany times, there is no single cause, or it\u2019s not clear how or why the median nerve got pinched.\nMost cases of carpal tunnel are due to a combination of factors. (2)\nLearn More About Natural Ways to Ease Carpal Tunnel Pain\nThere are a number of risk factors that may increase your chances of developing carpal tunnel syndrome.\nFemale Gender Women are 3 times as likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome as men.\nPregnancy Hormonal changes during pregnancy can cause wrist swelling that pinches the median nerve, especially during the last few months. Carpal tunnel syndrome almost always goes away after childbirth. (5)\nMenopause Hormonal changes during menopause may put women at greater risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome. (5)\nHeredity According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, heredity may be an imporant risk factor for carpal tunnel syndrome. Traits that can run in families \u2014 differences in wrist anatomy that create a tighter passageway, for instance \u2014 may predispose some people to developing carpal tunnel syndrome. (1)\nObesity Some studies suggest that having a high body mass index (BMI) may increase the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome. (4)\nBraces, Splints, and the Importance of Resting Joints\nRheumatoid Arthritis Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory condition that can can cause swelling and inflammation around the tendons in your wrist and put pressure on the median nerve. (3)\nLearn More About Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hand Numbness\nDiabetes Scientists aren\u2019t exactly sure why people with diabetes are more likely to experience carpal tunnel syndrome. One theory is that nerve damage caused by diabetes may make some people more susceptible to the condition. (2)\nOther Medical Conditions Conditions such as hypothyroidism, lupus, breast cancer, and connective tissue diseases may raise your risk of carpal tunnel syndrome. (5)\nRepetitive Hand and Wrist Use There\u2019s some evidence that repeating the same hand and wrist motions for a prolonged period of time may irritate the wrist tendons and put pressure on the median nerve. A large review of studies published in September 2015 in the journal BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders found consistent evidence that people whose work related tasks involve repetitive hand or wrist motions (cashiers, hairdressers, sewers, carpenters) are at higher risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome. (6)\nSmoking It\u2019s not yet clear whether smoking increases the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome, although the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says that smokers with carpal tunnel syndrome may have worse symptoms and recover more slowly than nonsmokers. (5)\nSome activities can cause carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms to flare up, but these activities are not usually causes of the condition.\nCarpal tunnel syndrome triggers may include: (7)\nHolding a telephone\nCarpal Tunnel Syndrome Medication\nSterapred (prednisone) Solu-Medrol (methylprednisolone) Orapred (prednisolone) Celestone Soluspan (betamethasone) Motrin or Advil (ibuprofen) Aleve (naproxen sodium) Aspirin\nMyths and Facts About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nPeople used to think that carpal tunnel syndrome was caused by too much use of computer keyboards and other tech devices, including cellphones, PDAs, and video game controls.\nThat\u2019s probably not true. A number of studies in recent years have failed to find a connection between computer keyboards, tech use, and carpal tunnel syndrome. (4)\nAnother myth is that you need surgery to fix carpal tunnel syndrome. Most people can get relief from carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms with nonsurgical treatments. (8)\nSurgery for carpal tunnel syndrome can be very effective. But surgery typically is only considered in people whose pain doesn\u2019t go away after trying other treatments such as splints and steroid injections.

        "raw_content": "Though its great days are past, its palaces and castles deserted, Gondar is one of Ethiopia's most fascinating cities and one of the world's most mysterious. By road this ancient set\u00adtlement, which stands at the foot of tile Simien Mountains, is 750 kilometers north of the capital Addis Ababa.\nSet in a landscape of incompar\u00adable beauty, Gondar, which became the royal capital of Ethiopia in the 17th century under Emperor Fasiladas who built the first and most famous of its castles, is rich in fabulous his\u00adtory and ancient monuments.\nUntil the 16th century, the emperors of Ethiopia usually had no fixed capital, instead living in tents in temporary royal camps as they moved around their realms while their family, bodyguard and retinue devoured surplus crops and cut down nearby trees for firewood.\nDuring unsettled periods between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, Ethiopian rulers moved their royal camps frequently. King Fasil (Fasiledes) settled in Gondar and established it as a permanent capital in 1636. After Fasil, successive kings continued building, improving the techniques and architectural style. Before its decline in the late eighteenth century, the royal court had developed from a camp into a fortified compound called Fasil Ghebbi, consisting of six major building complexes surrounded by a wall 900 metres long. There are some twenty palaces and royal buildings and thirty churches in the area.\nHandicrafts, painting, literature and music flourished in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Fasil Ghebbi is included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites List. The campaign also covers the royal Fasiledes Bath and the restoration of the celebrated painting in the Church of Debre Berhan Selassie.",

        "raw_content": "Two new studies show how EHR data can inform practice and improve individual and community health.\nTwo new journal articles authored by Department of Family Medicine (DFM) faculty, staff and colleagues demonstrate the increasingly important role that electronic health record (EHR) data plays in informing clinical practice\u2014and improving the health of individuals and communities.\nThe articles are based on studies that used data from the University of Wisconsin Electronic Health Record \u2013 Public Health Information Exchange (PHINEX) database, which links de-identified EHR data from UW Health primary care clinics in south-central Wisconsin with census-derived socioeconomic and demographic variables.\nPinpointing Childhood Obesity Determinants, Disparities\nBoth articles focus on data related to childhood obesity, one of the most pressing public health concerns in the U.S.\nIn the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, investigators showed that EHR data analysis is a promising, cost-effective way to identify childhood obesity rates for the purposes of public surveillance, health promotion, and tracking intervention effectiveness.\nDisparities in childhood obesity rates are evident in children as young as two to five years old.\nThe association between economic hardship and childhood obesity is significant among non-Hispanic white children.\nThe effects of economic hardship on obesity are amplified in older children, regardless of race or ethnicity.\nNotably, they found that racial and ethnic disparities in childhood obesity rates were evident in children as young as two to five years old\u2014a finding that underscores the need for early intervention for at-risk children.\nIn Pediatric Obesity, investigators found that childhood obesity rates were positively associated with the economic hardship index (EHI), a composite measure of community-level low socioeconomic status.\nMore specifically, they found that the association between economic hardship and childhood obesity was significant among non-Hispanic white children (Hispanic and non-Hispanic black children had high obesity rates across all EHI levels). They also found that the effects of economic hardship on obesity were amplified in older children, regardless of race or ethnicity.\n\u201cElectronic health records provide powerful population health data that, when viewed in the context of communities, can represent health events happening across Wisconsin and at the local level,\u201d explained DFM Research Director Lawrence Hanrahan, PhD, MS, an author on both papers. \u201cThis research strives to harness EHR data to improve patient care and community health.\u201d\nThe PHINEX database is a collaboration between the UW Departments of Family Medicine, the UW Department of Pediatrics, and the UW Department of Medicine.",

        "title": "Meet The First People Who Can Say They Have A Vine Agent",
        "raw_content": "Meet The First People Who Can Say They Have A Vine Agent\nGary Vaynerchuk launched a talent agency for Vine this week. Here\u2019s a first look at the talent he has signed up.\n\u201cI just saw a fake palm tree and a man watching television in a deli, and he looked incredibly bored,\u201d explains Nicholas Megalis. \u201cAnd I felt like I just had to film it.\u201d\nHe breaks into jingle-like song: \u201cFake palm tree and a bored guy and a TV, too.\u201d\n\u201cWhat\u2019s cool about it,\u201d he says, \u201cis that anybody can sing about their life.\u201d\nThat may be true. But not everybody can collect 341,000 Vine followers while doing it. Megalis is part of a small group of Vine users who have an agent, famed social media consultant Gary Vaynerchuk.\nVaynerchuk says he started his Vine talent agency, Grape Story, partly because he thinks success on Vine requires a unique skill. \u201cIt\u2019s so weird to say you\u2019re looking for that \u2018it\u2019 factor,\u201d he says. \u201cThis takes a very specific science. We\u2019re looking for people who aren\u2019t famous for anything else other than they artistically figured out how to story-tell in six seconds.\u201d\nThose aren\u2019t necessarily the same people who have large followings elsewhere on the Internet, he says.\nRudy Mancuso, another Grape Story talent, for instance, has about 4,000 YouTube subscribers. He has 616,000 Vine followers.\nMuch of this disparity no doubt comes from an early adopter advantage on Vine. But it\u2019s also true that Vine\u2019s short time limit and looping effect call for a different approach. \u201cEven though it\u2019s six seconds, it still has to have a beginning, middle, and end whether it\u2019s explicit or not,\u201d Mancuso says. \u201cSo I think, okay, how can I deliver some kind of six-second progression with a bang that delivers something.\u2026 The fact that it loops actually gives a lot of flexibility for comedy.\u201d\nThe aspiring filmmaker often plays characters in his Vine videos (In one recent video, four of them appear to toss a beer to each other). In others, he rushes his mother with statements like, \u201cMom! I just got verified on Vine!\u201d and records her reactions. Click through enough of his clips, and you\u2019ll find a few that don\u2019t match\u2013moments when he plays the piano or guitar and isn\u2019t trying to be funny.\nNow that Instagram hosts 15-second videos, Mancuso says he\u2019ll probably host his music and film work there. \u201cThey\u2019re two completely different platforms,\u201d he says. \u201cInstagram video, you can kind of edit it a little more precisely, you have more time, it doesn\u2019t really loop. So it\u2019s a different thing.\u201d\nMegalis, who has toured nationally as a musician, says he gets most of his Vine inspiration from walking around, which didn\u2019t necessarily happen when he was only posting on YouTube.\n\u201cI\u2019m walking down the street and I see a dead animal, or an amazingly dressed guy who just looks so elegant and awesome, and I feel compelled to sing about them,\u201d he says. \u201cI feel like everybody who watches it is part of my little daily, Brooklyn, New York, musical with pugs and old men sitting outside smoking cigars.\u201d\nMegalis and Mancuso\u2019s first Grape Story client is Virgin Mobile. The brand will pay the Vine creators per each video they make that incorporates a Virgin Mobile message. Other Grape Story clients include Jordan Burt, Curtis Lepore (Twitter bio: \u201cIm pretty good at vine n stuf\u201d), QPark, Marlo Meekins, and Pinot.\nWhether brand demand for Vine talent can actually support a talent agency\u2013especially with the new option to post videos on Instagram\u2019s much more popular platform\u2013is anybody\u2019s guess, but recording six-second videos is not a bad gig if you have what it takes.\n\u201cI literally just love making a hot dog mustache,\u201d Megalis says. \u201cI literally just filmed myself.\u201d\n[Spotlight: Yarygin via Shutterstock]",

        "raw_content": "These Couples Couldn\u2019t Be Closer: They\u2019re Vacuum Packed Together\nThese pictures look like a sex experiment gone wrong. But they\u2019re actually advertising for a Japanese condom brand called Condomania.\nThe images are the work of Japanese photographer Hal, who has photographed 150 couples inside plastic bags, wrapping them up, then vacuuming out the air. The effect is profound (and profoundly strange), showing couples completely entwined at their most intimate: freeze-packed love.\nIn an email, Hal explains that he meets couples in bars and asks them if they\u2019d like to be photographed. \u201cI seek couples anytime anywhere. I show them a kind of sample photo which I always put it in my pocket,\u201d he writes. \u201cThen I ask them to model for my work directory.\u201d\nPR firm Ogilvy & Mather Japan used Hal\u2019s work to sell Condomania condoms.\nHal writes: \u201cI\u2019ve been photographing couples in small, or even cramped spaces like motels and bathtubs. As my work has become more and more intense, I\u2019ve noticed that communication is indispensable. This time, I reached the point of photographing couples in vacuum-sealed packs, in a set that I\u2019ve constructed in my own kitchen.\u201d\nHe has to be quick. Once he gets them inside the plastic, there are only 10 seconds before the couple starts running out of breath. It\u2019s like they start suffocating in each other\u2019s presence.",

        "title": "This New Car-Free Neighborhood Redesigns Suburbia",
        "raw_content": "This New Car-Free Neighborhood Redesigns Suburbia\nA new development in Mannheim, Germany, is the ultimate walkable community.\nIt\u2019s possible that some people might own a car in a new neighborhood designed for Mannheim, Germany. But they won\u2019t be able to drive up to their doors: The entire neighborhood is car-free, with parking hidden underground.\nInstead of roads, the neighborhood will have sidewalks that connect with paths in a surrounding park. \u201cEssentially the project recreates the park experience on a residential scale, and removing the road allows the park to permeate throughout the site unrestricted,\u201d says Johannes Pilz, one of the architects from the design firm MVRDV, which worked on the development for Traumhaus, a German affordable housing developer.\n\u201cBy getting rid of the cars, you then open up the streets, whether it\u2019s for children to come out and play with each other, or to encourage residents to sit outside their house, chat with one another, or go for a stroll,\u201d he says. \u201cBy getting rid of the [pavement] barrier between households, you then increase interactions between neighbors, and the community then starts to bond.\u201d\nThe neighborhood will also try to deliberately build diversity. Instead of the standard suburban pattern of long rows of single-family homes, the development will include a mix of different sized houses and apartments designed for young couples, students, the elderly, and families. Residents can pick the design that matches their needs; a new family might choose a house built on stilts with room to expand and build out the first floor if they later need the space.\nBecause the development will maintain a ratio of different housing types, it hopes to stay relatively diverse and avoid gentrification. The houses are also designed to be affordable to build. Like Traumhaus\u2019s other developments, using standardized components makes mass production cheaper. MVRDV just tweaked those basic components to create a catalog of variations.\n\u201cTo come up with different, more innovative variations of their designs doesn\u2019t require any expensive modification, it just requires more in-depth thinking into how people live their everyday lives, and how their needs might be different from their neighbors,\u201d says Pilz. \u201cWhat we did was translate this thinking, combined with Traumhaus\u2019s components, into a catalog of designs that can serve a whole community in a whole spectrum of different ways.\u201d\nEach resident can also choose a custom garden to go with their house. \u201cThe scheme itself is an extension of the surrounding park,\u201d says Pilz. \u201cThrough the network of paths and gardens, the atmosphere of the park weaves its way through the neighborhood. Individualized gardens, each of them different and customized, will throw a vibrant mix of colors throughout the village.\u201d\nThe neighborhood will be next to a tram stop, so residents won\u2019t necessarily need to own a car at all, though the designers decided to give the option of underground parking. The design also allows emergency vehicles to drive into the neighborhood.\nThe designers think that the development, which will be built in a former U.S. Army barracks on the outskirts of Mannheim, can help change how people see the suburbs, and serve as a model for other communities. \u201cSuburbs have become stale, isolated neighborhoods copy-and-pasted throughout the country,\u201d he says. \u201cThe hope of our partnership with Traumhaus is that we might offer an alternative to the monotony of suburban living today, showing that there is an alternative to low-quality, expensive, and identical housing.\u201d\nAll Images: courtesy MVRDV",

        "raw_content": "Ferndale Alumni\nEarlier this year, we started a new feature in our eBlast recognizing some of our fantastic Ferndale Alumni. On this page you will find the ones we have featured so far. We want to use this page to celebrate our amazing educational legacy throughout the years. Do you know a Ferndale alumni who is representing the Ferndale Schools community proudly? Send an e-mail to Bill.Good@ferndaleschools.com to help us feature positive examples of Ferndale Schools legacy.\nDr. BEN DANTZER\nDr. Ben Dantzer has been all around the world researching animals and ecology, but his journey began right here at Washington Elementary, now the Kulick Center. \u201cI was lucky to experience many excellent and passionate teachers throughout Ferndale Schools that definitely shaped my career development.\u201d A 1999 Ferndale High School alumnus, Ben graduated from Michigan State University in 2012 with a dual-degree Ph.D. in Zoology as well as Ecology, Evolutionary Biology, and Behavior. He then went on to serve as Director of Studies in Natural Sciences at Churchill College in Cambridge, England while completing his Postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Cambridge.\nBen is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan where he conducts research and teaches classes. His research addresses understanding the causes and consequences of variation in the characteristics of wild animals with a specific focus on understanding how early life experiences shape individuals and how wild animals can cope with changing environments.\n\u201cI always enjoyed my biology classes with Mr. Bancroft and Mr. Bassier at Ferndale High School. They were great teachers that were very dedicated and seemed to know something about everything. It definitely fostered a strong sense of curiosity I had about the natural sciences, especially biology.\u201d\nThis curiousity has taken Ben all over the world as an evolutionary biologist, studying animals in the Yukon, Canada, and South Africa, and when he looks back at his experiences with Ferndale Public Schools he sees them\nas being incredibly important in shaping who he is and what he cares about. Ben recognizes that the diversity that Ferndale Schools fosters has greatly impacted his career, and he thinks it would impact anyone positively in any chosen field. \u201cThe diversity at Ferndale High School was remarkable, and my time there was formative in the sense that it instilled in me a deep appreciation of diversity and its importance in all careers and learning environments. Academia and scientific research or STEM fields are all places that are in dire need of more diversity (in all its definitions), and my time at FHS and growing up in Ferndale provided me an opportunity to learn the importance of that diversity.\u201d\nWhen Amanda Osorio was attending Ferndale Schools, she had no idea what an impact her time spent in the district would have on her later life. As a self-described academic, Amanda excelled in all of her classes and took advantage of every opportunity Ferndale offered to further her academic career. When she graduated in 2000, she left high school with 40 college credits from AP courses, having earned a Gates Millennium Scholarship and acceptance to Smith College. All of these things are outstanding accomplishments, but it was her involvement outside of the classroom that truly shaped the person she has become today.\nDuring her time at Ferndale High School, Amanda truly found her voice in choir under the guidance of longtime chorale teacher Ms. Brown. \u201cMrs. Brown, the choir teacher, heard the potential in my voice and arranged for me to have private voice lessons. It was good for the choir to have stronger singers, but it was such a gift to me as it helped fulfill a desire I held but was afraid to articulate. Guess she was right, as I ended up singing at the Metropolitan Opera House!\u201d Longtime Ferndale patron of the arts Lori Christensen coached talented FHS vocalists for years, but Amanda was perhaps her greatest success story. Amanda went on to not only be a singer for the Metropolitan Opera, but she also won a Grammy during her residency at the MET for her work in the live broadcast of The Tempest.\nAmanda\u2019s academic excellence led her parents to enroll her at Cranbrook-Kingswood after middle school. While this was an incredible experience, Amanda never felt at home at Cranbrook and constantly felt like something was missing. \u201cI was miserable there. I came back to Ferndale and with the care that came with being in my home community, the freedom to explore who I was and wanted to be, and of course an amazing vocal music and theatre program, I blossomed.\u201d\nNow living halfway around the world in South Africa, Amanda is the mother of two and owner of her own arts company, Africa Arts. She says Ferndale will always be home, and Ferndale Schools will hold a special place in her heart: \u201cit is a rare district that spans the socio-economic diversity of Ferndale and yet still manages to cater to the needs of a great majority of its students.\u201d Ferndale gave Amanda the opportunity to explore not only her academic potential but her artistic calling as well. As one of the longstanding staples in the district, every year Ferndale High School puts on a large scale musical production. During her time at FHS Amanda even had the opportunity to be the student director for the musical Carousel.\nLooking back now Amanda attributes much of her positive experiences and success on Ferndale as a community as well as Ferndale Schools and the incredible teachers the district has employed over the years. \u201cBeing able to direct a musical, take university classes, meet students from other districts at CASA, experience diverse friendships, find teachers who were advocates, and not be judged for the process of growing up\u2014these are the incredible gifts that Ferndale gave to me. That kind of support is priceless; it allowed me to take risks and it helped me become the successful person I am today.\u201d\nANDREA KNITTEL\nClass of 2001 - Ferndale High School\nStanding in front of the 2001 graduating class, valedictorian Andrea Knittel was looking forward to heading off to University of Michigan in the fall to study Spanish and Cellular and Molecular Biology. Looking back, Andrea a Ferndale Schools student since kindergarten had worked tirelessly to get to this moment. She was graduating with 51 college credits from AP courses and classes from Oakland Community College she had taken. She was an accomplished musician playing cello in the orchestra under the direction of Mr. Roger Smith and a talented thespian with the guidance of Ms. Linda Murley. \u201cBoth Mr. Smith and Ms. Murley let me express myself creatively and also fostered leadership and teaching skills that I continue to use today.\u201d\nHere we are 16 years later and Andrea has come a long way from the teenager who broke both her wrists during rehearsal for the spring musical. Of course she still managed to teach the choreography but with two heavy casts that was no easy task. Today, Andrea is Dr. Andrea Knittel holding a dual MD/PhD from the University of Michigan Medical School and University of Michigan School of Public Health in Medicine and Health Behavior and Health Education. Dr. Knittel is finishing up her residency at the University of California in Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences. In her spare time, (In Andrea\u2019s words \u201cresidents can only work 80 hours a week!\u201d) when she is not delivering babies or meeting with patients, Andrea is continuing the research work she started as a doctoral student, studying the effects of mass incarceration and the risks of contracting STDs and HIV in the community.\n\u201cAt Ferndale, I was encouraged to pursue things I felt strongly about. I was a peer HIV educator, which was my first involvement in anything that was really health care-related, and glimpsed even then that my life would be dedicated to addressing health disparities and inequities.\u201d Andrea was also given the opportunity to learn Spanish beginning in kindergarten and continued through dual enrollment at Oakland Community College. This opportunity led Andrea to become a certified Spanish/English bilingual provider by the San Francisco Department of Public Health.\nNext up for Dr. Knittel, moving to University of North Carolina this June to pursue a fellowship that will let her continue her clinical work and also re-immerse herself in the research she loves.",

Pic: Google.\nA woman who went into labour in a Kinross village cut off by snow has safely delivered a baby boy after being helped by farmers and off-duty midwives.\nA call for help was made on social media after Ashleigh Lisa, who was trapped in her house at Balgedie near Kinross, went into labour on Thursday night.\nSeveral off-duty midwives were taken to the house by tractor after farmers leapt to the woman\u2019s aid.\nThey arrived just in time, with Ms Lisa giving birth. A team of paramedics then helped take the baby to hospital.\nEmma Niven, whose husband Rob was one of the first to rush to help, told the BBC: \u201cAn emergency message went out on Facebook looking for midwives for our neighbour, who was in the late stages of labour and was stuck.\n\u201cWe just couldn\u2019t get her out and nobody could get to her, so we got the tractors out and negotiated a couple of midwives and brought them to her just in time at a critical stage where the baby\u2019s head was actually stuck.\n\u201cSo all has turned out well.\u201d\nBronda Henderson, the baby\u2019s grandmother, said: \u201cI can\u2019t believe it\u2019s happened, but mother and baby are doing fine. We have two midwives here and our neighbour who is a doctor and everyone in the community has been fantastic. All the farmers and neighbours in the area have cleared roads and fields to get here.\n\u201cIts been absolutely amazing and I can\u2019t thank the community enough. I\u2019m just relieved my daughter and my new grandson are OK and grateful to everyone around who tried so hard to get help here.\u201d",

Neither country is in NATO and both have historically pursued a policy of non-alignment with the US or Russia because of a desire to maintain economic ties with their geographical neighbours of Russia and Western Europe.\nBoth states only spend about 1% of their GDP on their militaries. But, due to concerns over Russian aggression in Crimea and Sino-Russian war games in the Baltic Sea, both countries have shown a desire to increase spending for national security reasons.\nIt is unlikely either country would consider joining NATO in the immediate future. Sweden has repeatedly stated it does not intend to join, while Finland\u2019s 2017 official defence policy stated that Finland does not recognize Russia as a direct threat. However, do expect with the signing of the new agreement, the possibility of more direct involvement with the US military: perhaps in the form of future basing grants and more joint exercises in the Baltic Sea.",

        "title": "'Special Report' Panel on Fed Taking Action, U.S.-European Relations | Fox News",
        "raw_content": "'Special Report' Panel on Fed Taking Action, U.S.-European Relations\nThis is a rush transcript of \"Special Report With Brit Hume\" from August 15, 2007. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.\nSAM STOVALL S&P SENIOR EQUITIES ANALYST: The reason why they did do something quickly was to show the market that yes, they are not asleep at the wheel, they are paying attention, and they are willing to do whatever is needed to make sure an orderly business flow is maintained.\nBut, at the same time, they are indicating that because something has needed to be done, that there are increased concerns about the health of the economy.\nBRET BAIER, GUEST HOST: Well, that&apos;s one analyst&apos;s take on the Federal Reserve cutting the discount rate on loans to banks by a half a percentage point. It did have a move on the market today. The Dow Jones Industrial shot up right after the move about 300 points. At the closing bell today ended up about 230 up.\nSo what did this all mean? Was it enough? And what is next? Now some analytical observations from Fred Barnes, Executive Editor of The Weekly Standard, Nina Easton, Washington Bureau Chief of Fortune Magazine, and syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer, FOX News contributors all.\nFred, was this enough?\nFRED BARNES, EXECUTIVE EDITOR, WEEKLY STANDARD: It was enough for what it was aimed at dealing with, and that was financial markets. It did stop the bleeding. As you note, DOW went up 230 points, back over 13,000, which is good. Still 1,000 points below what it was a few weeks ago.\nBut then there is the other part, and that is the real economy itself. One of the tests of Ben Bernanke, the Fed Chairman, is not just whether he can get the financial markets in better shape and a little more orderly, but whether he can protect the real economy.\nHere is where he has to head for something else. Not just a discount rate cut, but a cut in the federal funds rates, which will reduce interest rates in the country and stop the economy from going into recession.\nAnd he has had on the table this report from the Philadelphia Fed that says the economy is not growing at all. The Fed noted with this action that the downside risk to growth had increased appreciably. That argues for an interest rate cut.\nBAIER: Let&apos;s take a look at that Federal Reserve statement today.\n\"Financial market conditions have deteriorated, tighter credit conditions and increased security have the potential to restrain economic growth going forward.\"\nAnd, as you mentioned, the judgment now downside risks to the growth have increased appreciably.\nWe heard from the Fed, Nina, again and again and again, about inflation, and now downsize growth. That is a different message.\nNINA EASTON, WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF, FORTUNE MAGAZINE: A big policy switch here. The Fed has resisted interest rate cuts this summer, largely because of inflation. Keeping inflation under control despite high energy costs and high housing costs has been something that the administration certainly can trumpet as part of the good news about the economy.\nWhat we saw today was the big &apos;R&apos; word in the air, possibly \"recession.\" Could that happen? No one is talking about that. But the fed did raise concerns about a slower growth rate, and took this action, which is fairly surgical. It wasn&apos;t a sweeping as a rates cut.\nAnd down the road, we will see, as Fred said, a federal funds rate cut, which will have a more direct effect on consumer lending.\nBAIER: And, Charles, that meeting is September 18, and a lot of people are predicting that the federal funds rate will be cut. But is this all because we just don&apos;t know how deep the subprime problem, the mortgages really goes?\nCHARLES KRAUTHAMMER, SYNDICATED COLUMNIST: It was a way to cauterize. And since nobody know how deep it is--essentially, the best description of what was done was by economist Herman Stelts on the Weekly Standard, which said it was a surgical strike rather than a carpet bombing.\nThe carpet bombing would be a reduction in the federal funds rate, which would loosen loans up for everybody, which is unnecessary now. It looks as if--and which could defeat inflation, because over 2 percent, you have a strong economy, strong industrial sector, low unemployment. They are worried about that.\nWhat Bernanke did in the surgical strike is to open the discount window, which is where you can go and get a loan from the government, but you pay a penalty. It&apos;s a half a percent higher than the normal Fed funds rate. So the only ones who go are the ones who are in trouble.\nAnd the Fed had said it will accept as collateral this lousy paper, these mortgage backed loans which other people are holding, which nobody else will accept as collateral.\nSo it is away to let the Countryside, the Federal, and the other in trouble lenders get the cash out of the Fed, and be able to actually operate, and have the time to put their houses in order.\nIt looks as if it&apos;s a smart move--targeted. And if it has an effect, there will not be a need for the reduction in the federal funds rate.\nBAIER: The free-marketers, really, are not out there anymore. Most people believe this is the right move? Getting involved?\nBARNES: It has nothing to do with the free market. We do have a Federal Reserve. This is what it does.\nBAIER: Well, sure. But there are a lot of people who said it wasn&apos;t a good thing from the beginning.\nBARNES: I know, but that was 100 years ago.\nLook, the question is what the federal government does, what might the president propose? Is he going to propose a big bailout for lenders who may lose their houses? I don&apos;t think we are at this point now, but it is something you have to worry about.\nThere is a breathing space here for banks to deal with some of their bad loans. We will see what happens with them.\nBut look, the Federal Reserve&apos;s job is to regulate the money supply and make sure there is enough money there for the economy to be growing and financial markets to work. This is what it does. This is not big government or little government, it is just plain government.\nBAIER: The next step?\nEASTON: The next step, again, I think is the question of whether they will cut the federal funds rate, which is a more direct impact. But they have to weigh that against concerns against inflation.\nAnd I think they are going to wait and see how this settles down in the next couple of weeks. But even in the next couple of weeks is not going to determine how far and how deep this subprime mortgage problem is.\nThis is something that is going to play out over the next couple months, several months. And as Secretary Paulson said this week, you are going to see investor losses, you&apos;re going to see companies going out of business. He thinks the economy can absorb it.\nAnd, more importantly, the global economy is stronger than it has been in previous turbulent periods. So that&apos;s what they are hoping for. But, again, stay tuned. This is not over by any means.\nBAIER: A wild ride.\nWe have to take a break here. But when we come back, is there a renaissance in U.S.-French relations? Our panel will talk about the cozy trans-Atlantic connection when we return.\nGEORGE W. BUSH, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: I respect the people. I respect the history of France. We have had disagreements on Iraq, in particular. But I have never allowed disagreements to not find other ways to work together.\nNICOLAS SARKOZY, PRESIDENT OF FRANCE: Do we agree on everything? No. There are disagreements, but we are still friends nevertheless. That is the truth.\nBAIER: That&apos;s the truth. The recent visit last week by French President Nicolas Sarkozy to Maine, visiting with President Bush. It seems like better U.S.-French relations. What does all this mean?\nWe&apos;re back with our panel. Charles, it seems pretty cozy, doesn&apos;t it?\nKRAUTHAMMER: Well, we&apos;ve had the mantra from the Democrats that the administration has destroyed our alliances, alienated Europe.\nThis is nonsense. If you look at the changes over the last couple of years in Germany, and in France, in particular, essentially the heart of old Europe, the changes have been in our favor. You had Schroeder leaving, Merkel coming in, in Germany. Schroeder was not only anti-American, he ran anti-American in his campaigns. But he ended up as a stooge of Vladimir Putin. He is not working in the oil company in Russia.\nIn France you had Chirac, who had an allergy to anything Anglo-Saxon replaced by Sarkozy, who is a self declared friend of America. In fact, the Foreign Minister of France, which is a fact under-reported here, is a man who supported and supports the invasion of Iraq on humanitarian grounds. That is the Foreign Minister of France.\nIn Britain we have a close ally, and, of course, the east Europeans are tight with us. Essentially, we have a very strong western alliance. In part, of course, it has to do with the rise of Russia, and the saber rattling that the Russians have done, which has reminded Europeans that we are not at the end of history and they have enemies, and it is good to have America around as a friend.\nBAIER: Just today we talked about the Russian President Vladimir Putin sending out the strategic bombers again on long-range patrols. Nina, do you think this is what is uniting a different kind of relationship with France and others?\nEASTON: It is aiding a more united relationship. And, as Charles mentioned, it is also a change in the helm--both in France and in Germany you went from two leaders who actively opposed the Iraq invasion. We also, from our point of view, or from our perspective here in the U.S., you had Donald Rumsfeld deriding those nations as old Europe, and I don&apos;t think that helped relations either.\nWe have a Secretary of State, now, Condoleezza Rice who is very active, and very active both in Europe and elsewhere, but especially in Europe. And I think that has played a role in better relations.\nIt is going to be tested, though. It is something that is going to be tested over Iran and Iran&apos;s nuclear program. And it is going to be tested in Afghanistan. It going to continue to be tested over Iraq.\nBut I think both regimes in both of these countries have an interest in seeing a stable Iraq now that we are there.\nBAIER: Fred, how does this play politically?\nBARNES: Well, I think it plays well for Sarkozy, among other things, and also for George Bush. But, look it just makes sense. Chirac went to a great extent to alienate the United States and to work against the U.S. in world affairs, particularly in Iraq and the U.N. resolution. Its foreign minister traveled all over the world campaigning against the U.S. to get people in the Security Council to vote against a resolution authorizing war.\nYou talk about developing hostile relations. It was mainly done by the French, I think, and Sarkozy is straightening that out.\nI wonder what did President Bush mean when he said he respects the history of France. What does he respect? All those wars they lost? World War I and II? 1870? What is it? He likes the French Revolution, when they were chopping off all those heads?\nKRAUTHAMMER: I think, in his defense, he probably meant Lafayette, which is the one you can point to. Not a lot, but it is a big one.\nBAIER: Charles, Senator Kerry in his race for the presidency said that he wanted to really build international relations, and said George W. Bush just can&apos;t do it. So does this turn that on its head?\nKRAUTHAMMER: Yes, it does. It was nonsense to start with. We had a disagreement on a policy, which was exacerbated by the leaders of Germany and France. And now that the policy in Iraq is in place, and everybody has to accept the consequences.\nNATO is helping us in Europe, in Afghanistan, the first time ever out of area in a war. This is all under the supposedly unilateralist Bush administration. I think it is good diplomacy, and it has had a lot of success.\nWhat we are seeing with Putin sending out strategic bombers, that is Dr. Strangelove stuff. We haven&apos;t seen that since the 1950&apos;s. It is a useless weapon, but it a way of tweaking us over out installing the missile defenses in the Czech Republic and in Poland. It is a way of asserting Russia&apos;s power, but it reminds Europe that it needs America as a friend.\nBAIER: All right, that is the last word. We will be watching that one.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Chet Baker\nChet Baker was a primary exponent of the West Coast school of cool jazz in the early and mid-'50s. As a trumpeter, he had a generally restrained, intimate playing style and he attracted attention beyond jazz for his photogenic looks and singing. But his career was marred by drug addiction.\nBaker's father, Chesney Henry Baker,Sr., was a guitarist who was forced to turn to other work during the Depression; his mother, Vera (Moser) Baker, worked in a perfumery. The family moved from Oklahoma to Glendale, CA, in 1940. As a child, Baker sang at amateur competitions and in a church choir. Before his adolescence, his father brought home a trombone for him, then replaced it with a trumpet when the larger instrument proved too much for him. He had his first formal training in music in junior high and later at Glendale High School, but would play largely by ear for the rest of his life. In...\nBaker's father, Chesney Henry Baker,Sr., was a guitarist who was forced to turn to other work during the Depression; his mother, Vera (Moser) Baker, worked in a perfumery. The family moved from Oklahoma to Glendale, CA, in 1940. As a child, Baker sang at amateur competitions and in a church choir. Before his adolescence, his father brought home a trombone for him, then replaced it with a trumpet when the larger instrument proved too much for him. He had his first formal training in music in junior high and later at Glendale High School, but would play largely by ear for the rest of his life. In 1946, when he was only 16 years old, he dropped out of high school and his parents signed papers allowing him to enlist in the army; he was sent to Berlin, Germany, where he played in the 298th Army Band. After his discharge in 1948, he enrolled at El Camino College in Los Angeles, where he studied theory and harmony while playing in jazz clubs, but he quit college in the middle of his second year. He re-enlisted in the army in 1950 and became a member of the Sixth Army Band at the Presidio in San Francisco. But he also began sitting in at clubs in the city and he finally obtained a second discharge to become a professional jazz musician.\nBaker initially played in Vido Musso's band, then with Stan Getz. (The first recording featuring Baker is a performance of \"Out of Nowhere\" that comes from a tape of a jam session made on March 24, 1952, and was released on the Fresh Sound Records LP Live at the Trade Winds.) His break came quickly, when, in the spring of 1952, he was chosen at an audition to play a series of West Coast dates with Charlie Parker, making his debut with the famed saxophonist at the Tiffany Club in Los Angeles on May 29, 1952. That summer, he began playing in the Gerry Mulligan Quartet, a group featuring only baritone sax, trumpet, bass, and drums -- no piano -- that attracted attention during an engagement at the Haig nightclub and through recordings on the newly formed Pacific Jazz Records (later known as World Pacific Records), beginning with the 10\" LP Gerry Mulligan Quartet, which featured Baker's famous rendition of \"My Funny Valentine.\"\nThe Gerry Mulligan Quartet lasted for less than a year, folding when its leader went to jail on a drug charge in June 1953. Baker went solo, forming his own quartet, which initially featured Russ Freeman on piano, Red Mitchell on bass, and Bobby White on drums, and making his first recording as leader for Pacific Jazz on July 24, 1953. Baker was hailed by fans and critics and he won a number of polls in the next few years. In 1954, Pacific Jazz released Chet Baker Sings, an album that increased his popularity but alienated traditional jazz fans; he would continue to sing for the rest of his career. Acknowledging his chiseled good looks, nearby Hollywood came calling and he made his acting debut in the film Hell's Horizon, released in the fall of 1955. But he declined an offer of a studio contract and toured Europe from September 1955 to April 1956. When he returned to the U.S., he formed a quintet that featured saxophonist Phil Urso and pianist Bobby Timmons. Contrary to his reputation for relaxed, laid-back playing, Baker turned to more of a bop style with this group, which recorded the album Chet Baker & Crew for Pacific Jazz in July 1956.\nBaker toured the U.S. in February 1957 with the Birdland All-Stars and took a group to Europe later that year. He returned to Europe to stay in 1959, settling in Italy, where he acted in the film Urlatori Alla Sbarra. Hollywood, meanwhile, had not entirely given up on him, at least as a source of inspiration, and in 1960, a fictionalized film biography of his life, All the Fine Young Cannibals, appeared with Robert Wagner in the starring role of Chad Bixby.\nBaker had become addicted to heroin in the 1950s and had been incarcerated briefly on several occasions, but his drug habit only began to interfere with his career significantly in the 1960s. He was arrested in Italy in the summer of 1960 and spent almost a year and a half in jail. He celebrated his release by recording Chet Is Back! for RCA in February 1962. (It has since been reissued as The Italian Sessions and as Somewhere Over the Rainbow.) Later in the year, he was arrested in West Germany and expelled to Switzerland, then France, later moving to England in August 1962 to appear as himself in the film The Stolen Hours, which was released in 1963. He was deported from England to France because of a drug offense in March 1963. He lived in Paris and performed there and in Spain over the next year, but after being arrested again in West Germany, he was deported back to the U.S. He returned to America after five years in Europe on March 3, 1964, and played primarily in New York and Los Angeles during the mid-'60s, having switched temporarily from trumpet to fl\u00fcgelhorn. In the summer of 1966, he suffered a severe beating in San Francisco that was related to his drug addiction. The incident is usually misdated and frequently exaggerated in accounts of his life, often due to his own unreliable testimony. It is said, for example, that all his teeth were knocked out, which is not the case, though one tooth was broken and the general deterioration of his teeth led to his being fitted with dentures in the late '60s, forcing him to retrain his embouchure. The beating was not the cause of the decline in his career during this period, but it is emblematic of that decline. By the end of the '60s, he was recording and performing only infrequently and he stopped playing completely in the early '70s.\nRegaining some control over his life by taking methadone to control his heroin addiction (though he remained an addict), Baker eventually mounted a comeback that culminated in a prominent New York club engagement in November 1973 and a reunion concert with Gerry Mulligan at Carnegie Hall in November 1974 that was recorded and released by Epic Records. By the mid-'70s, Baker was able to return to Europe and he spent the rest of his life performing there primarily, with occasional trips to Japan and periods back in the U.S., though he had no permanent residence. He attracted the attention of rock musicians, with whom he occasionally performed, for example adding trumpet to Elvis Costello's recording of his anti-Falklands War song \"Shipbuilding\" in 1983. In 1987, photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber undertook a documentary film about Baker. The following year, Baker died in a fall from a hotel window in Amsterdam after taking heroin and cocaine. Weber's film, Let's Get Lost, premiered in September 1988 to critical acclaim and earned an Academy Award nomination. In 1997, Baker's unfinished autobiography was published under the title As Though I Had Wings: The Lost Memoir and the book was optioned by Miramax for a film adaptation.\nBaker's drug addiction caused him to lead a disorganized and peripatetic life, his constant need for cash requiring him to accept many ill-advised recording offers, while his undependability prevented him from making long-term commitments to record labels. As a result, his discography is extensive and wildly uneven.\nWilliam Ruhlmann -All Music Guide\nChet Baker & Crew (Vinyl)\nYou Can't Go Home Again (Vinyl)\nThe Most Important Jazz Album of 1964/65 (Vinyl)\nBaker's Holiday (Vinyl)\nJazz At Ann Arbor (Digipack Edition)\nChet Baker In Paris - The Complete Original Recordings (2-CD)\nThe Complete 1955 Holland Concerts\nAt The Forum Theatre - Complete Recordings (2-CD Digipack Edition)\nLove For Sale ( Dvd All Regions)\nMy Funny Valentine ( Dvd All Regions)\nThe Lost Holland Concert, September 18, 1955\nThe Complete Original Chet Baker Sings Sessions (2 LPs on 1 CD)\nK\u00f6ln Concert 1955\nConservatorio Cherubini Complete Concert 2 Cd Set\nConservatorio Cherubini Complete Concert (2 CD set - Digipack Limited Edition)\nComplete Studio Sessions with Dick Twardzik\nThe Original Quartet, Sextet & Septet with Russ Freeman - Complete 1953-1954 Studio Recordings (2...\nComplete performances With The Lighthouse All Stars\nChet Baker Ensemble and Sextet\nBurnin' at Backstreet\nAlbums featuring Chet Baker\nStan Getz & Chet Baker\nPlays with the Gerry Mulligan Quartet (Vinyl)\nPlayboys (Digipack Edition)\nSings A Song With Mulligan (Digipack Edition)\nComplete Playboys Sessions 1956\nJazz Shots - West Coast.

The settlement order against Jeffrey A. Gomez (aka Jeffrey Adams), Adams Consulting LLC, and Global Marketing Services L.L.C. also requires them to surrender funds and assets for consumer redress.\nThe FTC earlier secured a judgment against Adam Bowser, Christopher Bowser, Jody Marshall, AWS LLC, FBA Distributors LLC, FBA Stores LLC, Info Pros LLC, Info Solutions LLC, Online Auction Learning Center Inc. (Massachusetts), and Online Auction Learning Center Inc. (Nevada) related to the same fraudulent scheme.\nAccording to the FTC, the defendants, who have no affiliation with Amazon.com, falsely claimed their \u201cAmazing Wealth System\u201d would enable consumers to create a profitable online business selling products on Amazon. Buyers, however, did not earn the advertised income. Most of them lost significant amounts of money, and many experienced problems with their Amazon stores, including suspension and losing their ability to sell on Amazon.com.\nThe settlement order bans Gomez and his companies from selling business opportunities and business coaching services, and making false earnings claims. It imposes a judgment of more than $63.5 million, which will be partially suspended when Gomez surrenders approximately $2.55 million in funds and assets to the FTC. The order also prohibits Gomez and his companies from profiting from consumers\u2019 personal information collected as part of the scheme, and requires proper disposal of that information.\nConsumers affected by the defendants\u2019 scheme are encouraged to file a complaint to add their name to the FTC\u2019s case and visit the FTC\u2019s blog about this case.\nThe Commission vote approving the proposed stipulated final order was 5-0. The U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada has now entered the order.\nThis case was brought with the invaluable assistance of the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Utah Division of Consumer Protection, Utah County Attorney\u2019s Office (Bureau of Investigations), Utah County Sheriff\u2019s Office, Lindon City Police Department, U.S. Marshals Service, and Amazon.com, Inc.\nOperators of Get-Rich-With-Amazon Scheme Settle with the FTC\nRoberto Anguizola\nAWS, LLC, et al.

        "title": "Good teaching focuses on what the student does",
        "raw_content": "0:06Skip to 0 minutes and 6 secondsThe basic principles which underline my approach is that, well, with physics, students learn by actually working on problems and learning from what they can't do. So, in lectures, I take as active a learning approach as I can. So asking lots of questions and getting lots of feedback from the students so that I know what they're struggling with. So some of the principles that underlie my approach to teaching include collaboration. I think collaboration is really, really important both in a learning context but also in getting things done outside university. It's really important to me that students have a chance to get feedback from each other, from their peers, from co-collaborators. That they're able to work together on projects.\n1:00Skip to 1 minute and 0 secondsI think it's very important to foster a sense of a learning community. This sense that you can develop things together, so I try and foster that wherever possible. A lot of the work that I do with Sonic Arts involves things like obscure machines or hardware, software, very technical based experimentation. And it's important for me to get over that barrier of fear around technology, so give a sense of a safe space to really try things out and see what happens. I think it's good to have a lot of feedback from a lot of different angles from peers, from educators, even from people in the wider community where that's possible.\n1:50Skip to 1 minute and 50 secondsI think it's that desire to-- to communicate the course, to communicate the concepts and do it in an interesting way. Do it in a memorable way and to try and involve this-- involve and get the students to be active participants in their own learning. It's definitely more of a constitutive approach. So rather than the sage from the stage standing up front and boring students with 100 slide decks, now it's definitely a lot more like the guide by your side, where you work with the team to figure out what problem they're working on. You throw questions at them to help tease out the answer from them.\n2:30Skip to 2 minutes and 30 secondsYou don't tell them the answer, but you consult them to help them define a problem in a way that they can solve it.\n2:41Skip to 2 minutes and 41 secondsI think, for me, a good teacher is one that has infinite patience. A good teacher is one that recognises the body language of students when they don't get it. A good teacher is one that does not let the students get frustrated because then they stop learning. I believe that good teachers listen to their students a lot and respond to how the students answer questions. And from the looks on the students' faces, you can tell if they're engaged or not. So I think a good teacher listens to their student-- students and seeks feedback and then acts upon that feedback.\n3:23Skip to 3 minutes and 23 secondsSo I think, yeah, I mean, good lecturing is also breaking up the lecture because students can't concentrate for a full hour so mixing it up a bit. Maybe doing one lecturing to them and then having a break. In physics, we might show them a demo and get them to vote what they think is going to happen in that demo before performing the demo or giving them a question for them to work on in class and possibly getting them to vote on it. Definitely being really interested in what you're doing. Students can tell whether you're not as engaged yourself. And you have to be authentic. A lot of it is about that relationship and about your enthusiasm that captures other people.\n4:13Skip to 4 minutes and 13 secondsAs a scientist, we talk a lot about curiosity, and if people are curious, they are more engaged in what they're doing. So trying to capture that curiosity is important for me. A good teacher needs to be able to really foster a sense of community to have-- create and curate a culture. So as much as conveying information. There's lots of different ways to convey information, but that information needs to be conveyed in an environment where amazing things can happen. And I think one really key role of a teacher is to facilitate that kind of environment.\n4:54Skip to 4 minutes and 54 secondsObviously, it's important to know your material and to be able to point students in the right direction to explore things for themselves to make those little interventions that will really make a difference in their own research. From my own personal experience, I would say the qualities of a good teacher are definitely engagement and interactivity but this sort of ground level quality. So I think that the process of taking students through a reflective journey, a critical thinking journey, allowing them to take ownership of the task and scaffolding that process. And it's sort of like a guidance through that process. However, not all students can respond well to that.\n5:40Skip to 5 minutes and 40 secondsSo the teaching needs to be adaptable as well, and I think adaptability and knowing your student cohort and their thinking helps those qualities in a teacher to develop further. The qualities of a good teacher, I think, would go back to that principle of being-- of the role of a teacher which is to create good student learning. And so, I guess the first characteristic of a good teacher would be one who teaches effectively. One who monitors when their students are learning and what they're learning and how. One that uses effective strategies to teach and so to create that learning efficiently and effectively. One who monitors that student's learning and adjusts teaching strategies accordingly if they're not working, for example.\n6:36Skip to 6 minutes and 36 secondsAnd one that involves respect for the students and respect for the students' learning. And a teacher that imparts that through-- through liking the students, through respecting their intellectual engagement with the material and assuming that the students are here to learn, intellectually engaged, and curious and students who want to be here and want to engage with the material in which you're an expert.\nGood teaching focuses on what the student does\nRefer back to the good teaching qualities you prioritised in Step 2.1. In this step you will hear teachers at UNSW talk about the principles that form the basis of their practice and what they believe are the qualities of good teaching.\nTeaching staff were asked the following questions:\nWhat are the basic principles that underlie your teaching approach?\nWhat are some of the qualities of a good teacher?\nThink about this question while you watch the video.\nWhich idea or comment resonates with your views about good teaching?\nNow share your thoughts with your peers.\nInformation about the academic staff in this video and their professional contexts may be found in the Academics in context.pdf document.",

        "raw_content": "Shigeru Miyamoto talks online connectivity, Wii U's future\nBy Connor Sheridan 2013-03-13T01:51:58.71Z Wii U\n\"[An online console] opens up a tremendous amount of possibilities\"\nTo Shigeru Miyamoto, the most exciting thing about games right now is online play and connectivity. This may sound strange coming from the Nintendo figurehead, whose company was among the last to jump into the deep end of internet-enabled consoles with Wii U and 3DS.\nThat's because the water just wasn't right yet, Miyamoto told the New York Times.\n\"For a long time at Nintendo we didn\u2019t focus as much on online play because for many years doing so would have limited the size of the audience that could enjoy those features. But certainly now we see that so many people are connected to the Internet. It opens up a tremendous amount of possibilities.\"\nUnfortunately for Nintendo, that expanded audience hasn't been as hot to adopt Wii U as it was its predecessor. NPD estimates put January's U.S. sales for the system at 59,000 units maximum, lower than any of the previous-gen consoles had in any month.\nMiyamoto said he \"would want to see it performing with probably a little more momentum,\" but he's not concerned with its long-term performance yet. Even though dedicated game consoles may lose some territory to mobile devices, Miyamoto said the company is investing in the living room for the long haul.\n\"Nintendo\u2019s stance, over all, is that we don\u2019t know where entertainment will take us next. We look at it in terms of what kinds of experiences do families want in the living room in front of the TV? Because we don\u2019t think that families are going to go away, and we don\u2019t think that TVs are going to go away.\"",

Also in attendance were Energy Minister Bruce Fitch, Tourism and Parks Minister Joan MacAlpine-Stiles and Public Safety Minister Wayne Steeves.\n\"This bridge will be a lasting symbol of the spirit of co-operation between the communities of Greater Moncton and the Province of New Brunswick,\" Lord said. \"Its pedestrian walkway, officially named today as Veterans' Walk, will serve as a reminder of the sacrifices by veterans for the freedom of all Canadians.\"\n\"This beautiful new four-lane bridge will mean a vast improvement in traffic flow in Greater Moncton, and will bring increased prosperity to the entire region,\" Robichaud said.\nThe 425-metre-long bridge spans the Petitcodiac River, connecting the City of Moncton and the Town of Riverview. The bridge is unique in New Brunswick, in that it has a four-metre-wide sidewalk and two observation decks. Its concrete barrier walls and abutments have been textured and stained to give the impression of stone. It also has custom-designed black decorative railings and light standards with fluted poles and decorative scrollwork.\nRiverview and Moncton each contributed $750,000 towards the enhancements.\n\"The new Gunningsville Bridge is strategically important for the future growth of the Town of Riverview,\" Sweetland said. \"It will encourage both residential and commercial development in our community. We are proud of the unique esthetics of the new bridge. The design is a testament to the pride we have in our communities and our vision for the future.\"\n\"This is an exciting time for Greater Moncton,\" Mitton said. \"This wonderful new transportation corridor linking the communities of Moncton, Riverview and Dieppe will become a landmark in our region, and will have a major impact on our economy and environment.\"\nThe official opening lasted almost the entire day, with activities organized by the province and the municipalities. Running enthusiasts participated in an official run from Dieppe along the trail system and over the bridge into Riverview. Refreshments were served by the Riverview Lions Club, sponsored by the municipalities and the Department of Transportation. The public was welcome to walk freely on the bridge from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and listen to recorded music by New Brunswick artists.\nThe official opening ceremony was followed by a procession of antique fire trucks, one from each of the municipalities of Greater Moncton, and antique cars.\nMEDIA CONTACTS: Chisholm Pothier, press secretary, Office of the Premier, 506-453-2144; Tracey Burkhardt, director of communications, Transportation, 506-453-5634; Colette McLaughlin, communications officer, City of Moncton, 506-877-7745; Brenda Orchard, Town of Riverview, 506-387-2022.",

Both Studies were published in journal Annals of Internal Medicine.\nPeople who drank coffee had a lower risk of dying from diseases like stroke, heart disease, cancer, digestive diseases and kidney diseases, compared to people who didn\u2019t consume coffee at all.\nConsidering the study size and time period this is a very strong link between coffee consumption and lower risk of dying early. However, it is still unknown how exactly coffee influences the diseases itself. Therefore, future research is needed on the topic.

The songs deal with themes of myth, temptation, fear and redemption, conjured through a stark and surreal tone as biblical imagery is interwoven with folk legend of the American West. I had previously been working on the illustrations for Spanish poet and playwright Garci\u0301a Lorca\u2019s famous book of poems, the dauntingly beautiful Romancero Gitano (Gypsy Ballads). Lorca\u2019s work,\nas was Dylan\u2019s, was indebted to a age-old history of folklore, which he reinvented and made his own by approaching it through a contemporary, surreal and hypnotic lyricism. When looking to expand the imagery i had drawn up for Lorca, the John Wesley Harding album proved to be a way of highlighting the common ground both works share, and experimenting with more techniques andtextures to conjure a similar feeling.\nThe work of Joan Miro\u0301 and Antoni Ta\u0300pies, all influenced the feel of the work, which is presented as a companion booklet to the album, with included liner notes and lyrics.",

        "raw_content": "Love announces two assistants, other Ryder Cup plans\nRyder Cup captain Davis Love III confirmed what Fred Couples let slip at the Memorial Tournament, that he and Mike Hulbert would be the first two of Love's four assistants when they face the Europeans at Medinah CC in September. \"I talked to Fred all the way back in January, so he did pretty well to keep it under his hat all the way to Memorial,\" said Love jokingly. \"But talking to Fred about how we were going to do this, working with them on picking the other two, I think staging this is different than we've done in the past, but I am waiting on a couple guys to see how they play, where they fit in the mix of the points list.\"\nblog_love_moriarty_0627.jpg\nPhoto by Andrew Redington/Getty Images\nLove is leaning toward active PGA Tour players to round out his assistants, along with getting help from his brother, Mark. If veterans like Jim Furyk and Steve Stricker fall down the points list, they might well fill that role, just as Love did in Wales. \"My next two are going to be harder,\" said Love. \"I'm going to need to fill those gaps with guys that are out here playing -- like Corey (Pavin) did with Paul Goydos and myself. That's what Fred and Mike and I are doing right now is trying to figure out who's the best fit for the next two.\"\nOf more interest was what Love had to say about the actual playing of the matches. \"The three of us and a lot of other players, we've gotten together and decided that we think we'll go with the alternate shot format first in the mornings on Friday and Saturday,\" said Love. \"We feel like with our team, the way it's shaping up, the way it's played in the past, that's a good thing for us to do right off the bat in the morning. We feel like across the board, the players that I've talked to were either for it or heavily for it. So, I think we have a lot of confidence that we're better at that format than people think we are, and we're going to go with that in the mornings and it'll give us more flexibility for having to make pairings in the afternoon for best ball.\"\nRelated: The all-time best Ryder Cup captains\nLove also gave some indications on how he was leaning in course set-up. \"We really haven't made any hard-and-fast decisions yet,\" he said. \"It's hard to have a short-hitting team these days, so we're probably going to be a long-hitting team. I would think that the shorter rough, more creative shot making, firm, fast greens like we've been playing. That's what we're used to over here. We're used to making a lot of birdies, too. I think we want to at least tie or win holes with birdies because that gets the fans excited. But Medinah is Medinah. It's going to be a big, hard, long golf course no matter what we do.\"\n-- Jim Moriarty\nFollow @GWMoriarty\nThe LoopLaird adjusts schedule with sights on Ryder Cup - G\u2026\nThe LoopLove still figuring out Ryder Cup plan - Golf Digest\nThe LoopSleep?

        "title": "8 Valuable Lessons for Young Professionals from Kreyon Systems CEO",
        "raw_content": "Beginning your professional life is like riding on a road with multiple breakaways; you have lots of opportunities, and you can choose or build your own path. It\u2019s the time when you face failures or get into a tricky situation which doesn\u2019t have textbook solutions. Apart from your professional knowledge, you must know valuable lessons which can help you handle real-life circumstances.\nThus, in order to help young professionals, we framed eight questions and asked them to Mr Apoorve Dubey, Founder and CEO of Kreyon Systems Pvt. Ltd, a rapidly growing IT company that serves clients in more than ten countries. Mr Apoorve is an experienced entrepreneur, keynote speaker, author of the book \u2018The Flight of Ambition\u2019 published by Macmillan, co-author of \u2018successful organizations in action\u2019 and guest contributor on top publications like Entrepreneur, Lifehack, Addicted2Success etc. He has shared some amazing advice and valuable lessons, which can help many young people, who are about to begin their professional life.\nSo here are eight valuable life lessons for young professionals:\n1. What has life taught you that you have not learned in your academic learning?\nThe real world is a hard taskmaster. It teaches invaluable lessons until you retire from life. The following are some of my learnings:\na. Building Relationships\nNo one excels in isolation. You have to collaborate, network, and build strong relationships. Getting along with people, and especially those with divergent thinking opens up life-changing opportunities.\nb. Training the Mind\nIn the age where machines think for us, it is imperative that we take care of our minds. A rich inner life can help one to focus and stay clear of all distractions. There is only one thing that separates you from the crowd; it is your inner voice.\nc. Go with the flow\nTrust your instincts and gut feeling. The most beautiful things in our life are beyond explanations. The reason and logic cannot explain everything. Go with the flow and do things that you love and cherish.\n2. When did you face the first failure in professional life?\nI remember this incident to date as it was one of those unforgettable moments, I was with Symantec at the time. I came back from office at 11.30 pm on a Friday night. As soon as I reached home; I received a call from our team in Mountain View, California. They were in a panic mode.\nWe were working on an integration issue for Verizon; it was a multi-million-dollar project with very high stakes. And there was a critical system failure. I was the one looking after things in India for this project at the time, so I rushed to the office immediately. By the time I got to the office, it was midnight. We started working to resolve the issue. But this was a very typical situation where we spent the day and night working to resolve the issue.\nWe hardly slept for an hour and worked rest of the time. We slogged for the next seven days. There were hundreds of emails, and phone calls every day. Ultimately, we figured out that this integration was not feasible. But our team had been able to develop an alternate solution for the client. Despite the failure and downtime; the client was very happy to see our dedication and sincerity. The problem was fixed. And we could sleep again.\n3. Related to the above question, what did you learn from it?\nFailures are opportunities to persevere, learn, and improve yourself. The difference between success and failure is often one attempt. When you fail, you have to try one more time with better preparation, and you can change things around. You don\u2019t give up because you fail, but you fail because you give up.\nI have learnt that sincerity and dedication can turn things around. When you persist even in the direst situation, you can still do your best and come out a winner. The turnaround is always possible for those to keep trying.\nSuccess is doing what gives you fulfilment, achieving your highest capabilities, and being able to make a positive difference in the lives of others. It is achieved when you push yourself to improve every day. You cannot rest on what you\u2019ve done in the past. Success comes from giving your best and attaining things according to your true potential.\n5. What one thing a person should not take for granted?\nOne should take nothing for granted. But if you ask me one specific thing to others. It\u2019s time. Your time is the most valuable asset you have; utilize it where you will get the highest return.\nHow you spend your time decides what impact your life will create. The greatest men are able to use their time in creating something that outlasts them and makes the world a better place.\n6. Do you believe that positive thinking has helped you in life?\nDrawing from my personal experiences, I certainly do. You can amaze yourself with what you can achieve when you back yourself, give your best and persist until the end.\nPositive thinking allows you to focus on the right things. Struggles are part and parcel of life, how you deal with them develops your strength and character.\nBe positive and believe in yourself. The problems that you face are opportunities for you to make a mark. When things go wrong, how you react and take control decides your fate. No matter what the situation, back yourself and you will make it.\n7. How can a person stay motivated during tough times?\nWhen there is nothing higher to be achieved, all energy is simply scattered in the ordinary and mundane pursuits. But when you\u2019re driven by a higher purpose; you\u2019re able to endure the hard times.\nThe most successful people are inspired by a higher purpose. They relentlessly work towards their goals and stay committed to finishing things they start. They do everything in their power to see their dreams come true.\nWhen you think about quitting, go back to the reason why you started. It is not our abilities but persistence that leads us to our greatest achievements. Perseverance is the hallmark of achievers in any field.\n8. If you have to share just one of the valuable lessons or advice, what will you share?\nYou have all the power you need to build the future that you wish.\nPeople who work with full dedication, sincerity, and commitment derive immense pleasure from their work. When you put your heart and soul into things; it creates enormous energy that helps you achieve great things in life.\nAim for the highest you can attain and strive till you get there. Failure is a destination for those who give up, and success is a destination for those who keep trying.\nIf you like these positive lessons, then make sure to share with your friends and family.",

        "title": "\ufeff My Research Stay: Report by James Moo - Green Talents",
        "raw_content": "James Guo Sheng Moo is a postdoctoral researcher at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore where he develops his research in the area of materials chemistry for sustainability science. He received the Green Talents award in 2016 and conducted his three-month research stay under the supervision of Dr Lars Giebeler at the Institute for Complex Materials (IKM) in the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research (IFW).\nI am truly thankful for the chance to be among the Green Talent awardees of 2016. The Green Talents competition has allowed me to foster my scientific career by giving me a global stage to perform. Hence, I would like to share some experiences on my research stay and the scientific journey in the summer of 2017 in Dresden, Saxony, Germany.\nGermany has always been a leader of green technologies. This is especially obvious in the field of renewable energy storage research, where Germany plans to build one of the largest lithium battery manufacturing facilities for electric mobility. While I was there, I also felt a tangible and palpable air of excitement in the German scientific community as we move towards electrochemical battery storage of renewable energy. I could feel the general excitement of the research staff, towards building of knowledge and training of the people that can be employed in this endeavor in the future. This was also part of the decision to undertake research in electrochemical energy storage, which combines my knowledge of nanomaterials with renewable energy research.\nI was with the group of Dr Lars Giebeler, as part of the Electrochemical Storage Group at the Institute of Complex Materials in Leibniz Institute of Solid State and Materials Research. From day one, my mentors supported me with ample tutelage and provided unfettered access to all the equipment. As part of my research stay proposal, I raised the possibility of improving next-generation lithium-sulphur batteries based on graphene, where an increment of capacities could be made possible. During the course of the project, I was given complete independence and autonomy. From conceptualization, realization and analysis of the data, I had complete control over my project. This would not have been possible without the aid of the dedicated staff and research members of the group. The laboratory was well-equipped and has several in-house customized machines, built with the considerable know-how of the researchers. The project provided new insights and for the first time I was able to make a tangible device from scratch, the ubiquitous and common battery found in our electronic devices!\nThe research group at Leibniz Institute is international (from five continents) and they welcomed me with open arms. Outside the office, I had the chance to participate in different group activities, for example playing soccer golf (putting soccer balls into holes) in the nature of Saxony. Basking under the summer sun and dipping into seasonal beer was an unforgettable experience. I also give special thanks to Dresden Concept, the international student team from Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials and Technische Universitat Dresden of doing an extraordinary job of hosting foreign students and researchers.\nAlthough my three month journey has ended, the takeaways from this experience will last a lifetime. My research stay has broadened my horizons on how research at the cutting edge can be translated into the industry. A future research cooperation with Germany is within sights due to the relations that I have built up with the junior researchers and also with my group leader. Green Talents is a journey I will encourage any young researcher to undertake in Germany.\nRead more about James Guo Sheng Moo.",

        "title": "Interview: Steve Coyne | Guitar Nine",
        "raw_content": "Interview: Steve Coyne\nDan McAvinchey: Steve, when did you first get interested in guitar, and how did you learn and progress as a player?\nSteve Coyne: I first became interested in guitar in a couple different ways. For one thing, my father worked for a popular radio station in Boston so we had tons of records laying around the house. All our records still had the DJ's play logs stuck to the front of them. They would have comments and notes and jokes written all over them. I always had a lot of rock music to listen to. Also, I can remember being on vacation in Florida and listening to Van Halen's first album and being completely baffled by \"Eruption\" and Eddie's sound in general on that album. I was really into Led Zeppelin before Van Halen though. The solos in \"Stairway To Heaven\", \"Heartbreaker\" and \"Whole Lotta Love\" really got me excited about playing the guitar.\nAs far as learning and progressing goes, I had some lessons at a local music store in the Boston area. My teacher was a pretty cool dude and he would show me all the rock guitar solos. The intro to Billy Squier's \"Lonely Is The Night\" was a good easy solo that I learned to play as a beginner. \"Stairway To Heaven\" was my first real full length guitar solo. I still think its one of the best solos ever, even through all the shredding, multi finger tapping and speed licks that came after it. For feel and phrasing that's one of the best.\nAt that time, my parents had me paying for my own guitar lessons. That was when I learned that you can't walk into a 20 dollar lesson with 17 bucks. He kinda let me go when I came up short a few times. I had a good foundation at that point so I taught myself for a while. I used to slow down all the solos with my father's reel to reel tape recorder. It slowed stuff down to not quite half speed, so I learned to play a lot of guitar solos in the wrong keys. But its all good. I guess I learned to play a lot in A flat and E flat. Then when I'd get to band practice with the \"Bark At The Moon\" solo in the wrong key I'd have to transpose it back to the right key. It was a little unorthodox but it worked out for the best by making me play in unfamiliar keys.\nAfter a year or two I met up with a Berklee Grad who was doing the Jazz Rock thing. I started learning to read music and charts and learning to play over changes. That really led to me attending Berklee College of Music. Berklee is a great place for a guitar obsessed teenager. I really had a great time there and I learned as much as I could about rock, jazz and classical music. I took the guitar performance track and actually nearly majored in songwriting because I loved it so much. In the end I was too obsessed with the guitar though, so I used my songwriting credits as electives in a Professional Music major.\nDan McAvinchey: It sounds like Berklee gave you a great foundation for your subsequent work. Was your latest album (\"Feelings Of Euphoria\") self-released, or did you find a label that would work with you?\nSteve Coyne: I knew that I might have to go it alone with this release but I was determined to do it regardless of whether or not it got picked up. I always had ShredGuy Records and Guitar Nine in mind as I was writing and recording the album. I just knew that these were the places to be if you wanted to be noticed. As I was recording the album, I met a couple guys on Facebook who were already on the ShredGuy label. They helped me out in getting my stuff noticed over there. Soon after, my album was up on the site and I was in business.\nSteve Coyne: I would describe it as Hippie Shredder Groove Rock. That's a term me and a previous bandmate came up with and I always have it in my mind when I'm writing because it just seems to fit. I started off playing the guitar listening to a lot of the real jammy, blues/rock players from the hippie era. When I was a teenager, I had a bass player friend who didn't mind if I just soloed for three hours while he laid down a bass groove. We were into Hendrix, Cream, Jeff Beck, Zeppelin, Stevie Ray Vaughan. That's when I did my first experimenting with chord scales and modes that I learned from my Jazz guitar teacher.\nLater, Eddie Van Halen was really the first shredder for me. I learned to two-hand tap and tried to match the feel and sound of Eddie. All those influences are still in my music. I am a believer that music has to have a groove and a couple of good hooks and a good feel as well. Something that makes you move at least a little bit. I love the proggy time signature stuff too, but sometimes it can be a little too brainy and that can leave a general rock audience behind a little bit. One of my goals as an instrumental rock guitarist was to actually write songs that are memorable, listenable and likeable from a \"good tune\" viewpoint, like Satriani.\nDan McAvinchey: How did you write the songs for \"Feelings Of Euphoria\"?\nSteve Coyne: I wrote everything on a Yamaha Motif, a Boss DR-880 and a Tascam VS2400. There are songs that are a couple years old on there that got a rewrite with some parts added and modified. There were some new songs as well. I know some guys around the New Haven area who are members of the group House Of Lords as well as some other great local players. I basically contacted them and asked them if they'd like to do some tracks for me and they agreed. I didn't want a situation where I dumped a bunch of unfinished tracks on true professionals and expect to have a good result. I spent a lot of time making sure all of the writing was done, everything locked into the click and there weren't going to be any surprises that would hold up the project. There were a few bugs when I started but the guys were cool about it and helped me work it out a bit. Of course, I didn't want them to just duplicate my MIDI tracks with their instruments so, I gave them the artistic license to play it their way.\nI have to hand it to them all for bringing their A-games to the project. They made a lot of nice decisions on the interpretation end of things that I really appreciate. Later, producer Rob Barone brought some additional great players into the project. It was really great the way it came together in the end. I can't thank those guys enough for helping me see it through.\nDan McAvinchey: Do you get the chance to showcase your music in front of a live audience?\nSteve Coyne: I did a couple club dates as an opening act for the guitarist Joe Stump in Connecticut. I also did a clinic for Rocktron/GHS at Sam Ash's in New Haven. We gave away some swag and some ShredGuy CDs, which helped bring a bunch of people in the door. It was a good show. One of the Joe Stump openers and my clinic are on my YouTube channel.\nDan McAvinchey: Why do you think a small but enthusiastic minority of music fans prefer instrumental music over traditional, vocal-oriented music?\nSteve Coyne: Instrumental music is more open to the interpretation of the listener which is something that I think people like. Instrumental music is more chops oriented than music with vocals. Instrumental music is definitely more of a niche situation, though. Meaning, people who like it tend to like it a lot but it might not appeal to your general pop listening audience. I would say mostly guitarists and other musicians have an appreciation for it. There are more opportunities for the musicians to show off their chops and skills in an instrumental situation. Vocal music really has a lot of emphasis on the vocals and the lyrics and big choruses and so on. While the singing is happening the musicians really have to stay out of the way of the melody and not interfere with what the vocalist is trying to do. You might get a guitar solo or some display of instrumental musicianship in the song, but you really might not. People still love to be amazed or moved in some way by a virtuoso performance, whether it is guitar, keys, sax or some other instrument.\nDan McAvinchey: Time to dream; if you could do a once-off album project with any guitarist in the world, who would it be?\nSteve Coyne: I'd like to do something with Eddie Van Halen. His ideas seem to transcend what we know about music theory and chord progressions and scales. He just has his own way of seeing things. I would just like to be closer to being in his head for just a second or two to see what it's like to think like him.\nSteve Coyne: I am working on some songs for the next instrumental album. I've been experimenting with some more jazz/rock fusion ideas lately. There's also my songwriting background that I like to put to use, so I have a handful of very marketable tunes that I am working on getting recorded.\nThe Steve Coyne Conspiracy CD, \"Feelings Of Euphoria\" (distributed by ShredGuy Records) is the latest project from Berklee College of Music graduate Steve Coyne. Coyne advances his brand of \"Hippie Shredder Groove Rock\" on the album, a multi-genre excursion that covers rock, metal and fusion.\nDan McAvinchey caught up with Coyne on this interview, shedding light on his music, early years, and future in the guitar world.",

        "raw_content": "There are a number of reasons to remodel a house. Some homeowners want to make changes so they can remain in their current residences instead of moving. Others are tired of outdated spaces and want to update them. Still, others are looking to improve their overall quality of life. No matter why you\u2019re planning to renovate, you\u2019re probably experiencing a range of emotions from excitement to extreme nervousness.\nAfter all, just about everyone has heard stories of residential remodeling projects gone horribly awry. In these anecdotes, homeowners often end-up paying significantly more than they budgeted for their jobs. This guide is meant to minimize the chances of something like this happening to you. As you read on, you\u2019ll see several tips that will help you stick to the original purpose of your renovation without breaking the bank.\nKnow the real reasons you want to renovate.\nThis might seem like a no-brainer, but sometimes the reasons behind renovations are more complex than homeowners initially realize. Maybe, for instance, you think you need a bigger kitchen, but what you really want is more space to prepare food. This could be achieved by re-configuring the kitchen counters in the room you already have instead of adding square footage, which is usually significantly more costly. Giving serious thought to how you use the room or rooms you intend to remodel can help you save money because you\u2019ll only make those alterations that are necessary to improve your lifestyle.\nAdd contingency costs to your budget.\nThere are very few, if any, home renovation projects that ultimately go precisely according to plan. As a result of this, it\u2019s a good idea to be prepared for additional, unexpected costs before your job even begins. This way, you won\u2019t have to worry about where the extra funds are going to come from. A good rule of thumb is to make sure about 20% of your overall budget is for contingencies, such as wiring you didn\u2019t know would have to be replaced, the addition of ceiling headers when you take down a wall and other issues.\nMake a list of your priorities and refer to it often.\nAs you go through the renovation process, you will probably find yourself looking at a variety of photos online and in home decor magazines. This can give you ideas you had never even considered for your home. It\u2019s important, however, to remember what your priorities are for your remodeled space. This will prevent you from putting the money you don\u2019t really have toward features that won\u2019t really benefit you and your family in the long run; remember, many things you see in pictures are just trends.\nTo combat the urge to spend money on things that aren\u2019t actually necessary, make a list of your priorities at the very beginning of your project. Then, whenever you are thinking about adding another task to the overall job, refer to this list. If you have the extra money available and you actually think the feature would be worthwhile, go for it. Otherwise, remember your true goals and adhere to the items on the list.\nAt Hatch Homes, we enjoy handling both big and small renovation jobs. No matter what you\u2019re planning for your house, we would love to oversee the project. Give us a call to discuss what you have in mind and to schedule an appointment with someone from our skilled team. Clients throughout North Carolina and South Carolina have been using our services for years, and we can\u2019t wait to work with you too!",

        "raw_content": "https://www.healthcentral.com/article/new-warning-about-superbugs\nNew Warning About 'Superbugs'\nBy John Edward Swartzberg, M.D.\nThe World Health Organization (WHO) warned this week that a dozen antibiotic-resistant \u201csuperbugs\u201d pose a massive threat to human health, and urged the scientific community to act quickly to research and develop new antibiotics against several of the most concerning pathogens.\nThe rise in drug-resistant bacteria is attributed largely to overuse of antibiotics among humans and indiscriminate use of antibiotics among livestock.\nMany public health experts consider these strains to be just as dangerous as re-emerging viruses like Ebola and Zika. And we are quickly running out of effective treatment options. Already, the CDC estimates that at least 23,000 Americans are killed annually because of drug-resistant superbugs.\nThe biggest threats\nThe WHO report identified as \u201ccritical priority\u201d three pathogens resistant to multiple antibiotics: carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and all members of the Enterobacteriaceae family (which includes familiar names like E. coli) resistant to both carbapenems and third-generation cephalosporins. Carbapenems and cephalosporins are families of antibiotics.\nAnother six pathogens were rated as \u201chigh priority,\u201d including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, better known as MRSA, and an antibiotic-resistant strain of bacteria that cause gonorrhea.\nA third group, labeled \u201cmedium priority,\u201d included drug-resistant versions of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenza, and shigella. All three cause common infectionsin children and adults. These bacteria represent a threat due to increasing resistance but still have some effective antibiotic options available, according to the WHO.\nRead the organization\u2019s full statement here. Antibiotics, the drugs that are used to prevent and treat bacterial infections, are among the greatest public health advancements.\nBefore the routine use of antibiotics, an infected bug bite or simple skin scratch could be deadly. Bacterial pneumonia had a 30 percent fatality rate, and 90 percent of children infected with bacterial meningitis died. The WHO report highlights the urgent need to develop new antibiotics, lest infections that were once easily treated become deadly because they\u2019ve grown resistant to all existing options. (See \"A Post-Antibiotic Future?\").\nBut such research faces an uphill battle: New antibiotics are difficult to discover and there is little market incentive for pharmaceutical companies to do so, since the drugs are typically used short-term (as opposed to therapies for chronic diseases, which bring in much more revenue).\nThis article first appeared as \"New Warning About Antibiotic-Resistant Superbugs\" on Berkeley Wellness.",

        "title": "How Much Weight Can You Lose in a Month?",
        "raw_content": "Medically reviewed by Peggy Pletcher, MS, RD, LD, CDE on July 27, 2016 \u2014 Written by Rena Goldman\nIn our tech-savvy society we\u2019ve become even more used to getting results quickly. Demanding instant gratification is fine when you\u2019re talking about a smartphone, but it\u2019s not the best policy when it comes to weight loss.\nIf it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Fad diets that promise large amounts of weight loss leave you hungry at best, and at their worst they leave you with unhealthy habits and returned weight gain.\nSo what is the magic number to lose weight and keep it off? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it\u2019s 1 to 2 pounds per week. That means, on average, that aiming for 4 to 8 pounds of weight loss per month is a healthy goal.\nJust because it\u2019s possible to lose a lot more, at least in the early months of a diet, doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s healthy or that the weight will stay off in the long term.\nLosing the healthy way\nLosing weight can be incredibly simple and incredibly challenging at the same time.\nMath tells us that if we take in fewer calories than we burn, we will end in burning stored fat for fuel. One pound equals 3,500 calories. If you want to lose 1 pound per week, you\u2019ll need to take in about 500 to 1,000 fewer calories. But life isn\u2019t so simple. There are social events, holidays, and celebrations that all revolve around food.\nWhen trying to lose weight, a solid eating and exercise plan with a goal of getting healthier \u2014 not just fitting into a new outfit or looking good at an event \u2014 will help you lose the weight and keep it off. It\u2019s important to focus on both improving your eating habits and getting more physical activity.\nStrength training like lifting weights or doing bodyweight exercises along with some high-intensity interval training can give your metabolism the boost it needs to shed extra pounds. Steady-state aerobic exercise can also help burn off some calories.\n\u201cExercise increases your metabolic rate and builds more muscle mass, which allows you to continue to burn calories after the exercise session,\u201d says Dr. Amy Siegel of Austin Regional Clinic.\nThe good news is that you don\u2019t have to lose a lot of weight before you start seeing positive changes in your health. According to the CDC, if you\u2019re overweight, losing just 5 to 10 percent of your body weight can improve blood pressure, cholesterol, and reduce your risk of diabetes.\nWhy \u2018dieting\u2019 doesn\u2019t do it\nThere\u2019s a reason it\u2019s called \u201cyo-yo dieting.\u201d Depriving yourself isn\u2019t sustainable and will eventually lead to a return in familiar eating patterns.\nThere\u2019s also some science behind why we gain weight back after quick weight loss programs, according to Dr. Peter LePort, medical director of Memorial Care Center for Obesity at Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California.\n\u201cThe body reacts quickly when you lose weight that fast and you get hungry. If you lose 1 to 2 pounds a week, the body will adjust and begin to feel this is the weight I should be at and then you won\u2019t become extremely hungry because of a rapid weight loss,\u201d he says.\nThe exception to the 1 to 2 pound recommendation is when people have gone through weight loss surgery. Dr. LePort says many of his bariatric surgery patients are 100 pounds overweight and might lose 20 pounds per month shortly after surgery, then about 10 pounds per month, and then 5 pounds per month.\n\u201cThe surgery forces them to eat slowly and take in less food.\u201d\nIn order to lose weight and keep it off, you\u2019ll need a plan that you can stick to.\nIf you\u2019re just starting your weight loss journey or have had struggles in the past with finding a plan to stick to, it\u2019s a good idea to seek help. Your doctor can recommend a dietitian who can work with you to develop a healthy eating plan that\u2019s right for your needs and long-term goals.\nA dietitian can teach you healthy habits and ways to make sure you\u2019re managing portion sizes and avoiding too much sugar, salt, and saturated fat, all of which contribute to health issues like heart disease and diabetes.\n\u201cFrequently a patient needs help and they need to get into a program. I have a program I put together in my office for patients that includes classes and dietary instruction,\u201d says Dr. LePort.\nBoth Dr. LePort and Dr. Siegel recommend programs like Weight Watchers because they\u2019re helpful for learning portion control without having to deprive yourself of certain foods.\nIn order to be truly successful, focus on creating a healthier lifestyle for yourself. Eating healthfully and exercising shouldn\u2019t be a temporary means to an end \u2014 they should be regular habits.\n\u201cHow long it takes for someone to get to their goal depends on how many pounds they need to lose. The weight didn\u2019t come on overnight, and it isn\u2019t going to come off overnight either,\u201d says Dr. Siegel.",

        "title": "Hello Honolulu - Oldest US military survivor of Pearl Harbor dies at age 106",
        "raw_content": "Oldest US...\nLOS ANGELES (AP) - Ray Chavez, the oldest U.S. military survivor of the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor that plunged the United States into World War II, died Wednesday. He was 106.\nChavez, who had been battling pneumonia, died in his sleep in the San Diego suburb of Poway, his daughter, Kathleen Chavez, told The Associated Press.\nAs recently as last May he had traveled to Washington, D.C., where he was honored on Memorial Day by President Donald Trump. The White House Tweeted a statement Wednesday saying it was saddened to hear of his passing.\n\"We were honored to host him at the White House earlier this year,\" the statement said. \"Thank you for your service to our great nation, Ray!\"\nDaniel Martinez, chief historian for the National Park Service at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, confirmed Wednesday that Chavez was the oldest survivor of the attack that killed 2,335 U.S. military personnel and 68 civilians.\n\"I still feel a loss,\" Chavez said during 2016 ceremonies marking the attack's 75th anniversary. \"We were all together. We were friends and brothers. I feel close to all of them.\"\nHours before the attack, he was aboard the minesweeper USS Condor as it patrolled the harbor's east entrance when he and others saw the periscope of a Japanese submarine. They notified a destroyer that sunk it shortly before Japanese bombers arrived to strafe the harbor.\nBy then Chavez, who had worked through the early morning hours, had gone to his nearby home to sleep, ordering his wife not to wake him because he had been up all night.\n\"It seemed like I only slept about 10 minutes when she called me and said, 'We're being attacked,' \" he recalled in 2016. \"And I said, 'Who is going to attack us?' \"\n\"She said, 'The Japanese are here, and they're attacking everything.' \"\nHe ran back to the harbor to find it in flames.\nChavez would spend the next week there, working around the clock sifting through the destruction that had crippled the U.S. Navy's Pacific fleet.\nLater he was assigned to the transport ship USS La Salle, ferrying troops, tanks and other equipment to war-torn islands across the Pacific, from Guadalcanal to Okinawa.\nAlthough never wounded, he left the military in 1945 suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder that left him anxious and shaking.\nReturning to San Diego, where he had grown up, he took a job as a landscaper and groundskeeper, attributing the outdoors, a healthy diet and a strict workout program that he continued into his early 100s with restoring his health.\n\"He loved trees and he dearly loved plants and he knew everything about a plant or tree that you could possibly want to know,\" his daughter said Wednesday with a chuckle. \"And he finally retired when he was 95.\"\nStill, he would not talk about Pearl Harbor for decades. Then, on a last-minute whim, he decided to return to Hawaii in 1991 for ceremonies marking the attack's 50th anniversary.\n\"Then we did the 55th, the 60th, the 65th and the 70th, and from then on we went to every one,\" his daughter recalled, adding that until Chavez's health began to fail he had planned to attend this year's gathering next month.\nBorn March 12, 1912, in San Bernardino, California, to Mexican immigrant parents, Chavez moved to San Diego as a child, where his family ran a wholesale flower business. He joined the Navy in 1938.\nIn his later years, as he became well known as the attack's oldest military survivor, he'd be approached at memorial services and other events and asked for his autograph or to pose for pictures. He always maintained that those events were not about him, however, but about those who gave their lives.\n\"He'd just shrug his shoulders and shake his head and say, 'I was just doing my job,' \" said his daughter. \"He was just a very nice, quiet man. He never hollered about anything, and he was always pleasant to everybody.\"\nAssociated Press Writer Audrey McAvoy in Honolulu contributed to his story.",

        "raw_content": "Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder and affects people of all ages. Epilepsy is diagnosed in people who have as few as one otherwise unexplained seizure. This means having a seizure that wasn\u2019t caused by low blood sugar, drug or alcohol withdrawal, etc. A tendency toward seizures can run in your family, but the vast majority of people with epilepsy do not have a family history of the disease. The most common cause of epilepsy is brain injury or disorder, however in six out of ten cases, the causes are simply unknown. Sometimes children develop epilepsy, and then outgrow it before they are adults.\nApproximately three million people in the United States have epilepsy. A person is considered to have epilepsy if they meet any of the following criteria:\ntwo or more unprovoked seizures more that 24 hours apart\none unprovoked seizure and a probability that other seizures will occur in the next ten years.\nA diagnosis of an epilepsy syndrome, though it is considered to be resolved for children who have been diagnosed with an age-dependent syndrome and they are now past the applicable age.\nA person is considered to be epilepsy free if they have not had a seizure for ten years and have been off medication for the past five years.\nThe most common age groups to be diagnosed with epilepsy are: children before the age of ten and after the age of 55. Adults with brain injuries are more likely to develop epilepsy, though the seizures may begin long after the injury has healed. Brain infections can also cause epilepsy due to scarring from the infection. The seizures are most likely to present themselves long after the infection is healed. the seizures from brain injuries and infections are most likely caused by scarring left behind, which causes the brain to misfire.\nEPILEPSY AWARENESS BRACELET\nLavender is the color of epilepsy awareness. This is the same color used to signify a celebration of cancer survivors. Just as we hope for a cure for all cancer survivors, we also hope for a cure for epilepsy. Help raise awareness about epilepsy, it\u2019s causes and treatments, to help lessen the stigma that those who suffer from epilepsy must live with. Epilepsy can be scary to those who don\u2019t know what to expect, or how to help someone who is having a seizure. Education and awareness can do a lot to lessen this fear.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home > About Us > Historical Society > Highland Family Histories > Pullen/Pulley\nJames and Alice Moon Pullen (Pulley): James was born May 27, 1823, in Ledbury, Herefordshire, England to Francis and Martha Embry Pulley. He was baptized into the LDS Church in 1840 and migrated to America, settling in Nauvoo in 1844. He was endowed in the Nauvoo Temple February 6, 1846. He was personally acquainted with Joseph Smith.\nJames married Alice Moon on the same day the saints were forced to leave Nauvoo, moving to Alton, IL (just north of St. Louis) where they lived for several years. Little is known of Alice. They had four children when they migrated from Council Bluffs, IA in 1856. Living in Salt Lake City, he was a bodyguard to Brigham Young from 1856 - 1858. They then moved to Payson, then back to Salt Lake, then Farmington and in 1864 to American Fork. When public land became available in 1869 he purchased 50 acres of land south of American Fork. When Brigham Young visited the area James asked his advice on buying land and was told that higher ground would be of more value so he homesteaded 160 acres in Highland (east of #98 on the 1958 Highland map), the southeast quarter of sec 1, in the name of his son, James Franklin Pullen. On May 11, 1874, James took a plural wife, Lydia Esther Hall, who was 31 years younger than he. Alice died in 1877 and the 1880 census shows James living with Lydia and their 3 children. Lydia was born April 28, 1854, to David and Jane Duett Hall. They eventually had 13 children and by 1900 were living in American Fork. They later changed (or perhaps, corrected) their name to Pulley but no reason is given for the difference. James died December 14, 1906, in American Fork, Lydia died January 6, 1935, and they are buried in the American Fork City Cemetery.\nJames Franklin and Sarah Augusta Pulley: James came to Highland with his father James Pulley (q.v.) in the 1870's and returned in 1930 after his family was raised and his wife had died. He was born May 5, 1848, in Alton, Illinois to James and Alice Jane Moon Pulley. When he was just eighteen he served in the Black Hawk War from August 16 to October 24, 1866. He married Sarah March 15, 1875, and they had five children: Ophelia, Leonidas, Edith, Louella, and Armond.\nSarah was born January 25, 1848, in Savannah, Missouri to Joseph and Anna Amanda Chadney Pulley. She died August 28, 1927. In Highland in 1930, James was living with three of his children: Leonidas, Armond, and Ophelia, who had married Walter Gordon but he was not with her on the census. James died January 31, 1933, in American Fork and is buried in the American Fork City Cemetery.\nPrevious: Preece\nNext: Rasmussen",

        "title": "Allied Health Professionals - The Next Major Health Workforce - Highland Risk Services",
        "raw_content": "As a national insurance wholesaler for agents who serve allied health facilities, it is important that you understand the allied health field. One of the unique challenges faced by allied health facilities is significant and continuing growth.\nLead health professional of Public Health England, Linda Hindle, noted that allied health professionals might be the next major public health workforce in England, with more than 80,000 workers in private, government, education, and voluntary work. The growth has been significant in the United States as well, with more than 5 million workers providing 60% of the health care workforce in more than 80 different allied health professions. In addition, the number of US allied health professionals is expected to increase from 15-20% by the year 2020 according to the Bureau for Labor Statistics.\nMuch of this growth is directly related to the growth in elder care. Allied health professionals are at the forefront of providing care to seniors in our society.\nReasons for This Growth\nBaby Boomer Population\nThe United States currently has a baby boomer population of 80 million. As is to be expected, these individuals require more health care. In addition, these senior citizens are also seeking less expensive care.\nMany of the individuals who work in the allied health field are also reaching retirement age. This means there will be many openings to be filled in this industry, adding to the increase in personnel.\nAs technology advances, there is a need for allied health professionals trained to use this sophisticated equipment. Additionally, the increased use of electronic medical records by physicians requires technological knowledge provided by allied health professionals.\nConvenience and Cost Saving\nAllied health provides convenience and cost saving for patients utilizing their services. Wait times for treatment and procedures are frequently shorter. Allied health locations may be closer and easier to access than hospitals and larger treatment locations. Many seniors prefer allied health care providers and this is resulting in additional growth.\nIn the future, preventive medicine will be more important than it has ever been before, as prevention is more cost effective than treatment. This increases the need for allied health personnel who serve at the forefront of preventive medicine.\nIn addition, allied health care workers have roles at every stage of healthcare treatment, from diagnosis to treatment. Therefore, they can have a unique impact on creating positive change. By its very nature, healthcare is constantly evolving and improving. Advancements in healthcare means not only more specialized caretakers, but also expanding fields, both of which often falls to allied health professionals.\nAllied health professionals are at the forefront of these changes. How the medical community meets the challenge of these changes will depend largely upon the skills and commitment of the allied healthcare workforce.\nThe expansion of the allied health care industry is inevitable, even in light of current poor economic conditions. This growth presents new challenges and opportunities for the brokers and the agencies they serve. At Highland Risk Services, we are aware of these opportunities and challenges and are ready to help with the insurance needs for your allied health facility clients.

On the contrary, divorce actions are field between a married couple who may or may not have children. Although the purpose of purpose of parentage cases is to either establish or disestablish a parent-child relationship, most parentage cases are filed in order to obtain child support from one parent to the other, or to allocate parental decision making responsibilities and parenting time.\nThe Illinois Parentage Act of 2015 provides the Court with the authority to establish parentage, allocate decision making responsibilities, allocate parenting time, and award child support in parentage cases. Under the Act, a parent-child relationship between a woman and a child is established by (1) the woman having given birth to the child, (2) an adjudication by the court declaring the woman's parentage, (3) adoption of the child by the woman, or (4) a valid gestational surrogacy arrangement that complies with the Gestational Surrogacy Act in Illinois. A parent-child relationship between a man and a child is established (1) if the man signed a voluntary acknowledgment of paternity; (2) an adjudication of the man's parentage by the court; (3) adoption of the child by the man; or (4) a valid gestational surrogacy arrangement that complies with the Gestational Surrogacy Act in Illinois.\nA person is presumed to be the parent of a child if (1) the parents have entered into a marriage or civil union, and the child is born to the mother during the marriage; (2) the parents entered into a marriage or civil union and the child is born within 300 days after the marriage or civil union is terminated for any reason (such as death of a party, divorce, or legal separation); (3) before the birth of the child, the parents entered into a marriage or civil union in apparent compliance with the law, even if the attempted marriage or civil union is later declared invalid, and the child is born during the invalid marriage or within 300 days after the termination of the legal relationship; (4) after the child's birth, the parents enter into a marriage or civil union, even if the marriage or civil union could be declared invalid, and the parent is named as the child's parent on the birth certificate with the person's written consent.\nUnder the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015, only certain people have standing to file a parentage action: the child, the mother of the child, a pregnant woman, a man presumed or alleging himself to be the parent of a child, a woman presumed or alleging herself to be the parent of the child, the support-enforcement agency or other governmental agency authorized by law, any person or public agency that has physical possession of, has custody of, has been allocated parental responsibilities for, is providing financial support to, or has provided financial support to the child, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services if it is or has provided financial support to the child or is assisting in child support enforcement, and an authorized adoption agency.",

The Fraser Health proposal would push that sum over $300.\nHospital districts like the FVRHD are asked to fund a portion of infrastructure projects \u2013 often around 40 per cent \u2013 in local facilities. Money is raised through property taxes. The local share of funding is just a tiny part of Fraser Health\u2019s $3.3 billion annual budget.\nBraun said the board has been reviewing Fraser Health\u2019s request and is likely to kick in more money. But he suggested Fraser Health won\u2019t likely get the full amount requested, and said some of the projects could be classified as repair and maintenance, which is not to be funded through hospital boards. Braun also said the 40 per cent share is \u201cnot cast in stone.\u201d\nIn a PowerPoint presentation shown to hospital district members in the fall, Fraser Health CEO Michael Marchbank outlined more than $67 million in infrastructure spending between 2017 and 2022 with which the health authority wants help. Fraser Health hopes the hospital district would kick in around $26 million towards that cost.\nMost of that infrastructure spending would be on what the Fraser Health deems to be \u201cequipment over $100,000,\u201d defined as \u201cpriorities that cannot be further delayed.\u201d\nThe biggest projects for this year include a $1.4 million \u201cmultipurpose angio/interventional suite\u201d at Abbotsford Regional Hospital (ARH), and $1.2 million in \u201cpatient monitoring\u201d equipment at Chilliwack General Hospital (CGH).\nThe health authority is also undertaking a $6.7 million upgrade to Fraser Canyon Hospital\u2019s electrical system and a $2.7 million expansion of Mission\u2019s community health centre.\nBeyond this spring, Fraser Health\u2019s budget foresees a need for $25 million of equipment upgrades at ARH and $13 million of new equipment at CGH.\nFraser Health spokesperson Tasleem Juma said that with ARH coming up on 10 years of operation, more equipment at the hospital is in need of replacement. If the hospital board refuses to fund the full amount requested, that doesn\u2019t mean the equipment won\u2019t be purchased. Instead, Juma said the health authority will \u201clook for other ways to buy the equipment.\u201d\nWorkers shouldn\u2019t be used as \u2018pawns\u2019 in minimum wage fight: Wynne",

This is not a good strategy for anybody that just needs to avoid paying their consumer debt. It's a means of getting out of debt when you've got no other alternate options.\nSettlement agencies differ in quality, cost, and reputation. Be sure you find one who has high marks in all 3.\nCan Debt Settlement Help You?\nAlthough it may harm your credit rating momentarily to complete a debt settlement, it will prove better for the score in the long run if you repay all of your financial debt.

Building your bank account requires time. Even when it's not really needed, you will find that a good debt settlement agency calls you as often as every month. If you need a real friend in your struggle against debt, you can get this in an effective debt settlement service.\nChoosing A Debt Settlement Company In Cave City, Arkansas\nDon't decide upon any sort of debt relief solution without first investigating with the Attorney General and customer protection service in your area. This is the best way to find out if there are any sort of complaints against the organization you're considering.\nConduct the essential research. Learn what sort of support the business can provide, what it charges, and the length of time it will require to receive the results you're looking for. Find out what you will be charged and keep away from significant up-front service fees.\nIf you're able to locate an agency which will help you face to face, this is the way to begin. You are best off with an agency which offers online service, telephone service, and local services, rather than one with only a couple of these solutions. It will help to talk with a real professional in-person as opposed to going through a phone advisor.\nDo not imagine that something is free of charge, low-cost, or even reputable because it may include a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status. It may not be obvious, and the service could attempt to hide it, but many charge you excessive sums.\nAfter you narrow a list of choices, check for critiques.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/carthage/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/center-ridge/index.html",

Many companies will provide in person, online, and phone support, but you will want to preferably decide on a company that offers all 3. Communicating face-to-face is preferable to talking over the phone.\nSeveral companies have a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status, however, this doesn't suggest that it's authentic, free, or inexpensive.

        "title": "How Settling Debt Works In Diamondhead, Mississippi",
        "raw_content": "The Approach of Debt Settlement In Diamondhead, Mississippi And How To Deal With The Top Diamondhead, Mississippi Debt Settlement Company\nAre you consumed with financial debt? Do you need relief? Have credit cards turned into a hindrance to your ability to get through from one month to the next? This is the right time for you to consider Diamondhead, Mississippi debt settlement options.\nOnce people with bothersome financial debt become desperate, they typically go to their single best chance: a debt settlement organization.\nRight now, you'll find increasing numbers of people struggling with business debt, student loan debt, medical debt, and credit card debt. Debt settlement services are experiencing a rise in business. For many folks, the debt is far too big in comparison with their earnings to be accepted as clients.\nIn accordance with your own personal circumstances, you may find that the smart choice is to do business with a debt settlement service. In most cases, people who have debt between $10,000 to $100,000+ are optimal candidates for this solution. Debt may be due to living expenses, student education loans, or credit card bills.\nWhat Are The Advantages Of Debt Settlement?\nWhy do people choose a debt settlement program in the first place? The chance to stay away from bankruptcy is a significant rationale. Nobody likes to select a solution like consumer bankruptcy which will affect them throughout their lives. Many people will not want that everlasting detail on their record for the remainder of their lifetime. The bankruptcy entry can be on your credit reports for a decade, but a lot of credit, occupation, and bank loan applications inquire if you have ever filed consumer bankruptcy. You should not have to stress about being turned down because you filed for consumer bankruptcy in your history. Being untruthful about past bankruptcy proceedings might seem like the best practical strategy for many, but it's fraud. If you ever lie, you will go to jail, lose your career, and suffer various other penalties.\nA debt settlement program will mean that you can evade bankruptcy to begin with. A debt settlement program isn't anybody's first option when it comes to repaying financial debt, but as a last resort, it is better than bankruptcy proceedings. It is more than worthwhile to handle your problems with personal debt via settlement rather than face the negative impacts of a bankruptcy proceeding.\nOn your credit report, debt settlement won't look as terrible as personal bankruptcy, and it also just remains for 7 years instead of 10. The best thing is the fact that settling debt doesn't turn up on the work, bank loan, and credit applications. There will not even be any kind of record of it once it's come off of your credit report.\nDebt settlement isn't intended to be a means of trying to cheat creditors. This process is created for those who are not able to pay what they need to repay. That is why it is usually viewed as a last-ditch approach. When you are really having trouble paying off the debt , a debt settlement program could give you some help. It is also likely that you've already repaid more than whatever you actually spent in service fees and interest.\nCreditors do not get much (or anything at all) when you go bankrupt as they can if you decide on debt settlement. With Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy filing, they're likely to receive nothing at all. This reality is the reason that lots of creditors are likely to agree to settlements.\nPay your debts quicker. With an optimal debt settlement plan, you'll pay back your debts in 2-4 years, but you just might pay them back in one year or less. If you were to pay the debt in the normal way, it would take more time; and when you are thinking about a debt settlement program, this is not possible . This is also quicker than other debt relief alternatives available. You will need 3-5 years to carry out debt consolidation programs, credit counseling plans, and personal bankruptcy filing.\nYou'll be able to shield your name and your credit scores if you opt for a debt settlement program in lieu of consumer bankruptcy. A debt settlement program is not available as public record. Someone can see that you have been through personal bankruptcy processes. To discover this information, all anybody needs to do is sign up for a web based subscription service that makes the information easily available at their fingertips. Assuming they don't do that, they could always simply pay a visit to a government bankruptcy courtroom and obtain the details there. Consumer bankruptcy also damages your credit scores. Your credit will show a debt settlement program, but your rating will not be decreased.\nYou will not be required to surrender charge cards. In some circumstances the debt settlement deal will prevent you from utilizing your credit card, but in many instances you'll still be able to utilize them. This can enable you to still use your credit cards, which is helpful in an emergency situation. Owing lots of money to credit card providers can cause it to be very difficult making use of current credit cards or applying for new credit lines. The debt settlement objective could be lost if the credit cards are getting used.\nYou'll be able to cause it to be less difficult to manage what you owe. When you settle what you owe, you no longer need to manage several monthly payments, at different rates of interest, to different debt collectors. It will be minimized into a single payment amount.\nMonthly installments and interest rates are greatly minimized. Your rates of interest and monthly installments will be substantially easier to manage with a debt settlement plan. For this reason, you will have much more money available every month to look after your primary necessities.\nAre There Any Harmful Drawbacks to Settling Debt?\nNo debt relief strategy is without negative consequences, and you will encounter some with debt settlement. There is no entirely guarantee that creditors will accept settlement offers, plus your credit standing will be affected during that time period, and you might have to pay income taxes on the terminated debts. Debt settlement will be a lot more stressful than paying off financial debt on your own. However, if you can't pay back what you owe by yourself, it will still protect you from personal bankruptcy. Much like with any solution for debt cancellation, you should examine the benefits of debt settlement programs with the downsides. credit card relief\nYou have to be well prepared for the potential of losing property. Some people choose to use property, such as a family house or a vehicle, as collateral for the debt settlement programs financial loan. When you do that, you'll hazard the loss of the collateral if you fail to pay up promptly. There are many services that can't help you with no collateral. After all, you will not be exactly a trusted creditor, and they're going to want some sort of guarantee that they'll be paid back should you default or do not pay them.\nWatch out for buried fees ahead of time. Although reduced monthly obligations and rates of interest are very attractive, debt settlement may turn out to cost more. These things come at the cost of a longer repayment period. The extended timeline of repayment can mean that you consequently pay a lot more over time, especially if you have been in debt for a long time.\nYou could have poor unpleasant taxation consequences. You may need to report forgiven debt as taxable income, according to your circumstances. If your credit card companies and creditors report the settled consumer debt, it will be regarded as taxable income.\nThere will be a modest application fee in addition to roughly 10%-20% of the balance you bring, due within a year or so. So, for a person with ten thousand in debt, they may have to pay one thousand. Lowering your debt by half helps it be worth the price. You can see if you look at the math.\nThe process of debt settlement programs involves a company making contact with your creditors and attempting to put together deals with them to reduce debt on every account. A large number of collectors will agree to a settlement which is half of the balance due. The average rate is 60%, though the amount will fall anywhere between 40-60%. Companies will often agree to these large reductions in what they're owed since they might not receive anything without the debt settlement service. When people get into a really dire circumstance, they might go bankrupt at any moment. Banks and creditors don't know what to expect. Someone who goes through hardships and life obstacles may not have the ability to pay for their bills. If they do not consent to an offer, they might never receive money .\nA debt settlement program isn't a program for folks who are a bit stressed with consumer debt. It is a heavy move for individuals who are drained of alternate options. You are going to be affected through the impact on your credit standing and a lessened possibility of obtaining new financial loans and credit.\nIf you have other available options, look into them very carefully. If you are looking at consumer bankruptcy, consider settlement instead. Do not choose settlement if you have other available choices. It's not an effective way to get out of paying creditors what you owe. It's for individuals that are past options.\nExcellence, value, and status are the largest variables among debt settlement services. A company which excels in these three areas is a great one to deal with.\nThough it could hurt your credit rating in the short term to undertake a debt settlement, it will come out far better for the rating in the long run when you pay off all your financial debt. This may take under one year, as it does for about one-fourth of debt settlement clients. Most can achieve this inside of 2 or 3 years. It can take time to build up a lot of money. Even if it is not actually needed, you will see that a good settlement agency calls you as often as once a month. An excellent debt settlement agency is like a friend within your fight against consumer debt.\nDiamondhead, Mississippi Debt Settlement Providers\nNever choose any kind of debt relief service without investigating with the Attorney General and customer protection service where you live. This is actually the best way to determine if there's any kind of grievances with the company you're considering.\nConduct the essential homework. Learn what type of services the organization can provide, how much it charges, and how much time it's going to take you to obtain the results you want. Find out what you'll be charged and keep away from large up-front costs.\nWhen possible, locate a settlement agency that provides assistance in person. Many businesses will provide face to face, online, and phone services, but you will want to preferably decide on a service that offers all three. It may help to talk with a real person face to face instead of working with a phone advisor.\nA lot of options have got a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status, however, this does not mean that it is authentic, free, or low-cost. A suspicious program could attempt to cover up the fact that they charge rates which are very high.\nWhenever you focus a list of choices, search for reviews.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/decatur/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/durant/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Diet Shakes And Soups Should Be Prescribed To Obese Patients, Say Oxford Researchers\nPatients lost more weight with low-calorie meal replacement plans than traditional healthy eating.\nMeal replacement soups and shakes should be prescribed by doctors to help obese patients achieve significant, sustained weight loss, new research suggests.\nThe researchers, from the University of Oxford, suggest total diet replacement programmes could ease pressure on GPs treating obesity-related illness.\nIn the study of UK patients with a BMI over 30, those who ate just 810 calories per day on a meal replacement plan lost an average of almost 24lb (11kg) in one year.\nBut it should be noted that the study was partially funded by the Cambridge Weight Plan UK, who provided the low-calorie food products.\nAkayArda via Getty Images\nThe trial, published in the British Medical Journal, involved 278 obese adults in Oxfordshire, who were split into two groups. The first were enrolled on a healthy eating GP weight management programme, receiving advice and support from a practice nurse. The second were offered a low-energy total diet replacement plan for 24 weeks.\nParticipants on the programme, provided by Cambridge Weight Plan UK, reduced their intake to 810 calories a day using specially designed soups, shakes and bars, and also took supplements. They were given these products for eight weeks, before gradually re-introducing normal food, and also received diet counselling. After 12 weeks on the programme, they were encouraged to continue replacing one meal a day with a replacement product.\nThe study found participants on the diet replacement plan lost an average of 23.6lb (10.7kg) after 12 months, 16lb (7.2kg) more than those on a GP practice programme.\nThey also had a greater reduced risk of developing heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Almost half (45 per cent) of obese people on the low-energy diet achieved weight loss of more than 10 per cent, compared with just 15 per cent of patients receiving help from their GP.\nLead investigator Professor Susan Jebb, from the University of Oxford, said: \u201cIn the past we have worried that a short period of rapid weight loss may lead to rapid weight regain. But this study shows that nine months after the intensive weight loss phase, people have lost more than three times as much weight as people following a conventional weight loss programme.\u201d\nDr Nerys Astbury, a senior researcher in diet and obesity at the University of Oxford, said: \u201cThis model of care, where patients are referred to a provider in the community for support, offers the potential for rapid roll-out at scale across the NHS and could help reduce the pressure on GPs in treating obesity-related disease.\u201d\nThe study was funded by the Cambridge Weight Plan and the National Institute for Health Research.\nMORE: Health health Diet and fitness obesity Dietary supplement",

        "raw_content": "Taylor Mac Tackles The History Of American Pop In Brooklyn\nThe gender-skewing star promises a dazzling, unconventional night of song and dance.\nMusical and theatrical chameleon Taylor Mac has never been one for convention.\nStill, the New York-based performance artist, who identifies as gender queer and prefers to go by the pronoun \"judy,\" will draw from the mainstream in \"The 20th Century Abridged,\" which hits Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York on Aug. 1. The show is comprised of selections from Mac's dazzling, audience-participatory 24-hour performance piece, \"A 24-Decade History of Popular Music,\" and sees judy giving two pop songs from each decade of the 20th century a striking re-invention.\nVes Pitts\n\"I don't play favorites, because sometimes the decade or era of music I most despise ends up being the most fun to perform,\" Mac, who will sing, dance and play the ukulele in the show, told The Huffington Post. Previous performances of \"The 20th Century Abridged\" have seen Mac strut about a stage in a gown and an ornate headdress, backed by burlesque dancers and a 12-piece orchestra and crooning the likes of Nina Simone, Patti Smith and even Laura Branigan. Joining Mac for the first time at the Saturday performance is the Brooklyn United Marching Band, and judy has structured the show to leave plenty of room for spontaneity.\n\"Every show we do is full of surprises because we play off of what is happening in the room,\" judy said. \"Considering [the show is taking place] in the park, it\u2019s gonna be a fun night.\"\nAlthough Mac has amassed critical acclaim, judy's following among the LGBT community has been relatively niche. This fact is not lost on the performer and playwright, who feels gay audiences have tried too hard too assimilate with queer culture being perceived as more mainstream than ever.\nHence, Mac sees \"The 20th Century Abridged,\" which has been billed as both \"politically knowing\" and \"outrageously entertaining,\" as an opportunity to represent the queer community as \"the complicated creatures we are\" and \"remind the audience of things they\u2019ve forgotten, dismissed, or buried.\"\n\"The whole point for me is an exploration of heterogeneity,\" judy said. \"Plus I never try to teach the audience anything. I\u2019m just here to point out what\u2019s been around, is around, and looks to be coming.\"\nAs for his Brooklyn performance, judy hopes the audience leaves \"experiencing a fuller range of who they are: intellectually, emotionally, sensually,\" and, given that it's summer in New York, \"I want them to sweat all over each other.\"\nTaylor Mac will perform \"The 20th Century Abridged\" as part of\"Celebrate Brooklyn! at Prospect Park Bandshell\" in Brooklyn, New York on Aug. 1.

The hippie haven of Glastonbury might steal the prize for <a href=\"http://www.viator.com/England/d731-ttd\" target=\"_blank\">England</a>'s most popular festival, but with the biennial festival off the calendar for 2012 (put your names down for the 2013 festival now), the crowds will be descending upon the <a href=\"http://www.leedsfestival.co.uk/\" target=\"_blank\">Leeds</a> & <a href=\"http://www.readingfestival.co.uk/\" target=\"_blank\">Reading</a> Festivals instead. Held simultaneously at two venues in the North and South of the country over the final bank holiday weekend of the summer (24-26 August), with a rotating cast of bands, the two festivals have quickly reached legendary status among world rock fans. The audiences, renowned as one of the craziest festival crowds, make the festival, with the last evening routinely turning into a chaotic display of alcohol-fueled debauchery, as the festival campsites turn into one enormous party with campfires, fireworks and impromptu mud sliding. This year's line-up includes Paramore, Foo Fighters, At the Drive-in, The Cure and Angels & Airwaves, with dozens of acts still yet to be announced. <strong>Read more about <a href=\"http://thingstodo.viator.com/england/\" target=\"_blank\">things to do in England</a></strong> Photo credit: <a href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/samsaunders/1251684150/\" target=\"_hplink\">Sam Saunders</a> via Flickr",

The Act requires large companies with a turnover of over \u00a336m, which supply goods, or services, to publish information each financial year to reflect the steps taken to ensure there is no slavery or human trafficking in their business or supply chains. I am pleased to confirm that to the best of our knowledge there is no slavery or human trafficking in our business or with any of our wider supply chain partners. We all have a have responsibility to be alert to the risks of slavery and human trafficking, however large or small, in our business or in our supply chains\nHyde Housing Association is the parent organisation of a number of subsidiaries, together we are known as the Hyde Group. This statement applies to all Group members.\nWe own and manage 48,000 homes in London and the South East. We have 98,000 customers and we employ 1,300 members of staff.\nOur core purpose remains the same as it did when we were established in 1967, which was to help people excluded from the mainstream housing market. However we are also a house builder and we develop open market housing to subsidise the development of even more affordable homes. We are transparent in reinvesting our profits to fulfil this social purpose.\nOur activities are regulated by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA).\nWe only use specified, reputable employment agencies to source labour and always verify the practices of any new agency it is using before accepting workers from that agency. This is reflected in our Recruitment & Selection Policy.\nAs an employer we are committed to paying the London Living Wage to all our staff in London and Living Wage to all our staff outside of London and we regularly review our terms of employment to ensure that they comply with all relevant legislation.\nEmployees are provided with clear and transparent information about rates of pay, hours worked and legal deductions.\nWe expect all employees to adhere to the Group\u2019s Staff Code of Conduct.\nWe ensure that we have systems in place with an overarching policy statement as well as a whistle blowing policy to encourage the reporting of concerns and the protection of whistle blowers\nOur staff who are in contact with our residents and service users are trained to identify any safeguarding issues, which include signs of exploitation, and comply with the referral process to ensure that incidents of this nature are reported to managers who then work with other agencies such as Local Authority Social Services and the Police.\nOur safeguarding and anti-tenancy fraud policies and procedures enable us to take the appropriate action if slavery or human trafficking is identified by us within our homes or by our customers.\nOur supply chains include the sourcing of products and services related to the development and management of housing.\nOur procurement activities take place in England and our contractors and suppliers are UK based. We follow The European Union Procurement Directives which govern good practice in procurement.\nOur robust tendering process, managed by a dedicated procurement team who adhere to our Procurement Policy, ensures we engage with reputable contractors who adhere to all appropriate legislation, regulation and practices. Our contract management arrangements help us ensure they maintain the standards required.\nAll our policies are reviewed on a continuous basis to ensure that they reflect best practice and to mitigate against risks.\nTo ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business, all staff and directors have been briefed on the subject. Training will be provided to staff where relevant. Assurance on modern slavery will be built into our assurance plan.\nElaine Bailey, Chief Executive",

Are you looking for a smartphone that has every mobile feature imaginable? Lastly, do you have way more money than you know what to do with? If so the Pharos Traveler 137 has everything you're looking for and it's out now for $350 with a 2-year T-Mobile Contract. You can also pick up an unlocked one for a hefty $600.\nThe Pharos comes with a big 3.5\u201d touch screen, 512 MB of flash memory, 256 MB of RAM, a 3 megapixel camera, and AGPS. It boasts speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps HSPA on T-Mobile USA, which is why it's being billed by some as a \u201c3.5 G\u201d phone. The Pharos 137 runs on Windows Mobile 6.1, but it can be upgraded to Windows 6.5.\nFrom all I can see, the Pharos sounds like a top-notch smartphone (although I've heard its touch screen is a little uncomfortable to use), albeit an expensive one. I'm not sure exactly what market this smartphone is hoping to capture, but the 137 definitely has every feature I can imagine wanting in a mobile.",

        "raw_content": "Views on mono usually incorrect\nMononucleosis is a common virus that's often misunderstood\nBy Leah Crocker\nHeadache, tiredness, fever, sore throat; the list goes on and on. Mononucleosis is one of the most common illnesses on college campuses nationwide, and IU is no exception, according to an information pamphlet provided by the IU Health Center.\nDuring all seasons of the year hundreds of students go into the Health Center complaining of a variety of symptoms from decreased appetite to general exhaustion, said Health Center nurse practitioner Karlyn Doty. A blood test can tell those students if they have contracted the virus commonly known as \"mono.\"\nAccording to the pamphlet, mono attacks the lymphatic system and is typically characterized by fatigue, fever, sore throat and swollen glands.\nIt is often depicted as an illness that keeps patients bedridden for weeks while they recover, but Doty said this is a huge misrepresentation.\n\"Mono is given a bad rap,\" Doty said. \"Most people are going to have mono and never even know they have it.\"\nUntreated mono can be spread to others. Doty said studies show that 70 to 90 percent of carriers shed the virus up to six months after initial infection. Even after someone \"gets over\" mono, they can still spread the infection for several months.\nEven though it is traditionally known as the \"kissing disease,\" anytime that saliva is exchanged, mono can spread, according to the pamphlet. This includes sharing drinks, food and even lip balm. Typically, the symptoms of mono start out similar to those of a regular cold.\n\"Symptoms vary widely,\" Doty said. \"You might notice a sore throat, being tired, swollen lymph nodes, voice changes or really bad breath.\"\nEven though symptoms may be common, there is a specific blood test to know for sure. Doty said students should not be too worried about pain when it comes to the blood test.\n\"It's nothing like giving blood,\" she said. \"Sometimes we can even diagnose without giving the blood test.\"\nDoty said another issue that shouldn't keep students from visiting the health center is cost.\n\"The medicine is certainly not expensive,\" Doty said. \"Because it is a viral infection, you don't need antibiotics. We're really treating the symptoms.\"\nTreatment for mono usually includes extra rest, plenty of fluids and a well balanced diet, according to the pamphlet.\nJunior Kate Ramsay got mononucleosis the summer before coming to IU.\n\"I almost didn't get to come to IU because they thought it was going to be worse than it was,\" she said. \"It wasn't bad at all.\"\nRamsay experienced relatively typical symptoms and said she felt tired and her throat swelled up for about three days.\n\"For most of the time I had mono, I didn't even know it,\" she said. \"I slept a lot, but I thought it was just from going out.\"\nRamsay said that she did have the blood test done to confirm her mono.\n\"I thought I was going to be tired forever, but it really didn't last long,\" she said.\nDoty said those that have already had mono have no reason to worry. \"You're almost more likely to win the lottery than get mono twice,\" she said.",

        "raw_content": "World AIDS Day: HIV /AIDS & Social Protection\nStatement issued by: Dr Rory Truell, IFSW Secretary-General, on December 1, 2014\nThere is increasing evidence that social protection systems* reduce the spread of HIV /AIDS. In much of the world, HIV / AIDS is linked with poverty, lack of understanding and the absence of modern health facilities being a part of day-to-day life.\nSocial workers globally are directly involved with providing community education and support to the peoples who live and die with the virus. Our on-the-ground experience has highlighted that social protection systems, not only enable people to receive life-saving antiretroviral treatment, but they also enable people to remain in work or receive some benefit that provides essential income for their families. Social protection systems also play a significant role in breaking down the stigma of HIV /AIDS enabling more to access to help.\nThere is a tendency from international bodies to focus on HIV / AIDS treatment, rather than developing sustainable systems that become a pillar within communities, \u2013 providing support, safety and a future to all members of society.\nNot focusing on the added benefits of social protections systems is short sighted. Social workers all to often work with children who have become orphaned and whose extended family\u2019s resources have become exhausted by the extra burdens to care. Social workers know from firsthand experience that whole generations of people are being deprived of stable caring family environments and subsequently they spiral into further social problems and hardship.\nSocial protections systems have a positive effect on the economy. This is demonstrated by researchers at Oxford and Stanford Universities who showed that for every $1 invested in social protection systems, there is a $3 return to the economy. People live longer, with fewer health problems and in communities with reduced levels of stress and crime.\nA key principle of social work is \u2018capacity building\u2019 and turning \u2018tragedies into opportunities\u2019. IFSW has joined the call for the UN post-2015 development agenda to include the goal of all countries having Social Protections Systems that leave no one behind, including people living with HIV /AIDS.\n* Social protection systems should ensure that over the life cycle, all people have access to essential health care, to adequate income security, and social support services.",

Sisters of Mercy commuted from the St. Vincent Orphanage and later from St. Joseph Texas until the rectory was built in 1953 and former rectory and original chapel became the convent.\nThe growth in the area exceeded all expectations and the original school building was outgrown quickly. More rooms were added in the basement of the Church and rectory and additional classrooms were added in 1955, 1956, 1958, 1960, 1962 and 1964. Also in 1958, the school gym and lunch room were completed. Today IHM is a co-educational school educating students from the three-year-old program through eighth grade.\nThe goal of IHM is to provide for personal growth of students, teachers and parents in the context of Christian faith in a contemporary world. IHM strives to create a Christian educational community where human knowledge enlightened by faith is shared in a spirit of freedom and love.\nWith faith and hope in the future of our church, we strongly recognize and support the importance of Catholic education. We realize that the most effective means available for the continuance of our faith is through the educational process. Our children are guided to experience their individual worth as a person loved by God and as an integral member of the faith community. This is accomplished by providing a loving Christian environment where the gospel message of Jesus is shared and an appreciation of the richness of our Catholic heritage is fostered through all aspects of the academics. We agree that our children are our investment for the future and that they can make a significant difference in society.\nIHM follows the curriculum prescribed by the Archdiocese of Baltimore, which is based on the National Standards in each discipline infused with Catholic values. IHM is accredited by the AdvanceED Accreditation Commission and The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council.",

Dividend Stocks,News,Real Estate,SPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF https://www.incomeinvestors.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/iStock-859246796-150x150.jpg\nRWX Stock: The Best Foreign Real Estate Investment Paying 8.4%\niStock/champc\nA Simple Way to Earn an Income from International Properties\nInternational real estate can offer some serious income and growth opportunities. The thing is, owning properties abroad comes with its hassles. Currency translation, taxes, or simply a tenant\u2019s phone call about leaky faucets in the middle of the night can bring some serious headaches for landlords who reside in a different country.\nToday, however, I\u2019m going to show you a much simpler way to invest in foreign real estate than being a landlord yourself: through SPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF (NYSEARCA:RWX).\nSPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF, as the name implies, is an exchange-traded fund (ETF). It was created to track the performance of the Dow Jones Global ex-U.S. Select Real Estate Securities Index. The fund provides investors exposure to publicly traded securities in developed and emerging markets outside the U.S.\nReal estate is one of the best places for investors to earn an income stream, and RWX is no exception. At the current price, the fund offers a generous annual dividend yield of 8.4%. To give you some perspective, the average dividend yield of S&P 500 companies is below two percent at the moment. So investors putting their money in this ETF today would be earning a yield more than four times the benchmark\u2019s average.\nThe ETF can provide such generous dividends thanks to its high-yield portfolio. Right now, the fund holds 113 publicly traded securities representing real estate assets located in 18 countries. Its top five regions are Japan (26.29%), Australia (14.46%), the United Kingdom (11.76%), France (10.49%), and Hong Kong (8.3%). (Source: \u201cSPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF,\u201d State Street Global Advisors, last accessed October 26, 2017.)\nOther than diversifying geographically, the fund also provides exposure to different types of real estate. In its portfolio, there are real estate companies specializing in retail space, office buildings, industrial warehouses, and residential properties, among others.\nThe best part is, with RWX ETF, investors don\u2019t have to worry about things like getting the properties leased, making sure the tenants pay rent on time or building maintenance. All the hassles are taken care of by the portfolio companies.\nFurthermore, because it is an ETF, the fund is much more liquid than physical properties. If you have ever sold a house before, you would know that it can take weeks and sometimes months before the seller gets a decent offer. And the closing of real estate transactions would involve a significant amount of fees paid to lawyers and real estate agents. RWX ETF, on the other hand, trades throughout the day on a stock exchange. All it takes is a few clicks on the computer screen or a phone call to their stockbroker and an investor would instantly become a part-owner of a large and diversified international real estate portfolio.\nOf course, there\u2019s no such thing as a free lunch. By providing these benefits, the fund charges a management fee, which is currently at 0.59% per year. But given the convenience the fund offers and the sheer size of its income stream, SPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF could be worth considering.\nProcter & Gamble Co: Will PG Stock Increase Its Dividend?",

        "raw_content": "The Supporting Cast (Paperback)\nA Study of Flat and Minor Characters\nPenn State University Press, 9780271026350, 244pp.\nFor every Hamlet, there is a supporting cast; for every Mrs. Dalloway, an entire realm of subordinate portraits. Yet if literary criticism cares at all about significant detail, emergent patterns, and the subtleties in narrative, flat and minor characters are crucial to an understanding of the fictional process itself.\nBeginning with E. M. Forster's landmark study of flat and round characters, this book is both a critical and writerly examination of the species: Why are certain minor characters so salient in readers' minds, and why are flat characters often so comic? Is a name enough to create a character, and if so, what is the vanishing point of characterization? The walking allegory, the narrator, the disrupter, the doppelg nger--how are they used, and to what effect? The Supporting Cast first explores the theoretical limits of character, from structuralist taxonomies to reader-response concerns, with examples culled from a wide range of literature. The author then applies these concepts, in chapters of sustained analysis, to works of Conrad, Forster, and Woolf. The work also provides comments on flat and minor characters in other media and a full-scale character index of Woolf's Jacob's Room.\nDavid Galef is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Mississippi.",

The 19-year-old actress got incredibly close to landing a part in the Marvel tentpole, but she ultimately decided her involvement with the film wouldn\u2019t be right given its African setting.\nRead More:Ryan Coogler\u2019s One-Take Action Scenes Are Becoming His Stunning Technical Trademark\n\u201cOne of the most challenging things for me to do was to walk away from \u2018Black Panther,'\u201d Stenberg said. \u201cI got really, really close and they were like, \u2018Do you want to continue fighting for this?\u2019 And I was like, this isn\u2019t right.\u201d\n\u201cThese are all dark-skin actors playing Africans and I feel like it would have just been off to see me as a biracial American with a Nigerian accent just pretending that I\u2019m the same colour as everyone else in the movie,\u201d she added.\nStenberg said the decision was \u201creally challenging\u201d but ultimately the right call. Marvel and director Ryan Coogler cast female actors such as Lupita Nyong\u2019o, Latitia Wright, and Danai Gurira opposite Chadwick Boseman.\n\u201cThat was really challenging, to make that decision, but I have no regrets,\u201d Stenberg said. \u201cI recognize 100 percent that there are spaces that I should not take up and when I do take up a space it\u2019s because I\u2019ve thought really, really critically about it and I\u2019ve consulted people I really trust and it feels right.\u201d\n\u201cBlack Panther\u201d has been a box office behemoth since its release February 14. The movie has already earned well over $400 million in the U.S. and is on its way to becoming one of the biggest comic book releases in film history.\nThis Article is related to: Film and tagged Amandla Stenberg, Black Panther",

The institution is supposed to have arisen with the expulsion of the kings, traditionally in 510 BC, and it was well established by the early 4th cent. BC The consuls led the troops, controlled the treasury, and were supreme in the government. At first only patricians were eligible, but in 367 BC the Licinian law opened the office to plebeians. Before becoming consul a man generally had to have experience as quaestor, aedile, and praetor, and the minimum age for a consul was normally set at 40 or 45. Ex-consuls became provincial governors as proconsuls. The year was identified by the names of the two consuls in office during that time. Under the empire the title of consul was continued, but only as a title of honor, sometimes conferred on infants or small boys.",

        "raw_content": "The Freedom Act is WORSE than the Patriot Act\nFREEDOM Act Passes Senate, Freedom Dies\nDaniel McAdams | Lew Rockwell Blog - June 3, 2015\nImage Credits: Vinoth Chandar / Flickr.\nBy a vote of 67-32 the Senate today passed the USA FREEDOM Act, just days after the expiration of key elements of the USA PATRIOT Act. The FREEDOM Act is billed as a reform of the unconstitutional and recently-ruled illegal bulk collection of Americans\u2019 telecommunications, but in fact it is a whole new level of attack on civil liberties.\nHere are just a couple of ways the FREEDOM Act is worse than the PATRIOT Act:\n1) The recent decision of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that the bulk collection of American citizens\u2019 telecommunications information was not authorized by the USA PATRIOT Act means that as of this afternoon, the bulk collection of American citizens\u2019 telecommunications information was an illegal act. The government was breaking the law each time it grabbed our metadata. The moment the FREEDOM is signed by President Obama that same activity will become legal. How is making an unconstitutional and illegal act into a legal one a benefit to civil liberties?\n2) The FREEDOM Act turns private telecommunications companies into agents of state security. They will be required to store our personal information and hand it over to state security organs upon demand. How do we know this development is a step in the wrong direction? It is reportedly the brainchild of Gen. Keith B. Alexander, the NSA director at the time! According to press reports, this was but a public relations move to deflect criticism of the bulk collection program. Alexander \u201csaw the move as a way for Obama to respond to public criticism without losing programs the NSA deemed more essential,\u201d reports Homeland Security News.\n3) The FREEDOM Act turns private telecommunications companies into depositories of \u201cpre-crime\u201d data for future use of state security agencies. It is a classic authoritarian move for the state to co-opt and subsume the private sector. Once the FREEDOM Act is signed, Americans\u2019 telecommunications information will be retained by the telecommunications companies for the use of state security agencies in potential future investigations. In other words, an individual under no suspicion of any crime and thus deserving full Fourth and Fifth Amendment protection will nevertheless find himself providing evidence against his future self should that person ever fall under suspicion. That is not jurisprudence in a free society.\n4) The FREEDOM Act provides liability protection for the telecommunications firms who steal and store our private telecommunications information. In other words, there is not a thing you can do about the theft as long as the thief is a \u201cprivate\u201d agent of the state.\nIt is very telling that the same Congressional leaders who have supported the PATRIOT Act for all these years are now propagandizing Americans in favor of the FREEDOM Act.\nFREEDOM Act becomes law; freedom, RIP.",

(NASDAQ:AAPL) and Samsung.\nNaturally, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)\u2019s Nokia Corporation (ADR) (NYSE:NOK) acquisition only served to amplify those concerns.\nHere\u2019s why Micro-Berry could make sense\nLate Wednesday, however, a Wall Street Journal report stated BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) has already \u201cheld preliminary talks with parties interested in buying part or all of the company,\u201d and is now \u201caiming to complete a fast auction process that could be wrapped up by November.\u201d\nIf you think that sounds like a tall order, you\u2019d probably be right.\nAfter all, BlackBerry\u2019s market capitalization currently sits at just over $5.6 billion, so there aren\u2019t many companies capable or willing to pull off a deal of this size, especially with no apparent signs of a near-term recovery for the struggling smartphone maker.\nBut that\u2019s still less than Mr. Softy paid for Nokia Corporation (ADR) (NYSE:NOK), and regardless of whether BlackBerry\u2019s devices and software are picking up steam in the ultra-competitive consumer segment, remember the company largely still exists because of its uncanny ability to cater to the needs of businesses, which require a solid enterprise security software solution.\nAnd while Nokia Corporation (ADR) (NYSE:NOK)\u2019s Lumia smartphones will undoubtedly do wonders to set up Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) for a renewed push in the worldwide mobile space, where they\u2019ve largely lagged behind the more popular smartphones from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Samsung, BlackBerry could serve as a nice supplementary prize to help Microsoft penetrate the also-lucrative enterprise segment.\nBlackBerry Ltd (BBRY), Microsoft Corporation (MSFT): Huawei and Market Share...

        "raw_content": "Ming-Kung Yeh\nMing-Kung Yeh gained his bachelor and master degree from the National Defense Medical Center, Taiwan in 1986 and 1988, respectively. He completed his PhD at the University of Nottingham, UK in 1996. From 1988 to 2008, he worked in the Tri-service General Hospital, Taiwan from a basic pharmacist to a chief pharmacist and became a professor of Preventive Medicine in 2008. He was the Head of the Pharmaceutical Administration, Ministry of National Defense, Taiwan from 2011 to 2013. He was the General Director of the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration, Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) from 2013 to 2014, and a superintendent in MOHW from 2014 to 2016. His research focuses on public food and drug safety and takes an active interest in pharmacy education, practice and policy.\nLatest work with IntechOpen by Ming-Kung Yeh\nBiopharmaceuticals are derived from biological sources, either live organisms or their active components; nowadays, they are mainly produced by biotechnologies. Biopharmaceuticals are extensively used in the treatment of various diseases such as cardiovascular, metabolic, neurological diseases, cancer, and others for which there are no available therapeutic methods. With the advance of science, biopharmaceuticals have revolutionized the treatment, prevention, and diagnosis of many patients with disabling and life-threatening diseases. Innovative biopharmaceuticals definitely improve the life quality of patients and enhance the effectiveness of the healthcare system. This book encompasses the discovery, production, application, and regulation of biopharmaceuticals to demonstrate their research achievement, prospects, and challenges. We expect the significance of biopharmaceuticals to be revealed and emphasized by this book.\nNanotechnologies Applied in Biomedical Vaccines\nBy Yuan-Chuan Chen, Hwei-Fang Cheng, Yi-Chen Yang and Ming- Kung Yeh\nVaccination, one of the most effective strategies to prevent infectious diseases, is the administration of antigenic materials to stimulate an individual\u2019s immune system to develop adaptive immunity to a specific pathogen. Though it is so advantageous for diseases control and prevention, vaccines still have some limitations. Nanotechnology is an approach to prepare a novel biomedicine vaccine with the vaccine consumption and side effects significantly decreased. Regulation is the most important criterion for the development of nanovaccines. All marketing products have to meet the requirement of regulation. The fast-track designation potentially aids in the development and expedites the review of nanovaccines that show promises in an unmet medical need. Here, some successful nanovaccine products are introduced\u2014Inflexal\u00ae V, Epaxal\u00ae, GardasilTM, and CervarixTM have been widely used for the clinical applications, which are delivered either in the form of virosomes or virus-like particles. Vaccines based on nanotechnology may overcome their original disadvantages and lead to the development of painless, safer, and more effective products.\nPart of the book: Micro and Nanotechnologies for Biotechnology\nThe Regulation Requirement of Dengue Vaccines\nDengue fever (dengue), a mosquito-borne disease caused by dengue viruses (DENVs), represents severe public health problems in Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa and other subtropical regions. Many regulatory issues arise along with the development of dengue vaccines. It is required to follow the regulatory pathway for the license application. Dengue vaccines can be approved without local clinical phase III data. The national regulatory authorities (NRAs) must have the information, training and ability to review and approve the application. A novel vaccine product Dengvaxia\u00ae for dengue has been approved in many countries. The approval is based on clinical trials that show the vaccine could reduce about 60% dengue, prevented 90% of severe cases and 80% of hospitalizations. Several other DNA, live-attenuated, purified inactivated, subunit, vectored and chimeric vaccine candidates are currently developing in clinical phases. Although there are still some challenges for the development and regulation of vaccine, the prospects of dengue vaccines are promising provided that we can overcome the difficulty.\nPart of the book: Dengue\nBiotechnologies Applied in Biomedical Vaccines\nBy Yuan\u2010Chuan Chen, Hwei\u2010Fang Cheng, Yi\u2010Chen Yang and Ming\u2010 Kung Yeh\nVaccination, the administration of an antigenic material (vaccine), is considered to be the most effective method for disease prevention and control. A vaccine usually contains an agent that resembles a diseases\u2010causing pathogen and is often made from inactivated microbes, live attenuated microbes, its toxins, or part of surface antigens (subunit). However, the modern biotechnological tools and genomics have opened a new era to develop novel vaccines and many products are successfully marketing around the world. It is important to formulate and deliver these vaccines appropriately to maximize the potential advances in prevention, therapy, and vaccinology. New vaccines employing biotechnological innovations are helping us to change the way for illness prevention. The clinical application of vaccines will be diversified along with the development of biotechnologies. In modern society, the outbreak of many infectious diseases has decreased through vaccination, but the burden of noninfectious diseases is growing. The new biotechnologies may result in not only the appreciation of vaccines which are critical in inducing protection against an infectious disease but also the production of therapeutic vaccines which are effective for alldiseases including infectious and noninfectious diseases.\nPart of the book: Vaccines\nIntroductory Chapter: Biopharmaceuticals\nBy Yuan-Chuan Chen and Ming-Kung Yeh\nPart of the book: Biopharmaceuticals\nCamilla Thorling\nMaja Leitgeb\nKatja Vasi\u0107\nLuigi Tarpani\nHauke Studier\nXiaowen Liang",

        "title": "State is failing vulnerable children: We have to address crisis in child care | Irish Examiner",
        "raw_content": "State is failing vulnerable children: We have to address crisis in child care\nThe Taoiseach\u2019s recent warning about the dangers of an unsustainable expansion of public spending did not stop him promising an increase this year in the overseas development aid budget. But if there is a limit to public spending, which there clearly must be, and if allocating funds requires the setting of priorities, which they do, he should first read \u2014 and read them very carefully \u2014 the latest deeply alarming reports published today by the Child Care Law Reporting Project (CCLRP) before he and his cabinet authorises a bigger cheque for overseas aid.\nThe 16 reports reveal, not for the first time, the views of judges who handle cases concerning alleged or possible child sex abuse, and highlights exasperation at shortfalls in the state care amenities for vulnerable children. In one contribution, a judge accepts that there has been sufficient investment in providing secure care \u2014 normally when allegations are first made and the police and judicial wheels are set in motion \u2014 but goes on to bemoan the absence of planning for placements at later stages, and the anxiety that creates for vulnerable youngsters.\nAnother judge talks of the need to recognise the country\u2019s failure to remedy what the CCLRP\u2019s director succinctly calls the absence of a national system for the robust detection of child sexual abuse, the dearth of co-operation between the criminal justice and child protection systems, and the need for timely therapeutic support for victims of abuse.\nThe reports, based in part on recent court hearings and including a number of case histories, do feature positive\noutcomes, albeit that one of them was the result of sending a profoundly disturbed youngster \u2014 who had survived multiple suicide attempts \u2014 to a special unit in Britain, returning after some months to Ireland for privately-financed care in an adult psychiatric clinic.\nBut, for the most part, they describe failure arising from a toxic cocktail of factors: Complex legal disputes around criminal investigations and evidence that result in delays, and the same cases rolling at great expense in and out of the courts; difficulties in getting specialist assessments; and frustrated judges ordering the Child and Family Agency to find the right placements \u2014 all too often the placements they know do not exist. This happens, says the CCLRP in its most damning indictment, \u201cweek after week\u201d, adding that it\u2019s been noted by judges for the past 25 years.\nIt has, therefore, been tolerated by successive governments for a quarter of a century, during which there have been many fine words about the key role the State and society has in protecting children. Many changes promised by the then government in response to the 2009 Ryan Report on child sex abuse have been made. The aim of its 99-point implementation plan, however, was to strengthen child care policy and improve the organisation and delivery of children\u2019s services. But it is, as we have been told yet again today, still a work in progress.\nIf the Taoiseach can find the funds for upping overseas aid, dealing with this resource problem at home must be given at the very least equal priority.",

We've shown we can do that. We did it in December and we are going to do it again.\"\nUnder plans released by the European Commission, Brussels would be able to restrict the UK's access to the single market without going through the lengthy European Court of Justice (ECJ) legal process.\nThe position paper on transitional arrangements in the withdrawal agreement said there should be a \"mechanism\" allowing the EU to \"suspend certain benefits\" of single market membership during the transition period.\nSuch a move would be considered if referring the matter to the ECJ \"would not bring in time the necessary remedies\", according to the document, which sets out the EU's position on a transition deal in legal language.\nThe document also said the UK would only be \"consulted\" when decisions are made on fishing quotas during the period.\nMrs May is chairing the European Union exit and trade (strategy and negotiations) sub-committee in sessions on Wednesday and Thursday to thrash out the UK's position on crunch issues regarding the future relationship with Brussels.\nWednesday's talks are expected to focus on immigration and Northern Ireland, with the future partnership being considered on Thursday.\ntheresa MayBrexitUK",

        "raw_content": "Can Parnell Square become Dublin\u2019s cultural hot spot?\nNew Poetry Ireland HQ will add Seamus Heaney library to artistic environment\nThere are ambitious plans to develop the area as a literary hub, with a major new Central Library, designed by Grafton Architects\nFrom the Mansion House to City Hall, Leinster House to Charlemont House, you can see the shifts of ambition and power in the shape of Dublin city. While, today, it is city planners and the developers of shopping centres that seem to hold most sway over where the major civic and public centres sit, back in the Georgian era, Dublin was defined by the social and financial aspirations of its various landowners. With that in mind, you could almost look at Georgian Dublin as an architectural Game of Thrones.\nFirst it was all about the route from Dublin Castle to College Green. Then, when Lord Mountjoy (also known as Luke Gardiner) created Sackville Mall, the precursor to O\u2019Connell Street, everyone began to look north. Enter James Fitzgerald, the Earl of Kildare. He believed, in his entitled manner, that fashion would follow in whatever direction he led. He was right too. His Leinster House was a sufficient magnet and the southside became the place to be once more. Now there are moves afoot to rebalance things, with a new cultural quarter planned for Parnell Square.\nCultural quarters have a chequered history in Dublin, but although parts of it may have appeared neglected over the years, Parnell Square also has a head start, with the Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane having presided over the top of the square in Charlemont House, since 1933. Add to this the Dublin Writers Museum, the Gate Theatre, the Garden of Remembrance and Hillsboro Fine Art, plus the Luas extension making access even easier, and the real question should perhaps be why hasn\u2019t something happened there sooner?\nIn fact, \u201csomething\u201d had already happened and, back in its heyday, Parnell Square was one of Dublin\u2019s hot spots. When Bartholomew Mosse founded the Rotunda Hospital, in 1745, his dream was to make childbirth safer for women of all classes. His first wife, and son, had died after complications in labour, and he was a man on a mission. To help fund the hospital, he commissioned concert halls and a pleasure gardens on the site.\nIt\u2019s an interesting reversal, as today, cultural institutions are dependent on subsidies, but evidently, back then, classical music concerts and performances could be money spinners to support healthcare. Georgian Pleasure Gardens were also, apparently, quite the thing. Lanterns cast enticing light over paths after dark, and visitors could book booths for supper, or wander about to listen to music played on various stages. In the closely monitored moral world of the era, Pleasure Gardens were something either to be feared, or eagerly embraced.\nA centrepiece will include the Seamus Heaney Working Library, comprising the books the poet referred to when working on his own compositions and translations\nToday, all that remains of the green space is the Memorial Gardens. The assembly rooms are still there, however, which the Rotunda leases to the Gate Theatre and MCD, who run the Ambassador. Pleasure Gardens aside, there are ambitious plans to develop the area as a literary hub, with a major new Central Library, designed by Grafton Architects, with project partners Shaffrey Associates, plus a new headquarters for Poetry Ireland and the Irish Heritage Trust, designed by McCullough Mulvin at 11 Parnell Square.\nA centrepiece at the new Poetry Ireland HQ will include the Seamus Heaney Working Library, comprising Heaney\u2019s own collections of poetry. These are the books he referred to when working on his own compositions and translations, as well as volumes from his student days. According to Heaney\u2019s daughter, Catherine, who is director of the Seamus Heaney Estate, \u201cthe idea of donating them really came from my mother, but we agreed with her, me, and my brothers, Mick and Chris. It seemed exactly the right place. He would be really gratified, she says.\n\u201cI\u2019ll be excited to see how they\u2019re used,\u201d she continues. \u201cYou get a sense of who Dad read. He had such a keen interest in other poets, and also younger poets. Each writer is different, but Dad went on writing jags. For a lot of poets it works that way, things would come in a burst, but all those books were kept in a study in our house in Sandymount, and down in Wicklow in the cottage in Glanmore. That\u2019s where he did his writing.\u201d\nTendered for another building\nPoetry Ireland director Maureen Kennelly picks up the story. \u201cThe discussions date back as far as 2009, but the climate wasn\u2019t particularly good then,\u201d she says ruefully. \u201cWe had tendered for another building in Temple Bar, but when we saw this one, we realised what a gem it was. That, and the chance to be part of the literary hub on Parnell Square. With the Irish Writers Centre there too, there\u2019s a nice confluence. The timing is good, with the Luas Cross City opening up the whole area. The Olivier Cornet Gallery, O\u2019Reilly Theatre, Fishamble and Children\u2019s Books Ireland are all on the doorstep, so it\u2019s time for it to regain its former glory.\u201d\nNiall McCullough of McCullough Mulvin, who had already delved into the history of the area, in his fascinating book Dublin an Urban History (Anne Street Press, 2007), is passionate about the project. \u201cNo 11 was built by the Earls of Ormond in the 17th century,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was their townhouse, the top place in town, looking out over the park, with a sedan chair taxi rank at the corner.\u201d He describes how later the building was bought by the County Council, and Victorian rooms added, which, to him are part of the building\u2019s charm. \u201cI love mixed things that evolve over time,\u201d he says.\n\u201cA lot of this project is about repair, rather than dramatic extensions,\u201d he continues. \u201cThe ground floor and first floor are really about opening the house up as public space again. They were party rooms. Georgian houses always had three public rooms, so that you could circulate, and escape from a bore.\u201d The plans also include a new cafe area and a re-landscaping of the gardens at the back.\nThe proposed new Central Library\nCentral to life\nThe cafe will be part of the Poetry Ireland plan to celebrate poetry as something central to our lives, for while politicians and public figures frequently trumpet the successes of our poets on the international stage, how many people actually embrace it on a daily basis? Maybe we\u2019re scarred by rote learning, or frightened off by the perceived tedium of forms that, at the end of the day, quite simply weren\u2019t for us.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s more like homoeopathic doses,\u201d says poet Paula Meehan. \u201cPeople often reach for poetry at threshold experiences: like birth, falling in love, death; when they\u2019re trying to make language fit the intensity of those experiences. Poetry has to be there when people need it, and that involves having communities of poets. When the tsunami is coming towards you, you mightn\u2019t having the space to make elaborate odes and poems,\u201d she notes, underlining the reason to cherish our poets, even when we may not be reaching, daily, for their work.\n\u201cTo ritualise language is so inherently human, whether it\u2019s in prayers or hunting spells or song. Also poets keep track of the dreaming of the human species. . . That doesn\u2019t mean we can all be famous and rich, but there has to be a critical mass.\u201d That critical mass is now expanding to embrace the new communities and groups making their home in Ireland, and the new centre will include a resource space. \u201cIt\u2019s a very rich time,\u201d says Meehan.\nPeople still have a barrier. And we earnestly believe that once you open it up to people and make it real in their lives, you\u2019re unlocking something\nSome works from Ireland\u2019s poets will be embedded in the walls of the centre itself, and Kennelly and her team have been enjoying seeking out poems that allude to architecture, and, following our conversation, she sends on some of the words they have found, including Derek Mahon\u2019s \u201cEven now there are places where a thought might grow,\u201d and Vona Groarke\u2019s \u201crooms that listen nicely to each other\u201d, concluding with Heaney\u2019s own \u201cI rhyme / To see myself, to set the darkness echoing\u201d.\n\u201cWe\u2019re acutely aware of the need to push the art form out there,\u201d says Kennelly. \u201cPeople still have a barrier. And we earnestly believe that once you open it up to people and make it real in their lives, you\u2019re unlocking something.\u201d\nTOWARDS A CULTURAL QUARTER: TIMELINE AND FUNDING\nThe Parnell Square Cultural Quarter project replaces the current library at the Ilac Centre with a new Central Library on the site of the former Col\u00e1iste Mhuire, on the north side of Parnell Square. It will include a music hub, a design space, an intercultural space, an education centre, cafe, and exhibition areas. Going to planning this summer, the estimated completion date is 2022.\nThe project is financed by the Parnell Square Foundation, and implemented by its wholly owned development company PSQ Developments Limited. The foundation includes representatives from Dublin City Council and Kennedy Wilson, an international real estate investment and services company based in Beverly Hills, with offices in countries around the world, including the UK, Ireland, Spain and Japan (kennedywilson.com).\nSeed funding of \u20ac4.8 million has been committed by Kennedy Wilson to bring the project to planning, with \u20ac2.1 million expended to date. Total project costs are currently estimated at just over \u20ac100 million, and a minimum of 51 per cent of the project is to be funded via philanthropy.\nThe Poetry Ireland Centre with The Irish Heritage Trust has already received planning permission for No 11 Parnell Square. Almost \u20ac1 million has been raised against a total target of \u20ac5 million. According to Poetry Ireland director Maureen Kennelly, \u201cwe\u2019d like to be opening the doors of the completed centre in late 2019 or Spring 2020\u201d. The Dublin UNESCO City of Literature designation is a great help in fundraising, says Kennelly. \u201cInternationally it\u2019s a really good calling card for us.\u201d\nThe Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane will embark on a major refurbishment of the original galleries in Charlemont House later this year. According to director Barbara Dawson, the 2016 wing will remain open, with exhibitions by artists including Amanda Dunsmore, Niamh McCann, Doireann O\u2019Malley and Rachel Maclean.\nBITS AND PIECES? CULTURAL QUARTERS IN DUBLIN\nAs the Labour Party pushes for an Educational and Cultural Hub in Drumcondra, based on the proximity of DCU, St Patrick\u2019s College and the Marino Institute of Education, you could forgiven for wondering if any small cluster of vaguely creative spaces are hubs-in-waiting. The history of Cultural Hubs proves that it\u2019s not always plain sailing.\nRunning alongside the Liffey, Temple Bar was set to be a bus station. Cheap rents, and stalwart tenants, including the Project Arts Centre and the Temple Bar Gallery and Studios, led to artists moving in, though judging from experience, their \u201cbohemian\u201d life was pretty damn cold in the winter. Group 91, a consortium of architects, won the competition to recreate the area as a Cultural Quarter in 1992. While today Temple Bar is frequently in the news for superpubs and stag and hen parties, don\u2019t forget it still houses cultural hot spots including the original TBG&S and Project, the Gallery of Photography, Smock Alley Theatre, the Graphic Studio and The Library Project.\nBack in the days when the Irish Museum of Modern Art was just a twinkle in Charlie Haughey\u2019s eye, the large glass-fronted warehouse space known as Stack A in Dublin\u2019s Docklands (DDDA) was one of the options for Ireland\u2019s new museum of contemporary art. Alongside the founding of the Dublin Docklands Development Authority came a cultural levy of IR\u00a31 (\u20ac1.27) per sq ft of office space to subsidise the creation of a cultural space in the area. The levy was never applied, IMMA went to the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, and Stack A became CHQ, now home to EPIC, the Irish Emigration Museum.\nAlongside the Grand Canal Theatre in the Docklands, there was talk of the Abbey Theatre moving to George\u2019s Dock, and a 48 metre Antony Gormley sculpture was commissioned but never concluded. With all the building going on in the area, the DDDA had the scope to become a major player on the cultural scene, and initially things looked like they could be good. Their 2008 Docklands Masterplan had, as its primary policy, that they would \u201censure that arts and culture become an integral part of the Docklands\u2019 identity\u2026\u201d The document also noted that \u201cthe development of affordable live-work accommodation and studios/workspaces for creative practitioners including craft workers should be encouraged and promoted in the Docklands.\u201d Today, The Green on Red Gallery at Spencer Dock is one of the few cultural outposts in an area where galleries and other creative facilities could easily have been knitted in from the outset.\nElsewhere, Smithfield looked as if it could become interesting, with The Lighthouse Cinema as an anchor, and the artist\u2019s collective Block T taking on a huge disused warehouse on the Square, which they configured to include 70-plus studio and workshop spaces. But as Smithfield finally began to thrive, the Block T artists were forced out when a commercial tenant eyed up their building. They have since decamped to Dublin 8, where doubtless they\u2019re considering any further potential gentrification of their new area with a wary gaze.\nThe experiences of both Dublin Docklands and the artists of Block T prove that whether the cultural element of a regeneration project is top down, or grassroots, it is generally the first to suffer when things take a turn for the better \u2013 or for the worse.\nMaureen Kennelly\nKennedywilson\nPsq Developments\nShaffrey\nDublin\u2019s north quays: Then and now in photographs\nConstancy and change writ large in Louise Neiland's work\n1950s Dublin: saving grand old houses from the politicians who hated them\nArt in focus: Her Own Unknown by Dragana Juri\u0161ic\nThe Famine: artists and the nightmare of our \u2018crushed and bleeding soul\u2019\nHuman bodies taken over by anxiety\nFive of the best art exhibitions to see this week\nWant to get close to nature?

        "raw_content": "Ireland are beating the All Blacks with 15 minutes to go but everything is kicking off in the old man\u2019s corporate box\n\u201cIf it was up to me, you\u2019d be watching the end of this match from pitch-side, cheering Ireland on through a hole in your throat.\u201d\nIt\u2019s unbelievable. Ireland are leading the All Blacks by 10 points with 15 minutes to go. But the tension down on the pitch is nothing compared to the atmos in the old man\u2019s corporate box.\nHennessy has uncovered a plot to replace the old man as the leader of New Republic with Peter Casey. And yet Eduard, the chief plotter, is helping himself to the old man\u2019s scotch and his turkey and Brie mini ciabattas as if nothing was wrong.\nHennessy is fit to kill him \u2013 quite literally as it happens.\n\u201cForty years ago,\u201d he goes, \u201cI\u2019d have cut his throat, thrown him over the rail and watched him bleed out in the West Stand Lower. I hate the way politics has gone.\u201d\nThe old man\u2019s there, \u201cCalm yourself, Old Scout. I told you how I wanted to handle this thing.\u201d\n\u201cIt still makes me angry, Charlie.\u201d\nThe All Blacks win a penalty. Me, JP, Oisinn, Fionn and Christian look at each other. We\u2019re all thinking the same thing. Not again. Beauden Barrett splits the chopsticks and suddenly it\u2019s a one score game with 10 minutes to go.\nEduard looks around him and goes, \u201cIt\u2019s all beginning to look a bit inevitable, isn\u2019t it?\u201d\nAnd Hennessy can\u2019t stay quiet any longer. He\u2019s like, \u201cThat\u2019s always been your fundamental problem, Eduard \u2013 your lack of faith.\u201d\nEduard has no idea what the dude is even talking about. He goes, \u201cWhat\u2019s that supposed to mean?\u201d\nThe old man shakes his head. \u201cHennessy,\u201d he goes, \u201cthis isn\u2019t how I wanted to do this thing\u201d.\nEduard\u2019s there, \u201cNo, Charles, I\u2019d like to know what Hennessy meant by that comment?\u201d\n\u201cWe know,\u201d Hennessy goes. \u201cAll about your contacts with Peter Casey.\u201d\nOh, that shocks the dude. He turns pretty much white. He\u2019s there, \u201cI swear on the lives of my children that I have had no contact with Peter Casey.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019ve been tapping your phone for weeks,\u201d Hennessy goes. \u201cAnd reading your emails. Who\u2019s Aurora, by the way? Does your wife know about her?\u201d\nOutside, beyond that glass, the roar goes up as the hits go in. This is \u2013 honestly \u2013 the greatest performance I\u2019ve ever seen from an Ireland team and yet it\u2019s hord to know whether to watch what\u2019s going on out there or what\u2019s going on in here.\n\u201cOh, so that\u2019s what this is?\u201d Eduard goes. \u201cYou\u2019re going to try to blackmail me, are you?\u201d\nHennessy\u2019s like, \u201cHey, if it was up to me, you\u2019d be watching the end of this match from pitch-side, cheering Ireland on through a hole in your throat.\u201d\nCrow Street: A solid addition to Temple Bar's food scene\n\u201cWas that a threat? Because there are witnesses in this corporate box,\u201d and he immediately looks at Martell Bagnel, a dude the old man knows from Portmornock Golf Club.\nHennessy laughs. \u201cOf course,\u201d he goes, \u201cthe New Republic candidate for Cork South-Central is in on it, too. Your grammar is atrocious, by the way.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019ll sue you for breach of privacy,\u201d Martell goes.\n\u201cStop!\u201d the old man suddenly shouts. \u201cThis isn\u2019t how I wanted this thing to play out.\u201d\n\u201cMy wife knows all about Aurora,\u201d Eduard tries to go. \u201cWe\u2019ve had an open marriage since 2003.\u201d\nI wish I could record this and watch it straight after the match.\n\u201cNo one\u2019s trying to blackmail anyone,\u201d the old man goes. \u201cAs a matter of fact, I\u2019m more than happy for this matter to take its democratic course.\u201d\nEduard\u2019s like, \u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d\n\u201cWell, I presume you\u2019re planning to table some kind of motion of no confidence in me at the Ord Fheis in two weeks\u2019 time?\u201d\nThe dude can\u2019t even look the old man in the eye.\n\u201cYes,\u201d he goes. \u201cI\u2019m sorry to say it, Charles \u2013 I know we go back a long time \u2013 but I don\u2019t believe you are the man to lead the party into the next general election.\u201d\nJoey Corbery comes on for Johnny Sexton. \u201cFor me,\u201d I go, \u201cthat was Johnny\u2019s greatest ever performance in an Irish jersey\u201d.\nOisinn\u2019s there, \u201cYou say that every time he plays.\u201d\n\u201cAnd I mean it every time he plays.\u201d\nThe old man just smiles at Eduard. \u201cI understand where you\u2019re coming from,\u201d he goes. \u201cPeter Casey has arrived on the scene. He\u2019s younger than me. He\u2019s got more energy. I can understand how people might see him as the future of the party and me as the past.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s not personal,\u201d Eduard goes.\n\u201cI realise that. Which is why I\u2019m prepared to step aside as the leader of New Republic.\u201d\n\u201cIf you can show me over the coming days that there is an appetite for change among the membership, then I\u2019ll stand down before you even have to submit your motion.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s very magnanimous of you, Charles.\u201d\n\u201cWhatever else I might be, Eduard, I\u2019m still a believer in democracy. Now, can I ask you to leave please?\u201d\n\u201cThis box.\u201d\n\u201cBut there\u2019s still two or three minutes left. I\u2019d like to see how it ends.\u201d\n\u201cWhy don\u2019t you ring Peter Casey? See if he has a corporate box in the stadium?\u201d\n\u201cHe doesn\u2019t. I think he\u2019s more GAA.\u201d\n\u201cOh, well \u2013 it takes all sort, etcetera, etcetera. I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll bring other qualities to the job. Now, please be gone \u2013 and take your co-conspirator with you.\u201d\nThe two dudes leave, muttering to themselves.\n\u201cShame,\u201d the old man goes. \u201cI was considering Martell as my future minister for foreign affairs.\u201d\nI watch with my hort in my mouth as the All Blacks stort pinging the ball around. I reach for a turkey and Brie mini ciabatta and the old man goes, \u201cProbably best you don\u2019t eat those, Kicker,\u201d and then \u2013 I swear to God \u2013 Hennessy opens up a Tupperware container and tips what\u2019s left of them into it.\nHennessy goes, \u201cGet these out of here,\u201d then he hands the container to some dude in a black suit, who puts the Tupperware box into a briefcase and walks out.\nThe old man stands beside me and stares down at the pitch. \u201cThey\u2019re going to hold on,\u201d he goes.\nA second or two later, New Zealand drop the ball and it\u2019s all over. And suddenly Martell comes running back into the box, going, \u201cQuick! Something\u2019s wrong with Eduard! He\u2019s fallen down the stairs!\u201d\nNobody moves. And the old man goes, \u201cThat\u2019s the wonderful thing about this team.

        "raw_content": "Japanese Knotweed Information for Property Developers\nPosted on August 6, 2018 August 6, 2018 by Japanese Knotweed Expert\nIf you work in the property sector, then you are probably already aware of Japanese Knotweed and the complications it can cause for a development project.\nAn infestation of Japanese Knotweed can be an extremely costly issue if it isn\u2019t dealt with quickly and effectively, so it is important to know how to identify Japanese Knotweed, and what you should do if you suspect you have it on your site.\nContinuing with works on a site which you know contains Japanese Knotweed is nothing short of foolish. Japanese Knotweed can devalue property by up to 50%, meaning all your investment will be in vain. Additionally, mortgage lenders will not give funds for properties with Japanese Knotweed, so you may find yourself unable to sell the development prior to completion.\nIf you are developing with the intention of keeping the property in your portfolio then you may be setting yourself up for further repair costs in the future, as Japanese Knotweed will seek out any weaknesses in foundations and exploit them, potentially causing serious structural damage.\nIn addition to all of this, there are legal implications to having Japanese Knotweed on your site. In allowing the infestation to spread onto neighbouring properties, you are breaking the law. Neighbours are able to initiate legal proceedings against you, meaning you could be liable for claims running into thousands of pounds, and even prosecution in some extreme cases.\nIf you suspect you have Japanese Knotweed on your site the don\u2019t take the risk, contact us today for further advice.",

        "raw_content": "Welcome back! Here at JC Manhattan Locksmiths, a top locksmith in Manhattan, KS, we\u2019re offering tips on how to increase your home security. Last week we talked about keys and locks. Today, we\u2019ll go over some information regarding doors and windows.\nFirst, remember that the doors and windows of your home are the easiest point of entry for an intruder. A good investment for your doors are ones constructed out of steel or solid wood. Hollow wood doors can easily be kicked in. When installing your doors, be sure to install them with the hinges inside the door so that the hinges cannot be easily removed. Watch out for gaps between doors and frames, as these gaps can make it easier for prying. Another excellent investment is doors installed with a high security deadbolt. If you choose to go with deadbolts, don\u2019t forget about your back door and the door connecting your house to the garage. Speaking of your garage, make sure when you arrive home and close the garage that you watch it shut. This way someone cannot sneak into the garage while the door is closing.\nIf you\u2019ve got a sliding back door, a great way to reinforce it is by placing a solid wood or metal rod on the inside track. For your windows, make sure they can all be locked securely. During summer months, when you go to bed at night, don\u2019t leave ground floor windows open or unlocked.",

        "raw_content": "Make use of Trinidad\u2019s Oil and Gas experience, expertise \u2026 But also address trade barrier issues \u2013Energy Chamber President\nEnergy Chamber President, Manniram Prashad\nPresident of the Guyana Oil and Gas Energy Chamber (GOGEC), Manniram Prashad, has welcomed with open arms, the recently signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Energy between Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago.\nIn fact, the Energy Chamber President believes that Guyanese, and the Government by extension, should be taking the opportunity to make use of Trinidad and Tobago\u2019s 100 years of oil and gas experience and expertise.\nIn a missive to the media, Prashad said, \u201cTrinidad has tremendous experience and expertise in the oil and gas industry and we should make use of that. The MoU sets out the framework for co-operation and collaboration between the two countries to work with each other\u2026\n\u201cI am in support of Trinidadian companies investing in Guyana as they have been doing so over the years\u2026\u201d\nHe added, \u201cGuyana has benefited significantly from debt write offs from Trinidad and their favourable petroleum dealings. In fact, when our country was in a bad state, many Guyanese went to Trinidad in search for a better life and were accommodated by Trinidadian families. We must not forget that\u2026\u201d\nBut even as Guyana pursues a symbiotic relationship with Trinidad in the oil sector, Prashad said that there needs to be greater focus on agriculture and trade related issues which over the years, have worked against Guyanese exporters.\nHe insisted that Guyana must confront these issues with Trinidad. Once this is done, Prashad said that he would urge all private sector bodies in Guyana to partner with GOGEC and explore joint ventures with the Trinidadian Private Sector.\nSINGING OF HISTORIC MOU\nAfter several rounds of \u201cintense\u201d discussions, President David Granger and Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago, Dr. Keith Rowley, signed the MoU on Energy on Wednesday morning at State House.\nPresident Granger promised that the MoU is not a \u201csell out\u201d of the sector to Trinidad and Tobago. He insisted that there is nothing for the private sector to worry about; that the agreement will allow both countries to benefit from the wealth to come.\nGranger said, \u201cThe MoU is largely concerned with energy but there are other areas of interest. We extended our conversation in the area of agriculture, sport, and security, and we expect as a result of this engagement today, relations between the two Republics will become stronger.\u201d\nThe Head of State added, \u201cThere is much to be learnt from Trinidad and Tobago in terms of exports, standard of living, education, and the petroleum sector. By collaborating, we will be able to combine our natural resources with their entrepreneurial expertise and it will turn out to be a win-win situation. This is a significant step in making both parties stronger. We will be able to benefit from the experiences of Trinidad.\u201d\nPrime Minister, Dr. Rowley said that he was honoured to have inked such an important agreement with Guyana but did not hesitate to express his disappointment with the controversy that it sparked.\nThe politician said, \u201cTo those who are mindful of a TT takeover of Guyana\u2019s good fortunes, to me, that is disappointing because we are working for all people of CARICOM to do better. So to come up against that, it is disappointing. This is simply the participation of a good neighbour with those who have a need for our finance, our skills, our experience. It is my expectation that investment from Guyana too would be welcomed in Trinidad and Tobago.\u201d\nDr. Rowley also sought to remind that when Guyana found itself in the grip of a serious economic crisis in 1981, it was Trinidad and Tobago that loaned it $98M. By 1996, that debt climbed to $536M and Trinidad was at the end of its oil boom.\nThe Twin Island Republic desperately needed to be repaid but Guyana was still cash strapped. Rowley reminded this morning that the TT government took the decision to write off the debt.\nHe said, \u201cBut we are not holding that as any quid pro quo (a favour for a favour) now. We treated that as circumstantial and we maintain that we are willing to cooperate with Guyana. We hope to continue to travel this road together.\u201d\nOr by Email: [email protected] / [email protected]hoo.com",

        "raw_content": "September 6, 2017 /in News /by Kathy Chittley-Young\nStarting a new job can be exciting. New office, new co-workers, new corner sandwich shop gems to discover. It can also be nerve-racking \u2013 new office, new co-workers, no idea where to find a decent BLT. Not to mention the added performance anxiety of that probationary period.\nSetting out probation periods in employment contracts is becoming an increasingly common practice. Resumes and interviews can only go so far towards sussing out the perfect candidate. A trial period lets an employer get to know their new hire and see if he or she lives up to all that their cover letter promised. It lets the employer assess his or her suitability for their company.\nThere is often a lot of confusion surrounding probationary work periods among new hires. Its length, conditions and your rights \u2013 or lack thereof \u2013 during this time are a mystery to many. So let\u2019s demystify them, shall we?\nLet\u2019s start by clarifying what it is, legally speaking. Statutory probation periods are a period of time at the beginning of an individual\u2019s employment when they can be terminated without any notice or pay in lieu thereof.\nWhat Does It Mean To Be On Probation?\nLegally, a probationary employee was first defined in 1979 by Justice Van Camp in the case of Mitchell v. The Queen:\nThe term is well understood in business and industry as an employee, who is being tested to enable the employer to ascertain the suitability of the employee for its purposes. Probation is a period when the employee may prove that he is suitable for regular employment as a permanent employee and will meet the standards set by the employer.\nHow Long Is The Probation Period?\nStatutory probation periods vary in length from province to province. They range from just 30 days in Manitoba to six months in New Brunswick. Ontario fits comfortably in the middle with a three-month probationary period.\nEmployers can set out a different probationary length in their new hires\u2019 contract but it may not exceed the statutory provincial length. Therefore, it would be fine for an Ontario worker to be on probation for two months but four would be unacceptable and would not be upheld in court.\nProbationary Periods Must Be Written In Your Contract\nProbationary periods are not automatic. Just because you have started a new job does not necessarily mean that you are on probation. A probationary period must be clearly stated in your employment contract. A contract that states something to the effect of: employee performance will be reviewed after three months will not likely be considered a probationary period if a situation is brought to court.\nMention of a probationary period can affect whether or not an employee takes a job, especially if they would be quitting one position for another. A probationary period means that they could be fired from their new position at their employer\u2019s whim and left without the safety net of termination pay.\nIt is therefore advantageous to all employees if their contract makes no mention of this period. That way, if an employee is fired during the first three months of their employment and their contract did not make mention of a probationary period, they may be entitled to termination notice or pay.\nWrongful Dismissal During The Probationary Period\nEven during the probationary period, new employees are not entirely vulnerable to the whims of their new employer. Wrongful dismissal cases during the probationary period are rare, largely due to the fact that the notice period of such a short period of time would be small, as would the damages. The Employment Standards Act doesn\u2019t set out a notice period for employees of less than three months. However, courts are still entitled to apply common law periods of reasonable notice when they feel it is appropriate.\nIn Ritchie v. Intercontinental Packers Ltd. (1982) Justice Noble clarified the duty of the employer to act reasonably and in good faith when terminating an employee during the probationary period. When a probationary employee is fired, the employer must have \u201cacted fairly and with reasonable diligence\u201d in determining if the probationary employee was \u201csuitable in the job for which he was being tested.\u201d\nThis means that the employee must have been \u201cgiven a reasonable opportunity to demonstrate his ability to meet the standards the employer sets out when he is hired.\u201d\nProbationary Period Advice for Employers\nThe threshold for dismissing a probationary employee, however, is low. If the employer simply finds them unsuitable for the position \u2013 maybe they just don\u2019t jive with the rest of the team \u2013 that is often enough. However, when dealing with probationary employees, employers should:\ngo over the probationary employment conditions with their new hire;\nevaluate the new employee\u2019s performance and suitability to the job based on the requirements of the position and their fit within the organization; and\nlet the employee know of any shortcomings and give them the chance to improve.\nProbationary Period Legal Experts\nIf you have further questions about the statutory probation period and what it means for you either as an employee or an employer, contact KCY at LAW by calling (905) 639-0999 or get in touch online.\nhttps://www.kcyatlaw.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Probationary-Period-Advice.jpg 250 659 Kathy Chittley-Young https://www.kcyatlaw.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/KCY-at-LAW.svg Kathy Chittley-Young2017-09-06 08:00:112018-06-04 13:06:14Probationary Period - Advice & Information\nSick Pay Entitlements in Ontario Employee Background Checks Canada \u2013 Part 1",

Kent State Alumnus Julian Edelman to Start in Super Bowl LIII\nJulian Edelman will be in a familiar place on Feb. 3.\nThe Super Bowl.\nThe New England Patriots wide receiver and former Kent State University star is making his fourth trip to the NFL title game as the Patriots face the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII.\nMr. Edelman also appeared in Super Bowl XLVI against the New York Giants, Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks and Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons. He was injured last year and was unable to take part in the Patriots loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LII.\nMr. Edelman was drafted by New England in the seventh round of the NFL Draft in 2009. While he was a quarterback for the Golden Flashes, he has blossomed as a star wide receiver in the NFL.\nThis season, Mr. Edelman finished with 74 receptions for 850 receiving yards and six touchdowns. The Patriots finished with a record of 11-5 and defeated Kansas City in overtime for the AFC title.\nFor this Super Bowl, national media have made light of Mr. Edelman\u2019s Kent State career, specifically when he led the Golden Flashes against Miami University in 2006 and 2007. That\u2019s because the RedHawks featured a wide receiver named Sean McVay, who is now head coach of the Rams.\nEach game was won by the visiting team, so Mr. Edelman and Mr. McVay are 1-1 as opposing players.\nMr. Edelman is well known for his acrobatic catch during the final minutes of a drive that forced the first-ever Super Bowl overtime game. The Patriots went on to beat the Falcons 34-28 in Super Bowl XLI.\nWant to know more about Kent State\u2019s Super Bowl star?

        "raw_content": "The MLB says an investigation found no evidence of allegations of racism that the Mariners' former director of high performance made made against the organization.\nMajor League Baseball's independent investigation found no credible evidence to support claims of disparaging comments and discriminatory treatment by members of the Seattle Mariners front office.\nMLB said in a statement Wednesday that the investigation found the Mariners did not violate baseball's \"workplace code of conduct, or applicable anti-discrimination law,\" in the treatment of Lorena Martin or in her termination by the club. Martin was the club's director of high performance for one season, then was fired following the 2018 season.\nThe investigation also concluded there was no evidence to support Martin's claims that general manager Jerry Dipoto, director of player development Andy McKay and manager Scott Servais made disparaging comments against Latino players. The Mariners have denied Martin's claims since they were first made.\nThe investigation was conducted by Epstein Becker Green, a law firm specializing in labor and employment matters. MLB said the firm's lawyers interviewed 17 potential witnesses, including Martin.\nMartin took to social media on Wednesday in response to the MLB investigation, saying she is \"disappointed but not surprised at the outcome.\" In her statement, Martin said she was interviewed by Jennifer Gefsky, a former MLB deputy general counsel who is now an Epstein Becker partner.\n\"It is also puzzling why the interviews and information obtained is being kept confidential. I would have hoped for a bit more transparency,\" Martin wrote. \"More importantly, there were no tapes, no emails, no hard evidence requested nor evaluated other than the questioning of individuals most of whom are still employed by the Mariners. Notwithstanding this decision, I remain confident that the truth will come out and that the damage done to my career will abate.\"\nMartin was hired away from the Los Angeles Lakers with much fanfare by Dipoto. Her first public allegations came in November when she posted on social media claims that Dipoto, McKay and Servais had called Latino players \"lazy, dumb and stupid.\"\n\"I hired her. At the end of the day we believe that, I guess, justice will prevail. There is an ongoing investigation I'm not going to get into,\" Dipoto said two weeks ago in his first public comments about the allegations. \"I've been at this for 30 years, I know a lot of people in the game. I'm not a sexist, nor am I a racist. The accusations that have been made are untrue. I believe that will wash out as this unfolds. I can only speak for myself. The responsibility for this development of the program and hiring Dr. Martin to come here, it's on me. I take full responsibility for it.\"\nMartin's allegations include that she went to team owners John Stanton and Buck Ferguson and CEO Kevin Mather as far back as last March to complain about alleged discriminatory treatment. Her lawsuit also said several Latino players complained to Martin about feeling excluded and that Dipoto took midseason steps last year to undermine the progress and mental state of star pitcher Felix Hernandez.\nMartin's lawsuit countered claims by the team that Martin did not approach anybody with complaints of racial and gender discrimination before she made her initial accusatory posts on social media.\nThe team's reasons for seeking Martin's termination were revealed in a December 2018 filing in King County Superior Court in response to Martin's lawsuit. The club's response originally was filed in an attempt to have her situation settled in arbitration, but it became public after it was attached to a motion filed by Martin's attorney.\nThe Mariners say employees that were not identified warned Dipoto last March that Martin was ignoring medical advice on treatment of injured players and she was misrepresenting herself \"as a medical doctor to other MLB teams' staff.\"\nThe team also said it had received \"overwhelming and accumulating\" employee complaints about Martin.\n\"In terms of the people I work with on a daily basis, the support has been unanimous and 100 percent positive,\" McKay said in late January. \"The accusations are serious but they are completely false. I never said anything like that. I've never thought that, I've never felt it. It didn't happen.\"",

        "raw_content": "Hiroyasu Tsuri/Twoone\nTWOONE\u2019s real name is Hiroyasu Tsuri. He grew up in Yokohama, a Japanese city south of Tokyo. The artistic expression always came as a natural and instinctive thing for the young Hiroyasu. Drawing and crafting have been major part of his life for about as long as he can remember. As a teenager, Hiroyasu was introduced to the contemporary painting through subcultures of skateboarding and urban art, both of whom heavily influenced his visual vocabulary. He began experimenting with graffiti and various other artistic styles in the streets of his hometown first and later in Melbourne where he moved at the age of 18. Over the years, he became a reference in the local street-art scene and far abroad. His reputation led him to paint murals indoors and outdoors all over the world.\nParallel with his street art explorations, Hiroyasu continued to expand his formal knowledge and practice as well, leading him to a 2004 degree of Visual Art New Media.\nAs a regular sketcher and versatile illustrator, Hiroyasu is equally at ease in the studio and has exhibited his art in galleries worldwide.\nTWOONE is a hungry animal, his work is bold and dynamic. His lines are fluid and he embraces spontaneity. He uses materials that are representative of our modern times like plexi-glas and fluorescent paint colours. Often he takes photos of daily life scenes or simply sits and observes people on public areas, in an attempt to grasp the stranger\u2019s personality and impression to turn into a quick sketch. He later expands on these sketches with watercolor, markers, white-out, paint, and layers of paper. Hiroyasu says his work isn\u2019t particularly rooted in any one culture \u2013 it\u2019s neither Eastern or Western, but spacial.\nNowadays, Hiroyasu is working from Berlin. He continues to work in the fields of street art, but has also expanded his efforts to the other mediums of art like painting, sculptures and performances as well as sound art. This turns him into an outstanding rounded artist with specific personality and great potential. Definitely an artist to look out for leading contemporary innovative art in the coming decades.\nThe exhibition 'Artist in Residency - Antwerp' showcases the extra-ordinary journey of a talented contemporary artist combining Asian roots with Western experiences by transforming rough and colourful Street Art into refined Studio & Gallery compositions.\nFor his first appearance in Belgium he has chosen Antwerp to demonstrate his incredible set of skills and his great potential. TWOONE will reside 3 weeks in Antwerp over the March-April 2018 period and showcasing real life his painting skills during the weekend days at the BOAB Art Gallery (Kloosterstraat 152). Don\u2019t miss this opportunity to watch a recognised and valued artist at work. And who knows you might become the lucky owner of TWOONE\u2019s most recent work with an Antwerp twist.\nDavid Umemoto Monuments @ Modern Shapes Gallery",

        "raw_content": "If you were a rock bassist coming of age in the 1970s John Baldwin \u2013 aka John Paul Jones \u2013 was the standard you aspired to. Every other advert for bass players in the rock music classifieds cited him as a requirement for an audition! Jones, a multi-instrumentalist who enjoyed a successful career as a session musician, arranger, and producer previous to his high-profile tenure with Led Zeppelin, was heavily influenced by Motown icon James Jamerson. In the process, he taught bassists that they needed to go outside the confines of rock to be better at their instrument lest they be limited to a singular genre. Jones\u2019 soulful bass inventions provided a well-founded platform to augment Jimmy Page\u2019s ground breaking guitar work, Robert Plant\u2019s charismatic vocal artistry, and John Henry Bonham\u2019s propensity for poly-rhythms. Though the modest Mr. Jones garnered the least attention in a cooperative of bona fide stars \u2013 his mates could not have achieved their individual and collective greatness without him. To my ears, Jones\u2019 masterwork is Led Zeppelin II \u2013 though he shines on all the band\u2019s releases.\nThe most musically adventurous of the ex-Zeps (though Mr. Plant has distinguished himself in recent years), Jones\u2019 wide array of collaborative efforts include dazzling recordings and performances with Diamada Galas, Them Crooked Vultures, Lenny Kravitz, REM, Ben Harper, and Questlove, among many others.\nMany a modern metal bassist would be wise raise their instruments above their knees, study music theory and notation, and learn from hard rock\u2019s most accomplished bassist, John Paul Jones.",

        "title": "What to Do Directly After You Are Arrested | Law Offices of Kensley R. Barrett, ESQ",
        "raw_content": "What to Do Directly After You Are Arrested\nBeing arrested, whether it's for a DUI or any other crime, can be a stressful and scary situation. If you've never been arrested before, you likely have no idea what to expect. And no matter how many times it's happened to you, you still need to think carefully about what your next move will be. To help make this a bit of an easier time for you, we're sharing a few tips so you will know what to do directly after you are arrested.\nArrest Procedures\nUpon being arrested, you will be handcuffed and placed in the back of a police car for transport to the police station. Once you've arrived, an initial processing will take place where one of the officers will ask for basic information, such as your name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, and other personal details. You will then be fingerprinted, photographed, and processed for arraignment, which is when you will appear in front of a judge to fight your case. If a bail has been set, you will have to remain in jail while you wait for your trial date to arrive. You will only be able to leave if you make bail on your own or through the help of a bail bondsman.\nA police officer will search you and take any personal belongings that you have in your possession. Anything that is not deemed to be evidence in connection with your arrest, will be able to be retrieved later when you leave the jail. While at the station, the officers will also check to see if you have any warrants out for your arrest, unpaid tickets, or anything else on your record. The entire processing can take a while, so you will need to be patient. The best thing you can do in this situation is to just obey the officer's requests. Here's what else you will need to keep in mind:\nFirst, it's important to know what your rights are upon being arrested. The police are required to inform you of your right to remain silent and your right to obtain an attorney. More specifically, the words you will likely hear from the officer are as follows: \u201cYou have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you free of charge.\u201d These are known as the \u201cMiranda Rights.\u201d These rights need to be read to you by an arresting officer prior to being questioned and you need to be aware that you can exercise these rights if you choose to do so.\nThese rights essentially mean that you can choose not to talk to police until you have a lawyer present. Having a lawyer by your side while being questioned can help ease the stress of the situation. Your lawyer can also help you out by letting you know what you should and shouldn't say when speaking to the police. If you do decide to speak to the police without the aid of a lawyer, anything you say to them can be used against you in court. It's always a better decision to remain silent and contact an attorney immediately for assistance. Without an attorney to guide you, you may say something incriminating that could do more harm than good when your case goes to court.\nIn times like this, where you are likely scared and confused about what may happen, you might feel intimidated by the presence of the police. Many people become frightened and nervous and start speaking without thinking about what they're saying first. They often mistakenly believe that if they give a statement, the officer will let them leave or that the process will move along faster. This isn't going to happen and will likely do more harm than good in the end. Instead of giving in, stand up for your rights and don't feel pressured to talk to them without a lawyer if you aren't comfortable. Inform the police that you would like to contact your lawyer and wait until he or she is present before saying anything to anyone regarding your case.\nYou've probably seen it on television shows and movies hundreds of times, and yes, you do get to make a phone call after being arrested. This is the time to contact family to let them know of your arrest, seek out the help of a bail bondsman, or to contact an attorney to come to your rescue. If you are unable to afford an attorney, you can also request the help of a public defender.\nDo keep in mind that phone calls made from the police station are likely recorded. Information that is given over the phone or statements the police overhear you making while on your call can be used against you. They can even use information they overhear you telling other prisoners in the jail. Be careful of what you say while in police custody to minimize the impact it could have on you later.\nFinally, you will need to seek legal representation if you hope to stand a chance at getting the charges dropped or, at the very least, lowered. Do It can be very tough to represent yourself in the courtroom. You should have an experienced, qualified lawyer by your side to fight for your rights and to defend you until the very end. You stand a much better chance of getting a positive result in the court if you have a great attorney with you.\nBefore speaking to police or making any decisions on your own, please contact a lawyer. Not only can a lawyer help you fight your case, but having someone to represent you will give you the peace of mind you need to get through what is definitely a very taxing time.",

        "raw_content": "- Bayer Plans IPO for Covestro\nBayer Plans IPO for Covestro\nBayer AG, Leverkusen, Germany, has taken the decision to proceed with an Initial Public Offering (IPO) of Covestro AG, a polymers company formerly known as Bayer MaterialScience. Covestro will seek a listing in the regulated market segment (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.\nThe offering will consist solely of new shares issued by Covestro by way of a capital increase. They will be offered publicly in Germany and Luxembourg to private and institutional investors. Outside of these countries, shares will be offered by way of private placements. Subject to capital market conditions, Covestro\u2019s IPO is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2015.\nCovestro intends to use the proceeds from the IPO primarily to repay intercompany debt to Bayer and in this way to establish its target capital structure. With net debt including pension liabilities at 2.5 to 3.0 times adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for fiscal 2015, Covestro is seeking an investment-grade credit rating.\nDr. Marijn Dekkers, CEO of Bayer AG, said: \u201cWe have been evaluating the optimal way for the separation of the MaterialScience business and believe that an IPO delivers clear benefits for both Bayer and Covestro and their stakeholders. This transaction will allow both businesses to pursue their strategic goals.\u201d\nCovestro is aiming for mid-term growth of its net sales and adjusted EBITDA. According to the Combined Financial Statements, the company achieved net sales of EUR 11.761 billion and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 1.161 billion in fiscal 2014. Its financial outlook is driven by increasing utilization of its asset base and a disciplined cost focus. The anticipated growth in demand is expected to result in higher utilization of recently expanded capacities. A limited need for new asset investment should further support growth in free cash flow. In addition, Covestro plans to align overall costs with best-in-class chemical industry benchmarks. This together with targeted asset optimization is expected to generate total gross savings of around EUR 420 million by 2019.",

Speech. Press. Assembly. Petition.\nThese are the five freedoms the First Amendment protects. These freedoms are integral to our democracy and undergird the foundation of the United States.\nAmericans must embrace and protect these freedoms at all costs \u2013 regardless of whether our religious beliefs differ from our neighbors or we find certain speech offensive.\nYet to protect these freedoms, Americans must know what they are.\nIn the 2018 State of the First Amendment Survey, conducted by the First Amendment Center of the Freedom Forum Institute in partnership with Fors Marsh Group, only one respondent among the 1,009 surveyed could name all five freedoms that make up the First Amendment.\nMore than a third couldn\u2019t name even one freedom; another third could name only one.\nThat\u2019s a bit disconcerting considering we exercise these freedoms on a daily basis.\nThere is good news, however: the survey revealed 77% of Americans are supportive of the First Amendment and the freedoms it guarantees.\nIf that seems like a disconnect, it is: Americans generally know the significance of the First Amendment while they can\u2019t be bothered with the details.\nWell, friends, it\u2019s time we bother with the details.\nTaking the First Amendment and its protections for granted is dangerous. Our country not only needs, but deserves, a free press that works to expose wrongdoing and holds public officials accountable. Americans also deserve spirited debate on the issues of our day; all people should have the freedom to express themselves.\nAmericans have long availed themselves of the First Amendment right to peaceably assemble \u2013 from Black Lives Matter protests and the Women\u2019s March, to Unite the Right and We the People.

Hundreds of thousands of citizens successfully petitioned to have a constitutional amendment placed on the ballot that would change the way our legislative districts are drawn. The same can be said for the petition to put the legalization of recreational marijuana to the voters.\nAmericans rely on the principles of the First Amendment daily \u2013 in our freedom to worship how we choose; the freedom to speak our minds; the freedom to join with others in protest.\nThese five freedoms should never be taken for granted.

Here's a post from hikers that are at Kennedy Meadows in mid-March: http://thetravelingmandolin.blogspot.com/2015/03/pct-2014-day-37.html\nVirginia Adams remarked that they had more snow storms by far when she was younger. California and the West in some really difficult conditions with no end in sight. Will have huge effects on the nation. Something like this moved the Anasazi to the rivers. Los Vegas may not be habitable by the number of people there now in just a few years as they are losing the last of Lake Mead. Very serious situation.\nI was in Yosemite this week. Temperatures in the 70s every day. It drizzled enough in the Valley to make the roads near Curry Village look wet one day. Made for good photo weather, but pretty scary for us and our environment. Staff people told us that there was basically no snow in the Valley all winter, and only a few real rains.\nblueribbontea\nAnd the drought may be spreading into the Pacific Northwest. Snow pack next to nothing here.\n\"Next to nothing\" is no exaggeration.\nIndeed, the drought has officially arrived in Washington state, if the Governor's March 13th declaration means anything:\nhttp://www.ecy.wa.gov/drought/\nWhat's unique is that Washington actually defines \"drought\" as meeting two conditions:\nAn area has to be experiencing or projected to experience a water supply that is below 75 percent of normal, and\nWater users within those areas will likely incur undue hardships as a result of the shortage.\nNo matter the definition, Washington, Oregon, and California share in the small-snowpack suffering.\nI'm more worried about the inevitable forest fires. There will still be plenty of drinking water in the higher Sierra if one plans an intelligent trip. Fortunately, last\nyear I opted for Wyoming instead, right when quite a bit of the Sierra was enveloped in smoke. I don't know where \"Plan B\" will be this summer, but there will be an option or two or three, just in case.\nIf the Spring rains stay away there will less grass to burn...\nVaughn ... talk about drought wacko happenings... This week a black bear wandered into Tracy! For those of you who don't know where that is, it's a burb on the\nwest side of the Central Valley, out in hot flat farm country... a long long ways from ordinary bear habitat.",

        "raw_content": "Beware of a New Tax on No Deposit Bonuses\n20th of July 2017 Author: Natalie Stephanopoulos\nBig things are happening in the world of online gaming, and it may mean a serious disadvantage for players. The Remote Gaming Duty has been putting the final touches on new taxation reforms, which will directly affect freeplays and no deposit bonuses offered by all online gambling sites. The changes were originally scheduled to go into effect on August 1st, but have since been delayed by the General Election until further notice.\nDon't get too excited. The delay is not an indication that the changes will fall by the wayside. In fact, arrangements have already been made so that any accumulated taxes on such freeplays or bonuses from August 1st and beyond, will simply be backdated, and become valid once the reforms have officially been passed.\nLet's backtrack a little bit. You're probably wondering exactly what this means for you as a player. In a nutshell, under the reforms, the first time in which a freeplay bonus has been put into use by a player, it is deemed taxable, along with any wins accrued, much like real cash play. As a result of this new tax coming into play, you can expect to see a decreased offering of no deposit bonuses from your favorite online bingo sites and casinos, and gaming developer, Cozy Games, has already publicly locked in to this method of action.\nIf you're a fan of Cozy Games sites, then you're probably used to starting off your gaming experience with a no deposit bonus. In light of the new tax, the brand will be introducing a free bingo offer, with no deposit required, and exclusive bingo bonuses awarded as prizes.\nLBB Shortlisted for iGB Affiliate Awards 2018",

        "title": "Why sports teams should avoid relying on consent to comply with GDPR",
        "raw_content": "Why sports teams should avoid relying on consent to comply with GDPR\nPublished 15 August 2018 | Authored by: Katie Russell\nIn the run-up to 25 May 2018, or \"GDPR day\", many organisations made huge changes to the way they process \u201cpersonal data\u201d. However, due to blind spots in guidance available (both form the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) and other sources), there remains uncertainty around what organisations must do to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation1 (GDPR).\nBy way of initial background, \u201cpersonal data\u201d means \u201cany information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person\u201d2. \"Special category\" data (previously called \"sensitive personal data\"), which attracts heightened protection under GDPR, includes: data revealing a person\u2019s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation or trade union membership3. Data concerning an individual\u2019s health will also be classed as special category. Sports clubs are in a unique position in an employment context as they are likely to regularly process health information relating to their players, including medical histories, medication, allergies, injuries and potentially medical information which may or may not be not be specific to the sport itself. Great care is therefore needed to keep the information safe.\nOne major area where sports clubs and organisations could face particular difficulties is where they have relied on consent as a basis for processing data under GDPR, as it may not be the easy fix they thought it was. Accordingly, this article examines why it is essential that organisations identify a legal basis for processing personal data and avoid the trap of falling into reliance on consent. Specifically, it looks at:\nThe new obligations on employers when processing employees\u2019 personal data\nWhat the \"big problem\" is with relying on consent\nWhat employers should be doing now\nPractical guidance going forward\nThe article assumes that readers have a basic knowledge of GDPR. For readers wanting an introduction to the topic, please see here4.\nMany professional sports people play for and are paid by their clubs. Most are likely to be employees of their clubs, in the same way as permanent coaches, administrators and management teams.\nGDPR now sets a much higher threshold in order for consent to be valid in that where consent is obtained it must be freely given and can be withdrawn at any time. Given the nature of the employment relationship, and the likely imbalance of power between employer and employee, the ICO has stated that consent in an employment context will not normally be freely given and therefore will not be valid.5 That is not to say that there are no situations where consent may be freely given and therefore be valid, but employers must be confident that this is the case. The ICO has published guidance available here which offers some examples of such situations.6\nInstead, in order to ensure compliance with GDPR, employers tend to rely on other available legal bases for processing employee data such as the fulfilment of the employment contract (for example, they will process employees\u2019 bank details to pay them) or their own legitimate interests. Employers need to process personal data to manage the employment relationship, deal with performance and disciplinary issues, and maintain a safe working environment. In all likelihood, employers\u2019 practices will not change, albeit systems should be reviewed to ensure that employee personal data is only being used for the proper purposes, and that access to information is restricted in accordance with those purposes.\nHowever, the picture is murkier when we consider data classed as falling within a \"special category\", not least because employers are not permitted to rely on their own legitimate interests as a legal basis for processing special category data.7 The reason behind this is that when processing \"special categories\" of personal data, the GDPR allows far narrower bases for doing so because of the nature of the information and the greater risk of damage caused by any breach.\nConsent \u2013 what\u2019s the big problem?\nPrior to 25 May, it was easy to fall into the trap of thinking consent was a quick fix to comply with GDPR. A large number of \"GPDR advisors\" emerged from the woodwork professing to be experts in data-protection law and, in the author\u2019s experience, taking the (incorrect) view that consent would be sufficient. This was accompanied by a huge volume of guidance which was unclear or misleading. The result - organisations were festooned with questionable GDPR advice.\nIn a panic to have something in place, many organisations, particularly smaller clubs with fewer resources, may have defaulted to taking a consent-based approach.\nHowever, where an organisation needs to use data (and in reality would do so even if consent wasn\u2019t given or was withdrawn) then it is likely to be inappropriate and logistically problematic to seek to rely on employees\u2019 consent.\nThere are three main reasons why this approach should normally be avoided:\nICO guidance states that consent is not likely to be valid where there is an imbalance of power. The ICO also explains that it is not appropriate to seek consent for processing if the reality is that should consent be withheld or withdrawn, the employer would then continue with processing relying on another legal basis as a \u201cback-up\u201d. The consent that you think you have may not really exist;\nConsent can be withdrawn at any time so you are left on shaky ground if consent is withdrawn or withheld but you still need to process data; and\nYou are not allowed to subject someone to a detriment because they do not consent to processing. Where an individual is subjected to a detriment as a result of withholding or withdrawing consent, this in itself demonstrates that the consent could not have been freely given and is therefore not valid.\nEmployers must have certain types of information, particularly special categories of data, in order to fulfil their role. Holding and processing this information is required to, for example, ensure fitness to play or compete, to uphold the rules of the relevant sport and to comply with anti-doping rules or guidance.\nTaking this to a heightened level, imagine a situation where the processing of Lance Armstrong\u2019s personal data relied on his consent. Armstrong may well have undergone a number of drugs tests, but he would have had a legal ground to refuse or withdraw his consent at any time which would prevent this information from being processed. The organisation processing this data would then be in an absurd position where they knew he was a drugs cheat but may be in breach of data privacy rules if it is disclosed. The Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) sets out the UK\u2019s derogations and exceptions from GDPR and contains special rules permitting the processing of data for anti-doping purposes. However, these rules will only help if you have told individuals that you will be relying on that basis for processing data (if you have told individuals you will only process with their consent, then you may find that they are quick to withdraw that consent if the processing is likely to catch them out for using a banned substance). Provided that the legal basis for processing and storing information is communicated to individuals in a tailored privacy notice, organisations can avoid such situations.\nIf consent is withdrawn, you cannot easily substitute another legal basis in its place \u2013 as organisations should have been clear from the outset about their basis for processing. If you have picked consent then you may find yourself at the mercy of the person giving that consent. If new legal bases for processing personal data are selected to replace consent, it is possible that this could result in a complaint being made to the ICO which could well be upheld.\nFor organisations which haven\u2019t changed the way they process personal data, it would be worth engaging proactively with GDPR and structuring their privacy policies around their needs and requirements.\nThere are three legal bases, contained in the DPA, that organisations must be alive to which will enable them to process special categories of personal data in a sporting context:\nwhere the individual is an employee, in order to calculate sick pay or properly manage sickness absence or other occupational health issues relating to the employment;\nfor the purposes of taking measures designed to eliminate doping which are undertaken by or under the responsibility of a body or association that is responsible for eliminating doping in a sport, at a sporting event or in sport generally; or\nwhere necessary for the purposes of taking measures designed to protect the integrity of a sport or a sporting event.\nEach of the above legal bases for processing set out in statute represent exemptions to the normal processing rules. On its face, this may appear to be straightforward: if a player is accused of doping or not adhering to the rules of the sport, then it is likely to be justifiable to gather medical information relevant to that doping accusation, or to otherwise gather personal data relevant to an alleged rule breach. It is also likely to be justifiable to transfer this personal data to the sport\u2019s governing body or adjudication panel, provided that the possibility of such a transfer is set out clearly in a Privacy Notice provided to the individual (and provided that the governing body/panel\u2019s use of such data is subject to appropriate safeguarding measures).\nNot all of the medical data which clubs gather will necessarily be covered by the above legal bases. This will depend on the purpose(s) it will be used for. For example, a professional may be seen by the team doctor for a consultation and may disclose information relevant to the well-being of the wider team (for example a contagious infection).\nIn professional sport context, there may be strong personal or commercial reasons why an individual may not wish certain health information to be shared with the club (for example details of a hidden injury that may affect their future prospects or commercial value). Complex issues of privacy and confidentiality and duty of care issues come into play as between a player, their club and the team doctor. Clubs should be open at the outset about the role the doctor plays in treating or advising the individual, and if it is intended that their personal medical data will be shared (for example where necessary for the wellbeing of the team). Medical staff will of course be bound by their own professional obligations. Although it can be challenging to capture these complexities clubs/organisations should try to tailor their Privacy Notices to cover all expected circumstances. GDPR is very clear about what information should be included in a privacy notice8 but these should be drafted on a case-by-case basis.\nAnother point to remember is that where a medical practitioner has responsibility for ongoing treatment and care, rather than treating the employee for a specific injury or one-off issue, the Access to Medical Records Act 1988 will require individual consent to release any medical records to the employer. Therefore, a lot rides on the scope of the relationship.\nOnly where the information is directly relevant to the protection of the integrity of the sport, to ensure anti-doping, or where necessary for the management of employee health in the employment context, will clubs have a legal basis for processing \"special category\" data, unless one of the other specific exceptions contained in GDPR applies such as for the defence of legal claims.\nGDPR introduced harsh penalties for non-compliance. Fines are capped at the greater of \u20ac10m or 2% of an organisation\u2019s global turnover for minor breaches; and the greater of \u20ac20m or 4% of global turnover for more serious breaches.\nAffected individuals can claim compensation where they have suffered damages. For example, if an individual suffers significant reputational damage as a result of a data breach, this could undermine a lucrative sponsorship deal. Many athletes rely on an unblemished image, brand and reputation in order to achieve high value deals. Large players in this industry will therefore likely insist on tightly worded \"get-out\" clauses in the event that their athletes\u2019 reputations are ever tarnished. In circumstances like these, should damage occur by way of a personal data breach, the perpetrator would likely face a substantial damages claim.\nMany sporting organisations are also heavily reliant on public funding. Organisations are often required to show compliance with regulations (including data protection law) to secure funding. Therefore, it is important that data privacy is taken seriously, and that systems and policies are tailored to the organisation.\nClubs should be taking steps to ensure data processing is compliant with GDPR. If a consent-based approach has been adopted, this should be reviewed and advice taken on changing this at the earliest opportunity. The fundamental principles of GDPR, outlined above, should be at the forefront of how clubs handle any data they store and process.\nEmployment contracts should also be reviewed and updated to take account of the new legislation. Insofar as possible, employers should remove any reference to employee consent from all employment contracts. As noted above, the ICO have explained that they do not consider it appropriate to seek consent from employees in order to process data if the reality is that processing would continue if consent was withheld or withdrawn. Including consent in employment contracts does not act as a \"belt and braces\" approach as it did under the Data Protection Act 1998. Instead, it creates confusion over the legal basis for processing, and suggests that the primary basis is consent. Another legal basis can only be relied upon if it has been properly communicated in accordance with GDPR. As such, by trying to rely on consent while also having a back-up, the employer could find that they are instead limiting themselves to consent as the basis for processing when in fact there are more appropriate basis that should have been relied upon and communicated to the employee.

        "raw_content": "This Heart Warming Story about a Hungry Mom at McDonalds Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity\nHome/Inspirational, Personal Growth, Self-Improvement/This Heart Warming Story about a Hungry Mom at McDonalds Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity\nThere is an inspiring trend emerging in coffee shops and cafes across the country, and it is restoring my faith in humanity.\nPaying it forward is a new idea that has developed in cafes around the world, and its concept is very simple.\nYou simply pay for the next person\u2019s food or drink so that they get a free meal or drink. In some cafes the concept of paying it forward has evolved into a scheme to help the homeless, offering free warm meals, drinks, and some offer schemes for jobs and skills. Schemes such as this have made a huge difference in helping the homeless get off the streets and develop skills, get jobs and homes, and ultimately help to lower the numbers of people living homelessly.\nSocial Bite Sandwich Shop in Edinburgh is a key example of one of these inspirational shops. 1 in 4 members of the staff were formally homeless, offering suspended coffees and sandwiches, which those less fortunate can come in and claim. In Philadelphia, Rosa\u2019s Fresh Pizza has walls decorated in post-it notes symbolizing free pizza slices for those who cannot afford to buy one.\nThe concept was born in Italy with \u2018suspended coffees\u2019 and has grown into a worldwide phenomenon that just goes to show how kind and caring we humans can be.\nIt\u2019s not just cafes and coffee shops, however, there are stories all over the Internet of men and women buying food for those who can\u2019t afford it, showing kindness to people in their hour of need. One example of this is a Facebook status that went viral across the Internet.\nA man bought a McDonald\u2019s meal for a woman, who could only afford to feed her son, and went to great lengths not to let her know who did it. What\u2019s even more heartwarming about this story is the note he wrote her with the words:\n\u201cKeep your head up and keep pushing forward. You can. You will.\u201d\nIt is these small acts of kindness that remind us of what is important in life and make us have faith in humanity. The men and women in our society that can\u2019t afford the things we can need love too; they need kindness and motivation, just as we all do.\nThe pay it forward phenomenon has proven that we are all capable of great acts of kindness, even if they seem small. What\u2019s small to you can be huge to someone else.\nHere is the note. Read it and it will surely restore your faith in humanity too!\nH/T: LifeHack.org\nBy Francesca F.|2018-04-11T16:39:34+00:00July 19th, 2016|Categories: Inspirational, Personal Growth, Self-Improvement|Tags: humans, inspiration, kindness, social media, true story|118 Comments\nRoxy Gri July 20, 2016 at 11:53 am - Reply\npretty sure the Suspended Coffee originated in Canada ,I have been doing this for years .I dont believe a single day should go by without Paying It Forward even if its just a simple smile or holding the door for someone .

However, there is a much more important lesson to be learned as well. We should teach our children how to choose a mate. Our families are in shambles because people fall in heat, fall in crush, fall in infatuation. Love is not about looks, or sex, or money, or party-time. Love is about consistency, honor, dependability, loyalty, hard work, truth, and freindship. You can sweep someone off their feet with \u201cgame\u201d but that is not sustainable. A lifelong mate is not found at a club, in a bar, grinding groins on a dance floor, or usually in a quick hook up. If we taught our children this they could choose better and then their kids would not be shuttled back and forth. They would not feel the pain. They would not suffer the insecurity.\nErin Haynes July 21, 2016 at 6:26 pm - Reply\nI got married at 26. Had children at 30. 13 years and 2 children later my husband left because he didn\u2019t want to be a father anymore. He took off with a childless woman. I could not pay the mortgage on my own salary. He said he couldn\u2019t send money because he had to pay for his new beach house. I paid for food and electricity. 18 months later the court ordered child support. He still didn\u2019t pay. 6 more months and his wages are now getting garnished. It is not always the fault of the mother. There are many deadbeat fathers out there.\nTuri Chic July 21, 2016 at 11:43 pm - Reply\nErin Mooney Vanlandingham I don\u2019t think he was pointing fingers only at moms. It\u2019s for everyone who chooses to disregard that honor, dependability and loyalty. Your ex chose to not hold up his end and should have thought better than to put you through that as someone he chose to be his wife. Shame on him and I wish you the best!\nTuri Chic yes, exactly. Thank you.\nMae Lou April 6, 2017 at 8:32 am - Reply\nI think we need to teach our children how to survive and take care of themselves before they get hooked up with the mate and the baby. So, if they were ever in theur own becayse the relationship dud motvwork, they could fend for themselves and their child.\nToshia Martin April 6, 2017 at 8:09 pm - Reply\nIt is difficult for mothers always. I earned my degree but when my children were born my husband wanted me to stay home with them. I too did not want them raised by a stranger.\nThen when he went through some midlife crisis he hooked up with a 19 year old and I had been out of work for far too long. My resume was crap. He had no interest in paying child suppport.\nMothers are always left holding the bag.\nEd Burley July 21, 2016 at 2:53 pm - Reply\nMany single moms are those who thought they were \u201cdoing the right thing\u201d by marrying the baby\u2019s father. This is due to societal pressure to \u201ckeep the baby and get married.\u201d This is not always the best advice.\nJacob Reece Ricciardi April 8, 2017 at 11:58 am - Reply\ni hate people that cant just do a good thing without letting the world know they about it. hes fishing for likes, i wouldn\u2019t be surprised if he just made the story up, sounds made up, probably concocted it while on his 4th refill.\nBrenda Lee April 8, 2017 at 12:17 pm - Reply\nThe balance wasn\u2019t the balance of her account it was the balance of her bill.

They never used the word \u201caccount\u201d so idk why you would think \u201cbalance\u201d and \u201caccount\u201d are the same thing.\nJacob Reece Ricciardi April 8, 2017 at 12:25 pm - Reply\nbrenda that is still private, how the hell would he know what she was owing, its made up, and if it isn\u2019t he\u2019s a dick for doing something just to get likes and recognition\nMicheal Wilson April 8, 2017 at 1:14 pm - Reply\nif you are one cent short it will decline .. if you are going to try and get the sun to shine out of ya ass , try being a little bit more intelligent with the back end\nBrenda Lee April 8, 2017 at 7:50 pm - Reply\nWhat are you talking about Jacob Reece Ricciardi??? You\u2019ve never stood behind someone in a line at a cash register and saw how much money they spent? Or if they used a card or cash? What your total bill is at a cash register is NOT private information. Smh.\nThe guy didn\u2019t claim (or imply) to give explicit details like exactly what the words exchanged were. We don\u2019t know if she used a gift card or maybe she knew she only had $5 or whatever so they charged the card $5 and she still needed to go to the car and get change.\nMicheal WilsonA gift card doesn\u2019t decline and you can charge specific amounts ie what you know the balance is. So there\u2019s no need for you to try and be a jerk just because you\u2019re narrow minded and refuse to see that there are ways that you can use a \u201ccard\u201d (because we weren\u2019t given more details) to pay for something and still owe a balance. You guys are reading shit in the article and in my post that aren\u2019t there. But you wanna talk about my intelligence? that really is laughable!!.\nVeronica Hind April 8, 2017 at 10:41 pm - Reply\nThat\u2019s how I interpreted the story. I do however, know how to subtract, thank you. \u2018Balance\u2019 can still refer to bank balance, not just \u2018amount owing\u2019 \u2013 which is how its phrased commonly here.\n\u201cthe teen tells her her card has a balance of 37cents\u2026\u201d Sounds like she\u2019s referring to a bank card to me?\nSamantha Stephens April 9, 2017 at 3:08 am - Reply\nWhat if the card she was using was a gift card? The cashier would most certainly be able to tell her any remaining balance left on it.\nJacob Reece Ricciardi April 9, 2017 at 3:11 am - Reply\nbut he wasn\u2019t behind her, he says he was on his third refill, the story is bullshit, simple as that.\nAmanda Huculak April 9, 2017 at 11:29 am - Reply\nJacob Reece Ricciardi \u2013 could the drink machines be anywhere near the registers in a fast food restaurant?\nVeronica Hind \u2026 you left an important word out of that quote, along with some others. You can\u2019t quote something then leave words out just so it fits your agenda or interpretation\n\u201cThe teen at the counter tells her her card LEFT a balance of 37 cents.\u201d In other words she owes 37 cents, which is why \u201cShe and the boy walk to her car where she digs and finds the change.\u201d Does that still sound like a bank card to You? It sure doesn\u2019t sound like a bank card to me because as other have pointed out a bank card would have been declined -that is unless she said to only charge $X or if she used a gift card which means the register would have taken what was left on the card and she would be responsible for the remaining balance of 37 cents. Nice try though Veronica Hind, nice try!!\nOmg Amanda Huculak does that mean you\u2019ve actually been INSIDE a McDonald\u2019s before??!!! Who would have thought that the soda machine could possiably be in ear shot of the register?? I guess just you and me\nJacob Reece Ricciardi \u2013 I\u2019m NOT saying the story was true I NEVER did. My initial reply on your comment was directed towards Veronica Hind which should have been pretty clear.\nBut the guy also never specified what size his soda was, 4 refills on a small soda is feasible but still a bit ridiculous. Maybe you weren\u2019t aware but McDonalds has free WiFi so he could have been hanging out playing Pokemon Go for all we know. However I have seen people, mostly elderly hang out at McDonald\u2019s by themselves for long periods of time. How did I see this? Well when you take small children, especially more than one, to McDonalds and let them eat inside (idk why this is so important to them) it feels like it takes an eternity to get them to eat so you can leave. Children are very easily distracted by the happy meal toy, the box (if they\u2019re using them), or just the plain fact they are inside a McDonald\u2019s, you end up being there a lot longer than if they were adults or even teens. When someone (an adult) is already sitting down with their coffee (or their food) when you walk in the door and are still sitting there when you go to leave that means they\u2019re hanging out in McDonald\u2019s for whatever reason. Hence drinking 4 sodas that hopefully were 32oz sodas.\nThat DOES NOT make the story real, just feasible. Just for shots and giggles let me reiterate that I never suggested other wise, I merely was trying to explain to Verionica that the cashier was not announcing the balance in her bank account, he was referring to the balance due on her tab. Since this was a Facebook post by someone most likely just trying to get 5 minutes of fame, he worded it a little funny. But she, you, and Micheal Wilson have all been adding words or ideas/implications to the story or to my comments. Veronica has also been removing words to make the story fit her narrative. Not one single person has attempted to argue that this story was 100% true, I\u2019ve only said it is possiable. I\u2019ve had someone give me a gift card while eating with my then toddler in a McDonald\u2019s once so it\u2019s not completely unheard of for people to just be nice.\nAmanda Huculak April 9, 2017 at 4:23 pm - Reply\nTHANK YOU, Brenda Lee. And may I add that, yes, I have been inside of a McDonald\u2019s before. I believe that most of the people who make snide, \u201cOh, yukky McDonald\u2019s\u201d posts have as well, yet it gives them some sort of falsly superiour feeling to put others down for resorting to eating to this kind of garbage. I mean, it\u2019s okay to eat junk sometimes. Some people will call it a treat or a cheat day. It\u2019s okay to admit that you feed your kids McDonald\u2019s on occasion as well. What\u2019s not okay is to judge others who do.\nJacob Reece Ricciardi April 10, 2017 at 12:34 am - Reply\ngees, how lonely must you be, who cares, get a life will ya\nand he says he\u2019s sitting down drinking sprite, he\u2019s not refilling his cup so it doesn\u2019t matter where the soda machine is, what does the position of the soda machine have to do with anything?, learn how to read.\nLillian Kline April 11, 2017 at 12:38 am - Reply\nI\u2019ve been to a McDonalds with seats almost right next to the checkout. Doesn\u2019t matter if he was refilling or sitting, the story is still plausible.\nok, sure the story is plausible , he\u2019s still a dick though.\nSen Ware April 8, 2017 at 11:59 am - Reply\nA shitty parent/ex is never going to restore faith in anything. Teach your children about life including relationships. It isn\u2019t happy or funny most of the time but it could spare them this mess.\nTiffany Pang April 8, 2017 at 12:05 pm - Reply\nIs it so hard for people to feel good after reading a story (spam or otherwise) that they have to bash it and call it fake? Paying it forward does happen, and in general it is a positive experience. (wouldn\u2019t you be happy if someone paid for something for you?)\nI have been both the payer and payee of Paying it Forward situations. It is a good thing that has always left me feeling appreciative and happy.\nI find it interesting that people will spend an insane amount of money to see a movie that is completely fictional, and walk away happy from seeing it. But one story on Facebook that may or may not be true and those same people get their panties in a bunch.\nIt takes all kinds, I guess.\nAttila Tak\u00e1cs April 8, 2017 at 12:15 pm - Reply\nI agree with you and I have been \u201cpaying forward\u201d many times already. This is exactly why I am sensitive about this. Don\u2019t get me wrong\u2019 I\u2019d love this story to be true, but I have doubts now. Credibility is very important to me.\nI understand that\u2026I am a stickler when it comes to credibility myself.\nBut I guess I don\u2019t understand how a story that has no effect on my life, other than giving me something to smile about, can effect me negatively whether it is fake or not. If the story is a fabrication, then it is no more harmful than reading a fairy tale. And if it is true, then not only did it make me smile, but that means that a woman and her son had some good luck come their way.\nBut anyway, it just saddened me that so many people had such negative things to say about a simple, little story.\nIt was a Facebook post so you never can know if it was true but there\u2019s no reason to think it wasn\u2019t. I would have done the same thing he did.\nPersonally the mind unleashed rarely posts stories that I would consider credible by academic standards.\nSad but true, Brenda Lee. I would be willing to bet thatat least 75% of Facebook posts are \u201cfake.\u201d\nI totally would have done what he did too, especially because I am a woman and a mother. It would bother me to not help another mother and her child, especially if I had the means to help her.\nI agree about the questionable credibility of the mind unleashed. In fact, I swear I unfollowed them, but must not have done it right cuz I still get their posts. Lol\nWhen my son was little I worked at a Dunkin Donuts. This retired cop would come in on the weekends with his his grandson who was like 3 or 4, if it wasn\u2019t real busy I would take the kid behind the counter to get a closer look and let him point out what he wanted.\nAnyway one afternoon I took my son to McDonald\u2019s as a special treat for something, can\u2019t remember what. That same cop came in while we were eating and after he ordered his food he came over and slipped a gift card on the table.\nTiffany Pang See, that\u2019s the thing: if it was presented as a fictional story, a fairy tale as you put it, I would be fine with it. But it has been presented as a real life story. And that makes all the difference. I really don\u2019t want to over-explain myself here..\nAmanda Huculak April 8, 2017 at 12:38 pm - Reply\nCredibility has very little to do with the purpose of this story.\nNo worries, Attila Tak\u00e1cs, no explanations desired or required.

I can respect that.\nTiffany Pang April 8, 2017 at 1:03 pm - Reply\nOmg Brenda Lee\u2026I thought the same thing about the ex being a dick!! Lol Anyone who had to deal with him would be highly deserving of a meal and some kind words! Lol\nAalmost 2 years ago, my brother was almost killed when a car slammed into him at 70mph when he was working. My brother came so close to dying that we were planning what his last hour would be like (turning off machines, pain management so he could pass comfortably, etc.) He had so many injuries, the worst being that he lost both of his legs.\nMy brother was in the ICU for about 2 months. My mom, my 3.5 month old son, and I literally camped out in the waiting room, only leaving for a few hours to get clothes and essentials. People noticed us, and that we were always there. Most of them also knew why we were there.\nWe had people bringing us food, drinks, and toiletries. People who never even knew my brother came to pray for him. Staff members and other families would come and talk to us, and lent an ear, a shoulder, or a hug. It all was so nice and so what we needed at the time.\nThe best thing that happened was when an EKG Tech came and sat with us. He explained that he and his coworker has seen us there, and they were touched by our story. So the took the overtime pay they had and got us a gift card for the little coffee stand in the hospital. We were so shocked that people who we never met before would care enough to take their hard earned money and get us something. It helped us keep our heads up, believe that my brother would live. It meant the world to us, a ray of light in a very dark, chaotic situation for my family and I.\nI totally agree, Amanda Huculak.

Aside from that little tidbit, sure, who gives a shit what anyone else does with their money and charity. If ya got it, flaunt it.\nThere\u2019s a group of men that often stand at the intersection of a highway I pass every single week day to pick my husband up for lunch. They raise money for ex cons and drug addicts trying to turn their lives around. And every single time they\u2019re there, I donate to their cause. Most people don\u2019t even bother opening their windows to say no thank you/not interested \u2013 it disgusts me. Any time I see someone on the street asking for help, I offer them food/money \u2013 which ever I have available at the moment. Any time. If I have a chance to pull over and talk to them, I do that too. I ask what they need or could use, and then I do what I can to provide something useful to them. There was a small group of addicts living under a bridge near where I live. Two ladies and a man. Lived in a cardboard box. I always stopped to give them an offering as well. I do not discriminate. I hate seeing people hurt, lost, confused, suffering, struggling. I know sometimes the money I give away just goes right back into feeding someone\u2019s habit, but I want to help. Even if that means helping them feel comfortable or unaware for a moment more. But that\u2019s because I\u2019ve lived through similar experiences throughout my life, in one way or another. I know what it is to be in a position of desperation. But after having kids, I got myself out and do everything possible to ensure none of us have to ever see anything like that for ourselves again. And I teach my children to be the same way \u2013 to give and give and give. They\u2019ve seen me stop and help families. They\u2019ve seen my cry in the process because seeing kids on the street reminds me so much of my childhood and those scary, stressful, no money having moments I\u2019d never wish for any other child. I want them to understand how important it is to have compassion for others in need. I want them to understand that our true worth as humans, is entirely measured by the good deeds we deliver.\nBut this is social media. Everyone here has got a facade. I\u2019ve found the more miserable people are with their lives, the more they like to judge and condemn and critique. Everything is seen through a negative lens.\nThe woman clearly had a gift card to use, from McDonald\u2019s, to feed her child. It\u2019s obvious, as the cashier told her she was short $.23 when she depleted it. Not sure how so many people have missed this.\nAside from that, I appreciate your comment. Thank you for doing all that you do to help others.\nSher E. Amore April 8, 2017 at 12:47 pm - Reply\nI for one, love to hear about people doing acts of kindness.

Apparently it didn\u2019t take me long. Paying it forward doesn\u2019t have to have monetary value. Food from your garden, clothes sown, meat from your hunt, wood from your forest. There are thousands of ways to pay it forward without money. Money might be a man made invention, but the true and pure human condition is not. How do you think ancient and some modern but non modernized civilizations survive? Money has been the death of that ideology in our modern societies. Because money has created wants and wants have created greed. We have lost the ability to see what we need. Elders used to teach their young these lessons of community, to pay it forward so the next generation would survive to teach the next. Money has nothing to do with it, when you want to do a good deed you do, money be damned. Either you have empathy or you don\u2019t.

Personally I don\u2019t think McDonald\u2019s is the best place for a pick up/drop off location of children for visitations. You can\u2019t bring a small child into McDonald\u2019s then tell them they aren\u2019t getting anything without a huge meltdown -so it\u2019s not a good idea, not that you literally can\u2019t do it. But I do understand the need for a public location that meets somewhere in the middle for visitation pick up/drop off when the parents can\u2019t get along. Or when one is a total d-bag like the one portrayed in the story.\nThey whole \u201clook at me! look at me! look at me!\u201d of social media is outta control. I can see how/why someone who does a good deed that makes them feel good might want to share that story with others -hopefully to mostly inspire them to also do a good deed every now and again. Since the guys picture, name, and date/location have all been blocked out he obviously didn\u2019t give permission for the story to be told, maybe because he agrees with our opinion that doing a good deed then trying to get 15 minutes of fame from it ruins the good deed or (more likely lol) they just couldn\u2019t get a hold of him to get permission or maybe he didn\u2019t want all the hate mail he\u2019d get of he was identified lol. There\u2019s no way for us know.\nIt would be better in the long run to keep the car because without a car you can\u2019t go long distances. What if she was offered a job at a place a few miles away, but it\u2019d take her 4 hours to get there because she has to walk (possibly in the dark)? Then she can\u2019t take the job because she doesn\u2019t have the transport. She obviously doesn\u2019t have a well-paying job, so she can\u2019t just up and buy a new car to get her there. Basically, without a car, she\u2019s worse off than before.\nAnd before you start shouting that she could catch a ride with someone- not all people live close enough to people to do that.\nBahaa Tahtamouni April 11, 2017 at 5:44 am - Reply\nWhy you people comment here like your life depending on it :/\nPaul Ceely April 9, 2017 at 10:45 am - Reply\nBeautiful story, negative comments really are not necessary\nAndy Macnicol April 9, 2017 at 11:02 am - Reply\n\u201cShe walks back too the car\u201d how many people that live in poverty have a car a car is a luxury\nPat Glass April 9, 2017 at 11:11 am - Reply\nThe writer claims he wanted to be anonymous by telling the cashier not to tell them who did it.

        "title": "How to Increase Brain Power, Boost Memory and Become 10X Smarter",
        "raw_content": "How to Increase Brain Power, Boost Memory and Become 10X Smarter\nHave you ever relied on a mental grocery list, only to forget one or two items after you\u2019ve left the supermarket? Or what about an idea or thought that came to mind while you were making your way to work, and you tell yourself you\u2019ll write it down once you reach the office, only to forget about it soon after?\nOur memory, no matter our age, will fail us every now and then. Whether it\u2019s trying to recall something quickly, or remember something long term, we will encounter memory blanks or slips.\nSometimes, when we have too much information to absorb, we go through what is called memory overload, and that also causes our minds to go into a blank, or we\u2019re simply not able to grasp more information. That\u2019s why your teachers will advise against cramming for exams at the last minute!\nSo how to increase brain power, improve your memory and become smarter? I\u2019ll reveal the secret to this in a minute.\nThe Harsh Truth About the Human Brain\nIf you\u2019re looking for ways on how to train your brain to boost memory, this is something you should know:\nThe reality is, our human mind was never made to memorize, store or recall a ton of information.\nBack in the Stone Age, our brain was designed to process the environment around us and to anticipate danger around us. It was all about survival then: hunting for food, finding for shelter and safety away from harm and danger.\nOver time, with developments and discoveries, our brains had to develop and get accustomed to what is around us. The amount of information we now have access to has grown exponentially over the Ages.\nNow, in the Age of Information, the cost of getting new info is so low that it happens right at your fingertips\u2013resulting in information explosion!\nSince we have the capability of info at our fingertips, the amount of information we have to process is ever-increasing. As technology has advanced, we now have to perform more complicated tasks, which require us to quickly retrieve information from our memory (writing, operating a relatively complicated tool, delayed information such as trading goods, signing contracts, etc.).\nThese days, our brains are less like survival organs and more like pattern recognition machines. They are now required to process enormous amounts of information, to make decisions, and to make connections amongst a myriad of information.\nThe Brain\u2019s New Challenge\nWith this change comes new limitations to our brains. Because we have limited brain capacity, the amount of information grows so much that everything just passes through our mind without solid retention (Information overload), and we can\u2019t tell what is useful or not.\nWe\u2019re facing an unprecedented number of tasks to handle on a daily basis\u2013resulting in mental energy that has to be distributed among many different things at once.\nWhen it comes to memorizing, decision making or learning a new skill, which is more valuable to you? Which skills would you rather improve and build on?\nHow to Upgrade Your Brain\nHere is where I\u2019m going to help you to upgrade your brain. Yes, that\u2019s right.\nLike a personal assistant or secretary, I\u2019m going to show you how you can boost brain power and give your brain an aid that will help you to effortlessly sort through all the information that comes to you on a daily basis.\nThis brilliant aid is called the Digital Brain.\nIn contrast to a human brain, computers are great at storing information. It\u2019s reliable (thanks to cloud computing), accurate, and extremely detailed.\nFrom a computing perspective, memory involves three key elements:\nRecording \u2014 storing the information\nOrganization \u2014 archiving it in a logical manner\nRecall \u2014 retrieving it again when you need it\nLike a computer, having a Digital Brain will work in the same way as this memory framework to manage how information flows into and out of your brain.\nWhen setting up a new account on a website, due to strict security settings, many sites require you to come up with complicated passwords with special characters that you don\u2019t usually use.\nAs a result, you now have to memorize this new password (Record), associate it with the other passwords that\u2019s stored in your brain (Organize), and enter that password the next time you log in (Recall).\nEven in this simple example, there are several parts in the process which will make it all too easy to forget. Because this new password is unique, we have a hard time recognizing it with our regular patterns. And if we don\u2019t use the password everyday, it\u2019s easy to forget it after a few days. One day you\u2019ll try to recall the password but enter the incorrect one over and over again.\nSound familiar? It\u2019s one of the most common things that happen.\nIs it because the information is complicated? Nope. A password is just a bunch of characters, numbers, and symbols.\nIt happens because our brains are not made to memorize. With a Digital Brain, you can delegate it to do the heavy lifting.\nMaking Room for Learning and Creativity\nMany people get confused with storing versus learning in this Digital Age.\nLearning requires spaced repetition, applying different learning models and then applying those skills. Whereas storing means having information in a \u2018library\u2019.\nWhen you go to a library, you borrow a book to find a specific piece of information. When you\u2019re done with it, you put it back. With a Digital Brain, this becomes your personal library of knowledge.\nWith your brain now freed up from having to store information, it can focus on more crucial aspects like learning, decision making, problem solving and making meaning out of all the incoming information.\nWouldn\u2019t this be much easier for you to get things done on a daily basis? Whether it be something as trivial as getting your groceries, or something more complex like planning out what\u2019s needed for a project you\u2019re working on. Your Digital Brain will help you effortlessly organize it.\nHere at Lifehack, we\u2019ll teach you how to set up a system to record, organize and recall information effortlessly. You\u2019ll also learn how to build a habit to rely on your Digital Brain like second nature, all in a step by step manner.\nA Digital Brain for Everyone (No Matter How Old You Are)\nI\u2019m sure some of you might be wondering if this is really for you. You may be well into your 50\u2019s or 60\u2019s, and going digital isn\u2019t something you\u2019re keen to keep up with.\nWell, the good news is that having a Digital Brain isn\u2019t reserved for Millennials or the younger generation. There are many layers to the Digital Brain, and the interesting thing is that it\u2019s constantly upgrading according to new advances in technology.\nSo, you get to pick how much of a Digital Brain you want to adopt into your existing lifestyle. Age need not be a barrier when it comes to adopting a Digital Brain!\nThe 7 Cornerstone Skills\nIn the Lifehack Ultimate Transformation course, we\u2019ll go over how to make the most of your Digital Brain, along with 6 other Cornerstone Skills that will compliment and enhance your way of seeing and doing things. We\u2019ll show you what the 7 Cornerstone Skills are, and how to really sharpen and use them to transform your life in a way that creates permanent change!\nFeatured photo credit: Priscilla Du Preez via unsplash.com",

        "title": "How You Can Be a Professional Musician and Still Keep Your Day Job",
        "raw_content": "How You Can Be a Professional Musician and Still Keep Your Day Job\nAs a musician, it\u2019s easy to feel that your passion of making music is at odds with the obligations of your day job (which also happens to pay your bills). You love creating and performing music but you also have a certain lifestyle and responsibilities as well. Can you achieve equilibrium by keeping a steady job to pay the bills and receive benefits while holding/growing a professional music career? How can you give both equal attention so that you don\u2019t end up losing one or the other?\nHere\u2019s a list of ideas to help you can make that happen:\nFind a Career with Flexible Work Options: These days, it\u2019s becoming more popular for employees to have the option of telecommuting or working from home. For touring musicians who need the income stability that a job can provide, this is a great option. Even though your current position might not offer telecommuting as an option, it is always possible to sway the opinion of your supervisors. This article offers 5 tips to convince the boss.\nIf telecommuting can\u2019t work, you could always see if your employer is open to a flexible scheduling option. For example, you might have several regional, weekend tours and may not need to be away for weeks at a time. Perhaps you could request working 4 ten-hour days instead of five 8\u2019s. You might also be able to request a leave of absence for other extended leaves if you don\u2019t have enough vacation time. The most important thing is to be up front and communicate openly \u2013 the more advance notice, the better. Most employers will want to accommodate your needs, especially if you do good work and can prove that you\u2019ll still take your responsibilities seriously.\nCreate Your Own Day Job: Many musicians have a special skill set that allows them to supplement their music\u2019s income by starting a small business. Whether it is consulting, IT work, or running a small business, sometimes the best boss who understands your rock n\u2019 roll needs is yourself. You could always explore this as an option during your free time. Be sure to also read this article on How to Start a Business for some advice.\nAdjust The Music Business: No matter what, you\u2019ll want to set up goals and have some kind of plan on how to reach them. Not all musicians need to tour frequently or live a life on the road. Some have very successful careers without leaving the city. You just need to understand what kind of music business model you are building for yourself: you might want earn a living through licensing rather than the traditional approach of playing gigs every night. Think about how much you want to perform or create, what you would like to see in return for your investment in music (money, influence, fame,?), and what you\u2019ll need in order to accomplish those goals. You might surprise yourself and learn that creating a sustainable music career is quite possible, even with a steady day job.\nHire musicians: Some touring bands have a rotating cast of performers; some even use a different lead singer when they\u2019re on the road. If you\u2019re unable to join your band for every tour, perhaps you could have a friend or a hired gun fill in for your role on some of the smaller gigs. Carefully think about the music arrangements and see if there\u2019s a way to manage performances in a way that doesn\u2019t require you to be there. It\u2019s becoming more popular than ever for bands to tour as an acoustic duo or have the singer tour solo.\nBottom line: it is not impossible be a professional musician while holding down a day job. Many musicians also supplement their income by running their own businesses as studio engineers, guitar or vocal teachers, booking agents, or food cart owners. Some restrict their performances to weekends and use vacation hours to work. Others take a leave of absence. Just remember that no matter what arrangement works for you, it\u2019s important to achieve balance, have clear and open communication with everyone involved, and that it ultimately reflects your personal life goals.\nFeatured photo credit: beautiful young woman playing the piano via Shutterstock\n10 Steps to Be a Rock Star at Anything",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Blog / Life of an Architect \u2013 Best of 2014\nLife of an Architect \u2013 Best of 2014\nWhile 2014 isn\u2019t technically over yet, it isn\u2019t going to stop me [cause I do what I want] from looking back at all the articles I wrote over the year to see which ones represented the very best that 2014 and I had to offer. This post represents the 106th post I\u2019ve written in 2014 for Life of an Architect, a number that I find staggering considering how busy I\u2019ve been \u2026 I\u2019m not sure how I found the time to do it and still maintain any sanity.\nFor today, I thought I would look back and list the 5 most read articles from this year \u2013 maybe you missed them the first time around, or maybe they might be worth a second look.\nYou Make your Own Opportunities\nYoung architectural interns are awesome \u2026 full of promise and possibility. I\u2019ve been around the architectural block more times than I care to admit at this stage of my career and I have learned a few things along the way. One upside of working many jobs is that you get to experience all sorts of different project types, firm sizes, and management techniques. I have felt that there were some jobs that prepared me to achieve success more readily than others but I typically learned something of value at every job I\u2019ve ever had \u2013 sometimes learning what not to do is as important as learning what you should do.\nHow does a pier and beam foundation work? A close up look at the progress on the KHouse Modern and an opportunity to explain how pier and beam foundations work.\nOn the residential part of our practice, we do a lot of pier and beam foundations. There are other options available to us \u2013 some include post-tensioned slab on grade and plain ol\u2019 slab on grade, and all of these options are fine under the right circumstances but if I had my pick (which I normally do) we recommend the pier and beam structural foundation. The soil in my area of practice tends to be expansive because it contains a healthy dose of clay, which expands and contracts as moisture enters the equation. Add water, through rain and irrigation, and the soil expands. Remove water due to hot and dry conditions, and the soil contracts. All this soil movement adds up to cracks in the house. Because we like to help eliminate the movement issues that come along with expansive soil, we like designing with a pier and beam foundation.\nShould I be an Architect?\nThe last several years have been hard on the architectural profession. The tone of the questions I\u2019ve received have shifted from:\n\u201cShould I become an Architect?\u201c\n\u201cWhy should I become an Architect?\u201c\nTo be fair, the last several years have been hard on a lot of people, not just architects, but I\u2019ve decided that it\u2019s time to focus my thoughts on why I became an architect \u2013 maybe you can relate, find inspiration, or confirm that this either is \u2013 or isn\u2019t \u2013 the profession for you after reading this article.\nProjects in architectural school tend to be somewhat outrageous \u2013 designing something to exist on the dark side of the moon isn\u2019t all that unlikely. But what is the point of designing these incredibly odd and silly projects?\nToday is a first \u2013 I am doing something that I told myself that I would never do \u2026 show you one of my projects from architecture school. Why the change of heart? I\u2019m not entirely sure, maybe it\u2019s the presentation I am putting together for a group of freshman architecture students \u2026 or maybe it\u2019s because I found some of this stuff during my recent move and I got a good laugh after looking through my work. Anybody who has successfully gone through architectural school and had a little bit of time pass since graduation will tell you; all those awesome projects that you did while you were in school \u2026 they\u2019re kind of silly.\n[drum roll please \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.]\nEver wished your sketches looked like mine? I didn\u2019t think so but that didn\u2019t stop me from sharing the tips and techniques I use to get my sketches to look the way they do. Architectural sketching is becoming a thing of the past \u2013 at least that\u2019s how it seems to me most days. I graduated eons ago back in 1992, back in the days that pre-date computers in the studio. This doesn\u2019t mean that everyone who graduated in my era could sketch \u2013 far from it. What it means is that we learned how to think and communicate our ideas slightly different from the product of today\u2019s architecture programs. Now that I\u2019ve been at this \u201carchitect\u201d thing for a little while, I can look back at my sketches, all the way back to my time in school, and see how my sketch technique has evolved and how that technique has shaped my architectural solutions.\nI don\u2019t know if I am surprised by these or not \u2013 but from my standpoint, I am glad to see that there was a wide array of topics covered. Since I try and write the articles on my site so that they appeal to a broad spectrum of interests, I can look at these Top 5 articles and see that there wasn\u2019t one sort of topic over represented. (I am particularly glad to see the pier and beam post on this list, I am always concerned that the job site updates I post might be a little too technical for many of the people who regularly read Life of an Architect.]\nI am already starting to formulate ideas for the topics I should cover in 2015 (can you believe it?!?) so if you are a regular around the site here, please let me know if there is something in particular you would like me to cover. I need to keep this interesting or I will probably quit doing it \u2013 I\u2019m sure my musing and articles are starting to get a little stale if I\u2019m not careful.\nThanks for dropping by the site \u2013 extra thanks if you left a comment and participated in the on-going conversations that take place in the comment section. I don\u2019t take too many opportunities to tell you that I appreciate you \u2026 but I do, greatly.\nJob Site Vocabulary - a starter kit\nThe 'Fun Guard Beach House' - Winner's Profile\nArchitectural T-Shirts\nFiled Under: Blog, Career, Construction, Design, Do you want to be an Architect?, Graphics, Life in General, Observations, Sketching Tagged With: architectural sketching, Construction Observation, Construction Process, interns, KHouse Modern, sketching",

        "raw_content": "Cruise Ship Passenger Slip and Fall Lawyer\nHomeCruise Ship Passenger Slip and Fall Lawyer\nWhen you set out on your cruise vacation, the last thing you want is to suffer a slip and fall. However, this type of injury is not only possible, but very likely at sea. In fact, by far the most common type of passenger accidents on a cruise ship are slip and falls. There are numerous factors that can cause such an accident. Given the increased potential for wet or uneven environments on a cruise ship, every year, countless cruise ship passengers fall victim to slip and falls by cruise pools (which are passed by on the way to the buffet) or water parks, on the stairs and over deck railings, to name a few. Unfortunately, many individuals believe they, themselves, are to blame for the accident and do not realize that their cruise line can and should be held accountable for creating or allowing these slippery and dangerous environments that can lead to serious injuries.\nCruise ship slip accidents can result in bodily harm that includes but is not limited to broken bones, sprains, fractures, knee and shoulder tears, back and neck injuries, and even spinal cord damage. Although some injuries may seem minor at first, in many cases, individuals may require serious surgeries and substantial time off of work in order to recover and regain the mobility they once had.\nWe Will Hold the Cruise Line Accountable\nThe team at Lipcon, Margulies, Alsina & Winkleman, P.A. has extensive experience with cruise ship passenger slip and falls. In fact, we have helped hundreds of individuals navigate their slip and fall cases, so that they receive the just compensation and resolution they deserve.\nAlthough it may only take a moment to lose footing on a cruise, it can take weeks, months and even years to make a full recovery from a slip and fall injury. The process of returning to work and getting back to life as usual may be lengthy and expensive. From the financial strain to the emotional distress, this is not a burden anyone should have to handle on their own. Additionally, the cruise industry should understand the importance of placing passenger safety first, and be forced to see how their negligence negatively impacts individuals and the overall brand image. When a serious slip and fall accident occurs, the cruise line should take the opportunity to learn from their mistake and make every possible accommodation to prevent these kinds of life-changing events from happening again in the future.\nOur Experienced Maritime Lawyers Can Take Your Case\nIf you have suffered a slip and fall while aboard a cruise, rest assured that you do not have to face the cruise line on your own. Our team has recovered over $200 million for our clients in the wake of accidents occurring aboard cruise ships. Although we believe our results offer insight into what we have accomplished, we look forward to speaking with you to discuss how we plan to achieve the results you deserve.\nSo if you have questions about your slip and fall case, we are ready to help.

They sneak up on people and can go unnoticed by almost everyone until it is too late. These massive fires tend to be triggered by lightning or an accident by irresponsible people playing with fire or camping. The fire spreads quickly, igniting trees, bushes, homes, destroying thousands of acres, killing people, and ruining entire environments. Throughout history, there have been some truly horrify wildfires. So, here are the ten most destructive fires that were ever recorded by mankind.\nThe 1921 Mari Wildfires\nThe wildfires within the Mari Autonomous Oblast, within the eastern portion of Russia, occurred in the summer of 1921. This wildfire burned thousands of acres of pine forest, killed thirty-five people, and one-thousand cattle. Sixty small villages were burnt to the ground.\nThe Wallow Fire\nThe Wallow Fire got its name from the Bear Wallow Wilderness area in eastern Arizona where the fire started. It was all started by an abandoned campfire in 2011, and encompassed 841 square miles. Despite being the largest fire in Arizona history, no one died but six-thousand people were evacuated.",

They\u2019ve shown belief in me by giving me a two-year contract, so I need to repay the faith next year and have a good two years.\n\u201cI believe we can do a lot of damage next year and I think we could push on to win some silverware for the club.\u201d",

Known for their stunningly theatrical live show and artsy masks, this innovative band has forged new ground in the rock world and influenced many other bands to push the envelope and bring art into rock. Formed in the early-1990s in Cleveland Ohio, the band\u2019s combination of metal, rock and atmospheric elements has struck a chord with thousands of fans worldwide.\nMushroomhead have been performing incognito since 1993, when drummer Skinny founded the band. The band was meant to be a side-project so they wore masks to go unrecognized, but after only a few shows they developed a rabid and loyal fan base in Cleveland. Mushroomhead released their 1995 self-titled debut album independently and it went on to became an underground hit. This was history in the making because the band really had no proper distribution. Superbuick followed in 1996 and M3 in 1999, all released via an underground street effort. After the band felt its image and hyper-melodic, heavy style of music was being diluted by other bands jumping into this space, the band started to change their look to reflect nothing out there. After a brief stint on Eclipse Records, a move to Universal Records saw the release of XX (a combination of the past independent releases) in 2001 and XIII in 2003. The band\u2019s last album sold over 200,000 units in the USA alone. Mushroomhead released Savior Sorrow for the pioneering rock label, Megaforce Records (Metallica, Anthrax, Ministry, Warren Haynes, Bad Brains) in 2006. Mushroomhead released \u201cBeautiful Stories for Ugly Children\u201d in the Fall of 2010 and it debuted at #44 on Billboard charts.\nIt can be said that Mushroomhead\u2019s musical ascendance was a singular, original, aesthetic of eight guys decked out in matching jumpsuits and artsy masks, playing unbelievable, unsettling music. No other band was wearing masks and jumpsuits and purveying this type of ultra-melodic, ultra-dynamic music at the time \u2013 Mushroomhead sounded like nothing else. The band\u2019s merging of metal, atmospheric elements, rock, and theatrics mixed with a punk DIY attitude has inspired and spawned other bands. Even though Mushroomhead\u2019s music is rock-leaning in thought, the group remains firmly committed to pushing the envelope and trying new things. Influences range from the driving rhythms and breakneck turns of Pantera, to the dark melodies of Faith No More, to the atmospheric stylings of Pink Floyd, but all done in Mushroomhead style.\nPowerman 5000 - When Worlds Collide Powerman 5000 - Bombshell\nPowerman 5000 (sometimes abbreviated to PM5K) is an American rock band formed in 1991. The group has released nine albums, gaining its highest level of commercial success with 1999's Tonight the Stars Revolt!, which reached number 29 on the Billboard 200 while spawning the singles \"When Worlds Collide\" and \"Nobody's Real\". Frontman Spider One is the younger brother of fellow metal musician Rob Zombie.\nAshes of Ammon\nAOA is a metal band from Lynchburg VA. Consisting of Zack Cole on vocals, Scott Hare on guitar, Justin \u201cDirte\u201d Dotson on bass, and Taylor Dotson on drums.\nMushroomhead - Sun Doesn't Rise Mushroomhead - Solitaire Unraveling Mushroomhead - Qwerty Mushroomhead - Out of My Mind Powerman 5000 - When Worlds Collide Powerman 5000 - Bombshell Ashes of Ammon - The Prey",

        "title": "Meaningful School Reform Needed \u2013 Mackinac Center",
        "raw_content": "Meaningful School Reform Needed\nBy Audrey Spalding\nA chart created by the Michigan Department of Education showing how focus schools compare to other Michigan schools.\nRecently, many Ann Arbor parents received a letter informing them that there was a relatively large gap between high-performing and low-performing students in their child's school. They could, the letter said, choose to transfer their child to another school with a smaller achievement gap.\nThe twist, noted AnnArbor.com, is that the alternative schools with low achievement gaps also tended to report lower overall student performance.\nThe letters were to communicate a new school measure created by the Michigan Department of Education in response to federal policy. Schools identified as having a larger-than-average gap between the top 30 percent of student test scores and the bottom 30 percent of student test scores are now labeled as \"focus\" schools, regardless of overall performance.\nFor some Ann Arbor schools, the state's attempt to find another measure to identify poor-performing schools seems absurd: Ann Arbor's Angell Elementary School was labeled a focus school, despite the fact that the school ranks in the 98th percentile of Michigan schools.\nThe case of Ann Arbor's focus schools highlights the difficulty of using broad, statewide policies and measures to increase accountability and to force schools to implement reform.\nAdministrators are scrambling to explain why high-performing schools are being called out, while lower-performing schools with smaller achievement gaps (see the chart nearby) are overlooked.\nMichigan is in an interesting position: State politicians and officials have been pursuing significant education reform measures, such as improving teacher tenure and evaluation rules and encouraging cross-district choice. However, these are tweaks to the state-run education system, and their impact, while promising, is unknown. Moreover, as legislators implement reform, they are also expanding the state's influence over Michigan schools.\nThe state of Michigan now tells public schools how much to spend on health insurance, which teachers to terminate and, perhaps soon, the best way to evaluate a teacher's performance.\nThese reforms are certainly laudable, and will help Michigan reduce its education costs while increasing educational choice for families. But, as is already playing out in the federal health care debate, the expansion of government influence can be easily used to advance the latest whims of whichever political party is in power. The best protection for taxpayers is to limit that expansion of power, regardless of what reform is peddled.\nThe best way to enable Michigan parents to enroll their child in a positive learning environment would be to allow a certain amount of state money to follow each student to any chosen school. The decision of what constitutes a \"failing\" school would be left up to parents and children, and parents would have great leverage \u2014 the ability to take the dollars associated with their children to another school \u2014 to demand quality education.\nThis would allow parents to support educational innovation the state has not anticipated or has blocked. For example, allowing dollars to easily follow students could also help address the state's restrictions on online education funding. Parents could also choose schools that do manage to provide for all employee health care costs while providing a quality and cost effective education.\nSadly, this level of educational freedom is prohibited under Michigan's Constitution. Article VIII, section two states in part that:\nNo payment, credit, tax benefit, exemption or deductions, tuition voucher, subsidy, grant or loan of public monies or property shall be provided, directly or indirectly, to support the attendance of any student or the employment of any person at any such non public school...\nAnd this prohibition isn't usual: Michigan is the only state with a constitution that prohibits both school choice voucher and tax credit programs.\nThe Mackinac Center has been pointing out for years that this prohibition means that the most promising mechanisms for improving education are not an option in Michigan.\nThough Florida's education tax credit program has been shown to help increase student achievement, it can't be replicated in Michigan.

Made in Shropshire is often invited to take part in other events around the County too.\nThe Group has benefited from the generosity of local accountants Whittingham Riddell, the Shrewsbury Branch of NFU Mutual, Shropshire County Council and Shrewsbury & Atcham Borough Council.",

        "raw_content": "Submitted By Alla-Huang\nBATTLING BED BUGS IN CHICAGO:\nMaking the Case for a Comprehensive Plan\nSAFER PEST\nCONTROL PROJECT www. spcpweb.org\nFunding Provided by: The Field Foundation of Illinois, Inc.\nSAFER PEST CONTROL PROJECT AND BED BUGS IN CHICAGO\nSafer Pest Control Project (SPCP) is an award winning nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing the health risks and environmental impacts of pesticides and promoting safer pest control alternatives in Illinois. Since 1994, SPCP has been a leader in reducing pesticide use and has focused much of its efforts on reducing the impacts of pests and pesticides in Chicago\u2019s lowincome communities. In 2008, Safer Pest Control Project began receiving an unprecedented number of calls from distressed residents looking for answers on how to deal with bed bugs. As an organization with expertise in Integrated Pest Management, SPCP quickly recognized the magnitude of this emergent problem and the critical need for educational materials, training, and community outreach.\nIn addition to the tenant and management calls that SPCP was receiving, we also started to receive numerous reports from Aldermanic offices across the city and from pest management professionals, confirming the spread of bed bugs across Chicago. In January 2009, we wrote a letter to Mayor Daley, highlighting the resurgence of bed bugs, recommending that the City create a comprehensive program to address the bed bug problem and offering our assistance.\nMeetings were called and an intergovernmental group was assembled, headed by Evelyn Diaz, the former Mayor\u2019s deputy chief of staff. Through these meetings, held over the course of one year, SPCP helped the City recognize the magnitude of this escalating problem by providing a basic understanding of the bed bug issue and presenting the challenges the City would likely face in the near future. As a direct outcome of the meetings, SPCP provided training to the\nCity\u2019s building inspectors. SPCP also helped coordinate, with funding from the Chicago Community Trust, the development of bed bug tracking maps, starting in January 2010. With assistance from the Chicago Department of Public Health, bed bug infestation reports received by 311 were collected and used to create GIS maps in order to better assess the spread of this pest. Safer Pest Control Project also became the City\u2019s delegate agency for bed bugs. Essentially,\nSPCP is now the on-the-ground \u201cbed bug agency,\u201d providing resources and training services to many Chicago audiences. The City now has a bed bug webpage that has SPCP\u2019s fact sheets as the primary source of information. Many City agencies and departments have taken specific independent actions around bed bugs, but the City still lacks a comprehensive approach to dealing with this growing problem.\nPAG E 1\nBed bugs are making a comeback across the United States and, unfortunately, Chicago has not been spared. Bed bugs are showing up in apartments, houses, shelters, and commercial spaces around the city, catching many residents and institutions off guard. While bed bugs were a regular but unwelcome part of life previous to the 1950\u2019s in the U.S., bed bug incidences and awareness dropped off for many decades. Today, bed bugs are back, and many residents are unaware or unknowledgeable about bed bugs. In a recent survey conducted by the National Pest Management Association, only 13 percent of respondents could correctly answer all three basic bed bug questions.1,* Many organizations and governmental agencies are also without adequate knowledge, resources, and policies to deal with this crisis. The City is now playing catch up with this growing problem and needs to bring this issue to the forefront of its agenda.\nOnce thought a thing of the past, bed bugs are making a resurgence across the nation as well as in Canada, Australia, parts of Europe, and parts of Africa.2 They are not a new pest and scientists\u2026\nRelated Documents: Bed Bug White Paper Final\nCancer White Paper\nMy boss has asked me (a communication specialist) to write an informative white paper about the business of developing new drugs for cancer patients.

        "raw_content": "New insights into the evolution of artemisinin resistant malaria\nOur latest study, published this week in eLife, found that Plasmodium falciparum kelch13 mutations that cause artemisinin resistant malaria in Southeast Asia show markedly different patterns of evolutionary selection in Africa.\nThe efficacy of Artemisinin Combination Therapy (ACTs), the current frontline treatment for falciparum malaria, is threatened by artemisinin resistance, which has been reported in several countries in Southeast Asia. To date, there are no clinical signs of artemisinin resistance in Africa, where malaria transmission is highest.\nArtemisinin resistance is caused by mutations in a parasite gene called kelch13, and researchers have previously identified over 20 different mutations in P. falciparum that are associated with artemisinin resistance. Given that several mutations are involved, and that the same mutation can arise independently in different locations, it is difficult to track the spread of resistance using conventional molecular marker approaches.\nUnder the banner of the P. falciparum Community Project, we sequenced and analysed the whole genomes of more than 3,000 P. falciparum samples from Southeast Asia and Africa. Our aim was to determine whether the kelch13 mutations observed in Southeast Asia were also present in Africa and, if so, where did they originate.\nWe found that African parasites had independently acquired many of the same kelch13 mutations that are known to cause resistance to artemisinin in Southeast Asia. However, the kelch13 mutations seen in Africa remained at low frequency in the parasite population, and appeared to be under much less pressure for evolutionary selection than those found in Southeast Asia. Non-synonymous mutations, which are typically uncommon in highly conserved genes, were observed more often than we expected in Southeast Asia, but not in Africa.\n\u201cOne of the key messages to come out of these data is that the emergence of antimalarial drug resistance is determined not only by the parasite\u2019s ability to generate new mutations,\u201d says Prof. Dominic Kwiatkowski, from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, University of Oxford. \u201cThere are also other factors \u2013 such as patterns of drug use, levels of malaria transmission and other epidemiological variables \u2013 that determine whether a particular mutation will rise in frequency and spread through the parasite population.\u201d\nBlogs about this paper\nDr Roberto Amato, a lead author on the paper, discusses what we\u2019ve learned about the complex genomic epidemiology of artemisinin resistant malaria:\nOxford Science Blog: http://www.ox.ac.uk/news/science-blog/malariagen-secrets-kelch13\nSanger Institute Blog: https://sangerinstitute.wordpress.com/2016/03/07/evolution-of-artemisinin-resistant-malaria/\nMalariaGEN P. falciparum Community Project.

        "title": "Why People Use Social Media - And How They Think Brands Should Use It - Marketing Charts",
        "raw_content": "Why People Use Social Media \u2013 And How They Think Brands Should Use It\nSocial media is most frequently used to connect with friends and family, as two-thirds of people across 9 countries use social for this purpose on at least a weekly basis. So finds Edelman\u2019s Special Report: Brands and Social Media [pdf], which surveyed 1,000 respondents in each of 9 markets.\nMost people (65%) also use social media on at least a weekly basis as a source of entertainment and to read or watch news and information (63%).\nThere\u2019s certainly a place for brands to be present in people\u2019s social media lives: around half said they use social media at least weekly to get news about companies they\u2019re interested in, and the vast majority (84%) use social for this purpose at least occasionally.\nBrands can take advantage of this by showcasing their wares, per a recent report. In its survey, Sprout Social found that posts that showcase new products or services are among the most sought-after by social media users.\nHowever, despite social media\u2019s power in driving brand and product awareness, respondents to Edelman\u2019s survey believe that it has more relevance to them as a customer service vehicle.\nWhen asked what they consider to be among the best and most effective ways for brands to use social media to reach them, the largest share (60%) of respondents cited the delivery of customer service. Roughly half (51%) said that introducing new products is the most effective way to reach them, while more than 4 in 10 see the value in brands advertising their products (45%), giving people the opportunity to interact with a brand directly (44%) and communicating their purpose and values (43%). That last point is worth considering in light of research indicating that consumers care deeply about purpose-driven companies.\nSocial\u2019s ability to allow companies to interact directly with consumers is also important given that respondents are more likely to believe what a brand says in direct communications over email, instant messaging or social media comments (59%) than what it says in its advertising (41%).\nFurthermore, about 4 in 10 respondents on average across the 9 countries (30% in the US) agree that they\u2019re unlikely to become emotionally attached to a brand unless they are interacting and communicating with it via social media.\nSocial\u2019s Tops for Entertainment, Discovery, Emotional Bonds\nGiven the ways in which respondents use social media and what they hope to see from brands, it\u2019s not too surprising that social platforms have a leg up on traditional media and search for some attributes.\nFor example, respondents on average were most likely to say that social media \u2013 rather than traditional, online, owned or search \u2013 is the most entertaining medium, as well as the one they would be least able to live without, and the one with which they spend the most time.\nMoreover, social tops the other platforms as the medium where respondents discover or hear about a new brand or product for the first time. It\u2019s also the the type of media where respondents most often see and hear things that lead them to fall in or out of love with a brand.\nInterestingly, while social media may generate awareness, it seems to have less value to people further along the purchase journey. Instead, search was cited as the media type where respondents are most likely to see information that convinces them to purchase a specific brand.\nAnd while traditional media doesn\u2019t top many attributes, it does have its strengths. Namely, it\u2019s considered the least annoying media type to use, with advertising that\u2019s the least disruptive of the overall user experience. That may be why consumers continue to retain their highest levels of favorability for traditional rather than digital media ads.\nHow to Rise Above Mistrust on Social Media\nWhile social represents a tantalizing platform for brands, it\u2019s not without its issues. Just 4 in 10 respondents on average (including only 34% in the US) agree, for example, that social media is performing well in controlling the spread of false information and in controlling hate speech, trolling and intimidation. Social media certainly struggles with privacy and brand safety issues, and while ire is typically directed towards the platforms, brands can become embroiled in these problems.\nAccording to Edelman\u2019s study, almost half of respondents (47%) agree that the points of view that appear near a brand\u2019s advertising and marketing messages are an indication of that brand\u2019s values and what it stands for. Also, more than 2 in 3 people believe that brands should pressure social media platforms to do more about false information and fake news (70%) and protect users from offensive/harmful content (68%).\nAs such, brands need to ensure that the information they post on social media is deemed credible and trustworthy. The principal ways by which respondents determine whether or not to trust information or other content they see on social media is by the quality of the writing or visuals (65%). Previous research has likewise found that mistakes and errors are the leading reason why consumers lose trust in digital brands.\nBeyond the quality of the content, people also judge information by looking at the author\u2019s credentials or expertise (63%) and the extent to which the content is well-designed and looks formal (58%). Most take into account the ease in determining who paid for the content (57%) and are positively influenced by the logo of the organization that produced the content being displayed next to the post (55%).\nFinally, it doesn\u2019t hurt to have a multi-platform approach. Fully two-thirds (65%) of people say that it\u2019s important to them when judging social media content credibility that they\u2019ve seen the same information on TV or in the newspapers (65%). Most also say it\u2019s important to them to have seen the same information on several social media platforms (59%) and for the same information to have been shared with them by several people (57%).\nThe full report is available to view here [pdf].\nAbout the Data: The results are based on a survey conducted April 16-30, 2018 among 1,000 respondents in each of these 9 markets: Brazil; Canada; China; France; Germany; India; UAE; the UK; and the US.\nNew Stats: How People Want to Engage with Brands on Social Media Social Media Continues to Top Email in Perceived Effectiveness for Marketers How People Get The News: TV > Radio > Social Media > Newspapers How People Learn About \u2013 and Judge \u2013 Corporate Social Responsibility Efforts People Aren\u2019t That Interested in Making Purchases Through Social Media or Chatbots So People Want Brands to be More Transparent on Social Media.

        "title": "DORIC LINE IS EPICA POETRY \u2013 Marketing Week",
        "raw_content": "DORIC LINE IS EPICA POETRY\nBritain remained dominant at the 1995 Epica Awards, winning 13, closely followed by Sweden and France, but the coveted Epica d\u2019Or was won by regional Scottish agency Faulds Advertising, proving that you don\u2019t have to be a big fish to succeed \u2013 just have big ideas. By Stuart Smith\nWhat is a \u201cfoggy bummer\u201d? Well, briefly, it\u2019s one of a series of ads that, against all odds, won the supreme prize for creativity at this year\u2019s Epica advertising awards.\nThe Epica awards are judged by international trade journalists, from over 20 countries. Many are gifted linguists, English being the lingua franca. All the same, a campaign for a local radio station, BBC Radio Scotland, featuring an obscure Scottish dialect called \u201cthe Doric\u201d in one of the ads, was not the most obvious candidate for the Epica d\u2019Or 1995.\nDon\u2019t imagine competition for the top prize wasn\u2019t tough. As usual, West End advertising featured prominently among the category winners, and since the Epica d\u2019Or is selected from this elite constituency, BBC Radio Scotland was in some very distinguished company. Bartle Bogle Hegarty\u2019s \u201cClayman\u201d \u2013 it\u2019s first animated campaign for Levi jeans \u2013 was runner-up. Abbott Mead Vickers.- BBDO\u2019s \u201cTwister\u201d, the Volvo 850 ad featuring a tornado, also made good headway. As did \u201cCarl in New York, Young &amp; Rubicam\u2019s latest ad for Pirelli; and \u201cMind Game\u201d, the grainy black-and-white TV ad for Tag Heuer by BDDP Paris.\nUltimately, the BBC Radio Scotland campaign won because it was more imaginative. Note in passing the creative leverage of what, compared with many category winners, was a minute budget. More significant, however, was the ingenious approach to the brief adopted by Edinburgh-based Faulds Advertising. Copywriter Adrian Jeffery and art director Lindsey Redding skilfully overcame the near insuperable problem of representing radio sounds in a visual medium (TV), by use of innovative graphics. The diversity of the station\u2019s programming and audience was reflected in a series of executions which involved the creative team sitting through hundreds of hours of broadcast output. Each execution, however, was convincingly branded with the same visual hallmarks sub- sumed in the theme: \u201cRediscover the power of the spoken word.\u201d\nWhile small may be beautiful for the Epica d\u2019Or, increasing size and internationalisation mattered elsewhere. Notably, Y&R picked up five winners in five countries and BBDO five winners in four. DDB Needham, McCann-Erickson and TBWA also did well.\nThe most successful agency was, for the first time, French \u2013 BDDP Paris, which took four winners. Overall, however, Britain remains the dominant ad culture, with a total of 57 finalists, of which 13 took prizes. This despite the fact that senior British creatives are still imposing an informal embargo on the Awards.\nSweden, which weighed in second, provides the measure. It fielded 42 finalists, of which 11 were winners. Third, in category winners and finalists, was France with ten and 20 respectively. Overall, Epica entries increased 17 per cent, while the number of participating countries went up for the ninth consecutive year.\nBy the way, a \u201cfoggy bummer\u201d is a bumble bee.\nThe `feel-good factor\u2019 has not proved a problem for advertisers, who raised their spend by a staggering 26.3 per cent last year.

        "title": "Nanotech: Are we losing the battle? - MaRS",
        "raw_content": "Nanotech: Are we losing the battle?\nby George Botos\nWho's the real dummy?\nOver the past decade, nanotechnology has enjoyed a lot of attention from the research and industry communities. That seems to be changing.\nAccording to the latest Lux Research Report: \u201cNanomaterials State of the Market Q1 2009: Cleantech\u2019s Dollar Investments, Penny Returns\u201d, nanotechnology is becoming mainstream. The industry will slowly stop using the term \u201cnano\u201d as a marketing tool, as it will be part of most products on the market. More, the \u201cNanophobia\u201d in both in the industry\u2019s and in consumers\u2019 minds, resulting from the recent focus on nano-material Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) has convinced manufacturers that it might not be worth taking the chance.\nAs for the investing environment, there are still good investing opportunities, if you know where to look. According to Lux Research, the nano-intermediates (coatings, memory chips, and catalysts) are the way to go if you\u2019re looking for a nanotech investment. The report predicts an increase in aggregate net profit margins from nine per cent in 2007 to 15% in 2015.\nThe winners seem to be nano-intermediates for electronics and energy (especially energy storage), in the short term, and for health care in the long term. Even though Cleantech is all the hype right now, investment in solar and other green technologies will have poor returns on investment.\nAs for the nanotech research funding, things seems to be going in the right direction \u2014 at least in US. Both government spending and corporate funding for research has been increasing over the past few years, reaching $18.2B in 2008. In 2009, the focus of the government-funded research is expected to change from discovery to environmental, health and safety (EHS) risk research.\nOne of the interesting but not surprising conclusions from this report is that Canada is losing in the competitiveness game, being classified as a \u201cMinor League\u201d country, in the same quadrant with countries like India, Australia and Russia. Even worse, we are the only country to report major decrease in technology development strength (the ability to commercialize innovation) in this quadrant, in 2008.\nIt\u2019s not the lack of investment or the lack of scientists: Canada fared relatively well on both these criteria. It\u2019s the lack of successful transition from research to market. Only very few Canadian companies are considered competitive players in this field, companies like CG2 Nanocoating, Integran Technologies and Nova-Plasma.\nSo my questions are: If we have the scientists and we have the money, why is it so difficult to take advantage of it? And knowing that nanotechnology is an enabling technology that impacts ALL industries, don\u2019t we risk losing our future competitiveness across the board if we fail on this front?\nGeorge Botos\nGeorge is a Schulich MBA student working at MaRS as a Market Research Analyst in Healthcare/Biotech for the Market Readiness Program.

Under the doctrine of contributory negligence, individuals are barred from recovery in a personal injury claim if they are even 1 percent at fault for their accident.\nAlabama is one of the few states in the U.S. that uses this system of fault in personal injury law. Most states, instead, use the \u201ccomparative negligence\u201d system. This system allows injured people to recover in a personal injury claim even if they were partially responsible for their accident. Under the comparative negligence system, a person who is 10 percent responsible for his or her accident can still receive damages from the person who was 90 percent responsible. However, the amount of damages he or she is allowed to receive is reduced by 10 percent.\nFew states use the contributory negligence system because it can lead to harsh outcomes: people who shared very little of the blame for an accident can be denied the compensation they need and deserve. Unfortunately, this is the reality that Alabama residents live in.\nWhen you are injured in an accident in Alabama, the stakes are high. Fault is not always cut and dry, and most defendants will try to argue that they are not completely at fault.\nBecause of this, it\u2019s crucial that you talk to a personal injury lawyer after your accident. A skilled, knowledgeable lawyer can discuss your situation with you and let you know if fault is unclear in your case.\nAt Martinson & Beason, P.C., we have years of experience helping people just like you navigate their personal injury claims. We\u2019re dedicated to providing outstanding service and the best result possible.\nCall us today if you have suffered an injury and have questions about fault or filing a claim. Your consultation with an experienced Huntsville personal injury lawyer is free and confidential.\nTo learn the other elements that can affect a personal injury claim, please visit our What Is My Claim Worth? page.",

        "title": "When Is Dehumidifier Season?",
        "raw_content": "Summer in Massachusetts seems to go hand-in-hand with plugging in your dehumidifier. How else would we be able to manage the sticky summers without dehumidifiers helping to remove that unwanted dampness and humidity? But even though dehumidifiers are most often associated with beating the summer humidity, these appliances provide benefits during several other seasons, too. With summer ending and the cooler months of autumn approaching, now\u2019s a great time to check out these tips for when to use your dehumidifier.\nAs air loses heat, it begins to lose its capacity to retain moisture. This is the reason why the outside of your iced coffee cup sweats on a hot day \u2013 as the air around the cup cools, moisture condenses out. Similarly, a dehumidifier pulls in hot and humid air with a fan and, as this air passes through, it comes into contact with cooled coils; when contact occurs, the moisture condenses out of the air and remains on the coils. From there the collected moisture drips into a bucket, and the air is exhausted back into the room. Through this process, dehumidifiers remove excess moisture from the air, helping eliminate uncomfortable dampness in your home.\nWhen Do I Need a Dehumidifier?\nBy removing unwanted moisture, dehumidifiers help prevent the build-up of mold, mildew, fungi, and dust mites in your home, all of which are common allergens. Mold allergies, for example, are a significant contributor to childhood asthma. This means dehumidifiers can benefit you and your family\u2019s health by reducing these allergens and improving indoor air quality. Dehumidifiers are great for pets too, which can suffer from the same allergies and infections. Plus, dehumidifiers help remove that \u201cwet dog\u201d scent or similar musty odors, another bonus.\nManaging moisture levels in your home also prevents structural damage. Basements and crawl spaces are often prone to dampness, which can ultimately lead to rot in your home\u2019s foundation. Perhaps more surprisingly, a less humid indoor climate also helps ensure things like bread and cereal don\u2019t go stale too quickly, and you\u2019ll be less likely to find rust and corrosion on tools, computers, and other electronics. These benefits promote a healthy indoor environment and make dehumidifiers great to use not only during muggy summers, but also during damp weather in the spring and early fall.\nHibernating for Winter\nWhile comfort may improve by having a dehumidifier on during the warmer, more humid seasons, it is not only unnecessary to leave running during the winter \u2013 it could do harm to the appliance itself. Most dehumidifiers should not be operated in temperatures under 60\u00b0 F because of the potential for moisture removed from the air to freeze on the coils, which can damage the unit. So, while a dehumidifier can prove beneficial during the spring, summer, and early fall, it\u2019s best to unplug your unit as the colder weather arrives.\nAs the end of the year approaches, the weather cools down, and you unplug your dehumidifier, it\u2019s a good time to think about whether you should upgrade your unit. If you\u2019re not using an ENERGY STAR\u00ae certified dehumidifier, it\u2019s a great idea to invest ahead of time for next summer\u2019s promisingly humid season. ENERGY STAR certified models remove the same amount of moisture from the air as non-certified models, but use 28 percent less energy! Over the course of five years this can amount to more than $300 in energy savings.\nPlus, you can save even more by taking advantage of rebates provided by the sponsors of Mass Save\u00ae. In addition to a $30 rebate available for purchasing an ENERGY STAR certified dehumidifier, you also have the opportunity to receive a $30 rebate for recycling your old dehumidifier at no-cost during an upcoming dehumidifier turn-in event. This means you could earn up to $60 in rebates!\nTo learn more about rebates available through the Mass Save program, visit MassSave.com/Rebates! You can also check out the Mass Save Facebook page for additional tips and tricks to improve your home\u2019s energy efficiency. For now, we leave you with this simple one: use a dehumidifier during the spring, summer, and early fall to keep moisture at bay, but unplug and stow it away during the winter to prevent damage to your unit.",

        "raw_content": "It was a busy start to the first week of the 2015 legislative Session. This year is a shorter, 45-day legislative session, but my colleagues and I in the House of Delegates are offering a robust agenda that will prepare Virginia for long-term growth. The 2015 Session gaveled into order on a cold and icy Wednesday morning. It was quite the challenge for many people to get to the General Assembly due to terrible driving conditions, but despite the weather we promptly came to order.\nHowever, please take a moment to fill out my 2015 Legislative Survey. This survey is a means by which the constituents can directly voice their opinions about topics that will be of importance this session. It can be found on my Delegate Facebook page or on my website; Mattfariss.com. Thank you for your time and input.\nTradition and Chamber Ceremony is the standing order of business on the first day of session. Any newly elected officials are sworn into office, and the day concludes with the Governor\u2019s State of the Commonwealth Address. This year the House of Delegates swore in five new members due to a number of retirements and special elections. The Speaker of the House also listed his changes to Committee Assignments. No changes were made to my committees; therefore, I remain on Finance, Agriculture Chesapeake and Natural Resources, and Militia Police and Public Safety. I look forward to representing the 59th district on each of these committees.\nThe first day of Session concluded with the Governor\u2019s First State of the Commonwealth Address since taking office. His full address to the House chamber can be found at governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/videos/governor-mcauliffe-delivers-state-of-the-commonwealth-address/ . The Governor outlined his Legislative agenda and touted his current success of bringing jobs to the Commonwealth. A large portion of his speech focused on his ideas on how to fix the budget. The legislative response to the Governor\u2019s address was given by Delegate Ransone and Senator McWaters. This video can be found at http://www.vahousegop.com/. I encourage you to watch this video, and hear about the robust agenda the Legislature has planned for this Session. I am also optimistic that the Legislature will complete a budget that will help Virginia weather a tough revenue season and a down turn in our economy. I will keep the District informed as to how this budget process is completed.\nThe first week of Session is also a period in which Legislative Drafts and Agendas are finalized. Friday marked the last day for a draft request for new legislation. It is also a time period in which Legislation is referred by the Speaker to a Committee. It is fairly rare for bills to be heard the first week. However, I am happy to announce that my first bill has reported from subcommittee. HB 1545 reported from Courts: sub-committee Civil Law with a 9-0 vote. This is the very first step in a long process, but I am happy to get started off with a quick success. I will continue to keep you posted on important legislation as Session continues to play out. And Please. Make sure you come visit me in Richmond if you find that you have the time.\nIf you have any concerns, questions, comments or issues that I or my Aide, Eric, can help you with, please contact us at 804-698-1059 or email at friendsofmattfariss@gmail.com.",

        "raw_content": "Opinion; Being a dreamer by Daniel Fox\nDreams\u2026we have them all, but very few dare to venture too far to make them a reality. And, yes, it does have a price. But I think most of us who have dared, are ready to pay it, over and over again. Daniel Fox have written a great piece on the subject. He is also a fresh edition to the world of exploration, being one of these human beings who don\u00b4t put their egos first. I have come across so many lately. People just lying straight in your face saying their the first in history to do this and that. Using PR companies and guides to do their work, but telling the world otherwise. It is really sad. I have done these mistakes to a certain degree, sure. But it is still nice to have human beings like Daniel. Read his excellent article below!\nBruised & Battered\nI often wonder how many expeditions, how many movies, how many books, how many genius ideas or how many dreams almost came to be but never saw the light of day. J.K. Rowling, the creator of Harry Potter, one of the most successful stories ever written, saw her manuscript refused 12 times. During the five years it took to finish her first novel, between that day on the train when she imagined Harry\u2019s character and that fateful day when finally her book was chosen by a very small publishing house \u2013 what motivated her to keep writing, against all logic and financial realities? What motivated her to keep presenting her book, rejection after rejection? She had no money. She lived off social security, saw herself as \u201cthe biggest failure\u201d, her marriage had failed, and she was jobless with a dependent child. What pushes people to give up any sense of security and stability for a quest that makes no sense to anybody other than themselves? What is it that they see, or feel, that is worth risking everything for? Even their relationships with cherished ones. They will loose friendships and money and instead rack up tons of debt, stress and worries. Morgan Spurlock had more than $200.000 in credit card debts before his movie \u201cSuper Size Me!\u201d came out! They will have to constantly justify their choice to a world that doesn\u2019t understand. Every day, they will face the judgement of their families, loved ones, and even strangers. Do they need to be crazy? Self centered? Egoistic? Masochistic? Loners? The odds that their efforts will come to fruition are minuscule, and, if by a miracle, they do succeed, they will arrive bruised, battered, and with a sense of disbelief. Having been refused and let down, broken and having fallen so many times, they have come to accept their struggle without ever imagining that making it was any longer possible. I remember reading the story of Edward W. Gillet who kayaked solo his way from San Diego to Hawaii. Within sight of his destination, sixty-three days after leaving the California coast, he was so beaten and disillusioned that he didn\u2019t believe he had actually reached the islands until he literally felt the sand under his feet.\nThe world of exploration is filled with expeditions that saw their major source of funding disappear on the same week that they were scheduled to leave. Where do people get the energy to keep going? How do you keep believing, when everything you have worked so hard for is crumbling again and again? How do you stay optimistic when you are up to you neck? Or when do you decide that you have had enough? Some projects take one year, others ten years, but many more end up in a dusty corner, simply forgotten. So when do you decide that you have invested too much, lost too much and that it is time to throw the towel and give up?\nThe truth is that Dreamers can\u2019t be explained. They defy the norms of logic. There is simply no way of making sense of what they do and why they do it. For them, it is an emotional quest, it is in their guts, and in their hearts. They don\u2019t believe in something because of its potential to succeed. They believe in it because it is simply stronger than them. For every time they will fall, they will get up and continue, even if they die trying. They might be told that they have only a 0.001% chance of making it, yet they will discard the remaining 99,99% of improbabilities and hold on to that fraction of a possibility. As a matter of fact, Dreamers tend to think in a binary mode. There are no fractions or percentages, only yes or no, can or can\u2019t. I can climb this mountain or I can\u2019t. I will reach the pole or I won\u2019t. I will survive or I will not. There are no in-betweens.\nSadly, in a world that has become ever more obsessed with numbers and statistics, all we want is to find ways to quantify dreams and determine their potential. Scientists, mathematicians and Hollywood spend millions every year working out the perfect equation that will predict success and minimize the losses. Banks and investors now solely rely on numbers and before you can count on a loan, their computer will have to approve the worthiness of the return. It is really sad to see that our society has come to put so much emphasis on the financial aspect of dreams. What happened to the mystical aspect of dreams? The possibility of breaking new grounds and new frontiers, just for the sake of it, without a dollar sign at the end? What happened to teaching our children the simple notion of following their intuition and to dream the impossible \u2013 the \u201cSky is the Limit\u201d, we used to say! Having a financial return was never a requisite to dream. Why is it so today?\nIf some of the great explorers were to do today what they did in the past, would Hillary get his funding to climb Everest? Would Columbus get his boats to cross the Atlantic and discover the Americas? Would Scott and Amundsen find the necessary support to explore the South Pole? Would Armstrong have set foot on the moon? Maybe, but unlikely. I do agree that we need to keep in mind the financial aspect, but we have to be careful not to use it as the only measure with which Dreamers are valued.\nThe E.P.I.C. expedition is crazy, I agree. My decision to fully commit to its realization is risky, I agree. For someone my age, I should have a job, a family, be financially stable, and leave this project to others, much younger who have less, or close to nothing to loose \u2013 probably. But it won\u2019t happen! For me there is only one outcome and it is the realization of my project. For me, there is no \u201cmaybe\u201d but only \u201cwhen\u201d. Through hell if I have to, I will buck down and push my way through until I achieve my goal. Independently of how much funding I loose, how many setbacks I will have to face, and how many rejections will come my way, I will keep believing in this. Because, at the end of the day, I want to live in a world where dreams and ideas are encouraged and welcome even if it is only to give people hope and to teach the children that anything is possible!\n\u201cOur dreams disturb us because they refuse to pander to our fondest notions of ourselves. The closer one looks, the more they seem to insist upon a challenging proposition: You must live truthfully. Right now. And always. Few forces in life present, with an equal sense of inevitability, the bare-knuckle facts of who we are, and the demands of what we might become.\u201d\nMarc Ian Barasch, Founder and Executive Director of the Green World Campaign.\nDaniel Fox is a member of the Explorers Club in New York, of the Royal Geographical Society in London and is currently planning a 6-year around-the-world sailing expedition.

        "raw_content": "My #1 absolute top priority as tech lead for any given project is to make sure everyone else has everything they needed to be as productive as possible. A huge part of this just means answering every freaking question ASA-FREAKING-P so that \"blocked while waiting for feedback\" doesn't happen, even if your \"answer\" is just \"go talk to this other person who knows more about that particular area.\"\nStaying this responsive is easy when your team is a few people, but as we all know, lots of projects don't have the luxury of a tight knit dev team where everyone understands the intricate details of what everyone else is working on. My most recent project topped out at 15 developers (plus PMs, the QA team, Product Managers, analysts, etc., bringing the grand total up to about 30), and half of them worked for the client. With a project like that, you find yourself spending the entire day in email and IMs. Otherwise, the questions start getting backed up and people start floundering while they wait on answers.\nHow do you get any actual work done, in the midst of this?\nIt's a tough problem, but there are some options. The option you end up with will depend on a lot of things, such as the amount of actual work you have to do vs. the amount of time you're having to spend helping others, the potential to delegate to someone else to be the official question answerer when you're away, the types of questions you're getting, how much sleep you need, how much you like coffee, etc. Let's dig in to a few possibilities, starting with prioritizing.\nKeeping Priorities Straight\nLet's be honest, you only have so many workable hours in a week, whether you're a human and you stick with 40, or you're a monster and you dip into the triple digits on occasion. If you don't manage it, then you will often find that you're booked for 40 hours of real work and you have 40 hours worth of \"help! how do I do this!\" questions to respond to, and you just can't get it all done.\nSo you have to try prioritizing. This is tricky, because the main purpose of the tech lead is, you know, leading the tech. That means architecting solutions to the tougher problems, or writing up implementation plans, or doing code reviews, or making sure you're staying on top of security updates, or pointing out areas where this feature could share some code with that feature, or even jumping into the trenches and (GASP) doing some actual coding every now and then.\nBut at the same time, if other people are thrashing because they can't get a dang question answered, then that's ultimately on you. If someone spends 2 hours burning time trying to figure out an answer that you could have given in 2 minutes, then that's 2 more hours of work that needs to be done at some point, and on a tight timeline, that might mean 2 less hours of sleep someone is going to end up getting.\nSo which is more important--getting your work done, or helping others' get theirs done?\nThere are some options here, depending on your priorities:\nBlock off some office hours where you're available for questions for a chunk of time per day\nThe opposite--blocking off some GTD time during the day during which you're not available for questions.\nAnswer questions all day, work when you can, and get the rest done during off hours when everyone is sleeping.\nCan the project wait for 2 hours for an answer to something while you get some coding done? Can the project survive by only having the official question answerer available for feedback 2 hours a day? Would the project be better off if you took longer to help others or if you took longer to get your own work done? Can you survive on 3 hours of sleep?\nThese are all important questions, and they all come down to setting priorities on the project. Spend your time on the highest priority \"thing\", whether it's helping Buddy figure out how to add Widget X, or whether it's getting some heads down time on a big feature and leaving everyone else to fend for themselves for a bit.\nDocumentation Can Help Or Hurt\nYou might be saying, \"Why are you having to answer so many questions? Why not just write more documentation and refer the common questions to that?\" And you'd be right--sort of. Documentation can be very powerful, but don't forget the golden rule:\nDocumentation is only useful if it's really useful.\nFor documentation to do any good, it has to have all the obvious things going for it, such as being correct, clear, up to date, etc. But most importantly, it has to have that X factor which is that _it has to be so complete and so correct and so helpful that people just assume that the answers to their questions are there so they go there for answers first. _Because otherwise, even if a lot of questions are answered there, nobody will think to look there at the start of their quest. They will just assume that it's not there and will ask you instead.\nIf that's the case, then what documentation is really doing is hurting you, because you're spending time writing docs that nobody ends up using, and you're still getting pinged about things when your answer is just \"read the docs.\"\nMake no mistake, an IM and a link which might take 10 seconds from start to end can be a major productivity killer if you're trying to get real work done. I have the science to prove it! That's why your docs need to be so good that people just assume that their answer is there and is up to date, because otherwise your productivity is getting killed just by people asking you things and you replying \"it's in the docs.\"\nSo if you're going with documentation as the main source of answers, you better work really freaking hard to make sure that the documentation is superb, or else you're just wasting your time.\nAnd remember, if you happen to be on the quest for Agility, then it's right there in the Agile Manifesto:\nDelegating a Question Answerer..er\nAnother common strategy is to select someone to be online and available for assistance when you're not, so that you can get some heads down time in on a regular basis during working hours without anyone else spinning their wheels needing help.\nThis is great if there's a good person on the project for that role. And that's often a big \"if\". It needs to be a developer (for coding questions), it needs to be someone who has a sufficiently high birds eye view of the project to know where all the major pieces are and who's working on what, and it needs to be someone who's responsive and knows what the heck they're talking about.\nOften, the only person who fits that description is the tech lead, since most medium to large projects are big enough that nobody knows all the pieces unless he or she makes a conscious effort to, which is something that devs working on specific features aren't usually viewing as a high priority.\nSo if this is the route you'd like to take, some planning is required to make sure the person has time budgeted for studying up on the big picture and providing dev support, and that you have a good person for that role in the project in the first place. I didn't do that.\nDelegating Your Actual Work\nIf nobody fits the bill to give you some relief from questions/conversations for a couple hours a day, then maybe someone can give you relief at the other end of the work streams, by taking some of your actual work off your hands.\nThis is difficult for a different set of reasons. It's typically easier to find a dev who would be good in this role, but it's a harder sell. It's easy to ask someone \"can you be available for questions for a couple hours a day while I get some heads down time?\" but it's a lot more to ask of someone if you say \"can you take 10 hours worth of tickets off my plate this week, in addition to your already full schedule?\"\nEven though they might have spent 10 hours giving feedback and helping others, so the time spent is the same, it just sounds like a bigger request, and the last thing Tech Lead Bill wants to be doing is asking their devs to work overtime to help out Bill with his own work.\nSo bottom line on this one is that you have to tread carefully. Try to pick someone who has a light load or even better, plan so that that person has a light load.\nAs much as we all hate to admit it, there's often a point in the project when you have to help others by day and get crap done by night, and that's just what has to happen if you're going to hit a deadline. I've found that, while of course we all do all that's in our power to avoid that, it's best to assume it will happen at some point, and to prepare for the worst.\nThis means doing a few things:\nFigure out a caffeinated drink that you like and that helps you be productive without getting the nervous shimmy shimmy shakes. If you're not a coffee person, check out some high-energy Tea or Mate or maybe just a good old Red Bull.\nWork at night in the same place that you work during the day, if possible. If not, then find a brightly lit room with an actual desk. Do not, under any circumstances, work in bed or low light, unless you want to spend the next few hours falling asleep or feeling grump that you're not falling asleep.\nStop wasting time at a computer on insignificant crap. Point time wasting sites like Reddit and HN to localhost in your hosts file so they're not a temptation, or check out something like StayFocusd. Remember, each minute that you spend doing nothing is one less minute of sleep you're going to get.\nExperiment with early rising instead of late bedtimes. I've found that I'm a lot more productive if I wake up at 3am than if I stay up until 3am, because I'm not spending the whole time thinking \"Ok, as soon as this is done I can go to sleep\" which is a pretty terrible frame of mind for building a quality product.\nOnly turn on IMs at night in case of emergency. Yes, I know that by like 1am you're wondering if other people still exist in the world, and you have a huge, undeniable urge to send a random YouTube video to the one guy you know who lives 8 timezones away from you. But you have to fight it--a sleepy late night IM session can be an hour long ramblefest that keeps you from your bed.\nChoosers can't be beggars\nSo you have a few options, and it's up to you (and your team, and your project's needs, and your company processes, and your 3rd grade teacher) to choose the appropriate one.\nOnce that happens, it's important to try really really hard to stick with it. If you decide to rely on docs heavily but fail to update them early and often, then begging your team to refer to them isn't going to earn their trust in them. If you prioritize doing your own assigned work over helping others, then begging your team to work harder to get questions answered and blockers resolved quickly won't do you much good, because you already made that sacrifice.\nChoose once, and choose wisely. And if you forget to choose wisely, then choose again!",

My thoughts are with his family.\"\nFormer Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott said: \"The people of Sheffield have lost a real champion in Harry Harpham. From Darnall to Westminster he spoke for them. A voice silenced too soon.\"\nThe MP's last Commons speech was just two weeks ago when he took David Cameron to task over the loss of 100 jobs at Sheffield Forgemasters.\nProud socialist: Harry Harpham spent a year on strike as a deep coal miner (Image: Lynne Cameron/PA Wire)\nHe told MPs: \"We have had lots of warm words and hand-wringing and some crocodile tears from the Prime Minister and Ministers in this Chamber about the tsunami of job losses across the steel industry.\n\"Can he tell me when he will actually do something?\"\nDescribed as a \"proud socialist\" in a tribute by party members, Mr Harpham was an anti-Apartheid campaigner and miner who spent a whole year on strike at Clipstone Colliery in Nottinghamshire.\nHe moved to Sheffield in 1985 and remained there for the rest of his life, serving as the deputy leader of Sheffield City Council before being elected to Parliament for the first time last May.\nMiners' strike 30 years on: Diary of Nottinghamshire picket Dennis Skinner labelled ''tower of strength''\nMr Harpham left school to go straight down the pit, but went to a Sheffield college as a mature student and later graduated from the city's university.\nA statement on his Facebook page said: \"It is with incredible sadness we announce that Harry Harpham MP today lost his fight with cancer.\n\"A former miner \u2013 maybe the final deep coal miner ever to enter parliament \u2013 Harry was fiercely proud of his union roots.\n\"He was an NUM man throughout the miners\u2019 strike and stood firm for a full year at his Nottinghamshire pit even though many others crossed the picket line, something Harry would never have done.\n\"He put his background in energy to good use when he was promoted to the role of Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Shadow Energy and Climate Change Secretary.\n\"A proud socialist who had campaigned against apartheid in his younger years, Harry will be greatly missed in Sheffield and in Westminster.\"\nThe MP's death will trigger a by-election in his seat, which he won with 57% of the vote.\nMr Harpham leaves his wife Gill, children Annie, Kieron, Dan, Emily and Victoria and granddaughter Layla Grace.\nMr Corbyn's tribute in full said: \"The news of the death of Harry Harpham is extremely sad and I send my deepest condolences to his family.\nPassionate: Harry Harpham's final speech in Parliament taking David Cameron to task\n\"Harry was a proud socialist who had also been a proud miner.\n\"He was dedicated to justice for working people and despite the undoubted hardship that his support for the miners\u2019 strike would have caused him, as it did many thousands of miners, Harry recently told me he would have done it all again.\n\"Harry was able to use his background and experience in energy to serve Labour in the Shadow Department for Energy and Climate Change and I was proud that he agreed to serve in our team.\n\"To the very end he was fighting for working people in parliament.

The Dodgers moved their Spring Training headquarters to Glendale, Ariz., in 2009.\nHistoric Dodgertown now hosts The Umpire School, created by Minor League Baseball, as well as numerous visiting amateur and collegiate sports teams. O'Malley leases the facility from Indian River County with his sister, Terry Seidler, and former Dodgers Hideo Nomo and Chan Ho Park.",

        "raw_content": "Hip tendinitis lands Rasmus on 10-day DL\nOF Peterson selected from Triple-A Durham\nST. PETERSBURG -- The Rays have placed Colby Rasmus on the 10-day disabled list (retroactive to Monday) with left hip tendinitis.\nOutfielder Shane Peterson was selected from Triple-A Durham to take the veteran outfielder's spot on the active roster, bringing the 40-man roster to its full capacity.\n\"Just got a little tendinitis in there,\" Rasmus said. \"[I] talked to the doctors, and just with the intense nature of the beast that is baseball ... so I'm going to try and get it calmed down and look at figuring out how to make the pain go away.\"\nRasmus, who has not played since Sunday, was asked if he was optimistic the 10-day stint on the DL would be enough to get him back on the field.\n\"I am, for sure,\" Rasmus said. \"... [I'll] try to get back as quick as I can. [I] just have tendinitis. It's something that occurs with the surgery. I had tendinitis in Spring Training, and it just kind of came back and jumped up on me when I stole a couple of bases.\n\"So it's something I played through, and then playing through it and trying to be tough ended up making it a little worse. I want to try and make sure I'm around for the rest of the season and not miss a couple of weeks or a month with something I could sit out a couple of days for to get going if I can.\"\nRays manager Kevin Cash echoed Rasmus' sentiments.\n\"We need Colby for the long run here,\" Cash said. \"He's performed really well for us here, both offensively and defensively. [We] want to clean this thing up to where he's feeling good.\"\nIn Peterson's earlier stint with the Rays, he hit .263 with a home run and six RBIs.\nVideo: TB@BAL: Peterson plates two with double to right\n\"Shane Peterson played well for us,\" Cash said. \"He played good defense. Got some big hits for us. So we're excited to have him back up here to fill in for that time. And he's going to get to play.\"\nThe Rays got good news on Matt Duffy's progress. The shortstop had a procedure done in which a calcium deposit the size of a pea was removed from the area in his heel where he's been experiencing pain while trying to come back from heel surgery.\n\"We're hoping that is what's been causing all the irritation,\" Cash said, \"because it was taken right from the spot where he's had most of his pain.\n\"I think [head athletic trainer] Ron Porterfield and the doctors think that once the stitches heal up, that he might see a quick turnaround. So we're being cautiously optimistic about that.\"\nCatcher Wilson Ramos and right-hander Brad Boxberger each said they had completed their rehab assignments, so it's likely both will be activated from the DL this weekend.\nRead more: Tampa Bay Rays, Colby Rasmus",

        "raw_content": "'Nova' explores D-Day from the ocean's depths\n'D-Day: Sunken Secrets' locates the wrecks of hundreds of ships and offers a different perspective on why the invasion succeeded.\nJust before the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion on June 6, PBS' \"Nova\" will debut the new documentary \"D-Day's Sunken Secrets\" on May 28, following an expedition to locate the wrecks of the ships that were so instrumental in the battle to better understand what happened and why.\n\"There's three things we're doing in the show,\" says writer, producer and director Doug Hamilton. \"We're talking about the history of the day, how it unfolded. We're talking about the engineering story and what it took to prepare the troops for whatever their particular action was, whether that be the landing crafts or these floating tanks or the gliders that went in, so you get a bit of that back story. Maybe a third of the show is that. Then a third of the show is the expedition. What 'Nova' really wanted to do in this was not just tell the history of what happened, but to participate in a way of seeing this battle more actively and to be a part of adding value to our understanding of what happened on D\u2011Day, and hopefully that's what the show will do. But it's a mix of chronology as well as what we find on this expedition.\"\n\"We follow a team surveying the seabed on the Normandy coast using divers, submersibles, and advanced sonar. What they see are the remains of hundreds of ships that were transporting men and equipment to support the invasion,\" continues Paula Apsell, series senior executive producer for \"Nova.\" \"It's a chance to explore the feats of engineering and logistics that made this invasion possible and paved the way for World War II to end. And it is a last opportunity to bring elderly veterans back to search for their lost ships and pay tribute to those who fought and fell beside them.\"\nOne of those veterans is Bill Allen, who served as a medic in WWII and whose ship, LST (523), sank off Omaha Beach on its fourth crossing of the English Channel. As part of the expedition, he descended in a mini-sub to see the wreckage of his ship. \"I had never been in a submarine. It was very tight. The diameter of the sub must have been six or seven feet at the most. But I wanted to see my ship, and I was willing to pay the price. When we came up, we had been down an hour and 15 minutes. But it was very exciting. It had a great meaning to me. I had no fear because I was interested in seeing what was left of my ship,\" one of about 400 wrecks that have been located so far.\n\"We surveyed 500 square kilometers, which is a 10\u2011kilometer\u2011wide area by 50, and we got 400 targets, and we started off with basically 50 to 70 targets,\" says Sylvain Pascaud, an underwater cinematographer who served as director of operations for the D\u2011Day expedition. \"From a technical standpoint, finding and mapping things underwater is still a very difficult endeavor,\" he emphasizes. \"It's probably easier to find an iPhone in China than to know exactly where a wreck is. Just creating this map is not something automatic. It's something we had to be very creative about. It's a combination of high-tech and low-tech, and it took us 30 days.\"\nInformation supplied by fisherman, the British Royal Navy, and the French Navy helped in building that map and identifying wrecks. \"Then we tried to match our map with the past, and that's how we found a 40 percent difference and how the wrecks basically were collapsing on themselves and disappearing in the sand,\" says Pascaud.\n\"A lot of these D\u2011Day wrecks are decaying so much faster,\" adds Hamilton. \"In 50 years, they're going to be gone. So it's not only surprising what they're finding, but it's surprising that this incredible history is disappearing and we haven't really explored it that carefully.\"\nThe documentary also touches on the role weather, tides, ocean currents and topography played in the D-Day invasion. \"They were working against the tides, and the currents in this region can be very dangerous, and if you try to fight everything, you won't succeed,\" Pascaud points out. \"When you look at what went on in the planning, one of the first steps was to understand the geography there,\" Hamilton continues. \"It's a very unique part of the world. The English Channel has these incredible tidal ranges \u2014 25 feet twice a day. Understanding the role that geography played in this invasion is an important part of the story.\"\nThese and other factors nearly sunk the operation \u2014 no pun intended. \u201cI make the argument that we should have lost,\u201d says Adrian Lewis, professor of history at the University of Kansas, retired U.S. Army major, and author of \"Omaha Beach: A Flawed Victory.\" \"It's almost a miracle that we didn't lose Omaha Beach, and if you take a look at German reports coming in, they thought they were winning, and they were.\"\n\"I think they knew the casualties were going to be extremely heavy,\" Allen says of the Allied forces. \"Ships were lost. Planes were lost. Many lives were lost. That's the reason we kept taking troops and supplies in, to replace those that had been lost, and it was just a continual thing, bringing in more reinforcements, and that was what won it.\"\nWhile movies like \"Saving Private Ryan\" \"focus on the incredible heroism at that time,\" Hamilton says that the documentary offers a different perspective on D-Day. \"Seeing all the wrecks that are out there gives us an understanding of how it actually transpired. A lot of the information that exists is wrong,\" he notes. \"Sylvain and his team are correcting the historical record, and we\u2019ve been able to show that.\"\n4 useful things created by war\n10 ways animals have served the military\n6 incredible places where the ocean glows\nRelated topics: TV Shows\nJust before the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion on June 6, PBS' \"Nova\" will debut the new documentary \"D-Day's Sunken Secrets.\"",

        "raw_content": "Home > News > Novomatic Completes Ainsworth Acquisition\nSuccessful online and land-based gaming group Novomatic recently announced that it would be purchasing Australian gaming giant Ainsworth in a massive takeover deal. Now that the necessary regulatory process has finally been completed, Novomatic has revealed that the acquisition has now been completed, giving it the exclusive rights to all of Ainsworth\u2019s products.\nThe large-scale purchase has been approved by all of the parties involved, including gambling regulators in Australia itself and also the Nevada Gaming Commission. Novomatic will now acquire a 52% controlling share in Ainsworth, which will see the latter firm beginning its operations under the Novomatic brand umbrella.\nThe purchase has also prompted the former director of Ainsworth, Len Ainsworth, to resign from his long-time post at the company to allow new leadership to take control. However, Ainsworth will still remain part of his company for the coming year under the terms of the acquisition deal.\nBig Steps For Novomatic\u2019s Growth\nThis is a big step for the Swedish gaming firm, which has plans to increase its market share in various regulated jurisdictions by a tenth by the year 2023. Novomatic will inherit all of Ainsworth\u2019s proprietary casino games, software and products under the deal, which will significantly bolster its own growing portfolio of gaming-related products.\nCommenting on the acquisition, Chairman of Novomatic Harald Neumann noted that compliance investigations have now been completed, and were in his words \u2018extremely thorough\u2019. He continued to reveal that these assessments included all of Novomatic AG\u2019s corporate segments to ensure utmost compliance from the firm.\nFirm to Grow Its US Market Share\nNeumann noted that his company\u2019s shares in Ainsworth are of crucial strategic value to Novomatic and its future growth. He said that the ultimate joint plan for his firm is to increase its US market share to at least 10% within the next five years, with room for further expansion as Novomatic\u2019s brands and products take hold in North America.\nThe Chairman also revealed Novomatic\u2019s long term strategies in his statement, noting that the group plans to become a global market leader in the areas of both land-based and online gaming. The acquisition of Australia\u2019s Ainsworth will no doubt be a valuable step towards this goal, giving Novomatic an even wider range of products and services with which it can win over brand new target markets across the globe.\nSource links: https://www.casinolistings.com/news/2018/01/novomatic-finishes-acquisition-of-ainsworth",

Relatives you haven\u2019t seen since last year will once again be in your presence, asking about subjects you prefer to avoid at all costs. Plus that one creepy uncle will be trying to get you to buy into his totally-not-a-pyramid-scheme again.\nOn top of all this, you will be expected to buy gifts for everyone. Yes, chocolates and aftershave will work in most cases, but then there is always that one relative. The one that obsesses over odd gimmicks and gadgets, and keeps bringing up the latest technology that you couldn\u2019t care less about. Yes, him. He\u2019ll also need a gift, and you don\u2019t know where to start.\nDon\u2019t worry; we\u2019ve got your back. Take a look at some of the best gift ideas for technology-obsessed friends and family.\nSegway Ninebot One Wheel\nYou\u2019ll have to really love your tech junkie friend to get them one of these, but good gravy will they love you to the end of time. This one-wheeled mini-scooter is just about the coolest thing anyone could be seen on, riding down the block.\nYes, it only has a negligible speed of 14 miles per hour, but it also has one self-balancing wheel, and looks so futuristic it could make a person swear they were in a scene from Back to the Future 2.\nIt costs a whopping $818, but did we mention it\u2019s just about the coolest thing you\u2019ll ever see?\nAll right, let\u2019s just face it. You don\u2019t need to be tech obsessed to know that this is a pretty incredible product. It fits in your pocket and can be extracted at any time to charge a laptop, smartphone and tablet. At the same time. Plus, yes, if you\u2019re wondering, it works via USB ports.\nVirtually everyone has a use for this little gizmo, and at a fairly reasonable price of $99 it may well be landing up under the Christmas tree in many homes across the world. Heck, sign us up, we\u2019ll take two.\nAnother super impressive little gadget, the Narrative Clip attaches to clothing for hands free video recording. The image quality isn\u2019t especially mind blowing at 5 megapixels, but the 30-hour battery life and 8-gigabyte storage are decent. Plus, there is a GPS, accelerometer and magnetometer built in. What those last two features are useful for we don\u2019t know, but a tech friend will surely be impressed.\nYou might need to spend some time at a casino aiming for a jackpot win if you want to buy this little gadget, as it comes in at a somewhat pricey $149, but it\u2019s also a sure winner.\nNASA Sleep Promoting LED Light Bulb\nNASA developed this light bulb in order to help astronauts get some sleep on space stations. Apparently the bulb stimulates melatonin production, which in some way is excellent for sleeping. We don\u2019t know how the science behind it works, but the word NASA is right there in the title, which is enough to make any tech junkie friend shriek in glee.\n$59.99 is pricey for a light bulb, but it is a very fancy looking one, with great benefits- so splash out and spoil someone!\nLast but not least, a neat little tech gift for a very affordable price. Plug it into a TV\u2019s HDMI, connect to it wirelessly via a phone and see the phone screen on your TV. Neat, useful and cheap.\nIt\u2019s only $35, and is sure to be appreciated by just about anyone. Also, it is something we\u2019d accept, if into buying gifts for complete strangers.\nhttps://www.brostrick.com/\nhttps://www.bestproducts.com/",

By the time you get to the 4th or 5th why, you will likely be looking squarely at management practices.\nThis methodology is closely related to the Cause & Effect (Fishbone) diagram, and can be used to complement the analysis necessary to complete a Cause & Effect diagram.\nHere is a real world example from a kitchen range manufacturer:\nThere is too much work in process inventory, yet we never seem to have the right parts.\nThe enameling process is unpredictable, and the press room does not respond quickly enough.\nIt takes them too long to make a changeover between parts, so the lot sizes are too big, and often the wrong parts.\nMany of the stamping dies make several different parts, and must be reconfigured in the tool room between runs, which takes as long as eight hours.\nThe original project management team had cost overruns on the building site work, so they skimped on the number of dies - they traded dedicated dies and small lot sizes for high work-in-process (which was not measured by their project budget).\nRoot Cause: Company management did not understand Lean manufacturing, and did not set appropriate project targets when the plant was launched. It is almost universally true that by the time you ask why five times, it is clear that the problem had its origins in management.\nAlthough the 5-Why problem solving technique has been popularized by the Japanese, this common-sense concept has been around for quite some time:\nBenjamin Franklin's 5-Why Analysis:\nFor want of a nail a shoe was lost,\nfor want of a shoe a horse was lost,\nfor want of a horse a rider was lost,\nfor want of a rider an army was lost,\nfor want of an army a battle was lost,\nfor want of a battle the war was lost,\nfor want of the war the kingdom was lost,\nand all for the want of a little horseshoe nail.\nThe text above is a common extension of the original theme from Poor Richard's Almanac\nA Japanese transplant automobile manufacturer uses a hybrid form that includes a trend chart and pareto chart to guide the 5-Why thinking of its problem-solving teams. On one piece of paper, the form captures historical data, problem priorities, root cause analysis, corrective action, and verification. An example of the form is shown below with a hypothetical example from an appliance manufacturer.\nDownload MS Excel Template Of The Hybrid 5-Why Form\n5-Why analysis is more than just an iterative process or a simple question asking activity. The purpose behind a 5-why analysis is to get the right people in the room discussing all of the possible root causes of a given defect in a process.\nMany times teams will stop once a reason for a defect has been identified. These conclusions often do not get to the root cause. A disciplined 5-why approach will push teams to think outside the box and reach a root cause where the team can actually make a postive difference in the problem, instead of treating symptoms.\nNeed a tool with a 5-Why template and more?",

        "raw_content": "Interviews with renowned British Artistic Directors\nPark Theatre, Jez Bond: \u201cTheatres have to come up with novel ways to make money.\u201d\nJez Bond, Artistic Director of Park Theatre, sits hunched on the sofa, twiddling his hair. In a pink hoodie and red Puma trainers, he looks younger than his thirty-nine years. His voice is soft but street-casual, but what stands out is the cheeky smile; which make you notice his sparkly eyes and his determination not to take himself too seriously.\nJez Bond \u2013 \u00a9 Piers Foley Photography\nIn a year that\u2019s seen him direct Ian McKellen and continue to build Park\u2019s reputation as an exciting home for new plays and celebrated transfers, Bond is also knackered. \u201cI haven\u2019t slept much because I\u2019ve got a little baby at home\u201d, he says.\nPark Theatre opened in 2013 in London\u2019s Finsbury Park. Described as \u201ca neighbourhood theatre with global ambition,\u201d it offers a mixed program of new writing, classics and revivals. As well as the main auditorium (Park200), the building includes a studio theatre (Park90), a rehearsal space and a buzzing Caf\u00e9 Bar. Is it true that the theatre is part of a housing development?\n\u201cSure, it\u2019s 560 luxury apartments and a little theatre in the basement\u2026\u201d Bond grins, \u201cHa! That would be nice! No; that\u2019s fake news. Essentially, it\u2019s the other way around. We wanted to build a theatre and discovered a building that was a former office in this incredible area. We raised the money to buy the building\u2026 and to raise the money for the theatre we spoke to Islington Council to add two storeys to the front of the building: two 1-beds and one 2-bedroom flat. That gave us a million into the pot. We have to raise \u00a3250,000 a year to keep our doors open,\u201d he adds.\nWe talk about the recent Park Theatre fundraiser starring Sir Ian McKellen. Titled Shakespeare, Tolkien, Others & You, the show offered audiences the chance to get up close with Gandalf. How was it directing a legend?\n\u201cAbsolutely incredible \u2013 he\u2019s a work-horse and the most incredibly generous man. He did ten shows in a week and after every single show he either took thirty people out to dinner or did the signings and selfies. Every single interval \u2013 he was entertaining 6-8 people with private drinks in his dressing room.\u201d Bond beams. \u201cHe was a joy to work with.\u201d\nI ask him teasingly if it\u2019s true that he sold McKellen-branded wine at the event. His eyes widen. \u201cThe merchandising was great. We had an excellent sponsor in the form of Tikve\u0161 wines from Macedonia, who provided 1,800 bottles of special edition McKellen-branded wine, some of which were given away as part of the experience people bought, and some of which were sold independently on the night,\u201d he says. Amazing.\nAnyone feeling snippy about Bond\u2019s vision, or his ambition, would do well to celebrate his savvy approach. \u201cIt\u2019s fair to say the problem with the arts is that there is not enough support. We need a quarter of a million to keep the doors open without producing a show. Theatres have to come up with novel ways to make money. The government keeps saying \u2018theatres have to be more entrepreneurial\u2019 and what people don\u2019t realise is, it costs a lot of money to fundraise. If you look at the most successful \u2013 the Donmar, NT or the Almeida \u2013 they have between 5-10 people in their development department \u2013 that\u2019s a salary bill of what, \u00a3300,000? The government makes things harder with Gift Aid legislation tightening \u2013 so we are able to claim only a very small proportion of Gift Aid on the Ian McKellen money.\u201d\nHe is not too thrilled with the changes in legislation. \u201cNormally you can contact someone to fundraise \u2013 now you have to know that they\u2019ve said you\u2019re allowed to contact them,\u201d he explains. \u201cIf we do a fundraiser we need to know who is sitting at what table or in what seat. What we would usually do is look these people up or Google them so that we know: that\u2019s so-and-so or she\u2019s the chairman of that board as a conversation point.\u201d But new privacy laws are making this impossible.\nOn the plus side, he says, it will stop the companies cold-calling vulnerable people selling double-glazing that they don\u2019t need. \u201cBut on the other hand it will impede theatres and arts charities who are working with engaged people who want to be involved and just sometimes need a bit of a nudge. In order to raise the money to keep affordable theatre or give opportunities to the community you have to be a bit capitalist,\u201d he admits. \u201cThe people who paid for drinks with McKellen offset open dress rehearsals for students, engagement with Age UK and communities from the local council estate experiencing theatre for the very first time.\u201d\nBond\u2019s own taste in theatre is straightforward: \u201cI love well-made plays \u2013 ideally a linear narrative with a beginning, middle and an end. I like story; tell me a good story and I\u2019ll stay.\u201d\nHow conscious is he about equal gender representation on Park Theatre\u2019s stages? \u201cThere are only a limited number of plays which we can afford to produce, we have conversations with guest producers and we really try and ensure diversity,\u201d he says. \u201cThis season has ended up less female-focused in Park200 as we would have liked but we have balanced this by being more female-focused in Park90. In the next season we have some really good female led stories.\u201d\nWe turn to the big show of the recently announced 2018 season, Pressure, which features his secret weapon: David Haig. \u201cHe\u2019s the man! David has written Pressure and he is in it. It was originally at Chichester and so this is the London premiere. I read the play and said we\u2019d love to do it. It should be great,\u201d Bond says.\nDavid Haig in Pressure (Runs at Park200 from 28 Mar until 28 Apr 2018)\nHow does he get such an array of big-name stars to perform at Park Theatre? Is it blackmail? He laughs. \u201cWell, there\u2019s a lot of skeletons in a lot of closets and if you\u2019ve got the key\u2026. Most of the closets are located in the housing development. They\u2019re in the basement.\u201d He smiles sweetly. \u201cI\u2019m joking.\u201d Or is he?\nPark Theatre\u2019s 2018 Season is on sale now\nhttps://www.mrcarlwoodward.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/134E63F4-6FFC-4C16-BC9E-8D560C2FB33A-e1512396104970.jpeg 394 700 Theatre M https://www.mrcarlwoodward.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/new-logo-img-300x27.png Theatre M2017-12-04 06:27:062018-10-30 00:51:16Park Theatre, Jez Bond: \"Theatres have to come up with novel ways to make money.\"\nHeadlong\u2019s Jeremy Herrin: \u201cMen in positions of power certainly have to be conscious of the privilege their gender gives them.\u201d\nHeadlong artistic director Jeremy Herrin slopes into our meeting at the Southbank Canteen looking like a man who has just popped to the shops. I ask if he can tell me what is in the bag. \u201cNo,\u201d he says drolly.\n\u201cIt\u2019s for a particular project that I can\u2019t talk about\u2026 So, like the great journalist that you are -you\u2019ve ferreted out the story and I can\u2019t talk about it. I just can\u2019t.\u201d\nThis has been another ripe year for Herrin; a west end transfer of James Graham\u2019s This House and a collaboration with the Michael Grandage Company for Labour of Love. A Broadway transfer & UK Tour of People, Places & Things. He also directed Jack Thorne\u2019s Junkyard at Bristol Old Vic and The House They Grew Up In, at Chichester.\nWe talk about Sarah Lancashire pulling out of the world premiere of Labour of Love on doctor\u2019s advice \u2013 during rehearsals. \u201cWhen you consider the terrifying challenge of losing Sarah to illness, then you could say we really landed on our feet to get the magic Tamsin Greig,\u201d he says.\nMartin Freeman & Tamsin Greig in Labour of Love\n\u201cI am really delighted with how it\u2019s all worked out. The commercial pressure when producing in the West End is enormous. Actors fall away because of certain problems but Labour of Love is very much an ensemble and a great company, so we survived. Tamsin & Martin are on stage at all times. You could argue that Jean is the emotional heart of the story so it was challenging to lose Sarah but we overcame it.\u201d\nEarlier this summer, DC Moore\u2019s play Common was critically mauled and opened to terrible reviews at the National\u2019s Olivier theatre. I ask how he feels about the show, a few months on.\n\u201cWhat I felt about Common at the end of an undoubtedly challenging experience was that it was worth a go; it simply didn\u2019t come together as a show,\u201d he explains. \u201cThat was obvious as soon as we put it in front of audience. I\u2019m sure it would have been less exposed in another space. It\u2019s easier to learn a lot on the ones that don\u2019t entirely work. If it had happened earlier in my career then it may have upset me more.\u201d Does critical seal of approval still matter?\nAnn Marie-Duff in Common\n\u201cI\u2019ve directed shows that haven\u2019t worked and yet have got really good reviews \u2013 I\u2019ve directed shows that have worked but have got really bad reviews and I\u2019ve directed shows that haven\u2019t worked that got bad reviews,\u201d says Herrin.\n\u201cJust because a show gets bad reviews doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s a bad show. We\u2019re in hock with the critical community; we\u2019ve made a deal, which is we get free publicity but we dance the dance and we gamble that they will like the shows well enough to shout about them. Common, in that way sort of fell through the gap\u2026 The advice to pass on, if there is any, is to be absolutely certain about where you get your validation from.\u201d\nHe continues: \u201cI\u2019m very clear about my relationship with my work, I know better than anyone how successful it is or not. Well before press night, I\u2019d already worked out that Common wasn\u2019t hitting the target. There is that phrase: \u2018success has many fathers, failure is an orphan\u2019 that\u2019s so true,\u201d he says.\nHe is, though, very clear about his craft: \u201cDirecting is finding a language of performance \u2013 finding a bridge between an audience and a dramatic work. Allowing that synthesis to create something completely new,\u201d he says.\n\u201cSometimes the most invisible bit of directing is the most important. Beginning by David Eldridge is brilliantly directed \u2013 I loved it. Apart from a couple of sound cues \u2013 I couldn\u2019t see Polly\u2019s (Findlay) hand in it. Obviously, a design process had taken place and really detailed character work but I wasn\u2019t aware of any direction \u2013 that is sometimes the best sort of directing.\u201d\nJeremy inherited Headlong from Rupert Goold, now artistic director of the Almeida. Coincidentally, two of James Grahams plays (Labour of Love & Ink) are playing on St Martin\u2019s Lane \u2013 directed by both men. Herrin is a bit older than Goold, I ask if they have a competitive relationship. \u201cAre we friends? We\u2019re really friendly,\u201d he says.\n\u201cI\u2019m not really close to him and we don\u2019t get in touch much, just every now and again. I have a lot of respect for him. I don\u2019t feel like I\u2019m competitive with him because I feel like what we do is very different.\u201d\n\u201cI have to admit that when I watched Ink I thought about what my production of it would be like because James is a writer that I was lucky enough to get hold of first. I just did This House, so Ink is like a little brother or sister to This House,\u201d he decides.\nHeadlong has no venue (it is based in a small office in Waterloo) but partners with theatres around the country and internationally working with regional venues, and brings exciting new plays to cities all around the country. \u201cThe first thing you realise when you run a touring company is how wide the economic gap is between London and the regions,\u201d he says.\n\u201cIn London there seems to be plenty of people with plenty of money willing to spend it on plays. In the regions it can be more challenging, even with enlightened policies and subsidised ticket prices. What\u2019s initially galling, and ultimately inspiring is the fact that people go to the theatre at all. My feeling is that when they do, the work needs to be of the highest possible quality and as meaningful as we can make it. That\u2019s where Headlong comes in. It\u2019s our mission to provide that.\u201d\nWhat are the biggest challenges of leading a touring company in the current climate? \u201cWhen we tour shows we are basically spending our subsidy. It\u2019s a question of how much we are going to lose. So, PPT on the UK Tour is doing really well \u2013 creatively, it does what I want it to do \u2013 which is that it makes an argument for what the medium of theatre is \u2013 but that costs a fortune because it\u2019s an ambitious and technically daring show,\u201d he says.\nThere are moments in our conversation where he loses me completely. It is almost as if he talks the way he makes theatre happen \u2013 inspired, dynamic, associative and extremely concise. But he also has a rare ability to return to ground and answer questions unflinchingly.\nWhen asked about the bullying and sexual harassment crisis engulfing the industry, he responds directly. \u201cHeadlong were very pleased to sign up to the joint statement, which says there can be no place for sexual harassment in the world of theatre,\u201d he says.\n\u201cIt\u2019s true to say that there is an inherent systemic sexism in our society, and internationally, and of course that is going to filter down and become an expression of male power in every industry. Our industry happens to be theatre, male power has been expressing itself like that forever. Collectively the people (women and men) that feel that they have been victimised by this imbalance now have negotiated a safe space in which they can call it out.\u201d\nWe talk about Weinstein, Spacey and names that have come up. \u201cIt will probably be a bit turbulent for a while as stories come out and these voices are heard,\u201d says Herrin.\n\u201cMen in positions of power certainly have to be conscious of the privilege their gender gives them and it\u2019s appropriate for them to consider their behaviour and audit their past. Any human being has a certain amount of unpicking to do, to think about relationships and consider what those relationships were based on, and how power plays into it.\u201d\nIt must be hard to choose one thing that he is most proud of, so I ask what production he would most like to revisit. \u201cThis House and PPT are the most visible ones, but two from the last year that were excellent shows that haven\u2019t yet exhausted their full potential are Junkyard and The House They Grew Up In \u2013 I feel like I have unfinished business with those shows,\u201d he says, smiling.\n\u201cThe House They Grew Up In did something remarkably potent and political to that audience. There was something significant happening in that space \u2013 it really infuriated them to start with and as it went on it was really cathartic and ultimately transcendent. The audience battled with feeling for those two difficult characters and eventually Deborah\u2019s writing seduced them and they fell in love with the characters and it was a joyous and hilarious and uplifting occasion. And Junkyard was pure pleasure: a great young cast and an evening of politics, jokes and charm. It\u2019s a huge hit waiting for the right home.\u201d\nPeople Places Things is at Liverpool Playhouse and then Cambridge Arts Theatre until 25 November\nLabour of Love is at the No\u00ebl Coward theatre, London, until 2 December.

Discovered by Zubin Mehta, he launched his career in 2001 when he appeared at the helm of the Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino. He went on to became a sought-after opera conductor and a dedicated interpreter of the symphonic repertoire, and the Romantic period in particular. At this concert, he will be conducting two emblematic pieces by one of the greatest Czech conductors. Along with the endlessly engaging New World Symphony, the M\u00fcpa Budapest audience will get to enjoy the lively flow of melodies of Dvo\u0159\u00e1k's cello concerto featuring a soloist who is also already familiar to them. Franco-German cellist Nicolas Altstaedt is an outstanding musician of his generation: his 2010 concert with Gustavo Dudamel and the Vienna Philharmonic at the Lucerne Festival fell like a \"thunderclap\u201d on the international music world. Since then, he has worked together with such renowned conductors as Roger Norrington, Neville Marriner and Vladimir Ashkenazy. In 2012, Gidon Kremer named him his successor at the head of the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival, and he took over the baton from \u00c1d\u00e1m Fischer to serve as music director of the Austro-Hungarian Haydn Philharmonic two years later.\nPresented by: Hungarian National Philharmonic\n1 February 2018, Thursday\t7:30 pm \u2014 10 pm",

        "title": "Bootstrap Business: Business on a Shoestring Budget: Practical Ways To Drive Down Overhead Costs",
        "raw_content": "Business on a Shoestring Budget: Practical Ways To Drive Down Overhead Costs\nIt\u2019s perfectly possible to start a business on a shoestring budget, but you have to be careful of failure due to a lack of resources. It\u2019s crucial that you find the right balance, and are able to provide the products or services your customers want without overspending in certain areas. If you\u2019re looking to drive down your overhead costs and get ahead, here are some points to think about.\nSwitch Your Communications\nCommunication is essential in business, but it doesn\u2019t have to be via telephone. Services like Skype and Google Voice are not only more modern but will save you money on your phone bill too. Instead of picking up the phone, sending out an email or a message on your business\u2019s internal chat system could be the better option. Instead of traveling to meetings, use video software to hold video conferences instead. You will save money on lunches, travel, hotels and more. Since almost everything is done online these days, it\u2019s easy to find the right programs and prevents you running up unnecessary bills.\nOutsource Areas Of Your Business\nBusinesses can be wary of outsourcing due to the misconception that it\u2019s more expensive to do so. While there will be costs (the company working for you has to make their money somewhere) overall, it can actually be the more frugal choice. There\u2019s no need to recruit, interview, train and pay new staff, so you save money there. You can keep your office premises small as you don\u2019t have everything going on in-house which will keep your office rent down. And you don\u2019t have to pay for equipment, maintenance, and management of extra staff. It can make your life much easier as a business owner too since once different areas are outsourced they\u2019re essentially out of your hands. You ensure that everything is doing correctly, efficiently and according to the (ever changing) law, so it\u2019s win-win.\nProfessional IT consulting companies will offer IT outsourcing, you can outsource your payroll department, finance, human relations, fulfillment, marketing... the list goes on. As your company expands, consider outsourcing as opposed to hiring more employees.\nIf you\u2019re just starting out in business without a whole lot of cash, you probably don\u2019t have the budget to be buying all brand new equipment. Rent, instead of buy which will be cheaper to start off, you can always purchase your own later down the line. For example, if you\u2019re a print company you could hire a professional printer for a small amount each week as opposed to having to find thousands of dollars up front. When you\u2019re kitting out your office, look for good deals on desks, chairs and other office essentials. Again you can always replace them at a later date, but it means you don\u2019t have huge costs to fork out right away.\nPlus, while you\u2019re renting you save on maintenance costs. Since the equipment doesn\u2019t belong to you, if it develops a fault it\u2019s the hire company\u2019s job to fix it.\nWhat advice would you give to a new shoestring business in regards to overhead costs? Share your thoughts on Twitter @MikeSchiemer #BootstrapBusiness.\nI hope you enjoyed this article about being on a shoestring budget and simple ways to reduce overhead costs.\nInterested in more articles about reducing business costs?\n- 4 Startup Costs Not To Cut Corners On\n- Innovative Delivery Options To Offer Your Customers",

        "raw_content": "https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/PISD-sees-first-action-in-wind-energy-8393980.php\nPISD sees first action in wind energy\nPublished 12:47 pm CDT, Tuesday, July 28, 2015\nPISD logo\nIn some of their first ever action concerning the developing wind energy industry in Hale County, the Plainview ISD Board of Trustees unanimously voted to accept an application submitted by the Hale County Wind Project 3 LLC, which is seeking tax incentives for its 172 megawatt project expected to come on line in 2016.\nIn a special called board meeting Tuesday afternoon, the PISD board voted just to accept the application for consideration.\n\"Today was just merely taking the first step that allows a school district to move forward,\" said Fred Stormer, an attorney for the Underwood law firm.\nPrior to accepting the application, the school board unanimously voted to hire the Underwood law firm as a special counsel to provide legal services to the district concerning a limited assessed valuation agreement.\nThe Underwood group offered its services to the district regarding the wind energy projects that are developing in Hale County. Their initial fee will be $60,000, which will be reimbursed by the application fee paid by wind energy developers, like the Hale County Wind Project 3 LLC, a Tri-Global project.\nPrior to that action, the school board amended Board Policy CCG (local) concerning tax limitation agreements in the tax code known as Chapter 313.\n\"What this is, is it's an economic development tool in the state of Texas that was put in to place back in the early 2000s. It's called Chapter 313,\" said Melinda Miller, president of Miller Wind and Renewable Energy.\nMiller has been hired as a consultant for the Hale County Wind Project to handle these sorts of applications.\nMiller was on hand Tuesday on behalf of the wind development project.\n\"Basically what it is, is the state of Texas governs per school district, a particular limitation,\" Miller said.\n\"It's like a tax abatement, but it's not. A county can give a tax abatement and they can give a development 'X' amount of taxes abated a year, whereas a school district isn't allowed to do that. So what this is, is a way for the comptroller office's to govern a way to limit the valuation on the tax rolls for a period of time.\"\nMiller said the Texas Comptroller sets a limitation of reductions in appraised value per district. In PISD's case, that limitation is $30 million.\n\"Effectively, what's being requested is that the school district be limiting the appraised valued of the wind project on its books at $30 million,\" Miller said.\n\"And (Hale County Wind Project) will make sure the school district is made whole and still receives all the revenue they need to support the school district.\"\nThe wind project will eventually bring in tax revenue from 172 megawatts of wind turbines into Plainview ISD as well as 6.5 miles of transmission line that will connect them to the ERCOT power grid.\nBut on Tuesday, the HCWP LLC was just merely providing an application for the district to evaluate the project, which the district unanimously accepted.\n\"What (PISD) has done, is accept the application for consideration. At this point we will review the application, submit it to the comptroller and ask them to prepare an economic analysis,\" Stormer said.\nHe said they will send the application to the appraisal district as well.\n\"In the interim, we'll conduct a school finance forecast that will be prepared for the school district and then we can enter into some negotiations with the applicant as to what the forms and terms of the agreement might look like, should the board ultimately decide to approve it,\" Stormer said.\n\"The deadline on that is approximately 150 days from the date the comptroller determines that the application is complete.\"\nStormer said there is an ability to extend those deadlines by agreement of both parties if needed.\n\"These types of tax incentive agreements are very important to the applicants in creating a viable project, and this is just the first step in that allows that to continue. Ultimately, there is no guarantee that a project will be built at all, but we know, with all likelihood, without one of these incentive agreements they're going to devote their resources to some other area, where they can captures some of these tax incentives.\"\nIn the application, the HCWP provided a standard $80,000 check to fund the economic evaluation studies for the district to review.\nCurrently, similar applications have been submitted to Hale Center ISD and Abernathy ISD, by the Hale County wind project.\nThe wind project hopes to put the agreement into place by the end of the year as Phase I construction starts next year, and plans to wrap up by November 2016.\n\"And if the board ultimately determines it's not in district or community's best interest, they are under no obligation to approve the application or enter into an agreement,\" Stormer said.",

        "raw_content": "Davos Diplomacy Scene Not Exactly a Natural Fit for Trump\nSitting presidents typically pass on the event, as known for its flashy parties and celebrity sightings as its policy powwows and international deal-making\nIn this January 10, 2018 file photo, U.S. President Donald Trump answers reporters' questions during a news conference with Prime Minister Erna Solberg of Norway in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC.\nOne question looms as President Donald Trump packs his bags for Switzerland: How will the Diet Coke-loving nationalist fit in with the Champagne-sipping globalists he'll encounter at the World Economic Forum in Davos?\nAmerican presidents tend to shun the Davos diplomacy scene, a glitzy annual gathering at a Swiss Alpine resort that for nearly 50 years has drawn politicians, CEOs and celebrities to ponder public policy and global cooperation.\nSitting presidents typically pass on the event, as known for its flashy parties and celebrity sightings as its policy powwows and international deal-making.\nInstead, Trump will be the star attraction at this year's high-minded, invitation-only summit. A real estate executive turned reality TV star who has embraced nationalism and railed against international trade practices, Trump doesn't seem like a natural fit. But with a government shutdown averted, Trump is packing up much of his Cabinet and his \"America First\" message and heading overseas.\n\"We'll be talking about investing in the United States again,\" Trump said Tuesday, as he signed new tariffs that could draw criticism from the Davos crowd.\nThe last sitting U.S. president to attend the summit was Bill Clinton in 2000. Barack Obama, George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush all opted out. Ronald Reagan appeared via video link.\nJust how Trump approaches the gathering is the subject of feverish speculation as attendees try to game out what Trump will say in his remarks and whom he may meet with on the sidelines. Longtime attendees stressed that he might not find the warmest response among those who favor global trade and have been rattled by his rise to power.\n\"It's a bit of a puzzle,\" said Nariman Behravesh, chief economist of IHS Markit. \"First of all, he's going into a situation where the audience will not be that friendly.\"\nTrump leaves Washington Wednesday and will be in Switzerland Thursday and Friday. He plans to meet with British Prime Minister Theresa May, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Rwandan President Paul Kagame and Swiss President Alain Berset. He will also attend a reception in his honor, host a dinner for European executives and deliver a keynote address.\nTop economic adviser Gary Cohn says Trump will tell the crowd that \"America is open for business,\" highlighting the booming economy while stressing the need for \"fair and reciprocal\" trade practices.\nTrump decided to make the move after some encouragement from Vice President Mike Pence and French President Emmanuel Macron, said a White House official, who wasn't authorized to publicly discuss internal deliberations and spoke on condition of anonymity.\nHe's likely to get a different response than Clinton did 18 years ago.\nA champion of global trade, Clinton urged world leaders to consider workers and poorer nations in his 2000 address, saying, \"Don't leave the little guys out.\" He has frequented the meeting ever since, receiving a warm reception. His former vice president, Al Gore, an environmental activist, is scheduled to attend this year.\nTop aides have typically attended even when the president did not. Vice President Joe Biden appeared on behalf of the Obama administration last year, and Vice President Dick Cheney attended for George W. Bush.\nPoliticians aren't the only draw at Davos. In recent years, celebrity attendees have become part of the tableau, with Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Goldie Hawn and Bono among the superstar visitors. In 2006, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt attended panel discussions trailed by packs of photographers.\nThis year, Elton John and Cate Blanchett already have grabbed Davos headlines.\nTrump has not attended before. Said Bremmer, \"This is not Trump's crowd.\"\nEven though Trump hasn't been there, his political rise \u2014 driven by nationalist rhetoric \u2014 has dominated the conversation in recent years.\n\"I remember two years ago, every meeting at Davos, whatever it was about, would end with the theme that Trump could never be elected president,\" said Harvard University economist Kenneth Rogoff. \"For him, I suspect this is a victory lap.\"\nLast year, Biden appeared at Davos in the final days of the Obama administration and used his remarks to issue a veiled criticism of Trump, calling on Europe and the United States to defend the \"liberal\" world order, decrying a growing impulse in the West toward isolation and building walls.\nAlso sending a message to Trump last year was Chinese President Xi Jinping, who cast his country as a champion of free trade and stability, saying, \"Whether you like it or not, the global economy is the big ocean that you cannot escape from.\"\nTrump may be looking to push back on those messages this year.\nLast time, the crowd heard from Trump ally Anthony Scaramucci, the financier who briefly served as Trump's communications director over the summer. Scaramucci \u2014 known at Davos for throwing wine-tasting parties \u2014 sought to explain Trump's governing plans to an anxious audience.\nHe insisted the administration \"did not want to have a trade war,\" predicted that Trump's inaugural address would be \"very Reaganesque,\" and said, \"Directionally, this is a super compassionate man.\"\nBut he also acknowledged the concerns about the incoming president.\nScaramucci joked, \"This is my 10th year here, but it is my first year here with a food taster.\"",

Warren Hits Campaign Trail With Visit to Iowa\nhttp://www.nbcwashington.com/news/politics/Elizabeth-Warren-Donald-Trump-505637751.html\nAs an official candidate for the presidency, the senator made a bold prediction about the current president's future. (Published Sunday, Feb. 10, 2019)\nBack in Iowa as a full-fledged presidential candidate, Democrat Elizabeth Warren took aim at President Donald Trump on Sunday, saying he \"may not even be a free person\" by next year's election.\nWarren emerged as one of the Democratic Party's fiercest and most effective Trump critics during the 2016 election, campaigning vigorously for Hillary Clinton. But she's largely avoided talking about Trump since she began testing the waters for a presidential campaign more than a month ago, hewing more closely to the populist economic message that has long made her a favorite of liberals.\n\"By the time we get to 2020, Donald Trump may not even be president. In fact, he may not even be a free person,\" she said.\nWarren told reporters her comments were a reference to the multiple investigations that have shadowed Trump's presidency. Asked if she supported impeaching Trump, Warren was noncommittal, saying only that special counsel Robert Mueller needs to be allowed to finish his investigation and make his report public.\nThe president's ability to create controversies and drive debate poses a challenge for Warren and other Democrats. While Democrats are eager for candidates to show they can handle Trump's aggression, they also risk overshadowing their own visions for the country if they respond to every attack or provocation.\nWarren's campaign launch has been shadowed by the controversy surrounding her past claims to Native American heritage. She's apologized for claiming Native American identity on multiple occasions early in her career.",

        "raw_content": "Deepening Military Ties Solidify China\u2019s Ambitions in Africa\n(VOA): Editor\u2019s note: This is one in a series of articles looking at Chinese involvement in Africa. Also read about infrastructure deals and business opportunities.\nIn late June, top military officials from Mali, Sierra Leone, South Sudan and dozens of other African countries gathered to discuss defense strategies and security threats.\nThe meeting didn\u2019t take place in a major African city, but thousands of kilometers away, in Beijing, China.\nThe occasion was the inaugural China-Africa Defense and Security Forum, a high-profile showcase of expanding military partnerships hosted by China\u2019s Ministry of National Defense.\nThe forum, which concluded July 11, solidifies China\u2019s standing as a key security partner for Africa and coincides with a raft of economic and political moves that have deepened its involvement across the continent.\nIdeology, economics, politics\nPaul Nantulya, a research associate at the Africa Center for Strategic Studies who focuses on China-Africa relations and security, told VOA that China\u2019s military involvement in Africa blends ideology, economics and politics.\nChina\u2019s presence on the continent dates back to the liberation struggles of the 1960s, when it supported anti-colonial and anti-apartheid movements in South Africa, Algeria, Sudan and other countries based on what Nantulya called \u201cideological concerns.\u201d\nWhen former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping came to power in the late 1970s, unprecedented reforms set the stage for China\u2019s ascent as an economic powerhouse.\nChina\u2019s new global posture influenced its engagement in Africa, Nantulya said, bringing economic and political layers to relationships that had previously been one-dimensional.\n\u201cThe military engagement that China has on the continent has become much more complex than merely just an extension of its ideological concerns,\u201d Nantulya said.\n\u201cIncreasingly, we\u2019re also beginning to see military-to-military exchanges between African countries and China, and these exchanges cover a whole range of issues, from peacekeeping to disaster response, to military building, army building, professional military education,\u201d he added. \u201cSo, it\u2019s a much bigger portfolio.\u201d\nAfrican military officials at the defense forum told CGTV, a Chinese state-run broadcaster, that they have well-defined expectations of their partnerships with China.\n\u201cWhat we require from China, which is made very clear, is for them to provide us with the partnership, with the support, with the expertise, with the technical capability, with the capacity-building, with infrastructure, for us to be able to do the job ourselves,\u201d said Lt. Gen. Masanneh Nyuku Kinteh of the Gambia Armed Forces.\nBut if African nations see in China a strategic partner, China sees, at least in part, potential customers. That\u2019s because China is a major player in the global weapons supply chain, Nantulya said, and it\u2019s looking for markets.\nChinese manufacturers have used their growing presence in Africa, along with generous government subsidies, to produce military hardware that\u2019s both cheaper and easier to maintain than their competitors.\nWhereas Western countries focus on heavy hardware \u2014 jets, tanks, rockets \u2014 China\u2019s niche has long been small arms, including pistols and AK-47 assault rifles, Nantulya said.\nThey sell these, along with ammunition, bullet-proof armor and unmanned aerial vehicles, not just to African militaries but also to police and intelligence forces.\nOne example of a close arms relationship is with Sudan, a country whose military industry China helped develop. Algeria, Mozambique and Zimbabwe also import many Chinese arms. And that portfolio is becoming more diverse, including tank deals and accompanying technical training with South Sudan and Uganda, Nantulya said.\nParty-to-party\nChina\u2019s military engagements span the continent, from traditional partners such as Angola, Libya and Tanzania, to more recent relationships with Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti.\nIn each case, China seeks to strengthen its military-to-military connections with party-to-party ties, Nantulya said. \u201cChina invites officials of these ruling parties in these different countries to Beijing. This is a program that is run by the [Central] Party School,\u201d he added, referring to the institution that trains officials for the country\u2019s Communist Party.\nThrough this year-round program, China promotes its ideologies and large-scale initiatives, combining political propaganda with defense strategy and tactics.\nOne example in which many saw Chinese political and security interests mesh was the abrupt fall from power last November of Robert Mugabe, who had led Zimbabwe for 37 years. Many analysts suspected that China played a role in what some considered a military coup.\nA visit by Constantino Chiwenga, then the chief of the military, to Beijing days before Mugabe was put under house arrest stoked those rumors. But shortly after Zimbabwe\u2019s military seized control, Geng Shuang, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, told Reuters that the visit \u201cwas a normal military exchange.\u201d\nChiwenga now serves as Zimbabwe\u2019s vice president.\n\u2018Cult of defense\u2019\nChina casts itself as a different kind of partner for African countries eager to see their sovereignty respected. Rather than make development aid contingent on political reforms or project overt military power, China pursues its security goals indirectly.\nOne venue that\u2019s served as a springboard to a deepening military presence is the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China\u2019s trillion-dollar global development program, which has been the backdrop for many of China\u2019s emerging relationships in Africa.\nThe BRI projects, including railways, dams, ports and a sprawling new free-trade zone in Djibouti, have the potential to accelerate Africa\u2019s industrialization. In many cases, they also entail an ongoing Chinese presence and an investment that needs protecting.\n\u201cThis is a huge \u2014 a massive \u2014 footprint,\u201d Nantulya said. \u201cAnd so China is coordinating its military approach to be able to secure some of those interests.\u201d\nChina has also become more involved in peacekeeping missions to expand its military footprint.\n\u201cThey\u2019ve been much more willing to deploy peacekeepers in places like Sudan, in Darfur, [and in] South Sudan. They\u2019ve been much more willing to take those kinds of risks. But those kinds of risks also come with demands,\u201d Nantulya said.\nNo-strings-attached engagement without political preconditions has, so far, been an effective strategy for China. But it has also restricted the moves China can make and how it presents itself to prospective partners.\n\u201cChina has been captive to what one would call a \u2018cult of defense,\u2019\u201d Nantulya said.\nThat would preclude making pre-emptive strikes or other overt shows of power. China considers its base in Djibouti, for example, a \u201clogistics facility.\u201d\nBut China is part of an elite group of countries that has such overseas bases. And at least one stipulation accompanies all its deals: Countries must sever diplomatic ties with Taiwan, a country that China considers its own territory.\nEqual partner?\nTo build solidarity, China presents itself as a developing country on par with partners in South Asia, Latin America and Africa.\nMaj. Gen. Ibrahima Dahirou Dembele from Mali highlighted shared interests at the Defense Forum, saying, \u201cWe are close to China both culturally and historically, and in facing challenges.\u201d\nBut the size of China\u2019s economy surpasses all of Africa combined, and a recent report by The New York Times on a port transfer in Sri Lanka shows that China can be an aggressive strategic partner.\nIn the past decade, China has embraced a more assertive stance around the world, Nantulya said. That\u2019s evident in its intelligence, defense and security strategies, and embedded in its foreign policy.\nBut China\u2019s \u201cequal partner\u201d narrative has endured.\nDuring a Defense and Security Forum speech that aired on CGTV, Wei Fenghe, China\u2019s national defense minister, said, \u201cChina and Africa\u2019s countries are developing nations. It\u2019s truly fair to say that we are for a community of shared future.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a sentiment that recalls China\u2019s ideologically driven involvement on the continent in the 1960s and continues to resonate, despite ambitions that have become far bigger and more complex.",

        "title": "big tech - NetLingo The Internet Dictionary: Online Dictionary of Computer and Internet Terms, Acronyms, Text Messaging, Smileys ;-)",
        "raw_content": "a.k.a. the frightful five\nBig tech refers to 5 major technology companies (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, and Microsoft), which display a large amount of growth in technology and thereby have inordinate influence.\nIt's important to note that big tech isn\u2019t one big monopoly, but rather 5 companies all in different businesses. Many definitions of big tech include only the GAFA \"big four\" companies (listed above) but big tech also includes Microsoft. It should also be noted that Google's parent company is Alphabet, even though the acronym remains GAFA.\nHistorical perspective: The defining story of 2017 was that the tech giants, the world\u2019s five most valuable public companies, are too big. Not only because they own the technology that will dominate much of life for the foreseeable future, they are also gaining vast social and political power over much of the world beyond tech. According to Farhad Manjoo at The New York Times, the backlash against tech\u2019s \"Frightful Five\" hasn\u2019t hurt their bottom lines a bit. In 2018, each of them reported earnings brimming with fantastic news for investors. Even after Facebook lost $120 billion in market value in one day, it was still the fifth-most valuable corporation in America. Big Tech has been hit with calls for antitrust investigations, accused of political bias, criticized for a lack of diversity, and bashed for feeding an unprecedented increase in income inequality. Company leaders have sounded contrite and remorseful, and have admitted moral responsibility as well as a commitment to rehabilitation. Yet all the while, they\u2019ve expanded their foothold in our lives. If they face real competition, it\u2019s mainly from one another. And thanks to growing sales of high-margin web services, including Amazon\u2019s cloud-computing business, the Frightful Five are making money even more rapidly. All that cash gets reinvested in tech that will dominate the future, from artificial intelligence to voice services to self-driving cars. Get used to the Frightful Five. Their footprint on the culture is only growing, and they\u2019re still finding a lot more new ways to make money. Despite the outcry, don\u2019t expect their power to fade anytime soon.\nIn 2018, Kara Swisher in The New York Times reported on Big Tech's new chemical fix: Silicon Valley is getting high more and more for fun and profit. Microdoses of LSD are common; Adderall is used to plow through work, Ecstasy to relax; and smoking marijuana is now like drinking a glass of wine. Silicon Valley, though, tends to view drugs differently than Hollywood or Wall Street. The point is less to let off steam or lose your inhibitions than to improve your mind. You're trying to achieve a heightened sense of awareness while staying functional. Whatever can get to that place with not a lot of downside (or addiction) is preferred. It's a new experience for techies who spent their entire youth looking at a screen and it's not yet clear this story will end well.\nSee also : big brother big data big five big room GAFA",

There was no baby in the coffin. There is no other answer because you never get that level of preservation of coffin and not have a body be preserved.'\nThe only remains found within the coffin.\nReid lost her son when he was just seven days old at Edinburgh Royal Hospital for Sick Children in 1975 and has been campaigning for 45 years to discover what happened to her son.\nWhen she asked to see her son after his death, she had a strong feeling that is was not her baby.\n'This baby was blonde and big, my baby was tiny and dark-haired. This was not my son,\u201d she told the BBC.\nWhen she discovered her child was not buried at all, she said : 'I wanted to be wrong. I wanted to be called a stupid old woman but the minute Sue lifted the shawl out of the ground I knew there was nothing in it.'\n'My heart hit my feet and I did not know what to say. It is devastating to know that all years I have been coming here to honour my son and he\u2019s not been here. He is my son and he deserves the respect of a proper burial' she added.\nThe grieving mother is still determined to find her son, saying to the BBC: 'If it is possible to get my son back, I want my son back. If it is not possible then at least tell me and let me have peace.'",

This is the upshot of a study that suggests people use their voice to help them understand their emotions.\nIn recent years, it has become clear that our bodies play an active role in shaping our thoughts and emotions. Now it seems our voice has similar powers. A team led by Jean-Julien Aucouturier at the CNRS, the French national research agency, had 109 people listen to their own voices altered to make them more happy, sad or fearful. Not only did most of the participants fail to notice the tampering, but when asked how they felt after listening to the recordings, 85 per cent gave answers that aligned with how their voices had been modified. Skin conductance tests confirmed that they did indeed feel this way (PNAS, 10.1073/pnas.1506552113).\n\u201cIt is really a striking result that participants updated their emotional state in response to their voices,\u201d says Aucouturier. It makes sense to process the emotional expression in others\u2019 voices, he says. \u201cIf you\u2019re angry, I need to know about it because I could be in danger, but there is no point becoming afraid of the sound of a voice when you know it is your own.\u201d\nIt is more likely that the volunteers used their voice to provide data about themselves&colon; I sound happy so I probably am.\n\u201cThis suggests that even subtle changes in vocal expression carry subjective meaning in the context of emotion regulation,\u201d says Simone Schnall at the University of Cambridge.\nThis article appeared in print under the headline \u201cHow do I sound?

My job is to represent the US.\u201d\n\u201cFree nations are the best vehicle for expressing the will of the people \u2014 and America respects the right of all nations to chart their own path,\u201d he said.\nInstead of isolationism, the President said: \u201cOur foreign policy calls for a direct, robust and meaningful engagement with the world.\u201d\nFor this, he said: \u201cAmerica is willing to find new friends, and to forge new partnerships, where shared interests align. We want harmony and stability, not war and conflict.\u201d\nAs for American leadership, he said it will be \u201cbased on vital security interests that we share with our allies across the globe\u201d.\nThese elements of his emerging foreign policy mark a break from previous Democratic and Republican administrations\u2019 policy of nation-building and exporting democracy.\nIn practice, though, these policy claims mired the US in wars even as they exposed the hypocrisy of supporting dictatorial regimes where it suited the economic or foreign policy interests.\nTuesday\u2019s speech also toned down the strident \u2018America First\u2019 agenda that he presented at his inaugural address on January 20.\nBut he reiterated his promise \u201cto demolish and destroy\u201d the Islamic State, which he described as \u201ca network of lawless savages that have slaughtered Muslims and Christians, and men, women, and children of all faiths and beliefs\u201d.\nWhile offering continued support to the NATO and other allies in an attempt to allay fears, Trump reiterated his condition they should meet their share of the financial obligations.\n\u201cAnd now, based on our very strong and frank discussions, they are beginning to do just that,\u201d he asserted.\nOn international commerce, Trump said he believed in free trade but brought up his criticism that it was not currently fair and led to loss of millions of American jobs.\n\u201cI am not going to let America and its great companies and workers, be taken advantage of anymore,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI am going to bring back millions of jobs. We must create a level playing field for American companies and workers.\u201d (IANS)\nAmerica First policy",

        "raw_content": "Bloody Sunday widow to get \u00a3625,000 damages\nThe family of Gerald McKinney attend the High Court in Belfast where they were awarded damages from the MOD regarding the shooting dead of their brother Gerald McKinney during Bloody Sunday in January 1972. '''Picture by Jonathan Porter/PressEye\nThe widow of a man shot dead by a soldier on Bloody Sunday is to receive \u00a3625,000 in damages, the High Court has heard.\nThe settlement was reached in 80-year-old Ita McKinney\u2019s legal action over her husband Gerry\u2019s killing in Londonderry in January 1972.\nMr McKinney, a 35-year-old a father of eight, was among 13 people shot dead when British Army paratroopers opened fire on civil rights demonstrators.\nOne of the others wounded on the day died later.\nIn a separate resolution, the brother of single man Michael McDaid, 20, is to receive \u00a375,000 in damages for his death on Bloody Sunday.\nThe outcomes follow last week\u2019s award of \u00a3193,000 compensation to Michael Quinn, who was shot in the face as a schoolboy by one of the soldiers.\nMr Justice McAlinden congratulated lawyers involved in the test cases for reaching the settlements \u201cwithout the need for any distressing sensitive or distressing evidence to be given\u201d.\nClaims were brought against the Ministry of Defence (MoD) by victims and their families after a major tribunal established the innocence of all those killed and wounded.\nThe Saville Inquiry\u2019s findings in 2010 prompting the then prime minister, David Cameron, to publicly apologise for the actions of the soldiers.\nHe described the killings as \u201cunjustified and unjustifiable\u201d.\nWith liability accepted, the court battle centred on the level of damages to be paid out.\nMr McKinney was shot at Abbey Park in the city after going on the civil rights march.\nA qualified engineer and toolmaker by trade, he had been a renowned entrepreneur prior to his death.\nHe and his wife Ita had seven children, with an eighth born a week after Bloody Sunday.\nIn court today a dispute emerged over methods for calculating the financial loss in his case.\nCounsel for Mrs McKinney, Brian Fee QC, claimed the defendants were attempting to use rules from the 1970s in order to pay out just a tenth of the appropriate damages.\nHe contended that it went against government pledges about taking a generous approach to compensating victims.\nBut following further out of court discussions it was confirmed that both listed cases had been resolved.\nMrs McKinney is to receive \u00a3625,000 plus costs in the action she brought on behalf of her late husband\u2019s dependants.\nKevin McDaid, who sued over the shooting of his brother Michael near a barricade on Rossville Street, will receive \u00a375,000 damages, also with costs.\nDavid Ringland QC, for the MoD, indicated that similar agreements are now expected to be reached in nine other fatal cases following the \u201cbreakthrough\u201d.\nOutside court solicitor Fearghal Shiels, representing the relatives involved in the lawsuits, said: \u201cThis is a further vindication of their innocence and the families in bringing the proceedings.\n\u201cWe also welcome the fact that this has been resolved without the need for Mr McKinney\u2019s daughters to take the witness box.\u201d",

        "title": "Clayton manager headed to Virginia | Raleigh News & Observer",
        "raw_content": "As far as swan songs go, 2015 went about as well as Biggs could have hoped for: Industries are expanding, parks and subdivisions are under construction, and the median household income of $56,000 is $10,000 above the state average.\nTown employees found out about Biggs\u2019 departure the week before, when he sent out a staff-wide email. In it, he said his only real accomplishment was assembling the nearly 180 town workers.\n\u201cI take a lot of satisfaction in that fact, and I leave knowing that Clayton is in good hands,\u201d Biggs wrote in the email.\nNineteen years is well above the average for town managers to stay in one place, and Biggs said the move follows a number of personal factors lining up. With his daughter attending Liberty University in Lynchburg next fall, Biggs will have two children in Virginia. His son is stationed in Norfolk with the U.S. Navy.\n\u201cI just felt the timing was right; a lot of things fell into place,\u201d he said.\nIn his next job, Biggs said, he wanted to be in either a college town or one with a major hospital. Christiansburg was close enough; it is situated between Radford, with Radford University, and Blacksburg, with Virginia Tech.\nWhile Clayton might have been on the brink of a state takeover when he arrived, Biggs said that\u2019s not really what he remembers.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a difference when you\u2019re living in a certain time and you\u2019re looking back; I think about the opportunity that was there for growth and change,\u201d Biggs said. \u201cThe best thing I could do was work as a facilitator for a new council. I came on in May of \u201997 and there was a November election. I think I was able to work with them to begin to rebuild an organization that was positioned for growth.\u201d\nA decade in to Biggs\u2019 tenure, Clayton and the rest of the country fell into a crippling recession. Biggs called it \u201cjust short of devastating,\u201d but said \u201cjust short\u201d allowed for Clayton to be what it is today.\n\u201cWe had done a lot of modeling and made a lot of decisions about staffing and programs prepping for continuous growth,\u201d he said. \u201cWe have great companies, and if we had lost any of our major employers during the recession, it could have been devastating.\u201d\nNow on the heels of the Novo Nordisk and Grifols expansions, Biggs projects 2017 and 2018 will be the town\u2019s best years.\n\u201cClayton\u2019s best years are definitely ahead,\u201d he said.\nBiggs got his local government start in Wendell, where he was planning director and assistant to the town manager for six years. He was town manager of Aberdeen before coming to Clayton.\nMayor Jody McLeod said a young and energetic Biggs stood out among the candidates the town considered to replace Ralph Clark in 1997.\n\u201cSteve Biggs was the first one to make the interview a conversation,\u201d McLeod said. \u201cHe gave a great interview. He was energetic, ambitious and had a vision. We wanted to hire him.\u201d\nAt the time, McLeod said, Clayton was not seen as a plumb job, as poor management led to deteriorating finances. He said Biggs and Clayton took a chance on each other.\n\u201cWe took a vote and decided to give this young guy a chance,\u201d McLeod said. \u201cAt the time, Clayton was not a prime place to go and be a town manager.\u201d\nThe town\u2019s turnaround, the mayor said, stemmed from Biggs\u2019 staff hirings, including Medlin, who had been part of the state team investigating Clayton\u2019s books.\n\u201cHow do you eat a white elephant? One bite at a time,\u201d McLeod said. \u201cSteve has a knack for hiring the right people, a gift really.\u201d\nOnce Clayton had some breathing room, Biggs helped the town look to the future, focusing on infrastructure and quality of life, Councilman Michael Grannis said.\n\u201cHe came in and clearly spent some time understanding the financial status of the town,\u201d Grannis said. \u201cHe had foresight with respect to growth, promoting infrastructure, so that when someone comes knocking, you\u2019re shovel ready for a project, instead of spending a year or more getting the infrastructure in place.\u201d\nClayton will likely hire consultant Developmental Associates to help recruit the town\u2019s next manager. The town council, the mayor said, won\u2019t rush the process.\n\u201cClayton is now, in 2016, a prime town to come and work in,\u201d McLeod said. \u201cI\u2019m very confident we\u2019ll find an extremely qualified person. We\u2019re really sad to see Steve go, but he\u2019s leaving us way better off than he found us.\u201d\nGrannis said what Clayton needs in a manager today differs from what it needed in 1997. Today the town talks about what to include in its sculpture trail, not whether it can make its debt payments.\n\u201cWe\u2019re dealing with a completely different set of issues than we were 20 years ago,\u201d Grannis said. \u201cIn all my professional experience, I\u2019ve never met an individual as diversified as Steve Biggs, who has such an expansive knowledge.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think we would look for someone with the specific expertise Steve has, but rather someone whose strengths are a little bit different.\u201d\nDrew Jackson: 919-553-7234, Ext. 104; @jdrewjackson",

        "title": "Passive Income Walkthrough \u2013 How to get started and moving on passive income",
        "raw_content": "Passive Income Walkthrough \u2013 How to get started and moving on your passive income system.\nOkay, I think it's been long enough since I placed my post on creating passive income \u2013 now let's start the walk through of creating a new stream of passive income from conception to launch to operationalization.\nIf you hadn't been following the passive income post and series that I started earlier in August, I encourage you to start with the first post and catch up as you can.\nThe process of creating new income streams varies from individuals to individuals, simply because we're all different, so you should or may not necessarily follow my model entirely as you experience, knowledge, skills and networks/resources may not be the same as mine. Even though so, I think you'll be able to learn something from this walkthrough.\nIt all begins with an idea in your head, a spark. Sometimes it comes with revelation beforehand first, like \"why am I working so hard for active income?\"\nFor some, it's nothing new, it's more like a \"why not?\" approach, as in \"since I'm doing so-and-so already, why not make it a passive income system?\"\nOne of the easiest and simplest way is to have pen and paper on standby for sudden ideas and revelations, or the most common is to brainstorm a list of ideas. If you're brainstorming, keep writing ideas until you run out of ideas, and then write some more. Some could be spin offs, some could be repetition, but keep writing. Then walk away from that list for at least an hour, and then look over, make editions, or add more and then streamline to the top three that is most decent in terms of profitability and passion.\nMany people get caught and stuck when trying to pick an idea \u2013 look, if you get stuck here, you can't go anywhere. So whatever you do, don't let yourself get stuck here, make a decision no matter what. For myself, once I've distilled my options to the top three choices, if they're all the same in terms of value, then I'd ask myself what would be more fun to do, and make that choice to move in that direction. Getting stuck in the \"what if\" scenario will not get me anywhere, so I refuse to participate in that (see my article on preventing procrastination here).\nAnother good way to choose amongst options is to ask \"Which option is the most me?\" and that often helps =)\nOkay, worse case scenario if you really can't decide, just flip a coin or go totally random. Why do this is because it's better to make a decision and take action quickly rather than suffering in self-suffering and self-pity as it's a perpetuating problem. You'll progress much faster by having a few projects in your hand as opposed to trying to envision and to dream up the \"dream vision.\" Some people will advise you to fail quickly, which can be both bad and good, but in this case, it's good.\nYou realize that picking an idea is definitely not the same as complaining and whining about why you can't pick an idea. Of course it's also not the same as saying that you don't have any good ideas. It's also not the same as saying \"I don't know how\" when you think about your favorite idea.\nTo be honest, good income-generating ideas and businesses are aplenty. Coming up with the ideas and \"oh that's a good idea\" is the easy part. If you've been employed and stuck in the corporate world for too long, it's likely that your creative ideas and impulses part of your brain has been crushed and limited to become a herd-mentality and follow-the-crowd and wait-to-move to make you a better droid. If that's the case with you, just walk to the nearest child and ask what you can do to make the world a better place, and really listen to what they have to say.\nOkay if you're really stuck and can't come up with a decent idea, then I'd be more than happy to pick one for you and assign it to you, but you may not like it\u2026.unless you're in Singapore and submissive =D\nMy initial idea was to create an internet business or digital model and to sell it \u2013 to me, that seems to be the easiest and most straightforward, and it's an approach that others can model if they so wish to. I can sell something through my own website, and other people can sell digital product(s) through Amazon, iTunes and other online stores or websites, depending on the approach.\nRefining the Idea\nDepending on the nature of your idea, you have details to consider to decide the next step. For my product idea, I need to determine a topic and a format.\nAgain, you can brainstorm possibilities and pick possibilities and keep moving forward. Don't get stuck, just decide, even if you do it by random selection. Yes, your decision may not be perfect, and \u2013 don't get shocked- it doesn't have to be perfect. Just pick an idea that seems pretty decent, and start \u2013 you'll get better at picking ideas once you've started and completed a few projects and saw how they turned out.\nI decided on a online health supplement called HCF Happy, Calm & Focused which originates from the United States (US) and Canada, so I have a very specific product in a niche area of health supplements, in a amino acid brain supplement arena. I may add more items to the site later, but I can decide on that later.\nSo my niche product is HCF Happy, Calm & Focused.\nWhy HCF? For starters ever since I started running a business and opened a clinic in the central business district of Singapore, I've been increasingly stressed with more demands of the business, sleeping lesser and having more episodes of sleeplessness and headaches.\nI've personally sourced for this health product and made the efforts to bring it into Singapore for my personal consumption and trial. Interestingly, they are giving a free trial for residents of US and Canada, but you've to pay for shipping and handling (depending on where you're located, shipping and handling can be as low as $9). I live in Singapore, and as Singapore isn't on the list, I had to pay for it on my own, but that's alright with me.\nMost of the health supplements and products today are very shallow \"glorified multivitamins\" and/or very rah-rah hyped, and fails to explain how and why there are various functions of their amino acids and how they work together. Of course, testimonials from professionals including medical doctors, accountants and sports people do make a difference (there's more professionals taking it too, but I mention these three as these three will be ultra concerned with ethics and performance).\nI thought that this would be a useful supplement for me and an interesting product to take. Based on what I've seen and researched, there isn't many niche amino acids brain supplements that's available on the market, moreso the parent company just focuses on just one niche product where all the research and development is poured into its one and only flagship product.\nI don't think that this product is a product that will make me the most money \u2013 it's a very niche health supplement product, and most people don't care or care enough to find out about it. But for those who do care, they tend to care a lot. So HCF Happy, Calm & Focused will be the kind of brain supplement that will have a strong appeal to a certain core audience, and beyond that most people will just think it's weird.\nI'd rather make some people really happy than having lots of people only moderately or partially happy. For me, it's helped me to decrease my frequency of headaches, have deeper sleep, more alertness and mainly it helps me to make better decision as I'm more aware and conscious. But that's me.\nSo I'm choosing this topic because it has helped me, I've enjoyed its benefits, I think enough people would appreciate it, and it's an area where I feel I can contribute something unique and worthwhile.\nBrain supplementation is also a classic product, so this product could easily sell for many years to come.\nFall in Love With Your Idea\nThe next thing to do is to fall in love with your idea. Many people often make the mistake of looking to their idea to give them that spark of confidence, as though an idea by itself can do that. No they can't.\nIn reality, most ideas are quite general and kind of fuzzy at first \u2013 it's you who injects them with confidence. Your relationship with your idea with determine how far you'd go, and this relationship is largely under your direct influence and control. Where does your relationship with another exist \u2013 in your mind. Where does your relationship with an idea exist \u2013 also in your mind.\nIf you started thinking negatively about your relationship and friends and partner and give in to doubt about a possible positive future together, what do you think that will do to your relationship. Chances are, it'd kill it. Maybe fast, maybe slow. On the other hand, if you hold loving thoughts towards your relationship and ideas, voila, your relationship will improve.\n<p>The best thing that a relationship with an idea is even better. Start by treating your idea as if it's the most amazing thing \u2013 ever. Respect it. Honor it. Fall in love with it.\nDon't look to your idea to motivate you or inspire you. Don't try to suck your idea dry like you're sucking a fruit dry. Instead, let inspiration flow towards the idea \u2013 it is you who must feed, water, nurture and grow your idea. It is you who helps to give it its form and substance. You're the gardener here.\nIt's like planting a fruit tree, you plant the seed, nurture it to grow, protect it, fertilize it, and later as it matures it provides you the shade and fruits of your labor together.\nIf you plant it but don't love it, why would anyone else do so as well? An unloved idea and seed will lead to poor commitment and poor follow up, and often result in bad results that no one wants, including yourself.\nHave fun with your idea, be playful and open with it.\nAn example is that I'm falling more and more in love with my HCF Happy, Calm & Focused brain supplement product. It is the coolest, most brain-nourishing and alertness-developing brain product that anyone has ever seen, which is why I've been committed to taking it everyday first thing in the morning for since August 2012, I've never missed a day of taking it. How it helps me, I'm very sure it'd help you, your family and children focus at work, at school, and be more excited and alert to be their best selves ever =)\nIt's fun and motivating to inject your idea with positive expectations. Self doubt, worry and fear will only slow things down, so don't even go there.\nOnce you've selected your idea, the evaluation period is over. Like a newborn baby, you've named it, claimed it and taken it home with you. It's too late now to decide whether or not it's a good idea. It's yours now, and you'd better learn to love it.\nDevise an Income Stream for Your Idea\nSome ideas are very easy to monetize and incorporate income streams to them. Others require more careful consideration and planning.\nIn my case of the brain supplement that I'm using, I'm leveraging on their pre-built sales and affiliate program to be marketed on an entirely new website Happy-Calmer-Focused-Amino-Acid.com, as well as to marketed directly on my other websites, NigelChua.com (this website that you're reading) as well as Urban-Rehab.org.\nLater I may market them on other sites such as classified like Amazon, eBay etc, but for the purpose of this demonstration, I'll keep it simple. What happens if you don't have high traffic website(s) like I do \u2013 then it's likely that you will not generate as many sales if all you do is to post it on your website.\nWhen I started by physiotherapy business, I spent a lot of time marketing our services and clinic, and this involves a lot of legwork and word of mouth marketing on my end to share the news to end users, doctors and subsequently building up Urban-Rehab.org. For just our physiotherapy services, I spend at least 6 months to build up the marketing, and until today I still spend an average of 10-20% of my time personally marketing it.\nThis makes a big difference, increasing our revenue from virtually nothing to six figures.\nIf you've fallen in love with your idea, you'll have a lot of motivation for this\u2026but if you don't love it, I'd bet money that you'll give up here.\nEverywhere I go, I see lots of potential offline and online entrepreneurs create and release products and businesses that they clearly don't love. The usual pattern is that they will spread the word, market it for maybe a couple of weeks, then they give up and let the income stream die. People know when it's a \"me-too, me-too\" product, so they stay away and not but. With an unloved product, this by itself is discouragement to give up.\nConversely, with a product you really love, you will be able to go on and push on and keep getting the word out.\nIt's not enough to \"build it and they will come\" approach, or to create a really cool product and hope that people will buy it. You have to tell people about it. Yes, once you've build enough momentum, your sales may become self-sustaining, but this doesn't happen automatically simply because you've created something and put it on the internet.\nIn my case I own several marketing platforms that I use, such as my websites and newsletters, social media such as FaceBook and Twitter to get the word out. Blogging about the development of this system as well as writing articles along the way is also a way of marketing it. Though many people who are following this passive income series wont care about an amino acid brain supplement product, some will.\nI can share more ideas about marketing later in the series. For now, let me just say that you can probably expect to spend as much time marketing your new product or services as you do creating it \u2013 if you don't love your creation, that will be a big problem. If you love it, then getting the word out is not so bad =)\nThe good news is that you don't have to design your own income-generating system from scratch, I'm definitely not doing that as well. You can use someone else's fully developed systems such as the ones I've shared from before.\nMap Out The Idea\nNext, outline and map out the rough blueprint of your venture. What do you think you will include? For my HCF Happy, Calm & Focused, I came out with a rough blueprint of the business:\nIt will an entirely online business venture and marketing, leveraging on the affiliate system created by The HCF Company, with a very, very rough approach of:\nIntroducing amino acids for the brain and the problem of not nourishing your brain\nWhat are some signs and symptoms of a malnourished brain\nBrain supplementation with HCF Happy, Calm Focused\nBrain supplementing versus general supplementation\nTestimonials from professionals who use and endorse it and my personal experience with using HCF\nTesting if it works for you and if it does, how to\nIncorporate HCF into your lifestyle\nFinal wisdom and being an affiliate\nOkay, this is only a rough draft, and may not necessarily be the final outline of the completed business and product, but it helps to start and gets me where I want to go with the brain supplementation. For example, I know I'm going to cover my personal journey of using this supplement.\nThe point is to create something to help guide you in your process, but don't let it limit you \u2013 if you're stuck and spending more than 1-2 hours, I think that that's waay too long \u2013 it's alright and perfectly okay to aim for something that looks just okay, or halfway decent. If you cant manage something that is just okay, never mind, just settle for \"not okay\" first, as you can always change it later and modify and fine tune as you go along.\nIt's really easy to get stuck here at this point in time, that's why I prefer to move through it quickly. Okay, if you're building a building or a home, it makes more sense to invest more time in calculated planning. But for a mobile digital service or product, overplanning and overanalysing tends to be much greater risk \u2013 a general idea of main sections will do to start.\nCreating a Simple Completion Plan\nNow here's the part where we focus on getting things done. The earlier steps were pretty straightforward, you can do them within an hour. If it took you longer than that, you're probably stuck, just make a decisive step and move on.\nHere is the step where lots of interesting ideas may die \u2013 lets pay attention to how you're going to complete this and get it done.\nFor one-person projects such as this sort doesn't require that much planning, so don't get stuck in planning and planning and planning. Some people get stuck in refining and replanning rather than just getting ready to begin, it would have taken less time to just get down and doing it.\nPersonally, I prefer the getting down and doing it approach, which has worked wonderfully well for my physical business, but as this is an online project, I want to make sure that I have a process to guide me to a completed project.\nHere's my basic action plan to move this project forward to completion:\nEvery day that I take the HCF Happy, Calm & Focused, I'll document my journey and my experiences of taking it \u2013 what I feel, what I think etc\nEach day I'll add a webpage according to keywords as stipulated and researched by Site Build It!, so that I will have people and google friendly pages so that by 30 days I should have 30 keyword-rich pages up (plus minus 1-3 pages) including weekends.\nI'll keep going until the completion of four weeks of trial for me to conclude a full one month experience of this product.\nFor each section and page I'll jot down some quick notes for key points, stories and ideas I intend to add in.\nAfter each page, I'll do an editing pass to pickup and correct any errors, to add subsection headers and improve the flow as a whole.\nOnce the web page is done, I'll spend more time marketing the website and business as an individual in Singapore and as a user throughout the internet, targeting specifically individuals and families who are willing to purchase and use premium brain supplement products.\nSo that in essence, is the basic plan.\nNow many things can go wrong with this plan\u2026maybe the supplier may shut down. Maybe writing everyday of my experiences will be too tough. Maybe I need to take the weekends off so that I wont go mad. Maybe my web servers may crash, and I'll have to redo. Whatever it is, it's okay. The plan can evolve and adapt as we go along \u2013 the point of planning is to envision a path to completion.\nWhat I had written down above looks good enough to me.\nMy physiotherapy business is picking up speed, so I'll have to work around that \u2013 that's the main reason why my time to blog and share with you philosophies and principles of living courageously is limited \u2013 I'm engaging the world with my philosophies and principles to fine tune them. I'll be taking over an entire clinic by God's grace and careful planning on my part, and serious renovation and marketing will be done as well \u2013 I'm doubtful that I'll have time to keep working on my HCF Happy Calm Focused business on the side when I'm fully engaged here, so I'll probably leave it to run on it's own and continue where I left off once I'm not so busy with Urbanrehab.\nUrbanrehab is currently a big part of my lifestyle, so I'm fine having this project taking a bit longer to work around it.\nI know that if I hit a certain content quota every day, and if I bring the existing content and my personal sharings at the end of each day, I'll eventually reach people who are looking for the solutions that HCF Happy Calm Focus is giving me, which include brain supplementing for better clarity and decision making. So even with much time dedicated to Urbanrehab, this will eventually work out as long as I stick with it.\nHow long will it take? I don't know, maybe 3 months, maybe 6 months, maybe longer\u2026but it could be a whole lot more. I'll create as much as I can and as it takes to do justice to the awesome product and for me to feel satisfied with the end result. The length doesn't matter since it's going to be web based. If some people are not going to buy it because it's online, they're not sure etc, I'm perfectly alright with that \u2013 that's an idea for me to put the physical product in my clinic as well for people who would like to see and touch before they buy. Most of my web visitors are between 20 \u2013 55, and past data showed that most of them prefer online shopping and digital products, so let's see how things goes from here.\nPrice wise it's not up to me to set the prices, as the prices has already been set by The HCF Company. Retail price is USD 60, but for monthly autoship is USD 40, and if you buy in bulk you can save up to 30-40% on the price as well as for shipping (this is how I buy as well). I think that's very reasonable, as I spend hundreds of dollars every month for health supplements. I'm sure they could price it higher, but I don't want to promote something that companies or people are pricing higher just for more profits, and I don't want people to feel that price is a barrier for them, but I am aware that the current price will be a barrier for some.\nMy initial intention where I shared earlier, was to create a new income stream of $1000 or more per month that lasts for 10 years minimum, if the average profit is $20, I'll have to make 50 sales per month, which is about 2 sales per day. That may be a little of a challenge for me in the beginning, but I'm expecting it to snowball after reaching a critical mass point, so it should be an achievable goal.\nWhat Are Your Passive Income Priorities?\nThere are many, many ways to set up an income stream, do allow me to share with you what to watch out for and what to optimize for.\nMany people try to maximize for profits, but that often includes sacrificing other things in exchange for more money, such as communicating as a real human being. An example is that you may be a lot more aggressive and pushy when it comes to sales\u2026and to me it's a super big turnoff.\nThat may have to do with my personal character and motivation, which is to do something creative that I enjoy and to contribute something of value for others' lives, and to share in such a way that financial support flows back to me.\nAnother important factor for me is to prevent and avoid creating headaches for myself \u2013 I don't really care about fighting privacy, so if people want to bypass me without paying for it or payment in affiliate fees, that's really their choice. I don't think that I want to give myself headache for detractors who don't believe in it, especially those who hadn't tried it.\nDuring the past years, I've given lots of content away for free. The payment I ask in return is that I live my life enjoyably, to be happy and fulfilled in living how I wish to live. I like creating passive income streams because its so much easier to center them around my life and I can spend my time in learning, exploring, connecting and sharing.\nI understand that your priorities may be different than mine, so it'd make sense to adapt your passive income stream to suit your own desires \u2013 just note that maximizing income isn't the only nor is it the best approach for you.\nNow, it is your turn\nIf you're thinking to go along with your own idea, then I'd like to encourage you to pick an idea, quickly create an outline, and see how far you'll bring it forward and complete it. Don't feel pressured to follow me in real time with the creation of your own income stream \u2013 I obviously have some advantages and experiences that many others don't. this walkthrough will be here indefinitely, so feel free to go through it whenever and whatever your pace.",

        "raw_content": "Publisher: Double Dragon eBooks\nLash, #1\nI enjoyed everything about this Lash. It featured a unique twist that set it apart from other paranormal stories.\nTryst is a were-snake and grew up in the swamps. His family didn't have anything and his dad was a no show. The family leaves the swamps in search of a better life. Dad shows back up and for a while things are looking good. But life held a lot of heartbreak for poor Tryst. This is the shocking story of how far one man will go for revenge. His journey took a violent path as Tryst became Lash, a deadly assassin.\nThe story is set in the twenties and this was the first time I've read anything from that era. That setting gave the story a gangster-ish vibe and I found that I enjoyed it a lot. The story is also told in the hero's POV, and once again this was unique. Confession time: I didn't think I'd enjoy that at first. I generally lean more toward reading stories that are told from the heroine's POV or better yet with both. But the author gave Tryst/Lash a strong voice that endeared him even when I didn't like the things he did.\nI felt that Tryst/Lash had two very distinctive personalities. He showed great loyalty to his family. But he also did some very bad things. He loved his family and was willing to do anything to protect them. It was hard for me to get over his various misdeeds, but at least I understood where he was coming from. He was searching for love without even knowing it. He was capable of great caring but yet he killed without remorse.\nThe only thing that bothered me about the book was the ending. It kind of just faded away. Hopefully there is more to come and I look forward to getting another glimpse into the life and times of such an intriguing character.\nThis is not a book for the faint of heart. It's gritty and intense and at times it's downright shocking. It's a great story that will tug at your heart strings.\nI enjoyed Lash immensely and look forward to more from this talented writer. I'd recommend Lash to all the paranormal readers who are looking for something refreshing and unique.\nBook Blurb for Lash\nScarred from a childhood spent in constant indigence, teen years infused with ill-gotten affluence as the son of an influential criminal, and finally into adulthood rife with complications\u2014weresnake Trystan Valeras is hardened into the titular Lash: a whip-wielding killer with a talent for violence and a thirst for vengeance.",

        "raw_content": "Convened by the Northern Ireland Local Government Association (NILGA), the forum is made up of MLAs and Councillors from the five main parties and 11 councils in Northern Ireland.\nThe third meeting of the political forum occurs in the week after Northern Ireland marked two years since the fall of the Northern Ireland Assembly and Executive, which has left the 11 councils as the only democratically elected and fully functioning part of government in Northern Ireland.\nThe Political Forum brings together not only politicians, but seeks solutions to matters of common and dynamic concern. The last meeting resulted in strong, cross-party lobbying, following representations by NILGA and Council officers, to confirm \u00a3650,000 of emergency planning funding over two years. Prior to this, funding for and co-ordination of such vital matters, including joint working on flood control and follow-up, was uncertain.\nSimilarly, the Education Authority, despite substantial budget issues, offered support for a policy to enable improved sharing of facilities and better engagement between local government and schools.\nIn the Assembly\u2019s absence, the Forum provides opportunity for co-operation, maintaining a key link between central and local government members in Northern Ireland, with councils facing unprecedented pressures on their budgets and resources, from the whole community.\nThe meeting of the political forum today included important issues such as council finances, Community Planning, how to move a Programme for Government forward and foster strong working relationships across government, at all levels, in the face of the continued political impasse.\nDerek McCallan, Chief Executive of NILGA said:\n\u201cNILGA wants to see a dynamic, modern, Legislative Assembly and Executive up and running but until that happens, we need to focus on giving councils the resources to get things done.\n\u201cThat\u2019s why we established the Central \u2013 Local Government Political Forum, to provide devolved political scrutiny of matters of real concern and to engage in joined-up thinking and working, during the continuing deadlock.\n\u201cWe\u2019re now entering the third year of no Stormont. This, together with managing the twists and turns of Brexit, reinforces the need for dynamic action. The 11 councils \u2013 and all parties and independent members within them \u2013 are working hard and planning ahead for the whole community.\n\u201cCouncils are supportive of delivering more, but only when they are equipped with the long-term capacity and finances to do so.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Blog: Spotlight on mental health and care services\nIn her regular blog, our new Chief Executive, Andrea Sutcliffe, reflects on her visit to Wales as part of her commitment to getting a better sense of the differing health and care landscapes across the UK\nI\u2019ve been determined in my first few weeks to get out and about to see colleagues in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland so I can get a better sense of the differing health and care landscapes.\nAs a four country regulator, it is really important to me that we listen and learn from colleagues across the UK about how the work we do impacts on the lives of those we regulate and the public.\nVisit to Wales\nSo, last Friday, I made my way through the snow to Wales. I was a tad worried that the weather might affect the trip but fortunately it was okay \u2013 though I did get up ridiculously early to make sure I had enough time to walk to the station if the buses couldn\u2019t get up the hill out of Crouch End (which has been known to happen!).\nAli Neyle, our head of strategic communications, and I were safe and sound on the train when Ruth Walker, one of our Council members, rang to check in as sadly she was having to dig her car out so she could meet us at our first stop, the mental health service at the University Hospital Llandough in Cardiff. Fortunately she made it and I was really grateful she was able to be there. We were also joined by another Council member, Lorna Tinsley which I really appreciated.\nMany people\u2019s views of nursing are shaped by the dramas we watch on TV, so are focused on acute hospitals, especially accident and emergency departments (I used to joke I learnt all my clinical knowledge from watching the 1990\u2019s American series ER). But thousands of nurses on our register work in very different settings and I wanted to make sure my first visits out and about covered all four countries and the breadth of the nursing, midwifery and nursing associate experience. Hence the visit to a mental health service.\nI have to say, the staff we met including sisters, charge nurses and senior leaders, were really pleased that we were there. Mental health nurses don\u2019t get the recognition they deserve. But I know from my professional and personal life what an incredibly important contribution to people\u2019s lives they make.\nWe had some great discussions \u2013 including a reflection on \u201cwhat does the NMC do for me?\u201d Their view of us are heavily influenced by fear of the fitness to practise process and worrying that a mistake could lead to them losing their registration. We talked about the changes we are planning in fitness to practise but it was clear to me that we have a communication challenge on our hands to ensure everyone knows what we are trying to do. They were also interested in what more the NMC could do to support them in their roles. This is all helpful insight to inform the development of our strategy for 2020 to 2015.\nLike mental health nurses, nurses working in the social care sector often feel left out of important discussions about nursing. Just like mental health nurses, they do an incredible job and are a vital part of the profession we must nurture and develop if we are to properly support people with complex needs throughout their lives. In my old job at the Care Quality Commission this was a subject close to my heart (see this blog \"Where have all the nurses gone?\" from 2015) and I wanted to carry that focus into the NMC too.\nWith Gill Knight from the Chief Nursing Officer for Wales\u2019 team, Ali and I visited Ty Penrhos Care Home run by Haford Care. We had the best time!! The management team, nursing staff and students in training we met were so passionate about what they do and were great role models. We were able to chat with residents and my favourite moment was meeting Olga, now a resident in the home but a nurse in her working life. She had some hilarious tales to share and had us in stitches.\nWales and integration\nIt was also good to chat with partners from the local university and Health Board who are working closely with the home to support the training and education of the next generation of nurses and meet the health needs of the people living there. This reflects some of the ambitions in the Welsh Government publication Healthier Wales: Our plan for health and social care which sets out a long term future vision of a \u2018whole system approach to health and social care\u2019. This along with a wide range of other subjects was an important topic when I met the CNO for Wales, Jean White and two of her team, Gill Knight and Karen Jewell at lunch time.\nNorthern Ireland is my next stop so I\u2019ll be sure to report back in next week\u2019s blog on the visit. I will be also making my way to the North of England at the end of this month, so watch this space.",

        "raw_content": "As part of our approach in managing client portfolios, we have sought to carve out a section that has the ability to hold various security types (stocks, bonds, commodities, cash) from anywhere in the world. We have predominantly used two funds in this \u201cGlobal Opportunity\u201d category for the last five-plus years: BlackRock Global Allocation and Ivy Asset Strategy.\nWe have been searching for another Global Opportunity fund the past couple of years to supplement our existing holdings. Thus far we have been unable to find options that meet our high standards of long-term management, a favorable track record (especially during down markets) and sufficient flexibility to go anywhere in pursuit of value. As Bill mentioned in his note last quarter, the lead manager of Ivy Asset Strategy is retiring effective June 30, and we have spent a significant amount of time evaluating options in light of this development.\nUnfortunately we are less certain that Ivy Asset Strategy\u2019s two remaining managers (both with the fund for less than two years) can implement the strategy with the same level of success as the previous management. We have therefore decided to transition out of Ivy and will be contacting clients with specific recommendations in the coming weeks.\nOur general plan is to redeploy most of the Ivy proceeds into the existing international funds, which would bring clients\u2019 international allocation closer to parity with the domestic side. We will also be introducing a new domestic mid-cap fund as a way to further diversify our US holdings.\nIn closing, we are grateful for the patience our clients have exhibited as the last several years have not been ideal for value-oriented investment strategies. We continue to favor mutual fund managers who look for bargains and would rather hold cash than buy something expensive \u2013 an approach we think is increasingly critical given the current market environment.\nWe look forward to discussing specific portfolio recommendations with you. Please call with any questions in the meantime.",

        "raw_content": "Folger Park\nFolger Park is a designed cultural landscape located in a residential neighborhood of Capitol Hill in SE Washington, D.C. The two-acre urban park is significant as a component of Andrew Ellicott\u2019s 1792 revision of the 1791 L\u2019Enfant Plan for Washington, and for the 1936 National Park Service redesign that is still reflected today.\nGeorge Burnap, landscape architect for the Office of Public Buildings and Public Grounds, described a \"passing-through park\" as one where \"design and composition should be such that the quick impression given may be a forceful and expressive one.\u201d In Folger Park Cultural Landscapes Inventory, pg. 34\nThe central plaza and planter (former wading pool) in Folger Park in 1964.\nNPS Photo (MRCE Folger 8771-E 1964)\nFolger Park has two periods of historic significance: 1791-1792, when this area first appeared on Andrew Ellicott\u2019s modification of the L\u2019Enfant Plan; and 1936, when the park was redesigned by the National Park Service.\nFolger Park was first developed in the 1880s under the jurisdiction of the Office of Public Buildings and Grounds. The gravel walkways curved in symmetry around a central fountain plaza, creating a pattern of grass panels that were densely planted with a rich palette of flowering trees and shrubs. In 1936, the original picturesque design was replace by a new circulation pattern and more formal, symmetrical arrangement of vegetation.\nThe condition of this and other Washington, D.C. parks led to their major overhaul in the 1930s, with funding from President Franklin D. Roosevelt\u2019s New Deal programs. The plan included the development of new circulation systems that established axial alignments of walkways, oriented to the cardinal directions. Simpler vegetative palettes, comprising lines of street trees circling the park and informally arranged trees on the grass panels, replaced the earlier profusion of trees and shrubs.\nA 1905 plan shows the curving path system and dense planting of the first Folger Park design.\n1905 Survey, in 2005 Folger Park Cultural Landscapes Inventory\nToday, the appearance of Folger Park is mostly the result of that 1936 redesign, carried out by the National Park Service with funds from the Public Works Administration. In the redesign, a flagstone plaza and a shallow, octagonal wading pool in the center of the park were surrounded by Art Deco features.\nThe redesigned circulation and planting plan for Folger Park replaced the winding paths with a strong geometry.\nFrom its development in the mid-1880s through the end of the 19th century, Folger Park appears to have been well-maintained. In 1905, it still retained an abundance of native and non-native plantings. By the 1920s, however, many of its trees and shrubs had been lost. Aside from vegetation, the park has not changed greatly since 1936. It is not known how much of the 1936 planting plan was carried out, as the vegetation conforms only in the most general way to the 1936 plan. A photograph of 1964 showing one quadrant of the park suggests the planting was mostly implemented, but most of the trees have since died.\nView north from the southeast corner of the park.\nThe redesigned Folger Park featured a cross-shaped walk set within an oval walk that ran near the park\u2019s boundary. Entrances at the mid-points of each of the four sides led to a central plaza, paved with flagstones and featuring an octagonal wading pool. This layout remains largely intact today. Identical drinking fountain flanked by twin benches were placed at the east and west ends of the long axis. A plaque depicting the park\u2019s new plan was placed in the wall behind each fountain.\nSometime before 1964, the wading pool was converted into a planter for annuals and roses. A 1984 planting plan called for the addition of several new trees to augment existing vegetation. Today, the lines of street trees remain, though most of them have numerous gaps.\nMost of the park\u2019s small-scale features date from the 1936 redesign. The iron frame and wood-slat benches are a design developed for National Capital Parks in the mid-1930s, and the quarter-round concrete curbs are a type of boundary element that was first used in the city parks in 1904-1905. The most important vistas from the park are along its east-west and north-south axes. The view to the south opens out to a large green space, former site of Providence Hospital.\nPeriods of Significance: 1791-1792; 1936\nTags: cultural landscape NCR capitol hill Washington DC L'Enfant urban park redesign national capital parks-east",

        "title": "The Entrepreneurial Generation - The New York Times",
        "raw_content": "SundayReview|Generation Sell\nBy WILLIAM DERESIEWICZ NOV. 12, 2011\nCredit Josh Cochran and Mike Perry\nEVER since I moved three years ago to Portland, Ore., that hotbed of all things hipster, I\u2019ve been trying to get a handle on today\u2019s youth culture. The style is easy enough to describe \u2014 the skinny pants, the retro hats, the wall-to-wall tattoos. But style is superficial. The question is, what\u2019s underneath? What idea of life? What stance with respect to the world?\nPrevious youth cultures \u2014 beatniks, hippies, punks, slackers \u2014 could be characterized by two related things: the emotion or affect they valorized and the social form they envisioned. For the hippies, the emotion was love: love-ins, free love, the Summer of Love, all you need is love. The social form was utopia, understood in collective terms: the commune, the music festival, the liberation movement.\nThe beatniks aimed at ecstasy, embodied as a social form in individual transcendence. Theirs was a culture of jazz, with its spontaneity; of marijuana, arresting time and flooding the soul with pleasure (this was before the substance became the background drug of every youth culture); of flight, on the road, to the West; of the quest for the perfect moment.\nThe punks were all about rage, their social program nihilistic anarchy. \u201cGet pissed,\u201d Johnny Rotten sang. \u201cDestroy.\u201d Hip-hop, punk\u2019s younger brother, was all about rage and nihilism, too, at least until it turned to a vision of individual aggrandizement.\nAs for the slackers of the late \u201980s and early \u201990s (Generation X, grunge music, the fiction of David Foster Wallace), their affect ran to apathy and angst, a sense of aimlessness and pointlessness. Whatever. That they had no social vision was precisely what their social vision was: a defensive withdrawal from all commitment as inherently phony.\nSo what\u2019s the affect of today\u2019s youth culture? Not just the hipsters, but the Millennial Generation as a whole, people born between the late \u201970s and the mid-\u201990s, more or less \u2014 of whom the hipsters are a lot more representative than most of them care to admit. The thing that strikes me most about them is how nice they are: polite, pleasant, moderate, earnest, friendly. Rock \u2019n\u2019 rollers once were snarling rebels or chest-beating egomaniacs. Now the presentation is low-key, self-deprecating, post-ironic, eco-friendly. When Vampire Weekend appeared on \u201cThe Colbert Report\u201d last year to plug their album \u201cContra,\u201d the host asked them, in view of the title, what they were against. \u201cClosed-mindedness,\u201d they said.\nAccording to one of my students at Yale, where I taught English in the last decade, a colleague of mine would tell his students that they belonged to a \u201cpost-emotional\u201d generation. No anger, no edge, no ego.\nWhat is this about? A rejection of culture-war strife? A principled desire to live more lightly on the planet? A matter of how they were raised \u2014 everybody\u2019s special and everybody\u2019s point of view is valid and everybody\u2019s feelings should be taken care of?\nPerhaps a bit of each, but mainly, I think, something else. The millennial affect is the affect of the salesman. Consider the other side of the equation, the Millennials\u2019 characteristic social form. Here\u2019s what I see around me, in the city and the culture: food carts, 20-somethings selling wallets made from recycled plastic bags, boutique pickle companies, techie start-ups, Kickstarter, urban-farming supply stores and bottled water that wants to save the planet.\nToday\u2019s ideal social form is not the commune or the movement or even the individual creator as such; it\u2019s the small business. Every artistic or moral aspiration \u2014 music, food, good works, what have you \u2014 is expressed in those terms.\nCall it Generation Sell.\nBands are still bands, but now they\u2019re little businesses, as well: self-produced, self-published, self-managed. When I hear from young people who want to get off the careerist treadmill and do something meaningful, they talk, most often, about opening a restaurant. Nonprofits are still hip, but students don\u2019t dream about joining one, they dream about starting one. In any case, what\u2019s really hip is social entrepreneurship \u2014 companies that try to make money responsibly, then give it all away.\nIt\u2019s striking. Forty years ago, even 20 years ago, a young person\u2019s first thought, or even second or third thought, was certainly not to start a business. That was selling out \u2014 an idea that has rather tellingly disappeared from our vocabulary. Where did it come from, this change? Less Reaganism, as a former student suggested to me, than Clintonism \u2014 the heroic age of dot-com entrepreneurship that emerged during the Millennials\u2019 childhood and youth. Add a distrust of large organizations, including government, as well as the sense, a legacy of the last decade, that it\u2019s every man for himself.\nBecause this isn\u2019t only them. The small business is the idealized social form of our time. Our culture hero is not the artist or reformer, not the saint or scientist, but the entrepreneur. (Think of Steve Jobs, our new deity.) Autonomy, adventure, imagination: entrepreneurship comprehends all this and more for us. The characteristic art form of our age may be the business plan.\nAND that, I think, is the real meaning of the Millennial affect \u2014 which is, like the entrepreneurial ideal, essentially everyone\u2019s now. Today\u2019s polite, pleasant personality is, above all, a commercial personality. It is the salesman\u2019s smile and hearty handshake, because the customer is always right and you should always keep the customer happy. If you want to get ahead, said Benjamin Franklin, the original business guru, make yourself pleasing to others.\nI was contacted recently by a young man who plans to start a Web site to promote the need for reading and reflection to people of his generation. Not just promote it, though, of course, but market it. When he asked me for advice, I suggested he begin by pointing out the superficiality of so much social media. Well, he said, I agree with that idea, that\u2019s a big premise of what I\u2019m trying to do, but I wouldn\u2019t want to come across as negative, because that turns people off. If they think you\u2019re criticizing them, they won\u2019t want to buy what you\u2019re selling.\nThat kind of thinking is precisely what I\u2019m talking about, what lies behind the bland, inoffensive, smile-and-a-shoeshine personality \u2014 the stay-positive, other-directed, I\u2019ll-be-whoever-you-want-me-to-be personality \u2014 that everybody has today. Yes, we\u2019re vicious, anonymously, on the comment threads of public Web sites, but when we speak in our own names, on Facebook and so forth, we\u2019re strenuously cheerful, conciliatory, well-groomed. (In fact, one of the reasons we\u2019re so vicious, I\u2019m convinced, is to relieve the psychic pressure of all that affability.) They say that people in Hollywood are always nice to everyone they meet, in that famously fake Hollywood way, because they\u2019re never certain whom they might be dealing with \u2014 it could be somebody who\u2019s more important than they realize, or at least, somebody who might become important down the road.\nWell, we\u2019re all in showbiz now, walking on eggshells, relentlessly tending our customer base. We\u2019re all selling something today, because even if we aren\u2019t literally selling something (though thanks to the Internet as well as the entrepreneurial ideal, more and more of us are), we\u2019re always selling ourselves. We use social media to create a product \u2014 to create a brand \u2014 and the product is us. We treat ourselves like little businesses, something to be managed and promoted.\nThe self today is an entrepreneurial self, a self that\u2019s packaged to be sold.\nIn \u201cBobos in Paradise,\u201d David Brooks articulated the phenomenon of the bourgeois bohemians, a class that merges respectable incomes with countercultural attitudes. Where, I wondered recently, do the real bohemians \u2014 the hipsters, in other words \u2014 fit into the scheme? Some are just bobos in training; others are destined to remain bohemians for life. But whatever their individual trajectories, hipsters possess a relationship to mainstream society that is radically different from that of their youth-culture forebears, and they have the bobos to thank. Indeed, they have them to thank for their very existence.\nThe rise of the bobos in the 1990s (when creativity became lucrative and money became cool) put a new kind of pressure on the true bohemians. Now they no longer stood in opposition to mainstream culture, as the beatniks did to the company men or the slackers did to the business boys. Now they looked exactly like it. Mainstream culture had come to them, and it drew them to itself. Et voil\u00e0, the hipster. Instead of having to get a haircut and a new wardrobe, not to mention a new set of friends, if you wanted to go over to the man, you just kept doing what you were doing, at gradually higher price points. Hence the hipster as Bobo-in-training, bohemia merging imperceptibly with the bourgeoisie.\nHipsters and bobos are symbiotic. I should know; I\u2019m a bobo in a hipster-bobo neighborhood \u2014 which is pretty much what I was looking for when I moved to Portland in the first place. We\u2019re all into organic food and progressive politics; we just have different relationships to the commodities through which those attitudes are expressed. Hipsters create bobo culture. They make or sell or serve, or simply pioneer, what bobos buy. Try to picture Allen Ginsberg having a chat with Don Draper, across the counter at the local coffeehouse, about the latest Lady Gaga video, and you\u2019ll realize how far we\u2019ve come.\nAll this is why, unlike those of previous youth cultures, the hipster ethos contains no element of rebellion, rejection or dissent \u2014 remarkably so, given that countercultural opposition would seem to be essential to the very idea of youth culture. That may in turn be why the hipster has proved to be so durable. The heyday of the hippies lasted for all of about two years. The punks and slackers held the stage for little more than half a decade each. That\u2019s the nature of rebellion: it needs to keep on happening. The punks rejected the mainstream, but they also rejected the previous rejection, hippiedom itself \u2014 which, by the late \u201970s, was something that old people (i.e. 28-year-olds) were into. But hipsters, who\u2019ve been around for 15 years or so, appear to have become a durable part of our cultural configuration.\nOr maybe not. These movements always have an economic substrate. The beatniks and hippies \u2014 love, ecstasy, transcendence, utopia \u2014 were products of the postwar boom. The punks and slackers and devotees of hip-hop \u2014 rage, angst, nihilism, withdrawal \u2014 arose within the long stagnation that lasted from the early \u201970s to the early \u201990s. The hipsters were born in the dot-com boom and flourished in the real estate bubble.\nAffability is a commercial virtue, but it is also the affect of people who feel themselves to be living in a fundamentally agreeable society. Already, the makings of a new youth culture may be locking into place.\nWilliam Deresiewicz is an essayist and critic, and the author of \u201cA\nJane Austen Education: How Six Novels Taught Me About Love, Friendship, and the Things That Really Matter.\u201d\nA version of this op-ed appears in print on November 13, 2011, on Page SR1 of the New York edition with the headline: Generation Sell.

        "title": "A Bloom in TV\u2019s Asian-American Desert - The New York Times",
        "raw_content": "Television|A Bloom in TV\u2019s Asian-American Desert\nA Bloom in TV\u2019s Asian-American Desert\nHudson Yang, the star of the ABC sitcom \u201cFresh Off the Boat,\u201d with his father, the cultural critic Jeff Yang.CreditCreditSasha Maslov for The New York Times\nOn \u201cFresh Off the Boat,\u201d the new ABC family sitcom based on the memoir of the same name by the rowdy, bawdy chef Eddie Huang, the young Eddie is played by Hudson Yang, an amiable 11-year-old with an air of preternatural chill. In the book, Eddie is a bit of a rabble-rouser, but on the show, he\u2019s a fast-learning fish out of water with a gift for comic self-presentation.\nAt home, Hudson is part of a different legacy. His father, Jeff Yang, now a columnist for The Wall Street Journal, was one of the most prominent Asian-American cultural critics of the 1990s and a founder of A. Magazine, a glossy title highlighting influential Asian-Americans that aimed to capture an underdocumented cultural moment and to meaningfully brand Asian-American cool.\nScarfing down some after-school pizza with his father one recent day on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Hudson did not appear to be in the least frazzled about his place at the crossroads of decades of Asian-American cultural politics. He had recently returned to school after three months in California shooting the show\u2019s first season, and he had pre-algebra and the Indian subcontinent on his mind. \u201cI don\u2019t think the grades are gonna be very good, Daddy,\u201d he said with aw-shucks mischief.\nStill, Jeff Yang said, Hudson understands the big picture: \u201cHe\u2019s aware of the enterprise, if you will, and how different the enterprise that I was engaged in and grew up on is from the one he lives with.\u201d\nIt shouldn\u2019t be, but even in 2015, it\u2019s striking to have an Asian-American family at the core of a network sitcom. The last time that happened, it was 1994, and Margaret Cho, then a rising comic, was the star of \u201cAll-American Girl,\u201d also on ABC, which focused on a Korean-American family. It did poorly, getting canceled after one season. And not quite wittingly, Mr. Yang had a hand in its demise.\nFrom left: Ian Chen, Constance Wu, Mr. Yang, Randall Park and Forrest Wheeler on the show.CreditGilles Mingasson/ABC\nAt the time, he was the television critic for The Village Voice, where he wrote an anguished but firmly negative review of the show: \u201cThe situation is humdrum \u2014 20-something slack-queen clashes symbols with her loving but hopelessly trad family. The writing is awful, larded with stereotypes and dusty gags from \u2018Full House\u2019 \u2019s cutting-room floor.\u201d\nAt the time there were not many Asian-American television critics, and Mr. Yang\u2019s piece landed hard. Ms. Cho called him up and chewed him out, telling him that the network would use it to argue that \u201cnot even the community was behind this show.\u201d (She also addressed the demise in her one-woman stand-up show \u201cI\u2019m the One That I Want.\u201d)\nMr. Yang stopped short of regret for what he wrote but noted, \u201cI don\u2019t think anybody thought back then that we\u2019d have 20 years of wandering in the desert.\u201d\nSo much time has passed that drawing direct comparisons between the two shows isn\u2019t particularly useful. In terms of how they represent the Asian-American experience, they couldn\u2019t be more different in perspective and scope, even down to the titles, a sugarcoated wink as opposed to a repurposed term of insult.\nThe deeply neutered \u201cAll-American Girl,\u201d in effect \u201capologized for the Asianness of this family,\u201d Mr. Yang said, by filtering it through the lens of traditional white sitcom values. On \u201cFresh Off the Boat,\u201d about an immigrant family of Taiwanese descent making its way in white America with varying degrees of success, it\u2019s the white perspective that\u2019s foreign. It is also a memoir about falling under the spell of hip-hop at a time when, for an outsider, that could feel like a more or less solitary pursuit. (The first two episodes will be shown on Wednesday, and the following week, it will switch to its regular Tuesday time slot.)\nMr. Yang and Brooke Baumer.CreditGilles Mingasson/ABC\nBoth series in their own ways have underscored tensions about how Asian-Americans can be represented in the mainstream. And both arrived with similar stakes: Whether designed to be a universally relatable representation or birthed from one person\u2019s singular vision, it was the only one in sight.\n\u201cIt freaks me out that if it doesn\u2019t work for some reason, it\u2019ll be another 20-year drought,\u201d said Melvin Mar, one of the executive producers of \u201cFresh Off the Boat,\u201d who said he had read countless scripts by Asian-Americans in search of one he wanted to produce.\n\u201cYou have to remember we\u2019re not making a show just for Asian-Americans, we\u2019re making a show through the Asian-American point of view for everybody,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe work on the Fox lot, so everything is compared to \u2018Modern Family,\u2019 so it became, \u2018We want to be the Chinese Steve Levitan!\u2019 \u201d (Mr. Levitan is a creator of that sitcom.)\nBut there is a boldness to \u201cFresh off the Boat\u201d that \u201cModern Family\u201d has largely let fizzle in recent seasons. As Eddie, Hudson moves with a casual swagger, the sort of kid who\u2019s convinced that he\u2019s older and smoother than he actually is but almost pulls it off. In one episode, he has someone deliver a pack of Skittles to a young white woman he has a crush on. Then he gives her a nod and shouts: \u201cGo on, girl! Taste the rainbow!\u201d\nIt isn\u2019t lost on Mr. Yang that his son is playing the role of the person who is almost single-handedly rewriting \u2014 or undermining \u2014 the narrative of his own critical work. \u201cIt\u2019s amazing the degree to which Eddie makes me feel like the establishment,\u201d he said. \u201cHe lacks that whole desire to defer that Asian culture tends to inculcate in us. In being defiantly Asian-American, he has been redefining what it means to be Asian-American.\u201d\nThe Eddie Huang memoir on which the show is based.CreditJake Guevara/The New York Times\nFor Mr. Huang, who has made sport of radical transparency and whose taste for truth has closed almost as many doors as it opened, this path wasn\u2019t exactly intentional. \u201cI do have a strategy,\u201d he conceded, \u201cbut it was to subvert everything anyone knew about Asian America.\u201d\nWhen he was young, he said, A. Magazine and its more upwardly mobile Asian-American aspiration was not on his radar. \u201cMy mom would literally drive me to the Blockbuster so I could read The Source,\u201d he said.\nIn writing his book, he went out of his way \u201cnot to just write about being Asian \u2014 my experience was bigger than that. We have solidarity as people of color in this country. I never wanted to be a union scab.\u201d\nAnd so his entree into the mainstream came not through assimilation into white mainstream America, but through a side door: an embrace of black culture as a lingua franca of outsiderness. In the pilot, the young Eddie is rejected in the lunchroom until a blond boy sees his Biggie Smalls T-shirt and invites him over, prompting the one black child in the cafeteria to exclaim, \u201cA white dude and an Asian dude bonding over a black dude \u2014 this cafeteria\u2019s ridiculous!\u201d\nSome moments in the show, like the one in the pilot in which young Eddie is called a racial epithet, are drawn more or less directly from Mr. Huang\u2019s memoir. Others, like the above, are fabrications. Mr. Huang has been vocal in opposition to some of the differences between the show and his book. But producers and writers were, broadly speaking, true to his story of cross-racial solidarity. \u201cThe new generation of people, I think, are ready for this show,\u201d Hudson said. \u201cMy friends are not racist in any way.\u201d\nMr. Huang at a panel discussion.CreditMario Anzuoni/Reuters\nBefore joining the cast, Hudson had only one credit, a small part in an independent film. He had originally auditioned for the role of the middle brother, but Mr. Huang responded enthusiastically to his tape. \u201cHe was a really cool kid, irreverent, and he didn\u2019t care,\u201d he said.\nHe was cast despite his limited experience, and at the first full table read, Hudson, not acclimated to the professional setting, was visibly restless, worrying executives. But despite the hiccups, his father said, \u201cI had this feeling that I was at the ringside of history in the making.\u201d He likened the experience to attending the first Obama inauguration.\nThat this milestone came through someone whose identity battles were very different from his own does not faze Mr. Yang. \u201cFor those of us in the community covering the community, things always seem to be changing, then we step on that rake that tells us, \u2018Not yet, not now,\u2019 \u201d he said.\nWitnessing Mr. Huang\u2019s success, he said, was \u201csomething incredibly aspirational, on some level, to those of us who have one foot in and one foot out.\u201d\nMr. Huang\u2019s show, his memoir, the way his life has unfolded \u2014 \u201cit isn\u2019t even intentionally against\u201d the vision of Asian America that Mr. Yang spent so much time building, he said.\n\u201cI just wasn\u2019t aware,\u201d Mr. Huang added. \u201cI was shamed for a long time for not being Asian enough. Everyone called me \u2018rotten banana\u2019; everyone gave me a hard time.\u201d\nHe wants Hudson to wave his own flag, even if it means gradually erasing traces of the memoirist from a show based on his life. \u201cI try to tell him, \u2018Don\u2019t worry about being me,\u2019 \u201d Mr. Huang said, adding, \u201cAt some point, you have to transcend race and be an individual.\u201d\nA picture caption last Sunday with an article about the new sitcom \u201cFresh Off the Boat,\u201d based on the memoir by the chef Eddie Huang, misspelled the surname of an actress on the show. Her name is Constance Wu, not Yu.\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page AR24 of the New York edition with the headline: A Bloom in TV\u2019s Asian-American Desert.

One person's weird is another person's wonderful. Some things manage to be both weird and wonderful! Or wonderful but weird. Whatever.\nHere I introduce a few of both. I have given a bit of an introduction to the particular topic and one or two web sites where you can find out more. They are only a start. I have to point out that many of the sites are written by people who fanatically believe in what they are saying, or people who fanatically disbelieve, so take them all with the proverbial grain of salt.\nNevertheless, they are interesting, if only to show you some of the weird things that people believe in or do. I don't pass judgement. I'm all for individual beliefs providing they do no-one any harm.

There, one of the town's respected citizens has had a terrible vision of fire and destruction. Her garbled words are taken as prophetic instruction on how to avoid the coming disaster.

        "raw_content": "A musician is also a person\n'When you hear the sound of nuns chanting, it's like an immediate escape from the challenges, stresses, noise and pace of modern living. You're given a glimpse of a secret world of peace and calm - Tom Lewis, Head of A&R at Decca Records\nMy header photo shows the Abbaye de Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation at Le Barroux in France. The quote below it comes from Voices - Chant from Avignon, the official website of the new CD from the nuns of the Abbey. This album was released on Nov. 8 and Decca is hoping it will chart over the Christmas period. To achieve this the label are running TV commercials in the UK, which is very unusual for a classical release. The official Chant from Avignon website provides a great introduction to the album. But there are also some aspects of the nuns \"secret world of peace and calm\" not mentioned there that deserve to be shared.\nThe Abbaye de Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation at Le Barroux, which was founded in 1979, is a sister house of the community of monks at the nearby Abbaye Sainte-Madeleine. This was formed in 1970 by Dom G\u00e9rard Calvet, scion of the wealthy Calvet Bordeaux wine dynasty, as a reaction against the cautiously liberalising reforms of the Second Vatican Council. For almost two decades the monastery at Le Barroux was aligned with the far right Catholic traditionalists Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and his Society of St. Pius X.\nA degree of notoriety is attached to the Society of St. Pius X, Archbishop Lefebvre and other elements within the traditionalist Catholic movement. As described here previously, in 1994 France's most notorious war criminal, Paul Touvier, was defended by a traditionalist Catholic lawyer and a priest from the Society of Saint Pius X founded by Lefebvre sat beside Touvier throughout his trial and acted as his spiritual advisor.\nPaul Touvier had been on the run in France for a total of 35 years and was sheltered during that period in a number of traditionalist Catholic monasteries, although there is no evidence that he was given refuge at Le Barroux. At his trial Touvier was found guilty of crimes against humanity and was sentenced to life imprisonment. As well as being involved in the massacre of seven Jews at Rillieux-la-Pape in 1944, Touvier was linked to the murder of Victor Basch and his wife Ilona. Basch was the former president of the League of Human Rights which in the 1890s had led the defence of Alfred Dreyfus, the Jewish French army captain falsely accused of treason.\nFrench police had arrested Paul Touvier in May 1989 at the priory of Saint-Joseph de Nice run by followers of Archbishop Lefebvre. Just one year earlier the monastic community at Le Barroux had split from Lefebvre over his decisions to consecrate bishops without Vatican approval. This split brought reconciliation with the Vatican and today Pope Benedict XVI is considered to be an ally of the two monasteries at Le Barroux.\nThere are many who will say none of this is relevant to a CD released in 2010. But I hold a different view. Paul Touvier's high profile trial took place just sixteen years ago, which is within the lifetime of the youngest nuns at Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation. Yes, the monastic community there had distanced itself from Archbishop Lefebvre six years previously. But today the community at Le Barroux remains firmly traditionalist Catholic and holds views on topics such as homosexuality and religious inclusivity that are at variance with those commonly accepted elsewhere.\nIn small villages in France where there are traditionalist Catholic monasteries the block voting of the monastics can be an important factor in elections. During the second round of the 2010 regional elections in the commune of Le Barroux far right National Front party leader Jean Marie Le Pen came a close third with 30% of the 339 votes. This video shows another National Front politician Bruno Gollnisch speaking in Le Barroux village in October 2010 in support of Le Pen. Gollnisch, who is part of the Catholic faction within the National Front, has previously been tried and acquitted on appeal for contesting the existence of crimes against humanity and he publicly supports the French Government's move to deport the Roma.\nBy signing a deal with Decca and by becoming internet and Facebook properties the nuns of Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation at Le Barroux have held themselves up to public scrutiny. As part of this, their music making needs to be put into a wider context than is offered by Decca's carefully orchestrated PR campaign and the resulting fawning mainstream media coverage.\nI am not suggesting that the nuns' glorious CD should be boycotted because of their traditionalist Catholic views. In fact, I hope many people buy the disc and go on to appreciate both the riches of sacred music and the infinite possibilities of the spiritual realm. But On An Overgrown Path has always followed Pablo Casals' credo that a musician is also a person. By choosing to become media properties the nuns at the Abbaye de Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation are now people as well as contemplatives. Which is why I have written this article.\n* An update on this story here.\nAlso on Facebook and Twitter. Header photo is (c) On An Overgrown Path 2010.

        "raw_content": "F-Secure recently published a new report, and their findings are disturbing.\nThe click rates on spam emails increased to 14.2 percent for the second half of 2017, up from 13.4 percent reported in the first half of 2017.\nThe increase seems to be driven by two factors.\nFirst, more intense targeting of smartphone users, who are typically more distracted and not paying as much attention when opening and reading emails.\nSecond, a slight increase in sophistication. For instance, an email that appears to come from a known sender is 12 percent more likely to be opened and responded to, so hackers are using this approach more often.\nEven so, the report isn't all bad news. While spam is still the most common means of attack, it's highly inefficient, relying on brute force (volume) rather than an abundance of sophistication. Second, the report reveals that 85 percent of malicious attachments are made up of just five file types:\nKnowing this, a savvy user who's paying attention can more easily avoid falling into the trap of the hackers.\n46 percent of all spam campaigns are related to online dating\n23 percent contain the malicious attachments described above\n31 percent contain links to malicious websites\nSean Sullivan, an F-Secure Security Advisor had this to say about the report:\n\"We've reduced criminals to spam, one of the least effective methods of infection. Anti-malware is containing nearly all commoditized bulk threats. And honestly, I don't see anything coming over the horizon that could lead to another gold rush, so criminals are stuck with spam.\"\nOverall, the report is bad news mixed with some good. One thing it clearly underscores is the continuing importance of ongoing email education for all employees of companies of any size.\nSingle Hacker Convicted For Over 2 Million US Credit Card Thefts\n5 Cool Tech Gifts Under $100",

The T-helper cell plays an essential part in the immune system by helping to co-ordinate all the other cells to fight illnesses. A major reduction in the number of T-helper cells can have a serious effect on the immune system.\nA CD4 test measures the number of T-helper cells (in a cubic millimetre of blood) which is known as a CD4 count. Someone who is not infected with HIV normally has between 500 and 1200 cells/mm3. In a person infected with HIV, the CD4 count often declines over a number of years. A CD4 test is used to determine when a person should start ARV treatment.\nNormally the Paballong Centre sends blood samples to Maseru for testing in the government-funded testing sites. However, occasionally these testing facilities are not operational, so a machine at the Centre will enable the health professionals to conduct their own testing on-site.\nThe Netherlands Paballong Trust and the Paballong UK Trust have co-funded the supply of a CD4 machine to the Centre, as well as a year\u2019s supply of reagents.\nNewer PostWorld AIDS Day Campaign",

I just stayed really calm in between (prelims and finals).\"\nThe Americans ended the meet with 23 medals overall, including 8 gold, 10 silver and 5 bronze.

        "raw_content": "5 proposals made to Government to reform immigration detention\nThe Joint Committee on Human Rights (JCHR) makes 5 proposals to the Government to reform the immigration detention system. They conclude that the current system should be urgently reformed so that it becomes \u201cfair, humane, decent and quick\u201d.\nMajor reforms needed\nThe report proposes major reforms to immigration detention decision-making, including better access to legal advice, more protection for the vulnerable and improved detention conditions.\nThey said that more needed to be done to make detention estates \u201cless like prisons\u201d recommending that there should be an end to the distressing nature of indefinite detention and that decisions to detain need to be made independently from the Home Office.\nFive proposals to reform the immigration detention system\nThe decision to detain should not be made by the Home Office but should be made independently.\nIntroduce a 28 day time limit to end the trauma of indefinite detention.\nDetainees should have better and more consistent access to legal aid to challenge their detention.\nMore needs to be done identify vulnerable individuals and treat them appropriately.\nThe Home Office should improve the oversight and assurance mechanism in the immigration detention estate to ensure that any ill-treatment of abuse is found out immediately and action is taken. Concerns over the distressing effect of indeterminate detention\nFormer detainees associated detention with 'mental torture'\nFormer detainees who gave evidence to the Committee described the indeterminate nature of detention and uncertainty associated with it as \"mental torture.\"\nThe monitoring bodies, Her Majesty\u2019s Inspectorate of Prisons (HMIP) and the Independent Monitoring Boards (IMB) expressed serious concerns about open-ended nature of detention and the impact this had on individuals.\nHMIP told us that it regularly finds individuals held in detention for extended periods of time, giving the examples of an individual who was detained at Harmondsworth IRC for more than four and half years, and another at Yarl\u2019s Wood for three years.\nBoth monitoring bodies said that when speaking to detainees during inspections or visits, the indeterminate nature of immigration detention is a key cause of distress and anxiety.\nHarriet Harman MP, Chair of the Joint Committee on Human Rights, said:\n\u201cIf a person is suspected of a crime, they cannot be detained by the Government; they can be detained only by the police, who are independent of Government.\nIf the police want to continue to detain a person beyond 36 hours, they have to bring that person before a court, which is, of course, totally independent of Government.\nBut if the Home Office suspects a person of being in breach of our immigration laws, there is a complete absence of independence in the decision making.\nA civil servant\u2014nameless, faceless and behind closed doors\u2014just ticks a box to detain them.\nThe first that person will know about it is when someone bangs on their door in the early hours of the morning to bundle them into an immigration enforcement van and take them to a detention centre.\nWith no independence in the decision making, and with no scrutiny or accountability, mistakes are inevitable.\nThose we get to hear about are probably only the tip of the iceberg, but we do know that \u00a321 million was paid out by the Home Office in just five years to compensate for wrongful detention, and terrible mistakes are certainly what happened in the Windrush cases.\nIt is routinely said those people were unable to prove their residence here, which is not the case for the detainees we saw.\nWe looked at their Home Office files, which the Home Secretary was good enough to release to them, and it was not that there was no evidence of their residence here. There was masses of it, including records of national insurance contributions going back to the 1970s.\nIf there had been any independence in the decision making, these people would never have been detained, yet they were detained not once but twice.\nThe papers in their files were ignored, and the pleas of their families were swept aside.\nAfter the right to life, the right not to be unlawfully detained is one of the most important human rights.\nIt should not be the case that a person has fewer protections from wrongful detention as an immigrant than they would if they had actually committed a crime.\nWe should ensure that, in future, no one is detained unless the decision is taken independently.\nThe Home Office should make its case, but someone independent must take the decision if a person is to be deprived of their liberty.\nThe Joint Committee on Human Rights will table an amendment to that effect, and we hope the Government will agree to it.\u201d\nWide range of evidence considered in inquiry\nThe Committee took a wide range of evidence from:\nformer detainees\nthe Home Office Minister Caroline Noakes MP and officials\ngroups such as Detention Action, Liberty, Amnesty International, Mind, Freed Voices, INQUEST and Stonewall amongst others.\nThe full list of evidence taken can be found on the Committee\u2019s website here.\nMore news on: Parliament, government and politics, Parliament, Asylum, immigration and nationality, International affairs, Human rights, Immigration, House of Commons news, House of Lords news, Commons news, Lords news, Committee news\nImmigration detention (PDF 524KB)",

Here are five of authors Daniel Pink and Ann Patchett\u2019s favorite books of 2017. You can hear more of their picks on tonight\u2019s PBS NewsHour.\nCredit: HarperCollins\n1. \u201cHunger\u201d by Roxane Gay (Memoir)\n\u201cIt\u2019s a book on Roxane Gay\u2019s life. She was raped as a child, she didn\u2019t tell anyone. Didn\u2019t tell her parents. \u2026 She just continued to eat as a way of building a wall between the world and herself,\u201d said Patchett. \u201cI think it\u2019s a terrific book for anyone who\u2019s had addiction problems (and) who\u2019s dealing with people who have addiction problems. Or maybe anybody who feels that they\u2019re a little bit judgmental. The idea is you take care of yourself, I\u2019ll take care of myself \u2026 a very, very moving and important book.\u201d\nCredit: Liveright\n2. \u201cCuz: The Life and Times of Michael A.\u201d by Danielle Allen (Memoir)\n\u201cThis one is also a memoir. It\u2019s written by Danielle Allen, who\u2019s a political theorist at Harvard. \u2026 Her aunt Karen had a son named Michael, and Michael got in trouble with the law big time, when he was about 15 years old,\u201d said Pink. \u201cThis is a story about, how did one cousin go one way, and this other cousin become a professor at Harvard? But it\u2019s also about her attempts, and her family\u2019s attempts, to save this kid, who, admittedly did some really terrible things, but at another level was a victim of circumstance. \u2026 You read this book feeling a sense of despair and injustice, but also wanting to do something about it.\u201d\n3. \u201cChemistry\u201d by Weike Wang (Novel)\n\u201cYou start to read it and you think it\u2019s almost chic-lit. It\u2019s funny, it\u2019s snappy, its sentences are very crisp and short. It\u2019s about a young woman who\u2019s getting her PhD in chemistry at Harvard and the farther you go into it, the darker it gets,\u201d said Patchett. \u201cShe\u2019s a first-generation Chinese-American. It\u2019s about the pressure of her parents and the complete crack-up as she can\u2019t bear the pressure of trying to fulfill everybody else\u2019s expectations.\u201d\n4. \u201cThe All or Nothing Marriage\u201d by Eli Finkel (Non-fiction)\n\u201cFinkel\u2019s big point here is that while the institution of marriage, in general, in America is declining, the best marriages today are better than any time in history,\u201d said Pink. \u201cHe traces the history of marriage in America from \u2026 essentially an economic pact, to later on, about love and companionship to today, where he argues that marriage is very much about self-expression \u2014 I want a partner who can help me become my best self and self-express.\u201d\n5. \u201cAnything Is Possible: A Novel\u201d by Elizabeth Strout\n\u201cFor those of you who enjoyed \u2018My Name is Lucy Barton\u2019 last year, these are connected stories that surround Lucy Barton\u2019s life and her town where she grew up,\u201d said Patchett. \u201cI was glad to get more information about these people. Boy, as I went along in this book I went from thinking it was a good book to thinking it was brilliant. It just gets deeper and more complicated. She ranges out so far in every direction with the Lucy Barton character. And it is every bit as good if not better than the first.\u201d\nLeft: Authors Daniel Pink and Ann Patchett list their top books of 2017.\nThe best reads of 2017, from Ann Patchett and Daniel Pink\n5 memoirs about family you need to read, from Amy Tan\n5 mystery novels you should seek out now\nnewshour bookshelf",

        "raw_content": "U.S. Cellular to Launch LTE This Year\nVerizon Pushes Fast LTE Expansion\nCisco's Cius Tablet Coming to Verizon LTE\nU.S. Cellular Throws Its 4G LTE Hat in the Ring\nU.S. Cellular will roll out an LTE (Long-Term Evolution) mobile wireless network, reaching more than 25 percent of its subscribers by the holiday season late this year.\nThe deployment plan, announced Friday, represents a major acceleration of its plans compared with the timing indicated by an executive's statement last year. Steven Campbell, the company's chief financial officer, said last November that U.S. Cellular would test LTE this year and begin a commercial rollout in 2012, according to news reports. A launch in time for the U.S. holiday season would mean the network would be available by the end of November. U.S. Cellular has about 6.1 million subscribers.\nLTE is designed to deliver several megabits per second both upstream and downstream, though the speed that individual subscribers enjoy is based on a variety of factors. Verizon Wireless has said its LTE network delivers between 5M bps (bits per second) and 12M bps, about 10 times the average speed of EV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized), the 3G technology that both Verizon and U.S. Cellular use. U.S. Cellular did not estimate how fast its LTE network will be.\nAs a second-tier mobile operator, U.S. Cellular is focused on some markets that may receive less attention from the four major U.S. carriers. Its first phase of deployment will bring LTE to 24 market areas, including Milwaukee, Madison and Racine, Wisconsin; Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Davenport, Iowa; Portland and Bangor, Maine; and Greenville, North Carolina. None of these cities was part of Verizon's initial rollout, though that carrier has said it will rapidly expand its LTE coverage this year to include about 140 more cities.\nU.S. Cellular said it will introduce a portfolio of LTE devices during the first phase of the network rollout and expand those offerings throughout 2012.\nMetroPCS, another second-tier carrier, was the first to launch LTE commercially in the U.S., starting in September 2010. Verizon rival AT&T plans to bring LTE to market later this year.",

        "raw_content": "Google Rolls out Social Search in 19 Languages\nMicrosoft Deepens Bing's Use of Facebook Data\nExperts: Google's +1 Has Minuses\nBing, Facebook Deepen Ties, Threaten Google +1\nGoogle boosted its social search efforts on Thursday by disclosing plans to make it available to users outside the U.S. in 19 languages in the coming week.\nThe move capitalizes on the global popularity of social media and its increasing impact on search, and follows on the news of increased integration between Facebook and Microsoft's Bing search engine earlier this week.\nSocial Search will add more languages later, Google said in a blog post.\nA social search feature available in the U.S. now that will also make its debut abroad later is Google's +1 button and data, which is designed to let Google search users recommend results and share that feedback with others. It is similar to Facebook's \"Like\" button.\nGoogle, whose search engine is by far the most popular in the world, finds itself at a disadvantage in social search, due to the tight partnership between social-networking powerhouse Facebook and Microsoft.\nMicrosoft, which owns a stake in Facebook and partners with it in various ways, including advertising, has deeper access to Facebook data than Google and other search players.\nIn particular, Microsoft is mining Facebook \"Like\"-button data to power Bing Social and populate query results with links and notifications from people's Facebook friends.\nGoogle, on the other hand, has access to shallower Facebook data, but, like Bing, it also uses public data from Twitter posts and from other sources, including its own Google services, to power its social search features.\nTo access Google's Social Search, users have to be logged into their Google account, and they have to link the account to the social media services from Google and other providers that they want Google to factor into their query resolutions.\nSocial search services like the ones from Google and Microsoft's Bing match posts made by a user's social media contacts that are relevant to the query terms entered for a particular search.\nThat way, if the user is searching for information about a restaurant or a city, he will see in the results links and comments his social media contacts have posted.\nThe idea is that this type of input from friends and acquaintances can carry important weight when people are looking for advice and help in making a decision.\nWhile the Bing-Facebook connection is clearly an advantage for Microsoft at this point, it's quite possible that Google will at some point strike its own deal with Facebook.\nIn the meantime, while all search providers agree that social search is an important, emerging area, it hasn't affected the overall popularity of the different engines, as Google remains dominant in the U.S. and abroad.",

        "raw_content": "$85 billion AT&T, Time Warner deal under scrutiny from politicians, consumer groups\nAT&T said Saturday it will acquire Time Warner for $85.4 billion\nAT&T will acquire Time Warner for $85.4B in content play\nWhat will consumers gain from AT&T's DirecTV buy?\nSenators: Comcast deal could mean higher broadband prices\nThe plan by AT&T to acquire Time Warner for US$85.4 billion has come under the microscope of U.S. politicians and public interest groups that are concerned about the antitrust implications of the mega-deal.\nOn Saturday, Randall Stephenson, AT&T chairman and CEO, said the deal would let it combine premium content with the networks to deliver it to every screen, including mobile displays.\nBut many politicians including Democratic party presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her Republican rival Donald Trump are concerned about the implications of the deal.\nU.S. Senators Mike Lee, a Republican from Utah, and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Antitrust, Competition Policy, and Consumer Rights, and ranking member Amy Klobuchar, a Democrat from Minnesota, said they will hold in November a subcommittee hearing on the proposed acquisition.\n\u201cWe have carefully examined consolidation in these industries to ensure that existing market leaders do not block or co-opt new options for receiving video content or exercise disproportionate control over the video content market,\u201d the senators said Sunday. \u201cWe will continue to carefully review and investigate any consolidation in this industry to makes sure that it does not harm consumers.\u201d\nThere is concern that as the owner of pipes to the consumer such as DirecTV, the satellite TV company it acquired last year, and its broadband and mobile services, AT&T could skew the market by giving preference to content from Time Warner over that of its rivals.\nDirecTV might favor Time Warner content by crowding out or refusing to carry other programming that viewers might prefer, wrote John Bergmayer, senior counsel at Public Knowledge, a public interest organization in Washington, D.C., when press reports of the proposed acquisition first started making the rounds.\nAT&T might also make it expensive or difficult for competitors to DirecTV or to its streaming service to access Time Warner programs, so as to drive customers to its own platforms, Bergmayer said in a statement last week, which expressed similar concerns about AT&T favoring its own content on its broadband networks.\nClinton has also weighed in favor of a close scrutiny by regulators of the AT&T-Time Warner deal, her spokesman told reporters on Sunday. Brian Fallon said that there were \u201ca number of questions and concerns\u201d about the proposed acquisition \u201cbut there\u2019s still a lot of information that needs to come out before any conclusions should be reached,\u201d according to Reuters.\nHer Republican rival Donald Trump had earlier stated that his administration would block the deal, claiming it would result in \u201ctoo much concentration of power in the hands of too few.\u201d\nThe Twitter account of Senator Bernie Sanders, who earlier withdrew his bid for the Democratic party nomination, on Sunday tweeted that \u201cthe administration should kill the Time Warner/AT&T merger. This deal would mean higher prices and fewer choices for the American people.\u201d\nAT&T expects that the transaction with Time Warner will close by the end of 2017, and said it was subject to review by the U.S. Department of Justice, and possibly the Federal Communications Commission to the extent that FCC licenses may have to be transferred to AT&T under the deal. But AT&T may be too optimistic about the time line as political and other forces line up against the deal.\nA similar acquisition proposal by Comcast to acquire NBC Universal in 2009 likewise came under regulatory scrutiny and the deal was finally cleared in 2011 after a number of conditions were imposed.\n\u201cAT&T\u2019s reported proposal to acquire Time Warner for more than $80 billion raises some immediate flags about consolidation in the media market, which is an area I\u2019ve worked to address for years,\u201d said Senator Al Franken in a statement Saturday. The senator from Minnesota said he would be asking for more details on the deal in the next few days as he was skeptical of huge media mergers because \u201cthey can lead to higher costs, fewer choices, and even worse service for consumers.\u201d\nFranken said regulators often agree as was evident when Comcast\u2019s bid to buy Time Warner Cable was stymied last year.\nAT&T\u2019s rivals are also likely to watch closely as events unfold, more so as Time Warner has been a coveted acquisition in the past. Disney has said that the deal will have to be reviewed by regulators. \u201cA transaction of this magnitude obviously warrants very close regulatory scrutiny,\u201d Zenia Mucha, chief communications officer for the Walt Disney Company, told some media outlets.\nLate Sunday, AT&T said that the editorial independence of CNN, a part of Time Warner, would be maintained. \u201cOur intent is to operate Time Warner as it operates today, with autonomy in its divisions,\u201d it said in a statement.",

Specifically, the research, based on a survey of 1,300 individuals in Marin County, found:\n92 percent of registered voters with disabilities\u2014those with impairments in mobility, manual dexterity, vision, hearing, or cognition\u2014reported that they voted in presidential or local elections, compared with a reported 97 percent turnout among voters without disabilities. Respondents with cognitive impairments had the lowest turnout at 85.7 percent.\nAlthough all polling places had accessible voting machines, since 2006, no more than 17 individuals countywide had used the technology in a statewide election. The report found no evidence that voters with a specific disability were more likely to use these machines.\n86.2 percent of voters with disabilities preferred to cast a ballot by mail versus voting in person at polling places or election offices compared with 73.3 percent among voters without a disability. California has permanent absentee voting: An individual can request mail ballots for all future elections, without providing a reason.\nPew\u2019s Elections Performance Index found that states with no-excuse or permanent mail voting had lower rates of nonvoting due to disability or illness in 2012: 14.7 percent compared with 18.6 percent for states with limited mail voting.",

        "title": "Rare Diseases: Prevalence, Drugs, and National Policies",
        "raw_content": "Rare Diseases: Prevalence, Drugs, and National Policies\nGovardhan Chary\nHow common are rare diseases and is enough being done to improve patient care?\nRare diseases are a set of conditions which affect a very small number of people when compared with more common conditions like diabetes or heart disease. There is no universal definition of rare diseases, and countries differ in the threshold they use to define a disease as \u2018rare\u2019.\nTable1: Rare disease prevalence (cases per population) across various countries.\nNew rare diseases are being discovered all the time but overall, there are about 5,000-8,000 rare diseases. Collectively, rare diseases affect approximately 6-10% of the population and 3-4% of childbirths. 80% of rare diseases have a genetic influence, and the rest may occur due to viral or bacterial infections, allergies, and other environmental causes.\nRare diseases exhibit substantial multiplicity in aetiology and clinical presentation, and most of them have severe effects on life expectancy, and physical and mental abilities. Many rare disease patients experience barriers in access to patient care, and fewer than 10% receive disease-specific treatment. Delayed diagnoses, limited access to resources, and absence of specific therapies often preclude patients from receiving proper, timely care. When patients are diagnosed, many are unable to access resources such as centers of expertise, coordinated care, patient support systems, and effective treatment. Therefore, research into the natural history and underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of rare diseases is necessary to develop a foundation for discovering targeted medications.\nApproximately 7% of people will be affected by rare diseases at some point in their lives, showing that rare diseases aren\u2019t so rare at all. Yet, over the years, their classification as rare has led them to often be ignored, with pharmaceutical companies and public health systems concentrating their efforts on developing treatments for diseases typically viewed as being more common.\nRecent strides in medical research have helped to make it possible for scientists to target rare diseases, and advocacy groups have been urging researchers in that direction. Sensing that the era of \u201cblockbuster\u201d drugs is coming to an end, pharmaceutical companies have also become more willing to direct their R&D departments to look at orphan drugs for new possibilities. This is why they have become a growing market \u2013 one that is, in fact, growing even faster than the market for traditional drugs, and which has some 400 drugs currently in development. Despite these advances in drug development, many rare diseases lack any treatment options.\nThere are a number of potential ways that have been considered to address this, including bringing in government-sponsored drug development, elevating the patient voice, and partnering in the development of programs to address the needs of patients with rare diseases.\nNational policies for rare disease\nRare diseases communally exert a global public health burden in the severity of their manifestations and the total number of people they afflict. Many rare disease patients experience serious market access issues that hinder the diagnosis and treatment of their disease conditions. Driven by these challenges, the rare disease patient community has played a vital role in elevating the patient voice and organizing legislation to support the development of programs that address the needs of patients with rare diseases.\nThe US Orphan Drug Act of 1983 served as a breakthrough, providing a roadmap for other countries to introduce and implement orphan drug legislation. More recently, the European Union (EU) has gone further to encourage the widespread adoption and execution of rare disease plans or strategies designed to more adequately address the comprehensive needs of patients with rare diseases. Despite these legislative efforts and the growing contributions of patient advocacy groups, gaps still exist across the policy landscape for several countries.\nSafiyya Dharssi and her colleagues once reviewed the rare disease policy landscape across eleven countries (some emerging markets, some developed) \u2013 Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Canada, Bulgaria, Turkey, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, China, and Taiwan. Their study explored the rare disease legislation, associated policies, regulation, programs, status, and implementation of policy for each country in the context of key patient needs across five dimensions: improving the coordination of care, diagnostic resources, access to treatments, patient awareness and support, and promoting innovative research.\nTheir findings emphasize the continuing role of the patient community in driving the establishment and adoption of legislation and programs to improve rare disease care. Additionally, they found that while national rare disease plans provide important guidance for improving care, implementation of plans is uneven across countries. As a final point, they accentuated the need for more research to demonstrate the effect of specific elements of rare disease plans on patient outcomes.\nTable 2: Orphan drug legislation timeline\nInitiatives taken to overcome the barriers to treating rare diseases:\nShire in association with Hereditary Angioedema International (HAEi) and the HAE Association (HAEA), developed the HAE patient identification and diagnosis program which helps to recognize the gaps in physician, patient and family member knowledge, and also to develop a core set of materials to educate them.\nCollective materials, which consist of information regarding the HAE disease and its diagnostic tests, were designed for all three key participants. But, taking the comfort of the patients into consideration, materials related to the patient were developed by patients to assure a better approach. Forty one member groups worldwide were identified and trained by the HAEi and HAEA to utilize the materials designed. Webinars and regional workshops were organized to enable awareness in the countries where there were no patient organizations identified, .\nHAEi, HAEA, and Shire have broadened the awareness of HAE and improved diagnostic training for healthcare professionals internationally by strategically working together. There was a very encouraging response from the HAE community with an increase in both the number of patients and members of country organizations. In the United States alone, 340 patients participated in the campaign, and over 700 new members joined the campaign.\nHaemophilia is a lifelong, chronic condition if left untreated or undertreated, and causes bleeding, including into joints which causes progressive joint damage. The Swedish Orphan Biovitrum (SOBI) came to realize that the design of packaging and dosing syringes was not always meeting the needs of people with haemophilia, sometimes being bulky and difficult to manage. Before filing the marketing authorization application in Europe, SOBI started exploring if more user-friendly packaging and administration could make life easier for haemophiliacs. They were asked to record video diaries of their treatment experiences, and interviews were conducted with them to better understand the topics they had raised.\nThe inputs were used to prepare potential new designs for the packaging and syringes. These were shared with the haemophilia community to explore if these designs would better meet their needs. SOBI thus learned that size was the most important element, and the resulting package was more compact, and easier to travel with and store.\nHaemophiliacs might have impaired grip function due to joint damage. So, an innovative syringe plunger rod with horizontal ribs and an extra center grip with a soft top was designed. This increases friction and gives equal grip, even if it is not pushed exactly squarely.\nWhat we have learned from trying to overcome rare disease barriers\nAll parties were able to bring individual strengths and knowledge to the project for the benefit of patients by working together. The result was not just more information but also a framework for global and regional organizations to ensure that member groups are able to execute effectively. This cooperation between industry and advocates provides an approach that can be replicated across other disease areas. This will create opportunities for continued validation and refinement of future approaches.\nRare diseases are a public health priority. Hence, awareness should be raised among policymakers, healthcare professionals, and the general public. Patients and their wider communities should be empowered, enabling better disease management, and for patients to further influence the decisions that affect them. Continued research and development should be promoted, building political commitment to drive research, innovation and policies for rare diseases, and increasing collaborative research efforts to enhance scientific understanding of all rare diseases. Sustainable access to diagnosis, treatment, and care should be ensured, improving the workforce and infrastructure to treat rare diseases, and developing and strengthening legislation that enhances access to orphan drugs.\nphamax is a healthcare consulting firm that focuses on simplifying pharmaceutical market access complexities.

This remains true even though our society\u2019s view on the use of substances, such as marijuana, is changing. While popular culture currently paints drug possession as as something which is becoming more tolerated, residents of our state will be facing criminal charges. Such matters need to be taken seriously by the accused. Bretton Barber is a Phoenix criminal defense attorney standing up for the rights of those charged with drug possession. Contact our office today to speak with a lawyer.\nPhoenix-area lawyer defending against marijuana, narcotic, and dangerous drug possession charges\nArizona classifies controlled substances into multiple classifications.\nDangerous drugs- includes methamphetamines, LSD, steroids, ecstasy, mescaline, clonazepam, alprazolam, and others\nNarcotic drugs such as cocaine, heroin, oxycodone, hydrocodone, morphine, and opium.\nPeyote and drugs which emit a toxic vapor also have their own categories. Arrests and convictions for those types of drugs are rare. The penalties for possessing a drug in any of the above-mentioned categories will largely depend on the type of drug at issue as well as the amount. Under Prop 200, most first and second time drug offenders will generally not be sentenced to jail time if they were arrested for personal possession. Exceptions to this rule exist for those previously convicted of a violent offense, for those possessing certain dangerous drugs, or if other aggravated circumstances are present.\nThere are a number of ways for Arizona residents to deal with drug possession charges. If a person wishes to avoid a criminal conviction then the TASC program may be an option. TASC helps adult defendants defer prosecution if strict requirements are met. If search and seizure issues were present during the arrest, and a defendant\u2019s Fourth Amendment rights were violated, then one may wish to skip TASC and fight the charges outright. The same is true for those who possess a valid prescription or medical marijuana card.\nAttorney Bretton Barber will aggressively defend your rights and help you reach the best decision for your future. He will immediately acquire the arrest reports, as well as other evidence, and determine whether your constitutional rights were infringed upon by law enforcement. If violations are present then he will file the necessary motions to exclude any evidence from court proceedings. He will also explore other issues related to your defense and help you pursue the best strategy for your particular situation \u2013 whether it be entering the TASC program or going to trial. We will be in regular contact with you throughout the process and Bretton regularly provides clients with his personal cell phone number. He often communicates with people outside of normal business hours and ensures that you know what to expect from the process. Call our lawyer today. In addition to Phoenix we represent defendants in other Maricopa County cities such as Mesa, Glendale, Scottsdale, Chandler, and Gilbert. We also assist Pima County residents in Tucson.\nPhoenix attorney helping people move on from drug possession convictions through expungements and conviction set asides\nMany people have been convicted of drug possession and are struggling to move on with their life. This is because they have a permanent record which they must disclose on job applications and other background checks. Many people don\u2019t realize that a drug conviction will automatically result in disqualification for student loans, public benefits, and other consequences. Our attorney helps Phoenix area residents move on from such situations by handling either a record expungement or a conviction set aside. Bretton believes that if one has completed their requirements then they should not be restrained from building a positive future. Contact our office today.",

        "raw_content": "Medical Boards May Contribute to Mental Health Stigma for Doctors\nMONDAY, July 30, 2018 (HealthDay News) \u2014 Existing policy has been amended to encourage licensing boards to require disclosure of physical or mental health conditions only when these would negatively impact a physicians\u2019 ability to practice medicine, according to an article published in the American Medical Association\u2019s AMA Wire.\nAccording to the AMA, many state medical boards persist in questioning licensure applicants about their history of treatment for mental health instead of focusing on their current fitness to practice, despite recommendations to the contrary from the AMA, American Psychiatric Association, and other organizations.\nAt the 2018 AMA Annual Meeting in Chicago, the House of Delegates amended existing policy to encourage state licensing boards to require disclosure of physical or mental health conditions only when the condition currently impairs the physician\u2019s judgment; adversely affects their ability to practice medicine in a competent, ethical, and professional manner; or when the physician presents a public health danger. In addition, the AMA has been directed to advocate wording to this effect in cases where state medical boards wish to retain questions about the health of applicants on medical licensing applications.\n\u201cToo many of our physician colleagues are dealing with burnout, depression, and even suicidal thoughts,\u201d David O. Barbe, M.D., immediate past president of the AMA, said in a statement. \u201cWe must do everything we can to improve physician wellness and eliminate any barriers that stand in the way of physicians accessing needed mental health care services.\u201d\nJoint Mobilization Plus Exercise Beneficial for Knee Osteoarthritis\nAdvanced Prostate Cancer Variant More Common Than Thought",

This device, not yet FDA-approved, consists of a tube implanted in the stomach, which leads to a port that is exposed on the surface of the abdomen.\nNow, I\u2019m not making this up.\nYou can eat whatever you want. Then 20 minutes after your meal, you attach a pump to the port and siphon and lavage the contents of your stomach into a bucket or basin, I guess. The manufacturer says that this will remove about a third of what is eaten leading to weight loss if done after every meal.\nIt doesn\u2019t tell you how to gracefully dispose of the contents of the stomach, especially if you are dining at say, McDonald\u2019s.\nThe only research on this product is in the form of a poster that was shown at a meeting of the Obesity Society in October of 2011. It was a randomized prospective trial of 11 patients who received the device plus \u201clifestyle intervention\u201d compared with seven patients who had only \u201clifestyle intervention.\u201d It was funded by the maker of the device.\nTen subjects completed a year with the device vs only four who stuck with the lifestyle intervention. Baseline characteristics were similar for the two groups. Percent weight loss and absolute weight loss were significantly greater in the device group. The average 1-year weight loss was 20 kg.\nHowever, 10/11 patients had pain more than 4 weeks after surgery, and irritation and bleeding at the stoma occurred in about half the patients. Two had infections at the site. Constipation occurred in six patients and anemia in four.\nIf you can stomach it, there is a video at the company\u2019s website. Thankfully, it\u2019s an animation.\nMedgadget describes the concept as \u201chigh-tech bulimia.\u201d\nIf that doesn\u2019t appeal to you, how about something more simple? Introducing the \u201csmart fork.\u201d A flashing light and vibration tells you when you are eating too fast. It monitors how long it takes you to eat your meal. It has Bluetooth and USB connectivity so you can upload data to your phone or computer. Here\u2019s an excessively overproduced video explaining it.\nBut wait, there\u2019s more: It\u2019s dishwasher safe, as a view from inside the dishwasher shows. As far as I know, Ron Popeil has nothing to do with this product. At least it looks a lot less messy than washing out your stomach through your abdominal wall.\nI don\u2019t think surgeons doing gastric bypasses have anything to worry about just yet.\nPreviousThe DNA of Thin Parents\u2026\nNextFinding a Teachable Moment in Nursing\nDetecting and Managing Preeclampsia\nACC.13: Bariatric Surgery Improves Lung Function in HF Patients\nImproving Quality of Life for Migraineurs\nKaren Cheatum on April 12, 2013 at 10:16 am\nMy first thought: hey, at least they won\u2019t have rotting teeth from induced vomiting\u2026then you covered that!

        "raw_content": "People 65 and older are dying as a result of falls at an increasing rate across the country. Nationally, the rate of death after a fall increased more than 35 percent between 2005 and 2014. Falls are now the leading cause of death in people 65 and older.\nIn Wisconsin, the issue is so severe, public health experts are considering it an epidemic. The elderly death rate from falls in that state is the second highest in the nation and more than double the national average.\nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the average elderly death rate from falls is about 48 per 100,000. Wisconsin\u2019s rate, however, is approximately 105 in 100,000, which is second only to Vermont.\nAlthough it is not clear exactly why Wisconsin\u2019s rate is so much higher than the rest of the country, a number of groups are working to find answers and solutions.\nSpecialists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have partnered with others in Oregon, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Epic Systems, a provider of healthcare records software, to develop a program to predict, and ultimately reduce, elderly patients\u2019 risks for falls.\nThe group created a screening program called Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths & Injuries (STEADI), which encourages conversations between doctors and patients about falls. By analyzing a patient\u2019s risk factors, it identifies a patient\u2019s likelihood of falling.\nThe leading risk factors that lead to falls include:\nMedications with warnings against driving or operating machinery\nTaking four or more medications\nPoor vision, including from incorrect glasses prescriptions or cataracts\nLeg weakness, especially in the ankles or feet\nBalance trouble\nLoose objects throughout a home that present tripping dangers\nJane Mahoney, the creator of the Stepping On program says that small changes can make a big difference in preventing falls. The program teaches participants balancing and strength exercises, along with other strategies to help prevent falls.\nShe says that making it easy for physicians to screen for fall risks is imperative to slowing down the epidemic. According to the CDC, evaluating and modifying elderly patients\u2019 medication can reduce fall risks by 40 percent.\nIf your elderly loved one has died from a fall that you believe was a result of another\u2019s negligence, our wrongful death lawyers can help you fight for compensation.

        "raw_content": "Your article: Bomber engine demonstration a roaring success\nPatrick Smart (left) and Pete Irving with the restored Hercules engine on West Green in Pocklington.\nPhil Gilbank\nPocklington once more reverberated to the roar of a World War Two Halifax bomber engine when Saturday\u2019s (9 May) Flying Man Festival programme came to a close at the end of the afternoon with a Hercules engine demonstration run.\nPatrick Smart, who is originally from South Cave but now owns North Yorkshire Land Rover dealers, Maddison 4x4, brought his 14 cylinder Bristol Hercules 216 engine to Pocklington for the weekend. It was on static display outside All Saints\u2019 Church throughout the day, then moved on to West Green to get up and running for a half hour. A further demonstration followed on Sunday at the Gliding Club.\nPatrick is a lifelong engine enthusiast, following in the footsteps of his father, Alan, who was a East Yorkshire World War Two hero who flew Halifax bombers from Lissett, Driffield and Pocklington airfields, he was awarded the DFC in 1943. Patrick knew there was a Hercules engine on loan to Elvington Air Museum, but it was on outdoor display and no longer in working order. He promptly bought it last June and set about rebuilding it with the help of his next door neighbour, Pete Irving, who just happened to be an ex-RAF jet pilot who is now a Virgin Atlantic Airline captain.\nPatrick explained: \u201cWe are a pair of petrolheads, really. The reason I took the restoration on is my dad was a former pilot officer in the war flying with 158 and 640 squadrons. He always praised the Bristol Hercules engines, as he said \u2018they always got us home\u2019\u201d.\nHe went on: \u201cWhen we got the engine it was nipped up and not working, but a few months later we have the old girl running great.\u201d\nPatrick\u2019s is one of only five known working Bristol Hercules in the world, but he has another two bomber engines at home that he hopes to restore, while a friend also has a working engine, and he added: \u201cThe aim is to get all four engines running together, what a sound that will be, we\u2019ll almost have a full bomber.\u201d\nPatrick made the offer to bring his engine to Pocklington after he became involved in cleaning up the Merlin aircraft engine that was dug up during the building of the new surgery, and has now been turned into a memorial for the dead aircrew. And the Hercules provided a noisy and fascinating end to the day for the crowd that gathered on West Green on Saturday for the demonstration.\nTheatre review by Julia Pattison - The Comedy About a Bank Robbery at Grand Opera House York",

        "raw_content": "The SUNY Charter Schools Institute anticipates making their recommendations to the SUNY Board of Trustees in early October for a vote. The state education department will also make recommendations. | AP Photo\nConflict brewing over NYC charters as capacity dwindles\nBy MADINA TOUR\u00c9 and ANNA GRONEWOLD\nNew York City is running out of space for new charter schools and the dwindling capacity is setting up a potential fight between charters, unions and legislators in Albany.\nAt least 33 proposals for new charters statewide have made it through final screenings and are awaiting approval, with 29 of those proposed for New York City, where only 28 charters are left under the cap, POLITICO has learned. That means, for the first time applications for new charters are exceeding the number allowed under state law.\nThe ultimate approval processes from the state Education Department and State University of New York Charter Schools Institute will almost certainly narrow those numbers. But both charter and public school advocates agree the final result of available charters will likely land in single digits, all but guaranteeing conflict over the cap in both New York City and Albany in the coming year, even as the city\u2019s charter school applicants reach an all-time high.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a question of exacerbating the problem,\u201d James Merriman, CEO of the New York City Charter School Center, told POLITICO in an interview. \u201cIt\u2019s a question that if you do not raise the cap \u2026 if you don\u2019t eliminate or raise the cap then what is going to happen is we\u2019re going to have people\u2026 who want to start charter schools, who have the capacity to provide a better education and a better school than right now some students in New York will receive who are not gonna submit an application but even if they did, would not be able to start a school.\u201d\nThere are currently 28 charters available to be issued in New York City. Under legislation passed during the 2015 state legislative session, the charter school subcap for the city was increased to a maximum of 50 new charters. Out of those 50 new charters, only six remain.\nThe SUNY Charter Schools Institute anticipates making their recommendations to the SUNY Board of Trustees in early October for a vote. The state education department will also make recommendations before the end of the year.\nIn 2015, the charter cap was changed to bring back a subset of charters that had been previously issued and were subsequently surrendered, revoked or terminated before July 1, 2015. Those 22 charters can be issued anywhere in the state, including New York City.\nThe New York Charter Schools Act of 1998 and its amendments in 2007, 2010 and 2015 created caps on the number of charters that can be issued. Charter entities are defined as certain school districts, SUNY Board of Trustees and the Board of Regents.\nThe number of applicants to charter schools reached an all-time high for the 2018-2019 school year, according to a June report by the Charter Center on enrollment lottery estimates. With 84 percent of charters responding to its survey, the Charter Center estimates that city charter schools had 284,077 applications for kindergarten through 12th grade, according to the report.\nAnd the center noted that when it adjusted for students who apply to more than one charter school, that represents an estimated 79,600 applicants for nearly 26,900 available seats \u2014 a 9 percent increase in demand over the 2017-18 applicant pool, which saw 73,000 unique applicants. During the 2010-11 school year, there were 54,000 applicants.\nThe number of students without access to a seat \u2014 at the time that charter schools run their lotteries \u2014 has surpassed 52,700 children, compared to 47,800 in the 2017-18 school year.\nVicki Zubovic, chief of external affairs for KIPP NYC \u2014 part of the United States\u2019 largest charter network \u2014 said that during the last lottery season, KIPP NYC received 17,427 applications for 775 seats.\n\u201cI just think it\u2019s definitely an urgent issue because being close to this cap means that there\u2019s a real possibility that we\u2019ll reach it and we won\u2019t be able to make demand \u2014 parent demand,\u201d Zubovic said. \u201cSo that\u2019s definitely an issue.\u201d\nWhat KIPP has seen, she said, is parents continually applying \u201cmultiple years, multiple times, multiple schools\u201d and that they are not able to meet the need.\n\u201cPeople will often ask me, \u2018Why can\u2019t we have a school in my neighborhood?\u2019\u201d Zubovic said. \u201cAnd it just means that we\u2019re restricting the supply of seats and it just seems unfair.\u201d\nJenny Sedlis, executive director of pro-charter group StudentsFirstNY and co-founder of Success Academy Charter Schools, said it\u2019s clear the number of charters available for the city needs to be increased.\n\u201cExpanding access to quality schools should be a no-brainer,\u201d she said.\nBut in Albany the charter movement lacks downstate\u2019s fervor. Legislatively, changes to the cap face strong opposition from both the state and city teachers\u2019 unions, who say charters should submit to more rigorous accountability measures since they receive taxpayer money.\n\"The charter cap should not be lifted unless and until charters serve all students equally and there is full transparency and accountability for how charters operate and public dollars are spent,\u201d said Andy Pallotta, president of the state\u2019s 600,000-member New York State United Teachers.\nThe Democratic state Assembly has continued to resist charter expansion. This legislative session, when Senate Republicans tried to attach, among other things, a 100-school charter increase to popular legislation decoupling state exams and teacher evaluations, the entire proposal was shot down by Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, who called the add-ons \u201carsenic.\u201d\nAnd if raising the charter cap was difficult this year Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan (R-East Northport) \u2014 a supporter of charter expansion \u2014 it could be even more so in the Legislature\u2019s next session, where Democrats are a threat to take the majority in November.\nEven with the potential of a Democratic Senate, charter advocates had tenuous champions in former Independent Democratic Conference members, who stopped caucusing with Republicans earlier this year, but whose campaigns continued to rake in in thousands of dollars from charter school supporters.\nThis month, six of the eight former members were ousted in the primary, with their places taken by progressive challengers, including public education powerhouses like state Sen. Marisol Alcantara\u2019s opponent Robert Jackson, who successfully sued the state for more public school money in the historic Campaign for Fiscal Equity lawsuit more than two decades ago and campaigned on a platform that would support \u201conly charter schools which are open to all students.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s more, the state Board of Regents has lately shown itself hesitant on charters. Sources say the state is likely to approve only about half of its applications this round, especially as Regents grow wary of the department\u2019s inability to accurately track how charters are impacting public school districts. The state education department declined to comment.\nAt this month\u2019s meeting, the Regents nearly failed to approve updates to a charter oversight framework document amid heated concerns from some members that charter schools intentionally weed out needy children to maintain high achievement scores.\nState education department officials say the department does not have the data and resources to independently verify information about when and why students leave charters, and must rely on information from districts. Board members also said they are concerned about certain regions in the city that are facing \u201coversaturation\u201d and what they can do to support public schools.\n\u201cWhen is the point when charters begin to have an adverse impact on districts?\u201d Regent Lester Young asked.\nThe oversight discussion could intensify as the city reaches charter capacity, if officials who are cautious about charters in the first place focus on the elimination of ineffective schools to make room for new ones under the existing cap.\nRegent Roger Tilles told POLITICO that the problem, in his opinion, is \u201cthat we don\u2019t do a good enough of job weeding out charters that are not doing their job,\u201d Tilles said. \u201cThe Regents are better at it than the city. The city as far as I know doesn\u2019t do any of it.\u201d\nCharters can serve a \u201creal purpose,\u201d Tilles said, for students who thrive under strict standards and disciplinary programs. However, he added, \u201cI think there are plenty of them now that are not using best practices and we\u2019re not learning anything from them.\u201d\nThe city\u2019s Department of Education said that since the 2011-12 school year, the Board of Regents has closed only one charter school while the DOE has closed seven.\nThe city education department reiterated that only the state and SUNY are allowed to authorize new charter schools per state law. The DOE also said that charter schools considered for approvals are not all authorized, that not all authorized schools open in the year subsequent to authorization and that they are not all New York City schools.\nIn 2018, 95 percent of parents reported satisfaction with their child\u2019s education \u2014 the same as in 2017, according to the DOE\u2019s annual school survey.\n\u201cThere are high-quality district and charter school options throughout the city, and we\u2019re investing in every community through our Equity and Excellence for All agenda,\u201d Doug Cohen, a DOE spokesman, said in a statement.\nThe SUNY Trustee\u2019s Charter Committee is set to approve about 14 charters currently, 13 of which are in New York City. Between SUNY and SED that could leave between five and 10 available for next year, observers estimate.\nIf the Trustees receive more applications next year than there are spaces left, they could, hypothetically, choose randomly which applications they will accept, according to officials. They also could operate based on first schools in line under SUNY Charter School Institute\u2019s extensive evaluation process, which ranks applications based on certain priorities that change year-to-year.\n\u201cAlthough the available amount of charters to be issued in New York City is dwindling, we continue to focus on the monitoring, evaluation, and continuous improvement of the schools in our portfolio,\u201d said Susie Miller Carello, executive director of the SUNY Charter Schools Institute.\nThere are 111 charters left outside of the city, but they are only six of the proposals being considered. The rest of the state lacks financial incentives the city has, such as facility funding or districts willing to supply space and large amounts of assistance for special education students, Merriman said. Outside of the city, there are also fewer entrepreneurial educators, such as Success Academy CEO Eva Moskowitz, and a smaller supply of invested teachers and leaders needed \u201cto actually implement effective schools.\u201d\nMerriman said he is optimistic about the prospects of getting the charter cap lifted.\n\u201cI am absolutely convinced that we will see a raise [in] the charter cap,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m absolutely convinced that ultimately, no matter the politics, the Legislature will not stand in the way of kids getting a better education and if they do, I think there\u2019ll be hell to pay.\u201d\nSedlis warned that elected officials who do not support charters could face consequences during elections.\n\u201cPoliticians see these uniforms flood their neighborhoods and they get terrified about their political future,\u201d she said. \u201cCharter parents are passionate. They vote and they will vote their interests.\u201d",

Having said that, director Neill Blomkamp has brought us some pretty entertaining films and Chappie is no exception.\nCHAPPiE \u2013 an experimental robot built and designed to learn and feel. Like any child, Chappie will come under the influence of his surroundings \u2013 some good, some bad \u2013 and he will rely on his heart and soul to find his way in the world and become his own man.\nBut there\u2019s one thing that makes Chappie different from anyone else: he is a robot. The first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself. That\u2019s a dangerous idea \u2013 and it\u2019s a challenge that will pit Chappie against powerful, destructive forces that would ensure that he is the last of his kind.\nImagine that, to have an artificial intelligence that smarter than intelligence. I think it\u2019s got the worries of Terminator 2 written all over it but what\u2019s done here is a much more scaled down version. Actually it\u2019s more believable in that this artificial intelligence is at a very infant stage.\nIt\u2019s actually quite interesting to see this robot exhibit the fears of an infant child, the curiosity and thirst for imagination. What would an artificial intelligence do if it had these sort of \u201cfeelings\u201d. Well my guess is it would probably not have limits or create the mental boundaries we tend to set ourselves.\nDev Petal is certainly a standout in this one. Heck he reminds me of a workaholic friend I have. But the man who stood out (as he always does) is Hugh Jackman. He\u2019s playing the villain in this movie. I mean when was the last time he was the bad guy? Oh and he keeps his Aussie accent too. I really liked his character because at last Hugh Jackman doesn\u2019t get to play Mr Perfect\u2026\u2026and he does a good job! Damn I guess that means he really is Mr Perfect.\nDon\u2019t question the film too much especially if you\u2019re a techie or a psychologist type. Really it\u2019s all just based on a concept and at the end of the day, whichever way Chappie decides to follow, it\u2019s all down to the example from us humans.

        "title": "Measuring and counting fat cells - Portsmouth Daily Times",
        "raw_content": "Measuring and counting fat cells\nJohn DiTraglia MD\nIs obesity caused by too many fat cells, each one of which is \u201cnormal\u201d sized, or fat cells that are each one too fat? Yes, both. But the critical issue in trying to answer this question is measuring the size of fat cells. Then once you have the sizes and number of fat cells in a sample of fat tissue you can multiply that times the other measures of volume and weight of fat stores in the body to get the total number. Obviously this involves cutting out a piece of fat tissue.\nThere are chiefly 3 ways of measuring fat cells in a lump of fat and each way gets a different answer. In the first method the tissue sample is fixed in formaldehyde and embedded in paraffin and then sliced and stained to make slides and then the cells are viewed and measured and counted by looking at them under the microscope. This can be automated to some extent by computer scanning but it still requires a lot of slow human tedious looking. The second method involves digesting the sample with an enzyme, collagenase, that loosens each cell into a suspension. Those cells, which are still alive, can then also be counted under the microscope but this method has the draw back that the smaller cells don\u2019t float apart as well and big cells are fragile and easily damaged. In the final method a sample of collagenase digested fat tissue is fixed and stained with osmium tetroxide and then that can be fed into a cell counter machine like the ones commonly used to count cells in blood samples. This method allows you to easily count more cells and so might be more representative of the actual situation but the osmium tetroxide has been shown to swell the cells by about 25%.\nThis month\u2019s issue of the journal Obesity has the report of a study that simultaneously used all three of these methods on samples from 60 women who were of various sizes and shapes, but mostly on the heavy side like women are these days, aged 35 to 60 years old, who were getting a hysterectomy at Laval University Medical Center in Quebec, Canada, but were otherwise healthy and hadn\u2019t lost or gained weight in the last year. (1) A chunk of fat tissue was taken from two spots, under the skin of the abdomen and inside around the intestines. That is subcutaneous and omental samples respectively, the two parts of the visceral fat stores generally recognized to be problem fat. They also measured distribution of body fat, cholesterol and triglycerides and insulin sensitivity in the women to see which of these standard metabolic risk factors was best correlated to the fat cell size distributions.\nAll three techniques did show that fat cell size average was correlated with the overall size and shape of fat in these women. Also increased average fat cell size correlated with worsening metabolic risk factors. But the tightest correlations was with the osmium fixation technique. That\u2019s good because that\u2019s the easiest, most automated method and can be done in batches. But it\u2019s a problem because since this method significantly enlarges the cells, the overall number will be reduced and number estimates are also an important predictor of metabolic issues. (2)\nOther interesting things were that subcutaneous fat cells were fatter than omental fat cells and the first method of fixing and staining fat counted a simple even normal distribution from small to big cells but the other two methods showed two populations in the size distribution, two peaks, a smaller one for small cells and and a bigly peak for big cells. The biologic relevance of more or less of the small cells was not teased apart in this study \u2013 they were just averaged together. It might be that small cells are baby fat cells that will later grow up to be part of the problem, so more of them is also bad. Higher average fat cell size was also accompanied with higher leptin and adiponectin levels. These two hormones, made by fat cells, are good for you because leptin signals the brain to stop eating and adiponectin has beneficial effects on fat and sugar metabolism.\nSo there you have way more information about measuring and counting fat cells than you can possibly cope with.\nHi!

        "title": "Everything About Dancing That Nobody Ever Talks About",
        "raw_content": "Everything About Dancing That Nobody Ever Talks About\nby Dave Goldman\n(This article was originally published on paper, an antiquated medium of communication and information exchange left over from the 20th Century.)\nAsk most callers about \"partner interactions\" and they'll start talking about allemandes and swings, eye contact and giving weight. However, a lot of partner interactions in the dance hall have little to do with dancing, and beginning dancers seldom hear these issues discussed during dance workshops. For that matter, some of these topics are almost never discussed by any of us. But ignoring a problem doesn't make it go away.\nWhen you fill a room with a hundred people of both genders, a wide range of behaviors will result. Some of these behaviors will surprise a newcomer, but seem perfectly appropriate to experienced contradancers. Others exceed the bounds of appropriateness, but go unchallenged because the victim is unsure of what's considered normal in this community, or doesn't know how to react. In rare cases, the perpetrator may not even be aware of his or her error.\nThis article borrows from some recent discussions on the Usenet newsgroup <rec.folk-dancing>, as well as from scattered conversations over the past several years at dances, parties, and camps. Our goal is to stimulate more open discussion of these issues within our community. > We welcome your responses, either via e-mail or on <rec.folk-dancing>.\n[Note: for syntactical and statistical reasons, we usually refer below to perpetrators of inappropriate behavior as \"he\", and their victims as \"she.\" Please feel free to share anecdotes of events where the genders sorted out otherwise.]\nSomething that you do hear mentioned at dance workshops is eye contact. Contradancers definitely like to stare into each other's eyes, a practice that can be unnerving for newcomers.\nSome people maintain major eye contact because they've found it keeps them from getting dizzy during swings and quick allemandes. But most of us also enjoy looking into our partner's eyes as one part of the friendliness of contradancing.\nThe next step up from being friendly is flirting. This behavior, too, is an established contradance tradition. But flirting is a two-lane highway - it's not appropriate for you to be racing along at sixty if your partner has chosen to remain idling at the curb. And making your partner uncomfortable by outright leering is definitely not within acceptable bounds.\nOne ocular behavior that we shouldn't need to mention as inappropriate - but which, apparently, we must - is staring down a woman's dress. Please remember that the tradition here is eye-to-eye contact.\nWhich leads directly to a topic of recent fervor in the Internet's rec.folk-dancing discussion group, the contact of women's breasts by their partners.\nSurprisingly, there is a spectrum of behaviors even here. Not infrequently during a swing or waltz, an inexperienced female dancer will turn away from her partner in such a way that his right arm is forced across her chest. Or her left arm will press down on his right, squeezing it against the side of her breast.\nOn the other hand, there are some experienced male dancers who frequently manage to force their partner into one of these positions. Women should not dismiss these men as merely clumsy.\nThen there are the totally-accidental contacts when one partner or the other is coming out of a wild allemande or spin. These can happen very occasionally to anyone, and are probably best handled by an appropriately sheepish expression.\nBut there are a few men who seem to have a lot of these accidents. This exceeds the bounds of probability, sheepish looks or no.\nSomething that didn't come up on rec.folk-dancing was derriere groping. (Well, actually one club square-dancer did describe a local trend of butt-patting in a certain dance figure.) But looking at our tradition, the position of the woman's right hand on a courtesy turn does seem defensive. Which is not to say that there aren't many times when it's appropriate for a man's hand to land on his partner's waist. Lower than that, though, is by mutual consent only.\nIf you find yourself the recipient of unwanted ophthalmic or tactile attention, you have available a range of appropriate reactions. The most common is to ignore what just happened. Unfortunately, this does nothing to prevent a recurrence of the behavior, to yourself or to others.\nAt the very least, note and remember who has just done something inappropriate. Then you can defend yourself in the future, whether by refusing to dance with that person or by being on guard next time you see him coming down the contra line.\nIt is certainly appropriate to point out to someone that they've done something you found uncomfortable. You may have the chance to speak to a partner right away, even as the dance continues. Or you can take him aside at the end of the dance, or seek him out later in the evening. If this is one of those situations where the perpetrator actually was unaware of his actions, then your words may end up benefiting the entire community. And even if he was fully aware of what he was doing, being told that his behavior has been noted may discourage its repetition.\nOne reaction that one woman suggested in the Usenet discussion, but that we have never witnessed in practice, is to emit a loud, outraged exclamation or shriek immediately upon an unwanted touch. This does indeed seem like a potentially effective maneuver.\nDon't forget that we are a dance community. If you identify a person who routinely behaves inappropriately, share this information with other dancers! This will help others defend themselves.\nFinally, you can speak to the dance organizers - in the case of a PCDC event, that means any of the Board members. This does put the organizers in a somewhat awkward position, and one for which there has been little precedent. Still, a dance organizer should feel sufficiently empowered to walk up to a dancer and quietly inform him that there have been reports of certain specific behaviors that have made other dancers uncomfortable. There is no need for the \"accused\" to \"face his accuser,\" or for any sort of adversarial confrontation. The goal is not to determine guilt or innocence, but simply to allow us to all dance together happily in one room.\nSuppose that there is someone with whom you do not wish to dance (perhaps for reasons covered above). What can you do if that person walks up to you and asks for the next dance?\nA common belief is that either you must accept, or else you must reply that you are going to sit this one out - and then actually do so.\nThe common belief is wrong.\nNow, there certainly are some good arguments for never turning anyone down. New dancers need to learn to walk up to strangers without fear. Feelings of rejection do not promote the sense of community that contradances are otherwise so good at creating.\nStill, let's face it. There may be a couple of individuals with whom you're just not comfortable dancing. And they should not have the power to force you to sit out a dance. You have several options.\nFirst, you can avoid getting into this situation at all. Instead of waiting for someone to come ask you to dance, you can look for someone with whom you would like to dance, and approach them.\nNext, as any experienced dancer or metropolis-dweller knows, nobody can ask you anything if you refuse to make eye contact. There are a few unusually tenacious exceptions to this rule, but even with these you can generally look past your unwanted suitor's shoulder and walk right by.\nAnother non-confrontational defense is to book ahead. If during one dance you agree with someone to share the next, then you're immune to unwanted invitations. However there are definite drawbacks to widespread booking ahead - that's a whole separate discussion, but please do consider other options where possible.\n[See Dave Cottle's article Improving Problem Dancers for some constructive approaches to solving the problem--KW]\nSo much for the easy alternatives. Now suppose that despite your best intentions you are surprised by an undesirable invitation to dance. Here is a perfectly acceptable response:\nReally. You can simply decline. No explanation is required, and you are welcome to seek out another partner. Depending on circumstances, you might decide that it would be more beneficial in the long run if you were a bit less terse:\n\"No thanks. You always bend my wrist until it hurts.\"\nOr \"No thanks. I'm not comfortable with the way you always stare at me.\"\nThough maybe it's simply a matter of timing. \"No thanks. I suddenly see a chance to dance with someone I've been lusting over all evening. But I'll look for you later.\"\nYou alone can decide on the appropriate level of tactfulness. But I suggest that you stick to an honest statement, however you choose to phrase it. (Of course, the community as a whole would probably be better off if you refrain from overly honest statements. Such as \"You scum! I would rather dance with a St. Bernard who's been rolling in dead fish! I spit on you!\")\nSuppose that you have just asked someone to dance, and been turned down without explanation. What can you conclude?\nEveryone hates you. (Almost certainly wrong.)\nThat person hates you. (Usually wrong.)\nThat person was bothered by something you said or did. (Possibly correct.)\nThat person already has other plans or hopes for this dance. (Often the case.)\nYour immediate reaction should be to accept the rejection with a minimum of lamentation, and then quickly go look for another partner before everyone's been taken. Save discussions and deep analyses for another time. (Note, however, that a brief but sincere display of extreme desolation may in some cases improve your future odds.)\nIf you find yourself repeatedly rejected by one or more people, though, it's probably time for some reflection. Is this that woman who has been wearing a cast on her arm for the past three months, ever since you showed her that new way of twirling? Is this the guy who made such a funny noise after you kicked a little too high on that balance last week? Whatever the reason, if you did do something wrong to one partner, you're probably still doing it to others. On behalf of contradancers everywhere: please stop.\nThere was once a time when you wouldn't just walk up to a stranger and ask for a dance. Proper introduction by a mutual acquaintance ensured some degree of social safety. Now though, you're usually on your own.\nMany of us enjoy an evening of dance with old and new friends, and then leave them all behind until the next dance event. Others find a contradance to be a relatively safe place to meet interesting people, and look forward to romantic results that will extend beyond the dance hall. A contradance certainly does have advantages over a singles bar - for one thing, it's much easier to come up with an opening line - and many wonderful relationships have started at dances. [One can also learn a lot about a person from how they treat others, especially random strangers--KW]\nBut like a singles bar, a contradance series can attract a few individuals interested not in commitment, but in conquest. These predators will pounce on a newcomer, exuding friendliness and well-practiced charm. In the mildest cases the newcomer comes to believe that the predator has special feelings for her in particular, but then has her hopes dashed after another few evenings of dance when her novelty has worn off. In more serious cases, though, an out-of-dance-hall relationship ensues. Only after weeks or months does the victim realize that she is merely the latest in a string of conquests - or maybe not the latest.\nOnce burned, many victims do not return to dances.\nMeanwhile, the community's image is also hurt by this chain of events.\nThere are ways to protect yourself from predators. Some are no different from techniques used in singles bars. For example, while there's nothing wrong with someone asking for your phone number, you're never obliged to provide it. If you're uncomfortable with someone's insistence on walking you to your car, feel free to ask another dance acquaintance to come along.\nBut the dance scene also provides ways to learn about people before going out with them. Are they really part of the community, or do they just come to dances looking for fresh meat? If you see someone routinely staying after a dance to put away chairs and tables, or someone who volunteers as a board member, then that's a point in their favor. Of course, there are many unselfish people who don't do these things because of time or other constraints. And there are some predators who will doubtless demonstrate a brief flurry of volunteerism after this article appears.\nThe best way to assess a member of the opposite gender, though, is the one least often used by new members of the community: make friends with as many members of your own gender as you can. Contradancing doesn't automatically promote this - most men know the names of more women dancers than men dancers, and vice versa. But if you go out of your way to strike up conversations with others on your own side of the fence, you can quickly get the lowdown on many of the more notable characters on the other side.\nIf They Dance, They Must Be Trustworthy\nIt's very tempting to assume that anyone who regularly comes to contradances must be an honest person. So when a dancer claims to be a great auto mechanic, or handyman, or computer guru, we tend to believe them. But there are damaged vehicles, leaky dishwashers, and malfunctioning laser printers out there that should guide you otherwise. You really must check a dancer's references as thoroughly as you would anyone else's before letting them mess with your stuff.\nNot convinced? Then consider something that happened right here in Portland, Oregon. One regular dancer offered to check something on another's car. He borrowed her keys one afternoon while he test-drove the vehicle. Months later she discovered that he had used this opportunity to surreptitiously make duplicates of her entire key ring, including the keys to her home and her office.\nForearmed Is Forewarned\nMy intent in this series has not been to scare you off the dance floor. Really, this is one of the safest places in town, with some of the nicest people. But it's time we openly discussed some of the unwritten rules of dance hall etiquette and shared techniques for dealing with breaches. These articles are just a starting point.\nDave Goldman <dave@rsd.com>\nLast updated on July 30, 1996 by entropy@prismnet.com (Kiran Wagle)",

        "raw_content": "Robert Reich speaks at the Dance Palace\nRecently settled Inverness resident Robert Reich, spoke to a packed house at the Dance Palace on Sunday October 21, 2012.\nRobert Reich, who served as the secretary of labor under the Clinton administration and is a professor of public policy at the University of California, Berkeley, has recently moved to Inverness. On Sunday he spoke at the Dance Palace about the importance of sustained economic growth and the buying power of the middle-class in the face of massive budget deficits; he argued that \u201cthe rich would be better off with a smaller share of a rapidly growing economy than a big share of an economy that\u2019s going nowhere,\u201d and said in order to get beyond outrage we must personally become engaged\u2014\u201cmobilizing, activating, talking with people who disagree with us\u2014but also by keeping our eye focused on the big is- sues... we\u2019ve got to take democracy back and take the economy back for average people.\u201d He ended on an optimistic, even a patriotic, note. \u201cThere is an insistence in this country\u2014like no place else on earth\u2014an insistence on getting on with the fundamental job and direction of this country, which is and has always been progressive,\u201d he said. \u201cThe problem is we often don\u2019t recognize the specific problems that have to be tackled. We get distracted by ideology, we get distracted by slogans. We don\u2019t know right now as much as we should know about the ways in which we should deal with some of the tremendous and obvious things that are beginning to require our attention, such as climate change, such as widening inequality, such as money in politics. But I can guarantee you that we will. The question is how and when.\u201d",

The broke up in 1999, but reunited last year with an EP. Now, thy;re about to release their first album in over 20 years.\n\"We got back together a couple of years ago to jam, started recording some stuff, liked the way it was sounding, started playing some shows, and decided to make a full record. We didn't plan it to be 20 years, but here we are,\" guitarist Danny Walker tells Punknews. Walker continues, \"We're proud of the new record. We've got a lot of punk and rock influence, but this album pops on top of all of that.\" Notably, \"Shut You Down\" has a pronounced ska influence, which Walker attributes, in part, to the time Wank spent touring with The Specials. He adds, \"Touring with the Specials was an education - They worked hard on stage, they had great songs, and they we're very cool and professional - Role Models.\" On the band's direction for the new release, Walker says, \"We've got a lot of punk and rock influence, but this album pops on top of all of that. We are super stoked.\"\nWhite Knuckle Ride will be out later this year. Before then, you can check out \"Shut You Down\" right now.",

Secretary General Ban Ki-moon from the cockpit, after 175 countries signed the Paris Agreement on Climate Change at the United Nations headquarters in New York. It happened during one of the hardest legs of the trip, as the pilots reveal the endurance and discipline required to complete the journey.\nDuring the brief conversation, the two complimented one another\u0092s efforts in promoting renewable energy, and the pioneering spirit that is needed to achieve a clean energy future. \u0093You know, Mr Secretary-General, what you are doing today in New York by signing the Paris Agreement is more than protecting the environment \u0096 it is the launch of the clean revolution,\u0094 said Piccard. \u0093If an airplane like Solar Impulse 2 can fly day and night without fuel, the world can be much cleaner.\u0094\nThe U.N. Secretary General also took the opportunity to reassure the Solar Impulse team that those in office are also making strives to achieve a sustainable future, while noting that he looked like an astronaut during his arduous journey.\n\u0093While you are making history flying around the world, we also are making history today,\u0094 said Ki-moon. \u0093More than 175 countries signed the Climate Change Agreement. Thank you for your leadership and inspiration. We wish you a smooth flight. You are leading us into a new era. Bon voyage!\u0094\nThis mammoth leg of the journey took a total of 62 hours and 29 minutes, during which Piccard could only sleep at 20 minute intervals at a time. It was one of the riskiest legs, flying 4,523 km from Hawaii to California at an average speed of 65.39 km/h. The conditions within the plane made it particularly testing, as there is no heat or air conditioning, and few opportunities for mental stimulation.\nThe second of the two pilots, Andre Borschberg, who flew the longest leg of the journey from Japan to Hawaii, spoke of the endurance needed to fly the plane after it landed in California. He noted that \u0093as a human being you can be sufficiently sustainable to be able to fly at least five days in such a plane.\u0094\nUpdate: Solar Impulse completes Pacific crossing\nSungrow expands in the UK market with over 100 MW\u0092s of inverters connected in Q1",

        "raw_content": "The Scottish Women's Hospitals (SWHs) organisation was founded by Dr Elsie Maud Inglis (1864-1917) in 1914 at the occurrence of the First World War.\nWith the outbreak of the war in August 1914, Inglis offered her services to the RAMC at Edinburgh Castle and was famously told, 'My good lady go home and sit still'. She did not. She set about fundraising through her links with the Scottish Federation of Women's Suffrage Societies (SFWSS), and by October 1914, \u00a31,000 had been raised for the first hospital in France - this was one of many which were to be established under the auspices of the SWHs.\nInglis initially approached the Belgian and French Red Cross authorities to offer help to treat the casualties of the escalating war, as the British establishment would not countenance her efforts until nearer the end of the war. Through the SFWSS, she had given lectures about the kind of help and hospitals she wanted to set up and asked for women volunteers to come and work with her, thus the Scottish Women's Hospitals were formed. Given the position of women in society at this time, these SWHs and casualty clearing stations were remarkable units as they were funded, organised, managed and staffed entirely by women. In Royaumont, France some men worked in the hospital \u2013 but only eight in the four years it was open. The vast majority of staff were and remained women, and it can undeniably be classed as a women\u2019s endeavour.\nAll the administrators, nurses, surgeons, bacteriologists, cooks, engineers, drivers, orderlies and VADs were women working at the front line from November 1917 until the end of the war. SWHs were established in France, Serbia, Salonica, Romania, Corsica and Russia. As hospitals, they were well-regarded and many of the doctors, nurses and volunteers were awarded medals for their skills in caring for the wounded by the host countries after the end of the war.\nThis collection of glass lantern slides was created by staff at the Royal College of Nursing Education Department for educational purposes - slide shows and teaching - around 1930. They show candid snapshots of the SWH in Romania, including the camp under fire.\nImage: Yvonne FitzRoy, an orderly or VAD of the Scottish Women\u2019s Hospitals group in the centre in SWH uniform, Romania.\nService Scrapbooks About the project Your stories\n\u00a9 2018 Royal College of NursingLegal PolicyPrivacy\nCopyright: This website is licensed under aCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.0 UK: England & Wales Licence.

        "raw_content": "Cities could play a key role in pollinator conservation \u2013 University of Reading\nReading home> News and Events > Press Releases > Cities could play a key role in pollinator conservation\nCities could provide an unexpected lifeline for pollinators, as they face increasing pressures on agricultural land, according to new research.\nA study involving scientists at the University of Reading has revealed gardens and allotments are conservation havens for bees and other pollinating insects. It also showed that some of the weeds in gardens and allotments provide them with crucial food sources.\nWhile there have been a few small-scale studies on pollinators in some urban land uses, this is the first-time scientists have considered cities in their entirety. The scientists recommend that public greenspaces are managed to improve existing spaces and add others, such as roadside verges, to help pollinators thrive.\nProfessor Simon Potts, Professor of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services and Director of the Centre for Agri-Environmental Research at the University of Reading, said: \u201cBy assessing all major urban land uses for the first time, we found that we are not only undervaluing the importance of gardens and allotments, but also completely missing the opportunity to use less obvious greenspaces that are abundant in cities. Making simple changes to the way these spaces are managed could unlock the potential of cities to be important places for pollinator conservation.\u201d\nWatch a video on the findings >>>\nThe study, published today in Nature Ecology and Evolution, found that residential gardens and allotments are particularly good for pollinators, with dandelions, thistles, brambles, lavender, borage and buttercups important plant species for pollinators in urban areas.\nThe team also designed a new measure of management success, based on community robustness, that considers the stability of whole communities of pollinators, and not just individual species. Robustness is a measure of how a community responds to species loss; robust communities can survive the disappearance of some species but species loss in fragile communities leads to a domino effect of other extinctions.\nThe main recommendations from the study are:\nPublic greenspaces should be managed so they benefit pollinators. Parks, road verges and other public greenspaces make up around a third of cities but have fewer pollinator visits and resources for pollinators than other land uses. The research shows that increasing the numbers of flowers, for example by mowing less often, can help urban pollinators.\nGardens make up a quarter to a third of the area of UK cities and better garden management in new developments and existing gardens is likely to benefit pollinator conservation.\nCity planners and local councils should increase the number of allotments (community gardens) in towns and cities. Allotments (community gardens) are good for pollinators as well as people and increasing their area even by a small amount could have a large positive effect on pollinators.\nDr Katherine Baldock, NERC Knowledge Exchange Fellow and lead researcher from the School of Biological Sciences and the Cabot Institute at the University of Bristol, said: \u201cBy understanding the impact of each urban land use on pollinators, whether it\u2019s gardens, allotments, road verges or parks, we can make cities better places for pollinators.\u201d\nThe Reading Bee Team, within the School of Agriculture, Policy and Development, carries out cutting-edge research and engages with the United Nations, industry and governments to stop a potential global crisis.\nPollinators benefit production of more 75% of global food crops. We can thank them for foods like apples, strawberries, coffee and cocoa.\nAmong areas of research for the Reading team are how climate change and land use are affecting pollinators, and changes we can all make to protect them, from gardeners and farmers to governments.\nThe new research was carried out by scientists at the Universities of Bristol, Edinburgh, Leeds and Reading in collaboration with Cardiff University and the National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center (SESYNC).\nThe researchers worked in collaboration with local councils and Wildlife Trusts during the research including: Bristol City Council; City of Edinburgh Council; Leeds City Council; Reading Borough Council; Avon Wildlife Trust; Yorkshire Wildlife Trust; Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wildlife Trust and the National Museum of Wales.\nKatherine C.

        "raw_content": "Review: Arabella of Mars\nI think David D. Levine has invented an entire new subgenre with this book. I'm calling it \"Pulp Steampunk Regency.\" Pulp because it harkens back to the sort of rip-roaring adventure that was first promulgated by Jules Verne; Steampunk because of airships and automatons; and Regency because the book is set in the England (and Mars) of 1813, with all the retrograde views of women, people of color (and, as it turns out, aliens) that the time period entails.\nBut whatever you want to call it, it's a helluva rocket (or rather airship) ride. To modern eyes, of course, the \"science\" is complete nonsense. There are no \"swamps of Venus\" or a breathable atmosphere on Mars, much less an atmosphere (and soil) that allows for the growth of forests. There is no \"intraplanetary atmosphere,\" or an ocean of air between the planets themselves that replaces hard vacuum and permits airship travel to Mars, Venus and presumably other planets in the solar system. But this is no more ridiculous than the FTL drives that have been a mainstay of SF for nigh on to forever. I can forgive a lot of things if a world and its rules are well thought out and the characters are engaging. This book qualifies on both counts.\nOur protagonist Arabella Ashby undergoes quite a bit of personal growth over the course of this story. She learns her own strength, both physical and mental, and though at the end she is forced to marry to assure the succession of her family's Martian estate (because the British Empire of 1813 encompasses all the settled planets, apparently), her husband-to-be turns the formula on its head by being a person of color. The author actually handles the racism/sexism/classism elements of the time period pretty well, all things considered. This is a book that sneaks up on you--the further along I read, the more I liked it. (And Levine's airships are much better than some, for instance Jim Butcher's.)\nThis particular storyline is wrapped up by the end, but a few lingering questions assure a sequel. I'm looking forward to it.",

        "raw_content": "The department has seen revenue increase by 3.93% to \u00a3602bn in the past year, the first time it has breached the \u00a3600bn threshold within a 12-month period.\nSugar rush?\nAlthough it only accounted for a tiny percentage of the record revenues, the first contribution from the new sugar tax added approximately \u00a361m to the total, according to accountancy firm Blick Rothenberg\u2019s calculations, which is in line with the government\u2019s target of \u00a3240m for the year.\nMuch of the increase, however, has come from PAYE and NIC receipts, which have been boosted by the high employment rate, although the contribution from corporation tax rose by 6% and VAT receipts were up as well.\nThe picture is less rosy when it comes to stamp duty land tax (SDLT), however, as revenue from SDLT had pretty much flatlined over the past 12 months. This has been impacted by the slowdown in the number of property transactions as a result of the higher rates of SDLT, the buy-to-let mortgage interest restriction and uncertainty about Brexit.\nThere has also been an overall fall in self-assessment receipts (down 1.67%), despite record revenue of \u00a39bn in July from self-assessment income tax.\nCashing in?\nAn increasing number of Britons are now warning HMRC against their neighbours if they suspect they are evading taxes \u2013 which is also contributing to record tax revenues. There were 40,695 calls to the Revenue\u2019s tax evasion hotline in 2017/18 \u2013 more than double the amount it received in the previous year (20,200).\nSince 2013/14, HMRC has paid more than \u00a32.2m to informants, but the amount has declined every year since 2014/2015. HMRC paid \u00a3343,500 in rewards to informants last year, compared to \u00a3421,460 in 2016/17 and \u00a3604,800 in 2014/15.\nEven though HMRC said it was unable to provide a figure of how much tax was collected as a result of those tips, Penny Ciniewicz, director general of customer compliance said, \u201cLast year, HMRC secured an additional \u00a330.3bn in tax through our work to tackle error, avoidance and evasion, and intelligence we receive from the public makes an important contribution to our work to close the tax gap and fund our vital public services.\u201d\nThe UK\u2019s tax gap, which is the difference between the amount of tax that should be paid to HMRC and what is actually paid, increased to \u00a333bn in 2016/17.\nThe gap was made up of eight factors. These were failure to take reasonable care (\u00a35.9bn), criminal acts (\u00a35.4bn), tax evasion (\u00a35.3bn), legal interpretation (\u00a35.3bn), non-payment (\u00a33.5bn), error (\u00a33.2bn), hidden economy (\u00a33.2bn) and finally tax avoidance (\u00a31.7bn). Some of you clearly still have work to do to find that missing money!\nFollowing reports that the Government also recently registered its biggest surplus in 18 years, attention is gathering around Chancellor Philip Hammond to see how best to spend it all, with various public services crying out for more cash. The NHS and reducing borrowing are high priorities, but the Autumn statement will no doubt paint a clearer picture of what\u2019s to be invested where.\nSend your suggestions for where you\u2019d like to see it spent on a postcard!",

        "raw_content": "Chanukah Guilt\u2026 I mean Gelt: Navigating Chanukah Parties using Emotionally Focused Therapy\nPosted by Dani Bauer on December 12, 2017 November 30, 2018\nFor many, the holiday season is the most difficult time of the year. In fact, because so many people have a hard time during the holidays, therapists will often find themselves working overtime. What is it that can be so hard about holidays? The family get-togethers. These are where the same old fights are rehashed, and the same feuds rear their ugly heads.\nWhat is the best way to navigate these challenges? What approach should I take at yet another Chanukah party where Aunt Sylvia constantly criticizes me for not choosing a particular career path? Is it even possible not to blow up in her face?\nHow do we survive \u2013 or even enjoy \u2013 the holiday season?\nThe Cycle is To Blame\nThe foremost thing to remember is that the enemy is the cycle, not the people. Meaning, we tend to find ourselves in the same endless arguments with the same family members. Feelings get hurt, and then we do the same thing at the next get-together. We identify the person with whom we get into the most arguments and then assume that they are the problem. That way, we conveniently have someone to blame, and it\u2019s not ourselves.\nA healthier approach might be to think of the cycle itself as the problem, and we the guilty participants. The problem is not that Aunt Sylvia is bad, and it\u2019s not that I am impossible. The problem is that our interactions together need fixing. We stumble into the same pattern over and over, and it is the interactions between the two of us that need to change.\nThere are a lot of different ways to change, but I think a good starting point is considering primary emotions and secondary emotions. One of the tenets of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is that there is a vast array of emotions, and the more we understand them, the more control we gain over them. Learning to understand our emotions can help us learn how to use them and focus them properly.\nEFT theorizes that some emotions are what we are really feeling, and other emotions may appear on the surface but aren\u2019t really at the heart of the issue. If I trip and someone laughs at me, for example, I may express anger towards them even though my true feeling is embarrassment.\nOne of the first steps to gaining control over our emotions is to identify and name what we are really feeling. Once we do that, we can express what we are feeling to others, and the conversation can then shift. Rather than yelling at everyone to get out of the kitchen, or lashing out at Aunt Sylvia for her constant criticism, I can react differently. I can explain that I feel rejected when Aunt Sylvia only focuses on my brother\u2019s accomplishments and ignores mine. I can express hurt, or say that it feels like someone has no confidence in me, or that I feel marginalized.\nAs a disclaimer, I would add that this approach works only when both parties are interested in change. If I am not interested in improving the situation, then you can be as in touch with your emotions as you want, but I may not reciprocate the same kind of sensitivity or awareness.\nFinally, if I recognize how I am really feeling instead of leaving it as simply \u201cangry\u201d or \u201cfrustrated\u201d, I gain more power over how I choose to react in a given situation. Recognizing that what I am really feeling is rejected will likely keep me from displaying anger and pushing others away. Ultimately, this EFT-based approach can lend me power in taking charge of my life and my choices.\nThis Chanukah, like others before it, will have its parties and family get-togethers. Some of them we wish we could go to, and others we would find any excuse to avoid. Wherever we find ourselves, let\u2019s do our best to be a light to others. By recognizing and expressing our primary emotions, we can set the tone for communicating in a helpful, intentional manner.\nPlease click here to read Dani Bauer\u2019s other pieces.\nMarriage Advisor at Refuat Hanefesh\nRabbi Dani Bauer, originally from Brooklyn, NY, earned a Bachelor\u2019s of Talmudic Law at Yeshivat Sha'alvim in Israel and a Bachelor's in Psychology at Lander College for Men.

        "raw_content": "EU privacy watchdog weighs in on data protection reform, shares concerns\nHe also released an app that allows legislators and citizens to compare the proposed texts of the upcoming data protection regulation\nFlags in front of the European Commission headquarters in Brussels on June 17, 2015\nAs European Union lawmakers in the Commission, Parliament and Council debate a new data protection law, the EU's data protection watchdog has chimed in, expressing some concerns and saying individuals' privacy rights should be at the core of the legislation.\nAlthough he is perhaps best placed to offer an opinion on the matter, legislators have no obligation to listen to European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) Giovanni Buttarelli, who released his own proposed draft of the law on Monday.\nA lot is at stake, said Buttarelli. \"This reform will shape data processing for a generation which has no memory of living without the internet. The EU must therefore fully understand the implications of this act for individuals, and its sustainability in the face of technological development.\"\nButtarelli has no legislative powers, but hopes to influence the negotiations between the European Parliament, the European Commission and representatives of European countries gathered in the Council of the EU. Those three legislative bodies are trying to reach a compromise agreement on the bloc's new data protection law before the end of the year.\nA new regulation must replace an outdated one from 1995, and is important to citizens and tech companies alike. EU legislators are trying to get the law ready for a digital age where use of the Internet, smartphones and cloud computing are common.\nButtarelli gave his opinion in a 12-page document. But he also took a more modern approach, releasing an app for iOS and Android that allows legislators and citizens to compare the proposed texts of the upcoming data protection regulation side-by-side. It includes the proposals made by the three legislative bodies as well as his own.\nWhile the various texts proposed by legislators are on the right track, serious concerns remain, he said.\nFor instance, he disagreed with a Council proposal to allow companies that process data to share that with a third party if there is a \"legitimate interest\" to do so. Since a company's legitimate interests include making a profit, perhaps through the sale of personal data, this gives insufficient protection for individuals, he said. The EU should also prevent direct access by third country authorities to data located in the EU, he said.\nPeople should be able to take data stored about them from one company to another, either by direct transfer or by receiving a copy of the data which they themselves can transfer elsewhere, he said.\nButtarelli is in favor of hefty fines for companies that violate the upcoming law. In agreement with Parliament, he proposed fines of up to \u20ac100 million (US$110 million) or up to 5 percent of an enterprise's annual worldwide revenue, whichever is higher. The Commission and the Council both favored limiting fines to \u20ac1 million or 2 percent of a company's global annual revenue. Fines for antitrust breaches, in comparison, can be up to 10 percent of worldwide revenue.\nHe also looked at personal data breaches, which in his opinion should be reported to the relevant authority within 72 hours. That's in line with the Council's proposal, although it does give companies a get-out by saying the deadline should apply only \"when feasible.\" The Commission wants a deadline of 24 hours, also only \"when feasible,\" while Parliament proposed notifying the relevant authority \"without undue delay\" but without specifying a time frame.\nTags governmentprivacylegislationeuropean commissionEuropean ParliamentEuropean Data Protection SupervisorCouncil of the European Union",

These models are wonderful for homeowners in Milford, CT who use hot water on the regular but want it fresh and not sitting around in their tank for quite some time before use. You see, a tankless water heater is quite simple; instead of storing water, it warms the water as you need it.\nTankless Water Heaters Repairs\nTankless water heaters do require regular maintenance, just like their tanked counterparts. With a tankless system, the burner may become clogged over time, which will result in hot portions that could cause damage to the heat exchanger. Should this be the case, call in Rick\u2019s Plumbing to look over the whole system and perform efficient repairs.\nIf you\u2019re considering switching from a traditional water heater to a tankless water heater, you\u2019re on the way to making a good choice. Here are just a few of the advantages of tankless water heaters:\nTankless units never run out of hot water.\nHomeowners with tankless water heaters can get federal tax rebates of up to $300.\nA tankless water heater takes less space than a traditional heater (can be installed on walls or outside).\nUnits typically last five to 10 years longer than the average water heater.\nA tankless unit uses just enough power to heat water at the moment.\nElectric models do not produce any greenhouse gases.\nHigh-efficiency models can cut 20 percent off your monthly water heating bills.\nThe advantages far outweigh the disadvantage of initial cost, which most homeowners recoup within a matter of months. Make the switch today; your home and your wallet will thank you!\nHigh-Efficiency Tankless Water Heater\nAt Rick\u2019s Plumbing, we carry the top name-brand tankless water heaters on the market. We choose to only work with high-quality, high-efficiency models. Our clients enjoy such benefits as lower monthly bills and less wasted resources.\nA high-efficiency tankless water heater is designed to provide comfort and convenience. When it works properly, it supplies the whole home with hot water on a constant basis. A traditional water heater, by comparison, only heats a specific amount of water. Once that reservoir is empty, you must wait for more water to heat up. A tankless system makes hot water available whenever you need it, no matter how much you need. The time for waiting has passed. Switch to a tankless water heater system today!\nTankless Water Heaters Replacement\nJust like a tank water heater, tankless water heaters must be replaced every so often. The majority of systems will work wonderfully for a good eight to 12 years, then they should be replaced to ensure the hot water continues to flow.\nReplacing your water heater is a serious task that requires a steady professional hand to complete. More than simply installing a small heating unit goes into the replacement of an entire tankless system.\nTankless Water Heaters Installation Cost\nWith the cost of labor, the water heater itself, and any required piping or parts, the total cost of installing a brand new tankless water heater can vary greatly. It really depends on the type of unit you may want installed in your home or office, whether or not a unit must be replaced or installed completely fresh, and what has to be done to bring the system up to code. A 50-gallon water heater, for example, goes for around $1,000 to $1,700.\nTankless water heaters are the wave of the plumbing future. Rick\u2019s Plumbing has experience installing, replacing, and repairing these water heaters in homes just like yours. Contact us or call us at 203-874-6629.",

        "raw_content": "Harvard groups tap microfluidics for single-cell RNA-seq methods\nPosted by: RNA-Seq Blog in Press Release, Workflow May 26, 2015\t12,933 Views\nImagine someone hands you a smoothie and asks you to identify everything that went into it.\nYou might be able to discern a hint of strawberry or the tang of yogurt. But overall it tastes like a blend of indiscernible ingredients.\nNow imagine that the smoothie is made of 20,000 ground-up cells from, say, the brain.\nYou could run tests to determine what molecules are in the sample, which is what scientists do now. That would certainly give you useful information, but it wouldn\u2019t tell you which cells those molecules originally came from. It would provide only an average cell profile for the whole smoothie.\nAnd when it comes to the tissues in our bodies, averages are almost always misleading. Just as you know there isn\u2019t an \u201caverage\u201d food called strawbanaspinach-orangegurt, scientists know there isn\u2019t just one cell type in the brain.\n\u201cIf you take a hunk of tissue and grind it up and analyze the RNA, you have no idea if it represents what every cell in that population is doing or what no cell in the population is doing,\u201d said Marc Kirschner, the John Franklin Enders University Professor of Systems Biology and chair of the Department of Systems Biology at Harvard Medical School. \u201cImagine if you had a population of men and women. If you assume everyone is an average of men and women, you [probably] wouldn\u2019t represent a single person in that population.\u201d\nThe trouble is, it\u2019s expensive, time-consuming and tricky to characterize tissues one cell, or cell type, at a time.\nKirschner and Steven McCarroll, assistant professor of genetics at HMS, reported this week in separate papers that their labs have developed high-throughput techniques to quickly, easily and inexpensively give every cell in a sample a unique genetic barcode before it goes into the blender.\nAs a result, scientists can analyze complex tissues by profiling each individual cell\u2013no averaging required.\n\u201cDifferent cells in a tissue use the same genome in amazingly diverse ways: to engineer specialized cell shapes, accomplish diverse feats of physiology, and mount distinct functional responses to the same stimulus. These techniques will finally let science understand how biological systems operate at that single-cell level,\u201d said McCarroll, who is also director of genetics for the Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. \u201cWe are so excited about the work ahead.\u201d\nTo make their tools, both teams collaborated with David Weitz, the Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics and Applied Physics at Harvard\u2019s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and a pioneer in the field of microfluidics.\nThe teams expect that their techniques, published concurrently in the journal Cell, will equip biologists to discover and classify cell types in the body in much greater depth, map cell diversity in complex tissues such as the brain, better understand stem cell differentiation and gain more insights into the genetics of disease.\nHarvard\u2019s Office of Technology Development has been working closely with the researchers to develop patent applications for various aspects of the technology, all with an eye toward commercialization.\n\u2018Two roads diverged in a yellow wood\u2019\nEvan Macosko and Allon Klein met in a microfluidics class a few years ago. Then they went their separate ways.\nUnbeknownst to each other, they decided to develop methods to answer the same question: How could they obtain gene expression profiles for thousands of individual cells to better understand the complexity of gene expression within a tissue?\nGene expression\u2013the pattern of gene activity in a particular cell\u2013underlies every process in biology, from cognition in the brain to development in the egg. Scientists have known for 50 years that gene expression varies from cell to cell like a fingerprint, making skin cells different from liver cells and making some liver cells different from others. But they haven\u2019t been able to measure it efficiently at the single-cell level in samples with many cell types.\nMacosko, HMS instructor in psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital and a Stanley Neuroscience Fellow in the McCarroll lab, came up with a technique he called Drop-seq. Klein, assistant professor of systems biology at HMS, devised a method he called indexing droplets for sequencing, or inDrops.\nLast fall, they learned about each other\u2019s work through the scientific conference circuit.\n\u201cIt was kind of like meeting your doppelg\u00e4nger,\u201d said Macosko. \u201cHe had been thinking about the same things I had for two years. Human beings have different ways of solving problems, and it was really cool to see how he did it.\u201d\nThe teams each developed ways of using tiny beads to deliver vast numbers of different DNA barcodes into hundreds of thousands of nanometer-sized water droplets simultaneously.\nThanks to Weitz\u2019s expertise, both methods were able to use microfluidic devices to co-encapsulate cells in these droplets along with the beads. The droplets get created in a tiny assembly line, streaming along a channel the width of a human hair.\nThe bead barcodes get attached to the genes in each cell, so that scientists can sequence the genes all in one batch and still trace each gene back to the cell it came from.\nMacosko and Klein make their beads in different ways. The droplets get broken up at different steps in the process. Other aspects of the chemistry diverge. But the result is the same.\nAfter running a single batch of cells through Drop-seq or inDrops, scientists \u201ccan see which genes are expressed in the entire sample\u2013and can sort by each individual cell,\u201d said Klein.\nThey can then use computer software to uncover patterns in the mix, including which cells have similar gene expression profiles. That provides a way to classify what cell types were in the original tissue\u2013and to possibly discover new ones.\nCurrent methods allow researchers to generate 96 single-cell expression profiles in a day for several thousand dollars. Drop-seq, by comparison, enables 10,000 profiles a day for 6.5 cents each.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re a biologist with an interesting question in mind, this approach could shine a light on the problem without bankrupting you,\u201d said Macosko. \u201cIt finally makes gene expression profiling on a cell-by-cell level tractable and accessible. I think it\u2019s something biologists in a lot of fields will want to use.\u201d\nRather than competing with each other, the teams believe that having two options available in Drop-seq and inDrops will benefit the scientific community.\n\u201cEach method has unique elements that makes it better for different applications. Biologists will be able to choose which one is most appropriate for them,\u201d said Macosko.\nMcCarroll, Macosko and their colleagues are excited to explore the brain with Drop-seq.\nWith luck, that will include discovering new cell types, constructing a global architecture of those cell types in the brain and understanding brain development and function as they relate to disease.\nAmong the questions they want to pursue are: What are all the cell types that make the brain work? How do these cell types vary in their functions and responses to stimuli? What cell populations are missing or malfunctioning in schizophrenia, autism and other disorders of the brain?\nClassifying cell types may not sound exciting, said Joshua Sanes, the Jeff C. Tarr Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology and the Paul J. Finnegan Family Director of the Center for Brain Science at Harvard University and a co-author of the Drop-seq paper, but it lays the foundation for mapping neuronal circuits and one day being able to probe the mystery of how the \u201cwetware\u201d of the brain gives rise to thoughts, emotions and behaviors.\nIn the shorter term, Sanes looks forward to completing a catalog of cell types in the mouse retina. Drop-seq has already revealed several new ones.\nKirschner, Klein and their colleagues, meanwhile, are keenly interested in other areas, including stem cell development.\n\u201cDoes a population of cells that we initially think is uniform actually have some substructure?\u201d Klein wants to know; he\u2019s trying to find out by studying immune cells and different kinds of adult stem cells. \u201cWhat is the nature of an early developing stem cell? What endows those cells with a pluripotent state? Is gene expression more plastic or does it have a well-defined state that\u2019s different from a more mature cell? How is its fate determined?\u201d\nUsing inDrops, Klein and team have confirmed prior findings that suggest even embryonic stem cells are not uniform. They found previously undiscovered cell types in the population they studied, as well as cells in intermediate stages that they suspect are converting from one type to another.\nAlthough both teams are excited by the massive amounts of data they and other researchers will obtain from Drop-seq and inDrops, they realize the sheer volume of information poses a problem as well.\n\u201cWe have thousands of cells expressing tens of thousands of genes. We can\u2019t look in 20,000 directions to pick out interesting features,\u201d said Klein.\nMachine learning is able to do some of that, and the teams have already employed new statistical techniques. Still, Kirschner has called on mathematicians and computer scientists to develop new ideas about how to analyze and extract useful information about our biology from the mountains of data that are on the horizon.\nMore info about Drop-seq is availble here: http://mccarrolllab.com/dropseq/\nMacosko EZ, Basu A, Satija R, Nemesh J, Shekhar K, Goldman M, Tirosh I, Bialas AR, Kamitaki N, Martersteck EM, Trombetta JJ, Weitz DA, Sanes JR, Shalek AK, Regev A, McCarroll SA.

        "title": "Biography - Rob Riemen",
        "raw_content": "Rob Riemen (1962) is a writer and the founder of the Nexus Institute. He studied Theology at Tilburg University and remembers this time as his magic mountain-era, after Thomas Mann\u2019s masterpiece \u2018The Magic Mountain\u2019. Questions that occupied his mind were: What does humanity mean and what is life? How come European humanism has vanished to exist as an ideal of civilization? What is the value of art, and of culture?\n\u201cWhen I was a student I had the privilege to interview Harry Mulisch. One of the things I asked him in the context of a conversation on the Second World War and literature was, \u2018What good does literature? What knowledge does it have to offer?\u2019 The writer\u2019s answer: \u2018Political and historical scholarship is good for knowing the facts: who did what, what happened when. But if you really want to understand what fascism is, how things got that far, you need read Thomas Mann\u2019s Doctor Faustus.\u201d\nMulish was certain that, to gain insight into the human soul, as well as in social and political issues, you need to read the books of Dostojevki, Tolstoi, Shakespeare, Musil, Broch, Mann, Vargas Llosa, Marquez. These authors can help us in our search for truth.\nIn cooperation with his dear friend Johan Polak, who magnanimously shared his valuable experience in publishing, Riemen launched the Dutch journal Nexus in 1991. To both, the relevance of a new magazine is obvious: Nexus is to serve the European culture, the European ideal of civilization. The thematically connected essays are written by both famous and upcoming international authors. Or as Riemen puts it:\n\u201cA journal with this era in mind but not of this time; societally relevant but not political; with space for the religious and philosophical questions but not a journal of religion or philosophy; its quality intellectual, but accessible.\u201d\nAlongside Nexus as a platform for the written word, Riemen widens the possibilities when in 1994 he establishes the Nexus Institute to make way for the spoken word. The Nexus Institute brings together the world\u2019s foremost intellectuals, artists and politicians to think and talk about the questions that really matter. How are we to live? How can we shape our future? Can we learn from our past? Which values and ideas are important, and what are they based on? Speakers included Sonia Gandhi, Michael Ignatieff, Mario Vargas Llosa, George Steiner, Francis Fukuyama, Richard Dawkins, John Coetzee, Susan Sontag, Richard Rorty and J\u00fcrgen Habermas.\nIn 2008, Yale University Press publishes Rob Riemen\u2019s first book Nobility of Spirit. A forgotten Ideal. It is well received in The Guardian and The Wall Street Journal. The plea for the revival of classical humanist values is translated worldwide and has readers in Europe, the United States, South America, Russia and Asia.\nIn The University of Life, published in Dutch in 2013, Rob Riemen has conversations with nineteen friends from Europe, America and the Middle East, all past the age of 65. They are publishers, musicians, writers, philosophers and scientists; they are people with an intellectual, political or artistic passion. Each of them has been on a long and eventful journey through life. The important question central to these conversations: what has life taught you?\nIn 2018 To Figh Against This Age was published: a book combining two urgent essays about the rise of fascism and the ways in which we can combat it. The book received laudatory reviews in The New York Times and the Financial Times. It quickly became an international bestseller, with translations in Spanish, Catalan, Turkish and Korean.\nRob Riemen receives invitations for lectures worldwide. Just a small selection: he spoke at the Lowlands Festival in The Netherlands, the M\u00e1rio Soares Foundation in Portugal, the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, the Johns Hopkins University in Shanghai, Tsinghua University in Beijing, The National Council for Culture and the Arts, and UNAM in Mexico, Bard College in New York, the University of California, Yale University, The Aspen Institute in Colorado, Bibliotheca Alexandrina in Egypt, and Maison du Futur in Lebanon.\nInterview for Big Think\nCurriculum Vitae in books, essays & lectures\nIn the curriculum vitae you will find an overview of Rob Riemen\u2019s publications, lectures and participation in debates.\nInterview by Mark Sarvas for The Elegant Variation. What would you advise a young reader staring with trepidation at \u2018The Magic Mountain\u2019 or \u2018Doctor Faustus\u2019?\nLowlands lecture\nWhy have we forgotten what is important in life? At the Lowlands Festival Rob Riemen gave a lecture on the effects of ignoring fascist tendencies in our current society.",

The article is called Half of landlords affected by removal of wear and tear allowance and is located at https://www.rocketlawyer.co.uk/blog/half-of-landlords-affected-by-removal-of-wear-and-tear-allowance/.\nManaging property, News, Property / Harvey Harding / 03 Sep 2015\nAlmost half (47 per cent) of landlords will be affected by the removal of the annual wear and tear allowance, according to new findings from the National Landlords Association (NLA).\nThe research findings show that a quarter of landlords (24 per cent) let their properties fully furnished, with 22 per cent letting a mixture of furnished and unfurnished properties.\nJust over half of landlords (53 per cent) let their properties on an unfurnished basis, the new report says.\nThe news comes shortly after the government announced its intention to scrap the annual wear and tear allowance \u2013 which is only available for furnished properties \u2013 and replace it with a tax relief system that enables all landlords to deduct the costs they actually incur on replacing furnishings in the property.\nThe new system, currently under consultation until 9th October, will apply from 6th April 2016 for Income Tax purposes and 1st April 2016 for Corporation Tax, and will cover the cost of replacement furniture, furnishings, appliances and kitchenware provided for tenants including:\nMovable furniture and furnishings\nChris Norris, Head of Policy at the National Landlords Association, said: \u201cWe fully understand the frustration of those landlords who let exclusively on a furnished basis as the removal of this allowance will very likely represent a reduction in the relief they can claim.\n\u201cHowever, it will come as a welcome revision for those letting a mixed portfolio, unfurnished, or part-furnished property as the replacement system will allow them to deduct legitimate revenue expenses in the future.\n\u201cThe NLA has broadly welcomed these proposals as it should lead to a fairer system for more landlords.\n\u201cHowever, as we transition from one system to another, we will push to make sure that any landlords who\u2019ve made recent investments with the expectation of offsetting the cost over a number of years using the current allowance, will not be disadvantaged.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Willhoft wanted to be closer to her daughter and grandchildren so she left the familiarity of the Bay Area peninsula where she lived and worked for several years and headed for the hills.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unique, small, very warm and friendly,\u201d she said of Versante. \u201cEverybody knows one another, and everybody who lives here loves it. It\u2019s a comfortable place to be.\u201d\nShe likes the active lifestyle. She\u2019s the community\u2019s social committee chairman, and she and her friends enjoy potluck meals, monthly gatherings and playing bridge and pinochle.\nSerrano residents like living in the hills next to the Serrano Country Club and championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr.\nDeveloped by the Parker Co., Serrano offers custom homes, a 34,000-square-foot clubhouse, 17 miles of biking trails and 1,000 acres of open space.\nStandard Pacific Homes\u2019 Legacy Oaks at Serrano offers homesites with views of the hills, open spaces and restored wetlands. Legacy Oaks has four home plans ranging from 2,566 square feet to 3,364 square feet, with as many as five bedrooms. Prices start at $440,000.\nOn the opposite side of Highway 50 in the El Dorado foothills is master-planned Blackstone, which has a homeowner-exclusive clubhouse, a swimming pool and a fitness center.\nLennar will celebrate the grand opening of its Shenandoah at Blackstone this weekend. The builder\u2019s \u201cNext Gen\u201d multigenerational homes have three to five bedrooms and can be as large as 3,491 square feet. Prices start at $439,950.\nTaylor Morrison\u2019s Pinnacle at Blackstone features homes ranging from 2,541 square feet to 3,402 square feet, with as many as four bedrooms. Prices start in the low $400,000s.\n\u201cResale activity is just popping,\u201d said Kendra Bishop, a broker associate for Bishop Real Estate Group, Coldwell Banker. \u201cI\u2019ve seen kind of a flop in the last few months, where the market has shifted. We have low inventory with an excess of buyers. It helps that interest rates are so good. We are seeing a lot of cash in the marketplace as well.\u201d\nThe average list price for a home is $677,000; the average sales price is $474,000. The lowest list price of a home is $215,000, and the highest $5,875,000. The latter property has been on the market for 470 days.\nMost high-end homes are priced at approximately $2 million. Condominiums and townhouses are listed at $127,000.\nEl Dorado Hills has a range of businesses and attractions that appeal to residents and visitors alike. The area has some of the region\u2019s best restaurants, as well as specialty shopping centers with boutiques, warehouse stores, movie theaters and entertainment venues.\nSelland\u2019s Market-Cafe, a staple in Sacramento, has opened in the El Dorado Hills Town Center, which also has Bistro 33 and other fine dining and casual restaurant. Town Center and the newest shopping destination, Monta\u00f1o de El Dorado, have a variety of shops, salons and services.\n\u201cIt seems like El Dorado Hills is positioning for growth \u2014 otherwise, Selland\u2019s wouldn\u2019t have moved in,\u201d said Linda Ellen Anderson, board chairman of the El Dorado Hills Chamber of Commerce and a Realtor with Intero Real Estate Services.\nThe El Dorado Welcome Center is thriving, Anderson said. Last year the center greeted almost 12,950 people. Next to Regal Cinemas\u2019 Imax theaters, the center has information on the community and area attractions.\nThe chamber of commerce and the El Dorado Hills Community Services District stage events year-round that attract crowds.\nThe district will kick off its Friday Concerts in the Park series May 18, with a celebration featuring giveaways, food and music at El Dorado Hills\u2019 community park.Concerts will be held every Thursday evening at the Steven Young Amphitheater at Town Center.\nA spring egg hunt is planned for April 7 at the community park. The El Dorado Hills Art and Wine Affair, with vendors and wine tasting, is set for May 12-13 in the Town Center, the locale for a weekly Showcase Saturday, featuring live bands and vendors. Also popular is a farmers market Sundays at the center.\nThe community services district oversees youth sports, teen programs, a skate park, a senior center and public parks, one of which is named for Allen H. Lindsey, an El Dorado Hills developer.\nEl Dorado Hills was originally known as Clarkston\u2019s Town during the Gold Rush and was renamed Clarksville in 1855.\nMore than a century later, Lindsey renamed the area El Dorado Hills after purchasing 20 parcels of ranchland totaling 11,000 acres. He designed a master plan for what he hoped would be a community of 75,000 people, according to his daughter, Valerie Lindsey, and \u201cThe El Dorado Hills Handbook\u201d by Anna van Raaphorst-Johnson and Richard H. Johnson.\nEl Dorado Hills, as Allan Lindsey proposed, was developed into 12 distinct villages, defined by terrain, natural parks, streets and architectural style.\nPark Village was the first to open in 1962, followed by Governors and St. Andrews. Lindsey envisioned a bedroom community for employees at Aerojet and Mather Air Force Base, said Valerie Lindsey, who worked with her father in the development business for 25 years. But as models opened in 1962, Aerojet laid off workers, and sales lagged. Lindsey sold his company to the John Hancock Insurance Co.\nHis vision of villages continued, with developments that include Crown, Stonegate, the Promontory, Franciscan and Serrano.\nApproximately 50 villages are noted in \u201cThe El Dorado Hills Handbook,\u201d far more than the original dozen Lindsey planned.\nHis vision continues today as builders offer new homes in scenic areas of town.\nTaylor Morrison Homes is offering Pinnacle at Blackstone, where most homes offer hillside views such as this. Homes have as many as four bedrooms and range from 2,541 square feet to 3,402 square feet.Dave Henry\nSelland's Market-Cafe, a staple in Sacramento, has opened in the El Dorado Hills Town Center, which also offers Bistro 33 and other restaurants.Dave Henry\nVisitors tour a model home during Standard Pacific Homes' Feb. 11 grand opening of Legacy Oaks at Serrano in El Dorado Hills.Dave Henry\nThis home on Greenview Drive, offered by Coldwell Banker, is typical of resale properties in El Dorado Hills.Dave Henry",

        "title": "Most Popular Animals to See in Sandbridge Beach - Sandbridge Blue Blog | Sandbridge Vacation Rentals",
        "raw_content": "Most Popular Animals to See in Sandbridge Beach\nSandbridge Beach is a quiet place, but if you look carefully, you\u2019ll see a whole world of busy creatures going about their business. Thanks to Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, Sandbridge Beach is home to hundreds of species of fish, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. Here are some of the animals you\u2019ll love to look for during your stay.\nTopping the list is the Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin. Dolphins are abundant at Sandbridge Beach, and are often seen from the beach or the pier. They like to swim in groups called pods, so if you see one, you\u2019ll likely see several more. The best time to see dolphins at Sandbridge is between Memorial Day and Labor Day around sunrise and sunset.\nBlack bears are common to inland Virginia, but they can also be seen around Sandbridge Beach from time to time. Black bears aren\u2019t aggressive, but if you happen to see one, give it plenty of room (and never feed them).\nGray foxes are small, about 2 or 3 feet long, and weigh about 8 pounds. They can be seen around Sandbridge Beach, especially in Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, but many people mistake them for small dogs at first. They\u2019re shy, harmless, and smart, so they are fun animals to watch.\nBats are an essential part of the ecosystem at Sandbridge Beach, though they sometimes get a bad rap. In fact, bats are useful, gentle, smart, and can live up to 30 years. (They also have sweet little fuzzy faces.) Sandbridge is home to 5 kinds of bats, including big brown bats, evening bats, red bats, and Easter big-eared bats.\nOur bats do us a favor by eating mosquitos and other flying insects. In fact, a single bat can eat up to 1,000mosquitos and cockroaches in one hour.\nIf you see a bat in Sandbridge Beach, it\u2019s your opportunity to marvel at these helpful flying mammals instead of being afraid. Watch for them at sunset, especially near tall trees, piers, or bridges.\nSpeaking of flying, if you see a small mammal floating through the air \u2014 you\u2019re not going crazy. Flying squirrels make Sandbridge Beach their home, and they are interesting to watch. They don\u2019t really fly, though \u2014 instead, they jump from branches and spread their webbed arms out so they can glide on the air. They are primarily nocturnal, so keep an eye out for large guinea pig-like critters near sunset.\nSandbridge Beach has a unique population of rabbits called marsh rabbits. These cottontails are strong swimmers and are found on the coast. Marsh rabbits are much smaller than other rabbit species, so if you think you\u2019re seeing a baby bunny, you\u2019re probably looking at a marsh rabbit. Watch for these fuzzy creatures in the marsh or the dense brush at Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge.\nSmall herds of deer can be spotted in or around False Cape State Park and in Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. In summer, deer tend to come out in the cooler evening and morning temperatures to eat, so watch for them alongside roads if you\u2019re up early or headed to dinner after dark.\nBobcats are a bit of a mystery and a legend at Sandbridge Beach. A little larger than a housecat, bobcats are easily mistaken for stray cats in dim light or at night. They are sometimes sighted inside Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, but they\u2019ve also been seen (and heard) near First Landing State Park.\nFive kinds of sea turtles return to Sandbridge Beach to nest in the spring and summer: Loggerhead, Kemp\u2019s ridley, green turtle, leatherback, and hawksbill turtles are all much-beloved visitors to our shores. Sea turtles are protected, so if you see a nest, keep children and dogs away from it.\nSo many frog species make their home at Sandbridge Beach that you can make a game out of seeing how many different kinds you can find on your vacation. Sandbridge frog species have fun names such as Narrow mouth frog, cricket frog, spring peeper, squirrel tree frog, spade foot toad, Upland chorus frog, and Southern leopard frog. Pick up a frog identification guide online or at your local bookstore and enjoy getting to know our slippery friends.\nSalamanders are so plentiful at Sandbridge Beach that you probably won\u2019t need to look for them. These little creatures eat their weight in bugs hundreds of times over every day; so if you see one, let it go on its way.\nSandbridge Beach is an animal (and reptile) lover\u2019s paradise. Whether you make a special trip to Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge or just take in your surroundings from the beach or water, our animal residents will be a memorable part of your vacation.\nPosted on April 25, 2018 April 6, 2018 Author Sandbridge BlueCategories Sandbridge Vacation TipsTags bats, black bears, bobcat, deer, flying squirrels, frogs, gray foxes, rabbits, salamanders, turtles\nPrevious Previous post: Pier shot \u2013 Memory Monday 4/23/18\nNext Next post: Dog\u2019s Welcome \u2013 Memory Monday 4/30/18\nSandbridge Vacation Tips\tTop 7 Vacation Budget Tips for Sandbridge Beach &#\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Parental Relocation & Move Away\nThere are different situations that may cause a parent to consider moving to another city, state or even country. It may be a career opportunity, may be considered for school-related purposes or may be done due to a desire to be closer to family. When parents share custody or visitation rights, however, a move away can become a complicated legal issue. Parental relocation, whether you are the custodial or non-custodial parent, is best addressed with the guidance and legal representation of an experienced San Diego divorce lawyer.\nCourt Approval for Move Away Cases\nWhen a parent wishes to relocate, it is absolutely crucial that he or she take no action without the authority of the family law court. If the court has issued a custody or visitation order, a parent who moves away without undergoing the proper legal proceedings may lose custody and/or visitation rights and may even face kidnapping charges in some cases.\nUnfortunately, getting permission for parental relocation can be complicated and difficult. The court has already made a ruling in the best interests of the child, and your relocation request will need to show that the move will be beneficial for the child.\nThe court will look at such issues as:\nThe reason for the move. A parent wishing to relocate simply to spite the other parent will not be taken seriously.\nThe impact the move will have on the child\u2019s relationship with the parent who is not moving.\nHow the move will affect the current custody and visitation arrangement. If the move is far away but is not too far for regular visits, it may be easier to obtain court approval.\nMake sure your case is properly presented and your parental rights protected in regard to your move away case.

        "raw_content": "Seeking Sinners and Jesus \u2013 the Bread of Life \u2013 John 6:22-32\nThe crowd of seeking sinners had stayed on the other side of the lake. They realized that only one boat had left to cross over to the other side and Jesus wasn\u2019t in it. While Jesus was absent from the crowd, He came to His disciples walking on the water to illustrate to us that we too come to Jesus through His shed blood and draw closer to Jesus by walking on the water of His Word anointed by the Holy Spirit. Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. Once the crowd realized that Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus. Vv23-24 These sinners were seeking Jesus because He had fed them physical bread to satisfy their hunger. When they found Him on the other side of the lake, they asked Him, \u201cRabbi, when did you get here?\u201d v25 They called Him Rabbi indicating that they saw Jesus as a religious leader but they did not see Him as the promised Messiah. Jesus didn't answer their question directly. Instead, He responds to their spiritual need.\nJesus answers them, \u201cI tell you the truth, you are looking for Me, not because you saw miraculous signs, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life,\u201d which the Son of Man will give you. On Him, God the Father has placed His seal of approval. Vv26-27 Jesus had multiplied the bread and the fish to feed this crowd physically. Now He will use this miracle to reveal to the crowd that He is the Bread of Life sent down from heaven. This crowd was following after Jesus for a free meal, but Jesus will now feed them spiritual food. Bread is the staple of life in the natural. The spiritual bread of the Anointed Word is also the staple of our spiritual life. A person can survive a long time on bread and water. God supplied the Israelites with bread and water to sustain them through their journey through the wilderness of sin in route to God\u2019s Promised Land, just as He supplies the spiritual water of the Anointed Word to sustain us through our journey in the wilderness of earth which is full of sin until we reach the Heavenly Promised Land. The bread and water of life \u2013 Jesus and the Holy Spirit \u2013 keeps our spiritual life surviving. Jesus wants this crowd to crave the spiritual food of His Anointed Word more than physical food that spoils. Physical satisfaction is fleeting, but the Word of God that believers feed upon is eternal and will never die. God\u2019s Word does not change because He and the written Word are Truth. The Word Incarnate \u2013 Jesus \u2013 brings spiritual life. Jesus on the cross labored and shed His pure blood so we could have spiritual life. His death brought our dead, fleshly lives to spiritual life when we receive and believe in Him. Jesus wants this crowd of seekers to labor for that which endures and is supplied by God \u2013 the Living, Anointed Word of God. Matthew 5:6: \u201cBlessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.\u201d There is no spiritual life or satisfaction in sin.\nGod put the seal of the Holy Spirit upon Jesus and the written Word. He has also sealed us as His own through the Bread of life \u2013 Jesus \u2013 and the water of life \u2013 the Holy Spirit. Jesus gave life to the world by giving His holy, spiritual life! When Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness, He said to Satan, \u201cman does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.\u201d (Deuteronomy 8:3; Matthew 4:4; Luke 4:4) God said this in the Older Testament and Jesus repeated it in the New showing that He is that Bread as the Living Word of God. In other words, the written Word brought to life in Him. As the Word of God satisfies our souls, when we do the Word of God we please God just as Jesus did. God said He was well-pleased with His Son because He only did what the Father spoke. Jesus keeps His spiritual bread coming as long as we hunger and thirst for it. New life comes through the unending supply of His Word supplied by the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.\nJesus, the Bread of life was born in the House of Bread (Bethlehem). His life didn\u2019t start in Bethlehem. He was with the Father and the Spirit at creation before anything was spoken into existence. He is the Word of God in the beginning and the Word of God in the end. Jesus satisfied our spiritual hunger and thirst with His spiritual bread and water that preserves our eternal life. When we come to know Jesus, we embrace the Word of God. He is the embodiment of the Word of God and the Way, the Truth (whole) and the Life. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are never in disagreement. They work together as One with one will and one purpose. When the Body of Christ does the Word, we grow more like the Godhead and walk more in oneness. Sin brings division but walking according to the Word of God brings unity.\nShowbread in the Older Testament\nTo tie the two testaments together, I will use the showbread on the table of fellowship in the tabernacle. God instructed Moses to construct a table in the Holy Place of the tabernacle for the showbread. There were 12 loaves on the table that only the high priest and the priests could eat. Two groups of six \u2013 6 being the number of man. Twelve is the number of Divine Government. The two groups of six represent all of God\u2019s people. This bread was referred to as the bread of the Presence. (see Exodus 25:23-30; Leviticus 24:5-9) This bread was to be before God at all times. The table of Presence and the showbread were a picture of Jesus, the Bread of God\u2019s Presence who is before the presence of God from the beginning, throughout His time on earth and through all eternity.\nThis showbread was to be eaten \u201cby Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in a holy place, because it is a most holy part of their regular share of the offerings made to the Lord by fire.\u201d Leviticus 24:9 The high priest and his sons the priests are the only ones who were to eat this bread. Believers in Jesus, our Great High Priest, are to also eat the bread of the Word for spiritual life. Every Sabbath, the priests would put fresh bread upon the table before the Lord. This bread was dedicated to the Lord making it holy. Then the priests would eat the unfresh bread so none of it would be wasted or fall to the ground because it was holy to the Lord. In like manner we too are to eat the holy Word and dedicate ourselves to the Lord. The twelve loaves of showbread reminded the Israelites that they lived in God\u2019s presence and are to be dedicated to Him. God will give the Body of Christ fresh bread also through revelation knowledge. There is always more we can learn and understand in the Word of God.\nDesire for Eternity\nGod puts the desire for eternity in our hearts. Ecclesiastes 3:11-14: He has set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil \u2013 this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men will revere him. Only God can satisfy our desire for righteousness. He did so in Jesus. On the cross, Jesus made atonement for the sins of the whole world and then imputed His righteousness to us. Jesus satisfied our desire for righteousness and eternal life. The bread that sustained the Israelites during their wilderness journey could not give them eternal life. Jesus, the spiritual Bread sent down from heaven did. Alleluia to the Lord!",

Some countries have specific programs under which activities are carried out on the removal of chemical munitions. In international documents, one can find records about the prevention of pollution of the marine environment by harmful substances, which include dumped chemical ammunition. The review and analysis of national legislation pointed out that in Poland there are no strictly records concerning chemical munitions and how to manage with it when it comes to contact or disposal. The exception is The National Crisis Management Plan and The Manual of conduct in case of entrapping chemical munitions given by Director of the Maritime Authority in Gdynia. Extremely important from the point of view of handling chemical munitions is the creation of unified action plans based on national plans in the event of fishing or dumping of CWA on beaches and the same method of utilization of deposits contaminated with CWA.\nKeywords: national law, crisis management, chemical warfare agent, baltic sea",

        "title": "How Responsible are Killers with Brain Damage? - Scientific American",
        "raw_content": "By Micah Johnson on January 30, 2018\nCharles J. Whitman and his wife Kathleen are shown in these family album photos released by Whitman's father, Charles A. Whitman, Jr. Credit: Getty Images\nCharles Whitman lived a fairly unremarkable life until August 1, 1966, when he murdered 16 people including his wife and mother. What transformed this 25-year-old Eagle Scout and Marine into one of modern America\u2019s first and deadliest school shooters? His autopsy suggests one troubling explanation: Charles Whitman had a brain tumor pressing on his amygdala, a region of the brain crucial for emotion and behavioral control.\nCan murder really be a symptom of brain disease? And if our brains can be hijacked so easily, do we really have free will?\nNeuroscientists are shedding new light on these questions by uncovering how brain lesions can lead to criminal behavior. A recent study contains the first systematic review of 17 known cases where criminal behavior was preceded by the onset of a brain lesion. Is there one brain region consistently involved in cases of criminal behavior? No\u2014the researchers found that the lesions were widely distributed throughout different brain regions. However, all the lesions were part of the same functional network, located on different parts of a single circuit that normally allows neurons throughout the brain to cooperate with each other on specific cognitive tasks. In an era of increasing excitement about mapping the brain\u2019s \u201cconnectome,\u201d this finding fits with our growing understanding of complex brain functions as residing not in discrete brain regions, but in densely connected networks of neurons spread throughout different parts of the brain.\nInterestingly, the \u2018criminality-associated network\u2019 identified by the researchers is closely related to networks previously linked with moral decision making. The network is most closely associated with two specific components of moral psychology: theory of mind and value-based decision making. Theory of mind refers to the capacity to understand other people\u2019s points of view, beliefs, and emotions. This helps you appreciate, for instance, how your actions would make another person scared or hurt. Value-based decision making refers to the ability to judge the value of specific actions or their consequences. This helps you see not only what the outcomes of your actions will be, but whether those actions and outcomes are good or bad. The letters written by Charles Whitman on the eve of his killing spree provide a chilling window into a mind losing the ability to understand good, bad, and other people: \u201cIt was after much thought that I decided to kill my wife, Kathy\u2026I love her dearly, and she has been as fine a wife to me as any man could ever hope to have. I cannot rationally pinpoint any specific reason for doing this.\u201d\nThis research raises troubling questions about Charles Whitman and the other subjects in the study\u2014and for all of us. If their actions were caused by brain damage and a disrupted neural network, were they acting under their own free will? Should they be held morally responsible for their actions and found guilty in a court of law? Should we see them as patients or perpetrators\u2014or both?\nSome scientists have followed cases like Charles Whitman\u2019s down the slippery slope, reaching the most extreme conclusion: that by uncovering the biological causes of behavior, neuroscience shows that \u201cfree will, as we ordinarily understand it, is an illusion\u201d.\nBut these arguments depend on a faulty conception of free will. Free will should not be understood as a mysterious ability to cause actions separate from our brain activity. In fact just the opposite might be true: that free will requires certain connections between our brains and our actions. After all, our brains are the biological basis of our identity, housing our memories, our values, our imagination, our ability to reason\u2014in other words, all the capacities necessary to make choices that are uniquely our own, and to carry out actions according to our own will.\nThis understanding of free will allows us to ask more sophisticated questions about the connection between the brain and criminal behavior when evaluating cases like Charles Whitman\u2019s. Instead of just pointing to the obvious fact that an action had a neural cause (every action does!), we can ask whether a person\u2019s specific neurologic injury impaired the psychological capacities necessary for free will\u2014imagining possible courses of action, weighing relevant reasons, perceiving the moral features of actions and outcomes, making decisions that align with our values, and controlling behavior against competing impulses.\nThe specific components of moral psychology disrupted by lesions in the criminality-associated network may indeed interfere with these abilities: value-based decision making and theory of mind are important for grasping the moral impact of our actions and understanding how they will be experienced by other people. If a person has genuine impairments in these capabilities, then they possess only a diminished form of free will. Future research should evaluate more robustly the degree to which these and other psychological capacities are truly impaired in patients with lesions in this network.\nWhen moving from the question of free will to issues of moral responsibility and legal guilt, it is important to evaluate each case in light of the wide array of factors beyond neurologic injury that influence behavior. Previous research has demonstrated that criminal behavior is impacted by genetics, childhood mistreatment, low self-esteem during adolescence, lack of parental support, social and economic disadvantage, and racial discrimination. Digging deeper into Charles Whitman\u2019s case, we might wonder whether his extraordinarily strict father, or his fascination with guns as early as age 2, contributed to his later violent turn. The lesson is that human behavior is complex and a brain lesion is neither necessary nor sufficient for criminal behavior: after all, there are nearly 700,000 people living with brain tumors in the US and approximately 800,000 people have strokes every year, but the known cases leading to criminal behavior number in the dozens. Further research would be helpful in determining the likelihood that patients who suffer brain lesions in the \u2018criminality-associated network\u2019 actually go on to commit crimes, with the expectation that this kind of impairment will emerge as one of many factors increasing the risk of criminal behavior.\nThe fact that violence can be a symptom of brain disease shows not that free will is an illusion, but that free will can be injured just like other human abilities. These rare cases of dysfunction allow us to see more clearly that our healthy brains endow us with remarkable capacities to imagine, reason, and act freely.\nMicah Johnson is an MD candidate at Harvard Medical School with interests in ethics and health policy.

We\u2019ve made several incursions into the Trossachs during our different tours in the country and in 2007 we drove along Loch Katrine up to its end, discovering on our way breathtaking landscapes on a very sunny day. On the shore of this beautiful loch, we found a blue board giving us information about the history of the place.\nScotiana.com 2007\nLoch Katrine was made famous by the exploits of real-life Rob Roy MacGregor, whom Sir Walter Scott romanticised as his Highland hero.\nFor hundreds of years this land belonged to MacGregors, the Children of the Mist. Rob Roy MacGregor \u2013 clan leader, dispossessed landowner, cattle trader and rustler \u2013 was born nearby in Glen Gyle, at the head of the Loch.\nTradition has it that Rob Roy MacGregor sought to revenge the cruel attack on his wife and the loss of his home at Craigrostan at the hands of the Duke of Montrose\u2019s men.\nHe stole rent collected by the Duke\u2019s evil factor and kinsman, Graham of Killearn, and carried him off to the island, now known as Factor\u2019s Island. Rob forced the factor to write to the Duke demanding compensation for burning Craigrostan, but he let him go unharmed. Killing the factor would only have added to Rob\u2019s problems!\nSo, we were driving on Rob Roy\u2019s territory ! What better guide to visit the country than the Scottish Robin Hood! But let us try to know more about our invisible fellow traveller.\nNo doubt that Rob Roy is a venerated figure in Scotland ! Suffice it to say that crowds of visitors go to see his grave at Balquhidder and his birth place at Glen Gyle. Monuments have been erected here and there in the country and there are entire rooms dedicated to his memory in Scottish museums.\nRob Roy statue Peterculter Scotiana 2007\nOne day, while we were driving across the bridge of Culter Burn, at Peterculter, in Aberdeenshire, we suddenly noticed, in the distance, a very colourful statue standing out in the greenness of a dense vegetation, on the ledge of a cliff overhanging a roaring torrent. We immediately stopped the car to take photos! Could it be a statue of Rob Roy?\nRob Roy statue Peterculter Scotiana.com 2007\nWhat we could see, with a close-up of our camera, was the painted statue of a strong man clad in highland dress and armed with a long sword and a round shield covered with brass studs. Judging by the spike sticking out of it that kind of shield must have been as offensive than defensive. After them!\nMacGregor tartan (Vestiarium Scoticum) Source : Wikipedia\nThe vivid colours suggested that the statue had just been painted and though we\u2019re not expert in the subject, the tartan worn by the statue appeared to be that of the MacGregor clan. Interestingly enough, I\u2019ve seen other pictures of this statue since, and on them Rob Roy seems to be wearing different colours. But we know there can be many variations in the colours of a clan tartan. I\u2019ve also learned that the Peter Culter statue of Rob Roy had been erected to commemorate his flight from Aberdeen in the early 18th century after he had visited some relatives of him to gain support for the Jacobite cause.\nFrederick, Warne & Co edition\nMuch of what I\u2019ve learned about Rob Roy, apart from the usual web sources and Walter Scott\u2019s novel Rob Roy, I\u2019ve got it from this old beautiful edition of a book I have in my library and which was written by Francis Watt and Andrew Carter, two English reverends who had travelled all over Scotland. It\u2019s good to begin with such attractive reading before immersing in more austere books of history.\nFrederick Warne & Co edition Frontispice illustration\nPicturesque Scotland illustration\nRob Roy\u2019s real name was Robert MacGregor. He got his nickname when he was young, because of his red hair. When the name of MacGregor was outlawed, in 1694, he adopted his mother\u2019s name of Campbell but finally he arranged to have the words \u201cMacGregor despite them\u201d engraved on his tombstone, in Balquhidder.\nRob Roy was born in 1671 at Glen Gyle. In 1693, he married Helen Mary of Comar, a member of the MacGregor clan, and first lived with his family at Portnellan, on the north side of Loch Katrine.\nAfter a tumultuous life as an outlaw, he was finally rehabilitated and died peacefully in Balquhidder, in December 1734, at the age of 63.\nHe was immortalised in Sir Walter Scott\u2019s novel Rob Roy, published in 1818. I\u2019ve begun to read this book, all the more interested by the story that it begins in Bordeaux.\nWalter Scott Rob Roy Folio edition 2001\nAmong several editions of the book which can be found in my library I\u2019m particularly fond of the illustrated Folio 2001 edition.\nFor those who aren\u2019t against a romanticized version of history I would mention the film by Michael Caton-Jones with Liam Neeson and Jessica Lange (2001).\nRob Roy Michael Caton-Jones 2001\nHere\u2019s an extract of the film.\nAnd I will end this post by encouraging people who like walking to embark on one of the most interesting thematic trails organized in Scotland, the Rob Roy Way\u2026\nHave a good walk, virtual or not !\nNovember 15th, 2009 |Category: History\n2 comments to On the banks of Loch Katrine with Rob Roy MacGregor\nI have an American friend who had a strange experience while on the sir Walter Scott at loch Katrine, he is now trying to find out if anything horrible happened on the south side of the loch midway between the start of the cruise and the cafe ne\u2019er the top of the loch. His name is Mark Hamilton from Alabama .hope you could maybe point me in the right direction to find out more for my friend, thanks John Adam..\nSir Kevin Parr Baronet.\nRob Roy or any other Scottish clan dressed like that statue displays. The tartan plaid was a long piece that started on the shoulder under the legs and privates and brought around the back to fasten on the other shoulder with great metal badge of clan. Not a wee dress as seen. No shirt until the 18th century as men had to be men before that. Sir Walter Scott always left a dish of food on his table at his house called Abottsford on the Scottish border. He died bankrupt have spent so much on this house. Rob Roy Scott always said had visited him and so the plate of food was left out in case he ever returned. Rob Roy McGregor died long before Scott bought that house so what the writer did was really in the mind",

A revenue ton is a short ton (two thousand pounds) and is computed by using a standard weight of one hundred ninety pounds a passenger (including free baggage) multiplied by the number of passengers loaded and unloaded plus the tons of airmail, express, and freight loaded and unloaded within and without this State.\n(6) Shipping lines. Where the income is derived principally from the operation of a shipping line, the corporation shall apportion its net apportionable income to South Carolina on the basis of the ratio of revenue tons loaded and unloaded within and without the State for such year. A revenue ton is a short ton (two thousand pounds) and must be computed using a standard weight of one hundred ninety pounds per passenger (including free baggage) multiplied by the number of passengers loaded and unloaded.\nSECTION 12-6-2320.

The taxpayer has seven years from the date it makes the notification provided for in subitem (b) of this item to make the required investment and create the required number of jobs;\n(4) The taxpayer may begin operating under the agreement beginning with the tax year in which the agreement is executed. If the taxpayer fails to meet the requirements of subitem (3)(a)(ii), the department may assess any tax due as a result of the taxpayer's failure to meet the requirements of subitem (3)(a)(ii). For any subsequent year that the taxpayer fails to maintain three thousand eight hundred full-time new jobs, then the department may assess any tax due for that year.\n(C) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, a taxpayer who is constructing or operating a qualified recycling facility as defined in Section 12-6-3460 may petition the department for the use of separate accounting with respect to all or any part of the taxpayer's or taxpayer's subsidiaries' business activities or for the use of any other method to determine the taxpayer's or taxpayer's subsidiaries' taxable income.

After the above ten consecutive taxable years, the taxpayer is no longer eligible for the credit.\n(C) A taxpayer claiming the credit shall maintain evidence of work performed for the contract by the subcontractor.\nHISTORY: 1995 Act No. 76, Section 1; 2006 Act No. 376, Section 62, eff June 13, 2006; 2006 Act No. 386, Section 6.A, eff June 14, 2006 applicable to tax years beginning after December 31, 2006.\nSECTION 12-6-3360. Job tax credit.\n(A) Taxpayers that operate manufacturing, tourism, processing, agricultural packaging, warehousing, distribution, research and development, corporate office, qualifying service-related facilities, agribusiness operations, extraordinary retail establishment, and qualifying technology intensive facilities, and banks as defined pursuant to this title are allowed an annual jobs tax credit as provided in this section. In addition, taxpayers that operate retail facilities and service-related industries qualify for an annual jobs tax credit in counties designated as \"Tier IV\". As used in this section, \"corporate office\" includes general contractors licensed by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation. Credits pursuant to this section may be claimed against income taxes imposed by Section 12-6-510 or 12-6-530, bank taxes imposed pursuant to Chapter 11 of this title, and insurance premium taxes imposed pursuant to Chapter 7, Title 38, and are limited in use to fifty percent of the taxpayer's South Carolina income tax, bank tax, or insurance premium tax liability. In computing a tax payable by a taxpayer pursuant to Section 38-7-90, the credit allowable pursuant to this section must be treated as a premium tax paid pursuant to Section 38-7-20.\n(B) The department shall rank and designate the state's counties by December thirty-first each year using data from the South Carolina Department of Employment and Workplace and the United States Department of Commerce. The county designations are effective for taxable years that begin in the following calendar year. The counties are ranked using the last three completed calendar years of per capita income data and the last thirty-six months of unemployment rate data that are available on November first, with equal weight given to unemployment rate and per capita income as follows:\n(1) The twelve counties with a combination of the highest unemployment rate and lowest per capita income are designated \"Tier IV\" counties. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no more than twelve counties may be designated or classified as \"Tier IV\" and notwithstanding any other provision of this section, a county may be designated as \"Tier IV\" only by virtue of the criteria provided in this item.\n(2) The twelve counties with a combination of the next highest unemployment rate and next lowest per capita income are designated \"Tier III\" counties.\n(3) The eleven counties with a combination of the next highest unemployment rate and the next lowest per capita income are designated \"Tier II\" counties.\n(4) The eleven counties with a combination of the lowest unemployment rate and the highest per capita income are designated \"Tier I\" counties.\n(C)(1) Subject to the conditions provided in subsection (M) of this section, a job tax credit is allowed for five years beginning in year two after the creation of the job for each new full-time job created if the minimum level of new jobs is maintained. The credit is available to taxpayers that increase employment by ten or more full-time jobs, and no credit is allowed for the year or any subsequent year in which the net employment increase falls below the minimum level of ten. The amount of the initial job credit is as follows:\n(a) Eight thousand dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier IV\" counties.\n(b) Four thousand two hundred fifty dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier III\" counties.\n(c) Two thousand seven hundred fifty dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier II\" counties.\n(d) One thousand five hundred dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier I\" counties.\n(2)(a) Subject to the conditions provided in subsection (M) of this section, a job tax credit is allowed for five years beginning in year two after the creation of the job for each new full-time job created if the minimum level of new jobs is maintained. The credit is available to taxpayers with ninety-nine or fewer employees that increase employment by two or more full-time jobs, and may be received only if the gross wages of the full-time jobs created pursuant to this section amount to a minimum of one hundred twenty percent of the county's or state's average per capita income, whichever is lower. No credit is allowed for the year or any subsequent year in which the net employment increase falls below the minimum level of two. The amount of the initial job credit is as described in subsection (C)(1).\n(b) If the taxpayer with ninety-nine or fewer employees increases employment by two or more full-time jobs but the gross wages do not amount to a minimum one hundred twenty percent of the county's or state's average per capita income, whichever is lower, then the amount of the initial job credit is as follows:\n(i) Four thousand dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier IV\" counties.\n(ii) Two thousand one hundred twenty-five dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier III\" counties.\n(iii) One thousand three hundred seventy-five dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier II\" counties.\n(iv) Seven hundred fifty dollars for each new full-time job created in \"Tier I\" counties.\n(D) If the taxpayer qualifying for the new jobs credit under subsection (C) creates additional new full-time jobs in years two through six, the taxpayer may obtain a credit for those new jobs for five years following the year in which the job is created. The amount of the credit for each new full-time job is the same as provided in subsection (C).\n(E)(1) Taxpayers which qualify for the job tax credit provided in subsection (C) and which are located in a business or industrial park jointly established and developed by a group of counties pursuant to Section 13 of Article VIII of the Constitution of this State are allowed an additional one thousand dollar credit for each new full-time job created. This additional credit is permitted for five years beginning in the taxable year following the creation of the job.\n(2) Taxpayers which otherwise qualify for the job tax credit provided in subsection (C) and which are located and the qualifying jobs are located on property where a response action has been completed pursuant to a nonresponsible party voluntary cleanup contract pursuant to Article 7, Chapter 56, Title 44, the Brownfields Voluntary Cleanup Program, are allowed an additional one thousand dollar credit for each new full-time job created. This additional credit is permitted for five years beginning in the taxable year following the creation of the job. No credit under this item is allowed a taxpayer that is a \"responsible party\" as defined in that article.\n(F)(1) The number of new and additional new full-time jobs is determined by comparing the monthly average number of full-time employees subject to South Carolina income tax withholding in the applicable county for the taxable year with the monthly average in the prior taxable year. For purposes of calculating the monthly average number of full-time employees in the first year of operation in this State, a taxpayer may use the actual months in operation or a full twelve-month period. If a taxpayer's business is in operation for less than twelve months a year, the number of new and additional new full-time jobs is determined using the monthly average for the months the business is in operation.\n(2)(a) A taxpayer who makes a capital investment of at least fifty million dollars at a single site within a three-year period may elect to have the number of new and additional new full-time jobs determined by comparing the monthly average number of full-time jobs subject to South Carolina income tax withholding at the site for the taxable year with the monthly average for the prior taxable year.\n(b) For purposes of this item, \"single site\" means a stand-alone building whether or not several stand-alone buildings are located in one geographical location.\n(c) The calculation of new and additional jobs provided for in this item is allowed for only a five-year period commencing in the year in which the fifty million dollars of capital investment is completed.\n(d) For purposes of this subsection a \"new job\" does not include a job transferred from one site to another site by the taxpayer or a related person. A related person includes any entity or person that bears a relationship to the taxpayer as set forth in Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code.\n(G) Except for credits carried forward under subsection (H), the credits available under this section are only allowed for the job level that is maintained in the taxable year that the credit is claimed. If the job level for which a credit was claimed decreases, the five-year period for eligibility for the credit continues to run.\n(H) A credit claimed pursuant to this section but not used in a taxable year may be carried forward for fifteen years from the taxable year in which the credit is earned by the taxpayer. Credits that are carried forward must be used in the order earned and before jobs credits claimed in the current year. A taxpayer who earns credits allowed by this section and who also is eligible for the moratorium provided in Section 12-6-3367 may claim the credits and may carry forward unused credits beginning after the moratorium period expires.\n(I) The merger, consolidation, or reorganization of a taxpayer, where tax attributes survive, does not create new eligibility in a succeeding taxpayer, but unused job tax credits may be transferred and continued by the succeeding taxpayer subject to the limitations of Section 12-6-3320. In addition, a taxpayer may assign its rights to its jobs tax credit to another taxpayer if it transfers all or substantially all of the assets of the taxpayer or all or substantially all of the assets of a trade or business or operating division of a taxpayer related to the generation of the jobs tax credits to that taxpayer if the required number of new jobs is maintained for that amount of credit. A taxpayer is not allowed a jobs tax credit if the net employment increase for that taxpayer falls below two. The appropriate agency shall determine if qualifying net increases or decreases have occurred and may require reports, adopt rules or promulgate regulations, and hold hearings needed for substantiation and qualification.\n(J) For a taxpayer which plans a significant expansion in its labor forces at a location in this State, the appropriate agency shall prescribe certification procedures to ensure that the taxpayer can claim credits in future years even if a particular county is removed from the list of \"Tier IV\", \"Tier III\", or \"Tier II\" counties.\n(K)(1) An \"S\" corporation, limited liability company taxed as a partnership, or partnership that qualifies for a credit under this section may pass through the credit earned to each shareholder of the \"S\" corporation, partner of the partnership, or member of the limited liability company. For purposes of this subsection, limited liability company means a limited liability company taxed as a partnership.\n(2)(a) The amount of the credit allowed a shareholder, partner, or member by this subsection is equal to the shareholder's percentage of stock ownership, partner's interest in the partnership, or member's interest in the limited liability company for the taxable year multiplied by the amount of the credit earned by the entity. This nonrefundable credit is allowed against taxes due under Section 12-6-510 or 12-6-530 and bank taxes imposed pursuant to Chapter 11 of this title and may not exceed fifty percent of the shareholder's, partner's, or member's tax liability under Section 12-6-510 or 12-6-530 or bank tax liability imposed pursuant to Chapter 11 of this title.\n(b) Notwithstanding subitem (a), the credit earned pursuant to this section by an \"S\" corporation owing corporate level income tax must be used first at the entity level. Only the remaining credit passes through to each shareholder.\n(3) A credit claimed pursuant to this subsection but not used in a taxable year may be carried forward by each shareholder, partner, or member for fifteen years from the close of the tax year in which the credit is earned by the \"S\" corporation, partnership, or limited liability company. The entity earning the credit may not carry over credit that passes through to its shareholders, partners, or members.\n(M) As used in this section:\n(1) \"Taxpayer\" means a sole proprietor, partnership, corporation of any classification, limited liability company, or association taxable as a business entity that is subject to South Carolina taxes as contained in Section 12-6-510, Section 12-6-530, Chapter 11, Title 12, or Chapter 7, Title 38.\n(2) \"Appropriate agency\" means the Department of Revenue, except that for taxpayers subject to the premium tax imposed by Chapter 7, Title 38, it means the Department of Insurance.\n(3) \"New job\" means a job created in this State at the time a new facility or an expansion is initially staffed. Except as otherwise provided in this item, the term does not include a job created when an employee is shifted from an existing location in this State to a new or expanded facility whether the transferred job is from, or to, a facility of the taxpayer or a related person. A related person includes any entity or person that bears a relationship to the taxpayer as described in Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, this exclusion of a new job created by employee shifting does not extend to a job created at a new or expanded facility located in a county in which is located an \"applicable federal facility\" as defined in Section 12-6-3450(A)(1)(b). The term \"new job\" also includes an existing job at a facility of an employer which is reinstated after the employer has rebuilt the facility due to:\n(a) its destruction by accidental fire, natural disaster, or act of God;\n(b) involuntary conversion as a result of condemnation or exercise of eminent domain by the State or any of its political subdivisions or by the federal government.\nDestruction for purposes of this provision means that more than fifty percent of the facility was destroyed. For purposes of this section, involuntary conversion as a result of condemnation or exercise of eminent domain includes a legally binding agreement for the purchase of a facility of an employer entered into between an employer and the State of South Carolina or a political subdivision of the State under threat of exercise of eminent domain by the State or its political subdivision.\nThe year of reinstatement is the year of creation of the job. All reinstated jobs qualify for the credit pursuant to this section, and a comparison is not required to be made between the number of full-time jobs of the employer in the taxable year and the number of full-time jobs of the employer with the corresponding period of the prior taxable year.\n(4) \"Full-time\" means a job requiring a minimum of thirty-five hours of an employee's time a week for the entire normal year of company operations or a job requiring a minimum of thirty-five hours of an employee's time for a week for a year in which the employee was hired initially for or transferred to the South Carolina facility. For the purposes of this section, two half-time jobs are considered one full-time job. A \"half-time job\" is a job requiring a minimum of twenty hours of an employee's time a week for the entire normal year of the company's operations or a job requiring a minimum of twenty hours of an employee's time a week for a year in which the employee was hired initially for or transferred to the South Carolina facility. For agricultural packaging and agribusiness operations, seasonal workers may be considered a full-time employee; however, a seasonal employee only counts as a fraction of a full-time worker, with the numerator being the number of hours worked a week multiplied by the number of weeks worked, and the denominator being the number one thousand eight hundred twenty.\n(5) \"Manufacturing facility\" means an establishment where tangible personal property is produced or assembled.\n(6) \"Processing facility\" means an establishment that prepares, treats, or converts tangible personal property into finished goods or another form of tangible personal property. The term includes a business engaged in processing agricultural, aquacultural, or maricultural products and specifically includes meat, poultry, and any other variety of food processing operations.

Retail sales made inside the facility to employees working at the facility are not considered for purposes of the twelve-day and seventy-five percent limitation. For purposes of this definition, \"retail sale\" and \"tangible personal property\" have the meaning provided in Chapter 36 of this title.\n(9) \"Research and development facility\" means an establishment engaged in laboratory, scientific, or experimental testing and development related to new products, new uses for existing products, or improving existing products. The term does not include an establishment engaged in efficiency surveys, management studies, consumer surveys, economic surveys, advertising, promotion, banking, or research in connection with literary, historical, or similar projects.\n(10) \"Corporate office facility\" means a corporate headquarters that meets the definition of a \"corporate headquarters\" contained in Section 12-6-3410(J)(1). The corporate headquarters of a general contractor licensed by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation qualifies even if it is not a regional or national headquarters as those terms are defined in Section 12-6-3410(J)(1).\n(11) The terms \"retail sales\" and \"tangible personal property\" for purposes of this section are defined in Chapter 36 of this title.\n(12) \"Tourism facility\" means an establishment used for a theme park; amusement park; historical, educational, or trade museum; botanical garden; cultural center; theater; motion picture production studio; convention center; arena; auditorium; or a spectator or participatory sports facility; and similar establishments where entertainment, education, or recreation is provided to the general public. Tourism facility also includes new hotel and motel construction, except that to qualify for the credits allowed by this section and regardless of the county in which the facility is located, the number of new jobs that must be created by the new hotel or motel is twenty or more. It does not include that portion of an establishment where retail merchandise or retail services are sold directly to retail customers.\n(13) \"Qualifying service-related facility\" means:\n(a) an establishment engaged in an activity or activities listed under the North American Industry Classification System Manual (NAICS) Section 62, subsectors 621, 622, and 623, or Sector 4881, subsector 488190; or\n(b) a business, other than a business engaged in legal, accounting, banking, or investment services (including a business identified under NAICS Section 55) or retail sales, which has a net increase of at least:\n(i) one hundred seventy-five jobs at a single location;\n(ii) one hundred fifty jobs at a single location comprised of a building or portion of building that has been vacant for at least twelve consecutive months prior to the taxpayer's investment;\n(iii) one hundred jobs at a single location and the jobs have an average cash compensation level of more than one and one-half times the lower of state per capita income or per capita income in the county where the jobs are located;\n(iv) fifty jobs at a single location and the jobs have an average cash compensation level of more than twice the lower of state per capita income or per capita income in the county where the jobs are located; or\n(v) twenty-five jobs at a single location and the jobs have an average cash compensation level of more than two and one-half times the lower of state per capita income or per capita income in the county where the jobs are located.\nA taxpayer shall use the most recent per capita income data available as of the end of the taxable year in which the jobs are filled. Determination of the required number of jobs is in accordance with the monthly average described in subsection (F).\n(14) \"Technology intensive facility\" means:\n(a) a facility at which a firm engages in the design, development, and introduction of new products or innovative manufacturing processes, or both, through the systematic application of scientific and technical knowledge.

If the amount of the credit exceeds the taxpayer's tax liability under this chapter for the taxable year, or if it exceeds the maximum credit that may be used in any particular taxable year as provided in subsection (C)(2), the excess credit may be carried forward to succeeding taxable years until all the credit is claimed. In addition to the carry forward of unused credit, unused credit may be transferred, devised, or distributed, with or without consideration, by an individual, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, trust, or estate. To be effectual, such a transfer, devise, or distribution requires written notification to and approval by the department with the unused credit maintaining all its original attributes in the hands of the recipient. With regard to the sale or exchange of a credit allowed under this section, general income tax principles apply for purposes of the state income tax. In the hands of the original donor of a qualified conservation contribution of a qualified real property interest, or of a gift of land for conservation, and of any subsequent transferee, devisee, or distributee, the credit allowed by this section that may be used to offset state income tax liability in any one taxable year is limited to an amount that, when combined with all other state income tax credits of the taxpayer, does not exceed the taxpayer's total state income tax liability for the taxable year.

For the purpose of calculating the per acre tax credit cap of this subsection, all upland and wetland acreage subject to the qualified conservation contribution shall be taken into account, except for property lying within the intertidal zone. All other wetland acreage subject to the qualified conservation contribution including, but not limited to, ponds, wetland impoundments, hardwood bottomlands, and Carolina Bays shall be taken into account when calculating the two hundred fifty dollar per acre tax credit cap.\n(2) Regardless of the amount of the credit allowed by this section, the total credit a taxpayer may use under this section for any particular taxable year may not exceed fifty-two thousand five hundred dollars.\n(3) For purposes of applying the per acre limitation and per taxpayer limitation on the credit allowed by this section, the attribution rules of Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code apply.\n(D) The South Carolina Department of Revenue shall report to the Governor, the House Ways and Means Committee, and Senate Finance Committee the activity generated on taxable year 2001 and 2002 state income tax returns by the credit allowed by this item.\nHISTORY: 2000 Act No. 283, Section 1(C), eff June 1, 2001; 2005 Act No. 145, Section 43.B, eff June 7, 2005; 2006 Act No. 386, Section 43, eff June 14, 2006.\n2000 Act No. 283, Section 1.A, provides as follows:\n\"This section may be cited as the 'South Carolina Conservation Incentives Act'.\"\nSECTION 12-6-3520.

What does the fashion icon have to say about aging?\nDesigner Diane von Furstenberg is used to creating fashion that catches your attention, but a new exhibit and interview in Harper\u2019s Bazaar puts the focus squarely on her.\nA new exhibit at the Pace Gallery in Beijing \u2014 Diane von Furstenberg: Journey of a Dress \u2013 chronicles von Furstenberg\u2019s evolution over the last four decades, featuring portraits of her by iconic artists as Andy Warhol, Francesco Clemente, and Helmut Newton along with newly commissioned pieces by Chinese artists Zhang Huan, Li Songsong, Yi Zhou and Hai Bo.\nShe\u2019s also featured in a new intimate interview conducted by iconic photographer Chuck Close.\n\u201cThe show is called Journey of a Dress because it turns out I have one dress [the wrap dress] that has lived for almost 40 years, and that\u2019s pretty amazing,\u201d von Furstenberg said. \u201cSo it\u2019s four decades of my work, my life, and the people who photographed me and painted me and this and that. You see the decades, and you understand that they happened in a world that was so entirely different than China, so that\u2019s why it\u2019s interesting.\u201d\nClose manages to get von Furstenberg to dish on plastic surgery and aging in an industry so focused on looks.\n\u201cI\u2019ve always liked wrinkles,\u201d she said of her adversion to plastic surgery. \u201cWhen I was a young girl, I used to make lines on my face with my nails because I loved Jeanne Moreau. I always wanted to be older; I always added years to my life. For the longest time, if people thought I was older I would take it as a compliment.\u201d\nClose agreed with her views.\n\u201cFor me, imperfections and wrinkles give you character. They\u2019re the road map of your life. If you\u2019ve laughed your whole life, you have laugh lines. If you\u2019ve frowned your whole life, you have furrows on your brow,\u201d he said. \u201cAll the stuff that people want to hide is exactly what needs to be there for a portrait, as far as I\u2019m concerned. I love the stuff that people hate, all stuff that people airbrush out or Photoshop out.\u201d\nWe love that von Furstenberg isn\u2019t afraid to let her wrinkles show \u2013 and she\u2019s walking the walk with that up-close-and-personal photo.\nImage: Chuck Close, courtesy The Pace Gallery\nProject Runway does Diane von Furstenberg in high style\nDiane von Furstenberg crinkle chiffon dress\ncelebrity style diane von furstenberg harpar's bazaar",

        "raw_content": "Shell launches robot to work in hostile environments\nSensabot, the first resident mobile robot certified to work in difficult and hostile environments, has been launched by Shell.\nThe Sensabot system is the culmination of seven years of work with leading robotics experts from across the world, including Carnegie Mellon University in the USA, the UK\u2019s Soil Machine Dynamics (SMD) and Improvia in the Netherlands.\n\u201cSensabot enables colleagues to do their jobs at a safe distance, while also lowering the costs of day-to-day operations,\u201d said Alisa Choong, Executive Vice President responsible for Digital Technologies at Shell. \u201cSensabot represents the strong ambition of Shell to lead in safety-enhancing technology, especially in exceptional environmental and operational situations.\u201d\nThe robot will work in remote or unmanned oil and gas facilities and is designed to work for six months without requiring maintenance. Operators will be able to use Sensabot as their eyes and ears on the ground to check equipment and respond to alerts faster whilst gathering accurate real time data.\nTo enable a smooth integration of Sensabot into operating assets, the robot comes with an innovative rapid-deployment container and powerful private 4G-LTE system that could provide connectivity to up to 5000 devices including industrial smartphones, -tablets, people-and material-tracking and condition monitoring equipment. In industrial locations the 4G LTE is cheaper and provides more reliable coverage than other types of industrial wireless networks.\nWhile the Sensabot platform is currently equipped for surveillance of oil and gas facilities, different manipulator arms enable it to be adapted for use by emergency services, or for maintenance purposes. Shell is seeking commercial partners to adapt Sensabot for other specialist functionalities.\nSensabot will undergo final testing at Shell\u2019s Pernis complex in the Netherlands before being available for deployment at several of the company\u2019s operated and non-operated ventures. These could include facilities in remote harsh environments, as well as in specific roles in refineries, chemical plants, and LNG terminals.\nDigital technology plays an important role for Shell in adding value through increased productivity and lower capital and operating costs. We are actively working on a range of digital technologies including robotics, 3D printing, cloud computing and advanced analytics.\nFurther information on Shell\u2019s Digitalisation activities.\nThe IECEx Zone 1 Environments: \u201cA place in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture with air of dangerous substances in the form of gas, vapour or mist is likely to occur in normal operation occasionally.\u201d http://www.hse.gov.uk/fireandexplosion/zoning.pdf\nAlisa Choong will be speaking at the FT Digital Energy Summit on September 13, 2016 #FTDigEnergy https://live.ft.com/Events/2016/FT-Digital-Energy-Summit\nAbout SMD - https://smd.co.uk/\nAbout UL http://www.ul.com/\nAbout Carnegie Mellon University \u2013 National Robotics Engineering Centre - http://www.nrec.ri.cmu.edu/\nThe companies in which Royal Dutch Shell plc directly and indirectly owns investments are separate entities.

It was originally populated by German immigrants. The northern part of the area later was called Northside while the southern area is called South Cumminsville. The area grew through the 1920s with shops, businesses and manufacturing. Knowlton\u2019s Corner was one of the busiest commercial areas in Cincinnati. Following WWII, with the grow of automobiles and highways, the demand for housing in the area waned. By the 1960s, most industry in the area had left.\nThe South Cumminsville Community Council (SCCC) is active in working on neighborhood improvements. The South Cumminsville United For Better Housing (SCUBFH) works on building up homeownership in the neighborhood. One finds older home built in the early 1900s in this neighborhood.\nThis community has easy access to Interstate 75 for north and south travel and I-74 for travel westward. It is located 8 minutes from downtown Cincinnati. Close-by connections to Ronald Reagan Highway, I-71, and I-275 make traveling throughout Cincinnati a 15-minute drive. Cincinnati\u2019s bus service is available in the area.\nCincinnati\u2019s area hospitals, including Bethesda North, Christ, Good Samaritan, Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center and University hospitals are all within 10 to 15 minutes by car.\nCumminsville has a few local shops and restaurants. Nearby Northside has many local businesses, shops and restaurants as well. Downtown is an 8-minute drive to shops, entertainment, restaurants and sporting venues including the Cincinnati Reds and Bengals. Tri County Mall and Kenwood Towne Centre are both a 15-minute drive, offering hundreds of national brand stores.\nWayne Playground, Parker Woods and Jacob Hoffner Park are nearby. Mt.

Palo Alto CA US\nAssignee: NEST LABS, INC.\nThis patent application discloses systems and methods for predicting and/or detecting occupancy of an enclosure, such as a dwelling or other building. Using an occupancy prediction engine in conjunction with data received from at least occupancy sensor installed in a dwelling, the present invention is able to perform a number of applications.\nFor example, applications that can benefit from accurate occupancy prediction include heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting management, hot water heating and management, security, emergency response, and the management and charging of rechargeable batteries (e.g. for electric vehicles).\nIn general, applications that greatly benefit from occupancy prediction are those that particularly benefit from knowing or accurately estimating, in advance, when the structure will be occupied. The lead-time of the prediction will especially aid applications that have an inherent lag-time to reach a certain state. For example, heating and cooling a structure to an acceptable level has an associated lag time of several minutes to more than one hour.\nTherefore it is beneficial to accurately predict ahead of time, when an occupant or occupants will be entering and/or leaving structure. Additionally, energy savings can be obtained due to predicting and/or detecting occupancy for both short term, such as intraday periods and long term, such as multi-day vacation periods, when the structure can remain unconditioned or more economically conditioned.\nWhat is Claimed to be the Invention\nNote: this application is still pending, and the scope of the patent protection granted, if any, may change during patent examination.\nA system for predicting occupancy of an enclosure comprising:\na model of occupancy patterns based in part on information regarding the enclosure and/or the expected occupants of the enclosure;\na sensor configured to detect occupancy within the enclosure; and\nan occupancy predictor configured to predict future occupancy of the enclosure based at least in part on the model and the occupancy detected by the sensor.\nA method for predicting occupancy of an enclosure comprising:\nreceiving a model of occupancy patterns based in part on information regarding the enclosure and/or the expected occupants of the enclosure;\nreceiving occupancy data from a sensor configured to detect occupancy within the enclosure, the occupancy data being indicative of the occupancy detected by the sensor; and\npredicting, by a computing device, future occupancy of the enclosure based at least in part on the model and the occupancy data.\nThe systems can include a prior (a priori) stochastic model of human occupancy, thermal comfort and activity patterns, based in part on information pertaining to the type, dimensions, layout and/or the expected average number of occupants of the structure (whether a home or other type of structure) and on the calendar (time of year, day of week, time of day), and also based on prevailing and forecast local weather conditions.\nSuch a stochastic model can have multiple parameters, which can be initially estimated from a questionnaire filled by residents and/or from accumulated statistical data for structures of type and usage, and occupant characteristics (i.e. according to household type) similar to the structure in question.\nOver time, the parameters of the a priori stochastic occupancy, comfort, activity model, can be further trained using cumulative logs of sensor data acquired within the actual structure in question. For example, if the a priori model predicts the absence of occupants on Wednesdays during daytime, but occupancy sensors sense human presence on Wednesdays consistently for several weeks, the a priori behavior model can be corrected for this information.\nAs used herein the term \u201csensor\u201d refers generally to a device or system that measures and/or registers a substance, physical phenomenon and/or physical quantity. The sensor may convert a measurement into a signal, which can be interpreted by an observer, instrument and/or system. A sensor can be implemented as a special purpose device and/or can be implemented as software running on a general-purpose computer system.\nKnown methods for electronic occupancy detection include acoustical detection and optical detection (including infrared light, visible, laser and radar technology). Motion detectors can process motion-sensor data, or employ cameras connected to a computer which stores and manages captured images to be viewed and analyzed later or viewed over a computer network. Examples of motion detection and sensing applications are (a) detection of unauthorized entry, (b) detection of cessation of occupancy of an area to extinguish lighting and (c) detection of a moving object which triggers a camera to record subsequent events. A motion sensor/detector is thus important for electronic security systems, as well as preventing the wasteful illumination of unoccupied space.\nThe occupancy prediction can be used in the actuation and/or control of an HVAC system for the enclosure or various other applications such as: home automation, home security, lighting control, and/or the charging of rechargeable batteries.\nJanuary 21, 2015 /by Yuri Eliezer Esq.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Nest-Occupancy-Patent.png 1005 1938 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2015-01-21 16:05:182018-09-24 03:18:41Nest Patent - Occupancy Pattern Detection, Estimation and Prediction\nAnyone who has ever thought of sledding as an activity reserved only for children has clearly never seen this trendy winter accessory.

In the early 90s and 2000s, he submitted a series of different patents relating to the way we use the internet in terms of search and communication. As originally covered in qz, his ideas predate many of the apps we are so familiar with today.\nIn 1997, Musk filed for a patent that is comparable to various communication applications such as FaceTime, Google Hangouts, and Skype. The patent describes giving computers the ability to place calls online as users came across various phone numbers. The user could click on a company contact and get connected via a call center, similar to what happens when you tap on a phone number from your smart phone today.\nIn 1998, Musk submitted another patent in which the main purpose was to increase the speed of geographic searches. The goal was to create an automatic search process that would widen the area of your search until the appropriate amount of results were found. This would allow you to find the closest businesses in your area, without having to do multiple searches. This is exactly the process that Google currently uses for location-specific searches.\nIn 1999, Musk filed two patents (1)(2), for a directory service that would consist of a single database that would hold information about a particular business, as well as directions and contact information for its location(s). This idea is reminiscent of what Yelp and Google Places provide. The applications also suggest the functionality of the tool could be extended to various other categories.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/calling-from-the-web.jpeg 561 1024 Andrei Tsygankov Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Andrei Tsygankov Esq.2014-12-18 17:49:202018-10-07 20:10:46Elon Musk's Early Patents before Tesla\nFour Ways to Protect Your Intellectual Property\nThe success of a business can largely depend on the protection of its intellectual property. With the overwhelming amount of protection options, it can be hard to know what method is the best for your specific need. This infographic illustrates the four ways you can protect your intellectual property as well as the benefits for each.\nThe first method of coverage is a patent which is categorized into three types: utility, design, and plant. Each type of patent varies in terms of the type of intellectual property it protects, and the amount of time the patent protection lasts. The next method is a trademark. Trademarks provide protection for a word, phrase, symbol, design, color, and even the layout of a store. The third method is a copyright which delivers coverage for works that are fixed in a palpable medium. This usually includes music, video, books, and other similar material. The final available method is a trade secret which protects information with independent economic value. This includes works such as blueprints, chemical formulas, research and development, and marketing strategies.\nEach form of intellectual property is unique, and it is important to analyze the benefits of each form of security to make the best decision for your needs. It can also be helpful to consult a patent attorney to make sure you have considered all of your options.\nYou can find our other infographic on Entrepreneur.com\nDecember 4, 2014 /by Andrei Tsygankov Esq.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Four-Ways-to-Protect-your-Intellectual-Property.jpg 2048 378 Andrei Tsygankov Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Andrei Tsygankov Esq.2014-12-04 16:44:082018-10-07 20:10:47Four Ways to Protect Your Intellectual Property\nAirbus Files Patent for New Commercial Aircraft\nAirbus, formerly known as the European aerospace and defense group, has filed a patent for a revolutionary commercial aircraft design. With its doughnut-like shape, the design is reminiscent of old science fiction space crafts, with a circular passenger cabin located behind the plane\u2019s nose, and between its wings. The patent is meant to address an overarching issue among aircraft designers. The current cylindrical shape of airplanes is effective at handling the pressurized cabin, but strong reinforcements are needed at the front and rear ends of the plane to counter the stresses. This design will force other considerations including the alteration of in-flight trolleys to handle the curved isles, and redesigning the boarding/departure process. Airbus hopes to provide a simple and efficient solution that will reduce emissions, improve flight times, and better preserve energy.

The search is finally over for the perfect Thanksgiving centerpiece. With the Gourd Head, you can fill your cornucopia with some familiar faces.\nThis strange invention patented in 1987, gives at-home gardeners the opportunity to add a dimension of uniqueness to their yield. The apparatus/method described, would allow gardeners to mold their product into a variety of interesting shapes. According to the inventor, these include \u201cthe image of a particular person; in the shape of a different type of produce (e.g., a summer squash grown in the shape of an ear of corn); a fanciful shape such as a heart, or a bottle of pop; or other simple or even quite detailed shapes.\u201d The inventor also mentions how the natural texture/designs of the produce can add to the artistic design of the final product.\nThe method is quite simple. The gardener places a mostly transparent mold over the growing fruit or vegetable to enable sunlight to still reach it. A key component is the yieldable nature of the mold, allowing it to stretch and expand with the growing produce, and a larger opening to avoid constricting the plant as it grows. For best results, the time the plant is in the mold should be minimized, meaning the reshaping should begin when the plant it just big enough to fit in the mold without being restricted by it. Usually, it will take 10-20 days for the plant to fill the mold and be ready for harvest. http://bit.ly/1yBsbEM\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/image_0.jpg 1139 746 Andrei Tsygankov Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Andrei Tsygankov Esq.2014-11-13 06:43:072018-10-07 20:10:48Creepiest Thanksgiving Patent\nPatent on Newly Discovered Material\nHow would an entrepreneur go about patenting a newly discovered material? Say if they were to discover a room temperature superconductor, a discovery that would affect life as we know it.\nThe first question you must ask is whether this superconductor exists in nature, or whether you had to create a special environment to foster its existence. If you simply dug a hole into the earth and found a new superconductive material, that may not be patentable. However, if you combined known elements x, y, and z to create this superconductor, then nearly everything may be patentable.\nFor example, there may be some process that you went through to make this discovery \u2013 that process may be patentable. There may be some process you went through to have isolated this superconductor from other naturally occurring elements that naturally accompany this semiconductor \u2013 that process may be patentable. There may be some environment you have created to foster the discovery of this superconductor \u2013 that environment may be patentable. Essentially, any man-made procedure, device, or system that led up to this discovery may be patentable \u2013 and any procedure, device, or system that results from this discovery may be patentable. If by combining elements x, y, and z, you discovered this superconductor, it may even been that you are entitled to a patent on the superconductor itself!\nWhen dealing with matters so interesting, its always best to consult a patent attorney.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/macbook-407127_1280.jpg 396 800 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2014-10-29 16:49:362018-09-24 03:19:34Patent on Newly Discovered Material\nApple\u2019s Latest Patent \u2013 Docking Station\nOur mission at SmartUp is to enable startups and entrepreneurs to grow and develop their patent portfolios.

Based on the claimed figures, it will be a hard shell with a keyboard attached to it. The accessory does not seem to be fold-able in any way which will probably limit its portability. It has a power connector in the back to keep your device charged while you are docked. There is also another connection point in the back that could possibly be used to connect to a monitor.\nThis design patent indicates that Apple may be trying to capture a market in need of utilizing their apple devices for their personal computing needs. We saw this earlier when Motorola made a laptop dock for its Atrix phone.\nAs our cellphones and tablets have their functionality migrate closer to the power of a personal computer, we are sure to see more products such as these.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/USD0680544-20130423-D00000.png 1507 3025 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2014-10-28 20:46:462018-09-24 03:19:39Apple's Latest Patent \u2013 Docking Station\nAmazon\u2019s New Patent Enhances E-books\nE-books are about to be fully loaded with Amazon\u2019s new Patent #8478662 entitled \u201cCustomized electronic books with supplemental content\u201d, originally covered by Wired.\nTheir intent is to turn content from an e-book from being fixed for every reader into a system that has individualized supplemental content by using a match making system between readers and contributors. Sort of like the extra features on a DVD, but, those features will be dependent on your preferences.\nThey will have both publisher and contributor supplemental content that will be distributed to the user. The content that the user receives depends on the relationship between the user and the contributors. Since by definition this means that different users will receive different content, will this take control of the content away from the author?\nThe threshold where the reader gets fed content from a contributor is based on a couple of factors:\nIs the contributor considered an expert related to e-books (how this is determined is vague)\nIs the contributor connected to the reader through social networking\nIs the reputation of the contributor higher than the competing contributors\nDoes the interests and preferences of the reader match what the contributor has outlined in their profile\nRatings of previous content by the contributor\nPrevious consumption of the contributors writing from both the reader and members in the readers social network\nThe type of content we plan on seeing these contributors produce are alternative storylines, reference materials and annotations. This is going to be a great tool for fan fiction writers, however, it will force them to really take control of their social presence.\nWhile the matchmaking system will make finding relevant content easier they are still leaps behind what some companies are doing to make reading more interactive. For instance, Wasabi Productions is making a whole slew of interactive children\u2019s books where the reader actually controls the content and not just gets fed something extra.\nComing up we will probably see an ecosystem of contributing writers in a similar fashion to what Amazon does with their third party sellers\u2019 platform.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/fig-5-227x300.png 300 227 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2014-10-28 20:42:232018-09-24 03:19:39Amazon\u2019s New Patent Enhances E-books\nApple\u2019s New Patents and What It Means For Travel\nApple was granted 37 patents recently according to a report from Patently Apple. Out of the series of granted patents, Patently focuses specifically on the IWallet patents. Upon examination, we discovered that most of the patents granted today focused more on communication between one mobile device and others. This includes patents on peer to peer communication and making a single mobile device a hub to send information to the different spokes. What interested us the most was US patent No. 8,463,286 entitled \u201cSystems and methods for accessing travel services on a portable device\u201d and how it will affect new marketing strategies.\nThe most important claims in this patent were:\nA method where the device recognizes when you are leaving and arriving on your trip by pulling data from your calendar.\nA method for sending notifications when the user arrives either through email, text, voice mail or push notification.\nA method for determining when the user is travelling by analyzing both the calendar data and when the user turns on and off their phone.\nA method for a third party or travel service provider to push offers as the user arrives or departs.\nBased on the claims, this patent was likely filed to cover air travel. Essentially, this will allow for your phone to automatically send a message or notification to your family (or whoever you decide) when you arrive. While this will save a phone call to your parents when you travel, it also has a marketing play.\nApple specifically points out methods for your travel service provider to send offers or upgrades during your traveling process. Examples of this could be an upgrade during departure or cab coupons when you land. This is a natural fit to Passbook which can leverage your travel information.\nGoogle and Uber have already started building a partnership taking advantage of events marketing. Released at Google\u2019s I/O conference was information on how they are leveraging your flight information from emails and connecting it with Uber to push discounts pre and post flight.\nJust look at the different plays Apple envisions for in the diagram on the right taken straight from the patent application. Travel providers, restaurants and third parties who target a person getting off and on a plane should start preparing to take advantage of pushing their product on this platform.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Plane.jpg 406 800 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2014-10-28 20:40:202018-09-24 03:19:40Apple's New Patents and What It Means For Travel\nInteresting Patents, Patent, Patent Search\nUSPTO Issues 700,000th Design Patent\nThe USPTO recently did a press release about the issuance of the 700,000th design patent. The patent for the ornamental design for a \u201cHand-Held Learning Apparatus\u201d was issued to Jason Avery of Berkeley, California and is currently assigned to Emeryville, California-based LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: LF).\nIn case you did not already know a design patent protects the physical appearance of a product, including software graphics such as user interfaces and icons. To determine what is protected in a design patent, you would look at the drawings. The drawings will contain three types of lines: solid lines, dashed lines, and shading lines. The solid lines indicate the part of the design that is protected by the patent, the dashed lines indicate \u2018optional\u2019 parts of the design that aren\u2019t protected by the design patent, and the shading lines indicate the surface and its texture.\nYou can find all this information by using the USPTO patent search tool. Just type \u201cUS D700000 S1\u201d in the search field, this will lead you to a plethora of information including drawings and patent claims and methods.\nThis milestone is significant because it shows the size to which our patent office has grown. Our Intellectual property system is a catalyst grow growth in innovation. \u201cThe design area has increased from twenty five and a half thousand applications in 2009 to just over thirty five thousand filings in 2013\u201d said Deputy Director of the USPTO Michelle Lee .\nLeapfrog got issued the 700,000th design patent. Rate of growth for patent issuance has increased by over 30% in the past 5 years.\nAbout Design Patent Number 700,000\nThe LeapsterGS\u2122, delivers more than 40 different learning and play experiences for children ages four to nine, and features a hi-res finger-touch screen, and Flash and 3D graphics. The device is ergonomically designed with small children in mind, yet is simple, with bold and fun design features. It stores information about a child\u2019s progress and adjusts game and activity challenges in real-time, for learning adventures that keep kids going on their own path, at their own pace. And select titles also let players customize the curriculum, selecting their own spelling words or mathematics skill sets to load into games, effectively \u201cdoing their homework\u201d as they play.\nhttps://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Human.jpg 356 800 Yuri Eliezer Esq. https://www.smartuplegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/SmartupLegal_logo_new_white.png Yuri Eliezer Esq.2014-10-28 20:30:342018-09-24 03:19:40USPTO Issues 700,000th Design Patent\nAutomobile Patents Are Growing\nSince 2010, the number of patents filed from the automobile industry has nearly doubled as car manufacturers look to make greener, more autonomous cars affordable for the average consumer.

        "title": "Nine and Fairfax merger: What does it mean?",
        "raw_content": "What does the Nine-Fairfax merger mean?\nThe Age and The Sydney Morning Herald are now part of a company called Nine. What does it mean for the journalists, the companies, Australian media and you?\nThe merger of Fairfax Media and Nine Entertainment Company is finally complete. What does it mean for journalists, for the companies and the media landscape?\nNine Entertainment Co's historic merger with 177-year-old publishing house Fairfax Media (formerly the owner of The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age) is now done and dusted, with new Nine shares set to start trading on the ASX from Monday.\nIn late 2017, the Turnbull government abolished cross-media ownership laws that had been in place since the 1980s and which prevented any company from owning more than two out of the following three platforms in a single market: TV stations, newspapers and radio stations.\nMedia companies lobbied hard for the laws to be removed, arguing they needed greater scale to survive in the face of competition from internet giants such as Facebook and Google, who now dominate digital advertising.\nIn July, Nine chairman Peter Costello phoned his counterpart at Fairfax, Nick Falloon, with a proposal to unite the two companies. Three weeks later, the deal had been approved by both company boards, and was publicly announced to the stockmarket. Last month it was approved by the competition regulator, Fairfax shareholders, and the courts.\nIs it a merger or a takeover?\nTechnically, the deal was structured as a merger but in reality it is a takeover. Fairfax shareholders received Nine shares and some cash for surrendering control of their company and its assets. Nine chief executive Hugh Marks will run the enlarged business, Costello remains chairman and the name of the combined company is ... Nine. The Fairfax corporate brand will cease to exist.\nThe TV network's shareholders will own 51 per cent of the combined company, Fairfax's the remaining 49 per cent. Fairfax will contribute three members to the new board, including Falloon, who becomes deputy chairman.\nHow big a deal is it in terms of media in Australia?\nPretty big. The deal creates Australia's biggest domestic media company. It will have about 6000 employees, and a strong presence across print, TV, radio and online. Based on trailing figures, it will generate $3 billion in annual revenue, and earnings of $483 million (before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation). Nine is the second-rated TV network in the country, while the Herald has the biggest cross-platform audience of any newspaper in Australia and The Age has the fourth-biggest total audience.\nWhat does it mean for readers?\nIt shouldn't change anything.\nHow much say will Nine have in what goes into The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Australian Financial Review?\nNine's board has promised to sign up to Fairfax's charter of editorial independence. That prevents the Nine board or management team from interfering in the newspapers, for commercial or political (or any other) reasons. It also gives editors full control over the papers. Marks has said the Fairfax papers will retain their distinct tones and target audiences.\nWhat difference will it make to Domain?\nGetting hold of Fairfax's 59.4 per cent holding in Domain was a key driver of the deal. The majority ownership stake in the real-estate platform now passes to Nine. Domain may get increased exposure on Channel Nine's TV shows such as The Block as the new parent company seeks to grow the business and better compete with News Corp's REA Group.\nWill the newspaper people start appearing on TV?\nThat remains to be seen. But Marks has told staff he has no objections to collaborations between the newspapers and other media companies including the ABC.\nWhat happens if reporters want to critique something that Nine has done?\nThat's fine and Nine won't stand in the way of it.\nHas anyone lost their job?\nYes. Nine has made 144 roles redundant across sales, product, and other support functions. Due to some duplicate roles being filled, this affected 92 people. Fairfax chief executive Greg Hywood and direct reports such as chief financial officer David Housego and general counsel Gail Hambly will also leave on Friday. Nine has said it won't cut any editorial jobs \u2013 for the time being.",

Vampyros Lesbos is a poetic and dreamlike twist on Bram Stoker\u2019s classic tale. With an underwater scorpion, a talking kite and a lot of sex. Oh, who are we kidding? You were probably right the first time.\nLinda (Ewa Str\u00f6mberg) works for a Turkish legal firm called Simpson & Simpson (no, really) and sees Nadine (Soledad Miranda) doing a sexy nightclub act with a woman who looks like a mannequin but isn\u2019t (we think). She\u2019s obviously impressed because she nibbles her lip a lot while she\u2019s watching it and, as far as we understand the rules of cinema, this means she\u2019s a bit turned on. Needless to say, Linda starts to have dreams about Nadine. As luck would have it, she\u2019s called to the island Nadine lives on (who turns out to be Countess Nadine Carody, so she\u2019s obviously a vampire) to make arrangements for her inheritance. Oooh, bit like Jonathan Harker then. Despite receiving warnings not to go from what turns out to be the local psycho (Jesus Franco himself), she goes along anyway and a kite (repeatedly) calls her name. Seriously, there\u2019s an awful lot of that kite. She checks into the local hotel (without any luggage, we couldn\u2019t help but notice) and meets up with Nadine who obviously isn\u2019t one of those sunlight-fearing vampires as she likes to sunbath in a white bikini. Like all good business meetings, they start off with some skinny-dipping and then they have sex (Tod Browning obviously missed a trick there). And then it all gets a bit complicated. There\u2019s lots of dreamy-weirdness involving an underwater scorpion (no idea, sorry) and there\u2019s even a Doctor Seward (Dennis Price) just to give it a bit more Stokeresque authenticity. A bit unconvincing on that front, we\u2019re afraid. But there\u2019s a lot more sex and a soundtrack that makes you think you\u2019re in a 1970s curry house.\nSo you\u2019re probably wondering if all of this is any good . Actually, to be fair, you might not be wondering at all as you may well have made your mind up from the title. It\u2019s not a bad way of judging it. Vampyros Lesbos does indeed have an artsy-beauty to it all and it\u2019s certainly dreamlike as long as you\u2019re prepared to accept being a bit slow as part of the deal. But that probably isn\u2019t going to be quite enough to keep you entertained if the sight of Ewa Str\u00f6mberg and especially Soledad Miranda going girl-on-girl isn\u2019t your thing. It has to be said that the very beautiful Miranda (who died in a car crash just a month after completing the film) is very much the star here even if Str\u00f6mberg gets top billing. If you\u2019re a fan of Miranda, then you\u2019ll probably love this.\nWe still don\u2019t get the kite...\nSpecial Features: Interviews / German trailer / Opening titles\nVAMPYROS LESBOS (1971) / DIRECTOR: JES\u00daS FRANCO / SCREENPLAY: JAIME CH\u00c1VARRI, JES\u00daS FRANCO / STARRING: EWA STR\u00d6MBERG, SOLEDAD MIRANDA, ANDR\u00c9S MONALES, DENNIS PRICE, PAUL M\u00dcLLER / RELEASED: NOVEMBER 30TH",

        "raw_content": "Home Latest Blog Getting into the driving seat: 6 mindsets every automotive retailer should understand\nRecent news that vehicles purchases have been declining year on year in the UK has some brands scrambling to look at ways to boost sales. Official figures for car registrations in March showed a sharp drop in sales of 15.7% compared to the same month last year.\nThis marked the twelfth consecutive month of declining new car sales, one of the main causes being a drop in popularity for diesel cars. Sales numbers for hybrid and electric cars were 5.7% up on the same month last year. Petrol cars grew marginally. The news is significant, showing that, with the demise of some traditional types of vehicles (diesel accounted for 51.3% of the market in 2012, compared to 32.4% now), automotive companies must look to changing attitudes and mindsets to vehicles in order to stay relevant with a wide variety of customers.\nCustomer-centricity is the key to remaining relevant and continuing to thrive in a changing landscape, but when it comes to customer data, automotive brands are at a disadvantage. While a retailer may see their customers 8-9 times per year, a typical auto manufacturer only sees their customers once every 3-5 years. By enriching transaction data with third-party data sets such as social intelligence, brands can understand the mindsets that lead to purchase and begin to align themselves with what customers truly care about.\nStarcount has conducted an in-depth study into the UK automotive market, analysing the passions and motivations behind millions of consumers and clustering these together to form different mindsets, which can help to reveal the nature of individual customers. Here are the six key customer mindsets in the UK automotive industry that brands should be aware of, taken from Starcount\u2019s pioneering Observatory platform:\nSustainable living is the top priority for those in the Environment mindset. From investing in renewable energy to researching electric vehicles, these consumers are interested in any initiative that contributes to a cleaner planet. When it comes to purchasing decisions, they value businesses with a social conscience.\n2. Affluent\nThe Affluent consumers are a largely male consumer group, with a London-focused lifestyle. They are well-off with a passion for finance and foreign affairs, often working in banking or related industries.\nThose consumers with a Money Saving mindset are always on the hunt for a bargain. They love to enter competitions and turn to influencers such as Martin Lewis for financial advice. Although there is an equal gender split within the group, female Money Saving consumers are more likely to describe themselves in relation to their familial roles, with many of them being proud wives and mothers.\nThe Family Values mindset refers to proud parents whose focus is on raising their families. The majority of them are female, and they are likely to be more cost-conscious than other mindsets, due to a financial responsibility towards their children. Many of them are new or expectant mothers, going through a significant life change and excitedly anticipating becoming parents. They are influenced by social media stars, actively seeking out people whose lives seem to mirror their own.\n5. Car Enthusiasts\nFrom their professional lives to their private ones, Car Enthusiasts\u2019 primary passion is the world of motoring. Some of them work in the automotive space, from dealerships to driving schools. They spend their time scouring for the latest automotive news and love to watch motorsports such as the British Touring Car Championship and the World Superbike Championships. These consumers are brand-loyal, with their favourites including Lamborghini, Lotus and Alfa Romeo.\nThe Tech Savvy group are almost 75% male. They are fascinated by science and technology, with a broad range of interests that encompass engineering, astrophysics, aviation, fintech and data analytics. Many of them have made technology their profession, founding their own companies or rising through the ranks of established businesses to reach a coveted CTO position. They are attracted to pioneering brands with a commitment to cutting-edge innovations.\nClick here to download the full version of our Automotive whitepaper.",

        "raw_content": "I got involved because I had to, as I was the one who had a company vehicle and could transport her to and fro, from home to the programme and back. My wife who is Lose\u2019s older sister told me to and that was all I had to do.\nThe first Saturday that we all got together at the Highbrook venue was an eye opener as listening to what Monty and the team had to say about the high rate of obesity amongst our young people in New Zealand and the health issue that it is connected with; Mostly Type 2 Diabetes. From there I started to think about the amount of sugar, salt and the high amount of fat that is in the food we eat every day.\nWe are a typical Island family who eat a typical Island meal which includes a large amount of meat with fat; which is regarded as the best part of the meat, a large amount of taro and bananas (cooked in coconut cream) and potatoes/kumara. Not to mention the extra amount of salt that is added to it as well for extra taste. I even started to get more involved in the programme with Lose, to the point that I even decided to challenge myself to lose weight. What was also encouraging to see, are the other supporting family members, getting in behind their kids and also challenging themselves to lose weight as well.\nAs the journey continued for Lose and me over the next few weeks we started to change what we ate and what we drank.\nThe best part of the programme is the fact that the Steps for Life team tells the participants and their supporting family members, the real facts about the importance of the steps that we have learnt to get us through life. The Steps for Life team really care about what we do. You can actually see it as they encourage each family to be accountable and that is measured by the loss of weight due to exercise or eating or both. What really sticks in my mind is that, to lose weight, it is 20% exercise and 80% what you eat.\nSo by changing the types of food we buy and knowing the portion size of each food group that we should eat, it\u2019s probably; sorry it is definitely why we are a lot healthier and now have more energy to do things. What is also required, is the support that the kids need from the supporting family members involved and from the wider family. Without that support it makes it harder on the kids in the programme. So family support is really important for the kids to succeed in this programme.\nFor myself personally, and by eating right and not doing much exercise I have lost about 10 kgs in 10 weeks. I could have lost more if I did more exercise, but what I wanted to show Lose; that it is by eating right you can lose weight as well. So in our cupboards and fridge/freezer, we now stock the right food. Also shopping is more enjoyable when you are comparing labels (even though it takes a little bit longer).\nSteps for Life, have given us the steps to make sure that we can make better decisions in life. This is the best programme I have been introduced to and would tell anyone who is involved to grab it with both hands and to take on board, the skills that Steps for Life have to offer. It is not a diet or weight loss challenge but a life style change. Steps for Life = Healthier Life.\nFiti Potusa - Lose's Brother in Law",

        "raw_content": "20-year-old Ryan Shtuka was reported missing in the resort town of Sun Peaks Feb. 17 after he failed to show up for work. His parents, Heather and Scott Shtuka, have travelled from Beaumont, Alta. to conduct daily searches for their son in the months since his disappearance. (Image credit: Wikimedia Commons/B.C. RCMP)\nThe family of Ryan Shtuka returns to Alberta without their son\nIt\u2019s been more than five months since Heather Shtuka and her husband Scott arrived in Kamloops to look for their missing son, Ryan.\nThis past Tuesday they made the tough decision to return home to their two other children without the knowledge of what happened to their son.\nSince Ryan disappeared from Sun Peaks in the early morning hours of Feb. 17, more than 1,000 volunteers have spent hours combing the ski hill, holding vigils and fundraisers to support the Shtuka family. Some of the volunteers have even returned more than once to search for the 20 year old.\nShtukas two daughters are graduating this year, one from high school and the other from university and according to Heather\u2019s Facebook page, she has decided to return to Alberta to spend time with them.\nRELATED: Weekend search for Ryan Shtuka planned\nWhen Shtuka and her husband came to Sun Peaks to look for their son they said they would not leave until he was found, but as the months wore on they made the decision to return home, but not without thanking those who had helped look for Ryan. The Shtukas created a video in honour of the volunteers who spent countless hours searching.\n\u201cWithout all of you, none of this would be possible. Each of you have shown that love is not limited by blood. That you can make a difference. You have proven that an investment in others, far and wide, yields great dividends. That is the legacy I want for my son. For all of my children,\u201d Heather wrote on Facebook.\nRyan is believed to have left a party on Burfield Drive at about 2:10 a.m., or possibly 1:30 a.m. and walked to the village centre for something to eat.\nRELATED: Search for Ryan Shtuka in Sun Peaks continues\nOver the months the Shtuka\u2019s have organized volunteer shuttles from Edmonton, Alta., operated bobcats to dig in the snow and canvassed the area in search of surveillance videos from people\u2019s homes; however they have turned up empty handed.\nThe search for Ryan continues, as the video reaches more than 100,000 views, 1,500 shares and garnered over 100 comments.\nIt appears Ryan will not be forgotten as social media users share his story and donate in his name to a GoFundMe which currently sits at more than $90,000.",

        "raw_content": "SUU Pledges to be Voter Friendly\nPublished: August 12, 2016 | Author: Cami Mathews | Category: Special Events\nToday, the Michael O. Leavitt Center for Politics and Public Service at Southern Utah University announced that it has pledged to spend the next year working to be a \u201cVoter Friendly Campus\u201d. The initiative, led by national groups Campus Vote Project (CVP) and NASPA \u2013 Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education, holds participating schools accountable for planning and implementing practices that encourage their students to register and vote.\nThe mission of the Voter Friendly Campus designation is to bolster efforts that help students overcome barriers to participating in the political process. The Leavitt Center will participate in trainings to develop and implement strategic plans for how to foster a culture of democratic engagement among students. Institutions that complete the program will be evaluated in early 2017 and awarded the Voter Friendly Campus designation through December 2018.\nNearly 100 campuses are committed to the program and by participating in this program, Southern Utah University is making a strong statement about the civic mission of higher education to prepare students to be engaged participants in the nation\u2019s democracy.\nThe Leavitt Center has stepped up to gain this title for the campus because its central focus is to help students and the community better themselves in the four pillars of the Center: leadership, research, service, and citizenship. The Center, who hosts a Voter Registration event every Fall Semester, has worked to gain this title to accentuate the citizenship pillar mentioned above. Donna Law, the center\u2019s Executive Director, pushed for this designation because she knows that voting is an important right and responsibility for citizens across the state and nation.\n\u201cRegistration is a vital step in taking advantage of the right to vote,\u201d said Law. \u201cAs students have questions, we can help answer them and/or take them to the Leavitt Center where we can research with them issues and concerns that may help them determine which party, if any, most aligns with their values.\u201d\nTo help the University achieve this designation, the Leavitt Center is planning multiple events during this election season to get students registered and excited to go out and vote. There will be Pizza & Politics discussions to teach students about the latest news, a Voter Registration Drive September 12-15, and other events within the walls of the Leavitt Center focused on educating the community on local and state elections, as well as the national election.\nThe institutions undertaking the designation process this year represent a wide range of two-year, four-year, public, private, rural, and urban campuses, with a total enrollment of nearly 1.5 million students. The Leavitt Center and Southern Utah University look forward to taking steps toward a Voter Friendly Campus, looking forward to the positive implications of such a title.",

Newer models especially are big on infotainment features, including Wi-Fi and smartphone integration. Used Chevrolet Camaro buyers will find that it turns heads with its sleek, aerodynamic exterior. Come in and test drive the Camaro today!\nThe modern used Chevrolet Camaro has never looked or felt so good. After a fresh redesign in 2016, the Camaro offers enhanced power and a number of engine options. For the first time ever, you can purchase a Camaro with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine to maximize fuel economy. This four-cylinder engine still delivers the speed you crave, offering 275 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. If you're a traditionalist, look for the 6.2-liter V8 engine. With it, the sixth-generation Camaro commands 455 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque.\nInside, the latest used Chevrolet Camaro is big on passenger space, comfort, and high-tech convenience. Seating is soft and supportive, and drivers will find important controls within easy reach. The MyLink infotainment system delivers smartphone integration and voice-command technology. The OnStar telematics system does more than keep you protected with features like on-demand roadside assistance. It also offers a handy Wi-Fi connection, so passengers can surf the Web on up to seven devices.\nWhen you shop for a fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro, you'll find a lot to like. Chevrolet created five Camaro trim models that delivered everything from a sport-tuned suspension to high-performance Brembo brakes. If you crave top-notch speed, keep your eyes peeled for the ZL1 model. Its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine maximized performance, with 580 horsepower and 556 pound-feet of torque.\nLike its predecessors, the fourth-generation Camaro was a sleek, stylish muscle car. Beginning in 1994, shoppers could purchase convertible models. In 1998, Chevrolet gave the Camaro a mid-cycle refresh. It introduced a 5.7-liter V8 engine that produced 305 horsepower in the Z28 models and 320 horses in the SS models.\nHere Chevrolet introduced fuel injection, greatly modernizing performance. The Camaro's four-speed automatic transmission offered a smooth, responsive performance. The third-generation Camaro was also almost 500 pounds lighter than previous models, making it easier to handle.\nThese models offered an aerodynamic new exterior, capitalizing on the brand's reputation for speed and style. The body was also larger and wider, effectively increasing interior space. Mid-1977, the Z28 package reappeared to create a truly inspiring ride.\nWhen the original Chevrolet Camaro appeared, its rear-drive and front-engine setup was something of a novelty. The engine bay was home to a number of performance parts, which worked in conjunction to deliver a tire-burning experience. Shoppers could choose from standard, Super Sport, and Rally Sport editions.",

        "raw_content": "Cover-up attempted by murder suspect Timothy Cassidy, authorities say\nTwo arrested for trying to help Cassidy plant gun that might be murder weapon.\nTimothy J. Cassidy \u2014 the man accused of the 2007 cold-blooded murder of former friend James Madonna of Taunton \u2014 appears to have been busy pulling strings in jail while awaiting trial on the capital offense.\nAn investigation undertaken in November by Taunton police detectives and state police \u2014 with information developed by a special agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives \u2014 resulted this week in the arrest of Cassidy's father living in Mansfield, as well as an East Taunton woman.\nThe scenario of the scheme, allegedly hatched by Cassidy, points to a convoluted attempt to tamper with and then plant the murder weapon.\nThe pair arrested this week stand accused of following the directives of the incarcerated Cassidy to transport a handgun into the hands of a former cellmate turned police informant.\nIn a bizarre and cruel twist that perhaps sheds light on Cassidy's psyche, the informant told authorities that he was instructed by the 40-year-old murder suspect to plant the gun \u2014 either under a shed in the Madonna family's Hodges Street backyard, or underneath the pickup truck seat of the murder victim's brother-in-law, who also resides at the Hodges Street residence.\nOn Wednesday in Taunton District Court, Charles Cassidy, 60, of 20 Erick Road in Mansfield, was held on $2,500 cash bail on two counts of being an accessory after the fact of murder, and also for carrying a firearm without the required identification (FID) card.\nHe is due back in court for a Jan. 20 pre-trial hearing.\nGertrude Westgate, 43, of 175 Middleboro Ave., was arraigned the same day on the same three counts and held on $2,000 cash bail. Her pre-trial hearing is scheduled for Feb. 23.\nThe informant, according to a report compiled by a state police trooper assigned to the Bristol County District Attorney's Office, said that during the month and a half the two men shared a cell in the Dartmouth House of Correction, he came to believe Cassidy's contention that he was an innocent man.\nBut the informant told authorities he quickly changed his mind when, after having been released for a month, he received a letter from Cassidy urging him to do him a favor.\nThat favor was that he contact a woman named Trudy, while presenting himself as someone named Paul, and telling her that he intended to collect a bag that she had previously picked up from a man in Raynham, which she had done at the behest of an individual named John.\nAccording to the police report, Cassidy in his letter allegedly wrote that his former roommate should then clean the item (the word gun is not mentioned) by soaking it in paint thinner or gasoline.\n\u201cDump, clip, clean it [and] if you can find some shells, fill it,\u201d Cassidy allegedly wrote.\nThe letter also instructed the informant to \u201cget rid of this item,\u201d either by placing it underneath the Madonna family's backyard shed, or by leaving it under the front seat of a pickup truck belonging to Kevin Hayes, the 50-year-old brother of Pam Madonna, widow of the slain James Madonna.\nThe second of the two choices would be more difficult but was preferable, according to Cassidy's letter, which went on to describe how a woman would subsequently \u201ccome forward once the item\u201d is placed under the front seat.\nThe former inmate said he decided not only that Cassidy was guilty but that he was trying to set him up for a fall, at which point he called law enforcement. He also told police that Cassidy had been \u201crunning the [cell] block\u201d and was known as a \u201cmoney man\u201d involved in numerous illegal jailhouse activities.\nCassidy has been charged with shooting James Madonna to death at close range in the early morning of November 21, 2007, while the two men sat next to each other in a Jeep sports utility vehicle, parked adjacent to one of the many businesses inside the Myles Standish Industrial Park.\nThe two reportedly had previously been playing hands of Texas hold'em cards at the Holiday Inn Taunton, also located inside the park.\nMadonna's widow, Pam \u2014 shortly after Cassidy was tracked down and arrested in a hotel in a small Georgia town \u2014 told the Taunton Daily Gazette that the day her husband's body was found also happened to be the agreed upon deadline that Cassidy was to repay a multi-thousand dollar loan made to him by her deceased husband.\nShe also told the Gazette that Cassidy feigned concern by driving her then 20-year-old son around the industrial park looking for her husband in the early morning darkness. When Cassidy pulled into the lot that contained the Jeep, she said that he allowed her son to approach the vehicle and discover his father's bullet-ridden body.\nWithin a week Cassidy had fled the state and headed south; it took two weeks for authorities to discover his whereabouts in the Peach State.\nFollowing an initial meeting between the informant, Taunton Police Detective Peter Corr and ATF Special Agent Michael Payne \u2014 held at Rhode Island State Police Barracks in Lincoln Woods \u2014 a plan was hatched to follow Cassidy's instructions to the extent of making arrests.\nAfter leaving messages on her cell phone (while in the company of Corr and State Police Detective Unit trooper Michael Cherven), a woman identifying herself as Trudy eventually called back the informant.\nThe woman, who at first said that she was busy and couldn't talk \u2014 later explaining to the informant, aka Paul, that her mother had been within earshot \u2014 was told by \u201cPaul\u201d that he \u201cwas supposed to pick something up\u201d from her.\nShe and the informant agreed to meet that Nov. 27 Friday night in the parking lot of the Raynham Walmart.\nThe informant was driven to Walmart at 5 p.m. by another state trooper in an undercover car. Once there they met up with a woman who later turned out to be Gertrude Westgate.\nWestgate and a female companion exited their car and allegedly took a brown bag from the trunk, handing it to the informant. The women then reportedly went shopping in Walmart.\nSurveillance was established as the two eventually came out and drove away, police said. They were pulled over in Taunton on Fruit Street by TPD Capt. Edward Walsh, who confirmed the identity of the driver as Westgate and that of her companion, 37-year-old Jeannine Pittman of Taunton.\nThe report does not indicate that either woman was held and questioned following the traffic stop.\nPolice transported the evidence to the Taunton Police station. Inside the brown paper bag was a plastic bag containing a paint can, and inside that, they said, was a silver-colored pistol wrapped in a paint-soaked towel.\nThe handgun was sent to the State Police Crime Lab in Lakeville for ballistics testing.\nThe following Monday state police said they were able to match the test casing from the Star brand Firestar series .40-caliber pistol to those recovered at the scene of Madonna's murder two years earlier.\nBut they also said that, due to corrosion of the barrel, that it wasn't possible to \u201cmatch the projectile in this same murder.\u201d\nThe next day, Tuesday, police interviewed Gertrude Westgate. She told cops she had taken delivery of the paint can from a man calling himself Butch, who she said drove a large, red luxury car, and who had met her in the parking lot of the Bob's store in Raynham.\nThat man, she said, had told her that he needed to get rid of the package, because he was scheduled to soon undergo heart surgery.\nWestgate also said that she had been encouraged to hold onto a package by her boyfriend John Andrade, who had called her while he was serving time in Dartmouth House of Correction.\nThe police report indicates that Cassidy orchestrated the phone call and subsequent meeting between Westgate and Butch.\nAfter interviewing Westgate, police took a ride to Mansfield where they picked up Charles Cassidy and brought him back to Taunton.\nThe elder Cassidy told police that in June or July he'd gotten an \u201canonymous\u201d call advising him to retrieve a can of contact cement from his brother's residence.\nHe stated that he went to the house and was allowed to enter the garage by \u201cTim's wife.\u201d\nThe police report doesn't mention either a specific address or woman's name, but according to information released after the Madonna murder, Timothy Cassidy's last known address had been 305 Shagbark Road.\nCharles Cassidy alternately told police he did not put the gun in the paint can and that he was also unaware of its contents. He did, according to police, admit that he was told the can would in some way \u201cassist Tim Cassidy in getting out of jail.\u201d\nHe also allegedly admitted that he had made a mistake by not contacting police.\nCassidy, who drives a red Chrysler New Yorker, allegedly also stated that Timothy, during a face to face meeting in jail, asked him to drive past the Madonna residence.\nCassidy further stated that he did not follow his son's suggestion and did not want to continue helping him. He did, however, admit to meeting Trudy and giving her the can.",

        "raw_content": "City\u2019s jobless rate remains on the rise\nThe city\u2019s jobless rate rose slightly in July, marking the second straight month of double-digit unemployment.\nTaunton posted a 10.3 percent unemployment rate for July, up from 10.2 percent in June, according to the most recent data from the state\u2019s Executive Office of Labor and Workforce development. This time last year, Taunton\u2019s rate of joblessness was 6.2 percent.\nNearly every community in the region also posted increased jobless figures for July. Middleboro\u2019s rate dipped slightly to 9.8 percent, while Norton\u2019s stayed stagnant at 9.7 percent. Unemployment rates in every other surrounding community rose.\nSoutheastern Massachusetts has been one of the hardest hit regions of the commonwealth, with Bristol County posting a state high 11.3 percent rate of unemployment.\n\u201cThe local economy is difficult across all sectors,\u201d Joseph Viana, director of operations for Career Centers of Bristol County, said in a recent interview. \u201cAll levels have been affected. It doesn\u2019t seem to be specific to any one area. It is across the board.\u201d\nThe Massachusetts statewide unemployment rate rose to 8.9 percent in July from 8.7 percent in June, as the state lost 2,800 jobs during the month. The figures are not adjusted for seasonal employment.\nState officials said that the commonwealth\u2019s largest job declines in July were felt in government, where about 2,000 jobs were lost, and manufacturing, where 1,900 jobs were lost.\nThe newest set of unemployment data is the first to reflect the widespread government layoffs, which came as a result of a budget crunch on both the state and local levels. The new state and municipal budgets went into effect July 1, the beginning of the current fiscal year.\nThe losses offset employment gains in other areas, including leisure and hospitality, and professional, scientific and business services, the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development said.\nThe state\u2019s unemployment rate remains below the national average, which dropped one-tenth of a point to 9.4 percent in July.\nOfficials said the overall labor force in Massachusetts increased by 21,500 in July. More than 12,000 of those people had jobs and about 9,000 did not.\nAlthough Taunton\u2019s 10.3 unemployment rate is the highest in the immediate vicinity, other nearby cities are faring even worse. Brockton\u2019s jobless rate is 11.7 percent, Fall River\u2019s is 14.1 percent and New Bedford\u2019s is 14.0 percent.",

Measures already adopted mean that anyone who has visited \u201ccountries of concern\u201d \u2013 including Yemen, Libya and Somalia \u2013 since March 2011, no longer qualify for visa waiver.\nDual nationals from Syria, Iran and Sudan have also been excluded from the programme.\nOther more far reaching measures advocated by a number of senators \u2013 including demanding finger-printing first-time visitors to the USA before they boarded an aircraft \u2013 were shelved.\nThe US tourist industry is fighting to protect the scheme fearing that its demise would hit an industry vital to the US economy.\nNew restrictions could endanger President Barack Obama\u2019s ambition for the US to welcome 100 million visitors a year by 2021.\n\u201cThese are really tricky times,\u201d said Roger Dow, the chief executive of the US Travel Association. \u201cThe incidents in Paris and Brussels have triggered increased scrutiny here and around the world.\n\u201cIf there is no security, there is no travel. But we have to have a system which allows legitimate travel without any hassle.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "ERIK JONES SCORES XFINITY SERIES WIN AT TMS\nDrop the green flag on a NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Texas Motor Speedway, and Erik Jones is money.\nJones scored his second series victory in five starts in Fort Worth Saturday afternoon, dominating the 110-lap third segment of the 21st annual My Bariatric Solutions 300.\nJones, who also won Stage 1 after 45 laps, conquered TMS\u2019 repaved and re-profiled 1.5-mile oval to become the sixth different XFINITY winner in as many 2017 starts. Jones won his first series start at TMS from pole position in 2015, and had not finished worse than fourth in three subsequent starts leading into Saturday\u2019s 200-lap/300-miler.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a good track for me,\u201d said Jones, who in addition to his success also celebrated his high school graduation at Texas Motor Speedway in June of 2014 during pre-race ceremonies for a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race and went on to finish 11th.\n\u201cThe first time I came here, it\u2019s funny, it really wasn\u2019t that good to me,\u201d Jones said. \u201cBut after that it just kind of clicked and I felt really good here ever since. The repave was really treacherous to start the weekend and this is a nice way to bounce back for myself after going to a backup (Friday) in the Cup car. Hopefully this is a good start for tomorrow. We have a long ways to go, but great win today and nice to get this Camry to Victory Lane.\u201d\nJones wrecked his primary Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series No. 77 5-hour ENERGY Extra Strength Toyota during Friday\u2019s extended practice, and will start Sunday\u2019s O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts 500 in his backup Camry from the 36th grid spot.\nJones finished 0.512 seconds ahead of Ryan Blaney and the No. 22 Discount Tire Ford Mustang. Kevin Harvick rounded out the podium in the No. 41 Hunt Brothers Pizza Ford.\nJones took the lead for good during a round of green flag pit stops on Lap 156, setting up a final segment dash with Blaney and Harvick. Jones led three times for a race-high 112 laps.\n\u201cI think we just had to look at what the track was doing over the race and kind of how the track changed what our car did,\u201d said Jones, accompanied by car owner Joe Gibbs and crew chief Chris Gabehart in the post-race press conference. \u201cWe really didn\u2019t make many adjustments. Chris did a great job last night trying to get the car freed up for today. The track was definitely a lot tighter. Just cool to get back to Victory Lane.\u201c\nJones posted his first win and third top-10 result of 2017 as well as his fifth top-five finish in five starts at Texas Motor Speedway.\nBlaney earned his fourth top-10 XFINITY finish in four races at TMS as well as his second top-10 of the season in the car fielded by Penske Racing.\n\u201cI thought our car was pretty good all day,\u201d said Blaney, who led twice for 43 laps. \u201cThe No. 20 seemed to be a little better than us for 35 or 40 laps. Then I feel like we could start running him down. We passed him before the last pit stop and I thought our car was pretty decent right there. I needed to turn a little better early in a run. I knew it wasn\u2019t going to be that long for the next stint. We didn\u2019t come out with the lead and that hurt us. I think if we would have come out with the lead I don\u2019t know if I could have held him off. He was pretty good right away, but we over-adjusted and got too free that last run.\n\u201cI felt like we were kind of even with them 10 laps into a run but then he got so far out ahead that we couldn\u2019t run him down. Just couldn\u2019t get there.\u201d\nAustin Dillon finished fourth and was followed by rookie Cole Custer and for the sixth consecutive race Darrell Wallace Jr. finished sixth. Rookie William Byron finished seventh, followed by Ty Dillon, rookie Matt Tifft and Elliott Sadler, who exited Texas with a six-point lead over JR Motorsports teammate Byron in the series standings.\nCuster, driver of the No. 00 Haas Automation Ford, also was the highest-finishing XFINITY Series driver as Jones, Blaney, Harvick and Austin Dillon are Cup Series regulars and ineligible to score XFINITY points.\n\u201cWe had an awesome Haas Automation Mustang, we just had to bide our time,\u201d Custer said. \u201cWe kept getting stuck on the outside on the restarts and had to wait and wait until we got track position on the bottom. We had a really strong run. I can\u2019t thank everybody enough who made this happen. I feel like I\u2019m getting more and more comfortable as I get experience and used to racing everybody. We\u2019re making strides, both me and the team.\u201d\nIn addition to the victory, Jones also won the opening stage of the My Bariatric Solutions while rookie William Byron captured the second stage.",

        "raw_content": "CARL EDWARDS TO BE 20TH MEMBER INDUCTED INTO TEXAS MOTORSPORTS HALL OF FAME\nFORT WORTH, Texas (October 4, 2018) -\nFor Carl Edwards, Texas Motor Speedway will forever hold a place in his heart.\nSite of the final victory of his Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series career, Edwards will return to world-renowned motorsports facility on Saturday, Nov. 3 during the AAA Texas 500 NASCAR tripleheader playoff weekend, where he'll be inducted into the Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame.\nEdwards will become the 20th member inducted into the Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame when he is honored during a special ceremony held in The Grand Ballroom of The Speedway Club, beginning at 11 a.m. CT. Other honorees include team owner Joe Gibbs, Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series driver Kevin Harvick and NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Christopher Bell.\nThe Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame ceremony serves as a major fundraiser for the Speedway Children's Charities-Texas Chapter. Tickets are priced at $75 and includes a gourmet Texas barbecue.\nEdwards wasted little time trying to find his way to Victory Lane at Texas Motor Speedway, winning in just his second career Cup Series start on Nov. 6, 2005 in the Dickies 500. Three years later, he became the first driver to sweep both Cup Series races in the same weekend at Texas Motor Speedway, taking April's Samsung 500 and November's Dickies 500 in 2008. And on Nov. 6, 2016 - exactly 11 years after his first victory at TMS - Edwards picked up the final win of his Cup Series career when he took the checkered flag in the rain-shortened AAA Texas 500.\nEdwards was also a two-time winner in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, having won the O'Reilly Auto Parts Challenge in November 2010 and the O'Reilly Auto Parts 300 in April 2011.\nGibbs will receive the Bruton Smith Legend Award for his leadership in his role as a championship-winning team owner. With more than 300 wins in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series, Gibbs has already solidified himself as one of the top owners in NASCAR history. He is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, winning three Super Bowls as head coach of the Washington Redskins. Joe Gibbs Racing has won four Cup Series championships, five championships in the Xfinity Series and has been successful at Texas Motor Speedway, earning seven total wins with four different drivers, including victories in three of the last five races. Gibbs is also the author of the New York Times Bestselling book \"Game Plan For Life\", which also is the name of his corresponding ministry (www.gameplanforlife.com).\nHarvick will be honored with the 2017 Racer of the Year Award after a pair of strong finishes in April and a drought-ending victory in the fall. A day after placing third in the My Bariatrics 300 NASCAR Xfinity Series race, Harvick led 77 laps and finished fourth in the O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race.\nLast November, Harvick returned to Fort Worth as a man on a mission. With only a road course win on his 2017 resume through 33 races, Harvick punched his ticket to the Championship 4 when he overtook Martin Truex Jr. with 10 laps to go and pulled away for the first Cup Series victory of his career in 30 starts at TMS.\nChristopher Bell could be well on his way to a NASCAR Xfinity Series championship in 2018, but it was the compassion he showed en route to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series championship in 2017 that earned him the Sportsmanship Award.\nCalling it \"a dream come true\" to finally win at his home track of Texas Motor Speedway in June of 2017, when Bell reached Victory Lane his initial thoughts were not about raising the trophy but the status of Timothy Peters, Austin Wayne Self and Johnny Sauter after the trio was involved in a violent white-flag wreck that forced the race to finish under caution.\nSaid Bell moments after arriving in Victory Lane: \"First off, I want to make sure everyone is okay. It's kind of a sorrow victory. ... That was a pretty bad flip and I've taken my fair share of flips and it hurts a lot worse whenever it's in the grass like that one was, so I hope he's (Peters) okay. That's the most important part.\"\nFor more information or to purchase tickets to the Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame Luncheon, call Speedway Children's Charities at (817) 215-8421 or visit www.scctexas.org.\nThe Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame, traditionally held during Texas Motor Speedway's spring NASCAR weekend, will revert back to that tradition in 2019.\nThe November NASCAR Playoffs weekend features the Camping World Truck Series JAG Metals 350 on Friday, Nov. 2; Xfinity Series O'Reilly Auto Parts 300 on Saturday, Nov. 3; and the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series AAA Texas 500 on Sunday, Nov. 4.\nFor more race information or to purchase tickets to the AAA Texas 500 tripleheader weekend, please visit www.texasmotorspeedway.com or call the speedway ticket office at (817) 215-8500.\n0 comments Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, Speedway Children\u2019s Charities, At the Track, Special Events",

        "raw_content": "'It will be special' - the biggest endurance race in the world is in Dublin this weekend\n2,600 athletes from all over the world will be on the start line for Ironman 70.3 Dublin on Sunday morning.\nBy Ryan Bailey Saturday 8 Aug 2015, 8:00 PM\nThe Ironman roadshow is in town.\nImage: Dublin City Council/Twitter\nAS RECENTLY AS May, the European Sport Tourism Summit heard of Ireland\u2019s potential to become a leading player in staging global sporting events and this weekend will provide more evidence of that.\nAthletes from all over the world have been arriving in Dublin in preparation for Sunday\u2019s Ironman triathlon and it\u2019s an event which organisers hope will enhance the reputation of Ireland as a sporting destination.\nThe staging of the Giro D\u2019Italia, and more recently the ICC World Twenty20 Qualifying tournament, have demonstrated Ireland\u2019s capacity to play host to large scale events but they\u2019ve been all too infrequent.\nTourism experts say Ireland has underachieved in a burgeoning industry worth as much as \u20ac450 billion globally and currently sits 60th in a list of countries ranked by their ability to attract major competitions.\nBut with the Women\u2019s Rugby World Cup coming to these shores in 2017 and now the arrival of the Ironman series to the capital, Ireland is fast becoming an appealing location for organisers.\nAs many as 40 countries will be represented on the start line on Sunday morning when participants \u2013 1,500 of which will be Irish \u2013 prepare to tackle a gruelling course.\nIt was announced Ironman would be coming to Dublin last year. Source: Shane O'Neill/Fennells\nThe 70.3 mile edition of the now world renowned Ironman race involves a 1.2 mile swim in D\u00fan Laoghaire bay, a 56 mile bike ride through the city and out into Maynooth and then a half-marathon culminating in the Phoenix Park.\n\u201cThese events are becoming part of the growing culture of Ireland,\u201d Kevin Stewart, Managing Director of Ironman UK and Ireland, told The42. \u201cThere\u2019s a huge sporting population who don\u2019t only get behind their own athletes but the event as a whole.\u201d\n\u201cTo have a pinnacle event in Dublin is really exciting for us and everyone was really keen to make it happen.\u201d\nFor the uninitiated, Ironman is an extreme version of triathlon and has become one of the fastest growing mainstream sports in the world. This weekend\u2019s version is half an Ironman.\nIt was once the activity of the super-fit and adrenaline junkies but the sport is now riding on the wave of enthusiasm in an age of healthy living and a booming modern fitness industry.\nIt's been a busy build day onsite at the Phoenix Park! We are getting very excited! #4moresleeps pic.twitter.com/4aD5Vgcu2I\n\u2014 IRONMAN Ireland (@IRONMAN_Ireland) August 5, 2015\nSource: Ironman 70.3 Dublin/Twitter\nThe swelling interest levels are reflected in the number of first time athletes (half of the field) competing in Ironman 70.3 Dublin while 19% of entrants are female. Moreover, the entry list was full after five hours of online registration.\n\u201cIronman started in Hawaii in 1978 with John Collins who decided to combine the three toughest disciplines \u2013 swim, bike and run \u2013 to find out who was the fittest athlete and that created the challenge,\u201d Stewart continued.\n\u201cAbout 15 people started it and it\u2019s grown over the last 36 years into something that really is an iconic kind of challenge for people and has inspired people to get fitter and to get involved in the three sports.\u201d\nNow over 200,000 people compete in an Ironman race every year. Twelve months ago, it was announced the world famous endurance race would be coming to Ireland but the planning for Sunday had started long before that.\nThe nature of the event makes the planning process a logistical challenge for all involved. Dublin City Council played a significant role in bringing Ironman to the capital and the surrounding counties and have been heavily involved in every stage of the operation.\nCompetitors face a gruelling course on Sunday through Dublin. Source: AP/Press Association Images\nJust like any marathon or triathlon, there will be a number of road closures in place throughout the day in order to accommodate the athletes and the large crowds expected to come out and watch.\n\u201cIn terms of organising these events, you\u2019ve got those basic logistics that you\u2019re trying to tie together a swim, cycle ride and then a run,\u201d Stewart adds. \u201cFinding good locations for all three is a challenge.\n\u201cWe looked at different routes with the City Council and the surrounding counties and we\u2019ve had a great reception from all of the different parties.\u201d\nWith races in over two dozen cities around the world, the significance of Ironman coming to Dublin cannot be understated. The large number of international participants reflects that and the value these events bring to the local economy is immeasurable.\n\u201cIn terms of economic input, we estimate it will be worth around \u20ac3-4 million to the area,\u201d Stewart explains. \u201cAlthough the number of international athletes means that should boost the figure.\n\u201cI think from that point of view, it encourages people to come to Ireland to take part in Ironman but also to stay for a few days and see the country while they\u2019re here.\u201d\nIt\u2019s another opportunity for Ireland to show off to a worldwide audience and further test the infrastructure in and around Dublin and its suburbs.\nThe starting gun will sound at 6.50am in Scotman\u2019s Bay, D\u00fan Laoghaire where the race will then move through the gears, quite literally, along the coast with the leading athletes expected to cross the finish line in the Phoenix Park around the four hour mark.\n2,600 athletes will take part in the race this Sunday. Source: David Maher/SPORTSFILE\nBut this isn\u2019t just an event for the professionals.\n\u201cPeople of all athletic ability will be taking part and it\u2019s going to be a great spectacle. In terms of time, there\u2019s going to be a huge difference between the leading parts of the field and those at the bottom but everyone\u2019s got that same goal - to cross that finish line.\n\u201cWe have the field now we just need to ensure people come out and support the athletes throughout their long day. One of the main things people find about the race is they\u2019re surprised what a spectacle it is,\u201d Stewart said.\n\u201cYou\u2019ll come out thinking you\u2019re going to stay for 10 minutes and you\u2019re still there three hours later cheering people on and getting behind it.\u201d\nLike the thousands who will line the streets on Sunday, Stewart hopes to have the chance to enjoy the world class sport with the iconic route in and out of Dublin acting as a truly spectacular backdrop.\n\u201cWhen we started the planning process for this, we envisaged Dublin delivering a global event of the highest quality. We jumped at the opportunity to come to Ireland and from our point of view, Sunday will be very special.\n\u201cOur goal for every race we put on is to see lots of very happy faces at the finish line and help athletes achieve their goal of completing an Ironman.\n\u201cBut this one feels a bit different because the famous Irish welcome will create an atmosphere on the route like we\u2019ve never experienced before.\u201d\nIronman 70.3 Dublin starts at 6.50am on Sunday morning.

        "title": "The Benedict Option In Trump\u2019s America | The American Conservative",
        "raw_content": "The Benedict Option In Trump\u2019s America\nChaos ahead (pespo/Shutterstock)\nEmma Green reports a fascinating story about non-orthodox Christians who are responding to the Trumpening by taking their version of the Benedict Option. Excerpts:\nFor the last eight years, Nicolas and Rachel Sarah have been slowly weaning themselves off fossil fuels. They don\u2019t own a refrigerator or a car; their year-old baby and four-year-old toddler play by candlelight rather than electricity at night. They identify as Christian anarchists, and have given an official name to their search for an alternative to consumption-heavy American life: the Downstream Project, with the motto to \u201cdo unto those downstream as you would have those upstream do unto you.\u201d\nAs it turns out, exiting the system is a challenging, time-consuming, and surprisingly technical process. Here in the Shenandoahs and central Virginia, a handful of tiny communities are experimenting with what it means to reject the norms of contemporary life and exist in a radically different way. They seem to share Americans\u2019 pervasive sense of political alienation, which arguably reached an apotheosis with the election of Donald Trump: a sense of division from their peers, a distrust of government. The challenges of modern politics\u2014dealing with issues like climate change, poverty, mass migration, and war on a global scale\u2014are so vast and abstract that it\u2019s difficult not to find them overwhelming. But instead of continuing in passive despair, as many Americans seem to do, the people in these communities decided to overhaul their lives.\nThese communities show just how hard it is to live without fossil fuels, a government safety net, or a system of capitalist exchange. They struggle with many of the same issues that plague the rest of America, including health problems, financial worries, and racism. At the center of their political lives is a question that every American faces, but for them, it\u2019s amplified: whether to save the world or let it burn.\nTheir answers are different, but they share one thing. They\u2019ve seen what modern American life looks like. And they want out.\nThe Christian anarchist green couple discovered something interesting:\nAs they\u2019ve built their project, they have also found themselves caught between two worlds. \u201cAmong people who are wanting to live the same lifestyle\u2014being fossil-fuel free\u2014there is a lot of push against Christianity,\u201d Rachel Sarah said. \u201cIt\u2019s almost like anything is okay except Christianity, because that\u2019s oppressive.\u201d\nThey\u2019re hopeful that Trump\u2019s election will spur more people to think critically about their lives. \u201cTimes like this really awaken people,\u201d said Rachel Sarah. \u201cSince [the election], we\u2019ve started to feel really hopeful.\u201d Trump\u2019s election left Nicolas feeling sick to his stomach, he said, but he sees an upside. \u201cWhen there\u2019s a Democrat in power, social-justice-minded people go to sleep, because they feel validated by what they hear on NPR,\u201d he said. The couple says they\u2019re feeling more \u201cawake\u201d now, too. Trump\u2019s election is \u201clike a crescendo for the Christian anarchist call,\u201d Nicolas said. \u201cIf we are citizens of another kingdom, and the empire is getting pretty ridiculous, it inspires us to take our convictions more seriously.\u201d\nRead the whole thing. The folks in the story live in bona fide communes, which is not something that I\u2019m interested in doing, or capable of pulling off at this stage in my family\u2019s life. The Benedict Option \u2014 the book, I mean, which I hope you\u2019ll pre-order \u2014 does not call for intentional communities, though it certainly welcomes small-o orthodox Christians taking that route if they can make it work. I see it as more workable for Christians to do like the Tipi Loschi, the lay Catholics of San Benedetto del Tronto, Italy, who all live in their normal houses and apartments in the city, but come together for school, Bible study, mass, community meals, sports activities, service work, and other things. Marco Sermarini, their leader, texted this photo over the weekend:\nvia Marco Sermarini\nIt\u2019s the \u201cStudium Sanctae Luciae,\u201d a university-level study course within the community. On this day, they were studying what St. Thomas Aquinas has to say about suicide and euthanasia. Marco says that Father Cassian Folsom, who recently retired as the abbot of the Norcia monastery, is helping them launch this initiative. Gang, I cannot wait for The Benedict Option to hit bookstores so you can meet these Christians in Italy. They are ordinary people, not communards, but they are living together in real community, and doing all kinds of real and important things to strengthen their faith contra modernity. They\u2019re not just talking about it; they\u2019re making it happen.\nThe people in Green\u2019s story are not all Christians. All of them are greens, though. What they have in common is having given up on normal activism as a way of changing things. They have been inspired by a 2012 essay by Paul Kingsnorth in Orion, in which he said:\nAnd so I ask myself: what, at this moment in history, would not be a waste of my time? And I arrive at five tentative answers:\nOne: Withdrawing. If you do this, a lot of people will call you a \u201cdefeatist\u201d or a \u201cdoomer,\u201d or claim you are \u201cburnt out.\u201d They will tell you that you have an obligation to work for climate justice or world peace or the end of bad things everywhere, and that \u201cfighting\u201d is always better than \u201cquitting.\u201d Ignore them, and take part in a very ancient practical and spiritual tradition: withdrawing from the fray. Withdraw not with cynicism, but with a questing mind. Withdraw so that you can allow yourself to sit back quietly and feel, intuit, work out what is right for you and what nature might need from you. Withdraw because refusing to help the machine advance\u2014refusing to tighten the ratchet further\u2014is a deeply moral position. Withdraw because action is not always more effective than inaction. Withdraw to examine your worldview: the cosmology, the paradigm, the assumptions, the direction of travel. All real change starts with withdrawal.\nTwo: Preserving nonhuman life. The revisionists will continue to tell us that wildness is dead, nature is for people, and Progress is God, and they will continue to be wrong. There is still much remaining of the earth\u2019s wild diversity, but it may not remain for much longer. The human empire is the greatest threat to what remains of life on earth, and you are part of it. What can you do\u2014really do, at a practical level\u2014about this? Maybe you can buy up some land and rewild it; maybe you can let your garden run free; maybe you can work for a conservation group or set one up yourself; maybe you can put your body in the way of a bulldozer; maybe you can use your skills to prevent the destruction of yet another wild place. How can you create or protect a space for nonhuman nature to breathe easier; how can you give something that isn\u2019t us a chance to survive our appetites?\nThree: Getting your hands dirty. Root yourself in something: some practical work, some place, some way of doing. Pick up your scythe or your equivalent and get out there and do physical work in clean air surrounded by things you cannot control. Get away from your laptop and throw away your smartphone, if you have one. Ground yourself in things and places, learn or practice human-scale convivial skills. Only by doing that, rather than just talking about it, do you learn what is real and what\u2019s not, and what makes sense and what is so much hot air.\nFour: Insisting that nature has a value beyond utility. And telling everyone. Remember that you are one life-form among many and understand that everything has intrinsic value. If you want to call this \u201cecocentrism\u201d or \u201cdeep ecology,\u201d do it. If you want to call it something else, do that. If you want to look to tribal societies for your inspiration, do it. If that seems too gooey, just look up into the sky. Sit on the grass, touch a tree trunk, walk into the hills, dig in the garden, look at what you find in the soil, marvel at what the hell this thing called life could possibly be. Value it for what it is, try to understand what it is, and have nothing but pity or contempt for people who tell you that its only value is in what they can extract from it.\nFive: Building refuges. The coming decades are likely to challenge much of what we think we know about what progress is, and about who we are in relation to the rest of nature. Advanced technologies will challenge our sense of what it means to be human at the same time as the tide of extinction rolls on. The ongoing collapse of social and economic infrastructures, and of the web of life itself, will kill off much of what we value. In this context, ask yourself: what power do you have to preserve what is of value\u2014creatures, skills, things, places? Can you work, with others or alone, to create places or networks that act as refuges from the unfolding storm? Can you think, or act, like the librarian of a monastery through the Dark Ages, guarding the old books as empires rise and fall outside?\nThe whole essay is here. Again, Kingsnorth is a green who writes for greens. How would we adapt his basic stance as those who may or may not be greens, but who are more interested in preserving the cultural ecology of Christianity in a technology-mad world that is as hostile to it as it is to the natural world? This is the challenge of the Benedict Option. This is what we have to start working on, now.\nWhat I\u2019m asking here is how would you re-write Nos. 2, 3, and 4 to address the threat to orthodox Christian culture that Kingsnorth sees to the environment? For example, when Kingsnorth calls on greens to \u201cpreserve nonhuman life,\u201d then prescribes \u201crewilding\u201d settled places, a Ben Op way to interpret that would be to preserve and restore artifacts of traditional Christian culture that have been pushed to the margins of extinction by modernity. Kingsnorth asks fellow environmentalists: \u201cHow can you create or protect a space for nonhuman nature to breathe easier; how can you give something that isn\u2019t us a chance to survive our appetites?\u201d The Ben Op version of that question might be: \u201cHow can you create or protect a space for expressions of traditional Christian culture (e.g., prayers, liturgies, art, customs and practices, literature, etc.) to breathe easier; how can you give some aspect of Christian culture that wasn\u2019t invented in the last 100 years a chance to survive our appetites?\u201d\nNo. 3, \u201cGetting your hands dirty\u201d \u2014 that\u2019s easy to translate into a Ben Op idiom. Kingsnorth writes,\nGround yourself in things and places, learn or practice human-scale convivial skills. Only by doing that, rather than just talking about it, do you learn what is real and what\u2019s not, and what makes sense and what is so much hot air.\nThis is what the Tipi Loschi are doing: not just talking about what we can do to ensure the survival, even the thriving, of orthodox Christianity in the West during this a post-Christian era, but actually getting their hands dirty creating the spaces and institutions to make that happen. In this excerpt from The Benedict Option, Marco Sermarino gives an example of how the spirit of creative entrepreneurship played out in their community in the example of the Scuola Libera G.K. Chesterton that they started a few years ago:\nWhen he returned home, Marco told his wife they had to start a school. They had three months to do it. \u201cMany people thought I was crazy, and maybe I am, but we started on the fifteenth of September,\u201d Marco said. They had four students, two of them Sermarini children. Today there are seventy students in both a middle school and a high school.\nThe success of the Chesterton school inspired the Tipi Loschi to dream big. \u201cWhen we discovered that we could do one strange thing, we started to think about how many things we could do in an uncon- ventional way,\u201d says Sermarini. \u201cWe knew that we couldn\u2019t live a reg- ular life with a Christian coating, but had to change the roots.\u201d\nGoing against Italy\u2019s educational stream, the Tipi Loschi found not only success with their school but inspiration to be countercultural Christians in many other ways.\n\u201cMany times in this life you will think it\u2019s impossible to have any other kind of order,\u201d he continues. \u201cBut if you start changing things, and moving things where they are meant to be, and if you put God over all of it, then you will be amazed by how many things fall into place.\u201d\nElsewhere, Marco told me that not everything the community has tried has worked. They learn from those defeats and move on. The point is that they don\u2019t just sit around like a bunch of intellectual Christians theorizing; they get their hands dirty.\nNo. 4, \u201cInsisting that nature has a value beyond utility,\u201d is entirely consonant with a return to metaphysical realism (roughly, the idea that matter matters in the divine economy, that there is a divine order embedded in nature, and we can\u2019t just do whatever we want to with the created world \u2014 including our bodies.)\nSomeone said to me not long ago, \u201cWell, I guess Trump winning screws things up for the Benedict Option.\u201d It took me a second to understand where he was coming from. I told him by no means! People who think the Ben Op is a strategy for staying Christian under a Democratic president are unserious. Had any of the GOP candidates been elected, we still would have needed the Ben Op. That Trump is about to be our president ought to ramp up Ben Op concerns almost as high as they would have been under President Hillary Clinton. True, we might not have to worry as much about the Supreme Court as we would have under Hillary, but let\u2019s not kid ourselves: nearly every single day for the next four years, we\u2019re going to be waking up to a fresh mess. It is hard for me to believe that we are going to emerge from the Trump administration in a better place. A better place than if Hillary Clinton had been president? Probably. Maybe. But good grief, if saying, \u201cWelp, at least he\u2019s not Hillary\u201d is all it takes to distract you from the cultural decline and fragmentation consuming us, then you are not paying attention.\nYou should pay attention. Don\u2019t forget your Alasdair MacIntyre:\nIt is always dangerous to draw too precise parallels between one historical period and another; and among the most misleading of such parallels are those which have been drawn between our own age in Europe and North America and the epoch in which the Roman empire declined into the Dark Ages. Nonetheless certain parallels there are. A crucial turning point in that earlier history occurred when men and women of good will turned aside from the task of shoring up the Roman imperium and ceased to identify the continuation of civility and moral community with the maintenance of that imperium. What they set themselves to achieve instead often not recognizing fully what they were doing\u2014was the construction of new forms of community within which the moral life could be sustained so that both morality and civility might survive the coming ages of barbarism and darkness. If my account of our moral condition is correct, we ought also to conclude that for some time now we too have reached that turning point.\nHere\u2019s where I am on the Trump administration. I am glad he is becoming president, and not Hillary Clinton, mostly because religious liberty stands a better chance under his administration, but also because this progressive march towards using the government to tear down traditional religious and social structures will likely halt temporarily. That said, I am unwilling to see my sons go off to fight whatever wars Trump starts, and I have no faith that his administration will accomplish at best anything more than a slight slowdown in the inevitable. I would love to be proven wrong, but I don\u2019t think I will be. Trump is what he is, and what he is not is a restoration of any kind of traditional Christian cultural order. To be fair to Trump, he never claimed to be, but so many of my fellow conservative Christians, accustomed to looking on the GOP as the protectors of social conservatism, have convinced themselves that Trump is the answer.\nLook, we support Trump when he does things that are consonant with our values, and we oppose him when he does things that are not. But in every case, we have to use this time to prepare. These are not normal times. Think about what you\u2019re doing when you shore up the imperium instead of building up local forms of community that can withstand the imperium\u2019s overreach, and its dissolution. I\u2019m not a left-wing environmentalists, but Paul Kingsnorth and the left-wing environmentalists in Emma Green\u2019s story are onto something important.\nUPDATE: Wise advice from Peter Leithart. Excerpt:\nSelf-protection doesn\u2019t seem a high-minded political agenda. Christians are other-directed, and rightly so. But that can turn into political masochism: We defend everyone but ourselves. That\u2019s a practical problem, and also a theological mistake. Protecting Christian interests is a legitimate Christian interest. \u2026\nOne way to measure Trump\u2019s presidency is: Will believers be freer to be believers under Trump than they have been for the past twenty-five years? Will Trump threaten the tax-exempt status of Christian colleges and ministries that reject same-sex marriage? Or will he challenge the fascist regime of group-think and group-speech? It\u2019s pretty clear already: Trump may not share our convictions, but he shares our enemies. And that\u2019s not nothing.\nPosted in Culture war, Decline and Fall, Benedict Option, Weimar America, All Things Trump.

Duke, last year's champion, fell in the Sweet Sixteen to fifth-seeded Arizona, by almost as wide a margin.\nMore remarkable than the giants who've fallen are the lesser-known teams that have advanced far into the tournament. After beating the Hoyas, VCU went all the way to the Final Four\u2014making it one of the lowest-seeded teams in history to make it that far in the tournament. The team that beat VCU in the Final Four has had an even more impressive run: Butler University, an eighth seed, is about to make its second consecutive appearance in the championship game, this time against third-seeded University of Connecticut.\nThe success of both VCU and Butler this year, combined with Butler's strong performance last year, might leave tournament-watchers with the impression that \"Cinderella stories\"\u2014low-seeded teams that advance further in the tournament than expected\u2014are common. But despite these recent examples of low-seed advancement, stories like VCU's and Butler's are quite rare.

        "raw_content": "Ukraine\u2019s Successful Courtship of Trump\nTrump was convinced to sell lethal weapons to Ukraine thanks in part to a savvy charm offensive from Kiev\u2014but the deal may be more bark than bite.\nU.S. President Donald Trump meets with Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington, U.S., June 20, 2017Mykola Lazarenko / Ukrainian Presidential Press Service / Reuters\nThe United States completed its shipment of Javelin anti-tank missiles to Ukraine on Monday, finalizing a sale that was reluctantly approved by President Donald Trump in November. The deal was widely reported as a rebuke to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who annexed Crimea and invaded eastern Ukraine in 2014. \u201cThis decision \u2026 reflects our country\u2019s longstanding commitment to Ukraine in the face of ongoing Russian aggression,\u201d Republican Senator Bob Corker said late last year.\nBut the terms of the arrangement show it may be more bark than bite. The weapons \u201chave been delivered to a secure facility in Ukraine, not on the line of conflict,\u201d Kurt Volker, the U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine, told me. He did not elaborate further, but The Wall Street Journal reported in January that the weapons would be stored in training centers in western Ukraine that will be monitored by American soldiers.\nTrump has said repeatedly that \u201cno one is tougher on Russia\u201d than him. But his critics have accused him of challenging Putin only superficially. Shortly after the Trump administration expelled 60 Russian diplomats in March\u201448 of whom were actually intelligence officers, according to a State Department spokesperson\u2014the State Department acknowledged that the Kremlin would be allowed to refill the vacated positions. The Treasury Department recently sanctioned more than three dozen Russian oligarchs, officials, and entities who \u201cprofit\u201d from Russia\u2019s \u201cmalign activity\u201d and \u201ccorrupt system.\u201d But many of the sanctioned oligarchs had four months\u2019 notice to move their money, thanks to a list of Russia\u2019s wealthiest individuals released by the Treasury in January. That money might already be back in Russia. \u201cAs they say, \u2018a barking dog cannot hinder a caravan\u2019s journey,\u2019\u201d Putin told Russia\u2019s TASS news agency at the time. He mocked his own absence from the list. When UN Ambassador Nikki Haley announced new sanctions against Russia over its support for embattled Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, she was contradicted by the White House hours later.\n\u201cThere is confusion about the Putin-Trump relationship,\u201d Major General Volodymyr Havrylov, Ukraine\u2019s defense attach\u00e9 to the U.S., told me last month. \u201cAnd an element of unpredictability. But we believe in checks and balances in the United States.\u201d Former National-Security Adviser H.R. McMaster and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis pushed for Trump to approve the lethal weapons sale to Ukraine, according to Havyrlov and another U.S. official familiar with the deal who requested anonymity to discuss it freely. Trump was convinced, at least in part, by the fact that President Barack Obama\u2014to whom Trump frequently compares himself\u2014had balked at the sale. The official relayed a conversation between Trump and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko last year in which Trump asked why Obama had \u201cdone nothing when Russia invaded Crimea.\u201d (Obama sanctioned Russia over the incursion in 2014.)\nTrump, ever transactional, also wanted to make sure he was not giving away something for nothing. The U.S. official said it was emphasized to the president that this would be a sale, not a gift, and Poroshenko won favor with Trump by facilitating an $80 million coal deal\u2014the first between the U.S. and Ukraine\u2014that was politically expedient for both leaders. In February, Ukrainian Railways signed a $1 billion locomotive deal with GE Transportation. Trump had promised during the campaign to revitalize the U.S. rail industry. \u201cThe Trump administration is very much focused on jobs creation,\u201d said Daniel Vajdich, the president of the strategic advisory firm Yorktown Solutions. \u201cSo, naturally, Ukraine has thought about its ability to help create jobs for Americans in the context of creating leverage by feeding into Trump\u2019s policy desires.\u201d A Ukrainian-American lobbyist who spoke to me on condition of anonymity put it more bluntly: \u201cPoroshenko has become a hostage of Trump,\u201d he told me.\nIn June of 2017, Poroshenko attempted to pique the administration\u2019s interest in helping to end the war in Ukraine by offering U.S. construction firms 90 percent of all contracts to repair and rebuild infrastructure in the disputed Donbass region, according to the Russian newspaper Kommersant. It is unclear how Trump responded to the pitch, which was made to Vice President Mike Pence, former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, and Mattis at the White House.\nThe Ukrainian government hired Haley Barbour, former Republican National Committee chairman and founding partner of BGR Group, to lobby in the United States just after Trump was elected, according to foreign-lobbying registration documents filed with the Justice Department. Ed Rogers, the chairman of BGR, was hired for the lobbying work, too. The firm has ties to this White House: The Trump transition team held meetings with lobbyists at BGR Group\u2019s offices, according to The Washington Post. And Rogers is \u201cas inner-circle Jeff Sessions as they come,\u201d a source with knowledge of their relationship told me on condition of anonymity, referring to Attorney General Jeff Sessions. (Both men are from Alabama.) BGR also worked with Corey Lewandowski, Trump\u2019s former campaign manager who still visits the White House regularly, as recently as last summer, The Daily Beast reported.\nVajdich, who previously worked on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee where he was in charge of regional issues in Europe and Eurasia, cautioned that it was unclear whether Kiev\u2019s engagement with the Trump administration\u2019s policy goals had \u201cfundamentally transformed\u201d Trump\u2019s attitude toward Ukraine. \u201cThe fact that the Russians have invaded a country in the heart of Europe in the 21st century is something that hasn\u2019t changed from one administration to the next,\u201d he said.\nIn the months following the weapons sale, Poroshenko ordered Ukraine\u2019s top anti-corruption prosecutor tasked with probing corruption under former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych to stop cooperating with Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort\u2019s work in Ukraine and ties to Russia, according to two sources familiar with the request. The New York Times first reported on that order on Wednesday, indicating that Kiev had blocked the Manafort investigations just as the Trump administration was finalizing the weapons deal in an attempt to stay on Trump\u2019s good side. Trump, according to the U.S. official, saw Manafort\u2019s legal problems as a function of Yanukovych\u2019s regime rather than a reflection of Poroshenko\u2019s.\nThe deal was a political victory for Poroshenko\u2014who is facing a tough reelection next March\u2014and for Trump, who has been accused of kowtowing to Russia. But it is still largely symbolic. \u201cIt\u2019s a political symbol that allows others to understand that Ukrainian security is important to the U.S.,\u201d Havrylov said. \u201cEven just the presence of weapons on Ukrainian soil is significant.\u201d Balazs Jarabik, a nonresident scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace whose research focuses on Ukraine, agreed. \u201cThis delivery symbolizes for Kiev the ongoing support of the U.S. for Ukraine, or actually an increased one as Obama never agreed with this step (what was proposed by the Pentagon).\u201d\nThe U.S. official defended the decision to store the weapons away from the battlefield, arguing that it will allow Ukraine to maintain greater control over them. Not everyone agrees that this is the best move, however. Michael Carpenter, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense with responsibility for Russia, Ukraine, Eurasia, and the Balkans, told me that \u201cstoring anti-tank missiles hundreds of miles from the front lines defeats the whole purpose of using these weapons as a deterrent\u201d and \u201cdrastically reduces their effectiveness.\u201d\n\u201cThe whole point is to make your adversary think twice about the numbers of casualties they might sustain as a result of their tanks coming under fire,\u201d Carpenter said. Vajdich acknowledged that the weapons were \u201cnot necessarily going to change the course of things on the ground.\u201d But he argued that, substantively, the Trump administration\u2019s policies have been \u201cgood\u201d for Ukraine. \u201cThere obviously was quite a bit of fear in Ukraine, when Trump took office, that there was going to be some kind of massive policy shift with regard to Ukraine and Russia,\u201d Vajdich said. The weapons deal, Vajdich argued, was evidence to the contrary. \u201cHis cabinet was pushing for this, and it was something that allowed him to counter this narrative that he is in bed with the Russians,\u201d Vajdich said. \u201cThat leads to fewer people pointing fingers at him.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "23-year-old letter rings true today\nDean Varner\nIn response to the guest column by John Sorensen of the Iowa Bankers Association (\u201cWhy Iowa\u2019s biggest credit union should start apologizing,\u201d Jan. 13), the following is from a letter I wrote to House Majority Leader Brent Siegrist 23 years ago:\n\u201cIt appears a perennial issue has surfaced again. I refer to the continuing effort by commercial bankers to increase credit union taxation.\n\u201cI managed the former Harnischfeger Employees Credit Union from 1969 to 1975. The bankers had already been harping on this subject for 30 years at that time. They\u2019re still gnawing on the same old bone.\n\u201cThey complain that credit unions offer many of the same services as banks. They piously wail that all they are asking for is a level playing field. They\u2019re comparing apples to oranges.\n\u201cBanks operate for profit. Bank directors make handsome salaries. Their priority is to make decisions that benefit their stockholders, not their customers.\n\u201cConversely, credit unions are nonprofit cooperatives. Their volunteer directors are unpaid. Credit unions exist to serve.\n\u201cThis is the main reason credit unions have lower operating costs. Bankers claim their expense of doing business is greater because they pay higher taxes. That\u2019s a smoke-screen. They charge more so they can compensate their directors and make profits for their stockholders.\n\u201cPlease don\u2019t give your endorsement to legislation that would have an adverse effect on the services the state\u2019s not-for-profit credit unions are providing for thousands of member/owners.\u201d",

Photograph: Christopher Furlong/PA\nHuman rights campaigners have challenged the prime minister in the high court, accusing her of abandoning the longstanding principle that members of the government should be bound by international law.\nIn a hearing in the court of appeal on Wednesday, campaigners from the Gulf Center for Human Rights (GCHR) argued that ministers had abandoned their commitment to abide by international law after quietly rewriting the ministerial code in 2015.\nThe code has been in existence since 1997 and sets out the standard of conduct expected by ministers.\nThe previous code, issued in 2010, said there was an \u201coverarching duty on ministers to comply with the law including international law and treaty obligations and to uphold the administration of justice and to protect the integrity of public life\u201d.\nIn the current version the sentence has been edited to say only that there was an \u201coverarching duty on ministers to comply with the law and to protect the integrity of public life\u201d.\nCritics have said changes to the code had far-reaching implications for the UK and its relationship with the rest of the world.\nGCHR brought the case against Theresa May and the Cabinet Office minister, David Lidington, after the Guardian revealed the edits to the ministerial code.\nKey issues affected by the change could include decisions about whether to go to war or use military force, any decision made by an international court about the UK and any laws not incorporated into English law, such as human rights legislation and the Geneva conventions, lawyers have said.\nWhile there was no dispute about the fact that ministers deleted the key clause from the 2015 version of the ministerial code Jonathan Crow QC, acting for the government, said there were no concrete examples of ministers no longer abiding by international law since removing the clause.\nLawyers express concern over ministerial code rewrite\nHowever, Jason Coppel QC, for GCHR, told the court that the government\u2019s change of the ministerial code was \u201csubstantive\u201d.\n\u201cThis can make a difference to individual cases in the future,\u201d he said. \u201cThey [ministers] have a connection with parts of the world where international obligations may be very important, such as Syria and Yemen.\u201d\nWhen the Guardian revealed the deletion, the Cabinet Office denied there was any intention to weaken international law and the administration of justice by omitting the phrases from the new code.\nBut lawyers for GCHR accused the then prime minister David Cameron of making changes to the code in secret, behind closed doors and without any public scrutiny despite its constitutional significance.\nDavid Cameron was the prime minister when the code was edited in 2015 to omit the reference to international law. Photograph: Peter Nicholls/Reuters\nSue Willman, a partner at Deighton Pierce Glynn which is representing GCHR, said: \u201cInternational law is vital not just for our government to be held to account but to ensure that their decisions do not suggest complicity with oppressive governments around the world.\u201d\nMelanie Gingell, a member of the GCHR advisory board, said: \u201cOver the past few years, the UK government has sought not only to downplay its own human rights obligations but also to wilfully ignore the violations of their allies in the Gulf. These are states that are systematically abusing their own people.\n\u201cThe ministerial code is vital to ensure that decisions by UK ministers do not contribute to those abuses. The phrase deleted underpinned the government\u2019s respect for human rights and international law on everything from torture, freedom of speech, respect for women\u2019s and children\u2019s rights to fighting corruption and bribery.\u201d",

Bringing to bear more than 25 years in the industry as a leader across property, workplace and change, he has worked for blue chip giants such as Sky, Rio Tinto and Warner Bros. In his regular appearances at industry events across the world and his influential online commentary, workessence.com Neil has addressed the need for a more flexible approach to workplace design, one that promotes both the needs of the individual and the aims of the organisation therefore reconciling the inevitable contradiction of office design.\nIn the last year, Neil has published his very well received book \u2018The Elemental Workplace\u2019, in which he set outs his manifesto to break down the creation of workplace into its essential elements and demystify the subject. Given the mandate of this book and also Neil\u2019s reputation for plain-speaking, Instant has invited him to give his views on some of the issues impacting flexible workspace.\nAs well as his work as an author, blogger and speaker on the workplace, Neil is also an Executive Consultant at Unispace www.unispace.com . Neil works with the Unispace team across the EMEA region, using his extensive occupier experience to develop corporate property, workplace and change strategies for global occupiers.\nIs the growth in demand for flex space a sustainable trend\u2026will it become the new normal and flex goes fully mainstream? And what does \u201cmainstream\u201d in this context actually mean?\nI think flex will form part of an overall strategy \u2013 along with a core space. It is actually what corporate real estate professionals have been demanding for decades \u2013 a combination of the certainty afforded by a core leased or owned facility, expressive of the brand of the organisation, and the ready availability of high-performing and engaging flexible space located nearby, as and when needed.\nIs the growth of flexible and serviced offices a manifestation of the \u201csubscription economy\u201d? And, if so, does it have the potential to irrevocably change the market (as we are seeing in the media, retail and travel sectors)?\nThe model has been with us for many years, but the available product has been limited in appeal and expensive. It is true for SMEs that the principles of collaborative consumption have made flex workspace an easier \u2018sell\u2019 but it is also true that the lack of movement on the part of landlords and developers in this direction created the need that was fulfilled by new entrants. The market has been created by a number of trends aligning.\nWill an office really need to look like an office in 10 years\u2019 time? Co-working spaces are integrating more and more design elements from hotels or other more lifestyle-orientated design. Do we really need the desk and chair set-up in its current form?\nThe desk is the tardigrade of the workplace \u2013 its survived for thousands of years. It works. Most organisations still treat the desk as the primary unit of workspace. The recent re-balancing of our approach to reflect the important of quiet, focussed work also stresses the need for this survivor.\nBoth landlords and FMs are now being asked to \u201ccurate\u201d spaces that provide an experience to those who work within them \u2013 are either party equipped with the requisite experience to undertake this new element of their role?\nSpace has always provided an experience, we just now talk of it as such. There is a distinct difference between curation and aggregation. We are familiar with \u201ccontent\u201d (the furniture, fixtures & equipment \u2013 FF&E) and \u201caggregation\u201d (sourcing it, and then putting it all into the space available \u2013 sometimes with thought applied, sometimes without), but not so much about \u201ccuration\u201d (understanding it, ascribing meaning to its functionality, making it all work in a space individually and collectively, now and over time).\nThe curator needs to understand the occupant, but also the content \u2013 design intent and ethos, historical development, purpose, possibilities and limitations. They need not only to be able to array the content as the occupant requires at present, or in a way that may lead them to opportunities, but be wired to constant feedback about performance and the relationship of the items to one another, and to the functionality required.\nIt is a deeper relationship and understanding that that we are accustomed to, one requiring a far higher level of listening, observation and interaction, an appreciation of the context and journey, and an ability to weave it all together to enable others to understand and learn from it.\nFor the curator, to make a valued contribution they need to be able to change, adapt and mould the space, and to tell the story of the space for others to learn from. It is an evolution of the role and the skills required \u2013designer, commissioner, interpreter and manager \u2013 combined, extended and enriched.\nSo, are landlords and FMs sufficiently skilled and experienced to curate? It is doubtful at present \u2013 but it is not beyond the bounds to develop an awareness of what curation is, and how to curate. As an industry we all need to understand what these terms mean before we use them as though we do.\nAs the role of the workplace expert evolves beyond FM, how will the growth of flex space impact the \"Head of RE\" in the future and their department?\nWorkplace and FM are both components of what we usually call \u2018Corporate Real Estate\u2019 and represent phases of the property life cycle. The workplace expert role has been clearly established for many years, and it is now up to FM to broaden its knowledge and experience in this area and in other aspects of real estate such as strategy and transaction management.\nAt the same time the boundaries between many support functions \u2013 including real estate and workplace \u2013 are blurring.\nSmaller organisations can rarely justify a CRE role and so this question really applies to larger organisations. For them, the ability to manage a \u2018core and flex\u2019 approach will be vital. This involves retaining and developing existing skills, while developing new: but any CRE professional who hasn\u2019t been doing that all their career will find the emergent world somewhat alien.\nAs the amount of \u201cSpace as a Service\u201d increases, how will the conventional real estate market respond? Is the future growth market really about the supply chain and changing the way we buy services? How far can an outsourced model go in this area of the market?\nThe future for flexible space is enterprise \u2013 large scale occupiers. The SME market has been well and truly tapped. The struggle for enterprise clients will be between differentiated and homogenised product. While the latter can be delivered at speed and scale, by virtue of this it can only offer limited tailoring or personality. The workplace is part of an organisation\u2019s culture and not external to it, and so the need for expression of its DNA will not diminish.\nThere is still an opportunity for the conventional market to offer something different, but the detachment that characterised its approach for many decades has to be jettisoned. It is now over to the conventional market to be the challenger. It\u2019s going to have to demonstrate a dexterity we haven\u2019t seen from it yet of it wants to survive.\nWhat do you think is wrong with the current design approach to flex space and co-working? And \u2013 based on the growth of flex spaces - they must be doing something right, so what are they getting right?\nEverything in workplace has to exist in balance. The design focus in flex spaces has tended toward open, collaborative and social spaces, borrowing influences from domestic and leisure environments to create spaces that are engaging and inspiring. It now needs to inject a focus on functionality, ergonomics and effectiveness to complement the aesthetic. Acoustics have been little more than an afterthought, and no-one wants to be confined to a tiny padded cell when they need to make a call or concentrate.",

        "raw_content": "Mexico, Canada and other countries may be exempted from tariffs as Trump softens on steel\nExemptions would be on a \u2018case by case\u2019 basis, a reversal from the policy articulated by the White House\nCanadian steel may be spared from US President Donald Trump\u2019s planned tariffs for the metal under national security \u2018carve-outs\u2019. Peter Power / Reuters\nThe White House said on Wednesday that Mexico, Canada and other countries may be spared from President Donald Trump\u2019s planned steel and aluminium tariffs under national security \u2018carve-outs\u2019, a move that could soften the blow amid threats of retaliation by trading partners and dire economic warnings from lawmakers and business groups.\nPress secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters the exemptions would be made on a \u201ccase by case\u201d and \u201ccountry by country\u201d basis, a reversal from the policy articulated by the White House just days ago that there would be no exemptions to Trump\u2019s plan.\nThe update came as congressional Republicans and business groups braced for the impact of expected tariffs of 25 per cent on imported steel and 10 per cent on aluminium, appearing resigned to additional protectionist trade actions as Trump signalled upcoming economic battles with China. Trump is expected to announce the tariffs on Thursday afternoon.\nThe looming departure of White House economic adviser Gary Cohn, a former Goldman Sachs executive who has opposed the promised tariffs, set off anxiety among business leaders and investors worried about a potential trade war.\n\u201cWe urge you to reconsider the idea of broad tariffs to avoid unintended negative consequences to the US economy and its workers,\u201d wrote 107 House Republicans in a letter to the president.\nAt the White House, officials were working to include language in the tariffs that would give Mr Trump the flexibility to approve exemptions for certain countries.\n\u201cHe\u2019s already indicated a degree of flexibility, I think a very sensible, very balanced degree of flexibility,\u201d commerce secretary Wilbur Ross told CNBC. \u201cWe\u2019re not trying to blow up the world.\u201d\nMr Trump said other trade actions could be in the works. In a tweet, he said the \u201cUS is acting swiftly on Intellectual Property theft.\u201d A White House official said the president was referencing an ongoing investigation of China in which the US trade representative is studying whether Chinese intellectual property rules are \u201cunreasonable or discriminatory\u201d to American business.\nThe official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations, said an announcement on the findings of the report \u2014 and possible retaliatory actions \u2014 was expected within the next three weeks.\nBusiness leaders, meanwhile, continued to sound the alarm about the potential economic fallout from tariffs, with the president of the US Chamber of Commerce raising the spectre of a global trade war. That scenario, Tom Donohue said, would endanger the economic momentum from the GOP tax cuts and Mr Trump\u2019s rollback of regulations.\n\u201cWe urge the administration to take this risk seriously,\u201d Mr Donohue said.\nMr Trump has said the tariffs are needed to reinforce lagging American steel and aluminium industries and protect national security. He has tried to use the tariffs as leverage in ongoing talks to revise the North American Free Trade Agreement (Nafta), suggesting Canada and Mexico might be exempted from tariffs if they offer more favourable terms under Nafta.\nLawmakers opposed to the tariffs, including House speaker Paul Ryan and Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell, have suggested more narrowly focused approaches to target Chinese imports. But members of Congress have few tools at their disposal to counter the president, who has vowed to fulfil his campaign pledge.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think the president is going to be easily deterred,\u201d said Senator John Cornyn, who has suggested hearings on the tariffs.\nSenator Lamar Alexander, a fellow Republican, said Mr Trump had listened to him and others who disagree with the direction of the trade policies. \u201cI thank him for that and he\u2019s been a good listener. The difficulty is so far I haven\u2019t persuaded him,\u201d Mr Alexander said.\nRepublicans in Congress have lobbied administration officials to reconsider the plan and focus the trade actions on China, warning that allies such as Canada and members of the European Union would retaliate.\nThe EU said it was prepared to respond to any tariffs with counter-measures against US products such as Harley-Davidson motorcycles, Levi\u2019s jeans and bourbon.",

        "raw_content": "Image: Noclip\nWhy \u201cBig Government\u201d is Not the Problem\nEric Daniels February 20, 2013 AudioPDF In The Objective Standard, Spring 2013\nIn his 1996 State of the Union Address, President Bill Clinton confronted the problem of how the United States could continue making economic opportunities available to all Americans in the midst of a growing world economy with rapidly changing technology and robust competition from abroad. Many on the left had called for government to expand its role in the economy and to provide jobs and protection for Americans who felt that opportunities were bypassing them. In a masterstroke of political re-branding, Clinton instead announced that \u201cbig government does not have all the answers\u201d and that \u201cthe era of big government is over.\u201d1\nThe now-famous speech sparked an interesting, if ultimately hollow, debate about the proper size of government. Politicians and pundits on the left alleged that Clinton took the position for purely political reasons, coming as it did in an election year when he would win a second term in office. Many on the right hailed the move at the time\u2014only to lament the continuation of \u201cbig government\u201d as changing world events, including 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis, seemed to underscore the necessity of \u201cbig government\u201d once again. Now, a decade and a half later, President Obama and Congress bicker over fiscal cliffs and debt ceilings, and federal and state politicians continue to bloat budgets, increase spending, and raise taxes. Arguments about \u201cbig government\u201d and its ills have returned with a vengeance, but, at its root, the discussion is misguided.\nThe idea of \u201cbig government\u201d has been vague and imprecise since its introduction to the English lexicon in the 1920s.2 Those who use it leave the term undefined and throw it around as a rhetorical joust, counting on what everyone who is against the idea seems to \u201cknow\u201d\u2014that \u201cbig government\u201d is bad\u2014yet no one can specify how big is too big or even what \u201cbig\u201d means in this context.\nWe who wish to defend liberty need to dispense with the shibboleth of \u201cbig government.\u201d Size is not an essential aspect of government\u2019s propriety or impropriety. The proper measure of government concerns its function. A government\u2014or any aspect thereof\u2014is good or bad depending on whether it is directed toward the proper end of government: the protection of individual rights by means of banning physical force from social relationships. Insofar as size matters at all, its significance lies in whether a given government or department or program is the optimal size for the ultimate purpose of protecting rights.\nTo begin making this clear, consider an analogy. A doctor observes that a patient\u2019s weight has been increasing steadily for some months. The doctor announces that either a weight-loss diet or weight-reduction surgery will be necessary. The growth, he says, must not only be stopped; it must be reversed, and the patient returned to a previous size.\nIs the doctor right? . . .\nGovernment Should Not \u201cDetermine Everything\u201d about Education; It Should Determine Nothing about It\nTo Give Americans a \u201cFair Shot,\u201d Obama Should Stop Violating Our Rights\nAbout Eric Daniels\nEric Daniels earned his PhD in history from the University of Wisconsin in 2001.

        "raw_content": "T-Mobile and Sprint Finally Agree to Merge Companies\nFeatured Posts, News, Press Releases\nNews came today that T-Mobile and Sprint providers have finally agreed to merge companies. The third and fourth largest mobile providers in the U.S. intend to merge in a $26 billion deal that will leave only three mobile providers. The combined companies will be known under the T-Mobile name, headed by current T-Mobile CEO John Legere.\nThis is not the first time a deal has been discussed; in 2014, the two companies proposed a similar merger that was denied by the FCC. It was concluded that four major cellphone providers makes for a more consumer-friendly marketplace. However, under the current administration and the FCC headed by Republican chairman Ajit Pai, the two companies are more determined to finalize a successful merge. Still, it is unclear whether the deal will be approved or not.\nAs the third and fourth largest providers beneath AT&T and Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint would have roughly 100 million customers combined. Additionally, they cite progress towards 5G as another reason for the merge. The burden of increased investment in the new, 5G infrastructure could be lessened by joining forces. While this might aid their successful competition with Verizon and AT&T, the question still stands as to whether or not this decision is anti-consumer. It is unclear what the FCC will conclude about this deal, but conclusions brought forth from the 2014 case are still valid \u2013 more providers means more competition, and better prices for consumers.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb The Secret Series \u00bb The Name of this Book is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch\nWhy bother? Warnings will not stop you from reading this anyways.\nThere is a perk when a book\u2019s name is secret \u2013we can name it however we like. Besides, it was written by a person under a false name. The catch is, since we\u2019ve read it and named it, we also have to share in keeping its secrets. Or not, if we like treading on the edge and dipping a toe in the waters.\nThe author took his time giving an ample warning on whoever opened this book. He said that it is for our own safety that we don\u2019t read it at all. And he never fails interjecting this same warning throughout the story. It was really very considerate of him, but there\u2019s no stopping a curious reader. Really.\n\u201cGenerally speaking, books don't cause much harm. Except when you read them, that is. Then they cause all kinds of problems.\u201d\nOur two very unlikely protagonists are Cass and Max-Ernest, both are very peculiar, too. Cass believes herself as a survivalist; she carries a survival-equipped backpack every time, and has a penchant in warning people of any probable (and improbable) danger around. But for a survivalist, she is quite impulsive. Meanwhile, Max-Earnest is a chatterbox. He has a long-winded explanation on why his name is Max-Ernest; and why his parents lives apart in the same house, apparently driving him crazy with their parenting rivalry, which earned him sessions with different shrinks. And in spite of his poor attempts in humor, he is really smart. Bosch sure knows how to make his characters extra special.\nTheir collaboration was born of curiosity and affinity for having no other peers. Their adventure started with a mysterious box called The Symphony of Smells which was part of the artifacts found in a late magician\u2019s house. Curiosity led them investigating the said house and bumped into our villains, Dr. L and Mrs. Mauvais. Whatever they are looking for, Cass and Max-Ernest got away with it. That's not the end of it though, sooner than they expected, these two villains struck again and abducted a boy from their school; Cass then set out for a rescue mission.\nI really love the tone of this book, its friendly way of narrating, while being mysterious enough to keep the reader\u2019s attention. The characters are charming and humorous. The plot is nothing new, but it still offers something unique and interesting. I thought that the family sets featured here were great and something we can learn from. I recommend this book (and its series) to those of you who like adventures, heroic characters, and solving mysteries. And even if you are only a third of that, I\u2019m sure you\u2019re curious enough to read this.\n\u201cFor the magician's story, you must have all your wits about you. No wandering minds allowed.\u201d\nTitle: The Name of this Book is Secret\nSeries: The Secret Series (#1)\nPublisher: Little and Brown\nAwards: Pennsylvania Young Readers' Choice Award 2011\nLynai November 19, 2013 at 8:46 AM\nOooooh.

        "raw_content": "While working with Uber eats, I drove through the town of Folsom, California and stopped at a red light. In the distance I saw a sign across the street that I will never forget. This sign read \"Negro Bar Picnic Area\" with an arrow pointing across the bridge. Mind you, the sign was only a couple feet in front of another bar called \"The Cliff House of Folsom.\"\nWhen I saw this, my first thought was \"WHAT THE HECK!?\" Does this mean the bar behind it was a whites only bar and across the way was for the negros? I was so confused, shocked, angry, putdown, sad, hurt, disrespected and in disbelief. I couldn't believe that I had actually seen a sign that read \"Negro Bar.\" Maybe because I prefer not to be called a negro in this day and age.\nWhen I saw that sign, I IMMEDIATELY felt uncomfortable, my stomach started hurting, I rolled up my windows and made sure I looked in my mirrors every 10 seconds. I couldn't wait to find the nearest freeway out of that town.\nOnce I got home, I looked into this straightforward racist name for a state-run park, and found out a couple things. According to the California Department of Education, gold was first discovered by James Marshall at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California back in January 1848. By the end of the year, over 10,000 miners had arrived. But African American immigrants were the first to mine in that area, making this park originally California's first Black gold mining site.\nWhen I searched KCRA.com, I found six San Francisco Chronicle articles from 1900-1930 that refer to the settlement by the gravel bar not as \"Negro Bar,\" but rather as the inflammatory \"(N-word) Bar.\" Sometime in late 1920s to early '30s, the paper apparently decided to stop using the pejorative term in favor of \"Negro Bar.\"\nAfter reading about the history of the area, I am proud of the park. I totally understand the name it was called back in the 1800's and why they changed it in the early 1900's. But now the name Negro Bar has to go. The word negro isn't even allowed on federal forms, but it's still a name of a state park? Why can't this name be changed to something like Black Bar, or possibly name it after one of the men who first started mining there?\nI find this name totally offensive, not only because its located in a predominantly White neighborhood, but because this is such an out-of-date and offensive name. This park is so beautiful and many people enjoy it. I just hate that this park that was meant to honor African American miners, still has to be called offensive name.\nPlease sign this petition to demand that we have a more decent celebratory name for this park other than Negro Bar.",

You also wouldn't be alone if you spent some nights doing some things that definitely made you feel like you weren't quite as innocent as you once were.\nNow just imagine if some of your raunchiest or wildest moments were caught on camera, or if every time you got yourself in cuffs, that the world would never forget. That's the life of a celebrity and as you'll read below, these are 15 child stars who absolutely felt the weight of growing up under the spotlight and engaged in various shocking moments.\nWhether it was getting into some adult situations in front of the camera and getting the footage leaked like Kaley Cuoco, entering the adult film industry like another star on our list, the partying lifestyle of Jodie Sweetin or Lindsay Lohan or you know, Miley being Miley, we're sure you'll be entertained as you read about the variety of situations that have landed these stars a spot on the list.\n15 Demi Lovato - Needed A Hit Every 30 Minutes\nDemi Lovato may have rocked out with the big purple dinosaur on Barney, but Barney definitely wasn't coming to save her from her wicked drug addiction that hindered her life.\nDemi has since cleaned up since spending some time in rehab, but when talking about the height of her addiction she admitted,\n\"I couldn\u2019t go 30 minutes to an hour without [using] and I would bring it on airplanes. I would smuggle it basically and just wait until everyone in first class would go to sleep and I would do it right there.\"\nYou can imagine that photo would have sold for quite a bit at the tabloid magazines!\n14 Miley Cyrus - Racy Photos, Partying Lifestyle\nNEW YORK, NY - OCTOBER 08: Miley Cyrus attends Miley Cyrus' Official Album Release Party for \"Bangerz\" at The General on October 8, 2013 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for The General)\nIf you Google the name Miley Cyrus and partying, you aren't going to have to look very hard to find some photos of Cyrus getting her drank on, smoke on or any other variety of illicit drugs.\nOn top of the fact that Cyrus isn't exactly afraid to take off her clothes, whether for fun or for professional photo shoots.\nWhen talking about her drug habits, Cyrus said,\n\"I think marijuana is the best drug on earth. One time I smoked a joint with peyote in it, and I saw a wolf howling at the moon,\" so to say she is open about it may be an understatement!\nDefinitely not the innocent girl we once saw on Hannah Montana.\n13 Lindsay Lohan - Arrests, Rehab, Racy Photos And Partying\nJuly 14, 2014: Lindsay Lohan is seen falling down while attending the Ischia film festival in Ischia, Italy. She is helped up by her bodyguard. Mandatory Credit: INFphoto.com Ref: infit-09|sp|U.S. SALES ONLY.\nWhere do you get started with Lindsay Lohan? How about the fact that she's been in handcuffs more times than anyone would like (and not always for the fun reasons), or the fact that there are several photos out there of her that proves that alcohol makes it tough to stand. Which also helps explain the fact that she's familiar with the inside of a rehab facility.\nThen you also have that came out in 2014 which revealed that Lohan (while drunk of course), had written on a piece of paper a list of 36 people that she did some very \"not innocent\" things with.\nOn the list were Heath Ledger, Colin Farrell, and Justin Timberlake to name a few!\n12 Macaulay Culkin - Substance Related Arrest And Partying\nYou wouldn't be alone if anytime the Christmas season comes around you bust out some Home Alone and transport back to your childhood.\nFor Culkin however, that was clearly the highlight of his acting career and his adult life has been marked by partying and drug use, including getting arrested for marijuana possession.\nIt was also reported that when Culkin was working as a DJ that every month the club held a party in his honor, and while that is pretty awesome, it's definitely a sign of someone who gets up to some pretty non-innocent situations.\n11 Drew Barrymore - Drugs, Rehab And Racy Photos\nDrew may have stolen everyone's heart in the movie E.T, but her real life childhood was a lot more tragic. She battled both alcohol and drug addiction and spent two stints in rehab, the first trip which included 18 months at an institution for those who are mentally ill.\n\"When I was 10 \u00bd, I was sitting in a room with a group of young adults who were smoking pot. I wanted to try some, and they said, 'Sure. Isn't it cute, a little girl getting stoned?' Eventually that got boring, and my addict mind told me, 'Well, if smoking pot is cute, it'll also be cute to get the heavier stuff like cocaine.' It was gradual. What I did kept getting worse and worse, and I didn't care what anybody else thought,\" said Barrymore when talking about her addictions.\nIf that isn't \"losing your innocence\" enough, you can also factor in that she also posed for Playboy!\n10 Jodie Sweetin - Severe Substance Addiction\nPeople magazine's 'Ones to Watch' Party - Arrivals Featuring: Jodie Sweetin Where: Los Angeles, California, United States When: 16 Sep 2015 Credit: FayesVision/WENN.com\nJodie Sweetin may have been sweet (heh) on Full House, but in real life Sweetin's biggest sweet tooth was tracking down her next hit of drugs.\nSweetin admitted that she got hooked on drinking after the filming wrapped when she was 14 years old and that it didn't take long until she was experimenting with harder drugs; including but not limited to crack, ecstasy and methamphetamine.\nSweetin opened up about this part of her life in her book Unsweetined,\n\"I was always up for any party, especially if it involved Las Vegas. One weekend, everyone decided to head out to Vegas, but before I could leave, I had to get cash from the bank since I had misplaced my ATM card. I took out $10,000 in cash to bring with me to bankroll the alcohol and drugs for everyone.\"\nThat's definitely enough money to have a serious night out!\n9 Vanessa Hudgens - Leaked Photos On Several Occasions\nVanessa Hudgens bummed around on a few television shows before getting her big-screen debut in the movie Thirteen. It wasn't long after that, that she got one of the lead roles of High School Musical and her start to fame was well on its way.\nAnd while Hudgens has had some roles on the risqu\u00e9 side, her innocence was permanently removed when her intimate photos were leaked on the internet in 2007.\nThen, it happened again in 2009 and it happened once more back in 2011.\nWhen talking about the incident, Hudgens said,\n\"With the Internet these days, you don\u2019t have a personal life. Nothing is private: Everyone knows everything, and they can find out everything about you. You\u2019re not as safe as you think you are,\" and stated that the incident was traumatizing.\n8 Shia LaBeouf - Several Arrests Including DUI\nHis first brush with the \"adult world\" came when he was arrested back in 2005 after getting into a fight with his neighbor, hitting him with his car and then later showed up at his house with a kitchen knife.\nLaBeouf was also charged with a DUI after a car accident in 2008 that also badly damaged his hand and required several surgeries.\nLastly, LaBeouf entered a treatment program for alcoholism in 2014 after an incident that including him using \"impolite slurs\" and swearing at the officers who came to ask him to leave a theater after he was being loud and acting disorderly.\n7 Kaley Cuoco - Leaked Photos\nIf you went back and saw Kaley Cuoco on the television series Alley Cats Strike, you definitely would agree that she is far from the innocent girl that the Disney Channel Original Movie loved.\nGranted she doesn't appear to have been heavy into drugs or drinking, but when it comes to keeping your innocence one thing that doesn't help your case is having leaked photos of you emerge online in your birthday suit!\nThen you also have the fact that Cuoco is constantly rocking some cleavage whether out for a night on the town or on Big Bang Theory and you have a child star that is definitely all grown up.\n6 Amanda Bynes - Arrests Including DUI + Throwing Bong Out A Window\nWhen you are out getting your drink on to a significant level with your buddies, one of the last things you should think about doing is going for a drive after. Sadly for Amanda Bynes, she didn't quite have that foresight and proved she was far from the innocent girl from All That when she decided to drink and then hit a police car.\nYikes, definitely not what you want. Bynes is definitely a menace behind the wheel, also being nabbed with various hit and run charges.\nNo stranger to partying, Bynes also came under fire in 2013 when she decided to throw a bong out of her 36th floor apartment window after police came knocking.\nBynes also spent time in a psychiatric facility following another DUI. While in the facility she also elected to tweet out that her father sexually assaulted her when she was younger, before recanting that and instead saying he made her say that by planting a microchip in her brain.\n5 Edward Furlong - Severe Addict, Physically Abused Partners\nEdward Furlong was pretty awesome in the movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day when he was only 14 years old, so maybe that's why by the time he was 15 years old he was hooking up with his 29-year-old tutor!\nIf that isn't \"grown up\" enough, you also have to factor in that Edward has gotten himself into hot water on several occasions, often getting arrested for domestic abuse and battled hard drugs including heroin and cocaine.\nIn 2006, Furlong opened up how he got clean \"I don't even think about [partying] anymore. It seems lonely now: running and clubbing and doing coke. I have nightmares about doing hard drugs. I'll wake up and I'm like, 'Did I relapse?'\"\n...but then in 2013 he was arrested and went to rehab for drug addiction, so clearly, it's a slippery slope for Furlong.\nPerhaps Arnold can come and motivate him!\n4 Emma Watson - Several Leaked Photos Released\nAnd when you look at Watson's everyday life, she seems to be relatively clean and outside of a few wardrobe malfunctions there's nothing that screams \"lack of innocence.\"\nThen she became the main target of a privacy violation which showed several photos of her with her wizarding robe (so to speak) left on the rack, and that's definitely one way to feel like your innocence has been taken away.\n3 Britney Spears - Rehab And Partying\nBritney Spears got her start out on The Mickey Mouse Club where her talent stood out and by the time she got older, it was definitely her appearance that was also catching the world by storm.\nWhile Spears has always kept her clothes to her body, there are no variety of photoshoots that show off Spears' body, not to mention the fact that she has her own lingerie line.\nSpears' innocence also went away with her various controversial moments, ranging but not limited to when she shaved her head, spent time in rehab and the various photos of her clearly getting her drink on!\n2 Alyssa Milano - No Shortage Of \"Clean\" Roles\nAlyssa Milano knows that you may not consider her the innocent girl that made a name for herself on Who's The Boss. In fact, towards the end of her run on the series, Milano was getting tired of the cookie-cutter life of a sitcom star.\nWhich meant that when she was able to choose what movies she wanted to appear in, she elected for several that feature her leaving her clothes on the floor. Though if Milano was in front of you without her clothes on, we're sure she would be the one who is the boss!\nThe good thing about Milano? Unlike a large portion of our list, she was able to keep herself free of the temptations of drinking and drugs.\n1 Jaimee Foxworth - Entered The Other Film Industry\nIf you were a fan of the television series Family Matters, you may remember Jaimee Foxworth as the character Judy Winslow.\nIf you are an adult entertainment fan, you may prefer to look her up under her adult name \"Crave\" (seriously, she went with CRAVE).\nFoxworth didn't appear in the industry for long, but battled drug and alcohol addiction prior and realistically during her time booty bumping.\nFoxworth turned her life around in 2008 after appearing on Celebrity Rehab and later finding out she was pregnant. While she may not be the biggest star on the list, she very well has had the biggest transition from child star to adult!",

        "raw_content": "Fears of path eroding\nRiver Tweed image - erosion - right of way\nSt Boswells community councillors are expected to debate worries that one of the area\u2019s most popular dog walking routes is under threat.\nIn a 2008 public vote organised by Hill\u2019s Pet Nutrition and national tourism bodies in Scotland, England and Wales, the section of the 62-mile St Cuthbert\u2019s Way, which takes in a stretch of river banking along the Tweed near Mertoun bridge, was voted one of the UK\u2019s top 21 dog walking routes.\nWalkers can do all or just part of the route, which starts and finishes in St Boswells and can take up to one-and-a-half hours to complete, taking in the local golf course, wooden walkways and a set of steps known as \u2018Jacob\u2019s Ladder\u2019 and enjoys stunning views of the Tweed.\nBut now there are concerns over continued erosion of the stretch of banking on the St Boswells side of the river, downstream from the bridge, on the haugh at The Fens.\nThis section of St Cuthbert\u2019s way is extremely popular with local walkers and dog owners from St Boswells and the surrounding area.\nOne worried local dog walker told us: \u201cI just wondered if there is anything you can do to raise awareness and potentially get some action to slow or prevent the residents of St Boswells from losing an extremely popular right of way and walk.\n\u201cIf you take a look at the riverbank downstream from the Mertoun bridge, on the St Boswells side, you will see the problem \u2013 the Tweed is eroding the bank at an incredible rate.\n\u201cThere has been some attempt to fix the lower part of the bank, but the river is now tearing these new very expensive defences from the bank they were designed to protect.\n\u201cIt would be such a shame to see this popular walk disappear. It was voted one of the UK\u2019s top dog walks.\u201d\nContacted by The Southern, St Boswells Community Council chairman Dougie Oliver said he would put the erosion issue on the agenda for tonight\u2019s (Thursday) meeting of the community council in the lesser village hall.\nMr Oliver told The Southern: \u201cThis is the first I\u2019ve heard of new concerns about erosion of the river banking in this area, but I\u2019ll mention it at the meeting.\u201d\n\u201cIf there is anyone, such as local residents and dog walkers, who are concerned about this then I\u2019d encourage them to come along to the community council meeting this week. It starts at 7.30pm.\u201d\nScottish Borders Council\u2019s Ranger Service carries out maintenance to the St Cuthbert\u2019s Way long distance footpath where it comes through the Borders.\nAn SBC spokesman told The Southern that a member of the Ranger Service would be checking the erosion situation on this stretch of the route in the near future.",

        "title": "15 Crazy Player Predictions For The 2016-17 NBA Season",
        "raw_content": "15 Crazy Player Predictions For The 2016-17 NBA Season\nAfter last season's fairy tale ending for the Cleveland Cavaliers, all predictions were essentially thrown out the window unless you picked LeBron James. No Warriors title, no Curry Finals MVP, none of that. Those who stuck with the Cavaliers all along, to you we salute, as you probably took a great deal of gripe for sticking to your prediction. This season, the NBA is fresh off of shot-gunning 100 Red Bulls, as many marquee players league-wide have found a new home and look forward to a fresh start.\nSo, what could happen this season? Well, that's really for you and your friends to decide while sharing a drink over the old water cooler. It is up to the figments of your NBA imagination. We have however, attempted to sort this imagination out for you, or at least inspire it, as we have come up with 15 player predictions that are so crazy, they just may come true. Okay, not all of them are crazy. Some take comfort in the normality of the NBA and some explore outside the realm of our wildest imaginations, like Andrea Bargnani becoming a Sacramento King. Anyways, have a read and remember, the NBA season is just around the corner!\n15 Steph Curry Will Still Lead Warriors in Scoring\nWith the talk of the town abruptly shifting from Steph Curry's historical season, to the arrival of Kevin Durant this summer in Golden State, many have seemed to declare Durant \"the man\" in Golden State. Yes, Durant will find success, and yes the Warriors will (or should) be a powerhouse this season. However, they will still be led on and off of the scoreboard by Steph Curry.\nAdding Durant only makes Curry's life easier and ability to score more deadly. With the opposition now stuck with the task of guarding Curry, Klay Thompson, and Kevin, the shots may not be as frequent, but the quality of shots will improve for Curry and this should result in more buckets. Curry may not average 30+ points again, but we believe he will still lead the Warriors in scoring.\n14 Dwight Howard Puts Up Or Shuts Up\nThis prediction essentially entails that Dwight Howard will return to 2009 form, or he will ride the pine alongside Kris Humphries next season. Yes, the style of play across the NBA has somewhat shifted, but when you are that strong and dominant, all it takes is a little bit of effort to want to do well and crazy things can happen, Dwight!\nHoward may have gotten away with mediocrity in Los Angeles and Houston, but Atlanta has been one of the most professionally and well-run organizations over the past few seasons and thus, I don't think will provide Dwight with much wiggle room for acting like a toddler. That being said, Dwight will either dominate the glass or dominate the pine this upcoming season- there is no in between.\n13 Russell Westbrook Will Win the NBA Scoring Title\nWhy not? Two seasons ago when Kevin Durant was out for the majority of the campaign, Russell Westbrook threw on his Superman cape and almost single-handedly led the Thunder to a play-off birth. Russ was forced to put the offensive load on his back and ended up finishing with a career high 28.1 points per-game- winning the 2015 scoring title.\nRussell Westbrook is team captain of the \"F-U\" all-stars, perfectly prepared to destroy anything in his path- especially those who burn his bridges. We think that Russ will have a new sense of motivation this season, after Durant bolted to the Warriors without saying a word to Westbrook about it. He is the last player in the league that you want to make angry (okay I guess KG technically is still in the league), but regardless, Russ will explode this season and win his second career scoring title.\n12 Karl Anthony-Towns Will Crack the Top-5 in MVP Voting\nSound crazy? Maybe- but Karl Anthony-Towns is the real deal and we feel as though he has what it takes to contend for NBA MVP this season. Towns put up an astounding 18.3 points/ 10.5 rebounds/ 2 assists, and 1.7 blocks per-game in his rookie campaign, easily winning Rookie of the Year in the process. The big man even shot 35% from the three-point line, illustrating his ability to be a dominant, modern stretch five.\nThis season the Timberwolves will be joined behind the bench by the legendary Tom Thibodeau, which we believe will only help to elevate Anthony-Town's game and make him a greater all-around player. Now, we are not oblivious to the elite crop of players that contend for the MVP honors year in and year out. However, we believe that Towns has the ability to become a household name in the NBA, joining Curry, James, Durant, Westbrook, and some of the other big names in the game today.\n11 The Gasol Brothers Under/ Over for Games Played is 110\nWe are not sure whether they will eclipse this under/ over or not, but the fact of the matter is, we predict that the Gasol brothers will combine for somewhere around 110 games played this season. With one foot and half a kneecap between the two, it will be interesting to watch the Gasol's combat their nagging injuries as well as their age.\nPau will be 36-years-old this season and hasn't played a full season since 2010-2011 with the Lakers. Pau missed ten games with the Bulls last season due to several nagging injuries including a swollen right knee, sore hand and sore Achilles. His younger brother Mark broke his foot last season and appeared in just 52 games for the Grizzlies. In 2013-14 the Gasol brothers combined for a total of 119 games. Almost there guys!\n10 Reggie Jackson Will Be More Efficient from Three-Point Range Than Andre Drummond is from the Free-Throw Line\nSeeing as Andre Drummond is a historically pathetic free-throw shooter, we thought we would choose his point-guard Reggie Jackson to create a somewhat comical, yet very realistic prediction. In fact, this prediction is so possible that it almost happened last season, as Andre Drummond shot .355% from the charity stripe and Jackson shot .353% from three-point range. Hey Andre, it's called the charity stripe for a reason! Do you get it? Probably not.\nThis season Drummond will likely continue to struggle from the line and in contrast to last season's numbers, it is quite possible that this prediction comes true during the 2016-17 NBA season. Not that any player would wish such a fate upon his own game but when you struggle in the pros, you often struggle hard.\nP.S. We really want to see this happen.\n9 DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, and Karl Anthony-Towns Will Combine for 200 Three-Pointers\nDid we ever think that the day would come where three big-men were predicted to combine for two-hundred three-balls? Over the past few seasons, the expectations for big-men have slowly begun to increase. This is not to say that if you can't hit from the perimeter you won't play, as we know how many effective, low-post monsters still exist in today's NBA. It has however, turned into a premium, so if you are a big man trying to make it, work on your perimeter shooting, and you may be able to tack on a few extra million dollars.\nTwo-hundred is a lot, but these three men definitely have the ability to do it if they can all stay healthy (cough, Anthony Davis, cough). Last season, Boogie Cousins knocked down 70 three-pointers, Davis 35 (in just 61 games), and Towns 30 (in just his rookie season), for a combined 135. With the trend of the stretch-five on the rise, we have every reason to believe that these three men will have enough looks to accomplish this feat.\n8 Sacramento Kings Sign Josh Smith or Andrea Bargnani- OR BOTH\nSorry, we had to have at least one of the 15 predictions make a mockery of the Sacramento Kings. Now, just to clear things up, these are not real rumors by any means, but that doesn't mean that the Kings will shy away from making an insanely questionable decision this season.\nIf there was a team that would attempt to revitalize the career of either Andrea Bargnani or Josh Smith, it would be the Kings, with a countless amount of rationalizations to go with it- \"Bargnani DID put up 21 a game in 2011 on a 22-win Raptors team. Josh Smith HAS averaged almost two blocks a game for his career!\" Yes, this one was more of a joke-although anything is possible in Sacramento, and if it does happen, somebody owes us a Bargnani Kings jersey!\n7 DeMar DeRozan Will hit at Least 70 Three-Pointers This Season\nIf you are a die-hard Toronto Raptors fan, this would probably suffice as one of your Christmas gifts this season. DeMar DeRozan has been the man in Toronto since 2009 and this off-season signed a monster five-year/ $139 million deal with the club. Hopefully a few of those dollars can go towards learning how to shoot from the perimeter.\nDeRozan has been one of the more elite two-guards in the NBA over the past few seasons, but his one constant knack is his inability to consistently knock down the three-ball. He is a career 28% three-point shooter, putting him right near the bottom of efficiency in terms of guards around the NBA. In 2013-14, DeRozan knocked down a career high 64 three- pointers, but took only 88 attempts the following season. We think DeRozan is more than capable of hitting a three per-game, but for now, seventy will suffice. Baby steps DeMar, baby steps.\n6 Kent Bazemore Will Emerge as the Franchise Guy in Atlanta\nAfter going undrafted in 2o12, Kent Bazemore is a member of the \"I'll show you club\"and show us he did. Nobody really knew who Kent Bazemore was when he was putting up 13 points a game for the lowly Los Angeles Lakers in 2013-14. Upon being moved to Atlanta, Bazemore slowly began to grow into his role as an explosive and versatile wing man, who can slash to the basket for two points, or kick back to the perimeter for three.\nWith the likes of Jeff Teague, DeMarre Carroll, and Al Horford all departing Atlanta in the last year or two, it is clear that the Atlanta Hawks are undergoing a major face lift going forward. This is the perfect time for a young Bazemore to fully find himself and embrace the roll of being the go-to guy, on a solid Atlanta team. We think Bazemore can average around 20 points per-game this season and with Paul Millsap, lead the Hawks on and off the floor.\n5 LeBron James Will Leap Shaq and Move Into 6th All-Time in Scoring\nWe have been lucky enough to watch LeBron James grow throughout the years and take leaps into the Pantheon of the NBA's most elite. LeBron James currently sits 11th all-time in NBA scoring with 26,833 career points. With just 1736 points, LeBron will leap past Hakeem Olajuwon, Elvin Hayes, Moses Malone, and Shaquille O'Neal, into seventh place all-time in scoring.\nIf he doesn't do it this season, there is no doubt that by 2017-18 LeBron James will accomplish this feat. As mentioned, LeBron needs 1736 points to surpass Shaq this season and he has not scored less than this amount in a single season since 2011-12 in Miami, when he missed a career high twenty-games. Assuming LeBron is healthy and himself this season, we believe that we will be watching history once again, unfold before our very eyes.\n4 Curry and Durant Become First Teammates in 50/40/90 Club\nFor those who don't know what these numbers entail, the 50/40/90 club is a prestigious accomplishment that see's a player shoot 50% from the field, 40% from three-point land, and 90% from the free-throw line. To put how challenging this feat is into perspective, only seven men in the history of the league have done it, led by four-time member Steve Nash.\nSo, what are the odds that two teammates achieve this feat in the same season? Well, they are probably at their highest with these two men, as both of them are two of the seven members of the club already. Durant accomplished the feat in 2013 and Curry did it last season. With both men now playing together, they have created every team's worst defensive nightmare. We think that Curry and Durant playing together will cause defenses to settle on one of them, leaving the other to get off clean looks the majority of the time, hopefully resulting in a high efficiency for both men. It's a stretch, but Durant and Curry playing together give us the best odds of seeing this feat come into fruition.\n3 Ish Smith Will be Traded by the Deadline\nYou don't have to be a fortune teller to guess this one- just go look up Ish Smith's career and you will understand this prediction entirely. Smith is an undersized, undrafted journeyman of the NBA, who we personally think is an underrated point guard. He has not been able to find a steady NBA home however, as the Detroit Pistons will be his ninth NBA team in just six seasons! We bet that he will make it ten this season.\nFor Ish Smith, moving around the league has become a normal part of his career and chances are his suitcase has not found a permanent home in Detroit. Look for Smith to once again pack-up and make his way to his tenth NBA team by the deadline in 2017.\n2 Dwayne Wade Will Have a Career Low Season\nPoor Jimmy Butler. He finally gets to send the battered and broken Derrick Rose off into the sunset and was ready to assume the roll as the Bulls official franchise player. That was of course, until the Bulls decided to bring in an aging and unpredictable Rajon Rondo as well as \"hometown hero\" Dwayne Wade! Things are about to get interesting in Chicago....\nThat being said, we don't exactly think that these decisions will work out to the benefit of the Bulls this season, or Dwayne Wade himself. Wade has been slowly digressing each year ever since he put up a league-high 30.2 points-per game in 2008-09. Last year was the first season that when Dwayne Wade had the ball in his hands, his opponent was honestly not all that worried. Wade's killer instinct is all but dead and we have begun to see that his style of play cannot keep up with his age and history of injuries. We think this season will be a mess for the Bulls, and Dwayne Wade will show nothing but digression.\n1 Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson Will Hit More Three-Pointers Than 1/3 of NBA Teams\nBefore you roll your eyes preposterously, the Splash Brothers combined to out-do 13 teams from three-point range last season and even tied Oklahoma City with 678 three-balls. So yeah, it's possible and will probably happen yet again.\nWith the arrival of Kevin Durant in Golden State, many believe that Klay Thompson will get less looks and thus fewer buckets. We believe however, that although he may take three or four less shots than last year, the quality of looks will increase due to the offensive arsenal that the Warriors possess and thus, we don't foresee Thompson's numbers diminishing at all. Meanwhile, Stephen Curry will continue to shoot fire while also finding beter looks thanks to the addition of Durant. Big things are coming in Golden State.",

        "raw_content": "Bret Hart Rips WWE For Hall Of Fame Selections\nWWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart is no stranger to ripping the WWE. He and Vince McMahon put their Montreal Screwjob incident behind them for good back in 2010, but it hasn't stopped The Hitman from voicing his displeasure with the company.\nDuring an interview with Forbes, Hart talked about his disgust over some of this year's WWE Hall of Fame snubs, going as far as to saying he's \"embarrassed that there\u2019s so many great wrestlers out there that have never been given their credit.\"\nSome of the names Hart thought should have been inducted included Rick Rude and The Demolition. Hart also ripped The Freebirds, who found their names inducted:\n\"Why have they been overlooked when you can induct the Freebirds, who never did squat in WWE? Ever. Never drew any money, never did anything. When I remember the Freebirds, they were all drunk and passed out at the gate at one of the airports in my first day in WWF. None of them even made the show that day, they were too drunk to make their plane.\"\nJust file this under another time where Hart criticized the WWE. He's made it known just how anti-PG Era he is, and how \"dangerous,\" of a wrestler Seth Rollins is. Just another day at the office for the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.",

        "title": "Who Should Run WWE? Four Arguments Each For Vince McMahon, Shane, Stephanie And Triple H",
        "raw_content": "Who Should Run WWE? Four Arguments Each For Vince McMahon, Shane, Stephanie And Triple H\nby Aaron Kraft\nThe WWE is a company with a storied past, one that has captivated millions of people over the past five decades. Sure there have been some missteps during that time, but fans have always hung with Vince McMahon and company through thick and thin. Now that McMahon is in his 70s, many have questioned his ability to efficiently run the billion dollar company. While outside opinions will never dictate the inner workings of the WWE board room, a real conversation must be brewing internally about who should be running the show in Stamford, Connecticut.\nCurrently there are only three heirs to the WWE kingdom; Vince's son Shane McMahon, Vince's daughter Stephanie McMahon, and Vince's son in-law Paul \"Triple H\" Levesque. Oh, and let's not forget that Vince McMahon is still alive and well, and will most likely die before relinquishing power. While a case could be made for any of these four running the WWE, in the end there can only be on boss of the company. Today we will look at four arguments why each of the previously mentioned candidates should assume power of the WWE.\nAs always feel free to let us know your opinion in the comments section.\n16 Vince McMahon: For Every Miss, He Gets A Hit\nVince McMahon has made a ton of mistakes, like having a match with God, or making Hornswoggle the anonymous RAW General Manager. But for every one one of those terrible ideas, we get great things like WrestleMania, or the Attitude Era. Sure in his older age, Vince has lost some touch with the current wave of pop culture and technology, but this is still the guy whose idea it was to create the WWE Network - a service that has revolutionized premium streaming content. Some may argue that Vince has always had help in creating many of the ideas that we have come to love, but keep in mind that prior to the Ruthless Aggression Era, the Chairman of WWE wrote every storyline himself. Additionally Vince has served as the filter for a writers room, in which countless bad ideas have been snuffed before they started.\n15 Shane McMahon: Natural Babyface\nServing as the opposite of his sister, Shane McMahon is a natural fan favorite. Even when Shane was running heel during the Attitude Era, most fans couldn\u2019t help but love the fourth generation McMahon. His antics in the ring during his sporadic matches, led to respect outside of it from wrestlers and the WWE Universe alike. When Shane returned to the family business in 2016, things hadn\u2019t changed, with Shane receiving a five minute long ovation from the crowd, and one of the biggest pops in years. The celebration was for good reason too, as Shane was speaking as a surrogate for the bored WWE audience. Since then Shane O\u2019Mac has been on a hot streak with the crowd, and if he took over the company, chances are they would give him more slack than any other person on this list.\n14 Stephanie McMahon: Natural Heel\nStephanie McMahon is arguably the most hated heel in the WWE of the past 15 years, and it makes sense, as her father is her main competition for that title. In fact, it\u2019s safe to say that on this list, Stephanie might play the best heel on camera. That heel boss persona is a necessary evil for the WWE moving forward, especially to work as a foil against the \u201cgood guy\u201d bosses in the WWE. The Billion Dollar Princess is currently the only heel authority figure in the WWE, with Shane McMahon being loved by the SmackDown crowd, and Triple H sitting as a \u201ctweener\u201d, and Vince being gone from television for long periods of time.\nIn case you doubt the effectiveness of a dominant heel authority figure, just think to your fondness of Eric Bischoff running WCW, and Mr. McMahon running WWE during the Attitude Era.\n13 Triple H: Relates To Workers\nTriple H was a wrestling fan, who became a wrestler, who became a creative advisor, who became a WWE corporate employee. Triple H\u2019s resume isn\u2019t just impressive, but critical to the role of leader of the WWE. Not only can The Game relate to executives in the board room, but he can also put himself into the shoes of wrestlers. While Vince McMahon grew up in the business, and wrestled in his fair share of matches, one thing he has never been, is a wrestler. By understanding the needs and frustrations of the in-ring talent, Triple H can effectively make changes on the corporate side of things, which should in turn benefit the wrestlers. This new mindset could set the company up to finally have a synergy between both groups, which should benefit the company and fans.\n12 Vince McMahon: He Created It\nvia heartyhosting.com\nImagine creating something from the ground up, cultivating it from an idea, to a multi-billion dollar empire; would you be willing just to give that up? Be honest, could you really see yourself willfully handing over the reigns to another person while you still felt that you were capable of running things? Chances are if you are being true to yourself the answer is no, and you have fallen into the same category as Vince McMahon in regards to the WWE. Now is his reluctance to relinquish power in the company he started right? Of course not, but that doesn\u2019t mean the feeling isn\u2019t warranted. Vince McMahon\u2019s life is wrestling, and if didn\u2019t have a death grip on the product, chances are he wouldn\u2019t know what to do with himself in the real world.\n11 Shane McMahon: Keeps McMahon Patriarch Alive\nThis may be a trivial entry, but Shane McMahon is a fourth generation McMahon in wrestling. His three sons, who were prominently displayed during Shane\u2019s WrestleMania entrance, make up the fifth generation of men who are named McMahon. Besides the obvious historical value of keeping WWE run by a McMahon, having Shane run the show opens up a new generational power struggle. We often see storylines rehashed, and this idea is no different, as the three new McMahons could easily team up against their father claiming that his ways are outdated in a few years.\nAs a side note, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon have three daughters, and while they could also fit into this idea, they do not keep the McMahon name alive, all having Levesque as a surname.\n10 Stephanie McMahon: Keeps Women In Forefront\nIn the beginning of WWE\u2019s Women\u2019s Revolution, fans were skeptical at best that the WWE would actually put an increased focus on the floundering Women\u2019s Division. But true to their word, WWE not only increased the number of women wrestlers, but has also multiplied the amount of screen time women are getting by leaps and bounds. It can be argued that fans were the crux of the movement, but a real argument can be made that Stephanie McMahon deserves just as much credit.\nThe role of women has continued to evolve in the WWE, not only on a performer side, but on the corporate side as well. By being one of the main cogs that keeps the WWE machine running, Stephanie leads the women by example, and ensures that a female voice will always be present to represent the women of the company.\n9 Triple H: He Can Spot Talent\nPaul \u201cTriple H\u2019\u201d Levesque's legitimate role as the Executive Vice President of Talent for WWE has brought fans the best showing of wrestling talent since Jim Ross held the position in the mid 90s. Since he took on talent relations, Triple H has brought independent talents like Kevin Owens, Finn Balor, Sasha Banks, Paige, Apollo Crews, Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe, and the list goes on and on.\nBesides Crews, most of the people just listed don\u2019t have the traditional \u201cWWE look\u201d, but Triple H has helped to not only feature these stars, but give them prominent roles on WWE programming. Triple H has actively started the culture change in WWE, where talent overrides looks, and in the process won over the WWE Universe with this new way of thinking.\n8 Vince McMahon: He Is The Greatest Heel In The History Of Wrestling\nMr. McMahon may be the greatest heel in the history of wrestling, if not the greatest thing ever done in the industry. Although he doesn\u2019t power walk to the ring as much as he used to back in the late 90s, Mr. McMahon\u2019s legacy as a ruthless heel is now iconic in the WWE. Fans have been conditioned to boo McMahon, even if they weren\u2019t alive during the era in which he was running rough shod over. Recently we saw that McMahon re-appeared on WWE programming during the WWE power struggle between his children. His wit was still on display, as the 71-year-old billionaire still knows how to work a crowd to his advantage while delivering a promo. Sure he\u2019s old, but when he is good, he is the greatest.\n7 Shane McMahon: Brings Back Old Viewers\nIronically enough, when Shane McMahon left the WWE in October of 2009, he was just one of many people to depart from the WWE. Sure his leave of absence was more of a practical quitting of the company, but many fans had given up on WWE\u2019s tired storylines and vanilla product at that point in time. When Shane McMahon came back in 2016, he brought with him fans who were eager to relive the nostalgia of the WWE in the early 2000s. Making headline news in major publications, Shane\u2019s return was one of the sparks that has lit the flame of the New Era. Now running SmackDown, Shane\u2019s reemergence in the company has brought an increase of ratings, with the Tuesday night show actually competing with RAW in viewership. The battle in the ratings is one that hasn\u2019t been this close since Shane was previously with the company\u2026 hmm, starting to see a pattern?\n6 Stephanie McMahon: She Has More Flexibility\nThis may be a cheap entry, as Shane McMahon also possesses this trait, but Stephanie McMahon is so deeply rooted in this business that it\u2019s almost destined for her to take over. Besides working for the WWE all of her life, the current Commissioner of RAW is married to a wrestler, and the daughter of a wrestling promoter. Unlike Shane McMahon who is basically creating relationships with new Superstars as he goes, Stephanie has history with many of the people on the roster, especially the women. Because of her pre-built onscreen relationships, the WWE has more room to build onto storylines for Stephanie, more so than anyone else on this list. And before you start saying \u201cwhat about Triple H?\u201d, remember that The Game works primarily in the main event scene, whereas Stephanie can work anywhere on the card.\n5 Triple H: No More Scripts\nDuring his interview with Steve Austin on the Stone Cold Podcast, Triple H admitted that he wasn\u2019t a fan of scripted promos. In fact, he discourages his NXT talents from using full scripts, so that they can learn from their own mistakes. It\u2019s this trial by fire that actually cultivates creativity and charisma in new talent, and a Triple H run WWE would ensure more spontaneity in promos. Scripted promos have proven to be the downfall for many new superstars in WWE, as those without a great memory often flub the lines given to them. Wouldn\u2019t it be great for Roman Reigns not to ever use the phrase \u201cSufferin Succotash\u201d again? Now obviously this small change is one that any of the McMahons could make, but Triple H has actually made strides in making it happen.\n4 Vince McMahon: He Creates Balance\nThere is no denying that each person on this list has their own intentions and agendas for the future of the WWE, with Vince having ultimate say over what will happen for the company. The one benefit of this, is that McMahon gets to hear opinions from three of his most trusted family members, and use it as a tool to balance out his decisions. Instead of going on rated mature, he listens to Stephanie, and increases WWE\u2019s community presence. Instead of ignoring the IWC, he listens to Shane and acknowledges the problems that the internet has with his company. And instead of hiring all bodybuilder wrestlers, he listens to Triple H and adds experienced globetrotting technicians to the WWE roster.\nConversely, allowing Vince to have final say over everything stops the WWE from pulling in each of the previously mentioned directions too much, creating an ultimate balance for the company.\n3 Shane McMahon: He\u2019s found success outside of wrestling\nIt\u2019s easy to succeed in a business that has already been built to do well, as the wrestling industry has always maintained a solid fan base. When someone from the industry steps outside of the world of professional wrestling (in this case let\u2019s say to start a new football league to compete with the NFL), things don\u2019t always turn out as well. That is why when Shane McMahon left the WWE to pursue other ventures, many fans were skeptical of his probability of success. Shane proved many wrong by successfully starting a video on-demand service in China, which was the first of its kind in the region.\nAdditionally, Shane O\u2019Mac represented golfer Rory McIlroy during his U.S. Open win in 2011, shortly after joining the Board of Directors for International Sports Management. Not only has Shane not failed outside the world of wrestling, he has thrived in every position he has taken on. This leads many to believe that his role as the head honcho in the WWE would lead to fantastic results for all.\n2 Stephanie McMahon: Her Business Acumen (Social Media Too)\nAs the Chief Brand Officer for the WWE, Stephanie McMahon is the living embodiment of brand awareness. Besides being born into the business, and quite literally married to the business, her development of strategic partnerships have helped WWE become one of the leading forces in all of media. Besides being one of the top viewed YouTube channels in the world, WWE also boasts over half a billion social media followers thanks to the efforts of McMahon. Stephanie has solidified partnerships with the United States Armed Forces, children hospitals around the country, the Boys and Girls Club of America, KaBOOM, and various other philanthropic organizations. By securing these partnerships in the community, Stephanie is helping WWE integrate into the daily life of young people, thus ensuring the WWE lives on forever through the youth\u2019s fandom.\nThis is quite a departure from a company that at one time was featuring women stripping live on television, but a change that has benefited the company greatly.\n1 Triple H: NXT\nvia betweentheropes.com\nThe same way that you give a kid a beater car before giving them to the keys to yours, is what Vince McMahon did for Triple H in regards to NXT. Not only did Triple H sustain the performance center, but he has made NXT one of the best wrestling promotions in the world. The greatest part about NXT is its independence from WWE, refusing to use its parent company as a crutch to establish stars. Triple H doesn\u2019t forsake WWE however, using NXT as the literal training ground for stars of the future. NXT Alumni have gone on record as stating that the Full Sail University arena is a mini version of WWE RAW, from the way the ramp is set up, to the placement of the hard camera. These are all features that Triple H developed from the ground up, so imagine what would happen if he had the entire WWE to play with.",

        "raw_content": "If you are a resident of San Diego or on your way to visit San Diego, you have most likely heard of Balboa Park. It's like going to New York and and hearing about Central Park. I have been to Balboa Park a handful of times now and today was the first time I stumbled upon the Spanish Village Art Center. I had no idea this place existed in Balboa Park.\nI went with a friend who grew up in San Diego who has frequented Balboa park and the San Diego zoo numerous times and even she didn't know about this hidden gem.\nAs soon as we spotted this colorful little village, we were super excited to start exploring. The village was established in the late 1930s and all the buildings are the original buildings with the exception of a new coat of paint. The artists that work here today are not allowed to change anything to the exterior to preserve this amazing historic site. Now it totally makes sense to me why the buildings were so small and vintage looking!\nI am not an art major and no little about art, but just being here made me smile and want to learn more about the artists and how they became a member of this community. Every studio has an artist who holds a story and love behind their gorgeous crafts.\nTHIS ARTIST TOLD ME THAT IT TOOK HIM A YEAR TO CREATE THIS PEICE. HE WAS ADDING THE FINAL TOUCHES THAT DAY.\nTHERE WERE SQUI RRELS EVERYWHERE\nI went on a weekday and it was fairly quiet and some of the studios were closed. But the weekends are filled with more activities and events like pottery demonstrations and artist's showing new techniques like alcohol ink art.\nIt's such a shame that this hidden gem is so hidden because it's so full of rich history and beautiful art. So the next time you hear someone mention Balboa Park, tell them to visit the Spanish Village Art Center. I promise you, and they, won't be disappointed.\nADDRESS: 1770 VILLAGE PL, SAN DIEGO, CA 92102 (Between San Diego Natural History Museum & San Diego Zoo)\nHOURS: EVERYDAY FROM 11AM - 4PM\nSan Diego, Balboa Park",

        "raw_content": "Campeche is full of activities for your next trip (Part 1 of 2)\nSan Jose Stronghold (Photo: El Universal, Tourism Campeche)\nWhen you are visiting the Yucatan Peninsula it is always a good idea to make a special trip to Campeche, and for those who ask, \u201cWhat can we do in Campeche?\u201d, TYT brings you the first five of 11 recommendations on places to visit and activities to experience, according to El Universal. The second part will be posted Wednesday Sept. 13 on TYT\u2026.\nCAMPECHE \u2014 Campeche is a state full of natural and archeological areas. 40% of its territory is protected natural areas. In addition, it has the only Mixed Heritage of Humanity in our country. Not to mention that the Mayan tradition prevails in each of its corners.\nSan Francisco de Campeche is the name of the state capital, better known as \u201cthe fortified historic city\u201d. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Only one-third of the wall, which prevented the entrance of pirates, remains standing. This story can be told during a guided tour.\nCampeche Cathedral (Photo: El Universal)\nDo not forget to visit the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception which, illuminated, is simply incomparable. From here we start to know places and traditions that only this state has.\nBastions and doors\nPuerta de Mar (Photo: Google)\nOriginally there were four doors that allowed the entrance to the city, today only the Puerta de Tierra and the Puerta de Mar are left. There were also eight bastions, pentagonal constructions that supported the walls that protected the city from attacks of enemies; of the seven that still are conserved, the most recognized ones are the one of San Carlos, Santa Rosa and the one of Soledad.\nPuerta de Tierra (Photo: Google)\nYou can walk through them and enjoy the spectacular view and structure of this ancient fortification. Some are now art galleries, archeology museums and even have a vaulted auditorium. www.campeche.travel/ruta-circuito-baluartes/\nForts of San Jos\u00e9 and San Miguel\nDuring the raids of English pirates, in the eighteenth century, fortresses were built to protect Campeche from enemy attacks. San Jos\u00e9 Fort, now the Museum of Ships and Weapons, and the San Miguel Museum of Mayan Archeology are still preserved. www.campeche.travel/museo-de-barcos-y-armas/\nThe capital of the Snake Kingdom (Calakmul) is located in a part of the Peten area and is the only Mixed Heritage of Humanity in Mexico for possessing archaeological vestiges of the Mayan culture and for being a Biosphere Reserve.\nThere you can take a tour and appreciate the beauty of the tropical reserve considered the largest in Mexico, its fauna is so varied that you could meet a monkey and delight your eyes with the plumage of different species of exotic birds in your path.\nCalakmul has five architectural complexes connected through squares, whose focal point is the Great Central Plaza. If you are in good physical condition, we recommend walking through the archaeological area that has around 6,750 ancient structures or climb its staggered temples and enjoy the view.\nCalakmul (Photo: El Universal, Tourism Campeche)\nThe estela (monuments carved in high stones that tell important events) are a must-see point of Calakmul. So far, 117 estelas have been recorded; the oldest one is the glyx Uxtle \u2018tuun (three stones) dating from 435 A.C.\nIn Structure VII there is a funeral chamber where the remains of a man who was part of the upper classes of that time were found. His tomb was decorated with jade stones, ceramic pieces and shells.\nYou can stay at the Hotel Puerta Calakmul, whose cabins are spread out in the jungle, with the sounds of the animals cooing. www.puertacalakmul.com.mx\nArcheological zone of Edzn\u00e1\nTo the south of Campeche is this Mayan archaeological zone of 15 centuries of antiquity, also known as the House of the Itz\u00e1es (Maya who migrated from Yucatan to Campeche). Its buildings, made with blocks of limestone, are decorated with glyphs dedicated to deities, mythical animals and geometric figures. Edzn\u00e1 has influence of several architectural styles: Peten, Chenes, Puuc and Late.\nEdzn\u00e1 Archeological zone (Photo: Google)\nThere are more than 20 buildings that Edzna has, the most important are the Big House, ek Temple of the South, Ball Game, Temple of Masquerades (dedicated to the God of the Sun), the three estelas of Eighth Bakt\u00fan, the Building of the Five Floors, Patio Puuc and the Temple of the North.\nTo highlight more the beauty of this place, from Friday to Sunday, offers a light and sound show.\nPalizada: magical village of pirates\n(Photo: El Universal; Flickr / Roberto Gonz\u00e1lez)\nThis municipality is the only Magical Town that has Campeche and is full of a colorful harmony in their houses with French tile roofs. Here, the ideal is to take a tour next to the river or get on a boat to watch crocodiles, turtles and even manatees. Out of the water, you will find that its streets are full of handicraft workshops.\nTo be continued in Part 2, Wednesday Sept. 13\u2026",

        "raw_content": "New York City Groups Ask Feds To Scold Bank\nSix New York advocacy groups are asking the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to rate JPMorgan Chase as \u201cless than satisfactory\u201d in its upcoming exam under the Community Reinvestment Act. The act aims to reduce redlining \u2014 the denial of fair financial services to people in a certain neighborhood \u2014 and to meet the credit needs of citizens in low and moderate-income neighborhoods, according to the Comptroller of the Currency website.\nJPMorgan Chase is one of five lenders negotiating claims with state and federal officials in regards to foreclosure abuses. Flickr/Allison Harger\nIn conducting Community Reinvestment Act examinations, the Comptroller of the Currency invites outside comment regarding the bank\u2019s service. This month, the New York-based groups Community Voices Heard, Good Jobs New York, Neighborhood Economic Development Advocacy Project, New York Public Interest Research Group, South Brooklyn Legal Services and Staten Island Legal Services jointly filed a comment letter outlining the practices of Chase that they deem harmful to low and moderate income citizens in New York City.\nThese practices, the letter states, include redlining, abusive mortgage servicing, and poor Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) administration. The groups claim that Chase engages in \u201cracially disparate lending,\u201d leading to mortgage redlining. The letter references a report entitled Paying More for the American Dream, which Neighborhood Economic Development Advocacy Project and six other organizations compiled in May 2010.\nThe report found that Chase increased its prime refinance lending to New York City homeowners in predominantly white neighborhoods by 25.3 percent from 2006 to 2008, while decreasing the same kind of lending to homeowners in communities of color by 22.2 percent, the letter stated. From 2008 to 2010, the report found that applications to Chase for refinance loans increased 64 percent in predominantly white neighborhoods, while decreasing 10 percent in communities of color.\nIn order to hold Chase accountable for the alleged disparities, the letter requests that Office of the Comptroller of the Currency evaluate the institution\u2019s lending practices at the borough and neighborhood levels, as opposed to relying on aggregate measures for the Metropolitan Statistical Area.\n\u201cIf you take such a big area and then average everything you\u2019re missing what\u2019s really going on in neighborhoods,\u201d said Sarah Ludwig, founder and executive director of Neighborhood Economic Development Advocacy Project. \u201cThat C\u2014putting the Community back into the Community Reinvestment Act\u2014is something very important to many groups like ours.\u201d\nShe said part of the purpose in submitting the letter is not only to bring attention to unsatisfactory practices of the bank, but to hold the bank regulators accountable.\nChase did not respond to a request for comment. In the most recent CRA examination of JPMorgan Chase, dated January 1, 2007, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency gave JPMorgan a ommunity Reinvestment Act rating of \u201cOutstanding\u201d for the state of New York. According to Office of the Comptroller of the Currency\u2019s examination procedures, one of the factors of the Lending Test is the percentage of the institution\u2019s total home mortgage loans and consumer loans to borrowers of low, moderate, middle and upper-incomes, compared to the percentage of the area population that falls into each of these income categories.\nIn explaining the 2007 results of the Lending Test, the examination states that the bank provided \u201cexcellent distributions of loans to borrowers of different income levels and within geographies of different income levels, as well as excellent volumes of community development.\u201d Read the full post at City Limits.\nTAGS: economy, government, housing, pov, real estate and development\nPrevious Post Staten Island: Still \u2018Crazy\u2019 After 350 years?\nNext Post Class Struggle: Higher Education as Economic Development in NYC",

        "raw_content": "Why you have permission to eat cookies\nby Dr Allen Lim\nIn Malcom Gladwell\u2019s book \u201cDavid and Goliath,\u201d Gladwell describes the defeat of the monstrous Goliath by the weaker David, not as an improbable underdog victory, but as a highly misunderstood sure thing. Despite seeming weaker with only a rock and sling to defend him, David was likely a professional \u201cslinger,\u201d not just a simple sheepherder packing the ballistic power and accuracy of a 45 magnum. In contrast, Goliath, despite appearing bigger and stronger, probably suffered from acromegaly \u2013 a pituitary tumor, which can result in excess growth and double vision \u2013 making Goliath slow, clumsy, and a total mismatch compared to the quick and nimble David. Like any misconception, outside appearances don\u2019t typically reveal the truth. And while the story of David and Goliath might seem entirely disconnected from the idea of eating a cookie instead of a pre-packaged energy bar, the reality is that when it comes to taste and performance, our experience has been that in the right context, the simple and unassuming cookie is generally the better bet.\n\u201c...compared to prepackaged energy bars, a freshly prepared cookie from scratch has a similar nutritional profile, contains more moisture, has fewer and simpler ingredients, and tastes better. \u201d\nAt first mention we often think of a cookie as a treat or a dessert \u2013 a guilty pleasure that connotes bad behavior that we sneak into our mouths when no one is looking. Rarely does a cookie impart the idea of health and fitness. For most, it\u2019s a decadent snack, not a performance fuel. Even worse, when I was a teenager in need of food to fuel my long rides or Boy Scout hikes, I use to feel embarrassed when I would pull cookies or weird Chinese snacks out of my pocket when my friends pulled out their PowerBar\u00ae. I had it in my head that if I wanted to optimize my performance or fit in, I had to use products that were specifically engineered to make me better, faster, and stronger. It was a false belief.\nTo be clear, we did not design some new food with the intent of optimizing athletic performance or health. We set out to help people make really delicious cookies - to make the process of making cookies from scratch more convenient and foolproof with an end product no different than a more time consuming and error prone homemade cookie. While our cookie mix is not a ready to go solution it does go a long way in getting folks into the kitchen to bake when they normally wouldn\u2019t. It\u2019s a little bit of effort paired with a little more ease and confidence. It\u2019s something we wanted to take on because even if we didn\u2019t set out to design a better food, it just so happens that for a number of reasons, a freshly prepared cookie is better for athletic performance and health than many prepackaged energy bars. Plus, let\u2019s face it, we all love cookies.\n\u201c...the physiology of digestion begins when we smell and see beautiful food.\u201d\nWith that in mind, compared to prepackaged energy bars, a freshly prepared cookie from scratch has a similar nutritional profile, contains more moisture, has fewer and simpler ingredients, and tastes better. At the most basic level, when I study the nutritional panel and ingredient list of many prepackaged energy bars I find it difficult to justify how they are different than what I might put in a batch of cookies made from scratch. But there\u2019s more than just nutrition at play here. There\u2019s also form and function. With respect to form, a cookie is portable, small, and easily wrapped making it just as easy to eat, once prepared, as anything that comes in a package. Functionally, a cookie has a higher moisture level, making it easier to chew, swallow, and digest. In addition, consuming solid food that actually needs to be digested, helps to ensure that the rate at which fuel empties from the stomach (gastric emptying) doesn\u2019t outpace the rate at which the small intestine can absorb fuel (intestinal absorption). This goes a long way to preventing gut rot and to keep a slow trickle of energy entering the body continuously during hard exercise. Lastly, keeping the ingredient list minimal and avoiding synthetic agents minimizes short-term malabsorption and any long-term harm we may be inadvertently exposing ourselves to. The real benefit of a cookie compared to a dry prepackaged food is taste. While this might seem self-evident, it\u2019s important to recognize something less evident \u2013 the fact that the physiology of digestion begins when we smell and see beautiful food. When that happens, there are a host of physiological changes that ensue, which range from the release of various hormones and enzymes to changes in blood flow and the up-regulation of transporters that prepare us for the absorption and use of nutrients. When something appeals to us, our senses know there is something tangibly different, even if intellectually, those differences are marginal. The bottom line is that the human brain, especially when it comes to food, is much better at believing than reasoning. It\u2019s a fact that can be a positive or a negative. Most prepackaged foods are designed to trick us into thinking they are delicious and good for us, when they are in fact bad for us with a shelf life designed to survive the apocalypse. With this in mind, the question I always had is why not just eat the real thing? Why not eat something that we naturally know is delicious and maybe even a bit decadent, when we need real fuel quickly and efficiently? The irony is that just like cookies, most people aren\u2019t eating prepackaged energy bars in the context of a physically active lifestyle or to enhance their athletic performance. They are overeating these prepackaged products as convenient snacks because they think that they are better for them than something like a cookie. The reality is that like so many of our food options, there is no better or worse. It\u2019s not really about whether David and Goliath were actually well matched or a mismatch. In the end it\u2019s context that matters. It\u2019s a game of rock, paper, and scissors. And depending on the context, kale or a cookie may be the optimal choice. Ultimately there\u2019s no bad food, just bad behavior. So in the context of the right behavior \u2013 of a physically active lifestyle, of hard work, of freshly prepared foods, we hereby give you permission to have a cookie \u2013 to give yourself a little reward for making an effort to be better.",

        "title": "WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? (1962) \u2014 THIRTEENTH FLOOR",
        "raw_content": "Screenplay: Lukas Heller\nReviewed by CHRIS SCALES\nBette Davis and Joan Crawford. Two legendary actresses from the Golden Era of cinema, and quite possibly the fiercest rivals ever to star in a motion picture together. Actually, to call them rivals would be an understatement. These two ladies hated each other, so naturally they were the perfect pairing for a film where jealousy and hatred were the catalyst for tragedy.\nJane Hudson (Bette Davis) is an aging child star left to care for her wheelchair-bound sister Blanche (Joan Crawford), also a former child actress. Stuck living together in a mansion in old Hollywood, Blanche plots to get even with Jane for the car crash that left her crippled years earlier. But Jane is desperate to keep Blanche imprisoned as she plans a new rise to fame, and tries to hide Blanche's existence from doctors, visitors and neighbors while she devises a way to get rid of her sister.\nBette Davis plays \u201cBaby\u201d Jane Hudson who was a spoiled child star in the early 1900s. Her sister Blanche Hudson (played by Joan Crawford) was jealous of her, and upset at how she was basically ignored by their father (who was too busy basking in his daughter\u2019s success). Fast forward to 1935, and the roles have been reversed. Both ladies had gone on to be actresses. However, while Blanche\u2019s films were seen as successes, Jane\u2019s were seen as utter failures.\nOn their way home one night, one of the sisters gets out of the car to open the gate leading to their driveway. The other hits the gas pedal and drives into the gate where the other is standing. Fast forward to 1962 where Blanche is paralyzed from the waist down, and is being cared for by Jane who initially felt some guilt over causing what happened to her sister in 1935. But as time went on, Jane\u2019s jealousy and anger towards her sister increased to the point where it became uncontrollable. She could no longer deal with everyone remembering Blanche as a legendary actress while forgetting that Baby Jane even existed. What happens next is a whirlwind tale of madness and torture culminating in one of the most emotionally charged, gripping, and well acted horror films I\u2019ve ever seen.\nThis movie was 2 hours and 14 minutes, yet the time seemed to fly by. Most of that has to do with how much the film absorbs you into the current life of Blanche and Jane. You meet their neighbors, get an idea of their routines, and how the sisters initially feel comfortable in their daily roles. But Jane\u2019s deliberately paced descent into madness, is a spectacle to behold. More and more she ramps up the atrocities committed against her sister. From disconnecting the phone in Blanche\u2019s room (the only other one in the house is downstairs), to serving Blanche her roasted pet bird on a platter, then a dead rat, leaving Blanche to starve as well as having no access to water, ultimately tying her arms up, taping her mouth shut, and locking her away.\nBette Davis was nominated for an Oscar, and she deserved every bit of it. Joan Crawford was just as great. Even if I didn\u2019t previously know about their infamous real-life hatred for one another, I wouldn\u2019t have been surprised after watching this. There was real tension between the two actresses that felt natural and unforgiving. That tension proceeded to permeate throughout the film\u2019s tone. And just as we get to the boiling point, we\u2019re told something that completely changes the dynamic of the film at the very end. It was such an oddly fitting twist that shows just how screwed up these two ultimately became by their hatred and jealousy of one another.\nAfter this movie, and leading up to the passing of Joan Crawford, both women discovered they had a mutual respect for one another. It\u2019s a rare film where real-life feelings can be expertly honed into giving the audience something memorable and a timeless classic. I really enjoyed this more than I thought, and it deserves every bit of praise that has come it's way.\n8.5 Letters to Daddy in Heaven out of 10\n\u2190 ONE CUT OF THE DEADDEMON SEED (1977) \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Color and Meaning Art, Science, and Symbolism\nby John Gage (Author)\nTrim Size: 10.25 x 7.5\nIs color just a physiological reaction, a sensation resulting from different wave lengths of light on receptors in our eyes? Does color have an effect on our feelings? The phenomenon of color is examined in extraordinary new ways in John Gage's latest book. His pioneering study is informed by the conviction that color is a contingent, historical occurrence whose meaning, like language, lies in the particular contexts in which it is experienced and interpreted.\nGage covers topics as diverse as the optical mixing techniques implicit in mosaic; medieval color-symbolism; the equipment of the manuscript illuminator's workshop, the color languages and color practices of Latin America at the time of the Spanish Conquest; the earliest history of the prism; and the color ideas of Goethe and Runge, Blake and Turner, Seurat and Matisse.\nFrom the perspective of the history of science, Gage considers the bearing of Newton's optical discoveries on painting, the chemist Chevreul's contact with painters and the growing interest of experimental psychologists in the topic of color in the late nineteenth century, particularly in relation to synaesthesia. He includes an invaluable overview of the twentieth-century literature that bears on the historical interpretation of color in art. Gage's explorations further extend the concepts he addressed in his prize-winning book, Color and Culture.\nJohn Gage was formerly Head of the Department of History of Art at Cambridge University, where he is currently Reader in the History of Western Art. An authority on color and on Turner, he won the 1994 Mitchell Prize for the History of Art for his most recent book, Color and Culture: Practice and Meaning from Antiquity to Abstraction.\n\"John Gage's Color and Meaning is full of ideas. . .He is one of the best writers on art now alive.\"\u2014A.

Moreover, there were ten European teams in the round of 16, and six in the quarter-finalists, with Belgium, Croatia and England joining France in the semi-finals.\nFrance's proud World Cup winning coach Didier Deschamps\u00a9Getty Images\nBoth coaches and technical experts from of all of FIFA\u2019s member associations were invited to Sunday\u2019s conference, which offered an opportunity to reflect on the tactical tendencies witnessed at Russia 2018 \u2013 notably the desire to \u201creach the opposition goal as quickly as you can\u201d, as Carlos Alberto Parreira, the former Brazilian World Cup-winning coach and a FIFA technical study group member, put it.\nThe statistics highlighted in a presentation by FIFA\u2019s chief technical development officer, Marco van Basten, and Parreira included a fall in goalless games \u2013 down to one from seven at South Africa 2010 \u2013 and a rise in penalties, with 29 taken and 22 scored in Russia (compared with 15 taken and nine scored in 2010). Increased preparation on the training pitch meant there was also a goal for every 29 corners taken \u2013 compared with 61 in 2010. It was also a cleaner World Cup, with no red cards for violent conduct.\nFrance's Paul Pogba goes for goal in the World Cup final against Croatia\u00a9Getty Images\nThe morning presentation included an analysis of the four European semi-finalists, including winners France, who benefited from a coach, Didier Deschamps, who \u201chas seen it all\u201d and who adopted a policy of \u201ckeeping it simple\u201d, according to former Netherlands striker Van Basten. Parreira cited the strength right through their side, starting with \u201cone of the best goalkeepers\u201d in Hugo Lloris, and ending with Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann.\nDeschamps appeared on the stage to add his reflections, discussing the positive contributions of full-backs Benjamin Pavard and Lucas Hern\u00e1ndez, as well as N\u2019Golo Kant\u00e9, Olivier Giroud and Pogba. \u201cThere was very good defensive organisation and on winning the ball back, we had to push forward very quickly, and we had players who were able to do that,\u201d added Deschamps.\nSemi-finalists England received praise, meanwhile, for their use of set-plays, with Van Basten suggesting a bright future lies ahead as he cited their additional success on the world stage at U17 and U20 levels. \u201cThey have a coach who wants to play from the back, and I think it was a success,\u201d he said, \u201cbut they still can improve. They\u2019re all pretty young and will have a good future.\u201d\nRoberto Mart\u00ednez coached a fine Belgian team\u00a9Getty Images\nThe other beaten semi-finalists, Belgium, were described by Parreira as \u201cthe most entertaining team in the competition\u201d \u2013 and earned praise for the tactical flexibility showed by coach Roberto Mart\u00ednez when switching to 4-3-3 with Romelu Lukaku on the right of their attack for the quarter-final against Brazil. \u201cEvery game was a spectacle,\u201d added Van Basten.\nThe tournament's key playmaker - Croatia's Luka Modri\u0107\u00a9AFP\nAs for runners-up Croatia, Parreira applauded the Balkan side for retaining the identity found previously in the former Yugoslavia\u2019s days as \u201cthe Brazilians of Europe\u201d. For Van Basten, this identity was embodied by Luka Modri\u0107, the tournament\u2019s outstanding playmaker. \u201cIf you have players like this in your team, you always have the feeling he\u2019ll understand you and whatever you want, he does \u2013 he gives the ball at the right time and at the right speed. Modri\u0107 is a player who reads the game.\u201d\nZlatko Dali\u0107 guided Croatia all the way to the final\u00a9UEFA\nCroatia coach Zlatko Dali\u0107 suggested the quartet of European semi-finalists had succeeded because of their team-first approach. \u201cAll four teams looked like a compact team together and played as a group,\u201d he argued. Mart\u00ednez, for his part, suggested that \u201cthe [UEFA] Champions League and the competition that brings\u201d was a factor.\nGareth Southgate took England to the semi-finals in Russia\u00a9AFP/Getty Images\nGareth Southgate, the England manager, reflected that youth development investment had paid handsome dividends for Europe - \"along with the level of the domestic and European competitions in terms of the quality of the matches and playing matches under pressure. Players in those teams in the semi-finals were used to playing in really big knock-out matches and international matches as well.\u201d\nFrank Ludolph, the head of football education at UEFA, cited another significant reason when noting: \u201cThe success of the European teams goes down to the quality of the coaches and, of course, to the quality of coach education.\u201d\n\u00c2\u00a9 1998-2019 UEFA.

        "raw_content": "David Balmain\n0-596-52785-3 91 pages\n\u00a3 $9.99\nThis is an O'Reilly Short Cut. Short Cuts are a series of short booklets (mostly less than 100 pages in length, and mostly priced at $9.99) provided in PDF format as a paid-for download. A quick look at O'Reilly's web site seems to show that more than 80 of these are already available. The very earliest of was published in 2004, but almost all of those listed were published since last summer.\nA couple of Short Cuts were reviewed in the last newsletter: this is the first time I've seen one. The review copy I received was actually supplied printed single-sided on A4 paper, looking rather ugly with a large type-face and small margins. Whether this kind of distribution for documents of this type will catch on remains to be seen: I notice that they seem to be only priced in US Dollars, and that they seem not to be available from outlets other than O'Reilly's web site (certainly not from Amazon's UK site). However, we shall certainly be seeing more reviews of this series here, so I felt it was worthwhile to explain exactly what they are.\nFerret is a native port to Ruby of the Apache Lucene library. It is a search library which allows the creation of a search index for text documents. With the use of appropriate filters it allows you to index other formats such as PDF, HTML, Microsoft Word, OpenOffice.org files and others.\nFerret claims fast permormance figures for both indexing and search, and seems to be already in fairly widespread use, particularly for internal search tools on sites that make use of the Rails framework.\nFerret was written by the author of this Short Cut, David Balmain, and is partly written in Ruby and partly as Ruby extension code in C. The documentation that comes with the software is fairly clear in the sense that it describes at a technical level the various classes and methods that are available: this document reads more like a tutorial at least at first, but seems to degenerate into a reference towards the end.\nI found that by following the text it was easy to write some simple code that worked as expected by modifying the examples given. Having started out in that way, it would not be difficult to use this library to create your own search application for a specific purpose.\nIf I had simply read the documentation that is included in the package I would probably not have been in a position to do that without quite some deep thought and Googling.\nSo this Short Cut is useful for those who want to use the software, and it does not directly violate the principle that ``free software should have free documentation'' because Ferret certainly does have relatively complete documentation at least for those used to dealing with Ruby packages. But this Short Cut certainly makes getting started that little bit easier.",

        "title": "Security Council Fails to Adopt Draft Resolution on Syria That Would Have Threatened Sanctions, Due to Negative Votes of China, Russian Federation | Meetings Coverage and Press Releases",
        "raw_content": "Security Council Fails to Adopt Draft Resolution on Syria That Would Have Threatened Sanctions, Due to Negative Votes of China, Russian Federation\nSecurity Council Fails to Adopt Draft Resolution on Syria That Would Have\nThreatened Sanctions, Due to Negative Votes of China, Russian Federation\nDue to negative votes from two permanent members, the Security Council today failed to adopt a resolution that would have extended the mandate of the United Nations Supervision Mission in Syria (UNSMIS) and which would have threatened sanctions on the country if demands to end the spiralling violence were not met.\nThe text, which received 11 votes in favour to 2 against (China, Russian Federation) with 2 abstentions (Pakistan and South Africa), would have extended the Mission\u2019s mandate, which expires on 20 July, for 45 days and would have had the Council act under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter to demand verifiable compliance \u2014 within 10 days of the adoption \u2014 with its demands in previous resolutions that Syrian authorities pull back military concentrations from population centres and cease the use of heavy weaponry against them.\nThrough the defeated draft, the Council would have expressed grave concern over the escalation of violence and the failure of the parties, in particular the Syrian authorities, to implement the six-point plan of Joint Envoy Kofi Annan for an end to violence, humanitarian and media access, release of detainees and the start of an inclusive political dialogue. It would have demanded that all parties work with the Envoy in implementing the 30 June guidelines of the Action Group on Syria for setting that plan in motion.\nThe Council established UNSMIS \u2014 for three months and with up to 300 unarmed military observers \u2014 in April to monitor a planned cessation of violence in Syria, as well as to monitor and support the full implementation of a six-point peace plan. In mid-June, UNSMIS suspended its monitoring activities due to an escalation of violence.\nThe text would have renewed the mandate of UNMIS on the basis of the Secretary-General\u2019s 6 July report (document S/2012/535), which recommends a reconfiguration of the Mission to increase support for dialogue with and between the parties and enhance attention to the political track and rights\u2019 issues across the six-point plan. It would have requested retention of the minimum observer capacity for that purpose.\nIn his report, the Secretary-General stresses the valuable role the Mission could continue to play. Outlining options for its future orientation, he describes both withdrawal and the addition of a security component as highly problematic. A final option \u2014 the risks for which, he suggested, might be the more acceptable \u2014 was retaining the core elements of the Mission, but refocusing it on activities within its mandate that could be achieved under current circumstances.\nSuch activities included strengthening the capacities for \u201cgood offices\u201d to foster dialogue, brokering local-level agreements to calm tensions, promoting ceasefires between the sides, and deepening engagement. If UNSMIS were reoriented in this manner, he said, the Mission would redeploy from the field to the capital to minimize security risks, retaining core civilian and military observer capacities to focus on the spectrum of initiatives feeding into the political process. It could build up and expand its activities, if security or political conditions allowed.\nFollowing the vote, supporters of the resolution underlined the extent of the continuing carnage and the inability of the Mission to operate following a long period during which they said that it was relying on what they called President Assad\u2019s empty promises to stop the use of heavy weaponry and concentrated military force against population centres. The resolution would not have set the stage for military intervention, they stressed, and was forged through a search for consensus.\nSaying he was appalled at the double veto as the death toll reached 17,000 and counting, the representative of the United Kingdom said that putting the text under Chapter VII, by providing consequences for non-compliance, would have shown the seriousness needed to end the killing, providing support to the Joint Special Envoy\u2019s six-point plan and helping the people of Syria avoid an all-out civil war. The United States\u2019 representative said such consequences for non-compliance were demanded by Mr. Annan, adding, \u201cThis is another dark day in Turtle Bay.\u201d\nThe representative of the Russian Federation said that the sponsors knew well that there was no chance that the text in its current form would have been adopted, as his delegation felt it opened the door to military intervention. The text did not rule out such intervention, would have fanned the flames of confrontation. It directed its language mainly against the Government, despite the violence committed by the other parties, even after such events as yesterday\u2019s attack in Damascus.\nNoting that the Russian Federation had submitted its own text, he said he would not try to put it to a vote, but instead work for a depoliticized text to allow the extension of UNSMIS\u2019 mandate. The representatives of China, Pakistan South Africa and others also prioritized extension of the mandate, including through a short, \u201ctechnical\u201d rollover.\nSyria\u2019s representative, speaking after Council members, said that a simple, practical text should have been adopted to extend the mandate of UNSMIS and aid the implementation of the six-point plan, which his Government strongly supported. Instead, a one-sided text that sought external intervention had failed. The success of Mr. Annan\u2019s plan required political will, particularly on the part of those countries that had influence over the armed groups and could get them to stop their violence.\nHe said that some countries wanted the Annan plan to fail, by creating a parallel track under the so-called Friends of Syria, through distorting facts and through giving the impression of a tyrannical regime that was killing its people. On the contrary, those who wanted peaceful reform had been invited to engage in dialogue, but there were also groups bent on destruction, as well as terrorist groups from outside the country, as shown by yesterday\u2019s attack in Damascus.\nThe representatives of France, Germany, India, Portugal, Guatemala, Morocco and Colombia also spoke.\nThe meeting opened at 10:25 a.m. and closed at 12:10 p.m.\nCouncil President N\u00c9STOR OSORIO (Colombia) announced that, in line with the Council\u2019s rule of procedure by which resolutions were taken up in the order in which they were submitted, the text proposed by France, Germany, Portugal, United Kingdom, and the United States (document S/2012/538) would be considered first. The resolution submitted by the Russian Federation (document S/2012/538/Rev.2) could then be considered.\nThe first resolution was defeated by a vote of 11 in favour to 2 against (China, Russian Federation), with 2 abstentions (Pakistan, South Africa).\nSpeaking after the vote, MARK LYALL GRANT (United Kingdom) said he was appalled by the decision of Russia and China to veto the draft aimed at bringing an end to the bloodshed in Syria and creating the conditions for meaningful political progress. That was the third time they had blocked efforts to address the crisis. More than 14,000 innocent Syrian civilians had been killed since the violence had begun last year. And, since then, the regime had intensified the use of heavy weaponry in population centres. More than 100 civilians were killed daily. The events in Damascus over the last 48 hours demonstrated the need for urgent and decisive action by the Council. Meanwhile, the United Nations Supervision Mission in the Syrian Arab Republic (UNSMIS) had been rendered inoperable, owing to the dangerous security situation.\nEight days ago, he said, the resolution just defeated had been proposed in an effort to change the situation on the ground. Its logic was simple and clear: to use the weight of the Council and the Arab League to bolster efforts to implement the Joint Special Envoy Kofi Annan\u2019s six-point plan, aim to reduce the violence by all sides, and to create conditions for the political progress agreed by all diplomatic partners on 30 June. The resolution had been put under Chapter VII as a clear signal to all parties that their commitments were binding. Both the Secretary-General and Mr. Annan had repeatedly requested that the Council stipulate compliance with the six-point plan and that past resolutions on Syria be implemented. That was precisely what today\u2019s text sought to do.\nAs a first step, he continued, it focused on the removal of heavy weapons, repeatedly affirmed by Mr. Annan and the Secretary-General and the move most likely to alter the dynamics on the ground. Yet, throughout the negotiating process, Russia and China had chosen not to support the action by the envoy. When it came to turning words into action, to implement the two Council resolutions they had supported, and improve security on the ground towards leading to a transition process, they had refused, arguing that Chapter VII was \u201csomehow designed to seek military action through the back door\u201d. That was \u201cirrational\u201d. The Council adopted many Chapter VII resolutions; this one was not under the Charter\u2019s Chapter 42 and \u201ccould not be misconstrued as military intervention\u201d. Instead, it gave them more time.\nBut still, he said, they refused to engage, advocating instead the same approach, relying on an \u201cempty process\u201d, the same one that had been broken with consistency since last November. They had argued for a Mission extension in a manner that wilfully ignored the fact that it was currently unable to operate. Russia and China failed in their responsibility as permanent Council members to help resolve the crisis, failing to support the envoy, failing to support the Syrian people, and, for the third time, blocking the attempt by the Council, supported by most of the international community, to try a new approach. Their failure protected the brutal regime and put their national interests ahead of the lives of millions of Syrians, whose nation had spiralled into an all-out civil war. The United Kingdom would continue to work with the envoy and the international community, deeply regretful that the Council had been unable to play the role for which it was established and duty-bound to fulfil.\nG\u00c9RARD ARAUD (France) said he had hoped not to read out the \u201cghastly list\u201d of Syrian deaths that had followed each of the vetoes by Russia and China. Today, after more than 17,000 Syrian men, women and children had been killed, Russia and China had, for the third time, exercised their veto of the Council\u2019s action. \u201cWe have done all in our power since their double veto in February\u201d towards meeting the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people, establishing rule of law and respect for human rights, and coalescing the international community around the envoy\u2019s mission on the basis of past Council resolutions. According to the transition plan agreed in Geneva on 30 June, \u201cwe, alongside Russia and China,\u201d had agreed on future steps. It was now clear the Russia merely wanted to \u201cwin time for the Syrian regime to smash the opposition\u201d, by advocating only soft pressure through diplomatic contacts, and leaving the responsibility for implementation to the leadership. The only thing it deemed pressing was to wait.\nHowever, he said, the provisions adopted by the Council had been ignored by the Syrian regime, which had not even started to implement the first of those commitments. The Council had demanded that it cease the use of heavy weapons; since then, the civilian population had been crushed by heavy artillery and attack helicopters. The Secretary-General noted in his latest report that, between the bombardments, the regime had sent militias to cut the throats of the innocent. In response, he, along with Mr. Annan, had called on the Council to ensure that its decisions were implemented. That message had been echoed by the Secretary General of the Arab League and 107 States in Paris on 6 July. But, that simple message had just \u201ccome up against the rejection of both Russia and China\u201d.\n\u201cOur draft,\u201d he said, had included \u201cbut the threat of sanctions\u201d, giving the regime 10 days to abide by its commitments \u2014 \u201clong enough to put an end to the use of heavy weapons in civilian neighbourhoods and way too long when hundreds of people were dying daily\u201d. It was up to the Council to choose sanctions when it was deemed necessary. It was wrong of Russia and China to have \u201cvetoed\u201d the Council\u2019s work towards a peaceful solution to the crisis. It was not possible to \u201ccall for a political solution [ad] infinitum\u201d, and not grant Mr. Annan the tools he requested; that was to undermine the Mission itself. This third veto meant that for Russia and China there would be no consequences for Syria and that it could continue to carry out its \u201chorrible work\u201d and that the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people would go unmet. History would prove those countries wrong, and it would judge them. It was doing so now.\nThe resolution\u2019s sponsors had pressed it to a vote aware that the vetoes would be cast, because they \u201ccould not be accomplices to false diplomatic action and paralysis\u201d, he said. That would show no responsibility and undermine the credibility of this lofty chamber. He paid tribute to the men and women who sought relief, adding \u201cthis double veto will not stop us\u201d. France would continue to assist Syria\u2019s democratic transition and work unstintingly to ensure that the regime\u2019s violence was halted.\nPETER WITTIG (Germany) said that when the Syrian people had taken to the streets more than one year ago, their legitimate demands had been met by deadly force and increasing repression. From the start, the Council had warned against spiralling violence. It, along with the Arab League, had called on President Assad to embark on a process of credible political reform and had laid out a plan for a peaceful political process. But, he had not listened. The Council had thus sought action to stop the violence and human rights abuses and prevent a worsening of the situation. It was well known to all why those attempts had failed. More than 15,000 deaths later, Damascus was at war with the Syrian people. With each passing day that the Assad regime escalated its violent repression, it became more difficult to convince those Syrians not to lose hope for a political solution. According to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the country was now in a civil war; the responsibility lay with President Assad to stop it. But, he had failed to protect the Syrian people and broken all his commitments.\nAs a first step in the six-point plan, the Syrian Government had to stop using heavy weapons, he said, adding it was President Assad himself who had made that commitment. The Council supported those decisions and had sent observers to Syria, despite the severe risks and reservations. But hopes in those resolutions were soon shattered. Instead of implementing the plan, instead of silencing the weapons, Mr. Assad had unleashed tanks and helicopters. The Council could not continue business as usual. Mr. Annan was clear in what he expected from both Damascus and the Council: President Assad must immediately stop the use of heavy weapons in populated areas, and the Council must insist on implementing its decisions and send a strong signal that there would be consequences for non-compliances. Today\u2019s resolution would have done that.\nYes, he said, the text would have threatened sanctions, and it would have stressed that those shellings violated international humanitarian law and Council resolutions, and hindered any chance for a political process. Ending the shellings, however, would have opened up space for a political transition. The goal was to achieve Council unity, not to set the stage for military intervention or undermine Mr. Annan and the observer Mission. It would not have been a silver bullet for peace, but it would have provided a chance, maybe the last one, to break the vicious cycle of violence. Today was a lost opportunity. \u201cTogether with our partners, we have tried our utmost,\u201d in the belief it was \u201cour moral responsibility\u201d. While the days of the Assad regime \u201care numbered\u201d, the Syrian people were enduring unspeakable hardship. Germany would continue to support those who shared the goals of peace and democracy. One day, there would be a new Syria. The regime should consider its future options, because one thing was certain: there would be change.\nRAZA BASHIR TARAR (Pakistan) said that violence in Syria was being attributed to both sides, but the results were unacceptable. There was agreement that a Syrian-owned political process was the only solution, not further militarization. Mr. Annan\u2019s six-point plan had been a unifying force in the Council, as was the subsequent Mission to support it. A united approach was still needed to support Mr. Annan\u2019s efforts. The divisive issues of Chapter VII should have been set aside for that purpose, and a more flexible approach used. Pakistan, therefore, had no choice but to abstain from the vote. He urged both sides to eschew violence, engage in dialogue and proceed towards a political solution. The continuing presence of UNSMIS was critical and should not have been linked with other issues. He proposed extension of the Mission for a short period pending further discussions.\nHARDEEP SINGH PURI (India), condemning and extending condolences for the attack yesterday on high Syrian officials in Damascus, reiterated his support for the mission of Mr. Annan and the support from that mission provided by UNSMIS. All parties had failed to fulfil their obligations under Mr. Annan\u2019s six-point plan and must recommit themselves urgently to it. Emphasizing the importance of a stable Syria and the complexity of the ground realities, he stressed the importance of continuing the presence of UNSMIS and addressing the crisis in a balanced and impartial manner. He voted in favour today to support the implementation of the six-point plan, but it would have been better if Council members had shown more flexibility to gain consensus. In spite of the vote, it was essential to extend the Mission\u2019s mandate. He pledged to continue to work tirelessly towards that end.\nJOSE FILIPE MORAES CABRAL (Portugal) expressed disappointment at the results of the vote, as the resolution was meant to help stop the violence and violations of human rights through united, sustained pressure on all sides, and on the Syrian authorities in particular, with serious consequences for non-compliance. Emphasizing the dire humanitarian situation, the long-term lack of implementation of the six-point plan, the continued shelling of the population, and the worsening of the situation in recent days, he said that the text was meant to halt that spiral. The imposition of sanctions would not have been automatic and would not have allowed military intervention. He pledged to continue work with the Council to support the goals of the Joint Envoy.\nVITALY CHURKIN (Russian Federation) said the sponsors of the \u201cjust-blocked\u201d resolution were well aware that it had no chance of adoption. The Russian Federation had explained it could not accept a Chapter VII text to open the path to military intervention and sanctions. Yet, for some reason, those Council members had failed to exclude military intervention. Their calculation to use the Council and the United Nations to further their plans of putting their own pressures on sovereign States would not pass. Instead of levelling insinuations against the Russian Federation, which throughout the conflict had provided key support for the Annan mission, those members had today made \u201cunacceptable statements\u201d. They could have done something to promote dialogue with their Syrian counterparts, rather than fan the flames of conflict, including of Syrian terrorist groups, as they furthered their own \u201cgeopolitical designs\u201d.\nIn fact, he said, those Council members incited the crisis instead of, as they purported, attempting to settle it in accordance with the 30 June Geneva outcome. The sponsors of the just-failed draft had also attempted to fan the flames of divide in the Council. Their resolution was biased, and the sanctions levelled exclusively against Syria would run counter to the Geneva document and fail to reflect the realities in the country today, in particular following yesterday\u2019s grave attack in Damascus. Council members had refused to negotiate the Russian draft, which aimed to bring the Council together, further Annan\u2019s plan and extend the United Nations Mission in Syria. Continued confrontation in the Council was useless and counter-productive and he, therefore, would not submit his draft to a vote. The Council should adopt a technical extension of the Mission\u2019s mandate for a specific time period. All responsible Council members and Syrian parties should be guided by the Special Envoy\u2019s work.\nGERT ROSENTHAL (Guatemala) said he had supported the resolution just adopted because it offered the best opportunity \u2014 perhaps the only one \u2014 to put an end to the \u201ccrazed violence\u201d in Syria and to initiate a Syrian-led political transition. The impediment to consensus was related to the resistance of some members to invoke the Charter\u2019s Article 41, which contemplated the possibility of coercive measures in the case of non-compliance with Council decisions. That same Article excludes punitive measures, such as the use of armed force, putting preventive diplomacy at the Council\u2019s disposal. The possible application of sanctions was \u201cthe least we could do, given the sequence of broken commitments on the part of the Government of Syria during the past months\u201d.\nHe said he regretted the resolution\u2019s rejection, first, because the Syrian people suffered daily the horrors of the spiralling violence and the barbaric acts could be attributed to both sides. The main point was to curb the violence on both sides, the key to which was Government action. He also regretted that Mr. Annan\u2019s work was seriously compromised by the failure to adopt the text. Finally, he regretted the impact of today\u2019s action on the Council itself, and more generally, on the United Nations, whose prestige suffered a new blow. The inability to achieve a unified position \u201cmarks a serious step backwards\u201d. The final irony was that what the text sought to prevent \u2014 an expansion of the violence \u2014 would perversely result in the opposite. He urged all members of the international community to seek a solution that responded to the Syrian people.\nSUSAN RICE (United States) noted that it was the third time in 10 months that two permanent Council Members \u2014 Russia and China \u2014 had prevented the Council from meeting its responsibility in the Syrian conflict. The first two vetoes had been very destructive; this one was even more dangerous and deplorable. The text demanded that all parties cease the violence. It invoked Chapter VII to make more binding the implementation of the six-point plan and the political transition plan agreed by the Action Group in Geneva. The resolution threatened with sanctions the only party in the conflict with heavy weapons \u2014 the Syrian regime \u2014 if it continued to use those brutally against its own citizens and cities. The resolution would not even impose sanctions at this stage, and despite the paranoia, and, disingenuous claims to the contrary, it would not authorize or even pave the way for foreign military intervention. It would have provided political support to the United Nations Mission, which might have given it a fighting chance. It was a shame the Council had been unable to do so.\nShe said, undoubtedly, the only way unarmed United Nations observers could ever deter violence was if their report of Syrian violations of the Annan plan led the Council to impose swift and meaningful consequences for non-compliance, as demanded by the Special Envoy. When voting for UNSMIS\u2019 establishment three months ago, the United States was and remained deeply sceptical of Syria\u2019s pledge to comply. Indeed, week after week, the Secretary-General, the Special Envoy, and the Head of UNSMIS told the Council that the Assad regime continued to fire heavy weapons in population centres, torture citizens, and maintain a horrific posture of intimidation and detention. It employed tanks and helicopter gunships and back militias that were terrorizing entire communities, including perpetrating sexual assaults on women and children. Escalation of the regime\u2019s attacks against its own people was even more troubling, given the large stockpiles of chemical weapons in the country. Those must remain secure, and the regime would be held accountable for their use. As the situation deteriorated, that was a possibility. Use of those weapons against Syria\u2019s own people should be \u201ca concern for us all\u201d.\nThe fault for the unacceptable situation lay squarely with the \u201cheinous Assad regime and those Member States that refused to join the international community and fellow Security Council members that refused to take firm action against the regime\u201d. Their position was at odds with those members that had voted for the resolution, at odds with the Arab League and the 100 Group of Friends of Syria countries and people that had called for Chapter VII Council action. It was also at odds with the aspirations of the vast majority of the Syrian people, who \u201cdeserve so much better from this Security Council\u201d. The Security Council had failed utterly in the most important task on its agenda this year, she declared, adding \u201cthis is another dark day in Turtle Bay.\u201d\nDOCTOR MASHABANE (South Africa), strongly condemning the violence and huge loss of life in Syria, said it was urgent for both sides to stop the violence in all its forms and implement the six-point plan of Mr. Annan, for whom he expressed strong support. The highest priority was to end the suffering of civilians. It was clear that the violence was being conducted by more than one party, however. He was disappointed that the Council had not acted on the extension of UNSMIS with the spirit of compromise, mutual respect and with the Council\u2019s greater responsibilities in mind. There was consensus on many issues and consensus could have been reached, but narrow interests were allowed to destroy unity of purpose. A strong unified message was needed. Today\u2019s text threatened actions only against the Government, without providing consequences for other armed groups for continuing their violence. Avowing that the Mission was a critical part of the effort to end the crisis, he said that South Africa stood ready to work in the Council to achieve an extension of its mandate, including through a technical roll-over for a very short term.\nMOHAMMED LOULICHKI (Morocco) voted in favour of the resolution, because it was in line with the recent decisions of the Arab League and because other resolutions demanding a complete cessation of violence had not been complied with. The text was consistent with the position of the Syria Action Group. His support for the resolution was also due to his support for the work of the Joint Special Envoy. The only loser today was the brotherly Syrian people and the region to which it belonged. He had hoped that every Council member would have joined the common effort and remained united, building on previous resolutions. The parties in Syria would not be able to quell the crisis on their own, it was clear, and for that reason, the Arab League had invited the Council to take strict measures within Chapter VII to help create conditions conducive for starting dialogue. Those measures in no way included military intervention, but instead supported the six-point plan and UNSMIS, to which Morocco had contributed, in order to help find a peaceful resolution of the conflict. He reiterated his firm intention to continue work to restore unity in the Council under Charter principles, and help restore hope to the people of Syria.\nLI BAODONG (China) expressed increasing concern over the violence in Syria and strongly condemned the killing of civilians and the bomb attack in Damascus. He said it was critical to push for an immediate cease-fire and a peaceful solution. UNSMIS had provided an essential role. He supported the Secretary-General\u2019s proposal for extending its mandate and better focusing its role. The draft resolution, however, was counterproductive, as it had uneven content that put pressure on only one party, which would only derail the issue from the track of political settlement and undermine regional peace and stability. He strongly supported Mr. Annan\u2019s mediation efforts, along with the consensus on implementation of his plan forged in Geneva recently by the Action Group.\nChina, he said, had no self-interest in the Syrian issue and reiterated that the crisis there should be resolved by Syrians themselves. The purpose was safeguarding the interests of the Syrian people, as well as the basic norms covering international relations. The discussions on today\u2019s text harmed the unity of the Security Council, as the sponsoring countries took on a \u201crigid and arrogant approach\u201d and refused to make revisions. He said that unfounded accusations were made against China. His country had participated in discussions in a positive and constructive manner, with the goal of implementing previous resolutions and the Annan six-point plan. In contrast, a few countries had been eager to interfere in the internal affairs of Syria, and those countries had set up obstacles in extending the mandate of UNSMIS. One could not help but question their support to UNSMIS and their sincerity in ending the crisis through a Syrian-led political process. He urged them to support the extension of UNSMIS, including through a technical roll over, as had been proposed this morning.\nMr. OSORIO ( Colombia), speaking in his national capacity, said the violent repression begun last April had become more acute by the day. The world was appalled at the dreadful human tragedy. The unusual levels of violence and flagrant disrespect for human rights made it deplorable that the Syrian Government had not taken the necessary measures to implement the six-point plan or Council resolutions; nor had the opposition. Colombia had voted in favour of the resolution because it believed it sent clear messages to all parties in Syria on the need to apply the Council\u2019s resolutions and the Annan plan, as well as the Geneva agreement. He deplored the fact that differences prevailed in the Council, which had prevented it from finding \u201ca political way out, responding to the legitimate aspirations of all segments of Syrian society\u201d. He was not giving up on a political solution to the crisis that would contribute to ending the violence, stopping all human rights violations and finding ways for the Syrian people to build democratic institutions.\nThen, in his capacity as Council President, he announced that, at the request of the sponsor of draft resolution S/2012/538/Rev.2, the Council would not proceed to action.\nBASHAR JA\u2019AFARI (Syria) said the tensions of the Syrian people had intensified, mainly due to what he had warned about for some time, namely the \u201csuspicious coincidence\u201d between Council meetings and terrorist acts. That situation had just been repeated yesterday morning in Damascus. Regrettably, the Council had not condemned that terrorist act, but gratefully, the Secretary-General and Mr. Annan had done so. The absence of any condemnation by the Council could imply that the international community\u2019s consensus to combat terrorism was \u201cmere talk\u201d. It could also mean that the Council\u2019s talk of supporting a peaceful solution in Syria was \u201cbut a slogan in order to gain time\u201d.\nHe said Syria had officially welcomed the Geneva outcome, especially the basic points about sovereignty and territorial integrity, and putting an end in Syria to human rights violations and to the actions of armed groups, as well as protecting Syrians and launching a Syrian-led political process. The Syrian people alone must decide their future \u201cwithout foreign intervention\u201d. If there were no objections to the Geneva plan, then he did not understand why the Council could not agree on a purely procedural matter to extend UNSMIS\u2019 mandate, alongside those fundamentals agreed in Geneva. It had become clear to all that the success of the Annan plan and of UNSMIS, in addition to the Syrian Government\u2019s support, required a sincere commitment by the international community, especially those parties that had influence on the armed groups and armed opposition.\nSome circles with direct interest in fanning the flames of the crisis, however, distorted the facts and distorted the Syrian Government\u2019s response to the crisis by advancing the idea of a tyrannical regime killing its unarmed people, he said. The crisis was complex and multidimensional, with internal and external ramifications. For those who were misguided and carried out destructive acts, \u201cthe road to return to their senses was still open\u201d. He said there was a terrorist group that had external support, which killed civilians and military personnel \u2014 even before the Council had devoted its attention to the situation. The Syrian State could not counter their acts. Those who had closed their embassies in Damascus did not know that armed groups had attacked electrical plants in Syria three times.\nHe said that some countries from the outset had adopted a balanced and constructive position towards the crisis; others had interfered in a flagrant manner, \u201cbeating the drums of threats of war\u201d, providing arms and logistical support to terrorist groups, and imposing 60 measures of illegal sanctions against the Syrian people. \u201cTo those countries we say: if you want to impose the laws of the jungle on others, and if you think that is a logical course of action, allow that first in your own countries.\u201d\nFinally, he said, media reports of Syria\u2019s intention to use chemical weapons \u201chas no basis, whatsoever\u201d. All Syrians sought reconciliation and reconstruction, rather than Chapter VII Council action and external intervention. The Council\u2019s \u201cmemory\u201d was \u201cfull of examples of disaster left on people\u201d to whom those terms had applied. Anyone who believed that those who had invaded Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya were interested in serving Syria\u2019s interests was deluded. Resolution of the crisis could only be Syrian-led, inclusive of the aspirations of the Syrian people, and aimed at establishing a democratic pluralist country where everyone enjoyed equality before the law and where political and economic opportunities were available to all. Syria was interested in building a country strong enough to stand up to any aggression.",

Earlier this month it agreed to sell 1 million barrels of crude oil to Hungary via Croatia as it seeks to widen its post-sanctions customer base, which now includes cargoes sold to oil major BP, France's Total, Greece's Hellenic Petroleum, Spain's Repsol and Cepsa, Russia's Lukoil, Poland's Grupa Lotos, Portugal's Petrogal and Italy's Saras and Iplom. Iran said it has held talks with Bosnia and Herzegovina this week as it hopes to expand its list of crude oil export destinations. However, its shipments to Asia remain the pillar of its export market.\" (Platts, \"Analysis: Iran eyes new crude oil buyers, Asia remains linchpin,\" 11/1/2016).\nLukoil signed two preliminary agreements with the National Iranian Oil Company on Tuesday to study the Caspian Sea's oil and gas potentials, paving the way for Russia's second-largest oil producer to further cement its position in Iran's petroleum market. (October 5, 2016).\nRussia's second-biggest oil producer Lukoil says it is preparing to present Iran with the findings of its studies over two oil fields in the country \u2013 a move which could lead to awarding the development of the fields to the company. Lukoil Chief Executive Officer Vagit Alekperov said the technical studies over Mansouri and Ab Teymour oil fields \u2013 both located in the southwestern oil-rich Khuzestan province \u2013 will be presented to the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) in the near future. Alekperov told reporters after meeting Iran\u2019s Petroleum Minister Bijan Zangeneh that Lukoil experts will soon travel to Khuzestan for a further study of the fields. According to Alekperov, Lukoil is also studying an NIOC project in the Persian Gulf. Nevertheless, he emphasized that Mansouri and Ab Teymour are presently Lukoil\u2019s priority. If Lukoil is awarded the development of the fields anytime soon, it will become the first foreign company to win an oil project in Iran after the removal of sanctions against the country. (Press TV, \"Lukoil est to win two oil deals in Iran,\" 9/19/2016).\n\"Russian oil and gas major Lukoil is interested in returning to Iran after sanctions are lifted, Lukoil\u2019s CEO Vagit Alekperov said on Wednesday after the meeting with Iran\u2019s oil minister Bijan Namdar Zangeneh. The dialog with Iran\u2019s oil minister is highly meaningful, Alekperov said. 'We are currently exploring opportunities of entering Iran after sanctions are lifted. Lukoil discovered the Anaran field in Iran in its time. Certainly, we are interesting in returning to that field,' Lukoil\u2019s CEO said. No other projects in Iran except Anaran were discussed, Alekperov said. 'We are recently focused on the field we know,' he added. Iran is interested in bringing major investors, Lukoil\u2019s CEO said. 'It is a critical stage now; the point is laws on Iranian fields\u2019 development to be passed after sanctions are lifted,' Alekperov said. Iran will hold a conference for foreign investors on that matter, he added. 'We are highly optimistic and look forward proactive working in Iran after abolishment of sanctions,' Lukoil\u2019s CEO said.\" (TASS, \"Russia\u2019s Lukoil is interested in returning to Iran after sanctions are lifted \u2014 CEO,\" 6/3/15)\n\"The head of Lukoil said on Monday that the Russian energy group wanted to return to Iran as soon as sanctions on Tehran are lifted, the latest foreign company to signal interest in developing the country's oil and gas after a nuclear deal with the west. Vagit Alekperov, Lukoil president, told reporters at the IHS CERAWeek energy conference in Houston that the group's office in Iran, recently reopened, was studying geological data so it could take advantage of any opportunities should international sanctions be eased. He said: 'We hope that sanctions will be lifted in the medium term, in the near term, and that we will be able to come back to Iran and come back to the field we were working on.' Mr Alekperov disclosed that he met Iranian oil minister Bijan Zanganeh at the World Economic Forum in Davos, where he signalled that Lukoil was 'ready to participate' in the development of the oil industry.\" (FT, Russia's Lukoil eyes return to Iran once sanctions are lifted,\" 4/21/15)\n\"Russian oil company LUKoil has reopened its office in Iran, part of a push into the Middle Eastern country amid expectations for the removal of sanctions if a deal to curb its nuclear program is reached. LUKoil first vice president Ravil Maganov made the announcement on April 15, saying: 'We look forward to participation in projects in Iran after the sanctions are fully removed.' Maganov said the Anaran project would be LUKoil's primary focus in Iran but added, 'We are studying geological data from other projects as well.' LUKoil and Norway's Statoil started developing the Anaran oil field in 2003 but were forced to pull out in 2011 due to economic sanctions imposed on Iran. The field near the Iraqi border contains an estimated 2 billion barrels of oil.\" (RFE/RL, \"Russia's LUKoil Reopens Office in Iran,\" 4/15/15)\n\"OAO Lukoil, the Russian oil producer with the most assets abroad, is positioning itself for a return to Iran when sanctions are lifted. Chief Executive Vagit Alekperov met with Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh in Vienna today. They discussed potential developments, including the Azar and Changuleh onshore deposits, according to a person familiar with the meeting, asking not be identified because the discussions are private. 'We're just studying' the situation, Alekperov said in Vienna after the meeting. 'We would like to return to those fields where we know the geology.' Russia's second-largest oil producer has expanded abroad as the government limited access to reserves at home. Lukoil discovered the Iranian fields in 2005, together with Statoil ASA, before writing off projects in Iran in 2010 following sanctions by the U.S. and its allies over the nation's nuclear research program. Lukoil is interested to return after sanctions have been removed, which 'depends on the politicians,' Alekperov said. 'The company worked in Iran for a pretty long while.'\" (Bloomberg, \"Lukoil Maneuvering for Return to Iran After Sanctions End,\" 11/26/14)\n\"Iran's oil minister met BP PLC and Total SA on Wednesday, in a sign of renewed interest for the country's oil sector. International sanctions ban Western oil companies from entering Iran's oil fields. Earlier this week, Tehran failed to reach a final nuclear agreement with world powers, which could have eased such restrictions. Speaking to reporters, Iranian oil minister Bijan Zanganeh said he met representatives of BP PLC--the first such reported meeting with the British oil giant--and France's Total SA to discuss a possible entry in the country. Total, which was represented by new Chief Executive Officer Patrick Pouyanne, and BP have both previously said they won't work in Iran unless sanctions are lifted. Separately, Mr Zanganeh also met Vagit Alekperov, president of Russian oil giant Lukoil. Speaking to reporters, Mr. Alekperov said that 'as soon as sanctions [are] lifted, we are hoping [to] enter' the country. He also said Lukoil would like to participate in bidding round for new oil contracts which is due early next year, but which has been postponed several times.\" (Dow Jones, \"Iranian Oil Minister Meets With BP, Total and Lukoil,\" 11/26/14)\n\u201cOAO Lukoil, Russia\u2019s second-biggest oil producer, is in talks with Iran\u2019s Oil Ministry about returning to the Islamic Republic to develop assets, Moscow\u2019s envoy to Tehran said, according to Iran\u2019s Mehr News Agency. Russian Ambassador Levan Dzhagaryan said Lukoil was ready to resume work in Iran\u2019s oil and gas sector after economic sanctions are removed, state-run Mehr reported today. Moscow-based Lukoil abandoned its work in Iran in March 2010, citing pressure from U.S.-imposed economic sanctions\u2026Lukoil Chief Executive Officer Vagit Alekperov said Nov. 29 that the company was ready to resume work in Iran after sanctions on its oil industry had been removed, Russia\u2019s Interfax news agency reported at the time. A spokesman didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for comment today. Dzhagaryan also called for stronger cooperation between Iran and Russia on gas exploration in the Caspian Sea, Mehr reported. Lukoil was a minority partner in the Statoil ASA-led Anaran project and took a $63 million impairment in December 2009 due to the inability to invest in further development amid the threat of U.S. economic sanctions, according to its 2009 financial statements. Dzhagaryan was addressing reporters in a meeting with the head of Iran\u2019s Chamber of Commerce when he made the comments, according to Mehr.\u201d (Bloomberg, \u201cLukoil in Talks With Iran on Post-Sanctions Return, Mehr Says,\u201d 2/8/14)\n\"Lukoil, Russia's No.2 oil producer, is ready to resume cooperation with Iran when international sanctions are lifted, Chief Executive Vagit Alekperov was quoted as saying on Friday\u2026'After sanctions are lifted - definitely. We are interested in all regions where hydrocarbon reserves lie,' Alekperov told Interfax news agency in the city of Perm, answering a question about the possible lifting of sanctions on Iran\u2026Alekperov, also a major shareholder in Lukoil, did not refer directly to any specific projects. A Lukoil spokesman declined further comment. Currently the company, which has a wide network of gas stations in the United States and was once co-owned by the U.S. oil major ConocoPhillips, has no projects in Iran. It pulled out of exploration work at Iran's Anaran block of fields and took a charge in its 2009 accounts as a result of the U.S.-led sanctions, and also halted supplies to Iran of oil refined products such as gasoline. Lukoil, facing falling oil production at its ageing Russian fields in West Siberia, plans to more than double foreign crude output next year after launching its giant West Qurna-2 field in Iraq. One of fields of the Anaran block, Azar, is a continuation of the Iraqi Badra field operated by Gazprom Neft, which had looked at a possible deal in Iran but failed to agree terms. A Gazprom Neft spokesman declined to comment.\" (Reuters, \"Lukoil considers return to post-sanctions Iran - Ifax,\" 11/29/13)\n\"Russian oil giant LUKOIL has resumed gasoline sales into Iran in partnership with China's state-run firm Zhuhai Zhenrong, even as the United States urges the international community to be tough with Tehran... Then sources familiar with the company said traders involved in gasoline trading with Iran at the Russian energy giant had received verbal direction from senior management to halt business activity. But LUKOIL's trading arm, Litasco, and Zhenrong discharged a 250,000-barrel gasoline cargo at the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas last week, industry sources said. Geneva-based Litasco was expected to ship a second cargo of the motor fuel to Bandar Abbas later this week, traders said. A LUKOIL spokesman said 'one-off deliveries (to Iran after it decided to stop the shipments in spring) took place within the frame of previously signed contracts.'\" (Reuters,\"Russia resumes gasoline sales to Iran,\" 8/11/10)\nIn April 2010, Russian private oil giant Lukoil announced that it will stop gasoline shipments to Iran, as a result of pressure from US sanctions. Iran imports 40% of its gasoline due to a lack of refining capacity. (Ynet, \"Russia's Lukoil to halt gasoline sales to Iran\", 4/7/2010).\n\"Russia's largest private crude producer LUKoil abandoned the Anaran oil project in Iran due to international sanctions, the company said on Wednesday. In its consolidated US GAAP financial accounts for 2009, posted on its website, LUKoil said its 'income before one-off impairment losses (including impairment loss for the Anaran project in Iran, which was abandoned due to international sanctions) reached $7,352 million.' Company vice president Leonid Fedun, earlier said further work on the oil field was impossible until U.S. sanctions were lifted.\nThe United States has imposed tough sanctions on international energy companies operating in Iran, including fines and other 'disincentives. 'The Anaran field, with estimated oil reserves of 2 billion barrels, was operated by a consortium of Norwegian StatoilHydro (75%) and LUKoil Overseas (25%).\" (RIA Novosti, \"Russia's LUKoil says Iran project dropped over sanctions,\" 3/24/10)",

        "raw_content": "Economy grew 4.1 percent in the second quarter, fastest pace in four years\nThe economy's 4.1 percent growth rate in the second quarter, the best since 2014, will be hard to duplicate in the final two quarters of the year, economists say.\nEconomy grew 4.1 percent in the second quarter, fastest pace in four years The economy's 4.1 percent growth rate in the second quarter, the best since 2014, will be hard to duplicate in the final two quarters of the year, economists say. Check out this story on USATODAY.com: https://usat.ly/2LUmIGH\nAdam Shell and Paul Davidson, USA TODAY Published 8:51 a.m. ET July 27, 2018 | Updated 2:42 p.m. ET July 27, 2018\nConsumers were expected to drive economic growth in the second quarter.(Photo: GameStop.)\nA big rebound in spending by Americans and a sharp rise in exports and business investment powered the U.S. economy to its fastest growth in four years this spring, the government reported Friday.\nThe nation\u2019s gross domestic product \u2013 the value of all goods and services produced in the U.S. \u2013 increased at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.1 percent from April through June, the Commerce Department said. That\u2019s the largest gain since the third quarter of 2014. Economists had predicted a 4.2 percent increase.\nBut at least part of the gains in the second quarter can be traced to U.S. businesses boosting exports ahead of tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump as part of his trade dispute with global trading partners. The benefit of companies pulling forward business activity is likely to reverse after the tariffs take effect in the third quarter and beyond. Those levies would make it difficult for the economy to keep up the fast past of growth, economists say.\nIt could also be hard for the current pace of growth to continue as the short-term boost from the tax law change fades and interest rates continue to move higher, Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at research firm Capital Economics, wrote in a report.\n\"The economy enjoyed a strong first half of this year, but as the stimulus fades and monetary policy becomes progressively tighter, we expect GDP growth to slow markedly from mid-2019 onwards,\" Ashworth wrote.\nThe robust growth in the past quarter, however, provided President Trump with an opportunity to reiterate that his economic policies, which include massive tax cuts and less regulation of businesses, are working.\nIn a media conference at the White House after the release of the GDP number on Friday morning, Trump called growth north of 4 percent an \"amazing rate.\"\nThe president predicted that the big jump was not a one-hit wonder and noted that the economy was on pace for its fastest annual growth rate in 13 years.\n\"We are going to go a lot higher than these numbers,\" Trump said.\nWhite House aides had been planning Friday morning's address all week, predicting a strong number would enable the president to promote his economic policies.\nThe predictors included Trump himself, who told a crowd in Illinois on Thursday: \"GDP numbers will be announced tomorrow sometime. I don't know what they are, but I \u2013 I think they're going to be terrific.\"\n\"Somebody actually predicted today, 5.3,\" he said. \"I don't think that's going to happen \u2013 5.3. If it has a 4 in front of it, we're happy. If it has like a 3 but it's a 3.8, 3.9, 3.7, we're OK,\" the president said Thursday during the speech at a steel facility.\n\"This is a win for the administration and a win for the markets,\" says Cliff Hodge, director of investments for Cornerstone Wealth in Charlotte, North Carolina:\nAnalysts had expected a sharp pickup after tepid 2 percent growth in the first quarter. That performance was partly chalked up to measurement problems the government has routinely faced early in the year.\nThe strong GDP number was goosed by a 4 percent rise in consumer spending, up sharply from less than 1 percent in the first quarter. That was a bright spot, as it shows consumer demand and consumption is strong, Michael Gapen, an economist at Barclays, told clients.\nTrade also gave GDP a big boost, with net exports adding 1.06 percentage points to growth. Exports surged 9.3 percent and business investments jumped 7.3 percent.\nEconomists expect slower but still solid growth of 2.5 to 3 percent in the second half of 2018 and close to 3 percent growth for the full year. That would meet Trump\u2019s target of 3 percent or better growth, but the gains would largely be stoked by tax cuts and government spending increases that are expected to add to the deficit.\nMany economists are forecasting a recession in 2020. Half the economists surveyed last month by the National Association of Business Economics foresee a recession starting in late 2019 or in early 2020, and two-thirds are predicting a slump by the end of 2020.\nConsumers bust out\nThe 4 percent surge in consumer spending in the April-June period marks a sharp rebound after a tepid first quarter, when Americans hunkered down after splurging for the holidays. U.S. consumers, who account for roughly 70 percent of the nation's total economic output, ramped up their outlays once again in recent months amid solid job and income growth. The tax overhaul passed in December, which lowered income tax rates, has put more money in the pockets of American workers.\nTrade boosts growth\nExports grew 9.3 percent while imports increased less than 1 percent. U.S. exports benefited from a nearly doubling of soybean shipments to $4.1 billion, Wells Fargo said, as overseas businesses loaded up on the product ahead of counter-tariffs by China and other countries.\n\"Ahead of the tariff increase by China, exports of soybean, drugs and petroleum products have surged,\" Sung Won Sohn of SS Economics in Los Angeles said.\nThe duties, however, are expected to hurt exports and subtract from growth in the months ahead, he adds.\nBusiness investment remains strong\nBusiness investment remained robust, increasing 7.3 percent after growing 11.5 percent in the first quarter. Business capital spending soared after the tax cuts provided bigger incentives for companies to reinvest in structures, equipment and information technology. And the outlays should remain strong in the second half of the year but moderate from their previously torrid pace, Morgan Stanley says.\nGovernment spending rises\nGovernment spending grew 2.1 percent after increasing 1.5 percent in the first quarter. The budget deal Congress reached in March is expected to boost government outlays this year, but the impact is likely to fade by the second half of 2019, Wells Fargo said.\nAn industry analyst says he expects a proposed White House plan to impose tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts to move forward and have a negative impact on carmakers and dealers.

Wochit\nCaron's department store, located at Laurel Park Place mall in Livonia, is going out of business.(Photo: Jamie LaReau, Detroit Free Press)\nThe going-out-of-business sale at Carson's department store in Michigan's Laurel Park Place mall is heating up. Literally.\nThe store has been without air conditioning for three to four weeks, causing some employees and at least one customer to feel ill, said some employees and customers.\nOver the weekend, many customers had to step outside in the 90-degree humidity to cool off in the mild breeze. On Monday morning as the store opened, employees stepped into the mall's common areas to cool off.\nThe heat was so insufferable last week, some employees said they ripped into boxes of fans meant for sale, and put them to use instead.\nWould-be home buyers find trouble in Oakland Co.\nMonday morning at least a dozen fans, ranging in size from small, personal-sized fans pointed at sales clerks to large industrial fans near the doorways, buzzed as they blew around the hot air in an attempt to make the store's interior tolerable.\nA Carson's employee, who asked that his name not be used for fear he'd lose his job, described the conditions as the most challenging in his 10 years with the store. But he said he has to stick out the store's liquidation sale.\n\"We've got to work because we need our checks,\" said the man. \"We're the middle class, we have mouths to feed. But I left early Saturday. I couldn't take it.\"\nOne customer described Carson\u2019s well-known \u201cshoe room\u201d \u2014 a separate room featuring deeply discounted shoes, as \"like being in a tomb. A hot tomb\" this weekend.\nCarson's liquidator was on site Monday morning, but he declined to provide his name or answer questions about the air conditioning, other than to say, \"We are not shutting the AC down on purpose\" and he indicated repair personnel were working to get it running.\nDizzy and dropping\nOver the weekend, store managers closed the second level to customers because temperatures there registered above 100 degrees, two employees told the Free Press.\nSome employees reported \"getting dizzy\" due to the heat and said an elderly customer collapsed. They were not clear whether she was reacting to the heat or something else. They said she recovered and walked out. Livonia, Michigan emergency personnel reported no calls to the store over the weekend.\n\"They're giving us water and saying we can take a break when we get too hot. But you can't even do any work, it's just too hot,\" said one employee.\nAnother employee said he has worked there nearly two decades and his work ethic demands that he keep coming in to keep the store clean, help customers and \"go out with a smattering of dignity.\"\nPlus, he feels a camaraderie with other longtime employees who are suffering in the heat.\n\"This is what it means to be family,\" this employee said.\nDad drowns in Mich. lake after jet ski flips\nHe also asked that his name not be used, but added that, \"One of the logistical problems [with the air conditioning] is financial. Just to repair one unit, the cost would be prohibitive for a company going out of business. So it's makeshift for now.\"\nThe liquidator at the store located in the city of Livonia said the second floor was closed to the public because cooling repair staff were working there. He declined further explanation about what was wrong with it or how long it had been down.\nCarson\u2019s department stores have been in liquidation mode since the spring, following the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of the retailer\u2019s parent company, Bon-Ton Stores.\nCaron's department store, located at Laurel Park Place mall in Livonia, is going out of business. (Photo: Jamie LaReau, Detroit Free Press)\nA Carson\u2019s representative had no comment Monday about air conditioning at the Livonia store and said the retailer is no longer answering media calls. The representative would not say when the remaining Carson\u2019s stores are expected to close.\nRepresentatives for the firms handling Carson\u2019s liquidation, Great American Group and Tiger Capital Group, could not immediately be reached Monday.\nLikewise, a call to Laurel Park Place's marketing director was not returned.\nA salesman at the soon-to-close Carson's at Partridge Creek Mall in Clinton Township said the air conditioning at that store was working.\nCustomer Saada Abdallah said she tried to shop at Carson's in Livonia two weeks ago and the air conditioning was not on then. She described it as \"warm and stuffy.\" She believed the air conditioning was turned off because the store is out of money as it liquidates.\n\"Why else would you not turn the air on?\" asked Abdallah. \"You're leaving, so why do you care? But when you hear the customers saying, 'It's hot in here,' it's a problem.\"\nThe employees doubt that the problem will be addressed any time soon. \"The liquidation company is not going to pay for it and neither is Bon-Ton,\" one said.\nThe retailer\u2019s history dates to 1854 and it was long known as Carson Pirie Scott & Co.\nAll Carson\u2019s stores are situated in Midwest states. There are still 11 Carson\u2019s open in Michigan, according to the retailer\u2019s website.\nContact Jamie L. LaReau at 313-222-2149 or jlareau@freepress.com.

        "raw_content": "Criminal records can be an important part of any USA people search. A thorough background check will include not only basic contact information \u2013 such as a recent address and phone number \u2013 but any available public records, which may include not only criminal records, but also marriage records, judgments, liens, bankruptcies, and much more.\nCriminal records are often used for official purposes as a deciding factor for anything from employment to volunteerism, housing to credit. They can also be incredibly helpful for personal safety in online dating or before meeting an online buyer/seller. Checking the criminal history of prospective neighbors before buying a home can not only help safeguard your family, but also protect one of the biggest investments you\u2019ll ever make.\nIn these articles, we explore the different types of criminal record background checks available, when it\u2019s appropriate (and legal) for them to be used and \u2013 perhaps most importantly \u2013 where to get them.",

        "raw_content": "WalletHub: San Diego tops list as 2018's greenest US city\nKatie Pyzyk @_PyintheSky\nWalletHub has released its list of the greenest cities in America for 2018.\nSan Diego; San Francisco; Washington, DC; Irvine, CA; and San Jose, CA topped the list, while Memphis, TN; Toledo, OH; St. Louis; Corpus Christi, TX; and Baton Rouge, LA rounded out the bottom five.\nThe credit report company assessed the 100 largest U.S. cities on four main topics: environment, lifestyle and policy, transportation and energy sources. Within those categories, cities were judged on 26 \"green\" indicators including smart energy policies, amount of green space, greenhouse gas emissions per capita, percentage of commuters who drive and green job opportunities.\nBy ranking cities in this way, the survey highlights how cities have taken action to protect the environment and mitigate climate change. Cities increasingly report going it alone with such efforts in light of decreasing support from state and federal government, such as the United States pulling out of the Paris climate agreement and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) freezing auto emissions standards.\nThe trend isn't just happening in the U.S., either. City leaders around the world report taking more localized action on climate change and other traditionally non-local issues including immigration and trade.\nIn the U.S. green cities survey, unsurprisingly, four of the top five cities are in California. That state is viewed as a leader nationally on environmental issues, and continues to take steps to counteract the federal government's current policies. For example, California released a plan for its own, stricter vehicle emissions requirements following the EPA's standards freeze.\nWallet Hub 2018\u2019s Greenest Cities in America\nFollow Katie Pyzyk on Twitter\nTop image credit: Flickr; Port of San Diego",

Far more powerful than any other force. Without material instinct we would not be here and you have to trust it. Public health has been on this earth for 150 years perhaps. Maternal instinc got us here from the beginning of time. You must trust your instinct.' - Dr. Andrew Wakefield\n\u200b\"So what do I believe moms have to do? They got to take their stand and understand that their baby's health, wellbeing and maybe even their life is at stake here and suddenly they become a different person to contend with.\" - Dr. Patrick Gentempo\n\"The flu shot is something that's being pushed on us in every direction...It has been shown in many studies all across the world that the flu shots simply don't work. The Cochrane Collaboration which is a big think tank organization has shown in all populations -- pediatric populations, middle age adults and senior citizens -- that flu shots are no more effective to prevent you from getting the flu than taking a shot of sterile water; and yet we're forcing this shots on everybody. There's something very sinister about that.\"\n\"Today, a child who is getting all his vaccines in this country, will be getting 68 vaccines.If you were a baby growing up in the 1950s, you were getting about four vaccines.That means since 1950s, the number of vaccines for chldren has increased 17 times from the 1950s to the present. \"\n\u200bVaccine Ingredients\n\u200bInfluenza: Evidence from Cochrane Reviews\nIs there a safe schedule to go to?

As more and more parents speak out, we hear of vaccine injury stories related to every vaccine. Many photos and stories are shared at \"We Remember\" and \"Families Speak.\" I hope that you are listening to the \"Vaccines Revealed\" docu-series. Both episodes thus far have been excellent. I also encourage you to listen to a podcast that autism dad and vaccine truth advocate, J.B. Handley recently recorded with pediatrician, Dr. Paul Thomas. The link to the podcast is https://soundcloud.com/user-507883655/6-dr-paul-thomas-interview-how-to-end-the-autism-epidemic. You might want to read Dr. Thomas' book, \"The Vaccine Friendly Plan\" which he talks about in the interview. Dr. Thomas discusses the meningitis vaccine in the podcast. I suggest that you visit the \"Resources\" page of this website where there is a wealth of information to help you as you make your vaccine related decisions. Visit the National Vaccine Information Center website at www.nvic.org. Become informed, pray for guidance, tap into your maternal instinct and trust it. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless and take care...\nIs there a schedule out there that is considered \"safe?\" Even if that means 1 or 2 vacs only? What states give mercury free vacs? Are they safe?\nDear Cici...One more thing that I urge everyone considering a vaccine to do, is to read the package insert ahead of time. You'll find links on the \"Resources\" page. Read the ingredients, the warnings, the contraindications, the adverse effects. Weigh the risks and the benefits and again . . . trust your instinct. God bless and take care...",

        "title": "How Pat Flynn Made His First $3 Million In Smart Passive Income - Webmaster SEO Knowledge",
        "raw_content": "Pat Flynn and Smart Passive Income is a passive income whiz. Although he says he\u2019s not an expert in the Smart Passive Income subject, he\u2019s earned $3 million in the last six years by creating authoritative and helpful websites in areas as disparate as passing a green building exam, becoming a security guard, and establishing and growing a successful food truck business.\nBut what he\u2019s most well-known for is being the mastermind behind the SmartPassiveIncome blog and podcast, the latter of which just reached its 10 millionth download yesterday. Last month he shared his tips on how to make passive income. Below, he tells us about his personal journey. (He also says you can say hi to him on Twitter and he\u2019ll say hi back.)\nI was laid off from my architecture position in 2008 and created a website to help me pass an exam in the architecture industry called the LEED exam. Little did I know it but this little website I created was generating thousands of visits a day.\nAs I was doing all that LEED stuff, I didn\u2019t think of myself as an entrepreneur. I didn\u2019t understand what the signs were for me to start a business. I\u2019ve always had a desire to be an entrepreneur and do my own thing, but I was so into architecture, I didn\u2019t think that would happen until another 30 or 40 years into my life.\nThat opportunity was always there, but I didn\u2019t realize it until after four or five people said, \u201cPat, your stuff is so good, I would pay you for it.\u201d That\u2019s when I finally took action. I began reading as much as I could about doing business online and listening to podcasts and reaching out to people doing it already. I connected with them and created an ebook study guide, a digital book that could help my visitors pass the LEED exam.\nI launched that in October of 2008, and that very first month I sold that book for $19.99. I sold it in a way where people could come to the site, purchase it and, immediately after, the book, which was simply a pdf file I had written, was directly digitally delivered through an email to them. And as a result of that payment, it was just money into my Paypal account. That first month, I made $7,008.55. That was just life-changing for me.\nCheckout the book at Amazon\nI was so excited I wanted to share how it all happened and what I had learned, so I created SmartPassiveIncome.com that same month. Then, as sales grew on the LEED stuff, I had more and more to talk about and I kept sharing how much I was earning and what I was leaning \u2014 things that went right, and stuff that didn\u2019t go right. A year and a half later, I started to accumulate a large following and be known as a transparent leader in the space of online business education. I then started a YouTube Channel and my podcast. Then I wanted to experiment. I created new businesses outside of anything I was already doing, and sharing that along the way \u2014 that\u2019s how SecurityGuardTrainingHQ.com, CreateaClickableMap.com, FoodTruckr.com and other sites came about. Recently, I started getting involved with public speaking. All the sites have kept growing and people have shared their success stories based off of my own experiments with me, and here I am today.\nHow did you decide to make passive income an area of expertise?\nI still don\u2019t consider it an area of expertise. When I started Smart Passive Income, that was the month I launched my ebook for the architecture site. I didn\u2019t consider myself an expert. It was just something no one had taught me about. People were talking about online business but not about how to automate the process, so I just wanted to create a platform to give it all away. I still don\u2019t know everything about it, but through trial and error, I\u2019ve learned about the process and recorded it.\nPeople consider me an expert now, but I still have to get up and keep going in order to succeed and to provide value. You don\u2019t actually have to be an expert, you just have to know more than the people who are looking for that information. That was the case with Green Exam Academy. I wasn\u2019t a person who got a perfect score on the exam, yet I was seen as an expert because I was the one talking about it online and I had done the test myself and passed it.\nHow did it feel to start making so much money?\nI was obviously very excited and thankful. It\u2019s very humbling because not only am I earning so much money but I can also see the effect my work has on people in terms of their own success. I put up a space in my office that has thank you notes and clippings that people have sent me.\nTo know I\u2019m in a space where I\u2019m financially secure in terms of providing for my family is important, but it\u2019s also scary because in my past, I\u2019ve had friends who had a sudden surge of income, and they changed and they\u2019re not my friends anymore because money changes people. I didn\u2019t want that to happen to me.\nI have a system in place to make sure it doesn\u2019t happen. I have my wife who is helping us stay grounded and making sure my head doesn\u2019t grow too big. But I also say to my audience, Hey, If you see me becoming somebody different from who you know I am or who I\u2019m supposed to be, then catch me before I get off track. I\u2019m not about buying a huge mansion, or really fancy cars. I\u2019m more about the family and making it comfortable at home and going on family trips and creating memories.\nOnce people find success, what commonly happens is they don\u2019t believe that they deserve it or they believe it was accidental, and that\u2019s crept into my head a few times. It\u2019s a very debilitating thing. You start to doubt and you stop working and you stop believing in yourself and you stop putting as much effort in. But I also have a great group of friends who help me with those feelings, and just realizing how many people\u2019s lives I\u2019ve touched and all the notes I get help. That\u2019s why I have that large 5\u2019x5\u2019 space on my wall with notes on it saying \u201cThanks, Pat,\u201d \u201cThanks, Pat.\u201d I have a folder in my inbox just for testimonials of what I\u2019ve done \u2014 it helps me remember that I\u2019m actually making a difference, and it\u2019s not accidental, this success.\nWhat are you doing with your money?\nNow that I have this money coming in, I\u2019m able to explore new options with investing and buying a house a bit sooner in my career. I\u2019m also very happy to be in a place now where I can give back, so I\u2019ve been doing a lot of donating and helping other people get their start. I\u2019m going to be building some schools in poor areas of the world through a company called Pencils of Promise. It\u2019s a personal thing, but I\u2019m also interested in having people come along with me as I document those experiences. My goal is to show people that it isn\u2019t just about the material stuff but about giving: I try to build more to make more money to give more and be an example to other people in the world but also to my kids. When they\u2019re 30 and talking about how their parents raised them, I want them to think we\u2019ve set a good example. I want them to know that there\u2019s joy in giving.\nWhat does a typical day or week look like? How many hours do you work total per week on average?\nI don\u2019t typically work eight hours a day. It\u2019s not a constant schedule. Generally, all day is spent with the family. I play with the kids and we make breakfast and read. The most important thing in my life is my kids, so I want to catch those moments before they grow up and they don\u2019t want to spend time with us anymore.\nI do most of my work at night after they go to bed. Sometimes I can work during the day and I get a few hours to answer emails or do non-heavy brain activity, but it\u2019s harder to do creative stuff like writing where I need large blocks of time, so I do that after they go to bed, from 8pm till about midnight or 1am. I do all my work when I can completely focus on work, and then I can completely focus on family when I need to focus on family.\nThat wasn\u2019t always the case. Even before my wife and I had kids, we\u2019d be having a conversation and in the back of my head, I would be thinking about the next email I wanted to send and that next product I wanted to create. It was unfair, because the lines between my personal life and my work life were crossing over each other.\nAfter some long chats, I learned I need a schedule. So now I know when to work, and everyone else knows when it\u2019s my time to work: It\u2019s after the kids go to bed. Things will change everyone once in a while \u2014 if I have a big project coming up, for example, like during the recent launch of my podcast player, I was asking my wife, can you watch the kids longer?\nNot a corporate job, but she has the hardest job in the world as a stay-at-home mom.\nHave you ever come close to quitting?\nDozens of times, especially in the beginning before I started making money with my book. I doubted whether people were going to buy it or not. I kept saying, What am I doing wasting my time here? The hard thing about building a business online and passive income is that you have to put the work in upfront, and while you\u2019re putting in that work, you\u2019re not getting paid for it. It\u2019s not like traditional work where you put in X hours and you get paid for X hours. You might put in days, month, even years of work before you start to get paid. It does not happen overnight, and it takes a lot of hard work and dedication. Even after the book was sold, I had doubts.\nOne specific moment came when I was approached by the United States Green Building Council, the company that administers the exam that I was writing the guide for. I got a cease and desist letter saying, \u201cStop what you\u2019re doing!\u201d and I freaked out. I was like, This business thing \u2014 I can\u2019t do it. I\u2019m in way over my head. And then I went to a lawyer, and they were like, you just can\u2019t use their trademark in your domain name. Everything else you\u2019re doing is fine. But there was a good week or two where I didn\u2019t know what was going on and I was truly ready to give it all up.\nEven with Smart Passive Income as successful as it is now, the first six months were really tough because I didn\u2019t have an audience. There were a few people reading and a few people leaving comments and the same people leaving comments. There was no growth. Because I just enjoyed writing so much, I kept doing it and then a year and a half later, it got to the point where it exploded.\nWhat are some of the more surprising things that have happened in your journey?\nAn interesting story going back to my LEED book \u2014 when I sold that book the first month, about 20%-25% of the customers were people who had already passed the exam. They emailed me and said Pat, I wanted to buy this book from you because I needed a way to pay you back for all the information you shared for free with me to help me pass the exam before.\nAlso, in 2009, I was making $20,000-$30,000 a month from that ebook, audiobook and practice exams \u2014 and then all of a sudden the USGBC came out with their own study guide. I don\u2019t know if they saw mine or what.\nI thought I was done, but my sales went up actually, because I think people saw there were guides there and looked to see what else was there, and I was able to price lower because I\u2019m just Pat and they\u2019re a company with overhead. So my guide, which was $29.99 at that time, was outselling their other guide because their guide was in the $100 range, and I think people resonated with me and my story: Hey, I\u2019m Pat, I\u2019m just like you. I created the guide that I wished was available when I took the exam.\nWhat has been your favorite story of your followers who are themselves making passive income?\nShane and Jocelyn Sams, who were teachers before. Shane listened to my podcast, and he was like, check out this guy Pat, and his wife was like, No, that sounds kind of scammy to me. But then they decided to give creating digital products a try, so Jocelyn created a website called Elementary Librarian where she was selling packages and worksheets to librarians to help them and that site is doing really well. And Shane is a football coach, so he created coachxo.com to sell defensive plays to coaches. Both of those are doing well over six figures a month now, and they\u2019re doing it through pdf files, worksheets and tools that their audience can use to help them in a more convenient way.\nThere\u2019s also a bunch of kids who listen to my podcast, like a 10-year-old named Enya Hixson who has started her own business. My good friend Ken Kelly who is a magician is doing well with his MagicTricksforKids.org.\nIs there anything else about your personal story you\u2019d like people to know?\nEvery stage of my progress has been met with a lot of doubt and fear but every time I\u2019ve conquered that fear, amazing things have happened on the other end. That\u2019s been from the beginning with Green Exam Academy, to now where I\u2019m getting paid to do keynote speeches. I just got back from Australia and was able to go there with my family but also do the keynote for the ProBlogger conference. If you\u2019d asked me to do that five years ago, I would have immediately said no because I was definitely afraid of speaking. But now that I\u2019ve crushed that fear, it\u2019s been one of the best and most fulfilling things I\u2019ve been able to do, so if you have fear, it\u2019s a sign that there\u2019s something amazing on the other end.\nIf you like my article please share it.

        "title": "My Long Road to Genital Reassignment Surgery - VICE",
        "raw_content": "Portrait of Sara Oliver Wight by Amanda Hakan.\nby Sara Oliver Wight; photos by Amanda Hakan\nMy Long Road to Genital Reassignment Surgery\nPortraits and an essay documenting one woman's battle for healthcare.\nThis January, Sara Oliver Wight underwent genital reassignment surgery after a months-long battle with her insurance company. She documented the experience for VICE below, interspersed with portraits taken before, during, and in recovery from the procedure by photographer Amanda Hakan.\nI really wish I could tell you a happier story. I'm a transgender woman, and I would love to be able to write about an experience with the American healthcare system that didn't feature moments of terror or sadness. While it wasn't always that bad, it most often fell between those less-than-ideal categories.\nI decided I wanted Genital Reconstruction Surgery (GRS) in October of 2013. After three and a half years, I finally received the procedure on January 24th of this year. The amount of effort required to get to that point, both before and after surgery, has driven the majority of my decisions between then and now. In order to pay rent, I have stayed at jobs where I faced open and mocking discrimination. If I couldn't pay rent, I couldn't stay on hormones, and if I couldn't stay on hormones for 18 months, my insurance claim for GRS would be denied. I've hesitated to make travel plans, spend money, or seek out job opportunities because I needed to hold out for this.\nThough I was beyond exhausted, hungry and dehydrated, I had more fun in the hospital waiting room at five in the morning than I thought I would.\nI was 100 percent too nervous to read any of that hospital paperwork in my partner's hand. I still have it and I still haven't.\nMy procedure was originally scheduled for December 5th. About 14 hours before it was meant to happen, I got a phone call telling me my insurance claim for the surgery had been denied. I slumped to the ground in a way I have only ever seen in movies. I spent the rest of December fighting my insurance company; my partner and I made over 100 calls to the caseworker who denied the claim, and while she complained to my doctor's office about it, she never returned our messages.\nSwitching insurance companies was what finally made the procedure happen. By that point, it was January, and I'd been out of work since November, when I had held two jobs simultaneously\u2014both part time, which meant no benefits and no medical leave. I left both to find something with more stability; my job search was cut short when I received the initial surgery date.\nI think the look in my eyes reveals how fucked up on morphine I am. Getting up was never really a question at this point, but I couldn't even if I'd tried.\nI'm used to feeling really strong. I work out a lot and pride myself on being self-sufficient. I found it hard to feel powerful when my lifeline was essentially this hole in my arm.\nI threw out those socks in a Percocet-induced haze, and I miss them. That machine is called a wound vac and it pumps blood out of surgical zones. On the first day there was a lot of blood going through that hose.\nThe hospital stay was pretty sterile, and I was on a whole lot of pain killers most of the time. Thanks to those around me, I had some genuine moments of fun during my stay.\nOne of the first few moments after all the dressings and packing had been removed. I wanted to be more excited but was in too much pain to be that happy. I can be happy now, but was sad the pain took some of that moment away.\nThose bruises were not fun, and I still have a few hints of them as I'm writing this. No, the doctor didn't punch me throughout the surgery\u2014this just happens.\nSometimes we don't get to choose who will be around us in our most intimate moments.\nSometimes we do.\nIn order to stay on track for surgery, I sacrificed opportunities. I lost momentum in my modeling career while glued to the phone for two months straight trying to reschedule surgery. I had to turn down chances to work with artists and designers I admire because the surgery timeline extended from one month to three. This is what our healthcare system does to transgender people like me: It gives us panic attacks on the sidewalk when they accidentally bounce back claims, forcing us to spend our last $100 on medication. It forces us to fight for our survival. This systemic discrimination compounds with discrimination we face in housing, education, and employment. The message we receive is that we don't have a place here in this world.\nMost cis people (and even some trans people) look at GRS as the \"last step\" in transition, but I considered my transition complete when I decided to change my name and pronouns. Everything that followed was just a step I took to make it easier to move through this world with a greater sense of safety and security.\nThat said, it's easy to fall under the delusion that this surgery would validate my identity in the eyes of those around me. I was still misgendered by my mother in the hospital\u2014it hurt, even through the morphine. When a nurse came to check on me my first night at home, she misgendered me for over an hour. I was asked invasive personal questions that had nothing to do with my healthcare. My partner did her best to help, but the nurse persisted. When she left, I ugly cried like I never had before.\nTo have those who are meant to care for you perpetrate such violence against you when you're at your most vulnerable\u2014it pulls your stomach up into your throat and ties a knot on either side. It made me furious and sad. It served to remind me that I will never be fully accepted by many of those around me.\nThis is the backyard I grew up playing and running around in, and this was my first real trip outside after the procedure. It was the first day that really felt like spring. Feeling the sun on my face the first time made me forget the difficulty I had just standing.\nIt's no secret that healthcare in this country is a mess\u2014my road toward this procedure began well before the 45th president took office. Things have only gotten worse since. If we lose nondiscrimination protections enshrined in the Affordable Care Act, my situation could soon seem like an unachievable, best case scenario. And even if an insurance company is legally required to cover trans healthcare, as is currently the case, there's a difference between writing protections and enforcing them. Insurance companies can still ask for doctor's letters to access procedures and enact requirements for \"consistent gender presentation.\" With those requirements in place, it's even harder for people who lack family and community support, as I've been lucky enough to have, to gain access to the medical care they desire.\nChelsea Manning\u2014one of the most famous trans women alive right now\u2014was denied trans-specific healthcare for years while imprisoned by the Army. Those actions have very real consequences: They broadcast the idea that trans people can be taken advantage of and that our healthcare isn't valid, ideas that are extremely damaging to trans people on an individual level. Seeing my insurance company deny my surgery the first time made me feel like I don't deserve easy access to a healthy life. I've been made to feel like months and years of work can mean nothing, and that I'd never be able to take care of myself in a self-sufficient manner. I have been scared, and I have been hurt, and I have been carried by those around me.\nI have also laughed so hard playing video games with my brother and partner that I thought I would surely tear some of my surgeon's hard work. As one half of our relationship has been spent with me bedridden, my partner and I were made to connect in ways we had not before, and our relationship only grew stronger. I'm happy with the decisions I've made, and I carry with me the conviction that they were the right ones to make. I will continue to live my life, and I will continue to grow and thrive, but I have new scars now, and I've had to make peace with that, too.\nIt took a while before my partner could hold me like this. It's a unique struggle to not be able to show affection in the ways you are used to, but it forced us to build our relationship in new directions, and gave us tools we still use today.\nAfter over a month of hospital gowns and sweatpants, I'm excited to be back to wearing my clothes again, because each piece makes me happy for a different reason.\nI didn't wear make up for two months. I'm still getting used to putting it on and what I look like with it.\nTwo months ago I would not have been able to hold this position long enough to take a photo.\nFollow Sara Oliver Wight on Twitter and Instagram.

But be warned, it\u2019s not an easy walk and shouldn\u2019t be attempted by anyone who isn\u2019t a competent scrambler.\nSimilarly the four-day walk from Wilson\u2019s Peak to Spicers Peak is also a classic south-east Queensland walk.\nSpicers Peak can be visited as part of a day walk or as part of a through-walk itinerary.\nThe two main routes are the north-east and north-west ridges. The steep north-east ridge provides the quickest route to the eastern summit but requires extreme care.\nThe route to the North-East Ridge is steep and very loose in places. It isn\u2019t suitable for people who are nervous about heights and is graded a 3.5 to 4 category walk.\nSpicer\u2019s Retreats offers a three-day Spicer\u2019s Trail Walk through this area.\nWalking Spicers Peak. Picture by @triantiwontigongolope\nThe walks leave from the Governor\u2019s Chair carpark, off Spicers Gap Road. If you are not up for a walk but do want to take in the views, there\u2019s a spectacular lookout located about 150m from the carpark. It offers views over the Fassifern Valley.\nAllow several hours for the journey between east and west peaks as it is largely rainforest and there are a number of rocky obstacles.\nThere\u2019s an easy walk to the Spicer\u2019s Gap lookout and it\u2019s accessed about 150m from the Spicer\u2019s Gap carpark. It offers views over the Fassifern Valley.\nViews from Governor\u2019s Chair. Picture via @daveo_1212\nA small, elevated rough campsite is located on the eastern side of Spicers Peak between rainforest and heath, with views east and south. A lesser-used tent site is located just west of the rock cairn. There are no facilities here and campers must be self-sufficient. Open fires are not allowed and food scraps must be carried out.\nVehicle access is via the Governor\u2019s Chair carpark, via Spicers Gap Road.\nThere is also a camping site on the western side of the peak. It is also a remote area bush camp and offers good views. Access is also via Governors Chair carpark.\nThe beautiful Spicer\u2019s Peak Lodge.\nThe mountain was named by Allan Cunningham after Peter Spicer, who was one of the first convict Superintendents at the Moreton Bay Penal Settlement. Spicer was said to have noted the peak while searching for escaped convicts.\nIn 1827 British botanist Allan Cunningham led his packhorses inland from Sydney for six weeks until he climbed onto the plateau that\u2019s now home to Spicers Peak Lodge.\nSpicers Peak is located south of Spicers Gap, which was once the main route between Brisbane and the Darling Downs. The Main Range once served as a barrier to contain the early convict settlement at Moreton Bay.\nLocal geologist, John Jackson, says Spicers Peak is remnant \u2018runny\u2019 lava flows from the unlocated Main Range Shield Volcano.\nTags: mountains, Scenic Rim, Spicer's Peak, what mountain is that\nhttps://www.visitscenicrim.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Spicers-Peak-by-@wonderfully_wild.png 848 1120 Alice Gorman https://www.visitscenicrim.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/visit-scenic-rim-logo.png Alice Gorman2018-09-20 01:47:002018-09-20 01:49:10What Mountain is that?

        "raw_content": "Loch Ardinning: nature on the doorstep\nLoch Ardinning, a Scottish Wildlife Trust reserve\nA day off and the sun is shining \u2013 so what better way to spend the time than to head out into the countryside! Living just north of Glasgow there is a wealth of beautiful countryside to chose from and one of my favourites is the Scottish Wildlife Trust\u2019s reserve at Loch Ardinning.\nApproaching Loch Ardinning from the south, you get stunning views of the Campsie Fells and Dumgoyne, a volcanic plug which is a well-known and very distinct local landmark. Today the Fells were snow-covered and with clear blue skies and bright sunshine looked even more splendid than usual.\nThe Campsie Fells and Dumgoyne from Loch Ardinning\nThe reserve covers 142 hectares of moorland, wetland and woodland as well as the loch itself. It may be a nature trail today, but some of the landscape has been shaped by man. Within the boundaries of the reserve there is an old quarry which provided sandstone in the early 19th century for the foundations of the nearby main road (A81). While the dam at the start of the walk was originally built both to enlarge the loch and to provide water for the mills in the nearby Blane valley. The loch itself is shallow and often freezes and in the past was a popular spot for curling \u2013 on the trail you can see the remains of the base of the former curling hut.\nHeading up towards the cairn\nIt\u2019s close to the city but nonetheless a varied and rugged landscape, and you get a great sense of being well away from the noise and bustle of the town. The trail guide and marker posts along the way provide interesting facts about what has shaped the land and what there is to see.\nIn fact, there is even a battle site on the reserve! As the guide says : \u201cPart of the rock formation used to be called Cat Craig, derived from the ancient British and Gaelic words meaning \u2018battle rock\u2019. The earliest known historical reference to the area concerns the Battle of Ardunnion about AD570 when Gwallawg and his brother kings of Cumbria fought and defeated Hussa the son of the king of Bernicia. A fierce battle was fought between the rocks here and the Blane Water.\u201d So it\u2019s not always been as peaceful around here as you might imagine!\nThe cairn, almost mid-way on the walk\nOver the past fifty years The Scottish Wildlife Trust has established and managed 120 wildlife reserves the length and breadth of the country. Their vision and hard work has helped create, save and regenerate a wealth of sites. And as in so many wonderful places in Scotland a fantastic job is done by the volunteers who maintain paths, ensure natural tree-regeneration, clear old blocked field drains, cut back invasive plants and carry out the hundred and one other tasks that go to make the reserve a pleasure for all to use. I have a huge admiration for the work they do keeping this beautiful country of ours beautiful and making it something that can be shared by us all. There\u2019s no doubt that in Scotland we are very fortunate indeed to have so much natural beauty right on our very doorstep \u2013 and it\u2019s just waiting for you to get out and enjoy it!\nLooking across the loch with the Campsies behind\nFor further information about Loch Ardinning, and volunteering, here is the link to the Scottish Wildlife Trust\nThis entry was posted in History, Scotland, Travel and tagged Battle of Ardunnion, Blane Valley, Campsie Fells, Cat Craig, Dumgoyne, Loch Ardinning, Scottish Wildlife Trust Volunteers.

He also held leadership positions in counterterrorism and national security.\nDuring his time in Washington, McCabe was involved in the investigation into the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and the arrest and interrogation of Ahmed Abu Khattala - a suspect in the attack on the U.S. embassy in Libya in 2012.\nIn 2015, just before he was named deputy director of the agency, McCabe came under scrutiny when his wife accepted $500,000 for a failed state Senate campaign in Virginia from the political organization of Governor Terry McAuliffe, a close Clinton ally.\nThe incident, and whether he should have recused himself, have come under scrutiny as the Department of Justice continues to probe the FBI's handling of Clinton's use of the private server. The FBI has said that McCabe consulted ethics officers when his wife first considered running for office on guidance to avoid potential conflicts of interest.\nMcCabe graduated from Duke University and obtained a law degree from Washington University in St. Louis.\nTrump Escalates Feud with Ousted FBI Director Comey\nActing FBI Chief: Comey Firing Has No Impact on Russia Probe\nThursday Roundup: Trump, Comey, Russia Probe\nQ&A: What We Know About US Probes of Russian Meddling in 2016 Election",

On Shanina: Lace blouse, bra, skirt; all Dolce & Gabbana\n\u201cI want to be Batman,\u201d says Shah Rukh Khan. We\u2019re in his version of the Batmobile. His swish black and chrome trailer, parked outside a warehouse-like studio in the sprawling compound of Hyderabad\u2019s Ramoji Film City, is kitted with much luxury. He sits on a reclining leather chair as a team of two men paints his armour on his face. For tonight, Ramoji is Gotham City.\n\u201cIf I wanted to wake up as myself every morning, I wouldn\u2019t be an actor. I want to be Batman in the morning. I want to be Superman. I want to be Raj, Rahul, the guy in the blood-spattered white vest with a gun in his hand and a girl by his side,\u201d says Khan. His dream role, he tells me in the month that the 24th Bond film hits theatres, is to play James Bond. (Favourite Bond movie? Moonraker.) It\u2019s a myth that actors are narcissistic, he declares. His only envy in the world are people who are comfortable with themselves. \u201cFor 25 years I\u2019ve wanted to be 70 different people in the morning. I don\u2019t want to be me. So if I loved myself so much, why would I be an actor?\u201d\nKhan turns 50 on November 2. He\u2019s been in the movies for precisely half of his life, working around the clock, famously subsisting on a diet rich in nicotine, good spirits and astonishingly little sleep.He is in Ramoji to finish the last leg of shooting for Dilwale, a movie directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by Khan\u2019s company, Red Chillies Entertainment. Scheduled for a December release, it marks his big romantic comeback with Kajol\u2014the title is a throwback to their winning pairing in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ) in 1995, the movie that for all purposes turned Shah Rukh Khan, the actor, into Shah Rukh, India\u2019s biggest movie star. It is to accommodate his relentless schedule that the Vogue team\u2014and a Victoria\u2019s Secret supermodel, Shanina Shaik\u2014have flown down to make pictures between 9pm and 3am.\nKhan the Actor might not love himself enough, but Khan the Star is a picture of grand self-love. He says things like: \u201cI\u2019m an international &^**%$ movie star.\u201d Both men are in the trailer right now. It\u2019s no wonder that Mahesh Bhatt, a prescient man, had said back in the \u201990s that Khan is schizophrenic\u2014\u201ca man with two people lurking inside.\u201d\nIt was the actor who had responded with a self-effacing \u201cWhy me?\u201d when the British-Indian filmmaker and journalist Nasreen Munni Kabir had pitched the idea of a documentary on his life for Channel 4. But Khan, the movie star, isn\u2019t averse to beating up people who spawn gossip about imagined infidelities or breach the common code of decency. \u201cThe excuse that I\u2019m a public figure and you can say anything about me is bullshit. I\u2019m very respectful of people. Tehzeeb cheez hoti hai. If I met your mother, I\u2019d be respectful to her even if I hated you,\u201d he says.\nThere is, in fact, a lot of talk of \u201ctehzeeb,\u201d the Urdu word that roughly approximates to \u201crefined manners\u201d or \u201cetiquette.\u201d It is a word that doesn\u2019t translate well. Neither does Khan. Karan Johar, his longtime friend and collaborator, phrases it best: \u201cYou can\u2019t explain Shah Rukh Khan. You can only experience him.\u201d\nMany of us in this cinema-crazed nation of billions must have had a Shah Rukh Khan experience to make him the star that he is. Perhaps it was watching him use his physicality\u2014the dimpled smile, the limpid eyes\u2014to his best advantage onscreen. In DDLJ, in the song \u2018Ruk Jaa O Dil Deewane\u2019, Khan\u2019s character, Raj, has a few false starts on the piano before he sings out in perfect melody. And the contemptuous lady in question is swept off her feet. That\u2019s Shah Rukh Khan all right. Making us lose our footing when we least expect it. My sweep was when I heard him read from his work-in-progress book at the ThiNK Fest in Goa in November 2012. When he read an extract about his adolescent pain of watching his father fail, and die without pride or purse, I found myself weeping.\nAdoration finds him everywhere. Women show up to tie \u2018I love you\u2019 bracelets, sometimes rakhis, on his wrists. They hand him letters and notes. Internationally, the hordes of fans have multiplied over the years. Nations have followed suit: the French have awarded him their highest civilian honour, the L\u00e9gion d\u2019honneur. \u201cPublicly, I\u2019m fantastically confident but sometimes I get weirded out by all the attention,\u201d he says. \u201cI can\u2019t disrespect the fact that there are these people out there\u2026 not just the screaming, selfie-loving fans, but people who seem to truly love me. I can see it when the aunties come and the mothers come and the children come. They hug me, and sometimes they start crying. I don\u2019t know which is which\u2026 so I make it a point to meet everybody with a lot of love.\u201d\nA VFX supervisor comes to the trailer to take notes on the work required for a song sequence in Dilwale. Shot partially in Iceland, it opens with a bird\u2019s eye view of Kajol running on a black sand beach in a yellow sari, under a night sky emblazoned with the Northern Lights. Khan wants the sky brightened. This might just be the most spectacular Indian movie song picturisation till date. \u201cI want every film I produce to be bigger than my last,\u201d says Khan. \u201cIt\u2019s something I promised myself.\u201d He has just finished filming Maneesh Sharma\u2019s Fan, a movie in which he plays a superstar and his biggest fan. There\u2019s Raees, where he plays a cruel bootlegger, scheduled for a July 2016 Eid release\u2014the trailer for this, showing Khan sporting surma and a stubble, has garnered quite a frenzy. But what is most exciting is a forthcoming project to be directed by Gauri Shinde that casts him in an unusual equation with Alia Bhatt.\nWhen talk of \u201ccrossover films\u201d comes up, he doesn\u2019t have much patience. He had famously turned down the quizmaster\u2019s role in Slumdog Millionaire (2008). \u201cIt wasn\u2019t right,\u201d he tells me. But what if the role was right? What does he think of Irrfan Khan in Jurassic World and Priyanka Chopra in Quantico? \u201cI hope everyone who \u2018goes across\u2019 does very well. We\u2019re the biggest filmmaking country in the world and it\u2019s time we were outbound. Yes, if there\u2019s a film with the right role for me, I\u2019ll do it. But I\u2019ll be honest; I\u2019ve never been offered such a film.\u201d\nPerhaps they\u2019re afraid, I suggest. \u201cThey should be. They have to offer me something that doesn\u2019t disrespect my audience of 1.2 billion. I\u2019d never disrespect that,\u201d he says. He\u2019s certain he\u2019ll never play a caricatured Indian character. \u201cWhat are you saying, sir? A thousand apologies, sir!\u2026 I\u2019m not going to do that shit,\u201d he flares. Unlike his fanbase, though, he exhibits considerable generosity towards the international business magazine that recently called him \u2018India\u2019s Leonardo DiCaprio\u2019, following which memes of Khan\u2019s net worth of US$600 million versus DiCaprio\u2019s 245 flooded the internet. \u201cIt was just their way to explain it to the West. I was the Tom Cruise of India some years ago.\u201d\n\u201cHaving said that,\u201d he goes on, \u201cI\u2019m turning 50. I don\u2019t have a USP. I\u2019m not a Kung Fu fighter. I\u2019m not a great dancer. I\u2019m not the best-looking guy around. At 50, Hollywood has much better actors than me. So unless somebody writes a film with a 50-year-old Indian in the lead\u2026 something like The Pianist\u2026 or a brown Bond\u2026 Until then the chances of Shah Rukh Khan going to Hollywood are slim.\u201d\nInstead, Khan\u2019s ambitions are focussed on making the first Indian film that becomes truly international. \u201cFor me, that would be the biggest achievement. But we\u2019ll need to dress the part first. You can\u2019t go to a blacktie affair in your pyjamas. We\u2019ll need shorter durations, and tighter, more scientific screenplays.\u201d\nSomething Lady Gaga\u2014\u201ca very cool young girl with her head firmly on her shoulders\u201d\u2014told him has stayed with him. When he met her at the bidding of his children, Aryan (18) and Suhana (15), a few years ago, he\u2019d asked about her cultivated public image. \u201cShe said her grandmother told her that the art is important, the artist is not. Once your art is over, you should be able to walk on the streets of New York or New Delhi just like anybody else. That\u2019s why she is the way she is. People misread the whole concept.\u201d\nThis is not to say that when the lights are out and the make-up comes off, what remains of Khan is a deflated, humble soul. But unlike the ballerinas in Black Swan (2010), he appears at ease with the twin cast residing in him. \u201cI keep telling people that I\u2019m just an employee of the star that Shah Rukh Khan is. I don\u2019t want any of this,\u201d he says, gesturing towards the piles of jackets and shoes being carried into the trailer. \u201cI just want to get up in the morning and go to the set and act.\u201d\nAnaita Shroff Adajania, Vogue\u2019s fashion director, who played a character infatuated with Khan in DDLJ, was the first woman to tag him sexy. \u201cI believed her, and then I started believing it myself,\u201d he beams. Now, when she gets him to try a Louis Vuitton leather jacket, talking it up saying, \u201cIt\u2019s not out in stores yet\u201d he asks his best boy to pull out a snakeskin Louis Vuitton jacket from his wardrobe that will \u201cnever be out.\u201d When it is brought to him, Adajania asks if he plans to wear it. \u201cNah, I only wanted to show off,\u201d he says, breaking into a smile that dissolves any constructed ideas of arrogance. All of us laugh. He laughs the loudest.\nKhan is so brazen about his starhood, so earnestly entrenched in the belief that he is Lord Commander, that it doesn\u2019t reek of conceit. It\u2019s hard to get rubbed the wrong way when he admits that he\u2019s been spoilt by the industry, by directors like Yash Chopra who called him \u2018badmaash\u2019 and Subhash Ghai who still calls him \u2018ladla\u2019. Talking incessantly between each shot and cigarette puffs\u2014\u201cThe interview isn\u2019t over till the drinks are over\u201d\u2014he\u2019s a remarkably articulate man whose references jump from the Mahabharata to Picasso and Majid Majidi to Muhammad Ali (Ali is his only real hero, he says. And Caitlyn Jenner). There are comic soliloquies. There are extravagant admissions. He declares Monica Bellucci is the love of his life; the only T-shirt he owns with anything printed on it is a Dolce & Gabbana number with her face on it.\nThe man is a bonafide multiple narrative. There is the narrative of the lower-middle-class boy from Delhi whose parents died in debt. The boy who came to Mumbai and stood on Marine Drive and said, \u201cI want to own the city,\u201d and then went about systematically doing whatever it took to achieve that: dancing at weddings, doing action comedies, buying an IPL team. There\u2019s the other narrative of the reluctant star. The one who started off as a diligent actor on stage and television, branching off to work with directors as diverse as Mani Ratnam and Mani Kaul. The one who was chosen by audiences to be their poster boy. He played along at first because he liked it, and then he began to really believe it.\nI like the second narrative better. Because there is an element of the unknown to his success; a je ne sais quoi to his appeal. There are things that we don\u2019t understand. Khan doesn\u2019t either. Perhaps that is why he\u2019s superstitious about things like the number 555.\nBy his own admission, he\u2019s been miscast in most roles. He got a headstart in the game by breaking the rules early. Back in the \u201980s, doing theatre with Barry John in Delhi, he played gay characters. By the time his seventh film released, he\u2019d already played a scheming murderer (Baazigar), a psychopath (Darr), and a younger lover with a nude scene in a Madame Bovary-inspired saga (Maya Memsaab). Everybody told him he was making a mistake when he played the bad guy in his twenties. But it worked. When he moved on to play romantic leads in his thirties, he was told he wouldn\u2019t be taken seriously. \u201cWhen I showed early rushes of DDLJ to my producer friend Ratan [Jain], you know the scene on the bridge when I\u2019m willing Kajol to turn back\u2026 he thought I was going to throw her off the bridge. He said I didn\u2019t look trustworthy enough to be a romantic hero. But I turned out to be a pretty convincing lover, didn\u2019t I?\u201d\nDespite his charm and largesse, Khan is patronising towards the younger lot. \u201cThey\u2019re all fantastic. They\u2019re all better than me,\u201d he says. \u201cBut a lot of things have to fall in place at the beginning for everything to go right. You can get it by playing your cards right but to become who I did, you need to get a good hand. I got three aces. How often do you get three aces?\u201d\nDoes the movie Fan hit close to home? Is he his own biggest fan? I can\u2019t help but ask. Khan nods vigorously, but it does seem that Khan the Actor is a fan of Khan the Star. He is, however, generous about sharing the credit for his success (\u201cNinety per cent of my hits were because of the women I was paired with. They\u2019re extremely talented and they make me look good,\u201d he says). The best directors he\u2019s had, he says, conveyed what they wanted without saying much. \u201cYashji [Yash Chopra] used to call any physical contact \u2018lovemaking\u2019. He would say, \u2018Make her fall in love with you\u2026 Tu lovemaking kar le,\u2019\u201d he remembers. \u201cI could sense what he wanted. When you get too specific, you become a manager. Creativity spouts from a free flow. Amongst the younger lot of directors, I see some of this in Maneesh Sharma.\u201d\nBut for all his talk of art, Khan has batted on the big-ticket team for a while now. Ketan Mehta, whose Maya Memsaab (1993) was the first film Khan had signed, makes allowances for his prot\u00e9g\u00e9. \u201cThere are phases in life. This is his phase of stardom. He\u2019s smart enough to know that he has cast himself in a comfort zone now\u2026 One hopes that in time he will dig deeper for the talent within,\u201d says Mehta.\nKhan concedes that somewhere down the line, his palatial Mumbai home, Mannat, and his company took precedence over creative output. But he isn\u2019t apologetic about his naked pursuit of wealth. Being rich for him isn\u2019t about owning this trailer or a private jet (coming soon, he assures me). \u201cIt\u2019s about going to a shop and being able to buy both shirts. The one you like and the one you\u2019re unsure of. I\u2019ve been poor, very poor. I equated failure with poverty. When you see so many quick changes in your life\u2014debt, death, success\u2014you can\u2019t help but become a bit spiritual about it. I just want to be able to buy both shirts.\u201d Khan married his wife, Gauri, very young and calls their brood of three children the focal point of his life. While both Aryan and Suhana have been packed off to London to study\u2014the youngest, AbRam, is two and a half\u2014he\u2019s keen for them to be in the movies, especially his daughter, Suhana. \u201cI\u2019d be thrilled if she was on the cover of Vogue. I want her to be an actor, to act as raw as possible. I want her to do everything I didn\u2019t do.\u201d\nBack at the set, Lana Del Rey\u2019s impassioned voice wafts from portable speakers. The lyrics, \u2018Will you still love me when I\u2019m no longer young and beautiful\u2019, hang in the studio air thick with smoke as Khan poses with a model less than half his age\u2014a model who famously dated teen heart-throb Justin Bieber. What about ageing? If Khan is worried, he isn\u2019t telling. The actress he made his movie debut with is dead. Alia Bhatt, the next actress he will shoot with, is 22. He admits he\u2019s seen her grow up. His lasting appeal is evinced by the generations of women he\u2019s worked with. Three generations, he counts, not doing any favours for the gender stereotypes in the film industry. Kajol remains special (\u201cI think I\u2019m one of the few people she listens to in the film world\u201d). \u201cI would have liked to do a more mature love story with Kajol, you know, where I\u2019m 45 and she\u2019s 40. Dilwale is a flashback and flash-now. It would be silly of us to play college students like we did in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998). But if we\u2019re playing young people in a flashback, it\u2019s easier for audiences to grasp\u2026 yeh toh pehle ka tha, abhi woh aise hi hai,\u201d he laughs. The younger actresses he\u2019s launched, such as Anushka Sharma and Deepika Padukone, remain extremely reverential. \u201cThey\u2019ll come anywhere if I call,\u201d he boasts. So he\u2019s not worried about giving casting directors sleepless nights? \u201cDarling, every young girl would come with me,\u201d he says.\nThe 50th birthday has sprung questions of posterity and legacy\u2014a topic that bores him.\nHe recalls an interview with Joseph Heller where the interviewer kept needling him about why he hadn\u2019t written another Catch-22. Heller had replied, \u201cNeither has anyone else.\u201d\nHe doesn\u2019t have his Catch-22 yet. \u201cWhen I came to Mumbai, I wanted to make five movies my children would remember me for. I still haven\u2019t made them. Till I do, I\u2019ll have to keep working like this.\u201d He\u2019s raring to play the quintessential tough guy; the kind that shoots somebody\u2019s head off if they speak out of turn. \u201cSomething like L\u00e9on: The Professional,\u201d he says.\nThe plan for now is to make three movies a year for the next five years. Then enroll in a short-term programme in an American filmmaking school to brush up his skills. \u201cI\u2019m very nervous about making a film\u2026 I\u2019m not a stories guy but I know I want to make an action comedy,\u201d he says. This is a resolution he renewed six months ago. One doesn\u2019t know if it will stick though. Khan confesses he has a tough time keeping resolutions, including the one to not smoke as much. The other big ambition is to build a world-class movie-making studio in Mumbai. \u201cThe older guys did it. It\u2019s too expensive now but every two years or so I get this fever. A couple of times I came close to it but there\u2019s just too much bureaucracy. I told [the ministers], I know how to make films, my life is about films. Let me do it. I don\u2019t want to name it after me or my father. I just want to do this for the movies.\u201d\nHis boundless energy has caused family and friends to panic\u2014his latest fascination is zipping around on a hoverboard. \u201cMy family tells me I shouldn\u2019t do my stunts any more\u2026 I got injured recently while shooting for Raees and my daughter forbade me from going back on set for three weeks. I felt I was punished. I don\u2019t know how to explain it\u2026 I like working. I\u2019m happiest when I\u2019m on set.\u201d He believes genius is prolific. \u201cIt\u2019s the ability to go at it again and again. If Ra.One didn\u2019t quite work, there\u2019ll be a Ra.Two. I\u2019ll keep going at it till I get it right.\u201d Shah Rukh Khan will never take a break. He recalls an anecdote from early on in his career, when he\u2019d flopped down on set and declared he couldn\u2019t do it anymore. The choreographer Saroj Khan had slapped him, saying she\u2019s seen times when there was no work in the industry. \u201cI\u2019ve never said anything to that effect since,\u201d he says.\nWhen we wind up the shoot, he invites the entire crew to his trailer. Drinks are poured. Kebabs arrive on platters. It\u2019s 4.30am and some of us are fading. Khan, scheduled to be back on the sets of Dilwale at 9am, is in no hurry to leave. He is contemplating a stopover at the gym. So, while the rest of us peel away to go to our beds, Shah Rukh Khan will go about Ramoji\u2014itself an embodiment of what movie magic can build. Sleep, he says, is a waste of time. He has promises to keep. And miles to go.\nStyled by Anaita Shroff Adajania, Hair: Raj Gupta (Shah Rukh); Gabriel Georgiou/Anima Creative Management (Shanina), Make-up: Arun Indulkar (Shah Rukh); Rosario Belmonte/Anima Creative Management (Shanina), Photographer\u2019s assistant: Vijit Gupta, Assistant stylists: Priyanka Kapadia; Fabio Immediato, Production: Srinath Babu; Divya Jagwani, Fashion assistant: Aishwarya Reddy, Production assistant: Saakshi Kaushik, Location courtesy: Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad",

        "title": "SPECIAL BULLETIN: North Carolina's New Mechanic's Lien Law - The Ground Has Shifted - Ward and Smith, P.A.",
        "raw_content": "SPECIAL BULLETIN: North Carolina's New Mechanic's Lien Law - The Ground Has Shifted\nSPECIAL BULLETIN: North Carolina's New Mec\u2026\nOn July 12, 2012, North Carolina Session Laws 2012-158 and 2012-175 became law. These laws significantly change North Carolina's mechanic's lien and public project bond statutes. In order to continue to receive the rights and protections provided by these statutes, anyone engaged in the construction process will need to understand \u2013 and strictly comply with \u2013 these new provisions.\nThe Existing Mechanic's Lien Law and the Perceived Need for Change\nA \"mechanic's lien,\" sometimes referred to as a \"contractor's lien,\" is a secured interest in real property or funds benefitting contractors and subcontractors[1] who improve a parcel of real property located in North Carolina (\"Real Property\"), but who are not paid for those improvements as required by their contract with the owner of the Real Property or another contractor or subcontractor. If the lien claimant contracted directly with the owner of the Real Property, then the lien claimant is a \"general contractor\" or, in the terminology of the statute, a \"contractor,\" and has a secured interest in the Real Property that the contractor improved. If, on the other hand, the lien claimant contracted with a contractor or a subcontractor of a contractor, then the claimant is considered a \"subcontractor\" and is entitled to assert a lien upon funds in the hands of upper-tier subcontractors, the contractor, and the owner where such funds are owed \"downward\" to the claimant, but is not entitled to assert a lien directly on the title to the improved Real Property.\nThe existing system for asserting a lien is relatively simple. A contractor who is not paid for its work on a project by the owner of the Real Property can file, within 120 days after the date it last furnished labor or materials to the Real Property (commonly called the \"last furnishing\"), a \"Claim of Lien on Real Property\" with the Clerk of Court of the county where the Real Property is located. The contractor is then required to file a lawsuit against the owner to enforce the lien within 180 days after the contractor's last furnishing. The priority of the contractor's lien on the Real Property relates back to the first date the contractor furnished labor or materials to the Real Property (commonly called the \"first furnishing\").\nOn the other hand, a subcontractor who is not paid timely cannot file a \"direct\" lien on the Real Property, but can serve upon its upper-tier subcontractors (if any), the contractor, and the owner a \"Notice of Claim of Lien Upon Funds.\" If money is owed \"downward\" from the owner to the contractor, from the contractor to the intervening subcontractors (if any), and then on to the subcontractor-claimant, then service of the Notice of Claim of Lien Upon Funds creates a secured interest in favor of the subcontractor-lien claimant against that owed money. If any party higher in the chain of funds disbursement then ignores the claimant's Notice and pays another party instead or, as it is sometimes stated, \"pays over\" the lien claimant's lien upon funds (that is, makes a payment without insuring that the lien claimant's claim is satisfied or sufficient funds are withheld to satisfy the claim), then that party becomes directly liable to the lien claimant to the extent of the wrongful payment. Furthermore, to the extent the subcontractor has a valid lien upon funds held by the owner, the subcontractor can \"step into the shoes\" (a legal concept called \"subrogation\") of the contractor and thereby assert against the owner any lien on Real Property available to the contractor.\nThe primary driving force behind the 2012 changes to the lien and bond statutes was the fact that since the liens can \"relate back\" in time, they constitute \"hidden\" liens on the Real Property which do not appear on the public record so that a lender or buyer can protect against them. Because the contractor's lien on Real Property becomes effective as of the date on which labor, materials, or services are first provided to improve the Real Property and there was no formal public record of when this may have occurred, there was no certain way for a buyer or lender to determine whether there was a possible lien, when it might have become effective, and whether it might take priority over other interests in the Real Property.\nThe Lien Agent Amendment \u2013 Session Law 2012-158\nThe key component of Session Law 2012-158, commonly called the \"Lien Agent Amendment,\" is the creation of a very important new player in the construction process: the Lien Agent. The Lien Agent Amendment applies in situations where the first furnishing of labor or materials to the Real Property occurs on or after April 1, 2013. The Lien Agent Amendment does not apply to jobs where the cost of the improvement is projected to be less than $30,000 at the time the building permit is issued or to additions or improvements to an existing single-family residential dwelling that is also used as the owner's residence.\nThe Lien Agent Amendment requires that, for any construction project to which it applies, the owner of the Real Property must designate a Lien Agent no later than when the owner first contracts with any person or entity to improve the Real Property. A list of available Lien Agents will be maintained by the North Carolina Department of Insurance. The owner will designate the Lien Agent by giving the designated Lien Agent written notice of the Agent's selection, which will include a description of the Real Property to be improved. The owner will also be required to identify the Lien Agent to any potential claimant who requests such information within seven days after the request.\nAn owner or contractor will not be able to obtain a building permit unless the Lien Agent's contact information is provided to the issuing inspections department. Further, the Lien Agent's contact information must be a conspicuous part of the building permit, and must be conspicuously posted on the Real Property for the duration of the project.\nContractors and subcontractors will be required to provide lower-tier subcontractors who are furnishing labor or materials to be used in improving the Real Property, but who will not actually perform the services on, or deliver the materials to, the Real Property, (for example, material suppliers) with the Lien Agent's contact information within three business days after contracting with the lower-tier subcontractor. The best tactic will be to put the Lien Agent's contact information in the contracts and subcontracts applicable to the project at issue.\nIn order to preserve lien rights directly against the Real Property, every potential lien claimant will be required to provide to the Lien Agent a \"Notice to Lien Agent\" which contains the following information:\nThe potential lien claimant's name, mailing address, telephone number, fax number, and email address;\nIdentification of the party with whom the potential lien claimant contracted to improve the Real Property;\nA description of the Real Property improved in sufficient detail to identify it; and,\nNotice of the potential claimant's right to subsequently pursue a Claim of Lien on Real Property.\nThe Notice to Lien Agent may be submitted prior to, during, or subsequent to the performance of the work or delivery of the materials in question. However, to preserve and assert a lien against the Real Property (as opposed to a lien against pending funds), one of the following must occur:\nThe Notice to Lien Agent must be served on the Lien Agent no later than 15 days after the first furnishing of labor or materials to the Real Property by the potential lien claimant; or,\nThe Lien Agent must be served with the Notice to Lien Agent prior to a conveyance of the Real Property; or,\nThe potential lien claimant must file a Claim of Lien on Real Property with the Clerk of Court of the county where the Real Property is located prior to a conveyance of the Real Property.\nFurthermore, the lien cannot relate back and have priority over a deed of trust encumbering the Real Property unless:\nThe Notice to Lien Agent is served upon the Lien Agent within 15 days after the first furnishing of labor or materials by the lien claimant; or,\nThe Notice to Lien Agent is served on the Lien Agent prior to the recording of the deed of trust at issue.\nThus, if a potential lien claimant fails to serve the Notice to Lien Agent within 15 days after commencing work, then the claimant will risk either losing its lien claim altogether or, at a minimum, losing the priority of its lien claim as to deeds of trust recorded after the start of the project.\nThe requirement that a Claim of Lien on Real Property be filed with the Clerk of Court within 120 days after a lien claimant's last furnishing of labor or materials to the Real Property remains unchanged. Likewise, the requirement that a lawsuit to enforce the lien be filed within 180 days after the lien claimant's last furnishing of labor or materials also remains unchanged. These requirements continue to apply to both contractors asserting direct liens against the Real Property and subcontractors asserting subrogation liens against the Real Property. Similarly, a subcontractor's lien upon funds and the manner in which it is asserted will not be affected by the Lien Agent Amendment. However, a subcontractor's ability to assert, through subrogation, a contractor's lien directly against the Real Property will be affected by whether and when the subcontractor has served a Notice to Lien Agent on the Lien Agent.\nThe purpose of requiring notice of potential lien claims to be served on the Lien Agent at the start of the project or as soon as the contractor or subcontractor is hired to either perform services or provide materials to the Real Property is so that the Lien Agent can act as a clearing house for lien claims, thereby making potential lien claims public information and no longer \"hidden.\"\nThe Secondary Amendment \u2013 Session Law 2012-175\nSession Law 2012-175, commonly called the \"Secondary Amendment,\" makes a number of changes to the exercise of lien rights. All of the provisions of the Secondary Amendment described below go into effect on January 1, 2013.\nFirst, Claims of Lien on Real Property will be required not only to be filed with the Clerk of Court, but also to be served upon the owner of the Real Property and, if it is a subcontractor's subrogation lien, the contractor. Failure to serve the correct parties with the Claim of Lien on Real Property can cause the lien to fail altogether.\nSecond, the following new, additional information must be included in the Claim of Lien on Real Property:\nIf the lien is asserted by a subcontractor, the name of the contractor through whom the subcontractor is asserting the lien; and,\nA certification by the lien claimant that the required parties have been served with the Claim of Lien on Real Property.\nThird, it will be clarified that a subcontractor's lien upon funds \"arises\" upon the first furnishing of labor or materials to the Real Property by the subcontractor, and that the service of a Notice of Claim of Lien Upon Funds only \"perfects\" the lien, thus making it legally enforceable. This change avoids a problem with the potential loss of rights that might occur when an upper-tier party files bankruptcy.\nFourth, it will also be made clear that to establish priority, a subcontractor asserting a lien against the Real Property by way of subrogation to a contractor's right may use either its own first and last furnishing dates, or the contractor's first and last furnishing dates.\nFinally, there will be increased penalties that can be assessed against parties for making false statements in lien waivers:\nThe applicable licensing board for the contractor or subcontractor making the false statement may pursue revocation of the party's license; and,\nThe penalties applicable to making a false statement will also be made applicable to public, bonded jobs.\nChanges to North Carolina's Public Project Bond Statute \u2013 the \"Little Miller Act\"\nThe Secondary Amendment also includes several changes to North Carolina's public project bond statute (also known as the \"Little Miller Act\").\nFirst, a contractor on a construction project where the owner of the Real Property is the State of North Carolina or one of its subdivisions will be obligated to provide a copy of the statutorily required bond to a subcontractor within seven days after a request from that subcontractor.\nSecond, all subcontractors, regardless of the party with whom they contract (whether it be a contractor or any other subcontractor), will be required to provide a \"Notice of Public Subcontract\" to the contractor. The contents of the Notice of Public Subcontract will be as follows:\nThe name and address of the subcontractor giving notice;\nA general description of the Real Property;\nA general description of the subcontractor's contract; and,\nA general description of the labor and materials furnished.\nThe Notice of Public Subcontract should be provided no later than 75 days after the subcontractor's first furnishing of labor or materials. If the Notice of Public Subcontract is sent later or not at all, there is a substantial risk that the subcontractor will lose its ability to recover from the project's payment bond some or all of the amounts it may ultimately be owed.\nFinally, the contractor on a public construction project is now required to pass down to its subcontractors a \"Contractor's Project Statement\" which must include the following:\nThe name of the project;\nThe physical address of the project;\nThe name of the owner of the Real Property;\nThe name, phone number, and mailing address of the contractor's registered agent; and,\nThe name and address of the principal place of business of the surety issuing the payment bond.\nSubcontractors are required to pass down to their subcontractors copies of the Contractor's Project Statement.\nThe changes to North Carolina's mechanic's lien and public project bond statutes are significant. Unless those who are in the construction process understand \u2013 and comply with \u2013 these changes, they may lose valuable rights and protections that are provided by these statutes.\n[1] \"Subcontractor\" as used in this Bulletin includes material suppliers.",

        "raw_content": "Cloud centers bring high-tech flash but not many jobs to beaten-down towns\nApple\u2019s new data center in Maiden, N.C. (Todd Sumlin/THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER)\nMAIDEN, N.C. \u2014 Here in this once-thriving town of furniture makers and textile mills, where Main Street businesses have vanished, nearby fast-food joints have closed and unemployment is rampant, government officials have lined up behind a flashy digital answer to all the heartache: The cloud.\nJust off Startown Road, on the edge of town, Apple recently completed a massive $1 billion data center to help power its cloud computing products.\nTotal new full-time jobs running the facility: 50.\nApple\u2019s data center has been a disappointing development for many residents, who can\u2019t comprehend how expensive facilities stretching across hundreds of acres can create so few jobs, especially after thousands of positions in the region have been lost to cheaper foreign competition. But in the newer digital economy, capital investments that a generation ago would have created thousands of new positions often equal only a handful today, with computers and software processing the heavy lifting while the key programming is often done by engineers back in Silicon Valley.\n\u201cApple really doesn\u2019t mean a thing to this town,\u201d said Tony Parker, the owner of Temple Furniture, one of the last surviving furniture makers in Maiden.\nHis son-in-law, Kelly McRee, the company\u2019s operations manager, said: \u201cApple was the apple of everybody\u2019s eye, but that\u2019s about it. It was something for everyone to ooh and aah over.\u201d\nThat hasn\u2019t stopped state and local officials from awarding huge financial incentives to some of the biggest names in computing \u2014 Apple, Google, Facebook \u2014 to locate their data centers in the battered North Carolina foothills region, where unemployment is near 13 percent. Cloud computing is a fast-growing sector of technology, allowing companies to store data and run software on off-site servers. The data centers that power the cloud and run programs such as Gmail and iTunes employ thousands of servers but only dozens of people.\nThe mismatch between investment and jobs created is illustrative of the structural unemployment challenges the country faces, experts say. Blue-collar workers laid off during the downturn find far fewer job openings in the high-tech sector and usually lack the necessary skills. The Obama administration has called this the \u201cbrawny-man problem,\u201d and one key piece of evidence for it is in North Carolina\u2019s unemployment rate. Despite cozying up to iconic technology firms, the state still has the one of the highest overall jobless rates in the country, at 10.5 percent.\nApple\u2019s data center is also supposed to create 250 indirect contracting jobs for maintenance and security. But many in this close-knit town of about 3,400 people \u2014 it essentially shuts down Friday nights for high school football \u2014 do not know anyone working at Apple.\nSamantha Saunders, the longtime owner of a Main Street hardware store, where the old hardwood floors creak and a fresh-paint scent wafts through the cramped aisles, said the only contact she has had with an Apple employee is when one came in to make keys for the facility.\nAsked how tough things were in the town, Saunders said, \u201cThe extreme of tough.\u201d\nThe consensus among some residents is that the only people who benefited from Apple\u2019s data center are Donnie and Kathy Fulbright. Apple paid them $1.7 million for their land, and the Fulbrights built themselves a new home nearby.\nMost were not as lucky. The other day, just up the road in Hickory, Steven Sumpter arrived at the state unemployment office just before closing time after losing his job cutting cloth at a furniture factory. He looked tired. At 33, he\u2019s a single father, and he discovered when he tried to register for assistance that his former employer terminated him instead of laying him off, meaning he was not eligible for benefits.\nHe laughed when asked about whether data centers might provide him a future.\n\u201cPeople from around here don\u2019t get those jobs,\u201d he said. \u201cReally, furniture is the only thing I know. Those data jobs are not for us.\u201d\nThat sentiment has not stopped governments from falling over themselves to attract companies such as Apple. North Carolina legislators, after debating for less than a minute, amended the state\u2019s corporate income tax law to win Apple $46 million in tax breaks, according to published reports.\nState officials concede that cloud computing does not create as many jobs as traditional industries, but they argue that construction jobs are important and that data centers are just one tactic in a host of economic development strategies, including incubating high-tech corridors and cultivating advanced manufacturers such as aerospace firms.\nStill, after Facebook announced plans to open a data center in the state, North Carolina Gov. Bev Perdue said, \u201cThe investment and jobs at the data center will be a boon to that region of the state.\u201d\nIn Maiden, local authorities cut Apple\u2019s property taxes by 50 percent and personal taxes by 85 percent. Town Manager William \u201cTodd\u201d Herms said Apple\u2019s presence boosts the town\u2019s tax base and helps it lower overall taxes, not to mention providing an influx of construction jobs.\n\u201cI think the average citizen sees it affecting life,\u201d Herms said. \u201cThey are a great corporate neighbor.\u201d\nBut analysts who study the economics of data centers say the overall benefits for communities such as Maiden are fleeting.\n\u201cData centers are there to house a factory of IT systems,\u201d said Michelle Bailey, an International Data Corp. vice president who studies data center trends and consults with municipalities about their benefits. \u201cThere is not an immediate payback \u2014 there\u2019s no doubt about that. What you hope is that you can modernize the town, hope it can be relevant in the future and attract more companies.\u201d\nTodd Cherry, director of the Center for Economic Research and Policy Analysis at Appalachian State University, said data centers \u201care more of a political benefit for those communities and politicians than for the community itself. They give the region the psychological benefit of having someone who wants them \u2014 somebody wants to come there and locate there.\u201d\nLocal residents who manage to find work in data centers are treated like lottery winners. While Apple did not return a request for comment, Google officials made three local employees available for interviews at its three-year-old, $600 million data center, which employs more than 100 people, including contractors.\nTwo of the workers interviewed had previously worked in the furniture industry but went back to school to earn associate degrees in technology. They help upgrade and fix servers inside Google\u2019s enormous and heavily secured data center, which is decorated with NASCAR memorabilia and pictures of legendary drivers such as Dale Earnhardt. They have found working with data to be transformative.\n\u201cI was told in my past jobs, \u2018We don\u2019t pay you to think.\u2019 You would never hear that here,\u201d said Paul Bowman, 39. \u201cI don\u2019t have to worry anymore that I will wake up and discover they are moving overseas. I have a more relaxed sense in my job security.\u201d\nChristopher Hood, a 22-year-old data center worker who used to manufacture tables, agreed.\n\u201cTechnology is a growing industry, and especially Google \u2014 they are like the big dog in the industry,\u201d he said. \u201cFurniture went overseas, and now there\u2019s no future in that.\u201d\nHe need only look at his own family to confirm that. His father and his aunt, both furniture workers, have been out of work more than three years. They do odd jobs here and there to make whatever money they can. They are struggling. Data centers are probably not in their future.\n\u201cThey\u2019re kind of old-school,\u201d Hood said. \u201cThey don\u2019t get into computers and stuff.\u201d\nMore news from Post Business :\nAT&T, T-Mobile drop FCC merger applications\nHigh oil prices fuel economic worries\nBlack Friday 2011: News, deals and more\nMichael S.

Once released from prison, he joined a D.C.-area think tank focused on studying extremism, saying he hoped to \u201cmake amends\u201d through his work.\nBut Morton, now 38, again faces legal troubles after being arrested and accused of bringing cocaine to meet a prostitute.

He was released in 2015 after serving less than a third of his 11\u00bd -year prison sentence and hired by GWU the following year.\nAccording to court documents, Morton was arrested on Dec. 28 in a sting operation by Fairfax police. He answered an ad on Backpage.com for a prostitute, police said. When he showed up at the Governor House Inn & Suites in Falls Church, he was arrested. Police say they found cocaine and a glass pipe in his pack of Marlboro cigarettes. In his car, they said they found another device for smoking crack cocaine. He is charged with possession with manufacturing a controlled substance and residing in a bawdy place.\n[The feds billed him as a threat to American freedom. Now they\u2019re paying him for help.]\nMorton could not be reached for comment, and his lawyer did not return a request for comment. He is scheduled to appear in federal court in Alexandria on Tuesday and in Fairfax County court on April 19.\nMorton\u2019s violent exhortations on the Revolution Muslim website were blamed for inspiring Colleen LaRose, who tried to kill a Swedish cartoonist, and Jose Pimentel, who plotted a New York City bombing, among others. Morton pleaded guilty in 2012 to conspiring to solicit murder, making threatening communications and using the Internet to place others in fear.\nIn an interview last fall with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Morton said that after his plea and while in prison, he began doing work for federal agents. According to court documents and a defense attorney involved, after his release Morton was paid by the FBI to help build a case against a supporter of the Islamic State.\n[George Washington University hires a former al-Qaeda recruiter]\nThe FBI also relied on Morton to help demystify the radicalization process, and he took on a similar role at GWU.\nIn a 2016 interview with The Washington Post, Morton said he hoped that work would give him \u201ca bit of an ability to make amends.\u201d\nHe explained how what he described as a traumatic childhood and substance abuse issues left him alienated, searching for a personal transformation and a countercultural worldview. He said he found it first by reading \u201cThe Autobiography of Malcolm X\u201d during a brief jail stint at age 20. During a second incarceration, Morton converted to Islam.\nA fellow prisoner told him a war was coming between Muslims and non-Muslims, and he took up that cause, he told CSIS, fusing extremist politics to his new religious fervor. After his release, even as he graduated from Metropolitan College of New York and earned a master\u2019s degree in international affairs from Columbia University in 2008, Morton associated with violent ideologues and became one himself.\nBefore his arrest in the federal case, Morton told CSIS, he had begun questioning his views. The way he was treated by agents, he said, made him start to see the good in the U.S. justice system.",

        "raw_content": "Transcript: President Trump\u2019s remarks on leaving the Paris climate deal, annotated\nBy Team Fix ,\nCallum Borchers and\nPresident Trump has decided to pull the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement. Here's what you need to know. (Daron Taylor/The Washington Post)\nPresident Trump and Vice President Pence announced that the United States would withdraw from the landmark Paris climate agreement. Read about the move here, and read their full remarks below.\nTo see an annotation, select the yellow-highlighted text. Want to join? Sign up or in at Genius.\nPENCE: Good afternoon. Secretary Mnuchin, Secretary Ross, EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt, members of congress, distinguished guests, on behalf of the first family, welcome to the White House.\nYou know it's the greatest privilege of my life to serve as vice president to a president who is fighting every day to make America great again.\nSince the first day of this administration President Donald Trump has been working tirelessly to keep the promises that he made to the American people.\nPresident Trump has been reforming healthcare, enforcing our laws, ending illegal immigration, rebuilding our military and this president has been rolling back excessive regulations and unfair trade practices that were stifling American jobs.\nThanks to President Trump's leadership, American businesses are growing again, investing in America again, and they're creating jobs in this country instead of shipping jobs overseas. Thanks to President Donald Trump, America is back.\nAnd just last week, we all witnessed the bold leadership of an American president on the world stage putting America first. From the Middle East to Europe as leader of the free world, President Trump reaffirmed historic alliances, forged new relationships, and called on the wider world to confront the threat of terrorism in new and renewed ways.\nAnd by the action the president will announce today, the American people and the wider world will see once again our president is choosing to put American jobs and American consumers first. Our president is choosing to put American energy and American industry first. And by his action today, President Donald Trump is choosing to put the forgotten men and women of America first.\nSo with gratitude for his leadership...\n... and admiration for his unwavering commitment to the American people, it is now my high honor and distinct privilege to introduce to all of you the president of the United States of America, President Donald Trump.\nTRUMP: Thank you very much. Thank you.\nI would like to begin by addressing the terrorist attack in Manila. We're closely monitoring the situation. And I will continue to give updates if anything happens during this period of time, but it is really very sad as to what's going on throughout the world with terror. Our thoughts and our prayers are with all of those affected. Before we discuss the Paris accord, I'd like to begin with an update on our tremendous, absolutely tremendous economic progress since election day on November 8th. The economy is starting to come back and very, very rapidly. We've added $3.3 trillion in stock market value to our economy, and more than a million private sector jobs.\nI've just returned from a trip overseas where we concluded nearly $350 billion of military and economic development for the United States, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs. It was a very, very successful trip, believe me.\nIn my meetings at the G-7, we have taken historic steps to demand fair and reciprocal trade that gives Americans a level playing field against other nations. We're also working very hard for peace in the Middle East, and perhaps even peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians. Our attacks on terrorism are greatly stepped up -- and you see that -- you see it all over -- from the previous administration, including getting many other countries to make major contributions to the fight against terror. Big, big contributions are being made by countries that weren't doing so much in the form of contributions.\nOne by one, we are keeping the promises I made to the American people during my campaign for president, whether it's cutting job- killing regulations, appointing and confirming a tremendous Supreme Court justice, putting in place tough new ethics rules, achieving a record reduction in illegal immigration on our southern border, or bringing jobs, plants and factories back into the United States at numbers which no one, until this point, thought even possible.\nAnd believe me, we've just begun. The fruits of our labor will be seen very shortly even more so.\nOn these issues and so many more, we're following through on our commitments, and I don't want anything to get in our way. I am fighting every day for the great people of this country.\nTherefore, in order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and its citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate accord...\n... thank you. Thank you -- but begin negotiations to reenter either the Paris accord or an -- really entirely new transaction, on terms that are fair to the United States, its businesses, its workers, its people, its taxpayers.\nSo we're getting out, but we will start to negotiate, and we will see if we can make a deal that's fair. And if we can, that's great. And if we can't, that's fine. As president, I can put no other consideration before the wellbeing of American citizens. The Paris climate accord is simply the latest example of Washington entering into an agreement that disadvantages the United States, to the exclusive benefit of other countries, leaving American workers, who I love, and taxpayers to absorb the cost in terms of lost jobs, lower wages, shuttered factories and vastly diminished economic production.\nThus, as of today, the United States will cease all implementation of the nonbinding Paris accord and the draconian financial and economic burdens the agreement imposes on our country.\nThis includes ending the implementation of the nationally determined contribution and, very importantly, the Green Climate Fund, which is costing the United States a vast fortune.\nCompliance with the terms of the Paris accord and the onerous energy restrictions it has placed on the United States could cost America as much as 2.7 million lost jobs by 2025, according to the National Economic Research Associates.\nThis includes 440,000 fewer manufacturing jobs -- not what we need. Believe me, this is not what we need -- including automobile jobs and the further decimation of vital American industries on which countless communities rely -- they rely for so much, and we would be giving them so little.\nAccording to the same study, by 2040, compliance with the commitments put into place by the previous administration would cut production for the following sectors: paper, down 12 percent; cement, down 23 percent; iron and steel, down 38 percent; coal, and I happen to love the coal miners, down 86 percent; natural gas, down 31 percent.\nTRUMP: The cost to the economy at this time would be close to $3 trillion in lost GDP and 6.5 million industrial jobs, while households would have 7,000 less income, and in many cases, much worse than that.\nNot only does this deal subject our citizens to harsh economic restrictions, it fails to live up to our environmental ideals. As someone who cares deeply about the environment, which I do, I cannot in good conscience support a deal that punishes the United States, which is what it does.\nThe world's leader in environmental protection, while imposing no meaningful obligations on the world's leading polluters. For example, under the agreement, China will be able to increase these emissions by a staggering number of years, 13. They can do whatever they want for 13 years. Not us.\nIndia makes its participation contingent on receiving billions and billions and billions of dollars in foreign aid from developed countries. There are many other examples. But the bottom line is that the Paris Accord is very unfair at the highest level to the United States.\nFurther, while the current agreement effectively blocks the development of clean coal in America, which it does. And the mines are starting to open up, having a big opening in two weeks, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, so many places. A big opening of a brand, new mine. It's unheard of. For many, many years that hasn't happened. They asked me if I'd go. I'm going to try.\nChina will be allowed to build hundreds of additional coal plants. So, we can't build the plants, but they can, according to this agreement. India will be allowed to double its coal production by 2020. Think of it. India can double their coal production. We're supposed to get rid of ours. Even Europe is allowed to continue construction of coal plants.\nIn short, the agreement doesn't eliminate coal jobs. It just transfers those jobs out of America and the United States, and ships them to foreign countries. This agreement is less about the climate and more about other countries gaining a financial advantage over the United States.\nThe rest of the world applauded when we signed the Paris Agreement. They went wild. They were so happy. For the simple reason that it put our country, the United States of America, which we all love, at a very, very big economic disadvantage. A cynic would say the obvious reason for economic competitors and their wish to see us remain in the agreement is so that we continue to suffer this self-inflicted major economic wound. We would find it very hard to compete with other countries from other parts of the world.\nWe have among the most abundant energy reserves in the planet, sufficient to lift millions of America's poorest workers out of poverty. Yet under this agreement, we are effectively putting these reserves under lock and key, taking away the great wealth of our nation, great wealth, phenomenal wealth.\nNot so long ago we had no idea we had such wealth. And leaving millions and millions of families trapped in poverty and joblessness. The agreement is a massive redistribution of United States wealth to other countries.\nTRUMP: At 1 percent growth, renewable sources of energy can meet some of our domestic demand. But at 3 or 4 percent growth, which I expect, we need all forms of available American energy, or our country...\n... will be at grave risk of brownouts and blackouts. Our businesses will come to a halt in many cases. And the American family will suffer the consequences in the form of lost jobs and a very diminished quality of life.\nEven if the Paris Agreement were implemented in full, with total compliance from all nations it is estimated it would only produce a two tenths of one degree - think of that, this much - Celsius reduction in global temperature by the year 2100.\nTiny - tiny amount. In fact, 14 days of carbon emissions from China alone would wipe out the gains from America and this is an incredible statistic - would totally wipe out the gains from America's expected reductions in the year 2030.\nAfter we have had to spend billions and billions of dollars, lost jobs, closed factories and suffered much higher energy costs for our businesses and for our homes.\nAs \"The Wall Street Journal\" wrote, this morning, \"The reality is that withdrawing is in America's economic interest and won't matter much to the climate. The United States under the Trump Administration will continue to be the cleanest and most environmentally friendly country on earth.\"\nWe'll be the cleanest. We're going to have the cleanest air. We're going to have the cleanest water. We will be environmentally friendly but we're not going to put our businesses out of work, we're not going to lose our jobs.\nWe're going to grow. We're going to grow rapidly.\nAnd I think you just read - it just came out minutes ago the small business report. Small businesses as of just now are booming, hiring people, one of the best reports they've seen in many years.\nI'm willing to immediately work with Democratic leaders to either negotiate our way back into Paris under the terms that are fair to the United States and its workers or to negotiate a new deal that protects our country and its tax payers.\nSo if the obstructionists want to get together with me, let's make them non-obstructionists. We will all sit down and we will get back into the deal and we'll make it good and we won't be closing up our factories and we won't be losing our jobs.\nAnd we'll sit down with the Democrats and all of the people that represent either the Paris Accord or something that we can do that's much better than the Paris Accord and I think the people of sour country will be thrilled.\nAnd I think then the people of the world will be thrilled. But until we do that we're out of the agreement.\nI will work to ensure that America remains the world's leader on environmental issue. But under a framework that is fair and where the burdens and responsibilities are equally shared among the many nations all around the world.\nNo responsible leader can put the workers and the people of their country at this debilitating and tremendous disadvantage.\nThe fact that the Paris deal hamstrings the United States while empowering some of the world's top polluting countries should dispel any doubt as to the real reason why foreign lobbyists wished to keep our magnificent country tied up and bound down by this agreement.\nIt's to give their country an economic edge over the United States.\nThat's not going to happen while I'm president, I'm sorry.\nMy job as president is to do everything within my power to give America a level playing field and to create the economic, regulatory and tax structures that make America the most prosperous and productive country on earth.\nAnd with the highest standard of living, and the highest standard of environmental protection.\nOur tax bill is moving along in Congress and I believe it's doing very well. I think a lot of people will be very pleasantly surprised. The Republicans are working very, very hard.\nWe'd love to have support from the Democrats, but we may have to go it alone, but it's going very well.\nThe Paris agreement handicaps the United States economy in order to win praise from the very foreign capitals and global activists that have long sought to gain wealth at our country's expense. They don't put America first. I do and I always will.\nThe same nations asking us to stay in the agreement are the countries that have collectively cost America trillions of dollars through tough trade practices and in many cases lax contributions to our critical military alliance. You see what's happening. It's pretty obvious to those that want to keep an open mind.\nAt what point does America get demeaned? At what point do they start laughing at us as a country? We want fair treatment for its citizens and we want fair treatment for our taxpayers. We don't want other leaders and other countries laughing at us anymore, and they won't be. They won't be.\nI promised I would exit or renegotiate any deal which fails to serve America's interests. Many trade deals will soon be under renegotiation. Very rarely do we have a deal that works for this country, but they'll soon be under renegotiation. The process has begun from day one, but now we're down to business.\nBeyond the severe energy restrictions inflicted by the Paris accord, it includes yet another scheme to redistribute wealth out of the United States through the so-called \"green climate fund\" -- nice name -- which calls for developed countries to send $100 billion to developing countries all on top of America's existing and massive foreign aid payments.\nSo we're going to be paying billions and billions and billions of dollars and we're already way ahead of anybody else. Many of the other countries haven't spent anything. And many of them will never pay one dime.\nThe green fund would likely obligate the United States to commit potentially tens of billions of dollars of which the United States has already handed over $1 billion. Nobody else is even close. Most of them haven't even paid anything -- including funds raided out of America's budget for the war against terrorism. That's where they came.\nBelieve me, they didn't come from me. They came just before I came into office. Not good. And not good the way they took the money.\nTRUMP: In 2015, the United Nations, departing top climate officials, reportedly described the $100 billion per year as \"peanuts.\" And stated that the $100 billion is the tail that wags the dog. In 2015, the green climate fund's executive director reportedly stated that estimated funding needed would increase to $450 billion per year after 2020, and nobody even knows where the money is going to. Nobody's been able to say where is it going to.\nOf course, the world's top polluters have no affirmative obligations under the green fund, which we terminate.\nAmerica is $20 trillion in debt. Cash-strapped cities cannot hire enough police officers or fix vital infrastructure. Millions of our citizens are out of work. And yet under the Paris accord, billions of dollars that ought to be invested right here in America will be sent to the very countries that have taken our factories and our jobs away from us.\nSo think of that. There are serious legal and constitutional issues as well. Foreign leaders in Europe, Asia and across the world should not have more to say with respect to the U.S. economy than our own citizens and their elected representatives. Thus, our withdrawal from the agreement represents a reassertion of America's sovereignty.\nOur Constitution is unique among all nations of the world. And it is my highest obligation and greatest honor to protect it. And I will. Staying in the agreement could also pose serious obstacles for the United States as we begin the process of unlocking the restrictions on America's abundant energy reserves, which we have started very strongly.\nIt would once have been unthinkable that an international agreement could prevent the United States from conducting its own domestic economic affairs. But this is the new reality we face if we do not leave the agreement or if we do not negotiate a far better deal.\nThe risks grow as historically these agreements only tend to become more and more ambitious over time. In other words, the Paris framework is just a starting point, as bad as it is, not an end point. And exiting the agreement protects the United States from future intrusions on the United States sovereignty and massive future legal liability. Believe me, we have massive legal liability if we stay in. As president, I have one obligation, and that obligation is to the American people. The Paris accord would undermine our economy, hamstring our workers, weaken our sovereignty, impose unacceptable legal risk, and put us at a permanent disadvantage to the other countries of the world.\nIt is time to exit the Paris accord.\nAnd time to pursue a new deal that protects the environment, our companies, our citizens, and our country. It is time to put Youngstown, Ohio, Detroit, Michigan, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, along with many, many other locations within our great country, before Paris, France. It is time to make America great again.\nThank you very much. Very important.\nTranscript provided by ASC Services, LLC, on behalf of Bloomberg Finance LP (Government Division)",

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s national security advisers warned him not to congratulate Putin. He did it anyway.\nPresident Trump did not follow specific warnings from his national security advisers Tuesday when he congratulated Russian President Vladi\u00admir Putin on his reelection \u2014 including a section in his briefing materials in all-capital letters stating \u201cDO NOT CONGRATULATE,\u201d according to officials familiar with the call.\nTrump also chose not to heed talking points from aides instructing him to condemn the recent poisoning of a former Russian spy in Britain with a powerful nerve agent, a case that both the British and U.S. governments have blamed on Moscow.\nThe president\u2019s conversation with Putin, which Trump described as a \u201cvery good call,\u201d prompted fresh criticism of his muted tone toward one of the United States\u2019 biggest geopolitical rivals amid the special counsel investigation into Russia\u2019s election interference and the Trump campaign\u2019s contacts with Russian officials.\nAlthough the Trump administration has taken a tougher stance toward Russia recently \u2014 including new sanctions last week on some entities for election meddling and cyberattacks \u2014 the president has declined to forcefully join London in denouncing Moscow for the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury, England, this month. They remain critically ill.\nTrump told reporters that he had offered his well wishes on Putin\u2019s new six-year term during a conversation that covered a range of topics, including arms control and the security situations in Syria and North Korea. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters that Skripal\u2019s case was not discussed. Information on Syria and North Korea was also provided to the president in writing before the call, officials said.\n\u201cWe\u2019ll probably be meeting in the not-too-distant future,\u201d Trump said of Putin, though Sanders emphasized that nothing is planned.\nIn this file photo taken on Friday, July 7, 2017, President Trump meets with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G-20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany. (Evan Vucci/AP)\n[Trump congratulates Putin on reelection, discusses \u2018arms race\u2019]\nThe White House press office declined to comment on the briefing materials given to Trump. Two people familiar with the notecards acknowledged that they included instructions not to congratulate Putin. But a senior White House official emphasized that national security adviser H.R. McMaster did not mention the issue during a telephone briefing with the president, who was in the White House residence ahead of and during his conversation with Putin.\nIt was not clear whether Trump read the notes, administration officials said. Trump, who initiated the call, opened it with the congratulations for Putin, one person familiar with the conversation said.\nThe president\u2019s tone drew a rebuke from Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, who wrote on Twitter: \u201cAn American president does not lead the Free World by congratulating dictators on winning sham elections. And by doing so with Vladimir Putin, President Trump insulted every Russian citizen who was denied the right to vote in a free and fair election.\u201d\nBut Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, appeared less concerned, noting that Trump has also offered congratulations to other leaders of more totalitarian states. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t read much into it,\u201d Corker said.\nPutin\u2019s latest consolidation of power came in what foreign policy analysts said was a rigged election in which he got 76 percent of the vote against several minor candidates. Some world leaders have hesitated to congratulate Putin, since his reelection occurred in an environment of state control of much of the news media and with his most prominent opponent barred from the ballot.\nAhead of Tuesday\u2019s phone call, national security aides provided Trump with several handwritten notecards filled with talking points to guide his conversation, as is customary for calls with foreign leaders, according to the officials with knowledge of the call, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.\nThe notecards are similar to the one Trump was photographed clutching during a White House meeting last month with students and parents after the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., officials said.\n[The Fix: This photo of Trump\u2019s notes captures his empathy deficit better than anything]\nTrump\u2019s failure to raise Moscow\u2019s alleged poisoning of the former spy in Britain risked angering officials in London, who are trying to rally Britain\u2019s closest allies to condemn the attack. Russia has denied involvement in the March 4 poisoning, but the attack has badly damaged British-Russian relations, and British Prime Minister Theresa May last week announced the expulsion of 23 Russian diplomats in retaliation.\nPutin has denied that Russia had any role and called the claim \u201cnonsense.\u201d\nAsked about McCain\u2019s criticism, Sanders noted that the leaders of France and Germany also called Putin this week, and she pointed to former president Barack Obama, who congratulated Putin on an election win in 2012.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been very clear in the actions that we\u2019ve taken that we\u2019re going to be tough on Russia, particularly when it comes to areas that we feel where they\u2019ve stepped out of place,\u201d Sanders said. \u201cWe\u2019ve placed tough sanctions on Russia and a number of other things where we have shown exactly what our position is.\u201d\nShe emphasized, however, that Trump is determined to establish a working relationship with Putin to tackle global challenges, including confronting North Korea\u2019s nuclear weapons program.\nAsked whether the Trump administration believes that Russia conducted a \u201cfree and fair\u201d election, Sanders said the administration is focused on U.S. elections.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t get to dictate how other countries operate,\u201d she said. \u201cWhat we do know is that Putin has been elected in their country, and that\u2019s not something that we can dictate to them how they operate.\u201d\nSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) distanced himself Tuesday from Trump\u2019s congratulatory remarks.\n\u201cThe president can call whomever he chooses,\u201d McConnell said at his weekly news conference. \u201cWhen I look at a Russian election, what I see is a lack of credibility in tallying the results. I\u2019m always reminded of the election they used to have in almost every communist country where whoever the dictator was at the moment always got a huge percentage of the vote.\u201d\nTrump has largely refrained from criticizing Putin amid special counsel Robert S. Mueller III\u2019s investigation of the 2016 election meddling; in February, Mueller indicted 13 Russian nationals on conspiracy charges. The president\u2019s tone has at times been at odds with that of his administration, which has taken stronger actions to counter Russian aggression, including Trump\u2019s authorization of new sanctions against Russia and additional support for Ukrainian troops in their fight against Russian-backed forces.\n[Video: Trump discusses call with Putin]\n\u201cIt\u2019s blatantly obvious that he has just an inexplicable level of support for President Putin,\u201d said Julie Smith, a European security expert who served as deputy national security adviser for Vice President Joe Biden. \u201cYou keep thinking it will change as he sees his own administration take action \u2014 that this never-ending well of support for Putin will somehow subside. It\u2019s disheartening at a time when our transatlantic partners really need a boost. Europe is looking to us for leadership on Russia in particular, and they\u2019re not getting it.\u201d\nThomas Wright, director of the Center on the United States and Europe at the Brookings Institution, said Trump\u2019s actions were \u201ca sign he wants a pro-Russia foreign policy,\u201d which conflicts with the harder line from his administration.\n\u201cEveryone is trying to figure out what does this mean,\u201d Wright said. \u201cRussia hawks say, \u2018Pay attention to us, but not to the president or to the tweets.\u2019 But the reality is, his reaction is policy. The fact that there hasn\u2019t been a stronger sanctions response to the poisoning so far is policy.\u201d\nTrump\u2019s applause of Putin\u2019s victory was in line with other congratulatory calls he has made, including to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for winning a much-disputed referendum that increased his already autocratic powers, and to China\u2019s President Xi Jinping for his \u201cextraordinary elevation\u201d after Xi last month engineered the Communist Party\u2019s elimination of presidential term limits.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s great. Maybe we\u2019ll have to give that a shot someday,\u201d Trump said in a closed-door speech to Republican donors at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida several weeks ago, a recording of which was obtained by CNN.\nKaren DeYoung, John Hudson and Jenna Johnson in Washington, and Anton Troianovski in Moscow, contributed to this report.",

        "title": "Trump challenges traditional GOP antipathy to Russia \u2014 and Rand Paul is an ally - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Trump challenges traditional GOP antipathy to Russia \u2014 and Rand Paul is an ally\nSen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), left, speaks with Konstantin Kosachev, the chairman of the Russian Federation Council Committee on International Affairs, in Moscow on Aug. 6, 2018. Paul said he invited Russian lawmakers to visit the United States to help foster inter-parliamentary contacts. (Pavel Golovkin/AP)\nA secretive summit, an open invitation to visit the United States and now a letter hand-delivered by a sympathetic senator \u2014 as President Trump makes increasingly un\u00ador\u00adtho\u00addox overtures to Russian President Vladi\u00admir Putin, the GOP is facing a politically existential choice: cross the president and his allies, or accept that the party is warming to the Kremlin.\nTrump has challenged traditional Republican antipathy toward Russia since taking office, even as his administration steps up sanctions against Moscow for various aggressive activities \u2014 most recently Wednesday\u2019s announcement that the administration would increase punitive measures over the recent Russian nerve agent attack on a former Russian agent now living in Britain.\nBut while the president\u2019s outreach to Putin has elicited a rebuke from many of the GOP\u2019s fiercest national security hawks, it has also earned the tacit support of some Republicans, who in recent weeks have sidestepped party leaders to make their own diplomatic overtures to Moscow, as well as wide swaths of the Republican electorate, which polling has shown is starting to embrace Trump\u2019s line on Russia.\nThe question is which faction of the GOP will prevail: those like Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who advocate a clenched-fist approach toward the Kremlin, especially as the dispute over Russia\u2019s interference in the 2016 election intensifies, or those endorsing Trump\u2019s efforts to establish more friendly relations, despite the warnings of the national security community.\nA visit to Moscow this week by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) marked the sharpest endorsement yet of Trump\u2019s polarizing policy toward Russia. Paul punctuated his first day in the country by extending a surprise invitation to members of the Russian legislature to visit the United States in an attempt to establish a dialogue between the parliaments of both countries.\nPaul is not the first lawmaker to go to Moscow in recent weeks: Last month, an eight-member Republican delegation visited. Members met with high-ranking lawmakers and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. But congressional leaders were quick to quash the idea that they are interested in hosting an exchange with Russian counterparts.\n\u201cNeither Congress nor the leader have invited any delegation from Russia to the Capitol,\u201d said Don Stewart, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), adding: \u201cSenator Paul is the only one that I know who is discussing it.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s not something we\u2019ve discussed,\u201d said Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.).\nLast month, Ryan and McConnell also said that Putin would not be welcome at the Capitol if he accepted Trump\u2019s invitation to visit Washington.\nPaul, a dogged noninterventionist, is known as something of a lone wolf on foreign policy. More recently, he has assumed the role of a one-man army fighting the many Republicans and Democrats who criticized Trump on Russia, particularly after the president\u2019s summit with Putin in Helsinki, in which Trump appeared to take the Russian leader\u2019s denials of election interference above the conclusions of the U.S. intelligence community.\nOn Wednesday, Paul said he delivered a letter to the Kremlin on behalf of Trump, calling it correspondence that \u201cemphasized the importance of further engagement in various areas including countering terrorism, enhancing legislative dialogue and resuming cultural exchanges.\u201d\nDeputy White House press secretary Hogan Gidley argued that the White House had merely provided Paul with a letter of introduction at his request, including in it the \u201ctopics of interest that Senator Paul wanted to discuss with President Putin\u201d \u2014 a meeting that did not occur.\nBut while Paul\u2019s moves might lack a ready audience in Washington, some Republican voters in Kentucky applaud the effort.\n\u201cHe wants to build off where Trump left off. I\u2019m all for it. I think it\u2019s long overdue,\u201d said David Badgett, 44, a real estate broker. \u201cWhat would be bad if we got along with Russians?\u201d\n\u201cAny kind of diplomacy is good,\u201d said Billy Williams, 34, a self-employed building contractor \u2014 who noted that he was dating a Russian woman. To him, Trump\u2019s outreach to Putin \u201cdoesn\u2019t seem weak; it seems diplomatic.\u201d\nA recent Gallup poll found that 40 percent of Republicans think Russia is either an ally or friendly toward the United States \u2014 nearly double the number of Republicans who thought so four years ago.\nSeveral congressional experts pointed out that foreign policy only rarely ranks as a top issue for most U.S. voters, and few came into the present political moment with well-formed views on Russia \u2014 giving Trump plenty of latitude to sway public opinion.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a topic that most Americans have been thinking a great deal about, and that\u2019s what gives him such influence in this area,\u201d Jack Pitney, a professor of political science at Claremont McKenna College, said of Trump. \u201cFor a certain number of Republican voters, Republicanism consists of whatever Trump stands for. So if Trump is more for Russia, they are too.\u201d\nThat view was on striking display at Trump\u2019s rally in Ohio this week, which some supporters attended wearing shirts that read: \u201cI\u2019d rather be a Russian than a Democrat.\u201d\nEven if GOP lawmakers don\u2019t agree with such sentiments, they are not immune to that level of tribalism in a Republican base \u201cthat is in lockstep with Trump,\u201d American Enterprise Institute congressional expert Norm Ornstein argued.\n\u201cTo go against him, other than in a tweet here or there, risks being attacked by or shunned by them,\u201d Ornstein continued. \u201cWhen some of those who are clearly uneasy about [Trump\u2019s Russia policies] do speak up, it\u2019s in more muted tones. And often, they don\u2019t.\u201d\nOnly McCain \u2014 who has been in Arizona since December receiving treatment for a serious form of brain cancer \u2014 has refused to pull punches when tangling with Trump over Russia, Ornstein argued. He pointed out that even those who have fiercely advocated stepping up sanctions, such as Republican Sens. Marco Rubio (Fla.), Bob Corker (Tenn.) and Lindsey O. Graham (S.C.), have occasionally \u201csoft-pedaled\u201d their message so as not to anger Trump \u2014 whose condemnations of Russian aggression have been murky at best.\nWith little time on the calendar before the midterm elections, it is increasingly unlikely that lawmakers will do anything to push back against the president\u2019s diplomatic efforts \u2014 or take any legislative steps to force a harder line against the Kremlin. GOP leaders have all but tabled efforts to swiftly pass new sanctions against Russia, opting first to hold hearings, and over the past few weeks, all Republican lawmakers but one \u2014 Corker \u2014 voted against devoting new funds to election security efforts.\n\u201cEven for the senators who object to what the president is doing on Russia and continue to see Russia as a threat .\u2009.\u2009. the degree to which they feel limited in what they can do to push back is a big part of the dynamic that\u2019s at play,\u201d said Molly Reynolds, a congressional expert at the Brookings Institution. And with elections looming, Trump\u2019s sway over the GOP electorate could make the price of crossing the president even higher.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a classic case of opinion leadership. The president is out there making a case about Russia, and typical Republicans are following,\u201d she said.\nJim Higdon in Louisville contributed to this report.",

        "raw_content": "Donald Trump inheriting 'weak' Army, military too small to win major wars, report says\nChief Master Sgt. Brent Crozier, left, a boom operator on an Oklahoma Air National Guard KC-135 Stratotanker, refuels an F-16 jet during a training exercise over the Gulf of Mexico. The KC-135 refueling jets, critical to long-range missions, are more ... more >\nBy Rowan Scarborough - The Washington Times - Sunday, November 27, 2016\nThe Washington think tank that helped forge the defense views of President-elect Donald Trump says in a report that the armed forces are too small to win major wars.\nThe Heritage Foundation\u2019s \u201c2017 Index U.S. Military Strength\u201d gives the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps a collective grade of \u201cmarginal\u201d for total power compared with a top score of \u201cvery strong.\u201d It stamps its lowest grade individually on the Army, which it judges \u201cweak.\u201d\n\u201cAt present, the U.S. military is two-thirds the size it needs to be and, of that two-thirds, only one-third is at acceptable levels of readiness,\u201d said Heritage\u2019s Dakota Wood, a former Marine Corps war planner who edited the index.\nHeritage has become one of the most influential think tanks as Mr. Trump forms his views on what kind of military he wants as commander in chief. The conservative think tank provided its studies to the Trump campaign and placed some of its analysts on the defense transition team.\nThe career businessman\u2019s major speech on national security in Philadelphia on Sept. 7 relied heavily on Heritage\u2019s military assessments.\nMr. Trump has vowed to increase defense spending to replenish the overall force structure and its 1.28 million active-duty troops. A first order of business is to jettison 2011 budget caps that hold defense spending, plus recurring war costs, at $602 billion for fiscal 2017.\n\u201cAs soon as I take office, I will ask Congress to fully eliminate the defense sequester and will submit a new budget to rebuild our military,\u201d Mr. Trump said Sept. 7. \u201cThis will increase certainty in the defense community as to funding and will allow military leaders to plan for our future defense needs.\u201d\nIn particular, he has talked about the Navy. The Heritage index notes that the fleet has fallen to 274 ships, short of the Navy\u2019s 308 goal. It is making do with 10 aircraft carriers \u2014 one short \u2014 as it awaits the launch of the costly USS Gerald R. Ford. Mr. Trump has pledged to sail a 350-ship Navy.\nMr. Trump says his defense secretary will find some savings inside the Pentagon budget by eliminating vacant jobs.\nThe military has been fighting large-scale conflicts simultaneously in Afghanistan and Iraq for more than a decade. Today, it has committed nearly 10,000 troops in Afghanistan and more than 4,000 in Iraq and Syria to fight Islamic extremists.\nThe Heritage index judges the military by asking if it is ready to confront and defeat two major adversaries \u2014 say, China and Iran \u2014 at about the same time. The George W. Bush administration sized the military to fight two major regional contingencies nearly simultaneously and prevail.\nThe Obama administration tweaked that goal: It decreed in 2014 that the Pentagon must be capable of defeating a regional adversary in a large-scale conflict while imposing unacceptable costs on a second aggressor in a different theater.\nSaid Mr. Wood: \u201cThe combined effects of reduced spending, worsened by the Budget Control Act of 2011, and sustained high levels of operational employed have resulted in a U.S. military that is too small for the tasks it is being assigned, rapidly aging due to program delays and cancellations needed to replace equipment that is being worn out, and far less ready for combat operations.\u201d\nThe Heritage report says the military is only marginally able to conduct two major regional contingencies. The Army has simply shrunk too much.\nIts active \u201cend strength\u201d has fallen from 566,000 soldiers to a planned 450,000. At the same time, the Army has whittled away at its basic fighting unit: the 4,500-soldier Brigade Combat Team. There once were 45; there are now 31. Mr. Trump pledged to increase the Army\u2019s active strength to 540,000 soldiers.\nOf those 31 teams, only 13 are at peak combat readiness, with nine of them involved in ongoing operations \u2014 leaving just three ready-to-go units if another war breaks out, Heritage says.\nShrunken Navy, Air Force\nThe Navy is far short of the number of ships it needs to handle two major wars. The fleet is at 274 ships, compared with a stated Navy goal of 308. But Heritage estimates it needs 346 submarines and surface ships to fully carry out its missions.\n\u201cWithout significant funding increases in procuring more vessels across ship types each year, it appears unlikely that the Navy will reach its own capacity goals for the foreseeable future,\u201d the index says.\nWith the retirement of all Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates, there is a 36-vessel shortfall in small surface combatant ships as the newer Littoral Combat Ship comes on line.\nHeritage says the Navy needs 13 carriers and 13 air wings to fight two major wars. It now has 10 of each.\nThe report quotes alarming statistics issued by Rep. J. Randy Forbes, Virginia Republican and chairman of the House Armed Services subcommittee on sea power.\nMr. Forbes, who is in the mix for Navy secretary, said the Navy is chronically unable to fulfill the requests from regional commanders for naval firepower. The Navy can meet only 56 percent of requests for carriers and 39 percent for cruisers and destroyers.\nThe demand for wars in Iraq/Syria and Afghanistan, as well as a Pacific presence, is keeping carriers at sea longer than the normal six-month deployment, adding to wear and tear on hardware and sailors.\nThe Air Force fleet \u201cis now the oldest and smallest in its history, and as the demand for air power continues to increase, the problem of capacity limiting capability will continue to grow,\u201d Heritage says.\nTo meet spending caps under the 2011 budget act, the Air Force today flies 39 active-duty fighter squadrons, of which just 26 are fully combat ready. As a historic comparison, the Air force manned 70 active fighters squadrons in 1991 when Desert Storm kicked off.\nHeritage says the Air Force, which is flying continuous missions over Iraq and Syria to surveil and target Islamic State militants, needs 1,200 fighters for two wars. It now has 1,159, not counting 144 jets dedicated to testing weapons and pilot training. Mr. Trump endorsed the 1,200-plane inventory.\nSome former pilots have dubbed their service the \u201cgeriatric Air Force.\u201d The average age of its air-superiority F-15C is 32 years. The workhorse F-16 Falcon average age is a quarter-century. The KC-135 refueling jets, critical to long-range missions, are more than 54 years old.\n\u2018Ill-suited to the changing threat\u2019\nMarine Corps readiness woes have received coverage in the conservative press. Fox News reported that the Corps has been forced to cannibalize junked aircraft to obtain parts for operational ones.\n\u201cOnly 43 percent of the Marine Corps total aircraft inventory is currently considered flyable,\u201d the Heritage index says.\nThe Corps\u2019 air force has condensed from 28 tactical squadrons at Desert Storm to 20 today, nearly a 50 percent loss. Operational requirements have remained about the same, meaning Marines are doing more with less.\nCorps fighter pilots continue to fly a fleet of 262 F-18 Hornets as the jets have exceeded their intended life cycle, while they await for delayed F-35B Lightning. The first squadron was activated a year ago.\nThe active force today is 184,000, down from 202,000 during the first Iraq war and 2,000 below the minimum number of Marines set by the commandant in 2010. Meanwhile, the vehicles that take them into battle are old.\n\u201cThe Corps\u2019 main combat vehicles all entered service in the 1970s and 1980s, and while service life extensions, upgrades, and new generations of designs have allowed the platforms to remain in service, these vehicles are quickly becoming ill-suited to the changing threat environment,\u201d Heritage says.\nSaid Mr. Trump: \u201cWe will build a Marine Corps based on 36 battalions, which the Heritage Foundation notes is the minimum needed to deal with major contingencies. We have 23 now.\u201d\nGen. Mark Milley, Army chief of staff, told Congress this year that if a major war broke out, his service would be hard-pressed to meet the scheduled deployments dictated in secret war planning.\n\u201cIf that were to happen, then I have great concerns in terms of readiness of our force, the Army forces to be able to deal with that in a timely manner,\u201d he said. \u201cI think the cost, both in terms of time, casualties and troops, and the ability to accomplish military objectives would be very significant.\u201d\nMichael O\u2019Hanlon, a military budget analyst at the Brookings Institution, said of the Trump arms plan: \u201cIf he does a 540,000 Army plus 12 to 15 ships a year and so forth, I think we will be OK budgetarily, and he can still claim a buildup, if not quite a Reaganesque one.\u201d\nPresident Reagan oversaw a $3 trillion expansion of the armed forces.",

        "raw_content": "Gingrich Releases Statement About Trump and Women\u2026 Promises It Will \u201cShock\u201d Many\nBillionaire businessman Donald Trump has taken a lot of fire from the media and Democrats about his relationships with women. Liberals claim that Trump is very unpopular with women and a horribly sexist individual, but he has naturally denied these claims.\nThe Washington Examiner reported that former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has stated that Trump is actually more pro-woman than Hillary Clinton.\nGingrich pointed to the fact that at the Clinton Foundation there is a pay discrepancy between male and female executives. Male executives make about 38 percent more than female executives, yet Clinton continues to prance around America and decry the fact that men make more than women in jobs.\nMaybe she should fix her own organization first and lead by example.\n\u201cDo you really want a president who pays men 38 percent more than women?\u201d Gingirch asked. \u201cAnd it turns out that\u2019s not Donald Trump. Donald Trump pays men (and) women executives very, very well, and he\u2019s given them a great deal of responsibility and a great deal of authority.\u201d\nTrump has often stressed how his company has been very fair to women. On the other hand, all Clinton has done is talk about promoting women\u2019s issues, but she doesn\u2019t even follow through on her own advice.\n\u201cSo ironically, it\u2019s going to turn out at a practical, functionally economic level that Trump is much more pro-woman than is Hillary Clinton,\u201d Gingrich stated. \u201cI think that will come as a real shock.\u201d\nGingrich stressed that if Trump could show American women the hypocrisy of Clinton, he could swing a large number of them to him, which could help him win the general election.\nClinton has already had a tough time in the Democratic primary earning the women vote, so we can only imagine the problems she will have in the general election.\nTrump is already polling neck-in-neck with Clinton in several key swing states, so all he needs is a little push to get him over the edge. This could be it.\nShare this on Facebook and Twitter and let us know what you think of Newt Gingrich\u2019s comments.\nWhat do you think of his comments?

        "raw_content": "Providing Valuable Skills to the Next Generation of Farmers\nDesigning a Curriculum for Vocational Training in Horticulture, at the Vocational Training Center in Nguekhohk, Senegal\nPosted on March 20, 2018 by F2F Volunteer, Sean Mulla\nMarch 20, 2018 marks National Agriculture Day, a day to celebrate the abundance provided by American agriculture. Under the USAID-funded Farmer-to-Farmer program, U.S. citizens have generously volunteered their time and shared their agricultural expertise in development activities around the globe. Their experiences have helped farmers, extension agents, and university professors in developing countries fight hunger and poverty and provide valuable skills to the next generation of farmers. Today\u2019s blog gives a glimpse of the volunteer experience from the eyes of a first-time F2F volunteer.\nI arrived in Dakar on December 2, 8:00 AM. As soon as I stepped off the plane, I felt the \u201cvibe\u201d of Senegal \u2013 the warm breeze, the energy of the people around me, and I could hear a faint musical rhythm coming from the terminal. This was my first trip to the African continent, and I was truly excited to be in a new place, surrounded by people talking a different language, living a different culture. I was prepared to see life through a new lens.\nThe first person I met was Mr. Youssouph San\u00e9, a member of Winrock\u2019s staff who would drive me around for the next 2 \u00bd weeks. After brief introductions, he took me to the Ambre D\u2019h\u00f4te for my first night in Dakar. He set me up with a cell phone and told me who to call if I needed help, and loaned me 10,000 African francs because it was Sunday and the money changers were closed. Then he left me until 9:00 AM the next morning. I was exhausted from my flight but was wide awake in a new place. No way I could sleep.\nAfter unpacking a few items, I walked out into the streets of Dakar. I just soaked it all in, the warm sun shone down on me as I walked for several blocks to the shore while the city carried on around me; traffic weaving through roundabouts, people walking everywhere, horse carts, motor scooters, colorful buses crammed full with people, shops and restaurants, tents and walled courtyards, the colors, and styles of the garments, the art studios, and the architecture, and the entryways into the courtyards\u2026.It was a beautiful tapestry of life, one I had never seen before, and it set the tone for the rest of my time in Senegal.\nThe next day, Mr. San\u00e9 picked me up and drove me to the Winrock Offices. There, I met Ndeye Mama Toure, the Winrock Program Director in Senegal, and my translator, Mamadou Diouf. They briefed me on the socio-economic realities of Senegal, why the program was created, and the details of my assignment. The Farmer to Farmer program in Senegal is designed to help alleviate some of the food insecurity in rural areas, as well as to provide a career path for young people interested in agriculture. As it is, Senegal has lots of available land and water, and a climate that is perfect for growing vegetables. However, many farmers do not have formal education or training in agriculture, and they do not have much capital to invest in infrastructure and supplies.\nFrom the briefing, I learned that the Senegalese government recognizes that successful small-scale farms can be a bridge to food security, good nutrition, and a secure foundation on which to build communities. By supporting programs that educate farmers on new methods and innovations, the Senegal government is building local community frameworks that promotes economic development.\nMy assignment was to assist in the development of a vocational horticultural curriculum for the Vocational Training Center of Nguekhokh (CFP Nguekhokh), so students and farmers can successfully engage in vegetable production, with an emphasis on food security, innovation, and organic methods of production. CFP Nguekhokh is located in the Theis Region about a one-hour drive south of Dakar near the coast. The eco-zone is characterized as a sub-Saharan environment with sandy soils, a dry season and a rainy season. My assignment started at the beginning of the dry season, early December.\nAfter my briefing, Mr. San\u00e9, Mr. Diouf, and myself drove about an hour down the coast to the town of Somone, where we checked into hotel Africa6, a small hotel with a lot of character and friendly staff situated right on the beach next to the ocean. Every day for the rest of the assignment, I enjoyed my breakfast watching the ocean waves roll in and out a few meters from my table. These accommodations were the perfect space to experience Senegal and work on my assignment.\nBecause I was given the assignment ahead of time, I had already started preparing a curriculum in advance, drawing from previously drafted course syllabus and teaching guides. I strived to put together a curriculum that scaled down the normal educational components of vocational horticulture program to 5 lessons that I thought were innovative and/or essential to success in vegetable farming in Senegal. However, after I met some farmers in Senegal, and talked with the teachers and headmaster at CFP Nguekhokh, I realized that I had to change my lesson plans. Most of the curriculum I had prepared before leaving the USA was completely irrelevant to the reality of small-scale farming in Senegal!\nI quickly realized that the curriculum had to focus on a homestead-size scale of production, and empower farmers with very limited resources. The participants of the class had various levels of experience in vegetable farming and education. So, the curriculum had to be presentable to a wide audience, and be applicable to the very real issue of food insecurity. This made my assignment more challenging, and as a result, I had to be more creative in the way I drafted a relevant curriculum. I had to be more innovative in the ways I presented lessons and engage participants. I was thankful that Winrock had included some extra days in the itinerary for prep-time. I was also very grateful for my interpreter, Mamadou Diouf. Because of his knowledge in agriculture and education, I was able to re-write my lesson plans so they were more applicable to the participants.\nI was very happy to find a wonderful teaching resource at the training center. They have at the school a rectangular walled-in garden area for teaching horticulture, I estimate it to be 1/2 hectare. Within the walled garden they have a small livestock shed, and various scrub trees in the corners and along the edges. Near the entrance, a small clump of taller scrub trees provides just enough dappled light for a seedling nursery. At the time, there were 100 or so containerized seedlings, and several containerized papaya plants. There was also a big compost pile \u2013 black gold! On one side of the garden, I saw cucumbers, lettuce, cabbage, beans, and carrots. On the other side, there were several beds of hibiscus seedlings, radish, and onions, some overshadowed by a canopy of papaya. At the time I was there, all the vegetable crops were in the seedling stage. In the center was a 2 X 2 meter concrete water pool about 50 cm deep, which was fed by water pumped out of a well near the entrance, and off to the side. Across the walkway from the well was a 5 ft. termite mound.\nThe horticultural training garden at CFP Nguekhokh\nPresentation of the curriculum:\nOn the first day, with the help of Mr. Diouf and Mr. San\u00e9, I started to present my curriculum. There were 15 participants. These were all the teachers and instructors at the training center. The first topic was \u201cRecord Keeping for Small Farms\u201d and objective of the lesson was for the students to be able to set up a basic record keeping system for historical reference, and future planning. Farm production records can help small scale farmers secure grants, or micro-loans, and they can be adapted for organic certification, or food safety. After a brief power point presentation and discussion, students were tasked with creating their own record keeping system, utilizing the gardens at the training center.\nStudents working on farm records to track use of inputs, harvests quantities, and expenses and revenue\nThe second day, I felt much more relaxed. The number of participants increased to 30. They included the original 15 staff from CFP Nguekhokh and 15 more from another training center 300km away. Mr. Diouf informed me they were a very diverse group (some of the participants were full-time farmers and not able speak French, so he would be translating it into Wolof). Day 2 focused on the benefits of incorporating organic matter into sandy soils to improve fertility. The learning objective was simple: Strongly emphasize the necessity to continue building up the organic matter in the soil. In Senegal\u2019s climate, soil\u2019s organic matter breaks down very quickly. Nutrient leaching, symptoms of too much nitrogen fertilizer, and signs of potassium deficiency were a few of the topics discussed. In the gardens that day, there were mutual demonstrations and discussions on how to use compost \u2013 how much to use, how deep it should be incorporated into the soil and its suitability for use as mulch.\nThe learning objective for the third day was a general overview of horticultural practices. It was a veritable smorgasbord of horticultural tips and advise on how to raise vegetable crops on a small scale. Topics included crop rotations (which they were already familiar with) scouting crops for insect and disease control, sanitation \u2013 such as cleaning off tools \u2013 to prevent spread of soil-borne pathogens, managing cutworms with plastic cup barriers, managing whiteflies and other soft-bodied insects with homemade soap-based sprays, trellising structures for vine-type crops, companion planting to attract pollinators, and the use of catch crops to draw insect pests away from the cash crops. The participants demonstrated the skills necessary to scout and record pest observations, and plant health. They installed cutworm barriers around seedlings in the garden and built pyramidal cucumber scaffolds.\nStudents scouting a crop for insects and disease\nFrom my 25 years of experience in agriculture, my observation is that farmers who innovate are the ones who prosper. Farmers must be creative in how they increase yields, with little-added expenses. So, the fourth learning objective of the curriculum was to teach participants that they can improve production methods through small-scale experiments and observations. As a competency-based approach to day four, participants were tasked with scouting the crops, as they did the day before, and note changes. But this time they there asked to observe whitefly populations among the beds of hibiscus in relation to neighboring crops. A lively discussion ensued among the participants as to the variation in whitefly population between a few of the beds. The crop\u2019s exposure to sun vs. shade and fertility management were discussed in relation to whitefly infestation. We then did a hands-on experiment in water holding capacity of soils, and the final activity of the day was to plant eggplant seeds into containers with potting soils that had been amended with different amounts of compost. The students were assigned the future task of recording observations about the growth of the plants in each media.\nA hands-on lesson to observe the water holding capacity of different types of soil/compost mixes.\nThroughout my career, I have practiced and promoted sustainable agriculture, and organic methods of farming. But, I\u2019m also pragmatic enough to know that people will feel compelled to use pesticides for many reasons, and pesticides are not going away. Mr. Diouf informed me that pesticides are used throughout Senegal with very little regulatory oversight. Therefore, I included, as a learning objective, some basic lessons on pesticide application. Topics included the use of personal protective clothing, gloves, and closed-toe foot-wear; the proper disposal of pesticide containers; proper time of spraying, and identification of the target pest and its life cycle. The competency-based task that the students were asked to perform was calibration of knap-sack sprayer when pesticide labels give quantity to be used over a given area (Ex: Liters/hectare). This exercise was well received, but I felt the mathematical components of calibrating the sprayer was not fully understood, and my presentation should have been clearer. However, the final lesson on how to make transplantable seed starting containers from newspaper and light-weight cardboard was very well received.\nIt seems the assignment ended quickly\u2026. too quickly. After the final lesson, all the participants gathered in a classroom, we had some refreshments together and said our good-byes. It felt as though my lessons got better each day as I became more comfortable with the methodology and working around the language barriers. I found that the most useful items I included in the curriculum were homemade \u201cDIY\u201d innovations and simple \u201cgarden hacks\u201d \u2013 things like home-made sticky traps for controlling and monitoring insect pests, and how to make biodegradable paper transplant pots.\nAll the participants in the class on the final day\nWe packed up and went back to Dakar for my last night in Senegal. Myself and another volunteer debriefed our assignments together over a very gracious lunch with Mama Ndeye Toure and her husband, followed by a driving tour of downtown Dakar.\nThis experience, working with Winrock International in Senegal has enriched my life and I feel it has empowered my career. It was a very positive experience for me. More importantly, Mr. Diouf translated the participants\u2019 comments and related that they enjoyed it as well and the curriculum was well received. So, I feel I accomplished what I set out to do. If given the chance to go back and build upon my previous assignment, I would not hesitate.\nIn closing, I would like to extend a very warm thank you to the host, CFP Nguekhokh, Headmaster Mr. Mbagnick Kama and director of the horticultural program Mr. Waly Star for giving me the opportunity to present a curriculum that, I hope, will be the basis for future course development. I would also like to thank the Winrock staff in Senegal \u2013 Ndeye Mama Toure, Mr. Mamadou Diouf, and Mr. Youssouph San\u00e9 who were all very professional, and a pleasure to work with. Without them, I would not have been able to complete the assignment.\nPosted in AET, Africa, Senegal, Volunteer Feedback | Tagged Curriculum Development, Farmer-to-Farmer, horticulture, National Ag Day\nRippling Outward\nThe Transfer of Knowledge Helping to Empower Women and Feed Families\nPosted on March 7, 2018 by Michael Bassey, F2F Nigeria Country Director\nIn the summer of 2017, Awakening Nigeria for Agricultural and Agro-Allied International (ANAAI) participated in training held by Winrock volunteer Anna Snider, working with Farmer to Farmer\u2019s Agricultural Education and Training Program (AET). The training focused on homestead vegetable gardening using sacks and containers to help farmers, and others currently not engaged in farming, to embrace vegetable farming.\nVolunteer Anna Snider with Members of ANAAI\nANAAI works with mostly female farmers in the Kaduna State of Nigeria and is dedicated to helping rural and urban poor boost their agricultural strengths which in turn enables them to better feed their families. In most parts of the state, lack of available land and socio-religious beliefs, some women aren\u2019t allowed to come out in public thereby depriving such women of the opportunity to participate in food production, to receive useful and current information, and educational opportunities and technological innovations that could be of help to them and their families. This lack of opportunity put many mothers and children at risk of malnutrition.\nSack gardening allows for space maximization, water conservation, and ease of practice while keeping financial requirements low, and improving nutrition, food security, and income. Many of the at-risk women have enough space within their fenced premises to grow food to support their families as well as earn some income by sacks/container farming. This helps empower women to take an active role in feeding their family while also interrupting the cycle of malnutrition, which especially hurts children and women who are pregnant.\nANAAI took to sack gardens with great enthusiasm, establishing their own and spreading what they had learned:\n\u201cThis training has opened up our mind, now some of our women who don\u2019t have land to farm can grow their own vegetables; above all we now know the importance of eating right and eating vegetables. We shall give this training to other women. We are glad we had this training.\u201d Yahaya Hamman, farmer.\nFast forward to January 2018, when Nigeria based Winrock International staff visited Kaduna on a routine impact survey. During the survey process, ANAAI informs the program staff that one of their member organizations, Thinkers Children Foundation (TCF), who had participated in the training on vegetable sack gardening went on to introduce and train school students and their families.\nThinkers Children Foundation (TCF) was founded in 2015, with a vision to give free primary education to children from internally displaced families, orphans, and the underprivileged. As part of TCF\u2019s corporate contribution to national growth and development, it educates children and spreads awareness on the dangers of illiteracy. From 3 pupils in 2015, TCF has expanded to 80 pupils actively attending classes.\nTCF students on the floor of their school\nOn that chilly morning in January, F2F staff arrived at TCF, where nearly 80 pupils were present, seated on the cold concrete floor in their makeshift school. They greeted the visitors with smiles and a chorus of \u2018good morning\u2019s. Inspired by the pupils and their enthusiasm, F2F staff pulled together their personal resources and donated 25 school desks to the foundation, complemented by 12 dozen notebooks.\nDesk Delivery!\nThe F2F team was told that many of the pupils were practicing sack gardening at home.\nTCF pupils hold up the victory sign and show off their container gardens\nOf the many pupils practicing sack gardening at home, one such practitioner was 8-year old Abdulhakim and his 5 years old sibling (Abubakar), who took the message home and taught their mother. In an interview with F2F staff, Abdulhakim\u2019s mother told the team that she is not only practicing sack culture but that she has trained three other women who are also actively practicing sack culture. She noted that adopting the sack and container culture has resulted in improved nutrition and savings in the cost of food for her and her family. She also reported that more and more women are making inquiries about how they too can grow vegetables in sacks and containers.\n\u201cI used to think that it is only when you are in the village and have land that you can farm. Sack farming is so easy to practice, requires minimal space and water, does not require rainfall; the benefits are just unthinkable. I no longer buy vegetables for my family and as a matter of fact, I give some of our daily harvest to our neighbors and will begin selling soon. This is exciting and pleases my husband so much.\u2019 Maimuna Ibrahim, mother to Abdulhakim and Abubakar Ibrahim.\nTo see a video on how to make a sack garden, check out the Winrock Volunteer\u2019s Facebook Page!\nPosted in AET, Africa, Nigeria | Tagged AET, agriculture education & training, Farmer-to-Farmer, international women's day, Nigeria, people-to-people exchange, Winrock Volunteers, women",

        "raw_content": "What is Neurofibromatosis?\nPatients with NF1 may also have scoliosis or other bone deformities as children.\nParents of children with neurofibromatosis should immediately contact their pediatrician if a tumor shows noticable growth.\nWhen people were talking about the Elephant Man, Joseph Merrick, in the early 1980s, the general consensus was that he had neurofibromatosis. Later examinations of his case and even his skeleton have led experts to determine he probably had a mysterious disease called Proteus Syndrome. However, neurofibromatosis is also a real disease that causes tumors to grow on nerves, as well as other abnormalities.\nThere are two types of neurofibromatosis. NF1 is the less serious version of the disease and occurs in one out of every 4,000 or so births. It is often diagnosed early due to the presence of \u201ccaf\u00e9 au lait\u201d spots on the skin. The neurofibromas are generally small and can be removed if they are causing cosmetic disfigurement or are pressing on vital organs.\nNF1 patients sometimes may also have scoliosis as children or other bone deformities. However, most people with neurofibromatosis type I will live normal lives, and many will have few, if any problems, relating to the disorder. Some children will have seizures when they are young, or perhaps speech impairment, but medication and speech therapy have proven very effective in helping these children live normally.\nNeurofibromatosis type 2 is a different story. NF 2 affects about one in every 50,000 births and is more severe on every level. With NF2, patients may develop tumors on the nerves in their ears, eventually causing deafness. Tumors may also appear on the spinal cord or brain. Fortunately, only about 3 to 5 percent of neurofibromas ever become cancerous. However, parents need to keep a check on their child\u2019s tumors, and if one shows noticeable growth, the parents should call their pediatrician immediately.\nChildren who have NF1 and stay healthy into adulthood have a good chance of remaining healthy and living a normal lifespan. Support groups are available, both for those who have neurofibromatosis, and those who have children with the disease.\nWhat are the Different Neurofibromatosis Symptoms?\nWhat is Thoracoplasty?\nWhat is Proteus Syndrome?\nWho is the Elephant Man?\nWhat is Pleomorphism?",

        "title": "Dr. Tom Prichard Says WWE Is Wasting Talent, Reveals Which Former Star He Thought Would Break Out - Wrestling Inc.",
        "raw_content": "Former WWE Tag Team Champion Tom Prichard recently spoke with Wrestling Inc. Managing Editor Nick Hausman on the WINCLY podcast. Among many other things, Prichard talked about WWE stockpiling talent, what he looks for in a professional wrestler, which WWE Superstar he thought was going to be a bigger deal in the genre than he was, and common advice he gives to aspiring professional wrestlers.\nAccording to Prichard, that WWE has a lot of great talent, like Ricochet, colloquially in the tent pissing out rather than out of the tent and pissing in it.\n\"As soon as somebody gets hot, the WWE is smart enough to say, 'here's twice as much as you're making there. We're going to steal you and bring you over here.' Look what happened to Ricochet. Look at what happened to a lot of talented guys. They've got them, for lack of a better description, pissing in the tent instead of pissing out. Do you know what I mean? So I understand that there is a level of success these guys are already found, Cody [Rhodes] and The Young [Bucks], man, they have earned so much respect and I admire these guys. I'm so proud of what they did, but I think that it takes talent to make a company.\" Prichard added, \"and you have to have loyal talent, and I'm sure they do, don't get me wrong, but it remains to be seen.\"\nDuring the conversation, Prichard revealed that the first thing he looks for in a pro wrestler is what makes him stand out. Prichard went on to give the example of former WWE Champion Dean Ambrose and his mysterious mystique.\n\"When I see somebody, do they stand out to me? Is there something about their personality? Is there something about their aura? Is there something about the way they walk through that door? Is there mystery to them?\" Prichard continued, \"the perfect example for me was Dean Ambrose. The first time I saw Dean Ambrose come through the door in Tampa [Florida]. He was not the biggest guy in the world. He wasn't a spectacular looking guy by any stretch of the imagination, but on the other side of that coin, he was everything that screamed sports entertainer/professional wrestler. There was mystery to him. He didn't let everybody know what was going on. He didn't let everybody know where he came from. He didn't let everybody know his secrets. He kind of kept things close to his vest. But when he got in the ring, he had talent. He had feeling. He believed it and that's what I look for in a wrestler, do they believe who they are when they're walking in the door. Do I believe who they are when they walk to the ring? And I steal this quote all the time: if it looks good, you'll see it; if it's marketed right, you'll buy it; if it sounds good, you'll hear it; but if it's real, you will feel it. And that goes for the performer and anybody else that steps in the ring. But that's what I look for. Are you feeling it? Do you really feel it? Do you love this because it shows. It shows in every movement you do and that's what I look for when I see a performer or see a young person.\"\nAdditionally, Prichard indicated that he believed former WWE Superstar Mason Ryan could have been a lot bigger deal than he was in pro wrestling.\n\"Mason Ryan's a good example.\" Prichard explained, \"Mason Ryan's a great example of a guy who still has talent, he's still doing Cirque du Soleil right now, as a matter of fact. He was one of those guys who looked the part. He was the part. He is the part. For whatever reason, and only the powers that be know why he didn't go any farther than he did, but he was one of those guys I thought can't miss. Can't miss.\"\nSteve Austin And Tom Prichard Reveal Which Legends They Tried To Emulate Early In Their Careers\nPrichard who is opening the Jacobs-Prichard Wrestling Academy with pro wrestling legend Glenn 'Kane' Jacobs in Knoxville, Tennessee, shared that his most common advice to aspiring pro wrestlers is to have fun, but also remember that it is a business.\n\"I think the most common piece of advice is have fun and enjoy what you're doing when you go out there.\" Prichard said, \"but also, just remember that it's business. Keep the mystery about you and not just with the fans. I mean, don't tell everyone everything there is to know about you. Treat it like a business, but you have to have fun. You have to enjoy this. Without enjoying this, it's going to be complete drudgery and you can't relax.\"\nFor more information on the Jacobs-Prichard Wrestling Academy, click here.\nCheck out the WINCLY podcast in the audio player below which features more from Prichard, including him discussing training Vince McMahon to wrestle and why he doesn't think The Young Bucks' AEW promotion will succeed.

        "raw_content": "This Thought will discuss routes in the east end of the line.\nThe goals for this part of the line are:\n\u2013 to alleviate congestion on the Danforth by transferring passengers south\n\u2013 to provide a faster route downtown\n\u2013 to service high-density areas\nThe DRL Subway Line will cross the Don River as far north as Queen Street, or more likely go through the Athletes\u2019 Village area (West Don Lands) and cross at the old King Street bridge.\nEastern Avenue doesn\u2019t seem like a good candidate street for a subway. It could use a public transit line, but a low-density industrial street doesn\u2019t merit a subway line. Big box stores don\u2019t deserve a subway line. So running the line east on Eastern doesn\u2019t make much sense.\nIn fact, Queen is the only east-west avenue that would make sense, if any at all. None of the thoroughfares in Riverdale or Leslieville have much density, but Queen has its advantages. Three streetcar routes travel along Queen from Broadview to Kingston Road, and the 504 joins there to cross the river. It\u2019s a serious bottleneck, so any worthwhile subway line will make some impact alleviating this congestion.\nBut don\u2019t forget: the subway line might go along King! A King subway line would make obselete the 503 or 504, or both, and even using Wellington, one line could be eliminated. Even the Queen streetcars might need less service, if longer-distance travel can be handled by the subway line.\nSo a station at Queen and Broadview is not 100% necessary, but it seems likely, with few good reasons to put stations on Eastern.\nBefore we think about stations in that area, it\u2019s important to think about north-south configurations. The original plan for the line went up Pape Avenue. Pape is a good choice for a few reasons. The current plan for the Don Mills LRT has the line\u2019s terminus at Pape station. Pape has little density itself, but it passes through the middle of a string of apartments along Cosburn Avenue. Finally, there is a clear path toward the Thorncliffe Park area that would be quite a detour if the line were to follow Coxwell Avenue. Coxwell doesn\u2019t have much density either, so it\u2019s not great. Broadview is too far west. Although it has density, it doesn\u2019t service as large an area, and is already well-served by streetcars. Donlands is too close to Pape to be a better option.\nI think the only decent alternative to Pape is Greenwood. It has less density than Pape, but it does have a clear route to the large Thorncliffe Park area. It makes available the Greenwood subway yard, and possibly most importantly, it would better alleviate congestion on the Danforth line by taking passengers off at an earlier point. These two points make Greenwood at least a decent candidate. Remember, this is all hypothetical, and 25 years away at least, so it\u2019s possible by then that Greenwood would be a better choice.\nI\u2019m throwing my support behind Greenwood, but there is a potential snag: the Don River. Depending on environmental assessments and construction requirements, it may not be feasible to cross the river anywhere near there. If that were the case, Pape, if possible, would be the choice. It\u2019s also annoying that Greenwood station is actually a block east, at Linsmore Crescent, but that can be worked around.\nGreenwood! All right, but taking the line down Greenwood to Queen wouldn\u2019t be ideal. A diagonal direction would be best here, because you can take a quicker path to save time on the commute. Only a couple of stations would be needed, possibly Queen/Broadview, Dundas/Carlaw, and Gerrard/Jones.\nFinally, north of Danforth: only one station south of the river is needed, and it should be at Cosburn, because it\u2019s central in the area. Cross the river to Thorncliffe, and then curve north east to Don Mills Road, where the line will continue north, until at least Eglinton, if not Sheppard. Don Mills is an obvious choice. It\u2019s already slated for an LRT, but as long as I\u2019m dreaming, I may as well make it a subway. If the Don Mills LRT does get built, it would be silly to stretch the DRL to Greenwood, so Pape Station would be the terminus.\nStations in the east end, continuing from the west:\nCarlaw (at Dundas)\nCosburn (at Greenwood)\nOverlea (at Don Mills)\nThe 503 streetcar line could be eliminated, and a lot of East York apartments would have excellent transit service, and hopefully could choose transit over driving.\nIn the next chapter, I\u2019ll similarly analyze the west end of the line.\nFor this part of my DRL Thought, I\u2019m going to explain possible east-west alignments for the downtown section of the line.\nThe line was originally planned to use the rail corridor south of Front Street, so that it could be above ground in order to save money on construction (and maintenance?). The line would cross the Don River at or south of Eastern Avenue, and follow the GO/Via rail path to a connection at Union Station, and continue west from there.\nI don\u2019t think the system would do best to have the DRL run through Union Station, for several reasons:\nAs Yonge/Bloor shows us every day, single connection points can quickly become overloaded. TTC\u2019s Union Station, currently with the smallest platform in the subway system, would struggle to accommodate yet another connection, on top of its surface rail routes, and streetcar and bus lines. There are plans to build a second platform for Union, making one for each northbound direction, but there is already a lot being squeezed into one node.\nWhat about the rail corridor in general? There are plans to build a large development in the west Don lands (south of Eastern Ave and east of Parliament St), so a subway serving that area would improve the accessibility in that area. In fact, the development is going to be the Athletes\u2019 Village for the recently-awarded Pan-Am Games.\nOther high-density or high-importance spots near the rail corridor: the Skydome and ACC, the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, the CN Tower, and the St. Lawrence and CityPlace neighbourhoods.\nBut many of those things are already well-served by transit. Union itself is a short walk from all but one of those six locations. And since Union might not be the best choice for a connection node, we should consider other options.\nLook up Lower Queen station. There was a plan to build another east-west route across Queen Street. Downtown, Queen seems ideal for a subway line. There is a lot of high-density development and places of interest, and the Queen streetcar is known for being a nightmare. Two connections to the YUS line, at Yonge and University, mean there would be less pressure on one single station. However, outside the downtown area, Queen has an excellent shopping strip that is well-served by streetcar. Being able to see the stores you pass is an excellent reason to have a streetcar line. Older Torontonians have told me that parts of Yonge and Danforth suffered when shoppers were moved underground. Also, outside the downtown area, Queen has far less density than other east-west routes.\nWhich brings me to King Street. Downtown, King goes through the centre of the financial district, with the tallest office buildings. To me this means more commuters who could be served by subway. It also covers a greater scope of the Entertainment District. East of downtown, King is nearer to higher-density neighbourhoods, George Brown College, and even the west Don lands. West of downtown, King has a much higher density than Queen; the difference is notable just west of Spadina.\nI had also considered Wellington Street for a section of downtown (possibly King west of Spadina, down to Wellington, and then continue when Wellington becomes Front Street), but though this places the line closer to some extremely important downtown spots, it also may create problems when creating transfer points at King and St. Andrew stations, simply for distance reasons. I consider this option to be nearly equivalent to King, the deciding factors being connecting to the YUS line, and where skyscrapers prevent tunnels from being built.\nStations in the downtown area, west to east:\nSt. Andrew (possible 2nd entrance on Simcoe Street)\nJarvis (at King, 2nd entrance on George Street)\nParliament (at King)\nIn future parts, I\u2019ll talk about my thoughts of the east and west ends of the line.\nPosted in Ideas, Political, Toronto, TTC\nPreface: Keep in mind this is pretty much a pipe dream, and Transit City is probably far more important to the city right now.\nToronto has just been awarded the 2015 Pan-American Games. This is believed to be an incentive to improve the city\u2019s rapid transit network. Specifically, the much-discussed Downtown Relief Line is core to this plan. The West Donlands area would be redeveloped with new housing, and serve as the athletes\u2019 village during the games. But this area is currently severely underserved by public transit, and a new subway line may be just what is needed.\nThe Downtown Relief Line was proposed in part for the ability to alleviate transfers at Yonge-Bloor and St. George stations, and provide a faster route downtown for people travelling from the west or east ends of the Bloor-Danforth line. It would also alleviate serious overcrowding problems, which are only going to get worse if the Yonge line extends north of Finch.\nTaking the subway downtown (towards the 2 transfer points) in the morning gets extremely crowded, except from the Spadina line*. When I was going downtown from the west end, my subway car would be full by about Lansdowne or Dufferin, and people would often be left behind on the platform because they simply couldn\u2019t board the train. The situation is mirrored on the Yonge line and Danforth line. There need to be more options for commuters in the morning.\nThe Downtown Relief Line was originally proposed to go southbound from Pape station, and across Eastern Avenue / Front Street, with a transfer point at Union, and ending at Spadina. A potential westward extension would connect to Bloor at Dundas West, and a potential northward extension would go up from Pape to Eglinton (presumably at Don Mills).\nThat plan outlines a good general idea of what Toronto\u2019s DRL should do.",

        "title": "The Strange Places I've Called Home: Part 3, Knoxville - 80 Couches",
        "raw_content": "Check out my first two parts of my \u201cStrange Places I\u2019ve Called Home\u201d series: Milwaukee, and South Florida.\nAt first blush, Knoxville seems like an odd fit for a boy like me. It is conservative and religious, and I am neither of those things. If anything, that is an understatement; I am vehemently and vociferously liberal and atheist. Still, East Tennessee has a talent for worming its way into your heart, and while I was not born there, \u201cRocky Top\u201d will always be home, sweet home to me.\nThe first thing an outsider will notice about the region is its breath-taking beauty. The city and suburbs fill the valleys between the green, rolling foothills, and the Smoky Mountains stand tall against the backdrop, particularly on clear days. I hosted quite a few couchsurfers in Knoxville, and all of them said the same thing at the first sight of the mountains. \u201cOh, those?\u201d the average Knoxvillian might reply, \u201cYeah, they\u2019re beautiful.\u201d Perhaps it is human nature to begin to take such beauty for granted, and once those hills became the usual vista, I began to as well.\nA straight road, by East Tennessee standards.\nSometimes I found myself needing to snap out of my daily routine, just to look around and appreciate the beauty. And while it was difficult to fully appreciate the mountains then, it isn\u2019t now. My heart fills with pride and longing when I see the Appalachians, even from a picture half-way around the world. I\u2019ve traversed other great mountain chains around the world: the Himalayas, the Andes, and the Alps, but those Smokies are still the best in my book, simply because they are my mountains. Also, I can\u2019t help but feel a deep link to the history of life on this planet with the knowledge that the Smokies are older than any of those other mountain chains, and by a great deal. The land was deformed by the ancient collision with Africa and Europe, creating Pangaea around 300 million years ago. The Appalachians stood tall over the landscape before the dinosaurs ever roamed the Earth.\nThe rugged terrain has led to a spirit of independence and rebellion. What most outsiders might see as a dangerously curvy, narrow country road, the average East Tennessean sees as \u201ca road,\u201d and one to be driven as fast as possible. When Christine suggested I buy a bike to get around during my last extended stay at my mom\u2019s house, I had to explain to her that such an endeavor would certainly end in my own unfortunate demise. At best I would be run off the road, though the far more likely outcome would end with bits of me becoming a permanent fixture in the grill of a pickup truck, as they rounded a blind curve at 50-plus miles per hour. This ain\u2019t Denmark, baby, and we don\u2019t have Copenhagen lanes.\nConsidering speed limit signs as suggestions to be ignored (or more accurately, not to be considered at all) only scratches the surface of the rebellious nature of the region. They don\u2019t like anyone telling them what to do, including their own state. When the rest of Tennessee seceded from the Union, East Tennessee remained loyal to the North. Some might argue it was ideological, but after years in Knoxville, I\u2019m convinced it was just to be contrarian.\nIn the spirit of rebellious independence, comes a color so bold that it is almost never tried in the world of sports. Of course, I\u2019m talking about Tennessee Orange, the color of the University of Tennessee. Sure, other teams might wear orange, but not like the Vol Nation. For some teams, orange is a color that must only be used to enhance other colors, as if it were a mere condiment of colors. They combine it with black, blue, green, or even purple; it is used as a secondary color, or a primary color only to be able to sell more merchandise. For other teams, they dilute their orange, making it more of a brown, or a red. Only Tennesseans (and the Dutch) are brave enough to wear their color, bright and proud, without need of other, lesser colors.\nHmm, needs more orange.\nTennessee Orange is loud, abrasive, and doesn\u2019t care what you think. The Tennessee faithful have heard all the jokes about their beloved color, but at the end of the day, when they shout \u201cGo Big Orange!\u201d everyone knows exactly which orange they are talking about. Seeing Tennessee Orange on the backs of 100,000-plus fans on football game days is truly a sight to behold. Tennessee football, even in its current dark era, binds the Knoxville community like few other sports teams can manage. When Neyland Stadium is sold out, it holds over half the population of Knoxville.\nNatural beauty, rebellious spirit, and a great sports tradition are all things that I love about Knoxville. And generally, I love the polite, warmhearted, caring people as well. But I would be remiss if I didn\u2019t delve into the more perplexing religious and social attitudes of the region. I moved to Knoxville at a time when I first started questioning politics and religion, and while I may have come to my current leftist/atheist views on my own, East Tennessee went a long way in pushing me hastily in those directions.\nKnoxville is in Tennessee, and Tennessee is in the South. The South is a strange place in general, and I could write several posts on it alone. The strangest aspects come in two related paradoxes: politeness (i.e. \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d) vs violent crime, and religion vs. morality.\nThe South, and Tennessee in particular is know for its friendly and polite residents. I know this to be true. Manners are extremely important, and everyone is addressed as a long lost close friend. If you ask for directions, it is best to pull up a chair and take out a notepad, because you\u2019ll get the longest, most thorough directions you\u2019ve ever received. The best way to strike up a conversation with a local is by being within shouting radius of them. Privately, they may say they don\u2019t like outsiders, but in reality they are quite enthralled by a \u201cfunny\u201d accent.\nCuriously, these same polite people (OK, maybe not the exact same ones) commit murder, robbery, rape, assault, etc at an extraordinary rate, even for America. Tennessee might be an unusually polite and friendly state, but its also the most violent. In reading that we had gained the dubious distinction as the nation\u2019s most violent state, I was in a fair bit of shock, but the numbers do not lie.\nThere must be some sort of coping mechanism to deal with the excessive crime rate, because although I never felt unsafe in Knoxville, there were quite a few examples of horrible incidents happening in my general vicinity. Off the top of my head, I can think of several murders, and a couple of shootings. The murders involved several people connected with my former high school, but I was neither present to witness the tragedies nor connected in any way to the victims. The shootings, however, I witnessed first-hand. They happened in my apartment building near the University of Tennessee. The first one occurred on our floor, when a guy was thrown out of a party, came back with a gun and began firing indiscriminately into the crowded balcony from the parking lot below. I was on that balcony a mere fifteen minutes before the shooter returned, and I had a clear view of the shooter from across the street. Thankfully \u201conly\u201d two people were injured, neither fatally. The second happened in the apartment just below ours, which apparently involved a drug deal gone wrong. We heard the shots, and when we peaked out of our apartment, we saw a man brandishing a large pistol running down the stairs. As far as I know, no arrests were made in either case.\nThe pervasive violence would seem even more curious when paired with the overall religiosity of the region. Knoxville was where I first became critical of religion, in general, and religious hypocrisy in particular. And it was where I first realized the complete disconnect between religion and morality.\nI moved to Knoxville as a freshly bar mitzvahed Jewish \u201cman\u201d of 13. From my previous experiences, someone\u2019s religion wasn\u2019t that big of a deal. I made the mistake of letting my Jewish heritage become public record early. I remember it clearly, some girls invited me, the new kid, to sit with them during lunch. They then asked if I wanted to lead a pre-meal prayer. I thought this was weird, I couldn\u2019t recall praying for any meal my whole life, and certainly not over lukewarm pizza and tater tots. After a few uncomfortable moments, I reluctantly said, \u201cUm, well, the thing is I\u2019m Jewish.\u201d Gaping jaws and a flurry of questions followed, most of which I was completely unqualified to answer. By the end of the week, the whole school knew, and shortly thereafter the verbal and physical bullying began in earnest. The fact that I was also a smart ass, pre-pubescent Yankee with an inability to keep his mouth shut didn\u2019t help matters.\nI can already hear my religious friends standing to defend their faith, \u201cThose people are not true Christians,\u201d they might say, to which I would reply, \u201cThen what\u2019s the point?\u201d If you can call yourself a Christian, go to church regularly, believe in God, and still be a horrible person, then there absolutely no correlation between morality and religion. Sadly, many Christians in Knoxville proved Stephen Weinberg\u2019s quote correct, \u201cWith or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil \u2014 that takes religion.\u201d The worst example in recent memory was the tragic shooting of the Unitarian Univeralist Church in Knoxville. I guess the physical and verbal abuse because of religious differences wasn\u2019t so bad in retrospect.\nBullying and occasional shootings aside, the \u201cBible Belt\u201d is curiously known for its high rates of divorce, teen pregnancy, and obesity, all of which seems odd for allegedly pious, caring Christians. Many like to think that there\u2019s a correlation between Christianity and morality, and after seeing the way the this region stacks up to the rest of the country, there does seem to be a correlation, just not in the direction it is generally assumed.\nThis all doesn\u2019t necessarily make Knoxville strange, as this trend is fairly widespread throughout the South, if not the world. I probably would have come to these conclusions without the help of the locals, but these clearly visible extremes created a clear contrast in which to better formulate ideas on religion and morality. This is not intended to be a blanket statement on all religions or religious folks; I\u2019m thankful for the friendship of many good, honest Christians, many of whom I met in Knoxville. However, I can\u2019t overlook the hypocrites who paid lip-service to God, while also causing great misery for others.\nThis post might seem like I am being overly critical of Knoxville, but that is not my intention. Knoxville shaped who I am today, even if I was always a fish out of water there. The area, with religious and political philosophies so different to my own, forced me to view my own opinions with a critical eye. To live as a bright blue dot in a sea of red allowed me to refine my views, like a blade that was constantly being sharpened. Deep down, I liked having my ideas challenged. Far too often, liberals and conservatives alike get caught up in echo chambers, rarely allowing their ideas to be challenged or new arguments to be considered.\nHowever, I learned that this \u201cRed-Blue\u201d dichotomy that the media loves to play up is a false one. In the deepest of Red States, you\u2019ll find liberals fighting the good fight, and in Blue States, you\u2019ll find conservatives doing the same. Also, it\u2019s not nearly as important as we are led to believe. Regardless of political or religious affiliations, we have to live as neighbors, and the vast majority of times, these philosophical differences do not matter.\nMy love of Knoxville is a complicated love, as it should be. It was my home for longer than any other city, and I lived there through arguably the most important time of my life developmentally, so I know it more intimately than any other place I\u2019ve called home. It\u2019s the difference between loving your family as kids, and loving them as adults: when you\u2019re a child, you love your family without question, and as an adult, you love them despite (or even because of) their faults.\nWhen I return to Knoxville, I inevitably find that I\u2019ve changed much more than my home ever will. It is equal parts comforting and depressing. I miss it terribly when I\u2019m away, and I love being back. But when I find myself back in Knoxville, I\u2019m immediately itching for another escape. Still, despite being able to answer half-a-dozen different ways, when someone asks when I\u2019m from, I proudly tell them, \u201cKnoxville, Tennessee.\u201d\nThe \u201cStrange Places I\u2019ve Called Home\u201d series continues with my post on Nagasaki, Japan.\nTags: Couchsurfing Knoxville Orange Politics Religion Strange Places Tennessee traveling\n\u2190 The Strange Places I\u2019ve Called Home: Part 2, South Florida\nLessons from Nowhere: Oruro, Bolivia \u2192\n3 comments for \u201cThe Strange Places I\u2019ve Called Home: Part 3, Knoxville\u201d",

Earlier in July he said that Washington \u201cfully supports Mikheil Saakashvili and his team, and we will do everything so that they can succeed.\u201d\nUS authorities have recently been sending other instructors to train local forces in Ukraine. In April, paratroopers of the US 173rd Airborne Brigade, based in Vicenza, Italy, arrived in the western Ukrainian city of Lvov to provide training for Ukrainian government troops. Pyatt then posted on Twitter several pictures of the US paratroopers marching through the airport in the city.\nSaakashvili became governor of Odessa Region back in May. He was personally appointed by President Petro Poroshenko.\nHe was also given Ukrainian citizenship under Poroshenko's personal decree, published on his website, as the Ukrainian constitution says that only a citizen can become an official at governor level.\nSaakashvili left Georgia in autumn 2013, days before his presidential term expired. He has been living abroad ever since.\nIn spring 2014, Georgia's new ruling coalition accused Saakashvili of embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from the state budget. Georgia's prosecutors have started an investigation into the case. However, Saakashvili denies the charges against him, saying the funds went towards attracting foreign investors to the country.\nApart from embezzlement, Saakashvili has several other cases ongoing against him. He is accused of abuse of power during the crackdown on anti-government protests in the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, on November 7, 2007. He was also allegedly involved in the attack on the opposition TV station Imedi, which was seized by Georgian special forces on the same day, and the appropriation of the founder's assets.\nRussian/Ukrainian Trip To Find Out For Myself What Was Going On\nby Louis Beam\nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1l-4Bh979WdU2G4aQPo9Y4XeyxLTIuo1l2w zpoPW5XlY/pub\nThese are the young men senator John McCain and crazy warmongering generals like General Robert H. Scales1, a former United States Army major general, want American soldiers to help start sending home in body bags. Why? Because the lying senator from the state of Arizona said they had invaded the Ukraine. Is this true? Did Russians invade the Ukraine?\nI went on a thirty day fact finding tour to find out for myself. I wanted to know for myself if the call for American young men to kill once again and yet another war was justified or not.\nOnce, long ago in my youth, having believed the propaganda of the federal government and its spokesmen, I rushed off to Viet Nam as a volunteer to fight \"a war for freedom\" for the Vietnamese people. After two tours of heavy combat, which included the Tet offensive of 1968, I came home, having proudly served my country, only to watch on television a few years later as North Vietnamese tanks rolled into Saigon May 1, 1975. While these tanks rolled into Saigon the President of the United States, Gerald Ford, played golf with no concern for the 58,000 American soldiers who had died, the over 300,000 thousand more wounded, and the 2,338 POW/MIA missing in combat. These may sound like numbers to you, but to me they are the young men I fought with, and I see faces, families, hopes, dreams, blood, sweat and tearful screams when I read them.\nFrom that bloody moment on I knew forevermore that the American political system was absolutely corrupt and would never have my obedience and faith again. (To my readers in Europe and Russia: do not confuse the military-industrial-police state complex that has become the government of this country through violation of our constitution, with the freedom loving, generous, God-fearing, hard working, sometimes homeschooling, lovers of liberty who are the bedrock people of this country.) The corrupt, evil, war mongering, greedy monopoly capitalist, CIA led, Federal Reserve banking government of the United States does not represent the people of this country\u2014only themselves. We are not the same people. Do not make the mistake of thinking so. For we who are ruled here are not of a similar creed, faith and hope for the future of this country and the world as the corrupt, lying, stealing, low-life politicians who now run this country with near impunity for their crimes against its citizens and the people of other nations.\nThis essay will be about what I found out about the Russians and the Ukrainian people who are much the same in so many ways. It will not be written in one sitting, but rather as the words and thoughts come to me over time. So, if you should come back to this page over the next month (June 2015), you might gather more insight.\nArriving in Moscow May 1, 2015, I went first to the Kremlin and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, for it was my desire to view the heart of the \u201cevil empire\u201d so many American political leaders and their accomplices, spokespeople in the \u201cnews\u201d media, have accused of invading the Ukraine with no less than \u201c10,000 soldiers.\u201d If indeed that claim were true, it would be \u201cthe pot calling the kettle black,\u201d as the U.S. military is currently directly involved in at least three wars \u2013 in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia \u2013 in addition to Iraq and Afghanistan for a total of five countries in case you are not counting. I could name more but that is enough to prove the point.\nFrom the longtime American \u201cnews media\u201d descriptions of the Kremlin I had always thought it to be some dark, dirty, dungeon, where evil men plotted to take over the world. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is one of the most beautiful places one could view, and everybody from the tourists to guards are most friendly and welcoming. What a cultural shock that was. Try walking up to the walls of the American White House like I did the Kremlin and touching them! If you live long enough to reach the White House walls expect no less than five years imprisonment.\nAt the gates of the Kremlin:\nIt is quite true that when the theories of Karl Marx held sway over Russia, coupled with the bloody hands of Lenin, Trotsky, Felix Dzerzhinsky2, Stalin and Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, orders for mass murder and repression came from this place. However, this was not the Russian people giving the orders, but insanely mad, evil men who were repressing the Russian people, not representing them. Millions of Russians died at their hands and millions more were sent to gulags (concentration camps). One only need read The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to know the terrible tragedy the Russian people endured under the hands of such men and ideology. Since the early 1990\u2019s the Russian people have been liberating themselves from this evil that ruled over them so painfully. Little by little they are building a state where freedom is as real as it was in America in the 1950s.\nMany of the young people there whom I came to know want the same things American youth would like to have and experience, i.e., a better future for themselves, good jobs, sufficient wealth to live comfortably on, and a future without war\u2014 especially a future without war. For the Russians have suffered in the last seventy-five years like few other countries from the barbarity that is war. So, freedom of speech, religion and belief has come to Russia, and it has been welcomed joyously by the people.\nThere are wrinkles in this, that is true. Like any large country there are differences in opinion and methods to go about achieving a free state. But, by and large, I was astounded at how loyal the people are in general to their country and government in comparison to the United States, where the social fabric of our nation hangs by a thread, as competing interest groups, movements, racial/ethnic groups seek to obliterate the social harmony that was once America, while an evermore repressive government grows more distant from the Constitution, liberty and the Republic our forefathers gave us at the price of so much blood.\nAt the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, with the children of the men John McCain and General Scales want Americans to start killing, I realized that these people, these precious little children, are no different than my own. I was cognizant of how I had, for so very many years of my life, been deceived and lied to about other people whom I had never met. Why did I believe them? Why do my fellow countrymen often believe the lies our government tells us?\nIt can be explained in part by the simple fact that because we are just normal everyday people we mostly go about our lives in hopes of bettering ourselves, providing for our loved ones, and always hoping all the while to never harm anyone else in the process. That is who we are. That is not the government of this country where there are tens of thousands of men who spend each day of their lives plotting for \u201cU.S. interests\u201d which are code words for banking/military/industrial/police state interests. They are the elite manipulators of public will and opinion for the hidden interests they represent and work for each day. There could not be a stronger contrast: We are the people who love our families and friends, hoping to make the world a better place by the contributions we make in our lives to others, ourselves and prosperity. You already know what the government of the United States is doing, so just don\u2019t confuse the two entities. Remember us, and pray for our success in restoring liberty to our nation.\nIt has become my great hope that the people of the world will judge us accordingly and not condemn the people along with our government. That would be a grave mistake for all of mankind. For there are still millions of Americans the people of the world would much like to invite to their table, be it a \u201chumble one\u201d or a richly adorned one. It is only through understanding this, by knowing that good people are often represented by bad governments, that we can avoid future conflict and hatred between \u201cWe the People.\u201d\nAs I gazed upon the Kremlin and memorial at the Tomb of that unknown man who has become the symbol of so much sacrifice by the people of Russia, I came to fully understand that we have much more in common with each other than differences: 1) that most of our differences nowadays are made up by conniving men who foster ill will and division among the people of the world for their own nefarious secret agenda of control, domination and riches for themselves, 2) that we can by friendship and open minds, overcome any ill will\ncreated between us.\nIn the future, we must each refuse to be led by the nose like hogs to the slaughter. We must know the truth and the truth will set us free. How does this work? As a long time scholar of world affairs once told me, \u201cKnowing the truth will make you angry and that anger will set you free.\u201d There is no doubt that such is the case.\nEnd of first writing, more to follow\nIn Moscow Max French, (one of the sponsors of my trip) who was on his own Canadian fact finding mission, set up a meeting with the Russian Military Historical Society at their headquarters. Our intent was to ask questions and get answers. When the subject of a \u201cRussian Invasion\u201d of the Ukraine was broached to our host at their headquarter laughter could be heard around the room by the Russians in attendance. This was a private meeting granted as a courtesy to North American visitors. Here is a link to the meeting with a woman translator present. Not all in attendance are shown. Military Historical Society Meeting\nAs occurred often on the trip, comments were made that such claims were nothing more than U.S. propaganda promoted by the Federal government in the U.S. with support from the American \u201cnews media\u201d ( I always use the term in quotes, as the controlled establishment media in the U.S. is nothing more than an arm of the military/industrial/police state elite ruling in the U.S.). Their reasoning for the claim was that the U.S. military wanted another country in which to extend power and influence, and that the Ukraine had been chosen because it borders the Russian State.\nOn the left in this picture is a representative from the Russian Military Historical Society, in the middle the author, and on the right Max French from Canada\nIt is quite true that Russian nationals are in the Ukraine fighting as individuals.\nThey are there because they have family, or once lived in Ukraine, or because they want to defend the borders of Russia from U.S. meddling and from corrupt oligarchs like Petro Poroshenko and Igor Kolomoisky who are now ruling in Kiev and elsewhere in the Ukraine. The men who have gone to Ukraine from Russia are all considered as volunteers and are warmly welcomed by the people there who view them as protection from a corrupt illegal government installed after the elected president was replaced in a 2014 revolution. These volunteers go of their own accord, provide their own equipment, and travel as individuals across the Russian border to places where they have chosen to assist the breakaway regions of Eastern Ukraine of Donbass and Luhansk.\nThe author met and interviewed some of these men, including a young Russian sniper twenty-four years of age, who claims fifty-eight kills to his name, and allowed me to speak with him about his role there. More of this information and interviews will be discussed later in this essay.\nIt is important to realize that the people in Eastern Ukraine do not recognize the new government in Kiev, or any power by that government over them. Nor do they give any allegiance to it. They seek independence from the central government, and have taken up arms only after being invaded by the newly installed oligarchical government in Kiev.\nThat invasion is well documented and need be only briefly discussed here. Let it be said, that without a doubt, the government of Kiev has acted with murderous intent, killing and displacing many thousands in Eastern Ukraine. With each new artillery round landing upon the heads and homes of the civilian population there3, an ever greater determination to be free of Kiev is created, solidified and cemented in the hearts and minds of the people suffering from the terror of war, invasion, hunger and attempted oppression of rights and liberties.\nOther Russian/Ukrainian men and women like this young man I met in Moscow have\nvolunteered to render humanitarian aid to the breakaway republics of Ukraine. They do their best to provide food, clothing and supplies to the one million or more people there in need. That is where my efforts coincided with many of those people I met on the trip. This author, together with the help of fellow supporters from Texas and Canada, brought money to distribute to refugees.\nAn Adventure into the Unknown:\nAfter seeing pictures and videos on the internet of old people without food, children hiding in basements from Ukrainian government artillery barrages, the elderly with no place to run from the conflict, it was decided by good men of the states of Texas, Idaho and the nation of Canada to actually do more than talk about the situation. While at my present age, I did not relish the thought of a month long \u201cadventure\u201d in countries where I do not speak a word of the language, it was evident to me that more needed to be done than keyboard talking about the problems of the world. When Major General Robert H. Scales called for American men to start putting Russians and Ukrainians in \u201cbody bags,\u201d ( https://youtu.be/3EJLi23fTPg) it became clear to me that I must go and render any aid and assistance to the victims of war there, and know the truth for myself. It aided my thinking by having the long-held belief that if the U.S. government/media was calling for war, death, destruction and body bags, the government had to be supporting the wrong side, and there would be more to the story than the American people were being told. It turned out that I was quite right in that last assumption.\nOnce, a long time ago now, as a U.S. soldier I had brought war to VietNam. Now, much wiser and knowledgeable about the world around me, I wanted to bring peace. A small effort in the big picture of things, but a very large effort on the individual level. As it turned out I was welcomed and treated like royalty by the people whom I met and came into contact with in Russia and by the Ukrainians I encountered. My desire to help people that I did not know and to learn the truth about events there astounded many people I met. Some people found it difficult to believe that not all Americans wanted war, death, drones and military intervention into the affairs of yet another foreign nation.\nThe American people are admired by the Russian people while the government is despised by most of them. In this we had a great laugh, for I told them that most American citizens also despise the government and its abuse of American citizens. I explained that we love our country like few others do their nation, but we are quick to criticize the \u201cFederals\u201d when they are wrong (which seems like the majority of the time nowadays). When I spoke of Federal government spying, abuse, corruption, etc. here at home, they asked me why such a great people would endure such acts of abuse. I explained that most Americans maintained hope and faith that they could change things through the electoral system of voting, and unfortunately, were quick to believe drivel they were fed via the \u201cnews media.\u201d\nRussians are very proud of their federation and believe it to be a protector of their rights in the world. I was present at the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II and the victory parade held in Moscow on May 9th. It was an astounding sight to see a small part of the over 500,000 Russians who gathered in Moscow to celebrate the end of that most terrible war.\nFew people have suffered war and invasion like the Russians, and they are quite quick to proclaim that no one occupies their land with impunity. Invasions in the past by the Huns, Golden Horde,Tatars, Tamerlane, the French under Napoleon, the Germans and many others, never went well for those who invaded. They are a hardy people who intend on surviving whatever fate may bring their way, and to live their lives without interference from abroad.\nWoe unto the nation that enters their land with malice in their heart! I came to understand this quite well during the victory parade in a most remarkable incident that should be mentioned here.\n70th Anniversary Victory Parade, Moscow, May9th 2015\nThe parade was long with lots of soldiers, equipment, missiles and large numbers of troops marching. From time to time the people would clap and shout as troops and equipment went by. But, there was only one time loud cheering broke out from the crowd. That was when the Russian mobile nukes went by in front of the crowd. And then all at once a huge cheer erupted from the crowd, everyone around me begin to clap and shout at the sight of these terrible weapons. It was a strange surreal moment.\nPeople made it clear to me that they saw those terrible weapons as protection from countries who meant them harm. They were viewed as a sort of \u201csafety net\u201d to protect them from any and all who would wish to injure them. It was only then that I came to understand the Russian people in a way that I had not before.\nEnd of Post 2\nNukes For Peace?\nAt first this Russian popular idea of nukes for peace did not resonate with me. As I pondered this attitude, I thought back to my own experiences with such issues in my country.\nThe Russian People cheer as mobile nuclear weapons go past\nThen, such thinking rang home as I remembered that my whole life the government in the U.S. had explained the reason they had to have so many nuclear weapons in the military arsenal was to insure the \u201cpeace and safety\u201d of America. Yeah, I had heard this before many times, as it was explained why billions upon billions of dollars had to be spent by the military/industrial complex in the development and research of nukes. So, in retrospect the concept was not that foreign. If America needed them for peace, then why could not the Russian citizens need them to insure their borders and safety?\nReally, once I thought about it, the only difference was the cheerleaders for the nukes: in Russia the people, in the U.S. the government. In both cases \u201cpeace\u201d was really Orwellian speak for total annihilation of the world and everyone in it. This is not good. But, nukes are not my purpose for the trip, so I move on, retaining the thought that this whole business is more a comment on mankind in general and mankind\u2019s propensity to destroy others of his own species.\nA Visit to the Meat Grinder\nI knew from the moment the trip was on to Moscow that I would have to see where the Cheka (later NKVD) installed their human meat grinder in Lubyanka prison near the Kremlin. The grinder was connected to the sewer below, and was used by the guards to easily obtain confessions from completely innocent people who then were often, after signing the confession, fed into it. Lubyanka was run by Communist secret police, and created such fear and absolute terror in the minds and hearts of people that resistance to the communists became almost always an act of suicide. Such was the fear generated that resistance ceased for the most part and acceptance became the norm. Many years previous I had read a book by a Russian who lived to tell the story (the name escapes me now), about what it was like to be a prisoner there and to be sent through the system. It was such a horrible story that I could not forget or erase the images from my mind, and only time would allow them to recede into the recesses of my thinking, but not to forget them. Only after reading this book did I come to full realization of how cruel mankind can be to one another.\nIn front of Lubyanka are decorative stars where the communist statue to the founder of the Cheka and terror that used to be at that place once stood. Felix Dzerzhinsky no longer stands there, and beautiful flowers are planted in his place. Nonetheless, as was my habit and intent the entire duration of the trip, I cursed the spot where it had stood to symbolize mankind's rejection of such cruelty to each other. I was told that when the statue was torn down by the Russians after their liberation from communism many had urinated on the statue. I would have loved to have done the same, but was twenty-five years or so too late, and accepted the fact that the Russian people had already dealt with the spot in the appropriate manner.\nI walked the entire circumference of the building, stopping at the side door of bare steel and iron where so many hapless victims of torture had been brought through to their death. I paused and listened quietly, wondering if I may yet hear the screams of those long ago forced to endure such inhuman treatment. The building is silent now, but mankind must never ever forget what transpired at that place, for the screams of the murdered and tortured must not go unanswered by the good people of this world.\nIt is unclear to me if the youth of Russia are being taught this black history in schools today. It was my impression that much like American young people they care little for the events of the past that do not affect them directly today. A word of advice to Russian educators: if you do not want events like this to ever occur again in your country, teach the history of Lubyanka prison to your youth.\nI thought of the flowers I had placed at the Tomb of the Unknown soldier, and was sure that that person, whoever he may have been, had certainly not given his life so events like Lubyanka could occur in his country. To forget that prison is not just to forget the many thousands tortured and murdered there by insane state officials but is in addition to forget the deaths of all those many millions who died believing they were doing so in the defense of their people.\nWar is, I think, the most prime example of mankind's cruelty and stupidity towards himself and his fellow man. Six thousands years of folk legends and recorded history show that mankind has not changed in any measure whatsoever, in his primal urge to destroy others and himself by the use of combat of arms. Mankind has learned nothing from his history but to place a rosy veneer of images and words over his lust to kill. All words justifying war and destruction are little more than containers to hold the blood of innocents destined to die in conflict.\nWhen I think of the 70th anniversary of World War II held in Moscow, my thoughts are for the millions of German youth who died before this day could be possible, and for the millions of Russians who died to make the day a \u201ccelebration\u201d of victory. War is such a dirty horrible thing. I learned that day, from discussions with many Muscovites, that many of them greatly fear that the United States will attack them and once again bring them the destruction they already know so well. I wanted to proclaim loudly to them that \u201cAmerica would never do such a thing.\u201d But I could not. For under the current rule in Washington, and for many years going back to at least Hiroshima, that is in fact a real possibility, and I could not make a fool of myself by saying otherwise.\nNot lying to them about the good intentions of the U.S. Military/Industrial complex helped me to understand their cheering the nukes as they passed by.\nMy soul burdened with these thoughts I left Moscow.\nBiting the Bullet:\nThe trip to Saint Petersburg was accomplished on a high speed \u201cbullet\u201d train.\nBefore the trip to Saint Petersburg the last time I had ridden a train had been in Mexico in the 1980s. I left Mexico City on the way to M\u00e9rida in the Yucat\u00e1n Peninsula to study the archaeology wonders located not far from that city. I would not advise anyone to go backpacking through Mexico now, as under the current \u201cdrugocracy\u201d ruling that country you will be risking your life. That train, barely functional, moved along at fifteen to twenty miles per hour, smoking and heaving as it tried to make its way down the track and through the jungle the eight hundred or so miles to its destination. Along with various animals, assorted natives, a light bulb swinging from two exposed electrical wires, and no functional bathroom services for the several day trip, and having heard \u201c\u00bfcaf\u00e9 con canela?\u201d over a hundred times from large women marching through the car at every stop (one or two stops an hour, as the wheels needed oiling often and appeared to be seizing up). Suffice it to say, my description of this ordeal by rail became known to my friends as the \u201cTrain Ride from Hell.\u201d\nI abandoned that train after three days of torture, having not the faintest idea where I was, and with my backpack walked into the darkness toward lights in the distance. The Mexican government has since discontinued that train service which, I must add, did the world a great service. Honestly, I had rather trade three nights in Viet Nam during the Tet Offensive than spend another three days in that iron train from hell.\nRussia, on the other hand, is a first world country with bullet trains that travels at times near two hundred miles per hour. My trip sponsor, Max French, who is a retired railroad engineer, convinced me to try another train ride. It was with some mental trepidation as to the wisdom of his decision that I went to the railroad station in Moscow.\nI should not have worried in the least. The train ride to Saint Petersburg turned out to be linear opposite of my train ride from hell. It was wonderful, a high-speed trip without a single incident of someone shouting \u201c\u00bfcaf\u00e9 con canela?\u201d a single time, nor did the Russians ever find it necessary to stop and oil the wheels to keep them from falling off.\nHelicopter Gunner Meets Helicopter Pilot:\nAs was his custom, Max French spoke with almost everyone he met with no need for a formal introduction to start the process. Sitting across the table from us on the train was a handsome man in his late fifties. While I dozed Max began the process of trying to communicate with the distinguished looking man. Because the stranger spoke some of the English language, information was exchanged between the two of them. Soon I was told that this man just across from me had been a combat pilot of a helicopter (MU- 8 or MI in Afghanistan, which the Russians had invaded under communist rule in the late 1980s.\nAs it was my first encounter with a former Soviet military man, I was uncertain how to view him and how he would view me. How strange it felt to be sitting across a small table from a commie pilot. In times past I would have relished turning my M-60 machine gun on his aircraft, were that possible. Now he smiled at me and handed me a piece of chocolate as Max made the introductions between the two of us. We looked intently at each other with what I can only describe as \u201dknowing eyes.\u201d In heavy combat he had seen it all, it was written on his face. I felt empathy towards him immediately. A different army, a different time, a different place but a shared experience.\nAs a Soviet warrant officer in combat, as he looked at me I pondered, perhaps he was thinking of the over two thousands Stinger surface to air missiles that the U.S. government had supplied the mujahideen there, and which had been used to shoot down helicopters like the one he flew, killing his comrades at arms.\n\u201cSo, this is the face of the enemy\u201d I thought. I had hated and opposed men like him most of my life. Now, sitting next to him, he looked like one of my neighbors in Texas, just someone who had served in a different army. His smiling face was friendly and we quickly shook hands and traded information.\nThe uncertainty of how to react to him had not lasted long. As we shared experiences, we quickly became friends. It was his hope and mine that our respective nations would never be in conflict. We expressed our mutual desire for no more wars, and our hope for Russians and Americans to work together for the future. It was clear to the both of us that if it were left up to people like him and me, that desire for peace between us would be most certainly assured. Unfortunately, the very purpose of my trip and being in his country was to help end suffering caused by war in the Ukraine.\nFormer Soviet warrant officer (later promoted captain) Aznabaev Damir took a pencil and wrote on the back of a receipt his years of service in Afghanistan. Max made a stab at writing my years of service which I quickly corrected at the very top of the small note. I can truthfully say that this small piece of paper has become a treasured document for me, and I cherish it.\nSo passed the time to Saint Petersburg. It could not have been spent in a better way. I gained much insight into myself, as well as others on that ride. \u201cWhen Enemies Become Friends\u201d would make a great title for that pleasant train ride.\nRussia Has Two Capitals\nBeautiful Saint Petersburg, the cultural heart of Russia\nWhile Moscow is the governmental capital of the Russian Federation, Saint Petersburg is the cultural capital. It lies to the north and west of Moscow, and is only a short distance south of the border of Finland. To say that it is a majestic city is to make an understatement. The beauty and cultural treasures of this wonderful place are difficult to describe. Few places on earth can boast both a city and cultural background as that of Saint Petersburg. Walking the streets, the city itself seems to the onlooker to be an open air museum with each city block presenting new works of magnificent buildings and art treasures.\nThe Czar of Russia\u2019s Winter Palace is in Saint Petersburg, and in it the art and treasure of the Hermitage Museum. To understand the history and cultural of the Russian people, as well as to know who they were in the past, it is necessary for any foreign visitor to the Russian state to go to that city. It can be there that one begins to have a full appreciation for the background events and cultural m\u00e9lange that is modern Russia.\nThis process of understanding begins there with a visit to the Czar's Winter Palace and the Hermitage, which opened in the Czar\u2019s place in 1852 as an Imperial Museum. This magnificent complex of buildings, which was once the home of Russian nobility, is today home to 16,000 paintings, 12,000 sculptures and 700,000 archaeological exhibits among many other beautiful artifacts displayed in nine buildings.\nAs I toured the palace of the Czars of Russia, and looked at the historical context which formed Russia, it became clear that Russia is a much more complex nation than what most of us believe. The preconceptions of the Russian people that we had before arrival to that country fade into nothingness, as we discovered the reality that is both modern and historical Russia.\nIn touring the Winter Palace, like anyone else would be, I was greatly impressed with the wealth and magnificence of that place. After two days of taking it in, I kept returning to the throne room of the Czars to stare at it intently.\nLooking at that chair in which men and women of great power and wealth had sat, I kept thinking of the people, the common men, women and children of Russia whose lives and existence would make all this possible for the nobility to have. Call it my simple, common background if you wish, but my mind always goes to the people, not to the rulers of a country when considering the life, breath and duration of any great nation.\nStanding there by the throne chair of the Czar, I could not help but wonder what kind of lives and existence the typical person would have lived in those days that would make it possible for the few to accumulate so very much wealth, for so much in the hands of the few makes for a hard life for the many. It was clear to me that the average person in Russia when the Czar ruled would have never trod where my feet were.\nMy attitude towards people, people everywhere in my country, is that of the Founding Fathers of the American state, which was, that each man held his rights, liberties, freedom and property by unalienable right, and \u201cthat they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness,\u201d and that all of the above cannot, will not and shall not be abused by any government whatsoever.\nClearly, to me, this was not the case in a Russia ruled by Czars, or certainly not by a communist totalitarian police state. For that matter, neither was it true from the times of the ancient Sumerian Empire to the founding of the American state, which to my great pride as a decedent, changed everything, not only for those of my own country, but indeed for the world at large. For the world would come to know and seek the freedom that was the United States\u2019 political background that produced the Declaration of Independence and rebellion to the King of England.\nI realized that while Russia had its Czars, Europe had had its kings and nobility, and from time to time its strong men ruling the people under them with an iron fist, as had China its divine Emperors, Egypt its god-Pharaohs, Pre-Columbian America with Inca, Mayan, Aztec etc. dynastic god kings and every other known civilization with one sort or another of potentate determined to crush any of the common people who opposed them throughout history. So, really, the Czarist period of Russian is much more a comment on mankind in general than of Russia in specific.\nEven now in my own country, the United States, a political elite of wealth far exceeding any Czar or king of Europe has come to power and is seeking, through their banking/military/ industrial/police state combines, to create a ruling oligarchical \u201cnobility\u201d of Bushes, Clintons and others closely related to them by money, power, connection and statist belief.\nIt occurred to me that I was in modern Russia, the Russia of 2015, and as I was learning that the people there today consider themselves quite free to live their lives and pursue their dreams as they deem fit. The idea of personal liberties and personal responsibility for their lives has taken root, and will never be turned back there again. For once a people have tasted freedom, they will accept nothing else in the future.\nWith a far greater understanding of Russia and its history we left for a very long journey by train for a special meeting to be held in the city of Vladikavkaz, North Ossetia, Russia, and to meet for the very first time, what I consider to be one of the truly great minds of modern Russia produced by the common folk of that country: Alexander Mezentsev, a descendant of the Cossacks. He will most surely object to my thoughts about his great intellectual abilities, for he, like myself, considers himself nothing more than a common man of the people and is happy to be so.\nAnother long journey begins from the tip of the north to one of the most southern parts of Russia\nThe trip to Vladikavkaz would require a sixty-hour train ride from the north of Russia to the far south, then east into North Ossetia. We could have flown there in three or so hours by jet. Yet, it was our intention from the start of the trip to get to know the Russian people and their country. This could be better done by crossing their nation on rail than by plane. Still, it was with some foreboding that I boarded the train for that trip of over two days, as I still suffer from Mexican Train Ride post-traumatic-stress: MTRPTS.\nWe shared a private cabin with a Russian couple who soon became our friends, as did most of the other people in our car before the trip ended. Once you get past the doubt and fear the Russian people have about Americans being part of the \u201cputting-them-in-body-bags\u201d crowd, the people are almost always friendly and curious about what it is like to be an American, and endless gestures of hospitality from them then ensue.\nBy the time we reached the first stop at a small rail station in the countryside, Max and I were friends with many of the people, and they were buying us food, ice cream, and giving Max cigarettes, which is a Russian sign of friendliness to those whom they like. (Was there anyone in Russia besides me who did not smoke?)\nEven the children who seem to be quite shy in general were coming up to me on the rail car and wanting to try their hand at communicating with the \u201cAmerican.\u201d In hopes of creating better international relations, I made it a point to always explain that I was a Texan first, and an American second. Texas is known all over the world by people in general, and my experience from Thailand to Costa Rica is that Texans are greeted with a smile and friendliness. No doubt this is in part more a result of cowboy movies and Texas culture in general than any real knowledge of the people there.\nThere were seven or eight soldiers on the car with us who were on the way to their homes on leave from military service. When they first heard there were Americans on board they were less than friendly toward us. Max French in his usual manner would not bode them thinking poorly of us, and went to them explaining our reason for being in the country they were sworn to defend. Soon, Max was smoking with them at stops along the way and one of them who heard I was in search of a bottle of water brought me a soft drink and placed it in my hand with a big smile of friendlessness. They had been convinced by Max, and by the other passengers who had already met us, that we were there for good intentions, and they too desired to welcome us. From then on these young soldiers were smiling at us as they passed in the car, requiring me to refuse their endless offers of smokes.\nThe sixty hour trip to Vladikavkaz was a long ride, yet I would not trade that ride instead for a jet plane. For it was on this lengthy trip, living closely next to the Russians in our cabin, and sharing a train car with people from all walks of life, that I came to have a better comprehension of their character and mannerisms. When our new found friends, who were traveling a shorter distance than we were, began to exit at their final destinations, they would come to us and say goodbye, often throwing in a hug to boot.\nSuch are the Russian people.\nAs we approached our final destination in North Ossetia it was with great interest that I looked forward to meeting Alexander Mezentsev for the first time in person. For over ten years I had corresponded with him by email about the political affairs of his country and mine, history, archaeology, anthropology, great writers and books and most other subjects that students of mankind and his existence on this place we call earth want to know and understand. Now, I was to meet the person behind the phenomenal knowledge he so often displayed. He is an enigma to me in many ways. A man placed by nature in that faraway place in Ossetia, in what appears to me as a foreigner to that land, to be a remote outpost of civilization and culture. I had often wondered why such a man was not teaching in a major university in Moscow or Saint Petersburg where he would no doubt be a delight to his students in their quest for an understanding of the world around them.\nYet, there Alex was, just north of the Caucasus Mountains of both fame and lore, happily living his life, doing research, working for a major cultural institution and studying the people of the world. At the very least this man should be on a consulting contract for the Russian government for his great knowledge of mankind and their predisposition to misunderstand each other. He demonstrates an innate ability to clear up such matters quickly.\nOur meeting was that of long lost friends with repeated handshakes and embraces of friendship. Gazing upon him I could not help but think of someone out of 1950\u2019s America. Something about him made me think of those whom I had known in earlier years of my life. We were all comfortable with each other from the beginning, and that only increased as time went by. We were to meet for friendship, understanding and hopes of creating a better understanding between his people and mine. Many discussions followed about American history, political matters and the cultural of both countries, and the great need to avoid conflict between our respective nations.\nSocializing with him, and soon his friends, was to leave me with the firm belief that there could never be a reasonable reason for hostilities between the Russian people and American citizens. If the politicians want to fight, then, let them. To the senators, presidents and members of governing bodies of both countries who want war, let us issue Rambo machine guns, grenades, knives and a canteen full of water, and let them have at it.\nFor the rest of us--- Russian vodka and American apple pie, together as one.\nA Gathering to be Remembered\nAt the state library we met with Alexander Mezentsev and other men from North Ossetia. As was the Russian custom there was food and vodka along with the discussion. Perhaps it was just me, but it seems that after several toasts to lasting friendship there was more friendship and less discussion. Nonetheless, these good-hearted men did their utmost to insure both Max and me that they desired nothing but good relations with us and America in general. This meeting was not one that can be forgotten. I found these Russians to be not only kind, but extending to us every hospitality at their disposal.\nOnce again, there was only laughter at the American \u201cnews media\u201d claim of 12,000 Russians soldiers invading the Ukraine.\nA great time was had by all and the meeting ended far too soon for some of us.\nMany Americans are so far behind in their Fox \u201cnews\u201d that they think the communists (who are no longer in power) still somehow outlaw guns in Russia! I would urge such people as that to watch the \u201cnews media\u201d more. But then, that would only make matters worse for them. Max and I wanted to know if Russians could own guns or were they still not free men as they had once been under their communist rulers? My request to see a gun store in which Russians could buy a gun was met by our host in Vladikavkaz, Alexander Mezentsev.\nAs almost always the Russian people go out of their way to be friendly. The picture below is taken in front of a gun store located on a street in Vladikavkaz. When the owner saw me outside he invited Max French and me to come in and view his store. Mr. Putin obviously does not fear guns in the hands of the Russian people, for there were plenty of them to be had. In fact any Texas gun store would have found the supply quite adequate to meet the needs of Texans on a normal day\u2026 To my surprise switchblade knives were legal and many different kinds could be bought there and elsewhere in department stores, or from small outlets.\nA gun store in Vladikavkaz\nSo yes, this time around, any would-be communist mass murders, like \u201cIron Felix\u201d and Joseph Stalin, will not have their way with the Russian people. Nor, may I add, will anyone else.\nOne of the things that stood out to me was how well the Greek Orthodox Christians of the north Caucasus region of Russia get along with those who are of Muslim faith. While it has not always been that way, today there is peace and accord between them.\nIn times past there had been bitter warfare between Christian Russia and Muslim invaders. Islamic armies invaded starting in the ninth century, and continued to occupy much of the north Caucasus region until the 16th century. They even managed to burn parts of Moscow. Well over two million Russian people were exported to the Ottoman Empire as slaves. The Muslim defeats and suppression in the 16th century put an end to such things. Today there is little conflict in the region north of the Caucasus mountains.\nMosque in Vladikavkaz\n\u201cDefender of the Pass\u201d\nThe statue of the \u201cDefender of the Pass\u201d has so much history behind it that I can only mention it here. Off in the distance from this monument is the great pass of legend and folklore known as Daryal Pass. From this pass through the Caucasus Mountains ancient Aryan tribes migrated north into what we know today as Russian and surrounding areas. Flowing down from this pass is the river Terek which runs through modern day Vladikavkaz. If rivers could but talk, such great stories could they whisper into our ears, of tens of thousands, following their banks, in treks over many thousands of years.\nSoon we began our journey west from North Ossetia to the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don, which is about 100 miles from the border with Ukraine and the largest city in the area.\nIt was from Rostov that we would go to the Ukrainian border area. Arriving in Rostov, we found it to be a beautiful place full of life, culture, people and young students seeking to get a degree in their chosen field or endeavor.\nRostov Theatre\nWe were met at the train station by two young Russian men, both of whom spoke English. It turned out they were college students and quite bright. They led us by foot and bus to our hostel.\nSoon we had made friends with these two strangers, who quickly introduced us to more of their young crowd. A large gathering ensued at the hostel where we were spending the night, with many questions about our purpose for being there. As usual\u2014 in these get-togethers of friendship making\u2014 vodka flowed freely. The discussions turned to NSA spying, not on Russians as one would have thought, but Edward Snowden\u2019s revelations had convinced our hosts that the NSA was a threat to American citizens, and they demanded our passports so they could \u201cnuke\u201d them.\nWhile at the time I thought \u201cnuking my passport\u201d was a bad idea, and stated so, it would have been unwise to reject the request of six or more vodka infused Russians, and further, in the interest of maintaining good international relations, I somewhat reluctantly met their demand. Into the microwave one at a time the passports went for \u201cexactly 3 seconds,\u201d at the end of which a very large flash from the microwave lit up the room. Then, still smoking, my passport was handed back to me. (Note to federals reading this---I felt that I had no choice in the matter.)\nA Brief Background to Understanding the Conflict\nThe current situation in the Ukraine can quickly get confusing to those Americans who have not studied the events in Ukraine over the past two years, and who use only the \u201cnews media\u201d as a source of information. In a nutshell, with no attempt here to do anything but provide a simple understanding of the current situation in Ukraine, the following information will help:\nThere was a revolution in Kiev against the duly elected (many agree corrupt) leader of that country. After the elected president Viktor Yanukovych fled the country for Russia, new corrupt leaders appointed themselves head of the state in 2014. Conflict then broke out between those who supported the new leaders and those who did not.\nAt first, the Ukrainian armed forces refused to militarily suppress the people in Eastern Ukraine (Donbass/Luhansk) who opposed the new government. Then, a new election was held in Kiev in an attempt to legitimize their power, with little to no voting by the people in Eastern Ukraine. Neither did they recognize the revolutionary junta in Kiev as having the power to call for an election, nor could find a safe place to vote, and so boycotted the election.\nBefore the new election ever took place many oligarchs were working behind the scenes and in public to make conflict inevitable. One example will suffice: Yulia Tymoshenko. She, under President Yanukovych, had been charged and convicted in court with embezzlement of $188 million and ordered to repay the Ukrainian people.\nAfter the revolution the law was rewritten and her crime became no longer a crime. She is now free of charges, conviction and the threat of imprisonment. After meeting with European, American and Nato representatives, she suggested the formation of a \u201cspecial headquarter\u201d to suppress resistance to the new government which she disguised verbally as protecting Ukraine from Russia. This act, and many more like it by other \u201celites\u201d like her, along with manipulations by secret factions\u2014 some financed by the U.S. government\u2014 insured war would come to the land.\n(Though all this corruption in the Ukraine may sound much like political/banker corruption in the U.S., there is a big difference\u2014 in the amounts stolen. Wall Street financiers steal money in the U.S. by billions via the privately owned Federal Reserve System, making Ukrainian oligarchs look like small town thieves.)\nOur hopes regarding what could be done:\nMax and I hoped to immediately meet with representatives of the people of Donbass and Luhansk, and through them provide aid to the refugees driven from their homes or who remained behind, because they had nowhere else to go. We further wished to confirm one way or the other (insomuch as we could) as to whether or not Russian army soldiers were involved in the conflict, as the U.S. \u201cnews media\u201d and generals/politicians claimed they were.\nOur first day in Rostov we met with a volunteer soldier who had just returned to the Russian side of the border from Donbass, in the Ukraine, where he had grown up and still had family. This soldier was of South Korean descent, for his security and that of his family he will remain unnamed. His parents after immigrating to the Ukraine reared him in Donbass, and though married and living in the Rostov area, he firmly believed it his duty to return and protect his friends and family there, as well as to oppose the invasion by the newly created \u201cpunitive\u201d forces of the now in-power government in Kiev.\nWe were to spend the next two days in conversation and in questioning him about his role and without their knowledge without their knowledge any supposed involvement of Russian soldiers in the fighting in his homeland. Then, we would go to the border area ourselves.\nA soldiers pay...\nAs a former soldier myself, I knew the questions to be asked and the answers one would expect from someone engaged in combat, so there would be little chance for deception. It soon became clear that there was no need for deception of any kind by those doing the fighting.\nIn these meetings with this first soldier we learned that those on the separatist side (Donbass/Luhansk) were paid five dollars a week to fight, to risk their lives, and to suffer the usual privations of most soldiers, which would be in part bad food, no sleep, unknowing fear of what the future may bring, thoughts of death, missing your family, shellshock, no bath for days or weeks, bad hygiene and friends killed or missing in combat\u2014 to name a few. This, for five bucks a week in pay. Obviously this was but a token of thanks to them for their service.\nIt quickly became evident to us that this is a war being fought by many for their homeland and families. My admiration for this man, and the others like him in the army of which he was a part, grew immeasurably at this point. We would soon talk to others at the border of Ukraine who had similar stories. I wish to make it clear, that as a private citizen I can only report what we were able to hear and see for ourselves. Thus, I have no way of knowing personally if the Russians are \u201csneaking\u201d soldiers and equipment across the border without the knowledge of Russian citizens (very unlikely). Of all the people with whom we spoke, to the man, they did not believe that without their knowledge Russian armed forces were in Donbass fighting.\nWe Leave for the Russian Border\nWe got on the bus for the city of Donetsk in the Ukraine not knowing how far we would be allowed to go into the war torn area. Donetsk would be the new capital of \u201cNovorossiya\u201d as some call it---if they win their war for independence. On the Russian side of the border we passed through beautiful fields well planted in rich soil.\nThe crops were up and the farmers were busy at work. It all looked like an agrarian paradise as far as the eye could see.\nIn my mind I, thought of this area in 1941, when German Panzers and huge numbers of young infantrymen were advancing on Rostov so sure of victory. They underestimated the Russian people and their will to fight for their homeland even at a terrible loss of life that most nations could not or would not endure. 25,000,000 Russians would die but their land would still belong to them when it was over in 1945. Beneath my breath I cursed all of those leaders on every side of the war who sought conflict over reason; German, Russian, American, British, French, Polish, all who would sacrifice their young men as governments have always done in history rather than choose life for their people. Mankind seems to never learn from the suffering of past generations. That war, WW II, some sixty millions of our species would die. I wondered how many would die the next time such \u201cleaders\u201d bring war? As the miles rolled by, I mused about \u201cWhat ancient black curse, what genetic malformation of humans so consumes us that anointed leaders from most ancient times to the present day deal with disputes in ways that involve other people dying besides them?\u201d\nWe shared the bus with young men of combat age in addition to what can be described as the usual mix of women and children found on any public transportation. I noticed some men in military dress but none wore Russian military uniforms with insignia. They were dressed in different types of military clothing reflecting personal taste or the different self-defense militia units they served with in the Ukraine. Max began questioning them about where they were from and why they were fighting in the war for independence from the Kiev government. All but one stated that they were either a citizen of Donbass or had relatives living there who they were protecting from Ukrainian government terrorism.\nThe bus stopped near the border. Absorbed in thought, I walked off alone from groups of talking people, to view the beautiful flat fields that went as far as the eye could see. Suddenly, an 82 MM mortar round, landed somewhere across that wide expanse. I immediately recognized what it was. Everyone turned and looked in that direction while I stood there in a time warp encapsulated in a flashback to the last time I had heard that sound. The distinctive impact of that round had not changed one bit since I had last heard it in 1968. Later that night, I would once again have dreams of Vietnam as my mind sorted through the day\u2019s experience, making for an unrestful night. War so changes us as human beings that we are never the person we were belore it.\nAs people gathered in groups casually talking, Max joined them. As always in encounters with random people on the trip, Max quickly became an icebreaker of conversation, rapidly making friends with those around him. The Russians/Ukrainians traded war stories among themselves and with Max. After Max having explained our purpose for being there as a humanitarian mission, the young men all became quite friendly to him offering him smokes (universal sign of goodwill in Russia). Several were able to speak English and our interpreter stood with them filling in any blanks for Max as needed.\nAs I watched them talking from a distance of a few yards, one very tall, muscular fit young man caught my attention from the beginning. Observing him I noticed that he was dressed impeccably in his uniform of dark green camo with a camo pack he carried carefully. His bearing was that of one who is confident of himself and his abilities. Max had told the group of young men gathered around him that I had been a door gunner on a helicopter and this led the confident young man to my side offering his hand to me in a display of soldierly friendship. With a grip of iron in his hand, a broad smile, and while speaking English fluently we talked as he looked at me with curiosity in his eyes. His curiosity was matched by mine about him.\nAfter briefly confirming that I was once a soldier like him, I asked questions about his involvement in the war. Was he a Russian or Ukrainian? He said he was Russian. Was he in the Russian military? No. He had been discharged three years ago. What was his training? He had been trained as a sniper during his service. Why was he in the Ukraine fighting? To kill Nazis. Who are the Nazis? Special units sent by the Kiev government to kill the people.4 What do you do there? \u201cI kill them.\u201d He then stated that as a sniper he had killed 58 enemy soldiers. Pulling an American-made zippo cigarette lighter from his pocket, he showed it to me. \u201cI took this from the body of a Blackwater mercenary from America.\u201d He further explained that he knew this because he examined the body for documents and found ID that showed the man was from Texarkana, Arkansas. I wondered silently to myself, what great quantity of money or stupidity had led the man from Texarkana to fight in a war not his, while invading the homeland of other people so distant from his own.\nThe sniper then said there were many paid mercenaries from U.S. companies fighting for the Kiev government, and he was proud to have killed this one particularly, because he had been accused of rape by a young women. The young man then told me he would fight till they were all dead or went back to where they came from. I do not doubt his words in the least. For as we stared into each others eyes, I saw deep down in him a firm resolve. I am glad that our meeting was at three feet rather than three thousand.\nWe are turned back by Russian Border Guards\nAt the border Russian guards refused us entry to the Ukraine area of conflict\nWe had hoped to be allowed by the Russians to enter into Ukraine so that we could deliver money and goodwill to the refugees so badly treated by the Kiev government, and then to return to Rostov and fly back to the States. The Russian border guard officials were extremely nice to us and showed us every courtesy, but would not allow our entry into Donbass. We were in fact invited into the office of the chief of the border guards and given seats while we talked about our intent to aid the people in Donbass who were suffering. This official quickly shook our hands and complimented us on our \u201cwonderful\u201d efforts. But, he then stated, after a phone call to Moscow by him, that if we entered into Ukraine, we would have to leave by way of Kiev, and could not reenter Russia. We could not accept that proposition, as we were sure that we would not be treated kindly by Kiev\u2019s oligarchs and officials after having helped the refugees that they were driving from their homes and killing almost every day in artillery shelling.5\nNo military equipment from Russia at the main crossing into Donbass, Ukraine\nMax and I were, to say the least, terribly disappointed at not being able to go on to the city of Donetsk where we had hoped to work in assisting refugees and gain more firsthand information about the conflict. Nonetheless, we had done all that we could, so we returned to Rostov with our soldier-guide who had served us so well. Since our guide was to return to his militia unit in two more days, and he knew personally many civilians in distress, the decision was made to give him the money for the refugees that we had collected before our trip. We also gave him Texas and Canadian flags for him to distribute to people along with the money. We wanted the people there in Donbass to know that not everyone in the United States and Canada was a complete fool, believing \u201cnews media\u201d reports and warmongering ex-generals\u2019 calls for bodybags.\nAs I watched, the young men with whom we had traveled, who had been cleared by customs, loaded their bags back on the bus to enter Donbass. I wondered about their future, and that of their families for whom they were fighting. No doubt, if the war continues, some of them will die. It is all so unnecessary, if man were but a better creature than he is.\nOur guide and interpreter in the middle, a member of the self-defense forces of Donbass\nOn our return to Rostov we were greeted once again by our many new friends and invited before our departure for home to go to the Don River for a day of rest. What follows are my final thought on that day and the Russian people.\nA Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream on the Banks of the Don River\nIt all seems like a dream now. We were that day on the banks of a river so far away now, the Don River. The friends, music, food, the couples holding hands and the laughter of little children surrounding us\u2014 all sights and sounds familiar to most Americans. But, I was on the other side of the world, in a land I had only heard about in frightful terms as I grew up in the United States during the \u201cCold War.\u201d Indeed, the word \u201cRussians\u201d for many years always made me think of hiding under my wooden desk during grade school drills for nuclear war. Later in life the thought would occur to me as to why children got \u00bd inch of wood over their heads, while politicians who would start the war got mountains under which to hide. Clearly, I would conclude, misplaced priorities, it should be the other way around. Mankind would greatly benefit were it so.\nThe people around me who had brought me to that beautiful spot were foreigners. Or was I perhaps the foreigner? After all I was in their country at the southern tip of Russia, not far from the Sea of Azov. Yet, they treated me as one of them, and I could not have felt more at home than if I had been on Canyon Lake in Texas. I was made to feel welcome\u2014 no, so much more than that! I was made to feel wanted. Our new friends had made every effort to make that day both a pleasant and memorable one for the Canadian and the Texan\u2014 efforts that were not in vain.\nListening to the music playing in the distance, I suddenly realized the songs drifting my way were in English, and the music was a country music tune. I found myself singing along with the Russians to a Willie Nelson song. The thought occurred to me that many Russians listen to our music, read our classic authors, and just like many Americans nowadays, hate the politicians and government in Washington, D.C. (District of Corruption). Perhaps that is why they like me so much\u2014 we hold much in common.\nDuring our visit, we had tried at every opportunity to foster understanding of America and the good people who live there. To help Russians differentiate between the people of the United States and the corrupt government of the United States, I tried to make it clear to them that most Americans are, in fact, good people. I wanted to ensure that they did not hold the decent people of my country responsible for the words of the military general on Fox \u201cnews\u201d calling for their husbands, fathers and brothers to be put in bodybags, any more than I held them responsible for the crimes of Stalin.\n\u201cWe did not say that\u2014 the mad General did,\u201d was often my message in one form or another. To my great regret, almost every person we met on the trip knew of the call for the killing of Russians. Their reaction was one of resentment of and contempt for those who would think to urge for yet another war. The Russians have had enough of war. As one inquired, \u201cHave not the Americans had enough war yet?\u201d I assured him the people and soldiers had their fill of it. Rather, it was the politicians who did no fighting, and the \u201cnews\u201d media who are nothing more than paid verbal prostitutes, who constantly beat the war drums while instilling one fear after the other in our people.\nAs a note, when watching what passes for the \u201cnews,\u201d I often thought of each fear-instilling report as \u201cthe enemy of the day.\u201d Realizing that each menace, each threat, new or old, as having been caused by Washington D.C. politicians interfering in the affairs of other nations. Daily, the incessant war babble from politicians and \u201cnews\u201d media resembles the drivel given to the American people for a need to search for \u201cweapons of mass destruction\u201d in Iraq, which led to the invasion of Iraq\u2014 the first time. That futile search was such a public relations disaster for the warmongers that they would need a new reason for the next invasion. Indeed, listening to the vacuous effluvia discharged from the talking-heads of American TV is like being sentenced to read George Orwell\u2019s book 1984 each day for the rest of your life. 6\nI explained to the people I met that many Americans were just like them, occupied working, rearing families and going to the park or lake, w\nProof that the Ukrainian Azov Battalion is Nazi:\n[image: Nazi symbols on helmets worn by members of Ukraine's Azov\nbattalion.

I am willing to defend my opinions. Why are you not willing to do the same?\nDCT wrote:\nWho the f**k caused the Nazi insurrection, Monsieur? Try answering that one; I think you might, if you were truthful, come up with the same set of shi*e balls who run CANVAS, and who organised all the 'Colour Revolutions' and the 'Arab Spring'.\nWilling to argue that, are we?\nI am only willing to discuss evidence, not baseless statements. In my post on the previous page I presented the evidence that Russia did in fact invade Ukraine. Do you agree with that statement or not? If not, you will have to debate the evidence I presented rather than trying to shift the discussion away from the evidence.\nThe US Has Invaded 70 Nations Since 1776 \u2013\nMake 4 July Independence From America Day\n'The 4th of July is Independence Day for the United States of America and commemorates the 4 July 1776 Declaration of Independence for America, the key passage of which is \u201c We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. \u201d Unfortunately American racism has grossly violated the proposition that \u201call men are created equal\u201d and the worst form of racism involves invasion of other countries. The US has invaded about 70 countries since its inception and has invaded a total of about 50 countries since 1945 [1]. The World needs to declare a transition from the 4th of July as Independence for America Day to the 4th of July as Independence from America Day....'\n'More than 1000 US Bases and/or Military Installations':\nhttp://www.globalresearch.ca/the-worldwide-network-of-us-military-base s/5564\n'The main sources of information on these military installations (e.g. C. Johnson, the NATO Watch Committee, the International Network for the Abolition of Foreign Military Bases) reveal that the US operates and/or controls between 700 and 800 military bases Worldwide.\nIn this regard, Hugh d\u2019Andrade and Bob Wing\u2019s 2002 Map 1 entitled \u201cU.S. Military Troops and Bases around the World, The Cost of \u2018Permanent War\u2019\u201d, confirms the presence of US military personnel in 156 countries.\nThese facilities include a total of 845,441 different buildings and equipments. The underlying land surface is of the order of 30 million acres. According to Gelman, who examined 2005 official Pentagon data, the US is thought to own a total of 737 bases in foreign lands. Adding to the bases inside U.S. territory, the total land area occupied by US military bases domestically within the US and internationally is of the order of 2,202,735 hectares, which makes the Pentagon one of the largest landowners worldwide (Gelman, J., 2007)....'\nI have a hunch you are barking up the wrong tree....!\nAnd: '45 Million Americans Still Stuck Below Poverty Line: Census':\nhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/09/16/poverty-household-income_n_58 28974.html\n'President' Obama: 'I'm good at killing people' (re drone strikes).\nAnd for your info, DCT, the Ukranian airforce downed MH17, INTENTIONALLY (the 'beyond their shelf life' air to air missiles that were used had been taken out of service, but were hurriedly brought back into use two weeks before the shoot-down. I wonder why, given that the separatists had no aircraft?\nA guy who saw the plane take off with the air-to-air missiles, and later saw it return without them, said the pilot was shook up, and muttered something about the plane being in the wrong place at the wrong time - he obviously had been told a different story, perhaps that it was Putin's plane.\nBut it was Kiev who rerouted the plane to fly over the war zone....they knew precisely what they were doing, and that they wanted that airliner downed in order to blame the separatists and Russia.\nJust another classic 'False Flag' op; you would learn a lot about them, and their prevalence in fomenting wars and internal crackdowns of civil rights, if you search through this Forum.\nOh, yes; one decent journalist, who blew the whistle on Western lies to demonise Russia: 'Presstitute Turned Whistleblower: 'Bought Journalism' Paid By CIA': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q7SR_kYxIM\noutsider:\nThe number of countries invaded by US has nothing to do with the point I am arguing. US certainly didn't invade Russia, and even if they did, it's not an excuse for Russia to invade Ukraine.\nInstead of addressing my evidence of Russia's invasion into Ukraine, you keep making more baseless statements not backed by any evidence. You claim MH17 was shot down by Ukraine but you don't bother producing any evidence to support that. The video you linked to doesn't mention Ukraine at all.\nWant to discuss MH17? Fine, but only after you either agree that Russia did in fact invade Ukraine or after addressing my evidence supporting that claim.\nSure, the video doesn't mention Ukraine; but it DOES cite the demonising of Russia as the 'straw that broke the camel's back', the thing that made Udo break away from his 'Presstitute' role, and not only cease what he was doing, but also to blow the whistle on the whole sordid MSM lie business.\nIf Russia did invade Ukraine, it would be to protect the 'Separatists' from the US and EU-backed largely Nazi thugs that commit War Crimes against them virtually every day, bombarding civilians and using prohibited weapons against them. They would also be protecting their strategic interests, including the Crimean bases.\nHave you reserved your place in 'Dr. Strangelove's' bunkers?\nYou are not willing to fully admit that Russia did invade the Ukraine, yet I am going to count your \"if they did, it's because of ...\" as admission, given that you are not willing to argue my evidence either.\nNow, having established that Russia did invade the Ukraine, what are the implications of that? One country invades another, without a declaration of war, and is lying to the whole world about it. Would it be reasonable to trust its state-controlled media (RT) not to lie about other things in Ukraine? Where does your information on \"Nazi thugs\", \"War Crimes\" or \"bombarding civilians\" comes from? Pretty much all of it can be traced to one of the following sources:\n1. Russian state-controlled media.\n2. Separatist media.\n3. Blog posts that don't reference their sources.\nNow, if the Russian government can lie about (not) invading Ukraine, shouldn't we expect lies from its state controlled media as well? In fact, I can produce many examples of such lies by the Russian state media. There is a whole website stopfake.org that documents and debunks these lies.\nThe separatist media is also directly or indirectly under Russia's control, so the point above applies to it as well. As for blog posts that don't reference their sources, those can't be taken seriously under any circumstances, especially keeping in mind the army of trolls that Kremlin employs.\nIf you want to discuss MH17, I am willing to do so, but this time it's up to you to produce the evidence supporting your statement that Ukraine downed it.\nI'd like you counter your \"dropping bombs on civilians\" argument right away, even though you haven't produced any evidence to support it yet. My argument goes like this:\nYou may or may not be aware that Ukrainian TV is not available on separatist-controlled territories (if only through a satellite dish). Hell, even some adjacent Ukrainian-controlled territories don't have Ukrainian TV coverage. That's because broadcasting towers covering that area are under separatists' control. They broadcast only Russian as well as their own local TV. The same TV that tells them about fascists, nazis, bombing of civilians and stuff like that. Surely this situation is not in Ukraine's best interest. Why won't they just bomb those broadcasting towers? Ukraine certainly has the means to do so, and yet, it hasn't been done. The reason it hasn't been done is precisely to avoid civilian casualties, as those towers tend to be located in densely populated areas.\nYou are not prepared to fully admit that the US and EU were behind the February 2014 Kiev coup.....\nTonyGosling:\nHere we go again. Rather than addressing my evidence showing that Russia did invade Ukraine, you are making yet another baseless statement. What exactly did US and EU do? Did they give money to all 200,000 protesters in Kiev?\nI am not going to argue that point though, until you either agree that Russia did invade Ukraine or until you address my evidence supporting that.\nLet me re-iterate my question again: why are you not willing to address that evidence? You sound very much like those 9/11 debunkers who are refusing to address the evidence of controlled demolition.\nNot sure about these tanks\nPretty clear there are Russian soldiers training Novorussian forces just as French, British and US troops are training Kiev armed forces\nNATO ground troops however ARE in Ukraine\nNATO Launches Massive Troop Drills in Ukraine: Russia Warns It Will Affect Ceasefire in Eastern Ukraine\nBy Kalyan Kumar \uf202@diplomatist10 on July 22 2015 4:22 PM\nhttp://www.ibtimes.com.au/nato-launches-massive-troop-drills-ukraine-r ussia-warns-it-will-affect-ceasefire-eastern-ukraine\nIN PHOTO: Russia's envoy to the European Union Vladimir Chizhov arrives for an EU-Russia-Ukraine trilateral energy meeting at the European Commission headquarters in Brussels June 11, 2014. Russia and Ukraine will resume efforts to resolve a gas pricing dispute on Wednesday after a Russian deadline for Kiev to pay some of its debts passed without Moscow cutting off supplies. Reuters/Francois Lenoir\nWestern military alliance NATO has begun troop exercises in Ukraine by assembling 2000 troops from 18 countries in the first ever massive drill on Ukrainian soil, amidst warnings from Russia that the war games will undermine the peace process going on in eastern Ukraine. Ukraine's Defense Ministry said troops are in an exercise known as \"Rapid Trident\" at the Yavoriv military training field at Lviv region. It started on July 20.\nThe US-led exercises, now progressing near the city of Lvov in western Ukraine will go on until the end of July. \u201cMultinational exercises have been conducted in Ukraine since 1995, however it is safe to say that this is the largest multinational exercise held in Ukraine to date,\u201d said Don Wrenn, public affairs specialist for the U.S. Army in Europe. There are also troops from Germany, Spain, Turkey, Canada, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania besides non-members such as Serbia, Moldova, Georgia and Azerbaijan participating in the exercises.\nAccording to Wrenn, the international troops will be practising casualty evacuation, first aid, response to ambush, identification of improvised explosive devices and simulated outpost operations. He said, it has nothing to do with the political situation and was planned ahead of time with the countries being notified and is not directly connected with the situation there. Despite that assertion, during the flag rising ceremony, Ukrainian forces commander, Oleksandr Syvak, said the war games \u201cdisplay a broad support for Ukraine in its struggle for freedom and sovereignty.\u201d\nHarming Ceasefire\nCautioning Ukraine and NATO, Russia\u2019s Foreign Ministry in a statement warned that NATO drills in Ukraine will threaten the peaceful settlement of the conflict in eastern Ukraine. It described NATO\u2019s actions as \u201cfueling revanchist moods among the party of war in Kiev and will jeopardise the outlined progress in the peaceful settlement of a deep internal crisis in Ukraine.\u201d The internecine fighting in Ukraine broke out in April 2014 after the new Ukrainian government sent troops to Donbass, which had refused to recognize the change of guard in the capital Kiev.\nRussian envoy to NATO, Aleksandr Grushko, also warned that the maneuvers would \"disrupt\" the Minsk agreement, aimed at putting an end to the fighting between government forces and rebels in eastern Ukraine. According to sources, the maneuvers also involve armoured personnel carriers, helicopters, and hitech military hardware.\nRevelations in the Maidan Massacre trial in Ukraine go unreported in the west\nBy Ivan Katchanovski, on Facebook, July 22, 2015\nhttps://alethonews.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/revelations-in-the-maidan- massacre-trial-in-ukraine-go-unreported-in-the-west/\nA delayed trial of two Berkut police members in the Maidan Massacre case [1] have produced striking new revelations providing further confirmations of major findings of my Maidan \u201csnipers\u2019 massacre\u201d study about Maidan snipers killing both police and protesters and subsequent cover up and falsification of the official investigation.[2] But these striking revelations have not been reported by the Ukrainian and Western media, even though the trial proceedings were open to the media, were streamed live over the Internet and their recordings were posted on YouTube.\nOn July 15, 2015, the prosecution made public in court for the first time its charges alleging that two arrested members of the Berkut special company massacred 39 out of 49 killed protesters on February 20, 2014.\nHowever, the prosecution\u2019s case unraveled on July 17 when the brother of one of the victims stated during his questioning by the prosecutors that Andrii Saienko was killed not from Berkut positions but from a top floor of the Maidan-controlled Hotel Ukraina. He made this conclusion on the basis of his brother\u2019s position as shown in a video at the moment of his killing and an entry wound location in upper right chest area and a steep wound channel to the backbone. The prosecutors and relatives of some of the victims reported during the trial that technical expert reports in the investigative file established that Saienko and at least 9 other protesters were killed from the same exact 7.62mm caliber weapon.\nThis revelation alone means that a significant proportion of the protesters were shot from this Maidan-controlled hotel, since this caliber bullets were extracted from bodies of 16 protesters. But the prosecution charged two Berkut members with their killings, even though Saienko\u2019s brother and his lawyer officially handed to investigators the aforementioned video file in October 2014.\nHis brother identified the moment when Saienko was killed on Instytutska Street, at 9:08:34am in the video, which was initially filmed from the Hotel Ukraina by Radio Svoboda and then synchronized and time-stamped:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IQkB0jZ39k\nThis video also shows the moment when Bohdan Solchanyk was killed at 9:08:16am, less than 20 seconds before Saienko in the same area, reportedly with a 7.62mm bullet. His apparent position, the blood on the right side of the neck, and louder and different sounds of several shots in rapid succession, compared to the AKMS shots fired by Berkut at the same time, indicate that Solchanyk was most likely shot dead from the Hotel Ukraina. At that time, the Berkut policemen were in front and somewhat to the left from Solchanyk and the other protesters; and a specific shot, which was presented in the video synchronization, made by his acquaintance, as the evidence of his killing by Berkut, was from a 12mm caliber Fort pump rifle.\nIn the same video, Ihor Zastavnyi is seen in a yellow helmet falling nearby several seconds after Solchanyk was killed. Zastavnyi said in various interviews that he fell to the ground after he was wounded there third time and his leg was severed. He stated that the prosecution informed him earlier this year that they lost a bullet extracted from his body: http://hromadskeradio.org/\u2026/slidchi-prokuraturi-zagubili-ku\u2026.\nThe analysis of the content of the same video and photo compilation indicates that Maksym Shymko was killed in the same area at about the same time, since he was last seen alive at 9:07:15am and by 9:07:46am he was shot and his stick was on the pavement near a wooden shield. Although the exact moment of his killing is missing from the video, his mother in her court testimony confirmed this location and indicated that the investigation found that he was killed from the same weapon as 9 other protesters, including Saienko.\nAnother bullet, which was stuck in Shymko\u2019s neck and which was publicized as evidence of government snipers, was not of 7.62mm caliber. His mother supported the prosecution charges that Berkut killed her son, but she stated that he was wounded in his neck with an exit wound below his shoulder blade. This indicates a sharp angle, which is consistent with the similar location of the Saienko\u2019s killer and an announcement from the Maidan stage at 9:10am about two or three \u201csnipers\u201d on the pendulum floor of the Hotel Ukraina. This announcement relayed reports of Maidan protesters concerning the killings of Shymko, Solchanyk, and Saienko, since they were a part of the first group of the protesters that came under deadly live ammunition fire. One of the charged Berkut members indicated during the trial that the investigative file contained testimonies of protesters about Maidan \u201csnipers\u201d at the Hotel Ukraina.\nThe list of the 39 protesters whose killing the prosecution attributed to Berkut was only released nearly one and a half years after the massacre. The killings of the other 10 protesters were simply omitted from the charges, even though 8 of them were shot dead at the same time and place as these 39 protesters. The special Council of Europe investigative panel reported that the Ukrainian investigation had evidence that ten protesters were killed by \u201csnipers\u201d from top of the buildings, but that investigation did not found any evidence that these were snipers from the Security Service of Ukraine Alf unit and other government units. [See here for an April 2015 news report. And here is the 188-page report of the panel, dated March 31, 2015.]\nThe omitted list confirmed information that the investigation omitted the killings of Oleh Unshnevych, Evhen Kotliar, Ustym Holodniuk and Oleksander Kharchenko because of clear evidence they were killed from the Maidan-controlled locations, such as Hotel Ukraina. In addition, the prosecution charges also omitted the killings of Vasyl Aksenyn, Vladyslav Zubenko, Volodymyr Chaplynsky and Volodymyr Melnychuk. My study presents various evidence that these protesters were also killed from the Maidan-controlled buildings, mostly Hotel Ukraina, starting from about 9:18am till almost 5pm. For instance, the much publicized Zelenyi Front video shows at 10:26am (32:13) that Chaplynsky was shot dead when he was running away from the massacre area: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdFHNE8WxOA. A Spline TV recording of its live broadcast, which is now removed from a list of its videos on the Internet, shows sparks flying from the Hotel Ukraina when a loud gunshot killed this protestor. Zubenko was killed in the same area at 9:49am, reportedly with a 5.45 caliber bullet.\nThe prosecution charges confirmed earlier reports that the investigation did not find specific evidence linking specific Berkut members to specific killed protesters. But these charges also revealed that the prosecution did not specify the exact time of killing of specific protesters and policemen, although such information can be determined from live broadcasts and synchronized and time-stamped videos, and it is presented in my study. These charges deliberately omitted various evidence, including videos, interviews, and public admissions, of Maidan \u201cshooters\u201d of the police.\nThe prosecution case for the first time de facto admitted an absence of a specific top government order to massacre the protesters on February 20. The prosecution stated that after an unspecified escalation of the conflict around 8am on February 20, the Berkut commander himself ordered the commander of the special Berkut company to disperse the protesters on the Maidan and block them from advancing to the parliament and presidential administration. It would have been irrational for the Berkut commander to issue such an order on his own and use only about two dozen members of a special company. The prosecution itself stated that then-president Viktor Yanukovych and the Minister of Internal Affairs ordered to disperse the protesters on the Maidan by force close to midnight on February 18. The attempt to storm the parliament on February 18 was presented by the prosecution as a peaceful rally, and subsequent clashes, the killing of some 30 policemen and protesters and a computer technician at the office of the Party of Regions were omitted.\nThe charges stated that following the Berkut commander order, the Berkut special company commander ordered the use of AKMs and Fort 500 pump guns with lead pellets, although no evidence was presented as to why this elite police unit would start using hunting ammunition. Contrary to the prosecutor charges account, various evidence cited in my study and later confirmed by BBC and other sources show that the Maidan protesters forced Berkut and Internal troop units, which did not have then live ammunition, to flee from the Maidan around 8:50am by killing and wounding about 20 of them, specifically with pellets and 7.62mm bullets, from the Music Conservatory and Trade Union buildings. The Berkut special company was first filmed being deployed and shooting with live ammunition on Instytutska street at 9:05am and then briefly moving to Zhovtnevyi Palace to allow remaining policemen there to flee.\nThe prosecution claimed that around 9am on February 20, 2014, unidentified persons of unknown allegiance started to shoot at the police and that they killed from an unknown weapon one member of the Berkut special company and wounded another. In response to this, the accused from the Berkut company and unidentified members of this company and other law enforcement units became hostile to protesters and started to shoot in the direction of the unarmed protesters with AKMS and Fort 500 with lead pellets in order to kill them. This timeline is also deliberately misleading, because recordings of live broadcasts, time-stamped and synchronized videos, cited in my study, show that at least five protesters were killed starting at exactly 9:00 am before the member of the special Berkut company was shot dead with pellets at 9:16am: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYjEp1C4hzI.\nThe prosecution charged two Berkut members with being a part of an organized group that killed 39 protesters with 7.62mm caliber AKMS during the assault of the Maidan and from two barricades on Instytutska Street from 9am till 1pm. During the testimonies and cross-examination of relatives of six killed protesters, only one single direct witness of the killing of one of these protesters (Eduard Hrynevych) was identified. This witness now happens to serve in a paramilitary unit of the Right Sector, which was involved in the massacre. My study cited videos of protesters referring at 10:25am to the killing of Hrynevych by a shot to his head several meters from them and referring to \u201csnipers\u201d on the pendulum floor of the Hotel Ukraina: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yUingq7eyI. This and other videos show many protesters and journalists witnessing and recording shooting of these protesters.\nRemarkably, a recently posted video, which shows \u201csnipers\u201d on the top floors of the Hotel Ukraina shooting at the Maidan protesters was referred to during the trial as evidence of the killing of Ihor Kostenko by Berkut. This video shows Kostenko seconds before and after (0:59) when he was shot at 9:29am: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akVXLbkJsX0. At least seven other protesters were killed within less than three minutes in the same area.\nMy study presents various evidence, such as videos and eyewitness testimonies, indicating that these and almost all other 39 protesters were also killed from the Hotel Ukraina and other Maidan-controlled buildings, and that the Right Sector, Svoboda, and Fatherland parties were involved in the \u201csnipers\u201d massacre. There are a few protesters whose location and time of the killing are still publicly undisclosed.\nA Google News search shows that none of these revelations during the Maidan Massacre trial have been reported by the media in Ukraine and the West. In contrast, there were numerous reports in the Ukrainian media about each of these protesters. Similarly, The New York Times, The Telegraph, and Associated Press previously published articles, respectively, about the killings of Solchanyk and Saienko and wounding of Zastavnyi. The \u2018Maidan\u2019 documentary film by Sergei Loznitsa, shown at the Cannes Film Festival this year, included the above-mentioned excerpts of the Radio Svoboda live Internet video stream showing the killings of Shymko, Solchanyk, and Saienko. In media reports and in this documentary, these and other killings of the protesters were typically directly or indirectly attributed to Berkut or government snipers.\nIn contrast, the Maidan stage announcements concerning the \u201csnipers\u201d at the Hotel Ukraina and other various evidence of the concealed Maidan shooters there and in other Maidan-controlled areas were omitted. The failure to report the striking new revelations from the ongoing trial suggests that the misrepresentation in Ukraine and the West of the Maidan mass killing is driven not by lack of information but by politics.\n[1] The two Berkut policemen currently on trial were arrested last year. Three other policemen were arrested on similar charges this year but their trial has not yet started.\n[2] See: The \u201cSnipers\u2019 Massacre\u201d on the Maidan in Ukraine (revised and updated version), by Ivan Katchanovski, Ph.D, published on Academia.edu, Feb. 20, 2015.\nInvestigation of Snipers Massacre on Maidan Square: Interview in Danish newspaper with Ivan Katchanovski, June 19, 2015\nBBC reports on neo-Nazi rally in Kyiv on July 21. Its reporter fails to mention their role in the Sniper Massacre in Kyiv on February 20, 2014 and the Odessa Massacre (May 2, 2014). BBC News, ten minute video, July 22, 2015\nIf that's all you can say about the evidence I presented (it wasn't about just tanks but Russian soldiers as well), then from now on I will assume you agree that Russia did invade Ukraine. You can't have your cookie and eat it too. You either agree with the evidence or argue against it.\nThe NATO exercises in Ukraine is not a problem at all. Ukraine invited those NATO troops there. They didn't invite the Russian troops. It's quite natural for a country invaded by a more powerful one to seek closer ties with other powerful countries, hoping to get some protection from them.\nThe claims by Russian officials that those exercises can harm the peace process is irrelevant for several reasons:\n1. We've already established the the Russian government are liars.\n2. The exercises are being held on the other side of the country.\n3. The separatists never honored those cease-fires anyway. Debaltseve was taken a few days after the latest cease-fire went into effect, not to mention the daily shelling of Ukrainian positions that continue even today.\nOn the topic of Maidan snipers I will comment later, as I will need to do some research first.\nYes, its hotting up again.\nSome people itching to overturn the Minsk agreement & resume the killing.\nCan see where you're coming from.\nAnd what about the NATO troops in Ukraine...?\nYou seem to be under the fallacy that Kiev represents the Ukrainian people.\nI suppose Ukraine always was going to be the big one so hardly suprising you're wading in here.\nOnly 10% or so of Ukraine is now allied to Russia.\nThe other 90%, in the same sort of fragile way, as the UK and US is, allied to the EU and NATO.\nI would say NATO and the EU think they've not done badly.\nBut I guess only total control will do for some.\nThe NATO exercises in Ukraine are not a problem at all.\nErr, WRONG. I just can't be fussed to follow your links. I have not 'admitted' Russia invaded Ukraine, just given a few reasons I wouldn't blame them if they did.\nRe 'dropping bombs on civilians', I didn't say that either; I said 'bombarding', which is generally done with rockets, tank and artillery fire (as they are afraid to overfly, as they get shot down).\nSomewhere I believe you said there was no evidence of Western trolls (I can't find it now, so maybe you have wisely removed it).

A ceasefire has been in place since February 12, 2015, but violations of it are frequent and the underlying political and economic issues that sparked the war are unresolved. The parties do not talk. Governments of the NATO counties are pushing a 'blame Russia' narrative, and three of them\u2014the U.S., UK and Canada\u2014have landed soldiers in western Ukraine in order to provide training to the Ukrainian army.\nRoger Annis, a writer and Vancouver resident, participated in a five-day media tour to Donetsk city and region in mid-April 2015.

As outsider put it, \"I just can't be fussed to follow your links.\". My original post with the evidence only had 6 or so links. Is it that hard to check them out? On the other hand, the two of you threw dozens of links at me, many of them completely unrelated to the point I am arguing. Sorry but I don't have the time to debunk every single one of them. I would only consider spending my time doing that if one of the following happens:\n1. You agree that Russia did in fact invade Ukraine.\n2. You counter the evidence I presented.\nAs neither has happened so far, how are you guys different from 9/11 debunkers who refuse to discuss the evidence of controlled demolition?\n1. That evidence, even if true, doesn't prove any such thing\n2. You support the NATO coup and the destabilisation by the banksters of a sovereign country\nMy evidence proves that Russia invaded Ukraine. I don't support banksters, but you on the other hand do support a war of aggression. Your unwillingness to address my evidence is very telling.\nyou on the other hand do support a war of aggression\nSo you are saying that it is Russia who is the aggressor! That is the most laughable comment I have heard on this site and there have been many. Is Russia surrounding NATO countries with missiles and threatening nuclear first strike? Is Russia maintaining sanctions against NATO countries? Did Russia murder unarmed civilians in Ukraine and oust a democratically elected government in Ukraine? NO! NATO countries did those things. If Russia invaded Ukraine they would have every legitimate and moral right to do so in defence of Ukraine's people from western aggression but Putin is too smart to play into the hands of the Bankers. He showed what Russia is capable of when Georgia (under NATO's control) murdered hundreds of defenceless Russian civilians in South Ossetia. He knows when to use force but it is not now. The Ukrainians will eventually turn on their tormentors and he knows it is a waiting game.\nI see you are in the last chance saloon. I'll say cheerio now before you go. Ta ta.\nI'm afraid it doesn't.\nAnd no, I don't.\nI'd prefer to see Ukraine as genuinely independent, fascist and debt free country, with no engineered coups designed to kick the Russians out of the Black Sea, and allowed to pursue its own course.\nOnly when you have the entire mainstream media (ooooh what a prize for Mr Goebbels) by the short and curlies can such tripe as painting Russia as the aggressor in Ukraine be considered credible. And then only by morons and warmongers.\nJesuits? ie crooked Catholics?\nMaybe not, but the rest of this, excellent!\nAmerican Mercenaries in Ukraine and who where those Snipers?\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjfHB1aIWsQ\nAmerican Mercenaries in Ukraine and who where those Snipers ?\nThere is no doubt there were mercenaries at Maidan, the former head of Ukraine's security service, Aleksandr Yakimenko, says.\nThe violence on Maidan which caused almost 100 deaths was organized by some opposition leaders who poured Western money and resources into the coup, Yakimenko told the Russia-1 TV channel. Now Major General Alexander Yakimenko is in the top five of Maidan's hit list. He made it to that list while he was still in his office in Kiev.\nSo, one of the primary suspects of a crime is accusing some 3rd party. That sounds like pretty reliable information, let's put it on RT!\nIn reality, there is zero evidence of foreign snipers being involved in Maidan massacre. On the other hand, there is plenty of evidence of Berkut (Ukrainean riot police) firing at protestors, including with sniper rifles:\nThere were indeed some unidentified snipers involved, but those weren't identified for a simple reason they weren't caught or filmed on a camera. Those could very well be Berkut as well or another police or military unit. In any case, most of protester deaths were traced to Berkut rather than those unidentified snipers.\nIn any case, most of protester deaths were traced to Berkut rather than those unidentified snipers.\nTraced by whom? Who can be trusted to be an independent, honest witness?\nThis statement amounts to spreading FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt). You question the conclusion of investigators just because you don't like it, without presenting any evidence showing that conclusion to be wrong.\nAnd no, Ukrainian authorities are not trying to blame all protester deaths on Berkut.

Kostenko perished first - from a shot from the side of Institutskaya St. where a Berkut unit was stationed. Holodnyuk on the other hand, according to investigators was shot dead from the side of hotel Ukraine. His case is part of a separate trial, which doesn't have any defendants yet.\nIt's also wrong to claim hotel Ukraine was under protesters' control. They took control of it at a later point.\nIn any case, I showed you video evidence of Berkut shooting at protesters. You can't show me any material evidence confirming the involvement of foreign forces.\nSo the answer is the new Kiev authorities. I'm not spreading fear. Merely pointing out the obvious, that these authorities are not impartial, they have a clear political agenda.\nI won't say the you tube footage is completely meaningless but given all 'sides' within the conflict use social media for propaganda purposes, I don't accept this proves anything. Where is the context and explanation of what these images are supposed to show? An explanation of who shot this footage? A stirring soundtrack tells me nothing\nThere's some famous BBC news footage of the miners strike (Battle of Orgreave) that showed these violent miners attacking the police and then the police charging back at the miners. Why it is famous is that the BBC accidentally on purpose showed the footage in the wrong order. The reality is the police attacked the miners first in a vicious unprovoked attack and then some of the miners later retaliated.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blogs \u00bb Charles Gaba's blog \u00bb In which I apologize to Mr. Conover: Yes, if you count fractions of people as human beings, he was absolutely correct.\nIn which I apologize to Mr. Conover: Yes, if you count fractions of people as human beings, he was absolutely correct.\nChris Conover has responded to both of my items from yesterday. Let's take a look:\nLet\u2019s start with this howler: \u201cActually, the Obama administration never said that they\u2019d reach 7 million paying customers by March 31st.\u201dSeriously? Has Mr. Gaba really not read the September 5, 2013 memo from Marilyn Tavenner (chief of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) titled Projected Monthly Enrollment Targets for Health Insurance Marketplaces in 2014? Table 2b of that memo clearly shows an enrollment target of 7,066,000 for March 31, 2014. End of story.\nYes, I'm well aware of that memo, but that's not exactly the end of the story. Not only do I agree that this memo indeed had a 7M target by 3/31, but I'll go Conover one further: It was the same memo in which the CMS Dept. gave rather outlandish exchange QHP \"goals\" for all 50 states which made little sense--such as thinking that Kentucky (which only had 249,000 uninsured eligible for QHP assistance last fall) would actually enroll more people in private plans (220,000) than New York would (218,000), when NY had 995,000 uninsured...4x as many...eligible for QHP assistance.\nThis was the same memo which somehow claimed that both Utah and Vermont, which have wildly different demographics, would have not only identical total QHP enrollments, but identical incremental enrollments for every single month along the way...almost certainly due to someone copying & pasting one state's data into the others on the spreadsheet. In addition, this particular CMS memo admits to taking the 7M calendar year 2014 figure issued by the CBO back in May and attempting to shoehorn the state-level projections in so that they would add up to 7 million (I have no clue why they chose to slap on an extra 66,000).\nIn short, in my opinion this particular CMS memo was kind of poorly put together all around, which I've noted several times in the past...and which might explain why--unless I'm mistaken--it was never intended for public release (it was specifically addressed to Sec. Sebelius and actually stated \"This memo is for your information only; you do not need to take any action on this.\"). I'm sure there are hundreds of internal memos flitting about within the various departments of the Federal Government which included different projections, estimates, goals and so on, which change from time to time. Perhaps there were 3 other versions of this memo a week or two earlier or later which circulated internally but never made it out to the public as varying factors were taken into account and discussed. I presume that only the ones which have been vetted are issued as press releases to the public. In this case, the GOP House Ways & Means Committee got hold of this memo and published it, and that's where the state-level \"goals\" by March 31st came from.\nSo, why did \"7 million by March 31st\" sink into the public consciousness as an end-all, be-all goal or target? Well, mainly because Kathleen Sebelius took the CBO's projection of 7 million in calendar year 2014 and (foolishly, in my opinion) gave the following interview with this exchange:\nReporter: \"What does success look like?\"\nSebelius: \"Well, I think success looks like at least 7 million people having signed up by the end of March, 2014\"\nIf you asked me, \"Would winning $100 million in the lottery make you rich?\", I'd answer \"Yes, absolutely.\" If you asked me, \"Would winning $10 million in the lottery make you rich?\", I'd answer yes as well. She didn't say that not hitting 7 million by 3/31 would be a failure; she said that hitting 7 million would sure as hell be considered a success.\nNow, Sebelius did make a serious wording flub here, because she certainly gave the impression that anything short of 7 million would be disappointing. However, she also referred to 7 million \"signing up\" which (as anyone who's got into an earlier debate about this knows) is not the same thing as \"enrolling\", which in turn is not the same thing as a paid enrollment. Christ, you couldn't throw a rock without hitting some Republican yammering about \"signing up isn't actually enrolling!!\" every 30 seconds.\nYou can't have it both ways, guys: Either Sebelius' \"7 million signing up\" was an intractible vow of the 3/31 enrollment number (in which case you're admitting that the two are equivalent), or one does not equal the other, in which case you have to admit that she only stated that 7 million signups was the benchmark for \"success\" (even though, again, she never said that a smaller number wouldn't also equal success).\nIs this petty semantic nit-picking? Absolutely...which is exactly what Conover is doing in the first place.\nI'll come back to this word parsing in a little bit. However, I first have to admit an interpretation error on my part:\nI correctly noted that the May 2013 CBO report--the one from whence came the \"magic\" 7 million figure which ended up taking on some sort of mystical quality, even though, as Ezra Klein noted last fall, there's no special power in that particular total number--made no mention of the 3/31 date; it was referring to the entire 2014 calendar year.\nHowever, I incorrectly forgot about an important footnote at the bottom which the Washington Post Fact Checker's Glenn Kessler noted back in April...and which I've actually already written about myself:\nFootnote b of the very CBO table Mr. Gaba links to on his website to make his case clearly states: \u201c Figures reflect average enrollment over the course of a year.\u201d\nWhen I wrote about this back on April 4th, I did a partial back-of-the-envelope analysis of what this might mean. However, now that we have full enrollment data through 4/19, and partial data since then, and we have Mr. Conover's \"2-5% attrition\" claim which I've already conceded doesn't seem unreasonable, I'm able to plug the numbers into an actual spreadsheet and come up with the following:\nSo, credit is due to Mr. Conover: If you specifically use the average of the monthly paid QHPs over the full 12-month period of 2014, and if you use this as the specific \"expectation\" number that you're defining as the only one which counts as a valid one to compare against, and if the 1st month payment rate is 90%, and if the monthly attrition rate is 3.5% each and every month as Mr. Conover claims, then Mazel Tov! A cookie for Mr. Conover! Hell, my chart above even goes beyond Conover's math at the low end (he noted that the \"rosiest\" scenario still comes up 4% short).\nSo, does this mean I'm stating that only 5.4 - 5.7 million people enrolled? Of course not. The 8.6 million (of which about 7.6 million have/will have paid their first month's premium) who have enrolled to date, and the estimated 900K - 1.6 million more who will do so over the next 4 months or so are not fractions of people.\nThis is the thing that ACA opponents either can't get through their heads or aren't willing to admit. If someone enrolls in March, has dependable healthcare coverage for, say, 3-4 months and then moves on to other coverage by getting a job with benefits, aging into Medicare, marrying someone with coverage or so on, that still counts as them having the peace of mind of health insurance. Perhaps they came down with an illness or were injured during those few months; perhaps they didn't. That's the definition of insurance--having coverage in case you need it. These people were covered in the event something unpleasant and expensive happened to them during a certain period of time, and then moved on to something else. This is a good thing.\nNow, the CBO does need to know what the monthly average number is for strict budgetary reasons: They need to have an idea of how much the Federal government will be doling out in tax subsidies, so yes, that's important from their perspective. From their perspective, \"1/12th of a person\" can indeed \"exist\" on a spreadsheet.\nHowever, from a human perspective, where 1/12th of a person doesn't exist (any more than, say, 3/5ths of a person existed anywhere except the Article I, Section 2 of the original Constitution prior to the 14th Amendment), this is silly and insulting. Someone enrolling in June because they just lost their job, or a woman who enrolled their newborn baby on April 5th because they didn't happen to give birth a week earlier (and therefore \"missed\" the original, arbitrary 3/31 cut-off) still counts as a person who enrolled this year.\nNow, let's move on to Conover's error. In the next paragraph, he states:\nMr. Gaba seems desperate too change the goalposts, perhaps because his own numbers clearly show that as of March 31, paid enrollments on the Exchanges were only 6,372,147 (last row of Week 26 spreadsheet). This simply confirms what I stated in my post. Mr. Krugman was dead wrong to claim signups exceeded expectations. Why is Mr. Gaba disputing this simple and obvious point?\nFirst, let me applaud Conover for actually digging through the earlier worksheets in my spreadsheet; he seems to be one of the very few people who actually bother doing so (most seem content with either the Graph or the Blog sections of the site, but the Spreadsheet is the most important feature, since that's where everything else comes together).\nHowever, using Conover (and Cannon's) standard, you could have theoretically had 30 million people enroll at 11:55pm on March 31st, and even if 100% of them put a check in the mail the moment they completed the process, not one of them would \"count\" as having \"enrolled by 3/31\" since their payment checks (or even their automatic credit card transfer) wouldn't have cleared the bank until after midnight. By that logic, Conover/Cannon would claim that not a single person enrolled in an exchange QHP by the administration's deadline, and therefore none of them count.\nMr. Conover claiming that I'm the one \"moving the goalposts\" is the height of hypocrisy. He seems to think that Krugman's \"exceeded expectations\" refers only to the unofficial 7 million estimate/projection figure, only as of 3/31/14, and only those whose payments had fully cleared the bank.\nNow, perhaps that's what Krugman meant, but the \"expectations\" that I'm referring to can be found in Jonathan Cohn's fantastic roundup of the endless litany of doom & gloom predictions by everyone from John Boehner and Orrin Hatch to the Daily Caller and FOX News, in which they were mocking the idea that HC.gov would be able to enroll 6 million, 5 million, 4 million, or even enough people to fill a football stadium during the early, \"broken website\" days of October and November.\nOh, one other thing. Conover then says:\nFirst, 10 million is not paid enrollments: it\u2019s total enrollments. In his eagerness to prove me wrong, he\u2019s forgotten to deduct the 10% (at minimum) unpaid enrollments. So if he truly believes there will be 10 million cumulative enrollments, the correct figure for paid enrollments is only 9.1 million.\nOn this, Conover is flat-out wrong. I clearly stated the monthly totals as follows (emphasis added to the 2nd line)...note that he even overstates the \"paid enrollment\" number by 100K (90% of 10 million is 9 million, not 9.1 million):\n10.0 Million enrolled\n9.00 Million paid 1st month's premium (90%)\n8.69 Million paid 2nd month (96.5% of 9M)\n8.38 Million paid 3rd month (96.5% of 8.69M)\n8.09 Million paid 4th month (etc...)\n7.80 Million paid 5th month\nHowever, this is just a quibble. The reality is, the end result of all of this he said/she said gobbldygook is that we now have a wide range of exchange QHP numbers to \"choose\" from, ranging from a low of around 5.4 million to a high of around 9 million, all depending on your perspective and what political point you're trying to score.\nNONE of this back-and-forth silliness changes the fact that by the end of the year, at least 7.6 million, and likely another million or so, will have enrolled and paid their first month's premiums on one of the federal or state exchanges...plus another 7-10 million or so who will be newly enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, plus a few million more 19-25 year olds who will be covered by their parents' policies due to the law, plus millions more who can no longer be dropped or denied coverage due to a pre-existing condition or be forced into bankruptcy due to endless medical expenses.\nMr. Conover may or may not update his post yet again, depending on how long he wants to keep this pissing match going. If not, fine. If so, unless he says something truly insane, I'll let it go here. I already spent half my birthday writing my original rebuttals (I turned 44 on Saturday); there's no purpose to be served by lobbing this level of minutiae back & forth endlessly other than to muddy the waters so badly that the average Joe ends up hopelessly confused. There's been enough of that by the likes of FOX News and the Koch Brothers already.\nStill, congratulations again to Mr. Conover on the \"2014 monthly average\" issue; you win on that point. Well played.\nOh, one more thing: Mr. Conover included a typo from my posts to which he added a [sic] to indicate that the typo was my error, not his. Fair enough (the typo has since been corrected). However, this does raise one more point: Mr. Conover is being paid by Forbes and presumably has a professional copyeditor on the payroll as well. I'm not on anyone's payroll to run this site, and while there is a copyeditor who generously donates her assistance to me, she can only do so sporadically. So, yes, I may have the occasional typo or grammatical error from time to time.",

        "title": "AdamJT13: Projecting the 2009 Compensatory NFL Draft Picks",
        "raw_content": "For the eighth consecutive year and ninth overall, I\u2019ve attempted to project all of the compensatory draft picks that the NFL will award. In my past seven projections, I\u2019ve averaged 23.9 out of 32 exactly correct (going to the correct team in the correct round) and have been off by only one round on an average of 4.1 more. Last year, I got 25 correct and was off by one round on four more. With this year\u2019s projections, I\u2019m hoping to get a combined score of at least 30, although it\u2019s possible that more than the usual number of them could be off by one round because so many projected compensatory picks fell near the cutoff points between rounds.\nAs the NFL explains, compensatory picks are awarded to teams that lose more or better compensatory free agents than they acquire. The number of picks a team can receive equals the net loss of compensatory free agents, up to a maximum of four. Compensatory free agents are determined by a secret formula based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. Not every free agent lost or signed is covered by the formula.\nAlthough the formula has never been revealed, by studying the compensatory picks that have been awarded since they began in 1994, I\u2019ve determined that the primary factor in the value of the picks awarded is the average annual value of the contract the player signed with his new team, with an adjustment for playing time and a smaller adjustment for postseason honors. It should be noted that the contract values used in the equation seemingly do not include things such as workout bonuses, incentives and conditional bonuses. (Also, keep in mind that the contract figures reported in the media often are incorrect.) And the playing time used in the equation seemingly is the percentage of offensive or defensive snaps played.\nA simple method of determining for which qualifying free agents a team will be compensated is this \u2013 for every player acquired, cancel out a lost player of similar value. For example, consider a team that loses one qualifying player whose value would bring a third-round comp pick and another qualifying player whose value would bring a sixth-round comp pick but signs a qualifying player whose value would be in the range of a third-round pick. That team would receive a sixth-round comp pick because the signed player would cancel out the loss of the higher-valued player. If the signed player\u2019s value was equal to a fourth-round pick or lower, however, the team would receive a third-round comp pick, because the signed player would cancel out the loss of the lower-valued player.\nIt is possible for a team to get a compensatory pick even if it doesn\u2019t suffer a net loss of qualifying free agents. That type of comp pick comes at the end of the seventh round, after the normal comp picks and before the non-compensatory picks that are added if fewer than 32 comp picks are awarded. There have been 13 of these \u201cnet value\u201d type of comp picks awarded, and in each case, the combined value of the free agents lost was significantly higher than the combined value of the free agents added. In all 13 cases, those teams lost the same number of qualifying free agents as they signed. No team has been awarded a comp pick after signing more qualifying free agents than it lost, no matter how significant the difference in combined value. This year, I\u2019m projecting that Detroit and Arizona will receive a net-value comp picks. Detroit lost three qualifying players (Damien Woody, Boss Bailey and T.J. Duckett) and signed three qualifying players (Brian Kelly, Michael Gaines and Chuck Darby). Arizona lost three (Calvin Pace, Bryant Johnson and Keydrick Vincent) and signed three (Travis LaBoy, Clark Haggans and Bryan Robinson). The combined values of the players Detroit and Arizona lost each exceeded 50 percent more than the combined values of the players they signed. That would be the smallest difference in value of any net-value comp in the past six years, but I\u2019m projecting that it will be enough for both teams.\nFor the second consecutive year, I\u2019ve used a mathematical formula to weight the three factors that determine a player\u2019s value in the comp equation (his contract, his playing time and his postseason awards). Using this formula, I\u2019ve been able to reconstruct almost precisely the order of the comp picks that were awarded in 2006, 2007 and 2008. In two of those years, the only difference between the reconstructed order and the actual order was that a very small difference in values had the order of two consecutive picks switched. I don\u2019t know if I have the factors weighted correctly, but given that my projected order last year (not the reconstructed order after the actual comps were awarded) matched the exact order of the comp picks in many cases \u2013 including one instance of 11 straight, out of the projected picks I had correct \u2013 I think I\u2019m probably pretty close.\nAs always, please note that my comp pick formula is merely an attempt to project the results of the actual (secret) formula. I don\u2019t pretend to know the actual formula. But I think previous results indicate that the formula I use is a pretty good simulation.\nIn order to qualify for the comp equation, a player must have been a true Unrestricted Free Agent whose contract had expired or was voided after the previous season (i.e., he cannot have been released by his old team); he must sign during the UFA signing period (which ended July 22 last year); if he signs after June 1, he must have been tendered a June 1 qualifying offer by his old team; his compensatory value must be above a specific minimum amount; and he cannot have been permanently released by his new team before a certain point in the season (which seems to be after Week 10) or, possibly, before getting a certain amount of playing time, unless he was claimed off waivers by another team.\nThe most difficult part about projecting the comp picks is determining all of the cutoff points \u2013 the minimum value needed to qualify and the value ranges for the comp picks in each round of the draft. The comp picks awarded in previous years suggest that the cutoff points increase each year by a small percentage \u2013 approximately the same percentage by which the leaguewide salary cap increases. From 2007 to 2008, the cap went up 6.96 percent, so I used a 7 percent increase when estimating the cutoff points for this year\u2019s comp picks.\nLast year, the lowest-paid player who is known to have qualified for the NFL\u2019s comp equation was Michael Myers, who signed for $825,000 per season and saw significant playing time. The highest-paid player who is known to have not qualified was Mike Doss, who signed for $900,000 per season by saw very little playing time except on special teams. The non-qualifying player with the highest value using the compensatory formula was Chris Liwienski, who signed for $740,000 per season and played almost 90 percent of his team\u2019s offensive snaps. This year, only one player was \u201con the bubble\u201d for qualifying \u2013 Tony Richardson, who left the Vikings and signed with the Jets for $860,000 per season. However, regardless of whether Richardson qualifies, the Vikings and the Jets each signed more qualifying players than they lost, which means Richardson doesn\u2019t affect the comp picks at all.\nI\u2019m fairly confident that the players I consider a little \u201cabove the bubble\u201d this year (Terry Cousin, Keydrick Vincent and Danny Clark) will qualify for the equation, and that the players I consider slightly \u201cbelow the bubble\u201d (Alex Stepanovich and Aaron Glenn), will not qualify. The lowest-valued player \u201cabove the bubble,\u201d Danny Clark, has a value in the formula that is more than 20 percent higher than that of last year\u2019s lowest-valued qualifying player. And the highest-valued player \u201cbelow the bubble,\u201d Alex Stepanovich, has a value that is less than that of the lowest-valued qualifying player last year (Michael Myers) and less than 1 percent more than the highest-valued non-qualifying player last year (Chris Liwienski). If I\u2019m wrong about any of those players, it will represent by far the largest or smallest increase in the minimum value needed to qualify that the NFL has used since comp picks were first awarded.\nThere were two unusual cases this year, one involving Keary Colbert and the other involving Marques Douglas, and they each might or might not count in the comp picks equation.\nColbert was a UFA for Carolina who signed with Denver, was traded to Seattle on Sept. 17, then was cut by the Seahawks on Nov. 12. The only clue about how the NFL handles a player like this in the compensatory formula is the case of Qadry Ismail in 1998. He was a free agent for Minnesota in 1997, signed with Green Bay, then was traded to Miami during the preseason. He did not count in the equation for Minnesota or Green Bay. It\u2019s not known whether he counted for Miami, because the Dolphins didn\u2019t receive any comp picks in 1998, so the NFL never revealed which players counted as lost or signed for Miami. In Colbert\u2019s case, it doesn\u2019t matter whether he counts for Carolina and/or Denver, because neither team will receive a comp pick either way. They each signed more qualifying players than they lost, regardless of whether Colbert counts. It does matter for Seattle, though. If Colbert counts as a player added, the Seahawks would receive three comp picks. If he does not, the Seahawks would receive four. Because Colbert was a member of the Seahawks for only eight weeks, I am projecting that he will not count in the equation.\nDouglas was a UFA for San Francisco who signed with Tampa Bay, then was traded to Baltimore on Aug. 27 and played in every game for the Ravens. Whether he counts for Tampa Bay and/or Baltimore is irrelevant, because they each signed more qualifying players than they lost. However, it does matter if he counts for San Francisco. If he counts as a player lost by the 49ers, they will receive two comp picks. If not, they will get one comp pick. I am projecting that Douglas will count as a player lost by the 49ers.\nLast year, regardless of playing time or postseason honors, the third-round comp players had signed for at least $6.25 million per season, the fourth-round comp players had signed for $4.67 million to $5.225 million, the only fifth-round comp player had signed for $4.5 million, the sixth-round comp players had signed for $2.25 million to $3.75 million, and the seventh-round comp players had signed for $2.5 million or less per season. Note that there are huge gaps between some rounds, and that there is an overlap between the sixth and seventh rounds because of the adjustments for playing time. You\u2019ll find the contract values for each round of this year\u2019s projected picks in the list a few paragraphs below this one.\nAs I alluded to earlier, the NFL adds non-compensatory picks if fewer than 32 comp picks are awarded. The non-compensatory picks are given, in order, to the teams that would be drafting if there were an eighth round, until the maximum of 32 has been reached. If there are 28 true comps, for example, the NFL would give additional picks to the teams that would have the first four picks in the eighth round, if there were one. This year, I\u2019m projecting that 30 true comps will be awarded, including Detroit\u2019s and Arizona's comp picks for net-value losses, which I mentioned earlier. Therefore, I\u2019m projecting that Detroit and Kansas City will receive non-compensatory picks to fill out the maximum number of picks. If the NFL\u2019s equation results in more than three non-compensatory picks being added, the next six teams in line to receive one would be St. Louis, Cleveland, Seattle, Cincinnati, Jacksonville and Oakland, in that order.\nHere are the projected picks for 2009, along with the compensatory player, their average contract value, their games played, their games started and other notes (I\u2019ve also noted the nine picks that fall near a cutoff point and could end up in a different round) \u2013\nNew England (Asante Samuel, $9.3567 million per season, 15 GP/15 GS, Pro Bowl)\nPittsburgh (Alan Faneca, $7.8 million, 16/16, Pro Bowl)\nCincinnati (Justin Smith, $7 million, 16/16) \u2013 possibly a fourth-round pick\nChicago (Bernard Berrian, $6.9 million, 16/13) \u2013 possibly a third-round pick\nN.Y. Giants (Gibril Wilson, $6.5008 million, 16/15) \u2013 possibly a third-round pick\nSan Diego (Michael Turner, $5.75 million, 16/16, Pro Bowl) \u2013 possibly a third-round pick\nSan Diego (Drayton Florence, $5.9333 million, 15/8)\nTennessee (Antwan Odom, $5.9 million, 12/8)\nIndianapolis (Jake Scott, $4.8 million, 16/16) \u2013 possibly a fifth-round pick\nSan Francisco (Kwame Harris, $4.6667 million, 14/11)\nNew England (Donte Stallworth, $4.5393 million, 11/7)\nDallas (Jacques Reeves, $4 million, 16/16) \u2013 possibly a sixth-round pick\nTennessee (Travis LaBoy, $4.4 million, 13/12) \u2013 possibly a sixth-round pick\nTennessee (Randy Starks, $3.885 million, 16/4)\nNew England (Randall Gay, $3.3125 million, 14/13)\nDallas (Julius Jones, $2.9 million, 15/10)\nCincinnati (Landon Johnson, $2.733 million, 15/0) \u2013 possibly a seventh-round pick\nSan Francisco (Marques Douglas, $2.525 million, 16/0) \u2013 possibly a seventh-round pick\nTennessee (Ben Hartsock, $2.25 million, 11/11)\nWashington (Mark Brunell, $1.755 million, 2/0)\nSeattle (Chuck Darby, $1.467 million, 15/15)\nSeattle (Ellis Wyms, $1.4 million, 16/0)\nChicago (John Gilmore, $1.333 million, 16/10)\nSeattle (Kevin Bentley, $1.3 million, 16/7)\nChicago (Brendon Ayanbadejo, $1.223 million, 16/0, Pro Bowl)\nCincinnati (Bryan Robinson, $1.2125 million, 16/15)\nSeattle (D.J. Hackett, $1.2 million, 9/2)\nJacksonville (Terry Cousin, $1.115 million, 16/0)\nDetroit (net-value comp pick, lost three for $10.721 million, 38/22; signed three for $7.134 million, 42/31)\nArizona (net-value comp pick, lost three for $9.45 million, 46/42; signed three for $6.9625 million, 40/27)\nDetroit (non-compensatory pick)\nKansas City (non-compensatory pick)\nAs noted, the values of nine comp picks fell near the cutoff points between rounds, so it wouldn\u2019t surprise me if the comp pick for Smith is in the fourth round, if the comp picks for Berrian, Wilson and/or Turner are in the third round, if the comp pick for Scott is in the fifth round, if the comp picks for Reeves and LaBoy in the sixth round or if the comp picks for Johnson and/or Douglas are in the seventh round. (Actually, if Douglas\u2019 value falls in the seventh round, the 49ers\u2019 comp pick would be for Maurice Hicks and would fall between Chicago\u2019s pick for John Gilmore and Seattle's pick for Kevin Bentley.)\nOf course, other projected picks could be off by one round (or more) if the NFL happened to change the formula or increase the cutoff points by significantly more or less than I projected.\nHere are the qualifying players lost and signed (in order of value) for the 15 teams that I\u2019m projecting will receive comp picks \u2013\nLost: Calvin Pace, Bryant Johnson, Keydrick Vincent\nSigned: Travis LaBoy, Clark Haggans, Bryan Robinson\nLost: Bernard Berrian, John Gilmore, Brendon Ayanbadejo\nSigned: None\nLost: Justin Smith, Madieu Williams, Landon Johnson, Bryan Robinson\nSigned: Antwan Odom\nLost: Jacques Reeves, Julius Jones\nLost: Damien Woody, Boss Bailey, T.J. Duckett\nSigned: Brian Kelly, Michael Gaines, Chuck Darby\nLost: Jake Scott\nLost: Bobby McCray, Ernest Wilford, Sammy Knight, Terry Cousin\nSigned: Drayton Florence, Jerry Porter, Cleo Lemon\nLost: Gibril Wilson, Kawika Mitchell, Reggie Torbor\nSigned: Sammy Knight, Danny Clark\nLost: Asante Samuel, Donte Stallworth, Randall Gay\nLost: Alan Faneca, Clark Haggans\nSigned: Mewelde Moore\nLost: Michael Turner, Drayton Florence\nLost: Justin Smiley, Kwame Harris, Marques Douglas, Maurice Hicks\nSigned: Justin Smith, Bryant Johnson\nLost: Josh Brown, Niko Koutouvides, Chuck Darby, Ellis Wyms, Kevin Bentley, D.J. Hackett\nSigned: Julius Jones, T.J. Duckett\nLost: Jacob Bell, Antwan Odom, Travis LaBoy, Randy Starks, Ben Hartsock, Chris Brown\nSigned: Jake Scott\nLost: Mark Brunell\nAnyone else who was lost or signed by one of those teams last offseason is not projected to qualify for the equation, for one reason or another. Remember, players have to meet certain criteria in order to qualify for the equation (see the eighth paragraph of these projections for a summary of the criteria), so a lot of players will not count in the equation. Most of the time, it\u2019s either because the player had been released by his previous team and was not a true UFA, or because the player didn\u2019t sign for enough money to qualify.\nIf I\u2019m wrong about the values of certain players or whether some players will or will not qualify for the equation, that would affect the comp picks. Here\u2019s what would happen in certain instances \u2013\nIf Jacob Bell\u2019s value as a player lost for Tennessee falls into the range of a third-round comp pick, instead of a fourth-rounder as I projected, then the Titans would get a third-round comp pick for him instead of a fourth-round comp pick for Antwan Odom.\nIf Jake Scott\u2019s compensatory value is in the fifth round, then the Colts would get a fifth-round pick for him, and the Titans would get a comp pick for Jacob Bell (either in the third or fourth round) instead of a fifth-round comp pick for Travis LaBoy.\nIf Keary Colbert does qualify as a player signed for Seattle, the Seahawks would not get a seventh-round comp pick for Chuck Darby but would get the other three seventh-round comp picks, and St. Louis would get a non-compensatory pick to fill out the draft order.\nIf Marques Douglas does not qualify as a player lost by San Francisco, the 49ers would not get a sixth-round comp pick for him. And as I mentioned earlier, if Douglas\u2019 value falls in the range of a seventh-round comp pick, the 49ers\u2019 comp pick would not be for him, but for Maurice Hicks, and it would fall between Chicago\u2019s pick for John Gilmore and Seattle's pick for Kevin Bentley.\nIf Terry Cousin does not qualify as a player lost by Jacksonville, the Jaguars would not get a seventh-round comp pick for him, and St. Louis would get a non-compensatory pick to fill out the draft order.\nIf Keydrick Vincent does not qualify as a player lost by Arizona, the Cardinals would not get a third-round comp pick for Calvin Pace, and St. Louis would get a non-compensatory pick to fill out the draft order.\nIf Danny Clark does not qualify as a player signed by the Giants, they would get a sixth-round comp pick for Reggie Torbor, between New England\u2019s pick for Randall Gay and Dallas\u2019 pick for Julius Jones, and Kansas City would not get a non-compensatory pick at the end of the seventh round.\nIf Alex Stepanovich does qualify as a player lost by Cincinnati, the Bengals would receive a seventh-round comp pick for him, between Jacksonville\u2019s comp pick for Terry Cousin and Detroit\u2019s net-value comp pick, and Kansas City would not get a non-compensatory pick at the end of the seventh round.\nIf Aaron Glenn does qualify as a player lost by Jacksonville, the Jaguars would receive a seventh-round comp pick for him, after their comp pick for Terry Cousin (and after Cincinnati\u2019s comp pick for Stepanovich, if the Bengals get one) and before Detroit\u2019s net-value comp pick, and Kansas City would not get a non-compensatory pick at the end of the seventh round.\nUnder no circumstances will more than 32 picks be awarded, so if I have made numerous significant mistakes and there are more true comp picks than I have projected, one or more of the lowest-valued picks in my projection (starting with the non-compensatory picks and going backward) might not be awarded, if they\u2019re not one of the 32 highest-valued comp picks. Only the 32 highest-valued comp picks are awarded. So, for example, if Stepanovich and Glenn both qualify as players lost, there would be no non-compensatory picks at the end of the seventh round.\nThe NFL typically awards the compensatory picks on the second day of the Annual Meeting, which would be March 23 this year (the meeting will be March 22-25 in Dana Point, Calif.). After the comp picks are announced, I\u2019ll review what the NFL did and where my projections were incorrect (although I\u2019ve already presented some other possibilities).\nFeel free to post my projections on message boards, as long as you give proper credit. Because I cannot register for and regularly visit every single message board where my projections are posted by others, please encourage anyone who has questions for me to post them in the comments here at adamjt13.blogspot.com.\nLabels: NFL, NFL draft\nThanks for the post. It appears that you've got a pretty good grasp of the system, but I have wondered if you're using the right data in the calculation of Detroit Lion entitlements.\nI believe that Boss Bailey was not a credible free agent when he signed on with the Broncos. If my recollection is correct, he was released by the Lions and was signed as a street free agent. If that is true (and I think it is) I don't believe that he counts for comp calculations.\nAt the same time, J.T. O'Sullivan, who signed with the Niners and saw a bit of duty there, including a smattering of starts, appears to have been a legitimate (and counting) loss by the Lions.\nIt is possible that the Lions will come up with the same setup that you've projected, but I think that a re-checking of the data may be warranted.\nAgain, thanks for your good work. You're providing a very worthwhile service, and I appreciate it.\nCheck that last night's message. I believe that I was wrong about Boss Bailey's defection from the Lions..it appears to have been an unrestricted FA move after all, but it may be worth checking the San Francisco ledger to see if J.T. O'Sullivan might also have been a UFA..thus impacting the Lion picture in a positive way.\nJ.T. O'Sullivan's contract was too small ($645,000 per season for the purposes of comp picks). He will not qualify for the equation.\nI've got a question on how Cassel's trade to the Chiefs would affect compensatory picks next year for the Patriots?\nCassel was a UFA, franchised, traded to KC, and has not signed a new deal...do you not receive compensatory picks for players that are traded? (sounds like you should receive picks considering how some players were traded midseason and counts towards your formula)\nWould the Pats receive a third round pick next year (given Cassel is playing under a $14 million contract and the pats not signing enough contracts to equal $14 million)?\nGood post, i read it every year. I just have one question. How come the Raiders don't have any compensatory draft picks? They signed T Kwame Harris, C John Wade, SS Gibril Wilson, and WR Drew Carter. They also signed WR Javon Walker and DE Kalimba Edwards after they were released.\nThey lost WR Jerry Porter, QB Josh McCown, DE/LB Chris Clemons, and DE Tyler Brayton.\nHarris 3yr 14 mill (14/11)\nWade 2yr 1.5 mill (5/4)\nWilson 6yr 39 mill (16/16)\nCarter 1yr 2 mill (0/0)on IR\nsigned after relaesed\nWalker 6yr 55 mill (8/5)\nEdwards 2yr 5 mill (14/11)\nPorter 6yr 30 mill (10/5)\nMcCown 2yr 6.25 mill (3/0)\nClemons 5yr 19 mill (16/1)\nBrayton 2yr 4.5 mill (16/16)\nCodePoet said...\nDude, congrats on getting picked up by ESPN. All the bloggers there are referencing this page.\nmaestro876 said...\nMichael Turner is the MVP-runner up, and all he gets San Diego is a 4th-round pick? And Cincinatti gets a 3rd rounder for a guy like Justin Smith who's never been to the Pro Bowl?\nSeems unfair.\n@ Maestro876 :\nFairness the way you're describing isn't exactly the point. The NFL has to standardize the practice of offering compensation as methodically and mechanically as possible. Easiest way to do that? Money and snaps.\nThe Bears released Berrian primarily because the asking price was too high and he was an inconsistent receiver with a knack for dropping balls. That the Bears would gain a 4th round pick by letting him walk only made the original reasoning stronger, it didn't provide a separate motivation\nTo answer a few questions --\n-- Cassel will not count in next year's equation. Franchise players do not count. Plus, he was traded, not lost in free agency.\n-- The Raiders signed four qualifying players and lost four, so they did not have a net loss. And the combined values (using the formula) of the players they signed is greater than the combined values of the players they lost, so they won't get a \"net value\" comp pick.\n-- Regarding Michael Turner, the adjustment for \"postseason honors\" is very small.\nPriest Holmes had a season similar to Turner's after leaving Baltimore during the 2001 free agency period. In his first year with Kansas City, Holmes led the NFL in rushing yards and yards from scrimmage, went to the Pro Bowl and was named first-team All-Pro. But because his contract was so small, all Baltimore got for him was a sixth-round pick, which is right where his value fell in the formula.\nIn 2005, Kyle Vanden Bosch had 12.5 sacks and played in the Pro Bowl in his first season with Tennessee, but Arizona didn't even get a comp pick for him in 2006 because his contract was so small ($480,000 per season). Vanden Bosch didn't count in the equation at all, so he wasn't included as a player signed by Tennessee, either. That's why the Titans got a seventh-round comp pick for losing Shad Meier, who signed with New Orleans for $770,000 per season (but only $732,500 that counted in the formula) and played only 24 offensive snaps all season (plus one snap on special teams). Was it fair that Meier counted and Vanden Bosch didn't? Probably not. But that's what happened.\nAlso, Turner's value isn't helped by the fact that he played less than 60 percent of the offensive snaps for Atlanta.\ndrinkyourmilkshake said...\nThe Steelers also Signed Keyaron Fox, a Free Agent LB, from the Chiefs. He played mainly on Special Teams. I don't know if this would skew the 3rd round pick of the Steelers.\nKeyaron Fox signed for only $645,000 per season. His value in the formula is too small to qualify, so he won't affect anything.\nGood Post Adam, I've enjoyed looking over your work for the past three years on KFFL and here . . .One question, I know last year, Brian Kelly bought out the final year of his contract by paying money back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I notice that you have him as an UFA for your calculations. The Bucs made the choice to let him go, it seems like it's closer to being released than a player that has the option to void his contract. Just curious if you knew that Kelly bought out his contract when you did the calculations.\nBrian Kelly's contract with Tampa Bay had 2008 listed as a voidable season, and he voided it and became a true UFA (not an \"other free agent\" or \"street free agent,\" like players who get released). Players who became true UFAs because of voidable seasons normally are included in the equation like any other true UFA.\nThe one thing that might disqualify Kelly from the equation, though, is that his 2008 season originally wasn't a voidable season. His contract was renegotiated in July 2007 to make 2008 voidable if he achieved certain incentives, which he did.\nI know that players who become UFAs by renegotiating to eliminate contract years are not included in the equation, but I don't recall any cases of players who renegotiated to convert seasons to voidable years, so I don't know how the NFL handles that. I guess if Kelly doesn't qualify, we'll know why.\nIf Kelly is not included in the equation, instead of getting a net-value comp pick, Detroit would get a comp pick for Damien Woody right after Indianapolis' comp pick for Jake Scott, in either the fourth or fifth round.\nThanks for the info on Brian Kelly. With that, I'll add one other note, Damien Woody did the same thing as Kelly did . . .Woody's contract was renegotiated in August 2007 to make 2008 & 2009 voidable if he achieved certain incentives, which he did. You might want to double check your records, but I'm sure that's what Woody happened.\nOK, I did some double-checking on players who converted contract years into voidable years by renegotiating. There have, in fact, been players who have done this and still qualified for the equation, so I'm pretty certain that Brian Kelly, Damien Woody and Mark Brunell (who also did it) will qualify this year.\nIn March 2002, safety Shaun Williams signed a contract with the Giants through 2007, with an option for 2008. The 2006 and 2007 seasons were not voidable years. In March 2005, Williams renegotiated his contract. The 2007 and 2008 seasons were deleted, and the 2006 season was converted into a voidable year. When the 2006 season was voided, he became a true UFA at the start of the 2006 free agency period. He signed a one-year contract with Carolina in March 2006 and was included by the NFL in the compensatory picks equation in 2007.\nThat same year, Andre Carter also was included, even though his 2006 season was converted to a voidable year during a renegotiation.\nI've been a fan of your work for years from both the Ranch and the Zone and now with your blog and Rotoworld posts. Seems like the mainstream media like ESPN has caught on to you also. Kudos to that.\nJust have one quick question and it's not really related to the comp picks but more about the salary cap.\nI have heard many people talk about some change regarding the salary of drafted players counting against the cap regardless of whether they make the team or not.\nIs this something different, or is it just any bonus amount that will stick to the cap, regardless of whether they are cut. If the entire salary counts towards the cap, what is the purpose of the rule of 51? Or does it get thrown out because of the uncertain CBA?\nI am thinking this is nothing new, but for some reason the media has reported it as being a reason that teams might try trading up to reduce their number of picks.\nFla Cowpoke\nCowpoke,\nI'm not positive what it is you're hearing, but perhaps it's the fact that all dead money accelerates into this season when a player is released. So if a late-round pick doesn't make the team, his entire bonus will count against this year's cap, instead of just this year's prorated amount (in a normal season, the rest would accelerate into next season's cap).\nI doubt that will make teams try to reduce their number of draft picks, though, because even if you miss on some late-round picks, and have to eat a few signing bonuses, you'll still save cap room if you hit on a few late-round picks. A rookie's minimum base salary is at least $150,000 less than that of a third-year player and at least $225,000 less than that of a fourth-year player. If one or two late-round picks can show enough to allow you to cut guys who have been around for two or three years without developing, then you'll come out ahead in terms of cap space used on those roster spots.\nTen-year rule has been used before\nThe explanation for the Faneca pick\nComparing projected comp picks to the actual resul...\nNFL announces comp picks\nA loophole around the NFL's 30 Percent Rule\nA review of last year's projections",

        "raw_content": "Lamb, Sir Horace (1849\u20131934)\nby R. B. Potts\nSir Horace Lamb (1849-1934), mathematician, was born on 27 November 1849 at Stockport, Cheshire, England, son of John Lamb and his wife Elizabeth, n\u00e9e Rangeley. After his father died his mother remarried and Horace was brought up by her sister. He was educated at Stockport Grammar School where Rev. Charles Hamilton was headmaster and Frederick Slaney Poole a junior classics master. In 1867 Lamb won a classical scholarship at Queens' College, Cambridge, but was considered too young and went for a year to Owens College, Manchester, where he was influenced to study mathematics at Cambridge. In 1868 he was elected to a minor scholarship at Trinity College (B.A., 1872; M.A., 1875); in his first degree he was second wrangler in the Mathematical Tripos and was elected a fellow and lecturer of his college.\nOn 6 November 1874 the Act founding the University of Adelaide received the governor's assent and Thomas Elder donated \u00a320,000 to the new university. The council decided to use this gift to found two professorships, one of them in mathematics. Meanwhile, Poole had migrated to South Australia and, knowing that Lamb was about to marry Elizabeth Foot, of Dublin, sister-in-law of Charles Hamilton, and would therefore have to resign his fellowship at Trinity, he wrote in 1875 to Lamb suggesting that he apply for the chair in Adelaide. Lamb was duly appointed and arrived with his wife in South Australia in March 1876 in time for the university's inauguration in April.\nAs one of the first four professors Lamb was prominent in establishing the academic and administrative structure of the university. He lectured in pure and applied mathematics as well as giving instruction in practical physics. The early experiment with evening lectures for students was not a success and the council arranged instead for the professors to give evening lectures to the general public on subjects which were to 'be handled in a manner at once scientific and popular'. Lamb's public lectures indicated his breadth and versatility, and included 'Sound and the Physical Basis of Music' and 'Optics with special reference to the Theory of Vision' in 1877, 'The Earth and our Knowledge of It' in 1878, 'Demonstrations in Physics' in 1879, 'The Scientific Principles involved in Electric Lighting and in the Electric Transmission of Power' in 1882 and 'Acoustics' in 1884. His Treatise on the Motion of Fluids had been published at Cambridge in 1879; retitled Hydrodynamics in 1895, it ran to many editions and was one of the masterly classics of applied mathematics. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1884.\nIn 1885 the University of Adelaide granted Lamb leave to enable him to visit England. He was farewelled from Adelaide by his colleagues and students who presented him with an address engrossed upon vellum: 'We who have enjoyed the rare privilege of sitting at the feet of so able an instructor as yourself gladly avail ourselves of the occasion \u2026 to express in some slight form our high appreciation of your ripe scholarship and the universal esteem in which you are held. The zeal displayed in the discharge of your arduous duties, and the interesting and happy manner in which you have delivered your able lectures will not soon be forgotten by those who have attended them. Your ready and generous assistance in times of difficulty, and the kind interest you have always shown in our welfare, have become bywords to us who in the pursuance of our studies have come under your care'. Lamb did not return to Adelaide but accepted appointment as professor of mathematics at Owens College and held that post until he retired in 1920. His last years were spent at Cambridge as an honorary fellow of Trinity College and as Rayleigh lecturer. After a brief illness he died at Cambridge on 4 December 1934.\nThe first six of Lamb's seven children were born in Adelaide. The eldest, Helen, became tutor in charge of Peele Hall, Newnham College, Cambridge; Ernest, the eldest son, became professor of engineering, Queen Mary College, University of London; the second son, Walter, was secretary of the Royal Academy of Arts, London, and was knighted; Henry became a fellow of the Royal Academy and was a well-known portrait painter and war artist.\nLamb won many honorary degrees and other academic distinctions. He served twice as vice-president of the Royal Society, received a royal medal in 1902 and in 1923 the Copley medal in recognition of his prominence and successful work in applied mathematics and was knighted in 1931. Later editions of Hydrodynamics incorporate the results of some of his many research papers, and among his other books, Infinitesimal Calculus (1897), Dynamical Theory of Sound (1910), Statics (1912), Dynamics (1913) and Higher Mechanics (1920), were adopted as texts in many English and Australian universities and greatly influenced progress in the teaching and research in applied mathematics. Lord Rutherford, when presenting Lamb's portrait to the University of Manchester in 1913, described Lamb as reaching 'more nearly my ideal of a university professor than anyone I have known'.\nUniversity of Adelaide, Calendar, 1877\nObituary Notices of Fellows of the Royal Society, Dec 1935\nRegister (Adelaide), 30 July 1885\nTimes (London), 5 Dec 1934.\nR.

        "title": "The Short Bus",
        "raw_content": "Hardcover, 288 pp\nJonathan Mooney graduated from Brown University with an honors degree in English. A recipient of the Truman Fellowship for graduate study in the field of learning disabilites and special education, he is also the co-author of Learning Outside the Lines.\nIn The Short Bus, his humorous, irreverent, and poignant record of this odyssey, Mooney describes his four-month, 35,000-mile journey across borders that most people never see. He meets thirteen people in thirteen states, including an eight-year-old deaf and blind girl who likes to curse out her teachers in sign language. Then there\u2019s Butch Anthony, who grew up severely learning disabled but who is now the proud owner of the Museum of Wonder. These people teach Mooney that there\u2019s no such thing as normal and that to really live, every person must find their own special ways of keeping on. The Short Bus is a unique gem, propelled by Mooney\u2019s heart, humor, and outrageous rebellions.\n\u201cJonathan Mooney is an uplifting, rebellious voice who will strike a chord with anyone who has ever had a hard time marching in step in a culture of conformity. His book is not just about how Jon found personal success after growing up with severe learning differences (dyslexia and ADHD), it's the story of his journey to accept himself by finding others labeled \"disabled\" or \"not normal\" who have survived and even triumphed. In person, in his amazing speeches around the country, Jonathan speaks with heart, spirit and energy, helping audiences re-imagine their lives. He does this same thing in his remarkable, magical book. Get on the short bus and fasten your seat belts. No matter who you are, you won't be the same at the end of this ride.\u201d\n\u2014Edward M. Hallowell M.D., author of Delivered from Distraction: Getting the Most Out of Life with Attention Deficit Disorder and other books\n\u201cCurious and compassionate, clearheaded and self-questioning, enlightened and illuminating, Jonathan Mooney takes us on a modern yet timeless odyssey. In his drive across America, he steers us past his own painful memories, through the history of disabilities, and into the lives of people who refuse to be oppressed. A long overdue tribute to our brothers and sisters on the short bus, and a desperately needed battle cry against the tyranny of normalcy.\u201d\n\u2014Rachel Simon, author of Riding the Bus with My Sister\n\u201cHop on board The Short Bus with Jonathan Mooney to experience a one of a kind ride. Purposefully taking readers far beyond the limits of 'normalcy,' he drives deep into the heart of human existence\u2014asking us where do we truly stand in our acceptance of diversity? As the informative, insightful, and irreverent guide of the tour, Mooney bares his soul and his ass in equal measure. Passing through the unpredictable landscape, we encounter the often disarming beauty of human difference embodied in the everyday lives of (extra)ordinary people who--by their very existence\u2014shatter the ideals of \"mainstream\" America. Ultimately, The Short Bus is a true celebration of survival and diversity.\u201d\n\u2014Dr. David J. Connor, Co-author of Reading Resistance\n\u201cThe Short Bus is a must-read account of a subversive journey through the heartland of normalcy. Mooney's trip is like Steinbeck's Travels with Charley or Kerouac's On the Road, only his subjects are a colorful gaggle of people with learning disabilities who share a refreshing irreverence towards the received ideas of a therapeutic society. Mooney writes with a strong power of observation and a refreshing writing style that makes you understand how good a writer a card-carrying dyslexic can be. Anyone interested in America, disability, or the pleasures of being alive should read this work.\u201d\n\u2014Lennard Davis, author of Enforcing Normalcy\n\u201cThis book should be required reading for anyone who thinks they are in the business of \"helping\" or \"serving\" people with disabilities. Mooney understands the power that comes when disabled children and adults claim their identity, reject social constructs of what is normal, and define success on their own terms. By journeying beyond normal, Mooney shows the way to a more human, more interesting destination that can transform the field of education, lay bare the shortcomings of the helping professions, and help disabled people get in touch with their own power.\u201d\n\u2014Andrew Imparato, President and CEO American Association of People with Disabilities\n\u201cGet on Jonathan Mooney\u2019s bus\u2014he will drive you to the heart of the matter.\u201d\n\u2014Simi Linton, author of the memoir My Body Politic\n\u201cThe Short Bus is a wonderful \u2018on the road\u2019 story that beats out even Kerouac\u2019s book. . . . Superbly written.\u201d\n\u2014John McKnight, author of The Careless Society.\n\u201cIn this wonderful memoir, John Mooney charts his passage out of ableism and saneism. Along the way, he teaches us the possibility of joining him in a state of mind beyond the binaries of the normal and the pathological. A true pleasure to read!\u201d\n\u2014Bradley Lewis, MD, PhD, Gallatin School of Individualized Study, New York University\n\u201cThe Short Bus should be tucked into the back of every short bus seat as a treat. And it should be required reading for every PTA, every school board, and every person involved with kids in any way.\u201d\n\u2014Josh Blue, Card-carrying member of the Freak Club\n\u201cThe view from The Short Bus is candid, irreverent and eye opening. Mooney takes us On the Road, asking what happens when you stop chasing the horizon of normalcy and start reveling in your differences.\u201d\n\u2014Harold S. Koplewicz, M.D., Chairman, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, NYU School of Medicine, Author of Moore than Moody and It\u2019s Nobody\u2019s Fault\n\u201cRide Jonathan Mooney\u2019s The Short Bus and you will be changed. With captivating storytelling, Mooney kidnaps the reader away from \u2018normal\u2019 for a journey that is hilarious, heartbreaking, and ultimately liberating. Anyone has had to deal with the ill fitted suit of \u2018normalcy\u2019 in their coming-of-age will recognize the struggles in these stories -- and as it turns out that means every one of us! The Short Bus gives us a whole new way to understand all young people, and to support the genius of difference in our communities.\u201d\n\u2014Michael Patrick MacDonald, author of All Souls and Easter Rising",

        "raw_content": "Home > News > CAS UNDERTAKES OPERATIONAL VISIT TO 21 QUICK RESPONSE WING AGATU, DECLARES MAKURDI RUNWAY OPEN TO CIVIL FLIGHT OPERATIONS\nThe Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, yesterday, 10 January 2019, undertook an operational visit to the 21 Quick Response Wing (21 QRW) Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Base Agatu, Benue State to assess facilities as well as the state of readiness of the troops of the Wing to deal with threats within the area. While in Benue State, the CAS also declared the Makurdi Military Airfield open to civil flight operations, after the successful completion of repair work on the Runway and ancillary facilities and having addressed all safety concerns.\nBefore declaring the Runway open to civil flight operations, the CAS was conducted on an inspection tour of the completed works by the Air Officer Commanding Tactical Air Command (AOC TAC), Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Oladayo Amao, who mentioned that the scope of the rehabilitation work covered refreshing of the sealant for the concrete slab joints on the Runway, Taxiways and Apron as well as the resurfacing of cracked portions of the manoeuvring area, re-marking of the Runway and erosion control, amongst others. Speaking after the inspection, the CAS commended the AOC TAC for effective supervision of the project and also congratulated the NAF Works Centre Abuja, which had executed the project through direct labour, for doing a good job. He added that the repairs, which had necessitated the closure of the Airfield to civil flight operations, as published in relevant Notices to Airmen (NOTAMS), were aimed at improving flight safety in accordance with global best practices as well as in line with International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) regulations. He further stated that a NOTAM had also been promulgated by the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) to reopen the airfield for normal operations.\nIn Agatu, the CAS was received by the traditional ruler of Agatu, Chief Dr Godwin Ngbede Onah, who conveyed the appreciation of his people to the NAF for its immense contributions to the return of normalcy in the area. The CAS was thereafter conducted on a tour of some facilities at the 21 QRW Base by the Commanding Officer 21 QRW, Squadron Leader Victor Ajeye, who also briefed him on the activities of the Wing since its activation on 19 October 2019. Speaking after the brief, Air Marshal Abubakar expressed satisfaction with the level of the facilities so far emplaced while promising that immediate action would be taken to meet the additional needs of the unit. This, he said, would include the immediate provision of additional equipment and other facilities to enable the Unit\u2019s Medical Station better serve the NAF personnel and members of the host community.\nSpeaking further, Air Marshal Abubakar thanked the troops for their hard work, diligence and commitment, which had ensured that peace was maintained in Agatu community, thus allowing the people to pursue their legitimate aspirations. He urged them to remain focused on their tasks while eschewing overtures from any quarters to get involved in duties outside their purview. He reminded them that, as the General Elections draw closer, they must remain apolitical and professional in the performance of their duties while exercising their legitimate rights to vote for the candidates of their choice on Election Day. The CAS later fielded questions, comments and observations from the troops.\nEarlier in his welcome address, the AOC Special Operations Command (SOC), AVM Samson Akpasa, thanked the CAS for his firm commitment to ensuring security, not only in Agatu but also in the entire Nasarawa-Benue States corridor, through the provision of necessary resources to 21 QRW. He said the commitment of the CAS was evidenced by his frequent visits to the area, this being the third in just 3 months. He said the effects of the CAS\u2019 commitment and presence of NAF personnel in the area were already being felt because the people of the community were seen carrying out their normal farming activities and harvesting produce as expected. He pledged the commitment of the personnel to remain professional while ensuring that lives and property of members of the communities within their Area of Responsibility (AOR) remained secure.\nThe 21 QRW Agatu has, since its establishment, not only been maintaining security in the area but also ensuring good civil-military relations with the host community. The Wing recently hosted a Medical Outreach from 3 - 8 January 2019, on the directives of the CAS, which had a Team of Medical experts from the Medical Services Branch Headquarters NAF that provided free medical services to nearly 4,000 members of the Agatu Community. This included about 3,500 general consultations, with free medications provided, as well as 47 minor eye and general surgeries and distribution of 150 insecticide treated mosquito nets and 100 prescription eye glasses, among others. The CAS has since returned to Abuja.",

        "raw_content": "New York, NY\u2014 Maritza Silva-Farrell, Executive Director of ALIGN, and a leading advocate for greater energy efficiency at New York City\u2019s large buildings, released the following statement in response to Mayor de Blasio\u2019s announcement of a clean and efficient buildings plan:\n\u201cFor several years, we have advocated for a robust city government mandate that requires private buildings to improve their energy efficiency. Mayor de Blasio\u2019s plan to reduce fossil fuel usage in private buildings that produce the most greenhouse gas emissions is a major step forward. His plan has been informed by the work of community, labor, and environmental justice organizations committed to increasing energy efficiency and creating thousands of good-paying climate careers of the future,\u201d said Silva-Farrell, whose advocacy organization ALIGN released a major report earlier this year calling for a citywide energy efficiency requirement that covers all aspects of large buildings across New York City.\n\u201cBuilding owners and developers have the capital to make large-scale energy efficiency improvements, and the city\u2019s skilled labor force is ready to do this work. But city government must do more to advance additional policies that boost energy efficiency across whole buildings, and specifically target electricity usage, while protecting affordable housing and vulnerable tenants. We look forward to working with the de Blasio administration and the City Council to ensure every necessary action is taken to achieve the goal of reducing emissions 80 percent by 2050,\u201d said Silva-Farrell.\nTo date, job creation in energy efficiency has been spotty, largely because city policies have either been voluntary, or have only covered certain aspects of a building such as lighting or oil-fired burners, the recent report from ALIGN notes.\nBut requiring building owners to improve efficiency across the board can spur employment growth across numerous occupations, including electricians, plumbers, carpenters, painters, and operating engineers, as well as engineers, energy auditors, and building service workers, according to the ALIGN report.\nThe Empire State Building is a key example of how large buildings can improve their energy efficiency, reduce emissions, create good jobs, and save money over time. The iconic building has cut its energy use nearly 40 percent and its energy efficiency upgrades will save more than $4 million each year. It\u2019s a model for other buildings to follow.",

        "raw_content": "'I smell dead people': Psychic claims she senses when people are close to dying - but can't save them\nA psychic claims she can smell when people are near death - but described her gift as 'useless' as she can't do anything to save them.\nAri Kala, 24, worked as a legal secretary before quitting her 9-5 job this year and pursuing her career as a professional psychic.\nShe first discovered her sixth sense when she visited her dying uncle aged 12 and smelled a 'sickly sweet' odour that no one else in her family could pick up.\nNow she teaches women how to harness their inner psychic powers - but revealed she never tells people when she notices the smell of death on them, as it's 'not her place'.\nAri, from New South Wales, Australia, said: \"The year before I started high school I visited my uncle to be with him as he died.\n\"The night before his death I picked up this this odd, sickly sweet rotten kind of smell in the house.\n\"I thought it was the smell of his remains as I had never smelled that before. But no one else could smell it.\n\"I realised later it was the frequency of death I could smell.\n\"Since then, I\u2019ve experienced the same thing around people with terminal diseases or the very elderly - too many times to count.\n\"Sometimes it feels like a burden. I used to want to say something, however I realized it\u2019s not my duty.\n\"I don\u2019t put much effort into developing it. It\u2019s kind of useless - how could it help anyone? How I can walk up to strangers with this smell and help them?\n\"What if they don't know they are going to die soon? If I told them that and they weren't aware, it could be catastrophic. I don't see how it's up to me to interfere with their fate.\"\nAri believes everyone has a psychic potential which is suppressed by societal conditioning from a young age.\nShe delved into the world of spirituality after being driven to depression working as a secretary at a major Sydney law firm.\nNow, she coaches women \u2013 many part of the witchcraft community \u2013 aged 25 to 45 about how to put there psychic skills to good use.\nAri said: \"Everyone has access to their psychic ability, but usually it is suppressed. Children are told to grow up from an early age.\n\"They are expected to fit in, be quiet and behave as normal as possible.\n\"They are also told their imaginations aren't real, which causes these psychic abilities to switch off.\n\"As a child I could read people\u2019s emotions and always dreamed about things that came true.\n\"People didn\u2019t like it, and as I grew more fearful of being judged I switched these abilities off.\n\"I was depressed working a 9 to 5 job - but then I realized I had a calling.\n\"I lost some friends and family, but it was the best decision I\u2019ve ever made.\n\"I teach empowerment from within. It\u2019s the ability to attract whatever you want - whether that\u2019s clients, money or your dream life.\n\"I used to get a bit of negativity from trolls online, but I have learned it\u2019s ok to be weird, and just to laugh it off.\"",

        "raw_content": "A useful conversation with Edward Luck, the Secretary-General's special advisor on Responsibility To Protect, served to highlight that the entire debate over what R2P is has been warped by the western media and, particularly, the French. (My opinion here, not Ed's.) Here's why: humanitarian military intervention -- the sort that many advocated in the Myanmar case, either by outright governmental overthrow or at least by an unlicensed airlift campaign a la Berlin -- is NOT the same thing as R2P. The original text for R2P that was agreed by the members states that:\n1. States must protect their own citizens.\n2. If a state can't protect its own citizens, the international community must help it do so.\n3. If it continues to refuse to do so, the international community must work together to help its citizens anyway.\nThe French, and a large number of editorial pages, skipped straight from Step 1 to Step 3. (Never mind that the R2P text doesn't include natural disasters anyway, and that no developing state would have supported it if it did.) The fact is, the area where we will see R2P used most effectively is on the diplomatic front. The first use of Responsibility To Protect, as Luck pointed out, was in Kenya, where Kofi Annan negotiated a political compromise to help the state keep its own citizens safe when it could not have done so without international help. We must not view R2P through an Iraq prism, an \"invade or do nothing\" prism. If that's what it's about, R2P will never get off the ground. But that's not, when you get down to it, what it's about.\nWhich means it's time for me to explain what I meant by \"Myanmar and the death of Responsibility To Protect.\" Whatever the Western media and Bernard Kouchner said, R2P was never put to the test in Myanmar. Because the situation was a natural disaster, it didn't even apply. R2P has been severely damaged, however, not by the fact that there was no humanitarian invasion of Myanmar, but rather by the fact that calls to do so in the name of R2P severely warped and damaged what R2P actually means. China and the developing countries are now very suspicious of the term, now that they've seen what Kouchner and company wish to do with it. It's going to take a long time to heal that loss of trust.\np.s. Professor Luck (he's also at Columbia University) also agreed with me, and with most of the Secretariat it appears, that military or coercive action against the regime would have exacerbated the problems, rather than fixing them. That was nice to hear also.",

        "raw_content": "Foundation Improvement Guaranties\nWarranty Game is the industry's most widely used sales tool. The most advertised, but most misunderstood part of, making repairs on your own is a warranty. The \"Lifetime Warranty\" or \"Life Long Term Guarantee\" or even the \"Longest Warranty in the Business\" will be visible. What does this mean? What is the guarantee? Are there any charges for the warranty? Most importantly, what kind of guarantee do I need?\nThe First Counseling Guarantee \u2013 Read It! If the seller does not have a copy to read, tell him to go. In general, there is only one reason why you do not have one and is because you do not want to read it. If the warranty is too long or too difficult to read, forget it. The guarantees are simple \u2013 \"This is what we cover and this is as long as we cover it.\"\nWhen it comes to lifelong guarantees, be careful. In some states, the \"lifetime warranty\" is 7 years, some say that 11 years and then some states are in the life of the device. Why would a life-long guarantee be 7 years? This is possible because, according to the general law adopted by some states, the normal life of the service is 7 years. In this condition, the lifetime warranty is not as good as the 10 or 15 year guarantee of others.\nLimited Warranty is included as standard in the basic repair. The term \"restricted\" means that the only thing that is covered is the things that can be affected by the work done. You still want to read this type of guarantee and understand what you are fed for and how long. Do not forget to ask if there are any fees before the contractor respects the guarantee.\nThe manufacturer's warranty is the number one item you need to search for. If the custom installer leaves the business, someone remains behind the purchased products. The best manufacturers offer a very simple and comprehensive guarantee for their products. A specific manufacturer has a three-part guarantee form that specifies exactly what to feed and for how long. One copy for the installation contractor's records, the other two goes to the real estate owner. The realtor then sends one copy directly to the manufacturer, so there is no doubt that he has been submitted. Simple and effective.\nWarranties can not be cumbersome, easily accessible and straightforward. They have to say what is covered and how long. If you hire a founding engineer to design and supervise installation and recommend a product delivered by a quality manufacturer, you will never have to penalize it. If this is the case, first call the engineer, second, the contractor and, finally, the manufacturer. The problem is solved and you will be happy.\nDo not play the warranty game. You can make quality people for the most valuable work and be sure you've made the right steps to pay.",

        "raw_content": "Syria: Middle East and Nbc News Essay\nSubmitted By johnjgeary\nShould America be concerned about Syria? The Middle East is something that Americans hear about almost every day on the news and in the newspapers. I can\u2019t help but wonder if most people even know the chemistry that makes up the Middle East. With so many different levels of the Muslim religion it self in one place who\u2019s right and who\u2019s wrong. The one place I\u2019m interested in is Syria and how involved should America get in the present crisis. After all do we know who we are helping are they just people who have had it with the way the government of Syria runs the country or are they extremist that would be even more hostel to the people of Syria. As I look in to this more and more I wonder myself if I\u2019ll even find the correct answer. I thing that the Middle East and America\u2019s interest there should be protected, as far as the religious barriers in the Middle East this is something that we as a country will never be abele to over come. I feel that we should stand back and not get our self\u2019s in to a war that we cannot win. It\u2019s almost as if the crusades will start all over again putting America right in the middle of it all. This is not something we need to be responsible for. Russia has intervened since I have started my research on this issue. Russia has always had a good political position with the Syrian government. I think that America is doing the right thing by letting Russia handle this with the oversight for the U.N. So where to start on such a complicated issue as this, I wonder if this is even something that I would even try to do as an essay. Most of the information that I have found is on the Internet. One that I feel is most trustworthy is the BBC they seem to have a very neutral reporting outlook on the news. This is one of the many sources I will use in the research project. I have looked at NBC NEWS and found them to be more liberal in there reporting. So looking for the truth on the issue is not easy. Most if not all the sources seem to have a political view. For example there is a strong degree of advocacy in the NBC NEWS source. This is why I question this source. 1) Did a chemical attack actually happen in Syria? 2) Who is responsible for the chemical attack in Syria? The first source that I came across on the Internet, this was a peace that was on the chemical attack in East Ghouta. A good place to start, I retrieved it on 9/16/2013.I feel the information is very helpful to the essay I\u2019m writing. The author is Mother Agnes Mariam. The atrial points out that the children in the photos may have been kidnap and gassed by the rebels to look like the Syrian government gassed it\u2019s own people. I find this hard to believe but after reading the article it intrigue me to do more research on the issue. Why would the rebels do this? Is it to make the Syrian government look bad to the international community? Which lead me to the next source, I retrieved this one on 10/13/2013 after reading the article I find it to have more of an angle of vision more then a reliability source. The article was written by Ken Hanly, he takes the position of Mark LeVine a professor of Middle Eastern history at UC Irvine, who points to more of a possibility that the rebels would not likely have access to chemical weapons.

        "raw_content": "Workshop held by Adaptation Scotland. Photo courtesy of Sniffer.\nIt is common knowledge by now that adaptation to climate change is only possible if a wide range of society engages itself into the process of implementing actions. For local governments it is therefore important to work together with regional stakeholders and to incorporate them into adaptation planning. But how is this to be done? Two examples of how local governments successfully integrated multiple stakeholder collaborations with researchers, experts, local communities and the private sector were given throughout our last webinar in 2012.\nThe experience of Anna Beswick from Adaptation Scotland shows that the need for climate change adaptation is not yet clear to every stakeholder in a region. Inputting knowledge about climate change and its direct impacts is therefore crucial to start a discussion in which everyone can follow and contribute. It also has to be clear to everyone what they can actually contribute and how they benefit from supporting adaptation goals.\nThree novel approaches presented in the webinars are especially interesting. A cutting-edge method to make people understand why changes in climate matter is to make them tell their climate story. To do so, participants in a workshop held by Adaptation Scotland were asked to draw their vision of a climate scenario they felt was relevant and to use words to describe it. These stories help people in different contexts or work environments to understand what climate change means for their own future.\nCollaborations between governments and businesses are not always easy. Looking at the same topic each side has a different perspective and it can be quite a challenge to bring them together. Lone Kelstrup from Carbon 20 in Denmark outlines a method how the Municipality of Kolding and other cities managed to establish closer ties to enterprises. They elaborated agreements between companies and city governments that contained obligations for both sides. Throughout this period of agreements the city workers got to know the people of the companies they worked with and became able to understand their partner\u2019s perspectives. Thus they developed long lasting and personal work relations that helped developing solutions for adapting to climate change.\nThe third method aims to bring together companies that supply energy solutions with those who are in need of these solutions. In workshop meetings organized by Carbon 20, the first group of companies was given some time to present their products and members of the second group of companies had the chance to introduce themselves. This method that works kind of like an auction is closing a vital gap in the facilitation of B2B (business-to-business) partnerships.\nTo learn more about common methods used to create stakeholder collaborations, specific results of real-life examples or challenges on the way, watch the Webinar on Collaborating with local stakeholders.\nThis blog post was written by Ines Schaefer from Resilient Cities",

        "title": "Peace Magazine v12n6p24: Consensus in Canberra: No Nukes from Now On!",
        "raw_content": "Consensus in Canberra: No Nukes from Now On!\nBy Alan F. Phillips, M.D.\nAn extraordinary thing happened at the 50th anniversary celebration of the United Nations in June 1995. Then Prime Minister of Australia, Paul Keating, announced that he would set up the Canberra Commission on the Elimination of Nuclear Weapons. The head of a state \"under the nuclear umbrella,\" and an ally of the United States was going to explore the elimination of the \"deterrence\" that had kept the U.S. safe from invasion for 50 years and no one said a word to stop him!\nThe Canberra Commission had its first meeting in January 1996. They issued their report on Aug. 14, two weeks prior to the Sept. 1 deadline the Australian government had given them. The report contained just the sort of things that NGOs working for peace have been saying for years. For example:\nThe Canberra Commission is persuaded that immediate and determined efforts need to be made to rid the world of nuclear weapons and the threat they pose to it. The destructiveness of nuclear weapons is immense. Any use would be catastrophic. The proposition that nuclear weapons can be retained in perpetuity and never used - accidentally or by decision - defies credibility.\nThe Commission recommends that the five nuclear weapons states commit themselves unequivocally to the elimination of nuclear weapons and begin to take the necessary practical steps and set up negotiations immediately. Other recommendations for immediate action include: taking nuclear forces off alert, removing warheads from delivery vehicles, ending the deployment of non-strategic nuclear weapons, ending nuclear testing, initiating negotiations to further reduce U.S. and Russian nuclear arsenals, reciprocal agreement of no first use among nuclear weapons states, and an undertaking by them not to use such weapons against non-nuclear weapon states.\nThese recommendations should be followed by the negotiation of the START III treaty; improved verification; and bringing into the negotiations China, Britain, France, and the states that have nuclear weapons but do not admit it.\nSo what's new about all this? It is not what was said, but who was saying it. The Canberra Report is the first of its kind to be commissioned by a western government. The 17 committee members reflected a diverse range of backgrounds and included such notables as Field Marshal Lord Carver, former Commander in Chief of the Far East Division of the British Army; Prof. Joseph Rotblat, 1995 Nobel Peace Prize winner; Ryukichi Imai, counselor to the Atomic Energy Commission of Japan; Jacques Cousteau, leading international campaigner on global survival issues; and Dr. Maj-Britt Theorin, member of the European Parliament and president of the International Peace Bureau.\nAt their first meeting the Commission's members all agreed that the goal was zero nuclear weapons:\nThe case for the elimination of nuclear weapons is based on three major arguments:\nThe destructiveness of nuclear weapons is so great that they have no military utility against a comparably equipped opponent, other than the belief that they deter that opponent from using nuclear weapons. Use of the weapons against a non-nuclear weapon opponent is politically and morally indefensible.\nThe indefinite deployment of the weapons carries a high risk of their ultimate use through accident or inadvertence.\nThe possession of the weapons by some states stimulates other nations to acquire them, reducing the security of all.\nDebunking Nuclear Myths\nThe case against the continued proliferation of nuclear weapons is presented in great detail:\nIt is false to claim that the world has traversed successfully the most dangerous phase of the nuclear era and is now on the path to modest, passively deployed nuclear forces that will deliver the asserted benefits of deterrence at much reduced risk. ...\nToday, the possible acquisition of nuclear weapons or material, including by terrorist and sub-state groups, has become a serious threat to the international community. Even the most powerful country in the world, the United States, is now vulnerable to such threats.\n... these weapons have no feasible role in deterring terrorists or sub-state groups armed with nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction.\nThe report then goes on to debunk, one by one, the most common arguments for retaining nuclear weapons. These arguments are treated seriously by the Commission in its report; the rebuttals, however, prove each and every pro-nuclear argument to be unsound.\nOne example is the belief that the elimination of nuclear weapons is unverifiable and that cheating will occur. The Commission responds that if:\n... the risk of a failure of deterrence in an environment of thousands of warheads on reliable delivery vehicles [is set] against the risks associated with whatever nuclear force a cheating state could assemble before it was exposed, it is beyond question that, of those two, the former is the vastly greater risk.\nThe report takes seriously the concerns that nuclear weapon states may have about their security during the reduction towards zero. The Commission outlines a very slow process and insists that \"the process must ensure that no state feels, at any stage, that further nuclear disarmament is a threat to its security.\" The report makes clear that this must be a global effort and must include a series of \"phased verified reductions\" that would allow states to satisfy themselves, at each stage of the process, that elimination is made safely and securely.\nRallying Public Opinion\nThe report overlooks one factor that may explain why nuclear weapons states continue to retain their weapons: the vested interest of the people and corporations whose careers, reputations, and profits depend on nuclear weapons.\nThe force we must bring against this barrier to disarmament is public opinion. Governments and decision-makers must hear the voices of popular objection loudly and clearly over those of the nuclear industry and its lobbyists. This is a critical goal of the Abolition 2000 campaign. The decision-makers must see public opposition to nuclear weapons as a more powerful force than the lobby in favor of retaining them.\nThe Canberra Commission and its report need to be widely known and discussed in order to reach its most important audience: the people of the world.\nTo read the Canberra Report, see web address http://www.dfat.gov.au/d-fat/cc/cchome.html.\nDr. Phillips works with Science for Peace and Physicians for Global Survival.\nSearch for other articles by Alan Phillips here",

        "title": "A Nile Campaign Watercolour of Aboukir Castle 1798 | The Armoury of St James's",
        "raw_content": "Measurements: Overall: 40.5cm (16in) x 51.5cm (20.25in)\nWatercolour on paper. Inscribed 'Egypt - Castle of Aboukir bearing S'6'W 5 miles - August 12th 1798', Signed and dated. Image: 21cm x 31.5cm. Framed and glazed.\nThe present watercolour was painted by Cooper Williams, an eyewitness on 1 August 1798 to the Battle of the Nile, where he was the chaplain of H.M.S. Swiftsure, 74-guns, and as such was able to observe the action from the precarious post of Captain Benjamin Hallowell\u2019s quarterdeck. The present scene shows the view of Aboukir Bay having been cleared of corpses and wreckage, but still with Bonaparte\u2019s troops in possession of the castle. Willyams\u2019s watercolour has a rare sense of immediacy and confirms his reputation as a skilful and clever artist, whose drawings were both \u2018intelligent and useful\u2019. During the battle itself, Swiftsure suffered twenty-nine casualties and was significantly damaged. She played a leading role in the destruction of L\u2019Orient and the capture of Franklin. Willyams\u2019s narrative A Voyage up the Mediterranean in the Swiftsure, illustrated by engravings from his own drawings, was praised as \u2018the first, the most particular, and the most authentic account of the battle\u2019.\nCooper Willyams (1762-1816) was educated at King's, Canterbury, and Emmanuel College, Cambridge. In 1784 he visited France and was ordained to a curacy near Gloucester. He was appointed in 1788 to the vicarage of Exning, near Newmarket, and in 1793 to the rectory of West Lynn, Norfolk. His illustrated account of Exning appeared in \u2018The Topographer\u2019 of September 1790 and in 1792 he published his first book, A History of Sudeley Castle, dedicated to a school friend Sir W. Brydges, who aspired (vainly) to inherit the property.\nIn 1793 after the outbreak of war with Revolutionary France, Willyams pursued his vocation at sea, and sailed as Chaplain of H. M.S. Boyne (88 guns), the recently-built flagship of Vice-Admiral Sir John Jervis, who was commanding a naval expedition to the West Indies. In the spring of 1794, a series of effective amphibious operations mounted by Vice-Admiral Jervis and Lieutenant-General Sir Charles Grey conquered some of the richest islands in the French West Indies, including Martinique, Guadeloupe and St Lucia, despite a heavy death-toll from yellow fever. Cooper Willyams contracted yellow fever, survived it, and during the last part of the campaign, he was the only Chaplain left in the expedition. Guadeloupe surrendered on in April 1794, and Willyams was appointed Chaplain to the forces occupying the island.\nThe British garrisons of the captured islands were weakened by continual outbreaks of disease and by slave revolts incited by French revolutionary agents, who declared all slaves to be free. Many of the islands, including ones that had been British, were lost to the French, while Jervis and Grey, accused of corruption, resigned in disgust and returned to England in the Boyne. In 1796 Cooper Willyams published An Account of the Campaign in the West Indies in 1794, including his own illustrations.\nIn 1797 Willyams was appointed Domestic Chaplain to Admiral Sir John Jervis, now Commander-in-Chief of the Mediterranean Fleet and ennobled as Earl St. Vincent. The role of domestic chaplain was effectively a spiritual Aide de Camp. The post brought Willyams the substantial financial advantage of being able to purchase a license to hold two benefices simultaneously, while residing in neither. From mid-1797 Jervis\u2019s flagship was H.M.S. Ville de Paris (110 guns) and with twenty-one ships of the line, the Commander-in-Chief focused on maintaining a close blockade of the main Spanish fleet at Cadiz. Cooper Willyams, like most naval officers, found the tedium of the blockade hard to bear. The following year, with St. Vincent\u2019s approval, he took up an opportunity to join the detached squadron commanded by Rear Admiral Horatio Nelson.\nOn 24 May 1798, Willyams became Chaplain of the Swiftsure (74 guns), serving under the American-born Post Captain Benjamin Hallowell. Willyams was present during Nelson\u2019s search for the French fleet that had sailed from Toulon, culminating in the Battle of the Nile on 1 August 1798. Willyams wrote a detailed eyewitness account of the battle, as he was able to watch much of it from Hallowell\u2019s quarterdeck. Swiftsure was one of the last ships in the British line of battle as it entered Aboukir bay. Fighting was already raging as Captain Hallowell made strenuous efforts to engage the French warships. Warned away from the Aboukir shoals by the grounded Culloden, Hallowell directed Swiftsure\u2019s Master to by-pass the melee at the head of the French and British lines and aim directly at the French centre, where the largest, most powerful enemy ships were stationed.\nShortly after 20:00, a dismasted hulk drifted in front of Swiftsure. When hailed, she identified herself as \u2018Bellerophon, going out of action disabled.' Relieved that he had not accidentally attacked one of his own ships in the darkness, Captain Hallowell stopped Swiftsure when she was between two much bigger enemy ships, L\u2019Orient (120 guns) and Franklin (80 guns). He opened fire on them both. At 21:00, flames were observed on a lower deck of L\u2019Orient. Captain Hallowell ordered his gun crews to aim directly at the blaze. Sustained bombardment spread the fire and neutralised all efforts to extinguish it. Soon the flames ascended the rigging and set the vast sails alight. The nearest British ships, Swiftsure, Alexander and Orion, all stopped firing, closed their gun-ports and began edging away from the blazing ship, anticipating that it would blow up once the fire reached a gunpowder magazine. Men were taken from the British gun crews to form firefighting parties and soak the sails and decks with sea-water.\nAt 22:00 L\u2019Orient, still, as Willyams noted, \u201cwithin half pistol shot\u201d (about 15-20 metres) of Swiftsure, was almost completely destroyed by two massive explosions. The blast was heard ten miles away in Rosetta. The concussion opened the seams of the nearest ships and flaming wreckage landed in a huge circle, much of it flying directly over the surrounding ships into the sea beyond. Swiftsure, Alexander and Franklin were all set alight by falling wreckage, although in each case their crews succeeded in extinguishing the flames. At 22:10, Franklin resumed firing on Swiftsure. Isolated and battered, it was soon dismasted and forced to strike by the combined firepower of Swiftsure and Defence. More than half of Franklin's crew had been killed or wounded. By midnight only Tonnant (80 guns) remained engaged, firing on Majestic and on Swiftsure when the British ship moved within range. By 03:00, after more than three hours of close quarter combat, Tonnant was a dismasted hulk which drifted away to the south.",

The process is known as molting.\nThe creature is probably prowling the city. On Tuesday, a 19th-century house was being surveyed prior to its renovation by an asbestos crew. The crew found something startling in the attic and thereby, raised alert.\nA floorboard was lifted by a self-proclaimed arachnophobe, surveyor Katie Parsons-Young, in the dark. And it was then that something unusual was discovered. Bringing a lamp closer to the unidentified thing, the creature's leg was seen. Thereafter, the surveyor screamed and ran away.\nWhile it was being thought initially by Parsons-Young and team from Kusten Vorland that it was a big live spider, a deeper inspection revealed that it was the discarded exoskeleton of a Chilean rose tarantula.\nThe exoskeleton has been sent to a laboratory for testing now. \"After watching the film Arachnophobia, I just can't go near them.

        "title": "Data protection policy - Bailiffgate Museum Alnwick",
        "raw_content": "The Bailiffgate Museum & Gallery (the \u201cMuseum\u201d) is committed to complying with privacy and data protection laws including the Data Protection Act 1998 (the \u201cAct\u201d) and the General Data Protection Regulation which comes into force in May 2018. The policy, together with our Privacy Notice (available to view on our website) sets out what we do to protect individual\u2019s personal information.\nAnyone who handles personal data in any way on behalf of the Museum must ensure that they comply with this policy. Section 2 of the policy describes what constitutes \u201cpersonal data\u201d. Any breach of this policy will be taken seriously by the Museum and may result in disciplinary action or more serious sanctions by external agencies.\nThis policy may be amended to reflect any changes in legislation, regulatory guidance or internal policy decision.\n2.0 Definitions of data protection terms\nThe following terms will be used in this policy:\nData subjects include all living individuals about whom we hold personal data. A data subject need not be a UK national or resident. All data subjects have legal rights in relation to their personal data.\nPersonal data means information relating to a living person who can be identified from that information (or from that information when combined with other information in our possession. Personal data can be factual (such as name, address or date of birth) or it can be an opinion (such as an appraisal).\nData controllers are the people who, or organisations which, decide the purposes for which, and the manner in which, any personal data is processed. They have a responsibility to process personal data in compliance with the DPA. The Museum is the data controller of all personal data we manage.\nData processors include any person who processes personal data on behalf of a data controller. Employees of data controllers are excluded from this definition but it could include other organisations such as website or server hosts or other service providers that handle personal data on our behalf.\nEEA is the European Economic Area which includes all countries in the European Union as well as Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein.\nICO means the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (the authority which oversees data protection regulation in the UK). The Act lays down rules for the provision of a public register of certain organisations. This register is maintained by the ICO and the Museum has registered with the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office.\nProcessing is any activity that involves use of personal data. It includes obtaining, recording, holding, organising, amending, using, disclosing or destroying personal data.\nSensitive personal data includes information about a person\u2019s:\nReligious or similar beliefs\nPhysical or mental health conditions\nSexual life or orientation\nCriminal record (including any allegation that they may have committed an offence).\n3.0 The Data Protection Principles\nAnyone processing personal data must comply with the eight data protection principles which are set out below-\nPersonal data shall be processed fairly and lawfully.\nPersonal data shall be processed for the purpose(s) which the individual has been told about and not in any way that is incompatible with that purpose(s)\nPersonal data shall be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purpose(s) for which it is processed.\nPersonal data processed for any purpose shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose.\nPersonal data shall be processed in accordance with individual\u2019s rights under the Act.\nPersonal data must be secure.\nPersonal data shall not be transferred to a country or territory outside the EEA unless that country or territory ensures an adequate level of protection for the rights and freedoms of data subjects in relation to the processing of personal data.\n4.0 Processing data fairly and lawfully\nThe first data principle requires that personal data is obtained fairly and lawfully and processed for purposes that the data subject has been told about.\nTo comply with this, every time we receive personal data about a person, which we intend to keep, we need to provide that person with \u201cfair processing information.\u201d In other words, we need to tell them promptly:\nwho will be holding their information i.e. the Museum\nwhy we are collecting their information and what we intend to do with it, e.g. send them updates about our events, and\nanything else necessary to make sure we are using their information fairly, e.g. if we plan to share their information with another organisation.\nThe Museum\u2019s fair processing notice can be found in our Privacy Policy.\n5.0 Processing data for the original purpose\nThe second data protection principle requires that personal data is only processed for the specific purpose(s) that the individual was told about when we first obtained their information.\nThis means we must not collect personal data for one purpose and then use it for another, unless the second purpose is implicit.\n6.0 Personal data must be accurate\nThe third and fourth data protection principles require that personal data we keep must be accurate, adequate and relevant. Data must be reviewed regularly and any inaccurate data must be immediately corrected and updated.\n7.0 Not retaining data longer than necessary\nThe fifth data protection principle requires that we must not keep personal data for longer than we need it for the purpose it was collected for. This means that personal data that we hold must be securely destroyed or fully erased from our systems (not archived, unless for specific purposes) where the data is no longer needed for the purposes we originally collected it.\n8.0 Rights of individuals under the DPA\nThe sixth data protection principle gives people rights in relation to how organisations process their personal information. They include (but are not limited to) the right:\nto request a copy of any personal data we hold about them (as data controller), as well as a description of the type of information that we are processing, the uses that are being made of the information and details of anyone to whom their personal data has been disclosed (known as subject access rights)\nto have inaccurate data amended or destroyed\nto prevent processing that is likely to cause unwanted substantial damage or distress to themselves or anyone else; and\nto ask us to cease processing for direct marketing purposes.\nThe seventh data protection principle requires that we keep secure any personal data that we hold. We are required to put in place procedures to keep the personal data that we hold secure. In the unlikely event that we are dealing with sensitive personal data (as defined in paragraph 2 above), more rigorous security measures will be needed, for instance, if sensitive personal data is held on a memory stick or other portable device it must be encrypted.\nThe following security procedures must be followed in relation to all personal data processed by the Museum:\nsecure lockable desks and cupboards: desks and cupboards must be kept locked if they hold confidential information of any kind (personal data is always considered confidential)\nmethods of disposal: paper documents must be shredded. Memory sticks, CD-ROMs and other media on which personal data is stored must be physically destroyed when they are no longer required\nbacking up data: daily back-ups must be taken of all data on our systems. Data must not be stored on local drives or removable media as these will not be backed up\ntravelling with personal data and remote working: Staff must keep data secure when travelling or using it outside of our offices\nsecure exchange of data: Personal data must always be transferred in a secure manner. The degree of security will depend on the nature of the data; the more sensitive and confidential the data, the more stringent the security measures must be.\n10.0 Transfer of data outside the EEA\nThe eighth data protection principle requires that when organisations transfer personal data outside the EEA they take steps to ensure that the data is properly protected.\nThe European Commission has determined that certain countries provide an adequate data protection regime. These countries currently include Andorra, Argentina, Canada, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Israel, New Zealand, Switzerland, Faroe Islands, Jersey and Uruguay and this list may be updated. As such, personal data may be transferred to people or organisations in these countries without the need to take additional steps beyond those you would take when sharing personal data with any other organisation. In transferring personal data to other countries outside the EEA (which are not on the approved list), it may be necessary to seek the consent of the individuals whose data is being transferred or to enter into an EC-approved agreement.\nIn most instances the Museum only transfers personal data within the EEA. However, there may be occasions when some transfers take place to individuals or organisations based in countries outside the EEA. If this happens arrangements should be made to encrypt the data.\n11.0 Processing sensitive personal data\nIn the unlikely event that we collect sensitive personal data special rules apply to the processing of it. The categories of sensitive personal data are set out in the definition in section 2. Purely financial information is not technically defined as sensitive personal information by the DPA, however, particular care must be taken when processing such data, as the ICO is likely to treat a breach relating to financial data very seriously.\nIn most cases, in order to process sensitive personal data, we must obtain explicit consent from the individuals involved. As with any other type of information we will also have to be absolutely clear with people about how we are going to use their information.\n12.0 Data held by the Museum\nUnder company law we are obliged to maintain a list of members of the Company including names and addresses. A copy of the list is available for scrutiny at 14 Bailiffgate, Alnwick and copies provided, on request, to members of the public, on payment of a charge.\nThe Museum also maintains records of employees, volunteers, donors and purchasers from the Museum website and others who have registered their details (including specific demographic and personal interest details) on the website and have also specifically chosen to receive future e-mails from us.\nThe information about employees includes that which was recorded on application forms and may include the following:\nname, home address, telephone and email contact details\nnext of kin and / or contact details in the event of an emergency\ncopies of references obtained or written about the employee\ndetails of qualifications or skills\ndetails of trade union membership/activities\ngrievances and disciplinary matters\nholiday records\nself-certification sickness forms and doctors\u2019 sick notes\ndocumentation relating to or authorising deductions from pay\nconsent forms.\nThis list is not exhaustive and is subject to change.\nThe information about volunteers includes that which was recorded on the Volunteer Application forms. The Museum may also hold the following personal data:\nattendance record as a volunteer\nCRB, if required\ncopies of any references obtained or of any references written about the volunteer\nrecords of any personal development meetings\nThe Museum also maintains a list of email addresses and addresses of members of the public for the sole purpose of marketing events at the Museum.\nAll hard copies of personal information by the Museum must be held at its registered office and is be kept in a locked cabinet in the Museum office both of which can only be accessed by named keyholders.\nAll data held on a computer must be protected by a password which is known only by specified users, agreed by the trustees.\nA record must be maintained by the Museum Coordinator of any personal information in use outside the office for essential work at home (e.g. arranging volunteer rota).\nAny changes to data stored should be made immediately by the Museum Coordinator and arrangements should be put in place to review all information annually to ensure that it is correct.\nAll email communications will use \u2018bcc\u2019 to ensure data protection, unless individuals have agreed to have their email address identified.\nThe accountants (Greaves Grindle) must be informed immediately of changes affecting the list of trustees.\nAll trustees, staff and volunteers must be advised of these procedures and requested to comply with its obligations.\nThe eight principles will apply to data which is collected when interviewing potential trustees, employees and volunteers.\nThe Museum must ensure that any third parties holding databases on behalf of the Museum operate to equivalent secure standards of data management, fully compliant with all relevant legislation.\nEnsure that in every information e-mail or SMS sent on behalf of the Museum it is possible for the recipient to unsubscribe to further emails or SMS from us.\n14.0 Offences, fines and liability\nAny offences under the DPA could result in prosecution under section 55 of the Act by the ICO. A person must not knowingly or recklessly, without data controller\u2019s consent:\nobtain or disclose personal data or the information contained in personal data, or\nprocure the disclosure to another person of the information contained in personal data.\nMuseum employees and volunteers can be individually liable under section 55 and consequently they may be fined directly by the ICO. They may also face disciplinary action under the Museum\u2019s disciplinary policy.\n15.0 Policies to be read in conjunction with this policy",

        "raw_content": "VanillinJoanna evoniuk2018-12-10T05:13:19+00:00\nVanillin is the primary component of the extract of the vanilla bean.\nVanillin is the primary component of the extract of the vanilla bean. It is used as a flavoring agent in foods, beverages, and pharmaceuticals. It is a phenolic aldehyde, an organic compound with the molecular formula C8H8O3.\nThe history of vanillin begins with Cortez, the famous Spanish conquistador, who is said to have been served a chocolate drink flavored with vanilla by the Aztecs around 1520. He brought the knowledge of both chocolate and vanilla back to Spain and Europe, where they rapidly became popular. Gobley, in 1858, was the first to isolate and identify the vanillin constituent of the vanilla bean and to confirm that this was the chief flavor environment.\nThe vanilla aroma was so popular that in 1875, less than 20 years from its initial isolation, synthetic vanillin became available in France and the Unites States. 1 Vanillin was first synthesized from eugenol, which is the essential oil from cloves, then lignin and then guaiacol. Currently, around 20, 000 tons are produced per year.\nVanillin is an antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticarcinogenic and antimutagenic and antisickling agent.2\nVanillin is produced from oil (85%), woody biomass (15%), vanilla pods (<1%).1\nProduction from vanilla pods:\nThe worldwide production of natural vanilla extract is 40 to 50 tonnes per year, which represents less than 1% of the total vanillin production.1 Vanilla beans are harvested from species of the Vanilla orchid, a tropical climbing plant grown in Mexico, Madagascar, Java, Reunion, and Tahiti. Each vanilla orchid must be manually pollinated to attain reasonable yields. Hand pollination is very laborious and discourages the cultivation of these plants at a very large scale. The cured vanilla pods have vanillin at a concentration of 1.0-2.0% w/w.3 When vanillin is produced from vanilla beans by this process, the labelling on the consumer product maybe indicated as \u201cnatural vanilla flavor\u201d, which is a powerful marketing argument.\nProduction from lignin\nThe production of vanillin from lignin of waste sulfite liquor began in North America in 1936-1937.1 This method thrived after its introduction. However, almost all the lignin-to-vanillin production plants closed at the end of the 1990s. Closures of lignin-to-vanillin production plants were due to several reasons such as:\nIncreased environmental concerns toward the caustic effluent of the process.\nDecreased lignin availability due to the increasing use of the Kraft process for pulping, in which lignin is burnt to produce energy.\nThe rise of cheap chemical intermediates from petroleum.\nSince then, the dominant feedstock for vanillin is petroleum. Vanillin production from lignin accounts for 15% of the market.1 Vanillin produced from lignin is more expensive than petro-based vanillin, but it displays an aromatic intensity 1.2 times higher than the petro-based variety.1\nProduction from guaiacol\nAround 85% of the world supply is produced from petro-based intermediates, especially guaiacol. Vanillin is produced by condensation of guaiacol with glyoxylic acid followed by oxidation of the resulting mantellic acid to the corresponding phenylglyoxylic acid and, finally, decarboxylation continues to be a competitive industrial process for vanillin synthesis. Currently, guaiacol is synthesized from catechol, which is prepared by acid-catalysed hydroxylation of phenol with H2O2. Glyoxylic acid is obtained as a by-product in the oxidation of glyoxal with nitric acid.4\nVanillin, the synthetic flavoring substance, is generally recognized as safe for their intended use, regulated by FDA in the Code of Federal Regulations (Title 21 Part 182.60).5\nFache, Maxence, Bernard Boutevin, and Sylvain Caillol. \u201cVanillin Production from Lignin and Its Use as a Renewable Chemical.\u201d ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering ACS Sustainable Chem.

The demand for skilled workers in the manufacturing sector has skyrocketed since the implementation of hydraulic fracturing brought thousands of jobs to remote areas of the United States four years ago. As the demand continues to grow it is becoming more and more difficult to find qualified workers. The Montana University System hopes to remedy this problem. The system has received a new grant that should help lower-income based students and military veterans receive training from two-year colleges in order to gain the skills needed to work in the manufacturing sector.\nThe program was announced on Thursday, 13 colleges in the state of Montana are eligible for the extra $500,000 funding award. A report in the Ravalli Republic states that the shortage of manufacturing workers in the country could be as high as 200,000.

        "raw_content": "To Socialize or Not to Socialize\nIt\u2019s my new buzz word. I\u2019ll admit it. I am taking my almost two year old twins to infant preschool so that they can get \u201csocialized\u201d. In fact when I mention this plan to health care professionals they nod in agreement. The children will develop communication skills best in the company of other children, rather than adults. It seems to be a good plan, and my discovery of a local Strong Start programme up the road made this goal so much easier. Sadly it took me almost two months to realize such a programme existed. However we did have the opportunity to go for a good number of sessions in the spring, despite three weeks off for three bouts of cold between the three of us.\nLast week the programme closed for the summer. Eleven weeks loom large ahead of us. \u201cHOW\u201d, I\u2019m thinking, \u201ccan I find ways for these children to socialize with their peers?\u201d\nLet\u2019s stop just a moment to think about whether this socialization goal is a worthy one. In a local newspaper a columnist wrote the following on the topic: \u201cWhat happened to the days when \u201cGo out and play with the other kids\u201d was all you needed to hear about the subject [of socialization]?\u201d This comment has rankled me ever since I read it weeks ago. \u201cTerry\u201d, I thought. \u201cI\u2019d like you to come to my neighbourhood where there is nary an under five year old to be seen in the public domain. Exactly how are my children supposed to go outside and play with other children?\u201d I suspect there may be young children living about fifteen houses up and I know that a set of older twins live a few blocks down the road and down the hill. We live in a hilly area in the Tri-City region so the simple task of walking up or down the street can be a real work out. This is especially the case if I\u2019m on my own with the children and take the double stroller because I want to go a fair distance.\nDriving is always a possibility, if we want to lay claim on the one car in the household and make the other parent take transit to downtown and back, instead of parking and riding. We signed up on four different Meetup.com site groups where information is posted about events for children. (Mostly not in our area.) We can choose between get togethers in cafes or walks on gravel trails, for example. Neither work for a parent with young twins who like to go in different directions and sit in a double stroller that\u2019s hardly meant for rough terrain. Still, if I sift through the event listings carefully, I could probably find a playgroup or event in a neighbouring Tri-City area. We can also go to the library where you would find me carrying one child sideways under my arm while chasing the other one, all the while trying to keep them from screaming or squealing. The local playground is designed for older children; however, there is an open grassy area. The last time we went one child headed off towards the baseball pitch while the other ran up the field. This may not seem like a problem, until you get into open spaces near roads.\nThis takes me back to our local experience. In an effort to encourage connections in my own neighbourhood I set up a social network site for parents I met recently in a programme we had been attending. This is the reality of parents living in large cities everywhere \u2013 such as Los Angeles. It would not seem unusual to get in your car and drive a distance to go to a playgroup. Yet, I can hear the naysayers now. \u201cHow artificial. Why can\u2019t they play with children nearby? Why does the mother have to orchestrate everything, like a helicopter hovering about.\u201d In response, I\u2019m left with this irritated, curmudgeonly feeling about Terry O\u2019Neill\u2019s suggestion. I\u2019m not whining or complaining. I\u2019m not looking for sympathy. I\u2019m just asking a question. Does the idea of children in the neighbourhood playing together at home and outdoors, as we knew the concept in the 70s, exist anymore? What about friends with young children and family getting together regularly?\nWhen I was in my early childhood years I lived in Ethiopia with my older brother and parents. While my father took the car and went to work, Monday to Friday, my mother was left with the children, housekeeper, guard and gardener in a one house compound. She cooked, sewed all of our clothes, looked after us, wrote letters, and planned social events. While she was excited to be living in Africa, she also experienced feelings of loneliness and isolation. Here I am, years later, finding myself in a similar circumstance. It\u2019s an interesting parallel. I don\u2019t feel lonely or isolated, but my children are living in just as much of a bubble as I did back in Africa.\nStill, the fact remains that my children need to meet up with other children. They need to be challenged linguistically. They need to be challenged in general. At this age they are more likely to play side by side, rather than interact, but they still need that valuable socialization experience.\nOh. There\u2019s that word again.\nSo Mr. O\u2019Neill. If you have a surplus of young children in your neighbourhood, do send them my way. Because I have two children here who would like the opportunity to play.",

        "raw_content": "HomeBlogBlogTrump\u2019s Call To Turkey\u2019s Erdogan Highlights The Ethical Mess He\u2019s Brought To The White House\nTrump\u2019s Call To Turkey\u2019s Erdogan Highlights The Ethical Mess He\u2019s Brought To The White House\nWASHINGTON \u2014 This week, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan harboured a referendum in which he narrowly won the ability to claim broad-minded brand-new governmental strengths. The referendum was treated by international observers as a grotesque ability grasp, and the House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman advised\u201d all who price democracy \u2026 should be concerned .\u201d\nBut President Donald Trump didn\u2019t see it that way. Instead, he phoned Erdogan to congratulate him on the prevail. Foreign policy experts may have been amazed at the president\u2019s seeming consolation with sneaking authoritarianism. But soon thereafter, justifications emerged.\nIt wasn\u2019t just that Trump has an attraction for strong humankinds. His category has direct ties to Erdogan himself. Back in April 2012, the Turkish president met the Trump family at the inauguration of Trump Towers Istanbul.\nNever before in U.S. biography have the president and his private business pastimes been so entangled with matters of public affairs. Trump\u2019s affairs have led to accusations that he is hopelessly conflicted, ever more so because of his trust on \u201ctheir childrens\u201d( themselves actors in the Trump business empire) to help with his administration.\n\u201d We\u2019ve seen an unprecedented number of conflicts of interest arising as a result of this administration ,\u201d said Jordan Libowitz, a spokesman for the moralities watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Morality in Washington.\u201d Are the president\u2019s comments toward Erdogan related to his support for a Trump property? We can\u2019t know, but it\u2019s a question we unfortunately are forced to ask .\u201d\nIn response to criticisms like these, Trump insists that he was able to act independently, accurately because he has accrued enough abundance to manufacture him incorruptible. But the case of the Turkey referendum exposes another way in which Trump\u2019s past life is now complicating his presidency: He has numerous business-related connections with public officials from other countries with whom he now must conduct public diplomacy.\nTake, for example, Trump\u2019s schedule for this week. The chairwoman is set to welcome Argentine President Mauricio Macri to the White House in order to discuss\u201d bilateral and regional issues, including the deteriorating situation in Venezuela .\u201d\nMacri, the son of a wealthy real estate developer, was well known Trump for more than three decades. He and \u201chis fathers\u201d exchanged Trump real estate in Manhattan in the 1980 s. \u201d I spent millions of hours with him. How is Trump? He\u2019s like that: a extremely showoff, very exhibitionist kind of guy ,\u201d Macri said in an interrogation last year.\u201d It\u2019s all an ordinance, from morning till nighttime .\u201d\nAnd when Macri inspects the White House, it will be with a specific objective: Argentina is hoping to dramatically expand trade relations with the United States.\nAlready, the ties between the two leaders have raised questions about Trump\u2019s conduct in power. Last-place time, the Argentine government denied a report that Trump strove help from Macri in accelerating a stalled Trump construction project in Buenos Aires following his ballot in November.\nArgentina isn\u2019t the only nation to which Trump has ties that expand his business and political portfolios. The former chairman of Panama , Ricardo Martinelli, is consistent with Trump and Donald Trump Jr. years ago to discuss hosting a Trump-run beauty pageant in the two countries. He was also there for the opening of the Trump Ocean Club, in Punta Pacifica, Panama City, where Trump reportedly referred to him as a \u201cfriend.\u201d\nPanama Presidency Press Department\nMartinelli fled Panama in January 2015 after being accused of insider trading, embezzlement and using public fund to illegally spy on beings. He is believed to be living in Miami, and the Panama government formally requested his deportation last-place descend. Despite that request, Martinelli was invited to Trump\u2019s inauguration.\nIt\u2019s not just Trump\u2019s direct ties to souls who are currently complicate his foreign policy. His daughter Ivanka \u2014 who recently took on a formal White House role \u2014 does, very. She traveled to Baku, the capital city of the former Soviet country of Azerbaijan, in 2010 and 2014 for the construction of the Trump Organization\u2019s luxury hotel there.\nThe point person for that projection was Anar Mammadov, the billionaire son of the country\u2019s transportation minister, suspected of cleaning money for Iran\u2019s military. Mammadov was included on Trump Organization press releases. At the same hour, he was operating as an influence peddler in Washington, ranging the Azerbaijan lobbying shop there.\nThe Trump hotel was ripe with corruption, a chore so bad The New Yorker magazine recently announced it Donald Trump\u2019s\u201d worst deal .\u201d The Trump Organization separated its ties with development projects a month after Trump\u2019s election victory.\nAnother developer, Century Properties chair Jose Antonio, we still have close ties to the Trump family. A real estate financier in the Philippines, Antonio facilitated build Trump Tower Manila. Trump\u2019s sons are photographed with him, Ivanka Trump visited the project, and Donald Trump himself praised the Antonio family as\u201d true professionals .\u201d Since then, Antonio has moved into a public persona, mentioned special emissary to America by the Philippines\u2019 contentious strongman chairperson, Rodrigo Duterte.\nTrump Tower Facebook page\nIn light of Duterte\u2019s gross human rights record, U.S. program towards the Philippines has come under sharp-worded revaluation, with asks attaching for withholding military aid to the country. Nevertheless, Trump has heaped praise on Duterte for his anti-drug-trafficking programs, which include vows to kill addicts. Trump has reportedly invited him for a White House visit.\nTrump\u2019s ties to prominent foreign business leaders also raise questions. Qatar Airline, the state-owned airline of Qatar, which is ruled by Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, has had a\u201d corporate campus\u201d in Trump Tower in Manhattan since at least 2008. When the airline began flights to New York in 2007, Trump and his wife Melania attended \u201cstates parties \u201d alongside Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker on the red carpet.\nSaudi Prince Mutaib bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, a former pastor in the Saudi government, and member of the Saudi royal family, reportedly live in a floor-through Trump Tower suite.\nA trio of prominent Indian developers who helped improve the first Trump-branded property in India were recently pictured with Trump and his children in New York when they saw Trump Tower. Those depicts were removed from Twitter shortly after ethics protectors conjured alarms.\nAnd in a New Year\u2019s Eve 2017 addres at Mar\u2013ALago, Trump opened a shout out to his affluent Dubai business partner Hussain Sajwani and members of their families, whom he announced \u201d the most beautiful people .\u201d\nSajwani\u2019s company improved the Trump International Golf Course in Dubai.\u201d My wife and Ivanka are very good friends ,\u201d Sajwani told NBC News.\u201d They send emails. She\u2019s been here to my house. We\u2019ve been in New York having lunch and dinners with them regularly. And, you know, you experience is collaborating with mortal \u2014 it\u2019s not only cold business relation .\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Sump pump alarm is a device to alert you when your sump pump is not functioning well. We all have heard stories of how, after a night of prolonged and heavy rain, some homeowners wake up in the morning only to find that everything in the basement is wet and damaged from the downpour. Some people question how this could have happened when they already have sump pump systems installed in their property. The answer to this lies in the sump pump alarm.\nHow Sump Pump Alarm Works\nWe all know that sump pumps may not function at its best at all times. Oftentimes, the sump pump float will get stuck and stop the motor from working entirely without you even knowing. If you do not want this to happen, then you ought to purchase a sump pump alarm and install it right away.\nA sump pump alarm functions quite simply - you hang it in the sump pump basin or the water hole and just leave it there. Put it in a lever where you consider critical and once water reaches that level, the alarm will go off. This will alert you that the sump pump might not be working well.\nWhat To Do When The Sump Pump Alarm Goes Off\nWhen your sump pump alarm goes off, you know that there is something wrong with the sump pump. It means that water has reached a critical level and the sump pump is not sucking it out. When this happens, the first thing you should check is the electrical cord. Make sure that it is properly connected to the sump pump\u2019s electric supply.\nThe next thing you need to check would be the sump pump float. Oftentimes, the sump pump float is the culprit on why the sump pump is not working. Usually, the float gets stuck or loses its buoyancy, making the float immovable and therefore, does not signal the sump pump to work. If this is the case, simply changing the float or moving it can solve the problem.\nIf the sump pump doesn\u2019t work even though both the electric supply and sump pump float are functioning fine, you should quickly seek help from qualified pump professionals before your basements starts flooding.\nOne of the good things about the sump pump alarm is that you can purchase it quite easily, including online. Moreover it is a relatively inexpensive device.\nThis alarm is a very cost efficient and useful component of the sump pump system. With this, you can be sure that you will be notified as and when your sump pump stops working suddenly. Having it will save your property, furniture and other home fixtures from water damage and moisture. It is definitely something every sump pump owner should get as it can potentially save you a lot of money in the long run.

The first few chapters introduce the general principles of protein structure both for novices and for non-specialists needing a primer. Subsequent chapters use specific examples of proteins to show how they fulfill a wide variety of biological functions. The book ends with chapters on the experimental approach to determining and predicting protein structure, as well as engineering new proteins to modify their functions.\nPosted in: BOOKS, PROTEINS, STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY Posted on: Monday, September 16, 2013",

        "title": "Ancestors Within: Superstitions and Traditions",
        "raw_content": "Why did my grandmother Dorothy cover mirrors whenever there was a thunderstorm? Why did my grandfather Harry believe he saw a ghost of an old lady when he visited a big old house in Shropshire?\nWhat are the superstitions and traditions followed in your family? Which stories are passed on from generation to generation?\nLearn about the science of superstitions\nSome common superstitions\nDorothy was born in 1906 and died in 1997. She was a lovely grandma. She was round and jolly and had the smell of soap flakes. In her youth, she was slim and graceful. Yet I knew very little about her or her family while she was alive. Questions were never asked. The present was so busy when I was growing up. The past was so remote.\nBritish culture and traditions\nThere have been quite a few surprises over the past year or so for me and my family. We have discovered some long-hidden family truths from census records and birth certificates. In a previous blog post, I mentioned the siblings of Dorothy, only one of whom had ever been mentioned to my mother, and then only very vaguely.\nDuring her early childhood, Dorothy and her family lived in Wednesbury in Staffordshire. I am not sure if she still lived in Wednesbury during the First World War, but a very unpleasant event would have profoundly affected the people who did live there:\nThe Great Zeppelin Raid\nI recently found another very interesting website. One page has photographs of the war memorial in Darlaston in Staffordshire. Darlaston was where Dorothy's brother had lived in the years before he went to war. The only military person with a full first name engraved for the 1939-1945 conflict was my great uncle Bert Harris.\nDarlaston War Memorial\nThere are many ways to remember those who died.\nThe tradition of Remembrance Day\nMourning rituals through time\nTraditions may have a practical basis or a superstitious one. Which traditions do you follow, and why?\nMany people have mementos of the past that bring life to their family histories. Which objects make your ancestors seem closer to you?\nHere are my lovely grandparents, Harry and Dorothy. I do not have many photographs of them so every one is precious to me.\nHarry and Dorothy were never known by their first names by people outside the family. Traditions of courtesy and formality were very important in their opinion.\nI am also interested in finding cultural connections between different parts of the world. On a personal level, I have gathered some Staffordshire-Australia links:\nIn memory of Australian cancer specialist Professor Gordon Hamilton-Fairley (1930-1975), who died in an IRA bombing targeted at Harry and Dorothy's Member of Parliament\nMr Cook (1860-1947) the Staffordshire miner who became Prime Minister of Australia\nStaffordshire rooms in a Tudor mansion in Australia\nMr Jervis (1735-1823) who went from the middle of Staffordshire to lead the Royal Navy\nMr Wedgwood (1730-1795) made a Sydney Cove Medallion in Staffordshire using Australian clay\nDo you know of any other important connections between Staffordshire and Australia?\nAlthough I do not think of myself as a superstitious person, and I do not like having other people's superstitions, traditions, or other beliefs and behaviours imposed upon me, I enjoy learning about many aspects of heritage and culture. A quiet sit down with a cup of tea is one English tradition I do like to keep, but I never try reading the tea leaves!",

A few minutes later, a woman walked in and asked if we wanted drinks. She sent in a guy to act as a barman when we said we would. He sat in the backroom most of the game, saying to just shout if we needed anything. But near the end of the match, he came out and asked me to help him on his computer, to make a CD with some songs on it. So in addition to my tip, I helped him with burning a CD; I feel like he did alright on the day.\nI leave Ingwavuma tomorrow morning. It\u2019s been a weird two weeks; perhaps the weirdest is that it\u2019s felt like much longer. I feel quite settled here. I\u2019ve been cooking for myself; I have a routine; I\u2019ve made friends. It\u2019s also so far removed from an American life or really any city life that I\u2019ve experienced that it feels like I\u2019m living another life\u2013perhaps someone else\u2019s life\u2013entirely.\nWhat better way to end a weird two weeks than a weird day: I changed a tire, set up two computers, and had lunch at a hidden cafe where the waitress ran (jogged is perhaps a more appropriate term) from the table to the kitchen, despite the fact that we were the only two people there and that we were in no hurry whatsoever.\nTonight was a going away bbq\u2013a braai as it\u2019s called in SA English. My family friend, her fiance, my coworkers and a few of the people I\u2019ve met here all turned out. We ate well, chatted and had a grand time.\nOn the way back, one pick up served as the ride home for eight or nine people. I stood in the back holding onto the rollbar with two Zulus and a Malawian as we made our way down a bumpy dirty road. People may decry being careless about safety in foreign countries when one wouldn\u2019t be at home, but this time it didn\u2019t produce any injuries, just a giant smile on my face as we bumped through black night with cold air rushing past our bodies.",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s old news by now: videos are taking over social media. Everyone\u2019s watching them, sharing them and, put simply, loving them. Naturally, businesses are looking for ways to take advantage of the craze. Indeed, there are quite a few ways you can implement videos in your marketing strategy and it doesn\u2019t involve you breaking the bank. Having a third party agency making video content for you can easily reach the 20.000 \u2013 30.000$ price range, so we\u2019ve collected a few ways for you to cut many corners and make great content on your own.\nIn this article, we\u2019ll first go over potential scenarios for which you could use video and right after that we\u2019ll give you some actionable advice how you can shoot great video content on your smartphone.\nIf you\u2019re just not sure what you could even cover with video here are a few ideas:\nAnnouncing new product. If you\u2019re about to launch a new member of your product family, you could do this in a simple video where you would a. Say what the product is; b. Which problems does it solve; c. When is it launching; d. How can people get their hands on it. Keep it short, sweet and in tone with your brand\u2019s personality. If you\u2019re worried that you won\u2019t be able to make a decent quality video, we\u2019ll cover that later in the text, as promised above.\nIf your product takes a long time to launch, then do some teasing. So, you could do little teasers along the way and create some hype around the product even before it\u2019s even close to being introduced to the world. This way it won\u2019t seem to be MIA until the launch (since people really loooove consistency).\nPeople aren\u2019t buying the product, they\u2019re buying the solution to their problem. In other words, no one needs a drill, but many need a hole in their wall. So, putting up videos showing the ways your product can be used is a great way to go. And you don\u2019t need to be selling actual objects \u2013 same goes if you\u2019re making software, offering consulting services, writing content as a freelancer etc.\nIf you\u2019re throwing an event make sure it\u2019s live streamed. Don\u2019t worry, this doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you need to have 5 professional cameras on at any given moment. A simple Snapchat story or occasional live video check-ins on Instagram or Facebook will do the trick.\nSpeaking of live streams, they are a great tool you can use for occasional Q&A sessions. For example, if you see that your audience is interested in a certain topic or, perhaps, has some concerns, doing a live Q&A time will work like a charm. You\u2019ll be able to connect with the people on a personal level and put a human face to the brand, which always helps. For this, any of the aforementioned platforms could be used, or you could opt for Periscope which is extremely suitable for live interaction with people.\nIf you\u2019re looking to engage with the people on a level that\u2019s hyper-personal and shows extreme dedication, why not reply to a few tweets or comments on Facebook with a simple video? An impromptu clip made just for that person will make them feel super special, especially in a scenario where people are asking to see how your product looks, how big it is or something along those lines. Give it a whirl and let us know how it went!\nNow that we\u2019ve covered when and where videos can be used, let\u2019s focus on some tips and tricks that will help you make great videos with nothing more than your smartphone:\nMost smartphones nowadays can make HD videos. So make sure your resolution is set to 1080p. This is a setting that can be adjusted once and that\u2019s it.\nAlways always always film in landscape format versus portrait. It\u2019s how are eyes are set, that\u2019s what everyone prefers, and that\u2019s what just looks better.\nMake a tripod out of your body. To avoid shaky videos, put your phone in front of yourself like you would normally do, hold it with both of your hands while your elbows are resting on your stomach. This way the footage will be as stable as it can possibly be.\nTap your finger on the thing that you want to be in focus. Focus can also be changed while recording by simply tapping on whatever it is that you want to become the focus. This is again a standard feature of modern smartphones.\nIf you\u2019re not using external microphone, make sure you don\u2019t cover the one that\u2019s on your phone with your finger. This might sound trivial, but if it\u2019s overlooked it can destroy all your hard work.\nIf you\u2019re capturing an event, start with an establishing shot. That\u2019s a shot that tells the viewers where the video is set and what is going on. This could be followed with an audio or verbal explanation. For example, if you\u2019re covering an event, give the viewers an overlook of the venue and tell them what it is that they\u2019re watching. From that point, you can focus more on whatever is the main point of the video.\nYou can\u2019t film people without their permission. Make sure everyone knows they\u2019re being filmed and what will happen to the footage.\nIf you\u2019re shooting a how-to or checking in from an event or whatever it might be that you\u2019re filming, make sure you include your brand\u2019s logo in the video.\nIf you\u2019re not doing live stream don\u2019t put up raw material, take some time to edit your videos. The tools are much more intuitive and comprehensive than it might seem. If you\u2019re using your smartphone, try Adobe Premier Clip \u2013 a free user-friendly app available for both iOS and Android, that allows you to both edit the video as well as to add audio to it. It also comes with a computer-friendly version.\nThere you have it. We\u2019ve gone over quite a few tips and tricks that will help you get on track with the latest and greatest marketing trend for 2017. Much like any other form of content, being able to set aside notable budget is (sometimes) helpful, but it is by no means the only way it can be done.\nOne thought on \u201cHow to Make a Great Video on a Budget\u201d\nNicholas Soper says:\n\u201cAlways always always film in landscape format\u201d except when shooting Instagram stories, otherwise you\u2019ll have serious cropping on your hands.",

        "raw_content": "Could not resist passing along this comment from Connie, even though it included a reference to a rare football loss by my The Ohio State Buckeyes. Oklahoma played us tough and won and we have a tough schedule the rest of the way, headlined by Penn State. Until Connie mentioned it, I wasn't aware anyone played \"big boy\" foot ball in the Pacific Northwest :).\n\"I have to wonder, in your Crossport group, if there are any who could...go...all...the...way!\nSorry. It's the middle of college football season, and we happen to have, here in Washington, two of the thirteen teams that are thus far undefeated. Sorry for your loss. ;-)\nReally, though, based on your own experience, do you think you might be able to predict the future of a trans woman by getting to know her? I have known some who seemed to have jumped right out of the closet and into a full-blown transition. Then, there are others (more like myself) who had procrastinated for years before realizing that they were really transitioning all along, albeit very slowly. Knowing what I do now, I could have given myself some good advice years ago. That advice would probably be somewhere between diving straight in and dragging heels (pun, if you want it to be). I also wonder how much influence we might have toward someone else's decisions.\nI haven't attended a trans support group meeting for years. I came to the conclusion long ago that I can only offer my own experience as support, and there has been little support I can get for myself. I think that those with whom I may better relate are living their lives more as I do, so they don't attend those meetings, either. Cross dressers may admire me for my presentation, but I have actually experienced admonishment from the non-binary group for being too feminine. I find little value in participating in an often-patronizing mutual admiration society, nor do I relate to the often-confused gender fluid trans people.\nI think that I can read fairly well when a cross dresser is not interested in transitioning, even if they may have a fantasy of doing so. I know a couple who have gone into a transition by chasing the fantasy, only to find that they end up to be still a cross dresser - but with real boobs. One of those, I could have predicted as much, but I dared not give cautionary advice.\nI have felt for a long time that I have taken on a responsibility for others by being in my own transition, as we all should realize that it is not just ourselves, but everyone with whom we interact who transitions along with us. I can try to change hearts and minds better, then, through being a good example, I think.\nBack to the football analogy: I might just be punting on this. :-) \"\nYes, for sure I have met several cross dressers whom I thought were \"naturals\" for the change but for whatever reason never went through the process. Then there were the others who did it seemingly for the \"thrill\" and lived happily never-after. I always speculated they weren't really transgender down deep and should have stayed in cross dresser mode. Which would have been fine since they seemed happier.\nLabels: cross dresser, LGBT, trans, trans woman, transgender, transgender woman",

        "title": "Where Are the Highest Paying Cybersecurity Jobs? - Indeed Blog",
        "raw_content": "Where Are the Highest Paying Cybersecurity Jobs?\nNEW: For details on where you can find the highest paying cybersecurity jobs in 2018, check out this post.\nToday, cyber crime is a major concern for every type of business or government organization. A series of high-profile breaches has highlighted the apparent ease with which hackers can steal sensitive information \u2014 so it\u2019s little surprise that demand for cyber security professionals is rising. In fact, according to a recent analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics figures from Stanford University, demand is expected to grow by 53% through 2018.\nBut it\u2019s not easy to fill those roles. A recent survey from computer security conference Black Hat USA found that \u201cnearly 75% of security professionals say they do not have enough staff to defend their organizations against current threats.\u201d Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of cybersecurity jobs remain unfilled.\nThe combination of high demand plus low supply usually translates into high salaries for high skill workers \u2014 and as the many \u201cbest paid\u201d lists online make clear, cyber security can be a lucrative career. However, unless you adjust those salaries for cost of living, those lists can be misleading. How does this affect cyber security professionals? Let\u2019s take a look at the data.\nWhich is best for salaries \u2014 Washington DC or Salt Lake City?\nCyber security is a highly specialized field with dozens of job titles. For the purposes of this analysis, let\u2019s pick one: \u201cInformation security specialist.\u201d This is a role with many responsibilities, including the design, implementation, monitoring and testing of different types of cyber defense.\nAt first glance, information security specialists in Washington DC seem to be doing pretty well: On average, they make around $114,951 a year. By contrast, their peers in Salt Lake City make $105,889 a year. Therefore, an information security specialist who moves to DC from Salt Lake City is in line for an almost $10,000 pay bump \u2014 correct?\nWell, not exactly. The price of rent, tax, food, transportation and education all have a big impact on take-home pay, and after factoring in Washington DC\u2019s higher costs of living, the picture gets a little complex.\nConsider, for instance, just one of those measures: Rent. In June, the median rent on an apartment in Washington DC was $2,595 a month, eating up 27% of an information security specialist\u2019s monthly salary. In Salt Lake City, however, it was only $1,445 per month, which only takes up 16%.\nSo where does the security dollar stretch furthest?\nUS cities ranked for information security specialist salaries\nThe table below ranks the 15 cities in Indeed\u2019s list of popular tech job search destinations by the \u201creal\u201d value of an information security specialist\u2019s salary. The results are surprising, to say the least. In fact, once the numbers are adjusted for cost-of-living using data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), it turns out that the city with the best paid information security specialists is not a glamorous, west coast tech-hub but rather the midwestern city of Minneapolis.\nIn fact, with an adjusted average salary of $127,757, an information security specialist in Minneapolis makes 7% more in real terms than in closest competitor Seattle. Meanwhile, San Francisco, which places first when the numbers are left unadjusted, drops to third position.\nOn closer inspection this result may not be so strange, however. After all, Minneapolis is home to the headquarters of retail giant Target, which in 2013 suffered one of the most publicized security breach in recent years. Following this, the firm publicized its hiring of a highly regarded cyber security leader from GM. Perhaps Target\u2019s other post-breach efforts at incentivizing top security talent to work at its headquarters are reflected in this result as other firms in the area will have had to compete.\nStrikingly, New York only places ninth \u2014 despite its giant finance sector which is highly attractive to cyber criminals, employers there are doing less to incentivize talent than in Salt Lake City, which is home to far fewer banks. Meanwhile, San Jose, the unofficial capital of Silicon Valley performs even less well, coming in tenth.\nHowever, the lowest-paying city on our list is Arlington, VA \u2014 home of the Pentagon. Here, an information security specialist\u2019s salary once adjusted is 72% lower than in Minneapolis. Arlington\u2019s low ranking, coupled with Washington DC\u2019s 12th place, makes it clear that government IT security jobs are considerably less lucrative than those in the private sector.\nWhat this means for employers \u2014 and job seekers\nWith demand for cyber security skills outstripping supply, wages are likely to remain high in this discipline for a long time. For job seekers with tech skills, this makes it an attractive career, although they should be aware that it\u2019s not a career you can just walk into. Despite the talent shortage, many employers are looking not only for skills and experience, but also certifications.\nAs for employers, this analysis demonstrates that finding the right incentives to attract top talent is no simple matter. With ever more salary data available online, cyber security professionals know their worth. Meanwhile, highly mobile tech talent, or tech talent interested in flexible working arrangements, will be looking not only at how much a person with their skills makes in their immediate vicinity but across different metro areas. Thus, performing a cost of living analysis can help you make your jobs more competitive.\nTo learn more about how location affects the tech job market, download the Indeed Hiring Lab report Beyond the Talent Shortage.\n\u00ab When Data Drives Transformation: Insights from 3 Talent Leaders How 3 Companies Use Mission and Purpose to Inspire Top Talent \u00bb",

Huh? Old is all in your point of view.\nMichael Tilson Thomas understands his Mahler. I'm not sure I do. Susan Graham sang a very fine set of the R\u00fcckert Lieder. This part of the concert was being recorded. They scrambled the order so both of the sad songs came at the end. \"Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen\" is probably Mahler's finest song, and they performed it beautifully. I think I prefer the set to end with this instead of \"Um Mitternacht.\"\nThe audience loved Symphony Number 1. People around me raved that it was the best performance of Number 1 ever. The crowd stood and shouted like they were at a football game. I probably had never heard it before and thought it was a piece of crap. Don't get me wrong. I like Mahler and I think Tilson Thomas is a great conductor of him. It's a bit too episodic for me.

        "title": "FAQ: Should I install the 32bit or 64bit version of Windows 7?",
        "raw_content": "FAQ: Should I install the 32bit or 64bit version of Windows 7?\n\u2026 or, indeed, on a system with modern 64bit-capable processor(s) is it better to run the 32bit or 64bit version of any given OS?\nFirstly, a technical aside to help frame the issues:\nWhat does it mean to run in 64bit mode, how does this help, and how is Intel\u2019s x86 architecture different?\nI\u2019ll start this article with a quick look at a processor which most people won\u2019t have heard of, and an OS that almost no-one will ever have used. Bear with me \ud83d\ude09\nThe MIPS range of RISC microprocessors was launched in 1985 with the R2000, and went 64bit in 1991 with the R4000. These processors were used in many embedded and workstation environments, powering the Nintendo 64, the Sony Playstation, Playstation 2, and PSP in addition to SGI workstations and supercomputers. These days, it is one of the most popular CPUs for use in gadgets and mobile devices due to it\u2019s flexibility and low power requirements. Read more about it here.\nIRIX is SGI\u2019s workstation and supercomputer OS. Release 6.0 in 1994 first added support for 64bit processors running in 64bit mode. The interesting thing is how SGI approached this. Being a well-designed RISC architecture (and in common with many other processor architectures, such as Power(PC) and SPARC) running a MIPS CPU in 64bit mode only results in additional range for (long) integer and floating-point variables, and access to more than 4GiB of address space. However, this is at the cost of decreased system performance since pointers are twice the width. Because of this often dubious benefit, IRIX consists of a 64bit kernel alongside a predominantly 32bit userland. This results in the system being entirely 64bit capable, but retaining the efficiency of 32bit code wherever possible. And, for this architecture, this is exactly the right way to do things.\nWe\u2019ll now turn our attention back to PCs powered by Intel\u2019s x86 architecture. In this case, there are a number of complications to muddy the waters. Primarily, the x86 ISA is severely register-starved, with only 8 registers of 16 in total being available for general-purpose usage (although a common option is to forego the ability to debug code by using the stack-pointer register as an additional general-purpose register). Compare this to the 32 general-purpose registers available on MIPS processors from inception, or the 128 general-purpose registers of the Intel Itanium/IA64. The x86-64/AMD64 ISA redresses this somewhat by increasing the number of general-purpose registers to 16, allowing applications to run considerably more efficiently \u2013 balancing much of the negative effect of the wider data transfers.\nIn addition to this, the vast majority of people are not aware of the impact of enabling No-Execute protection in their OS: The NX bit is stored as bit 63 of a 64bit-wide page-table. This means that PAE-mode must be enabled on 32bit processors to expand their page-table width to the 64bits required in order that this bit be accessible. 32bit x86 processors in PAE mode always run significantly slower than in non-PAE mode, as memory lookups have to go through several additional layers of translation and on-processor caches lose half their capacity. Since Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP SP2, Windows automatically enables NX (named \u201cDEP\u201d, or \u201cData Execution Prevention\u201d) on all hardware that is capable of supporting it.\nFinally, bear in mind that all PCI devices (including PCIe and AGP peripherals) are mapped on top of main memory from 4GiB downwards on 32bit systems, rendering any overlaid physical memory inaccessible. As long as machines with more than 2GB memory weren\u2019t common this was not an issue \u2013 but nowadays you can purchase graphics cards with 2Gb memory on-board: in this case, a 4GB system with one of these cards installed would have less than 1.9GB available for actual usage. A system with two such cards would likely not even boot.\nEnough with the background, should I run a 64bit OS or not?\nOn 32bit x86 architectures, you\u2019ll probably already be living with the limitations of 64bit mode without realising it: Whilst running in 64bit mode does slow memory access and computations involving wide values, the efficiencies of having more registers and simplified paths to memory (with NX still enabled) actually make 64bit operation a preferable choice. The fact that PCI memory remapping means that a full 4Gb of memory can be accessed on a 4Gb system is the coup de gr\u00e2ce \u2013 I\u2019d suggest that anyone with a reasonable modern system should be running a 64bit OS, if at all possible.\n(And yes, 32bit applications continue to work transparently and without modification on 64bit OS, in 32bit-emulation mode)\nInteresting & geeky stuff on YouTube\t\u201cStop, you\u2019re only making it worse\u2026\u201d",

I'm going to start calling hotels and making sure the bookings are solid as well, just to calm my nerves.\nWe're doing a tour-de-force. Before going to Africa, we are making a stop in Dubai (it's cheaper going London->Dubai->Nairobi, so we thought we would take advantage of it). It's going to likely be above body temperature outside there, though, so it's going to be interesting, but I don't think we're exactly going to be beach bunnies for that part.\nWe're taking an extra day in Nairobi, Kenya, to get acclimatized to Africa. This is their winter time (I don't have an immediate explanation as to why, since Kenya has the equator going through it) and the temperatures are actually supposed to be quite comfortable. Cooler than our summer typically is. (Take a look at the forecast)\nWe're going through quite a bit of Uganda for the first part of the trip. Reason being that the gorillas are in the southwest tip of Uganda. (For those keeping track of the geography, Uganda is to the west of Kenya, and Kenya is totally on the east coast of Africa, below Sudan and Somalia) Lake Victoria is partly in Uganda, and we'll be spending some time there as well.\nWe do a little bit of Kenya and a fair bit of Tanzania (to the south of Kenya), seeing things like the Ngorongoro Crater (you should see the crater using Google Earth - it's quite an amazing big circle from orbit), and the Serengeti, passing by (but not climbing) Kilimanjaro. (Odd bit of trivia: mlima = mountain in Swahili, kilima = hill - I guess it's like calling a big guy \"tiny\" :) )\nWe spend some time on Zanzibar, the Spice Island (not to be confused with the Spice Islands of Marco Polo and pirate fame in Indonesia) and in particular in Stone Town, which is a leftover from the ruling days of the Sultanate of Oman on this island.\nOught to be spectacular!\nI'm going to have to get another memory card and battery for my camera, I think.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Issues and Trends \u00bb UU Military: Equality Under Fire\nUU Military: Equality Under Fire\nPosted by T. Resnikoff // February 22nd 2013 // Issues and Trends, soundings, Stories and Voices, young adults // no comments\n\u201cThe military is widely understood to be the most racially, ethnically, and religiously diverse institution in the U.S.\u201d, notes The Rev. Sarah Lammert, director of Ministries and Faith Development for the Unitarian Universalist Association, and president-elect of the National Conference of Ministry to the Armed Forces. The relationship between the United States military and Unitarian Universalism has not always been an easy one, and continues to evolve. Lammert believes there\u2019s a direct connection between the lack of UU chaplains and the lack of support that people in uniform felt during and after the Vietnam War, but she adds that, \u201cPeople began to understand that you could be for or against a war without being against the people who serve the country.\u201d The UUA administration took particular steps to make veterans, and especially chaplains, feel welcome, including establishing a Committee on Military Ministry and creating a clearly defined path to gaining endorsement as a UU chaplain.\nThe Church of the Larger Fellowship began during World War II, as a way for Unitarian Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines to stay connected to their faith while they were serving overseas (visit CLFUU), and although there are currently but a handful of UU Military chaplains, there are many militarily affiliated Unitarian Universalists \u2013 someone who identifies as a Unitarian Universalist and is a military service member, a military spouse, a military veteran, a military family-member, a Department of Defense employee, a military contractor, or the friend of any of these who wishes to build community with other military-affiliated Unitarian Universalists. David Pyle, 1LT, USAR Chaplain Candidate, MOD Minister, Great Lakes Military Ministry, writes, \u201cThough Unitarian Universalists may disagree on issues of war and peace, our faith supports all of those who serve, who have served, and their families\u201d(1).\nEQUAL BEFORE RANK\nThe United States military has struggled to overcome its history of inequitable treatment of service people. The following is a time-line of reforms:\nRACE. The march to equality started with Executive Order 9981, when President Harry S. Truman desegregated the military on July 26, 1948 (2).\nSEXUAL-ORIENTATION. In 1993 President Bill Clinton introduced the policy of \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell\u201c, prohibiting military personnel from discriminating against or harassing homosexual or bisexual service members or applicants but requiring service members not to divulge their sexual orientation and to remain closeted. In July, 2011, President Obama certified repeal (definition here) of \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell\u201d, allowing LGBTQ members of the military to openly affirm their sexual identity while in military service(3). Defense Secretary Leon Panetta recently called for same-sex couples to enjoy spousal benefits (see this companion story on Blue Boat for details). Still, pending the U.S Supreme Court ruling on the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) later this year, \u201c\u2026 on-base housing, medical benefits, visa assistance, burial in veterans\u2019 cemeteries and other significant benefits will still be off-limits\u201d(4).\nGENDER DISCRIMINATION. Because of a longstanding American Department of Defense policy women until recently were restricted from occupying more than 220,000 positions in the United States military (5), this despite women serving support roles in combat situations. One outcome of this ban is that women are promoted to leadership positions in the military far less often than are men. Military women also tend to be paid less than their male counter-parts (6). Outgoing Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta announced an end to the ban on women in direct combat positions and instituted a program of review to be completed by 2016 to identify \u201cexceptions\u201d: combat roles women still will not be allowed to perform for clear physical or physiological reasons (7). This announcement creates greater equity and equality by declaring that women service members are apt for combat duty, and putting the onus on the military to justify on a job-by-job basis when a woman is not allowed to fill a specific role. Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), one of two female veterans in Congress, commented, \u201c\u201cIt makes them (women) more competitive for promotions. Most people don\u2019t get to become a general without a combat campaign.\u201d(Read her full comments on Politico here.)

        "raw_content": "Written by: Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse\nStaring: Stephan James, Jason Sudeikis, and Shanice Banton\nMusic by: Rachel Portman\nCinematography by: Peter Levy\nGenre: Biography, Drama, and Sports\nAn Olympic athlete proves to the world that he is more than just the color of his skin. Jesse Owens must be true to his community, country, but most importantly his family and himself in this remarkable movie.\nLet\u2019s start off this Race movie review with a very obvious thing that I missed until about two days after I saw the film. The title, \u201cRace\u201d, stands for two thing. The first more obvious meaning is the Olympic race that Jesse Owens competes in. The slightly less obvious meaning is the racial meaning. Most of the movie revolves around whether or not the United States, and later on Jesse Owens, will compete in the 1936 German hosted Olympics. The main reason for this conflict is that Hitler and the Nazi party had been in power for almost three years at this point in time and they were starting their anti-Semitic and discriminatory practices. The United States Olympic committee did not want to send their representatives as a sign of protest of the treatment of citizens of Germany. Once they narrowly decided to send their athletes to the Olympics Jesse Owens is faced with a choice to boycott to show his solidarity for the oppressed citizens of Germany, or does he run in the race of his life.\nMy favorite part of this picture is the fair representation of Jesse Owens\u2019s life, especially his relationship with his wife. For those of you that don\u2019t know Jesse Owens had a kid out of wedlock with his high school sweetheart. In the start of the movie he shows how much he cares about his child since he is giving his future wife all the money he could spare, at times even missing his track and field practice. Later on in the movie Jesse Owens is shown letting his newfound fame go to his head, partying and dancing with another woman, which of course his future wife found out about (even without Facebook). In the end he does everything to prove to his future wife that he wanted to be with her. I honestly was not expecting a compelling, albeit simple, from a biographical sports picture. I admire this feature for idolizing Jesse in a fair light, which many \u201cbased on a true story\u201d or biographical pieces seem to not do.\nI would rate this movie 7.5/10 since it had a clear message, above average visuals, but a basic story line which is partially limited due to being very historically accurate.\n\u2605 \u2605 \u2605 \u2605 \u2605 \u2605 \u2605 \u00bd\nI would highly recommend this movie to everyone due to the historical importance, unbiased storytelling, and inspirational value.

        "raw_content": "Former US General talks about cyber weapons\nFormer No. 2 uniformed officer in the U.S. military claims that the United States should be developing offensive cyber weapons so that they could use it whenever some foreigners hack their computer.\nFour-star Marine Corps general who retired in August as the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, James Wright says that the US must be open to developing cyber weapons since they got the capabilities. The US must also train people in order to make them credible of fighting this online threat so that the world will know that hacking is criminally liable, and the US will do something about it.\nCartwright, raised the profile of cyber security problem at a time when he was still in uniform, told Reuters in an interview that the rising intensity and occurrence of network attacks by hackers highlighted the need for an effective restriction.\nCurrent and former U.S. officials did not want to talk about any weapons. However, it is widely accepted that the United has both offensive and defensive ways to respond to escalating and increasingly detrimental attacks from overseas.\nTo underscore the threat, this week an arm of the U.S. intelligence community announced a report that identifies China and Russia as the most active and determined nations, which uses cyber espionage in stealing U.S. trade and technology secrets.\nCartwright said that there is a need to send a strong signal to potential adversaries that the United States viewed that respond to cyber attacks as its \u201cright to self-defense,\u201d even if hackers were using a server in a third country.\nHe said that they\u2019ve got to get do it, since all is a free shot at them and there\u2019s no penalty for it.\nHis comments come as the Obama administration discusses the rules of engagement for cyberspace, now seen as a fifth domain for military operations that join air, land, sea and space.\nAt an earlier time, this year, the White House issued a new cyber strategy that once warranted, the United States would take action to hostile acts in cyberspace as it would to any other threat to their country.\nNow the military must work out exactly a way to implement that. Key questions include how forthright Washington is going to be about work on offensive computer network attack weapons; what would signify an act of war; and ready plans for training, testing and using of its electronic arsenal.\nRecent attacks on U.S. corporations include Google Inc, the Nasdaq stock exchange, Lockheed Martin Corp, and RSA, the security division of EMC Corp, have given government officials and lawmakers a new sense of urgency regarding how are they going to address threats to U.S. computer networks.\nTagged as : Cyber Security, Cyber-Attack, James Wright, online threats, Web Security",

After downloading the hefty 120Mb installer and setting myself up, I embarked on the first steps of an adventure that would turn out to be a bittersweet experience. Many hundreds of foes, numerous puzzles, and too many restored saved games to mention later, I have completed the game. I do have that contented and satisfying feeling that comes with clearing a game of this type (or clicking the last piece of an enormous jigsaw puzzle into place). However, there is also a lingering feeling that the game was not all that it could or should have been given the obvious creative talent of the folks that developed the game at EDI.\nNow, I don't want to give too much of the plot away, but the in-game story revolves around the crown princess of the Leowyn people. Princess Morning must come to terms with her destiny through an agonising turn of events. These will see her defend her subjects from the cruel hand of Rhajad Rhul, the general of the arch-enemy Ashidian army.\nAlthough Morning's Wrath may at first seem similar to a dungeon hack in the likes of Diablo, with its isometric top-down camera angle, there are a few things that set it apart in the gameplay catagory that are significant. Firstly, the game contains no randomly generated areas. Enemies when slain do not drop treasure or items. Instead, there are various items that Morning can equip scattered around the environs. Morning can pick up and use magical amulets, rings, headwear and bracelets only. Her armour and weaponry will remain the same through the entire game. The game progression relies very heavily on puzzle solving; generally using items aquired in one area of the game brought to another for a specific purpose. There are also logic and word puzzles as well as one to test your musical prowess (or tone deafness, in my case.)\nCombat is handled by using your sword in melee or by unleashing pre-learned magic spells upon your foes. One of the most frustrating things in Morning's Wrath is trying to click on a moving enemy, often when moving yourself to engage in melee combat. There is zero margin for error, and that, coupled with some bizzare path-finding routines, all too often see Morning and the enemies doing a frenzied dance of death around each other for some time before a blow is landed. The poor path-finding also becomes an issue when Morning has to negotiate obstacles such as furniture. She will duck in and out of all sorts of nooks and crannies rather than take a straight line to her target.\nThe magic system is quite novel. The player is awarded 'runes' at key points in the game. These runes are either an element, (such as fire, static, caustic or ion) or a form (like radiation, wave, engulf or arrow). The player creates spells by mixing runes together as desired, and then commiting the spell to memory. Here's a picture of me casting a devastating 'flare engulf magnet'.\nAlthough the combinations are numerous, there does not seem to be any advantage to using one element over any other in terms of monster resistances that I can tell. The later 'form' runes are more devastating than the earlier awarded ones. Only one element in any spell is permitted but as many forms as desired can be used to create some cool looking effects. Magic is your friend; a very powerful tool, especially in the early stages of the game when Morning is still weak. Alas, some of the most feared enemies that our heroine will face are the magic wielding Ancient Warlocks and Ashidian War-Mages.\nWhich leads me to another gripe. It's much too easy to be killed by an enemy that is way out of depth for Morning at almost all but the final stages of her development. Just one stray magical bolt from a warlock can take most or all of Morning's life points in one hit. At the worst of it in the early game I was saving and restoring from saves so often that it was not fun.\nOnce enemies are killed they will respawn after a certain amount of time. This is not a bad feature since it allows Morning to gain experience on the weaker enemies until she is ready to take on the more fearsome foes. One strategy that I employed was to scout ahead for the spawning points of strong enemies and after being killed (or on the odd occasion running away) would just avoid that location entirely until Morning was strong enough to take the fight to them. Towards the end game though, the Princess becomes a bit of a tank, and by the late game there's not much that can hurt her, with the exception of the final confrontation. Again I won't spoil it for you, but you will want to make liberal use of the unlimited save feature both just before and maybe even during the fracas.\nGraphically, Morning's Wrath is not going to sweep an indie games award ceremony for best visuals in 2006. The world is pleasingly rendered in smooth 2-D and sprites are the name of the game. There are some real time lighting effects which do make the experience more realistic, especially the magic fights. When Morning steps behind a wall, transparency kicks in to allow you to pick up hidden items since the camera can not be rotated. This works well most of the time, but I found that in some instances, such as when navigating a tight maze, movement (specifically, trying to find a tile to click on) was a little confusing.\nWithout a doubt the soundtrack is a high point for this game. The score is classical in style, moody, beautifully presented and adds a great deal to the atmoshere of the dank underworld and in-castle battles. The tracks are numerous and samples of the in-game music are available to listen to on the games website. Sound effects do their job and include some nice ambient noises. Morning's Wrath is not a bad game, but these days RPGs have to offer more than what it does to stand out from the crowd. I managed to solve all but a couple of the puzzles, and by the way, it is not mandatory to solve all of them to finish the game. The difficulty level of the puzzles was not overbearingly tricky, but I did have to think to solve a few of them and that did increase the satisfaction on completion of the game. Due to the non-randomised content, (about 12+ hours of gameplay) and puzzles only being a challenge the first run through, I'm afraid that there is not a great deal of replay value here. I would be lying if I said that I didn't enjoy playing through Morning's Wrath, and if you're looking for a RPG/puzzler, then you could do a lot worse for $19.95. Even better, fork out an extra $10 and get the game on CD with some very professionally laser printed artwork on the DVD case and disk (some of the best I've seen as an indie offering) as well as a handy quick reference sheet. This is only the first title from EDI games and I'm convinced the best is yet to come. Here at Bytten, we can't wait to see what they'll come up with next.\nKeywords: morning's wrath review, edi games reviews, edi games games, morning's wrath scores, pc game reviews, indie game reviews, independent gaming.",

        "title": "Two migrants die on boat left adrift by Libyan coast guard - Cairo Herald",
        "raw_content": "Home North Africa Libya\nA woman and a boy adrift in the Mediterranean died just hours before help reached their damaged dinghy, Spanish rescuers said on Tuesday after finding a second woman alive in the vessel, which had been carrying migrants towards Europe.\nA rescue boat operated by the Spanish charity Proactiva Open Arms, with a Reuters photographer aboard, went to help the three migrants, stranded about 80 nautical miles off Libya\u2019s coast, but found two already dead.\nProactiva Open Arms said the three were left helpless after being abandoned by Libyan coast guards. The Libyans had left the scene after the two women refused to board their patrol ship along with a boy of about four, it said.\nLibya\u2019s coast guard disputed the account, saying it had rescued 165 migrants from the damaged boat, and recovered the body of one baby. But it offered no explanation for how the three migrants came to be stranded on the remains of the dinghy.\n\u201cIt is not in our religion, our ethics or our conduct to abandon human lives at sea, where we only came to save them,\u201d it said in a statement. The migrants were sunburnt and dehydrated after spending more than 60 hours stranded at sea, it said.\nProactiva Open Arms operates in the deadly central Mediterranean route, where charity boats have been locked out of Italian ports since a vow by Italy\u2019s new populist government to crack down on illegal immigration from Libya.\nThe rescue ship found itself the focus of European political tension this month when it rescued 60 migrants and took them to Barcelona after being turned away by Malta and Italy.\nCharity rescuers pulled the woman from the wreckage where she had lain beside the corpses of another woman and the young boy. One rescuer dived into the sea and grabbed her as she clung to the remains of the boat.\n\u201cWhen we arrived we found one of the women still alive. We could do nothing to save the other woman and the boy who appeared to have died a few hours before we found them,\u201d said Proactiva Open Arms founder Oscar Camps in a tweet.\nProactiva said the coast guard had intercepted the dinghy, but when it became clear the two women and the boy did not want to board the coast guard vessel, the Libyans damaged the craft and left the three stranded in its remains.\nCamps told Reuters TV: \u201cI want to denounce \u2026. the Libyan coast guard that did not know how to manage an emergency situation, arriving two days, two nights late, and abandoned two women and a child in the remains of a vessel that they themselves destroyed.\u201d\nCamps said a merchant ship sailing in the area had also failed to provide help to the migrant dinghy.\nIn a criticism of Italy, he added: \u201cThis is the direct consequence of not allowing NGOs which rescue lives in the Mediterranean to work there; this is the consequence.\u201d\nItalian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, also the head of the far-right League, is leading a high-profile campaign to shut humanitarian ships out of Italian ports. He says any rescue operations off the Libyan coast should be handled by Libya\u2019s limited coast guard.\nOn Tuesday, Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte hit back at Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis, who on Saturday called the Italian approach to immigration a \u201croad to hell\u201d, and reiterated his stance that boats should be turned back and migrants helped in their home countries instead of being let into the European Union.\nIn an open letter to Babis, whose country refused to take any of the 450 migrants rescued by Italy at the weekend, Conte said Rome had the \u201chigh road of legality and shared responsibility\u201d, adding \u201cthose who set foot in a European country set foot in Europe\u201d.\nRome has played a central role in training the Libyan coast guard, which has been accused of abuses, including shooting at aid workers trying to rescue migrants.\nIllegal immigration across the Mediterranean has fallen dramatically, with about 50,000 people making it to Europe this year compared to over a million in 2015. Hundreds have nevertheless died trying to make the crossing from Libya.\nTags: EuropeLibyaMediterraneanNGO ProactivaOscar Camps",

        "raw_content": "Bridge the Gap International Tour Grant\nThe Canadian Rugby Foundation is introducing a new program to promote the transition of high school players to club and university rugby programs through International rugby tours.\nOur desire is to ensure that the unique and transformative experience of international touring is made available to more players of this critical age group without regard for financial circumstances. We believe that this will address one of the pressing issues in Canadian Rugby, namely the lack of transition between high school and senior rugby for all but the small minority of players. Many players can attest to the life-changing experience of an international rugby tour against quality opposition.\nAccordingly we have instituted a grant program whereby touring teams that are sanctioned by the appropriate governing bodies and Rugby Canada will be considered for a grant in the maximum amount of either one-half the tour cost or $30,000 whichever is the lesser.\nApplicants must demonstrate the tour is open to all players regardless of financial circumstances, and is regionally oriented \u200e whether by City, Province or Region and in addition that the proposed tour is well backed financially.\nGrants will be considered for any regional teams, regional meaning at least provincial, and that past grants to regions may be considered in deciding which region(s) to support in the current year. However the final decision will rest with the committee and preference may be given to proposals that demonstrate a high need and those that emphasize the development of players as potential future leaders of rugby not only as potential elite players but also through refereeing, administration or coaching.\nMore than one grant may be considered in one year and applicants should feel free to apply at any time. Consideration will also be given to those organizations that show a commitment to the endeavours of the Canadian Rugby Foundation.\nThe final decision will be made by the Canadian Rugby Foundation committee which will include regional representatives from time to time.\nHans DeGoede and Mike Holmes Committee Chairs.",

        "raw_content": "And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 1 John 5:14\nAnd when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words. So do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. Pray, then, in this way: \"Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.\" Matthew 6:7-13\nThe king of a kingdom reigns over the subjects of his kingdom. They are entirely subject to the king's desires and purposes and therefore they exist to serve the king and his kingdom. On the other hand, however, the king takes care of his subjects if he is the good and benevolent king he should be. Of course God is our king and he is supremely good and benevolent. We exist to serve our king and his kingdom. Like the subjects of any king we can come before him with our requests. We are confident he will hear what we ask and will be responsive. The Lord's prayer switches to the Father/child analogy. Good subjects of the king or devoted children of their fathers have requests to make. The key is always to ask for things that are pleasing to the one being asked. We are growing in our grasp of how prayer is about both \"relationship\" and \"requests.\" The fuller our relationship with God becomes the more we get to know what he is like, what he desires, and how he is at work in the world. The result will be that our requests will more and more be aligned with God and his kingdom purposes and this will please him greatly.\nFather, we confess that we often pray in ways that are all about us and what we want. Align us with you and your ways and purposes more fully than ever before. Help us not to be afraid to ask but help us to keep changing so that more and more that which we ask you for is pleasing to you. Thank you, Lord, for your amazing patience and love. We are grateful for the priviledge of living for you and your kingdom.",

        "raw_content": "In the early 20's a man was born named Earl Russel Smith Jr. He lived through the depression, went into the military to fight in WWII and came out unscathed. He loved his wife, kids, and the Redskins. All told he had jobs as a pilot, boxer, military police officer, and IRS Agent. He lived a strict life style and if you asked, most people would call him one tough S.O.B.\nTo me though, he was Pop-pop. He is the one who challenged me to eat as many strawberry shortcakes as I could at Country Cooking. He would give me bananas or black jelly beans because they made my hyper. He drove from VA to FL to help restore order to my life when my parents divorced. He gave me helpful advice on things such as football,cars, girls, and marriage.\nA couple years ago when my grandmother passed away, it shook my grandfather to the core. He spent the last couple of years just waiting to rejoin her. He would say that grandmother needed him to accomplish some things first before he could see her. I guess he finally finished the list. Last night he passed away.\nLosing a loved one is tough. Pop-pop was given 6 months to live due to his kidneys starting to fail. So I had opportunities to see him and tell him I loved him. This weekend Shayna and I were going to go down and visit him. Looks like we still are, just in a different way than we expected.\nOff in the distance there is a slight sound. It can barely be heard, but it's the sound of drums. Indian war drums. That's my Pop-pop..pissing off Cowboy fans.\nLeann 9:09 AM\nThat was beautiful, Carl. I know you had a special relationship with your grandfather. I'm sorry to hear about your his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.\noh my gosh carl... i am so sorry. i know he meant a lot to you. please know that you, shayna, and your family are in our prayers.\nCarl, I am so sorry.

        "raw_content": "On Friday I finished up at my day job. I'd been working in that role for eight years, minus about a year and a half when I did two or three other jobs and then returned. I knew it inside out - the processes especially. But in recent months, I felt less connected to the people - not through my own doing, but because of the processes. It became less personal. I felt like I'd progressed so far in all other areas of my life, just not in my day job.\nThe more things changed around me, the more I realised I need to make my own change. And so I did. My calling is the writing and advocacy, but it doesn't put food on the table, nor pay for weddings and holidays. I still need a day job. I sought change by applying for a new day job. I was successful and I start today.\nI'm nervous and excited. Nostalgic. Relieved. My days will be filled with new things to learn, bigger responsibilities, new people to get to know. All still unbloggable.\nAs my colleagues and I said goodbye on Friday, I felt very loved. I think I did ok in my last organisation. I've got friends everywhere, one of my managers told me. One of my biggest skills is connecting people - and in 12.5 years at that organisation, I'd certainly done that.\nThe new of today will soon become routine. I'll adjust and come to know the role inside out. And that's ok because I've made my own change.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Why some people prefer video poker to other forms?\nThe best brand in watches: Rolex \u00bb\nHosting a proper dinner party is not an easy job and if it is for a hundred guests or more, then it requires proper planning and estimates. The first thing to remember while planning such a huge party is to select a proper theme for the party. This way, you will be able to create the perfect ambience and choose the proper food menu according to the event\u2019s theme. Another important thing about choosing the theme is that you will have an idea about the location as well.\nThe theme of the party will decide a lot of factors for you. The theme will decide if it is going to be an indoor party or an outdoor one. Now, if it is an indoor dinner party for a hundred guests or more, then you must decide if you need to rent any special hall. Again, you will be able to accommodate the same in your own home. An indoor dinner party for hundred guests means that you would require proper seating arrangements. There should be enough space besides the tables so that the guests can comfortably move around and enjoy the party properly.\nAn outdoor garden dinner party, on the other hand, will relieve you of the space constraints drastically. You can make arrangements inside as well as outside in the garden. If your garden is large enough to accommodate a hundred guests, then you can easily organize the party there. However, in such a case you will have to ensure proper lighting and decoration to ensure that your party looks lively and reflects the theme properly.\nAfter you choose the theme of your dinner party, the other thing that you need to decide is the date, when you are going to have this party. The date should be such that most of your guests are comfortable with it or else you might end up with a no show dinner party. After these two important steps and once you have sent out the invitations to your guests, the next thing that you should do is sit down and plan your menu for the party. Your dinner party will only be a success, if you are able plan the proper menu for the evening.\nFrom appetizers to main course to desserts, you will have to keep a keen eye on the details for the party. You must have a good knowledge about the tastes of your guests, what they like or dislike in general and if some of your guests are allergic towards some ingredients or not. It is always better to keep some alternative dishes just in case there are conflicts of health or cultural issues regarding food.\nLast but not the least; you will have to take care of the issue regarding entertainment and music as well to liven up the ambience of the dinner party. Depending on the theme, it could be a music band, a string quartet or a DJ. However, the music has to be there for the evening. If you keep in mind all these details, then surely you will be able to organize a perfect dinner party for hundred guests.\nThis entry was posted on Monday, September 20th, 2010 at 03:40\tand is filed under Dinner, drinks and desserts.

        "raw_content": "Written on one of those post-college-essay-writing nights when I had nothing better to do\nbut to fall asleep and wake up in time for Physics class...\nThe Odes:\nOde 1: Ode to My Dad\nOde 2: Ode to Dr. Kolena\nOde 3: Ode to Dr. Manring\nOde 4: Ode to Dr. Winters\nOde 5: Ode to Dr. Winters, part 2\nOde 7: Ode...(well, you know the rest)\nOde 8: Dad, please don't kill me for saying this...\nOde 9: Ode to Dr. Miller, in a way...\nOde 10: An Ode to Conclusions\nIf you are reading this, then it probably means that I've kicked the bucket. I decided to write a will and summary of my life in the event that I lose the opportunity to share with my family and closest friends things I have always wanted to share with them, but never had or could. The last thing I would want is for you to grieve over me, so stop that right now, and read what I have to say.\nI only hope that I have died in the pursuit of knowledge or in helping another person through life; if my death didn't turn out that way, oh well, that's life. I suppose I hate death for not having allowed me the chance to make something better of this world, in whatever small way I could have. I hate death for not having allowed me the chance to spend more time with the people whom I care about. I hate death for not allowing me to live life in the way I would have liked to. Most of all, however, I hate death because now I am gone, and those I have left behind will now grieve much more than I am grieving now, if I could, of course.\nWhat is death but a transition of life? If it were not for death, there could be no life on this world. The individual dies, but the species continues on, as I learned from Mrs. Brinson's Environmental Science class--I have every confidence that the world will continue to become a better place regardless if I am able to see it or not. Those that I have been privileged to know are of such capability and honor that the progress of knowledge is ensured upon this earth; I only feel disappointed because I could not have contributed to this great endeavor of my family and friends.\nDad, I know you're a strong man--you've always been a strong man. No one on earth can sway your thoughts once they are set; your heart is fixed and steady, yet it is not made of stone. You feel deeply for me, and I know that now, as you are hearing these words, your eyes and soul have become loose and liquid. If I am somehow able to exist after death through the unknown fundamental workings and physics of the universe, the last thing you would want is for me to see you in tears. Be a man--big boys don't cry, remember? I have always seen life as a journey, a hidden path waiting to be uncovered, and although I did not get the chance to uncover as much as I would have wanted, I am happy with what I have done. I know that you feel the same way, too. I love you, and I wish you to be more open to the liveliness and joy of being alive--life is an adventure. As my English teacher, Dr. Miller, once said, tempus fugits, and because tempus fugits, we have to carpe the diem, and we have to carpe the diem because each of us mementos the mori. Time flies, and because time flies we have to seize the day, because we remember that someday, each of us will die. I wish you peace and all my love, and that you will live long to cherish the new and ever-advancing world that I have wanted to, but for some reason (and I wonder what that may be) will never see.\nFor the past two years, I have attended the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, and I have understood that during this time, my life here has been somewhat of a mystery to my family. Besides the informative report cards and the regular newsletters that are sent home, my dad, and therefore my family, knows little about how my life here has greatly changed who I am. For the first time, I have truly seen the world. I have been given the opportunity to meet people who have done the things I have always wanted to do, but could not yet do. I have been surrounded by some of the most intelligent, spirited, and enthusiastic persons I have ever known, who have reminded me to always keep an open mind and to never cease learning. If I never attended this school, I cannot imagine the type of person I would have (or would not have) become.\nOde to Dr. Kolena\nDr. Kolena, you only knew me for a little while and I never did anything special in your class, so my absence probably will not bother you much (hopefully). You are both the butt of NCSSM jokes and one of the persons I have come to most respect in my life--you taught me to be serious about physics and even more, by having to leave your class, you only taught me to seize physics with an even greater vengeance. My performance in Dr. Manring's class during my junior year was primarily due to my refusal to quit--I loved and will always love physics, and nothing could have prevented me from continuing my study in this field. There should be a Kolena in every school--people might learn to have more of a respect for science, especially Astro. Astronomy was what drew me to science so long ago, but I didn't think both Astro and A-Mod would fit into my schedule my senior year. If I had the chance, I certainly would have taken such a class in college. I've tried to do my best in physics, Dr. Kolena, and hopefully to you, I didn't fail life this time. I think this time, it has become the other way around.\nOde to Dr. Manring\nDr. Manring, you have taught my first real physics course and have shown me the wonders of the physical world. You made forces on springs and balls come alive, and have always had time to answer my many questions. There was hardly a day in my junior year when my dad didn't hear of all the things I learned in your physics class, and there was hardly a day when he heard much else. In you I see experience and a true love of knowledge; if I ever could, I would have wanted to share my optimism of life and learning with others in the same way as you had with me. In Aikido, you taught me that there was much more to life than we normally see, that physics and humanity are deeply intertwined, and that body and mind are inseparable. My coordination has never been better; at times I felt as if I were as one, complete and at peace with myself, and life had never seemed so clear regardless if class was at 7 am Tuesday morning or 3:30 in the noisy PEC. Then there came Interactive Physics--between that and a video project for PhysCal, I have never felt that I was dealing with physics on a more fundamental level than I did while we thought up Physics 105 labs and used Kepler's law and scaling factors to create the Solar System on a simple computer screen. I will miss Interactive Physics and Aikido, and I will miss even more greatly your enthusiasm for learning. I hope that you continue to teach physics students in coming years the same things that you have taught me, and I hope your life will never be without peace.\nOde to Dr. Winters\nTo most people you probably have just been \"the PhysCal teacher.\" That is probably the most narrow way I can think of to describe your many talents and capabilities, Dr. Winters, and so here I will try to give a broader description. There has been only one thing I could ever think of doing in my life, and that is physics. There haven't many opportunities for me to do much study in this field before I came to Science and Math, but every opportunity that I saw, I took--my room at home is littered with physics books stacked in closets, inside wardrobes, under the bed, everywhere. If there was ever anything that could make me happy, it was physics. I was a bit apprehensive at first about coming to your class because you were \"Dr. Winters: Teacher of Physics with Calculus,\" and I was just a lowly physics student from Physics 105 with the least amount of experience in your class and with practically nothing to offer compared to everyone else. Mechanics has always been the gray area of my physics knowledge and you anticipated this--from the start, you made available a Physics 110 textbook and any other materials I would need to catch up with the rest of the class. Conceptual math and algebra have not always been my best capabilities, and then the day came when I took the first PhysCal test. That was the day. I kept thinking to myself, \"How can I ever hope to be a physicist if I can't understand simple math and physics?\" You told me not to be discouraged, but there you were--an accomplished physics teacher with a Ph.D and a life's worth of physics, and I could not help but to feel discouraged. Feeling discouraged, however, was something I could never feel for long when it came to physics--I suppose I have never told you how much I love physics, and that this was the reason I continued to study, regardless of what hour of the day it was, whether or not I had to sit on the floor or the table (it seems I had a preference for tables) on Physics Floor to get my homework done, if I was the only person at a physics tutorial, or if I was the last person to leave Physics Floor.\nOde to Dr. Winters, part 2\nI apologize for always having to do my homework right outside your office--there was no place else on campus that I could really concentrate on physics, and I apologize for having to always ask whether you were busy or not when I came to ask for help. I know now that you are always busy, Dr. Winters, but sometimes you are less busy than usual, and I always tried to pick that moment as the moment I walked in. Over my senior year I have had the chance to hear various students comment on how you are always so busy when you only teach one class and how you are always so serious about apparently nothing, and during every incidence I have had to explain to them how wrong they were for viewing you this way. You have important conferences and meetings to attend, administrative business to attend to, and I have had the time to see the PhysCal website you have made that explains the purpose of using technology and video in our class. I would have attended UNC next year, and through several links I came across the websites of NCSSM alumni who have taken your High-Speed Photography class and who have posted the images both you and them have created on the web. I wish I could have taken that course--our lives are so stressed and fast-paced that we never stop to smell the roses, nevertheless wonder how the popping of a balloon or the splash of a single water drop appears in such a small instant of time. I knew HTML very well and I wished I could have helped the school make a better website in some way. I wished I could have done many things.\nYou have been somewhat of a father away from home to me; you encouraged me to learn physics while always applying a careful, firm pressure that caused me to try and think through problems by myself without always having to come to you or other PhysCal students for help. You have done the things that I had always aspired to do in my life--draw perfect circles on chalkboards, assign tardy students work service (okay, I'll get to the serious stuff)--learn enough physics to be able to get a Ph.D and help others learn physics in one of the best learning environments in the world, have a good, enjoyable job and your own \"lab\" at home whether it be one of photography or high-energy physics, and, finally, to have made it through life as far as you have.\nOde...(well, you know the rest)\nI hope you don't miss me always busy at physics homework just outside your door or always bothering you with questions (somehow, I don't suspect that you will miss the latter). While I am indescribably grateful for all the things you have done for me to ensure that I have a solid understanding of basic physics, I must also remind myself that there are students much more qualified to work with you and who will have more to contribute to your teaching than I ever could. If I only had the time I most likely would have become a better physics student, and then perhaps you could have taken more notice of me as someone more than just another lowly Physics 105 graduate who just happened to be sitting in your class. I wish I knew Java better than I did; I wish I had taken photography courses in all the visual art courses I have taken in the past; I wish I could have done so much more. I don't know why I bother thinking about how you view me because five years from now you probably won't even remember me; I just know that I can't help but to bother probably because earning the respect of one of the most accomplished teachers I know in the subject whose comprehension has become one of my most important goals in life matters more to me now than anything else. I only wish I could have been a better physics student.\nDad, don't kill me for saying this...\nI have always wanted to change my name, not because I'm not satisfied with it but because in this country, my name is difficult to spell and pronounce, because I have been the butt of many jokes and name-callings, and because I often am unable to distinguish a loud sigh or moan from someone actually calling my name. I say this here because Dad, I don't want you to think I'm not proud of my name or that I don't care about my family. Please don't kill me for saying what follows (oh, I forgot--I'm supposed to be deceased). If I lived in Thailand where my name is pretty common, I likely would not have these small reservations about my name. I had always wanted to name myself after someone who had been quite influential in my life and had a name I could get used to--I couldn't name myself after my dad since his was a guy's name or after any other guy, and I couldn't name myself after my mom because no one would be able to distinguish our names apart. If I could have had the opportunity to choose another name for myself now, I would choose Loren, my physics teacher's name, for one reason. I would want to have a reminder of my constant and unswerving love for science, and to always remember because of this that life is but a long walk beneath a hidden path constantly being uncovered. I want to remember everything I have ever learned in physics. I want to always remember my last year at Science and Math, the place where I can say I first experienced the world in all its light and content, where the shutter speed of my mental eye had become quick enough to experience life without blur. I want to always remember how life changes, how the drops of time constantly splash and coalesce into a film of new dreams and unforeseen ambitions, how a new idea can be generated from such an unlikely source as my own mind, and how an individual can be helped to grow and mature by another. These are all the things I would want to remember, but now that I am no longer here, I likely will not be able to remember these things.\nOde to Dr. Miller, in a way...\nDr. Miller, in his readings of Beowulf and Sir Philip Sydney, had said many times that there were two roads to immortality. The first was to have children, and because I have none and I am the last person in my immediate family, my immediate family and all of our memories together will end with my father and me. The second road to immortality is to be remembered in the thoughts of others. When both my father and I are gone, who else will remember my life and all the things that have been important in it? I have always wanted to make my little mark in the world, and the case has probably arrived where I will not be able to carry out this wish. Perhaps those whom I have held very dear will think of me once in a while and remember some of the few things, if any, I have contributed to their lives. Being young, I have not been able to do much, and for this, I apologize. I can only wish that Time's scythe had not severed my link to this world at such an early point in my life.\nAn Ode to Conclusions\nDad, you may keep this, but please make sure that everyone else I have included here also gets a copy of this. Hopefully, I have helped to answer the questions that you may have had in recent times about my life, and if I haven't done such a good job as I should have, look within yourself for the answers to these questions, because you will inevitably find them there. You are a strong man, and no one can suggest an answer to these questions--not even me, now. The answers are always there; they only have to be uncovered. Dad, I love you, and I am so proud of you and am glad to have had you for my father. I also love everyone I know, this world, and the entire universe to which I shall now return. Neither you nor anyone should grieve for me--I will likely find plenty of company there when I arrive. If through some unknown perturbation of the universe I manage to exist in some form after death, I will think of my life. If I should learn physics on my way to my origins, then I will be happy, because I know you will be proud of me.\nA Loving Daughter and (still) Aspiring Physics Student,\n\"You are a child of the Universe, no less than the trees and stars.\"\n--Desiderata",

        "raw_content": "I've got some good news for you. First off, I received your check this afternoon, and I've finished registering for the two AP exams I will be taking. With all the stamps you put on there, it should have arrived in two hours (smile). I've received a passport application from one of my physics teachers, and since I already have a passport, I'll have to get that one renewed so it will be more current. The cost is $60.00, and I'll have more on that for you on Sunday.\nI don't know where the extra publicity came from, but I had people from the Durham newspaper (the Herald-Sun) come over to photograph and later interview me on my Slinky project. There will be an article on SPW at Science and Math featuring my project and that of another guy on Monday, March 22. My physics teacher is going to get us both a copy, and I'll bring home my copy so you can see it. I think he generated all the extra publicity, although I can't be sure. I also had a video team in charge of designing NCSSM's new recruitment video for next year who wanted to film me doing several slinky drops in front of our new ETC building. I gave my presentation on Wednesday in one of the Physics labs at 3:00, and I kept the attention of my approximately 20-person audience for just over 30 minutes straight. I couldn't believe there were this many people interested in slinkies. It was incredible. For the brief amount of time I spent with this project (a week, and only half a day to prepare for my presentation), I think it turned out pretty well. My physics teacher also says my project is good enough for me to submit a short report in the Physics Teacher Magazine. This is BIG. I've never gotten anything published in an accredited physics journal before. Physics teachers all over the US will get to read my little article. It appears that no one has answered the question of how a slinky falls to such an extent as I have during last week, so it will be good to share my findings with the rest of the scientific community. However, before I get published, I have to do a bit more work and develop skills in high-speed photography to more accurately capture the motion of the slinky on film instead of video. I've got at my hands one of the very, very few complete resources on high-speed photography at http://www.hiviz.com, if you're interested in what I'll be learning next. This is actually a very interesting field, and what I learn here will undoubtedly aid me in my pursuits in college.\nI've received more mail from Duke. My interview will be sometime between 9 and 12 am on Thursday, March 25. I called Duke yesterday, and they have no van loops that run to NCSSM. Therefore, I will have to find someone on campus who might take me over, if possible. I have a paper that I have to send home for you to sign, and it has to be returned to Duke prior to March 24. It will be sent very promptly\nI'm glad to hear that you qualify for radiation surgery. It's definitely a better overall alternative than the other type of surgery. Did he tell you what radiation beam therapy would involve? You can tell me all the news on Sunday; I will be there promptly at 6:00. Actually, I'll probably be there a bit earlier (like 5:45) since I have Calculus review at 6:30, and you know how phone calls never seem to last for just 30 minutes (smile).\nWell, I think that's all the news for this week. Oh--I forgot to tell you that after March 28, I'll find out whether or not I got the scholarship by April 4. On April 12, I'll find out if I got my $1,000 from the FrontPage Awards. I've still got a few scholarships to apply for with June deadlines, so I still have a chance at increasing my money supply for next year. I'll definitely be well armed for the year after next; I know which scholarships to apply for and when, since I can apply for all the ones I missed this year (plus new ones for college students only). Well, take care, and in the meanwhile, get lots of sleep for the next day of class. I love you very, very much.",

The number of closed facilities in all tourist areas registered 220 hotels so far, according to Ahmed Balbaa, chairperson of the tourism committee in the Egyptian Businessmen\u2019s Association (EBA).\nSharm El-Sheikh acquired the lion\u2019s share by registering 54 closed hotels, according to Balbaa. He added that all the hotels in the tourist areas partially closed their doors, and there is no hotel operating currently at full capacity. Since the Russian aeroplane crash in October 2015 in Sinai, Balbaa said that over 220 hotels have closed down permanently in Sharm El-Sheikh, Hurghada, Marsa Alam, Safaga, Luxor, and Aswan.\nBalbaa explained that the number of hotels that permanently shut down in Sharm El-Sheikh alone was 54, and 34 have shut down in Hurghada. He pointed out that the hotels closed due to the extreme lack of tourists during the current period. He explained that they will re-open their doors after the return of tourism. Head of the Tourism Investors Association in South Sinai, Hisham Ali, said that he expects the number of closed hotels will increase after the Eid Al-Adha holiday.\nHe said that three of his hotels closed, and he will not re-open them again until tourism returns. Head of the Red Sea Tourism Investment Association, Kamel Abu Ali, said that in Hurghada, nearly 34 hotels have shut down completely and all hotels have partially closed. He said that he also closed his hotel in Hurghada, which is affiliated with Allbatros Group, and he notified the Ministry of Tourism about this procedure.\nTarek Shalaby, vice president of the Tourism Investment Association in Marsa Alam, said that 35 hotels in the city shut their doors due to the decline in tourism activity. The hotels bear significant losses if they continue to work. He explained that 50% of Marsa Alam\u2019s hotels closed their doors completely, as a result of the low occupancy rate and the scarcity of tourists\u2014especially those from Russian, the UK, and Italy.\nPresident Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi said that, according to the head of the hotel sector at the Ministry of Tourism, the number of closed hotels increases since the 25 January Revolution. The event had a direct impact on the tourism sector. He explained that the hotels are required to appeal to the hotel sector if they plan to shut down, but the sector cannot object to the decision, especially if the reason is lack of occupancy. The number of tourism influx registered 2.3m tourists during the first half of 2016, compared to 4.8m tourists during the first half of 2015.\nsource: dailynewsegypt\nHotels Shut Down Tourist\t2016-08-26\nTags Hotels Shut Down Tourist",

In spite of this, He so values us that he sent His only son in order that this relationship might be restored.

        "raw_content": "Reviewing The Best Stock Picking & Trading Services\nAuthor adminPosted on March 20, 2018 March 20, 2018 No comment Do You Wonder What ETFs Are?\nDo You Wonder What ETFs Are?\nDo you wonder what ETFs are? ETFs are exchange-traded funds. They\u2019re baskets of securities bought or sold through brokerage firms on stock exchanges. ETFs get offered in nearly all classes of assets, ranging anywhere from traditional investments to assets such as currencies and commodities.\nExchange-traded funds might be one of the more crucial and even valuable products that individual investors have seen created for them in recent years. ETFs provide quite a few benefits, and when used right, can be a tremendously powerful way for an investor to meet his investment goals.\nIn short, an ETF is a basket of multiple securities that you can both buy and sell through your brokerage firm on any applicable stock exchange. ETFs are available in just about any asset class you can conceive of, starting with traditional investments in currencies and commodities. Additionally, there are very innovative ETF structures which let investors do things like avoiding capital gains taxes in the short-term, gain leverage or even short particular markets.\nAfter a few false starts, ETFs started in earnest back in 1993. The product then was usually known as SPY, the ticker symbol for \u201cSpiders\u201d. It wound up becoming the highest-volume ETF of all time. At the time of writing in 2018, there were an estimated trillion dollars invested into ETFs, with roughly a thousand individual ETF products being traded on various American stock exchanges alone.\nThe Many Kinds Of ETFs:\nMarket ETFs: These are designed to track a certain index, such as the NASDAQ or S&P 500.\nBond ETFs: These are designed to provide investors exposure to nearly every kind of bond that is available simultaneously, including international, corporate, municipal, high-yield, U.S. Treasury, and much more.\nIndustry/Sector ETFs: These are designed to give investors exposure to certain industries, like high technology, pharmaceuticals, or oil.\nCommodity ETFs: These are designed to follow prices of particular commodities, like corn, oil, or gold.\nStyle ETFs: These are designed to track a particular market capitalization focus or even an investment style, like small-cap growth or large-cap value.\nForeign Market ETFs: These are designed for tracking markets outside the United States. Common examples might be Hong Kong\u2019s Hang Seng index or the Nikkei index of Japan.\nInverse ETFs: These are designed to profit from declines in an index or underlying market.\nActively-Managed ETFs: These are designed to outperform an index, which is different from most ETFs, which are intended to instead track the index and match or follow it.\nExchange-Traded Notes: Essentially, these are debt securities which are backed by the issuing bank\u2019s creditworthiness and created to give investors access to illiquid markets with the additional advantage of not generating short-term capital gains taxes.\nAlternative-Investment ETFs: Innovative structures like ETFs allow some investors to trade things like volatility itself or even gain some exposure to certain investment strategies likes covered call writing or currency carry.\nThe ETF industry is less than a quarter of a century old. With time, more and increasingly unique ETFs are going to get introduced in the coming years. Innovation usually proves to be positive for investors, but they need to know that not every ETF is the same. Investigate carefully prior to investing in any possible ETF, weighing all factors as you try and reach your investing goals.\nCategories: ETFS\nAuthor adminPosted on February 19, 2018 December 3, 2018 No comment A Beginners Guide To Day Trading\nDay trading is the buying and selling of financial instruments within a single trading day. The gains that can be made from day trading are why many people consider doing this. However, there are certain points that you need to consider when looking at day trading for the first time.\nDay trading is an umbrella term for the type of trading you are going to complete and it is not limited to a single market. This is why you need to consider the market that you want to trade in before you start. Choosing a market will come down to what you want to trade, what you can afford to trade and how much time you have to trade. You do not have to limit yourself to a market with a fixed close.\nThe most popular choice for day traders is the stock market because of the large variety of stocks that you can trade in a day. However, you can also choose to trade on the forex market or on the future market. It is important to note that these latter markets do not have set close times like the stock market.\nDeciding When To Day Trade\nMany beginners make the mistake of assuming that day traders need to trade all day. This is not true, but you will need to be consistent in your trading times which is why you have to decide when you are going to trade. One of the ways to create this consistency in trading is to trade in the same hours each day. These hours should be ones then there is volatility and liquidity in your chosen market.\nIf you are going to trade on the futures and stock market, you should look at trading early in the day or just before the close of the market. The hours that the markets run can vary so you need to do some research on the market that you choose. Trading on the forex market is different because it is open 24 hours. To keep things simple, you should focus on the hours of a specific currency pair or exchange to ensure that you get the liquidity and volatility that you need.\nManage Your Day Trading Risks\nTo be a successful trader, you need to correctly manage the risks of your day trading account. To do this, you need to approach your trading as a business and protect your capital investment above everything else. Risk management is something that you need to work on your day trading strategy and something that must be done before each trade. Learn more about managing your risk at the Trading Review website.\nTo manage your risks, you need to set your limits and put measures in place to prevent any worst case scenarios. Stops and limits are the best risk management tools to use and they are an essential part of your trading toolbox. Learn how these tools work and how you can use them to your advantage before you start trading.\nKnow Your Win-Loss And Risk-Reward Ratios\nYou will often hear that successful day traders will quickly cut losing trades and will allow their winning trades to run. This is important in day trading and in all other forms of trading. When you do this, you can have fewer winning trades and more losing trades but still make a profit. You do not always need to be right about your trades and there are no traders who are right all of the time.\nYou need to be able to acknowledge when you are wrong and take the necessary steps to cut your losses. This is why you need to have win-loss and risk-reward ratios. You should look at a risk-reward ratio of 1:2 because this will ensure that you double your money when you have a winning trade.\nBuying Raclette Grills For Business Events\nClarion Hotel Proudly powered by WordPress",

The entire event will take seven hours to complete. Observers will be able to see a small black dot glide from left to right across the top of the sun.\nAccording to NASA, this celestial event is very rare and last occurred 129 years ago. It won\u2019t happen again until December 2117. In fact, the event itself has only happened seven times since the telescope was even invented.\nIf weather holds, skywatchers on all seven continents should be able to observe. Of course, officials warn against viewing with the naked eye. Instead, consider using a pinhole camera or solar filters on a telescope for the safest view.\n[ABC News Radio]\nRead Original: The \u2018Transit of Venus\u2019 to Cross in Front of the Sun for Only Time Until 2117 \u2014 When Can You See It?

        "raw_content": "We can hardly believe it\u2019s the festival planning time of year already, but here we are, and we can\u2019t say we\u2019re mad about it.

        "raw_content": "D23 Recap: DisneyToon Studios Presentations for Tinkerbell Films LEGEND OF THE NEVERBEAST and THE PIRATE FAIRY, Plus PLANES: FIRE & RESCUE\nFinishing up our recaps from today\u2019s D23 presentation, including a look at Disney/Pixar\u2019s upcoming slate and new projects from Walt Disney Animation Studios, we have the direct-to-video production wing of Disney, DisneyToon Studios. Their contributions to D23 include two new Tinkerbell pictures titled Legend of the NeverBeast and The Pirate Fairy, plus a new Planes sequel, Planes: Fire & Rescue. While these DVD/Blu-ray films might not appeal to the broadest base, the D23 presentation did feature some fun guest surprises, including Christina Hendricks (Mad Men), Tom Hiddleston (The Avengers) and Dane Cook (Dan in Real Life). Hit the jump for my recap.\nAfter a brief video tour of DisneyToon Studios, the presentation revisited past successes in the direct-to-video market that include five Tinkerbell features and one TV series. Then, two new Tinkerbell films were introduced.\nDisneytoon Studios director Steve Loter revealed plans for \u201cLegend of the NeverBeast,\u201d which takes the Disney Fairies on an epic action adventure that\u2019s full of heart and edge-of-your-seat suspense. Fun and talented animal fairy Fawn believes you can\u2019t judge a book by its cover\u2014or an animal by its fangs\u2014so she befriends a huge and mysterious creature known as the NeverBeast. While Tink and her friends aren\u2019t so sure about this scary addition to Pixie Hollow, the elite Scout Fairies set out to capture the monster before he destroys their home. Fawn must trust her heart and take a leap of faith if she hopes to rally the girls to save the NeverBeast. Directed by Steve Loter, \u201cLegend of the NeverBeast\u201d roars to life in Spring 2015.\nLoter was on hand to share a personal anecdote behind the inspiration for this film. While he grew up harboring a fear of large dogs, his daughter embraces her natural instincts to see all animals as her friends; the bigger and shaggier, the better. Fawn\u2019s unusual friendship with the massive creature known as the NeverBeast came out of Loter\u2019s firsthand experiences watching his daughter interact with animals.\nDisneytoon Studios\u2019 \u201cThe Pirate Fairy\u201d brought pixie dust to the festivities, unveiling the newest and most exciting adventure in the Disney Fairies franchise. Director Peggy Holmes (\u201cSecret of the Wings\u201d) introduced Christina Hendricks, who gives voice to Zarina, and Tom Hiddleston, tapped to voice a young James aka Captain Hook.\nWhen a misunderstood dust-keeper fairy named Zarina steals Pixie Hollow\u2019s all-important Blue Pixie Dust, and flies away to join forces with the pirates of Skull Rock, Tinker Bell and her fairy friends must embark on the adventure of a lifetime to return it to its rightful place. However, in the midst of their pursuit of Zarina, Tink\u2019s world is turned upside down. She and her friends find that their respective talents have been switched and they have to race against time to retrieve the Blue Pixie Dust and return home to save Pixie Hollow. With comedy, heart and epic thrills for the whole family, \u201cThe Pirate Fairy\u201d sets sail Spring 2014.\nWhile news of The Pirate Fairy pleased fairy fans in attendance, the big surprise was the arrival of Hendricks and Hiddleston to the stage. While it\u2019s a bit unfortunate that the press release and presentation spoiled the fact that Hiddleston\u2019s James is in fact Captain Hook, it was worth the price of admission to hear Hiddleston talk about the awesome experience of meeting the film\u2019s animators and then singing a bit of The Jungle Book\u2019s song, \u201cBear Necessities\u201d. Hiddleston was heard singing once again in a clip from the unfinished film that featured pirates aboard a flying frigate belting out the jaunty tune, \u201cA Frigate That Flies\u201d.\nDisneytoon Studios\u2019 \u201cPlanes: Fire & Rescue\u201d landed on stage at the D23 Expo, welcoming Dane Cook, the voice of Dusty in \u201cDisney\u2019s Planes,\u201d the action comedy adventure that landed in theaters today. Cook, who returns to voice the character in the follow-up, joined director Bobs Gannaway (\u201cSecret of the Wings\u201d) on stage. Julie Bowen was announced as the voice of Lil\u2019 Dipper, and fans were treated to story details for \u201cPlanes: Fire & Rescue,\u201d plus character images, concept art and footage from the film.\n\u201cPlanes: Fire & Rescue\u201d features a quirky crew of elite firefighting aircraft devoted to protecting historic Piston Peak National Park from a raging wildfire. When world famous air racer Dusty (voice of Cook) learns that his engine is damaged and he may never race again, he must shift gears and is launched into the world of wildfire air attack. Dusty joins forces with veteran fire and rescue helicopter Blade Ranger and his courageous air attack team, including spirited super scooper Lil\u2019 Dipper (voice of Bowen), heavy-lift helicopter Windlifter, ex-military transport Cabbie and a lively bunch of brave all-terrain vehicles known as The Smokejumpers. Together, the fearless team battles a massive wildfire, and Dusty learns what it takes to become a true hero. \u201cPlanes: Fire & Rescue\u201d ignites July 18, 2014.\nWith Disney\u2019s Planes opening this weekend, star Dane Cook was in attendance to talk about his return to the role of Dusty Crophopper in Planes: Fire & Rescue. While I haven\u2019t seen Planes, it\u2019s getting some rough reviews out there. Director Klay Hall was on hand to invite the audience to view a special screening at D23 and played a montage of some of the movie\u2019s action sequences for the crowd. Then, Planes: Fire & Rescue director Roberts \u201cBobs\u201d Gannaway took the stage to talk about the direct-to-video sequel. I\u2019d be much more inclined to check out this follow-up as it\u2019s based on the real-life rescue teams and airborne firefighters that combat dangerous wildfires. Emulating the heroic actions of aerial firefighting smokejumper, hotshot and helitack teams, Planes: Fire & Rescue takes viewers to the remote airstrip of Piston Peak. Dusty finds himself there after he\u2019s no longer fit to race and finds a new purpose as a S.E.A.T. (single-engine air tanker) on a firefighting team. We get a glimpse of this team in action, called in to quench a fire to the sounds of AC/DC\u2019s \u201cThunderstruck\u201d. The characters are every bit as goofy and cartoonish as seen in the original film (though I did laugh at the bright green John Deere deer tractors running from the forest fire), but there\u2019s a heroic thruline that could actually pay off at the end.\nBe sure to check out our other D23 recaps below and tune in tomorrow when we\u2019ll have more from Disney and Marvel\u2019s live-action film slate:\nD23 Recap: Walt Disney Animation Studios\u2019 Newest Fairy Tale FROZEN, BIG HERO 6, ZOOTOPIA and the Restored 1928 Mickey Mouse Cartoon \u201cGet a Horse\u201d\nD23 Recap: Disney/Pixar\u2019s Presentations of THE GOOD DINOSAUR, INSIDE OUT, FINDING DORY, TOY STORY OF TERROR! and a MONSTERS UNIVERSITY Short\nKristen Bell Talks FROZEN, Being Part of an Animated Disney Film, and\u2026\nTOP 5: New Trailer for THOR: THE DARK WORLD, ELYSIUM Interviews, New\u2026\n\u2022 Disney \u2022 DisneyToon Studios \u2022 Entertainment \u2022 Legend of NeverBeast \u2022 Movie \u2022 Planes \u2022 Planes: Fire & Rescue \u2022 Planes: Fire and Rescue \u2022 The Pirate Fairy",

        "raw_content": "Monday, 22nd January 2018: Nearly one in two people say technology fails them once a week or more, a new study commissioned by CRITICAL Software has revealed.\nThe OnePoll survey of 2,000 people also found that only half of people think the tech in their lives is properly tested before being sold, despite 98% stating that the reliability of the tech they use is important.\n95% of people say that having technology properly tested by industry experts is important \u2013 much more than those who stress the importance of the brand behind the tech (73%), where it was purchased (70%), or where it was made (61%).\nThe study also found that people prefer to use tested technology that is proven to work over tech that is completely new. 52% of people say that using the latest and newest forms of technology is important to them, while 95% of people say that technology that\u2019s proven to work is important.\nWhen asked what the most important reason for technology needing to be reliable is, 61% of people identify safety or security as their main concern, with the next most important reason being ease of use (11%).\nNuno Silva, CRITICAL Software\u2019s Chief Test Engineer, said: \u201cFor all the awe-inspiring developments, people still seem to have concerns about the reliability of the technology we use in our lives. The pressure to release new technologies can sometimes come at a cost to reliability. The problem with this is that more and more technologies are becoming critical to our day-to-day lives, impacting things like safety and security, and the consequences of getting these things wrong can be catastrophic.\u201d\n95% of people say that some form of safety-accreditation is important to them when assessing the reliability of tech. A whopping 91% state that they would be concerned about using tech that had no safety accreditation.\nHalf of people say that a high price point offers them little reassurance that an item of technology is reliable. 71% say that celebrity endorsement does little to persuade them too, suggesting that companies wanting to build trust would be better off focusing on properly testing tech and providing guarantees, evidence and safety-accreditations.\nNuno Silva, CRITICAL Software, added: \u201cToday, more and more technologies are being used in important systems. For example, modern cars include complex systems that are increasingly responsible for safety features and banks use advanced security technologies to protect online systems.

        "title": "CONVERSABLE ECONOMIST: May 2014",
        "raw_content": "Hours Worked, No Change; Output, Up 42%\nHere's one snapshot of how the U.S. economy evolved in the last 15 years: an identical number of total hours worked in 1998 and 2013, even though the population rose by over 40 million people, but a 42% gain in output. Shawn Sprague explains in \"What can labor productivity tell us about the U.S. economy?\" published as the Beyond the Numbers newsletter from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for May 2014. Sprague writes:\n\"[W]workers in the U.S. business sector worked virtually the same number of hours in 2013 as they had in 1998\u2014approximately 194 billion labor hours. What this means is that there was ultimately no growth at all in the number of hours worked over this 15-year period, despite the fact that the U.S population gained over 40 million people during that time, and despite the fact that there were thousands of new businesses established during that time. And given this lack of growth in labor hours, it is perhaps even more striking that American businesses still managed to produce 42 percent\u2014or $3.5 trillion\u2014more output in 2013 than they had in 1998, even after adjusting for inflation. . . .One thing can be said for certain: the entirety of this additional output growth must have come from productive sources other than the number of labor hours. For example, businesses may increase output growth by investing in faster equipment, hiring more high-skilled and experienced workers, and reducing material waste or equipment downtime. In these and other cases, output may be increased without increasing the number of labor hours used. Gains in output such as these are indicative of growth in labor productivity over a period.\"\nA lot can be said about this basic fact pattern. Of course, the comparison years are a bit unfair, because 1998 was near the top of the unsustainably rapid dot-com economic boom, with an unemployment rate around 4.5%, while 2013 is the sluggish aftermath of the Great Recession. The proportion of U.S. adults who either have jobs or are looking for jobs--the \"labor force participation rate\"--has been declining for a number of reasons: for example, the aging of the population so that more adults are entering retirement, a larger share of young adults pursuing additional education and not working while they do so, a rise in the share of workers receiving disability payments, and the dearth of decent-paying jobs for low-skilled labor.\nHere's a figure showing the patterns of hours worked, output, and productivity in the aftermath of the Great Recession. Sprague explains: \"[A]s the recession began, productivity flattened out as output and hours both fell approximately in concert with one another. Output and hours continued to fall together until the latter part of the recession, when the fall in output ceased but hours continued to decline. During this period there was substantial productivity growth: from the fourth quarter of 2008 through the fourth quarter of 2009, productivity grew 5.6 percent. In fact, this was the highest four-quarter rate of productivity growth recorded in more than 35 years.\"\nHere's a figure showing productivity growth rates in the post-World War II era. Notice that annual rates of productivity growth were relatively rapid from about 1947-1973 at 3.2% per year. Then there is a dramatic slowdown of productivity growth in the 1970s, and while higher rates follow in the 1990s and more recently, the U.S. economy has failed to return to the more rapid productivity growth of the 1950s and 1960s. As I've noted from time to time in previous posts (for example, here and here), there is no more important question for the long-run health of the U.S. economy than whether a fairly robust rate of productivity growth can be sustained.\nThe more immediate question is what to make of an economy that is growing in size, but not in hours worked, and that is self-evidently having a hard time generating jobs and bringing down the unemployment rates as quickly as desired. I'm still struggling with my own thoughts on this phenomenon. But I keep coming back to the tautology that there will be more good jobs when more potential employers see it as in their best economic interest to start firms, expand firms, and hire employees here in the United States.\nI have written an essay for the June 2014 issue of Finance and Development on the subject of \"Economics and Morality\" (51: 2, pp. 34-38). Here are the opening paragraphs, the closing paragraphs, and a couple of snippets in between. Of course, I encourage you to read the whole thing.\n\"Economists prefer to sidestep moral issues. They like to say they study trade-offs and incentives and interactions, leaving value judgments to the political process and society. But moral judgments aren\u2019t willing to sidestep economics. Critiques of the relationship between economics and moral virtue can be grouped under three main headings: To what extent does ordinary economic life hold a capacity for virtue? Is economic analysis overstepping its bounds into zones of behavior that should be preserved from economics? Does the study of economics itself discourage moral behavior? ...\"\n\"Rather than focusing on philosophical abstractions about the moral content of work, consider a prototypical family: parents working, raising some children, friendly with coworkers and neighbors, interacting with extended family, involved with personal interests and their community. It seems haughty and elitist, or perhaps betraying unworldly detachment, to assert that people who work are condemned to live without virtue\u2014unless they can squeeze in a bit of virtuous activity in their spare time. On the other hand, it seems bizarrely and unrealistically high minded to assert that daily work surrounds people every day with transformational opportunities for virtue. A middle ground might be to accept that while moments of grace and opportunities for virtue can occur in all aspects of life, including economic life, the range and variety of opportunities for virtue may vary depending on the characteristics of one\u2019s economic life. ...\"\n\"A standard complaint about studying economics is that the subject is \u201call about getting money and being rich.\u201d ... Economists can feel unfairly singled out by this complaint. After all, many academic subjects study unsavory aspects of human behavior. Political science, history, psychology, sociology, and literature are often concerned with aggression, obsessiveness, selfishness, and cruelty, not to mention lust, sloth, greed, envy, pride, wrath, and gluttony. But no one seems to fear that students in these other disciplines are on the fast track to becoming sociopaths. Why is economics supposed to be so uniquely corrupting? After all, professional economists run the ideological gamut from far left to far right, which suggests that training in economics is not an ideological straitjacket.\"\n\"I have become wary over the years of questions framed in a way that seeks to pit economics against moral virtue in a winner-takes-all brawl. No economist would recommend consulting an economics textbook as a practical source of transcendent moral wisdom. As the recent global economic crisis reminded anyone who needed reminding, economics doesn\u2019t have answers for all of the world\u2019s economic problems. But to be fair, moral philosophers don\u2019t have answers for all the world\u2019s spiritual and ethical problems. In his famous 1890 Principles of Economics textbook, the\ngreat economist Alfred Marshall wrote that \u201ceconomics is the study of people in the everyday business of life.\u201d Economists cannot banish the importance of moral issues in their field of study and should not seek to do so. But when moral philosophers consider topics that touch on the ordinary business of life, they cannot wish away or banish the importance of economics either.\"\nAfrica: Trade Within, Trade Beyond\nIt's common to talk about economic development \"in Africa,\" and I've done so on this blog a few times (for some examples, here, here, here and here). But \"Africa\" includes 54 countries and 1.1 billion people, so does referring to it as a single unit make any economic sense? In my reading, one of the themes of the African Economic Outlook 2014, recently published by the African Development Bank Group, OECD, and the UN Development Programme, is that thinking about Africa as a whole does make some economic sense.\nThe reason is that in the modern global economy, there are no examples of small stand-alone economies that have achieved a high standard of living. Instead, the high-income countries either have an enormous internal market (the US and Japan, for example) or have close economic ties to a number of other national economies (like the countries of the European Union), or both. If the national economies of Africa are going to build on their real if modest economic progress of the last decade or so, one of the big reasons will probably be that they bolster trade relationships within the countries of Africa, as well as tap into international flows of goods, services, people, and finance. To some extent, this change is already underway.\nAs far as trade within Africa, one subsection of the report is headlined: \"Africa is the world\u2019s fastest growing but least globally integrated continent. ... There is only low level connectivity between African economies \u2013 although this is gradually improving . . .. This is largely due to an incomplete\nlegal architecture for regional integration, poor physical infrastructure and one-way trading relationships. Leading African exporters such as Angola, Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Nigeria and South Africa have stronger economic links to the rest of the world than with regional neighbours.\" As one example of the issues, the 54 nations of Africa are divided into eight somewhat overlapping regional economic groups, all proceeding with various steps of economic integration at different speeds.\nHere's a figure comparing intra-Africa trade with other trading partners. A common pattern--say, if one looks at the EU or at North America--is that trade volumes are larger with those who are geographically close. But intra-African trade (the black dashed line) is similar trade between African nations and the US, and lags behind Africa's trade with China or especially the EU.\nBasic steps to encourage intra-African trade are still lacking. It's costly for people to move between countries: \"Africans need visas to get into at least two thirds of other African countries.\" It's hard for goods and services to move, because of missing infrastructure: \"While there has been progress in developing regional transport corridors, there are still missing links \u2013 which are investment opportunities for African and foreign investors. From the Ethiopia-Djibouti corridor, to Lagos-Abidjan, major road corridor upgrades are needed to link key cities to ports and airports. ... Increasing attention is being given to obstacles such as regulatory bottlenecks, the opaque legal environment and institutional inefficiencies holding up new infrastructure.\"\nThe economies of Africa are becoming more closely tied to the buying power in the rest of the world economy in various ways. One of the most visible signs is the type and size of financial flows to Africa. The graph shows four kinds of financial flows: remittances sent back to Africa from emigrants working abroad; official development assistance; portfolio investment, which consists of cross-national financial investments that don't involve a management interest and thus can be liquidated very quickly; and foreign direct investment, which consists of cross-national financial investments that do have a management interest.\nNotice that remittances are now the single biggest category of financial flows into Africa--bigger than foreign aid. Notice also that foreign direct investment, which often involves transfers of management expertise, business connections, and technology as well as financial capital--outstrips portfolio investment.\nA common question is whether the foreign direct investment into Africa is all about outsiders developing oil and minerals. That's clearly a big part of the picture, but not all of it. Here's a breakdown of foreign direct investment into African countries that are resource-rich, and those that are not. The absolute amounts of FDI into the resource-rich countries is larger, but the flow to the non-resource-rich is catching up--and is already larger as a share of GDP.\nThe overall effect of these foreign capital inflows is that Africa is able to finance more investment than if it had to depend solely on national saving. Here's a figure showing that Africa's investment/GDP ratio and its rate of economic growth have outstripped Latin America in recent years, although not reaching the levels of high-growth Asian economies.\nOne of the intriguing possibilities for Africa's economic future is for its economies to become more integrated into \"global value chains,\" in which intermediate inputs to production are produced in a number of different countries. The report devotes a special section and several chapters to this possibility.\n\"In the past, for a country to industrialise it had to develop the domestic capacity to perform all major steps in the value chains of complex manufactured products. Today, through linking into an international production network, countries can establish a specific section of a product\u2019s value chain without having all the upstream capabilities in place. These remain elsewhere and are linked through shipments of intermediate products and communication of the know-how necessary for the specific step in the value chain present in the country. . . . Through participation in a value chain, countries and firms can acquire new capabilities that make it possible to upgrade, i.e. to capture a higher share of the value added in a global value chain. The development experiences of several Asian countries show how industrialisation depends on linkages and on innovations arising from knowledge spillovers. For instance, China integrated into global value chains by specialising in the activities of final product assembly and was capable of upgrading its participation by building a competitive supply base of intermediate goods (developing linkages) and by enhancing the quality of its exports. At the firm level, economic upgrading is defined as \u201cmoving up\u201d the value chain into higher-value activities, which theoretically enables firms to capture a higher share of value in the global value chain and enhances competitiveness . . .\nMany of the factors that hinder economic integration across Africa, or affect economic growth in Africa more broadly, also affect the prospects for Africa's participation in global value chains. Still, there are a few initial promising signs. Some African countries are making a push to be involved in the business outsourcing market: \"The global business processing outsourcing market was forecast to grow 5.1% in 2013 and reach USD 304 billion. The race is on among countries such as Egypt, Kenya, Ghana, Mauritius, South Africa, Tunisia and Uganda to become the new \u201cIndia\u201d in Africa using incentives and special economic zones to develop their outsourcing sectors.\"\nPerhaps the biggest problem is that global value chains as they currently exist are regionally concentrated: around east Asia, the European Union, and North America. Geographic areas like Africa or Latin America are thus trying to break into these existing networks:\n\"Despite their name, global value chains exhibit high regional concentration, which is shrinking slowly. Africa does not play a significant role yet. When measuring the linkages between major supply-chain traders, the strongest relationships can be found within the regional blocks of East Asia, Europe and North America. About 85% of global value chain (GVC) trade in value added takes place in and around these three hubs. While other regions remain marginal, their share has increased from only 10% in 1995 to 15% in 2011. Africa\u2019s share in GVC participation increased from 1.4% to 2.2% during the same time.\"\nA Shadow Banking Schematic\nSo-called \"shadow banks\" were at nexus of the financial market meltdown that brought on the Great Recession. But what's a \"shadow bank\" and why does it cause problems? Daniel Sanches offers an overview in \"Shadow Banking and the Crisis of 2007-08,\" in the Business Review of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia (2014, Q2, pp. 7-14).\nAs a starting point, think about how a plain vanilla ordinary bank functions in the economy, acting as a financial intermediary between savers and borrowers. Here's a schematic taken from Chapter 29 of my Principles of Economics textbook (and of course, I encourage those teaching intro econ next year to check it out.) Savers deposit money in banks. Banks lend those funds to borrowers. Borrowers repay the loans with interest, and the original savers are paid some of that interest, along with having the ability to withdraw their money as desired.\nBut here's the potential problem. Once the money is loaned out, the borrowers are on a schedule to repay gradually over time. However, the original savers want the ability to withdraw their money any time they please. The assets of the bank (the loans it has made) are long-term, while the liabilities of the bank (the money it owes to savers) are potentially very short-term. In the textbook, I call this the \"asset-liability time mismatch.\" Before the enactment of deposit insurance, if the original savers heard that their bank had made a lot of loans that might not pay off, they have an incentive to \"run\" on the bank, quickly withdrawing their deposits and bringing the bank to its knees. When the government started requiring deposit insurance, it knew that savers no longer had an incentive to monitor whether their bank was behaving prudently, and so the government also installed a system of bank regulation.\nSanches says it this way:\n\"This description of a typical banking crisis clearly reveals why banks are fragile: They fund illiquid assets with deposits that can be withdrawn at will. Economists usually refer to this practice as maturity transformation. It is important to mention that this role played by banks has a value for society. People have a preference for holding highly liquid assets \u2014 assets that are easy to sell without taking a loss \u2014 but the most profitable investments take a long time to pay off. Banks offer demand deposit contracts that give people ready access to their funds and a higher rate of return than they would get by holding liquid assets directly. Banks are able to offer a higher rate of return to depositors because they pool resources in such a way that permits them to invest a significant fraction of their assets in higher-yielding, long-term projects such as mortgages and other types of long-term loans. Normally, funding illiquid assets with short-term liabilities works fine. But\nwhen depositors begin to worry about losses, a bank run may ensue.\"\nThe combination of deposit insurance and bank regulation worked to keep the U.S. financial system fairly stable for about 70 years from the late 1930s up to the start of the Great Recession. But during the last few decades, a new type of financial structure arose. Here's a schematic from Sanches showing how a shadow bank works:\nAs he writes, step 1 is for the bank to make loans. However, in this case the bank does not wish to continue holding or servicing the loans, and so it sets up an SPV, or special purpose vehicle, which purchases the loans from the bank. Next, the special purpose vehicle issues asset-backed securities (ABS), which are just financial securities where the return is determined by the loans that the SPV purchased from the bank. Outside investors can buy these asset-backed securities.\nThere is nothing necessarily wrong with any of this. By selling off the loans to a special purpose vehicle, the bank insulates itself from the risk that loans might go bad. As a result, the bank regulators are pleased. The loans that are sold to the SPV might be home mortgages, or car loans, or money owed to credit card companies, or they might be loans to businesses, like the short-term loans called \"commercial paper.\" Instead, the outside investors in the SPV bear that risk. Imagine, for example, that the outside investor is a large pension fund or insurance company, with long time horizons. The pension fund isn't set up like a bank to make business loans. But by purchasing a portfolio of such loans made through an SPV, the pension fund or insurance company can be well-positioned to bear the risk that some loans won't pay off, as long as on average it receives a solid return over time.\nBut several issues can arise in the new financial structure, as well. One risk is that that when banks know that they are not going to be holding the loans themselves, but rather selling the loans along to an SPV, they are likely to put less time and attention into evaluating the risk of the loans. The loans in an SPV may end up being riskier than expected, and if investors recognize that these risks are high, they will be less willing to invest in certain kinds of SPVs. In turn, if banks face a situation where it's hard for them to re-sell their loans to an SPV, and the banks have decided that they no longer wish to hold loans themselves, then the banks will cut back sharply on making loans in the first place.\nPart of the credit crunch during the Great Recession was because investors became aware that at least some of the SPVs that included home mortgages were quite risky--but they didn't know which ones. As a result, they became unwilling to invest in any SPVs based on home mortgages for a time.\nAnother issue arises if those investing in the SPV are not an entity like a pension fund, with long-term time horizons and an ability to ride out the bumps in the market, but instead have very short-term time horizons. Imagine that you are running a corporation or a big financial organization like a pension fund, and you need to keep a certain amount of your money in cash, so that you can use it to pay bills and payroll. However, as Sanches points out: \"Until 2011, large commercial depositors could not receive interest on their short-term deposits, another motivation for them to seek an alternative place to park their funds.\" When interest rates were very low, pension funds were searching for options to hold cash that paid a higher interest rate, too.\nAs a place to invest their liquid assets and still earn some return, these institutions turned to what's called the \"repo\" market, where repo is short for \"repurchase.\" The market works this way. On one side you have parties who hold some financial assets, which could be Treasury bonds or mortgage-backed securities or car-loan-backed securities or something else. These institutions may often be investment banks or broker dealers. These institutions want to borrow some funds, and they offer the securities they hold as collateral. On the other side of the market, you have the big corporations and financial funds that are looking for a place to park their short-term cash and get some interest.\nThis is called the \"repo\" market because the financial transaction works this way: The investment bank or whoever owns the financial assets sell those assets to the corporation or financial fund, but part of the sale is an agreement to repurchase the asset at a slightly higher price the next day. The slightly higher price acts like an interest rate paid for borrowing. Now imagine that this transaction is repeated every day. The result is that the borrower has some amount that is continually being borrowed--that is, it is continually selling assets every day and buying them the next day. On the other side, the lender is receiving a steady stream of payments for their cash--that is, it is continually buying asset every day and reselling them, according to the repurchase contract, the following day. every day. It's a lot like a very strange bank, where every day all the depositors come and deposit their money, it is loaned out for one day, and at the end of the day all the depositors come and with draw their money--and this pattern is repeated every day. Sanches explains like this:\nAs should be clear by now, the \u201cbanker\u201d in the repo transaction is the repo borrower, which typically is an investment bank or the broker-dealer arm of a large bank holding company. These institutions use the funds they borrow in the repo market to finance a wide range of activities, some of them quite risky. ... The growth of the repo market prior to the financial crisis of 2007-08 was extraordinary. The volume of repo transactions reported by primary dealers (those who trade directly with the Federal Reserve System) had grown from roughly $2 trillion in 1997 to $7 trillion in 2008. This estimate, of course, leaves out unreported transactions. ... [T]he overall size of the repo market just before the financial crisis was roughly the same as the size of the\ntraditional banking sector as measured by total assets. ...\nThe repo market may sound a little peculiar, but it works just fine--as long as the financial assets that are being bought and sold are extremely safe and secure, like U.S. Treasury borrowing. But in the years leading up to the financial crisis in 2007-2008, repo contracts began to be based more and more on other financial instruments, like mortgage-backed securities. In addition, financial funds like money market mutual funds, which are required by law to invest in short-term assets as a way of holding down their risks, began to put a portion of their funds into the very short-term repo markets.\nAs it became clear that mortgage-backed securities were not safe, those who had been putting the $7 trillion into the repo market backed away. Those who had grown to depend on being able to borrow that money--by rolling over the repo loans every day--found themselves rather suddenly without access to capital. Sanches explains this way:\n\"A depositor with serious doubts about the underlying value of the collateral can do two things: either ask for more collateral or simply not renew the repo. Both actions can be interpreted as a decision to withdraw funds from the shadow banking system, much like the decision bank depositors make to withdraw funds from their bank when they believe they might not be able to get all their money out. Repo lenders initially asked for more collateral, but ultimately they simply refused to renew their loans. In other words, the repo market froze Because investors could not tell safe MBS [mortgage-backed securities] from risky MBS in most cases, they withdrew their funds even from shadow banks that probably had safe MBS to secure repos. This problem was severe enough to turn the initial panic into a systemic event \u2014 a banking crisis. Thus, the financial crisis was not very different from the banking crises of old. Investors in the repo market behaved pretty much like bank depositors did during U.S. banking crises before 1933. And the outcome was certainly very similar. The initial banking crisis spread to other financial markets, and several financial firms either failed or had to be rescued by the federal government to prevent further failures.\"\nIn broad terms, one way to think about these issues is that the old model of the plain-vanilla bank, making and holding loans, has been breaking down for some years now. Instead, there is a more complex web of investors in special purpose vehicles, often tied to banks if technically separate from them, who structure their financial transactions to have the overall effect of making deposits, lending, borrowing, and investing, but without having those actions happen in the organizational structure of a conventional bank. The task of creating a new structure of financial regulation to address the new realities is quite incomplete. The implementation of the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation passed back in 2010 is only about half-completed, and for all the new requirements it seeks to impose, it does essentially nothing to address repo markets or issues of lending and borrowing financial securities.\nA Heavenly Vision Without Scarcity\nEarlier this month, I noted that Gary Becker viewed time as the fundamental constraint that inevitably leads people to live in a world of scarcity--and therefore a world in which economic choices must be made. A reader sent me a reminder about some speculation on what a situation without scarcity would look like. Scott Gordon offered a brief speculation on \"The Economics of the Afterlife\" in the February 1980 issue of the Journal of Political Economy (88:1, pp. 213-214). Gordon wrote:\n\"I start with one postulate: that in Heaven there is no scarcity. As David Hume recognized, all conflict springs from scarcity, so it is not necessary to describe Heaven as characterized by justice, peacefulness, mutual love, etc., since these are derivatives from the no-scarcity postulate. One might wonder how economic analysis could be applied to a regime of no scarcity, but this is exactly the point: we can use the analysis, not to describe how to allocate resources efficiently, but to discover the characteristics Heaven must have if no such allocation is necessary.\"\nHowever, as Gordon points out, even if time is infinite in Heaven, scarcity in terms of time would still exist, because people would not be able to do everything at once, and thus would need to decide what to do sooner and what to do later. Gorgon draws the logical inference:\nFor Heaven to be characterized by no scarcity, it is necessary that Heaven time be different from World time. Tentatively, let us assume that Heaven time, in addition to being infinite in length, is also infinite in width. Instead of being represented by a Euclidian line which has length but no width, a Heaven time line would have both length and width and would be infinite in both dimensions. In such a regime, there would be no time constraint upon actions or experiences. This would be a condition of no scarcity, since at every instant there is an infinite amount of time.\nBut if the infinite range of all possible experiences could occur within an instant of time, additional instants of time would be superfluous. Heaven would thus be simultaneously rapturous and brief. Gordon sums up:\nI conclude from this that, if the basic postulate of Heaven is the absence of scarcity, then the afterlife will be exquisitely intense in experience but fleetingly brief. Perhaps the reason why most people display great reluctance to experience the bliss of Heaven is due to the fact that, being accustomed to thinking in terms of World time, where duration is of the essence, they find the brevity of Heaven time unappealing. Of course, in making this suggestion, I am assuming that most people have all along known intuitively what economics only just now has proven logically.\nLonger Lives and Retirement Finance Challenges\nLonger life expectancy is a profound blessing associated with economic development. But it raises questions for the lifetime balance between work years of earning income and retirement years of spending it. James M. Poterba explores the issues in \"Retirement Security in an Aging Population,\" which was delivered as the Richard T. Ely Lecture in January, and has now been published in the May 2014 issue of the American Economic Review: Papers & Proceedings (104:5, pp. 1\u201330). The AER is not freely available on-line, but many readers will have access through library subscriptions.\nAs a starting point, contemplate the rise in life expectancy for Americans during the 20th century. In 1900, for example, men had a life expectancy of 51.5 years, and less than a 50% chance of reaching age 65. If they reached 65, they had an additional life expectancy of 13.5 years. By 2000, men had a life expectancy at birth of 80 years, and 86.1% of men would reach age 65, when they would have an additional life expectancy of 20.4 years.\nIn the study of economics, no good news goes unpunished. The typical pattern across a lifetime is that children and young adults consume more than they earn, adults from age 25-65 earn more than they consume, and then adults over age 65 again consume more than they earn. Here's a table from Poterba showing the averages:\nThe difficulty arises, of course, because many people have life profiles of income and consumption that don't match this average. When average retirement is longer, and especially when a portion of that retirement is more likely to be spent in the above-85 age group that is more prone to physical and cognitive limitations, saving for retirement needs to be on average correspondingly larger, too.\nFor a sense of the differing results of working and saving over a lifetime, consider this table showing the sources of income for those over age 65. The columns show figures by income \"quartile,\" that is, by dividing the population of elderly by income into quarters. The top panel shows the percentage of people in that income quartile receiving income from a certain source, while the bottom panel shows the amount of income received from that source.\nOne way to think about these patterns is to divide the elderly population into three groups. First consider the lowest income quartile. About three-quarters of this group receives Social Security, and about one-quarter receives some income from other assets. But for this group, 85% of annual income comes from Social Security. Of course, this calculation is based on income, so it doesn't count the value of in-kind benefits like Medicare, Medicaid (which covers nursing care for the low-income elderly) or Food Stamps. Also, at least some of the elderly in this group probably own their home outright, and for that group their out-of-pocket housing expenses may be relatively low. But the hard reality from this data is that something like one-quarter of the elderly will have no financial assets and perhaps no housing assets either at retirement. They will be reliant on Social Security and various public assistance programs.\nNow consider the upper quartile. Although about three-quarters of this group also receives Social Security, it is not the primary source of income. Some of those in this over-65 group have not yet started receiving Social Security income, because half of this top quarter is still earning income, which accounts for 43% of the average income of this group (although this average includes both those who are working and those who are retired). More than half of this group have pension income, and three-quarters have income from other assets. This part of the population is also eligible for Medicare, and a fairly large share probably own their homes outright as well. Together with average income of $78,000, this top quarter of the over-65 population is in essentially good shape for retirement, even a retirement that lasts a few years longer than expected.\nThe third group is those in the middle. Some of this group, especially those in the third quartile rather than the second, are continuing to work and earn income, and a substantial share have some pension income. Still, Social Security accounts for 83% of the income of the second quartile (almost as high as for the first quarter) and well over half of average income in the third quartile. Average annual income for these groups is $15,400 for those in the second quartile and $26,600 for those in the third quartile, which with some mixture of Medicare, public assistance programs, family support, and maybe owning a house can be enough to scrape by. This is a group where public policy that provides incentives for additional saving in a retirement account while working, or working a few more years before retirement, might make a considerable difference.\nJust to complicate the comparisons across these groups a little more, growth in life expectancy is not evenly distributed across income groups. For example, here are some illustrative statistics showing that for those born in 1912 (and thus those would have turned 65 in 1977), life expectancy for those who reached age 65 and those who reached age 85 was roughly the same. But a gap began to open up. For those born in 1941 (and thus turning 65 in 2006), at age 64 the life expectancy of the top half of earners at age 65 was a full five years longer than for the bottom half of earners. At age 85, life expectancy for the top half of earners born in 1941 was about 3 years longer than for the bottom half--and life expectancy at age 85 for the bottom half of earners did not improve for those born in 1941 over those born in 1912. The reasons for this gap in life expectancy gains across income levels is not entirely clear, but it has to do with the tangle of linkages between greater educational attainment, better health status, and higher income earned.\nThe options for addressing the retirement financing challenge posed by longer lives is straightforward enough. For the lowest-income groups, we will need additional public support. For the middle-income groups, we need incentives for greater saving during working life, and incentives for working a few more years before retirement. The high-income group is already largely looking after itself, often by working a few more years before retirement.\nHow much should you be saving for retirement? Poterba offers some eye-opening illustrative calculations. He looks at a typical path of income over time, and then asks, if at age 65 you want to buy an annuity that will provide amount equal to half of your age-65 income for the rest of your life, what share of income should you be saving? He does the calculations separately for men and women, in parat because different life expectancies. He considers several different \"real\" rates of return (that is, the rate of return above inflation). He looks at whether you save for 40 year, 30 years, or 20 years. And he looks at whether you want an annuity that will pay a fixed nominal amount, or one that will increase its payments by 3% per year, to offset any increases in the cost of living.\nAs one example of the bottom line, say that you are a man who will save for 30 years and get a 3% real return.You want to buy the annuity that starts off at half your age 65 income, and then increases 3% per year. Then over those 30 years, you need to be saving 23.9% of your income each year. The average personal saving rate for Americans--that is, saving divided by after-tax income--has been about 5% in recent years. In short, many Americans are not saving nearly enough, including many who have the income level that if it was a priority, they could manage to put more aside. Some Americans already know that they aren't going to have much income in retirement, but I suspect that in the next decade or so, many more Americans are going to reach retirement and feel surprise and disgruntlement over the low level of income they are facing.\nUS Antitrust Policy in 2013\nEach year the Federal Trade Commission and and the Department of Justice Antitrust Division publish the Hart-Scott-Rodino Annual Report, which offers an overview of merger and acquisition activity and antitrust enforcement during the previous year. The Hart-Scott-Rodino legislation requires that all mergers and acquisitions above a certain size--now set at $75.9 million--be reported to the antitrust authorities before they occur. This reporting thus offers an overview of merger activity in the United States.\nBasically, the story is that the number of mergers and acquisitions has rebounded from the lows of the Great Recession, but the total for 2013 was pretty average. Some press sources, like the Economist magazine, are chirping about the possibility of a new wave of mergers and acquisitions right around the corner. They have been making that prediction for a couple of years now, and sooner or later it will be correct.\nThe report also shows the size distribution of mergers. Remember that the very small number of mergers under $50 million is not because such mergers don't occur, but because the smaller mergers need not be reported to the antitrust authorities.\nOut of all the proposed mergers, typically about 3-4% lead to a request from the antitrust authorities for more information, and ultimately a few dozen of the mergers are challenged. This percentage may seem low. But remember that firms who know that the antitrust authorities are looking are less likely to propose an anticompetitive merger in the first place. And remember further that the job of the antitrust authorities is not to make judgments about whether the merger makes sense from a business point of view, or whether the price is a fair one, but only to judge whether it might lead to anticompetitive outcomes.\nThe report also offers quick overviews of the more prominent antitrust enforcement actions over the last year. For teachers of economics looking for a quick example, here are two good examples, with links to the underlying case documents. In both cases, the antitrust authorities allowed a merger to proceed only after the firm agreed to divest various assets in a way that was intended to preserve competition.\nOne case is the merger between US Airways and American Airlines (or AMR Corporation). The report notes:\nIn United States, et al. v. US Airways Group, Inc. and AMR Corporation, the Division\nand the states of Texas, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Florida, Tennessee, Virginia, and the District of Columbia challenged the proposed $11 billion merger between US Airways Group, Inc. and American Airlines\u2019 parent company, AMR Corporation. The complaint alleged that the transaction, as originally proposed, would substantially lessen competition for commercial air travel and result in passengers paying higher airfares and receiving reduced service. In addition, the transaction would reduce competition in the market for slots at National Airport where the merged carrier would control almost 70% of the slots. A proposed consent decree settling the suit was filed November 12, 2013, requiring US Airways and American to divest slots and gates in key constrained airports across the country to low cost carriers in order to enhance system-wide competition in the airline industry and address the competitive harm that would result from the proposed transaction. Specifically, the companies are required to divest or transfer: (i) 104 air carrier slots and related gates and facilities at Washington Reagan National Airport; (ii) 34 slots at New York LaGuardia Airport and related gates and facilities; and (iii) two gates and\nrelated facilities at each of five airports: Boston Logan, Chicago O\u2019Hare, Dallas Love Field, Los Angeles International, and Miami International. These divestitures are the largest ever in an airline merger and will allow low cost carriers to fly more direct and connecting flights throughout the country in competition with the legacy carriers. This will result in more choices and more competitive airfares for consumers. The court entered the consent decree on April 25, 2014.\nAnother case that might make a useful example, given the general preoccupation of many college students with the beer industry, is the proposal from Anheuser-Busch (ABI) to purchase Modelo. The \"competitive impact statement\" filed by the antitrust authorities notes:\nThe beer industry in the United States is highly concentrated and would become more so\nif ABI were allowed to acquire all of the remaining Modelo assets required to compete in the United States, as the transaction was originally proposed. ABI and MillerCoors, the two largest beer brewers in the United States, account for more than 65% of beer sold in the United States. Modelo is the third largest beer brewer, constituting approximately 7% of national sales, and in certain MSAs its market share approaches 20%. Heineken and hundreds of smaller fringe competitors comprise the remainder of the beer market. In the 26 MSAs alleged in the Complaint, ABI and Modelo control an even larger share of the market, creating a presumption under the Clayton Act that the merger of the two firms would result in harm to competition in those markets.\nThe Hart-Scott-Rodino report sums up the consent decree:\nIn United States v. Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV and Grupo Modelo S.A.B de C.V., the\nDivision challenged Anheuser-Busch InBev\u2019s (ABI) proposed acquisition of the remaining\ninterest in Grupo Modelo that ABI did not already own. According to the complaint filed on January 31, 2013, as originally proposed, the $20.1 billion transaction would have substantially lessened competition in the market for beer in the United States as a whole and in 26 metropolitan areas across the United States, resulting in consumers paying more for beer and diminished innovation. ABI\u2019s Bud Light is the best selling beer in the United States, and Modelo\u2019s Corona Extra is the best selling import. On April 19, 2013, a consent decree was filed settling the suit and requiring Modelo and ABI to make divestitures that would fully replace Modelo as a competitor in the United States. The decree called for the divestiture of Modelo\u2019s entire U.S. business including perpetual and exclusive licenses of Modelo brand beers for distribution and sale in the United States, its most advanced brewery, Piedras Negras, and its interest in Crown Imports, LLC (Crown) to Constellation Brands, Inc. (Constellation) or an alternative purchaser. Crown was the joint venture established by Modelo and Constellation to import, market, and sell certain Modelo beers into the United States. The decree was entered by the court on October 24, 2013.\nDoes Growth Reduce Emigration from Low-Income Countries?\nOne of the standard arguments as to why the U.S. and other high-income countries should support trade with low-income countries and foreign aid to those countries is that it would reduce the pressures for emigrants to leave those countries. For example, during the arguments over the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, it was common to hear supporters argue that if the U.S. wasn't willing to import goods from Mexico, it would end up importing immigrants instead. Similar arguments have been made that western European countries should support trade and aid to Africa and Asia, so that pressure for immigration flows to Europe would be reduced.\nBut do the facts support this arguement? In the Center for Global Development Working Paper 359 (March 2014), Michael Clemens asks \"Does Development Reduce Migration?\" He argues that the evidence supports a \"migration transition,\" in which economic growth actually stimulates emigration from a low-income country until it reaches upper-middle income levels--and only leads to less immigration at that point. Clemens writes:\n\"In short, the best-available data show an unmistakable inverted-U pattern across countries in the relationship between overall economic development and emigration. The data offer no sign that among low-income or lower-middle-income countries, rising incomes are associated with smaller emigrant stocks or lower net emigration rates. To the contrary, typical countries in this group show a positive, significant association between average incomes and emigration. The relationship changes markedly somewhere around PPP$6,000\u20138,000. Among countries above this level of income\u2014upper-middle-income countries or richer\u2014higher incomes are associated with reduced emigration. But even the very richest countries do not systematically exhibit lower emigration rates than the poorest countries.\"\nHere's one of the pieces of evidence behind that claim. The graph is based on plotting data by country. The horizontal axis shows per capita GDP for each country; the vertical axis shows the percentage of the population of that country which has emigrated. The graph shows curves fitted through this data for 1990, 2000, and 2010. The common pattern is that emigration is lower for the lowest-income and highest-income countries, and higher for middle-income countries.\nWhy might this pattern hold true? Clemens considers a range of possibilities. For example, people in the poorest countries may be less likely to have the resources to emigrate. Perhaps people in middle-income countries are more likely to have some level of connectedness to high-income countries that makes migration seem more thinkable and less risky.\nBut as researchers seek to disentangle the underlying rationale behind the migration transition, the assumption that economic development in low-income countries will reduce migration doesn't seem likely to hold up well. After all, economic development in China and India in recent decades doesn't seem to have reduced emigration from those countries--even if a number of those emigrants eventually head back to their home countries. At least for the next few decades, the future of the globalizing economy may also be a future of ever-evolving pressures for rising migration levels.\nPrices Around the World for Gasoline\nPrices for gasoline and diesel fuel vary a great deal around the world, because some countries tax these goods heavily, while others subsidize them. Lucas W. Davis considers the effects in \"The Economic Cost of Global Fuel Subsidies,\" published in the May 2014 issue of the American Economic Review: Papers & Proceedings (104:5, pp. 581\u2013585). (The AER is not freely available on-line, but many readers will have access through library subscriptions.)\nHere's a graph showing gasoline prices in countries around the world, on the horizontal axis, and gasoline consumption per year, per person, on the vertical axis. The size of the circle for each country is proportional to total consumption of gasoline in that country. Thus, for example, the U.S., Canada, and Kuwait are roughly similar in their per capital consumption of gasoline, but because of the much larger population of the United States, the circle denoting U.S. consumption is larger. Similarly, although per capital consumption of gasoline is much lower in India and China than in the United States, the much larger populations of those countries mean that total consumption of gasoline is larger--as shown by the size of the circles for those countries.\nOf course, many factors will affect fuel consumption in an economy besides the after-tax price: fro example, countries with higher per capita GDP tend to consume more fuel, and countries that are large and sprawling will tend to consume more fuel for transportation than smaller countries where more people live in urban areas. Still, a couple of themes from this graph catch my eye.\n1) The price of gasoline in the U.S. is well below that many other high-income countries. That isn't the only reason the U.S. consumes so much more fuel on a per capita basis--as a high-income and geographically sprawling country, one would expect U.S. fuel consumption to be higher--but it's one of the reasons. The higher taxes on gasoline are part of a general pattern where the governments of most high-income countries rely more heavily on consumption taxes, including value-added taxes as well as taxes on specific goods like gasoline, than does the U.S. government.\n2) Venezuela has the lowest fuel prices of any country: indeed, their prices are well below the actual world market price. Presumably, the political leadership in Venezuela believes that its political base supports this policy--and this belief may well be correct. But subsidizing fuel has a cost, which in Venezuela's case is about $14 billion out of a GDP of $380 billion--that is, almost 4% of GDP in Venezuela goes to fuel subsidies. For comparison, the U.S. defense budget is projected to be 3.6% of GDP this year. When Venezuela spends, in proportional terms, the amount of the U.S. defense budget on fuel subsidies, it give up the possibility of spending those funds on health care, education, income support, and so on. Indeed, the bulk of fuel subsidies don't go to the poor--who don't have enough income to buy a lot of fuel at any price--but instead go to those with middle- and upper-level incomes.\n3) Worldwide, governments spend about $110 billion annually on fuel subsidies. Of that amount, 90% is for the ten countries listed in the table below. By the measure used here, the U.S. does not subsidize oil and gas production on an overall basis, given the mixture of gasoline taxes on one side and various ways of favoring oil-producers in the tax code on the other. Davis writes: \"Fuel subsidies also have a large impact on government budgets, requiring taxes to be higher than they would otherwise, and inhibiting the ability of government to address other fiscal objectives. Expenditures on energy subsidies in many of these countries exceed public expenditures\non health, education, and other key components of government spending.\"\n4) Not all major oil exporters subsidize fuel. As Davis writes: \"Prices are at or above market in Iraq ($2.95 per gallon for gasoline), Mexico ($3.26), Russia ($3.74), and Canada ($5.00).\"\nAntibiotic Resistance: A Mismanaged Public Good\nThe potential problems that could arise as microbes become resistant to antibiotics were recognized quite early. For example, Sir Alexander Fleming shared the Nobel prize in physiology or medicine in 1945 \"for the discovery of penicillin and its curative effect in various infectious diseases.\" Near the end of his Nobel lecture, Fleming said:\n\"I would like to sound one note of warning. Penicillin is to all intents and purposes non-poisonous so there is no need to worry about giving an overdose and poisoning the patient. There may be a danger, though, in underdosage. It is not difficult to make microbes resistant to penicillin in the laboratory by exposing them to concentrations not sufficient to kill them, and the same thing has occasionally happened in the body. The time may come when penicillin can be bought by anyone in the shops. Then there is the danger that the ignorant man may easily underdose himself and by exposing his microbes to non-lethal quantities of the drug make them resistant. Here is a hypothetical illustration. Mr. X. has a sore throat. He buys some penicillin and gives himself, not enough to kill the streptococci but enough to educate them to resist penicillin. He then infects his wife. Mrs. X gets pneumonia and is treated with penicillin. As the streptococci are now resistant to penicillin the treatment fails. Mrs. X dies.\"\nAs it turns out, the issue is not that that antibiotics \"can be bought by anyone in the shops,\" but instead that health care providers have been quick to prescribe antibiotics, repeatedly and for a wide range of conditions. Inevitably, not everyone takes the full dose, and in some cases the full dose doesn't quite end the infection. Some microbes become increasingly resistant to antibiotics. As economists have pointed out, this pattern is logically parallel to the issue of what can happen with the overuse of a shared public resource, the so-called \"tragedy of the commons.\"\nImagine a shared public resource like a common field where people can graze cattle. If there are too many cattle on the field, it will degrade the environment and everyone will suffer. However, each individual has an incentive to graze just a few more cattle on the field, because the individual will receive 100% of the benefits from adding a few cattle, while the costs of environmental degradation will be shared with everyone else who uses the field. Unless some social norms or rules prevent the outcome, overgrazing will result. Of course, the same logic can be applied to overfishing, overlogging, and indeed more broadly to issues like air and water pollution. In the case of antibiotic resistance, health care providers who prescribing antibiotics frequently and easily are seeking to benefit each individual patient, while the costs of accumulating resistance to antibiotics are shared across the population. In this way, the pursuit of health for individual way, resistance to antibiotics builds in a way that can impose heavy costs.\n\"A post-antibiotic era\u2014in which common infections and minor injuries can kill\u2014far from being\nan apocalyptic fantasy, is instead a very real possibility for the 21st century.\" So says the World Health Organization in its recent report: \"Antimicrobial Resistance: Global Report on surveillance.\"\nThe WHO report draws on evidence from around the world to note a growing rise in resistance to antibiotics for some major diseases: tuberculosis, pneumonia, malaria, HIV, influenza, and others. The report notes:\n\"For several decades antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been a growing threat to the effective treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi. AMR results in reduced efficacy of antibacterial, antiparasitic, antiviral and antifungal drugs, making the treatment of patients difficult, costly, or even impossible. . . . Antibacterial resistance (ABR) involves bacteria that cause many common and life-threatening infections acquired in hospitals and in the community, for which treatment is becoming difficult, or in some cases impossible. . . .\nSome estimates of the economic effects of AMR have been attempted, and the findings are disturbing. For example, the yearly cost to the US health system alone has been estimated at US $21 to $34 billion dollars, accompanied by more than 8 million additional days in hospital. Because AMR has effects far beyond the health sector, it was projected, nearly 10 years ago, to cause a fall in real gross domestic product (GDP) of 0.4% to 1.6%, which translates into many billions of today\u2019s dollars globally.\nWhat are the possible solutions? One possibility is to invent our way out of the problem with new groups of antibiotics. The WHO report documents a \"discovery void\" in new groups of antibiotic drugs in the last quarter-century. Perhaps some of this \"discovery void\" can be linked to a lack of economic incentives to discover new groups of antibiotics. But my understanding from a few researchers in this area is that it has been proving genuinely hard to find new classes of antibiotics. And even if a scientific discovery that could lead to new classes of antibiotics is made tomorrow, there would be years of health and safety testing ahead before it reached the health care market.\nThe other options all come down to ways to avoid overprescribing antibiotics--so that when they are really needed, they will still work. In too many places, antibiotics are prescribed for all sorts of conditions where they aren't going to be effective (like in response to viruses). In too many places, many steps could be taken to cut down on the risk of infections through basic steps like more hand-washing and sterilization, which would reduce the need to prescribe antibiotics. Steps like these need to be undertaking with some urgency, so that current antibiotics can keep working while we hunt for new ones.\nVolunteers for Blood, Paying for Plasma\nThe U.S. seems to have a consensus, about which many people have strong feelings, that blood donors should be volunteers. However, the U.S. is also the country which relies most heavily for a paid supply of blood plasma, and in fact exports plasma to the rest of the world. Robert Slonim, Carmen Wang, and Ellen Garbarino explore this and many other aspects of \"The Market for Blood\" in the Spring 2014 issue of the Journal of Economic Perspectives. (Full disclosure: I've been managing editor of the JEP since the first issue in 1987. All articles in JEP back to that first issue are freely available on-line compliments of the American Economic Association.)\nSlonim, Wang, and Garbarino point out that a volunteer blood system can have problems in adjusting to fluctuations in demand for blood. For example, in the aftermath of disasters like the terrorist attacks of 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina in 2005, blood donations spike up. However, these events didn't actually lead to a large demand for blood, and since blood has a limited shelf life, a substantial share of these donations ended up being destroyed. On the other side, there are predictable seasonal fluctuations in demand for blood, like shortages in winter and around holidays. They have some sensible suggestions,within the context of a volunteer blood system, about how one might mobilize irregular donors of blood to address such fluctuations.\nFor me, the most intriguing questions concern the issue of whether the blood supply should be paid or volunteer. Of course, the issue only affects donors of blood--everyone else in the health care system is expecting to be paid when they store and use this valuable health product. Slonim, Wang, and Garbarino write (citations and footnotes omitted): \"Even with a largely voluntary supply of blood, the blood industry can be regarded as a multibillion\u2013dollar market because hospitals pay for blood products and charge patients for their use. For example, the cost of the components of each unit of blood sold to hospitals in the United States is approximately $570, with the cost for red blood cells at $229, platelets at $300, and plasma at $40. Hospitals transfuse this blood at estimated costs of between $522 and $1,183 per unit in the United States and Europe.\"\nThe question of whether a country relies on volunteer or paid blood supply is in part an historical accident, often relating to how blood systems evolved in the decades after World War II. Volunteer blood donation is more common in high-income countries, but many countries in Latin America rely on paid blood donors. In the past, it may have been true that blood from paid donors was less likely to be safe, but given modern techniques for screening blood (and plasma), this pattern no longer seems to be true. Looking at the evidence across countries, Slonim, Wang, and Garbarino state: Thus, while volunteer and nonvolunteer donor characteristics may differ, on the critical issue of blood safety, we find no evidence that countries with higher percentages of volunteer donors provide safer blood.\"\nIn the U.S, a divergence emerged in the 1970s when the blood supply became almost entirely dependent on voluntary donors, while the supply of blood plasma came to rely on paid donors. Slonim, Wang, and Garbarino write: \"In contrast to most high-income countries relying on\n100 percent volunteer plasma supply, by 2004, 81 percent of US plasma supply was collected from paid donors. In 2004, the United States collected almost 70 percent of the world\u2019s plasma, with 40 percent eventually used in North America, 32 percent used in Europe, and 19 percent used in Asia.\"\nThis divergence raises some uncomfortable questions for those who believe strongly that the blood supply should depend on volunteer donors. Why are all the arguments for volunteer blood donors equally true for plasma donors? More important, it raises a question of whether the U.S. and other countries that use a volunteer blood donor system are using a method that has worked fairly well in providing a steady supply, but is not providing a larger supply that would over time encourage innovation in health care goods and services that rely on blood. Here is how Slonim, Wang, and Garbarino make this point:\nHowever, it is impossible to say how well the volunteer [blood donor] system has performed in an absolute perspective; for example, it is possible that if the blood supply was to increase via a market mechanism that priced blood to its marginal value, then healthcare providers would find innovative uses for it such as the recent trials on the use of plasma derivatives to treat Alzheimer\u2019s. In other words, volunteer supply may meet current demand because the health industry is not aggressively pursuing research and development that might lead to greater demand for blood that they recognize the volunteer system cannot supply.\nThe volunteer system, however, has not done well in meeting plasma demand. The United States is the only country that is totally self-sufficient in all blood and plasma products and has accomplished this using a mostly for-profit plasma industry. Most other countries have to import at least some plasma products, with the single biggest importers being Germany, Austria, and Spain. Many countries remain unwilling to pay for plasma donations due to concerns regarding safety and ethics, which may explain the dramatically different usage rates for plasma products. For instance, in 2006 the US health care system used 105 grams per/1,000 people of the dominant plasma product (immunoglobulin) which was more than 250 percent of the rate in Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, and Japan, suggesting that the noncompensated plasma collection system might be limiting potential usage in many countries.\nMaking a transition from a volunteer blood supply to more of a paid blood supply seems to me fraught with practical difficulties. Disrupting the established methods of blood supply should not be done lightly. But it also seems to me that the issues here are neither about the safety of blood from paid donors, given the capabilities of modern blood testing, nor are the issues about the risk of exploiting paid blood donors, given that such arguments would apply equally well to the already widespread practice of paying plasma donors. The real issues should be about the practicalities of making such a change to more paid blood donation, at least in a partial way, and about the potential costs and benefits from such a transition.\nThe State of U.S. High School Education in Economics\nEvery two years the Council on Economic Education publishes \"Survey of the States: Economic and Personal Finance Education in our Nation\u2019s Schools.\"\nWith two high-schoolers and a middle-schooler in my own family, I'm well aware that class-time is tight, and it is impractical to just keep adding subjects and material. Also, I have some qualms about how economics is sometimes taught at the high school level as a sort of watered-down intro college course, rather than as a subject with practical skills and lessons for everyday life as a consumer, worker, borrower and saver, insurance purchaser, manager, citizen, and voter. But it also seems to me that high school students face some genuine financial dangers in this world of credit cards and payday loans, rental agreements and lease-to-buy deals, choices among insurance policies with different deductibles, student loans and car loans--and these dangers that can seriously undermine their financial start as young adults. Thus, I do think it's worth finding some ways to squeeze in some additional learning about economics and financial health. What are the US states generally up to along these lines?\nOne eye-opener in the CEE report is that the question of whether a state \"requires\" economics in the curriculum often does not have a yes-or-no answer. Instead, the answer can be thought of as a set of questions: Does the state include economics in its standards? Is there a requirement that the standards be implemented? (Apparently, a \"standard\" and whether the standard is implemented are separate decisions!) Is there a requirement to offer a specific high school course? Is there a requirement that students take that high school course? Is there required testing of economic concepts?\nHere's a table showing the trends in these categories since 1998. Economics is included in more standards, even in standards that are required to be implemented. However, fewer than half the states require offering a high school course in economics, or require that the course be taken by students.\nWhat are the similar factors on the personal finance dimension? There was a huge jump in adding personal finance material to school standards from 1998 to 2000, and the requirements to implement these standards have grown over time. However, relatively few states require offering or taking a course in this area, and there is little testing of these topics.\nMy children joke about having yet another lecture on the perils of drugs, alcohol, and smoking, or about the need to stand up to bullies. Those subjects are worth addressing. But my suspicion is that many high school students will suffer from severe episodes of poor financial health in the 5-10 years after they leave high school--and that the prevalence of such episodes could be reduced with improved high school education in this area.\nTeeth Whitening, Occupational Licensing, and Antitrust\nThe teeth-whitening industry has seen substantial growth in recent years, which raises this question: Should it be illegal for someone other than a dentist to do teeth-whitening? And do dentists as a group get to make this decision?\nHere's a discussion of how this issue came to the fore in North Carolina, taken from a 2012 brief written by the Federal Trade Commission when the case of North Carolina State Board of Dental Examiners v. Federal Trade Commission before the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court (citations and footnotes omitted for readability):\nSince 1989, peroxide-based teeth whitening has become one of the most popular cosmetic dental services. Teeth whitening is available as an in-office treatment, or take-home kits, by dentists; as over-the-counter products; and at salons, malls, and other convenient locations by non-dentists. Although all these methods employ peroxide, they vary in important respects, including immediacy of results, ease of use, necessity of repeated application, need for technical or professional support, and price. Thus, while dentists\u2019 \u201cchair-side\u201d services are quick and effective\u2014usually providing results in a single visit\u2014they are also \u201cthe most costly\u201d alternative. At the other end of the spectrum, over-the-counter products, with relatively low concentrations of peroxide, are the least expensive, but with highly variable efficacy, as they require diligent and repeated application by consumers.\nGrowing demand for teeth whitening services led, around 2003, to the entry of non-dentist providers. These providers generally occupy an intermediate level\u2014in terms of cost, convenience, and efficacy\u2014between dentists\u2019 chair-side services and over-the-counter products. They utilize intermediate-concentration peroxide, in a single, consumer-administered application, lasting an hour or less. Non-dentist services are often offered at prices hundreds of dollars less than dentists\u2019 in-office services. As competition from non-dentists mounted, North Carolina dentists demanded that the Board \u201cdo something\u201d about the new market entrants.\nThese complaints apparently had almost nothing to do with consumer safety. They were almost entirely about the competition from lower prices for these services. Here's how members of North Carolina's Board of Dental Examiners are selected:\nIt consists of six licensed dentists, elected directly by other state licensed dentists; one licensed dental hygienist, elected by other licensed hygienists; and one consumer member, appointed by the governor. The six dentist-members must also be active practitioners while on the Board; thus, they provide for-profit dental services (some including teeth whitening), and have a significant financial interest in the business of their profession.\nUnsurprisingly, this group decided that non-dentists should be barred from offering teeth-whitening services. These decisions about what only certain licensed practitioners are allowed to provide are typically not challenged by the antitrust authorities, so it was somewhat surprising that the FTC challenged this practice, and that the decision was upheld by the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. The case has now reached the the U.S. Supreme Court.\nThe broader issues at stake here go well beyond teeth whitening services in North Carolina. Aaron Edlin and Rebecca Haw review the arguments in \"Cartels by Another Name: Should Licensed Occupations Face Antitrust Scrutiny?\" which appears in the April 2014 issue of the University of Pennsylvania Law Review. Edlin and Haw point out that there are now hundreds of licensed occupations, like the dentists in North Carolina, who are often defining certain activities that those who lack such licensing are forbidden to do. They set the stage this way (again, footnotes omitted):\nOnce limited to a few learned professions, licensing is now required for over 800 occupations. And once limited to minimum educational requirements and entry exams, licensing board restrictions are now a vast, complex web of anticompetitive rules and regulations. . . . State-level occupational licensing is on the rise. In fact, it has eclipsed unionization as the dominant organizing force of the U.S. labor market. While unions once claimed 30% of the country\u2019s working population, that figure has since shrunk to below 15%. Over the same period of time, the number of workers subject to state-level licensing requirements has doubled; today, 29% of the U.S. workforce is licensed and 6% is certified by the government. The trend has important ramifications. Conservative estimates suggest that licensing raises consumer prices by 15%. There is also evidence that professional licensing increases the wealth gap; it tends to raise the wages of those already in high-income occupations while harming low-income consumers who cannot afford the inflated prices.\nAs one starts trolling through specific examples of occupational licensing, state-by-state, a number of examples at least raise the question of whether the rules are more about protecting higher prices for some providers than providing services for consumers. Here are some examples from Edlin and Haw's discussion:\n\"Where licensing was once reserved for lawyers, doctors, and other \u201clearned professionals,\u201d now floral designers, fortune tellers, and taxidermists are among the jobs that, at least in some states, require licensing. ... In Louisiana, for example, all flower arranging must be supervised by a licensed florist. . . . Minnesota (along with several other states) now defines the filing of horse teeth as the practice of veterinary medicine, a move that has redefined an old vocation as a regulated profession subject to restricted entry and practice rules. . . .Several states even prohibit the sale of caskets by anyone other than licensed funeral directors. . . . And although Louisiana restricts the sale of caskets, it does not regulate the design of caskets or even require that bodies be buried in a casket at all. . . .\nState cosmetology boards have responded to competition from two increasingly popular practices\u2014African-style hair braiding and eyebrow threading\u2014by demanding that braiders and threaders obtain cosmetology licenses before they can lawfully practice their craft. Neither practice requires sharp instruments or chemicals, and neither involves a significant risk of infection. Now manystate cosmetology boards want braiders and threaders to attend two years of school (with a price tag of $16,000) to learn cosmetology procedures and techniques irrelevant to their practice, pass an exam, and pay yearly dues to maintain a license in cosmetology\u2014a profession they have no interest in\npracticing. . . .\nFor example, in many states, dental licensing boards restrict the number of hygienists a dentist can hire to two.72 The anticompetitive effects of this restriction are well known; in 1987, the FTC published a policy paper showing that dentist-to-hygienist ratios tend to raise prices but not quality. . . .At least one state has taken the hygienist restrictions further. In 2001, the South Carolina Board of Dentistry required that exams performed by a licensed dentist accompany all cleanings. The rule frustrated the state legislature\u2019s attempt to extend in-school dental cleanings to rural and other underserved children. ....\nNurse practitioners and physician assistants are trained in some of the same skills as family practice physicians but need not learn the more advanced skills essential to obtaining a medical degree. . . . For many procedures, outcome studies reveal that the extenders\u2019 services are as safe and effective as that of physicians. Extenders have been essential to low-cost convenience clinics like CVS\u2019s MinuteClinics and public health initiatives aimed at serving low-income individuals with restricted access to medical care. Undoubtedly influenced by powerful lobbying from the American Medical Association (AMA), twelve states (including more populous states such as California, Texas, and Florida) require physician supervision over all nurse practitioner activity. Several states prohibit nurse practitioners from prescribing medication. . . . In addition, many states define title certification and abstraction as the \u201cpractice of law,\u201d which effectively inflates demand for legal services by requiring attorney representation at all real estate transactions.\nOther \"recent additions to the list of professions requiring licenses include locksmiths, beekeepers, auctioneers, interior designers, fortune tellers, tour guides, and shampooers.\" Of course, the standard argument in favor of occupational licensing is that it protects consumers by assuring that they will receive higher-quality services. In many cases, this argument seems very unlikely to be true. For example, there didn't seem to be any evidence that the non-dentist teeth whitening services in North Carolina were ineffective or harmful to consumers. Consumers wouldn't seem to be at any particular health or safety risk from unlicensed flower arrangers. And if you don't like the service provided by a hair-braider or an interior designer, well, just like if you don't like a certain restaurant or movie theater, you can exercise your power as a consumer not to give them any more business.\nBut the connection between occupational licensing and quality of service can also be examined more systematically. These rules about what services need an occupational license vary considerably across states. In practical terms, this variation across states is part of what helps licensing to restrict competition from those in other states: indeed, Michelle Obama has advocated policy changes so that states would recognize certain out-of-state licenses held by military spouses. In research terms, the variation across states has allowed a wave of studies to confirm that occupational licensing is often quite effective at raising prices, but the quality benefits are often difficult to find in the data.\nEdlin and Haw take a middle ground here. They argue that occupational licensing may have benefits for consumers in some cases, but they also argue that when those who are licensed start setting the rules for what those who are not licenses are allowed to do--like the nondentist teeth whiteners in North Carolina--then the competition authorities like the Federal Trade Commission should be allowed to challenge these rules. They write: \"Our proposal recognizes the potential benefits of licensing\u2014preventing charlatanism and injury to the public\u2014but rejects the idea that the potential\nbenefits justify total antitrust immunity for licensing.\"\nAbsurdities of Copyright Protection\nCopyright protection has lost touch with its intended purpose. Derek Khanna lays out some striking evidence in \"Guarding Against Abuse: Restoring Constitutional Copyright,\" published as R Street Policy Study No. 20 (April 2014).\nAs a starting point, the fundamental purpose of copyright is not to help authors gain a reward in the market. The fundamental purpose is to advance science and the arts, which means encouraging others to build on pre-existing work. For this purpose, copyright protection must strike a balance between protecting the ability of authors to earn a reward, on one side, but also assuring that what they have created enters into the public domain so that it can be used by others, on the other side\nHere's the purpose of copyright according to the U.S. Supreme Court (Feist Publications Inc. vs. Rural Telephone Service Co., 499 US 340 [1991], citations omitted): \"It may seem unfair that much of the fruit of the compiler's labor may be used by others without compensation. As Justice Brennan has correctly observed, however, this is not \"some unforeseen byproduct of a statutory scheme.\" . . . It is, rather, \"the essence of copyright\" . . . and a constitutional requirement. The primary objective of copyright is not to reward the labor of authors, but \"[t]o promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts.\" Art. I, \u00a7 8, cl. 8. . . .To this end, copyright assures authors the right to their original expression, but encourages others to build freely upon the ideas and information conveyed by a work.\" Just to be clear, the quoted passage about \"the Progress of Science and useful Arts\" is from Art. I, \u00a7 8, cl. 8 of the U.S. Constitution.\nHere's the heart of Khanna's argument (footnotes omitted):\nThat original U.S. statute created a 14-year term, with the option of a 14-year extension if the author was still alive. Until 1976, the average copyright term was 32.2 years. Today, the U.S. copyright term is the life of the author, plus 70 years. By contrast, patent terms have changed very little. Today\u2019s term for utility patents is either 17 years from patent issuance or 20 years from patent filing, whichever is longer. (The term for design patents, which resemble copyrights in some key respects, is still the original 14 years.) As legal historian Edward Walterscheid puts it, while patents and copyrights were included in the same clause of the Constitution and originally had the same or similar durations, the patent term has increased by just 43 percent while the copyright term has increased by almost 580 percent. Congress must justify why a 20-year term can provide sufficient incentive to inventors, but not to writers and artists.\nThere's a lot of history and law about why this has happened: for even more detail than this article, you can look at Khanna's articles in the Cardozo Arts and Entertainment Law Journal here and here. Here, I just want to focus on the some of the peculiar results from this large and fairly recent extension of copyright--basically, a lot of stuff that would have gone off copyright in the last few decades is now still covered, and trying to figure out what is still covered by copyright from a few decades back can be quite difficult. Here are some examples lifted from Khanna's essay (with footnotes omitted for readability).\nThe \"Happy Birthday to You\" example\n\"As one clear illustration of the costs of extremely long copyright, Warner/Chappell claims a copyright to \u201cHappy Birthday to You,\u201d which the Guinness World Records book calls the most famous song in the English language. Due to the copyright claim, every time someone wants to use a portion of this song in a video or performance, they have to pay a license fee or risk being sued. The Warner/Chappell claim is based upon a published version of piano arrangements from 1935. The authenticity of the claim is under dispute, with some arguing that the song was written earlier and by someone else. Robert Brauneis of George Washington University Law School has argued pretty persuasively that Warner/Chappel does not own a lawful copyright to this song. But while the court tries to sort this out, people will have to pay rents to Warner/Chappel to publicly perform the most famous song in the English language. This discourages some people from performing this song publicly. Restaurants such as Applebee\u2019s and Shoney\u2019s have developed songs that are used instead of \u201cHappy Birthday to You\u201d to avoid copyright infringement and avoid paying hefty royalties. . . .So far, they have collected an estimated more than $2 million annually in licensing fees for the song. According to one estimate, it is the song that earns the highest royalty rates. Under current law, \u201cHappy Birthday to You\u201d will remain under copyright until 2030, but we should expect a push to continue to expand copyright even further beyond 2030.\"\nLearning about the U.S. Civil Rights Movement\nThe Problem of \"Orphan Works\" Where the Copyright Holder from a Long-Ago Work Cannot be Located\nLibraries submitted a filing to the Copyright Office last year\nexplaining that, when they tried to digitize and provide\nweb-based access for their collection, 22 percent of the publishers\ncould not be found. Google Books digitizes a large\namount of the world\u2019s books. Alas, for many older works, it\nis extremely costly or impossible for them to track down the\nrightful owner of the work. ...\nIn 1930, 10,027 books were published in the United States. In 2001, all but 174 of these titles are out of print. But for the Sony Bono Copyright Extension [Act of 1998], digital archives could be made\nof remaining copies of the 9,853 works not currently being published. But under CTEA, and with likely future term extensions, digital archivists \u201cmust continue to wait, perhaps eternally, while works disappear and opportunities vanish.\u201d As one example, the early volumes of periodicals such as the\nNew Yorker, Time magazine and Reader\u2019s Digest \u201cprovide an unparalleled window into early 20th century American life and culture [but] few if any of these works can be found online because they are still under copyright. Until they fall into the public domain, the process of clearing rights for each\narticle, drawing, and photograph makes digital archiving of\nsuch composite works practically impossible.\u201d\nPlays and Music\nHow many plays from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s have high schools had to pay large fees to license and reproduce? Certainly those plays are not too old for literary and cultural value. Under a shorter copyright term, as the founders intended, written music from that era would be available to anyone for free with the click of a button, rendering most of the early jazz movement in the public domain. Would schools not be more likely to have jazz clubs for students if most of the music could be printed for free? . . . A number of orchestras have stopped performing Peter and the Wolf, by Prokofiev, because when the work returned to copyright protection after having been in the public domain, the cost of sheet music became prohibitive. In a survey by the Conductors Guild, 83 percent of orchestral conductors have a general practice of conserving resources by limiting their performances and recordings of copyrighted works. About 70 percent said they are no longer able to perform some works previously in the public domain . . .\"\nThe \"Missing 20th Century\" of Books\nWhen books enter the public domain, there is an explosion in readership and availability, because public domain works can be provided for free online. In fact, works are significantly more available once they enter the public domain. A 2012 review of books sold through Amazon showed that those published after the critical public domain cut-off date of 1923 are available at a dramatically lower rate than books from the prior century. This is what The Atlantic magazine has referred to as \u201cThe Missing 20th Century.\u201d The spike in availability starts right after works enter the public domain. This study shows there are 700 percent more books available from the 1910s than from the 1950s, even though there were many more books published in the 1950s. Another study by the same economist showed that, when books enter the public domain, audio versions of those works become significantly more available and are of equal quality to those of copyrighted books.\nThese examples can be multiplied, but I hope the basic lesson is clear. Excessively long copyright terms are not serving the purpose of promoting the arts, but have become a trough where lawyers, big corporations, and political interests joust and feed. Those who hold copyrights for successful older materials would of course like to see those copyrights extended. This no surprise, of course. I'm sure that those who hold patents on, say, successful prescription drugs would like to see the patents extended, too. But it is, of course, wild ironic that the Disney Company manages to lobby for continual extensions of copyright to keep exclusive rights to Mickey Mouse and others--when so many the classic movies of that the company produced were based on works in the public domain: for example, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, the music in Fantasia, Jungle Book, Pinocchio, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Alice in Wonderland, Swiss Family Robinson,and many more.\nAnd just in case you think this is over? Khanna points out that the forces arguing for ever-longer copyright have inserted a provision in the drafts of the trade agreement called the Trans-Pacific Partnership Treaty which would extend copyright to life of the author plus 100 years--and by making this part of an international agreement, it would then become much more difficult for Congress to alter it in the future.\nDoes Growth Reduce Emigration from Low-Income Cou...\nThe State of U.S. High School Education in Economi...\nTeeth Whitening, Occupational Licensing, and Antit...\nNAFTA Turns 20\nGDP Snapshots from the International Comparison Pr...\nPatterns of U.S. Imprisonment\nMark Gertler on Financial Crisis Dynamics\nGary Becker and the Time Constraint\nBig Data in Political Campaigns\nWork Philosophy from Gabriel Garc\u00eda M\u00e1rquez\nFarewell to Notes\nSpring 2014 Journal of Economic Perspectives\nHighway Patrol Traffic Enforcement",

        "title": "The First Photograph",
        "raw_content": "View from the Window at Le Gras, c. 1826\nLong before the first public announcements of photographic processes in 1839, Joseph Nic\u00e9phore Ni\u00e9pce, a scientifically-minded gentleman living on his country estate near Chalon-sur-Sa\u00f4ne, France, began experimenting with photography. Fascinated with the craze for the newly-invented art of lithography which swept over France in 1813, he began his initial experiments by 1816. Unable to draw well, Ni\u00e9pce first placed engravings, made transparent, onto stones coated with light-sensitive varnish of his own composition. These experiments, together with his application of the then-popular optical instrument, the camera obscura, would eventually lead him to the invention of the new medium.\nIn 1824 Ni\u00e9pce met with some degree of success in copying engravings, but it would be two years later before he utilized pewter plates as the support medium for the process. By the summer of that year, 1826, Ni\u00e9pce was ready. In the window of his upper-story workroom at his country house, Le Gras, he set up a camera obscura, placed within it a polished pewter plate coated with bitumen of Judea (an asphalt derivative of petroleum), and uncapped the lens. After a day-long exposure of eight hours, the plate was removed and the latent image of the view from the window was rendered visible by washing it with a mixture of oil of lavender and white petroleum, which dissolved away the parts of the bitumen that had not been hardened by light. The result was the permanent direct positive picture you see here\u2014a one-of-a-kind photograph on pewter. It renders a view of the outbuildings, trees and landscape as seen from that upstairs window.\nAn ultimately doomed attempt to interest the Royal Society in his process\u2014which he called \"Heliography\"\u2014brought Ni\u00e9pce and the first photograph to England in 1827. Upon his return to France later that year, he left his precious artifact with his host, the British botanist Sir Francis Bauer, who dutifully recorded the inventor's name and additional information on the paper backing of the frame that held the unique plate. Ni\u00e9pce formed a partnership with the French artist, Louis Jacques Mand\u00e9 Daguerre, in 1829, but produced little more work and died, his contributions chiefly unrecognized, in 1833.\nThereafter, the nineteenth century would see the first photograph pass from Bauer's estate and through a variety of hands. After its last public exhibition in 1898, it slipped into obscurity and did not surface for over half a century. It was only in 1952 that the photohistorian, Helmut Gernsheim, was able to follow the clues, establish the work's provenance, and discover where family members of the plate's last recorded owner had forgotten that it was stored away. He verified the photograph's authenticity, obtained it for his collection, and returned Joseph Nic\u00e9phore Ni\u00e9pce to his rightful place as the world's first photographer. When Harry Ransom purchased the Gernsheim Collection for The University of Texas at Austin in 1963, Helmut Gernsheim subsequently donated the Ni\u00e9pce heliograph to the institution. The Ni\u00e9pce heliograph\u2014the world's earliest extant permanent photograph from nature\u2014forms the cornerstone not only to UT's Photography Collection but also to the process of photography which has revolutionized our world throughout the last one and one-half centuries. Because of its uniqueness and its significance to the arts and humanities, it is among the world's and the University's rarest treasures.\nThis most famous reproduction of the World's First Photograph was based upon the March 1952 reproduction produced at Helmut Gernsheim's request by the Research Laboratory of the Eastman Kodak Company in London. The pointillistic effect is due to the reproduction process and is not present in the original heliograph. The Kodak reproduction was touched up with watercolors by Gernsheim himself in order to bring it as close as possible to his approximation of how he felt the original should appear in reproduction.\nThe World's First Photograph, housed in its original presentational frame and sealed within an atmosphere of inert gas in an airtight steel and Plexiglas storage frame, must be viewed under controlled lighting in order for its image to be visible. In general, this procedure requires viewing the plane of the pewter plate at an angle of approximately 30\u00b0 to the perpendicular and in exact opposition to a point source of light, preferably within a darkened environment free of other incidental light sources.\nThe view, made from an upper, rear window of the Ni\u00e9pce family home in Burgundy, represents (from left to right): the upper loft (or, so-called \"pigeon-house\") of the family house; a pear tree with a patch of sky showing through an opening in the branches; the slanting roof of the barn, with the long roof & low chimney of the bake house behind it; and, on the right, another wing of the family house. Details in the original image are very faint, due not to fading\u2014the heliographic process is a relatively permanent one\u2014but rather to Ni\u00e9pce's underexposure of the original plate.\nHead of Photograph Conservation\nThis material is taken from the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center Web site.

        "raw_content": "Wooley's Half-Ass Horrorthon\nRe: Wooley's Half-Ass Horrorthon\nAll that said, it was nice to see my little friend from Night Of The Comet again.\nOh, and here's a hint as to what the next movie is:\nTrick R Treat rewatch?\nYou so smart.\nAnd another Halloween favorite:\nWe watched 2 full movies last night and then also about the first 20 minutes of The Hunger.\nMan, if you just wanna set the mood, you could do a lot worse than the opening scene of that movie.\nAnd yes, that song will be the next video posted here, don't spoil it for those who don't know.\nI have actually reviewed this film at least 3 times over the last 12 years on RT/Corri, so I will not belabor the point.\nThis is the modern-day Halloween classic. This is the one.\n3 of us who had seen it showed it last night to 4 who had not, and they all loved it and were stunned that they had never even heard of it. they wondered how something that good could fly under the radar.\nAs always, the Red Riding Hood story played the best of the individual \"chapters\", but the newcomers were also really impressed with how the wrap-around was actually part of the narrative of each story and how it all sort of flowed and each story was present within all the other stories.\nThere was much praise.\nAnyway, Trick 'r' Treat wins again, it's always so easy for me to win an audience with this, and it really gets everyone in the Halloween mood, as you can see.\nI normally watch this either Halloween night or the night before, depending on parties, but this year we used it to kind of get the Halloween mood going, and it worked in spades.\nThe second half of our double-feature the other night continues to help usher in the Season. Combined with Trick 'r' Treat you can cover a lot of ground with these two movies, including Halloween tropes, Anthology/Omnibus, Horror-comedy, Meta-horror, Homage, plus Sigourney Weaver.\nI'm sure everyone's seen Cabin In The Woods so I won't dwell too long, and if I remember, there are haters about as well. I'll never understand that, I think this is an extremely well-executed horror movie on its own, but is also a very funny horror-comedy, and a very clever meta-horror, almost completely successful in all phases, so I don't get hate for this or even less than, like. But there's no accounting for taste so I will politely agree to disagree in advance with anyone who has problems with this movie.\nIt's about as much fun as I think you can hope to have if you're a horror fan and it was a big success with our 3 noobs during our double-feature.\nI will add, as I mentioned in the previous write-up, that I usually watch these two either Halloween night or the night before depending on parties, but I actually think they may work BETTER as a ramp-up for the season.\nI will leave us with, our greatest virtue, Patience.\nI usually watch these two either Halloween night or the night before depending on parties, but I actually think they may work BETTER as a ramp-up for the season.\nI gotta say, this slasher/80s thing I've got going on is not really putting me in a Halloween mood. Watching people get stabbed to an arena rock soundtrack is doing nothing for me. It's only day 8, I'm not sure I can last all month without sneaking some Barbara Steele in there somewhere.\nLove that poster for Cabin in the Woods. I watch it every Halloween without fail.\nMy sister and I saw Cabin in the Woods at the theater and had a blast. I know that the theater experience always adds a star or two to my movie ratings, but whatever. It was good fun and the audience was really into it.\nThat's why I don't really watch slashers during October unless they've got a supernatural component or just are super-creepy and/or well-done.\nLike, Terror Train works great for Halloween because there's actually a costume-party going on on the titular train.\nAnd obviously Halloween works cuz Halloween.\nMy Bloody Valentiine works because the killer is so monster-like (like Michael and Jason) and it's got a lot of style.\nBut no, I wouldn't wanna watch random slashers for the best 31 days of the year.\nThe Ghost Spider Of Death!!!\nDamn, nice work. I've seen, like 4, I'll get to 6 tonight. All this month. I don't expect to break 20 though, with all the travel I have to do.\nI have no life, though haha and I stay up late due to my night job (3-11 pm).\nNight of the Comet rules.\nWhat's Halloween without a visit to...\nI love that movie. I feel like I remember it dragging a bit in the middle, but mostly it's just so awesomely nuts it wins.\nIt takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent's fritters.\nWell, I said I would revisit this in light of all the recent chatter and I did. So what is there to say about it?\nWell, it's still the weakest of the Trilogy, but I think that's probably obvious and doesn't need to be stated.\nBut, it's a lot better than I remembered, although I am having to admit now that maybe, as that phrase keeps coming up, I've just seen a lot more bad horror movies now than when I first saw HbtC.\nFor those who have not seen it, this is the middle film in Fulci's Gates Of Hell Trilogy, which a lot of people seem to agree was an accidental trilogy, especially since there's little if any mention of any gates or of Hell in this film, which should, by definition, bridge the other two.\nThe story, which was recently compared to The Shining, did not feel at all like The Shining to me. A family moves to a new place because of the husband's work, the place is haunted, and there is some sort of \"psychic friend\"... ok, that does kinda sound like The Shining (do you wanna get sued?!), but it never feels, to me at least, like never, like The Shining or like they were trying to do The Shining. And I only say that because it occurred to me about 2/3 of the way through the movie that that idea had been put forth and that I just really wasn't feeling it. Likely this is largely because the father is the least prominent character in the film, to the degree that I actually forgot he was even in the movie TWICE before he came back on screen and I was like, \"Oh, shit, I forgot there was a dad in all this.\" But also because this house isn't really haunted, it's inhabited. I'll say no more.\nExcept that I have to say that in some ways, really a lot of them, this movie is actually just a slasher-film. I struggle to understand its connection with the mythology of City Of The Living Dead and The Beyond. I'm sure there were a few lines of dialogue somewhere that I wasn't paying attention to because why would you pay attention to the dialogue in this film, but I missed 'em.\nNow, it sounds like I'm dogging this film, but I'm not. I liked it, for what it is. As usual, Fulci is good with cameras and sets and setting the mood.\nAnd the film has really good kills for the budget, for what that's worth, and has a wonderfully batshit craziness about it. Like, I feel like, this movie might actually make simultaneously the most and least sense of the Trilogy: the most because the story is actually, ultimately, so simple, and the least because even with that simplicity, you're still left scratching your head. For example, it is strongly hinted that the nanny is a puppet of the villain, so why does the villain just randomly murder her when she's doing her job, other than because they needed another kill? I mean, it was foreshadowed, but does it make any sense even with the foreshadowing?\nRegardless, I LOVED this shit, which kinda makse the whole thing worthwhile...\nbut also makes you wish the movie was just a little more focused, particularly on this part of the movie. I mean, it somehow almost comes as a surprise that the story is about this and then you're like, oh, that's what this is all about, awesome... but it's so tenuous.\nAnyway, the great thing about it is that it's still so Fulcian that it ends up being worth watching regardless of its shortcomings; it just has great mood, especially for The Season.\nBut man, whoever said it was so right, that fucking kid is just unbearable.\nHouse By The Cemetery is awesome. Bob is the MVP.\nMotel Hell is dumb fun. I wrote an essay about it my freshman year of college.\nMy favourite part is when the dad starts hitting the door with an axe Shining-style and barely misses the kid, to everyone's disappointment.\nAlso, lol Bob. Right up there with the little person in Burial Ground in terms of awful child performances.\nAs far as posters go, this one's pretty neat:\nI'm sticking with my theory that Bob is a wonderful actor who was sabotaged by the worst voice-over ever.\n#TeamBob\nPretty nice horror comedy that just goes there at times.\nI can't imagine doing 31 movies all of the same subgenre in one month. I'd be bored out of my skull by mid-October. Maybe setting them in the same decade of release (the 1980s) might be a better idea?\nOne good thing about Rumpled's delay is that I'm actually diving into the genre this year. Working through Les Diaboliques next and then plan on tackling Hellraiser and the 1970s Invasion of the Bodysnatchers later this month. All first time watches.\nRight up there with the little person in Burial Ground in terms of awful child performances.\nAs for the topic of conversation, because of House of the Cemetary, me and my brother have greeted eachother for years with the line \"Yoohoo, Bob\", to everyone in my families confusion. So that abominable performance has had some purpose in my life.\nYeah, I was trying to decide which one to use and considered that one due to awesomeness, but it's also very deceptive (as\nthere is no one that remotely resembles the guy with the knife in the film\nI decided to go with the VHS cover that always tempted me as a kid.\nHonestly, I did consider that during my viewing. Same with Catriona MacColl.\nI assume the instructions the artist got were \"There's a house, and a cemetery and somebody gets stabbed. Figure it out.\"\nAw, I actually like her in these movies. Her real voice is much nicer than her dubbed ones, though.\nNo, that's what I'm saying is that I think her more shrill moments in this film are probably the result of bad dubbing. I think she's great, she's the one recurring actor in all three films and I think she adds to all three.\nAnd what the Holy Shit?\nThis is probably the freakiest and legitimately scariest old cartoon I've seen and I feel like I've mined this vein for 40 years.\nAnd of course, one of the best ever:\nI've been watching mostly films I'm already familiar with this month. Always playing the curator to educate those friends who don't watch as many movies as I do.\nI watched The Stepford Wives for the first time in some time, and while the film has become a bit of a cliched metaphor, the film itself deserves some more respect for its slow-burn build up. It makes a good double feature with the '78 Invasion of the Body Snatchers, both great conspiratorial horror films based on the social anxieties of changing times.\nThere are many giallos on Prime, but especially Don't Torture a Duckling, What Have You Done to Solange?, and Your Vice is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key, which are all top-shelf entries.\nAlso on Prime, for Boris Karloff fans, two minor but enjoyable films, The Devil Commands and The Man They Could Not Hang, both quasi-horror and worth a look.\nOh, I think Stepford Wives is totally legit, I guess I came up during a time when it was really respected even by non-horror adults, so I've always taken it very seriously. And I think it would pair really well with IotBS, which is a personal fave of mine and my friends both together and separately.\nAll three of those are movies I've had some circling interest in for a long time and would like to have watched them in September to build up to this month. It was fully my intention to watch several giallos leading up to October, and yet somehow I ended up watching none. After Thriller-September and Horror-October, I was planning a really uplifting November of comedies and classics, but I do want to catch those soon. (If you knew me personally, you'd know that I intensely want to see Your Vice Is A Locked Room for the title alone.\nYou know, I have actually never seen a Karloff movie I didn't like. Amusingly, the least of them to me, so far at least, would be The Mummy. But tMTCNH has been in my queue for an age and I keep sort of keeping it around for a night when I'm not in the mood for modern horror and I don't have a lot of time.\nWell, I actually... I've been having a hard time deciding what to say about this movie.\nSo, I am a sucker for titles and posters, and can be convinced to at least give almost anything a spin if it has one or the other or both. In this case, ever since I saw Phantasm for the first time, many years ago, I have wanted to see a horror movie set in a mausoleum. It just seems like it writes itself. Whether or not it writes 90 minutes of screen-time is another matter, but being trapped inside one of those big mausoleums where literally hundreds of people are buried in their drawers and maybe there's a passageway to an older section where people were buried a hundred or two hundred or however many years ago, and then maybe even that place has passage to an even older, darker place where who knows what dwells...\nAnd yet... it is not entirely NOT that movie.\nSo what the hell is it?\nWell, honestly, it's a lot of this:\nWhich, some years ago, I would not have been able to tolerate. But we've talked a bit this month in this thread and others about learning over many, many years to let more things slide in the interest of enjoying a movie and what we're actually willing to give a pass in the horror genre if a movie really tried, if it came close, or even, in some cases, it totally fucking failed, but spectacularly.\nWell, that skill we've all developed really helps with this movie, not because it sucks, because it will help you see how it doesn't. And how even ol' Green Eyes up there actually kinda works in the context of this film and this budget.\nLet me tell you a little bit about the story first.\nThis is about a woman who, as a child attends the funeral of her mother whose death... we'll leave that be. While at the funeral, she hears a voice in the cemetery calling her name and follows it to the entrance to an old mausoleum under the name Nomed. Yes, no joke, the family name is Nomed and no one sees any of this coming. Nilbog, anyone? Inside she has an experience which may or may not have been real before she is whisked away by a family friend.\nFast-forward 20 years and Susan is now heir to the family fortune but with that fortune, perhaps something more comes to the heir? Perhaps whatever happened in that mausoleum was more than just the fantasy of a traumatized child. As she flashes her glowing green eyes at people, some of them don't feel so good.\nAnd some fare perhaps even worse. (I can't remember what the hell this guy landed on, but, as a doctor, I'm not sure he's gonna be ok.)\nCan Susan be freed from the curse that seems to be upon her? Can her husband, Marjoe Gortner of Starcrash fame, help to save her? Can anyone save her and anyone unlucky enough to cross her path? We shall see, if we can tolerate a really low-budget and a former Playboy model in the lead role whose eyes glow green with post-production laser-animation whenever she strikes.\nWhy am I not slamming this movie? Honestly, it's just not that fucking bad. When y'all talk about movies like that one CT brought up, Demon Wind, where it's just fabulously awful, and yet we watch it, a movie like this, which actually has a cogent story that legitimately holds together until the final credits roll, regardless of how low-budget it may be, how touch-and-go the dialogue and the acting may be, and in spite of laser-eyed She-Hulk, has to be considered. And so I found myself not only actually liking this movie, but kinda rooting for it, ya know? Like, \"Come on, baby, hold together, we only got 25 minutes to go, you can do it!\"\nSo, I'm kinda on this movie's side. In my opinion, within the parameters that it had, it works, and at this level of low-budget filmmaking, that's often gotta be enough.\nSo, while The Chicago Sun Times may have called it \"one of the weakest horror films one is likely to see\", and RottenTomatoes doesn't even have any Critics Reviews for the film, I side with this AllMovie business which calls it \"a modest but well-wrought occult horror film\".\nNo doubt this movie is better than my previous experience with it would indicate. As I mentioned in another thread, when I saw it like a decade ago, Netflix was yet again using a print of a movie that probably should have just been thrown in the garbage as it was so dark it appeared the entire movie took place at night and that the last 20 minutes were almost imperceptible. I thought this was just the quality of the movie. But it made it barely watchable and made the movie seem even much cheaper than it is.\nSo this movie is actually kinda cool.\nBut fuck is it slow. And man is it fulla shit.\nI mean, you can call it a slow-burn if you want, but I'd probably just stop at slow. It was a struggle to keep my attention on it throughout, even though I'm in a hotel room by myself with nothing else to do.\nThere really isn't much action in the film so you figure they're going to at least do shocking kills or some gore or something to ratchet things up to an engaging level, but they do not.\nEvery kill in the movie is the same. One of the Aquatic Death Team just pulls somebody under the water and that's it. We are told after the second guy is killed that he was drowned (after it was obvious that the first guy drowned). The next guy is drowned. The guy after that is also drowned. The person after that... yup. There's just a lot of drowning. Literally everyone in the movie is just pulled underwater, except of course for the person who is killed off-screen. Who was also drowned. Now, I'm not saying I wanna be drowned, but if your movie is really slow-paced, you have to make the moments of excitement exciting, yet this movie contains nary a drop of blood except for what appears to have been a slight abrasion on the forehead of a somebody who was... drowned, and even the drownings actually happen like really quickly, not drawn out to add drama to them or anything, you just kinda get caught and dragged underwater and then you're outta the movie. I realize this may save a lot of money on the FX budget, which was like 10 dollars on this movie, all spent on goggles, but fuck.\nNow this on its own is enough to make the movie boring but not enough to make it bad. However, there are some real plot problems too, I mean big, nonsensical shit.\nWe're given a backstory about Peter Cushing being the commander of this SS Aquatic Death Squad and that's all fine, but then there's some implication that this particular time that the main characters have come has doomed them, but that is never explained. Then he still tells them they have to leave and if he sees them at all he'll shoot them, even though he was gonna help them like 5 minutes ago. Then he runs around the island. He gives you this, aha!, this must be the special time that Nazi Zombies rise and we're gonna learn what and/or why, but what that is or why or anything is just dropped from the movie and never picked up again. We assume that this must have something to do with the weird sunlight the movie makes a point of earlier, but that is also never explained and happens before. This confusion is compounded when Peter Cushing goes running around the island I guess looking for the zombies but what his goal is is never explained. When he sees them he tries to call out orders to them but they just ignore him. They don't come after him and they don't obey, they just like glance at him and wander off in another direction. Then, paradoxically, they just sneak up and kill him a few minutes later. No explanation of why they would kill their old commander or why he would think they wouldn't or why they didn't go after him when he was yelling orders at them or what the fuck, just as random as if he was a red-shirt. But this also suggests that this must be the first time they've ever risen in all these years, otherwise Cushing, who has been on the island since WWII, would already have been randomly killed by them. So this must be some special first-awakening-since-WWII magic time. But none of that gets explained either.\nThe next thing is that we are shown that if you just rip the goggles off these guys they almost instantly die. Except for the ones who aren't wearing goggles, who I guess don't? But then this is re-established later. This does not, however, lead to our heroes trying to rip the goggles off of them, but rather to some leap in logic that, and I'm not making this up, since the zombies hate light (despite almost the entire movie taking place during the day in the sunny Caribbean), since the zombies hate light, we must hide in THE DARK! I'm serious, the \"hero\" actually fucking says this. When that plan gets foiled due to a suddenly developed plot-device, more drowning ensues. Then one of the characters turns out to be blind in a second sudden plot-device in like 5 minutes. So she's drowned by a Nazi without goggles. No explanation there either. Now the zombies just go to sleep for a while in like a pond or something? But then they wake up.\nOur heroes appear to be escaping but just then a Nazi pops outta the water and pulls the guy outta the boat, but he gets their goggles off, so they stagger off and die. Now our heroes are really escaping because they've rowed out like another 20 feet... And then another Nazi pops outta the water and pulls the guy outta the boat. This time... he's drowned.\nBut even though he does not rip off the goggles of THIS zombie during the melee, it doesn't attack the last survivor. It doesn't like do something and then walk away either, it's just no longer in the movie. The last survivor floats out to sea totally unmolested with no explanation.\nNow, I get it, maybe this isn't the sort of movie where you should let things like absolute fucking nonsensical script and half plot/half plotless with random devices just jumping up here and there and direct contradictions to the logic the film has already set down type stuff bother you but jesus. I mean, the movie starts out with a pretty clear narrative, all the way up to the point that it just chucks that narrative right out the fucking window. It's like, for 40 really slow minutes, let's make a good horror movie... alright fuck it, let's just make Zombie Lake.\nI won't even bother with the continuity issues of how it was day, now it seems to suddenly be night so you assume some time has passed but then they show the zombies again and it's clearly daylight, like bright daylight, but then it's suddenly night again.\nDespite all this, the acting isn't half-bad, the directing is not bad at all, I liked the music, and honestly, even boring, logic-defying, half-baked (and I'm being kind) backstory having, only drowning people-ing, broad-daylight yet sun-averse-ing, goggled aquatic Nazi zombies... are kinda cool. So, despite my many frustrations, I didn't hate the movie and while I was getting pretty irritated by the end, I'm not actually sorry I re-watched it.\nThere, that's my re-watch review.\nAnd one of the best horror-cartoons ever:\nWatch it again. Watch it a billion times until you unequivocally love it!\nYeah, it's a movie that I think does a few things well, and how much you end up liking it depends on a lot on how you're approaching it and how willing you are to overlook the things it doesn't do well.\nLike I said, though, I ended up kinda liking it, maybe almost but not quite as much as Killer Fish, because even though it just fell the fuck apart in the second half... eh, what the hell Nazi Aquatic Zombie Death Team.\nZe goggles do nothing!\neh, what the hell Nazi Aquatic Zombie Death Team.\nHonestly that's about the extent of my enjoyment, so if you've reached that same level I'm content. My work here is done.\nYeah, I only wish they had like, stabbed somebody or hung somebody on a hook or... done anything scarier than just pull someone underwater. That would have really made this better.\nI have had to accept an ugly truth over the last 5 or 6 years: The Addams Family just wasn't as good a show as I remember.\nI was a big fan of it as a kid and as a teen I became a huge fan of Chas Addams original cartoons from which the show was spawned.\nThe problem with the television show is that it just relies way too much on the central gag. Stranger comes to house, you trot out Lurch, they get nervous, Thing pops out they get more nervous, the kids come down and have a one-line gag, Fester puts a lightbulb in his mouth, they show the pet lion, everybody runs from the house, rinse, repeat. There are sometimes long stretches without so much as a chuckle.\nI long thought John Astin was THE Gomez Addams, but of course, Raul Julia will forever own that title. Jackie Coogan actually doesn't work that great as Fester to my surprise, it's kind of an iconic character but I dunno, Coogan's portrayal just really doesn't work for me. The kids fair even worse, as neither actually has any personality at all and the entire gag with them usually comes down how they're dressed and maybe some one-line gag they've memorized. Lurch is good.\nBut the person who really shines is Carolyn Jones as Morticia. She seems to be the one person who totally gets it and delivers. She makes every scene she's in better and she really makes that character the center of all the proceedings. She really just seems to hold court in the middle of it all, good and bad.\nIt was much to my surprise that The Munsters, which as a kid I thought was the more \"kiddie\" of the shows is actually the better program. Each character in that show legitimately has something to do other than just show up in costume and there is fairly snappy writing for television. Yvonne DiCarlo does a fine job in that show as well, but a lot of good things around her to work with, and the star of that show is legitimately Herman. Additionally they have scripts that are more than just people being shocked by what they are.\nSo in my shorter pockets of time during this Horrorthon, it will be The Munsters and Scooby-Doo and I'll be leaving the Addams Family to the big-screen.\nWe are the weirdos, mister.\nSay what you want, but The Craft is a pretty damn good witch movie.\nThis probably the 7th or 8th time I've seen it since it came out, as I saw it in the theater, had it on VHS, my wife had it on DVD, and now I've watched it again on an airplane. So I know the beats pretty well and I get to sit back and enjoy the little things in this movie, and this movie takes care to have a lot of them.\nIf there's anyone out there who hasn't seen it, this is the story of three outcast high-school girls, each with deep-seeded conflict with the world around them, who bond over this sort of sham practice of witchcraft they have going on...\n...until the new girl at school joins them and turns out to be an actual witch. The power that Sara, Robin Tunney as the actual witch with a dark past of her own, brings to the group leads to legitimate magic and unexpected consequences as the leader of their little clique takes the power to a dark place.\nA lot of things work really well in this movie in general. It has a solid, coherent narrative that progresses naturally through a real arc. It has good performances for a 90s movie aimed at young people, particularly from Tunney and Fairuza Balk, who's wild beauty and fierce intensity make the \"bad witch\" a real force to be reckoned with. It has heart as the movie takes time to make you understand why each of these girls is so troubled (one is the only black girl at an all-white school, one suffered burns that badly scarred her body, one has lived in poverty in an grim home-life with hints of sexual abuse, one has a history of attempted suicide), but also takes time make you see the gravitas of their actions on their victims. In one of my favorite scenes, the \"mean girl\", played by Christine Taylor, whose racist taunting of Rochelle earlier in the movie leads to a spell being cast on her, is just sitting on the floor in the shower sobbing to herself and looks up at Rochelle to ask, \"Why is this happening to me? What did I do to deserve this?\", as Rochelle backs away horrified. It's a powerful moment for a film like this. Another is Neve Campbell sobbing face-down on the treatment table as needles are painfully jabbed into her scars over and over again in an experimental treatment to try to rid her of her deformity.\nAnother thing is how mean this film is willing to get. People die. A spell gone wrong turns into a fumbling date-rape. Cruel psychological games are played. I mean cruel. Things go bad as the group starts to fracture over too much power.\nBut another thing I like a lot about this movie is that it keeps its details consistent. Well, first it bothers to have details, then it keeps them consistent. There is an ongoing thing with snakes, but we find as the movie goes along that the \"good witch\" has a backstory with snakes, it's not just a trope thrown in for effect. That is carried further when the \"bad witch\" brings a snake to a ritual and begins to be associated with \"the serpent\".\nAnother thing I really enjoyed in these details was the references to the four witches of The Wizard Of Oz; I thought it was a nice thing to include.\nOne negative I would certainly point out was the distraction of the soundtrack using cover versions of famous songs. That may be nit-picky but it really stuck out when you're using music by The Smiths and Portishead but not performed by The Smiths and Portishead. I realize they wanted to use contemporary bands and give it a current vibe, but at times it gave it more of a cheaper, television-like feel at times. Not that big a deal considering the shortcomings of a lot of the stuff we watch around here.\nAnyway, after I finished this I concluded that this really is one of the better witch/witchcraft movies out there. Whether the \"high-school witches\" thing feels a little too 90s for you or it just seems like a glorified episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer,\nCarolyn Jones was indeed a beautiful woman.\nBut Yvonne DeCarlo had her moments, folks.\nOh, no doubt. Both interesting women, Ive read a little bit about them.",

Moments from Snake Eater like the showdown with Ocelot have been remastered using the Fox engine (which powers Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain). This makes it look like a brand-new game--the quality of its visuals are far beyond what was included in the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection--only this is for what amounts to a casino game release in Japan, not a Snake Eater remaster.\nMore specifically, this is a pachislot machine, which is essentially a slot machine. It's set for release in Japan on October 17 and will feature a 32-inch HD screen for displaying the footage seen in the new trailer.\nYou can see some of these units in action below, which were being checked out by media members in Japan today.\nhttp://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/3095471-mgs1.jpg\" data-ref-id=\"1300-3095471\" data-ratio=\"0.75\" data-width=\"1200\" data-embed-type=\"image\" style=\"width: 1200px\">\nImage source: metalgear_slot on Twitter\nA new entry in the Metal Gear series (or any further remasters) have not yet been announced.

        "raw_content": "In this episode, I chat with Justin and Kelsey about their gaming history. Find out how they got into gaming, what their favourite games are, and what they\u2019re looking forward to next. Then, comment with how you got into gaming!\nhttps://youtu.be/Z9wXy2ZZnwc\nSorry, no audio available yet. I\u2019m maxed out on our free podcast plan and I\u2019m in the middle of figuring out a new solution.\nHello there good people, at long last we have another update! What\u2019s happening in the game? What is The Dev Report? All is answered within. Please note, that we wanted to do this as a video blog, but we had technical difficulties and the video didn\u2019t work. Unfortunately, we recorded a few eps this way, so audio only, so sorry about that. We\u2019ll get all this figured out one day! Anyway, enjoy anyway.\nhttps://youtu.be/3tJRZFpPq38\nhttps://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/crownnation/episodes/2016-12-04T19_50_16-08_00\nHello everyone! I wanted to give an update for those of you in the Edmonton area that I\u2019ll be at the Edmonton Expo, so come by and have a chat! I actually wanted the booth to feature Sunset Over Lievnos, but alas, it wasn\u2019t quite ready to show. Instead, I\u2019m helping promote a book entitled \u201cEye of Verishten\u201d, for which I painted the cover art. You can check the book out over at www.kebarron.com.\nI also wanted to thank those of you who came to chat during Sask Expo last weekend. I wanted to post about it before the show but it slipped through the cracks with all the rushing around getting signage ready for the show. It was a fun show though, and I can\u2019t wait until next weekend to meet more of you! I\u2019ll be at booth G03.\nUpdates and Design Discussion\nYou may have noticed that once again we haven\u2019t been updating as much as we were a few months ago. It seems to be a bit of cycle with us. We\u2019ll update regularly for a period of time and then neglect it for a while. I have been thinking about that lately and I really wanted to discover why we keep doing this. After some thought I have made a few observations that I thought I would share to give any of our followers some insight into what\u2019s going on behind the scenes.\nFirst and foremost I think we started talking about and publicizing our game too early. The last half of last year I spent a great deal of time programming the underlying system for the game and it felt like progress was happening, which it was. We started the Try { Stuff } podcast in an effort to promote the game and engage the community. We were pretty consistent for a little while but ultimately the development in the game couldn\u2019t keep pace for how often we were doing updates (which was every two weeks). Furthermore, we found we were dedicating too much time to updates which took away time from working on the actual game. We decided to shift our frequency to once a month.\nFor February\u2019s update, we had planned on releasing one of the game\u2019s songs and have the composer on the podcast. The song was composed and we liked it a lot but we wanted a few things changed to it. Unfortunatley, our composers keyboard malfunctioned and she lost access to the samples that we wanted to record with. She is still currently trying to get it repaired. We still plan on doing that podcast but the delay bumped that update out of February and March.\nI had intended on doing a different update that revolved around the new screenshots since I had moved on to creating the user interface for the game. Then a strange thing happened. As I was creating the HUD and the menus for the game I ran into a myriad of questions about how the game works. I ultimately realized that what I thought was a solid design document actually had numerous holes. And so I went back to the drawing board with a newfound understanding of how much detail ACUTALLY needs to go into a design document, and it turns out it\u2019s a lot. Chalk that up to inexperience. My work history is more on the side of web applications and smaller specialized applications. Web applications are very modular and you can build and design them that way. Other applications I have done have all been designed to solve a specific problem and so the scope was small. This is the first large-scale project that I have taken on and I\u2019m seeing now that you really need a solid design for the entire project before you can really begin work or you\u2019ll end up with a mess and spending a ton of time later reworking things.\nLuckily, the code I have created so far is a very generic system-level stuff, like input handling, that isn\u2019t impacted by my lack of design to this point. I have spent the better part of the last month ironing out all of the details with the gracious help of my brother and cousin who have both spent hours of their time discussing the pros and cons of the numerous decisions I\u2019ve had to make about the gameplay.\nAt this point, I would say I\u2019m roughly 80% done the comprehensive design and I will be much more confident with continuing with the coding with that in place. Another benefit of doing such a thoughough design is that I\u2019m even more excited about the game now. We had to detail every gameplay element and option and as a result we have come up with some really cool game mechanics as solutions to problems that we came across in the design process. I can\u2019t wait to talk about it more.\nAnyway, for those who have been following this project, thanks for your patience. We\u2019re still moving forward and things are looking better than ever.\nHi everyone. I wanted to wish everyone a happy new year and to give a progress update.\nSo we were doing good for a while there with updating every two weeks with the Try {Stuff} podcast but not so good in the last month. I ended up getting into a productive flow of working on the game that I didn\u2019t want to take time away from it to do a video. So I think we\u2019re going to scale back to monthly updates and see how that goes. I really do like making the podcast so I don\u2019t want to pull away from it entirely.\nProgress on the game is going well. A great deal of the underlying system is in place and I am now starting to work on building all of the games user interfaces. I have already finished the main screens interface and the map. Right now all of the art is placeholder, but as soon as we get something a little closer to the final version I\u2019ll post some screenshots.\nThe story has been written and a full pass on editing has been made. We\u2019re currently getting a few people to do a full read through and get feedback on that. I\u2019m still not sure how exactly we\u2019re going to release it or when, but I think it will be chapter by chapter and I hope it won\u2019t be too long before we can start sharing some of it.\nThat\u2019s all for now but stay tuned in the near future for another episode of Try {Stuff}.\nIn the meantime, follow me on Instagram where I put up some art from time to time:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/officialcrownnation/\nHere is Erika\u2019s Instagram:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/tempeststudioss/\n@tysonvilleneuve\nI just realized that I forgot to update this page with the links for Episode 8 of Try { Stuff }. In this episode we discuss Tyson\u2019s gaming history. Here they are in case you missed it:\nhttps://youtu.be/6lY6Jlm8r6Y\nIn this episode of Try Stuff I find out what game Erika first played, what she has played over the years, and what she is playing now. This podcast is only 13 minutes long, so check it out.\nThe video is available at:\nhttps://youtu.be/7xSafngyhxA\nHere is the latest episode of try stuff. We ask a panel to read chapters 1-3 of the Sunset Over Lievnos prequel story and give us their feedback. In order to fully understand what we are talking about, here is chapters 1-3 for you to read!\nWe are very exited about finally releasing some of this story! Please give us your feedback either in the comments here or over at the Crown Nation Forum\nThis is an audio only podcast and it runs just over 1 hour and 20 minutes. You can listen to is at youtube:\nhttps://youtu.be/SHYnjDgsTO4\nIn episode 4 of Try Stuff we walk about our goals for the Try Stuff podcast as well as the risks of publically designing and talking about the development of Sunset Over Lievnos. Unfortunately, our camera stopped half way through the recording, so there is some video missing at the end. All of the audio is there though.\nhttps://youtu.be/h0T80JZXIZo",

Andy Mitchell (Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, here in Canada we have a very clear way in which we handle GM products. It is very intense. We deal with a scrutiny in terms of any product that would come to market. Our absolute priority is to ensure the safety of Canadian consumers. That is what we do.\nMr. Bernard Bigras (Rosemont\u2014La Petite-Patrie, BQ): Mr. Speaker, Canada, like the United States and Argentina, is contesting these bans at the WTO on the basis of freedom of trade, and contends that the product must be proven unsafe before it is banned, while Europe contends that the product must be proven safe before it is authorized.\nHow can the Canadian government continue its proceedings at the WTO in the name of free trade and ignore the legitimate concerns of consumers over the potential dangers of genetic modification?\nHon. Andy Mitchell (Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, Canada's position is not in terms of free trade. It is in terms of protecting Canadian consumers. Before we provide a licence to any product for distribution in this country, we make absolutely certain that we undertake the necessary investigations to ensure it is safe for Canadian consumers. That is what we do in terms of our licensing process. That is what we have done in the past and that is what we will continue to do in the future.",

Another measure (Senate Bill 3256) was signed to extend the current 72-hour waiting period for handguns to include all guns purchased in Illinois.\nThough expressing appreciation for the intent to improve public safety, opponents underscored concerns with House Bill 2354, citing the overly broad language that allows for third-party allegations that could strip someone of their Second Amendment rights based on very little real evidence. Concerns were also raised there is very limited due process allowed for a respondent in the new law.\nOpponents stressed that when considering legislation that would infringe on a Constitutionally-guaranteed right, the scope of the measure should be as limited, necessary and as precise as possible.\nAdditionally, those challenging Senate Bill 3256 said the law undermines individuals\u2019 Second Amendment rights, but doesn\u2019t address the root problem of gun violence. Opponents said there must be a balance to work in the interest of public safety while also protecting gun owners.

However, she is still being monitored by a medical team. \u201cAs her exposure was very low-risk and she has NO signs or symptoms of infectious disease she will be kept in voluntary isolation. There is no threat to her family or the community. A team has been assigned with monitoring her daily and this work has already commenced even in the first hours following her discharge,\u201d said the ministry in a statement.\nWord quickly spread Friday afternoon that a woman believed to be carrying the virus was at the GPHC, even as President Donald Ramotar was chairing a high-level meeting on how to respond to the threat of the disease that has already spread to Europe and the United States.\nFollowing is the full text of the Ministry of Health statement:\nOn October 24th 2014, GPHC was notified by a private physician of a patient who had recently travelled to a West African nation where Ebola is not present. She went to the Physician for evaluation and treatment of leg pains. During the Physician\u2019s interview, she reported some mild joint pains and was concerned about Chikungunya infection. She had recently returned from a leisure trip to a region in West Africa, so the Private Physician referred her directly to GPHC. The EBOLA response team was immediately summoned and convened and she was placed immediately in isolation for investigation. She reported returning to Guyana, via Suriname, from a West African country where Ebola is NOT currently present. She has not had contact with anyone with sickness of any kind in the last 21 days. She has not had fever at any point, but had taken non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications for joint pains the previous day. This medication could mask a fever of any origin.\nOut of an abundance of precaution, she was monitored by Senior Infectious Disease Specialists until enough time had passed for the medication to wear off. She remained free of fever and had no other symptoms. As such, she was discharged from isolation with any suspicion of Ebola Viral Disease discounted. She will be followed on a daily basis to ensure that fever or other symptoms do not develop.\nAs her exposure was very low-risk and she has NO signs or symptoms of infectious disease she will be kept in voluntary isolation. There is no threat to her family or the community. A team has been assigned with monitoring her daily and this work has already commenced even in the first hours following her discharge.\nPrevious: High-level anti-Ebola talks in Guyana\nNext: Lethem Police Officer-in-Charge shot at night club brawl",

        "raw_content": "I Will Tell You What I\u2019m Doin\u2019 This Summer Braa\nThe end of the year is approaching, which means that summer is coming fast. Everyone is pushing through finals waiting for that final bell to ring announcing summer. Many students have already planned out their vacation. Some are spending it by the pool, laughing with friends, or hiding inside from the Arizona heat. Others may be traveling to another country, going on a cruise, visiting family, or down at the beach having fun in the sun, while some don\u2019t have any summer plans and are just trying to push through to the end of summer. There are also people who can only venture off to exotic locations for summer in their dreams.\nA good place to spend your summer, besides indoors, is at a river or lake. There may not be any beaches in Arizona, but you can still grab a few friends, a bathing suit, and go down to the lake. It is a great way to cool off from the heat and isn\u2019t very costly.\nAnother way to spend your summer is by taking a drive to some national landmarks, like the Grand Canyon, although it may be best to do that on one of the cooler days. No matter when you go, don\u2019t forget water!\nFreshman Kaylor Swayzee plans on spending some of her summer in Paris, France. While not everyone can afford to venture that far from home, taking a road trip with your family is a very popular way to spend your summer. It can be a great way to make new memories and gain new experiences.\nAnother Greenway student who plans on leaving the country is Freshman Minerva Siddarthan. She is going to visit her aunt in India for her wedding. There is also a lot of sight-seeing she might be able to fit in to her busy schedule of helping with the wedding.\nFor those who don\u2019t want to leave the comfort of their home, something to do during summer is invite over a couple of friends and pull out the old board games and DVDs. It could be one big game/movie night with popcorn and staying up until the next day. This is also something anyone could do with their family.\nFreshman Charity Maley plans on spending her summer at home, catching up on sleep and hanging out with friends. Why spend money on some big trip when you can have an amazing summer right here at home with your friends, family, and bed?\nFreshman Lilliana Hardy also hopes to spend her summer in the presence of her friends and family. She says that the farthest she needs to go is to her friend\u2019s house.\nSophomore Amber Hobbs doesn\u2019t have confirmed summer plans, but she knows for certain that there will be a summer assignment or two. Even some of the best summers may involve a little homework.\nNo matter who you spend your summer with, or where you spend it, the most important thing is that you enjoy it. Where do you plan to spend your summer?",

        "raw_content": "Home News Breaking News Clinton and Kaine Debut the Democratic Ticket in Florida\nClinton and Kaine Debut the Democratic Ticket in Florida\nThe newly formed Democratic ticket took the stage for the first time in Miami, showing off a partnership that prizes steadiness over flashiness.\nAs Hillary Clinton presented her running mate, Sen. Timothy M. Kaine (Va.), to a roaring crowd of supporters, she noted that her choice stood in clear contrast to Republican nominee Donald Trump and pick for vice president, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.\n\u201cSenator Tim Kaine is everything Donald Trump and Mike Pence are not,\u201d Clinton said. \u201cHe is qualified to step into this job and lead on day one. And he is a progressive who likes to get things done!\u201d\nAs if to prove to those wondering, Kaine put on display the textured biography, long r\u00e9sum\u00e9 and demeanor that helped him become the last man standing in Clinton\u2019s running mate search. He presented himself as pubic servant whom people from a wide range of upbringings and ethnicities could find something to identify with. And in essence he did one thing Clinton has struggled to do in this campaign: convey authenticity.\nThe two launched their political marriage here to a crowd of more than 5,000 at Florida International University, a campus that is two-thirds Hispanic. The diverse audience waved American flags and Puerto Rican flags as they waited \u2013 in some cases for hours \u2013 for Clinton and Kaine to take the stage.\nAfter months of deliberation, Clinton announced Friday night that she had chosen Kaine, passing over other candidates who offered more diversity for a self-described \u201cboring\u201d white man from Virginia.\nBut four seconds after opening his mouth, Kaine thrilled the crowd by speaking Spanish.\n\u201cBienvenidos a todos en nuestro pais. Porque somos americanos todos,\u201d Kaine said. \u201cWelcome to everyone in our country, because we are all Americans.\u201d\nKaine had long been a front-runner for the job. He was passed over by President Obama for the vice-presidential job in 2008, but in the intervening years, Kaine beefed up his resume, winning a Senate seat in a key swing state, serving on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to accrue foreign policy experience and establishing himself as a well-liked pragmatist.\nAll along, Clinton\u2019s aides and allies said that her top priority was finding a partner who would not just help her govern, but who is also qualified and prepared to do the job from day one.\nKaine \u2013 a former governor, mayor and Democratic National Committee chairman \u2013 outstripped other contenders with a background that satisfied that qualification, she said.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt in my mind that Tim is qualified to be vice president,\u201d Clinton said. \u201cAt every stage in his career, the people who know him best have voted to give him a promotion.\n\u201cThat\u2019s because he fights for the people he represents and he delivers real results,\u201d she said.\nAlmost immediately, Trump began criticizing Clinton\u2019s pick on Twitter, claiming that Kaine is \u201cowned by the banks\u201d and criticizing him for accepting gifts as governor of Virginia, a practice that was legal at the time in the state.\nBut other Republicans offered praise for the Democrat.\nSen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) declared on Twitter that he had nothing negative to say about Kaine.\n\u201cTrying to count the ways I hate Tim Kaine,\u201d he wrote. \u201cDrawing a blank. Congrats to a good man and a good friend.\u201d\nIndeed, Kaine\u2019s relatively sterling reputation in Washington may be one of his biggest assets in a race that will feature two of the most disliked party nominees in history: Clinton and Trump.\nClinton noted that the two share a lot of history. Both grew up in the Midwest with fathers who were small-business owners. Both graduated from law school to practice law in public service careers. And Kaine, a Roman Catholic, and Clinton, a Methodist, both grew up with faith at the forefront of their lives, she said.\n\u201cAs you get to know Senator Kaine, you will see that his lifelong commitment to social justice is a shining example of his faith in action,\u201d Clinton said.\nOn policy, Kaine highlighted one of his core agreements with Clinton on an issue that she has made a centerpiece of her campaign: gun control.\nKaine served as governor during the 2007 mass shooting at Virginia Tech, which he emotionally recalled as \u201cthe worst day of my life.\u201d\n\u201cWhen the vast majority of Americans and a majority of [the National Rifle Association] members agree that we have to enact common sense gun safety measures, Hillary and I will not rest,\u201d Kaine said. \u201cWe will not rest.\u201d\nThe appearance comes just days before Democrats will gather to host their party\u2019s convention in Philadelphia. And it follows the Republican convention in Cleveland, which was characterized by the public airing of controversies and intraparty divisions.\nWith Kaine on the ticket, Clinton is doubling down on her key argument against Trump: that she would be the steadier hand, prepared to take on the domestic and international challenges that the country faces.\n\u201cMore than anything, what she\u2019s selling is temperament and reliability versus concerns about Trump\u2019s temperament and his impulsiveness,\u201d said David Axelrod, a senior aide in Obama\u2019s presidential campaigns. \u201cKaine is solid as a rock and will project a sense of stability.\u201d\nClinton called Kaine at 7:32 p.m. Friday to offer him the job. Hours earlier, as Kaine traveled in New England for fundraisers, he told his audience that he \u201chonestly\u201d did not know whether he had been picked.\nThe deliberations were shrouded in secrecy for months, with only Clinton, family members and close campaign aides having any idea of what she would decide.\nAccording to a person familiar with the plans for Clinton\u2019s events in Florida, the campaign did not tell staff members on the ground who or even whether a vice-presidential pick would be announced at the events in Tampa on Friday or in Miami on Saturday. The events were planned to accommodate a number of possible running mates.\nBy the time the midday rally began Saturday, newly minted \u201cClinton-Kaine\u201d signs were hanging from the rafters, and a slightly altered playlist included some country music tunes, perhaps a nod to the running mate\u2019s Virginia ties.\nWhile Democrats caution that vice presidents rarely make or break an election, Kaine\u2019s connections to Virginia, a key battleground state, is a bonus.\nAnd facing a Republican opponent like Trump who has run a fundamentally unconventional race, the pick demonstrates that Clinton opted not to insert any unnecessary risk into the race.\nOther candidates might have injected greater enthusiasm in the most liberal corners of the Democratic base, but Kaine\u2019s pragmatism could also help Clinton attract support from middle-of-the-road suburban voters or Republicans who are unsure of whether they could support Trump.\nStill, progressive groups balked at her pick of Kaine, who they said does not reflect the party\u2019s leftward shift. For example, Kaine initially supported the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal opposed by labor groups and some in the Democratic party\u2019s base.\nKaine\u2019s allies dispute that he is anything other than a progressive Democrat. And when it comes to unifying the party, Kaine deployed a tried-and-true tactic: skewering Trump.\n\u201cDo you want a trash-talking president or a bridge builder?\u201d Kaine asked. \u201cDonald Trump trash-talks people with disabilities, trash-talks Mexican Americans, trash-talks women, trash-talks our allies.\u201d\nAll the while, the crowed interrupted him with boos for Trump.\nOn the campaign trail, Kaine\u2019s Midwestern roots shine through. The Missouri native projects a folksiness that belies his Ivy League education, which, given Clinton\u2019s challenges with white male voters, could prove to be an asset.\nHe recalled working in his father\u2019s iron shop and teaching those skills to kids in Honduras. He spoke at length about his father-in-law, former Republican Virginia governor Linwood Holton, who in the 1970s integrated the state\u2019s schools.

If you want to do right, be an optimist.\u201d\nKaine is also a surprisingly apt fit for launching Clinton\u2019s vice-presidential pick in a state such as Florida, a critical battleground with a large number of Hispanic voters. Kaine showed off his Spanish-language skills at several points in his remarks, including to call for comprehensive immigration reform.\nHis fluency will allow him to be a surrogate in Spanish-language media. But by turning down several potential Latino running mates, Clinton and the Democrats will need to look elsewhere for ways to drive up turnout from Hispanic voters, a key bloc of the Democratic base.\nPrevious articleHillary Picks Kaine as VP\nNext articleTen Years After Last Lebanon War, Israel Warns Next One Will Be Far Worse",

        "raw_content": "If you are pregnant and have Diabetes it is important that you keep your blood sugar levels as near normal as possible for the entire duration of your pregnancy. High blood sugar levels during pregnancy could prevent your baby from developing normally and can cause the baby to grow quickly and become overweight, especially in the last three months. This can lead to problems for you during delivery with a heavier baby (greater chance of Caesarian section or forceps delivery). It could also mean that your baby is more likely to be born prematurely or have problems controlling their blood sugar immediately after birth.\nDuring pregnancy and especially in the early stages, it is not uncommon to experience drops in your blood sugar levels or hypos more frequently. You may also find that the warning symptoms of hypoglycemia are different from usual. It is important to be careful about driving, sleeping, or spending long periods of time alone. If you are having frequent hypos, then it may be wise to stop driving altogether until you are around 16 weeks (or more) pregnant.\nBlood Tests and Insulin Doses during Pregnancy:\nYou will be asked to test your blood sugar at least four times daily (before each meal and before bedtime) but extra tests may be necessary. For good control the blood sugar should be kept between 4-6 mmol/L before meals.\nTo achieve this good control, you may need extra insulin injections and your overall insulin dose will increase.\nNo matter how you deliver your baby, your doctors will be working during labor and delivery to keep your blood sugar level under control. At the start of active labor, your insulin needs will drop. You will most likely not need any insulin during labor and for 24 to 72 hours after delivery.\nAfter Delivery:\nWith the baby's arrival, your focus turns to caring for your little one. But keep in mind that to take good care of your baby you need to take good care of yourself. Stick to your habits that helped you keep your blood sugar levels on target during pregnancy.\nAfter your baby arrives, your body begins to recover from the hard work of pregnancy and delivery. During the first weeks at home with a baby, you are likely to be tired, stressed from lack of sleep, and off schedule and low blood sugar is a real danger. Therefore, it is important to check your blood sugar often during this time.\nThere is no reason why women with Diabetes should not breastfeed.\nRemember to consider the following while breastfeeding:\nIncrease the amount of starchy foods you eat at each meal. This is because breast milk is high in carbohydrate\nYou may also require less insulin while breastfeeding as the baby is taking carbohydrate away from you\nInsulin does not pass into the breast milk and is not harmful to the baby\nTest before and after a few feeds so that you know how much to adjust your insulin and food intake",

        "raw_content": "Can OER be uploaded to a Learning Management System (LMS)?\nAs John Rindele pointed out in his presentation at the 2011 Open Education Conference, \u201c\u2026a key factor in OER uptake is the ability of resources to be easily accessed, combined with other course materials, and presented in an appropriate context for learning.\u201d\nAlthough LMSs such as Blackboard, Moodle, Desire2Learn or Sakai usually operate within a \u201cclosed course\u201d paradigm, with institutionally-sanctioned user accounts required to access these materials, educators are free to upload OER to an LMS.\nIf, for example, the OER is an interactive learning object with SCORM packaging, the educator would have to first download and then upload the OER to the LMS for it to work, so that the user and assessment data can be captured.\nHowever, in other cases, educators may choose to provide a hyperlink (URL) to the OER instead of uploading it to the LMS. This is a practical solution when dealing with large file sizes (e.g., videos) or when there is a desire to have access to the most updated version (e.g., an open textbook).\nOne challenge this approach is that the URL may be changed by the OER author or, worse, that the OER content is no longer made available. In such cases, the hyperlink(s) to the OER will be broken and learners will no longer be able to access the content. To avoid such situations, it would make it easier for the educator to upload the OER to the LMS (or at least to download and archive the OER), so they are sure that the students are assured of access during the semester or learning process.\nOER, Learning Management System, LMS, upload, hyperlink, URL, Blackboard, Moodle, Desire2Learn, Sakai, SCORM, archive",

        "raw_content": "\ufeffI\u2019ll start off this post by letting you know that I love books. They\u2019re my weakness. I have enough books to last me a lifetime, but I keep adding to the collection. My favorite kind of books are personal growth books. I love to read about new ways to improve myself and my life. I want to share with you my list of top ten books that will change your life.\nI firmly believe that books are a great investment and a powerful way to transform your life. The books I have listed below are all books that I have personally read and have seen improvements from. I sometimes listen to books using Audible. You can sign up for an Audible free trial and get two audiobooks of your choice for free.\nClick the picture above to get started with your free trial. I love audiobooks because I can listen to them while I\u2019m driving or while I\u2019m on flights. They\u2019re more convenient than physical books and there\u2019s just something so inspiring about listening to the author read their book to you in their own voice. If you\u2019re into personal growth as much as I am, get ready to add some of these books to your reading list!\nThis is the first personal growth book I read and I highly recommend it to everyone. Even if you don\u2019t think you need to grow, you should still read it. This book teaches you how to effectively communicate with and influence others. Through this book, I learned how to cultivate genuine friendships and how to be more empathetic. The biggest thing I have learned from this book is how to get people to agree with my way of thinking while still being respectful towards them. I\u2019ve read this book several times and have embedded the advice deep inside my brain. It\u2019s a must!\n2.

I love this book because the author, Jen, is so relatable and personable. It feels like a friend is talking to me when I read this book. It\u2019s inspiring, empowering and fun. This book completely changed the way I view myself. Because of this book, I stopped feeling sorry for myself and doubting myself. This book taught me to analyze my self-destructing thoughts and actions and how to destroy them. As a result, I learned how to take big risks and how to create a life I love living.\n3. Crushing It!: How Great Entrepreneurs Build Their Business and Influence-and How You Can, Too by Gary Vaynerchuk\nGary Vaynerchuk is a genius. He never ceases to amaze me.

This book taught me how to change my mindset about social media so I can accomplish more.

This is the one book that my husband swears by. It completely transformed his life. This book has taught the both of us how to use our time more efficiently. After reading this book, I realized that there is a difference between being productive and being busy. This book taught us how to setup our business properly so we can work from anywhere and travel wherever we want to. This book has altered our perception about life and time management. If I had to pick only one book to recommend to you from this list, it would be this one.\n6.

This book taught me that if I want to grow rich, I have to buy things that generate income. I learned that I should stop spending my money on things that will cost me more money in the long run such as fancy cars and huge houses. My biggest takeaway from this book is that you should let your money work for you rather than spending your whole life working for money.\n7.

Some of these people include Ray Dalio, Maria Sharapova, Terry Crews and many more. These leaders share their insights about failure, success, relationships, money, habits, learning and other topics. This book is one of my all time favorites.\n9.

        "raw_content": "The beautifully carved tombstones in some of the old cemeteries and the fine stone carving of the Hukuru Miskiiy in Male' bear witness to the intricate skills of Maldivian stone carvers of the past. Maldivians are deft craftsman producing beautifully crafted pieces mostly out of what is available locally. Although many of the skills have been passed on from generation to generation and lives on even today.The art calligraphy has strong connections with the Islam. Old and new mosques display beautifully penned versus from the Holy Quran. The Islamic Center exhibits some of the finest samples of the work of modern calligraphers in the country. While many crafts have become obsolete, others have found new life with the advent of tourism. The production of ornaments from tortoise shells and black coral once valued by visitors has now ceased completely because of the growing careness among the public on the need to preserve the environment\nWooden Lacquer Ware\nPerhaps the most distinctive of the Maldivian handicrafts, these are almost exlclusively produced in Thulhaadhoo in Baa Atoll. Liye Laajehun as it is called in Dhivehi involves the process of shaping and hollowing out pieces of wood to form beautifully crafted boxes, containers and ornamental objects. Made from the local funa, (Alexandrian laurel) which grows abundantly throughout the country, they come in various shapes and sizes; small pillboxes, vases of various sizes to round and oval plates with lids. These elegant pieces are lacquered in strands of red, black and yellow resin and delicately carved with flowing flowery patterns.\nBeautiful red mats are woven throughout the country, the most famous of which are those that are woven by the women of Gadhdhoo in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll. Thundu Kunaa as they are known in Dhivehi ranges in size from that of a place mat to a full size single mattress. The women of Gadhdhoo collect the reeds called haa from the nearby island of Fioari. They are dried in the sun and stained with natural dyes, the colour varying from fawn to black. These mats with their intricate abstract designs are woven on a handloom according to the imagination and skill of the weaver.\nBodu Beru is the most popular form of music and dance in the country, enjoyed by the young and the old, men and women. There is a Bodu Beru troupe in almost every inhabited island and is regularly played at special functions and festivalss. The musical instruments used in Bodu Beru consist of three or four drums and a variety of percussion instruments. The drums are made from hollowed coconut wood and covered on both ends with manta ray skin or goat hide. A lead singer chants the lyrics and a chorus of 10 to 15 follows as they clap to the beat of the drums. The rhythm build as the song continues until it reaches a frenzied crescendo.\nAs the rhythm picks up, dancers come out from amongst the troupe swaying to the rhythm. As the beat becomes faster the dancers leap and jerk to the beat as if in a trance. Onlookers join in the clapping and dancing. Old men, suddenly catch a stray rhythm and throw themselves into the arena. To wild applause from the crowd they gyrate and grimace in their dance, passing on to the young what they have learnt from their forefathers. According to some historians Bodu Beru was introduced to the country in the early 19th century by African slaves. During the reign of Mueenuddeen I these slaves were liberated and sent to Feridhoo in Ari Atoll. It is believed that bodu beru spread out from there to become one of the most popular forms of entertainment in the country.\nThaara also holds a special place in local entertainment. Two lines of men attired in white sit on the ground and sing beating hand drums while others dance between them. Thaara is believed to have been introduced from the Middle East in the seventeenth century. Today Thaara is only played at national events.\nDhandijehun\nDhandijehun is another form of entertainment, which is popular throughout the country. This is mostly performed to celebrate festive events such as Eid and other national occasions\nBandiya Jehun\nBandiyaa Jehun is a more popular form of dance performed by young women. The women carrying metal water pots stand in two lines facing each. They sing and dance to melodious tunes while taping the rhythm on the pots with rings worn on the fingers. Although western pop and Indian music is quite popular today, traditional forms of music and song that have been passed down to us by our ancestors survive. Raivaru, farihi and bandhi are all unique styles of singing that are still practiced by people around the country.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Product Catalog \u00bb Reviews of 'War of the Twins'\nReviews of 'War of the Twins'\nHere are the visitor reviews we have of War of the Twins. For more information about this title, please visit the item detail page.\nReviewer: AriannaLisa\nI just recently finished this book. I new i would love this series because my favorite character is Raistlin, surprisingly enough, and this trilogy is all about him. I believed this book to be excellently written and the plot to be very intriguing. The way the wrote it, i liked Raistlin even more because of the way he was portrayed. He was at times evil and at times good at times human and a time a power hungry mage. That's all i can say about that without giving away the book. The way they played Caramon was also interesting, he was a loving twin but was slowly realizing Raistlin's evil. The development of Tas was great, he became more and more sincere and serious but still keeping his kender ways. I kinda disliked Lady Crysania, but that was just a matter of opinion. All in all, this was a great book rivaling the greatness of the DragonLance Chronicles. I shall say no more but let you go and get the book for yourself to read. But i fell into the world of Krynn and didn't come out untill i finished the book so i say all fans should read this book.\nReviewer: Dark One\nOk, this may not be the only book about Raistlin but I love this book as it helped me understand DL's \"primere character\". From Autumn Twilight to Legends I, I kinda liked Raistlin because he was so cool with his powers and all... But after this book I HATED RAISTLIN! Damn it, he could've just moved in with Caramon and Tika togehter with Crysania but he had to break his brother's heart, the brother who loved him so much. I mean he didn't give a crap for his brother! One of the highlights of this book is the camaraderie between the twins, though. It was kinda touching how they were able to work together at least temporarily, but the selfish Raistlin just stabbed Caramon in the back and almost killed the man.\nI love this book mainly due to the short, pleasant bond between the twins and it somehow made me feel I should treat my brother better (honest! I know it sounds kinda corny though). After the first chapter featuring Tasslehoff in the book, I couldn't help but say to my brother:\" quick! Grab your pouches and hoopak and put on a pair of blue leggings! Grow a topknot and I'll grab my gods-endowed celestial swords, we're going on a huge adventure through time!!!\"\nWar of the Twins is the second book in the Legends Trilogy by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. We are now deeper into the story of Caramon and Raistlin Majere's defining story. They have a great battle ahead of them, as they are flung forward in time. But the battle is not only against their enemies, but against themselves.\nWar of the Twins is a great improvement from Time of the Twins. This volume had a more captivating plotline that included much more battles and action.\nIt was also a more suspenseful novel. There were many instances where it seemed the story could no longer go on because of the many surprises in the book. Nothing was certain, even to the very end.\nThe way the story plays itself out is amazing. We are almost reading two stories at once, because we are seeing two histories play out differently.\nFistandantilus' fate is known to us. We know he fails, but what exactly happened we are not sure. That story is played out at the same time as Raistlin's, who is trying to achieve victory where Fistandantilus failed.\nBoth their stories are happened before us. Where Fisty did something wrong, we can see Raistlin do it right. It's a great way to describe two things at once.\nRaistlin's ambition is fully blooming in War of the Twins. He is ruthless, and blinded by the fact that what he is doing is blasphemy. How can he possibly succeed? Caramon Majere is showing that he is great at being a fool. I don't like this Caramon. He has hit rock bottom. He cannot complete what he has been sent to do. He is completely under control his brother's will, as he has been since we saw him in the Chronicles. He has not changed, but he better soon.\nThe book goes along at a great pace. Quite a bit more happens in this book than in the first volume of the series. More choices are made, more actions are taken, and more battles are fought. The book never dragged on. It kept you enthralled, and never wanting more.\nIf there is one injustice that this book does is its ending. It's not that it's not good, or expected. It's the fact that it's a cliffhanger. You read the last word, and wonder where the rest of the book went. The ending makes you think. Why did it happen? What happens now? Many questions are left unanswered and at the right time. When everything seemed in place, something turns it upside down. Test of the Twins the final installment is going to be a great one. I can smell it.\nAs we await for the final volume of the Legends Trilogy, we can only wonder about what will happen. Nothing is certain and anything can happen. We await the fate of Raistlin and is quest for godly status. We wonder if Caramon can overcome personal struggles. We debate on whether Crysania can find a way to understand her purpose and her faith. And with Tasslehoff, nothing is certain!",

        "raw_content": "How to Become a Veterinary Nutritionist\nJust like any living creature, an animal's diet can significantly impact its performance. Whether it's to improve athletic ability, or to combat disease or other physical ailments, the job of studying the nutritional value and dietary restrictions for animals falls on veterinary specialists, known as nutritionists. However, unlike their human counterparts, the educational and career path options for Veterinary Nutritionists is complex and requires several years of advanced training.\nA veterinary nutritionist is a board certified Doctor of Veterinary Medicine that specializes in the area of animal nutrition. This is significantly different from human nutritionists \u2014 who by definition do not require advanced training \u2014 that would fall on a Registered Dietitian. Some of the typical job duties of a Board Certified Veterinary Nutritionist includes:\nEvaluating the medical condition and physical changes of animals.\nFormulating diets for healthy and sick animals.\nBalancing food rations for performance-based animals or those in production capacities.\nDeveloping special dietary needs for the reduction of or management of diseases or other medical conditions.\nOverseeing nutritional technicians or other staff members.\nProviding private consultations with pet or animal owners, and often with general veterinary practitioners.\nIt's also typical for veterinary nutritionists to find employment as nutritional analysts with private pet food companies, pharmaceuticals, and public zoos. There a select group of veterinary nutritionists that provide lecture services at veterinary colleges and eventually matriculate to become instructors themselves. This specialty is one that allows candidates to select different categories of animal groups \u2014 choosing between large animals, small animals, and equine animals.\nThe Educational Requirements for Becoming a Veterinary Nutritionist\nThe educational path to becoming a Veterinary Nutritionist begins by completing a Bachelor Degree, proceeding to Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and eventually board certification. The board certification and residency process is monitored and administered by The American College of Veterinary Nutrition.\nStep by Step Educational Path of a Veterinary Nutritionist\nHaving a general understanding of food, nutrition, and biological sciences of animal species is the focal point of the first phase of education for becoming a Veterinary Nutritionist. The first degree required is a bachelor degree, which must be completed at an accredited college or university. The primary course study will include a strong focus on general nutrition, mathematics, communications, and biological sciences; such as physiology, biology, chemistry and physics. It's also during this phase of education that a potential veterinary nutritionist should consider enrolling in case-study research, or volunteering in local animal shelters, clinics or hospitals. This will give the candidate additional experience and hands-on experience that not only improves their resume \u2014 but offers practical knowledge that they can apply later in their educational process.\nBecoming a licensed Doctor of Veterinary Medicine is the next step in the educational track for a Veterinary Nutritionist. And, like any other Veterinarian, the nutritionist will receive this degree from an accredited Veterinary College. This will include a four-year program, in which the first two years will deal with general animal virology, anatomy, physiology, and nutrition.\nDuring the third and fourth years, the classroom study morphs into clinical application, where the Veterinary student will be given the opportunity to increase their base of knowledge and practice what they've learned in the classroom, in a clinical setting. After the educational process is complete, the candidate will take the licensing North American Veterinary Licensing Exam. They must pass this exam to be considered a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM). Most states require additional certification to practice in each state.\nComplete a Veterinary Nutritionist Residency Program\nOnce a candidate has become a licensed DVM, the newly-crowned Veterinarian will begin their career path to focus on residency training \u2014 and finally; board certification in the specialty of nutrition. However, before one is able to sit before the board for certification and testing, they must fill three requirements:\nMust complete residency training. The residency program is overseen by an existing Veterinary Nutritionist who is a board certified diplomate of the ACVN. This program includes three years of specific training and is comprised of one year of internship or clinical experience, plus two years of residency (which consists of research, teaching and clinical studies in Veterinary nutrition.)\nMust complete and publish medical journal. This is typical of any board certification in Veterinary medicine specialties.\nPass the comprehensive examination to become board certified. The American College of Veterinary Nutrition administers this examination, which includes oral, written and practical exams.\nOnce the candidate passes the exam and fulfills the other requirements, they are granted diplomate status in the specialty of Veterinary Nutrition. According to the ACVN, there were a total of 81 ACVN board certified diplomats as of December of 2012.\nUnlike other specialties, however, diplomats of the ACVN must continually add educational credits on an annual basis to maintain their board certified status. The credits can be earned by attending lectures, conferences, and completing case study research.\nUnderstanding the Career Path of Becoming a Veterinary Nutritionist\nCareer Options for Veterinary Nutritionists\nThe field of Veterinary Nutrition is one that offers multiple employment opportunities for the qualified candidate. Once receiving board certification, a newly anointed Veterinarian Nutritionist may choose to follow specialties in three animal sections:\nLarge animal nutrition\nEquine animal nutrition\nIn general, the career options for nutritionists include working in private veterinary practices or hospitals, seeking employment with manufacturers of animal feed or supplements, zoos, and educational research facilities, or within academia.\nAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the profession of Veterinary Nutritionist is one of the more lucrative in the Veterinary industry. A survey completed in 2007 by the American Veterinary Medical Association indicated that in many cases, Veterinary Nutritionists pulled in nearly $200,000 in annual salary. This was primarily for board certified diplomats that worked for corporate companies, ranging from pharmaceutical to animal feed and supplement manufacturers. Those who choose to work in private practice tend to have reduced salaries. However, the BLS does not have accurate data to share.\nAn interesting fact is that many aspiring veterinary nutritionists can earn an average salary ranging from $25,000 to $35,000 per year during residency training.\nThe career outlook for Veterinary Nutritionists is very optimistic. According to the BLS, the entire Veterinary profession looks to increase by a factor of 35 percent within the next five years. This type of growth rate is very rare in any medical industry. Contributing factors include:\nMore pet owners are beginning to spend larger dollars on specialty treatments; including nutritional consultations.\nMore animal feed and supplement companies are placing a higher focus on natural food ingredients; and require the expertise of Veterinary Nutritionists to discover blends that produce targeted results.\nThe career path of becoming a Veterinary Nutritionist is not a simple one to navigate. However, when a candidate is determined, has a structured educational plan in place and the right attitude to complete the challenging curriculum; achieving success in this profession is very possible. It's also a profession that can be financially lucrative and personally rewarding \u2014 especially for individuals who are predisposed to helping animals improve their quality of life.\nThe American Academy of Veterinary Nutrition\nAnimal Nutrition Association\nAZA Nutrition Advisory:Incorporating the Science of Nutrition Into the Management of Captive Animals",

        "title": "John Benedict (1676-1766) - Doug Sinclair's Archives",
        "raw_content": "The wife of John wasn't Mary Hoyt, daughter of John and Mary (Lindall) Hoyt, as some publications claim. This idea is a complilation of errors and speculation. The first in line may be The Genealogy of the Benedicts in America, by Henry Marvin Benedict, which simply says his wife was \"Mary (Haite?).\" Benedict provides no sources for his work. Later writes treated this speculation as fact, and decided she was John Hoyt's daughter Mary since she was born at the right time. It is very likely she was named Mary, since there was a gravestone (which no longer exists) in East Norwalk, a transcription of which says she was the wife of John Benedict and died on 5 June 1749, age 72.\nThere is a 1712 agreement among the heirs of John Hoyt that includes their signatures and marks. As was usual in probate documents, the names are evidently in order of birth among the children and divided by gender. Among the women, John's widow Hannah is first, then daughter Deborah (Hoyt) Barnum, then Mary Hoyt, who is said to have been the Mary who was widow of John's youngest child Nathaniel Hoyt. Nathaniel had recently died as well, and Mary must have had a right to part of John's estate for that reason. If she were John's daughter Mary she would have signed before Deborah, being two years older. Even if she was John's daughter, her signature as \"Mary Hoyt\" would prove she wasn't married. As with Francis Barnum, who also signed the agreement, sons-in-law were considered heirs as well, and there are no Benedicts on this list. The evidence indicates John's daughter Mary died before him, probably as a child. David Hoyt's A Genealogical History of the Hoyt, Haight, and Hight Families, page 324, published a year after the Benedict genealogy, doesn't speculate that a woman named Hoyt married John Benedict.\nTo further complicate the issue, it's also possible that Mary was John Benedict's second wife. Marriage and birth records are slim for Norwalk in the 17th and early 18th centuries, leaving possible a variety of scenarios. Mary was about 10 years younger than John, and that much of a difference in age was more common for second or later wives than first.\nchildren of John Benedict and possibly Mary, surname unknown:\nMatthew, supp. b. 2 October 1703, claimed by Henry Marvin Benedict but not in Norwalk records\nAnna/Hannah\nvital records sources: John's birth comes from the Norwalk town records. His death comes from a Norwalk Congregational Church record? and a gravestone listed in the Hale Collection entries for Pine Island Cemetery, Norwalk, but not found on a site visit.",

REEVES.\nApril 25, at Charlton, Mr. Thomas Reeves, many years landlord of the \"George and Dragon,\" at Ewell.\nFrom the Kentish Chronicle, 27 October, 1860.\nAccident on the Railway Works near Dover.\nOn Tuesday afternoon, at a little after one o'clock, at the navvies engaged in making the line to Dover were at work at a bridge at Temple Ewell, the whole structure suddenly gave way, with a dreadful crash. Three men were at work under it, at the time, and they were all buried under the ruins. Immediate efforts were made for the recovery of the bodies; but it was not until two hours had elapsed that they were dug out. Quite dead, we need not say, they were; and two of them had sustained the most dreadful injuries, their faces being so bruised that they were unrecognisable. Their names were Jackson, Hammond, and Rumle. They were at once removed to the \"George and Dragon,\" Ewell, and information was conveyed to the coroner for East Kent, T. T. Delasaux, Esq.\nThe inquest was held at the \"George and Dragon,\" at a little after one on Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Potter was named foreman. The jury first viewed the bodies of the unfortunate men, and afterwards went to the scene of the accident. Previously the coroner had, in a few appropriate observations, explained to them, that although the accident had resulted in the death of three persons, yet the jury might confine their attention to the case of Henry Jackson; because it was presumed, that the same cause which produced his death, produced also that of the other two. He felt it necessary to request the jury to visit the scene of the casualty, because they would not, otherwise, have a clear idea of all the circumstances attending it.\nAfter their return the following witnesses were called.\nThomas Russell:\u2014 I come from Worcestershire, and am engaged on the railway works at Ewell, as labourer. I have seen the body of the deceased, and I identify it as that of Henry Jackson, my half brother. I cannot say anything as to the cause of death. I had left the cutting about six minutes before the bridge fell. For the last week I have been working under or near it. The deceased has been also so employed. I was working all yesterday with the deceased. I heard the bridge full, just as I had got out of the cutting. I ran back at once. I am employed by Mr. Packson; but I do not think he is the contractor for the erection of the bridge. I have seen the bricks as they now lie. Most of them seem as clean of mortar us ever they were. Some have a little mortar; but many, I should think, can never have had a particle of mortar on them. I cannot say whether the bridge was properly built I have seen many buildings pulled down, and the bricks in these cases have always had a great deal of mortar sticking to them\u2014very different to the bricks of this bridge. I was present when my brother was dug out. I did not assist the workmen. He was quite dead. His body was much injured.\nThe Coroner asked Mr. Macdonald (Mr. Crompton's agent) who was responsible for the building of the bridge?\nMr. Macdonald:\u2014 Messrs. Hawley (of Dover). I think they had the sub-contract for its erection, and they did not sub-let it to any one.\nMr. Delasaux:\u2014 The bridge must be re-built. Who will re-build it?\nMr. Mills (the resident engineer of the company):\u2014 Mr. Crompton, I should think. He is responsible to the company, and Messrs. Hawley to him. I understand that Messrs. Hawley undertook it themselves, and did not sub-let it. They appointed a foreman to superintend the works.\nMr. Hawley, at the suggestion of the Coroner, was sent for, and remained in the room during the rest of the inquiry.\nMr. Macdonald, in answer to the Coroner, said that he had the contracts between the company and Mr. Crampton, and between Mr. Crumpton und Messrs. Hawley; but he had not got them with him then.\nThe Coroner said, they must be produced, and no further evidence could be taken, as he should have to adjourn the inquiry. It was a very important one, and intimately affected the public interests, as well as the safety of the other labourers. It would, he thought, be necessary to have a professional opinion, as to the erection of the bridge, and whether the proper materials had been used, and in the proper way. He should therefore propose an adjournment.\nAfter a little discussion the inquest was adjourned till next Tuesday morning at eleven o\u2019clock.\nThe Coroner directed that no alteration should be made in the present position of the fragments of the bridge during the week.\nThe jury were bound over for the nest Tuesday, and the proceedings then closed.\nFrom the Kentish Chronicle, 3 November, 1860.\nEWELL. THE LATE ACCIDENT ON THE RAILWAY.\nThe adjourned inquest on the bodies of the three men who lost their lives on Tuesday week, by the falling of the bridge at Ewell, near Dover, was resumed on Tuesday morning. In the meantime, Mr. Vincent, of Canterbury, had, by the directions of the coroner, made a professional survey of the bridge. Mr. Warder, from the office of Messrs. Freshfield, the company\u2019s solicitors, attended to watch the proceedings. Some further evidence having been taken the jury retired for about an hour, and then announced that they had agreed upon a verdict of \"Accidental Death,\" and suggested that the Company should be more careful in building such bridges in wet weather.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday, 4 February, 1870.\nWhitstable Times and Herne Bay Herald, 12 February 1870.\nA CHILD BURNT TO DEATH\nAn Inquest was held at the \"George and Dragon\" public-house, Ewell, near Dover, yesterday morning, before the County Coroner, T. T. Delasaux, Esq., on the body of a female child named Ann Elizabeth Friend, aged 4 years, who was burnt to death by falling over a fire guard into the fire.\nElizabeth Gambrill, the wife of John Gambrill, of the parish of Ewell deposed: My husband is a labouring man, and we live next door to the father of the deceased. On Tuesday morning last, about 11 o'clock, I heard screams proceeding from Mr. Friend's house. In consequence, I went in, and found the deceased sitting on the floor with her clothes in flames. I took a mat from the room and extinguished the flames. When I went in another child was sitting on the floor, beside the deceased. I also saw the child about six or seven years of age run from the house, towards where the mother was at work about the time I heard the screams. When I went in, I do not know whether the fire-guard was up, but it was there. The deceased child died from the injuries of the burns, which had extended over the greater part of the body, yesterday about eight o'clock.\nBy the foreman, Mr. Dombrain: I heard the screaming before the child was out of the house.\nAlice Friend deposed: I am the wife of William Friend, a labourer, of Ewell. The deceased was my child, and was aged four years and three months. I went out to wash on Tuesday morning last, at Mrs. Goldsack's. Her house is not far from my own. I went there about six o'clock in the morning, leaving the deceased and two other children in bed upstairs. I went home again about nine, to see to them, and found them all up and dressed. I left them in the care of the little girl now present, who is between six and seven years of age. I have been in the habit of doing so for some time, leaving home early in the morning, and going occasionally to attend to the children myself. I remained at home nearly half an hour, when I went home that morning. When I went away the fire-guard was up, and there was a fender inside the guard. The guard was before the fire, but not hooked. It did not quite fit the fire-place. I was called by this child. When I went home Mrs. Gambrill was just coming out of the door. When I returned the guard was just where I had left it. The deceased told me she fell over the guard, but how she got out without moving it I don't know.\nThe jury returned a verdict to the effect that the child was accidentally burnt to death.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday, 2 June, 1876. Price 1d.\nWalter Nicholls and Stephen Ryan were charged with being deserters from the 24th Regiment, stationed at Dover.\nInstructing-constable Jessop said he saw the prisoners in the \u201cGeorge and Dragon\u201d public house at Ewell that morning at seven o'clock. He asked them if they were on pass. They said \u201cYes.\u201d Nicholls produced a pass which expired at 12 o'clock midnight, on\nSunday. Ryan had no pass.\nPrisoners were ordered to be sent back to their quarters.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday 13 July, 1877.\nSHOCKING ACCIDENT NEAR KEARSNEY\nAn inquest was held at the \u201cGeorge and Dragon Inn,\u201d Ewell, on Monday afternoon, before F. J. Till, Esq., on the body of Mr. Green, whose body was found on the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway line early in the morning.\nThe gentleman with whom deceased was staying in Dover said: I am a barrister-at-law. I identify the body as that of Mr. Green. He had no fixed residence. He was unmarried, and his age was 43. I last saw him alive yesterday evening in Dover. I asked him where he was going, and he said he was going for a walk over the hills in the direction of Fort Burgoyne. This was a little after six. He seemed in his usual health and spirits. He had no pecuniary difficulties of the sort.\nBy the Jury: He was not a relation of mine.\nMr. Alfred Stanley said: I am a miller, living at Ewell. I saw deceased walking about in the road last night at about a quarter to nine. He stood looking at the road leading to the school for some time, and then went on towards the church. I noticed nothing strange in his manner. He stood looking about as a stranger would.\nBy a Juror: He was certainly not intoxicated.\nWilliam Allen said: I am a waggoner in the employ of Mr. J. G. Churchward, of Kearsney Manor. This morning I was walking along the line to go to work. I go that way to see if the horses are in the meadow by the lower side of the line. I happened to look over the bank on the lower side of the line, and saw something on the line. I went a little way back to a place where I could get on the line. I then saw the body of a man. The head was separated from the body. I went and called a man named Page who is employed on the line, and told him what I had found. It appeared to me that the train had passed over deceased's neck. There was a little blood on the rail.\nMr. William George said: I am in inspector of permanent way in the service of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway. The down trains between nine last evening and a quarter-to-four this morning are one from London reaching Kearsney at 9.43 (a slow train) and the express, which passes at about 10.10. I went to the place where deceased was killed this morning. The body was lying in the 6ft. way, and the head was about six feet nearer Dover, in the 4ft. way. It was evident that he was coming towards Dover; his feet were towards London and his head towards Dover. The nearest signal-box is about 600 yards off on the Dover side; it is not in view of the spot. In the 6ft. way there is a well-trodden path in the middle. He might have slipped without there being any mark on the gravel.\nMr. Exell, Divisional Inspector, said no report of any accident had been made by the engine drivers.\nDr. Alfred Grandison said: I reside in Dover. This morning, about twelve o'clock, I saw the body of the deceased in the shed at the back of this inn where it now lies. The head was completely severed from the body. Death must have been instantaneous. In addition to the head being clean cut off, the back part of the skull was smashed in, as if it had been struck but the axle-tree of the train. There were no other marks on the body.\nBy a Juror: I have not attended the deceased. I never saw him before.\nHenry Page said: I am a platelayer in the employment of the London, Chathan, and Dover railway Company. This morning, a little before four, I was called by Allen. In consequence of what he told me I went then to the village and called David Brown, one of my mates. I went down the line, and saw the body of deceased lying in the 6ft. way; the head was lying in the 4ft. way. The feet lay towards Canterbury. The collar of the clothes were black, as if something had touched them. I assisted the Police-constable to take the body to where it now lies. I live about twenty rods from where the body was found. I was not out after twelve o'clock yesterday morning. At half-past nine in the evening I was in bed I heard no cry or anything of the sort.\nPolice-constable Thomas Ray, stationed at Ewell, said: At half=-past five this morning I received information that a man had been run over. I proceeded to the spot, and found the body as described by previous witnesses, and removed it to this place. I found in the pocket 20s. in silver, \u00a38 in gold, and 4\u00bdd. in copper, a gold chain, which was broken, and a silver watch, which was still going, a pocket book, two receipts, a cigar case, a letter in German. I happen to know German, and the letter refers to having some graves attended to.\nThe Coroner summed up, pointing out that there was no evidence whatever of suicide, and the Jury returned a verdict of \u201cAccidental Death.\u201d\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent Intelligencer, 27 July, 1877. Price 1d.\nTwo soldiers named Bartlett and Hardy, belonging to the 61st Regiment, were brought before the Magistrates charged with desertion. The prisoners were apprehended on Tuesday at the \"George and Dragon\" public-house, Ewell, by Instructing-constable Jessup, and brought to the Dover Police-station. The prisoner Bartlett was most violent in his conduct and struck the constable with his belt, and also attempted to bite his nose. he also struck him when at the Police-station. They were ordered to be taken back to their regiment.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday, 26 December, 1902.\nGREAT FIRE AT EWELL \u2013 WOMAN BURNT TO DEATH\nAbove photo date unknown, probably after 1904, showing the butchers shop opposite the \"George and Dragon.\"\nShortly after midnight this morning a terrible fire broke out at the butcher's shop of Mr. Marshall, Temple Ewell, at the corner of Ewell Street and the main road, opposite the \u201cGeorge and Dragon.\u201d\nThe family, consisting of Mr. George Marshall \u2013 an elderly widower \u2013 his step-daughter, Miss Mary Elizabeth Johncock, aged about 50 years, and a younger daughter, had retired to rest.\nThe fire broke out in the following way: Suddenly Mr. Marshall heard an explosion in his step-daughter's bedroom. He called out, \u201cWhat is that?\u201d and the woman replied, \u201cThe lamp has exploded.\u201d\nMr. Marshall at once rushed to her room, which is over the shop, and found her a mass of flames. He got an overcoat and attempted to throw it round her. He made several brave attempts to rescue the woman, who was frantic with fear. She persisted in trying to get to the window, while Mr. Marshall tried to carry her down the stairs \u2013 the only way of escape. Both being extremely corpulent in build, Mr. Marshall, who is also aged, was unable to get her out. The room was in a mass of flames, and he was driven back with his hair burnt off.\nThe room was now burning like a furnace. The alarm was quickly raised in the village, and a telephone message was at once sent to Dover for the fire engine. The message was received at 12.35 and the engine was promptly dispatched, under the charge of Inspector Nash, Sergeant Cadman, Police-constable Dunford, and Fireman Newman.\nIn the meantime the father, Mr. G. Marshall, and the girl had got out, but nothing more was seen of his stepdaughter. The neighbours set to work and got all the meat out of the shop and saved the furniture in the lower rooms. When the fire engine arrived, shortly after one o'clock, the whole of the top of the building was a mass of flames. Water was first obtained from a tank in Mr. Hambrook's, Street Farm, but it was quickly pumped dry. The engine was then taken down by the river by Mr. Stanley's Mill, but little could be done in saving anything. The gas pipes had melted, and great flares of lighted gas kept the fireman back. It was necessary to open out the road and plus these.\nThe only portion of the building not on fire was the slaughter-house, and water was continually poured on this, and the fire prevented from getting hold of it.\nThe efforts of the firemen prevented the flames spreading, and all danger was over before three o'clock.\nIt was not until four o'clock that the body of the unfortunate woman was recovered. It had been burnt to a cinder, and only the trunk and the upper parts of the body were found. The body was in such a terrible condition that to preserve it, it had to be placed in a tub.\nThe whole of the property and furniture is insured.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday, 2 January, 1903.\nTHE FATAL FIRE AT EWELL \u2013 A QUESTION OF OIL\nThe inquest on Mary Elizabeth Johncock, who was burnt to death at the fire at Mr. Marshall's, Temple Ewell, on December 24, was held on Boxing Day afternoon at the \u201cGeorge and Dragon\u201d public house, Temple Ewell, but the County Coroner (R. M. Mercer, Esq.). The Jury were as follows: A. Stanley, (foreman), F. Knocker, G. Hollands, O. Golder, E. Horton, G. Jarrett, H. Page, G. Hobday, R. Sharp, L. Hambrook, W. H. Smith, T. Bryson, and F. Paynton.\nMr. H. J. Jacobs appeared to represent Mr. Rawlings, of the Washington Fruit Stores, who sold the oil which was in the exploded lamp.\nGeorge John Marshall said: I reside and carry on business at Ewell as a butcher. The deceased, who is my step-daughter, lived with me. Her name is Mary Elizabeth Johncock. At a quarter to 12 on Tuesday night I was in bed sitting up, when I heard something explode. I said, \u201cPolly, what is that?\u201d She replied, \u201cThe lamp has burst,\u201d all so quiet, so calm, that you would not think there was anything wrong about it at all. She was in her bedroom adjoining mine, there being only a thin partition. She then said, \u201cCall Rosie.\u201d I did so, and Rosie went, and called out \u201cOh, daddy, come; she is on fire.\u201d I got out of bed, and taking my great coat, tried to put it round her. She was standing near the door of her room. Her night-dress, which was of flannelette, was all on fire.\nThe Coroner: The importance of that is that flannelette is one of the most inflammable materials that exist.\nWitness, continuing, said: I tried to get her out, but owing to the door being very narrow we could not get by, or else I could have pushed her out. I began to catch fire myself, my night short and the hair on back part of my head, and I could not get by breath owing to the smoke. Suddenly I heard her drop, and after that heard nothing more of her. It was all done in five minutes, and when I had to go away the place was all on fire, burning like a furnace. Our oil is usually bought from a man at River named Hayes. My daughter, who is dead, usually bought it. Half a gallon was bought at a time, and kept in a stone bottle, and the remainder is still in an outhouse. I cannot say what sort of lamp it was she kept in her bedroom. I could not see any lamp when I went into her room. I could not get by her to see anything. She had the lamp to air the room. Her age was 42.\nBy Mr. Jacobs: My daughter-in-law suffered from fits, and had one on Sunday.\nRose Johncock, a daughter of the deceased, said: The lamp has been in the house for some eight or nine years, and was a double burner with an earthenware oil receptacle. It was in good repair, and would cost 12/- or 15/- to buy. I sometimes bought oil from a man named Hayes of River, and paid 4d or 4\u00bdd. a gallon. There had never been an explosion previously with the lamp. When I went into the room I did not see the lamp. Earlier in the evening I saw it alight on the chest of drawers at the foot of the bed \u2013 that was about half-past nine. We all went to bed at half-past ten. I slept on the same floor a little distance away. I was asleep when I was called. When I got into the room I saw the flames were all over her, and running over the place, apparently from the oil. The valance of the bed was also alight. The deceased was standing just inside the door, and I could not get by her. I cannot say why she did not come out. I picked up a cloth and rubbed it down her to put the flames out.\nDo you think she knew what was happening?\nYes, she said, \u201cI'm burning.\u201d I do not know why she remained there in the midst of the flames. Perhaps it was the shock. She was very heavy. I did not try to pull her out as daddy came with a coat.\nWitness stated that she was not aware of any regulation that petroleum of a certain kind must be kept in separate half pints.\nIn reply to the Coroner, Police-sergeant Crowe stated that no remains of the lamp could be found.\nIn reply to questions by Mr. Jacobs, the witness said that she had seen her mother clean the lamp out, but not very lately.\nIn reply to the Coroner, witness said that on one occasion the oil was purchased from another person, but not by witness.\nCharles Hayes said that he lived at River, he was a licensed hawker and oil dealer. He supplied oil to the deceased's house, but not for four weeks. They had half a gallon for 4\u00bdd., and the oil was Royal Daylight, and its flask-point was 130 degrees. This was marked on the casks when witness purchased it in that form. Tea Rose was 73. He purchased the oil from Mr. Bushell.\nThe Coroner: What has James Rawley to do with this?\nPolice-sergeant Stone: He is manager of the firm who sold the last lot of oil to the deceased's house.\nWitness said that he usually supplied half a gallon of oil every fortnight to the deceased. Last Friday week there was a man in the village selling oil at 6\u00bdd. a gallon, and when witness went to the house, they said they had got the oil from him. He had seen the oil which was in the jar, and as soon as he smelt it he knew that it was not the oil he sold. The various kinds of oil had distinctive smells.\nWilliam Horace Lyon, 8, St. John Road, a hawker in the employ of Mr. Rawley, of the Washington Stores, said that on the 12th of December he supplied a gallon of oil to the deceased's house. The price was 3\u00bdd, or 6\u00bdd. for a gallon. It was Rock Light oil, and its flash point was 80 degrees. It was supplied by Mr. Mills, of Dover. He was told its flash point was 80 degrees by the manager. He asked the question out of curiosity. He did not know what flash point meant. If he had been told it was 60 or 70 he would not have known anything more. He asked the question out of curiosity. He supposed that at 80 or 100 it was not so likely to explode.\nThe Coroner: That is rather peculiar. Do you not know that it would require heating up to that temperature before giving off an explosive vapour? Did you understand that?\nWitness: No I didn't.\nWitness further stated that he had sold hundreds of gallons since he started on December 4th.\nThe Coroner: Did you make the enquiry about the flash point because you were told that Rock Light was a particularly dangerous oil?\nWitness: No, I did not know it was Rock Light until just now.\nThe Coroner: Have you been given any caution as to the oil \u2013 not to allow a light close to it?\nWitness said that no regulation had been shown him as to its sale.\nThe Coroner: How many times have you been in Ewell?\nWitness: Once.\nPolice-sergeant Crowe stated that he found the body. He had since made a thorough search, and found an ankle bone, which he had placed with the body in the tub. He had not been able to get a copy of the petroleum regulations.\nChief Constable Knott, who had been directed to attend as a witness, said he was not the Inspector of petroleum, but of gunpowder and explosives. Mr. Stilgoe, the Borough Engineer, was the Inspector for petroleum. He had been informed at the Town Clerk's office that Mr. Rawley never had a license, and had never applied for one.\nThe Coroner: Well, this is not the place to deal with that. Why is Mr. Rawley not here?\nWitness: It was stated that he was indisposed, suffering from a heavy cold, and his wife had also undergone an operation.\nArthur Langley, 16, Townwall Street, said that he kept Mr. Rawley's books. All he knew was that Mr. Rawley had paid \u00a32 2s. for a license.\nWilliam Dray, of Liverpool Street, Dover, an agent for oil, &c., said he supplied the oil to Mr. Rawley. A certificate was supplied with it that its flash point was 80 to 120 degrees. He explained that lamps were liable to explode when not full and the wick not large enough. He had heard of the best oil exploding under these conditions. The lamp should also be cleaned out, as there was a residual left which was really the dangerous part.\nThe Coroner, in summing up, said that the case was a simple one from the point of view of the Jury, but the enquiry, owing to the Police not getting the necessary evidence, was not so complete as he should have liked. Where oil is sold with the flash point under 73 degrees it had to be kept in a certain prescribed method. There were also certain regulations as to the sale of petroleum, and he ought to have had a copy produced there. He would draw their attention to the dangerous nature of flannelette, and mentioned that a substance of similar nature was sold which would resist fire perfectly.\nThe Jury returned a verdict of \u201cAccidentally burnt to death,\u201d and expressed their opinion that the oil should be tested before any more was sold.\nThe Coroner: I do not think there will be much more sold in Ewell for a few weeks.\nFrom the Dover Express, Friday 16 October, 1903.\n(Before J.

They at once told their Cub Mistress, Miss Skey, who notified the Police, and the body was removed. Later it was identified as that of Henry Francis McKeen, a postman of Temple Ewell, who had been missing since June 30th.\nThe inquest was held at the \u201cGeorge and Dragon,\u201d Temple Ewell, on Wednesday afternoon, by the East Kent Coroner (Mr. Rutley Mowll) assisted by a Jury.\nThe Jury was as follows:- James Freeman (foreman), P. A. Parkes, F. Austen, D. Saunders, H. J. Parker, H. G. Tyler, D. W. Johncock, C. W. Johncock and A. Reynolds.\nHenry Kettle, Uphill, near Folkestone, said: I am a farmer. I have seen the body and identified it as that of Henry Francis McKeen. He married my first cousin. His age was 41, and he was a postman of Temple Ewell, he had been missing since June 30th. I identified the body by reason of a certain deformity of the left wrist which is well known to me. It is a kind of twist back of the wrist, and I have no doubt it is the man. I was told of his relatives that when he disappeared he was wearing a pair of canvas slippers with red soles. I noticed one was on the body.\nEdward Arthur McKeen, 38, Council House Street, Dover, said: I am a seaman, but am at present employed as a ganger at the West Blockyard. The deceased was my late brother's son. I saw him the night he was reported missing. He came to my house at six o'clock on the Tuesday evening, 29th June, staying till 7.45 p.m. Whilst there he wrote a letter card. I lent him the pencil to do it with, but I knew nothing of the purport of the letter. He asked me to spell \u201chypocrisy\u201d for him. His ways seemed very strange at the time. He seemed miles away. He seemed as if he wanted to say something, but did not tell me the trouble. My wife and friend both cleared out of the room to allow him to do it. When he left me he went to the pillar box by the \u201cLord Warden\u201d to post the card.\nMrs. Jessie Harriet McKeen said: I live at Glenmore, Temple Ewell, and I am the wife of the deceased. I was away on the 29th, and when I came home on June 30th I could not find my husband, so I looked round and in the drawer in his bedroom I found the communication (produced) in his handwriting.\nThe Coroner, after the witness had retired, said the letter referred to was: \u201cOh my dear, I cannot stand the disgrace. Goodbye. My very best love to you both. Mac.\u201d\nMiss Margaret Skey said: About ten o'clock on Tuesday morning I was in charge of some Wolf Cubs encamped in the woods consisting of beeches at Temple Ewell. My attention was called by one of the boys to something and on going to see, I saw what it was and immediately reported the matter to the Police.\nMr. Mowll: I take it nothing was touched?\nOnly that the boys ran ahead in the thicket and said they had found a skeleton and one of them touched it and the skull fell off.\nP.Sgt. Fry said he would like to express his praise of the assistance rendered to him by Miss Skey's two brothers in the removal of the body, which was a difficult performance. They assisted him down the hill until he got on the hard road.\nP.Sgt. Fry said: At 11.20 a.m. on Tuesday I received a telephone message from the Dover Borough Police, in consequence of which I went to the Beech Wood at Temple Ewell, where I saw the last witness. Following her direction I went to a cluster of thick undergrowth where I saw the body of a man, fully clothed and in an advanced state of decomposition. The body was lying upon its back in a hunched up position with the legs double under it, and lying immediately beneath a small tree. The head was detached from the trunk. It was devoid of flesh, but lying in line with the shoulders. The body was dressed in a blue suit and had on canvas slippers with red rubber soles. A grey cap was lying by the skull. The left hand was deformed. Around a protruding portion of the vertebrae was a piece of cord tied in a noose and suspended from a small branch immediately above the body was the other piece of cord. It was securely tied, and I had to cut it away with a knife. I brought the body to the mortuary where it now lies, and on searching the clothing, found no property or documents. I then noticed the description of clothing etc., and the deformity coincided with that circulated at the time that deceased was reported missing.\nThe Coroner said he would like to see the report that was circulated.\nP.Sgt. Fry said that he had not a copy with him, but it was sent throughout the county.\nThe Coroner: Mr. McKeen spoke of a letter written by deceased. Were you able to find out to whom it was written?\nNo sir, it was not round here.\nThe Coroner: Do you know Mr. McKeen?\nNo I don't, but I think he posted it at the pillar box near the \u201cLord Warden.\u201d\nThe Coroner asked what opinion witness formed from the legs being under the body.\nP.Sgt. Fry said that it gave him the impression that the position was formed from rigor mortis set in. From the position of the body and the branch, he should say that the weight of a man's body suspended would weigh the branch down and cause the legs to be doubled up.\nThe Coroner said that there were representatives there from the Post Office, and whilst he did not want to go into too much detail, he did not think they could shut their eyes to the motive in this case. He would like to hear Mr. Hicks.\nAlfred Charles Hicks, assistant Superintendent at the Post Office, Dover, said that the deceased was under his jurisdiction at the time.\nThe Coroner: He says he couldn't stand the disgrace. Was it anything to do with Post office work?\nI have reason to believe it was.\nThe Coroner: In trouble?\nHe was suspended from duty that afternoon, June 29th, about 3.45 to 4 p.m.\nThe Coroner (to the Jury): Do you want to hear any more as to why he was suspended and that sort of thing? I only called evidence to show motive. I don't think it necessary to go into detail.\nDr. Adamson said: I saw the body at half-past two yesterday, and concur with the evidence as to its condition. The noose was as thought it might have been round the neck. I formed the opinion that the probably cause of death was strangulation by hanging.\nThe Coroner said it was a sad case.\nThe verdict of \u201cSuicide during temporary insanity\u201d was returned.\nMr. Lewis, the Postmaster, said he wished on behalf of the staff, to express their sympathy with the relatives.\nFrom the Dover Express and East Kent News, Friday, 21 March, 1930. Price 1\u00bdd.\nFATAL MOTOR ACCIDENT AT TEMPLE EWELL\nOn Thursday night last week. The car, after bursting its front tyres, hit the \"George and Dragon\" Inn.

        "title": "5 Instant Benefits of Using a Tailor for Your Business Suit | EBlogin",
        "raw_content": "A business suit is not only a measure of how well-dressed one is, but it also determines how far up the ladder one moves in the corporate world. In the corporate world, where image is held in high regard, the demand for tailored suits is increasing exponentially. Suits have a significant influence on the outcomes in different occasions including meeting potential business partners or clients, press events, or networking events.\nConsequently, high-level attention and research should be considered when getting a suit. Off-the-rack suits are always readily available and are often cheaper, but it is not always a guarantee that you will get the ideal fit. Tailored suits, on the other hand, are custom-made suits that require a tailor to take measurements and style the suit to a client\u2019s preferences. In spite of ready-made suits costing less, there are more compelling reasons why one should consider getting a tailor-made suit.\n1- Ideal Fit\nAn ill-fitting suit makes the entire outfit look cheaper than it is. A tailored suit, on the other hand, is designed to fit perfectly and evokes a sense of finesse. Moreover, buying an ill-fitting suit requires you to later look for a tailor to make adjustments. In addition to the time wasted, there is the issue of extra costs. Modifications can also alter the outlook of the suit because different a stitching style might be used in the process.\n2- Better Style and Versatility\nOff-the-rack suits are typically produced for the masses. Subsequently, you can always expect their design to conform to certain styles. Mass-produced suits also limit your style and tend to be common on the streets. With custom-made suits, one has the freedom to personalize the business suit to their preferences. Further, a great tailor will advise you according your preferences. In such cases, one has the choice of color, pattern, and feel of the fabric. Such subtle details usually incorporate a sense of creativity and originality in the suit.\n3- Saves Time During Shopping\nWhen shopping for business suits, you will have to identify a reputable retail store, choose from among a limited range of styles, and try out innumerable suits before you can get one that fits perfectly. For this reason, many busy people find the shopping experience mentally and physically exasperating. Getting a tailor-made suit is as simple as identifying a tailor, having measurements taken, and the tailor then begins working on your order. Some tailors can schedule consultations at home or the office and thus save you much time.\n4- Superior Quality\nThere is a difference in the level of quality between tailor-made suits and ready-made suits. Ready-made suits are frequently sewn by automated machines in an assembly line, whereas, custom-made suits are made under the strict supervision of a tailor. This attention to detail ensures that utmost care goes into making a suit. Getting a custom-made suit also gives you the opportunity to choose from a wide variety of fabric.\nHand-picking the appropriate material also ensures that the client evaluates the quality and feel of the fabric. Custom-made suits are also designed with a client\u2019s exact frame in mind and also include canvas in their design. Most ready-made suits are not fitted with canvas and do not come with perfect measurements. Hence, ready-made suits develop wrinkles after a few trips to the dry cleaner.\n5- Value for Money\nFor a person whose image matters, the lower cost of ready-made business suits turns out to be expensive in the long run. An ill-fitting business suit might cost you deals. Additionally, with cheaper suits, you will have to make additional trips to the tailor for repairs and adjustments; which ends up costing more.\nTailor-made suits are crafted with high-quality material, and thus provide better service than off-the-rack suits. A high-quality tailored woolen suit, for instance, maintains its form for a long time. Subsequently, investing in a custom-tailored suit for business may initially cost more, but the professional tailoring and the high-quality fabric ingrained in the suit will be invaluable in the long term.\nIn conclusion, a well-tailored business suit leaves a lasting impression on any acquaintance\u2019s mind. Frequently, low-quality suits tend to lose their integrity as they age; their stitching begins to fray, the color fades, and the elbows wear out. Consequently, the suit starts to appear cheap and dents your image. Therefore, hiring a tailor to design your business suit confers countless benefits that will put you ahead of many peers.\n4 Things You Must Do After an Accident\n4 Questions to Ask When Choosing a Builder for Your New House\nhttp://eblogin.com/5-instant-benefits-using-tailor-business-suit\">",

        "title": "6 Key Tips for Driving a Forklift for the First Time | EBlogin",
        "raw_content": "6 Key Tips for Driving a Forklift for the First Time\nA forklift can be a very handy piece of equipment for moving heavy things around and otherwise getting things done in the workplace. Forklifts can also be surprisingly easy to operate, but it does take some practice in order for you to get good at it. Fortunately, there are a few tips that you can follow when operating a forklift for the first time that can help you do it successfully.\n1. Dress Properly for the Job\nFirst of all, you should make sure that you dress properly for the job. You are generally going to want to wear pants rather than shorts to add extra protection for your legs. Additionally, you will usually need to wear a colorful vest and a hard hat or other form of head protection. Then, if you do happen to get into an accident when you are driving the forklift for the first time, you can help ensure that you keep yourself as safe as possible.\nDon\u2019t just hop into the driver\u2019s seat without taking a look at the forklift. Walking around and carefully inspecting it can be a good idea for two reasons. First of all, it can give you a better idea of what you are working with and can help you become better acquainted with the forklift itself. Secondly, it can allow you to look for any potential safety issues. In fact, it\u2019s always a good idea to inspect your forklift each time that you use it; then, you can catch potential problems and can repair them before you operate the machine.\n\u201cEven though operating a forklift is fairly easy, it can be a bit difficult to get used to at first,\u201d said Intermodal Equipment Exchange. Although you might have seen more experienced forklift operators maneuver their forklifts through tight spaces, you should not assume that this is something that you are going to be able to do until you get some practice.\nTherefore, for best results, it is usually best to clear the area so that you will have more room to work in. Letting others know that you are going to be using a forklift for the first time can encourage them to step out of the way. Moving obstacles that might get in your way can make it so much easier for you to operate the forklift until you are more accustomed to it.\nWhen you get in the forklift, take a minute to make sure that you are comfortable before you start it up. Look for all of the controls, and consider adjusting your seat so that you can be more comfortable.\nYou might be ready to hop in and take off, but it\u2019s best to start out slow. After all, if you are operating the forklift at a slower speed, you can help prevent accidents. Once you become a little more accustomed to operating and maneuvering the forklift, you can start trying it out at higher speeds. In the meantime, it is usually going to be a lot safer if you keep it slow.\nWhen you are operating the forklift, it can be easy to get distracted by what you are doing, which can lead to you not really paying attention to what is going on around you. Unfortunately, this could lead to serious injury, death or property damage, since a forklift can be a very dangerous piece of equipment. It is important to always be on the lookout for what is going on around you; then, you can stop or move if there is a person or something else in the way.\nUsing a forklift is a great way to make your workday a whole lot easier, and it can actually be a lot of fun as well. If it\u2019s not something that you have ever done before, however, you might be a bit nervous about hopping in the driver\u2019s seat for the first time. Luckily, if you follow these tips, you can help ensure that your first experience with a forklift goes as well as possible.\n7 Questions to Ask During a Job Interview to Gauge Diversity Views\nHow to Transform Your Room into the Ideal Entertaining Space\nhttp://eblogin.com/6-key-tips-driving-forklift-first-time\">",

Named after the brightest star in the northern celestial hemisphere, \"Arcturus\" is the team\u2019s first venture into building a four-wheeled vehicle per the race requirements for the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge.\nThis July the team will compete in the Formula Sun Grand Prix in Austin, Texas and will then spend the rest of the summer preparing for Australia. As the race from Darwin to Adelaide draws near, the team \u2013 a crew of 12 women and eight men \u2013 is preparing for their adventure. \u201cNot one undergrad has been on the trip to Australia before so that\u2019s kind of exciting for us,\u201d said team captain Rose Abramson \u201915, who joined the team as a freshman.\nIn the 2011 Veoila World Solar Challenge, the team faced a setback when the lithium-ion battery pack never made it to Darwin due to air-transportation issues. This year things will be different. The team has worked closely with Prof. Yossi Sheffi, Director of the Center for Transportation Logistics and the Elisha Gray II Professor of Engineering Systems. With Sheffi\u2019s help, the team secured generous sponsorship from United Parcel Service and \"Arcturus\" - weighing in at 400 pounds plus a 50-pound battery pack - will be shipped by sea, saving the team upwards of $20,000-$25,000.\nThe high percentage of women on MIT's Solar Electric Vehicle Team is notable. Abramson remarks that for other teams at competitions \u201cit might not be as common to have as many women on the team. Our team is smaller than a lot of other teams that participate in these competitions. Our entire team goes to races, because our team is only 20 people and people have multiple roles. You\u2019ll have to do both engineering as well as fundraising and logistics. People often work across disciplines, which makes for a richer experience.\u201d\nLike the many moving parts in a vehicle, there are many movable parts working together to support the team. Along with Institute and corporate sponsors, Emily Ranken, Phyllis Carter, and Fabiola Hernandez at Environmental Health Services are working closely with the team on transportation logistics. Team members have also benefited from the expertise of Custom Composite Technologies in Maine where founder Steve Hassett has provided the team with equipment, workshop space, and expertise enabling the team to lay up the body of the car. As well, the team just received the latest round of encapsulated solar cells with lamination provided by Fraunhofer Center for Sustainable Energy Systems.\nAbramson is eager for the race to begin. \u201cDriving straight through the outback is really more than just a simple race. My goal is for 'Arcturus' to drive the entire 3,000 km distance. It would be great to be in the top-10 finishers.\u201d\nAdopt-A-Cell\nIndividuals interested in supporting the team can adopt a solar cell that will power \"Arcturus.\" For more information, visit the Solar Electric Vehicle Team \"Adopt-a-Cell\" site\nWatch one evening of welding the chassis in a time-lapse video of nine seconds",

Organizers expressed hope that those nations would nevertheless be pressured into compliance.\n\"Even though we all know that there are important states not present, I am also convinced that together we will have succeeded in stigmatizing any future use of cluster munitions,\" said Micheal Martin, Ireland's minister for foreign affairs.\nMartin said he ultimately wants to see all U.N. member states ratify the treaty.\nThe agreement requires the destruction of stockpiles of the weapons within eight years, said Thomas Nash, coordinator of the Cluster Munition Coalition.\nCluster munitions, which break apart in flight to scatter hundreds of smaller bomblets, are what the International Committee of the Red Cross has called a \"persistent humanitarian problem.\"\nMost of a cluster bomb's bomblets are meant to explode on impact, but many do not. Credible estimates show the weapons fail to explode on impact between 10 and 40 percent of the time, according to the International Committee of the Red Cross.\nThat means unexploded bomblets lie scattered across a target area, often exploding only when handled or disturbed -- posing a serious risk to civilians.\nEarlier this month, a U.S. State Department representative called it \"an absolute moral obligation\" to rid a battlefield of unexploded ordnance after the battle.\nBut Acting Assistant Secretary for Political-Military Affairs Stephen D. Mull said the United States was attempting to solve the problem through a disarmament body called the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, or the CCW, which meets in Geneva and comprises major military powers and military trade producers.\nThe CCW is to meet next in July.\nThe United States would not agree to any ban because the country considers cluster munitions an important part of its defense strategy, Mull said. He urged regulation of the weapons to render them harmless after battle.\nDuring the 34-day war in Lebanon in 2006, the United Nations estimated that Israel dropped 4 million bomblets, 1 million of which may not have exploded, according to the ICRC. More than 250 civilians and bomb-disposal operators have been killed or injured by them in southern Lebanon since the war ended.\nCluster bombs were also used in the 1999 war in Kosovo.\n\"Very quickly after the Kosovo conflict, the major killer of civilians (was) not antipersonnel mines or anti-vehicle mines or conventional munitions, but these munitions,\" said Lt. Col. Jim Burke, a military adviser to the Irish Defense Forces.\nIn more than 20 countries, according to the ICRC, cluster bombs have created lasting \"no-go\" areas, rendering them as dangerous as minefields.\nLaos is the most affected country.

        "title": "Is it ADHD or Auditory Processing Disorder? | EdPsyched",
        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s post comes courtesy of a student I recently evaluated. As a current 7th grader, she was referred to me because she was having trouble paying attention in class and keeping up with her teachers\u2019 lectures. She was originally diagnosed with ADHD by her family physician in 4th grade and put on various medications to help control it, but her mother wanted a more comprehensive evaluation to determine if something else was going on.\nThis particular student, like many, was given a diagnosis of ADHD with a very brief assessment of her symptoms. Since there is no single definitive test for ADHD, doctors rely on qualitative as well as quantitative data to piece together enough evidence either to confirm or rule out a diagnosis. Consequently, a brief assessment of symptoms can often times lead to an inaccurate diagnosis of ADHD.\nDuring the initial in-take interview, this student confirmed symptoms of ADHD, including difficulty maintaining focus in class, forgetting to do certain tasks, and the appearance of \u201czoning out\u201d in class. Although her grades were very good, she admitted that she does not always enjoy school because it can be difficult. On their own, these symptoms do indeed sound like those of ADHD. Let\u2019s take a closer look.\nWhat are symptoms of ADHD?\nDoes not always complete tasks\nStruggles with organization and time management\nEasily distracted by outside stimuli\nDoes not always listen to others\nAccording to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V), which is the manual used for psychiatric diagnoses (including ADHD), a diagnosis of ADHD requires \u201ca persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity that interferes with functioning or development\u201d (59), with most symptoms appearing before age 12. That means the symptoms above must be severe enough that it adversely impacts a student\u2019s ability either inside or outside of the classroom. This certainly seems to be the case for her.\nIn addition to the above symptoms, however, both the student and her mother shared additional information, including the student\u2019s sensitivity to loud noises and increased difficulty focusing in loud environments, such as concerts or presentations in large auditoriums. Hmmm, now I am hearing evidence of an auditory processing disorder (APD).\nWhat are symptoms of auditory processing disorder?\nAppears as though student is not paying attention\nCan seem forgetful\nHas difficulty following auditory directions\nAbility to focus is impacted by loud noises\nDifficulty following conversations and formulating responses\nAs you can see, the symptoms of APD can look very similar to those of ADHD. It\u2019s important to note that the DSM-V does not contain a diagnosis of APD. Instead, APD must be verified and diagnosed by an audiologist. While ADHD is a brain disorder, APD is a weakness in the pathways the connect the ear and the central nervous system that processes those sounds. Therefore, treatment of APD is much different that ADHD and does not require the use of medication.\nAt the conclusion of the student\u2019s evaluation, the evidence strongly suggested a diagnosis of APD rather than ADHD. Although I cannot officially diagnose her, I did refer her to an audiologist for further testing. I also made the recommendation that she consult with her pediatrician to determine if continued medication was necessary.\nThe good news for her is that most adolescents who struggle with APD see their symptoms dramatically reduced by the time they are 13. This mostly has to do with the natural maturation of those pathways between the ear and the central nervous system. In the event that symptoms do not improve, however, there are many steps to take to help.\nIf your student is displaying signs or symptoms of ADHD or APD, I strongly recommend you see a psychologist or psychiatrist who can evaluate for both. Although as many as 50% of students have a co-diagnosis, the other 50% do not. Receiving an accurate diagnosis is imperative to your student\u2019s success.",

        "raw_content": "by user | Mar 5, 2014 | News\nVatican City, 25 February 2014 (VIS) \u2013 Pope Francis has written a letter to families asking them to pray for the next Synod of Bishops, which will be celebrated in the Vatican in October, and the theme of which will be \u201cThe pastoral challenges of the family in the context of evangelisation\u201d. The letter, dated 2 February, Feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple, is published in full below:\nWith this letter, I wish, as it were, to come into your homes to speak about an event which will take place at the Vatican this coming October. It is the Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, which is being convened to discuss the theme of \u201cpastoral challenges to the family in the context of evangelization\u201d. Indeed, in our day the Church is called to proclaim the Gospel by confronting the new and urgent pastoral needs facing the family.\nThis important meeting will involve all the People of God \u2013 bishops, priests, consecrated men and women, and lay faithful of the particular Churches of the entire world \u2013 all of whom are actively participating in preparations for the meeting through practical suggestions and the crucial support of prayer. Such support on your part, dear families, is especially significant and more necessary than ever. This Synodal Assembly is dedicated in a special way to you, to your vocation and mission in the Church and in society; to the challenges of marriage, of family life, of the education of children; and the role of the family in the life of the Church. I ask you, therefore, to pray intensely to the Holy Spirit, so that the Spirit may illumine the Synodal Fathers and guide them in their important task. As you know, this Extraordinary Synodal Assembly will be followed a year later by the Ordinary Assembly, which will also have the family as its theme. In that context, there will also be the World Meeting of Families due to take place in Philadelphia in September 2015. May we all, then, pray together so that through these events the Church will undertake a true journey of discernment and adopt the necessary pastoral means to help families face their present challenges with the light and strength that comes from the Gospel.\nI am writing this letter to you on the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple. The evangelist Luke tells us that the Blessed Mother and Saint Joseph, in keeping with the Law of Moses, took the Baby Jesus to the temple to offer him to the Lord, and that an elderly man and woman, Simeon and Anna, moved by the Holy Spirit, went to meet them and acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah. Simeon took him in his arms and thanked God that he had finally \u2018seen\u2019 salvation. Anna, despite her advanced age, found new vigour and began to speak to everyone about the Baby. It is a beautiful image: two young parents and two elderly people, brought together by Jesus. He is the one who brings together and unites generations! He is the inexhaustible font of that love which overcomes every occasion of self-absorption, solitude, and sadness. In your journey as a family, you share so many beautiful moments: meals, rest, housework, leisure, prayer, trips and pilgrimages, and times of mutual support\u2026 Nevertheless, if there is no love then there is no joy, and authentic love comes to us from Jesus. He offers us his word, which illuminates our path; he gives us the Bread of life which sustains us on our journey.\nDear families, your prayer for the Synod of Bishops will be a precious treasure which enriches the Church. I thank you, and I ask you to pray also for me, so that I may serve the People of God in truth and in love. May the protection of the Blessed Mother and Saint Joseph always accompany all of you and help you to walk united in love and in caring for one another. I willingly invoke on every family the blessing of the Lord.\u201d\nARCHBISHOP PAGLIA: FAMILIES ARE A MAJORITY IN THE CHURCH\nVatican City, 25 February 2014 (VIS) \u2013 Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, president of the Pontifical Council for the Family, commented in his presentation of the Pope\u2019s letter to families that during these months the family has been, more than ever before, in the mind and the heart of the Church. He gave examples including the pilgrimage of families for the Year of Faith, the Holy Father\u2019s encounter with engaged couples on 14 February, last week\u2019s extraordinary Consistory in the Vatican, the next Synod which will take place in October, and the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia, U.S.A., scheduled for September 2015.\n\u201cPope Francis, with this letter to the \u2018dear families\u2019 of the world, wishes to involve them in the Synod path\u201d, explained the Archbishop. \u2026 Prayer is the first form of participation in this joint path. Families \u2013 and this is the Pope\u2019s intention \u2013 are not simply the object of attention, but are also the subjects of this pilgrimage, given that they form a majority within the Church, and are marked by the Sacrament of Marriage\u201d.\n\u201cOne must not forget that that spread of early Christianity occurred through a network of families\u201d, he added. \u201cIt is an important lesson for our times, in which we invoke a new missionary season for evangelical preaching. \u2026 The Pope asks Christian families to be aware of the responsibility of their mission in times of confusion and restlessness. He asks for their help. In addition, if there is a theme of Christian life, for which the support of the family is indispensable both to the Pope and to the Church, then this is it. If there were no families, then Jesus\u2019 Word \u2013 the word of the Church, the word of the Pope \u2013 on the married love which is able to open us up to God\u2019s unconditional love for all, would appear abstract, unrealistic and ineffectual\u201d.\n\u201cBut families, thanks to God, exist and have a living presence\u201d, concluded the prelate. \u201cTherefore, it is important for Pastors and families to live \u2018in harmony in prayer\u2019 in this time, as if in a spiritual Cenacle that gathers the whole world together, waiting for the Spirit to evoke a renewed Pentecost\u201d.",

In March 2017, Asahi ended its labour hire agreement and engaged Toll Transport, who solely used the same labour hire company for staff until September 2017, when it began engaging employees from Toll Personnel. The Applicant began employment with Toll Personnel in February 2018 and was engaged by Toll Transport to work at Asahi. The Applicant\u2019s employment ceased in March 2018.\nOutcome: Held that the Applicant\u2019s service with the initial labour hire company is recognised with Toll Personnel, as the work performed by the Applicant was the same for both employers and the work had been outsourced from the old labour hire company to Toll Personnel. Therefore, the minimum employment period was met.\nHarrison v FLSmidth Pty Ltd [2018] FWC 6695 (29 October 2018)\nSummary: The employee was demoted from a Supervisor to a Technician at the same time he received a first and final warning letter, resulting in a pay drop of $4.05 per hour. The Company submitted that this was expressly permitted in the contract, which stated that the employee may be required to \u2018perform other duties\u2019 and \u2018perform a different role\u2019.\nOutcome: There was no term of the contract, express or implied, allowing for unilateral demotion. Regardless of what the terms of the contract were, the demotion involved a significant loss of duties and pay, and was therefore a dismissal within the meaning of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth).\nKey notes: Employers cannot \u2018contract out\u2019 of legislative provisions, unless expressly permitted by the legislation.\nEMA Consulting, Fair Work Commission, FWC, unfair dismissal",

The additional agreement will create conditions for implementation of the project throughout the whole country.\nAccording to specialists, the project will allow to achieve energy savings in the residential sector in the amount of up to 2.75 billion kilowatt/hour annually within the next 10 years, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the amount of up to 1.935 million tons annually.\nThe energy consumption in Uzbekistan is 2-2.5 times higher than the corresponding figures in developed countries. Taking into account the population growth, increase in incomes of people, acceleration of urbanization processes and corresponding change in the structure of consumption, the demand for energy resources can increase by 2.5 times in the construction sector by 2030.\nThe country has introduced standards for energy management of production and labeling of household equipment. Energy-efficient technologies are being introduced in the street lighting system and energy-saving lamps for residential and public buildings.\nThe sale of incandescent lamps with a power exceeding 40 watts has been stopped in the country. In budgetary institutions, energy-intensive boilers are gradually replaced by energy-efficient boilers.

        "raw_content": "Canadian Company Sues United States over Alleged NAFTA Violation\nJanuary 12, 2016\u2022 International Trade\u2022 by EW News Desk Team\nTransCanada, the Canadian company synonymous with the Keystone XL pipeline, announced its intention to sue the United States under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The case will be filed in both an international tribunal and a U.S. Federal Court in Dallas.\nAccording to TransCanada, it \"has been unjustly deprived of the value of its multi-billion dollar investment by the U.S. Administration's action.\" Per the company's recent press release, TransCanada hopes to recover $15 billion from the U.S. government as compensation for lost profits related to the government's denial of permits related to constructing the pipeline. The companion federal suit seeks declaratory relief, asking the court to decide that the permit denial was without legal merit and that the company can construct the pipeline without further approval.\nAlthough the lawsuits arise under NAFTA, the suits rely on a provision called Investor State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) to overcome the concept of sovereign immunity. Under sovereign immunity, governments are usually exempt from lawsuits when acting within the course of their ordinary duties. ISDS, however, allows corporations to sue foreign governments for damages. ISDS provisions have become increasingly common features in many trade agreements, and this has given a number of economic and environmental analysts reason to pause.\nAccording to Yes! magazine, ISDS originated in the mid-20th century during the cold war, when companies feared a revolutionary government (\"a government with communist leanings\") might nationalize certain industries, seizing the company's assets. The use of ISDS was to hold those governments accountable and to provide a means of redress for the injured companies.\nHowever, in the wake of the end of the cold war, legal professionals and their clients have sought to test the limits of ISDS. This has led to lawsuits such as the one against the United States for refusing to allow the completion of a pipeline that many fear could have a negative impact on the environment.\nTo environmental groups, like Sierra Club and Greenpeace, lawsuits like the one TransCanada brought represent the realization of a sort of nightmare situation. A private company, with more concern for profit than the long-term consequences its actions may have on the environment, now brings the most powerful nation on the planet to court because it did not get its way. This very situation is why these groups have become so outspoken against other trade agreements, like the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).\nThey fear that ISDS provisions in those agreements could render laws and political movements aimed at improving the environment and reducing the effects of global climate change moot. After all, even the most powerful of nations may think twice about enforcing environmental regulations if it may face a costly international lawsuit at every turn.\n\"The challenge is that we need to be clearing the path so all countries can put in place the most ambitious climate policies possible in order to meet and exceed those goals. But the Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, if put into law, would essentially put new roadblocks in the way that would threaten or slow the ability to make the changes our economy needs,\" said Ilana Solomon, head of the Sierra Club's Responsible Trade Program.\n\"In the halls of power where the [Paris] deal was being crafted there was very little discussion of trade and there's a real challenge that these two issues\u2014climate and trade\u2014are operating in separate silos. In the trade negotiations, climate change is totally absent from the discussions,\" Solomon pointed out. \"If we're really serious about taking on the climate crisis, we have to stop entering into trade agreements that constrain our ability to do so.\"",

        "raw_content": "Nino Farina Italy\nFull name Emilio Giuseppe Farina\nNickname The Gentleman of Turin\nBirthplace Turin, Italy\nPlace of death Argentine, France\nTeams Alfa Romeo, Ferrari\n1950 Alfa Romeo 6 6 3 3 5 1 2 6 1 3 1 30 1\n1954 Ferrari 2 2 0 1 1 2 1 2 1 0 0 6 8\nFirst race British Grand Prix Silverstone May 13, 1950 Race results\nNino Farina is the name at the top of the list of Formula One history as he was the winner of the inaugural World Championship, in 1950. He should also be recalled, however, as one of the sport's most prolific crashers and of its most temperamental champions.\nHe started in hill climbs in the early-1930s, but crashed first time out and hospitalized himself. He progressed to circuit racing the following year with a Maserati, then raced an Alfa Romeo under the tutelage of the great Tazio Nuvolari. He made mistakes aplenty in an age when mistakes were frequently punished with a fatal outcome, but kept coming back for more and became a grand prix winner at Naples in 1937.\nHe won the Italian drivers' title in 1937, 1938 and 1939, all for Alfa Romeo, with increasing success in assorted grands prix around Europe where he gave chase to the dominant works entries from Auto Union and Mercedes, thus putting himself into a strong position to land a top drive when the Second World War ended.\nHe won the Grand Prix des Nations in Geneva for Alfa Romeo when racing resumed in 1946, but had a disagreement and quit the works team.\nAfter several years of racing privately entered Maseratis and works Ferraris and enjoying continued success in the assorted grands prix that made up the free-form calendar, he rejoined Alfa Romeo for 1950 and was duly rewarded when he won that first ever World Championship title - winning three of the year's grand total of six grands prix in the process.\nA model to other colleagues with his straight-arm driving style, Farina could not match the pace of his team-mate Juan Manuel Fangio in 1951 and ended up fourth overall, having won only the Belgian Grand Prix. For 1952 he joined Ferrari, but this did not produce a race win - apart from ones in the non-championship races that proliferated back then - until the 1953 German Grand Prix, as he was overshadowed by Ferrari team-mate Alberto Ascari.\nEngulfed in flames in a sports car race at Monza at the start of 1954, shortly after opening his campaign with second place in the Argentinian Grand Prix and breaking an arm in a crash in the Mille Miglia, he had to take time off to recover from his burns and was not back in the cockpit until 1955. However, this return did not last long as he was unable to live with the pain when racing and had to dose himself with morphine. So, he elected to retire midway through the season.\nSadly, he was unable to stay away and dabbled with the Indy 500 in 1956, failing to qualify, then broke a collarbone in practice for a sports car race. He entered a car for the Indy 500 in 1957, but his driver Keith Andrews was killed in practice and so he quit the sport. Well, almost, as he was killed in a car crash on the way to the French Grand Prix nine years later, at the age of 59.\nHis relaxed straight-arm style was legendary and much copied, and his single-mindedness was key to his success. But to many he was too reckless and in an era when the mortality rate among drivers was so high, that he was not one of the casualties was remarkable. When he did crash he refused to take the blame, always criticising the machinery, even though he was unwaveringly hard on his cars.\nAlthough many of his greatest achievements came before the era of Formula One, three of Farina's five grand prix wins came in 1950 and the third clinched him the inaugural title. He started the day at Monza third in the championship but for once his car proved reliable as his rivals fell by the wayside.\nHe crashed badly in a sports car event at the start of 1954 and sustained serious burns. He returned to racing but needed amphetamines and morphine to cope with the pain. By the following season it was all too much and he quit.\n\"He drove as if the devil was behind him and angels ahead.\"\n\"He was like a high strung thoroughbred, capable of committing the most astonishing follies. As a consequence he was a regular inmate of the hospital wards.\" Enzo Ferrari\nHe won the first Formula One championship race (Silverstone 1950) and the first world title in the same season\nHe received a doctorate in law from the University of Turin and was widely known as Dr Giuseppe Farina",

However, poor form for the Hurricanes during the 2011 Super Rugby season put his place in the Kiwis' World Cup squad in jeopardy. After being handed a start in New Zealand's Tri-Nations opener against South Africa, Jane proved his worth by notching twice, with his first try a stunning solo effort from halfway.He was eventually named in the All Blacks squad for the World Cup, instead of the likes of Sitiveni Sivivatu and Hosea Gear.\nThe winger was spotted drinking and smoking with team-mate Israel Dagg just 72 hours before the All Blacks' quarter-final against Argentina, but he found redemption in the form of sensational performances against the Pumas and the in the final against France as the All Blacks won the World Cup.

Though often cited as a post-structuralist and postmodernist, Foucault rejected these labels, preferring to present his thought as a critical history of modernity. His thought has influenced academics, especially those working in communication studies, sociology, cultural studies, literary theory, feminism, and critical theory. Activist groups have also found his theories compelling.\nBorn in Poitiers, France, into an upper-middle-class family, Foucault was educated at the Lyc\u00e9e Henri-IV, at the \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure, where he developed an interest in philosophy and came under the influence of his tutors Jean Hyppolite and Louis Althusser, and at the University of Paris (Sorbonne), where he earned degrees in philosophy and psychology. After several years as a cultural diplomat abroad, he returned to France and published his first major book, The History of Madness (1961). After obtaining work between 1960 and 1966 at the University of Clermont-Ferrand, he produced The Birth of the Clinic (1963) and The Order of Things (1966), publications which displayed his increasing involvement with structuralism, from which he later distanced himself. These first three histories exemplified a historiographical technique Foucault was developing called \"archaeology\".\nFrom 1966 to 1968, Foucault lectured at the University of Tunis before returning to France, where he became head of the philosophy department at the new experimental university of Paris VIII. Foucault subsequently published The Archaeology of Knowledge (1969). In 1970, Foucault was admitted to the Coll\u00e8ge de France, a membership he retained until his death. He also became active in a number of left-wing groups involved in campaigns against racism and human rights abuses and for penal reform. Foucault later published Discipline and Punish (1975) and The History of Sexuality (1976), in which he developed archaeological and genealogical methods which emphasized the role that power plays in society.\nFoucault died in Paris of neurological problems compounded by HIV/AIDS; he became the first public figure in France to die from the disease. His partner Daniel Defert founded the AIDES charity in his memory.\n1.1 Youth: 1926\u201346\n1.2 \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure and University of Paris: 1946\u201351\n1.4 Sweden, Poland, and West Germany: 1955\u201360\n2 Growing career\n2.1 Madness and Civilization: 1960\n2.2 University of Clermont-Ferrand, The Birth of the Clinic, and The Order of Things: 1960\u201366\n2.3 University of Tunis and Vincennes: 1966\u201370\n3.1 Coll\u00e8ge de France and Discipline and Punish: 1970\u201375\n3.2 The History of Sexuality and Iranian Revolution: 1976\u201379\n3.3 Final years: 1980\u201384\n6.1 Critiques and engagements\n6.1.1 Crypto-normativity\n6.1.2 Genealogy as historical method\n6.1.3 Feminist critiques\n6.1.5 Social constructionism and human nature\n6.1.6 Education and authority\nYouth: 1926\u201346[]\nPaul-Michel Foucault was born on 15 October 1926 in the city of Poitiers, west-central France, as the second of three children in a prosperous and socially conservative upper-middle-class family.[5] Family tradition prescribed naming him after his father, Paul Foucault, but his mother insisted on the addition of \"Michel\"; referred to as \"Paul\" at school, he expressed a preference for \"Michel\" throughout his life.[6]\nHis father (1893\u20131959), a successful local surgeon born in Fontainebleau, moved to Poitiers, where he set up his own practice and married local woman Anne Malapert.[7] She was the daughter of prosperous surgeon Dr. Prosper Malapert, who owned a private practice and taught anatomy at the University of Poitiers' School of Medicine.[8] Paul Foucault eventually took over his father-in-law's medical practice, while his wife took charge of their large mid-19th-century house, Le Piroir, in the village of Vendeuvre-du-Poitou.[9] Together the couple had three children \u2013 a girl named Francine and two boys, Paul-Michel and Denys \u2013 who all shared the same fair hair and bright blue eyes.[10] The children were raised to be nominal Roman Catholics, attending mass at the Church of Saint-Porchair, and while Michel briefly became an altar boy, none of the family were devout.[11]\n\u201c I wasn't always smart, I was actually very stupid in school ... [T]here was a boy who was very attractive who was even stupider than I was. And in order to ingratiate myself with this boy who was very beautiful, I began to do his homework for him\u2014and that's how I became smart, I had to do all this work to just keep ahead of him a little bit, in order to help him. In a sense, all the rest of my life I've been trying to do intellectual things that would attract beautiful boys. \u201d\n\u2014 Michel Foucault, 1983[12]\nIn later life, Foucault would reveal very little about his childhood.[13] Describing himself as a \"juvenile delinquent\", he claimed his father was a \"bully\" who would sternly punish him.[14] In 1930 Foucault began his schooling, two years early, at the local Lyc\u00e9e Henry-IV. Here he undertook two years of elementary education before entering the main lyc\u00e9e, where he stayed until 1936. He then undertook his first four years of secondary education at the same establishment, excelling in French, Greek, Latin and history but doing poorly at arithmetic and mathematics.[15] In 1939 the Second World War broke out and in 1940 Nazi Germany occupied France; Foucault's parents opposed the occupation and the Vichy regime, but did not join the Resistance.[16] In 1940 Foucault's mother enrolled him in the Coll\u00e8ge Saint-Stanislas, a strict Roman Catholic institution run by the Jesuits. Lonely, he described his years there as an \"ordeal\", but he excelled academically, particularly in philosophy, history and literature.[17] In 1942 he entered his final year, the terminale, where he focused on the study of philosophy, earning his baccalaur\u00e9at in 1943.[18]\nReturning to the local Lyc\u00e9e Henry-IV, he studied history and philosophy for a year,[19] aided by a personal tutor, the philosopher Louis Girard [fr].[20] Rejecting his father's wishes that he become a surgeon, in 1945 Foucault went to Paris, where he enrolled in one of the country's most prestigious secondary schools, which was also known as the Lyc\u00e9e Henri-IV. Here he studied under the philosopher Jean Hyppolite, an existentialist and expert on the work of 19th-century German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Hyppolite had devoted himself to uniting existentialist theories with the dialectical theories of Hegel and Karl Marx. These ideas influenced Foucault, who adopted Hyppolite's conviction that philosophy must develop through a study of history.[21]\n\u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure and University of Paris: 1946\u201351[]\nAttaining excellent results, in autumn 1946 Foucault was admitted to the \u00e9lite \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure (ENS); to gain entry, he undertook exams and an oral interrogation by Georges Canguilhem and Pierre-Maxime Schuhl. Of the hundred students entering the ENS, Foucault ranked fourth based on his entry results, and encountered the highly competitive nature of the institution. Like most of his classmates, he lived in the school's communal dormitories on the Parisian Rue d'Ulm.[22] He remained largely unpopular, spending much time alone, reading voraciously. His fellow students noted his love of violence and the macabre; he decorated his bedroom with images of torture and war drawn during the Napoleonic Wars by Spanish artist Francisco Goya, and on one occasion chased a classmate with a dagger.[23] Prone to self-harm, in 1948 Foucault allegedly attempted suicide; his father sent him to see the psychiatrist Jean Delay at the Sainte-Anne Hospital Center. Obsessed with the idea of self-mutilation and suicide, Foucault attempted the latter several times in ensuing years, praising suicide in later writings.[24] The ENS's doctor examined Foucault's state of mind, suggesting that his suicidal tendencies emerged from the distress surrounding his homosexuality, because same-sex sexual activity was socially taboo in France.[25] At the time, Foucault engaged in homosexual activity with men whom he encountered in the underground Parisian gay scene, also indulging in drug use; according to biographer James Miller, he enjoyed the thrill and sense of danger that these activities offered him.[26]\nAlthough studying various subjects, Foucault soon gravitated towards philosophy, reading not only Hegel and Marx but also Immanuel Kant, Edmund Husserl and most significantly, Martin Heidegger.[27] He began reading the publications of philosopher Gaston Bachelard, taking a particular interest in his work exploring the history of science.[28] He graduated from the ENS with a DES (dipl\u00f4me d'\u00e9tudes sup\u00e9rieures [fr], roughly equivalent to an MA) in Philosophy in 1949.[1] His DES thesis under the direction of Hyppolite was titled La Constitution d'un transcendental dans La Ph\u00e9nom\u00e9nologie de l'esprit de Hegel (The Constitution of a Historical Transcendental in Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit).[1]\nIn 1948, the philosopher Louis Althusser became a tutor at the ENS. A Marxist, he influenced both Foucault and a number of other students, encouraging them to join the French Communist Party (Parti communiste fran\u00e7ais, PCF). Foucault did so in 1950, but never became particularly active in its activities, and never adopted an orthodox Marxist viewpoint, refuting core Marxist tenets such as class struggle.[29] He soon became dissatisfied with the bigotry that he experienced within the party's ranks; he personally faced homophobia and was appalled by the anti-semitism exhibited during the 1952-1953 \"Doctors' plot\" in the Soviet Union. He left the Communist Party in 1953, but remained Althusser's friend and defender for the rest of his life.[30] Although failing at the first attempt in 1950, he passed his agr\u00e9gation in philosophy on the second try, in 1951.[31] Excused from national service on medical grounds, he decided to start a doctorate at the Fondation Thiers in 1951, focusing on the philosophy of psychology,[32] but he relinquished it after only one year in 1952.[33]\nFoucault was also interested in psychology and he attended Daniel Lagache's lectures at the University of Paris, where he obtained a BA (licence) in Psychology in 1949 and a Diploma in Psychopathology (Dipl\u00f4me de psychopathologie) from the University's Institute of Psychology (now Institut de psychologie de l'universit\u00e9 Paris Descartes [fr]) in June 1952.[1]\nEarly career: 1951\u20131955[]\nOver the following few years, Foucault embarked on a variety of research and teaching jobs.[34] From 1951 to 1955, he worked as a psychology instructor at the ENS at Althusser's invitation.[35] In Paris, he shared a flat with his brother, who was training to become a surgeon, but for three days in the week commuted to the northern town of Lille, teaching psychology at the Universit\u00e9 de Lille from 1953 to 1954.[36] Many of his students liked his lecturing style.[37] Meanwhile, he continued working on his thesis, visiting the Biblioth\u00e8que Nationale every day to read the work of psychologists like Ivan Pavlov, Jean Piaget and Karl Jaspers.[38] Undertaking research at the psychiatric institute of the Sainte-Anne Hospital, he became an unofficial intern, studying the relationship between doctor and patient and aiding experiments in the electroencephalographic laboratory.[39] Foucault adopted many of the theories of the psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, undertaking psychoanalytical interpretation of his dreams and making friends undergo Rorschach tests.[40]\nEmbracing the Parisian avant-garde, Foucault entered into a romantic relationship with the serialist composer Jean Barraqu\u00e9. Together, they tried to produce their greatest work, heavily used recreational drugs and engaged in sado-masochistic sexual activity.[41] In August 1953, Foucault and Barraqu\u00e9 holidayed in Italy, where the philosopher immersed himself in Untimely Mations (1873\u201376), a set of four essays by the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Later describing Nietzsche's work as \"a revelation\", he felt that reading the book deeply affected him, being a watershed moment in his life.[42] Foucault subsequently experienced another groundbreaking self-revelation when watching a Parisian performance of Samuel Beckett's new play, Waiting for Godot, in 1953.[43]\nInterested in literature, Foucault was an avid reader of the philosopher Maurice Blanchot's book reviews published in Nouvelle Revue Fran\u00e7aise. Enamoured of Blanchot's literary style and critical theories, in later works he adopted Blanchot's technique of \"interviewing\" himself.[44] Foucault also came across Hermann Broch's 1945 novel The Death of Virgil, a work that obsessed both him and Barraqu\u00e9. While the latter attempted to convert the work into an epic opera, Foucault admired Broch's text for its portrayal of death as an affirmation of life.[45] The couple took a mutual interest in the work of such authors as the Marquis de Sade, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Franz Kafka and Jean Genet, all of whose works explored the themes of sex and violence.[46]\n\u201c I belong to that generation who, as students, had before their eyes, and were limited by, a horizon consisting of Marxism, phenomenology and existentialism. For me the break was first Beckett's Waiting for Godot, a breathtaking performance. \u201d\nInterested in the work of Swiss psychologist Ludwig Binswanger, Foucault aided family friend Jacqueline Verdeaux in translating his works into French. Foucault was particularly interested in Binswanger's studies of Ellen West who, like himself, had a deep obsession with suicide, eventually killing herself.[48] In 1954, Foucault authored an introduction to Binswanger's paper \"Dream and Existence\", in which he argued that dreams constituted \"the birth of the world\" or \"the heart laid bare\", expressing the mind's deepest desires.[49] That same year, Foucault published his first book, Mental Illness and Personality (Maladie mentale et personalit\u00e9), in which he exhibited his influence from both Marxist and Heideggerian thought, covering a wide range of subject matter from the reflex psychology of Pavlov to the classic psychoanalysis of Freud. Referencing the work of sociologists and anthropologists such as \u00c9mile Durkheim and Margaret Mead, he presented his theory that illness was culturally relative.[50] Biographer James Miller noted that while the book exhibited \"erudition and evident intelligence\", it lacked the \"kind of fire and flair\" which Foucault exhibited in subsequent works.[51] It was largely critically ignored, receiving only one review at the time.[52] Foucault grew to despise it, unsuccessfully attempting to prevent its republication and translation into English.[53]\nSweden, Poland, and West Germany: 1955\u201360[]\nFoucault spent the next five years abroad, first in Sweden, working as cultural diplomat at the University of Uppsala, a job obtained through his acquaintance with historian of religion Georges Dum\u00e9zil.[54] At Uppsala he was appointed a Reader in French language and literature, while simultaneously working as director of the Maison de France, thus opening the possibility of a cultural-diplomatic career.[55] Although finding it difficult to adjust to the \"Nordic gloom\" and long winters, he developed close friendships with two Frenchmen, biochemist Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Miquel and physicist Jacques Papet-L\u00e9pine, and entered into romantic and sexual relationships with various men. In Uppsala, he became known for his heavy alcohol consumption and reckless driving in his new Jaguar car.[56] In spring 1956, Barraqu\u00e9 broke from his relationship with Foucault, announcing that he wanted to leave the \"vertigo of madness\".[57] In Uppsala, Foucault spent much of his spare time in the university's Carolina Rediviva library, making use of their Bibliotheca Walleriana collection of texts on the history of medicine for his ongoing research.[58] Finishing his doctoral thesis, Foucault hoped it would be accepted by Uppsala University, but Sten Lindroth, a positivistic historian of science there, was unimpressed, asserting that it was full of speculative generalisations and was a poor work of history; he refused to allow Foucault to be awarded a doctorate at Uppsala. In part because of this rejection, Foucault left Sweden.[59] Later, Foucault admitted that the work was a first draft with certain lack of quality.[60]\nAgain at Dum\u00e9zil's recognition, in October 1958 Foucault arrived in the Polish capital - Warsaw, placed in charge of the University of Warsaw's Centre Fran\u00e7ais.[61] Foucault found life in Poland difficult due to the lack of material goods and services following the destruction of the Second World War. Witnessing the aftermath of the Polish October in which students had protested against the governing communist Polish United Workers' Party, he felt that most Poles despised their government as a puppet regime of the Soviet Union, and thought that the system ran \"badly\".[62] Considering the university a liberal enclave, he traveled the country giving lectures; proving popular, he adopted the position of de facto cultural attach\u00e9.[63] As in France and Sweden, homosexual activity was legal but socially frowned upon in Poland, and he undertook relationships with a number of men; one was a Polish security agent who hoped to trap Foucault in an embarrassing situation, which would therefore reflect badly on the French embassy. Wracked in diplomatic scandal, he was ordered to leave Poland for a new destination.[64] Various positions were available in West Germany, and so Foucault relocated to the Institut fran\u00e7ais Hamburg [de] (where he was director in 1958\u201360), teaching the same courses he had given in Uppsala and Warsaw.[65][66] Spending much time in the Reeperbahn red light district, he entered into a relationship with a transvestite.[67]\nGrowing career[]\nMadness and Civilization: 1960[]\n\u201c Histoire de la folie is not an easy text to read, and it defies attempts to summarise its contents. Foucault refers to a bewildering variety of sources, ranging from well-known authors such as Erasmus and Moli\u00e8re to archival documents and forgotten figures in the history of medicine and psychiatry. His erudition derives from years pondering, to cite Poe, 'over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore', and his learning is not always worn lightly. \u201d\n\u2014 Foucault biographer David Macey, 1993[68]\nIn West Germany, Foucault completed in 1960 his primary thesis (th\u00e8se principale) for his State doctorate, entitled Folie et d\u00e9raison: Histoire de la folie \u00e0 l'\u00e2ge classique (Madness and Insanity: History of Madness in the Classical Age), a philosophical work based upon his studies into the history of medicine. The book discussed how West European society had dealt with madness, arguing that it was a social construct distinct from mental illness. Foucault traces the evolution of the concept of madness through three phases: the Renaissance, the later 17th and 18th centuries, and the modern experience. The work alludes to the work of French poet and playwright Antonin Artaud, who exerted a strong influence over Foucault's thought at the time.[69]\nHistoire de la folie was an expansive work, consisting of 943 pages of text, followed by appendices and a bibliography.[70] Foucault submitted it at the University of Paris, although the university's regulations for awarding a State doctorate required the submission of both his main thesis and a shorter complementary thesis.[71] Obtaining a doctorate in France at the period was a multi-step process. The first step was to obtain a rapporteur, or \"sponsor\" for the work: Foucault chose Georges Canguilhem.[72] The second was to find a publisher, and as a result Folie et d\u00e9raison would be published in French in May 1961 by the company Plon, whom Foucault chose over Presses Universitaires de France after being rejected by Gallimard.[73] In 1964, a heavily abridged version was published as a mass market paperback, then translated into English for publication the following year as Madness and Civilization.[74]\nFolie et d\u00e9raison received a mixed reception in France and in foreign journals focusing on French affairs. Although it was critically acclaimed by Maurice Blanchot, Michel Serres, Roland Barthes, Gaston Bachelard, and Fernand Braudel, it was largely ignored by the leftist press, much to Foucault's disappointment.[75] It was notably criticised for advocating metaphysics by young philosopher Jacques Derrida in a March 1963 lecture at the University of Paris. Responding with a vicious retort, Foucault criticised Derrida's interpretation of Ren\u00e9 Descartes. The two remained bitter rivals until reconciling in 1981.[76] In the English-speaking world, the work became a significant influence on the anti-psychiatry movement during the 1960s; Foucault took a mixed approach to this, associating with a number of anti-psychiatrists but arguing that most of them misunderstood his work.[77]\nFoucault's secondary thesis (his th\u00e8se compl\u00e9mentaire written in Hamburg between 1959 and 1960) was a translation and commentary on German philosopher Immanuel Kant's 1798 work Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View (the title of his thesis was \"Introduction \u00e0 l'Anthropologie\", \"Introduction to Kant's Anthropology\").[66][78] Largely consisting of Foucault's discussion of textual dating\u2014an \"archaeology of the Kantian text\"\u2014he rounded off the thesis with an evocation of Nietzsche, his biggest philosophical influence.[79] This work's rapporteur was his old tutor and then director of the ENS, Hyppolite, who was well acquainted with German philosophy.[70] After both theses were championed and reviewed, he underwent his public defense, the soutenance de th\u00e8se, on 20 May 1961.[80] The academics responsible for reviewing his work were concerned about the unconventional nature of his major thesis; reviewer Henri Gouhier noted that it was not a conventional work of history, making sweeping generalisations without sufficient particular argument, and that Foucault clearly \"thinks in allegories\".[81] They all agreed however that the overall project was of merit, awarding Foucault his doctorate \"despite reservations\".[82]\nUniversity of Clermont-Ferrand, The Birth of the Clinic, and The Order of Things: 1960\u201366[]\nIn October 1960, Foucault took a tenured post in philosophy at the University of Clermont-Ferrand, commuting to the city every week from Paris,[83] where he lived in a high-rise block on the rue du Dr Finlay.[84] Responsible for teaching psychology, which was subsumed within the philosophy department, he was considered a \"fascinating\" but \"rather traditional\" teacher at Clermont.[85] The department was run by Jules Vuillemin, who soon developed a friendship with Foucault.[86] Foucault then took Vuillemin's job when the latter was elected to the Coll\u00e8ge de France in 1962.[87] In this position, Foucault took a dislike to another staff member whom he considered stupid: Roger Garaudy, a senior figure in the Communist Party. Foucault made life at the university difficult for Garaudy, leading the latter to transfer to Poitiers.[88] Foucault also caused controversy by securing a university job for his lover, the philosopher Daniel Defert, with whom he retained a non-monogamous relationship for the rest of his life.[89]\nFoucault maintained a keen interest in literature, publishing reviews in amongst others the literary journals Tel Quel and Nouvelle Revue Fran\u00e7aise, and sitting on the orial board of Critique.[90] In May 1963, he published a book devoted to poet, novelist, and playwright Raymond Roussel. It was written in under two months, published by Gallimard, and would be described by biographer David Macey as \"a very personal book\" that resulted from a \"love affair\" with Roussel's work. It would be published in English in 1983 as Death and the Labyrinth: The World of Raymond Roussel.[91] Receiving few reviews, it was largely ignored.[92] That same year he published a sequel to Folie et d\u00e9raison, entitled Naissance de la Clinique, subsequently translated as The Birth of the Clinic: An Archaeology of Medical Perception. Shorter than its predecessor, it focused on the changes that the medical establishment underwent in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.[93] Like his preceding work, Naissance de la Clinique was largely critically ignored, but later gained a cult following.[92] It was of interest within the field of medical ethics, as it considered the ways in which the history of medicine and hospitals, and the training that those working within them receive, bring about a particular way of looking at the body - the 'medical gaze'.[94] Foucault was also selected to be among the \"Eighteen Man Commission\" that assembled between November 1963 and March 1964 to discuss university reforms that were to be implemented by Christian Fouchet, the Gaullist Minister of National Education. Implemented in 1967, they brought staff strikes and student protests.[95]\nIn April 1966, Gallimard published Foucault's Les Mots et les choses (\"Words and Things\"), later translated as The Order of Things: An Archaeology of the Human Sciences.[96] Exploring how man came to be an object of knowledge, it argued that all periods of history have possessed certain underlying conditions of truth that constituted what was acceptable as scientific discourse. Foucault argues that these conditions of discourse have changed over time, from one period's episteme to another.[97] Although designed for a specialist audience, the work gained media attention, becoming a surprise bestseller in France.[98] Appearing at the height of interest in structuralism, Foucault was quickly grouped with scholars Jacques Lacan, Claude L\u00e9vi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes, as the latest wave of thinkers set to topple the existentialism popularized by Jean-Paul Sartre. Although initially accepting this description, Foucault soon vehemently rejected it.[99] Foucault and Sartre regularly criticised one another in the press. Both Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir attacked Foucault's ideas as \"bourgeois\", while Foucault retaliated against their Marxist beliefs by proclaiming that \"Marxism exists in nineteenth-century thought as a fish exists in water; that is, it ceases to breathe anywhere else.\"[100]\nUniversity of Tunis and Vincennes: 1966\u201370[]\n\u201c I lived [in Tunisia] for two and a half years. It made a real impression. I was present for large, violent student riots that preceded by several weeks what happened in May in France. This was March 1968. The unrest lasted a whole year: strikes, courses suspended, arrests. And in March, a general strike by the students. The police came into the university, beat up the students, wounded several of them seriously, and started making arrests ... I have to say that I was tremendously impressed by those young men and women who took terrible risks by writing or distributing tracts or calling for strikes, the ones who really risked losing their freedom! It was a political experience for me. \u201d\n\u2014 Michel Foucault, 1983[101]\nIn September 1966, Foucault took a position teaching psychology at the University of Tunis in Tunisia. His decision to do so was largely because his lover, Defert, had been posted to the country as part of his national service. Foucault moved a few kilometres from Tunis, to the village of Sidi Bou Sa\u00efd, where fellow academic G\u00e9rard Deledalle lived with his wife. Soon after his arrival, Foucault announced that Tunisia was \"blessed by history\", a nation which \"deserves to live forever because it was where Hannibal and St. Augustine lived.\"[102] His lectures at the university proved very popular, and were well attended. Although many young students were enthusiastic about his teaching, they were critical of what they believed to be his right-wing political views, viewing him as a \"representative of Gaullist technocracy\", even though he considered himself a leftist.[103]\nFoucault was in Tunis during the anti-government and pro-Palestinian riots that rocked the city in June 1967, and which continued for a year. Although highly critical of the violent, ultra-nationalistic and anti-semitic nature of many protesters, he used his status to try to prevent some of his militant leftist students from being arrested and tortured for their role in the agitation. He hid their printing press in his garden, and tried to testify on their behalf at their trials, but was prevented when the trials became closed-door events.[104] While in Tunis, Foucault continued to write. Inspired by a correspondence with the surrealist artist Ren\u00e9 Magritte, Foucault started to write a book about the impressionist artist \u00c9douard Manet, but never completed it.[105]\nIn 1968, Foucault returned to Paris, moving into an apartment on the Rue de Vaugirard.[106] After the May 1968 student protests, Minister of Education Edgar Faure responded by founding new universities with greater autonomy. Most prominent of these was the Centre Exp\u00e9rimental de Vincennes in Vincennes on the outskirts of Paris. A group of prominent academics were asked to select teachers to run the Centre's departments, and Canguilheim recommended Foucault as head of the Philosophy Department.[107] Becoming a tenured professor of Vincennes, Foucault's desire was to obtain \"the best in French philosophy today\" for his department, employing Michel Serres, Judith Miller, Alain Badiou, Jacques Ranci\u00e8re, Fran\u00e7ois Regnault, Henri Weber, \u00c9tienne Balibar, and Fran\u00e7ois Ch\u00e2telet; most of them were Marxists or ultra-left activists.[108]\nLectures began at the university in January 1969, and straight away its students and staff, including Foucault, were involved in occupations and clashes with police, resulting in arrests.[109] In February, Foucault gave a speech denouncing police provocation to protesters at the Latin Quarter of the Mutualit\u00e9.[110] Such actions marked Foucault's embrace of the ultra-left,[111] undoubtedly influenced by Defert, who had gained a job at Vincennes' sociology department and who had become a Maoist.[112] Most of the courses at Foucault's philosophy department were Marxist-Leninist oriented, although Foucault himself gave courses on Nietzsche, \"The end of Metaphysics\", and \"The Discourse of Sexuality\", which were highly popular and over-subscribed.[113] While the right-wing press was heavily critical of this new institution, new Minister of Education Olivier Guichard was angered by its ideological bent and the lack of exams, with students being awarded degrees in a haphazard manner. He refused national accration of the department's degrees, resulting in a public rebuttal from Foucault.[114]\nColl\u00e8ge de France and Discipline and Punish: 1970\u201375[]\nFoucault desired to leave Vincennes and become a fellow of the prestigious Coll\u00e8ge de France. He requested to join, taking up a chair in what he called the \"history of systems of thought,\" and his request was championed by members Dum\u00e9zil, Hyppolite, and Vuillemin. In November 1969, when an opening became available, Foucault was elected to the Coll\u00e8ge, though with opposition by a large minority.[115] He gave his inaugural lecture in December 1970, which was subsequently published as L'Ordre du discours (The Discourse of Language).[116] He was obliged to give 12 weekly lectures a year\u2014and did so for the rest of his life\u2014covering the topics that he was researching at the time; these became \"one of the events of Parisian intellectual life\" and were repeatedly packed out events.[117] On Mondays, he also gave seminars to a group of students; many of them became a \"Foulcauldian tribe\" who worked with him on his research. He enjoyed this teamwork and collective research, and together they would publish a number of short books.[118] Working at the Coll\u00e8ge allowed him to travel widely, giving lectures in Brazil, Japan, Canada, and the United States over the next 14 years.[119] In 1970 and 1972, Foucault served as a professor in the French Department of the University at Buffalo in Buffalo, New York.[120]\nIn May 1971, Foucault co-founded the Groupe d'Information sur les Prisons (GIP) along with historian Pierre Vidal-Naquet and journalist Jean-Marie Domenach. The GIP aimed to investigate and expose poor conditions in prisons and give prisoners and ex-prisoners a voice in French society. It was highly critical of the penal system, believing that it converted petty criminals into hardened delinquents.[121] The GIP gave press conferences and staged protests surrounding the events of the Toul prison riot in December 1971, alongside other prison riots that it sparked off; in doing so it faced a police crackdown and repeated arrests.[122] The group became active across France, with 2,000 to 3,000, members, but disbanded before 1974.[123] Also campaigning against the death penalty, Foucault co-authored a short book on the case of the convicted murderer Pierre Rivi\u00e8re.[124] After his research into the penal system, Foucault published Surveiller et punir: Naissance de la prison (Discipline and Punish) in 1975, offering a history of the system in western Europe. In it, Foucault examines the penal evolution away from corporal and capital punishment to the penitentiary system that began in Europe and the United States around the end of the 18th century.[125] Biographer Didier Eribon described it as \"perhaps the finest\" of Foucault's works, and it was well received.[126]\nFoucault was also active in anti-racist campaigns; in November 1971, he was a leading figure in protests following the perceived racist killing of Arab migrant Dejellali Ben Ali.[citation needed] In this he worked alongside his old rival Sartre, the journalist Claude Mauriac, and one of his literary heroes, Jean Genet. This campaign was formalised as the Committee for the Defence of the Rights of Immigrants, but there was tension at their meetings as Foucault opposed the anti-Israeli sentiment of many Arab workers and Maoist activists.[127] At a December 1972 protest against the police killing of Algerian worker Mohammad Diab, both Foucault and Genet were arrested, resulting in widespread publicity.[128] Foucault was also involved in founding the Agence de Press-Lib\u00e9ration (APL), a group of leftist journalists who intended to cover news stories neglected by the mainstream press. In 1973, they established the daily newspaper Lib\u00e9ration, and Foucault suggested that they establish committees across France to collect news and distribute the paper, and advocated a column known as the \"Chronicle of the Workers' Memory\" to allow workers' to express their opinions. Foucault wanted an active journalistic role in the paper, but this proved untenable, and he soon became disillusioned with Lib\u00e9ration, believing that it distorted the facts; he would not publish in it until 1980.[129]\nThe History of Sexuality and Iranian Revolution: 1976\u201379[]\nIn 1976, Gallimard published Foucault's Histoire de la sexualit\u00e9: la volont\u00e9 de savoir (The History of Sexuality: The Will to Knowledge), a short book exploring what Foucault called the \"repressive hypothesis\". It revolved largely around the concept of power, rejecting both Marxist and Freudian theory. Foucault intended it as the first in a seven-volume exploration of the subject.[130] Histoire de la sexualit\u00e9 was a best-seller in France and gained positive press, but lukewarm intellectual interest, something that upset Foucault, who felt that many misunderstood his hypothesis.[131] He soon became dissatisfied with Gallimard after being offended by senior staff member Pierre Nora.[132] Along with Paul Veyne and Fran\u00e7ois Wahl, Foucault launched a new series of academic books, known as Des travaux (Some Works), through the company Seuil, which he hoped would improve the state of academic research in France.[133] He also produced introductions for the memoirs of Herculine Barbin and My Secret Life.[134]\n\u201c There exists an international citizenry that has its rights, and has its duties, and that is committed to rise up against every abuse of power, no matter who the author, no matter who the victims. After all, we are all ruled, and as such, we are in solidarity. \u201d\nFoucault remained a political activist, focusing on protesting government abuses of human rights around the world. He was a key player in the 1975 protests against the Spanish government to execute 11 militants sentenced to death without fair trial. It was his idea to travel to Madrid with 6 others to give their press conference there; they were subsequently arrested and deported back to Paris.[136] In 1977, he protested the extradition of Klaus Croissant to West Germany, and his rib was fractured during clashes with riot police.[137] In July that year, he organised an assembly of Eastern Bloc dissidents to mark the visit of Soviet Premier Leonid Brezhnev to Paris.[138] In 1979, he campaigned for Vietnamese political dissidents to be granted asylum in France.[139]\nIn 1977, Italian newspaper Corriere della sera asked Foucault to write a column for them. In doing so, in 1978 he travelled to Tehran in Iran, days after the Black Friday massacre. Documenting the developing Iranian Revolution, he met with opposition leaders such as Mohammad Kazem Shariatmadari and Mehdi Bazargan, and discovered the popular support for Islamism.[140] Returning to France, he was one of the journalists who visited the Ayatollah Khomeini, before visiting Tehran. His articles expressed awe of Khomeini's Islamist movement, for which he was widely criticised in the French press, including by Iranian expatriates. Foucault's response was that Islamism was to become a major political force in the region, and that the West must treat it with respect rather than hostility.[141] In April 1978, Foucault traveled to Japan, where he studied Zen Buddhism under Omori Sogen at the Seionji temple in Uenohara.[119]\nGraves of Michel Foucault, his mother (right) and his father (left) in Vendeuvre-du-Poitou\nFinal years: 1980\u201384[]\nAlthough remaining critical of power relations, Foucault expressed cautious support for the Socialist Party government of Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand following its electoral victory in 1981.[142] But his support soon deteriorated when that party refused to condemn the Polish government's crackdown on the 1982 demonstrations in Poland orchestrated by the Solidarity trade union. He and sociologist Pierre Bourdieu authored a document condemning Mitterrand's inaction that was published in Lib\u00e9ration, and they also took part in large public protests on the issue.[143] Foucault continued to support Solidarity, and with his friend Simone Signoret traveled to Poland as part of a M\u00e9decins du Monde expion, taking time out to visit the Auschwitz concentration camp.[144] He continued his academic research, and in June 1984 Gallimard published the second and third volumes of Histoire de la sexualit\u00e9. Volume two, L'Usage des plaisirs, dealt with the \"techniques of self\" prescribed by ancient Greek pagan morality in relation to sexual ethics, while volume three, Le Souci de soi, explored the same theme in the Greek and Latin texts of the first two centuries CE. A fourth volume, Les Aveux de la chair, was to examine sexuality in early Christianity, but it was not finished.[145]\nIn October 1980, Foucault became a visiting professor at the University of California, Berkeley, giving the Howison Lectures on \"Truth and Subjectivity\", while in November he lectured at the Humanities Institute at New York University. His growing popularity in American intellectual circles was noted by Time magazine, while Foucault went on to lecture at UCLA in 1981, the University of Vermont in 1982, and Berkeley again in 1983, where his lectures drew huge crowds.[146] Foucault spent many evenings in the San Francisco gay scene, frequenting sado-masochistic bathhouses, engaging in unprotected sex. He would praise sado-masochistic activity in interviews with the gay press, describing it as \"the real creation of new possibilities of pleasure, which people had no idea about previously.\"[147] Foucault contracted HIV and eventually developed AIDS. Little was known of the virus at the time; the first cases had only been identified in 1980.[148] In summer 1983, he developed a persistent dry cough, which concerned friends in Paris, but Foucault insisted it was just a pulmonary infection.[149] Only when hospitalized was Foucault correctly diagnosed; treated with antibiotics, he delivered a final set of lectures at the Coll\u00e8ge de France.[150] Foucault entered Paris' H\u00f4pital de la Salp\u00eatri\u00e8re\u2014the same institution that he had studied in Madness and Civilisation\u2014on 10 June 1984, with neurological symptoms complicated by septicemia. He died in the hospital on 25 June.[151]\nOn 26 June, Lib\u00e9ration announced his death, mentioning the rumour that it had been brought on by AIDS. The following day, Le Monde issued a medical bulletin cleared by his family which made no reference to HIV/AIDS.[152] On 29 June, Foucault's la lev\u00e9e du corps ceremony was held, in which the coffin was carried from the hospital morgue. Hundreds attended, including activists and academic friends, while Gilles Deleuze gave a speech using excerpts from The History of Sexuality.[153] His body was then buried at Vendeuvre in a small ceremony.[154] Soon after his death, Foucault's partner Daniel Defert founded the first national HIV/AIDS organisation in France, AIDES; a pun on the French language word for \"help\" (aide) and the English language acronym for the disease.[155] On the second anniversary of Foucault's death, Defert publicly revealed that Foucault's death was AIDS-related in The Advocate.[156]\nFoucault's first biographer, Didier Eribon, described the philosopher as \"a complex, many-sided character\", and that \"under one mask there is always another\".[157] He also noted that he exhibited an \"enormous capacity for work\".[158] At the ENS, Foucault's classmates unanimously summed him up as a figure who was both \"disconcerting and strange\" and \"a passionate worker\".[159] As he aged, his personality changed: Eribon noted that while he was a \"tortured adolescent\", post-1960, he had become \"a radiant man, relaxed and cheerful\", even being described by those who worked with him as a dandy.[160] He noted that in 1969, Foucault embodied the idea of \"the militant intellectual\".[161]\nFoucault was an atheist.[162][163] He was also a fan of classical music, particularly enjoying the work of Johann Sebastian Bach and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart,[164] and became known for wearing turtleneck jumpers.[165] After his death, Foucault's friend Georges Dum\u00e9zil described him as having possessed \"a profound kindness and goodness\", also exhibiting an \"intelligence [that] literally knew no bounds.\"[166] His life-partner Daniel Defert inherited his estate.[citation needed]\nThought[]\nFurther information: Michel Foucault bibliography\nFoucault's colleague Pierre Bourdieu summarised the philosopher's thought as \"a long exploration of transgression, of going beyond social limits, always inseparably linked to knowledge and power.\"[167]\n\u201c The theme that underlies all Foucault's work is the relationship between power and knowledge, and how the former is used to control and define the latter. What authorities claim as 'scientific knowledge' are really just means of social control. Foucault shows how, for instance, in the eighteenth century 'madness' was used to categorise and stigmatise not just the mentally ill but the poor, the sick, the homeless and, indeed, anyone whose expressions of individuality were unwelcome. \u201d\n\u2014 Philip Stokes, Philosophy: 100 Essential Thinkers (2004)[168]\nPhilosopher Philip Stokes of the University of Reading noted that overall, Foucault's work was \"dark and pessimistic\", but that it did leave some room for optimism, in that it illustrates how the discipline of philosophy can be used to highlight areas of domination. In doing so, Stokes claimed, we are able to understand how we are being dominated and strive to build social structures that minimise this risk of domination.[168] In all of this development there had to be close attention to detail; it is the detail which eventually individualises people.[169]\nLater in his life, Foucault explained that his work was less about analysing power as a phenomenon than about trying to characterise the different ways in which contemporary society has expressed the use of power to \"objectivise subjects.\" These have taken three broad forms: one involving scientific authority to classify and 'order' knowledge about human populations. A second, and related form, has been to categorise and 'normalise' human subjects (by identifying madness, illness, physical features, and so on). The third relates to the manner in which the impulse to fashion sexual identities and train one's own body to engage in routines and practices ends up reproducing certain patterns within a given society.[170]\nPolitically, Foucault was a leftist through much of his life, but his particular stance within the left often changed. Towards the end, as he suffered from AIDS, he adopted classical liberalism and had a strong interest in Stoic philosophy.[171] In the early 1950s he had been a member of the French Communist Party, although he never adopted an orthodox Marxist viewpoint and left the party after three years, disgusted by the prejudice against Jews and homosexuals within its ranks. After spending some time working in Poland, then governed as a socialist state by the Polish United Workers' Party, he became further disillusioned with communist ideology. As a result, in the early 1960s he was considered to be \"violently anticommunist\" by some of his detractors,[172] even though he was involved in leftist campaigns along with most of his students and colleagues.[citation needed]\nIn addition to his philosophical work, Foucault also wrote on literature. Death and the Labyrinth: The World of Raymond Roussel was published in 1963, and translated into English in 1986. It is Foucault's only book-length work on literature. Foucault described it as \"by far the book I wrote most easily, with the greatest pleasure, and most rapidly.\"[173] Foucault explores theory, criticism, and psychology with reference to the texts of Raymond Roussel, one of the first notable experimental writers.\nFoucault's discussions on power and discourse have inspired many critical theorists, who believe that Foucault's analysis of power structures could aid the struggle against inequality. They claim that through discourse analysis, hierarchies may be uncovered and questioned by way of analyzing the corresponding fields of knowledge through which they are legitimated. This is one of the ways that Foucault's work is linked to critical theory.[174] His discussion on power and discourse also influences the postcolonial critique in explaining the discursive formation of colonialism [175] Foucault's work has been compared to that of Erving Goffman by the sociologist Michael Hviid Jacobsen and Soren Kristiansen, who list Goffman as an influence on Foucault.[176]\nIn 2007, Foucault was listed as the most cited scholar in the humanities by the ISI Web of Science among a large quantity of French philosophers, the compilation's author commenting that \"What this says of modern scholarship is for the reader to decide\u2014and it is imagined that judgments will vary from admiration to despair, depending on one's view\".[177]\nCritiques and engagements[]\nCrypto-normativity[]\nMain article: Foucault\u2013Habermas debate\nA prominent critique of Foucault's thought concerns his refusal to propose positive solutions to the social and political issues that he critiques. Since no human relation is devoid of power, freedom becomes elusive\u2014even as an ideal. This stance which critiques normativity as socially constructed and contingent, but which relies on an implicit norm in order to mount the critique led philosopher J\u00fcrgen Habermas to describe Foucault's thinking as \"crypto-normativist\", covertly reliant on the very Enlightenment principles he attempts to argue against.[178] A similar critique has been advanced by Diana Taylor, and by Nancy Fraser who argues that \"Foucault's critique encompasses traditional moral systems, he denies himself recourse to concepts such as 'freedom' and 'justice', and therefore lacks the ability to generate positive alternatives.\"[179] Likewise, scholar Nancy Pearcey points out Foucault's paradoxical stance: \"[when someone] states that it is impossible to attain objectivity, is that an objective statement? The theory undercuts its own claims.\"[180]\nGenealogy as historical method[]\nThe philosopher Richard Rorty has argued that Foucault's 'archaeology of knowledge' is fundamentally negative, and thus fails to adequately establish any 'new' theory of knowledge per se. Rather, Foucault simply provides a few valuable maxims regarding the reading of history. Rorty writes:\nAs far as I can see, all he has to offer are brilliant redescriptions of the past, supplemented by helpful hints on how to avoid being trapped by old historiographical assumptions. These hints consist largely of saying: \"do not look for progress or meaning in history; do not see the history of a given activity, of any segment of culture, as the development of rationality or of freedom; do not use any philosophical vocabulary to characterize the essence of such activity or the goal it serves; do not assume that the way this activity is presently conducted gives any clue to the goals it served in the past.[181]\nFoucault has frequently been criticized by historians for what they consider to be a lack of rigor in his analyses.[182] For example, Hans-Ulrich Wehler harshly criticized Foucault in 1998.[183] Wehler regards Foucault as a bad philosopher who wrongfully received a good response by the humanities and by social sciences. According to Wehler, Foucault's works are not only insufficient in their empiric historical aspects, but also often contradictory and lacking in clarity. For example, Foucault's concept of power is \"desperatingly undifferentiated\", and Foucault's thesis of a \"disciplinary society\" is, according to Wehler, only possible because Foucault does not properly differentiate between authority, force, power, violence and legitimacy.[184] In addition, his thesis is based on a one-sided choice of sources (prisons and psychiatric institutions) and neglects other types of organizations as e.g. factories. Also, Wehler criticizes Foucault's \"francocentrism\" because he did not take into consideration major German-speaking theorists of social sciences like Max Weber and Norbert Elias. In all, Wehler concludes that Foucault is \"because of the endless series of flaws in his so-called empirical studies ... an intellectually dishonest, empirically absolutely unreliable, crypto-normativist seducer of Postmodernism\".[185]\nFeminist critiques[]\nThough American feminists have built on Foucault's critiques of the historical construction of gender roles and sexuality, some feminists note the limitations of the masculinist subjectivity and ethical orientation that he describes.[186][page needed]\nSexuality[]\nThe philosopher Roger Scruton argues in Sexual Desire (1986) that Foucault was incorrect to claim, in The History of Sexuality, that sexual morality is culturally relative. He criticizes Foucault for assuming that there could be societies in which a \"problematisation\" of the sexual did not occur, concluding that, \"No history of thought could show the 'problematisation' of sexual experience to be peculiar to certain specific social formations: it is characteristic of personal experience generally, and therefore of every genuine social order.\"[187]\nFoucault's approach to sexuality, which he sees as socially constructed, has become influential in queer theory. Foucault's resistance to identity politics, and his rejection of the psychoanalytic concept of object choice, stands at odds with some theories of queer identity.[186]\nSocial constructionism and human nature[]\nFoucault is sometimes criticized for his prominent formulation of principles of social constructionism, which some see as an affront to the concept of truth. In Foucault's 1971 televised debate with Noam Chomsky, Foucault argued against the possibility of any fixed human nature, as posited by Chomsky's concept of innate human faculties. Chomsky argued that concepts of justice were rooted in human reason, whereas Foucault rejected the universal basis for a concept of justice.[188] Following the debate, Chomsky was stricken with Foucault's total rejection of the possibility of a universal morality, stating \"He struck me as completely amoral, I'd never met anyone who was so totally amoral [...] I mean, I liked him personally, it's just that I couldn't make sense of him. It's as if he was from a different species, or something.\"[189]\nEducation and authority[]\nPeruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa, while acknowledging that Foucault contributed to give a right of citizenship in cultural life to certain marginal and eccentric experiences (of sexuality, of cultural repression, of madness), asserts that his radical critique of authority was detrimental to education.[190] Foucault's notion of observation,[191] and its power to change individuals' behavior as a subtle type of authority, influences many fields of education.[192]\nPostsexualism\n^ a b c d Alan D.

The amount of heat received at a given point on the earth's surface depends chiefly on the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earth at that point and on the daily duration there of exposure to the sun's rays; the more vertical the rays and the longer the exposure, the more heat will be received. Seasonal change varies greatly with latitude. Near the equator there is little change; in high latitudes spring and autumn are very short. In the temperate zones there are four well-defined seasons; in the north temperate zone, spring begins about Mar. 21, the vernal equinoxequinox\n, either of two points on the celestial sphere where the ecliptic and the celestial equator intersect.

Click the link for more information. ; autumn, about Sept. 23, the fall equinox; and winter, about Dec. 22, the winter solstice. However, the weather lags somewhat behind the seasons because, at the time of maximum sunlight (summer solstice for the Northern Hemisphere) the ground is still too cold to radiate as much heat as it receives, so average temperatures usually continue to rise for several weeks until a balance is reached between reception and radiation of heat. In low latitudes and in certain other areas (e.g., India) where oceans and winds are the chief factors governing seasonal changes, the terms \"wet season\" and \"dry season\" are used. The seasons play an important part in mythology and folklore; many holidays are connected with the changes of season.\nAnnual change in seasons\nThe four approximately equal divisions of the year, usually taken as lasting from equinox to solstice \u2013 spring and autumn \u2013 or from solstice to equinox \u2013 summer and winter. The seasons, which are more noticeable away from the equator, result from the inclination (23\u00b0.45) of the Earth's axis to the perpendicular to the Earth's orbital plane so that the Sun spends half the year north and the remaining year south of the celestial equator (see illustration). The varying distance of the Earth from the Sun has a minor effect on the seasons. Mars, with an axial tilt of 24\u00b0, also has seasons.\n(spring, summer, autumn, and winter), the long-established division of the year into periods according to the apparent motion of the sun through the heavens and seasonal changes in nature. The alternation of seasons takes place as a result of the fact that the earth\u2019s axis of rotation is inclined toward the plane of the earth\u2019s orbit at an angle of 66\u00b033\u2019. As the earth moves around the sun, the axis almost always shifts parallel to itself; therefore, during the year its northern and southern ends\u2014that is, the corresponding terrestrial poles\u2014 are alternately inclined toward the sun. Therefore the sun heats and illuminates more strongly first the northern and then the southern hemispheres of the earth, as a result of which summer in the northern hemisphere coincides with winter in the southern, and vice versa.\nIn astronomy the beginning of each season is determined by the apparent motion of the sun about the celestial sphere. In the northern hemisphere the instant when the center of the sun, moving along the ecliptic and passing from the southern hemisphere of the sky into the northern (on March 20 or 21), intersects the celestial equator at the vernal equinox is considered the beginning of spring. At that time, except in the polar regions, day and night are of equal length over the entire earth, and the sun passes its zenith at midday, begins to rise at the earth\u2019s north pole, and disappears below the horizon at the south pole. At the moment of the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere (June 21 or 22), the sun passes through the northernmost point of the ecliptic (the summer solstice). At this time the longest day occurs in the northern hemisphere and the longest night in the southern. At midday on this day, the sun passes through the zenith in the northern tropics; at midnight it touches the horizon in the arctic circle, within which the sun does not set, and it does not rise within the antarctic circle. At the moment when autumn begins in the northern hemisphere (September 23), the sun again crosses the equator (at the autumnal equinox), passing from the northern hemisphere into the southern. Over the entire earth day is again equal in length to night, and at the equator the sun passes through the zenith at midday, disappears below the horizon at the north pole, and appears at the south pole. Winter begins in the northern hemisphere (December 21 or 22) when the sun passes through the southernmost point of the ecliptic (the winter solstice). At this time the shortest day occurs in the northern hemisphere, the shortest night in the southern. On this day the sun passes through the zenith at midday in the southern tropics, does not rise at all in the arctic circle, does not set in the antarctic circle, and only touches the horizon at midnight; it is dark 24 hours a day within the arctic circle and light 24 hours a day within the antarctic circle.\nThe ellipticity of the earth\u2019s orbit causes irregularity of the earth\u2019s motion around the sun; therefore the seasons are not of identical length. The earth is closest to the sun in the beginning of January, when it passes through perihelion and its motion is most rapid. Therefore, winter in the northern hemisphere is the shortest season, and summer is the longest. At present, spring in the northern hemisphere lasts about 92.8 days, summer 93.6, autumn 89.8, and winter 89.0, for a total of 365.2422 days\u2014the tropical year. The difference between the minimum and maximum distances of the earth from the sun during its motion in orbit is relatively small, as a result of which the change in the amount of solar heat received by the earth has virtually no effect on the change of seasons.\nBakulin, P. I., E. V. Kononovich, and V. I. Moroz. Kurs obshchei astronomii. Moscow, 1966.\nA. A. MIKHAILOV\nPhenological features. The annual changes of climatic indicators and the seasonal phenomena in nature are associated with the apparent annual motion of the sun. In the middle latitudes of the northern hemisphere there are four seasons. Various criteria are applied to determine the change of sea-sons. According to one criterion, winter is generally limited to the dates between which the mean daily air temperature remains lower than 0\u00b0 C. The date on which the mean daily temperature rises and remains above 0\u00b0 C is taken as the beginning of spring. In regions where the snow cover reaches a depth of 40-50 cm by the end of winter (the Northwest, the central European USSR, and the Byelorussian SSR), it thaws two to four days after the onset of a daily mean temperature of 0\u00b0 C; in the northern and northeastern sections of the European USSR, where the snow cover is deeper than 60 cm, it disappears ten to 15 days after the temperature rises above 0\u00b0 C. In the southern regions of Siberia, as a result of exposure to direct solar radiation and positive temperatures during the midday hours, the snow cover (25-30 cm) melts ten to 12 days before the temperature exceeds 0\u00b0 C. Such phenomena as the pollination of the alder, the arrival of starlings, and the beginning of ice drift on small rivers are associated with the beginning of spring. The day beginning with which the mean daily temperature reaches 70 percent of the temperature of the warmest month of the year is considered the beginning of phenological summer. Under different soil and geographical conditions the beginning of summer is characterized by different phenological phenomena\u2014from the point at which apple trees begin to blossom to the flowering of the lilac or European mountain ash; sometimes the beginning of summer is associated with the flowering of the bird cherry. Summer accounts for 60 percent of the duration of the growing season\u2014that is, the period having a mean daily temperature of over 5\u00b0 C. During the summer the sum of positive air temperatures accumulates, causing a mean annual temperature of over 0\u00b0 C. In a climatic sense summer occurs only in places where winter exists\u2014that is, where the mean temperature for at least one month of the year is less than 0\u00b0 C. The day by which 60 percent of the growing season has passed, counting from the beginning of summer, is taken as the beginning of fall (see Table 1).\nAn example for Moscow is as follows: mean July temperature\nTable 1.

For example, the end of winter, after the arrival of the rooks, is called the prespring period. Spring is divided into three periods\u2014from the beginning of intensive snow thawing, from the start of ice drift, and from the time when cherry trees acquire foliage. Summer is divided into two periods\u2014from the flowering of the lilac and from the flowering of the littleleaf linden (or sometimes into three periods\u2014from the blossoming of the bird cherry, from the flowering of the guelder rose, and from the flowering of the heather). Autumn is divided into three periods\u2014from the flight of the swifts, from the time when the spring coloring of the leaves of a majority of trees is completely replaced by fall coloring, and from the conclusion of extensive leaf fall in a majority of trees. There are also other indicators of the start of subseasons.\nThe northern boundary of the four-season belt in Europe coincides with the southern boundary of the tundra; in Asia it passes more to the south\u2014through Tobol\u2019sk and Tomsk and to the north of Blagoveshchensk. It intersects Sakhalin Is-land along the 50th parallel and the Kamchatka Peninsula along the 56th and 57th parallels. In America it passes to the north of the Alaskan peninsula, to the south of James Bay, and along the Labrador peninsula and the southern tip of Greenland. To the north of this boundary there is no true summer. Here there are three seasons\u2014winter, a prolonged spring, and fall. In this three-season zone the day by which 60 percent of the growing has passed since the date of passage of the mean daily temperature above 5\u00b0 C, which is taken as the start of the growing season, is also taken as the start of fall. In the tundra the start of autumn coincides with the flight of the cranes.\nIn tropical and equatorial countries the temperature has no clearly expressed annual progression. The growing season period lasts year-round. Here there are dry and moist periods. The latter are characterized by monsoon rains, whose zone shifts together with the tropical front, which fol-lows the sun\u2019s motion between the tropics. In the equatorial zone there are four seasons: two moist seasons, which set in about the time of the equinoxes; and two dry seasons, which come about the time of the solstices. In tropical countries the moist periods are more prolonged and occur in months close to the solstices. The dry periods are shorter.\nKaigorodov, A.

        "raw_content": "BASF-YPC president: Life in Nanjing is a wonderful journey\n(Photo by Yang Yizhe)\nIt was a drizzly morning on Dec. 3, when Uwe Kirchgaessner, president of BASF-YPC Company Limited, enjoys the beautiful landscape of Nanjing outside of his car window.\nThe No. 1 word for Nanjing: warm\nWith a Chinese name, Kang Zhijie, he first came to China in the spring of 1996, when he was assigned by BASF for some feasibility studies in Nanjing to establish a joint venture.\nA trip from Germany to Nanjing needed transition in either Beijing or Hong Kong at that time, a quite tiring challenge for Kirchgaessner. Now, transportation has never been so easy. Nanjing opened a direct flight to Frankfurt in April 2008. Inside the city, Nanjing also opened the second, third, and fourth bridges across the Yangtze River in 2001, 2005 and 2012 respectively.\u201cThe development of this city is just amazing. In 1996 there was only one bridge over Yangtze River where we got stuck every morning on the way for meetings. Today, there are four bridges, two tunnels as well as three subway lines going across the Yangtze River. \u201d\nWhen introducing Nanjing to friends, Kirchgaessner prefers the word \u201cwarm\u201d as a recognition of the warmth and hospitality of Nanjing people as well as his sweet memory. when a snow storm hit Nanjing in late January this year, nearly 70,000 soldiers and civilians took to the streets to clear the snow overnight.\n\"I saw photos on the Internet and was really moved by their hard efforts against the chill.\" He said he often thinks about that heartwarming experience on his way to work.\nBright prospect for joint venture\nKirchgaessner has travelled a lot between Germany and Jiangsu for many years, and he has some deep feelings about the Chinese coastal province. In 2015, he was appointed as the new president of BASF-YPC Company Limited, located in Luhe District of Nanjing. With a total investment of $5.2 billion, the 50:50 joint venture between BASF and SINOPEC started commercial operation in June 2005.\nIn the 1990s, China accelerated the pace of reform and opening up. Joint ventures boomed everywhere in the country, and local companies were eager to be in line with international standards. BASF seized the opportunity to cooperate with SINOPEC in constructing its \u201cVerbund\u201d Petrochemical Site. As joint venture is a strong form of business partnership, today the company is regarded as a role model of successful Sino-German cooperation. BASF-YPC sells about 3 million tons of high-quality chemicals and polymers per year to cater to the rapidly growing Chinese market, covering almost every aspect of people's lives.\nKirchgaessner said that in recent years, China has developed into the most important chemical market in the world and will become even more important in the future.\nGoing green - Bike makes a comeback\nHe also said Nanjing has made tremendous progress. In 1996, almost every family in the country had a black bicycle with 28-inch wheels. The bell on the handlebar sounded loud and clear and the size was usually bigger than what he saw in Germany. When he returned to Germany, he went to a Nanjing store and bought a bell as a gift.\nGradually, he found more and more private cars on the road, less and less bicycles in urban area. But in recent years, those easy-to-use, bright-colored public bicycles have been favored by young people. People in Nanjing are changing their transportation means. The use of subways and buses are on the rise amid the public\u2019s better awareness of environmental protection. It is reported that Nanjing has the largest amount of public bicycles in China, with the two-wheeled vehicle service available at the main urban areas.\nAfter living in Nanjing for three years, Kirchgaessner has adjusted so well to the city that he said \u201cthe days in Nanjing are a wonderful journey of my life.\u201d\n\u00b7Canadian lawmaker's call for establishing Nanjing Massacre Commemorative Day\n\u00b7Japanese man's love for Chinese city Nanjing\n\u00b7Heavy fog delays flights at Nanjing Lukou International Airport\n\u00b7A Nanjing village steps out of poverty\n\u00b72018 Nanjing Forum opens in east China",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb History \u00bb 1946-1987: Postwar and Civil Rights Era \u00bb Rosa Parks\nRosa Parks Fingerprinted\nRosa Parks Statue Dedication\nRosa Parks Collection, Library of Congress\nRosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development\nFrye Gaillard, University of South Alabama\nRosa Parks (1913-2005) is one of the most enduring symbols of the tumultuous civil rights era of the mid-twentieth century. Her 1955 arrest in Montgomery for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white man sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott and set in motion a chain of events that resulted in ground-breaking civil rights legislation and helped to bring Martin Luther King Jr. to the forefront as the movement's leader. Parks continued to work for civil rights causes during her entire life and was awarded the nation's highest honors for her role in the movement.\nRosa Louise McCauley was born in Tuskegee on February 4, 1913, to James McCauley, a carpenter and stonemason, and Leona Edwards, a teacher. She spent much of her childhood living with her maternal grandparents in Pine Level, a small town in southeast Montgomery County. There, she began her education in an all-black school with a single teacher serving all 50 students. In 1924, 11-year-old McCauley enrolled in the Montgomery Industrial School for Girls, which offered a vocational curriculum of cooking, sewing, and housekeeping under the instruction of northern whites. Family illnesses forced McCauley to quit school at age 16, when she began cleaning houses for white people and taking in sewing. At age 20, she married Raymond Parks, a barber from Wedowee, Randolph County. In the early 1940s, Parks became active in the Montgomery chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), serving as its secretary and teaching young people about their rights and responsibilities as U.S. citizens. Through her work as a seamstress, Parks came into contact with white civil rights activists Clifford and Virginia Durr, and in the summer of 1955 they sponsored a week-long stay for her at the Highlander Folk School in Tennessee. The school had been founded in 1932 as a training facility for social activists, and there Parks learned effective strategies to protest segregation, including picketing methods and guidelines for establishing citizenship training schools to help people pass voting tests.\nRosa Parks Arrested\nUpon her return, Parks redoubled her commitment to the civil rights community and its effort to overthrow the Jim Crow laws that regulated virtually every aspect of African Americans' lives. On December 1, 1955, Parks' convictions were put to the test. She boarded a crowded bus after work and took a seat. When a white man got on and was unable to find a seat in the whites-only section, the bus driver demanded that Parks and three other black passengers give up their seats. (All black passengers were required by law to leave the row, even if only one white passenger needed a seat.) Parks decided the time had come to take her stand; she refused to get up, and at the driver's request two Montgomery police officers escorted her off the bus and to city hall to be arrested. Friends Clifford Durr and E. D. Nixon, former president of the Montgomery NAACP, bailed her out, and attorney and activist Fred Gray represented her in the subsequent trial, which resulted in a $10 fine.\nAlthough it was not her intention, Parks's decision to violate the segregation ordinance triggered a year-long boycott of Montgomery's buses by the city's black population and prompted a challenge of the ordinance's constitutionality in federal court. In December 1956, after the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed a district court's ruling against segregation in Browder v. Gayle, Parks took a symbolic first ride near the front of a city bus. The successful boycott served as an inspiration to black communities throughout the nation and established Rosa Parks as the \"mother of the civil rights movement.\"\nSeeking a reprieve from the death threats and other pressures brought about by Rosa's fame, the Parkses moved to Detroit in 1957 to be near her brother. Parks resumed work as a seamstress but remained an active spokesperson for the civil rights community. She was invited to attend the July 2 ceremony at which Pres. Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, banning segregation in public accommodations. The following year, she returned to Alabama to help lead the final leg of the Selma-to-Montgomery march in pursuit of voting rights in the South. In 1965, Parks joined the staff of U.S. Representative John Conyers, one of the leading African American members of Congress, and managed his Detroit office until her retirement in 1988. In 1987, Parks co-founded, with friend Elaine Eason Steele, the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self-Development, in honor of Raymond Parks, who died in 1977. The organization continues to promote education and life-skills training for young minority people.\nVirginia Durr and Rosa Parks\nParks received many awards and honors through the years. In 1996, Pres. Bill Clinton presented her with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. \"When she sat down on the bus,\" the president declared, \"she stood up for the ideals of equality and justice and demanded that the rest of us do the same.\" In 1999, she received the Congressional Gold Medal, and in 2001, despite her frail health, she journeyed to Montgomery for the opening of the Rosa Parks Library and Museum. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the civil rights organization founded by King and other civil rights figures, presents the Rosa Parks Freedom Award each year in her honor.\nRosa Parks Stamp\nDuring her last years, Parks endured her share of controversy and pain. In 1994, she was robbed and beaten in her home by an African American intruder, who escaped with a small amount of cash. She later recalled asking her assailant if he knew who she was. The man admitted that he knew but did not care. In 1999, her lawyers sued the hip hop group OutKast for using her name in their song \"Rosa Parks.\" The suit, which was settled out of court in 2005, sparked concern among some of her relatives that her name was being exploited by her legal team. As her health declined, Parks became more reclusive. Rosa Parks died in Detroit on October 25, 2005. In 2018, the state of Alabama declared December 1 \"Rosa Parks Day\" to commemorate her accomplishments.\nBrinkley, Douglas. Rosa Parks. New York: Viking, 2000.\nGray, Fred D.

        "raw_content": "EARLY A YEAR PASSED. Over the course of that year\u2019s Saturday visits to the Glynns, a year of drawing lessons and contest entries, I got to know Andy and Rosetta. I learned quite a lot about their remarkable lives, from them, in their own words, and what I learned directly from them taught me how much of what I had thought I knew about them\u2014that is, what I\u2019d learned from my parents and their friends\u2014was wrong.\nTo be completely accurate, I learned about the Glynns in Rosetta\u2019s words. Since I was as curious a fellow then as I am now, I was always asking her questions. I would ask her about anything that intrigued me, and she would answer me, in her fashion. By that I mean that she would always tell me something in response to my questions, and what she told me was always in some way related to what I wanted to know, but I didn\u2019t always realize at the time what that relationship was. I would ask her the simplest sort of question, and she would use it as a springboard for a leap into the past. It might be something about one of the contests. I might ask: \u201cDo you think I should say anything about the fact that prunes have pits?\u201d or \u201cIf you can pack as much as they claim into these suitcases, won\u2019t they be pretty heavy?\u201d\n\u201cAh, prunes!\u201d she would say, and drop her pencil on the table as if something about prunes made her wistful and dreamy, or she would throw her hands in the air and shout, \u201cSuitcases! Luggage! Baggage!\u201d She would sit back and look upward, and she would begin to talk, and after a few words I would understand that she had heard my question as \u201cTell me about the first time you fell in love\u201d or \u201cPlease describe the methods of farming employed in your village when you were a girl.\u201d\nOften, she would call for a glass of slivovitz, and I soon learned where it was kept. I would get her tiny tumbler, set it in front of her, fill it, and set the bottle beside the glass, without comment. While Rosetta talked, she sipped. She refilled her glass absentmindedly, and she would go on and on about the dark eyes and reedy voice of her first love or the many aspects of spreading manure that required the grudging labor of a young girl, and then, at a point that I rarely saw coming, the slivovitz would take its toll, her words would begin to run together, and she would sigh and return to the prunes or the luggage or whatever had prompted my question, and tell me that \u201cevery happy moment has its pit\u201d or that \u201cwhen you get to be my age all your suitcases are heavy,\u201d and the story would be at an end.\n(As a boy, I tried, for a while, perhaps a year or so before the time when I was hanging around with the Glynns, to get interested in photography, but my interest had to contend with and was eventually overcome by a repulsion induced by a lingering association of photography with sickness, and, specifically, with vomit. That association was brought on by the fact that a neighbor\u2014or my mother, or some school chum\u2014had brought me, as a diversion while I was sick with the flu, a stack of library books that included a mildewed copy of a book on photography. When I opened the book it exhaled an odor like the stink that drifts from dark alleys where garbage has been left to ripen. Manfully, I made the effort to read it, or at least leaf through it, since it was a gift and represented affection and concern. I forced myself to overcome my revulsion. I read the book and, to show how grateful I was for the thought behind the gift, labored for a while to become a photographic adept. In the effort, I acquired some basic equipment, turned a portion of my parents\u2019 cellar into a darkroom, and made enough unsatisfactory prints to learn that I would never be much of a photographer. However, along the way, I wrung from the hobby its best metaphoric experiences: the processes of development and printing. After I had developed some understanding of the negative of an image as the inverse of experience and of the positive print of an image gradually appearing on a blank sheet of photographic paper as the revelation of the detailed if often poorly focused truth in what may at first seem a blank and nearly meaningless experience, emerging slowly, as if reluctantly, as if it were being teased, forced, or seduced into revealing itself by the skill, will, or art of the photographer, I felt that I had sufficiently acknowledged the generosity of the gift and sufficiently justified my investment to be free to abandon the effort, and so I did, to the delight of my mother, who found it smelly.) Like a photographic print in a developing bath in a darkroom, my understanding of some of the things Rosetta told me developed slowly as the seasons came around again to early fall. Two impressions stood out from all the others: that Rosetta seemed to have been waiting for me, her proper audience, and that life for a great many people whom I had never met had been far darker, more disappointing, and frightening than it had been for the people who were forever telling me about the night the Nevsky mansion burned.\nI should admit, I suppose, in the interest of frankness, that I never did very well at those contests. I couldn\u2019t seem to come up with much of anything that provided the shock of the new, and my expressions of hope never really went beyond the hope that I would win. To my mind, the closest I came was my entry for Troubled Titan Peas: \u201cTroubled Titan Brand Baby Peas are my first choice for stocking a family fallout shelter because they\u2019re ready in a jiffy, they taste much better than lima beans, and they can be fun to play with if you don\u2019t have any other way to pass the time, which could be a problem in a fallout shelter.\u201d\nThis entry became something of a joke in the Glynn household. Margot and Martha collapsed in giggles as soon as they heard it, and Andy said, almost at once, \u201cThat\u2019s just what I\u2019ve been looking for! I\u2019ve never had a good name for it before! I\u2019ve needed a kind of general-purpose phrase for those time-consuming little chores that must be repeated and repeated throughout a person\u2019s life without ever being finished! Like cleaning rollers! Buying cigarettes! Cleaning leaves from the gutters! Changing the damned oil in the damned car! We\u2019re always doing that\u2014stuff\u2014and then one day we discover that we\u2019ve wasted quite a lot of the little time we have in this puppet play on these useless and forgettable pastimes. Thank you, Peter! Thank you!\u201d\nFrom then on, whenever he had to go to the village to get cigarettes or had to clean the leaves from the gutters or had to change the oil in the car, he would say, \u201cI\u2019m going to play with my peas.\u201d\nFor Rosetta, my entry in the Troubled Titan Peas contest represented something else. \u201cThis is quite a document!\u201d she said. \u201cI think it says much more than you know. I think it is a kind of testimony. It bears witness to your honesty, your total unwillingness to compromise what you actually think by giving the contest organizers what they want.\u201d She paused and smiled and said, \u201cI\u2019m proud of you.\u201d After a moment, she added, \u201cOf course, you haven\u2019t got a chance.\u201d\nIf I never succeeded in giving the contest organizers what they wanted, I did succeed in giving Andy and Rosetta what they wanted. Over the course of the year, as I got to know them, they got to know me, and finally, after a year of visits, a year of lessons from Andy, a year of collaboration with Rosetta, they came to trust me enough to allow me to walk their daughters to the movies.\nAT HOME WITH THE GLYNNS | THE REST OF THE STORY | CONTENTS PAGE\nA splendidly vivid exploration of \u201csexual pleasure amplified and augmented by the thrill of adventure\u201d",

What forms it can take, what causes it and the intimate stories of those it affects. For the next few minutes, we're going to focus in on another part of the addiction story - recovery. Every year, nearly two million Americans seek treatment for addiction to drugs or alcohol on an in- or outpatient basis. The most famous inpatient rehab facility is the one named after former first lady Betty Ford. Here she is speaking to CBS News about her addiction to alcohol and painkillers.\nBETTY FORD: My family saw the problem. And they got professional help to come in and help them do what we refer to as an intervention.\nMARTIN: The Betty Ford Center opened in 1982. Troubled celebrities have flocked there, along with thousands of others looking for an intensive rehabilitation that takes them out of their regular lives.\n(SOUNDBITE OF COMMERCIAL)\nUNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #1: Our beautiful 20-acre campus is located in Rancho Mirage, California, where we offer security...\nMARTIN: Just last month, Betty Ford merged with Hazelden Treatment Centers to create the largest nonprofit treatment organization in the country. But there's a growing chorus of medical professionals who say inpatient rehab centers provide only a temporary fix that can sometimes evaporate when patients go back into the real world.\nTOM MCCLELLAN: We used to understand addiction - 40 years ago - as a bad habit, low character development, poor impulse control.\nMARTIN: This is Tom McClellan. He's the CEO and co-founder of the Treatment Research Institute in Philadelphia. And he says inpatient rehab came out of this belief that to get better, you just had to be a better person.\nMCCLELLAN: And so what was envisioned was a program that, first, tore the patient down, stripped the patient of his bad habits. And then, reconstructed a person who was more socially responsible, more honest, had better character.\nMARTIN: Today, McClellan says addiction needs to be treated like diabetes.\nMCCLELLAN: Now, it would be unthinkable for somebody with diabetes to go to their priest to find a cure for diabetes. Well, that's not unthinkable in addiction, because the public just doesn't understand it as a chronic illness.\nMARTIN: But addiction did feel like a chronic disease to Shane Linehan. He spent 15 years as a Minnesota police officer and had series of close calls.\nSHANE LINEHAN: My head was a mess. I didn't sleep. I had panic attacks constantly.\nMARTIN: To calm himself down, he drank a lot.\nLINEHAN: Rather than killing myself, I decided to try to drink myself healthy. Only a drunk could make that logical assumption, right?\nMARTIN: Linehan started using prescription drugs. And eventually, he had to face what had become a serious addiction.\nLINEHAN: My girlfriend - we've been together for eight years now. And she tossed me out and said go clean up or don't come home, so I went to treatment.\nMARTIN: He enrolled in a 28-day residential program at Hazelden in St. Paul, Minnesota. And while he says it put him on more solid footing, as soon as he left the safe confines of the rehab center, things started to unravel.\nLINEHAN: When I left there, life happened. All of those things - those piles of debris that, at one point, were a life were still there. And I had to start going through them and trying to put some pieces back together. And along the way there, I had trigger after trigger, after trigger.\nMARTIN: He relapsed, started taking Vicodin again. And, again, he sought help. But he was done with inpatient rehab. He had spent a lot of time and money, and it hadn't worked for him. So this time, he took a different option.\n(SOUNDBITE OF PHONE CONVERSATION)\nUNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #2: 8:30 will work? The 23rd of May. We'll see you then. Thanks for hanging in there with me.\nMARTIN: This is Alltyr. It's a new addiction clinic that opened last year in St. Paul, Minnesota that's taking a radically different approach to addiction treatment. Patients, like Shane Linehan, don't pack a bag and check into a residential facility. They don't go to group therapy, and they don't expect to get sober in 30 days. Instead, patients schedule regular appointments with a doctor who is more likely to give them a prescription, instead of motivational advice.\nMARK WILLENBRING: We do not do rehab. We are the alternative to rehab.\nMARTIN: This is Mark Willenbring. He's the CEO and founder of Alltyr.\nWILLENBRING: Our goal is to engage the patient in a recovery process. We don't have a particular approach. We don't tell people what to do.\nMARTIN: I can imagine, though, a patient coming to you who wants some structure, who's looking for answers, who says, I don't know how to make myself well. I need someone who's a professional to tell me.\nWILLENBRING: I do guide people, of course. And if they ask me for what my recommendation is, I have no problem giving them that.\nMARTIN: At Alltyr, that can mean a whole variety of medications that treat addiction to alcohol and opioids, as well as anxiety and depression. Some of them are approved by the FDA. Some of them aren't. Willenbring says traditional rehab centers shy away from medications and rely too much on talk therapy, which he says isn't a proven way to kick an addiction.\nMARVIN SEPPALA: I will admit that there's not a lot of studies that support it. But I think the overall dismissal of a residential setting for addiction treatment is well overstated.\nMARTIN: This is Dr. Marvin Seppala, chief medical officer of the newly merged Hazelden Betty Ford Center. And while his program is starting to use more medications, he says it's not enough.\nSEPPALA: This is a disease not just of the brain, but also the soul. I mean, the person's life is in the balance. Their relationships are in the balance. And if we only give them a medication and don't account for all of that, it's just not going to work out over time.\nMARTIN: As for Shane Linehan, he's been seeing Dr. Willenbring at Alltyr for the last five months. He's feeling good and hasn't relapsed. But he says, for him, sobriety doesn't look like the advertisements on TV. It is more basic than that.\nLINEHAN: A good doctor, a good psychologist and a really good AA group.\nMARTIN: And you anticipate seeing those people for years and years?\nLINEHAN: Yes. I mean, I would assume it would be the rest of my life.",

The class is suitable for all levels and for people who have to cope with the daily challenges and stresses that life throws at us.\nKundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan is for every person. It is for every body type, fitness or flexibility level, and it adapts to every life challenge and lifestyle. Kundalini Yoga is much more than just a system of physical exercises - it is a dynamic, powerful tool for expanding awareness of yourself and of yourself in relationship to others. It explores your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions, depth, nature and potential for an enriched life.\nKundalini Yoga is also known as the Yoga of Awareness. It is one of the most transformative yoga practices today. It is based on a set of exercises (kriya) that are designed specifically to target certain areas of your body in order to strengthen them and help them release toxins. It increases oxygen, boosts blood flow, balances the glandular system, strengthens the nervous system, builds intuition and reduces stress-induced toxins such as adrenaline and cortisol.\nWhat does a Kundalini Yoga class involve?\nEach class usually involves a short warm up sequence or breathing exercises, followed by a kriya (set), meditation and relaxation. In Kundalini Yoga we combine breath (pranayam), hand positions (mudra), eye-focus, meditation and sound (mantra), body locks, and postures (asana) in a precise and conscious manner.",

His talent has seen him appear on stages throughout NZ and overseas, including the UK, where Mark performed regularly for three years as both an original artiste and with his covers band.\nMark\u2019s return from London saw him playing bass guitar and singing for popular dance bands on the NZ pub and club circuit. The first original band Tyga Tyga, made it to 2nd place in the local battle of the bands. This band eventually morphed into the top cover band \u201cKick\u201d; Mark was the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist for the band.\nHe applied many tricks of the trade to this musical unit \u2013 most notably, and uniquely, \u2018hot-mixing tracks\u2019 live so there were no gaps at all between songs, often for a whole set. This quickly became a feature of Kick\u2019s performances. Kick played the high-end club and event circuit and once again Mark was traveling to perform, around NZ and offshore.\nBuilding on Kick\u2019s success, Mark moved onto his own band, Huckstep & Co which continued to dominate the club and pub scene for an additional seven years. After a brief stint at home to look after his newborn babies Mark joined cover band Rhythm & Groove, which became the first resident band for all of the Cock\u2019n\u2019Bull bars around Auckland.\nReturning to the live music scene - as well as recording jingles for multiple radio and television ads - got his name out there again. Mark was hand-picked for the Hauraki Band \u2013 a unique show band performing hits from the popular Hauraki radio station at venues and events such as Big Boys Toys, Beach N Boat, and v8 Supercars etc.\nMark has a very sensible and corporate day job \u2013 his alter ego comes out to play on stage!

        "raw_content": "Boil The Frog: The Coolest Playlist Generator We\u2019ve Seen All Year\nPaul Lamere, the man who brought us the Infinite Jukebox, Bohemian Rhapsichord, Bangarang Boomerang, and other fun stuff is at it again with Boil the Frog, a free web app that\u2019s a little bit like \u201csix degrees of separation.\u201d\nBoil the Frog is a curiosity \u2014 a conversation piece of sorts, but it\u2019s also a new way to listen to music. To try it, simply go here and enter the names of two bands that are ideally quite dissimilar to each other. The app instantly puts together a playlist of Rdio music, fading as gently as possible from the first artist to the second artist, from song to song. Get it? This is sort of what happens when you boil a frog, starting with lukewarm water. The water gets hotter, but the frog doesn\u2019t notice, and you can probably piece together the rest.\nAnyway, here\u2019s what happens if I try to get from my brother\u2019s and cousin\u2019s band (Javelin) to one of my favorite bands (The Fall). It takes just 13 steps, and it\u2019s great listening.\nThe app runs atop Rdio\u2019s web API as part of that company\u2019s budding app strategy. If you subscribe, you\u2019ll hear full versions of the songs; if not, you\u2019ll hear 30-second samples. Either way, it\u2019s good fun.\nHow does Boil the Frog (from Paul Lamere, director of developer platform for The Echo Nest, publisher of Evolver.fm) work, anyway? The short story: It\u2019s as complicated underneath as it is simple on the surface. I\u2019ll let him explain:\nTo create this app, The Echo Nest artist similarity info is used to build an artist similarity graph of about 100,000 of the most popular artists. Each artist in the graph is connected to it\u2019s most similar neighbors according to the Echo Nest artist similarity algorithm.\nWhen a playlist between two artists is created, the graph is used to find the path between the two artists. The path isn\u2019t necessarily the shortest path through the graph. Instead, priority is given to paths that travel through artists of similar popularity. If you start and end with a popular artist, you are more likely to find a path that takes you though other popular artists, and if you start with a long-tail artist you will likely find a path through other long-tail artists.\nOnce the path of artists is found, we need to select the best songs for the playlist. To do this, we pick a well-known song for each artist that minimizes the difference in energy between this song, the previous song and the next song.\nOnce we have selected the best songs, we build a playlist using Rdio\u2019s nifty web API.\nAnd there you have it. If you\u2019re bored of music, or you think you\u2019ve heard it all, or you\u2019re just looking to have some fun, Boil the Frog warrants a bit of attention. If you like what you hear, you can save it directly as a playlist in Rdio. And just like that, you\u2019ll have not only a great playlist (assuming you like both of the bands you enter), but one that takes you from one state to another\u2026 without you ever noticing.\n(via MusicMachinery)\nEvergreen, Playlists, Reviews, Web Apps\nboil frog, boil the frog, discover music, paul lamere, playlist, playlist creator, playlist generator, rdio, rdio api, rdio app, six degrees, six degrees of separation, web app\nBlues Writer",

        "raw_content": "Moving from one home to another is not easy as there is so much that has to get done. Time is limited, and there is often a huge checklist of items that must be completed. Movers must be called, items must be packed, furniture needs to be loaded, and both homes have to be cleaned. All of this takes time and energy, which is why the home moving checklist should be utilized to make the process more efficient.\nThe home moving checklist is a Microsoft Excel template that contains a pre-arranged list of items that must be completed during a home move. The list allows you to focus on getting things done, instead of making lists all the time.\nThis home moving checklist is available as a free download. The spreadsheet may be loaded into any computer that has Microsoft Excel, and it can be transferred to someone else through email. Open the spreadsheet and you will notice the checklist is already in place. It is divided chronologically, with separate lists for 6-8 weeks before a move, 4-6 weeks before a move, and 2-3 weeks before a move. Not only does this list provide information on everything that needs to be done, but it also allows you to understand when to begin on certain processes.\nUsing the Home Moving Checklist\nIn order to make the best use of this home moving checklist, take some time and go through every item on it. If there are any items that do not apply to your move, eliminate them from the spreadsheet. If there are items on the 4-6 weeks list that you think belong in the 6-8 weeks list, move them accordingly. Add anything that the list may have missed. For example, moving from the city to the suburbs may involve steps that are not highlighted in this list. Add those steps to one of the three lists so you will know when to get started on those jobs.\nThis home moving checklist is incredibly straightforward and easy to use, even for those who are not computer savvy. Once the list is edited to your liking, save a copy on your computer. You can print out as many copies as you need, or email them to your family members and/or the movers. This home movers checklist will make your life a lot easier. All the information you need about your move is available in one or two pages.\nDownload: Home Moving Checklist",

        "title": "About Half of Americans Own Stocks - Fact or Myth?",
        "raw_content": "About One Half of... 4 Money 68 Stock Market 14\nEconomics 75 Economy 45 Education 10 Social Sciences 256 Society 221 Society and Social Sciences 324 Taxes 24\nAbout Half of Americans Own Stocks Fact\nAround half of American adults (52% according to a 2016 Gallup Poll) own stocks.\nWhat Percentage of America Owns Stocks?\nAccording to a 2016 Gallup poll about half of American adults own stocks and about half don\u2019t. This is down since 2007 when around 65% of American adults owned stocks.[1][2]\nThis means, although percentages change each year, counting HSAs, 401(k)s, IRAs, private investing, the employee\u2019s who receive shares as benefits, and all other investment types: only 1 in 2 American adults are actively invested in the market.\nJust Over Half of Americans Own Stocks, Matching Record Low. Gallup.\nThis may seem high or low depending on your perspective, but as noted above, this is less than in past years. This is unfortunate in many ways. 65% of America owned stocks at the height of the 2007 Financial Crisis, while only 52% own stock today. Meanwhile, the market has rallied since the crash. That means those in the market made a steady return, while those who exited the market after the crash lost money, and those who never entered or reentered haven\u2019t gained anything.\nFACT: According to inequality.org the richest 1% of Americans hold about 35% of all privately held wealth in the United States. Meanwhile, according to a 2014 article in the NY Times, the bottom 90% hold 73% of all debt. These numbers differ by source and date, but specifics aside, the point is, the cards are stacked against you unless your last name is Buffet or Icahn. By not investing in \u201ctax advantaged vehicles\u201d like a 401(k) you only make joining the 1% (or even the 10% without the bulk of debt) harder. You could potentially lose your pension, but you could manage your own private investments, retirement account, or HSA and take your risk and rewards into your own hands while enjoying a tax benefit. Even for those who want to \u201csit in cash\u201d and not take risks, I am of the opinion that every tax paying American should learn the basics of the market or find a fiduciary they trust. If you don\u2019t actively invest your money in the physical world like a small business or real estate, you might fail to utilize the market or tax-advantaged savings accounts. This would leave you facing inflation and measly bank interest returns. This may leave you taking the brunt of a crash like we had in 2000 and 2007. Many of the 50% of Americans who don\u2019t own stock could potentially benefit from owning it, but this isn\u2019t the only option, and it carries risk.[3]\nThe Bank Vs. Tax-Advantaged Vehicles\nToday banks pay next to nothing in interest, the only way to offset inflation in the long term is the market. So while investors always take on risk for that interest, and while a 2007-style crash remains a possibility, Americans not invested in the market may want to consider the generous tax benefits of a retirement account or 401(k).\nLearn more about the basics of investing, 401(k)s / IRAs, and HSAs by clicking on the links. Here is the simplest summary I can muster. Please note that the amount you can fund and the tax implications differ by factors of income, employment status, etc.\n401(k) is a retirement account that lets you invest the funds. Tax-free in, but you pay taxes when you take money out. This has higher limits and benefits those with higher incomes. To get a 401(k), you must be offered one through an employer; you can use a solo 401(k) if you are self-employed.\nIRA is a retirement account that lets you invest the funds. Roth IRAs are taxed going in, but you don\u2019t pay taxes on the other end, traditional IRAs work more like a 401(k). An IRA has lower limits and can benefit those with lower incomes. See IRA vs. 401(k) \u2013 What\u2019s the Difference?\nHSA is a health savings account that is tax-free in and tax-free out and lets you invest. HSAs carry great benefits, but only for those who have the money to fund them. See our Guide to HSAs.\nTIP: Above are the common tax-advantaged vehicles, there are also 403(b), 457 plans, and the Thrift Savings Plan for example. Also, not all vehicles can be funded at the same time. For example, you can\u2019t max out your 401(k) and your IRA.\nFrom the Author\u2019s Perspective: An Example\nEvery year I max out my 401(k) and HSA and take advantage of matching employer contributions in line with my income and health plan. Each year I make a return on my money and avoid paying the top tax rate on the part of it that I put in my HSA. If that seems unfair, it is, but only partially. I\u2019m taking a risk and, if I withdraw the money before retirement, I have to pay fees. I will also need to pay taxes when I take the money out. Taking advantage of ALL tax benefits you are eligible for, is going to put you in a much better place than you would be otherwise. Apparently, half of Americans are not taking advantage of this, and even bearing in mind that 1/2 of America doesn\u2019t pay income taxes, this still tells me some people who could be improving their financial standing aren\u2019t doing so.\n401(k) Contribution Challenge \u2013 Investing Basics | Fidelity.\nFACT: A majority of Millennials, the generation of people who in 2015 were between the ages of 18 and 34, do not invest in the stock market. When I use the term \u201cstock market,\u201d I include buying individual company stocks, bundles of stocks through mutual funds or exchange-traded funds, and contributing to retirement accounts such as 401(k)s. This has far-reaching negative side-effects. The longer you have to invest in the market, the better your returns will be, and the better you can absorb the inevitable \u201cbubble pops.\u201d Please learn about bubbles and dollar cost averaging before you go putting a lump sum into a popular ETF.\nAccording to Gallup and other sources, the general consensus is that about half of America is attached to the ebb and flow of the market via stocks. Likewise, the other half is compeltely disconnected from this aspect of our economy (and by logical extension has no tax-advantaged savings account).\nIt is easy to show this is generally true by simply double checking the studies and polling methods, but the implications are more complex than a simple statistics-based factoid.\nThere is something unhealthy about us not all being in the same boat together, despite the ever-present risk of busting bubbles. I can\u2019t recommend investing to one who won\u2019t learn about responsible investing, thus, I suggest any tax paying American learn about how to take the tax advantages and invest wisely. The tax code essentially forces your hand to fund 401(k)s and HSA(s) once you start moving up the tax brackets.\nIn a society where most own debt and only a small fraction a bulk of the wealth, it really makes sense to attach yourself to the market. Statistically speaking only 1 in a billion is a buffet, and only a few in the top 1% can afford BRK-A, but most Americans can afford to own at least one share of BRK-B and be \u201ca part of\u201d the ebb and flow.\nJust Over Half of Americans Own Stocks, Matching Record Low\nWhy so few millennials invest in the stock market\nHow the stock market is a sham for the working and middle class. 53 percent of Americans have no money in the stock market, including retirement accounts. 62 percent of all US wealth owned by top 5 percent.\n\"About Half of Americans Own Stocks\" is tagged with: About One Half of..., Money, Stock Market\nVote Fact or Myth: \"About Half of Americans Own Stocks\" Cancel reply\nAnonymole on December 29, 2017\nDirect or indirect, this makes sense. However, owning stocks means little I own 10 shares of IBM. So #&*$!# What!\nWell owning 10 shares of IBM means that trickle down economics works a little better for you than it does for the person who doesn\u2019t own 10 shares of IBM. If everyone has ownership of capital assets that appreciate in value, then capitalism is by its nature more distributive.\nIf you have a broad portfolio creating income, and the rest of your income is labor, then when politicans give tax breaks to corporations, cut assistance, and suppress wages, your capital grows at a rate faster than being purely labor.\nCapital generally grows faster than income from labor (that is, ROI on assets like stocks generally outpaces the rising of wages against the buying power of the dollar), so \u201cthe many\u201d being in capital assets is vital to offsetting the wealth gap over time (otherwise the system naturally compounds and suppresses the many and favors the few; natural mechanics of capitalist markets).\nWe live in a capitalist society, so it is vital to ensure that the average person has a cut of our publicly traded capital assets. We don\u2019t need to \u201cgive\u201d this to people (although I personally think it would be a good move), we can simply facilitate it better by focusing on HSAs, 401ks, IRAs, pensions, companies offering stock, etc.\n50% is good, we need to do better. The capitalist ruling class can build walls and fences, they can hire body guards, they can do whatever they want, but the walls will close in on them if wealth disparity gets too great. I don\u2019t see how that house of cards doesn\u2019t implode if we don\u2019t find a way to better distribute capital assets. The current stock market is a free enough market, if we can leverage that, then we don\u2019t have to wait until the house of cards collapses, we can, you know, fix the problem before it all goes to heck.\nSo far not so good, but you never know what the future will bring in a Democratic Republic. We have the power to make change, we just haven\u2019t done that well [by some measures] so far [by other measures we have done great].\nTom on August 16, 2018\nThe \u201chalf of all Americans\u201d. Does this include children who are too young to own stock?\nI should have made that clear, it is American adults. So about half of all American adults own stocks.\nBruno Ausman on September 9, 2018\nEven though half of adults own stock to further refine how few actually do consider this: only 20% of households own stock. That source is from Bem Bernanke\u2019s book (he was Fed chairman during the crisis). So the adults that own stocks are most likely partnered together.\nThis means that 80% of households do not own any stocks. If they happen to have kids it means their kids are learning nothing from their parents about investing. So the ignorance continues from generation to generation.\nThank you so much for that clarification! I did not think of it that way.\nSo if most of the 50% are partnered, then it is more like 20% \u2013 30% of households which own stocks.\nThat paints a more dreary picture than I had thought. I\u2019ll do some more research here. Thanks!",

While she was raised a Southerner, she spent her entire adult life living in the North. The time of her greatest fame was between 1836, when a letter she sent to William Lloyd Garrison was published in his anti-slavery newspaper, The Liberator, and May 1838, when she gave a courageous and brilliant speech to abolitionists gathered in Philadelphia, with a hostile crowd throwing stones and shouting outside the hall. The essays and speeches she produced in that two-year period were incisive arguments to end slavery and to advance women's rights. Drawing her views from natural rights theory, the Constitution, Christian beliefs in the Bible, and her own experience of slavery and racism in the South, she argued for the injustice of denying freedom to any man or woman, and was particularly eloquent on the problem of racial prejudice.\nAngelina Emily Grimk\u00e9 Weld",

The levels of E2, E1, T, and inhibin B did not differ between the groups.\nThe AMH, LH, and FSH levels were increased in adult male relatives of women with PCOS, suggesting that they may have altered testicular function and changes in neuroendocrine regulation of gonadotropin secretion. These changes may reflect effects of PCOS susceptibility genes such as the recently mapped chromosome 11p14.1 locus in the region of the FSH B polypeptide gene.\nCategory: Uncategorized \u00b7 Tags: antim\u00fcllerian hormone, first degree relatives, Gonadotropins, Polycystic ovary syndrome",

If we were snowed in (instead of all that rain), it would've been awesome, sitting with a mug of hot tea...\nBe sure to take some time for yourself to just chill among all the Christmas knitting. That way you don't get burned out.\nPlain and Joyful Living December 5, 2012 at 3:17 PM\nYour knitting is really beautiful.\nI'm glad to see knitting helps you relieve stress---it's great like that, isn't it? I think it was in one of the recent Martha Stewart Living issues that there was an article about how crafting affects the brain---a lot like meditating. Though lately I've been having the opposite problem: I sit down to knit and a flood of \"should-do's\" enter my brain and I just have to get up and do them.\nI'm also super impressed at your speedy knitting and ambition. Tonight, my mother is having a little meeting here at our house that she has the first Wednesday of every month. I just realized that is was exactly one month ago I sat here in my room trying to figure out how to turn a heel! One month! That first sock is done and I'm not even at the heel of the second one. Oh boy! And I hope to complete two more by the 25th!?\nWith that said: back to my knitting!\nKepanie December 6, 2012 at 5:56 PM\nCan't beat basic, functioning socks.

        "title": "Firearms History, Technology & Development: Rifling: Brunswick Rifle",
        "raw_content": "Rifling: Brunswick Rifle\nIn the last post, we studied some early rifled firearms, including the Baker rifle. These rifles were all of the muzzle-loading type and used flintlock firing mechanisms. The invention of the percussion lock in the early 1800s made the firing mechanism much more reliable than the old flintlock system. The growing popularity of the percussion lock finally caught the eye of George Lovell, an employee of Enfield rifles, who was experimenting with ignition mechanisms, and also trying to improve the accuracy of rifles. The first model prototype of the Brunswick rifle had a percussion lock, with eleven rifling grooves in the barrel instead of the usual seven of the Baker rifle. The metal parts were all blued or case-hardened so as to not shine and give the user's position away. The rifle also had a fixed rear sight for 200 yards with a folding leaf for ranges beyond 300 yards.\nThis rifle was experimental and still not named the Brunswick rifle yet. Mr. Lovell submitted it to an evaluation competition for the rifle brigade in 1836. Meanwhile, another competing rifle was submitted by a Mr. Seabright, who was acting on behalf of the Duke of Brunswick. This rifle was invented by one Captain Berners, who was then serving as a Field Adjunant under the Duke of Brunswick's forces. This rifle had two very wide grooves which made a complete turn inside the barrel. The rifle was complemented by a bullet shaped like a ball with a straight belt running around its surface. Such a bullet was called a \"belted-ball\".\nThe idea of using a ball with a belt around it was not new. There was a Spanish rifle from 1725 that used the same idea. Nevertheless, the committee found some objections to the Brunswick submitted entry, mainly that a cartridge could not be used with this rifle, it had complicated sights and weighed more (almost 11 lbs.) than other competing weapons. It was also harder to load than the competition, due to the problem of aligning the ball's groove to the barrel. However, it was noted that this rifle shot as well than the competition at short ranges and shot much more accurately than everything else at long ranges. It also required less cleaning than its rivals and suffered less wear and tear than the grooved rifles at that point.\nThe decision was made in 1837, to use the general Enfield rifle design (for its lightness, less complicated sights, easier to handle, percussion lock and no shiny parts) but to change it from using its eleven groove barrel and use the belted ball and groove design from the Duke of Brunswick's rifle entry, which had much better accuracy. The new weapon was to be called the Brunswick rifle as well, even though most of its parts were from the Enfield design. The job of designing the new weapon also fell onto Mr. Lovell and the Enfield company.\nThe new entry submitted by Mr. Lovell in late 1837 also removed a few of the objections of the committee from the previous competition. This rifle now weighed only 9 lbs. and also had two semicircular notches at the end of the barrel, which made aligning the bullet while loading much more easier. The image below shows the end of the barrel with the new design.\nThe resulting rifle also had a longer bayonet than the older Baker rifle and also moved the bayonet attachment bar slightly back from the front-end of the rifle, so that when the bayonet was attached, the bayonet guard was not in front of the barrel -- a fault of the older Baker rifle.\nThe first order of 1000 rifles was given in October 1837 and it became quickly apparent that 600 of these rifles were urgently required by the Rifle brigade and that Enfield would not be able to complete these in the time required. Hence, the manufacture of the first batch of these rifles was outsourced to many gunmakers in and around London, many of whom were in the process of completing their final orders of Baker flintlocks for the British army!\nPublic domain image courtesy of wikipedia.com\nTroops were issued with two kinds of ammunition for this rifle. One was a loose ball with a greased calico patch cloth and a separate blank paper cartridge that contained a pre-measured charge of gunpowder. This type produced the best effect in terms of accuracy. The other type consisted of a greased paper cartridge that contained the belted-ball and the pre-measured gunpowder charge all in one packet. This type was intended for rapid firing. Troops could also use the older paper-cartridges with the round ball and ammunition in case of an emergency.\nMr. Lovell had brought into production 3 new weapons: a carbine, a smoothbore musket and a rifle. The carbine was named the Victoria carbine in honor of Queen Victoria and the musket was named the Lovell Pattern musket. Mr. Lovell wrote to the board requesting that the rifle be named after him as the \"Lovell Two-Groove Pattern Rifle\", but the board refused him saying that his rifle was a modification of the Duke of Brunswick's rifling design and hence should be called \"Lovell's Improved Brunswick Rifle\". This later began to be popularly called the \"Brunswick Rifle\" for short, even though George Lovell had more to do with the overall design!\nLike the earlier Baker rifle (and its direct ancestor, the German Jaeger rifle), this rifle also had a patch box on the side of the stock which contained cleaning tools and greased patches. The original design by Mr. Lovell was simply a box to contain patches, an improvement by one Major Boileau led to the following design:\nIn the above design, the patch box is divided into two sections. The left section has a screw in the middle of it with a large T-shaped head. This section is used to store small cleaning tools and brushes and the T head prevents them from accidentally falling out when the patch box is opened. The right section is circular-shaped and used to store greased calico cloth patches and a small rag to wipe the barrel.\nIn 1841, a second version of this rifle was issued. This rifle had some minor changes done to the percussion lock design. The bayonet attachment bar was also changed from having a hook design at the end, to a more centrally located notch, as can be seen in the figure below.\nA third version of the rifle made in 1848 further improved the lock design to a lighter side-lock and made more changes to the bayonet catch.\nBy 1850, new ideas were coming into rifle design, including a design using a new expanding bullet called the Minie ball, and hence weapons like the Brunswick rifle were becoming outdated. However a new batch of 4000 Brunswick rifles were ordered with the understanding that this would be the last batch to be manufactured for the British troops. After 1853, British troops started to replace their Brunswick rifles with the newer breech-loading Enfields using the Minie ball.\nNevertheless, Brunswick rifles continued to be used in other parts of the British Empire for many years to come. In fact, the manufacturing line was reopened in the 1860s specifically for use by soldiers in India. The picture below illustrates a Brunswick rifle used by the Sikh regiment.\nAs can be seen from the picture above, there is a marking \"1865 Tower\" on the lock plate. This indicates that this particular rifle was manufactured in 1865. The word \"Tower\" indicates that the rifle meets the specification standards of the British armory (i.e. the so-called \"Tower\" proof mark -- the Royal Armory that enforced these standards was located in the Tower of London) Also interesting is that the rifle has an additional marking that consists of the letter I with an arrow above it. This marking indicates that the rifle was manufactured for use in India. Additional markings to indicate that this was used by the Sikh regiment are found in the butt-plate at the end of the rifle butt.\nLabels: Brunswick Rifle, Enfield, rifle, Rifling\nBarrel Making: Pattern Welded or Damascus Barrels\nBarrel Making: Early Barrel Making in Europe\nBarrel Making: Early Gun Making in Europe\nBarrel Making: Early History\nRifling: Manufacturing: Electro Chemical Machining...\nRifling: Manufacturing: Electric Discharge Machini...\nRifling: Manufacturing: Flow Forming\nRifling: Manufacturing: Hammer Forged Rifling\nRifling: Manufacturing: Broach Rifling\nRifling: Manufacturing: Cut Rifling\nRifling: Terminology\nRifling: Breechloaders\nRifling: Polygonal Bore and the Whitworth Rifle\nRifling: Expanding Bullets and the Minie Rifle\nRifling: History\nRifling: Basics\nExotic Firing Mechanisms: Electrical\nCartridges: Caseless Cartridge\nCartridges: Centerfire cartridge\nCartridges: Rimfire Cartridge\nCartridges: Pinfire Cartridge\nCartridges: Needle Gun Cartridge\nCartridges: The Paper Cartridge",

Politics is no longer about pointing to a shining city on the hill; it\u2019s about promising you a shiny new car for your driveway. The candidate who tells the people what they want to hear is usually the one who wins\u2014facts be damned. Politicians may be sleazy and spineless, but they\u2019re not stupid. They see that the way to win is by first telling people everything that is wrong with the world, and then painting a vision of the life they want\u2014a Utopian vision that they\u2019ll create right here on earth, one where no one is ever sick or hungry, jobless, or homeless. All we have to do is surrender our freedom and someone else\u2019s wallet and they\u2019ll make it happen. And so they continue to lie, and we continue to believe them, and they keep winning elections. The only way to break the cycle is to understand why Americans fall for the deception over and over again. In Liars, #1 bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio host Glenn Beck reveals the startlingly simple answer: fear. At our most basic level, we\u2019re all afraid of something. Progressives from both parties exploit this by first pointing out the things we should be afraid of, and then offering us \u201csolutions\u201d to these fears. Solutions that always require us to give up our freedoms. Solutions that are based on two things: lies, and an unrelenting hunger for power and control. In his signature no-holds-barred way, Beck destroys the false promises of Progressivism and takes us through its history, showing how each \u201cwave\u201d built up on the one before it, ultimately washing up to the beach in the form of Barack Obama\u2014and whoever is next.\nLiars: How Progressives Exploit Our Fears for Power and Control ePub (Adobe DRM) can be read on any device that can open ePub (Adobe DRM) files.\nLiars: How Progressives Exploit Our Fears for Power and Control tweets",

Trump responded by doubling down, saying, \u201cWell, nobody knows that for a fact.\u201d\n\u201cDo you want me to start naming some of the things that President Obama does at the same time?\u201d he added provocatively.\nSee also: Read Hillary\u2019s and Trump\u2019s Full Remarks at Tonight\u2019s Military Forum\nOn Putin, Trump also said \u201cthe man has very strong control over a country.

        "title": "Google: Why I Had to Leave to Succeed as an Entrepreneur | Fortune",
        "raw_content": "I Had to Leave Google to Succeed As an Entrepreneur\nBy Pete Johnston\nThe Leadership Insiders network is an online community where the most thoughtful and influential people in business contribute answers to timely questions about careers and leadership. Today\u2019s answer to the question, \u201cWhat advice would you give your 22-year-old self today?\u201d is written by Pete Johnston, CEO of Lystable.\nI always knew that I was not going to spend my life working for someone else, but it took a while for me to get to the point where I could actually build my own company. Throughout this process, I received two key pieces of advice\u2014one personal, one professional\u2014that I would give to my 22-year-old self.\nMy background is in graphic design, and after graduating from university I took a couple of freelance and agency gigs before landing at Google. It was a great job, but I knew that it was going to hard for me to settle there. I had just never found my groove in a company, and so was always looking for what my next thing would be. I felt that I just needed the right idea. In all my jobs, I\u2019d experienced the pain points involved in managing freelancers, and this experience, combined with exposure to all the entrepreneurs succeeding through programs like Google Campus and Google Ventures, inspired me to found Lystable.\nArmed with this inspiration, I wasn\u2019t sure what to do next. I was on my own, without many connections or much experience, but I managed to wrangle a meeting with the managing director of Techstars London, an organization that helps entrepreneurs build their startups. He was upfront with me, saying that I would never get into Techstars as a solo founder with no product, no team, and no business plan. My cozy job at Google, where I got three free meals a day and stayed squarely in my comfort zone, was beginning to look pretty nice. But after a number of weeks and grueling interviews, Techstars decided that they liked my idea. I was told during my final interview that if I wanted to pursue it, I needed to hand in my notice to Google the following day.\nI made the decision to leave the Google mothership and venture into the unknown for the first time. Everyone around me thought I was crazy. My mother couldn\u2019t believe I left a job that paid well and enabled me to support myself. I knew that founding a startup would be risky and involve a different pace of life, but I still wasn\u2019t totally prepared for the intense, draining experience of going through an accelerator program as a solo founder, with no one to share the burden of brutal feedback.\nAt Techstars, I was introduced to a veteran in the startup space who generously met with me on a regular basis. He said to me, \u201cLook, it\u2019s going to be scary. This is normal. All passionate startup founders go through this, and you can\u2019t give up. Keep going.\u201d\nThis was what my younger self needed to hear. There are countless moments of doubt and fear as an entrepreneur. I know it sounds simple, but \u201cdon\u2019t give up\u201d was a piece of advice that got me through the intense ups and downs and reminded me that I could start a company. The unknown used to be something I feared. But now I welcome it, since I know I have a great team and network behind me.\nThe second important piece of advice was about how to approach my product. In the early days of Lystable, the Techstars London managing director told me to throw out the rulebook. I was accustomed to a somewhat rigid corporate environment, and he wanted to make sure that I didn\u2019t limit myself.\nThat advice still rings true for me today, more than I ever thought possible. For example, Lystable is currently tackling payments from our companies to freelancers this quarter, and originally I thought something as transactional as this was going to be simple. I was totally wrong\u2014we ended up needing to find more creative solutions to the problem.\nThese two pieces of advice\u2014don\u2019t give up and completely ignore the rulebook and conventions already in place\u2014have had a profound influence on who I am as an entrepreneur. If I hadn\u2019t listened to these lessons, I\u2019d most likely be back at a nice comfy corporate job, wondering about what could have been.",

        "title": "This Is Why Your Hands Wrinkle in Water | Fortune",
        "raw_content": "This Is Why Your Skin Wrinkles in Water\nBy Cailey Rizzo and Travel + Leisure\nAs the warmer months quickly approach, summer getaways are likely on many travelers\u2019 minds. Whether they\u2019re conjuring up images of pristine beaches or poolside cocktails or vertigo-inducing waterslides, getting wet is synonymous with summer travel.\nAnd for those who love cooling down by jumping in a pool, there\u2019s probably one mystery about the whole experience left unsolved: Why do fingers and toes get wrinkly after spending time in the pool, but no other part of your body does?\nThe answer, as always, lies in science.\nFingers, toes and the soles of feet are all covered in something called \u201cglabrous skin,\u201d which basically just means skin where hair won\u2019t grow.\nMany people assume that when skin here wrinkles, it\u2019s just water passing into the skin\u2019s outer layer and making it swell up. However, in the 1930s, scientists proved that this human reaction does not happen in people with certain types of nerve damage. Therefore, skin wrinkles are involuntarily controlled by the body\u2019s nervous system. It\u2019s actually the blood vessels below the skin constricting.\nThere are a few other theories suggesting why skin wrinkles: Some biologists believe that the wrinkling is caused by dead keratin cells absorbing water. Because skin on the hands and feet has the highest counts of dead keratin cells, that could be why they are the only parts of the body to wrinkle.\nWhatever the cause, the reaction is most likely something left over from evolution. When skin gets wrinkly, it makes it easier to grab things. Our ancestors may have used this trait to gather food from wet vegetation or make it easier to walk in the rain.\nToday, the most we probably use it for is trapping small items that fall off the edge and sink to the bottom of the pool.",

The property and its development is planned for easy access as a destination location that will provide housing, entertainment, office space, retail and hotel occupancies, restaurants and adequate parking for those that venture to this Harbor Location. Also planned for this location is the possible development of the new Cruise Ship Terminal that will serve the visitors and passengers embarking on weeklong and 10-day long cruises to the North and South.\nThis property has the capability of supporting more that 2.5 million square feet of occupancy and is the first of the many buildings that is being designed and is scheduled to begin construction in early 2004. This 510,000 SF, 17-story office building will be the signature building of the campus and will be the headquarters of and partially occupied by First Mariner Bank. The design team on this project consists of Arium Architects, WBCM (Architects and Engineers), Gipe Associates (Mechanical and Electrical Engineers), and Ross Infrastructure, who is providing master planning for the site infrastructure. The Trammell Crow Company is the leasing resource for this initial office tower, Gilbane Building is the Construction Manager, and Hale Properties is the developer.\nAlong with this initial signature building, there will be an 800-space parking structure built to support the office tower and the initial planning for the site. Additional parking will be provided as other buildings in the proposed campus come on line. The second phase of this approved Master Plan will begin in January 2004 with the initial design of the first 200-room hotel. WBCM has done preliminary architectural and engineering planning for this 4-star hotel that will also have a 50,000 SF attached Conference Center as part of the project that will be operated by the hotel owner. A second 150-room hotel is planned adjacent to the initial facility and will be connected by pedestrian walkways and bridges to the waterfront, the parking garages, and possibly to a new Cruise Ship Terminal.\nThis project is one of the most significant projects to be developed in Baltimore since the Inner Harbor Development created by the Rouse Company and will contain over $150 million in development to the area. Once completed, this site will be a vital link to business and recreational needs of the City of Baltimore.\n\u201cThis project is one of the most significant projects to be developed in Baltimore since the Inner Harbor Development created by the Rouse Company and will contain over $150 million in development to the area.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "New York/ 185 Bowery/ 19 fl\n19-Story CitizenM Hotel on the Bowery\nThat pent-up energy from years of inactivity at 185 Bowery was relieved last week with an ejaculate of plywood fencing and construction crews. All of a sudden, there is an explosion of work at the CitizenM hotel site, mostly related to foundation and excavation. So what will this 19-story beast look like?\nGood questions. An updated rendering was posted to the project site, as mandated by Department of Buildings. Yet, in the three years since the illustrations were first uncovered, the design of the Dutch-based CitizenM hotel on the Bowery apparently changed. For example, the new design does away with that terrible aquarium element atop the structure. Either way, it\u2019s another tower to ruin the Bowery.\nIt\u2019s worth noting that the gargantuan nature of this CitizenM hotel was possible due to a lack of zoning restrictions on the east side of the Bowery. That\u2019s why the thoroughfare is so uneven when looking at building heights. On the other side, the Special Little Italy District limits the vertical to eighty-five feet.\nUpon its eventual debut, the CitzenM hotel will boast 300 keys spread between floors 2 to 17 (20 rooms per level). Amenities for guests include a gym, basement bar, and rooftop lounge/terrace on the 19th floor. Plans also call for the construction of a 3,383 square-foot public plaza. Completion is expected sometime in the winter of 2016. We\u2019ll take the over on that bet\u2026\nNEW YORK | 130 William Street | 581 FT | 50 FLOORS\nProject: 130 William Street\nCurrent Site:\nThere, at 130 William Street, the development firm is planning to erect a 50-story hotel and condo tower, according to plans filed with the Department of Buildings this afternoon, submitted by Goldstein, Hill & West Architects.\nThe skyscraper would reach 581 feet into the air, according to the filing, and include 188 apartments \u2013 likely condos \u2013 perched above an unspecified number of hotel rooms. The first and second floors would house retail, with the third through fifth floors set aside for residential and hotel amenity spaces. The hotel rooms would start on the sixth floor and reach through to the 17th, after which a mechanical floor would buffer the short-stay rooms from the permanent apartments.\nStarting on the 19th floor, we find the apartments, with six units on each level up through the 49th floor (with the 34th floor set aside for residential amenities). There would then be one final apartment on the penthouse level, taking up the whole 50th floor. In total, the 188 apartments would be spread over 236,000 square feet of residential space, for an average unit size of over 1,250 square feet, strongly hinting at condos.\nThe hotel and retail space, meanwhile, would total 101,000 square feet.\nThe assemblage sits around, but not on, the corner of Fulton and William streets, stretching from 130 William Street south of Fulton (which Lightstone acquired earlier this year for $60 million) around to Gold Street and Fulton, but does not include 138 William Street, at the corner with Fulton.\nFisher Brothers owns 92 Fulton Street in the middle of the assemblage, having bought the site last June for $10 million. This could mean that they\u2019re a partner in the development, or that they merely intend to sell the site to Lightstone.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2015/03/lig...-district.html\nLast edited by chris08876; Mar 24, 2015 at 10:39 PM.\nNEW YORK | 3009 Broadway | FT | 12 FLOORS\nProject: 3009 Broadway\nBarnard is planning to knock down Lehman Hall, which holds its library and faculty offices, and replace it with a new five-story building holding a library and classrooms, attached to a 12-story tower holding offices and a science center.\nThe college expects to demolish Lehman starting in December, and have the new building open by August 2018.

Chang, who runs Great Neck-based McSam Hotel Group, wants to build a roughly 38,400-square-foot hotel with 120 rooms. Plans call for 10 rooms apiece on floors two through 13.\nGene Kaufman, a regular Chang collaborator, is serving as the architect of record. Champion Parking now leases the parking lot.\nChang acquired the 99-year triple-net lease on the property at an annual rent of $90,000 in November.\nhttp://therealdeal.com/blog/2015/03/...hotel-project/\nNEW YORK | 1580 Nostrand Avenue | 241 FT | 23 FLOORS\nProject: 1580 Nostrand Avenue\nThe application called for a 23-story, 241-foot-tall building, taking up most of the block bounded by Nostrand Avenue, Albemarle Road, East 29th Street, and Tilden Avenue, with frontage on the first three streets.\nThe design features a taper as the tower reaches skyward (going from up to a dozen apartments on the fourth floor to just three on the 23rd), somewhat minimizing the impact of the building\u2019s height. The tower will be about as tall as 626 Flatbush Avenue, Hudson\u2019s project on the other side of Flatbush, in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, which has caused much consternation (although the architecture for 1580 Nostrand is arguably more attractive than the PTAC-pocked 626 Flatbush, and definitely more interesting).\nThe building is planned to have 153 apartments, spread over 129,000 square feet of space. The average unit size of 840 square feet would normally be indicative of rentals, but condos are Hello Living\u2019s bread and butter. With little common area that doesn\u2019t count towards zoning, it\u2019s possible the building will have private keyed elevators, saving on construction costs.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2015/03/rev...-flatbush.html\nNEW YORK | 11 Stone Street | 275 FT | 27 FLOORS\nProject: 11 Stone Street\nThe site\u2019s developer is Premier Emerald LLC, and Shiming Tam is the architect of record. The 27-story building will have 143 rooms spanning approximately 57,000 square feet, and surprisingly, it appears the project\u2019s design will actually be palatable.\nUnlike most new hotels rising in the Financial District, 11 Stone will feature a minimal setback from the street-wall, keeping the block\u2019s urban fabric intact. And above its base, the building will have some semblance of ornamentation, which is even rarer for new hotels, as most tend towards austere repetition of the most value-engineered floor-plates possible.\nWhile the building\u2019s roof height is 275 feet above the street, counting the water tank-encapsulating rooftop gives the project a minor boost to 295 feet. Even at that height, the structure will be swallowed by the man-made canyons of the Financial District.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2015/03/rev...ict-hotel.html\nNew thread for 200k square foot tower on a small site: 428 - 432 East 58th Street\nDesigned by Norman Foster too which is a big plus.\nThread: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=216374\nLast edited by chris08876; Mar 28, 2015 at 5:56 PM.\n^ There's a thread for that one here.\nAh you're right.

        "raw_content": "Storing parts inside an electrical enclosure\nStarted by Joe E., 5 Sep 2017\nIt's a common practice in our plant to store electrical spare parts in the bottom of control cabinet enclosures. They're not in the way and don't interfere with troubleshooting the cabinet. I've been told that this practice is a violation of NEC, but I can't find it anywhere in NEC or in NFPA 79. Or on Mike Holt's site (I'm not a member there).\nIs this a code violation? If so, what section?\nMark Bromley 1\nIm not sure if it would be a code violation or not, if it is I have never heard of it and i have been to several NEC code classes through the years. I personaly woudn't care if it was if you have a system that works for your plant i don't see any problem with it. The stuff stored in the enclosure is probably stuff that would be used in that enclosure, it might not be a good idea to store earplugs in a panel\nandybr 3\nI am not in the USA and not governed by NEC requirements but I do not like to see anything including (and especially) drawings/manuals stored in panels. This is because most of the major modes of failure that occur in panels are quite capable of destroying the items stored inside them which you might well need to repair the damage. In my experience these modes of failure tend to be:-\ni) Water ingress - self explanatory.\nii) Arcing which can coat stored parts in carbon and sputtered copper.\niii) Fire, again self explanatory.\nMy point is that it may or may not be against code but you should think about the wisdom of doing it anyway.\nYou make good points about damaging spare parts. It's not my preference at all, but we don't have a good system in place for securely storing them elsewhere. Every time we set up shelves with parts, the shop gets rearranged and unqualified people decide what to keep without qualified people even being aware that the sorting is underway. Protests land on deaf ears as tens of thousands of dollars of parts vanish overnight. If they're in the cabinets, at least they're out of sight/out of mind until needed. The same is true for drawings that electricians will need. It's hard enough to keep track of them in the cabinets; anywhere else is impossible.\nI wish our situation was different, but 6 years of trying to adjust the culture have been fruitless.\nI was actually kind of hoping that it was an NEC violation so I could at least push for doing something else, but I may not have that \"ammo\".",

        "title": "FED Statement - 12/17/14 - Technical Watch Forum",
        "raw_content": "Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in October suggests that economic activity is expanding at a moderate pace. Labor market conditions improved further, with solid job gains and a lower unemployment rate. On balance, a range of labor market indicators suggests that underutilization of labor resources continues to diminish. Household spending is rising moderately and business fixed investment is advancing, while the recovery in the housing sector remains slow. Inflation has continued to run below the Committee's longer-run objective, partly reflecting declines in energy prices. Market-based measures of inflation compensation have declined somewhat further; survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable.\nConsistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee seeks to foster maximum employment and price stability. The Committee expects that, with appropriate policy accommodation, economic activity will expand at a moderate pace, with labor market indicators moving toward levels the Committee judges consistent with its dual mandate. The Committee sees the risks to the outlook for economic activity and the labor market as nearly balanced. The Committee expects inflation to rise gradually toward 2 percent as the labor market improves further and the transitory effects of lower energy prices and other factors dissipate. The Committee continues to monitor inflation developments closely.\nTo support continued progress toward maximum employment and price stability, the Committee today reaffirmed its view that the current 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate remains appropriate. In determining how long to maintain this target range, the Committee will assess progress--both realized and expected--toward its objectives of maximum employment and 2 percent inflation. This assessment will take into account a wide range of information, including measures of labor market conditions, indicators of inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and readings on financial developments. Based on its current assessment, the Committee judges that it can be patient in beginning to normalize the stance of monetary policy. The Committee sees this guidance as consistent with its previous statement that it likely will be appropriate to maintain the 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time following the end of its asset purchase program in October, especially if projected inflation continues to run below the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal, and provided that longer-term inflation expectations remain well anchored. However, if incoming information indicates faster progress toward the Committee's employment and inflation objectives than the Committee now expects, then increases in the target range for the federal funds rate are likely to occur sooner than currently anticipated. Conversely, if progress proves slower than expected, then increases in the target range are likely to occur later than currently anticipated.\nVoting for the FOMC monetary policy action were: Janet L. Yellen, Chair; William C. Dudley, Vice Chairman; Lael Brainard; Stanley Fischer; Loretta J. Mester; Jerome H. Powell; and Daniel K. Tarullo.\nVoting against the action were Richard W. Fisher, who believed that, while the Committee should be patient in beginning to normalize monetary policy, improvement in the U.S. economic performance since October has moved forward, further than the majority of the Committee envisions, the date when it will likely be appropriate to increase the federal funds rate; Narayana Kocherlakota, who believed that the Committee's decision, in the context of ongoing low inflation and falling market-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations, created undue downside risk to the credibility of the 2 percent inflation target; and Charles I. Plosser, who believed that the statement should not stress the importance of the passage of time as a key element of its forward guidance and, given the improvement in economic conditions, should not emphasize the consistency of the current forward guidance with previous statements.",

        "raw_content": "Despite the best efforts of the federal government, lenders, builders and even realtors, the housing market is still falling short of benchmarks for normal housing activity. A recent article in the Los Angeles Times explores some of the reasons the housing market continues to struggle. One major contributing factor according to the article is the shortage of first-time home buyers. The National Association of Realtors reports that first timers represented less than 30 percent of all buyers in the last 18 months. This is the lowest percentage in 30 years. Another issue is the increase in doubled-up households. Adult children are living with their parents more than before, leaving the homes they would have otherwise purchased still sitting on the market. Market experts, however, are hopeful that as the economy improves those adult children will strike out on their own and help swing the market back in the right direction.",

        "raw_content": "It Happened in the Catskills : An Oral History in the Words of Busboys, Bellhops, Guests, Proprietors, Comedians, Agents, and Others Who Lived It\nRe-Release: Release Date: SUNY Press, March 2009, ISBN10: N/A, ISBN13: 978-1-4384-2748-5\nPrevious Printings: Harcourt Brace/Harvest Books, 1991 Hardcover, 1993 Paperback; ISBN: 0156002388;\nMadison: University of Wisconsin Press, 2004. 245 pp; ISBN 0-299-20604-1\nNew York Times: About Milton Kutscher About Irving Cohen\nINTRODUCTION TO THE 2009 EDITION OF \"IT HAPPENED IN THE CATSKILLS\"\nAlthough most of the larger Catskill hotels had become year-round vacation destinations by the 1960's with indoor swimming pools, outdoor ice skating rinks, even ski slopes padded with (when nature refused to cooperate) artificial snow, the region remains locked in memory as a summer resort. To this day, when someone pulls up a particular Catskill recollection, more often than not it's preceded by the phrase \"The summer of . . .\"\nFor us, it was the summer of 1989, a particularly poignant time as Myrna's mother died June 9th of that year. Subsequently, we threw ourselves into the work before us -- gathering data for a history of the \"Borscht Circuit\" we had contracted to write for Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. And so it was that we spent many of the days and nights of the summer of 1989 up in the \"Mountains,\" going from one hotel to another, stopping off at little bungalow colonies that were still in business, interviewing guests, proprietors, entertainers, boys in the band, tummlers, waiters, anyone with a story to tell -- and it seemed everyone we approached had a story to tell.\nIt was a helpful distraction from our loss. We became captivated by the people we spoke to, so distinctive in voice, so specific in recollection of detail, so accurate in description and evocation of time and place. Before long, we realized the story we were after was best told by them -- in their own voices, in their own words. Our job would be to transcribe the tapes, clear out the digressions and repetitions, decide what should go where, and then step back and let the narrative flow. After the book was published and a critic likened It Happened in the Catskills to \"a conversation in a living room,\" we felt we had done our job.\nIt wasn't until some years later, however, after we had become de facto \"oral historians,\" that we came to see how serendipitous our timing had been. Not only was the summer of 1989 a time when we needed to be involved in a project that would absorb our thoughts and energies, it was also a time when the story we were after was about to end. And to capture a phenomenon shortly before it disappears into the mists of memory, there may be no medium more effective than oral history.\nOf course, none of this was apparent to us during the summer of 1989. The impending demise of the 100-year-old Catskill phenomenon was not articulated, and we saw little, if any, sign of it. Hotels were packed. The legendary Irving Cohen was still seating the minions in the cavernous Concord dining room. Lillian Brown was still bringing stars on the order of Jerry Lewis up to Brown's. Mal Z. Lawrence was still killing the crowd at Kutsher's with jokes about the endless Jewish appetite. True, the number of bungalow colonies and hotels had declined over the years. The overall age of guests was older than it used to be. And unbelievably, Grossinger's, the fabled pink castle on the hill, had recently closed down, although there were new owners on the site, and plans for a bigger and better Grossinger's were already underway.\nWhen two years later, \"Catskills on Broadway,\" starring four of the best of Borscht Circuit stand-up comics, opened to an SRO crowd at the Lunt Fontanne, the audience convulsed with laughter from the moment Freddie Roman stepped onstage until Mal Z. brought the house down.\nNevertheless, through the 1990s, hotels folded, one after the other. The Concord closed mid-decade. When in 1998, Milton Kutsher, the last of the old lions who had been around from the early days, died, it was the tolling of the bell.\nToday only a few of the old palaces still stand and, for the most part, they're for sale or already sold, re-named, having taken on new identities. The region, of course, remains. It has retreats, spas, wellness resorts, many second homes. But the Catskills -- as it was to those who frequented it down the decades of the 20th century -- it's not.\nSo, the summer of 1989 had been a twilight season. At the same time, it was possibly the last season when the entire chronology of this singular sub-culture was still part of living memory. And there we were, just at the moment when it was possible to meet and talk to people who collectively had lived through the whole long run.\nThey ranged from Dave Levinson who told us about growing up at Tamarack Lodge which his parents opened the summer of 1903, to Charles Brett, a retired stockbroker, who remembered traveling with his grandmother from Brooklyn to a kochalayn in Mountain Dale by subway, ferry boat, railroad and horse-drawn buggy the summer of 1919, to Cantor Chaskele Ritter who recalled the small hotel his family went to in Parksville where his grandfather was the resident shocket (ritual slaughterer) during the summers of the 1920s, to Eddie Fisher who re-lived being \"discovered\" by Eddie Cantor at Grossinger's the summer of 1949, to Neil Sedaka who reminisced about being a piano player at a small Monticello hotel where he fell in love with (and later married) the owner's daughter the summer of 1958, to Errol Dante who remembered the night Judy Garland gave her comeback concert at the Concord the summer of 1961, to boxing promoter Irving Rudd who brought Muhammad Ali up to train at the Concord the summer of 1976, to Fred Gasthalter, owner of the Paramount in Parksville, who told us about a little old lady who had come up to his hotel this very summer of 1989 to see once again the place where she'd spent the summers of her youth: 1913 to 1917.\nThat was it. The whole geshecht (story). The entire tale from beginning to end.\nSnatched from the edge of oblivion, recounted, recorded, assembled and preserved, here -- in the words of those who lived it -- is what happened in the Catskills.\nLyme, New Hampshire 2009\nSelected for Listmania!

Despite many believing the pay-rise offered to him and his father turned his head, the 25-year-old insists the clubs ambition played a key role in his decision.\n\u201cI am extremely happy to join Paris Saint-Germain, he said. Since I arrived in Europe, the club has always been one of the most competitive and most ambitious. And the biggest challenge, what most motivated me to join my new teammates is to help the club to conquer the titles that their fans want.

        "raw_content": "Some guys have all the pain\nSome guys get all the breaks\nSome guys do nothing but complain\n\u2013 Rod Stewart\nWhen it comes to taxes, some guys definitely have all the pain and may end up doing nothing but complaining.\nHow so? Well, let\u2019s take the example of an American musician named Rob, who is a US tax resident and lives in California. Rob performs a one night only concert at the legendary Royal Albert Hall in London, UK. His compensation for the evening\u2019s performance is \u00a31,445,000, or about $2,167,500.\nThe UK employs a graduated tax rate system, which applies a 40% tax rate when income hits \u00a332,010 and then 45% when it reaches \u00a3150,000. As a result, Rob will pay \u00a3636,069, or $954,000, on his UK earnings. That works out to about 44% of his UK earnings, leaving poor Rob with only 56% of his income after taxes but still better than the living he would make out of playing pool.\nIn addition to paying taxes in the UK, Rob also needs to pay US and California tax on his UK earnings.\nBefore Rob starts crying out Maggie May-day, there is some good news because Rob can claim a foreign tax credit on his US tax return so he is not double-taxed at the federal level on this income. The bad news, however, is that the foreign tax credit does not apply to his California taxes because California is not a party to the US-UK tax treaty. So, in addition, our raspy voiced Rob will have to pay 13.3% in California taxes on his gross UK earnings. Although Rob will receive a federal deduction for the California tax he pays, this deduction does not benefit him because by reducing his federal tax he also reduces his foreign tax credit. Indeed, Rob is still looking for a Reason to Believe.\nSo, without considering expenses, Rob will pay about 61% in taxes on his earnings, bringing his net take home down to about $842,000. When you factor in Rob\u2019s expenses like first class airfare, the bill at The Savoy Hotel and agent fees, the rhythm of Rob\u2019s heart may be beating a lot more faster when he realizes his net cash take home will fall to about only 30% of what he grossed. Granted, Rob still won\u2019t need a friend to lend a helping hand.\nAs they say, Every Picture Tells A Story. In this case, the story is the first tax cut is the deepest when you are a US artist performing overseas. At Gedeon Law & CPA, we are available to assist musicians, actors and athletes with their tax planning and tax filings both in the US and in Canada.",

        "raw_content": "Genesis Health Institute is a national leader in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. With clinics located across the United States, our doctors have worked with thousands of patients to dramatically improve their quality of life and reduce their risk of getting chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.\nBioidentical hormone replacement therapy is a specialized branch of medicine that uses natural hormones to restore youthful hormone levels for both men and women. Unlike traditional hormone replacement therapy, which relies on synthetic hormones and typically only addresses deficiencies in one or two hormones, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy looks at your complete hormone profile and, based on careful individual testing, adjusts levels of all your critical hormones back to the levels you enjoyed in your twenties or thirties. Our patients typically experience a cessation of hormone-deficiency symptoms, few side effects, and often report they feel like they've discovered the \"fountain of youth.\"\nBioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women. The hormonal stages of a woman's life are well known: puberty, optimal hormone levels, perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. At each stage, a woman's hormone levels change, with profound effects on her health and well-being. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for women uses the best forms of estrogen, natural progesterones, and other steroid hormones to relieve symptoms associated with menopause and reduce the risk of disease.\nBioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men. When a man is in his twenties, his hormone levels, including testosterone, are at peak levels. Beginning as early as age thirty, however, male hormone levels begin to drop, while estrogen levels often rise. The result are wide-ranging symptoms including fatigue, depression and low mood, reduced sex drive, impotence, thinning hair, muscle loss, and even the development of secondary female characteristics. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for men uses testosterone as well as other steroid hormones to restore a man's youthful hormone levels and restore the youthful vitality he experienced in his early twenties.\nWhy Genesis Health Institute Is Different\nFounded by nationally renowned Dr. George Shanlikian, MD, the Genesis Health Institute and its staff of physicians and therapists offers a unique level of care. We are concerned with the whole patient, not just a set of numbers on a blood or saliva test. Our philosophy of care is rooted in the idea that we can change lives both externally and internally. As a result, our proven program relies on several pillars:\nBioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy. Our hormone replacement therapy programs are based on the world's most advanced blood and saliva screening to identify and then reverse hormone deficiencies. Throughout your program, you will have access to our staff of experts and your levels will be carefully monitored throughout to make sure you are receiving the full benefits of this therapy.\nA Comprehensive Eating Plan. Each of our patients is prescribed a personalized eating plan, because we can only be as healthy as the foods we eat. Our expert nutritionists will identify the optimal diet to help you lose weight, gain energy, and reduce your risk of diseases.\nA Supplement Program. Research is continuously validating the idea that certain nutrients have powerful benefits to fight free radicals, aging, and disease. Your comprehensive lifestyle plan will include personalized supplement recommendations using pharmaceutical-grade and industry-leading supplements.\nAn Exercise Plan. There is no doubt that exercise has powerful and lasting benefits. Our plans include a personalized exercise program overseen by our therapists. You will gain strength, feel better, and lose weight.\nIn the past, many people thought that the aches and pains and chronic diseases of aging were inevitable. In fact, you are not powerless against the march of time\u00e2\u20ac\u201dyou can do something now to reverse your age-related symptoms and regain your youthful vitality. Call Genesis Health Institute today to set up your initial consultation and begin your journey toward health.",

        "raw_content": "A new year, new president and new administration lie ahead, and no one knows quite what to expect. This interval between election and inauguration has been characterized by an unnatural calm; the horizons and the unknown vistas beyond are obscured by an uncertain haze. It may be that after the recent confusing presidential campaign between two out of the ordinary (and unlikely) contenders, nothing more should be expected. President Ford, a not quite positive and forceful leader, has dropped out of the news and back into obscurity at a rapid rate; President-elect Carter, his outlines still fuzzy, seems content to maintain a low profile, while carefully sidestepping controversy. Many of us who were not Carter supporters are willing to be persuaded by his performance that we were wrong.\nBehind one of the fogbanks on the horizon lies Carter's Plan for American medicine. So far as we can determine, he has not barked off from his determination to reorganize, and eventually nationalize, health care, and medicine should continue to be concerned about its future. It does seem strange, in view of Carter's apparently cautious approach in other sectors, that we don't hear about any of the leaders of medicine's various Colleges and Academies and the AMA, nor any of its recognized, intelligent public voices (people like Irvine Page of Cleveland, Mark Altschule of Boston, Michael Halberstam of Washington) being called in for consultation and advice. The President-elect's concept of health, delivery of care, and medical practice continues to be strangely influenced by an uncommon group of immature socialistic, bureaucratic, and academically oriented advisors. If there are any practical, down to earth clinical brains in the listing given out as Carter's \"medical team\" they are not readily discernible.\nMeanwhile there is some temporary encouragement in the deliberate manner of Carter's go-slow, approach; perhaps he will not be as liberal as conservatives expected, or as liberals feared. And at least, for the time being, we are not being subjected to the blatant, image-creating, publicity-conscious promotion efforts that sold us a Kennedy and New Frontier. Another Camelot we don't need.\n(c) The Bulletin of the Muscogee County (Georgia) Medical Society, Editorial, Jan 1977, Vol. XXIV No.1, p.9",

        "raw_content": "Michigan Lead and Copper Rule Changes Coming\nJennifer Read, 734-769-8898\nRita Loch-Caruso, 734-972-0202\n\u201cIn discussions of the revised rule, it is important to keep in mind that the primary objective is to protect public health. A recent emerging concern is that environmental lead exposure is associated with changes in our cells\u2019 genetic regulatory mechanisms that are passed from grandmother to daughter to granddaughter.\u201d\n~ Rita Loch-Caruso, Professor of Public Health and Director of the Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center, an NIEHS-funded center at the School of Public Health.\nThe Charles Stewart Mott Foundation recently awarded the University of Michigan a grant to facilitate compliance with the new Michigan Lead and Copper Rule (MI LCR). The effort will ensure there is accurate information widely available to municipal leaders, water utilities, community groups, and engaged citizens to understand the impact of the new rule, minimize the burden of implementation, and protect public health. The team will also provide technical support to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality as it rolls out guidance and tools for implementing the new MI LCR, so that it can be more easily adopted by water utilities. Team members hail from the Graham Sustainability Institute\u2019s Water Center, the School of Public Health, the Center for Local, State and Urban Policy in the Ford School of Public Policy, U-M Engineering, and private sector partner Safe Water Engineering.\nThe revised Michigan Lead and Copper Rule was proposed in January 2018 and went into law on June 12, 2018. The MI LCR is a state regulation that controls corrosion in Michigan drinking water supplies which, in turn, reduces the amount of lead and copper in the water. Among other provisions, the revised rule would require drinking water supplies to create a complete inventory of their lead service lines and replace them within twenty years, or according to the utility\u2019s asset management plan. The rule recognizes the need to remove lead from drinking water systems in addition to managing corrosion to prevent exposure to lead in drinking water.\nFailures of the corrosion control-only approach, such as seen in Washington, DC (2004) and more recently, and closer to home, in Flint in 2014, have prompted other cities in Michigan to take action. Lansing has already replaced its lead service lines, while Grand Rapids, has a similar program in place. Other states are working to advance lead service line replacement. Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Indiana have recent laws that remove barriers for public entities replacing lead service lines on private property, and Illinois is considering legislation to require lead service line replacement within 10 years.\nThe project will provide materials to facilitate the implementation of the MI LCR by the state, local governments and utilities. For example, the team anticipates identifying creative funding mechanisms and other feasible ways utilities can meet rule requirements. \u201cThis project is enabling us to focus on solutions to make implementation as easy as possible for utilities of all sizes and means,\u201d said Jennifer Read, Director of the Water Center and project lead.\n\u201cIn discussions of the revised rule, it is important to keep in mind that the primary objective is to protect public health,\u201d said Rita Loch-Caruso, Professor of Public health and Director of the Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center, an NIEHS-funded center at the School of Public Health. \u201cThe project will work with stakeholders to provide current and accurate information about the public health risk of lead in water. Although lead is probably the most extensively studied environmental contaminant, we continue to learn new information about lead\u2019s threats to human health. A recent emerging concern is that environmental lead exposure is associated with changes in our cells\u2019 genetic regulatory mechanisms that are passed from grandmother to daughter to granddaughter.\"\nSarah Mills, with the Center for Local, State and Urban Policy noted, \u201cUtilities and local governments are understandably concerned that these new rules will place additional strain on their budgets, which are already tight given State policies limiting their ability to generate revenue. Our team is committed to identifying feasible paths to lead line replacement, considering innovative strategies as well as both state- and local-level funding options.\"",

        "raw_content": "Chania Travel Guide - Island of Crete - Greece\nOne of the most beautiful areas of Crete is the Chania county. It is situated on the west side of the island and is the greenest one. It has pristine beaches, beautiful landscape and nature like the Samaria Gorge and the White Mountains (Lefka Ori), a picturesque town with a Venetian port and lovely villages like Sfakia and Loutro.\nTHE CITY OF CHANIA\nThe City of Chania is the capital of the Municipality and the second largest city of Crete, built over the ruins of the Minoan city Kydonia. Its area is 12.56 square kilometers with a population of 53.910 inhabitants (population census 2011). The city has two major gates: the airport in Akrotiri and Souda harbor, which is the biggest natural harbor of the Mediterranean. The city of Chania constitutes a crossroad of civilizations and continents with a long history, natural beauty, unique architecture and rich tradition. The main characteristic of the city is the Venetian port of the old city with the Egyptian lighthouse that has survived for many centuries and attracts the eye of residents and visitors.\nYour first stop upon arriving in the region should be to the Old Town of Chania. Easily one of the most beautiful towns in all of Greece, Chania is a mix of Cretan, Venetian, and Ottoman influences. It is composed of maze-like, cobbled lanes and the narrow alleys are sprinkled with beautiful Venetian buildings, elaborate churches, shops filled with traditional Greek products, and delicious tavernas serving up the epitome of Greek gastronomy. The old town\u2019s main square is called 1821 (also known as Splantzia), named after the year locals revolted against the Turks. Agios Nikolaos Church is there, too, the only church that features both a bell tower and a minaret \u2013 another proof of the diverse conquerors of Chania. The Jewish quarter (\"Evraiki\" or \"Ovraiki\") was located at the north-west of the Old Town, behind the harbor and within the borders of Topanas. The whole Topanas area is generally very picturesque, with many narrow alleys and old charming buildings, some of which have been restored as hotels, restaurants, shops and bars. This makes it a lively and colorful place especially during the warm period (April-October). In the winter, it still remains a center of activities (especially for nightlife) but in a more quiet and atmospheric way. Part of the marine area of Halepa is called Tabakaria, where a unique architectural complex of old leather processing houses is situated. The district of Koum Kapi (the Venetians had first named it \"Sabbionara\", which means \"the Gate of the Sand\", the same as \"Koum Kapi\") situated beyond the walls at the eastern part of the old town, was also one of the first places to be inhabited outside the fortification walls. Initially, it was home for the \"Halikoutes\", a group of bedouins from North Africa who had actually settled there since the last years of the Turkish occupation. Nowadays it is a developing area with many trendy cafes, bars and restaurants on its picturesque beach. And if you feel like watching the town from high above, you could always go to Koukouvaya Cafe, to have a cup of coffee along with one of the many delicious desserts and enjoy the beautiful view of Chania Town (you will find it at the Venizelos Graves). Moreover, there are many historical sites, monuments and museums you can visit in Chania city. For more information about Chania Town, as well as maps and tour guide app of Chania, you can visit Chania's Municipality page: https://www.chaniatourism.com/the-city-of-chania/chania-maps.html and https://www.chaniatourism.com/the-city-of-chania/chania-tour-guide-app.html .\nThe Samaria Gorge is also in the prefecture of Chania in southwest Crete. It was created by a small river running between the White Mountains and Mt. Volakias. There are a number of other gorges in the White Mountains. While some say that the gorge is 18 km long, this distance refers to the distance between the settlement of Omalos on the northern side of the plateau and the village of Agia Roumeli. In fact, the gorge is 16 km long, starting at an altitude of 1,250m at the northern entrance, and ending at the shores of the Libyan Sea in Agia Roumeli. The walk through Samaria National Park is 13 km long, but you have to walk another three km to Agia Roumeli from the park exit, making the hike 16 km. The most famous part of the gorge is the stretch known as the Iron Gates, where the sides of the gorge close in to a width of only four meters and soar up to a height of 500 m.\nThe gorge became a national park in 1962, particularly as a refuge for the rare kri-kri (Cretan goat), which is largely restricted to the park and an island just off the shore of Agia Marina. There are several other endemic species in the gorge and surrounding area, as well as many other species of flowers and birds.\nThe village of Samaria lies just inside the gorge. It was finally abandoned by the last remaining inhabitants in 1962 to make way for the park. The village and the gorge take their names from the village's ancient church, Ossia Maria (Saint Mary).\nA \"must\" for visitors to Crete is to complete the walk down the gorge from the Omalos plateau to Agia Roumeli on the Libyan Sea, at which point tourists sail to the nearby village of Hora Sfakion and catch a coach back to Chania. The walk takes 4-7 hours and can be strenuous, especially at the height of summer.\nLocal tourist operators provide organized tours to the Gorge. These include bus transportation from your hotel to the entrance (near Omalos village), and the bus will be waiting for you to disembark the ferry in Sfakia (Hora Sfakeon) to take you back. If you are on your own, you can make a one-day round trip from Chania or from Sougia or Paleochora (which is also a beautiful village with a large sandy beach and exquisite crystal clear water) . Note that the morning buses from Sougia and Paleochora do not operate on Sunday. The ferries leave Agia Roumeli to Chora Sfakeon (East-bound) and to Sogia/Paleochora (West-bound) at 18:00.\nThere also exists a \"lazy way\" - from Agia Roumeli to the Iron Gates (more or less an hour of non-challenging terrain) and back.\nVisits to the National park are allowed from May 1 to October 15.\nPark visiting hours are 07:00 to 15:00 daily. From 15:00 to sunset, visitors are allowed to walk a distance of only two km within the park, either from Xyloskalo or from Agia Roumeli.\nWithin the park it is strictly prohibited to camp, stay overnight, light fires, or swim in the streams of the gorge.\nBEST BEACHES OF CHANIA\nSome of the most beautiful beaches of Crete are in Chania county. A sample of the best beaches of Chania can be found below:\nFalassarna is a very popular seaside resort on the western coast of Crete, in the department of Chania in Livadi Bay. Falassarna is one of the most beautiful beaches in Crete. It is located 52 kilometers from Chania town and can be reached by car within one hour via the village of Platanos. It has a large sandy beach and all kinds of water-sports facilities, sun loungers, and parasols. The water has beautiful turquoise-like colors. There are some beach bars near the beach, as well as a small fishing harbor on the southern side. Beach parties are regularly organized at Falassarna beach, attracting thousands of young people from the surrounding area. The sunsets in Falassarna are spectacular.\nThe tropical Elafonisi beach is located near a small island of the same name, which is located opposite the village of Elafonisi. The island may be small, but the beach of Elafonisi is certainly not. Elafonisi is the second largest beach in western Crete, and from June onwards it looks like a tropical paradise beach. Elafonisi can be easily reached by car; you can also take the bus from Chania and Paleochora. You walk towards the first beach of Elafonisi. This beach is surrounded by six places where beach beds and umbrellas are available for rent. There are taverns here where you can eat and drink. The water at Elafonisi is so clear that you can see the bottom almost everywhere. It has to be noted, though, that it can get really crowded on high season, since it is very famous.\nBalos Beach is located at the small peninsula of Imeri Gramvousa. It is a protected natural area, which guarantees the quality of the natural habitats of protected flora and fauna. You will find 400 different (sea) plants, nearly 100 protected or endangered bird species, wild donkeys, the green turtle and the Mediterranean sea lobe at Gramvousa. Balos Beach is a lagoon and is located in a bowl-shaped bay. The colors of the sea water in the shallow lagoon are exotic due to the green to azure color. Nearby is a 16th century Venetian fort on the cliffs worth visiting.\nGlyka Nera beach is located on the south coast of Crete and its name means \u201csweet water beach\u201d because of the freshwater sources on the beach. Not surprisingly that there are trees on this sweet water beach. Glyka Nera beach can only be reached on foot or by boat. There are hiking trails from both Chora Sfakion and Loutro village. Along the way are a few steep cliffs, bays and chapel. Take enough drinking water! Small ferry services go from and to the tavern at Glyka Nera beach from Loutro or Chora Sfakion.\nThis beautiful sandy beach is located in the southwest of Crete near Elafonisi. It is an option for peace seekers and naturists who want to avoid the crowds of the popular earlier mentioned Elafonisi. Kedrodasos can be reached by taking the exit to Sklavopoula on your left hand (just coming from the north) just before Elafonisi. The road becomes a wide path there and you follow more or less a straight line and keep right. The beach is indicated by yellow arrows. After passing several greenhouses, you take the second exit on the right. This road ends in a parking lot. Then you take the path down towards the coast. The walk takes about ten minutes.\nStavros beach is located on the north side of the Akrotiri peninsula east of Chania. It is a sandy beach in a round bay through which a river flows, and it is known because a part of the film \u201cZorba the Greek\u201d was recorded there. One side is dominated by a high bare mountain. Next to the main beach, a bit further away, is another quieter beach. There are also the remains of an old city or old fortress carved into the rocks and an ancient Minoan cult cave that you can reach on foot.\nSeitan Limania beach is a small bay near Chania on Crete. The beach is located in an S-shaped bay on the Akrotiri peninsula, not far from the international airport. It is about 22 kilometers from Chania city (about half hour time with a car). The road to Seitan Limania beach is good, but getting there is not easy. The descent to the beach from the parking lot is over the rocks. No paved path and it requires some climbing. There are no facilities on Seitan Limania beach, so remember to bring enough drinking water and food with you.\nAspri Limni\nAspri Limni (or \"White Lake\") is one of the weirdest beaches in Crete that few people know. The beach has fine white sand and rocks and is surrounded by sharp rocks, reminding of a small whitish lake inside the sea. Fortunately, the beach is unexploited by the tourist industry and remains an untouched paradise. There is no natural shade in the area. This small secret beach is located 500m west of Chrysoskalitissa monastery and 70km southwest of Chania city. Thousands of visitors are attracted by the nearby exotic Elafonissi lagoon, but actually, nobody has heard of this magnificent neighboring place.\nFragokastelo (i.e. the castle of the Franks) is one of the most famous beaches of Crete, famous for the local Venetian castle on the beautiful beach and the legendary ghosts of Drosoulites. It is located 13km east of Hora Sfakion, 80km southeast of Chania, in a small valley south of the White Mountains. The main beach of Frangokastelo is truly magnificent, with sand and shallow turquoise waters, ideal for children. It is poorly organized and is quite busy. The only problem you may encounter is the often irritating winds coming from South, transporting the sand with power. West of the main beach you will find the long beach Vatalos and its wetland, which is sandy and has pebbles and rocks in parts, making it ideal for snorkelling. Walking 300m east from the main beach for 10 minutes, you will find the magnificent beach of Orthi Ammos, famous for the large sand dunes.\nLast but not least, Gavdos island is located in Chania county too, on the southwest of the island.\nThere are plenty of activities to do in Chania - and all over Crete. You can do diving and scuba diving, sailing, cycling, mountaineering and climbing, as well as riding, paragliding, flights with small airplanes and the water park of Limnoupolis (more info at https://www.chaniatourism.com/see-do/activities.html)",

        "raw_content": "Entrepreneurs and Eggplant\nOPINION ASI A\nMARCH 8, 2010, 2:06 P.M. ET\nA case study in how India's government is the main obstacle to economic progress.\nRisk is built into capitalism because the rewards of investment arrive in the future. Risk usually comes from the unknown responses of customers and competitors in the marketplace. But in India, the greatest uncertainty still emanates from government and its overweening regulators, despite 18 years of economic reform. If anything holds India back from realizing its true potential, it is weak institutions of governance.\nNowhere is this heartbreaking truth clearer than in the tale of Maharashtra Hybrid Seeds Company. Founded in 1964 by Badrinarayan Ramulal Barwale (who received the World Food Prize in 1998) Mahyco, as it is known, has done pioneering work in hybrid seeds. Today Monsanto holds a 26% stake in the company. Having produced hybrids of cotton, sorghum, sunflower and wheat, it is currently researching improvements to more than 30 crops.\nThe development of genetically modified eggplant, known locally as Bt Brinjal, was the latest in this string of innovations. Mahyco's scientists toiled for years to figure out how to kill the pest, Brinjal Fruit and Shoot Borer, which wipes out 30% to 40% of India's annual crop. Mahyco conducted 25 environmental biosafety studies supervised by independent and government agencies to ensure that its product had the same nutritional value and is compositionally identical to regular eggplant; finally, it did rigorous field trials in collaboration with two Indian agricultural universities.\nIn October 2009, after nine years of trials, their invention was approved by the government's Genetic Engineering Approval Committee, which stated Mahyco's product is \"effective in controlling target pests, safe to the environment, non-toxic as determined by toxicity and animal feeding tests, nonallergenic and has potential to benefit the farmers.\" Top Indian and international scientists hailed the innovation, hoping that it would open the door for further research and trials on the more popular foods like rice and wheat.\nYet on Feb. 9, Environment and Forests Minister Jairam Ramesh stopped the seed's introduction. He privileged the concerns of environmental groups, who had opposed Bt Brinjal on grounds of potential human and animal health and biodiversity. In placing an indefinite \"moratorium\" on the product, Mr. Ramesh adopted the precautionary principle, citing the need for more safety data and an absence of any \"overriding urgency.\" He ignored the government's own regulatory process, the committee of distinguished scientists who had approved Bt Brinjal after nine years of intensive trials, and he undermined the trust between the citizen and the state.\nIt is a testimony to our argumentative democracy that the story did not end there. Mr. Ramesh's decision led to a huge outcry among India's scientists and farmers. Last month, Agricultural Minister Sharad Pawar wrote to the prime minister that biotech innovations that withstood regulatory scrutiny \"should be vigorously encouraged.\" Any hesitation, he wrote, could hamper research in India on transgenic varieties of potato, rice, mustard, tomato, groundnut, chickpea and pigeon pea currently underway. He added: \"Absence of clarity on some of these issues could jeopardize R&D not only by the private seed companies but also by public institutions.\"\nIn other words, India cannot attract investment if entrepreneurs cannot predict how the government will react. The telecommunications ministry has wavered for years on whether or not to sell 3G spectrum, and how to do it. Equally disheartening is the recent experience of private entrepreneurs in dealing with the railways ministry. Encouraged to invest in freight movement on the promise of a level playing field, they have discovered formidable hurdles placed in their way by the government's monopoly railway company. Similar stories abound in the airline industry, financial services and retail, too.\nEntrepreneurs are used to risk\u2014in fact, they seem to thrive on it. What really throws a spanner in the works of capitalism, however, is uncertainty. What's the difference? As the late great economist Frank Knight wrote in \"Risk, Uncertainty and Profit,\" risk can be quantified using statistical analysis, yielding probabilities that guide efficient decision-making. Uncertainty, on the other hand, cannot be measured and therefore presents a true barrier to business. The capricious decisions coming out of Delhi are creating uncertainty.\nIndian civilization has long understood the role of government in mitigating risk. The theme of risk even appears as far back as 2,000 years ago in the ancient Indian epic the Mahabharata, where a famous game of dice is the metaphor for the uncertain, vulnerable human life. The epic looks to the ruler and his dharma to bring predictability in the lives of human beings.\nIn the same way, it is the duty of governments to bring predictability into the uncertain lives of investors and business people. Entrepreneurs face more than enough insecurity in the marketplace. If India's government does not ensure a reliable regulatory environment or if allows ministers to interfere in established institutional mechanisms, who will take courageous, long-term risks? Who will invent the seed that sparks a second green revolution? No wonder investors continue to believe that authoritarian China is more investor friendly than democratic India.\nMr. Das, former CEO of Procter & Gamble India, is the author of \"The Difficulty of Being Good\" (Penguin, 2009) to be published in the U.S. in September by Oxford University Press.\nThis reminds me of our\nSubmitted by Venu.K (not verified) on March 11, 2010 - 06:27.\nThis reminds me of our President addressing the nation on the Republic day asking us to get ready for the next green revolution. Like anybody me too believed the importance of the message in the current context of Food crisis But, the power is vested with them for the decisions to make. This may effect the investments to India as one cannot expect what decision will come and more importantly with no time frame for the decisions.\n\"it is the duty of\nSubmitted by narayan (not verified) on March 20, 2010 - 09:16.\n\"it is the duty of governments to bring predictability into the uncertain lives of investors and business people.\" True. But then the government itself is run by politicians with uncertain future and prospects of untold gains (money/votes) if they can manipulate certain outcomes. Both BT brinjal and Telecom Spectrum issues were said to be manipulated by powerful lobbies. In case of telecom sector, the government turned a promised monopoly into duopoly and then open market; ruining the market-estimates of the top bidders. The common man would never know the string-pulling that went on behind the scenes.\nNice read. In my opinion,\nSubmitted by Rupen Sharma (not verified) on March 29, 2010 - 23:26.\nIn my opinion, the current-day Indian psyche is more averse to taking risks than ancient India. For example, after visiting the Museum of Toilets in Delhi, the curator explained to me the inventive nature of ancient India that led to the creation of the modern-day sewer system. Hence, I wonder whether we are getting more modern or simply trying to get back to the level of modernization that created this great nation.\nThe problem with the Indian leadership is that Entrepreneurship is not scene has a specialized skill. Even in \"Ivy\" league colleges like FMS, Entrepreneurship is not an elective in the final year of MBA. There needs to be a push from the top and then supporting elements need to align. This is a lot easier in an organization than a country. But, it can be done!\nI also hate the fact that someone who has exerted so much energy in inventing something of value has to let go of it, because of what seems like - a whim! I hope he has a Braveheart.\n- Rupen\nP.S.: I have just started reading \"The Difficulty of being Good.\" It's so far been a learning experience considering I've never read any literature on the Mahabharata...well except the Gita!\nSir, these are issues\nSubmitted by Kunal (not verified) on April 12, 2010 - 01:04.\nSir, these are issues concerned for entrepreneurs but wht about students like me who are struggling to get a General Seat in some good college, this quota are hindering growth of any individual and filling their vote bank. Recently, 4% quota awarded to Muslims in AP then it will get spread across the country. If India gov will go like these then intellectual crisis will going to happen. there are lots of hidden issues to come up and get trigger bt our great journo people are beating around bush in showcasing few people, we heard some rift between Sonia and Manmohan on approving less subsidy in food bil, Nuclear Liability and Sharam-al-Sheikh issues.The ruling govt will talk a lot but doing doing only for their vote bank.\nI agree with author.Really\nSubmitted by chandra (not verified) on April 23, 2010 - 01:34.\nI agree with author.Really thought provoking.Inspiration.\nFor an Indian like me who is like me working in Singpaore, these kinds of news really painful. Often,i reading these kind of news in the local newspaper besides regular mention of India & China's leading role in the World in comming years.\nAnyway,I have high regard for Minister Ramesh.\nHope,a solution for Bt.Brijal soon.Ofcouse,as well aspiring entrepreneurs as well.\nThanks you for the articel.Keep thinking and writing.\nI agree with Mr. Das that our\nSubmitted by Abanindra Sircar (not verified) on October 14, 2010 - 03:55.\nI agree with Mr. Das that our government is the biggest obstacle in India's progress but I completely disagree with the example that he has chosen. Monsanto is known for its fraudulent activities for which it has been thrown out of many countries. In a corrupt country like India, it is very easy to manipulate people and institutions for a report or a certificate. Therefore, to rely on such findings and allow the introduction of these seeds could be fatal. Also, there are major problems with the way these seeds are introduced in the market creating monopolies. Moreover, there are many varieties of brinjals available in the market today which do not have any of the problems for which Monsanto apparently spent nine years in research. We must also keep in mind that brinjal is neither a staple nor a very important vegetable for whose seeds we need to pay a monopoly its monopoly price for ever and ever. Considering that Mr. Das is a very important opinion-maker in India, I do hope he will exercise greater caution before writing up something like this.",

The ones that aren't feature hamsters for a very small period of time.\nHamsters have appeared in:\nThe Simpsons: Something about a lab experiment done by Lisa, comparing the intelligence of Bart to the intelligence of a hamster. The hamster won.\nKids in the Hall: Two pet hamsters of little kid Gavin.\nLate Night with Conan O'Brien: References made to hamsters quite often. The best that I can think of: Andy Richter, the sidekick, brought a hamster up in a blimp to see if it would survive the altitude. It did.\nThe Wonder Years: A hamster was sucked up in a vacuum cleaner.\nThe Ren & Stimpy Show:\nDear Dr Stupid,\nI've got a pet hamster called Dennis. When I come home from school Dennis is always fast asleep in his little house. It's only at night after I've gone to bed that Dennis comes out, then he climbs into his wheel and starts to trundle around in it for hours.\nGracie Banks, London.\nWhat you have here, Gracie is a very rare hamster called the Austrian Rotation Hamster. It's a little known fact that at night the planet Earth starts to slow down. This is because the planet is solar-powered and after eight hours of nighttime the Earth is in danger of stopping completely. So every night after the sun goes down, the Austrian Rotation Hamster wakes up and starts to run around in its wheel. The combined energy produced by these hamster wheels all over the world is enough to keep the Earth spinning all night long!\nWeird Al Yankovic: Weird Al Yankovic has a song on his latest album about his pet \"Harvey the wonder Hamster\". Also an earlier album of his has a song called \"Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars\".\nBrady Bunch: There was an episode of the Brady Bunch wherein the boys have a hamster named Henrietta in their room. (Not to be confused with the episode wherein Myron the science project mouse gets killed due to one of girls' practical jokes on Alice the maid.)\nOnce upon a Hamster: On the Animal Planet is a great show called \"Once upon a Hamster\". There is no violence, and Hammy, the main character, which is a hamster, doesn't get hurt. His friends include Martha Mouse, GP the guinia pig, Turtle, Toad, and a whole bunch of other friends. They teach kids good values while having fun!\nHamtaro: In 1999, Tottoko Hamutaro - a popular Japanese children's book - was made into an anime (Japanese for \"cartoon\"). The hero of this cartoon is an orange and white hamster named Hamutaro. The show recently hit US and Canadian shores as simply \"Hamtaro.\" The premise is of a fifth-grader named Laura (or in the original version, Ryoko) Haruna moving to a new town. Unbeknownst to her, as she made friends, so did her pet hamster, Hamtaro. After their owners go to school, Hamtaro and his hamster friends, called \"the Ham-Hams,\" help people and go on little adventures always home right before their owners so as not to get caught.

My boss had a very interesting method of giving decisions on files which I used to put up to him . These files were proposals for placing Colonels in Command appointments and needed a lot of analysis and comparisons of merits of the candidates under consideration for the General to make a decision .\nThe method followed by the General was if he agreed with my recommendation , he will send the file back duly approved . If he did not agree , he will not write \u201d Not approved \u201d and instead write on the file \u201d Please discuss \u201d . He will call me for a chat over a cup of coffee and ask me first to substantiate my arguments on which I made the recommendation . He will listen carefully and will play the Devil\u2019s Advocate till such time either I agree with his point of view and change my recommendation or He agrees with my recommendations and approve the same .\nThe general told me he is doing this because either of us would have missed some point in preparing and reviewing the file when it is prepared and sent to him . But , if we discuss cases where there is a disagreement , it clears the issue or enables better understanding of each others \u2018 point of view .\nThis was a great learning experience for me !!.\nThe Identity Of A Leader.\nPublished on January 18, 2008 in Leadership. 3 Comments Tags: coaching, followership, Leadership, Learning Leader, learning to be a leader, legacy.\nThere are as many books on leadership as there are recognized leaders in this world, each calling upon the emerging leaders to follow a particular path. From the age old wisdom of saints, great philosophers and thinkers to the modern management gurus, we have a variety of leadership recipe to cook, serve and create a \u201cfollowership\u201d. As a life time student of leadership studies, I have been always fascinated by the rich and varied menu available to any practicing leader to understand, appreciate, assimilate and emulate such great success stories in their own walks of work and life. How does a budding leader go about doing this?\nA \u201cLeader in Being\u201d looks around first to his immediate environment for support. Some of them are blessed with a family lineage and legacy. We have many such good examples from old stories of successful kingdoms, family run businesses, political dynasties and generations of entrepreneurs. Right from the days of the great epics, there is also evidence of such environmental sensitization supplemented by professional coaching. Experts in the form of a \u201cRajguru\u201d or counselors in a king\u2019s court or in more recent times, mentors or coaches discharge such responsibilities with great finesse and they get noticed world over for bringing up their progeny. We have such examples in the field of sports, entertainment and adventure pursuits as well.\nA third step in the learning process is when a leader learns from his team. In this context, every human interaction of a leader and by a leader is a unique learning experience for the leader as well as those being led. How one benefits out of such distinguishes the successful leader from the \u201calso ran types\u201d. A leader who is open to learn from his environment, his peers, his mentors and coaches and above all from his team stands a good chance to succeed in his mission and life and is likely to leave a legacy worth emulating by others.\nA \u201cLearning Leader\u201d can travel only up to a certain extent in his leadership journey. In order to leave a legacy, he or she needs to leave a \u201cfootprint\u201d behind when they leave the scene.\nThe quality of such a foot print will depend on the contribution made by the leader and the difference he or she has been able to make in the lives of those with whom they have interacted with in their pursuit of leadership. Furthermore, has the leader created a unique identity for oneself will make the transference of legacy very interesting. In modern day workplace with its rich tapestry of processes, protocols, systems and technology, there is a great challenge for leaders to create an \u201cidentity\u201d for oneself which distinguishes them from the crowd. This may not necessarily involve heroic deeds or acts of valor, but small acts done with empathy, compassion, understanding and an application of one\u2019s own belief systems. A successful leader assimilates and synthesizes all his experiences and learning and carves out a niche for himself when practicing the art of leadership. This and this step alone will help a leader create a distinct identity for himself or herself in their work life.\nIn order to achieve and excel in this pursuit, a leader needs to first clear all his inhibitions, prejudices and mindsets, be open to learn from anyone and subordinate his or her personal interests in favor of the larger interest of the community he or she is privileged to lead. A passionate determination combined with demonstrated humility will go a long way in achieving a unique leader identity in the modern day corporate arena. When the leaders are at their personal best, they challenge the process, inspire a shared vision, enable others to act, model the way and encourage the heart.\nThis is true leadership.",

        "raw_content": "Cushing's Syndrome: Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment\nCushing's syndrome occurs when levels of glucocorticoids increase in the adrenal cortex.The disease is most common in women.The most common reason that causes the disease, is the enhanced production of pituitary ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), which affects the activity of the adrenal cortex and increases the level of hormones.Often intense release of adrenocorticotropic hormone triggered by a pituitary tumor, and in some cases, and tumors of other organs.The disease can develop when taking high doses of steroid medications containing cortisone or funds, as part of which there is ACTH (used to reduce immune activity in organ transplants).\nCushing's Syndrome: Symptoms\ngeneral health and gender influence the symptoms of the disease.Common symptoms of this disease are:\nrapid weight gain.Increased body fat on the face, and especially in the upper part of the back;\nstriae (stretch marks) on the stomach, chest, arms and thighs;\nbruising, thinning of the skin;\npoorly healing wounds;\nprotracted process of recovery after acute infectious diseases;\nweakness, fatigue;\nanxiety, insomnia;\nexcessive emotionality;\nloss of memory and mental abilities;\nwomen - delayed menstrual cycle;\nglucose intolerance, which leads to diabetes;\nCushing's syndrome: diagnosis\npreliminary diagnosis can be made based on the character of the disease.For accurate diagnosis requires more thorough research in which will identify the causes of the Cushing's syndrome.For this it is necessary to analyze and determine the urinary cortisol levels.Further, the study involves testing the patient using deksametanozonovogo test in which the patient uses inside 2 c.dexamethasone, and 9 hours, measure the level of cortisol in the plasma.\nto determine the causes that could cause Cushing's syndrome, measured by the level of ACTH.Thus, elevated levels of the hormone may indicate dysfunction of the adrenal glands, and very high - about pituitary disorders.\nCushing's Syndrome: Treatment\nmost common and effective treatment of this syndrome is selective transsphenoidal prostatectomy.If the studies failed to find the exact location of a tumor of the pituitary gland, performed surgical intervention.This method can not be used if the patient has a very severe form of disease or are somatic pathology.\nAnother method of treatment is the destruction of the adrenal glands.By introducing drugs skleroziriruyuschih manages to get rid of hyperplastic agents.The procedure is carried out in the application of ultrasound and computerized tomography.\nThere is also a method for the treatment of Cushing's syndrome as proton therapy.This method is used if reliable methods of pituitary tumors is not.It is also possible to treat this disease medication method.In this case, the means used to inhibit the production of ACTH.It also involves symptomatic therapy aimed at the treatment of neuroses, diabetes, osteoporosis.In some cases, it may be applied a method of radiotherapy.Cushing's syndrome involves receiving sedative drugs, bisphosphonates, vitamins and other drugs.The disease can be treated quite well with the beginning of the therapy the symptoms gradually disappear.\nIncreased thyroid-stimulating hormone: what says too high?\nVaricose veins: the best treatment - prevention!\nAttacks of epilepsy in dogs: causes, symptoms, diagnosis\nDangerous diseases, measles: the refusal of vaccination and its consequences\n\"Good Giant\", \"Ukrainian Gulliver\" and the tallest man in the world\nThe gene - what's that?\nCan I use a solarium nursing mother and a way of tanning is the most schyadyaschim?\nThe drug \"Faringosept\" for children and adults",

        "raw_content": "Red Fort Complex (Delhi)\nAlso known as Lal Qila is a palace fort built in the 17th century by Shahjahan (1628\u201358), the fifth Mughal Emperor as part of his new capital city of Shahjahanabad. Located to the north of Delhi.\nQutub Minar and it's Monuments\nIt is a complex with the Qutub Minar as the centre piece, which is a red sandstone tower of 72.5 metres (238 ft) height with a base of 14.32 metres (47.0 ft) reducing to 2.75 metres (9.0 ft) diameter at the top. Built in the beginning of the 13th century.\nHumayun's Tomb (Delhi)\nThe first tomb built with several innovations, set at the centre of luxurious gardens with water channels, was the precursor monument to the Taj Mahal (built a century later). It was built in 1570.\nAgra Fort (Uttar Pradesh)\nIt is also known as the Red Fort of Agra, which represented Mughal opulence and power as the centre piece of their empire was inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1982, as a cultural monument. The fortress located on the right bank of the Yamuna River, built in red sandstone, covering a length of 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) and surrounded by a moat, encloses several palaces, towers and mosques. These were built from 16th century onwards until early 18th century, starting with Emperor Akbar's reign in the 16th century to that of Aurangzeb in the 18th century.\nLiterally \"the City of Victory\", was built during the second half of the 16th century by the Mughal Emperor Akbar (1556\u20131605). It was the capital of the Empire and seat of the grand Mughal court, but only for 14 years. Despite bearing exceptional testimony to the Mughal civilization at the end of the 16th century, it had to be abandoned due to the twin reasons of lack of water and unrest in north-west India, leading the Emperor to shift the capital to Lahore.\nTaj Mahal (Uttar Pradesh)\nOne of the Seven Wonders of the World, it is a mausoleum \u2013 a funerary mosque. It was built by Emperor Shahjahan in memory of his third wife Begum Mumtaz Mahal who had died in 1631. It is a large edifice made in white marble in typical Mughal architecture, a style that combines elements from Persian, Islamic and Indian architectural styles.\nSome of the people argue that Taj Mahal was Tejomahalaya ( Lord Shiva Temple and a Hindu Scientific and Cultural Complex). It was destroyed and turned into a grave by Shahjahan. There's strong evidence pertaining to this aspect including Vedic Architecture inside the Mahal. The term 'Mahal' was never coined in Islamic Literature. It is taken from Sanskrit Word \"Mahaalaya - Huge Temple Complex\". (Reference: http://www.stephen-knapp.com/was_the_taj_mahal_a_vedic_temple.htm)\nKhajuraho Group of Monuments (Madhya Pradesh)\nThis group is attributed to the Chandela dynasty which, under sovereignty of Gurjar Pratihars reached its glory between 950 AD and 1050 AD. The ensemble of monuments that have survived belong to the Hindu and Jain Religious practices with striking fusion of sculpture and architecture; the best example of this outstanding feature is seen in the Kandariya Temple . Of the 85 temples built, only 22 temples have survived in an area of 6sqkm, which represents the Chandela period of the 10th century.\nUdaipur is said to be India 's most romantic city, and it really is true! Who could resist the allure of its enchanting old mansions, beautiful gardens, intricate temples, and grand palaces overlooking expansive shimmering lakes. The City Palace , which stretches along the eastern shore of Lake Pichola , leaves visitors spellbound. The way it has been constructed is exquisite, with Rajput military architecture and Mughal style decorative techniques both combined together. The Mewar royal family still lives in a part of it too!\nJaisalmer is often referred to as being straight out of a romantic Arabian Nights fable. It's a cliche, but how better to describe this remarkable sandstone city that rises magically from the sand dunes of the Rajasthan desert? Jaisalmer's mesmerizing ancient fort, built in 1156, is perched high on a pedestal overlooking the city. Inside, the fort is vibrant and evocative. It houses five palaces, several temples, and some exquisite havelis (mansions), as well as shops and other residences. Staying inside the fort is an experience not to be forgotten.\nOne of the top 5 spiritual destinations in India, Varanasi is a sacred Hindu city with a very old history. Known as the city of Lord Shiva , the god of creation and destruction, it\u2019s believed that anyone who dies here will be liberated from the cycle of reincarnation. Even a wash in the Ganges River is said to cleanse away all sins. The fascinating thing about this mystical city is that its rituals are revealed openly along the many riverside ghats. Staying at a hotel overlooking the Ganges is highly recommended and memorable.",

ICA was created to give their projects a uniqe setting and for several practical reasons in order to obtain necessary permissions.\nOn February 6 and 7, ICA invited to archaeological excavations on two different sites in London. One group of 30 people, including the composer Cornelius Cardew and the artist Gustav Metzger, was brought to a closed factory for Shepherd's Bush garden sculptures. After the first layer of brick was removed, fragments of animals, ornaments and torsos appeared, the contemporary archaeologists discovered that the area was full of ice-capped plaster statues. After three hours of digging, each of the participants was asked to submit five items to be included in an exhibition. A second archaeological group consisted of students from Watford Technical College, who stuck a needle through a map of London. The needle's point of reference turned out to be a relocated parlor garden where students were assigned to collect items they found interesting. The findings were assembled, marked and displayed at an exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.",

        "title": "Hope Lutheran Church | A Message from Pastor",
        "raw_content": "A MESSAGE FROM PASTOR OSWALD\nFrom 1987-1996, the American Express Card ad campaign pronounced that \u201cMembership has its privileges!\u201d The elitist appeal of the slogan tried to sidestep something that has spread through the culture \u2013 a deep distrust of institutions with reluctance to become members of them.\nPolls and surveys confirm what I and many others have observed: That confidence in institutions continues to drop. Public confidence has spiraled downward now for several decades as negative impressions accumulate about banks, schools, government institutions such as Congress and the Supreme Court, news organizations, hospitals, police, etc. Some have surmised that Donald Trump, the ultimate \u201coutsider\u201d of Washington, was helped to victory by this wave of disillusionment. Interestingly, the military continues to hold steadily to first place in public support among institutions, but amid ongoing accidents and scandals, it may be a question of \u201cwhen\u201d rather than \u201cif\u201d the defense of the Department of Defense begins to weaken.\nIt should not surprise anyone that churches and organized religion are among the leaders in institutions that have lost public confidence. Not only have scandals among religious leaders devastated their reputations, our culture has increasingly perceived religion and spirituality as \u201cpersonal\u201d matters. Religious choices have exploded for people as protestant groups continue to divide, down to the present popularity of \u201cnon-denominational\u201d churches in which, ironically, every congregation is a denomination unto itself. Add to this the availability of traditionally non-western religions in western cultures, and the average American is confronted by so many options for religion that it seems impossible to sort them out. It is only a small leap from that situation to the conclusion (a wrong conclusion unfortunately) that religion is a personal matter. \u201cWhat would be the most useful to me?\u201d asks the average American. Religion becomes a matter of personal utility, what makes sense in my life. As that happens, loyalty to, and the importance of any religious institution decline.\nConsequently, when I was a chaplain exposed to 1000\u2019s of people outside of my faith, I often engaged in conversations about religion in which someone would pronounce to me, \u201cI\u2019m spiritual, just not religious.\u201d This was often accompanied by a mildly more intense stare with a pause in the dialogue as the speaker waited for me to be shaken by having heard something they considered quite profound, not knowing that I had heard it countless times before. What the speaker meant by that statement was that he or she had a personally spiritual dimension of life, beliefs and opinions about \u201cGod\u201d and the invisible realms, perhaps prone to personal prayer, perhaps even attending assorted public worship services, but without any kind of permanent commitment to religious institutions or systems. It is smorgasbord religion. Fill your plate with what tastes good, selecting from a broad menu, and free to disregard anything unappealing. Each of you has family or friends who are exactly like this.\nI want to make two observations about this. Such spirituality is idolatry; and membership in a religious institution (namely, a local church) is not optional for a follower of Christ. SPIRITUALITY IS FUNDAMENTALLY IDOLATRY. When Eve was tempted by the serpent in the Garden of Eden, she succumbed to its proposal that if she ate of the fruit, she would be like God, knowing good and evil. Ah, to be like God where I make the conclusions about what is right and what is wrong. Therein is the root of all our sin. The first commandment in which I am told \u201cYou shall have no other Gods\u201d is most frequently broken when I make myself into a God by thinking I can decide what I will do or not do, what I will believe or not believe, what is true or not true, thank you very much. Rather than harkening to what God has said, we put ourselves in the place of God and feel we can make up our own minds. Anyone who has ever said \u201cI think God /I don\u2019t think God would _______ (fill in the blank with anything)\u201d is guilty of this. It does not matter what we think. It only matters what God has revealed.\nI observed medical professionals incorporate \u201cspirituality\u201d into discussions of comprehensive wellness. Evidently there is clear data to prove that people with a transcendental dimension to life and/or participation in religious community life enjoy a variety of benefits in their health and well-being. Now if that fact moves some people one step closer to Christ\u2019s holy church, I rejoice, but I am not fuzzy about the fact that such data pertains to a broad range of spirituality and not narrowly to Christian discipleship. At the last judgment, God will not ask whether we enjoyed sociological or existential benefits from religion as we chose to engage it, but He will ask whether we have believed upon His only Son with all that that entails. MEMBERSHIP IS NOT AN OPTION.\nThe scriptures describe membership somewhat differently than we usually mean it today. \u201cNow you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.\u201d I Cor. 12:27 It is talking about our inherent membership in the invisible church, that is, the collection of all those who believe upon Christ. This is invisible because unlike an institution (what we call the \u201cvisible\u201d church), we cannot see into anyone\u2019s heart to know definitively who all those members are. (See articles VII and VIII of the Augsburg Confession). BUT does the Bible say anything about becoming a \u201cmember\u201d of a local church? The answer is that directly speaking, it does not. So then what is so special about membership? Isn\u2019t that just a more modern development?\nOne would not expect a modern concept of membership to be explicit in the New Testament because they had a different context. Without the plurality of Christian beliefs which exist today, a local church in New Testament times consisted of all of Christ\u2019s disciples in that locale, often meeting in a home, and with a decisive admission to the fellowship through baptism. Yet I claim that membership to a local church congregation is not an option. Why can\u2019t someone just attend church without ever joining? After all, where in the Bible do we find voters\u2019 meetings, offering envelopes, a church constitution, and all of those other things associated with membership?\nI believe that we cannot be biblically Christian without joining a local church and these are the reasons why \u2013 spiritual submission and church discipline. The scriptures are clear that God has appointed spiritual leaders over us. Among other places, this is clearly taught in passages like Hebrews 13:17. \u201cObey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.\u201d Without a formal commitment to a local church such as occurs through membership, which spiritual leaders would we obey? Any we choose? That is not obedience. A commitment is required to formally establish that relationship. Commitment is another idea that is culturally out of vogue. But what would you think of a man and woman that merely live together without the commitment of marriage? The obligations of spouses with respect to one another could never apply to them since the relationship is never formalized. Of course one could argue that they might voluntarily honor those obligations, but an obligation that is only voluntary is not really an obligation.\nSecondly, the church has been charged to exercise discipline. The story of the Corinthian man who was sleeping with his stepmother (I Cor. 5 and 2 Cor. 2) illustrates the requirements of the church toward those in unrepentant sin. There is much more I might teach about church discipline. Christianity Today reported results of a recent survey in which significant numbers of churches admit that they do not even practice it. Yet my single point here is to show that the possibility of church discipline can only exist where there is a visible, institutional church with formalized membership which defines those that are to be subject to the discipline.\nIt is impossible to be faithful to what the Bible teaches about these two matters, spiritual authority and church discipline, apart from the formal commitment of membership in the church: But if you have friends or relatives who are reluctant to become members, these arguments, though compellingly true, are not likely to move most people. So I also remind all that there is another wonderful thing about membership, something to celebrate. Membership defines who we are and constitutes part of our public confession! If I were a member of the Communist Party, perhaps I might not attend meetings, or I may even publicly disavow its philosophy, but in the end, you would be right to question why, then, I remain a member. Membership invariably defines me publicly, for better or for worse.\nWhen a new member stands up and commits to Hope Lutheran Church, it is a form of public confession. That person tells the world that \u201cthese are my people; what they believe is what I believe; where they stand is where I stand.\u201d This is outrageously joyful and empowering in today\u2019s world where most people never rise to anything so defining. In a world where most are in a search for some kind of public identity, I never wonder who I am. I am, confidently and joyfully, a follower of Christ as He is revealed in God\u2019s Word, the Bible, which is rightly understood through the Lutheran Confessions, the Book of Concord! Here I stand, I can do no other!\nPastor Tim Oswald\nPastor Oswald intends a formal acceptance of new members sometime early this Fall. Anyone interested in membership should contact him ASAP. Members of other Lutheran Churches- Missouri Synod, have already been instructed in what the church believes and become members by transfer. Others can obtain instruction from Pastor Oswald in the teachings of the church. He can customize this based upon how much background a prospective member already has. These then become members by public confession of faith.",

        "raw_content": "In the News: A Lesson in Why You Should Shop Around for a Mortgage\nHome borrowers got a reminder Thursday that the mortgage process remains a potential minefield. A nationwide mortgage firm accused of paying employees bonuses to steer borrowers into less-favorable mortgage terms has agreed to pay $13 million in penalties to settle the charges, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced Thursday.\nUtah-based Castle & Cooke was accused of paying quarterly bonuses to employees that ranged from $6,100 to $8,700, based on their ability to get borrowers to accept higher interest rates than they qualified for. Such bonuses, which create perverse incentives that work against consumers, were banned by the Federal Reserve in a regulation that took effect in 2011. The CFPB enforces that regulation, and this is the first legal action it has taken in accusing a firm for breaking the rule.\n\u201cWe are taking action against the type of practices that precipitated the financial crisis,\u201d said CFPB Director Richard Cordray when the suit was filed. \u201cConsumers should be able to get a mortgage without worrying about how the financial incentives of their loan officers may cause them to pay higher rates than they actually qualify for.\u201d\nCastle & Cooke admitted no wrongdoing in a statement issued to Credit.com, saying it was \u201ccommitted to legal and regulatory compliance.\u201d A non-bank lender, Castle & Cooke originated $1.3 billion in loans during 2012, operating in 22 states, including California, Arizona, Colorado and Texas.\nBonus Plans in Question: Before the rule took effect, it was common for brokers and lenders to grant sales staff a per-loan bonus each time a borrower was steered towards a loan with higher rates, an arrangement sometimes called a yield-spread premium. Castle & Cooke was not accused of that, but rather tying quarterly bonuses to more profitable loans. According to the CFPB lawsuit, an estimated 1,100 bonuses were paid to 215 loan officers.\n\u201c(The firm) developed and implemented a scheme by which the company would pay quarterly bonuses to loan officers in amounts that varied based on the interest rates of the loans they originated-the higher the interest rates of the loans closed by a loan officer during the quarter, the higher the loan officer\u2019s quarterly bonus,\u201d the lawsuit said.\nThe lawsuit also accused the financial institution of not keeping proper records about the bonus program. \u201cThe company does not refer to the quarterly bonus plan in any written policies (and) has failed to maintain a written policy explaining the method (an executive) uses to calculate the amount of the loan officers\u2019 quarterly bonuses,\u201d the suit alleged.\nCastle & Cooke has agreed to pay $9 million into a restitution fund. Approximately 9,400 borrowers will receive compensation for mortgage overpayments. The firm will also pay a $4 million civil penalty.\n\u201cWith today\u2019s resolution we are pleased that we can now focus our undivided attention on our core mission: extending high quality loans and superior service to borrowers,\u201d the firm said in an email. \u201cThe regulations are complex, but we are committed to legal and regulatory compliance in our lending.\u201d\nRed Tape Wrestling Tips: Several steps in the mortgage process may involve commissions that create the potential for perverse incentives which work against consumers. The only way for buyers to truly protect themselves is to engage in competitive bidding. Buyers should always get Good Faith Estimates from at least three lenders/mortgage brokers, and compare the total loan coasts. While new federal regulations ban yield-spread premiums and other bonuses paid based on selling higher-cost loans, other financial arrangements between third parties can add unnecessary costs to a mortgage. Comparison shopping is the best defense.\nSource: http://realestate.aol.com/blog/2013/11/08/in-the-news-a-lesson-in-why-you-should-shop-around-for-a-mortga/",

        "raw_content": "International Research and Review: Journal of Phi Beta Delta Honor Society for International Scholars\nIn this IHEC Blog post I thought I would inform readers that the Phi Beta Delta Honor Society for International Scholars has started publishing their journal again in the form of International Research and Review: Journal of Phi Beta Delta Honor Society for International Scholars. If you have not heard of Phi Beta Delta before you can learn more via their website and, if you are on a university or college campus, consider forming your own institutional chapter (currently in eight countries)! I think IHEC Blog readers will find Phi Beta Delta to be a great organization and something worthy of considering!\nLed by the efforts of Michael Smithee, Director of Publications and Editor, International Research and Review aims to provide \u201ca forum for scholars and educators to engage in a multi-disciplinary exchange of ideas, to address topics of mutual concern, and to advocate for policies that enhance the international dimension of higher education. Articles should focus on studies and systematic analyses that employ qualitative, quantitative, a mixture of both methods, and theoretical methodologies from an international scope. Both pedagogical and andragogical perspectives in teaching and learning are welcome.\u201d International Research and Review will be web based and is being indexed by EBSCO, which means it will be available in academic and other libraries. It is anticipated that one to two issues will be published yearly. Thus, please consider this a call for papers.\nIHEC Blog readers familiar with Phi Beta Delta may recall that they previously published the journal International Review which was interrupted in 2003 due to the cost of printing and dissemination. Phi Beta Delta has scanned and loaded all of the articles from each of the twelve volumes of International Review, 1990-2002, on their website!\nThe Phi Beta Delta Headquarters Office moved to the campus of California State University San Bernardino and is now under the leadership of Executive Director, Dr. Rueyling Chuang.\nLabels: International Education Journal, Journals, Phi Beta Delta\nI contacted my college\u2019s Dean about this yesterday and wanted to hear his response first. It\u2019s the kind of large-scale thing he wants our college to be more involved in, we\u2019re very self-focused for the time being, and, as I\u2019m sure you know, public image is worth its weight in gold to any campus.\nAlketa May 6, 2012 at 2:57 PM\nInternational students have been growing in numbers in our institution as well even though we are a small college.\nIt seems like a great idea for them to have this organization at our college.\nWill pursue this further.",

        "raw_content": "File Q&A: Robbie Fulks\nilentertainer | September 2, 2013\t| 0 Comments\nHELLO, My Name is Robbie\nInspiration often comes from the most unexpected places, and, sometimes, when the muse pouts in a corner, the only place to turn is the Bible. Not for divine intervention, but to pilfer phrases. In our monthly Q&A, Robbie Fulks admits to Janine Schaults that the title of his latest release can be found in those holy pages.\nIllinois Entertainer: The new album is called Gone Away Backward. Can you break down that title for us?\nRobbie Fulks: It\u2019s from the Bible. God says it to Israel in the first chapter of Isaiah: You are gone away backward, you are corruptors of children . . . I don\u2019t remember the whole verse. I couldn\u2019t find a title for a long time and I finally sat down with the Bible. It\u2019s kind of like the final go-to for phrases.\nIE: You weren\u2019t even reading the Bible, you were just like, I\u2019m going to close my eyes and point my finger and wherever it lands\nRF: Exactly. I fucking skimmed the Bible; I might have even been sitting on the toilet at the time. It was an irreligious way to use the Bible probably, but it seemed to fit the music and gone is such is potent country word \u2013 it\u2019s a beautiful phrase, I think.\nIE: You\u2019re releasing this album on Bloodshot Records \u2013 the first time since 2001. Why go the label route?\nRF: I\u2019ve put out my own stuff from time to time, including my last two records, and there\u2019s things about that that I really like. I think in both circumstances \u2013 working with others or working alone \u2013 there\u2019s assets and liabilities. It\u2019s pretty obvious, I guess. The assets in working with other people, for reasons I don\u2019t fully understand, people pay more attention. I don\u2019t understand if it says this name or that name or no name at all, why would it would be reviewed more or less. And the difference in sales isn\u2019t as striking as the difference in the number of reviews, but there is a difference. Finally, there\u2019s the sharing the work with somebody, not only in terms of getting some of the drudgery off your back, but a sense of shared enterprise. If it\u2019s all through my site and through me mailing out things or shipping people MP3 files, it\u2019s just kind of a lonely existence. With Bloodshot, it feels like me and my friends are working really hard to make a little money and do something fun together.\nIE: They say you can\u2019t go home, but was returning to Bloodshot a lot like going back home?\nRF: Yeah. They\u2019re the same people. It is like going back home because then you go see your mom and dad and you walk in and you\u2019re like, \u201cJesus Christ! Nothing has changed here? Like, literally nothing?\u201d Now you\u2019re gonna treat me like I\u2019m 15 again and here we go. So I guess that\u2019s the bad side of going home. But with them, yeah, I feel like we\u2019ve been through the fire together, and I\u2019m totally impressed by the fact that they\u2019re still there making records. And I hope that doesn\u2019t sound patronizing, but I think most of the labels I\u2019ve worked with and much the ones you\u2019ve observed and read about over the years, they have a five or ten-year life span if they\u2019re lucky. But [Bloodshot] defined this really weird, particular thing that they do and stuck with it and had business smarts and some luck, I guess too. So I\u2019m really impressed that they\u2019re there. Their longevity, in a way, makes them even more attractive to work with, along with the fact that we\u2019re friends.\nIE: As you were describing the label, it also seems like you could be describing yourself.\nRF: Yeah! Right. I\u2019m sure they\u2019re surprised that I\u2019m still here too.\nIE: Explain the different approach you took when recording this album.\nRF: This was like recorded in three and a half days, and then we didn\u2019t listen really as we went. So we just recorded and recorded and recorded . . . it was important to me to have a whole bunch to choose from and not to spend the time over those three or four days sitting around listening and debating this or that. We just played. It was probably like 24 hours of music across multiple CDs, and I took it home and I waited for two or three months before I listened to it so that I would forget about it. And then I listened to it and started sifting. So the whole thing took almost two years from the recording date to the release. The usual way to do it is you [sit] back and listen to it, and then everybody talks about it and then you make decisions . . . and I assume a lot of people work that way and I didn\u2019t do that in this case, and so the decisions are made sometimes by talking after a take, like you think back on what you did instead of listening. You think back to what happened, which seems like a less effective way to do it because you\u2019re working from memory instead of the evidence of your ears right there before you, but if they\u2019re real good players and people\u2019s memories are good, it can work. And even moreover, you\u2019re working on instinct a little bit more. Things can just improve without being discussed, and that\u2019s what I was hoping would happen with this method. I think sometimes it happened and sometimes it didn\u2019t, but luckily we had all that music to choose from so when it didn\u2019t happen, then you could still work around it.\nIE: Did you enjoy this process enough to continue doing it going forward?\nRF: Not necessarily. I did enjoy not listening to it, and it felt more productive just playing and playing. I\u2019ve made like 10 or 11 records and looking back on it, I start to think that so much time is wasted with that aspect of it. It seems crucial to listen as you go, but I\u2019m not so sure with digital tools that it is so much anymore. But, like I said, to me, it was kind of fitfully productive. It wasn\u2019t 100 percent productive because we missed things. You could tell listening back a couple months later that we missed some opportunities to strengthen things that we would have caught on playback, so I think it\u2019s kind of mixed results. But in terms of how you feel when you\u2019re in the studio and keeping momentum going, it was so much more satisfying because you just felt like it was a continuously moving train rather than play something, stop, grab a coffee, go to another room, sit down on a couch, listen to something, talk. It\u2019s such a jerky way, if you know what I mean, to do it.\nIE: The character in \u201cSometimes The Grass Is Really Greener\u201d transforms himself for the worst at a record label\u2019s bidding and loses everything that made him unique. How did you keep yourself from falling into that trap?\nRF: Well, I got let go by my label, that\u2019s how I kept myself from falling into that trap. I think if I\u2019d made a longer go in that world that I could have ended up embittered and maybe different musically, I don\u2019t know worse or for better, maybe divorced. I think, all in all, it was kind of lucky for me that that wasn\u2019t the path because I\u2019ve been able to enjoy almost total freedom in the kind of records I\u2019ve made, which is more important than money. After a livable level of money, it\u2019s more important to me to be able to pursue something that strikes my fancy, in a deeper way than the word fancy suggests, but to follow the instincts around the musical map without regard to committee thought, without having to get every step approved. That\u2019s been really valuable for me, I think.\nIE: For actors, Chicago is seen as this place where you go to work \u2013 not become famous. If you want to work and make a living as an actor, you can do that. Do you think that also fits for musicians?\nRF: I think so. A surprising number of the musicians I know and work with here, and especially people my age, they own houses and stuff with yards. And the houses are pretty nice and their spouses work too and everything, but that\u2019s not any big deal in modern-day America, and it seems like yeah, there\u2019s this whole body of musicians here that is pretty happy, content to be here, despite whatever value is lost in the fact that people don\u2019t know their names 200 miles away from here and farther. I definitely don\u2019t want to move to L.A. or Nashville. I kind of like New York in a way, but there\u2019s so many hardships about life there, so, all in all, I\u2019m pretty content here. Not 100 percent, but 75 percent.\nIE: If you were 100 percent anything your songs wouldn\u2019t be that good.\nRF: Well, they wouldn\u2019t be those songs. They\u2019d be Luke Bryan songs or something, but they wouldn\u2019t be mine.\nIE: You described the current state of popular country music as love songs for people younger than you. Is there an expiration date on love songs once you get past a certain age?\nRF: You know what I mean by love songs, with an element of lust and, like, \u201cI\u2019ve got to have this above all costs and this is going to change my life,\u201d and that kind of totalistic biologically imperative kind of a love song. Yeah, I think we have these feelings in middle age, but I think to look at somebody my age singing about that stuff can be kind of alarming for people. I\u2019m not sure audiences want to see that and also, I don\u2019t honestly feel it in the way that I used to either, so I think it would be a little a little bit inauthentic and also be creepy to observe.\nIE: What is love like in middle age then?\nRF: It\u2019s marriage, so it\u2019s mellower and it\u2019s also projected onto children obviously and other objects than some passing fancy. So it\u2019s ripened and mature, I guess is the positive way to put it.\nIE: What kickback do you owe Tina Fey for declaring that everyone should buy everything you\u2019ve got available on iTunes?\nRF: I owe her a big, sloppy kiss is what I owe her. Today\u2019s kickback will be in the form of kisses. I\u2019m going to kiss her entire face. I was happy that she said it. And she\u2019s done nice things for me on and off for years. I love her.\nRobbie Fulks appears at Old Town School of Folk Music (4544 N. Lincoln Ave.) in Chicago on Sept. 6 to celebrate the release of Gone Away Backward.\n-Janine Schaults\nTags: Bloodshot Records, Robbie Fulks\nCategory: Featured, File, Monthly, Uncategorized\n\u00ab Cover Story: Joan Jett\nAlabama live! \u00bb",

        "title": "KYRIAKOS PAPADOPOULOS \u2014 IBWM",
        "raw_content": "Kyriakos Papadopoulos 20 Defender Schalke\nLet me take you way back in time to the heady, fun-filled days of 2010, and to a little series of games you may have heard of called \u2018Football Manager\u2019.\nHaving guided Brighton into the Championship (I\u2019ll let you guess which IBWM editor is writing this report, the only other clue I\u2019ll give you is that it isn\u2019t Danny Last) on FM2010 I found myself with a small transfer budget and a desperate need for a towering defender. Now I had torn through League One thanks to a few rather classy loan signings (Fulham\u2019s Chris Smalling who needed first team football, Manchester United\u2019s Febian Brandy who scored over 30 goals, and Newcastle United\u2019s Andy Carroll \u2013 wonder what happened to him?), my assault on the Championship was going to be built on similar foundations but I wanted a central defender who would stay at the club for years. This was to be my future captain, my stalwart, I would praise him in press conferences and tickle his contract up year on year to keep him happy, he would adapt to Premier League life if we got there in a heartbeat, in short he would be my wonder-kid.\nNow this was important so I turned to the Internet. I had a modest budget and another \u00a31.5m on top of that thanks to the sales of Glenn Murray and Liam Dickenson and the search began. Finally I had my man \u2013 Mark Beevers of Sheffield Wednesday \u2013 but he wanted too much money and would wipe my wage budget out so I went with the second name on the list, the Terminator himself, \u00a32.3m worth of Kyriakos Papadopoulos.\nNeedless to say the rest is history, Brighton went on to win the Premier League six years later and were defeated in the Champions League final the season after (by Real Madrid seeing as you asked). Papadopoulos eventually retired a club legend.\nAnd so it came to be that as always with players who become your own personal FM legends, I began to follow the real life career of the central defender with some interest.\nAnd I\u2019m far from being the only one.\nPapadopoulos was marked as different from an early age by scouts across Europe. At the age of 15 he was being offered trails by various clubs, a situation that sparked Olympiakos to move and sign the central-defender immediately where he then made his way straight into the reserves and then incredibly at the age of 16, all the way to the first team. He became the youngest ever player to feature in the Greek Superleague in a position on the pitch where maturity and experience is vital. Despite his chances being limited he had already made his mark, Papadopoulos was every inch the wonder-kid in real life.\nAs ever scouting networks fizzed with excitement at the thought of a 16-year-old playing first team football and Manchester United maintained an interest, but he remained sensible and signed a new contract with Olympiakos where he continued developing just fine. At the same time he was excelling at international youth levels for Greece\u2019s U17, U19 and eventually the U21 squad.\nTaking all this into consideration it was perhaps a surprise that when a move came it was to Germany with Schalke, but by the same token it could be argued that if he had gone to Chelsea or Juventus (both of whom were heavily linked at different times) it could have been too soon. Schalke offered first team football and a much smaller spotlight, and it\u2019s fair to say he has taken the chance with both hands, feet and anything else he can give on a football pitch.\nHe has grown into a first team regular for both club and country, the very model of a modern central defender. Strong, comfortable on the ball, deceptively quick, and also with a happy knack of scoring (4 goals in 15 international appearances a particularly good looking return), he is loved by all at Schalke where he\u2019s recently signed a new contract to take him to 2016. In press conferences he has spoken repeatedly of his happiness at the club and while this is football and these sort of statements usually mean very little, there is a genuine sense that this is a player at the right club for this moment in time.\nHe still attracts huge interest, this summer AC Milan (who have a decent pedigree in the position) made some public statements of their admiration for the player but were told in no uncertain terms he wasn\u2019t for sale and certainly not for the figures their dwindling finances could afford. Zenit, who I think we can all agree didn\u2019t hold back the purse strings this summer in quite the same fashion, made firm offers but all were ignored.\nBesides the gathering cloud of transfer rumours, this summer was also a big one as he found himself highlighted as Greece\u2019s best player by UEFA at their 2012 European Championships. Thrust into the tournament as a first-half substitute for his injured namesake Avraam in the opening game against Poland, he played every minute from that moment on and even in the meltdown of the defeats to the Czech Republic and Germany, emerged with reputation intact and enhanced.\nNow all this eulogizing needs to be tempered with a little non-FM2010-hero-inspired analysis and if there was a fault in his game to pick up, it has to be his disciplinary record. At Schalke he\u2019s picked up one red and several yellow cards, partly as a consequence of his utter dedication to the cause (think Nemanja Vidic doing his throw-something-at-it-at-all-costs thing), but also partly due to a lack of maturity. He can be prone to the odd lunge following the odd heavy touch and he\u2019s usually so assured it looks\u2026well\u2026odd, but again these are things experience will iron out in time.\nIt\u2019s far too easy to see Papadopoulos as someone who has been around forever already, after all due to his debut at 16 it feels like he has, but this is a 20-year old player with a style that comes from beyond his relatively tender years. As I said before the position of central defender is one that benefits from experience and that is the one string he doesn\u2019t have on his bow, but that will come and if he keeps the same level of progression going, it\u2019s no exaggeration to say Greece could be blessed with one of the best defenders in world football for many years to come.\nThat may seem like high praise but we\u2019ll say it again \u2013 20 years old, wanted by AC Milan amongst others to drop straight into the first team, consistently good at his first European Championships, one of the first names on the team sheet for club and country \u2013 genuinely this is one player who just needs to keep on keeping on.\n\"The Terminator\" is probably as appropriate a nickname as Papadopoulos could have received. So convincing have been his club performances been that it garnered the attention of AC Milan in the summer and Schalke captain and first choice center back Benedikt H\u00f6wedes rarely gets to play in his preferred position anymore.\u201d\u2013 Cristian Nyari (Bundesliga Fanatic)\n\"Papadopoulos maybe unspectacular but he has cemented a place in the heart of one of the biggest clubs in the Bundesliga where expectations are high. He has a German Cup winners medal and look set to become a seasoned Champions League campaigner. Not bad for a 20 year old. At a push he can even stand in as a defensive midfielder.\"\u2013 Terry Duffelen (bundesligalounge)\nC+ Not quite that talismanic player who drags teams to trophies on his own yet, but that may well be coming",

        "title": "Soy Isoflavones Grow Hair by Increasing IGF-1 in the Skin",
        "raw_content": "Soy Isoflavones Grow Hair by Increasing IGF-1 in the Skin\nFood sources of isoflavones include tofu and miso soup. (Photo by sokole oko)\nMany of you have probably heard that soy isoflavones may be good for hair loss. How exactly dietary isoflavones work to promote hair growth is less clear, however.\nAs long-time readers may remember, I've written before about the effects of dietary isoflavones on humans and animals. For example, in male rats even a relatively low amount of soy isoflavones reduces DHT and increases testosterone. This alone would probably be enough to explain hair growth in rodents.\nOf course, humans are a more difficult case. Most of the things that show promise in mice or rats don't work for humans with androgenic alopecia in the end. The good news is that soy isoflavones reduce DHT even in humans. The bad news is that the reduction may not be great enough. About 60 mg of isoflavones daily reduced serum DHT in healthy young men by only 15%.\nEven this moderate drop would suggest a reduction in 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone to DHT. However, the markers of 5-alpha-reductase looked at in the study did not show a difference between the treated and the control group.\nAnd yet, a combination of capsaicin and soy isoflavones grows hair in both animals and humans. In this study, capsaicin injected into the skin was enough to grow hair in animals, although the combination was more effective. In humans, orally administered isoflavones and capsaicin resulted in hair growth in 88% of the participants with androgenic alopecia, which is a remarkable result for a supplement that reduces DHT by so little.\nThe authors speculated that capsaicin and soy isoflavones promote hair growth by increasing dermal levels of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1). They suggested that a key factor was calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which acts as a vasodilator, among other things. It also increases IGF-1 in various tissues, including the skin.\nThis theory is supported by the fact that subcutaneous capsaicin increased CGRP release and IGF-1 expression in hair follicle cells in normal mice but not in CGRP-knockout mice. Soy isoflavones increased the production of CGRP, which explains why the combination was more effective than capsaicin alone.\nBased on these studies, it was still unclear whether dietary isoflavones alone promote hair growth. Now, the same authors have investigated their idea further. In their new study, they fed isoflavones to mice whose backs were shaved and measured their hair growth (link). Again, both wild-type mice and CGRP-knockout were used.\nThe isoflavone supplement used was Fujiflavone P40, which contains 43.5% isoflavones. 5 g of the product was mixed per each kg of standard chow. On average, the mice ate 4.6 grams of food daily, which means that their daily intake of isoflavones was 0.0046 * 0.005 * 0.435 = ~10 mg (correct me if my calculation is wrong).\nAfter three weeks of isoflavone administration, dermal CGRP and IGF-1 levels in wild-type mice increased significantly compared to the control group. In the knockout mice, no difference was seen between mice given isoflavones and the control group.\nHair follicle number also increased in wild-type mice given isoflavones. Compared to the control group, they had about 40% more hair follicles. The knockout mice had less hair follicles to begin with, and when they were given isoflavones, no improvement was seen. Thus, it seems that isoflavones grow new hairs through increasing dermal levels of CGRP and IGF-1.\nCompared to the mice given isoflavones, the control mice seemed to take a longer time growing their existing hair back. Even the knockout mice that saw no increase in IGF-1 grew their hair back quicker when they were given isoflavones. This might be due to other effects of isoflavones, such as reducing DHT levels. Based on the pictures in the full paper, the wild-type mice grew their hair back even quicker, however. Wild-type mice given isoflavones also had a more pronounced darkening of hair than their control group.\nSo what is the take home message? Based on all these studies, it looks like soy isoflavones show very good potential for promoting hair growth. A part of their effectiveness may come from the fact that they reduce serum DHT and increase testosterone, but based on the rodent data, the real kick is from the increase in skin levels of IGF-1.\nAt the moment, there is no data comparing the effectiveness of soy isoflavones vs. capsaicin in humans. However, we do know that the combination is superior in increasing dermal IGF-1 in animals, and that the combination of both taken orally grows hair in humans with androgenic alopecia.\nMaharishi June 29, 2010 at 9:01 PM\nThanks for another very interesting post. I discovered your blog a couple of months ago and read nearly every posting. Just wanted to let you know I appreciate your effort.\nJared Bond June 30, 2010 at 2:06 PM\nHey, I remember IGF-1 being accused for making the eyeballs grow longer than they should be, thus causing nearsightedness; any thoughts?\nFrF July 1, 2010 at 9:18 PM\nI completely agree with Maharishi. Inhuman Experiment is a very interesting resource. I'm always learning something new :-)\n(I didn't even know about soy isoflavones and capsaicin prior to reading about them at IE!)\nJLL, do you also keep an eye on hair multiplication and its protagonists like Follica and Histogen? What do you think about this line of research? Apart from corporate news (i.e. it getting additional funding) there hasn't been much heard from Follica but Histogen made headlines recently with this study:\nhttp://www.histogen.com/aboutus/news_events.htm#25\nAll in all I think there's a reasonable chance that we'll get rid of the scourge that is MPB within the next, say, ten years. Let's not use the proverbial five-year time frame, though of course that would be even better :-)\nJLL July 1, 2010 at 9:28 PM\nI've never heard of that. Any studies on that claim?\n@FrF,\nI wrote an article on Intercytex and regenerative hair therapy some time ago on tressless.com. I do believe that things like Follica and Histogen may be effective treatments one day, but I don't write about them so much, because I focus on writing about things that can be done by anyone at home -- which pretty much rules out injectable treatments.\nOh, sorry, JLL, I completely forgot that you're occasionally writing for Tressless.\nNow I remember reading that article about Intercytex, thinking, \"That's a well-written piece\" and then I saw your initials in the byline.\nThe patient pictures in your older article* about soy isoflavones and capsaicin are actually rather encouraging. Now I understand why you're making a multi-part series about this type of treatment :-)\nhttp://inhumanexperiment.blogspot.com/2009/09/capsaicin-and-soy-isoflavones-grow-hair.html\nI just recently found your blog in the past week or so and have read a substantial amount of your posts due to the fact that they are quality and give a good perspective on topics people are interested in.\nSo I've read that soy isoflavones can interact with finasteride so I don't think I will want to take those (maybe too much anti dht supplements can be a problem? I don't know). I can search for the site I read that on if needed.\nSo my question to you is what supplements/topicals do you think are best for hair growth/regrowth in your experience and research?\nI'm interested in toco-sorb and capsaicin, gingko, all kinds of stuff.\nThis page is pretty interesting on the topic btw (its a good site);\nhttp://www.hairloss-research.org/february1.html\nJLL July 2, 2010 at 11:35 AM\n@E,\nFinasteride, minoxidil and ketoconazole are probably the most effective ones. Then there's piroctone olamine, which is similar to ketoconazole. Vitamin A derivatives such as retinol and retinoids also have studies behind them, and I saw some new hairs from using a topical retinol cream.\nI tried toco-sorb for a month but didn't see anything. I took ginkgo too, but that was for a nootropic experiment. No effects from that either.\nMy suspicion is that a green tea cream at the right concentration would probably be a pretty good topical. That combined with oral soy isoflavones, capsaicin, and flax meal might be a good \"natural\" regimen. Those are the most promising ones, at least.\nMost likely anything that reduces inflammation is good in the long run, too.\n@ E:\nCould you please show a link to a study/article that speaks out about interaction between finasteride and soy isoflavones?\nHarmful to health, halting their effect each other or just doubling the effect on the other hand, or unexpected long term endocrinological effects?\nSo does isoflavones work by increasing levels of IGF-1 in the body, or by allowing more IGF-1 to accumulate at the scalp by increasing vasodilation and thus blood flow to the scalp?\nI heard that IGF-1 is not good if you have cancer or tumor risks, as it increases proliferation of such tissue. But if it is working mainly by vasodilation via CGRP then it would be a lot safer.",

        "raw_content": "Can\u2019t talk right now, I\u2019m busy playing World of Warcraft.\nIt appears that I have neglected to update this blog for the last two weeks. You see, I was busy. Well, not really. Just distracted.\nI decided to take the plunge and try out World of Warcraft, Blizzard\u2019s new MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game). I was a big fan of Blizzard\u2019s Diablo series, but D2 was starting to show it\u2019s age.\nI never thought it was worth paying $15 a month to play a game like Everquest. But the reviews for WoW were good, and considering Blizzard\u2019s track record, I decided to give it a go.\nWhen it comes to video and computer games, among other things, I\u2019ll take an intense interest in it for a few days, or perhaps a couple of weeks at best. Then I get bored and it goes back on the shelf. But with an online RPG like WoW, you never run out of things to do. There\u2019s always something new to explore, another quest to be run. Goodbye free time!\nThe addictiveness of MMORPG\u2019s like Everquest is legendary. Hardcore players have dubbed the game \u201cEvercrack,\u201d and it has been blamed for broken marriages and even a suicide.\nEverquest in general required massive amounts of time to progress in the game. Many hours were required just to level your character, and a brisk and profitable off-line market existed for high-level characters and rare weapons. Oddly enough, for those who were most addicted to it, the game stopped being fun and started becoming an obsession, with social climbing, loot gathering and a Pavlovian system of rewards. Not to mention the constant grumling about Sony\u2019s stewardship of the game.\nWorld of Warcraft isn\u2019t necessarily immune to all these problems (especially with players grumbling at Blizzard for supposedly \u2018ruining\u2019 the game), though it has made many improvements. For one, it doesn\u2019t take hours of playing to level. You can have fun playing for just an hour or two (though it\u2019s just as fun to play longer). The game actually rewards you for logging out, by giving you double experience commensurate to the amount of time you were logged out. And I\u2019ve noticed that some players are genuinely concerned about other players who act rude, or those who take it a tad too seriously.\nBut still, WoW is just immersive enough that it could be dubbed \u201cWorld of Warcrack.\u201d (If no one else has already thought of this clever joke, then I take credit for it.)\nMy interest in WoW prompted me to do something I haven\u2019t done in years: programming. I spent the last few days programming a script for use with in-game macros.\nI\u2019ve got two finals coming up next week, so I\u2019ll need to focus on other things for a while. After all, it\u2019s not like I\u2019m addicted or anything\nThis Week\u2019s Obituaries and Interesting Coincidences\nIt seems that this past week has been filled with one surprising (or not-so-surprising) death after another. As you all know, the Pope died yesterday. As his health declined this past week, he was put on a feeding tube \u2014 in an ironic contrast to Terri Schiavo, whose Catholic parents were fighting to get hers put back in. Both, of course, died within days of each other. Coincidence, or omen?\nI picked up the Saturday Tennessean with the headline \u201cFaithful Resigned to Pope\u2019s Death,\u201d and thought \u201cYou\u2019d think he\u2019d died already or something.\u201d I got home and shortly realized that he had died within the hour.\nAlthough I\u2019m not a Catholic, I have to say that Pope John Paul II was probably about as progressive as a pope could possibly be. I thought it was very classy the way he apologized for the historical mistakes and atrocities of the Church over the years, such as the Holy Crusades and the Inquisition. It\u2019s obvious that he\u2019s made great efforts to try and bridge religious and political gaps during his papacy.\nIn any case, he was certainly a great and important man, and will be sorely missed by many. I can\u2019t help but think, cynically, that the Pope\u2019s passing at least pushed the Schiavo death off of the news. \u2018Tis better to remember a great man than to milk that tragedy any longer.\nThe big point of discussion right now is, of course, who will be the next pope? The choice right now seems to be between an Italian or a non-Italian pope. I think if the church really wants to be progressive, they\u2019ll appoint a South American pope of Hispanic origin. South Americans have been Catholic from the time of the conquistadors, and since they comprise a large percentage of the Church, it would be fitting to appoint one as pontiff.\nIn other semi-related news, Guitar Wolf bassist Hideaki Sekiguchi died this past Thursday from a heart attack at the age of 38, a week to the day that a Nashville crowd (including moi) watched him violently and thoroughly smash his bass guitar against the Exit/In\u2019s concrete stage. (I thought that was an interesting coincidence too)\nAnd let\u2019s not forget comedian Mitch Hedburg, who also died of heart failure at the age of 37, most likely of a congenital heart defect. I\u2019m not too familiar with his work, but it\u2019s worth a mention. All this talk of dying young makes me think that I should take better care of myself.",

        "raw_content": "Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and the Endocannabinoid System\nPost Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a condition that can arise when a person experiences a traumatic or life-threatening event. In these situations our body activates its fight or flight response to respond quickly and accordingly by either fending off the threat or fleeing the dangerous situation. However depending on genetic predisposition and the severity of the trauma some survivors are left with lasting effects on their brain\u2019s ability to properly utilize this response as well as a dysfunctional fear extinction mechanism.\nVeterans returning from the battlefield are particularly prone to this type of illness and it continues to be a growing issue as more soldiers return from their deployment. Symptoms of PTSD include flashbacks, hypersensitivity or the feeling of being \u201con edge\u201d, as well as avoidance behaviors especially of situations and things that remind the patient of the trauma. Typically antidepressants and other prescription drugs such as Valium were used to treat PTSD but ultimately these drugs do not solve the problem leading many of these patients to addiction and suicide especially when combined with alcohol.\nThe Science Behind Why Cannabis Works for PTSD.\nCannabis can be an invaluable tool to these patients because its primary constituent THC acts on cannabinoid receptors in the brain. These receptors assist in an important function that is damaged in these patients, the ability to forget. The following clip from the film \u201cThe Botany of Desire\u201d describes this somewhat counterintuitive evolutionary adaptation:\nThe endocannabinoid system (ECS), specifically CB1 receptors, mediate this action in the brain. THC acts as a partial agonist at these receptors eliciting a cascade of cell signaling responses that lead to a rescue of fear extinction learning. CB1 receptors are found primarily in the central nervous system and are found in most of the brain but particularly the action of these receptors in the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and the amygdala are what make cannabis so useful for PTSD. These receptors are responsible for maintaining hedonia (state of well-being) as well as opposing hypothalamus pituitary axis (HPA) response to stress, bringing the body back to homeostasis following exposure to stressful stimuli.\nThere has been a large amount of preclinical data gathered that implicates the ECS as a primary target for the treatment of PTSD. A study from 2002 led by Marsicano shows that the CB1 receptors in the amygdala are required for the extinction of fear memories. A further study by Hill in 2005 showed that following chronic stress signaling in the ECS is downregulated. This downregulation impaired reversal learning (the ability to be trained differently to two stimuli based on reward or punishment response) in mice and as anticipated induced perservatory behaviors. The study also found that the effects of chronic stress were reversed when an exogenous CB1 agonist was applied.\nHuman studies using positron emission tomography (PET) scans have revealed that the CB1 receptors of PTSD patients are primarily unoccupied suggesting a deficiency in endocannabinoid signaling. In addition, blood endocannabinoid concentrations in PTSD patients were considerably lower than those that had not experienced trauma. Further human studies published in 2013 in the journal Neurobiology of Learning and Memory confirmed that THC\u2019s action at the CB1 receptor facilitated fear extinction learning through its interactions with the amygdala, ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), and hippocampus.\nRecently the federal government has lightened its chokehold on cannabinoid research for PTSD. Last March in an unprecedented move, the DEA gave the University of Arizona the green light to study cannabis use in veterans with the disorder. This approval marks a huge accomplishment for researchers who have had to maneuver a variety of obstacles the federal government has implemented.",

        "raw_content": "As I sucked in a deep breath, I released an exasperated sigh looking into my father\u2019s blue eyes. \u201cDad, I\u2019m nearly 60 years old. How do you think I\u2019ve gotten this far without your help?\u201d\nPausing for a moment, his impish Irish grin began to spread across his face as he wrapped his gnarled fingers around my hand, winked, and said, \u201cSorry, I can\u2019t help myself. You\u2019ll always be my little girl.\u201d\nTucking my 96-year-old father into bed that night, I studied his aged face of unbridled love and thought to myself, \u201cI wonder if he\u2019s ever going to let me grow-up?\u201d\nLong ago a brilliant and inquisitive mind set my dad on a course to be an authority on nearly every subject. Math being one of his finest powers. I, on the other hand, skipped through life by the seat of my hot pink pants. I had to taste, touch, feel, and dance my way through a subject in order to learn anything.\nMy dad knew that academic learning and I were never good friends, so instructed me time-and-time again, \u201cJackie, if you\u2019d just do what I tell you to do, you\u2019ll be successful.\u201d\nSuccessful? Who cared about something so vague at 7-years-old in the mid-1950\u2019s? Besides, instinctively I knew that was a lifetime away. All I ever wanted was to be one with nature- hanging from a tree, picking flowers or finding a body of water to splash around in. Talk about a thriving life! Fortunately for both of us, I finally did come to understand the wisdom of his tutelage and took heed.\nWhen I began to listen to his advice, I found it was much better to drive on the on the right side of the road and follow the speed limit if I wanted to stay on a friendly basis with the local police.\nAs I entered the business world, I did as he instructed and soon discovered I could scale the corporate ladder if I worked hard, proved to be punctual, polite to my superiors, and dressed in a professional manner. It wasn\u2019t always just about brains, but the entire package.\nBut his greatest example for a flourishing life was lined in the supple cashmere jacket of his rich Catholic faith. Not only did it make him deeply moral, respectful, kind, and honest, but in these last years of his life, it has been a blessing and a warm comfort. For most of my life, Catholicism was a spiritual seminar I found myself waffling, but now, because of his shining example, I\u2019ve decided to re-enroll in a second course to find my own way back to God.\nOld thought processes and life roles can be hard to transition out of. In his heart, I\u2019ll forever be that exuberant child with strawberry blonde ponytails that bounced merrily as I skipped behind his every move. But, I\u2019ve made peace with the fact that I\u2019ll never be allowed to become an adult in my father\u2019s eyes. Each time he tells me when to check the oil in my car or how to lick an envelope; I know it comes from his need to be useful, to still have a purpose, and his deep love for his child. For no matter how old he becomes, he\u2019ll always be the father and I, daddy\u2019s little girl.\nI believe as we age, the need to feel secure in a place we once treasured becomes ever more demanding. When my children come home for a visit, I pray they bring their laundry and that they\u2019ll let me do it. For an hour or two, I travel back in time when my life\u2019s purpose was making everything right in the world. Now, that job belongs to them. Like our parents before us, as long as we\u2019re living we will do the same to our children \u2013 whether they like it or not! What are some of your stories?\npattiewelekhall July 11, 2012 at 7:59 pm\nJackie\u2026 precious from beginning to end. You are so blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with you dad, and he with you.\nMy greatest memory of my dad was him singing to his five daughters, \u201cThank Heavens for Little Girls.\u201d\nYour memories are something no one can ever take from you. And girl\u2026 you have a heart full of them.\nBlessings dear,\nThank you, Marney.\nHow fortunate are we to have parents who still care so much. Blessings on you, sweet girl.\nMarney McNall May 30, 2012 at 4:28 pm\nMy dad\u2019s favorites are, \u201cDon\u2019t forget to close the blinds at night.\u201d and \u201cAre you drinking enough milk?\u201d I don\u2019t think it will ever matter how old I am. That\u2019s just him. And actually, now that I think about it\u2026.it would make me sad if he changed.\nIt\u2019s so clear how much you love and respect your father. Thanks for sharing and I wish you all kinds of blessings as you find your way, as you said, back to God.\nJACQUELINE GUM May 27, 2012 at 6:47 pm\n\u201cBut his greatest example for a flourishing life was lined in the supple cashmere jacket of his rich Catholic faith.\u201d\nThat statement is rich with description and sentimentality.

        "title": "It's Noncensus (New York Press, 3/15/00)",
        "raw_content": "It's Noncensus\nThe Census Bureau discovers miscegenation.\nNew York Press, Wednesday March 15, 2000\nIn 1967 the U.S. Supreme Court declared that states can't prohibit interracial marriage. Eight years earlier a Virginia couple, Richard and Mildred Loving--he was white, she was black--had each been sentenced to a year in jail after pleading guilty to violating the state's ban on miscegenation by marrying in Washington, DC. The trial judge, Leon Bazile, was compassionate enough to suspend their sentences--provided they get out of Virginia and stay out for 25 years. \"Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents,\" Judge Bazile opined. \"The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix.\"\nThe Supreme Court, in the delightfully named case of Loving v. Virginia, unanimously disagreed, striking down antimiscegenation laws in Virginia and 15 other Southern and border states. Ever since, interracial unions have been permitted just about everywhere in America, save at South Carolina's Bob Jones University. In late February BJU posted on its website an explanation of the \"Bible principle\" behind its longstanding ban on interracial dating and marriage among students. \"God wanted a divided world, not a federalized world,\" the statement read, echoing Judge Bazile. \"The University wishes to give God the benefit of any doubt and avoid pursuing any direction that would give assistance to the renewed efforts of man to create a one-world community consisting of one religion, one economy, one government, and one race.\"\nMighty white of them to give God the benefit of the doubt. On March 3, however, BJU president Bob Jones III--stung by criticism from George W. Bush, among others--announced on CNN's Larry King Live that his institution was lifting its ban. The same day, the zany apologia disappeared from the BJU homepage, replaced by a bland statement that began: \"We are not racists in any shape, form or fashion. We do not hold one race over another.\" But last week Jones issued a caveat, telling students that they would need written permission from their parents before the university would allow them to date outside their race.\nIf BJU hasn't quite entered the 20th century, the U.S. Census Bureau is about to do so. The 2000 census, which takes place April 1, will be the first that officially acknowledges the inevitable result of mixed-race marriages: mixed-race children. Suppose your mom is half Haitian and half Irish, and your dad is half Filipino and half Cherokee. In 1990 you'd have had to decide which box to check: black, white, Asian or American Indian. In 2000 you can check all four.\nThis means that when the census is tabulated and the racial categories are added up, the total will be more than 100 percent. What an inspiring thought: America is greater than the sum of its parts. For those of us with complicated ethnic backgrounds, the new census form is a welcome change. Finally, the government is allowing us to affirm every aspect of our heritage.\nWell, not quite. Some ethnic groups turn out to count more than others. The whole enterprise underscores the folly of categorizing people by race.\nExample: My mother, Ulla-Britt Taranto (n\u00e9e Johnsson), is an immigrant from Sweden. But we Swedish-Americans don't merit our own census classification. There isn't even a \"Scandinavian\" category. Instead, we're lumped in with the likes of Belgians, Serbs and Bulgarians, all crowded into the \"White\" box.\nAsians, by contrast, get nine separate \"racial\" categories, ranging from \"Chinese\" and \"Japanese\" to \"Samoan\" and--my personal favorite--\"Guamanian or Chamorro.\" But my paternal grandfather, Vitali Taranto, was born in Asia--Izmir, Turkey, to be precise. The census form has no \"Turkish\" category. Asian-Americans, however, unlike European-Americans, get a write-in option. I can check \"Other Asian\" and identify myself as Turkish.\nThose who are \"Spanish/Hispanic/Latino,\" too, can cast a write-in vote. There are separate boxes for Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans and Cuban-Americans, but everyone else has to check \"Other\" and stipulate his group. Since Vitali Taranto's ancestors were from Spain--expelled, with other Sephardic Jews, in 1492--I can write in \"Spanish.\"\nOther parts of my heritage get ignored altogether. My paternal grandmother, Goldina Taranto (n\u00e9e Feldman) was born in Istanbul to Romanian Jewish parents. And Vitali's ancestors lived in Italy for a time in the 15th and 16th centuries--hence my Italian surname. Romanians, Italians, European Turks? Forget it. To the bean counters at the Census Bureau, we're all \"White.\"\nA census that took full account of America's endless diversity would be staggeringly complex. It would require separate categories for Basques and Lapps, for Hutus and Tutsis, for Cuban Jews, Peruvian-Americans of Japanese extraction, and hundreds of other groups and subgroups. Why not, pray tell, a single category for Swedish-Turkish-Romanian-Italian-Spanish-Jewish-Americans? In my family alone, three people fit that bill.\nHere's a better solution. According to the Census Bureau website, you are free to forgo all the standard racial categories and identify yourself simply as American: \"Mark the 'Some other race' box and enter the response in the space provided.\"\nWhen you fill out your census form, forget \"white, black, yellow, malay and red.\" The only colors that matter are red, white and blue.

        "raw_content": "Tag: An Introduction to the Devout Life\nMy Reading Challenge Pick for\u2026A Book by a Doctor of the Church\nWe are down to the last three categories for the 2017 Catholic Reading Challenge. I\u2019ve been sharing what I\u2019m reading throughout the year for each one.\nCategory: A Book by a Doctor of the Church\nMy Pick: An Introduction to the Devout Life by St. Francis de Sales\nOf all the hundreds of saints in the Church, we only have 36 that hold of title of \u201cDoctor of the Church.\u201d So basically anything that you pick from these folks will deliver profound insights \u2014 guarenteed. The hard part is picking one. It wasn\u2019t too hard for me, because I had been meaning to read An Introduction to the Devout Life for quite some time (which is why these reading challenges can be just the motivating force we need).\nThis book has been described as a prime manual for spiritual direction and St. Francis the ultimate spiritual director. (In fact, he wrote it as such, addressing one woman, Philothea, in her pursuit of the devout Christian life.) I certainly agree with that sentiment; moreover, I found the work to be both essentially practical and timelessly inspired. Every topic, and he covers quite a range of them, applies to pretty much every Christian\u2019s life.\nOne of the most impactful topics for me personally was his step-by-step description of the process of mental prayer. I have been trying to develop this practice in my own life, but I struggled in finding helpful resources to guide a novice. St. Francis\u2019s advice and methodical approach are exactly what a beginner needs, and I have found myself able to immediately apply his method in my prayer time.\nAnother great aspect of this book is that the 118 \u201cchapters\u201d are generally very short \u2014 most are 1-2 pages. So you could take this book in small daily chapter nuggets \u2014 kind of like a daily devotional \u2014 and spend a longer time meditating on each topic and host of insights. Here is a short list of some of the other topics covered in the book:\nThe definition of true devotion\nMeditations for mental prayer\nAn entire section on various forms of prayer\nDescriptions of the virtues and how to practice them\nEdifying friendships\nThe proper place for amusements and pleasures\nAssertaining the state of your soul: consolation and desolation\nHow to conduct spiritual examinations of ourselves\nThere are more topics than these, as well as a variety of helpful sub-topics within each of the above. Basically, everyone would come away from this book with something significant that is immediately applicable to daily life. Some books of spiritual direction are not for everyone, especially given particular tastes and vocations; but this is one that I believe should be read by every person who is striving to live a devout Christian life.\nWhat Book by a Doctor of the Church did you read for the #2017catholicreadingchallenge? If you are posting your pick on social media, remember to use the hashtag!\nPosted on November 29, 2017 by jptomeyPosted in The Reading LifeTagged 2017 Reading Challenge, An Introduction to the Devout Life, good reads, St. Francis de SalesLeave a comment",

        "raw_content": "Understanding the Career of an Oilfield Worker\nJob Reactor 28 Dec, 2017\nMany people go into the oilfield thinking that it will be a great career because they will be making a lot of money. And while earning a great paycheck is often accompanied with working in this industry, there are strings attached to the high salary. For now, let\u2019s take a quick look at the life of an oilfield worker to help you decide if you think it is a career you want to establish.\nOilfield workers aren\u2019t home very often\nSure, earning several thousand dollars each month is great, but there is a good chance you won\u2019t be home very often to spend that money. Oilfield workers tend to work on hitches, meaning they are gone for several days in a row and then they come home for several days. The most common type of hitch that an oilfield worker goes on is referred to as a 20 and 10. This means they work for 20 days straight and then come home for 10 days. And even if they are working somewhere close to home for those 20 days, they are often required to stay on their rigs, meaning they can\u2019t see their families during the hours of the day that they aren\u2019t working.\nYou\u2019re going to miss out on important events\nDo you have children? If so, then you should know that the life of an oilfield worker means that you are most likely going to miss out on a lot of your child\u2019s life, including birthdays, school events, sports games, and more.\nAlthough the paychecks are going to be good, if you don\u2019t want a lifestyle where you are away from home and missing out on important events, then the career of an oilfield worker is not going to be for you. If, however, you are okay with being away from home, then this career has room for lots of advancement and is accompanied with great pay.",

Have a look around our site, then drop in for some training\u2026..Brisbane City Judo style. Visitors are always welcome. Let us be your Judo home away from home in Brisbane.\nJudo \u2013 A Brief Explanation\nJudo is not only a sport (an Olympic Sport at that), it\u2019s a Martial Art that can be used for recreational or social activity, fun and fitness or as a practical form of self defence.\nJudo was first founded by Dr Jigaro Kano in 1882. He took what he considered to be the best techniques from the ancient art of Jujutsu, refined them and developed new techniques. As a result Judo has evolved into the modern martial art and sport practised world-wide by millions today.\nJudo is famous for its spectacular Throws, but also involves Grappling and Hold-down techniques. Senior players also use techniques of Arm Locks and Strangles.\nJudo literally means \u201cgentle way\u201d and teaches the efficient use of balance, leverage and movement, rather than brute strength to overcome an opponent. Judo teaches you to use an opponent\u2019s force against them rather than to meet them head-on, thus giving a smaller person the ability to overcome a bigger, more powerful person.\nAn aspect often overlooked as a benefit of Judo training is the technique of Break Falling, and these have many practical applications for sports or activities other than Judo.",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s face it: we all make mistakes. But there\u2019s a difference between mistakes like removing a USB thumb drive without ejecting and mistakes like leaving the cooking unattended. A series of videos we made for the initiative \u201cSafe Mistake Zone\u201d demonstrate that mistakes such as the latter can leave to devastating consequences.\nIn fact that particular mistake was a costly one last year: the residents of 579 households in Victoria learned the hard way.\nIt\u2019s hoped this campaign \u2013 a joint initiative between the Metropolitan Fire Brigade, the Country Fire Authority and the Victorian Government \u2013 will reduce that number, as well as all other preventable house fires. In fact, small mistakes cause over 3000 house fires each year in Victoria alone.\nThe videos we created were 2D animations which simulated a game show, hosted by a lively narrator: \u201cIt\u2019s time to enter the Safe Mistake Zone!\u201d Each clip then goes on to present a mistake (such as wearing old underwear twice or double dipping a chip at a party). While these mistakes may be unhygienic, they certainly can\u2019t start fires. These are deemed \u201csafe\u201d mistakes.\nThe videos then contrast these mistakes with the grave mistakes. In addition to the above example, there are the mistakes of leaving a laptop plugged in overnight and leaving a candle burning near some clothes. The terrifying dangers of these two mistakes were learned by 28 Victorians and 86 Victorians last year, respectively. The videos end with the tagline: \u201cSmall mistakes can cause fires, don\u2019t run the risk\u201d\nThe online portal features the three videos we produced, a home safety checklist, a template on which you can sketch a home evacuation plan and a fact sheet of safety tips for smoke alarms. You can view stats on how many house fires have happened in your geographical area, and the causes behind them.\nThe portal also contains a fast-paced 2D video game, in which you play a character who attempts to pick up the good habits (green), while hopping over the bad hazards (red)! High scores on the game can be shared on social networks.\nThe CFA says the online portal is a place you can go to get the mistakes out of your system where they won\u2019t start a home fire: \u201cHome fires can start and take hold within seconds, so it\u2019s vital to pay attention. It\u2019s human to make little mistakes, to forget something or get something slightly wrong.\u201d\n\u201cOne thing that unites many home fires is that it\u2019s a person making a mistake \u2013 a moment of carelessness, forgetfulness or neglect \u2013 which causes the fire.\u201d\nA series of events have been held to make the launch of the campaign, including one at Melbourne\u2019s iconic Federation Square. There, people were encouraged to make safe mistakes with the firefighters and other fire authority staff \u2013 such as posing for an embarrassing photo in the safe mistake photo booth, getting a (fake) tattoo or visiting the eccentric hairstylist they\u2019d brought in!\nEvents are also being held in Narre Warren and in the regional cities of Ballarat and Wodonga.\nWe at Jumbla are incredibly proud to have worked alongside Zoo Group on this campaign.\nCreative Director Cal says, \u201cNone of us could imagine going out into burning homes, extinguishing flames and saving lives \u2013 so it\u2019s great that we can contribute to the cause of fire prevention in our own way, using our skills in animation!\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s quite harrowing to think that around 3000 Victorian homes burn down each year, and yet most are preventable by taking simple precautions,\u201d he says.\n\u201cWhat I love about the videos is that they speak to all people, including tech-savvy young people who may not be the most cautious people around. Hopefully these messages will find a new audience, which may very well lead to fewer blazes being sparked.\u201d\nCheck out our videos here:\nVisit the Safe Mistake Zone here: there\u2019s heaps of useful info and you can have a punt at a high score!",

        "raw_content": "Creating Out of the Box Curriculum\nThe members of my list members know all too well that I am all for \"out of the box\" themes. There are a lot of pre-packaged curriculum on the market and the price can vary depending upon the components, age level, etc. I have reviewed most of the curriculum packages and found that none of them are complete, and are designed to be supplements for existing curriculum. I began writing blurbs on my list server about developing curriculum, and the most common response I received from teachers or child care providers was that they didn't feel that they were creative enough to develop their own curriculum. I believe that developing age appropriate, creative curriculum is a skill. With all skills, it takes practice and an interest in the subject to perfect it. Developing curriculum is something that will evolve from the initial concept, to a product that can be put to work in a classroom or child care setting.\nI have found during my years working with children that if I wasn't really interested in a subject, I had a harder time presenting the topic/subject/theme. I also noted that the children would not pay attention, or their attention spans would be much shorter if they were not interested in the topic/subject/theme. To remedy that, I would spend time asking the children what their interests were. A learning environment is endless, but you have to be able to present the information in a way that can be adapted to meet the needs, moods, temperments of the children.. Observing what the children's interests are, and acknowledge when a project or theme is a hit or a flop is a big deal. Always have a back up plan/theme/project so that you can redirect the attention and peak the curiosity of the children in your classroom/program. Keeping the program interesting will help eliminate discipline issues.\nBecoming Inspired: What inspires you? Do you like the change of seasons, or are there specific themes that peak your curiosity or inspire you to expand on them? If so, what are they? A lot of teachers that I know personally, will draft out what themes they will cover prior to the school year. I don't do that because you just never know when something NEW will crop up into my brain. Seasons, and holidays are generally times when the themes are pretty well lined out. Those that teach in environments where secular holidays are not celebrated, or emphasized, you may have a litlte more planning to fill in the weeks that other teachers may involve themselves in holiday planning.\nThinking Outside of the Box: Not everyone understands the concept of thinking outside of the box. These people aren't to be teased, or talked about at social gatherings. Not everyone thinks or learns in the same way. There are people who have to see examples in a book and try to follow along, and then there are those who prefer to fly by the seat of their pants. Identifying your own particular style is a prerequisite to creating your own curriculum.\nThe whole concept of thinking outside of the box is to come up with activities/themes that do not follow the same path year after year. Do you teach the same lesson plan every year? Understandably, some school districts actually require a set curriculum to be taught. However, it is possible to embellish particular components of the curriculum so that it isn't the same every year.\nHow do you do it? Trial and error. You won't know how something will work if you don't try. One of my favorite things to do is prepare a shoe box with different activities in it. I don't stick with one particular task if the mood of the children isn't right for it. It does take practice and pretty good observation skills to understand the needs of the kids. If you're a first year teacher, you're probably still feeling a little bit uneasy about what is expected of you to try new things. My advice there is to relax, and go with what your most comfortable with. If a project doesn't go over like you think it's supposed to, it isn't the end of the world.\nNot every classroom/or group of children is going to be the same. One year you may find that you have a relaxed group of children that are engaged in all activities that you present. The next year, you might have children that you would swear were abducted by aliens, as the only explanation for their behavior.",

This project comes as a follow-up his pair of 2017 albums titled FUTURE and HNDRXX. The WIZRD is also accompanied by a film of the same name that was released on January 11th. The film currently only available on Apple Music.\nBefore releasing the project, Future released two promotional singles to raise hype. The singles were \u201cCrushed Up\u201d and \u201cJumpin on a Jet\u201d and both of them were received well.\nFuture\u2019s 2018 output could be considered slower by his standards. He released only two projects in BEASTMODE 2 and Wrld On Drugs. Both of these got mixed reception from fans and critics. But it\u2019s 2019 now, so let\u2019s see what he has in store for us on his seventh studio album.\nThe Good: On my first listen through the album, there are definitely a lot of high quality and catchy tracks. The production is sensational as usual and Future recruited some great beatmakers. The features are utilized well and there aren\u2019t too many of them. I\u2019m liking what I\u2019ve heard so far, let\u2019s see if that holds up.\nThe Bad: It\u2019s quite a long project. Once you feel like it should be over, it keeps going. That isn\u2019t to say that the songs are bad, there are simply a lot of them. At times it can feel like a chore getting through the full project more than once.\nThe Good: On this project, Future brings his typical flows that we\u2019ve seen quite a bit. Needless to say, they still sound as good as ever. One thing I\u2019ve enjoyed about Future\u2019s career progression is that he isn\u2019t afraid to use higher pitched flows on his tracks. We hear that quite a bit on this project and I think it makes the songs more interesting and raises the quality of the tracks.\nThe Bad: In terms of lyrical content, Future doesn\u2019t bring much new in that category on this new album. There are a couple tracks on which we hear him more reflective themes, but for the most part it\u2019s the typical stuff about trapping, drugs, money, clothes, and cars. This isn\u2019t the biggest knock on the project as Future isn\u2019t the most lyrical rapper, but it can get annoying at times hearing the same words in most tracks.\nThe Good: As I mentioned above, the beats on this project are great. We hear Future Hendrix go in over some typical trap production but also a few beats that stand out from the rest. Some of the best beats on this project include \u201cCrushed Up\u201d, \u201cTricks On Me\u201d, \u201cTemptation\u201d, and \u201cNever Stop\u201d. Producers that contributed to this album include Tay Keith, ATL Jacob, Southside, Wheezy, and Ricky Racks.\nThe Bad: Hearing Future over typical trap production can only sound interesting for so long. While the beats on this project are high quality, a lot of them sound pretty similar. For the most part, this project\u2019s beats are comparable to 2017\u2019s FUTURE album and that isn\u2019t necessarily a good thing considering the repetitive nature of that project.\nThe Good: If you are a fan of Future, you\u2019ll be able to shuffle through this album quite a bit and hear many different tracks each time since the project is so large at 20 songs. It is honestly good enough to give a second listen through. There isn\u2019t an easily identifiable theme, so no need to worry about finding a deeper meaning behind this album.\nThe Bad: If you\u2019re looking for a cohesive and narrative driven album, this isn\u2019t it. It feels simply like a collection of songs much like some of Future\u2019s other albums. That doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s bad, it just doesn\u2019t have much of a deeper meaning behind it like some fans would have hoped. If you aren\u2019t the biggest fan of Future, I wouldn\u2019t recommend listening to the entirety of this album more than a couple times simple because of the length.\nAs with many of Future\u2019s other studio albums, it\u2019s hard to choose standout tracks simply because so many of them are so good. But after listening through this album numerous times, the tracks that stand out from the rest would be \u201cNever Stop\u201d, \u201cTemptation\u201d, \u201cCall the Coroner\u201d, \u201cKrazy but True\u201d, and \u201cUnicorn Purp\u201d.\nWhen Future first announced this project, I was really hyped for it. It had been quite a bit of time since we last received a proper studio album from Future, with 2017\u2019s HNDRXX being the previous. That album was great, so I expected Future to follow it up quite well after a somewhat lackluster 2018 output.\nI wasn\u2019t necessarily disappointed by this project, but it could have been better in my opinion. There are some great tracks for sure, but way too many fillers that didn\u2019t need to be included. The inclusion of 20 tracks may be another outcome of the streaming era that sees artists wanting maximizing their streams/sales.\nThis is by no means a bad project and Future fans will certainly love it. But from a critical standpoint, I\u2019m not too sure where Future goes from here. It seems that he\u2019s done most of the things he set out to do in the hip hop game, and the quality of the music validates that point. One thing I know for sure is that Future will continue to drop bloated albums that his fans will eat up, only to receive more mid reviews from critics.\nPart 2: Top 10 Hip Hop Albums of 2018\nContinuing right where we left off, here are the top 6 hip hop albums of 2018.

Feel free to message me on Instagram @youngthuggamanekyle and give me your feedback on my list.\nAlbums 6-1\n6. Victory Lap \u2013 Nipsey Hussle\n2018 started off with a bang when Nipsey Hussle dropped his highly anticipated debut studio album Victory Lap in February. The project, which contains 16 songs, is a modern west coast G-funk-influenced masterpiece. This is essential listening for fans of west coast hip hop that has both substance and swagger, and the skill to back it up. This is one of the best west coast releases in 2018 by far.\n5. Daytona \u2013 Pusha T\nIn April 2018, Kanye West announced that his label GOOD Music would be releasing a series of 5 albums starting in May and ending in June. The first of these albums to be released was Pusha T\u2019sDaytona. The album followed up Push\u2019s 2015 effort King Push \u2013 Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude. It was originally supposed to be called King Push, but was renamed before release. The album contains 7 tracks, each produced by Kanye West. This album is so good because of the sheer quality of each track. Pusha spits some of his hardest bars ever over super fresh beats that don\u2019t get old even if you listen to the tracks over and over. This is an amazing album that I would 100% recommend.\n4. KOD \u2013 J. Cole\nTo get straight to the point, J. Cole\u2019s fifth studio album KOD was one of the best of 2018 for many reasons. It is a concept album that discusses drug abuse, addiction, taxation, and much more. The project contains different elements of hip hop including jazz rap, trap, and conscious rap. It was especially relevant because of all of the overdoses that keep occuring in the hip hop community and world in general. Cole also took this album on the road and performed sold-out shows all across the country, including in Utah. This album took J. Cole to a new level that he hadn\u2019t explored until now, and the only way for him to go is up.\n3. Astroworld \u2013 Travis Scott\nThere were many artists that broke out in 2018, but none became bigger than Houston\u2019s own Travis Scott. La Flame unleashed his long-awaited third studio album in August after working on it for almost three years. Astroworld contained 17 tracks with features from Drake, Gunna, Kid Cudi, Frank Ocean, The Weeknd, and many more. The album took listeners inside Scott\u2019s mind and allowed them to feel what he experienced when the Astroworld theme park in Houston was closed. The project performed well commercially and was met with critical acclaim from many outlets. This is without a doubt a standout project in a year full of so much amazing music. Scott is currently in the midst of a world tour in support of the album.\n2. CARE FOR ME \u2013 Saba\nWhile the casual hip hop listener might not be familiar with Chicago rapper Saba, that should not discount the skills that he possesses behind the mic. Saba has been active in the game for 6 years now, steadily growing his fan base each year. Care For Me is by far his most personal work yet. The album details the events leading up to the murder of Saba\u2019s cousin John Walt in February 2017. Topics discussed on the project include depression, anxiety, and the emotions Saba felt while the whole ordeal was happening. Care For Me has received mass critical acclaim from critics far and wide, with praise stemming from the topics discussed and the production quality of the tracks. If you haven\u2019t checked the project out yet, you are severely missing out and I\u2019d suggest listening to it as soon as possible.\n1. Kids See Ghosts \u2013 Kanye West & Kid Cudi\nKids See Ghosts was the third album released out of five by Kanye West\u2019s label GOOD Music in the summer of 2018. The album is 7 tracks long and has a run time of 23:53. Upon release, it was met with widespread acclaim from many critics. Some of the biggest praise that the album receives stems from how great West and Cudi sound together. The use of other musical styles such as psychedelic, rock, and rap rock are high points of praise as well. Overall, this project is the best of 2018 because of the influence that it has already begun seeing in the musical world. Check this album out immediately if you have not heard it yet.\nOverall, 2018 was an amazing year for hip hop. It was one for the ages because so many high quality projects were released. 2019 is already shaping up to be another great year, but only time will show us what is in store.\nAt the end of every year, there are always some people that regard the year as \u201cthe best year in hip hop since [insert random good year for hip hop]\u201d. I usually avoid making those types of statements, but I can\u2019t help it this time around. 2018 was truly a memorable year for so many reasons.\nMany amazing bodies of work were released in all different parts of the hip hop spectrum this year. This is by no means a fully cumulative list, it is simply my top 10 hip hop releases of the year. I also included some honorable mentions that almost cracked the top 10. Without further adieu, here is part one of the list.\nEven though this is a top 10 albums of the year list, there were plenty of albums that came out this year that were good but just outside the top 10. Here are 3 projects that nearly snuck their way into the top 10.\nTha Carter V \u2013 Lil Wayne\nThis highly anticipated album was one of the best surprises of 2018 for many reasons. It had a mix of older tracks as well as some that were clearly newer. The project contained 23 tracks, which many considered kind of bloated. However, most of the songs were quality and showed why Wayne is still one of the best pure rappers out there. If it was cut down to 15-18 tracks, this project may very well have earned a place in the top 10 of 2018.\nRedemption \u2013 Jay Rock\nAfter a few years of crafting this new project, TDE mainstay Jay Rock finally released his highly anticipated new album in June 2018. On this project, we heard Jay Rock attempt to crossover a bit into the mainstream realm with tracks such as \u201cTap Out\u201d, \u201cWin\u201d, and \u201cKnock It Off\u201d. Regardless of his attempt at becoming more mainstream, this is Jay Rock\u2019s best album thus far. This was a last minute scratch from my top 10, but it\u2019s still a very good project.\nI Am > I Was \u2013 21 Savage\nIt\u2019s safe to say that 21 Savage ended 2018 with a bang when he dropped his sophomore album. We got a small taste of what 21 had been cooking up from his features on Metro Boomin\u2019s album Not All Heroes Wear Capes. In terms of trap albums, this is almost as good as it gets in 2018. However, it isn\u2019t simply a trap album. Savage was able to refine his sound and improve in every way on this project. It was a super hard decision for me to not put this stellar project in the top 10, but you\u2019ll soon find out why it wasn\u2019t included.\n10. Championships \u2013 Meek Mill\nIf we\u2019re talking about best stories of 2018, we have to include Meek Mill\u2019s release from prison. Following his release in April 2018, Mill went back into the lab and recorded his \u201ccomeback\u201d album. The album was released in November 2018 to positive reviews from critics, and it is very easy to see why. With an all star feature lineup including Cardi B, Jay Z, Future, and former foe Drake, this album just reeks of success and realness. This is probably Meek\u2019s best project yet, so check it out.\n9. DiCaprio 2 \u2013 J.I.D\nDreamville Records artist J.I.D released his sophomore album DiCaprio 2 earlier this year to critical acclaim. The project contains 14 tracks with features from J. Cole, Joey Badass, 6lack, and more. One of the reasons that this project is so special is because of the versatility that J.I.D displays on many of the tracks. For example, songs like \u201cOff Deez\u201d and \u201cWorkin Out\u201d don\u2019t sound similar in the slightest, and yet they fit perfectly well on the album. This album introduced the J.I.D to the masses and it\u2019ll be interesting to see what direction he goes in next.\n8. Taboo \u2013 Denzel Curry\nFlorida\u2019s Denzel Curry released his third studio album Taboo earlier this year after working on it for over 2 years. The project is split into 3 parts; Act 1: Light, Act 2: Gray, and Act 3: Dark. Similar to J.I.D on DiCaprio 2, Denzel Curry conveys the topics he is discussing in a variety of different ways and they all work together to form a cohesive and interesting project. Standouts from this fantastic project include \u201cCLOUT COBAIN\u201d, \u201cBLACK BALLOONS\u201d, and \u201cPERCS\u201d.\n7. TESTING \u2013 ASAP Rocky\nEver since he entered the rap game 6 years ago, ASAP Rocky has been an enigma. Each project that he\u2019s released has become subsequently more experimental. TESTING features an aesthetic that matches its name: the testing of new styles. This project wasn\u2019t as well-received by fans as I\u2019m sure Rocky would have liked, but it is still amazing nonetheless. To be honest, the project just works. Everything from Rocky\u2019s vocals, the featured artist lineup, the production, and the atmosphere sound so good together. I applaud ASAP Rocky for taking a chance with this album because it paid off.\nThat\u2019s it for part 1 of my top 10 hip hop albums of 2018. Be on the lookout for part 2 coming soon!",

        "title": "A Threat to Democracy \u2014 Labour Briefing",
        "raw_content": "Matthew Willgress\nIN OCTOBER, THE FAR-RIGHT Jair Bolsonaro was elected president of Brazil, beating the left\u2019s candidate, Fernando Haddad, in a result which sent shockwaves around Latin America and globally. His election was a triumph for the Trump administration, welcoming an ally against less compliant governments in the region. Vice-president Pence had warmly greeted him prior to the campaign.\nAnd while he posed as an \u2018outsider,\u2019 the massive amounts of money spent on his campaign - including a dirty social media campaign from the Steve Bannon textbook - are just one signal of how he is in fact the candidate of the mega-rich, whom he will now reward with a privatisation bonanza.\nHis victory also presents a major threat to democratic, social and economic rights, fuelling violence and repression against the left and the labour movement. Days before his election, Bolsonaro said if he was elected \u201cleftists will have to... leave the country or go to jail,\u201d adding \u201creds will be banished.\u201d\nHis reactionary views have been widely covered.\nThere\u2019s sexism: he told a congresswoman \u201cI wouldn\u2019t rape you because you don\u2019t deserve it.\u201d\nHomophobia: he said he would be \u201cincapable of loving a homosexual son... I would prefer my son to die in an accident than show up with a moustachioed man.\u201d\nRacism: speaking about visiting Quilombo (a territory inhabited by Afro-Brazilian descendants of escaped slaves) he said \u201cThey do nothing. They\u2019re not even good for procreation.\u201d\nBolsonaro\u2019s programme also encourages state violence, giving armed police forces a free hand to shoot and kill. The actions of his supporters, from those on the streets to regional and national politicians, have also caused alarm. In the campaign, there was a spate of violence against journalists, activists and others. Romualdo Rosairo Da Costa was stabbed to death in a bar after proclaiming support for rival candidate Haddad. A women carrying an LGBT flag and wearing an anti-Bolsonaro t-shirt had a swastika carved into her skin. A transgender woman was beaten in the street by Bolsonaro supporters.\nThis follows a pattern of increased violence and repression since the 2016 \u2018parliamentary coup,\u2019 which saw right wing senators remove the elected president Dilma Rousseff and install Michel Temer\u2019s hardline austerity presidency. Most notably this included the assassination of black human rights campaigner Marielle Franco and the jailing of former president Lula, who would have won this election had he not been barred from standing.\nBolsonaro has declared Lula will \u201crot in prison\u201d and after his election said he intends to treat social movements as terrorists, singling out the Landless Workers Movement.\nEven before taking office, Bolsonaro has been working closely with the outgoing coup president to fast-track harsh attacks on civil liberties. The left, labour and social movements have deep roots, so these attacks are central if he is to weaken their capacity to resist his agenda.\nLegislation is currently being debated which could allow for peaceful demonstrations to be deemed terrorism and social movements to be deemed criminal organisations. These changes, and a decree issued by the current president to create an \u2018intelligence task force\u2019 involving the army, air force, navy, federal police and government, have been condemned by the Sao Paulo Lawyers' Union as unconstitutional, illegal and having extremely serious consequences. Alongside Bolsonaro\u2019s attacks on civil liberties, he is planning a further intensification of the coup government\u2019s harsh austerity measures, including offering up the country\u2019s oil resources to US multinationals.\nBolsonaro also has far right allies in powerful positions throughout Brazil who threaten repression and violence. Wilson Witzel, the new governor-elect of Rio de Janeiro, for example, has outlined how the Rio police, already among the world\u2019s most violent, will have a carte blanche to kill even more than they already do in the poorest areas. Over 1,000 were assassinated by the police in this state in 2017.\nThe left, social, labour and other progressive movements are, and will be, resisting though, with large street protests. At the encouragement of our comrades in Brazil, and with the support of Labour MPs, trade unions and many others, the Brazil Solidarity Initiative has been set up to stand shoulder to shoulder with those Brazilians fighting the far-right. Please support us.\nMatt Willgress edited No Coup in Brazil, a blog site which has now launched the Brazil Solidarity Initiative.

        "title": "The crisis of democratic socialism in Europe \u2014 Labour Briefing",
        "raw_content": "LAST SEPTEMBER, the German SPD, once the jewel of European democratic socialism, got its lowest vote since the Second World War - just 20%. The German far right made huge gains as the SPD paid the price for four years of coalition with Merkel. After much internal soul-searching, the party went back into coalition to continue the policies of labour flexibility that so alienated its base. There is no reason to suppose the SPD won\u2019t continue to decline and the far right won\u2019t continue its surge.\nIn March, the Italian Democratic Party, the inheritor of the once mighty Communist Party, polled just 19% of the vote after leading a coalition that foisted EU-directed austerity measures on its core voters. Rejecting this an estimated two million plus voters switched to the Five Star Movement, who offered some escape from the EU straitjacket, with better pensions and a proposed citizen\u2019s income scheme - very popular in the impoverished south. Now they are forming a \u2018populist\u2019 coalition, with the racist League, whose leader Matteo Salvini is the new interior minister in charge of immigration - a terrifying prospect, given his threat of mass deportations.\nAcross western Europe, the evidence of collapse is inescapable. The Netherlands\u2019 Labour Party, which produced several of the country\u2019s post-war prime ministers, is a broken shell. After five years alongside the conservatives in an austerity coalition which it promised not to join, Labour got its worst showing ever in the 2017 general election, reduced from 29 to nine seats, making it the seventh largest grouping in Parliament. In local elections in March 2018, the party got just 7% of the vote.\nIn France, last year\u2019s legislative elections saw the Socialist Party reduced to 6% of the vote and just 29 seats! Since 2007, the party\u2019s membership has plummeted from 260,000 to 102,000, and of those left, only 37,000 voted for new leader Olivier Faure.\nIn Ireland, the Labour Party, formerly the junior party in coalition government with Fine Gael after getting its best ever showing of 37 seats in 2011, fell to just seven deputies in 2016\u2019s general election, its lowest-ever share in the D\u00e1il.\nIn Greece, the democratic socialist PASOK got 6% of the vote in the September 2015 general election. At that point, the radical left Syriza, first elected earlier that year, imposed a programme of harsh austerity at the demand of the European \u2018troika\u2019. Now opinion polls show the government trailing ten points behind the right wing New Democracy, with the openly fascist New Dawn third.\nThe Pasokification of western European democratic socialist parties is happening. Years of implementing austerity have thrown them into electoral and organisational meltdown. In western Europe\u2019s larger countries only two parties are bucking the trend.\nOne is Portugal, where a \u20ac78bn bailout in 2011 was accompanied by brutal austerity, inflicted by a centre-right coalition. Education spending was cut by 23% and unemployment reached 18%. But this failed policy ended two and a half years ago when a Socialist-led coalition of the left began an anti-austerity programme, which within the year halved the budget deficit and created sustained economic growth and falling unemployment. The Socialists have gained ten points in opinion polls since the 2013 general election, opening up a 13 point margin over their right wing opponents. In local elections last year, they won 160 mayors, 10 more than in 2013, and 38% of the votes - the first time since 1985 that the governing party had won nationwide local elections.\nThe other case is Britain\u2019s Labour Party. Here a similar decline was underway following New Labour\u2019s defeat in 2010. Had any of the centrist contenders for the party leadership in 2015 succeeded, there is every reason to suppose this decline would have accelerated into a full-blown crisis. Fortunately, Labour members were smart enough to see from the evidence, especially in Scotland, where Labour, once the majority party, was reduced to just one seat in 2015, that breaking the austerity consensus was key to growing the membership and winning more votes.\nLast year\u2019s election result confirmed that. It also saw the collapse of UKIP\u2019s right wing \u2018populism\u2019.\nThe crisis in European democratic socialist parties began long before they became recent purveyors of austerity. From the 1990s on, many of them embraced the free market and the rampant individualism that underpinned it. Social solidarity, the guiding principle of the welfare state, was abandoned in favour of workfare targeted at an \u2018underclass\u2019, created by preceding waves of attacks on the working class.\nCommitments to social equality were reduced to equal opportunities. Even in the boom years New Labour failed to eradicate child poverty.\nThe economic crash, a priceless opportunity to demonstrate the perils of unfettered capitalism, found all these parties ideologically bankrupt. They had nothing to say - but others did. Right wing narratives about \u2018living beyond our means\u2019 and the burden of immigration became the dominant response, in Europe as in the US, where the clear Democrat lead at the start of 2018 is evaporating.\nIf the democratic socialist parties of western Europe are to return from the political fringe, they will need to undergo an ideological and organisational revolution similar to that engulfing the UK Labour Party. Anti-austerity may not be enough if it\u2019s not part of a convincing narrative of how we got here and how to get out of it. One of the important aspects of the 2015 Labour manifesto was its break from the Thatcherite individualism championed by New Labour and its reassertion of collective values.\nFor the first time in decades, these ideas are beginning to seep into the wider social consciousness. Support for public ownership in rail and energy is now running three to one in favour - even Tories are beginning to endorse it.\nBut this is just the beginning of a bolder attempt to remake society, a point noted in a recent essay on Corbynomics in The Economist. The author observed: \u201cThatcher declared: \u2018Economics are the method; the object is to change the heart and soul.\u2019 The Corbynites have something similar in mind.\u201d\nThat\u2019s right. Ideas on alternative models of ownership, dismissed as barmy until recently, are now entering the mainstream.\nThe opportunity to transform society is not problem-free, however. The internal ructions within Labour, the unremitting attacks from its opponents and the demonisation of its leader are all part of the price to be paid to make any of this remotely possible. But what alternative is there? The road taken by Jeremy Corbyn\u2019s Labour Party is the only one that offers a way back to power to the socialist parties of Europe - and more importantly a path out of the crisis for society.\nIn early June there was another general election, this time in Slovenia. Right wing nationalists, supporters of Hungary\u2019s authoritarian regime, came first with 25% of the vote - although only 52% voted. Slovenia\u2019s a small country - but one bordering on Italy and Austria, both countries where the racist right are now in government - and another sign of Europe\u2019s rightward lurch. The choices are clear.\nMike Phipps\u2019 For the Many: Preparing Labour for Power is published by OR Books.",

        "raw_content": "A word of gratitude is coming but I\u2019d like to share a short preamble first.\nI\u2019ve been MIA for the past six weeks at LApastor.com as I had some mysterious 404 error when I tried to bring up my blog. After several attempts to fix this (not really), in the midst of the busyness of Easter in April and house-hunting in May, I simply took it as a \u201csign\u201d to take a short sabbatical from blogging. The 404 error disappeared last week so now I have no more excuses!\nI racked my brain about what has gone on the past several weeks to determine what to write about. So much has been happening that I couldn\u2019t decide. There have been many highs and lows recently that would be worthy blog fodder. So I\u2019m keeping it simple.\nHaving been at the Bridge in downtown. L.A. for just over one year, I am simply grateful for the blessings we have received in this short time. Perhaps you can think of what you\u2019re grateful for as I mention a few things. I\u2019m just trying to apply Colossians 3:15 for the next few minutes.\nI\u2019m grateful for partners like Bel Air Presbyterian Church, the main church partner that is supporting the Bridge at Union Church.. Today I\u2019m spending the day with their pastoral staff and have been blown away by their generosity in supporting us. St. Andrew\u2019s Presbyterian Church, my previous church, sent three key leaders to encourage me and pray about possibilities of partnership in the near future. Fred Harrell, City Church of San Francisco, visited L.A. and got me excited about ways we can resource one another. The list can go one of the many exciting opportunities to partner with fantastics organizations that are seeking to bless the city like Purpose Built Communities, Apartment Life, I Am Second, Los Angeles Mission, Union Rescue Mission and Trees on San Pedro.\nI\u2019m so grateful for the hundreds of visitors who have come through our church doors this past year. I do not take them for granted. Each one is a special person whom God has created that God has placed in the city to do something special. The fact that about 100 of them have stuck around this past year is an incredible blessing as we continue to build a multi-ethnic, multi-generational, and multi-socioeconomic church that seeks to Love God and Bless the City.\nOf course, I\u2019m grateful for my family and friends. Kati has blessed our church with hundreds of hours of her ministry gifts. Avery looks forward to coming to church and seeing all of friends. Yes, we have had many ups and downs, but we can truly say we have seen God\u2019s faithfulness and experienced his blessings through the challenging journey this past year.\nI\u2019ll stop there. What are you grateful for? Where have you seen God the past 12 months? Where do you long to see God more clearly in your life?",

        "raw_content": "Home / Posts tagged \"Active Learning\"\nRandom Thoughts About Resistance To Active Learning\n07Nov By danielsv\n\u201cActive learning is generally defined as any instructional method that engages students in the learning process. In short, active learning requires students to do meaningful learning activities and think about what they are doing . . . .\u201d Specifically, it \u201crefers to activities that are introduced into the classroom.\u201d It includes but is not limited to \u201csmall group discussion, debate, posing questions to the class, think-pair-share activities, short written exercises,\u201d and generally involves in-class problem solving, student formulation of their own questions, and in-class brainstorming.\u201d[1]\nIf you aren\u2019t doing things described above or like the things described above, then you aren\u2019t doing active learning. Period. So, in this regard \u201cinteractive\u201d classroom atmospheres are not substitutes for active learning classrooms. Interactive learning simply means that a student interacts with a professor. You ask a Socratic question and the student answers and boom you are engaged in interactive learning. You have a lively humorous bent to your presentation and again this satisfies the definition of interactive.\nInteractive classroom techniques still tend to be professor driven and are simply thinly disguised versions of the typical classroom hierarchy which is the opposite of active learning. If you find yourself describing effective teaching around observations of your class room that include, \u201cI was funny,\u201d \u201cthey liked my slides,\u201d \u201cI was so energetic they had to pay attention,\u201d or even \u201cI gave them context for what they were learning,\u201d you may be engaged in some other pedagogical process but not active learning.\nAs long as you continue to believe that effective learning depends on your mouth moving or you being the source of the knowledge or even the source of the understanding of the material then you cannot be engaging in active learning. The hardest part about transitioning to active learning is realizing that given the right guidance or exercise structure, the students in your classrooms are all capable of gaining the knowledge you are seeking to bestow upon them with less direct involvement from you than you currently believe is necessary.\nThis is a humbling experience for most of us. It may be high time to really think if ego and our need to be necessary prevents us from letting go and whole heartedly engaging in active learning. The doctors can\u2019t be wrong after all as there is a massive trend in medical schools to make active learning the primary pedagogical technique. Of course, they are meeting resistance as well because their equivalent of Langdell is reaching out from the grave with a heavy inertial hand. It is worth remembering that Langdell prescribed Socratic teaching for law students about ten years after the Emancipation Proclamation. I hope that we do not feel unnecessarily bound to pedagogies and norms from that era.\n[1] https://www.everettcc.edu/files/administration/institutional-effectiveness/institutional-research/outcomeassess-active-learning.pdf\nPosted in Teaching Ideas Tagged Active Learning, Idea of the Month, Learning, Students",

Current and future applications of genetically modified crops\n\u0410\u0432\u0442\u043e\u0440: Halford N.G. (ed.)\nThe beginning of the 20th century saw the rediscovery of Gregor Mendel\u2019s work on the\ninheritance of phenotypic traits in plants. Mendel\u2019s work laid the foundations of modern,\nscientific plant breeding by enabling plant breeders to predict how traits brought into\nbreeding lines would be inherited, and what had to be done to ensure that the lines would\nbreed true. As a result, scientific plant breeding from the early part of the 20th century\nonwards brought huge increases in crop yield, without which current human population\nlevels would already be unsustainable.\nIn the following decades, science made great strides in the elucidation of the molecular\nprocesses that underpin inheritance; genes, the units of inheritance, were linked with\nproteins, DNA was shown to be the material of inheritance, the structure of DNA was\nresolved, DNA polymerases, ligases and restriction enzymes were discovered, recombinant\nDNA molecules were created and techniques for determining the nucleotide\nsequence of a DNA molecule were developed.\nPlant scientists were quick to exploit the new tools for manipulating DNA molecules\nand also made the astounding discovery that a naturally occurring bacterium, Agrobacterium\ntumefaciens, actually inserted a piece of its own DNA into that of a plant cell\nduring its normal infection process. As a result, by the mid-1980s everything was in place\nto allow foreign genes to be introduced into crop plants and scientists began to predict a\nsecond green revolution in which crop yield and quality would be improved dramatically\nusing this new technology.",

        "raw_content": "[1-20] of 215 Arms quotes\nArms in the hands of individual citizens may be used at individual discretion for the defense of the country, the over-throw of tyranny, or in private self-defense.~ John Adams\nMr. Madison has introduced his long expected amendments... The rights of conscience, of bearing arms, of changing the government, are declared to be inherent in the people.~ Fisher Ames\nAll and everybody, this is my claim, fifty feet on the gulch, cordin to Clear Creek District Law, backed up by shotgun amendments.~ Anonymous Gold Miner\nFor man, when perfected, is the best of animals, but, when separated from law and justice, he is the worst of all; since armed injustice is the more dangerous, and he is equipped at birth with the arms of intelligence and with moral qualities which he may use for the worst ends.~ Aristotle\nAnd, lastly, to vindicate these rights, when actually violated and attacked, the subjects of England are entitled, in the first place, to the regular administration and free course of justice in the courts of law; next to the right of petitioning the king and parliament for redress of grievances; and, lastly, to the right of having and using arms for self preservation and defense.~ Sir William Blackstone\n[It is] a natural Right which the people have reserved to themselves, confirmed by the [English] Bill of rights, to keep arms for their own defense; and as Mr. Blackstone observes, it is to be made use of when the sanctions of Society and law are found insufficient to restrain the violence of oppression.~ Boston Evening Post\nFirearms, especially long guns, occupy a noble place in Canadian history since they are no doubt responsible for the exploitation of a vast and wild territory that had long remained untouched. From 1534 until 1979 (!), the importance of firearms remained uncontested. More than a simple tool of everyday life, they became truly a phenomenon of civilization. At all times and whoever he was, the Canadian was directly in contact with firearms, and he cannot be imagined otherwise. Even today, this symbol of liberty remains intimately related to wide, open spaces, and to a tolerant society. It is the distinctive mark of today's and yesterday's America. Here, in New France, let's repeat it, it is not only soldiers and nobles who have the possibility or privilege to bear arms. Century-old Canadian customs recognize equally to everybody the legal and moral right to acquire a firearm and to use it freely and noncoercively.~ Russel Bouchard\nThe Bill of Rights is a literal and absolute document. The First Amendment doesn't say you have a right to speak out unless the government has a 'compelling interest' in censoring the Internet. The Second Amendment doesn't say you have the right to keep and bear arms until some madman plants a bomb. The Fourth Amendment doesn't say you have the right to be secure from search and seizure unless some FBI agent thinks you fit the profile of a terrorist. The government has no right to interfere with any of these freedoms under any circumstances.~ Harry Browne\nNo kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion.~ James Burgh\nGuns are used for self-defense somewhere between 800,000 and 3.6 million times per year .... Using firearm crime and defensive gun use figures most favorable to advocates for stricter gun control, ... the benefits from defensive gun uses exceed the cost of violent firearm crimes ... by between $90 million and $3.5 billion. Using the most credible estimate for defensive gun uses, the benefits range from $1 billion to $38 billion. Putting these dollar figures in more human terms: Guns save lives. The fact is that the best defense against violence is an armed response. For example, women faced with assault are 2.5 times less likely to suffer serious injury if they defend themselves with a gun rather than responding with other weapons or by offering no resistance. ... [P]ersons defending themselves with guns during an assault are injured only 12 percent of the time, compared to 25 percent for those using other weapons, 27 percent for those offering no resistance and nearly 26 percent of those who flee. ... [F]irearms are the safest, most effective way to protect oneself against criminal activity -- which is why American police officers carry guns rather than going unarmed or merely carrying knives.~ H.

Village of Freeport was in the process of arranging an \u201cElectrical Show.\u201d It was scheduled to open on December 3rd and to run for three weeks after. Displays were prepared to educate Freeport residents as to the many uses of electric in everyday life, such as its use in cooking and heating a home. The exhibit was to be held at 58 South Main St. and the village hoped the display would promote the use of electrical current, as at the time of this display, many residents did not utilize the power generated by the municipal power plant. It was noted that if more residents and commercial enterprises utilized electrical power, the cost for it could be reduced to be lower than using gas.\nFreeport Choral Society to Give Big Concert in January\nThe Freeport Choral Society, a group of singers from Freeport and neighboring hamlets, was preparing to give a concert in January.

        "raw_content": "Writing Fiction to Get Rich\nSome of us write simply because we can't not write. Ideas grab us, move us, and demand to be written. We strive to make it as real as we possibly can, to improve at our craft every day, hopefully to make it into the realm of literature as well as entertainment. We want to craft an entire world where the places and people are so real that the reader doesn't feel like he's reading a book as much as he is going to another place. In the lofty world of literature that we strive for, the reader will still think about the book after reading that last page. It's our gift to the reader, something to take with him. Given sufficient skill, this can even happen long after we are dead.\nThen we learn that doesn't sell. Oh, there are exceptions. Some novelists make a living by consistently writing quality literature. But, there are quite a few best sellers who have no such goals. They write for money, and they make it.\nEven the writer who has written great literature has trouble marketing it that way. We have to look at our \"target audience.\" Who will buy this book? Let me see, our heroine survived spousal abuse, so there's an audience. There's a suicide, so we can get the bereavement crowd. Where's the setting? We can get a local audience. The hero's a cop. Maybe the teen boys will go for that. Nah, too light on action. But there's a romance. Maybe we'll market to the romance readers. Give the hero bedroom eyes and pass him off as a romantic hero. Yeah, that might work.\nBut if you want to write to get rich, even that's not enough. Nah, the time to think about your reader is before you write the book, not after.\nThrow in lots of gratuitous sex, preferably extramarital. One (and only one) character who flirts and is sorely tempted and walks away from \"love\" to remain true to his wife.\nUse taboo words for shock value. Ram, hump, scream, oral sex, voluptuous, female orgasm (the great revelation). Make sure a lot of your leads enjoy sex. Horny women are a good way to pull in the readers you want. We all know men are horny, but most of your readers haven't discovered that some women enjoy sex too. Tell them this. Give the female readers a balm for their consciences and the male readers someone to dream about.\nYour heroine should be tough, sweet, sensitive, and very horny, and has to think she's not attractive even though every guy in the book except her husband falls off his chair with a tent in his pants.\nDon't let the length of a novel faze you. Just throw some people on the stage, move them around a bit, and get them into bed. Then, change the rules so they have to move around a bit again and get them back into bed. (It doesn't always have to be a bed. Office desks and car seats work too.) When the book's long enough, stop. Don't worry about the \"climax,\" because people are climaxing all over the place.\nExotic locales. Foreign countries with beaches. Lots of rich people. Remember that you're writing for the lowest common denominator, because they spend most of the money that you're trying to reel in. Make it sleazy. No one ever went broke underestimating the public.\nHow to publish? To do it right, write the sales pitch before you write the book. Make sure the book follows the pitch and the formula. If your cover letter alone has eight typos, no problem. Nobody cares. The publisher will wanna rush this baby to print and get you, or an attractive stand-in, doing as many TV appearances as possible before the book reviewers have time to draw breath. Heck, your target market doesn't read book reviews anyway! Also keep in mind that once that reader buys your book, you've won. They won't get a refund just because you're illiterate. So don't worry about hiring an editor. Hire a publicist!\nThink Hollywood. You want your book to become a movie. It doesn't have to be a good movie, because most of them aren't. It just has to sell, baby, sell! Write parts for all the hottest stars. True, today's hottest stars will have faded by the time they start filming your movie, but no matter. Someone just like them will replace them.\nI've been doing it wrong for all these years. I started writing over 20 years ago, and the five books I have on the shelves are enough to make it a hobby that barely pays for itself. Meanwhile, I work at a job for my money. But if you follow my advice, you won't make the same mistakes I have. You'll get rich!",

        "raw_content": "Top 10 Scientists who Committed Suicide\nJT October 7, 2007\nSo often, in the field of the arts and sciences, the greatest minds live tortured lives. In many cases this has lead to self-murder. This is a list of the ten greatest scientist suicides.\n10. Viktor Meyer\nViktor Meyer was a German chemist and significant contributor to both organic and inorganic chemistry. Born in Berlin in 1848, he is best known for inventing an apparatus to measure vapour densities, the Viktor Meyer apparatus, and for discovering thiophene.\nA hugely gifted chemist, Meyer was a workaholic whose taxing lifestyle took tolls on his nervous system. After a series of mental breakdowns, he killed himself by taking cyanide in 1897, at the age of 49.\nAn excellent gift for all the chemistry lovers is a Periodic Table of Elements Coffee Mug at Amazon.com!\n9. David Kelly\nDavid Christopher Kelly was an employee of the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (MoD), an expert in biological warfare and a former United Nations weapons inspector in Iraq.\nHis doubts about the veracity of the WMD dossier compiled by the Blair Government caused a political scandal, and he was forced to attend a Parliamentary committee hearing about the remarks. A modest man, David Kelly was savagely grilled by the Committee, and spoke in a voice so soft that the air conditioning had to be turned off so that his words could be heard.\nOn July 17th 2003, Kelly went on his daily walk through the Oxfordshire country, and, according to the official report, swallowed up to 29 painkillers and slashed his wrist.\nHowever, many figures, including MPs and paramedics, continue to raise doubts over the exact cause of Kelly\u2019s death, with some going to so far as to say it was murder.\n8. Ludwig Boltzmann\nLudwig Eduard Boltzmann was an Austrian physicist famous for his founding contributions in the fields of statistical mechanics and statistical thermodynamics. He was one of the most important advocates for atomic theory when that scientific model was still highly controversial.\nBorn in Vienna, February 20th 1844, Boltzmann attended the University of Vienna, gaining a PhD degree at age 22, and becoming Professor of Mathematical Physics at the University of Graz at age 25. In 1893, he achieved his goal of becoming Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Vienna, succeeding his old mentor, Joseph Stefan.\nMost likely suffering from bipolar disorder, Boltzmann took his own life while on holiday with his family. He is buried in Vienna in a tombstone that reads S=k*logW.\n7. Valeri Legasov\nValeri Alekseevich Legasov was a prominent Soviet scientist in the field of inorganic chemistry, a member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. He is most famous for his work as the chief of the investigation committee of the Chernobyl disaster on April 26th 1986.\nAfter the Chernobyl disaster, Legasov became a key member of the government commission formed to investigate the causes of the catastrophe and to plan the liquidation of its consequences. In August, 1986 he presented the report of the Soviet delegation at the special meeting of International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna. His report struck the Western colleagues with the depth of analysis and full honesty in discussing the extent and consequences of the tragedy.\nLegasov\u2019s open and firm stance, however, caused a lot of trouble for him at home: the Soviet government was very uncomfortable with the frankness and rigor of his position. As a result, when in 1986-1987 his name was twice entered into the list for those to be awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor in recognition for his work, both times it was rejected: the second time his name was crossed out by Gorbachev himself.\nHaving exposed himself to the radiation on the ground of Chernobyl, Legasov\u2019s health began to rapidly deteriorate, which coupled with his depression over his lack of recognition, led him to take his own life on April 27th 1988.\nOn September 20, 1996 Russian President Boris Yeltsin conferred to Legasov the honorary title of Hero of the Russian Federation (posthumously) for his \u201ccourage and heroism\u201d shown in the course of the liquidation of the after-effects of Chernobyl disaster.\n6. Hans Berger\nHans Berger, born in Neuses, Germany in 1873, is best known as the first person to record electroencephalograms (EEGs) from human subjects and is the discoverer of the rhythmic Alpha brain waves.\nBerger studied medicine, neurology, psychiatry and psychology at the University of Jena. He concentrated on neurology, and following the pioneering work done by British scientist Richard Caton on animals, successfully recorded the first EEG from a human in 1924. This allowed him to discover the alpha wave and described, for the first time, the effect epilepsy had on the brain.\nDisturbed by the rise of Nazism and the effects of the Second World War, Berger hanged himself on June 1st 1941.\nDiscover a universe full of ridiculously interesting facts with Listverse.com\u2019s Epic Book of Mind-Boggling Top 10 Lists\n5. Edwin Armstrong\nEdwin Armstrong, born on December 18th 1890, was an American electrical engineer, who invented FM radio. He first began work on the idea of FM radio at university, and patented his idea in 1914.\nHowever numerous patent disputes, and a blocking attempt by the Radio Corporation of America, who thought it would destroy AM radio, halted its advancement.\nDetermined that FM radio would never succeed, Armstrong jumped from the 13th floor of his apartment in 1954. He was 63 at the time.\n4. Nicolas Leblanc\nNicolas Leblanc was a French chemist and surgeon, famed for being the first person to manufacture soda from common salt.\nBorn in 1742, Leblanc developed an interest in medicine at a young age and enrolled in the Paris College of Surgeons in 1759. In 1780, he became private physician to the household of Louis Philip II, Duke of Orleans.\nIn 1775, the French Academy of Sciences offered a prize for a process whereby soda ash could be produced from salt. The French Academy wanted to promote the production of much-needed sodium carbonate from inexpensive sodium chloride. By 1791, Nicolas Leblanc had succeeded in producing sodium carbonate from salt by a 2-step process. The prize was awarded to Nicolas Leblanc for a process which used sea salt and sulphuric acid as the raw materials. Later, a plant of his own was in operation producing 320 tons of soda ash per year.\nTwo years later the plant was confiscated by the French revolutionary government, which refused to pay him the prize money he had earned ten years earlier.\nIn 1802, Napoleon returned the plant (but not the prize money) to him, but by then Leblanc was so broke he could not afford to run it. He killed himself in 1806.\n3. George Eastman\nGeorge Eastman, born in Waterville, New York in 1854, founded the Eastman Kodak Company and invented roll film, helping to bring photography to the mainstream, and setting the seeds for the invention of motion picture film in 1888.\nIn 1874, Eastman became intrigued with photography, but was frustrated by the awkward method that required coating a glass plate with a liquid emulsion that had to be used before it dried. In 1884, he patented a photographic medium that replaced fragile glass plates with a photo-emulsion coated on paper rolls. The invention of roll film greatly speeded up the process of recording multiple images. On September 4th 1888 Eastman registered the trademark Kodak.\nIn 1932, Eastman committed suicide, leaving a note that read, \u201cMy work is done. Why wait?\u201d He is buried in Rochester, New York.\n2. Wallace Carothers\nWallace Hume Carothers was an American chemist, credited with the invention of Nylon.\nCarothers was a group leader in DuPont\u2019s Experimental Station laboratory, near Wilmington, Delaware, where most polymer research was done. In addition to first developing nylon, also helped lay the groundwork for Neoprene. After receiving his Ph.D, he taught at several universities before he was hired by the DuPont Company to work on fundamental research.\nAfter his monumental discovery, Carothers suffered depression stemming from \u2018inventor\u2019s block\u2019, which coupled with the sudden death of his sister, caused him to take his own life by poisoning in 1937. He was 41 at the time.\nAlan Turing was an English scientist, mathematician, logician, and cryptographer, and arguably the greatest British scientist of the 20th century.\nOften considered to be the father of modern computer science, Turing provided an influential formalisation of the concept of the algorithm and computation with the Turing machine. With the Turing test, he made a significant and characteristically provocative contribution to the debate regarding artificial intelligence: whether it will ever be possible to say that a machine is conscious and can think. He later worked at the National Physical Laboratory, creating one of the first designs for a stored-program computer, although it was never actually built. In 1948 he moved to the University of Manchester to work on the Manchester Mark I, then emerging as one of the world\u2019s earliest true computers.\nDuring the Second World War Turing worked at Bletchley Park, Britain\u2019s code-breaking centre, and was for a time head of Hut 8, the section responsible for German naval cryptanalysis. He was largely responsible for the breaking of the German Enigma code.\nIn 1952, he was convicted of \u2018Acts of Gross Indecency\u2019, after admitting a sexual relationship with another man. He was given a choice between 18 months prison time (which considering his crime, was not exactly wise), or chemical castration, which included side effects such as breast enlargement. He chose the latter.\nOn the 8th June 1954, unable to endure the humiliation and pain of his punishment, Turing took his own life by eating an apple laced with cyanide. Despite this, it would take another 13 years for homosexuality to be decriminalised in the Britain.\nContributor: JT\nTechnorati Tags: people, suicide\n7 Reasons for a Failing Society\n10 Superhuman Heroic Feats",

        "title": "June Timber Market Update by Dr. James Henderson | Professional Logging Manager Program",
        "raw_content": "The decline in sawtimber and chip-n-saw demand and prices is a direct result of the decline in housing construction. Thus, housing construction volume is the number to watch. Construction of residential housing remains at historically low levels. April housing starts, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, dropped to a seasonally annual adjusted rate of 458,000 units, which is 54.2% below last year\u2019s rate. To put this in perspective, housing starts were just over 2 million units during early 2006. This decline in housing construction has had a profound impact on timber demand. Reflecting this decreased demand, the 2008 Mississippi average standing price for pine sawtimber decreased by over 40% from 2006 price levels.\nThe pulpwood market has declined since the end of 2008, and demand for pulpwood continues to decline. U.S. paper and paper board output fell 17% over the first four months of 2009 as compared with the same period during 2008. This sharp downturn in the paper industry brought about by the economic recession has resulted in lower pulpwood demand since the end of 2008. Pulpwood prices continue to decline, and as of May, delivered prices were down 20% from the price peaks observed during the fourth quarter of 2008.\nThe declines in both lumber and paper products have made price cuts and delivery quotas commonplace. Compounding the difficulty faced by timber suppliers is the increasing trend of timber bids being rejected as \u201ctoo low\u201d as the timber prices continue to decline. Not only are there fewer buyers but fewer sellers as well.\nKey to improvement in the softwood chip-n-saw and sawtimber markets is recovery in the housing construction sector. There are some indications that a recovery is on the way. First, the number of homes for sale on the market is declining. A healthy real-estate market should have about a 6 month supply of homes on the market.During the month of January, there was a 12.4 month supply. By the month of April, this had decreased to about a 10-month supply. If this trend continues, new home construction will increase, resulting in increased demand for chip-n-saw and sawtimber. This would also contribute to increased demand for hardwood sawtimber as demand increases for hardwood flooring and cabinets. Improvement is expected because of historically low 30-year fixed mortgage rates and the $8,000 Federal tax credit for first time home buyers. This should help reduce the number of homes on the market and spur increased construction. As a result, industry analysts project a modest recovery near the last quarter of 2009. Improvements in chip-n-saw and sawtimber demand should follow.\nOn a positive note, the volume of paper mill closures and production curtailment announcements have slowed greatly from the record levels seen earlier this year, suggesting that the pulpwood demand may be stabilizing. However, a real recovery in pulpwood prices ultimately depends on an overall economic recovery, which will result in increased production of paper and paper board products. The outlook for the national economy is slow but positive economic growth which is expected to resume during the second half of 2009.",

        "title": "Intelligence in Astronomy: What Is Intelligence? (Part 2)",
        "raw_content": "One night in Cambridge, England in the late 1970's, two astrophysics postdocs were sitting at a table outside of the Ft. Saint George Pub. One of the astrophysicists was Ed Turner (Princeton) and the other was Scott Tremaine (Institute for Advanced Study). As my good friend, Ed Turner, tells the story\nAt some point we fell to debating which of our famous senior colleagues was the best scientist. Ostriker, Rees, Peebles, Lynden-Bell and others appeared in the conversation. We failed to find a compelling case for any one of them or even for comparing any two of them; generally there were arguments for many or both alternatives re who was the best. I can't recall whether we discussed only theorists or also some observers.\nAnyway, at some point we noticed that while it was very hard to say whether X was better than Y or vice versa as an overall scientist, it was often relatively easy to say which was better at some particular aspect of science...like who had the most extensive and detailed knowledge or who was more creative or who picked the best problems etc. I recall making some analogy to comparing baseball players; it is hard to say who is the best overall but relatively easy to say who has the highest batting average, hits the most HRs, steals the most bases etc...\nFrom this point it was only a short hop into science nerdery as they imagined the various components of excellence and traits of successful astronomers as basis vectors in a multidimensional hyperspace, which they termed the 7-Dimensional Scientist Hyperspace (7DSH, pronounced \"seven-dish,\" I guess :). The seven dimensions of excellence that they identified was some version of the following according to an email Scott Tremaine sent me in response to my inquiry:\nTaste - Ability to identify an important question that can be addressed with the skills that you possess.\nIntelligence - Adeptness at the basic problem solving, calculating, perceptual skills needed to work the problem.\nGrit - Ability to do the hard extended work needed. Ability to maintain attention. Ability to complete. The ability to face struggles and push through.\nKnowledge - Breadth and extent of the corpus of knowledge needed to solve the problem and bring in interesting external information.\nCuriosity - Alertness to interesting paths, byways, anomalies, etc.\nLuck - Intuitive ability to expose oneself to, select for, and respond to constructive paths.\nCommunication - Ability to advance your ideas and generate needed input.\nI really like these dimensions. Note, however, that they do not necessarily form an orthogonal basis set. One cannot be lucky or creative or curious without gaining the necessary knowledge. One cannot communicate well without good taste in selecting the right questions.\nNote also that these traits are not static qualities of an individual, and smartness is only one component of success (mostly closely aligned with a combination of knowledge and intelligence). Even if you don't think you are getting smarter in time, and many people doubt that they are, one's knowledge increases monotonically throughout their lives, curiosity comes through effective communication with others, which generates ideas that can lead to asking important new questions. First-year students don't arrive on campus with this sort of software bundled and pre-installed. These are things that need to be learned, and successful graduate programs focus on training students and helping their projections in these various dimensions grow in time.\nMoving from one-dimensional \"smartness\" to\nmulti-dimensional excellence\nAfter thinking on 7DSH for a few months now, I've devised my modified 7-dimensional hyperspace of scientific excellence (M7DHSE), which draws upon the Turner & Tremaine conception as well as Sternberg's Successful Intelligence:\nCreativity - The ability to successfully deal with new and unusual research problems and situations by drawing on existing knowledge and skills. The ability to connect disparate concepts to devise solutions to outstanding problems.\nCuriosity - Alertness to interesting paths, byways, anomalies. The ability to identify important questions that can be addressed with one\u2019s skills.\nBasic intelligence - The ability to quickly identify the correct solution to academic, problem-solving tasks by drawing upon fundamental physical concepts.\nKnowledge - Breadth and depth of the corpus of information one possesses that can be used to solve problems\nProductivity - The ability to understand what needs to be done in a specific setting and then do it at a rate that contributes to the advancement of knowledge throughout one\u2019s field\nCommunication - The ability to advance ideas; generate needed input through positive interactions with others; and disseminate results in oral and/or written form so that others can use them to advance the field.\nPedagogy - Abilities related to the effective training of the next generation of excellent scientists through teaching, advising and mentoring. The ability to adapt to different backgrounds and learning styles in order to help others learn how to be excellent\nHow does your ability vector, $\\vec{A}$, project into this hyperspace? What is the magnitude of your vector, $|\\vec{A}|$? An most importantly, what is the time derivative of your vector, $d\\vec{A}/dt$ and what are you doing to accelerate that growth?\nA good way to normalize these vectors is to find the unit vectors (see page 5):\nhttps://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~dfabricant/huchra/mapmaker.pdf",

        "raw_content": "Beware the Ikea Effect! Why Buying or Selling a House can Mess with your Mind\nPublished on Wednesday, 11 Apr 2018 23:19 by BD\nMoving house is stressful - and full of thinking traps...\nIt\u2019s spring \u2013 a time when many people start thinking about moving house. And anyone who has ever bought or sold a home knows just what an emotional time it can be, with surveys placing it just below getting divorced on the stressful life events scale.\nFor a start, when it comes to negotiating the price, buyers and sellers often disagree about how much the house is actually worth.\nFor the seller, simply owning the house means they think it\u2019s worth more than they would if buying the exact same house again, a phenomenon known as the endowment effect.\nResearchers have suggested that the seller experiences loss aversion \u2013 where we feel the pain of a loss more than an equivalent gain. We can justify \u201closing\u201d something in our possession, if someone is willing to pay a premium for it.\nSellers who have spent all their free time painting walls and laying floors may be particularly unrealistic about the value of their homes. Dubbed the \u201cIkea effect\u201d, it\u2019s the tendency to be more enthusiastic about our own creations than others would be. Keen-DIYers build up \u201csweat equity\u201d in their property and believe the price has risen accordingly with their efforts.\nBuyers should also be wary of falling in love with a house that\u2019s being sold by someone who bought at the top of the market. These vendors are more likely to hold out for a higher price than those who bought a comparable home when house prices were lower. No one wants to feel like they\u2019ve made a bad investment, so those who bought high ask for more when they sell on. This psychological effect holds true even when the seller is mortgage-free and not requiring a high sale price for the deposit on their next home.\nOf course, sellers may well find that person willing to pay top dollar for their property \u2013 but it can also mean their home languishes on the property market for months. One way they can try to secure a good price, though, is to use the concept of \u201canchoring\u201d: people tend to rely heavily on an initial piece of information when making decisions. Listing the house for a high price would mean that when it comes to negotiations, buyers will have that figure in mind, and may potentially offer more than they would if it was listed for a lower figure.\nAnd while you think about whether the grass on that new lawn really will be greener, find out which mortgage loan suits you best.\nThis article appeared originally in eZonomics.

Venturing is open to young men and women ages 13-20 that are looking to spend some exciting times in the great outdoors and helping our community in which we live. We do support Troop 701 of Fond du Lac WI along with Cub Scout Packs that would like a help.\nVenturing's purpose is to develop a program for young men and women who are 14 years of age or 13 years of age and have completed the eighth grade and under 21 years of age to provide positive experiences to help young people mature and to prepare them to become responsible and caring adults.\nBased on of the Boy Scouts of America.\nDaniel S Rosenthal\nCrew Advisor of 9701\nMy name is Hayden Mand, I am the president of Crew 9701. I have been active in the crew since we restarted in summer of 2015. My goal as president is to help our members have an enjoyable experience while maintaining a strong crew. Venturing is an awesome time for Youths 14 years to 21 years old, you learn a lot of skills- physically (outdoor activities, motor sports, camping etc.) and mentally (planning, budgeting, team building, etc.) If you have any interest in joining, please email me at haydenpelican@gmail.com We would love to see more youth joining!\nHayden Mand\nMESSAGE FROM THE ADVISOR\nVenturing is a way of opening new opportunities for young men and women. It gives them the chance to develop and lead activities at Outings and functions. They also have the ability to learn how to develop operating budgets and administrate activities. The crew is ran and implemented by the youth with adult guidance when asked for or needed. In each of the major positions there is an adult contact that they can go to if they run into a problem.\nI have had the pleasure of watching 10 year olds develop at Boy Scouts and grow into confident young men who are looking for more of a challenge, wether that means the different awards the boys and girls can earn, to being a mentor to younger Scouts and other youth though Church, Scouting or the Community. Crew members also have so much more to choose from in the outdoors with the activities they choose to do. Dirt Bikes, jet ski's, snow mobiles, hunting and caving. All of those things are for Venture Crews. We would love to welcome your son or daughter to our Crew. Please stop by and see us.\nMr. Dan Rosenthal\nCrew Advisor 9701\nImmanuel Trinity Church, Fond du Lac Wisconsin Tuesdays 7:30 p.m.- 8:30 p.m.\nOpen to boys and girls ages 14-20!\n(or 13 and completed 8th Grade)\nAlways looking for new leaders too!\nCrew Advisor: Mr. Dan Rosenthal\nHere is a link to our Boy Scout Troop 701 http://www.scoutlander.com/publicsite/unitcustom.aspx?UID=3886&CUSTOMID=56050",

        "title": "Last Post in Phnom Penh - TeahouseLast Post in Phnom Penh - Teahouse",
        "raw_content": "In 1992 an American called Michael Hayes, disappointed on being told that there were no English-language newspapers to read at breakfast in Phnom Penh, decided he should start one.\nHe founded and subsequently ran the Phnom Penh Post for 16 years, publishing it fortnightly as a tabloid, printing it in Bangkok. The paper was often home to a cast of stellar journalists, attracted by the paper\u2019s relaxed atmosphere, as well as enjoying the opportunity to work in a fascinating country, struggling to establish democracy in a shattered and poverty-stricken environment.\nIn 2008 an exhausted Hayes sold the Post to an Australian mining magnate called Bill Clough. Clough took the paper daily, modernised its operations and invested heavily in it. Unfortunately, he unwittingly installed a number of venal and incompetent people in senior management positions, but the editorial staff were generally highly skilled and committed, both to the paper and to Cambodia.\nOver the next ten years, the Post distinguished itself through the strength of its coverage of issues that were important in Cambodia: illegal logging, land rights, factory conditions, women\u2019s issues and government corruption. This was recognised by the winning of some 30 Society of Publishers\u2019 in Asia (SOPA) Awards in the period for the paper\u2019s work.\nIn late 2017, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, facing a looming general election he was unlikely to win legitimately, took steps to win illegitimately. He jailed or forced into exile the heads of the opposition party, closed the party down, shut down numerous radio stations, and announced that the country\u2019s only other worthwhile English-language newspaper, the Cambodia Daily, was hit with a $6.3m tax bill that it couldn\u2019t pay. It closed down in September 2017. The writing was on the wall for the Phnom Penh Post.\nEarlier this year, the Cambodian tax department demanded $3.9m from the Post. Clough, seeing the way the wind was blowing, announced 6 May that he had sold the paper, and that the tax problem had magically disappeared too.\nThe new owner of the Post, a Malaysian called Sivakumar Ganapathy, issued a statement. \u201cWe would like to assure all readers and followers of The Phnom Penh Post that as the new owner, we are fully committed to upholding the paper\u2019s 26-year-old legacy and editorial principles/independence without infringing any relevant laws and regulations of the Kingdom of Cambodia.\u201d\nHowever, what the statement didn\u2019t mention was that Sivakumar Ganapathy is the head of Asia PR, a Malaysia-based firm whose clients included Cambodia and Prime Minister Hun Sen. Indeed, the company boasted that one of its jobs was \u201cCambodia and Hun Sen\u2019s entry into the Government seat\u201d, which rather belies their professional credentials, by not making much sense.\nJournalists at the Post naturally thought this was quite a good story, and wrote it, and put it on the front page. Predictably, however, the new owner was incandescent with rage. The next day he issued a statement, claiming that the paper got important facts wrong, including his own name (it is, apparently, not Sivakumar Ganapathy, but rather Sivakumar S. Ganapathy, a crucial distinction,) and complained that his job was reported as \u201can executive\u201d and \u201cexecutive director\u201d of Asia PR rather than CEO and managing director.\nSivakumar called the piece \u201ca disgrace and an insult to the independence claim of the newspaper\u201d and said it \u201cborders on internal sabotage.\u201d In a line we particularly enjoyed, he said that a particular paragraph of the story \u201cwreaks of careless reporting/journalism.\u201d\nHe then fired the editor in chief, which precipitated a mass walk out. Thirteen staff, including the managing and business editors, have tendered their resignations. There are now no foreign reporters on the paper.\nWithout wishing to impugn the skills and commitment of Khmer journalists, it is certainly harder for them to stand up to the lure of self-censorship in the face of an often-violent dictatorship: with no families to feed, foreign journalists provided a bulwark against the wholesale suborning of the press in Cambodia.\nWith this collapse of the paper\u2019s credibility, what will happen to the Post?\nRupert Winchester, a former reporter at the Phnom Penh Post, is a contributing editor at Mekong Review.",

        "raw_content": "There are many history-based tourist attractions in Melaka. Relics such as temples, bridges, ancient buildings, forts, places of worship and others in full can be found in Melaka. These sites stretch of the city\u2019s history that so many ancient relics are lucky to be maintained until now. Poyyatha Sri Vinayagar Moorthi Temple is a testament to the legacy of old centuries. Visiting this temple is one of the best things to do in Melaka as well.\nSri Poyyatha Vinayagar Moorthi Temple\nThe temple is located at Harmony Street, precisely on Jalan Goldsmith adjacent to other historical buildings. This temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Malaysia, lying alone in Jalan Harmoni not without cause. It creates harmony among fellow citizens and religious followers in this region that despite different rarely dissents or dispute because of the feeling united and competitiveness appreciated among others.\nSri Poyyatha Vinayagar Moorthi Temple Melaka was built precisely in 1781 on land given by Kapitan Thaivanayagam Chitty.

This god is renowned for his extraordinary wisdom. Ganesha is also known as the god who can grant any wish asked by people who request them. People come to ask cure and heal of their ailment. They ask for prosperity and success, happily married lives and children.\nThe architecture and the aura of the temple offer few of the mesmerizing sights in Melaka.

The side altar is dedicated to the father and the mother of Vinayagar, and his younger brother the Lord Muruga. You are allowed to trace the trail for the sake of existing buildings here, along with all its contents that are still preserved despite being centuries old.\nMany religious festivals are usually held here as the Datuk Chachar Festival and also Masi Magam. If you happen to visit here coincided with the celebration of the festival then of course will come to feel the happiness and festivities. The temple building is heavily influenced by the architectural of the Netherlands as seen from the entrance, walls, dome and roof of the temple.\nThe temple still maintains the bond between Hindus in Melaka. Not only the people close around the temple visit it regularly, those who live far away from the temple also try to take the time to visit. If you are searching for things to do in Melaka, then visiting Sri Poyyatha Vinayagar Moorthi Temple is highly recommended.\nIt is one of the recommended places to visit in Melaka for the followers of Hindu religion & also for the tourists to explore more of this oldest temple in Melaka.

Although I won't be there due to it being a week later than normal and having a pre booked holiday please let's not forget this is a very special day. For our players to get the chance to play in the National Stadium is very special, for kids to get the chance to see that should also be very special. Before I left I couldn\u2019t help but feel folk were saying \"again\" so I am not bothering this year or I have to buy the tickets on line so \"b---r it.\" . Please don\u2019t be one of them. It's not \" hell again it's not special\" it's the opposite. Its wow what an achievement in reaching it for the 8th time in the last 11 seasons. That in itself is special--a cup final is special so we now have to make it memorable. That\u2019s the difference the memorable ones--the time you were there, who you were with, the lasting impression it made on kids.\nIt could be the double , what an achievement that would be. How many clubs have done that before , not many. Its Stirling's first time so that shows it's not easy to get there they will be there in numbers . WE CAN NEVER TAKE SUCCESS FOR GRANTED AS IT ELUDES MOST OF US\nOne last thing with all the changes Super 6 etc it might also be the last time we ever get this opportunity SO PLEASE don\u2019t miss it. I thought about flying back but that would have been too selfish. For once it just wasn\u2019t the right thing to do and after some recent events including the sudden death of Ian Lowrie (Big Low) it makes you think about getting everything in perspective.\nIf you are having problems with the online tickets give Christine in the office a call--we get 50% of the cost so you are supporting the club\nplease support the boys--create a memorable day--I will be doing my nut for half a day but if you turn out in numbers to encourage the players I might just be able to raise a glass from afar for a great Saturday night",

        "title": "Disney Parks getting rid of chairs and benches - Page 2 - snopes.com",
        "raw_content": "It (It's also in a way kind of odd the place has been so successful despite being only a few miles from Disneyland. These days it's probably an asset -- an additional attraction to bring people into the area in the first place -- but in the sixties, you might think the Disney park would have sucked all the business away. Somehow though they managed to come through.)\nBut the advantage that they had in the 1960s was the free admission. You went to Disneyland for the roller coasters and Disney experience. You went to Knotts for the chicken dinner/jam and the 'Western' experience.\nMy Mom's explanation was that Knotts starting charging admission when it became a hang-out for the local Hell's Angels chapter. I have no idea of the veracity of that tale.\n(Another old Garden Grove person - remember Marineland?)\nWhile the admission is no longer free, Knott's Berry Farm is still considerably less than Disneyland. It is a challenge to do an apples to apples comparison as both parks have a wide range of prices depending on day -- single or multiple, extra's, number of guests, gate or advanced, and a number of other possible options and combinations. But a quick visual survey seems to indicate that Knott's Berry Farm is somewhere between 25% and 50% less expensive than Disney.\nNow the question of how comparable the experiences are and the relative value of those ticket prices is another whole discussion and assuredly varies by person.\nOriginally Posted by Keeper of the Mad Bunnies\nAnother factor that came along, somewhat later, was the highly successful \"Knott's Scary Farm\" promotion in the fall, which became a big southern California attraction, many years before Disneyland started taking any particular notice of Halloween.\nI remember hearing that it was \"the hippies\" -- not just hanging around the place, but actually camping there overnight, since at the time it didn't have a fence. No idea if there's anything to that, either.\nI'm still bitter about how Marineland got shut down after being purchased by Harcourt Brace Javanovich, which also owned Sea World at the time. They swore when they bought it that they had no intention of shutting it down -- then shut it down anyway, transferring some of the animals to Sea World (and losing at least one orca in the process, IIRC). It would probably have had to go eventually, anyway -- by current standards, the tanks they had were nowhere near large enough for the animals, and I doubt they'd have had an easy time reconstructing. But they were ahead of Sea World, I think, in the animal rescue business, and that was also lost.\nKnott's also has many more substantial discounts available through various outlets. Disney does very little of that, as they really have no incentive to.\nI'm interested it hear what you think are roller coaster rides, since IMO, almost all of Disneyland's rides are built on the roller coaster principle.\nDisneyland has relatively few coasters: Space Mountain, Splash Mountain (a flume ride), Big Thunder Mountain Railway and the Matterhorn. California Adventure has Goofy's Sky School, what was California Scream in and the Grizzly Run flume ride.\nDisney has a lot more \"show\" rides, like \"It's A Small World\" or \"Haunted Mansion\" than other theme parks. You go there for the name and for the atmosphere; you don't go there for the thrill rides.\nWe have season passes to our local Six Flags park, which has very little in the line of \"show\". My wife likes to go there with the kids and the extended family; while the kids go on a ride, she'll find a bench and read. Well, guess you can't do that at Disney any more.\nI know for many of us the switch from the days when they had ticket books for rides to a single price was a good thing...\nThing I learned today: There was a time when you had to buy books of tickets for the rides at Disneyland. I thought I had read somewhere once that one of Disney's big innovations when they opened the park was just charging for general admission rather than requiring guests to buy tickets for each ride. From what I understand the way amusement parks typically worked at the time (like Knott's Berry Farm) was to have no charge for admission but to require payment or tickets for each ride (like how the Santa Cruz Boardwalk still works today). But I must have misremembered when Disney started doing that, and I'm guessing it was still considered innovative whenever they made the switch.\nThing I learned today: There was a time when you had to buy books of tickets for the rides at Disneyland. I thought I had read somewhere once that one of Disney's big innovations when they opened the park was just charging for general admission rather than requiring guests to buy tickets for each ride.\nNow I'm curious to know: Had you ever heard the expression \"E-Ticket\" or \"E-Ticket ride\"? It's a common expression in southern California, though it's probably fading as people who remember those days grow fewer. (But it is definitely sometimes used by people who weren't born when they were still in use.)\nIt comes from the old Disneyland ticket books. The tickets were classed by letter, A through E, and the more elaborate/popular rides were further along the alphabet. So A tickets were things like the Main Street vehicles or the Sleeping Beauty walkthrough, whereas something like Space Mountain was an E-Ticket.\nMost people would buy a ticket book for admission; it would contain usually 10-15 tickets of varying denominations, and also included admission to the park, and sometimes a special coupon for \"Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln.\" The tickets were good indefinitely, so if you didn't use all of yours on a particular visit, you could save them for the next. Like most families, we usually had a bundle of A and B tickets with a few stray C's and D's in a drawer for our next trip. You could also buy extra tickets inside the park if you ran short.\nThere were also \"Magic Key\" tickets which were good for any ride; you could get these if you were a member of the Magic Kingdom club, something you could usually join through your employer. Naturally the inclination was to use these for D and E ticket attractions whenever possible; it would feel like a waste to use on on an A-ticket ride.\nThey switched to the Passport in 1982, where you could ride everything for one price. For a while, at least, you could bring your old ride tickets and each was good for some amount off your passport price -- I don't know if you still can, but I imagine it would be pretty rare; they're probably more valuable as collectibles at this point.\nHere's a page about them: https://d23.com/e-ticket-memories-fi...-ticket-books/\nAnd it was just the Matterhorn until Space Mountain opened in 1977 (iirc).\nThere's still a Marineland in Ontario. Though I think it's somewhat controversial these days.\nNow I'm curious to know: Had you ever heard the expression \"E-Ticket\" or \"E-Ticket ride\"?\nI haven't ever heard it in the context you describe, no. To me \"E-ticket\" means \"electronic ticket\", and I first heard it in the early 2000s when airlines started issuing tickets electronically rather than in physical paper form. But that's completely different from how you're using it.\nI only learned about Disneyland E-tickets when I happened to be listening to Weird Al's \"Jurassic Park\" recently for the first time in years, and there's a line about \"this sure ain't no E-ticket...\" I thought, huh? Electronic tickets didn't exist in the early 90's when he recorded that song. So I had to look up the lyric to figure out what he was talking about. And after reading about it, the phrase seemed vaguely familiar; I probably heard the term when I was a kid but hadn't thought about it in that context for decades.\nThey were used at Disneyworld too. We used tickets many times when I was a kid. It apparently changed in 1982.\nCan confirm that the phrase \"E ticket ride\" is still kicking around as a bit of old timey local slang. I was born in '83 but heard it from my folks, who moved to Orange County in the '70s, and it's worked its way into my speech occasionally.\nThat's weird -- I can't see it now either; had no trouble earlier.\nThere's a bit about them here: https://www.yesterland.com/abcde2.html\nAnd more if you search around.\nAs noted on the page above, astronaut Sally Ride on her first trip on the Space Shuttle said \"This is definitely an E-Ticket!\" (A similar phrase is used in the Julie Brown song \"The Homecoming Queen's Got a Gun,\" but that's a little more obscure...and somewhat less humorous in the post-Columbine era...)\nMerriam-Webster defines a roller coaster as having an elevated track so some of those rides don't meet the dictionary definition, such as Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.\nMy personal definition of a roller coaster is \"a ride I will never, ever willingly go on.\"\nhttps://www.merriam-webster.com/dict...roller-coaster\nI would call Mr Toad's a dark ride. It doesn't fit any definition of roller coaster I would use. Similarly, Splash Mountain is a flume ride, IMO.\nSpace mountain is an indoor roller coaster. Matterhorn and Thunder Mountain would both be roller coasters as well.\nI think of a roller coaster as something that does sharp dives and/or rolls and/or loop de loops while up in the air. And I agree with Morning.\nPossibly a thing I figured out today: the \"roller\" in the name may refer to its rolling on the tracks, and not to its doing rolls and/or making one's stomach do so? I always thought of it as the latter, though.\nI always assumed the original term \"roller coaster\" was coined because, in the classic sort, once your car has been pulled up to the top, it \"coasts\" for the rest of the ride, rather than being propelled by motors. (Sometimes you may be pulled up another hill partway through.) Presumably the \"roller\" is included to indicate it moves on wheels, rather than being some kind of bobsled or a flume ride.\nThis definition is of course muddled nowadays, as many coasters start by accelerating your car using linear induction or some such rather than using gravity, and there are probably some out there that use similar methods to boost your speed in mid-ride. (There's also the weird hybrid \"Atlantis\" ride at San Diego's Sea World...)\nA \"dark ride\" in the classic sense is something like the Snow White, Pinnochio, or Mr. Toad rides; your ride vehicle moves along a track at a more-or-less constant speed through a building containing the various ride elements, but it doesn't actually coast. Disney has had more sophisticated variants of these in later years -- e.g., the suspended \"flying\" ships used for Peter Pan, the \"omni-mover\" vehicles used for the Haunted Mansion and the late Adventure Through Inner Space, and most recently, the large multi-moving vehicles on Indiana Jones, which use simulator-type movements in addition to following the course of the ride.",

        "title": "\"Little GTO\" was an advertisement for Pontiac - snopes.com",
        "raw_content": "I'd always thought of it as just another 1960s hot rod song, like \"Hey Little Cobra\" and \"Little Deuce Coupe\", but at least according to Jay Leno in one of his YouTube videos, the song \"Little GTO\" by Ronnie and the Daytonas was actually created by Pontiac's marketing department as part of the advertising for the car. That is to say, while it was released as a single and played on the radio like an ordinary pop song, it was written by Pontiac (or more likely their ad agency) who presumably hired Ronnie and the Daytonas to record it. It wouldn't be the first time a company released a pop song for marketing purposes; IIRC Ford was doing that back in the 'teens or '20s, but I can't find any other information regarding the GTO marketing.\nHere's the link to the YouTube video. Jay makes the comment at around 12:30 if you're not interested in watching the whole thing.\nIt isn't the original, but the copyright renewal for \"GTO\" (no \"Little\" in the title) shows that the words and music were written by John Wilkin.\nIf Pontiac were going to write a car song for advertising, why would they use an unknown artist instead of an established group?\naccording to Jay Leno in one of his YouTube videos, the song \"Little GTO\" by Ronnie and the Daytonas was actually created by Pontiac's marketing department as part of the advertising for the car. That is to say, while it was released as a single and played on the radio like an ordinary pop song, it was written by Pontiac (or more likely their ad agency) who presumably hired Ronnie and the Daytonas to record it.\nIt's possibly that it may be an urban legend.\nI find it somewhat unlikely, because right after singing Little GTO (a Pontiac car), they recorded and had a hit with a song called \"Bucket T\", which refers to the Ford Model T. Switching brands wouldn't be too likely.\nIt costs far less to hire an unknown act.\nHowever, a quick search reveals that \"GTO\" was written by teenager John \"Bucky\" Wilkin, whose mother had a music publishing company and allowed her son to record the song backed by studio musicians.\nBucky, a senior in high school in Nashville at the time Pontiac unveiled its GTO, wrote a song about the car, sprinkling the lyrics with plenty of \"gearhead\" slang phrases [...]\nHere's where having a successful music-biz mom comes in handy. Marijohn started a publishing company, Buckhorn Music, with former Sun Records ace Bill Justis (of \"Raunchy\" fame), who produced the young Wilkin with top Tennessee session musicians and backing vocalists in a west coast style consistent with the Beach Boys-inspired surf and drag hits of the day. Bucky made up an appropriate-sounding name, Ronny and the Daytonas, leading to the inaccurate impression that an actual group existed...from Florida, home of the Daytona International Speedway, no less! \"G.T.O.\" (flipped with \"Hot Rod Baby\") came out in the summer of '64 on Mala, a subsidiary of Larry Uttal's New York-based Bell Records. The guy who now had two nicknames watched as his unauthorized ode to Pontiac's in-demand muscle car spent several weeks in the top ten in September and October.\nIf I remember correctly, the rule stemmed in part from the voluntary ban on factory backed auto racing by the manufacturers, instituted by the AMA in 1957 - limiting capacity on some models would discourage GM's divisions from backing racing teams. The other factor was simply to try and keep the smaller A-body cars from siphoning sales from the larger model ranges, the idea being that if you wanted to buy a fast car from the factory you had to pony up and get the more expensive, big car (or a Corvette). I don't know why it was formally instituted with that particular generation of A-body cars (introduced in 1964), although my theory is, again, that they were a new design, much lighter than previous A-body cars, so they didn't want to lose B-body sales.\nBear in mind that, while Ford didn't have a set rule about engine sizes, they did the same thing with the Falcon/Comet and Mustang, which weren't available with anything bigger than a 289 V-8 till the later 60's. If you wanted a big block you had to get a Fairlane.\nYes, but a known act is a lot more likely to be played on the radio.\nDJs were regional powers in their own markets then. A good A & R man could get unknowns on the air. Also Rocket 88 was a hit in 1951 meaning that the engine designation pre-dated muscle cars.\nGM had a ban on racing, but they would sell to dealers like Don Yenko in Washington PA who would build cars for the \"enthusiast\" market--like the Yenko Corvair Stinger--180 hp (at the most expensive end) Corvair for street or track.\nAnd there was the song about Honda motor bikes from the same era--I always thought that was a pure advertisement. Never thought much about GTO.\nAlso Rocket 88 was a hit in 1951 meaning that the engine designation pre-dated muscle cars.\nDepends on how you define a muscle car. At least according to Wikipedia, many consider the 1949 Oldsmobile 88 to be a muscle car.\nOldsmobile introduced the 88 badge in 1949. It was named to complement the already-existing 76 and 98, and took the place of the straight-8 engined 78 in the model lineup. The new car used the same new Futuramic B-body platform as the straight-6 engined 76 but paired it with the powerful new Rocket V8 engine. This combination of a relatively small light body and large, powerful engine made it widely considered to be the first muscle car.\nI've also seen the Hudson Hornet from the same era called a muscle car.\nWildaBeast: Like many Boomers, I tend to be 1960s centric. I have to agree about the Olds 88 and the Hudson--a power house in its day. The Hudson Hornet was a winner in early NASCAR days (hence the homage to it in Cars with the Sherrif).

        "title": "The Housing Allowance for Ministers Is Upheld \u2013 Thinking and Believing",
        "raw_content": "As a minister, I benefit from the clergy housing allowance. A portion of my pay is designated as a housing allowance from the church. (I inform my church how much I expect to spend on housing related expenses each year.) This money is not taxed, so this is obviously a financial benefit to ministers.\nThis housing allowance has faced some significant legal challenges the last few years, which several lawsuits claiming that the housing allowance violates the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution.\nBut the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the housing allowance doesn\u2019t violate the constitution.\nChristianity Today reports on this:\nChurches can stop worrying that their pastors\u2019 best benefit will be taken away by an atheist lawsuit\u2014for now.\nToday, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a lower court\u2019s high-profile decision that the longstanding clergy housing allowance was unconstitutional. The 60-year-old tax break excludes the rental value of a pastor\u2019s home from their taxable income.\nThe article also references an amicus brief from The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which gives three purposes for the housing allowance.\nThe allowance serves three purposes, according to The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which filed an amicus brief in the case. \u201cIt ensures that ministers are treated the same as similar nonreligious employees; it reduces tax discrimination among ministers from wealthy and poor denominations; and it keeps the government from making intrusive judgments about how ministers use their homes. Without the allowance, many minority or poor faith groups would have difficulty providing for their ministers.\u201d\nI personally would hate to see the housing allowance taken away. I think it would hamper many churches from being able to pay their ministers an adequate salary. I understand why atheists might dislike the housing allowance, but my understanding is that the housing allowance is available to clergy from any denomination or religion.\nI would have no issues with the housing allowance being extended to some job position among atheist organizations that corresponds to clergy. I don\u2019t know what that position would be. And I don\u2019t know how the government would oversee that. But, if they could think of a way, I would not object to it.\nYou can read Christianity Today\u2019s report here: \u201dGood News for Pastors: Court Overturns Atheist Victory on Housing Allowance\u201d.\nChristianity, Ministry, Politics",

        "raw_content": "Legislators from the three countries still have to approve the pact, officially known as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), before it goes into effect and replaces the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).\nTrump appeared with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and outgoing Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto at the Group of 20 nations summit in Buenos Aires for the formal signing ceremony.\n\"It's been long and hard\". Many, many jobs are already planning to come back.\nBut the three leaders sat down to put ink to paper, signing a deal that has a few questions hanging over it - mainly the fate of steel and aluminum tariffs the USA imposed on its North American neighbors. He called the deal by its old name NAFTA, prodded Trump over United States steel and aluminium tariffs, and said General Motors Co's decision to cut production and slash its North American workforce, including in Canada, was a \"heavy blow\". Before signing the deal he continued to refer to as the new NAFTA, Trudeau told Trump the two should continue to work together to eliminate steel and aluminium tariffs.\nTrump's decision to slap tariffs on $250 billion of Chinese imports resulted in Beijing placing penalties on $60 billion of USA products.\nThe new NAFTA agreement is called the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) on Canada's government website.\nIn addition, she said, the deal as is \"would not only raise drug prices in Canada and Mexico, but would tie Congress' hands, preventing us from enacting essential reforms needed to lower prescription drug prices\".\nTrump's optimism, however, is not shared among some members of Congress.\n'It's been so well reviewed I don't anticipate much of a problem, ' he said.\nThere was a question as to if Trudeau would show up to the signing ceremony.\nIt was Nieto's last day as president, and he touted the benefits of the new agreement.\nBut Trudeau, who considered not attending the ceremony that Trump was so eager for, refused to play along.\n\"Not only have they conceded market access but they have also gone along with the U.S.to ensure we can not be competitive on any world markets where the U.S.is present\", said David Wiens, vice-president of Dairy Farmers of Canada.\nUSA tariffs on steel and aluminum remain in the agreement, something the three sides have been trying to iron out.\nIn one new feature, it requires that 40% of cars' contents eventually be made in countries that pay autoworkers at least $16 an hour - that is, in the United States and Canada and not in Mexico - to qualify for duty-free treatment.\nAfter the three countries' leaders sign the pact, it must be ratified by their respective legislatures.\n\"With the signing of this agreement, President Trump has delivered on his promise to renegotiate NAFTA and protect American farmers, ranchers, businesses, and workers\", it said in a statement. He urged Trump to remove tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum, which have been cited as a factor in GM's decision to cut costs. 'The two leaders discussed their disappointment in the announced closures of General Motors plants in their respective countries and their plans for the upcoming G20 Summit'.\nMeanwhile, a number of lawmakers and business groups are trying to push for the removal of US tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from Canada and Mexico, which have inflicted harm upon American manufacturers and consumers, raising costs for a wide array of industries.\nThe United States Mexico Canada Agreement (USMCA) is expected to replace NAFTA - a pact Trump has called a \"disaster\".\nSteel and aluminum tariffs, once seen as a pressure tactic in trade talks, remain in place.",

        "raw_content": "LeBron saved us all a lot of time\nThere was no long, drawn-out \u201cwhere-will-he sign\u201d process.\nThere was no elaborate made-for-TV announcement that had the sports nation on the edge of its seats.\nThere was no \u201cI\u2019m taking my talents to South Beach.\u201d\nNo, LeBron James \u2014 the greatest player of this generation and for some the greatest of all time \u2014 struck with the quickness of a cheetah and while most of us were still digesting breakfast.\nThe King announced on Sunday that he would be heading west to the tradition-rich Los Angeles Lakers, tipping the NBA scales of balance even more toward the Left Coast. It also means when the NBA Finals roll around next June, they\u2019ll be a forgone conclusion as the true Finals, as they were this year, will be the Western Conference finals.\nLeBron agreed to a 4-year deal, which means he will most likely finish his career with the Lakers. He will be 37 at the end of this deal and would only re-sign if he\u2019s chasing individual or personal records.\nThis was no big surprise. It was going to either be Cleveland or Los Angeles, cities he maintains a residence in. The other teams were no more than bit players. Fans of the Philadelphia 76ers had their hearts beating briefly, but he gave them only a cursory glance.\nBy joining the Lakers, who have been awful the last 5 years, they immediately become contenders. They\u2019re still a long way from being in the Golden State and Houston class, but they could be the third-best in the West. After all, LeBron took a band of underachievers to the NBA Finals this year and his presence should assure LA of at least 20 more wins.\nAnd given the allure of LeBron \u2014 not to mention magnetic icon Magic Johnson who is in charge of the Lakers\u2019 operations \u2014 don\u2019t be surprised if they aren\u2019t done retooling their roster. Already, they have added role players Lance Stephenson and JaVale McGee to bolster the bench and don\u2019t forget the biggest fish left in the pond \u2014Kawhi Leonard \u2014 is still out there he attempts to escape what he believes to be purgatory in San Antonio.\nLeBron to the Lakers makes so much sense. Shaquille O\u2019Neal and Wilt Chamberlain eventually headed to La La Land to have a better chance to win championships. And right now, that\u2019s all LeBron is truly interested in, as he has more money than he could ever spend or give away. LA is glitz, glamour and the land of endless opportunities. He will put the \"Show\" back in \"Showtime.\"\nLeBron also is interested in the business aspect, following the lead of Magic. The late Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss helped Magic become a powerhouse in the business world and LeBron could have similar aspirations.\nMy big question is what do the Lakers do with Lonzo Ball, who thrives on having the ball in his hands. His father, LeVar \u201cBig Baller\u201d Ball, certainly won\u2019t be silent for long as Lonzo is used to dominating the ball, just like LeBron. Hopefully he won't say his son is as good as LeBron or some other knucklehead statement that he's been prone to make.\nLonzo is no LeBron, despite what LeVar believes. And as much as LeVar wants his son to be playing in the bright lights of LA, his best career move might be going elsewhere.\nAs much as Golden State has been the NBA\u2019s dominant team, winning three of the last four years, all the hype going into next season will have to do with the Lakers. Make that LeBron's Lakers.",

Wilson Morrison\nGetting to Know Your Teachers\nMy name is Miss Jennifer Cameron; this is my 12th year teaching at EWM! I spent eight of those years teaching fifth grade and three teaching 4th grade. This year I\u2019m headed back to 4th grade! I earned my Bachelor\u2019s Degree at Eastern Mennonite University, in May 2005. After teaching for a few years I went back to school to earn my Master\u2019s Degree in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment from Walden University in May 2012. I love learning and am always seeking out new opportunities to learn more \u2013 attending classes, workshops, and conferences.\nFor as long as I can remember I have always wanted to be a teacher. There are few people who can say they love their job but I am certainly one of those people. Growing up I couldn\u2019t wait to be a teacher. My poor brother and sister were my first students as I convinced them to play school with me when we were young. Now I get up every morning and look forward to a wonderful day doing the job I love.\nI was born and raised in Front Royal, VA where I currently reside with my very spoiled Yorkie, named Kody. My family is close by and I\u2019m lucky enough to spend lots of time with my family, specifically my 4 year old nephew, Andrew. In my spare time you can find me reading a book, shopping with family and friends and enjoying a good movie at the theater.\nI am looking forward to a fantastic year. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns at any point during the year.\nMiss Cameron\n\u200bMy name is Mrs. Laurel Gilliom (also known as Ms. Mandel \u2013 I got married in February 2015). This is my 8th year teaching as EWM. Prior to that I taught high school for 3 years. I earned my Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Human Service Counseling from Old Dominion University in 2006, and my Master\u2019s Degree in Special Education from George Mason University in 2009.\nI was born and raised in Winchester, VA, where I continue to reside with my husband and three children ages 15, 10, and 2 years old. We also have 3 dogs, 3 cats, and 3 turtles. My older kids are very involved in sports such as football and cheerleading. The two most important aspects of my life are being a mom and being a teacher. I take pride in believing that I am a good mom and dedicated teacher, which can at times go hand-in-hand.\nI look forward to this school year and working with my students. If you ever have any concerns or questions please feel free to call or e-mail me at any time.\nMrs. Gilliom\nWe are excited to start a new school year and look forward to get to know you and your child.

        "raw_content": "With the advent of the Self-Respect movement in the country, and particularly since it gained some popularity, a certain amount of intellectual disturbance is noticeable amongst the people. At the same time the activation of counter propaganda on the part of the people, who either live by religion or enjoy privileges thereof, is also noticeable. This counter propaganda backed by age old pietism and superstition, has, I am aware, unnerved some social reformers and rationalists. For these reasons, I find it necessary to explain our position in regard to God and religion so that the genuine rationalists and those who would like to go with them may not be assailed by doubts or be not unaware of the dangers.\nProbe into the mysteries\nLet it be understood at the outset that we are people who are not in the least bothered about god or religion and that our principal purpose is to break the shackles that keep our people away from happiness, knowledge and freedom. Strictly speaking, there is no need for Self-Respecters to probe into the mysteries or magic or god or religion; we have been obliged to do so only because these are persistently thrown before us to thwart us in our purpose.\nIt has been maintained that only those, who believe in and worship the heroes of our Puranas as gods, are theists and the rest are anti-god and anti-religion. Nevertheless, it would be desirable to examine what this god or religion is, why they were created, and whether it was out of fear, from good or bad motives, or out of ignorance. For this purpose it would be enough to examine the nature of God, described as a being without a name or form, and of religion, held up as useful to mankind. It may not be necessary to go into details into which religion is divided or subdivided, for the very simple reason that the propagators of the different religions have already spent much energy, time, and money in condemning the beliefs and practices of one another and damaging each other in their missionary zeal. The result, however, is that one has failed to convert or destroy the other and has ended in each just trying to save his particular gods, prophets and creeds and practices. No one has been able to justify his god or creed on the basis of wisdom, justice and truth.\nChildren tutored of god\nLet us see how and when the god-idea came amongst men. The idea must certainly have arisen only after man had grown up and begun to think, because even today, man begins to speak about god only after he has been told and taught about it from childhood onwards. It does not come of its own accord. It is only after little babes are shown idols and other objects as \u201cSamis\u201d (Deities) or gods and made to worship them by the elders helping the little ones to cup their hands, or join their palms that they begin to learn about god. Even so, the idea about god must have come to ancient man only after he was born on earth and before he reached the thinking stage. And yet the thing called god is taken to be responsible for the creation of the universe, its maintenance and destruction,\nWhen was Sakthi made?\nThe question is how and when this primeval energy personified as Sakthi came to be identified with God by early man. So far as our country is concerned, we can only find the causes through our popular gods. The earth, mountains, wind, fire, sun, moon, rivers, stars, rain, lightning, dreadful diseases, monstrous animals, etc. make up our gods. It must be plain at a time when the ancients were not able to know the truth about all these things, they made them all gods for fear of them. The Mountain Himalayas for instance was considered to be and worshipped as the seat of gods, from whose head the rivers originated. When people knew nothing about the lands beyond the Himalaya Mountain, all those lands were regarded as celestial lands even as the southern and eastern lands were taken for \u201cpathala (subterranean) Ioka\u201d and \u201cNaga loga\u201d (World of snakes) respectively.\nEven magic was godly\nEven to this day, man ascribes divinity to all those phenomena that are still beyond his intellect and research. Do we not see youngsters and illiterates regarding the magician as doing something divine just because they are not in a position to see the tricks behind the magic? The attitude of those of us who know the truth with reasoning, is simply to dismiss magic as a combination of tricks expertly done in swift movements, about which we do not know the details, but in which we are certain there is no divinity. Hence what appeared to the same person in his youth as something divine turns out to be simple magic as soon as he is able to judge things for himself, purely because the man has acquired some knowledge. What appears to the layman even now as divine, has ceased to be so, for the scientist. What is still awe-inspiring and divinely wonderful for the Easterner, has been laid bare as understandable truth by the Westerner.\nSnake swallowing Sun and Moon\nThere was a time when our people regarded eclipses of the Sun and the Moon as the evil manifestations of invisible monstrous snakes called Raghu and Kethu periodically perpetrated on the sungod and the moongod. We have Puranas to say that the Sun came under a curse to suffer periodic eclipse, and that to save the sungod from the danger, all people had to take a bath and propitiate the great god. It must be obvious that these beliefs arose at a time when people did not know much about astronomy. Like wise, when the causes of formation of clouds and rain were discovered, the clouds, the rain and the rivers ceased to be gods.\nGun-powder and god\nFear of epidemics and ignorance of methods either to prevent or cure them, created for the people many more gods and goddesses. With the advancement in the principles of hygiene and medicine, the propitiation of deities for diseases like cholera, plague and small pox has become less and less. With the invention of gunpowder and fire-arms, the fear attached to wild beasts like the tiger and the lion got obliterated. What therefore is still beyond human ken, continues to enjoy divine powers, but is sure to dwindle as science and technology progress. What is godly to one is otherwise to another, and this is dependent of the stage to which the one and the other\u2019s knowledge has reached.\nSentimental satisfaction\nTo-day when the Westerners invent some gadget, which we do not understand, much less make for ourselves, we do not immediately credit the Western scientist with divine powers. We must be proud I suppose of that much progress, but so long as full and complete knowledge of the world is wanting, the idea of god will persist. The man who is disappointed after hard labour and expectation, and the man who is unable to make good any serious loss, will continue to obtain sentimental satisfaction by ascribing the result to divine powers or fate.\nBlame or praise for failure or success\nA being or power that is above us controlling all things, acts as the source of hope and refuge in danger for the uninitiated. But those who try to understand nature, either are aware of human limitations or are prepared to admit that certain things are simply beyond their understanding or control. It must therefore be clear that ideas about god and divinity differ in accordance with the state of scientific knowledgle of different people. The blame or praise accorded to god for failure or success in life varies in proportion to the intellectual advancement of different people.\nScience has opened up many of nature\u2019s mysteries and exploded the miracle in many phenomena. It can therefore be said that faith in god progressively declines with advancement rational in knowledge; and where there is less of science there is more of god in lands where rationalism has not made much headway, people discern the hand of god in almost everything they touch and see. We still notice among our masses some people getting god \u2013 possessed. It is only among barbaric people that stories about gods and goddesses possessed of all human and beastly passions find favour.\nPuranas believed no more\nPeople, who some time ago believed in the Puranas (Mythologies) as true stories of god-men on earth, are to-day hesitant in their avowals; but in order to cover their ignorance and vested interests, they try hard to import science into their old Puranas. Indeed they are finding it hard to retain the faith of people, who are increasingly taking courage to reject whatever science has proved to be false and make-believe. Artificial rain, bringing back the dead to life though for a little while, the radio and the cinema, have all emphasized man\u2019s inventive genius and ability to conquer nature. Even the masses have not failed to be impressed by these scientific achievements though it must be admitted that their old faith in tradition and superstition, though shaken, has not disappeared.\nThe intelligent man is in general an arrogant man. He thinks himself to be all wise and therefore refuses to admit the truism \u201cI do not know\u201d when anything is beyond his reach; instead he quietly brings in god to his aid. It is not easy to change this nature unless wisdom is available in full measure. There are those amongst us, who for selfish reasons and material gain, will continue our blind faith, though subjectively convinced of their untruth, only to continue our exploitation of the credulous masses. There are many, who can subsist only if religion and superstition prevail; and they will leave no stone unturned to keep their trade going, whatever the bad effect on the people.\nFist error committed by man\nEarly man, when he emerged from a savage nomadic existence to settle down in colonies, found the need for some rules of life, for no co-operative society or association can function even for a day without accepted or enforced rules. These rules of conduct slowly developed into religion. To enforce these rules, penalties were imposed for disobedience. When penal provisions were found not to act properly, or when people were found to disregard the rules in private or act against them in secret, the rulers must have deemed it necessary either for public good or selfish ends or both to add the sanction of god to the rules. When people were told that the displeasure of the gods would attack them, even when rules were disregarded in private homes or secret places, the enforcement of order in society must have become easier and simpler. Indeed the rulers must have found that it was easier to deceive and exploit the people in the name of god and religion, by saying that \u201cgod made the rules\u201d and that \u201cgod would punish them for disobedience, if not in this life definitely in the next life\u201d, and so on. I believe that this was the time when man committed his first error.\n\u201cMy religion is truer and bigger\u201d\nTo examine the nature of the rules of conduct, it has to be noted that the physical condition of the country, the character of the people, and age of civilization, in other words, place, people and time, have mostly determined them. The innocence and ignorance of the masses and the selfish aggrandizing tendencies of the privileged and exploiting classes also played a large part in determining the rules, more particularly of the latter. When however the rules do not suit a certain section, either because of the lapse of time or a change in the condition of the people, a section detached itself from the main community and set itself up elsewhere, either by simple colonization or by conquering and subjugating weaker people in a distant land. Thereafter a new set of rules or a new religion in some ways different from the old one slowly evolved itself, and more often than not stood in opposition to the older religion, giving room for the fanatics to say, \u201cmy religion is bigger and truer\u201d. The seeds for hatred and warfare would then have been sown truly and well.\nReligious and temporal leaders have on occasion tried to bring about peace in the affairs of the tribes, not so much by abandoning the old rules as by interpreting the old rules in a new light. These efforts have only ended in creating new religions or creeds without ever liquidating the old religion sought to be reformed. These subdivisions and multiplications of religion have made confusion worse confounded in the mater of establishing any truth but have definitely succeeded in solidifying certain creedal practices and rituals as peculiar to each group, and these alone differentiate and divide the people. The essentials of early religious social conduct would not only have vanished into oblivion, but would have been metamorphosed into something opposed to the original principles, in as much as the rules have been changed and adapted to serve the selfish and exclusive purposes of the privileged classes. This is actually what we witness to-day in almost all religions. The mass of the people are misled, misguided and deceived to serve and slave for the benefit of a lazy priestly class, and arrogant aristocracy, or a supine plutocracy.\nMurder and misery by religion\nThe evil effects of religion are apparent to all those who wish to see. In the first place man\u2019s intellect gets very badly influenced. The bigot, who pins his faith in his own religion and his own god, fails either to grant a similar status to another religion or to discredit his god for having allowed the other religion or religions to come into being.\nNobody seems to ask whether god will create different religions only to make them fight each other and create bloodshed, murder and misery in the grand design. This simple truth does not even reach the subtle brains of the great Acharyas or prophets. Instead, each one struts about as the most correct and truest intermediary of god on earth, born for the set purpose of leading man to godhead. How far religion has despoiled men\u2019s minds by the above process can be gauged by the religious wars and fights, that fill man\u2019s history on earth.\nSecondly religion has divided man from man instead of uniting all mankind in one fold. Thirdly, religion is primarily interested in making the faithful conform to certain outward forms or peculiar dress, and not stressing correct conduct or culture. Fourthly, there is no scope whatsoever for a rational approach to questions of religion, for every religion insists on blind belief without question some propositions and tenets albeit unacceptable to conscience or intellect. Nor is it permissible for the faithful to believe a part and doubt or disbelieve the rest. Fifthly, religion creates as set of go-betweens or brokers between god and man and makes the practices and interpretations of these brokers or priests authoritative and far superior to the commonsense and practical experience of the laymen. Lastly, religion prescribes salvation in proportion to the money spent on the priests and the temples, however heinous the sins of the man may be. This complacent solution helps man to amass wealth by atrocious means and live later in lazy luxury unconscionably built on the sweat and toil of the common man.\nFurthermore religion makes men cowards in life. Truth, freedom, and self-respect are lost to the religionist. Superstition reigns supreme. The Saivite devotee concludes that all his sins will be washed away, if only he smears a little ash on his body. Scoundrels and humbugs pass as pious specimens of humanity by painting some religious mark prominently on their foreheads. Indeed these marks have come to cover hypocrisy, blackmarketing, deceit and cunning. An ardent Vaishnavite proclaims that if the name of Rama is once uttered, all sins will evaporate, since Rama is the only god to give salvation. Even so the pious Christian believes that Jesus alone can lead men to heaven, and that no other god can even offer any warmth. Like wise the Muslim believes that every word in the Koran is god\u2019s own word and that not a line in it could be changed. If such is the attitude of each religion, one wonders where the truth is to be found and how peace can be secured.\nSource : Collected Works of Periyar E.V.R\nPublished by The Periyar Self-Respect\nPropaganda Institution, Chennai.\nNo Responses to \u201cMATERILISM\u201d",

        "title": "Public Houses in East & West Molesey - Poyntz Arms",
        "raw_content": "In 1866 Mr. Francis Bowry, a cab proprietor, living in Pemberton Road, opened a new public house which had been erected on the corner of Manor and Walton Roads.\nThe village of East Molesey was then in an expanding state. Every year more and more houses were going up, and Mr. Bowry had good reason, therefore, to believe that the licensing authorities would allow him to open it as an inn. However, in spite of a petition signed by numerous residents, including the vicar of St. Paul's Church, and a letter from the dowager Lady Clinton of Molesey Park; in favour of the request, the bench refused to grant his application [119].\nIn the following year he again applied, the petition in his favour now being supported by three clergymen, two churchwardens, and one hundred and seventeen other people. But still it was turned down, the magistrates deeming \"that the requirements of the neighbourhood did not yet demand another licensed house\" [120].\nNevertheless, he persisted, and in 1868, when most of the landlords of surrounding inns had dropped their opposition, his request was allowed, and he received his license [121].\nMr. Bowry was so grateful for the assistance he had received from Lady Clinton in his attempts to open the inn, that he wanted to name the house after her and call it the \"Clinton Arms\". The Clinton family, it was said, was horrified at the thought of their name being associated with anything as low as a public house and objected. Whereupon the good lady replied: \"Never mind. If you still want to call it after me, you can use my maiden name. They cannot demur at that\", and, as she had been a Miss Poyntz, the \"Poyntz arms\" it became.\nAlthough constructed at the height of Victorian opulence the Poyntz is no gin palace. Its restrained architectural style exhibits neither the brash boldness of the Europa nor the flamboyance of the Prince of Wales. It is to be seen at its best in the Spring, when the wisteria clad walls are awash with azure splendour. The late Mr. W.G. Roberts, a one-time member of the old Molesey Council, told the present writer that he was born a few doors away in Manor Road, and that the wisteria was planted in the same year as his birth. It means, therefore, that it has flourished here since 1872.\nMr. Bowry still kept up his business as a cabby, or fly proprietor as he was named, from the stables at the rear of the public house. He died in 1901, having been the landlord of the Poyntz for almost fifty years.",

        "raw_content": "n a study, Assistant Professor Sonia Ghumman from the UH M\u0101noa Shidler College of Business found that Hijabis (Muslim women who wear headscarfs) encountered discrimination when seeking employment.\n\"We conducted a field experiment to investigate the extent to which individuals wearing religious attire encounter discrimination during the hiring process,\" said Ghumman. \"We asked students (ages 19-22) from several ethnic backgrounds to seek employment with and without the hijab (headscarf) at retail stores and restaurants in two shopping malls. The malls were located primarily in middle-income cities in the Midwest. The job seekers were paired with an observer and yielded a total of 112 trials.\"\nThe study measured:\n1) formal discrimination, marked by explicit negative behaviors such as outright refusal.\n2) interpersonal discrimination, a more subtle expression of discrimination both in nonverbal and verbal behaviors; and\n3) expectations to receive job offers.\nAccording to Ghumman, the findings revealed that wearing a hijab had a negative impact in all aspects of the hiring process compared to Muslim women who did not wear a hijab. The field experiment tracked several areas of the hiring process, including the permission to complete job applications, job availability, job call backs, interaction time, and perceived negativity and lack of interest by the employer.\nThe study also found that Hijabis had lower expectations of receiving job offers than Muslim women who did not wear the hijab, and that Hijabis were more likely to be hired by organizations with high employee diversity.\nAccording to Ghumman, out of all of the religious symbols and clothes, the hijab is one of the most visual identifiers of Islam, yet Hijabis remain an understudied group in the U.S. when it comes to workplace discrimination. These findings give practical value to recruitment agencies, organizations and Hijabis seeking employment, and helps in the training of individuals who have contact with such job applicants.\nA recent publication by Ghumman and co-researcher Ann Marie Ryan of Michigan State University, titled, \"Not welcome here: Discrimination towards women who wear Muslim headscarf,\" outlines their findings and can be found in the May 2013 issue of Human Relations.\nThis is Ghumman's second study related to Hijabis in the workplace. Her previous research, titled, \"The downside of religious attire:\nThe Muslim headscarf and expectations of obtaining employment,\" looked at several variables that may contribute to the lack of employment opportunities for Hijabis.",

        "raw_content": "Hearts that Help Cambodia\nTwo years ago, on February 12, 2012, my mom and I arrived in Siem Reap, Cambodia after just spending over two weeks in Vietnam, so when, this month, I learned about an organization right here in Rhode Island, Hearts that Help, which benefits education and health care agencies in Cambodia, I was eager to learn more.\nFounded in 2003, Hearts that Help began when a family in Rhode Island, who had adopted their daughters from Cambodia just before the country closed itself to international adoptions, asked the girls if they had any ideas for helping children and families in their native country. The girls suggested sewing hearts for Valentine\u2019s Day launching Hearts that Help.\nToday, the organization hosts, and encourages others to host, sewing events which build community while creating for a cause. The hand-sewn hearts are then sold at local fairs and farmers markets and the donations are given to Angkor Hospital for Children, providing free healthcare to children in Siem Reap and the surrounding area, The Lake Clinic, which delivers medical aid to floating villages in Cambodia, and The Cambodian Arts & Scholarship Foundation, a leader in educating young girls, the population most at risk for being pulled from school and sold into the horrifically rampant sex industry in Cambodia.\nDuring our tour of Cambodia two years ago, we explored its history from the centuries old temples in Angkor to museum that was a prison under the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot. Our guide, Khet, generously shared his culture and country with us and the fact that 60% of Cambodia\u2019s population is under 16 years old; Pol Pot\u2019s regime killed a quarter of Cambodia\u2019s population. Unfathomable horrors.\nTraveling from Vietnam, which was definitely third world but had an enterprising spirit, Cambodia had an ever greater sense of poverty and underdevelopment. Being there and reading books like Never Fall Down and First They Killed My Father by Loung Ung (one of my recommended great book club books) draws me to Hearts that Help and the desire to help the Cambodian people grow and be able to provide quality medical care and education to their children and families. To learn more, visit Heart that Help.\nTags: Angkor Hospital, Cambodia, Cambodia hospitals, Cambodian Arts and Scholarship Foundation, first they killed my father, hand sewn hearts, handcrafted hearts, Hearts that Help, Loung Ung, Rhode Island and Cambodia, Siem Reap, The Lake Clinic",

        "title": "Movie Critic Dave | Review | The Sapphires",
        "raw_content": "Review | The Sapphires\nBack in October, I managed to view over 20 films during the Philadelphia Film Festival. But despite seeing many big-named releases such as Silver Linings Playbook, Flightand Cloud Atlas, I kept hearing rumblings about an Australian independent film called The Sapphires. Scheduling conflicts forced me to miss the movie, however, The Sapphires still managed to boast a pair of impressive sellout shows. Therefore, when the indie film made another trip back to Philadelphia last night, I refused to miss out on the experience.\nThe Sapphires tells the true story of four female Australian aboriginal singers who join forces with an outgoing talent scout (played by Chris O'Dowd) and journey to Vietnam to entertain U.S. troops in 1968. Throughout the danger-filled tour all over hostile parts of Vietnam, the girls and their manager must carefully learn how to balance ambition, love and deep-rooted family issues all while increasing morale for the American troops that they're entertaining.\nFilled with a fantastic soundtrack, talented acting and a genuine story, The Sapphires serves as a rich and delightful piece of family entertainment. The Australian indie film made its world premier at the Cannes Festival in May, 2012. The credits rolled to a monstrous standing ovation and, at that exact moment, The Sapphires became much larger than anyone could have ever imagined. What mainly sets the movie apart is its semi-animated characters that the cast and script so brilliantly elaborate. The unbreakable bond formed between the audience and the story is slowly built on the shoulders of the film's leading star, Chris O'Dowd. Many will recognize O'Dowd as the lovable police officer who wins the heart of Kristen Wiig in the comedy hit Bridesmaids. However, the long time actor's career has finally begun to blossom and The Sapphires reminds us all that his talents are awfully impressive. This may be O'Dowd's finest work yet, as his on-screen romance with co-star Deborah Mailman becomes the make-or-break cornerstone of the feature. In addition to the fine performances from O'Dowd, Mailman and the rest of the cast, The Sapphires also incorporates stellar cinematography and outstanding direction from the man behind the curtain, Wayne Blair. Their economical approach and stunning perspective bring life to the film and help elevate The Sapphires to stardom.\nAlthough the film is clearly a success, The Sapphires is far from perfection. The movie begins in a patchy and brow-raising manner in which many of the stories are pieced together ineffectively. The first act suffers from a messy concoction of back-story overload and meandering ideas. But thanks in large part to Chris O'Dowd's character, The Sapphires manages to correct its course by delivering a toe-tapping and rhythmic flow that sway-fully carries the audience all the way through the film's emotionally charged mid-section and conclusion. By surviving a sputtering beginning, Blair and company's remarkable true story comes to life in an unforgettable fashion.\nThe Sapphires is an entertaining blend of comedy and drama. Its light-hearted moments are complemented by intense war scenes and dramatic flair, perfectly illustrating the well-rounded nature of the film. If you can find enjoyment in a quasi-musical (there are numerous singing sequences throughout), then there's plenty to love about Wayne Blair's The Sapphires. Due out in limited release on March 22nd, The Sapphires is a worthy watch.\nGordon Westman\nTristan Whalley\nSoon Kie Lee",

        "title": "Positive impact from Regions-AmSouth deal anticipated - Mississippi Business Journal",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb FOCUS \u00bb Positive impact from Regions-AmSouth deal anticipated\nPositive impact from Regions-AmSouth deal anticipated\nThe proposed merger of Regions Financial Corp. and AmSouth Bancorporation, expected to be approved and finalized later this year, will probably result in layoffs at the some of the bank branches in Mississippi, but positive impacts are also expected in the state.\nThe merger could cost 10% to 15% of the 37,000 jobs at the two institutions, cuts that will help the company in a goal to reduce costs by $400 million by 2008. Many of the job cuts are expected to be in Alabama, where the two banks have the most overlap.\nIt is too early in the process to know how many jobs might be lost in Mississippi, said Sonya L. Smith, vice president and manager of national media relations and executive communications for Regions.\n\u201cWe do have more overlap markets in Alabama,\u201d Smith said. \u201cBut at this time, we are still waiting to hear from the Department of Justice regarding divestitures. As in any transaction of this kind, there is the unfortunate reality that some associates/employees from both companies may lose their jobs. However, we expect that the number of people directly affected will be reduced because the normal pace of attrition will address many of the position reductions. All of our decisions will be made carefully with consideration and respect for the people who have helped build two great companies.\u201d\nRegions mortgage headquarters will be moved from Memphis to Birmingham, but the servicing operations will remain in Hattiesburg \u2014 good news for Hattiesburg employees.\nSmith said they expect that the growth of the company, that combined will have five million customers, will lead to expanded career opportunities for associates. And she said the new company will work diligently to place associates in open positions. Employees who lose their jobs as a result of the merger will receive severance and transition assistance to help them find new positions.\nSmith said the combined company, which will retain the Regions name, will provide long-term benefits for shareholders by creating a regional financial powerhouse with a broad and balanced mix of business for sustained growth.\n\u201cThis strategic partnership of Regions and AmSouth represents a powerful combination of a leading presence in our core markets and strong, complementary business lines like Morgan Keegan, one of the leading securities brokerage companies in the United States, and AmSouth\u2019s successful trust and private banking businesses,\u201d Smith said. \u201cRegions and AmSouth share a common desire and dedication to improving the quality of life in the communities we serve. We will continue our support of the communities in which our customers and associates work and live.\u201d\nConsolidation, but\u2026\nCommissioner John Allison, Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance, said some bank branches in Mississippi are expected to be closed as a result of the merger.\n\u201cIt would mean some consolidation in Mississippi, but not to the extent that would be seen in other states, like Alabama, where there is a lot of overlap in several markets,\u201d Allison said. \u201cIn that situation where two merged institutions go together, if the resulting institution takes more than 50% of the market, there has to be some divestiture, and the institutions know that. They will have to put the excess deposits, if you will, on the market for bid by other institutions. There will be a couple of places in Mississippi where that will be required. Under our law, only Mississippi banks will be allowed to bid on those institutions because it will be just branches for sale.\u201d\nUnder Mississippi law, an out-of-state bank can\u2019t come in and buy just a branch. It must purchase the entire bank system.\nWhile there might be some front end job losses in Mississippi as a result of the merger, Allison believes most of the employees won\u2019t have a problem getting another job.\n\u201cIt will be competent bankers and rank-and-file people who will be moved to other institutions,\u201d Allison said. \u201cThey will be absorbed in the system. If one of these branches is sold, for example, the acquiring bank will need the personnel.\u201d\nAllison speculated that most of the downsizing might be at the big operations center in Alabama.\nIn the Jackson area, Allison doesn\u2019t expect Regions will be mandated to divest. But there are several other locations in the state where there is more overlap, and some divestiture may be required.\nThe merger could end up being positive for the state.\n\u201cIt will bring a huge financial institution to the market that can do some things some of the smaller companies can\u2019t, without partnering with other institutions,\u201d Allison said. \u201cRegions consolidated institutions will be worth $145 billion, which will make it according to the press release, the 10th largest banking institution in America.\u201d\nRegions and AmSouth have committed to a $100-billion investment in the region over the next seven years to support community development, small business lending and mortgage lending for low-income communities and borrowers. That includes at least $50 billion in loans to small businesses; $40 billion in mortgages to low- and moderate-income families or families in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods; $10 billion in community development lending and investments; formation of the Regions Community Development Corporation to provide technical assistance to nonprofit organizations; promoting responsible lending practices and fair lending initiatives; and expanded homeownership and financial literacy programs.\nWhile that will be spread out among the 16 states the bank will operate in, Allison said that is a very good commitment, and there should be some people in Mississippi who benefit.\n\u201cI know several of the institutions in the top tier of banking institutions, in the top 10 or 15, have very similar programs and they have worked very well,\u201d Allison said. \u201cIt gives some people who might be struggling access to capital markets. They may be in good shape, but this helps them get over the hump.\u201d\nContinuing a trend\nThe merger of Regions and AmSouth continues a consolidation trend in banking. When Allison started in banking regulation 35 years ago, there were approximately 20,000 financial institutions in the country. Now there are less than 9,000.\n\u201cIs that better or worse?\u201d Allison asks. \u201cUsually mergers of this type, or even in state, spin off new institutions. It turns out to be good. Deposit Guarantee and First American out of Nashville merged, spurring several new charters in Mississippi for community banks. There are always going to be the new players who want to help the community. Bigger isn\u2019t always better, but they do offer a lot of products and services.\u201d\nAllison expects the trend for consolidation to continue.\nLittle impact is expected on customers. Allison said situations like this are common in the banking industry, and it takes great pride in making sure acquiring customers are treated properly.\nPrevious: Survey examines top site selection factors\nNext: Gulf Coast Business Council plans to hire staff and build facility to promote recovery",

        "raw_content": "Thom Yorke relaxed if PM likes Radiohead\nmichellzappa, Wikimedia Commons\nThom Yorke is pretty relaxed about whether or not Prime Minister David Cameron likes Radiohead. While fellow veteran rockers Paul Weller and Johnny Marr have expressed their dismay at featuring in the PM\u2019s CD collection, Yorke isn\u2019t that bothered, although it would be difficult to picture Cameron and Samantha tapping a toe to 'Electioneering' or 'Idioteque'.\n\"I can't say I love the idea of a banker liking our music, or David Cameron,\" Yorke told Dazed and Confused. \"But I also equally think, who cares? As long as he doesn't use it for his election campaigns, I don't care. I'd sue the living **** out of him if he did. I can't believe he'd like King of Limbs much anyway.\"\nAlthough several Radiohead songs have expressed a visceral disgust with British politics and politicians, it\u2019s not a subject that Yorke wants to address constantly. \"Politics is not a fun thing to write about,\" he said. He attended a climate change conference in Denmark, but the experience was chastening. Although he gives his support to several global causes, he is not about to become another Bono, hobnobbing with world leaders.\n\"I went to the Copenhagen summit, and that permanently flipped my lid, because the whole thing was so wrong.\u201d He said. \"Obama stormed straight past me after the meeting he had with China, and it was just horrible. It sort of spun me out permanently to be honest. When you're presented with that level of stupidity it king of blows your mind.\"\nRadiohead\u2019s shows in the autumn of 2012 were greeted with adoring reviews, demonstrating that, after more than 20 years, the band is still feeling a creative vigour and still exploring new musical territories.\nIn 2013 Yorke is taking a break from Radiohead to work on a side-project Atoms of Peace, releasing an album, Amok, in February.\nThom Yorke Radiohead,\nThom Yorke and his all-star band make live debut\nNigel Goodrich and Thom Yorke pull albums from Spotify in protest at business model\nCameron threatens benefits clampdown on foreign claimants\nCameron under pressure after EU withdrawal threat\nSchofield says sorry for PM gaffe",

But that\u2019s easier said than done. Both payers and providers have capabilities, mindsets, and extensive infrastructure in place to support fee-for-service payment. Despite some experimentation with emerging payment and delivery models, there are still significant hurdles to conceptualizing and implementing alternative frameworks.\nPayers, however, must take the lead in addressing these challenges. While there haven\u2019t been incentives in the past to make meaningful changes, not doing so now opens the door to competition and disruption. If insurers don\u2019t accelerate the adoption of new payment and delivery models that bend the cost curve and improve outcomes, they will almost certainly find themselves losing share to more sophisticated competitors, disintermediated by integrated delivery networks, or saddled with government mandates and regulations.\nPayers must become stakeholders in the success of providers, working in tandem and collaborating in new ways. They\u2019ll need to incentivize providers to deliver care using new approaches. At the same time, they must also redesign their organizations, processes, and systems to enable this major shift in thinking and operations.\nNumerof can help you accelerate the adoption of new payment and delivery models.

In the meantime, China could show just how serious they are about counterfeits and protecting consumers by imposing marking requirements on fake coins and bullion sold on these sites,\u201d Smith said.\nAlthough it is too early to judge the law\u2019s effectiveness, Smith was quick to credit the Trump administration and United States Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer for China\u2019s supposed policy shift. \u201cBy allowing the PMANA and other industries to participate in the USTR\u2019s Special 301 Review and Notorious Markets List report, the Trump administration recognized just how egregious Alibaba\u2019s practices were and put China on notice,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s something we have not seen in recent years.\u201d\nIn the months leading up to the law\u2019s implementation, the PMANA will conduct a comprehensive review of the new law, and release its findings and recommendations.

        "raw_content": "Autoimmune Diseases: Women's Business\nAutoimmune Diseases: Women\u2019s Business\nThe immune systems of women and men are very different. Women have a better chance of surviving severe infections. With regard to autoimmune diseases, however, women are rather more often affected: around 80 percent of such patients are female.\nMen are more susceptible to pathogenic viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. Statistics demonstrate that women generally have a better chance of surviving serious infections. It is therefore implied that sex hormones have a significant influence on the immune system and ultimately provide for a more effective body defence in the female. It does appear that hormone-signalling is indeed involved in a variety of effects. It\u2019s also however becoming increasingly clear that genes on the X and Y chromosomes play an important role. An article published in the journal PNAS a few weeks ago shows just this.\nWith this in mind, Cory Teuscher and her colleagues from the University of Vermont bred mice whose genetic makeup matched for all chromosomes other than the Y chromosome, and exposed the animals to pathogenic influenza A and Coxsackie B3 viruses. Depending on the origin of the Y chromosome, the immune responses to influenza differed. Certain variants promoted inflammatory processes in the lungs and the activation of the respective lung cytokines such as IL-17. The researchers found a similar segregation with respect to the male sex chromosome in the response to Coxsackie. Previous studies show that autoimmune processes such as the MS model in the EAE (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis) mouse are also dependent on genes on the Y chromosome.\nInfluenza A strain infections have caused about a million deaths over the last hundred years. Women are much more frequently and severely affected than men. The same is true for infections with the HI virus. After infection with the virus, women have about 40 percent less RNA in the blood than men. Despite this, the risk of an AIDS onset is 1.6 times higher.\nIn the instance of serious sepsis infections, the main pathogenic agents involved differ from one another simply due to the differentiation between the male and female anatomy. In the female, bacteria usually arrive via the urogenital tract and are more likely to be Gram-negative, whereas the predominantly Gram-positive pathogens in men tend to search out a path into the body by going through the airways.\nMassive-scale female defence\nThe genders also differ when it comes to the the body\u2019s immune system itself being attacked. About 80 percent of patients with autoimmune disease are female. Asthma occurs more frequently in women and is more severe. The same also applies to systemic anaphylactic reactions. Cases where the immune system attacks its owner\u2019s digestive tract, as occurs with irritable bowel syndrome, happen in women two to four times more frequently than in men.\nFinally, the sexes also differ in their response to protective inoculations. In almost all common vaccinations the antibody response in women is significantly higher than in men. This means, in turn, that girls need a lower vaccine dose for the same titre than do boys. However, the risk of local and systemic reactions is higher.\nWhen taking into consideration all types of pathogenic microorganisms, men are more likely to be the target of an infection than are women; in the female the pathogens mostly strike a massive defence system and this therefore leads to higher survival rates. This rule applies to almost all higher creatures. With respect to humans a higher titre of NK cells is present in men; neutrophils and macrophages in contrast are all the more active in women. Antigen-presenting cells (such as dendritic cells) perform their tasks better in women than in men.\nSex hormones and chromosomes\nIn addition to the differences in the human body structure, such as the larger mucosal surface in the genital tract, a series of gender-specific factors are involved in the induction of the immune response. An entire arsenal of genes on the X chromosome has an influence on the defence system. From among approximately 1100 genes, many are not affected by the inactivation of the second X-chromosome. In mice this figure is about seven percent, in humans fifteen. Included among the X-chromosomal encoded proteins are important cytokines such as IL-13. IL-4.IL-10 and TLR (toll-like receptor 7, important for innate immune defence) and FoxP3, a transcription factor for regulatory T cells. So far little studied, but apparently no less important, are genes on the Y chromosome, which were more closely scrutinised by the scientists working with Teuscher in Vermont.\nSexual hormones regulate a whole series of metabolic pathways, including the expression of numerous genes in B and T cells, mast cells, dendritic cells, macrophages and NK cells. Studies have also shown that oestrogens influence the methylation patterns of genes in immune cells. These genes thus show a level of activity proportionate to the hormone level. Testosterone weakens the activity of NK cells and like other androgens ensures an anti-inflammatory response. In contrast, there is hormone-independent regulation of these epigenetic modifications by factors encoded on the sex chromosomes X and Y.\nWell-filled inflammatory munition depots\nAdam Moeser and his colleagues from Michigan State University similarly posed the question as to why women have a stronger response to stress and allergens than do men. With this in mind they got to work dealing with one of the main actors in these reactions: mast cells. In a comparison between the sexes, they found more than 8,000 diversely expressed genes. In a mouse model they simulated both mental stress and IgE mediated anaphylactic shock. The serum histamine level was found to be higher in females and intestinal permeability increased more than in the males. In the examined mast cells, the female mice stored far more inflammatory mediators and also released these factors.\nIn the female mast cells, the granules are more densely packed and contain more immune mediators. \u00a9 A. Moeser, Michigan State University\nThe exact mechanism behind the gender-specific regulation of immune defence is still not largely understood. For a long time the controversial immunocompetence-handicap model was held to be true. It stated that, among other things, testosterone strongly promotes the formation of secondary male sex organs, but this is at the expense of the immune system, which then allows a higher pathogenic load. Many nowadays regard this hypothesis to be obsolete. It appears, however, that the effective immune response protects the woman against serious infections but is conducive to inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.\nFemale power in clinical trials\nMore knowledge about the exact mechanisms leading to the differentiated control in men\u2019s and women\u2019s immune systems might lead to better intervention options \u2013 and not only for disorders or overreactions to the microbial attacks on humans. In patients with multiple sclerosis for instance, one topical treatment using testosterone slowed down brain atrophy.\nMoreover the controlling authorities in the USA and Europe are ever more often demanding a balanced gender ratio with respect to the planning and interpretation of studies \u2013 even in animal experiments in the preclinical area. If we want to further personalise our therapies, we cannot afford to overlook gender medicine. Unravelling and undertaking separate studies on the influence of hormones, of the genes of the sex chromosomes, and not least those of our environment, is only the first step.\nDisciplines: Internal medicine, Medicine, Research\nTags: gender medicine, Immune system, sex hormones, Y-chromosome\nMucosa-associated immune system (Frank Geisler)\nImmune system, various aspects (Frank Geisler)\nImmune reaction in case of allergy (Frank Geisler)\nLymphatic system (Bettina Beutler)\nImmune reaction to allergy (Frank Geisler)\nEctopics, women and hormones\nBack pain - does relief come from sport medicine?\nPersonalised Medicine: The All-In-One Pill 06.09.2016\nLeverage in Transplantation Medicine 20.04.2007\nGonorrhea: tough sex offenders 19.08.2011\nSex and Violence: Neurons in the Grey Zone 21.06.2016",

        "raw_content": "Historic Health Care Reform Success - Now it's time for immigration reform!\nOver unanimous GOP opposition the House of Representatives passed a sweeping bill overhauling the U.S. medical system late Sunday evening, delivering a historic victory to Obama. This Monday President Obama will sign it into law. It has been over forty years since since Medicare and Medicaid were enacted. Since that time that has not been any law that has had such a significant affect on the growth of federal health care guarantees. The unprecedented Sunday evening votes took place after an extraordinary weekend of passionate negotiations among House leaders, individual Congress member and the White House.\nRepublicans tried their best, applying practically every weapon they could find in their legislative arsenal. but at the end they collapsed and the the Democratic health care's passage created history.\nThe $940 billion plan is intended to provide insurance coverage to roughly 32 million uninsured Americans. The bill, which is the \"first step\" towards universal coverage signifies Obama's unique ability to organize and control Congress to approve a bill that has been unattainable since Democratic president Truman attempted the same. As a result of the passage of the bill most Americans will be required to have health insurance or pay a fine. Large employers will have to provide coverage or risk financial penalties.\n\"This is what change looks like,\" Obama said shortly after the votes. The passage of health care reform is \"not a victory for any one party. ... It's a victory for the American people and it's a victory for common sense.\" The president was visually pleased when he said that this healthcare reform initiative proves Americans \"are still a people capable of doing big things.\"\nRepublicans unhappy with the bill are already preparing to wage war. They will try to argue that the bill is unconstitutional and try to prevent it from taking effect. The chamber was not silent for a second after the final \"Yes\" vote when Michael Steele, the chair of the Republican party sent out a fund-raising e-mail message \u201claunching a Money Bomb in an effort to to raise enough money to to gain 40 house seats to control the House of Representatives.\nEven though Health Care Reform captivated America Sunday another potentially historic event at the National Mall in Washington D.C took place. It is estimated that over 200,000 people appeared in one location with one purpose in mind: comprehensive immigration reform. There are over 11 million people living in the United States in illegal status. They work. pray. pay taxes and have families, yet they live in the shadows of other Americans. They are the illegal immigrants. Many have been living in the United States for more than a decade, establishing deep roots. Under current laws the majority of them cannot \"stand in line\" and become legal residents as anti-immigrant groups have suggested, because there is no law that would give them that right.\nOn Sunday, more than 800 buses from 33 states brought people from around the country to the March for America. Many others carpooled or flew. Many are United States citizens. Along with their children, spouses, friends and and co-workers together they traveled to Washington as advocates for a change in the broken immigration laws.\nNow that healthcare has stepped out of the lime light, it is time for our nation to be informed of the importance of immigrants in our economic, political and social lives. Comprehensive immigration reform would make America more secure, by knowing that these millions of people who are living in the shadows would come out and register their presence here. Once and for all we will know who is here and the government will be in a place to separate the good from the bad; the criminal from the hard working and honest person. Thousands of our best and brightest students, who where brought here as young children and currently have limited access to higher education and legal employment need a chance to live. Now is the time for compressive immigration reform and the Dream Act to became a reality.\nThe November election is around the corner. We will soon see how brave our elected officials are. Will they do the right thing and pass comprehensive immigration reform or will they side step the issue until after November in fear of not getting a vote for re-election. Time will tell.",

Brooks Awards announced\nA University of Georgia horticulturist, weed specialist, atmospheric scientist and county Extension coordinator were honored for their work Oct. 6 in Athens, Ga., during the annual D.W. Brooks Lecture and Faculty Awards for Excellence ceremony.\nPresented by the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, the program is named in honor of Gold Kist Inc. founder D.W. Brooks. A CAES alumnus, Brooks advised seven U.S. presidents on agriculture and trade issues. Although he died in 1999, his promotion of agriculture lives on through the awards.\nThe 2009 award winners were David Berle, Stanley Culpepper, Monique Leclerc and Paul Wigley.\nA CAES horticulturist, Berle brings to the classroom his experience as a county Extension agent, nursery grower, landscape contractor and horticulturist for both the State Botanical Garden of Georgia and the UGA Grounds Department.\nHe teaches introductory horticulture, landscape design, GIS applications for landscape managers and Project FOCUS. To keep large classes of students interested, Berle asks his students to carve pumpkins, cook potluck suppers, raise houseplants and be a \"professor for the day.\" Through Project FOCUS, he places students in K-5 classrooms to teach science lessons.\nA native of North Carolina, Culpepper grew up on a bicentennial family farm where cotton, peanut and soybeans were grown. As a UGA Cooperative Extension weed scientist, he focuses on weed control in cotton, vegetables and small grains. He is actively involved in applied weed management research. To deliver research-based information to farmers, he has published more than 200 publications and spoke at 269 Georgia grower meetings.\nLeclerc came to UGA 12 years ago to form the Laboratory for Environmental Physics. Today, the UGA Griffin Campus laboratory is considered a world-class experimental and modeling facility worth more than $1 million. She leads an innovative program in climate change and biogeosciences that consistently attracts the best graduate students from universities in the U.S., Canada, Brazil, Germany, Finland, Spain, Mexico, Korea, Thailand, India and China.\nShe\u2019s brought in more than $21 million in competitive federal grants to the CAES. She has shared her work on the interactions between vegetation and the overlying atmosphere at some of the finest institutions in the world and in the nation, including the University of Oxford, Harvard University, Yale University, National Center for Atmospheric Research, Oakridge and Argonne national laboratories.\nWigley is recognized as one of the most knowledgeable and experienced agriculture and natural resource agents in the U.S. on the subjects of peanut production and disease control. For the past decade, he has focused on the study of Rhizoctonia limb, pod and peg rot in peanuts and its control.\nHe conducted 26 replicated trials evaluating almost 40 fungicides in more than 80 different combinations and systems to study their control of this disease. His work has become the cornerstone for control recommendations for peanut growers in every U.S. peanut-producing state. More than 800 visitors from across the U.S. and nine foreign countries have viewed his research plots and trials.\nFor more information on this year\u2019s winners or the D.W.

        "raw_content": "Read the fine print on gift cards first\nWhen it comes to buying a gift for that hard-to-please person on your shopping list, gift cards may be the perfect solution. They are convenient and popular, and many people view them as the next best thing to cash. A University of Georgia expert warns, unlike cash, gift cards can expire and lose their value.\n\"Different cards come with different terms and conditions related to fees, expiration dates, where you can use them and what happens if they're lost or stolen,\" said Michael Rupured, a UGA Cooperative Extension financial specialist. \"Gift cards are definitely not all created equally. There can be some big differences from one card to another.\"\nSome charge a fee\nSome actually cost more money than what they're worth, he said. For example, a $50 gift card can cost $55.\n\"You've lost $5 from the purchase fee right off the bat with this type of gift card,\" Rupured said. \"Typically, these are the gift cards that can be used at many locations.\"\nGift cards bought directly from a retailer are usually offered at face value, he said. But they may have different charges associated with them.\nA cardholder can be penalized for not using their gift card. Some companies deduct a nonusage fee starting about six months after the card's purchase.\n\"This is a concern, because many people set gift cards aside and forget about them,\" Rupured said. \"And this fee will continue to be subtracted from the card until its value is depleted.\"\nOther fees can apply\nPer-use transaction fees are another possible drawback to using gift cards, he said. This fee is deducted from the gift card if the entire amount isn't used in one transaction.\nRupured said a fee can be charged when you call to check the card\u2019s balance. This could also reduce the face value of some gift cards.\nMost of these fees are explained in the card\u2019s fine print.\n\"All of these fees and terms should be disclosed, perhaps on the card itself,\" he said. \"More often, the fees are explained in a separate document, on a Web site or from a toll-free number.\"\nJust like cash, if you lose a gift card, the person who finds it can pick it up and use it.\nKeep a record of the card information\nFor safety sake, Rupured recommends writing the gift card's unique number on your receipt. Then attach the receipt to the gift card.\n\"The person you give it to will know how much you've paid,\" he said. \"Now they'll have the information they need to replace it if it's lost.\"\nEven with these downsides, as long as you pay attention to the terms, gift cards can be useful, he said.\n\"A lot of retailers don't charge any fees for using their gift cards,\" Rupured said. \"And if you have family or friends in different cities, you can give a gift card from a major retailer. Just check to make sure they have the same retailer near by.\"\nWorried? Write a check\nIf you're leery of gift cards, Rupured suggests giving a personal check.\n\"There aren't any fees associated with it, and the recipients can get the cash and use it anyway they like,\u201d he said.\nDespite your good intentions, your gift card may never be redeemed.\n\"I recently read that a fifth of all gift cards purchased last year were never redeemed,\" Rupured said. \"Recipients said they either didn't have time to go shopping or couldn't find anything to buy.\"",

        "raw_content": "St. Benedict, the common life, and the danger of \"lone-rangers\"; or, What St. Benedict might say to Fr. Corapi\nJuly 11th, Feast of St. Benedict\nAs the Church today celebrates the feast of St. Benedict (according to the Ordinary Form), we consider the common life which the Father of Western Monasticism both defined and defended. In our own day (as I suppose in any period of history), there is a great impulse toward individualism and independence \u2013 and these tendencies often creep into our religious sensibilities through hidden and unseen cracks.\nSt. Benedict defended the institution of common monastic life and recommended this before the solitary life of the hermit. Certainly, the life of the hermit is more perfect than that of the monk, but St. Benedict warns that the hermit\u2019s life is also more dangerous and therefore should only be entered after many years of living the common life of the monastery.\nFar too often, both religious and priests separate pre-maturely from the common life of their community in order to take up a solitary life independent from the monastery or (as the case may have it) from the common life of the diocesan clergy. This tendency toward separatism is very dangerous, as it puts the vocation of the priest or religious in grave jeopardy \u2013 indeed, it can happen that the individual (now outside his community and living independently and according to his own whims) will become so lost as to end up renouncing his vocation and pursuing instead his own plans rather than the will of God which is communicated through his superiors. [Does this story sound familiar to anyone?]\nA consideration of the opening chapter of Holy Rule of St. Benedict will serve to correct this errant tendency.\nThe Holy Rule of St. Benedict, Chapter I: Of the Kinds of Monks\n\u201cIt is well known that there are four kinds of monks. The first kind are the Cenobites: those who live in monasteries and serve under a rule and an Abbot.\n\u201cPassing these over, therefore, let us proceed, with God's help, to lay down a rule for the strongest kind of monks, the Cenobites.\u201d\nFollowing St. Benedicts advice, we will not speak of the despicable rabble who follow their own will rather than the will of their superiors and \u2013 abandoning the common life \u2013 end up losing their vocation in pursuit of their own glory and worldly delights.\nRather, we shall turn to the happy consideration of the benefits of common life. It is the common life which St. Benedict praises most highly \u2013 lifting the cenobites (i.e. monks in community) even above the hermits. Certainly, the life of the hermit is most perfect, but the common life is more necessary as a means of attaining to perfection.\nHow the common life leads to perfection\nSt. Thomas Aquinas (who, as a boy, was himself schooled in the common life of the Benedictines) points out two ways in which the common life brings a monk to perfection: \u201cNow man is assisted in this practice [of perfection] by the fellowship of others in two ways. First, as regards his intellect, to the effect of his being instructed in that which he has to contemplate; wherefore Jerome says (ad Rustic. Monach., Ep. cxxv): \u2018It pleases me that you have the fellowship of holy men, and teach not yourself.\u2019 Secondly, as regards the affections, seeing that man's noisome affections are restrained by the example and reproof which he receives from others; for as Gregory says (Moral. xxx, 23), commenting on the words, To whom I have given a house in the wilderness (Job 39:6), \u2018What profits solitude of the body, if solitude of the heart be lacking?\u2019 Hence a social life is necessary for the practice of perfection.\u201d\nSt. Josemar\u00eda Escriv\u00e1 speaks more directly: \u201cYou class with the character of one person or another \u2026 It has to be that way \u2013 you are not a dollar bill to be liked by everyone. Besides, without those clashes which arise in dealing with your neighbors, how could you ever lose the sharp corners, the edges \u2013 imperfections and defects of your character \u2013 and acquire the order, the smoothness and the firm mildness of charity, of perfection? If your character and that of those around you were soft and sweet like marshmallows, you would never become a saint.\u201d (The Way 20)\nWhat persons are fit for solitary life apart from a community?\nNotice that no one ever is completely separated from community life. Married persons have their spouse and family, priests have their brother priests and parishioners, monks and nuns have their monasteries. Even single lay persons (hopefully) grew up first in the common life of a family. Also, bishops begin as priests first, and have thus experienced the common life \u2013 as an abbot was also first a monk. But we may ask: When it is wise for an individual to move beyond the common life?\nFor most, the answer is probably never. Generally speaking, most people ought to remain in the common life \u2013 this is why marriage is so much safer than lay single life (excepting the common life of certain lay celibates, like the numeraries of Opus Dei). Most lay people should marry, since most people need the common life to come to perfection.\nAmong religious and priests, we must say that (generally) they should remain in the common life as well. Religious can move beyond the common life by two means: Either by becoming the abbot or abbess (and thus being the father or mother of the community) or by becoming a hermit or anchoress. Only those who have already reached perfection should endeavor either life \u2013 one must be upon the unitive way of the perfect (and not merely in the illuminative way of the proficient) before accepting the role of abbot or abbess, or retiring to the solitary life of the hermit or anchoress.\nFor priests, it is most advisable that they remain priests and not aspire to the episcopacy. To become a priest, a man should already have attained to the illuminative way of the proficient; but to become a bishop, a man must be perfect and in the unitive way. How many have lost their souls by accepting the appointment to the episcopacy before having reached the way of perfection! Indeed, the way to hell has been paved with the miters and crosiers of imperfect bishops!\nFinally, it should be added \u2013 following the opinion of St. Thomas Aquinas \u2013 that those dedicated to the active life should never attempt to take on the solitary life while maintaining their activities in the world. The Common Doctor stresses that solitude (i.e. life apart from the community) is a means to perfection through offering ample opportunity for contemplation. As such, \u201csolitude is a means adapted not to action but to contemplation, according to Hosea 2:14, I \u2026 will lead her into solitude; and I will speak to her heart. Wherefore, it is not suitable to those religious orders that are directed to the works (whether corporal or spiritual) of the active life.\u201d (ST II-II, q.118, a.8)\nPractical conclusions drawn from the Rule of St. Benedict\nFrom what has been said, it is clear that solitary life apart from a community is dangerous and ought not to be embarked upon except by the perfect. Moreover, even the perfect should continue to live in community if their work is in the active life. Therefore, anyone who has regular contact with the world, even if their work is solely in the preaching of the Gospel, must not live alone apart from the community but must submit to the common life.\nThough, simply speaking, the solitary life of contemplation enjoyed by the hermit is the most perfect life, we must stress that such perfection is not generally gained in this life. Only rarely are souls called to the life independent of the community \u2013 and, even then, they can only respond to this vocation after having attained perfection through living for many years in the common life with others.\nThis is why, for lay persons, it is better to be married or to live as celibates in community, than to be single and independent \u2013 indeed, the modern phenomenon of single lay persons living alone and independent of any community is quite dangerous to the soul.\nLikewise, for priests, it is better to live either in community (if the priest belongs to a society or order) or to live in the parish community and also in communion with his presbyterate (if the priest is diocesan).\n\u201cLone-rangers\u201d, whether priests, religious, or lay persons, are in a precarious position. The idea of a \u201clone-ranger\u201d is a person who is neither untied to a community nor living a common life, but who is nonetheless active in the world \u2013 even if this activity be entirely evangelical in nature. St. Benedict criticizes such persons as the detestable Sarabites (the third class of monks) who live without a shepherd and seek to create their own sheepfold, rather than to dwell obediently in the sheepfold of the Church.\nSeeking independence and freedom, such persons will often end up losing their vocation \u2013 and, when this occurs, we ought not to be surprised, for their foundation was weak. They were founded on their own conviction and will, rather than on the perfection which is gained through the common life handed down by the tradition of the Church.\nLabels: Religious Life, The Saints\nSaint Theresa of Calcutta left her community, with permission, and lived an active life alone in the world, helping the poorest of the poor.\n\"...lived an active life ALONE in the world...\" -- ever heard of the Missionaries of Charity?\nAfter living in the common life for many years, having reached perfection and spiritual union, Mother Teresa left her community in order to found the Missionaries of Charity.\n[this is not substantially different from a monk/nun becoming abbot/abbess, though greater perfection is required (of course)]\nWhen Mother Theresa left her community, she did not initially found a new order. She worked alone with the poor in the world for many months before founding her order. Also, did Mother Theresa believe that she had reached perfection and spiritual union before leaving her community?\nYou can live in community and still lose your vocation by having the freedom to come and go as you please, as became common after Vatican II. I remember when religious could not leave the convent alone, always had to travel with permission and in pairs. There was much wisdom in that.\nAnonymous...Mother Teresa did leave her community after she received permission to do so and she did not live alone, she founded another community where they live together...very much together. i worked with Mother Teresa in Calcutta and the Nuns live in dormitories...strong community life. Mother Teresa always stressed obedience...for once we step outside holy obedience in order to do our own will, we place ourselves in grave danger.\nI signed my response to 'anonymous' also as 'anonymous' because I don't know how to sign 'florin'\nA great post! I've heard the quote about the road to hell being paved with priest's skulls and the signposts being the mitres of bishops attributed to John Chrysostom but I don't know if it's a popular attribution or not.\nThis reminded me of Seraphim of Sarov who was a monk living in community during his early years, living under the guidance of spiritual fathers and his abbot, and then was called out wilderness for many years, perhaps to cling even closer to God, perhaps to prepare him for even greater service. Which he was eventually called to, become a great spiritual to father many in his late years of his life. God Bless the Monastics. May they continue to inspire us and fight valiantly for the redemption of humanity and the world.\nHello Reginaldus. Isn't the shepherd of someone living alone (me - Lone Rangerette Benedictine oblate) their pastor/oblate director? O may I not be a Sarabite! Thank you so much. I love your blog. St. Benedict pray for us.\nThanks this was really inspiring especially for a young \"cenobite\" friar as myself.\nCertainly, I wouldn't want to imply that all single people are Sarabites; not at all!\nRather, I only point out that there is a danger for single persons ... and it will be good for them to be aware.\nMost definitely, living in obedience to one's pastor and director will help greatly! (obedience to the Church in general is important)\nAlso, the common life gained through the parish is helpful too.\nPeace and blessings to you, and happy feast! +\nI see that florin already addressed the issue of the Missionaries of Charity...\nRegarding whether Mother Teresa believed she had reached spiritual union and perfection before leaving her community -- I would say \"yes\", in fact, it would be sinful to leave without being quite certain of one's spiritual solidity.\nRecognizing that she is in spiritual union and has reached a the level of the perfect is by no means an act of pride -- it is rather to recognize the goodness of the Lord and to trust in his grace.\nAnyone who is not conscious of having reached the unitive way should not -- must not -- attempt to found a religious order, or become a bishop, or become a hermit/anchoress.\nOne grows in perfection principally through the common life ... how dangerous it would be to try to guide others (i.e. as bishop, abbot, abbess, etc) before reaching perfection!\nAnd what of the odd position of those who suffer from something like SSA?\nThis may actually be the best commentary on that priest who shall not be named that is out there.\nSt.Benedict, pray for us.\nWe need a modern day St. Benedict to call Christ's priests back to those important fundamentals, which are tried, true, and ultimately \"safe\" (though they will not appear to be so at the time.)\nDear Reginaldus,\nwhat about those people who haven't managed to find a partner despite feeling a clear, deep vocation to marriage? I'm 27, I don't have any religious/priestly vocation, yet there's been no single girl around me accepting my Catholic faith. I don't want - or just can't - take a wife which is unfaithful to the Church, because of an act of obedience on matters secular girls won't accept (such as NFP). How can I live in the Church without any problem, knowing the vocation to marriage I am experiencing?\nYou refer to the illuminative and unitive ways. Could you explain a little about the three stages and how you define them?\nYou said: \"Though, simply speaking, the solitary life of contemplation enjoyed by the hermit is the most perfect life, we must stress that such perfection is not generally gained in this life.\" -- Do you mean that the unitive way is rarely reached in this life?\nThank you, Father! I enjoy your blog.\nregarding those suffering from same sex attraction (which I believe is meant by \"SSA\" in the 8:21pm comment from 'anonymous'),\nIt may be possible in certain cases for such persons to participate in some aspect of religious life -- not necessarily becoming a monk/nun, but perhaps aiding the community through some work (generally a form of manual labor).\nThey would not live in common, but they could still (perhaps) live on the monastery grounds ...\nAlso, it is important to remember that no-one \"is\" gay. Rather, we assert that some suffer from SSA, but can be healed -- generally counseling with a priest or religious and with a faithful Catholic psychologist will be needed.\nIt is a difficult situation indeed.\nIf you desire married life and are actively looking for that life, then you are not really living as a \"single guy\" in the modern sense.\nStill, you can attest to the difficulty ... desiring the life of marriage, you suffer until you are able to gain that life -- what a witness to the value of the common life!\nStriving to live personal chastity and holiness, and continuing to seek a spouse, you are already doing well.\nThis desire for marriage and common life sets you apart from the wicked rabble I talk about in the post above.\nBe encouraged! The Lord knows what you need before you ask him -- will he not provide for you according to his gracious will?\nIn fact, I think that very very few persons attain to the unitive way of the perfect while still in this life -- this is why I am grateful for purgatory!\nHowever, I would stress that this perfection ought to be IN THE NORM. In other words, the unitive way is not meant to be an exceptional gift, nor is it beyond the normal process of spiritual growth.\nSadly, very few attain to it. Most of us are slow and sluggish souls.\nStill, I would add that, even of those in the unitive way of the perfect, a special vocation and many special graces are needed for an individual to live as a hermit/anchoress (or to become a bishop/abbot/ abbess).\nregarding the three ages of the interior life (briefly):\nPurgative: The way of beginners, only the beginnings of the virtues, purification is primarily the active work of the individual, prayer is either highly affective/emotional or terribly dry and given up easily (i.e. it is only acquired prayer and not too deep), perhaps still some falls into mortal sin, regular falls into deliberate venial sins. This is the 1st and 2nd Mansions of Teresa.\nIlluminative: The way of proficients and the threshold of the mystical life. Solid virtues, living regularly from the gifts of the Holy Spirit, docility to divine providence, passive purification of the senses through accepting all things from God, infused mental prayer which may still be quite dry at times but which perseveres. This is the 3rd and 4th of Teresa.\nUnitive: The way of the perfect and the flowering of the mystical life. Eminent and heroic virtues (as in the saints), perfect humility and charity, patience in all things, infused contemplation and mystical union, perseverance in spite of many trials, no sin at all (not even venial sin), even the character flaws and little faults are burned away. This is the beginning of heaven while yet on earth. It corresponds to the 5th, 6th, and 7th Mansions of Teresa.\nBetween these ages are, first, the dark night of the senses, then the dark night of the soul.\nI hope that helps ... perhaps I will write a post on the ages of the interior life, sometime.\nWhat is it, Father, when you are absolutely abandoned by everyone on earth and, when you plead with the inhabitants of Heaven to help you, no assistance is forthcoming from there either. The soul is hanging unsupported by anyone on earth or in Heaven.\nI agree with your assessment of what a priest should attain to before becoming a bishop. A shepherd should be no less for the good of his flock.\nHere in the US at least it seems that bishops are chosen more for their administrative/political skills than holiness. I think that's why we've gotten into such trouble.\nYou can see just how important the common life is!\nStill, God only allows periods of spiritual dryness and doubt in order to bring about some great good! Remember that the spiritual life isn't about how we \"feel\"; what does it matter if we \"feel alone\", do not think that you are really alone -- Christ died for you! What have you to fear? Now that he lives, shall we be abandoned? OF COURSE NOT!\nRecall St. Joan of Arc when they condemned her saying, \"Joan, you will be alone\" .... \"Yes,\" said the Maid, \"Alone with God!\"\nPeace to your spirit. +\nI truly thank you for the comforting words of yours. It is so said that for Christians the blessing of a matrimony according to the Gospel is becoming so difficult to achieve, even (and especially) in the mostly Catholic Italy I live in. Let us pray for better days and for a recover of matrimony in its fullest sacramental nature...\nI greet you with all my heart: God bless you in your life and in your ministry!\nI read what Veronica said and can feel the pain she expresses. I have been listening to a wonderful podcast series by Fr. Timothy Gallagher on Ignatian Discernment of Spirits here:\nhttp://www.discerninghearts.com/?page_id=1146\nThe series beautifully addresses how to understand and deal with the spiritually desolate times in our lives. If you think this would be of help to Veronica, perhaps you would publish it.\nThank you for your answers, Father. They were helpful. I was surprised when you said that the unitive way corresponds with the fifth, six, and seventh mansions; for some reason I had it in my head that it would just be the seventh.\nA post on the ages of the interior life would be very interesting! I find it very encouraging to read about high levels of virtue.\nThank you for the link. Unfortunately, we do not have high speed internet, and I am unable to listen to audios or view videos.\nFather, I definitely think you should prepare a post on those three 'ways' of St. Teresa. I think it would help a lot of us to make an honest assessment of our lives.\nIt will probably be at least a month (I have all the articles already written for the next few weeks), but I will try and find a day when an article on the spiritual ages will fit.\nI should be more clear: The three \"ways\" or \"ages\" go back to the Fathers of the Church. St. John of the Cross wrote extensively on them as well.\nSt. Teresa spoke of the 7 mansions of the interior castle, which are compatible with the three ages as well.\nPeace to you, and thanks for the encouragement! +",

        "raw_content": "The Risk of Choosing to Stay At Home\nMarch 26, 2013 By NextGen MilSpouse Staff Writer 12 Comments\nAfter reading Military Spouse Success- Just Survive, by Kaye Putnam of Successful Military Wife, I immediately knew I had something to add to the conversation. Even though Kaye \u201calmost didn\u2019t write this post,\u201d I am ever so glad that she did.\nShe posed two questions to her Facebook community:\n1. \u201cWho are the most successful military spouses you know?\u201d\n2. \u201cCurious! What is your dream job?\u201d\nInterestingly enough, the answers the first question didn\u2019t quite get answered the way I, nor Kaye, expected. Where I expected to hear about military spouses who are paving the way in blending their military spouse identity along with their professional identity, respondents listed accolades about spouses like the happiness of her/his family or how graceful one is under pressure.\nUsed with permission from Kaye Putnam of Successful Military Wife.\nAnd even when Kaye pushed to ask about military spouses who balance career and family, she was rebuffed by a commenter that said \u201cthat is not a universal definition of success\u201d.\nOkay, I get that. Success means something different to everybody.\nBut I wonder, is it truly that we, as military spouses, don\u2019t seek professional success or is it that we\u2019ve resigned ourselves to accept a reality that we just can\u2019t have it and have had to seek solace in other definitions of success?\nDare I say, it\u2019s the latter. I think we gave up on ourselves. Because, according to her second question, \u201cWhat is your dream job,\u201d our dreams are still alive and kicking.\nWhich brings me to a bigger question that we really don\u2019t like discussing.\nWhat\u2019s the cost we face, as individuals and as military spouses, when we choose to close the door on our careers, even if it\u2019s just for a few years?\nThe Choice and the Risk: Staying at Home\nFrom Images_of_Money\u2019s Flickr Feed via CC by 2.0.\nI have so many friends, military spouses, who are facing their spouse\u2019s retirement. I want to call it their retirement too, because they\u2019ve sacrificed their own careers in support of their servicemember\u2019s career. They\u2019re finding themselves facing a new normal. And many are desperately trying to reenter the workforce after years of opting out.\nThese women are starting from scratch. It\u2019s humbling and upsetting for them to find themselves at the bottom of the bunch \u2026at entry level (even if they left their industry at the top of their game). Or learning that your only choice is returning to school to retrain.\nWhen we choose to stay-home and sacrifice our career progression, there\u2019s a very real monetary cost that goes along with that. Please know, I know how important and priceless it is to share those precious moments at home with your children nurturing your family. It is a choice I made for myself and for my family.\nDespite my commitment to staying home, I know that every day I stay home\u2026every year I\u2019m out of work\u2026has the potential to have a detrimental affect on my overall financial stability and marketability in the workplace. I choose to stay extremely aware that I am willingly and knowingly putting myself at risk.\nBecause I rely on my spouses income, if he were to perish, it would be on me to rebuild a life for ourselves. Or if we divorced (even though it\u2019s never been something either of us would entertain), I would be at a disadvantage. If he were to get injured and no longer could work to support us, I\u2019d be at disadvantage. My family would be at risk.\nEven though we\u2019ve taken the proper steps to insure ourselves in the event of the unimaginable, there are still steps I\u2019ve taken to hedge my bets against the risks I face from choosing to stay at home:\nMaintaining a blog where I can contribute to the ongoing dialogue in my career field\nStay aware of trends and new practices in my field\nCommitting myself to continuing education in any way I can\nCultivating and nurturing my professional network\nReevaluating and modifying my professional goals\nWe give so much of ourselves to others. We must learn how to take time to grow ourselves and our dreams as well. As beautiful as the choice to stay home is, it comes at a price that we cannot afford to choose to ignore.\nFiled Under: Articles, Career, Parenting, Relationships Tagged With: career, marriage, military family, stay at home parent, working milspouse\nMichelle Campbell says\nGreat article, Adrianna! I think you are right on the money when you say, \u201cWe give so much of ourselves to others. We must learn how to give and nurture ourselves and our dreams as well. As beautiful as the choice to stay home is, it comes at a price that we cannot afford to choose to ignore.\u201d\nI think there is a mindset that exists among a segment of the milspouse population that makes some feel that as spouses our primary priorities should be supporting our service member and their military career and ensuring the overall well being of our immediate family and our extended military family at all costs. Many spouses do this at their own expense because they think their needs are somehow less important than those other things and even feel guilty for wanting something more for themselves. It\u2019s unfortunate because life doesn\u2019t have to be that way unless you want it to be.\nI feel that my husband\u2019s military career is just that, HIS career. This is the path that he chose, and although it was my choice to join him, support him, and stick by him throughout the journey, the Army does not encompass my entire life. Yes, the requirements of military career are quite different than most civilian/corporate careers. It is more dangerous than many and more demanding than most. It takes a special kind of person to do what our military members do and to turn over control of their lives to our government. And, it takes a strong person to accept a life that is controlled by others and to love someone so fiercely that you would pack up your children and your life to follow them anywhere in the world to be with them and tolerate extended periods of separation. There aren\u2019t many civilian spouses who deal with circumstances like this. It\u2019s not a requirement for most civilians to give up on their career ambitions and put themselves last to support their spouse and their career. It is not a requirement for military spouses either! I think we sometimes become so wrapped up in our service members and our families that we forget that we are also individuals with goals and dreams of our own and that we are allowed to have them.\nBut, personal/professional ambitions aside, I agree that we put ourselves at a disadvantage and put our families at risk if we rely solely on our service members to provide for us. Should the unthinkable happen (unfortunately, this is one of those special circumstances we have to think about whether we want to or not), whether it be a significant injury, the end of a marriage, or worse, we have to be skilled and knowledgeable enough to care for ourselves and our children. We need to know how to manage finances, to pay bills, and to provide what we need. We are incredibly fortunate that we now live in a time when we can have a career that satisfies all of those needs while providing the flexibility for us to stay at home and manage all facets of our lives. Technology has opened many doors that offer many options for the today\u2019s military spouse to have it all\u2026if they want it.\nI guess I\u2019m confused about why it\u2019s a risk. I plan to stay home with my babies and homeschool them, and I will be getting a job again once they are out of the house. In the meantime, I get to work on my own education and earn a degree, and know that I am doing what I feel is best for my family. It doesn\u2019t feel \u201crisky\u201d at all- it feels complete and right.\nAdrianna Domingos-Lupher says\nAs long as you\u2019re continuing your career progression forward, that\u2019s mitigating risk. If we stay home and don\u2019t stay current with education and training, that\u2019s where the risk comes in. Staying out of the workforce and not keeping up with our training and professional development makes it really tough to get a job once we\u2019ve been out for 5, 10, or 15 years.\nSuch a great post!!! I have a few thoughts\u2026\nI think we intrinsically know when our life is not matching what we want for ourselves, but we often quiet those voices that once screamed out due to resignation or just a sense of defeat.\nI am thinking from my own experience that one of the potential problems is when our definition of success is defined by a role we play, whether it be as \u201cmom\u201d \u201cwife\u201d \u201csister\u201d \u201cbrother\u201d \u201chusband\u201d (you get the point). We can also allow ourselves to become defined by the job we hold or career we have. When I landed my very first professional job after college, I made the mistake of thinking who I was was defined by what I did for a living. What happened is that I always felt like I was just playing dress-up. I wasn\u2019t allowing myself to just be\u2014me.\nI would love to see more milspouses get to know what they truly want for themselves and who they really are. Sadly, as we keep putting out fires and dealing with the daily demands, we base our worth more on those things we do and the roles we play than what makes us who we are (personality, skills, temperament).\nK.T. says\nThis is a big problem with us, though luckily it\u2019s just my husband and me so there are no kids to factor in. I just earned my Ph.D. in Genetics. He\u2019s stationed at Fort Campbell, which has no real life science industry nearby. Although Nashville has a large research university, I\u2019ve been trying to find a job there to no avail. I\u2019ve gotten a part-time retail job to help make ends meet, but this is unsatisfying for me at both a professional and financial level (not to mention I cannot repay my student loans with the income from this job). It\u2019s becoming clearer to us that we will not be able to live together if I\u2019m to begin a career in my field, and every month I\u2019m not working in a lab makes it that much more difficult to find a job. At this point, we\u2019re hoping I can find something within 4-5 hours\u2019 drive so we can at least spend our weekends together.\nK.T., first of all, congratulations on your doctorate! I know that research is at your heart\u2019s goal, but have you looked into teaching via the Education Office/Center on base? I taught Community College for awhile\u2026night classes brought in way better income than working retail. Many installations host distance learning classes from several 4 year universities that could create an in for you and keep you somewhat current.\nOr online classes? So many universities offer online programs now, that could be a great option that you could do from anywhere.\nlifeisanadventure says\nThis is a great discussion. Personally at this stage I have given up on my career in the sense that I\u2019m not working right now or even pursuing it. And I have definitely been known to complain that my career never really got off the ground because I met my husband while I was still completing my university education. And I often get frustrated at not being in the paid workforce and experiencing the satisfaction which comes with it if you are lucky enough to do what you love. But it is too easy and simplistic just to say that my career isn\u2019t where I thought it would be because of the military. I\u2019m twenty years down the track and who knows what life would have thrown at me in other circumstances. We all make our decisions in the circumstances we find ourselves in. Whilst military life has certainly provided some challenges in regard to staying in the paid workforce it is also provided me with many other opportunities for personal growth and satisfaction. (I know my military husband is very jealous of the time I spent pursuing a Masters in a brand new (to me) field whilst staying at home with my two boys.) I agree with Stacy\u2019s comments about defining success according to a role. I am stepping back and looking at the big picture of all the roles I play or have played and concluding that overall I\u2019ve been successful. I think it is really important to stop and take stock of your life every now and then and make sure you\u2019re moving forward the way you want to but I don\u2019t think that success in life necessarily equates with having your dream job.\nCan Temp Work be a Permanent Career?

        "raw_content": "Monarch butterflies making a comeback in NJ \u2014 What you can do to help\nCaryn Shinske, NJ DEP\nThanks to the efforts by New Jersey conservationists, the beautiful monarch butterfly is making a comeback.\nAfter nearly becoming extinct, the monarch is doing better, according to Bergen County Audubon Society President Don Torino.\n\"The population in the northeast, especially has been doing very well,\" he said.\n\"It is certainly one of the most famous butterflies, but it is also been really threatened and headed towards the endangered species list over recent years. Their numbers have dropped 90 percent over the last 20 years and we were really in danger of losing the butterfly for good.\"\nHe says the monarch butterfly uses milkweed to fend off predators. The plant is toxic. When the monarch caterpillar eats it, its orange color means \"do not eat me, I taste bad.\" People who plant milkweed help the butterfly.\n\"This is a great example of what the average person can do. And I think it is a combination of local governments and even the federal government planting and preserving more milkweed. But especially in our area, really had a lot to do with the average person in local communities and in backyards planting more milkweed and making places for the monarch butterflies.\"\nThe society has a program called, \"Milkweed in Every Yard\" to help the monarch.\nYou can also get more information about the monarch butterfly at www.monarchwatch.org.\nFiled Under: Animals, Bergen County, Bergen County Audubon Society",

        "title": "Victor Cruz FB",
        "raw_content": "Victor Cruz was born November 11, 1986 in Paterson and raised by his mother, Blanca Cruz. As a boy, Victor pursued his two passions, football and dancing. His grandmother taught him how to salsa when he was 11, and he pays tribute to her now whenever he scores a touchdown. Victor was a football and basketball star at PS 21 in Paterson, and later at Paterson Catholic High School. Victor played receiver and defensive back for Benjie Wimberly\u2019s Cougars and was All-State as a senior in 2003. He scored 19 touchdowns for the team that went undefeated on its way to the NJ Parochial School championship.\nAfter accepting a scholarship from UMass, Victor spent a year Bridgton Academy in Maine to get his academics college-ready. The Minutemen red-shirted him as a freshman, so his first varsity season was 2006. He did not crack the starting lineup until 2008, as a junior. That year\u2014and also 2009\u2014Victor was All-Colonial Conference, reeling in 130 passes in two season for 1,932 yards and 10 touchdowns.\nConsidered too small to play in the NFL, Victor went undrafted in 2010. He was shocked and amazed when the Giants offered him a tryout. The team was loaded at the wide receiver position, but he showed just enough to grab the last spot on the depth charts and make the opening-day roster. Victor played little as a rookie, due mostly to a hamstring injury. The Giants were able to stash him away on injured reserved.\nDuring the 2011 lockout, Victor received a call from Eli Manning inviting him to unofficial workouts he was arranging. The two developed a chemistry together. With Steve Smith signing with the Eagles and Domenik Hixon and Mario Manningham sidelined by early-season injuries, Victor found himself in the starting lineup opposite Hakeem Nicks. He scored a pair of touchdowns in Week 3 against Philadelphia, including a sensational 74-yard score. A clutch catch a week later helped Big Blue upend the Cardinals.\nSoon Giants fans were screaming CROOOOZ every time he caught a pass. With two games to go and the team\u2019s record at 7\u20137, Victor made the most important play of his young career against the Jets. He caught a pass from Manning on the 11 yard line and went the length of the field to complete a 99-yard touchdown play. The catch and run turned the game around and probably turned the Giants\u2019 season around, as they made the playoffs and went on to win the Super Bowl. Victor caught 82 passes for 1,536 yards and 9 touchdowns during the regular season. he had 21 more catches and another touchdown in postseason play.\nVictor picked up right where he left off in 2012, surpassing the 1,000-yard mark again and ranking in the Top 10 in the NFL in receptions and touchdown catches. In 2013, Victor missed two games because of a sore foot, but still caught 73 passes . He fell two yards short of his third 1,000-yard season.\nIn 2014, Victor suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Eagles in Week 6. Fortunately for the Giants, rookie Odell Beckham Jr. stepped up and became Eli Manning\u2019s prime target. With Victor on the mend, the team went into 2015 hoping to have an awesome one-two receiving punch. Unfortunately, calf injury kept Victor off the field and, after three months of rehab, the Giants opted for season-ending surgery.\nVictor reaggravated the calf injury in training camp during the summer of 2015 and was unable to get back on the field until 2016. On Opening Day, he caught the game-winning touchdown pass against the Cowboys\u2014finishing off the score with an especially vigorous version of his trademark celebratory dance. The NFL later fined him for excessive celebrating.\nVictor managed to stay healthy most of the season, appearing in 15 games and catching 39 passes.. The Giants made the playoffs, and Victor caught one pass in a loss to the Packers. It would be his final reception as a Giant. The organization released him after the season and he signed with the Cleveland Browns, where fans hope he can team with fellow newcomer Kenny Britt to provide a powerful one-two pass-catching punch.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cLA PLAZA ES NUESTRA\u201d (The square is ours)- A Brilliant new mural from Escif \u2013 Mural de la Salut, Sant Feliu de Llobregat (Barcelona, Spain).\n\u201cIn May of 1977, the residents of the neighborhood of La Salud managed to stop the construction of a gas station. The walls tell that it was one dawn, while the city was still sleeping, that some brave men decided to push the concrete mixer into the hole where they were going to build foundations. They covered the hole with dirt and planted a tree. Legend tells that if a tree is planted in a busy lot, nobody will be able to remove it. And that is how they grounded the square that still remains today theirs. Of the neighbours of Sant Feliu. \u201c(Escif)\nThis is the description given by Escif, the artist chosen to transfer the historic memory, present time and hopes of a town that, 40 years ago and under Franco\u2019s regime, started a fight to have a decent and worthy neighbourhood, to gain ownership of their square.\nEscif, artist and activist who never gives any interviews, lived with high intensity this year-long participatory project. What initially was a proposal to create a mural turned into a work to transfer historic memory and, above all, a work of deep love. Because, at the end of the day, creating art means creating life. And at that place, there were many lives to remember, many stories to be told, many stories yet to come.\nThat\u2019s the legacy of a surprising mural that\u2019s full of details and anecdotes, and that the neighbours have already taken hold of. \u201cLa plaza es m\u00eda\u201d [The square is mine,] \u201cYo-Tu\u201d [Me-You,] \u201cFue \u00e9l\u201d [It was him,] \u201cDEP hormigonera\u201d [RIP concrete mixer] (an ironic reminder of the time when the neighbours threw the concrete mixer into a hole, where it still remains buried,) \u201cNo callarem\u201d [We won\u2019t remain silent]\u2026 The wall tells, narrates, and remembers many lives and stories that go back to 40 years ago, many conversations in this square conquered by the neighbours, many yearnings and dreams, many fights that are yet to come.\nThis new work by Escif comes a few weeks after having painted a fa\u00e7ade of the famous Palais de Tokyo (Paris), in memory of the events of May 1968, with sentences such as \u201cBe young and remain silent.\u201d\nIn Sant Feliu nobody remained silent.\nToday, in a time of so much repression, Escif reminds us that we have to fight, always.\n\u201cLa pared es nuestra\u201d [The Wall is Ours] is a retaining wall that rescues the voices of those who are gone, that keeps the voice of those who remain, and that suggests the voice of those who are yet to come. An inclusive wall made by and for the neighbours. A wall that can be heard, that contains the sounds of the neighbourhood, of its history, and of its inhabitants. A wall that can be read, and that has as many readings as visitors who come to contemplate it.\u201d (Escif)\n2 thoughts on \u201c\u201cLA PLAZA ES NUESTRA\u201d \u2013 Escif for Controno Urbano\u201d\nInteresting backstory to the piece which is magnificent\u2026and very big.\nHaha yeah it is enormous! very difficult to photograph from the ground.",

        "raw_content": "Biola Professors Share Expertise in New Book on Special Education Published in Arabic\nThe School of Education has partnered with SKILD: Smart Kids with Individual Learning Differences in Lebanon\nGeneral Secretary for the Association of Evangelical Schools in Lebanon, Nabil Costa, was on campus November 9, 2018 to discuss the state of special education in the Middle East with Biola University\u2019s School of Education and celebrate the recently published book Inclusive Classrooms for Community Flourishing. Costa, who is also the Chief Executive Officer for the Lebanese Society for Educational & Social Development, has partnered with the School of Education for more than five years on different initiatives to encourage inclusive classrooms in the Middle East.\nCosta, the president of SKILD: Smart Kids with Individual Learning Differences, saw a need for a book containing different strategies to aid students with learning differences. He called on June Hetzel, dean of the School of Education at Biola University, to lead the way.\nHetzel co-edited the book with Robin LaBarbera, professor and director of special education at Biola, which was recently published by SKILD.\n\u201cThe Lord planted in my heart an urgency about this project because there are few resources in the Middle East to guide teachers in the service of special needs children, and so I made a commitment to the project on a very short timeline due to the Lord's prompting,\u201d said Hetzel.\nThe book, which was written for a general educational context and was translated from English to Arabic, is currently being distributed in schools in both Lebanon and Jordan. They have printed 2,000 copies thus far, and most of them have already been dispersed.\n\u201cWe wanted strategies to help our schools \u2014 public and private \u2014 so Dr. June invited different specialists in different specialties, and everyone wrote a chapter on [their] specialty,\u201d said Costa.\nTwelve Biola faculty members contributed to the book based on their areas of expertise, in addition to Hetzel and LaBarbera, professor and assistant dean of the School of Education. The following professors contributed to the book: associate professor and director of elementary education, Carolyn Bishop; professor and director of secondary education, Dennis Eastman; professors of education, Tim StraJenna Canillas, Denise Reid and Mickie Wong-Lo; professors of communication sciences and disorders, Tonya Dantuma and Lori Newport; assistant director of nursing, Julie Neiggemann; and director of nursing, Rachel Van Niekerk. The book also included contributions from Biola students and professors from California State University, Fullerton; California Polytechnic State University, Pomona; and Haigazian University in Beirut, Lebanon. Costa penned the preface where he explains the intentions of the book \u2014 to show respect for students with learning differences and and to guide instructors and parents.\nCosta explains that the Biola team had a good understanding of what to include in the book because members had travelled to Lebanon at least five or six times before. The connection between Biola and SKILD will continue and, as Costa hopes, grow. He notes the prominence of research in the U.S. and that the Biola team regularly shares recent discoveries made in the field with them. Biola faculty will soon travel east to attend a upcoming conference in Beirut focusing on education and how to work with students with learning differences.\nWritten by Monica Kochan, iBiola reporter.

The resolution asserts that the \"gruesome happenings in Bihar and Noakhali and the other parts of the country were the results of the Fascist mentality of the Congress and states that this aggressive attitude of the Congress has forced the Majlis-e-Ahrar to revise its policy of co-operation with the Congress.\" The Working Committee has also appealed to come together in a joint effort to achieve the emancipation of the Indian Muslims.\nBy another resolution, the Working Committee opposed the partition of the Punjab as proposed by the Congress. A sub-committee was also set up to contact other Muslim political organisations and formulate a common programme of action.\nLabels: Ahrar",

        "raw_content": "Thank you for your answers. I hope that these questions have caused you to think about how you would respond. I pray that you will have many opportunities to share your faith with others as a result of this training.\nIf you have enjoyed this course, I encourage you to check out Evangelism Unprocessed. There is also a free Bible study based on the book that is available at our sister site Church of Petra.\nThe following are sample answers. In many cases there are numerous \u201cright\u201d responses to the questions.\nQuestion 1) How can you say that your religion is the only way to heaven? Isn\u2019t that a little arrogant?\nI believe in the Bible and the Bible says there is only one way to heaven. John 14:6 says, \u201cJesus answered, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.\u201d\nIn comparison to other religions, Christianity is the only one that offers a solution for sin. Other religions have a lot of rules that no one can follow perfectly. Then they offer some sort of penance that may or may not be enough to make their god happy. Christianity is the only religion that offers a definitive answer for sin \u2013 Jesus dying on the cross to take care of our sins once and for all.\nQuestion 2) Well, the Bible may say that, but it\u2019s just a book written by man. How is it any different from the Koran, the teachings of Confucius or the Code of Hammurabi?\nThe Bible was written over a period of 1500 years. Parts were written from prison while other parts were written from palaces. It was written by farmers, fishermen, and scholars. It was written in three different languages (Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek). It claims to be divinely inspired. Despite its age, it is still the best selling book in the world. What other book can make any of those claims?\n(Note we may not always know what other people are referencing but we should still know about the Bible. For reference sake, the Code Hammurabi is possibly the oldest existing written moral code, dating before the Ten Commandments, nearly back to the lifetime of Abraham. Because of similarities some claim that Moses simply borrowed from Hammurabi just as others claim that Christ just copied eastern teachings.)\nQuestion 3) Of course I believe in Jesus, he was a good man. That other stuff about miracles and rising from the dead is a bit preposterous though. You don\u2019t believe any of that nonsense do you?\nJesus was either a liar, a lunatic, or Lord as he claimed to be. Jesus made some very bold statements- claiming that he would rise from the dead and implying that he was God. (It was for these very statements that the teachers of the law had him crucified.) If these statements were false and he knew so, then he was a liar. If he had no idea what he was talking about, he was a lunatic. Neither of these are what one would normally consider a good man.\nAs far as miracles are concerned, the gospels are written by witnesses of Jesus miracles. These were either foolish and deceived people or people who actually witnessed miracles and felt that they should tell others.\nIf Jesus did not rise from the dead, he was a great actor. He had people so convinced that he rose from the dead that his disciples sacrificed their lives and died in brutal ways proclaiming that Jesus did in fact rise from the dead.\nQuestion 4) How can you believe the Bible when there are so many things that can\u2019t be proven. Where is the archaeological evidence of all those kingdoms the Bible talks about?\nThere is actually a lot of scientific evidence concerning Biblical kingdoms. There have been numerous cities discovered to have been destroyed at just the same time Joshua led the Israelites into the promised land. Inscriptions have been found with King David\u2019s name. A cylinder has been discovered listing the tribute Hezekiah gave to the Assyrians.\nIn the New Testament discoveries have been found to back up Paul\u2019s shipwreck on the island of Malta. Paul speaks of \u201cthe first man of the island.\u201d After much scoffing, an inscription was discovered with the name. Not only this, but the name was only used during the first century proving that the book had to have been written during that time and providing authenticity to the story.\nQuestion 5) The Bible may have some good principles to live by, but it can\u2019t be all true. It isn\u2019t scientifically possible for the the sun to stand still, donkeys to talk, people to live 900 years. Those are just children\u2019s stories and prove that the Bible isn\u2019t accurate.\nOf course we can\u2019t prove any of these things to be true and they need to be taken on faith. However, anyone who believes in God should believe that God has the power to do all of these things. If God is the creator of the universe as the Bible says he is, he would have power to do whatever he wants with it, even if it means something absurd like the sun standing still or causing a donkey to talk.\nQuestion 6) I go to church every Sunday! What do you mean I\u2019m not a Christian?\nThe Bible says nothing about church attendance being a requirement for salvation. Just because you go to church every Sunday doesn\u2019t mean that you have trusted Jesus as your savior and have asked him to forgive you of your sins.",

        "title": "Gold Article Full Story",
        "raw_content": "5 Days of Trading & Gold Drops 4.7%\n(December 16, 2005) All good parabolic rises in prices must come to a peak, and gold prices reached that level last Friday. This week, a market that could only go up, reversed itself and could only go down. Technically, the bloom is, at least for now, off the rose.\nIt\u2019s no surprise that things today cost more than ever. From base metals (copper, zinc, lead) to exotics such as rhodium and titanium, to the whole precious metals complex (gold, silver, and platinum), it simply takes an increasing amount of this limitless creation known as the world\u2019s currencies to purchase the absolutely limited supply of real stuff in the world.\nGold, lately, has become subject to those same broad increases in prices that we\u2019ve seen over the past few years. What doesn\u2019t cost more today than it used to? Real estate, energy, services, and raw materials from steel to plywood have seen huge jumps in prices.\nGold started rising in 2001, a time when inflation seemed to be an obsolete worry. \"Deflation\u201d was then the economic bogeyman everyone was concerned about. As we have learned since then, gold once again was proving itself to be a reliable leading indicator of future inflation.\nWhich makes us think that gold\u2019s rally over the past few weeks (up about $70 since November 1st) portends some really serious fiat devaluation coming our way.\nA fellow we know who has been around the block a few times when it comes to commodities markets said today about gold that the \u201cthe horse is out of the barn.\u201d In his view, gold prices are now mimicking the recent movement in oil prices, and will fairly quickly trace the same percentage trajectory as did oil, with an anticipated peak of around US$875.\nSo, let\u2019s imagine that the shiny yellow stuff is \u201cworth\u201d about US$1200. That means the $875 figure may just be an intermediate pause, or a temporary spike. But after a pullback from such a level, envision a whole new group of investors climbing aboard, and then taking gold prices inevitably past its \u201cworth\u201d level of $1200 and from there to some unreasonably high price that today we dare not name.\nIt is safe to project that gold prices will overshoot on the upside, and eventually fall, probably dramatically. Finally, after a settling period, with prices see-sawing back and forth for a while, gold will find its new \u201cworth\u201d level (say, the aforementioned US$1200).\nBarring a total currency collapse, gold would then become as stable as it was during the 1990s. But that stability will come with gold prices somewhere in the four-figure neighborhood.\nDavid Davis, one of Johannesburg\u2019s top-rated gold analysts wrote an article on \u201cThe Future of Gold\u201d in June of 2005 (back when gold was some $100 cheaper than today), and summed up the fundamentals of gold accordingly:\n\u201cOur study indicates that gold supply is inexorably falling behind demand as a diminishing number of new reserves fail to compensate for dying mines. This has been happening for some time but, until now, the effect has been masked by Central Bank sales and producer hedging. However, this will soon come to an end, and that will be the turnaround when the supply-demand imbalance heats up the gold price.\u201d\nDavis pointed out the folly of mining firms hedging the prices received for their product, when there is no way they can hedge their expenses. \u201cThe future cycle of events is likely to be different. Capital costs, working costs, labour costs, royalties and environmental costs are undergoing an upward quantum change.\u201d\nTo sum up: It\u2019s increasingly expensive to get gold out of the ground. The era of central bank net sales is ending. World demand for gold is increasing, especially in the booming economies of China and India. The problem is, there is only so much gold in the world.\nHow much? All the gold ever mined in the world is variously estimated as between 130,000 and 150,000 tons. That is less than the amount of steel that can be turned out by the US in a single day.",

        "raw_content": "*NEWS BULLETIN*\nThis year\u2019s Annual General Meeting (AGM) and executive board elections will be held on Saturday, April 28, 2018, at the Canadian Motor Hotel, downstairs, located at 410 Pim Street, Sault Ste Marie. All members are welcomed and encouraged to take an active part in making OntORA the instrument that will finally open pristine forests and numerous lakes accessible to ordinary taxpaying Ontarians.\nONTARIO ELECTION AND EQUAL PUBLIC ACCESS:\nOntarians go to the polls on June 7th to elect a new provincial government. The latest polls show a major disapproval rating for the governing Liberals, which, under a new government, may offer hope for a new ideology and people-centered policies in a revitalized Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF). The MNRF has been criticized for its outdated and discriminatory policies on public access to our lakes and forests, now virtually reserved for paying tourists while excluding ordinary non-tourist Ontarians. Please ask the candidates in your riding where they stand on the issue of equal public access to our own natural resources heritage, and let them know how you feel about the issue.\nOLD GOULAIS BAY ROAD ACCESS:\nAs a result of a concerted effort by President John Kallio and a great deal of dialogue and correspondence with City of Sault Ste. Marie and Ministry officials (MTO). The posting of signs by the local snowmobile club that you require a trail pass to snowmobile on the city owned portion of the Old Goulais Bay Road has been cleared up. The signs are down and snowmobilers are able to access the Old Goulais Bay Road. The rest of the road is under the MTO control and there never was an issue with the public accessing the Old Goulais Bay Road with snowmobiles for that portion of the road. Snowmobilers without a trail pass must stay on the Old Goulais Bay Road at all times.\nOntORA AND OFAH:\nAs most members are aware, OntORA and the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) have had their share of differences, especially over the issue of equal public access. The reality is that both organizations represent the outdoors community and both groups realize that the gulf that has been created between them can only help those who wish to limit the rights and privileges of outdoors people in Ontario. With that in mind, OntORA President John Kallio and OFAH Executive Director Angelo Lombardo have reached out to each other and agreed that there would be an advantage to take on the government and the MNRF as a united front. Both leaders have agreed to continue discussions to see if areas of agreement can be reached.\nWHITMAN DAM ROAD REPAIRS: REQUEST FOR FUNDS:\nThe Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has considered the old Whitman Dam Road in the Searchmont area, to be a logging road and has stopped any maintenance work since the forest contractors have left the area. However, after a large group of campers and stakeholders long raised serious concerns about its condition, and the lack of access to various destinations via that road, the MTO has agreed to help with fund-raising for road repairs and maintenance.\nAccording to Todd Slotegraff, a property owner at Cowie Lake, a road committee was formed at a March 12th meeting attended by NDP MPP Michael Mantha. Slotegraff has also thanked OntORA for its interest in helping out and has indicated an interest in his committee building a community partnership with OntORA. Please give generously. All donations are welcomed:\nE-transfer to: whitmandamrd@gmail.com Cheques can be mailed to: Whitman Dam Road Committee, P.O. Box 22010 McNabb P.O., Sault Ste Marie, ON., P6B 6H4.\nCLIVE HENDERSON & MNRF TRESPASS CASE:\nAs earlier reported, a property owner on St. Joseph\u2019s Island had accused two MNRF CO\u2019s of trespassing on his property without permission, and with no apparent reason to believe that any offences had been, or were being, committed. After a series of different court appearances, retained lawyers and one who became not available, finally the case was heard recently before Deputy Judge Ken Lawson in the Motions Court of the Superior Court of Justice. Either party may then appeal the Motion Court decision rendered by this Judge, which would then proceed to Small Claims Court. As per the usual expected court decisions whenever the MNRF is involved, the Judge found that the Conservation Officers were within their lawful right to enter Mr. Henderson\u2019s property without permission or without any reasonable doubt of offences being committed. However he also found that the fact that one CO took photographs of Mr. Henderson\u2019s \u201cNo Trespassing\u201d signs, that he was not within his legal right and therefore this action constituted \u201ctrespassing\u201d. The Judge asked for submissions from both parties as to costs and damages, and will take the matter under advisement.\nIF YOU HAVE NOT YET RENEWED YOUR MEMBERSHIP IN OntORA, IT\u2019S NOT TOO LATE \u2013 DO IT NOW!\nTELL YOUR OUTDOORS BUDDIES THAT WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET TO MAKE OUR GREAT EXPANSE OF PRISTINE FORESTS AND ABUNDANT LAKES OPEN AGAIN TO ORDINARY, TAX-PAYING ONTARIANS.\nJohn Kallio.\nmichel roy April 14, 2018, 9:35 am\nI lifetime member of the ofah looks upon the mergerwith a optimistic attitude only the future will tell us if the move beneficial for the outdoor enthousiasts.

        "raw_content": "How to turn a family shop into a $1.8 billion multinational\nThe Tolaram group is building a port in Nigeria, producing paper in Estonia, running a bank in Indonesia and supplying power in India. It has food production and distribution operations across Africa and sells to more than 75 countries\nKlaus Wille & Pei Yi Mak, Bloomberg\nThe Tolaram group is ultimately owned by Mohan Vaswani, his two sons, three nephews, a cousin and the foundation.\nSingapore/Hong Kong: Mohan Vaswani\u2019s father, who started selling textiles in 1948 from a shop the size of a shipping container in a small town in Indonesia, once told him \u201cOne day you will operate across the world.\u201d\nEighty-year-old Vaswani now oversees Tolaram Group, a Singapore-headquartered company with an estimated value of $1.8 billion. Tolaram is building a port in Nigeria, producing paper in Estonia, running a bank in Indonesia and supplying power in India. It has food production and distribution operations across Africa and sells to more than 75 countries. Now, the company is expanding into digital services and plans to add a hedge fund to its wealth operations.\nHow the company got here is based on those 70-year-old roots, forging a group that still feels more like a collection of startups and separate businesses than a multinational conglomerate. One of its latest ventures, an online loan business called Tunaiku, operates almost as a distinct venture within the group\u2019s PT Bank Amar Indonesia.\nAnd while the family controls the firm, day-to-day operations at all 18 business units are run by professional outside managers, who are encouraged to try new ideas.\n\u201cWe are not afraid,\u201d Vaswani said. \u201cWhen we see opportunities, we are ready to take the risk.\u201d\nDuring its seven decades, Tolaram has ventured into about 100 businesses, according to Vaswani\u2019s nephew Sajen Aswani, who is chief executive officer of the group. About 75 percent failed, but the one in four that succeeded made up for it, he said.\n\u201cThe Tolaram expansion over the past decades has been one of extreme growth, said Oriano Lizza, a strategist at CMC Markets Plc. He said the backbone of the company\u2019s success was diversification and the element of risk taken to expand into many countries and businesses.\nVaswani ascribes the group\u2019s culture to the fact that the family are originally from Sindh, a province in today\u2019s Pakistan that has long had a reputation for producing entrepreneurs at home and overseas.\n\u201cThe Sindhi are a business community,\u201d Vaswani says. \u201cThey are entrepreneurs. Even if they only have a small amount of money, they start their own business because they don\u2019t like to work for anyone else.\u201d\nAs early as the end of the 18th century, family members had come to Indonesia, a popular destination at the time for Sindhi expats. Having worked in Indonesia before, Vaswani\u2019s father, a Hindu, joined them after the partition of India in 1947 to escape the religious violence that had engulfed the region, setting up his shop in Malang on the island of Java.\nVaswani joined his father\u2019s textile business when he was 10, and took over the firm at the age of 19. He expanded from distribution to manufacturing and established plants abroad -- the US, the U.K., Germany, South Africa and the Baltic states.\n\u201cIn my family, you got handed over the reins at an early age. Unlike today, there was no need to study first.\u201d\nAs an example of how he pushed the group into new businesses, he tells how he set up the first major overseas operation in the 1970s.\n\u201cI told a friend of mine who has business in Africa that I wanted to diversify out of Indonesia. And he said \u2018Why don\u2019t you come to Africa?\u2019\u201d\n\u201cWell, I don\u2019t know anything about Africa,\u201d Vaswani replied.\nHis friend told him to come for a two-week holiday to see. Vaswani traveled to Nigeria, then Ghana and Ivory Coast. A month later, he started a business in Lagos in Nigeria, which had the highest per-capita income of the three and where people were prepared to pay upfront, lowering the risk.\nIn his office in a high-rise industrial block on the outskirts of Singapore, Vaswani looks at pictures of his family \u2014 from one decorated with a Hindu flower chain of grandfather Seth Tolaram, after whom the company is named, down to his nine grandchildren.\nVaswani didn\u2019t follow the typical Asian family business model, where operations, wealth and family members are interwoven and all controlled by a patriarch.\n\u201cWe decided that family members stay at the shareholder level,\u201d says Vaswani. \u201cIf a professional hired from the outside makes a mistake, you can sanction the person. With family members, it\u2019s more sensitive.\u201d\nThat may be one reason the company has avoided the fate of many family businesses that fail once the enterprise is handed over to the second or third generation.\n\u201cA concern could be one of over capitalization and a lack of expertise within different business units, although the longevity and sustainability of the group would argue against that,\u201d said Lizza, at CMC Markets.\nOverall control remains in family hands. Tolaram\u2019s business unit, comprising all commercial operations, is headed by Aswani, the CEO, who studied economics at the University of London. The Ishk Tolaram Foundation, a philanthropy unit established in 2016, is headed by his daughter Sumitra Aswani, a trained doctor. The family office, however, is managed by a team run by Manish Tibrewal, who joined in 2004 as a finance controller in Tolaram\u2019s noodles production unit in Nigeria.\nThe group is ultimately owned by Mohan Vaswani, his two sons, three nephews, a cousin and the foundation.\nAs chairman, Vaswani is no longer involved in day-to-day operations, but he comes to the office each day and is consulted on major decisions made in the family office and the business.\nHis passions are philanthropy and gardening \u2014 when he travels to Tolaram\u2019s operations, he makes sure every factory has a well-kept garden.\nHe also oversees the expansion of the group, which now has more than 10,000 employees, compared with about 1,000 in the 1970s, when the company focused on Indonesia. He says he prefers the group to grow organically rather than through acquisitions, hiring young people and grooming them to the company culture.\nThe company is currently expanding in parts of Africa and Indonesia, says Aswani the CEO, with a focus on consumer-related and digital services. Tunaiku has clocked up more than 1 trillion rupiah ($65.5 million) in small loans to individuals, company data show.\nBinding it all together is a strong family loyalty that has seen the generations move from one country to another and start businesses around the world.\n\u201cIn our DNA, our allegiance is to the Tolaram family,\u2019 Aswani says.\nTopics: Tolaram group.

More\nThis new book volume, simply titled Neurotrauma, aims to bring together the latest clinical practice and research in the field of two forms of trauma to the central nervous system: namely, traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). Nationally, more 1.9 million Americans sustain a TBI annually. In parallel, there are an estimated 12,000 new cases of SCI in the United States annually. In addition, approximately 1.2 million people live with paralysis due to SCI. In recent years, dramatic advancements in the field have resulted in much improved outcomes for patients and higher standards of care. This volume brings together the latest research and clinical practice in the treatment of neurotrauma in a comprehensive but easy-to-follow format. Our target readership is intentionally broad. It includes clinicians who are involved in caring for TBI in the emergency room, hospital, or neurointensive care unit or during patient rehabilitation; clinical research professionals; research nurses; and nonclinical academic researchers, such as research professors, research scientists, medical students, graduate students, and nurse specialists, as well as biomedical industry R&D scientists and clinical associates. As editor of this volume, I want all readers to find a chapter or section on almost all aspects related to TBI or SCI. I also hope that they will encounter some areas they might be already familiar with. Yet, at the same time, I hope that they will also discover or rediscover other less familiar areas in neurotrauma that they have always wanted to learn more about. Last, I want to make this volume as layman-like and as easy to follow as possible so that it can also serve as a resource book for TBI or SCI patients or caregivers who want to better educate themselves about these conditions.Less\nPsychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience: A Primer\nCharles Zorumski and Eugene Rubin\nNeuroscience, Psychiatry, Clinical Neuroscience\nThis resource examines recent developments in the field of network neuroscience and their potential impact on clinical psychiatry, including the way that psychiatrists are trained and ... More\nThis resource examines recent developments in the field of network neuroscience and their potential impact on clinical psychiatry, including the way that psychiatrists are trained and interact with other medical specialties and mental health professionals. It discusses how research in neuroscience is revolutionizing how we think about psychiatric diagnosis and treatment, and how understanding how the neural networks that underlie these mental functions become dysfunctional holds great promise for devising innovative approaches to diagnosis and treatment. It covers recent advances in human functional neuroimaging, which is being used to characterize the activity of specific brain circuits at rest and during the performance of specific tasks, as well as advances in clinical neuroscience that are being coupled with expanding knowledge about genetics and cellular and synaptic neuroscience. Taken together, these advancements offer the hope of much more mechanism-based approaches to treatment in the future.

        "raw_content": "Home The Spark Choosing the right club for you\nChoosing the right club for you\nChoosing the right club for your style\nHello again, everyone. Sorry for the long hiatus, but the transition across the country for me has proven to be more than a little time consuming. My move will be the basis for the next 3 or 4 articles and hopefully, you can identify with some of the lessons I\u2019ve learned along the way. Now before I dive into the heart of the matter, I have to put this out there: not everyone has the ability to pick and choose where they work. Sometimes you just need a gig and you\u2019ll take whatever you can get to put food on the table. We\u2019ve all had those gigs that have been about just making it to next week. I\u2019ve been there, we\u2019ve all been there. Nevertheless, with hard work and dedication a PANDA can secure the opportunity to make the right choices for the next chapter of his/her career. It can be difficult to weigh the factors in making a big move in your life, so I thought I would put my words on paper as to how I made my decisions along the way.\nWhat\u2019s the first step I recommend in choosing your next job? I believe that you must define what makes you happy if you\u2019re going to make a serious career choice. For example, you must determine exactly who you are as an emcee. Personally, I\u2019m a joker and a goofball. I like to interact with the staff, crowd, entertainers, because I want my guests to feel like they are a part of the party I\u2019m throwing. When it comes to music, my tastes are all over the place but my personal choice for party music is House and Rock music. When it comes to format, a solid structure is very important to me. I come from the MJP line of thinking so it\u2019s very hard for me to the break habit of what I know is right in my mind. There are just certain things to which I\u2019m accustomed. My personal list of what I look for in a new gig goes on and on but this is just an example of who I am as a jock and what makes me happy in the work place. It\u2019s a guideline for me to follow so that I will be happy and therefore, prosperous in my environment.\nAs someone who has worked in the best and worst of conditions, I can tell you that I would trade a little less cash for more joy at my workplace. Somewhere out there is a gig that will make you excited to wake up in the morning and look forward to working that night. It will challenge you in all the right ways, improve your skills, and ultimately make you a more, well-rounded jock. The nights will fly by, as you feel rewarded shift after shift in ways you never expected. Nothing beats making some of the best friends of your life and having experiences that are worth writing about- in my case, literally. More than likely, you will have to go through some tough times to get to this point. Small cities, dive bars, day shifts- these situations can be torturous. However, they can also be valuable life lessons and time well-spent if you can learn from every failure and grow from every experience. I firmly believe that the only way you will find the club that fits is if you follow my favorite metaphysical law: the law of attraction, which simply states that \u201clike attracts like\u201d. If you focus and believe in yourself and your dreams, you can get what you want out of life. Take your dream life, write down the steps you need to take to make it a reality, then start acting out the steps to bring it to life!\nThe decision to uproot from the home I had built for a new job opportunity is one of the most serious choices I made in my life. But I\u2019ll tell you this: the risk was worth the reward when I found the right team. It was far from easy. My first move was to Myrtle Beach. In the beginning, it was the land of milk and honey. To me, a lucrative DJinng gig was going to be the stepping to stone to the life I wanted and that was my first big opportunity. I\u2019ve always had big ambitions, so I set out to work at the best club in town. I seized the opportunity at Thee Dollhouse when it arrived. I soaked up every minute of the training. With proper training came a new desire: I wanted a prime time gig in a major metropolitan city. I wanted to work for a company that would allow me to be myself. I also yearned for culture. Museums, concerts, varied martial arts disciplines, anything that I could do to expand my mind instead of going to a club every night. I searched in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and South Florida in hopes of finding that dream job. It wasn\u2019t until I had completely committed myself to leaving my current job that my dream job found me. I was drafting my resignation letter when I received a Facebook message. I had spoken to a friend about my interest in relocating to any major market with a great club, so when heard about this gig in Dallas, he decided to reach out to me. I was lucky enough to be chosen from the stable of jocks that applied and now I\u2019m having the time of my life. This is just my own story. I know many would say it was just dumb luck. You have to follow your own dream, develop your own plan to find the life you want. How will you create yours?\nIn the end, it all comes together when you find the team you fit with. It\u2019s not hard to see if you and your management are on the same page or not. Most people find it difficult to ask for what they want. I\u2019ve found that the only way to know if you\u2019re in the right place is to professionally ask exactly what is on your mind, otherwise you\u2019re just wasting their time as well as your own. You must have a certain level of agreement with your operator on philosophy, rules, and etiquette so that you can work well as a team together to produce healthy numbers and achieve goals. Rarely will you ever always see everything eye to eye with the people you work with, but you\u2019ll know when it\u2019s right. I knew from a phone call and a short sit down meeting with my newest GM that I\u2019d found the next guy I wanted to work with- keep searching and you\u2019ll find that home you\u2019re looking for. As always, thanks for reading.",

        "raw_content": "Petrolia woman injured in Queen Street fire out of hospital\nInvestigators from the Ontario Fire Marshal look through the front room of a home on Queen Street which was heavily damaged by fire.\nTerry May\u2019s years of firefighting came back in a flash and it likely saved a Petrolia woman\u2019s life.\nHis granddaughter, who was expected to come for a visit, burst through the door of his Queen Street home April 3, saying there were flames in the window of the neighbour\u2019s house.\nMay, who was a volunteer firefighter with the Oil Springs department for many years, ran down the street with his fianc\u00e9 following him, telling others to call 9-1-1. Noris Lawrence went to the neighbours to tell them they were in danger from the fire \u2013 the siding on their house was melting.\nWith the front in flames, May went around to the back and saw his neighbour, 65 year-old Cathy Charlton, lying on the floor of her kitchen. \u201cShe was laying on the kitchen floor near the side door, so I went in and grabbed her and pulled her out.\n\u201cShe was breathing\u2026 but she wasn\u2019t coherent.\u201d\n\u201cI think she was trying to get to the back door and the smoke overtook her. She had maybe been upstairs, I don\u2019t know\u2026 she fell in the kitchen on the floor so I think she was trying to get to the back door,\u201d said a still stunned May just moments after pulling the woman from the flames.\nParamedics took the still unidentified woman to the hospital and she was later transferred to a hospital in London to be treated for smoke inhalation and burns.\nCharlton is back in Petrolia after recovering \u201cquite well,\u201d according to Petrolia/North Enniskillen Deputy Chief Tim Williams. She was released from hospital just days after the incident.\nMay, who had been on the Oil Springs Fire Department for 25 years as the deputy chief and training officer, says the lessons he learned kicked in.\n\u201cI kinda knew what to do.\u201d\nPetrolia/North Enniskillen Chief Lawrence Swift says firefighters also found two of Charlton\u2019s cats upstairs hiding. A veterinarian is caring for them. The other cats \u2013 as many as six \u2013 are believed to have fled the blaze.\nSwift says the dining room/living room area of the home was heavily damaged, but much of the upper floor has only smoke damage. Firefighters did have to take down the ceiling as the flames made their way to the attic along the outside of the home.\nSwift says about $120,000 damage was done and he\u2019s not certain the home can be rebuilt.\nBy Thursday, officials from the Ontario Fire Marshal\u2019s office were on the scene, combing through the front room of the two-storey home trying to pinpoint the most likely cause. Investigators removed some items from the home, including some electrical items, for testing.",

The capitals of Tawi-Tawi are Bongao and Panglima Sugala. The province is the southernmost of the country, sharing sea borders with the Malaysian State of Sabah and the Indonesian North Kalimantan province. To the northeast lies the province ofSulu and to the west is Sabah in Malaysia. Tawi-Tawi also covers some islands in the Sulu Sea to the northwest, the Cagayan de Tawi-Tawi Islandand the Turtle Islands, just 20 kilometres (12 mi) away from Sabah.\nMap of the Philippines with Tawi-Tawi highlighted\nSibutu remained under Spanish rule until 1900.\nTawi-Tawi was previously part of the province of Sulu. On September 11, 1973, pursuant to Presidential Decree No. 302, the new province of Tawi-Tawi was officially created, separate from Sulu.The seat of the provincial government was established in Bongao.\nThe name of Tawi-Tawi is a projection of the Malay word \"jauh\" meaning \"far.\" Prehistoric travelers from the Asian mainland would repeat the word as \"jaui-jaui\" to mean \"far away\" because of the distance of the islands from the continent of Asia. The word \"Tawi-Tawi\" was picked up to later become the official name of the province.\nAgriculture, fishing, and agar-agar farming are the leading source of livelihood of the people of Tawi-Tawi, with quite a number engaged in the barter trade business. Copra is the top agricultural product, followed by root crops, fruits, and vegetables.\nSanga-Sanga Airport, the main airport of the province, is located in the municipality of Bongao.\nCebu Pacific began operating a daily flight from Zamboanga City to Tawi-Tawi Province on October 14, 2011, utilizing its 150-seater Airbus A319 aircraft. In 2012, Air Philippines also started operating flights to and from Zamboanga city.\nA sea connection to other parts of the Filipino archipelago as well as an international route to Semporna, Malaysia is available from Bongao.\nThe oldest mosque in the Philippines can be found in Tawi-Tawi, as well as ethnic groups Sama, Jama Mapun, Tausug and Badjaos.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Articles / Highest Paying Jobs in Pharmacy\nJobs for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians can vary in pay-range. Pharmacists and technicians can work in a variety of environments, some of which typically carry a higher pay rate than working at a retail pharmacy. In general, the best paid pharmacy jobs are those that require specialized knowledge in research or another unique field.\nAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, pharmacists average a little more than $110,000 annually (or $53.00 per hour). Pharmacists may work in a retail environment or in a hospital setting to earn the average median income in the U.S.\nFinding the highest paying pharmacy jobs may be less about the type of environment and more about the location. According to U.S. News, pharmacists make more money in certain cities. Their top 5 cities for pharmacy jobs are:\nModesto, Calif. \u2013 Salary: $142,840\nThe annual median wage of a pharmacist working in Modesto, Calif. is $142,840, which is $31,270 more than the average pay in the profession.\nSanta Cruz, Calif. \u2013 Salary: $142,750\nThe annual median wage of a pharmacist working in Santa Cruz, Calif. is $142,750, which is $31,180 more than the average pay in the profession.\nNapa, Calif. \u2013 Salary: $134,760\nThe annual median wage of a pharmacist working in Napa, Calif. is $134,760, which is $23,190 more than the average pay in the profession.\nDetroit, Mich. \u2013 Salary: $134,050\nThe annual median wage of a pharmacist working in Detroit, Mich. is $134,050, which is $22,480 more than the average pay in the profession.\nLaredo, Texas \u2013 Salary: $133,320\nThe annual median wage of a pharmacist working in Laredo, Texas is $133,320, which is $21,750 more than the average pay in the profession.\nSpecialty Pharmacist Pay Rates\nSome pharmacists who choose to open their own private pharmacy can make a higher-income than those in corporately owned pharmacies. However, there is overhead and employee costs to consider when running a pharmacy. Pharmacists working in a research lab and with nuclear medicine may earn more than those working in retail establishments. Research pharmacists can earn up to $150,000 annually.\nWorking as a pharmaceutical representative (a sales person for medications) is also a higher paying job within the pharmacy industry. The average income for a pharmaceutical sales rep rivals that of a retail pharmacist, but has more built-in growth.\nAnnual salary is largely based on sales volume, so some pharmacy representatives do very well when it comes to income. According to Salary.com, \u201cthe median expected salary for a typical Sales Representative (Pharmaceuticals) in the United States is $60,368.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "So you\u2019re either in a new country for vacation or on a long journey. While enjoying your stay, adjusting to your environment will make you feel more comfortable and accepted. Thai are used to foreigners, especially on the known islands in the south. Health is also an important item during your trip. It\u2019s good to know what you should and shouldn\u2019t do before you go to make sure you will feel good in Thailand. So what are the things you should and shouldn\u2019t do in Thailand?\n1. Respect the monarchy\nDue to tradition kings in Thailand are very respected. The Thai love their kings very much. Therefor it is wise to be careful about what you say about the king in presence of a Thai. When you go to the cinema, don\u2019t let it surprise you that before the movie starts, the national anthem is presented together with a picture of the king. During the national anthem everybody needs to stand up. In the morning and evening the national anthem can also be heard in parks and similar public areas and must be respected by all.\nIn Thailand, feet are considered dirty; In a lot of places the shoes need to be taken off and the feet kept on the ground. When entering a house or some shops, you need to take your shoes off. Even in some hotels you might be asked to take take your shoes off before going in.\nMind what you wear when you visit a Thai temple. For both sexes the shoulders and knees should be covered. The more formal your dress, the better it is. Learn what to wear in Thailand, including easy and daily clothes before you go.\n4. Always bargain\nDon\u2019t buy for the first mentioned prices. There is always a margin. However you shouldn\u2019t be too persistent. A little bargaining won\u2019t hurt anybody, as long as the buyer and seller are both happy.\n5. Take your vaccine shots\nComparing to countries such as India, Thailand has a good hygiene level. Therefor the risk of diseases trough normal ways is low, but there is a greater risk by sexual intercourse. Especially during rainy seasons, in some parts of Thailand, there is a risk of getting malaria. You can buy tablets for it depending on your travel duration, after consulting your doctor. If your going to spend time in rural areas or plan to do camping like activities, it is wise to get shots for rabies in case of bites from wild animals. Don\u2019t pet all dogs that look cute, they might bite.\n6. Don\u2019t take Durian and alcohol at the same time\nOn every corner in Thailand, you can find Durian. There are some things you need to know about this exotic fruit. Due to its remarkable smell, in some Asian countries, it is forbidden to take Durian in public transport or hotels. But the most important point is that it can be deadly to drink after or while eating Durian, as it makes it hard for the liver to handle the alcohol.\n7. Don\u2019t swim in waters with jellyfish\nEven though it\u2019s uncommon to get stung by jellyfish in Thailand, everybody who plans to swim or dive, especially in the south region, needs to be aware of jellyfish. If there is a warning sign, don\u2019t swim there. If you still want to swim, check for the nearest first aid point. A box jellyfish can kill you in 90 minutes. If you accidentally get in touch with a jellyfish, stay calm, don\u2019t move so that the venom doesn\u2019t spread and ask for help. On some beaches you can find emergency points where a bottle of vinegar is kept. Vinegar decreases the toxic effect.\n8. Don\u2019t touch anybodies head\nWhen you\u2019re in Thailand don\u2019t even touch the head of children. Thai see the head as the most important part of the body. It is not taken well if you touch their head.\n9. Don\u2019t point\nYou may use your hand, but never point your finger to a place or to somebody. This one can be hard for western people as it is very common to point.\n10. Don\u2019t lift your feet up\nAccording to Thai etiquette, you cannot put your feet on a table or seat. You should keep your feet on the ground. If your sitting on the ground, keep your feet below or next to you. It is also rude to move something with your feet. As we mentioned earlier, feet are considered dirty.",

        "raw_content": "Animal PetsZone \u00bb Fish Ornamental \u00bb Oscar Fish Population and Maintenance\nOscar Fish Population and Maintenance\nOscar Fish is not known to exist in the wild in the Northern Territory. However, it is a popular aquarium fish throughout Australia and is considered to have the potential to become a major pest of wet tropical regions of northern Australia. Typically, oscar grows to about 200-280 mm, Young Oscar fish have wavy white and orange markings on a black background; colouration of the body and fins of adults is usually very dark, with olive blue-green and mustard colours, highlighting large dark blotches. Some have orange or red markings.\nThe base of the caudal fin has a large spot or ocellus bordered with red. Fin colouration varies; usually it is very dark, occasionally there are ocelli present and eyes are red. This species does not tolerate cold waters. A lower lethal temperature of 12.9\u00b0C has been reported for specimens under experimental conditions. The natural diet of oscar includes fruit, snails, insects and small fish. Other items such as reptiles may be opportunistically eaten. It is an omnivore with carnivorous tendencies. Oscar Fish is renowned for its aggressiveness. It may have a significant impact on native fishes through direct predation and competition for breeding areas.\nOscars mature early (10 to 12 months), have relatively high fecundity and are territorial during the breeding season. Spawning normally takes place in still waters on flat, solid surfaces. The female typically lays about 3,000 eggs and both parents are occasionally seen guarding hundreds of young in shallow water along shorelines.\nOscar is a cichlid native to the Amazon basin and has worldwide commercial value as an ornamental species. Over its native range oscar is found in the Amazon, Orinoco and La Plata River systems in South America. Wild populations of oscar are not known to exist in the Northern Territory. However, populations of this exotic fish do exist along the Central Queensland coast and it is considered to have the potential to become a major aquatic pest of wet tropical regions of northern Australia.\nOscar In Aquarium\nWhen selecting filtration for an oscar tank, you will need to keep a few things in mind. First and foremost, you will need to remember that Oscars are very big and very messy creatures, probably messier than any other fish you have kept. They eat a lot, and a lot of what they eat ends up coming out of their gills in a mashed-up mess. The rest comes out the back end as prodigious amounts of feces. Combine that with the relatively large amount of urine produced by Oscars, and you have substantial hurdles for both biological and mechanical filtration.\nA second consideration is the size of the tank. If you need help selecting an apropriate sized tank, read this article, and this article. Larger tanks will need more filtration, both to provide adequate water movement, and to ensure that all water in the tank passes through the filtration with a reasonable frequency. A third consideration is your budget. Different types of filters cost varying amounts. However, as we will examine later in this article, the old axim \u201cyou get what you pay for\u201d is quite true in fishkeeping.\nWhen I talk about wet/dry filtration, I am talking about sumps that sit under the tank, not the \u201cbio-wheel\u201d filters produced by Marineland. Wet/dry filters are the kings of biological filtration.\nThey achive this superior biological filtration by running water across massive amounts of biological media in the presence of air. Different designs achieve this in different ways, but the principles involved remain the same. The only drawback of wet/dry filters is that they normally either lack, or are very weak in the area of mechanical filtration.\nAs mentioned above, mechanical filtration is quite important in an oscar tank. Therefore, if you use a wet/dry set-up, you will need to make sure that mechanical filtration is covered. This can be done by either modifying your wet/dry system to include mechanical filtration directly, or by adding supplemental filters to perform the mechanical filtration role.\nModern cannisters are the Jacks-of-all-trades of the filtration world. They do this by providing large amounts of space for media that can be customized to fit your specific needs. They can be optimized to provide mainly biological, mainly mechanical, or a good balance between the two. Cannisters are also excellent investments because of their ease of maintenance, and relatively inexpensive operating costs. Properly-sized cannisters can go anywhere from a month to as much as 4 months without any maintenance. Compare this to most other types of filtration, which needs to be serviced at least every couple of weeks, and you can see some substantial savings in bot time, and media costs.\nAlso called Hang-On-the-Back, or HOB filters, the power filters are by far the cheapest filters to buy. They are an excellent choice for smaller (55 gallons and under) tanks, or as supplemental and/or back-up filtration on a larger tank. While it is theoretically possible to put enough HOB filters on tanks up to about 125 gallons to provide adequate filtration, I do not recommend it. This is because in this size range, you are talking about at least three filtes that will most likely need to be maintained weekly. This is an aweful lot of work and recurring expense for filters that are only marginally adequate.\nWhile it would be difficult to add enough to properly filter a tank with one or more full-grown\noscars, sponge filters do have some good uses in Oscar keeping. They are a cheap way to add\na little extra mechanical and biological filtration to a tank, and make nice back-up filters. Also, if you keep one running in a large tank, you have a pre-cycled filter ready if you need to set-up a hospital tank. Sponge filters are also cheap, effective filters for fry grow-out tanks.\nTwo factors essentially rule out undergravel filters (uGFs) for oscar tanks. First is the general messiness of Oscars, which is discussed above. The waste tends to clog up the gravel, and reduce the flow through your UGF. Second, Oscars love to dig, especially around spawning time. They dig so much that they will often dig all the way to the bottom of the gravel, and expose the UGF's plates. This will cause a short-circuit in the water flow, and virtually eliminate any filtration occuring in the UGF. When combining these two factors, it is generally best to avoid UGfs in an Oscar tank. While they might provide some benefit as supplemental filtration, the work involved in keeping the gravel clean and the UGF plates covered is simply not worth it.",

Bush Category:\nAmerica is the land of the second chance - and when the gates of the prison open, the path ahead should lead to a better life.\nAnd what's interesting, and I don't think a lot of Americans understand this fact, is that, one, most new jobs are created by small businesses; two, most small businesses pay tax at the individual income tax, or many small businesses pay tax there.\nFor all who love freedom and peace, the world without Saddam Hussein's regime is a better and safer place.\nFor diplomacy to be effective, words must be credible - and no one can now doubt the word of America.\nI believe in the transformational power of liberty. I believe that the free Iraq is in this nation's interests. I believe a free Afghanistan is in this nation's interest.\nI have written a book. This will come as quite a shock to some. They didn't think I could read, much less write.\nI have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You're not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena, until I start selling my book. I'm going to emerge then submerge.\nI just didn't want to get out there anymore; I didn't want to get back into what I call 'the swamp.' And the other reason why is I don't think it's good for the presidency for a former president to be opining about his successor. President Obama's got plenty of critics - and I'm just not gonna be one.\nI know it's going to be the private sector that leads this country out of the current economic times we're in. You can spend your money better than the government can spend your money.\nI think you can judge from somebody's actions a kind of a stability and sense of purpose perhaps created by strong religious roots. I mean, there's a certain patience, a certain discipline, I think, that religion helps you achieve.\nI told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind.\nI understand everybody in this country doesn't agree with the decisions I've made. And I made some tough decisions. But people know where I stand.\nI'm hopeful. I know there is a lot of ambition in Washington, obviously. But I hope the ambitious realize that they are more likely to succeed with success as opposed to failure.\nIf you're sick and tired of the politics of cynicism and polls and principles, come and join this campaign.\nIt's going to be the year of the sharp elbow and the quick tongue.\nLook, when you're the president, there's all kinds of things said about us. I mean, it's just the nature of the job.\nNo one was more shocked or angry than I was when we didn't find the weapons. I had a sickening feeling every time I thought about it. I still do.\nNow, there are some who would like to rewrite history - revisionist historians is what I like to call them.\nOne of my proudest moments is I didn't sell my soul for the sake of popularity.\nPeople forget... that we structured it so that the government, or the people, would be repaid with a really good rate of return. And as it turns out, that aspect of TARP, that's what happened.\nPeople make suggestions on what to say all the time. I'll give you an example; I don't read what's handed to me. People say, 'Here, here's your speech, or here's an idea for a speech.' They're changed. Trust me.\nSo, I'm lying on the couch and Laura walks in and I say, 'Free at last,' and she says 'You're free all right, you're free to do the dishes.' So I say, 'You're talking to the former president, baby,' and she said, 'consider this your new domestic policy agenda.'\nSome folks look at me and see a certain swagger, which in Texas is called \"walking.\"",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Rethinking NO Child Left Behind Act: States are the Problem\nWomen in Combat: Lifting the ban sheds light on Military Sexual Trauma\nDuring times of war, women, who felt qualified, volunteered to serve their country. Women of all races have been fighting, killing, and dying in wars throughout the ages. The collective histories of these women are often unrewarded. Many of these women fought for equality in the armed forces despite sexual violence and gender discrimination. African American women have served, in spite of sexual violence, racial and gender discrimination. Despite their tripartite oppression, African American women are a critical source of new recruits in the U.S. Military. According to Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, the heroism and gallantry of these patriotic women are \u201ccontributing in unprecedented ways to the military\u2019s mission of defending this nation\u2026They serve, they\u2019re wounded and they die right next to each other. The time has come to recognize that reality.\u201d It appears that their sacrifices will not be in vain.\nEarlier this year, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta lifted the ban that denied women equality in combat roles. By lifting the ban, women can now serve in the estimated 200,000 combat positions in the armed forces (www.defense.gov). According to Panetta, \u201cIf members of our military can meet the qualifications for a job, then they should have the right to serve, regardless of creed, color, gender or sexual orientation.\u201d The decision to lift the ban, which will not be fully implemented until 2016, will allow up to 14 percent of women in the United States Military to fulfill jobs officially termed \u201ccombat\u201d. This is a significant victory for women in the armed forces, and for African American women in particular. Determined to serve, African American women are well represented in the U.S. Military. According to the 2011 New York Times article entitled \u201cBlack Women Enlisting at Higher Rates in the US Military,\u201d a study by the Pew Research Center found that \u201cof the 167,000 enlisted women in the military, 31 percent are Black, twice their percentage in the civilian female population\u2026White women, by comparison, represent 53% of women in the military, while accounting for 78 percent of the civilian female population.\u201d The lifting of the ban by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Defense Secretary Panetta acknowledges the significant roles women have played in the U.S. Military, in general, and African American women, in particular. Yet, it fails to adequately address the sexual violence women experience in the armed forces by their fellow soldiers.\nWhile the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Defense Secretary Panetta have taken actions to guarantee women are granted a more equal role in the military, a point that needs emphasizing is that they have failed to reduce the frequency of sexual assaults and rapes of women in the military. Rape and sexual assault of women is so rampant, that the Department of Veteran Affairs refers to the experiences as Military Sexual Trauma (MST). Military Sexual Trauma is defined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs as \u201cpsychological trauma, which in the judgment of a VA mental health professional, resulted from a physical assault of a sexual nature, battery of a sexual nature, or sexual harassment which occurred while the Veteran was serving on active duty or active duty for training.\u201d\nAccording to the Military Rape Crisis Center website (http://militaryrapecrisiscenter.org/) in March 2013, \u201cThe United States Coast Guard Academy reports 10% of all female cadet\u2019s experienced unwanted sexual contact, a 2% increase from the previous year.\u201d In 2012, the Service Women\u2019s Action Network website reported that \u201c30% of homeless women veteran VHA users screened positive for MST, in 2010 alone, as well as 108,121 veterans screened positive for MST, and 45.7% of these survivors were men.\u201d Not to mention, the Department of Defense believes that the actual number of sexual assaults is highly underreported; the actual numbers are closer to 19,000 assaults annually. If the Department of Defense is right, then it is undeniable that they are not taking a strong enough position to protect women in the United States armed forces from rape, sexual assault, and/or sexual harassment at the hands of the very men they stand beside in the armed forces. According to the Feministe website, in a 2010 article entitled, Class Action Against U.S. Military On Behalf of Sexual Assault Survivors, \u201cover 90% of all females that report sexual assault are discharged from the military before their contract ends. From the 90%, around 85% are discharged against their wishes.\u201d Often these women are discharged and are unable to receive VA benefits and mental health services for MST.\nMy own view is that the effort of Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Defense Secretary to increase women\u2019s combat roles is being taken, at least in part, to help reduce the frequency of sexual assault on women in general, and African American women, in particular. As I searched the web, I was unable to find statistics on the racial breakdown of women who are sexually assaulted. Yet, we know that Black women are a large part of the Armed Forces, thus, they represent a large percentage of the rapes and sexual assaults in the military. By lifting the ban, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Department of Defense hope that as women move up in rank and file in the military, the odds of rape and sexual assault will decrease. There is some evidence to suggest that this effort will be effective. According to a report by Anne Sandler et.al in the American Journal of Industrial Medicine entitled Factors Associated with Women\u2019s Risk of Rape in the Military Environment, states \u201cFor a respondent to be one of the first women to perform a traditionally male job, nearly doubled the odds of rape overall\u201d among women who served in the armed forces before the Persian Gulf War (PGW). However, for PGW-era veterans, being one of the first women to perform a traditionally male job was associated with lower odds of rape (0.75 for PGW vs. 3.0 for prior eras).\u201d Although this evidence seems promising, the U.S. Military will need to do more to eliminate sexual violence, gender and racial discrimination of women in the military.\nIt is my hope that lifting the ban will lead to a revolutionary shift in consciousness that will help men see women as equals, and in turn, reframe the military culture. Although I agree that gender neutral combat roles is a step in the right direction, I not sure that signing a bill is going to be enough. I am not convinced that by allowing the large number of women in the military to serve in front line combat positions and potentially elite commando roles will create shared experiences and camaraderie that will stop men from raping, sexually assaulting, and/or sexually harassing women in general, and Black women in particular. We must require the U.S. military to do more. The brave women who serve the United States should not return home suffering from Military Sexual Trauma. We must also consider the broader effects of allowing military women to return to schools, churches, businesses, and communities suffering from the psychological trauma of Military Sexual Trauma. Are we prepared to live in world with thousands of women veterans suffering from combat trauma and the psychological trauma of MST? As a society, we must require the U.S. Military to articulate, implement and enforce standards that will eliminate all the unnecessary gender based barriers women experience in the military. The U.S. Military must cultivate a culture where the majority of women in the military can serve our country without the fear of being raped, sexually assaulted, and/or sexually harassed by a fellow soldier. As a country, we must show great courage, strength, and determination to make our armed forces safe for all soldiers. It is time for America to realize that both women and men are equally responsible for this country, and that it is our duty to protect and serve the men and women who sign up to fight for this country.\nThis entry was posted on Thursday, May 16th, 2013 at 4:35 pm\tand is filed under Aundrea Matthews, Bloggers.

        "raw_content": "Speciality Insurance: From International Schools Insurance Policies To Military Insurance\nAll men and women serving in HM Forces, whether they serve with the Army, Navy or Royal Air Force, should consider getting life insurance for the financial security it provides to family members. There are special policies available not only to those in HM Armed Forces, but also international schools, teachers and expatriates.\nBoth international schools insurance policies and expats insurance policies provide cover that suits the requirements of those markets, which makes them more suitable for these situations than domestic insurance policies would be. However, if you are a serviceman or servicewoman you are probably more interested in the military insurance policies available. If you do not already have life insurance then perhaps it is time to take a look at some military life insurance policies. This is very important as it provides financial security for your entire family, especially if they depend on the money you bring into the household. If anything were to happen to you, your family would be left without an important source of income, so it is always better to prepare in advance for such situations.\nIf you know you are going to be deployed to a high risk area in a matter of weeks, or months, life insurance could be a good idea, but unfortunately most companies have limitations when it comes to insuring personnel preparing to deploy to such areas. Most life insurance companies will not provide cover if the person looking to get insured is aware of the fact that he or she will be deployed to a high risk area within the following 6 to 12 months. The solution is to get insurance way before any deployment plans start being formed, so it is better to act immediately and get insured while you are eligible.\nBesides life insurance policies, there are also other insurance policies available, such as critical illness insurance cover. This policy covers both life-threatening and non-life-threatening conditions such as strokes, cancer, heart attacks, etc., and also covers debilitating conditions such as loss of limbs.\nIt should be noted that no insurance company is required to insure someone, so insurance companies can decide for themselves if they want to insure a certain individual or not. If the company feels the risk is too high, either due to the lifestyle of the individual, or his or her health, they can refuse to provide cover.\nThose looking to get insured have the option of doing it online. Checking policies from different companies is also much easier to do online, as most of the information can be found on the website of each insurance company, and it is simply a matter of analysing which insurance company offers the best terms for a specific policy. Ordering online is simple and fast and usually it is simply a matter of filling out a form and waiting for the paperwork to arrive via email. You can also find a specially trained insurance broker who will help you find the most suitable policy for you.\nMost insurance companies offer a discount if a policy is ordered online and that is a benefit that everyone should take advantage of. Discounts can get quite high and while the money saved on one trip travel insurance, for example, may not be a lot, things certainly change if you are looking at an annual insurance policy for the entire family. The money saved can be substantial, so it would be a shame not to look for the best offer and take advantage of the discount.\nAs previously mentioned, members of different organisations or communities may also have special discounts available just for them, like the policies for International Schools community members and their international schools insurance policies, or expatriates with their expats insurance policies. Since these policies have several advantages over domestic insurance policies, it is always better to get such a policy as opposed to a policy designed for the local population. It is not simply a matter of money, as some may think, as most of the time such insurance policies are not cheaper. It is a matter of benefits provided, and in many cases the portability of the policy from country to country. For example, military personnel looking to get military life insurance or travel insurance have cover that reflects their particular requirements.\nTravel insurance policies have cancellation cover for members of HM Forces, in case the trip they were taking was cancelled due to being posted overseas or emergency and unavoidable duty. Just remember that accidents can happen and sometimes there is just no way of preventing them, so it is better to be safe than sorry, so get insured as quickly as possible.\nLife Insurance Corporation of India is the biggest government-owned life insurer in India. The company is also the biggest investor in India. The Government of India is the overall owner of the company. The headquarters of LIC India are located in Mumbai.\nThe company offers insurance plans for both individuals and employee groups. LIC India finances 24 percentage of the outlays of the Government of India. The insurer carries out its operations with the help of 100 divisional offices, 8 zonal offices, 2,048 branch offices and 10,02,149 agents. The asset value of the company has been evaluated at Rs. 9.31 trillion (US Dollor 202.03 billion).\nHistory of Life Insurance Corporation of India:\nLIC of India was incorporated in 1956 with the amalgamation of over 200 insurance companies and provident societies. Previously, it was known as Oriental Life Insurance Company. The company was the first to offer life coverage in India. It was set up in Kolkata by Bipin Behari Dasgupta in 1818. The first national insurance carrier was Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society, established in 1870.\nOther insurance providers set up in the preindependence period include the following:\nUnited India (1906)\nBharat Insurance Company (1896)\nNational Insurance (1906)\nNational Indian (1906)\nHindustan Co-operatives (1907)\nCo-operative Assurance (1906)\nGeneral Assurance\nIndian Mercantile\nSwadeshi Life (later Bombay Life)\nAfter the introduction of the Life Insurance Act and Provident Fund Act in 1912, the company underwent a series of mergers and acquisitions. Nationalization of the Insurance industry in India sped up this procedure. The company ranks as the biggest government insurer at the present time.\nProducts and services of Life Insurance Corporation of India\nThe products and services of LIC India are as follows:\nSubsidiaries and affiliates of LIC India Given below are the names of the subsidiaries and affiliates of Life Insurance Corporation of India:\nLIC Mauritius\nLIC Fiji\nLIC Representative Office, Singapore\nLIC United Kingdom\nLIC (Nepal) Ltd\nLIC (International) B.S.C (C), Bahrain\nSaudi Indian Company for Co-op.

Arranging a local plan may not be sufficient for an expat and they should look to invest in an international private medical insurance coverage for themselves.\nPre-existing Medical Conditions: A pre-existing medical condition is a condition that you had prior to buying your health insurance and more often than not, international health insurance companies from around the World will not cover these at all.\nThis can be a confusing exclusion on many insurance plans as the definition can change from company to company. Make sure you are open and honest about your previous medical history and if in doubt, ask! Whether it is covered or not, you need to know what risks you are exposed to whilst living overseas.\nMedical Necessity: Health insurance companies will often question whether medical treatment is required or not or even if the care will have any bearing on the wellbeing of the patient. Many insurance policy wordings will have exclusion relating to cosmetic treatment, holistic treatment or may blanket exclude anything they deem unnecessary with the term \u201cmedical necessity.\u201d\nMedical necessity is debatable and if the insurance company declines your claim on this basis and you feel it is unfair, don\u2019t give up; It is sometimes a case of the insurance company having not been informed of how necessary the treat actually was. Ask the treating doctor to explain it clearer in a way that relates to your overall wellbeing and the symptoms you were suffering from.\nHealth insurance companies often have a bad reputation for wanting to get out of paying a claim. On the whole, this is underserved and the companies can be reasonable and will authorize payment if there is cover in place. One simple rule is communication; if you are concerned about anything discuss it with the company prior to buying the insurance. If you need treatment, advise them beforehand and they will be able to confirm the coverage under the policy or even guarantee it directly with the medical facility.",

        "title": "The Age of Consent",
        "raw_content": "The Age of Consent in 18th-century England\nMy comments below relate to English law in the 18th century, though these standards were true for most of the 19th century as well. These \"ages of consent\" were fairly common across Europe, and in the United States.\nThe age of consent for girls with regard to sexual intercourse was 10 \u0096 that is, sex with a girl below the age of 10 was automatically classified as rape, because girls below the age of 10 were deemed to be legally incapable of consent. The age of consent for girls with regard to marriage was 12 \u0096 that is, a girl under the age of 12 could not lawfully consent to marriage.\nThe age of consent for boys was 14. Specifically, (1) it was not lawful for boys below the age of 14 to get married; and (2) boys below the age of 14 could not be prosecuted for sodomy, or, I think, for rape. Also, children (whether boys or girls) below the age of 14 were not supposed to be prosecuted for murder (a capital felony), but there were some exceptions.\nFor an adult, sodomy was illegal in all cases, regardless of the age of the partner and regardless of the consent of the partner. That is, it is not possible to have an \"age of consent\" for homosexual relations.\nThe age of consent for girls was designed to protect girls from sexual molestation or exploitation, but the age of consent for boys was designed to protect boys from sexual prosecution, not to protect boys from sexual molestation. I don't think there are any cases involving heterosexual molestation, i.e. the rape of boys by women, which is not deemed to be conceivable. The law against buggery already protected them against male sexual molestation.\nThe \"age of consent\" essentially constitutes the age of legal liability. Modern historians and sex-law reformers usually anachronistically use the concept in the context of the legal liability of the older person rather than the legal liability of the younger person whose age is being considered. Certainly within the field of homosexual relations, today the \"age of consent\" is used to determine whether or not the older partner can be prosecuted, whereas in the past it was used solely to determine whether or not the younger partner could be prosecuted.\nThere are probably exceptions to these rules. There is some ambiguity in some trials as to whether \"14 years old\" means having attained one's 14th birthday, or just being in one's 14th year after passing one's 13th birthday. Ditto for the concept of \"12 years old\". But I don't think this ambiguity arose in cases involving children \"10 years old\", because all or virtually all such cases brought to the attention of the court involved force or violence in any event, and would have been deemed rape regardless of age.\n(I think that in general, throughout the century there was some ambiguity when mentioning the age of persons, i.e. whether a person's age expressed in years relates to the period before or the period after a certain birthday.)\nThe age of consent has steadily crept upward, while the age of puberty has crept downward, which demonstrates that the concept is a legal construct having no biological basis.\nThe legal history, though very complicated, can be summarized: the age of consent for girls was 12 in the 13th century, but was lowered to 10 in 1576, and remained there until it was raised to 12 in 1861, then to 13 in 1875, and then to 16 in 1885. One could enter into a Common Law marriage at the age of 12.\nRegarding boys, Blackstone in his Commentaries on the Laws of England (IV, chap. 15, section 3) summarizes the position: \"A male infant, under the age of fourteen years, is presumed by law incapable to commit a rape, and therefore it seems cannot be found guilty of it. For though in other felonies *malitia supplet aetatem*, as has in some cases been shewn; yet, as to this particular species of felony, the law supposes an imbecillity of body as well as mind.\"\nOn the subject of the age of 14 for boys, Randolph Trumbach in Sex and the Gender Revolution (Vol. 1, p. 59) says \"In the eighteenth century, [the age of puberty for boys] would have been around fifteen years of age. At that age aristocratic boys were often taken away from school because puberty had begun. One mother referred to her fifteen-year-old son as being at 'his dangerous time of life.' Schoolmasters agreed; and William Gilpin, for instance, was inclined to refuse to educate such boys, after they had come to what he called 'the age of right and wrong.' Fifteen was also the age at which many boys started to run after whores. Because of these considerations, lawyers declared fourteen to be the age of sexual consent for boys\" (and he cites some sources).\nAlthough today we use the term \"age of consent\" to refer to the age at which one can legally consent to sex, until recent times the term refered to the age at which one can consent to marriage, i.e. the age at which a contract of marriage can be legally entered into.\nThis is because, until recent times, sex outside of marriage was an offence in all circumstances regardless of age, so it would have been inconceivable that any law would legitimize an age at which non-marital sex could be engaged in. It's only in recent times that sex outside of marriage would be implicitly sanctioned by law, and I'm not sure it was specifically sanctioned even in the late 19th century. I believe that the term \"consent\" was still the term used in marital law, and that law governing non-marital sex logically pegged the age at the same age for legal marriage. The point I'm making is that \"consent\" still continued to be linked to marital legislation even though it also came to be used in non-marital sex legislation. For most historical periods, age of consent legislation has been part of marital regulation rather than sexual regulation, and our discussion of it as simply a matter of sexual regulation is historically anachronistic.\nOf course marriage entails conjugal duties and exists for the purpose of procreation (according to most legal and religious discourse), so this age was tied to the age at which conception/impregnation became possible (basically, the age at which menstruation or ejaculation occurs: the ages at which a girl becomes a woman and a boy becomes a man), plus about a year to confirm that \"maturity\" status.\nThe age at which one can legally consent to marriage was usually very close to the age at which one assumed adult responsibilities, i.e. could be held responsible in a court of law for one's own actions. You could reasonably call this an implicit age of \"sexual autonomy\", though people wouldn't have used that phrase: indeed I don't think many people would use those terms even today! I don't think that \"sexual majority\" would be construed as a concept separate from \"majority\" tout court, until quite recent times. \"Majority\" of course is a bit hard to pin down anyway, because there are different ages at which you could sign a financial contract (or not at all if you were a woman!), and different ages at which you could be prosecuted for a felony or a misdemeanour, different ages for voting, different ages for entering military service, etc.\nIn eighteenth-century Scotland, if a 12-year-old woman and a 14-year-old man agreed to marry and then had sex, they were considered to be legally married and did not require either parental consent, or the calling of the banns, or a marriage licence \u0096 they had achieved the age of consent. Within this historical context it is quite proper to call a 12-year-old female a \"woman\" rather than a girl, and a 14-year-old male a \"man\" rather than a boy, and I don't think that 12/14-year-old persons were always called \"children\" in the documents of that period. Marital regulations were tighter in England after the mid-1770s, though I don't know the exact details of the legislation history. The age of consent was slowly raised in British legislation (and thus came to be no longer clearly linked to menstruation/ejaculation), but it remained very young by modern standards.\nAge of consent legislation from a historical point of view was empowering legislation rather than limiting legislation. That is, the age of consent was the age at which one could no longer be prevented from getting married (or, by extension, having sex). Since the late 19th century the discourse has been dominated by theories of protection, due almost entirely to the exploitation of very young females in the prostitution market (including enforced prostitution of children). If older men had sex with young girls and married them, I don't think a need for legislation would have been felt, but they were of course having sex with them and then abandoning them \u0096 and their offspring. Even today the most pressing social problem (and the main justification for legislation) is the poverty trap for 12-year-old unmarried mothers and their children, rather than individual traumas of \"sexual abuse\" per se. But 15/16/17-year-old gay men rightly point out that such laws criminalize rather than protect them.\nPostmodern \"Critical Theorists\" have sometimes taken the view that prohibiting sexual relations with children has more to do with the protection of patriarchal rights (children as the property of their father, laws of inheritance etc.) than with the actual protection of children. But I really don't think that the patriarchy paradigm accurately captures the historical reality. For instance, throughout the 18th century in England there were scores and scores of prosecutions for the sexual abuse of children, and the evidence of the trial records does not support this patrarchal theory. The sexual abuse of boys has no effect (short of murder) on the line of succession and inheritance, and in that sense is irrelevant to this patriarchal analysis. More importantly, most of the cases, for abused girls as well as boys, involve children whose families are in the very lower social classes, children who actually are not going to inherit anything, and families for whom the idea of \"a line of succession\" is nonexistent because there was no material wealth or wealth-producing reputation to pass on, so this also does not support the patriarchal paradigm.\nLastly, and perhaps most interestingly and importantly, in virtually all cases the prosecutions were initiated by the mothers rather than the fathers of the abused children. The fathers in most cases were disinclined to prosecute, partly because they just didn't think it was worth stirring up trouble or going to the expense of prosecution. They don't seem to have perceived abuse of their children as an attack on their male honour etc. The motivation for condemning sexual abuse of children really was the sexual shame and more specifically outrage of the mother, not fear of offending patriarchal rules, by either mother or father. I think it would also be wrong to try to twist this into a claim that the mother was prosecuting in order to uphold the patriarchal honour of her husband, because the documentary evidence shows a clear moral revulsion about the experience of the child, not the reputation of the patriarchy. Publication of such cases in the newspapers produced many shocked reactions, linked to emotional outrage and use of terms such as \"sickening\", and I think these expressed genuine abhorrence rather than having anything to do with the ideology of patriarchy.\nOne has to acknowledge, however, that in trials for the rape of young girls, which were quite frequent, the accuser was often acquitted, unless serious physical damage to the girl was self-evident. Juries were reluctant to rely solely on the evidence of young children in the absence of witnesses, especially as conviction could easily result in the death penalty. I know that some social historians claim that a low rate of conviction establishes \"the attitudes of society\", but I feel that a high rate of prosecution provides a surer guideline to \"the attitudes of society\". The men who were acquitted usually left their jobs and moved out of the community where the incident occurred, so they lost status in the community.\nIn sum, the patriarchal paradigm is simplistic and inadequate. If you broaden the issue to abuse in general, rather than just sexual abuse specifically, you will be confronted by the fact that children are physically abused more frequently by women than by men. They are also murdered more frequently by women than by men. In patriarchal societies, families are in fact matrilocal (while also being patrilineal). The dominant figure is the older woman, which is why popular culture is so full of stories about mothers-in-law. This is not just a literary stereotype. In the South Asian immigrant community in London today, women are certainly oppressed by such things as enforced marriage, but when you examine the high number of cases of wife beating in this culture, you will regularly find that these same wives are regularly physically abused by their mothers-in-law. This is because the mother-in-law is trying to control her son's wife in the same way that she is used to controlling her own daughters, because back home in the original culture she was the head of the family. If we're going to use grand paradigms to understand this, we will recognise that the child/wife victim of physical abuse is the victim of the conflict between matriarchal and patriarchal forces, not the victim of patriarchy alone.\nMy comments about the sexual abuse of children in 18th century England are impressions formed while reading trials and newspaper accounts in search of information about the criminal underworld, so the information hasn't been systematically gathered and I've jotted down notes of only some of the material because that wasn't my primary interest. However, I should perhaps flesh out what I've said, even though it amounts to a scattering of observations rather than anything statistical. Here is a brief summary, for example, of 24 prosecutions of rape from 1720 to 1731:\nIn 1720 M\u0097 L\u0097 was charged with raping a servant of unknown age and was acquitted.\nIn 1721 John Weston, for raping a 13-year-old girl, was acquitted; Christopher Krafft for raping a 12-year-old girl was sentenced to death, but pardoned; James Booty for raping a 5-year-old girl was hanged.\nIn 1722 Edward Fox for raping a 10-year-old girl was acquitted.\nIn 1723 Charles Maccarty for raping a 10-year-old girl was acquitted; H\u0097 J\u0097 for raping a \"Spinster\" of unknown age was acquitted; Gerard Bourn for raping a 10-year-old girl was acquitted.\nIn 1725 Robert Lander raped a 16-year-old girl and was fined 10 marks; Samuel Street raped a 17-year-old girl and was fined 20 marks and imprisoned for 6 months; and three men, John Alloway, John Pritchard, and John Simmons charged with raping young girls of unknown age were acquitted.\nIn 1726 Adam White charged with sodomizing his 11-year-old daughter Mary was acquitted.\nFor the remainder of that decade, 10 men were charged with raping young girls of unspecified ages and were acquitted, 1 was whipped and imprisoned for 1 year, and 1 was sentenced to death.\nMost of my research is into primary sources. But a good secondary source is Antony E. Simpson, \"Vulnerability and the age of female consent\", in Sexual underworlds of the Enlightenment (Manchester University Press, 1987), pp. 181\u0096205, which shows that from 1730 to 1830 there were 294 prosecutions for (heterosexual) rape in the Old Bailey; a guilty verdict was given in only 51 of these cases (17%), and 28 of the offenders were executed; 57 of the cases involved girls under the age of 10 years, and 10 of these offenders were found guilty. The age of 10 years was legally regarded as the age of consent or age of sexual discretion for females, two years below the age at which a girl could marry.\nIt's difficult to get accurate data about exact ages. Very often the age is unspecified, but can be inferred by circumstances such as the girl still living with her parents and not going out to service, or by the terms used in the account or newspaper reports. For example, in Worcester, in July 1726 a fellow stood in the pillory for attempting \"to commit a Rape upon a Girl\", and after being set free \"attempted to ravish a young Woman in the Fields\" (and also tried to rip her private parts); this latter female had previously had a miscarriage so of course was not a child. His behaviour was deemed \"inhuman\" and he was thrown into irons. (Weekly Journal, or the British Gazetteer, 23 July 1726). I mention this case because it seems to suggest that contemporary newspapers reserved the word \"Girl\" for someone prepubertal or just around puberty, and the term \"young Woman\" for someone sexually mature.\nIn Portsmouth in October 1727 two Dragoons were committed to gaol for raping \"a couple of young girls\". One of them must have been very young, because the Dragoon could not enter her and was just about to use a knife to enlarge her vaginal slit when he was captured and prevented. (British Journal, 21 October 1727).\nWhen the age is specified, it is usually the age of 10 or \"under 10\". This is because, as Sir John Gonson reminded the Grand Jury when he addressed them at the beginning of the Sessions in July 1728, \"To lie with any woman child under ten years old, tho' with her consent, is felony.\" The newspaper reports almost all follow the same pattern as this brief report in the Daily Gazetteer in November 1744: \"This Day the Six following Malefactors are to be Executed at Tyburn; [. . .] And Francis Moulcer, for Ravishing Anne Bishop, an Infant under Ten Years of Age.\"\nCases involving girls vastly outnumber cases involving boys. (By \"girls\" and \"boys\" I mean persons under the age of 12/13.) Whole years would pass without there being a single homosexual prosecution, whereas in every quarterly Sessions there were two or three cases involving the rape of girls (and many more cases involving the rape of young women). I think there were fewer than 20 prosecutions involving the abuse of boys (age 12/13 or under) throughout the century. A typical case, involving serious abuse, was that of Isaac Broderick, an eminent schoolmaster, who regularly had sex with the young boys in his school (sex between their thighs rather than sodomy per se. He also spanked them and caressed their buttocks). Half of dozen of the boys, all aged 10 or 11, were questioned in court and their testimony was believed. Broderick was sentenced to stand in the pillory, 3 months' imprisonment and a fine. The evidence is very interesting in showing how everyone in the boys' families, notably women and grandparents, were involved and their feelings of outrage. I reproduce the trial on my website.\nIf you include boys around the age of 15 or so, the number of cases is perhaps tripled. Delivery boys (around age 15) were often picked up by men; probably many delivery boys were not averse to earning a little pocket money or getting a meal by offering themselves to men. A fairly typical example in the non-consensual category is that of Charles Banner, a schoolteacher who in March 1723 picked up a 15-year-old postboy and built up familiarity with him over a period of several days before molesting him. He was acquitted. I reproduce the trial on my website.\nI think that in most of the cases involving boys aged 13 or under, the offender was a schoolmaster. The boys aged 15 or so were mainly delivery boys or apprentices, and their assailants were encountered by way of their occupations. For example, in 1730 Gilbert Laurence, a gilder, was hanged for raping his 14-year-old boy apprentice in 1730 (and badly damaging his anus). I reproduce the trial on my website.\nAnother typical case involving boys around age 15, which I find rather amusing, involved General Sir Eyre Coote, who in 1816 was in the habit of visiting the Mathematical School of Christ's Hospital and flogging \u0096 and being flogged by \u0096 the 14- to 17-year-old scholars. One of the boys said \"he asked if we would let him flog us, and he would give us so much money \u0096 . . . I consented \u0096 he said he would give me 1s. 6d. for six stripes \u0096 I let down my breeches, and he flogged me \u0096 after he flogged me, he flogged another boy . . . and he asked if we would flog him . . . he pulled down his breeches when the boys had flogged him \u0096 the Nurse came in just as he was pulling up his breeches.\" Another boy was given two shillings for eight stripes with the cane: \"I stood by the side of the table, and he gave me four \u0096 he then put his hand and lifted me on the table, put his hand between my legs \u0096 my breeches were down \u0096 after he gave me the other four, he called me to the fire, and asked if he had made any mark; he put his hand between my legs, put me across his knee, gave me two slaps on the backside with his bare hand.\" In due course Sir Eyre Coote pulled down his own breeches and was flogged in turn by the willing boys.\nAt the first enquiry into the affair, Coote claimed temporary insanity and then fled the country. A tremendous scandal broke. The Duke of York (Commander in Chief) ordered a fresh enquiry, and Coote was asked not to appear in Parliament. The report noted that Coote's repeated visits to the school were under assumed names; this and his prudent effort to avoid disclosure, were at variance with his supposed temporary insanity. Coote was not seen again, but was represented by his lawyers. At a third enquiry they presented petitions signed by numerous Members of Parliament, Peers and gentlemen, confirming that Coote was mentally deranged rather than guilty of any criminal intentions. No legal proceedings were instituted, though he was officially disgraced and stripped of his military honours.

        "title": "Coming Pension Crisis: Why 401(k) Plans Cannot Be the Solution - from Roeder Financial",
        "raw_content": "Coming Pension Crisis: Why 401(k) Plans Cannot Be the Solution\nRick Roeder March 4, 2009\nAmerica's current financial crisis has diverted the spotlight from a looming crisis that will not go away even after any economic rebound.\nThe Center for Economic and Policy Research (\u201cCEPR\u201d) has just completed a sobering study that should scare the hell out of everybody. There are currently 78 million Baby Boomers (age 45-64) in the USA. CEPR projects that slightly over half, 40 million, will be relying almost exclusively on Social Security during their retirement. Social Security was never intended for such utter reliance by so many. When conceived in 1935, Social Security was intended to be one part of a three-legged stool to provide for seniors: The other two legs of the stool were personal savings and employer-sponsored pensions.\nPersonal savings rates have badly eroded over the past 25 years. In the 1980\u2019s, the average individual saved about eight cents of every dollar earned. During the new millennium, the average worker\u2019s savings rate has turned negative. In the 1980s, many private sector employers were thrilled to make 401(k) plans the focus of their retirement program. Such employers were able to transfer investment risk and, in many cases, contribution burdens to their employees. Also, traditional defined benefit pension plans were (and continue to be) under siege from regulators. The federal government got involved by forcing companies, sponsoring a defined benefit plan, to pay steadily increasing insurance premiums and comply with a dizzying array of arcane regulations. Even the accountants stirred the pot, as they forced companies to reflect volatile short-term swings in pension plan market values in their financial statements.\nRelying on defined contribution plans, like 401(k)s, ignore one fundamental reality of the markets: Both bear and bull markets operate in long cycles, as follows:\n1920-1928 BULL\n1929-1942 Bear\nRelying on a traditional defined contribution approach simply cannot work. If a program is designed to provide employees, retiring during a bull market, with adequate income, that same program will tend to provide insufficient income for bear market retirees. If a defined contribution program is designed to provide adequately to new retirees during a bear market, excessive income will result to new retirants during the good times.\nOne of the biggest challenges facing America over the next generation will be to have programs that will assist employees in their retirement in a meaningful way. Public sector employees have largely been successful in fending off attempts to modify or eliminate their defined benefit programs. Whether traditional defined benefit plans are the best answer is debatable. What is regrettably clear is the absence of a concrete national plan to address this looming crisis in a meaningful way.",

        "title": "Musings on Health Care Legislation - from Roeder Financial",
        "raw_content": "Musings on Health Care Legislation\nRick Roeder December 25, 2009\nSadness. Frustration. Anger. A lot of embarrassment. Does anybody else have the same emotions to the Senate's December 20 late-night dance to get to 60 votes on a critical measure to push health care reform one giant step closer to fruition? My reaction is not ideology-based as I truly have a degree of uncertainty as to how America should best proceed.\nA bill with ground-breaking social ramifications is best passed with support from legislators on both sides of the aisles opined CNN's David Gergen. He is spot on! Unlike the landmark passages of Social Security and Medicare, the Senate voted right down party lines with plenty of bitterness and rancor that will not soon dissipate.\nSimply, this vote looked like a political power play to prevent a significant political defeat for the Obama administration --. a page directly out of the Karl Rove playbook. A year ago, one would have expected liberal Democrats to embrace a significant health care bill. However, many liberals are upset with the compromise bill that eliminated \u201cpublic option\u201d and targeted abortion issues. Dr. Howard Dean was so disillusioned with the compromises made to get the latest incarnation of the bill through the Senate that he advocated for the bill's defeat last week.\nOur country has many great people who are being let down by a political system that has become thoroughly corrupted by significant financial interests. The Senate's latest fiasco is not the exception but the general rule during the past decade. It is clear that one of the possible solutions is to restructure the way that political campaigns are financed if our elected representatives can not start focusing on the \u201cgreater good.\u201d\nThe bill does not address most of the fundamental issues that have helped explode our health care costs to a staggering 17% of Gross Domestic Product.\nIt is crystal clear that focusing on wellness is not stressed nearly enough in the bill. Instead, the retention of a traditional, premium-based, fee-for-service model is continued. In the past, the system has incented non-HMO providers to profit from illness instead of wellness. For example, it is much more profitable for doctors to be paid for a gastric bypass surgery than it is to have meaningful programs to help somebody lose 50 pounds.The current bill not only does not successfully \u201cbend the curve of health care costs,\u201d it appears to hardly breathe on the curve.\nShame on the Democrats for again caving in to trial lawyers. While there should be no \u201cfree pass\u201d for medical malfeasance, unlimited liability is very costly and gets passed along to all of us in terms of significantly increased costs. One study indicated that 25% of all tests requested by doctors are \u201cdefensive\u201d in nature.\nShame on the Republicans for protecting the insurance industry. Even if Howard Dean's claim that 27% of every insurance premium dollar is not used for benefits is slightly inflated, there does not appear to be a credible attempt to create new administrative efficiencies. One of the big arguments for \u201cpublic option\u201d was that it was intended to create a more competitive environment that would ultimately help keep costs down for those not electing the public option. Even though the Senate jettisoned public option, bear in mind that the House version did not. There are 60 House Democrats who are on record as saying any reform without a public option is unacceptable. The negotiations on a compromise bill ought to produce fireworks!\nAlso, there is not a sufficiently good reason to keep the long-standing link between employment and insurance availability. The current bill allows a mechanism for most of the uninsured to get insurance through insurance exchanges, subsidies and tax credits. For small businesses, the administrative burden of being involved in the health care promise is high and, with these proposed changes, unnecessary.\nThe cost savings touted by the bill are dishonest. This is the second time in recent years (the government actuary was muzzled during Medicare Part D deliberations) that unbiased actuarial analysis in the health arena would have produced widely divergent numbers from the suspect numbers supplied by Congressional staff. The purported savings touted by the administration looks at projected revenues and expenses over the next decade. That sounds reasonable until you realize that you are comparing 6-7 years of new benefits, which begin no earlier than 2013, to 10 years of revenue increases. If a longer period of comparison were selected, the impact of a 3-4 \u201chead start\u201d of increased revenues compared to the start of increased benefits would rightfully be diminished. This analysis is as misleading as saying that Social Security is in good actuarial shape just because current year Social Security taxes exceed current year payouts.\nThere are other assumptions in the cost savings that many scoff at. For example, there is an assumption that there will be hundreds of millions of reductions in payments to physicians. There are many complications in effectively being able to enforce such assumed reductions. For example, primary care physicians who refer \u201ctoo often\u201d to more expensive specialists, will have financial consequences. What bureaucracy will effectively determine what \u201ctoo often\u201d is? The dealmakers behind health care reform are reportedly already contemplating undoing such reductions in future legislation, both as a sop to the medical community and acknowledgement of the fact that the some of the proposed bureaucratic watch dogging is an administrative nightmare.\nRemember that one of the centerpieces of the bill is coverage for those that had been excluded due to preexisting conditions. This is a very high cost group. Is the cost of covering this group and a significant number of the other 45 million currently uninsured going to be cost neutral? Undoubtedly not! The idea that a 40% excise tax on the \u201cCadillac\u201d portion of benefit coverage (identified as providing value of at least $23,000 annually for family coverage and $8,500 for individual coverage) Medicare reductions, and Medicaid reductions will provide enough offsetting revenues is a pipedream.\nThree weeks ago, an actuarial analysis, commissioned by Blue Cross/Blue Shield, was completed by Oliver Wyman, Inc. regarding provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. They concluded that there would be a 54% increase in premiums, excluding any potential impact of medical inflation, five years after implementation.\nBarring some efficiencies in administration and vastly increased focus on wellness, it would have been refreshing for the administration to admit that there would very likely be some cost increases. Other independent actuarial analysis indicates that the added cost will be north of a trillion dollars over the next decade.\nThe horse trading to get the 58th, 59th and 60th votes of Senators Lieberman, Sanders and Nelson was embarrassing on many levels. It is insane that the states of Vermont and Nebraska would get different Medicaid treatment than any of the other 48 states. Equally inequitable is how Floridians would be able to keep their Medicare Advantage coverage while residents of other states cannot. I wish the deal makers would have had enough pride to do their deal making in a less brazen manner. Think about the horrible precedent set for future legislation. A pragmatic legislator will have lots of incentive to wait until the 12th hour to support a bill if they can get some local pork as a payoff for a vote. This was such a travesty that I am embarrassed that I did not put this under my \u201cAnger\u201d paragraph!\nInstead of adequately analyzing and addressing major revenue sources, the bill targeted some relatively small revenue sources. For example, plastic surgeons in Hollywood, Boca Raton and Palm Springs were dancing in the aisles, even if few others are happy about the bill. The proposed 5% tax on cosmetic surgery was axed from the last Senate bill. Fans of skinny women with unnatural \u201ctops\u201d also applauded.\nThe lobby for plastic surgeons is obviously stronger than tanning salons. How else to explain why these salons will have to pay a 10% tax for their services. I wondered if this was a ploy by the Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce to encourage folks to get their tans the old fashioned way.\nMeanwhile, the likes of Carl, Jr. can advertise their triple-decker, double cheese cholesterol burgers without the burden of any new tax. Nor does the bill provide any individual disincentive for the obese to keep chowing away on unhealthy foods. America's health costs, relating to our obesity epidemic, are very large and need to be addressed. This bill did not touch this sensitive subject. We tax the heck out of cigarettes and it would decrease our nation's health bill if we did the same to certain foods and beverages.\nAmerica is in a fast changing 21st century global economy and we are competing at a significant disadvantage. Relatively speaking, we spend about twice as much as most European countries on health services and much more than double when compared to the emerging economic powers in China and India. In addition to all the current bill's warts, this bill does little to make us more globally competitive.\nHow would I proceed? First, it is important to recognize that few, even amongst Democrats, seem to fully embrace the bills' current provisions. I am reminded of one of the lyrics from the song that noted songwriter John D. Loudermilk penned, \u201cTobacco Road\u201d, a song made famous by The Nashville Teens during the 1964 British Invasion. Loudermilk so despised Tobacco Road that he wanted to \u201cblow it up and start over again.\u201d I would suggest the same course for health care reform. The best solution, in my opinion, is to build around a dual foundation of wellness programs and high deductible, catastrophic coverage for everybody.\nP.S. As for Loudermilk, the Durham-born songwriter would have to admit that North Carolina has prospered and evolved nicely since he penned \u201cTobacco Road.\u201d. With thought, appropriate analysis and a diminishment of political posturing, so too can health care reform.",

        "raw_content": "Ryan Giggs ready for \"Hell\"\nRyan Giggs will never forget his first visit to Istanbul.\nNovember 1993. Champions League second knockout round, second leg. Galatasaray away.\n'I remember it vividly. It will always stick with me,' the veteran Manchester United midfielder said.\n'I was 19 and, when we arrived at the airport, there were all the banners and fans. Thousands of fans screaming at you.\n'There were things being thrown at us when we were driving away on the coach. Outside the hotel their fans were chanting all night, making sure we didn't get any sleep. People were phoning the hotel room.\n'Prior to the game, the manager told us to go on the pitch and sample the atmosphere.\n'The fans had been in the ground for hours and hours. The atmosphere was buzzing 90 minutes before kick-off.\n'We were stood in the middle of the pitch watching the fans chant. It was one stand to another.'\nNineteen years on, Giggs recalls it as being a brilliant experience - at least until the final whistle when United, who had Eric Cantona sent off, were knocked out, triggering a frenzied reaction from their hosts.\n'When we came off the pitch, it was chaos,' Giggs said.\n'Eric had already been sent off and the way back to the dressing room was underneath the pitch.\n'There were armed police either side - not the kind of people you would ever mess with. They had helmets, batons, were all ready. And it just kicked off.\n'I was just trying to get back to the safety of the dressing room as quickly as possible.\n'Obviously not at the time because we lost and went out, but it was a great experience for us.\n'They were a good team then and they will be a good team now.'\nGiggs' last comment is particularly pertinent as United open this season's Champions League campaign against Galatasaray at Old Trafford on Wednesday.\nAnd they are not so much on a revenge mission for that defeat as nursing an additional sense of purpose following last season's debacle, when United tumbled out of the group stage with only two wins.\nAfter reaching three finals in the previous four campaigns, it was an unexpected blow Giggs and his team-mates are anxious to put right.\nAnd the 38-year-old believes he knows just how to do it.\n'We need to win our home games,' he said. 'Usually 10 or more points gets you through, which means winning at home and trying to draw away.\n'We didn't manage it last year because we didn't perform at Old Trafford the way we have done in the past.'\nRobin van Persie's appearance off the bench in Saturday's 4-0 Barclays Premier League win over Wigan showed the Dutchman has no lingering effects from the groin injury that curtailed his international involvement.\nIt also confirmed manager Sir Alex Ferguson's determination not to take any chances in Europe this term after admitting he got his team selections badly wrong last season.\nAnd with fellow new boy Shinji Kagawa also set to return after being given additional time to recover from his arduous trip to Japan, Giggs is expecting both men to make a positive impact.\n'Robin has the experience of playing in Europe with Arsenal,' said the Welshman, who became the first player to clock up 600 Premier League appearances at the weekend.\n'The goals he has got will hopefully give us that extra edge this season.\n'Shinji is that kind of player who will thrive in Europe, where possession is key.\n'He keeps the ball and gets into positions where he is hard to pick up.\n'I am sure they will both be very good additions in Europe for us.'\nRelated keywords: UEFA Champions League, Galatasaray, Manchester United, Ryan Giggs, Sir Alex Ferguson",

        "raw_content": "Wobbly magnetic reconnection speeds up electrons\nScientists have discovered a missing piece in the puzzle of where high-energy particles in Earth's magnetosphere come from. Using data from ESA's Cluster mission, they found that magnetic reconnection can accelerate electrons to very high energies - as long as reconnection happens at a variable pace rather than steadily. The result will improve predictions of space weather, studies of fusion plasma, and the understanding of astrophysical environments affected by magnetic fields.\nUnsteady magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetosphere. Credit: ESA/ATG medialab\nFrom the magnetosphere of Earth and the atmosphere of stars to the interstellar medium, plasma pervades space. Studying this state of matter consisting of charged particles \u2013 electrons, protons, and heavier ions \u2013 is vital to our understanding of a range of natural and artificial phenomena.\nThe properties of plasma are strongly shaped by the presence of magnetic fields. In some cases, this interaction can accelerate particles \u2013 mainly electrons \u2013 to very high energies. In Earth's magnetosphere, high-energy electrons can disrupt GPS transmissions and even endanger the health of astronauts involved in spacewalks.\nA team of scientists, led by Huishan Fu from the Swedish Institute of Space Physics in Uppsala, Sweden and Beihang University in Beijing, China, used ESA's Cluster mission to investigate how particles are accelerated by directly probing plasma in Earth's magnetosphere.\nTheir study, which is published in Nature Physics, examines how particles are energised by a phenomenon that is known to take place in plasma \u2013 magnetic reconnection. They show that as long as the reconnection is unsteady, it can accelerate electrons to very high energies.\n\"Magnetic reconnection happens at the collision of two flows of plasma with magnetic fields that are oriented in opposite directions,\" explains Fu.\n\"In the process, the magnetic field lines are broken and immediately rearranged in a new configuration; at the same time, two jets of high-speed plasma are launched from the site of magnetic reconnection into opposite directions.\"\nMagnetic reconnection is an efficient mechanism to transfer the energy stored in the magnetic field to the kinetic energy of particles in the plasma.\nIn the Solar System, magnetic reconnection may take place in the solar wind as it travels through interplanetary space, as well as in the magnetosphere of planets that possess a magnetic field.\nScientists know that magnetic reconnection can accelerate particles and produce high-energy electrons. Whether acceleration happens every time as a result of reconnection, however, was still an open issue.\n\"We know that electrons are accelerated up to 100 keV, and even more, after magnetic reconnection in the magnetotail, the tail of Earth's magnetosphere which points away from the Sun,\" says co-author Mats Andr\u00e9 from the Swedish Institute of Space Physics in Uppsala, Sweden. \"But for some reason the same thing doesn't seem to happen during reconnection in the interplanetary solar wind.\"\n\"This was clearly a signature of something more fundamental underneath, but we didn't know what that was,\" he adds.\nSo the scientists browsed the Cluster archive looking for magnetic reconnection events in the tail of the magnetosphere.\nAcceleration of electrons caused by unsteady magnetic reconnection. Credit: ESA/ATG medialab\n\"The data we analysed were taken as the Cluster spacecraft were in the trajectory of the jet launched from the site of magnetic reconnection and directed to Earth, so we could directly sample the plasma particles in situ and probe the properties of the jet.\"\nThe scientists noticed an interesting structure in this jet as it travelled towards Earth: it turned out not to be a single jet but two distinct ones, launched with a time difference of about 25 seconds. And, each of the two Earthward jets showed a finer structure, with the bulk velocity of plasma increasing in the leading part of the jet and decreasing in the following part.\n\"This is a textbook recipe for particle acceleration: in the part of the jet where velocity is rising, the magnetic field is compressed by the high-speed flow, and the magnetic field lines get close to one another,\" explains Andr\u00e9.\n\"This boosts the magnetic field and 'traps' the particles, forcing them to interact repeatedly with the magnetic field: eventually, this turns out to be a very efficient accelerator of electrons,\" he adds.\nThe study by Fu and his collaborators shows that, like in artificial accelerators, the acceleration of electrons in the magnetotail advances via a sequence of mechanisms. First, unsteady magnetic reconnection speeds up plasma particles in the jets. Then the magnetic field lines are compressed, accelerating the electrons via the betatron or Fermi acceleration mechanisms.\nWhile in artificial accelerators the first steps of the process must be induced by external electric and magnetic fields, in space the acceleration process is triggered by naturally occurring electric and magnetic fields within the plasma.\n\"In the tail of Earth's magnetosphere, the origin of the acceleration appears to be in the fine structure of the jets. We think that this structure arises because the magnetic reconnection is happening at an unsteady rate,\" says Fu.\nSuch an erratic rate of reconnection can be caused by temporal variability in the speed of the inflowing plasma that triggers the process, or by turbulence that develops directly in the magnetic reconnection site.\n\"Unsteady magnetic reconnection is a well-known phenomenon, but up until now nobody had studied it in relation to high-energy electrons,\" comments Fu.\n\"For the first time, our study proved that the two processes are intimately linked.\"\nThe scientists compared these data with observations of magnetic reconnection taking place at a uniform pace in the interplanetary solar wind, and confirmed that, without the unsteady rate of reconnection, electrons are not accelerated to high energies.\n\"We have finally grasped how exactly magnetic reconnection gives rise to high-energy electrons,\" comments Philippe Escoubet, Cluster Project Scientist at ESA.\n\"This will deepen our understanding of the behaviour of energetic particles in a variety of environments where unsteady reconnection takes place, from fusion plasma to places like the centre of our Galaxy or the chromosphere of stars.\n\"It will also improve our ability to predict space weather, since the electrons that are accelerated by unsteady reconnection feed the population of energetic particles in the Van Allen radiation belts.\"\nThe study presented here is based on data gathered by one of the spacecraft (C1) of ESA's Cluster mission on 23 August 2006.\nThe data were collected during and after a magnetic reconnection event in the tail of Earth's magnetosphere. Data analysis revealed that the reconnection, which proceeded at an unsteady rate, eventually resulted in accelerating electrons in the plasma to very high energies via two mechanisms: betatron and Fermi acceleration.\nThe betatron mechanism, in which a time-varying magnetic field is responsible for increasing the energy of the electrons, was originally described by Norwegian physicist Rolf Wider\u00f8e in 1928. This mechanism was also applied to artificial particle accelerators by American physicist Donald Kerst, who constructed one of the first machines to produce high-energy electrons on the ground.\nFermi acceleration, which was first suggested by Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi in 1949, is a mechanism whereby particles are energised by repeatedly bouncing off the turbulent magnetic field, which results in a net and substantial gain of energy. This may take place in the turbulent plasma associated with magnetic reconnection in the magnetotail.\nH. S. Fu, Yu. V. Khotyaintsev, A. Vaivads, A. Retin\u00f2 & M.

        "raw_content": "USC Shoah Foundation To Participate in Czech-Polish Seminar on Teaching with Testimony\nStaff from USC Shoah Foundation will gather with education leaders, teachers and other experts to explore the best practices of using filmed witness testimony in education in Ostrava, Czech Republic, on June 5.\nOstrava is located on the border of Czech Republic and Poland, and the seminar participants will hail from Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. The seminar, organized in partnership with the local PANT civic association, will offer them a unique opportunity to learn first-hand about the effects of using testimony in 21st-century classrooms. It will also convene a discussion about how practices across the region can be applied in different localities to address various educational challenges.\nThe seminar reflects the need and demand for greater regional cross-border cooperation and coordination in the field of education, said Martin \u0160mok, USC Shoah Foundation senior international training consultant based in Czech Republic.\n\u201cThe need stems not only from the shared history and shared locations in an area of ever-changing borderlines, but it also is rooted in the current political alliances and the existence of regional bodies such as the Visegrad group,\u201d \u0160mok said. \u201cDue to the course of World War II and the history of the Holocaust, Poland is a key element of this shared history. Conversations about presenting this shared history in a proper educational setting are much needed throughout the region.\u201d\nTeachers who have completed USC Shoah Foundation\u2019s Teaching with Testimony in the 21st Century program, in which teachers in Europe are trained on using testimony from the Visual History Archive in their own classrooms, will present the testimony-based resources and lessons they\u2019ve developed. The seminar participants will also begin to develop a multi-lingual interactive web resource containing VHA testimony clips relevant to the shared history of Czech Republic and Poland during World War II. The resource will be available on the PANT and USC Shoah Foundation websites.\nRepresenting USC Shoah Foundation at the seminar along with \u0160mok will be Andrea Sz\u00f6nyi and Monika Koszy\u0144ska (regional consultants in Hungary and Poland, respectively), Director of Education Kori Street and Educational Program Designer Claudia Wiedeman. The special envoy of the Czech government for Holocaust issues and the head of the Hungarian International Holocaust Remembrance Association (IHRA) delegation were also invited.\nComcast 2015: \"Notes of Survival\"",

Your middle finger, which is also the finger people flip others off with, is the mount of Saturn; a symbol of misfortune.\nHotaru had a lot of misfortune in her life. In the manga, she was killed as a child and made into a cyborg by her estranged father, in the anime she was almost killed. Later, when Tomoe made a deal with Master Pharoah Ninety and Mistress Nine, Hotaru was completely weakened and possessed. She has no friends at school, she stays at home in her fathers dark and dingy mansion and she's generally sick and weak.\nIf this isn't bad luck, what is?\nFurthermore, in certain aspects such as stars, grids and points on your hand, Saturn can be a symbol of power.

He collaborates with dance, theatre, art/installation, and film.\nHe creates immersive work that explores the perception of time and place through sound by building an expansive sonic atmosphere. Simon takes particular care to tailor his compositions and performances to each individual context.

        "raw_content": "Editor\u2019s note: Volker Hirsch is the co-founder of Blue Beck and Quantified Ventures as well as co-founder of Tech North Advocates. Here, he shares his opinions on why he thinks Britain should vote to remain in the EU at the referendum on 23rd June 2016.\nThe UK faces its most important decision in a long time and it pains me to see so many lies and misinformed myths being flogged in the media to disguise the only choice I feel is right for the country, its people and economy, which is to vote \u201cRemain\u201d.\nThe EU may have its flaws, just like all governments, institutions, clubs, heck, families have. However, only because we do not think it\u2019s perfect, we do not just leave, say FIFA, do we? We work with it to make it better.\nThe truth of the matter is that the EU has and is bringing a lot more positives to the people of the UK than negatives.\nThe most important reason is access: access to customers of UK goods and \u2013 perhaps more importantly \u2013 services, access to skills and workers and access to the largest and most powerful market in the world and one to which more than 50% of British exports go to. The Netherlands imports more British goods than all of China!\nI am an entrepreneur in the digital sector. Tech is the largest growth sector for our economy and not a single one of its most celebrated companies, the so-called unicorns (companies with more than $1 billion market cap) wants to leave because we require open access.\nThe only argument I have heard for leave is to \u201cget control back.\u201d This simply won\u2019t happen when quitting the EU. Norway and Switzerland, most often quoted as an alternative, have to comply with most of the EU\u2019s laws, allow free movement of workers AND pay almost as much as the UK does today. And they have no say in it.\nThe alleged lack of democracy is not true: the EU works with a parliament, a council comprised of elected representatives from the member states and an executive arm, the commission, which is exactly the same like a government \u2013 which is not elected either.\nIt\u2019s pretty much the same as everything else. So rather than bemoaning some shortcomings, let\u2019s work with the EU to tackle those. The alternatives are dire: no one strikes a trade deal within a few years. Just try and find examples. There are none.\nSwitzerland does not have a trade deal with the US. It also does not have a trade deal with the EU covering services (including banking). The same will be the case for the UK (where 65% of value-add comes from the service sector, including financial services). There is not only a risk that the outcome would be quite dire for our economy, it is a certainty!\nFinally, let\u2019s not forget that the EU\u2019s motto is \u201cUnited in Diversity\u201d: don\u2019t believe that the French want to lose their identity to the Germans or the Italians to the Belgians. They love their own cultural identity just as much as Britain loves its own.\nThe world opens up ever more. Let us tackle its challenges in concert with our European neighbours rather than cuddling up on our national sofa and hope that it will all be good. We are better than that!\nWe can do it and we are #StrongerIn!",

        "raw_content": "Wrangling Fictional Characters\nI've begun to write the sequel to The City Darkens, and I won't say very much about that specifically, since it is one my rules never to talk about a story before it's finished. But what I will say is that I decided to go with a different narrator than Myadar. Ginna has lived most of her life in the Undergrunnsby--I felt like Myadar's story really only showed one perspective on the city, and that I needed to have the next story flip that and look at it from a completely different angle. So this has presented two unexpected challenges.\nFirst, Ginna has a distinct voice, which is great, in a distinct dialect, which I can hear clearly in my head most of the time. At first, I had a real struggle because Ginna kept insisting on switching tenses and telling her story sometimes in present tense and sometimes in past tense. Eventually I figured out how to handle this: she'd tell the events of the story in past tense, and anything she considered to be a constant truth she'd tell in present tense. Now the only trouble I'm having is with some of her to-be verbs, which I can't seem to find a consistent way of conjugating. I'm going to have to study up on existing dialects. The nice thing about creating your own fantasy world is that you can take liberties when you invent a dialect. You're not required to represent how real people talk in a certain region of the real world. But you do have to be consistent.\nThe second unexpected challenge is that Ginna is such a strong personality right from the get-go. I feel like she's just using me to get her story out. (Stephen King attributed an idea to Native Americans--I don't think he was specific about the tribe and I don't remember where I read this--that stories stalk the writer until the writer is ready to tell them, or some such. It's like that.) Actually, a few times it's been like she slapped me upside the head and said, \"Hey! What kind of ninny do you think I am? I'm doing this instead.\" And sometimes I don't really like what she does, but there's no way around it. She's going to do things that way, because that's who she is. For one thing she can be incredibly and remorselessly violent. Not all of the time, but basically she's got a lot of rage from some of the experiences she's been through. I've written before about violence, and how ambivalent I am about representing it in fiction. I look at George R. R. Martin's stories, which granted I've only experienced through the show, Game of Thrones, and I think he goes too far. Don't get me wrong, I'm addicted to the show. But I really could do without some of the images it has put in my head, and it disturbs me when people come to the defense of its violence with reasons like, \"It's historically accurate.\" Westeros doesn't exist, people. It never did. There can be no historical accuracy there. And if you're referring to a depiction of medieval England, let me tell you that the ways in which GoT is historically inaccurate far outweigh the ways in which is may be accurate--for instance, there's no Catholic Church, and you really can't talk about the history of England without including the Catholic Church.\nNot exactly a Catholic priest.\nOkay, end history-nerd side rant.\nAnyway, the point I was actually trying to get to is that since I've begun dealing with Ginna, it's caused me to wonder if GRRM might actually not have really planned to be quite so brutal when he started writing. Maybe his characters slapped him upside the head and said, \"HEY. WE ARE JUST THAT EVIL.\" Or something. Then again, one of the people I watch GoT with claims that when GRRM was a kid, he had pet turtles, and used to write stories about the turtles torturing each other and plotting to murder each other. So quite possibly he's just that much of a sadist. Who knows?\nI'm actually not complaining about Ginna's domination over the story. It's quite wonderful when characters take over and the story grows from them. I'm a pantser, though. I can see how if you had a whole outline written, characters slapping you upside the head and demanding that the story go in a direction you never intended might become a problem. You'd get quite lost without your map.\nHave you ever experienced a character running loose from your control? What was that like for you? Did you enjoy it, or were they a royal pain in the ass? How did that story turn out?\nLabels: characters, fantasy, Game of Thrones, George R. R.

Which is why it\u2019s all the more notable when they are.\nIf you listen to Matthew Connor\u2018s latest album, a cinematic masterpiece, you\u2019ll hear a clean, well-produced mix of instrumentals that accompany his voice. It\u2019s no surprise he composes soundtracks for films. But if you watch him live on a wind-chilled Tuesday night at T.T. The Bears, or see his newest music video, you\u2019ll see a different side.\n\u201cMidnight Blue,\u201d which he premiered at the show, is an eerie, immersive experience. It feels like walking into the haunted house of an opera singer cast away from the choir for being just a bit too daring and subversive.\nT.T. The Bears isn\u2019t quite the haunted house in which I would have liked to see Connor perform. If you don\u2019t know it, it\u2019s a cozy, intimate venue with a bar the size of the stage. It was one of the few under 21+ shows the crooner has played. Dressed in a stylish, burgundy blazer, misshaped by his guitar strap and complemented with his disheveled hair, Connor looked sharp and professional, but loose.\n\u201cHey guys, just tuning my guitar,\u201d he said sheepishly. \u201cAnyone have nightmares? I have a lot of nightmares, don\u2019t have a story about it, I just have a lot,\u201d he mumbled just before playing.\nHis music followed his style of dress \u2014 his sultry, smooth voice contrasted the distorted instrumentals. He played professionally, but felt accessible. Just as he responds to almost every YouTube comment on his award-nominated video, he made sure to respond to every quip made by an audience member.\nThe only problem with the show was that it was only 40 minutes. It would be great to see Connor play a much longer set. He certainly has enough songs to pull it off.\nIf you haven\u2019t already, turn the lights off, crank up the volume, and check out his latest music video here.\nMatthew Connor's voice\nIncredible music video\nNot many people came\nconcert reviewmatthew connormidnight blueT.T.

        "raw_content": "Rui Gil\n\"Experience is an Invention\" H.H.\nArt, as a new Epistemology\nTo live, is something we all must learn, but no one can teach us. This old saying, highlights one of the most singular traits of human condition. That we are forever amateurs. It's impossible to learn everything, because everyday, there is more to learn. Knowledge is something in constant mutation. Things that we've learned become obsolete, others gain new colors, recombine, change... Living is like wandering through the corridors of the The library of Babel, an infinite space with all the possible variations of knowledge.\nBut, what is knowledge? How do we gain knowledge? These questions have been asked by philosophers, and scientists for centuries. Since the greeks, joining Kant, into our cybernetic days, many were the epistemologies that tried to answer these questions. Although the answers are many, no one doubts that Science is a powerful way of knowing, but it could be a little more difficult to find someone who can say the same thing about Art. Arguably, the current definition of Art, is the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others, and most people don't see that as knowledge.\nTo see Art and Science as two separate things, is a recent historical illusion. We don't have to go back very far, to find a time where Art and Science were one and the same thing. We only have to think about Leonardo da Vinci, to realize that in the Renaissance, this distinction was non-existing. Gregory Bateson, said, if you get your epistemology confused, you go psychotic. To see things separate, that really are one, (like Man and Nature), allows Man to destroy its environment, and by consequence, to destroy itself. So, its not hard to see, that this separation between Art and Science is also the result of the current epistemological confusion.\nIts common to say, that science is not a noun, but a verb, because science is not a static structure of knowledge, but a process in permanent flow. This process is called the scientific method and it is mainly deductive. It all about measure, predict and prove. All begins with experience through senses or instruments, then in the formulation of hypotheses to explain the regularities of observations, then the deduction of predictions that support those hypotheses, that are tested and verified to construct what we call \u00abnatural laws\u00bb. These \u00abnatural laws\u00bb are the inductive part of the process.\nThis process is highly effective, and it has produced a huge advance in knowledge in the last centuries. But the successes were so many, that they created the positivist illusion. This illusion believes that there is nothing that science cannot know, and there is no valid knowledge outside the scientific method. This is an illusion for several reasons, but mainly, because the scientific method has limits. There are theoretical limits on what we can measure, predict or prove. These limitations are fundamental, in a sense that, they don't depend on technological advances, but create a knowledge horizon, that we cannot go beyond. So, we must ask ourselves: Can we expand this knowledge horizon, by changing the method that we use to acquire knowledge? What role can Art have in this change?\nWe have to realize that the world image projected by the scientific knowledge has been suffering a radical transformation in the last few decades. We can say that the paradigm suffered a mutation, that has created the space for Art, to stand as a valid way of knowing. This, because we have come from a reductionist and materialistic view, to one of emergentism and creativity.\nThe reductionist view of the world, is an historical heritage from Newton that saw the Universe as one gigantic clock. To understand this machine, we only had to understand the various parts. So, life was seen as nothing more than biology, that by itself, was nothing more than chemistry, that was nothing more than physics, that was nothing more that arrangements of the fundamental particle, that... was never found. To a reductionist, a plane is nothing more than the sum of its parts, ignoring the obvious. There is an infinite way of organizing the parts, but only one that allows to fly!\nEmergentism, states that a collective whole is more than the sum of its parts. This \"more\" is information. It is information that allows us to make the distinction between a plane and a pile of junk. It is information contained in the organization of the different parts. Diamond and graphite are both made of carbon. One is hard and transparent, the other is black and fragile. No physicist could look at a single carbon atom, and deduce the properties of the whole, because these properties depend on a particular organization. That's why collective wholes, cannot be reduced to their parts, because they have properties that can only be found in a particular organization. Because living things, change organization through time, they have still more information in their temporal dynamics. The more complex, the more information it has.\nThis new view, reveals the most obvious thing. That the Universe is not a static machine, but is fundamentally creative. That life is a process of autopoeisis, and that by organizing itself, creates continuously new properties. These actual properties depend on the process history, and chance, so determinism is not the rule, but a particular case. This is the same to say that the future is wide open and unpredictable, and we can never know what properties will actually be created. Now, we can start to see a relationship between Art and this new worldview, because Art, has never been reductionist. We dont appreciate a Mozart concerto, by analyzing each and every one of the notes, or the painting of Mona Lisa, by analyzing color pigments in the canvas. Every work of art is a collective whole by nature, that focus on the organization of parts, to express meaning and beauty.\nIf we believe the positivist view, than we believe that nothing can be learned from Art, because knowledge is propositional. Knowledge comes from experience and reason, and it is expressed in facts, in the language of mathematics and logic. This is a sensible definition, but quite limited. With this definition, to know how to ride a bike, or to know how to play an instrument, is not considered knowledge, because there is no objective set of facts that could describe it. The focus is on the know-that (parts) instead of the know-how (wholes). This is the reductionist view applied to epistemology. Facts are like the \u00abfundamental particle\u00bb of an materialistic and objective world, ignoring the new properties coming from the organization of this knowledge in whole coherent structures.\nLuckily positivism is not the only epistemology to choose from. It is quite interesting that Kant, in his book, the Critic of Judgment said that, the most fundamental aesthetic act is the selection of a fact. Because this implies that aesthetics is at the core of knowing, and that objectivity is an illusion, something that a constructivist would support. The argument for the illusion of objectivity is simple. If our senses are limited, (even with all the measurement instruments and technology), what we can know is not \u00abreality\u00bb but a subjective representation of it. A metaphor for this would be, somebody that puts a videocamera outside its house, connected to the TV, and looking at the TV said, we're looking at \u00abreality\u00bb. The TV is not \u00abreality\u00bb, but only the representation of our senses. There is no \u00abreal\u00bb objectivity. What we call objectivity is nothing more than a shared subjectivity with other people, or as Howard Bloom said: Reality is a Shared Hallucination.\nSo, if we cannot separate the process of knowing, from our own subjective world, and cannot separate the know-that from the know-how, we start to see that Art, is not really a new epistemology, but only one that we have forgotten in our current positivistic confusion. We can start to realize that the creative process is at the center of the process of knowing. It is true that scientists as individuals are very creative people, but Science as a whole is not, because it keeps focusing on parts instead of wholes, and the result is the excessive fragmentation and specialization of Science. To support Art as a valid epistemology is not saying that it should replace what we know today as the scientific method, but to bring to the process of knowing the unique qualities of the creative process. These qualities are the ability to integrate, connect, organize, create coherent structures of meaning, beauty and knowledge among different levels and domains, that can relate to our own shared subjective world.\nHumberto Maturana and Francisco Varela, in their book \u00abThe Tree of Knowledge\u00bb shared most of these ideas, but with a deeper view. To them, not only the Universe is fundamentally creative, but this creative process is a cognitive one. There is a duality between the know-that and the know-how. When we construct our own subjective world of know-that, this changes how we can act in the world of know-how. This circularity between action and experience is common to all life forms, and that's why they say \u00abAll doing is knowing, and all knowing is doing\u00bb. The process of knowing is not restricted to the human mind, but is pervasive in the life process itself. So the process of knowing, creativity and life, are one and the same.\nWhen we look at the beautiful hydrodynamic shape of a shark, or the ultra quiet feathers of an owl, we realize that these shapes are knowledge that Nature has \u00abcrystallized\u00bb in living things adapted to their environments. When we see a paramecium swimming in a sugar gradient, we marvel how such a simple life form, \u00abknow\u00bb how to do that. This process of cognition has accelerated with humans, and exploded in our cybernetic days. So what we call mind can no longer be something limited to the human brain, but something that extends through circuits and relationships, outside our bodies connecting with a bigger Mind, in which the human mind is only a subsystem. Mind becomes the whole evolutive structure itself. As Gregory Bateson said: \u00abThis larger Mind is comparable to God and is perhaps what some people mean by \"God,\" but it is still immanent in the total interconnected social system and planetary ecology\u00bb\nThis image represents the \u00abTree Of Life\u00bb. Its a work of art, that covers the wall of the Wat Xieng Thong temple, in Luangprabang, Laos. The myth of the Tree Of Life, is common to many ancient civilizations, and is a metaphor, for the ascension of complexity of life forms, from earth to heaven, or the path to God. One, does not need to stretch the imagination, to see in this image the knowledge of evolution or that everything is connected, centuries before Darwin or quantum mechanics. It is a structure that diversifies but keeps its whole coherence intact. The kabbalah used the myth of the Tree of Life as a model of creation, and it is no coincidence, that the Tree of Life from where Adam ate the forbidden fruit, was the tree of knowledge of good and evil... As we keep wandering through the Total Library, we will find Borges own words: \u00abthe task of art is to transform what is continuously happening to us, to transform all these things into symbols, into music, into something which can last in memory.\u00bb",

Whether police, nurse, doctor, security guard, garden boy, working at border gate, don\u2019t go to work. This crisis we are facing affects us all.\u201d\nHe said they would not leave the Union Buildings until Zuma was no longer president.\n\u201cWe are coming to the Union Buildings tomorrow and we are not apologetic about it, we are ready for everything.\u201d\n\u2018Mugabe of South Africa\u2019\n\u201cThis man is like Mugabe in South Africa. Some of us have suffered for this democracy. I feel Nelson Mandela, wherever he is, he is upset with Zuma, the (national executive committee) NEC and ANC for not exercising authority.\u201d\nMaumela said that they have written to the NEC pleading that Zuma be removed immediately, as well as calling on Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa to not be threatened or ashamed to take authority and lead.\n\u201cRamaphosa should not be apologetic and be afraid to ask the president to step down\u201d, said Maumela.\nHe added that ANC members should be supporting one another in defeating those who are protecting and keeping Zuma in office.\nTaking a swipe at \u2018corrupt ministers\u2019\n\u201cThose people are corrupt ministers. Comrade Cyril, during his campaign, promised us that he will root out corruption. He must start now and exercise those powers.\u201d\nMeanwhile, the ANC in the greater Johannesburg region distanced itself from what it referred to as \u201cbogus ANC Johannesburg members\u201d.\n\u201cThe African National Congress in the Greater Johannesburg Region has noted persons who are, under the guise of being members of the ANC Joburg Region, calling for the immediate removal of President Jacob Zuma or a \u2018National Shut Down\u2019,\u201d said regional spokesperson Jolidee Matongo.\n\u201cWe call on any member(s) who may have any information on these individuals to please contact the region in order for a disciplinary process to be instituted against them immediately.\u201d\nThe SACP in Gauteng also distanced itself from the planned protest action.\u201dWe further distance ourselves from the man who claims to hold a position in the SACP who took part in the press conference. The man does not represent the SACP and any of its structures. In fact the man is not known to any structures of the SACP and therefore doesn\u2019t have a mandate to speak on our behalf,\u201d said SACP provincial secretary Jacob Mamabolo.\nThe SACP said it would conduct a thorough investigation into the identity of the man who claimed to represent the party.\u201dWhilst we reaffirm the principled and profound decision taken by the Central Committee calling on the ANC President Jacob Zuma to resign or be recalled by the ANC, we believe that this matter is well within the purview of our national leadership and it remain seized with the matter.\u201d\nThe ANC NEC have been called to a special meeting in Pretoria on Monday afternoon, where it is believed that the agenda will be about Zuma\u2019s exit as president.\nANC Gauteng spokesperson Motalatale Modiba said the provincial ANC reiterated its stance that the ANC NEC was able to resolve \u201cthe current leadership issue decisively in a manner that demonstrates that the ANC has put the interest of South Africa first\u201d.\nHe said the provincial structures condemned and distanced itself from the actions of the so-called \u2018Zuma Must Go Group\u2019.\n\u201cThe ANC calls on its members, supporters and society at large not to heed this irresponsible and reckless call by these individuals who have no mandate to speak on behalf of the ANC or any of its members and structures,\u201d Modiba said.\n\u201cWe have further noted that certain individuals alleged to be ANC members, clad in ANC regalia, took part in an unmandated press briefing by the individuals in question earlier today. The Province has given a directive to its regions to embark on the process of verifying their membership status and to institute disciplinary actions for any transgression and violation of the ANC code of conduct.\u201d",

ISSN 1475-7516\nOfficial URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2008/09/022\nWe re-examine the production of gravitational waves by bubble collisions during a first-order phase transition. The spectrum of the gravitational radiation is determined by numerical simulations using the 'envelope approximation'. We find that the spectrum rises as f3.0 for small frequencies and decreases as f-1.0 for high frequencies. Thus, the fall-off at high frequencies is significantly slower than previously stated in the literature. This result has direct impact on detection prospects for gravity waves originating from a strong first-order electroweak phase transition at space-based interferometers, such as LISA and BBO. In addition, we observe a slight dependence of the peak frequency on the bubble wall velocity.",

Mary tutors students weekly at her neighborhood schools, serves on the Boards of the Julia Green PTO and the Nashville Aquatic Club, and attends Fellowship Bible Church.

I share Stand\u2019s mission and vision and definition of excellence. As a Board member, I will work tirelessly to ensure that an action plan and support system are in place for our children in underperforming schools and that all parents have access to the school of their choice. It is not excellent until every child has the opportunity to succeed in a high-performing public school.\nWhy Stand for Children Endorses Mary Pierce- In Mary Pierce, we found a solutions-oriented candidate with a clearly articulated vision. Pierce recognizes that schools should meet the unique needs of every child in Nashville, and that parents should have high-quality options \u2013 zoned, magnet, and charter - in choosing a school for their child. Pierce would also bring a sense of urgency to improving the lowest-performing schools, most of which fall outside of District 8. For these reasons, we believe Mary Pierce is the clear choice.\n\u201cMary Pierce has demonstrated to me the passion and practicality to recognize and support what is working very well in Metro Nashville Public Schools and challenge the areas where significant improvement is needed. We don\u2019t always agree, but I am confident she understands the issues, respects differing opinions and will work tirelessly so that my daughter and all kids in Metro have high performing schools and the opportunity to excel.\u201d - Maria Salas, Stand Member",

I noticed some others posted good luck wishes for other contestants as well, but none mentioned they were from other countries so I am guessing the majority if not all were from Moldova.\nI also wonder if Eva happened to see the posts while reading the page or if someone told her she had fans posting messages for her on the contest's page. And whether she even knew she had fans in those countries following her progress in the contest. I guess if she didn't know before, she does now! :D\nEva backstage at Voice Kids 8)\nThe auditions were several weeks ago, so she already knows if she made it past the auditions, she just can't tell anyone.\nThe Voice Kids?

I just spent a few minutes on The Best Voice fb page and I couldn't actually see any official results. I did see Garth's congratulatory post on Eva's page so then I figured she had won. I couldn't post there because I am not a friend.\nLike you, Charlie, I would like to see her performance, as well.\nBruce, you should be able to post under her post that I did. I am not her \"friend\" either, but I am following her page, so you might have to click on Follow. I didn't want to send her a \"friend\" request because she doesn't really know me and I don't know if she is comfortable accepting fans as friends.\nThere are some posts on her page that can't be posted under because they originate from others, but the one I posted under should be open to followers anyways.\nGarth C wrote: Bruce, you should be able to post under her post that I did.

Maybe some sort of glitch?\nGood point about the friends, I didn't check how many friends she had, so maybe I will try to get on the list.\nI have been keeping an eye out for new videos for her, but haven't seen any yet.\nby bruce 34 on Tue Feb 09, 2016 12:35 am\nhttp://voice.md/rezultatele-finale/\nThese results would indicate that Eva came second in her age group unless someone has something else to the contrary.\nStill searching for videos .........\nThat's really odd, Bruce! On that Facebook post she made that I posted under, she has a trophy beside her name at the top and it says \"celebrating victory\" which is why I congratulated her. Of course, my comments still stand that her fans are proud of her. Some others were also congratulating her.\nThis is also still posted on her fan club site on VK (translated):\nThat came at the end of the contest \"The Best Voice\". Are you wondering what is the result at our Eve? We are glad to inform you that the best voices of Moldova - is Eva Timush ! With it we heartily congratulate! !!\nHowever, the results in that link don't seem to concur with that. This isn't a repeat of the Miss Universe gaffe, is it?\nGarth, I think a lot of our problems with this are associated with the fact we don't speak the language. I've been using Google Translate for years now and I get a bit frustrated because word for word translations are not precise. I, too, congratulated her but stopped short of actually saying she was the winner because I hadn't seen anything official. I do, however, feel the same as you in that she is a brilliant singer and am proud of her as well.\nThat link does, however, appear to be official as it is the site of The Best Voice.\nOn another note, it seems to me that she may be entering the third version of Russia's \"The Voice Children\" so that will be interesting to follow. It also looks as though Maxim Fadeev, the winning mentor of the first two Voice Children has been replaced. Maybe he got too big for the chair lol.",

        "raw_content": "It would have been more tactical for Duterte to try to negotiate the best deal for his country with both China and the US.\nDuring his four-day visit to Beijing last week, Duterte confirmed his country's pivot to China, and made headlines when he declared a separation with the us, his nation's treaty ally since 1951.\nApart from verbally insulting Obama, Duterte has ordered the cutting of most joint military exercises with Washington, the country's oldest defense ally.\nOn Tuesday, an opinion poll showed Filipinos still trust the United States far more than China. \"Well, Americans of Filipino ancestry\". Despite the criticism from the USA, as well as the UN, Human Rights Watch and other rights groups, Duterte - nicknamed \"The Punisher\" for his harsh measures against drug dealers and traffickers back in the days when he was mayor of Davao city - vowed to continue his crackdown throughout his entire term, saying that drugs have infected \"every nook and corner\" of the Philippines.\nDuterte said he replied that the Philippines won't budge \"because we won in the court.'\" In a landmark ruling in July, an worldwide tribunal in The Hague invalidated China's historic claims in the South China Sea and ruled that the Chinese government violated the Filipinos' right to fish in Scarborough, which it declared a traditional fishing ground. Duterte, however, said these joint drills were the last ones and promised to oust U.S. troops from his country, sparking further \"head-scratching\" in Washington. \"What would be my point in insisting on the ownership of that body of water when the world is exploding?\"\nThe visit came against a backdrop of deteriorating China-Philippines ties due to the South China Sea arbitration case unilaterally initiated against China by his predecessor Benigno Aquino III. \"Your fish is my fish\".\n\"In the past and until I became president, we always follow what the United States would give the cue. We are still vetting a few\", he said.\nThere was plenty of apparent goodwill spilling forth from Chinese state television and off its official newspaper's editorial pages. Shui responded: \"We never forget you\".\nThe leaders did not discuss whether China would allow Filipino fishermen to return to Scarborough Shoal, Liu said, an outcome likely to disappoint the Southeast Asian country.\nConsidering that he himself acknowledged that he can not afford to break the \"diplomatic and social ties\" due to the presence of hundreds of thousands of Filipinos in the US, President Duterte can not afford to turn his back and renounce US-PH ties completely. \"Japan will probably be dealing with the Philippines directly and not be too wary of recent comments over the weekend\", he said in an e-mail interview yesterday. \"Now he's popular enough to shape public sentiment and ameliorate opponents, but that's not guaranteed a year from now\".\nFollowing a string of attacks against the U.S. and President Barack Obama, Duterte announced during his state visit in Beijing his \"separation\" from the USA and alignment with China and Russian Federation. While he remains optimistic, Goldberg said \"some of the language we've heard is inconsistent with that friendship\". Duterte said he responded by saying, \"It's OK. we'll discuss the award that we got someday and we won't get out of this document. we won in the ownership\".\n\"I have nothing against Americans\", he said. \"But this is a measured, Machiavellian, pragmatic leader\". This appears to be a major reason for Duterte's tilt toward China.",

She also leaves three grandchildren (Kevin, Courtney and Carlie) for whom she had unfailing admiration and love.\nEven during her short illness, Mary had a community of family and friends, across Canada and the USA and especially in Saint John and Saint Andrews, who demonstrated through thoughtful visits and heartfelt messages, cards and gifts, that they will miss her dearly.\nMary will always be remembered for her big beautiful blue eyes and the warmth of her friendly smile. Some of her favorite things in life were to travel, play bridge, golf and share a glass of wine. While the visits on her front porch with wonderful family and friends have come to an end, the memories and stories shared will never be forgotten and were a cherished part of her last few months. She lived a full life with few regrets and smiled even on her last day.\nThe family would like to express their admiration and appreciation for the many doctors who provided treatment and, in particular, the St Stephen Palliative Care team who demonstrated incredible compassion and professionalism while she was in their care.\nFor all those who knew and loved Mary; a Celebration of her life will take place at Kingsbrae Garden, Saint Andrews on Monday, July 23, from 2 \u2013 5 p.m.\nCondolences can be expressed through Humphreys\u2019 Funeral Home in St Stephen and through donations to the charity of your choice by visiting the funeral home website www.humphreysfh.com.\nPrevious articleCANAVAN, Ella Margaret\nNext articleLegalizing Cannabis: Contrasting New Brunswick and Nova Scotia",

        "raw_content": "A harvest of song\nHappy reunion in Salzburg: Liz Mohn with Rachel Frenkel (left) and Julia Novikova (right).\nEven outside the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d International Singing Competition, Liz Mohn finds ways to promote talented young opera singers. As she travels the world in her role as vice-chairwoman of the Bertelsmann Stiftung Executive Board, she makes an effort to get together with former contestants when their paths cross \u2013 as they did a few years ago in Salzburg.\nSalzburg, back in August 2012: Three weeks ago, Julia Novikova was singing in London at Pl\u00e1cido Domingo\u2019s invitation. Now, she sits on a hotel terrace in Salzburg, giving an interview. At this year\u2019s Salzburg Festival, the Russian soprano won praise as the magical Queen of the Night in Alexandra Liedtke\u2019s revival of The Labyrinth \u2013 Part Two of The Magic Flute. It is Novikova\u2019s second consecutive engagement at the festival. Just 28 years old, she is already celebrated in opera circles as an exceptional talent.\nBorn in St. Petersburg and now making her way onto the world stage, this young singer owes her discovery in part to a woman sitting just yards away from her in the hotel restaurant. Liz Mohn is actually in town for the Salzburg Trilogue, where she is joining 29 scholars, business leaders and politicians to discuss the topic of sustainable economic growth. But while the other participants linger over lunch, the vice-chairwoman of the Bertelsmann Stiftung Executive Board has excused herself. It has to do with another Bertelsmann Stiftung project, one that is dear to her heart: the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d International Singing Competition. Three former prizewinners are here in Salzburg, and despite her busy schedule Mohn won\u2019t miss the opportunity to have a quick visit.\nNovikova is one of them. Mohn embraces her warmly: \u201cIt\u2019s so good to see you! How are you?\u201d she asks, inviting the singer to join her on a sofa in the hotel\u2019s winter garden. Ever since the Russian soprano won the 2007 People\u2019s Choice Award in G\u00fctersloh, Mohn and her Bertelsmann Stiftung team have followed the soprano\u2019s career.\nPromoting young opera singers\n\u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d gave Novikova\u2019s career a crucial boost. She made her first contacts with agents and a short time later she sang the Queen of the Night at the Frankfurt Opera. Engagements followed in Vienna, Hamburg and Berlin. After her meeting with Mohn, Novikova returns, visibly excited \u2013 their conversation has inspired her. \u201cAs an opera singer, sometimes I ask myself: What am I doing here? Is this a meaningful career? After all, we singers aren\u2019t discovering a cure for cancer. We don\u2019t even bake bread,\u201d she says. \u201cBut Mrs. Mohn pointed out that nobody can live without music. She said music can even help people recover after having a stroke. Hearing that from such an important woman made me very happy. At moments like this, I know why I stand on the opera stage.\u201d\nHired on the spot\nMohn is also meeting with Rachel Frenkel, who took sixth place at \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d in 2009. The Israeli too then went on to her first major engagement when Dominique Meyer, director of the Vienna State Opera and chairman of the jury, hired the mezzo-soprano on the spot. \u201cThat was a huge opportunity,\u201d Frenkel says. One she made the most of, later performing in New York, Budapest and Tokyo. She now travels the world with her composer husband and their two-year-old daughter Ruth. \u201cI\u2019m happy that my family can always be with me,\u201d she says. Last year, during her debut at the Salzburg Festival, she sent Mohn a postcard. \u201cI was so delighted to be there, and I wanted to share that feeling with her,\u201d the singer explains. The \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d founder took the time to write back. \u201cI could tell how proud she is of my success,\u201d Frenkel says. \u201cShe takes it very seriously.\u201d\nBorn in Israel, Rachel Frenkel placed sixth in the 2009 \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d competition. Dominique Meyer, director of the Vienna State Opera, immediately hired the mezzo-soprano.\nA winning second attempt\nAnother voice that moves Liz Mohn is that of Michael Volle. It was in 1991 when the baritone sang his way to second place in G\u00fctersloh. Now, living in Switzerland, he still remembers just how nervous he was: \u201cIt was my second time participating. I had also competed in 1989, when the Iron Curtain was coming down, which resulted in a wave of high-level performers such as Ren\u00e9 Pape sweeping through. Those of us from the West had a hard time measuring up and I went away empty-handed, although I was allowed to return in 1991. A flock of agents and directors were there, and we were being accompanied by an orchestra \u2013 so my knees were knocking.\u201d After the prizewinners performed in concert, he gave Mohn a very wobbly handshake.\nVolle now sits beside Liz Mohn in a hotel. \u201cI\u2019ve learned that celebrities are just people too,\u201d he admits. \u201cA week ago, I stood on the stage for the first time with Pl\u00e1cido Domingo. For a moment, I was frozen with awe. But you have to put that aside, otherwise you can\u2019t do your job.\u201d That wasn\u2019t the first lesson the baritone learned. \u201cAfter \u2018Neue Stimmen\u2019, I met an agent, who promised me everything under the sun,\u201d he remembers. \u201cThat\u2019s dangerous, particularly for young singers. You\u2019re living in a dream world, and a rude awakening awaits you. But it has to come sometime, since this wonderful business also has its share of problems and pitfalls\u201d (Michael Volle). Fortunately, he managed to navigate around them. He made his debut in Bayreuth in 2007 and sang in Seville, Zurich and Berlin.\nVolle advises up-and-coming opera singers to enter as many competitions as they can. \u201cIt gave me greater confidence onstage,\u201d he says. \u201cAlso, it gives you a sense of proportion. You see that you\u2019re not the only talented singer in the world. Competition can be very educational.\u201d The singer also entered the famous Cardiff Singer of the World competition, and he still draws on that experience. On the other hand, he\u2019s glad that he no longer feels obliged to take every opportunity and accept every offer. \u201cThis profession is hard on the family,\u201d he admits. \u201cMy first daughter was born shortly after \u2018Neue Stimmen.\u2019 I could only ask myself: How am I going to manage all these responsibilities? Now everything is easier. Thanks to my success, sometimes I can say no. I spend a lot of time with my children and I enjoy every minute of it.\u201d In 2012 the singer switched sides for the first time, serving on the jury of a singing competition. \u201cMany similar events have declined in quality,\u201d he observes, \u201cbut \u2018Neue Stimmen\u2019 is still regarded internationally as a pivotal competition. Of course, people like Liz Mohn are crucial to that success. Her involvement is of inestimable value. I sincerely hope she continues for a long time.\u201d\nCONTINUE with \u201cThe Power of Music\u201d \u2013 A Musical Life\nCasually turned out, baritone Michael Volle enjoys the summer weather in Salzburg.",

        "title": "Strand's Simply Tips: WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY: Jason King, Author",
        "raw_content": "Jason King, Author\nVALCORIA: CHILDREN OF THE CRYSTAL STAR\nJason King has been creating the world of Valcoria since he was 14. He recently published VALCORIA: CHILDREN OF THE CRYSTAL STAR, a unique fantasy set in a 19th century world without dragons, knights, or wizards. King appreciates villains and his stories revolve round them. He likes writing \u201cexciting stories with lots of action, magic, and drama.\u201d He believes readers will follow a story if they are invested in the characters.\nWhen he\u2019s not working or writing, King enjoys spending time with his wife and four children. He likes watching movies and playing table-top role-playing games. He has just completed a manuscript that is Part 2 of his first published novel THE LURE OF FOOLS.\nQ: What inspired you to write VALCORIA: CHILDREN OF THE CRYSTAL STAR? Where/how did you conceive of the concept? Would you type VALCORIA as fantasy?\nJason King: I\u2019ve actually been working on the Valcoria world, and story since I was fourteen, so I\u2019m sure there are a lot of movies, games, anime, comics, and authors that have influenced its development. I would class VALCORIA as a fantasy, but not the usual dragons, knights and wizards fantasy. I\u2019d class it closer to flintlock fantasy.\nQ: How do you create believability in the fantasy world you build? Is believability important?\nJason King: I think it is, and I think the way to achieve that is through the characters. If readers can relate, even just a little to a hero or villain, they are much more likely to stay invested and engaged in the story.\nQ: A reviewer mentions that you shift point of view from one character to another. Why? Did this shifting help to develop your characters? Or to tell the story?\nJason King: When I first wanted to write for a career, it was screenplays and I spent a lot of time learning that format. So I guess some of the \u201cscene switching\u201d device used in writing movies carried over to my novels. Also, Robert Jordan is one of my influences, and he employs a lot of character P.O.V. changes in his narratives, which I like. I like to get the story from different angles.\nQ: Reviewers claim your book is different from the typical \u201cepic fantasy.\u201d Do you agree? How is it different? How is it typical?\nJason King: I do agree. Like I said earlier, it\u2019s not the usual elves, dwarves, knights, and fairies that people always associate with fantasy. The setting for VALCORIA is not medieval. Rather, the story takes place in more of an 1800\u2019s kind of world, and part of the plot involves a return of ancient technologies that are futuristic. I hope it isn\u2019t typical, but there are elements of supernatural powers and destiny that will resonate with fans of traditional fantasy.\nQ: How important is the concept of \u201cheroes\u201d vs \u201cvillains\u201d to telling your story?\nJason King: Very. I actually build a lot of my stories around the villain. To me a story is only as good as its villain. I like my heroes to be a bit more reactive, forged in their struggles against my villains while battling their own inner demons at the same time. To me heroes and villains often start on the same road, and it\u2019s how they cope or fail to cope with life that I think leads them to their roles.\nQ: How do you create engaging characters that your readers will care about?\nJason King: I don\u2019t think I have a formula for this other than I try to give my characters some dimension of realism. I\u2019ve found that humor is one of the best ways to do this.\nQ: Did you write VALCORIA to entertain your readers and/or to deliver a message or to educate?\nJason King: I don\u2019t usually write to deliver a message, or teach anyone anything. I just love exciting stories with lots of action, magic, and drama. That being said, I don\u2019t think any author can write without their personal beliefs seeping into their narrative to one degree or another. One of Valcoria\u2019s themes is the reality of life after death, which as a Mormon, I believe in. But no, my books don\u2019t try to promote a message or an agenda.\nQ: Reviewers tout your storytelling and \u201cexciting action scenes, and plenty of twists.\u201d How do you create these action scenes and twists?\nJason King: I do a lot of day-dreaming outside of my actual writing. Usually in the car while listening to music. That helps me visualize what I want in a fight scene. I also get inspiration from action movies, anime, and JRPG\u2019s. And of course, other authors. Brandon Sanderson writes some really awesome action scenes.\nJason King: Well I just submitted the manuscript for part two of my first published novel \u201cThe Lure of Fools.\u201d So that will be my next release. And I\u2019m hard at work on the final part of that trilogy so I can get back to VALCORIA.\nQ: Tell us about Jason King. What do you like to do when you\u2019re not writing?\nJason King: I like to spend time with family and friends. I have a very supportive wife, and four wonderful children. They are a constant source of entertainment. When I\u2019m not writing I like to watch movies, play table-top role-playing games, and take naps.\nAbout Jason King\nJason King wishes he was raised on a desert planet by his aunt and uncle and watched over by a mysterious old recluse, but his life is much duller than that. He supposes that\u2019s why he started making up stories. Born in Salt Lake City Utah, Jason grew up on a steady diet of anime, science fiction, Dungeons and Dragons, JRPG\u2019s, and chocolate cake donuts. He pretended not to be a nerd just long enough to get married and start a family. And although dismayed by the revelation that Jason was a geek, his wife stuck with him and they are now the proud parents of four beautiful children. Jason holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in I.T. Management and is currently the Internet Marketing Manager for a local bookstore chain, but he is determined to one day quit his \u201c9 to 5\u201d and write full-time. Jason is also the author of The Lure of Fools from Curiosity Quills Press.\nAbout VALCORIA: CHILDREN OF THE CRYSTAL STAR\nHistory repeats itself like a song. The verses may vary, but the melody is always the same. The eastern empire of Aukasia has a new leader, a man who means to bring war to all the land. Yet, even in all his bloody ambition, he does not realize that he is but the puppet of a greater evil. Only the Kalyra - The Children of the Crystal Star - can stand against what's coming. Only they can protect the world of Valcoria from the mad hatred of the fallen god, Aedar. A new verse of the song has begun. The last verse\u2026\n@JasonKing1979\nValcoria book\nAll social links",

        "raw_content": "Common Rapper Artists Visits American White House\nWhite House - United States for Common Rapper Artists. Common Rapper Artists Visits American White House. Poetry criticism headlines today after The Daily Caller transcription of a rap verse from the Chicago rapper Common, who was First Lady Michelle Obama invited to present at a poetry event Wednesday supervision of students in the White House.\nThe rapper of the 2007 Rap, \"A Letter to the law,\" also calls out Uzi machine guns, \"the black strap around the bull run,\" and a call to \"burn Bush.\"\nThe language and the themes are very different from poetry in 2003 by the then First Lady Laura Bush promoted. Your proposed reading of the poet of 19th Century White House protests by leftist poet forced removal of President George W. Bush of the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein angrily derailed.\nThe White House encouraged the selection of the common criticisms and ridicule of many conservatives, including former governor of Alaska Sarah Palin. Tuesday morning in a tweet, it cites the The DC's transcript and said, \"Oh, the White House.\" The Power Line blog site, for example, said The DC transcription of the text was \"an act of cruelty\" in common. This criticism was supported by the Chicago Tribune, the Los Angeles Times, Fox News and numerous blogs, where conservatives long have complained that the Liberals zealous use of \"sedition\" and \"intolerance\" to aside conservatives in Hollywood, smear traditional culture, dim free market ideas echo in science, and mockery of one of the most popular and developed the nation genres, country music.\nThe dispute flared online outlets reported conservative, has support for common cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal expressed. In his rap, \"God is Liberty\", he explained that say \"Flyer\" Free Mumia \"in my freezer.\" Mumia Abu-Jamal was sentenced to death for the 1981 murder of police officer Daniel Faulkner. In an unfortunate coincidence, the joint appearance at the event at the White House with National Police Week.\nIn another rap, Common said: \"If I go / I love El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz will be known\", or Malcolm X, a black-supremacy. The second rap magazine reported that New Hampshire, a passage criticizing white women who date black men, \"I do not know what it is / but white girls gettin 'ass / I know what he is bar.\"\nIn 2005, Common told interviewers on the website that he futureproducers.com against mixed race relationships. \"I do not agree with them ... It's a problem,\" he said.\nIn return, left of center activists rally in support of the joint to join the White House. The Atlantic Media Matters and numerous bloggers and tweeters common despised critics, often without addressing common words. Sam Stein, a writer on the Huffington Post, for example, colleagues, the progressives, \"Yes, Obama makes a comprehensive case for tweeting aliens. But common is gonna read poetry at the White House! Eye on price, folks.\"\nWhite House officials not backed down, although the president to initiate the event. White House officials, a political incentive to stand by his invite.\nIn 1992, presidential candidates Clinton won support from swing voters and white anti-termination by rapper Sister Souljah. But these days the country is increasingly polarized electorate and shrinks the pool of swing voters. Victory in the 2012 elections can be decided by the candidates, motivating his base voters turn out.\nIf Obama's 2012 campaign as a base election officials they should welcome the criticism of the common, because it could be waning support among African-Americans to strengthen. Their falling support for Obama could slip further, partly because they only look at Obama woo Hispanic voters with the promise of low skilled immigration in an economy in at least one in six Africans are unemployed Americans.\nThe event will also massage Obama's links to the most influential art industry, heavily dependent on government support. \"First Lady Michelle Obama and government representatives will make some brief remarks to a new study shows in detail the importance of cultural education visible,\" the statement said.",

        "title": "Swampland:THE BOXMASTERS: Christmas Cheer",
        "raw_content": "Those wacky Boxmasters are back again with their second release inside of a year, and boy howdy, is it ever a stone cold gas, man. The boys wrap all of their British Invasion influences in a shroud of Hillbilly Country, just like they did on this summer\u2019s self-titled debut release, only this time Bud and the gang turn their attention to that most wonderful time of the year, the joyous Christmas season. Well, joyous for the most part.\nAfter all, the album begins with \u201cMy Dreams of Christmas,\u201d a Boxmasters original composition that tells the tale of a young boy who dreams of getting gifts, or at least having his daddy home over the Holidays. But it ain\u2019t happening. No, it isn\u2019t a happy snow man tune, but it is real.\nWhile we are on the subject of honesty, the story of a man spending yet another Christmas behind bars (the prison kind, not the drinkin\u2019 kind) is related in \u201cI Won\u2019t Be Home For Christmas.\u201d Like all of The Boxmasters\u2019 original songs, this one is well written. Again, it is sad but honest.\nSay you\u2019re looking for some happy, happy, joy, joy tunes? Well the boys in their sharp suits and ties deliver the goods in abundance. From their take on the traditional \u201cSilver Bells,\u201d to their rave up (beginning with the guitar lick from \u201cFolsom Prison Blues\u201d) of \u201cWe Three Kings,\u201d which is one of my favorites on the disc.\n\u201cSlower Than Christmas\u201d is another original that would make the Grinch grin. All about a man who has the \u201cbah-humbugs\u201d and would probably rather just watch The Cards games he TiVoed during the season than to \u201cdon we now his gay apparel.\u201d\nThere\u2019s \u201cRudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer,\u201d \u201cThe Christmas Song\u201d (another Buffalo favorite), \u201cBlue Christmas\u201d (second only to the the Elvis version) and the closer, a super-fab rendition of Lennon\u2019s \u201cHappy Christmas (War is Over.)\u201d Still a brilliant concept in my book.\nAll of the guys in The Boxmasters are stellar pickers, and I really like that lead singer. His look really reminds me of somebody I have seen somewhere before. Maybe on the TV. Maybe one of my old friends. Either way, he\u2019s a good egg, with a lot of nog.\nI like this young band a lot. I really feel they have a brilliant future. Merry Christmas, Boxmasters. RIght back atcha.\nkennychesneyrocks says...\nI love this cd! Brad Davis is awesome.",

        "raw_content": "HOME Free Essays Covert intervention as a moral problem\nCovert intervention as a moral problem Essay\nThe CIA has been greatly involved in the collection of intelligence as well as being engaged in covert action for the benefit of the United States. According to the 1991 Intelligence Authorization Act covert action is simply described as a particular \u201cactivity of the government of the United states that is meant to influence, economical, political, or military situations in the world, in that the role of the United States will not be acknowledged by many or publicly.\u201d Under covert action, the exact intentions or the reasons behind the actions are not known by the foreign countries hence secrecy is the main component of covert actions.\nCovert actions and the role of the CIA\nCovert actions simply involves activities that include supporting political parties, covert propaganda, private groups, economic operations and even individuals through advice or subsidization with an aim of supporting or overthrowing the existing regime in a foreign country. There is a difference between covert actions and clandestine collection efforts whereby the covert actions are mainly designed for influencing conditions in foreign countries while the clandestine efforts are aimed at providing the intelligence community of the United States with information that can be used in designing the covert actions.\nWe will write a custom essay sample on Covert intervention as a moral problem specifically for you\nThe CIA is the body that is responsible for the purpose of obtaining intelligence and providing policymakers with relevant information for the purpose of designing covert actions on foreign countries. Apart from being the provider of the intelligence information to policymakers, the CIA is also the same body that is engaged in carrying out the covert actions as well as advising policymakers with regard to the intelligence they have gathered. The CIA as an intelligence body that is also involved in carrying out the covert action in foreign countries always strives to build and maintain its reputation both in the eyes of the United States citizens and foreign countries.\nTo be able to maintain its reputation and put itself as an agency that is committed to serving the country and its citizens while at the same time promoting international relations, the CIA has to reach a compromise. The protecting the American citizens and the country at large as well as providing information for other foreign countries requires transparency. Under the covert actions and operations, there is a lot of secrecy and the only time information gets to reach the public is when operations have gone sour. This means that the CIA has an interest of protecting itself from critics within the public and avoids blame by the public while at the same time carrying out its operations.\nThe CIA is also closely involved with administration officials and policymakers whereby the intelligence from the CIA is questioned and analyzed by the policymakers when making decisions. However, over the years, the CIA has been faced with the challenge of lack of commitment on the part of the policymakers to take time and read the intelligence provided by the agency. Instead, most policymakers have been keen on intelligence that is related to current risks.\nThe unwillingness or the inability of policymakers to spend a lot of time in analyzing longer-range issues has been a source of frustration. The CIA have the duty to provide intelligence as they receive it and also take part in covert actions as they are assigned hence the need to have a balance between the two. The CIA has to ensure that it provides relevant information to policymakers because in the long run, it is the agency that is always blamed when covert actions to not go as planned. Therefore, the CIA has great interest in the intelligence and the covert actions that they take part in since the agency has to prove its worth and demonstrate that it performs its duties.\nBeing the provider of intelligence and at the same time the user of the intelligence requires a lot of integrity to ensure that there is no biasness whereby the CIA provide information that it is aware will work in its favor. As a way of ensuring that the covert actions that the carry out and get involved in are successful to build their image in the eyes of the public, the CIA may tend to manipulate the information and intelligence they provide to policymakers. It is quite difficult to be certain with the kind of intelligence that the CIA provides to the policymakers as not being biased due to the reason that they are the same users of the information that they have gathered.\nThe CIA as an intelligence agency and one that is held in high reputation would not want the public image that they have built get ruined by the kind of intelligence and covert actions they undertake. Therefore, based on the reason that the CIA is the provider and user of the intelligence they gather as well as the aim of protecting the agency from bad public image and reputation, it can be said that there is a conflict of interest.\nFurthermore, based on the issue that the intelligence the CIA gathers is provided to policy makers and in most occasions the policymakers do not take their time in reading and analyzing intelligence that is set for longer-use, the CIA has to ensure that the information they provide to the policymakers would not compromise the agency. Therefore, it can also be said that there is conflict of interest whereby the CIA, the provider and user of intelligence, has to ensure that policymakers to not make wrong decisions that will compromise the agency.\nThe CIA also has the mandate of promoting democracy both locally and internationally but this is not the case with the intelligence gathered as well as the covert actions they undertake. There is a lot of secrecy whereby the public is left out on covert actions issues and intelligence hence it can be said that the CIA is practicing double standards. Democracy requires people to be well informed, something that is not the case with regard to the covert actions and intelligence gathered by CIA.\nThe CIA has greater duty of protecting the public, the United States government and its interest while at the same time maintaining a reputable public image both locally and internationally. There are times when the CIA has to provide some intelligence in certain situations while at times it has to avoid letting the public know of what is going on based on the reason that the image of the agency may be destroyed in case the covert actions do not go as planned and no positive results achieved. Therefore, the CIA, apart from being an intelligence agency that provides intelligence and gets involved in covert actions, has the duty of protecting itself from the public, both locally and internationally. This could result in biasness in the kind of intelligence that it provides to policymakers as well as how it carries out the covert actions, hence conflict of interest.\nBeitz, Charles R. \u201cCovert intervention as a moral problem.\u201d Ethics & International Affairs 3, no. 1 (1989): 45-60.\nBerger III, Joseph B. \u201cCovert Action: Title 10, Title 50, and the Chain of Command.\u201d JFQ: Joint Force Quarterly no. 67 (2012 4th Quarter 2012): 32-39.\nBy Bill Gertz, The Washington Times. \u201cMilitary, CIA shun 9/11 panel on covert operations.\u201d Washington Times, The (DC) (September 9, 2011): 1.

        "raw_content": "Love that quote...especially coming from Einstein!\nWorking on the first round of revisions of the Love By Design. In the first round I'm looking for inconsistencies and places where I put 'zzzzzzzzzzzz' which means I couldn't think of anything at the time but wanted to push forward. At page 92 right now. Going back and forth from file on laptop and the file I loaded onto to my Kindle.\nI found it helpful to read it on the Kindle. Why?\n1. Reading it in a different format helps me spot errors\n2. I can use the highlight to mark those errors and I can make notes to myself on changes I want to make.\nWhile I'm revising I have a file open for my synopsis and as I come along major events I note them in the so when I go back to write it I have everything there that I need.\nAfter it's done I'll print out the whole manuscript and put it aside for 2 weeks - maybe a month then In the second and final round I look for flow of sentences, spelling, and grammar (LOL) - who am I kidding I hate grammar but I do the best that I can.\nIn the meantime I've started 2 new works-in-progress. One is a dystopian young adult and a women's fiction - not a romance - in fact there are no men in it save maybe a Catholic priest.\nAs excited as I am about the young adult the world building involved may deter my efforts. My idea for the women's fiction has been on my mind for quite some time - but only time will tell which will take over.\nMore from Love By Design - just a few minutes later - the meeting with the network executives is about to begin....\nRuss leaned back in the chair looking as though he was the star of the show and not an unwanted interloper. How could he be so relaxed when she was wound tighter than a bad celebrity facelift? Victoria tilted her head from side to side. Despite her misgivings, she wished his tanned hands were busy massaging her shoulders instead of tossing a paper weight into the air and catching it with the flair of a Las Vegas magician - so unprofessional.\nI don't know where my songs come from... If I knew, I'd know too much, more than we are allowed on this plane. Judy Collins\nWhen I went on cruise in October one of the female singers sang an old Judy Collins song that I had forgotten about. The song was Both Sides Now. It's one of those songs that the lyrics and the melody become more than just song.\nHere are some quotes from Judy Collins....\nI don't dream songs. I'm more apt to write dreams down and then to be able to interpret them into a song. I also tend to get up and write prose in the morning from which will come songs.\nI don't think you get to good writing unless you expose yourself and your feelings. Deep songs don't come from the surface; they come from the deep down. The poetry and the songs that you are suppose to write, I believe are in your heart.\nThis is just moment after last weeks six - Victoria was wondering how much he heard - she had joked to her agent/friend Ava that Neil her absent co-host would want Russ (who is from Australia) to go 'down under' on him\n\u201cAnd let me state for the record I only go down under on the opposite sex,\u201d said Russ.\nYeah, like anyone would question your sexual orientation. Regaining her ability to speak, she did manage to quip, \u201cNeil will be so disappointed.\u201d\n\u201cJust as long as I don\u2019t disappoint you.\u201d His lips curved into a wicked smile as he added, \u201cDo you still think you can handle me?\u201d\nWhat does your favorite superwoman say about you?\nYes - it time for another Woman's World Personality quiz!\nThe fictional heroine you admire most is a real reflection of our own super qualities....so who is my favorite superwoman?\nWonder Woman - duh\nThat means I am an exuberant charmer - I know that femininity is a strength. A talented multi-tasker I identify with her roles as hero and working woman.\nBionic Woman - you're a resilient self-starter\nNikita - you're a alpha nurturer\nBuffy the Vampire Slayer - you're a perceptive wit\nXena - you're a wise idealist\nSydney (from Alias) - you're a resourceful smarty\nOf course one has to wonder why Batgirl (my second favorite) is not on the list.... So who is your favorite?\nThis is my first six from Love By Design! Victoria is a co-host of Design Intervention and she is waiting to meet her new temporary co-host Aussie Russ Rowland which she is not happy about - in this scene she is with her agent and they are looking at his photo.\nRuss\u2019 burnished blond hair fell in waves past his neck in such a way that begged for her fingers to dive in and explore its texture. His dazzling smile mocked her as if he knew she craved to kiss the photo like some thirteen year-old and to top it off, his light brown eyes colored like the hues of the outback at sunrise stared back, daring her to do so.\nIf a two-dimensional photo made her feel like a feline predator ready to pounce, what feelings would the 3D version churn out? She would just have to deal with it, not that she had much choice, as they say, \u2018The show must go on\u2019. \u201cI can handle him,\u201d said Victoria.\n\"I'll look forward to it Luv.\"\nI'm just writing a story that I want to read. Jean M. Auel\nLooking forward to reading these two book. The first is Jean Auel's The Land of the Painted Caves. All I can say is FINALLY! It's the final volume of the Earth Children's series. The release date is March 29th.\nThis one is from the author of The Celestine Prophecy - he is the original self-published made it big authors. The Twelfth Insight puts a positive spin on the Mayan 2012 Prophecy. It's available now.\nHappy International Woman's Day!\noriginally called International Working Women\u2019s Day is marked on the 8th of March every year. It is a major day of global celebration of women. In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect, appreciation and love towards women to a celebration for women's economic, political and social achievements.\nThis is a great day for women but I\u2019m not ashamed to admit that a few years ago I used the day to get chocolate from the men in the office at the Public Works Dept. where I worked at the time\u2026at first they didn\u2019t believe me there was such a day\u2026though by the time we got back from the lunch all the ladies had a Reese Peanut Butter Cup on their desks.\nHere are some quotes that celebrate woman!\n\"Women are the real architects of society.\" ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe\n\"If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.\" ~ Margaret Thatcher\n\"The fastest way to change society is to mobilize the women of the world.\" ~ Charles Malik\n\"Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.\" ~ Timothy Leary\n\"Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.\" ~Charlotte Whitton\n\"Sure God created man before woman. But then you always make a rough draft before the final masterpiece. ~Author Unknown\nOkay - this is the last one from Playing For Keeps because I finished Love By Design! Hoo-Ray! So next week I'll start sharing. But for now....\nWhat was it about this man that made her feel safe, that made her want to risk it all? Kissing him in elevator, having sex in the hotel gym, what the hell had she'd been thinking? She didn't think he'd sex and tell, but she had to ask to be sure, to remind him of the stakes.\nBefore she could even form the question on her lips he said, \"Don't worry Samantha, your secret is safe with me.\" Ryan reached out, his thumb caressed her cheek. \"All of them.\"\nI look back on my life like a good day's work, it was done and I am satisfied with it. Grandma Moses\nAnna Mary Robertson Moses (September 7, 1860 \u2013 December 13, 1961), better known as \"Grandma Moses\", was a renowned American folk artist. The original late bloomer Grandma Moses didn't start painting until her 70's. Here are some quotes from her....\nPainting's not important. The important thing is keeping busy.\nA strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, and the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day.\n(She said the following in 1950 - imagine what she would say today!)\nNow that I am ninety-five years old, looking back over the years, I have seen many changes taking place, so many inventions have been made. Things now go faster. In olden times things were not so rushed. I think people were more content, more satisfied with life than they are today. You don't hear nearly as much laughter and shouting as you did in my day, and what was fun for us wouldn't be fun now.... In this age I don't think people are as happy, they are worried. They're too anxious to get ahead of their neighbors, they are striving and striving to get something better. I do think in a way that they have too much now. We did with much less.\n\"Imagination is more important than knowledge. Kn...\nI don't know where my songs come from... If I knew...\nI'm just writing a story that I want to read.

        "raw_content": "Groundbreaking Clinical Trials Study Cord Blood Stem Cells to Help Treat Brain Injury and Hearing Loss\nCord Blood Registry (CBR) is the exclusive partner for a growing number of clinical researchers focusing on the use of a child's own cord blood stem cells to help treat pediatric brain injury and acquired hearing loss. To ensure consistency in cord blood stem cell processing, storage and release for infusion, three separate trials have included CBR in their FDA-authorized protocol--including two at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) working in partnership with Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital, and a third at Georgia Health Sciences University, home of the Medical College of Georgia (MCG). This makes CBR the only family stem cell bank pairing researchers with prospective patients for these studies.\n\"Partnering with a series of specialists who want to research the use of a child's own newborn blood stem cells on a variety of disease states allows CBR to help advance medical research for regenerative therapies by connecting the child whose family banked with CBR to appropriate researchers,\" said Heather Brown, MS, CGC, Vice President of Scientific & Medical Affairs at Cord Blood Registry. \"The pediatric specialists from UTHealth, Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital, and Georgia Health Sciences University are at the forefront of stem cell research as they evaluate cord blood stem cells' ability to help facilitate the healing process after damage to nerves and tissue.\"\nHearing Loss and Traumatic Brain Injury Clinical Trials Break New Ground\nSensorineural hearing loss affects approximately 6 per 1,000 children by 18 years of age, with 9 percent resulting from acquired causes such as viral infection and head injury.(1,2,3) The Principal Investigator of the hearing loss study is Samer Fakhri, M.D., surgeon at Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center and associate professor and program director in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery at UTHealth. He is joined by James Baumgartner, M.D., sponsor of the study and guest research collaborator for this first-of-its-kind FDA-regulated, Phase 1 safety study of the use of cord blood stem cells to treat children with acquired hearing loss.\nThe trial follows evidence from published studies in animals that cord blood treatment can repair damaged organs in the inner ear. Clients of CBR who have sustained a post-birth hearing loss and are 6 weeks to 2 years old may be eligible for the year-long study. \"The window of opportunity to foster normal language development is limited,\" said James Baumgartner, M.D. \"This is the first study of its kind with the potential to actually restore hearing in children and allow for more normal speech and language development.\"\nAlthough the neurologic outcome for nearly all types of brain injury (with the exception of abuse) is better for children than adults,(4,5) trauma is the leading cause of death in children,(6) and the majority of the deaths are attributed to head injury.(7) Distinguished professor of pediatric surgery and pediatrics at UTHealth, Charles S. Cox, M.D. launched an innovative study building on a growing portfolio of research using stem cell-based therapies for neurological damage. The study will enroll 10 children ages 18 months to 17 years who have umbilical cord blood banked with CBR and have suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are enrolled in the study within 6-18 months of sustaining the injury.\nLabels: brain injuries, brain injury, CBR, Cord Blood Registry, Sensorineural hearing loss, TBI, traumatic brain injury",

As it turned out it was the Mother of all Battles, though not as Saddam could have possible have imagined. The death toll for the conscripted farmers, bank managers and teachers, hardly fed poorly paid, and certainly not trained for the task, was catastrophic. As the coalition forces continually subjected the Iraqi defences and Republican Guard to sortie of heavy bombardments. The numbers of the defending Army were well diminished by the time the ground troops were deployed, some of this shattered army offered little resistance, most offered none and surrendered with dignity.\nWhen the allied troops returned from the Gulf, some did not come home to a hero's welcome, instead they brought with them a legacy of ill health, as slowly but surely, the once fit men and women who contributed to the liberation of Kuwait, started to fall ill. The immediate response of the Governments was one of survival as they closed ranks and quickly \"clamped up\", issuing denials against the claims by some veterans, that somthing had affected their health, the wheels of a Government cover up were set in motion.",

        "raw_content": "Home Paranormal Ship Reappears 90 Years After Going Missing In The Bermuda Triangle (Video)\nShip Reappears 90 Years After Going Missing In The Bermuda Triangle (Video)\nHavana| The Cuban Coast Guard reported, that they had captured an unmanned ship heading for the island, which is dared to be the SS Cotopaxi, a tramp steamer which vanished in December 1925 and has since been associated with the legend of the Bermuda Triangle.The Cuban specialists detected the ship surprisingly on May 16, close to a limited military zone, west of Havana. They made numerous unsuccessful endeavors to speak with the team, lastly prepared three watch vessels to block it.\nWhen they achieved it, they were amazed to find that the ship was really an about 100-year old steamer recognized as the Cotopaxi, a name broadly connected with the legend of the Bermuda Triangle. There was nobody on board and the ship appeared to have been surrendered for a considerable length of time, recommending this could really be the tramp vessel that vanished in 1925.\nA comprehensive inquiry of the ship prompted the disclosure of the chief\u2019s logbook. It was, surely, related with the Clinchfield Navigation Company, the proprietors of the SS Cotopaxi, yet hasn\u2019t conveyed any sign concerning what happened to the ship in the course of the most recent 90 years. Cuban master, Rodolfo Salvador Cruz, trusts that the chief\u2019s logbook is credible. This report is brimming with valuable data concerning the life of the team before the ship\u2019s vanishing, yet the sections stop all of a sudden on December 1, 1925.\nOn 29 November 1925, the SS Cotopaxi withdrew Charleston, South Carolina, and headed towards Havana, Cuba. The ship had a group of 32 men, under the summon of Captain W. J. Meyer, and was conveying a payload of 2340 tons of coal. It was accounted for missing two days after the fact, and was incomprehensible for very nearly 90 years. The Vice President of Council of Ministers, General Abelardo Colom\u00e9, declared that the Cuban experts would lead an intensive examination to explain the secret of the ship\u2019s vanishing and return.\n\u201cIt is critical for us to comprehend what happened\u201d says General Colom\u00e9. \u201cSuch episodes could be truly terrible for our economy, so need to ensure that this sort of vanishing doesn\u2019t occur once more. The time has come to fathom the riddle of the Bermuda Triangle, for the last time.\u201d\nThe Bermuda Triangle is an approximately characterized locale covering the territory between Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, where many ships and planes have vanished under puzzling conditions.\nPop culture has ascribed a large number of the vanishings to paranormal and heavenly marvels, or to the movement of extraterrestrial creatures..\nOne clarification, even sticks the fault on extra innovation from the legendary lost landmass of Atlantis.\nRegardless of the ubiquity of all these unusual speculations, most researchers don\u2019t perceive the presence of the Bermuda Triangle, and accuse human slip-ups and regular marvels for the vanishings.\nThe baffling return of the SS Cotopaxi has, in any case, as of now produced a considerable measure of enthusiasm for established researchers and could push a few specialists to alter their opinion regarding the matter.\nPrevious articleUPDATE: Mind-blowing!

Your anticipation builds as a single guitar begins to play, your chest pounds as the drums kick in, and your adrenaline surges as the full band launches into \u201cDuct Tape.\u201d Electrifying, monumental, and incredibly fun. This is Ellice Blackout.\nEllice Blackout merged four experienced musicians dedicated to the larger-than-life sound of high-energy, hard rock. All of which share a common desire to capture the experience of a giant stadium concert and hit you with it through headphones, the radio, or at a live show. They\u2019re also a tight group of friends whose closeness and mutual admiration comes across in their performances.\nAfter years of live shows, Ellice Blackout has attracted a dedicated following across Vancouver Island and Vancouver, BC. Their debut album Villains (available September 10th 2016) delivers creative groove-based riffs, tight vocal harmonies, and a versatile mix of songs that all feel like a massive live show.\n\u200b http://www.elliceblackout.ca/ http://www.instagram.com/elliceblackout/ http://www.youtube.com/user/elliceblackout\nVaultry - \"Other Drugs\" -\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nVzvmJ0X0Y\nIt\u2019s very rare that a group of musicians gets together and pursues a vision that is as focused as VAULTRY\u2019s charismatic, emotional, and melodic sound. This Victoria, BC-based Alternative Rock band prides itself on its diverse guitar-work, atmospheric textures, and passionate vocal. Forming in 2014, Vaultry have developed a melancholic, vocal-driven indie rock sound, backed by captivating emotional hooks, and an anthemic score. In 2017, the band released their debut LP tilted \u2018Eulogy\u2019, as a dedication and celebration of their late guitarist Chasen Fraser. The group has spent the last few years gathering an expansive and dedicated fan base both locally and internationally, performing across Canada in 2017.\nVAULTRY's latest release 'Eulogy' tells the story of Chasen's life, growing up transgender and being diagnosed with Cancer at the age of 25. The remainder of the album is written from the perspective of the band as a reaction to their grief. The album is a collection of songs written in the last few months of Fraser's life with vocalist, Leith Hynds, with highlights including the track 'Hospice', which was written at Fraser's hospice residence at Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria BC. The remainder of the tracks were written by the band upon his passing. The album draws influence from the pop-punk records that Chasen was nostalgic for in his youth, as well as the modern Post-Rock and Electronic sensibilities that vocalist/producer, Leith Hynds, is influenced by.\nSince it's release 'Eulogy' has received a massive positive response from fans and critics alike, amassing over 360k plays across online streaming sites such as Spotify and Youtube.\nThe band is currently working on new material to expand and experiment on the melodic and electronic sounds of the last record.\nhttp://www.vaultrymusic.ca/\nhttps://www.instagram.com/vaultry/\nThe Faceplants - \"Unholy\" -\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxEispc89TY\nThe Faceplants have undergone quite a transformation over the last few years. Endless touring, songwriting and recording have allowed them to grow into the supergroup that they\nare today.\nWhile The Faceplants have been a band in one form or another for over the last ten years, it wasn\u2019t until they released their singles \u2018Why\u2019 (2015), \u2018Devil in a White Dress\u2019 (2016), and \u2018Who I\nAm Inside\u2019 (2017) that they showed their true colours.\nWith the release of their new single \u2018UNHOLY\u2019 in May 2018, the band showcases an energy and authenticity that has been missing in today\u2019s musical climate.\n\u2018UNHOLY\u2019 is a beautiful and dynamic musical journey, tastefully balancing a retro vibe, powerful groove, and modern production to create a timeless classic. The song\u2019s lyrics paint a vivid\npicture of personal struggle using religious allegory and metaphor. Once the song kicks in, you instantly feel the undeniable passion coming out of the speakers.\nThe Faceplants forthcoming album \u2018Animalistic\u2019 is the culmination of three years of development and growth. Working alongside producer/engineer Ben Kaplan (Mother Mother, Biffy Clyro), the band has carved out a strong and focused body of work. The album is a concept record about perseverance, discovering one\u2019s identity, and overcoming insecurities through a personal journey. It is a soundtrack for those carving their own path. The Faceplants\u2019 goal is to give a voice to every single person out there that is on their own journey of self-discovery and struggling to find their way.\nEarlier this year, the band created an incredible opportunity for themselves by writing and recording a theme song to their favourite talk show, Sirius XM\u2019s Jim & Sam Show. After Tweeting the song to the show one morning, the shows hosts Jim Norton and Sam Roberts opened a dialogue with The Faceplants, which eventually led to their song \u2018Hey, Everybody!\u2019 becoming the official theme song for the #2 talk show on Sirius XM satellite radio. Additionally,\nthe band appeared live on the Jim & Sam Show in January 2018 during their annual trip to the Grammys. This cool, viral, quirky idea turned into an incredible opportunity, introducing the band to a whole new audience.\nHaving cut their teeth on the road from an early age, The Faceplants are true showmen. From filling the most popular venues in their hometown of Vancouver (The Rio, The Roxy, VENUE, & Tom\nLee Music Hall), to touring the country half a dozen times in the last few years, their music leaves a lasting impression on whoever it reaches. Through this relentless work ethic, the band has\nbeen able to cultivate an organic following of dedicated followers.\nReaching out and interacting with these followers via social media is a massive priority to the band. Fans get an intimate look into the band's life during their video blog series on Facebook\nentitled The Journey. They document it all: going to the Grammy\u2019s, crashing the Juno\u2019s, working in the studio, or going behind the scenes on the set of a music video. The Journey is the fans view inside The Faceplants world, showcasing their process and personalities. In addition to The Journey, the band is constantly bringing fans into their day-to-day process on Snapchat and\nInstagram. A community is starting to build. A community of like-minded, passionate individuals, connecting through all social platforms.\nWith their in-your-face attitude, powerful and unforgettable songs, and sheer tenacity, The Faceplants are here to make a name for themselves.\nhttps://www.thefaceplantsofficial.com/\nhttps://www.instagram.com/thefaceplants/\nEllice Blackout (hard rock/punk rock)\nImagine yourself at an Ellice Blackout show.

Esther Earl has always wanted to be a writer and her dreams finally came true. This Star Won\u2019t Go Out will have its place among my favorite books.\nThis Star Won\u2019t Go Out or TSWGO holds Esther\u2019s precious story between its covers and her story is one that will inspire you to want to make a difference. Esther was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at thirteen years old, and from then on, her life was drastically changed. However, TSWGO is not just about Esther\u2019s struggles with cancer, it is about her ability to keep a smile on her face, and keep doing what she loves, which is writing. Esther talks about her time spent with John Green and all of her internet friends, and just her thoughts she wrote down in her diary. The thing I love about TSWGO is that it is not just a story of how Esther died; it is a story about how she lived. Esther was the shining star in a time of grief, and even though she had times when she was sad, she still tried to smile through it. That is what I love about her, she had cancer yet she smiled through it the best she could. TSWGO is an inspiring book because Esther was such a happy person even through the darkest time of her life. She had faith in God, and that is what kept her going. Throughout this whole book I was either crying or on the verge thereof because this book is so touching. John Green wrote an introduction to TSWGO, and not even through the third paragraph is when I started crying. You can just feel how much John loves and misses her. Everything about this book is wonderful, inspiring, and sad, but Esther story is one that deserves to be told.\nI recommend this book to anyone and everyone. This book needs to be read because Esther\u2019s story will change your life. I now wish that I was as strong as Esther was through her struggles, and she has touched my life with her beautiful story. I know one thing for sure; this star will never go out.",

Screenwriter Phyllis Nagy (Mrs. Harris) penned the script for the project, which was directed by Oscar-nominee Todd Haynes (Far From Heaven, I\u2019m Not There) and stars Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett (Robin Hood, The Monuments Men) and Oscar-nominee Rooney Mara (The Social Network, Her) as an older, married woman and a department store clerk, respectively, who enter into an unconventional love affair in 1950s Manhattan. Along with the culture and societal norms of the times, their relationship becomes even more strained as Carol deals with possibly separating from her husband, and furthermore, loosing her daughter.\nAlso starring in the film are actors Kyle Chandler (Zero Dark Thirty, The Wolf of Wall Street) and Sarah Paulson (Mud, 12 Years A Slave). The earned big nods at the Cannes Film Festival, winning selections for Best Film and Best Actress, and will see a limited theatrical release this Friday, with an expanded release possibly happening sometime in 2016. This one will be more of the more artfully crafted dramas from the looks of the trailer, and pretty intense subject matter, but if you\u2019re in the mood for that with all this rain it\u2019ll make for the perfect date movie. Keep an eye out for upcoming TV spots and a potential further release date. The trailer is available here on MADE.

Olympus Has Fallen was released in 2013 and was praised for it\u2019s action sequences and visual effects, but the story wasn\u2019t necessarily anything you haven\u2019t heard before. The new movie will also bring back original actors Melissa Leo, Angela Bassett, and Radha Mitchell, who will also be joined by Oscar-nominated actor Jackie Earle Haley. Haley is most widely known by younger audiences for portraying the masked hero Rorschach in Zack Snyder\u2019s Watchmen (2009), but his Academy Award-nomination came from his supporting role in director Todd Field\u2019s Little Children (2006). The actor has also appeared in All The King\u2019s Men (2006), Semi-Pro (2008), Shutter Island (2010), Lincoln (2012), and the recent remake of RoboCop earlier this year from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The plot will apparently involve an assassination plot that will take place at the funeral of Prime Minister, but it reads to me like this series is turning into a modern-day Escape From New York/Escape From LA sequel series: just a similar story taking place in a new location, but I guess we\u2019ll see when it hits theaters in 2015. The film will be directed by Babak Nanafi from a script by Olympus Has Fallen writers Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt and new team member Christian Gudegast.\nThis entry was posted in Film and tagged a, All, angela, award, babak, bassett, benedikt, butler, children, christian, cop, creighton, earle, eckhart, escape, fallen, Field, freeman, from, gerard, goldwyn, gudegast, haley, has, island, jackie, katrin, kings, l., LA, leo, Lincoln, little, London, mayer, melissa, men, Metro, mgm, mitchell, morgan, najafi, New, nominated, olympus, oscar, Pro, radha, robo, robocop, rorschach, rothenberger, semi, shutter, snyder, the, todd, watchmen, Winner, York, zack on October 30, 2014 by Carnahan.",

        "raw_content": "Books by Mark Ryan\nCalculus for Dummies, 2nd Edition\nThe mere thought of having to take a required calculus course is enough to make legions of students break out in a cold sweat. Others who have no intention of ever studying the subject have this notion that calculus is impossibly difficult unless you happen to be a direct descendant of Einstein.\nWell, the good news is that you can master calculus. It\u2019s not nearly as tough as its mystique would lead you to think. Much of calculus is really just very advanced algebra, geometry, and trig. It builds upon and is a logical extension of those subjects. If you can do algebra, geometry, and trig, you can do calculus.\nIn this popular book, Mark Ryan explains calculus in plain English rather than with the kind of technical jargon that\u2019s found in so many math books. Ryan brings difficult and abstract calculus concepts down to earth by showing how these concepts are connected to more ordinary, concrete things. If you find your calculus textbook a bit difficult to follow, this is the book for you.\nBuy Calculus for Dummies, 2nd Edition from Amazon.com\nGeometry for Dummies, 3rd Edition\nLearning geometry doesn\u2019t have to hurt. With a little bit of friendly guidance, it can actually be fun! Geometry For Dummies, 3rd Edition, helps you make friends with triangles, rectangles, rhombuses, circles, parallelograms, polygons, pyramids, and prisms. The book eases you into all the principles and formulas you need to analyze these two- and three-dimensional shapes, and it gives you the skills and strategies you need to write geometry proofs.\nGeometry proofs trip up many students. But once you learn the proof tips and strategies covered in Geometry for Dummies, you\u2019ll realize that proofs aren\u2019t nearly as tricky as they may have seemed at first. You\u2019ll find out how a proof\u2019s chain of logic works \u0097 how you move from the given information through interim conclusions and then on to the final conclusion. And you\u2019ll learn some secrets for getting past the rough spots.\nThe non-proof parts of the book contain helpful formulas and tips that you can use anytime you need to shape up your knowledge of shapes: triangles, pentagons, hexagons, circles, cones, cylinders, and so on. You\u2019ll learn how to analyze area, perimeter, volume, surface area, angles, diagonals, and more. And, finally, the book may even give you a feel for why geometry continues to draw people to careers in art, architecture, engineering, carpentry, robotics, physics, and computer animation, among others.\nBuy Geometry for Dummies, 3rd Edition from Amazon.com\nCalculus Workbook for Dummies, 2nd Edition\nFrom differentiation to integration \u0097 solve problems with ease.\nOver 300 problems!\n\u2022 Practice solving the most common types of problems you\u2019ll see in\nyour calculus course.\n\u2022 Get the inside scoop on calculus shortcuts and strategies.\n\u2022 Try your hand at calculus application problems.\n\u2022 Check your work with step-by-step solutions that clearly identify\nwhere you went wrong (and right!) with a problem.\nGot a grasp on the terms and concepts you need to know, but get lost halfway through a problem or, worse yet, not know where to begin? Have no fear. This hands-on companion book to Calculus for Dummies, 2nd Edition, walks you through the methods for solving the different types of calculus problems you\u2019ll likely encounter in your class. With just enough refresher explanations before each set of problems, the workbook will help you sharpen your skills and improve your performance. You\u2019ll see how to work with limits, continuity, curve-sketching, natural logarithms, derivatives, integrals, infinite series, and more.\nBuy Calculus Workbook For Dummies, 2nd Edition from Amazon.com\nGeometry Workbook for Dummies gives you the opportunity to try your hand at the kind of geometry proofs and two- and three-dimensional non-proof geometry problems covered in Geometry for Dummies, 3rd Edition (see above). The workbook contains over 200 practice problems.\nGeometry for Dummies, 3rd Edition contains comprehensive explanations of all topics and concepts. The workbook covers the same topics, but its main purpose is to give you practice problems so that you can reinforce the ideas you learned in the main book. But the workbook is not only a collection of problems. Concepts, theorems, formulas, etc. are explained \u0097 just much more briefly than in the main book.\nSome students will want to go through the thorough discussion of ideas in Geometry for Dummies and then turn to the workbook for practice. Other students might want to go straight to the workbook, using the main book only when they want more complete explanations of certain topics. Still other students may choose to do without the main book.\nBuy Geometry Workbook for Dummies from Amazon.com\nIf \u0097 like Sergeant Joe Friday of the classic TV show Dragnet \u0097 you want \u201cjust the facts,\u201d you should pick up a copy of Calculus Essentials for Dummies. It contains all of the important calculus topics, concepts, definitions, and formulas covered in Calculus for Dummies, 2nd Edition (see above), but without the comprehensive explanations. As a result, Calculus Essentials for Dummies is a much smaller and lighter book that can easily fit in your book bag or coat pocket. It\u2019s a great reference book to have for a quick check of critical calc concepts. And it\u2019s not just a collection or list of formulas. All formulas and concepts are explained, and \u0097 as in all of Ryan\u2019s books \u0097 the ideas are explained in plain English.\nBuy Calculus Essentials for Dummies from Amazon.com\nGeometry Essentials for Dummies contains all of the important topics, concepts, formulas, and proof strategies contained in Geometry for Dummies, 3rd Edition (see above), but without the thorough explanations. It\u2019s a great, pocket-size reference book to keep handy for a quick check of formulas for area, volume, and surface area, properties of triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons, geometry proof theorems, postulates, and definitions, etc. And Geometry Essentials for Dummies is more than just a bullet-list of theorems and formulas. All concepts are explained \u0097 just much more briefly than in Geometry for Dummies.\nBuy Geometry Essentials for Dummies from Amazon.com\nEveryday Math for Everyday Life:\nA Handbook for When It Just Doesn't Add Up\nIf you find yourself in situations where you wish you knew how to \u201cdo the math\u201d \u0097 whether to figure a percent discount, to figure your tip, to convert a temperature from centigrade to Fahrenheit, to understand an APR, or to help your kids with math \u0097 then Everyday Math For Everyday Life is the book for you.\nThe first half of the book is an excellent review of all the math you need for day-to-day life. Among the topics are\u2026\n\u2022 fractions, decimals, percents, ratios, and proportions;\n\u2022 basic geometry;\n\u2022 measurement and conversion;\n\u2022 probability, odds, and statistics; and\n\u2022 reading charts and graphs.\nEverything is explained in plain English, so whether you\u2019ve forgotten the math \u0097 or, heaven forbid, never learned it in the first place \u0097 you should have no trouble following the explanations.\nThe second half of the book covers roughly 100 situations where knowing the math might come in handy. Say you\u2019re traveling in Europe, and you see that the temperature is 20 degrees centigrade. What\u2019s that in Fahrenheit? Simple: 1) double 20, that\u2019s 40, then 2) add 30, that gives you 70 degrees Fahrenheit. This shortcut method doesn\u2019t give you an exact answer, but it\u2019s close enough for deciding what to wear, etc.\nYou can also learn the math concerning the GNP, the federal deficit, the inflation rate, and the prime rate. There\u2019s a nice shortcut for calculating how long it will take your investment to double in value depending on the interest rate you\u2019re earning. You can learn some shortcuts for converting from metric to U.S. units of measurement. There\u2019s a section on baseball statistics, another on casino game odds, and one about the weather. My guess is that many of these topics will seem easier than you might have thought. I\u2019m confident that you\u2019ll enjoy and benefit from the book.\nBuy Everyday Math for Everyday Life from Amazon.com",

        "raw_content": "Sean O'Driscoll: a Primer\nSean O\u2019Driscoll: a Primer\nPosted by Glen Wilson\ton Jan 22, 2012\tin Uncategorized\t| 17 Comments\nImage available under Creative Commons \u00a9 givingnot@rocketmail.com\nNottingham Forest fans read on, for we are very pleased to welcome back Glen Wilson, steward of Doncaster Rovers\u2019 Popular STAND Fanzine and late of award winning blog, Viva Rovers. Here Glen provides us with an insight into Sean O\u2019Driscoll, recently installed in a supporting role to Steve Cotterill at the City Ground.\n\u2018The natural state of the football fan is bitter disappointment\u2019 wrote Nick Hornby and for the most part of course he is right. We are dreamers who specialise in crushing our own dream with pessimistic realism. We could win this\u2026 but we\u2019ll probably chuck it away in injury time\u2026 again. We might win the Cup\u2026 but we\u2019ll probably go out in the 3rd round to a bunch of lower league cloggers. We could ping the ball about like Barcelona\u2026 but we\u2019re not likely to be are we? We\u2019re just fucking Doncaster.\nOr so we thought. Turns out some dreams can come true. Even an unfashionable pub team like ours could play football. Not just as a one-off either, like the time we retained possession against Nuneaton for a whole 48 seconds before Dean Walling shanked it into the Town End. But proper passing football. Regularly. Sean O\u2019Driscoll came to my town. And he made it possible. He built a team that passed and moved, played fluid football, and all within sight of the chimney at Peglers Works. And I\u2019ll always be indebted to him for that.\nFive years O\u2019Driscoll was at Doncaster and though it took a while to introduce the style of play he had in mind \u2014 indeed a 0-2 loss at Scunthorpe in that period was one of the most woeful Rovers performances I\u2019ve ever seen \u2014 the patience was eventually rewarded. We lifted the Johnstone\u2019s Paint Trophy. We won at Wembley\u2026 against Leeds. We reached the second tier. And we\u2019re still here four years on.\nIt\u2019s one thing to ping the ball about to get to these highs; it\u2019s another to do it to survive. The expectation of a side punching above their weight, particularly a Northern one, is to become a disciple of Tony Pulis. Hoof it. Punt it. And play the percentages. But why try and capitalise on others\u2019 weaknesses when you can play to your own strengths? Rovers got to the second tier playing a fluid brand of football and set out to stay there in the same manner, something that surprised people from day one, not least Paul Merson \u2013 \u2018A different class of passing the ball\u2019 \u2013 and it was.\nIn this brilliant interview with Goalfood, O\u2019Driscoll gave a fascinating insight into the side he had developed: \u2018We never do passing drills in training. We try to give people options on the ball and the thing I\u2019m trying to coach is for the player to pick the right option, which is what the better players do. I get scouting reports which say \u2018he gives the ball away too much\u2019 but I\u2019m trying to train the scouts to ask \u2018was it the right ball to play?\u2019 Football\u2019s about giving the ball away \u2014 but was it the right pass at the right time? Sometimes I\u2019m more concerned about that than I am about whether or not he completed the pass. I can\u2019t buy someone for a million quid but I want to get someone in who can see options and can take the right one. I\u2019m in a market where I can afford a player because he\u2019s cheap but I have to know that I can develop him because he has the raw materials I can work with. Right pass, right time \u2014 that\u2019s two out of three and I can work on the rest.\u2019\nAnd work on the rest he did. Something which meant he was able to get more out of players others had given up on like John Oster, and Brian Stock (who went from Preston\u2019s reserves to a heralded international performance under O\u2019Driscoll). And also nurture unlikely talents, like Mustapha Dumbuya, who had hitherto been travelling the London non-league scene like The Littlest Hobo, and Sam Hird, released by Leeds 150 Rovers appearances ago.\nAs great as the football was (and it was often phenomenal), throughout his time at Rovers O\u2019Driscoll had his critics. It was suggested that he had no plan B. That passing football was all he knew. But of course passing the ball about is not in itself a tactic, it\u2019s just a means to an end. The diversity of footballing approaches is too often simplified and too easily bracketed into formations, something O\u2019Driscoll himself talked of in an interview in 2010, \u2018When people say, \u201cThey\u2019re a well-organised team\u201d, what exactly does that mean? \u201cIs 4-4-2 rigid?\u201d We\u2019ve just had an England team lambasted for that. People think 4-4-2 is tactics; it\u2019s nothing to do with tactics, it\u2019s a structure. Within the structure you can do whatever you want. It could be the most fluid system in the world. The problem with England was that their 4-4-2 was rigid. They needed to be fluid. But when you\u2019re playing against Spain, do you need a fluid 4-4-2? Do you f***. You need to be rigid because they\u2019re better than us. All I can do is send out a team with certain values and the players operate within that\u2018\nOf course the downside of O\u2019Driscoll\u2019s approach was that Rovers\u2019 squad was, in stature at least, decidedly lightweight. There\u2019s a reason for the incredulity in which we\u2019re told a player has \u201ca decent touch for a big man\u201d and that\u2019s big lumps who are good in the air don\u2019t tend to be able to deftly move the ball around midfield. As such Rovers often came unstuck against more physical opponents, and we spent five years being unnerved whenever opponents forced a corner, or a free-kick, or a throw-in, or a kick-off. Some of us were willing to forgive that Achilles heel in exchange for the flowing football going in the opposite direction. Others, perhaps understandably, were not.\nBut to suggest that O\u2019Driscoll\u2019s teams were hampered by only having one system is wrong; he built a side of intelligent footballers and as such it was not just the football which was fluid. The system was too. And so Rovers would not be averse to changing approach minutes into a game. After an away victory in November 2010 the opposition told reporters that Rovers had altered their set-up after quarter of an hour and that his side had needed to adjust to this at half-time. By the time he had been able to implement his changes Doncaster led 2-0. That manager? Steve Cotterill.\nThis fixture between O\u2019Driscoll\u2019s Doncaster and Cotterill\u2019s Portsmouth highlights just what a juxtaposition of styles Nottingham Forest have now employed. O\u2019Driscoll is a thoughtful realist. Cotterill, a paranoid blame merchant, as reflected by the post match interviews in which the latter perplexingly chooses to pin the blame for Carl Dickinson\u2019s knee high assault on James Hayter on David Healy and the referee. If you watch Cotterill\u2019s post-match interviews regularly then you\u2019ll have noticed how unfortunate he has been. The whole world continues to conspire against him. Just as it did last week. And every week before that.\nAs a partnership then O\u2019Driscoll and Cotterill are the odd couple, the sort of pairing only usually thrust together in a sit-com, or a clich\u00e0\u00a9d cop show. Cotterill the brash hot-headed detective. O\u2019Driscoll the mild-mannered thoughtful sidekick. It seems the Forest board stumbled across a couple of old episodes of Dalziel and Pascoe and decided that was just what they needed. That a club would want O\u2019Driscoll involved given his track record is understandable, it\u2019s the partnership with Cotterill which is most surprising.\nCotterill is an old school tracksuit manager. He shows \u2018passion\u2019, that great virtue which supporters long for, albeit one which boils down to showing signs of mental illness on the touchline. O\u2019Driscoll on the other hand is a thinker in casual slacks and he encourages his players to think too: \u2018They can agree or disagree but if they disagree it needs to be logical. They can\u2019t just disagree because someone in the stands or on the telly said something. But there\u2019s no thought, people do things because they\u2019ve always been done. If you speak to Harry Redknapp, he\u2019ll tell you I drove him mad. I don\u2019t know what players know, I\u2019m gobsmacked at times by what they don\u2019t know. They\u2019re never asked to think. We breed players from eight years old who never ask \u201cWhy are we doing this?\u201d or \u201cHow does this work?\u201d \u2013 thinking players, who evolve. All our coaching philosophies here are about understanding your responsibilities. Some players fly with it, some find it difficult, some of the older ones want to be told.\u2018\nUnfortunately modern day football managers are no longer solely judged on their ability to manage. For reasons I\u2019ve never understood great importance is also given to the manner in which they display their self in front of a camera or microphone. Call me old fashioned but as long as a manager is proving effective at his primary role then whenever grilled by a reporter he can hum the speeches of Hitler for all I care. O\u2019Driscoll has little time for the media spotlight; and as a result the media had little time for him. His lack of clich\u00e0\u00a9d rhetoric was often derided as being negative rather than the frankness it actually conveyed. Indeed Taylor Parkes in When Saturday Comes once summed up his style in interviews as that of a man who\u2019s \u2018just been told his dog has three weeks to live\u2019.\nAs Mike Whalley chronicled after a 6-0 defeat to Ipswich, O\u2019Driscoll sat down in the press room and said to reporters \u2018Go on, someone ask me a stupid question.\u2019 The second question he faced was \u2018How disappointed are you, Sean?\u2019 \u201dThat\u2019s a stupid question,\u2019 O\u2019Driscoll replied. \u2018I am this disappointed.\u2019 He held his hands a couple of feet apart to indicate how disappointed he was, then got up and walked out. Daily Mail columnist Martin Samuel subsequently accused O\u2019Driscoll of being arrogant. Yeah, Martin Samuel. A rare case of the pot calling the kettle a pot.\nWhen Rovers were winning O\u2019Driscoll\u2019s manner in interviews was viewed as pragmatism, as realistic honesty. When they started losing it became dour and negative, pessimistic even, and was eventually used as another rod with which to beat him, despite there actually being no real change in the content of his interviews. His replacement at Doncaster Dean Saunders has been lauded by the club and supporters for his enthusiasm when he talks to the media. He\u2019s a breath of fresh air we\u2019re told as he delivers more soundbites on the passion of supporters and the importance of youth. Whilst managers are being trumpeted for how they say things rather than what they say perhaps a behind the scenes role is a much better fit for Sean.\nPrior to this week Sean O\u2019Driscoll had spent his thirty years in the professional game at just three clubs; Fulham, Bournemouth and Doncaster. In terms of stature and expectation there can be no arguments that becoming involved at Nottingham Forest is a higher step. Forest of course have underachieved in recent seasons, something which has not been helped by a succession of managers keen to pass the buck. The Forest squad of last season was one of the strongest in the Division but Billy Davies\u2019 constant bleating at underfunding was so persistent that ultimately it was taken as fact and created an even more divisive atmosphere at the club as the blame shifted to a board who had already stumped up more investment than most.\n\u2018We are not or rather I am not, driven by the desire to get Doncaster Rovers promoted to the Premier League,\u201d O\u2019Driscoll told the Irish Daily Mail a year ago. \u201cToo many clubs set that as a target and use that as the sole arbitrator of success. The result being poor, hasty decisions made for the wrong reasons, which in any industry is a recipe for disaster.\u2019 When even at Rovers this realism was viewed by many as a lack of ambition \u2014 maintaining the club\u2019s second longest second tier stint in its history seemingly not ambitious enough \u2014 then you have to wonder how Forest fans, the name of Brian Clough literally looming large over every game at the City Ground, will take to such pragmatism.\nHowever as O\u2019Driscoll has said: \u2018To stay in this division and avoid relegation you need to do certain things. To win promotion you need to do certain things. Write a list and they\u2019d be no different \u2013 except for money. They\u2019d be things like organisation, attitude, discipline, so why treat it differently? But you have to articulate it: what does organisation look like to a Championship team? We think we know.\u2019 At Rovers O\u2019Driscoll didn\u2019t have, or wasn\u2019t trusted with, the money to turn a side surviving in the second tier into one pushing for the first and so he set his targets accordingly. At Forest that element is available.\nForest though have not hired a manager. They already have one, and a very prevalent one at that, bobbing around the technical area like an excitable Jim Henson creation. They\u2019ve instead hired a first team coach who knows the game and who above all possesses an element Forest have been without for all too long; realism. \u2018I was 22 before I came into the game and I\u2019d been in work so maybe that\u2019s why my approach is different. I wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s analytical I think it\u2019s just common sense\u2026 The average tenure of a job is less than 18 months. You\u2019re trying to put something together which is long term and all that really matters is trying to win the next game so f**k everything else, managers just need to win the next game. Then you win the next game and you\u2019re supposedly a better manager for it, then you win the next one after that and all of a sudden you\u2019re going to jump ship because someone else wants you. The whole thing is cyclical.\u2019\nIn my opinion there is no-one in football who deserves to be just another cog in that cyclical approach to the game less than Sean O\u2019Driscoll. Though I remain perplexed as to how a working relationship with Steve Cotterill will unfold for him, my reaction to his appointment is one of delight. Quite simply there is no other man in the domestic game thinking like he\u2019s thinking, and football was notably poorer for his short absence.\nGlen can be followed on Twitter here.\nJames Swyer (@jamesswyer)\nAn excellent piece, thanks.\nAs an AFC Bournemouth fan, I couldn\u2019t agree more with all of the above. He was derided by sections of the AFCB faithful for the having a small side, but played the best football I\u2019ve seen in the 20 years I\u2019ve been going to Dean Court.\nA clever, honest and intelligent man who deserves respect (and time) wherever he goes. Sadly for him, I think he achieved the maximum he could ar AFCB and Doncaster a year or so before his departure, but his unrelenting commitment to the project wouldn\u2019t have it any other way. He rebuilt the Bournemouth side 3 times over, having lost Wade Elliott, Brian Stock et al for peanuts and will always have a place in my heart.\nLord knows how he\u2019ll get on with Cotterill at Forest, their football philosophies couldn\u2019t be more different.\nAnother AFCB supporter here. You may have overlooked, or been unaware of the fact that Cotterill and O\u2019Driscoll were teammates at AFCB between \u201993-\u201995 \u2026\u2026. during a majority of that period the manager was \u2026\u2026\u2026 the one and only Tony Pulis! Cotterill was brought by Pulis, whereas O\u2019Driscoll was brought by and played most of his career under Harry Redknapp.\nI imagine the O\u2019Driscoll management legacy will be seen in Eddie Howe, Jason Tindall and Carl Fletcher, rather than changing the way Steve Cotterill operates.\nExcelllent point Chris. I had forgotten this link and once attended a League Cup tie between Bournemouth and Cardiff where Cotterill had a particularly good game as a lanky striker.\nRed and Proud\nWhat an excellent article. Intelligently written and very observant.\nAs a died in the wool Forest fan I am delighted with SO\u2019D\u2019s appointment. I like both his footballing style (keep the ball, pass to one of your own side) and his personal approach to life (if you\u2019ve nothing to say, say nothing).\nI\u2019m intrigued to see how he\u2019ll work with Cotterill \u2013 their approaches are so different it might just work\u2026\u2026.could this partnership become the new \u201cClough and Taylor\u201d and restore some semblance of hope and success to this tired old club?!\nI can but dream\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..\nExellent article. Sean played alongside Tony Pulis in AFC Bournemouth\u2019s wonderful promotion to the old divi two. Good friends and team mates.\nSean may well be dour in interviews but the questions are trite and superficial. Sean will talk to fans and discuss tactics and the game with enthusiasm. He was one of the few players who always came in the supporters club for a post match beer. He is intelligent and articulate. Forest are very fortunate to have him. Under Sean Bournemouth played some of the best football I have ever seen at Dean Court.\nGreat post \u2013 and good to see him back in work. What odds on Cotterill being given the boot shortly and O\u2019Driscoll stepping into the breach?

        "raw_content": "Category: Life and Living\nLondon Calling? I can\u2019t hear it!\nI know that to some people \u2013 many people \u2013 living in London is the epitome of cool. It\u2019s very rare you hear of country kids growing up with a dream to move to Manchester, for example. It\u2019s always London. The capital city; centre of culture, home to theatreland and the geography of our Monarch.\nMe? I\u2019ve never seen the appeal. It\u2019s expensive, crowded and full of tourists. Plus it\u2019s pretty big. So living \u201cin\u201d London is actually about living in one of many boroughs, all of which have their own individual high streets, postcodes and local pubs. All the \u201cgreat things\u201d that people quote about living in London \u2013 the museums, the art galleries, the chance to see different bands every night of the week and a different play in the West End \u2013 aren\u2019t really on your doorstep. Sure, your own borough might have stuff going on, but probably not every day, You\u2019ll invariably need to travel to suck up everything that London has to offer, which means an overcrowded tube, an overpriced taxi, or a walk that will be more suited to trainers than those new strappy heels that match so well with your dress.\nBecause you wouldn\u2019t drive. Good god no! Traffic jams and parking nightmares and one way systems, plus the fact that you probably couldn\u2019t afford to run a car because of your extortionate public transport costs (plus paying through the nose to rent a flat the size of a shoebox). That\u2019s why women can be seen traversing the pavements in business suits and sneakers on their way to offices where they\u2019ll change into heels when safely at their desk.\nThe reason for my vitriolic London rant? Today! I had a meeting in London today, for work. I had to catch a 6.30am train (that\u2019s not London\u2019s fault, I know). There were issues with my pre-booked tickets (also not London\u2019s fault). Here\u2019s the bit that\u2019s London\u2019s fault.\nThe underground. Queuing to get on an escalator to get to correct platform.\nTemperatures increasing the lower you get, so that even in winter when you\u2019re wrapped up against the elements it\u2019s too hot. Standing crammed against strangers in an overstuffed carriage and hoping everyone remembered to use deodorant that morning.\nTourists. Everywhere! Wheeling suitcases, taking up space, stopping without warning or running over your feet.\nHow do people do it every day?!\nAnd of course things weren\u2019t helped by the fact that the Victoria line \u2013 the one and only tube line that would get me to where I needed to be \u2013 was closed. So, all of a sudden, the life source of London \u2013 moving people around seamlessly and methodically, away from the unpredictability of traffic jams and delivery drivers and all those things which can slow a vehicle above ground \u2013 came to a halt. Not so bad if you know what the alternatives are. A pain in the ass if you don\u2019t.\nNow, I\u2019m not completely callous and heartless, so the fact that the line closure was due to a fatality on the line did temper my annoyance somewhat. But being told I needed to catch \u201cthe number 24, from behind that building\u201d wasn\u2019t exactly the hand holding I needed. \u201cThat building\u201d didn\u2019t have an obvious \u201cback\u201d. It had sides, which I had to wander around. It also had many many bus stops on it\u2019s perimeter.\nThe upshot was that I found the bus stop. The bus turned up quickly. The driver looked at me like I was trying to pull a fast one when I explained that the Victoria Line wasn\u2019t working and told me that I would have to justify this to the ticket inspector if he got on the bus, but he didn\u2019t charge me. And, unlike being underground, you get to see more of this great city.\nLike the building work.\nOh, and some more building work (seriously, it\u2019s everywhere you look).\nThe great range of well thought out and well appointed apartments, where you can sit outside and admire the building work while breathing in genuine London smog.\nThe bright red double decker buses, snaking across the city at a snail\u2019s pace.\nOf course there are some great sights too, although how much notice you would take if you were seeing them on a daily basis is questionable.\nTrafalgar Square and Nelson\u2019s Column\nThe cenotaph in Whitehall, covered in fresh wreaths following the Battle of Gallipoli memorial parade at the weekend\nBeautiful and imposing buildings with architectural influences from across the centuries\nGood old London boozers.\nQuite a lot of photographs for one bus journey, yes? That\u2019s because it took a whole bloody hour instead of what would have been a 10 minute tube journey. It took 8 minutes to get across one set of traffic lights when there was only one vehicle in front of us. The bus driver squeezed in a space alongside a lorry that was so tight the two vehicles were touching each other. And neither driver acknowledged the bump or challenged the other one.\nPresumably because, well, that\u2019s London for ya.\nMalaga \u2013 way more than just an airport\nMy travel retrospective yesterday got me thinking about past travels and city breaks.\nI love getting away for a weekend. Short breaks concentrate your efforts in terms of seeing everything and doing stuff. Whilst not the most relaxing of times, I always feel fulfilled and satisfied by just how much I\u2019ve managed to do. No time for having a lie in or an afternoon nap. It\u2019s all about cramming it all in.\nQuite often a city break for us can stem from seeing a cheap flight and investigating whether the destination is worth visiting. Which is how we ended up in Malaga 5 years ago.\nFor most Malaga is a gateway to the Costas. Brits who have holiday homes in Spain flock to the airport, or through the airport, from the beginning of the sunny season through til the end. Families on their two week escape looking for sea, sun and sand will land at the airport and be whisked away by tour operator coaches to their coastal destination of choice. But there is so much more to Malaga.\nI don\u2019t recall what made me look into it as a destination in itself, but I was so glad I did. Husband wasn\u2019t convinced but I implored him to trust me. In mid April, flying out on a Thursday, flights were still reasonable and we got a basic but modern, adequate and well situated IBIS hotel at a steal. The actual trip cost us around \u00a3100 each for two nights.\nFirst things first\u2026Malaga is very Spanish. Which seems a case of stating the bleeding obvious, but it\u2019s true. Because it\u2019s not a tourist destination there is no \u201cneed\u201d for everyone to speak English. As a result (and refreshingly so) Spanish is the first language. There is a need to communicate via pigeon English and pointing at menus when ordering food. Shops don\u2019t have English signs. There\u2019s a real feel of being in Spain, despite the influx of Brits through the vicinity on a daily basis.\nMalaga, for me, has it all. The climate (it was 25 degrees in the day and around 15 degrees at night, and that was end of April), the food (bars and cafes serving authentic tapas, and tiny backstreet alley restaurants delivering the best paella ever for about 10 euros), the architecture (white washed buildings, cathedrals and a castle in the hills) and the sea (it\u2019s on the coast. Who knew?!)\nOh, and when we arrived, they\u2019d had a film festival in the city, so there was a red carpet running through the pedestrian area. And not to welcome us, as I thought might be the case.\nI\u2019ll let the pictures do the talking,\nMalaga is all about timing. Due to it\u2019s popularity for reaching coastal destinations flights can actually be prohibitively expensive in summer. But time it right early or late in the season, with a mid week flight, and it\u2019s well worth a visit.\nThe French Coast \u2013 a look back and a peek forward\n2 weeks today I\u2019ll be on a plane to France, hurrah! Invariably it will be wet and dull in the UK, in true bank holiday style, so I\u2019m making the most of it by jetting off for 3 days in Nice, on the French Riviera.\nLiving in land locked Birmingham, it\u2019s always good to get to the coast, especially when it\u2019s as stunning as this. The Cote d\u2019Azur has a micro climate and 200-250 days of sunshine each year, so I\u2019m hopeful that early May will be warm and pleasant, and I might even get to dip my toes in that stunning blue sea.\nAs well as a stunning coastline, Nice has beautiful architecture, lots of greenery and a colourful Old Town that I\u2019m looking forward to wandering around.\nIt\u2019s 5 and a half years since I was last on the French Coast. We went to Marseille for a our first wedding anniversary, and totally fell in love with it. Just 6 hours door to door, from home via Birmingham airport, it\u2019s a gem of a place and we immediately declared it our weekend bolthole when we fancied getting away. Unfortunately Ryanair had other ideas and cancelled the route soon afterwards so we haven\u2019t been back since, but I would definitely return.\nTwit of the Day award\u2026\n\u2026goes to the order packers at H&M who, instead of packing my (admittedly very large, but mainly because of their blinkin\u2019 bloomin\u2019 sizing) order into multiple manageable boxes, sent me this:\nWhich is so big, it did this:\nThe cardboard handles broke as I tried to lift it, so I don\u2019t know how the courier managed to lug it up the stairs without splitting it further.\nOr how he\u2019ll get it back down.\nCome on H&M, where\u2019s your common sense?!\nCategories: Clothes Maketh the (Wo)man, Life and Living\nI start my new job tomorrow. And I have a problem.\nActually, I have multiple problems. I\u2019ve been out of work for 3 weeks. That in itself is a huge change of pace. I\u2019ve kept a routine and made sure I\u2019ve been getting up early (although the odd afternoon nap may have crept in). But I\u2019ve been eating when it suits me, doing what I want, reading blogs, reading books, sitting in the sun, planting my balcony boxes, visiting family. All stuff that will come to an abrupt end tomorrow.\nAnother problem is the travelling. My old job was a commute of 8 miles total per day. My new job is a 60 mile round trip. That means a complete change of morning routine, leaving home earlier, and getting home later. Couple that with the fact that husband has also changed jobs recently, working closer to home, and that means we will clash. He\u2019ll be at home getting ready when I am. That has never happened, in the whole of our 10 year relationship. I foresee arguments!\nAnd food! In my old job I was able to pop home for lunch. Working 30 miles away makes that absolutely impossible, so I\u2019ll also have to factor in making and taking food with me.\nAs well as the usual \u201cwill I be what they expect?\u201d, \u201cwill I be good at the job?\u201d, \u201cwill I fit in?\u201d, \u201cwhere are the toilets?\u201d, \u201chow do I change the photocopier paper?\u201d worries.\nFirst world problems or what?!\nAnyway, back to THE PROBLEM.\nWhat to wear?????\nBeing vain and shallow and pathetically self conscious (in a good way, obvs), clothes are a massive part of being me and being confident. But I\u2019ve been thrown a curve ball. My new workplace has a casual dresscode. WHAT??? I\u2019ve never worked anywhere with a casual dresscode. I can\u2019t crossover my work and non-work wardrobes. They have to stay separate. If I wear work shoes out of work it messes with my head. I can\u2019t use a non work bag for work. I\u2019ll have none of this \u201cmake your clothes work hard for you\u201d. I don\u2019t want double the wear for my money, I want to compartmentalise my life. Work clothes for work. Casual clothes for outside of work.\nOf course, as has been pointed out to me, I don\u2019t have to conform. But being the new girl (I use the term girl loosely; birth certificate says otherwise) is enough to set me apart, without turning up in my usual work attire of towering heels and dresses.\nI\u2019ve reached the conclusion that flat shoes are one of the differences between smart and casual. I\u2019ve never EVER worn flat shoes for work. Apart from on casual days (the irony). And I can\u2019t do ballet flats. As much as I like them on other people, they just make my feet look like boats (they\u2019re not, they\u2019re feet). I\u2019m only a size 6, but they look wide and long and just weird. Plus I\u2019m very much back into pointed shoes at the moment. But even before then, ick. Also, I\u2019m slightly smaller than a 6, actually. I step out of most court shoes. So straps are generally a must for me to keep shoes on my feet.\nThese from Matalan fit the bill perfectly for me. Pointed, with ankle straps, and reduced to just \u00a38 per pair.\nI\u2019ve actually been wearing the black pair during my time off this week. Which defeats the object of work vs non work wardrobe. I like that they show a bit of toe cleavage (I know that\u2019s a no-no for some people, but I\u2019m a fan).\nUsually I would have bought these for casual wear. And I like them for that purpose. But obviously, because of my own rules, I now have to make that decision between work or non-work. Or get over my own own rules.\nWhile I realise these have heels, I think these boots bridge the smart casual gap (I\u2019m not sure I can do full on casual all the time, and I need to keep my calf muscles in practice so can\u2019t wear flats all the time). \u00a325.\nAnd the other key to dress down is basic tops that I can add jewellery and scarves to for interest (grey \u00a38 / khaki \u00a37)\nAnd I suppose jeans will have to feature. This goes against everything I\u2019ve ever known. This may be my one concession to keeping work and casual separate. \u2018Cos jeans are just jeans.\nI\u2019ll be repurposing existing work clothes in a different way \u2013 crepe shift dresses with chunky biker boots, jersey midi skirts with flat sandals.\nSo what will I wear tomorrow? I have no bloody idea! And I\u2019m trying to put off thinking about it until I really have to. Because that\u2019s when the real world kicks in. Eek.\nA great bank holiday Monday\nCategories: Food Glorious Food, Life and Living, Music to my Ears\nHere\u2019s what I got up to.\nWe drove to Clent Hills for some sunshine and fresh air and beautiful views.\nThe rest of Birmingham had the same idea and it was manic. No parking spaces and an impatient husband conspired against us.\nSo we came home and went out locally.\nWe watched great blues and jazz music c/o Moseley\u2019s best pub on a sunny day, The Prince of Wales.\nHannah Johnson and The Broken Hearts are a great Country band with a sweet female vocalist, a cool steel guitarist, an amazing lead guitarist and a double bassist. Double bass is my favourite instrument.\nSo we drank some cocktails (an Old Fashioned for him and a hmm.a.hmm.aaaa.hmm for me\u2026I can\u2019t remember the name, but it contained gin and elderflower).\nAnd then went for Moroccan food, starting with mussels with chilli which, I am so hooked on, I can\u2019t have anything else when I eat here.\nMuch love for Bank Holiday!\nNo, I haven\u2019t gone all Alan Partridge and I\u2019m not referring to the Abba song. I\u2019m talking about interviews. I had my first job interview for 8 years today. I got to thinking about the whole process, and how we\u2019re so keen to impress, but how it\u2019s actually a two way street.\nA job interview is as much about the candidate finding out if the job role is right for them as it is about the interviewer finding the right person for the job. You may have seen a job description, or have a knowledge of the company, but a lot of it is about the feeling you get \u2013 from the people and the place. Is it a nice working environment? Can you envision yourself there? Are the interviewers your kind of people, can you see that your personalities will work together? A job is so much more than whether or not you\u2019re capable of doing what\u2019s required of you.\nI\u2019m very keen not to rush into anything even though I obviously need a job! Redundancy is a massive shock but also a massive opportunity (for me) to do something different. Not just to settle or panic, but to make a measured move that is going to give me job satisfaction. Redundancy pay gives me some financial freedom so that I don\u2019t have to get another job immediately, although of course it would be nice if I could find employment and then bank that cash (or spend it on shoes).\nSo, how did my interview go? I\u2019m not a very good judge of these things, so its hard to tell. But I answered all the questions competently, felt confident in what I was talking about and also allowed my personality to show through as well. And that\u2019s enough for me.",

        "title": "Adventures in Mom-ing (1st post)",
        "raw_content": "Hey all!! It has been a LONG while since I have posted anything! In fact, I think the last time I blogged, my baby was almost 17 weeks...or something like that. And now...we are weeks away from her third birthday! Time flies! (Honestly...whether or NOT you are having fun, time zooms! Can we all agree on that?) In the time away from blogging, I have discovered something: I LOVE talking about all things motherhood! Partially because I LOVE being a mom (like, honestly...God is amazing and He really knows ALL things! He gave me THE BEST first child!!!!!!!!!!!) and partially because I think women need to know that there is support available...and that we are not alone, whether we love motherhood, loathe it or something in between! So, between talking to some friends who are also \"new\" mothers--they have children under three--and talking to some friends who are expecting (YAY, new babies!), I have decided to start blogging about my \"Adventures in Mom-ing\"! (As my intro to this blog states, I like to make up words! \"Mom-ing\" is one of them!) I will make an effort to post more, and not just about motherhood and all the UPS and DOWNS and all the UP-ish DOWNS and all the DOWN-ish UPS, but a good majority will probably be dedicated to raising this true \"mini me\" (in so many ways) of mine!\nSo, first...why that name for the motherhood posts? Well, for starters, I LOVED the movie Adventures in Babysitting as a kid! (If you don't know about this movie, we CAN'T speak until you watch it! Now...keep in mind, it's nearly 30 years old and I probably haven't seen it in 20! But...it is the principle!) But I MOSTLY chose that name because, honestly, motherhood is CHOCK full of adventures of all kinds--ones that make you giddily happy, deeply sad, immensely proud, gravely disappointed, and every other emotion possible (and my baby is only 2!)! Some adventures are solely about me/my feelings/thoughts/experiences or outlook as a mom. Others are solely about my Baby Pumpkin, some great thing she did or said or some UN-great thing she did or said. Still others are a mix of both, what she said and then how it made me feel! Like I said, I want to talk about the good, the bad AND the ugly!\nSo...what is the first adventure? I went over and over, in my head, what to discuss first! Should it be the time I let my baby girl eat cookies for breakfast--relax, I think it was just ONE cookie and that wasn't the ONLY thing she had--or the more than one time she has left my mom's house with no bottoms on (because I have forgotten her bag of extra clothes...or i forgot to restock the bag!)? No...I can talk about those later! Should it be how she is already telling me what she wants to wear (and does NOT want to wear)? Plenty of time for those posts! My first adventure is about JUST that...the fact that this is MY adventure in mom-ing! In the recent past (as in...a few months ago), I came to realize that, although I did NOT think so, I was comparing myself to so many people around me...even as I shouted (internally and externally, figuratively and sometimes, well...) that this is MY child and I am HER mother and we'll do things according to what is best for us and our family...I was still asking certain questions to get validation for certain things I was doing or certain feelings I was having. For example, I am 37 and as previously stated, my Baby Pumpkin will be 3 in a few weeks. When I was getting ready to turn 3, my mom was heading towards her 27th birthday. She also had a newborn son. (As, my brother was born on June 11th and I turned 3 on July 3.) Also, when my mom turned 37, my brother and I were 10 & 13, respectively. Just keep that in mind as I make my point...I had been really tired in the recent past! (I realized I need to TAKE MY MEDS without EVER missing--more on that in another post, perhaps--and that I needed to get back into taking vitamins!) I started asking my mom if she was tired ALL THE TIME when we were younger. She said, basically, \"Um, no!\" So...I started off, to myself and in defense of myself, with the facts listed above. \"She was TEN years younger than I am when I was 2 & 3.\" \"When she was my current age, we were a teen and almost a teen!\" I had this entire internal conversation, and it made me realize...I was comparing myself to my mom (like I had done with my mother-in-law, aunts, friends, celebs and whomever else!) But this is MY motherhood...and even if my mom (who was, and still is, a HECK of a mom) was not tired all the time, like I was feeling...it doesn't matter...because that was HER experience! This is mine! I don't have to feel inferior because my mom had more energy than I did. At the end of the day, I am not my mom (or anyone else)! I knew that in so many areas of my life...but when I became a mother, somehow I lost sight of the fact that comparing myself to anyone else is pointless! Of course I want her advice (and my MIL's, my pastor's, and trusted friends)...but it IS OK to feel however I feel about MY motherhood AND all the happenings therein and thereof!\nThat's why I plan to blog about this ...so that people can see it is OK to feel however you want! People won't always agree with my decisions, reactions or thoughts...but that's perfectly fine! This space, \"Adventures in Mom-ing\", is a place to come and see that it's OK if you had to nurse your baby while you were brushing your teeth or if you wanted to cry every time your baby cried when you brought him or her home from the hospital or if you DID cry every time he or she cried! It's OK if you feel like you have the smartest daughter on the planet (like I THINK) OR if you wonder if your son WILL actually grow into his hands & feet like you were told because you \"feel some type of way\" about having a child with big hands and feet! All are welcome here! Remember, this is a place for the good, the bad and the ugly! Please feel WELCOME!\nSherri Dickerson said\u2026\nI love your post and you know I love you! I Avnet wait to read more! Go Ton'\n*cant wait...",

        "title": "Minorities Are Still More Likely to Be Stopped by the NYPD \u2013 Too Dope Hip Hop",
        "raw_content": "Ever since the New York Police Department\u2019s controversial stop-and-frisk policy was ruled unconstitutional back in 2013, the city\u2019s been trying to shrink the number of stops officers make and avoid disproportionately targeting people of color. Now a new report suggests the department\u2019s made some significant progress over the past couple years by cutting down on reported street stops, but it\u2019s still stopping racial minorities more than whites.\nThe report, released Tuesday by a court-appointed monitor, looked at the number of reported stops from 2013 to 2015, the New York Times reports. It found that the number of total stops citywide had dropped by more than 95 percent\u2014from roughly 191,000 in 2013 to about 22,000 in 2015. Plus, the department became more efficient by stopping fewer innocent people and only more people only suspected of committing serious crimes.\nBut the NYPD is still disproportionately targeting racial minorities. Although the report found the racial disparity in stops was \u201ctrending in the right direction,\u201d cops still stopped to search blacks and Hispanics more than any other racial group.\nOver that three year period, the proportion of blacks stopped by NYPD officers remained relatively steady at about 53 percent, while Hispanics accounted for roughly 29 percent of stops. Whites accounted for just 11 percent. Additionally, the report found blacks and Hispanics were more likely to be subjected to force than their white and non-Hispanic counterparts.\nThe Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR)\u2014a plaintiff in the case that wound up deeming stop-and-frisk unconstitutional\u2014issued a press release stating that though \u201csome progress has been made,\u201d the results of the report aren\u2019t great.\n\u201cThe severe racial disparities in who gets stopped persist,\u201d the CRR wrote. \u201cThe NYPD still has much work to do to end racial bias in its stop-and-frisk practices.\nFor advocates like the Communities United for Police Reform (CUPR), however, the results of the report don\u2019t represent meaningful change.\n\u201c[They] only serve to uphold what is far more than a tale, but a reality of two cities,\u201d CUPR told the New York Daily News. \u201cNew Yorkers have vastly different experiences with policing determined by their race.\u201d\nPREVIOUS POST Previous post: People Explain Why They Bailed on a Relationship in Six Words\nNEXT POST Next post: 'BONG APP\u00c9TIT' Throws a Cannabis-Infused Cuban Dinner Party",

        "title": "Safeguarding Your Investment",
        "raw_content": "Leave a comment Friday, January 06, 2017 / Published in Investments\nToday, people store almost everything on their computers. For a business, it can consist of items like their accounting department, marketing analysis, research, Microsoft programs, inventory, the human resource department, email and training programs. Many people also work from home or use their computers to store their bills, photos, and other personal information. When an error message occurs and indicates that files are lost or corrupt or your computer crashes, it can mean a long and tedious process to recover the information. And, sometimes the files are overwritten, and the files are gone for good.\nImage by Noah (ax0n)\nAs technology continues to move into the digital future, it becomes almost essential to have a backup of your files and for a company to invest in hiring a recovery service that uses a certified data recovery clean room. The reason for this is simple, when you open a hard drive and expose it, it instantly collects dust and minuscule airborne particles unseen by the naked eye. This can destroy the hard drive quickly. A recovery service that uses a clean room has a limited number of professionals who have access to the restricted area and they dress in much the same manner as a doctor with gowns and shoe coverings that are free from outside particles. These are highly trained individuals who know the importance of their work ahead and they take it seriously. This type of environment gives you the best chance possible for restoring your system to its original state. A company like Secure Data Recovery Service has a Class 10 ISO 4 Certification and uses an air filtration system that\u2019s state-of-the-art.\nIn addition to a clean room, you also want to do a background check on a company before sending your company\u2019s information through the mail. Check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and make sure their rating is at least an A. Also read the reviews written by prior clients. This will give you an insight of their business practice.\nThere are many data recovery services out there and the process of selecting one can seem overwhelming. After all, your business depends on their success in restoring the lost or damaged files. A company like Data Recovery Service gives you access to a variety of options including standard, expedited and emergency (within 24 hours of receiving the hard drive) services. They also have customer service representatives available to answer any questions or concerns. They can walk you through the process, step by step, and give you how each scenario may play out. Once the hard drive is received and looked at by qualified, skilled and trained professional, they will call to advise the damage and what to expect.\nThere are many reasons that a hard drive can fail or lose files. You can experience an electrical failure, a head crash, controller failure, human error and viruses. Imagine one day without having access to your email, business reports, analytical charts or other marketing research. What could happen? It\u2019s a scenario you don\u2019t want to use the wait and see motto. Even if you\u2019re a small business, your dependency is pretty much the same. The probability of you having hard copies (paper files) on everything is slim. Since many businesses, large and small, now use scanners to enter their receipts, letters and other important information to save valuable storage space, much would be lost.\nAs the world continues to rely on computers to save time and store information, it becomes imperative to have the resources available to backup and restore files.

        "raw_content": "STOCKHOLM/LONDON (Reuters) \u2013 Two Americans and a Briton won the 2018 Nobel Prize for Chemistry on Wednesday for harnessing the power of evolution to generate novel proteins used in everything from environmentally friendly detergents to cancer drugs.\nPictures of the 2018 Nobel Prize laureates for chemistry: Frances H. Arnold of the United States, George P. Smith of the United States and Gregory P. Winter of Britain are displayed on a screen during the announcement at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, in Stockholm, Sweden, October 3, 2018. Jonas Ekstromer/TT News Agency/via REUTERS\nThe fruits of this work include the world\u2019s top-selling prescription medicine \u2014 the antibody injection Humira sold by AbbVie for treating rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases.\nFrances Arnold of the California Institute of Technology, George Smith from the University of Missouri and Gregory Winter of Britain\u2019s MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology were awarded the prize for pioneering science in enzymes and antibodies.\nArnold, only the fifth woman to win a chemistry Nobel, was awarded half of the nine million Swedish crown ($1 million) prize while Smith and Winter shared the other half.\n\u201cSome people breed cats and dogs. I breed molecules,\u201d Arnold told Reuters after learning of the award, which she said had come as a complete surprise.\nThe Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said Arnold had transformed science by using the principles of evolution \u2014 genetic change and selection \u2014 and to evolve new types of proteins very fast.\nFILE PHOTO: Frances Arnold, Dick and Barbara Dickinson Professor of Chemical Engineering and Biochemistry, California Institute of Technology, participates in the Investing in the Future: Accelerating the Clean-Tech Revolution panel at the 2008 Milken Institute Global Conference in Beverly Hills, California April 30, 2008. REUTERS/Phil McCarten/File Photo\nHer research on enzymes \u2014 proteins that catalyze chemical reactions \u2014 laid the bedrock for the development of better industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals.\n\u201cThere are enzymes now in detergents that we use in our dishwasher and have been evolved by this process. There are also enzymes that can create new types of biofuels or that catalyze the formation of building blocks for new medicines,\u201d said chairman of the Nobel chemistry committee Claes Gustafsson.\n\u201cAll this you can do with enzymes that Frances Arnold has developed.\u201d\nSmith developed a method using a virus that infects bacteria to produce new proteins while Winter used the same phage display technique to engineer the evolution of antibodies, with the aim of producing more effective medicines.\nHumira, or adalimumab, was the first drug based on Winter\u2019s work to win regulatory approval in 2002. It has since gone on to become a blockbuster, with sales last year of $18 billion.\n\u201cWith this medicine, far fewer people with rheumatoid arthritis are forced to use a wheelchair,\u201d said immunologist Dan Davies of the University of Manchester.\nOther antibody drugs at the cutting edge of medicine use the same technology, including a number of treatments that have proved highly effective against cancer.\nWinter said he was surprised by the huge commercial success of antibody drugs, which he put down in large part to the high prices that drug companies have managed to charge for them.\n\u201cI had no idea they would be so commercially successful \u2026 it was a complete paradigm shift,\u201d he told reporters in a conference call. \u201cAntibodies as a pharmaceutical product are still growing great guns.\u201d\nFor the first time in decades, the Nobel line-up did not feature a literature award after a rift within the Swedish Academy over a rape scandal involving the husband of a board member left it unable to select a winner.\n(Nobel laureates graphic tmsnrt.rs/2y6ATVW)\nAdditional reporting by Brendan O\u2019Brien, Anna Ringstrom, Niklas Pollard, Simon Johnson and Helena Soderpalm, Editing by Richard Balmforth, William Maclean",

        "title": "A Few Reasons To Clean Your Chimney - when to call it quits on your old front door",
        "raw_content": "There is nothing like having a nice wood burning or gas fireplace in your home to create a sense of comfort and ambiance. It truly is nice to be able to put a fire on and just sit back and relax. Fireplaces are also very good at helping you save money on energy bills. While there are many benefits of a fireplace, it is very important that you clean the chimney of your fireplace often. Many people actually forget to clean a chimney which is very bad for a variety of reasons. Here are a few reasons you should clean your chimney.\nIf you are not getting your chimney cleaned then you run a high risk of starting a chimney fire. There are a few ways that a chimney fire can start. One way is when creosote that is found in an unclean chimney actually ignites and starts to burn within the chimney. This is how many chimney fires actually start, but once they start they are able to spread with ease. It is also common for sparks to jump from an unclean chimney and land on the roof, or even in small cracks of the chimney. Cleaning your chimney can help prevent these problems.\nIf you are having a hard time controlling the smoke from your fire then you may have a chimney that is clogged up. When you are burning fossil fuels or wood then you are going to have a buildup of soot and creosote. This can make it hard for the smoke to escape the chimney. The problem is that there is nowhere for the smoke to go except back down the chimney and into you home. Often the smoke entering the home will start slowly so you do not even recognize the problem. However, over time you can have a lot of smoke damage to your home.\nWhen you are burning wood or fossil fuels in your home, you are going to be increasing the likelihood of smoke and carbon monoxide poisoning in your home. The probability of being poisoned by toxic fumes increases if the smoke and and other by products of burning are not able to escape the chimney because it is blocked off. You do not want to put yourself at risk, so just be sure to clean your chimney.\nTalk with a company like Allstate Chimney Service about keeping your chimney clean.",

It will be on its own ballot.\nAfter extensive analysis, the RSU board determined that this amendment will not affect any other RSU towns financially, or in any other way.\nThe amendment will end Alna\u2019s current practice of taxpayer-funded private K-8 school tuition for children who become Alna residents after June 30.\nAlna will, however, continue to pay private K-8 tuition for all children living in Alna as of June 30, for as long as they live here. This change harms no current Alna resident.\nIn addition, all current and future Alna students will have taxpayer-funded K-8 public school choice and public or private high school choice.\nThe townspeople of Alna voted overwhelmingly in March to end subsidy of private schools with public, taxpayer money. This policy, which we never chose, has made us a magnet for families who move to Alna just to access private school subsidy, because we are one of only two towns in Maine that have this benefit. As a result, we have the highest taxes in the RSU and in Lincoln County, and more children per capita than any other RSU town. Between 2013 and 2017, 33 children moved to Alna. Thirty of those children (91 percent) enrolled in private schools. Most of the children of our long-term families attend public schools.\nWe are a small residential town with no commercial tax base. We cannot afford to continue this policy. In addition, about half-a-million Alna dollars are now diverted from public to private education every year.\nPlease support Alna\u2019s vote. Vote YES on the Alna Amendment.\nhttp://townline.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/TownLineBanner.jpg 0 0 Website Editor http://townline.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/TownLineBanner.jpg Website Editor2018-06-06 14:28:222018-06-06 14:28:41Letters to the Editor: Support Alna\u2019s citizens\nLetters to the Editor: Please help your friends and neighbors in Alna REVIEW POTPOURRI \u2013 Jazz musician: Stan Kenton; Comedian: Robert Benchley;...",

The player is charged with helping the 'Vaus' overcome the security systems, as well as the many enemies that guard them, before finally finding and destroying 'DOH', the alien responsible for the attack.\nArkanoid is an update of the early ball and paddle video games - and specifically of Atari's 1978 classic, \"Super Breakout\" - in which the player takes control of a paddle at the bottom of the screen and must use it to deflect a ball into rows of bricks at the top of the screen, thus destroying them and, eventually, clearing the screen to progress to the next level.\nAs well as impressive and colourful graphics, Arkanoid introduced a number of new elements to the classic bat 'n' ball gameplay. Certain bricks, when destroyed, would release a power-up - in the form of a falling capsule. the player had to catch the capsule to retrieve the power-up. Among the many enhancements the power-ups provided were an increased 'bat' size, multiple balls, 'sticky' ball (which would stick to the bat and could be released when the player chose) and even a laser, which allowed the player to shoot the bricks.\nDownload Arkanoid for MAME 1.0 Now\nBookmark Arkanoid for MAME 1.0",

        "title": "IN RAJASTHAN",
        "raw_content": "Jaipur is Rajasthan's biggest city, a fantasy in pink, actually a shade somewhere between pink and ocher, with which the facades of all the buildings within the old walls and the walls themselves and the majestic gateways are painted. Mark Twain, who visited in the 1870s, thought of it as the color of \"strawberry ice cream,\" but I think he took more than a little literary license with that description. read more\nBuilt in the 18th century by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh and planned down to the last detail according to precepts laid down in the Shilpa Shastra, an ancient Hindu architectural treatise, Jaipur has a surprisingly contemporary feel about it because it is laid out in a grid pattern, as, by the way, were the most ancient cities on the Indian subcontinent, which were flourishing in 3500 BC.\nIt is a throbbing, vibrant place, full of color, and not only pink-ocher either. When you get up close to the shops under the shaded arcades of the bazaars, you see that they are packed with hand-dyed cloth of every color of the rainbow \u2013 hot reds, pinks, maroons, oranges and yellows predominate, but blues and purples aren't left out either. And a lot of it is meant for men \u2013 for turbans as much as eight yards long that are wrapped around the head and look like beautiful and showy large baskets or pillows. That sounds ridiculous I know, but the Rajputs pull it off with dash, style and character.\nCamels pull wooden carts fitted with truck wheels along the city streets to deliver goods, as do massive white Brahma bulls, their large humps swaying to the rhythm of their gait. Monkeys can be seen on the ledges of the buildings going about their business on a higher than human level. The facades might have been made for them with all their ledges and projecting cornices and bay windows covered in stone latticework screens to let in air and light and protect the women inhabitants from prying, lascivious eyes, but which also provide neat hand and footholds for the monkeys. And electric wires serve as simian suspension bridges for crossing the roads.\nJodhpur is as unplanned and spontaneous a city as Jaipur is planned and organized. Dominated at its northern end by a 1200-foot high piece of rock, atop of which broods the overpowering Mehrangarh Fort, traditional home of the rajas, it is a presence that cannot be ignored. In its own way the town is as colorful as Jaipur for many of the houses are painted a startling electric blue and the inhabitants, many of whom have tribal roots, are even more colorfully garbed than their counterparts in the \"Pink City.\" Like their disorganized town, their costumes are a dazzling cacophony of colors that no description could do justice to. Turban styles vary from region to region and the ones here are often of gargantuan proportions, the cloth formed into hanks and wrapped in coils so it looks as if the wearers are sporting fabulous serpents on their heads. Carol wondered how I would look wearing such a turban instead of my red bandana. By the way, \"bandana\" is actually a Hindi word. From the verb to tie or bind, it refers not to the fact that a bandana is a kerchief that is tied around the head, but to the process of tying off portions of the cloth and then dying it \u2013 tie-dying, for which Rajasthan is renowned.\nThe palace in the fort is among the best preserved and most evocative royal residences in India. There are immense views from the ramparts looking out over the desert and over the city itself, the blue of the houses startling even from way up here. The rooms are sumptuous with gold and deep reds and colored glass \u2013 whole walls of it \u2013 and mirrors galore. Walls and floors are decorated with a mind-boggling array of designs and patterns that no one in his right mind would ever think of juxtaposing, yet incredibly, it all works together harmoniously.\nOur hotel, a converted nobleman's home, was directly under the fort walls and the view from the rooftop restaurant had nothing in it to remind us of the historical era we're currently in.\nPolo is originally an Indian game. And Jodhpur is the center for breeding the fine Marwari polo ponies, Marwar being the name of the erstwhile state of which Jodhpur was the capital. Hardly ponies, these are gigantic steeds: slim, muscular, virile and spirited. One of the rajas, Pratap Singh \u2013 an avid horseman (he virtually lived on horseback) and polo player (as most were) \u2013 got tired of wearing out the insides of the knees of his riding pants with each match and designed a new style of riding breeches that have ever since been known by the city's name \u2013 jodhpurs.\nWe spent one night in a village in the desert, sleeping in a round thatched hut in a farmyard surrounded by cows, goats and camels. The evening, night and morning air was so embracing \u2013 cool but not cold \u2013 it seemed as if it was part of my body and awareness of it disappeared. The space was vast and the utter silence of the desert was among the loudest sounds I've ever heard.\nWe left Jodhpur at 6:30 and were escorted out of town by the camel-mounted brass band of the Indian Army's camel corps. When they saw us they struck up a spirited marching tune. They were quite together, and believe me, it's no easy feat to play an instrument at all let alone achieve such unity and precision on the back of a camel, for while the camel lopes the rider bounces.\nVery soon we entered the scrub of desert country and the territory of the Bishnoi tribe. \"Bishnoi\" means twenty-nine, and these people are so called because they follow twenty-nine precepts: no killing or hunting, no intoxicants (alcohol, tobacco, opium, even tea and coffee), no felling of trees, no work for women during the days of their menstrual periods, strict vegetarianism, to name a few of them. They worship a god called Jambhu or Jambhaji, an earth deity; and like earth divinities elsewhere in India, it has no image, quite extraordinary for a country that has so many images of its millions of gods. We took a detour to visit the god's main temple on the site where 363 people were killed by the army of one of the Jodhpur rajas in 1787. Actually, they sacrificed themselves to protect the trees of their land from the king's desire for timber, particularly the Khejri trees (prosopis cinerari ), which have edible pods and leaves that are used for fodder; even the bark can be eaten in times of famine. It is an amazing tree, remarkably well adapted to the desert with roots that may grow a hundred feet down into the earth to reach water. The Bishnois embraced the trees and fell with them as the raja's troops mercilessly cut them down, tree and Bishnoi indiscriminately. One of those old trees still stands. Venerable and composed of many trunks fused together, it has narrow leaves, hard and spiky like many desert plants. It lives in a walled enclosure surrounded by hundreds of young trees of the same species. Scores of peacocks, unconcerned with human presence, peck around for food beneath this leafy canopy. This area is home to the rare black buck antelope with their remarkable spiral horns, which graze at the edges of the Bishnois' fields not far from the roadsides, fully aware, it seems, that no one here will harm them. At the back of the compound stands the temple, an unadorned cement block. Inside, on a platform, was a beautifully wrought blue-green box in which an oil lamp burned. This was Jambhu, god of the earth. Above the box, a poster of one of the sect's past gurus was fastened to the wall. \"Jambhu's disciple,\" said the young priest who had been showing us around. It was a reminder that Indian gods are much closer to humans than are Western ones; they move (or at least used to move) among men and teach them.\nWe stopped in a small town at the luxuriously restored palace of a minor royal family, vassals of the rajas of Jodhpur. After Indian Independence in 1947, the rajas were deprived of their vast feudal estates and their land distributed to the peasants who worked it. They did continue to receive an income, the so-called privy purses, from the Indian Government for years, but in the 1970s Mrs. Gandhi discontinued that practice, which had come to be considered an unjustifiable drain on the Indian government's coffers. So to compensate for this lost income, many of the royal families refurbished and modernized their ancestral homes and turned them into heritage hotels. You cannot go far in Rajasthan without bumping into one. They vary from quite modest to utterly extravagant; and believe me, it is a real treat for tired, sweaty travelers to arrive at one of these oases of cool luxury.\nThese fort-palaces present an incongruous picture: rugged defensive walls with bastioned ramparts, moats and gateways with heavy doors that sport long steel spikes to make elephants think twice about ramming them. Inside these forbidding exteriors are utterly whimsical and delightful, virtually fairytale-like palaces. These are dwellings that seem to have nothing to do with war, valor and bloodshed. In fact the buildings seem swish and effeminate. But then so do the costumes of the rajas, their hairstyles, their jewelry and the outlandish coiffures they inflicted on their beards and mustaches.\nThis fort is more somber than most. The main fa\u00e7ade is of undressed red sandstone with a wide curved cornice framing a scalloped arched window above the main entrance. It is more tasteful than outlandish. The gardens are impeccably manicured and the pool was a delight.\nDriving through Rajasthani desert country, we passed large concentrations of camels, cows, bulls, goats and sheep herded by mustachioed men in massive turbans of shocking pink or blazing yellow or chartreuse, all dyed with what must be the same stuff they use to color jelly beans; and women with wide swaying ankle-length skirts, cleavage-revealing bodices and long scarves or odhnis, all in the most unlikely color combinations \u2013 skirt of orange, blue and purple worn with a monstrous Astroturf-green odhni, for example.\nIn a large market town, a smiling old couple led us to a modest restaurant. It served only one dish, dal batti, a uniquely Rajasthani preparation. Balls of coarsely ground wheat flour, each about the size of a squash ball, are baked in the coals of a fire until their centers are as soft as fresh bread and their crusts thick and hard as stone. They are impervious to all attempts to break them, short of taking a sledge hammer to them. But the waiter (who must have undergone years of training to perform this task) crushed them between his palms and then crumbled, actually sort of massaged them into large crumbs. Then he liberally poured ghee (that's clarified butter) over them until they were soaked through. A side dish of dal (a thick lentil soup) and another of yogurt accompanied the battis. Believe it or not, this description is actually making my mouth water.\nWe arrived in a small, quiet village as night fell. Here it was not the palace but old horse stables that were renovated to create a hotel. And they must have been in pretty bad condition because there was little evidence of them in the new construction; and the architect wisely did not try to make the structure look old. The rooms, arrayed around an open court, were nicely fitted out and opened onto a portico of pointed archways. The small courtyard garden, though not manicured and perfect, had a homey and comfortable ambience. Shortly after we arrived, the owner, a native of the village, and his companion, a Canadian woman who designed the hotel and who lives here for at least half the year, pulled in. We were the only guests and the four of us had a fine dinner out in the courtyard under the night sky.\nNext day ride we traveled on minor roads, so minor in fact that much of the route was on dirt tracks. We passed a single file of fifteen camels coming towards us on a narrow stretch of track. They were unperturbed as we came within inches of their wide padded hooves and still we didn't interrupt their slow-motion yet jaunty pace.\nWe crossed the Aravalis, the major range of mountains that roughly divides Rajasthan into two halves. They're not high by mountain standards, mere hills in fact (and very old in geological terms). Just at the bottom of the range we could see the road turn into switchbacks and snake up a mountain. And there, on the left, was a temple and we stopped, though this temple was an unremarkable concrete block with an ugly corrugated roof, but it was bedecked with flowers and colored pennants and hosted a large group of colorfully dressed tribal people: a festival was in progress.\nThe temple was dedicated to Vir Tejaji who is depicted as a Rajput, mustached and beturbaned, mounted on a horse; and here's the fascinating part, holding a serpent in front of his face and apparently kissing it. According to the legend, dacoits or bandits had rustled his father-in-law's cows and Tejaji went off in pursuit of them. On the way, he encountered a snake who tried to bite him. Tejaji pleaded with the serpent to allow him to complete his mission of recovering the cows and promised that he would present himself before the snake after having done so. The snake agreed. When Tejaji returned, victorious but bloodied all over from his encounter with the rustlers, the snake refused to bite him anywhere he had been wounded, which was everywhere on his body except for his tongue, and it was there that the snake mortally wounded him.\nThe snake was so impressed with Tejaji's virtue in keeping his promise to return to meet his fate that he made Tejaji into a demigod and gave him the power to spare from death any snakebite victim who ties an amulet in Tejaji's name. And to this day the priests of Tejaji's temples go into trance and suck the poison out of snakebites and then tie a thread around the wrist or ankle of the victim. And it is believed that no one so treated will die from the bite. Many recovered victims and current sufferers were gathered on this, Tejaji's feast day. We met a boy who had been bitten in the foot. The extremity was still swollen to several times its normal size, but the boy was on his way to recovery for he had been delirious with fever and in tremendous pain only a few days before. Now both those symptoms had disappeared and the swelling was diminishing too. Tejaji's treatment requires no medicine; coming to his temple, gazing at his image, having the wound sucked by a priest in trance and tying a thread in his name effects the cure.\nGoing up the range, the scenery was spectacular. Settlers lived here and there in these rugged hills grazing flocks of goats and cultivating the small plots they managed to carve out among the steep, rocky slopes.\nIn the late afternoon we reached a fairly large town, the old part inside medieval walls entered through a large gateway. Outside, the new part straggles along a highway and sprawls onto some new roads branching off it. The Hindu holiday of Diwali will occur tomorrow, on the night of the new moon, and the entire town is festooned with sparkling streamers strung over the streets.\nDiwali, the festival of lights, marks the return of the gods and heroes after their defeat of the forces of evil. All buildings, walls and gateways are lit up to show them the way and to celebrate their triumphal return. It is a new year's festival of sorts, beginning a new period after wiping the slate clean of sins and discarding old baggage. So houses are cleaned, new clothes are donned and businessmen tally and close their accounts and begin anew, marking the spot in their large red-covered ledgers with a swastika, the ancient symbol of good fortune. (The Hindu swastika is positioned flat side up, unlike the Nazi emblem in which a point is uppermost, a rotated form of the ancient symbol.)\nDiwali is also a festival in honor of the goddess of wealth, Lakshmi, whose picture hangs in most of the town's shops. She is a benevolent goddess, often shown standing between two elephants which anoint her with holy water sprayed from their trunks. She has four arms and hands; in one she holds a lotus blossom, symbol of the earth's spirituality; another produces a shower of coins from its outward-facing palm.\nThe fort-palace here is a fantasy. Begun in the seventeenth century, this sprawling building is composed of many wings constructed at different periods; and it shows influences of Hindu, Islamic and European Renaissance and Baroque styles. There are domes and stone umbrella-like pavilions and scalloped arches framing windows and entranceways. There are projecting balconies supported by ornate brackets. At night, the entire building is artfully illuminated producing a real fairytale effect. There are many-roomed suites decorated in decadent royal fashion with crystal or silver furniture and entire walls of colored glass or mirrors, actually hundreds of small convex mirrors. When the light is switched on, countless points of light appear, and as if that were not sufficient, reflections of those lights are reflected again and again ad infinitum. Some of the rooms have beautiful stone latticework screens over the windows that soften the light and let in cool breezes.\nWe stayed in a room on the ground floor at the back of the palace. There were only three rooms down there, all opening onto a small arched patio in the center of which a large swinging platform was suspended from the ceiling by heavy chains. Beyond the patio was a grassy garden surrounded by high walls and shaded by large trees. The whole area constituted a wing quite separate from the rest of the palace, connected to it only by a long, narrow flight of steep stone steps.\nIt was at the end of the 14th century. The raja of this place was already quite old when the king of a neighboring province sent his daughter to be married to his eldest son. But when she arrived at court, the son was absent or \"out of station\" as they say in modern-day India. So the ambassador who had escorted the intended bride presented her to the old king who, surrounded by his court, observed that his son would soon return and claim the girl, and then \"drawing his fingers over his mustaches,\" as the annals so quaintly put it, added, \"for I don't suppose you send such playthings to an old greybeard like me.\" This was considered a clever remark and was widely repeated. But when the son, the intended bridegroom, returned to court and heard of his father's jest he became offended at, to quote the annals again, \"delicacy being sacrificed to wit\" and refused to accept the girl as his bride. Yet she could not be sent back without offending her father, the king of the neighboring province, and giving such offense would not do. So the old king married her with the proviso that his son, the presumptive heir must swear to renounce his and his progeny's claim to the throne in favor of the offspring of his father's union with the young princess. Which he did, and then retired to this wing of the palace. This story is one of many that illustrate the characteristic Rajput qualities of immense pride, chivalry, honor and extreme emotional sensitivity, as well as a penchant for extraordinary self-sacrifice.\nThe custom here is to have before-dinner drinks with the royal family. The current raja, locally called the Rawal, is something of a Renaissance man. A retired history teacher at an exclusive prep school in a distant city, he is also an ornithologist, local historian, former big game hunter, honorary wildlife warden, and a connoisseur, revivalist, cataloguer and collector of miniature paintings of a now extinct school of Rajasthani painting. And he is an excellent raconteur as well.\nWhereas the Rawal was a slight and ordinary looking fellow, someone you would never think was of royal blood, though he had sparkling eyes and a lively expression, his wife, the Rajmata, was queenly in every way. She had the kind of beauty that some few older women have, glowing as if enveloped by a halo and seeming desirable at an age when most women's sensual attractiveness is but a distant memory. She was a gracious host and charming conversationalist, interested in everything we, and especially Carol, had to say. She also had an aristocratic hauteur, was critical of the tastes of the masses, especially of the (admittedly execrable) cement elephants that have become fashionable for framing the entrances to temples. When we mentioned that we had taken a local bus to visit a nearby temple, she visibly shuddered at the thought.\nWe visited a temple on the morning of the Diwali holiday. We had meant to walk there but some locals hailed a bus and it stopped for us. As we boarded, the passengers, turbaned men and bejeweled women, looked at us in amazement; then they all smiled. When we got under way every piece of metal in the vehicle began to rattle, each singing its own tune, due no doubt to the road's uneven surface but also to lots of loose screws.\nInside a large cavern, the temple, dedicated to the god Shiva, contains, unusually, two lingams or phallic emblems, Shiva's most common manifestation. They stood one in front of the other, the rear one, a five-foot tall slender stone column with two porcelain eyes inset and a mouth formed of three frangipani blossoms placed in a line, petals pressed against the stone and stems sticking out. Crescent moons (one of Shiva's symbols) were painted under the eyes, giving an impression of eye sockets. The lingam was crowned with a pile of rose petals and the whole \"face\" outlined by a garland of marigolds. Directly in front of that lingam was another, this one, a mere foot high or less, of rough black rock. And it is the main devotional object in this cave temple for it is said to be \"swayambhu,\" that is, self-manifested, not made by man but created by the god himself. It is the raison d'\u00eatre for the sacredness of this place.\nWe sat in the high cave next to a large stone statue of the bull Nandi, Shiva's vehicle, who sits outside every Shiva temple staring devotedly at the image of his Lord. Looking into the small chamber containing the lingams, we watched the priest's ritual activities, captivated by the grace of his complex movements and gestures and hypnotized by his resonant chanting of Sanskrit slokas. He and his assistants bathed the small swayambhu lingam with coconut water, anointed it with sandalwood paste and decorated it with rose blossoms, heaping them on the stone until they tumbled off in their abundance. Their final act was to place a coiled copper cobra, made especially for the purpose, over the lingam, the snake's hood spread as a protective umbrella over the ithyphallic god.\nUnusually, at this temple the priests must be unmarried, for in virtually all other Hindu temples, priests are family men; in fact it is practically a requirement that they be married. There is a celibate monastic tradition in India, but its adherents are seldom temple priests. In this respect Hinduism is similar to Eastern Christian Orthodoxy. But here, the priests must be celibate, and equally unusually, they inhabit a huge palace that had been built by a rich landlord about a mile from the temple. Now just recently the head priest, who had held his position for many years, was found (to use a Biblical turn of phrase) to be lying with a woman and so was fired from his job, forbidden from ever again performing rituals in the temple.\nThere's yet another story associated with this temple, albeit indirectly. The cave in which the temple is located is set into the side of a large rocky protuberance, a miniature stone mountain. On the other side of this mass of stone is another cave, this one a wide, very low gash in the rock. Twenty years or so ago, a dacoit or bandit (sometimes still referred to in India as a brigand) fleeing from the police took refuge in this cave. He had a stock of sesame oil cake with him for food. (Sesame is a local crop and extracting oil from the seeds a local industry. A large stone mortar holds the seeds and a stone pestle \u2013 made heavier by weighting it with a large rock \u2013 is attached to a wooden contraption harnessed to a Brahma bull who walks in circles and provides the power to rotate the pestle and crush and grind the seeds. The oil flows out through a channel carved into the rock of the mortar. The oil cake, the remainder of this process, is used for the most part as animal fodder but it is also mixed with sugar and sold as a sweet, which is both tasty and very nutritious.) The dacoit held out in his hideout for some time but eventually the police found him out and laid siege to the cave. Negotiations took place and a deal was reached by which the dacoit would surrender. But as he walked out of the cave, one of the policemen (no one knows or is willing to say who or why) shot him dead, a tragic breach of trust that has left a legacy of bitter feelings and suspicion, which remains to this day.\nLater that evening we heard this story a second time from the Rawal's younger brother who lives in a smaller (though still none too small) palace adjacent to the hotel. \"I was there,\" he said. \"I was in charge of that police contingent. But we never found out who shot him.\" I had detected an aura of sadness about this man even before he told us the story, and now I wonder if the subsequent course of his life hadn't been scarred by this incident of treachery that occurred on his watch.\nIn the afternoon, as the final decorations were being put in place for the evening's Diwali festivities, we walked through the bazaar. Long lines of small electric lights were being draped over the streets. Tiny clay saucers filled with oil, each with a cotton wick, were being laid out on every available surface and ledge, and more sparkling streamers were being hung. Firecrackers were being purchased from shops and makeshift stalls that were set up wherever there was space. Some vendors were even selling them from jute sacks hung on the handlebars of their bicycles.\nAt a teashop just down the hill from the palace's main gate, we met Johnny, sign painter, god-artist and magician and his companion, the chief engineer of a gem mine. The engineer had no official qualifications for his job, his abilities in this field being \"god's gift... no theory, no training, no school, practical knowledge only,\" as he informed us repeatedly. After tea, we walked together through the town, eventually winding up at Johnny's house where his wife and daughters served us lunch. Then we strolled some more, frequently stopping off at the houses and shops of Johnny's numerous friends and acquaintances where we were served sweets and endless cups of chai.\nAs evening fell, the lights were turned on all over town, the wicks in the clay saucers of oil were lit and shop keepers began to perform their pujas (devotions) to Lakshmi, goddess of wealth. Their shops had been transformed into ephemeral temples for the occasion, and they and their families were decked out in all their finery, especially their daughters, who were dolled up like goddesses: little Lakshmis for a day. We attended a puja at the mining engineer's home. He brought out tray after tray piled high with rough, uncut gems: emeralds, rubies, diamonds, tigers' eyes, sapphires and so on, placed them in front of an image of Lakshmi and recited mantras (or prayers) over them.\nThen, after darkness fell and just as firecrackers started exploding throughout the town, we bade goodnight to Johnny and the mining engineer and retreated to the safety of the palace, which was also lit up for Diwali with every ledge lined with flickering clay-saucer lamps. Even the hotel's cars, three white Ambassadors, the world's oldest model automobile still in current production (an early 1950s Morris), were garlanded with marigolds and sported flaming oil lamps on their hoods. They looked like fat, well-satisfied beasts. We joined the other guests and the royal family on the roof of the palace from where we watched impressive fireworks and rockets illuminating the night sky.\nThe following day we reached Kumbhalgarh Fort. Originally built in the 15th century, Kumbhalgarh is the second largest fort in Rajasthan. Its walls, more than twenty-five miles in circumference and broad enough for eight horsemen to ride abreast on, follow the contours of the rugged hilly landscape, an impressive feat of building. The palace complex is concentrated on the highest point of land within the walls and is topped by a vast and incongruous 19th-century palace, as much art nouveau as Rajasthani in style. Called the Cloud Palace, for at certain times of the year it is shrouded in mist and clouds, it is visible for miles around and has become the distinctive feature of the place. The fort was originally built by Rana Kumbha (the rulers in this part of Rajasthan having the title \"rana\" instead of \"raja\") as an impregnable retreat in the face of the onslaught by various Muslim dynasties, particularly the Khiljis, who were overrunning virtually all of North India in that period. The fort was captured only once, and that because of an act of treachery from within its walls.\nThe views from the ramparts, irregularly punctuated by large circular bastions, and from the roof of the Cloud Palace, are sweeping and majestic. The jungle canopy of a wildlife sanctuary spreads out to the west. Equally impressive are the views of the fort's walls, rising, falling and zigzagging to accommodate the uneven landscape. The fort is so large that there were at one time at least 360 temples, countless palaces and many villages as well as extensive lands under cultivation within its walls.\nWe walked over the Aravali Range on a track through a wildlife sanctuary. Our hotel, in a town near the fort, engaged a guide for us. There aren't many forests in India you can actually walk through. It's simply too dangerous, for there are large populations of wild animals in them: elephants, tigers, bears, wild boars. Unlike most countries in Asia, not to mention Europe and America, India has not entirely decimated its wildlife. This is in part a result of legislation and management but due more to the widespread Indian belief in the sacredness of life, which has led to a disinclination to harm living things. So amazingly enough, this country, a third the size of the continental United States with a population of more than a billion people, is teeming (relatively speaking) with wildlife.\nBut the forest around Kumbhalgarh is an exception. For one thing, there are no wild elephants here, and few if any tigers. There are boars and bears but somehow they keep their distance and are shy of humans, perhaps because in the not too distant past this forest was a hunting preserve for the Rajputs of the area. It is a real treat to walk through virgin forest. The alien environment is completely captivating and full of wonder, sort of like being in another reality or on another planet. We saw virtually no wildlife except for some troops of monkeys and a crested serpent eagle. We disturbed the bird, probably as it was feeding on a kill in some low shrubbery. It took off quite close to us, probably reluctant to interrupt its meal until the last possible moment, and landed not far away on the limb of a dead tree, so it was in plain view. We studied it through our binoculars, getting an eyeball-to-eyeball view. We could see the beautiful patterning of its feathers, its erect crest and what seemed to us to be a very angry expression on its face. We soon left so it could resume its meal in peace.\nThe trail ended at a road and a Jain temple on the edge of the forest. We had a look. At the entrance to the temple was a pair of large cement elephants of the kind the Rajmata found to be in such bad taste. Next to one of them a throng of people was gathered around a large open steel chest, worshipping. I walked up behind them and peered over their shoulders, curious to see the object of their devotion. It was money. The box was full to the brim with it. A wealthy community of bankers, businessmen and financiers, Jains are renowned for loving money. And they were certainly living up to their reputation here.\nWe shared what was left of the lunch we had carried on our walk through the jungle with several of the sorry looking dogs who hung around the temple, hoping no doubt to garner some nourishment from all that wealth. We managed to get a motor rickshaw to take us the few miles down the road to yet another small town with a palace hotel.\nIf the palace hotel in the previous village was grandeur preserved and restored, this one was grandeur decayed. The building was equally magnificent, parts of it even older and more impressive. This had been a garrison town, the local chief providing troops for the defense of Kumbhalgarh Fort, guarding its main supply route. Parts of the palace had been restored though, and modern fittings installed. Like all Rajput palaces, and most palaces in India, there were separate men's and women's sections, the women's generally being more fortified and larger in order to protect and accommodate the rulers' wives, concubines and their numerous female attendants. Some of the suites in the women's palace had been lavishly restored and furnished. We stayed in a simpler but sprawling suite in the former men's section. There was a courtyard in front of the main salon with a little pavilion in its center. With several rows of delicate slender columns and scalloped arches, it was a wonderful place to sit and watch the sunset.\nWe toured the village with one of the boys who worked in the hotel. The village was in about the same condition as the palace. There were beautiful and capacious step-wells with lovely decorative stone facing on the staircases leading down into the earth to water level, which, depending on the season and the amount of rainfall, could be many stories down. But with the recent drilling of deep bore wells and the installation of hand pumps by the government, all these old wells are disused and derelict. It's a lot easier to use a hand pump to get water than it is to walk down four, five or even seven stories and carry pots of water back up to ground level. But we could admire the artistry of these old wells and understand the significance and preciousness of water in this desert land, which provided the impetus for the creation of such large and beautiful structures to contain it. The women however still collect and carry the water in age-old, shiny hand-beaten brass and copper water pots, which they balance gracefully on their heads.\nWe visited the home of a shoemaker. Working only on order, he creates works of art for the feet from the leather of cows, buffaloes and even camels. The large, pointed Rajasthani loafers he crafts are the height of elegance.\nOne night sometime in the 15th century a wealthy Jain merchant dreamed of a celestial vehicle. So moved was he by this vision that he vowed to realize it in stone. He held a contest among architects from all over India and finally found one whose design perfectly matched the vision in his dream. The temple took fifty years to complete. Built entirely of marble, it covers almost 4500 square yards. It is a forest of domes and spires supported by 420 ornately carved pillars, the design of each different from any of the others. Every surface is profusely carved. The whole structure is stone desolidified, turned into lace or into the filigree of snowflakes. And the spatial complexity of the temple is staggering. This is Ranakpur.\nWe met the head priest, who gave us a tour. He was fluent to the point of glibness, his lines rehearsed to perfection, especially his request for a donation at the end of his spiel. He was the P. T. Barnum of temple priests. He explained that he and the other priests devoted their lives to the temple and worked for no salary, being completely dependent on the generosity of pilgrims and visitors. In fact, this is the case with all temple priests in India. Anyway, from the looks of things they were doing quite all right. We gave our donation and he blessed us, foretelling great success and happiness in our future.\nWe returned in the evening for aarti, the fire ceremony held at dusk in most Indian temples. In front of the main shrine room, hanging from the center of a high dome, the inside of which is sculpted into a lotus blossom, is a gigantic crystal chandelier lit by hundreds of candles. It's not often you get to see such a multitude of flaming, flickering prisms. And you can imagine the effect of those innumerable flames lighting up all that sculpted marble. The main image in the central shrine room is of Adinath, the first of the twenty-four Jain gurus. A larger than life-size seated marble statue with sparkling silver and glass eyes, he wears a gold crown and is draped in golden raiment. Drums and bells sound so loudly you cannot hear yourself think or even be aware of your own being. The head priest wielded a massive candelabra of flaming oil cups and drew circles of fire \u2013 flaming mandalas \u2013 around the image.\nWe walked back over the Aravali Range on a different route, again through the jungle, this route slightly longer than the way we had come; and the track was much rougher, but still it was another opportunity to be in the jungle. So with the help of a friendly hotelkeeper we engaged another guide and left shortly after sunrise the next morning.\nIn India, the word jungle (and it is originally a Hindi word) refers to any wild land; it may even be a place without any trees at all. It certainly doesn't have to be the steamy tropical \"jungle\" of Tarzan movies. This was deciduous forest of delicate beauty.\nBhimji, our guide, belongs to the Garasia tribe, one of the two tribes that comprise a large part of the population of this region, the other being the Bhils. People find it surprising to learn that India has the world's largest population of tribal people, many of them still living in jungles as hunter-gatherers in pre-agricultural societies. However, the Garasias do practice agriculture, although unlike most Indian farmers, they do not live in villages with the houses bunched close together, but in isolated dwellings widely spaced out on their tribal lands.\nRight away we could see that Bhimji was another kind of man. As soon as we entered the jungle he became part of it, the jungle being as much in him as he was in it. His posture was transformed and he moved in a different way than when he walked on the road. All his movements were slow, leisurely, almost lazy but he covered a lot of ground effortlessly and very fast.\nIt was in fact a much longer and steeper walk than the first one, but finally we reached a dirt track that could accommodate four-wheel-drive vehicles. We hadn't seen any animals but we enjoyed the walk thoroughly, especially the views of the mountains and plains and of the Cloud Palace of Kumbhalgarh Fort perched atop the highest peak. And the company of Bhimji. He spoke Hindi so we carried on a lively conversation with him as we walked, and he seemed to find us as interesting as we found him.\nThe track led to the base of a sheer cliff. Long flights of cement stairs ascended the cliff face. Troops of gray langur monkeys abounded, running and leaping everywhere, completely unafraid of humans. We reached a teashop built under a rock overhang. The steps continued beyond it, disappearing into a narrow cleft in the mountain. We climbed them and eventually entered the cleft. Monkeys scampered by us along the steel-pipe railings, brushing our legs and shoulders as they went. These are large monkeys, reaching to our shoulders when they stood erect so it was somewhat daunting to have so many running wild all around us, but they were very considerate, never doing more than barely making contact with us.\nThe cleft is actually the entrance to a cave so narrow that two people can barely stand abreast in it, but so high that in the dim light you cannot see the top. Stalactites of enormous length hang from the invisible heights above and from the walls, giving the place a primeval feel, and it seemed as if we had entered a space and time before creation. The cave didn't go very far into the mountain. At its end stood an orange-robed holy man. The floor was paved with marble. Near the very back of the cave, a rough stone decorated with flowers, jutted out of the earth. It was another self-manifested Shiva lingam, this one called Parshuram Mahadev. The god Parshuram once stood here gazing over what was then a vast sea. He let fly an arrow into the waters, causing them to recede and creating in their wake the fertile plain far below us; its inhabitants worship him to this day.\nOccasionally a bold monkey squeezed past us and stole one of the marigold garlands that bedecked the lingam. It would sit on the railing not far away munching on the blessed blossoms.\nAfter stopping for a cup of tea at the chai shop below the cave, we continued our hike; and it wasn't long before we reached a paved road. There were a few autorickshaws and taxis hanging about in a parking area under a tree but they quoted exorbitant prices. That gave us an excuse to walk another couple of miles with Bhimji until we reached a more major road where some locals were gathered. After a few minutes a bus came along. There we said goodbye to Bhimji, who would wait for a bus going the other way back over the range. For us it was only a short ride to the town where we spent the night.\nThe owner and the manager of the small hotel we stayed in were two friendly guys. When we mentioned that we hadn't seen any wildlife on our two walks through the jungle they proposed that we all drive into the sanctuary that very evening. They rented an open-top jeep, which we and they along with their wives and children all piled into.\nThe driver had two powerful searchlights that he attached with long wires directly to the jeep's battery. The men took turns holding the lights and directing their beams into the foliage along the sides of the road and on to the bare mountainsides farther away. It was eerie to see the contrast between the layers of foliage lit up and those that remained in impenetrable darkness. It wasn't necessary to keep the light directed at any particular spot for more than a moment or so, as I realized when we spotted the first leopard. Its eyes reflected the light so strongly that they were as noticeable as lighthouses from the sea. We saw four cats in all, two of them huddled close together in what appeared to be a small niche in the mountainside. But all we could see of them were their shining eyes; for it was too dark to see anything else. Yet somehow we could visualize their bodies from their eyes. We both saw them and didn't see them, as if they were shades.\nWe reached a lively temple town in the mid-afternoon. Entirely devoted to servicing pilgrims, the town's several narrow streets are lined with hotels, restaurants, snack and tea stalls and a myriad of shops selling religious paraphernalia, mostly pictures of the local deity whose image is contained in the main temple and whose presence here is the only reason for the town's existence.\nAlthough the idol is very old and has been venerated for ages, its location in this town is relatively recent. It was 1691 when devotees shifted the statue from its original home in Mathura, three hundred miles or so to the northeast, fearing its destruction by the fanatical iconoclastic Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb. They had intended to move the idol farther than this, but when they reached this place, one of the wheels of the carriage carrying the idol \"sunk deep into the earth and defied extrication; upon which the augur interpreted the pleasure of the god, that he desired to dwell there.\"\nA form of the god Krishna, the idol is a monolithic stone sculpture made of gleaming black marble. Not at all realistic in style, rather geometric in fact, he is short and heavy-set and has his left arm elevated, its palm facing up, supporting a sacred mountain, which is not depicted. Unlike most other Indian temples, which are open for large parts of the day, this one remains closed and so the statue is out of view most of the time. In fact it is only revealed to devotees six times a day for fifteen minutes or so at a time. On each of these occasions it is attired and adorned for the activity it is performing at that particular time: waking up, having breakfast, taking a morning bath, eating lunch, preparing for an afternoon nap and so on. The pictures in the shops portray the god in these various costumes.\nAs it is one of the most popular temples in India with people coming from all over the country to see the god, huge crowds assemble for every viewing, the Sanskrit word for which is \"darshan.\" Now \"darshan\" can simply mean a seeing, like the English word \"vision.\" But when used in a religious context the word has a great deal more resonance than that: it has the sense of revelation or as one writer put it, \"sacred sight-seeing.\" The idea is to make eye contact with the eyes of the god for this is said to effect a direct experience of the divine. Darshan is a kind of mutual seeing, both seeing and being seen by the deity. So it isn't as if the devotees particularly care to linger in front of the image; they just want to catch a glimpse of the god and for him to catch a glimpse of them.\nThere was nothing remarkable about the temple itself. It is in fact a structure that is solely devoted to crowd control. At the busiest viewing times, men and women are separated, the women waiting in the courtyard while the men are admitted into a vast antechamber. One wall of the chamber contains an ornate pair of silver doors towards which everyone's attention is directed. The first time I went for darshan I had to escape from the anteroom before the doors were opened. The crowd was just too much for me to handle; but it wasn't easy to get out either and I had almost given up the attempt when a passage through the massed bodies fortuitously presented itself and I escaped. There was Carol, standing near another entrance where the women were also squashed against closed doors. She couldn't face entering such a crush of bodies either.\nWhen we returned to the hotel and told the manager that we hadn't been able to see the god I could see disappointment written all over his face. \"Don't worry,\" he said, \"I'll let you know a good time to go, when there won't be such a rush.\" He was as good as his word. At around seven in the evening he phoned us in our room and said with some urgency, \"Now go!\"\nThere were still large crowds in the anteroom but nothing like earlier in the day. We (for this time, men and women were mixed together because the crowds were relatively thin) stood there for only a few minutes when suddenly the doors were thrown open and all thrusted themselves forward, hungry, as if starved in fact, for a look at the god. We were swiftly carried along with the crowd into his presence. The dramatically lit shiny black image was flower-bedecked, garbed in a luxuriant sarong and posed against a light purple curtain. The whole effect was heavily theatrical, but somehow, even for the few moments we were able to look at it, the statue transcended the stagy effects that detracted \u2013 or so it seemed to me \u2013 from its power, and I could sense a numinosity emanating from it, the true source of its long-standing appeal.\nWe arrived in Udaipur in the early afternoon and navigated the narrow, winding streets to the lakeside. There we stayed in small family-run heritage hotel where we had stayed on a previous visit.

        "raw_content": "Due to a great number of Mennonite communities near where I am currently living, I have begun to think about their role in the matters being discussed here. What is your take on the significance of both the pacifism and active \"peace works\" (mcc.org) of the Mennonites in regards to what good religion has or has not had on the world?\nRe: Mennonite Communities\nI'd like to answer this in some detail, but right now I'm having too much fun learning Flash/HaXe. I've already got a screenful of ducks running for food. Tomorrow I hope to teach them how to eat, so I can start starving them. After that, just add sex, and evolution will take off.\nI might be back on this subject - sometime...\nI applaud the Mennonites for their pacifism. Pacifism is not a way to conquer the world, which is a pity, since I would love pacifism to take over.\nI also applaud whatever help the Mennonites supply to the victims of disaster or war. I don't know their methods, but I hope they use their best knowledge and humanistic judgment to help - not all organizations do.\nOn the surface, I'd consider the Mennonites about the nicest communities one could have.\nHowever, all that does not reflect on the role of religion. To make a connection with religion, you'd have to be sure that:\n- A similar group without the same religion couldn't be as peaceful and helpful;\n- A similar group with the same religion but in a different environment would act the same as the Mennonites.\nYou'll find that there's non-mennonite groups that are as peaceful and helpful as the mennonites are; you'll also find groups that share the same holy scripture but go on regular killing sprees.\nPerhaps statistically followers of the Bible are more peaceful and helpful than others - but so far, statistics show the exact opposite.\nI'd personally consider it pretty unlikely that scripture would help in being nice. Only a very small portion of the Bible talks about compassion and altruism; most speaks about hate, discrimination, genocide and torture - all in the name of the Loving Lord. If a group manages to discard all the bad stuff and focus on the good, then that's probably because they were good to begin with.\nMy main problem with the Mennonites would be that they believe in a non-existing sky-daddy. They could possibly do even more good with that delusion out of their way.\nThanks for the thoughtful response! I hope this opens up some good conversation on the matter.\nYou know what is truly incredible about the Mennonites? Beyond their own pacifism (not only non-participation in aggression but also their Christ-like laying down of life) and their aid for those suffering (war, poverty, disease), they do this with the conviction that anything less is a deviation from their divine purpose as followers of Christ.\nThat's incredible to me! Many Christians give money to good causes or even aid those suffering from time to time, but the Mennonites have created a way of life that seeks to not only do no harm but give everything they have including their own lives to do the giving works of Christ. That's humbling to me.\nNiels wrote: However, all that does not reflect on the role of religion. To make a connection with religion, you'd have to be sure that:\nHere you have two principles that in order for their work (and lives) to be a reflection on religion must be met. Thanks for this.\nFirst, Mennonites must only be this way, \"peaceful and helpful\" (I'll add sacrificial) with their religion. The Mennonites were originally a Swiss and German Anabaptist movement but have become a worldwide interracial force for peace. So, they are a religious group alone. If it weren't for their religion, they would cease to be because that's what they are. Furthermore, the basis on which they find motivation, method, and support is not entirely based on \"their best knowledge and humanistic judgment\". They seek to emulate the peaceful example of Christ. So I would say that without religion, this group could not for two reasons be peaceful and helpful (and sacrificial).\nSecond, you bring up the idea that perhaps a group with the same religion but different environment might not act the same. Surely one could point to a number of Christian groups that do not act the same! Their is little doubt there. But we must also remember that Mennonites are like the other modern Anabaptist groups, pacifists. Moreover, the Mennonites have worked all over the world for centuries and have included those from various Christian backgrounds.\nNiels wrote: I'd personally consider it pretty unlikely that scripture would help in being nice.

If a group manages to discard all the bad stuff and focus on the good, then that's probably because they were good to begin with.\nThere is quiet a great deal in the Hebrew Bible that is difficult to deal with. That's a topic that is worth getting into. I think it would be debatable about the portions you bring up and their contents, but the point is taken. It is the Gospel that inspires these acts of love. I don't think that they would claim to discard any of the Bible but rather view the text by means of the Gospel of Christ. The Hebrew Bible is viewed as incomplete without the light of Christ. (That's my Apologetics for the day! Excuse me for that. Haha.)\nNiels wrote: My main problem with the Mennonites would be that they believe in a non-existing sky-daddy. They could possibly do even more good with that delusion out of their way.\nThe Mennonites are a group that does so much good, why couldn't they get rid of the religious bit and do even better? Largely, I understand where you're coming from. But it's important to keep in mind that the religious bit is why and how they do good. Why they do it is for the love (and sacrifice) given to them; and how they do it is by following the example of Christ. I don't think that they or perhaps any Christian can separate Christ from their acts of loving kindness (or sacrifice).\nI'm interested also in hearing what SySy and Clint have to say about this topic.\nThe Mennonites have an interesting history of which I am all too ignorant of. But I do know that for their size they do some of the best pound for pound charity efforts. They're one of those groups within Christianity that really do have an influence beyond their size, and I think we have seen that and will continue to see that in the coming years.\nWhat I'm grateful for is their emphasis on the Sermon on the Mount and throwing that in our face whenever the rest of Christianity steers too far away. They launched an awesome and necessary corrective to Reinhold Niebuhr's Christian Realism, and at the moment I'm not so sure where I set myself.\nSo I think they're a bold and necessary witness.\nA few point:\n- The mennonites are not alone in sacrificing themselves for the good of others. Check out the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders. These organisations are based on humanitarian ethics without a need for either God or the Bible.\n- I accept that the Mennonites are bound together by religion, and that without it, their community would fall apart - but that doesn't say much about religion itself. I could start a \"Redheaded Disaster Aid\", that would fall apart when the members lost their hair. Such a group would not prove that redheads are more altruistic than others. Same with religion among the mennonites: They are religious AND they are good, but a causality needs more proof.\n- I distrust religious aid, because it's not always targeted at bringing relief in the form of medication, food, shelter and safety. For an extreme example, you should read up on the Scientologists in Haiti, who arrived to provide \"aid\" by laying on hands. They didn't bring any food, transportation or medicines; they used the scarce resources meant for the starving population. Christianity has made similar errors in the past. I much prefer relief groups that are clear about their purpose. They should provide real help, not prayer, preaching and salvation.\nI'm not saying the Mennonites don't provide true help. I don't know; I only know that the Bible is easily used as an excuse to provide \"help\" that people could easily do without.\nMetaPenguin on Sat Feb 20, 2010 1:20 pm\nYou are completely right to say that non-Religious groups do a whole lot of good. That should not be forgotten in this topic. But I'm not sure I agree with the \"Redheaded Disaster Aid\" idea. I think I understand what you are going at. But it's not that religion brings them together to do good, it is because of their faith that they do good. Your redhead group finds unity in their hair color but that's not why they do what they do. As you hinted to, if they lost their hair they would keep doing good. Mennonites don't just work together because they are all Mennonites, being Mennonites gives them the why and how to serve. They serve by means of the Gospel because of the Gospel.\nI am going to have to disagree that their good work and their religion needs to be causally proven. They testify that this is the reason they serve. They would have to be misleading the world or completely unaware of their motivations for it to not be true. There isn't any reason for them to be lying (there are plenty of non-Religious aid groups and the Mennonites work with them!) and for a community to sacrifice itself in the way they have, they would have know their motivations! Religious or not, giving up one's life takes a whole lot of will.\nI couldn't agree more with your last point! If one is going to help, then just help! Christians have brought their aid in the past at a great price, conversion! But this has never been the method of the Mennonites. Check out MCC.org. This is the central planning site of the Mennonites of North America. Their work is all about aid and not conversion.\nMetaPenguin wrote: I am going to have to disagree that their good work and their religion needs to be causally proven.

They would have to be misleading the world or completely unaware of their motivations for it to not be true.\nEnter modern psychology...\nThere's evidence that people are hardly, if at all, aware of their own motivations. You'll find, for instance, many people that claim to behave decently \"because God told them to\". Since many animals share our morals, it's hardly likely that those God-believers would behave very differently without their belief. These people are not aware of their true motivation: The mirror-cells that have evolved in our brains.\nThe deeper you go in psychology, the more the notions of \"free will\" or \"rational behavior\" seem to melt away. It appears that most of our actions are much too fast for our conscious to follow, let alone to command. We act; and only after that, when asked, we make up a rationization.\nI remember a recent study into this. People were shown pairs of portraits and asked to chose the most attractive one. Some time later, they were shown those portraits again, and asked for an explanation for their decision. What the test subjects didn't know was that some of their answers were reversed. They made up fabrications for a decision that they never made!\nNow, if the Bible or its religions were in general a motivation for good behavior, then statistics would show so - and only statistics. Alas, statistics show the opposite. Prisons for instance have a higher religion-ratio than the population. Religious western cultures have lower life standard, lower life expectancy, lower education levels and higher birth mortality than secular countries.\nThis is still not proof that religion is for the worse. Religion and misery might have the same cause, with neither of them influencing the other.\nNiels wrote: Enter modern psychology...\nThanks, Niels. I'm not very well informed when it comes to modern psychology. I'm interested in seeing the study you mentioned. Is there a way that can be posted as a new thread on this forum?\nNiels wrote: The deeper you go in psychology, the more the notions of \"free will\" or \"rational behavior\" seem to melt away.\nI've found the same thing with a study of religion as well. I can't say that I believe in a \"free will\" anymore.\nIt appears that most of our actions are much too fast for our conscious to follow, let alone to command. We act; and only after that, when asked, we make up a rationalization.\nI've heard about this, isn't it assumed now that a decision is made in the mind six seconds before it is rationalized or made conscious? I did some reading into this and thought it was fascinating. It definitely will take a long time to get a clearer picture or swallow what we have learned.\nIt reminds me of a case study I had read about where some guy had lost the emotion center of his brain. All that was left was his reason, so he could only rationally determine things, and he could no longer live by himself. He could not do anything, any decision required emotional stimuli. He could rationally determine he needed to eat, but he could not rationally determine what to eat. And so on.\nBut I think to say that all decisions are made in a lower level, and that consciousness has no say in them is far too simplistic. We certainly have consciousness, we certainly interact using this consciousness, and we certainly change given our interactions. I know I have changed many beliefs based on argumentation. And that while inside me lies a beast, I can in many instances tame it.\nSo while we are not as free as we would think ourselves to be, I don't think everything is determined by irrational impulse. An analogy I've heard is that it's like our consciousness is riding an elephant. The elephant makes all the motions, and is doing the work, and it can be scared easily and do crazy things, but it can also be tamed and directed.\nIn this way, I think we can trust the rationalization of others. And I think this view is an accepted one in Modern Psychology.\nAnd concerning the statistics, how do they change when you take into account people claiming no religion, but not necessarily atheism? But regardless of that fact, a small segment of the population is atheist, and mostly well to do and not in other demographics that more accurately determine crime.\nBut I guess what I really want to ask, and what I think is most relevant is this: If you do believe that these Mennonites are only rationalizing their innate altruistic impulses, then does it not follow that Jihadists are only rationalizing their innate barbaric impulses? And if this is the case what function does a specific religious system have, if any?\nMetaPenguin wrote: [I'm not very well informed when it comes to modern psychology. I'm interested in seeing the study you mentioned. Is there a way that can be posted as a new thread on this forum?\nI'll post them here; we can always move them if they invite discussion.\nHere's a nice one on \"free will:\nhttp://www.newscientist.com/article/dn13658-brain-scanner-predicts-your-future-moves.html\nBy scanning the brains of test subjects as they pressed one button or another - though not a computer mouse - researchers pinpointed a signal that divulged the decision about seven seconds before people ever realised their choice. The discovery has implications for mind-reading, and the nature of free will.\n\"Our decisions are predetermined unconsciously a long time before our consciousness kicks in,\" says John-Dylan Haynes, a neuroscientist at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience in Berlin, who led the study. It definitely throws our concept of free will into doubt, he adds.\nAnd here' the one on that specific test:\nhttp://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20227046.400-choice-blindness-you-dont-know-what-you-want.html\nUnknown to them, we sometimes used a double-card magic trick to covertly exchange one face for the other so they ended up with the face they did not choose. Common sense dictates that all of us would notice such a big change in the outcome of a choice. But the result showed that in 75 per cent of the trials our participants were blind to the mismatch, even offering \"reasons\" for their \"choice\".\n(I now see that my description was incorrect: Choices were changed immediately.)",

        "raw_content": "Ethics and malpratice statement\nTaking into account the fact that the topics covered by \u201cUrbanism Architecture Constructions\u201d are part of the planning area, where political options can influence scientific approaches and generate different attitudes, the journal will adopt a neutral position in eventual controversies, without publishing preferentially one of the sides through the publication of articles. A similar position will be adopted in relationship to other issues, such as the environment, gender, ethics, or public policies; in all these cases, the primary focus will be the scientific contribution of an article to its field.\nThe ethical principles of the publication process for the entire journal in general and for scientific articles in special are based on the international norms and guidelines, especially those of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) on the good practices of peer review-based journals.\nGiven the continuous evolution of the fields covered by \u201cUrbanism Architecture Constructions\u201d, the peer review will be carried out with reference to the context specific to the period of evaluation; for this reason, articles will have a documentary value. Furthermore, the journal will publish other materials, which, without claiming to be scientific contributions, are meant to record the progress of the field, including conference reports, or presentations of other scientific events. They will be made available under the \u201carchive of announcements and news\u201d. These materials will not undergo the regular reviewer-based evaluation, but will be assessed by the editors instead. For all other articles, specific responsibilities are split among the authors, chief editor, executive (managing) editor, editors, members of the editorial board, and reviewers. All are committed to adopting and observing the ethical standards throughout the evaluation process, until the publication of articles and after.\nThe peer review process, defined as \u201cobtaining advice on individual manuscripts from reviewers expert in the field of publication\u201d, is double blind until the publication of papers. Submissions will be checked by the Executive/Managing Editor. If the Author Guidelines are not observed or major problems are noticed, the article will be immediately rejected and authors informed on the reasons. Articles that passed successfully this stage are reviewed by two external reviewers from a different institution and, if possible, country than the author, receiving a copy that does not contain the name and affiliation of authors or other identifying information (e.g., name of the funding grant). If reviewers find or suspect the identity of authors, they must act regardless of the ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, citizenship, religious beliefs or political orientation of the authors, or report to the Editor any potential conflict. If there are minor differences, the decision is taken by the Executive Editor based on the importance of the submission, assessed in accordance with the Editorial Policy. If their opinions differ substantially, a third reviewer will be contacted. If the reviewers require revisions, authors must submit, in addition to the revised manuscript, an anonymous letter stating the changes performed or motivating the refusal to address them. In the next round, reviewers will be asked to assess whether their suggestions were properly addressed. Rejected submissions will not be returned to authors, but the authors will be informed on the editorial decision. For accepted papers included in an issue, reviewers are acknowledged collectively using their first initials and last names, except for those specifically stating that their names should not be disclosed.\nThe rejection rate increased with the prestige of the journal. Currently, the standards of the journal correspond to those of an international journal with respect to contents and format.\nThe journal has three levels of decision. The lowest one is represented by the board of external Reviewers, who assess the articles with respect to their scientific soundness and recommend their acceptance or rejection. The intermediate one belongs to the Editorial Board, which can recommend a decision if two reviewers have different opinions in relationship with the same article. In addition, they can recommend editorial policies, and are responsible for promoting the journal in the academic and research environment; in this regard, they can recommend the association of the journal with different conferences or other scientific events. The highest decisional level is represented by the Chief Editor, Editors, and Managing/Executive Editor. Their responsibility ranges, in this order, from decision making to its implementation, in relationship to the editorial policies and content of the journal. They are directly responsible, in the opposite order, for overruling the decisions of the reviewers, if the article is not suitable for the journal, and for mediating potential conflicts between authors and reviewers. The decision of rejecting articles that are not suitable for the journal is taken prior to sending it to the reviewers, but can also be taken after the review in case of major incompliance with the editorial policies and guidelines. All the people from the higher level can perform reviews if there are no external reviewers covering the specific area tackled by the article.\nThe responsibilities of each side are resumed in the following.\nAuthors. The submission of a paper implies that the paper has not been published or submitted and is not considered for publication by any other journal, that the study described by the paper is original, and the presentation of other materials does not violate author\u2019s rights or copyright. In addition, the contents of the paper is known and approved by all authors, who contributed to writing the paper and/or carrying out the research described in the paper. The quality of authoring a paper should be limited to those contributing effectively to writing out the paper or carrying out the research presented in their paper. The authors assume the full responsibility for the contents, correctness and originality of the submissions, as well as the observance of ethical standards by filling in a pledge form required by the journal once the article is accepted. Authors must also provide the data used in the article if requested. If authors detect significant errors in their work after publication, they are required to notify the Managing/Executive Editor and arrange the submission of a corrected version of their work.\nReviewers. Reviewers are required to inform the Executive Editor if they cannot assess an article, if it falls beyond their competence, is similar to an article published elsewhere, or determines a conflict of interests. Otherwise, they should complete the review process in due time by submitting a complete Review Form. No other means of communication can replace the Review Form. In the absence of this document, the submission is reassigned to a different reviewer.\nEditors (members of the Editorial Board, Chief Editor, Editors, and Managing/Executive Editor). Editors must secure a correct and unbiased, but also competent review by making sure of the double blindness of the review process, assigning submission to reviewers based on matching the research areas, and providing solutions to potential conflicts during the reviewers and authors while keeping each other\u2019s identity undisclosed to its counterpart. The main responsibility is to ensure an unbiased evaluation with respect to the ethnic or geographic origin, gender, sexual orientation, and ethical or political beliefs.\nOther ethical issues\nConflicts of interests. Authors and reviewers must mention, whenever applicable, possible conflicts of interests, with potential impact over the review process.

Inquiries can be brought to the attention of the Managing/Executive Editor by anyone and at any time for the articles already published, or can be noticed during the peer review process. In order to be accounted for, inquiries must include sufficient information, arguments and proofs. Regardless of their manner, inquiries will be treated in an unbiased and timely manner, until a satisfactory solution is identified.\nInvestigation. The Managing/Executive Editor will treat each issue with a maximum confidentiality, contacting the competent or responsible people. During the process, other parts can also be contacted (authors, those who sent the inquiry, reviewers etc.) The stage will end with identifying the issue, which can be minor \u2013 in this case, no other parts are contacted, and the authors will be able to respond, or major, involving additional people or institutions, such as the hiring institution of the authors, experts or other people.\nResolution. The final output of this stage can consist of notifying the authors, warning them, publishing a note on behalf of the Chief Editor, retraction of articles (e.g., if the authors refuse to submit the Pledge Form), instituting a period of embargo or a total banning (e.g., for authors who refuse to revise their article or comply with the Author Guidelines), and submission of the case to national or international institutions enabled to act further.",

It is truly astounding how self-absorbed and outlandish music award shows have become, and the VMAs are no exception. The VMAs were initially created to compete with the Grammys but have seen a quick erosion into a teen-pleasing, eye-catching, and controversial few hours of television (much like all of MTV\u2019s programming).\nThe most glaring example of this came when the award for Best Rock Video was won by Lorde for her video and song combination of \u201cRoyals,\u201d beating out the likes of the Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys, Imagine Dragons, and Linkin Park (I\u2019m sure some people would make arguments that the latter two bands aren\u2019t rock, either). I have nothing against Lorde \u2014 in fact I truly enjoyed a large portion of her debut record Pure Heroine \u2014 but how does an artist who personally identifies her music as \u201cart pop,\u201d \u201cdream pop,\u201d and \u201celectronica\u201d take the award in the rock category over legitimate rock acts?\nThe Rock Video of the Year category was created in 1989, when Best Heavy Metal Video was awarded to Guns N\u2019 Roses for Sweet Child o\u2019 Mine. Since that time, the award has seen a steady decline from \u201cBest Heavy Metal Video\u201d to \u201cBest Metal/Hard Rock Video,\u201d to \u201cBest Hard Rock Video,\u201d and finally to \u201cBest Rock Video.\u201d This ever-changing title perhaps shows the biggest reflection in the changing scope of the VMAs and MTV. There is a constant desire by the program and network to appease their viewers and their changing musical palates. I understand this is a good way to operate, but for the sake of the musicians, it is offensive. Artists who pour blood, sweat, and tears into their art are left with no recognition for their achievements and successes. That\u2019s not what awards are supposed to be about! If the Golden Globes operated in such a way, it\u2019s scary to think who may be winner \u2014 Twilight, anyone?\nPerhaps Dewey Finn was ahead of his time in remarking on how musical ability was second to \u201cthe look\u201d in the industry. Certainly trend won out on this day, but I doubt we will look back and say, \u201cDamn, that \u2018Royals\u2019 was a great rock song.\u201d At least I hope not. That would truly show an erosion of the musical landscape.\nRelated Topics:Jeffrey TrainorLorde\nGrammys no longer an awards show but a one night music festival\nEugenia Sojka opens portal into Poland\nSnapshots: Half-time shows, food recommendations, parking, student-led classes",

        "raw_content": "Learning styles : implications for higher education\nTitle: Learning styles : implications for higher education;\nVan Rensburg, Gisela Hildegard\nSignificant changes have taken place in higher education over dte past ten years. Learners are more liberated and want to be acknowledged as individuals with differences, and not expected to adapt their individual characteristics to fit in with the specific environment of the learning situation. A new emphasis is placed upon creating and sustaining learning environments that accommodate Ieamer needs and dte process of effective learning. Learners' individual needs include their need to learn how to learn and an acceptance of their individual differences as expressed in learning styles. Active Ieamer participation in dte learning process is necessary for effective learning to take place. Only dten can the desired outcome be reached. For a Ieamer to actively participate in the learning process, the Ieamer must know how to learn, and how to function as an independent Ieamer. To reach these goals, sound knowledge of individual differences in learning st;ytes is necessary. The impact of individual differences on education and the way they affect educational practice, future learning and academic achievement places the emphasis even more strongly on constant awareness, updatlng or change, improvement and development of the educational environment. The educator, as one of the role players in the educational environment, is the facilitator of learning, and should be empowered with a strong knowledge base regarding individual differences among both learners and educators, thus becoming more innovative and creative. Qualitative non-empirical research was undertaken. The aim of this research was to analyse and explore the concept learning style as well as to promote learning style awareness through assessment of learning st;ytes, and to provide an organised frame of reference to guide the learning process and provide for systematic education. Based on insight and knowledge gained through Inductive and deductive reasoning, The Learning Style Assessment Tool and a model for learning style promotion in higher education were constructed. The instrument enables learners and educators to assess their own learning st;ytes and identify their learning characteristics and preferences. The model can serve as a basis for acknowledging and accommodating learning styles in higher education. The desired outcome of this research is effective learning and quality education.\nCitation: Van Rensburg, Gisela Hildegard (2002) Thesis, University of South Africa, Pretoria, <http://hdl.handle.net/10500/17751>\nName: thesis_vanrensbur ...\nAn evaluation of the influence of e-learning in adult education with special reference to the employees of Parliament RSA \ufeff\nMbuli, Fikile (2013-10)\nThis study was devoted to researching the effectiveness of e-learning, in terms of the reported experiences of the Language Services section employees in Parliament RSA.

        "raw_content": "Bachelor of Arts (Hons.), International Development Studies and Contemporary Studies, 1999\nMatt Sherrard\u2019s career path can be understood as \u201cA Tale of Two Meals\u201d (with apologies to Dickens).\nThe first was a vegan meal of chapati and spicy curry. Not just spicy, \u201cfiery,\u201d Matt says.\nHe was in Western India at that time, working on an internship he had set up himself. That meal was standard fare that he shared with the others on the World Bank project.\n\u201cI was the only non-Indian of eight researchers,\u201d Matt says. \u201cWe were out in the middle of the desert, beyond where the roads disappeared. This project was an analysis of the poverty conditions in part of Rajasthan. I was just a student, but among other things, I offered a novelty attraction. I\u2019m six foot four, so a good foot taller than most people there. People wanted to come and see me. It gave us a chance to talk with many more people than we might have otherwise. It literally opened doors.\u201d\nThe work he did there became the focus of his honours thesis in international development.\nThe second meal couldn\u2019t have been more different. It was in northern Quebec, in the Cree community of Chisasibi. Matt visits the area in his current work as a partner with the law firm Gowling WLG. The James Bay Cree signed the first modern day treaty in Canada in the 1970s, when massive hydro projects were developed on their land. Now, Matt advises his Cree clients on issues of governance, negotiations with federal and provincial governments, and on Nation-to-Nation agreements. The memorable meal he had in Chisasibi was to honour a local Cree woman.\n\u201cWe had a feast of traditional food harvested by local hunters. This feast was really remarkable. I had a huge plate of all these different country foods, including rabbit, goose, caribou, moose and bear.\u201d Matt laughs and then gives the punch line. \u201cThen they came around with the tray of beaver, including a roasted beaver head.\u201d\nMatt cleaned his plate.\nMatt had a few stops on his journey from the deserts of India to the coast of James Bay. He worked on exchange projects in North Africa, the Carribean, Latin America and Russia for Canada World Youth. He also worked in a scuba diving centre on the Red Sea. But he was looking for a different kind of experience in those days. So he went back to school to get his law degree.\n\u201cThis is where it loops back to my King\u2019s experience,\u201d he says. \u201cI was looking for a real intellectual challenge. I wanted a career that pushed me intellectually all the time. With law, I am always thinking and learning new things. My King\u2019s and liberal arts background were a great foundation. The critical thinking and debate that I learned at King\u2019s serve me every day\u201d.\nIt\u2019s also a career that satisfies him in other ways.\n\u201cI get a lot of satisfaction from my practice. On top of that, I feel that I am helping to make a difference,\u201d Matt says. \u201cIt is important work. The whole process of reconciliation is a tremendous challenge. But I feel honoured to assist the Cree Nation to continue to move forward in its nationhood. It\u2019s really exciting times.\u201d\nConnect with Matthew Sherrard",

Aware that it is at its best when set to music, this show launches into song at any given opportunity, whilst it also uses the lyrics to skilfully thread together separate sub-plots, allowing harmonies between different characters to take place. The narrative is consistently quirky and original, with the four-armed pantomime baddie being particularly noteworthy. Although it lurches into an unexpectedly dark moment towards the end that is rather incongruous, this is nevertheless a compelling performance.

        "raw_content": "Today's fabrics are generally warranted for five years. With proper maintenance and care, they should last much longer. The exposure of your awning and care will greatly determine their life. Our aluminum frames are guaranteed for a lifetime.\nToday's fabrics come in more than 500 solid and striped colors! Visit the TECH INFO page of our website for more information.\nRegular maintenance generally means a once-a-year cleaning, with additional care if stains or soilage appears. Also, remember that your awning is an exterior product. In the same way you wouldn't leave your automobile outside without washing it for very long, you'll also need to clean your canvas awning to preserve and extend its good looks and service life. Click here for cleaning instructions.\nGenerally speaking, awning fabrics are water-repellent, not waterproof. There are exceptions, though, which may be practical in certain environments. The fabrics' water-repellent characteristics allow you to fully enjoy the space shaded by the awning during any weather conditions that aren't severe. In other words, if the weather is nice enough for you to be outside, then it is good enough for you to be out underneath your awning\nRetractable awnings primarily are designed to provide protection from the sun's rays and not from rain. However, it can be used in drizzle or misting rains with proper unit pitch. In heavy or driving rains, the unit must be retracted to keep water from \"pooling\" on the fabric and causing damage or irreversible fabric stretching.\nRetractable awnings primarily are for sun protection and should not be left out in windy conditions. However, wind is a very unpredictable force, with a tendency to change direction and speed very quickly. In a wind-tunnel test, which is a very controlled environment, a retractable awning withstood straight-on wind forces at over 35 m.p.h. In \"real-life\" applications, the general rule of thumb is: If you are comfortable sitting outdoors dining or reading the paper, then it is probably safe to operate your awning. The concern with wind is the uplifting effect on the awning rather than the downward force; therefore the greater the pitch, the more wind-resistant the unit is.\nGenerally, however, today's awning fabrics are considered water-repellent, not waterproof. Water-repellent awning and patio canopies will allow you to enjoy your deck or patio during most weather conditions that it is safe to be outside.\nThat's simple: Just fax.e-mail or send a drawing or sketch to us and one of our design coordinators will contact you and help you pull the concept or product together along with costing.\nDoes United States Awning Co. produce products for National Accounts?\nThe answer is YES!

        "raw_content": "How A Massage Chair Can Be Beneficial To Pregnant Women?\nPregnancy causes a lot of changes in the body. It causes not just hormonal change but physical changes too. Your belly and other parts of the body start to grow and as the tummy grows bigger a feeling of pain and discomfort are felt. Women have to embrace the changes that come along for nine months. Good thing there are many things a woman can do to somehow find comfort despite the changes that occur in the body. One of the things that a pregnant woman should have is a massage chair. A massage chair during pregnancy can benefit you in many ways. These include:\nSoothes back pain\nBack pain is one of the common problems faced by pregnant women. The pain causes a lot of discomforts, especially at night time. To sooth the back pain, you should spend a few minutes in the massage chair. The chair comes with vibrators and motors and together they gently soothe muscle tension and relieve muscle strain.\nSome people think that a massage chair is contraindicated in pregnant women because it may jar the baby. A high-quality massage chair will not jar the baby. The vibration of the chair will not cause harm to the mother and to the baby. What the chair does is it massages the body. Its effect to the baby is the same when you are walking.\nIt prevents leg pain\nAside from back pain, pregnant women also suffer from leg pain. A soothing massage from the massage chair promotes blood circulation, especially in the back and the lower extremities.\nIt promotes easy labor\nSome women are fortunate to have a safe and easy labor. For first-timers, labor can be extremely difficult. You can prepare for your labor by having to walk on a daily basis as well as having a very good massage. A massage chair can shorten the labor time. A difficult labor usually leads to postnatal depression. This problem can be prevented if you spend a few minutes on the massage chair. Five to ten minutes of massage can truly make a difference.\nTagsmassage chair during pregnancy",

        "raw_content": "In need of advice (1733 views) Email Anonymously\nI hurt someone who loved me. I lied to him before we ever started dating about my lifestyle background because I was wealthier than him and I knew he'd think we never work if I told him the truth. He fell in love, we talked about marriage, kids, but I found myself constantly haunted by my lie so I told him the truth. He said at the time thane never loved me, he just wanted me for sex. But I feel like he put way too much effort into our relationship if he didn't love me. I gave him his space, about two months worth then texted him and asked to talk. He basically said he had to stand by his decision to not be with me, and somewhat acted like he didn't care. But I don't think he would've ever have texted me back if he didn't. A few days later I texted again and I asked him to just tell me how he feels because we both just need to be on the same page and he at first was willing but when it came down to him saying whether h still loved me or not, he wouldn't say it. So I asked if he hated me, to say it or otherwise I would know he still cares. And he didn't say anything at all. But I'm not sure if that was just him ignoring me, or if he still cares. I really need a outsiders perspective? I know I messed up and I don't blame him for thinking that our whole relationship was based on a lie, but it wasn't. Do you guys think there's any chance of saving our relationship? He truly is my entire world and I haven't went a single day without thinking about him. I want to fight for him but I don't know how to do that if he will barely speak to me. Please, please help.\nIf all you did was lie about your financial status then I don't see why he is still upset. You did it in order to be with him because he would've shunned you otherwise so it wasn't an act of selfishness or anything of the sort. You were desperate to hold on to the person you love. If he truly does love you he'll put that silly fib in the past and be with you. There's no use in making yourself miserable over something so trivial. Try to reach out to him. Tell him that you're going to talk and that if he wishes to say nothing that it's okay, but he needs to hear you out. He should be mature enough to understand your decisions. If he won't meet you call, if he won't answer text. He might not text back, but that doesn't mean he won't read the message. It doesn't matter if it's long, let it all out. I hope this helps. Good luck.\n[by Jaydee\ton Sun July 24, 2016 09:30:47 pm]\n[by Keli\ton Mon July 25, 2016 08:36:29 am]\n[by Mattie\ton Wed July 27, 2016 04:18:50 am]\nThanks for inidoructng a little rationality into this debate.",

        "title": "The brave new world of search engines - Yannick Versley",
        "raw_content": "In an earlier post, I talked about current Google's search results in terms of personalization, and whether to like it or not. This post takes another aspect of 2011 Google search: what they do with complex queries.\n(Executive summary: Since the introduction of Instant Search, Google does weird things with queries longer than two words and I'm among the unhappy few).\nDespite my claims that the information that That Big Search Engine has collected about me actually leads to it giving me better search results, I have now spent a couple weeks with DuckDuckGo as my primary search engine on one computer, and Bing as the primary search engine on the other. One reason for this is that Google, through its user modelling prowess, gets thrown off the track pretty quickly whenever your query contains multiple terms (say, three or more) and you actually mean them.\nAs an example, entering \"correct horse battery staple\" on Google will give you the XKCD comic about password strength. If you give Google the string \"battery staple correct\", it will direct you not to the XKCD comic, and also not to battery-driven stapling machines; instead, you get links to descriptions on how to use your laptop battery (\"correct battery\", without any hint of staples), while Bing gives you a mixture of blog posts on the XKCD comics, battery-driven staplers, and buying batteries at Staples (the office material store). Google effectively ignores any but the first two terms.\nThe chances that you can do realtime search with complex queries is pretty slim, and Google doesn't take that chance - it just gives you some pages that look like they could be good responses to that query but that don't have anything in common with the terms you entered.\nHooray, we've gone full circle from searching our way through categories (Yahoo, circa 1997) to fulltext search (Altavista, circa 1999), to personalized fulltext search (Google, circa 2006) to a more limited model where you enter some terms and get directed to a category. Other search engines are better at answering multiword queries, but sometimes seem to suffer from a smaller index size, or seem to be led astray by assuming the wrong topic.\nWhat can we learn from it? On one hand, Google apparently still has the biggest index, but they are not showing it off as entering weird queries will just give you random results. Instead, they rely on their own secret sauce of personalized search and topic guessing to give the 90% of average Joes and Janes a search experience that will make them happy (and it's indeed the average Joes and Janes, and not the corpus linguists or the SEO people who will click on all those ads).\nThe next thing you notice is that there is a separation between search providers and search engines: As of recently, Yahoo uses Microsoft's search, which means that Yahoo search and Bing actually work from a common index, while the search data from the actual users is not shared between the companies. In a similar fashion, DuckDuckGo only maintains a small index of its own, but supplements it with data from Yahoo's BOSS search service, from Bing and from a company called entireweb which also powers the searches of ixquick and a handful of other search engines.\nIn the late nineties, a related architecture -- one search engine using other companies' search, was realized by so-called meta-search engines which took the results from other engines and aggregated or re-ranked them. With the difference being that now, in 2011, (meta)search engines pay the search providers a considerable amount of money; And, besides search quality, they usually offer additional goodies -- results in manually curated resource (Wikipedia or the Python Package index) that are displayed specially, or (in the case of both DuckDuckGo and IxQuick) a promise of increased privacy.\nThe Information Retrieval view\nWhy do we (or at least I do) expect that, if we put in a search query with terms X, Y, and Z, we get a page containing the terms (namely, X, Y, and Z)? It has to with the standard paradigm of fulltext search: You take all pages that have the query terms in them (basically retrieving from the index the document sets that correspond to each search term and intersect them), and then do a ranking of the pages in the intersection, using a variety of methods (with the most basic one, tfidf, ranking pages by the number of occurrences of informative terms from the query).\nThe usefulness of fulltext search was recognized in the 1960s, in the Cranfield Experiments where different ways of retrieving texts were compared empirically - and it turned out that no scheme for putting documents into categories was better than just comparing the words in the text to those of the query. Most of today's search engines, as well as all desktop search engines such as Lucene, Xapian, or htDig, therefore use indexes containing document sets (called an inverted index) and use these to produce a ranked list of documents containing all query terms.\nBesides fancier ways of ranking documents, you can try to normalize terms in a query - by stemming, which tries to normalize morphological variants by stripping off the endings of terms - yielding the same result for both \"fly\" and \"flies\"; semantic query expansion adds synonyms, which are however context-dependent and may result in noise, which is why the addition of terms is usually done to influence the ranking but not the basic set of documents.\nGoogle's instant search only seems to be using the first two terms of the query for general searches. Besides being the horror dream of corpus linguists looking for a specific construction, this presumably allows a more efficient processing of queries because you can just cache the result set for any two-term query. Already in this SIGIR 1999 paper [1], the average query length is 2.35, with about two thirds of the non-empty queries having up to two terms.\nOnly looking at the first two words already works quite well when queries are short enough, but it's worth considering what happens to the additional terms. In some cases, the words simply serve to disambiguate the topic (for example \"latex jpeg\" may be disambiguated with terms such as \"includegraphics\" or \"pdflatex\"); in this case, a soft clustering algorithm like LDA (which is rumored to be part of Google's secret sauce) could use the additional terms to determine suitable topics without having to cache more than the highest-ranked documents for each word1-word2-topic combination. Another important case that can be special-cased consists in \"local searches\" which include place names: Googling for \"jazz disco basingstoke\" or \"jazz disco oschatz\" (i.e., \"jazz disco\" plus some small European city) works well in my local Google edition, whereas in \"jazz disco blumenau\", the third term seems to be ignored unless you use the Brazilian Portuguese edition of Google (despite none of the results really having to do with the city).\n[1] Silverstein, Henzinger, Marais, Moricz (1999): Analysis of a Very Large Web Search Engine Query Log.

After it was born, the lamb made a number of strange grunting noises as it was nuzzled by its more normal looking mother.\nAccording to the DailyMail, the farming family were subjected to abuse and horrifying accusations by superstitious locals when the images went viral.

Field Day is a time to learn how to set up and operate communications equipment in an emergency. It's also a time to learn about different modes of communications. Field Day isn't just for making contacts with as many other stations as possible. It's a time to see what you may have to do in a real emergency, and you may be the only communications available.\nThere may be modes of communications that you don't know about, and may want to learn more. Talking by voice on a radio isn't the only way to communicate. There are several digital modes that can be used. It seems like a new digital mode is invented every year. Some of the digital modes you can't even hear with your ears, but the computer picks them up and prints them out.\nDon't forget the original form of communications, and that's Morse Code, or better known as CW. CW isn't a dying art, it's just not used as often. Learning to receive and sent CW is like learning a new language. It takes practice, but it will get the messages through when most other forms of communications are not available.\nHave a good time at Field Day and try to learn something that may be used when all other forms of communications fail.",

        "raw_content": "== Roadmap for webwork development == ====Webservices API==== At the Raleigh code camp a number of us discussed putting together a solid API for the webservices and currently have a [https://github.com/whytheplatypus/WeBWorK-API working draft]. The API is a listing of all the interactions that we want to have with the webwork server (or actually the database). ====Current Webservice==== Separate from the current webwork pages, there is a webservice to serve information from the database in lib/WebworkWebservice.pm and lib/ContentGenerator/instructorXMLHandle.pm and a handful of additional files in /lib/WebworkWebservice. This webservice mainly serves some of the new tools (Homework Manager, Classlist Manager and with a new version of the LibBrowser). The idea would be to deprecate this webservice (see RESTful webservice below). ====RESTful Webservice==== Most current webservices run what is called a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer RESTful service]. In short, it's a common way to send and request information from a webserver. There are many reasons for using RESTful webservice, but the best is that this will be based on the API listed above. Once we have a solid API, we can go about designing the backend. The current webservice is not RESTful. A near-term goal will be to create such a webservice in perl, possibly using [http://www.perldancer.org/ Perl Dancer], [http://www.catalystframework.org/ Catalyst] or [http://search.cpan.org/~jeteve/Apache2-REST-0.07/lib/Apache2/REST.pm Apache2::REST]. Some quick research shows Perl Dancer may be the way to go for this. The reason for using a perl webservice is that it will be the quickest way to develop such a webservice since the rest of the codebase is in perl. A longer term goal will be to write non-perl RESTful webservices. These may include a [node.js node.js] service or any other type of back end. More of this to follow. ====Switching the core database==== Another current trend in webservices is that of a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NoSQL NoSQL] database, which store flexible documents. This is in contrast to a SQL (or relational) database in which everything needs to be stored as a table. The flexibility of a NoSQL database will be that data structures can be nested. For example, A ProblemSet can store information about the problem as well as an array of users that set is assigned for. The users can also be nested if need be. Another advantage to a NoSQL database is that the documents are injected and retrieved via JSON (which is the standard interchange format for objects on the web) and no conversion is necessary. This leads to clearer code on the server side. Some common NoSQL databases that are being used are [http://www.mongodb.org/ MongoDB] and [http://couchdb.apache.org/ CouchDB]. ====Changing the Webwork UI==== In addition to the backend, there has been progress on the Webwork UI. The goal of the new Webwork tools are to modernize and simplify the interface. These tools use [backbonejs.com Backbone] to help with 1) separating the data from the view (in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model%E2%80%93view%E2%80%93controller MVC] style) and 2) synching the data on the client with that on the server. Backbone was designed to interact with a server in a RESTful manner, and although we currently don't have such a webservice, there are ways to manage. Unfortunately, this means writing a lot of additional code to deal with our current API (or lack thereof). ===Tasks=== The following is the order of some of the backend tasks listed above. # Finish the API. # Develop a perl RESTful webservice # Convert the new WW pages to use the new webservice (Note: this can be done in stages as the old webservice will still work.) # Develop a non-perl RESTful webservice and new database. The new WW pages SHOULD work exactly the same using either RESTful webservice. # Develop tools to convert the mySQL database to the new database.",

        "raw_content": "Wells Tile & Antiques\nThe History of Wells Tile & Antiques.\nWells Antiques was established in 1992. From the beginning, the intent was to join the community of antique dealers that populated Echo Park for over a quarter century. Over time the business evolved into a virtual museum of art pottery & tiles, garden ware and furniture, displaying the largest collection of antique tiles in the country.\nScott Wells, the owner of Wells Antiques began taking a specific interest in art pottery when he came across his first California tile table. His interest increased when he stumbled on a large collection of antique tiles. At that time there was little information available so Wells sought out the few tile experts around and began what would become an endless quest for knowledge. In doing so Wells became aware of how few dealers there were in the country that specialized in this area of the antique business. Without a doubt there was a niche just waiting to be filled. The public awareness and appreciation of these treasures has not only blossomed but has exploded over the past 10 years. In turn Wells has developed a personal love and appreciation for the aesthetic beauty and worth of the tiles themselves. With knowledge came success and the business, as well as Wells\u2019 personal reputation as an expert in the field, has grown tremendously. He is a dedicated conservationist and stays busy educating the public about the worth, beauty, and historical value of antique tiles. Throughout the years he has been an advisor and contributor to many national and local institutions, including California Heritage Museum and The Tile Heritage Foundation. Wells has worked with authors, such as Norman Karlson, sharing his knowledge and general expertise on his favorite subject.\nWells Antiques is unique due to the degree of specialization that is represented in the retail establishment. The general feel is a dusty antique store but as you wander a little further, that first impression fades and suddenly you feel as though you\u2019ve stumbled onto a den of antiquities. Early California tiles are largely represented due to the tile renaissance that occurred in the 1920\u2019s in Southern California. The architecture and the climate of the area were responsible for the beautiful tile colors and glazes that were developed during that time. Most of the tile motifs and designs from that period were derived from Mediterranean and Middle Eastern origins.\nOne of the goals of Wells Antiques is to preserve vintage tiles from destruction due to the lack of understanding of the historical worth and beauty of these tiles. Through trial and error he has developed the best techniques for removal and salvage of these community treasures and has been commissioned to remove tiles from numerous historical sites. Wells is the leading expert of this service, which is now available to the public. Wells also provides installation design services, tile restoration, appraisals, tile and pottery identification and referrals for tile reproduction. Wells is the only place to go where you can design your own antique fireplace, fountain, back-splash or scenic installation. \u201cWe value our customers and strive to provide the best possible service to ensure a pleasurable shopping experience.\u201d The store has a museum-like quality with a constant influx of new merchandise that brings customers back time and time again.\nToday, Wells Antiques has the largest stock of antique tiles in the country. Our clients include many famous names in the Los Angeles area and we attract people from all over the world.",

You can find some exceptional deals on the best vehicles out there, even the one that you have had your eye on for quite some right time. Whether you like trucks, a concise vehicle, or whatever else, you can find what you are searching for through these types of dealerships. There is a lot of trust here and you may even find scrap my car for cash that they are a lot better than the newer options.\nThe biggest advantage to purchasing used cars is the savings. For the most part, people buy these as a result of how much cheaper they have been. If they are still relatively new Even, you will still be paying less than you would if an option was bought by you that was brand new. With how much you can save yourself by doing this, you shall be able to afford more. You will be paying less over time through payments also, allowing you to easily budget more. Any person hoping to spend as little as possible should consider the outstanding benefits that this offers in terms of your financial life.\nOne of the most common fears associated with used cars would be their condition. Since they are owned pre, a complete lot of people assume that this means that they are in a poor condition. They think that it will break up quickly or that it will not work as well as it should generally speaking. This is often just people\u2019s fears and is far from the actual truth about most vehicles. You can find lots of exceptional options that not only work, but also offer a list of useful and appealing features that will help you while driving.\nUsed cars offer a lot more than you might think actually. Something that many people seem to forget is that they have already been through quite a bit. They have been tested by time, weather, and everything that the trail can throw at it, and they are ready to drive still. With newer vehicles, you do not have this simply. You are not going to know if it shall last until it is too late. By then, you have spent a lot of money in purchasing it already.\nTrusting in what\u2019s possible with used cars is not difficult at all. If the quality is wanted by you with the savings, go to a local dealership and see what\u2019s available. You can find lots of incredible vehicles that provide what you want. With so many of them being sold, you may find the one that you really like even.\nHaving a motor car is a privilege and a responsibility. It helps to ensure that one will have reliable transportation to work and virtually wherever else they would like to go. New vehicles are desirable for obvious reasons. The shiny appeal of something never played with by someone else, the fresh paint, the newest technology, and the impressive modern accessories all add to the allure of an untouched automobile.\nWhat might be less appealing is the price these full days. The rising price does not make having this mode of transit any less necessary in most pockets of our society. A remarkable 85% of the workforce in this country uses personal transportation as the primary way of getting to their place of occupation. Used cars are more than a previously worn vessel just. They are an opportunity for someone who cannot pay the most recent addition to the lot to have freedom and mobility.\nIt is no secret that vehicles depreciate rapidly. The first owners get to experience this first hand as they watch the appraised value of their cherished purchase diminish quickly. Purchasing an used car eliminates this component of the ownership process. If it is relatively recent still, the devaluation will not be detectable in the physical features probably. Registration fees are usually lower also, saving more money even.\nDepending on history and age, insurance can be one of the more high priced responsibilities associated with driving. Deciding to go with a loved set of wheels can relieve this burden previously. The comprehensive, theft, and collision coverage rates shall be lower for used cars. Obviously, it is important to take into account how weathered it is just. Older models may have higher insurance costs due to lack of certain safety features. Then there is the exception of what one may possibly call an \u201cultran used\u201d automobile, meaning those that qualify as antiques, which are eligible for a different type of coverage completely.\nWhile is it nearly essential to normal professional and social life to have a means of transportation, it is not necessary to purchase the latest product of the auto industry. Weigh your options to truly save your wallet along with your peace of mind.\nWhen it is time to purchase an automobile, you may want to consider getting an owned vehicle rather than a brand new one previously. Used cars offer a true number of benefits to consumers. Whether you wish to purchase a sedan, truck, van, or hatchback, there are a variety of options out there. Used cars are available from dealerships and private sellers, and you can find listings on the net, local newspapers, and automotive magazines. It doesn\u2019t matter what kind of vehicle by which you want to invest, there was an option out there for you. There are lots of good reasons to go with an owned vehicle previously.\nThe key reason many consumers choose used cars over new ones is obvious: price. Why shell out thousands of dollars more for a brand new automobile when you can get a fully working one in similar condition at a fraction of the cost. For loans, most banks require hefty down payments, if you are paying less on your monthly payment especially. With so many avenues to decide on when purchasing your car or truck, you are bound to find a fantastic deal on the automobile of your dreams somewhere.\nAutomobiles, much like electronics, depreciate the full minute you purchase it. Once you drive it off of the complete lot, it has lost a significant amount of its value immediately. Because this really is true of new vehicles, you can find used cars for a fraction of the buying price of a new one. There are a true number of guides you can consult to find out the value of any particular make, model, and year of a vehicle. This will help you to get a good clear idea of what exactly you\u2019ll be able to afford and what constitutes a good deal before going to the dealership or browse through listings.\nWhen purchasing used cars, you can find deals on a variety of different models always. Brand new vehicles have a set price typically, which leaves almost no room for negotiating. When you find the owned automobile that you want previously, you might be able to talk down the price a bit. Whether you are working with a private seller or through a dealership, you may even be able to get the vehicle for a little significantly less than it\u2019s worth. No real matter what kind of vehicle you are searching for purchasing, take the time to check out weigh your options to locate good deal on the car you want.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Is a Residential Windmill a Smart Money Saving Strategy?\nThe Number 1 Killer of Wind Power (and how to defeat it) \u00bb\nThe 1-2-3-Renewable energy wind power plan\nSo you\u2019d like to install renewable energy wind power at home. There are three simple things you must know:\nStep One: Get obsessed with wind\nYou need to know where on your lot you get the highest wind speeds, where you won\u2019t need to go up quite so high to get the best wind power generation, and where you can count on the wind to be blowing most of the year.\nBecause lot elevations, tree lines, and other buildings all play a big role in wind speeds, take your time exploring what you have. You might want to call out a renewable energy wind power consultant to help you take measurements and locate the very best location for your residential wind power generator.\nStep Two: Keep your needs in the picture\nDon\u2019t forget what you need to get out of this! Do you need the residential wind power generator to not be visible from the street due to HOA restrictions? Do you need to generate a certain amount of electricity to make the whole process worthwhile? Do you want to be able to use a certain style of wind power generator? You\u2019re setting up a renewable energy wind power system and it needs to work *for* you, not against you, so don\u2019t forget your needs when you\u2019re concocting your plan.\nStep Three: Keep your eyes open and be ready to change course\nThe world of renewable energy wind power is changing very fast right now and while it\u2019s well worth diving in with both feet, make sure that you stay alert to updates and changes. Current generators are really reliable, long-lasting, and efficient, and there\u2019s no need to wait for new bells and whistles. Right now the big things that are coming out on the market are embellishments, not actual substantial improvements. So the latest models are paintable, unless you intend to be out there with a spray can once a year, you probably don\u2019t want to paint your renewable energy wind power generator anyway!\nIn other words, don\u2019t let the fear of how the technology might change in the future keep you from taking action now. As renewable energy wind power becomes more popular, and as electricity bills rise, prices for generators will go up and by waiting you\u2019ll definitely pay more. So, it\u2019s better to get started now and start to see cost savings, just stay alert to any improvements in the future that would mean it\u2019s time to add a second renewable energy wind power generator to your house.\nWhat\u2019s the basic plan you\u2019re following to install renewable energy wind power to your house?",

Astronomy & Astrophysics, Vol.455 (No.2). pp. 659-672. doi:10.1051/0004-6361:20065049\nWRAP_Aungwerjwit_70_Dwarf_novae.pdf - Requires a PDF viewer.\nOfficial URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361:20065049\nAims. We report the discovery of five new dwarf novae that were spectroscopically identified in the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS),and discuss the properties of the sample of new dwarf novae from the HQS.\nMethods. Follow-up time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry have been obtained to characterise the new systems.\nResults. The orbital periods determined from analyses of the radial velocity variations and/or orbital photometric variability are Porb 105.1min or Porb 109.9min for HS 0417+7445, Porb = 114.3 \u00b1 2.7min for HS 1016+3412, Porb = 92.66 \u00b1 0.17 min for HS 1340+1524, Porb = 272.317 \u00b1 0.001 min for HS 1857+7127, and Porb = 258.02 \u00b1 0.56 min for HS 2214+2845. HS 1857+7127 is found to be partially eclipsing. In HS 2214+2845 the secondary star of spectral type M3 \u00b1 1 is clearly detected, and we estimate the distance to the system to be d = 390 \u00b1 40 pc. We recorded one superoutburst of HS 0417+7445, identifying the system as a SUUMatype\ndwarf nova. HS 1016+3412 and HS 1340+1524 have rare outbursts, and their subtype is yet undetermined. HS 1857+7127 frequently varies in brightness and may be a ZCam-type dwarf nova. HS 2214+2845 is a UGem-type dwarf nova with a most likely cycle length of 71 d.\nConclusions. To date, 14 new dwarf novae have been identified in the HQS. The ratio of short-period (<3 h) to long-period (>3 h)systems of this sample is 1.3, much smaller compared to the ratio of 2.7 found for all known dwarf novae. The HQS dwarf novae display typically infrequent or low-amplitude outburst activity, underlining the strength of spectroscopic selection in identifying new\nCVs independently of their variability. The spectroscopic properties of short-period CVs in the HQS, newly identified and previously known, suggest that most, or possibly all of them are still evolving towards the minimum period. Their total number agrees with the predictions of population models within an order of magnitude. However, the bulk of all CVs is predicted to have evolved past the minimum period, and those systems remain unidentified. This suggests that those post-bounce systems have markedly weaker H\u03b2 emission lines compared to the average known short-period CVs, and undergo no or extremely rare outbursts.\nThailand, Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (Great Britain) (PPARC), University of Warwick, United States.

        "raw_content": "ADP and Logan Construction have completed a major remodelling of one of London\u2019s busiest hospitals to create a new emergency care pathway in a dedicated emergency floor. This will ensure that patients are cared for safely and efficiently, in a brighter, more comfortable environment.\nA new clinical decisions unit is the last phase to be finished in a programme that brings together a new majors area, 62 acute assessment ward beds, emergency paediatric services, a children\u2019s short stay unit and a centralised urgent care centre. The new resuscitation area, with larger treatment cubicles and dedicated trauma and isolation rooms now sits in the heart of the department.\nThe emergency department at St Thomas\u2019 sees more than 140,000 patients coming through its doors each year, including 27,000 children. By co-locating all emergency services in one zone, patients can be directed to the relevant area depending on the severity of their needs. Patients with less serious conditions will be treated by GPs and emergency nurse practitioners.\nArtwork funded by Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 charity and developed with Art in Site, arts consultants, was implemented to create a welcoming environment and help patients navigate their way to the right area.\n(Image credit to Art In Site)\nDepartments are divided by colour and well known London landmarks, helping people identify with their surroundings. This was important in humanising clinical environments, which combined with integrated patient information, makes them more legible to reduce stress and anxiety. The integration of information into the care pathway is inspired by the Design Council publication - \u2018Reducing Violence and Aggression in A&E \u2013 through a better experience\u2019. A bespoke solution was developed to work through the entire pathway.\nIn the paediatric emergency care department, ADP worked with Art in Site and the user team to integrate cartoon characters and local landmarks created by Japanese artist Kiriko, \u2018Taking the ouch out of A&E\u2019, is designed to communicate to children that they are safe and being cared for, and to distract them during difficult or painful procedures. The graphics also enable children to learn about their body and their illness, and how to stay healthy and safe.\nConsultations were held with staff and patients on every aspect of the design. The use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) enabled the team to coordinate and speed up the design process, and allow eight separate user groups to understand and approve the design as it developed. ADP designed a number of standard components withthe Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 team to allow shared use and flexibility and ensure future proofing.\nADP worked with Logan Construction to keep the department in live operational use throughout each phase of development.\nClinical lead Dr Katherine Henderson said: \u201cOur new department will improve the quality of care as well as the overall experience of patients requiring emergency treatment.\n\u201cI am incredibly proud of the fact that such a huge redevelopment has been carried out while existing emergency services have remained open 24-hours-a-day and can\u2019t thank our staff enough for their patience and dedication.\u201d\nDr Simon Eccles, consultant in emergency medicine who led work to transform the emergency care at St Thomas\u2019, said: \u201cWe now have state-of-the-art facilities to help us treat increasing numbers of patients but this project wasn\u2019t just about increasing capacity.\n\u201cBy creating a new Emergency Floor we have been able to improve the patient journey for all our patients by ensuring we have the right facilities to treat them all in one place.",

Before becoming an official, Chris was a player for Cheltenham, playing games against the likes of Northampton, Bristol, Gloucester and Bath, until a shoulder injury slowed his playing career down.\nWhen rugby referees started to become professional, White gave up his job as a teacher at Prestbury primary school, as the demands of refereeing got tougher.\nChris refereed the big World Cup semi-final game between Australia and New Zealand, and if it had not have been for England reaching the semi-finals, could have had the chance to referee in the final.He was one of three referees short-listed for the final, but due to England\u2019s great success in the competition, he did not get the biggest job any rugby referee could wish for.\nWhite had no regrets about missing the opportunity to referee such a massive game. He said:\n\u201cI wanted England to be World Champions and I thought they would be. I\u2019m delighted to have done the semi-final and the third and fourth place play-off, but if it\u2019s not meant to be, it\u2019s not meant to be\u201d.\nWhite has come along way since his first game as a referee when he was just 17-years old, and the thought of refereeing as an occupation had never entered his mind.\nChris White became the first referee to take charge of three Heineken Cup finals when he took control the match between Biarritz Olympique and Munster at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff, on Saturday, 20 May 2006.\nThe 42-year-old former junior school teacher from Cheltenham has the honour of doing back-to-back Heineken Cup finals \u2013 he was in the middle at Murrayfield last year when Toulouse beat Stade Francais Paris in extra time \u2013 and also refereed the previous all-French final between Toulouse and Perpignan in Dublin in 2003.\nWhite has refereed 36 Heineken Cup games and 35 full internationals \u2013 most recently France\u2019s Grand Slam clinching win over Wales at the Millennium Stadium in March.\nAs a professional referee White has had to travel all around the World to referee a variety of games.\nOne of his many highlights of his career to date include taking charge of Australia versus New Zealand which is one of the greatest fixtures in World Rugby, let alone as a World Cup semi-final.\nChris is available for after dinner speaking and has some humorous stories and anecdotes to share from a very eventful career in the game of rugby.",

(essentially they just get better with time, but you can make them at any point from now until Christmas.) here's the Christmas pudding recipe for you - i'm sure you'll have fun making it!\nthank you for reading - check back soon for more lunchboxes and foodie inspiration...\ncurrently listening to: cool yule by louis armstrong & the commanders (arguably the best Christmas song ever?!)\nLabels: baking, Christmas, dried fruit, pudding, recipe, stir up sunday, yeo valley",

        "raw_content": "NSA Reimbursed Email Providers for Unconstitutional Surveillance Cooperation\nWhoever said that crime doesn\u2019t pay, never broke the law for the National Security Agency.\nAccording to documents leaked by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, the spy agency forked over millions of dollars to several major Internet companies after some of their surveillance work was ruled illegal. But the real puzzle is why the web giants\u2014which include Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and Facebook\u2014were entitled to the money in the first place.\nAccording to a brief article in a secret NSA newsletter dated December 2012, \u201clast year\u2019s problems resulted in multiple extensions to the certifications\u2019 expiration dates which cost millions of dollars for Prism providers to implement each successive extension \u2013 costs covered by Special Source Operations.\u201d SSO, according to Snowden, is the agency\u2019s \u201ccrown jewel\u201d that handles \u201ccorporate partnerships\u201d with telecoms and Internet providers.\nThe problems referred to concerned the October 3, 2011 ruling by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) that NSA snooping aimed at foreigners abroad violated the Fourth Amendment by sweeping in too many wholly U.S. Internet communications\u201456,000 per year for 3 years. Chief Judge John Bates also criticized the agency for misrepresenting the actual scope of a major program for the third time in three years.\nAlthough federal law requires the government to pay compensation \u201cat the prevailing rate\u201d to companies for \u201cproviding information, facilities or assistance\u201d in complying with surveillance, it is unclear why the companies incurred any costs, much less millions of dollars, simply to extend some expiration dates.\nIn fact, an older secret newsletter, dated October 2011 and written within days of Judge Bates\u2019s ruling, indicates that the transition to new certificates was already nearly complete: \u201cAll Prism providers, except Yahoo and Google, were successfully transitioned to the new certifications. We expect Yahoo and Google to complete transitioning by Friday 6 October.\u201d\nNeither the NSA nor the tech companies could explain what happened at a cost of millions of dollars\u2014or if anything happened at all. Because of the secret nature of the NSA budget, independent oversight of program level spending is basically impossible, creating rich opportunities for fraud and abuse.\nGoogle\u2014whose corporate motto is the faux-hip slogan \u201cDon\u2019t Be Evil,\u201d\u2014and the other firms also have some explaining to do. Since June 6, when The Guardian first revealed the existence of the NSA snooping, the companies have denied any knowledge of it and insisted that they do not actively participate in surveillance, handing over user data only in response to specific legal requests from the authorities.\nIn a statement Friday, Google repeated that it has \u201cnot joined Prism or any government surveillance programs,\u201d but refused to answer questions about the October 2011 ruling or the certification issue. The other named companies issued similar statements.\nNSA Paid Millions to Cover Prism Compliance Costs for Tech Companies (by Ewan McAskill, The Guardian)\nInternet Companies Paid Millions for Spying Work (by Nick Divito, Courthouse News Service)\nN.S.A.

        "raw_content": "Gentrified San Francisco Has No Place for Homeless Chess Players\n(photo: Jim Herd, SF Citizen)\nA group of chess players, many of them homeless, have been kicked off the sidewalk at Fifth and Market Street in San Francisco, where competitors have matched wits and irked shop owners for 30 years.\nThe chess games, played on card tables by an ever-changing group of competitors, were busted up by the San Francisco Police Department a few weeks ago after what the authorities said were an average of 100 complaints a month. The police took the boards, the chess pieces, the tables and chairs.\nSFPD Capt. Michael Redmond told the San Francisco Business Times that the games were used to disguise illegal activities that included drug sales, illegal gambling and \u201cbarbecues on the street.\u201d\nBut some observers feel the real crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time. That stretch of Market Street, like many areas of the city, has undergone marked gentrification and the block where the chess players held court is slated for a 10-story arts and education center, along with 250 housing units, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. A number of tech companies have also recently moved into the hood, including Twitter, Yammer and Zendesk.\nStore owners complained that their businesses were negatively affected by the street activity. One manager at a beauty salon complained to a Chronicle reporter that women would clutch their purses under their arms as they passed and others would cross the street to avoid the chess players. But there was no mention in any of the media stories about violent incidents, robberies or anyone\u2019s safety being threatened as a result of their presence.\nIt\u2019s not the first time police have cracked down on the chess players. SF Weekly reported in June 2010 that the players were chased away, and thought to be gone for good. But they eventually resurfaced.\nThere has been talk of finding a new home for the street players. Many cities have sanctioned places for such gatherings, like the Santa Monica chess park at the beach near Los Angeles, but, so far, no one has established a new San Francisco venue.\nEndgame: S.F.

She is also a leader within the international health research community.\nBefore embarking on a health research career, Professor Hubbard worked as a secondary school teacher from 1988 and then as a lecturer at Newcastle College, before gaining her PhD in education at the University of Sunderland in 1997.\nThe university\u2019s principal and vice-chancellor, Professor Clive Mulholland, said: \u201cThe title of professor is the highest level of academic achievement which can be awarded. It is reserved for individuals who are recognised as leaders in their field and have demonstrated excellence in their work. Professor Hubbard has made an immense contribution to scholarship and research nationally and internationally in health services research. Gill\u2019s leadership of health research will be integral to the university\u2019s mission to extend our research and specialist curriculum while serving our region and community.\u201d\nProfessor Hubbard said: \u201c\u2019I am delighted to have been awarded a personal chair since overseeing the smooth transition of research activities from the University of Stirling to our university when we undertook the provision of nursing education in the Highlands and Islands in 2017. I have enjoyed the privilege of working with such a great bunch of people and much of my success is down to their hard work and support over the years.\u201d\nProfessor Hubbard will be presenting her inaugural professorial lecture with her colleague, Professor Annetta Smith, head of the department of nursing at the University of the Highlands and Islands, on Tuesday 26 June at the Centre for Health Science in Inverness.

        "title": "Where Men Are People &amp; Women, Dolls: A Review Of Ridley Scott&#39;s &quot;The Martian&quot;",
        "raw_content": "Where Men Are People & Women, Dolls: A Review Of Ridley Scott's \"The Martian\"\nAn otherwise outstanding movie is marred by the pervasive portrayal of men as complicated, three-dimensional beings versus women who exist mostly to nod their heads and smile.\nMatt Damon of course is phenomenal. As NASA Astronaut Mark Watley, stranded on Mars after a mission gone bad, he breathes life into the role of a man whose training, ingenuity and attitude wind up saving his life.\nSupported by an exceptional cast of men and women alike, Damon captures the soaring spirit upon which NASA itself was founded. On a broader level we can see the vision of President John F. Kennedy at work, one in which all of humankind work together to solve impossible problems, making life on Earth better for all.\nSituated as it is in an environment of growing chaos and terror in the real world, \u201cThe Martian\u201d offers a world-uniting way. Rather than competing, we can cooperate to solve the kinds of stubborn and pressing problems that keep all of us from realizing our dreams.\nSolve one problem after another, one foot in front of the other, using all the skills at our disposal and all the creativity of the team, and we have a chance of making it.\nOr as Watley says: \u201cIn the face of overwhelming odds, I'm left with only one option. I'm gonna have to science the s**t out of this.\u201d\nWatching Damon\u2019s performance, I couldn\u2019t help but think of Sandra Bullock and her outstanding performance as Ryan Stone in \u201cGravity.\u201d In both movies, we get to see through a normally impenetrable armor -- the carefully crafted persona of the scientist. We see them human, suffering, crying, racking their brains to survive while also preparing for an imminent death.\nUnlike \u201cGravity,\u201d however, the action in \u201cThe Martian\u201d centers as much on the culture of NASA as on the astronaut - or at least that culture as director Ridley Scott imagines it.\nAnd this is where the movie goes off the rails where gender is concerned. For the female characters in this movie, unlike the men, are nothing more than bobble heads, nodding at things the men say while periodically uttering a word or two.\nKristen Wiig as media relations chief Annie Montrose is the most obvious example. Why, oh why would you reduce such a powerful, versatile female character actress to a mannequin? There\u2019s Annie, wearing a black suit without a turtleneck. There she is, with. Now she\u2019s onstage at the press conference. Now she\u2019s saying, \u201cWe\u2019re not letting you in front of a microphone ever again.\u201d And in the most degrading sequence, she actually has to stand there as a small object is flicked on her forehead during the course of a meeting with the NASA director.\nIt is not that the women in the movie occupy traditional female roles, low-level jobs, or are portrayed as crazy or incompetent. Thankfully those old Hollywood stereotypes aren\u2019t here. It is that, unlike the men, the females are not granted the privilege of being human.\nThe men in this movie are all kinds of interesting. Here\u2019s Jeff Daniels as NASA Director Teddy Sanders, dealing with the President, the media, and the scientists whose creativity make or break the program. He\u2019s got mutiny from the one and genius from the other and has to keep his head on straight throughout.\nThere\u2019s Sean Bean as Mitch Henderson, the head of the crew, who makes good decisions and bad decisions and is tormented by them all.\nThere\u2019s Chiwetel Ejiofor as Vincent Kapoor, in charge of Mars Missions, trying desperately to save one man, confounded by the sheer number of variables involved in accomplishing that task while keeping the space program afloat at the same time.\nOn and on it goes...there\u2019s Benedict Wong as Bruce Ng, head of the Jet Propulsion Lab, operating on a timeline that grows shorter by the day. As a character we are with him as he scratches his head and labors and sweats to do what is asked, trying not to reveal worry rising to the level of panic.\nBut the women are so simple, and untroubled, and bland. Jessica Chastain plays Melissa Lewis, head of the Mars crew. She is standard-issue \u201cstrong yet feminine\u201d all the way, nothing surprising there and not one word comes out of her mouth that would surprise you. Kate Mara plays Beth Johanssen, \u201cthe geek\u201d and the most interesting thing about her is a sexuality that seems unorthodox at first, but by the end is rather unsurprising.\nOn and on the story goes. It\u2019s well-told, it\u2019s exciting, it made me laugh and lifted my heart and more than once I cried.\nBut I walked out of the movie theater with a bad taste in my mouth, too. It\u2019s the \u201cwoman problem,\u201d that big blob of issues that seems to come up over and over again and just as frequently gets shoved aside.\nRidley Scott is a phenomenal director whose most notable characters inspire feminist dreams. Who can forget Demi Moore as the you-will-never-break-me Lieutenant Jordan O'Neil in \u201cG.I. Jane?\u201d Or Sigourney Weaver as the ultimate warrior hero in \u201cAlien,\u201d Warrant Officer/Lieutenant Ellen Ripley?\n\u201cThe Martian\u201d suffers from its lack of dimensional women. It\u2019s not about affirmative action for the cast. It is about making art that speaks honestly to the viewer.\nFor me, the lack of human-ness in the representation of female characters in \u201cThe Martian\u201d caused the movie to fall a bit flat.\nFederal communicator and co-founder, All Things Brand\nwww.allthingsbrand.com\n@allthingsbrand\nDannielle Blumenthal, Ph.D., is a visionary thought leader, writer, speaker, social networker, federal communicator and co-founder of the best practices portal All Things Brand.

        "title": "Animal Crossing Community",
        "raw_content": "Q: What is COPPA?\nA: COPPA stands for Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, and is a law that was made effective April 21, 2000 in order to protect the privacy of children under 13 on web sites. The law itself is quite complex, and you can read more about it at COPPA.org and FTC.gov.\nQ: How does COPPA affect Animal Crossing Community?\nA: ACC, like many other online sites, requires an email address in order to register and also allows interaction with other members of the site through public and private discussions. Additionally, ACC allows members to post various pieces of personal information, such as their name, location, picture, interests, and IM screen names into a personal profile viewable only by other ACC members. COPPA requires sites, like ACC, that allow such interaction and info sharing to obtain parental consent before collecting any personal information from children under 13. This means that children under 13 need parental consent to participate on the site. For members 13 and older, parental consent is not needed.\nQ: What happens to children under 13 when they sign up?\nA: If a member indicates that they are under 13 years of age when signing up, they are given the option to enter their parent's email address. An email is sent to the parent with an explanation of the site and why we require permission for the child to participate on ACC. Instructions for denying or providing consent is included in the e-mail. If the parent gives consent then the child is allowed to participate on ACC just like all other ACC members.\nQ: What happens to existing members?\nA: Existing members that previously provided their birth date will follow the same rules as those new members that sign up. If they are under 13, they will be prompted to provide parental consent before continuing to participate on ACC. If they cannot provide parental consent, then all personal information in their account is wiped out and their account is inactivated. For existing members that have not provided a birth date, they will be prompted to enter a birth date before being able to continue participation on ACC. Again, same rules apply if the existing member is under 13 or not. All under 13 members must provide parental consent to continue participation on ACC.\nQ: Now that I have to provide my birthday, will everyone be able to see it?\nA: All members now have the option to show or hide their birthday from their profile, and from the homepage birthday list. You can choose to show your birth day/month in your profile and on the homepage birthday list, or just show your age, or both. By default, all members' birthdays are hidden when signing up.\nQ: What happens if the parent denies consent?\nA: Parents can deny consent to allow their children to participate on ACC. When this happens, the child's account is removed.\nQ: What happens if the parent fails to provide or deny consent?\nA: After 30 days from signup have passed (or 30 days from going live with the COPPA changes), if a parent has not given consent, the child's account will be deleted, or in the event of an existing member, their personal information wiped out.\nQ: What do parents have to do to give consent?\nA: If a parent chooses to give consent to ACC for allowing their child to participate, they must donate $0.30 to PayPal through the Parental Consent Form. The donation is used because a credit card transaction is an acceptable form of parental consent. The $0.30 is used to cover the fee that PayPal charges for the transaction. ACC receives no part of the donation.\nQ: Is sending money through PayPal safe?\nA: We feel that PayPal is perfectly safe and secure. We have been accepting donations through PayPal for several years, and have a long list of members that have previously donated and have never heard anyone complain about the safety of their transactions. If you are concerned about the safety and security of the online payment, you can purchase a Visa or Master Card gift card, and use that for your donation.\nQ: Are there no other options for parental consent? What about a letter or phone call?\nA: While COPPA does accept letters and phone calls as methods for parental consent, ACC cannot accept these methods of consent because we are a privately operated site, and do not have the resources or time to handle the receiving and processing of letters and phone calls. Besides credit card transactions, these are the only other two acceptable methods of parental consent.\nQ: What about having the parent send an email?\nA: COPPA will not accept email as a method of parental consent for ACC, as this can easily be falsified.",

        "title": "Digitally Modeling the Biospheres of Novels | Ant Spider Bee",
        "raw_content": "By Alicia Peaker\nThis post is based on work from a larger project described in more detail here.\nI began with a single question: How might the natural worlds of novels be represented digitally? The more I grew into the question, the more I loved the imaginative possibilities and space provided by the word \u201cmight.\u201d Freed from the onus of having to find a single model, I entered the realm of what was possible.\nMy single research question grew into a series of questions (as they so often do): What would a digital representation of an ecosystem or biosphere of a novel even look like? Can we develop useful digital models for better contextualizing human characters within the fictional natural worlds they inhabit? And what impacts might such models have on the ways we read and understand literatures of the environment?\nTo begin to get at these questions, I selected Mary Webb\u2019s 1917 novel Gone to Earth as a primary text for some initial prototypes. Gone to Earth tells the story of Hazel Woodus, a young woman who lives with her father and a menagerie of rescued animals in the mountains of East Wales. Though Hazel is supremely happy in her world, two male suitors (one a minister, the other the local squire) begin vying for her attention\u2014with tragic results.\nI opted to begin with this novel in large part because it has a high incidence of what might be called \u201cnature words\u201d and because Webb has fallen into some obscurity, in spite of critical acclaim during her lifetime. If she is remembered at all, it is often as a major source of Stella Gibbon\u2019s parody Cold Comfort Farm (1932). What follows are some early attempts to get at my larger research questions via Webb\u2019s novel.\nAs part of this project, I have been developing a series of interactive web apps that attempt to visualize the connections between the humans and the more-than-human world they inhabit within the novel. In the visualization below, I have collected and displayed all of the words tagged \u201cfauna\u201d that appear within 45 characters (the average length of a sentence) of words tagged \u201cHazel.\u201d\nI think of these pieces as modeling moments of interspecies textual cohabitation. Though the image above is static, you can interact with the web-like diagrams of all of the visualizations in this series by visiting http://bl.ocks.org/peakera.\nOne of the major drawbacks of these visualizations is that they put humans at the center of the diagram. If my goal is contextualize humans within the environments they inhabit, these visualizations do that\u2014but at the expense of visually overemphasizing the importance of human beings.\nSecond, the strands that connect humans with their natural worlds don\u2019t tell us anything about the kind of relationships they have with nonhuman others. For example, in one poignant moment in the novel, Reddin brings an urchin (a colloquial word for a hedgehog) back to Hazel. \u201c\u2018Oh! it\u2019s an urchin!\u2019 cried Hazel delightedly.\u201d Reddin then proceeds to torture the hedgehog \u201cbruising and pulling at its spines with his gloved hands\u201d (Ch. 28).\nIn the visualizations, both Hazel and Reddin are linked to the urchin, but their relationships are dramatically different. Though the tendrils that connect the two humans to the urchin appear as if weighted equally, users can select a word in the radial diagram to view the context from the novel, providing at least a partial picture of the depth and tenor of the interaction.\nI want to be clear that these visualizations in no way stand in for the novel, or even for readings of the novel. Instead, I think of this work aligning with Jerome McGann and Lisa Samuels\u2019s argument that \u201cinterpretation of works of imagination call[] for responsive works of imagination, not reflexive works of analysis\u201d (109). These visuals are my response to the novel, and to the possibilities of representing biospheres of fictional worlds.\nWhat imaginative responses to the natural worlds of novels have you created or witnessed? Share them in the comments below or on Twitter.\nAlicia Peaker is the Mellon CLIR/DLF Postdoctoral Fellow in the Digital Liberal Arts at Middlebury College.\nBy Kimberly Coulter Environmental destruction has often been fueled by such taken-for-granted tenets of Modernism\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Lumen, an immersive, interactive installation by Jenny Sabin Studio, will be on view in MoMA PS1\u2019s courtyard during summer 2017. Winner of The Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1\u2019s annual Young Architects Program, this year\u2019s structure evolves over the course of the day, with responsive textiles that display subtle color in sunlight and emit glowing light after sundown. Made of over 1 million yards of digitally knitted fiber, Lumen\u2018s large-scale cellular canopies feature 250 hanging tubular structures, 100 robotically woven recycled spool stools, and a misting system that responds to visitors\u2019 proximity. Socially and environmentally responsive, Lumen\u2019s adaptive architecture is inspired by collective levity, play, and interaction as the structure transforms throughout the day and night, responding to the density of bodies, heat, and sunlight. The result of collaboration across disciplines, Lumen applies insights and theories from biology, materials science, mathematics, and engineering\u2014integrating high-performing, formfitting, and adaptive materials into a structure where code, pattern, human interaction, environment, geometry, and matter operate together. Lumen serves as the setting for the 20th season of Warm Up, MoMA PS1\u2019s pioneering outdoor music series.\nThe other finalists for the Young Architects Program 2017 were Bureau Spectacular (Jimenez Lai and Joanna Grant), Ania Jaworska, Office of III (Sean Canty, Ryan Golenberg, and Stephanie Lin), and SCHAUM/SHIEH (Rosalyne Shieh and Troy Schaum). An exhibition of the five finalists\u2019 proposed projects will be on view at The Museum of Modern Art from July 1 to September 4, 2017.\nThe YAP exhibition will also be hosted by our international partners at MMCA, Seoul, South Korea (Opening July 10, 2017) and CONSTRUCTO, Santiago, Chile (March 8 \u2013 April 30, 2018).\nNow in its 18th edition, the Young Architects Program at The Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1 has offered emerging architectural talent the opportunity to design and present innovative projects, challenging each year\u2019s winners to develop creative designs for a temporary, outdoor installation that provides shade, seating, and water.

        "title": "In the kitchen food network apps 2012 | Apps Hyper",
        "raw_content": "In the kitchen food network apps 2012\nIf you spend a lot of time with Guy Fieri, Rachael Ray and Bobby Flay on TV, why not take these chefs into your kitchen via your iPad?The new and improved Food Network in the Kitchen for iPad adds a number of features not found in the original app released in November 2010. It offers a fresh user interface, recipe-comparison tool, user ratings and reviews, and the ability to add notes to recipes.The app gets it mostly right for foodies looking for something fresh and fun to whip up, but a few missing ingredients mean users might still be hungry for more.At its core, Food Network in the Kitchen features more than 40,000 recipes culled from its various TV shows and personalities. There are three parts to the main menu: Chefs, Collections and Featured recipes by theme (such as, Valentine\u2019s Day meals and desserts).All three main areas can be swiped left and right or up and down, so you can tap on one of the large thumbnails for content. Under Chefs, touch the square belonging to Giada De Laurentiis, Paula Deen or Alton Brown, for example, to be taken to their collection of recipes. All are then separated into recently added, popular and editor\u2019s picks.\nThe \u201ccollections\u201d area segregates all of the app\u2019s recipes by cuisine (Mexican, Italian, Asian and so on) and by type of food (such as chicken) or other categories (brunch, side dishes, comfort food and quick & easy, to name a few).\nEach recipe you land on has a full list of ingredients and directions (with three font sizes to choose from), a photo (tap to expand), total time (prep and cook), yield (number of servings) and difficulty level (easy, medium, difficult). You can now type notes for each recipe, read users\u2019 ratings (out of five stars) and comments, flag the recipe as a favorite, tap to add the ingredients to a shopping list or share via e-mail, Facebook or Twitter.\nToo bad there isn\u2019t any nutritional information for each recipe. And you can\u2019t change the yield number and have the app automatically recalculate the number of ingredients (say, if you\u2019re cooking for five, but the yield is for two servings); other cookbook apps have simplified this process for you. Another \u201cbeef\u201d: There is no option to wirelessly print the recipe, but you can e-mail and then print from a computer, if you like.\nAlso curiously missing is video. With an app called Food Network in the Kitchen, you\u2019d think there would be many video clips pulled from the various TV shows to see how the pros do it. After all, many other cookbook apps we\u2019ve reviewed in this space have video, including Jamie Oliver\u2019s Jamie\u2019s Recipes, MyRecipes Daily Indulgence and the Big Book of BBQ.\nOne of the welcome new features, however, is a side-by-side recipe-comparison tool. Not sure if you should make Italian barbecued chicken with polenta or chicken parmesan? A recipe-comparison option lets you look at multiple recipes side by side to make the decision \u2014 perhaps based on cooking time or what ingredients you already have.Finally, there are a few other tools, such as a unit converter (by volume or weight) and five timers (which can be used simultaneously or one at a time).\nWhile not perfect, Food Network in the Kitchen is an appetizing $2 addendum to the TV network, as it houses thousands of recipes from various TV shows and the website into an easy-to-use and attractive digital cookbook. Hopefully, the developer will add a few missing ingredients sooner rather than later, including video, to make the app even more tasty.\nAfter its most recent update Food Network in the Kitchen now offers a more complete cooking experience. In version 3.0 users can now plan meals and shopping lists, watch how-to videos, and enjoy deeper iOS integration. The iPhone/iPod touch version of the app also enjoyed a complete overhaul, but though the two platforms offer slightly different experience, users only have to pay for the app once, since it is a universal binary.\niPad-toting foodies can still access recipes from their favorite celebrity chefs including Rachael Ray, Bobby Flay, and Paula Deen, but now users can browse through recipes by chef, theme, or collection, so it\u2019s easy to find just what you\u2019re looking for.\nWhether the user is updating or downloading the app for the first time Food Network in the Kitchen begins with a brief summary of its features.The app is divided into three main screens: Chefs, Collections, and a seasonal theme \u2014 right now it\u2019s Tailgating. It was easy to browse through the app\u2019s wide variety of offerings.I checked out the healthy collection, and compared Ellie Krieger\u2019s Beef Stroganoff to Tyler Florence\u2019s version. To compare recipes simply tap the folder icon in the upper-right, then choose the Prepare & Plan icon from the menu at the top of the screen. Comparing recipes is useful to see how long each will take and which is healthier. Ellie Krieger\u2019s Beef Stroganoff takes 3 hours less than Tyler Florence\u2019s to make, and skips the whopping 11 tablespoons of oil and butter. I know what I\u2019m making for dinner tonight.\nDownload Food Network in the Kitchen from the App Store for $1.99.\nWhat I liked: Small details like being able to increase text size or cross off ingredients as the user goes through a recipe make Food Network in the Kitchen a pleasure to use.What I didn\u2019t like: The recipes tend to be less healthy than those I typically cook, so even though I enjoyed using Food Network in the Kitchen, it probably won\u2019t be my go-to cooking app. Also, there targeted ads embedded in the app. If I pay for an app I don\u2019t want to see advertising, even if the ad in question features something I\u2019m interested in, which, in this case was Anthony Bourdain\u2019s new show on the Travel Channel.\nTo buy or not to buy: Food Network in the Kitchen is definitely one of the best values in the App Store. For only $1.99 users can access features often found in pricier apps. The how-to videos alone are easily worth the purchase price. Despite all the new features, Food Network in the Kitchen takes up a mere 15.3 MB, so it won\u2019t hog your storage, or break your pocketbook.\n2012, In the kitchen food network apps",

        "raw_content": "Measuring, monitoring and communicating on our social impact\nAngkor is a social company specialized in Cambodian fine Arts & Crafts, which strives to preserve traditional know-how in handicrafts. Our priority number one, however, is the fair development of local communities - leading to empowerment - and poverty alleviation for the people living in rural areas.\nPoverty alleviation in remote rural areas\nAnother important point is that we chose to decentralize our main economic activity in rural workshops (next to the rural villages) so that our artisans can work near their families, and to lower the phenomenon of rural depopulation of the Siem Reap province. It generates economic development for remote rural areas, with better social inclusion as a result.\nBut how to assess whether and how this is really helping the beneficiaries (Which means concretely bringing to them a measurable benefit, as compared to populations with similar background who were not enrolled in Artisans Angkor program) ?\nA meaningful partnership\nPlan\u00e8te Urgence is a French association who supports projects being implemented in vulnerable contexts, where local people are socially and economically. They sent us a volunteer, whose mission was to create a long term survey to help us see how our social actions were really helping our artisans (direct beneficiaries) and their families/relatives (indirect beneficiaries).\nData collection through a survey campaign\nIt can be grouped into 5 overlapping categories:\n1. Lifestyle impacts \u2013 on the way people behave and relate to family, friends and cohorts on a day-to-day basis\n2. Cultural impacts \u2013 on shared customs, obligations, values, language, religious belief and other elements which make a social or ethnic group distinct\n3. Community impacts \u2013 on infrastructure, services, voluntary organizations, activity networks and cohesion\n4. Quality of life impacts \u2013 on sense of place, aesthetics and heritage, perception of belonging, security and livability, and aspirations for the future\n5. Health impacts \u2013 on mental, physical and social well-being, although these aspects are also the subject of health impact assessment.\nThe survey will be conducted each year, among the artisans from the crafts workshops and silk farm. It is based on what we can call \u201cnon-income indicators\u201d and is meant to answer questions regarding the quality of housing (ownership of the house, size, electricity, internet, materials the house was built with), health (health care, pregnancy, child sickness\u2026), education (school enrollment of the children), satisfaction at work, well-being, and so on.\nFor example, we found out that 98.3% of the artisans children were enrolled in school last year, which is very encouraging.",

This summer, the company\u2019s Producing Artistic Director Roberto Prestigiacomo is taking a big leap into a new performance space with 14; a piece that incorporates a variety of theatrical techniques to tell the story of a young girl\u2019s journey through a post-9/11 world.\nMr. Prestigiacomo was kind enough to sit down with ArtsBeatLA and discuss this ambitious production in detail.\nWhat was the inspiration behind 14?\nThe world has changed a lot since 9/11; it\u2019s become a more dangerous place. Parents no longer feel comfortable telling their children to go out and play \u2013 they\u2019re concerned for their safety. As the father of a young daughter myself, if I couldn\u2019t give her a better world in real life, I could create one through art, and 14 is the result. It\u2019s the story of a girl\u2019s journey from birth to age 14, told through dance, movement, aerial performance and video design.\nThe piece references the writings of mythologist Joseph Campbell, whose work continues to inspire me. 14 is similar in structure to Campbell\u2019s monomyth, in that the protagonist ventures into a world of wonder, facing many challenges and conquering fears to emerge triumphant. Here, the hero is called Maia.\nCan you describe the plot?\nThe story begins with a symbolic recreation of the events of 9/11 as a reminder of how the world has been permanently altered by that catastrophe. Afterwards, Maia is introduced and her journey begins as she is led into a life of adventure. Her will is tested on the Road of Trials, and she must face numerous challenges head-on in order to achieve contentment.\nHow is the piece structured?\nIt is divided into 18 key segments of varying lengths representing stages of Maia\u2019s journey. Each segment utilizes different theatrical techniques to tell the story. For example, the section entitled \u201cThe Wonders of the Universe\u201d involves aerial work, and another named \u201cDoors \u2013 the Road of Trials\u201d incorporates movement.\nVideo projections and video-mapping are utilized throughout, as they allow us to quickly vary the backgrounds and characters in a way that would be impossible to do with physical sets and costuming.\nWho are your collaborators on the piece? How do you work with them?\nSeme Jatib provided the choreography of the contemporary dance and Mireya Guerra provided the movement choreography. Julia Langenberg of Aerial Horizon developed the aerial choreography, and Stefano Di Buduo of Aesop Studio developed the video and virtual scenic design.\nThis was a true collaboration. Working with a storyboard I created, each team member had the opportunity to bring his or her artistic vision to the piece while maintaining thematic harmony overall. The result is a work that is quite unlike the projects AtticRep has presented in the past and represents an exciting new direction for the company.\nWhat will audiences take away from 14?\nIt\u2019s my hope that audiences will be captivated by the presentation and uplifted by the message of the story. It\u2019s what every parent wants for their child \u2013 the opportunity to find his or her own bliss.\n14 plays June 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18 at 8 p.m. and June 12 and 19, 2016 at 2:30 p.m. at the Carlos Alvarez Studio Theater, Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, 100 Auditorium Circle.

        "raw_content": "When I was at Watkins Glen for rounds 9 and 10 of the Global Mazda MX-5 Cup Series, we visited Farm Sanctuary, which is only about 20 minutes away from the track. Mazda MX-5 Cup\u2019s Dean Case introduced us to the place, and a number of IMSA drivers also visit when they have race weekends at Watkins Glen.\nFarm Sanctuary is a 175-acre shelter for farm animals. They do things like rehabbing animals and helping nurse sick ones back to health. It was cool to meet some of the animals who had been through tough times, and to see how they look now compared to how they did before they were rescued. While I was there they brought in a cow that had fallen off the back of a truck, resulting in a severe skin condition.\nThe shelter has tons of goats, sheep, alpacas, bulls, and we even got to stand next to a cow that weighed almost 3,000 pounds! He was named Tweed, and he was so sweet. A lot of the pigs were huge, and it was cool to see just how big they can actually be!\nIt\u2019s cool to see the other side of these animals, like how calm and laid back the cows were, and how they let us hug and touch them. The sheep walked up to us, leaned on us and nibbled on our jackets. They just want to be hugged and get attention.\nWe also met a goat who was in a wheelchair since his back legs don\u2019t work, and he was running around in that. It was so good to see the little guy still able to get around thanks to the help he got from Farm Sanctuary.\nI\u2019m heading into the season finale for MX-5 Cup this weekend at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. On Friday, we\u2019ll be visiting the Monterey SPCA. Stay tuned for more animal pictures, as well as a report on our final event this season.

        "raw_content": "18 July 2016 | United Nations Environment Programme News Release\n18 July 2016 \u2013 Developing countries such as Kenya, Bangladesh and Jordan are leading the world on green finance, which is essential to meet the world\u2019s sustainable development aspirations, according to a new report from the Inquiry into the Design of a Sustainable Financial System.\nReleased to coincide with the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development in New York, the report, Green Finance and Non-G20 Developing Countries, captures progress being made by 13 countries across Africa, Asia and Central America.\n\u201cToday, there are numerous examples of developing countries showing strong leadership on green finance,\u201d said Erik Solheim, Executive Director of UN Environment. \u201cThis is extremely positive, as private capital will be a major contributor to delivering on the Sustainable Development Goals and climate commitments.\u201d\nIn order to reach the US$5-7 trillion a year needed to implement the Sustainable Development Goals, the financial system must mobilize finance for specific sustainable development priorities and ensure sustainable development factors are included in financial decision-making.\nThe report shows how developing countries are leading the world in taking these steps, highlighting the lessons that can be drawn from their leadership in aligning financial market development with national priorities and sustainable development.\nThe countries surveyed, as part of their innovative approaches, are implementing new models inspired by developments in fintech (the use of technology to make financial services more efficient).\n\u201cGreen finance is burgeoning; it has reached the point of spontaneous combustion,\u201d Nuru Mugambi, Director of Communications for the Kenya Bankers Association. \u201cBut it needs to be aligned. It needs to go beyond the leadership of a few champions and be coordinated across regional trading blocks.\u201d\nGreen Finance in Action\nIn Kenya, the rapid growth of mobile banking has become a platform to enable renewable energy. Several companies offer pay-as-you-go solar home systems that use mobile payments to unlock the use of the solar panel and battery system each day. This in turn enables customers to build up a credit history, which can be used to access additional loans.\nIn Bangladesh, the central bank has led a sustained initiative to ingrain inclusive and environmentally sustainable financing in the country\u2019s financial sector, establishing mandatory environmental risk management and also offering a low-cost refinance window for green lending.\nThe Central Bank of Jordan has launched a national strategy on financial inclusion including SME finance, women\u2019s access to financing and the protection of consumers of financial services.\nMorocco\u2019s Central Bank has committed to sustainable development as part of its formal strategy and is taking first steps in the field of green finance. It has held meetings with banks to explore regulatory and voluntary options towards developing a roadmap for finance reform for a green economy.\nThe Philippines is developing a public-private disaster insurance pool, and will make disaster insurance compulsory for homeowners and SMEs. This will provide families and small businesses with more rapid and reliable support for reconstruction and will support fiscal and financial stability in a country where natural events can result in losses of several points of GDP.\nIn Central America, the regional business school INCAE has developed an ECOBANKING programme to improve the Latin American financial sector\u2019s competitiveness through better environmental management and by designing innovative financial products.\nThe State Bank of Vietnam and the Vietnam Bankers Association have been working to develop Environmental and social risk management guidelines for the banking sector. They have drawn on international best practices on environmental and social risk management, including through South-South knowledge with the China Banking Regulatory Commission and Industrial Bank.\nUnited Nations Environment Programme Newsdesk (Nairobi), +254 725 939 620, unepnewsdesk@unep.org\nLink to original article: http://www.unep.org/newscentre/Default.aspx?DocumentID=27079&ArticleID=36231&l=en",

        "title": "Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 Provides Additional Protections for Employers Against Trade Secret Theft | Bailey & Ehrenberg - Benefits and Employment Law Firm",
        "raw_content": "The Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (DTSA) (to be codified at 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 1836), a sweeping new federal law, became effective on May 11, 2016.\nThis new law provides federal jurisdiction over civil lawsuits to protect trade secrets. The DTSA allows a company that has had its trade secrets stolen to bring a civil suit for damages and injunctive relief in federal court. The company may also obtain an ex parte civil seizure to recover stolen trade secrets.\nBefore the DTSA, claims for theft of trade secrets had to be brought under state law. Only the U.S. Attorney General could suit for trade secret theft under federal law, and then could only obtain injunctive relief.\nThe DTSA seeks to create a uniform standard for trade secret theft and provide uniform discovery procedures.\nThe law defines a \u201ctrade secret\u201d to include all forms and types of financial, business, scientific, technical, economic, or engineering information, if:\n\u2022 The owner takes reasonable measures to keep such information secret; and\n\u2022 The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily discoverable through proper means by, the public.\nThe theft of a trade secrets includes such \u201cimproper means\u201d as theft, bribery, misrepresentation, breach of contract, or espionage. It does not include reverse engineering, independent derivation, or any other lawful means of acquisition.\nSome other key provisions of the DTSA include:\n\u2022 The law expands federal jurisdiction to create a private right of action in federal court for theft of trade secrets. This includes theft by an employee or independent contractor of the company.\n\u2022 It allows recovery of:\no Actual damages,\no Restitution (including compensation for \u201cunjust enrichment\u201d caused by the taking that is not included in the actual loss),\no A \u201creasonable royalty,\u201d where actual damages are difficult to calculate,\no Punitive damages (up to two times the award of actual damages), and\no Attorney\u2019s fees (where a claim of trade secret theft was made in bad faith, or the trade secret was willfully and maliciously stolen).\n\u2022 The DTSA allows the court to enter a preliminary or permanent to stop the taking or threatened taking of a trade secret. The injunction may also require a person to take affirmative measures to protect the trade secret, or (in extraordinary circumstances) allow future use of the trade secret only on payment of a reasonable royalty.\no However, the court may not grant injunctive relief if it would prevent a person from entering into an employment relationship. The court may only place conditions a person entering an employment relationship \u201cbased on evidence of threatened misappropriation and not merely on the information the person knows\u201d (emphasis added). This language was added to bar companies from pursuing anti-competitive injunctions based on the idea that new employment will \u201cinevitably\u201d lead the employee to disclose the company\u2019s trade secrets.\n\u2022 The court may order law enforcement officers to seize property, in order recover trade secrets that have been stolen, without notice to the alleged wrongdoer beforehand. The order may only be issued if specific facts establish that:\no \u201cAn immediate and irreparable injury will occur if such seizure is not ordered,\u201d\no The harm to the applicant of denying the application outweighs the harm to the legitimate interests of the alleged wrongdoer, and substantially outweighs the harm to any third parties who may be harmed by the seizure;\no The plaintiff will likely prevail on the merits of the claim of trade secret theft;\no The alleged wrongdoer, or persons acting in concert with him or her, would destroy, move, hide, or otherwise make the trade secret inaccessible if the court provided notice to him or her; and\no The applicant has not publicized the requested seizure.\n\u2022 An immunity provision is included to protect individuals from criminal or civil liability for disclosing a trade secret in confidence to a government official or to an attorney for the purpose of reporting a violation of law. In addition, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual (1) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (2) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. The DTSA requires employers to provide employees notice of the new immunity provision in \u201cany contract or agreement with an employee that governs the use of a trade secret or other confidential information.\u201d Should an employer not provide the required notice, the employer may not recover punitive damages or attorney\u2019s fees in an action brought under the DTSA against an employee who did not receive the notice. For purposes of the notice provision, the term \u2018employee\u2019 includes contractors and consultants.\n\u2022 The statute of limitations is 3 years from the date on which the theft is discovered, or by the exercise of reasonable diligence should have been discovered.\nEmployers are encouraged to update their existing policies and agreements to meet the requirements of this new law. All employment and independent contractor agreements should have clear definitions of what constitutes a \u201ctrade secret,\u201d and should refer to the DTSA and its broad enforcement provisions where appropriate. Employers should also conduct a review to identify what valuable information they have that might be protected as a trade secret, and make sure that proper procedures are in place for preserving the confidentiality of their trade secrets.\nThe experienced attorneys at Bailey & Ehrenberg PLLC handle claims of trade secret theft in litigation, and also provide counseling, review and training on issues related to trade secret protection.

        "title": "Happy Birthday PBA Commissioner Chito Salud : Let's All Greet Him | BallersPinas: Philippine Basketball and Sports Scene Delivered Fresh",
        "raw_content": "Happy Birthday PBA Commissioner Chito Salud : Let's All Greet Him\nHe is the 8th PBA Commissioner and in his stint as the commissioner he established the PBA D-League and he established the said league to help make a more organized playing fround for Filipino players, His name is Angelico T. Salud. He is popularly known as Chito Salud. He is a lawyer who finished his Bachelors of Law degree from the UP Law School.\nChito Salud is the son of the Former PBA Commissioner Rudy Salud. He has it in his genes to be the next PBA Commissioner. He was eventually named as the PBA commissioner Last August 2010. He replaced commissioner Sonny Barrios. He was born on June 17, 19**. I don't want to divulge his exact age. It is his birthday today. Let's all greet him Happy Birthday and More Power!\nI made this article because I'd like to make the PBA fans know the story of his life and because I also believe that he will be a legendary PBA commissioner in the near future.\nTo give you more idea on what's the story of our current PBA commissioner, here's an article from Manila Bulletin. This is also a form of tribute to our Commissioner.\nGrateful family returns a favor\nBy TITO TALAO\nHE BEARS the unmistakable imprint of his father\u2019s infectious smile and the glint in his eyes. And he essays the subtle, sudden, ever shifting moves of his illustrious sire when engaging in conversation, stressing a point or recalling a funny incident.\nBut it\u2019s the voice \u2014 rich, deep and warm, and quick burst of laughter \u2014 hearty, resonant and loud, which gives him away.\nThirty-two years after founding PBA commissioner Leo Prieto brought with him to serve as his counsel a lawyer named Rodrigo Salud, another legal eagle bearing the same name and functioning in much the same capacity is holding office at the heart of professional sports in the country.\nAnd filling the small, bare, cream-painted room he occupies with ringing laughter riding the crest of a booming voice.\nAngelico \u2018Chito\u2019 Salud, 45, is picking up where his father has left off, from helping PBA officer-in-charge Sonny Barrios chart the course of the league \u2014 in the transition period between the 6th and 7th commissioner \u2014 to welcoming unscheduled visitors like long lost friends.\n\"Six months. That\u2019s what Tito Sonny (Barrios) said when he asked me to help him if ever he would get named OIC,\" Salud says. \"So I\u2019m here to help him.\"\nAt no cost to the league.\n\"Pareho lang naman kami ni Tito Sonny,\" he says, flashing a dimpled smile.\nSalud, who finished law school at University of the Philippines, says he felt compelled to say yes to Barrios out of gratitude to the PBA\n.\"It\u2019s not the money but the respect my family got because of the PBA,\" he says. \"And the amount of goodwill it generated for us from people we don\u2019t even know.\"\nThe elder Salud, a man of charismatic leadership and persuasive charm, served as commissioner from 1988 to 1991.\nHe turned over the PBA reins to former Shell president Rey Marquez but continued to wield a fair amount of influence in the legal, political, corporate and sporting world up until his semi-retirement after suffering a heart attack in 2000.\nAttorney Chito, the eldest of three boys and four girls, says he was able to obtain from his father his blessing to take on the consultancy post, but not through his influence.\n\"My father told me that he won\u2019t make or take any calls to help me get the job. That I had to get it on my own. In fairness, he really didn\u2019t.\"\nThe younger Salud was offered the directorship of the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas early this year but turned it down.\n\"I had too much on my plate when the SBP offer came,\" he says. \"I was working in government back then, but I resigned to take over the projects of my father when he had a stroke last year. I was also taking on tax cases.\"\nBarrios\u2019 invitation came at the perfect time.\n\"I was free from much of my earlier commitments,\" says the father of four boys, all Ateneo students like him.\nThe possibility of returning to the PBA also stirred up something nostalgic in him, a long ago summer that he had cherished since he was 12 and in grade school.\n\"I was one of the PBA\u2019s first ball boys,\" he laughs at the disclosure. Back in 1975, the late Pepito Castro, Prieto\u2019s chief operations man, saw him watching games with his father and asked him if he wanted a summer job.\n\"I jumped at the chance and became a ball boy! They gave me an I.D. and I went to every game that summer,\" Salud says.\nThe family driver would deliver him to the game venue \u2014 the Araneta Coliseum, Rizal Memorial or Ateneo \u2014 and then pick him at the end of the second game.\n\"They paid me R30 per game and R60 for the two games! Can you imagine how much that was back then?\" he says, adding \"Come to think of it, I actually saw the development of the PBA.\nChito Salud has come a long way since those ball boy days.\nWhereas before when he could only watch from up close the growth of the league from infancy, wiping leather balls and bouncing them over to the referees, he now has a hand in putting the finishing touches to a full-grown sport spectacle which his father had helped nurture with great care.\n\"Yes, I will be here everyday. That is my commitment to tito Sonny,\" says Salud, taking a break from reviewing a thick wad of papers covering the policies and procedures of officiating in the PBA.\n\"And right now, I\u2019m reviewing the referees\u2019 performances with the end view of having officiating that is fair, honest, competent and consistent.\"\nThere was no laughter in his statement. No glint in his eye. No sudden body movements.\nYet the commitment in his voice, and the promise behind his words, resonate with familiarity as though they were spoken decades ago, and even unto now, by a man who cared with a passion for the league and who kept its flames burning in his heart, and that of his eldest child, for the last 32 years.\nLabels: commissioner chito salud how old, deputy commissioner chito salud\nDaniyel Redclif said...\nthanks for sharing the stuff here with us.i liked it very much as i found it really informative here.keep it up.i wish you all the best.Tax Lien.",

When the Australian Ballet's founder Peggy van Praagh invited him to come and work for her new company's first-ever season in 1962, he went out from Britain on a three-month contract. But he stayed for good, as ballet master and (from 1972) as associate director, to become, with van Praagh, one of the pioneers of a national company that has since become internationally respected.\nPost subject: Re: Ray Powell\nThanks for posting this, Joanne. I will move it to Ballet per our current policy on obituaries.\nDancer and ballet master who helped to found the Australian Ballet and stayed there for 40 years\nIF HIS career had concluded as it began, dancing with the Royal Ballet, Ray Powell would have been remembered for his strong personality and vivid expressiveness in character roles. But after 20 successful years in London, he made a sudden switch, moving to Australia to help to found a national ballet and became, in the words of its present director, David McAllister, the backbone of the company.\nRay Powell was born in Hitchin with no family connections to the theatre. He was expected to follow his father into tailoring but showed no aptitude for that.",

        "raw_content": "Blood Pressure : 17 Million U.S. Adults May Have Tough-to-Spot High Blood Pressure\nTHURSDAY, Jan. 19, 2017 (HealthDay News) -- You get your blood pressure checked at your doctor's office, and it reads in the normal range. You're fine, right?\nWell, maybe not. A new study suggests that 17 million American adults may have what doctors call \"masked\" hypertension -- blood pressure that tends to be higher outside of the medical clinic environment.\n\"It can manifest itself as a normal physician's office blood pressure and elevated home blood pressure,\" explained Dr. Kevin Marzo, a heart specialist who reviewed the findings.\nThe best way to spot masked hypertension is \"either with self-monitoring or an ambulatory [wearable] blood pressure monitor that a physician has a patient wear for 24 hours,\" said Marzo. He's chief of cardiology at Winthrop-University Hospital in Mineola, N.Y.\nBut how common is the condition? To find out, a team led by Dr. Joseph Schwartz of Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, N.Y., analyzed its own database as well as data from a national U.S. government survey on nutrition and health.\nBased on the analysis, the researchers estimated that just over 12 percent of Americans over the age of 21 have masked hypertension. That translates into about one in every eight people -- or 17.1 million Americans, Schwartz's team said.\nMasked hypertension was typically more common among males than females. Having diabetes raised the odds for the condition, and so did advancing age, the research showed.\nSchwartz's team noted that masked hypertension can pose real dangers, raising a person's risk for heart disease, organ damage and early death.\nDr. Rajiv Jauhar is chief of cardiology at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, N.Y. He called the study \"important,\" because it shows the extent of masked hypertension in the population.\nIn general, Jauhar said, \"we are not adequately treating or educating these patients to the risks of hypertension. They are not being treated with the right drugs or taught about the importance of a low-salt diet.\"\nThe findings were published Jan. 18 in the American Journal of Epidemiology.",

        "raw_content": "We experience major challenges in both periods of peak, as well as off-peak activity. During periods of high activity, we see a significant amount of cargo that needs to be delivered at the same time. This requires the mobilization of a large number of trucks, many of which may not be available. In some cases this situation forces us to negotiate with the client to deliver the goods partially in light of our constraints. As a result, this can have a detrimental effect on the levels of key performance indicators. Moreover, in the case of containerized cargo, it can potentially generate additional costs, i.e. detention costs, for our customer since the owner of the container typically provides a grace period for usage after which additional days are penalized and billed. During off-peak periods when the volume of shipments are greatly reduced, our trucks are immobilized, which necessitates costly maintenance after the period of disuse. The same problem arises in our warehouses, too.\nIn my opinion, the solution would be the establishment of a system where all the players involved in transport and logistics can share information in real-time, so that every company\u2019s needs can be broadcast and known to all other company\u2019s with the potential to satisfy those needs.\nDo your partners use new technologies as part of their logistics activities?\nGenerally, I would say that we limit ourselves to online messaging services for communication purposes, as well as some internal business management software.\nDo you think that new technologies are sufficiently used in the transport and logistics sphere in Africa?\nNo, we still have a lot of room for improvement to make. I think the major reasons for the current situation are the lack of awareness about the existence of new technologies and the lack of interest. Many companies still rely on traditional methods in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire and do not understand the value of using new technologies to improve productivity and facilitate their work. There is a real need for instruction as to the advantages and benefits that new technologies can bring to these companies.\nOn Bifasor, we would like to be able to find carriers and shippers with whom we could work. Additionally, we would like to be able to find certified garages and mechanics in Ivory Coast and throughout West Africa, which would allow us to easily find the right people to repair our trucks that break down while on their routes. This would spare us the expense of having to transport our technicians to the place where they have broken down and would prevent us from being forced to tow the trucks back to headquarters. As you know, sending out our personnel and towing broken equipment can be very expensive operations.We need in particular mecanics who can deal with specific brands such as Daf, Man, Renault and JMC.",

        "raw_content": "Song of the Day: Knock Knock - Band of Horses\nIt is that time of year again. The FHR was last Sunday. This one one of the reasons I love my bike club. This year was especially good because it didn't rain. It wasn't sunny exactly, but no rain is good. I also perfected my calorie intake a bit. Last year I ran out of energy towards the end. This year, that wasn't a problem. My solution? Donuts.\nThe race itself didn't have that much drama to it. I rode pretty well, except for dropping my chain. There were a number of people who would draft off of me, but I didn't find myself behind anyone else almost the whole race. The one time I did get stuck behind a clot of Cascade riders I had to pass them again once the line of guys hit a hill.\nOne change this year was the vodka stop had become a whiskey stop. It is still a performance reducing drug. I only wanted a little bit, so I pulled the cup away before Scott had finished filling it. He was kind enough to throw the rest at me any way. Thanks Scott!\nAfter the whiskey (yuck), Baker Hill didn't seem that bad. I wasn't amazingly fast, but I wasn't running out of energy. From there it was just a rush to the finish. I was a little tired coming up the last couple of hills. I could still push myself a bit to get up them. I passed one rider on the last hill. I ended up coming in 6th, which I thought was pretty good all considered. (We had about 120 riders all told.) Then again, that is the unofficial number. I asked Derrick and he said \"You weren't top three, so I stopped counting.\"\nI also heard the police had been by to say no alcohol was allowed. The keg of beer had to remain in the back of the truck. Not that I minded, I don't drink beer. Even worse though the whiskey stop had been shut down by the police not long after I had been through. While in retrospect I can understand that announcing free liquor with a megaphone may not have been a good or even legal idea, it was all part of the tomfoolery that makes the race so fun. Not vomiting while going up the biggest hill of the race is part of the challenge. I realize this is not a solid legal defense, but there is a difference between illegal and doing harm. Really the worst harm to come from this was to my sense of taste. I hope we can work something out for next year because I would hate to loose the tradition.\nThanks to Derrick and all the sponsors for putting this on. I had a great time, and I look forward to next year.\nI received the shifter for my commuter bike back on Friday. I guess they just sent me a whole new one instead of a refurbished copy. No complaints from me on that. Thanks Shimano.\nAfter work on Friday I headed over to Back Alley Bike Repair. They were having a Derrick from Point83 had arranged for \"wrench party\" there. That was great. I got my new shifter installed. That was the easy part actually. I also got my cable housing replaced. I probably should have done that a while ago. The inner sheath that holds the cable was coming out. I got those changed out and re-wrapped my bars. Now it shifts like a dream.\nThis is good because I hit up the Up & Down alley cat on Saturday. It wasn't a long race, but fun. The haul up Yestler was a bear. I saw a number of the fixed gear riders just walking their bikes up it. Frankly, I wasn't that much faster even in my lowest gear. At one of the other stops we had to ride off a stone bench. It was only a foot and half off the ground. I got up there, rode off and over the handle bars. There wasn't enough space to build up any speed. I heard later that only a couple of the riders actually landed that jump. The lame thing was that my shifting was all messed up after that. I just got it working! At least I made it through the rest of the race okay. Came in 8th place, which was about the middle of the pack. In all it was about 10 miles in less than an hour. Though when I got home I spent another hour fiddling with my shifting. I did get that tuned up again, no harm done.\nGood way to start the weekend.\nThis week the democrats in the Washington State house released a new transportation plan. In it, the proposed bill would put a $25 dollar tax on bike over $500 dollars. It is a bad idea on so many levels I am not really sure where to begin.\nLet start with the idea of the tax being a way for cyclists to pay \"their fare share\". This is a stupid and dangerous notion. The roads are a public service available for all. This is just the same as the service provided by the police or the public school system. Making the link between tax payments and road usage only encourages the asinine idea that some people deserve to have more right over the roads because they pay more in taxes. Imagine not being able have all your kids go to public school because you don't live in an affluent zip code? Or the police not arrest your assailant because you didn't pay enough in sales taxes? Public services don't and have never worked that way. Roads are a public good that everyone can use, regardless of how much any specific user pays in taxes. The government needs to be out front in making sure that all road users understand this. Hiding behind a $25 fee is an abrogation of that responsibility.\nBeyond that, the way the fee is implemented is idiotic. Users like myself who build their own bikes would likely not have to pay anything. Someone who buys a decent downhill mountain bike however would have to pay this fee, even though that bike will never ride on public roads. It seems like this fee is designed to punish small bike shops. For a businesses that make vary narrow margins they can ill afford the fee or giving their customers one more reason to buy out of state, online, or not at all.\nWhat does this tax get for cyclists? According to the plan, nothing. Specifically \"0%\", really 0.6% (about $60 million out of the $10 billion plan) will be spent on improving cyclist and pedestrian infrastructure. The majority of the money will be spent on highway and freeways, which cyclists aren't allowed to use. Remember, this is the state transportation budget. Most of the cycling infrastructure comes from the city or local government budget.\nThere you have it. The new tax is likely to shut down small businesses, tell drivers they own the road, and do nothing for cyclists. This will bring in a whopping $1 million dollars in revenue. Most of which I imagine would be spent on administration costs for the new tax. Well done. Well done, indeed.\nBut I have a plan. Scrap the $25 fee and add a checkbox to the motor vehicle registration form. Have it say \"I would like my registration fee to go to bicycle improvements\". You see, most cyclists do own cars as well. I have to pay to register my van regardless of how much I use it. That said, I would much rather see money spent on making new bike lanes than on new freeways. If just 1% of the state would check that box the amount of money raised would be around $20 million dollars. That is twenty times what the bicycle fee would raise. If the point of the whole thing was to show that cyclists pay their taxes like everyone else, what better way. It would be yearly proof that people who own and pay for their cars would rather bike.\nFor the last few months the shifter on my commuter bike has been acting up. It was still under warranty so I thought I might as well send it back while I was gone in Singapore. It wasn't back by the time I got home though. I know I could have been riding the bike, but using a 48x11 single speed bike in Seattle isn't that much fun.\nFor the last three weeks I have been riding other things. For the first week I was riding Molly, my touring bike. Most of that bike has been through the trials of Africa. It has a lot of interesting mods and two very sturdy racks. These make it about a 40 pound bike. That is double what my commuter bike weighs. I hate to say it, but she really isn't built for speed. Beyond that I didn't have a long enough seat post for the bike. I couldn't use the saddle without my knees coming up to my ears. Commuting around was taking a lot longer, and not really as much fun.\nSweet Jump\nFortunately I was able to locate my Mzungu mountain bike after the first week. It does weight a third more than my commuter bike, but still almost half as much as the touring rig. I do find myself enjoying the smooth ride over the rough pavement though. The cracks and pot-holes I dodge on my commuter I can glide over on the fat tires. That has been much easier. Except for the wind, which we have had a lot of recently. Cutting through the wind with 3 inch tires is like cutting a watermelon with a baseball bat. It might be fun for Gallagher, but not very efficient. While I can't go fast on it, the bike does have other advantages. For instance, they put in a sweet jump on my route to work. It has been nice. Between the sunny days and the molasses smell on Harbor Island, things have been great.\nStill, my shifter arrived back yesterday. It has been a nice change to my regular routine, but I can't wait to get back on my normal bike. I will probably get it installed Friday night. That should be fun. I want it ready for this weekend. I have an alley cat race on Saturday and the FHR on Sunday. Should be a great weekend.\nI wanted to put in a couple of last notes about bicycles in Singapore. Sadly I never got to ride there, which does grind my gears a bit. There is always a next time, I guess. I wish I had known about the East Coast Park earlier. There is a great path along the ocean and they rent bikes for cheap all along the beach. So that is more of a note to any avid cyclists planning to travel to the region.\nThat said, what I really wanted to mention was the work bike culture in Singapore. I love the idea of a bicycle as an integral part of commerce. A way for everyone to get around. A way to transport goods to market. It appears that the Singapore used to be much more dependant on bicycles than it is now. There is this article from Copenhagenize. I also found two different forms of tricycle that I thought were pretty cool.\nThe first is the heavy duty cargo trike. I have seen this style before, just nothing so burly. It is as engineered for hauling heavy loads as a dual-suspension mountain bike is for going downhill. The wheels look more like they were made for a car or motorcycle. I imagine it would hold a couple hundred pounds. Then again, you would need some real legs to get that thing going. I also like the brake. That is the handle right below the seat. If you look carefully you will notice that pushing down on the handle pulls the brake pads into inner rim of the back tire. That is very much like the style of push-rod brakes.\nThe second one I wanted to mention is the tricycle rickshaw. At first I thought it wasn't that much more interesting than the rickshaws Seattle has. I was wrong. The side-car for the passenger is completely separate. So unlike the cargo bike above, it doesn't require a custom built bike frame. You simply bolt the side-car on in three places and you are ready to go. I love the ingenuity of the whole thing.\nSo, there you have it. A couple of interesting work bikes from my trip to Singapore. The bikes in the pictures come from museums. I did see examples of both out on the streets though. The use of work bikes is still alive in Singapore.",

We look forward to welcoming their team to Biohydromet 2012, including Gaudin Gold Medallist Phil Thompson.\nSecondly, you may have seen the recent news about the conference venue, the Falmouth Beach Hotel, which has been effectively destroyed by fire (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-17897467). It is a terrible blow to Falmouth, but it is hoped that it will be rebuilt in the future. However, clearly that is unlikely to happen before June.\nFortunately, Barry and co at MEI have scoured the surrounds and an alternative venue has been secured. The conference will now be held at the nearby Hotel St. Michael\u2019s (http://www.stmichaelshotel.co.uk/; http://g.co/maps/pfmgh). Clearly, if you were planning on staying at the Falmouth Beach Hotel, you will have to make alternative arrangements (http://www.min-eng.com/biohydromet12/acc.html). If you had already reserved accommodation at this hotel, it would be a good idea to contact Best Western (the hotel\u2019s owners) for more information. In any case, it would be prudent to search for an alternative ASAP as Falmouth is very busy at this time of year and one of its larger hotels no longer exists.\nThe conference will go on! Please check http://www.min-eng.com/biohydromet12/updates.htmlfor the latest updates.\nConference registrations are looking good. We have a fantastic range of presentations on many aspects of biohydrometallurgy, both fundamental and applied. More information can be found here (http://www.min-eng.com/biohydromet12/timetable.pdf).\nA reminder to all authors that they should register for the conference no later than 18th May. There are a number of papers waiting in reserve, and we are in the process of finalising the technical programme.\nI\u2019m looking forward to catching up with colleagues in this great field of work; both old friends and new.\nThis entry was posted in Biohydrometallurgy and tagged Biohydrometallurgy 2012, Conference, MEI.

The song comes off \"Louder Than Ever\" \u2014 a collection of new songs and re-recorded tracks from PRETTY MAIDS' past albums \u2014 which will be released on March 21 in Europe and March 25 in North America.\nAfter celebrating thier 30th anniversary as a band and the release of their latest monumental album, \"Motherland\", the Danish melodic hard rockers are serving the fans with an album which includes eight re-recorded classic songs from the 1995-2006 era, plus four brand new songs specially written for this record and a special bonus DVD including archive footage from the '80s, brand new interviews and plenty of cool material for the fans!\n\"There were two main reasons for us to do this album,\" explains singer Ronnie Atkins. \"First of all, we wanted to keep the ball in spin and release some kind of an 'in between' album before the next 'real' studio album. Then we were curious to hear how some of the older songs would sound like with the band lineup we have today and in the hands of our current producer, Jacob Hansen. The original idea was actually to do a mix of both re-recorded, re-mixed, covers and new songs, but in the end decided to cut it down to what it is. We deliberately chose not to re-record some of the Eighties and early Nineties material, since it's some kind of 'sacred,' both to ourselves as well as the fans.\"\nThe release of \"Louder Than Ever\" will be followed up by a three-to-four-week tour in Europe in May 2014. In addition, the band will appear at several festivals during the summer.\n\"Louder Than Ever\" track listing:\n01. Deranged (new song)\n03. Psycho Time Bomb Planet Earth\n04. My Soul To Take (new song)\n05. He Who Never Lived\n06. Virtual Brutality\n07. Tortured Spirit\n08. With These Eyes\n09. Nuclear Boomerang (new song)\n10. Snakes In Eden\n11. Wake Up To The Real World\n12. A Heart Without A Home (new song)\n* A Retrospective of the \"Motherland\" 2013 world tour\n* Includes archive footage from early stages of the band's career, interviews, backstage, studio footage and the usual freakiness.\nPRETTY MAIDS is:\nRonnie Atkins: Vocals\nKen Hammer: Guitar\nRene Shades: Bass\nAllan Tchicaja: Drums\nMorten Sandager: Keyboards\nTags: pretty maids",

        "raw_content": "Couples who have signed a civil partnership are treated the same as a married couple by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).\nIf you are considering a civil partnership talk to your financial adviser. On the whole, the treatment of the couple within a civil partnership will be more advantageous than that of two single people, but even so there are issues to consider.\nIn general, if you read or hear about any financial issue that affects married couples, or couples getting married, then it probably applies to you as a couple in a civil partnership.\nKey areas are:\nTreated as a married couple.\nCivil partners can pass assets between partners without charge (CGT is incurred when the asset is eventually sold to a third party, with the gain based on the original acquisition cost).\nMarried couples are only allowed one principal private residence that can be sold for a tax free gain. If you are considering a civil partnership and each of you currently owns your own home, talk to us. Planning could save you a tax if you sell one of these homes.\nCivil partners will be able to inherit from each other without incurring inheritance tax.\nCivil partners will be treated as spouses, ex-civil partners as ex-spouses etc. with regard to the taxation of pensions. However this is a classic case of careful wording where what is NOT said is probably more important.\nWhat civil partners normally want is to be treated identically to married couples for the purposes of pension scheme benefits. You should consult your pension scheme administrator and find out what the scheme's policy is.\nBusiness issues and anti-avoidance\nThere is a range of rules that apply to married couples to prevent abuse of the tax system, and these will also apply to civil partners.\nMost people will not be affected in practice, (because they do not have the kind of financial affairs that give rise to avoidance issues), but if you are a couple considering a civil partnership and you are in business together, or engage in financial deals together, then your civil partner might well become deemed a 'controlling director', or 'associated person' for the purposes of determining business control and transaction validity.\nIn particular any requirement for a transaction to be 'arm's length' cannot normally be met by a spouse, and so would not normally be met by a civil partner.\nCertain State benefits, although claimed by one person, take the circumstances of the couple into account. If either of you is in receipt of benefits, you should establish what would happen to these benefits if you entered into a civil partnership.",

Read more...\nMore About Prostate Cancer by George Sayell; Andy Watt\nGeorge Sayell was educated at a Grammar School, and then took a Student Apprenticeship in Mechanical Engineering. Most of his career was spent in the automotive industry. He took early retirement aged 61, and seven years later following regular tests was diagnosed with early prostate cancer and treated by Radical Prostatectomy (surgical removal of the gland). Following this treatment the majority of patients make a full recovery within two years. The writer though was less fortunate in suffering from side effects to an extreme degree, the 'worst case scenario', and as a result required further treatment. In his humorous poetic style he gives a brief introduction to urology and his life before cancer followed by an account of his experience of being diagnosed with the cancer, undergoing the treatments, and how he dealt with the ensuing problems. He remains fit and active with varied interests including model engineering, World War One, industrial archaeology, weaving, and gliding. He lives with his wife in the Midlands. They have two daughters, four grandchildren, and one great-grandson. Andy Watt is an illustrator whose work can be seen in the UK and overseas press, in books and in advertising campaigns.

        "raw_content": "In the eye, I swear to God, right in the fucking eye.\nWith a butter scoop?\nWith a butter scoop, a butter scoop half-covered with margarine, right in his fucking eye. And he\u2019s screaming and shit, he\u2019s screaming like a little girl. Which you might think is a kind of pussy kind of reaction for a full-grown man, right, screaming like that? But really, his eye, I mean the part of it that\u2019s not mashed into his socket is, like, it\u2019s hanging out of the socket, like some little shred of a jellyfish dripping down his cheek. It was pretty unnerving to look at, actually. It was pretty fucking disgusting.\nAnd the guy who did it?\nYeah \u2013 Kevin. Kevin \u2026 I don't know his last name. He\u2019s a waiter, usually works the dinner shifts, so I don\u2019t know him that well. I\u2019m a brunch guy, myself, you know? Brunches, lunches, all the daytime stuff so I can play with my band at night. That's my thing: I\u2019m a drummer. That\u2019s what my life is really about. This foodservice shit, that\u2019s just the day job.\nSo Kevin was \u2026\nHe was really pissed. I mean, he was already on edge to begin with, you know? He\u2019s got a lot of heavy shit going on \u2013 he was telling me about it in the prep room. I was standing there, cutting limes, and he was standing there, scooping butters, and he was just kind of spilling his guts, you know?\nHe was scooping butter?\nWell, it\u2019s margarine, really, but everybody calls it butter. It\u2019s just easier, you know? Butter, margarine, whatever. It\u2019s no big secret or anything, everybody knows it\u2019s margarine. Just \u2013 save yourself some syllables, I guess.\nSo he \u2013 Kevin \u2013 was upset?\nHis ex is hitting him with a lawsuit, this child custody thing. He\u2019s got a kid, a son \u2013 I forget his name \u2013 and he and his ex had this agreement about custody. Nothing legal, they\u2019d worked it out themselves, everything\u2019d been cool for years, right? The kid\u2019s like nine, ten, spends time with Kevin, spends time with the ex, everything works out. But now she\u2019s remarried, and the new husband, he\u2019s got this job offer in Seattle. Fucking Seattle, right?\nAnd she wants to take the kid.\nExactly. She wants to take the kid. And Kevin is \u2013 well, you can imagine, right? He\u2019s pissed. He\u2019s beyond pissed. His ex wants to take his fucking pride and joy, whisk him out of the state and move to Seattle. And so he and the ex, well, they get into it, you know? Big ugly scene outside the kid\u2019s new house. Kevin\u2019s screaming, the ex is screaming, the new husband\u2019s standing there in the doorway not knowing what the fuck to do. The kid is God knows where, probably playing Nintendo in the living room, not hearing a goddam thing, right? But it was ugly, it was a real big mess. And so now they\u2019re going to court.\nThey\u2019re going to court?\nTen years of no trouble, and now they\u2019re going to court. Lawyers all over the place, money out the wazoo, more bullshit than any five people can deal with. And Kevin\u2019s barely hanging on, you know, he\u2019s barely got a grip on his sanity lately. He\u2019s dealing with the lawyers, he\u2019s shelling out the bucks, he\u2019s worried that his ex is gonna get sole custody and he won't be able to see his son except maybe once a year or whatever. And he loves that kid, right? That kid is his fucking reason for living, sometimes. And so he\u2019s dealing with all that shit, besides the usual crap that everybody deals with, and then he\u2019s gotta come in and wait tables? You think that doesn\u2019t make for a getting-near-the-breaking-point situation?\nIt sounds like \u2026 a lot to deal with.\nYou bet your ass it\u2019s a lot to deal with. And then he\u2019s gotta come in and deal with the customers? With the \u201cOh, waiter, my enchilada\u2019s got the wrong sauce,\u201d when they know goddam well they ordered that same fucking sauce? Or they\u2019ve got, like, an entire herd of babies with them, tearing up your condiments, throwing Cheerios and shit, bunch of fucking cribcrawlers screaming like Rhesus monkeys all over the place? Believe me, it\u2019s enough to push anyone over the edge. And then Dale comes in with his wise-ass bullshit, and it\u2019s no wonder Kevin lost it.\nDale? That\u2019s the guy who got, uh \u2013\nYeah, that\u2019s him. Dale. Biggest pain in the ass this place ever hired. He\u2019s a college grad, has some degree in English, thinks he\u2019s better than everybody else. Thinks he\u2019s fucking smarter than God.\nAnd what happened with Dale?\nWell, we\u2019re back there in the prep room, right? Doing opening sidework, like I said. I\u2019m cutting limes, Kevin\u2019s scooping butters, we\u2019ve gotta take care of this shit before we go on the floor. There\u2019s already two waiters out there, taking tables, but it\u2019s brunch and things are starting to hop, so we\u2019ve gotta get out there as soon as we can. So I\u2019m slicing and Kevin\u2019s scooping and he\u2019s telling me all about this custody thing. And Dale walks up.\nHe\u2019s not taking tables?\nOh, he\u2019s taking tables, alright. He\u2019s taking all his tables and probably snaking the counter, too. You can bet your ass he\u2019s grabbing everything he can get his hands on. But this is Dale, right? Dale\u2019s never too busy to stop and give somebody shit.\nSo he comes into the prep room, walks over to Kevin. He walks over like he\u2019s king of the fucking universe, you know, like he owns the goddam place instead of just being shift supervisor on one of his other shifts. He looks at the bucket of butter and the already scooped butters in their little souffl\u00e9 cups, kind of gives the whole scene the hairy eyeball. Then he looks at Kevin and says, \u201cHey.\u201d He says, \u201cHey, man, what\u2019s up with the butter? Are you scooping it \u2013 or are you establishing some kind of deep relationship with it?\u201d\nImplying?\nImplying \u2013 besides implying that maybe Kevin was, like, fucking the butter? \u2013 implying that Kevin was taking longer than usual to finish his sidework. Which he was, yeah, but so what? Because you know Dale doesn\u2019t really give a shit whether Kevin\u2019s on the floor or not, he\u2019s just looking to bust somebody\u2019s chops. And it wasn\u2019t even Kevin\u2019s fault, anyway. It wasn\u2019t even that he was going slow because he was telling me about all this custody shit, you know? Like a guy can\u2019t talk and scoop butters at the same time? No, it was because of the butter scoop itself, man. Which is kind of weird. Which is definitely ironic. Because if it had been a different butter scoop, not only wouldn\u2019t it have been the straw that broke the camel\u2019s back, it wouldn\u2019t have wound up in Dale\u2019s eye socket.\nIt was the wrong size butter scoop.\nThe wrong size?\nSee, there\u2019s two sizes of butter scoops. There\u2019s the big one that we use for scooping butters, and there\u2019s the little one that the cooks use for \u2026 well, I don\u2019t know what the fuck they use it for, okay? But there\u2019s two of them, and they\u2019re two different sizes. And we use the big one because it\u2019s faster, because it scoops out a scoop of butter that\u2019s exactly the right size to fill a souffl\u00e9 cup. Whereas the little one is a pain in the ass. Whereas, with the little one, you have to scoop at least twice, maybe three times, to fill a single souffl\u00e9 cup. And your sidework, if you\u2019re doing butters, you\u2019re filling one hell of a lot of souffl\u00e9 cups. Dozens of the fucking things. You have to fill up three whole trays of them, and each tray has to have two tiers, two layers of butters. It\u2019s bad enough having to take care of that much shit before going on the floor, without having to scoop each fucking cup three times because you\u2019re using the little scoop.\nAnd Kevin \u2013\nKevin couldn\u2019t find the big scoop. He looked all over the kitchen, in the dish area, couldn\u2019t find the damned thing. The bus carts, everywhere. No scoop. No fucking scoop. It happens, you know? Who knows where the hell it goes? And then the next time you work a shift, there it is. Like it\u2019s magic or something. The Great Re-Appearing Butter Scoop, you know? Anyway, Kevin couldn\u2019t find it. So he gets the little butter scoop, which is a major pain in the ass, and he starts scooping with that. And he\u2019s scooping away, and he\u2019s telling me about the custody thing, and I can tell that he\u2019s under a great deal of stress.\nSo Dale\u2019s comment \u2026\nWas the last fucking straw. Except, it wouldn\u2019t have been the last straw if Kevin wasn\u2019t already so close to the edge from having to use the little butter scoop. I\u2019m serious: I think that\u2019s what did it. I think that extra scooping made all the difference in the world. And what\u2019s weird is that, if he\u2019d been using the big scoop, even if he\u2019d still snapped and gone off like that? Dale wouldn\u2019t be missing an eye, man. Dale wouldn\u2019t be missing an eye and Kevin wouldn\u2019t be fucking going to jail, now, probably, with assault charges against him on top of everything else.\nBecause the big scoop is too big, man. That\u2019s why. Because the little scoop that probably brought everything to a head? It\u2019s also the only scoop that's small enough to fit into your eye socket. I mean, the big one, yeah, you\u2019d probably have a black eye or something if somebody whacked you with it, it\u2019d probably fuck you up around the eye. But the little one, man, it\u2019s like the perfect size for sticking right into somebody\u2019s eye. And it\u2019s just ironic \u2013 well, I think it\u2019s ironic \u2013 that the instrument of assault was also pretty much the reason for the assault. On some level, anyway right? Because if you get a whole bunch of shit piling up like that? You get a whole bunch of stress going on, and you keep adding to it? Eventually all it\u2019s gonna take is something like the wrong size butter scoop to set a guy off. You know? And then \u2026\nAnd then, well, mayhem ensues.\nMayhem ensues?",

        "raw_content": "Winning An Arena Bowl: Philadelphia's Soul Purpose\nDid you see that title? How good am I with puns? I have no idea how, but I've got to have some kind of superior talent to pull off a pun like that. Anyway, before my ego gets any bigger, I feel like we are overdue for a Philadelphia Soul article. The season kicks off next Saturday at 9, in a 2013 Arena Bowl rematch against the defending champion Arizona Rattlers. After defeating us in the last two Arena Bowls, it will be a must win for the Soul, in terms of mental conditioning and in terms of revenge.\nWhen I say it's a must win game, obviously it's not a must win game in terms of making the playoffs or anything. But Arizona has defeated us in the last two Arena Bowls and losing to them again to start the season could do a lot of mental damage to the Soul. No amount of my zany puns could heal their psyche then. So starting off the season with a win against the defending champions could be a huge confidence booster for this squad. Remember, the game is 90% mental, 50% physical, and 30% emotional. If the Soul can maximize their potential and be successful on all 170% of the game, then there should be no reason why another Arena Bowl trip should be out of the question. I bet you're wondering \"Why 170%? The math seems just a bit off there Dan.\" Hey, I don't make the rules. I just think them up, write them down, and enforce them.\nA few weeks ago, I wrote about how a few of the Soul's most featured players were placed on league suspension. However, league suspension is basically an inactive list for players seeking employment elsewhere, whether that be in a different league or in a different occupational field. I assumed that most, if not all of them, should be back for the start of the season. All five of the players I mentioned are off league suspension and back on the current roster, including the AFL all-time leading rusher, fullback Derrick Ross. Of course I was right, this is the incredibly talented Dan Goggin we're talking about here.\nNow, for opening night, the Soul will feature two time Arena Bowl appearing quarterback Dan Raudabaugh, all-time leading rusher Derrick Ross, stud receiver Tiger Jones (who led the league in receiving yards last seaosn), 1st team all Arena center Brennen Carvalho, and talented defensive backs Rayshaun Kizer and LaRico Stevenson. That is an incredibly gifted class of players, and that's before the inevitable couple of star players emerge from the roster this year. The Philadelphia Soul will have an absolutely stacked roster this season. Hopefully this is the year they put it all together and bring home their second Arena Bowl trophy.\nI for one await the parade down Broad Street or Kensington Avenue. YMMV.",

        "raw_content": "Saskatchewan woman deported to Pakistan For Adultery Verdict\nA Saskatchewan woman accused of adultery in her home country has been deported to her native Pakistan, where she fears her life could be in danger.\nJamila Bibi broke down in loud sobs at the Saskatoon airport Tuesday as her journey out of the country began.\nHer supporters had been working to stop her deportation, saying the woman in her early 60s could be stoned to death once she returns to Pakistan.\nBibi was arrested and detained last Wednesday during a \u201cpre-removal interview,\u201d according to federal court documents. After being informed of the decision to deport her, the documents said Bibi repeatedly asked the officers for help, saying her life would be in danger in Pakistan.\nShe then became \u201chysterical\u201d and began hitting herself in the head and chest, the officers said.\n\u201cI haven\u2019t done anything wrong, not stolen anything, I worked and now they are doing this,\u201d one officer is quotes Bibi as saying in the documents.\n\u201cI can kill myself now,\u201d she said, and was then arrested for \u201cher safety and the officers.\u201d\nAfter being handcuffed, Bibi\u2019s bank card was taken from her and given to the friend who accompanied her to the interview. Bibi was left with $184.25 in cash.\nKicked out of Canada\nBibi openly wept as she said her goodbyes early Tuesday morning before being placed on a flight from Saskatoon to Toronto.\nAfter a layover in Toronto, Bibi was flown out to Pakistan in the afternoon. Her supporters had been hoping for a last-minute intervention from Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney to halt the deportation.\nBibi's lawyer, Bashir Khan, says his client fled to Canada in 2007 after she was falsely accused of adultery. He said the case stems from a land dispute in which she was awarded property over her husband\u2019s family, who then made the accusations as a way of getting back at her.\nShe came to Canada after being let out of jail on bail.\nKhan said the Canadian government has decided Bibi can move elsewhere in Pakistan, despite also acknowledging that she is at risk from both individuals and state authorities in the country.\n\u201cExcept that makes no sense to me because the criminal charge is outstanding and she\u2019s a target of honour killing,\u201d Khan told CTV News Channel. \u201cShe will be. She\u2019s received threats already.\u201d\nA deportation was originally ordered for Bibi in 2011, after her bid to secure refugee status was rejected.\nLabels: Saskatchewan, Scandal, SOS, Verdict",

        "raw_content": "Alberta | Low oil price means $500M budget deficit\nAlberta Premier Jim Prentice gives a state-of-the-province address in Edmonton, Alberta on December 9, 2014. Alberta Premier Jim Prentice says oil prices have plunged so far so fast that this year's projected budget surplus will now be a $500-million deficit. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jason Franso\nDean Bennett The Canadian PressAlberta Premier Jim Prentice says oil prices have plunged so far so fast that this year\u2019s projected budget surplus will now be a $500-million deficit.\nAnd he says while his advisers expect oil to rebound slowly over the coming years, the budget may remain in deficit until 2018.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the most serious fiscal circumstance we\u2019ve seen in a generation in this province,\u201d Prentice said in an interview Thursday.\n\u201cThings have turned so dramatically that we\u2019ve gone from a $1.5-billion surplus in November to what looks like a $500-million deficit based on today\u2019s projections.\n\u201cAnd there\u2019s actually precious little we can do about that. We\u2019ve been belt-tightening in government for the last quarter.\u201d\nOil prices, the lifeblood of Alberta\u2019s economy, have been in free fall since last summer, tumbling from US$100 a barrel to below US$50 a barrel this week.\n\u201cIt\u2019s like landing a 747 and you\u2019re coming in on the runway. We\u2019re in the last two months of the fiscal year. You can\u2019t either increase your revenue or decrease your expenses in any meaningful way,\u201d said Prentice.\nThe province predicted a barrel of West Texas Intermediate would average $92 a barrel this fiscal year ending March 31. That was revised to almost $89 in November as prices fell.\nEach $1 drop in the average price over the course of a year costs the province $215 million.\nPrentice said that in next year\u2019s budget the plan right now is to budget for oil at $65 a barrel, but he said that would still mean a $6.7-billion drop in projected resource revenue.\nHe said the forecast average price for the 2016-17 year will be $75 a barrel, which would still leave a $4.9 billion deficit.\n\u201cThe third year we should start to return to a balanced budget,\u201d he said.\nThe problem, he added, will be if oil prices remain below the $50 a barrel mark for the long-term.\n\u201cIf oil prices persist at sub-$50 per barrel, we essentially have no oil revenue, and it opens up a revenue hole in Alberta\u2019s finances that approaches $10 billion,\u201d he said.\nThe premier said they are now looking at a combination of three options: reducing expenditures, increasing revenue, and dipping into the $5-billion contingency fund.\nHe said they\u2019ll use the contingency fund to cover off this year\u2019s deficit but otherwise everything is on the table.\nPrentice declined to be more specific on the types of cuts or revenue generation plans being considered.\nIn past weeks, he has said he won\u2019t impose a sales tax but has refused to rule out hiking corporate or income taxes or making changes to the tax structure.\nHe has also said the province needs more fundamental economic changes so that day-to-day spending is not hostage to swings in oil prices.\nThis year\u2019s budget also forecasts the debt for capital projects to reach more than $11 billion.\nPrentice said the latest numbers were crunched with the aid of an ad hoc team of cabinet ministers struck before the Christmas break.\nThe committee, along with Prentice, is comprised of: Finance Minister Robin Campbell, Health Minister Stephen Mandel, Municipal Affairs Minister Diana McQueen, Energy Minister Frank Oberle, Infrastructure Minister Manmeet Bhullar, and Jobs Minister Ric McIver.\nLabels: Alarming, Alberta, Budget, Canada, Debt, Oil",

        "raw_content": "Do You Know Enough About Child Support?\nBy Nadia Rumore\nAn obligation to pay child support automatically arises once parents are residing in different homes. The monies paid by one parent to the other is intended to assist with the child(ren)'s care and maintenance. Child support is not a right of the parent, but is instead a right of the child.\nThe Child Support Guidelines under both the Divorce Act and The Family Maintenance Act govern the amount of child support that is payable. The base amount of child support is usually determined by the gross income of the payor when a child lives with one parent primarily, but different time-sharing regimes can suggest a different formula for calculating support.\nThe Guidelines also allow for the sharing of some additional expenses over and above the base amount to be paid. Some of these additional expenses include costs related to childcare, medical check-ups and procedures, and extracurricular activities of the child.\nChild support does not necessarily end at the age of 18 for the child. Support may continue in several circumstances, the most common of which relates to the child attending post-secondary education. The entitlement and amount of child support to be paid after the age of 18 rests on many factors.\nThe law on child support is continuously evolving, and it is important for people to understand their rights and/or obligations in respect of this area of law.\nTags family lawyers winnipeg child support",

Fraternity members have a higher graduation rate than non-members and when they do graduate they are part of a network that for years has aided individuals in finding employment and making new friends as they transition from college life. Membership also requires community service which we believe prepares students to be good citizens and good neighbors.\nHaving been founded in 1975, Lambda Theta Phi is a relatively new fraternity, but many of us are fathers. Many of us are encouraging our children to consider joining a fraternity or sorority if they have an interest. We want a safe and rewarding college experience for our children, and we want it for your children also. Lambda Theta Phi is a \u201cfamily\u201d and we support one another. As a Latin fraternity we honor the traditions of our Latin heritage and respect those of other cultures. There is a place for your children and your family in the Lambda Theta Phi family.\nGreeks graduate colleges and universities at a rate of nearly 20% higher than non-Greeks.\nSeventy-six percent (76%) of our nation\u2019s senators, 71 percent of the men listed in Who\u2019s Who in America, and 85 percent of the Fortune 500 executives hold fraternity membership.\nGreek members overwhelmingly contribute a higher proportion of donations to their university alumni associations.\nFraternity membership is at an all-time high of over 400,000 collegiate men nationwide\nAll but two U.S. Presidents since 1825 have been Greek.\nA National Conference report shows a high percentage of the 4,000 NIC fraternity chapters are above the All-Men\u2019s scholastic average on their respective campuses.\nA U.S. Government study shows that over 70% of all those who join a fraternity/sorority graduate, while under 50% of all non-fraternity/sorority persons graduate.\nOver 85% of the student leaders on some 730 campuses are involved in the Greek community.\nFraternities exist as a proven support network for anyone on the college campus.

The event, which is organised by voluntary sector champions NCVO, aims to showcase the various volunteering roles available for the public to get involved with and provide specific taster sessions as well as recruit new faces.\nPeterborough Cadets supporting Race for Life\nSir Graham set up the first cadet scheme last year in partnership with the Thomas Deacon Academy in Peterborough to inspire young people to participate positively in their communities and support local policing priorities. A second unit at Soham Village College is currently undergoing training and will qualify in July. There are also plans for the scheme to be rolled out to Wisbech and Cambridge City in the near future.\nThere are currently 32 Volunteer Police Cadet Leaders working across Peterborough and Soham who are a mixture of police officers contributing their free time and members of the community. They each contribute a minimum of two hours per week to the scheme as well as the occasional weekend.\nSome of the volunteers have gone on to acquire nationally-recognised qualifications in outdoor and sports leadership through the Duke of Edinburgh Award as well undergoing training in the Cadet programme delivery.\nSir Graham said: \u201cWe must not underestimate the value our Volunteer Police Cadet Leaders are bringing to young people\u2019s lives. As role models, they are instilling self-confidence and pride in the young cadets and providing them with opportunities to gain new experiences by taking action about issues that they care about. The relationships they build with the cadets encourage them to develop socially and academically and make a positive contribution to the area in which they live.\n\u201cAs well as chan ging the lives of our young people, our volunteers are also becoming more skilled, confident and employable during the process, benefiting all involved. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their hard work and dedication and look forward to their ongoing support.\u201d\nSam Thompson, a Volunteer Police Cadet Leader based in Soham, said: \u201cWorking with young people is something I have always wanted to be involved with. I saw the advert for police cadet volunteer leaders, and joined up. The process has motivated me, inspired me, and made me feel proud of myself for getting involved with young people in our community. I am equally as proud of seeing the leaps and bounds in confidence and personal skills the cadets are gaining in the short time we have been active \u2013 I can\u2019t wait to see what the future brings for us all, leaders and cadets.\u201d\nVolunteer Police Cadet Leaders do not have to have specific qualifications or experience for the roles as full training and support is provided however many do have prior experience of working with young people.\nIf you are interested in becoming involved with Cambridgeshire\u2019s Volunteer Police Cadets scheme please contact Hannah Watson, Volunteer Co-ordinator, at hannah.watson@cambs.pnn.police.uk or Tel: 01954 713911.\nIt aims to showcase the various volunteering roles available and provide taster sessions as well as boost recruitment levels.

        "raw_content": "Kevin Bell, Professor in the Remote West\nBy any reckoning, Kevin Bell did extremely well in his 11 years (1952 \u2013 1962) at Marcellin. In his final year he was both Captain and Dux of the college, and as well, represented it in all of football, cricket, swimming and athletics. It was an auspicious start which led to an enriched life, built upon his natural talents and the values with which his Marcellin days equipped him.\nKevin studied veterinary science at the University of Melbourne, where one of his class mates was Jo Hawkes from Riddell\u2019s Creek, whom he was to marry. Forty five years later, Kevin and Jo live in Broome WA, where they rejoice in their seven children, and 11 grand-children, with two more on the way. As Kevin puts it, in his optimistic, cheery way, \u201cI celebrate life at the end of every day with Jo and a few beers.\u201d\nTheir life\u2019s journey has been highly distinctive. After a couple of initial years practising as vets, they spent five years in South Korea as volunteers with the Columbian Missionary Society. \u201cIt totally reset our life,\u201d says Kevin. \u201cTalk about getting back more than you gave! All you need is to say yes to God.\u201d High among those rewards was an adopted son, Peter, who went on to achieve fame as a dual North Melbourne premiership player and Captain of the Fremantle Dockers.\nBack in Australia, Kevin re-immersed himself in his veterinary work, specialising in productivity in sheep flocks, work for which he achieved a PhD at Murdoch University. He moved into academia, becoming Professor at Murdoch and teaching the next generation of vets, and authoring a suite of academic papers on sheep reproduction.\nA somewhat unusual hobby of Kevin\u2019s is the plectrum banjo, through which he exudes his positivity about life. Just listen to him here in this interview with the ABC: http://www.abc.net.au/local/photos/2013/11/14/3891025.htm Another different interest is taekwando, which he has taught and earned a 2nd dan. It fostered his knowledge of biomechanics and pursuit of physical fitness.\nOf his Marcellin teachers he remembers most fondly the old, crippled Br Roger, for his self-sacrifice and for the love of chemistry he imparted.\n\u2190 Graeme Watson, Master of Many Trades Richard O'Sullivan, Professor of Plasma and Laser Physics \u2192",

        "raw_content": "A house is considered a good one if it satisfies certain condition. It\u2019s not just about how pretty or how big it is, but there actually other more important factors that affect the price of a house. Sure, the look and the size matter, but those things are easy to help you determine its price. The ones that must be calculated easily are other external factors that either make people want to buy it or simply look the other way. Right now, we\u2019re going to share with you the information about factors that affect the price of your property. Apart from that, we buy houses las vegas nv as well, so you may check out our website too.\nThis is the number one deciding factor that makes either the price skyrockets or simply drops down to the bottom. If your house is close enough to important public places, such as CBD, hospital, hotel, school, and other important public facilities, expect to have the price elevated. However, if it\u2019s in quite a remote area, you may have to wait for a very long time to meet a buyer who offers you a decent price.\nIt\u2019s true that this one is still tied to the first factor, but you see, a location such as a town or a district may be divided into several small territories. To put it simply and bluntly, some may belong to the area where decent and nice folks are living, while the other parts of that same town or neighborhood may fall into the hand of thugs, delinquents, and other kinds of unpleasant people that you don\u2019t want to meet in the dark alley on your way home after a brief visit to the nearby convenience store. Therefore, if you sell your house in the dark side of a town, then you may find a hard time to sell it.\nIf your place is close to a railroad, a nightclub, or other noisy places, it can be quite difficult to find someone who wants to buy it quickly, unless you lower the price of your house accordingly. However, you may want to install a sound dampener in order to reduce the risk of losing a potential buyer because of this problem.\ncondos for sale in las vegas, las vegas homes for sale with pool, mls las vegas",

        "raw_content": "The Association\u2019s First Year After Developer Turnover\nGuest Post By: Michael Rome, JD, and Julie Rome of Cobb Management Group, Inc.\nIt is important to successfully turnover control of an Association from the developer to the homeowners. Inheriting numerous problems can make a new Board\u2019s transition very difficult. (See \u201cAn Association\u2019s Guide to Successful Turnover\u201d Georgia Commons, 3rd Quarter 2001.)\nAssuming that the new Board is in place and that turnover has gone well; what should the new Directors do next? The first year of homeowner control can set a tone for the life of the Association by establishing precedents for new routines.\nOne of these routines is the scheduling of regular Board meetings. Directors should be able to plan for their attendance well in advance of the meeting date. Boards might try something like \u201cthe second Tuesday evening of each month\u201d. I have seen Boards spend much of their precious time trying to set a new time each month that fits everyone\u2019s schedule. If a particular Board member cannot make a meeting, they often have the option of giving their Proxy vote to another Director on an upcoming issue.\nAnother good habit is setting an agenda for the meetings. The agenda can be simple, but it helps keep the proceedings organized and on-track. Otherwise, Board members can easily spend two hours or more wandering over different topics.\nBoard members can find it unpleasant to police their neighbors, but it is crucial to consistently enforce Architectural Guidelines from the start. It is easy to let violations go, and realize a year later that the neighborhood has gone downhill. Just as bad, the homeowners may now have a legal defense to the assessment of penalties due to the delay in attempting enforcement. Associations in this situation need to consult legal counsel.\nAnother vital area is communication. Homeowners need to be kept informed of a Board\u2019s major decisions. Newsletters and websites are great tools. An exit sign is a wonderful place to post announcements, along with basic contact information for residents and real estate agents. A welcome package for new residents should contain at least the governing documents, modification request forms, and a letter from the President of the Association.\nOne of the most significant duties of the Board is control of the budget. An excellent beginning to a well-planned Association is a Reserve Study. This will let the Board know what amount to set the annual dues based on the projection of future expenses. In other words, it is important to start a reserve fund (savings account) right from the beginning. This way it may not be necessary to charge residents with a large special assessment when funds fall short. Once the base reserve study is completed it can be updated on an annual basis for a small fee.\nOther considerations during the first year are legal review of the governing documents for possible amendments, and review of the property tax assessments for the common areas. These taxes should only be a minimal amount. This is because the valuation on the individual lots already includes the right to usage of the common areas. Associations can spend years overpaying on property taxes, which are in effect double taxation.\nSpeaking of taxes, the first year is a an excellent time to start the annual practice of having an accountant review the Association\u2019s financial records, and file the Federal and State tax returns. It can be comforting for the residents and the Board to know that a third party has looked over the books.\nThe preceding is not a comprehensive list of things to be done during the first year, but hopefully this article highlights several points that will help the new homeowner Association get off to a great start.",

        "raw_content": "What Can We Do By 2022? Planner Patrick Kennedy and Jim Kumon of Strong Towns visit with advice for Houston's next mayor\nLast night I had the opportunity to go hear both Patrick Kennedy, a Dallas-based urban planner and designer, and Jim Kumon, the executive director of Strong Towns. speak at Houston Tomorrow's summer lecture series, What Can We Do By 2022? The discussion of their topics continues today at Houston Tomorrow's luncheon discussing the same topics from last night. Today, Houstonians Steve Spillette, Raj Mankad, and Susan Rogers will also take part in a panel discussion highlighting walkable urbanism and the city's tax base. This series is intended to highlight what can be done by the time another Houston mayor (or three, in the chance one mayor is not elected two more times; and, can we get a charter amendment and create four-year mayoral term limits already?) is done implementing their strategies.\nJim Kumon of Strong Towns focused his discussion on development data, specifically the return on investment of development. In many of our cities we are facing infrastructure crises, trying to figure out how we will pay for much needed updates. Should we increase taxes? That won't be popular. How about cutting services? That won't be popular either. We as American cities struggle to figure out what to do next. Part of this problem, Kumon states, is that we don't know what to do first.\nKumon's presentation included three main points, 1) The space between buildings and its function, 2) The city as a corporation, and 3), doing the math on place, asking how much it costs to achieve the outcomes we currently have in our cities.\nJim Kumon of Strong Towns with suggestions for Houston's next mayor\nWe know that different parts of our cities will look and perform different than others. But, the form of our cities is important, and is a driver for economic activity. The street designed to move traffic as efficiently as possible (Chuck Marohn at Strong Towns has labelled this a \"stroad\") may not be the same \"sticky\" street that allows for a greater amount of economic activity.\nAs citizens, we are shareholders in our cities, and we should want a high rate of return. Many times we are building infrastructure without considering the cost that will be incurred with continued maintenance. Kumon proposed what he called \"The Mansion Proposition\", asking the audience whether they would be willing to inherit a $20 million mansion, or simply gain a typical $200,000 home. Given the maintenance costs, even without the initial investment in the home itself, a mansion will cost much more. This is a parallel to the kind of thinking that has been applied to the development of infrastructure in many cities. It's just too much infrastructure to afford.\nFinally, we need to do some math on the places within our cities that are outperforming their investment, or those that are absorbing much more than they are contributing to a tax base. Kumon cited an example from Lafayette, Louisiana, which helps to see the mismatches between revenue and expenses in a city. An analysis much like the one undertaken in Lafayette can help cities understand where they are overachieving, and also where they are subsidizing development and activity.\nPatrick Kennedy followed, highlighting some of the glaring differences between Houston and Dallas. For the most part, Houston seemed to come out on top. But, Dallas has a great deal of momentum, especially politically, in discussing what its city should look like, and how it should function. Kennedy presented some the work he has done in Dallas, especially with The Coalition for a New Dallas and the proposition of removing Interstate 345 from Downtown Dallas.\nKennedy reminded us that cities thrive on connectivity. This is where the desirability of places comes from; how connected they are. Highways do nothing but disconnect a community. He then provided a few suggestions for Houston to consider to incrementally allow for a greater amount of investment in our development, including;\nchanging the current method of traffic modeling to account for mixed use development and the decreased number of trips in a particular area that might result from greater density,\nutilizing parking overlay districts to achieve more flexibility in land use options, and\nsplitting the tax rates of property and improvements on properties.\nIf yesterday's discussion was any indication of today's luncheon, it should be a great time filled with stimulating conversation. These are important ideas that our leaders need to be exposed to and considering, and will likely lead to better governance and representation for our city's citizens.\nLabels: City Planning, Houston, Urban Planning\n\"splitting the tax rates of property and improvements on properties.\"\nThere is a Houston precedent for this. Briefly in the early 20th century, the City of Houston taxed improvements at 25% of appraisal and land at 75% of appraisal.\nOur current property tax system incentivizes holding underutilized land. The developers aren't the enemy, at least by default. We need to make the real estate trusts less comfortable about holding vacant or unused land.",

The transaction will see Cebu Pacific double its turboprop fleet size, subject to the execution of final purchase documentation.\nThe order is part of Cebu Pacific's fleet renewal program. Cebu Pacific currently operates a fleet of eight ATR 72-500 aircraft, which will be retired as the new aircraft enter service.\nThe entry into service of the ATR 72-600 will see Cebu Pacific with new generation aircraft to meet growing demand in the Philippines for inter-island services.\nATR aircraft enjoy a high reputation not only for versatility but also for their ability to operate on short runways. This will allow Cebu Pacific to expand its operations not only on main airports but also to several other airports around the country, enabling Cebu Pacific to continue to play a leading role in the development of regional transport, tourism, and local economy in the Philippines.\nThe ATR 72-600 ordered by Cebu Pacific will be equipped, for the first time, with the high density Armonia cabin, the widest cabin in the turboprop market. It will be equipped with 78 slim-line seats and wider overhead bins with 30% more stowage space. These new technological innovations further enhance space and comfort for passengers.\nAbout 330 ATRs \u2013 including more than 100 ATR 72-600s \u2013 are currently operated by 55 airlines in the Asia-Pacific region, where for many years now, they have been seen as the reference regional aircraft. The ATR 72-600 has the lowest cost per seat mile in the 70 seat segment, with significantly lower fuel and maintenance costs compared to similar class aircraft.\nOn their new order from ATR, Lance Y. Gokongwei, President and CEO of Cebu Pacific states: \"We have been operating ATR aircraft since 2008, and they have enabled us to bring safe, reliable, and affordable air transport to smaller cities and islands throughout the Philippines. This order is an affirmation of our commitment to extend the convenience of affordable air travel to even more communities. We are very pleased to be the launch customer of this new configuration of the ATR 72-600, as this will allow us to offer our customers more seats at even lower fares.\"\nPatrick de Castelbajac, Chief Executive Officer of ATR, declared to be \"very happy to continue our partnership with one of the leading airlines in South-East Asia and to contribute to the expansion of its network throughout the islands of the archipelago. Cebu Pacific will also be able to benefit from the vast support network for ATR operators in Asia. When their first ATR 72-600 arrives, there will be five ATR pilot training centers in the region.\"\nPassenger capacity: 68 to 78 seats\nEngines: Pratt & Whitney Canada PW 127M\nMaximum take-off power: 2,750 horsepower per engine\nMaximum take-off weight: 23,000 kg\nMaximum range when fully loaded: 900 nautical miles (1,665 km)\nCEB currently operates a fleet of 55 aircraft comprised of 10 Airbus A319, 31 Airbus A320, 6 Airbus A330 and 8 ATR-72 500 aircraft.

        "raw_content": "Whenever I think of posting about \"weather\" and \"winter,\" then including the actual temperatures, our highs and lows, I get embarrassed. I think of my friends in Massachusetts, or up in Oregon, in Norway, or England. I think, now, they know what cold is! They are going to think our \"winter\" is nothing at all. And they'd be correct. Our \"winter\" has been nothing at all. We have had 90s, 80s, and regular days of 70 degrees fahrenheit. Local friends post pictures of their children in the surf, or swimming in a pool. Most nights I've slept with an open window. It really has been more like a late spring, unseasonably warm, and terribly dry.\nWell. This week it decided to be winter, with some rain, even. And for us, it feels really cold.\nWe had a high today of 55 degrees. Wimpy, right? I know. But we forget to wear sweaters, we never unpacked our beanies. I am too lazy to put on lace-up shoes, and go out in flip-flops. I am acclimated to 74 degrees, from just 2 days ago, and now we are getting frost advisories, but by the time I remember how to put on a sweater, and wear socks, we will be in another heatwave.\nAh, geez. I know. None of this can sound too terrible to anyone still shoveling snow, or facing more dark gray skies. In truth, I love this week of winter! I really want it to last long enough for me to get it together to bake some bread, wear one of the twenty-five shawls I've crocheted. We love the rain! We love the cats piling up on our feet, roasting butternut squash, putting on gloves, watching clouds, in the big, wintery blue sky. Gosh, it's cold, we sure hope it sticks around! Now, I am going into the kitchen to finish steaming potatoes, and red-cabbage. We are fixing a hearty dinner, to brace ourselves for this week of winter.\nLabels: Bird House, California, Chicas, Garden, Goats, Weather, Winter",

The Healthy Love Party is a workshop that creates an engaging environment in which participants have the unique chance to connect with their sexuality in a way that is positive and self-loving instead of shameful or degrading. The logic of this workshop is that if women think and talk about sex and sexuality in positive ways, they will be more likely to value their bodies enough to protect themselves. The workshop encourages participants to be confident in approaching their own sexuality and to demand safe behaviors from themselves and their partners. It also provides the opportunity for women to explore, discuss and dispel the barriers to practicing safer sex. Free HIV and STD testing will be available on site for all participants. The workshop will be in Arts & Sciences room G-127 on Wednesday, Feb. 26, from 12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. Loch Shop Survey and Grad Fair\nThe Loch Shop is participating in a national survey on course materials and technology.

        "raw_content": "Board of Trustees news: CLC receives clean audit\nCompleting a process underway since June, auditors gave the College of Lake County\u2019s Fiscal Year 2016 financial statements an unmodified (\u201cclean\u201d) opinion. Representatives from RMS LLP US reported on the audit at the Sept. 27 CLC Board of Trustees\u2019 meeting. The audit included a review of basic financial statements, grants from the Illinois Community College Board, internal controls, credit hour reporting and the CLC Foundation as well as the clarity and transparency of financial records.\n\u201cBeing financially accountable and transparent in our practices is a top priority for the Board of Trustees,\u201d said Board Chair Dr. William M. Griffin. \u201cWe are very pleased to again receive a clean audit.\u201d\nThe board approved the audit report and authorized the college to file it with the Illinois Community College Board and appropriate federal agencies.\nPrior to the meeting, board members and President Jerry Weber (right) held an informal ribbon cutting ceremony for recently constructed and renovation spaces at the Grayslake Campus that include Caf\u00e9 Willow, Welcome and One Stop Center, Student Commons and Student Life offices/meeting spaces and then toured the spaces.\nFiscal accountability report\nKen Gotsch, vice president for administrative affairs, provided a fiscal accountability report covering the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2016. Gotsch said that the college ended FY 16 with total operating fund revenues of $95.4 million. This amount was $7.4 million below the budgeted amount due to state fiscal crisis that reduced funding to CLC. In response, administration made tough decisions and reduced spending by $7.9 million, resulting in a surplus that allowed the college to add $668,835 to the fund balance, now at $31.4 million, about 33 percent of annual expenditures. The board\u2019s policy is to maintain an unrestricted fund balance of at least 25 percent of budgeted operating expenditures.\nNew Promise Program to kick off\nTo support the new CLC Promise Program, the board approved a resolution to transfer funds from operations and maintenance to the CLC Foundation to act as start-up funding.\nThe Promise Program, which will accept its first students in Fall Semester 2017, is enthusiastically supported by district superintendents from the Lake County High School Alliance and is focused on low-income students, offering both financial and academic support. Promise scholarships will cover the gap between federal financial aid and CLC tuition and fees. Promise scholarship recipients will develop a two-year academic plan, create a career or transfer plan and participate in leadership and professional development activities.\nCLC President Jerry Weber estimated that about 200 students will be eligible per year. After the initial funding is depleted, private donations raised through the CLC Foundation will support the program.\nStudent success updates\nKaren Hlavin, associate vice president for educational affairs, provided an update on CLC\u2019s new Guaranteed Transfer Admission program. So far, 19 agreements have been signed with many of CLC students\u2019 top transfer colleges and universities, and more agreements are in the works, according to Hlavin. Student response to the program so far has been very positive.\n\u201cIn just under three months, we have received 226 inquiries, and 55 students have declared their intent to transfer to one of the 19 partner institutions. Our guaranteed transfer website has received about 6,000 views. I am very excited about the potential these agreements hold for both our local and international students. We are the only community college in Illinois with this type of portfolio of guaranteed transfer options,\u201d Hlavin said.\nDr. Sean Hogan, executive director of Institutional Effectiveness, Planning and Research, reported on student enrollment and retention trends. For Fall Semester, enrollment in credit courses is about 1.5 percent down from Fall 2015, which is better than anticipated. \u201cDeclines of 3-4 percent were common at most suburban Chicago community colleges,\u201d he said.\nIn order to restart construction planning for a new building at the Lakeshore Campus in Waukegan, the board approved extending an Intergovernmental Agreement to the Illinois Capital Development Board (CDB) to cover design fees until funds are re-appropriated by the General Assembly. Funding from the CDB for the project ended June 30, 2015 due to the lack of a state budget. Funds allocated for the cost of the project total $47,902,961, of which $14 million is to be paid by CLC through bond sales.\nThe CLC Master Plan approved by the board in November 2012 included the extensive Lakeshore Campus expansion and renovation to expand academic options and provide students a full-service experience. Plans call for 53,090 square feet of new construction and 19,704 square feet of existing building renovations. Healthcare career programs will be the focus of the campus, with additional space for general classrooms, adult education services, offices, laboratories, student services, enrollment center, career placement, childcare center, food service and community, general use and student support spaces. Much of the design work by Legat Architects is done, with final designs to be completed by October 2017 and the new building is scheduled to open in summer 2020.\nIn restarting the project, the college will incorporate feedback from college faculty and staff and community stakeholders from the city of Waukegan, Waukegan Main Street, Lakeshore Campus Advisory Committee, Waukegan School District 60, legislators\u2019 offices and others, according to Gotsch.\nThe board approved a one-year contract extension with Cheryl Axley, LLC of Mount Prospect, for lobbyist services not to exceed $5,000 per month.\n\u201cOur lobbyists were instrumental in getting the state funding to complete the new Science Building this summer. CLC was one of just four community colleges to receive capital funds, and much of our success was due to the coordinated effort made by our staff, board members and lobbyists,\u201d said President Jerry Weber.\nTrustees also approved a three-year agreement with the Waukegan Public Library to provide in-class tutoring services for adult education students at CLC campuses and community sites. The library\u2019s tutoring program coordinator and CLC\u2019s Adult Basic Education, GED and ESL division staff work together to best meet the needs of both programs and students. The Waukegan Public Library provides us tutoring for about 150 students, using 40-50 volunteer tutors yearly. The agreement formalizes a program that has been in place since the 1980s.\nThe board appointed Ken Gotsch as local election official and assistant secretary for the April 4, 2017 election. Nominating petitions for two CLC board positions, each with six-year terms, are now available on the CLC website or in Room A107, Grayslake Campus. The board positions are currently held by Jeanne T. Goshgarian of Round Lake and Lynda C. Paul of Gurnee.\nThe trustees approved a three-year contract between the college and the Illinois Fraternal Order of Police Labor Council. The contract covers 21 full-time CLC Police employees, including 13 sworn police officers. It provides a new starting pay rate that aligns with other community colleges.",

        "raw_content": "\u20ac2.1bn EU Bill - Should the UK pay up?\nDavid Cameron recently expressed outrage when the UK was hit with a \u20ac2.1bn (\u00a31.7bn) bill by the EU. Cameron interrupted an EU summit meeting to protest against the surprise bill (video below).\nWhy do we have to pay?\nEU contributions are calculated using a \"complex\" formula, based on a country's gross national income (GNI - the sum of a nation\u2019s gross domestic product plus net income received from overseas). Past estimates of GNI have been too low. This is because, as the FT reports, Britain under-recorded the size and contributions of its charitable sector. This means that the UK has been contributing too little to the EU budget. The \u20ac2.1bn bill represents underpayments from 2002-2013.\nBritain is not the only country being asked to cough up - nine countries, including the Netherlands (\u20ac642bn), Italy (\u20ac340bn), Cyprus (\u20ac42m) and Greece (\u20ac89m) are also facing a bill. Meanwhile, France and Germany will receive rebates of \u20ac1bn and \u20ac779m respectively.\nWhat will happen if we don't pay?\nDavid Cameron has made it clear that he doesn't intend to pay the bill - at least not by the December 1st deadline.\nJacek Dominik, the departing EU budget commissioner said that the Commission was applying rules on EU contributions to figures provided by UK authorities, and that a change in the rules would require a new law, which would require the approval of a weighted majority of member states as well as the European parliament. The new European Commission yesterday warned that the debt will incur interest charges if not paid on time, at an annual rate of 52%.\nSo should we pay?\nYes - On one hand, failure to pay is likely to incur the sanctions warned of above. The UK will not be able to simply ignore the requests of the European Commission as it will reflect badly on us as members of an international community. We cannot just disregard obligations that don't suit us.\nNo - Whilst the bill may be justified considering the UK's under payments to the EU budget, the time-scale for payment is very short - just over a month's notice was given. This seems particularly unfair, considering that the debt represents over 10 years of under-payment.\nIt is also worth noting that the Rochester and Strood by-election, triggered by former Tory MP Mark Reckless' defection to UKIP, will be taking place on November 20th. UKIP have maintained a lead over the Conservatives in opinion polls thus far. UKIP leader Nigel Farage said of the situation \"don't forget, one of [David Cameron's] big claims was he'd cut the EU budget.\"\nIt will be interesting to see how convincing David Cameron's anti-EU rant will be to voters, and whether or not the PM will be able to reach a compromise with the European Commission.\nBBC News - Cameron: UK won't pay \u00a31.7bn EU bill\nThe Financial Times - Brussels warns David Cameron over \u20ac2.1bn bill payment\nThe Telegraph - EU threatens to fine Britain \u00a370 million a month\nCommercially Aware - UPDATE: EU Bill halved (07/11/2014)\nLabels: Economics, EU, European Commission, European Union, UKIP",

        "raw_content": "Feb 25 Assad's Quiet Allies: Christians\nEliot Sackler, Middle East, Web Columnists, World\nThese days, Bashar al-Assad is no longer the international darling he once was. Since 2011, the Syrian leader has waged war against his own people and has participated in one of the worst humanitarian crises in recent history, deploying chemical weapons against his own civilians and denying any wrongdoing with a cold-blooded stoicism. He even has disavowed the legitimacy of any opposition before him, and has expressed his desire to lead his \u201ccountry\u201d and his \u201cpeople\u201d going forward. In the face of international outcry, he has remained resolute in his mission to remain in power while toeing the line of human atrocity.\nWhy would anyone support a man like this? Hezbollah, Iran, and Russia protect him for geopolitical considerations. The Syrian military and government see their personal salvation wedded to his success. Alawites dread the persecution they may face in a post-Assad world. And most predominantly, there are those\u2014and increasingly so in the Western world\u2014who prefer Bashar al-Assad because he is the \u201cdevil they know\u201d.\nOn Syria\u2019s southern flank in Jordan, few would agree with the above justifications. In this (approximately) 95% Sunni Muslim country, most Jordanians support Assad\u2019s ouster. As a friend to Shiite Iran and Hezbollah while a ruler of a majority Sunni country, the al-Assad family for years has struggled against the rise in popularity of Sunni Islamic movements within Syria. And as the sectarian rhetoric has taken hold of the Syrian war, most Jordanians do not want to believe that Bashar al-Assad could be their geopolitical friend.\nBut even more importantly, as the war continues to drag on, refugees continue to pour into Jordan; in other words, the threat of a spillover remains. The Syrian civil war has created major stresses for the Jordanian economy and threatens to reshape the country's demographic and political map. As one local in northern Jordan expressed to me, life in Jordan has become \u201cmore expensive\u201d, and refugee inflows have created tense \u201csocial issues\u201d between newcomers and native Syrian inhabitants. To Jordanians, Assad is the source of these headaches. The sooner he goes, the better.\nYet despite the popularity of the previously described opinion, there is still one group of Jordanians whose support for Assad remains uniform\u2014albeit quietly. These Jordanians dread a world without Assad, despite recognizing his malice and empathizing with the anxiety of Syria\u2019s Alawite population, because they prefer Assad as the devil they know over the extremist devil they don't (rebel groups). Their justification is not of the religious type, for they do not believe in the Quran or Mohammad. Just who are these people then?\nJordan\u2019s Christians.\nAs about 4% of Jordan\u2019s population, Christians comprise the largest minority group in the overwhelmingly Muslim country, inhabiting a privileged position in society. Considered among the business and political elite, Christians enjoy an amicable relationship with the monarchy: not only are Christian holidays celebrated publicly in Jordan, but the Christian community is allotted 9 out of the total 110 seats in the elected Jordanian parliament. And one need not go far to see why Jordan\u2019s Christian community is one of the oldest in the world. Across Jordan, ancient Christian churches inhabit a position of importance within the rich multi-faith mosaic known as the Holy Land.\nBut beneath the surface, and between the vestiges of this historical interfaith fabric, lies a more troubling, less romantic reality. The Christian population has dropped precipitously in recent decades, down from the previously estimated 10-12%. Violence against the Christian community may be nonexistent, but there is still a palpable tension in the air. \u201cWe don\u2019t feel safe here,\u201d one Christian told me, \u201cat work, I am still asked by my Muslim coworkers why I have not yet converted to Islam. They tell me my life would be better.\u201d (He works in software animation, and has no plans to convert.)\nThis sentiment may not be applicable to all Christians, but it is also not an outlier. Among many Christians perspectives, I have heard that the problems in the Arab world today are the result of \u201cIslamic culture\u201d and that \u201cIslam is not ready for democracy.\u201d I have even heard from one Christian that Islam is the \u201creligion of the devil.\u201d While these are particularly harsh words, there is indeed a general sense of wariness among the Christian population vis-\u00e0-vis their Muslim neighbors. They feel more vulnerable than welcome here. In a country where Christian missionary activity is illegal and Muslim worship is open and public, Christians are a minority\u2014and they know it.\nYet even more glaring is the colossal gap in perception between the Muslim and Christian communities. While I have heard from one Muslim that \u201cIslam is better than Christianity,\u201d the more commonly expressed Muslim opinion is that Christians and Muslims (and even Jews) all come from the same mold. They are three peoples under \u201cone God.\u201d Al-Kitaab al- Maqdus, or the \u201cHoly Book\u201d (the Bible), binds these people together. Any conflict between these peoples is not an issue of faith, but rather of politics.\nThis dissonance is striking. Even if we assume that most Jordanian Muslims genuinely believe that Christians are their brothers under \u201cone God,\u201d most Jordanian Christians still don\u2019t feel the same way. This dynamic may just be the result of basic majority-minority demographic relations, but it may also have to do with the obvious religious character of Jordan.\nBy many respects, Islam is currently experiencing a resurgence of religious conservatism around the Middle East. It is very much part of daily life here, and in part frames social interaction. While riding cabs, I am frequently asked if I am Muslim\u2014one of the first questions in my discussion with the driver. When I tell them I am Christian, the discussion still continues, sometimes about religion, sometimes not.\nThis is not to say that Christians are immediately judged negatively as \u201cChristians\u201d in this Muslim country, but rather that to observe religion is an important element of identity in Jordan, and has become even more so with the spread sectarian discourse. Within the majority Muslim community there exists a seemingly special relationship, which includes particular habits and expressions. No matter how much they respect me, a non-Muslim, I\u2019m not one of them, and I know it. Jordanian Christians may be Jordanian, but they are certainly not Muslim, and they know it too.\nSo as Christians lend their quiet support to the Assad\u2019s brutal regime in Syria, they only do so because they fear a victory by his enemies. With the recent rise of Islamist groups like ISIS in Syria\u2014groups that endeavor to implement strict Islamic Sharia law\u2014Jordanian Christians pray that Assad will defeat and deter those who may threaten their way of life in Jordan. They have seen what as happened to Christians in Egypt since the fall of Mubarak, and they pray that Assad will re-impose stability in Syria and spare Jordan of any discriminatory religious terror.\nJordan may stand by its Christian population today. But if the Islamic extremists come knocking on Jordan\u2019s door, can Jordan\u2019s Christians rely upon the protection of their Muslim brothers?

And in a world where marketing budgets continue to shrink, that\u2019s a real problem when your project needs that generic photo to speak to an audience authentically, and memorably.\nBeing an art director/designer myself for over 20 years, I got real good at scrolling past thousands of cheesy smiles, or awkward scenarios\u2026etc. to eventually find what I needed. But I was truly never entirely satisfied with my choice, and each and every time I was tasked with the unrewarding job, I scratched my head and wondered why it had to be this way?\nThen, Brianna Wettlaufer came into the picture. Brianna has been the CEO and Co-Founder of Stocksy since 2012, a beautifully curated collection of royalty-free stock photography and video footage that people could actually use. And with a former life as Co-Founder of iStock (the first democratized microstock photography platform, later bought out by Getty Images in 2006), Brianna was set to take stock photography and video to the next level\u2026click on this link to see what I mean.\nBrianna is also a VIATEC Board Member, Governance Committee Chair for which this portrait was taken. The theme of the shoot was pride and confidence, where I asked each person that sat in front of my camera to think of their proudest accomplishments to date so I could capture that look, authentically. And given the look on Brianna\u2019s face that day, you know she continues to be a woman on a mission\u2026and thank goodness for that.\nSee Brianna\u2019s full portrait here.",

        "raw_content": "Athlete of the Month - Jimmy Douglas\nPrior to CrossFit, I was your stereotypical weightlifter. Isolated movements in front of mirrors with slow controlled repetitions. Working my upper body significantly more often than my lower body, thinking that logical groupings (i.echest/tri\u2019s, back/bi\u2019s, etc.) was the answer. My goals were to lift heavy weight and get \u201cripped\u201d. I will admit to having a level of arrogance around working out, thinking because I\u2019ve done it so long, I know what I\u2019m doing. As a resident of New Town, my gym was in my basement and I had everything I needed.\nEnter Rochelle and Jeff Thayer and this thing they called CrossFit, circa 2008. Back then Jeff and Rochelle made \u201cRehab Saturday\u201d free to anyone that wanted to try CrossFit. My wife at the time had a knack for finding things to punish the human body when it came to fitness and somehow convinced me to try it. After my first time, I walked away ego bruised, not in nearly as good of shape as I thought, and I told myself I was never going back\u2026yet for some reason I did.\nThe cycle of wanting to die after working out, followed by outward statements of quitting, and then finding myself right back in the gym with the other cross fitters the following week continued for years after that, and I couldn\u2019t figure out why. In the end, I think it fits with being athlete of the month.\nDespite having been an official member of the gym since 2011 and even worked out with TNT prior to that, I\u2019m not the strongest, I\u2019m not the fastest, and I\u2019m certainly not the most consistent or dedicated athlete. So, I had to ask, why choose me as athlete of the month? The answer I got reaffirmed the very reason I keep coming back\u2026 I was told, \u2018you always help with events if the gym is hosting something, you cheer on other athletes and celebrate their success, and really support what CrossFit is all about\u2019.\nI am honored to have been selected as athlete of the month. I love doing all of the things stated, when I asked \u201cwhy me\u201d, and truly believe CrossFit is something special. I\u2019ve seen the gym grow from something very small with a very big vision into one of the region\u2019s finest CrossFit boxes, with a superb dynamic of coaching staff and programming. I\u2019ve learned more about myself and fitness with CrossFit than I have in any other sport or activity I\u2019ve participated in. And most importantly, I\u2019ve made friendships that I cherish to the core and wouldn\u2019t trade anything in the world for. Crossfit is more than just your own personal goals. It is working together in a community to help push each other to greatness, celebrating with one another when we cross the finish line, and I can\u2019t wait to see what the future holds. Thank you to the coaches for this incredible honor and for everything you do.",

Within the next few months, I will be settling in one place, no longer being a nomad, but still traveling. Instead of 12 months of travel each year, constantly moving from place to place, I estimate that I will travel for closer to six months of each year. That is still a lot of travel, but between trips, I will be returning to a particular place, with my stuff on the walls, and an office set up to my preferences, and a big bathtub for soaking out the kinks of sitting in airplane seats for hours at a time.\nI wanted to wait until the end of the year to make the announcement, but I've told several people, so I thought it was time to be public. It is a big decision for me, and I know a lot of you will be disappointed, since you have hoped I'd settle down near you. Some of you do live in places that I've placed on my Top 5 list for reasons of strong community and beautiful landscapes. I've fantasized about spending a season in each of four places. I still hope to visit those places for several weeks at a time, but I won't be living there permanently or even seasonally.\nI never expected that I would say this, but I've decided to move back to Florida.

I have winter boots and heavy coats appropriate to the weather of the Rockies. I am not a big fan of the creepy, crawly things that live in tropical environments.

Two and a half years in the making, the debut album \u201cThe Book of Psalms: Chapters 1-25\u201d contains the first twenty-five Psalms...read in a careful, contemplative manner and backed by original, visceral music which reflects the mood and message of each particular Psalm. Twenty-five songs clocking in at a total of just under 80 minutes, this album is an audio-Bible like no other.\nLights To Lights is the solo project of Jimmy Sisco (lead singer/guitarist/bassist for Platoon 1107; lead singer/guitarist for Absolved) who wrote, played, recorded, and produced the album himself. The term \"lights to lights\" comes from Marine Corps boot camp (Jimmy is a Marine veteran). If a drill instructor is on duty, with the recruits when the lights are turned on in the early morning for Reveille, is there all day with the recruits, and is still there when the lights are turned off at night for Taps, he is on \"lights to lights\". There was always such an omnipresence regarding that drill instructor. He was there from start to finish with the recruits. Watching. Teaching. Disciplining. Guiding. Always there. God's presence in our lives is like that. There with us as we wake. There with us as we fall asleep. Lights to lights.\n\u201cThe Book of Psalms: Chapters 1-25\u201d is available now via MMLJ Records and can be purchased online at mmljrecords.bandcamp.com or other online digital music stores.\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/LightsToLights\nhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/album/book-psalms-chapters-1-25/id923032604?uo=4",

        "raw_content": "Home > For Advocates > Advocacy Sector Conversations forum series > Who\u2019s not eligible for the NDIS?\nThis was the second session at the Advocacy Sector Conversations forum held on 24 November 2016 at the Investment Centre of Victoria.\nThe panelists represented people with disability who are either not eligible for the NDIS or who have complexities that make interaction with the agency difficult. A range of issues were raised, and information shared, however many more questions than answers were left in the air.\nLauren Henley from the \u2018My Aged Scare\u2019 campaign representing people with disability over the age of 65.\nSimone Allen from Victorian Mental Illness awareness Council representing episodic mental health conditions.\nAlpha Lasimba from ADEC representing cultural and linguistically diverse people.\nJen Blyth from Deaf Victoria representing people who use Auslan as their primary communication.\nOkay, we\u2019re back a little bit early. Because we are having a bit of extra time for the office of disability this afternoon in lighted of their recent announcement yesterday.\nFirstly, we\u2019re short of volunteers. So if anyone would volunteer to run the microphone at question time please see Michael, who is just over there.\nWe know that if a person is over 65, has an episode of disability and is not an Australian citizen they are not eligible for the NDIS. There are also some services that will get swallowed up in the NDIS making them unavailable for those people already in the NDIS. I would like to invite our panellists to speak on those issues.\nWe are also waiting for Lauren Henley, a campaign leader for the My Aged Scare Campaign. SimonE, what do you see as the biggest issue for people with episodes of disability accessing support needs in the NDIS environment and how are services for the non-eligible people being captured?\nSIMONE ALLEN:\nThank you for the question. There is not enough evidence of the NDIA understanding psychosocial disability, episodic or not. When someone is going through an episode there is a plan and funding in place, expecting a shift in the plan when things get worse is not going to happen. People might feel recover bud they are having to stipulate their worst case scenarios to get into the NDIS.\nWe are concerned that the board of the NDIA has recently been reformed and there is now not a single person on the board who has been declared with a lived experience of disability and we are definitely concerned there will be a lack of services for people who are not eligible despite assurances that no person would be worse off.\nMental health services are working in an environment of uncertainty to try to be ready for the NDIS but there is fear and confusion. There doesn\u2019t seem to be much information for people with psychosocial disability who are participants in the NDIS and then have to make a choice between staying in the NDIS or entering the aged care sector.\nJan, can you tell us what the national Auslan booking service is and how it will impact on people who need medical interpreting but don\u2019t have an NDIS package?\nJEN BLYTH:\nSure. Thanks, Melissa.\nNABs stands for the National Auslan Booking Service, a government funded organisation. They provide interpreters for medical situations. For deaf and hard of hearing people across Australia. For instance, if you need to visit the doctor, the GP, if you have an appointment in a private hospital, if you are going to a physio, the provision of interpreters is provided by this organisation for free across the nation.\nThe introduction of the NDIS means it will have some impact potentially on the funding that NABs is allocated. So as part of your NDIS package you would also have to incorporate medical interpreting costs so that could have a major impact on the service provision of interpreters in medical situations. And specifically if you are over the age of 65. So it\u2019s very contentious and very uncertain as to what will happen.\nAlpha, what are the biggest issues going forward for migrant communities accessing services?\nALPHA LASIMBA:\nI think because we do have 50 per cent of our clients have for five years been in Australia or two to three years. Most of them are not eligible or they don\u2019t have the necessary medical conditions or diagnosis,they do have a disability but they are not yet diagnosed in Australia to qualify for NDIS.\nBut the biggest challenge for us is to restructure the organisation and divide the team into those who will need us to transition to the NDIS and those who will remain working on a block funding basis now. For short, the NDIS and determining eligibility is quite difficult for someone who is new in Australia or not with English as their first language. So we are telling people this is the NDIS, this is the requirements. And this is the shift that is going to happen.\nFor example, if your son or anyone from your family has a disability, and the new regulation is that the ISP is likely to be rolled over to the NDIS, we have in the pre-planning. But the problem is for those who actually still don\u2019t have ISP or DSP \u2014 it\u2019s the problem there.\nA question for all of you. How are you currently supporting those who you know that are not eligible for the NDIS?\nFor us, I guess, those who are not eligible for the NDIS, because we still have block funding so we navigate them. That\u2019s what we do. But the problem comes for example if the block funding stops, no longer block funding, someone is not eligible for the NDIS, I don\u2019t know what would happen there. Anyone?\nOkay. While waiting for Lauren to arrive \u2014 what needs to happen for your group to access services outside of the NDIS and what are the barriers to making this happen? We will start with Simone.\nAn assurance that there are services outside of the NDIS. Where would that funding be coming from and services and individuals focusing on getting ready for the NDIS. So how much attention is being paid to those not eligible.\nWell, I guess what is happening with NABs specifically,, one of the areas that is problematic\u2026 Sorry, let me start again\u2026 Currently, we have aged care funding thats running in parallel to the NDIS funding. So we think that the aged care funding allocation should have been changed alongside the NDIS, but that hasn\u2019t happened.\nSo that\u2019s problematic in itself. So at the moment we\u2019re looking at how we can work with NABs and the aged care provision to make this work out for people who are over 65 but we think it really does need a collaborative approach. If you are over 65, you want to be sure you can get access to interpreters in medical settings. The barriers are obvious, people in government don\u2019t understand, they don\u2019t understand the issues that People with disability have. And I think that would be true of everyone in this room, everyone in this room would have experienced that. So I think that education is key, teaching those government departments about disability and the issues that exist.\nAlpha, What needs to happen for your group to access services outside of the NDIS and what are the barriers to making this happen?\nI think I have a similar answer to yours. So the NDIS has rolled out last July, there is still room for improvement. The key thing as mentioned is the services organisations outside of the NDIS that continue to sit in services and also the advocacy agencies also continue to receive the block funding.\nThere must be some solutions for people who are not eligible for the NDIS. For us in terms of barriers, we do have \u2014 as people from a non-English background a barrier. For people to understand the services and also for the services providers to understand the people who need the services. So these are the key barriers facing people. So one way we\u2019re trying to break that barrier and make the communication between the two groups easy.\nAll right. Hello.\nLAUREN HENLEY:\nHi, better late than never.\nMELISSA: COE\nEverybody, this is Lauren Henley, who is here to talk about the My Aged Scare Campaign. Lauren, tell us about the campaign and what are the biggest issues for this group right now in light of the new scheme and NDIS.\nFirstly I will do my awkward blindy thing and find out where the microphone is\u2026\nThe My Aged Scare Campaign aims to advocate for equality of support force older People with Disability who are ineligible for the NDIS and aims to provide information and peer support to older People with Disability who are ineligible for the NDIS.\nMost people would be aware by now that if you are 65 years of age or older when the NDIS rolls out in your area you won\u2019t actually be eligible for the scheme. If you are already a scheme participant, before you turn 65, then when you turn 65 you can choose to remain in the scheme if you like. This is causing a few different issues.\nOver 65s were told initially when talking about an NDIS several years ago, that they would get the same level of support through the aged care sector but it\u2019s not happening. There are a lot of issues. The largest one is access to information about what the arrangements actually look like. The government has injected millions of dollars into projects that are designed to let people know what the NDIS is, how it operates and how people can get the support they need, but there has not really been the same focus on the needs of older people with disability.\nPeople are confused about how to get the support they need and they don\u2019t really know what their rights are or where to go to complain when their rights are not being upheld. For example, one of the biggest differences between the NDIS and aged care system is the level of co-payment. So you don\u2019t make any financial contribution towards your care and support need if you are under 65 and in the NDIS. If you are accessing support through the aged care system you are expected to make a co-payment towards your care and support needs.\nThere are protections in place to ensure that people can get what they need regardless of their financial situation, but the aged care space is so new to both people with disability as well as specialist disability service providers that we are seeing things go really, really wrong. We need to indicate to consumers about their rights so they can recognise when things are not going the way they should and act accordingly. There are also some work force issues that relate to the medicalised model of aged care services.\nAged care services are not really underpinned by the same social model of disability that underpins the NDIS and we are seeing a lot of problems resulting from the fact that staff across the aged care sector do not have the same level of awareness of the specialist needs of people with lifelong and severe disability.\nThe other thing I will mention is the waiting list. We have had people on a waiting list for the aged care system for 12 months and over. Whereas with the NDIS typically it\u2019s a three month turn around from when you apply for the scheme to when you get your supports in place. They are some of the major issues I can highlight at the moment but happy to take questions on that later.\nLauren again, what needs to happen for your group to access services outside the NDIS and what are the barriers to making this happen?\nLook, I think there is a whole heap of things we could talk about here. It\u2019s really inequitable.\nWhen we talked about the NDIS back when the Productivity Commission was reporting in 2011, they said an NDIS was supposed to cover the needs of people whose disability was not acquired through the ageing process. So if you acquire a disability after the age of 65 it makes sense to me you should have your needs met through the aged care system. But if you were born with or acquired a disability early in life your needs are very different and the way you view yourself as a person with disability, is very different from someone who has lived a life without disability, turns 65 and then happens to acquire an age related condition after 65.\nSo I think there is some systemic work that needs to be done there and the Disability Discrimination Commissioner is backing that at the moment along with the age discrimination Commissioner at the national level which is fantastic. But in the meantime I think it really is around educating people about their individual rights, making sure that advocates across the sector know where to go when people\u2019s rights are not being upheld and really trying to lift the quality of staff training across the aged care sector.\nThere is a review happening at the moment around aged care legislation. People can have a say around what needs to change in that space and the work force strategy is one element of what they\u2019re looking at. I think the consultation period closes on 4 December. If anyone is keen to make a submission, please do.\nOkay. A question for all of you. We will start with Simone first: what can advocates do for their clients if they have been told their client is not eligible for the NDIS and needs services\nSo support their client and appeal eligibility. Because it\u2019s a new scheme especially in the beginning stages we need to make sure they\u2019re getting it right especially if they are trying to limit their spending and to reapply and appeal.\nIt\u2019s a little bit hard for me to answer that question really, I think we don\u2019t provide a service but we are strongly aligned with advocacy work.\nI want to add to that.\nIf a client comes to you needing medical interpreting and they are over 65 and they can\u2019t access it because of the way the NABs is going how would you approach that issue?\nOkay. Well, I know that NABs is committed to the interpreter provision for the next 12 months. Vicdeaf have also agreed to support those in the aged group of over 65. I can\u2019t actually provide the interpreting service of course but I can help people advocate for ensuring that the provision occurs. So really NDIS changes the system and really it\u2019s the system that needs repairing.\nI guess there are two goals here, The ones that are not eligible, do not meet the eligibility requirements. So with those people we are trying to help them with other organisations still providing services outside of the NDIS. But because the whole system where we are in Preston, it\u2019s a few months ago, and so far we have done around 15 NDIS, So we help them with the planning. Most of them were okay but last week we did receive two internal referrals of someone whose NDIS has been rejected.\nTo be honest, because the whole NDIS system is new, I personally referred one person to a contact of social security and probably they are going to contact them. If not they are going to call us back. So what we\u2019re trying to do, if someone is rejected, we have processes there, but we try to refer to people that can help.\nIt really depends on people\u2019s individual situation. Firstly, if someone narrowly misses out on entering into the NDIS because of their age \u2014 say for example if they turn 65 in the same calendar year that the NDIS is rolled out in their area there are early access provisions that may still allow that person to get into the NDIS.\nThe legislation is incredibly confusing, though so it may take a policy wonk to work through that in detail, and it is different in each state and territory. Firstly, if you have a client that you think fits within that criteria, may have turned 65 in the same calendar year I would encourage you to explore that further. The next thing, if your client is not already receiving services your best bet would be to try to support them to access specialised state disability support through state programs.\nBut because some of these programs are now folding because of the introduction of the NDIS you might still end up going the aged care route. If that happens make sure you know how the rules of co-payment apply and make sure you can go in and bat for your client around the co-payments to make sure they\u2019re not going to be financially disadvantaged.\nYou can also assist them to access a hardship supplement if needed if they can\u2019t actually pay for those co-payments. There is some information on the My Aged Scare Campaign website. There\u2019s a page that is called \u2018your rights regarding co-payments\u2019. You can check it out. It will tell you what the basic daily fees are, how the negotiation around co-payment actually works. That may be a good starting point in that regard.\nSo next, if your client has a problem with an aged care service you can try to resolve it with a service provider. You can refer them to an aged care advocacy service. The one that operates in Victoria is elder rights advocacy. Or you can support them to lodge a complaint with the disability services Commissioner.\nIf you still don\u2019t get a satisfactory outcome with that process you can lodge a complaint with the Commonwealth Ombudsman. So if your client is already receiving services they should still receive support.\nThe Department of Health is rolling out a new program called the Commonwealth continuity of support program. It\u2019s a back of house arrangement. That means your client should not need to do anything to enter the program. It should just happen automatically. There are some providers that won\u2019t be registered to provide supports under the Commonwealth continuity of support program, so if your client service happens to be one of them, it\u2019s possible they may have to find a new service.\nThe Commonwealth continuity of support program does not kick off properly until next year. It\u2019s similar to the NDIS in regards to how it\u2019s rolling out, it will happen progressively over the next three years. Because of that, there is still quite a lot of unknowns. What I would suggest is people really need to monitor the support they are receiving and if it changes they should seek advocacy support or perhaps take it up with the Department of Health because the government has always promised that nobody would be worse off under the new arrangements. We really need to make sure we hold them accountable for that.\nWe have about half an hour for questions. Fantastic. Can I please have a volunteer to run the microphone before we start? So raise your hand if you would like to ask a question to any of the panellists. Matthew?\nI have a question for Alpha. You mentioned that in your organisation \u2014 is interpreting part of the service at the moment?\nInterpreting?\nLook, we also provide interpreting services but I just don\u2019t know the details, how that works, but I\u2019m pretty sure that we use the standard interpreting services. But ADEC, I know, provides interpreting services. Even we were trained, for example I can translate from English to African language, my language. But there is a person that is responsible for that interpreting services is part of the services we have. I\u2019m just not sure how that works or how the bookings are done.\nHi. It\u2019s Robyn Gaile from AFDO, Australian Federation of disability organisations. This question might slightly be out of scope but I may as well ask it.\nWhen the NDIS was in its trial phase there was a program that enabled clients who had a complaint with the NDIS, once they\u2019ve got a plan in place, and that program is called the external merits review program. Does anybody know if that program is now part of the full scheme?\nYes, so my understanding is, yes, it is part of the full scheme. There is a different advocacy organisation or a couple in some states or Territories being funded to do external merits review. It can just be as simple as someone going along to an administrative appeals tribunal hearing with an individual or in some cases it can be more formalised legal assistance with a case. In Victoria it\u2019s Rights Information Advocacy Services.\nI think there was going to be an announcement in October regarding what the arrangements were for the broader roll out, I\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s actually happened, but, yes, the external merits review component is going ahead. They have changed the name of it and I can\u2019t remember what they changed it to, but it is still there, it\u2019s the same thing.\nSo if you turn 65 after your NDIS assessment would that matter?\nNo, because,well I would suggest not, because if you are having the assessment then you are already deemed eligible for the scheme. I would assume you would still get in. There are early access provisions that I was talking about as well. If you only narrowly miss out because of the fact you are turning 65 that calendar year, you should still get in.\nI\u2019m not sure who to address the question to on the panel, but in our transition to NDIS \u2014 we were informed that HACC services were no longer available to people that were eligible for the NDIS. So there are a few questions. Does that mean if you put an application in and you get knocked back, does that mean you are then eligible or not eligible? And it\u2019s just total confusion whether we put an application in and have not got our funding, whether we still get our HACC services from our local council. So I don\u2019t know which panel member would be able to talk about that.\nLook, I have been doing a bit of scoping, mostly in New South Wales, so I\u2019m not sure if the arrangements here will be the same in Victoria. But in New South Wales I know the state based arrangements will be in place for anyone who, for whatever reason, can\u2019t access the NDIS but needs that support.\nI have had conversations with Victorian agencies and they don\u2019t seem to be able to give me a conclusive answer or, more to the point, they don\u2019t want to. But I will monitor that and if at any point things change \u2014 as I said, you are meant to be eligible for this continuity of support arrangement. If you are getting specific disability services now, if you have access to those services now, I wouldn\u2019t expect that should change. If it does then I would encourage you to speak to someone about it as soon as possible or look into it further.\nHi, it\u2019s WInnie from Children and Young People with Disability Australia. One of the pieces of information that I think it\u2019s got on the NDIS website and various other places around when people are not eligible for the scheme is to get in touch with their local area coordinator if the scheme is rolled out in their particular area. I was wondering if the panel has any comments, feedback or thoughts around that process and how that system is set up for people who are not eligible for the NDIS.\nhappy to speak to that.\nIt\u2019s a bit haphazard at the moment. Local area coordinators are meant to be responsible for a very wide range of things. Part of their job is making sure that the needs of people, who for some reason are not eligible for an individually funded package under the NDIS, are still met, So connecting them up with other services.\nWhat we\u2019re starting to see happen in the roll out sites though is because the NDIA itself is just really being swamped with requests and assessments and plans and all those things, they have been outsourcing the planning to the local area coordination agencies. And local area coordinators at this point in time really don\u2019t have time to do anything apart from assist people with developing the NDIS plan.\nSo while in the future hopefully they will be a really good point of contact for any person with disability, regardless of whether or not they are eligible for an individually funded package to go and make sure they can get the information and support they need, that is not really happening now.\nThere was a question over here.\nIn the most recent quarterly report from the agency they spoke about \u2014 in rounded off numbers it was around about 3,000 people were assessed as not being eligible for the NDIS. In part Lauren has kind of answered my question. But I thought maybe we could explore it a little bit more. So 3,000 people is a lot of people. That is people who are in a region where the NDIS is currently rolled out who have actually put up their hand to have an assessment. In terms of numbers of actual People with Disability who may or may not be eligible, it could be even greater than that number.\nYou have all spoken a little bit about providing information to people about what their rights are in the event that they are deemed ineligible. But could we just speak about that a bit more. I\u2019m particularly keen to hear from Simone. As you are saying, with people with mental health conditions it\u2019s not like you plan, well, hey, I\u2019m gonna have an episode next week.\nAnd when you are going through an episode of mental health the last thing you are thinking about is, \u201cHmm, so how do I plan for this to be better next time?\u201d You can just talk a little bit more about how and when you engage with people so that especially in the event of them being deemed ineligible but they still have a condition that needs some supports?\nI think we look at that case by case. When someone is unwell they obviously need support. It is a problem that they won\u2019t be able to hopefully get their plan reviewed every 12 months and in episodic episodes \u2014 they will need it obviously more. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019m answering your question properly, though. No, sorry.\nBecause I know that VMIAC is already overrun doing your work regardless of any NDIS issues. So where do people go? How can we ensure that people just are not staying locked up at home or out on the streets not getting the support that they need?\nGood question. VMIAC \u2014 we are obviously a small organisation. We are ensuring that we provide services and advocates and education around the NDIS. The mental health is not being rolled out into the north eastern suburbs until May next year. So we are really probably not going to see the full extent of that until then.\nSo, I\u2019m finding it hard to not feel bleak. For people who are either experiencing mental ill health or people who are deemed ineligible, if they\u2019re not able to go to LACS because they are overrun, and we are in a state of, I don\u2019t want to use the word \u201cchaos\u201d, but disarray, those 3,000 people +, what can we, as in the disability advocacy sector, what can we be doing right now to support them?\nFor us as I mentioned before, the process \u2026 from last week we did receive a few calls from people, their application had been rejected. And now we are just trying to work out \u2014 on the NDIS website there is a standard process for an appeal. But I know also there are people that are more specialised, like with social security issues. I\u2019m waiting for them to tell us what would happen if someone\u2019s application is rejected. For those who are not eligible, depending as you mentioned on case to case. But in some way or another they must be receiving some services at the moment.\nBut the only worry is that the services may not be long term services. So that is a case of current anxiety. But I think all of these problems \u2014 like after six months or one year we will have 4,000 or 5,000 people with a disability who have a need and there is no solution \u2026\nI wonder as well if we need to push the envelope a bit with the local area coordinators. I understand they are overrun but if you look at the ILC policy framework that establishes what they are meant to do, there is specific wording around there that they are meant to provide one-off or low-cost access to services and support especially if it\u2019s for early intervention. Or if not providing that support would have some catastrophic effect on the individual.\nSo we need to be having a conversation with the LAC, if someone is not eligible for an individually funded package can we send to you and how can you help them. It says in the policy document that you will help them so what does that actually look like in practice.\nIt\u2019s Kathy here. I just wanted to know what the group thought about health services like the Australian Unity and Mercy Health entering the NDIS support space.\nWho would like to answer that one?\nSo was it about the organisations that are doing local area coordination specifically?\nNo. The private health providers like Australian Unity. We\u2019re talking about not eligible for NDIS., I mean, does anybody have a view as to what the future holds for those organisations moving into the space?\n(everyone shaking their heads, no)\nMaybe somebody else in the room? No? Oh well we\u2019ll just have to see how it goes\u2026\nI suppose it\u2019s probably more of a comment. But it could be a question, yes. Well, Melissa, I\u2019m an advocate from Gippsland Disability Advocacy Service. Just listening to the panels\u2019 conversation, our area we have not received the NDIS. It has not come to Gippsland till September-October next year, so we still have a fair way to go.\nIn the meantime, there are so many questions unanswered. From the diverse people that access our service, some of those questions we cannot answer. We just answer by listening to other areas where the NDIS has already rolled through. One of the areas that comes up is always, \u201cWhat if I\u2019m not qualified for the NDIS? What will happen to my support service?\u201d\nAlso, we hear of a lot that we should not be talking too much to other people, and we are given tips. So we\u2019re trying to prepare our client for it, I just want to ask the panel, would they have any tips or anything in preparation for us, for areas like us, where we are still waiting, in preparation for it, so we can better prepare the client, the people that come to us.\nWe often hear, they say, \u201cGet your clients to have everything in order. Be ready to apply.\u201d And have those things in place. When they do get the NDIS, it can be activated straightaway and if they don\u2019t have those other things in place, then there might be some disappointment, because it takes time to put those things in place. I would just ask the panel if you have any suggestions or any tips for us in preparation towards it.\nI\u2019m happy to answer that question. One tip I have is keep asking questions, keep talking to organisations who have experience with applications and have experienced the NDIS. Or the NDIA. Keep talking to people. Sometimes when you contact the agency itself people don\u2019t know the answer to our questions. So keep asking questions. Over time you will find answers.\nI have been fortunate enough to live in north east of Melbourne which means I\u2019m eligible for funding myself, so I\u2019m currently going through the process of receiving funding, as well as educating people about how to access the funding and the packages. As well as talking to people who have experience and what funding may have been allocated and what things they have got from their package.\nSo I think it\u2019s a continual learning process and continual discussions need to be had. I have certainly spoken to people who have been successful in their applications and then I am also experienced in that process. So keep having conversations with all of those groups and of course the agency itself. Keep talking. That\u2019s my number 1 tip. Keep the conversation going\nI have received a few questions from our viewers.\nhave one for you. I totally agree. But one thing is for those who have a diagnosed disability, try to put a DSR with the department. So their applications get approved before the NDIS rolls out in your area. If you have a DSR then it\u2019s much easier for you just to rollover. Just concentrate on your plans, to get the documentation to put the DSR properly. That\u2019s the easy way, yes?\nYes. My only comment is around the NDIS is making sure people know what their rights are. For example if they don\u2019t have all of their paperwork in order and they get a phone call saying we want to do your planning meeting they are perfectly within their rights to say I\u2019m not ready can we delay it a few weeks, that\u2019s fine.\nIf they would prefer to do that face to face they can also do that. If they are not getting along with the planner they can ask for a new one. Making sure your clients are clear on what their rights are before they go into the process. For people who are ineligible I would encourage them to start talking to service providers now. About I\u2019m over 65 and I won\u2019t be eligible for whatever reason, what you can do to make sure I can still get the same level of support.\nIf people are getting a sense that the support may actually change, then that\u2019s the time when you need to start looking at things at a national level and talk to the Department of Health about this continuity of support thing. Because if it\u2019s not happening we need to make sure we fight that. Because no-one is meant to be worse off. That\u2019s the bottom line.\nOkay. We have received some questions from people watching on the live stream.\nOne questioner said we are experiencing DHSS informing us that nothing will be offered until the NDIS rolls out. Our local region does not roll out until 2018. What can we do for our clients to ensure that they are receiving services until then?\nThat one is a really tricky one and one I had not really thought through, to be honest. It\u2019s not something I have an answer to today. It causes me quite a lot of concern. I think, as a sector we, need to be looking to find an answer to that.\nThe other one I received: How about all of the families providing support that now want help and are told to wait? What about the DHHS saying nothing will happen between now and roll out and to wait for the NDIS? People are missing out.\nI know that there are early access provisions for other people, not just aged care. If it can be shown that that person really needs support and if they don\u2019t get that support certain amount of time, then there will be quite significant results, I think, yes, there are early access provisions for people in those situations to say they can get into the scheme early. I don\u2019t know the ins and outs of how that is actually being applied. There is a lot of policy that sits around that.\nWhat is frustrating is there doesn\u2019t seem to be any point of contact that can answer those questions around the early access provisions and how to make it work for your clients, because the NDIA, to my knowledge, does not appear to have the answers. We need to try to find out what the answers are. People should not be falling through the cracks.\nThere are early access provisions there for that reason so that the people who need the scheme the most can actually get the support when they need it.\nI just wanted to add to that\nBecause we have been helping people go through early access and we\u2019re having the same challenges of finding out where that point of contact is, but it\u2019s DHHS who have the final call. But the person needs to have a priority wait listed DSR. So we are encouraging people outside of NDIS to call up constantly to get their DSRs currently wait listed so that if it rolls out in other regions hopefully they will get put forward first. But, yes, those priority wait listed ones that are coming through now.\nThis is Judy Smith, I work for Grampians Advocacy which is rurally based and has its geographic challenges that I\u2019m sure many others will share. I have also been a teacher for decades. In this entire process regarding the beginnings of something such as the NDIS, it has been absolutely astounding. This is exactly how you don\u2019t teach people how to do things. It\u2019s where you start off with a trialling process and then there is no absolute model that has been developed as a result.\nInterestingly, we have been observed internationally as to how we\u2019re setting this in place. Yet it\u2019s not even trickle down. I don\u2019t even believe we necessarily have a model at the top that says let\u2019s go in this direction. When I walk into my classroom of people who want to be future lawyers, teachers, politicians or jail birds, whatever it may be, how do you teach on that basis? To me it is anything that you don\u2019t do. You don\u2019t tell them to trial it. You want them to learn maths you don\u2019t tell them to go out and play with a few things until they come up with a theory.\nHere we are. I\u2019m an advocate and I have challenges that include rurality where they can\u2019t access medical attention and can\u2019t get transport and people are too unwell. So at the moment people are wanting things such as face to face and are told to come to Melbourne. Are you real? It\u2019s not going to happen.\nAs an advocate what is it I want to be told to do, want to be directed to do? I want a really clear set of objectives from my people. I spend time and talk to my people. What do you want to do? What do you want to do in three months, six months, five years, whatever it may be. One part of my working area is already in the NDIS.\nAnother part is about to come into it in January. Another part will move into it in October. So it\u2019s like a set of steps.\nThere are even cases where people are moving geographically to ensure people can access it earlier if they move from one town to another. But where does that leave us?\nInevitably it leaves us in a situation where it\u2019s all trial and error for us as well. It\u2019s trial and error for us because we don\u2019t have direction from the top as to exactly how to do these things.\nWe will do things like equip our people with \u2014 carry around an exercise book or some sort of notation device where you write down every contact you have had, every reference number from every phone call and get all of your notes in order, et cetera. I\u2019m sure we\u2019re all good at doing that.\nHowever, what do we then do with them? One of the things I\u2019m looking at is currently I\u2019m across the three areas I work in is employment of the LACs and their staff. The enormity of the responsibility as has been mentioned earlier here by a panel member \u2014 is just overwhelming. Not only are they setting this entire process in progression but dealing with the ramifications of it and trying to set up an alternative program for them as well.\nOne of the calls is should we be looking at some sort of review on the LAC or should we be running a dual program? So we don\u2019t only have the LACs that take us into the NDIS but also there is run a partnership program for those who fall in the cracks. I know we will be employing certain organisations to take people into the appeal process.\nSo there are three levels. Those who are in clearly. Those who are in the system, perhaps in the appeal system. And those who have clearly missed out. To me there are three prongs to this. I don\u2019t believe we are getting the directions as to what we do with the three prongs because the responsibility for this is being hand balled out into different areas.\nIt\u2019s a bit like the conversation from this morning about housing. When you have 40 different organisations who are looking into how you house our people in Victoria. It\u2019s me running on a very similar basis. You split up the job into so many different areas nobody knows what the other person is doing.\nOn the positive side \u2014 we certainly have the moral compass and our direction. There would have been a smile on every face when the NDIS was given the thumbs up. But ultimately it comes down to money. We can have all of the positive statements and enthusiastic advocates we like but ultimately it will be the dollar sign. So 3,000 people are missing out.\nI think we have to be clear on why they are missing out. Are they missing out because they don\u2019t have the medical evidence there? They don\u2019t have the disabilities or there is simply not enough money? So again amongst our questioning and I guess I have thrown a whole fruit salad into the discussion but it\u2019s how I\u2019m trying to perceive it em it. I\u2019m trying to sort out how I take my people through this. I don\u2019t have any immediate answers except that as has been mentioned earlier it is a case by case. But we will be dealing with tens of thousands of people.\nTherefore I would like, if we have any capacity whatsoever, to be able to call upon even just reconfiguration of either who do we contact in case of and have a clear listing of that. Do we re-evaluate the roles being offered to the LACs? I simply don\u2019t know how humans can actually do what it is they are being asked to cover at any given time. I don\u2019t care what the money is. They are not being overly generously paid as far as I\u2019m concerned, either.\nThe other one is, when we sit down \u2014 and we are just face to face with our own people and what it is that we tell them, to me there has to be some way of bringing this altogether and it is not clear at the moment. So my people \u2026 they will be coming to me on the phone and coming to me in the office. They will have pieces of paper and have their folders where they have been saving evidence for 10, 15, 20 years. Factor into that the fact some people will be going into their 60s and 70s and there is angst all round not only from the clients but also the people who work in the sector.\nI guess all I could say is I reckon we should stay strong but I think we need to be questioning the role division that is currently being enacted within the NDIS and is it absolutely feasible? Because it\u2019s no use us continuing with a charade where you \u2014 when it is simply not workable.\nWe have really good people here, we have the moral compass in the right direction, we have some funding, but is it time we need to be questioning who is ultimately making these decisions? And how do the people on the ground actually direct our people to get the services that they need?\nThank you for articulating that so well. I really love your idea in terms of restructuring the LACs bBecause I think the key problem for the over 65s as I have identified is information.\nThere is a clear communication strategy around the NDIS, what it is, how it works. There is no communication strategy in terms of what you do if you fall outside that. People are so confused and so scared. They have no idea where to go. At least if there was a separate little department that people could go to that actually dealt with those cases, that would help immensely.\nThe whole reason the my aged scare campaign came about was because people were freaked out. They didn\u2019t know anything. They had no idea where to turn. We still don\u2019t have all of the answers. I\u2019m only one individual. Trying to sort out my way through this information as best I can. I am not a lawyer. I don\u2019t know the ins and outs of the legislation and the government is making it really, really hard.\n?ALPHA LASIMBA:\nI just have a question. You know \u2026 people missing out, are they not those who are eligible or their applications, were they rejected? Are they in Victoria or in a specific area, the people that are missing out?\nThey are rurally based, they are under informed, because we are within the NDIS, we are employing people to go around and inform. The problem is these people will go out and they will inform but what they have to tell people is so limited. They can\u2019t, a bit like all of us, they can\u2019t answer all of the questions. In some cases they are sending people out into especially rural areas and they will be the only access to information. Yet what they carry with them is so incredibly limited. Not because they don\u2019t want to try and tell it but simply because of the amount of information trickling down from the top.\nTherefore we go into the area of misinformation and guessing and making assumptions. To answer your question I believe it\u2019s the lack of information in the first place. I also believe it\u2019s the lack of medical evidence in some cases because of the rural factor.\nYou are either waiting for nine month for an appointment from the only surgeon who might visit that part of Victoria or trying to get into something like in particular a clinical psychologist. How many of them grow in the country? Usually \u2014 bring them on. But if they are there, God bless their hearts. But they will have a waiting list that is at least six months long.\nTo answer that, I think there are at least three different reasons. I think it\u2019s the lack of information. I think it\u2019s the lack of medical evidence to back up their claim. Thirdly, I think in many cases it is the make do and thinking I\u2019m going to wait until they get all of this sorted out type of syndrome.\nWe have another question/comment from one of our viewers. People have been contacting DHHS to register on DSR but are being told they cannot register. A person I know was supposed to transfer a current package from New South Wales to Victoria but told she can\u2019t.\nHas that case been put to the minister for disabilities? I know that office is keen to hear about the people falling through the cracks. I wonder if it\u2019s been taken to that level yet,\njust to ask the question what are you planning to do with these people that can\u2019t get an mid package for another two years or whatever but really need support now. I would encourage people to do that and write letters to the minister where possible and try and get some answers that way.\nDo we have any more questions before we break for afternoon tea? Nothing? Okay. Thank you. We will have afternoon tea for half an hour. We will be back at 2.20 to start the presentation on DSP. Thank you.",

        "title": "\u5403\u559d\u73a9\u6a02 - Diary of a Growing Boy: Back to Kazakhstan day 5: Aral Sea",
        "raw_content": "On my last trip to Kazakhstan back in 2008, there were two places I did not get to visit due to time constraints... and they later became itches that needed scratching. One was Baikonur Cosmodrome, and the other was the Aral Sea. I would manage to scratch both of them on this trip.\nThe Aral Sea is one of the biggest man-made environmental disasters in the world, thanks to the Soviets who decided to divert rivers feeding the lake to irrigate crops such as cotton - one of the most water-hungry crops that require between 8,000 - 20,000 liters of water to produce 1 kg. So, after decades of being starved of water, the Aral Sea began shrinking in a vicious cycle. As the remaining water evaporated, the salinity of the lake increased, and life in the lake began to disappear. The Aral Sea is now a mere fraction of its former self.\nWhen I made the decision to come to Baikonur, I realized that Aral is really not that far away. So I made arrangements to extend my trip and spend an extra day touring the Aral Sea. I wasn't gonna come to Kazakhstan a second time and leave without visiting the Aral Sea when I was gonna be within 250 km of it.\nWe left Hotel No. 1 at Site 2 in Baikonur Cosmodrome before 5 a.m., so that Stuart and I could be dropped off at Turyatam Station while some of the others were driven back to Kyzylorda. We were booked on the 6:07 a.m. train from Tyuratam (\u0422\u044e\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0430\u043c) to Aral Sea (\u0410\u0420\u0410\u041b \u041c\u041e\u0420\u0415). While I couldn't read the electronic ticket I received as it was written in Cyrillic, I did manage to catch that the 4-hour train ride cost the staggering sum of 969 Tenge - roughly USD 3. In the back of my mind, I had a suspicion that this wasn't gonna be a train ride I was gonna enjoy...\nA post shared by Diary of a Growing Boy (@growing_boy) on Aug 3, 2017 at 9:06am PDT\nThe train rolled in to the station on time, and as Stuart and I headed to find our carriage, I started to get a whiff of the smell coming from the train. This was not gonna be good!\nIt got worse once we got on the train. This was a sleeper train with 3 levels of bunks stacked vertically, and pretty packed in. I don't know how long the Kazakhs who were asleep at this hour have been on the train, but the poor ventilation wasn't helping. The conductor led us to the bunks that had been booked for us, and I wasn't surprised to find other people sleeping in them. Our conductor shook and slapped the squatters to wake them up, and they reluctantly got off to find somewhere else to sleep...\nThis was not at all what I had signed up for. When I went to India back in 2007, there was no way in hell that I would ride on an Indian train. So I paid a few hundred U.S. Dollars to hire a hotel car from the Oberoi in New Delhi to drive me to the Oberoi Amarvilas in Agra. Now I'm on a smelly Kazakh train. In economy.\nI left my big luggage on the floor and lifted my big camera bag up to the middle bunk, then proceeded to climb up there myself. I pushed the mattress that was still warm with someone else's body heat to one end, used my camera bag as my pillow, and tried to find a comfortable position for the next four hours.\nThe windows were tied with strips of cloth so that they were partially open and allow for some ventilation, but the smell was still overwhelming. I decided to pop mints into my mouth at periodic intervals for the duration of the ride.\nSome four hours and many mints later, we arrived at Aral Sea Station. Our guide Serik Dyussenbayev picked us up and we started our long drive to the Aral Sea right away.\nSerik decided to take the \"short cut\", which meant driving on the dried out lake bed. This was, of course, exactly the experience we were looking for.\nOur first stop was the ruins of an old processing plant for fish. The local fishermen used to bring in their catch on their boats, but nowadays this place has become a salt bed.\nI guess it hasn't completely dried out here, since we were able to leave footprints in the wet top layer. And then there's this tire that has been partially buried... We also see tiny shells from bivalves scattered around.\nWe continue our drive on the vast lake bed, seeing cliffs in the distance which once represented the shoreline. We run into the occasional group of camels, horses, and cattle on the way.\nEventually we reach Zhalanash (\u0416\u0430\u043b\u0430\u043d\u0430\u0448), a fishing village. The fishermen here used to have their own boats nearby and when the water dried up, they were stranded in what was known as the 'ship cemetary'. Up until a couple of years ago there were still three ships on the lake bed near the village for visitors to see. They are all gone now, taken apart by scavengers after scrap metal. The only sign that the ships ever existed was just a small chunk of scrap near the road when we passed by.\nWe continued driving for a while until we reached the Karasandyk Canyons. The terrain here looks like a mix of Monument Valley in the US and Wadi Rum in Jordan.\nThe scenery was so stunning that I finally took my drone out for a spin, flying it up above the top of the rocks and also getting a view of the Aral Sea from up high.\nMy very first flight in Kazakhstan!\nIt was time to find ourselves some ships, so we drove to an area near Aqespe. For the first time today, we come face to face with a grounded ship, just meters from the water. Stuart and I were so excited, and we walked over to the ship right away.\nThere was plenty of vegetation by the water, and as I bent down to snap pictures, I suddenly realized that I recognized a particular species... It was salicornia! I had first tasted it on a plate at Amber. And it made perfect sense that I found it here, because it grows on the shores of salt lakes. I immediately posted my finding on Twitter and informed Chef Richard Ekkebus - who jokingly suggested that I bring back a supply for him.\nIt's obvious that scavengers have been here, but the ship's hull was largely intact. I walked around the ship, occasionally sticking my head inside for a peek. All the while enjoying the breeze coming in along with calm, lapping waves. There was no one here but us, and I was loving the feeling of solitude, the realization that I was in the middle of nowhere.\n46\u00b045'23\" N, 60\u00b044'11\" E to be exact.\nThere are more ships for us to look at, so we move along the coastline until we reach an even more spectacular sight. This time we found one with a twisted hull, sitting in shallow water.\nI send the drone up in the air once again, and the images I see on my screen are nothing short of stunning.\n46\u00b045'21.8\" N, 60\u00b042'29.7\" E\nThere was one final ship we had to see, and this turned out to be the largest of the three.\nWe found a group of locals having a picnic here, and they very kindly invited us to share in their food. We graciously accepted their offerings, and they all wanted a picture with Stuart.\nWe had been out for a long time, so we figured that we should probably head back to town. Taking the \"short cut\" on the way back turned out to be more challenging than coming in, so Serik decided to turn towards the main road - which, while not completely smooth from a layer of asphalt, was at least paved with gravel. I'm sure Serik was happy that he didn't have to wrestle with the steering wheel of the 4WD once we got onto this section of the road...\nSerik had arranged for a homestay for me overnight, and I was hosted by Gulmira. After Stuart and I cleaned up, she served us our dinner - our first proper meal of the day. Not surprisingly, we started with a salad of tomato, cucumber, green peppers, and carrots. The vinegar delivered some good acidity to whet our appetites.\nGulmira had also prepared some deep-fried fish with potatoes for us. Here we have carp and bream, served with shredded carrots and onions on top. I could see Stuart having a little trouble with the bones, but even I - who grew up eating very bony freshwater fish - had to slow down and take time to remove all the bones.\nWhen he's not busy guiding tourists around the area in the summer, Serik works part-time for Aral Tenizi - an NGO helping to revive the local fishing industry. He told us that in the past the water of the Aral Sea was so salty that only flounders were able to survive. After the Kok-Aral Dam was built in 2005, the surface area of the Aral Sea expanded significantly and water salinity reduced over time. Nowadays some 15 different types of freshwater fish can be found in the water, while flounders are finding it difficult to survive in the freshwater environment.\nStuart needed to catch an overnight train back to Kyzylorda, so I bid him farewell and retired for the night. It's been a very long day...\nLabels: Aral, Baikonur, Cuisine - Kazakh, Dining, Droning Boy, Kazakhstan, Travel, Videos",

At first, international objectives, as expressed by the six-nation Contact Group and the U.N. Security Council, were limited to seeking a cease-fire in the province, ending the repression of the Kosovo civilian population by Serb forces and improving the humanitarian situation, and facilitating a political dialogue between the parties. As fighting continued, the United States pressed for NATO to threaten punitive air strikes in order to achieve compliance with U.N. demands. The Contact Group became more involved with the possible terms of a political settlement. In early 1999, the Contact Group sought Serb and Kosovar Albanian acceptance of a detailed interim peace plan that would restore substantial autonomy to the Kosovo population while upholding Yugoslavia's territorial integrity.\nYugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic's rejection of the draft peace plan and his escalating use of force in Kosovo prompted NATO to launch a sustained air campaign, Operation Allied Force, against Serb targets throughout Yugoslavia beginning in March 1999. NATO leaders sought to deter Belgrade from a bloodier offensive in Kosovo and to damage Belgrade's military capacity. In response, however, Milosevic stepped up efforts to drive out the ethnic Albanian population from Kosovo, forcing hundreds of thousands of civilians across borders. NATO established five key conditions for Milosevic to meet before air strikes would end: an end to all military action in Kosovo; the withdrawal of Serb forces from Kosovo; agreement to the stationing of a NATO-led military presence in Kosovo; agreement to the return of all refugees; and, willingness to negotiate a political framework agreement for Kosovo. In June, Milosevic accepted a peace framework incorporating these demands, eventually leading to an end to the bombing campaign. U.S. and allied officials proclaimed victory for the operation and moved quickly toward a peacekeeping and peace implementation phase in Kosovo.\nU.S. and European objectives in Kosovo remained largely consistent, although some evolved in response to changing circumstances and met with varying degrees of success. In late 1998, the threat of air strikes achieved the objective of averting a humanitarian disaster, at least for a while. In 1999, however, NATO did not succeed in deterring the largest Serbian offensives to date during the course of the air campaign. The humanitarian situation in Kosovo is likely to improve substantially in the absence of violent conflict. The NATO operation achieved Belgrade's agreement to withdraw all of its forces from Kosovo, and the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army's commitment to de-militarize under NATO supervision. A NATO-led peacekeeping force, KFOR, has been deployed to Kosovo under unified command and control arrangements, with Russian participation. Contrary to some expectations, NATO countries generally remained unified behind the air operation, though were divided on other military options. The objective of attaining a durable political settlement in Kosovo remains elusive, but has been superceded to some extent by the establishment of a virtual U.N. protectorate for Kosovo.\nAfter 78 days, NATO ended its military air campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) on June 10, 1999, after Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic had accepted international principles for a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Kosovo. Kosovo, a southern province of Serbia (which, together with the much smaller Montenegro, forms the FRY) became engulfed in violent conflict in early 1998 as Serbian and Yugoslav forces sought to eliminate, through brutally repressive means, the separatist threat presented by armed ethnic Albanian rebels, the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). Denied their former autonomous rights since Milosevic's ascent to power in 1989 and 1990, the majority ethnic Albanian population has sought full independence for Kosovo. The international community has supported greater autonomy for the Kosovo population, but generally has not backed Kosovo's claim to independence. As the conflict wore on, the United States and European countries became increasingly engaged in efforts to resolve the conflict. Belgrade's rejection of an internationally-sponsored peace plan and refusal to accept a series of international demands led NATO to launch Operation Allied Force in late March 1999, striking Yugoslav military targets in Kosovo and throughout Yugoslavia.\nDuring the course of the air campaign, numerous commentators expressed doubt about the objectives, strategy, and conduct of the NATO operation. Some doubted that Milosevic would yield to western demands or ever cede control of Kosovo. Others urged NATO to prepare for a ground invasion of Yugoslavia in order to ensure victory. After its conclusion, President Clinton and other leaders of NATO countries proclaimed victory for Operation Allied Force, vindication of NATO's strategy, and a turning point for the civilian population of Kosovo. They claimed that all of NATO's objectives for the bombing campaign had been achieved. NATO shortly thereafter launched a peacekeeping operation in Kosovo, including forces from Russia and other non-NATO countries, in support of an emerging U.N. protectorate for the province. Some observers have questioned the claim of victory and the results of the NATO operation, in view of original objectives and continued uncertainties in Kosovo and Serbia.\nThis report provides an overview of stated U.S. and international policy objectives in Kosovo from 1998 through the end of the NATO air operation against Yugoslavia and passage of a Kosovo peace resolution by the U.N. Security Council in June 1999. It then analyzes the evolution of certain policy objectives according to theme. An appendix provides a list of relevant documents and speeches referred to throughout this report.(1)\nSustained violent conflict between Kosovar Albanian guerrillas and Serbian security forces began in late February 1998. The Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) attacked Serbian police and Yugoslav Army units that, for their part, targeted and brutally attacked known KLA strongholds and other villages throughout the province. During this time, Belgrade mobilized and reinforced army and police forces in the province, while hundreds of thousands of Kosovar civilians became displaced. In the spring and summer of 1998, the international Contact Group comprised of the United States, Russia, Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, convened frequently to address the Kosovo conflict. Citing their interests in restoring peace and security to the region, Contact Group countries agreed to support some incentives as well as limited sanctions intended to help resolve the conflict. Statements by the Contact Group criticized Belgrade's indiscriminate use of force and repressive actions, but did not challenge the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia's sovereignty over Kosovo. International objectives were to end the violence and to facilitate a political dialogue between the parties.\nOn March 31, 1998, the U.N. Security Council passed Resolution 1160, which imposed an arms embargo on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY), including Kosovo. It called on Belgrade to engage in negotiations on the political status of Kosovo with ethnic Albanian representatives. It called on the Kosovar Albanian leadership to condemn all terrorist activities. It said the restrictions could be lifted once Belgrade began a political dialogue with the Kosovar Albanian leadership, withdrew special police units from Kosovo, allowed access to Kosovo by humanitarian groups, and accepted a mission in Kosovo of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).\nLater in the year as fighting intensified, concerns grew about a looming humanitarian disaster. Fearing for the fate of hundreds of thousands of displaced Kosovar civilians as winter approached, the Contact Group countries pressed for further action. U.N. Resolution 1199, passed by the Security Council on September 23, 1998, demanded that the Yugoslav and Kosovar Albanian parties institute an immediate cease-fire, take steps to improve the humanitarian situation, and enter into a dialogue on a negotiated political solution. It made the following additional demands on Belgrade:\ncease all action by the security forces affecting the civilian population and order the withdrawal of security units used for civilian repression;\nallow access to Kosovo by international monitoring and diplomatic missions;\nfacilitate the return of all refugees and displaced persons and allow access for humanitarian aid organizations;\nmake progress to a clear timetable toward achieving a political dialogue with the Kosovar Albanian community.\nThe resolution also called on Yugoslavia and the Kosovar Albanian community to cooperate fully with investigations into war crimes in Kosovo by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). The resolution cited international concerns about the deteriorating humanitarian and human rights situation in Kosovo, and the flow of refugees to neighboring states. Citing Resolution 1199, NATO moved toward approving air strikes against the FRY unless it complied with the U.N. demands, although the resolution did not explicitly authorize the use of force to achieve compliance. The United States asserted that the resolution and the U.N. charter provided a sufficient legal basis for NATO air strikes, and NATO issued an \"activation order\" to authorize air strikes in October. President Clinton and other Administration officials said that the objective was to compel Milosevic's compliance with U.N. demands, by force if necessary.\nAt the last minute, NATO air strikes were averted by Milosevic's agreement to terms worked out after many sessions with U.S. envoy Richard Holbrooke. Milosevic agreed to comply with all provisions of U.N. Resolutions 1160 and 1199. He signed two subsequent agreements with NATO and the OSCE establishing unarmed air and ground verification missions, known as the Kosovo Verification Mission (KVM). In addition, the Serbian government issued a unilateral statement that offered new elections in Kosovo within nine months, to be supervised by the OSCE. NATO commanders concluded a deal with Milosevic that reportedly required him to withdraw 4,000-5,000 Yugoslav army and 4,000 Serbian special police units from Kosovo (out of a combined total of about 30,000). After verifying initial compliance with these terms, NATO suspended the activation order for air strikes but stood ready to reinstate it. In announcing news of the Holbrooke agreement on October 12, 1998, President Clinton stated that his objective was \"to end the violence in Kosovo which threatens to spill over into neighboring countries, and to spark instability in the heart of Europe,...to reverse a humanitarian catastrophe in the making,...and to seek a negotiated peace.\"\nWith the agreement, Holbrooke obtained Milosevic's commitment to adhere to U.N. demands for the first time. The presence in Kosovo of over 1,000 international verifiers of the Holbrooke agreements and many humanitarian organizations facilitated the delivery of aid to the province, preventing widespread starvation of displaced persons. However, compliance broke down almost immediately with numerous violations of the cease-fire by both the Serb and Kosovar sides, according to reports by the OSCE verification mission. After initially withdrawing some forces in accordance with NATO demands, Belgrade sent additional army and police units to Kosovo in apparent preparation for a major offensive, without NATO retaliation. Moreover, little progress was made toward achieving a political settlement through the shuttle diplomacy efforts of U.S. envoy Chris Hill. By January 1999, compliance with the cease-fire was practically non-existent. The January 15 massacre of 45 Kosovar Albanian civilians in Racak(2) elicited widespread international outrage and sparked renewed diplomatic efforts to try to resolve the conflict. At a January 29 meeting, the Contact Group summoned Yugoslav and Kosovar parties to negotiations on a political settlement in Rambouillet, France. The goal was to achieve agreement, within a short deadline, on an internationally-sponsored settlement providing \"substantial autonomy\" for Kosovo, to be secured with the deployment in Kosovo of an international security force.\nOn February 6, peace talks opened at Rambouillet, sponsored by France and Britain and led by U.S., EU, and Russian negotiators. In a speech prior to the opening of the talks, Secretary of State Albright stated that the aim was to establish a \"durable and fair interim agreement that will create a peaceful political framework for Kosovo while deferring the question of Kosovo's status for several years.\" Albright warned both parties that this diplomatic effort was backed by the threat of military action by NATO. NATO also prepared to embark on a peacekeeping mission if a political framework agreement were reached.\nNegotiators circulated a draft Interim Agreement for Peace and Self-Government in Kosovo. The lengthy document proposed establishing a system of democratic self-government for Kosovo while upholding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the FRY. Elections would be held in Kosovo within nine months. Human rights of all citizens in Kosovo would be guaranteed. The agreement called for outside involvement with the presence of international civil and military missions. It invited NATO to deploy a military force to ensure compliance and provide a secure environment, allowing NATO full and unimpeded access to all FRY territory. Most, but not all, Yugoslav forces would have to leave Kosovo in phases, although the presence of a limited border force would be allowed. A local, multi-ethnic police force would be created. All other forces, including the KLA, would be demilitarized. The agreement would be valid for a period of three years, after which an international conference would be held to establish a mechanism, understood to include a referendum, for determining Kosovo's final status.\nTalks were extended an extra week, and then suspended after achieving preliminary approval by the Kosovar Albanian delegation but no acceptance by Belgrade. Conference sponsors said they had reached consensus on many aspects of the autonomous arrangements for Kosovo, but not on the so-called implementation chapters, including the international presence in Kosovo. After further delay, the Kosovar delegation finally signed the Rambouillet accords on March 18. As Belgrade continued to refuse to accept the terms of Rambouillet, especially with regard to an international security presence, the Kosovo talks in France were adjourned, having failed to achieve the goal of a political settlement. Meanwhile, as the Rambouillet talks proceeded to their unsuccessful conclusion, violence continued to escalate in Kosovo.\nIn response to Belgrade's attacks in Kosovo and intransigence at the peace talks, NATO revived its threat of air strikes. On March 22, 1999, President Clinton said NATO's objectives in Kosovo were to stop the killing and achieve a durable peace that restored self-government to the Kosovars. On March 23, NATO Secretary-General Javier Solana said the air campaign was the international community's response to Milosevic's failure to meet three core demands:\nacceptance of the interim political settlement negotiated at Rambouillet;\nobservance of limits on the FRY army and police forces agreed in October;\nending the excessive and disproportionate use of force in Kosovo.\nOn the first day of NATO's air operation (March 24), President Clinton gave an address to the nation in which he outlined three objectives of the mission:\nto demonstrate the seriousness of NATO's purpose;\nto deter an even bloodier offensive by Yugoslavia against innocent civilians in Kosovo;\nif necessary, to seriously damage the Serbian military's capacity to harm the people of Kosovo; to limit Milosevic's ability to make war in Kosovo.\nAs NATO began Operation Allied Force on March 24, Milosevic accelerated his massive ethnic cleansing campaign to drive out most of the ethnic Albanian population from Kosovo. The United States and other countries stepped up efforts to aid states neighboring Kosovo as they received hundreds of thousands of Kosovar refugees. In spite of the increased violence in Kosovo, NATO periodically expressed resolve to continue the air campaign until its objectives were met. As conditions for the bombing to cease, NATO established five core demands on Belgrade. NATO's objectives were for Milosevic to:\nstop all military action, violence and repression in Kosovo;\nwithdraw from Kosovo his military, police, and paramilitary forces;\nagree to the stationing in Kosovo of an international military presence;\nagree to the return of all refugees and access to them by humanitarian aid organizations;\nprovide assurance of his willingness to work on the basis of the Rambouillet Accords to establish a political framework agreement for Kosovo.\nNATO said it should provide the \"core\" of the international military presence, under unified command and control. It subsequently specified that all Serbian and FRY forces had to withdraw from Kosovo.\nOn the diplomatic side, NATO countries worked with Russia in the context of the Group of 8 in an effort to reach Milosevic. On May 6, the G8 adopted general principles for a Kosovo political solution. The G8 statement called for the deployment of \"effective international civil and security presences, endorsed and adopted by the United Nations,\" making no mention of NATO. It also called for the establishment of an interim administration for Kosovo to be decided by the U.N. Security Council, signaling a shift away from a negotiated settlement between the parties and toward an international protectorate. G8 countries continued to work on these principles and on a draft U.N. resolution that would embrace the G8 principles. On June 3, FRY President Milosevic accepted a peace framework presented to him by Russian and EU envoys Viktor Chernomyrdin and Martii Ahtisaari. This text, negotiated beforehand between U.S., Russian, and European officials, restored NATO's \"substantial participation\" and united command in the international security presence. It also called for the withdrawal of all FRY military, Serbian police, and paramilitary forces from Kosovo. (Texts of the G8 statement and peace framework are included as appendices to U.N. resolution 1244.) The NATO air campaign was suspended on June 10, after Belgrade began to comply with the terms of the Military Technical Agreement (MTA) worked out the previous day between NATO and the Yugoslav Army. The MTA detailed terms of a cessation of hostilities and the phased full withdrawal of all army and police units from Kosovo. The Military Technical Agreement also addressed terms of the deployment of a NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR) in Kosovo. On June 10, President Clinton claimed that Milosevic's acceptance of the peace framework met NATO's three core objectives: the withdrawal of Serb forces, the deployment of an international security force with NATO at the core, and the return of Kosovo civilians to their homes, to live in security and self-government.\nOn June 10, the U.N. Security Council passed, 14 to 0, with China abstaining, Resolution 1244. A goal of the resolution was stated to be resolving the grave humanitarian situation in Kosovo and ensuring the safe return of all refugees and displaced persons. The resolution reaffirmed the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the FRY; it did not describe the status of Kosovo. It stated that a political solution would be based on the general principles made in the May and June G8 statements. It outlined the preliminary structure and missions of the international civil and security presences in Kosovo. The U.N. Secretary-General subsequently issued reports outlining the concept and structure of the international civil presence in Kosovo (S/1999/672 and S/1999/779).\nThe overriding U.S. and international objective to achieve peace and stability in Kosovo and the rest of southeastern Europe remained consistent during this period and will likely continue to guide international policy. The interest of the United States and other countries in achieving this broad objective was fueled by the perceived threat of the conflict expanding to other countries, including members of NATO, and the prospect of prolonged and massive human suffering in the Balkans. It was tempered, in the eyes of some observers, by questions about the U.S. stake in Kosovo, uncertainties regarding the use of military force to achieve political objectives in Kosovo, and concerns about the strategy of NATO's air campaign. It was also complicated by the actions of Slobodan Milosevic. As a result, many underlying objectives evolved to varying degrees as the situation on the ground changed over time and as the United States and other countries reacted to these changes.\nFour components of the goal to restore peace and stability included the objectives of averting a humanitarian crisis in Kosovo and the region, securing a stable military situation on the ground conducive to a peace settlement, achieving a durable political settlement for Kosovo, and maintaining consensus within NATO. The evolution of each component is reviewed below.\nThe escalation of violent conflict between the Serb forces and Kosovar rebels since early 1998 produced a rapid deterioration of the humanitarian situation in Kosovo. This phenomenon, and the prospect of a greater humanitarian catastrophe, increased the incentive of the international community, for the first time, to engage in efforts to reach a political settlement for Kosovo.(3) During 1998, the international community made frequent demands on Belgrade to cease offensive operations and dispatched diplomatic missions to promote a negotiated peace process. As the humanitarian situation continued to deteriorate with growing numbers of civilian casualties, refugees and displaced persons, and reports of atrocities, NATO countries agreed to back up diplomatic demands with the threat of air strikes. Under this threat, Milosevic agreed to international demands in October 1998. The agreements achieved a pause in the conflict, which was intended to bolster diplomatic efforts for a political resolution. Thus, a worst-case humanitarian predicament was temporarily averted, as humanitarian aid agencies gained access to the Kosovo population in need. However, by early 1999, violence had resumed and escalated.\nOne objective of NATO's Operation Allied Force was to deter Milosevic from further aggression against civilians in Kosovo, according to statements made by the President and other Administration and NATO officials. The allied military campaign failed to achieve this objective. Unlike in October when he withdrew some of his forces before a NATO military threat, this time Milosevic unleashed his largest ethnic cleansing campaign to date, driving over 800,000 Kosovars across the border within a few weeks. The massive influx of refugees to the poor and fragile neighboring countries of Albania and Macedonia threatened to spread instability rather than contain it. The Serb campaign also displaced hundreds of thousands more inside the province. Refugee accounts told of numerous massacres and other war crimes committed by Serbian forces during this time. International observer and aid missions withdrew from Kosovo prior to the bombing campaign. International aid agencies were therefore unable to provide humanitarian relief to the displaced population inside Kosovo, though they assisted refugees in neighboring countries (with the assistance of NATO forces stationed in these countries). In response to these events, western leaders pledged to ensure the return of all refugees and displaced persons to their homes. In an op-ed article, President Clinton wrote that \"the question now is not whether (Milosevic's) ethnic cleansing will be reversed, but when.\"(4)\nWith the subsequent agreement to deploy a NATO-led force in Kosovo and the remarkably swift return of most of the refugees, the humanitarian situation in Kosovo has improved and is likely to show further improvement. Meeting this objective will depend on how the peace process progresses, what conditions returning Kosovar refugees find in their home towns, and how effectively humanitarian and reconstruction efforts proceed. Meanwhile, the mass exodus of ethnic Serbs from Kosovo since the start of KFOR's deployment in Kosovo has created new humanitarian challenges in Serbia.\nThrough 1998, an objective of the international community was to induce Yugoslav Army (VJ) forces stationed in Kosovo to return to their garrisons and demand that extra Serbian special police (MUP) units, the ones most responsible for the repression of Kosovar civilians, withdraw from the province. At the same time, the United States and its allies demanded that the KLA refrain from terrorist attacks on Serb police and the Yugoslav army. This limited objective reflected an acknowledgment of Belgrade's sovereignty over Kosovo and little support by western countries for the tactics or independence goals of the KLA. Under the October 1998 accords, Milosevic was to have reduced the number of Yugoslav army and Serbian police units in Kosovo to roughly the levels they were before the conflict erupted at the start of the year. According to the Defense Department, Milosevic would have been considered to be in compliance if 11,000 VJ troops and 10,000 MUP police remained in Kosovo.(5)\nThe worsening of the fighting by the end of 1998 and into 1999 caused a re-evaluation of the desired levels of Serbian forces in Kosovo. The Rambouillet agreement called for the phased withdrawal of most Yugoslav army and Serbian special police (MUP) forces over a period of months. It allowed 1,500 Yugoslav Army personnel to serve in border guard battalions, and up to an additional 1,000 troops to serve in border security functions. It also allowed 2,500 MUP police to remain in Kosovo for up to two years. These allowed presences granted Belgrade some physical vestiges of sovereign control over its borders. As for the KLA, the Rambouillet agreement called for the demilitarization of all other forces under terms worked out by KFOR, and restrictions on where they could carry arms.\nAfter Rambouillet failed, and especially after Milosevic significantly escalated the ethnic cleansing of Kosovo, the United States and NATO seized upon a new objective of getting all Yugoslav and Serbian forces out of Kosovo. It was thought that only a total Serbian withdrawal, with the introduction of an international security presence, would provide for enough security for the Kosovar refugees to return home. On June 9, Yugoslav and Serbian military officials and NATO KFOR commander Gen. Jackson signed a Military Technical Agreement on the phased withdrawal of all Yugoslav and Serbian forces and on KFOR. On June 21, the KLA concluded an accord with NATO on its demilitarization and the cantonment of most of its weapons. Under the accord, the international community would give consideration to allowing KLA members to join a new Kosovo police force or form a force similar to a national guard.\nThe other dimension to providing a secure environment in Kosovo has been the deployment of an international security presence in the province. Planning and ideas for this mission have evolved with fluctuations in the peace process. The October 1998 agreements allowed only civilian ground and unarmed aerial monitoring missions to verify compliance with peace terms. The Rambouillet agreement specifically invited NATO to deploy an international force (KFOR) to Kosovo and the rest of the FRY. NATO's initial planning for KFOR envisaged a force of about 28,000 troops. At Rambouillet and afterward, Yugoslavia rejected the presence of any foreign military force on its territory. During the course of the NATO air campaign, NATO upheld its condition that Belgrade accept an international security force in Kosovo with NATO \"at its core.\" U.S. officials continued to insist that this meant that the force must have NATO command and control and rules of engagement. They expressed willingness to arrange for the participation of non-NATO members, such as Russia, along the lines of the command arrangements of the NATO force in Bosnia. Only such a force, they argued, could provide the security to allow refugees to return home and the KLA to disarm.(6)\nRussian negotiators, the West's primary link to Milosevic, sought, unsuccessfully, to downplay the NATO role in the future security presence. Moreover, the May G8 statement referred only to \"effective international civil and security presences,\" an apparent compromise on terminology. Finally in June, Milosevic accepted the principle of an \"international security presence with substantial NATO participation...under unified command and control,\" clearing the way for U.S. and NATO agreement on deploying the force in Kosovo. NATO's plans, meanwhile, had evolved to a peace force in Kosovo of about 50,000. The increase in size from earlier plans reflected the more challenging conditions on the ground, with much larger numbers of refugees to be returned to Kosovo and with greater infrastructure damage resulting from the air strikes and from the actions of Serbian forces.(7) KFOR's deployment, according to the terms of the MTA, is limited to Kosovo.\nRussia's possible participation in KFOR provided another element of uncertainty after some 200 Russian troops entered Kosovo from Bosnia and unexpectedly assumed control of Pristina airport on June 12. Russia reportedly sought control of its own sector in Kosovo, while western governments feared that that development would lead to Kosovo's partition. On June 18, U.S. and Russian officials concluded an accord on Russia's participation in KFOR. It provides for 3,600 Russian troops to serve in KFOR in the U.S., German, and French sectors of KFOR, and does not give Russia its own sector.\nIn summary, meeting the objective of achieving a favorable security situation on the ground appears more promising after the NATO bombing than before. The terms governing both the presence of the local forces and the international security force are stronger now than the terms outlined in either the October agreements or the Rambouillet accords. All Yugoslav army and police forces have formally completed withdrawal from the province, the Yugoslav military remains damaged by the NATO air campaign,(8) and deployment of a larger international force under unified NATO command and control has commenced.\nOn the other hand, the continuation of the conflict and the increased level of brutalities through half of 1999 may have exacerbated the security situation in pockets of Kosovo where returning Albanian refugees seek retribution against local Serbs, or where there is any remaining Serbian resistence to the Albanians' return. The continued presence of ethnic Albanian and/or Serbian paramilitaries, with possibly hidden caches of armaments, may present future challenges to KFOR. The prolonged fighting in Kosovo may have allowed the Serbian military to lay additional mines throughout the province. In addition, U.N. resolution 1244 calls for \"an agreed number,\" as yet unspecified, of Yugoslav military and Serb police personnel to be permitted to return to Kosovo to liaise with the international civil and security presence, mark and clear minefields, maintain a \"presence\" at Serb patrimonial sites in Kosovo, and maintain a \"presence\" at key border crossings. The actions and performance of the Russian troops in KFOR will also likely affect the security situation on the ground.\nFollowing months of shuttle diplomacy led by the U.S. envoys, Rambouillet was the first attempt by the international community, in particular the Europeans, to bring the Serb and Kosovar Albanian parties together under international auspices to agree on an interim peace arrangement for Kosovo. As reviewed earlier, Rambouillet granted autonomous self-government in Kosovo while maintaining Yugoslav sovereignty over the province. The peace agreement was to remain in force for three years. At the end of this period, the international community would convene a special conference \"to determine a mechanism for a final settlement for Kosovo, on the basis of the will of the people, opinions of relevant authorities, each Party's efforts regarding the implementation of this Agreement, and the Helsinki Final Act.\" Eventually signing the Rambouillet agreement, the Kosovar Albanian delegation made clear that it understood this provision to mean that a popular referendum would determine the final status of the province. The Rambouillet process was suspended after the Yugoslav delegation refused to accept the interim accord.\nIn contrast, U.N. resolution 1244 outlines the general principles of a political solution to Kosovo without the signatures or overt consent of the Yugoslav or Kosovar parties.(9) It assigns all civil and security responsibilities and functions to an international administration, effectively establishing a U.N. protectorate. It says that the international civil presence will promote the establishment of substantial autonomy and self-government in Kosovo, \"taking full account of annex 2 (the Ahtisaari-Chernomyrdin principles) and of the Rambouillet accords.\" It does not specify either a final status or a mechanism for a final status for Kosovo, although it refers to application of the resolution \"pending a final settlement.\" It remains thus unclear as to what entity the transitional U.N. arrangement will eventually transfer authority.\nThe resolution authorizes the establishment of the civil and security presences for an initial period of one year, implying a soft deadline, although it also says they are to continue thereafter unless decided otherwise by the Security Council. As it eschews a clear outline of a final political settlement for Kosovo, the U.N. resolution provides no \"exit strategy\" for the international civil and security administration of Kosovo. In a June report to the Security Council, the Secretary-General stated that his Special Representative will be responsible for facilitating a political process \"designed to determine the future political status of Kosovo, taking into account the Rambouillet accords.\"(10)\nWith regard to the structure of the international civil presence, the U.N. resolution differs from Rambouillet in that it increases the role and authority of the United Nations. Many other regional organizations, such as the European Union and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, are to become involved with peace implementation. However, all civil functions are to fall under the authority of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General (named to be Bernard Kouchner of France). Rambouillet, in contrast, assigned a larger and more autonomous role to the OSCE. Similar to Rambouillet is the separation of military and civilian commands and structures, with KFOR remaining separate and distinct from the civil mission, though with \"close coordination\" between the two.\nWith peace implementation efforts having just begun, it is premature to assess whether the objective of reaching a durable political settlement is likely to be achieved. Much will depend on the leadership exercised by the international civil administration and how it interprets what \"substantial autonomy\" means in practice. Other important factors will be the level of engagement and resources provided by the international community, and the extent to which KFOR is able to provide a secure environment for, or directly assist, civilian peace implementation and reconstruction efforts.\nA growing concern is that delays in getting a U.N. administrative infrastructure in place could delay progress across the board, especially the establishment of effective civil police administration. Delays have already prompted KLA members to seize control of administrative functions in numerous Kosovar towns. For the time being, KFOR will remain responsible for maintaining law and order in the absence of an effective civilian police force, although KFOR commanders are eager to turn that task over to the U.N. Another concern is whether the U.N. Security Council, especially permanent members Russia and China, can maintain a unified position in its oversight function. A third concern is that peace efforts in Kosovo cannot be insulated from potentially severe political instability in Serbia. Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic remains in power, though for how long remains uncertain. U.S. officials have stated that Milosevic must step down from power and the United States has even offered a reward for information leading to his arrest and transfer to the Hague war crimes tribunal. The outcome of Serbia's crisis of political leadership will likely have enormous consequences for the shape of peace developments in Kosovo.\nObservers have speculated that Milosevic's strategy was to ride out the NATO air campaign and wait for differences among the NATO allies to cause a rift within the alliance and an end to the air strikes. Many observers believed that Milosevic had good reason to question unity among NATO's 19 members on a lengthy air strike campaign against Yugoslavia. Before October, when NATO first threatened air strikes, some NATO members questioned the international legal basis for NATO's threat, as it came without specific U.N. Security Council authorization. In March 1999, some NATO member governments, such as Greece and Italy, continued to convey serious misgivings about engaging in air strikes. Popular support for the NATO action in member countries also varied greatly. In the end, however, all 19 NATO countries remained unified behind the air strikes for the duration of the campaign.\nAs the campaign wore on, some NATO governments came to favor the idea of instituting a \"pause\" in the air strikes to allow time for Milosevic to comply with NATO demands. The NATO summit in Washington on April 23-24, viewed as a critical juncture for maintaining allied unity on Kosovo, considered this proposal. The summit's statement on Kosovo for the first time specified that NATO would consider suspending the air strikes once Belgrade \"began\" to withdraw forces from Kosovo and accepted NATO's five conditions. Elsewhere in the statement, however, it was said that there would be \"no compromise\" and that the operation would continue. U.S. officials concluded then and afterward that NATO countries became more, not less, unified as the campaign wore on. Other observers questioned the durability of allied consensus behind an even longer air campaign, especially if the ground invasion option were to come under active consideration.\nThe need for building and maintaining consensus within the 19-member alliance constrained to some extent decision-making on the conduct of the operation. Alliance cohesion may have necessitated a more incremental approach to the campaign than originally foreseen. NATO officials have conceded that the alliance's \"command by committee\" hampered the military leaders' ability to carry out an effective and flexible campaign, or to escalate the bombing.(11) On other military options, NATO members remained divided. For example, NATO member governments objected to the NATO commander's plans to enforce an oil and fuel embargo against Yugoslavia with deadly force. On the potential for NATO launching a ground offensive operation against Yugoslavia, Defense Secretary Cohen said repeatedly that there was no consensus among NATO countries on this prospect. Many observers have contended that the removal of this option from consideration severely limited the effectiveness of the air campaign. British Prime Minister Blair was both lauded and criticized for pressing NATO consideration of a ground offensive as the air campaign wore on.\nWith the official termination of the air campaign in mid-June, NATO countries are now engaged in deploying forces to Operation Joint Guardian, the peacekeeping mission undertaken by KFOR. Within NATO, the peacekeeping mission is much less divisive than were the air strikes. However, the KFOR mission is not without risks. Moreover, the current perceived need for KFOR to remain deployed in Kosovo for many years may pose challenges to alliance unity over time.\nAppendix: Documentation(reverse chronological order)\nReport of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo, S/1999/779.

This goes on my wall by my computer.\nBR/David from Sweden\nMichael Wilk February 9, 2014 at 3:52 PM\nAnother problem I've noticed in many student screenplays is writing in such a way as to assume the audience is telepathic. That is, the writer assumes the audience can read his or her thoughts, giving no information as to how or why things happen within the story. An example is the recent Christmas special for Doctor Who, \"The Time of the Doctor\". The main character is a time traveling alien with a time ship that is infinitely larger inside due to transdimensional engineering. He lands on a planet with one, tiny farming community of maybe a few dozen individuals. The planet is threatened by war on a massive scale from a multitude of alien invaders come to prevent an event from happening, namely, the Doctor's people returning to the universe from a pocket dimension in which they have been trapped.\nIf the Doctor leaves, the aliens will burn the planet. So he stays for centuries, defending the small town from the alien invaders. It is never explained why the Doctor cannot simply have evacuated the town's inhabitants rather than trap himself there for hundreds of years. The writer assumes the audience won't question this. He also assumes the audience will not wonder how a world where the days last only a few minutes at a time can support any sort of farming. Ask the writer and he'll simply dismiss the questions as nitpicking, but these are serious plot holes that really ought to have been addressed.\nPhil Dyer February 10, 2014 at 11:27 PM\nYeah, a lot of longstanding shows like this have established a level of expectations with the kind of premises that the audience will and will not accept. In fact, some people would argue that it adds to Dr. Who's kitschy appeal, though I agree with you that it's usually best to avoid this kind of thing.",

        "raw_content": "The Patient's Time\nI recently worked a shift at one of the free, student run clinics here in Palo Alto. Compared to a previous shift a while back, today was quite calm with a manageable flow of patients. In fact, the number of volunteer hands far outnumbered the number of patients so I wondered if my services were even necessary.\nShould I duck out early to go work on one of the four problem sets that I have due this week? Now that my time is strained, I must be a bit more selfish to keep everything streamlined and maximally efficient. So this is a waste of time, right? I should be focusing on my studies and come back another day when I can really get my hands dirty and get some clinical experience under my belt. These were some of the thoughts flowing through my mind as I sat idly for the first hour waiting to see my first patient.\nOf course, as I notice upon reflection, all of my thoughts revolve around me, myself, and I. This is my precious Sunday and I have work that must be finished and I could be outside enjoying the day and\u2026. the list inevitably grows longer with each passing second. But who is to blame? It took a whole heap of self-centeredness to get to this position and to have this opportunity in the first place. Everything involved in the preparation for medical school is necessarily a total preoccupation with oneself\u2014my school work, my time, my goals, my future. So this is different. I feel a bit uncomfortable and anxious. But in reality, this is life so I had better adjust and embrace it.\nWe have switched roles. I am used to controlling my own time, but now time is in the driver\u2019s seat. And this is not my time. This time belongs to the patient in the waiting room who is both anxious and hopeful for my arrival. And his time grips me forcefully, commanding me to obey. For I am now at his service and at the service of anyone who takes the brave step of coming into a free clinic in what is often a desperate search for care, compassion, and attention. How could my time possibly trump that of the patient. It would be a negation of the intrinsic morals of the profession to which I am now devoting myself.\nAnd then, chart in hand with white coat buttoned, a step into the waiting room and make eye contact with the patient. Before I even have a chance to introduce myself, this temporary tug of war ceases; the patient wins and I helplessly submit as soon as I let go of my self-righteousness. Over the course of our exchange, a change of perspective to the patient\u2019s point of view makes everything clearer. I imagine myself\u2026 in an unfamiliar setting, simultaneously ashamed and stressed by my loss of health insurance, in desperate need of a refill for my diabetes medication. I have nowhere to turn and no one to turn to for help. My wife does not speak English, yet she has come with me to this new world in hopes of a better life. And what do I give her in return? Nothing! I am unemployed and unable to provide for her and my two young sons. Up until the recession, I was successfully employed as a building contractor. Demand was high with the expansion of the tech companies here in Silicon Valley. I was in the driver\u2019s seat, but now, three years later, I am on the ropes of financial ruin. I am ashamed, but I am fearful that if I do not seek help my condition will worsen. I am committed to caring for my health, but the financial stress of every day put health on the backburner. And now I am here, against my will, but seeking your help and guidance.\nAs these thoughts flash by\u2014one by one in a jumbled order\u2014I forget about myself. My time and energy meshes seamlessly with that of the patient. I am eagerly entangled in his story, full of want to know more and to understand how this condition came to be and how it affects his daily life. For a man who was in near perfect health for most of his life, a diagnosis of diabetes three years past was terrifying and upsetting. Not only is this a chronic condition that requires daily attention and management, but this is the evil culprit that broke his streak of good health. In a sense, this was a challenge to his independence and self-worth\u2014a chink in the armor that exposes vulnerability. He does not want to be one of the 824,000 Californians or one of the more than 7 million Americans ages 45-64 with diabetes mellitus. Moreover, the pain of vulnerability is been exacerbated by the shame of unemployment and the inability to procure health insurance for him and his family. This idea of taking medicine seems almost unmanly. After years of contracting with pharmaceutical companies, he distrusts their motives and views the drugs they sell as profiteering scams. He refuses to become dependent on industrialized drugs, and has experimented with alternatives such as cinnamon to regulate blood sugar and garlic to lessen his blood pressure. But his stress levels remain high as his blood pressure affirms. Blood glucose levels are elevated, so despite his attempts at denial, he has made the hard first step of seeking care. I commend him.\nAlthough he eventually acknowledges the necessity of a refill of Metformin and Cozaar, we enter into a fruitful discussion of lifestyle. He expresses a desire to be more physically active and we determine that a first step would be walking and playing with his two sons in the nearby park during the week. He explains how he has become more conscious of what he eats and focuses on eating smaller portions with everything in moderation. We talk about some healthy lower carb options and possible substitutes for some of the foods that he is already eating. Although the medications are critical at this stage, we both agree that lifestyle changes will be critical in the long run. In fact, his aversion to medicine may be a powerful weapon in his fight against diabetes because to save himself, he must commit to lifestyle change. He seems willing and excited to have guidance and encouragement. I am excited that I actually have knowledge and experience to bring to this situation. We feed off of each other\u2019s positive energy as if we had been friends for years. As the visit closes, he is visibly elated and encouraged. In fact, we both are because we are both invested in his health.\nIn merely speaking with this patient, I remember why exactly I am traversing down this rocky road called medical school. Moments like these make it all worth it. I must remember this next time I am feeling stressed by my own to-dos and frustrated when time escapes my control. This is life, and in comparison to most of the patients that I will encounter, my position is pretty sweet. I must never forget this and remember to give each patient my best effort and attention because each patient is worthy of my best. As I progress in my clinical training, I intend to consistently remind myself that this is what I am working towards and each moment with a patient is not only practice\u2026it is a privilege.",

        "raw_content": "Study and recommendations based on the work of the ACCSH Health and Safety of Women in Construction. The focus is on the prevalence of a hostile workplace, restricted access to sanitary toilets, protective clothing and equipment in the wrong sizes, and poor on-the-job training as factors that adversely impacted women's ability to perform their jobs safely, and recommendations for correcting these situations.\nStudy and Recommendations by the Advisory Committee on\n\"Women in the Construction Workplace:\nProviding Equitable Safety and Health Protection\"\nSubmitted to the Occupational Safety and Health\nAdministration (OSHA), June 1999\nWomen in the Construction Workplace:\nProviding Equitable Safety and Health Protection\nHealth and Safety of Women in Construction (HASWIC) workgroup,\nAdvisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health (ACCSH),\nAs increasing numbers of women enter the construction trades, concerns about their health and safety are growing. In addition to the primary safety and health hazards faced by all construction workers, there are safety and health issues specific to female construction workers. The small percentage of females within the construction trades and the serious health and safety problems unique to female construction workers have a circular effect. Safety and health problems in construction create barriers to women entering and remaining in this field. In turn, the small numbers of women workers on construction worksites foster an environment in which these safety and health problems arise or continue.\nSources of information for this report include a survey of tradeswomen conducted by CWIT and two research studies by NIOSH. The key findings and recommendations are\norganized into seven categories: Workplace Culture; Sanitary Facilities; Personal Protective Equipment; Ergonomics; Reproductive Hazards; Health and Safety Training; and Injury and Illness Data and Research.\nSimilar concerns surfaced in all three studies. The prevalence of a hostile workplace, restricted access to sanitary toilets, protective clothing and equipment in the wrong sizes, and poor on-the-job training-these were significant issues that adversely impacted women's ability to perform their jobs safely.\nMany of the identified problems are amenable to change through engineering, behavioral, or administrative intervention. The recommendations in this report are directed at employers, labor unions, manufacturers, training programs, supervisors, and workers. Improving the work conditions for women in the construction trades will not only ensure their health and safety, it will also serve to attract and retain women as workers during a critical time of labor shortages in this industry.\nThis document is based on the work of the Health and Safety of Women in Construction (HASWIC) workgroup, a workgroup established by OSHA's Advisory Committee on Construction Safety & Health (ACCSH). The full ACCSH adopted the report on March 13, 1997. Staff from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Chicago Women in Trades, and from OSHA provided technical and editorial assistance. ACCSH recognizes this valuable help and the contributions of the HASWIC workgroup members and its many public participants.\nACCSH/HASWIC Workgroup Members:\nLauren Sugerman, Chairperson of HASWIC workgroup, Chicago Women in Trades, Chicago, IL\nBernice Jenkins, P.J.

Inadequate physical protection, a possibly hostile work environment, and their status as a small fraction of the construction workforce are factors that add to women's concerns.\nThe construction industry as a whole is facing a nationwide crisis with respect to the availability of qualified labor. With the demand for labor outstripping supply, construction employers need to expand their recruitment efforts to previously untapped labor sources, including women. Thus, they need to ensure that the work environment is \"woman friendly.\"\nThis report will not cover the health and safety concerns of all construction workers. Rather, it attempts to summarize the additional concerns of women working in construction, and the report will propose recommendations to help OSHA, NIOSH, employers, unions, and workers provide equal safety and health protection in the construction industry for all construction workers, regardless of gender.\nToday, nearly 60% of women age 16 and over participate in the workforce. While women have made some gains in occupations traditionally occupied by men, construction trades remain overwhelmingly male dominated. In 1970, when OSHA was enacted, women made up less than one percent of workers in the construction trades.2 By 1995 that percentage had only grown to 2.3 percent.\nThe small percentage of females working in the construction trades and the serious health and safety problems unique to female construction workers have a circular effect. Safety and health problems in construction create barriers to women entering and remaining in this field. In turn, the small numbers of women workers on construction worksites foster an environment in which these problems arise or continue.\nVery little information has been collected on the safety and health concerns of women construction workers. This report will summarize findings from three studies that were designed to help identify and understand the health and safety hazards encountered by female construction workers. The first study, conducted by Chicago Women in Trades (CWIT), used mail surveys, phone interviews, and focus groups to ask 200 Chicago area tradeswomen about issues affecting their work. 3 Although safety and health were not the primary foci of the study, concerns about these issues were uncovered in the responses to other questions asked in the study. The second and third studies were conducted by NIOSH. 4 5\nFifty-five tradeswomen participated in the first NIOSH study through focus groups, one-on-one interviews, or surveys. Using the findings from the first study, the second NIOSH study collected data from 213 tradeswomen during half-hour phone surveys. The two NIOSH studies focused specifically on health and safety issues affecting women construction workers.\nThe results of these studies, other research findings, and the discussions of the HASWIC workgroup are highlighted below. The findings support the importance of creating policies and initiatives to address and improve the working conditions faced by tradeswomen. This report provides a starting place for those initiatives.\nThe paper is divided into seven subject areas where safety and health issues for women occur:\nThe report concludes with recommendations intended to improve health and safety for women construction workers.\nThe construction industry has been overwhelmingly male dominated for years, and on many jobsites women construction workers are not welcome. Sex discrimination and anti-women attitudes are still prevalent on worksites, despite the fact that sex discrimination is illegal.6 Several studies have shown that female construction workers suffer from gender and sexual harassment, a factor associated with low job satisfaction as well as psychological and physiological health symptoms and workplace injuries. NIOSH found that, in a one year period, 41% of female construction workers suffered from gender harassment. In the CWIT study, 88% of the respondents reported sexual harassment.\nIsolation\u2013working as the only female on a job site or being ostracized by co-workers\u2013evokes both fear of assault and stress. Many tradeswomen report that they are reluctant to report workplace safety and health problems lest they be tagged as complainers or whiners, straining further their workplace relationships and jeopardizing their employment situation.\nHostile Workplace\nhostile workplace presents safety and health concerns on several levels, ranging from a lack of training and safety information to physical assault. Distractions while working can lead to not taking proper safety precautions, resulting in on-the-job injuries. The effects of a hostile workplace can be reflected in acute as well as chronic stress reactions. Indeed, OSHA has begun to recognize workplace violence as an occupational safety and health issue.\nOne illustration of how a hostile workplace is an occupational safety and health issue can be found in a two-part newspaper article on sexual harassment of women miners at an Eveleth (Minnesota) mine. 7 One of the women who experienced severe and unrelenting harassment at a mine testified that a male co-worker said he would throw \"the little bitch\" in the concentrator bins, huge receptacles for mixing iron ore powder. Such an action would likely cause the victim to suffocate or be crushed under the weight of the taconite. Some of the female miners testified that they carried knives to work or kept loaded guns within easy reach in their cars, because they believed their lives were in danger.\nIn the second NIOSH study, tradeswomen were asked if, in the past year, they had been mistreated by co-workers and/or supervisors because they were female. Forty-one percent responded that they had. The findings also showed that harassment by co-workers and/or supervisors was an important predictor for symptoms of increased psychological and physiological distress.\nAccording to CWIT's study, tradeswomen find the sexist attitudes (and accompanying behavior) present on construction sites intolerable and stress producing. They reported negative behavior ranging from belittling remarks and constant checking of their work to threats of physical violence. Fifty-two percent of the survey respondents reported that men refused to work with them during their construction careers. One former carpenter explained,\nThe problem is that there's a mixture of skills you don't have as a woman, and, at the same time, you're dealing with hostile men. You could deal with the dangerous work if the men treated you right, or you could handle the men if the work wasn't so dangerous. It's the combination that's so hard.\nA former welder reported,\nI applied for an apprenticeship with the ironworkers. The men who were applying formed groups and sent someone from each group to talk to me. They threatened me. They said, 'You may get this job because of the government, but you won't leave it alive. We'll be on a site with you some day, and we'll take care of that.' At another job, every morning the men came in, punched the time clock, and then spat on the floor in front of me.\nA carpenter commented,\nI've been around a lot of the older journeymen and a few others who really don't want to see women out there.\nTradeswomen tell of threats of physical harm, sabotaged work, and being placed in dangerous situations by male co-workers and supervisors. The NIOSH phone survey showed that, in the past year, 10% of the women reported having their work vandalized, and 10% had experienced threats of physical violence by co-workers and/or supervisors. The following quotations from the CWIT study provide examples:\nI was going down a ladder one day that was, I don't know how many stories, and he [her foreman] came over there and took the ladder and started shaking it. If I had fallen I'd be dead, I was just that high. I said, 'Stop shaking the ladder,' but he kept shaking it and laughing, saying 'She's scared, she's scared.'\nSometimes they drop things on you, hammers and wrenches\u2013dangerous things like that, supposedly by accident, from ladders or scaffolding. I just throw it back and say, 'You dropped this and I don't want you to have to come back down for it.'\nMany tradeswomen report that their physical strength is often \"tested\" by their male co-workers. They recount being asked to lift or carry materials that men would not handle alone. Some women said they often felt they had to overcompensate in their work to \"prove\" themselves to their co-workers and bosses. Many new male apprentices experience a period of hazing at first, but for women the poor treatment persists. It is intended not to \"test,\" but to drive the women away.\nA number of women in the first NIOSH study reported they often felt that they could not ask for help because that would start the scenario of \"See, I told ya she couldn't do it.\" Most were extremely concerned with how asking for help would be perceived by their co-workers and particularly their foremen.\nThe women said:\nA lot of times I feel like I've got to do this because I'm a girl, because if I don't they're going to say, 'See, what'd I tell ya, she's a girl. She can't lift it.'\nI didn't [ask for help], I ended [up] getting myself injured. It took once and one time only. I won't do it again, I won't be too proud to ask for help.\nWomen injure themselves more than the men because they refuse help, and they are not allowed to ask for help, and it's a much bigger deal if a woman asks for help.\nI ended up almost hurting myself just to try to prove that I can do the job as well as he. Then it ended up that I got angry, and really told him. I had had enough ...he was shocked, because I was in his face, and that was it.\nSexual harassment is a serious problem for female construction workers. According to a 1996 USA Today analysis of U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Bureau of Labor Statistics data, female construction workers had the second highest rate of sexual harassment complaints per 100,000 employed women.8 Female miners had the highest rate. Sexual harassment in the workplace is not only an equal employment opportunity issue but is also increasingly recognized as a safety and health issue.\nSexual harassment violates laws prohibiting sex discrimination in employment. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when:\nsubmission to, or rejection of, such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such individual; or\nsuch conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment.\nFurthermore, under Affirmative Action Requirements announced by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, federal construction contractors have a responsibility to ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and coercion at all sites and in all facilities at which the contractors' employees are assigned to work.9\nWhile the problem of sexual harassment is gaining increased attention in all workplaces and civil rights remedies are more aggressively pursued, many are beginning to see it not only as an issue of employment discrimination but as a real workplace safety and health issue as well. The International Labour Organization, the Trades Union Council, and the Canadian Labour Congress have publicly recognized sexual harassment as an important health and safety issue. There is growing evidence that sexual harassment, at a minimum, is a stress producer and, in its more extreme forms, can pose a danger as a result of distraction, fear, and assault. 10\nAccording to the NIOSH and CWIT studies, sexual harassment in various forms is a fact of working life for most tradeswomen. Complaints range from subtle forms of sexual harassment such as being stared at, \"pinups\" of naked and nearly naked women, and unwanted sexual remarks (including comments on appearance) to being touched in sexual ways and sexual assault. Women tell of co-workers spreading vile rumors about them and playing \"pranks,\" such as putting condoms on their car antennas. Women also report threats of physical harm, and many prefer to work in areas with several workers. Unpublished findings from a survey conducted in 1989 in cooperation with the Massachusetts-based Women in the Building Trades, showed that 43% of tradeswomen surveyed had, at some point in their career, experienced uninvited sexually suggestive looks, comments, joking, or gestures from their supervisors.11 Seventy-two percent reported the same from co-workers.\nIn the second NIOSH study, 34% of the tradeswomen answered \"true\" to the question: \"In the last year, have co-workers and/or supervisors made unwanted sexual suggestions about, or references to, sexual activity?\" Also, 16% said that they had experienced unwanted physical contact, including that of a sexual nature, from co-workers and/or supervisors during the last year.\nIn the CWIT study, tradeswomen reported the following forms of sexual harassment: 88% had been confronted with pictures of naked or partially dressed women; 83% experienced unwelcome sexual remarks; and 57% reported being touched or asked for sex. The study included the following quotes:\nSome of the pictures they had on their lockers made me sick. I don't mean Playboy stuff, although I don't like that either. It was the Penthouse and the Hustler stuff that made me feel so angry.\nThere was a lot of harassment. One time one man said to me in front of twelve other men, 'I'd like to eat the lining out of your stuff.' I ran out of that trailer crying. One man came out of the trailer and said, 'He's just high, don't let it bother you.' But it did bother me. The other men started making lots of remarks after they found I was going to file a suit. I fell in a mud hole and almost drowned after that; I wasn't focusing on my work. I got hurt on my next job because of that\u2013I wasn't focusing.\nSexual harassment of female traffic controllers at a road construction site was the subject of a 1988 Appeals Court decision 12 in which the court ruled in favor of the female plaintiffs. Darla Hall, Patty Baxter, and Jeannette Ticknor were hired as \"flag persons.\" Immediately after the women started work, male members of the construction crew began to inflict verbal sexual abuse on the women, referring to the women with obscene adjectives. They nicknamed Ms. Ticknor \"Herpes\" after she developed a skin reaction due to a sun allergy. On one occasion, Ms. Baxter returned to her car and found vulgar anatomical names written in the dust on the sides of her car. Male crew members repeatedly used crude obscene requests to ask Ms. Hall if she wanted to have sex, and they requested that Ms. Hall and Ms. Baxter engage in oral sex with them.\nIn addition to the verbal abuse, male co-workers subjected Ms. Hall and Ms. Baxter to offensive, unwelcome physical touching. All three women also experienced other types of abuse at work. The women were \"mooned;\" a crew member exposed himself; obscene pictures were flashed at the women; and co-workers urinated in one woman's water bottle and another's gas tank.\nAnother example of abuse was also a safety and health hazard. The women complained when carbon monoxide fumes leaked from the pilot truck, causing the driver to become drowsy. The mechanic ignored the women's complaints and, instead, forced the women to rotate their positions so that no one was in the truck for more than a short period of time. Eventually the women quit their jobs.\nImpact of Isolation on Safety and Health\nOften a tradeswoman will find that she is the only woman on a jobsite. Twenty-two percent of respondents to the CWIT survey had never worked with another woman. Isolation, when experienced within a hostile workplace culture, can add to a woman's fear of harassment and assault. To quote several tradeswomen:\nThey [coworkers] were starting to talk really dirty. ...it was filthy stuff. Plus they were starting to touch me. I was the only woman on the job. I was the steward, but I was the only woman on the job, and we were in a shanty that I never felt comfortable in with them anyway.\nWhen you have more than one woman working with you, you have a better chance. You don't want to be alone. The stress is incredible. I had too many illnesses because of that. The more women there are, the more the climate begins to change. I don't have close friendships with the other women, but the fact that there are more women helps.\nWhen you go to a job and you see another woman, it's a big relief.\nHazard Reporting and the Link to Job Security\nThe work culture described above\u2013combined with tradeswomen's more tenuous hold on their jobs than that of the more senior or more favored male workers\u2013deters women from reporting unsafe or unhealthy working conditions. Women in the first NIOSH study reported that they could not bring up the issue of proper restrooms or worksite safety, because it might threaten their jobs. But such safety and health issues, nonetheless, are of major concern to tradeswomen.\nIn a hostile environment, where women already feel vulnerable, calling attention to these problems is not always possible or productive. One woman explained that, if a new employee complained about the lack of adequate restroom facilities for women, \"You'd see yourself bye-bye.\" An electrician in the CWIT study found:\nWhen I complained that there was no toilet they transferred me to another jobsite. They took me away from a really good partner and good overtime.\nAs evidenced in the following quotations, the women feel that complaining about safety issues does not win points with other workers.\nWomen in the construction trade...can't go out there whining ...or we can't go out there and complain. We just have to bite our lip and deal with it if we want to keep our job and if we want to get along with fellow workers.\nTradeswomen are targeted for early layoffs anyway, so you can't be putting them in positions to get themselves in trouble.\nSixty-two percent of the women interviewed in the second NIOSH study felt insecure about job promotions and/or advancement in the industry.\nAccess to sanitary facilities is frequently a problem on a new construction site. Temporary facilities are usually unisex, often without privacy, and generally not very well maintained. Sometimes there are no sanitary facilities available for women to use. Due to the lack of facilities, women report that they avoid drinking water on the job, risking heat stress and other health problems. Courts have found that the lack of appropriate sanitary facilities is discriminatory and violates OSHA standards.\nUnclean facilities can result in disease as well as urinary tract infection (for those who delay urinating rather than using such facilities). The availability and cleanliness of restroom facilities are major concerns for tradeswomen. In CWIT's report, 80% of tradeswomen have encountered worksites with dirty toilets or no toilets. Respondents to the CWIT survey said that facilities, when available, were filthy or were some distance from the site. Thirty-five percent of the women in the second NIOSH survey answered \"false\" to the statement, \"There are clean toilets at most jobsites.\"\nInadequate, unsanitary toilet facilities were the subject of a 1987 U.S. Appeals Court decision.13 Eileen Lynch, a female carpenter apprentice with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), was fired for using the large, clean, fully-equipped restrooms in the main building of the plant, which was off limits to construction personnel. She used these restrooms occasionally after her doctor diagnosed her with a bladder infection. Some of the men she worked with used them regularly and were not disciplined. The construction site contained two portable toilets for women, one at each end of the work area, and 21 other portable toilets not designated by sex, but primarily used by men.\nThe portable toilets were dirty, often had no toilet paper or paper that was soiled, and were not equipped with running water or sanitary napkins. In addition, those designated for women had no locks or bolts on the doors and one of them had a hole punched in the side. To avoid using the toilets, Ms. Lynch began holding her urine until she left work. Within three days after starting work she experienced pain and was advised that the practice she had adopted, as well as using contaminated toilet paper, frequently caused bladder infections.\nThe scientific literature and recorded evidence indicate that holding urine in the bladder for more than an hour after experiencing the urge to urinate leads to a higher incidence of urinary tract infections. 14\nThe Appeals Court ruled that the condition of the toilets limited female Construction Service Branch employees in a way that adversely affected their status as employees based solely on their sex. It held that any employment practice that adversely affects the health of female employees, while leaving male employees unaffected, has a significantly discriminatory impact. It said that the employer created an unacceptable situation in which Ms. Lynch and other female construction workers were required to choose between submitting to a discriminatory health hazard or risking termination for disobeying a company rule.\nThe TVA argued that portable toilets had been approved by the commission established under the Occupational Safety and Health Act and that female employees must accept them as part of construction work. However, the court said that the issue was not the decision to use portable toilets. It was the failure to furnish adequate and sanitary facilities to female workers who had been shown to suffer identifiable health risks from using portable toilets in the deplorable conditions of those furnished by the TVA at the construction site.\nIn the previously discussed Hall v. Gus Construction Company sexual harassment case of female flagpersons at a road construction site, male crew members would also refuse to give the women a truck to take to town for bathroom breaks. When the women would relieve themselves in the ditch, male crew members observed them through surveying equipment. The foreman knew about the practice but did not discipline anyone. The women miners at Eveleth mine also testified that they were sometimes denied bathroom facilities.\nIn the CWIT study, a number of women mentioned they would not use restroom facilities until they found a clean one at lunch time. A plumber reported,\nThe toilet was so dirty I couldn't make myself use it. I was lucky there was a restaurant across the street where I could go during breaks and at lunch, but even that was inconvenient.\nAnother NIOSH study participant said,\nThere are certain times of the month when you don't want to go to the woods or whatever. Yes, this is a big issue.\nAn electrician related:\nToday I used a portable toilet without a hood. They can see your head. I felt like the whole world was watching. You know they pee on the seat, so I didn't want to sit down.\nMost women agreed that this problem also extends to male co-workers, but that the men have accepted this health problem as part of the work culture. One woman said,\nI think the guys have problems also, but they take it for granted. They accept the conditions as part of this rough world that they function in. And also, many times if there is no near bathroom, they'll just pee....\nThe lack of water for washing up was also a problem. Women have a more frequent need for washing, especially during monthly menstrual cycles. One woman suggested that simply having a bucket of chlorinated water for hand-rinsing before and after visiting the porta-john/jane would be helpful.\nAs one electrician said,\nI'd just love to be able to wash my hands before lunch.\nMany women in nontraditional jobs, such as the construction trades, complain of ill-fitting personal protective clothing (PPC) and equipment (PPE). Clothing or equipment that is not sized, or does not fit, properly can compromise personal safety. It also may not function effectively in the manner for which it was designed.\nPoor fit compromises the protection offered by the garment or equipment. The lack of appropriate PPC and PPE can cause serious safety and health risks for women, and men of smaller sizes, who rely on protective clothing and equipment to help them keep safe. Having inadequate or ill-fitting clothing, boots, gloves, or safety equipment presents a safety hazard for any worker.\nStudies by NIOSH and the U.S. Department of the Army found that most tools, equipment, and clothing are not designed for a women's physique. 15 16 When asked if they could easily find protective clothing to fit, 46% of women in the second NIOSH said \"no\" with respect to work shoes and 41% with respect to finding work gloves. One survey of manufacturers of protective equipment, taken at a National Safety Council Annual meeting, found that only 14 percent offered ear, head, and face protection in women's sizes. The highest percentage, 59 percent, were manufacturers who offered foot protection in women's sizes.\nIll-fitting personal protective equipment may be due to unavailability (i.e., manufacturers don't make or distributors don't stock), limited availability, or lack of knowledge among employers and workers about where equipment designed for a woman's body structure can be obtained. Personal protective equipment intended for use by women workers should be based upon female anthropometric (body measurement) data.\nWork gloves must fit properly. Overly large gloves impair the transfer of sensory information from the hand, resulting in excessive force being applied. Tight gloves can restrict blood flow. Hand tools should be designed so that the stress concentrations can be spread evenly throughout the hand.17\nA recent NIOSH review found that few tools, equipment, or clothing are designed for a woman's physique. A recent study commissioned for the U.S. Army had similar findings.\nWomen in the first NIOSH study were particularly outspoken about this concern. One of the participants said:\nWhen I went through the welding apprenticeship, ...they issued us welding boots, size 9-1/2, I had to wear two pairs of socks to wear them. They gave me a welding leather jacket that was a foot longer than my hand. I had to roll it up. And they said that they couldn't order anything smaller. They gave me gloves so humongous, I couldn't even pick anything up.\nAnother woman's story reflects the frustration felt by these women\nI went to get up in a full suit the other day, and you couldn't see me! I mean, I don't want these. Just give me my coat, and I'll put on a couple pairs of coveralls. Sizes...we need our sizes...women's sizes.\nBeyond frustration is fear and the real danger of poorly fitting and ineffective clothes and personal protective equipment.\nYou can be hurt.... If you happen to have a pair of gloves on, and they're too big, and say you're doing some work, that glove could get wrapped up in a fan belt or... anything... with moving parts... you can get hurt... if your clothing is not fitted right.\nThey need to get in touch with apprenticeship programs, with contractors, and push if they have women's work boots and women's gloves for non-traditional trades. The information is not getting out there.\nRecent studies have shown that to reduce work-related musculoskeletal disorders, tools, materials, and equipment should be designed based in part on ergonomic considerations.18 Tools and equipment, like clothing, are often designed to be used by average-sized men. 19 As one woman in the NIOSH study noted:\nThey do not make hand tools for women, and women come in all sizes, just like men.\nHandle size and tool weight are designed to accommodate the size and strength of men, yet the average hand length of women is 0.8 inches shorter than the average man's. Their grip strength averages two-thirds the power of a man's grip.20 The grips of tools are typically too thick. Tools like pliers require a wide grasp which puts inappropriate pressure on the palm, leading to the loss of functional efficiency. In addition, women do not receive training on how best to use tools and equipment designed for men.\nSimilarly the epidemiological studies, which provided the strongest basis for the NIOSH guidelines on lifting, were predominantly based on male workers.21 22 There is a critical need to increase our knowledge of the \"safe limits\" for women for lifting and other motions, such as forward flexion of the trunk (bending over). This information would be useful for preventing low back disorders among women working in construction. Back disorders, the most commonly compensated injury in the workplace, are particularly problematic in construction.23\nWomen's size and body build require reconsideration of techniques for lifting and material handling. Not only do women come in all sizes and with varying degrees of muscular strength, their pelvic structure is different and their center of gravity is lower than men's. This would impact jobs that require standing at a work station. Lower equipment handles would facilitate the use of body weight in pushing and pulling tasks. Women's muscular strength is more equal to men's in their legs. Women would be on more equal footing with men if the work load could be transferred downward, with less reliance on the strength of hands and arms.\nSince, on average, women tend to have less upper body strength than do men, they cannot use all of the techniques men use for lifting and material handling. Out of necessity, tradeswomen have to develop ways that make the job possible and safer for a woman. For example, a plumber from the first NIOSH study stated:\nYou learn what not to do.... I have a body, I can use it from here [top of head] down to my feet. I don't have to use my upper body. They [male workers] have upper body strength where we have it [strength] from here [top of head] to our toes. The guys will ... grunt and groan and struggle ... and I'll sit down, put my feet on one side [of the wrench], and pull on the other.... That's what I consider using my brain instead of my brawn.\nAnother tradeswoman concurred, saying,\nHow to lift and how to bend \u2013 I didn't learn this until I ended up on physical therapy. I think that it's something we really need to look at, especially for individuals going into non-traditional work, is the way you lift and bend and move.\nThere is inadequate information on the extent to which female construction workers are exposed to reproductive hazards in the workplace. Reproductive hazards are defined as chemical, physical, or biological agents that can cause either reproductive impairment or adverse developmental effects on fetuses. Epidemiologic studies involving reproductive hazards are difficult to perform due to such factors as small sample sizes, confounding factors, and measurement difficulties.\nOnly a few agents or conditions have been identified as being capable of producing structural abnormalities or birth defects, with a fraction of those being common to construction sites (PCBs, hypothermia, and, for hazardous waste workers, ionizing radiation.) However, several agents such as lead, solvents, and pesticides have been recognized to affect sperm development.24 The vast majority of both male and female construction workers are of reproductive age and, thus, are at risk of potential harm if exposed to chemicals and conditions which have not been fully studied with respect to their reproductive hazards in humans.\nAlthough there are more worksite exposures known to affect male sperm development than known to produce birth defects, some employers find it easier to resolve potential problems by denying jobs to women, especially pregnant women. This is in spite of Supreme Court rulings prohibiting employers from continuing this practice. While these actions may be well intended, their effect is needless limitation on work opportunities for women. This can lead to discriminatory treatment toward tradeswomen and result in a tradeswoman hiding her pregnancy, possibly endangering herself and/or her unborn child. It can also result in tradeswomen suffering economic hardships due to the lack of job opportunities.\nTradeswomen in the CWIT study commented:\nI knew they'd tell me I couldn't work if they knew I was pregnant, so I just wore big clothes and said nothing. No one knew, and I worked through my eighth month.\nWhen I got pregnant my company agreed to give me light duty. But then they laid me off when everybody else was still working. My union wouldn't help me get another job after that, even though they were usually pretty good.\nWhen I asked for a job in the fabrication shop instead of climbing a ladder and working the sledge hammer, the safety director told me he had a problem with me working at all since I was pregnant.\nThe American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine adopted reproductive hazards management guidelines in April 1994, encouraging persons responsible for workplace health and safety to assess their workplaces for potential reproductive hazards and to implement appropriate responses for managing such hazards. Appropriate responses include: communication about potential risks and hazards, temporary reassignment, hazard elimination, and exposure control.\nInadequate information, and the lack of education and training, about workplace safety and health greatly concern women workers. The culture and attitudes of construction workers, supervisors, and companies about health and safety often condone risk taking and unsafe work practices, passing \"bad\" habits from one generation of workers to the next.\nThe workers in the studies commented that the attitudes of some journeymen and other co-workers toward apprentices, particularly female apprentices, affected (mostly negatively) the amount and kind of on-the-job training that was provided. Apprentices are not always provided with information and training on how to work correctly and safely, and opportunities to learn through practice may be withheld. Female workers are not always given sufficient opportunity to learn or test new skills. Due to the hostility that often accompanies it, women in particular do not benefit from the informal training common among their male peers. Tradeswomen also do not benefit from misguided attempts to protect female workers from difficult assignments.\nThirty-nine percent of the women interviewed in the second NIOSH study answered \"strongly agree\" or \"agree\" to the statement, \"Overall, I wish that I had been better trained before ever working on a construction site.\" Thirty-one percent said that at times they are assigned a task and are not sure how to do it.\nAvailability of Training\nOften the on-the-job skill-based training done in construction is by observation, rather than by direct instruction. The learning methods are frequently cited by tradeswomen as inadequate.\nWomen observed that:\nI think a lot of that [health and safety] information doesn't get to the hands of the people who need to know....\nMen have a lot of ways of doing a job easier. They have shortcuts. Let me tell you, I used to watch those guys.... I just used to watch them because they had a lot of little tricks that made the job easier. But no one ever showed me those tricks.\nMany women think that their male co-workers are more adept at gaining skills and learning the tricks of the trade, due in part to the benefits they receive from mentoring, coaching and general acceptance by their male colleagues. Women are often precluded from this type of informal training as a result of being less welcome on a site or because of hostile behavior and attitudes of male co-workers and supervisors. When their training is limited to observation and when they lack formal training, women feel they are at a distinct disadvantage. Women report that often they are not given the variety of assignments needed to adequately learn their trade. Instead they are assigned to routine, unskilled tasks like cleaning and sorting tools. Rather than progressing to more complex tasks, they do the same task over and over. For example, a cement finisher in the CWIT study reported:\nNobody really talked much to me on my first day on the construction site. But at the end of that first day one fellow said, 'I'm not going to train her so she can take my job.'\nA carpenter told:\nThey won't show how they're actually feeling. But they do these little snotty things, set things up backwards and so on. I learn how to do things backwards before I learn the right way. You have to figure it out yourself.\nAn electrician said:\nMy supervisor thinks he's doing well by us [women] by having us do the easiest jobs, but I'm almost a third year apprentice, and I should be more advanced. He's one of those overprotective kind of people.\nOne woman summed it up by saying:\nYou can't learn safety by chance, you need direction.\nLack of Support for Workplace Training\nSome female workers also expressed the concern that many of their male co-workers did not seem interested in participating in on-the-job safety education and training, and that some supervisors and bosses did not necessarily encourage such training. Related to this issue was the sense that, in many instances, productivity comes before safety. Seventy-eight percent of the tradeswomen in the second NIOSH study reported that significant shortcuts are taken, which could put a worker's health and safety at risk. These sentiments are reflected in the following comments by tradeswomen in the first NIOSH study.\nMany don't want to go to safety meetings. I don't know if it's a machismo thing or what. They're getting paid. But then there's always the contractor or boss breathing down your neck, saying 'how come this [work] wasn't done?' The boss doesn't say, 'You'd better go to that safety meeting because I don't want my workers' comp bill going up this year.'\nOne tradeswoman reported:\nSometimes they [workers] are just under pressure. They feel they need to produce; they need to be quick; they don't want to seem like too fussy.\nDespite OSHA regulations, women often feel that they have to take things into their own hands, as reflected in the following comment:\nWe should insist the employer take responsibility, but they often don't. If we, as a very small group, can have some autonomy to make some changes for ourselves, like to tell women, 'bring your earplugs, bring your masks, bring your eye protection'.... [We could] get a start on protecting ourselves.\nAnother participant said:\nYou also run across attitudes [that], 'It's not gonna happen to me. I can take a chance here and there and it's not gonna happen to me.'\nShe also observed that the unsafe habits of the older workers are picked up by younger workers:\nI work with apprentices and they're the younger ones that are coming up and they're out there and they're picking up these nasty, crappy attitudes and stuff from the journeymen that they're working around, because that's what they see them doing, and it seems to work fine and, you know, you can't combat that without ... an attitude change.\nIt is a well known fact that employment as a construction worker may have negative health consequences. The 1980-1989 fatality rate in the U.S. construction industry was 3.5 times higher than that for all manufacturing industries. 25 Given the level of risk associated with construction work, it is surprising that little research has been conducted focusing on the health and safety concerns and practices of construction workers. In particular, health research on female construction workers is virtually nonexistent.\nCollecting accurate data to measure safety and health concerns is the only way to keep track of problems and progress. While gender-based safety and health data are collected, they are typically not reported or analyzed. Although data from the National Traumatic Occupational Fatalities (NTOF) and Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) all capture gender consistently, gender-specific analyses are not typically reported, because women comprise only 2% of non-fatal and 1% of fatal injuries in construction. Analysis by gender is important to identify where there are significant gender-based differences in occupational injuries and illness. While there is little research on the injuries, illnesses, and fatalities of women in the construction industry, there is even less on their health and safety concerns.\nBLS's annual Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses has gathered data by gender since 1992. In 1994, there were 4,400 non-fatal occupational injuries and illnesses to women in the construction industry involving days away from work. 26 The data, however, have not been analyzed in detail to compare injuries and illnesses of female and male construction workers. Although we know the number of non-fatal injuries and illnesses involving days away from work by construction trade and by gender, we do not know the ratio of injuries and illnesses compared to the numbers of men and women workers. The BLS captures data on the nature of the injury or illness, the part of body affected, the source of injury/illness and the event by gender, but to date these data have not been analyzed and reported out by gender. Findings from this gender-specific analysis could help develop better ways to prevent injury and illness.\nThe 1994 BLS data do reveal which construction trade occupations have the most injuries and illnesses involving days away from work. Among tradeswomen, female painters have the most (527), followed by carpenters (410) and electricians (254). Among tradesmen, carpenters have the most injuries and illnesses (36,675), followed by male electricians (18,116) and plumbers and pipe fitters (13,283).27 The numbers need to be compared with employment statistics for the same occupation to know if the differences between men and women are significant.\nAs the construction labor force becomes more diversified, the construction industry as a whole cannot afford to overlook the genuine safety and health needs and concerns of female construction workers, apprentices, and job applicants. This document is intended to call attention to the real contemporary health and safety issues of women in construction. These issues merit attention to, and action by, all those who share responsibility in the arena of construction safety and health.\nThe final section of this report provides recommendations that address each area of concern. Some of the recommendations are directed to OSHA and other federal agencies. Other recommendations are designed for various stakeholders to implement. The stakeholders include employers, labor unions, training programs, manufacturers, and employees working in the construction industry. These recommendations will assist the entire industry to improve the acceptance, training, advancement, and working conditions for women in the field. The safety and health issues facing women in the construction trades are in direct proportion to women's overall participation and equitable treatment in the industry.\nThe following recommendations are action steps designed to address the health and safety concerns of female construction workers as identified in the report. The workgroup believes that with education about, and attention to, these issues, OSHA and all stakeholders can play a role in helping to bring about safe, healthy, and equitable conditions for all workers.\nSpecific Recommendations for OSHA and Stakeholders\nOSHA should collaborate with the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs to identify problems of sexual harassment in worksites where they have jurisdiction and take appropriate remedial action. This could be done through a memorandum of understanding.\nOSHA should include sexual harassment prevention training in the Safety and Health Program's proposed standards and guidelines.\nOSHA should encourage labor unions and employers to include sexual harassment prevention training in safety and health programs.\nReview all communication materials to ensure that they are gender neutral and include women. Visual materials (videos, posters, pictures, etc.) should include examples of female construction workers to promote an integrated construction workplace.\nTo address the problem of workplace isolation of female construction workers, employers, apprenticeship programs, and unions (where responsible) should assign female workers in pairs, or more when possible, especially those who are relatively new to the construction trade.\nEmployers, unions, and apprenticeship programs should ensure that their supervisory personnel, teachers, and representatives have training and guidelines in ensuring the safety and health and equitable treatment of female workers, members, or trainees. This would include knowledge of the issues raised in this report, sexual harassment prevention, and leadership training.\nOSHA should amend CFR Section 1926.51 (toilets at construction jobsites) to specify that gender-separate, external and internal locking sanitary facilities be provided on construction worksites, that employees be allowed to use such facilities as needed, be provided keys for gender appropriate facilities, that the toilet facilities be maintained in a sanitary condition and in good repair (e.g., that locks work), that clean toilet paper be provided within reach of the toilet, and that hand washing facilities be located within close proximity to toilet facilities.\nWhere change rooms are provided on construction sites, they should also be gender separated and provided with inside and outside locking mechanisms.\nOSHA standards on personal protective equipment for construction (29 CFR 1926, Subpart E) should be revised to conform with the General Industry Standard for PPE (29 CFR 1910.132) which specifies that the employer select PPE that properly fits each affected employee. As discussed in the preamble to the General Industry Standard, this provision was added in part to address concerns that PPE and PPC often did not adequately fit female employees. Similar consideration should be included in the Construction PPE standard to protect all construction employees.\nOSHA should produce and promote a resource guide on sources for obtaining adequate fitting PPE and PPC for use in the construction industry.\nManufacturers of PPC and PPE should be encouraged to expand the range of sizes offered.\nEmployers should provide the best fitting PPE and PPC currently available.\nNew OSHA initiatives on ergonomics, such as the Technical Assistance Manual, should address the ergonomic hazards that are specific to gender. OSHA should monitor any ergonomic research conducted on its behalf to ensure methodology that includes both male and female subjects.\nAs OSHA develops standards, materials, or guidance on ergonomics, it should address gender-based needs.\nEmployers, unions, apprenticeship programs, and other training entities for the construction industry should review skills training curriculum to see whether alternative methods are included for getting work accomplished by workers of different sizes or strengths. All training programs should emphasize the importance of not lifting weight beyond an individual's capacity to do so in a safe manner.\nOSHA should adopt standards similar to the American College of Occupational Medicine's Reproductive Hazards Management Guidelines to protect all workers of childbearing capacity and pregnant construction workers.\nOSHA should identify additional research needed to develop a more comprehensive body of knowledge regarding reproductive hazards in the construction workplace.\nEmployers should have a Material Safety and Data Sheet (MSDS) for each chemical present on the site. Employees should read all MSDS and share information with their physicians if they are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.\nThe OSHA Training Institute curricula and/or other OSHA-sponsored training should include gender-related safety and health issues, i.e., PPE fit, sanitary facilities, workplace culture, and reproductive hazards, whenever programs are provided to the public and to federal and state OSHA compliance safety and health officers.\nOSHA should continue to enforce current on-the-job safety training.\nEmployers and unions should make skills training courses available and encourage female workers to take advantage of them. The courses should provide female workers with more opportunities to diversify their skills and minimize their chances of doing tasks incorrectly or in an unsafe manner.\nOSHA should work with the BLS, NIOSH, and other appropriate agencies to obtain and analyze information on injuries and illnesses among female construction workers. This information should be contrasted with data for male construction workers and other non-construction workers. This analysis would provide guidance to OSHA compliance and policy development activities.\nGeneral Recommendations for OSHA\nWhen OSHA inspects a construction workplace, it should identify any female construction workers. OSHA inspectors should interview a representative sample of women on the site to ensure a broad, non-gender-biased perspective on health and safety concerns of all workers. In addition, female construction workers should be questioned about specific health and safety concerns or issues that are unique to tradeswomen on a jobsite. These issues may include, but are not limited to:\nthe adequacy of personal protective equipment;\nthe sufficiency and sanitary conditions of toilet facilities;\nthe adequacy of safety and health training;\nproblems of sexual harassment and other examples of hostility;\nhow sexual harassment impacts or affects safety and health; and\nreproductive hazards.\nAll dialogue with female workers shall take place in a manner that ensures the privacy of respondents.\nTo facilitate such focused inspections, OSHA should develop a checklist for on-site inspectors that outlines a range of gender-related safety and health hazards as identified in this report. The checklist should be used to assess conditions by questioning both employers and employees. To promote and support the use of the checklist, OSHA should provide information and training for field staff.\nOSHA should incorporate gender neutral language in standards, training documents, and communications materials. Visual materials, such as video and posters, should incorporate images of female construction workers to promote the concept of a diverse workforce.\nRingen, K. and Stafford, E.J. \"Intervention Research in Occupational Safety and Health: Examples from Construction.\" American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 29:314-320, 1996.\nU.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (Employment and Earnings).

Pushing GMOs, Minimizing Environmental Protection\nBy Alena Sharoykina\nIn summarizing environmental issues from the previous year, I would like to say that Donald Trump\u2019s wining of the presidential race was the most significant eco-event of 2016. And all other events, regardless of their apparent importance (from the merger of GMO giants Bayer and Monsanto to the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Marrakesh) pale in comparison when you imagine the possible consequences.\nTo put it mildly, Trump is famous for his skepticism on global climate change, which he has many times called \u201cChinese mystification,\u201d and has confessed that he does not believe in the \u201chuman-caused nature of global warming,\u201d and many of his teammates share these views.\nThus, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt was nominated for the head of EPA, who is a tough critic of green economy and sued the Obama Administration regarding its Clean Energy Incentive Program for reducing greenhouse gases. One American journalist sneered, \u201cIf there has ever been a person in the United States to be called an environmentalists\u2019 nightmare, Trump has found him. It is Pruitt.\u201d\nBut Pruitt is only the tip of the iceberg. Trump\u2019s relationships with brothers David H. and Charles G. Koch, American tycoons and key sponsors of far-right wing of the GOP, in particular the Tea Party movement, bring more sense in understanding his \u201cenvironmental agenda.\u201d They uphold libertarian \u201canarchist and capitalist\u201d views and believe that the role of government in all social areas, including environmental protection, should be minimized.\nBeing worshippers of the oeuvre of Ayn Rand (Atlas Shrugged) and economist Friedrich von Hayek (The Road to Serfdom), the Koch brothers dream of a society with the ruling \u201cinvisible hand of the market\u201d and \u201centrepreneurial genius.\u201d In this worldview, genuine businessmen are \u201cthe heroes of the present-day Wild West.\u201d Such problems like the greenhouse effect, groundwater contamination during shale gas extraction and harm from GMOs should not worry them any more than the fate of the American Indians worried the Old World colonists.\nNewly elected US Vice-president Michael Pence\u2019s ties with the Koch brothers have been widely covered in the US Mass Media. But one should not forget Michael Pompeo, a Republican and a member of the Tea Party whom Trump appointed as CIA Director. A congressman from Kansas, Pompeo was one of the central figures for a lobbying campaign by Koch Industries, Inc. and Monsanto against mandatory GMO labeling in the United States.",

        "raw_content": "Ctrl Alt Esc, Margate \u2013 Frankenscape\nSometimes a game will try something new and clever, and it\u2019ll be wonderful and raise the game to new heights. Sometimes a game will try something new and clever and it\u2019ll crash and burn leaving the game a disaster. Ctrl-Alt-Esc try something new and clever and it works just fine, but you sort of wonder why they bothered.\nSo to address the game on its own merits first: it\u2019s really good. It has a very impressive opening sequence: the briefing uses a neat theatrical trick to increase the immersion, which on reflection seems obvious, but I\u2019ve never seen another game employ it. Then you enter the first stage of the game and\u2026 well you know when you first enter a room and you often feel transported to an entirely different and unexpected place, utterly at odds with the briefing area, and it feels really cool? Well this game does just that better than nearly any game I\u2019ve played. And it\u2019s weird because it\u2019s not an impressive setting \u2013 it\u2019s no space station or Aztec tomb, in fact it\u2019s the sort of place you probably see many, many times on the average day. It\u2019s hugely pedestrian by that measure. But it\u2019s also entirely unexpected within the context of where you are, and the building you\u2019ve just walked through. This not only creates surprise but also a little bit of unease. Which is a good thing because, as the name suggests, there\u2019s a light horror theme to the game.\nIt\u2019s worth stressing it\u2019s not a horror game as such: there\u2019s a few jump scares and a spooky soundtrack but it\u2019s not going out of its way to terrify you. However it does leverage the Dr. Frankenstein theme extremely well in terms of the puzzles and environment. Most of the game plays out in the lab of a genius inventor, and yes, it does involve a Frankenstein\u2019s monster at some point. And it\u2019s a good time. It\u2019s a slightly longer game than usual at 90 minutes, but it never feels like its outstaying its welcome. The additional game time is created by just adding a little more content to bulk the game up from your regular game, rather than by having a bunch of really difficult or time consuming puzzles. Rather the puzzles are all quite logical, fun and varied. It all comes together into a finale that requires you to have been paying attention throughout and provides some fun moments.\nSo, to the unique element of the game: it\u2019s fully automated. What does that mean? Well from a player perspective it just means no padlocks, it\u2019s all alternative means of inputting solutions to puzzles. But beyond that it means some clever stuff is going on behind the scenes: the room can dole out audio clues based on what you haven\u2019t solved by certain times, and it can also trigger certain elements semi-randomly on a timer or whatever. Which is\u2026 well mostly fine. But it creates some weirdness. Now here\u2019s the thing: much of that weirdness stems from having played a bunch of escape rooms, having a basic understanding of how things work, and then making assumptions which this game doesn\u2019t follow. So it\u2019s not entirely fair to say it\u2019s a fault of the game. To give a concrete example: firstly, a few things in the game happen on a random timer, which means you can be trying to solve something but you don\u2019t have all the required information. Not because you\u2019ve missed anything, just because the game hasn\u2019t triggered the event that leads to getting that information yet. This doesn\u2019t have to be a negative \u2013 indeed it\u2019s arguably more true to life than most games \u2013 but it\u2019s different to what you might be used to.\nThe automation does have some drawbacks though. One of the reasons padlocks are great is that you know when you\u2019ve solved them. And when solved, you know exactly what they\u2019ve now given you access to. With a fully automated and linked room, it\u2019s a bit different. Firstly it\u2019s not always obvious when you\u2019ve solved a puzzle. There is a firm audio indicator that something has been solved, but by necessity it seems to come a good few seconds after the solution has been found. To give a made-up example, you might need to set a watch to the correct time, but the game can\u2019t let you just spin the hands until you happen upon it, so you need to get the right time and leave it for a good few seconds before it actually triggers the effect for completing it. Which is fine in principle, but the delay is long enough you might walk away thinking it hadn\u2019t worked. And in a non-linear game like this one, you might have people working on things all over the place \u2013 so now we know one of us has solved a puzzle, but who? This feeds in to the second part of it: it\u2019s not immediately apparent what solving the puzzle has got you. You\u2019ll need to look around the space to see what has unlocked \u2013 the connections are not always obvious. Put these two issues together, and you can actually end up in a position where two of you are working on different puzzles, something happens in the room and so you know one of you has solved the puzzle, but you\u2019re not entirely sure who, so you don\u2019t actually even know what puzzle you\u2019ve now completed. Or maybe neither of you did and it was one of those aforementioned random timer events!\nIt\u2019s worth saying none of this was obvious at the time: we were mostly enjoying it, and just had a couple of moments of confusion where we weren\u2019t sure if we had something right or not. But it\u2019s interesting to talk about. The game essentially networks the entire space together, which is cool, but there are problems in design that rooms that don\u2019t do this have already solved by necessity. Padlocks aside, if puzzle A is clearly connected to item B, it\u2019s clear that solving A will make B do something. So I\u2019ll know when A is complete. If solving A could cause literally anything to happen in the entire space, then that\u2019s a bit different. It\u2019s all easy enough to overcome by just making the connections more thematic, or having the puzzles themselves give obvious feedback when they\u2019re done (by changing colour or such) \u2013 indeed, the game already does a bit of this with audio cues to direct you to look in certain places.\nThe last thing worth saying is the flip side to the fact that this didn\u2019t get in the way much when we played, and that is, it didn\u2019t add anything to the game. It makes no difference to me as a player if the room is cleverly detecting when I do the right thing, or a member of staff is just carefully watching me ready to manually trigger the appropriate effect. In some ways, \u201ccheating\u201d like that can feel better. In the above made up example with the watch, it\u2019s easy for a staff member to hear someone shout \u201ctry 4.45 on the watch\u201d and then see someone try it, and trigger the right thing immediately because they know the puzzle has been solved. Not something a machine can do.\nThat all sounds quite negative, but it\u2019s not. This game is trying something interesting, and if you\u2019re an escape room owner it\u2019s probably doubly worth your time to see a very different approach to building a game. For a player, it\u2019s just a really good game with the odd slightly awkward bit, which is par for the course in most games, automated or not.\n(Okay one last thing. When writing up this review I realised they\u2019re actually called Ctrl Alt Esc styled in exactly that way. They\u2019re not Ctrl Alt Escape. Although I guess when you pronounce Ctrl you say Control. But I don\u2019t pronounce Esc as Escape, it\u2019s more essk.

This almost lost art is becoming more popular as more and more people are learning the techniques once again. Formerly used primarily to create stunning and elegant signs, picture frames and the like, gold leafing is now being incorporated into etched glass gift items, glass artwork, awards and much more.\nThis amazing book is a storehouse of information for those wanting to learn gold leafing. With 168 pages, it features a whole section on gold leafing on glass, as well as information on applying gold leaf to opaque substrates such as wood and metal. The book is a must-have reference manual as well as an instruction book for all who do gold leafing.",

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other federal nondiscrimination statutes prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin, disability, age, gender, or income status in the provisions of benefits and services of programs and activities receiving federal funding. One of the key purposes of Title VI is to ensure that public funds are not spent in a way that encourages, subsidizes, or results in discrimination.\u200b\u200b More information about Title VI can be found on this page.\n\u200bThe first tab shows the distribution of \"Communities of Concern\" as defined by Title VI.

ACS margins of error are based on a 90-percent confidence level, and confidence bounds can be created by adding or subtracting the MOE from each estimate. For some detailed tabulations, and especially for smaller geographies, MOEs can be quite large relative to the estimate. The statistics shown on these dashboards are typically generated from multiple estimates, each of which has its own MOE. Some of the dashboard elements provide links to the ACS source tables, where individual estimates and MOEs can be found. Note that for Block Groups that lie partially within the CLMPO area, ACS estimates were apportioned accordingly, and may not match data found in source tables.",

        "raw_content": "Given my interest in blunt cerebrovascular injuries (BCVI), we then met with one of the chief radiologists and interventionists to discuss several recent cases and their screening algorithm for BCVI. Rather than the trauma surgeon driving the decision for computed tomography angiogram (CTA) imaging of the vasculature, the radiologist determines whether the patient has an injury pattern that triggers BCVI screening during their initial trauma CT scans.\nIf such an injury is identified, CTA to evaluate for a BCVI is done while the patient is still on the CT scanner. With the implementation of a radiology-driven screening process, the identification of injuries has markedly increased.\nI rounded out the day with a lecture at a noontime conference. The trauma group, emergency medicine physicians, intensivists, house staff, and registrars were in attendance.\nRACS Annual Scientific Congress\nThe 2017 RACS Annual Scientific Congress took place in Adelaide.\nI attended the convocation of the Congress at the opening of the meeting, and sitting between RACS Past-Presidents Profs.\nCivil and Bruce Barraclough, MB, BS, FACS, FRACS, I learned of the interesting history of RACS. The RACS is particularly focused on surgical education and training and emphasizes a varied training experience that provides exposure to a range of patient populations, hospital environments, and locales.\nMany in the RACS leadership spoke about the importance of mentorship and educating the next generation, particularly in the area of professionalism. As mentioned previously, I think RACS surgeons are particularly effective in this regard given the length of resident rotations, which afford trainees an in-depth experience.\nThe themes of collaboration, respect, and professionalism were echoed in the address by RACS President Prof. Philip Truskett, MB, BS, FACS, FRACS. He reminded us that, as surgeons, we should be willing both to ask for help and to answer the call for help, emphasizing that there is more to being a surgeon than technical skill.\nBefore performing my official duties at the RACS Congress, I spent a morning with the trauma service at the Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH). Cases from the trauma service for the last week were presented, and we discussed the indications for resuscitative thoracotomy, the role of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta, and the utility of laparotomy in the trauma bay. The RAH serves as the Level I trauma center for the state of South Australia (one of seven states in Australia).

        "raw_content": "Business group sees opportunity\nFAIRMONT \u2014 The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce will focus its state lobbying efforts on four fronts this year.\nTransportation, workplace regulations and affordability, which encompasses workforce housing and childcare, will be hot topics at the Legislature, but the spotlight will highlight tax competitiveness.\n\u201cWe really think, in combination with the federal tax reform which was passed in December and with the state\u2019s surplus, that Minnesota not only has an opportunity but a need to right-size our tax system and give some money back to the individuals and businesses that contributed to the surplus. Everybody will benefit, from employers to employees,\u201d said Jim Pumarlo, communications director for the Minnesota Chamber.\nPumarlo was in Fairmont on Tuesday and met with Margaret Dillard, president of the Fairmont Area Chamber of Commerce, and local Chamber board members Deb Barnes, administrator at Lakeview Methodist Health Care Center, and Dave Cone, CEO of Kahler Automation.\nMinnesota has four personal income tax brackets, with the top rate of 9.85 percent registering as fourth-highest in the nation.\n\u201cOur lowest personal income tax rate is 5.35 percent, and that is still higher than the top rate in 23 other states,\u201d Pumarlo said.\nThe state\u2019s top corporate income tax rate of 9.8 percent is the third-highest in the country, but Gov. Mark Dayton is pushing for a 20 percent increase on corporate taxpayers, as well as unwinding tax relief measures passed last year, Pumarlo said. He cautioned against thinking only Fortune 500 companies paid the corporate tax rate. Minnesota has 17 Fortune 500 companies, but more than three-fourths of the state\u2019s 35,000 small businesses, which also pay the rate, have gross receipts of less than $1 million annually.\n\u201cWe\u2019re working hard with legislative leadership,\u201d he said. \u201cWe think there\u2019s interest in moving on a path for making Minnesota more competitive.\u201d\nThe Minnesota Chamber is developing a specific proposal, but even a half a percent decrease would be a start. When coupled with the federal tax cuts, companies would have some financial flexibility to reinvest by expanding or by boosting employee wages and benefits, Pumarlo said.\n\u201cWe had a good legislative session last year, but you don\u2019t do things in one fell swoop. You do things in incremental progression so we will continue to work on how to make Minnesota businesses more competitive,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is almost a once-in-a-generation opportunity \u2014 and need \u2014 to start on the path to making Minnesota companies more competitive with their peers.\u201d\nPumarlo noted that the last major corporate tax reform occurred in 1987 under Gov. Rudy Perpich, a Democrat, following federal reform spearheaded by President Ronald Reagan, a Republican.\n\u201cWe\u2019re hoping this year can be the same kind of bipartisan work,\u201d he said.\nAs head of Kahler Automation, Cone said it can be difficult to attract employees to a rural area without the amenities and shopping of larger cities plus high income taxes.\n\u201cWe struggle with that, and there are other businesses here dealing with the same thing,\u201d he said.\nThe company\u2019s two largest competitors in Indiana and Iowa don\u2019t have that same burden.\n\u201cEach dollar we sell results in a higher rate of tax, and that does limit us in trying to reinvest in our business,\u201d Cone said. \u201cIt\u2019s very challenging.\u201d\nHe told about one of Kahler\u2019s customers that moved its entire operation from Minneapolis to a Wisconsin site 45 miles away.\n\u201cIt was all due to the corporate tax rate,\u201d he said.\n\u201cMinnesota has a strong quality of life, but how much is enough?\u201d Pumarlo said. \u201cYou reach that tipping point. Every year, there is a new regulation or a higher cost of doing business.\u201d\n\u201cWe all like our quality of life,\u201d said Cone, citing the safety, education system and recreation in the area. \u201cBut at the end of the day, it would sure be nice to have a balance between the quality of life and taxes.\u201d\nBarnes said that 65,000 people in the state turn 65 every year.\n\u201cIn the last 10 years, the 55 to 64 age group grew from 18,000 to 30,000 in this region,\u201d she said, expressing concern on how to replenish the workforce when younger people leave for states with lower taxes, following the companies that are located there.\nBarnes asked Pumarlo about the availability of a letter template to send to legislators.\n\u201cIf they had a letter from every Chamber member, that would speak volumes,\u201d she said.\nWorking through the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce is a huge advantage for local chambers such as Fairmont, Dillard said.\n\u201cIt helps to be able to have a voice larger than just us. We don\u2019t have the dollars that you (Minnesota Chamber) do to get legislators\u2019 attention,\u201d she said.\nPumarlo encouraged business owners and residents to support a more competitive corporate tax rate as well as lower individual tax rates.\n\u201cWe need to start on the path of reducing the rates,\u201d he said. \u201cContact your legislators or the Chamber. There\u2019s no better avenue than working through Margaret and your local Chamber.\u201d\u00ad",

        "raw_content": "The Tricks You're Not (But Should Be) Using To Grow Your Wealth\nYou might think that you have to be rich to start building wealth seriously. Some people are just lucky to have enough money to reach investment options. Then they can start using them to generate even more cash. The wheel keeps on spinning and your situation doesn\u2019t change. The fact is that most people have the power to grow their wealth without realizing it. We\u2019ll look at a few ways below.\nIt\u2019s the golden rule of wealth building, but not everyone has heard of it. You might think \u2018but I spend most of my money for myself\u2019. That\u2019s not paying yourself first. It\u2019s about contributing towards financial growth before any money starts going out. Not after you\u2019ve paid rent, bought groceries and treated yourself. Make a budget to see how much you can afford to pay yourself first. Pay it out as soon as you get a paycheck, so it\u2019s not lingering in your bank account, liable to be spent.\nDo a credit cleanup\nOver a lifetime, bad credit is going to cause you a lot of financial headaches. Yet there are a few tips to cleaning up your record you might not have considered. You already know it\u2019s important to pay loans on time. But did you know that it damages your credit to keep open credit cards that you\u2019re not using? Or that paying loans off early can also negatively affect your score? Even being on the electoral role can improve your credit score.\nIf you own a home or a car, you have some serious money making potential there already. For instance, with your home, consider renting out space for storage. Whether it\u2019s in the loft or the driveway, there are a lot of people willing to pay for usable space. This option is, however, better for those who have already paid off their mortgage. In some cases, it can even be tax free income.\nSavings and fixed income investments are safe ways to grow your wealth slowly. But what if you could take the security of those investments but benefit from a lot more growth? There are many wealth management products available in overseas banks. For instance, you can get the same fixed income investment deal. But because of globalization and rise of overseas economies far faster than established ones, you end up with a lot more interest.\nStarting a business is perhaps one of the most reliable ways to have a crack at taking control of your own finances. But you don\u2019t have to quit your day job and put all your effort towards a risky new venture. Instead, consider the many side businesses you can easily run from your own home in your space time. Get used to how to run a business while still relying on your primary income. That experience can greatly benefit you when you decide to really take off on your own.\nBuilding wealth requires nothing but discipline and a little ingenuity. There are methods everyone can use, no matter their situation, to earn more. Hopefully, the tips above help you find yours.\nLabels: Assets, Business, Credit Score, Economy, Growth, Investments, Money, Property, Savings, Wealth",

        "raw_content": "Researcher in Residence, 2005\nA research project on the temporal and spatial design of new media-based installation art, its perception and influence on the visitor's behavior\nSusanne Jaschko is a Berlin-based independent curator and researcher in media art. From 2000-2004 she was deputy director and curator at transmediale \u2013 international media art festival berlin. Her curatorial and scientific work predominantly focuses on interactive art and the digital moving image. Her work with the festival primarily involved curating the exhibitions and strengthening international collaborations.\nShe has been a guest lecturer at the Statens Kunstakadmie in Oslo, Norway, and Leipzig University, Germany, where she taught in the department of media science and communication. She also teaches internationally and makes presentations on media art and culture.\nMs. Jaschko holds a Ph.D. from the Rheinisch-Westf\u00e4lische Hochschule Aachen, Germany, where she wrote her thesis on Self-portraiture and self-understanding in the painting of the GDR from 1945 to the '80s.\nMs. Jaschko\u2019s research project at the Daniel Langlois Foundation\u2019s Centre for Research and Documentation (CR+D) will focus on the spatial \"reality\" of works of art.\nHer research will be based on the substantial resources at the CR+D, such as the Steina and Woody Vasulka fonds and most notably the video installations. It will also draw from the general documentation available on projects that have been supported by the Foundation, such as those by Jessica Loseby, Luc Courchesne, David Rokeby and Adam Zaretsky.\nMs. Jaschko\u2019s objectives are to analyze relevant historic and current media art pieces and their respective spatial and temporal conditions and to show the artistic development from early works to contemporary pieces in reflecting on those conditions. Her aim is to reveal the differences between the expected and actual behavior of visitors in time and space-based media art works and in doing so support the refinement of future art production. The cultural differences in the temporal and spatial character of the works will be determined by applying an intercultural perspective. By discovering and unfolding patterns and principles of temporal and spatial design that help to define and categorize media art installations, Ms. Jaschko hopes to raise awareness about the relevance of a work\u2019s temporal and spatial dimensions and perceptions and enhance curatorial work with new media art. And finally, by closing the gap between conventional technology-orientated research on media art and contemporary art theory/science, she is confident that the teaching of media art theory and practice can be improved.\nSusanne Jaschko:\nhttp://www.sujaschko.de/en/",

While drinking coffee in PANATO\u2019s caf\u00e9 one can see the place full of artistic products: caps, T-shirts, handbags, dresses, watching the process of their design and production; also you can observe the most up-to-date 3D printer producing, for example, an artificial limb, namely a hand for a child (this child, while growing, will keep subsequently changing the limb to a larger one, so it is critical to keep the process at low cost).\nOn top of that the team operates as a real team, not as a simple sum of artists: they discuss each obstacle, brainstorm on the future strategy, make unanimous decisions. In that way they build a strong social capital, becoming a model example of cooperation and trust which are foundational to market and social success.",

        "raw_content": "Artificial Intelligence: Philosophy or Science\nIs artificial intelligence more like science or philosophy?\nScience and philosophy both strive to increase our knowledge and understanding. But they deal with different types of questions. Science deals with questions that have an agreed-upon systematic method for answering those questions. Conversely, philosophy deals with questions that currently lack a systematic method for answering those questions. However, when a certain amount of progress is made on a philosophical topic, that topic can sometimes shed the label of philosophy and adopt the label of science. This happens when philosophical work is adopted by other well-established disciplines, or when philosophical work develops enough such that we are more confident in calling it a science. An example of this evolution from philosophy to science is illustrated by the fact that scientists used to be called \"natural philosophers\".\nIn this respect, artificial intelligence is more like philosophy than science. In the history of computer science, the label \"artificial intelligence\" has been used to refer to various technical projects. However, once those projects became well understood, they shed the label \"AI\" and adopted new labels. Examples include object-oriented programming, speech recognition, robot motion planning, facial recognition and other vision processing algorithms used in photography, industrial robotics, security, and cinema. (Examples from Jeffrey Bradshaw). The popular media still refer to some of these technologies as \"AI\", but the label of AI has ceased to be useful for professionals working in those fields.\nThis phenomenon has been called the \"AI effect\". The AI effect is not new. In 1979, Douglas Hofstadter wrote,\n\"It is interesting that nowadays, practically no one feels that sense of awe any longer \u2014 even when computers perform operations that are incredibly more sophisticated than those which sent thrills down spines in the early days. The once-exciting phrase \u201cGiant Electronic Brain\u201d remains only as a sort of \u201ccamp\u201d clich\u00e9, a ridiculous vestige of the era of Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. It is a bit sad that we become blas\u00e9 so quickly. There is a related \u201cTheorem\u201d about progress in AI: once some mental function is programmed, people soon cease to consider it as an essential ingredient of \u201creal thinking.\u201d The ineluctable core of intelligence is always in that next thing which hasn\u2019t yet been programmed. This \u201cTheorem\u201d was first proposed to me by Larry Tesler, so I call it Tesler\u2019s Theorem: \u201cAI is whatever hasn\u2019t been done yet.\u201d\nThe technology writer Kevin Kelly, author of The Inevitable, echoed this sentiment: \u201cWhat we can do now would be A.I. fifty years ago. What we can do in fifty years will not be called A.I.\u201d\nAI is more philosophy than science in another way. In both philosophy and artificial intelligence, there is a lack of expert agreement. According to the philosopher John Searle, \"The fact that philosophical questions tend to be those for which there is no generally accepted procedure of solution also explains why there is no agreed-upon body of expert opinion in philosophy.\" The lack of expert opinion on issues related to AI is illustrated by public comments from tech leaders on the dangers and risks of AI.\nIn one camp, you have those that are so optimistic about our progress in AI that they are pessimistic about what it can become. These include notable figures such as Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and Stephen Hawking. Musk said, \"With artificial intelligence, we are summoning the demon,\" and AI is \u201cour biggest existential threat\u2026The risk of something seriously dangerous happening is in the five year timeframe. 10 years at most.\u201d Bill Gates chimed in saying, \"I agree with Elon Musk and some others on this and don't understand why some people are not concerned.\" The late Stephen Hawking said, \"The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race... It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever-increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded.\"\nOn the other side of this debate, there is Andrew Ng, one of the most respected AI experts in the world who said, \"There's also a lot of hype, that AI will create evil robots with super intelligence. That's an unnecessary distraction.\" He also said that worrying about evil AIs is like worrying about overpopulation on mars.\" AI and robotics pioneer Rodney Brooks questioned the credentials of those in the first camp: \"I think it's very easy for people who are not deep in the technology itself to make generalizations, which may be a little dangerous. And we've certainly seen that recently with Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Stephen Hawking, all saying AI is just taking off and it's going to take over the world very quickly. And the thing that they share is none of them work in this technological field.\" Mark Zuckerberg responding to people in the first camp called their doomsday scenarios \"pretty irresponsible.\u201d\nThere currently is no consensus for how to resolve the above disagreements in a systematic way. This means that we need to be even more careful in discerning when these public figures are speaking as scientists and credentialed technologists, and when they are just sharing their opinions for which they have little or no credentials. Examining the philosophical premises underlying claims about AI should empower us to question if these public intellectuals have the relevant philosophical expertise to discuss these issues responsibly. I am sure Stephen Hawking was brilliant as an expert on black holes. Elon Musk sure seems like a genius when it comes to starting tech companies. And, Bill Gates' wealth reveals his business and software expertise. However, their respective areas of expertise do not automatically translate into insightful or authoritative opinions on AI.\nWhile artificial intelligence may be conflated with science, it has often caused more confusion than clarity. Michael I. Jordan\u2014computer science professor at UC Berkeley\u2014recently wrote, \u201cthis is not the classical case of the public not understanding the scientists\u200a\u2014\u200ahere the scientists are often as befuddled as the public.\u201d This is because questionable philosophical assumptions hitchhike on the underbelly of scientific progress. According to the AI historian Margaret Boden, \"some computer scientists deliberately reject [the] label 'AI'\" because the label contains too much philosophical baggage. Even John McCarthy, who coined the term \"Artificial Intelligence\" in 1955 said that he regretted the term and wished that he had chosen something else.\nJust because a question is more philosophical than scientific, it doesn't mean we can't make progress. It just means that we have to be even more precise and rigorous in our analysis. Improving our analysis means making our philosophical premises more explicit. It means breaking apart concepts that are often lumped together but are better understood separately. It means being extra clear about the terms we use and how we use them. It can even mean abandoning terms that create more confusion than clarity. Applying these techniques to the analysis of AI mean separating the engineering and the cognitive approaches to AI. It means agreeing on clear definitions for weak vs strong AI and questioning existing distinctions such as narrow vs general AI. Perhaps it even means joining the computer scientists that reject the label 'AI' given that the label creates more confusion than clarity. As AI hype dies down, more machine learning professionals are spurning the phrase. One machine learning friend of mine recently remarked rather frankly , \"The term artificial intelligence is stupid.\" Perhaps like we are stuck with the label until the next AI winter, but shedding it for good may help advance both clear philosophy and sound science.\nArtificial Intelligence: Cognitive vs. Engineering Approaches\nArtificial Intelligence - Narrow AI vs. General AI\nIn Artificial Intelligence, Technology Tags Artificial Intelligence, AI, Philosophy, Science, Consciousness\nThe mathematician John McCarthy is often credited with coining the term \u201cArtificial Intelligence\u201d. He described the problem of Artificial Intelligence as \u201cthat of making a machine behave in ways that would be called intelligent if a human were so behaving.\u201d He used the term in a 1955 research proposal for the Dartmouth Summer Research Conference on Artificial Intelligence which took place the following year. Since the Conference, there have been many comments made by technologists comparing the potential of computers to human abilities. A notable contributor to AI, Herbert Simon, said in 1965, \u201c\u2026machines will be capable, within twenty years, of doing any work a man can do.\u201d Marvin Minsky who was a participant in the original Dartmouth Conference said in 1970, \u201cIn from three to eight years we will have a machine with the general intelligence of an average human being.\u201d\nThe human-comparison\u2014expressed as a research project\u2014comes in two flavors. The first approach has been called the cognitive (also 'psychological') approach to AI. The goal of this approach is to create actual thinking machines. This sentiment was expressed by the philosopher John Haugeland in his 1985 book \u201cArtificial Intelligence: The Very Idea\u201d:\n\u201cThe fundamental goal of this research is not merely to mimic intelligence or produce some clever fake. Not at all. \u201cAI\u201d wants only the genuine article: machines with minds, in the full and literal sense.\u201d\nThe second approach has been called the engineering (or technological) approach to AI. This second approach does not claim to literally reproduce human intelligence. Instead it's aim is to use computers to perform tasks with more practical application. Elaine Rich and Kevin Knight wrote in their 1991 book \u201cArtificial Intelligence\u201d, \u201cAI is the study of how to make computers do things at which, at the moment, people are better.\u201d Ray Kurzweil has described AI as \u201cThe art of creating machines that perform functions that require intelligence when performed by people.\u201d\nAccording to the philosopher Luciano Floridi, these approaches represent the \u201ctwo souls of AI\u201d that both claim a single common heritage in the Dartmouth Summer Research Conference on Artificial Intelligence. The cognitive approach to AI attempts to emulate human consciousness. While the engineering approach attempts to only simulate some aspect of intelligent human behavior at best. Strong AI is the hypothesis that the cognitive approach will be successful using computers alone. Weak AI claims that the engineering approach to computer AI is sufficient to simulate intelligent human behavior.\nAdvances in AI using the engineering approach have been a stunning success. It has given us remarkable technology that makes our lives more convenient such as predicitive typing on our mobile devices. On the other hand, the cognitive approach to AI has been a dismal failure. According to Jerry Kaplan, an AI expert at Stanford University, \"Little more than speculation and wishful thinking ties the actual work in AI to the mysterious workings of the human mind.\u201d\nThe distinction between the engineering and cognitive approaches to AI is not explicit and many suppose that these different research projects are the same. Because of this conflation, it is naturally assumed that progress in one approach means progress in the other, but this is not the case. It is a mistake to assume that there is a natural progression from the current work on computer technology to creating conscious machines. If it is possible to create an artificial conscious machine, a completely different technology than computers will be needed. Trying to use computer-technology to create consciousness will be as fruitful as trying to make a chair out of helium gas. It is simply the wrong approach.\nMarvin Minsky quoted in LIFE magazine 1970\nJohn Haugeland, Artificial Intelligence: The Very Idea (MIT Press 1985), 2.\nStuart Russell and Peter Norvig , Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach (PearsonEducation, 2003), 2.\nLuciano Floridi, The Fourth Revolution: How the Infosphere is Reshaping Human Reality (Oxford University Press, 2014), 140.\nIn Artificial Intelligence Tags AI, Artificial Intelligence, Consciousness\nIn pop-technology writings, it is common to read about a distinction made between what is called Artificial Narrow Intelligence and Artificial General Intelligence\u2014often abbreviated as ANI and AGI respectively. The terms are meant to refer to categories of machines\u2014both existing and hypothetical. The distinction is problematic and the terms are often used with little precision or consistency.\n\u201cGeneral AI\u201d is often described as \u201chuman-level AI\u201d. Though only hypothetical, its crowning feature is a general problem solving ability that enables it to learn new tasks across several domains. This feature is emphasized so frequently that those who talk about general AI seem to assume that this is the most relevant feature of human intelligence. Sometimes the term \u201cGeneral AI\u201d is used synonymously with \u201cStrong AI\u201d (not to be confused with its original meaning). The concept of General AI is ambiguous between the simulation/emulation distinction. Is human-level AI human-like in terms of its power to simulate human speech and behavior? Or, is it human-like because it can emulate human intelligence and consciousness? Understanding the difference will be important for future legal, ethical, and social concerns.\nWhen people refer to existing technology as \u2018AI\u201d, they often classify it as \u201cNarrow AI\u201d. It is called narrow because it performs tasks that normally require human intelligence, but can only perform tasks in a very specific and narrowly defined domain. The common example is a chess program that can only \u201cplay\u201d chess, but cannot learn how to do anything else. \u201cNarrow AI\u201d is often used synonymously with the term \u2018Weak AI\u2019 (again not to be confused with its original meaning). The concept of Narrow AI is problematic for 2 reasons.\nFirst, it is a moving target. There are many computer systems that can perform tasks that normally require human intelligence and in a narrow domain, but we don\u2019t consider them to be AI. A simple pocket calculator is such an example. If you compare the speed and accuracy of a pocket calculator to human capabilities, then a pocket calculator is super intelligent. But, we don\u2019t think of a pocket calculator as artificially intelligent even though it fits the above description of Narrow AI. Some may object that current AI technologies are more complex than a pocket calculator. What we currently call AI can process more complex inputs, can do more complex tasks, and have a wider range of responses to more complex situations. So is Narrow AI just a computer system that is more complex than previous computer systems? If so (and how it could be otherwise) then what happens when the technology becomes even more complex in 20 years from now? In 2038, we likely won\u2019t call 2018 technology \u2018AI\u2019. Our future view of current technology will be similar to our current view of technology of the past. Added complexity by itself is not sufficient to warrant a comparison between computer systems and human intelligence.\nSecond, there are many computers systems that people tend to call \u2018artificial intelligence\u2019 that perform tasks that people can\u2019t perform at all. For example, a tsunami warning system can detect oceanic changes that are imperceptible to humans. AlphaGo\u2014a go-playing computer\u2014can detect patterns unnoticeable to humans and can make moves in a very un-human-like way. These and other examples of \u2018narrow AI\u2019 question the usefulness of comparing computers and humans.\nThe term \u201cArtificial Intelligence\u201d was coined by John McCarthy in 1955. He described the problem of Artificial Intelligence as \u201cthat of making a machine behave in ways that would be called intelligent if a human were so behaving.\u201d My previous 2 blog posts have been about some of the philosophical distinctions that arise the comparison between humans and computers. More than 60 years after the term was coined, it is unclear how useful the human-to-machine comparison has been, at least for our practical development of computer hardware and software. For most practical purposes, the comparison to humans is irrelevant. We have some task or job to be done, and we use computers to help us solve those problems.\nThe current field of artificial intelligence really isn't about emulating or even simulating human behavior unless you are talking about improving animatronic puppets or making video games more realistic. The current field of AI is really about advances in automation. According to Jerry Kaplan, an AI expert at Stanford University, \"Little more than speculation and wishful thinking ties the actual work in AI to the mysterious workings of the human mind.\"\nArtificial Intelligence: Weak AI vs. Strong AI\nThis post continues a philosophical examination of Artificial Intelligence started in the previous post.\nThe distinction between Weak and Strong AI refers to claims about the capabilities of computers. Popular uses of the terms \u2018Weak AI\u2019 and \u2018Strong AI\u2019 are less carefully defined than their academic uses. The original terms were coined by the philosopher John Searle in 1980. Weak AI is the hypothesis that a powerful enough computer could simulate any aspect of the human mind. Strong AI\u2014in its original intended definition\u2014is the hypothesis that \"the brain is a digital computer, and the mind is a computer program\". This view implies that if a programmer types the right program into a computer console, then that program would emulate (be equivalent to) a human mind.\nImagine that we created a robot that was built with powerful computer hardware and software. Imagine that the robot was so life-like in appearance that it was indistinguishable from a human being in movement and speech. Those who accept Weak AI but reject Strong AI would say that it is logically possible to create such a computer-powered robot, but it could only ever simulate human intelligence. No matter how much computer technology advanced in the future, it could never literally be intelligence or aware, nor could it have any intrinsic rationality. It would just be a metal and silicon zombie.\nSome assume Strong AI and believe that creating consciousness is simply a matter of creating the right computer program (Philosophers Daniel Dennett and David Chalmers). Others reject the view that consciousness is intrinsically computational but accept Weak AI that computers could hypothetically simulate any aspect of human consciousness (John Searle). Others reject both Strong and Weak AI believing that there are some aspects of the human mind that not even a computer could simulate (Mathematical physicist Roger Penrose).\nWeak AI Computer software + hardware alone can simulate every aspect of a human mind.\nComputer software + hardware alone can emulate a human mind.\nOne can reject either Strong AI or Weak AI and still believe that we could hypothetically create an artificial machine that could literally be conscious. However, that machine could not be a computer. It would have to be a machine that is much more powerful than a computer. According to one theory, a machine could emulate the human mind if it reproduced the causal mechanisms of the human brain that cause consciousness (assuming we will eventually understand how those mechanisms work). More on this in later posts.\nArtificial Intelligence: Simulation vs. Emulation\nWhat if we could make a machine that behaved like humans, or even had thoughts and feelings like humans? When we talk about Artificial Intelligence, we often think in these terms. We think about some man-made machine\u2014existing or hypothetical\u2014and we compare some aspect of that machine to some aspect of human beings. This comparison can lead to engaging stories, but it can also lead to confusion about what our technology means and what its implications are for society. This post addresses the first of 5 distinctions that I believe are necessary to discuss AI clearly and responsibly, at least from a philosophical point of view. The 5 distinctions are:\nSimulation vs. Emulation\nWeak AI vs. Strong AI\nNarrow AI vs. General AI\nObserver-relative vs. Observer-independent features of reality.\nIn one sense, AI is thought to simulate some aspect of human appearance or behavior. \u2018Simulate\u2019 as it is used here is synonymous with imitate, mimic, pretend, or \u2018give the appearance of\u2019. In another sense people think of AI as doing more than just mimicking human behavior. They think of AI as actually emulating some aspect of human mental life. In this context, emulate means to reproduce or duplicate the functions of system in a way that is practically identical to the thing being emulated.\nThe difference between simulation and emulation can be clarified by another distinction between the 2 ways in which we use the word \u201cArtificial\u201d. In one sense, the word \u201cartificial\u201d refers to something that is not real, only an imitation. For example, artificial butter is not real butter but only an imitation of the real thing. In this sense \u2018artificial\u2019 is contrasted with \u2018real\u2019. \u2018Artificial\u2019 can also refer to something that is real but produced by artificial means. For example, artificial diamonds, also called synthetic or lab-grown diamonds, are real diamonds. They are identical in terms of being made of the same material (pure carbon) and having the same structure (crystallized in isotropic 3D form). They just aren\u2019t produced via natural geological processes. In this sense \u2018artificial\u2019 is contrasted to \u2018natural\u2019. So artificial can either mean \u201cnot real\u201d or \u201cnot natural\u201d.\nAI that simulates intelligence is \u201cnot-real intelligence\u201d. Used in this way, the word \u201cintelligence\u201d is only figurative or metaphorical. AI that emulates intelligence is \u201cnot-natural intelligence\u201d but it is still real. This is a literal usage of word \u201cintelligence\u201d.\nSimulation AI\nArtificial in the sense that it is not real, only an imitation.\nEmulation AI Artificial in the sense of being real, but not produced by natural means\nImagine that we created a machine that is literally intelligent in sense of being practically identical to a human in terms of intelligence. This would be an Emulation AI as described above. Such a machine would also include whatever is necessary for literal human-like intelligence to exist such as conscious awareness, desires, intentions, rationality and perhaps even emotions. By contrast, those intrinsic features would be missing in a Simulation AI even though we may talk as if it had awareness or rationality. This distinction shows that the Turing test is no help in identifying whether or not a machine is truly intelligent. For the test provides no criteria for identifying whether a machine that could pass the Turing test is an emulation of true intelligence or merely a simulation.\nIn his biography of Leonardo DaVinci, Walter Isaacson points to a theme that Leonardo returned to often\u2014understanding how human beings fit into the grand order of the universe. This theme was made most explicit in Leonardo's drawing of the Vitruvian man. Leonardo studied art and science with the most intense curiosity to understand the connection between our own nature and the universe.\nOur knowledge of art and science has grown immensely since Leonardo. And yet the same question is still with us. How do we fit in with our conception of the universe? We think of ourselves as conscious beings possessing rationality, creativity, meaning, and free will, while we think of the universe as purely mechanistic, consisting wholly of mindless, meaningless, physical particles in fields of force. 1 The question of 'how we fit in' is one of the central questions of contemporary science and philosophy. The key to making sense of how we fit in with the universe lies in understanding the nature of consciousness.\nThere are many theories that attempt to explain what consciousness is, how it works, and how the mental relates to the physical. These theories go by the following names: substance dualism, property dualism, materialism, physicalism, computationalism, functionalism, behaviorism, epiphenomenalism, cognitivism, eliminativism, panpsychism, biological naturalism and more. There is currently no consensus among experts about which theory is most correct, and there are many unanswered questions about consciousness. Some even argue that we can never fully understand it.\nCurrently, the study of consciousness is more of a philosophical issue than a scientific issue. Philosophy differs from science in that science tries to answer questions for which there is a systematic or agreed-upon way of answering those questions. Philosophy, on the other hand, deals with questions for which there is no systematic way of answering those questions. This doesn't mean that consciousness can never be a scientific issue. All issues that are now scientific were once philosophical issues and all scientific question rest on philosophical premises. We currently do not have a scientific definition of what consciousness is. We only have a common-sense definition. To illustrate the difference between scientific definitions and common-sense definitions, consider water. A scientific definition of water is that it is H2O. A common-sense definition of water is that it is a colorless, tasteless, liquid. We can still understand a lot about water with just a common-sense definition. It is the same with consciousness.\nIn my experience, people often resist defining consciousness. In some cases, it seems that they assume that if there is no scientific definition then you cannot meaningfully talk about consciousness at all. I think this is mistaken. We can make a lot of progress even if the concepts we are using are not fully understood. This is more common in science than many people think. I believe that we can give a definition of consciousness that is a useful starting place even if it is not perfect or fully complete.\nA common-sense definition of consciousness goes something like this: Consciousness is our everyday experience of awareness or sentience. It is our experience of reality as well as our own 'inner' states such as dreams or pains.\nConsciousness is often described by what we experience through our senses\u2014hearing a bird singing, looking at the sky, feeling rain on your face, touching a rose, etc. Consciousness involves feelings and emotions or bodily sensations such as a tickle or a toothache. A specific conscious experience can be pleasant or unpleasant.\nConsciousness is also subjective, meaning that it is experienced by a subject or agent. In technical terms, consciousness has a 'first-person ontology'. Just because it is subjective does not mean it cannot be studied by science. There can be an objective science (in an epistemological sense) about a domain that is subjective (in an ontological sense). Even though we can have a science of subjectivity, it is the greatest challenge to a scientific understanding of consciousness.\nConsciousness is not limited what is sometimes called self-consciousness. One can have a basic form of consciousness without being self-conscious, though one cannot be self-conscious without having basic consciousness. Consciousness is not limited to humans. Most people find the claim that animals have consciousness to be uncontroversial. But we don't know if every creature has consciousness. Elephants, Dogs, and mice are conscious, but what about termites and ameoba? Until we have a scientific explanation for the biological basis of consciousness, we won't know where the cutoff point is for a creature having conscious experience.\nWhat are the features of consciousness? (in addition to a few mentioned above)\nWhich theory of consciousness is most accurate / best explains our scientific understanding?\nWhat is the connection between consciousness and the brain? How does the brain cause conscious experience?\nIs the brain a digital computer? Is the mind a software program? Can a computer be conscious?\nHow do we understand the concept of the 'self'?\nHow do we explain our experience of free will? Do we even have free will?\nEverything that we value in life\u2014science, art, society, etc.\u2014depends on the existence of consciousness. Consciousness is the most important thing in our lives because it is a necessary condition for anything to be important to us at all.\n1. See Freedom and Neurobiology 2007\nIn Philosophy Tags Consciousness, Mind\nValue-based New Year's Resolutions\nI have set new year goals for most years of my adult life. The years that I did not set goals, I thought that I probably would not follow through or that I should be setting goals more consistently anyway, not just at the beginning of the year. However, when I have set annual goals, I have mostly found them to be helpful especially when I review them regularly throughout the year and keep track of my progress. Aligning goals to an annual timeframe helps me reflect over longer periods of time than I think I normally would.\nIn 2017 my goals were mostly uninspiring. I only fully completed about 30% of my goals and about 50% of them I didn't complete at all. The rest were only partially completed. Toward the end of the year, I realized that they were uninspiring to me because I did not do a good job of aligning my goals with my governing values.\nMy governing values reflect what matters most to me. They should guide my decisions more than any other factor. When I was younger and first read Stephen Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, I wrote down what I thought my values were as prompted by the book. I lost the list however and don't remember what I wrote. Since 2014, I have kept track of my own values in the form of value statements. Here is one of my value-statements:\nClear Thinking:\nRemove distraction\nAvoid confirmation bias\nFor me, it has not always been easy to identify my own values. Benjamin Franklin famously had his 13 virtues which he wrote when he was 20 years old. He originally started with 12 but added humility as a 13th later. Unlike Franklin, mine have evolved more dramatically over time. For instance, I add new ones as I reflect on what I enjoy doing and thinking about. Sometimes I combine a few similar value-statements into one to simplify my list. Other times I remove a value-statement from my list because it was something that I thought I should value, but ultimately was not very passionate about. At the beginning of this 2017, I had 11 value statements in my \u201cofficial\u201d list. A recent revision left me with only 7.\nI am much more excited about my goals this year compared to last year because (1) My recent revision of my value-statements is much clearer than it has ever been, and (2) I have tied those values to my 2018 goals. I did this in a list where I wrote down each value with specific goals that I feel connect to that value. Here is one example:\nWrite down big decisions and identify what I think the expected outcome of that decision will be. Compare my expected outcome to reality every month\nDevelop meditation habit (meditate 14 days in a row)\nI have added the worksheets that I made for myself on my Downloads page. You can print them out and keep use them for your own value and goal setting activities.\nSavings and lifestyle\nPrioritizing Savings\nWhy don't Americans save more?\nDo Americans save enough?\nIn Productivity Tags Productivity\nThe Expectation Problem of Human-like Interfaces\nFor more than six decades, many researchers and designers of computer programs have been inclined to make their computer interfaces appear intelligent and human-like. One of the assumptions behind this temptation is that since people already know how to interact with other people, then making a computer program act more like a person will improve the user experience. However, the experience of creating human-like computer programs together with research from the fields of design and computer science have presented challenges to this assumption.\nDesigning computer programs to look, sound, or behave more like humans is often talked about in terms of personification, humanization, or anthropomorphization. (These are separate concepts but they are often conflated.)There are many pitfalls associated with such approaches, but one of the most well-documented affects is that it causes users to expect that the computer program is \u201csmarter\u201d than it really is.\nI have captured a few quotes and references from specialists in the field and in academia about this effect:\nThe Reprentation of Agents, Anthropomorphism, Agency, and Intelligence by William King and Jun Ohya presents data from one of their experiments which suggests:\nAnthropomorphic [Human-like] \u2026forms may be problematic since they may be inherently interpretted as having a high degree of agency and intelligence.\nIn the book Make It So, authors Chris Noessel and Nathan Shedroff write:\nAnthropomorphism can mislead users and create unattainable expectations. Elements of anthropomorphism aren\u2019t necessarily more efficient or necessarily easier to use. Social behavior may suit the way we think and feel, but such interfaces require more cognitive, social, and emotional overhead of their users. They\u2019re much, much harder to build, as well. Finally, designers are social creatures themselves and must take care to avoid introducing their own cultural bias into their creations. These warnings lead us to the main lesson of this chapter.\nLesson: The more human the representation, the higher the expectations of human behavior.\nIn the MIT Press bestselling book Software Agents by Jeffrey Bradshaw, Don Norman wrote the following:\nIf the one aspect of people's attitudes about agents is fear over their capabilities and actions, the other is over-exaggerated expectations, triggered to a large extent because much more has promised than can be delivered. Why? Part of this is the natural enthusiasm of the researcher who sees far into the future and imagines a world of perfect and complete actions. Part of this is in the nature of people's tendency to false anthropomorphizing, seeing human attributes in any action that appears in the least intelligent. Speech recognition has this problem: develop a system that recognizes words of speech and people assume that the system has full language understanding, which is not at all the same thing. Have a system act as if it has its own goals and intelligence, and there is an expectation of full knowledge and understanding of human goals.\nThe problem is amplified by the natural tendency of researchers and manufacturers to show their agents in human form. You can imagine the advertisements: \"Want to schedule a trip, the new MacroAgent System offers you Helena, your friendly agent, ready to do your bidding.\" As soon as we put a human face into the model, perhaps with reasonably appropriate dynamic facial expressions, carefully tuned speech characteristics, and human-like language interactions, we build upon natural expectations for human-like intelligence, understanding, and actions.\nThere are some who believe that it is wrong \u2014 immoral even \u2014 to offer artificial systems in the guise of human appearance, for to do so makes false promises. Some believe that the more human-like the appearance and interaction style of the agent, the more deceptive and misleading it becomes: personification suggests promises of performance that cannot be met. I believe that as long as there is no deception, there is no moral problem. Be warned that this is a controversial area. As a result, it would not be wise to present an agent in human-like structures without also offering a choice to those who would rather not have them. People will be more accepting of intelligent agents if their expectations are consistent with reality. This is achieved by presenting an appropriate conceptual model \u2014 a \"system image\" \u2014 that accurately depicts the capabilities and actions.\nIn section 12.7 of the popular HCI textbook, Designing the User Interface, the authors write:\nThe words and graphics in user interfaces can make important differences in people\u2019s perceptions, emotional reactions, and motivations. Attributions of intelligence autonomy, free will, or knowledge to computers are appealing to some people, but to others such characterizations may be seen as deceptive, confusing, and misleading. The suggestion that computers can think, know, or understand may give users an erroneous model of how computers work and what the machines\u2019 capacities are. Ultimately, the deception becomes apparent, and users may feel poorly treated.\nBecause users naturally expect that human-like program are \u201csmarter\u201d than they really are, designers and marketers should be cautious when creating human-like interfaces. Some interfaces such as chatbots or voice interfaces make it impossible to avoid personification. In these instances, designers and marketers should set clear expectations to avoid user dissatisfaction. For example, one popular communication program \"Slack\" comes with a chat program called \"Slackbot\". Before users use Slackbot they are told \"Slackbot is pretty dumb, but it tries to be helpful.\" Similarly, it may be in the best interest of tech companies to refrain from marketing their products as \"smart\" or \"intelligent\" to avoid making the problem worse.\nAs a designer, I personally gravitate toward the principle 4 of calm technology as a means of avoiding some of the problems stated above. Principle 4 states that machines shouldn't act like humans, and humans shouldn't act like machines.\nWork from my students Fall 2014\nThis semester I taught Intro to Graphic Design at Brigham Young University.

She would often annoy other characters by repeatedly asking \"Why?\" until the characters became flustered and gave up trying to answer. She was annoying because she wasn't asking \"why?\" to gain understanding, but because she enjoyed pushing people's buttons. Unlike Mindy, genuinely curious people ask \"why?\" to arrive at an explanation. To explain something is to show why certain effects follow from certain causes. If we ask why enough, we will eventually arrive at an explanation that does not have any explanation itself. It seems all explanations bottom out in some cause that itself did not have a cause. Some have referred to this final explanation as the uncaused causer. \"Who or what is the uncaused causer?\" is the same question as \"Where do all explanations end?\" Atheism gives one answer, Traditional theism gives another. Mormonism seems to give an answer that is a hybrid of both atheism and traditional theism.\nVolitional vs. Non-volitional explanations\nThere are two ways to answer the question, \"Where do explanations end?\" Traditional theists such as Christians, Jews, and Muslims believe that all explanations end in a volitional explanation. I am using the word \"volition\" to refer to that which is caused by some being or agent.\nAtheists, on the other hand, believe in a non-volitional explanation. Explanations end in something like the laws of physics, or nature in general, (or even just gravity according to Stephen Hawking). Some atheists say that they simply don't know how to explain existence in general, but still hold that no volitional being could be the uncaused cause of the universe.\nFor example, if we ask the question \"why is the sky blue?\". We will come to some explanation that describes the behavior of lightwaves when they interact with particles in the atmosphere. After we come to that explanation we can ask, \"Why do lightwaves behave that way?\" Describing the laws of quantum electrodynamics might constitute an explanation for that question, but then we could just ask, \"why are the laws of quantum electrodynamics like that?\" An atheist will answer that nature is just that way and that is where explanations end. A traditional theist would answer that God created the laws that way and that is where explanations end.\nWhere do explanations end for Mormon theology?\nAccording to Mormon theology, some explanations end in non-volitional causes and some explanations end in volitional causes. How can this be? Mormon theology agrees with both Aristotle and Plato who argued that the world always existed and that God organized the world out of pre-existing unorganized matter. That pre-existing matter was not created out of nothing. It has no cause. It has always existed and therefore has no explanation. On this point, Mormon theology agrees with the belief of most atheists.\nThe first prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Joseph Smith, taught that God did not and in fact could not create the universe:\nGod had materials to organize the world out of chaos\u2014chaotic matter, which is element, and in which dwells all the glory. Element had an existence from the time He had. The pure principles of element are principles which can never be destroyed; they may be organized and re-organized, but not destroyed. They had no beginning and can have no end. (King Follett Discourse)\nAccording to the LDS scholar Sterling McMurrin who wrote Theological Foundations of the Mormon Religion:\n\u201cIt is a basic article of Mormon theology that God is related to a world environment for the being of which he is not the ultimate ground and by which he therefore is in some sense conditioned. This means that God is a being among beings rather than being as such or the ground of being, and that he is therefore finite rather than absolute.\u201d (Theological Foundations of the Mormon Religion)\nOrson Pratt who was an early Mormon church leader wrote:\n\u201cGod [in LDS thought] is described in non-absolutistic terms as a being who is conditioned by and related to the world of which he is a part and which, because it is not ultimately his creation, is not absolutely under his dominion \u2026 God\u2019s environment is the physical universe, the minds and selves which exist but are not identified with him, the principles under which reality is structured, and perhaps even the value absolutes which govern the divine will,\u201d\n\u201cThere are some things that cannot be performed, although we had the power of working great and mighty miracles; indeed, the great God Himself who has power to control the heavens over our heads, and the earth upon which we stand has NOT the power to do that which would be naturally impossible, or in opposition to the great, necessary, and fundamental truths of nature, which are eternally unalterable, and cannot be otherwise than they are,\u201d (JD 3:300).\nThere are many other quotes that confirm the Mormon belief that these explanations do not end in God, but instead end in the elements and principles of nature. No volitional being did or could have created them.\nHowever, according to most accounts of Mormon theology, volitional beings (spirits or intelligences) also were not created. All volitional beings are coeternal with the elements that have always existed. According to Joseph Smith:\nI might with boldness proclaim from the house-tops that God never had the power to create the spirit of man at all. God himself could not create himself. Intelligence is eternal and exists upon a self-existent principle. It is a spirit from age to age, and there is no creation about it. All the minds and spirits that God ever sent into the world are susceptible of enlargement. (King Follett Discourse)\nIf volitional beings are also uncreated, then their actions cannot themselves be reduced to non-volitional causes. Volition is simply part of uncreated nature. Therefore, some explanations end in the choices of volitional beings. For example, when we ask why a painting of the sky is blue, it is not satisfactory to appeal to the laws of quantum electrodynamics. Any explanation for why a painting is blue must account for the intentions of the painter who organized the paints on the canvas. The painting is blue because of the laws of nature AND because of the intentions of the painter. In Mormon theology, the answer to the question \"where did matter come from?\" ends in a non-volitional explanation. And, the answer to the question \"why was matter organized in a certain way\" can end in a volitional explanation. Concerning the latter question, God organized the pre-existing matter that we experience on this earth to fulfill His eternal purposes. On this point, Mormon theology sides more with theism than atheism.\nTraditional theists believe that all explanations end with a volitional being such as God. Atheists believe that all explanations end in non-volitional causes. Mormon theology is a hybrid belief system that asserts that some explanations end in God and some do not. Because of these beliefs, members of the Mormon church are in a good position to resolve many contentions between atheism and traditional theism.\nApple Watch Dimensions Diagrammed\nThe new Apple Watch was announced last Tuesday and so far Apple has not released any materials identifying its dimensions, so I spent the afternoon today analyzing Apple videos and Apple's PR photos to try to derive it's dimensions.\nThe only front facing photo of the watch on Apple's site is the watch next to an iPhone 6. It was clear that it was a 6 and not the six plus because of the app icon to phone ratio. Knowing the dimensions of the iPhone. I was able to estimate the size and dimensions of the new watch as shown below:\nIf you exclude the crown, the dimensions end up being about 36 x 42 mm (1.4 x 1.6 inches). The inner screen appears to be about 40 mm (1.5 inches).\nFrom the side, the dimensions are 9 x 42 mm (.37 x 1.6 inches) without the sensor ring at the bottom. Counting the sensor ring, the total height is about 11.5 mm (.45 inches). That means that the Apple Watch is approximately 67% wider than the new iPhone 6. I suspect that the rounded corners should make the watch seem much thinner than it actually is.\nIn order to better understand the size of the watch, I have compared it to a credit card, an iPhone 6, and an iPhone 3g.\nTomorrow, I start teaching an intro to graphic design class at my Alma Mater \u2014 Brigham Young University. I was thinking about the class outcomes and the lasting influence I want the class to have on the students. The ultimate outcome of the class is to help the students become great designers. A great designer is not only good at their craft, but he or she is also a good person. All of the stated class outcomes ought to create a path to become a great designer.\nBut what makes a great designer?\nI am sure there are many ways to answer this question, but I just thought about a few fundamental attributes that all designers must develop to become great.\nA designer is only as good as his or her resources. Good designers constantly collect physical and mental resources. Physical resources include the tools of the trade as well as collections of inspiring things. Access to quality paper and drawing instruments, and high performing computers and software, and printers are the basic tools of the trade. Great tools don't make good designers, but great designers need great tools. A great designer will constantly seek after the most inspiring and uplifting designs in order to learn from them and to be inspired by them. Sites like Pinterest can be a great resource for filling the mental and spiritual well.\nMental resources include pure talent, inspiring ideas, or a natural intuitive eye for beauty. Some people are born with more innate talent than others, but as long as one has some innate talent, he or she can nurture that talent through hard work.\nOne will not be great without a lot of hard work and a willingness to stay up late and work on weekends. The designer Bradley Munkowitz, whose work I admire, finished every work week by working Friday night until sunrise on Saturday morning for a year.\nThe great inventor Thomas Edison is reported to have said that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. This is a great quote that can help procrastinators gain perspective. But, for those who have mastered the habit of being proactive, they may gain more inspiration from Edison's rival, Nikola Tesla, who said,\nIf Edison had a needle to find in a haystack, he would proceed at once with the diligence of the bee to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search. I was a sorry witness of such doings, knowing that a little theory and calculation would have saved him ninety per cent of his labor.\nSo even though hard work is a necessary habit of a great designer, one will progress faster if they combine good practice with good theory. Both are necessary. One's resources are worthless unless one works hard to put them together in new and inspiring ways.\nI don't think a designer will ever learn to work hard unless he or she is passionately motivated to constantly improve themselves and their communities. A satisfied person is an unmotivated person. Only unsatisfied needs and desires can truly motivate a person to do whatever is necessary to progress.\nIn the book Built to Last, Jim Collins analyzed visionary companies and found that they did not focus primarily on beating their competition. According to Collins,\nVisionary companies focus primarily on beating themselves. Success and beating competitors comes to the visionary companies not so much as the end goal, but as a residual result of relentlessly asking the question \"How can we improve ourselves to do better tomorrow than we did today?\" And they have asked this question day in and day out - as a disciplined way of life - in some cases for over 150 years. No matter how much they achieve - no matter how far in front of their competitors they pull - they never think they've done \"good enough\".\nJust like the visionary companies in Jim Collins study, designers must always have a bit of dissatisfaction with the results of their work. If a designer wants life satisfaction from their craft, then they should not focus too much on the results of their work, but they should focus on the process of design. Paradoxically, the calm of constant improvement comes with a bit of dissatisfaction that fuels personal progress.\nIntroduction to some philosophical principles\nThe philosophical study of reality is called metaphysics. The philosophical study of knowledge is called epistemology. One cannot have an epistemology\u2014or systematic view of knowledge\u2014without a metaphysics\u2014or systematic view of what reality is like. Epistemology and metaphysics therefore cannot be separated. Together they form the foundation for every other belief we may hold. Metaphysics and epistemology form a foundation for ethics\u2014(how people should act). Ethics in turn forms a foundation for politics (how people should act with the context of society) and aesthetics (the study of art and what constitutes good or bad art). A complete philosophical system will integrate all of these branches of philosophy.\nAristotle said, \"The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold.\u201d Since metaphysics and epistemology are the foundation of any philosophical system, if one makes a metaphysical or epistemological mistake, they will also make mistakes in the areas of ethics, politics, and aesthetics. In other words, mistaken premises lead to mistaken conclusions.\nTo validate a conclusion we must identify and validate the premises. How do we validate a premise? By identifying and validating the premises that support that premise. Here we can see a potential problem. Either,\neach premise will have its own premise going down an infinite chain of premises, or\neventually we will find a stopping point\u2014a foundation. That stopping point would be an irreducible premise that can stand alone.\nIf option (1) is true, then knowledge would not be possible because there would be no grounding on which to base our beliefs. If option (2) is true then knowledge is possible.\nKnowledge is possible because irreducible premises do exist. I am going to call these premises \"Axioms\". An axiom is a foundational premise that is self evident. A belief is self evident when one must assume that belief when they are in the process of trying to reject that same idea. For example, if I try to argue against X, and while I am arguing against X, I am forced to assume X, then I will know that X is an axiom.\nKnowledge and the ability to think rationally are dependent on the following axioms:\nReality exists. This is a self-evident truth because if a person tries to deny it through argumentation, he/she must first appeal to reality in order to defend their position that there is no reality to appeal to. It is clearly a self-contradictory statement. Reality is the widest of all concepts. It includes all that is known and unknown.\nConsciousness exists. It is the awareness of reality. It could have been the case that a universe could have existed without consciousness, but we know that it exists because anyone that tries to deny consciousness through argumentation must appeal to reality to defend their position. And the very process of \"appealing to reality\" assumes that one is aware of reality. Axiom 1 and 2 combined show us that reality exists independently of our representations of it.\nAxioms cannot be proven. The concept of proof is not irreducible. It relies on axioms. For example, the concept of \"proof\" assumes that there is an existence or reality that exists independently of consciousness. The concept of proof is meaningless without the concept of reality/existence by which beliefs can be compared. If we compare a given belief to reality and the belief does not match reality, then that belief is false. A belief can be proven when it is shown to match reality. This is why the existence of reality itself cannot be proven, because the concept of proof requires a belief in reality. In other words trying to prove that reality exists would result in a circular argument. Even though Axioms cannot be proven, they can be validated. Validation is a larger concept than proof. Axioms are validated because they are self-evident.\nIf one rejects these axioms, one necessarily undermines their own ability to think correctly. That is why the axioms are so important. If you come across any idea that tries to argue against these axioms, then you know it is false, because that idea is necessarily self-refuting. The axioms are sentries that guard our mind against confusion and ignorance.\nBooks on the Political Divide\nMany people debate the question about whether economics is more like science or philosophy. In my own opinion, science and philosophy deal with different types of questions. Science deals with questions in which there is a systematic method of answering those questions. Philosophy on the other hand deals with questions in which there is not a systemic method for answering those questions. On this view, much of economics is a science because it provides a systematic way of answering many questions about the world. But, there are also parts of economics that are perhaps closer to being philosophy.\nRecently, a Harvard economics professor, Raj Chetty wrote the article, \"Yes economics is a science\" in the New York Times. Chetty argues that economics is a science even though many economists disagree with each other. Chetty writes,\nIt is true that the answers to many \u201cbig picture\u201d macroeconomic questions \u2014 like the causes of recessions or the determinants of growth \u2014 remain elusive. But in this respect, the challenges faced by economists are no different from those encountered in medicine and public health. Health researchers have worked for more than a century to understand the \u201cbig picture\u201d questions of how diet and lifestyle affect health and aging, yet they still do not have a full scientific understanding of these connections. Some studies tell us to consume more coffee, wine and chocolate; others recommend the opposite. But few people would argue that medicine should not be approached as a science or that doctors should not make decisions based on the best available evidence.\nChetty gave several examples of how economics provides a scientific picture of reality. But he also jumped to policy recommendations as if the economic studies naturally lead to those policy recommendations. When Chetty was explaining the scientific observations from economics, I was in agreement with him, but when Chetty jumped to making policy suggestions, I became more skeptical. The economics was science, but the policy suggestions based on the economics was more like philosophy.\nAs I was thinking about this article and randomly surfing the internet, I found this excellent criticism of Chetty's NY Times article by the \"Anonymous Commentator\".\nThe Anonymous Commentator basically agreed that economics is a science and agreed with the scientific conclusions of the economic studies referenced in Chetty's article. But he showed how one can easily arrive at opposite policy recommendations from Chetty. According to the Anonymous Commentator,\nEconomics certainly can be seen as a science when it comes to making observations about the world, but when it comes to recommending certain policies, economics is only as scientific as the biases of the economists allow it to be.\nOne who makes policy recommendations based on economic conclusions are often\u2014 though not always\u2014engaging in philosophy. Philosophy is not inferior to science. It just focuses on different questions\u2014questions like \"What is the good society?\" or \"How should we conduct ourselves in society?\" for example. We need to make more room for honest debate about those questions even though there may be less room for debating the facts of economics.\nTrue Individualism vs. False Individualism\nEvery fourth friday, I meet with a philosophy group. In our August philosophy discussion, we discussed the essay Individualism: True and False by the social theorist and economist Friedrich Hayek. According to Hayek, there are two opposing ideas about how to understand individuals and the society in which they live. Hayek calls these ideas true individualism and false individualism. These ideas permeate all social and political thought. They apply to beliefs about reason and knowledge, economics, justice, equality, power, tradition, marriage and family, and government. In this post, I will briefly introduce the concepts of true and false individualism and discuss how they relate to ideas about reason and knowledge.\nTrue Individualism and False individualism\nTrue individualism is a social theory that says that individuals cannot be properly understood without understanding the social processes that surround him. As people make individual decisions they contribute to a social order that is not the result of human design. According to Hayek, \u201cif left free, men will often achieve more than individual human reason could design or foresee.\u201d (individualism: True and False pg 11) Hayek associates true individualism with Edmund Burke, Adam Smith, Alexis de Tocqueville, Lord Acton, and John Locke.\nFalse individualism on the other hand asserts that individuals are best understood as existing independently of social processes. And, it seeks to understand society as existing independently of the individuals that compose that society. False individualism assumes that reason \"is always fully and equally available to all humans and that everything which man achieves is the direct result of, and therefore subject to, the control of individual reason.\u201d False individualism seeks to free individuals from social constraints in order to promote liberated self-expression. This view has been expressed by John Stuart Mill, Jeremy Bentham, Ren\u00e9 Descartes, Jean Jacques Rousseau, and, William Godwin.\nReason and Knowledge\nAccording to true individualism, any individual's own knowledge alone is grossly inadequate for social decision making. Knowledge comes primarily from experience which is \u201ctransmitted socially in largely inarticulate forms from prices which indicate costs, scarcities, and preferences, to traditions which evolve from the day to day experiences of millions in each generation, winnowing out in Darwinian competition what works from what does not work.\u201d (Conflict of Visions pg 36)\nIn another work, Hayek wrote that, \u201cman has certainly more often learnt to do the right thing without comprehending why it was the right thing, and he still is better served by custom than understanding.\u201d There is thus, \u201cmore \u2018intelligence\u2019 incorporated in rules of conduct than in man\u2019s thoughts about his surroundings.\u201d (Law, Legislation, and Liberty pg 157)\nIn his essay on individualism Hayek argues that since man\u2019s reason is inadequate to intelligently design society, individuals are justified in following, and ought to follow, social conventions that have evolved over time.\n...the individual, in participating in the social processes, must be ready and willing to adjust himself to changes and to submit to conventions which are not the result of intelligent design, whose justification in the particular instance may not be recognizable, and which to him will often appear unintelligible and irrational.\nThus according to true individualism, knowledge comes from experience, is systemic and dispersed in the many, and is expressed through social norms and customs.\nFalse individualism rejects these ideas in favor of what Hayek calls \u201cRationalism\u201d which accepts only what can \u201cjustify\u201d itself to \u201creason\u201d. One proponent of rationalism\u2014the philosopher William Godwin\u2014expressed this view when he said that \u201cReason is the proper instrument, and the sufficient instrument for regulating the actions of mankind.\u201d Traditions and social norms are looked upon with skepticism and disdain unless they are validated via specifically articulated rationality. This is because knowledge is viewed as, \u201cconscious, explicit knowledge of individuals, the knowledge which enables us to state that this or that is so-and-so.\u201d\nImplicit in Hayek\u2019s view of rationalism is that it can lead to both socialism and forms of libertarianism such as anarchism. Rationalism can lead to socialism because according to Godwin, \u201cpersons with narrow views and observation,\u201d readily accept whatever happens to prevail in their society. (Enquiry Concerning Political Justice, Vol II, pg 206) It is only the \u201ccultivated minds\u201d who can deliberately see past the social norms and traditions of the masses and deliberately design a society that will benefit all. Rationalism thus sees knowledge and reason as concentrated in the few who see themselves as surrogate decision-makers on behalf of the masses. This is why Hayek believes that rationalism often leads \u201cdirectly to socialism\u201d which assumes that society can only improve if it is deliberately designed by the wisest most cultivated minds. Taken to another extreme, rationalism can also lead to forms of libertarianism such as anarchism which seeks to reduce all social interactions to deliberate contract making between individuals as if they could deliberately design their lives from scratch apart from society or government.\nAccording to Thomas Sowell who wrote extensively about Hayek, \u201cRationalism at the individual level is a plea for more personal autonomy from cultural norms, at the social level it is often a claim\u2014or arrogation\u2014of power to stifle the autonomy of others,\u201d on the basis of assumed superior wisdom and articulated rationality. (Knowledge and Decisions pg 103)\nAnother way to understand true and false individualism with respect to knowledge and reason is to contrast how each side answers the questions, \u201cwhat is the locus of discretion?\u201d and, \u201cwhat is the mode of discretion?\u201d\nAccording to true individualism, individuals should be left free to make their own decisions within a framework of systemic rationality. By systemic rationality, I am referring to the experience of the many as expressed in social norms, customs, traditions, and even price signals within an economy. According to false individualism, individuals should be free from the constraints of social norms and traditions. They can only be free if they are liberated by experts who exempt themselves from social norms and make social decisions on behalf of \u201csociety\u201d. False individualism thus assumes that man can comprehend society enough to design it.\nFriedrich Hayek, Individualism and Economic Order\nThomas Sowell, Conflict of Visions\nFriedrich Hayek, Law, Legislation, and Liberty\nWilliam Godwin, Enquiry Concerning Political Justice, Vol II\nThomas Sowell, Knowledge and Decisions\nPolitical debate is often unpleasant because most people are blind to the reasons and assumptions of the other side. I believe that understanding the deep assumptions behind political beliefs will minimize political conflict and increase respect for each other. It might even help us make political progress. Here are 4 book recommendations that enlighten the deep assumptions that fuel the political divide.\nThis is by far my favorite book about understanding the deep assumptions behind political beliefs and it is one of my favorite books in general. The author Thomas Sowell, starts by pointing out the consistency by which people hold political beliefs. According to Sowell:\nA closer look at the arguments on both sides often shows that they are reasoning from fundamentally different premises. These different premises \u2014often implicit\u2014are what provide the consistency behind the repeated opposition of individuals and groups on numerous unrelated issues. They have different visions of how the world works.\nSowell argues that the political divide is driven by two separate visions about human nature\u2014The Constrained Vision and the Unconstrained Vision. The constrained vision holds that human nature is inherently limited in knowledge, wisdom and virtue and social arrangements must acknowledge those limits. Those with the constrained vision trust the collective experience more than articulated rationality, they see value in social institutions and traditions that have evolved over time to mitigate the negative aspects of human nature, and they view social causality mostly in terms of non-volitional forces.\nThe unconstrained vision holds that psychological limitations are artifacts that come fromour social arrangements, and we should not allow them to restrict our gaze from what is possible in a better world. The philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau summed up the unconstrained vision by writing, \u201cMan is born free, but everywhere he is in chains.\u201d Essentially man is inherently good but man is corrupted by social institutions and traditions. Those with unconstrained trust articulated rationality more than collective wisdom, and view social causality in terms of volitional forces.\nThese visions cover a wide range of political beliefs on both sides including different views about knowledge and reason, tradition and markets, age and experience, sincerity and fidelity, justice and equality, and power and freedom. In my experience, this way of looking at political beliefs has been so accurate that when I have identified the vision of a particular individual, I can quite confidently predict what they believe about such disparate issues as gun control, markets, abortion, religion, gender issues, education, war, healthcare, and more.\nThe book treats both sides quite fairly and evenly. It covers intellectual history and gives many examples of specific thinkers that have contributed to each vision. Every reader will gain a greater understanding of the reasons behind their own political beliefs as well as the beliefs of those with whom they disagree.\nHere is an introduction to this book by the author (who subscribes to the constrained vision):\nThis book by the cognitive scientist Steven Pinker details the history of the blank slate which the belief that people are born without any innate dispositions, abilities, or preferences. This belief implies that all behavior is learned from one's environment and that everyone has equal opportunities to succeed if they are raised in the right environment. The blank slate premise leads to conclusions about politics, violence, gender, parenting, the arts, and much more.\nPinker shows how the study of evolutionary psychology thoroughly debunks the blank slate and the linked dogmas of the \"noble savage\" and \"the ghost in the machine\". The noble savage is the view that man is born good and is corrupted by society. The ghost in the machine is the view that everyone has a soul that can make choices free from biology. He not only shows how these theories are false, he also shows how the blank slate has been used to justify disastrous political experiments such as totalitarian social engineering.\nAt one point in the book, Pinker refers to The Conflict of Visions. He wrote, \"The most sweeping attempt to survey the underlying dimension is Thomas Sowell's A Conflict of Visions. Not every ideological struggle fits his scheme, but as we say in social science, he has identified a factor that can account for a large proportion of the variance.\" Pinker refers to the constrained vision as the Tragic Vision of human nature and he calls the unconstrained vision a Utopian Vision of human nature. About the two visions, Pinker suggests, \"The new sciences of human nature vindicate some version of the Tragic Vision and undermine the Utopian outlook\".\nThis book is quite profound and a pleasure to read. Pinker weaves in many popular references with dense scientific critiques of the blank slate theory. It was a pulitzer prize finalist and essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the political divide.\nHere is Pinker's TED talk about the book:\nThe Three Languages of Politics\nThis brand new book is very short and very cheap\u2014only $1.99 on the Kindle store. Arnold Kling shows how different ideologies speak different languages. Progressives, Conservatives, and Libertarians each have an axis of concern:\n\u2022 The Progressive narrative follow an \"oppressed vs. oppressor\" axis. \u2022 The Conservative narrative follow a \"civilization vs. barbarism\" axis. \u2022 The Libertarian narrative follow a \"freedom vs. coercion\" axis.\nThis three-axes model helps us see how and why people demonize those who don't agree with them. For progressives, conservatives and libertarians want to oppress the poor. For conservatives, progressives and libertarians unwittingly encourage barbarism and undermine civilization. For libertarians, progressives and conservatives support policies that undermine freedom.\nWe can be more charitable to others by speaking their language and showing why a particular axis narrative does or does not apply to a given political situation. Kling makes a distinction between motivated thinking which is based on unexamined intuition and emotion and constructive thinking which is based on logic. Understanding the three-axes model and being more charitable to others will stimulate our constructive thinking. We should try to understand why we think our political opponents are wrong instead of automatically assuming those on the other side are irrational. Our own rationality is called into question when we automatically assume that other people are irrational.\nHere is a short podcast where Arnold Kling discusses these views.\nI just finished this book the other day. Jonathan Haidt uses what he calls \"Moral Psychology\" to show that human beings evolved certain moral intuitions that influence their political and religious beliefs.\nOne of Haidt's metaphors that I like is the \"Elephant and Rider\" metaphor. The rider represents the conscious controlled processes and the elephant represents all of the automatic processes. These two systems evolved for to perform different functions. Our elephant is our primary decision maker and our rider is our press agent. Most of the time, the rider justifies why we did what the elephant did. Only rarely does the rider actually influence the elephant.\nHaidt argues that reason is vastly overrated and that intuitions are much better at guiding our political beliefs. I personally think that he pushes this point too far because of course, he has to use reason in his arguments that try to undermine reason. Nevertheless, he makes good points about understanding the relationship between our intuitions and reasons.\nHaidt also develops \"Moral Foundations Theory\" where he talks about 6 moral foundations that inform our intuitions. These foundations include the following:\nCare /Harm\nSanctity/Degredation\nHaidt uses details surveys that measure how sensitive each person is to one of the moral foundations. He found that liberals and those that are left-wing value the care and fairness foundations and tend to minimize or ignore the other 4 foundations. Conservatives on the other hand value all of the evolved foundations equally. Although Haidt is a liberal, he suggests that conservatives have a more balanced intuitional foundation and believes that liberals would be better off if they try to understand and embrace the other moral foundations. Understanding these moral foundations can help us to understand the intuitions of those with whom we disagree.\nTry out his moral foundations quiz and see the fascinating results\nThese 4 authors have greatly influenced my thinking about how to understand political beliefs. These 4 books would make a great foundation for a course in understanding politics. The authors span the political spectrum. Thomas Sowell tends to be more conservative. Steven Pinker is a moderate. Arnold Kling is a libertarian. And, Jonathan Haidt is a liberal.\nIn Philosophy Tags Books, Politcal theory, Political divide\nPhilosophical Analysis of the LDS Sacrament\nIn this post I want to show how Searle's philosophy of social ontology helps clarify the ritual of the LDS Sacrament. This post will be easier to understand if you read my post on Social Ontology:\nMany religions believe in and perform a sacrament ritual which is often referred to as Communion. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints participates in a Sacrament meeting every week during their worship services. During the sacrament, bread and water are blessed and passed out to the congregation who eat and drink the bread and water.\nTypically two young men who hold the priesthood (at the level of priests) bless the bread and water in front of the congregation. Before they bless the bread and water they break the bread into small pieces and pour water into small plastic or paper cups. At the appropriate time, one of them blesses the bread by saying the following prayer:\nO God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it, that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he has given them; that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen. (D&C 20:77)\nAfter they bless the bread, several other young men who hold the priesthood (at the level of deacons) pass the bread to each member of the congregation. When everyone in the congregation has eaten a piece of bread, one of the two young men then bless the water by saying the following prayer:\nO God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this [water] to the souls of all those who drink of it, that they may do it in remembrance of the blood of thy Son, which was shed for them; that they may witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they do always remember him, that they may have his Spirit to be with them. Amen. (D&C 20:79)\nThen the water is then passed to the congregation and the sacrament ends.\nWhat does it mean to \"bless\"?\nTo bless means to make something holy. In my last post, I wrote that \"holiness\" is not a physical characteristic of an object. Rather, \"holiness\" is a status that is assigned to an object. Therefore, when we bless the bread and water we are assigning a status to them. We are more specifically asking God to recognize a specific status, but we are not asking God to change the molecular structure or physical substance of the bread and water. Catholics on the other hand believe that the physical substance does change. (see transubstantiation)\nWhat is the purpose of the status that is assigned to the bread and water?\nThe purpose of assigning a status to anything is to give that thing a function. The intended function of the bread and water is to cause the partaker to remember the Son and His atonement. The bread that we eat for breakfast does not have that function. Even if we did think of Christ every time we ate our morning toast, it would still not count as performing the function of the sacrament, because the assignment of that sacrament function must be recognized by both the partaker and by God. The bread and water are often called \"emblems\" because they are supposed to act as representations of Christ and His atoning sacrifice.\nWhy must the sacrament be recognized by both the partaker and by God?\nThe Sacrament ritual is a covenant that we make with God. More precisely, the sacrament is a renewal of covenants that were already made when the partaker of the sacrament was baptized. Not only do we make a promise to God, but God makes a promise with us. Therefore, the sacrament must be recognized by both parties.\nWhat counts as covenanting with God? The act of partaking of emblems, or the act of remembering?\nIn order to answer this question I need to make a distinction between two types of complex actions. The first type of complex action involves doing something \"by way of\" doing something else. The second type of complex action involves doing something \"by means of\" doing something else. These types of complex actions are summarized by John Searle:\nSo, for example, if the chairman says, \u201cAll those in favor of the motion raise your right hand,\u201d and I raise my right hand, I am not only raising my right hand but also voting for the motion. These are not two separate actions\u2014raising my right hand and voting; rather, they are one action with two levels of description of the two different features of the action. Raising my right hand in that circumstance constitutes voting. I vote by way of raising my hand.\nAnother type of a complex action is where one intentionally does something that causes something else to occur. For example, I fire a gun by means of pulling the trigger. Here again there are not two actions\u2014pulling the trigger and firing the gun\u2014but only one action with two different levels of description. At the bottom level I intentionally pull the trigger. My pulling the trigger causes the gun to fire. My pulling the trigger does not cause me to fire the gun; in that context it just is firing the gun. But firing the gun is a complex act, where I intentionally achieve the effect that the gun fires by the causal \u201cby means of\u201d relation, whereby my bottom-level intentional movement causes the higher level effect, and the combination is the total action. (Making the Social World: The Structure of Human Civilization p36)\nThe act of partaking of the sacrament emblems has a \"by means of\" relationship with the act of remembering of Christ and His atonement. The partaking is intended to be the cause, and the remembering is the effect. Eating the bread and drinking water is also an outward sign of an inward activity.\nThe act of remembering has a \"by way of\" relationship with the act of covenanting. The remembering does not cause us to covenant with God. The remembering constitutes covenanting with God. Therefore, the intentional act of remembering is a speech act that counts as promising just as raising one's right arm counts as voting for a motion.\nWhat do we promise to God?\nThe partaker of the sacrament promises to (1) always remember Christ, and (2) be willing to take upon the name of Christ, and (3) keep His commandments.\nWhat does it mean to be willing to take upon us the name of Christ?\nAccording to the apostle Dallin H. Oaks, the phrase \"willing to take upon them the name of thy Son\" has multiple meanings. In this post I will only focus on one of those meanings. To be willing to take upon the name of Christ is to be willing to accept a certain status that comes with the name. With that status comes a specific function, and with that function comes certain deontic powers such as rights and authorizations, and obligations and requirements. This pattern was illustrated to me a few days ago when my wife took the Oath of Allegiance and became a citizen of the United States of America. She essentially took upon her the name of America and became an American. She swore that she would be willing to freely take upon her certain obligations such as serving and fighting for America. Because she made this oath, she is entitled to all the rights and entitlements that come with being an American citizen.\nThe difference between the sacrament and the oath of Allegiance is that in the sacrament, we do not take upon ourselves the name of Christ; we only express that we are willing to do so. This implies that at some future date we will be eligible to actually take upon ourselves the name of Christ. According to Dallin H. Oaks,\nScriptural references to the name of Jesus Christ often signify the authority of Jesus Christ. In that sense, our willingness to take upon us his name signifies our willingness to take upon us the authority of Jesus Christ in the sacred ordinances of the temple, and to receive the highest blessings available through his authority when he chooses to confer them upon us. (see D&C 109:26)\nThis understanding thus connects the ordinance of the sacrament with the ordinances in the temple. This suggests that only those who have been to the temple can understand the deeper meaning behind sacrament because they can understand the rights and authorizations as well as obligations taken when they take upon His name in the House of the Lord.\nWhat does God promise to us in the sacrament?\nGod promises to give us \"His Spirit\".\nWhat is His Spirit?\nIt is commonly understood that His Spirit refers to the Gift of the Holy Ghost.\nWhy do we make promises in this ritualistic way?\nA promise is a commissive speech act. As such the speaker of the promise commits herself to perform some course of action. In the case of the sacrament, the eating of the bread is a speech act. It is an act of language without the use of phonetic utterances.\nThe sacrament emblems could be anything because human beings can assign status functions to anything. Instead of blessing and eating bread we could bless gummy bears. Or we could have performed some bodily movement such as a dance. Or we could have simply filled out a check box on a form. But I believe that the activity of eating has symbolic significance that can more deeply and vividly help us understand the meaning behind the sacrament.\nWhy do we need to make promises at all?\nAll institutional facts are extensions of language or \"speech acts\" that are designed to effect behavior. Institutional facts affect behavior by locking into human rationality by providing \"desire-independent reasons for action.\" The natural desires of mankind are contrary to the will of God. These desires tend to be immoral and promote chaos. Institutional facts can promote order and morality by giving us reasons to act that are different from our natural desires. For example, when we make a promise to do something, we have engaged in a commissive speech act that gives us a reason to do that which we promised even when we do not want to follow through with our promise.\nIn the LDS sacrament, members covenant to continue to always remember Christ and to obey God's commandments. This gives us a reason to act independently of our natural desires. Thus, making promises gives us added motivation to follow the commandments by giving us desire-independent reasons for acting.\nIn Philosophy Tags Religion\nWhat does holiness mean?\nThe purpose of this post is to answer the question:\nWhat is the meaning of holiness?\nRecently, I have been studying John Searle's philosophy of institutional facts. I find that his philosophy answers many interesting questions in a clear and precise way and relates to many different fields of study including religion and theology.\nSearle's philosophy shows how new facts can be created by collectively recognizing the assignment of functions to objects that cannot perform those functions by themselves alone. A useful mnemonic device for logically analyzing these social facts is the formula: X counts as Y in context C as in the example \"This piece of paper (X) counts as money (Y) in the United States (C). I introduce these concepts in more detail here. I find this philosophy very useful in understanding the concept of \"Holiness\".\nThe word holy is synonymous with the word sacred. Holy is an english word that has Germanic roots. Sacred is an english word that has Latin roots. In the scriptures there are several different things that are described as \"holy\" such as the following:\nSpoken Words and Texts such as scriptures\nRituals and Ordinances such as the activities performed in the temple.\nObjects such as the Menorah or the Arc of the Covenant\nArt and Architecture such as temples\nTime such as the sabbath day\nPeople such as priests\nInstitutions or communities such as Zion or the Church\nGenerally speaking, Holy means that which belongs to God or associated with God. Using the language of Searle's philosophy of institutional facts, something is holy if God recognizes it to have a certain status and by virtue of that status, the object can perform a specific function. Here are a few applications of this concept:\nA person counts as a prophet when they are recognized by God as being a prophet. The person alone is not sufficient to constitute being a prophet. You need the person plus God's recognition. Someone claiming to be a prophet that is not recognized by God is a false prophet. The status of \"prophet\" gives certain authorizations and obligations to the rightful bearer of that title. Such authorizations include the right to act in God's name and receive revelation on behalf of other people. Since they are recognized by God, prophets are holy. The Holy Prophets are still prophets even if no one but God recognizes their status.\nEmblems of the Sacrament\nThe Sacrament is blessed (is made holy) if God recognizes it as being blessed. The bread and water count as a symbols of Christ and the act of eating those symbols and remembering Christ count as performing a covenant with God. The bread and water alone are not sufficient to be symbols of Christ by themselves. You need the bread and water plus God's recognition and the recognition of those engaging in the sacrament ritual. The covenants renewed during the sacrament are holy because they are recognized by God.\nThe priesthood is the authority to act in God's name and use His power. A person counts as having the status of priesthood holder when they are authorized to perform specific functions such as blessing the Sacrament or healing the sick. A person only has the priesthood when they are recognized by God as having that priesthood. God recognizes a person's priesthood when they are righteous and have been given the priesthood by someone else who has the priesthood who has been authorized by a church official such as the Bishop.\nThe temple is holy because it is God's house. Temples are centers for creating, preserving, and transmitting other Holy symbols. By itself, the physical building that constitutes a temple is not Holy. You need the building plus God's recognition that it is a temple for it to be holy.\nI could describe many more religious concepts using these terms. There is a general formula that comes out of these examples:\nX counts as something holy if it has a status that is recognized by God in order to perform a specific function that it cannot perform without God's recognition of that status. That status always comes with deontic powers such as rights, authorizations, and permissions, or obligations, duties, and requirements.\nNothing is holy in this context unless God recognizes it as being holy and sacred. And, nothing is holy unless it is assigned a certain status in order to perform a specific function. These concepts should be thought about with an attitude of reverence and we should treat these concepts as God treats them. That which is unholy is that which has a status such that we are obligated to avoid it. God does not dwell in unholy temples. We should likewise not enter unholy places or situations.\nHoly objects are different from other social objects (like money) in that an object can be holy even if God is the only person that recognizes them as being holy. Whereas all other social objects exist only if there is a large amount of people that recognize them as existing.\nSources: http://www.mormoninterpreter.com/ancient-temples-and-sacred-symbolism-video/ The Construction of Social Reality by John Searle\nMany talk of rights without describing them clearly. In this post I will.\ntry to define the concept of rights clearly and describe what type of thing rights are.\nargue that universal human rights imply universal human obligations.\nargue that human rights exist independently from rights that are granted by an institution like the state.\nHuman Rights are rights that a person has in virtue of being human. As such they exist independently from any system of laws enacted by any institution such as a state or government. Some argue that universal human rights do not exist independently of a government. Jeremy Bentham called the idea of human rights, \"rhetorical nonsense\". Bentham thought that because we do not discover human rights in the same way that people have noses, then there must not be any rights \"out there\" to be found. While it is true that we do not discover human rights in the same way that we discover that water is H2O, it does not follow that human rights do not exist.\nThe existence of human rights depends on a collective recognition or acceptance of their existence. The existence of human rights is an observer-relative fact; not an observer-independent facts. The difference between these two types of facts is that observer-relative facts depend on the beliefs and attitudes of human beings while observer-independent facts exist regardless of what human beings think or believe.\nLet me try to explain the distinction between these two types of facts more clearly. An example of an observer-relative fact is money. When one has a $5 bill, he/she is entitled to buy $5 worth of goods. On a $5 note, we read the words, \"This note is legal tender for all debts public and private.\" If one only believed that observer-independent facts existed, they would naturally want to ask, \"How do they know that it is legal tender?...Did they perform some chemical test to see if the $5 bill really was money?\" Of course these questions miss the point. We do not discover that a certain piece of paper is money. We declare it to be money. The piece of paper and the ink stains that constitute the $5 bill are NOT sufficient to make it money. We need the actual piece of paper PLUS something else to make it money. That something else is the collective recognition that those pieces of paper count as money.\nHuman rights are the same way. When one is a human being, he or she has the right to perform certain actions, but the mere existence of a certain biological organism that we call a human being is not sufficient to ensure that person has rights. You need a certain biological organism (a human being) PLUS collective recognition that they have those rights.\nI think that the concept of human rights will be clearer when one understands how institutional facts are created in general. I describe how they are created in more detail in my post about Social Ontology. Here I will summarize some of those ideas:\nSummary of Social Ontology\nThere are at least three things that are needed to create institutional facts. You need status functions, collective recognition, and constitutive rules.\nHumans are different from all other forms of animal life because humans can impose functions on objects where the objects cannot perform the function solely in virtue of their physical structure. To continue using the example of money, we can assign the function of money to little green pieces of paper. These pieces of paper have the status of money in virtue of the function that we collectively assign to them. When we create a function by collective recognition of an assigned status, we are creating a \"Status Function\". Status functions are everywhere. Examples of status functions include money, marriages, touchdowns, sacraments, driver's licenses, presidents, private property, holidays, etc.\nStatus functions exist as part of a system of \"constitutive rules\" that are created by language. Constitutive rules create the behavior that they regulate. For example, the rules of chess create the possibility of playing the game of chess. Similarly, status functions are constitutive rules that create observer-relative facts. Constitutive rules of status functions have the logical form \"X counts as Y\" in context \"C\". Here are a few examples:\nA certain area of the field (X) counts as an end zone (Y) in the game of football (C)\nSuch and such a sound wave (X) counts as a sentence (Y) in the english language (C)\nThis piece of paper (X) counts as money (Y) in the United States (C)\nThe \"X counts as Y in context C\" formula is not intended to show how people explicitly think about institutional facts. In most cases institutional facts are not explicitly stated. The formula is just a useful way to think about how people are prepared to regard things or treat them as having a certain status.\nStatus functions are always associated with social power. This power is simply the ability to get people to \bbehave in a certain way. There are positive social powers such as rights, permissions, authorizations, certifications, and entitlements. There are also negative powers such as obligations, duties, and requirements. These powers provide us with reasons for acting that are independent of our inclinations and desires. For example, if I recognize something as your property, then I am obligated not to take it or use it without your permission. Likewise, if I have the status the president of the United States, then I am authorized to command the military.\nStatus functions are always associated with social powers that lock into human rationality by creating \"desire-independent reasons for action\". In the game of American football, the end zone creates a conditional power, such that when a player makes it to the end zone with the ball, his team is entitled to 6 points while the opposite team is required to recognize that they have 6 points even though the opposite team would rather not recognize those points.\nWith this brief foundation in place, I can more precisely describe universal human rights. A universal human right is described by an observer-relative constitutive rule such that:\nA certain biological organism (X) counts as a human being (Y) in the context of the whole universe (C).\nThe power associated with this constitutive rule is that any organism that satisfies the conditions of the Y term has certain powers (rights and entitlements) such as the right to life or the right to free speech.\nUniversal Human Rights imply Universal Human Obligations\nThis framing implies that all universal human rights imply universal human obligations. Rights are always rights against somebody. If I have a right to walk in a park, then everyone else has an obligation not to interfere with that activity. If A has a right against B, then B has an obligation to A. For example, the bill of rights are rights against Congress, they place congress under an obligation not to interfere with the rights articulated in the Bill of Rights such as the right to free speech.\nPut more precisely:\nIf a human being (H) has a right to perform action (A), then other people (P) have an obligation (O) not to interfere with (H) performing action (A)\nHuman rights can be categorized into positive and negative rights. The formulation of rights above is an example of a negative right. The type of rights found in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights are negative rights. The rights laid out in the founding documents of America impose an obligation on everyone not to interfere with certain human activities such as the establishment or exercise of religion, or free speech, etc. In other words negative rights are rights that people have to be left alone.\nPositive rights require more than just non-interference. They require positive action in ensuring that everyone receives those rights. The logical form of a positive right would look something like this:\nIf a human being (H) has a right to (B), then other people (P) have an obligation (O) to ensure that (H) obtains (B)\nA formulation of human rights that can apply to both positive and negative rights can go something like this:\nA Human Being (H) has a human right (R) which generates an obligation (O) for other people (P)\nIn some situations, the distinction between positive and negative rights is blurred. Nevertheless, I think these concepts can help us to avoid confusion in many cases. For example, if I have the right to life and that right is a negative right, then it is implied that other people are obligated not to harm my life, but it does not imply that people are obligated to provide me with food or expensive healthcare so as to prolong my life as long as possible. Similarly, people in remote parts of the world have a right to life, but since it is a negative right, I have no obligation to provide them with food and healthcare. I think that the right to life can only be properly understood as a negative right in this context. This does not mean that we should not help others, but that it does not make sense to have an enforceable obligation to do so.\nUniversal Human Rights are Institution-independent\nBut what happens when other people (P) do not want to fulfill their obligations(O)?\nWhen other people do not want to fulfill their obligations to other human beings, and those human beings are not in a position to guarantee that their own rights are not infringed, then it becomes necessary for some third party to protect human rights by ensuring that other people fulfill their obligations. That third party could be the government which has the obligation to protect human rights by enacting civil laws that are enforceable because the government can use brute force. Therefore our logical formula that describes human rights can be expanded as follows:\nA Human Being (H) has a human right (R) which generates an obligation (O) for other people (P) which right creates a different obligation (O2) for a third party (G) to protect (H) and his/her rights.\nAn application of this formula would be something like this:\nA human being (Gavin Jensen) has a human right (right to life) which generates and obligation (do not murder Gavin) for other people (everyone in the world) which right creates another obligation (protect Gavin's right to life) for a third party (the United States government) to protect (Gavin Jensen's) right to life.\nWhen the government creates laws, they are obligated to ensure that those laws respect human rights. If human rights are really universal then that means that governments that protect those rights cannot have a system of pure democracy. If they want to protect human rights, then they must enforce certain laws that cannot be changed by popular vote.\nFor human rights to be universal, they must exist outside of the scope of any government. They do not come from a constitution or any other legal document. Constitutions and laws are attempts to protect pre-existing human rights. The purpose of civil law is to implement human rights. Thomas Paine wrote in The Rights of Man,\n\"Every civil right has for its foundation some natural right pre-existing in the individual, but to the enjoyment of which his individual power is not in all cases, sufficiently competent. Of this kind are all those which relate to security and protection.\"\nCitizens can sometimes create state recognized rights that do not depend on universal human rights. In these cases the obligations created by those rights should only apply to the citizens of that institution. For instance, if same-sex marriage is not a universal human right and a state wants to grant the right of marriage to same-sex couples, then they can do that but that right would only create an obligation for the citizens of that state. But people outside of that institution would not be obligated to recognize that institution-relative right.\nHuman rights must be justified\nEven though status functions exist because of collective recognition of those status functions, it does not mean that they are arbitrary. Some claims to human rights are valid if they can be justified, while other claims are invalid when they cannot be justified. In this post, I have not tried to justify any specific human right. I have only tried to outline what human rights are and explain the nature of their existence. Justifying specific human rights is a topic for later posts.\nHuman rights exist just as money exists. Both are observer-relative phenomenon meaning that we do not discover human rights (or money) in the same way that we discover that water is made of H2O.\nBecause human beings have a recognized status function, they have social powers that include rights to perform certain actions.\nAnalyzing human rights in this way makes it very clear that human rights imply human obligations.\nThere are two types rights\u2014positive and negative.\nHuman rights exist independently of laws created within any institution and apply universally.\nIn Philosophy Tags Human rights\nGod, Language, and Reality\nIn the beginning of the Old Testament, we read \"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.\" It appears in this verse that God caused light to appear through the use of language. How can language cause the world to change? What would reality have to be like for the language to change reality?\nTo explore these questions, I want to introduce the concept of direction of fit. Direction of fit refers to the relationship between words and reality. In many cases, words can be used to fit the way the world is. These cases have a \" word-to-world direction of fit\". In other cases, the world changes in order to fit the words that we use. These cases have a \"world-to-word direction of fit\". These distinctions will be clearer as I describe the possible uses of language.\n5 types of speech acts\nThere are 5 and only 5 things that can be done with language. There are assertives, expressives, directives, commissives, and declarations. These uses of language are called speech acts. Assertives state the way the world is and thus have the word-to-world direction of fit. Assertives refer to statements, descriptions, classifications, explanations, and clarifications. Eg: \"The earth rotates around the sun\". Expressives do not have a direction of fit but they rely on presuppositions that do have a direction of fit. Eg: \"Thank you for passing the guacamole\" (which presupposes that the hearer did in fact pass the guacamole).\nDirectives, commissives, and declarations all have a world-to-word direction of fit. Directives change the world by causing the hearer to do something. Directives include orders, commands, requests and refer to pleading, begging, praying, insisting, and suggesting. Eg: \"Go to your room.\" Commissives change the world by committing the speaker to do something. Commissives refer to vows, threats, pledges, guarantees, contracts, promises, covenants, and oaths. Eg: \"I promise to uphold the constitution.\" Declaratives actually have a dual direction of fit. They change the world by representing the world as being so changed. Eg: \"This meeting is adjourned,\" or, \"I now pronounce you husband and wife.\" A declaration can fail if no one recognizes the declaration. For instance, if I declare that a meeting is adjourned, and the meeting just keeps going on because no one recognizes my speech act, then I have failed to change reality. Therefore declarations are dependent on collective recognition if they are to actually change the world. For a more slightly more thorough introduction to speech acts, check out this post.\nSo what type of speech act is the utterance, \"Let there be light\"? It doesn't have a word-to-world direction of fit so it cannot be an assertive. It does not seem to be expressing an emotion that assumes another fact so it cannot be an expressive. It doesn't commit the speaker to a specific action so it is not a commissive. The only possibilities left are directives and declarations, or it might not be a speech act at all. I will examine each of these remaining possibilities.\nIs it a declaration?\nIf the speech act, \"let there be light\" is a declaration, then God is changing the world by representing it as being so changed. However, when human beings make a declaration they can only change social reality. For example, the declaration, \"This note is legal tender for all debts public and private\" only applies to the status function of money which is a social fact that requires collective recognition. Human beings cannot change the brute facts of reality through declarations alone. For example, we cannot change reality by saying, \"I hereby declare that I am a billionaire.\" Nor can we change reality by declaring something like, \"Let there be good weather.\" No amount of collective recognition is going to change those brute facts because beliefs alone cannot cause anything to happen without physical action. If the utterance \"let there be light\" is a declaration, then I cannot make sense it for the reasons just stated. It would presuppose a type of metaphysical idealism which I believe is self-contradictory.\nIs it a directive?\nDirectives are supposed to change the world by causing the hearer to perform some action. The utterance \"Let there be light\" could be a command to the light itself or it could be a command to an unspecified hearer who is being commanded to create the light through the use of some sort of light-generating technology. If light could be commanded, then that would imply that light has some sort of conscious awareness such that it could understand the meaning of the words and volitionally respond to the directive. In Helaman 12: 8-22, it seems as though Nephi is suggesting that matter obeys God's word which seems to imply that it is conscious. Orson Pratt is said to have more explicitly supported this hylozoistic view. However, I think there is enough room for interpretation to question this interpretation of the scriptures. If light does not have conscious awareness, then some unspecified hearer such as an angel turned on the light after being commanded by God.\nMaybe it isn't a speech act at all\nThe last possibility is that the phrase, \"Let there be light\" is not a speech act at all but just a soundwave that triggers a preprogrammed event that causes the lights to turn on. For example, when I ask Siri (on my iPhone) to launch an app, I say something like \"launch Angry Birds.\" But the meaning of my words did not cause Siri to open the app. It was merely the soundwave that caused Siri to open the app. Siri could have been programmed to launch the app when it heard the soundwave, \"Do NOT launch Angry Birds\". Or it could have been programmed to launch the app when it heard the sound wave, \"Boom Shakalaka!\" Likewise some light generating technology could have been preprogrammed to respond to God's words. It could have been programmed to respond to a particular vibration of his vocal cords, or some bodily movement, or perhaps the technology could have responded to some form of thought detection.\nIn this post, I have not been as interested in what God caused to be with His words. I am more interested in how God uses words to cause things to be. Understanding how words can change reality can give us insights into the metaphysical nature of reality. Using the example of light, God's words could have been a declaration, a directive, or they could have been a soundwave that triggers a non-volitional technology. In my opinion, it doesn't make sense that the words could be a declaration for the reasons stated above. I am also skeptical of the speech-as-a technology-trigger explanation because I am not aware of any example where God's words are used this way. Intuitively, it does not seem Godlike for God's words to not have any meaning in this way. Therefore, I believe that the utterance, \"Let there be light\" was a directive. Either matter volitionally obeyed God's words or God was commanding another volitional being (or beings) to cause a series of events to take place in order for earth to have light.\nScriptures about the power of God's words: Jacob 4:9 Helaman 12:7-21 1 Ne. 17:46\nPaper apps\nDownload some of my paper productivity & effectiveness tools\nI want this for halloween. https://t.co/Pv1MHYkDsW\nDefinition of \"trust\" I just heard and like: \"Sharing common experiences over an extended period of time in which\u2026 https://t.co/qXX1ea3w5z\nGavitron 2018",

        "title": "What is the best way to learn Chinese? | Greatreporter",
        "raw_content": "I-Ching Ng, 24 December 2007\nAs China rises on the global business stage, more people want to learn the language. The question is, which version?\nThe debate over which method to adopt-traditional or simplified Chinese-has become a matter of national identity and ideology.\nWhen P.S. 163 in the Flushing section of Queens, N.Y., pioneered a fully bilingual Chinese-English immersion program for its 49 kindergarten students this fall, the school\u2019s principal, Lucius Young, faced a dilemma: Which writing system should the school use for its Chinese curriculum?\nWhile the school\u2019s students shuttle between classrooms painted red (for instruction in Chinese) and blue (for instruction in English), the debate over using simplified or traditional Chinese is more complicated than just switching the color schemes of the walls.\nYoung studied various models used in California bilingual schools and held many meetings with the school board, teachers and parents. Finally, they reached a consensus: The school will teach traditional Chinese during the first year and begin to introduce simplified Chinese from the second year on, thus exposing students to both systems.\nThe predicament P.S. 163 encountered has played out in many schools around the country.\nCurrently, two writing systems-traditional and simplified Chinese-are widely used in various parts of the world. Traditional Chinese, which has existed for more than 2,000 years, is written in Taiwan and Hong Kong.\nSimplified Chinese, popularized by Mao Tse-tung after he came to power in 1949, is the gold standard in mainland China. Simplified Chinese uses fewer strokes and groups similar-sounding words into common characters.\nSupporters of the traditional script have criticized Mao\u2019s language reform as arbitrary, and linguists have lamented that the beauty of the original ideograms was lost in the new shorthand version.\nThe furor over which method to adopt is also a matter of national identity and ideological debate, and the Chinese and Taiwanese governments are competing to mainstream their versions in the international arena.\n\u201cIf you study traditional, you can learn Chinese culture of 2,000 years,\u201d said Ethan C.Y. Kuo, director of the cultural division of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York. \u201cHowever, if you study simplified, you only have access to 50 years of Chinese history.\u201d\nSome educators believe that studying the traditional form adds depth to students\u2019 learning. \u201cIt is a very graphic and fun way to help children master Chinese,\u201d said Jerry Huang, Region 6 coordinator of the Association of Chinese Schools.\n\u201cThey can see how the characters evolved from pictures such as the mountain, sun and water. It will help them memorize the words.\u201d\nOther educators argue that starting with simplified Chinese makes learning the language less arduous, especially for foreigners.\nElizabeth Irwin High School, a private school in New York City, started offering Chinese classes two years ago. Because writing the characters has been difficult for the mostly white, black and Hispanic students, Zhang Guoqing, the school\u2019s Chinese teacher, opted to teach simplified Chinese.\n\u201cI don\u2019t expect all my students to grow up to be China experts,\u201d she said. \u201cIf they continue to study Chinese, they can choose whatever system they want at college.\u201d\nSome educators cater to the needs of students of both versions. Bai Jianhua, a professor of Chinese at Ohio\u2019s Kenyon College, lets his students pick their preference.\nHe uses hybrid textbooks, which are printed in both simplified and traditional characters. Students can choose which half of the book to use after they master the basics.\nAt Columbia University in New York City, students study traditional Chinese during the first two years of the bachelor\u2019s degree program in East Asian studies and then simplified Chinese during the second two years, said Columbia professor Liu Leling. \u201cWe want students to be able to use or recognize both,\u201d he said.\nThis year, for the first time, the College Board offered a new Advanced Placement test in Chinese language and culture. The 2,460 students who took the exam were able to view questions and type answers in either simplified or traditional Chinese, said Thomas Matts, director of AP Course Audit.\nThe AP test was sponsored in part by both mainland China and Taiwan. Mainland China funded half of the $1.37 million budget. The Taiwanese government kicked in $300,000.\nBoth governments have provided other assistance to foster the teaching of Chinese in the U.S.\nTaiwan organizes workshops and sends linguists to the U.S. to work with Chinese teachers. The government has also set up an e-learning site that allows teachers in the U.S. to access the latest teaching materials.\nFor its part, mainland China has sent 150 teachers to the U.S. since last year to help address a shortage of qualified Chinese instructors.\nIn 2004, the mainland government also set up the Confucius Institute, a rapidly expanding franchise that provides Chinese teachers and textbooks to educational institutions around the world.\nThe institute, which teaches only simplified Chinese, has opened 210 centers in 64 countries. Thirty-eight are located in the U.S.\nIn November, the University of Rhode Island signed a five-year contract with the Chinese government to open a Confucius Institute there.\nFor a less affluent state university like URI, the program serves as a quick solution to the growing demand for Chinese-language courses, said John Grandin, professor of German and director of the university\u2019s international-engineering program. \u201cIt was a pragmatic choice,\u201d Grandin said.\nThe university, which offers a dual-degree program in engineering and a foreign language had only one temporary instructor for its Chinese courses before its Confucius Institute opened. Now it has one permanent Chinese teacher and expects to add two more next year.\nSome critics of Confucius Institutes claim that they allow China to exert power and culturally invade other nations. Chinese authorities dismiss such allegations.\n\u201cWe do not force other institutions to open Confucius Institutes,\u201d said Fanglin Ai, consul of the education division of the Chinese consulate in New York.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a voluntary process.

        "raw_content": "State Legislative Hearings, Federal Bill Impacting Credit Unions\nCongress has a varied schedule of being \u201cin\u201d and out of legislative session throughout the year in Washington, D.C., and the state Legislature typically meets for the first three to four months of the year, but will utilize the rest of the year for multiple \u201coff session\u201d hearings. The activity in Congress as well as the off-session hearings on a state level are monitored closely. From a credit union perspective, it is important to be engaged early in the process on the bills that can impact the industry, as issues proposed in these hearings are almost impossible to alter once the session begins. Most recent Congressional activity as well as state-level hearings of industry interest include:\nOn September 18th the second state Joint Committee on Low THC Oil Access hearing was held in Carrollton as a series of events to analyze the state\u2019s policies and potential policies surrounding access to low-THC oil. From a credit union perspective, GCUA is monitoring how the state treats hemp, low-THC oil and any marijuana legislation, as being able to obtain financial services is a factor in this policy consideration given the conflict between state and federal government on this topic.\nOn September 24th the state Senate held the first of several hearings on a special study committee analyzing a potential special lottery to benefit veterans. There are six states that currently have a lottery-funded veterans\u2019 services program, and Georgia is presently weighing the option. From a credit union perspective this issue touches multiple areas of interest, from military to consumer to operations. During the hearing the senators\u2019 discussion touched on mortgage lending programs as well as the support groups that support the needs of veterans.\nOn September 25th U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) introduced legislation that would require credit unions to be examined for compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). Congress exempted credit unions from the CRA when it was enacted in 1977, determining that it was unnecessary and counter-intuitive for it to apply to member-owned financial cooperatives. If this bill moves forward, the benefits consumers receive from having credit unions in the marketplace could be jeopardized. To prepare for the discussion on this topic, please share with us the far-too-numerous examples of how your credit union provided loans to members who otherwise were turned down by other financial institutions; please email any examples to Cindy Connelly at cindyc@gcua.org.\nGCUA anticipates more hearings in the months ahead, and the activity in Congress will continue. In addition, GCUA continues to watch for news on the potential Amazon headquarters selection \u2013 as, if that happens, Governor Nathan Deal has shared that he will call the state Legislature back for a special session (any time) to outline tax incentives. Stay tuned.",

The 1988 Brazilian Constitution created many rights for citizens and hence full workload for the lawyers as people seek litigation. Twenty-six federal states in Brazil have got individual constitutions. The members get to enjoy some exclusive rights as well as the national government constitutionally accorded rights.\nIn each Brazilian State, there is a law school. It eventually leads to an increased number of lawyers in the country. Brazilians highly esteem the law course. Upon graduation, the students undergo an examination before admission to the bar of lawyers. Despite the lucrative start-up salaries for government lawyers, many of them end up working in private firms.In Brazil, there are two superior courts; one dealing with not- constitutional cases while the other deals with legal cases. Richard Tosto is a famous lawyer and entrepreneur in Brazil. He is a principal planner in law. Initially, he worked in a tiny office before eventually ascending the ladder in business.\nRichard Tosto worked in some of the prominent cases, acting on behalf of famous people and companies gaining national recognition. Also, he has offered litigation on behalf of private organizations and international companies.

'We have prevailed,' said...\nBangalore (ISJ) ? \"We have prevailed,\" said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he congratulated space scientists at the Telemetry Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in Bangalore, echoing the sentiments of a nation, which waited with bating breath and prayed for the success of Mars Orbiter Mission.\n\"History has been created today. We have dared to reach out to the unknown. And have achieved the near impossible,\" said Modi in a bilingual speech, a departure from his usual style.\nAccording to space scientists at ISTRAC, MOM has already taken five images of the Red Planet and hopes it would be available for public viewing by this evening.\n\"The odds were stacked against us. Of the 51 missions attempted across the world so far, a mere 21 had succeeded. But we have prevailed,\" said an elated Modi. 'With today's spectacular success, ISRO joins an elite group of only three other agencies worldwide, to have successfully reached the red planet. India, in fact, is the only country to have succeeded in its very first attempt.\"\nSceptics had criticised the project at its launch. Former Chief of ISRO G. Madhavan Nair, who was at helm at the launch of India?s first imaging mission to the moon ? Chandrayaan in 2008 had said it would be ?a national waste,\" and went on to describe it as \"a half-baked, half-cooked mission being attempted in undue haste with misplaced objectives.\"\nDevelopment Economist Jean Dreze at the Delhi School of Economics had criticised the mission saying, \"I don't understand the importance of India sending a space mission to Mars when half of its children are undernourished and half of all Indian families have no access to sanitation.\" He told the Financial Times, it was \"part of the Indian elite's delusional quest for superpower status.\"\nBut Prime Minister Modi silenced all critics and said, the mission was achieved at a fraction of the cost of missions by countries like the USA, European Union and Russia.\n\"A Hollywood film costs much more than what we have spent on Mars Orbiter Mission,\" he quipped.\nISRO head Dr. K. Radhakrishnan had recently told Rajya Sabha TV \"our focus always has been space applications.\"\nMeanwhile, NASA, the US space agency tweeted at the Indian success, \"We congratulate ISRO for its Mars arrival. Mars Orbiter joins the missions studying the Red Planet\".\nImage courtesy: PIB",

He came in between us, and fell right through the ice. He had a flashlight, and the flashlight fell to the bottom. This guy, he started to swim away from us but we yelled him to turn around and swim towards us. You could see the flight light in the bottom for a while, that was funny.\nPeter Irniq: Was it getting dark?\nJoe Atagutaaluk: He thought, we had made holes on the ice and drinking water but we were just along the edge. It was a bit far to that lake as well. We had our skates too, so the two guys were skating as fast as they could, and the guy was really running in between.\nPeter Irniq: Do you remember when Rene Otak broke his collar bone?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Rene, yes.\nPeter Irniq: He broke his collar bone, when we were playing foot ball.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: We used to do all kinds of things..\nPeter Irniq: We had some happy times in Chesterfield Inlet.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, absolutely! There were some happy moments..at least to me. There were quite a few happy moments.\nPeter Irniq: Do you remember all the happy times and what were you happy about?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Sort of.\nPeter Irniq: Can you talk about some of them?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: One of the things that I was very happy about what when we would go out trapping foxes. Those of us who were bigger. Every Saturday, we would go out and check our traps, by walking. We would wait the entire week to visit our traps. When we go to check on them, we would catch a fox on a trap. At that time, when it became November 15, we would have an anxious time. We would down to the beach in front us at the hostel, we would go and look for food garbage, that they used to throw out there. At one time, a Sister was trying to keep us from going to sleep until 12 midnight and when midnight came along, couple of us, would go down to the beach in the dark, and then set traps, with a hope of catching a fox. When they went to check them later on, they had a fox. And then, us, me and Jack(Anawak), Jack was my really good friend. Behind the community, there was a little shack, we noticed a small fox went under the house. We set up the trap and went out further for sometime. When we came back, we noticed we had a fox already. And then, we had another fox where we set up another trap. My goodness, we truly wanted to get foxes. That time during the year, it was fun, as a man. We noticed four men, side by side. Each had foxes in between them, in fact, they had lots of foxes, at that time! At that time, we were being taught how to skin a fox. Those made it sort of fun, as they were sort of preparing us, for eventually becoming true Inuit.\nSometimes, it was not happy at the hostel. Our house, it didn\u2019t bother me that much, even though, it does bother me at times. Over there, there were some unhappy situatins. When I got there for the first time, there were children who were eight years old. When I look at my children today and they are eight years old, they are still pretty small. That was how old I was when we left to go to school.\nPeter Irniq: You were still a little child?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Apparently, yes! I still remember most. When we got there for the first time, I had a favorite aunt. She was my mother\u2019s younger sister. She also went over there. Today, she is no longer alive. I could not see her for three days, when I was first there. When I did not see her for three days, I wanted to see her as I was remembering her. Where do these women go, I was thinking to myself. I must have been trying to becoming more clever, at this point. When I first started to try and notice where they went, I see the women would go upstairs and we boys were down here. When I would see them through a small window, they would go the stairs. I wondered, if she was up there too? So, I proceeded to go upstairs. When I got upstairs, I was asked, what I was doing? I said, I was up there to see my aunt. I was met with absolutely no smile, by a Sister! I was told, I am not supposed to be up there, they grabbed me and dragged me downstairs, back to boy\u2019s dorm! I was brought to our supervisor immediately. Here, I was eight years old, I was put to bed right away. One who didn\u2019t understand any of the rules applied to us.\nPeter Irniq: There was no attempt to make you understand why and here you were, you wanted only to see your aunt?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes.\nPeter Irniq: You only wanted to see your relative?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. It seemed we were not allowed to see our relatives immediately, upon arrival. If it was your sister, you were cut off from seeing her. Yes, over there, there were some very unhappy experiences. Also, I remember being put to bed, I don\u2019t know how many times, I was put into bed, even though, I thought, I was being pretty good, all the time, at this point. I thought, I was pretty obedient, but then, I would be dragged to be put to bed. At one point, we were outside and then went inside the hostel. When we got in, we of course, were told to go in. With the girls, we had to take turns to go in and out. When the little girls were out, we boys, were instructed, not to go outside. When we do go out, there was a special for the boys, to be at. When they got the little girls to go in, then, they allowed us boys to go outside. Soon after we had been outside, I was instructed to go inside. I didn\u2019t know why, I was told to go in. When I got in, I was brought to the boy\u2019s washroom, where we had several toilets. And I noticed there was someone who put into the toilet, the entire toilet paper. Someone flushed it and it got so full that it overflowed. It was so full that it spilled all over the floor, and there were toilet paper all over the floor. Then, they(Sisters) started to interrogate us little ones about it. They knew, I did not do it. As long as they pointed at me, then they said, it was me, who did it, there was no question about it.\nPeter Irniq: Was there someone who told on you?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: It was a fellow-child. When I was being pointed at, they said, it was me. I tried to tell them, I didn\u2019t do it as I knew, I didn\u2019t do it. I was blamed for it. When they got to know it was not me, but it was already to late, to correct it, then it became me, who did it. The Sisters made sure of that. Then, they dragged me to go to bed.\nPeter Irniq: During the broad daylight?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: During the afternoon. It was after, we had finished schooling in the afternoon. The next day, I had to prepare a toilet paper like this. See those little lines and blocks on the toilet paper? The next day, they made me, prepare this toilet paper into three little pieces like this, on this toilet paper. They made me to fix them up and set them up, on top of each other, for other people to use. For a time, it was only me, who was doing that, but then, it became all of us doing this. We would use them to blow your nose and to wipe your ass. That entire exercise became a rule!\nPeter Irniq: And only because the toilet was overflowing?!\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, only because the toilet overflowed. I was not responsible for it.\nPeter Irniq: Did they find out, it was not you who did it?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: I don\u2019t think, they ever found out. Also, at one time, some one broke a window. I never know to this day, why I was blamed for these things, often. One of my fellow-children, blamed me for it. At home here at that time, I never knew anything about a window. The last thing I would have thought of, is to break a window, let alone, not knowing, that a window would break. They said, it was me, who broke the window. Again, they put me to bed, in the day time. I was of course, not sleepy at all! We never got any orientation what-so-ever. For one thing, we were not told about the windows being able to break easy. When they thought, we did something, they put us to bed. Then, I went to bed again. We must have been thought of as foolish children. As a child, I didn\u2019t think, they were a big deal for us to be put in bed. When I was younger, thinking back about the way, we were treated, I used to think, \u201cgood, they have all died!\u201d Now, I don\u2019t think that. At that time, I used to think, since they did so many bad things to us, I used to think, they got what they deserve. As a result, they will not be able to do anything like that to anyone else. But, that was how things were done at that time.\nPeter Irniq: Are those types of punishments, that were part of the rules?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, those were the ways of punishing us, instead of teaching us, they totally avoided teaching us or informing us the right way. They would punish us, and wanted us to know, before hand, that these things were not the right way. They expected us to know things, that we did not know. They had an attitude that, you should know about these things, before hand, that they were wrong ways of doing things. The minute we got to Chesterfield Inlet, they got us to become adults, immediately! It looked like that.\nPeter Irniq: As a young boy, when you lived near Iglulik or around Iglulik, and when you suddenly spilled the toilet bowl, would have been punished severely by your mother?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: No! I know, I would not have been punished. If you have an accident not on purpuse, people know. He didn\u2019t do this on purpose. People knew, when you did things on purpose. If I did something like that at home, I would not have been punished for it, either by my mother or my father. About these things, they brought us up, totally differently, in Chesterfield Inlet.\nPeter Irniq: They introduced you to a totally foreign culture, that was not part of Inuit culture?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. When I first went to Chesterfield Inlet, I did not at all know, English. No wonder, and it\u2019s not surprising that I never entered a classroom before. As soon as I entered the classroom in Chesterfield Inlet, the teacher opened the window, and threw out my Inuit language, out the window, immediately! My language in Inuktitut was then, left outside! We were then taught to speak English! They allowed us to do things, with such force or vigour! Inside the classroom, you are not to speak Inuktitut! If you speak Inuktitut, you will pay for the consequences! If you speak it, you will be hit a with a large measuring tape, a yard stick, and hit on your hand.\nPeter Irniq: That was if you spoke in Inuktitut language?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes! If you spoke in Inuktitut inside the classroom.\nPeter Irniq: When you first left Iglulik, were you not able to speak in English, at all, as well?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. Absolutely!\nPeter Irniq: And you were eight years old?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. We always lived at a small outpost came. We never lived in a community. And the Qablunaat(White People), who were in Iglulik, did not go to outpost camps. Those of us who lived in outpost camps, were all Inuit, and all spoke Inuktitut language. Only in Inuktitut, since time immemorial.\nPeter Irniq: Now that you are an adult, do you speak to your fellow-Inuit in Inuktitut, since long time ago?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: I normally do. But, when you go out to different places, and when people speak a different dialect, then you feel, maybe they won\u2019t understand me, speaking my own dialect, then you sort of have to speak in English. When you go into a different community, whose dialect is different, then you have to do this but here in our community, I try to speak Inuktitut all the time, to my fellow-community members.\nPeter Irniq: When we were in Chesterfield Inlet, at that time, one of the things that was really wonderful for us, was the movies, and we would go to the movies, every Friday night, it seemed. You mentioned earlier that you had punishements, and knowing the fact that, going to see movies, were one of our favorite past times, as we enjoyed watching cowboy movies. If we did do something, and if we didn\u2019t listen for example, without knowing or not on purpose, we would have been told, \u201cno picture show for you tonight on Friday\u201d. Do you remember this as well?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. Some were made to do this, and it was done to me as well. I used to be very envious of the children going to the movies, and again, my punishment was to go to bed, again. I would be in bed, wide awake. I was \u201cbad\u201d in their eyes, so they would stop me from going to the movies.\nPeter Irniq: It was really fun going to the movies.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: It was wonderful but sometimes you think the other way as well. Sometimes, when you didn\u2019t feel like going to a movie, especially when someone said, what we are going to watch tonight is a scary movie, so you didn\u2019t really wanted to go to a movie but, they let you go anyways and told be \u201cpart of it\u201d. You had to go along. We had to follow all these, and we were not free to not to them.\nPeter Irniq: So, when we did things that we liked doing, we would be punished for them, if they thought, we were doing things, against their will?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, the punishment that used to get, was very big for what we thought were for small things. When you did things without knowing or what they appeared to be small things, you would get a severe punishment for it. At one time, we walked to the land, going out to check our fox traps, then when we got home, we were cold, and it was not a wonder, it was cold outside. We put all our boots into one spot, and you will obviously remember, Sister Girard. She spoke French fluently, as a French woman. She also spoke some Inuktitut. She was also learning to speak English. She started to speak to us in English and there were quite a few of us, sitting on the floor. I started to imitate how she was speaking in English. She came over to me when she found out, took me to dormitory and had got me to sit on the floor. I was trying my best to apologise to her about what happened. But, she just told me to sit on the floor. When it was 12 o\u2019clock, she came over, and told me to go for lunch. I responded by saying, \u201cyou told me to sit down, I am going to remain sitting.\u201d\nPeter Irniq: Our big house, the place where we slept, can you describe it?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. Where she had me sitting down, she got me to have lunch, then after lunch, she got me return to our dormitory. She then, got me to sit on the floor again. She got me to sit on the floor around 10:30 in the morning, had a quick lunch, got me to sit again in the dormitory, finally at 3 p.m., when she said, it was time for my bath, she got me to stand up. That was how it was, and it was a long period of time. Later on, when I became an adult, I went to see where we used to sleep, it was one huge room. It had beds, all lined up like this, and there were quite a few. They may have been a row of six this way, and perhaps 24 rows this way. There might have been about 40 beds, as there was may be 40 boys, that went to school. The beds were all lined up very straight this way and that way, in one huge bedroom, the dormitory. At each end of the dormitory, our supervisors had their individual rooms, where they slept.\nAt one time, I was curious about where they used to pee, especially since they had huge dresses, as Qablunaat. When I got older and became an adult, and was free to do what I wanted to do, I went to see their bedrooms. Apparently, they shared one washroom, between the two bedrooms, where they slept. I had overcome my curiosity. Also, some beds could be on top of each other for some. Perhaps, you were there or had gone to where else, at that point. These were particularly set aside for the big boys. At one time, they had me sleeping on top bunk. I fell off the bunk bed, at one point!\nPeter Irniq: I think, I was no longer there.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. I think, there I was taught a pretty good schooling, there. There was loud siren that they had, whether it was night or not. And they were teaching us what to do, when that happened. There was a door way from our dormitory, and then there were stairs from there. We would wrap a blanket completely, and used to go outside, when there was a practice drill. We did this at night, even though, we had been a sleep. We would go down the steps and went outside, even though, it was cold outside. No one froze. I think, we were taught pretty good about this then. We were also taught pretty good, if there was an emergency, especially taught not to panic. I don\u2019t think, I learned very well, when I was a \u201ctrader\u201d at the coop here, when the store was on fire, I became panicky. It was extremely scary!\nPeter Irniq: If in fact, there was a fire at the hostel and there were about 70 or so, boys and girls, together. Where do you think, they would have send us to? Have you been told, where we would have gone to?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, for sure? Not at all, we were told nothing, the only thing they taught us, was how to get out of the building, in case, there was a fire. We kind of knew about this prior, as we were told that we would have fire drill training. If there was a real fire, this is where, you are going to go to. No one told us about this. Perhaps, they would have send all of you to the school.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, perhaps. Maybe to the hospital. I am not sure, where they would have taken us to. I know one thing for sure, they would not have taken us to Inuit homes, at that time. The local Inuit there, as our fellow-Inuit, we used to try and make friends with them, by visiting them. It was fun to visit local Inuit, at that time. But when our Supervisors found out that we were visiting, we would then again be told to go to bed, as part of the rules applied to us. They would get the boys together and the girls together but separate from each other. The boys were gathered and were then asked, as to \u201cwho have you visited?\u201d When the question was asked, all of the boy\u2019s hands went up. I did not put up my hand, as I did not participated visiting. When there were only a few us, perhaps five of us, who did not visit the local Inuit. All the others, who put up their hands, indicating that they had visited, were all put to bed, as punishment. They apparently did the same thing to the girls. Those who did not visit, came downstairs, they were not many, perhaps seven. Those who indicated visiting, apparently were put to bed to punish them. Those of us, who were \u201cbetter\u201d than the others, they got us together. They got us to play bingo, and had placed various things on the table, for prizes. Then, we were playing bingo, as though it was a real bingo game. While participating at a bingo game, I suddenly remembered, that I visited certain people. As soon as I remembered, the supervisors there seemed to know all about what happened. I became very scared! I wanted to tell them out loud that I had done this, while playing bingo at the same time. I was actually quite struggling to tell. I figured, the supervisors knew about this, wow, it was scary! I wasn\u2019t doing this on purpose. If I had remembered earlier about my previous visit to the local Inuit, I would have been put to bed right away, along with the others. Only when we got together, I remembered my visit, it became extremely scary. If they found out about this, I would have been considered a lair. Now at least, that\u2019s in the past.\nPeter Irniq: When we were made to trap foxes at that time, how much money did you get for one fox, that you caught?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: What I remember about this was that one fox was worth $3, at that time.\nPeter Irniq: That was in 1958.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. Around that time, 58, 59. One pelt was worth $3, so I got seven foxes, that entire year. I got a lot of money, totally $21. I was told that I had $21 and then was told, I could order things from the catalogue. When she brought a catalogue in front of me, I was looking through it with anxiety, right through it. And then, wow, I found a rifle, a 22 calibre. There was no cartridge and only allowed to put one bullet, at a time.\nPeter Irniq: Yes, you load, only one bullet at a time.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, if you shoot, take out the empty bullet and then put another one in. It was that kind. I bought a rifle. It cost something like $14.19. Wow! Then, I was looking and found beautiful wrist watches. They were very cheap. Now, I bought those two for less than $21. I then added several other things which I bought with the rest of the money. That was how, I started to buy things. The big thing was, I even bought a rifle. I bought these things with the seven foxes that I got that year. When you consider the 22 with no cartridge today, they cost a lot of money now. It was fun, at that time.\nPeter Irniq: Did you have money left over?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: No, we had to make sure, we spent them all. As we had to spend all of it, I bought three things with the money. Prior to that, my father sent to me $2 at that time.\nPeter Irniq: This must have been a lot of money.\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: When I got the $2, it was huge money! It was taken by our Supervisor right away. After the school was over, I asked, if I could go to the store with the money. So, we went to the store to the Hudson\u2019s Bay Company. You know these brown papers like this, I loaded up with things, with the money I bought it, it was right full. It was full of things, that are really useful things. I bought sweets with him, such as candies, chocolate bars and gums. After I had spent a dollars, then I still had a dollar left over, to spend. I saved it for future so that I could use it, sometime down the road. At that time, things were very cheap. Wow!\nPeter Irniq: When you entered the classroom for the first time, do you remember what it looked like inside?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: No really. The thing that I remember most was when we were brought inside the classroom that, they opened the window, and then throw out your Inuit language outside. They closed the window, and then started to teach us in English.\nOnly when I got a bit bigger, perhaps during the third year, or second year of schooling, I wanted to go to the washroom. The immediate answer was flat NO. It\u2019s not a wonder, I needed to pee. The answer was flat no. Then, it became completely hopeless. Here I was trying to learn something in school, at the same time, I needed to pee so badly, knowing full well that my teacher did not allowed me to go to the washroom. So finally, I was asked to help someone, perhaps it was Karlik or Komaksiutiksaq, who had requested some help to fill up a water tank with water. They chose me to go. When I got chosen to go, I went to the furnace room, and started to fill the water tank with water. Then, over there was a doorway. Here, I should just gone out and peed outside but didn\u2019t. But I guess, hearing the water running, I peed in my pants, by accident, as I could no longer help it. I tried to hold on to my pee but as soon as it started go, it went all the way. Here, I could have just gone out and peed, as no one would have caught me. I was scared. When I peed, my pants got all went, no wonder. It was 12 o\u2019clock at this point, I left with the other students to go to the hostel to eat. Here, I was all wet. If the supervisors found out about this, I would have been beaten by them. They could have done anything to me. I just continued using my wet pants. Only when Saturday came along, we used to change our clothing. We wore our clothing for entire week but when Saturday came along, we would be allowed to have a bath, and only then, we would change our clothes. My pants were wet at first, but as I was using them, for what looked like an entire week, they dried up. I kept using them all the way, I must have gotten pretty stinky. I was really scared of the supervisors. If they knew, they would have done something to me.\nI remember one other time about the other children. The weather was some what like this outside, when snow was beginning to melt(in May). These children were playing outside when the surface became wet and as a result they got all wet. Well, I remember the Sisters ordered them inside, told them to take their pants down, and started whipping them, with the belts. That is what they might have done to me, if they found out I was wet from peeing my pants.\nPeter Irniq: Do you remember some students because they could not speak English and ask the teacher, \u201cI would like to go to the washroom\u201d that they ended up having an accident inside the classroom and peed their pants? Have you ever notice some of those?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: I actually did not notice anyone. I think, that was sometimes obvious for both boys and girls as well. It was extremely difficult to try to tell the teacher that you needed to go. This was a hard part for us, as we did not speak fluent English, because we were real Inuit to begin with. And when we needed to go to the washroom, they didn\u2019t think, it was the major problem. That was how, they treated us. I just never got anything done to me, because I was hiding things very much.\nPeter Irniq: Was there a teacher teaching Inuktitut inside the classroom?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Not right inside the classroom itself. But, just outside of the school, there was a workshop, so that gentleman from Kangir&iniq(Rankin Inelet) Pierre Karlik, used to teach us how to make toy sleigh, he taught us some Inuit cultural ways, even though, it was in a small way. That was only at that place and when you got inside the actual classroom, then you have nothing in Inuktitut, what-so-ever.\nPeter Irniq: Did you learn to make fish net there?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, at home, where we were. They were fun to do! I used to finish, two spools at a time. We used to stand next to each other making nets, which was fun part. And the other fun part was when we were trying to see who could finish first. So, we used to have a competition, as to who, could finish the net first. I can and know how to make fish nets, but I buy the ones that are already made, ready for use, from the store. The first one I made over there, I gave it to my grandfather. I made three nets in three years. The first two I made I gave them to my grandfather and his brother. The third one I made, I gave it to my father. So we made fish nets. The floats were not included from the store, so we made floats out of ordinary wood. We made them very good looking. We learned to make things like that, at that time. They really were wonderful.\nPeter Irniq: What about the priests, did you have catechisms? Did they come around to teach as well?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, they came and to preach about religion. They taught us, inside our classrooms. When they came to our home, they did not talk about it.\nPeter Irniq: When we were going to school in Chesterfield Inlet, we had all kinds of rules, in which, many of those have quite a lot of impact on all of us, in every which way. Many Survivors talked a great deal about how, we used to be abused, as a result, we have to have a healing for life, and it is a real healing for us. Do you have something to tell us about this?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: I cannot really talk about it, in depth. I cannot talk about it to it\u2019s end. I don\u2019t think, I can even talk about it in every detail. I will probably jump from issue to issue. Well, when I first got there, I was taught about praying, believing. I can speak about praying and it\u2019s something that is good. We would go to pray at 6:30 in the morning, started the church service at 7 a.m., Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. On Sundays, at 6:30, then later in the morning, at 10:30. And after lunch at 3 p.m., then 7 in the evening. Four times a day. Then, on Monday, during the week, we would say the rosary, every day, right after school, at our hostel, for entire year. That first year, I remember it very well. But, the next year, it was not as much as it was during the previous year. But, I like it. To this day, I am not angry about the church services or prayers we had. Whenever I can go to church, I go to church, at every opportunity. But the thing is, because of who the priests and Angilican are today. It is not what they were. This is why, I can go to church today. In Chesterfield Inlet, there was that darn person, who tried to make friends with the children, in (a sexual way). If that person is here and working here today, I would not be going to church whats-so-ever! And to think of this, it is not what these priests were then, I am able to go to church today. And I struggle to try and make sure, that these church people we have today, are not those of what we had at that time, as a result, I am able to go to church today. I am not praying to those people, I think they are sent to as messengers to preach about believing. But, when those others were doing things that they were doing to us, it makes you very angry. Looking back, it makes you extremely angry. I never had any real close friends, I think, because I was put to bed too many times. My fellow-children used to turn on me. My fellow children used to point fingers at me. It makes you think, that was the only kind of friend I had and accepted it. Looking back about it, it angers me very fast. Having talked about it somewhat, I am now able to leave it behind, more so than before. Now that I can leave it behind me, I can now refrain from thinking about it. It taught me a great deal of lesson and I have seen many people, who done this sort of thing here in our community. I have never wanted to pass on this issue to our children. Looking back to what happened to us in the past over there, it sometimes, makes me think that, \u201cgood now that these people are gone, those who have done wrong to us\u201d. It is not a wonder, that these people did things that they were not supposed to do.\nWhy is it, that Catholic priests are not supposed ? How come the Grey Nuns cannot have husbands? We are all made to want, all of us. I believe that this topic should be considered seriously by the Pope. That is precisely what I think about. This business of wanting, will always be around.\nI also hear of Anglicans who went to schools as well. Those of us who were brought up as Roman Catholics, we were the ones, who attended that school over in Chesterfield Inlet. And also, others who went to other schools, they were sexually abused. It\u2019s exactly the same way. I wonder why, this is such so strong. I don\u2019t want to let go of my beliefs. As a result, as long as I can go to church, I will. But, whatever I learned in Chesterfield Inlet, in terms of praying and in terms of the faith, I will use it. I know that I did not get them from the priests and Christian brothers, at that time. We were taught about religion but this faith is much bigger. This is why, I am able to go to church. I think, sometimes we do not consider those, who were hurt. This is how, I can say it.\nPeter Irniq: Those things, for example, if you don\u2019t want to answer my question, it\u2019s okay but if you want to answer it, that is okay. Those who were sexually abused at that time, the children, or as very small children, if we were at home, we would not have been abused like that, as it is not in the culture of the Inuit, those who were sexually abused, they are healing today, forever or lifetime. They want to heal since then, from there. What would you say to them, your fellow-Inuit?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Well, I cannot say it. But, I am aware of a need to feel. A need for feeling of needing to help a child, because, he/she is a child. Sexually abusing a child, is not helping the little child. A little child doesn\u2019t seem to feel as a child but when they start to grow, and become aware of things, they can get angry. He will have a reason to be angry. I think, we need to think further ahead. Ever since then, what happened to us, has been following us, this is how I see it. As we grew up, we kept holding on to what happened to us over there, and in the end, we are very angry about it. As for me, I have been able to heal about what happened as I have been able to get it out in to public, not particularly to yourself but it has healed me much more. I have been able to heal great deal more from it. I am able to think more about the fact that, \u201clet\u2019s not do these things to little children.\u201d Children do not think about these things. When they become older, they can think for themselves. Sometimes, they are made to take some things, they are going to be angry about later on.\nPeter Irniq: When they were sexually abused as little children, as a result, their childhood was taken away from them?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes, that is right. When they sent me to Chesterfield Inlet to school, I think, it was their attitude that I should be knowledgeable like an adult, at that instant. This is probably how, we were treated during the time, we were away and for those of us, who were sent away. Even some of those children, who were not sent out, they were also abused by some teachers. They forget to notice the fact that they are children! It\u2019s nice that we have children, they have the freedom to do whatever they want to do, if they want to play in the puddle of water, that\u2019s okay. The thing is, when you did that in Chesterfield Inlet, then guaranteed, you were going to be whipped. We were taught to do adult things right away. Now, you do things the way, adults do, that was how we were treated.\nPeter Irniq: Those who were supposed to be our \u201cmothers\u201d and \u201cfathers\u201d, they didn\u2019t have on their hands, any skills, to do with parenting? Is that right? It seems like, they did not have any love?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Perhaps yes. But, maybe because, our culture was too different to their culture. We even had a Grey Nuns, a Sister, who was an Inuk. She was just an ordinary employee, so she could defended us but she was not given any powers and had no strength. She knew the Inuit ways, but she had rules to follow, so she could not do too much. Those who had authority, had absolutely no idea about Inuit culture, that was the problem. It was like them saying, \u201cleave your Inuit culture behind.\u201d Expect instead to becoming a Qablunaat, a Whiteman. This was what I think, was happening right away, right from the start.\nPeter Irniq: When they took us to go to school in Chesterfield Inlet, was it their policy to make us Qablunaat(White People)?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: It seems pretty much that way. I could perhaps say, I do not target the people of Chesterfield Inlet, at all. I want them to be my friends. I want to have them as my good neighbors. But the ones, who were our Supervisors, authorities, they seem to wanted us to become White People. In regards to the White Man\u2019s culture, learn it well, that was why, we had to follow what his culture was. Today, you can go sleep and woke up at 12, these children are able to do it, they can do it. If they totally understand Inuit culture, they can use it. I think, they wanted us to be assimilated to becoming Qablunaat(White People). We had to use forks to eat. When I first using forks to eat, I could not do it at all in the beginning. It\u2019s not a wonder, when I lived in my hometown, I never, did really see any of these these eating utensils, prior to going to Chesterfield Inlet. Today, we can use them properly. My children are taking them at my own home. At that time, we just did not know how to use them. We used to eat frozen cow beef, as there was absolutely no caribou. We had maktaaq. We had frozen Arctic Char. We had fish, whose guts were still in the fish. When we were going to have boiled fish, they would cut up the fish into chunks, and then, they would have their guts attached to them, that we are now going to eat boiled! We were made to try and drink the fish broth! Like, they had guts in them! Then, we had to eat them. Prior, that was not how our people did. They could eat some of the guts but, they used to and knew how to separate the guts, between what was good to eat and not good to eat. But, we at the hostel had to follow their rules and eat them, the way they served them, and we had to eat them ..for sure!\nPeter Irniq: At our own home, we would not have eat what we ate at the hostel?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Yes. Yes, that was the case. Here is one, I used to think of quite often. Whenever we would be leaving for Chesterfield Inlet, my mother used to make me brand new seal skin boots, that were water proof, but when we got to the Hostel, they were taken away and they gave us new, shoes. When we got back home to Iglulik, they didn\u2019t appear, they didn\u2019t come back home with us. My mother used to ask, what ever happened to your seal skin boots? The only answer I used to give her was, \u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d. She thought, we would be using them while we were over there. The thing was, when we left from here, we used them, that was the last time we saw them. We never knew anything about what happened to them, even though, our mothers worked really hard to make them well, chewing and softening the soles, sewing the entire boots, we used them once and after that, that was it, we never saw them again. What happened to them? They just left them to rott! Should we try to do something about that? I don\u2019t know. I think, there is something out there, that we can do something. Have you had that experience?\nPeter Irniq: My experience was exactly the same as yours. When I got home, I check my bag, there was no kamiik(no boots).\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Here they were, our mothers worked really, really hard to sew those boots. They sewed them really well, to make them look nice. How do we retrieve those boots. I sometimes think of what to do about this.\nPeter Irniq: Today, if we could have another meeting, as long as we are alive. We now meet about the things that happened to us, and we met in Chesterield Inlet, in 1993, July 5 to 9. We talk about bad things, I mean, not bad things but things that touched us personally, things that had impact on us, and we talked about those issues for five days. The things that we talked about, things that we worked so hard about, did they help our fellow-Inuit?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: To me, yes. When we were preparing to go there, I really did not wanted to go, because I wasn\u2019t sure exactly what I was going to get into. I was think of wonderful times or maybe I wasn\u2019t going to make other people happy but when we got there, we let out, what was bothering us for a long time. That part had a great deal of help to me. Perhaps, my friends had felt the same way as me. Suppose we have another gathering, I think, we could bring out issues that are much more positive this time around. Over there, we talked a lot about negative impacts on each one of us.\nPeter Irniq: If we were to have another reunion and talk about our successes at the Residential School in Chesterfield Inlet. Would this be helpful?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: I would like it very much to talk about the big help this educational facility has had to us who went to Chesterfield Inlet. Looking back to the time that I was in Chesterfield Inlet, it was not all bad. The system of moving education, was extremely good. Looking back, how did we retrieve so much of Inuktitut language, from our parents? Over there, they wanted to begin stopping Inuktitut in the classroom, but modern education in southern way, something I gain a lot of understanding from. Can we talk about the foundation of the schools in our communities. We already know that we are trying to keep on our hands, our Inuktitut language. We are trying to make sure this happens. But, education in English, it is becoming a way of life for Inuit. I know, we are not going to return to the traditional ways of the Inuit, completely. Never-the-less, we have to take pride in the fact that our Ancesters have brought us here to this day, even though, it was a long journey. It think, it would have many uses, if we could meet again in Chesterfield Inlet and talk about the modern education system. Like, how can we improve the current education system, within Nunavut?\nPeter Irniq: Most of all, do you think the Government of Nunavut could learn a great deal from us, who have gone to the Residential School?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Some of it, yes. They could learn some from it. It is quite obvious. For example, you Peter Irniq, have participated in the making the Government of Nunavut, perhaps, those who have gone to school there, could provide more strength to the Government of Nunavut. Especially with what we are trying to do today.\nPeter Irniq: When we were going to school there at a residential school, we did not learn almost nothing about Inuit culture. But looking at the Survivors who went there, they appear to be very strong people. I think, they could also vision the future. Also, we had very strong parents at that time. They knew their Inuit culture in a very big way, and practiced it well. It would seem to be that these young people who are going to school today, would benefit from learning more about Inuit culture and where Inuit came from. Especially at the high school level. If they take more of their own culture, do you think, they could use this for their future strength? Is this true? Does it seem to have any truth to it?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: To think of it, it seems to be true. I think, we have to return to our past. For example, in Ottawa, Nunavut Sivuniksavut is working very hard. They have a lot of responsibility. What they do is they learn things down there, that they could have learned up here and when that happens, they say, oh, really, we could have learn that at home. They finally come to that conclusion, when they are learning more about Inuit culture, when they got to Ottawa. Perhaps, what they learn down there, they could be transferred to Nunavut and put into practice inside the classrooms in Nunavut. I think, they could gain a lot more knowledge. Talking about my own children, they do not have a complete knowledge about Inuit culture. We have not taught them. We were taught by our parents. And because, I have other responsibilities, I don\u2019t have all the time in the world, to teach them all. They should be put inside the classrooms. They would have a lot of people to our students.\nPeter Irniq: Regarding as to what happened to us in Chesterfield Inlet, in terms of what happened to us about abuses and regarding our education system, what would you like to tell our southern Qablunaat in particular in the rest of Canada?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: To tell the people down there, maybe if I was a big boss..\nPeter Irniq: Suppose, you became a Prime Minister of Canada\u2026\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Inuit live here and they know about their land more than anyone else. They should be asked more questions, what do you want for your land? What would you want for your territory? Today it seems as though, we are just put or located here. Even though, Iglulik is here, and here is what it needs\u2026as a commuity..we are just given things here and there. And the things that Inuit truly need, they are not coming up, they are not popping up. Just using Nanisivik as an example, there are no more people there.\nAnd now, they just want to give it to the Military. Why does Military have to be here? There are lots of other things that need to be considered. We need instead that we as Inuit can enhance what we need. Where are they? I think, these things need to be felt more by the Canadian Government. Government always, \u201cwe have no monies\u201d. It is pretty obvious now that the designed for Nunavut, particularly of what Inuit need, priorities, things that can allow us move forward, we need to see the money increased. And for those who are the survivors of residential school, many of them are hurt and need healing. They say, there is some money for healing but, they are not at all easy to get into. They seem to be really hard to get into, unless, you have all kinds of policies or have to go through so much red tape to finally get something. If you can get through all that, then you can finally get some of it. I think for another, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission on Residential Schools, only has five-year mandate. But as long as you have rules that are completely tied up, then, it\u2019s not going to be easy. It is then, it seems, useless to get into it. Or trying to get something from it. I don\u2019t know how.\nPeter Irniq: When we were going to a residential school, they were trying to have us assimilated into the White Man\u2019s world, and not having any Inuit cultural programs for a long time, afterwards. The school opened in 1953 and closed in 1969. When was it have you decided to retrieve your Inuit identity, or your Inuitness?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Not very long ago. After Chesterfield Inlet, I returned home, probably in 1969 or 68. Probably in 1968, I returned home for good. So, when I got here, I started to work and started to make money, around 1968. And also, I wanted to take some of the culture of the Qablunaaq(White Man). But, my father was a full-time hunter, he would be out hunting with his dog team and would return, so my mother would tell me, \u201cgo and help your father\u201d. I tended to follow my mother\u2019s instructions. Perhaps, it was around that time, that I started to return to the ways of the Inuit, particularly Inuit culture. It was like this, when my father came home from hunting, then if my mother tells me to go and help my father, then, I would do whatever she wanted me to do, to help my father. Today, when they are told to do that, they seem to be able to tell you, \u201cwait\u201d. At that time, it was not possible to say, wait. When you were told do something, you had to do it, as it was to help someone. A need to listen and follow what you were told by your mother, was an Inuit way of life and part of our culture. I think, it was around 1968, I decided immediately, to take back my culture.\nPeter Irniq: The teachers who hit us with a yard stick, when they heard us speaking Inuktitut, and they used to severely punish us, it seemed as though, they went overboard, I think, as Inuit, we think that\u2026are you carrying anger towards them?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Part of it, yes, it used to be. It was during the earlier years that I used to be more angry but since then, I have been talking about it quite a lot, I tend to be carrying less anger. But, following Inuit culture, if a little child was not behaving, we used to be able to spank them. Looking back at their system, when the punished us, it was like, they could have just spanked us but they used to go overboard with the punishments, I think, that part broke us apart. Then later on, the government made law, that you are not to touch your child. They then, broke more of the Inuit unwritten laws. Now, up to this day, we are not to do anything at all, to our children, in a way of discipline. As long as they are able to speak, if you do anything to them, then, they tell the police and the Social Workers get involved, that is the way, they are today. If the teachers at that time would have been reported about what they were doing, then they could have been dealt with as well. They hit us! If they could have used Inuit culture and only spank us, without needing to use a weapon. I would not have mind so much, if only they spanked us to discipline us, I would not have mind so much but, the yard stick was three feet? They used those to hit you, and hit you hard! Then, they could have been dealt with by the Police and by the Social Services! No one was moved or cared about to do anything about what they did to us. I used to be very angry at those but having gotten them out of my system, I am no longer angry about them.\nPeter Irniq: I have no more questions, Joe, do you have anything else to tell?\nJoe Ataguttaaluk: Hmmm..well, when we were in Chesterfield Inlet, referring to men, especially those, who were our age group, for those of us, who were from the hostel, I wonder why, we allowed ourselves or for whatever reason, we had them as our enemies or opponents. For this reason, I have apologized to them. To those, who lived in their own homes, we were friends inside the classroom. But, when we got outside of the classroom, we then used to start a fight. Looking back, I think to myself, what was the use? What a waste of time, it was! I have told them personally, I was sorry about this. And I was very thankful to Andre Tautu, who came from Chesterfield Inlet, he also acknowledged and apologized to us. I don\u2019t know why, we were doing that, perhaps, because we were just being little children. I just wanted to emphasize this.\nPeter Irniq: Thank you very much to you. Wonderful!",

This indicates that Takebe's constituency has revolted against him.\nThe language used differs from one resolution to another. Not only assembly members of the Japanese Communist Party but also conservative parties and independents, postmasters, and residents concerned promoted them.\nWhile the ruling Liberal Democratic and Komei parties are pushing ahead with the plan in the Diet, members associated with these parties in Hokkaido opposed this.\nA former postmaster heading the 2,500-member association of retired postmasters and other persons concerned told Akahata as follows: \"Although we are with the LDP, the passage of resolutions in so many assemblies in Hokkaido clearly represent how Hokkaido people are opposed to the proposed privatization of postal services. The government must listen. It should acknowledge that in a recent public opinion survey only 2 percent of respondents are urging the government to give top priority to the postal service privatization policy.\" (end)",

        "raw_content": "Diabetes & Social Security Disability\nDoes Having Diabetes Qualify Me for Disability Benefits?\nIf you are living with Diabetes (Type I or Type II)...\n...You may be eligible to receive financial aid from the Social Security Administration. If you have been diagnosed with Diabetes, you are likely struggling with the disease. Fortunately, the government provides disability benefits for those that have been affected by the disease.\nDiabetes is very common, affecting nearly 2.1% of the population. The most common symptoms include diminished vision, exhaustion, dizziness, high blood pressure, general pain, and a host of other issues. Often times, these symptoms can prevent you from working.\nIf you have been diagnosed with Diabetes and want to see if you qualify for Social Security Disability Benefits, get the facts by below. Then, contact us for a free evaluation of your situation.\nHow can I find out if diabetes qualifies for disability benefits?\nMany of the symptoms experienced by a person with severe diabetes qualifies them to receive Social Security disability benefits. The SSA (Social Security Administration) looks at several factors when determining a case. Under the Social Security Act, \"disability\" is defined as the \"inability to take part in any substantial activity by reason of any medical, physical, or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or has lasted or can last for a period of no more than 12 months.\" What this means is that if your Diabetes is severe enough to prevent you from working for at least 12 months, then you are eligible to receive disability benefits.\nWhile diabetes alone won't prevent you from working, the accompanying symptoms might. This includes blurred or poor vision, kidney failure/issues, nerve damage, cardiovascular problems, skin conditions, and amputations. To find out if your condition is severe enough to qualify for disability benefits, contact us today for free and let's talk about your situation.\nWhat's the process of receiving disability benefits?\nThe Social Security Administration determines whether you're disabled by reviewing your medical and employer records. Often these records extend back a year or more, so it's important to start gathering documentation well ahead of any appeals or hearings. Because doctors don't always know what legally constitutes a disability, we make sure they describe and present your information in a way that makes sense to the Social Security Administration. At Bothwell & Hamill, we'll help you collect, organize and evaluate your records to maximize your chance of success.\nFirst, be honest and thorough when reporting your condition to Social Security. People are sometimes embarrassed to report psychological difficulties or learning disabilities, even though both can be important factors in receiving benefits. A lawyer can also vastly improve your chances; Social Security's own numbers show that that people with legal counsel are much more likely to win benefits. Call our office. We'd be happy to talk.\nIf you want to see if your particular situation qualifies for Social Security disability benefits, contact us today. More people win disability benefits with our help than when they try to win benefits on their own.",

        "title": "Why I Love the King James Version part 1 (Proverbs 18:1) \u2014 Josh Ingram",
        "raw_content": "\"Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.\" (Proverbs 18:1)\nThe King James Version of the Holy Bible was published around 400 years ago in 1611. It remains the bestselling book of all time. Its poetic cadence and rich density of meaning have inspired countless individuals and societies to pursue both God and their own literary arts.\nI'm going to elucidate the above verse as recorded in the King James Version and explain just what I think it means for the spiritual seeker.\nWith reference to other versions, the first verse of the eighteenth chapter of Proverbs is nearly always translated in the negative. And I'm not trying to be argumentative but I see the verse as positive, especially with the overarching attitudes of secular humanism, scientific materialism and scientific reductionism that we see in the world today--all three of which say that the physical world is all there is.\nYou've probably heard the phrase \"God-shaped hole\" at some point in your life. It's referring to the fact that, because of sin, everyone has an internal void that only God can fill. When Solomon--the author of (most of) the Proverbs----talks about someone \"having separated himself\", he opens with the words through desire. If someone doesn't believe in God or angels or anything supernatural, then they're not going to have any desire for any of that stuff. They're fine with whatever they see and have no need for anything else spiritual or...higher. God can work with the person who's humble enough to admit they don't know everything. Jesus says \"seek and ye shall find\" (Luke 11:9). In the book of Jeremiah (29:13), God says \"and ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart\".\nIn the Proverbs verse, the man has separated himself. This means that he sees the inherent hypocrisy and futility of the system of the world and has distanced--separated--himself from its influence. This takes guts. Think of the lone student walking through his high school halls, the jeers of the jocks and the cool kids following behind him. He cares less and less for it everyday. He's the one that Jesus goes after. He's the one who will change the world. He's the one, as Solomon says, will seek and intermeddle with all wisdom. And that's where the other translations of the Bible view this as a negative thing (the Hebrew word translated \"intermeddleth\" connotes obstinacy, after all).\nIn the spiritual domain, things are black or white. We are not a self-possessed, self-contained entity. We either have Jesus and as John says, \"[have] life\" (1 John), or not. I, for one, am very guarded about where I get my \"wisdom\". As John says elsewhere in his letter, \"every spirit that does not confess Jesus (1 John 4:3 my translation) is not of God.\" Again, I don't want to be argumentative but I would like to make a case for receiving spiritual wisdom from God alone and not from any other source that leads away from Jesus.\nThe other wisdom, the practical, pragmatic and hard-won type stuff. The things that you read about in biographies and personal testimonies and hear about in songs, these bits of wisdom are highly valuable and worth listening to. If they help you serve God better and see things in a different light, then by all means intermeddle!\nChristianity, God, Jesus, lies, sanctification, truth, wisdom",

        "raw_content": "Already hailed as one of Rolling Stone magazine's Hot Performers of 2011, Swedish singer Lykke Li released her sophomore album \"Wounded Rhymes\" in February. The album hit the Billboard music charts at #36 and the Alternative Album charts at #7.\nThe album begins with pop/dance beats surrounding her vocals in \"Youth Knows No Pain\" and continues along those lines with the album's second single, \"I Follow Rivers.\" Lykke Li uses minimal instrumentation in \"Unrequited Love\" in order to stress the importance of the lyrics as the song carries a doo-wop flavored sound. The album's first single \"Get Some\" has a sinister beat of drums to reflect the dark lyrics of prostitution. \"Sadness Is A Blessing\" sounds like it came right from Phil Spector's \"Wall of Sound\" production. Lykke Li slows down the tempo with the 6-minute ballad \"I Know Places\" before returning with the grand sounding \"Jerome\". The album closes with the storytelling lyrics of \"Silent My Song.\"\nLykke Li is currently performing overseas, but will be returning to the U.S. in May.

        "raw_content": "I'm sitting with Max from Eve 6, who just got done playing Baltimore Soundstage. Max, how was your set?\nIt was a blast. Baltimore's always been a fun city for us, the Northeast in general. We have the cutest, little fan contingency here and they come to all the shows and a lot of familiar faces in the crowd tonight. It was good.\nYou mentioned it during your set but this is your first headlining tour in a while, as opposed to playing the festivals and more stylistic shows. How does it feel being back out on the road where people are specifically coming for you?\nIt feels really good. It's cool being able to dig out some songs that we haven't really played live that much and incorporate them into the set. You can only go so deep in a half hour set. [Referencing playing the festival circuits] There's something that happens, I feel, past the half hour mark where the interesting stuff happens and the unpredictable stuff at a rock show. It feels more natural and it's nice to give our fans what they want. We feel like, because we've been doing these festival tours a lot, the fans come up and say, \"Oh my God, we came for you guys and we only got to see six songs.\" So, to be able to give them a full set feels good.\nSome people might not realize that your newest record, Speak In Code, is actually four years old now and you were able to incorporate some of those songs into your set tonight. That album was your first album in nine years from your previous album, It's All In Your Head. How was it putting out that album? Even though it didn't come out six weeks ago, it's still the newest Eve 6 record.\nIt was fun. We got the team back together for that one. Sweet P, the guitar player, Jon Siebels came back into the band and Don Gilmore, who produced Horrorscope and the first Fly record, produced it so it was this kind of homecoming feeling and it's a good team. We work well together, sort of, the sound of Eve 6. Don is, kind of, that fourth member. That \"behind the curtain\" guy and is involved big time in the sound and arrangements and all of that stuff. Yeah, it was a fun record to make.\nAwesome. You touched on it a little bit and the casual fans might not know but your main fans will. Jon left the band for a little while but he did come back for the latest record. Was everything pretty cool with him leaving? Maybe musical differences, maybe he needed a break because you did continue to do some touring with some session players and other guitarists so I'd love for you to talk a little bit about that.\nYeah, he had started another band called Monsters Are Waiting and they started to do really well and they started to book a bunch of tours and he, sort of, felt a responsibility to see that through around the time that Tony (Fagenson, drums) and I were starting to think about playing out again. So, we had a good friend of ours, this guy Matt Bair, who's now Matthew Koma and who's become a successful artist in his own right in the electronic world, he filled in for a few years there and we started playing shows and it was fun. Matt's a great guitar player but there's that essence, chemistry thing that happens when Sweet P's a part of it, that's just special.\nWe mentioned before that there was a pretty large gap between your last two albums. While he was away, was there any thought of recording during that time? Or, did it not really seem the way?\nNo, it didn't really seem the way without the team, yeah. Once Jon came back in, things started to move and felt natural and we were like, \"This is a band again.\"\nHow much time do you have left in the tour?\nWe're about half way through this June run. I think we're home for a few days in the beginning of July and then we have a bunch of shows this summer. A lot of shows still in July, August, and September.\nHeadlining shows or a little mix with festivals?\nAll headlining shows.\nWith Speaking In Code having a little distance behind it since recording it, do you have plans for new music or are you just rolling with the current group of albums?\nThere definitely will be new music. There's not any concrete plans for that now. I do have some songs that are kicking around that could make good Eve 6 songs but that hasn't totally been discussed yet. But, there will be new music.\nFor the hardcore fans that know and/or the casual fans that don't, a fun question, where did the name come from?\nThe name came from an X-Files episode, to further entrench ourselves in the 90s. But yeah, there was an episode called, I think, the Eve episode and Eve 6 was a character in it and we thought it sounded cool.\nNice. Were you just forming at the time?\nWe were actually making record one. We were in the studio recording and we were called Eleventeen at the time. That actually came from the label, they wanted us to change the name because they thought the\"teen\" thing was to literal since we were teenagers. That wasn't even a thought on our minds, really. We weren't trying to make any statements, we just thought Eleventeen was a goofy sound that we liked. So, we were on the hunt a little bit and that just seemed appropriate.\nWhen it comes to your discography, everything you've been able to do and your attachment to your fans, I'd like to ask you straight up. Max, what does Eve 6 mean to you?\nIt's a good question. I mean, so much of me is \"in it.\" For me, it goes to the songs. What the songs mean to me, where I was when I wrote them. Ya know, they can take me back and sometimes they change along with me. It's hard to look, objectively, on it because I think of it as an extension of myself, I guess. It's close to my heart and I'm also my own harshest critic, all of those clich\u00e9's are true and it's also the bond I have with the guys. That, sort of, friendship that transcends odds, I guess. We're still here, able to do it, which is cool.\nYou touched on this during your set. I was standing there, watching it and really digging on something you were saying and I wanted you to reiterate it a little bit more for the fans that are going to get to read you. You were talking and introducing \"Here's To The Night\" about where you were when you wrote it and, kind of, the life it's taken on for itself. Talk about your mindset now when it comes to that song because it was and is very successful for you, people know about it and there's actually a 90s cover band called Here's To The Night. Talk again about what \"Here's To The Night\" has transcended to.\nYeah, well songs can start out meaning one thing and then mean something different to an audience or in the case of \"Here's To The Night\" I think it was a music video director who had had a vision for it and that kind of formed the way people think about the song and it became this prom theme. Which was amazing but also, sort of, absurd just because it's not what the song is about but that's one of the awesome things about music, subjectivity. So, on stage, my point with that pitch is the song has been re-purposed for us because the song's not a prom theme to me. To me, the song now is a \"love letter to our listener-ship\" is what I say on stage. The fans who allow us to keep doing this and playing loud rock and roll for a living so I make it a formal dedication.\nYou guys were quite young when your first album came out and \"Inside Out\" really broke for you. A young band and having a song on your very first record pop off and catapult you, what was it like for you?\nWe were joking about that the other day. What kind of perspective we must have had as a bunch of teenagers, who release their first record and haven't really done any touring and it climbs to number one. It was on of those, almost farcical, things but it was our reality. I don't know, it was incredible, it was terrifying, it was, sort of, all of the things that you'd imagine it to be but I wouldn't have it any other way, of course and definitely realize how infinitesimally lucky we were to be given that shot. Yeah, it was a hell of a ride, for sure.\nWith the music business being what it is and the \"business\" word being bigger then the \"music\" word which it shouldn't be but it just, kind of, is. When \"Inside Out\" became so successful did you get a lot of pressure leading into your second album?\nWe were really lucky with A&R (Artists and Repertoire.) We did that first record with Don Gilmore and we loved him and as far as the label was concerned they were thrilled with him because he just made a successful record for us. They, kind of, let us go in and do our thing again even though we did our thing, fairly differently, just production-wise and stuff with that second record but we got pretty well left alone, actually which was cool.\nMax, thank you so much for taking some time to take about some Eve 6 history and what you have going on with the tour.\nThank you, man. I appreciate it. Totally my pleasure and thanks for staying late.",

        "raw_content": "Wednesday 13 October 2010 at 20:00 The Queen's Hall\nMeet the English bestselling writer Philip Pullman in the Black Diamond. Pullman is world famous for his novels, among others His Dark Materials (Da. Det Gyldne Kompas). His large Danish audience has a unique chance to hear him tell the story of how the myth about the Son of God might have been created.\nWith his latest novel The Good Man Jesus and the Scoundrel Christ (Da. Det gode menneske Jesus og skurken Kristus) Pullman has made a surprising deconstruction of the myth about Jesus. He exposes the gap between what Jesus was preaching and what the church later on did with the greatest story of all times.\nThe premise of the book is that Mary gave birth to twins: Jesus and Christ. We hear the story about how the generous visionary, charismatic and radical Jesus through his short life transforms into the Biblical Messiah, Son of God.\nBut his twin brother is continually stalking him, as a shadow. The twin brother, simultaneously consentient and unsettled, insecure, reluctant and resistant, and through his meetings with a mysterious stranger, undertakes the role as the observant writer and cronicler.\nThe novel is one the most discussed books in England this spring; the critics were filled with enthusiasm, while religious fanatics threatened to assassinate him.\nPullman is one of England's most outspoken atheists.He does not disguise his critical views on the church as an institution, but he refers to himself as \u201cChurch of England Atheist\u201d. At the same time he acknowledges his Christian heritage: Bible stories are part of us, they are in our cultural genes.\nPullman was born in England in 1946, and grew up in Zimbabwe and Wales. He is a teacher by education but has been a full time writer the last twenty years. In 2005, he was the winner of the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award. Philip Pullman, the committee argues, is a master storyteller in a number of genres \u2013 from historical novels and fantasy to social realism and highly amusing parodies.\nWith inventiveness, linguistic brilliance and psychological insight he creates and explores his own worlds without losing focus on the real world.\nBesides the Astrid Lindgren Award he has won the Carnegie Medal, the Guardian Fiction Prize and was the first author of children\u2019s books to win the Whitbread Book of the Year.\nStandard DKK 110\nStudents DKK 60\nDiamond Club DKK 70\nAdvance sales at the Black Diamond's reception, at Billetlugen and Fona stores.\nThe event takes place in English.

        "title": "KISS Creatures of the Night Vinyl LP",
        "raw_content": "Creatures of the Night Vinyl LP\nU-B00IN69N38\nCreatures of the Night is the tenth studio album by Kiss. It is the band's last for Casablanca Records, the only label for which Kiss had recorded up to this point. The album was dedicated to the memory of Casablanca founder and early Kiss supporter Neil Bogart,[1] who had died of cancer during the recording sessions. It is also the band's last album recorded with Ace Frehley credited as an official member (until 1998's Psycho Circus), and its first album with Vinnie Vincent as the initially uncredited lead guitarist (Vincent would later be credited, but not featured pictorially on the cover, or 1985's reissue of the album).\nThe album represented a conscious effort by Kiss to return to the hard rock style that had helped them achieve commercial success with Destroyer and Love Gun. Their pop-oriented albums, Dynasty and Unmasked, had started a decline in popularity that reached rock bottom with 1981's Music from \"The Elder\". By 1982 Kiss knew it needed to deliver on their earlier 1980-81 promise of a heavy record, which they had failed to deliver.\nThe first key ingredient was songwriter/guitarist Vinnie Vincent, who was soon to replace Ace Frehley as the band's new lead guitarist after being introduced to the band by album co-writer, Adam Mitchell.[2] Frehley did not play at all on Creatures of the Night even though his face (for contractual and commercial reasons) was still featured on the album cover. On the tour, Vincent was introduced with his Egyptian Ankh makeup, designed in a hurry by Paul Stanley. In 1985, Kiss re-released the album in their non-makeup state with a cover featuring Gene Simmons, Stanley, Eric Carr and then-current guitarist Bruce Kulick even though Kulick did not play on the album and Vinnie Vincent had long since departed the band by 1985.\nBy 1982, Kiss's popularity in the US had plummeted due to changing music tastes and their near-abandonment of hard rock. 1979's Dynasty, while commercially successful, alienated many fans with the disco-flavored track \"I Was Made For Lovin' You\". 1980's Unmasked fell further into pop music and was Kiss's first album not to achieve platinum status since 1975's Dressed to Kill. The band did not even tour the US for Unmasked, and it was also soon faced with its first lineup change - founding member Peter Criss, who had not participated in any of the Unmasked recording sessions, officially left Kiss in 1980. He was replaced by Eric Carr.\nFan hopes were raised in late 1980 when Kiss announced that they were going to record their heaviest record yet. Instead, the band released Music from \"The Elder\" in late 1981, a concept album originally intended to complement a film called The Elder that was ultimately never filmed. The album was storyline-based and had ballads, a short orchestral piece, and different lyrical themes. The album failed to achieve gold status, and having cancelled their US Unmasked tour just a short time before, the band then called off the planned tour for Elder. Frehley soon left the band, angered over their turn towards commercial pop music and began to drift into alcoholism.\nKiss' label situation had changed as well. Casablanca Records founder Neil Bogart had sold the label to its distributor PolyGram, and went on to briefly form The Boardwalk Recording Company before being diagnosed with and later succumbing to cancer. Using a clause in their Casablanca contract that gave the band an option to leave the label if Bogart did, Kiss became free agents and signed a multi-million-dollar deal with Mercury Records. Mercury, a label also owned by PolyGram, reverted the band back to their \"old\" label, though in name only.\nEarly in the year, Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen was embroiled in creative disputes with frontman David Lee Roth and threatened to quit the band. He then offered his services to Kiss, but Gene Simmons quickly rejected the idea as it went against his philosophy of hiring relative unknowns in part to preserve their \"mystique\" and also because he did not want to have a strong personality that would challenge his and Paul Stanley's creative control of the band. Eddie Van Halen's brother, drummer Alex Van Halen, also convinced him to stay put. When recording sessions for Creatures of the Night began in July 1982, Kiss was essentially a trio. Frehley still made appearances with the band but had nearly ended his musical involvement with Kiss. Frehley looked completely out of sorts in promotional appearances for the album \u2014 in cases where the band was lip synching to recorded tracks, it is obvious that he did not know the material. It was only after the album was released and a short promotional tour of Europe was completed that Frehley officially left Kiss. The lead guitar replacement for Frehley for the Creatures tour in the US was Vinnie Vincent, who adopted the \"Ankh Warrior\" makeup.\nMusically, the progressive rock stylings of Music From \"The Elder\" and the pop of Dynasty and Unmasked were completely absent from Creatures of the Night, making it the heaviest album the group had made at that point.[3] \"I Still Love You\", the only ballad on Creatures, was still heavier and darker than any ballad Kiss had released in earlier years. Also contributing to the heavy sound was Carr's drumming style, which was more similar to John Bonham's style of drumming than to Criss', a jazz influenced drummer.[4] Some of the earliest pressings of the album mistakenly contained one full side of John Cougar's American Fool. Both Kiss and Cougar were under the umbrella of Mercury Records at the time. Today, those albums are highly sought after by Kiss collectors.[citation needed]\nCreatures of the Night is the first Kiss album to have all lead vocal duties handled by either Simmons or Stanley exclusively. All previous studio releases by the group contained at least one song with lead vocals by another band member. The band released a video for \"I Love It Loud\", which received moderate airplay on MTV. In it was a stage setup that featured Carr's drum kit as a giant metallic tank with an exploding turret. Flames and explosions were also in abundance, as Kiss attempted to produce a video that reflected the music on Creatures of the Night. Frehley did appear in the video as the rhythm guitarist, with Stanley shown playing the seven-note solo.\nThough Kiss had used \"ghost players\" on previous albums, most notably Bob Kulick and Dick Wagner, Vinnie Vincent handled most of the lead guitar as a session player and co-writer before being added as the fulltime replacement for Frehley though like Carr, as an employee and not a full member. Blues guitarist (and friend of album producer Michael James Jackson) Robben Ford, contributed two solos in what he described as one of his weirdest gigs.[5] Mr Mister guitarist Steve Farris (who was considered as a replacement for Frehley but was thought to not have \"the right look\") provided the solo and lead fills to the title track. Co-writer, Adam Mitchell, also contributed guitar work to the title track. Though often given credit for playing the solos on \"Keep Me Comin\" and \"Danger\", Bob Kulick admitted in a 2011 interview that none of the studio work he did on Creatures made it to the album. [6]\nThree different covers of the album exist: the 1982 original issue, the 1985 reissue (featuring Bruce Kulick, who was not a member of the band for Creatures of the Night, and the rest of the band without makeup), and the 1997 remastered version (same photo as the original, but with minor variations in the logo and lettering). On the 1985 non-make up release, the song \"Creatures of the Night\" is remixed, and \"Saint and Sinner\" and \"Killer\" are interchanged from side to side with each other. The bootlegged Vinnie Vincent cover has not been released on CD, but an extra rare Vincent cover has been called \"Hiding from Tomorrow\". There is also a bootlegged LP which shows up on eBay from time to time which states to be a Brazilian promo version with Vincent in makeup airbrushed over Frehley. Initially this copy fetched upwards of several thousands of dollars but it is nothing more than a common bootleg.[citation needed]\nCreatures of the Night was certified gold by the RIAA on May 9, 1994.[11] In Brazil it was certified gold in 1983 for sales of 100,000 copies.[12] Despite positive reviews, the album did not return the band to the commercial success they had held five years previous, and despite charting higher than The Elder (#45 compared to The Elder's #75), Creatures of the Night would not attain gold status until 1994.[11] The album would receive critical recognition years later with both Kerrang! and Guitar World magazines placing the album at #5 on their lists of best hard rock albums in 1982.[13][14] Carr noted in an interview that Creatures is his favorite Kiss record that he played on.[15]Simmons and Stanley, who have generally been dismissive of the band's post-1977 albums, considered Creatures to be one of their stronger efforts.\nThe album tour began shortly after Christmas and spanned the first five months of 1983, with the band's itinerary focused entirely on North America (three concerts were also played in Brazil) in an attempt to rebuild their diminished US fanbase. Unfortunately, the Creatures Tour was no more successful than the last North American tour in 1979 with numerous half-empty arenas and shows cancelled due to insufficient ticket sales.\n1. \"Creatures of the Night\" Paul Stanley, Adam Mitchell Stanley 4:02\n2. \"Saint and Sinner\" Gene Simmons, Mikel Japp Simmons 4:50\n3. \"Keep Me Comin'\" Stanley, Mitchell Stanley 3:55\n4. \"Rock and Roll Hell\" Simmons, Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance Simmons 4:11\n5. \"Danger\" Stanley, Mitchell Stanley 3:54\n6. \"I Love It Loud\" Simmons, Vinnie Vincent Simmons 4:15\n8. \"Killer\" Simmons, Vincent Simmons 3:19\n9. \"War Machine\" Simmons, Adams, Vallance Simmons 4:14\nNote: On the 1985 re-release of the album track 2 and 8 were switched.

        "raw_content": "Concerns on the Establishment of an Independent Insurance Authority\nSummary of the Hon Chan Kin-por\u2019s remarks at the Panel on Financial Affairs (July 19th, 2010) regarding the proposal on the establishment of the Independent IA (IIA):\nIn principle, I support the proposal on the establishment of the independent IA as it will result in better regulated insurance companies and the better protection of the policyholders . However, there remains the following concerns:\n1) The self-regulation of insurance intermediaries by the industry has been successfully implemented for years . The current structure of having three self-regulatory organizations is not ideal as there may be difference benchmarks and pace in handling complains. Therefore, I support the integration of the three self-regulatory organizations. However, whether the intermediaries should be regulated by the future IIA or continue to be self-regulated should be open for discussion. It would be worthwhile to consider if the industry can come up with proposals that are more efficient as well as able to address the concern of potential conflicts of interest . Even if the final decision after consultation is for IIA to take over the regulation of intermediaries, there should be adequate participation by the representatives of the industry on the regulation structure.\n2) The future IIA should ensure that the industry is not over-regulated in order to maintain the status of Hong Kong as an international financial center and to ensure the development sustainability of the insurance industry . Furthermore, the IIA proposal is not likely to be finalize until 2012 to 2013 but the current IA is already understaffed. I hope the Government will increase the HR resources of the current IA to ensure that the operations during the transitional period are not interrupted.\n3) Regarding the proposed new fee structures, I believe there should be a cap on the 0.1% levy on the insurance premiums. In fact, without a cap on the levy amount per policy, a single premium Life policy of HK$10 million would end up paying a levy of HK$10,000 which is obviously too much.\nThis entry was posted in Speech on Motion and tagged Independent IA, Insurance on 19/07/2010",

        "raw_content": "So we all know by now about my addictive music personality, right? Right.\nIt's beyond time for me to share with you all my latest obsession. Yes, obsession. I've been listening to this album for the last three weeks straight and I'm still not tired of it. It's THAT GOOD. I bought the album after a performance on American Idol a few weeks ago. But, before I tell you who it is, let me tell you about the relationship I've had with this band BEFORE buying the CD.\nA few years ago there was a T.V. show called The Great American Band. Johnny Rzenick (sp?) from the Goo Goo Dolls was a judge, and because I seriously *heart* him, the hubs and I decided to check it out. It was similar to American Idol, but with live bands trying out for a spot on the show. Am I the only one who watched this???? Please if anyone out there saw it, comment me so I don't feel alone. To my knowledge, it only last one season. But that was an AWESOME season. Granted, a few horrible bands, but one super stellar one I could NEVER take my eyes off of. Who were they? The Clark Brothers. Christian rock/folk/country sounding guys who were the sons of a preacher. The intensity with which the lead singer performs is truly amazing. He draws you in no matter what he sings. They ended up winning the competition and for months on end, I searched Itunes for their record, which I was sure would be coming out soon. No. Such. Luck.\nHubs and I looked everywhere and found nothing. After a year or so, we kind of forgot about it. Then, a few weeks ago, we watch American Idol and low and behold, THERE THEY ARE! But under a different name. They are now called, are you ready for it????\nSons of Sylvia!\nWe recognized them the moment they hit the stage. And true to form, they didn't disappoint. I literally downloaded the album from Itunes THAT NIGHT in anticipation. The entire thing is just awesome. Clearly I am biased, but let me tell you, it's good stuff. Even listening to the songs, you get the emotion behind the vocals and find yourself drawn in. Is it any surprise that one of these songs could be the theme song for my latest WIP? Of course not! (Was going to share it but couldn't find it anywhere!!!!)\nBut I did find a few things to share. Check them out. And go buy the album...NOW! It's hard not to feel inspired by the passion these guys have.\nHere they are on American Idol:\nOne of my favorites from the album and trust me it's hard to choose:\nHope you enjoy this band as much as I do and that they inspire you to rise above \"just okay\" and towards \"on fire!\"\nChristine Danek May 19, 2010 at 7:14 AM\nThanks for the info on these interesting bands. I love music too so I'm always looking for new stuff to listen too. Thanks!\nI love learning new things, especially when it comes to music since I'm not a big listener of music!!! I look forward to researching more of them! Looks like I have something new to listen too at work!\nMusic is so inspiring, with such a beautiful way of reaching our hearts. I'm a big music fan, too, particularly live music where the artists bring so much creativity to the stage with their art.\nTalli Roland May 19, 2010 at 10:07 AM\nI'm not sure I can get past the name (Sons of Sylvia? What?) but if I can, I'll check them out! Thanks!\nJames Garcia Jr May 19, 2010 at 12:45 PM\nThanks for the information. I, too, am always on the lookout for new music. I never wanted to be one of those that said music died with Buddy Holly or John Bonham or Kurt Cobain. Right now I'm listening to a lot of Ronnie James Dio since he just passed away; I fell in love with Sara Bareilles this year; and I am waiting for the new My Chemical Romance and Maroon 5 cd's. Thanks again.\nAwesome! Thanks for sharing them with us, Kristi. Music is one of those universals that we can all benefit from! :-)\nI first heard this band one night when I was working on my book and the wife was watching a Carrie Underwood special on TV. Well, the Sons of Sylvia sang a song with Carrie, and one of their own. It made so much of an impression that I wrote down their name while I was writing. Now months later, I see their name when I'm skimming iTunes for new releases. I grabbed up the CD and have been listening to it ever since. GREAT STUFF!!\nYou know what they say,great minds.......\nAw, I'm so happy you found them. I love music, it truly is inspiring. :)\nMissV May 19, 2010 at 7:30 PM\nI'm not very musically inclined, but I do know the excitement of falling in love with a new group/author/artist/whatever.\nSharG May 19, 2010 at 8:01 PM\nI too watched Next Great American Band (you weren't alone!) and fell in love with The Clark Brothers. Even my husband, a die hard rocker, thought they were the best ever! (Back then they were considered \"country\".)\nAfter the show I searched for info on them and finally came across their myspace page where I became friends with another girl who was just as crazy about them as I was. Soon, we started a myspace fan page for them which has grown to twitter and fb and youtube and individual fan pages for each guy and sites in different states and..... lol\nIt's been so wonderful to see people discover this \"new\" band (they've all been playing since they were about 5 years old!). It was especially satisfying to see them in concert and to meet them. Super nice guys.\nCheck out their official website sonsofsyliva.com\nHey Talli -\nTheir name - Sons of Sylvia - is to honor their mom who has had 11 children. They figured it sounded better than using their dad's name - Sons of Frederick! lol\nThx for sharing, havn't heard about them... glad you enjoy it.\nI've never heard of them before. I like their sound. Thanks for the introduction.\nBeHopeful May 19, 2010 at 10:15 PM\nMy husband and I watched them on NGAB too and had such fun rooting for them and voting for them every week and then have been watching and waiting for their new music to come out...always hoping they weren't being tainted by a record company all this time (no offense, but they are real artists who shouldn't be changed). We were so delighted that the first release turned out to be all THEM, not tainted in the least. I always wondered why Fox never re-ran the series - maybe a Friday night leading up to Christmas wasn't the greatest for original ratings, but they could re-run on the dreaded Fox Reality channel now and promote the truly NEXT GREAT AMERICAN BAND! it's sure better than all the other reality re-runs on tv. The BEST thing that happened to music in decades was that show because it produced Sons of Sylvia, and the album is better than I ever could have anticipated. I couldn't be happier, it's not just a great year for SOS, it's a great year for us fans! No you weren't alone NGAB was awesome!\nChristine - You're SO welcome...I love finding new music and sharing what I love! These guys are great!\nJen - Me too!!! Maybe I should ask for suggestions so we can all share???\nJoanne - Couldn't agree more. These guys bring the emotion and creativity back to music that it's been lacking in the more commercial artists. Very moving.\nTalli - Definitely check them out and so glad SharG explained to me the meaning behind it...I had no idea! :-)\nJames - Maybe I need some suggestions from you because I too LOVE Sarah Bareilles, My Chemical Romance, and Maroon 5....what else do you have? LOL. I need something new. ;-)\nShannon - It is and I love sharing my passion for music! It inspires my writing frequently!\nDL - why am I not surprised that you already knew about these guys??? You're right...great minds...\nKim - You know it!!! I love finding new music and artists!\nMissV - I know what you mean...we are all moved by different things. The new authors get me pumped up too...I'm surrently in love with Suzanne Collins. LOL.\nSharG - SO glad I'm not alone in watching that show...it was GREAT and these boys were definitely the stand outs. How cool you got to meet them...part of their star appeal for me has always been how sincere and down to earth they seem...it's rare these days. Thanks for all of the info!\nJeff - Anytime! :-)\nEva - I think we need to swap favorite artists! :-)\nBeHopeful - first of all...love your screen name! Secondly...so glad to have three of us that watched the show...honestly thought I was alone! And couldn't agree more with you on everything. This band, their attitude, their music...it's all very refreshing and hard NOT to love.\nGlad you appreciate the screen name, years ago I found out anything can change in a minute...if this minute is the worst, there's a pretty good chance the next minute, hour, day will be significantly better-you just gotta hang on.\nIf this minute is rotten - listen to Sons of Sylvia and you're certain to feel better!\nDon't know if you've heard the bonus tracks, but there are 3 - one on Amazon, one on itunes, one on Napster - wherever you downloaded the album, you would have gotten the bonus from that site, the other two you can buy as singles.\nThey are such an inspiration, I'm always glad when I see them recommended by someone!\nGreat write up on Sons of Sylvia! I, too...along with you and 2 million others, watched the guys win the title of NEXT GREAT AMERICAN BAND. I fell in love with them then, and I love 'em even more now! Love 'em so much, a good part of my day is spent running several fan site's for them, along with SharG and a few other diehard SOS fans...We've been waiting for them to get noticed for over two years now and we couldn't be happier for them and more proud of the new music they've created. They have completely blown us away with their crazy talent! And you're right, they are sincere and down to earth...some of the greatest guys you'll ever meet! Follow us @SonsofSylviaFan on twitter!\nI'm skimming iTunes for new releases. I grabbed up the CD and have been listening to it ever since. GREAT STUFF!!\nDawn Simon May 23, 2010 at 11:57 PM\nThanks for sharing. I get addicted to songs/bands too. :)\nYou should come by my blog. *winks* Maybe you won something. *winks again* Like a competition. Just sayin'.",

He was sentenced to 80 years in prison on Thursday.\nHe was sentenced to 80 years for three counts and 2 years for 2 counts. He will serve them concurrently.\nHe also faces a $10,000 fine.\nPatricio Medina was found guilty of relating to the injuries of a 1-month-old: one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child, two counts of injury to a child and two counts endangering a child.\nAccording to the arrest affidavit, in March 2014, investigators were told by medical staff the 1-month-old baby had a skeletal survey that found bilateral rib fractures, 24 broken ribs and different stages of healing, left femur metaphyseal corner fracture, which is associated with non-accidental trauma and eye change that is consistent with shaking baby.\nMedina admitted to using methamphetamines in the presence of the baby. He also tested positive for the drugs through a drug test with CPS.\nMedina admitted to squeezing the baby in his hands, causing the baby's ribs to break, shaking the baby and causing injury to her when he was upset with the baby's mother.\nDuring a search of the home, two glass pipes were found, the affidavit said.\nA warrant was then issued for his arrest in August 2015.\nAccording to arrest records, Medina was booked into jail in April 2017.\nEarlier this year, Medina was indicted on five counts relating to the injuries of the baby.\nAssistant District Attorney Gabrielle Massey released a statement after sentencing:\nThe jury\u2019s verdict ensures that this toddler and all children will be safe from this predator for the next 80 years. Thanks to the work of CPS and Waco PD Crimes Against Children, the horrific first five weeks of this child\u2019s life will not prevent her from having a safe and happy future.",

Sudalaiyandi, P. Velmurugan, Advocates. For the Respondents: R1, R2 & R4, N. Mala, Additional Government Pleader, [Puducherry], R3, R. Sreedhar, Advocate.\n(Prayer: Writ Petition filed under Article 226 Constitution of India to issue a Writ of Certiorarified Mandamus calling for the records comprised in No.375/TCP/Board /JTP/(Dev.)/2017/11872 dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent, quash the same and consequently direct the Respondents 1 and 2 to demolish the deviated building constructed by the 3rd Respondent at Door No.91, Montorsier Street, Puducherry (at T.S.No.169, R.S.No.239 Pt. Old No.55, Ward-D, Block No.13).)\n2. Summation of Writ Facts :\n2.1 The Writ Petitioner had purchased the property measuring an extent of 2000 Sq.Ft at Door No.93, Montorsier Street, Puducherry by means of a registered Sale Deed dated 18.06.1990 executed by her Mother-in-Law, Jayamary Mariadoss [Mother-in-Law]. She and her family members are in absolute possession and enjoyment of the property for more than 100 years.\n2.2. After purchasing the property, the Petitioner had demolished the existing tiled house in the property and constructed a single storied building after securing necessary permission from the Competent Authority. The 3rd Respondent purchased the House and Land situated on the Eastern Side of Petitioner\u2019s property, i.e., Door No.91, Montorsier Street, Puducherry [at T.S.No.169, R.S.No.239 pt. Old No.55, Ward-D, Block No.13] . Indeed, the 3rd Respondent / Builder had demolished an existing House and had applied for planning permission for construction of a new Building. The 3rd Respondent at the time of obtaining planning permission, included a portion of Petitioner\u2019s property in the plan and accordingly, the 3rd Respondent obtained a planning permission on 12.05.2010 with conditions, as per Byelaw 13(4) of the Puducherry Building Byelaw Zoning Regulations, 1972.\n2.3. Apart from the above, the Power of Attorney of the Petitioner along with the Petitioner approached the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry to stop an illegal construction of the 3rd Respondent and made a request to supply the details of planning permission. The 2nd Respondent, on 24.05.2011, informed that under the proceedings dated 12.05.2010, approval was granted to the 3rd Respondent for construction of four storied residential flats building and it consists of seven dwelling flats. In the Planning Permission, one of the conditions imposed was that the \u2018Parking Area\u2019, as mentioned in the \u2018Approval Plan\u2019 ought not to be deviated for any purpose.\n2.4. The 2nd Respondent on 15.04.2011 had inspected the premises and found out that there was deviation in the said construction and as such, the 3rd Respondent was directed to demolish the unauthorised deviated construction strictly within one month from the date of issuance of notice and restore the building, as per the approved plan. But the 3rd Respondent proceeded with the construction without fulfilling the requirement of Notice. Pursuant to the Notice dated 15.04.2011, the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry had not taken any further action.\n2.5. The Petitioner, made an application on 20.12.2012 and also made another application under the \u2018Right to Information Act\u2019 for furnishing a copy of the plan and on 25.01.2012, the Public Information Officer of the 2nd Respondent / the Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry furnished the building plan, sketch and proceedings of the \u2018Approval Copy\u2019. The plan shows 261 Sq.Mtr., as plot area, 84.67 Sq.Mtr., as ground floor area, 73.74 Sq.Mtr, as 1st Floor area and 73.Sq.Mtr., as 2nd and 3rd Floors area each. The plan shows the side set back and other places vacant for \u2018Common Usage\u2019. The 3rd Respondent without adhering to the approved planning permission issued by the 2nd Respondent had constructed the flats in the total plot area without leaving any place in common usage and side setback. The walls of the construction were constructed in Petitioner\u2019s building wall, as well as eastern side wall and immediately a written complaint was lodged by the Petitioner before the 2nd Respondent for the violation of the aforesaid construction. The 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority had not taken any action. Since the Petitioner\u2019s Power of Attorney and herself approached the 2nd Respondent to take necessary action and to stop the deviated construction put up by the 3rd Respondent, the Written complaint was once again made on 30.09.2013 before the 2nd Respondent for taking necessary action. However, the 2nd Respondent is not taking any action against the 3rd Respondent.\n2.6. Further, the 3rd Respondent had totally deviated the plot area, as per the planning permission and that the Authority granted permission for the ground floor only 911 Sq.Ft., = 84.67 Sq.Mtrs, but the 3rd Respondent had constructed 1300 Sq.Ft., [including the setback and OTS] after leaving space for car parking, as such, there is a deviation of 389 Sq.Ft.,. In terms of the planning permission, the area granted to First, Second and Third floors is 73.74 Sq.Mtrs = 793 Sq.Ft., But, the 3rd Respondent had constructed First, Second and Third Floors in entire plot area respectively, after leaving small space for OTS, resultantly, there is a deviation of 1868 sq.ft., on each floor. The 3rd Respondent was granted permission for construction of 3290 Sq.Ft., in all floors. There is a total deviation of 5993 Sq.ft., in the building constructed by the 3rd Respondent. The 3rd Respondent had constructed the residential flats deviating more than two times of approved plan and the violation is contrary to the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969, Rules and Regulations.\n2.7. Earlier, the Petitioner filed W.P.No.30201 of 2013 before this Court praying for passing of an order by this Court in demolishing the deviated building constructed by the 3rd Respondent and this Court on 08.11.2013 was pleased to direct the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry to pass an appropriate order based on the representation of the Petitioner dated 30.09.2013 on merits and in accordance with Law, after hearing the Petitioner as well as the 3rd Respondent, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of copy of the order.\n2.8. The 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry had conducted an enquiry and inspected the building. In the interregnum, the 3rd Respondent admitted the deviation and applied for revised planning permission before the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority. The 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary,Puducherry Planning Authority had passed a detailed order on 29.11.2013, whereby the planning permission submitted by the 3rd Respondent was rejected and further, pointed out that there were six deficiencies in constructed building and the same could not be considered. The 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority in the order dated 29.11.2013 had specifically directed the 3rd Respondent to comply with the earlier notice and demolished the deviated construction strictly within one month from the date of the said notice, failing which, further action would be taken against the 3rd Respondent, as per provisions of the Act. The 2nd Respondent on 06.01.2014 onceagain had directed the 3rd Respondent to demolish the deviated construction immediately.\n2.9. The 3rd Respondent filed an Appeal before the 1st Respondent on 12.12.2013 as against the demolition order issued by the 2nd Respondent and the Appeal was numbered as Rt.No.6100. The 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Town and Country Planning Department, Government of Puducherry passed an order on 23.12.2013 by stating that during inspection, it was found out that four storied residential flats building was constructed deviating from the approved plan and further, directed the 3rd Respondent to \u2018Stop Work\u2019 and maintain \u2018Status Quo\u2019 of the building and also that, no further construction should be carried out.\n2.10. The Petitioner filed W.P.No.15079 of 2014 before this Court, since the Appeal was not disposed of by the 1st Respondent and on 12.06.2014, this Court directed the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Town and Country Planning Department, Government of Puducherry to dispose of the Appeal filed by the 3rd Respondent within a stipulated time in accordance with Law. In fact, the 1st Respondent, on 19.09.2014, had disposed of the Appeal preferred by the 3rd Respondent with the following observations :\n\u201cSince the coverage and FAR provided are in excess of the permissible limit of 75% and 180, the Board decided to dispose the appeal with a direction to Puducherry Planning Authority to initiate action to seal the topmost two floors [second and third floor] and sealing of staircase and lift which provide access to the third and fourth floor.\nTherefore, it is requested to comply with the direction of the TCP Board. Case files are returned herewith.\u201d\n2.11. Further, the 1st Respondent had directed the 2nd Respondent to seal the premises. However, the 2nd Respondent had not complied with the direction of the 1st Respondent and that the 2nd Respondent had rejected the revised planning Permission submitted by the 3rd Respondent and the Appeal was also rejected by the 1st Respondent. The 2nd Respondent had not taken any further action and not complied with his own order as well as the order passed by the 1st Respondent. The Petitioner filed W.P.No.31266 of 2014 before this Court praying for passing of an order in directing the 2nd Respondent to demolish the deviated building constructed by the 3rd Respondent at Door No.91, Montorsier Street, Puducherry (at T.S.No.169, R.S.No.239 Pt. Old No.55, Ward D, Block No.13) in pursuance to the notice of the 2nd Respondent dated 15.04.2011, 29.11.2013 and 06.01.2014.\n2.12. Later, the 3rd Respondent filed W.P.No.2108 of 2015 assailing the order passed by the 1st Respondent to remove the lock and seal in respect of his building. This Court by a Common Order dated 03.03.2015 had directed the 1st and 2nd Respondents to take a pragmatic, purposeful, meaningful and result oriented consequent follow up action in an effective, efficacious and expeditious fashion within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order. Pursuant to the common order dated 03.03.2015, the 2nd Respondent / Member Sec\nretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry sealed the premises of the 3rd Respondent on 27.03.2015, which was communicated by the 2nd Respondent to the Petitioner through letter dated 16.04.2015. Thereafter, the 2nd Respondent had not taken any consequential action for demolition of the deviated building, as per the provisions of the Act.\n2.13. The Petitioner filed W.P.No.19714 of 2015 before this Court seeking necessary direction being issued to the Respondents therein to demolish the deviated building pursuant to the order passed by this Court in W.P.No.31266 of 2014 dated 03.03.2015, but the Writ Petition was dismissed on the ground that the Authority will take appropriate action, as per Law. Moreover, the 2nd Respondent had informed the Petitioner\u2019s husband that the seal of the flat in top most two floors were in tact and not disturbed. Later, the Respondents 1 and 2 have not taken any further action in respect of demolishing \u2018Deviated building\u2019 and the Respondents 1 and 2 maintained silence for taking action against the building.\n2.14. The Petitioner filed O.S.No.39 of 2011, which was decreed by the Learned Sub Judge, Puducherry and further that, the Sub Court had directed the eviction of the 3rd Respondent [Defendant] from the suit schedule property and also a permanent injunction was granted restraining the 3rd Respondent from putting up further construction in \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property. The subject matter of the suit in \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property is the portion of the subject matter in the Writ Petition. The 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Town and Country Planning Department of Puducherry, after receiving the Judgment and Decree Copy in O.S.No.39 of 2011 informed the Petitioner that the subject matter of the property in the Writ Petition constructed by the 3rd Respondent was regularised and further, directed the 2nd Respondent that approval may be issued to the Four Storied Flat Building.\n2.15. The Petitioner filed a Petition under Right to Information Act, 2005 and after receipt of copy of the Order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent [Obtained one month later] is assailing the said order by filing the present Writ Petition.\n3. Contents of Counter of Respondent Nos. 1 and 2:\n3.1. The Petitioner, filed C.P.No.1049 of 2015 before this Court against the then Principal Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Town and Country Planning Board and that the Contempt Petition was closed on 02.07.2015, since the Counter Affidavit was filed by the Respondents that they complied with the Order of the High Court dated 03.03.2015 in W.P.No.31266 of 2014.\n3.2. The Petitioner [Applicant] through her Advocate made a request to the Principal Secretary to Town and Country Planning Board and the Principal Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority on 10.04.2015 to comply with the order dated 03.03.2015 passed in W.P.No.31266 of 2014 and since the Puducherry Planning Authority had already de-sealed two entrance gates of the premises on 27.03.2015, sealed topmost two floors [Second and Third Floors] and also Blocked the access to staircase and also lift rooms, which provide access to the same, as per the decision of the Town and Country Planning Board, Puducherry, the matter was again placed before its meeting., wherein the Board had deferred the case.\n3.3. One Francis Arsene Jocelyn [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent] / Appellant submitted a representation dated 15.12.2015 to the Town and Country Planning Board stating that due to blocking of the access to staircase and lift room, which provide access to the third and fourth floors, she was not able to get water from the over head tank and requested to consider the case sympathetically and that the case was placed in the meeting of the Town and Country Planning Board that took place on 16.02.2016. Since the tenure of Town and Country Planning Board got expired on 04.03.2016, the same was reconstituted on 10.04.2017 and that the First Meeting of the Reconstituted Town and Country Planning Board took place on 17.08.2017 and it was decided as under:\u2018The Board after detailed deliberations decided to allow the appeal. Puducherry Planning Authority may issue approval for the four Storeyed Residential Flats building [Executed] and after compounding the offence of excess Coverage / FAR and unauthorised construction / deviation as per the Puducherry Building Bye-Laws and Zoning Regulations, 2012. Puducherry Planning Authority shall obtain NOC from Fire Service Department. Compounding shall be imposed for deficit parking area. After collecting the required compounding charts, the Puducherry Planning Authority shall remove all sealings done on 27.03.2015, thereafter approval may be issued to the four storeyed residential flats building.\u2019\nThe decision of the Planning Board was communicated to the said Jocelyn through Communication dated 25.10.2017 and the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary of Puducherry Planning Authority for further action. 3.4. The representation of A.Jesudoss dated 27.10.2017 was submitted to the Town and Country Planning Board together with the copy of the Judgment of the Principal Sub Judge, Puducherry dated 04.09.2017 and the same was forwarded to the 2nd Respondent / the Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry on 03.11.2017. The 2nd Respondent\u2019s Learned Counsel, in respect of the processing of the application for issue of building approval, had rendered his opinion that the proposal may be considered based on the direction of the Town and Country Planning Board and later, after process, the Appellant was directed to remit the necessary compounding charges for violation of excess F.A.R. for excess construction on 20.11.2017 and that the same was remitted by the Appellant on 21.11.2017. Further, as per the decision of the Town and Country Planning Board, the 2nd Respondent / Puducherry Planning Authority removed all the sealings on 21.11.2017 and the building plan approval for construction of four storied residential flats building was issued in the name of Francis Arsene Jocelyn, self and Power Agent of Francis Marie Philomen Veronique Shanguina / 3rd Respondent.\n3.5. The decision of the Board to seal the Third and Fourth floors was revised and it was decided to de-seal the same and compound the excess coverage / FAR. Moreover, as per Section 70 of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, the 1st Respondent / Town and Country Planning Board, passed an order compounding the offence punishable under this Act, therefore, the present Writ Petition is filed by the Writ Petitioner.\n3.6. Section 38 of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 speaks of \u2018Filing of an Appeal\u2019 by any Applicant aggrieved by an order passed under Section 7 before the Board within one month of the communication of the said order to him.\n3.7. Section 43 of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 speaks of \u2018Penalty for Unauthorised Development or for use otherwise than in conformity with the Development Plan\u2019.\n3.8. Section 44 of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 pertains to \u2018Power Requirement to Removal of Unauthorised Developments\u2019 by the Planning Authority. In fact, Section 44(5) of the Act, 1969 enjoins that \u2018after considering the aforesaid report [report submitted to the Board] and hearing the Appellant, the Board may dismiss the appeal or accept the appeal by quashing the order, as it may think fit. Section 70 of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 relates to \u2018Compounding of Offence\u2019.\n4. Gist of 3rd Respondent\u2019s Counter :\n4.1. The decision of the 1st Respondent / Town and Country Planning Board dated 17.08.2017 was communicated to the 3rd Respondent, as per proceedings dated 25.10.2017 and also to the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, Puducherry for further action. The 3rd Respondent had duly remitted the compounding charges on 21.11.2017 and as per the decision of the 1st Respondent / Town and Country Planning Board, the Government of Puducherry, the 2nd Respondent / Puducherry Planning Authority removed all the sealings on 21.11.2017 and that the \u2018Building Plan Approval\u2019 for construction of four storied residential flats building was issued [Vide Permit No.PPA/1454/2554/2 [SB-Puducherry) / 13-17 dated 21.11.2017].\n4.2. The Petitioner without any valid basis has chosen to assail the validity of the Order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent and sought a direction to demolish the building constructed by the 3rd Respondent.\n5. Petitioner\u2019s Contentions:\n5.1. It is represented on behalf of the Petitioner that no enquiry was conducted by hearing the Petitioner prior to the passing of the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017.\n5.2. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner submits that the Respondents 1 and 2 have no power to regularise an unauthorised construction put up by the 3rd Respondent and therefore, the Impugned order of the 1st Respondent / Town and Country Planning Board, Town and Country Planning Department, Government of Puducherry is an illegal one.\n5.3. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner contends that Section 70 of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 \u2018Compounding of Offence\u2019 is not applicable to the present case.\n5.4. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner projects an argument that under the Puducherry Bye-law and Zoning Regulations, 2012, the Appellate Authority, has power to entertain an Appeal and in the instant case, the Appellate Authority had already rejected the Appeal filed by the 3rd Respondent on 19.09.2014 and that the said Authority has no power to entertain the Appeal for the second time, for the very same subject matter and therefore, the Impugned order dated 25.10.2017 passed by the 1st Respondent is without jurisdiction.\n6. Petitioner\u2019s Citations:\n6.1. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner cites the decision of this Court between Kondumuri Ganikamma V. Member Secretary, Yanam Planning Authority, Mini Civil Station, Yanam and Another reported in [2014] 2 MLJ 385 at Special Page 387 wherein at Paragraph Nos.14 to 17, it is observed as under:\n\u201814. The petitioner has no respect to the building regulations. The local planning authority issued a stop work notice on 17 August 2010. It was only thereafter, the demolition order was passed.\n15. It was represented across the Bar that there is a mushroom growth of illegal constructions in the Union Territory of Puducherry, especially in Puducherry Region. The builders without proper planning permit and without even providing parking area. As a result, the roads are now flooded with vehicles parked in an disorderly manner, making it difficult even for pedestrians to move freely. Those who failed to obtain planning permits from the Planning Authority, managed to obtain it by filing appeals.\n16. The development plans are prepared for the orderly development of the city / towns. The illegal constructions in violation of the Zoning Regulations would be a threat to the orderly development of the city. It would also cause environmental problems.\n17. The Government and Board have no power under the Act to regularize illegal construction. The Government and the Board have to act within the four corners of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act. In case the authorities have exempted illegal buildings from the provisions of the Act and building bye-laws or regularized the illegal constructions, such actions are justiciable. The illegal constructions are a source of danger to the society and public at large. Therefore, it is open even to the neighbours and public to challenge such illegal constructions and regularization, which are not permitted by law.\u2019\n6.2. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner relies on the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court between Royal Paradise Hotel (P) Ltd., V. State of Haryana and Others reported in (2006) 7 SCC 597 at Special Pages 601 and 602 wherein at Paragraph Nos.7 and 8, it is observed as under:\n\u20187. It is clear from the statement of the synopsis and list of dates furnished by the appellant itself, that on 4.2.1998, Mr. Chawla, who put up the construction before it was sold to the appellant received a notice under Section 12 of the Act informing him of contravention of Section 3 or Section 6 and of violation of Section 7(1) and Section 10 of the Act and directing him to stop further construction. When it was found that the appellant was defying the direction to stop, an order was passed on 26.2.1998 under sub-Section (2) of Section 12 of the Act directing him to remove the unauthorized construction and to bring the site in conformity with the relevant provisions of the Act on finding that there was clear violation of Section 7 and Section 10 of the Act. On 16.3.1999, another notice was issued to Mr. Chawla mentioning therein that there is a contravention of Section 7(1) or Section 10 of the Act and directing removal of the unauthorized construction. The copies of the original notices are produced by the respondents along with the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondent Nos.1 to 3. Though the copies of such notices have been produced by the appellant also, we find that there are some omissions in the copies produced on behalf of the appellant. Whatever it be, the fact remains that the construction was made in the teeth of the notices and the directions to stop the unauthorized construction. Thus, the predecessor of the appellant put up the offending construction in a controlled area in defiance of the provisions of law preventing such a construction and in spite of notices and orders to stop the construction activity. The constructions put up are thus illegal and unauthorized and put up in defiance of law. The appellant is only an assignee from the person who put up such a construction and his present attempt is to defeat the statute and the statutory scheme of protecting the sides of highways in the interest of general public and moving traffic on such highways. Therefore, this is a fit case for refusal of interference by this Court against the decision declining the regularization sought for by the appellant. Such violations cannot be compounded and the prayer of the appellant was rightly rejected by the authorities and the High Court was correct in dismissing the Writ Petition filed by the appellant. It is time that the message goes aboard that those who defy the law would not be permitted to reap the benefit of their defiance of law and it is the duty of High Courts to ensure that such defiers of law are not rewarded. The High Court was therefore fully justified in refusing to interfere in the matter. The High Court was rightly conscious of its duty to ensure that violators of law do not get away with it.\n8. We also find no merit in the argument that regularization of the acts of violation of the provisions of the Act ought to have been permitted. No authority administering municipal laws and other laws like the Act involved here, can encourage such violations. Even otherwise, compounding is not to be done when the violations are deliberate, designed, reckless or motivated. Marginal or insignificant accidental violations unconsciously made after trying to comply with all the requirements of the law can alone qualify for regularization which is not the rule, but a rare exception. The authorities and the High Court were hence right in refusing the request of the appellant\u2019.\n6.3. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner seeks in aid of the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court between Shanti Sports Club and Another V. Union of India and Others reported in (2009) 15 Supreme Court Case at page 705 at Special Page 742 at Paragraph Nos.73 to 75, it is observed as follows:\n73. Before concluding, we consider it necessary to enter a caveat. In all developed countries, great emphasis has been laid on the planned development of cities and urban areas. The object of planned development has been achieved by rigorous enforcement of master plans prepared after careful study of complex issues, scientific research and rationalisation of laws. The people of those countries have greatly contributed to the concept of planned development of cities by strictly adhering to the planning laws, the master plan etc. They respect the laws enacted by the legislature for regulating planned development of the cities and seldom there is a complaint of violation of master plan etc. in the construction of buildings, residential, institutional or commercial. In contrast, scenario in the developing countries like ours is substantially different. Though, the competent legislatures have, from time to time, enacted laws for ensuring planned development of the cities and urban areas, enforcement thereof has been extremely poor and the people have violated the master plans, zoning plans and building regulations and bye-laws with impunity.\n74. In last four decades, almost all cities, big or small, have seen unplanned growth. In the 21st century, the menace of illegal and unauthorized constructions and encroachments has acquired monstrous proportions and everyone has been paying heavy price for the same. Economically affluent people and those having support of the political and executive apparatus of the State have constructed buildings, commercial complexes, multiplexes, malls etc. in blatant violation of the municipal and town planning laws, master plans, zonal development plans and even the sanctioned building plans. In most of the cases of illegal or unauthorized constructions, the officers of the municipal and other regulatory bodies turn blind eye either due to the influence of higher functionaries of the State or other extraneous reasons. Those who construct buildings in violation of the relevant statutory provisions, master plan etc. and those who directly or indirectly abet such violations are totally unmindful of the grave consequences of their actions and/or omissions on the present as well as future generations of the country which will be forced to live in unplanned cities and urban areas. The people belonging to this class do not realize that the constructions made in violation of the relevant laws, master plan or zonal development plan or sanctioned building plan or the building is used for a purpose other than the one specified in the relevant statute or the master plan etc., such constructions put unbearable burden on the public facilities/amenities like water, electricity, sewerage etc. apart from creating chaos on the roads. The pollution caused due to traffic congestion affects the health of the road users. The pedestrians and people belonging to weaker sections of the society, who cannot afford the luxury of air-conditioned cars, are the worst victims of pollution. They suffer from skin diseases of different types, asthma, allergies and even more dreaded diseases like cancer. It can only be a matter of imagination how much the government has to spend on the treatment of such persons and also for controlling pollution and adverse impact on the environment due to traffic congestion on the roads and chaotic conditions created due to illegal and unauthorized constructions. This Court has, from time to time, taken cognizance of buildings constructed in violation of municipal and other laws and emphasized that no compromise should be made with the town planning scheme and no relief should be given to the violator of the town planning scheme etc. on the ground that he has spent substantial amount on construction of the buildings etc. - K. Ramadas Shenoy V. Town Municipal Council, Udipi1974 (2) SCC 506, G.N. Khajuria(Dr.) V. DDA (1995) 5 SCC 762,M.I. Builders Pvt. Ltd. v. Radhey Shyam Sahu1999 (6) SCC 464,Friends Colony Development Committee V. State of Orissa2004 (8) SCC 733,M.C. Mehta V. Union of India2006 (3) SCC 399 andS.N. Chandrasekhar V. State of Karnataka2006 (3) SCC 208.\n75. Unfortunately, despite repeated judgments by the this Court and High Courts, the builders and other affluent people engaged in the construction activities, who have, over the years shown scant respect for regulatory mechanism envisaged in the municipal and other similar laws, as also the master plans, zonal development plans, sanctioned plans etc., have received encouragement and support from the State apparatus. As and when the courts have passed orders or the officers of local and other bodies have taken action for ensuring rigorous compliance of laws relating to planned development of the cities and urban areas and issued directions for demolition of the illegal/unauthorized constructions, those in power have come forward to protect the wrong doers either by issuing administrative orders or enacting laws for regularization of illegal and unauthorized constructions in the name of compassion and hardship. Such actions have done irreparable harm to the concept of planned development of the cities and urban areas. It is high time that the executive and political apparatus of the State take serious view of the menace of illegal and unauthorized constructions and stop their support to the lobbies of affluent class of builders and others, else even the rural areas of the country will soon witness similar chaotic conditions.\u201d\n6.4. Apart from the above, the Learned Counsel for the Petitioner refers to the following decisions:\n(i) In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court reported in (2010) 2 Supreme Court Cases, Priyanka Estates International Private Ltd.,and Others V. State of Assam and others at page 27, at Special Page 29, wherein it is observed and held as under :\nThe jurisdiction and power of courts to indemnify a citizen for injuries suffered due to such unauthorised or illegal construction having been erected by builder / coloniser is required to be compensated by them. An ordinary citizen or a common man is hardly equipped to match the might and power of the builders. In the case in hand, a number of occupiers were put in possession of the respective flats by the builder / developer constructed unauthorisedly in violation of the laws. Thus, looking to the matter from all angles, ultimately the flat already pocketed the price of the flat. It is a sound policy to punish the wrongdoer and it is in that spirit that the courts have moulded the reliefs of granting compensation to the victims in exercise of the powers conferred on it. In doing so, the courts are required to take into account not only the interest of the petitioners and the respondents but also the interest of public as a whole with a view that public bodies or officials or builders do not act unlawfully and do perform their duties properly. In the case on hand, admittedly, at no point of time was the builder able to show to its prospective purchasers the occupancy certificate or completion certificate issued by the authorities concerned.\u201d\n(ii) In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court reported in (2009) 1 Supreme Court Cases 240 [Rikhabsao Nathusao Jain V. Corporation of the City of Nagpur and Others] at special page 250 wherein at Paragraph Nos.20 and 21 it is stated as under:\n\u201820. The law relating to town planning having regard to the necessity to have a planned township keeping in view the ecology thereof has assumed great significance. The statutory authorities under the Act, therefore, must be allowed to exercise their statutory powers reasonably and in good faith. It, however, would not mean that the right of an owner of the land to raise constructions over the land would not be attended to for a long time. Erection or re-erection of a building must precede grant of an express sanction of building. The statute provides as to how and in what manner an application for grant of sanction of building plan should be dealt with.Section 275(3)of the Act, however, raises a legal fiction specifying the period of sixty days within which an application for grant of sanction of building plan should be considered by the appropriate authorities of the Corporation. The legislature, therefore, considered the said period of sixty days to be reasonable one during which the application for grant of sanction for a building plan should be attended to and appropriate order thereuponshould be passed. However, there cannot be any doubt whatsoever that when queries are raised or defects are pointed out in the building plan, the owner of the land must reply thereto and/or remove the defects pointed out.\n21. A building plan deemed to have been sanctioned must also satisfy the conditions laid down in the building bye-laws\u2019.\n(iii) In the decision of this Court reported in 2018-1- Writ Law Reporter 589 between Kiran Bai V. The District Collector, Collectorate Building, Coimbatore and others at Special page 595, at Paragraph Nos.11 and 13 it is observed as follows :\n11. This Court is of the view that as the building in question has been constructed in violation of the sanctioned Plan, the entire building has to be razed to the ground. It is made clear that if the 4th respondent herein submits a Revised Plan for approval, the same may be approved by the authorities concerned, if it is in confirmity with the norms and the 4th respondent will have to construct the building only in accordance with the Plan so sanctioned.\n13. It is disheartening to note that many buildings, including individual houses, Apartments, Commercial Complexes, etc. are constructed in violation of the sanctioned Plan, without leaving proper setback and in several cases, knowing well that it is a public road and Park, constructions are made. The fact remains that only the owner of the building is at loss, when a building, which is not constructed in accordance with the Plan, is ordered to be demolished, and the authorities, who issue Completion Certificate to such buildings, make hay while the sun shines. It is in collusion with the officials, these buildings are raised and on complaint, this Court directs them to be razed. This Court is of the view that unless a liability is fixed on the Government Servants, it will be very difficult to curtail encroachments. To safeguard the interest of the public at large, this Court issues the following directions:\n(i) After getting the approved Plan, once the basement of the building is constructed, the applicant shall approach the authorities concerned seeking to inspect the site before further progress, to ensure that there is no encroachment on the road and that there is proper setback on all sides, in accordance with the Plan.

The Learned Additional Government Pleader for the Respondents 1, 2 and 4 refers to G.O.Ms.No.2/Hg dated 08.01.2013 of the Government of Puducherry, Chief Secretariat (Housing) [issued under the Exercise of Powers Conferred as per Section 47 of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 [No. 13 of 1970]] wherein in the Amendment to Puducherry Building Byelaws and Zoning Regulations, 2012, the following Amendment to the Puducherry Zoning regulations Issued in G.O.Ms.No.5/ 2012-Hg., dated 05.03.2012 of the Chief Secretariat (Housing) and published in the Extraordinary Official Gazette No.21 dated 08.03.2012, the Clause 5 reads as under:\n\u20185.

The Learned Counsel for the 3rd Respondent contends that the 3rd Respondent was issued with a building plan by the 2nd Respondent / Puducherry Planning Authority dated 12.05.2010 and that the Writ Petitioner filed O.S.No.39 of 2011 on the file of the Learned Principal Sub-Judge, Puducherry against the Power Agent of the 3rd Respondent [Francis Arsene] wherein a relief for Declaration was sought for that the Writ Petitioner / Plaintiff is the absolute owner of the Suit \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property, for Recovery of \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property after eviction of 3rd Respondent [Arsene Jocelyn] and removal of encroachment, for Mandatory Injunction in directing the Defendant to demolish all illegal constructions raised by him in the suit \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property and for Permanent Injunction restraining the Defendant, his, men, Agents, and Servants from raising further construction in \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property and thereby committing waste and damage of the suit B Schedule Property and that the 3rd Respondent\u2019s building is 100 years old.\n8.2.

Added further, the 3rd Respondent by the Demolition Notice dated 15.04.2011 was directed to demolish the unauthorised deviated construction strictly within one month from the date of issuance of Notice and restore the building as per the \u2018Approved Plan\u2019, failing which, was informed that further action would be taken against her, as per the provisions of the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969.\n13.

It comes to be known that the 3rd Respondent on 23.12.2013 was issued with a \u2018Stop Work Notice\u2019 and was directed to maintain \u2018status quo\u2019 of the building besides informing that no further construction should be carried out till the decision is taken by the Board on the Appeal dated 12.12.2013 by the Chief Town Planner cum Member Secretary, TCP Board [1st Respondent ].\n16. It is to be noted that the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority had addressed a letter dated 06.01.2014 to the Petitioner to her representation dated 30.09.2013 among other things, it is mentioned that subsequently this Authority has received revised plan from the 3rd Respondent on 27.11.2013 and on scrutiny of the said plan, it was observed that the said proposal was not in conformity of Puducherry Building Bye-Laws Zoning Regulations, 2012 and therefore, a letter was sent again to the Power Agent of the 3rd Respondent as well as to the 3rd Respondent to comply with the earlier demolition notice dated 15.04.2011 and demolish the said deviated construction immediately.\n17. In this connection, this Court relevantly points out that the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Government of Puducherry had addressed a letter dated 19.09.2014 to the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Planning Authority, in and by which it was stated that the Appeal of the Power Agent of the 3rd Respondent was examined and the following observations were made,\n\u2018Since the coverage and FAR provided are far in excess of the permissible limit of 75% and 180, the Board decided to dispose the appeal with a direction to Puducherry Planning Authority to initiate action to seal the topmost two floors (second & third floor) and \u2018sealing of staircase & lift which provide access to the third and fourth floor\u2019\nand a request was made to comply with the directions of the 1st Respondent / TCP Board.\n18.

The Writ Petitioner as against the 3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent had filed a suit in O.S.No.39 of 2011 on the file of Learned Principal Sub Judge, Puducherry and that the trial Court passed a decree in favour of the Writ Petitioner / Plaintiff in regard to the relief of declaration that she is the absolute owner of the Suit \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property and further, entitled for recovery of possession of \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property from the Defendant.

Section 2[5] of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 (No.13 of 1970) [came into force on 15.09.1971 under the Head \u2018Building\u2019 includes,\n(a) a house, out-house, stable, latrine, godown, shed, hut, wall [other than a boundary wall not exceeding 2.5 metres in height] and any other structure whether of masonry, bricks, mud, metal or any other material whatsoever;\n(b) a structure on wheels or simply resting on the ground without foundations; and\n(c) a ship, vessel, boat, tent, van or any other structure used for human habitation or used for keeping or storing any article or goods;\n24.

Section 2[10] of the Act defines \u2018Court\u2019 meaning a Principal Civil Court of Original Jurisdiction and, includes any other Court empowered by the Government to perform the functions of the Court under this Act within the pecuniary and local limits of its jurisdiction.\n26. It is useful to refer the Definition to Section 2[25) of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 which speaks of \u2018Planning Area\u2019 means, any area declared to be a local planning area under Section 8 of this Act. Section 2(31) of the Act, 1969 under the caption \u2018Regulation\u2019 means, a \u2018Regulation\u2019 made under this Act by the Government and includes Zoning and Other Regulations made as a part of a Development Plan.\n27. Section 37 of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 concerns that \u2018Prohibition of Development without payment of Development Charges and without Permission\u2019.28. It is to be remembered that Section 43 of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 speaks of \u2018Penalty for unauthorised Development or for use Otherwise than in Conformity with the Development Plan\u2019. Section 44(1) of the Act relates to \u2018Power to require removal of Unauthorised Development\u2019. Section 45 of the Act pertains to \u2018Power to Stop Unauthorised Development\u2019. Section 46 of the Act deals with \u2018Power to Require Removal of Unauthorised Development or Use\u2019.\n29. Section 44(5) of the Act says that after considering the report being submitted and hearing the Appellant, the Board may dismiss the Appeal or accept the appeal by quashing or varying the notice as it may think fit.\n30. Section 44(7) of the Act enjoins that any person prosecuted under Sub Section (6)(a) of Section 44 shall be punishable with a fine which may extend to ten thousand Rupees and in the case of a continuing offence with a further fine, which may extend to five hundred rupees for everyday, during which, such offence continues after conviction for the first commission of the offence.\n31.

Section 69 of the Act deals with \u2018Sanction of Prosecution\u2019 for which the previous sanction of the Board or Planning Authority or any Officer authorised by the Board or the Planning Authority in this behalf shall be obtained. Section 70 of the Act speaks of \u2018Composition of Offences\u2019 punishable by or under the Act, 1969. Further, when an offence is compounded as per Section 70(2) of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969, the offender, if in custody, shall be discharged and no further proceeding, shall be taken against him in respect of the offence compounded.\n33. Section 71 of the Act relates to Jurisdiction of First Class Magistrate, who shall try an offence punishable under this Act. Section 72 of the Act pertains to \u2018All fines realised in connection with prosecution shall be paid to the Planning Authority concerned\u2019.\n34. The scheme of any Town and Country Planning Act of any State can only be to identify the numerous planning areas into the Residential, Mixed Residential, Commercial, Institutional Use, Open Space, Recreational House etc. In fact, the Planning permission and Building permission are two different concepts and both will have to be obtained by the person concerned.\n35. What is an Offence:\n35.1. The term \u2018Offence\u2019 shall mean any act or omission made punishable by any law for the time being in force as per Section 3(38) of the General Clauses Act [10 of 1897].\n35.2. It is to be mentioned that certain types of wrongs are of a public character because it affects the entire public and not only the person whose rights or property were infringed and such a wrong is characterised a Crime. In short, the said wrong can be defined as any act or omission which is prohibited by Law, to which a punishment is annexed and that the State Government prosecutes in its own name.\n35.3. Also, this Court points out the decision of the Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court in State of Rajasthan V. Bhagwan Das Agrawal and others, (2013) 16 Supreme Court Cases 574 at special page 584 wherein at Paragraph No.18, it is observed as under:\n\u201c18.An offence means any act or omission made punishable by law. ....\u201d\nComposition / Compounding:\n36. A \u2018Composition\u2019 is of arrangement whereunder there is a settlement of differences between the affected / injured party and the person against whom the complaint is made. If a person is charged with an offence, unless there is some provision of composition of it, the Law must take its course and the charge enquired into resulting in either conviction or acquittal of an accused.\n37. The term \u2018Compounding\u2019 in respect of an offence means forbearing from prosecution for consideration or private motives. A \u2018Compoundable Offence\u2019 is an offence, which the Law allows to be compounded privately between the parties. As a matter of fact, certain less serious offence can be compounded, meaning thereby that an accused paying an aggrieved amount to the victim, an accused is acquitted. Some compoundable offence, in Indian Law, can be compounded only with the permission of the concerned Court. It must be borne in mind that the word \u2018Compromise\u2019 cannot be equated with \u2018Compounding\u2019. As a matter of fact, the payment of compounding fee / charges in respect of Building violation / Unauthorised development / construction does not ipso facto mean a \u2018Deemed Regularisation\u2019, in the considered opinion of this Court. An exercise of discretion by the Authorities concerned cannot be guided / goaded by an Exigency. The Administrative / Executive Authorities are not supposed to exercise their discretion based on their strange dispositions and special likings. Based on sound legal principles, a discretion is to be exercised by the authorities concerned, of course, in accordance with Law.\n38. In the present case, when the 1st Respondent passed an Impugned Order on 25.10.2017, the Petitioner or her Husband was not heard. In respect of an illegal construction / breach of plan / encroachment, it is the complainant, who is the real and suitable person to bring to the attention of the authorities about the violation / unauthorised development made and in reality, no prejudice would be caused to anyone, if the complainant was heard. Unfortunately, since the Petitioner and her Husband , as an objector, was not heard by the 1st Respondent at the time of passing the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017, this Court earnestly opines that the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 suffers from Patent, Material, Legal Infirmity in the Eye of Law.39. In regard to the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Government of Puducherry, this Court is of the considered view that it does not in an express manner point out that the \u2018Policy and Purposes of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969\u2019 had weighed with the requisite Authority while deciding to allow the appeal of the 3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent dated 10.04.2015. Also that, the Impugned order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent is conspicuously silent as to the qualitative and quantitative detailed deliberations that took place while deciding to allow the Appeal at the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Board\u2019s Meeting that took place on 17.08.2017.\n40. It is to be remembered that in the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent does not refer to Annexure-XX \u2018Penal Action for Violation of Provisions of Development Code of Master Plan, Building Bye-law and Zonal Regulation\u2019 relating to the (i) Compounding Excess Coverage / FAR and (ii) Compounding Items. That apart, in the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017, there is no mention to the ingredients of Section 44(5) of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969, as opined by this Court.41. A mere glance of the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 of the 1st Respondent / the Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Board, Puducherry indicates that the same does not refer to the Judgment of the Principal Sub Judge, Puducherry in O.S.No.39 of 2011 filed by the Writ Petitioner [as Plaintiff] against the Power Agent of the 3rd Respondent, viz., Francis Arsene. Although the Respondent Nos.1 and 2 were not parties in the Suit in O.S.No.39 of 2011 on the file of the trial Court, yet, this Court is of the considered view that the existence of the Judgment made in O.S.No.39 of 2011 dated 04.09.2017, it\u2019s legal implications / consequences, the production of the copy of the same, is a conclusive evidence of the facts against the whole, based on the reason that \u2018Judgment\u2019 is a Public transaction of the solemn character, having sanctity of the Court. If a right of a litigant was decided by a Judgment, the fact can be established by producing a copy of the Judgment, since in such a case, the existence of Judgment is quite relevant. A Judgment not inter-parties, is admissible in evidence in a particular circumstances, in certain cases, if an existence of such Judgment is a \u2018Relevant Fact\u2019 or \u2018Fact in Issue\u2019. Section 43 of the Evidence Act, 1872 clearly visualises the cases in which the Judgment could be admissible under other Sections of the Act, which are not admissible under Sections 40, 41 and 42 of the Act.\n42. As per Section 43 of the Indian Evidence Act, the issue that may crop up for one\u2019s rumination is whether existence of the Judgment and decree a \u2018Fact in Issue or is it relevant\u2019 under some other provisions of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. That apart, \u2018Judgments\u2019 not inter-parties are admissible as evidence of assertion of right claimed. Moreover, recitals in the Judgment \u2018Inter-parties\u2019 is admissible and if it refers to the points in issue.\n43. At this juncture, this Court significantly points out that if an Authority passes an Administrative Order, then, it ought be a reasoned one. There must be atleast an outline process of reasoning. It cannot be gainsaid that an \u2018Unreasoned Order\u2019 may be just from the point of view of the person, who passes such an order. However, the same may not appear to be so to the dis-satisfied / affected person. To put it precisely, a \u2018Reasoned Order\u2019 will have an \u2018Appearance of Justice\u2019.\n44. The power of granting exemption of Building Rules, Regulations or satisfying the conditions imposed in a particular act is to be exercised with utmost care, caution and the same cannot be exercised in a free manner resulting in the material policy of the enactment being affected. Furthermore, the exercise of power bestowed on the delegatee is undoubtedly controlled by the Policy of the act in issue. It is to be mentioned that the discretionary power enjoined upon any authority shall be exercised by taking into all relevant factors and not otherwise.\n45. One cannot ignore an important fact that the Civil Court shall have jurisdiction to try all the suits of Civil nature except taking cognizance of such suit is expressly or impliedly barred. As per Section 101 r/w Sections 49, 56 and 80 of the Tamilnadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, the Civil Courts jurisdiction are barred. The Issuance of Mandamus:\n46. It is to be pointed out that a \u2018Writ of Mandamus\u2019 will lie not only to enforce statutory right, but, it can also be issued to enforce a public duty. It is a primordial duty of Public Authorities to adhere to the specific provisions of Law for a particular purpose and they cannot take Law into their hands, if there is a genuine and reasonable apprehension of negation of such duty, then, a citizen can approach a competent Court of Law for seeking redressal of his grievances, if he so desires / advised.\n47. Scenario of Decided Cases :\n47.1. At this stage, this Court worth recalls and recollects the decision of Gopi Sundari Dasi and Others V. Kherod Gobinda Chowdhury and Others reported in 1925 Calcutta 194, wherein it is observed as under:\n\u201cUnder certain circumstances and in certain cases, the judgment in a previous suit to which one of the parties in the subsequent suit was not a party may be admissible in evidence for certain purposes and with certain objects in the subsequent suit.\u201d47.2. In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court reported in (1991) 4 Supreme Court Cases 54 Bangalore Medical Trust V. B.S.Muddappa and Others at Special Pages 57 and 58, held as under:\nDiscretion is an effective tool in administration. It provides an option to the authority concerned to adopt one or the other alternative. But a better, proper and legal exercise of discretion is one where the authority examines the fact, is aware of law and then decides objectively and rationally what serves the interest better. When a statute either provides guidance or rules or regulations are framed for exercise of discretion then the action should be in accordance with it. Even where statutes are silent and only power is conferred to act in one or the other manner, the Authority cannot act whimsically or arbitrarily. It should be guided by reasonableness and fairness. The legislature never intends its authorities to abuse the law or use it unfairly. Where the law requires an authority to act or decide, \u2018if it appears to it necessary\u2019 or if he is \u2018of opinion that a particular act should be done\u2019 then it is implicit that it should be done objectively, fairly and reasonably. In a democratic set up the people or community being sovereign the exercise of discretion is accountable for his action. It is to be tested on anvil of rule of law and fairness or justice particularly if competing interests of members of society is involved. Decisions affecting public interest or the necessity of doing it in the light of guidance provided by the Act and rules may not require intimation to person affected yet the exercise of discretion is vitiated if the action is bereft of rationality, lacks objective and purposive approach. Public interest or general good or social betterment have no doubt priority over private or individual interest but it must not be a pretext to justify the arbitrary or illegal exercise of power. It must withstand scrutiny of the legislative standard provided by the statute itself. The authority exercising discretion must not appear to be impervious to legislative directions. The action or decision must not only be reached reasonably and intelligibly but it must be related to the purpose for which power is exercised. No one howsoever high can arrogate to himself or assume without any authorisation express or implied in law a discretion to ignore the rules and deviate from rationality by adopting a strained or distorted interpretation as it renders the action ultra vires and bad in law.\n47.3. In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court reported in AIR 2000 Supreme Court 164 between State of Uttar Pradesh V. Chandrika at Paragraph No.3, it is observed as under:\n\u20183. It is apparent that the order passed by the High Court is, on the face of it, illegal and erroneous. It appears that the learned Judge has overlooked the settled law or is unaware that concept of \u2018plea bargaining\u2019 is not recognized and is against public policy under our criminal justice system. Section 320 Cr.P.C., provides for compounding of certain offences with the permission of the Court and certain others even without permission of the Court. Except the above, the concept of negotiated settlement in criminal cases is not permissible. This method of short circuiting the hearing and deciding the criminal appeals or cases involving serious offences requires no encouragement. Neither the State nor the Public prosecutor nor even the Judge can bargain that evidence would not be led or appreciated in consideration of getting flee bite sentence by pleading guilty\u2019.\n47.4. At this stage, this Court cites the decision of S.T.Sundaram V. Veerateswaran and Others reported in 2003 \u2013 2 \u2013 L.W. 454 at Special Page 461 at Paragraph Nos. 12 and 13 observed as under:\n\u201c12.The scheme of the Act provided for constitution of the Planning Board and notifying planning area, constitution and appointment of planning authorities, the terms of office and meetings of the planning authorities. The Act provided for procedure for approval and preparation of development plan and control of the development and use of the land. The Act also provided for provision for revocation of the permission to develop the land and imposition of penalty for the development of the land, otherwise than in conformity with the Act. It further provided power to the authorities require removal of unauthorised development. Hence, the entire scheme of the Act is for the purpose of development of the area and the granting of permission for the purpose of developing the land i.e., granting of planning permission for putting up construction and taking action against violation or irregularities and the Act also provides for appeal provision to appellate authority by the aggrieved person. Hence, so far as the application for planning permission, refusal and any order passed thereon can be adjudicated under the provisions of the Act. However, a third party, who is being aggrieved by the action taken by the authorities under the Act cannot have recourse under the Act as per the Scheme of the Act and as such, it cannot be said that he cannot move Civil Court for ventilating his grievance against the statutory authorities.\n13. It is very well settled that the normal rule of law is that civil Courts have jurisdiction to try all suits of civil nature except those of which cognizance by them is either expressly or impliedly excluded as provided under Section 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure but such exclusion is not readily inferred and the presumption to be drawn must be in favour of the existence rather than exclusion of jurisdiction of the civil Courts to try civil suit. The test adopted in examining such a question is (i) whether the legislative intent to exclude arises explicitly or by necessary implication, and (ii) whether the statute in question provides for adequate and satisfactory alternative remedy to a party aggrieved by an order made under it. Where a statute gives finality to the orders of the special tribunals jurisdiction of the civil Courts must be held to be excluded if there is adequate remedy to do what the civil Courts would normally do in a suit. Such provision, however, does not exclude those cases where the provisions of the particular Act have not been complied with or the statutory Tribunal has not acted in conformity with the fundamental principles of judicial procedure. This legal principle has been settled by the Supreme Court for nearly more than 30 years back in Dhulabhai\u2019s case. [Dhulabhai V. State of Madhya Pradesh reported in AIR 1969 Supreme Court 78].\n47.5. In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court in Mohinder Singh Gill and Another V. The Chief Election Commissioner, New Delhi and Others reported in (1978) 1 Supreme Court Cases 405, Special Page 417 at Paragraph No.8 had observed the following:\n\u20188. The second equally relevant matter is that when a statutory functionary makes an order based on certain grounds, its validity must be judged by the reasons so mentioned and cannot be supplemented by fresh reasons in the shape of affidavit or otherwise. Otherwise, an order bad in the beginning may, by the time it comes to Court on account of a challenge, get validated by additional grounds later brought out. We may here draw attention to the observations of Bose, J in Gordhandas Bhanji [Commr. Of Police, Bombay V.Gordhandas Bhanji, AIR 1952 SC 16]\u2019\n47.6. In the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court reported in (1995) 1 Supreme Court Cases 47 PT. Chet Ram Vashist (Dead) by Lrs. V. Municipal Corporation of Delhi at Paragraph No.6 it is observed as follows:\n\u201c6. Reserving any site for any street, open space, park, school etc. in a layout plan is normally a public purpose as it is inherent in such reservation that it shall be used by the public in general. The effect of such reservation is that the owner ceases to be a legal owner of the land in dispute and he holds the land for the benefit of the society or the public in general. It may result in creating an obligation in nature of trust and may preclude the owner from transferring or selling his interest in it. It may be true as held by the High Court that the interest which is left in the owner s a residuary interest which may be nothing more than a right to hold this land in trust for the specific purpose specified by the coloniser in the sanctioned layout plan. But the question is, does it entitle the Corporation to claim that the land so specified should be transferred to the authority free of cost. That is not made out from any provision in the Act or on any principle of law. The Corporation by virtue of the land specified as open space may get a right as a custodian of public interest to manage it in the interest of the society in general. But right to manage as a local body is not the same thing as to claim transfer of the property to itself. The effect of transfer of the property is that the transferor ceases to be owner of it and the ownership stands transferred to the person in whose favour it is transferred. The resolution of the Committee to transfer land in the colony for park and school was an order for transfer without there being any sanction for the same in law.\u2019\n47.7. It is useful to refer to the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court in Chairman, Indore Vikas Pradhikaran V. Pure Industrial Coke Chemicals Limited and others reported in (2007) 8 Supreme Court Cases 705, at Special Pages 706 and 707, it is observed and held as follows:\n\u201cExpropriatory legislation, as is well-known, must be given a strict construction. The Act being regulatory in nature as by reason thereof the right of an owner of property to use and develop stands restricted, requires strict construction. An owner of land ordinarily would be entitled to use or develop the same for any purpose unless there exists certain regulation in a statute or a statutory rules. Regulations contained in such statute must be interpreted in such a manner so as to least interfere with the right of property of the owner of such land. Restrictions are made in larger public interest. Such restrictions, indisputably must be reasonable ones. The statutory scheme contemplates that a person and owner of land should not ordinarily be deprived from the user thereof by way of reservation or designation. (Paras 57 and 58).\nWhereas an attempt should be made to prevent unplanned and haphazard development but the same would not mean that the court would close its eyes to the blatant illegalities committed by the State and/or the statutory authorities in implementation of the statute concerned. Implementation of such land development as also building laws should be in consonance with public welfare and convenience....(Para 46)\u201d\n47.8. In the Full Bench Decision Ramaraju V. the State of Tamilnadu rep. By its Secretary to Government, Revenue, Department, Fort. St. George, Chennai and Others [Madurai Bench of Madras High Court] reported in 2005(2) CTC 741 at special pages 757 and 758 wherein at Paragraph No.38, it is observed as under:\n\u201c38. It is of course true that in the two counter affidavits, the municipalities have taken the stand, quite expectedly and understandably, that they have no intention to take any step for removal of any encroachment from the road or road margins without following the due procedure of law and they do not have the intention to take steps for eviction of any person from any land not belonging to the municipalities. However, since the news item appearing in the News Papers gives the impression as if Rajapalayam Municipality intended to remove all encroachments pursuant to the order passed by the High Courts in W.P.No. 689 of 2005 and since certain misconceptions have arisen as if the Division Bench has given a blanket direction for removal of encroachment even without following due process of law, the matter is required to be clarified in the following manner :\n(1) If the encroachment is on road or road margins, vested in Municipalities, the removal if any is to be effected only after following the procedure contemplated in Chapter IX of the Tamil Nadu District Municipalities Act and more particularly the provisions contained inSection 182and Section 183(6) Before taking action under Section 182 of the District Municipalities Act, notice in writing giving atleast two weeks time should be served and, if the person avoids to receive the notice, such notice can be effected by affixure. However, notice by any other means, such as through public announcement or beating of drums or by general notice in newspapers, may not be sufficient.\n(2) The decision in W.P.No. 689 of 2005 cannot be construed as having abrogated the statutory power of the Council underSections 182and183. The Council may grant licence to put up verandas, balconies, sunshades, weather-frames and the like. Similarly, the Council has power to lease road sides and street margins for occupation on such terms and conditions and for such period as the Council may fix. However, such power underSections 183(1)and183(3)should be exercised keeping in view the provisions contained inSection 183(4)and no such licence underSection 183(1)or lease under-Section 183(3)should be granted if the projection, construction or occupation is likely to be injurious to health or cause public inconvenience or otherwise materially interfere with the use of the road as such. Any projection or construction put up underSection 183(1)or (2) can be removed on expiry of the licence or the lease, as the case may be. Compensation is required to be paid in matters coming within the scope of 182(2).\n(3) Payment of property tax, provisions of water connection or electricity by themselves cannot be construed as conferring any independent right, if the encroachment is otherwise unauthorised.\n(4) The above directions and observations are also applicable to encroachment in respect of road or road margins coming within the jurisdiction of Municipal Corporations or Town and Village Panchayats, in which event, necessary action can be taken by the concerned authorities by following the relevant provisions of law applicable to such Corporations or Panchayats.\n(5) To the extent theNational Highways Act, 1956 and the Control of National Highways (Land and Traffic) Act, 2002 are applicable, action can be taken only by following the procedure prescribed under such statutes. Similarly the provisions of the Tamil Nadu Highways Act, 2001, are applicable to the Roads coming under theState Act.\n(6) If the encroachment is on the land belonging to the Local Authorities, but such land is not part of the road or road margin or roadside land, eviction can be effected by following the procedure contemplated in law, namely, either by taking recourse to theTamil Nadu Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1975 or any other law applicable or otherwise by taking recourse to Civil Courts and not by use of unilateral force.\n(7) So far as the encroachment on the land belonging to the Government is concerned, action for eviction if any can be taken only by the appropriate authority and by following the procedure contemplated under the Tamil Nadu Land Encroachment Act, 1905.\n(8) The directions issued in W.P.No. 689 of 2005 are applicable to removal of encroachments on roads and road margins and not other lands belonging to the Local Authorities or the State. The said decision should not be construed as giving a licence to the Local Authorities to cancel the existing license or lease or to remove the encroachments without following the procedure contemplated under the law.\n(9) If any Civil Courts decree or interim order is holding the field, obviously, no action can be taken, unless and until such a decree or interim order is set aside or vacated in a manner known to law.\nLaw of the Land :\n48. As per Article, 141 of the Constitution of India, a Law laid down by the Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court is the \u2018Law of the Land\u2019 and shall be binding on all the Courts within India. As per Article 144 of the Constitution of India, all the authorities, i.e., Civil, Judicial, shall act in aid of the Supreme Court. No wonder, it is the obligation of all concerned to act thereof and obey the decision and directions issued therein until and unless the same is varied or modified or recalled.\n49. In a democracy, where a Rule of Law prevails, then, no consideration should be shown to a Person or Builder for that matter where construction / development made, is an unauthorised one. As a matter of fact, \u2018Unauthorised Construction\u2019, if it is illegal, cannot be compounded and a judicial discretion is to be exercised by a Court of Law, in accordance with Law and based on said legal principles. In this regard, this Court aptly refers to the decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court M.I.Builders Pvt., Ltd., V. Radhey Shyam Sahu and Others reported in AIR 1999 Supreme Court at page 2468 wherein at Paragraph No.82 at Special Page 2505, it is observed and held as under:\n\u201c82. High Court has directed dismantling of the whole project and for restoration of the park to its original condition. This Court in numerous decisions has held that no consideration should be shown to the builder or any other person where construction is unauthorised. This dicta is no almost bordering rule of law. Stress was laid by the appellant and the prospective allottees of the shops to exercise judicial discretion in moulding the relief. Such discretion cannot be exercised which encourages illegality or perpetuates an illegality. Unauthorised construction, if it is illegal and cannot be compounded, has to be demolished. There is no way out. Judicial discretion cannot be guided by expediency. Courts are not free from statutory fetters. Justice is to be rendered in accordance with law. Judges are not entitled to exercise discretion wearing robes of judicial discretion and pass orders based solely on their personal predilections and peculiar dispositions. Judicial discretion wherever it is required to be exercised has to be in accordance with law and set legal principles. As will be seen in moulding the relief in the present case and allowing one of the blocks meant for parking to stand we have been guided by the obligatory duties of the Mahapalika to construct and maintain parking lots.\u201d\n50. It may not be out of place for this Court to make a mention that no one has any vested right to seek for \u2018Regularisation\u2019, as per decision of this Court reported in 2006 (5) CTC 449 between P.T.Prabhakar and Another V. The Member Secretary, Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority and others.\n51. Also that, this Court in the decision reported in 2005(1) Law Weekly at Page 643 between Salahudeen Babu V. P.T.Prabakar had observed that \u2018Putting up of illegal construction without applying for Planning Permission and latter seeking ratification or regularisation must be stopped forthwith and such constructions should be demolished.\u2019\n52. An Orderly planned development of Town is the scheme of any State Government under the Town and Country Planning Act. In fact, Planning under the Town and Country Planning Act, of any welfare Government must only be related to the development and it shall not deal with Acquisition of property. An unauthorised building can be demolished without notice, as per decision of this Court in Madras Metropolitan Development Authority represented by its Member Secretary V. P.Muthukrishnan and others reported in 2005 [1] CTC Page 573.\n53. The prime considerations of regulating provisions pertaining of construction activities are public interest and convenience. In regard to the aspect of seeking sanction for construction, no vested right can be claimed by anyone divested from public interest or public convenience, as per decision of Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court in Howrah Municipal Corporation V. Ganges Rope Company Limited, (2004) 1 Supreme Court Cases 663.\n54. In the plaint \u2018A\u2019 Schedule Property in O.S.No.39 of 2011, in respect of the property being a terraced house, Door No.93 situated at Monthorsier Street with an extent of 6.30 ms East to West and 31.40ms South to North comprised in Ward D, Block No.13, T.S.No.168, R.S.No.239 pt. An extent of 50 Sq.ft., being a portion of \u2018A\u2019 Schedule Property, was described as \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property, wherein the Defendant [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent] had put an illegal construction, for which the eviction was sought against the Defendant [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent ] for removal of encroachment etc.,\n55. Suffice it for this Court to pertinently point out that the Issue No.5 of the Judgment in O.S.No.39 of 2011 of the trial Court unerringly points out that the Defendant therein [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent] was restrained from putting up further construction in \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property and that the Plaintiff [Writ Petitioner] was granted the relief of Permanent Injunction in respect of the \u2018B\u2019 Schedule Property. In pith and substance, the Defendant in the aforesaid suit [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent] in the present W.P.No.31949 of 2017 was directed to demolish the construction on the \u2018B\u2019 Schedule property and accordingly, the Issue No.4 was answered by the trial Court to and in favour of the Writ Petitioner / Plaintiff.\n56. In so far as the Official Respondents 1 and 2 pertaining to the Judgment and Decree of the trial Court dated 14.09.2017 in O.S.No.39 of 2011 [filed by the Writ Petitioner as Plaintiff against the Defendant therein (3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent in present Writ Petition)] is concerned, it is to be pointed out that even though they were not parties and no specific direction was given to them to take action against the Defendant, the fact of the matter is, when the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 passed by the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Puducherry and when the building permit was granted on 21.11.2017 for four storied residential flats building at R.S.No.239 pt., T.S.No.169, Ward-D, Block No.13, Door No.91 [Old No.55], Montorsier Street, Puducherry Revenue Village, Puducherry Municipality, Puducherry by the 2nd Respondent / Member Secretary, Puducherry Planning Authority, as on those dates, the Judgment and Decree dated 04.09.2017 in O.S.No.39 of 2011 stare at them and it cannot be bypassed or ignored or supplanted or circumvented by anyone on the ground one was not party to the civil case and no specific direction was issued to the concerned authority to take action against the concerned Person.\n57. Indeed, when the Judgment of the trial Court in O.S.No.39 of 2011 is very much in favour of the Writ Petitioner / Mariadassou Philomene Dominique Marie Anthoinette and as against the Defendant [3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent] then, it ought to be obeyed even by the 3rd parties / strangers, since the said Judgment is quite admissible even against them. By not taking into account of the Judgment dated 04.09.2017 in O.S.No.39 of 2011 on the file of the trial Court, the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 passed by the 1st Respondent and later the subsequent order passed by the 2nd Respondent dated 21.11.2017 in granting permission for four storeyed residential flats building [executed] situated at Rs.No.239 pt., T.S. No.169, Ward D, Block D, Old no. 55, Door No.91, Montorsier Street, Puducherry Revenue Village, Puducherry Municipality, Puducherry, are per se illegal, in the considered opinion of this Court.\n58. Besides the above, this Court points out that (i) when the Deviation-Cum-Demolition Notice dated 15.04.2011 issued by the 2nd Respondent addressed to the 3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent mentioned about the commencement of construction works and reached up to ground floor (roof laid) level deviating from the approved plan without obtaining prior permission as required under the Pondicherry Town and Country Planning Act in negation to the provisions of Sub-Clause (1) of Clause 12 of Part I of Building Byelaws and Zoning Regulation, 1972; (ii) when the Demolition notice dated 29.11.2013 of the 2nd Respondent addressed to the 3rd Respondent had not considered the request for approval of the building being constructed at the location in question for the reasons,\n(a) The coverage (97.33%) and FAR (368.40) of the building being constructed at site exceeded the permissible limits of 75% and 180 respectively\n(b) The stair width, room size, ventilation, OTS Size and parking space are sub standard. Fire escape staircase has not been provided.\n(c) The roof for whole length has been projected over the road in front. etc.;\nand (iii) when the Appeal of the 3rd Respondent\u2019s Power Agent dated 12.12.2013 was disposed of by the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board, Puducherry on 19.09.2014 by giving a direction to the 2nd Respondent to initiate action to seal the topmost two floors [2nd and 3rd floors] and sealing of staircase and lift which provide access to the third and fourth floor etc., it passes beyond one\u2019s comprehension as to how the Concerned Authority has power to entertain the Appeal for the second time and this aspect was not dealt with and also not meted out by the 1st Respondent / Member Secretary, Town and Country Planning Board in the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017. Moreover, when a Judgment and Decree of a Competent Court in O.S.No.39 of 2011 are very much in existence, even though it is an Exparte Decree, in Law, the same holds good and when the Judgment and Decree in O.S.No.39 of 2011 dated 04.09.2017 on the file of the trial Court are not set aside, in accordance with Law, passing of an Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 by the 1st Respondent and the Building Permit issued by the 2nd Respondent dated 21.11.2017 are legally untenable, in the considered opinion of this Court.\n58. In the light of detailed qualitative and quantitative discussions aforesaid and notwithstanding the plea taken on behalf of the Respondents 1 and 2 that Section 70 (1) of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 [Act 13 of 1970) permits \u2018Composition of Offences\u2019 either before or after the institution of the proceedings in respect of any offence made punishable by or under this Act etc.,this Court is of the considered view that in Law, when an offence is compounded either by an arrangement or settlement, the same will result in an Acquittal of the offender / Accused and as per Section 70(2) of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969, when an offence was compounded and when an offender is in custody, he shall be discharged and that no further proceedings shall be taken against him in respect of an offence compounded. In other words, the Composition / Compounding of an Offence under the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 will restrain a person from being prosecuted, since he had paid the necessary charges. But, in the present case, as regards an Unauthorised Development / Building Violation made or committed by the 3rd Respondent, this Court keeping in mind of the dictum laid down by the Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court between M.I.Builders (P) Ltd., V. Radhey Shayam Sahu in 1999 (6) Supreme Court Cases at Page 464 = AIR 1999 SC 2468, the unauthorised construction in the subject matter in issue being an illegal one cannot be compounded by any means whatsoever. Even the Puducherry ByeLaw Zoning Regulations, 2012 issued under Section 47 of the Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 cannot come to rescue of the Respondents 1 and 2 as well as the 3rd Respondent. If an unauthorised construction/development made by the 3rd Respondent is given the seal of approval by the Respondents 1 and 2 in passing the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 and the consequential order 21.11.2017 respectively, then, the same will result in encouraging an illegality or perpetuating illegality and the Court of Law cannot encourage the same in a Democratic Polity, based on the \u2018Principle of Rule of Law\u2019. Looking at from any angle, the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 and the consequential order dated 21.11.2017 do not stand scrutiny in the eye of Law, since they are per se illegal. Viewed in that perspective, the Writ succeeds.\nIn fine, the Writ Petition is allowed. Resultantly, the Impugned Order dated 25.10.2017 and the consequential order dated 21.11.2017 are quashed by this Court for the reasons assigned in the present Writ Petition. As a logical corollary, the Respondents 1 and 2 are directed to take follow up Enforcement action, as envisaged under Puducherry Town and Country Planning Act, 1969 [Act 13 of 1970] to its logical end against the 3rd Respondent, by scrupulously adhering to the orders passed by this Court in true letter and spirit, of course, in accordance with Law. No costs. Consequently, the connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.",

or\n(b)direct that the recommended provisional release date no longer applies.\n47Notwithstanding that the Parole Board has made a direction under paragraph 46(b) above, the punishment part of the prisoner\u2019s sentence shall be regarded as having been served as at the end of the day immediately before the recommended provisional release date and section 2 of the 1993 Act as amended by this Act shall apply to the prisoner as if an order such as is mentioned in subsection (2) of that section had been made in respect of the prisoner when sentenced.\n48Where the Parole Board has made a direction under paragraph 46(a) above in respect of a prisoner on or after the recommended provisional release date, the Scottish Ministers shall release the prisoner on licence as soon as reasonably practicable after that direction is made;

        "raw_content": "(October 27, 1943 \u2014 November 5, 2011)\nPhotograph by Beth Gwinn (Click For More)\nThis year at Necon we buried Les Daniels. Not literally of course, though I think he would have liked that. It was the most unusual, most original funeral celebration I\u2019ve ever attended. And maybe the most moving. There was no set program, simply an open mike. Chet Williamson sang one of Les\u2019 songs, Cortney Skinner unveiled a magnificent portrait of Les commissioned by Mark Angevine, and one by one his sister, a few dozen friends, artists, and writers came forward to tell of his influence on their lives. Some were strictly professional but most were intensely personal and his importance became apparent to all in the room. The memories lasted longer than we planned but even at that I was told by many in attendance afterward that they would have come up also but weren\u2019t sure they could add to what had been said by those who did. If they had, the celebration would have lasted long into the night.\nThe celebration was held in the main lecture room at the Baypoint Conference Center, part of Roger Williams University. That too was appropriate, in an odd way. Les lived his entire adult life on Benefit Street, within a few blocks of where old Roger settled when he got kicked out of Massachusetts, and of the church he founded, the First Baptist Church in America. It was within a block of The Golden Ball Inn (where Poe drank after being rejected by Sarah Whitman); The Atheneum Library (where he wrote his name in a book); St. John\u2019s Cemetary (where he sat forlorn and watched the sunset); and The Shunned House, famously used by Lovecraft in his story of that name. Benefit Street is also within walking distance of both Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design. Les was like Ralph Ellison\u2019s Invisible Man, living in a basement at the heart of a vibrant, cultural center yet almost invisible \u2014 almost.

        "title": "Re-Thinking Your Legacy",
        "raw_content": "Accepting Limits Focus is Manifestation \u2013 Part 2\nRe-Think Your Legacy\nBy Richard Leider On September 21, 2018 \u00b7 Leave a Comment\nEveryone has a reason for living. Finding it is the key to a happier and longer life. Some people have found their purpose early, while others are still looking, though they carry it within them.\nHaving a clear sense of purpose \u2013 the place where gifts, passions, and values intersect \u2013 means that each day is infused with meaning. It\u2019s the reason we get up in the morning.\nIt\u2019s also the reason we, ultimately, leave a legacy. One thing is certain \u2013 all that we do pass on is all that we are. We may envision ourselves as sending one message or another, but, in the end, the only message we can send is through the life that we lead, the way that we show up.\nLeaving a Footprint in Time\n\u201cWhat am I living for?\u201d \u201cWhat matters?\u201d \u201cWhat footprint will I leave as my legacy?\u201d\nWe pose such questions at any stage of life, but in the second half of life they matter more. Wherever we walk through life, we are leaving a footprint (that others may follow) in time. It\u2019s natural, therefore, to re-think the legacy we are passing on.\nThe concept of creating an \u201cethical will\u201d is currently making a strong comeback. It has great contemporary relevance for those of us concerned with making sense of our lives and the fact of our aging.\nAn ethical will is a document, that, in contrast to a traditional will, can be anything from a letter to a memoir to an artwork, even a video that enables you to communicate to others the essence of what you see your authentic self to be.\nAn ordinary will mainly concerns the disposition of your material possessions at death. An ethical will has to do with nonmaterial gifts, passions, and values \u2013 the life lessons that you have learned and lived.\nAn ethical will can help us to synthesize the wisdom of the first half of our lives to more purposefully shape the second half. Often, it provides personal stories and messages to loved ones (and the world) about the values and beliefs you hope might catch on.\nIn a meeting with Dr. Andrew Weil, he told me that \u201can ethical will helps us discern what we will leave behind, our legacy, but just as important, it gives direction to the rest of our lives.\u201d\nWhat does an ethical will do? The answer is pretty clear \u2013 it helps you find reasons to live.\nIn his book, Healthy Aging: A Lifelong Guide to Your Physical and Spiritual Well-Being (Alfred A. Knopf Inc., 2005), Dr. Weil writes, \u201cyou can and should write an ethical will. You can choose to share it while you\u2019re alive or leave your thoughts for your loved ones to share after you\u2019re gone. Regardless of your age, an ethical will can be an exercise that makes you take stock of your life experience and distill from it the values and wisdom that you have gained. You can then put the document aside, read it over as the years pass, and revise it from time to time as you see fit. Certainly, while an ethical will can be a wonderful gift to leave for your friends and family at the end of your life, its main importance is what it can give you in the midst of life.\u201d\nYou can read Dr. Weil\u2019s ethical will in the last chapter of Healthy Aging (pp. 236-238).\nHere, then is my own ethical will. My purpose is to help others \u201cunlock their purpose.\u201d To do this, I have created my \u201cIncomplete Manifesto for Purpose.\u201d I initially wrote this for strictly personal use, summarizing my insights as they have matured over five decades.\nMy manifesto is incomplete. It\u2019s incomplete because I\u2019m a learner. The future belongs to the learners, not the knowers. I might know a lot about purpose, but I\u2019m still curious, willing to be surprised!\nMy hope is that this ethical will will help you to create yours and to \u201cunlock your purpose.\u201d\nAn ethical will reminds us how we want to live our lives. It reminds us of what we value in life and how we want to live our legacy. A quick look at our ethical will reminds us of the person that we choose to be, today.\nLetter to Live For\nIn a simple sense, an ethical will is like casting out a message in a bottle to the future, only it\u2019s one that you can live today as well.\nI encourage you to draft a short letter to someone today to write from the heart.\nWhat are you living for? What matters? What footprint do you hope to leave as your legacy?\nTagged with: finding purpose \u2022 legacy",

        "raw_content": "Building a small business is hard, and marketing on a budget can be even harder. However, nowadays, small businesses have greater access to cost-effective marketing tools. Mix that with a little innovation, and a big budget isn\u2019t necessary to market your business effectively.\n1. Speak at Seminars\nMany organisations are looking for qualified, subject-matter experts who can present to their audience. Speaking at a seminar provides publicity from both marketing the event and from the event itself. A lot of people hate public speaking though. However, the more you do it, the easier it gets. You don\u2019t have to be a pro either, as long as the information you share is helpful. Moreover, speaking at seminars places you in the position of a credible authority in your field, increasing your professional profile.\n2. Highlight Your Community Spirit\nCommunity involvement increases brand awareness and can also provide invaluable networking connections. Connections that might otherwise have not eventuated, because we tend to network within our own industries. Participate by becoming involved in activities such as volunteering, sponsoring a local sports team, or hosting a fundraiser.\n3. Business Collaborations\nGather together a group of synergistic, non-competitive businesses in your area and agree to cross-promote. Promotions can include sharing each other\u2019s coupons, website links, and so on. Or it can mean having joint promotions and sharing the cost of signage. In collaborating with each other, you are expanding your customer base to a customer base you might not otherwise reach.\n4. Become an Industry Authority on a Handful of Content Topics\nPeople Google solutions to their problems. To help them out, set up a business blog and focus on a handful (roughly 5 \u2013 7) content topics that you know well. Then, write diligently on those topics (or hire a freelance writer) and impart your knowledge to your audience. Benefits include leads capture, email subscriptions, and increased search \u201cauthority\u201d as more people visit your site and share your content.\n5. Host an Event or Workshop\nEvents and workshops are great ways to gain exposure for your business. Give away a free seminar or workshop to get people in your doors. Then, as they become popular, you can start charging a small fee \u2013 enhancing the integrity of what you are offering. Provide knowledge that you think would be useful to your target audience and utilise your collaborators as well.\n6. Create and Share Educational Videos\nSmall business owners often hesitate to create how-to videos. They fear that if they show people how they do their work, no one will hire them. Yet, often the opposite is true, and people will come to you when they realise they cannot reproduce your work. For most people though, the fact is video can be demanding and intimidating to make. However, apart from the fact that it doesn\u2019t have to be an Oscar winner, there are many small production houses around that are sure to have a package that fits your budget.\n7. Hire a Reliable Digital Marketing Agency\nA digital marketing agency is a great way to increase your digital marketing potential. Digital marketing is multi-pronged, in a constant state of flux, and complex. It is also becoming more and more vital to business\u2019 growth and success. But make sure you partner with a digital marketing agency that has people with proven, up-to-the-minute expertise in the field and an excellent track record.",

It is believed that Cannes was settled by Ligurian tribesmen. It is also thought that it was occupied successively by Phocaeans, Celts (or Gauls), and Romans. In the 4th century it came under the protection of the monks of L\u00e9rins. In the 10th century the monks had fortifications constructed under Pointe du Chevalier to guard against Muslim sea raiders. Napoleon, on the first night of his return from Elba, encamped his small army in the dunes outside the village. It was Lord Brougham who spread the fame of Cannes as an international resort. In 1834 he was prevented, by quarantine measures, from entering Nice. He stopped at the fishing village of Cannes where he subsequently built a villa. Thereafter, he returned to Cannes every winter for 34 years.\n1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Next Page >>\nLuxury apartment for sale in CannesDu Midi Beautiful apartment 127 sq.m. with a garden of 280 sq.m. The apartment includes a living area of 45 sq.m., kitchen with 2 balconies, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. There is also a garage and parking. ...\nTo have a luxury apartment in is really very prestigious. Cannes is the \"star\" of the French Riviera, famous for the International Film Festival and the glitzy hotels, cars, beaches and visitors attracted here. Although it's probably the opposite of the Beyond type villages of the \"arri\u00e9re pays\", it would be a shame to visit the South of France without experiencing the city for yourself. The city of Cannes is centered around the old port, with the central part quite compact. The famous \"Croisette\" is the boulevard and the beach that extends around the bay to the east of the port, in the protected \"Rade de Cannes\". The luxury apartments, nestled on Croisette, are particularly requested. Out around the point at the west side of the port, the Boulevard Jean Hibert runs along the coast to the west, with even more fine sandy beaches. The Rue d'Antibes is the main street running east-west through the center of the city, becoming the Rue F\u00e9lix Faure at the bottom end, past the All\u00e9e de la Libert\u00e9 and the port. The Boulevard Carnot runs north out of the city, through residential-shopping areas, to the A8 autoroute, and inland towards Grasse. Luxury apartments for sale in Cannes are all nestled across the whole city.\nThe closest thing to an \"old town\" is \"Le Suquet\" overlooking the west end of the port. Luxury apartments for sale here are all renovated offering splendid views over the surroundings. The 12th-century Tour de Mt. Chevalier, ramparts and 12th-16th-century church Notre-Dame-de-l'Esp\u00e9rence give a touch of medieval flavor to the city. The Le Suquet area has narrow streets climbing up and around the hill, with a fine view from the top. Standing on the ancient rampart wall in front of the church, you can see east across the city, the port and the bay to the Cap de la Croisette, and to the west across the Gulf of La Napoule to the Massif de l'Esterel mountains.\nLuxury apartments in Cannes area also popular due to the regions\u2019 climate. The Mediterranean climate, due to which the city enjoys mild winters and about 12 hours of sunshine per day during summer, as well as the annual \"Cannes Film Festival\" have made Cannes one of the best-known cities at the French Riviera and therefore a popular tourist destination.",

        "raw_content": "Winning into Freedom\n\"If the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed\" John 8:36\nIf there is even a trace of individual self-satisfaction left in us, it always says, \u201cI can\u2019t surrender,\u201d or \u201cI can\u2019t be free.\u201d But the spiritual part of our being never says \u201cI can\u2019t\u201d; it simply soaks up everything around it. Our spirit hungers for more and more. It is the way we are built. We are designed with a great capacity for God, but sin, our own individuality, and wrong thinking keep us from getting to Him. God delivers us from sin\u2014 we have to deliver ourselves from our individuality. This means offering our natural life to God and sacrificing it to Him, so He may transform it into spiritual life through our obedience.\nGod pays no attention to our natural individuality in the development of our spiritual life. His plan runs right through our natural life. We must see to it that we aid and assist God, and not stand against Him by saying, \u201cI can\u2019t do that.\u201d God will not discipline us; we must discipline ourselves. God will not bring our \u201carguments . . . and every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ\u201d (2 Corinthians 10:5)\u2014 we have to do it. Don\u2019t say, \u201cOh, Lord, I suffer from wandering thoughts.\u201d Don\u2019t suffer from wandering thoughts. Stop listening to the tyranny of your individual natural life and win freedom into the spiritual life.\n\u201cIf the Son makes you free . . . .\u201d Do not substitute Savior for Son in this passage. The Savior has set us free from sin, but this is the freedom that comes from being set free from myself by the Son. It is what Paul meant in Galatians 2:20 when he said, \u201cI have been crucified with Christ . . . .\u201d His individuality had been broken and his spirit had been united with his Lord; not just merged into Him, but made one with Him. \u201c. . . you shall be free indeed\u201d\u2014 free to the very core of your being; free from the inside to the outside. We tend to rely on our own energy, instead of being energized by the power that comes from identification with Jesus.",

        "raw_content": "Malmi Airport International scheduled traffic starts again at Helsinki-Malmi Airport\nAfter years of hiatus, international scheduled traffic returns to Malmi as the German operator Wiking Helikopter Service starts to fly regular helicopter traffic.\nOn 29 August 2018, the 12-seat helicopter of the German operator Wiking Helikopter Service landed at Malmi. Soon it begins crew transport flights to the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline construction site. The helicopter will take experts to the ships and back. In the first stage, there will be flight operations three times per week.\nThe same kind of traffic was last flown from Malmi in 2011 when the Danish operator Bel Air transported crew in its \u201cSpirit of Malmi Airport\u201d helicopter to and from the Nord Stream gas pipeline construction site.\nThe chairman of Friends of Malmi Airport, Mr. Timo Hyv\u00f6nen, welcomes the helicopter to Malmi. \u201cMalmi has been shown to be a logistically outstanding solution when flexible and safe operation is required. The route from Malmi to the sea is short, and even unexpected maintenance needs can be taken care of immediately.\u201d\nThe base of the helicopter will be a private hangar, as the City would not rent the main hangar for this use.\nThe continued aviation use of the airport is still an open question, and the situation is convoluted. \u201cLet\u2019s hope that the protection of the airport, now under consideration by the Ministry of the Environment, will be realized, and that the negotiations with City of Helsinki about continued aviation use proceed in good spirit. There\u2019s a strong need of the airport now and in the future\u201d, says Hyv\u00f6nen.\nA large part of the pipeline components are transported via Finland (among others, through Koverhar harbor in Hanko), and the project is of substantial economical significance to Finland too.\nWiking Helikopter Service GmbH: http://wiking-helikopter.de/en/index.php\nNord Stream 2 project: https://www.nord-stream2.com/\nPhoto: Maria-Pelagea Keurulainen (http://www.malmiairport.fi/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/helikopteri.jpg)\nThe Agusta Westland 139 helicopter of Wiking Helikopter Service arrived at Malmi Airport on Wednesday 29 August 2018. The helicopter can transport 12 passengers and crew to the pipeline-laying ships.

        "raw_content": "Organic, Grass-fed, Pastured, Free Range, Hormone-free, Antibiotic-free Meat in Winnipeg?\nFirst of all, wow - there is a whole world of meat options out there that I had no idea about 6 months ago. Frankly, I had no idea that I should even think about getting anything other than the standard meat products at all the major grocery stores. I thought I was buying premium meat by shopping at Safeway instead of Giant Tiger. Yes - I am that cheap.\nBut the more I wade into this clean eating business the more I learn and the more I learn the more I realize I need to change. But its hard to teach an old dog new tricks, I have been thinking about this for months but couldn't ever seem to get myself to actually follow-through and do something about it. But today I finally did it...........I ordered grass fed beef and pastured pork and chicken through a group of local farmers. All of it organic, hormone and antibiotic free. Yes - I am proud of myself.\nI ordered from Harvest Moon - a local Winnipeg group of farmers.\nSo why did I go and do that?\nIf you are following my blog you will know that I'm on a low-carb diet because of my blood sugar problems. And because I am fighting a case of adrenal fatigue I need to have protein regularly. What it comes down to is that because most vegetarian sources of protein are not low-carb I end up eating a fair amount of meat. So - if its one of the staples of my diet I better make sure I'm putting some quality fuel into my body. If you don't eat a lot of meat it might not be as big of an issue for you - organic produce might be where you want to spend your shopping budget.\nIn Canada, conventional beef may be given growth hormones and conventional beef, pork and poultry may be given antibiotics. Because of concerns over the toxicity of growth hormones in the body and the general antibiotic resistance us humans are developing, I have decided to try and limit my exposure to these by choosing hormone and antibiotic free beef and antibiotic free pork and chicken when I can. It is not widely available in the major grocery stores and where it is available, at some major retailers and health food stores, it is quite expensive. I noticed Super Store just started carrying a \"free\" brand of beef and pork - good for them for providing us consumers with an accessible option. But its quite expensive and given how much we go through in a month I needed to find a more affordable alternative.\nAnd I still wanted grass fed beef. Grass fed beef has a significantly better ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6, is loaded with several other minerals and vitamins and is a great source of linoleic acid, a fat that reduces the risk of cancer, obesity, diabetes and a number of immune disorders as compared to the conventional grain fed beef you will find at the supermarket.\nFinally, I am more than happy to support local farmers that are trying to use sustainable farming practices, ethically treat the animals and provide safe organic products. Its good for the economy, the environment and my health.\nAnd I really didn't have to look too hard - there are actually lots of options - you just need a computer, a search engine and the motivation to actually go through with it. And you probably need a freezer to order enough to last for a while since they generally only deliver once a month. Now I just have to wait for my delivery date, meet a truck at some community center to pick up my food and hope it tastes good. And they show up. I'll be sure to provide an update on how it all goes down................\nTahsin khan August 27, 2013 at 9:49 AM\nExcellent blog right here! I was just searching for this information for a while.Very effectively written information.\nHerryponting November 7, 2013 at 5:30 AM\nBaby's Only Organic Lactose Free is the ONLY organic milk-based formula that is intended for babies who are lactose..\nHerbscity",

        "raw_content": "Information and Communications Technology and Computer Science prepares pupils to participate in a rapidly changing world in which work and other activities are increasingly transformed by access to varied and developing technology.\nWe recognise that Computer Studies are an important tool in both the society we live in and in the process of teaching and learning. Pupils use computing tools to find, explore, analyse, exchange and present information responsibly, creatively and with discrimination. They learn how to employ ICT to enable rapid access to ideas and experiences from a wide range of sources.\nOur vision is for all teachers and learners in our school to become confident users of ICT so that they can develop the skills, knowledge and understanding which enable them to use appropriate computing resources effectively as powerful tools for teaching & learning.\nTo enable children to become autonomous, independent users of computing technologies, gaining confidence and enjoyment from their activities,\nTo develop a whole school approach to computing ensuring continuity and progression in all strands of the Computing National Curriculum,\nTo use computing technologies as a tool to support teaching, learning and management across the curriculum,\nTo provide children with opportunities to develop their computing capabilities in all areas specified by the\nCurriculum Programmes of Study,\nTo ensure computing technologies are used, when appropriate, to improve access to learning for pupils with a diverse range of individual needs, including those with SEN and disabilities,\nTo maximise the use of computing technologies in developing and maintaining links between other schools, the local community including parents and other agencies.\nParents' E-Safety\nThe internet is such an integral part of children's lives these days. It opens up so many educational and social opportunities, giving them access to, quite literally, a world of information and experiences.\nWhether on a computer at school, a laptop at home, a games console or mobile phone, children and young people are increasingly accessing the internet whenever they can and wherever they are.\nAs you would protect your child in the real world, you will want to make sure that they are safe whatever they are doing. Like learning to cross the road, online safety skills are skills for life. If your child understands the risks and can make sensible and informed choices online, they can get the most from the internet and stay safe whilst doing so \u2013 particularly from those people who might seek them out to harm them. (CEOP \u2013 Thinkyouknow)\nThis page is designed to give you more information and tools to help make your child safer online.\nHow do young people use mobile phones?\nYoung people like to use mobile phones as it increases their feeling of independence as it enables them to plan arrangements with friends and family. They can also have a lot of fun with games, ringtones and by using mobiles to take pictures. Young people can also exchange data (e.g. pictures or ringtones) wirelessly over short distances using their phone's Bluetooth technology. As mobile technology develops increasing numbers of children have access to the internet through their phones, providing them with access to their email, social networking and gaming sites on the move.\nWhat are the risks that young people encounter when using mobiles?\nApart from young people spending all their time chatting to their friends and not to you (!), there are some risks in their use of mobile technology. A large proportion of new mobile phones have web access, and more recently - mobile TV has been launched. This means that young people can access content from the internet and TV wherever they are, and without parental or teacher supervision. With the advent of picture and video messaging - young people need to be increasingly careful about the images they share. It is very easy for inappropriate images to be shared around a number of phones, changed and even put online, where it is impossible to get back. This is particularly worrying, if images are used in child abuse sites. Young people also need to be aware that they put themselves at risk of mobile bullying, or inappropriate intimate contact if they give out their mobile number to people they don't fully trust.\nHow can I reduce the risks to my children when they use their mobiles?\nThere are mobile phone operators who sell phones with filtering software included, so that children won't access inappropriate websites or content.\nIt is worth checking that your child's phone has this capability.\nRemind your child that any image they send on their mobile can be changed and shared online, and that once they have sent an image they have lost control of it. Read through the young people's website with your child, and help them to understand that they shouldn't give out personal details such as their mobile number to strangers, or other young people that they don't fully trust.\nSocial Networking and IM (Instant Messenger)\nSocial Networking websites utilise applications which help connect friends using a number of tools like blogs, profiles, internal email systems and photos. Well known sites include Facebook, Twitter etc., these have become an influential part of contemporary culture.\nInstant messaging (IM) is a form of real-time text-based communication conveyed over a network, such as the internet, between two or more people on a user's contact list. Examples include Windows Live Messenger, Jabber, ICQ and AIM. IM technologies often include additional features that make them even more popular such as having the ability to talk directly for free; to share files; or to view the other party through a webcam.\nAlthough chatting online can be great fun, young people can sometimes find themselves in situations where they can feel out of their depth. Risks can arise when young people give out their personal details to strangers. The online world can often seem very different to the real world for young people, and they can be tempted to say and do things that they wouldn't dream of if they met someone face to face. This can include giving out personal information such as mobile numbers and pictures of themselves.\nIf they are talking to another child there is a risk that they will misuse this information - for example, by texting abusive messages to the child, or by posting their image on a website; but there is obviously a greater risk if the person that they are chatting to is an adult. Young people can be naive to this risk, and often feel that they are invincible, or that 'they would know if someone was lying'.\nYoung people will often 'swap friends' through IM, and therefore can be chatting to strangers who they feel they trust because a friend of a friend knows them. IM is a very intimate form of communication - more so than a chat room with many participants, and therefore child abusers will often use this as a means to extract personal information from a young person.\nGuidance for protecting children using social networking websites.\nEncourage them only to upload pictures that you as their parents / carer would be happy to see .It is also not a good idea to post pictures which can identify the school which your child attends since this could help someone locate them.\nTell your children not to post their phone number or email address on their homepage.\nHelp your child to adjust their account settings so that only approved friends can instant message them. This won't ruin their social life \u2013 new people can still send them friend requests and message them, they just won't be able to pester them via Instant Messenger (IM).\nCheck if your child has ticked the \u201cno picture forwarding\u201d option on their social networking site settings page \u2013 this will stop people sending pictures from their page around the world without their consent\nEncourage them not to give too much away in a blog. Friends can call them for the address of the latest party rather than read about it on their site.\nAsk them to show you how to use a social networking site - getting involved will empower them to share the experience with you.\nHow can I minimise the risks to my children?\nYou can minimise the risks by taking the following simple measures with your children: It is vital that you know if your child uses chat applications online, and that you emphasise to them the importance of keeping their personal information personal.\nIf your child uses IM then it is a good idea to ask them to show you how it works\u2014in this way you can also gauge who they have on their contact list and if there is anyone how they don't know in the real world.\nIt is also a good idea to ask them if they know how to block someone who they no longer wish to talk to.\nYou can also direct them to the Thinkuknow website, where they can watch films and play games on how to stay safer online.\nConsider creating some family rules which you will all agree to on online use, including not giving out personal information, or talking to strangers without discussing it.\nRemind your children that they should never meet up with someone that they have met online without you or another adult going with them.\nhttp://www.parentscentre.gov.uk/\nhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/webwise/\nhttp://www.iwf.org.uk/\nNational Curriculum for Computing",

From the moment I arrived in Dallas, the first person to greet me at the Hyatt Hotel was not the valet driver, but none other than \"Nervous\" Nick Cramer, Content Producer for SGC. In case this is the first time you've heard of Nick or are interested in reading about more of the cast from SGC, checkout their profiles at: http://www.screwattack.com/about-us.\nAs this is the first night for registration, the number of dedicated fans present is still within the double digits - or at least when I arrived.

The Convention applies only to public documents. These are documents emanating from an authority or official connected with a court or tribunal of the State, administrative documents, notarial acts, and official certificates which are placed on documents signed by persons in their private capacity, such as official certificates recording the registration of a document or the fact that it was in existence on a certain date and official and notarial authentications of signatures.\nThe Apostille facilitates the circulation of public documents which emanate from one country party and that must be used in another one (also country party).\nSigned on October 5 1961, 111 countries are parties to the Convention so far, including Argentina. For Brazil and Morocco it entered into force on August 14, 2016.",

        "raw_content": "December 6, 2017 by Leah Drayton\nPhotographer Joseph Rodriguez\nJoseph Rodriguez\u2019s portrayal of turbulent times in the East Harlem of the \u201980s is at the Bronx Documentary Center through Dec. 23\nOn Feb. 21, 1965, 14-year-old Joseph Rodriguez witnessed a sight he would never forget. That winter evening, he boarded a Williamsburg-bound bus from Park Slope with his mother to visit his aunt. News had spread throughout New York City: Malcolm X had been shot and killed in Harlem and racial unrest swept the city when the civil rights leader was pronounced dead.\n\u201cThe whole bloody Brooklyn was on fire,\u201d recalled Rodriguez, 52 years later. \u201cAll these black men and brown men out there burning stuff down because of what was happening. You grow up with those visions in your head.\u201d\nRodriguez, now 66, has spent those years since collecting images since those were seared in his mind, recording New Yorkers\u2019 lives from Brooklyn to El Barrio. Rodriguez\u2019s latest photography show, \u201cEl Barrio in the \u201880s,\u201d is on display at the Bronx Documentary Center until Dec. 23. The show features Kodachrome images from his latest book that depicts life in East Harlem.\nBrooklyn born and raised, Rodriguez grew up as a self-described troubled teen with two visits to Riker\u2019s Island; it was a parole officer who first suggested that he pick up photography skills. At 20, he attended classes at the Brooklyn Children\u2019s Museum and began to document the neighborhoods he ventured into working as a cab driver. He started developing his film at home and then snagged an internship at the International Center of Photography in Manhattan.\n\u201cI went up to them and said \u2018Look, I\u2019ll do anything to be here,\u2019\u201d said Rodriguez, who later earned a scholarship from the center and began to work on a student project to document gentrification in East Harlem. \u201cIt changed my focus from the drug world to a new addiction \u2013 photography.\u201d\nRodriguez graduated from the center in 1985 with a certificate in documentary and photojournalism. He also earned an associate degree in applied sciences from New York City Technical College, and also studied at the School of Visual Arts. Rodriguez has taught photography internationally, and is currently a professor at New York University and at the International Center of Photography. As a photojournalist, Rodriguez has been featured in National Geographic, The New York Times, and magazines such as Esquire and Newsweek. His work has been published in 14 books and he has published more than 30 photo essays in publications worldwide.\nTo get the shots for this show, Rodriguez attended birthdays, funerals, holy communions and other intimate events \u2013 waiting for the perfect moment to capture an image.\n\u201cWhen I get off at 149th and 3rd, I\u2019m at home,\u201d said Rodriguez. \u201cI\u2019m at home because I can talk to the gente, I know what their concerns are, I know what it\u2019s like to grow up on welfare, I know what\u2019s it like to be a dope fiend.\u201d\nRodriguez describes himself as a \u201cturtle\u201d of a photographer, one who likes to wait, observe and take his pictures slowly. He often will start conversations with his subjects, visit them at home, ask them questions, before he finds the right moment to capture a photo.\n\u201cI\u2019ve spent a lot of time at kitchen tables.\u201d said Rodriguez. Listening, he said, and taking time to learn about subjects is what makes a good photo. \u201cThrough photography, I learned how to do things more slowly. Time is very important.\u201d\nOne of his favorite instances was taking a portrait of a yoga teacher who taught meditation at Bridges Juvenile Justice Center, the former detention center colloquially known as \u201cSpofford,\u201d in Hunts Point. He had been to many juvenile centers to take pictures before, eventually producing the 2004 book \u201cJuvenile,\u201d but Rodriguez said Spofford was so controversial he couldn\u2019t get permission to visit with his camera. So he opted to picture the yoga teacher in the middle of 149th Street, holding a lotus position.\n\u201cI always loved the work that he brought in,\u201d said Michael Kamber, the founder and director of the Bronx Documentary Center in Mott Haven and a professional photo journalist himself. \u201dIt was one of the most intimate and in-depth looks at a community.\u201d\nKamber couldn\u2019t recall whether he or Rodriguez first suggested featuring the East Harlem pictures in a show; they speak often, and worked together as photojournalists in Haiti in the 1990s and later, Afghanistan in 2001.\nAccording to Kamber, the educational elements for this show will focus on teaching students about housing, disinvestment in the \u201870s, and gentrification. Conversations about the art will be tailored for the hundreds of students who visit the center each semester.\nAs a teacher and mentor, Rodriguez says he\u2019s very happy that students will be exposed to images of the 1980s in their neighborhoods.\n\u201cIt\u2019s about our kids,\u201d said Rodriguez. \u201cThis show is not about my ego, or how great I am or how great the photos are. It is about what this individual did, who grew up similar to the way they are growing up, with all the difficulties. I want them to say, \u2018That guy\u2019s last name is Rodriguez, that guy went to Riker\u2019s Island. But you know what? That guy changed something.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cEl Barrio in the \u201880s\u201d will be on display at the Bronx Documentary Center until Dec. 23. The Bronx Documentary Center is open from 3 to 7 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, and 1 to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The center is located at 614 Courtlandt Ave. Admission is free.\nTags: Bronx Documentary Center, El Barrio in the '80s, Joseph Rodriguez",

        "raw_content": "Five Days by Douglas Kennedy - BOOK REVIEW\nYou would be totally forgiven for thinking that I only ever read business books but fiction is one of my favourite things to read. I haven\u2019t read a lot of fiction in the last two years because I was building my business up and definitely wanted to take advantage of all my free time to up my business knowledge.\nI bought this book on kindle almost a year ago but wasn\u2019t ensnared from the start so I stopped reading after the first chapter and had to restart reading it this time around.\nI love Douglas Kennedy. He\u2019s one of my favourite authors, however, this book is not one of his best. Firstly, because I hate simple love stories and the only thing propelling me through most of this book was the knowledge that this love story would get more complicated at some point. I love complex stories.\nIf anyone other than Douglas Kennedy had written this book I would not have finished it but I\u2019m trying to maintain my record of having read every single one of his books \u2013 the majority of which are awesome.\nUp until the 75-80% of the book I thought the simplicity of the love story very much mirrored a Mills and Boon. The only thing different was that it was well written and the vocabulary used was a few notches up. After that it did get very good and incorporated the kind of complication and drama that I like but I wish the ending was a bit different. I wish Richard had developed a pair of balls and that is all I am going to say to avoid the spoiling the story for you should you decide to read it.\nAnyhow, despite my dissatisfaction with the end I have to agree that it was a better ending for a mature love story and anything else would have been too Mills & Boon.",

        "title": "Franz BARDON - New Forest Centre",
        "raw_content": "FRANZ BARDON (1909-1958)\n...quite possibly the greatest Hermetic teacher of all times, was born on December 1, 1909, in the current Czech Republic. His father, Vickor Bardon, was a student of esoteric Christianity. In 1924, the spirit of a high Hermetic adept entered the body of fourteen-year-old Franz. His personality changed dramatically and with great suddenness; in time Franz Bardon became one of the most remarkable Hermetic magicians of the 20th century.\nTaking the stage name of Frabato, Franz Bardon often performed throughout Europe as a stage magician--- although little did audiences suspect that Bardon's \"tricks\" were, in fact, quite real. But for the most part, Franz Bardon lived a seemingly ordinary life as an industrial mechanic in Opava, though he was certainly regarded there as the \"local sage.\"\nLike other workers for the Light, Franz Bardon attracted the attention of Adolph Hitler. Hitler, a dark occult practitioner, attempted to entice Franz Bardon to assist him in winning WWII. After Bardon's refusal, he was incarcerated in a concentration camp for three and a half months. In 1945, shortly before the war ended, Bardon was sentenced to death. Before the sentence could be carried out, however, the prison where Franz Bardon was being held was bombed. Bardon was rescued from the badly damaged building by some Russian soldiers, and succeeded in finding his way back home.\nAfter the war, Franz Bardon lived a quiet life in Opava, working as a naturopath and graphologist. He often traveled to Prague to teach. Franz Bardon's teachings formed the basis of his 3 masterpieces on Hermeticism: Initiation into Hermetics, The Practice of Magical Evocation, and The Key to the True Kabbalah.\nFranz Bardon\u2019s Hermetic work was interrupted forever in 1958, when he was arrested during one of Czechoslovakia\u2019s notorious \"Communist purges.\" Bardon was falsely accused of not paying taxes on alcohol used in the production of his spagyric remedies. He was further accused of treason for allegedly making unfavorable comments about his country in a letter to Australia.\nOn July 10, 1958, Franz Bardon died under \"unusual circumstances\" in a prison hospital in Brno, Czechoslovakia.\nDEDICATED WEBSITES 2013:\nhttp://www.franzbardon.com/index.html\nhttp://www.abardoncompanion.de/\nhttp://angelmessages.paradisenow.net/bardon_s_books.html\nhttp://www.jwmt.org/v1n2/bardon.html\nTHE 3 BARDON MASTERPIECES:\ninitiation_into_hermetics.pdf\npractice_of_magical_evocation.pdf\nkey_to_the_true_qabala.pdf\nTHE UNOFFICIAL FOURTH & 5th:\nfrabato_the_magician.pdf\n04_golden_book_of_wisdom_-_f_bardon.pdf\nMISC.

        "raw_content": "Erykah Badu on Covering Drake, Duetting With Andr\u00e9 3000, Her New Mixtape\nOn a quiet side street in Brooklyn\u2019s Fort Greene neighborhood \u2014 a few short blocks from the Barclays Center, and right above a natural-hair salon \u2014 is the low-rise red-brick building where Erykah Badu has lived on and off since the mid-Nineties. Walk up to the second floor and follow the vintage funk beats down a narrow carpeted corridor, and you\u2019ll find her place: a cozy two-bedroom artist\u2019s pad that radiates warmth and soul. \u201cYou can sit over there,\u201d says the singer, gesturing at a futon in one corner of her living room after her younger sister and assistant lets me in. \u201cI don\u2019t have a lot of chairs.\u201d\nAndre 3000 Talks New Music, Erykah Badu \u2018Hello\u2019 Duet \u00bb\nFor nearly 20 years, Badu has been one of R&B\u2019s boldest innovators \u2014 a hippie dreamer, Earth goddess, Afrofuturist seer, proud mama and occasional pop star. Her whole history is here in this room, where a king mattress occupies much of the floor, next to an orange Fender electric guitar, a waist-high ankh sculpture and an ancient-looking four-track recording console. Colorful fabric hangings, psychedelic album art, painted portraits of Badu and dorm-style posters of Bruce Lee and a toking Bob Marley decorate every inch of the walls. \u201cAndr\u00e9 3000 drew this,\u201d she says, pointing to an Afroed angel sketched directly onto one wall in pink and blue pastels, next to the word \u201cSeven\u201d \u2014 the name of her 18-year-old son with the Outkast musician, whom she dated in the late Nineties. \u201cAll of my babies have toddled through here over the years. I try to keep it dusted.\u201d She shrugs. \u201cSometimes I can\u2019t.\u201d\nSitting cross-legged on a purple-and-gold floor pillow, her famous olive-green eyes glittering from beneath the brim of a gray felt fedora, Badu appears completely at home. In fact, her primary residence is in her native Dallas, where the 44-year-old singer lives with Seven and her two daughters, 11-year-old Puma (whose father is gangsta-rap pioneer the D.O.C.) and six-year-old Mars (whose father is mystical-minded Jay Z prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Jay Electronica). This place, she explains, is where she comes when she needs to unplug. \u201cI don\u2019t go outside at all when I\u2019m here,\u201d she says between bites of kale salad. \u201cParty of one. I stay in with the shades down; I don\u2019t want to know what time it is. I just want to be naked and create. It\u2019s a recalibrator machine.\u201d\n\u201c\u2026 Here\u2019s \u2018Tyrone,\u2019 this private joke between me and God \u2014 and that\u2019s the one I\u2019m known for,\u201d says Badu of her signature song. Jakubaszek/Getty\nBy any measure, Badu is in the middle of a creative hot streak right now. The night before we meet, she played a sold-out show at Brooklyn\u2019s opulent Kings Theatre to celebrate the Thanksgiving-weekend release of But You Caint Use My Phone, her delightfully clever new 11-track mixtape themed around love in the smartphone age. The day before the show, she was back in Dallas, assisting in a woman\u2019s home birth as part of her second life as a certified doula. \u201cI didn\u2019t sleep at all,\u201d she says happily.\nIn addition to touring eight months out of the year, Badu is constantly making music; she estimates she has hundreds of unreleased songs, many of them recorded since her last proper studio LP in 2010. But lately, she says, she\u2019s found it challenging to assemble an album that she\u2019s comfortable sharing with the world. \u201cYou start to think that you\u2019re not creative anymore, because you have a deadline and you can\u2019t think of anything. But you can\u2019t force it. It\u2019s like a baby: Only when it\u2019s fully developed can it come.\u201d\nBut You Caint Use My Phone was her way of sidestepping that block. It started when she was driving Seven to school in Dallas one morning, listening to new music on SoundCloud. \u201cThe music that\u2019s in fashion isn\u2019t necessarily what\u2019s appealing to me,\u201d she says. \u201cAs much as I admire the voice of my son\u2019s generation, I don\u2019t embody it.\u201d But something about Drake\u2019s \u201cHotline Bling\u201d connected with her, and she decided to cover it with help from a 23-year-old local producer named Zach Witness, stretching the song out to a spacey seven minutes and adding a new chorus melody suggested by Seven. Within days, she had posted the song online with a brief, tantalizing message for her patient fans, promising an upcoming mixtape called But You Caint Use My Phone.\nNo such mixtape existed at that point, nor was there any clear plan for one. \u201cBut I knew it was going to be ill,\u201d Badu says with a knowing smile. \u201cWe had this frequency vibrating around us.\u201d Writing things down to conjure them into existence is a practice she\u2019s kept ever since penciling the thought \u201cI am an artist, I will do good in the world\u201d onto a pink sheet of paper as a 10-year-old in Dallas. \u201cSpelling is a spell,\u201d she says. \u201cEverything we write down happens.\u201d\nThe name of the then-imaginary mixtape came from a lyric in 1997\u2019s \u201cTyrone,\u201d her signature fed-up anthem, which Badu remembers as an early lesson in the power of serendipity. \u201cI freestyled that song,\u201d she says with a laugh. \u201cWe were just joking around. I wrote all these other songs that took so much time and effort, thinking, \u2018John Lennon will be proud of this one.\u2019 And then here\u2019s \u2018Tyrone,\u2019 this private joke between me and God \u2014 and that\u2019s the one I\u2019m known for.\u201d\nErykah Badu performing in 1997. \u201cI could start a cult if I wanted to,\u201d she says. \u201cBut I\u2019d rather remind people that they are who they are, and their thoughts are their thoughts.\u201d Tim Mosenfelder/Getty\nBadu\u2019s version of \u201cHotline Bling\u201d quickly racked up plays on SoundCloud and YouTube. All that was left was actually making the mixtape, which she did in roughly 11 days, recording funked-up covers and originals at her home studio and at Witness\u2019 parents\u2019 place. \u201cWe were scrambling to make sure we kept our word,\u201d she says. \u201cWe had to be kind of quiet, because Zach\u2019s mom didn\u2019t want us to make too much noise.\u201d She recorded some of her vocals directly into the Voice Memos app on her iPhone, a departure from her usual methods, which involve yards of two-inch tape. \u201cI always considered myself an analog girl,\u201d she says, \u201cbut I\u2019m moving and floating and swimming so well in this digital world.\u201d\nDrake is a good friend of Badu\u2019s \u2014 he memorably rapped about dropping by her house in Dallas for tea and romantic advice on 2014\u2019s \u201cDays in the East\u201d \u2014 but he does not appear on But You Caint Use My Phone. Instead, she recruited an unknown Atlanta rapper named Aubrey Davis, whose flow closely resembles Drake with a nasty head cold, to rap on two songs. Many listeners were tricked into confusing the two MCs. \u201cDrake thought it was funny,\u201d Badu says. \u201cHe texted me: \u2018You\u2019d better stop letting these young cats come over and take up my tea time!'\u201d\nOne of the last songs to come together was \u201cHello,\u201d a tender duet with her ex Andr\u00e9 3000 \u2014 their first on-record collaboration since Outkast\u2019s 2000 album cut \u201cHumble Mumble,\u201d which was released shortly after the end of their romantic involvement. The two artists\u2019 long-past relationship has taken on mythic qualities for many fans; hearing their voices in harmony again feels right in the way it might have if Joni Mitchell and Graham Nash had made a new love song 20 years after \u201cOur House.\u201d Badu says the musical reunion was only natural now that Andr\u00e9 lives in Dallas, where he moved some time ago to be closer to their son and her. \u201cWe\u2019re together all the time, at least three days a week,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019m a really big fan of his, always been. I\u2019m always anxious to impress him.\u201d\nAndr\u00e9 began his contributions to the track while she was out of town, laying down a characteristically adept rap verse about sex and commitment (\u201cDon\u2019t need shit on the side no more, all entree, fuck a salad\u201d) over an instrumental she\u2019d made with Witness interpolating the Isley Brothers\u2019 version of Todd Rundgren\u2019s \u201cHello It\u2019s Me.\u201d \u201cHe sent me the verse, and it was magic,\u201d Badu says. \u201cI thought that was going to be it.\u201d A week or two later, Andr\u00e9 suggested that they try singing the Isleys tune together themselves to close out the song. \u201cWe were in my living room, and Andr\u00e9 was like, \u2018Are we going to finish this?\u2019 I said, \u2018What do you mean? I can\u2019t go after that!\u2019 But we decided to go further with it. We stayed up until five in the morning.\u201d\nEven in the long years when they weren\u2019t directly collaborating, Badu and Andr\u00e9 have maintained an ongoing musical dialogue of sorts. \u201cAfter he did The Love Below, I felt like, \u2018Well, shit! There\u2019s nothing else for me to do. He did everything,'\u201d she says of his 2003 LP with Outkast. \u201cAt the same time, he\u2019s not in a race to do anything \u2014 that\u2019s something we have in common. I don\u2019t feel like there\u2019s a certain time when you\u2019re supposed to put something out. The cards are definitely in my favor and in our favor right now, and I don\u2019t take it for granted. It doesn\u2019t have to be that way.\u201d\nA photo posted by THE UNICORN (@erykahbadu) on Dec 14, 2015 at 10:25am PST\nBadu remains similarly close with the exes who fathered her other two kids. \u201cIf it\u2019s real, it\u2019s real,\u201d she says. \u201cAnd those friendships are very real. They were all mini-marriages of sorts \u2014 the only difference is I didn\u2019t go to Vegas to get married.\u201d She says she still dreams of settling down for good with someone, someday: \u201cI\u2019d love to. That would be my next project. The goal is always forever, isn\u2019t it?\u201d\nIn other ways, she\u2019s a deeply rooted nonconformist. Like many hip-hop and R&B artists who came of age in the Eighties and Nineties, Badu is fond of the teachings of Clarence 13X, the late leader of the esoteric Nation of Islam offshoot known as the Five-Percent Nation. \u201cEighty-five percent of the people are deaf, dumb and blind,\u201d she says, reciting the group\u2019s foundational theory of society. \u201cTen percent of the people profit off their ignorance, and five percent of the people are watching from an observation deck.\u201d\nAt her show in Brooklyn the previous night, she shared some wisdom of her own from the stage \u2014 \u201cFreedom is coming, for the slaves and the slave masters\u2009\u2026 evolution happens with or without your permission\u201d \u2014 and asked the audience to hold their hands up, palms facing outward, for a moment of communal energy. \u201cCould you feel it?

Some Players Like That.\nSeptember 14, 2018 Baseball, Sports\nCategory: Baseball,Sports\nBefore the start of a half-inning, Yankees first baseman Greg Bird routinely ends up with the infielders\u2019 warm-up ball and a decision that has become a lot more complicated lately: Which fan will get a souvenir, and how? A soft toss to a child near the dugout is no longer an option.\nThat moment of connection between fan and player, one of baseball\u2019s cherished rituals, has been disrupted by the expanded protective netting now in all 30 major league parks.\n\u201cThe nets, they really just throw a wrinkle in it,\u201d Bird said. \u201cThe people closest to you are harder to get the ball to. I get super nervous trying to throw it over those nets, especially if the kid\u2019s in the first couple of rows. The net kind of angles, so you can get it over to them, but it just looks weird.\u201d\nHe had no complaints, though. Nor did the more than a dozen other players interviewed for this article, who all praised the changes in the safety netting, which as of this season stretches to at least the far end of every dugout. (Some teams, including the Mets and the Yankees, have extended their netting down the outfield lines.)\nThe players had seen too many fans, including young children, hit by screaming foul balls and flying broken bats over the last few years. So they welcomed the change and gladly adapted their methods of distributing souvenir balls. Some even relished the challenge.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of strategy,\u201d Bird said with a smile, using air quotes on the word \u201cstrategy.\u201d\nThere are at least 17 inning-ending, final-out balls to be handed out at every game, not to mention the ones used in warm-ups. When protective screens covered only the area behind home plate, players flipped a large share of the balls right above the dugout, a premium seating area.\nDiamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt said he used to roll the ball across the dugout roof to a first-row resident at home games, but now he walks to the far right edge of the team\u2019s third-base dugout, where the netting ends.\nSome players seek gaps in the netting, learning the variations in each stadium. Young fans learn, too, often running over to the openings between innings.\nPlayers also loop the ball over the netting, giving fans farther back a shot. The result, players say, is a democratization in the distribution of souvenirs.\n\u201cIt\u2019s just spreading the love now,\u201d Andrew Romine, a utility player for the Seattle Mariners, said. \u201cNow the people a little bit farther back can get a ball between innings.\u201d\nThe over-the-netting method also takes some pressure off players to choose a recipient.\n\u201cActually it\u2019s pretty cool \u2014 you just launch it up,\u201d Red Sox first baseman Steve Pearce said earlier this season, when he was still with the Blue Jays. \u201cNow you\u2019re not singling out a single person. Now it\u2019s like: \u2018You guys want a ball? Here you go.\u2019 \u201d\n\u201cYou don\u2019t look like the bad guy,\u201d he added. \u201c \u2018Pearce, why didn\u2019t you throw it to me?\u2019 \u2018I tried. That guy jumped in front of you. I can\u2019t help it.\u2019\u201d\nMets first baseman Dominic Smith echoed that sentiment, even if he usually abdicates the responsibility.\n\u201cTo be honest, I hate having the ball at the end of the inning,\u201d Smith said. \u201cWhen I\u2019m playing first, I toss it to another infielder. I just don\u2019t like the pressure of letting some fan down. But if I do toss it to the stands, I look for the smallest person, the youngest kid, in the stands. Or whoever\u2019s screaming the most. But mainly I look for the kids.\u201d\nMariners first baseman Ryon Healy said he still tried to aim for certain fans, usually the ones who lobby politely.\n\u201cI like to find kids that aren\u2019t begging so much or yelling as much,\u201d he said, comparing the situation to the \u201cFinding Nemo\u201d scene \u201cwhere the sea gulls are yelling: \u2018Mine! Mine!\u2019 It\u2019s literally that.\u201d\nWhen Rob Manfred, the commissioner of Major League Baseball, released a statement on Dec. 9, 2015, encouraging all clubs to install additional netting after a series of fan injuries that season, he acknowledged a \u201cdesire to preserve the interactive pregame and in-game fan experience that often centers around the dugouts, where fans can catch foul balls, see their favorite players up close and, if they are lucky, catch a tossed ball or other souvenir.\u201d\nWhile first basemen generally give away the warm-up balls, teams have varying rituals for the final-out balls. On third outs in the Yankees\u2019 infield, Bird and his fellow first baseman Tyler Austin give shortstop Didi Gregorius the honor, throwing the ball to him as he returns to the dugout. Gregorius said he did not target specific fans, instead randomly throwing the ball into the stands.\nMost of the players said they looked for children first. (They all bemoaned the instances when adults intercepted throws headed to children.) As a second option, they look for a fan supporting their team. And, third, they look for gloves.\nEven though the netting minimizes the chance of grabbing a foul, fans have more incentive than ever to come equipped to catch a souvenir because players worry about the hazards of throwing baseballs high over nets to barehanded fans.\n\u201cSometimes the kid\u2019s got his glove up, and I\u2019ll hit it,\u201d Bird said. \u201cThat\u2019s what I\u2019m shooting for always, like \u2018Sandlot\u2019: Just put your glove in the air, and I\u2019ll take care of the rest,\u201d he added, paraphrasing a line from the 1993 movie.\nThe Giants\u2019 Buster Posey, who as a catcher and first baseman gains possession of many third-out balls, said he tried to make eye contact with a fan before throwing the ball over. He doesn\u2019t want it coming down \u201con somebody who isn\u2019t paying attention,\u201d he said, adding that fans in the first few rows behind the net \u201ccan\u2019t be asking for a ball as vehemently as they were in previous years\u201d because of the awkward angle of the requisite throw.\nA couple of players acknowledged a few pranks \u2014 intended in good fun \u2014 in which they threw the ball into the netting directly in front of fans, who react as if they are about to catch a ball that instead is swallowed by the twine.\nOne thing hasn\u2019t changed with the expansion of screens: the understanding that every ball can be someone else\u2019s treasure.\n\u201cIt\u2019s cool when there\u2019s a kid there or a dad with his son,\u201d Goldschmidt said. \u201cYou give them the ball, and they give you a \u2018thank you\u2019 and you know the appreciation of the smile or the high-five. We all remember when we were those kids and got to go to games. If we had gotten a foul ball, it would have made our year. It\u2019s pretty cool that something I get to do all the time can make someone\u2019s day. That\u2019s something I don\u2019t want to forget.\u201d\nTossing a Baseball to Fans Isn\u2019t So Simple Anymore. Some Players Like That. Reviewed by Admin on September 14, 2018 Rating: 5",

        "raw_content": "The Hebrew Academy of Morris County is being renamed \u201cGottesman RTW Academy,\u201d in recognition of a $15 million challenge gift from its leading benefactors, Paula and Jerry Gottesman of Morristown, and in tribute to the school\u2019s founding families: Rubenstein, Turner, and Wertheimer.\nThe naming gift is one of the largest for any Jewish day school in North America, and marks the second time a Jewish day school in Greater MetroWest has been named with a $15 million gift.\nIn a ground-breaking ceremony March 2, Jerry Gottesman announced the new name to a crowd of about 300 that included members of school families, alumni and alumni parents, grandparents, community leaders, and friends.\nThe ceremony marked the official launch of a $23 million capital and endowment campaign, known as \u201cOur Future Together,\u201d which will include a new building and expanded endowments dedicated to academic excellence and affordability.\nThe new school building, with construction scheduled to begin in the spring, will be constructed on five acres of land that the school recently purchased adjacent to its current property at 146 Dover Chester Rd. in Randolph. The current building will be razed.\nThe Gottesman gift includes $8 million in up-front support and $7 million in matching funds toward gifts from other donors. Propelled by the Gottesman gift, the campaign aims to raise a total of $18 million toward the new facility, and $5 million toward growing the school\u2019s endowments.\n\u201cWe are proud that two of our Jewish day schools have set a very high bar for our community and for the nation through truly extraordinary and transformative naming gifts,\u201d said Max L. Kleinman, executive vice president/CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ. \u201cPaula and Jerry Gottesman have shown unrelenting devotion to the Hebrew Academy for decades. They bring great honor to the school with their name, and the initials of the founding families.\u201d\nThe school is a beneficiary agency of the GMW federation.\nJerry Gottesman noted that he and Paula wanted to ensure that the legacy of the founding families would not be forgotten. The \u201cR\u201d in RTW is for the late Michael Rubenstein, who steered the school throughout its early years despite the fact that his own children were too old to attend; the \u201cT\u201d is for the late Alvin Turner, and the \u201cW\u201d is for Morton and the late Beatsy Wertheimer. \u201cAlvin and Morty had day jobs as dentists, but their true passion was Jewish education,\u201d said Jerry Gottesman.\nThe school, now with about 200 students from preschool through grade eight, opened in 1967 with 18 students in basement classrooms at Morristown Jewish Center. In 2006 it changed its affiliation from the Conservative movement\u2019s Solomon Schechter Day School Association to Ravsak, an umbrella organization for nondenominational community day schools.\n\u201cIn 1975, when Paula and I moved to Morris County, we did not envision how important Jewish day schools would become to us and to the entire American-Jewish community,\u201d Gottesman said. \u201cWe have been truly enriched by our involvement in and support of Jewish day school education in general, and our Hebrew Academy in particular.\u201d\nSteve Levy, who is chairing the Our Future Together campaign with his wife, Beena, noted that while the Gottesmans\u2019 philanthropy has stretched across the Jewish community and beyond, the couple has rarely agreed to put their own name on a project or program. \u201cWe are deeply honored that, because of their depth of commitment to this school, Paula and Jerry agreed to let the school bear their name,\u201d Levy said. \u201cWe will carry it well into the future.\u201d\nThe new school building will include a permanent tribute to Nathan Bohrer and Abraham Kaufman, whose names are incorporated into the school\u2019s current official name, and the Bohrer family. The Bohrers were the leading benefactors of the current structure, built in 1980. \u201cWe want to show respect and honor the contribution of the Bohrer family toward the school\u2019s development as we move to a new chapter in our school\u2019s history,\u201d said board of trustees president Jonathan Ramsfelder.\nThe former Solomon Schechter Day School of Essex and Union in West Orange was renamed Golda Och Academy in 2010 through a $15 million challenge gift from the Jane and Daniel Och Family Foundation, made in memory of Daniel Och\u2019s mother, Golda, a school founder.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Cursing and Swearing: The Carter Method\nSuicide\u2019s Shadow Is Long \u00bb\nYears ago, I volunteered in the mental health clinic at Healthcare for the Homeless. At that time, the clinic was located in a crumbling, barely habitable house near downtown Albuquerque. The place was uncomfortably warm year-round, which magnified the smell of the place by a factor of ten, at least.\nThe odor of that place was one of forgotten humanity \u2013 unwashed people in their unwashed clothes with their unwashed belongings in tow. The reek of cigarette smoke drifted from the folds of their clothing. I learned, by a system of surreptitious glance-and-sniff, to know if a client was addicted to alcohol, heroin, meth, crack, a combination, or nothing at all (approximately 15% of the clients were, simply, severely mentally ill, with no co-morbid addiction).\nThey came to the clinic with an astonishing array of medical issues beyond mental illnesses and addictions. Chronic illnesses like diabetes are virtually impossible to manage on the streets. A minor infection can become gangrenous in a short time when people live with limited access to basic sanitary facilities. A simple case of the flu is likely to become pneumonia when a person is living rough.\nUnderfunded and understaffed, the people at the clinic did everything they could for their clients. It was mostly a hopeless task. A receptionist, a nurse, four counselors, and a handful of volunteers can\u2019t do a whole hell of a lot in the face of the vast needs among the many people who need help. A few people got stabilized on their medicines and tried to get clean, but more often they continued to decline, living on the streets and cycling in and out of jail, detox centers, and psychiatric hospitals.\nI should have hated it. I mean, my God, writing about it now, it sounds so depressing. In fact, though, I looked forward to my time there. I spent most of my time with the clients, going out to lunch and driving them to their appointments. The counselors would give me Wal-Mart gift cards and send me off with 2 or 3 clients to buy socks, underwear, and toiletries.\nWe had fun. I got to know them, the people they were, underneath the illnesses that ravaged their bodies and their lives. I grieved for them when they died, which wasn\u2019t uncommon. Cause of death was usually overdose or suicide, but there were a few murders (people living with mental illness, out on the streets, and addicted to drugs to boot, are easy targets for violence) and several deaths due to illness or infection. Sometimes, I made sad phone calls to a family member, phone calls that were never a surprise.\nOne client, I\u2019ll call him Hector, died of a heroin overdose. The staff at the clinic knew he was struggling with delusions and hallucinations, knew that he was using more and more heroin to cope with his rapidly disintegrating hold on reality, but they were helpless to do anything for him. So, in a skeevy hotel room, Hector injected himself one too many times and died there, alone.\nAt least once a day, one or more of the clients\u2019 family members called to check on someone they loved \u2013 a son or daughter, parent, spouse, or sibling. I was in the office a few hours after we heard the news about Hector when the phone rang. The brand new receptionist answered the phone. It was Hector\u2019s mother, calling to find out how he was doing.\n\u201cOh, Hector?\u201d the receptionist said into the phone, \u201cYeah, hang on a second. I\u2019m pretty sure he\u2019s dead.\u201d\nJust that. With those words, a woman found out that her boy was gone. I sat with her the next day and she reminisced about her son; how joyful his birth had been, how she baked his birthday cakes and helped him with his homework. She described how unbearably painful life became when schizophrenia entered their lives when Hector was a young adult, and how shocked she was to discover how little help there was for him. She told me about the years of anguished resignation she and her family had endured, knowing that Hector was existing in the most precarious of ways, but lacking the resources to do anything for him.\nTo that new receptionist, Hector wasn\u2019t a person with a mother. He was an anonymous, smelly, scary man who talked to people she couldn\u2019t see and had a habit of rubbing at the left side of his jaw until it was raw. (Soon thereafter, she found herself jobless.)\nCulturally speaking, the receptionist\u2019s attitude was typical. If that was not so, Jared Lee Loughner might not have had the chance to shoot 20 people, 6 of whom died, in Arizona last week.\nI\u2019ve heard, in some dozen or more news reports, that Jared Lee Loughner \u201cfell through the cracks\u201d of our nation\u2019s mental health care system. I laughed aloud, but bitterly, the first time I heard it. Cracks?\nCracks?\nThere are no cracks in our mental health care system, because we barely have a system at all. Brian and I have every advantage in navigating the mental health care system. We are college educated; have no cultural or language barriers; live in a moderately large city; own reliable transportation; have the best health insurance; and we are, relatively speaking, mentally healthy. And still, even with all of that, we struggle mightily to get appropriate care for Carter. In some cases, the care he needs doesn\u2019t exist at all.\nIn the shrill conversation that\u2019s ensued since Jared Lee Loughner opened fire, we\u2019ve heard again and again, \u201cHow could this happen?\u201d How do we, who are living at the whims of the mental health care system, get the point across that this is typical. People who need care, especially the most desperate, don\u2019t get it. The difference here is that Jared Lee Loughner didn\u2019t just hurt himself and his family; he hurt strangers, \u201cnormal\u201d people, \u201cinnocent\u201d people.\nI\u2019m having a hard time with the fact that the death of \u201cnormal\u201d people is what it took to get this issue onto the public agenda.\nJared Lee Loughner is our nightmare, lurking as one of several terrible possibilities on our horizon. The fact is that Carter\u2019s illness is difficult to manage, and when he\u2019s an adult (and even before; in NM, a 16 year old can refuse medications without parental consent), I can\u2019t compel him to get treatment. His future is up for grabs.\nDear God, save me from the anguish that Jared Lee Loughner\u2019s parents are feeling now.\nI hate that people were hurt. I hate that people were killed. They are very far from the first casualties of our cultural ambiguity about people with mental illness, though. Far from it. People die of mental illness everyday. The bottom line seems to be, we don\u2019t want to deal with \u201cthose\u201d people, the ones who are weird and unpredictable and seem so unlike the rest of us. For generations, we locked them up in appalling, shameful institutions. Then, in that uniquely US American way, we threw the baby out with the bathwater and shut almost all of those institutions down and replaced them with\u2026\nThere were promises of community healthcare, but they have never been fulfilled, especially for the very sickest of people, the people suffering from schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, and severe depression. And, of course, people with fewer resources have less access to care.\nMillions of people with mental illness could live satisfying, productive lives with appropriate support, and those who are too ill for such lives could at least be safe and comfortable in appropriate institutional care that protects their human dignity.\nInstead, they are left to live or die in jails and prisons or on the streets. People with mental illness are rarely violent; I feel comfortable calling Jared Lee Loughner a tragic one-off, but that doesn\u2019t mean the wholesale abandonment of our neediest citizens is OK. To say that this issue only matters because of the 20 people who were shot is to say that people who suffer from mental illness don\u2019t matter. If you believe that, I suggest you not say it in my presence.\nAs you\u2019ve heard me say before, there are no disposable people.\nOr, if you prefer, from a person much wiser then me, \u201cdo unto other as you would have them do unto you.\u201d\nAdrienne Pontificates, Health Care, Leading With My Chin, Pediatric Mental Illness Jared Lee Loughner, mental illness, things that make me want to move to a different country, try to imagine that you are Jared Lee Loughner's parent\n23 comments to Do Unto Others\nI really liked reading this.

(I\u2019ve been reading your blog/Twitter for a little while).\nWe have no mental healthcare. Unless you count jail (or jail like facilities). I spent a few months volunteering at a minimal security county jail, working with the guys. One kid was only 17, was in jail for drug possession. He carved messages into his skin, rarely talked, and couldn\u2019t focus. Other guys purposely did minor crimes because they were medicated in jail, and couldn\u2019t afford medication on the outside.\nI have bad eyes. Technically, I\u2019m physically deficient. But it\u2019s also normal. I can wear glasses without feeling ashamed. I can talk about going to the eye doctor and not worry about being fired, judged, or isolated.

There\u2019s no reason to be ashamed, and especially not because you seek out treatment.\nThis weblog is being featured on Five Star Friday: http://www.schmutzie.com/fivestarfriday/2011/1/14/five-star-fridays-134th-edition-is-brought-to-you-by-flann-o.html\nThe mentally ill in our society don\u2019t get the care they need unless they have committed family who also have the financial and educational resources to get them the help they need\u2026and even then, there are people who run out of steam, run out of money, run out of time and their kids get lost anyway.

I\u2019ve been reading your blog for a while now and I\u2019m ashamed to admit that had I not been reading your blog and seeing the other side, the side that is familiar with mental illness, I\u2019m not sure that I would have recognized the media\u2019s one sided view that Jared slipped through the cracks. And for that I thank you. Thank you for opening my eyes to the truth and not what the media portrays.\nJust so glad you are back blogging.\nYou bring clarity and scrutiny on this subject like no other can.\nI was thinking of you today\u2026.I had a blog post in mind & was going to ask for your input on it when it was done. But, here I am in your comments instead. \ud83d\ude42\nI was driving in to work and caught part of an interview on the radio with a woman discussing the shootings & mental health care. She was speaking about how there really is nothing that can be done for adults that are mentally ill but not legally considered \u201cdangerous\u201d to themselves or others. She was saying that she believes the rules lean too far toward individual rights for the mentally ill\u2026in the sense that they can\u2019t be compelled to seek treatment.\nI\u2019m not sure how I feel about that. Particularly in light of what you\u2019ve said here, if we were to make treatment of mental illness compulsory, where would these people go for said treatment?\nAnd I kind of got the impression from her tone that she didn\u2019t really see these people as *people* but as liabilities. I feel uneasy about the idea of forcing treatment on anyone.\nShould it be available? Yes. Should it be forced? In general? I think no. I see that as a slippery slope\u2026and also kind of encouraging the idea that the mentally ill are somehow a lesser class to whom different rules of humanity apply.\nAt what point am I going to be forced to seek treatment/take medication/etc because I\u2019m overweight? Making treatment available is not the same as making it compulsory, IMO. I think taking away the freedom of choice is dangerous.\nI\u2019m very interested in your thoughts on the subject.\nWTH am I Doing recently posted..Feeling Cantankerous\nHmmm\u2026how to organize my thoughts and write them down in fewer than 2000 words. \ud83d\ude09\nOK, first, I can\u2019t accept a parallel between mental illness and overweight. I\u2019m fat, and in no way does the size of my body impact my ability to make decisions about healthcare.\nNext, I\u2019m referring only to serious mental illness. I\u2019m mentally ill, but I don\u2019t have a thought disorder (psychosis). When I\u2019ve been too deeply depressed to function and family has stepped in to help, my illness doesn\u2019t tell me that the doctors are monsters in disguise, or that the medicine is poison, or whatever. Delusional thinking changes everything about \u201cfreedom.\u201d\nSo, yes, forcing is a loaded concept, and we should be very, very careful with it. On the other hand, there are millions of people with mental illness in jails and prisons. So which is preferable? I certainly don\u2019t have all the answers, but I do know that thought disorders are unique among medical issues. Consider people with Alzheimer\u2019s. Is it more important to protect their freedoms, or their health and their lives?\nIn a nutshell, it\u2019s not an either/or question. Either we lock up all the people with mental illness (as in the past) OR we cut them lose and let them live unprotected, at the whim or their delusions and hallucinations (not to mention the people who would prey on them). It\u2019s a complex issue, but we can\u2019t decide not to face it because we\u2019re afraid of a slippery slope. From my perspective, we\u2019ve already slid down the slope and now we have to fix it.\nThis post made me sad but I guess that\u2019s kind of the point. We SHOULD be sad that we, collectively, care so little for our fellow man! Excellent article \u2026 shared it on Twitter!\nBeth recently posted..A Reluctant Author- Depression- and a Crazy Chicken\nWhat a powerful post. It made me think of a favorite song of mine, Under Bridges (http://rediscoveringdomesticity.com/2009/11/21/under-bridges-there-is-love/) about \u201cbeing Jesus\u201d to those that society casts off.\nThank you for your compassion and your thoughts on the matter. I agree with PP \u2013 mandating care is a slippery slope, however, I don\u2019t feel that is what you are suggesting, rather you are suggesting just having some sort of system in place at ALL to care for those with mental illnesses.\nThank you for writing this, for being so honest and straightforward about this. Bravo!\nMommylebron\nI read this post the other day when you first put it up, but I couldn\u2019t comment from my phone. I wanted to say thank you for sharing and for the ways you tried to make a difference. When the NAMI state scores on the quality of care available for the mentally came out, I was stunned. How is this possible? Have we learned nothing yet on the importance of care? People are so quick to nod their head and cluck their tongues once they hear \u201cmental illness\u201d as if it is a reference to to a subhuman species. People? These are someone\u2019s father, someone\u2019s mother, sister, brother, son, daughter. Someone\u2019s child. A real person\u2019s child. My child. My child suffers from mental illness and every time I feel the sting of stigma my heart breaks for her.\nMommylebron recently posted..Stream of Conscious- Guilt\nIt is so hard to read, but so true. I have a person in my life much like Carter. Sometimes you have written things I have let his mother read, just so she can know she is not alone.

The current common use of the online time clock in many organizations and businesses has provided the basis of this discussion which is going to be based on the benefits of the online time clock and also the various advantages that individuals are able to gain from it. One of the major benefits of the online time clock is the fact that it has increased accuracy in terms of keeping of the records in organizations and businesses as compared to the manual way of clocking which is normally quite inaccurate in many aspects. The online time clock has led to increased productivity in terms of using of less time when preparing payroll as compared to the old method of payroll that used to take quite a long time and was not as accurate.\nAnother advantage of using the online time clock is that it brings about increased employee satisfaction and this is due to the result of timely and accurate pay since the long method used to take so much time and people ended up being paid after a long while. Other benefits of using the online time clock include easy management and also flexible working arrangements and this is due to the fact that the software is easy to track time from different locations. The use of the online time clock has led to employers to be able to manage the schedules of their employees in terms of the various shifts and also employees to be able to enjoy a good flow of shift without getting into each other\u2019s way.\nSince many employees are used to the buddy punching method and also other time theft it is important to apply the online time clock so that you may stop that kind of behavior from operating in your organization or in your business. The online time clock has managed to save a lot of businesses and organizations a lot of time and funds at this is because it is able to prevent human error in bookkeeping and also uses less time and resources in terms of the paperwork that was normally used by many organizations before they started using the online time clock. The online time clock has also led to increased employee accountability and this is because all the records are well-kept and therefore it is easy to access how an employee operates in terms of time.\nA Simple Plan: Payroll\nNext Post The 10 Best Resources For Professionals",

        "raw_content": "Beaded Chatelaine Style Purse\nUnknown Seneca (Haudenosaunee) Artist\nL: 7 5/8\"; W: 7.25\"; D: .5\"\nhttp://www.fenimoreartmuseum.org/files/fenimore/collections/thaw/exhibit1/e10689a.htm\nBy Leah Shenandoah (Cornell University)\nMy Grandmother, Maisie Schenandoah - Oneida Wolf Clan Mother (1932-2009), was an avid collector of Haudenosaunee artifacts and historic beadwork. She encouraged me to examine and interact with her collection, enhancing my appreciation for viewing and creating Haudenosaunee art. Her collection included examples of \"tourist art\" or \"souvenir art\" made popular during the Victorian era in western New York. The advent of this type of historical beadwork was a direct result of colonization and industrialization. The contemporary remnant of this cultural phenomenon is known as the \"Pow Wow,\" where the commodification of indigenous art occurs. My grandmother owned and operated the \"Shenandoah Trading Post\" for forty years, selling indigenous arts, crafts and clothing. Her vast collection of Haudenosaunee art was partially obtained through the \"Pow Wow\" circuit from other artisans and traders. This method of barter is intrinsic to indigenous culture and has been carried forward by myself and my family.\nLinear beadwork made from glass beads replaced \"quill embroidery on hide in late-eighteenth-and-early-nineteenth-century Iroquois art.\"[1] Needlework was introduced to the Haudenosaunee by missionaries, which \"undoubtedly directly prepared the way for the Iroquois production of commoditized home crafts.[2] The consumption of \"souvenir arts\" by colonial settlers was in tandem with the frenzied motivations of salvage ethnography during that time. Dr. Ruth Phillips (Carleton University) art historian and Otsego Institute faculty states, \"despite the widely accepted view that this life was doomed to disappear with the encroachment of civilization- as the writers [Roche] note, the Indians are already 'half-civilized' - its lingering beauties could still be savored and consumed by the sensitive European as touristic experiences or as souvenir arts.[3]\nThis Seneca beaded chatelaine style purse exhibits unusual motifs unlike any I have witnessed.[4] I would argue that the stylistic expression of the Haudenosaunee Skydome symbol is unusual and unexpectedly contemporary for this era. Each side exhibits a unique design that is bilaterally symmetrical, radial and floral in nature with a repetitive patterned border and diamond shapes. Many Victorian era beadwork designs were reminiscent of earlier quillwork artifacts, depicting traditional \"cosmology and spirituality.\"[5] Phillips contends that the usage of traditional Haudenosaunee motifs on commoditized objects was a form of cultural resistance to oppressive colonial acculturation.[6] Beadwork as an act of indigenous resistance is a new concept for me discovered during this research, its implications beg for further investigation.\nDr. Jolene Rickard (Tuscarora) Ph. D., Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies Program at Cornell University and a faculty council of the Otsego Institute states: \"did all my grandmothers walk through time to be forgotten in their sleep? They send us reminders, tell us no. A quiet celebration of the initial planting of life is still stitched, woven, shaped, scraped, brushed, danced, and echoed in the song into our memory. Our cultural clues expose both the net of colonization and the ongoing fight/celebration of resistance.[7] I align with Dr. Rickard's statement, the act of creating with our hands is intrinsic to Haudenosaunee culture and cosmology. Creating art is an indigenous community-based traditional practice, creating kinship and memories embedded deeply within our habitus.\nSeveral questions arose while I was conducting research: what were these artists experiencing during the creation of this object? Was this made for sale or was it used as a ceremonial item, or both? Did the maker of this artifact experience a meditational state due to the repetitive nature of the beading process? Is there is a way to test cortisol levels through scientific methods i.e. DNA samples? Further scientific analysis may reveal how this bag was utilized by its owner.\nThe purse consists of the following materials: dark brown commercially produced, short pile velvet, red silk binding (deteriorated and faded), a woven cotton muslin lining, thread and size 13 glass beads. The bead colors are: chartreuse, terracotta, white, cerulean blue, mustard yellow, transparent amber and forest green. The velvet was most likely beaded with designs and then attached to the muslin lining. The two sides were sewn together, then silk binding was hand-stitched to the sides of the purse with a matching color thread. Edge beadwork was attached with six beaded loops as the final step.\nI learned a great deal during the 2017 Otsego Institute including: curatorship, historical object research, as well as valuable input, feedback and connections from the faculty council and student cohorts. I discovered my fine art experience in textiles and metals proved useful in understanding techniques, terminology, materials and processes employed by the makers of the objects. I am infinitely grateful for the skills gained during the institute that will inform the research I am conducting in Cornell University's Apparel Design Doctoral program.[8]\n\u200b[1] R. B.

        "raw_content": "Including: Oryzopsis hymenoides, miscanthus, Pennisetrum, Panicum, Schizachyrium scoparium, Erianthus, Stipa\nOrnamental grasses can be just the right addition to any yard or landscape because they are easy to grow, low maintenance, practically pest-free and don\u2019t mind poor soils. They are often used to form borders or hedgerows, can be a backdrop or a screen, they look good with native landscapes and they are interesting and beautiful in their own right.\nThere are both annual and perennial varieties of ornamental grasses that come in various heights, shapes and colors. Most prefer full sun, but partial shade may be an option. Various grasses require different amounts of water and most will grow in just about any kind of soil.In late summer and early autumn the grasses are truly ornamental beauties, showing off their plumes which continue to be attractive and add landscape interest throughout the winter. Those plumes are their seed heads, but the seeds are sterile so the plants do not become invasive.\nHere are descriptions of some of the ornamental grasses we carry (note that not all may be in stock on a given day\u2014call ahead to find out):\nIndian Ricegrass (Oryzopsis hymnodies)\nA cool-season grass, growing during spring and fall. It thrives in full sun in dry, loose, sandy soil. It is drought-tolerant, but it is not suited to poorly drained sites.\nMaiden Grass (miscanthus)\nWidely used grass for variable leaf color, arching form and persistent, whisk-like flowers. One of the most \u2013 and longest-used grasses in American gardens. Many varieties are available varying in leaf color, size and texture.\nFountain Grass (Pennisetrum)\nA warm-season grass that is adapted to a wide variety of soils and growing conditions. It thrives in full sun, endures drought well, and flourishes in poor, gravelly soils.\nSwitch Grass (Panicum)\nPrefers loamy soil, full sun, and plenty of water. It is a warm-season grass, but is hardy except in extremely cold areas. The underground runners invade adjacent ground in light, sandy soils, but less so in heavier soils.\nLittle Blue Stem (Schizachyrium scoparium)\nA drought tolerant, warm season grass found naturally throughout nearly all of New Mexico, except for the drier desert areas. The plants are winter hardy and accept a variety of soils and water conditions, but do best in full sun and rather dry soils.\nHardy Pampas Grass (Erianthus)\nA warm-season grass, preferring full sun in well-drained, moist to wet soil. Plants are hardy throughout the state, but dieback during winter and lack of flowering should be expected in the colder regions.\nMexican Feather Grass (Stipa)\nwill thrive in loose, well-drained, lime soils. The plants are cool-season, but also drought tolerant.\nAs we build Payne\u2019s Plant Library, we will feature each of these grasses separately as well as grouped as Ornamental Grasses. For now, here are some of our most popular varieties.\nPurple Fountain Grass (see Annuals)\nType of Plant: Grasses\nDistinguishing Characteristics: Various",

U.S. Treasury yields hit a 7-year high and finished the week above 3 percent. While these were notable, the most remarkable events last week occurred beyond our borders. These include:\nThe Vatican publishing a position paper on financial markets. Its opening was, \u201cEconomic and financial issues draw our attention today as never before because of the growing influence of financial markets on the material well-being of most of humankind. What is needed, on the one hand, is an appropriate regulation of the dynamics of the markets and, on the other hand, a clear ethical foundation that assures a well-being realized through the quality of human relationships rather than merely through economic mechanisms that by themselves cannot attain it.\u201d\nThe royal wedding boosting the British economy. A normal Britain wedding costs about \u00a318 thousand and includes about 80 guests. Prince Harry\u2019s nuptials were a bit more lavish. A wedding planning company estimated the cost of hosting 600 or more guests at \u00a332 million ($43 million in U.S. dollars). The largest component of the cost was \u00a330 million for security, which included drone destroyers.\nVenezuela\u2019s oil-based economy continuing to collapse as oil prices rise. \u201cVenezuela leads the world in two things: oil reserves and incompetence,\u201d opined The Washington Post. Poor management of the state-run oil industry has caused production to drop 23 percent since December. The country\u2019s declining production helped push oil prices higher last week. Prices are at levels last seen in 2014, reported Financial Times. Regardless of the country\u2019s economic woes, this weekend\u2019s election is not expected to oust President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro.\nRising oil prices have pushed the cost of gas higher, but that\u2019s not expected to deter Memorial Day travelers, according to USA Today. We wish you safe travels during the holiday weekend.\nDID YOU KNOW THERE'S A BILLIONAIRE CENSUS? Last week, the fifth edition of the Billionaire Census was released. Apparently, the wealth of billionaires increased by 24 percent during 2017. In addition, the billionaire population, which had suffered reduced numbers since 2015, expanded. It now includes 2,754 individuals. The previous high was 2,473 in 2015. According to Wealth-X:\n816 live in the Asia-Pacific region\n884 live in the Americas\n1,054 live in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa\nThere is a bit of disagreement about the size of the \u2018Three-Comma Club\u2019 and the rate at which its wealth is increasing. In March 2018, Forbes reported there were \u201c\u20262,208 billionaires from 72 countries and territories including the first ever from Hungary and Zimbabwe. This elite group is worth $9.1 trillion, up 18 percent since last year. Their average net worth is a record $4.1 billion. Americans lead the way with a record 585 billionaires, followed by Mainland China with 373.\u201d\nTwo hundred and fifty-six women made the list, including 42 new additions.\nThe Giving Pledge is another exclusive group that some billionaires have joined. The objective of the Pledge is to \u201c\u2026help address society\u2019s most pressing problems by inviting the world\u2019s wealthiest individuals and families to commit more than half of their wealth to philanthropy or charitable causes either during their lifetime or in their will.\u201d\nAs of February 2018, 175 billionaires from 22 countries had joined.\n--Henry David Thoreau, American essayist and naturalist",

Assn., 56:133-135.\nNew amendments to our Constitution and Byelaws will be proposed and put to the vote during the forthcoming Business Meeting which will take place during the London Congress in July, 1975. These amendments take into account what has been discussed during the previous meeting in Paris. The Association's Executive Council having proposed them, they have been prepared and drawn up by the Committee on the Constitution and Byelaws, chaired by Dr W. H. Gillespie, and whose members are Pearl King and Burness Moore. Dr Gillespie explains carefully the meaning of each of these modifications in the letter below.\nIt is normal that we should try thus to adapt our Statutes to the evolution which characterizes the life of our institution. At this juncture, we must clearly define the r\u00f4le that the International Association plays within each of the Component Organizations and in regard to each of its members. It could be thought that its only task is the organization of international Congresses and the provision of links. On the contrary, we think that, more than ever, the International psychoanalytic community must devote itself to common reflection about its identity and its aims.\nSome of the proposed amendments deal with the procedures followed by the Business Meeting and tend towards a better preparation for the decisions that must be taken by that Meeting and thus will give more weight and efficacity to its proceedings.\nOther amendments deal with a crucial problem, namely the link that unites the Component Organizations in matters of training.",

But no decision has been taken so far,\" a senior Kerala unit BJP leader told news agency PTI in Thiruvananthapuram.\nAmit Shah's wish to trek the hills comes days after he declared BJP's full support to the agitation by the devotees against CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front government's decision to implement the Supreme Court order lifting the ban on entry of women in 10-50 age group from offering prayers at the shrine.\nIn a scathing criticism of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan for taking action against Sabarimala protesters, Amit Shah last week claimed an \"Emergency-like\" situation was prevailing in Kerala and accused the government of \"playing with fire\".\nIf the state government does not stop hurting the devotees, BJP workers would be forced to bring it down, Amit Shah said, drawing a strong reaction from CM Vijayan, who termed the BJP president's warning an \"attack\" on the Supreme Court, Constitution and the country's judicial system.\nPolice have arrested over 3,500 people till yesterday in connection with the protests that rocked Kerala earlier this month.\nA large number of frenzied devotees staying put at the temple complex and base camps had prevented at least a dozen women of menstrual age from entering the temple when it opened for monthly pujas between October 17 and 22.\nProtests were also held in several other parts of Kerala by the devotees, who included a large number of women, seeking to protect the tradition of the shrine whose deity, Lord Ayyappa, is celibate.\nIntensifying the agitation, the BJP-led NDA yesterday announced a six-day 'Rath Yatra' from Kasaragod to Sabarimala in Kerala from November 8 to save the customs and traditions of the famous temple.\nVarious other agitation programmes, including a fast in front of the state DGP's office Thiruvananthapuram, have also been planned.\nThe BJP is apparently seeing the Sabarimala issue as an opportunity to widen its support base in the southern state of Kerala.\nThe party has so far failed to make a strong presence in the bi-polar polity in the state, dominated by the LDF and the opposition Congress-headed United Democratic Front (UDF).\nIn 2016 assembly polls, the BJP had scripted history by winning the Nemom seat, and garnered 14.65 per cent votes.\nPrevious article1 GB Data Cheaper Than Cold Drink Bottle In India, Says PM Modi In Japan\nNext article\u201cWhat\u2019s Your Gotra,\u201d BJP Asks As Rahul Gandhi Visits Ujjain Temple",

        "title": "I'm With The Promoter - With Brandon Carone",
        "raw_content": "I'm With The Promoter - With Brandon Carone\nI was way too young to be gogo dancing in a nightclub (yes, that\u2019s how I got started in this industry), but I knew the promoter and he hooked me up. I eventually met the owner of the club, almost 6 months after I started dancing, and we hit it off well. I was promoted to \u201clead dancer\u201d and was in charge of hiring all of the girls, their wardrobe, and their pay. It doesn\u2019t sound like much, but at the time and for where I was in my life, it was everything. Soon after, I established myself with the IL Dept. of Labor and registered ShowGirlz Entertainment, Inc. as a talent agency, which allowed me to take a percentage of earnings from the girls I helped get dancing and modeling jobs. I met everyone from nightclub promoters to movie stars, because everyone loves a showgirl.\nMy business was booming, but I couldn\u2019t see a light at the end of the tunnel. I had this nagging thought, \u2018can I still do this when I\u2019m 50?,\u2019 and it haunted me. Because essentially the only reason I was so successful was because I was young, hot, and sociable. Then it happened\u2026 I got pregnant. I tried to keep up the act, but it wasn\u2019t worth it to me anymore. All of a sudden my needs changed and I found myself hanging with a more mature crowd, making an entirely new group of friends. And these were people I knew all along but never developed the relationship because we were on two different playing fields. The future that I feared was in my present; it was right now. And unfortunately for me, my reputation was not manifested by what most would consider socially acceptable, so convincing new prospects to take me seriously was a challenge to say the least. I was morphing from \u2018promoter\u2019 to \u2018internal promoter\u2019 (I\u2019ll explain more later) and life as I knew it had changed forever.\nEveryone that works in the hospitality industry should be promoting the business they work for. Therefore, that makes you a promoter. There\u2019s a big difference between a \u2018promoter' and an 'internal promoter.\nBrandon Carone, Marketing Director at Mercadito Restaurant.\nSide Note \u2013 Internal promoters work directly with the brand and treat it as their own. These are your Directors of Marketing, PR Firms, General Managers, etc. Promoters are your party pushers and they rep several different venues at the same time, making money off of head counts and the bar.\nA common argument is pay. Promoters think they deserve more money than they do. The restaurant\u2019s sales should be a direct driver of how much the promoter gets paid. There\u2019s a value to ambiance, but it\u2019s at what cost? Promoters care mostly about how they are perceived to their following. Managers or internal promoters, think of operations for the general public. Bottom line verses ambiance is key. You have to know your bottom line yet you still need ambiance. I strongly believe that working with promoters is an investment and longevity should be the focus.\nI met Brandon Carone several years back, through the industry of course. He was orchestrating one of the biggest beach festivals, Wavefront, that Chicago had ever seen. He\u2019s the perfect example of someone that evolved from promoter to internal promoter and has done a fabulous job retaining his network all while developing new networks that work simultaneously and in harmony together.\n\"Your shelf life is only as strong as you, because you\u2019re the only one that carries those relationships. There are very few times when this doesn\u2019t matter, but it\u2019s rare.\u201d says Brandon. And this is why it\u2019s so important to have an exit strategy. And although you may look at promoters in a negative light, there are several that have made serious careers from it and have worked the system to it\u2019s maximum potential. Surreal for instance, is a great example of this. But I bet you can\u2019t name one other promoter in Chicago that was as successful, so as Brandon said, it\u2019s rare.\nWhat advice would you give to the promoters of today?\n\u201cEverything in my life is tied together. From real estate to restaurant management to promoting. Promotions should be used as a networking tool. And you can\u2019t be taught this, it\u2019s either natural or it\u2019s nothing. In it\u2019s best, promoting, if done right, can be a lucrative career. But you have to be passionate and you have to be exceptional at it. There has to be an end game or exit strategy, otherwise you\u2019re going to naturally have a decline that you can\u2019t bounce back from.\u201d says Brandon.\nOddly enough, starting in promotions was probably the best thing I could have done to launch my career and network. I couldn\u2019t possibly have met more people any other way. Promotions for me was merely a tool and it\u2019s still relevant in everything I do. Being a promoter is probably not the best career choice for most, but using promotions to launch that career choice is genius. So kudos to all of the promoters gone managers, you\u2019ve worked the system and created longevity for yourselves. That proves you\u2019re adaptable and that you\u2019re irreplaceable.",

        "title": "Science News: Radical Life Extension Is Already Here, But We are Doing it Wrong",
        "raw_content": "Radical Life Extension Is Already Here, But We are Doing it Wrong\nPosted in Science on 23rd May, 2012 04:09 PM by AlexMuller\nSo far as we know, the last hundred years have been the most radical period of life extension in all of human history. At the turn of the twentieth century, life expectancy for Americans was just over 49 years; by 2010, that number had risen to 78.5 years, mostly on account of improved sanitation and basic medicine. But life extension doesn't always increase our well-being, especially when all that's being extended is decrepitude. There's a reason that Ponce de Leon went searching for the fountain of youth---if it were the fountain of prolonged dementia and arthritis he may not have bothered.\nOver the past twenty years, biologists have begun to set their sights on the aging process itself, in part by paying close attention to species like the American Lobster, which, despite living as long as fifty years, doesn't seem to age much at all. Though some of this research has shown promise, it's not as though we're on the brink of developing a magical youth potion. Because aging is so biologically complex, encompassing hundreds of different processes, it's unlikely that any one technique will add decades of youth to our lives. Rather, the best we can hope for is a slow, incremental lengthening of our \"youth-span,\" the alert and active period of our lives.\nNot everyone is thrilled by the prospect of radical life extension. As funding for anti-aging research has exploded, bioethicists have expressed alarm, reasoning that extreme longevity could have disastrous social effects. Some argue that longer life spans will mean stiffer competition for resources, or a wider gap between rich and poor. Others insist that the aging process is important because it gives death a kind of time release effect, which eases us into accepting it. These concerns are well founded. Life spans of several hundred years are bound to be socially disruptive in one way or another; if we're headed in that direction, it's best to start teasing out the difficulties now.\nBut there is another, deeper argument against life extension---the argument from evolution. Its proponents suggest that we ought to avoid tinkering with any human trait borne of natural selection. Doing so, they argue, could have unforeseen consequences, especially given that natural selection has such a sterling engineering track record. If our bodies grow old and die, the thinking goes, then there must be a good reason, even if we don't understand it yet. Nonsense, says Bennett Foddy, a philosopher (and flash game developer!) from Oxford, who has written extensively about the ethics of life extension. \"We think about aging as being a natural human trait, and it is natural, but it's not something that was selected for because it was beneficial to us.\" Foddy told me. \"There is this misconception that everything evolution provides is beneficial to individuals and that's not correct.\"\nPeople usually regard life extension as a futuristic technology, but you begin your paper by discussing the ways that we've already extended the human lifespan. What's driven that?\nWhen you're talking about medicines that help us live longer, it's important to realize how much we've already accomplished. In the last 150 years or so, we've doubled our life span from 40 to 80 years, and that's primarily through the use of things you can characterize as being medical science. In some cases it's clear that we're talking about medical enhancement---vaccines, for instance, or surgical hygiene and sterilization. And then more broadly there are other, non-medical things like the sanitation of the water supply and the pasteurization of milk and cheese. All of these things have saved an enormous amount of life.\nIt used to be that people would die of an infectious disease; they'd be struck down when they were very young or when they were older and their immune system was weak. Now almost nobody in the first world dies of infectious disease; we've basically managed to completely eradicate infectious disease through medical science. If, at the outset of this process, you asked people if we should develop technologies that would make us live until we're 80 on average instead of until we're 40, people might have expressed these same kind of misgivings that you hear today. They might have said, \"Oh no that would be way too long, that would be unnatural, let's not do that.\"\nSo, in a way, we shouldn't view it as being extremely strange to develop these medicines, but in another sense we're at a new stage now, because now we're at the forefront of having medicines that actually address the aging process. And that's what I'm interested in talking about---the kinds of medicines that actually slow down the aging process, or at least some of the mechanisms of aging.\nCan you explain how senescence, the biological process of aging, is unevenly distributed across species?\nFoddy: There are different animals that are affected differently by various processes of aging. In my paper I go into the case of the American Lobster, which lives about as long as a human being. When you dissect one of these lobsters at the end of its life, its body doesn't show much in the way of weakening or wasting like you see in a human body of advanced age. That suggests that aging can evolve differently in different species. Lobsters seem to have evolved an adaptation against the cellular lifespan. There's this phenomenon where the DNA in our cells basically unravel after they've divided a certain amount of times, but lobsters have this enzyme that helps them replenish their telomeres---the caps that hold DNA together.\nThat's one of the reasons why lobsters don't seem to undergo aging in the same way that we do. Other species give off an antioxidant chemical in their bodies that prevent these oxidizing free radicals in our bodies from breaking us down. That's why doctor's recommend that you have a certain amount of antioxidants---some species are really good at producing those naturally.\nThere is this idea that when you're evolving you make certain trade-offs. Lobsters and clams don't really move around a lot; their bodies move and grow very slowly and one of the upsides of that is that they've been able to invest their evolutionary chips, so to speak, in resisting the aging process. Human beings, on the other hand, have to move around quite a lot. We have giant brains and we have to be able to run away from saber tooth tigers. As a result we have bodies that burn a lot of calories, and so that's where our chips are invested. It's just a difference in our evolutionary environment and that's why we've evolved to live and die the way we do. But it could have easily not turned out that way---that's the point I really want to make.\nKevin, I too miss Clearly Canadian! I loved those fizzy drinks when I was younger.

        "raw_content": "I am STEAMED. We went to the house of some people we know the other night (I won't name names) and I saw their horses for the first time in a while. I noticed one was walking like he was lame, shortening his strides on one side, and looked awkward trying to get up into a trot (much less a canter), so I looked at his feet \u2014 and guess what? They haven't been trimmed in probably almost a year!\nSo I told the owner that one of the horses was throwing his head way to one side like he was lame, and he immediately said, \"He's always done that.\" Ummm... Always walked like he was lame? I don't think so! But I was so shocked and upset by the nonchalance that I neglected to mention the shortened strides and the difficulty trying to run.\nThen I mentioned that his feet really need done, and the owner simply said, \"I don't have the money to do it.\" As if the problem will just go away because (you say) you're broke!\nI am SO angry. I know they buy crap for their kids, and they recently bought a bunny too. It makes me so angry when people add to their responsibilities rather than following up on the ones they've got.\nThis is an extremely difficult person to talks to. He's very alpha-male type, and I'm always a lot more successful planning my approach than carrying it out with people like him. He cuts you off and doesn't let you finish, and gets angry if you're saying something like this. But at the same time, I am angry seeing how his horses are suffering \u2014 all because he can't admit that if he can't afford their upkeep, he shouldn't have them in the first place.\nHave you ever been in a situation where someone you know, someone close to you even, neglects their animals in ways that would earn them a report to Animal Control if it were anybody else? How have you handled it? Or if you haven't had a similar situation happen to you, how would you handle it? I'm totally at a loss, but I'm so angry I know I can't do nothing!\nThe blogger over at http://strawberry-lane.blogspot.com/ found a horse that was starving, among other things, and she tried reasoning with the owner. Her friends attempted feeding the horse at their expense and the owner got on the defensive and said they had to stop. It's difficult to deal with human egos. Anyway, you might want to look for her posts about rescuing that horse to get an idea of how difficult some horse owner's can be.\nI'd probably report it to animal control.\nThanks, NM, I'll check out those posts.\nI sent you an email about this, but it's not really something I feel comfortable about reporting at this juncture. I'm too close to the person and it would create some major rifts. So for now I'm going to have to try another avenue.\nHopefully I'll be able to glean some wisdom from that other blogger's posts.\nAt May 14, 2009 at 4:10 PM, Laughing Orca Ranch said...\nLast year I reported someone for having horses with long...long feet. And I mean looong. They were literally like elf slipper feet. Several of the horses had to HOP to walk. There were two that could only SHUFFLE because both the front and back feet curved up and over into their LEGS! gah!\nI contacted the Live Stock Board and within a week they were over there instructing the negligent and naive owners on what to do for hoof care.\nThey said they had rescued the horses several months and believed in NATURAL HOOF care....which apparently meant, \"No FARRIER WORK??\"\nIronically the people who owned those horses own a bunch of camels that are leased out to the zoo for camel rides. I suppose they knew how to take care of camels better than they did horses.\nI plan on checking on them at the end of this month, during the fiber tour. (camera in hand, if needed)\nLisa, good for you. It always amazes me the excuses deadbeats will come up with to evade their responsibilities as horse owners.\nIf something doesn't get done with the horses I talked about in my post, I may well have to resort to reporting them. But I'll have to wait a little while at least, since I did, after all, mention it to the owner just the other day.\nUnfortunately, they live at the end of a rarely-traveled dirt road, so they'll probably still know it was me.\nBy the way -- this horse's hooves aren't yet curling up, but they look like the only direction they have left to grow is up. He was hobbling and hopping trying to get up into a canter, so I'm sure it's making it difficult for him to get around.",

        "title": "Youth and The Bondage of an Unquestioned Tradition \u2014 PAN",
        "raw_content": "This article is based on a long article titled Shouting to No One in a Vacuum:\nMechanisms of Exclusion, Disempowerment and the Missing Voices of the Youth in Zimbabwean Politics. It was first published in 2010 in Political Participation in Zimbabwe, edited by David Kaulemu.\nMembers of the audience at a Zimbabwe Youth Festival event in Mtoko Zimbabwe.\nThe bondage of an unquestioned tradition\nParticipation of young people in politics remains peripheral and tokenistic. The complex regime that governs the perception of politics, power, leadership, governance and decision-making in Zimbabwe is thoroughly woven around a strong socio-cultural tradition that relates authority, power and leadership to age. It is borrowed from a deep-rooted patriarchal tradition which places fathers as figure heads of families and chiefs while kings are considered \u2018natural\u2019 rulers. This culture of fathers and rulers has found its way into modern politics: political leaders are treated as fathers who are, by some sort of divine ordinance, in control. They are fathers who, instead of leading, rule. The political participation of the youth in such an environment has automatically been reduced to that of children, subjects and servants who by 'fate' are expected to obey their fathers and serve their rulers with extreme subordination. Young women, like their mothers, are expected to occupy nothing but the kitchen and to bear children.\nYoung people are expected to take orders and produce results and to be accountable to their elders, not the reverse. Any act of assertiveness and enquiry on transformative possibilities is an act of insubordination tantamount to treason. This notion is effectively implanted in the conscience of the entire society where, from primary socialisation, the balance of power and leadership has more to do with age than merit. Young people nurtured in such a culture can do nothing but adapt the status quo as the only truth; they cannot make political decisions because they are young. The culture becomes so factual and instinctive that even when menial political responsibilities are thrown at them, young people seriously believe they cannot take up positions of authority nor make significant political decisions, thus ignorantly granting authority to the elderly.\nThe political context and meaning of the terms \u2018youth\u2019 and \u2018participation\u2019\nMDC supporters waving 'game over' red cards showing 90 minutes of full-time soccer match which by coincidence was President Mugabe's age then.\nYoung people are treated with suspicion and contempt regardless of the nobility of their sentiments and contributions to national development. The crop of young people born after the liberation struggle, who constitute more than half of the population, have been derogatorily branded as \u2018born frees\u2019 or amafikizolos (literally, \u2018just arrived\u2019). Both terms meant to reflect the youth\u2019s lack of knowledge and experience of the liberation war. The same attitude has been adopted to justify the exclusion of youth from critical leadership and decision-making positions where young people have been accused of lacking in capacity.\nThe term \u2018youth\u2019, sometimes used interchangeably with \u2018youths\u2019, has been used within a wide and elusive range of meanings in Zimbabwean society. In the domestic and social realm, \u2018the youth\u2019 implies children. In political party doctrine, \u2018youths\u2019 are the confrontational and mobilising arm that has little role in decision-making platforms. In police and security terms \u2018youths\u2019 denote a collection of rowdy touts who are moved by indiscipline and violence; a population sector which the police have to confront with little remorse. In economic and human development platforms \u2018youth\u2019 is synonymous with immature and undeveloped persons. They are the able-bodied labour-force which has to toil, toss and turn for their employers regardless of their potential to be business-owners and employers if given enough capital, infrastructural and legal support.\nA student activist protesting, against the continued detention of a group of academics and civic society leaders of charges of treason, in front of the Harare magistrate's court in 2012\nIn governance, \u2018the youth\u2019 are treated as lacking experience, bookish freshers who have nothing to share but everything to learn. In social activism, \u2018youths\u2019 are the needy partners who are often driven by excessive and misguided passion that will soon die down with experience and frustration. In religious circles, particularly in churches, \u2018youths\u2019 are generally the energetic elements that sing in praise-and-worship teams, help with cleaning the church, brave the harsh weathers in crusades and outreaches, and do little, if any, preaching in the church. The youth remain treated as that segment of the population that is violent, unruly, undisciplined and underdeveloped. Equally appalling is the use and meaning of \u2018participation\u2019 in socio-economic and political development terminology and practice in Zimbabwe. It has come to be a catch-all term, and almost fashionable, so that development workers, beneficiaries, social and political leaders have used it loosely to suggest anything that suits their needs.\nThe political participation of youth in Zimbabwe from the days of the liberation struggle has been minimal and limited to menial tasks such as mobilisation. The critical need for participation is mistakenly minimised to idealistic considerations as human rights or the desire to undo despotic rule , rather than developed to an understanding of its inherent power as means for articulating genuine needs and satisfying them through self-reliance and mass mobilisation\nAhoy: Scenes and Songs From Zimbabwe A montage of of various clips from Harare. The activists are fighting the system that has been in control for the past 35 years.\nEven as it is generally agreeable that youth are the future \u2013 as in the old adage, 'youth are the leaders of tomorrow' \u2013 their role in the present is similarly important. It has a bearing on what they become in the future. As a call to sanity and the building of sustainable institutions, participation of young people should be seen beyond the mere self-serving tendencies of current politicians, it is rather a \u2018social function which leads to stronger public policy and better governance.\nThe participation models must move from tokenism and ad hoc nature which undermines the importance of young people, to creating platforms for policy-makers to engage young people. This should come with the liberalisation of youth development in ways that provide space for other diverse players in the sector to make their contributions. Where there has been involvement of young people, the approaches should become more participatory, inclusive and meaningful -with increased funding and capacity development for youth organisations. Investing in youth education should be considered a key empowerment tool, backed by an ongoing critique and analysis of the quality of education and character of the curricula. It is important for the policy to re-direct youth development by redefining youth, taking into account the heterogeneous nature of young people and gender inclusion in the concerns and priorities of the policy.\nIssues of youth participation have been relegated to secondary concern that requires no emergency attention as the country claims to be grappling with a political crisis and a collapsing economy. The political landscape remains narrow and limited in its scope. As long as Zimbabwe\u2019s political debate remains focused on a binary discourse based on political affiliation, and with limited freedom of thought and speech, young people's voices on effective political participation unfortunately remain a loud shout in a vacuum.\nIn the final analysis, the legacy that the present can leave for the future is a well- developed person capable of adapting to the reality of tomorrow. It is imperative for policymakers to start developing the youth for tomorrow rather than building tomorrow for the youth. Where youth voices shout, they must be heard and supported rather than stonewalled. That would certainly remove the current vacuum that has left many young people voiceless, apathetic, disempowered, underdeveloped and their voices well distanced from politics.\n\u2190 What My State of the Nation Address (SONA) Would Have Sounded LikeUniting or Dividing the Country?- Revisiting Nigeria's 2015 General Elections \u2192",

        "title": "Collected Essays: Bob Quinn's Atlantean (1983)",
        "raw_content": "Despite appearing, for all intents and purposes, as a run-of-the-mill documentary (albeit with somewhat of a questionable subject), under the surface, Quinn's Atlantean trilogy functions as a comment on both colonialism and nationalism in contemporary Ireland. Employing a documentary aesthetic and many familiar documentary techniques, it is conceivable that the film would have been sold as yet another documentary to be shown alongside nature or history documentaries. Shooting exclusively on-location and employing a voice-over narration for the most part, the film is instantly recognizable as a documentary. The filmmaker often participates in interviews or addresses the camera directly as do some experts on the subject. Were it made by an outside filmmaker, that had no previous relation to Ireland, it would have been easy to classify this film as purely anthropological in nature. In fact, the film works rather well as an anthropological study which makes it so much more difficult to distinguish from a documentary proper. A closer examination, however, reveals several elements that point to the fact that there is more to Atlantean than a mere exploration of Connemara and the origins of its inhabitants.\nOne of the more prevalent clues is the constant questioning of Quinn's own thesis within the film. In fact Quinn declares early on in the film that he will probably not succeed in proving said thesis. While this would serve to destabilize the much needed authority that the narrator relies on in a documentary, Quinn in fact uses this to reinforce it, claiming that he only thought like this 'because he had a 'colonised mind''[1]. What this does, is provide the viewer with a reason for why he might not be convinced by the film's argument (because the viewer, like Quinn, has a 'colonised mind'). More importantly however, what this does is convince the viewer that he does, indeed have a colonised mind. As any Irishman that has grown up with the Celtic identity taught to him/her in school and at home (or any non-Irish with some notion of geography) might be inclined to do when faced with Atlantean's hypothesis, the viewer is quick to dismiss it as unrealistic. This very dismissal however, while it might not help to prove that Atlantean's claim is true, might more effectively prove that the viewer has a 'colonised mind'. So while destabilizing his own hypothesis throughout the film does not contribute to prove it, it does contribute to the viewer's questioning themselves and the reason that they might be dismissing it in the first place. Further, Quinn presents a very nationalistic image of west-Ireland throughout, showing us people with a developed culture that are proud of their traditions. The fact that Quinn uses this image to destabilize accepted notions of the Irish national identity (e.g. 'see the people of Connemara' \u00e0 'see how rich their culture is' \u00e0 'see how non-Celtic/European it is') only comes to show (or rather put into question) that these notions might be a product of colonialism. It is precisely this colonialist product White refers to when he talks of Quinn's 'project of eradicating the identity forced upon rural people by those in positions of usually illegitimate authority' which he deems 'a classic anti-colonialist mission'[2]. While White's referencing Solanas and Getino's Third Cinema manifesto[3] might seem a bit extreme (Quinn's films are far from the militant works that inspire aggressive activity of which Solanas and Gentino speak) there is no doubt that his work in Atlantean strives for an alternative notion of Irish nationalism that is not blemished by colonialism. While his Atlantean theory certainly has its valid points, it is much more effective in arousing doubt and questioning the status quo of Irish national identity\n[1] White, 1995, p6\nWhite, J.

        "raw_content": "Snow continues as rumors swirl around opening of Back Bowls at Vail\nMore storms in forecast ahead of World Cup ski-racing action at Beaver Creek\nNick Williams drops a rock on Ben\u2019s Face at Vail on Friday.\nEditor\u2019s note: Sun Up Bowl opened on Saturday morning, Nov. 24, with both Chair 5 and Chair 9 cranking up. Heavy snow started pounding the Vail Valley at about 12:15 p.m. on Saturday, followed soon after by the closure of eastbound Interstate 70 at Vail Pass at 12:48 p.m. Also, Mikaela Shiffrin finished just off the podium in fourth in Saturday\u2019s GS in Killington, Vt.\nAll the talk in the lift lines at Vail on Friday \u2013 a soft and snowy day after Thanksgiving \u2013 was of a potential rope-drop on the Back Bowls over the weekend. Rumors, some of them anonymously substantiated by mountain ops workers, focused on the possibility of Sun Up and Sun Down bowls opening either today (Saturday, Nov. 24) or, more likely, on Sunday.\nQuick point of comparison, parts of the Back Bowls opened for the first time last season on Jan. 12.\nBut now, helped by a half a foot of new snow since Thanksgiving night, Vail Mountain is in excellent early-season shape. Light snowfall was continuing Saturday morning and expected to carry on into Sunday. At Beaver Creek, that meant the opening of Rose Bowl on Friday, with more terrain likely to open in time for World Cup ski racing festivities next week.\n\u201cStorm #2 is moving through Colorado on Saturday and bringing periods of very heavy snow to the northern and central mountains,\u201d Opensnow.com meteorologist Sam Collentine wrote Saturday morning. \u201cCold temps and lingering snow early Sunday morning will be followed by dry conditions through Tuesday. We\u2019re back in business on Wednesday, with additional chances for snow through next weekend.\u201d\nThat, of course, means weather will no doubt be a factor for the Birds of Prey men\u2019s World Cup races at Beaver Creek, which get under way with downhill training runs starting Tuesday, Nov. 27. The main events kick off on Friday with a super-G, followed by Saturday\u2019s downhill and Sunday\u2019s giant slalom. For the full schedule of events, go to the Vail Valley Foundation website.\nBut that\u2019s next week. The men are at Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada this weekend, and the women face the Beast of the East starting today (Saturday, Nov. 24) at Killington, Vermont. Look for EagleVail\u2019s Mikaela Shiffrin to add to her top-five all-time win total with another victory at Killington either in today\u2019s GS or Sunday\u2019s slalom \u2013 or possibly both.\nThen the following weekend, the men come to Beaver Creek and the women will be at Lake Louise, minus Vail\u2019s Lindsey Vonn, who has dominated on that course but is out due to a bum knee sustained in a recent crash. It was Vonn\u2019s best chance to pick up some early wins in her final-season quest to break Ingemar Stenmark\u2019s all-time victory record of 86.\nOn Nov. 20 Vonn tweeted: \u201cYesterday I crashed training Super-G and hurt my knee. The good news; I do NOT need surgery. The bad news; I won\u2019t be able to race in Lake Louise. LL has always been my favorite stop on the WC and I am devastated to not be coming this year.I am down but I am NOT out! #nevergiveup.\u201d\nThen on Thanksgiving Vonn tweeted, in part: \u201cFinally, with my latest crash I am again reminded of how lucky I am to do what I love and to have such a great team around me to help pick me back up\u2026again!\u201d\nVonn already holds the all-time women\u2019s World Cup victory record with 82, and as an Olympic downhill gold medalist and four-time overall champion, she has nothing left to prove in the sport. Consider this: Shiffrin is fifth on the all-time list with 44 \u2026 and she\u2019s 38 wins behind Vonn. As Shiffrin goes for her third straight overall title, here\u2019s another fun fact: Vail Valley ski racers (Vonn and Shiffrin) have won six of the last 10 overall titles!\nOn the men\u2019s side, Austria\u2019s Marcel Hirscher is chasing a little history of his own, coming into Beaver Creek next week looking to become only the second male ski racer to amass 60 career wins \u2013 still a full 26 behind Stenmark but good for second on the all-time list. Park City\u2019s Ted Ligety sits 14th on that list, with 25 career wins, which is just three spots behind legendary countryman Phil Mahre, who\u2019s in 11th all-time with 27 career wins.",

        "raw_content": "Vail set to open Friday as Colorado enjoys total snowpack turnaround\nA week ago, greenish grass was still blowing in a warm breeze at most Colorado ski resorts \u2013 even the ones that were open. But then on Monday the first of a series of winter storms blew through, depositing in excess of 3 feet of new snow in the high country.\nNow ski area operators \u2013 7 of whom are currently operating for the 2014-15 season \u2014 no longer have to dream of white Thanksgiving. It\u2019s a reality.\nVail opens on Friday, and should offer far more terrain than the typical Born Free white ribbon for opening day. Although Vail hasn\u2019t confirmed it yet, the mountain will likely offer skiing down to both Lionshead and Vail Village.\nEldora also opens on Friday, which will bring the total number of operating ski areas in Colorado to nine. Many more resorts, including Beaver Creek on Nov. 26, open during Thanksgiving week.\nThe big winner last week was Breckenridge, which postponed its original Nov. 7 opening day until Friday, Nov. 14. Breck received 46 inches of snow during the week, allowing it to open with a 30-inch base, 5 lifts and 12 trails.\n\u201cWe could not be more excited about this new snow as our resorts are opening and we head into the Thanksgiving holiday,\u201d said Pat Campbell, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Breckenridge Ski Resort.\nAnother Vail-owned resort, Keystone, had to postpone its scheduled Oct. 31 opening but then received 39 inches of new snow last week. It now has a 25-inch base with 4 lifts and 7 trails open.\nAlthough their snow reports aren\u2019t yet up and running, Vail and Beaver Creek both got around 3 feet of new snow last week, in addition to much colder temperatures ideal for snowmaking. That\u2019s the best possible news for crews trying to get World Cup and World Championship courses ready for the season.\nSunday, Nov. 23, is the last chance this season for skiers and snowboarders to buy Vail Resorts\u2019 Epic Pass, which for $769 for adults provides access to 22 ski areas in five states and around the world, including the new addition of Park City this ski season.\nWeather forecasters are calling for mostly sunny and dry weather the first half of this week in Colorado, with snow returning later in the week and in time for a possible powder day over the coming weekend. After unseasonably warm, dry weather in October and early November, Colorado is now on track for above-average early season precipitation.\n\u201cThe punchline for the next 7-10 days is that I think we\u2019ll see multiple additional storms and most of the state has a good chance to be at or above average snowfall by the time we hit Thanksgiving,\u201d writes meteorologist Joel Gratz of Opensnow.com. \u201cI still can\u2019t believe I\u2019m writing that as the statistics were not on our side after a mostly dry first 9 days of the month.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Edsel Ford 1934 Model 40 Speedster\nCanvas 100x100x4,5 cm\nof als 60x60x4,5cm\n\u20ac85 incl. verzendkosten\nEdsel B. Ford\nCondensed from several articles in 1989, by Edsel owner Ron Osborn\nDrawings by Harry Bradley\nI have prepared a short story on the life of Edsel Ford. As most of us know, Edsel died in May, 1943, so it seemed fitting to honor the man on the 46th anniversary of his death, who\u2019s car and club are named after him.\nThe story deals with his youth, his fascination with car design and development, his Presidency of Ford Motor Company and his untimely death at age 49. Let me say that finding articles on Edsel Ford was no easy task. Edsel lived in the shadow of his father so much that very little is known about him even today. Even as President of Ford, he made very few major decisions. It was usually Henry that made the final decisions for the Company. However, Edsel enjoyed cars; especially car design. It was his hobby as well as his specialty. Edsel had other hobbies, like photography, fast boats, painting and sports, but cars remained his lifelong favorite.\nDuring his early childhood, Edsel and his father worked side by side on cars. Later on, Edsel became more fascinated by the shapes of automobiles than by their inner workings. As ateenager, he built several speedsters, mostly T-based. Edsel was indulging in a common pastime of the day, one shared by quite a few young men with money, the difference being that Edsel had an unlimited supply of parts. This love of styling and building cars would come in very handy as time went on.\nI found a statement by Edsel which was dated in 1922 \u2013 \u201cFather makes the most popular car in the world. I would like to make the best car in the world \u2013 Lincoln\u201d. In the late \u201920\u2032s, it was Edsel who guided the styling of the Model A, and gave it the mini-Lincoln look. At the time Henry was too busy straightening out the innards to worry about the A\u2019s outlines. He didn\u2019t care what the car looked like as long as it did what he wanted it to do, and it was painted black (REMEMBER?).\nEdsel regularly had cars built for his personal use. Two of his personal favorites were his 1932 and 1934 speedsters. The 1932 was a V-8 Boat-tail speedster, and was built with the help of stylist-designer E.T. Gregorie.\nThe \u201932 was a beautiful car with quite a number of radical features for its time. All aluminum body, pantalooned fenders, bullet headlights, no running boards, split windshield and V\u2019d grille shell.\nTwo years later in 1934, Edsel again called on Gregorie to build him another speedster. It again had an aluminum body, but this model was lower than the \u201932, and the headlights were mounted at the axle height. There were twin-windscreens, no doors, and the overall effect was that of a pure racing car. Edsel has no intention of producing any of these cars in quantity, and for the most part he kept them out of his father\u2019s sight. Seems Edsel kept his speedsters inside a gardener\u2019s shed at his home.\nEdsel became the guiding light behind Ford\u2019s styling section, and as mentioned before, the Lincoln became Edsel\u2019s crowning acheivement. But he also saw the Zephyr and most other pre-war Fords through their various stages of body design. As one can see, these were very happy times for Edsel. Unfortunately, there would be fewer of these happier times as the pressures of running the Ford Motor Company, an over-demanding father, and America\u2019s entry into the Second World War would begin to take its toll on Edsel.\nAfter Edsel\u2019s death, both speedsters were sold. (For the latest news on both vehicles, see the update at the end of this article.)\nEdsel was twenty-five years of age when he became President of Ford, but the appointment was no more than a cruel hoax. Foxy old Henry had redesigned the Presidency and was making noises about organizing a rival firm to build a better and cheaper car than the Model \u201cT\u201d. Henry had no intention of relinquishing control of the Ford Motor Company, nor did he plan to organize another company. He was simply diluting and very effectively the value of Ford\u2019s stock, preparing to buy out the small minority stockholders and assume total control. Edsel was being manipulated, and he would be manipulated, harassed, tormented and humiliated all the remaining days of his life.\nOnce, when all the Ford brass, including Henry, were attending a luncheon, Henry rose from the table and yelled at Edsel to \u201cshut up\u201d, and stormed out of the room. Apparently Henry had overheard Edsel remarking that there was some merit in placing hydraulic braking systems on all Ford products, which were being done on virtually all of Ford\u2019s competitors. It didn\u2019t pay to criticize Ford cars \u2013 not in Henry\u2019s presence at least \u2013 and this included Edsel. One side note on the subject; Edsel\u2019s brother-in-law and closest confidant, Ernest Kanzler, had learned that in 1926. Kanzler, a second Vice President at Ford, composed a six-page letter in January of that year, pointing out that Chevrolet sales were rapidly gaining, while Ford\u2019s were in sharp decline. Kanzler, while delicately refraining from direct criticism of Henry\u2019s beloved Model \u201cT\u201d, called for a more competitive six cylinder car. \u201cWith every additional car our competitors sell, they get stronger and we get weaker.\u201d\nIt backfired, and Henry was furious. Thereafter, Ernest Kanzler found himself ignored, ridiculed, and victimized in every conceivable way. Ultimately, while Edsel was out of the country, Henry had Kanzler fired.\nOn one occasion, Edsel had contracted for the construction of a new office building. It seems both Accounting and especially the Sales department had long since outgrown their quarters. Henry was out of town at the time that the plans were made and the contracts let. (One suspects that this may not have been coincidental!) Upon his return, the elder Ford took note of the excavation that was underway and demanded to know what was going on. Edsel, doubtless with a mixture of pride and dread, described the new building which would supply Company with badly needed office space. Henry wanted to know for whom? This should have been Edsel\u2019s cue to pitch for the needs of the Sales department \u2013 something Henry could understand. Instead, however, the younger Ford mentioned first the accountants. Without waiting to hear another word, Henry turned and marched out of Edsel\u2019s office.\nThe next morning, when the accountants reported for work, they found their offices stripped. No desks, chairs, files or telephones. Even the carpeting was gone, and they were out of a job. Henry had abolished the Accounting department with which he had never had any patience with anyway, and overnight had seen to the removal of its furniture and equipment. He then informed Edsel that there was now plenty of room for the Sales staff.\nPeople wondered then, and still wonder, why Edsel put up with such treatment. A few reasons I found were:\nSome said it was out of love for his father.\nEdsel had three sons. Perhaps he was simply hanging on until the day that they could take over.\nDoubtless there was the factor of family loyalty. For Edsel to have left the Company would almost certainly have depressed the value of Ford stock, all of which was held by family members.\nOthers, more cynical, pointed out that Edsel derived a very handsome income from the Ford Motor Company.\nMost importantly, from all the evidence, Edsel Ford was simply not a combative individual. Confrontation and conflict were totally foreign to his nature.\nIn ant event, Edsel mostly kept his torment to himself. Only rarely did he reveal his inner emotions to anyone \u2013 some perhaps to his wife Eleanor, and to Ernest Kanzler before he was fired by Henry.\nFrustration and suppressed rage make a poor recipe for good health and long life. Not surprisingly, Edsel fell victim to ulcers. In time, the ulcers led to something far worse. Early in 1942, he underwent abdominal surgery. Ten months later, he was hospitalized again, this time for something called Undulant Fever. (My medical book describes this as a persistent form of Brucellosis transmitted to humans from lower domestic animals, or by their by-products, and characterized by a recurrent fever, sweating and pain in the joints). As part of a bland diet, Edsel had been drinking milk from his father\u2019s dairy, and of course old Henry would not permit the testing of his herd, much less the pasteurization of the milk. But the doctors found something far worse than undulant fever, as bad as that was. Edsel\u2019s ulcers had become cancerous, and his condition was deemed inoperable. He was sent home to die.\nHenry Ford refused to admit the truth about his son\u2019s condition. \u201cIt was all due to Edsel\u2019s high flying lifestyle\u201d, he said. \u201cIf Edsel would stop smoking or eat a proper diet, or go see other doctors, his health would improve\u201d. But early in the morning of May 26th, 1943, death came for Edsel Ford. As I mentioned earlier, he was only 49. This story might have had a different ending if Edsel had been able to stand up to his stubborn father, demanding that he be allowed to run the Company without interference. But Edsel was Edsel, putting the feelings of others before his own.\nEdsel did make an impact during his short life, though:\nOn his community. For years Edsel Ford was one of the largest donors to the Detroit Community Fund.\nOn the Arts. A talented landscape artist in his own right, Edsel served for many years as President of the Detroit Arts Commission.\nOn the product line. It was Edsel who influenced his father to take over the bankrupt Lincoln Motor Company, saving one great car from the fate of so many others during the \u201930\u2032s.\nOn his family. Edsel was the kind of parent who always was there, sharing the joys and problems of his children. Edsel\u2019s final irony was the fact that the car that was intended by his family to do him honor turned out to be a dismal flop. And, yes, on his father. In the end, it was Edsel who persuaded the old man to replace the Model \u201cT\u201d, to mechanize his windshield wipers, to adopt \u2013 finally \u2013 hydraulic brakes, to engage in some semblence of long range planning and to make peace with organized labor.\nOne has to wonder whether Henry Ford ever comprehended what he had done to his only son. It seems unlikely. Certainly he never even began to understand this complex gifted man, nor did he ever really try. Nevertheless, he was grief stricken at Edsel\u2019s death. Less than four years after Edsel\u2019s death, the old man himself was gone.\nIn conclusion, I think a statement made in 1970 by Mr Henry Edmunds, Director of the Ford Archives, pretty well sums things up when he said:\n\u201cEdsel was responsible for many good things in the Company\u2019s history \u2013 insistance on verve and dash in product styling, on a reliable and safer product, on fair and courteous relationships with dealers and the public. He posessed an unquenchable sense of fitness, an insistance on doing the right thing. A single instance amoung many would be his little-known acheivement in making Ford Overseas a strong segment in the Ford marketing empire. He did all the essential things that Henry refused to do, and consequently held the Company together during several crisis periods in the 1930\u2032s. In true retrospect, he seems less a tragic figure than popularly supposed. Without him, the Company might never have attained the solid image it was today.\u201d\nHAPPY EDSELLING!!!\nEdsel Ford\u2019s 1932 roadster was photographed by Brian Ritzow at the Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona, California in February 2007. He writes, \u201cDuring the show I got to know the couple that just recently became the owners of this car. They apparently discovered this through a friend as it was about to be junked.\u201d\nEdsel\u2019s 1934 speedster was sold in Atlanta, Georgia for $1000 after Edsel Ford\u2019s death. It was next seen for sale in Road & Trackmagazine in 1948 for $2500, but did not find a buyer. It remained in storage until 1958, when it was purchased by John Pallasch of Deland, Florida for a tidy $603.\nUnder John\u2019s care, the car\u2019s gunmetal gray exterior was painted red and the upholstery was replaced with matching red leather. As of 1970, the car was reported belonging to Earl Pallasch of Deland, Florida. It was spotted in Amelia Island, Florida in January 1999, having been purchased by Bill Warner, founder of the Amelia Island Concours. On March 8, 2008, the car changed hands again, selling at an RM Auction for $1.74 million.\n\u00a91998-2012 Edsel.com All Rights Reserved",

Benefit Featuring The Doobie Brothers & Little Feat\nSince launching nearly 10 years ago with an acclaimed video of street musicians from around the world singing Ben E. King's \u201cStand By Me,\" Playing For Change will head into its second decade with We Are One, an Oct. 3 benefit concert at Los Angeles\u2019 Mayan Theater.\nThe Doobie Bros., Little Feat\u2019s Paul Barrere and Fred Tackett, Nahko, the Playing For Change band and other artists will perform at the event, which will also include the unveiling of Playing for Change\u2019s newest video, set to the Doobies\u2019 rock classic, \u201cListen To The Music.\u201d The clip features the Doobie Bros., as well as 20 musicians from around the globe.\n\u201cThis concert represents 10 years of traveling to over 50 countries, connecting the world through music,\u201d Playing For Change co-founder Mark Johnson said in a statement.\nPast Songs Around The World videos of such pop standards as Bob Marley\u2019s \u201cOne Love\u201d and \u201cGet Up Stand Up,\u201d and John Lennon\u2019s \u201cImagine\" performed by a collection of local artists have included appearances by Keith Richards, Bono, Jack Johnson, Jimmy Buffett and David Crosby and earned more than 450 million online views.\nThe Playing For Change Foundation was founded in 2007 to give back to the local musicians the videographers met while making the initial videos. The Foundation has developed 15 music programs in 11 countries, including South Africa, Rwanda, Argentina, Nepal and Thailand, that serve more than 1,200 children. All proceeds from We Are One will support free music education.\nThe Doobie Brothers co-founder Tom Johnston met Playing For Change\u2019s Johnson when the Doobies were on tour in Australia in 2015. Johnson asked if Johnston would consider doing a Playing For Change video using \u201cListen To the Music.\u201d Johnston forgot about it until Johnson sent him a version that already had bass, drums and a rhythm track recorded by musicians from around the world. Johnston went to a redwood forest in Mill Valley, Calif., to record his part and later recruited fellow Doobies Patrick Simmons and John McFee to appear. Johnston has nothing but praise for the other musicians on the video, including \u201ca slide player from Italy, who was killer,\u201d and \u201ca great sitar player in India.\u201d\nPlaying For Change\u2019s mission resonates with Johnston. \u201cTake a look around the world right now: Any place you can spread a little joy, but also give them a chance to learn an instrument they wouldn\u2019t have been able to had Mark and company not done this, is a very positive thing,\u201d he tells Billboard.\nJohnston is also thrilled that \u201cListen To the Music,\u201d which he wrote in 1972, still rings with such resonance. \u201cThere are songs that write themselves, those are the best ones,\u201d he says. \u201cYou\u2019re channeling something. The words just came to me with that one. I was sitting in a bedroom on 12th St. in San Jose, Calif. And I was writing about the leaders in the world and how they communicate and how much better it would be if they communicated with music instead of words.\u201d\nAll these years later, when the band plays the song\u2014they\u2019ll do at least 90 shows this year\u2014\u201ceveryone knows the words. It\u2019s humbling and very gratifying,\u201d Johnston says. \u201cPeople will tell me how that song got them through a tough time or through a war, Vietnam or Afghanistan. I\u2019ve also heard people say \u2018Man, I partied my brains out to that song\u2019 That\u2019s good too.\u201c\nLabels: Doobie Brothers, Music Artists, Music Blog, Music Concerts, Musicians, Playing for a Change Concert, Radio DJ info, RememberRadio.net, Rock & Roll, Rock & Roll Breaking News",

        "raw_content": "That this film speaks to a pressing need in our world to re-evaluate the mostly masculine values that have driven us for so many centuries is clear. But this is not a film about men bashing. On the contrary, it celebrates the male and female in all of us - it is about a balance of the best in both, and how we must move forward in healthy partnership.\nI had the privilege of meeting and talking with Emmanuel Itier recently. He is a man who loves women, in the best sense of that word. He trusts, admires and believes in women. He celebrates the natural collaborative, communicative, and peace-oriented nature of women, and recognizes that the patriarchal system, run by the two drives of fear and conquest needs to be deeply re-evaluated.\n\"The root of the problem,\" he told me, \"is the imbalance between the feminine and the masculine. Men have been conquerors, takers, killers. You push women out of politics, education, and religion, and you end up with a totally unstable world. If you look at who is currently managing the planet, it's just a few hundred thousand men. I now feel a compassion for them. They are little boys who were given a gun, either a mental one or a physical one, at age four and told to go and shoot. They think they are meant to kill. It can be a physical killing, an emotional one, or sometimes it's both. It's a real problem. Until we have a rebalance between the yin and yang, between the feminine and masculine, until men are reconciled with themselves, we will go nowhere.\"\nFor more information about this provocative and inspiring film, go to: https://femmethemovie.com/.\nFemme: Women Healing the World is available for rent or purchase on Amazon.

        "raw_content": "If people can't see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves; But when they attend to what he reveals, they are most blessed (Proverbs 29:18, MSG).\nPhoto by Jinx!\nPeople that capture a vision for anything in their life tend to move toward that vision. For example, when a child really desires a certain toy, they are going to start saving their money in order to buy it, or at the very least, bug their parents to get it for them! When women get a vision for having a family and raising children, they (usually) start dating responsible men with decent jobs, get married, and start having babies. Men get out of college, catch a vision of a career field they would like to pursue, and begin moving toward fulfilling that vision.\nAs Christians, God has already given us a vision for what we should be accomplishing for His Kingdom: going out and making disciples. In Matthew 28:18-20, we read our Lord's vision in His own words for His disciples:\nOnce we have accepted Christ as Savior and Lord of our lives, we have already been given a spiritual vision to move toward for the remaining days of our lives here on earth. Because of the way we have been shaped individually by Almighty God, the methods of accomplishing this vision may vary in each believer. But, the overall goal is to tell others about Him and teach new believers how to grow in their faith.\nPhoto by NewtonFreeLibrary\nGive The Vision\nWhether Christians may like it or not, money is included in this vision. Financial and material resources are necessary to fuel the vision of your church, missions work, and other important para-church ministries that are moving toward the vision of making disciples.\nMy pastor has a wonderful saying, \"The gospel is free, but ministry is expensive.\" It takes a great deal of money to provide ministry resources, staff, and buildings for our local churches to reach out into their communities. It can be expensive to provide the resources necessary to send missionaries overseas.\nIf we truly believe in God's vision that He has given to His followers, then that belief in God's Kingdom work here on earth needs to be met with money. Our money should follow our faith in that vision of going out and making disciples. Many of us have been blessed by God with an excess of wealth, not for the latest and greatest \"thingy\" out there today, but in order for us to give back to God through the ministries of our churches and others in order to accomplish the vision.\nPhoto by micah.e\nLive The Vision\nLiving the vision requires action. We must step out in faith, using all available resources at our disposal, in order to live out God's vision for the lives of His followers. We must put \"feet to our faith\" and do the hard work it requires to go out and make disciples. A part of that hard work is giving money back to God through our local church and other ministries.\nWe need to be bold in our faith to tell others about Him. We need to use our natural talents and spiritual gifts within the context of a local, Bible-believing church in order to accomplish His mission for us. And, we need to be great managers of His wealth and give back to Him as much money as we possibly can in order to fulfill the vision. When we are acting on these things, then we are living His vision for us.\nHave you caught His vision for your life? Are you living out that vision through giving back to Him of your time, energy, talents, spiritual gifts, and financial resources? What can you do, today, in order to move in the direction of that vision?",

Our goal is to provide a warm & friendly environment with a strong focus on customer experience. We strive to provide excellent service, quality beverages, with freshly prepared and homestyle cooked food.\nOur story began a number of years ago when we noticed, that there were quite a few local Pubs that were being closed, and that most of the rest looked like they were about to go out of business, that is, except for Weatherspoons.\nMost local venues, were either run down, the quality of drinks and food were poor, facilities were still in the dark ages, service levels were nearly non existent, or a combination of these factors.\nAfter some discussions we decided to have a go and see if we could do better. We formed our company Roadhouse Inns, and in late July 2010 we purchased our first \"Project\" The Travellers Rest located on the outskirts of Consett town centre.\nThe \"Trav's\" had been closed & boarded up for some time, and was in a very poor state of repair. It took us approx.12 months, some long hard hours, a substantial amount of our money, however we eventually opened in Aug 2011. We reclaimed most of the materials, and reused them, we purchase other reclaimed materials to keep the building in character. The building's original stone wall on the bundle street side of the building, is the only part of the project that was not rebuilt, everything else was demolished and rebuilt by ourselves. Most of our customers agree the transformation is amazing.\nOur second project was the Crown & Thistle in Catchgate. Once again it had been closed and boarded up for some considerable time, it was also in a terrible state of repair, however the we were able to salvage the main structure. Once again we reclaimed most of the materials, and also purchased other reclaimed materials. Most customers agree the transformation is amazing.\nOur third project is the Old Courthouse located on the junction of Victoria Road & John Street in Consett Town Centre. This was the Former County Court Building. Once again we rebuilt the inside, we also extended the ground floor to create a unique one off environment, that includes an outside courtyard that is inside.\nRoadhouse Inns\nCopyright \u00a9 Roadhouse Inns.

        "raw_content": "Endocrine problems may be the result of stress. Simply put, stress is the sum total of all mental and physical input over a given period of time. The marker used to measure stress is the adrenal steroid hormone, cortisol. Stress, whether physical or emotional in origin, provokes a response by the adrenal glands. Many hormonal imbalances are the direct result of adrenal insufficiency. When the adrenal glands become exhausted due to overwork, adequate levels of the stress hormones, DHEA and cortisol cannot be produced, this in turn plays a major role in the usage, or the misappropriation of all the other steroid hormones.\nThe adrenal glands produce two primary hormones, DHEA and cortisol. Both are considered the major shock absorber hormones in the body. They buffer us to stress and the negative impact it can have on both mental and physical function. Long-term stress can have a serious impact on the adrenal glands and cause them to shrink and reduce production. This causes cellular damage, which sets off a chain reaction affecting all parts of the body, as well as accelerating the aging process.\nThe adrenal glands hold the key to the hierarchy of hormones. It is necessary to establish the proper foundation first which means you must determine the cause of the hormonal dysfunction and treat the cause first. Our research has shown that to cause a positive hormonal change you must normalize adrenal activity first. It is the mainspring in the hormonal mechanism. When the adrenals malfunction, all other associated systems will as well. The symptoms associated with adrenal dysfunction are diverse and can involve the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, as well as the brain and nervous systems. In addition, the adrenals can impact the growth and repair of bones, muscles, hair and nails.",

Researchers have long believed that the condition, which affects one of every thousand babies born, was caused by excessive production of cerebral spinal fluid or an inability of the brain to properly absorb it.\nA new genetic study found another explanation, Yale University researchers report July 5 in the journal Neuron. An analysis of all genes of 125 hydrocephalus patients and parents showed that 13 percent of sporadic hydrocephalus cases are linked to new mutations in genes that regulate neural stem fate. The mutations result in reduced brain volume that secondarily becomes filled with cerebrospinal fluid.\nIn some of those cases, invasive surgery to implant fluid-draining shunts may be unnecessary and may explain neurological problems experienced by some patients, noted principal investigator and senior author Kristopher Kahle, assistant professor of neurosurgery and of cellular and molecular physiology; pediatrics.\n\u201cIt is possible that some of the neurological problems that many of these congenital hydrocephalus patients have may not be due to inadequately working shunts, but are in fact neurodevelopmental sequelae of a genetic condition that alters neuronal function,\u201d Kahle said.\nCharuta Gavankar Furey is the lead author on the study. Richard Lifton, formerly of Yale and now at Rockefeller University, and Murat Gunel, chair of Neurosurgery at Yale, are co-authors on the study.",

        "raw_content": "Religion News Service (Salt Lake Tribune)\nLos Angeles \u2022 Ever since Bram Stoker\u2019s Dracula began haunting the imagination in 1897, popular culture has identified Christian symbols \u2014 crucifixes, holy water, communion wafers \u2014 as weapons to ward off a blood-thirsty vampire.\nThe Twilight novels and film franchise have religious associations, too \u2014 most of them from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.\nAs the film\u2019s \u201cTwi-hard\u201d fans get ready for the third \u201cTwilight\u201d installment, \u201cEclipse,\u201d to open in theaters Wednesday, few are likely to recognize the religious references in the film based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer, herself a Mormon.\n\u201cPeople make up all these Mormon references just so they can publish \u2018Twilight\u2019 articles in respectable publications like The New York Times,\u201d actor Robert Pattinson (Edward, the film\u2019s central vampire character), told Entertainment Weekly. \u201cEven Stephenie said it doesn\u2019t mean any of that.\u201d\nIt\u2019s possible that Meyer never set out to weave LDS imagery into the \u2018Twilight\u2019 background. Yet intentional or otherwise, it\u2019s hard to ignore:\n\u2022 The story\u2019s teenage heroine, Bella, avoids coffee, tea, alcohol and tobacco \u2014 not unlike the Mormons\u2019 \u201cWord of Wisdom\u201d health code. Bella also advises her father to \u201ccut back on steak,\u201d much like the LDS teaching to eat meat and poultry \u201csparingly.\u201d\n\u2022 Feminists have questioned Bella\u2019s frequent cooking and cleaning \u2014 household chores that reflect a strong Mormon work ethic and traditional roles for women. The official motto for mostly Mormon Utah is \u201cIndustry,\u201d and its symbol is the beehive.\n\u2022 A crucial Mormon belief is that humans can become divine. In the \u201cTwilight\u201d series, the Cullen family of vampires once was human but now lives without death in a resurrected condition. Meyer describes the Cullens, particularly Edward, as \u201cgodlike\u201d and \u201cinhumanly beautiful.\u201d\n\u2022 Mormons believe angels are resurrected beings of flesh and bone. The most familiar is Moroni, who stands high atop LDS temples, trumpet in hand. The Book of Mormon, the faith\u2019s trademark Scripture, says Moroni was a fifth-century prophet who visited church founder Joseph Smith. Smith described Moroni as radiating light and \u201cglorious beyond description.\u201d\nBella describes her vampire boyfriend, Edward, as an angel whom she cannot imagine \u201cany more glorious.\u201d Edward\u2019s skin sparkles in the sunlight, and he visits Bella\u2019s bedroom at night. But Mormon angels don\u2019t have wings; in the \u201cTwilight\u201d film, Edward sits in the science lab, the outstretched wings of a stuffed white owl just over his shoulders.\n\u2022 A unique LDS teaching is that marriages are \u201csealed\u201d for eternity; spouses are referred to as eternal companions. Bella describes her relationship with Edward as \u201cforever.\u201d\n\u2022 Bella and Edward\u2019s marriage, and her quick pregnancy, underscore the Mormon emphasis on the family. But Bella\u2019s half human/vampire fetus nearly destroys her, so her distraught husband suggests an abortion and artificial insemination. Mormons permit abortions if the mother\u2019s life is in danger, and artificial insemination is an option for married couples.\nBella quickly vetoes abortion and artificial insemination, reinforcing the essential Mormon teaching of individual choice, or \u201cagency.\u201d Meyer has said that the apple on the cover of the first Twilight novel represents Eve\u2019s choice in the Garden of Eden. The poster for \u201cEclipse\u201d includes the line: \u201cIt all begins ... with a choice.\u201d The patriarch of the vampire family, Carlisle Cullen, supports Bella when he explains that \u201cit wouldn\u2019t be right to make such a choice for her, to force her.\u201d\nBram Stoker probably never imagined that vampires would represent a religious doctrine. But more than a century later, Twilight shows that these nocturnal creatures can accommodate just about anything.\nAngela Aleiss teaches film and religion at the University of California, Los Angeles.\nI skimmed as much of the first three books as the Amazon preview reader would allow, and my own thought is that the Twilight series is just your basic modern bodice-ripper; lots of passion and lust and a strong message throughout that the romantic relationship is what gives meaning to life. Which means it's probably much more dangerous to teenage girls than secret Mormonism or references to the occult would be.\nGreat point Rachel.",

One out of 10 Americans uses five or more.\nThe CDC\u2019s National Center for Health Statistics Data Brief says cholesterol and pain medications are popular among Americans between the ages of 20-59. The largest category: anti-depressants.\nFor your workers over 60, cholesterol treatments are the most popular followed by diuretics and high blood pressure.\nThere are two ways to look at prescription drug use at your company.\nYou want your employees to go to their physicians. If they are prescribed a drug, you want them to adhere to the proper dosage and schedule. Most people don\u2019t. Part of your wellness strategy should be about compliance.\nYou and the employee both invest in these drugs. For an employee with one health risk factor, you spend on average $568 more a year on prescriptions. The cost jumps to an annual average of $1,554 for an employee with two risk factors and $3,746 for an employee with three risk factors.\nSo, if you are making the investment, you want the employee to reap the benefits. It is good for both of you.\nI\u2019d like to propose another thought. If you look at the categories of drugs noted above, most of them have connections to unhealthy lifestyles. Regular exercise and a good diet could eliminate some of the need for the heart and cholesterol medications.\nExercise reduces stress and makes you feel better. Mindfulness training helps people live in the present. Perhaps those solutions could ease usage of some of the depression-related drugs, too.\nYou have a lot to save if you help your employees become healthier and do not need to take as many medications that are lifestyle-related. In a previous article, I highlighted Joe, who works for one of our clients and is an active participant in our wellness program. Through exercise and diet, Joe lost enough weight he was able to stop taking his Type 2 Diabetes medications. This one change personally saved Joe $2,000 a year from his out-of-pocket drug costs.\nBased on this study for the years of 2007 and 2008, and published in 2010, the percentage of Americans who took at least one prescription drug increased by 10 percent over the previous decade; multiple drug use increased by 20 percent; usage of five or more prescription drugs increased by 70 percent.\nDoctors are prescribing drugs to solve the many issues we all face, but you have your own prescription \u2014 wellness.\nWe live in a world where everyone wants the magic pill. So far, a magic pill doesn\u2019t exist. And, if it did, it would come with two paragraphs of negative side effects.\nHowever, a sustainable, wellness program can work some magic to help your employees. The side effects: healthier, engaged, and more productive employees.\nSign me up to that prescription plan! How about you?\nIs a brand name better?\nSaving lives and saving dollars",

        "raw_content": "De Jure (Pretoria) vol.47 n.1 Pretoria Jan. 2014\nThe regime of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits in South Africa and a critical analysis of the concept of unduly benefited\nDie leerstuk van die verbeurdverklaring van vermo\u00ebnsregtelike voordele in Suid-Afrika en 'n kritiese ontleding van die konsep van onbehoorlike voordeel\nMotseotsile Clement Marumoagae\nLLB LLM AIPSA Dip Insolvency. Supervisory Lecturer, Law Clinic, North West University (Mahikeng Campus)\nHierdie artikel poog om die verbeurdverklaring van vermo\u00ebensregtelike voordele van die huwelik in die Suid-Afrikaanse reg volledig te bespreek. Die Suid-Afrikaanse howe is gereeld genader om sulke bevele in egskeidings sake te maak vandat die Romeins-Hollandsereg in Suid-Afrika aangeneem is. Hierdie kwessie is eers in 1979 in die Wet op Egskeidings artikel 9(1) gereguleer. Hierdie artikel fokus spesifiek op artikel 9(1) van die Wet en bespreek die faktore wat die howe in ag mag neem as verbeurdverklaringsbevele toegestaan word. Daar word egter geargumenteer dat die howe gevaal het om artikel 9(1) behoorlik te interpreter, aangesien hulle nie riglyne in verband met die betekenis van \"onbehoorlike voordeel\" (soos dit in die wetsartikel verskyn) voorsien het nie.\nThe object of this paper is not simply to narrate the law relating to forfeiture of patrimonial benefits in South Africa, but to provide an in-depth examination of this area of our family law which, in my opinion, has not been adequately covered in recent literature.1 This paper is necessary not only in academic circles, but also as a point of reference for family law practitioners. Since the adoption of the Roman-Dutch law in South Africa, our courts have, for decades, been called upon to decide whether or not to grant an order of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits in divorce matters.2 However, the concept of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits was legislated in 1979 by the Divorce Act.3 Section 9(1) of the Act provides factors to be taken into consideration by a court when granting a forfeiture order.4 This section directs that a forfeiture order should be granted in circumstances where, if the order is not granted, the one party will be unduly benefited in relation to the other. However, the Act neither provides the definition of the phrase \"unduly benefited\" nor does it clarify what is meant by this phrase in the context of the Act.5 It is even more concerning that our courts have generally failed, neglected or refrained from explaining or interpreting what this phrase entails, despite this phrase being at the heart of section 9(1) of the Act.\nThe purpose of this paper is to discuss section 9(1) of the Act as well as to explain what is meant by \"unduly benefited\" in the said section. I will argue that in order for our courts to adequately discharge divorce matters where forfeiture of patrimonial benefits has been claimed, there must be a clear and concise interpretation and guidance from our courts as to what is meant by \"unduly benefited\" in the said section. Even though I do not intend to provide a definition in this paper, I will nonetheless unpack the phrase in an attempt to understand what it's possible meaning can be. In the first part of this paper, I will briefly discuss the development of the South African forfeiture of patrimonial benefits regime and demonstrate how South African courts have approached section 9(1) of the Act.\n2 1 The Guilty Principle\nAt common law, marriage was \"to last during the lifetime of the parties; and no divorce was allowed, but by the death of one of the parties, or on account of preceding adultery\".6 As such, divorce was based on the fault principle where the court had to decide the guilt or innocence of a spouse. The common law position was that the guilty spouse should not be allowed to benefit from his or her wrong doing.7 At common law, \"if either of the consorts commits adultery, he or she will forfeit thereby, for the benefit of the injured party, whatever either of them would otherwise have been entitled to by the local law or ante-nuptial contract\".8 De Korte J in Mulder v Mulder,9 was called upon to decide whether the court has the power to make any order regarding what was brought into the marriage by the guilty party. He was of the opinion that the court has the right to declare that all property brought into the marriage by the guilty party shall be forfeit in favour of the other spouse.10\nKotze JP differed from the position adopted by De Korte J in Ferguson v Ferguson where he held that:\nIt was held by Esselen and De Korte JJ, in the case of Mulder v Mulder ... that property brought into community by a wife guilty of adultery may be forfeited in favour of her husband. Jorissen J however, dissented from this view and thought that the guilty wife could only be declared to have forfeited any benefits which she would have derived from her husband in consequence of the community of property, but not also any property which she herself brought into the community. ... There are decisions of the Dutch courts which support the view taken by Jorissen J and which, with respect, I have always considered to be the correct opinion on the subject. . The passage in van Leeuwen's Commentaries, which I have already quoted, can certainly not be said to mean that the guilty spouse forfeits everything that he or she may have brought into the community. . That this is so is clear from what is said by him in ch. 37, sec. 8, where, treating of the rights of the injured spouse in case of adultery, van Leeuwen observes that 'the adulterer forfeits to the injured party everything which, according to the common law or by antenuptial contract or otherwise, would have been acquired by him out of the property of his spouse.' And he mentions a decision pronounced on the 19th February, 1609, by the Court of Holland to that effect. This decision is also alluded to in Lybrechts and Kersteman (loc. cit.). So in van den Berg's Nederl. Advysboek, cons. 118, at p. 298, there is an opinion precisely identical with what is stated by van Leeuwen.11\nThe Ferguson case referred to above, was instrumental in explaining and clarifying forfeiture jurisprudence as it is applied in South Africa today. This case in actual fact, drew a road map for practitioners and judicial officers of how to understand the regime of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits. This case was decided on the strength of Jorrisen J's minority judgment in Mulder v Mulder.12 The essence of Jorrisen J's minority judgment was that it does not make sense for a person to bring property or assets into the marriage only to be told that because of his or her wrongdoing which led to the breakdown of the marriage, he or she would lose such property or assets as a punishment for his or her guilt.13 The effect of the Ferguson decision and the minority judgment in Mulder was that on divorce only benefits which are derived from the marriage can be forfeited.14 The guilty party was allowed to keep property that he or she brought to the marriage, in that he or she only forfeited property which was acquired during the subsistence of the marriage.15 Furthermore, at common law, factors which courts took into account on divorce when granting a forfeiture order were \"adultery\" and \"malicious desertion\".16 Either of the said factors, if proven, would suffice for the innocent spouse to be granted forfeiture.17\nThe doctrine of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits was governed at common law by the wide legal principle of general operation that a man cannot take advantage of his own fault.18 However, at common law, forfeiture does not follow divorce automatically; a decree of forfeiture would not be granted unless there was a special prayer for it.19 A forfeiture order would be refused at common law if the court was satisfied that the party claiming forfeiture has, during the marriage, been accessory to or connived in the adultery complained of or has condoned the adultery complained of or that he or she has been guilty of adultery during the marriage.20 It is evident that at common law there was no formal assessment of whether any party would be benefited or even unduly benefited if the order of forfeiture was not made. There was no objective criterion to follow to establish whether a forfeiture order was competent to be made, hence the courts embarked upon an enquiry to establish the fault of one party as opposed to the other.\n2 2 Abolition of the Guilty Principle and the Investigation by the South African Law Reform Commission21\nSouth African courts derived their powers to grant forfeiture orders on divorce directly from the common law.22 As such, courts granted forfeiture of patrimonial benefits on the same grounds as they granted divorce orders, adultery and malicious desertion.23 In the late 1910s, courts started moving away from treating adultery as a crime when granting divorce orders and started recognising that divorce ought to be granted when the marital contract between spouses has broken.24 Courts were also not willing to order forfeiture of patrimonial benefits against the \"guilty\" party who contributed to the acquisition of the property within the marriage.25 However, our courts continued to treat divorce cases on \"the guilt\" (or fault) principle, namely on the unrealistic assumption that, in every divorce action, only one of the spouses is \"to blame\" for the breakdown of the marriage, the other spouse being completely \"innocent\".26 As such, the guilt principle was regarded as determinative with regard to the forfeiture of patrimonial benefits of the marriage.27 This was clearly undesirable as it did not properly cater for both litigants before the court, because it is possible that blame can be apportioned between the spouses. Furthermore, by relying on the guilt principle, courts prevented themselves from properly evaluating the nature of the relationship between the spouses in order to properly assess whether or not forfeiture of patrimonial benefits was an appropriate remedy.\nIn 1935, South Africa saw the promulgation of the now repealed Divorce Laws Amendment Act,28 which introduced two further grounds for divorce; incurable insanity for not less than seven years and, the imprisonment of one spouse for at least five years after such spouse has been declared to be an habitual criminal.29 However, this innovation did not have any impact on the regime of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits.30 Himonga correctly argues that \"in accordance with the function of a forfeiture order as a punishment of the guilty 'spouse' for his or her misconduct, forfeiture could not be ordered against the defendant in a divorce action based on his or her incurable insanity for the guilty principle did not apply in such a case\".31 Incurable insanity was the only ground for divorce which was not based on the matrimonial misconduct of the spouse whose insanity was declared incurable, but on the objective fact that in reality no marriage existed and thus it was justified that the marriage should be dissolved.32\nThe shortcomings of the South African divorce law and the regime of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits until 1978 attracted severe criticism from academics and legal practitioners.33 In 1974 the state instructed the South African Law Commission (SALC), as it then was, to inquire into the South African divorce law, which the SALC interpreted to mandate an investigation into \"improving this branch of law and adapting it to the requirements of the present-day conditions\".34 At the beginning of 1975 the SALC embarked upon an enquiry into the defects in the existing divorce laws and possible reform measures.35 The initiative of the SALC led to the publication of a SALC Report on the Law of Divorce and Matters Incidental Thereto.36 This report among others recognised that:\nMost of the objections to our law of divorce can be traced back to the guilty principle on which the common law grounds are based. It is contended that it is unrealistic to proceed from the assumption that the blame for the breakdown of the marriage lies only with one of the spouses while the other is completely innocent. In by far the majority of cases both parties are to a greater or lesser extent to blame for their marriage breakdown.37\nDue to the fact that the South African divorce law in 1978 provided that the court had no discretion to deny a forfeiture order if an innocent party claimed for it, the SALC was of the view that this rule was too rigid and failed to take into account the fact that both spouses might be to blame for the breakdown of the marriage.38 The SALC refused to recommend scrapping the forfeiture concept altogether, but recommended that fault be only one of several factors taken into account in forfeiture decisions and not the sole factor.39 The SALC made it clear that it was ideologically unsupportable to base the law of divorce on the guilty principle and that it was equally unrealistic to assume that fault for the marital breakdown lay with only one party to the marriage. The SALC stated further that:\nIn truth, the essence of divorce is the candid acceptance on the part of both parties that the marriage has failed. The Commission recognised further that the disintegration of marriages resulted from a variety of contributory factors and social problems, and was not always, or exclusively, due to marital misconduct. Accordingly, the primary aim of a sound law of divorce is to take account of the social reality of marital break-down, while at the same time providing for the protection of the interests of society in general and of its weaker members in particular. For this reason the Commission proposed that where the marital relationship had in fact broken down irretrievably a decree of divorce should be granted. 40\nThe investigation by and the recommendations of the SALC, led to the promulgation of the Act.41 This was a remarkable development in the South African law of divorce which effectively resulted in the \"guilt\" and \"fault\" principles being done away with as grounds for divorce.42 It has been argued that \"the reform of the law of divorce had as its primary objective the formulation of realistic rules for the dissolution of marriages: rules which make it possible to dissolve failed marriages in a way that results in the possible least disruption for the spouses and their dependants, and that best safeguards the interest of minor children\".43 The Act shaped the forfeiture jurisprudence in South Africa, which was somewhat uncertain before its enactment.\n3 Forfeiture of Patrimonial Benefits under the Divorce Act 70, 1979\n3 1 Section 9(1)\nThe Act came into operation on 1 July 1979 and totally reformed the South African divorce law.44 Forfeiture of patrimonial benefits is dealt with in section 9 of the Act which provides that:\n(1) When a decree of divorce is granted on the ground of the irretrievable break-down of a marriage the court may make an order that the patrimonial benefits of the marriage be forfeited by one party in favour of the other, either wholly or in part, if the court, having regard to the duration of the marriage, the circumstances which gave rise to the break-down thereof and any substantial misconduct on the part of either of the parties, is satisfied that, if the order for forfeiture is not made, the one party will in relation to the other be unduly benefited.\nFor the purposes of this paper, emphasis is placed on section 9(1) of the Act, as it is the subsection which courts have often been requested to interpret.45 This subsection mandates courts to consider three factors before granting a forfeiture order: The duration of the marriage; the circumstances which gave rise to the break-down thereof; and any substantial misconduct on the part of either of the parties. It is not clear as to what is regarded as a long or short marriage duration. However, what is clear from the courts is that when the marriage is regarded by a court as of short duration, the court will order forfeiture if it is established that if the order is not made one party will be unduly benefited.46 In Swanepoel v Swanepoel,47 the court held that a marriage in community of property which was concluded on 15 December 1990, where one of the parties left the common home on 4 June 1995, was of a short duration.48 Similarly, in Malatji v Malatji,49 where lobola was paid for the defendant during October 2001, the parties married in community of property on 14 February 2002 and the defendant left the common home during June 2003, the marriage was held to be of short duration.50 The Act does not provide guidance as to how the courts should go about establishing that a marriage is of either long or short duration. It seems it is left to the courts to make their own pronouncement based on the facts of each case without any legislative guidance.\nThe Act does not determine what circumstances may be considered by the courts in assessing what led to the breakdown of the marriage. Cases are also not explicit on this point. It seems however, that such an analysis will be made on a case-to-case basis and there is no closed list of factors which may be taken into consideration.51 Misconduct itself is not a factor which can bring about a forfeiture order, such misconductmust be substantial.52 It is worth noting that the concept of substantial misconduct is not really defined in the Act, and it is unclear what exactly it entails. Our courts have also not been helpful in this regard. However, in order to establish substantial misconduct in any given case, there is a need to assess the extent, nature and gravity of the conduct which gave rise to the breakdown of the marriage.53\nEven though fault is no longer a ground for divorce, it nonetheless remains an important consideration when a court is called upon to make an order of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits.54 At least two factors listed in section 9(1) of the Act contain elements of fault. The court is empowered to look at the circumstances which led to the breakdown of the marriage, and to ensure whether or not there was any substantial misconduct on the part of either of the parties before the court. When parties allege circumstances which, according to them, led to the breakdown of the marriage, they may apportion blame to the other, thereby establishing the fault of the other party. This will be taken into consideration by the court.\nInitially, there was uncertainty whether courts granting a forfeiture order were obliged to have regard to all the factors listed in section 9(1) of the Act. It was not clear whether all these factors must be present and proven to justify a basis for a forfeiture order. In other words, should one factor be absent, then the court should deny a forfeiture order. In Matyila v Matyila,55 the court held that all three factors in section 9(1) had to be alleged and proven and that there is no indication that the court may have reference to only one such factor.56 There were however, other courts which were of the view that substantial misconduct was the most important factor that must be proven before a court can grant a forfeiture order.57 In other words there must be proof of substantial misconduct leading to the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. This position became evident in the case of Singh v Singh,58 where a husband of 22 years, accused his wife of, inter alia, leaving the common home, committing adultery during the last two years of the marriage and neglecting her marital duties. The wife contended that she left the matrimonial home due to her husband's mistreatment of her but admitted her adultery. The court found the wife's misconduct to be \"substantial\" and held that such misconduct outweighed the fact that the marriage had lasted for more than twenty years. The court accordingly ordered forfeiture against the wife on the strength of her misconduct.59\n\"I have little doubt that notwithstanding the introduction into our law of the 'no fault' principle to divorce, a party's misconduct may be taken into account in considering the circumstances which gave rise to the breakdown of the marriage\".\nThe effect of the Singh case is that, in the absence of substantial misconduct, the court will not order forfeiture of benefits.60 This, despite the fact that there is evidence before the court relating to other section 9(1) factors warranting forfeiture of benefits. For instance, if the marriage is of relatively short duration and there is evidence that one spouse entered into the marriage for the sole purpose of benefiting materially.61 The question of one party being unduly benefited if the forfeiture order was not granted was not entertained in the two cases referred to above. These two cases seem to suggest that such an assessment was not important. The decision in Matyila was held to be clearly wrong in Binda v Binda.62\nIn Klerck v Klerck, it was held that:\n... it was not the intention of the Legislature that substantial misconduct or any of the other factors mentioned in section 9(1) had to be present before the Court could grant an order of forfeiture: what the Court had to do was to ask itself whether one party would be unduly benefited if an order of forfeiture was not made and in order to answer that question regard should be had to the duration of the marriage, the circumstances in which it broke up and, if present, substantial misconduct on the part of one or both parties. Further, that in the circumstances of the present case where there was no evidence of substantial misconduct on the part of the plaintiff or the defendant, because of the short duration of the marriage the plaintiff would be unduly benefited if an order of forfeiture was not made.63\nIt has been argued that \"the court is empowered to grant forfeiture of patrimonial benefits even in the absence of substantial misconduct, as the legislature had clearly eschewed the principle of fault by enacting the Act and that fault should not be permitted to creep in through forfeiture of benefits\".64 It was further stated in Englebrecht v Engelbrecht,65 that, in the granting of the forfeiture order, the legislature did not elevate fault (substantial misconduct) prominently above all other factors listed in section 9(1) of the Act.66 It is now evident that courts were beginning to realise that there was no hierarchy as far as factors mentioned in section 9(1) are concerned, and that all the factors listed were equally important hence no one factor amongst them was individually decisive. This essentially meant that each factor on its own, or with another, was capable of convincing the court to grant a forfeiture order.\nEven though the court made an assessment as to whether one party would be unduly benefited if an order of forfeiture was made in Klerck, it nevertheless failed to explain what the legislature meant by the phrase \"unduly benefited\". The court simply looked at the length of the marriage and found that the short duration of the marriage warranted an order of forfeiture being made, without explaining how the short duration of the marriage would result in one party being unduly benefited if forfeiture was not ordered. I am alive to the fact that there are instances where it might be said that it is clear that one party will be unduly benefited, especially if the marriage was of relatively short duration and it appears a party wanted to cash in on the marriage, and end it quickly. Here he or she should not benefit. However, things are seldom that simple, hence clear guidance as to what amounts to \"unduly benefited\" is needed, especially from our courts.\nIn 1993, the Appellate Division67 was presented with an opportunity to clarify the South African forfeiture of benefits jurisprudence in the case of Wijker v Wijker.68 Even though this case is celebrated as having clarified the law, especially with regard to the approach our courts should adopt when dealing with the factors in section 9(1), I am of the view that it missed a golden opportunity to provide clarity on what is meant by \"unduly benefited\". In this case, the court held that \"the context and the subject matter make it abundantly clear that the legislature could never have intended that the factors mentioned in the section should be considered cumulatively\".69 This means that the party seeking a forfeiture order need not allege and prove all the factors listed in section 9(1) to be successful. A party seeking an order of forfeiture of benefits will be successful if he or she can prove that as a result of one or more of the factors listed in section 9(1), the other spouse would be unduly benefited if forfeiture of benefits is not ordered.70\nThe approach in Wijker was followed and confirmed in Botha v Botha,71 where the court further clarified that \"the trial court may therefore not have regard to any factors other than those listed in section 9(1) in determining whether or not the spouse against whom the forfeiture order is claimed will, in relation to the other spouse, be unduly benefited if such an order is not made\".72 This simply means that the factors listed in section 9(1) are a closed list, hence the court will not entertain any other factor. Unfortunately, the court in Botha also failed to analyse what the legislature meant in section 9(1) by \"unduly benefited\". I respectfully submit that the court should have done so irrespective of whether or not it was called upon to do so by the parties. Furthermore, the court should, at the very least, have made obiter remarks regarding the phrase \"unduly benefited\".\nSection 9(1) further grants courts the discretion, after granting a decree of divorce, to decide whether or not to grant a forfeiture of patrimonial benefits order having regard to the circumstances of the particular case, the nature of the evidence led and the facts proven before the court. When exercising their discretion, courts should be careful not to refuse such an order when it is competent to do so in the circumstances of the particular matter. Courts should also be careful to apply their minds thoroughly to the facts before the court when granting forfeiture of patrimonial benefits orders, especially in undefended divorces. The decision whether or not to grant forfeiture orders, lies with the court. It has been held however, that the court's discretion is restricted to a consideration of the three factors mentioned in section 9(1) of the Act, thus no other factor may be taken into account by a court when granting a forfeiture order.73\n4 Unduly Benefited\nIt is worth noting that although Wijker has given some clarity, this area of South African family law still needs to be further clarified, more especially with regard to what section 9(1) means by \"unduly benefited\". This phrase has never been under judicial scrutiny despite being at the heart of section 9(1). Our courts have been really creative in manoeuvring around this phrase without attaching any real significance to it. I therefore submit that a proper contextual analysis by our courts is needed in order to provide guidance on what is meant by \"unduly benefited\", in section 9(1). I am of the view that such an analysis will go a long way in assisting our courts to reach well-reasoned and just decisions. Such a positive step by our courts may inspire the legislature to amend the Act and provide relevant definitions which are currently absent from the Act.\nI am not proposing that courts should provide a concise and precise definition of \"unduly benefited\", rather, they should provide guidelines on how this phrase should be understood, as this will assist litigants in convincing the court to either grant or refuse a forfeiture of patrimonial benefits order. Interpreting and contextualising this phrase would breathe life into section 9(1) and would lead to it being understood within a social context. I submit that this approach would make it even easier for the court to marry the facts before it with the law and thus properly articulate how it has arrived at its decision. This will also go a long way in assisting parties before the court in understanding the reasoning behind the order. It is important that courts start deciding cases relating to section 9(1) of the Act by interpreting and providing clarity as to what is meant by the phrase \"unduly benefited\" in the context of that section. Surely it cannot be regarded as being sufficient to merely assess the facts and reason in such a manner as to force them to align with one or more of the factors listed in section 9(1), and thereby conclude that one party will be unduly benefited should the order of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits not be made, without a proper interpretation and guidance regarding the meaning of \"unduly benefited\".\nIt is not my purpose to provide a definition of what \"unduly benefited\" means but I will make some suggestions in order to spark academic and judicial debate which may lead to a working definition. I submit that this phrase can be understood as a benefit (being property subject to the joint estate) accruing to a person whose conduct does not justify such a person receiving such a benefit. In other words, the person to whom the benefit is due has, through his or her conduct, shown him- or herself not to be entitled, worthy, warranted or deserving to receive such a benefit.\nAn example of such conduct would be if A marries B in community of property knowing B to be wealthy and under a mistaken impression that B suffers from a particular disease and would die soon. Shortly after the marriage A discovers that B is actually healthy and proceeds to file for divorce. Under these circumstances, should A be allowed to receive half of the joint estate which, by virtue of the marriage in community of property, he or she is entitled to? A would, In my opinion, be unduly benefited thereby. Such a benefit is undue because, at the time of entering the marriage, A was motivated by his or her expectation of being rewarded from the proceeds of B's estate. This was effectively a marriage of convenience. A is not deserving of the benefit which would ordinarily accrue to him or her. These facts will be used in assessing the \"duration of the marriage\" factor listed in section 9(1) and this will be a basis to award forfeiture of benefits. It is thus evident from the example I provided that should A nonetheless receive a benefit despite his or her conduct, he or she will be unduly benefited in the circumstances.\nIt is trite that divorce dissolves a marriage from the moment that the court grants the divorce decree and makes its pronouncement. The joint estate in a marriage in community of property usually comprises both the movable and immovable assets acquired before and during the subsistence of the marriage. A spouse to such a marriage cannot argue that he or she acquired an asset before the marriage and therefore such asset does not form part of the joint estate. In the event of a marriage in community of property being terminated by a decree of divorce and the spouses failing to agree on the division of assets, the court may appoint curators or liquidators to divide the property.74 Absent a forfeiture order, the assets of the joint estate will be equally divided between the spouses.\nThis paper first discussed the common law position and then looked at how South African courts treated cases relating to forfeiture of patrimonial benefits before the promulgation of the Act in 1979. It was shown that the courts relied on the guilt principle in order to reach their decisions. Since the coming into effect of the Act, South Africa's courts have been called upon to pronounce on section 9(1), however, they have been inconsistent regarding the weight to be attached to each of the factors listed in section 9(1) when granting an order of forfeiture of patrimonial benefits. It was only in 1992 that the Appellate Division in Wijker \"clarified\" the position and stated that all three factors do not have to be present and they need not be considered cumulatively. I submit that South African courts generally, have failed to properly interpret section 9(1) of the Act as they have neglected to provide guidance on what the phrase \"unduly benefited\" means within the context of the Act. I have argued that should the court give due weight to the said phrase, this will go a long way in assisting them to reach just decisions.\n1 Barratt, Domingo, Mahler-Coetzee, Olivier & Denson Law of Persons and the Family (2012); [ Links ] Himonga \"Persons and Family\" in F du Bois (ed) Wille's Principles of South African Law (2007) 145-394; [ Links ] Sch\u00e1fer Family Law Service (Issue 54) (October 2010) 26-27; Cockrell, Keithtley, Sinclair, Heaton, Van Heerden, Clark, Mosikatsana & Cockrell Boberg's The Law of Persons and Family Law (1999); Cronje, Bernard & Olivier The South African Law of Persons and Family Law (1990); Eekelaar & Nhlapo The Changing Family: Family Forms and Family Law (1998); Heaton South African Family Law (3 ed) (2010); Monareng A Simple Guide to South African Family Law (2008); Robinson, Human, Boshoff, Smith & Carnelly Introduction to South African Family Law (4 ed) (2009).\n2 Mackarness \"Roman Dutch Law\" 1906 (1) Journal of the Society of Comparative Legislation 39.

It is worth noting that adultery was regarded as a crime in both Roman and Roman-Dutch law. See also Murison v Murison 1930 AD 159.\n7 Quansay \"The order of forfeiture of benefits in divorce proceedings in Botswana: A relic of a bygone era or a ghost of the past?\" 2005 (1) University of Botswana LJ 12\u03b8.\n8 Van Leeuwen (1820) 424.\n9 Mulder v Mulder (1 885-1 888) 2 SAR TS 238.\n10 Idem 238 (see the headnote).\n11 (1906) 20 EDC 221. Kotz JP was further of the view that \"the headnote of this consultation erroneously states that the guilty husband forfeits all his property in favour of his wife, for the opinion itself at p. 298 distinctly says that the guilty husband only forfeits all benefits which he would have derived from the property of his wife. Consultation 334 in vol. 1 of the Dutch Consultations, and van Zutphen (Neerl. Practyck, sub voce Overspel, n. 1, p. 591), likewise agree with van Leeuwen. Nor can van der Keessel (Thes. 88) be interpreted in any other way, especially as he refers to a decision of the Supreme Court of Holland of the 19th February, 1743, where a wife guilty of adultery, on a decree of divorce being granted against her, was declared to have forfeited 'all such privileges and benefits as she might otherwise have enjoyed from the said marriage' (vide Lybrechts, loc cit.) The better opinion is that laid down by van Leeuwen. The effect of the doctrine adopted in Mulder v Mulder would be that, if a millionaire were to marry a poor woman in community of property, he could, on a dissolution of the marriage by reason of his adultery, be declared to have forfeited the whole of his fortune. It seems to me that such a doctrine carries its own refutation with it, and I am satisfied that it is not the correct rule of law. The opinion expressed by van Leeuwen is also that adopted in this colony, as appears from the reported cases. I need but refer to Dieperink v Dieperink (Buch. 1877, p. 92), Hasler v Hasler (13 SC 377), and McGregor v McGregor (15 CTR 114). It is a matter of daily and uniform practice in actions for divorce, where a forfeiture is asked, to declare, on a dissolution of the marriage, that the guilty spouse has forfeited, not his or her property brought into the marriage, but the benefits arising from the marriage. The ground for divorce is in the present instance, however, not adultery, but malicious desertion on the part of the wife\".\n12 (1885-1888) 2 SAR TS 238 241.\n13 Idem 241.\n14 It is worth noting that it is a moot point in divorce law today as to whether a person can forfeit property he or she brought into the marriage. See W v W 2011 (1) SA 545 (GNP) where it was stated that, \"the central question in this divorce action is whether a party to a marriage in community of property can be ordered to forfeit an asset she/he has brought into the joint estate. The answer should, in my view be in the negative. The essence and nature of the twin concepts of marriage in community of property and forfeiture of benefits arising from such marriage is this: a party can only benefit from an asset brought into the estate by the other party, not from his own: a fortiori such a party cannot be ordered to forfeit her/his own asset. This is the primary basis on which I conclude in this judgment that forfeiture should not be ordered\". With respect, I am of the view that this issue is far from being settled in our law, until either the Supreme Court of Appeal or the Constitutional Court pronounce on it.\n15 Mulder op cit 238.\n16 See also Estate Heinamann & Ors v Heinamann 1919 A.D 126 and Allen v Allen 1951 (3) SA 230(A) 327, the \"innocent\" spouse had to pray for an order that the \"guilty\" spouse should forfeit the benefits that have accrued to him or her during the duration of the marriage. The court would make such an order if the \"innocent\" spouse alleged and proved that the \"guilty\" spouse had committed adultery or was guilty of malicious desertion.\n17 Ibid. See also Quansay (2005) 1 University of Botswana LJ 120, who argued that \"the genesis of the order for the forfeiture of benefits in Roman-Dutch Law is said to be found in Article 18 of the Political Ordinance, 1980 of Holland. This article dealt expressly only with divorce on the ground of adultery and reserved to the plaintiff his Roman law rights conceived as a penalty for the disruption of the marriage. When malicious desertion was eventually accepted as a ground for divorce in Holland, forfeiture of benefits was extended to cover this ground as well by drawing analogy from Article 18 of the Political Ordinance. Thus, forfeiture of benefits was as readily decreed on the ground of malicious desertion as on the ground of adultery\".\n18 Murison op cit 159, \"Digest 50 17 134 and Digest (24 3 10 1) cited in footnote to that maxim. Matthaeus De Criminibus on Digest (48.3) Note 11 says that a man who has married a woman knowing that she was immodest and hoping that she would commit adultery so that he may get her dowry cannot recover. The same principle applies in the case of a man who puts his wife on the road to ruin after marriage\".\n19 See Potter v Potter (8 EDC 103) & Peter's v Peters (1906) TS 515.\n20 Lee An Introduction to Roman-Dutch Law (4 ed) (1946) 87.\n21 This commission used to be known as the \"South African Law Commission\" but is now referred to as the South African Law Reform Commission (hereinafter referred to as the SALC).\n22 See Hahlo Law of Husband and Wife (4 ed) (1975) 430 and Himonga in F du Bois 339.\n23 Murison \"where a marriage is dissolved on the ground of adultery committed by one of the spouses, such spouse forfeits any benefits derived from the marriage, and the Court has no discretion to withhold an order for forfeiture of benefits if such an order be claimed by the injured spouse\". See also, Bodley v Bodley 1911 TPD 756 at 756, where the court stated that \"the practice in South Africa is that forfeiture may also be granted in cases of malicious desertion\".\n24 Estate Heinamann & Ors v Heinamann 126, the court held that \"forfeiture of the benefits of the marriage by the guilty party stands on a different footing. Forfeiture is decreed not on the ground that adultery is a crime and as a punishment to the guilty party, but on the ground that the contract between the parties has been broken. It is as readily decreed on the ground of malicious desertion as on the ground of adultery\".\n25 Celliers v Celliers 1904 TS 926 where it was held that \"in an action for divorce on the ground of adultery the plaintiff is entitled to claim a division of the joint estate and a forfeiture of any benefits which the guilty party may have derived from the marriage; but the Court will not deprive the guilty party of the share of the joint estate which he or she may have contributed\".\n26 Cockrell 597.

See also Divorce Laws Amendment Act 32 of 1935 s2(b). It is not clear however, whether courts were prepared to grant forfeiture orders against spouses who were declared habitual criminals and imprisoned for more than 5 years.

When a court of competent jurisdiction grants a decree of divorce that partnership ceases. The question then arises, who is to administer what was originally the joint property, in respect of which both parties continue to have rights? As a general rule there is no practical difficulty, because the parties agree upon a division of the estate, and generally the husband remains in possession pending such division. But where they do not agree the duty devolves upon the court to divide the estate, and the court has power to appoint some person to effect the division on its behalf. Under the general powers which the court has to appoint curators it may nominate and empower someone (whether he is called liquidator, receiver, or curator . perhaps curator is the better word) to collect, realise, and divide the estate. And that that has been the practice in South African courts is clear\".",

        "raw_content": "Portage County/Ravenna UFO chase 1966\nDiscussion in 'UFOs, Ghosts and Monsters' started by Magical Realist, Dec 8, 2016.\nModerator note: This thread was split from the following, more general, thread:\nhttp://www.sciforums.com/threads/fortean-phenomena.158279/\nPortage County UFO police chase:\nMagical Realist, Dec 8, 2016\nEyewitness accounts of the same object by totally credible witnesses. Compelling evidence for ufos.\nNo, not compelling by any stretch of the imagination. for the many reasons I have stated before in past debates.\nNo. It's the kind of usual second- or third-hand account that you always post.\nYou have provided no documentation to back up any of the story.\nAnd even if the policemen who were involved were telling what they regarded as the truth, it is very possible they were mistaken about what they thought they saw.\nThe conclusion reached by experts at the time was apparently that the men mistook the planet Venus and/or a passing satellite for an alien spaceship.\nIt's the kind of usual second- or third-hand account that you always post.\nRight..just like the evening news, documentaries, historical accounts, biographies, and just about everything people tell us happened to them.\nYou have provided no documentation to back up any of the story\nI don't have to. Nobody is insane enough to deny this famous sighting ever occurred. Well, not nobody it seems..\nAn unconfirmed story told by two or three policeman back in 1966 is hardly comparable to your average evening news bulletin.\nHistorians, documentary makers and biographers typically consult multiple independent sources before they start drawing conclusions.\nAnd extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence, as you know. Mundane claims ... well, not so much.\nI'm happy to accept that those policemen saw a light in the sky that they couldn't identify. But that's about the extent of the evidence, as far as I can tell.\nIs there anything more than their story?\nWhere's the evidence that the light they saw was an alien spacecraft?\nFor people too paranoid to believe the Portage County UFO encounter ever occurred, here's some supporting documentation on the case.\nhttp://www.nicap.org/portagedoc.htm\nWhat do you say it was? The planet Venus? lol!\nHere's an eyewitness's sketch of the object:\nThere are many countless possibilities from trickery/pranksters to atmospheric anomalies and mirages.\nThe point is as usual, you define the \"U\" in UFO to automatically mean Alien.\nStrange it may seem, unexplained it might be, but unidentified is what it is.\nI define UFO like this:\n\"An unidentified flying object, or UFO, in its most general definition, is any apparent anomaly in the sky that is not identifiable as a known object or phenomenon.\"---https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unidentified_flying_object\nNotice that the definition excludes already any natural or manmade cause. It's equivalent now to saying \"flying saucer\". The otherworldly nature of it is implicit in this definition. As such it has it's own typical traits and identifying characteristics.\nMagical Realist, Dec 10, 2016\nNo, that's just fabricated nonsense. It simply remains unidentified.\n(\u02cc\u028cna\u026a\u02c8d\u025bnt\u026a\u02ccfa\u026ad)\nnot identified or recognized: an unidentified man.\nunidentified - not yet identified; \"an unidentified species\"; \"an unidentified witness\"\nunknown - not known; \"an unknown amount\"; \"an unknown island\"; \"an unknown writer\"; \"an unknown source\"\nunidentified - being or having an unknown or unnamed source; \"a poem by an unknown author\"; \"corporations responsible to nameless owners\"; \"an unnamed donor\"\nhttp://www.thefreedictionary.com/unidentified\n\"The USAF defines a UFO as: Anything that relates to any airborne object which by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or which cannot be identified as a familiar object. (USAF Regulation 200-2).\"---http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=UFO\nI'll go along with that, for at least a small percentage of reported UFO's.\nStill though essentially, they remain as unexplained and unidentified.\nRather silly to jump to medically probing Aliens that flitter in and flitter out again, without making their supposed visitations official, particularly since they would really have nothing to fear.\nMagical Realist:\nAre you saying I am paranoid because I don't just take your word for it that this UFO sighting represents \"compelling\" evidence for alien spacecraft?\nThanks. That's interesting information, although a little light on.\nDo you know where I can find the \"extensive report\" on the case, that is referenced in those materials?\nI'd be interested to see, for example, what investigations were done regarding the numerous airplanes that were reported as interacting with passing the UFO. I note that nothing anomalous was apparently registered on any reported radar. Were military jets scrambled, or not? What about the passengers and crew on the commercial flight? Were any of them interviewed? What did they say?\nNot me. That was the speculation of certain military investigators, I believe.\nI like to keep an open mind until the evidence is in, as you know.\nYes. This is from one account, and it doesn't seem to exactly match certain other accounts or drawings. One other drawing, for example, only shows a simple ellipsoidal shape.\nSo, nothing compelling yet, but it is interesting. Got anything else?\nThat's it, then for the \"compelling\" evidence on that UFO thing? LOL.\nYou can't argue away a multiply-witnessed well documented case of 2 police cars chasing a elliptical glowing ufo for 50 miles on the freeway back in 1966. It happened. Deal with it.\nHi MR what do you think the object was from your research on the matter?\nYou can't argue away a multiply-witnessed well documented case...\nThe only documents I've seen so far have been \"witness\" statements.\nThis case has no photographs, no radar traces, no records of movements of any aircraft (military or civilian), no records of any physical evidence. And so far, while I've seen claims that somebody conducted an extensive investigation, I haven't seen the resulting report (if any).\nAll this happened, as you say, back in 1966, which is a very long time ago now. By the looks of it, as far as I can tell from the material presented so far, the incident wasn't very well investigated at the time.\n...of 2 police cars chasing a elliptical glowing ufo for 50 miles on the freeway back in 1966. It happened. Deal with it.\nWe know that two or three policemen thought they saw some kind of light, which they interpreted as a flying object. That's what we know happened. Everything else is mere speculation. Deal with it.\nA UFO..\nSo why do you insinuate that it is anything more?",

        "raw_content": "Storm as President Michel quits and names Faure as successor\nGoing: James Michel steps down as President in October\nA political storm erupted when President James Michel said he was resigning and will step down from his post in weeks.\nThe new majority opposition group Linyon Demokratik Seselwa (LDS) protested it was wrong that vice-president Danny Faure should automatically be sworn in as the new President of the Republic of Seychelles on 16th October.\nThe row came as the new National Assembly took office with the opposition in power for the first time.\nPolitical observers had wondered how the President, as leader of Parti Lepep, would work with a majority LDS group. They had the inkling of that on the first day.\nLDS blasted the handover of power as \u201cundemocratic\u201d and called for a new Presidential election. It said Danny Faure \u201chad no mandate\u201d to govern the country.\nLDS leader Roger Mancienne said the reasons given for Michel\u2019s resignation \u201cwere not sufficiently clear\u201d.\nHe went on: \u201cHis resignation was announced on the same day the new National Assembly met for the first time. We think it would be irresponsible of the President to make a decision on that basis.\u201d\nMancienne said that Faure \u201cdid not win this election and LDS is therefore calling for a new presidential election\u201d.\nHowever, Attorney General Ronny Govinden has said that the Seychelles\u2019 constitution allows the President to resign at any given time during his mandate.\n\u201cThere is no time limit when he can do that,\u201d he said.\nThe Seychelles\u2019 constitution makes provision for the vice-president to assume power in the event of the president\u2019s death, resignation or removal from office instead of allowing for fresh elections to take place.\nIn his resignation announcement 72-year-old President Michel thanked the people of Seychelles for their support.\nHe said: \u201cI am leaving power, but I am not abandoning you. For me, power is not an aim in itself but a means to do good. To do good for our people. Together we did it, as much as the means and circumstances permitted us.\n\u201cThe interest of the nation comes first. I am leaving the Office of the President with a sense of mission accomplished. During these 12 years that you gave me the honour and privilege to lead our nation, I have completed my responsibility and my duty.\u201d\nPresident Michel has already served two five-year terms and is about to complete 10 months in the third and final mandate.\nIn April, after his re-election in December, 2015, the National Assembly unanimously approved the constitutional amendment to limit the presidential and vice-presidential terms to two five-year mandates, down from three five-year terms.\nThe President asked the people of Seychelles to give Mr Faure and his team the same support that they had given him in the last 12 years.\n\u201cI will always thank you, people of Seychelles, for your support. Thank you for your trust in me. At the end of the day, there is nothing more important, more honourable, more noble, than national unity.\u201d\nThere was praise for the outgoing President but some critics were happy to see him go. One said: \u201cThings seem to be heading in the right direction in Seychelles for the first time since the reintroduction of multi-party democracy in 1992.\n\u201cIt is obvious that an old dictator like James Michel, just like his predecessor Albert Rene would never be able to operate in a democratic system of government where he would have to face a robust and intelligent group of opposition MNAs demanding transparent and efficient governance.\u201d\nHe adds: \u201cSo long James, you will certainly not be missed and Seychelles will be a lot better off without you\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Vukile Property Posts Dividend And Income Growth\n5 June 2018 | SA Views | Mark Mayer\nVukile Property Fund Limited (VKE) is a JSE-listed REIT, predominantly focused on retail property. It has a second listing on the Namibian Stock Exchange and was the first property company to be awarded REIT status on the JSE, a little more than 5 years ago (1 April 2013).\nOn Wednesday (30 May 2018), Vukile released its summarised year-end results for the period ending 31 March 2018. What follows hereunder is the highlights package.\nSummary of Vukile\u2019s financial performance\nOn the 31 March 2018, Vukile Property Fund\u2019s investments were valued at R19.1 billion. This represents a 40.4% increase over the March 2017 number, which came in at R13.6 billion. A large portion of the uptick in valuation comes from the more recent Spanish acquisitions which were valued at R4.5 billion as at 31 March 2018. Acquisitions for the year across the South African and Spanish territories amounted to R4.7 billion.\nThis significant activity was largely generated from the sale of properties (net proceeds of R175 million), the raising of debt (to the value of R3.1 billion) and the issuance of additional shares (R1.6 billion).\nVukile also reported on their ownership stake in several other listed entities. The ownership percentage across the three listed investments appear below:\n34.9% in Atlantic Leaf Properties, an associate, representing a carrying value of R1.2 billion.\n31.4% in Fairvest Property Holdings, valued at R595 million.\n26.3% in Gemgrow Properties (previously Synergy Income Fund), valued at R790 million.--\nThe results generally point to an improvement in both financial and operating metrics, with dividends for the six months ended 31 March 2018, increasing by a healthy 7.9% and resulting in a full year improvement of 7.7% to 168.82 cents per share.\nThe net profit (available for distribution) came in at R1.31 billion, beating last year\u2019s number (R1.12 billion) by approximately 17%.\nVukile has indicated to shareholders that for the short to medium term, it will limit its international expansion to Spain only. Locally, opportunities in South Africa will still be sought, and the expectations of the board are that balance sheet metrics should remain similar to that of the 2018 financial year.\nOn the local trading environment, the statement released by both the Chairman and CEO on behalf of the board of directors stated: \"While we are buoyed by the improving political and economic climate in South Africa, and the resultant uptick in consumer confidence, we are yet to see a tangible improvement in the trading environment. As such, we anticipate another challenging year ahead, largely in line with the operating conditions we endured over the past year. We do, however, expect to see an improvement in trading activity beyond next year.\"\nIn Spain, the group\u2019s Castellana asset is set to continue growing, and the group also anticipate improved profitability in the upcoming financial year as once-off costs incurred in this year will not repeat themselves going forward.\nCastellana is also expected to list on the Madrid Junior Board (MAB) in July 2018, but management are not planning to raise external capital on this listing.\nVukile further expects to grow dividends between 7.5% to 8.5% in the year ahead.\nSource: 10-year chart on Sharenet\nhttp://www.vukile.co.za/\nhttp://www.vukile.co.za/cmsAdmin/uploads/vukile-summarised-audited-results-31march2018.pdf\nhttp://www.sharenet.co.za/v3/quickshare.php?scode=VKE\nhttp://www.sharenet.co.za/v3/sens_display.php?tdate=20180530075000&seq=3&scode=VKE\nMark Mayer\ufffd\nInvestment Specialist at Discovery Invest\nMark graduated with a Business Science Degree from the University of Cape Town in 2007.

I read a good article last week on cosmetic surgery.\nI'm not really against cosmetic surgery.\nI used to say I'd never color my hair. Well, never say never.\nSo I will never say I will never have a facelift..... but this ARTICLE made me feel that I'm okay without one. (Well, for now.)\nI don't think I'd ever give myself one... but you never know....\n3. A while back Sam and I indulged in a not-the-most-healthy breakfast.\nBut oh, it was good.\nReally, these cinnamon rolls are amazing.... and of course easy to prepare. Mm.\n4. This Sunday - August 18 - Sam and I will be at Bear Valley Community Church in Colleyville for a book signing extravaganza!!\nThis is a book about how we started Bear Valley, and what and how I felt about it all. Sam offers his comments, but I wrote most of the book. (I guess that means I'm a 'writer' of a book!)\nIt's not a perfect book.... and yes, I would change some of it... but I will stand by it nonetheless. ... but if you happen to read it, be gracious and have mercy on me... and don't roll your eyes too much.\n(Soon we'll have it available on Kindle.)\n5.

        "title": "CUNNING STUNTS: A Q&A with Richard Rush \u00ab Spectacular Optical",
        "raw_content": "CUNNING STUNTS: AN INTERVIEW WITH RICHARD RUSH\nI\u2019ll be damned if I\u2019m gonna write some preamble explaining who Richard Rush is. You know and love his films even if you don\u2019t realize it. Psych-Out, Hells Angels on Wheels, The Savage Seven, The Stunt Man \u2013 everyone has their favourite (mine\u2019s Freebie and the Bean \u2013 even though I don\u2019t get to sop up Adam Roarke\u2019s gorgeous mug or Jack Starrett\u2019s menacing calm, the pioneering buddy-cop comedy stylings of Alan Arkin and James Caan are unparalleled). His work for AIP in the 60s transcended the studio\u2019s modest exploitation-film ambitions and gave him the chops to create what is probably the quintessential movie about the making of a movie: Oscar nominee The Stunt Man (check out Melissa Howard\u2019s review of The Stunt Man in the last issue of Spectacular Optical HERE). Richard Rush is one of those guys able to coalesce the most dazzling aspects of exploitation (fight choreography, car chases and stunts galore!!) with a heady philosophical insistence that could easily sideswipe you. I was thrilled for the opportunity to ask Rush some questions about the ideas and the people that have colored his particular universe.\nJack Starrett (right\nTell me about working with Jack Starrett on Hells Angels on Wheels! \u2013 I think he was an amazing talent that no one seems to talk about anymore. How would you describe him?\nStartling. The first time I worked with Jack Starrett, he walked into a room full of Hells Angeles having a party, where we were shooting, and he challenged them all. His personal presence was so dynamic that everyone was instantly intimidated and dominated. True, he was carrying a shot-gun, but that isn\u2019t what did it. It was his amazing presence. It was his total honesty and rare economy as an actor. He was really good. And his reality is magnified on screen, because no flaws show up to spoil it.\nWhat was it about Adam Rourke that made you work with him again and again as an actor? What I like about his characters is that they\u2019re so conflicted. Why do you think he never became a bigger star?\nI first met Adam at an open casting session, where he came to read for the role of leader of the Angels in \u201cHells Angeles on Wheels\u201d. I new after 60 seconds that he was my guy. But, I had a lot of others to read that afternoon, and since they had shown up, it was only ethical to read them. I told Adam to wait, but after a long while he got restless and wanted to leave. My beautiful assistant Sheila, got him to stay by telling him she knew me well enough to know that I was definitely going to cast him, She was right! Adam is a method actor, with years of training at the Actors Studio. It\u2019s a style I highly favor. And he was remarkably talented, original and open. I told him that his character was to be just like Emeliano Zapata, the great Mexican Revolutionary, with his men. And, he immediately became Zapata. To round out the character, we gave him a line from \u201cFaust\u201d, \u201cBetter to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven\u201d. Later on, Adam particularly loved playing his role in \u201cThe Stunt Man\u201d, and doing scenes with Peter O\u2019Toole, who really adored and respected Adam.\n- What was the reaction at the time to the Native American issues in The Savage Seven? Was this discussion fairly pioneering at the time? It seems like back then exploitation pictures were the only ones where Native Americans had a voice, even though they are often criticized for having white men play the aboriginal characters (or African American men, in the case of Max Julien!)\nAt that time, our originally atrocious treatment of the Indian population had come back into public awareness. So in a sense the picture was topically timely. The amazing thing about those exploitation pictures was that the production and turnover time was so fast, we cold actually deal with newsworthy topics, and they would still be around when we hit the screen. And so, one suddenly had a platform.\nHow influenced by spaghetti westerns was The Savage Seven?\nI was not consciously influenced at all by Spaghetti Westerns. For me the attraction to Savage Seven was that Cowboys and Indians could become Motorcycle gang and Indians, and I could simply replace the Cowboys horse with a Motorcycle. The metaphor and the reality is clear, as they jump fences and ride into battle.\nWhat was your relationship to the counterculture during your time with AIP? Those films seem equally sympathetic to and critical of the counterculture, as does your \u2018Mod Squad\u2019 episode, \u201cThe Guru\u201d.\nDean Stockwell in Psych-Out\nI thought of myself as part of the counterculture. I begged AIP to let me do a picture about the dazzling new Hippie phenomena. They agreed, only if I would make a sequel to Hells Angels on Wheels. I said Okay, and that turned out to be \u201cThe Savage Seven\u201d. By the time I made my Hippie film \u201cPsych-Out\u201d it had turned into a cold winter at Haight-Ashbury. The drug culture was starting to wear down the spirit of the kids who had escaped their homes to find personal freedom. I had to show both sides of it now because it was no longer that glorious idealistic paradise that I started out naively to illuminate for the world.\nThere is this sense in a lot of your films of really living in the moment, like time has stopped and the threat of everything collapsing lies all around the characters. Alliances are tentative, relationships are fragile, endings often apocalyptic. Where does this come from?\nIn your question, you composed a very poetic, insightful and accurate description of \u201cYOUTH\u201d. I was doing films for a youth market, where the heroes are teenagers. I believe that what you wrote is their view of the world.\nThe Stunt Man isn\u2019t the beginning of your love affair with stunt work: the AIP films, Freebie and the Bean and the Stuntman all feature a lot of destruction, chases, explosions, fight scenes. Where did this interest come from, and how were you able to pull it off working with (sometimes) such low budgets?\nAs a kid my favorite literature was Proust and Bat Man Comics. I believe the two are not mutually exclusive. I grew up loving action, watching it, daydreaming it, just like everybody else. It is obviously very much part of my culture, and a most satisfying part. When I make up stories to tell, I need to include that violent part of human behavior that seems essential to the audience. I learned to do it cheaply and well by doing it as I would a love scene or an argument \u2014 with detail and commitment to motivation, action and reaction. On my fifth film, someone brought in one of the top movie stunt men in the world to help. His name is Chuck Bail. He became my mentor and opened up a world I didn\u2019t know existed \u2014 methods, equipment, specialists, moves. All our stunts were without CGI. If a car crashed or a man went off a building, then that\u2019s what happened. It wasn\u2019t drawn, photographed in animation, then altered & re-photographed, instead we really did it, and the miracle was keeping everybody alive. Often there was an additional miracle. A reality that stunned the audience into the belief that the action was really happening to our hero\nA lot of your stunt men would be people you would continue to work with in many different capacities \u2013as stuntmen, actors, assistant directors etc. I\u2018m thinking of Chuck Bail and Gary Kent specifically. Can you talk about your working relationship with them? Why wasn\u2019t Gary Kent involved with the Stuntman?\nChuck Bail handled the hiring of all stunt personnel.. Gary Kent was probably unavailable at the time. He and Chuck and I are all still good friends. Chuck then became my second unit director for several pictures and went on to become a major Director in his own right,\nFreebie and the Bean is one of the funniest, most jaw-droppingly action-packed films ever made. I\u2019m not a comedy person at all, but I LOVE this film. I laugh out loud watching it, and that never happens. But in the Sinister Saga of the making of The Stuntman, you refer to it as kind of a job for hire that you did for the money. Do you really think of it that way? Because your style is all over it . I also didn\u2019t realize until re-watching Freebie that it was based on a story and exec produced by Floyd Mutrux, whose film Dusty and Sweets McGee I love as well. What was the working relationship like with Mutrux?\nFloyd Mutrix and I got along famously, but we did not have much, if any, contact with each other on Freebie and the Bean. He had submitted a screenplay to Warner Brothers which they offered to me. It wasn\u2019t really a screenplay. It was a treatment, an idea for a movie that dealt with two cops, one moral and one not, who rode around together in a police car and quarreled with each other like an old married couple. It was a good idea. It was a new one, never done before, regardless of how many times you have seen it since, through the franchises it has spawned. It started the genre of \u2018The Buddy Cop Picture\u2019. I turned it down at first, but John Calley, the smartest executive I have ever met, talked me into it: \u201cDo it and write it the way you want, turn it into a Richard Rush picture. We really want this movie, he said.\u201d I wrote a long treatment, flushing out the violent but funny characters, creating the ironic love story for Bean and the esoteric one for Freebie. Allan Arkin had turned down the project, but the studio gave him my treatment, and he approved. Then I brought my collaborator, Bobby Kaufman, in to write the screenplay with me, which was approved and we made it. Meanwhile, my earlier financiers were doing another project with Floyd Mutrux, entitled, \u201cPINBALL\u201d, and they brought me in with his permission to unofficially supervise it..Floyd and I had a lot of interesting, successful interaction on that. And, Freebie and the Bean turned out to be Warner Bros. top Grossing film of that year.\nFreebie came out the same year as Jack Starrett`s The Gravy Train (aka The Dion Brothers) and I often think of them as films that really complement eachother. Did you and Jack Starrett talk about production on your respective films while you were making them?\nJack Starrett and I never got a chance to talk about films when we were making them, except when we were working together on Hell\u2019s Angeles on Wheels. I think he was fascinated by the fact that I was departing from the screenplay, then working my way back to it pages later. It was the first time I started seriously improvising on film \u2013 and I never stopped. We discussed that at the time.\nDid you have anything to do with the Freebie and the Bean TV series?\nNothing! They had asked me to do one, I said, \u2018No, I already did that movie\u201d. When the pilot for Starsky and Hutch was finished, they asked me to look at it, to see if Warner\u2019s could sue for plagiarism. I said, \u201cNo, I don\u2019t think they got it\u201d.\nYou\u2019ve been producer on most of your films with the exception of the AIP ones. What kind of freedom or control does this give you?\nI had never had a really capable producer dedicated to the film more than the bottom line. I usually had to teach them technically how to do the job, and fight them on all the creative details. So, it was a big relief and burden lifted when I started producing. Of course I was still subject to the commands of the studio holding the purse strings, and was often considered a pain in the ass, particularly during editorial.\nPeter O\u2019Toole as Eli Cross in The Stuntman\nI was fascinated with the idea of doing a picture that dealt with the theme of \u201cillusion and reality\u201d as a big action adventure movie, where the hero/fugitive confused by his unfamiliarity with the nature of a movie company starts to believe the director is going to kill him in order to capture his death on film \u2013 and thereby giving me the chance to examine the universal paranoia that drives man to fight windmills as well as wars. But I wished the audience to experience that in a visceral sense, by leading them to believe something and then pulling the rug out from beneath their feet to discover a different truth\u2026again and again. That was the structure of the film. That was not at all the book. Also I believe Broduer, the author, committed the original sin by taking the easy way out. If you make the principal characters crazy, you don\u2019t have to rationally justify their motivation, because they are not rational. His director is nuts. Mine is just very bright, which generates vast problems, that when solved, makes a splendid movie.\nYou\u2019ve said that Eli Cross was a name you\u2019d used when making exploitation pictures, but I\u2019ve never seen you credited as such \u2013 which films were those?\nI made a film titled \u201cA Man Called Dagger, for a new producer and while deciding whether to take the assignment or not, I said I\u2019ll do it if you let me use my pseudonym on the film, which is Eli Cross. He said, \u201cI\u2019ll let you do that if you agree not to decide which name to use until after you see the finished picture\u201d, And, that\u2019s what was in the contract. At the after-party for the movie, he took me aside handed me a box, \u201cthis is my thank you gift for the movie\u201d. In it were to beautiful gold rings one was engraved, \u201cRR\u201d. The other was engraved \u201cEC\u201d. \u201cChoose one\u201d, he said. I liked the film well enough to pick \u201cRR\u201d. I thought it was very clever of him.\nDo you own the rights on The Stuntman independently, or did Severin have to work with Fox to license DVD/Blu Ray rights for the film?\nI do not own the rights. The previous home video rights owner was Lontano Investments, a Spanish production company that had purchased the rights from Mel Simon Productions, the original financiers and producers. They had sold Theatrical to Twentieth and home video to Lontano, who in turn leased them to me. I made the deal with Anchor Bay for the original Video in 2000. The total domestic rights were recently sold to Mark Balsam of Castle Hill Distribution. He is a good guy and I am thrilled. Mark leased the Home video rights to Severin, hence the current Blue Ray. What thrills me most about the new High Definition, and Blu Ray discs is the color transfer that took me more than a month on the most sophisticated machines to accomplish. It turned out to be, what I think is, the best print there ever was on The Stunt Man including the Original 35 MM Answer Print. Also I am happy they included my documentary, \u201cThe Sinister Saga of Making The Stunt Man\u201d.\nWhy are there such long periods between your films? I think the world needs more. When will we get another?\nI am working on a new film project now. It is called \u201cThe Fat Lady\u201d. It is a balls-out action adventure comedy, that plays against a compelling political thriller. It\u2019s based on a true story and a tragic one, but with such cosmic irony, it plays as comedy. It is actually the best story I have ever heard. I wrote the screenplay a few years ago, then, later abandoned it because I thought it had become politically irrelevant. But, I read it again a year ago, loved it so much, I bought it back, did a rewrite, and it is now a Parable For Our Time. THE FAT LADY is the star of our picture. She is a C-123 Military Transport Aircraft. The one that was shot down over Nicaragua starting The Iran Contra Scandal.\nRichard Rush\u2019s Indestructible Stunt Man",

        "raw_content": "When I work/worked on BI projects, one of main reason for initiating a project is to make a process better for the business and provide increased value to business in terms of revenue/profits. A good analysis and design of the business requirements would yield very good results. One of the methodologies i have been exposed to as part of Business Process Management is the AS IS TO BE analysis method. As part of this method the first step that is to be done is to understand the current process which is called as the AS IS State. Here one builds a flow diagram of the present system/process in place. Once this completed, the analysis of the current process takes place. In this step any possible flaws/deficiencies are identified, also any possible opportunities to optimise the process is also discussed/documented. The goal here is to identify steps that improve the overall process and provide Business value. Once this step is completed, then we move on to the TO BE stage where the proposed/improved process is documented. In this step the improvements/optimisations are captured. A walk through of the proposed process is performed and made sure that the design can be implemented. There are different tools to perform the AS IS-TO BE methodology. One of the tools available is from visual paradigms, here is the link http://www.visual-paradigm.com/. The specific product that helps with the AS-IS - TO-BE Process is Logizian: Here is the description of the tool from the web site at a high level. One of the reasons to write a blog post on this topic was to highlight the importance of analysis and design in a project where BI solutions are going to be implemented.\nhttp://www.visual-paradigm.com/product/lz/\nLogizian - BPMN 2.0 Business Workflow Design Software\nEasy-to-use and cross-platforms business process design tool that supports business process modeling with Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) 2.0, Data Flow Diagram (DFD), decision table and organization chart.

        "raw_content": "Back to Archived blog posts. The awesome power of God\nTwo natural disasters and a very personal tragedy in my life have reminded me of just how helpless we, as humans, are in the face of God's awesome power.\nFirst, 21 people are missing due to mud slides in California that have resulted in three confirmed deaths. The picture to the right demonstrates just how helpless man is in the face of something like this. Of course, the devastating tsunami in Asia has resulted in an insane amount of destruction.\nTo be certain, technology has made our lives not only easier, but more fun. Where the human race is in our ability to deal with nature (air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter, for example) is far beyond what it was only one hundred years ago. But in the face of powerful mudslides in California and the Asian tsunami, we realize just how powerless we are.\nMedical science has come far as well. A century ago, many people (like myself) diagnosed with cancer or other diseases would have had no hope of survival. But we are still mostly impotent. As I shared yesterday, my father-in-law, Rob, passed away on Sunday after a six-month battle with lung cancer. As much as medical science has advanced even in the last five years, all of the knowledge and technology of human beings could not save the man who has become my Dad.\nWe have a great deal of hubris as human beings. We worship ourselves, and we think that human intelligence, knowledge and \"wisdom\" can solve our problems. To be blunt, we humans are insignificant specks of dust on a rock orbiting a nuclear furnace.\nAnd yet, God created us in His image, to worship Him. We are, in all of God's creation, special. But that special status exists only in the context of us being spiritual creatures serving the Lord.",

        "raw_content": "Local elections more important than ever\nIn late June, the Supreme Court ruled that it is permissible under the Fifth Amendment for local government to use \"eminent domain\" to take private property (including your home) and give it to a real estate developer. By a 5 to 4 margin, the Court ruled that \"public use\" need not be a true public-works project like a street or a highway, but virtually anything that strikes their fancy, if it promotes \"economic development\".\nWhat this means for the people of Bloomington is that local elections are more important than ever. We need people in city and county government who value individual liberty and support limited government. The people of Bloomington already saw an attempt to undermine private property rights with the ST Semicon property. The John Fernandez administration claimed economic development as a reason for taking private property and giving it to a developer. That case takes on new importance with the Court's ruling.\nPeople in Bloomington and Monroe County should challenge city and county officials to pledge that they will not support any effort to take away someone's property and give it to a real estate developer. We should challenge our representatives to pledge that they will only use eminent domain for true public works projects. In the 2006 elections, voters should demand to know where the candidates stand on eminent domain issues.\nIn state legislative races, we should ask the candidates whether or not they support laws that would limit the eminent domain powers of local government. The state legislature already places limits on the authority of local government, and state government can serve as an important check on any potential abuse of power by local officials. At the federal level, Congress may be able to limit \"eminent domain\" through legislation. Since this involves the rights of all Americans, this is an important issue for Washington to tackle.\n2006 will be a pivotal election for private property rights, but an unjust decision by five people in black robes could ultimately result in a more informed and more involved group of voters on an issue that transcends ideological boundaries. That can only be a good thing.",

        "raw_content": "JACKSON, Miss. \u2014 A Democrat running for U.S. Senate in Mississippi says he would bring experience of \"diversity\" and \"inclusion\" to the job, and he thinks the Republican he's trying to unseat has a background lacking in those qualities.\nDemocrat Mike Espy spoke Saturday about how he and his twin sister were among the 17 black students who integrated the all-white Yazoo City High School in 1969, graduating in 1971.\nAn independent newspaper, the Jackson Free Press, reported Friday that Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, who is white, attended a white private school founded in 1970, the year many Mississippi public high schools integrated. She graduated from Lawrence County Academy in 1977.\nHyde-Smith campaign spokeswoman Melissa Scallan responded to the report about Hyde-Smith's high school attendance by saying: \"In their latest attempt to help Mike Espy, the gotcha liberal media has taken leave of their senses. They have stooped to a new low, attacking her entire family and trying to destroy her personally instead of focusing on the clear differences on the issues between Cindy Hyde-Smith and her far-left opponent.\"\nEspy said he was called \"the N-word\" many days during integration.\n\"I guess you could juxtapose my experience with her experience,\" Espy told The Associated Press between his campaign appearances Saturday in Jackson.\n\"If the story is correct, she consciously made a decision to separate, and my parents consciously made a decision to be inclusive,\" Espy said. \"So, that's a Mississippi I want to be a part of \u2014 one of diversity, one of inclusion, one of different experiences. ... I decided to use that very difficult time to learn from and try to reach out to people of all races. So, if you compare me and that experience to Cindy Hyde and her experience, I'd rather have my experience.\"\nThe hard-fought Senate race is expected to drive a higher-than-usual turnout for a runoff in Mississippi. President Donald Trump is set to travel to the state for two rallies with Hyde-Smith on Monday.\nMore than 43,000 absentee ballots have been requested for the runoff, and that number could increase as circuit clerks continue compiling information, the Mississippi secretary of state's office said Saturday.\nAbout 69,000 absentee ballots were requested before the Nov. 6 election. There's typically a large decrease in ballots cast between the first election and a runoff.\nSaturday was the deadline for in-person absentee voting. Several dozen waited in a line that stretched out of the Hinds County Courthouse in downtown Jackson, including retired home economics teacher Illinois Cox Littleton, 92, who said she voted for Espy because she considers him \"a highly intelligent man.\"\nHyde-Smith was appointed as a temporary successor to longtime Republican Sen. Thad Cochran, who retired in April. The winner of Tuesday's runoff gets the final two years of a term he started.\nShe is the first woman to represent Mississippi in Congress, and Espy is seeking to become the first African-American to represent the state in the U.S. Senate since Reconstruction. Mississippi last elected a Democrat to the Senate in 1982.\nMississippi has a history of racially motivated lynchings and violence against people who sought voting rights for black citizens, and Hyde-Smith has been sharply criticized after two videos surfaced this month. One showed her praising a supporter at a Nov. 2 campaign event by saying: \"If he invited me to a public hanging, I'd be on the front row.\" Another showed her Nov. 3 talking about \"liberal folks\" and making it \"just a little more difficult\" for them to vote.\nHer campaign said the remark about voting was a joke.\nHyde-Smith said the \"public hanging\" comment was \"an exaggerated expression of regard\" for a fellow cattle rancher. During a televised debate nine days after that video was published, said she apologized to \"anyone that was offended by my comments,\" but also said the remark was used as a \"weapon\" against her.\nThe school photos surfaced days after other photos circulated on social media of Hyde-Smith wearing a gray Confederate military-style hat in 2014 when she was state agriculture commissioner and visited Beauvoir, the beachside home in Biloxi, Mississippi, that was the last home for Confederate president Jefferson Davis. Hyde-Smith posted the photos of herself at Beauvoir in Facebook at the time with the caption: \"Mississippi history at its best!\"\nScallan said the Hyde-Smith campaign had no comment about the Beauvoir photos.",

        "raw_content": "In attempting to discover and speak with Cuban artists, I began visiting both public art galleries in Havana.\nThe one located near our hotel was presided over by Jose Antonio Salas Calderon. Nicole Batsere, my interpreter and I were speaking with him about the city\u2019s artists and their work when he told us of his pet project \u2013 sponsoring a group of Cuban Kung-fu dancers.\nMany people seem to be multi-talented here. They have their jobs and then they have their passionate interests. Jose is the artistic director of El Grupo Experimental de Danza del Leon China. With the coming of carnival, his group of over a hundred dancers are practicing every day in preparation. He invited us to attend the practice session that session.\nAll over Havana there are people working on projects for the festivities that begin July 25, a time of year traditionally celebrating the end of the harvest season. After the revolution, the celebration was given additional significance. It was on July 26, 1953, that Fidel Castro and about 170 followers made the first strike against the Batista regime, attacking the Moncada barracks at Santiago de Cuba. Fidel was subsequently arrested and sentenced to 15 years in jail, but the attack focused national attention on the early stages of the struggle.\nWhile the Cuban government attempts to focus attention on political issues, the people enjoy a citywide party that lasts for more than 10 consecutive days. There are parades and dancing in the streets with bands playing all over the city\u2019s wide avenues. For weeks in advance of the activities, people spend their free time building floats and decorations, or practicing for some kind of participation. El Grupo will perform in the street parades next week in an art form that is traditionally Chinese.\nThere are a surprising amount of Chinese living in Havana. They first came here as early as 1806, lured by hopes of improved living conditions. The Chinese signed agreements for their transportation to the new world in exchange for an eight-year contract for labor. They were shipped through Manilla to Panama and then over land by rail eventually completing the travel by ship to Cuba. During the period of their bondage, they were treated much worse than African slaves because after the eight years expired, they had no official value. A slaveowner on the other hand, had a stake in the health of slaves that he owned for life.\nThe indentured Chinese worked side by side with the African slaves mostly in agrarian situations. Some eventually intermarried with blacks as well as Spanish after the emancipation in 1877. Chinese contracting had also come to a close, with that year\u2019s census recording 40,261 Chinese living in Cuba. Havana already had its first Chinese restaurant in 1858.\nAfter the elimination of slavery, racism still persisted in Cuba up until the revolution. At that time, many of the Chinese fought alongside the Castro supporters. Since then, they have been recognized as fully franchised Cuban citizens. There has been a concerted effort to reconstruct the folkloric traditions of the Chinese-Cuban people with activities like the one we witnessed as the older generation of Chinese attempt to pass on their traditional arts to the following generations.\nHistory is written in the many varieties of facial features blended here as well as in the merging of cultures. There really is no typical Cuban face. With skin tones blending from black to suntanned white, with Oriental features blended in as well, one forgets about delineating along the lines of color or race. The melting pot is not simply a cliche here.\nA boy about eleven years of age tried to tell me tonight how happy he was to be living here in Cuba because there was no \u201ccucuclan.\u201d I had no idea what he was talking about and asked Nicole to intervene with her superior command of the language. He rubbed the skin on his forearm affectionately, and said that in the U.S. there is the Ku Klux Klan, and he would suffer for having that dark skin.\nThere are more than 2 million people living in this city. I have only talked to about a hundred, looking for someone who will tell me that they are miserable or that they detest their government. Instead I am typically told in so many words that, \u201cWe Cubans are not rich, but at least now we all have the basics necessary for life.\u201d Before the revolution, that wasn\u2019t so.\nCubans may be cut off from the West, but in no way are they culturally isolated. They may never learn that Miami Vice is battling Dallas for the top ratings on American TV, but they do know what is going on in the streets of those cities. While a majority of Cuban-American refugees have become stable and productive citizens of the USA, it seems the people within Cuba believe that their government has succeeded in exporting a lot of their problems to America.\nIt is really amazing for me to walk all over \u201cHabana Vieja,\u201d one of the older and poorer sections of the city, carrying a small fortune in camera equipment on my shoulder in a black bag. In New York city, in a similarly poor neighborhood, I might last about half an hour with reasonable luck. Here, people are continually stopping me to talk, inviting me into their homes. \u201cAh, you are a stranger. You must be East German? Russian? Polish? Ah, Yugoslav, Hungarian? Norwegian? They never guess \u201cNorte Americano.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Double Scandal of Dropouts\nThe Lysenko School of Education & Propaganda \u2192\nChurch of Knowledge vs Church of Indoctrination\nPosted on December 12, 2013 by Bruce Price\nby Bruce Price 12/12/13\nMany people, confronting the mediocrity and malaise of the public schools, are dumbfounded. Why have things gotten so bad? As long ago as 1983, a government report said that our schools seem to have been designed by a hostile foreign power. More recently, in 2007, Bill Gates led a commission which concluded that the public schools are a threat to our country\u2019s future.\nHow do we explain all this? Here is the easiest way.\nFor thousands of years people started schools for only one reason. They knew a lot of information; and they believed this information was vital to the young people. The purpose of education, obviously, was to transmit knowledge to the next generation. All educators, since the beginning of history, were worshippers in the Church of Knowledge.\nIt\u2019s not like that anymore. Virtually everyone in the top levels of education has long ago left that church. They may not comprehend its beliefs at all. They have joined a different church with a different creed.[pullquote]Since the time of John Dewey, top educators became members of the Church of Indoctrination. Everything they do during the school day is focused on turning out a child socialized in a certain way, not an educated child.[/pullquote]\nSince the time of John Dewey, top educators became members of the Church of Indoctrination. Everything they do during the school day is focused on turning out a child socialized in a certain way, not an educated child. These educators see the school as a socialist training ground, a place where high-minded social engineers (them) can create a wonderful new kind of humans who will build a brave new world. (Note that the social engineers themselves will rule this world\u2013certainly a conflict of interest.)\nSo the crux of our problem is simple. These top educators are not in the education business anymore, not as most of us understand that phrase. We foolishly suppose that they are trying to do something they are not trying to do. They will provide head fakes and sophistries to keep us fooled. But they know what their priorities are: collectivist indoctrination. Knowledge, if it\u2019s considered at all, is viewed as a nuisance, like a kid having to brush his teeth.\nMaybe it\u2019s worth noting that schools a hundred years ago taught far more and were very strict about it. Let\u2019s grant that there may have been some excesses to react against. Possibly John Dewey and his immediate successors never imagined how far things would decline under the banner of their wisdom. But once the momentum built up, who could slow it down?\nPerhaps the thing that no one anticipated is that knowledge would so often appear to be directly in the way of the social schemes. So, diminishing knowledge a little did not turn out to be workable. Getting rid of as much knowledge as possible often seemed more helpful to the cause. Consider a few examples:\nMath and science generally are precise and insist on objective truth. But the socialist educators were pushing theories that can\u2019t necessarily be proven. Why encourage children to become able to discuss these things? Indeed, why teach children to think for themselves at all?\nFurthermore, math and science tend to be easier for boys. Well, in this collectivist world, you don\u2019t want one group of kids moving ahead of another group of kids. So there\u2019s a very good reason for undercutting math and science, which the educators tried to do in Reform Math (most memorably in the curriculum called Mathland).\nConsider foreign languages. Words must be spelled a certain way and pronounced a certain way\u2013these are approaches that modern schools downplayed in the teaching of English. Indeed many children were never taught to read and pronounce English words phonetically. Imagine the conflicts that would\u2019ve arisen if French et al were taught in the early years. So what happened? Almost across the board, public schools got rid of foreign languages in the first six grades, even though all experts said this was the best time to teach a foreign language!\nWhat about History? Do we want to make heroes of patriotic Americans? Rich capitalists? Tycoons, inventors and famous generals? No, we do not. We want the children to think of everybody as more or less the same. Nobody is supposed to try to move ahead of other people. This creates social friction. Socialist thinkers don\u2019t want any of those things, so History is really a hindrance. Not to mention, most of the participants over the last several thousand years were males. Talking about famous males is another no-no. Not to mention a lot of the most interesting events occurred in wars. That\u2019s another no-no if you\u2019re trying to encourage pacifistic cooperation.[pullquote]They will provide head fakes and sophistries to keep us fooled. But they know what their priorities are: collectivist indoctrination. Knowledge, if it\u2019s considered at all, is viewed as a nuisance, like a kid having to brush his teeth.[/pullquote]\nWhat about Geography? Why can\u2019t we teach that? Well, if Americans can look at how other people live around the world, American kids might start feeling very proud about themselves and their country. Obviously we can\u2019t have that!\nAll our problems become really simple if you put yourself in the place of the bishops in the Church of Indoctrination. Imagine that your goal is social engineering. Then every policy these people preferred will seem completely logical to you. You would find yourself doing precisely the same thing. You would downplay and devalue everything that was traditionally done in the schools, i.e., teaching knowledge. Meanwhile, you would focus all your resources on molding and shaping little children to be whatever it is you think they should be. Form a vision in your mind of how you think children should be. Then imagine you set up a school to make exactly that happen, and only that. Further imagine that your idea of what children should be is at variance with what the society wants or cares about. Well, you will be in a long-running campaign, a war really, against the parents, the local customs and culture, against all the things done over the centuries by concerned parents and genuine schools. Thus the Education Wars.\nTo make this thought experiment complete, you have to suppose that you have become really nutty and even ruthless on the subject of social engineering. You\u2019ve gone so completely over to collectivist thinking that the very idea of grades strikes you as repulsive. The thought of some children being given Honors or one child being picked as valedictorian makes you want to vomit. Now you\u2019ll start to feel the need for ever more indoctrination.\nAs long as such extremists are in charge, we will have a dumbed-down curriculum and mediocre schools. They don\u2019t even seem to be very good as indoctrination centers. Look at all the crime, the bullying, the drugs, the dropping out, the giving up. So whatever kind of child our so-called educators are trying to create, they are not doing a very good job. Meanwhile, they\u2019re very much succeeding in destroying the concept of the educated citizen as we used to understand that phrase.\nSo I keep coming back to the same dire conclusion. We have to replace these so-called experts. Many people may remember William F. Buckley, Jr. and his famous comment that he would prefer to be ruled by 400 people out of the phone book than by the faculty at Harvard. That is such a brilliant insight. If our schools were run by any 400 people in the phone book (let\u2019s qualify that by saying they should\u2019ve gone to college), I would feel comfortable saying the schools would be much better. Presumably these people will be trying to make the schools work, as opposed to not work. These 400 would for the most part be lifelong members of the Church of Knowledge. Improvement would ensue automatically.\nBruce Deitrick Price explains education theories and methods on his site Improve-Education.org \u2022 (1153 views)\nJust One Fact Each Day\nThe Efficient Path to Education Reform\nPublic Schools Are Worse Than Most People Believe\nThe Lysenko School of Education & Propaganda\nDictators Don\u2019t Need Readers\nThe Progressive Myth of Creativity\nThis entry was posted in Education, Politics and tagged Education. Bookmark the permalink.\n3 Responses to Church of Knowledge vs Church of Indoctrination\nOne superb example of how fraudulent public education too often is comes from the fact that home-schoolers tend to do better than those miseducated by professionals.\nYes. And I think the preponderance of Bruce\u2019s articles shows the corruption of collectivism (and unionism as well, I would say). People are immersed in a totally different way of thinking. They are strangers in a strange land.\nWhat is obvious to you or me \u2014 what works and what doesn\u2019t work \u2014 is not obvious to the collectivist mindset. Or, as Bruce has pointed out, the entire point of education in many places is not to teach kids facts and skills but to \u201csocialize\u201d them\u2026.that is, to propagandize them into a collectivist mindset.\nI honestly don\u2019t know why parents are putting up with this. Is it because they have the same mindset, infected years before when it was their turn to be indoctrinated? Thomas Sowell does note that even for motivated parents, the teachers and school officials have well-practiced defenses to keep parents at bay. They have learned how to effectively lie and to intimidate them.\nI think the inability of parents to critique and face up to the failure of many schools is also because they are infected by the same conceits, favoring the mere trendy for what works in their own lives. And I\u2019m sure Glenn Fairman would agree that people have become superficial and narcissistic. Those are not the kind of character traits you need when facing down someone else\u2019s nonsense.\nBruce \u2014 I couldn\u2019t agree more. And now we have schools staffed and run by the second and third generations of this nonsense, and students and their parents (to say nothing of their parents\u2019 lawyers) who are also products of this system. Having been through many educational \u201creforms\u201d \u2014 some of which I instigated \u2014 I know that the weight of the bureaucracy reinforced by the threat of lawsuits has strangled any hope I can see for actual improvement.",

        "raw_content": "the SACCO Development Manager at PROFIRA\nFollowing our pioneering reports last week on the challenges facing the Microfinance sector in Uganda, including politicization of government contributions, week legal regime and weak supervision, there appears to be a ray of hope that the sector will experience some order in the near future.\nIn an Interview with The Sunrise\u2019s Henry Lutaaya, Colin Agabalinda, the SACCO Development Manager at the Project for Financial Inclusion in Rural Areas (PROFIRA), a US$30m loan project from the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), revealed the government\u2019s efforts to restore some order in the foundations of the microfinance industry. Below are excerpts.\nQn. Why was PROFIRA established and how different is it from previous government programmes targeting SACCOs?\nAns: The government has had a long history supporting financial inclusion in areas where commercial banks do not reach because they are mostly located in urban areas. If you may remember, we had the Poverty Alleviation Programme (PAP), then came the Micro-finance Outreach Programme, the Rural Financial Services Programme (RFSP), an IFAD US$29m loan programme, that was partly developed to support the rural finance support strategy, and now PROFIRA.\nThe only thing that has changed is the method. Initially, government had what you would call direct intervention. You remember the Entandikwa scheme where the government was the direct lender through the LC system. After realizing it wasn\u2019t working, the government shifted to a strictly private sector-led intervention when it put money in micro-finance institutions like FINCA, Pride Micro-finance among others. But there were outcries from people regarding high interest rates and hash methods of recovery etc.\nWhat we\u2019re seeing today is a new strategy of bringing the public and private together. Supporting SACCOS or Community Savings and Credit Institutions to be able to mobilize their own savings so they can access them as loans. You now have a mixture of public and private.\nQn. What are the key lessons to pick from that history?\nAns. One, Government\u2019s direct intervention is not the best. As I told you, during the Entandikwa scheme, so many people accessed credit but the repayment was poor as people claimed the money wasn\u2019t disbursed as it should have been. But the key problem was the way most people perceived it as Kasiimo (token of appreciation). The lesson is that government is not the best lender because the methods of use will be challenged, enforcement of recovery will be a challenge.\nAlso, when the government announced the micro-finance outreach strategy, it was primarily focused on SACCOs, and after developing the RFSP that was redesigned to support only SACCOs, we learned that while SACCOs did well in the South and the Central regions, in other parts especially in the East and the North, majority of the SACCOs were failing. And yet we saw other financial services such as Village Savings Groups doing well.\nThe lesson was that you cannot have a one size fits all. If your purpose is financial inclusion, you can use several vehicles. There has to be a multi-pronged approach to financial inclusion which is why PROFIRA does not support SACCOS alone, it supports VSLAs as well.\nQn. How many institutions have you supported and what is your target?\nAns: PROFIRA targets to strengthen 500 SACCOs by 2022, and a minimum of 18,000 Savings and Credit Groups. Since PROFIRA started in 2015, we have identified 453 SACCOs and in our first three years of contracting, we expect that at least 7500 VSLAs will be established.\nThe project is not establishing new SACCOs but strengthening existing ones. We also aim to establish credit and savings groups where non-existed as well as work with existing groups to strengthen them.\nBy establishing groups, we don\u2019t go around villages and telling people to form groups.\nWe know that people already have different groups for diverse purposes. Some of them are burial groups like Munno mu Kabi (self-help group) others are pyramid schemes or circles where people collect money on a regular basis and give it to one person in an unsustainable manner. Many people have baptized these groups as SACCOs, which is not the case.\nA SACCO must be registered with the Registrar of Cooperatives and operated along the principles of a Cooperative; being member-owned and governed for the benefit of the members themselves.\nQn. What problems have you identified with SACCOs?\nAns: SACCOs have problems in three main areas. Governance, Management and as well as in the area of membership \u2013 members who are financially illiterate.\nWhen you enter into a struggling SACCO and ask them what is your problem, they will tell you we do not have money. By that they mean that when members want to take their money, it is not there or it\u2019s all in loans. So if a politician walked into that SACCO, he would think the best thing to do is to make a big cash donation of say Ushs500m. This has not shown to solve the problem of the SACCO. The question is why does the SACCO find itself in a situation with no money yet it is called a Savings and Credit, meaning people are not saving enough or if they are saving enough, the managers are not managing it is a prudent way to be able to recover it.\nQn. How do you help such SACCOs?\nSo at PROFIRA we have focused our intervention in capacity building. Providing training in the areas of; Governance, Financial literacy, Training in entrepreneurship and business skills development, Financial management, Strategic planning, Savings and other product development as well as train management in Credit and default management. We also provide support through computerization.\nQn? Why do members fail to save? Is it our culture?\nAns. I don\u2019t believe it is our culture not to save. Actually poor people in rural areas save. The difference is that they tend to put their savings in physical assets like animals, land. You can\u2019t blame them entirely because what is the incentive to save in a bank?\nSecondly, if they\u2019ve heard stories where a certain manager has run away with people\u2019s money, or if there are members of a SACCO whose board is comprised of people who are not credible. So people do not save because they don\u2019t have the trust in the leadership and management of the institutions.\nThat is where PROFIRA comes in: To make them attractive, credible and reasonable so that when someone comes, is able to find them more attractive than buying a cow or a goat.\nSecondly, if the institutions are not credibly managed, one dissatisfied member can call off so many others, but if we work with SACCOs, we help them with good financial management.\nIn northern Uganda where Community Savings Groups alternatively called Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) thrive, people are able to save millions of money because they trust each other and they are seeing the benefits of their money.\nQn. How do you support VSLAs?\nIn the case of a VSLA, what we do is to introduce to them a tried and tested methodology. This involves a complete course on how to do savings, credit and welfare and not to mix them.\nThe methodology gives proper directions on how a group should be formed, how meetings should be held, how the executive should relate with management, how a proper business meeting should be conducted from start to finish, how the records should be kept, what is the ratio of savings to loans, how an appraisal should be conducted.\nIn addition to the course, we provide groups with kits including stamps, cash books, then we say we have established a group.\nQn. How do you distinguish between a SACCO and a VSLA?\nA VSLA is an informal group made of about 25 \u2013 30 people. Members select among themselves the chairman, secretary and treasurer. They agree on which day of the week they are supposed to meet and the amount each is supposed to save. The maximum one can save is determined by the minimum they\u2019ve agreed to save because they save in multiples up to an agreed limit.\nIf everyone has saved, the chairman announces how much they\u2019ve each saved and how much collectively. He then asks who wants to borrow, for how long and for what purpose.\nAn appraisal is done and a decision is taken there and then. If there is anyone in the group who thinks the applicant has intension of failure to pay, he/she will rise up and say I know so and so has been trying to shift, we shouldn\u2019t give him/her our money. They are free to say so. At the next meeting, they meet and repeat the cycle. The process has no costs and is transparent. At the end of the year, they count the money they\u2019ve saved, including interest and share out everything.\nOn the contrary, a SACCO is a formal institution. It has a board of directors who earn allowances, its has staff, offices, When someone comes and wants to save with a SACCO, his money may be making profit, but because of the inefficiencies that may exist, the board and management may be eating away the profits through fat salaries and allowances. So at the end of the year they report that we got savings but made a loss.\nIf the SACCO has not embraced the right principles of growing a cooperative and as a business enterprise, they may find themselves in a situation where they misuse members\u2019 money and at the end of the year, they are reporting nothing in terms of dividends to members.\nBut for the groups, once someone has defaulted, they will know it the next week and when the meeting ends, they will stop at that person\u2019s doorstep. Community pressure will compel that person to pay.\nAs PROFIRA, what we do is to help SACCOS have an effective Supervisory Committee (SUPCO) \u2013 that helps the AGM to perform regular spot checks throughout the year. It reports to the AGM.\nRelated Topics:Microfinance, PROFIRA, SACCOs\nUganda\u2019s failure to enact a biosafety law a setback for other COMESA countries\nUganda\u2019s exports face ban due to armyworm \u2013 Agric.

        "title": "Louis Vuitton - The Bag King Icon - European Car Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Louis Vuitton - Icon\nHome | Cars | New Car Reviews | Louis Vuitton - Icon\nPhoto 1/1 | Louis Vuitton - Icon\nThere are a few icons called Louis. Like Louis XIV, the Sun King, and Louis Armstrong, the jazz king. But the one with a vehicular slant is Louis Vuitton, the bag king, maker of expensive luggage that has graced the trunk of a many an upmarket European car. Although, being the most forged fashion brand in history, it might not be easy to tell which cars had the kosher stuff. Founded in 1854, the Louis Vuitton company has been around since before the horseless carriage. A 14-year-old Louis (born in 1821) left his hometown of Anchay, in France, for the nation's capital. He made this journey of about 250 miles on foot, picking up odd jobs on the way to pay for food and lodging. It took a year, but once he reached sophisticated, fashion-conscious Paris, Vuitton became an apprentice malletier with the luggage maker Monsieur Marechal. This was a bit like going to Silicon Valley in the 1970s with a degree in computer science.\nVuitton caught the crest of a wave. Travel was becoming more attractive to the wealthy. Steam engines and ocean liners led to a demand for trunks, somewhere to stow fineries and unguents. Vuitton not only became an artisan, he became an innovator. Other trunks had curved tops so water would run off. He made a flat-topped trunk that could be stacked, adding a touch of luxury by covering it in canvas.\nVuitton had found his mtier, established a reputation and set up his own company. In 1875 came the Wardrobe Trunk, an ingenious creation that incorporated hanging space and several drawers. A year later, he constructed the Trunk Bed for the French explorer De Brazza to take into the Congo. Vuitton's son, George, took the company to even greater heights by developing the pick-proof five-tumbler lock and the now-iconic Monogram Design canvas (arguably establishing the first-ever designer label). He wrote a book (Le Voyage) on the evolution of travel and even took his new luggage pieces to the deserts of North Africa to 'road-test' them.\nNow we get around to the road. High society's love of travel quickly expanded to include the automobile. By equipping cars with bespoke luggage for the 1907 Peking to Paris rally and the 1908 New York to Paris rally, the company positioned itself as an essential accessory to the romance of the road-a kind of emotional baggage, if you will.\nWhen grandson Gaston Louis came on board, he created the Keepall bag in 1924, a soft leather item (still made with quality materials and attention to detail-and still made today) that was perfect for putting into a car. He also developed a treatment for leather that made it waterproof.\nThis automotive connection is something LVMH (Louis Vuitton Mot Hennessy, as the company is known today) still perpetuates with the Louis Vuitton Classic, a regular car-fest that either has some themed show (such as beautiful American cars) or involves a jaunt through some exotic locale or other; the China Run in 1998 went from Dalian to Beijing, about 300 miles. The posters for these events are usually pretty cool too.\nBecause almost 99 percent of items bearing the LV logo are counterfeit, usually from a Far Eastern sweatshop, it's difficult to fully appreciate the real thing. Proper Louis Vuitton luggage and accessories have become a fashion cult because they are stylish and elegant (as epitomized by the ever-gamine Audrey Hepburn when she sported an LV bag in the 1963 movie Charade, which also starred the ever-suave Cary Grant). Yet they're also well made (predominantly by hand) and durable. Manufacturing methods have changed little since the 19th century. Trunks take up to 60 hours to make; their frames are constructed from 30-year-old poplar that has dried for at least four years. A suitcase takes 15 hours to produce.\nLVMH was in the running to buy Aston Martin before Prodrive stumped up $925 million. Now that would have been interesting. Something with an LV logo would no doubt have made it into a Bond film.",

Born on July 24, 1944; mother, Benita Hume; survived him.\nRonald Colman (February 9, 1891 \u2013 May 19, 1958) was an Oscar-winning English actor. Born in Richmond, Surrey, England, the son of Charles Colman and his wife Marjory Read Fraser, he was educated in Littlehampton, where he discovered his enjoyment in acting. He intended to attend Cambridge University to study engineering, but his father's death put an end to that. A became a well-known amateur actor, and was a member of the West Middlesex Dramatic Society in 1908-9. He made his first appearance on the professional stage in 1914. Upon the outbreak of The Great War in August 1914 he joined the Territorial Army and served in the London Scottish Regiment with fellow actors Claude Rains, Herbert Marshall and Basil Rathbone. He was seriously wounded at the first battle of Messines. 31st October 1914, and invalided from the Service in 1916. He had sufficiently recovered to appear at the London Coliseum on June 19, 1916, as Rahmat Sheikh in The Maharani of Arakan, with Lena Ashwell; at the Playhouse in September that year as Stephen Weatherbee in Charles Goddard & Paul Dickey's play The Misleading Lady; at the Court Theatre in March 1917 he played Webber in Partnership and at that theatre the following year appeared in Eugene Brieux's play, adapted from the French, Damaged Goods; at the Ambassador Theatre in February 1918 he played George Lubin in The Little Brother, and during 1918 toured as David Goldsmith in The Bubble. In 1920 he Colman went to America and toured with Robert Warwick in The Dauntless Three, and subsequently toured with Fay Bainter in East is West; at the Booth Theatre, New York, in January 1921 he played the Temple Priest in William Archer's play The Green Goddess, with George Arliss; at the 39th Street Theatre in August 1921 he appeared as Charles in The Nightcap; and in September 1922 he made a great success as Alain Sergyll at the Empire Theatre, New York in the hit play La Tendresse. Ronald Colman had first appeared in films in England in 1917 and 1919 under Cecil Hepworth, and subsequently with the old Broadwest Film Company in The Snow of the Desert. While appearing on stage in New York in La Tendress, Director Henry King saw him, and engaged him as the leading man in the 1923 film, The White Sister, opposite Lillian Gish, and was an immediate success. Thereafter Colman virtually abandoned the stage for film. He became a very popular silent film star in both romantic and adventure films, and successfully made the transition to \"talkies\" because of his elegant and sonorous speaking voice. His first major talkie success was in 1930, when he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for two roles \u2014 Condemned and Bulldog Drummond. He thereafter appeared in a number of notable films including Raffles, The Masquerader, Clive of India, A Tale of Two Cities in 1935, Under Two Flags,The Prisoner of Zenda and Lost Horizon in 1937, If I Were King in 1938, and The Talk of the Town in 1941. He won the Best Actor Oscar in 1948 for A Double Life. Beginning in 1945, Colman made many guest appearances on The Jack Benny Program on radio, alongside his second wife, Benita Hume (1906-1967). Their comedy work as Benny's next-door neighbors led to their own radio comedy The Halls of Ivy from 1950 to 1952, and then on television from 1954 to 1955. Ronald Colman died on 19 May 1958, aged 67, from a lung infection in Santa Barbara, California and was interred in the Santa Barbara Cemetery. He had a daughter, Juliet, by his second wife. He has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, one for motion pictures at 6801 Hollywood Blvd. and one for television at 1625 Vine Street. Hollywood actor Christopher Walken, whose original first name was Ronald, was named after Ronald Colman.\nAGRIPPA ( 2008-10-03 )\nColman felt his performance in \"Beau Geste\" (1927) was his best performance.",

Turkmenistan National Glass Complex has been opened with a great ceremony on February 14, 2018, after it was constructed by Tepe \u0130n\u015faat starting from 2016 together with all engineering services in the form of EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction).\nTurkmenistan President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, Deputy Presidents of Turkmenistan, Foreign Representatives, Ambassador of Turkey in Turkmenistan Mustafa Kapucu, foreign businessmen, mainly Turkish, local and foreign press and many invitees, Rector of Bilkent University and Chairman of Bilkent Holding Abdullah Atalar, TOBB Chairman R\u0131fat Hisarc\u0131kl\u0131o\u011flu, Chairman of Tepe \u0130n\u015faat Bahad\u0131r G\u00fcngenci and General Manager of Tepe \u0130n\u015faat Atila Kemal O\u011fuz attended the opening ceremony.\nTurkmenistan President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow made the opening speech and stated that they will make Turkmenistan a rich country in terms of industry and industrial facilities within the scope of the 2030 development program. He also added that the facility is the most modern production facility in Central Asia, underlining the importance of Turkmenistan National Glass Complex, which was built in G\u00f6kdepe district of Turkmenistan's Ahal province. The Turkmen Leader said that 833 people will be employed in this factory and 15 types of bottles will be produced at a level that can be used in many areas. The Turkmen Leader also noted that Turkmenistan is a rich country in terms of various mineral resources, adding that 70 percent of the raw material used in the factory is domestic and 2 new facilities will be built to procure the remaining 30 percent internally in Turkmenistan.\nTepe \u0130n\u015faat offers solutions for all needs of its clients from a single source in Turn-key Industrial Facilities, and trusts and invests in human resources in Turkey.\nExpressing his thoughts during the ceremony, General Manager of Tepe \u0130n\u015faat Atila Kemal O\u011fuz said, \"Between 2012-2015, we completed the construction of flour and pasta factories as well as cereals storage and processing facilities with a capacity of 360 tons in 13 locations in Turkmenistan.\nTurkmenistan National Glass Complex was our third EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) project in Turkmenistan and started production in December, 2017. Now we are holding the official opening ceremony in February 14. We are proud that we have realized one of the most important projects of Turkmenistan's 2030 development program. Constructed with an indoor space of 87,000 square meters on an area of 24 hectares, Turkmenistan National Glass Complex consists of four separate facilities, including Mineral Enrichment, Flat Glass Factory, Bottle Factory and Glass Processing Facilities.\nThe flat glass line, which has a production capacity of 250 tons per day, can produce flat glass, coated glass, insulated glass, tempered glass, tinted glass and laminated safety glass. Another part of the plant, the bottle factory, can reach 65 tons of production. In this facility, 53 million glass bottles and jars and 40 million drug bottles will be produced annually. The mineral enrichment section has an annual sand enrichment capacity of 140 thousand tons. In addition to the production facility, 2-storey lodging houses for 48 families and 2 worker's houses with a capacity of 400 people were built nearby the factory site. The facility, which was constructed by Tepe \u0130n\u015faat on turn-key basis, draws attention as the most modern glass processing facility of Central Asia, with its production technologies and structural features.\n\"Tepe \u0130n\u015faat has its mark on many symbol buildings\"\nSince our establishment in 1969, we have become one of Turkey's largest construction companies with constructions on approximate total area of 13 million square meters until today. During this period of about 50 years, we have served as the investor and developer of leading projects in the real estate industry, such as Beykoz Mansions, Bilkent Center, Narcity, Narlife, Narkule, Tepe Natilius Shopping Center, Bilkent Garden and Tepe Prime. We are also the developer and contractor of Park Mosaic, Tepe Aura and Tepe Steps residential projects which are still under construction.\nWith 3 new urban transformation projects we are developing, we will continue to provide symbol structures in \u0130stanbul and Ankara. On the other hand, we constructed many important symbol buildings and projects as part of our contracting activities in Turkey, such as And Plaza, And Pastel, Taurus Shopping Mall, Kanyon, \u0130\u015f Bank Headquarters Building, and proved our experience in overseas contracting works as well. Until today, we have performed contracting works of 3.3 million square meters in total in 17 different countries, including Afghanistan, Albania, Azerbaijan, Chechnya, United Arab Emirates, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Georgia, Croatia, Iraq, Iran, Kazakhstan, TRNC, Egypt, Russia, Tunisia, Turkmenistan and Ukraine.\nStarted to operate in the US last year, Tepe USA LLC is now getting ready for contracting and investment projects in this big market.

        "raw_content": "In today\u2019s modern world and Church,\nTo whom might Our Lord say,\n\u201cGet behind Me, Satan.\nYou are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do!\u201d\nIn response to a mystical invitation from God the Father through Gianna Sullivan in 2005, the Foundation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary was formed as a 501\u00a93 non-profit religious organization for the purpose of preserving and propagating the message of Our Lady of Emmitsburg from the Center of Her Immaculate Heart in Emmitsburg, MD. Drawing its Board of Directors from 5 states, and at cumulative peak distribution of over 9 1/2 million hits from over 180 nations and all 50 states, the Foundation strives to provide a weekly devotional newsletter based on solid Roman Catholic orthodoxy and predominantly private revelation from Church-approved and yet-to-be vindicated sources from around the world. The current scandals within the Church and the prophesied apostasy would force almost any informed Catholic to be concerned about some very serious matters of faith and morals as well as discernment and legitimate authority in the hierarchical institutional Catholic Church.\n\u201cI LOVE YOU, AND I AM HERE TO HELP YOU,\nNOT TO BE SHUNNED BY YOU!\n(Our Lady of Emmitsburg, January 31, 2008)\nThe Archdiocese of Baltimore & Our Lady of Emmitsburg\nWithin one month of the first public apparition and message from Our Lady in Emmitsburg at St. Joseph\u2019s Catholic Rectory on December 8, 1993, She gave to our nation and the Church a message about purity:\n\u201cMy dear children, I am your Mother of the Immaculate Conception.\n\u2026My little ones, you are all called to a life of purity,\na life free of sin, a life filled with joy, happiness and peace.\nSatan would like you to dwell on your sins.\nHe would like you to live in shame and guilt\nand to be unforgiving to yourselves and others.\nIn prayer you will realize that Jesus loves you\nand is calling you not to sin, shame or guilt,\nbut to freedom, joy, purity and forgiveness.\n\u2026Seek to be pure, my little ones.\n\u2026Jesus will grace you with purity if you desire this virtue.\n\u2026A call to purity!\u201d\nWith the consent of the Archdiocese, approved spiritual direction, and the pastoral supervision of the Vincentian priests at the local parish, the weekly Prayer Group, Mass and apparition with Our Lady\u2019s message continued through September 7, 2000. On September 8, the Feast of the Nativity of the BVM, Gianna and Michael Sullivan were called to the Archdiocesan offices in Baltimore and presented without any explanation the infamous unsigned letter from officials there:\nRead the Unsigned Letter\u2026.\nOne month after their receipt of the Unsigned Letter, God performed His miracle of affirmation when they were gifted with an unplanned, unscheduled visit with Pope John Paul II on October 13, 2000, in the Vatican, allowing them to present the Holy Father with a picture of Our Lady of Emmitsburg and to receive his blessing on the Mission of Mercy healthcare ministry to the poor.\nJPII picture\nOver the next year there was tremendous pressure placed on the Archdiocese and Cardinal Keeler to establish a Commission of Inquiry, and this was accomplished on June 12-13, 2001, at St. Mary\u2019s Seminary in Baltimore, Maryland. Three commissioners were appointed by Cardinal Keeler. At the completion of the first day\u2019s morning meetings, the commissioners met with Keeler. All three and through them Cardinal Keeler were invited to witness the apparition of Our Lady to Gianna Sullivan in the seminary chapel at the end of the day. All refused to do so. However, Our Lady did appear later that day to Gianna accompanied by her husband Dr. Michael Sullivan and two priests who had testified in defense of the authenticity of the apparitions, well-know Marian and mystical theologians Fr. Edward O\u2019Connor from Notre Dame University and Fr. Joseph Iannuzzi. Fr. Robert Faricy, SJ had testified earlier, and world-renowned French Marian theologian Fr. Rene Laurentin had testified in absentia by letter due to health problems.\nIn 2002 the commission submitted a report to the Archdiocese of Baltimore which was strongly rebutted by Fr. Edward O\u2019Connor,CSC, but to no avail. In 2003, on the Vigil of Pentecost, Cardinal Keeler did release his decree. However, nothing has ever been determined to be contrary to the faith and morals of the Roman Catholic Church.\nRead the entire Decree:\nHow did Our Lady of Emmitsburg respond to Cardinal Keeler\u2019s decree?\n\u201c\u2026Do not be bothered by the fact that so many elements are coming towards you that make you feel unworthy and discouraged. When this happens, it should be more of an authentic uplifting and rally for you to know that God Himself is guiding you and leading you onto this new horizon because there is so much evil trying to discourage you and distract you\u2026.So whether there be one person here at the Center of my Immaculate Heart, or whether there be one million, it would remain the same; because if one gave glory to my Son it would be greater than if none did\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmitsburg, Pentecost Sunday, June 8, 2003)\nOur Lady had remained publicly silent from Sept, 2000 until Aug, 2002, when she resumed through Gianna Sullivan a monthly public message to the world which continued through October, 2008, both online and later through a prayer group held on private property in Frederick County, Maryland.\nSO WHAT IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ALL THIS, AND WHY NOW?\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg on February 19, 2003:\n\u201c\u2026It is the beginning to the end. In this beginning I need leaders. Those leaders need to lead, not mislead, but lead; to lead those who are indifferent, those who are righteous, those who are spiritual, those who think they know where they are, those who have a lack of communication skills, and those who cannot discern. Although many of them are in love with my Son, they need a leader and need to be directed what to do and what not to do. I cannot rest this in the laps of my priests, because even my priests do not know\u2026.\u201d (OLOE, Feb. 19, 2003)\nGoodbye, Good Men\nIn April, 2002, author Michael S. Rose, published an investigative report through Aquinas Publishing Company which was entitled Goodbye, Good Men, \u201cAn Expose of the Homosexual Revolution in the Catholic Church.\u201d One of the most scandalous segments dealt with St. Mary\u2019s Seminary in Baltimore, MD, over which Cardinal Keeler was episcopally responsible from 1989-2006, and he was president of the USCCB from 1992-1995.\n\u201c\u2026This is to put it mildly. How can any healthy, heterosexual seminarian expect to be properly formed and prepared for the Catholic priesthood when constantly subjected to that which is so clearly contrary to Church teaching and discipline? How many heterosexual seminarians, whether orthodox or not, have decided to leave the seminary and abandon their vocations because of the \u201cgay subculture\u201d they were forced to endure, because they had been propositioned, harassed or even molested? We\u2019re not talking here about the presence of a few homosexually-oriented men who conduct themselves with perfect chastity. Rather, there exists an intense and often threatening atmosphere.\nAccording to former seminarians and recently ordained priests, the \u201cgay subculture\u201d is so prominent at certain seminaries that these institutions have earned nicknames such as Notre Flame (for Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans) and Theological Closet (for Theological College at the Catholic University of America in Washington D.C.). St. Mary\u2019s Seminary in Baltimore has earned the nickname \u201cThe Pink Palace\u2026.\u201d\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg Puts All this in Perspective\n\u201c\u2026The fact is that I do uphold my priests. I do support this Church, the Church of my Son. I do support everything in obedience to the Hierarchy of the Church; but when there is error and when the \"truth\" is not the Truth, then all must be revealed.\nI am not concerned about what anyone would say to you against my most Immaculate Heart, because I belong to God, just as you belong to God. I am not God, so I cannot judge. Justice rests between their own souls and God when they meet their Creator.\nHowever, I have also spoken in the past that my Son is the Light of the world. If something is not correct, then if you do not speak up and challenge and change this, you will be held accountable. There are many of my beloved Christian children who are so afraid, afraid because they are confused and afraid because they fear disobedience; but there has also been a tremendous sin of omission on the part of some in the Church Hierarchy\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmtsburg, February 6, 2006)\nPENNSYLVANIA REAL-TIME NEWS, August 21, 2018\nIn the wake of clergy sex abuse report,\nCardinal Keeler's legacy is being rewritten\nThe report of the 40th Statewide Investigating Grand Jury implicates Keeler, who served as bishop of Harrisburg from 1983 to 1989, of failing to take meaningful action to prevent an abusive priest from having access to children.\nPer the order of Harrisburg Bishop Ronald Gainer, Keeler's name was removed last week from any property owned by the diocese. Gainer took similar action for all of his predecessors dating back to 1947, in response to what he said was their failure to protect children from predatory priests\u2026.\n...David Lorenz, a member of Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests in Bowie and Baltimore, has in the past expressed some leniency towards Keeler for having released the names of accused predators\u2026.\"After reading the report and hearing what Keeler had done ....clearly he did a lot of things, but clearly he was hiding priests and he knew he was hiding priests,\" Lorenz said.\nThe Baltimore Sun Details Cardinal Keeler\u2019s\nactions in Baltimore during early 1990\u2019s\n\u201cKeeler was notified of the alleged abuse in 1987, according to the grand jury. He said he preferred to have Long\u2019s religious order, the Jesuits, reassign Long.\n\u2018Keeler was informed that Long had admitted to the conduct,\u2019 the grand jury wrote. \u2018In spite of such knowledge, Keeler, now in his capacity as Cardinal of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, returned Long to ministry in a Roman Catholic Archdiocese.\u2019\nThe grand jury quoted from a 1995 church memo regarding Long in Baltimore in 1991 and 1992: \u2018Shortly after his assignment, reports were again received of inappropriate behavior on his part.\u2019\nLong was removed from ministry in 1995.\u201d\nRead entire news article\u2026.\nMt. St. Mary\u2019s University, Emmitsburg, MD,\nExecutive Committee Revokes Keeler\u2019s Honors and Awards\n\u201c\u2026Last week I made recommendations to the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees about actions to take regarding these honors, awards or special recognitions. The Executive Committee decided to revoke honors in accordance with these recommendations, which were based on the credible evidence contained in the grand jury\u2019s report. The most prominent individual honored by the Mount is Cardinal Keeler. We will remove his name from the Cardinal Keeler Seminary Dining Room, which will now be called the Seminary Dining Room; revoke all awards and honors given; and remove all portraits and other listings of his name in places of honor\u2026.\u201d\nRead the entire letter from President Thomas Trainor\u2026.\nEarlier this month (September 2018) a pilgrim to the National Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes on the campus of Mt. St. Mary\u2019s University, stopped into the Grotto office and made a $1000 donation to have a memorial \u201cpaver\u201d concrete square placed on the Seton Walkway with the inscription, \u201cOur Lady of Emmitsburg, pray for us.\u201d A few days later he received the following e-mail from Grotto staff at the direction of University Administration:\n\u201cHappy Thursday to you. My apologies but because of the attached letter and the Archdiocese of Baltimore\u2019s policy we are unable to have your paver installed at the National Shrine Grotto. We hope that this does not affect your decision to preserve a memory. If you would like to provide another inscription I am happy to assist you.\u201d\nAnd what Archdiocesan policy is this referring to?\nIn November, 2008, at a time when Our Lady was challenging both the clergy and the laity to holiness and alerting the world to the \u201cend times\u201d toward which it was heading, Archbishop Edmund O\u2019Brien of Baltimore widely distributed the following Pastoral Advisory from the pulpits and in the newspapers and online. Of course, it was picked up nationally and throughout the world:\n\u201c\u2026Therefore, I strongly caution all the faithful regarding these purported apparitions to be guided by the Magisterium which cannot affirm them as authentic. The confusion and division that have come as a result of these apparitions have prompted me to take this public and decisive step\u2026.\nFurther, I strongly caution those who participate in any activity surrounding these alleged apparitions or who seek to disseminate information and promote them here in the Archdiocese. To do so is a great disservice to the Church and creates further confusion and division among the faithful\u2026.\u201d\nRead the entire Pastoral Advisory\u2026.\nNor can they affirm that the apparitions are not authentic!\nHowever, as the faithful read reports from the Vatican and investigative reports online, it appears that now Cardinal Edmund O\u2019Brien who now works in the Vatican may himself be in need of a Pastoral Advisory:\n\u201c\u2026As far as the Roman Curia is concerned, for the moment I will stop here, even if the names of other prelates in the Vatican are well known, even some very close to Pope Francis, such as Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio and Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, who belong to the homosexual current in favor of subverting Catholic doctrine on homosexuality, a current already denounced in 1986 by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, then-Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, in the Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church on the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons. Cardinals Edwin Frederick O\u2019Brien and Renato Raffaele Martino also belong to the same current, albeit with a different ideology. Others belonging to this current even reside at the Domus Sanctae Marthae\u2026..\u201d\nRead entire Cardinal Vigano letter\u2026.\nOn August 27, 2018, the American Conservative follows up\nwith an enlightening article on the \u201cTwo Faces of Cardinal O\u2019Brien\u201d\nIn your most recent post on the fallout from Archbishop Vigano\u2019s letter, you wrote:\n\u201c\u2026For years I\u2019ve been told that the 2005-06 Vatican-ordered investigation of US seminaries was a sham because it was led by then-Archbishop, now Cardinal, Edwin O\u2019Brien \u2014 believed by some insiders to be part of the lavender mafia, the gay lobby within the Church intent on protecting its own. In his testimony, Vigano says that O\u2019Brien is indeed part of this group. How is it possible for anybody Rome appoints from within the Church to investigate now? It\u2019s not\u2026.\u201d\nAnd if the faithful had not heard enough scandal over the past few weeks, we now hear that the Pope has appointed rchbishop William Lori of Baltimore to assume duties over the Diocese of West Virginia while recently resigned Bishop bows to the pressure of sex abuse allegations. In a September 13, 2018 article on Church Militant, we now see that the trustworthiness of Archbishop Lori is being questioned:\n\u201c The problem is that Lori, who Rome chose to investigate his fellow bishop for clerical sex abuse, was instrumental in exempting bishops from provisions of the 2002 Dallas Charter for the Protection of Young People.\nArchbishop Elden Curtis of Omaha spoke up at the meeting in 2002 asking why a revision of the document replaced the term \u201cclerics\u201d with the words \u201cpriests and deacons.\u201d Curtis pointed out, \u201cBishops are also clerics.\u201d Bishop Lori, then the ordinary of Bridgeport, explained the switch in terminology. The drafting committee, said Lori, \u201cdecided we would limit it to priests and deacons, as the discipline of bishops is beyond the purview of this document. \u2018Cleric\u2019 would cover all three, so we decided not to use the word \u2018cleric.\u2019\n\u201c\u2026Faithful Catholics find it hard to understand how Lori, who helped exempt bishops from the charter on sex abuse some 16 years ago and who does nothing about the dissident gay group in his own diocese, can be tapped to authentically investigate alleged homosexual predation in the diocese of his fellow bishop\u2026.\u201d\nNearly all the faithful have always had very limited access to address the institutional hierarchical Church in our dioceses, our nation or the Vatican. Certainly, the Foundation of the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary shares that same frustration and limitation. However, to the degree that we can get some attention, we would like to ask:\n1. Are not the same Church officials in our country and in the Vatican, who have participated in or at least silently allowed this subculture to grown like a cancer, are not these the same officials who are discerning and making decisions about the \u201csupernaturalness\u201d and \u201cworthiness of belief\u201d of so many of the sources of private revelation from Our Lord and Our Lady over several decades and even a couple centuries?\n2. Are we expected to believe that these decisions or dismissal of the words of Our Lord and Our Lady from multiple apparition sites including Emmitsburg, especially those which challenged the Church and its clerics**, are based on Spirit-filled discernment and the exercise of legitimate ecclesiastical authority or rather a warped sense of ecclesiastical inconvenience and preference? **(Quito, Montichiari, Garabandal, Ohio, Akita, Emmitsburg, Itapiranga and more)\n3. Finally, how much pain, suffering and loss do the Church leaders need to see before they give credence to the fact that God through His messengers is trying to use men and women as instruments of His Divine Will, delivering the messages of Our Lord, Our Lady and the saints to the Church and the world?\nIt may be too late for the Church to act in a responsible way in regard to the private revelation of these end times, because its efforts to be responsible for the very scandals that permeate its hierarchical ranks will most likely be all-consuming. Thank God we do have the promises from Our Lady of Emmitsburg that at the most perfect time God will vindicate and authenticate His messengers and Her message that they carry from Heaven:\n\u201c\u2026 For this I bless you and I thank you for the pain you have endured and for withstanding the massive attack that has here been launched against me and my Son. He will vindicate you; but He must first reveal those who are proud and those who on the surface seem committed and sincere, but are really wolves only waiting to destroy and devour the innocent\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmitsburg, June 29, 2003)\n\u201c\u2026So, what must first take place here, which is different from my other apparition sites in the world, is that the works of Mercy and the works of commitment that contradict the ways of the world have to unfold. As you continue to fulfill the mission of my Son, His Mission of Mercy, then the credibility which becomes you through your humble ways and your devotion will set the precedent for the world. This then will pave the way for God when He intervenes as the Father of all and authenticates my presence here\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmitsburg, May 27, 2005)\n\u201c\u2026Cardinal Keeler will die, and then the Archbishop will announce that all people are welcomed to pilgrimage here to my Center. Because they could not stop pilgrims from coming, they will reopen (the commission of enquiry) and once again begin to review my presence. They, in turn, will even want to receive blessings from Heaven. This will all unfold because of your faithfulness and courage in following Jesus in good times and in bad. All will want to know what to do, but they will only learn through their own intimacy with Jesus, prayer, listening and in suffering. I love you and bless you\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmitsburg, September 29, 2008)\nCardinal Keeler died on March 23, 2017\nIn closing, it might be worth revisiting the document that was compiled by Dr. Michael Sullivan in 2012 which highlighted Sacred Scripture, the Words of God the Father to the world, the Lessons of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Messages of Our Lady of Emmitsburg, regarding preparation (or lack there of) and the clergy:\nPreparation and the Clergy\u2026.\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg\u2019s Promise:\n\u201c\u2026As you give of yourselves, my Son too continues to give of Himself. He is always there for you. He will not leave you, and I will not abandon you. I am with you\u2026.This is my home. I am not leaving. I am here because this is a gift from my Son, for all the people to come. My Son gives; and He is not going to take away\u2026.\u201d (Our Lady of Emmitsburg, September 5, 2004, Feast of St. Teresa of Calcutta)\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg, pray for your \u201cclerics\u201d!\nOur Lady of Emmitsburg, pray for us!\nMother and Queen of the End Times, pray for us!",

        "title": "The Heavy interview with Place Of Skulls: Like The Dogs Do | The Aquarian",
        "raw_content": "The Heavy interview with Place Of Skulls: Like The Dogs Do\nPlace Of Skulls guitarist/vocalist Victor Griffin is a bon afide doom legend. The Knoxville, Tennessee, native helped shape the American riff-led underground as a member of Death Row and Pentagram in the 1980s, and in the decade Place Of Skulls has been together, they\u2019ve produced some of the finest traditional doom to be found the world over, in albums like Nailed and With Vision.\nGriffin\u2014who also rejoined Pentagram earlier this year and is featured on their forthcoming album, Last Rites\u2014has just seen the release of Place Of Skulls\u2019 fourth studio offering, As A Dog Returns, and recently took some time out to discuss the record, his faith, working with Pentagram again, and much more. Please enjoy.\nTalking about As A Dog Returns, was it strange for you to go back to Place Of Skulls and pick that band up again after some time away from it?\nNot really. It was sort of an unintentional break that we took. Lee [Abney, bass, also of Death Row] and I both had some personal problems pop up. He suddenly was going through a divorce back in 2007, and I\u2019d fallen back into a couple of old habits, unintentionally. So things were sort of messed up in both our personal lives. It was something we needed to attend to, and it just so happened that we ended up taking a lot more time off than we intended to. I just really couldn\u2019t come back until I felt like I was mentally and spiritually ready.\nA couple of years ago, I wasn\u2019t even sure it would ever happen again, for Place Of Skulls at least. But late last year, we started jamming a little bit again\u2014rehearsing and that kind of thing\u2014and I\u2019d been writing some new songs over the past couple of years, and starting to piece those things together. I started to work things out and we ended up going into the studio to record the new album a lot sooner than we anticipated.\nI just happened to talk to Travis Wyrick, who is the guy at Lakeside Studios, where we normally record\u2014this is back last December\u2014and he had some time open in late January, and said we could have three or four weeks. Initially I told him there was no way we could come in that early, but he said he didn\u2019t have any other time open until midsummer, he was fully booked up until then, and we didn\u2019t want to wait that long, so we just went in the studio with half the stuff worked out, half the stuff just (laughs) on a wing and a prayer and did what we did.\nIt came out pretty good, I think, for the circumstances at the time. I\u2019m starting to get used to and to like the idea of going into the studio a little bit unprepared instead of everything fully worked out. I think you come up with some cool surprises that way. Some of the cool stuff happens on albums, I think, that you don\u2019t expect, when you don\u2019t have the stuff 100 percent rehearsed.\nI was going to say, a lot of people do that on purpose.\nYeah. We kind of did that on The Black Is Never Far too, but not quite as unrehearsed as we were on this album. It becomes sort of a pressure-cooker situation, but I\u2019ve really started to like it that way. You just really come up with some cool stuff that you would never come up with otherwise. I don\u2019t know, I might end up doing the rest of the albums I ever do that way as well.\nWhat was it then that made you pick Place Of Skulls back up again? Like you said, there were some rough times there. What made you go back to it?\nI probably have to give a lot of credit to Tim [Tomaselli, drums] and Lee on that. I was in limbo and wasn\u2019t necessarily looking to jump back into music quite yet. I was still dealing with some issues, and those guys kind of were behind me as my friends, gave me all kinds of support. They really wouldn\u2019t let me give up.\nNot that I was gonna give up, but they kept pushing me to get it going again, before I felt like I was ready, but maybe they could see something I couldn\u2019t at the time. I really give them a lot of credit as far as getting the thing rolling again. It would have taken another year to do it if I didn\u2019t have those guys pushing. I didn\u2019t have any other prospects.\nI wasn\u2019t interested in doing anything outside of Place Of Skulls, and even Place Of Skulls at the time. I give them a lot of credit. They supported me through the whole thing and were the main force for getting it back together, probably.\nDo you think of Place Of Skulls as a vehicle or a means of expression for your faith?\nI don\u2019t look at it as a means. I write songs, depending on what I feel, how I think and what I think is from my heart. I don\u2019t write songs, going into it, like, \u201cI\u2019ll write this song because I think people are gonna like it,\u201d or, \u201cI\u2019m gonna do this kind of riff because I think it\u2019ll be catchy and the doom metal crowd will dig it.\u201d It goes the same for lyrics. If I did that, I don\u2019t think I would be doing a service to myself or whoever our fans might be. Because they wouldn\u2019t be really listening to anything that\u2019s coming to my heart.\nAs far as this new album goes, I realize there\u2019s a lot of stuff lyrically that\u2019s pretty way out there, as far as the issue of God and faith and all that type of thing. But it wasn\u2019t to be a vehicle to proselytize or draw people into my way of thinking or anything like that. It\u2019s really just how I feel about my faith, what I\u2019ve been dealing with regarding my spiritual life, and how I see my relationship with God. How it\u2019s grown, how it\u2019s not grown, and where I\u2019ve failed in those kinds of things too. And those couple of years off, when Place Of Skulls was down, I was dealing with a lot of issues that are quite personal, but at the same time, had a lot to do with my spiritual life and how I\u2019ve failed in that area. Music and lyrics is just my outlet for expressing myself, and it\u2019s not really a means.\nI\u2019m not trying to tell anybody that you have to think like I think. We all have a free will to do that. I wish people could just see it as me, as if I\u2019m talking to you, telling you this is what\u2019s happened to me in my life and this is how I\u2019ve had to deal with it and the way I\u2019ve dealt with it. That\u2019s how I look at it. It just happens to come out in music, instead of a normal conversation. But there\u2019s people who aren\u2019t going to take it that way, and I understand that.\nI knew when this album came out that there was going to be a lot of backlash about the lyrical content and all that. Frankly, I don\u2019t really care. I never have cared, as far as what people thought about the music I play, the style of music or the words I write. And that goes all the way back to Death Row and Pentagram in the early \u201880s. It is what it is, and it\u2019s where I\u2019m at at the time. I feel like there\u2019s integrity in it, so that\u2019s the way I have to write and play music.\nTell me about working with Bobby again, rejoining Pentagram.\nThat\u2019s something I never really planned for. Back in March, his guitar player, Russ [Strahan], quit the band suddenly, and he was stuck without a guitar player. He called me and wanted to know if I would fill in. He actually just wanted me to fill in on the one tour where they had a substitute guy, and one day to prepare. I couldn\u2019t do that because I had other things going on, but I told him I would come in and do the May tour that we did, and that would probably be it, but once I got on the road with him\u2014one of the big issues too, I wanted to see how Bobby was dealing with everything.\nHis past is no secret as far as the tendency on drugs and having problems with drugs in that kind of thing, and I didn\u2019t want to get back into a situation with that. But once we were out, and I actually saw that he\u2019s really holding it together and trying hard to maintain his sobriety, he\u2019s doing a really good job at it. He\u2019s come so far.\nWe talked a lot about it, and I told him that I\u2019d be glad to do it and stay in the band as long as I could, as long as he was putting forth the effort to maintain his sobriety like he is now. Everything\u2019s been working out pretty smoothly. Neither one of us had any idea we\u2019d ever play together again, really. A year ago, I\u2019d just assumed we probably wouldn\u2019t. But the way things have turned out, it\u2019s been pretty cool.\nWe just finished this new album, and we\u2019ve got a couple of tours coming up in April and in the summer. It\u2019s rolling along pretty good.\nWhat was it like being back in the studio?\nIt was pretty relaxed, actually. We used to have some pretty serious wars at our rehearsals and in the studios. Disagreements that ended up in big, blown-up arguments and that kind of thing. We didn\u2019t really have any of that. Bobby and I get along pretty good. We always have. We\u2019ve never really fallen out with each other, the way the other guys in the band have. We haven\u2019t always maintained contact over the years, but we\u2019ve never really fallen out with each other.\nWe\u2019ve always had a good working relationship, and we\u2019re similar songwriters, so our material works well together, and our production ideas are very similar and so it\u2019s always been pretty easy for Bobby and I to come to an agreement on how we want things to sound, what we want a song to do and all of that, all that goes into putting an album together. It\u2019s been fun. Old times (laughs) coming back.\nBobby, with him being straight now, every situation is just so much easier to deal with. And as far as that goes, me being straight too. Back when I was in Pentagram before, really nobody in the band was very straight, but I think Bobby of course was way over the top, more than anybody else, and me probably after that, so we weren\u2019t very influential in a good way on each other very much. Now we are and it\u2019s working out really good. We laugh a lot and take things a lot easier. We don\u2019t take ourselves so seriously anymore.\nAs A Dog Returns is available now on Giddy Up!

The only thing that stopped me was the impact it would have on my family. It wasn\u2019t my area. I was sent there to give me every opportunity to succeed professionally and in life generally. But no one had my back and I was part of a culture and a family where men didn\u2019t talk about feelings and I was ashamed and embarrassed I was allowing it to happen. I didn\u2019t even have the language or the confidence to communicate what I felt. I\u2019m not quite sure how it started but I know I was in a dark place at the time. I collected knives from a young age. Sometimes I would just drink until I couldn\u2019t feel anything anymore and started hacking at my arms and chest. The physical pain for me was far easier to manage the one I felt in my head and my heart. Cutting myself was the only way I knew to express it. This went on intermittently for years until a friend I was living with at the time found out. I got so drunk one night self-harming in my room I forgot there was someone else in the house. I walked downstairs without a top, covered in blood. I grabbed a bottle from the fridge and when I turned around, I saw my housemate sitting in the chair, horrified at the sight of me.

They include Kafr El Sheikh, Al Qahirah, Gharbia, and Qalyubia in the north; Minya in north central Egypt; and New Valley in the southwest. Five of the events involved backyard birds, and the one in New Valley governorate occurred at a farm.\nTaken together, the virus killed 120 of 1,344 susceptible birds. The remaining ones were culled to control the spread of the virus. Also, as part of the outbreak response health officials vaccinated about 543,000 poultry in four of the affected governorates: Gharbia, Minya, Qalyubia, and Kafr El Sheikh.\nRead the full article on the Centre for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) website here.\nPoultry Health, Production Management, Biosecurity and Hygiene, Government and Regulatory, General, Farmer/Worker Health & Safety",

The young child actors in the film really impressed me (and were absolutely adorable might I add). The entire cast was excellent. I also really enjoyed the cinematography. If you're a fan of films that are inspired by actual events, this is something you'll appreciate. The Academy also acknowledged lead actress, Naomi Watts, with a best actress nomination.\nWhen a film moves you to tears, it gets an A in my book. An awkward exit from the theater is well worth the experience. The message of The Impossible is one of fate, family, camaraderie and love.\nSidenote: I adored the use of Damien Rice's \"One\" cover in the trailer above:\nLabels: Favorites, films, flick pick, movie review, movies, movies based on true stories, the impossible, tsunami",

In particular, it was the express purpose of Eleazar Wheelock to train Native Americans to be missionaries to other indigenous peoples in North America, a purpose enshrined in Dartmouth\u2019s charter of 1769:\n\u2018Know ye therefore that we [will] encourage the laudable . . . design of spreading Christian knowledge among the Savages of our American Wilderness . . . [and therefore] . . . do . . . ordain, grant, and constitute that there be a College erected in our said Province of New Hampshire by the name of Dartmouth College for the education and instruction of the Youth of the Indian Tribes . . . in reading, writing and all parts of Learning which shall appear necessary for civilizing and christianizing Children of Pagans.\u2019\nWhile the wording sounds awkward to modern ears, Wheelock\u2019s purpose was laudable, and inspired by his friendship with a Mohegan Indian by the name of Samson Occom, a direct descendent of Uncas, the famous Mohegan chief.\nAt the age of twenty, Occom was able to sit under to the foremost preachers of the Great Awakening \u2013 George Whitefield, Jonathan Edwards, and John Wesley \u2013 and, as a result, gave his heart and life to Jesus Christ.\nNot long afterwards, Occom asked Eleazar Wheelock to disciple him in his new-found faith. Immediately, Wheelock recognized the profound spiritual transformation of his prot\u00e9g\u00e9\u2019s heart and dreamed of founding a college where more Indians could be shepherded in Christ.\nWheelock dispatched Occom to England to raise money for the college, where a large grant was secured from the second Earl of Dartmouth, whose name now adorns the college.\nBut what begins with noble, God-honoring aspirations doesn\u2019t always end that way.

        "raw_content": "Mirror therapy for back pain?\nDiscussion in 'General Discussion Subforum' started by Pemberley, Oct 11, 2018.\nPemberley Peer Supporter\nHas anyone tried mirror therapy for back pain? I came across this article about it, and it makes a lot of sense for helping to reduce fear of movement. Think it can be done without a physical therapist? Can it support TMS work?\nhttp://neurotopian.blogspot.com/2014/12/mirror-therapy-for-low-back-pain.html (The Neurotopian: Mirror Therapy for Low Back Pain)\nAlso, a longer video here that starts with low back pain and moves on to other movement issues (hands/arms/feet, etc.). It\u2019s interesting what he says about tattoos and jewelry (if you\u2019re dealing with pain on one side and not the other):\nPemberley, Oct 11, 2018\nPemberley said: \u2191\nHi Pemberley,\nTherapy, whether mirror therapy or any other therapy is in contradiction to TMS work. One of the first things one must do with TMS work is stop all forms of therapy.\nRegarding tattoos or piercings, could you tell us what the video says about them please? I have limited internet so can't watch the 25 minute video to find out.\nThanks for the response, EileenS! I am hesitant about \"therapy\" too and stopped PT years ago. From what I've read so far, mirror therapy comes from studying neuroplasticity and phantom limb pain (the works of people like V. S. Ramachandran and, I think, Lorimer Moseley). I find it interesting that this is a video from a physical therapist training -- it's like they're using neuroplasticity (for psychogenic pain) to help people visualize by actively watching that their back, knee, hands, etc. are healthy and OK. It's like trying to rewire your brain but coming at it from a physical standpoint -- from sight. I think he even says somewhere that visualizing a healthy back (without the mirrors) works too -- which I've read from many TMS experts. But if you're stuck, then actually SEEING it can help. So they're not saying that this or that type of exercise is going to help you like in regular PT. It's like they're using mirrors to trick your mind into visualizing a healthy body.\nMy pain started with a physical injury, which healed and then the pain never went away (because, I now know many years later, of the trauma associated with that injury). I could see why a PT might use this form of therapy to help someone who is recovering from a recent injury so that they don't get stuck in a pain loop/pathway. I wonder if, after many, many years of pain, can you still \"trick\" your brain out of pain?\nThe tattoos and piercings are for people with pain on one side of their body. It won't help if, for example, you associate the pain with the side of your body that has your wedding band or a tattoo. It makes sense -- the mirror image needs to look like the other side of your body that doesn't feel pain (or maybe I have that backwards...?).\nThe mirror therapy sounds like the description of Feldenkrais therapy, which I read about in one of Dr Norman Doidge's books. He writes about neuroplasticity and writes from a clinical standpoint (as opposed to a woowoo standpoint) and his books are interesting reads if you are needing confirmation that the brain can be rewired. Sarno's pure method is to not do any therapies. Personally, I have sometimes \"followed my heart/inner voice\" to do other things and they have helped me, but that doesn't mean they will help others. The trick is to do something because you somehow just know you need to, as opposed to continually searching because that searching will keep you stuck in pain.\nRe: tattoos and piercings. So it sounds like you mean they say, if you have pain on one side of the body then get a piercing on the other side? Sort of as a way to take the mind off the side with the pain? Sounds pretty drastic. I'd rather do acupuncture which I just finished doing for 6 months to rewire nerves and the brain. I had very invasive surgery in my neck under my left ear 10 years ago that left me with nerve damage when the nerves grew back. The acupuncture needles were painful going in, but at least not permanent and now I can sleep on my left side again for the first time in 10 years.\nOh, no -- nothing drastic like that! They're saying that they recommend taking the ring off your finger or covering your tattoo with skin-colored tape so that it can look like the OTHER hand.\nSomeone recently recommended Norman Doidge to me, so I will look into that. But, yes -- I'm interested in the mechanics of it all. I'm glad that you had success with acupuncture. I found it very helpful for healing a true physical injury in my arm many years ago.\nNot sure if this will be helpful, but a measure I've been using lately when deciding to do an activity that is treatment-related, is, am I doing this out of motivation to get rid of pain? Or am I doing this because I think it will make me a happier person with a more balanced nervous system? If it's about the pain, then I don't do it, but if I answer yes to the second question, then I will try it.\nI do Feldenkrais almost daily, by the way, because it fits the second question. the biggest breakthrough I've had in all of this, and what allowed me to start believing in TMS, was after a feldenkrais session with a practitioner.\nso so if the motivation is fear-based, I don't do it. But if the choice feels more about growth and relaxation, then I do.\nEileenS, JanAtheCPA and BloodMoon like this.\nThis is such great advice \u2013 am I doing this out of motivation to get rid of pain, or because I think it will make me a happier person with a more balanced nervous system? I feel hopeful that applying this question to things is going to help a lot. Thank you!",

        "raw_content": "The company was founded by Karl Friedrich Rapp in October 1913 , initially as a manufacturer of aircraft engines, Bayerische Flugzeug-Werke. But in 1916 a company signs a contract to produce engines V12 for the Austro-Hungarian Empire . At that time nobody could have predicted that the airline will become a giant car. Most of BMW was marked by the production of aircraft power plants. At the same time was developed by a famous row \"Six\" - the power unit, designed for the aviation industry, but having gone further in the automotive base.\nOfficial Website: www.bmw.com\nArmenian Website: www.bmw.am",

        "raw_content": "Major commodities including oil, gold and silver rallied last week after they had tumbled a week earlier. Equities and forex markets haven\u2019t done much during last week. The focus of attention might shift back to forex as many important meetings and decisions will come into play next week. These include: ECB rate decision, FOMC meeting, U.S non-farm employment report, China and U.S manufacturing PMI, Spain\u2019s GDP first quarter estimate, EU economic outlook, Japan\u2019s monetary base, U.S and Canada\u2019s trade balance reports, and U.S. jobless claims. Here is an economic outlook for the week of April 29th to May 3rd regarding the U.S, China, Euro Area, Japan, Canada, and Great Britain.\n13:30 \u2013 U.S Personal spending: this monthly report will refer to the changes in income and outlays in the U.S during March; in the last report regarding February the personal income rose by 0.7%.\n15:00 \u2013 U.S. Pending Home Sales: This report shows the developments in pending home sales in the U.S.; in the recent report, the pending home sales index slipped by 0.4% (M-over-M). These data are another indicator for the changes in America\u2019s housing market; if the housing data will show a drop in sales it may pull down the U.S dollar;\nTentative \u2013 Italian 10 Year Bond Auction: the Italian government will come up with another bond auction; in the previous bond auction, which was held at the end of last month, the average rate reached 4.66%; the recent political developments in Italy might also affect the bond auction;\n07:00 \u2013 German Consumer Climate: Gfk group will publish its German consumer climate index. If this report will further show growth, it might pull up the Euro;\n08:00 \u2013 Flash Spain\u2019s GDP Q1 2013: This report will show the first estimate of the quarterly growth rate of the Spain\u2019s economy in the first quarter of 2013; during the fourth quarter Spain\u2019s economy contracted by 0.7% (Q-2-Q);\n13:30 \u2013 Canada\u2019s GDP by Industry: this monthly present the developments in major industrial sectors for February 2013. In the recent update regarding January 2013, the real gross domestic product rose by 0.2%. This report may affect the Canadian dollar, which is strongly correlated with major commodities prices;\n15:00 \u2013 U.S Consumer Confidence: according to the recent monthly report, the consumer confidence index fell again in February to 59.7 (M-o-M). The current expectations are that the March index may continue to fall; this report might affect commodities rates including the oil and natural gas rates;\n02:00 \u2013 China Manufacturing PMI: Based on the recent report regarding March 2013 the Manufacturing PMI edged up to 50.9; this means that China\u2019s manufacturing sectors is expanding at a faster rate. The flash report showed that the PMI slipped in April but remained above the 50 point mark. If in the upcoming report the PMI will fall below the 50 point mark, it could signal slowdown in China\u2019s economy. If the index will dwindle, this may also adversely affect commodities prices;\n09:30 \u2013 GB Manufacturing PMI: This report will pertain to Great Britain\u2019s manufacturing sector in March 2013. In the previous report regarding February 2013 the index rose to 48.3. This rate bump means the manufacturing sector is contracting at a slow pace; this index might affect GB Pound;\n13:15 \u2013 ADP estimate of U.S. non-farm payroll: ADP will come out with its estimate for the forthcoming U.S non-farm payroll change for April 2013 that will be published on Friday;\n15:00 \u2013 U.S. Manufacturing PMI: This report will refer to April 2013. During March 2013 the index fell to 51.3%; this means the manufacturing is growing at a slower pace; this index may affect foreign exchange rates, crude oil and natural gas markets.\n15:30 \u2013 U.S Crude Oil Stockpiles Weekly Update: the EIA (Energy Information Administration) will come out with its weekly update on the U.S oil and petroleum stockpiles for the week ending on April 26th; in the recent update for April 19th, stockpiles declined by 1.9 ml bl and reached 1,779.8 ml bl.\n19:00 \u2013 FOMC Meeting: The FOMC will convene for the third time this year and announce at the end of two day of session of any updates to its monetary policy and interest rate. In the past couple of meetings the FOMC left its policy unchanged. Moreover, the meeting had little effect on the markets including precious metals. I suspect this will be the case this time. The statement won\u2019t reveal much about the future steps of the Fed and only the minutes might shed some light on the deliberations among the FOMC members. Even in the press conference Bernanke doesn\u2019t offer much news or updates that could stir up the markets. The big question will remain whether the Fed will change its policy in 2013. If The Fed will implement any changes, they will be announced as the year will wind down;\n23:05 \u2013 BOC Gov Carney Speaks: Carney will speak at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton. His speech might affect the Canadian dollar if his speech will provide a surprising headline;\n00:50 \u2013 Japan\u2019s monetary base: Japan\u2019s changes in its monetary base will come out. The rise in the asset purchase program of Bank of Japan is likely to pull up the monetary base and thus may show signs of the economy heating up. According to the recent report, the monetary base rose by 19.8% in the previous month. This report might affect the Japanese yen;\n12:45 \u2013 ECB Rate Decision: ECB will decide its cash rate for May. The current 0.75% rate hasn\u2019t changed since July 2012. The most likely scenario is that ECB will keep the rate unchanged. But the recent hints of ECB President Mario Draghi along with the slowdown in the EU economy might eventually lead the ECB to cut its rate. If ECB will cut the rate, the Euro is likely to fall and it will also drag along with it commodities prices;\n13:30 \u2013 U.S. Jobless Claims Weekly Report: this weekly update will refer to the shifts in the initial jobless claims for the week ending on April 27th; in the latest report the jobless claims rose by 16k to reach 339k; this upcoming weekly report may affect the U.S dollar and consequently commodities and stocks markets;\n13:30 \u2013American Trade Balance: This monthly report for March will present the developments in imports and exports of goods and services to and from the U.S, such as commodities such as oil and natural gas; based on the latest American trade balance report regarding February the goods and services deficit fell during the month to $43.0 billion;\n13:30 \u2013 Canadian Trade Balance: In the previous report regarding February 2013, exports fell by 0.6% and imports inched up by 0.1%; as a result, the trade deficit widen from a $746 million deficit in January to $1.0 billion deficit in February; this report may affect the Canadian dollar which tends to be linked with prices of commodities;\n15:30 \u2013 EIA U.S. Natural Gas Storage Update: the EIA weekly report of the U.S. natural gas market will pertain to the latest developments in natural gas production, storage, consumption and rates as of April 26th; in previous weekly report, natural gas storage rose by 30 Bcf to 1,734 Bcf;\n10:00 \u2013 EU Economic Outlook: This report is updated three times of year and will show the economic forecast for the EU nations for the next couple of years; if the outlook will be improve, it could help pull up the Euro;\n13:30 \u2013 U.S. Non-Farm Payroll Report: in the previous update for March 2013, the labor market only slightly improved: the number of non-farm payroll employment rose by only 88k; the U.S unemployment rate edged down to 7.6%; if in the upcoming report the employment will rise again by below 150 thousand (in additional jobs), this may raise the prices of gold and silver (see here my last review on the U.S employment report);\n15:00 \u2013 U.S Factory Orders: This report will show the shifts in U.S. factory orders of manufactured durable goods during April; in the previous report factory orders rose by 3%; this report will offer some insight regarding the growth of the U.S economy and could affect the direction of the U.S dollar;\n15:00 \u2013 U.S. ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI: This monthly report will refer to the developments in the non-manufacturing sector during April 2013. For latest update, this index fell to 54.4% \u2013 this means the non-manufacturing is expanding and at a slower pace than in the previous month; this index may affect the USD;\n18:05 \u2013 BOC Gov Carney Speaks: Carney will participate in a panel discussion at the Cardus Convivium Project, in Toronto;\nWill the oil Market Heat up Again?\nGold and Silver | Weekly Recap April 22-26\nTags: current crude oil price Economic news calendar global economic calendar forecast gold and silver prices gold prices oil and gas prices weekly forecast financial market\n\u2190 Oil Weekly Outlook for April 29- May 3\nGold and Silver Prices Outlook for April 29 \u2013 May 3 \u2192",

The centre itself houses a walk through gallery which explains everything from the creation of the two parks (Bruce Peninsula National Park and Fathom Five), the geological features, wildlife, and the natural and cultural history of the area. We headed up the 20 metre high tower and took a 20 minute breather at the top for the panoramic view - it seems we are a little out of shape!!\nSoon it was time to head back into town, we'd booked the 1:30pm boat tour and had to park the camper at the general visitor centre in town and walk 5-10 minutes with the equipment to the dock.\nFathom Five was Canada's first National Marine Park established in 1987. It is home to 22 known shipwrecks and with it's crystal clear waters it is a popular diving and snorkeling destination. There are 22 islands in the park which covers an area of 112 square kilometres but only one has basic facilities and that is Flowerpot Island - our ultimate destination for today.\nThese travel blog entries related to Shipwrecks And Flowerpots Of The Fathom Five National Marine Park may interest you too:\nTitle: Shipwrecks And Flowerpots Of The Fathom Five National Marine Park\nTravel Location Blog - Travel Stock Photography - Shipwrecks And Flowerpots Of The Fathom Five National Marine Park",

        "raw_content": "Dems\u2019 hatred for Trump is visible\nWith the release of the \u201cmemo,\u201d we know with Hillary Clinton at the helm, this country would have been an extension of the last eight years and would have suffered through four years with more lies, deceit, fraudulent and criminal acts. All this turmoil led to millions of taxpayers\u2019 dollars spent on investigations allegedly brought about by the Obama Administration, the Clintons, Clinton campaign, DNC and those in highest authority in the FBI and DOJ who abused power to destroy Donald Trump so he wouldn\u2019t win. They do so even as he now serves.\nMost importantly, if Trump had lost, these alleged crimes wouldn\u2019t have been exposed, and the corruption would have continued. But he won.\nIn his first year of service, we have seen the economy grow at a steady and rapid rate. We have experienced the highest wage growth in years, and job growth continues with his deregulations and new policies in place.\nAfter passing tax reform he now is focusing on immigration and building \u201cthe wall\u201d and is offering plans and solutions for these endeavors to the Congress; however, the Democrats don\u2019t appear to agree with anything he recommends. As I see it, it\u2019s not the plans they oppose, but the man, because of hatred they hold for him.\nThis animosity and bitterness have been going on since the 2016 political campaign. At the State of the Union address, one could easily detect hatred by their expressions. Their attitude and demeanor were atrocious and juvenile. The Democrats are not interested in anything Trump proposes because they cannot tolerate him as their president or as a person. Rather than work on good policies for the country, their hostility and antagonism continue.\nHe is everyone\u2019s president and it is quite obvious that he loves this country and wants to make it a better place for all Americans. I do not see Trump as a racist, and we cannot continue calling people racist every time someone disagrees with our opinions. Between \u201cracist\u201d and \u201cpolitical correctness,\u201d we are killing this country. People such as Maxine Watters, Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and some Republicans need to get focused and quit being so combative. They need to work together for the good of this country. I have never before seen Americans and our media tear a man and his family to pieces as they have this president. By not working with him, it clearly and sadly shows that they hate this president more than they love the United States of America.\nELIZABETH J. BALSON",

        "raw_content": "When today\u2019s parents were teenagers, their own parents (today\u2019s grandparents) probably had very different expectations for the career paths of their children. In the 1960-70s, many young teenagers set out to work as soon as they were able, and most of their parents, with their 1940-50s values of hard work and frugal living, encouraged this wholeheartedly. Many of these former waitresses and busboys, however, have very different expectations for their own children.\nToday\u2019s teens are more likely to attend college than their parents, meaning they are probably more likely to place a higher degree of emphasis on their high school education. This means that for some teenagers, a part time job hasn\u2019t even crossed their mind. What\u2019s more, with today\u2019s economy detracting from the number of jobs available even to experienced workers, many parents wonder if their child even could obtain employment. If you are a parent wondering if your teenager should get a job, consider the following tips before making a decision:\nConsider the benefits of a job.\nFor some teens, a part time job could be close to the best thing that\u2019s ever happened to them. Jobs can help to teach your child about responsibility, time management, and \u201cthe value of a dollar.\u201d Other potential benefits include the following:\nThe opportunity to explore possible career areas\nAn increased sense of independence\nExtra spending money/ money towards college, a car, etc.\nPractice with interviewing skills\nMore confidence with social skills\nExperience compromising with coworkers and superiors\nAllowing your teen to get a part time job while still in school could help them to develop valuable life skills and give them the experience they\u2019ll need when they enter the \u201creal world\u201d later in life.\nRemember that there are some drawbacks.\nPart time jobs benefit many teens, but there are also some negative aspects of teenage employment. Teens obviously will have less free time on their hands, so if your teen is not mature enough to handle the job, this could lead to a number of issues. If your son or daughter allows their work schedule to get out of control, they could see a decline in their performance in school, in the amount of time spent with friends and family, and in their interest in exercise and other hobbies.\nIf you set guidelines for your teen, however, these negative aspects could be avoided. If you determine that your teen is ready for employment, be sure to clearly establish some basic rules regarding the number of hours they\u2019re allowed to work and your expectations for them as a student, athlete, or family member.\nEvaluate your teen as an individual.\nMany parents want a simple answer to the question of whether or not they should allow their teen to get a job, but the truth is, it depends entirely on the personality and responsibility level of your son or daughter. There are no hard and fast rules regarding teen employment, so you\u2019ll have to evaluate your teen on an individual basis. There are some questions, though, that can help to make your decision easier. Before reaching a conclusion, ask yourself:\n\u201cDoes my teen/ Will my teen be able to\u2026\u201d\nPerform well in school?\nReact well to criticism (an inevitable aspect of any job)?\nHave a sense of maturity?\nKnow how to handle themselves in stressful situations?\nHave some sense of time management?\nTake their job seriously?\nGenerally act responsibly?\nMake sure your teen understands that even though this is their first job and it is only part time, they should still take it seriously. They will likely want to use this position as a reference, even if only for their next few jobs, so it is important to respect it.",

        "title": "BBC Documentary: Did Jesus Die on the Cross?",
        "raw_content": "BBC Documentary: Did Jesus Die on the Cross?\nApril 21, 2006 - Director Interview - Richard Denton\nWhy do Muslims reject the idea of the Crucifixion altogether\nDid Jesus Die On Cross (BBC Four Documentary)\nThis film investigates the variety of stories surrounding the New Testament account of the crucifixion, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus, by interviewing historians, theologians and historical researchers. This exploration of the latest theories about what really happened to Jesus 2000 years ago uncovers some surprising possibilities.\nAt the heart of the mystery is the suspicion that Jesus might not actually have died on the cross. The film concludes that it was perfectly possible to survive crucifixion in the 1st Century - there are records of people who did. But if Jesus survived, what happened to him afterwards?\nOne of the most remarkable stories concerns the charismatic preacher Jus Asaf (Leader of the Healed) who arrived in Kashmir in around 30 AD. Just before he died at the age of 80, Jus Asaf claimed that he was in fact Jesus Christ and the programme shows his tomb, next to which are his carved footprints which bear the scars of crucifixion.\nWhy do Muslims reject the idea of the Crucifixion altogether?\nBy Sister \"K a r i m a\" in a Yahoo group that does not exist any more!!!\nThere is nothing strange about the Muslims rejecting this idea, because the Quraan in which they believe and accept what it tells them definitively states that it did not happen, as God (Allaah) says (translation of the meaning):\n\"Their saying: Surely we have killed the Messiah, - Eesa (Jesus Christ) son of Maryam (Mary), the messenger of Allaah \" but they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it so appeared to them; and those who differ therein are indeed only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but just a conjecture they are following; and they certainly killed him not.\" (An-Nisaa 4:157)\nAt the mention of - Eesa (Jesus), and the Jewish claim of killing him, God has taken the opportunity to strongly refute their claim that they were successful in having him killed. Although they thought that he was killed, in reality he was not. People were just confused and mixed up on this matter. Although the Christians also believe that he was killed on the cross and was then resurrected and taken to heaven, even they have no knowledge of the facts about Jesus. Their whole story about his passion and his crucifixion is based on hearsay and conjecture, not on facts or knowledge. If we look at Christian sources, we find that there are so many versions, narrations and contradictory reports that it is impossible to say exactly what transpired. No eyewitness accounts are available. Some people believe that the four Gospels are eyewitness accounts, but nothing can be farther from truth. None of the four Gospel writers was a disciple of Jesus and none of the disciples personally witnessed the hanging in any way because, fearful of Roman authorities, they had escaped and gone into hiding. As all four of the accounts are based on hearsay, they are very inconsistent and self-contradictory. That is why the Quraan says that they have no knowledge but are following only conjecture.\nThe question is if people at that time were confused and mixed up and the subsequent generations of Christians are just following some wishful thoughts, not reality, then what really did happen? The Quraan categorically says that he was neither killed nor crucified but Allaah (God) raised him or lifted him up towards Himself. So what does \"Allaah raised him or lifted him up towards Himself\" mean? Obviously, it cannot mean ascension after resurrection because God is categorically denying his death before being raised.\nA simple, straightforward and apparent meaning is that physically he was lifted up and taken to heaven. However, some people who cannot fathom a live person being raised to heaven interpret it to mean that Jesus was raised (elevated) in status. This act of \"raising\" cannot mean raising of a status because neither is it expressly stated nor does the context allow that meaning. While declaring that the adversaries did not succeed in crucifying or killing Jesus, -but- cannot be followed by a mention of Jesus being raised in status. It can only relate to his physical existence.\nSome people may assume that it just means natural death. Being lifted up or raised has never been used in the Quraan to imply death. This meaning is usually assumed by non-Arab Muslims because of the contemporary usage of the word \"raised\" to mean death. Because of the Muslims understanding that the soul of the dying person is raised to heavens, in some languages people have started figuratively using \"raised\" to mean \"died\". Based on that usage, which was developed long after the revelation of the Quraan only in oriental Muslim languages, some people think perhaps the Holy Quraan has also used \"raised\" for his being dead. This is far from the truth. It cannot mean \"raised to heaven in spirit\" as is used in our society for every dying person, regardless of how he died. This meaning, too, does not fit the context and rather makes it absurd because a statement to the effect, \"they did not kill him, but his soul was taken up\ufffd does not make much sense. Also, there is no example of such use of the word \"raised\" either in any other place in the Holy Quraan or in the Arabic usage of the Prophet Muhammad\u2032s time.\nIn addition, none of these meanings (raising of his status or his natural death) can be justified in the context of the verse because immediately after saying - but Allaah lifted him up or raised him, the Quraan refers to Allaah\u2032s Omnipotence and His Wisdom indicating that it was an extraordinary incident involving Allaah\u2032s Power and Authority, not an ordinary human death or raising of someone in status. Thus, \"raised\" in this verse means raised physically.\nLifting up of or raising of Jesus has been mentioned only at one other place in the Holy Quraan - that is in Soorah Aali-Imraan 3:55 where the Holy Quraan says: \"They (Jesus\u2032 enemies) plotted and Allaah also planned, and Allaah is the best of the Planners. At that occasion, Allaah assured, \"O Jesus! I will you take you back wholly, raise you unto Myself, purify you from those who have rejected you, and make your followers dominate those who reject you\". This indicates that Jesus knew before the Roman legion attacked that he will not fall into the hands of the enemy, but will be raised unto Allaah. Although the message here seems to be clear, some people are confused by the use of the word \"Mutawaffeeka\" - \"take you back wholly and completely\". This word means to take something completely. When a person dies, angels take his soul completely. For that reason, a derivative from the same root word is used metaphorically for death of a person. Because of this use of the word, people think that here also it is used for the death of Jesus. But again, this metaphoric meaning does not fit the context properly while the real meaning of the word does. Hence, the real meaning of the word should be used instead of the metaphoric. The Qur\ufffdaan needed to use this word in its real meaning to refute the Christian concept of being raised. Because Christians believe his being raised after resurrection which can only be in spirit, the Qur\ufffdaan, by using the words \"take you back wholly\", indicates that he was raised physically both in body and spirit as a living human being.\nSome people think that Jesus was hanged but was taken down before his death. Some others go further and claim that, afterwards, he lived a normal life, got married and had children. About his subsequent life, some people theorize that he left for India to chase some lost sheep of Israel. There he died in Kashmir and is buried in Sarinagar. Some Japanese think that he migrated to Japan and lived and died there.\nThe Holy Qur\ufffdaan does not support these theories. Had Jesus survived crucifixion and died a natural death, the Holy Quraan would have mentioned it as such. The most important point about the discussions on topics such as these is to remember that the Quraan always states a point clearly instead of using a confusing style. If Jesus had died naturally subsequent to being saved from death on the cross, the Quraan would tell it clearly without mincing words. It would not use the words that give more indication of being raised alive than of dying, especially when there were already a big population of Christians believing in Jesus being raised after resurrection. If the purpose was to contradict the notion of Jesus being raised in any unusual form, it was much easier for the Quraan to say: Jesus did not die on the cross but died of natural causes in such and such circumstances, at so and so place. Instead of a report of that kind, Allaah has very clearly said that Jesus was not even crucified and has used such language that indicates some special, unusual incident of being raised to heaven without being put on the cross.\nHow did he evade arrest and how was he lifted up? How did all that happen? That is where the vagueness comes from. It is beyond our knowledge, experience or imagination. Thus being beyond our understanding, it is a matter of Mutashaabihaat. Allaah does not provide any details about Mutashaabihaat for many reasons.\nFirst of all, Allaah being the Master rightfully expects of His servants to have full trust in Him and accept the facts as they are revealed by Him. As a matter of principle, He never explains how He does things. He just tells us that He commands the things to happen and they do happen. Secondly, even if Allaah had chosen to explain His actions for our understanding, people would have been unable to understand most of the things most of the time because His ways and means are infinite, always beyond human imagination and mostly beyond our finite understanding. Finally, even if Allaah would have given the details of what actually transpired, it would not have any value whatsoever because people would have no way of verifying the truth of the statements. The confusions and doubts would remain as they are. Any further information would have been useless in clarifying the issue and, hence, unproductive. So the statement that the Jews were not able to crucify Jesus and that Allaah raised him is sufficient and enough for the believers to know for all intents and purposes. For reasons such as these, Allaah has not described the way He caused the confusion and saved His messenger to raise him to the heavens. (Source: \"Teachings of the Qur'aan - Soorah An-Nisaa' 150-158\" by Ayub A. Hamid). http://groups.yahoo.com/group/islamicreflections/message/339\nThis difference between their Gospels and their historians with the story of the crucifixion is not the only one. They also differ concerning the timing of the Last Supper, which according to them was one of the events in the lead-up to the crucifixion. They differ concerning the traitor who led (the Romans) to Christ - did that happen at least one day before the Last Supper, as narrated by Luke, or during it, after Christ gave him the piece of bread, as narrated by John?\nAt what hour did this crucifixion take place - was it in the third hour, as Mark says, or in the sixth as John says?\nMark says that the veil of the Temple was torn from top to bottom. Matthew adds that the earth shook and rocks crumbled, and many of the saints rose from their graves and entered the holy city, appearing to many. Luke says that the sun turned dark, and the veil of the Temple was torn in the middle, and when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God and said, \"Truly this man was righteous.\"\n\"Do they not then consider the Quraan carefully? Had it been from other than Allaah, they would surely, have found therein many a contradiction\" (An-Nisaa 4:82)\n\"Then everyone deserted him and fled.\" - Mark 14:50 - New International Version (NIV)\nWe will complete our discussion of the fable of the crucifixion of Christ (peace be upon him) by looking at what the Gospels say about the Messiah\ufffds prediction that he would be saved from death:\n\"I am with you for only a short time, and then I go to the one who sent me. You will look for me, but you will not find me, and where I am, you cannot come.\" - John 7:33-34 - NIV\n-Once more Jesus said to them, \"I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.\"\nThis made the Jews ask, \"Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, \"Where I go, you cannot come\"\"\nBut he continued, \"You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.\n\"Who are you?\" they asked.\n\"Just what I have been claiming all along,\" Jesus replied. \"I have much to say in judgment of you. But he who sent me is reliable, and what I have heard from him I tell the world.\"\nSo Jesus said, \"When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am the one I claim to be and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me.\nThe one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.\" - John 8:21-29 - NIV\n\"For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, \"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.\" - Matthew 23:39 - NIV, also Luke 13:35\n-But a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.\n\"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.\" - John 16:32-33\n-Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads\nand saying, \"You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!\" In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him.\n\"He saved others,\" they said, but he can\u2032t save himself! He\u2032s the King of Israel! Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.\nHe trusts in God. Let God rescue him now if he wants him, for he said, \"I am the Son of God.\"\"\nIn the same way the robbers who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him. - Matthew 27:39-44 - NIV\n\"Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, \"Sit here while I go over there and pray.\"\nThen he said to them, \"My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.\"\nGoing a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, \"My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.\"\nHe went away a second time and prayed, \"My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.\"\nWhen he came back, he again found them sleeping, \"\nThen he returned to the disciples and said to them, \"Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners\"\" - Matthew 26:36-45 - NIV\n\"And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.\n\"Why are you sleeping?\" he asked them. \"Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.\"\" - Luke 22:44-46 - NIV\nBecause of this mockery of the message of Christ \" according to their claims \" and because Christ thought that God was with him and would never forsake him, then it follows that the writer who fabricated this dramatic scene would end it with a vision of the despair of the Messiah and his feelings of being abandoned by God - exalted be Allaah far above what the wrongdoers say. The fabricator says:\n\"From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.\nAbout the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, \"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?\" - which means, \"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?\" - Matthew 27:38-47 - NIV\nIf we understand what this story means when subjected to criticism, the same will apply to the doctrine of redemption and sacrifice that is based on it. http://www.islamqa.com/index.php?ln=eng&QR=12615\nAlthough one of the basic principles of the Muslim\u2032s faith is to believe in the Gospel that was revealed to Eesa (Jesus), we also believe that there is no longer any book that remained as it was revealed by Allaah, neither the Gospel nor anything else, apart from the Quraan. Even the Christians themselves do not believe that the books that they have before them were revealed in that form from God, nor do they claim that the Messiah wrote the Gospel or at least that it was written during his lifetime. Imaam Ibn Hazm (may Allaah have mercy on him) says in al-Fasl fil-Milal (2/2):\nQuote: \"We do not need to try hard to prove that the Gospels and all the books of the Christians did not come from God or from the Messiah (peace be upon him), as we needed to do with regard to the Torah and the books attributed to the Prophets that the Jews have, because the Jews claim that the Torah that they have was revealed from God to Moosa (Moses), so we needed to establish proof that this claim of theirs is false. With regard to the Christians, they have taken care of the issue themselves, because they do not believe that the Gospels were revealed from God to the Messiah, or that the Messiah brought them, rather all of them from first to last, peasants and kings, Nestorians, Jacobites, Maronites and Orthodox are all agreed that there are four historical accounts written by four known men at different times. The first of them is the account written by Matthew the Levite who was a disciple of the Messiah, nine years after the Messiah was taken up into heaven. He wrote it in Hebrew in Judaea in Palestine, and it filled approximately twenty-eight pages in a medium-sized script. The next account was written by Mark, a disciple of Simon ben Yuna, who was called Peter, twenty-two years after the Messiah was taken up into heaven. He wrote it in Greek in Antioch in the land of the Byzantines. They say that the Simon mentioned is the one who wrote it, then he erased his name from the beginning of it and attributed it to his disciple Mark. It filled twenty-four pages written in a medium-sized script. This Simon was a disciple of the Messiah. The third account written was that of Luke, a physician of Antioch who was also a disciple of Simon Peter. He wrote it in Greek after Mark had written his account, and is similar in length to the Gospel of Matthew. The fourth account was written by John the son of Zebedee, another disciple of the Messiah, sixty-odd years after the Messiah has been taken up into heaven. He wrote it in Greek, and it filled twenty-four pages in a medium-sized script. End quote.\nShaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said in al-Jawaab al-Saheeh (3:21): \"With regard to the Gospels that the Christians have, there are four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. They are agreed that Luke and Mark did not see the Messiah, rather he was seen by Matthew and John. These four accounts which they call the Gospel, and they call each one of them a Gospel, were written by these men after the Messiah had been taken up into heaven. They did not say that they are the word of God or that the Messiah conveyed them from God, rather they narrated some of the words of the Messiah and some of his deeds and miracles.\" End quote.\nMoreover, these books which were written after the time of the Jesus the Messiah did not remain in their original form. The original versions were lost long ago. Imaam Ibn Hazm (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:\nWith regard to the Christians, there is no dispute among them or anyone else that only one hundred and twenty men believed in the Messiah during his lifetime - and all of those who believed in him concealed themselves and were afraid during his lifetime and afterwards; they called people to his religion in secret and none of them disclosed himself or practised his religion openly, because any of them who was caught was executed.\nThey continued in this manner, not showing themselves at all, and they had no place where they were safe for three hundred years after the Messiah was taken up into heaven.\nDuring this time, the Gospel that had been revealed from Allaah disappeared, apart from a few verses which Allaah preserved as proof against them and as a rebuke to them, as we have mentioned. Then when the Emperor Constantine became a Christian, then the Christians prevailed and started to practise their religion openly and assemble in safety.\nIf a religion is like this, with its followers practicing it in secret and living in constant fear of the sword, it is impossible for things to be transmitted soundly via a continuous chain of narrators and its followers cannot protect it or prevent it from being distorted. End quote. Al-Fasl, 2/4-5.\nIn addition to this huge disruption in the chain of transmission of their books, which lasted for two centuries, these books did not remain in the languages in which they were originally written, rather they were translated, more than once, by people whose level of knowledge and honesty is unknown. The contradictions in these books and their shortcomings are among the strongest evidence that they have been distorted and that they are not the Gospel (Injeel) that Allaah revealed to His Messenger Eesa (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Allaah indeed spoke the truth when He said (interpretation of the meaning):\n\"Had it been from other than Allaah, they would surely, have found therein many a contradiction\" (An-Nisaa 4:82). http://www.islam-qa.com/index.php?ref=47516&ln=eng",

The creative combining of commercial requirements with social impact represents a significant new investment practice. Impact investing is poised for significant growth in 2015, with $8 billion in planned new investment in Asia and the Pacific alone. The market for social impact investing in private equity is likely to follow a similar trajectory as more institutions embrace both financial return and social outcomes in order to access this new influx of capital. China is viewed as the next frontier of this type of investment and growth in this sector is likely to influence Chinese philanthropy in unprecedented ways.\nAs Chinese businesses and state-owned companies have gone global, China\u2019s philanthropists are also starting to look beyond their borders. Over the last decade, some firms investing overseas have begun to participate in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects that work with local communities. However, lack of local knowledge, experience in implementing development projects and capacity, have kept\nthese initiatives small. More recently, several public foundations in China have also started to work internationally, sometimes by partnering with corporations or state-owned enterprises in their CSR efforts. In 2011, the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation, which has other healthcare projects in Myanmar and Cambodia, built the SudanChina Abu Ushar Friendship Hospital in Sudan, financed by the China National Petroleum Corporation. The project Hope for Africa, initiated by the China Youth Development Foundation in 2011, is building and rehabilitating primary schools in UN-identified Least Developed Countries (LDCs) including Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi and Rwanda.\nMost importantly, more and more philanthropists have started to develop a global vision vis-\u00e0 -vis issues that affect wellbeing in other party of the world. In 2008, Dr. Feng Lun, Chairman of Beijing Vantone Industrial Corporation, started this trend by founding the World Future Foundation, dedicated to building green communities and funding R&D to mitigate climate change. Others have followed his leadership. In 2013 the Cihang Foundation, established by the Hainan Airlines Group started to contribute to the World Food Program and to UNICEF through a donation of 20 per cent of its shares. In 2014 Jack Ma and other Chinese philanthropists established the China Global Conservation Fund to support conservation projects around the world focusing on sustainable development.\nIn 2014, in a somewhat controversial move, the real estate tycoon couple of SOHO, Zhang Xin and Pan Shiyi, donated $15 million and $10 million to Harvard and Yale respectively to establish the SOHO China Scholarships, providing scholarships for Chinese undergraduates to study abroad. While many criticised them for donating to foreign institutions instead of the education sector in China, the move reflected the new international vision of Chinese philanthropists, and their willingness to look\nEagle Plan, Start-up Caf\u00e9 and innovative projects, YouChange helped the growth of a number of social enterprises and leaders. In 2013, along with the Climate Group and Green China Lab, it established the Social Impact Fund (SIF) to support projects that may have the potential of creating value for sustainable development. With expected donations estimated at $80 million, YouChange and its partners have started to identify prospective projects focusing on the environment, food safety, health and aging.\nIn summary, the development of strategic philanthropy has created an ecosystem that connects businesses with charity groups. Not only can charity groups access fundamental support in monetary and technical terms, but their projects are also run more efficiently under the supervision of professional investors. Corporate donors also have better control over the returns of their investments, albeit in the form of social impacts, and thus are more willing to continue their contribution to the social sector.\nJinping and sir fazle abed top of world record job creators place leaders tables - however with many other g20 countrues taking up collaboration invitations from hangzhou- please tell us if you are proud of your place leaders empowering youth to colllaborate (how?) and co-creating the greeatest #learningeneration (how) -chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc 240 316 8157\nwe believe the g20 summits (with year round preparation) are worth tracking since the tremendous collaboration invitations made in hangzhou china G20 , 2016=\n2018 argentina is an opportunity to connect all franciscan and latin american friends ; 2019 al friends from india; i am not sure that we know how to linkin european union 2017 but at least many of our friends know how to linkin english speaking cultures- sustainability goals would be much better described as mass youth collaboration goals and small enterprise free markets - the digital technology we all need to branistorm round is blockchain - what else?\nVALUETRUE.com the world record book of job creation small enterprise great place leaders jinping; great space leaders jack ma; great world bankers jim kim ; great statesmen kissinger great end poverty connectors sir fazle abed ...\nXi Jinping Davos, January 2017\nThere are indeed problems with world economic growth, governance and development models, and they must be resolved.

The Philosophy of the Right to Development Abreast with the Times\nII. The System Ensuring the People's Right to Development\nIII. Effectively Realizing Economic Development\nIV. Enhancing Political Development\nV. Promoting Cultural Progress\nVI. Promoting Social Development\nVII. Accelerating Environment-Friendly Development\nVIII. Promoting Common Development\nDevelopment is a universal human theme, providing for people's basic needs and giving them hope of better life. The right to development is an inalienable human right, symbolizing dignity and honor. Only through development can we address global challenges; only through development can we protect basic civil rights of the people; only through development can we promote the progress of human society.\nChina, with a population of over 1.3 billion, is the largest developing country in the world. Development is the top priority of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in governance and national revitalization, and the key to resolving all other problems. Based on its prevailing conditions, China adheres to the Chinese socialist path and to the philosophy that development is of paramount importance. China integrates the principle of universal application of human rights with the country's reality. While striving to enhance the people's wellbeing through development and materialize their right to development, China endeavors to achieve higher-level development by protecting their right to development. In this regard, China has made notable progress and blazed a path in protecting human rights during the development of human civilization.\nSince the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping as its core has highlighted the idea of people-centered development. In the course of realizing the Two Centenary Goals [Note: The two goals are to complete the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects by the centenary of the CPC (founded in 1921) and to build China into a modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, and harmonious by the centenary of the People's Republic of China (founded in 1949).] and the Chinese Dream of revitalizing the Chinese nation, it has focused on safeguarding and improving people's wellbeing, advancing all social programs, and protecting people's rights to equal participation and development. The aim is to share development benefits and achieve common prosperity among all people of the country.\nOn the 30th anniversary of the publication of the \"Declaration on the Right to Development by the United Nations,\" China, dedicated to advocating, practicing and promoting the right to development, is willing to join the international community to share its philosophy and experience in this regard and to boost sound development of global human rights.\nI.The Philosophy of the Right to Development Abreast with the Times\nEqual access to development opportunities and development benefits are the ideals of human society wherein each and every citizen can achieve well-rounded development and enjoy full right to development.\nThe Chinese people are diligent, wise, innovative and progressive. In traditional Chinese culture, concepts such as \"moderate prosperity\" (xiao-kang), \"great harmony\" (datong), \"having ample food and clothing\" (fengyi zushi) and \"living and working in peace and contentment\" (anju leye) fully reflect the Chinese people's aspiration for and pursuit of a better, happier life. In the long course of history, the Chinese people have always striven for better and shared development opportunities, conditions and benefits. In ancient times, China was for long the world leader in agriculture, and contributed to human progress with extraordinary development achievements. Studies reveal that until the mid-19th century, China's GDP and per capita GDP were the world's highest. Before the 16th century, China contributed 173 of the world's top 300 innovations and discoveries.\nAfter the Industrial Revolution started in the 18th century, China began losing its leadership. Foreign aggression and expansion by Western colonialists completely destroyed conditions for development in China. Repeated invasions by foreign powers, particularly from the West, from 1840 to 1949, and China's corrupt ruling class and backward social system reduced China to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. There was constant warfare, an unstable society, economic depression, no security of livelihood, and extreme poverty. The Cambridge History of China: Republican China 1912-1949 describes China's situation in the first half of 20th century as follows: \"...the great majority of Chinese merely sustained and reproduced themselves at the subsistence level ... the standard of life for many fell short even of that customary level.\" [Note: The Cambridge History of China (Volume 12): Republican China 1912-1949 Part I, Cambridge University Press, 1983, p. 28.] \"As a system, China's economy which was 'pre-modern' even in the mid-twentieth century ceased to be viable only after 1949...\" [Note: Ibid. p. 29.] In these 110 years, the Chinese people struggled arduously for their right to development and equal access to development opportunity. The Chinese people are fully aware of the value of development and of their right to development.\nThe founding of the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949 ushered in a new era for China's development. The PRC has provided full development opportunities and conditions to the people, and vast scope to realize that right. Through more than 60 years of effort, China's overall national strength has greatly increased; standards of living have achieved a historical leap from poverty to moderate prosperity; the people's right to development in economy, politics, culture, society and environment has been effectively protected.\nChina feeds more than 20 percent of the world's population with less than 10 percent of the world's arable land. Through more than 30 years of reform and opening-up, China has lifted 700 million people out of poverty, accounting for more than 70 percent of the global reduction in poverty. China has established the world's largest social security system, and average life expectancy had grown from 35 years in 1949 to 76.34 years in 2015, ranking high among the developing countries. The level of education has soared: in 1949, more than 80 percent of the national population was illiterate, and the enrollment rate of school-age children was only 20 percent. In 2015, net enrollment rates were as follows: primary school-age children - 99.88 percent; nine-year compulsory education -- 93 percent; high school - 87 percent. The enrollment rate for higher education has reached a level approaching that of medium-developed countries. According to the \"China National Human Development Report 2016\" released by the United Nations, China's Human Development Index (HDI) in 2014 ranked 90th among 188 countries, already in the high human development group.\nOver the years, proceeding from reality and following the trend of the times, China has maintained the people's principal position in the country and created its own path by taking the central task of economic development and upholding the Four Cardinal Principles [Note: The Four Cardinal Principles refer to the principles of adhering to the socialist path, the people's democratic dictatorship, the leadership of the CPC, and Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought. The Four Cardinal Principles are the foundation of the state, and the political cornerstone for the survival and development of the Party and the state.] and the policy of reform and opening-up to serve its practice of Chinese socialism, and following the philosophy of innovative, balanced, eco-friendly, open and shared development, and thus contributed to enriching and improving the concept of right to development.\nThe rights to subsistence and development are the primary, basic human rights. Poverty is the biggest obstacle to human rights. Without the production and supply of material goods, it is difficult or even impossible to realize any other human right. Development is a means of eliminating poverty. It provides necessary conditions for realizing other human rights, and releases human potential. The right to development is incorporated into other human rights, while the latter create the conditions for people to facilitate development and realize the right to development. Safeguarding the right to development is the precondition for realizing economic, cultural, social and environmental rights, and obtaining civil and political rights. China appreciates the articulation in the UN's \"Declaration on the Right to Development\" : \"The right to development is an inalienable human right by virtue of which every human person and all peoples are entitled to participate in, contribute to, and enjoy economic, social, cultural and political development, in which all human rights and fundamental freedoms can be fully realized.\"\nThe people hold the principal position concerning the right to development. China values the people's supremacy and regards the people as the fundamental driver of development, striving for the people, relying on the people, and sharing among the people. It takes improving popular wellbeing and well-rounded development as the starting point and ultimate goal, and fully mobilizes people's enthusiasm, initiative and creativity to participate in, contribute to and benefit from development. To build a moderately prosperous society in all respects and realize the Chinese Dream of revitalizing the Chinese nation means to provide better education, more secure employments, more satisfying income, more reliable social security, better medical services, more comfortable housing, and a better environment, so that all individuals can develop, contribute to society, and share the opportunity to pursue excellence and realize their dreams.\nThe right to development is a unity of individual and collective human rights. China values both individual and collective human rights as well as balance and mutual promotion between the two. \"The free development of each individual is the condition for the free development of all people.\" Only through individual development can a collective develop; only in a collective can individuals achieve well-rounded development. The right to development is a human right owned by each individual as well as by the country, the nation and the entire population. The right to development can be maximized only in the unity of individuals and collective. China values the articulation in UN's \"Declaration on the Right to Development\" : \"Equality of opportunity for development is a prerogative both of nations and of individuals who make up nations.\" They are all entitled to participate in and share the benefits of development on an equal basis.\nThe realization of the right to development is a historical course. There is no end either to development or to realizing the right to development. The latter is an ongoing process of improvement. China is still in the primary stage of socialism and will long remain so. The inadequacy in meeting the ever-growing material and cultural needs of the people because of backward social production will remain the principal social problem. As a major developing country, China faces challenging problems and heavy tasks in development. In pursuit of more equal participation and development, China needs consistent efforts to fully realize the people's right to development.\nThe protection of the right to development must be sustainable. Sustainable development is a prerequisite for materializing the right to development, an embodiment of intergenerational equity. Imbalanced, uncoordinated and unequal development reflects unsustainable development, as does an extensive development model. China is pursuing a sustainable approach to production, utilization and consumption of natural resources. China now follows a sustainable and resilient socio-economic development path so as to meet the needs of both present and future generations. China has a development mindset of balance and sustainability, regarding the harmonious development between humanity and nature, between economy and society, as a new means of realizing and protecting the right to development.\nThe right to development must be enjoyed and shared by all peoples. Realizing the right to development is the responsibility of all countries and also the obligation of the international community. It requires governments of all countries to formulate development strategies and policies suited to their own realities, and it requires concerted efforts of the international community as a whole. China calls on all countries to pursue equal, open, all-round and innovative common development, promotes inclusive development, and creates conditions for all peoples to share the right to development. Global economic governance must be based on equality. It must better reflect the new world economic pattern, give an enhanced voice and representation to emerging markets and developing countries, ensure that all countries enjoy equality of rights, opportunities and rules in international economic cooperation, and ensure the right to development is shared.\nII.The System Ensuring the People's Right to Development\nChina has established an integrated system of legislature, strategy development, planning, and judicial remedy to ensure its people's right to development, and makes continued efforts to improve it. The people's right to development is realized through a framework of institutions, strategies, policies and measures that are constructive, practical, efficient, and compulsory.\nThe Constitution and Laws\nChina has established a legal system with Chinese characteristics. With the Constitution at the core, it is based on laws related to the Constitution, the civil laws, the commercial laws, and other major branches of the laws, and consists of laws, administrative regulations, and local regulations, providing a legal basis for the people's right to development.\nAs the nation's fundamental law, the Constitution establishes and protects the people's right to development in all respects. In the Preamble, equal development is set as the fundamental guiding principle, and the nation's core task is to \"promote the coordinated development of the material, political and spiritual civilizations, and to turn China into a socialist country that is prosperous, powerful, democratic and culturally advanced.\" The Constitution establishes such principles as the people's democracy, equal development, and stipulates that \"All power in the People's Republic of China belongs to the people\" ; \"The people administer state affairs and manage economic and cultural undertakings and social affairs through various channels and in various ways in accordance with the provisions of law\" ; \"The state develops a relationship of equality, unity and mutual assistance among all of China's nationalities.\" Article 33 of the Constitution sets the fundamental principle that \"The state respects and preserves human rights.\" In Chapter II, the Constitution stipulates the Chinese citizens' right to economic, political, cultural, and social development.\nChina has promulgated and implemented a series of laws and regulations to protect the right to development of all citizens, especially that of the ethnic minorities, women, children, senior citizens, and the disabled. The Law on Regional Ethnic Autonomy stipulates that people of all ethnic minority groups shall \"speed up the economic and cultural development of the ethnic autonomous areas, work towards their unity and prosperity, and strive for the common prosperity of all ethnic groups and for the transformation of China into a socialist country with a high level of culture and democracy.\" The Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests stipulates that \"Women shall enjoy equal rights with men in all aspects of political, economic, cultural, social and family life. It is a basic state policy to realize equality between men and women. The state shall take necessary measures to gradually improve various systems for the protection of the rights and interests of women and to eliminate all kinds of discrimination against women.\" The Law on the Protection of Minors stipulates that \"Minors shall enjoy the right to life, the right to development, the right to being protected, and the right to participation.\" The Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Elderly stipulates that \"The state shall protect the lawful rights and interests of the elderly. The elderly shall have the right to obtain material assistance from the state and society, the right to enjoy social services and social preferential treatment, and the right to participate in social development and share the achievements in development.\" The Law on the Protection of Disabled Persons stipulates that \"Disabled persons shall enjoy equal rights with other citizens in political, economic, cultural, social, family life and other aspects.\"\nNational Development Strategies\nThe world is a colorful place, with many different development patterns. Summarizing its historical experience and based on its prevailing conditions, China has chosen a socialist path. It strives to build socialism with Chinese characteristics, create a beautiful life for the Chinese people, and realize the people's right to development.\nTo build socialism with Chinese characteristics, China sets its national development strategies based on the need to protect and realize its people's right to development. In the early 1980s, the CPC proposed the \"three-step\" development strategy: First, to double the 1981 GNP and ensure the provision of basic material needs by 1990; second, to double the 1991 GNP by the end of the 20th century and bring people's living standards to a level of \"reasonable prosperity\" ; and third, to quadruple that new GNP to the level of moderately developed countries by the mid-21st century, and bring the Chinese people an affluent life.\nAt the 15th CPC National Congress in 1997, the third step was made more specific, and a new \"three-step\" strategy for the first half of the 21st century was put forward. First, in the first decade of the 21st century, to double GNP compared to the 2000 level, raise levels of prosperity, and form a relatively complete socialist market economy; second, with ten more years' hard work, to further develop the economy and improve various institutions by the centenary of the founding of the CPC; and third, to achieve basic modernization and complete the building of a socialist country that is prosperous, democratic, and culturally advanced by the centenary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in the mid-21st century.\nAfter entering the 21st century, the CPC set itself the strategic task of building a \"moderately prosperous society in all respects.\" Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the Party's Central Committee, with Xi Jinping as its core, has set the \"people's wish for a better life\" as its goal of governance, and defined the Two Centenary Goals. That is, to enable the people to live prosperous lives and complete the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects by 2020, the centenary of the CPC (founded in 1921), and to bring China's per capita GDP on par with that of moderately developed countries, and build China into a modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, and harmonious by the centenary of the PRC (founded in 1949) in the mid-21st century.\nTo achieve the Two Centenary Goals, the CPC strives to promote coordinated progress in economic, political, cultural, social, and ecological areas, and to implement the Four-pronged Comprehensive Strategy, viz., building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, driving reform to a deeper-level, fully implementing the rule of law, and strengthening Party discipline. Based on economic growth, the Party will continue to build the socialist market economy, promote democracy, advanced culture, ecological progress, and a harmonious society, and ensure that the people are better-off, that the nation grows stronger and more prosperous, and that the environment is clean and beautiful, and that the people's right to development is protected and promoted in a more solid and effective manner.\nOverall Development Plans\nIn accordance with the goal to build a modern socialist country and the associated development strategies, the Chinese government regularly makes national development plans to ensure the people's right to development. In the period between 1953 and 2001, it issued national development plans every five years addressing issues concerning the country's economy, culture, and society. After 2006 the plan has been changed to program which is less detailed, with fewer numerical targets to guide the macro-economy and social development. To date China has made 13 consecutive five-year plans (including the program starting from 2006) for the nation's economic and social development. These plans have connected the country's overall development goals to the concrete plans to implement them, and are divided into different stages to steadily promote the people's right to development, with mid- and long-term guidelines, goals and directions, basic requirements, and specific measures.\nOn October 29, 2015, the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee approved the \"Suggestions of the CPC Central Committee on Developing the 13th Five-Year Program for National Economic and Social Development.\" On March 16, 2016, the Fourth Session of the 12th National People's Congress approved by vote the \"Outline of the 13th Five-Year Development Program of the People's Republic of China for National Economic and Social Development.\" Following the new philosophies on development and based on universal participation and benefits, China stresses equal opportunities, with an emphasis on ensuring basic living standards, improving the people's wellbeing, and realizing a moderately prosperous society for all the people. China has made breakthroughs in equal access to the fruits of development, mainly in increasing the supply of public services, carrying out poverty eradication programs, enhancing the quality of education, granting equal access to educational resources, promoting employment and entrepreneurship, bridging the income gap, establishing a fairer and more sustainable social security system, enhancing public health and fitness, and strengthening the balanced development of the people.\nChina ensures its people's right to development also by making national human rights action plans. It has issued the \"National Human Rights Action Plan\" (2009-2010), (2012-2015), and (2016-2020). In these plans, the government puts the people's right to development at the core of human rights, and strives to address the most immediate problems that are of the most concern to the public. While promoting the sound and rapid development of the economy and society, China ensures that all members of the society enjoy the rights to equal participation and equal development.\nSpecial Action Plans\nThe Chinese government formulates special action plans in the fields of economy, culture, society, and environment to ensure people's right to development. It has implemented a wide array of action plans in areas such as poverty alleviation, the Internet, innovation and entrepreneurship, science and technology, trade, and regional development. Specifically, these plans have been designed to promote entrepreneurship and innovation among farmers, to send agricultural specialists to rural areas to develop agriculture, to develop rural and agricultural resources in support of rural migrant workers who return to their home villages to start businesses, to improve people's lives by developing high-tech industries in selected counties, to transform the growth model of the western areas through science and technology, and to revitalize the old industrial bases in the Northeast through science and technology. The state has effectively implemented a series of action plans regarding educational development, health improvement, awards for high-caliber professionals, and the cultural industry, such as the action plans to revitalize education in the 21st century, to enhance teachers' status in the stage of compulsory education in rural areas, to promote special education, to help girls who have dropped out of school to return to campus, and to support the more developed cities in the eastern areas to train professionals for the western areas. China has implemented a series of action plans regarding employment, social security, food and medical care, disability prevention, and health and fitness, such as the Spring Breeze Action Plan to promote employment, and other plans to realize full coverage of social security, to eliminate malaria, to prevent and control nosocomial infection, to carry out rehabilitation programs for children with impairments and disabilities, to reduce the number of newborns with defects and disabilities, to prevent incidences of disability, and to improve the nutritional status and fitness of the Chinese. The state has issued action plans on pollution prevention and control, energy conservation, and biodiversity, such as action plans to prevent and control water pollution, to reduce high-risk pollutants, to utilize coal in a clean and efficient manner, to upgrade and renovate coal power for energy saving and emissions reduction, to build obstacle-free cities or counties for the disabled, and to protect biodiversity.\nChina has also made special plans to ensure the right to development of ethnic minorities, women, children, the elderly, and the disabled. The plans include those on the development of ethnic minorities, of women, of children, of the elderly, and of the disabled persons, with clear goals and targeted policies for different groups to solve the problems hindering their development, ensuring that they can pursue self-development and enjoy the fruits of reform on an equal basis.\nThe Judicial Remedy Mechanism\nChina is making enhanced efforts to strengthen the judicial protection and remedy to ensure the people's right to development. It has built a judicial remedy mechanism in this regard to prevent and punish infringements of people's right to development.\nThe government is driving the reform of the judicial relief system to a deeper level to ensure the right to development of disadvantaged groups. The state provides judicial relief to victims of crimes or parties suffering from infringements of civil rights who cannot obtain effective compensation through litigation, and provides help to parties in certain types of cases who are in dire need of relief and are entitled to such relief. Eligible parties mainly receive relief money, and help in the forms of consultation and education. Judicial relief complements legal aid and litigation relief, and is linked with other forms of social relief and aid. The government is conducting research on opening first-aid fast track at hospitals for those injured in criminal cases, providing psychotherapy for victims with severe PTSD cases, and sending social workers to help immobilized victims, so as to further enhance judicial relief. In 2014 the state issued the \"Opinions on Establishing and Improving the National Judicial Relief System (trial),\" which was followed by a marked expansion in the scale and increases in the number of judicial relief cases. In 2014 and 2015, the central government and local governments allocated a total of RMB2.47 billion and RMB2.95 billion for judicial relief funds, benefiting over 80,000 parties concerned in 2014. In 2013-2015 people's courts at all levels reduced or exempted a total of RMB625 million for litigation parties, ensuring the right to litigation of the poor.\nThe government strives to strengthen the effectiveness of legal aid, and ensures the right of impoverished people to judicial relief. In 1994, China began to form a legal aid system, providing free consultation, agency, criminal defense, and other legal services to people in need. In 2003, the State Council issued the Regulations on Legal Aid to define the scale of legal aid, delegating the power to the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government to supplement the issues to be covered by legal aid, and set the standards for receiving legal aid in light of the local conditions. Currently there are 23 provinces that have expanded the scope of issues covered by legal aid, and 19 provinces have adjusted the standards for receiving legal aid. The Criminal Procedural Law (revised in 2012) included suspects as recipients of legal aid, alongside defendants. Over the past five years, the number of legal aid cases has been growing by 11.4 percent annually, and women, children, the elderly, the disabled, and rural migrant workers have received timely and higher quality legal aid services. In May 2015, at its 12th meeting, the CPC Central Leading Group for Overall and Further Reforms reviewed and approved the \"Opinions on Improving the Legal Aid System,\" with measures to further enlarge the coverage of legal aid for civil and administrative lawsuits, reduce the thresholds for receiving legal aid, and gradually make legal aid available to low-income groups to benefit people in need.\nThe government strengthens judicial remedy to protect the right to development of disadvantaged groups. China has always attached importance to the judicial protection of the right to development and other basic human rights in criminal cases. The state punishes crimes targeted at women, children, the elderly, the disabled, and rural migrant workers, and strengthens the protection of special groups' rights to healthy physical and psychological development and their economic and social rights. The government strives to prevent or severely punish the abduction and trafficking of women and children, and such crimes have been effectively curbed. The state has issued the \"Opinions on Punishing Sex Crimes Against Minors\" and the \"Opinions on Handling the Infringements of Minors' Rights and Interests by Guardians,\" so as to enhance the judicial protection of minors' rights and interests. The state has promulgated the \"Opinions on Safeguarding the Legitimate Rights and Interests of Disabled Persons in Procuratorial Work,\" mandating severe punishment for crimes that infringe upon the rights and interests of disabled people in accordance with the law.\nThe government attaches importance to the role of arbitration, and protects the equal right to development of certain groups. By ending disputes through arbitration and punishing infringements according to law, China endeavors to strengthen procedure-based protection of the people's rights. By the end of 2015, 80 percent of township- and community-level employment and social security centers had set up organizations to mediate labor disputes, up by 14 percent from the 2014 figure. A total of 2,919 administrative divisions at or above county level (about 91 percent of the total) had arbitration offices for labor disputes, up by 208 percent compared with the figure of 946 at the end of the 11th Five-Year Plan period (2006-2010). In 2010-2015, China's mediation and arbitration organizations handled a total of 7.57 million cases, bringing 90 percent to a conclusion.\nChina always considers economic development as the central task, laying a solid foundation for safeguarding the right to development. At the same time economic development is strengthened by safeguarding the people's right to development. Since the reform and opening-up policy was launched in 1978, China has witnessed rapid economic growth, and has become the world's second largest economy. There have been two historic leaps in living standards, from living in poverty to having access to basic material needs, and then to moderate prosperity.\nThe right to subsistence of the poor is effectively guaranteed. The poverty reduction campaign in China is the most significant sign of China's progress in human rights. Since the end of 1978, China has realized \"the most rapid large-scale poverty reduction in human history over the last 25 years.\"[Note: \"Reducing Poverty on a Global Scale: Learning and Innovating for Development Findings from the Shanghai Global Learning Initiative,\" a World Bank document on Nov. 14, 2016.] According to the existing rural poverty standards, it has reduced the number of those living in poverty by more than 700 million, which is more than the total population of the United States, Russia, Japan and Germany, and cut the rate of poverty to 5.7 percent, becoming the first country to complete the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. By the end of 2015, the number of rural people living in poverty had fallen to 55.75 million. In the five autonomous regions of Inner Mongolia, Guangxi, Tibet, Ningxia and Xinjiang, and in the provinces of Guizhou, Yunnan, and Qinghai, where ethnic minorities are concentrated, the number of rural people living in poverty had fallen to 18.13 million. China's poverty reduction campaign has effectively contributed to granting its disadvantaged people the right to development, laying a solid foundation for the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects. In November 2015, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council issued the \"Decision on Winning the Tough Battle Against Poverty,\" making comprehensive arrangements for poverty eradication work in the following five years. In March 2016, the \"Outline of the 13th Five-Year Program for the National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China\" was published, in which the Chinese government made strategic plans for the full implementation of the overall goal of poverty eradication. In order to realize the ambitious goal of relieving the rural poor population of poverty by 2020, China is carrying out a basic strategy of targeted poverty alleviation and targeted poverty eradication.\nThe right to work is fully realized. Economic development creates more jobs. Urban and rural employment continued to increase from 761 million in 2010 to 775 million in 2015. Within these figures, urban employment increased from 347 million to 404 million, representing an average annual increase of more than 11 million. In 2015 urban employment increased by 13.12 million, and the registered urban unemployment rate by the end of the year was 4.05 percent, showing steady progress in this work. From 2008 to 2015, the central government assigned a total of RMB305.51 billion as subsidies to be used in employment. Since 2009, the Chinese government has implemented a policy of financial discount for small-sum guaranteed loans to women. By June 2016, a total of RMB279.4 billion in loans had been provided to 5.38 million women, supporting more than 10 million, including women classified as poor, to start their own businesses or find work. The number of women in employment has increased continuously and their positions have improved. In 2014, employed women accounted for 45 percent of the total workforce in China, and female professional and technical personnel accounted for 46.5 percent of the national total. The government strengthens skill training to promote more equitable sharing of job opportunities through capacity-building. By the end of 2015, the total number of skilled workers in the country had reached 167 million, of whom 45.01 million were highly skilled. The government actively promotes transfer of the rural labor force to employment in local or nearby places, ensuring that 65 percent can find employment within the local county economy. The government vigorously develops the service industry, creating jobs for rural migrant workers, and setting up farmers' markets and food stalls with reduced or zero fees. As a result, more than 80 percent of rural migrant workers have found jobs in small and micro businesses. The government also encourages rural migrant workers to return home and start businesses. By the end of 2015, 4.5 million rural migrant workers had returned home to start businesses, and rural small and micro businesses amounted to 6.99 million. By the end of 2014, China had 15.46 million private enterprises, and nearly 50 million self-employed businesses, representing increases of 83 percent and 44 percent over 2010; these businesses employed 250 million people. Internet entrepreneurship has helped nearly 10 million people find employment, and \"Internet+\" is an important channel for creating jobs. The government takes measures to guide graduates to find employment through multiple channels, encourage entrepreneurship, and offer better employment services to graduates and give more assistance to those experiencing difficulties in finding jobs. In recent years, the employment rate of new college graduates has been above 70 percent every year, and the overall employment rate at the end of the year has exceeded 90 percent. By aiding enterprises, and offering employment support and assistance, the government helps unemployed persons and people having difficulty in securing jobs to find employment, and devotes particular attention to zero-employment families. From 2011 to 2015, more than 5.5 million unemployed urban people found jobs every year, while an annual average of almost 1.8 million people having difficulty in securing jobs found employment. Steady progress has been made in the employment of people with disabilities. During the 12th Five-Year Program period (2011-2015), the government helped 1.52 million urban residents with disabilities to find jobs. In 2015, 21,596,300 disabled people of working age across the country found jobs.\nThe people's basic living standards have greatly improved. In 1978, the Engel coefficient of urban households was 57.5 percent and that of rural households was 67.7 percent; in 2015, the figures dropped to 29.7 percent and 33.0 percent respectively. From 1978 to 2015, urban residents saw an increase in their residential area from 6.7 square meters per capita to more than 33 square meters; the corresponding figures for rural residents were 8.1 square meters to more than 37 square meters. A housing security system with government-supported low-rent housing and economically affordable housing as the main forms is in place. In 2015, the national investment in residential buildings reached RMB8,024.77 billion. Within this program, 7.72 million units of government-subsidized urban housing were completed, and construction on another 7.83 million units already started. The central government provided RMB36.5 billion to subsidize the renovation of sub-standard houses for 4.32 million poor rural households around China. From 2011 to 2015, under the government-subsidized urban housing project, China built a total of 40.13 million new units, renovated 21.91 million households in shantytowns, and moved a large number of people with housing difficulties into apartments, realizing \"livable\" residences. From 2011 to 2015, public finance at all levels subsidized barrier-free reconstruction for 675,000 families with disabled members, improving their quality of life.\nTravel conditions have greatly improved. From 1978 to 2015, highways in service rose from 890,000 km to 4.58 million km, and the civil aviation passenger throughput grew from 2.32 million to 915 million. In 2015, the total mileage of expressways open to traffic in China reached 123,500 km, the operating mileage of high-speed railways reached 19,000 km. 94.5 percent of villages had paved road access, and 94.3 percent of villages had access to bus services.\nThe people's living standards have significantly improved. From 1978 to 2015, the annual GDP increased from RMB367.9 billion to RMB68,550.6 billion, and per capita GDP grew from more than US$200 to above US$8,000. In 1978, per capita disposable income of urban households was only RMB343.4, and per capita net income of rural households was only RMB133.6. In 2015, per capita disposable income of all residents reached RMB21,966; the figures were RMB31,195 for urban residents and RMB11,422 for rural residents. By the end of 2015, the total number of phone users nationwide reached 1,536.73 million, and 1,305.74 million of them were mobile phone users, with a penetration rate of 95.5 per 100 people. There were 213.37 million households with fixed broadband Internet access, and 785.33 million mobile broadband users. The number of Internet users was 688 million, and the household penetration rate of fixed broadband reached 50.3 percent. In 2015, Chinese residents made 127.86 million outbound trips, including 121.72 million private trips. Civilian car ownership was 95.08 million, of which 87.93 million were private cars.\nChina continues to enrich and improve a political system suited to its own development by advancing Chinese socialist democracy and rule of law in an all-round way, ensuring effective protection of civil and political rights, and raising the levels of participation in and promotion of the political development process and allowing people to partake in the benefits of political development.\nThe people's congress system is the fundamental institutional guarantee of political development for the people. According to the Constitution, all power in the PRC belongs to the people, and the National People's Congress (NPC) and the local people's congresses at various levels are the organs through which the people exercise state power. The people's congress system guarantees citizens' rights to participate in development and share the resulting benefits in five ways:\n(1) Generating and supervising state organs involved in the implementation of the right to development. Paragraph 3 of Article 3 of the Constitution states that all administrative, judicial and procuratorial organs of the state are created by the people's congresses to which they are responsible and under whose supervision they operate.\n(2) Formulating laws and regulations to foster development. By September 2016, the NPC and its Standing Committee had formulated the Constitution and 252 laws in effect. By July 2016, local people's congresses and their standing committees with legislative power had formulated 9,915 local regulations in effect.\n(3) Examining and approving development policy initiatives. Article 62 of the Constitution stipulates that the NPC exercises the functions and powers to examine and approve the plan for national economic and social development and the report on its implementation, and to examine and approve the state budget and the report on its implementation, among others.\n(4) Providing an open mechanism for the expression of public opinion. People express and claim their reasonable development interests by means such as the exercise of their rights to raise opinions, suggestions and criticism, to file appeals and complaints, and to supervise.\n(5) Properly defining the relationship between public power and development interests.\nIn recent years China has introduced three major systems that are of relevance - the power list, negative list, and responsibility list. Since 2013 the State Council has published lists enumerating all matters subject to administrative approval by its departments, and prohibited the addition of any unlisted matters, with 618 matters canceled or delegated to lower authorities. In this way, the State Council endeavors to eliminate opportunities for exploiting public posts for profit, and to enhance the procedures for the exercise of power.\nDemocratic election is an important element of citizens' political rights. Since the policy of reform and opening up was introduced in 1978, great progress has been made toward establishing people's democracy and an equal right to vote. In 2010, the NPC adopted an amendment to the Electoral Law providing wider equality of voting rights. Among other measures it requires that deputies be elected to the people's congresses based on the same population ratio in urban and rural areas.\nBetween 2011 and 2012, the election of deputies to county-level people's congresses saw more than 981 million registered voters and a turnout rate of 90.24 percent; the election of deputies to township-level people's congresses recorded more than 723 million registered voters and a turnout rate of 90.55 percent. In these elections, measures were taken based on the conditions in each constituency to ensure the right to vote of the 200 million floating population, and to facilitate their voting. The basic principle was that voters cast their votes in the constituencies where their registered permanent residences are, while they may vote by proxy with a letter of entrustment, and voters who have their voter qualification certificates in the constituencies where their registered permanent residences are may vote in the constituencies where they currently live.\nThe 2,987 deputies elected in 2013 to the Third Session of the 12th NPC included 401 workers and farmers accounting for 13.42 percent, 699 women accounting for 23.4 percent, and 409 deputies from all the 55 ethnic minority groups of China accounting for 13.69 percent.\nConsultative democracy is an important channel for orderly participation in the political process. An extensive, multi-layered, institutionalized system of consultative democracy inclusive of multiple parties, people's congresses, governments, people's organizations, the grassroots, and non-governmental organizations has been created to expand orderly participation in the political process and ensure the citizen's right to development.\nThe Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) is an essential organ for implementing consultative democracy, involving the participation of nine political parties including the CPC, eight people's organizations, 56 ethnic groups, five major religions and 34 sectors of society. The CPPCC has more than 3,000 committees and over 600,000 members at all levels. In 2015, the CPPCC organized 41 major consultation events, and 107 inspection and survey tours, forming a political consultation framework employing a range of options such as plenary sessions, standing committees' thematic discussions on administrative affairs and thematic consultative seminars, and biweekly consultative seminars.\nIn the Third Session of the 12th CPPCC convened in 2015, 87.5 percent or 1,948 of the CPPCC members submitted 5,857 proposals, of which 85.1 percent or 4,984 were taken up for consideration. Since the First Session of the 12th CPPCC held in 2013, the rates of proposal handling and response have reached 99.5 percent or above.\nRegional ethnic autonomy is an important channel for ethnic minorities to exercise their political rights. China has created the system of regional ethnic autonomy under the unitary system of government to effectively protect the democratic rights of ethnic minorities. Of the 55 ethnic minority groups in China, 44 have established ethnic autonomous areas. 71 percent of the ethnic minorities exercise regional autonomy, and the land area under ethnic autonomous areas accounts for 64 percent of the national territory. By the end of July 2016 ethnic autonomous areas had formulated and amended 967 autonomous regulations and separate regulations in effect, solidifying the legal foundation for ethnic minorities' exercise of their right to development.\nHeads of governments of the five autonomous regions, 30 autonomous prefectures and 120 autonomous counties are citizens from ethnic groups exercising regional autonomy. Leaderships and functional departments of CPC committees, people's congresses, governments, CPPCC committees at all levels in ethnic autonomous areas contain ethnic minorities, whose proportions are generally close to or higher than the percentages of ethnic minorities in the local population. By the end of 2015 ethnic minority civil servants numbered 765,000 - nearly four times the figure in 1978 - and 10.7 percent of the total number of civil servants across the country. 8.3 percent of civil servants at or above county level were ethnic minorities.\nGrassroots democracy is an effective way for people to safeguard and realize equal right to development. China has established a system of grassroots self-governance implemented by rural villagers' committees and urban neighborhood committees. Approximately 98 percent of the 581,000 villagers' committees across the country practice direct election and have formulated village regulations and rules for villagers' self-governance. The turnout rates of direct elections average 95 percent among 600 million eligible voters. The 100,000 urban neighborhood committees in China utilize the services of 512,000 staff and 5.4 million volunteers. Urban residents' participation in democracy has been remarkably broadened and their self-governance capabilities and levels have been improved, through multiple channels, including direct elections, gridded management platforms, volunteer services, hearings, coordination meetings, appraisal meetings, community liaison, communities' online forums, and community public concern stations, all contributing to China's system of grassroots self-governance. The workers' congress system has been widely applied in enterprises and public institutions. 4.64 million or 88.6 percent of enterprises and public institutions with trade unions have established separate systems for publicizing enterprise affairs. There are 2.75 million grassroots trade unions across the country, with 280 million members, including 109 million migrant workers from rural areas.\nBy June 2016, non-governmental organizations that had registered at offices of civil affairs numbered 670,000, including 329,000 mass organizations, 5,028 foundations, and 336,000 private non-profit units. These non-governmental organizations' services and influence extend to education, science and technology, culture, health, sports, communities, environmental protection, public welfare, charity, rural economy and other fields of public life.\nPublic participation provides citizens with ready access to decision-making processes. China has furthered democratic legislation and improved the channels and forms of public participation in legislation. Efforts have also been made to establish a system of commissioning third parties to draft legislation and evaluate the drafts, and improve the mechanisms for soliciting public opinion on drafts of laws and regulations and giving feedback on responses. Some local authorities have adopted regulations on administrative decision-making procedures for major issues, which list public participation as an important legal procedure and define the forms and methods of public participation in administrative decision-making. Open solicitation of public opinion, hearings, seminars and questionnaires are widely applied for this purpose.\nIn 2007 the State Council enacted Regulations on Open Government Information, emphasizing open information concerning administrative approval, financial budgets and final accounts, government-subsidized housing for the poor, food and drug safety, land appropriation, and household demolition and resettlement. The Regulations provide for prompt and accurate disclosure of government information to the public and protection of their right to know, and ensure effective scrutiny over government work while enhancing transparency in government information and efficiency in law-enforcement.\nChannels of public participation in judicial processes have been steadily broadened. The number of people's assessors has now surpassed 220,000. From 2003 when China piloted the people's supervisor mechanism to April 2016, there were more than 48,000 people's supervisors, who had exercised supervision over 49,000 cases of job-related crimes. By the end of 2015, there had been nearly 800,000 people's mediation committees with more than 3.9 million people's mediators, who had, in recent eight years, investigated and resolved more than 67 million cases of disputes.\nPublic complaint filing has taken on more diversified forms, further broadening the channels for public political participation. The national complaint filing system has opened to the public for online complaint filing, resolution, and result appraisal through computers, mobile phones and the social-media app WeChat's public accounts platform. A total of 1.41 million cases were filed online in 2015, of which 140,000 were aimed at offering suggestions.\nThe Chinese government endeavors to restructure China's cultural system, free and develop cultural productivity, so as to create equal opportunity for all citizens to enjoy benefits of cultural development and to have access to cultural development opportunities, and ensure realization of their right to cultural development.\nThe building of a public cultural service system has been accelerated. In 2015, the Chinese government issued \"Opinions on Accelerating the Building of a Modernized Public Cultural Service System\" and \"Guidance for National Basic Public Cultural Services (2015-2020),\" presenting an all-round plan for accelerating the building of a modernized public cultural service system, promoting standard basic public cultural services and equal access, and protecting the people's basic cultural rights and interests. China has accelerated public digital cultural programs, such as the National Public Culture Digital Platform, and the National Digital Culture Network (http://www.ndcnc.gov.cn/). By the end of 2015, the National Cultural Information Resources Sharing Project had completed 1 national center, 33 provincial centers, 2,843 municipal and county centers, 35,719 township and town (sub-district) stations, and 700,000 village (community) stations. China has improved the public cultural infrastructure network and increased the capacity of community-level cultural services. By the end of 2015, China had 2,037 art performance troupes, 3,139 public libraries, 3,315 cultural centers, 2,981 museums, 40 provincial digital libraries, and 479 municipal and prefectural digital libraries. Continuous efforts were made to open public cultural facilities to the public for free, including public art museums at all levels, and basic public cultural services in libraries and cultural centers (stations) at all levels. By promoting projects such as Radio and TV Programs for Each Village and Each Rural Household, Town and Township Comprehensive Cultural Centers, Rural Cinema, Rural Libraries, and Rural Digital Culture, China has greatly enhanced rural cultural service capacity.\nLiterature, arts, news, publishing, radio, film, television and sports are thriving. In 2015, China published more than 43 billion copies of newspapers, 2.9 billion copies of periodicals, and 8.7 billion copies of books. The number of books published per capita reached 6.32. A total of 236 million households subscribed to cable TV, including 198 million subscribers to digital cable TV. At the end of the year, the radio coverage rate was 98.2 percent of the total population, and TV coverage was 98.8 percent of the total population. In 2015, China produced 395 TV serials totaling 16,560 episodes, 134,000 minutes of TV animation, 686 feature films, and 202 popular science films, documentaries, animation and special films. China has adopted value-added tax exemption for revenues from rural cinemas. It has also given support to small and micro cultural businesses, and implemented policies offering construction subsidies, financial support and differentiated land designation for county cinemas in central and western regions. China has launched an \"All People Reading\" campaign nationwide. The 2016 \"Literary China\" series of activities has benefitted over 800 million participants, forming a congenial social atmosphere for reading. China has accelerated the development of the sports industry under a policy that has the combined support of government, society and enterprises. China has launched a nationwide fitness campaign, basically established a corresponding organizational network, and greatly increased the number of sports venues and facilities. In 2015 China allocated RMB870 million in subsidies to support large sports venues and facilities to open to the public for free or at low cost. In 2014 the sales of the National Sports Lottery reached RMB174.6 billion, and the funds raised for the public totaled RMB45.5 billion.\nCultural programs in ethnic minority areas are developing. China has vigorously supported cultural development in ethnic minority areas. Through such programs as the Frontier Cultural Corridor Project and National Cultural Information Resources Sharing Project, China has improved the public cultural service system in ethnic minority areas. By the end of 2015, nine natural and cultural sites scattered in China's ethnic minority areas, including the Potala Palace in Tibet, were added to UNESCO's World Heritage List. Fourteen ethnic minority arts including Uygur Muqam of Xinjiang were added to UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and another four, including the Qiang ethnic group's New Year Festival, were added to the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding. Ten experimental zones for cultural protection in ethnic minority areas have been established. A total of 479 ethnic minority heritage items have been included in the four lists of national representative intangible cultural heritage, and 524 trustees from ethnic minority groups have been put on the four lists of national representative trustees of intangible cultural heritage. The book series of explanatory notes on ancient books of ethnic minority groups, titled Synopsis of the General Catalogue of Ancient Books of Ethnic Minority Groups of China, was published in 2014. China has promoted the regulation, standardization and computerized processing of languages and scripts of ethnic minority groups. Projects have been initiated for the research and formulation of regulations on the transliteration of personal names into standard Chinese from Mongolian, Tibetan, Uygur, Kazakh, Yi and other ethnic minority languages. China has set up databanks for ethnic minority languages on the brink of extinction, and initiated and implemented the Project for the Protection of Chinese Language Resources. By the end of 2015 a total of 54 ethnic minority groups were using more than 80 spoken languages of their own ethnic groups, and 21 ethnic minority groups were using 28 scripts of their own ethnic groups. Now nearly 200 radio stations nationwide broadcast in 25 ethnic minority languages; 32 publishing houses of various types publish books in ethnic minority languages; 11 film dubbing centers, using 17 ethnic minority languages and 37 ethnic minority dialects, finished the dubbing of movies, amounting to over 3,000 versions from 2012 to 2015. In 2015, China produced many publications in ethnic minority languages, including 69.12 million copies of 9,192 book titles, 196.09 million copies of newspapers and 12.45 million copies of periodicals.\nCultural development for the elderly, the disabled and rural migrant workers has received high attention. Relying on public libraries, cultural centers and other cultural facilities, China has opened a group of demonstration universities for the elderly to meet their multi-level cultural demands. China has also improved the environment for the disabled, encouraging them to participate in cultural and sports activities. By the end of 2015, China had more than 300,000 liaison stations for volunteers helping the disabled, with 8.5 million registered volunteers, providing 100 million interventions on behalf of the disabled. China has issued the \"Outline for the National IT Application Development Strategy,\" enhanced information accessibility of government websites, and encouraged non-governmental organizations to provide individualized information services to the disabled. The official website of the State Council (http://www.gov.cn/) has opened a special column for services for the disabled. The China Braille Library and China Digital Library for the visually impaired went online. By the end of 2014, China had set up 1,515 reading rooms for the visually impaired in public libraries at all levels nationwide. By the end of 2015, China had set up 65,918 public e-libraries, mainly to serve the elderly and rural migrant workers.\nChina pursues shared development and common prosperity for all people as its development goals.\nOver the years, China has been committed to developing various social undertakings, establishing and improving various types of social security and social service systems, and continuously improving the provision of social security. It has striven to provide effective social resources and promote equal access to education so that all share the fruits of development.\nProtection of the right to health has significantly increased. The infant mortality rate has dropped from 20 percent in 1949, when the PRC was founded, to 0.81 percent in 2015, and the maternal mortality rate has dropped from 1,500 per 100,000 to 20.1 per 100,000. From 1978 to 2015, total national expenditure on health increased from RMB11.02 billion to RMB4.10 trillion, of which government expenditure on health increased from RMB3.54 billion to RMB1.25 trillion. Per capita health expenditure increased from RMB11.5 to RMB2,980.8, the number of medical and health institutions grew from 169,732 to 983,528, and the total number of health workers increased from 7,883,000 to 10,693,900. In 2015, the number of community medical and health service centers reached 361,000, with the coverage of 52.9 percent. The number of beds in social service institutions with accommodation increased from 828,000 in 1991 to 7,329,000 in 2015, of which beds for the elderly increased from 783,000 to 6,727,000, and those for children increased from 7,000 to 100,000. From 1988 to 2015 the government carried out a key state rehabilitation campaign, offering rehabilitation services for 27.98 million people with disabilities. By the end of 2015 there were 7,111 rehabilitation institutions for disabled persons, which employed 192,000 professionals, and 6,352 nursing agencies offering services to persons with learning, mental and physical disabilities, 2,323 more than the figure in 2010. In October 2016 China published the \"Outline of Healthy China 2030\" program, advocating that all people make fitness activities part of their life.\nA security system covering the whole of society has taken shape. China has established a unified basic old-age insurance system for urban and rural residents throughout the country, and formulated policies to allow workers, and especially rural migrant workers, to participate in basic pension insurance for urban workers and for urban and rural residents. In 2015, 858 million people were covered by the basic pension insurance scheme, and 148 million urban and rural residents were receiving pensions. By the end of 2015 China had established a medical insurance system covering all citizens. The basic medical insurance for urban workers, basic medical insurance for urban residents, and the new rural cooperative medical insurance cover a total of 1,336 million people, keeping the insured rate above 95 percent. The reimbursement rate of hospitalization expenses for workers within the scope of the basic medical insurance exceeded 80 percent, with an increased maximum payment of six times the average annual salary of local workers, and the rate for urban residents within the coverage of the basic medical insurance was around 70 percent, an increase to six times the per capita disposable income of local residents. The reimbursement rates of hospitalization expenses for rural residents within the scope of the new rural cooperative insurance was above 75 percent. From 1994 to 2015, the number of people covered by unemployment insurance increased from 79.68 million to 176.09 million. In 2015, the revenues of the unemployment insurance fund reached RMB136.46 billion, and the expenditure was RMB73.65 billion, and the average monthly payment to the unemployed was increased to RMB968.4. The framework of a work-related injury insurance system involving work injury prevention, compensation, and rehabilitation has been established, which has seen the number of insured growing from 18.22 million in 1994 to 214.32 million in 2015. The number of women covered by the maternity insurance program increased from 9.16 million to 177.71 million.\nSocial assistance efforts continue to increase. In 1997, the Chinese government began to establish a nationwide system of basic living allowances. It promulgated the Regulations on Guaranteeing Basic Living Allowances for Urban Residents in 1999 and the Interim Measures for Social Assistance in 2014, to ensure all citizens have equal access to social assistance. From 1996 to 2015, the number of urban residents covered by the system of basic living allowances increased from 849,000 to 17.01 million, and, from 1999 to 2015, coverage of rural residents grew from 2.66 million to 49.04 million. The government continues to raise the basic living allowances. In 2011, it formally established a dynamic adjustment mechanism for basic living allowances. In 2015, the average basic living allowance line for urban residents was RMB451 per person per month, and the average monthly subsidy each person received from the government was RMB317. The average basic living allowance line for rural residents was RMB265 per person per month, and the average per capita monthly subsidy provided by the government was RMB147.\nChina has formulated a series of disaster prevention and relief plans and regulations, gradually strengthening and standardizing disaster relief work. From 2009 to 2015, the central government allocated RMB69.46 billion as natural disaster relief funds, averagely RMB9.9 billion for each year. In 2015, China provided medical assistance to 95.24 million people at a cost of RMB29.85 billion. The government also provides temporary relief to people who suffer sudden, urgent or temporary difficulties when other social assistance systems cannot cover them at the time, or people who still lack basic necessities after receiving assistance. In 2015, 6.67 million households received temporary relief. The industrial safety and emergency rescue system has been continuously improved. Altogether 32 provincial and 316 municipal emergency rescue centers, and 964 emergency rescue bases and teams have been established nationwide, covering coal, non-coal mines, chemicals, and other key industries. In 2015, they took part in 12,438 missions and rescued 44,344 people.\nEqual access to education has improved. The gap between urban and rural education has been further narrowed. The Chinese government further promotes the balanced development of compulsory education, carries forward unified reform and development of compulsory education in urban and rural areas of counties, implements such projects as renovation of unsatisfactory compulsory education schools in poor areas, and works to improve conditions for compulsory education schools and teaching venues in rural areas.\nThe Chinese government strictly follows laws and regulations about compulsory education whereby school-age children should be enrolled in nearby schools without the need to sit exams. It also promotes the school district system and the nine-year compulsory system, under which an elementary school pupil will automatically move on to study in the junior high school in the same school district irrespective of his grades in the elementary school. In 2015, the State Council promulgated the \"Notice on Further Improving the Mechanism Guaranteeing Funds for Compulsory Education in Urban and Rural Areas.\" With this notice, China established a mechanism for the first time that applies common funding standards to both urban and rural areas, with the focus on the latter. The mechanism benefits 140 million students, including more than 13 million children of rural migrant workers, more than 30 million boarding students, about 12 million private school students, and about 5 million small-scale school students and students receiving special education. From the fall semester of 2011, the government started to carry out a nutrition improvement program for rural students receiving compulsory education. The program benefits over 30 million students every year. Efforts have been made to increase the number of rural student enrollments in key universities. Since 2012, the government has implemented special national programs on targeted enrollment in rural and poor areas. In 2015, 75,000 students were enrolled, an increase of 10.5 percent over 2014.\nRegional gap in education has further narrowed. The government has increased the college and university enrollment rate of the students from central and western provinces and expanded the scope of the Collaboration Program on Supporting Enrollment in Central and Western Regions. In 2015, the province with the lowest enrollment rate saw the gap with the national average narrowed from 15.3 percentage points in 2010 to less than 5 percentage points. The government has also established the Program on Rejuvenating Higher Education in Central and Western Regions. The central government has provided more funds to strengthen the basic facilities and performance of colleges and universities in these regions.\nEducational gap between different groups has further narrowed. Female education has made remarkable progress. In 2013, the number of illiterate females aged 15 and above was 6.7 percent, 17.4 percentage points lower than that in 1995, and the illiterate female population had decreased by more than 70 million compared with 1995. The growth in the number of educated women and the decline in female illiteracy are both greater than those of males.\nThe government is striving to ensure equal access to compulsory education for children of rural migrant workers. In 2015, compulsory education schools in urban areas of China admitted a total of 13.67 million children of rural migrant workers, with around 80 percent studying at public schools and nearly 6 percent at private schools through a government-funded scheme. In 2016, the State Council promulgated the \"Opinions on Strengthening Care and Protection of Left-behind Children in Rural Areas\" and \"Opinions on Strengthening Protection of Children in Difficult Situation\" to safeguard the lawful rights and interests of minors. The Chinese government also works hard to offer greater education opportunities to persons with disabilities. There is one independent special education school in every county with a population of more than 300,000 people and a high population of disabled children. The government also supports the establishment of special education resource centers, encourages regular schools to enroll children with special needs, provides convenience for disabled students to take part in college entrance examinations, and promotes integrated education. Almost 90 percent of blind, deaf-mute, and mentally handicapped children have access to compulsory education. It works to improve the system for subsidizing students with financial difficulties, which offers full coverage from pre-school education to graduate education. In 2015, the government subsidized more than 84.33 million students throughout China, an increase of 29.36 percent compared with 2009, and spent more than RMB156.03 billion, 2.25 times the level of 2009.\nThe quality of education for ethnic minorities has been continuously improved. China has already created an ethnic education system including ethnic minority primary schools, middle schools, vocational colleges and higher education institutions. Before the PRC was founded in 1949, the illiteracy rate of ethnic minorities in China was above 95 percent, and there was only one higher education institution for ethnic minorities. In the early days of the PRC, there were only 1,300 ethnic minority students in institutions of higher learning across the country, accounting for only 1.4 percent of all students. By 2015 the education level of ethnic minority groups and ethnic minority areas had grown comprehensively. There were 25,955,700 ethnic minority students at that time. There were 32 different types of ethnic minority colleges and universities, and 2,142,900 junior college and college students from ethnic minority groups, accounting for 8.16 percent of the national total. Ethnic minority peoples have expanding access to a broader scope of higher education. Full coverage from undergraduate education to graduate education has been realized for all ethnic minority groups. All of China's 55 ethnic minority groups have graduate students. From 2012 to 2015, under the Program for Training High Caliber Core Personnel for Ethnic Minority Groups, China enrolled and trained 16,000 master's degree candidates and 4,000 doctoral candidates.\nChina is committed to the concept of environment-friendly development and strives to expedite the country's ecological progress to deliver a more livable and beautiful environment for the people. It aims to make a good eco-environment a focal point for improving people's living standards, and create sustainable development that benefits all the people.\nThe basic state policy of environmental protection underpins environment-friendly development. In 1973 China convened its first national work conference on environmental protection, and adopted its first Law on Environmental Protection in 1979. In 1983 China made environmental protection a basic state policy. China became the first country in the world to formulate and implement a national sustainable development strategy when it released China's Agenda 21 in 1994. The year 2000 first saw protection of the eco-environment being incorporated into the national economic and social development program. Since 2013 China has been accelerating ecological progress in an all-round way; the CPC Central Committee and the State Council jointly issued \"Opinions on Accelerating Ecological Progress\" in 2015. A legal system pivoting on energy conservation and environmental protection has been formed, comprising 32 laws, 48 administrative regulations, and 85 departmental rules of the State Council. Currently, there are 14,257 government agencies involved in environmental protection at all levels.\nBy the end of 2015 national forestry coverage had reached 208 million ha, representing about 22 percent of China's total land area; the vegetation coverage rate of grasslands had reached 54 percent, and the greenery coverage rate of urban built-up areas was 40.1 percent. Nature reserves have been developing in a unified way. Today China has 2,740 nature reserves, covering a total area of 147.03 million ha.\nEnvironmental governance enhances environment-friendly development. A national integrated decision-making mechanism and regional coordination mechanisms have been established for the protection of the eco-environment, forming an environmental governance system jointly implemented by the government, enterprises and the public. Research and development in the technology for environmental protection is improving, and there has been continuous reinforcement of environmental monitoring efforts and pollution control capability.\nAir pollution control is making steady progress. The proportion of coal consumption in total energy provision is decreasing year by year, while the contribution of hydropower, wind power, nuclear power, natural gas and other types of clean energy is increasing. Since the beginning of the 11th Five-Year Program (2006-2010), China's energy consumption per RMB10,000 GDP has decreased by 34 percent, saving 1.57 billion tons of coal equivalent, more than half of the energy saved by the whole world in this period. In 2015 the urban wastewater treatment rate reached 91.9 percent, and the pollution-free disposal rate of urban domestic solid waste was 94.1 percent. Urban park green space per capita reached 13.35 square meters.\nEcological economics fosters environment-friendly development. China has completed a system of working centers for agricultural environmental protection, consisting of two at national level, 33 at provincial level, more than 300 at prefectural level, and more than 1,700 at county level. In the drainage basins of Taihu Lake, Chaohu Lake, Erhai Lake, the Three Gorges reservoir region, and other major drainage basins requiring pollution prevention and control, model areas of diffuse agricultural pollution prevention and control have been established, and 106 national model areas of eco-friendly prevention and control of plant diseases and pests have been set up, covering more than 33 million ha of farmland. More than 100 counties in two batches have been built into national models of ecological farming, prompting the development of over 500 provincial-level model counties. More than 2,000 model sites of ecological farming have been completed.\nThe agricultural hi-tech industry places its emphasis on long-term development. Field water application efficiency in agricultural irrigation has been raised to 0.536. Investments in technological upgrading have been reinforced, and efforts have been made to promote the new industrial development. Between January and September 2016, investments in industrial technological upgrading amounted to RMB6.6 trillion, an increase of 13.4 percent over the same period of 2015 and accounting for 40 percent of all industrial investments. The tertiary sector has been encouraged and supported to develop faster and generate more green GDP. The expanding Internet economy recorded a turnover of RMB3.88 trillion in the online retail industry in 2015, an increase of 33.3 percent over 2014.\nPolicy support bolsters environment-friendly development. The state has made active efforts to protect the sustainable development of ecologically fragile areas through integrated planning, targeted treatment, and the ecological compensation mechanism, creating a virtuous cycle for regional eco-environments. Ecological areas of medium fragility make up 55 percent of China's land area, with two thirds concentrated in the western regions. In 2005 the State Council prescribed restrictive development in ecologically fragile areas. The \"Outline for the Conservation of Ecologically Fragile Areas in China (2009-2020)\" was promulgated in 2008. By 2015 environmental impact assessment had been implemented in all ecologically fragile areas, a 30 percent increase of targeted areas had been brought under the strategy, and models of the ecological industry have been promoted in ecologically fragile areas.\nCommitments to international conventions propel environmentally-friendly development. China was among the first countries to formulate and implement a national climate change plan, and pledged to achieve its 2020 goals laid out in the \"National Plan on Climate Change (2014-2020)\" and 2030 goals set out in the \"Enhanced Actions on Climate Change: China's Intended Nationally Determined Contributions\" released in 2015. Over the years, China has taken effective policy actions to honor its commitments. Moving along the path toward low-carbon development, China enacted the \"National Plan for Reducing Ozone-depleting Substances\" and achieved ahead of schedule its first-stage hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) phase-out goal as part of its commitment to the \"Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.\" China's reduction of ozone-depleting substances accounts for approximately half of the total reduction by developing countries. China has eliminated the production, use, and import and export of 17 of the 26 types of persistent organic pollutants listed in the \"Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants,\" and reduced the dioxin emissions of three industries that are major emitters of dioxins by more than 15 percent. Furthermore, the state has established the National Committee for Biodiversity Conservation, enacted the \"China Biodiversity Conservation Strategy and Action Plan (2011-2030)\" and signed the Minamata Convention on Mercury. China is an active and constructive participant in international talks on climate change, and makes robust efforts to bolster the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. China has made significant efforts in moving the Paris Agreement on greenhouse gas emissions mitigation toward adoption and taking effect, making it one of the fastest major international agreements ever to enter into force and further contributing to the world's sustainable development.\nChina upholds the principles of mutual respect, equality of treatment, win-win cooperation, and common development, and promotes the interests of its own people and the common interests of other peoples. China supports the developing countries, especially the least developed countries (LDCs), in reducing poverty, improving people's wellbeing and the development environment, in order to build a human community of shared future.\nDefending the right to development. As an original member state of the United Nations, China participated in drafting the Charter of the United Nations and signed it, facilitated the publication of the \"Universal Declaration of Human Rights,\" upheld the principles prescribed in the \"International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights\" and the \"International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights,\" and facilitated the passing of the resolution on the new concepts of human rights and the resolution on the right to development. China participated in all the previous meetings of the Group of Governmental Experts of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights (UNCHR) for drafting the \"Declaration on the Right to Development,\" and made an important contribution to the formal adoption of the Declaration in 1986. China has always been a co-sponsor of UNCHR resolutions on the right to development, supporting the UNCHR's global debate on realizing the right to development, and consenting to the deliberation of the right to development by the UNCHR as a separate issue. Since the UNHRC was established in 2006, China has been elected as a member four times, and has contributed its wisdom and strength to making the right to development a mainstream issue.\nParticipating in the formulation of the development agenda. China was the first to voice support for the sustainable development strategy. It has supported and implemented the \"United Nations Millennium Declaration,\" and achieved 13 of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. While effectively improving the protection of its own people's right to development, China has also promoted the common development of the world. It has helped the international community to pass and implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and issued \"China's Position Paper on the Implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\" and \"China's National Plan on Implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.\" At the G20 Hangzhou Summit, China joined other countries in formulating the \"G20 Action Plan on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\" and the \"G20 Initiative on Supporting Industrialization in Africa and Least Developed Countries,\" adding impetus to the overall development of all countries and developing countries in particular. In September 2015 China and UN Women co-organized the Global Summit of Women, and implemented the goals related to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.\nExpanding the path to development. Over the years, based on the principle that all countries are entitled to choose their own social systems and development paths, China has expanded its development mindset and philosophy, and joined other countries in seeking equitable, open, all-round and innovation-driven development. China strives for equitable development for all countries and for developing countries in particular, so that all countries can become participants in and contributors to global development and equitably share the interests of development. China calls on all countries, which share the same development goals yet are at different development levels, to take on common but differentiated responsibilities. China has advocated the developing countries' right to a greater voice in formulating the rules of the global governance system. China keeps the open-door policy while pursuing development. It joins other countries in upholding the multilateral trade regime and promotes the free flow of production factors around the world so that the achievements of development will benefit all parties and people in all countries. China pursues all-round development, to achieve balanced development between economy, society and environment, and to realize harmony between humanity and society, and between humanity and nature. China promotes innovation-driven development, addresses problems arising in development by means of development, and fosters new core competitiveness. China places great value on the leadership of the United Nations, encourages regional economic integration, and improves its competitive development by integrating the strengths and advantages of various parties, so as to fully release its development potential.\nFurthering cooperation for development. China adheres to the principle of maintaining integrity and pursuing interests while giving priority to integrity, strives to improve the development capacity of all countries and the international development environment, partnership and coordination mechanisms for international development cooperation to realize the rights of all people to development. China propels inclusive and mutually-beneficial development, while participating in global economic governance. Regarding North-South economic cooperation as the main focus, China continues to expand South-South, tripartite, regional economic cooperation, and cooperation with emerging economies and, at the same time, explore more effective means of win-win cooperation. To realize common development the Chinese government endeavors to involve more countries and regions in the Belt and Road Initiative, relying on existing bilateral and multilateral mechanisms such as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, ASEAN Plus China (10+1) Summit, ASEAN Plus China, Japan and the ROK (10+3) Summit, East Asia Summit, China-Japan-ROK Cooperation, APEC, Asia-Europe Meeting, Asia Cooperation Dialogue, Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia, China-Arab States Cooperation Forum, China-Gulf Cooperation Council Strategic Dialogue, Greater Mekong Subregion Economic Cooperation Program, and Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation. China has established the Silk Road Fund, initiated the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and set up the Lancang-Mekong River cooperation mechanism, in order to provide financing support for the Belt and Road countries to coordinate programs on infrastructure, resource development, and industrial and financial cooperation.\nIncreasing development aid. Over the past 60 years China has provided approximately RMB400 billion in aid to 166 countries and international organizations. It has trained more than 12 million personnel from developing countries, and dispatched over 600,000 people to aid development in other countries. Seven hundred people have given their lives in the course of these programs. Since 2008, China has been the largest export market of the LDCs, and absorbed about 23 percent of their exports. To improve economic growth and standards of living in the developing countries, China will set up a South-South Cooperation Fund, increase its investment in the LDCs, write off certain countries' debts, establish an International Development Knowledge Center and further the Belt and Road Initiative. In the coming five years China will implement six \"One Hundred Programs\" targeting developing countries - 100 poverty reduction programs, 100 agricultural cooperation programs, 100 trade aid programs, 100 eco-protection and climate change programs, 100 hospitals and clinics, and 100 schools and vocational training centers. One hundred and twenty thousand training opportunities and 150,000 scholarships will be made available to developing countries in China, and 500,000 vocational technical personnel will be trained. China will set up a South-South Cooperation and Development Academy, and give the World Health Organization US$2 million in cash aid.\nProviding special treatment. China, as a developing country, is an advocate for a number of trade rights based on the principle of \"Special and differential treatment,\" but not be obliged to provide the same treatment. However, in recent years, China has begun to provide \"Special and differential treatment\" to other developing countries, focusing on protecting the right to development of the LDCs. In 2002, China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) signed the Framework Agreement on China-ASEAN Comprehensive Economic Cooperation, offering special and differential treatment with flexibility to new ASEAN member states such as Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar and Viet Nam. In 2006, China joined the Amendment to the First Agreement on Trade Negotiations Among Developing Member Countries of the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific. China's General Administration of Customs has issued three documents which have extended the range of countries enjoying its special preferential tariff from African countries to 40 LDCs recognized by the United Nations.\nImproving the development environment. China joins other countries in safeguarding international peace, opposes all forms of terrorism, and supports international and regional cooperation in fighting terrorism, in order to create an environment of peace and harmony that promotes development and thereby consolidates peace. In recent years, China has offered solutions to regional flashpoints: involving itself in the Iran nuclear talks; mediating for national reconciliation in South Sudan; proposing a four-step framework for political settlement of the Syrian issue; facilitating the peace talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban; promoting consensus on resuming the six-party talks on the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula. To date, China has sent 33,000 military, police and civilian personnel to join UN peacekeeping missions. Currently there are 2,600-plus Chinese peacekeeping personnel involved in 10 UN peacekeeping operations, making China the most active permanent member of the UN Security Council in terms of supplying peacekeeping personnel. In order to support and improve peacekeeping operations, China will join the new UN peacekeeping standby mechanism, take the lead in establishing regular peacekeeping police force units, and organize peacekeeping standby forces. In the coming five years China will train 2,000 peacekeeping personnel for other countries, launch 10 demining aid programs, provide US$100 million of non-reimbursable military aid to the African Union, and allocate part of the China-UN Peace and Development Fund to support UN peacekeeping operations.\nIn the pursuit of development and their right to development, the Chinese people have made strenuous efforts and significant achievements. To promote common development and to build a community with shared future, China has made unremitting efforts and played an important role. It will always be a defender of humanity's right to development, and a force to propel development and progress throughout the world.\nThere will always be room for improvement in human rights, and the quest to improve people's right to development is always underway. As the world's largest developing country China faces daunting challenges, characterized by pressing problems such as unbalanced, uncoordinated, and unsustainable development. To achieve a higher level of development and better protect the people's right to development, China needs to maintain its efforts. Meeting the people's growing material and cultural needs and giving everyone access to sound development are still the primary tasks of the CPC in its governance of the country.\nThe Chinese people are working hard to achieve the Two Centenary Goals and the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. With the realization of these goals, China will make a historic and unprecedented leap, and the Chinese people's right to development will be further protected.\nAt the UN Sustainable Development Summit in September 2015, Chinese President Xi Jinping called upon all nations to mark a new starting point with the adoption of 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and unite to chart a path of development that is fair, open, comprehensive, and innovative. China will continue to work with the international community, strengthen cooperation, promote exchanges of experience, and make its due contribution to further increase the level of development of all peoples of the world and build a community with shared future for mankind\nEVENT: C-100 Capitol Hill Briefing on China\u2019s One Belt One Road Initiative and What It Means for US-China Relations | Mar 30, 2016\nPosted on April 4, 2016 by comm100\nOn the morning of March 30, the Committee of 100 hosted an invite-only breakfast at the U.S. Capitol building on \u201cChina\u2019s One Belt One Road Initiative: What It Means for US-China Relations\u201d, in partnership with the U.S. Association of Former Members of Congress (USAFMC), US-Asia Institute, and the China United State Exchange Foundation.\nCommittee of 100 member Ben Wu gave a brief description of C-100\u2019s missions and introduced The Honorable Connie Morella (R-MD,1987-2003). Morella delivered welcome remarks, touching on the importance of the One Belt One Road project. She was followed by keynote speaker Liu Mingkang, a member of the 17th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Mr. Liu is also a member of the China National Energy Commission.\nDuring his presentation, Liu Mingkang introduced the basic blueprint of the One Belt One Road initiative, and its relevance to U.S.-China relations. He then covered topics such as sustainability as it pertains to the project, as well as the respective roles of technological advancement, e-commerce, and digital economy in the One Belt One Road plan.\nMr. Liu\u2019s presentation was followed by a brief question and answer session, during which former Congressman Don Bonker inquired about China\u2019s efforts to promote a bilateral investment treaty, as well as China\u2019s stance on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Mr. Liu replied that China does not explicitly oppose the TPP, but that it has taken more time for China to fully understand the rules and standards of TPP, which is why China initially expressed reservations.\nThis briefing drew an audience of more than 40 participants, including C-100 member Timothy Tong and Ben Wu, as well as several former members of Congress, including The Honorable Connie Morella (R-MD,1987-2003); The Honorable Don Bonker (D-WA, 1975-1989); as well as The Honorable Thomas Petri (R-WI, 1979-2015).\nC-100 Member Timothy Tong, C-100 Member Ben Wu, The Hon.

        "raw_content": "Ennui Go With Rufus Wainwright at the 9:30\nRufus Wainwright, who brought an intimate but rambling show to an unsuitably large venue. (By Lian Lunson -- Lionsgate)\nRufus Wainwright has built his career on operettas, torch songs and lederhosen. At the 9:30 club Friday night, he downsized expectations, slinking onstage in a striped T-shirt, scarf and watch cap that made him look more like a Peanuts character than, say, David Bowie. The wardrobe reflected a simplified approach to the music, a career-spanning 20-song set in which Wainwright was accompanied only by his own piano or guitar (and occasionally, his sister Lucy's angelic backing vocal).\nWainwright declared the evening's modest aims early, welcoming the sellout crowd to \"the first of many, many solo shows to supplement my income, due to the lackluster music business.\" The you've-all-shown-up-in-my-living-room-so-\nI-may-as-well-play-a-few-songs vibe was clearly a thrill for the faithful, who shrieked at the star's quips, roared at his many denunciations of President Bush and missed no opportunity to fire off an \"I love you, Rufus!\" from the darkness.\nIt all made for a nice pep rally, but the spare approach did not flatter Wainwright's material: Stripped of their inventive arrangements, the tunes tended to bleed together.\nThe 9:30 is the wrong venue for a show like this, which seemed made for the Birchmere or Strathmore. The haphazard pacing didn't help, either. A meandering sequence of mid-tempo numbers that began with \"Little Sister\" seemed to test even Wainwright's patience: \"I'm a really great guitar player,\" he observed dryly while scratching out the chords of \"Peach Trees.\" Iffy fretwork aside, his keening voice was strong, and his piano-playing supple.\nThe encore featured a haunting duet of Leonard Cohen's \"Hallelujah.\" But the closing \"Gay Messiah\" somehow managed to feel like too much and too little too late.\n\"I'm so tired of writing elegies to boredom,\" Wainwright wailed in \"Sansoucci.\" You ain't the only one, bro.",

        "raw_content": "HOME \u203a PAPERS / ARTICLES \u203a CRIMINAL LAW \u203a International Application of the Fifth Amendment\nInternational Application of the Fifth Amendment:\nDr. Patrick J. Reville, Iona College, New Rochelle, N. Y., U.S.A.\nIn 1966, The United States Supreme Court issued its now legendary decision in Miranda v. Arizona (1), and the practice of criminal law in the United States as was then known, was changed forever. The \u201cMiranda Warnings\u201d became not only the \u201claw of the land\u201d in protecting the rights of the accused, but also resulted in evolution and education in the field of law enforcement, processes that continue to this date. Now comes a series of cases involving international terrorism, and Miranda and its old stable-mate Mapp (2) get trotted out again for a new look, to see whether members of \u201can international conspiracy--led by Osama Bin Laden and organized through the al Qaeda terrorist network--to kill American citizens and destroy American facilities across the globe\u201d(3), can make a run for the roses using the triple crown of American criminal jurisprudence, The Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments to the Constitution. Two races have been run, and the al Qaeda horsemen have finished out of the money. They now gear up and don their colors for one last run in their quest for exoneration: a date with the U.S. Supreme Court.\nErnesto Miranda was a young man with prior criminal activity and a Dishonorable Discharge from the U.S. Army on his resume. He was someone, clearly, that a young woman would not want to bring home to \u201cmeet the parents.\u201d In March of 1963, a young woman was kidnapped and sexually assaulted in Phoenix, Arizona, and Ernesto became a suspect. He was interrogated by the police for a few hours, and relatively quickly confessed to the crimes. His later attempts to suppress his confession and evidence seized related thereto/resulting therefrom were denied, and he was convicted in Arizona State Court and sentenced to twenty to thirty years in state prison. His appeal to the highest court in Arizona was denied, and he appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. The rest, as they say, is history. In a 5-4 split decision (see Figure 2, below), the Court concluded that Miranda\u2019s constitutional rights were violated (Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments), in that he should have been warned that he had the right to remain silent, the right to an attorney, the right to a free attorney if he had no money to hire one, and that if he did say anything to his interrogators, his statement(s) could and would be used against him in court.(4) These protections/warnings became required procedure for future prosecutions throughout the U.S.A. In August of 1998, perpetrators bombed the American Embassies in Nairobi, Kenya and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Statements were made overseas to U.S. and non-U.S. officials by persons suspected of involvement, which said statements were introduced as evidence to obtain convictions of those making the statements and others. The U.S. District Court (Leonard B. Sand, Judge) declined to suppress the statements.(5) The Second Circuit Court Of Appeals agreed with Judge Sand.(6) At this point, the convicted terrorists have one option left: the Supreme Court.\nThe Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures, and outlines requirements for warrants to issue. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. (7)\nThe Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution has five clauses/protections to it. No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentation or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.(8) The so called, \u201cself incrimination\u201d/ \u201cnor shall be compelled\u2026to be a witness against himself\u2026\u201d portion is operative in the discussion at hand.\nThe Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution has various protections. In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district where the crime shall have been committed; which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.(9) It is the \u201cAssistance of Counsel\u201d and the interpretation of Miranda requiring notice to an accused of the right to counsel, and notice of the supplying of free counsel if need be, that is operative in the discussion at hand. The right to counsel had been addressed numerous times by the Supreme Court prior to Miranda. In Johnson v. Zerbst (10), the Court confirmed that this right applied to Federal criminal cases, but it is widely agreed that the landmark case for counsel is Gideon v. Wainwright (11). In this 1963 case, the Court applied the Sixth Amendment through the Due Process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, thereby requiring States as well as the Federal government to supply appointed counsel in the event a defendant could not afford an attorney. Thus, when Miranda was decided in 1966, the Court was merely re-stating its prior position as to appointed counsel, but also taking the additional step in requiring that a defendant be advised that he had the right to counsel (Sixth Amendment), and to be advised that an attorney would be provided free of charge if one could not be afforded, as per Johnson v. Zerbst and Gideon v. Wainwright.\nMapp Discussion\nIn 1961, the U.S. Supreme Court decided the case of Mapp v. Ohio (12). Ms. Dollree Mapp\u2019s Cleveland, Ohio, home was raided by police without a warrant. They did not find what they were looking for (ironically, a suspected bombing fugitive), but they did find a trunk of pornographic photos and objects. Mapp was convicted for possessing obscene material. Her appeal to the Ohio Supreme Court was denied, and she appealed to the U.S. Supreme court on the grounds that her Fourth Amendment rights were violated. Although the high court had applied the Fourth Amendment to federal prosecutions in the past, and had instituted an \u201cexclusionary rule\u201d for improperly seized evidence in federal cases (13), the 6-3 decision (see Figure 1, below) in Mapp clearly held that the same rule should also apply in state prosecutions by funneling the Fourth Amendment through the Fourteenth Amendment\u2019s requirements of imposing due process on the states.\nSupreme Court Justice Opinions and Votes (by Ideology)\nDecision: 6 votes for Mapp, 3 vote(s) against\nLegal Provision: Amendment 4: Fourth Amendment\nFull Opinion by Justice Tom C. Clark\nFigure 1 Source: The Oyez Project, Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961)\nMiranda Discussion\nAs stated above, Ernesto Miranda was sentenced to twenty to thirty years in prison. Upon the reversal of his conviction, he was retried, reconvicted and re-sentenced to state prison. He was paroled in 1972. Yet, he continued to have trouble with the law, and was sent back to Arizona State Prison on a parole violation. After his release, he did not get far, in that he was mortally wounded at age 34 with a knife in a bar fight in 1976, short of ten years after the decision bearing his name was handed down. Ironically, the prime suspect in his fatal stabbing elected to stand on his Miranda rights, and refused to cooperate with the police. No one was ever formally charged with the killing.\nThe Miranda warnings set forth by the Court in its 1966 ruling have weathered the test of time. As recently as 2000, the Supreme Court struck down a federal statute aimed at weakening/limiting the application/enforcement of Miranda.(14) To this date, upon an arrest, the police are supposed to warn an accused: (1) You have the right to remain silent; (2) you have the right to an attorney to represent you in each any every aspect of this proceeding; (3) if you do not have funds to hire an attorney, one will be appointed to you free of charge; and, (4) if you do waive your right to remain silent, and talk to us, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. The sanction imposed against the prosecution is that if the accused is not properly advised of his rights, and if the accused confesses, and if the appropriate, timely (see significance, below) application is made to a court, and if the court finds that the accused\u2019s rights have been violated, the confession cannot be used as evidence against him. This does not mean that if the Miranda rights are violated the accused automatically goes free. As happened to Ernesto Miranda in the re-trial stage, if there is sufficient evidence aside from the suppressed confession to convict, a conviction can be obtained. Another irony in the Miranda saga: Although the confession he made to the police was not allowed into evidence in the re-trial, an incriminating statement he made to his common-law wife was allowed into evidence, which, it seems certain, was a factor contributing to his conviction. It seems that Ernesto Miranda did not apply his lesson learned regarding a suspect remaining silent as far as police are concerned to the wisdom of remaining silent, at least at times, when it pertains to responding to inquiries made by a suspecting spouse. Testimony about the statement he made to his common law wife was admitted into evidence over his attorney\u2019s objection, the Court at that time holding that spousal privilege did not apply to common-law relationships.\nDecision: 5 votes for Miranda, 4 vote(s) against\nLegal Provision: Self-Incrimination\nFull Opinion by Chief Justice Earl Warren\nFigure 2 Source: The Oyez Project, Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966)\nGideon Discussion\nGideon v. Wainwright (15) is the landmark case on the right itself to counsel in a criminal proceeding. Clarence Earl Gideon was arrested for allegedly breaking and entering a pool hall in Panama City, Florida in 1961. Facing felony jail time, he requested and was denied an assigned/appointed attorney. Having no funds for an attorney, he represented himself at trial. For his well intentioned efforts, he was found guilty by a jury and sentenced to five years in Florida State Prison. He ultimately appealed to the United States Supreme Court, and was appointed Washington, D.C. attorney, Abe Fortas to represent him. (Note: this is the same Abe Fortas that became a Supreme Court Justice, who was one of the five Justices voting in favor of Miranda in the Court\u2019s later 1966 decision, and whose portrait appears above with the Miranda bench.) The decision was 9-0 (see Figure 3, below) in favor of the principle that the states must assign counsel to indigent criminal defendants facing substantial incarceration.\nDecision: 9 votes for Gideon, 0 vote(s) against\nLegal Provision: Right to Counsel\nFigure 3 Source: The Oyez Project, Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335 (1963)\nIn re TERRORIST BOMBINGS OF U.S. EMBASSIES IN EAST AFRICA (16) Discussion\nOn August 7, 1998, individuals carried out a conspiracy to bomb U.S. Embassies in Nairobi, Kenya and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, that resulted in loss of life and property. An investigation ensued. Two suspects, convicted in the District Court in and for the Southern District of New York for their parts in the conspiracy, appealed to the 2nd Circuit Court Of Appeals. The Second Circuit concluded that the claims of defendants Mohamed Rashed Daoud Al-\u2019Owhali and Mohamed Sadeek Odeh as to their Fifth Amendment rights being violated, were properly decided at the District Court level, and, as a result, their convictions were affirmed.\nRe: Defendant Al-\u2019Owhali.\nThis defendant was lawfully detained by Kenyan authorities on August 12, 1998, quickly taken to Kenyan police headquarters in Nairobi, and interrogated by an FBI Special Agent, a NYC police detective and two Kenya national police officers. An Advice Of Rights (AOR) form commonly used by U.S. law enforcement personnel operations overseas, written in English, was presented to the defendant. The defendant told the U.S. investigators that he could not read English and had limited understanding of spoken English. The NY detective proceeded to slowly read the form in English to the defendant, stopping at certain junctures for signs of understanding. To the detective, the defendant appeared to understand, replied that in fact he understood when asked, and after having the form read to him, signed his name (using an alias) at the bottom of the form in Arabic. After so signing, the defendant was interrogated for one hour, responding in broken English. Then the investigators decided to continue the interrogation with the use of an interpreter, over a period of between two and four hours. During this time, the AOR form was read in English and then translated to the defendant. In addition, the defendant was interrogated over an additional eight days, the interviewers always referring back to the AOR, and inquiring if the witness understood his rights and consented to speak with them. He always consented to speak but denied any knowledge of the bombings.\nOn August 21, 1998, he indicated he would be willing to talk, if he could be tried in the United States. The next day, he was supplied with a document of understanding (DOU) which, among other things, stated that he had been advised of his rights to remain silent and not to talk to the police without a lawyer, and that the U.S. government would do its best to see he was tried in the U.S. courts. \u2019Owhali then indicated that he might want an attorney review the DOU, at which time, an Assistant U.S. Attorney recited to him, from memory, through a translator, a rough version of a domestic Miranda warning that did not contain the normal warning that if he could not afford an attorney, one would be provided for him free of charge. The Assistant U.S. Attorney did tell him that there was no American lawyer available to him at that time in Kenya. \u2019Owhali agreed to proceed despite this situation, but that he wanted clarification as to best efforts to try him in an American court. \u2019Owhali then said that he wanted to proceed, despite the lack of counsel present, and despite no full guarantee about being tried in the USA. \u2019Owhali signed the DOU, and was interrogated for three hours on August 23 and 24, and nine hours on August 25. During these times, he admitted his participation in the bombing of the American Embassy in Nairobi. He signed a second DOU on August 25 regarding additional information to be supplied.\nRe: Defendant Odeh\nDefendant Odeh was detained in Pakistan on August 7, 1998, on arriving there from Kenya, on the grounds of using a false passport. He was in custody in Pakistan until August 14, when he was sent back to Kenya. He was read, in English, an AOR similar to that read to defendant \u2019Owhali. He had no trouble conversing in English. He asked about the availability of a lawyer, but did not specifically request one. The Assistant U.S. Attorney suspended the talks to inquire about appointed (not retained) counsel in Kenya, and was advised that Kenya did not have such appointed/assigned counsel available for persons being questioned, and it was their practice in Kenya to continue to question suspects who asked for appointed counsel. The Assistant U.S. Attorney then gave an oral Miranda warning to Odeh. Regarding Counsel, Odeh was advised that he was entitled to have counsel present, and appointed if necessary, but that there was no American attorney available to represent him in Kenya. He signed the AOR on August 15, and was interrogated for approximately seven hours. In the middle of the interrogation, he was again advised that he did not have to proceed without counsel. He nevertheless agreed to continue to talk, on a daily basis. He admitted he was a member of al Qaeda, but denied knowledge of the embassy bombings. On August 27, he was transferred to American custody and given standard Miranda warnings.\nThe Motions To Suppress Statements, and Decision at District Court Level\nBoth defendants moved in U.S. District Court to suppress statements made due to alleged Fifth Amendment/Miranda violations/shortcomings. Defendant Odeh then withdrew his suppression motion, claiming religious grounds regarding swearing to a supporting affidavit. The District Court thereafter granted defendant Al-\u2019Owhai\u2019s motion to suppress the statements, at which time defendant Odea re-filed his motion to suppress. The U.S. government then filed a motion to reconsider the granting of Al-\u2019Owhai\u2019s motion to suppress. The District Court decided to re-open its consideration of the motion(s), indicating more fact finding was appropriate. The District Court then ruled that \u2019Owhali\u2019s motion was granted in part (as to statements made after the AOR) but denied as to statements made after the Miranda warning. As to Odeh\u2019s motion, the ruling was that the argument about statements made in Pakistan was untimely (since it had been withdrawn), and the argument about statements made after the oral Miranda warning was dismissed on the merits. With the majority of the statements allowed into evidence, the defendants were convicted.\nThe Appeal To The Second Circuit and Decision\nThe defendants \u2019Owahi and Odeh appealed to the Second Circuit Court Of Appeals, and on November 24, 2008, the three judge panel of Feinberg, Newman and Cabranes, Circuit Judges, with Judge Cabranes issuing the opinion, basically affirmed the convictions of both defendants as entered by the U.S. District Court.(17) Numerous issues were addressed by Judge Cabranes. There are actually three parts to the decision, but this part of the discussion is limited to the Fifth Amendment Challenges part of the case. As will be seen below, the narrow question that gives rise to the sub-title of this paper (Where In The World Is Ernesto Miranda?), is answered with the premise that Miranda protection in fact is found not only in Arizona and throughout the United States proper, but Ernesto Miranda\u2019s legacy stretches to even the far corners of the world, to places like Nairobi, Kenya and Karachi, Pakistan.\nRe: District Court\u2019s Procedural Decisions\n1. Odeh\u2019s Withdrawal of his First Motion to Suppress. As was alluded to above, defendant Odeh, after filing a Motion to suppress claiming Fifth Amendment grounds, shortly thereafter got \u201ccold feet\u201d and requested that he be allowed to withdraw his motion, on the grounds that his swearing to an affidavit in support of said motion was contrary to his religious beliefs. The Court allowed him to withdraw the motion, with leave to renew the motion without prejudice in the future. When he became aware, just before trial, that his co-defendant\u2019s motion to suppress statements would be granted, at least in part, he then re-filed his prior withdrawn motion to suppress. The trial judge denied this re-filed motion as untimely, as some five or six months had lapsed since the withdrawal. Odeh now claims on appeal, that the trial Judge erred in withdrawal of the initial motion, and that his attorneys violated his Sixth Amendment rights as to effective assistance of counsel in allowing it to be withdrawn and/or not re-filing the motion sooner. Judge Cabranes rejects both arguments in his appellate decision. \u201cOdeh\u2019s own actions--in particular, his request, on religious grounds, to withdraw his affidavit in support of the suppression motion and his insistence, again on religious grounds, that his lawyers not re-file the motion\u2014fully explain why his first suppression motion was deemed withdrawn by the District Court and not immediately renewed by his attorneys. Accordingly, he has no basis to complain now that his constitutional rights were violated.\u201d(18). And since Odeh instructed his counsel to so proceed, Judge Cabranes flatly stated that deferring to the wishes of counsel does not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel (19). And lastly, the complaint that delay in re-filing was ineffective assistance of counsel, Judge Cabranes concluded that since there was no use of statements from interrogation in Pakistan, there was no prejudice to the defendant (20). In effect: \u201cno harm, no foul.\u201d\n2. Reopening of defendant Al-\u2019Owhali\u2019s Suppression Hearing. As stated above, Judge Sand at the District Court level at first granted, at least in part, this defendant\u2019s motion to suppress, based on a perceived failure to comply with Miranda requirements. Yet, upon reconsideration, the motion was denied. Was it error to reconsider? Judge Cabranes concludes it was not error. Citing United States v. Bayless (21) in support of a \u201csecond look\u201d based on additional evidence supplied, and the discretion afforded a District Court in so doing, Judge Cabranes affirmed the action as proper. Of great import is Judge Cabranes\u2019 observation that the legal question of applying the Fifth Amendment and Miranda to statements made overseas had never been decided by the Second Circuit nor nationally (emphasis added). (22)\nRe: The District Court\u2019s Denial Of Motions to Suppress Statements, on the Merits.\n1. Does the Fifth Amendment and Miranda apply to statements made in foreign custody to U.S. agents? This is the key point of the decision, and the reason for this research paper. As stated above, it is a question of first impression. Judge Cabranes does not mince words: \u201cLike the District Court, we conclude that the admissibility at trial of statements made to U.S. agents by foreign nationals held in foreign custody is governed by the Fifth Amendment\u2026Although we need not decide whether we agree with the District Court as to all the aspects of its ruling on the Fifth Amendment and Miranda, it suffices to hold\u2026that insofar as Miranda might apply to interrogations conducted overseas, that decision is satisfied when a U.S. agent informs a foreign detainee of his rights under the U.S. Constitution when questioned overseas.\u201d(23) And further: \u201cWe note that U.S. agents acting overseas need not become experts in foreign criminal procedure in order to comply with Miranda; nor need they advocate for the appointment of local counsel on a foreign suspect\u2019s behalf. While doing so may provide additional grounds for finding any statements obtained in the course of the interrogations were made voluntarily, it is not required by the Fifth Amendment or Miranda. If the suspect chooses to make a knowing and voluntary waiver of his rights after a warning adapted to the circumstances of questioning overseas and chooses to speak with a U.S. agent, then neither the Fifth Amendment nor Miranda will bar the admission of his statement at trial. (24)\n2. Are foreign nationals interrogated overseas but tried in civilian courts of the United States protected by the Fifth Amendment? Judge Cabranes answers this in the affirmative. (25)\n3. Does Miranda govern the admissibility at trial of statements made overseas? Judge Cabranes, citing the Dickerson (26) case, decides that the framework of Miranda generally applies, but that \u201cthe application of that framework to overseas interrogation may differ from its domestic application, depending on local circumstances, in keeping with the context-specific nature of the Miranda rule.\u201d(27) And further: \u201cEven if we were to conclude, rather than assume, that Miranda applies to overseas interrogations involving U.S. agents, that would not mean that U.S. agents must recite verbatim the familiar Miranda warnings to those detained in foreign lands.\u201d(28) The Judge sees a \u201cflexible fashion\u201d accommodation as appropriate. (29)\n4. In applying the Fifth Amendment and Miranda to the facts at hand as to the defendants\u2019 interrogations, did the U.S. agents comply with the law? The conclusion was \u201cthat the AOR substantially complied with whatever Miranda requirements were applicable\u2026\u201d(30) and the oral warning provided by the AUSA also satisfied Miranda. (31)\n5. Were the Defendant\u2019s waiver of their Miranda rights voluntary? Conclusion again, in the affirmative., upholding the District Court\u2019s finding. (32)\n6. Were the waivers executed knowingly? Yes, again. (33) Were the statements voluntary? Yes. (34)\nThe Fourth Amendment Portion Of The Decisions\nAs stated above, this paper does not discuss, in detail, the Fourth Amendment aspects of the case. It will take another paper, at another time, to do justice to that discussion. It is significant to note, however, that the conclusion of that portion of the decisions was that the evidence seized in Kenya and surveillance of Kenyan telephone lines was properly admitted at trial because (a) although the \u201creasonable\u201d portion of the Fourth Amendment applies to searches and seizures of extraterritorial searches of U.S. citizens, the searches were in fact reasonable; and, (b) the \u201cWarrant Clause\u201d of the Amendment does not apply to such searches, and therefore, no warrant was necessary. (35)\nMiranda and Mapp have not only weathered the test of time, they have traveled far and wide, across the United States, and abroad. It has been a journey of in excess of forty years. At this point, subject to further action by the U.S. Supreme Court in considering the Second Circuit\u2019s convictions of Odea and \u2019Owhali, they have reached halfway around the world, to Kenya and Pakistan. Based on their history and longevity, it appears that they have many years ahead of them. These horses have not been put out to pasture, and in no way should it be implied that the interpretation and application of these cases are a settled matter. Every day, in every criminal court across the nation (and now, apparently, across the world), the M&M team, Miranda and Mapp, get to play still, because, although it seems settled that they are the law of the land, prosecutors will continue to seek to limit, by interpretation, the reaches of these cases, and defense counsel will continue to seek to expand, by interpretation, these very same parameters. As has been the case, judges will continue to be required to decide these differences of interpretation and application. And so, depending on the judicial philosophy of the federal judges who hear these cases, at all levels, we will likely continue to revisit the principles set forth in these landmark cases again and again.\nREFERENCES/FOOTNOTES\nIn re Terrorist Bombings Of U.

        "raw_content": "The Corning Museum of Glass Is Cooler Than You Think\nSo a \"Museum of Glass\" may not sound all that interesting. I mean, how fascinating can glass be? You eat on it, drink from it, look through it, and perhaps even sit on it. But I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed visiting the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York.\nDuring my visit to the Finger Lakes, I visited the museum and immediately fell in love with its open floor design and glass art displays. I can barely even paint my nails within the lines, so the fact that these artists can create, mold, and sculpt such a fragile piece of medium is truly impressive.\nDress made of glass\nAs you walk through, you can't help but to be in awe of the glass art exhibits. One after the other, artists have used glass to express themselves and create beautiful works of art.\nA tree within glass cups\nFurther in to the museum, I learned about the history of glass from all over the world. Glass was first created by man about 4,000 years ago in Mesopotamia when craftsmen discovered the art of mixing sand, soda, and lime to make glass. One of the most interesting facts I learned was that back in the 1800's, glass objects were made to replicate body parts for students to learn and practice. You have glass to thank for helping to advance modern medicine!\nAfter my tour, I sat in on a glass-breaking demo. I was a little disappointed I wasn't chosen to break glass in the demonstration, but little 10-year old Timmy did a great job. The instructor explained why some types of glass breaks in various patterns and quicker than others.\nGlass-Breaking Demo\nI also sat in on a Hot Glass Demo, where we saw artists use hot glass to create a vase. At the end of the demo, they gave the vase to a lucky audience member. For me, the coolest part of the museum visit was the 'Make Your Own Glass' class. You're able to choose your design and color scheme and with the assistance of a qualified professional, make all of your glass dreams come true. I created my very own glass flower that now proudly sits on my mother's mantle (and she loves it!).\nOverall, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Corning Museum of Glass. Glass is much cooler than you think, so if you ever find yourself in the Finger Lakes, you must make time to visit the museum. You can also eat lunch during your visit, as they have a great cafeteria with plenty of option. On the ground floor, there's also a stellar gift shop that has glass gifts ranging from $6 to $4,000 or more, so there's literally something for everyone. Just don't break it!\nNote: There's a shuttle that takes you from the Glass Museum, to The Rockwell Museum (American art Smithsonian affiliate, which I also highly recommend), and to Corning's downtown Market Street area. You can spend an entire day enjoying everything Corning has to offer.\nFor more information on the Corning Museum of Glass, click here.\nNewer Post5 Reasons Myrtle Beach is Worth a Visit\nOlder PostFood, Wine and Beer: A Weekend Guide to Southern Finger Lakes, New York",

Photograph:( Reuters )\nAFP Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Dec 08, 2018, 04.10 PM (IST)\nThousands of banner-waving Muslims dressed in white rallied in the Malaysian capital Saturday demanding protection of their rights, at a time of growing racial tensions in the multi-ethnic country.\nBig crowds gathered in downtown Kuala Lumpur, chanting \"God is great\" and waving banners that read \"Long live the Malays\", an AFP reporter said. Large numbers of police were on the streets and major roads were closed.\nThe rally was originally intended as a protest against a plan by the government, which took power in May after defeating the scandal-mired old regime, to ratify a UN convention which aims to eliminate racial discrimination.\nAuthorities abandoned the plan after opposition from conservative politicians and Malays, who feared the treaty could erode privileges they have long enjoyed.\nBut Muslim groups pushed ahead with Saturday's demonstration, which alongside the convention has become about the bigger issue of defending Malays' position in society and Islam.\n\"I hope the other races don't challenge the rights of the Malays. As a Muslim, I want Islam to be the first (priority) in Malaysia,\" protester Arif Hashim, 26, told AFP.\nAuthorities did not immediately have an estimate for the size of the rally, which is due to end at 6:00 pm (1000 GMT).\nMalays who make up some 60 per cent of the country's 32 million people have been given substantial help, such as financial handouts, for decades but critics argue the system needs reform.\nThe United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) a party that ruled Malaysia at the head of a coalition until its election defeat has backed the rally.\nAnalysts say it is using the event to divert attention from its troubles.\nSenior party figures, including disgraced ex-premier Najib Razak, have been slapped with corruption charges. Najib, accused over the plundering of state fund 1MDB, denies wrongdoing.",

They must make sure that the contracts awarded are well written and ensure that when business picks up again, as we emerge from recession, that the services can be restored without the need for subsidies.

        "title": "Real or Fake? Discussing \"Christians\" with Our Kids",
        "raw_content": "It is only a matter of time before our youngest son begins asking what the difference is between a \u201creal\u201d Christian and a \u201cfake\u201d one. He has much of the information stored away in simple terms- that some people believe in Jesus and call themselves Christians and are going to heaven, and that others say they believe in Jesus and call themselves Christians but are not presently going to heaven- and soon, I can see the wheels beginning to turn, he will ask what makes one a \u201creal\u201d Christian and the other a \u201cfake.\u201d\nNow, I fully appreciate that this is no black and white discussion and that there is room for debate about exactly how much detailed understanding of Jesus Christ is required for a person to be truly saved (The thief on the cross comes to mind), but that is not quite the direction that I am interested in heading. The particular issue that is relevant to our children\u2019s interests will most likely be whether the Latter-Day Saints and Jehovah\u2019s Witness friends that we dearly love are \u201creal\u201d Christians, so this is the route that I would like to explore here briefly. God is the final judge, yes, but we can draw some firm conclusions about this by being grounded in scripture and being familiar with LDS and JW theology.\nFirst, I think I will preface the conversation with our boy by clarifying what we mean by \u201creal\u201d when we refer to a Christian. CARM has several great articles that I will be referring to, and the first is regarding what a Christian IS:\n\u201cThe word Christian comes from the Greek word christianos which is derived from the word christos or Christ, which means \u201canointed one.\u201d A Christian, then, is someone who is a follower of Christ. The first use of the word \u201cChristian\u201d in the Bible is found in Acts 11:26, \u201cAnd the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.\u201d [\u2026]\nChristianity teaches the following: there is only one God in all existence; God is a Trinity; Jesus Christ is God in flesh; salvation is by grace alone through faith alone; Jesus died on the cross; and Jesus rose from the dead in a glorified, physical body. The religion that contradicts any of these teachings is not Christian.\u201d[1]\nSo, for our boy, I will explain that a \u201creal\u201d Christian believes:\nSins are only forgiven by the grace of God, not because of our own hard work.\nJesus came back to life- body and all.\nThe Gospel is the good news that Jesus died, was buried, and rose again.\nFrom that point, the differences between a real Christian view of Jesus Christ and the aforementioned offshoots will become pretty apparent. Going into great detail at this young age would probably only serve to muddle his memory about the right beliefs and the wrong ones, but explaining them briefly will probably be sufficient for helping him see the differences.\nHow does the JW teaching stack up?\nJesus is not God, he is a created being.\nSalvation comes chiefly through our works.\nJesus did not rise bodily from the dead.[2]\nHow does the LDS teaching stack up?\n\u201cMormonism is not Christian because it denies that there is only one God, denies the true Gospel, adds works to salvation, denies that Jesus is the uncreated creator, distorts the Biblical teaching of the atonement, undermines the authority and reliability of the Bible, says that God used to be a man who came from another planet and that we can become gods and that there is a goddess mother in heaven, etc.\u201d [3]\nIf you\u2019d like to see first-hand the differences in doctrine, I would recommend browsing their own documents, starting here.\nOnce the \u201creal\u201d and the \u201cfake\u201d have been laid side by side, it may be helpful to confirm that many people claim to know, and even love, Jesus Christ. They may truly believe and feel that they do. However, so long as they aren\u2019t believing in the actual, historical person named Jesus, they are (to quote C.S. Lewis) \u201cworshiping an imaginary God.\u201d This is all probably too abstract for him, so it will be important to provide an analogy. For instance:\n\u201cYou\u2019ve spent quite a bit of time hearing your friends talk about Darth Vader. You haven\u2019t seen the movies yourself, but they have told you lots of things about Star Wars, and you now have some things in mind that you think are true about him. You\u2019d probably say you\u2019re a fan of him. For example, you\u2019ve told me he is the \u201cbad guy in charge,\u201d and that his name is \u201cDark Vader.\u201d But I know- because I have watched the movies carefully- that there is actually a bad guy in charge of him, that his name is *Darth* Vader, and that the character in the movie is quite a bit different from the ideas that you have about him. It wouldn\u2019t be true to say that you know about the real Darth Vader, because your ideas about him aren\u2019t right, and that makes the *Dark* Vader you know a fake. So, you aren\u2019t worshipping a fake God, but you are talking about a fake character, and watching the movies carefully would help to clear up your misunderstanding.\u201d\nThis isn\u2019t an airtight analogy, no, but it should be concrete enough to help him understand. To wrap up conversations like this, we end with a reminder that we need to pray for people who don\u2019t know the real Jesus. Making the distinction between \u201creal\u201d and \u201cfake\u201d Christians should not be a disconnected academic exercise, and it should certainly not be a way to make us feel better about being \u201creal.\u201d It is of eternal importance. We need to pray faithfully for LDS and JW adherents to hear about and turn to the true Jesus.\n\u201cNot everyone who says to me, \u2018Lord, Lord,\u2019 will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, \u2018Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?\u2019 And then will I declare to them, \u2018I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness\u2019\u201d (Matthew 7:21-23).\n[1] CARM, \u201cChristian\u201d https://carm.org/dictionary-christian, (accessed June 11, 2015).\n[2] JW.org, \u201cLesson 4: Who Is Jesus Christ?\u201d http://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/good-news-from-god/who-is-jesus-christ/, (accessed June 11, 2015).\n[3] CARM, \u201cIs Mormonism Christian?\u201d by Matt Slick https://carm.org/is-mormonism-christian, (accessed June 11, 2015).\nWant to be notified when Picture Book Apologetics releases their Logical Fallacy Quick Guide PITFALLS?

        "raw_content": "It is a fact that men think about sex several times a day. But sexuality also plays an important role for us women. We also feel desire and sexual arousal. Studies have shown that female desire is perhaps even more pronounced than male sexuality. In society, however, female arousal is rarely treated openly. To change this, we are all challenged to share our experiences of love and relationship, and especially to articulate the needs of the female sex. Having a sex life is nothing to be ashamed of.\nFemale Sexuality in Detail\nIt is not only men who want to have sex. The female body also reacts sensitively to sexual touches, which play an important role in life. They are a human need. It is true that an intact partnership is a prerequisite for sexual desire for many women. But there are those who enjoy a fulfilled sex life without having deeper feelings for the man. Others, on the other hand, prefer masturbation in the absence of a partner. In practice, the possibilities to gain satisfaction as a woman are limitless. It is only important to know one\u2019s own sexuality and to get involved with it.\nApart from fetishes, postures and erogenous zones, more general sexual preferences can also be distinguished. As already mentioned, feelings play an important role for most people. Some can only let themselves fall in an intact relationship. Giving up control and completely giving one\u2019s own body to another person requires a lot of trust. Besides, let\u2019s be honest: each of us enjoys driving our own man crazy even after a long time. This makes us feel physically attractive and increases our self-confidence. This makes us feel more comfortable in our skin. So de facto we improve our quality of life and also our health is positively influenced.\nThe time of year and day of sexual activity vary according to gender. While men are sexually aroused in summer and in the morning, women prefer spring and evening hours.\nEspecially in the evening, when the problems of the day are no longer on our backs, it is particularly easy to give oneself physically to others. Here we also rather reach an orgasm.\nIt is easier for men to switch off when stimulating their erogenous zones and give themselves completely to the cause.\nTip for all women: especially on vacation (where we are completely relaxed), it is easier for us to increase the arousal until orgasm.\nThe cycle also influences the needs of the female body. We feel a particularly high desire due to hormones shortly before ovulation. After the birth of a child, on the other hand, the hormone prolactin inhibits our desire.\nFemale sexuality in society\nWhile men are now granted sexual intercourse for pleasure, some still believe that our sexuality is limited to the function of reproduction. Like every human being, however, women also long for physical closeness. One author writes in his book that women let themselves be aroused by more things than men. Often women even want more sex than their partner, but do not dare to address this topic. If they feel rejected and not desirable, the desire can be lost for a long time.\nWhat are the reasons for sexual unwillingness?\nSexual problems can have many causes. Often complexes related to one\u2019s own body are decisive. According to studies, one third of all women have no desire to have sex. This affects not only sexuality, but also the relationship.\nOverall, sexual unwillingness can be traced back to physical (hormonal and organic), psychological and partnership causes.\nNo desire for sex \u2013 that is to blame:\nToo little testosterone (male sex hormone): triggered by removal of the ovaries, menopause or by taking the pill.\nLoss of sensitivity (operations on intervertebral discs or large intestine)\nDiseases (diabetes, arteriosclerosis, hypothyroidism)\nIt is perfectly normal not to feel any desire from time to time. However, if this is the case permanently, you should get to the bottom of it quickly and solve the problem. After all, sexuality is an issue that should accompany us throughout our lives and bring us joy.\nSex in old age\nSexuality develops through experience. We reach the end of development and, so to speak, the flowering of our sexuality at the age of about 35.",

        "raw_content": "MA in Sociology or Social Anthropology\nThe MA programme offers students the opportunity to develop a structured research programme on a selected topic at a more advanced level than the Honours programme, drawing on the theoretical and methodological traditions within the disciplines of either Sociology or Social Anthropology.\nThe programme is an essential step along the career path of academics and researchers and will also be of benefit to social analysts, planners, developers and consultants, as well as to those working professionally in specific fields, such as government, health, development, education, the environment, social policy, gender programming and the media.\nStudents are expected to develop and demonstrate the conceptual and research skills necessary for the study of society and human relations at an advanced level, while deepening their knowledge of and insight into society, including from a comparative perspective. The focus is on deepening the student\u201fs grasp of the theoretical and methodological foundations of Sociology or Social Anthropology as well as his/her ability to apply sociological or social anthropological theory, analysis and research methodology in a selected field of study.\nCandidates obtain a MA degree in either Sociology or Social Anthropology primarily by research thesis. The programme involves a minimum of one year fulltime study, although a period of 18 months to two years is more common and students are urged to budget their time accordingly. Arrangements can be made for part-time study.\nIn the first semester of registration the student must define his or her research topic and develop a suitable research proposal to guide the research in consultation with a designated supervisor. A guide for the development of a Masters proposal is available from the Department.\nIn support of this work students attend an orientation programme and take one module (871) intended to: (1) provide a general induction to the MA programmes, staff members\u2019 research interests, the student-supervisor relationship, the examining process, departmental progress reporting requirements, ethics approval processes, as well as the technical requirements of a research proposal and writing a MA thesis; and (2) deepen the student\u201fs intellectual engagement with the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of research and research design at this level.\nFailure to complete this module successfully may lead to the student being asked to withdraw from the programme.\nOnce the module is completed and a suitable research proposal has been developed, the students are expected to begin their research, normally by the start of the second semester of their first year of registration. The final output is a research thesis of approximately 40 000 words (excluding references and appendices); technical requirements are set out in Section 5.7 of the University Calendar.\nThe option of undertaking a pure research thesis without taking the support module may be considered under exceptional circumstances, upon motivation to the programme coordinator.\nWith both options, the student is assigned a thesis supervisor who provides individual guidance. Students are expected to initiate appointments/discussion with their supervisors, prepare inputs and written drafts of chapters, receive comments on assignments and also report on their progress orally and in written format, including via e-mail. The supervisor\u2019s responsibilities are to give the student advice related to the conceptualisation and design of his/her research project as well as give both written and oral feedback and comments on student work that is submitted.\nIt is important for students and supervisors to keep in regular contact; a rule of thumb is that on average there should be a substantive meeting or set of communications between student and supervisor every 4 \u2013 6 weeks, or more frequently by mutual arrangement. It is also important for students to appreciate that academic staff have many other commitments and to plan their programme accordingly, especially when it comes to meeting university procedures and deadlines around submitting their work for examination. A rough rule of thumb is that staff can be expected to provide feedback within three weeks of receipt of material from their students, unless otherwise negotiated.\nWhen it comes to the final draft of the thesis, students should be prepared to present their completed draft for final review by their supervisors no later than four weeks before the official submission date to the Postgraduate Examination Office, if they wish to meet that deadline. The Department encourages the negotiation of an individual supervisory contract between supervisor and student at the start of the supervisory relationship.\nContent of the research thesis\nThe specialisation area of a student depends on the interest of the student and the availability of lecturers to supervise the particular topic. Students are urged to familiarise themselves with the research specialisations of staff in the Department and to explore\nopportunities to link their MA studies to on-going research programmes within the Department. However, the Department also welcomes well-motivated ideas and proposals from prospective students on other topics, provided that the necessary expertise is available to offer sound supervision.\nThe thesis is worth 180 credits and is examined by both an internal and an external\nexaminer in accordance with University rules.\nIn addition to feedback to students in individual modules, the Department reviews student progress on an annual basis by means of a Progress Report that is completed by both the student and his/her supervisor. This Report affords both students and supervisors an opportunity to reflect on the academic progress of the individual student and identify any issues or problems requiring follow-up or attention, including from the side of the Department. Failure to demonstrate satisfactory academic progress may result in the Department not recommending that a student be allowed to re-register for the programme the following year.\nProgramme co-ordinators\nSocial Anthropology:\nE-mail: slr@sun.ac.za\nMA in Social Science Methods\nThe programme offers students the opportunity to develop a structured research thesis with a strong methodological focus on a selected topic (100% thesis of approximately 100 to 120 pages). The programme focuses on the development of critical thought as well as theoretical, conceptual and research competency in a specialised area of social science research, e.g. philosophy of science, research ethics, sociology of science and research management and/or with a strong methodological component.\nThe MA programme follows after the Postgraduate Diploma in Social Science Methods or an Honours Degree in Sociology or Social Anthropology or an equivalent qualification on NQFlevel 8. An average of at least 65%, with demonstrated academic ability, is required.\nIn combination with the Postgraduate Diploma in Social Science Methods, the programme will be of strong benefit to social researchers, methodology lecturers, market researchers, development planners in local and national government departments, NGO employees involved in social research activities, policy analysts and advisers.\nThe programme involves a minimum of one year registration to complete a thesis. In the first term of registration the student must define his or her research topic and develop a suitable research proposal to guide the research in consultation with a designated supervisor. A guide for the development of a Masters proposal is available from the Department.\nIn support of this work students attend an orientation programme and are encouraged to join the MA programme in Sociology/Social Anthropology by taking one module (871) intended to (1) provide a general induction to the MA programmes, staff members\u201f research interests, the student-supervisor relationship, the examining process, departmental progress reporting requirements, ethics approval processes, as well as technical requirements of a research proposal and MA thesis; and (2) deepen the student\u2019s intellectual engagement with the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of research at this level.\nOnce the preliminaries are completed and a suitable research proposal has been developed, the students are expected to begin their research ideally no later than by the start of the second semester of their first year of registration. The final output is a research thesis of approximately 30,000 \u2013 40,000 words (excluding references and appendices).\nThe student is assigned a thesis supervisor who provides individual guidance. Students are expected to initiate appointments/discussion with their supervisors, prepare inputs and written drafts of chapters, receive comments on assignments and also report on their progress orally and in written format, including via e-mail.

        "raw_content": "Yeng Guiao an \u2018ideal\u2019 PBA commissioner: \u2018He has a great mind\u2019\nAs the PBA moves on from the leadership of outgoing commissioner Chito Narvasa, the search is now on for the next man who will replace him at the helm.\nIf you ask Rain or Shine team owner Raymond Yu, there\u2019s only one guy who\u2019s fit for the job.\n\u201cI think Yeng Guiao is the ideal commissioner of the PBA,\u201d Yu said. \u201cHe\u2019s been a commissioner before (in the PBL). He can govern because he\u2019s been a long-time politician and he knows the ins and outs of the PBA.\n\u201cAt this point in time, what the PBA needs is somebody who\u2019s not been away from the PBA.\u201d\nWhile he made his mark in coaching, the temperamental Guiao served as PBL commissioner from 1997 to 2000.\nAfter that stint, Guiao returned to the PBA sidelines as head coach of Red Bull which he transformed into champions in the early 2000s.\nApart from his endeavors in Philippine basketball, Guiao also served as a public official in Pampanga. He was elected as board member, vice governor and congressman in a span of almost two decades.\nLike Yu, San Miguel Beer team executive Gee Abanilla, a former assistant coach of Guiao, also believes his former mentor is qualified to become the next PBA commissioner.\n\u201cHe has handled the PBL then outstandingly and I don\u2019t see any reason why he can\u2019t duplicate that in the PBA. He has a great mind, compassion, vision and love for the game,\u201d Abanilla said.\nBut he would rather see Guiao work his magic in the sidelines as a coach than as a commissioner.\n\u201cUnfortunately, we don\u2019t want to take away a great coach in the PBA, do we?\u201d Abanilla added.\nGuiao said there\u2019s a possibility that he would entertain the idea\u2013after he\u2019s done coaching, that is. For now, he is contented working for the NLEX Road Warriors as their head coach and general manager.\n\u201cMalabong mangyari yun eh. Alam naman natin yun,\u201d Guiao said.\n\u201cIf I\u2019m not coaching, I would think about that. But I really love coaching. I would not trade coaching for commissionership. It\u2019s what I love doing. Siguro, kung retired na ako.\u201d\nNevertheless, Guiao gave his take on the tough task that awaits the next commissioner after an impasse involving the league\u2019s board members which was resolved when Narvasa resigned.\n\u201cYou have the MVP Group, you have the San Miguel Group and you have the independent group. The next commissioner should have the trust and confidence of all these groups,\u201d he said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s an advantage for someone who is being groomed as the next commissioner to be someone who\u2019s not been away from the league for quite some time, but not necessarily a must.\u201d\ngee abanilla",

It's not just historians nattering away about what they read/know, with a few old photos shown here and there. It's a mixture of a woman's narrative, narrating parts from Loretta's autobiography, The Woman in Battle, and reenactments of Loretta's life from childhood to marriage to motherhood to war.\nWith, of course, the occasional historian and photo appropriate to the time period. There's only one known photograph of Loretta herself and even that is in doubt.\nDon't know who I'm talking about? I'll tell ya the gist of it. Loretta Janeta Velazquez was born into a wealthy Cuban family and sent to the States to become a proper lady. Instead of becoming a proper lady, Loretta married a man her family didn't approve of (her best friend's boyfriend), and upon being widowed and losing her two daughters (a third stillborn), she cut off all her hair, donned her dead husband's uniform, and fought for the Confederacy, as a man.\nWhat's strange to me, however, and sadly not explained in this documentary--it's said the reasons for her actions were not made clear--is why was a Cuban woman who wasn't even really accepted as a Southern lady, fighting to enslave others?\nThough the well-to-do white Cubans did their share of slave owning, not unlike Puerto Rico. And much ado was made about how \"white\" or how \"colored\" a person of Latin descent was. Ladies in society even went so far as to pay a lot of money to prove their ancestry was \"untouched\" by those of darker complexions.\nAnd the documentary does state that the city of New Orleans, where she spent her growing-up years sided with the South even though they weren't slave owners.\nEven crazier, in order to be accepted by the white slave owners she was fighting alongside, Loretta bought a slave of her own--Bob. She had to enslave another, in order to explore her own freedom.\nThere are a lot of things about Loretta that seem contradictory. She's a hard one to figure out. But one thing is for certain: she's a fascinating woman in history who did some brave things, from fighting in the battle of Bull Run to publishing her memoirs at the risk of being publicly declared a fraud to helping with the Cuban Revolution. Did I mention she defected to the North? That put her back in my good graces. LOL\nShe was even wounded four times, hiding the wounds and averting treatment, in order to hide her sex. She did this until caught in 1863, when she was forced to go from soldier to spy and then became a double agent, having had her eyes open to war and what was really going on behind the battle lines.\nA great documentary about an interesting woman. I do wish it had been longer. It's a mere hour, though an intriguing one.\nLabels: civil war, Movies/TV, Real Women",

        "raw_content": "Moving to Electronic Medical Records \u2013 Pros and Cons\nIf you\u2019ve been to a new doctor\u2019s office lately, you may have had the experience of having the medical assistant use a computer to record all of your symptoms and complaints. It\u2019s also quite likely that the doctor also used a computer to make his or her notes, order tests and perhaps even fax your prescription directly to your pharmacy. Welcome to the world of electronic medical records, also known as EMRs.\nAs we begin to rely on technology more and more, it seems inevitable that we\u2019d eventually develop electronic medical records. Some organizations have embraced them wholeheartedly, while other doctors resist using EMRs. In addition, patients are divided between loving the convenience of these new systems and worrying about their privacy. But what are the pros and cons of using EMRs?\nIn theory, EMRs would reduce medical errors. Doctors have infamously horrible handwriting, and an electronic record would eliminate any problems due to legibility. An error could still be made by checking the wrong box in a form for example, but EMRs have programs in place to help catch these types of errors. On the other hand, EMRs can be too limiting in the case of patients who have multiple conditions or whose conditions don\u2019t fit neatly into the record\u2019s pre-established criteria.\nIn addition, the volume of paper medical records can grow considerably over time until they becomes quite bulky. Paper degrades and there\u2019s the ongoing problem of increasing storage requirements. EMRs, on the other hand, can always be stored in a small amount of space.\nPaper medical records are also subject to loss from fire, flood damage or other emergency. While EMRs may also fall prey to such hazards, it\u2019s easier to backup electronic data and store it off site so that it can be recovered in the event of a disaster.\nWhen a patient\u2019s records are in paper form, it can be harder to get copies of all documents to the various sites where they are needed. When the records are contained in an EMR, the information can be more easily accessed. On the other hand, there is, at present, no standardization among EMRs. If you use providers who aren\u2019t part of the same system and use different EMR formats, it can be hard to transfer information from one record to another.\nAccess to an EMR is also a major privacy issue. Patients worry that computer systems can be hacked and wireless networks aren\u2019t always secure. For this reason, it\u2019s far easier to steal information from an EMR than from a paper medical record. Patients also worry that sensitive medical data could be used inappropriately, such as when applying for a job or admission to college. While it\u2019s against the law to discriminate, when it comes to this type of information, once it\u2019s been seen, it can\u2019t be forgotten. As medical information becomes more advanced \u2013 including genetic information, for example \u2013 people have even more reason to worry that the information will wind up in the wrong hands.\nFinally, when a health care provider is busy entering information into an EMR, it can be easy to ignore the patient or reduce the patient interview to a series of questions designed to allow the doctor to tick off the appropriate boxes. The practice of medicine is still an art, and some patient advocates argue that EMRs could detract from the human side of the equation.\nThe author writes for Eat Healthy Live Healthy, an online resource that helps you lead a more healthy life. It covers many topics, including nutrient density.\nPrevious PostPrevious Cisco Small Business SG300-28 Switch \u2013 SRW2024-K9\nNext PostNext CNC Router Machine",

Judd was the first high-profile figure to come forward with her story.\n\u201cShe came over and sat down and took my hand and said, \u2018Mama, I need your opinion.\u2019 She said, \u2018I\u2019m thinking of writing an article. Maybe I\u2019ll give it to The New York Times about Harvey Weinstein,'\" the elder Judd explains about what Ashley said to her. \"She said, \u2018You do remember everything.\u2019 I said, \u2018I remember everything.'\u201d\nJudd had confided in her mother years ago after an incident occurred in 1997 when Weinstein invited the young actress up to his hotel room for a breakfast meeting where he answered the door in his robe and asked her to watch him shower. Ashley immediately told her mother what happened.\n\u201cRight afterwards. She called and said, \u2018You\u2019re not going to believe what happened. Of course, I was so furious that something like that could happen to my kid and so furious about him,\" Judd says of her reaction to the upsetting situation. \"I knew immediately. I said, \u2018I\u2019m going to go out there and cut off his penis.'\"\nAshley attributes her strength in coming forward with her story to the support she received from her mother. \u201cMy mom gave me the encouragement to do this. She said, \u2018Honey, go get \u2019em.\u2019 She didn\u2019t say it with aggression,\" Ashley tells Access Hollywood.\nThe actress is featured on the cover of Time's 2017 Person of the Year issue, alongside Taylor Swift, with the publication naming Silence Breakers as the most influential figures in 2017.\nSource: Naomi Judd Shares Her Reaction to Daughter Ashley\u2019s Harvey Weinstein Allegations\nFiled Under: Naomi Judd",

        "raw_content": "Unlike the past people in the present don\u2019t have enough time to spend in gambling houses due to the busy life schedule they are fit in to. But with the emergence of online virtual gambling people are given the opportunity of enjoying online poker, progressive pokies, sports betting and other casino games. This is a new trend that has developed in the recent past and certainly lured and allured the hearts of gamblers, especially for those who hardly find time going to physical gambling houses. It is just a matter of logging on to your computer and going online.\nThere are various virtual gambling sites available in the internet that includes a wide variety of gambling games to choose from, you get the freedom to play games and bet online at any location at the time you want. As the online systems are updated with the latest versions of gambling games, technology and trustworthy software, there is no need to worry about the security and trust, for these gambling sites operate in a strictly personal environment which communicates with the user and the site.\nBrick and mortar gambling houses are quite expensive compared to virtual gambling; for instance, the expense you incur on gambling at Las Vegas includes a share that belongs to the house, rentals, maintenance, employee salaries and other overheads. But there are no such things when you visit an online gambling site, instead you are rewarded with an existing bonus worth hundreds and thousands of dollars for just signing up using casino bonus codes, and this is one of the main reasons to attract many online users. You also get the opportunity of learning and practicing new skills and even learning new strategies of gambling, these gambling sites are up to date and notify you regarding special tournaments, latest news and tips. These incentives merely give the impression of how the world of gambling has changed.\nOnline poker is a popular way of gambling in recent years, it is estimated that approximately 500,000 Americans take part in online poker every year, which yet continues with a rapid increase. Rather playing against the house, online users play against people and professionals ought to profit over the long term through online poker. But there is less opportunity to earn that much of profit when it comes to land gambling because houses profit on the money of players.\nOnline gambling enables users to choose from a wide variety of games and take part in tournaments real time, the online industry of gambling has certainly overcome profit earned by land gambling and now has been one of the famous modes of entertainment and earning. Another reason for its popularity is the high pay out rate offered to players; land gambling cannot afford high pay outs due to the additional expenditure incurred.\nSeveral online gambling sites are available in the internet which is not hard to find, most websites research for the best ones and direct people to the reputable gambling sites.",

        "title": "xymphora: Intervention in Sudan?",
        "raw_content": "From an article on the conflict in Sudan by Christopher Lord:\n\"'Fears are rising that if American evangelicals continue to focus exclusively on the religious dimensions of the Sudanese war, there could be a backlash from Islamic fundamentalists, thus intensifying the conflict,' wrote Matthias Muindi of Africa News in May 2001. 'Analysts, mainstream Church officials, and aid workers are worried that the stance taken by the Christian Right might jeopardize relief operations and precipitate a humanitarian crisis in Sudan.'\nThis is a pretty good description of what's happened over the last three years.\"\nIt's no big surprise that the evangelicals would make things worse by imposing their view of the world on another people. There is good reason to believe that their campaign to free slaves in Africa by buying their freedom has created whatever slave trade exists in Africa.\nLord goes on:\n\"The Janjaweed talk of jihad and racial superiority. This kind of talk has helped give rise to oversimplification number three among foreign observers: that it is all about a racial division.\nTake a look at pictures of the Janjaweed, and you will see that in large part they are as black as the 'blacks' they're murdering. 'Arab' in Sudan is mainly a cultural identity, meaning 'Arabic-speaking.' With as many as 134 languages and 497 ethnic sub-groups catalogued in the country, there is a wide spectrum of ethnic identities available, including many Arabized groups that only recently switched from a traditional language to Arabic. In America, the idea that the population is neatly divided into two racial groups - blacks and Arabs - has taken root in people's minds. It's a useful and easy distinction - but it's not true.\"\nAgain, the problem is caused by Americans imposing an American view based on American experience to a different context. American evangelicals have successfully managed to have the U. S. government label the conflict as 'genocide', a very misleading term in the circumstances.\nHere is the best part of Lord's excellent article:\n\"The root cause of the Darfur conflict is actually ecological, with prolonged droughts and rapid desertification driving poor pastoral 'Arabs' to take over the lands of even poorer settled 'black' farmers. With extensive damage to the ecology throughout the region, what we see as ethnic conflict is really resource conflict at root, with religion even further down the list of factors.\nKhartoum has denounced the Janjaweed in public, with President Omer al-Bashir calling them 'thieves and gangsters.' A few unlucky recruits have been sentenced to amputations for theft and some have even been threatened with crucifixion, but this month Human Rights Watch published documents proving that it is Khartoum that has raised, armed and directed them all along.\nIt's a pattern seen elsewhere in Sudan in recent years. Rich merchants in Khartoum - often retired generals or civil servants - pay desperate nomads in the interior to do their dirty work. They pretend that the motives are Arab solidarity, religious fervor or vengeance for historical wrongs. Once the land has been cleared, the paid thugs are amazed to discover that the new owners are their military patrons - and that they are still poor.\"\nSame old, same old. The rich stir up ethnic or religious passions to manipulate the poor to attack each other for the benefit of the rich. This is the same thing the Republicans have managed to do so well in the United States. For the connections between ecology and conflict generally, see the work of Thomas Homer-Dixon (see here and here), and for ecology and Sudan, see here.\nSo what is to be done? Some are gung-ho to send in the western calvary to rescue the poor victims of Sudan (see here and here and here and here). Other are afraid that foreign intervention is just another ruse for western colonialism. In particular, many see this as some kind of western oil grab, and possibly part of an oil fight between Chinese and Anglo-American interests.\nFrankly, if westerners with even the worst thieving motives were able to save the lives of the people of Darfur, I'd be fully in favor of sending them in. But this won't be a force consisting of troops from Norway and New Zealand. No, it will be the Gruesome Twosome yet again, the Americans and the British. After the disasters of Kosovo, Afghanistan, Haiti and particularly Iraq, can anyone hold any hope that these monsters will make anyone's life any better? Lessons of recent history tell us that a few local rich opportunists will do very well, a lot of people will be killed, most of them innocent civilians, and everyone else will end up much worse off. There will be a few photo ops of smiling locals with American troops, but once the strategic assets are secured, the suffering masses will be abandoned to the same suffering. I have no theoretical problem with a proper international force intervening to stop acute cases of suffering or violence, but I think we can be certain that the kind of intervention that Sudan will actually get will make things much worse.\nWeedlet said...\nI really enjoyed the content on your blog about substance abuse will be back very frequently! I actually have my own substance abuse exposed blog with all kinds of stuff in it. You?re welcome to com by",

        "title": "Why Saudi Arabia can\u2019t ban women from driving forever",
        "raw_content": "Why Saudi Arabia can\u2019t ban women from driving forever\nOctober 25, 2013 by yalibnan 6 Comments\nThere\u2019s something extraordinary happening in Saudi Arabia right now. I should know \u2014 you see, I was born there, lived there half my life, speak the language and understand the customs. Lately, I\u2019m both amazed at and humbled by what I\u2019m seeing: Extremely brave Saudi women, more driven than ever to change their society, despite the sad fact that they still aren\u2019t allowed to drive.\nAnd while it\u2019s true there\u2019s no formal law that bans females from getting behind the wheel in the ultra-conservative kingdom, it is also by no means a stretch to say they are, indeed, prohibited from doing so. Unfortunately, that\u2019s just the way it\u2019s always been in a society where religious edicts are often interpreted to mean it is illegal for women to drive.\nI\u2019ve reported on this subject for years and must admit, it\u2019s a personal one for me. Some of my earliest memories entail trying to figure out why my American mother would always drive me around Oklahoma City, where we spent our summers, but could never take me around Jeddah, where we lived the rest of the year.\nTo be honest, I only began pondering that mystery at the age of four on the days when my Saudi father was out of town on business, our driver was off, and I wanted ice cream. In the U.S., it was easy for my mom and I to hop in her car and go grab a banana split. What I wanted to know was why it was such a big deal in Saudi Arabia. Now, as a new online campaign urging Saudi women to defy their country\u2019s driving ban kicks into high gear, I find myself reflecting on how much the issue has impacted my life.\nMuch of it goes back to one brutally hot afternoon when I was 6 years old, living in Jeddah, playing in the front yard \u2014 completely startled seeing my 15-year-old neighbor sneaking out of her house dressed like her Saudi father. She wasn\u2019t just wearing his clothes, she\u2019d drawn a moustache on her face and was hoisting his car keys too.\nHer mission was simple but dangerous: Take her dad\u2019s car for a spin around the neighborhood as he napped. In any other country, a simple act of rebellion. In Saudi Arabia, one that can, and has, gotten women arrested.\nA few days ago, as we were filming our latest report on the women\u2019s driving campaign, I asked prominent Saudi journalist Buthaina Al-Nasr if she\u2019d ever done anything similar.\nLaughing at the memory, she admitted how, once, at the age of 14, she\u2019d borrowed her older brother\u2019s car and taken it for a spin around the farm, far from the traffic of the city and any of its police.\nButhaina went on, describing how much she and her female friends longed to drive cars. She explained how they also wanted to ride bikes, or even just simply walk around \u201cfreely\u201d \u2013 other activities for which Saudi women can face severe disapproval. There was really only one solution.\n\u201cWe\u2019d dress up like men,\u201d explained Buthaina, \u201clike boys, and we\u2019d go around and it felt fun.\u201d\nHer anecdote made me smile even as it struck me as terribly sad. You see, \u201cfun\u201d is something that many of my female Saudi relatives told me over and over again they needed a lot more of.\nIt was the main reason my neighbor took her dad\u2019s car for that joyride \u2014 which she\u2019d been able to do without getting caught. To me, seeing how absolutely exhilarating the experience had been for her, she\u2019d become a hero. A couple of days later, I asked her when she\u2019d do it again. A funny look appeared on her face.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know. I\u2019m not sure what the point is,\u201d she told me. \u201cIt\u2019ll just make me want to keep driving more and more. I shouldn\u2019t want that.\u201d\nIt took me a long time to finally understand. She\u2019d had a small but wonderful taste of fun and freedom, one she felt most Saudi women would never get. That made it hard to deal with, harder still for her to do it again. For her, it ended up being more bitter than sweet.\nIn Saudi Arabia, women aren\u2019t simply kept from obtaining drivers\u2019 licenses. No, they must contend with many more restrictions. The country\u2019s mandatory guardianship system means women cannot legally be responsible for their own affairs. As such, a growing number of voices, both male and female, are calling for those laws to be repealed.\n\u201cThere is a group of ultraconservatives here who will try to do anything and everything to prevent women from exercising their rights,\u201d Al-Alami told me. \u201cBe it driving, going to school, working, traveling for that matter, receiving medical care. Many men that I know, we feel that it is crucial for us to support women who do this.\u201d\nDuring my formative years, I was lucky \u2014 I got to spend lots of time with very strong, independent, assertive women. My American mother, Saudi aunts and female cousins \u2013 they discussed women\u2019s rights all the time. I listened to countless conversations where it was decided how it would be impossible for Saudi Arabia to forever bar women from driving.\nThey said the reasons were numerous: that it didn\u2019t make sense economically; that it was too much of a burden on families to hire drivers; that Saudi society was advancing.\nAnd then there was the horror story recounted by my aunt about the woman who lived down the street from her \u2014 the woman whose husband was at work, whose driver was running an errand, whose child had been injured. There was no way for her to get him to the hospital in time.\nThe laws will have to change, they\u2019d say. In five to 10 years, they insisted, women would, no doubt, be allowed to drive. I first heard that refrain 33 years ago, in 1980, before my parents and I moved to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia\u2019s capital.\nI\u2019ve been hearing it ever since. It wasn\u2019t until 1991 that I thought the time might have finally come. That\u2019s when 47 women protested the prohibition by driving through the streets of Riyadh. It was scandalous \u2014 dozens of the women were detained, banned from travel and suspended from their workplaces.\nA second ray of hope appeared in May 2011, when prominent women\u2019s rights activist Manal Al-Sharif uploaded to YouTube a video of herself driving in Saudi Arabia. As a result, she spent nine days in jail. But on June 17, dozens of women across Saudi Arabia, emboldened and inspired by her ordeal, went ahead, risked punishment and participated in the \u201cWomen2Drive\u201d campaign \u2014 they didn\u2019t just drive around, they also filmed and uploaded videos of themselves doing so. Still the laws did not change.\nAnd now, the latest iteration is at hand. The October 26 Women\u2019s Driving Campaign has so far garnered more than 16,000 signatures on its online petition, but as it turns out, women aren\u2019t waiting until October 26. Many have already gone out, taken videos, posted them online. It\u2019s incredible to see.\nButhaina Al-Nasr is an active supporter of the campaign. She lives in Lebanon now but talked to me at length about why the Saudi government needs to finally lift the ban \u2014 after all, it is the last country in the world that does not allow women to drive.\nAfter driving her eight-year-old son Hisham to school, she told me a bit more about how much she\u2019d love to be able to do the same in Saudi Arabia. She then shared a recurring daydream she has about being able to drive a car in her home country while wearing a dress \u2014 not while dressed up like her father or brother.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a silly daydream,\u201d she told me, \u201cbut that\u2019s a fact. It\u2019s the reality of my society.\u201d\nThen she added, \u201cI mean the daydream of a young girl should be how to get to the moon \u2026 Not driving a car.\u201d\nWhat about the fragile ovaries? We must think of the ovaries!\nAh yes \u2026 and I\u2019m sure there could be other reasons from the religio-medical-research pros too.\nThey \u2018should\u2019 be able to find something \u2026 even if they never looked under the black sheets. :-)))\nthese strict men are nothing but lunatic and crazy. its time for women freedom in Saudi Arabia.

        "raw_content": "Post subject: Well, well, well.\nFrom here. I'll try to run down a more solid source.\nBREAKING NEWS -- Divided three-judge D.C. Circuit panel holds that the District of Columbia's gun control laws violate individuals' Second Amendment rights: You can access today's lengthy D.C. Circuit ruling at this link.\nAccording to the majority opinion, \"[T]he phrase 'the right of the people,' when read intratextually and in light of Supreme Court precedent, leads us to conclude that the right in question is individual.\" The majority opinion sums up its holding on this point as follows:\nTo summarize, we conclude that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms. That right existed prior to the formation of the new government under the Constitution and was premised on the private use of arms for activities such as hunting and self-defense, the latter being understood as resistance to either private lawlessness or the depredations of a tyrannical government (or a threat from abroad). In addition, the right to keep and bear arms had the important and salutary civic purpose of helping to preserve the citizen militia. The civic purpose was also a political expedient for the Federalists in the First Congress as it served, in part, to placate their Antifederalist opponents. The individual right facilitated militia service by ensuring that citizens would not be barred from keeping the arms they would need when called forth for militia duty. Despite the importance of the Second Amendment's civic purpose, however, the activities it protects are not limited to militia service, nor is an individual's enjoyment of the right contingent upon his or her continued or intermittent enrollment in the militia.\nThe majority opinion also rejects the argument that the Second Amendment does not apply to the District of Columbia because it is not a State. And the majority opinion concludes, \"Section 7-2507.02, like the bar on carrying a pistol within the home, amounts to a complete prohibition on the lawful use of handguns for self-defense. As such, we hold it unconstitutional.\"\nSenior Circuit Judge Laurence H. Silberman wrote the majority opinion, in which Circuit Judge Thomas B. Griffith joined. Circuit Judge Karen LeCraft Henderson dissented.\nJudge Henderson's dissenting opinion makes clear that she would conclude that the Second Amendment does not bestow an individual right based on what she considers to be binding U.S. Supreme Court precedent requiring that result. But her other main point is that the majority's assertion to the contrary constitutes nothing more than dicta because the Second Amendment's protections, whatever they entail, do not extend to the District of Columbia, because it is not a State.\nThis is a fascinating and groundbreaking ruling that would appear to be a likely candidate for U.S. Supreme Court review if not overturned first by the en banc D.C. Circuit.\nUpdate: \"InstaPundit\" notes the ruling in this post linking to additional background on the Second Amendment. And at \"The Volokh Conspiracy,\" Eugene Volokh has posts titled \"Timetable on Supreme Court Review of the Second Amendment Case, and the Presidential Election\" and \"D.C. Circuit Accepts Individual Rights View of the Second Amendment,\" while Orin Kerr has a post titled \"DC Circuit Strikes Down DC Gun Law Under the 2nd Amendment.\"\nEdit: [url=http://www.breitbart.com/news/2007/03/09/D8NOSR480.html\\]Better source.[/url]\nOoooh, I hope this holds up. If it does, we'll be doing better. Even if all that happens is they start having to drop bans on weaponry produced _in_ a state (They can regulate interstate commerce, for example), it would be a bonus. Although the Mormons in Utah would have a big advantage\nThe question was specifically about the D.C. law, which bans ALL arms, not specific kinds of weapons or even just all firearms. It's also about as useful as a choclate teakettle.\nIt's also about as useful as a choclate teakettle.\nNo. It has much more far-reaching implications, should this go to the Supreme Court; namely, that the Court could once and for all define the Second Amendment as an individual right, and silence the bullshit about it only \"applying to the National Guard.\"\nI hope they end up re-evaluating US vs Miller 1939.\nActually, the Circuit Court determined that it WAS an individual right. If the Supreme Court refuses to hear it, the ruling stands, and it becomes a FIRM precedent. If they hear it, they're going to have to fight REALLY hard against all the research done by the lower court to twist it to a new meaning.\nJust flipping through, I meant that the D.C. law was useless as there is nothing keeping you from carring in VA or MD and as such, nothing really keeping anyone from having a gun in the greater D.C. area. D.C. proper is less that ten miles square but bedroom communities for D.C. stretch from Richmond to Baltimore.\nHere's the transcript of the March 18th hearing.\nDellinger put his foot in his mouth a couple of times, that's for sure.\nI can't say that the Justices were 100% on the 'Right to keep and bear arms' with the 'shall not be abridged' part, but they didn't seem terribly friendly to the idea of a total ban.\nhttp://www.supremecourtus.gov/oral_argu ... 07-290.pdf\nPost subject: Re: Well, well, well.\nThe next step will be declaring the 1934 National Firearms Act unconstitutional, and thus nullifying US vs Miller 1939, as well as all other gun laws that depend on the 1934 NFA.\nDon't count on it. The next Congress as well as the next President are likely to be very unfriendly to gun owners. The next couple of Supreme Court appointments, as well.",

        "raw_content": "Why does almost every single website nowadays depend on MySQL databases? How do the aforementioned function?\nMySQL is among the most commonly used database control systems in existence. A database is a set of cells with information which are structured in tables and the management system is the piece of software which links the data to a script application. As an illustration, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars etc within a database and every time a visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and \u201ccalls\u201d the content that should be shown on a specific page. MySQL is extremely popular due to its superb efficiency, simplicity of use and the fact that it can operate with many popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic websites that are built with a script-driven application need some type of database and some of the most widely used ones like Joomla\u2122, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.\nThe in-house built Hepsia Control Panel included with our shared hosting plans will enable you to manage all your MySQL databases effortlessly. It takes only a few mouse clicks to set up a completely new database and with just one more click you could back it up if you would like to have a copy before you update your website, for instance. You'll be able to change the password, remove a database or enable remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you'll be able to opt for the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely to make sure that unauthorized people shall not be able to access your information. If you wish to view the database content or modify any cell or table from the CP, you may use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven applications shall also be super easy as our script installer will create a database for the script you have selected automatically.\nYou will be able to use any script that requires MySQL with each of our semi-dedicated hosting plans since we have the most current version set up on all web servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to easily create or delete a database, modify its password, back it up with just a single click or check out the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you'd like to manage the content of a database directly, not via a script, you shall have 2 options - either employing the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available inside the Control Panel, or using an application installed on your personal computer as we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you'll need to add your IP address via the web hosting account first as an added level of safety against unauthorized access to your data.",

        "raw_content": "Posted in: Connect with Your Audience, Public Speaking Mistakes, Public Speaking Skills\nImagine this: You\u2019ve just left a presentation that inspired and motivated you. The speaker made you laugh one minute, and then see connections the next. You got ideas, tips, enjoyed relevant stories and examples, a great handout, and a message that inspired you. And most importantly, the speaker seemed to talk directly to you and your needs. It was almost as if you and the speaker shared similar life experiences and values. As you leave, you are grateful that you decided to attend the presentation and promise yourself to take action based on what you learned. You\u2019ve been thoroughly impressed by the \u201cIt\u2019s All About You\u201d speaker, and wish that all speakers could be like that. What a valuable use of your time it was!\nAnd now, imagine this: You\u2019re sitting in an audience about to listen to a speaker tell [what you hope] is an inspirational story about how they became so successful. Perhaps you\u2019ll be able to learn some valuable lessons that you can apply to your current situation. The speaker starts with a long, text-heavy PowerPoint slide that lists their credentials and qualifications, complete with fancy initials that follow their name. They boast about their accomplishments, their awards, their rock-solid work ethic, and how many businesses and fancy cars they had by the time they were 18 years old. You wait and hope that they will share something of value \u2014 something that isn\u2019t purely about THEM \u2014 that shows that they care about what their audience gets out of the presentation. But\u2026 nothing. The conclusion goes something like: \u201cI\u2019m so busy and successful, you would have to stand in line if you wanted to work with me.\u201d Ah, well. The \u201cIt\u2019s All About Me\u201d speaker just stole away an hour of your life that you\u2019ll never get back.\nIt\u2019s Not About You\u2026Really!\nIt\u2019s not too hard to see that the first speaker wins praise for being attuned to her audience\u2019s needs. Before speaking, she has researched who they are, why they\u2019re there, and what they expect to hear. She delivers valuable content that\u2019s geared directly to them. The second speaker, however, is not attuned at all. She aims to impress her audience by listing her qualifications and credentials, but what she doesn\u2019t realize is that her audience is filled with intelligent and accomplished people who are hoping to learn something new and interesting from her. With her self-focused content and inability to provide anything of value to the audience, she simply ends up alienating and frustrating them.\nHere\u2019s the reality: People care about themselves and how to solve their problems. So to get them to appreciate your message, the speech should be about the audience and their needs. As a speaker, you must resist the urge to focus on talking about your products and services, and what makes you the best person for the job.\nA composed, prepared, information-rich presentation will go a lot farther in showcasing your expertise than listing your qualifications, credentials, and experience. Even if you\u2019re asked to speak about your company or your products, make it about your customers or the problems you solve instead. Provide them with valuable content \u2014 and they are a lot more likely to provide you with their appreciation, their recommendation, and their business.\nSuzannah Baum, owner of Ideal Communications, is a public speaking trainer, presentation coach and writer who believes that everyone can be an exceptional communicator.

        "raw_content": "Neon and gold: signage trends beyond the screen\nThink about the storefronts of a 20th century metropolis or a 19th century frontier main street, and even if you\u2019re a branding fanatic like us, it\u2019s probably not a sea of typefaces that comes to mind \u2013 rather, it is the physical presence of the signage, whether in steel, paint or light. Just have a look at these old neon fixtures for a nostalgic rush:\nIt seems to be a rule of spectacle culture that what goes around comes back around. Neon experienced a vogue in the mid 20th century, followed by a decline in which it was considered vulgar, and now is making a major comeback as a chic branding statement. Gold leaf window lettering tells a similar story.\nHere is what the trendier storefronts are looking like today \u2013 something to keep in mind as you devise branding for restaurants, coffee shops, bars, clothing stores, barbers and other such trappings of the modern yuppie:\nWhat do you think \u2013 are these trends here to stay?",

        "raw_content": "Is there too much \u201cinnovation\u201d in development?\nA friend of mine \u2013 let\u2019s call him Bobby \u2013 recently asked me for help on a bid he was writing which needed to include \u201cinnovative approaches\u201d. Bobby expressed a clear dislike for the Developmentspeak term \u201cinnovation\u201d. For Bobby, the term is just a fad.\nSo do I agree with Bobby?\nThe term \u201cinnovation\u201d has become a popular buzzword in the development sector. There are plenty of examples, from USAID\u2019s Development Innovation Ventures, to UNICEF\u2019s Innovation Unit. The Guardian featured \u201c12 days of innovations\u201d over Christmas in 2013, profiling \u201ceye-catching innovations in development\u201d.\nI do see some advantages to an emphasis on innovation. Calling for programmes to be more \u201cinnovative\u201d encourages them to experiment more and try different solutions. This could generate unique ideas and new ways of approaching problems \u2013 just take a look at TechChange, Commcare, or FrontlineSMS.\nHowever, many \u2018innovations\u2019 don\u2019t actually contribute anything new, or do anything different. For example, I don\u2019t see how telemedicine \u2013 using telecommunication and ICT to provide care at a distance \u2013 can today be seen as an innovation. Allowing patients to speak to health professionals over the phone came about in the UK in 1998 with NHS Direct!\nFurthermore, there is a proliferation of pilots across the globe that are not being scaled up. A good example is mHealth, using mobile technology to help improve health. In 2008 and 2009 Uganda had 23 mHealth initiatives that did not scale up after they were piloted because the initial funding had dried up (see image below). It has reached the extent that some criticise the situation as a \u201cpilotitis; a term used to describe a scenario where many NGOs are funded for relatively similar, but isolated, pilot projects, resulting in no resources left for scaling them up.\nMap of Mhealth Pilots in Uganda. Source: Sean Blaschke, Technology for Development Specialist at UNICEF Uganda\nThe problem with \u201cpilotitus\u201d is that a lot of money is being wasted on these projects and the government has no idea what\u2019s going on. In Uganda, it led to a moratorium on all mHealth projects being issued by the government.\nWhat\u2019s more, mHealth \u201cinnovations\u201d have rarely been well monitored and rigorously evaluated. We need to ensure that monitoring and evaluation is taking place so that we know what\u2019s going on and what works. This will (hopefully) mean that we can learn for future projects and reduce the risk of re-inventing the wheel.\nSo I ask myself again, do I agree with Bobby\u2019s scepticism about innovation?\nEncouraging innovations has led to great advancements and saved lives. I believe we should still encourage it, but always ensure that frameworks are in place to effectively monitor and evaluate these programmes\u2019 progress. What do you think? Are innovations in the aid sector worth it?\n\u2190 What does it really mean to work on the ebola response\nShould the children of Liberia be in school? \u2192\n4 thoughts on \u201cIs there too much \u201cinnovation\u201d in development?\u201d\nRowan Emslie (@RowanEmslie)\nAny industry needs to encourage innovation. Industries with as many failed or problematic practices, organisations and projects as the development industry could certainly use innovation \u2013 not just to create better projects, but to reshape the way actors go about tackling development.\nThat being said, I think your point that this can lead to a lot of wasted money if proper M&E isn\u2019t put in place. I would also add that proper planning and an understanding of how long the ROI on innovation is likely to be also need to be given more credence.\nMary Astra\nOne needs to be innately suspicious of efforts to put \u201cmoratoria\u201d on innovation, especially in highly corrupt environments like Uganda. The moratorium is in fact a way to allow the Ugandan Ministry of Health to force donors to channel resources through it at a time when donors are beating a hasty retreat from direct funding (this after the prime minister\u2019s office was implicated in several scandals involving donor money). Many promising investments by donors such as mTRAC which is implemented through the MOH have yet to prove their value after several years, which is why you won\u2019t find any rigorous evaluations taking place anytime soon. Pilotitis is bad in a country like Rwanda with a clean efficient government, but i a country like Uganda, it at least offers a chance to donors to fund innovation that can then be handed over to civil society to implement, without getting entangled in corruption shenanigans.\nStarting around 2011, at the cost of well over $5 million, UNICEF and the Ministry of Health of Uganda rolled out a text message system called mTRAC. From day one, it was launched with the nebulous claims that it was \u201cchanging lives\u201d, \u201csaving lives\u201d, \u201creducing drug stock-outs\u201d, \u201cincreasing accountability\u201d, etc. mTRAC would fall very severely short of any serious positive impact. Looking back, it was laughable that anyone should have thought they could reduce the complexity of clinical care and supply chain management to more or less, random text messages. UNICEF and the Ministry of Health of Uganda have not published a critical review of its multi-million US Dollar splurge but neither has the duo continued to sing the praises of mTRAC.\nOn the device front, a smart phone app has been presented to none other than the President of the Republic of Uganda, His Excellency Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. The Matibabu Windows mobile app has won international acclaim at the Microsoft Windows competitions.\nAccording to one of the developers, \u201c\u2026.The Matibabu app uses red light to determine the state of the red blood cells to determine one\u2019s malaria status.\u201d That assertion is either truly ground-breaking technology worthy of The Nature magazine or it is outright pseudoscience.\nBeyond any debate however, there are very basic tools known to modern science that can and must be used to assess the viability of eHealth innovations. These include Laboratory Efficacy Studies and Randomised Control Trials. Even before these methods, there is good old common sense to call upon. The Winsenga system, another celebrated Ugandan innovation, which consists of a Windows Smartphone attached to a microphone is designed to analyse and record the heart beat of a fetus and to save lives. It is not quite clear how the saving of lives is achieved by this app. Be that as it may, all Ugandan midwives are trained to use a plastic tube (that costs probably next to nothing) to listen to fetal hearts. There is no study to show that the Winsenga system is superior or even equal to the traditional, plastic fetoscope.\nThe developers who have innovated these products that may never be of any real value to the world of medicine are no doubt, brilliant. The software companies that encourage and reward them for using their platforms are doing what any reasonable corporation would do.\nI am a medical doctor and technology evangelist. My call is by no means for a cessation of investment in health technologies, but rather for the ministries of Health and International NGO\u2019s such as UNICEF and WHO to embrace time-honored practices that allow smart solutions to answer intelligent, medically insightful questions. The apparent, unscientific, free-for-all foray into the development of eHealth/mHealth innovations is wasteful and must stop.\nThis article potentially raises points of contention that I am more than eager to debate to a reasonable conclusion with the parties concerned.\nDr Edem Rukundo, FCS (ECSA)\nedemrukundo@gmail.com",

        "raw_content": "Pampa, TX is a small town about 40 minutes to the northeast of Amarillo at the intersection of Highway 60/152 and Highway 70. Commuting from Pampa to Amarillo is easy because of the wide open highways and lack of traffic. Many people in Pampa work at the local chemical factory, in the oil industry or on local ranches, but those who choose to commute you have an easy time without the worry of gridlocks and traffic jams. The Pampa area has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state and is known for its safe streets and excellent schools.\nOne of the things we like about Pampa is the low cost of housing. Houses in Pampa average less than half of the rest of the state with an average price of $62,424 as compared to $125,800 for other Texas communities. The area to the Northwest of town near the Pampa Regional Medical Center has the newest construction and is considered one of the most desirable in the area, but there are safe neighborhoods all over Pampa. Rent is also affordable, with an apartment averaging $581. Although Pampa is considered a small town, there are plenty of apartments for rent in the area with plans to build new complexes on the Borger Highway.\nAnother thing to like about the Pampa area are the three top rated golf courses. The Pampa Country Club has one of the best rated 9 hole courses in the Panhandle. It also has a pool and restaurant for members. Each Labor Day the Top of Texas Amateur Tournament is held there. Pampa Country Club is located on East Harvester just East of town. Hidden Hills Municipal Golf Course is a public course and is also one of the top rated courses in the Panhandle. It is located in the heart of Pampa on Highway 70, and is a regulation 18 hole course built on two hills and is particularly challenging. Pamcel Golf Course is a regulation 9 hold course and has something for every skill level. Pamcel is open to the public and is located on the Celenese Plant Highway. All of these reasons are why Pampa is one of our favorite places in the Panhandle.",

        "raw_content": "Debbie--have you seen Jean Craighead George's THE TALKING EARTH?\nA librarian wrote to ask me about Jean Craighead George's The Talking Earth. Published in 1983 by HarperCollins, it is available in Spanish and Catalan. It is available as an audiobook, too. Most people who work in children's literature know that George's Julie of the Wolves won the Newbery Medal in 1972. Those of you who pay attention to depictions of Native people know that there is a lot wrong with Julie of the Wolves.\nI'll get a copy of The Talking Earth at the library. From what I see online, I anticipate there will be many problems with it, too. Elders who cross their arms when they speak to kids? Elders who sit cross legged on the ground? Not ok.\nIn the opening pages, the main character sees her grandfather's medicine bundle. I doubt that a Seminole writer would have that whole section in there. There are some things that are not shared with the public...\nAnd the names! The main character is Billy Wind. Her sister is Mary Wind. Her father is Iron Wind. Her mother is Whispering Wind. Her grandfather is Charlie Wind.\nThere's some parts that display an outsider's writing, like when Billy and Mary walk to the dugout (p. 10):\nIt was tied beside the airboat, a flat boat with a motorized fan that \"blew\" passengers across the saw grass in the watery prairie the Indians called the pa-hay-okee.\nThose are supposed to be Billy's thoughts but that sounds more like George herself, an outsider. Honestly, I don't want to read this book.\nLabels: Debbie--have you seen, Jean Craighead George, Pub year 1983, The Talking Earth\nI haven't read 'The Talking Earth', but it reminded me of Julie of the Wolves... as a very young child, it was one of the books that was read to us at school, and I remember loving all the parts with the wolves themselves. As an adult, I thought it might be fun to reread it, and oh... I was so disappointed. I couldn't get through a re-read, so much was wrong that I hadn't remembered (and probably hadn't paid attention to at the time)",

You are everything to me, O God, and Your holy will is my nourishment. I am living now on what I will live on in eternity.\nI have great reverence for St. Michael the Archangel; he had no example to follow in doing the will of God, and yet he fulfilled God\u2019s will faithfully.\nSaint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.\nTagged Catholic, Cross, Daily Reflection, Divine Mercy, God, Illness, Jesus, meditation, Prayer, sacrifice, Spiritual, St. Faustina, suffering\nSeptember 17 St. Robert Bellarmine\nAs I continued Vespers, meditating on the mixture of suffering and grace, I heard the voice of Our Lady: Know My daughter, that although I was raised to the dignity of Mother of God, seven swords of pain pierced My heart. Don\u2019t do anything to defend yourself; bear everything with humility; God Himself will defend you.\nAugust 31 Sts. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus\nPosted on August 31, 2018 by afmpost in Catholic, Christian, Daily Reflection, Illness, Prayer, suffering, Uncategorized\nToday, during Mass, I saw the Lord Jesus in the midst of His sufferings, as though dying on the cross. He said to me, My daughter, meditate frequently on the sufferings which I have undergone for your sake, and then nothing of what you suffer for Me will seem great to you. You please me most when you meditate on My Sorrowful Passion. Join your little sufferings to My Sorrowful Passion, so that they may have infinite value before My Majesty.\nAugust 29 Martyrdom of St. John the Baptist\nThis is a martyrdom beyond description. God imparts Himself to the soul in a loving way and draws it into the infinite depths of His divinity, but at the same time He leaves it here on earth for the sole purpose that it might suffer and die of longing for Him. And this strong love is so pure that God Himself finds pleasure in it; and self-love has no access to its deeds, for here everything is totally saturated with bitterness, and thus is totally pure. Life is a continuous dying, painful and terrible, and at the same time it is the depth of true life and of inconceivable happiness and the strength of the soul; and because of this, [the soul] is capable of great deeds for the sake of God.",

A descriptive cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted on 600 students selected by cluster sampling. Students had a moderate level of HIV/AIDS knowledge [\u200ean average of 67.6% were correct on all items]\u200e. Nevertheless, 82.3% knew that HIV could be transmitted by sexual intercourse without a condom, 87.5% from syringes, 71.8% from infected blood and 80.7% from mother to child. Misconceptions about how HIV is transmitted [\u200ee.g. hugging and kissing or sharing food, swimming pools and classrooms)\u200e were found among 41.5% of the students. Attitudes towards people living with HIV/AIDS showed that 59.8% of students were accepting and positive. There was a common opinion among respondents that HIV-infected persons needed to be punished [\u200e65.5%]\u200e and isolated [\u200e41.0%]\u200e; however, 86.8% were willing to care for an HIV-infected person\nAl Rabeei, N.A., Dallak, A.M. & Al Awadi, F.G.

        "raw_content": "Hear From Our Fabulous Franchisees\nI started the store four years ago with the idea of having moms and daughters come shopping together to have a wonderful experience, and it still holds true today. We also see grandma tagging along! We donate to charities, we offer summer fashion camp, and we work with girls and their high schools to teach them about fashion. I do want to mention that I do love being part of the franchise. They offer buying tools, the vendor discounts are wonderful, we have monthly conference calls where we can share and learn about each other\u2019s business because each store is unique and I do really enjoy being a part of that.\nCathy, Craig, and Allison Young\nApricot Lane gave us the opportunity to open our own small business while having the security of an experienced corporate structure behind us. Having the Apricot Lane name opened doors for us to be able to have a premier retail location and the opportunity to include some of the top brands into our inventory. One of our favorite things about Apricot Lane is that we are able to embrace what makes us unique and we hand select every item that comes into our store. Getting to work together as a family and experiencing our hard work together, is one of the greatest feelings there is!\nMy dream, since I was a little girl, has been to run/own MY fashion boutique!! So blessed to be with such a caring and empathetic company. I thank the long and hard work that Ken Peterson has done. He exemplifies the integrity of this company. Not to mention his belief in me. Words cannot explain how grateful we are. I also thank Terry Odneal for his patience and belief in Mike & me, always answering phone calls and emails. Always there!!! I thank Maryann for her patience and wise guidance. I thank Patrick Stewart for his time he spent with us on a great encouraging phone intervention (with Maryann), it encouraged us and helped us move forward. I thank Michael Levick! We could not have done this without his hard work, patience, and special guidance. He is a stellar attorney! I thank Steve McClurkin, who has been patient with me, and taught me the ins and outs and the \u201ccrazy\u201d of commercial real estate, and also has been very patient throughout this process. My goal is to be the highest producing store that will break all records. Lord \u2026\u2026please give me strength! Words cannot describe how blessed I feel with the AL team and the confidence that AL gives me to propel forward, to great goals for all of us! It is scary, but I know I can do this with my new family\u2026\u2026.Apricot Lane.\nCountry Visions is a wonderful franchise to be involved in. It\u2019s a franchise that allows you to own your own business but yet have the help and benefits and support of being involved in a franchise. You\u2019re allowed to purchase the merchandise that you want to carry in your store and also that your customers want. There are always bumps and stress and situations along the way of having your own business, but with Country Visions, there\u2019s always someone there to help you along the way. Overall, being a part of Apricot Lane has been a wonderful experience in my life!\nDiane Holtz\nCountry Vision had the team and systems in place to help me open the store and position the business for success. It has been a great collaboration through which I am able to utilize my strengths in merchandising, marketing, and visual together with Country Vision\u2019s operational expertise.\nI consider having an Apricot Lane franchise the best of both worlds: running my own business with autonomy but also having a team of professionals that can help me as needed. I also appreciate participating in monthly conference calls where Apricot Lane franchisees can exchange and discuss ideas and opportunities.\nThroughout the past seven years, I have watched my business grow exponentially and I thank the Country Vision team for providing an invaluable partnership.\nIt\u2019s been six years since we\u2019ve opened our first store. Prior to being an Apricot Lane franchisee, I was a Senior Retail Executive for 25+ years. The question I\u2019m most often asked is \u201cwhy with all your retail experience, would you want to be a part of a franchise?\u201d and the reasons are several; One would be meeting Ken. I knew that this was a culture that we would want to be a part of. Two, having come from a corporate environment, I knew that there was great power in being a part of a team. Also, Ken promised me and came through on this promise about flexibility, we get to buy what we want and we get the support of the team behind that. I knew that the name would come to be an important name in years to come and now with us approaching 100 stores, people come into our store and say they are familiar with Apricot Lane. Lastly, the power of being co-op, there are close to 100 stores out there, we get to share information, we get to use each other\u2019s information and we\u2019re far more powerful as a group than we would be as individuals. I thought that this would be a good decision and it turned out to be a great one!\nApricot Lane has been an incredible addition to our \u201csmall town\u201d downtown, in Independence Kansas. And the great folks at Apricot Lane made it easy! We purchased a rundown old building that had been sitting empty for years and made it truly beautiful with Apricot Lane\u2019s help. You have to see the \u201cbefore and after\u201d photos to really get a sense of the transformation\u2026I have been totally dependent on Apricot Lane \u201cholding my hand\u201d to walk me through the entire process.\nSET UP AN INTRODUCTORY CALL",

        "raw_content": "Destinations Oceania Travel Travel\nNew Zealand \u2013 Spring 2018 event highlights\nPosted By: levertonNew Zealand, sightseeing, spring travel, tourism\nSeptember through to November means springtime in New Zealand, a beautiful time to visit, with lots happening around the country.\nFood, festivals, frolics and frocks. New Zealanders celebrate the approach of the warmer months with a burst of energy and creativity, and in ways that are uniquely Kiwi.\nSpring in New Zealand puts a (ahem) spring in everyone\u2019s step. The outdoors beckon with new adventures and activities and road trips and throughout the country food lovers celebrate the fresh bounty of the season with festivals. Springtime is also a spur to creativity, whether in events that celebrate the past or imagine future possibilities.\nAll Blacks vs South Africa, Wellington\n2018 is a busy year as usual for New Zealand\u2019s mighty All Blacks rugby side, with visits by national teams from France, Australia, South Africa and Argentina, and a late-year tour that will take them to Tokyo, London, Dublin and Rome. One of the most eagerly anticipated matches is the All Blacks\u2019 encounter with a young and talented Springbok side in Wellington on 15 September. The South Africans lost to the All Blacks in Cape Town in 2017 by just a single point and will certainly be looking for a different result. Prepare for a physical game.\nAll Blacks Fixtures\nInternational Hobbit Day, Hobbiton Movie Set, Waikato\nFancy a pint of handcrafted ale and a feast where second helpings are encouraged? On Saturday 22 September at the world-famous Hobbiton Movie Set near the Waikato town of Matamata you can enjoy all that and more as Bilbo and Frodo Baggins\u2019s special day is celebrated in style.\nFestivities at the five-hectare (12-acre) site will include a guided tour at dusk and a specially created event and party marquee area with individually themed stalls offering traditional Hobbit fare. Guests will be entertained by roaming minstrels and at the Green Dragon Inn, where Hobbits traditionally gather to chatter about the day, the Hobbit Southfarthing range of traditional ales, apple cider and non-alcoholic ginger beer will be on tap and there will be prizes for best (Hobbit) dress on the night.\nIt has no narration, no explanation and needs none. The World of WearableArt is simply a two-hour tour de force of breathtaking costumes, choreography and music that crosses all language barriers and, as a judge of the event once put it, \"makes Lady Gaga look like a librarian\". Now in its 30th year, the spectacular annual stage show and design competition draws thousands of people to Wellington from across the globe.\nThis year\u2019s event season presents six \"worlds\" including Reflective Surfaces, Under the Microscope and Bizarre Bra (always an audience favourite). More than 60,000 attendees are expected to see the dreamlike and magical shows at TSB Arena where innovative designers from around the world vie for prizes including a four-week residency at Cirque du Soleil in Montr\u00e9al.\nThe World of WearableArt\nSCAPE Public Art Season, Christchurch\nFesta, Christchurch\nFor the last eight years, the people of Christchurch have been coming to terms with an environment that changed forever when an earthquake devastated large parts of their city in 2011. Amongst the many initiatives that are helping to rebuild and reimagine Christchurch, art is proving to be a powerful form of urban renewal. The springtime SCAPE Public Art Season offers free events, exhibitions and workshops as well as walking trails that showcase temporary and permanent artworks around the central city.\nThe biennial Festa public festival of architecture, design and food also returns to Christchurch with pop-up projects, family events, tours, live performances and artworks with a theme of food and city-making. The highlight will be a giant street festival on 20 October with plenty to eat and drink and installations that celebrate the city\u2019s post-disaster revival.\nDiwali Festival, Auckland\nDiwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is an ancient and important festival celebrated by Indian communities around the world. Auckland\u2019s annual two-day Diwali Festival, held in downtown Aotea Square, brings thousands of Aucklanders and visitors of all ages and ethnic backgrounds together to celebrate traditional and contemporary Indian culture. Highlights include local and international dance, music and theatre performers, food and craft stalls, a wedding expo, seminars and workshops. Wellington also celebrates Diwali on 28 October.\nAuckland Diwali Festival\nIf you like sightseeing and exercise, the ASB Auckland Marathon on Sunday 28 October 2018 is an excellent way to combine the two. The race route follows the shoreline of Auckland\u2019s beautiful harbour and the marathon, half-marathon and 12km traverse take runners over the Auckland Harbour Bridge \u2013 an experience in itself and illegal at all other times.\nOffering a range of distances (42km, 21km, 12km, 5km and a 2.2km kids\u2019 run), and concluding with a \"Party in the Park\" celebration, the ASB Auckland Marathon raises important funds for causes including mental health, cancer treatment and Auckland\u2019s Starship Children\u2019s Hospital. Fast gaining an international reputation, this colourful marathon is a great way to take in the spirit and diversity of New Zealand\u2019s largest city.\nThe New Zealand Cider Festival, Nelson\nThe New Zealand Cider Festival is back for its third year on November 3rd in Nelson, hot on the heels of a sold-out event in 2017. This year the organisers of the festival will showcase over 80 New Zealand cider varieties from all over the country. Set in the historic village of Founders Heritage Park in Nelson the Cider Festival is a celebration of diversity \u2013 whether that\u2019s ingredients, producers and consumers \u2013 there\u2019ll be a chance to sample both traditional and \u2018new world\u2019 varieties in a relaxed festival environment.\nNew Zealand Cider Festival\nTaste of Auckland 1-4 November\nFood and Wine Classic, Hawke\u2019s Bay, 2-11 November\nToast Martinborough, Wairarapa, 18 November\nA November road trip around the North Island can easily take in three big events on the New Zealand food calendar. The Taste of Auckland Festival at the start of the month serves up a cross-section of the best food and drink in the city including uniquely New Zealand culinary experiences such as hangi (food cooked in a M\u0101ori earth oven).\nThe spring edition of the Hawke\u2019s Bay Food and Wine Classic, aka FAWC! \u2013 there\u2019s also a winter FAWC! in June \u2013 is a chance to sample the inventive offerings of leading chefs, producers and purveyors in restaurants, wineries and pop-up venues across the Hawke\u2019s Bay region.\nAt Toast Martinborough, the entire province of Wairarapa, northeast of Wellington, takes part in a day of fine wine, cuisine and music in the open air. You will find yourself staying longer though because this beautiful part of the country studded with charming colonial-era small towns produces some of New Zealand\u2019s best pinot noir, aromatic white wines and dessert wines.\nToast! Martinborough\nOamaru Victorian F\u00eate, Oamaru\nThe town of Oamaru on the southeast coast of the South Island is a place where you can turn back time. Established at the height of Victorian-era expansionism, Oamaru once exported the products of its rich pastoral hinterland across the world, its prosperity reflected in grand commercial buildings made from locally quarried limestone.\nTimes change but thanks to the visionary efforts of a local civic trust, Oamaru has the finest collection of heritage-listed buildings in New Zealand. The Victorian Precinct, open for business year-round, hosts a week-long annual heritage celebration culminating in an old-fashioned f\u00eate. It\u2019s a fun day of contests, performances and eating and drinking with townspeople dressed in Victorian garb.\nVictorian Oamaru Fete\nPioneer Mountain Bike Stage Race, Central Otago\nThe hearts of mountain bikers around the world are bound to beat faster this November as the Pioneer Mountain Bike Stage Race unfolds in Central Otago. Already a classic after only two races in 2016 and 2017, the Pioneer is expected to draw several hundred bikers and supporters from as far away as Europe and North America.\nThis year\u2019s race has a six-stage format, with two-person teams heading off for six days on a 450km loop from Queenstown through the remote back country of the South Island. The route includes farm tracks and historic mining tracks and traverses three Great Rides in the New Zealand Cycle Trail Nga Haerenga (the journeys) network. With a backdrop of mountain peaks, crystal-clear blue lakes and golden South Island high country, it\u2019s hard to think of a mountain bike race more beautiful or inspirational than this.\nThe Pioneer MTB Race\nI-30 exit and westbound frontage road at Chapel Creek Boulevard closed July 26-27\nMayor Durkan on Passage of Domestic Workers Bill of Rights: Seattle Leading the Way to Protect Our Most Vulnerable Workers\nHow New Zealand\u2019s most photogenic tree became an Insta-star\nBryce Dallas Howard casts New Zealand in lead role\nBrewing up a storm to quench New Zealand\u2019s thirst for craft beer",

If you like the artworks displayed on our website please share it with others; you may: re-post it on social media websites as long as credits for the author and the project are provided.\nYou may not: reproduce it, alter it or publish it without explicit permission. Connect to us on this Facebook Page.\nAll rights reserved 2001-2015 \u00a9 ArmenianGenocidePosters.org\nWe are an international graphic poster competition commemorating the Armenian Genocide through series of designs, published and distributed in countries which have no legislation on Armenian Genocide. It's a part of a collective effort to demonstrate the impact of art, as one of the most powerful tools for the portrayal of historical events and the shaping of public opinion for the main purpose of spreading awareness and promoting greater international cooperation and involvement in the cause of Armenian Genocide recognition.\nThis is our chance to make ourselves heard, develop a project which would leave a mark in people's minds. It is not directed against Turkish people, it is there to tell them the true story of Armenian Genocide. We hope that it will also stimulate the cultivation and encouragement of Armenian contemporary graphic design and since posters are also informative- genocide education around the world.\n\"Still waiting for the fair trial\"\nDesign & Photography by Ruben Malayan\nWith the passage of time and the diminution in numbers of persons with 'living memory' of the Genocide, comes the risk that that the power of a visual basis for understanding will fade. Access to documentation, photographs, and symbols of remembrance are not always within the easy grasp of those who do not actively seek out information about their historical heritage. It is certainly neither a question of 'easy access' for those not ethnically-motivated to learn more; in the malevolent words of Adolf Hitler, \"who, after all, remembers the Armenians?\"\nCountless Armenian artists, musicians, and intellectuals suffered and perished in unimaginable ways, in the first single, pre-meditated mass extermination and violation of basic human rights of the 20th century. They, along with hundreds of thousands of men, women and children were wiped off the face of a nation. They, who committed no crime other than having had the wrong religion in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Armenian Christians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915.\nWith their passing has followed decades of frustration, unacknowledged anger, and for some - a slow but steady disintegration of the 'pictures in our heads', inevitable with the passage of time. For others, a tremendous sense of fortitude has emerged - in the survivors and descendants of families in Diaspora and in Armenia.\nThanks to the admirable work of Armenian intellectuals, policy-makers, religious leaders, and above all - families - the history of the annihilation of 1.5 million Christians is not forgotten. That said, there has never been a better time to reach out, to pool the extraordinary young talents and passion of the descendants of survivors from across the world, and to make a peaceful, powerful statement.\nThis is a call for support of a cause undertaken by a generation of young Armenians who choose not to let the images of the suffering of ancestors fade. An open international competition has been launched, in the form of a 'call to artists' around the world (Armenian and non-Armenian), to contribute a work that they think best depicts an image of the story of the Armenian Genocide. It can reflect a symbol of love, of suffering, of remembrance - anything that to an artist's eye and mind is appropriate given this historical yet politically-motivated theme. This depiction can also take any form - photographs, drawn or painted pieces, digital designs - any piece that can be presented in poster form. When chosen, the selected poster will be reproduced and distributed internationally as representation of the beacon of faith that Armenians must protect - that the truths of their history will finally be acknowledged.\n\"Ottoman History\"\nDesign by Yervant Herian\n\"Popular Method\"\nDesign by Ruben Malayan\nContributors to our projects include Walter Jansen, Ruben Malayan, Karen Vrtanesyan, Tina Bastajian, Vanig Torikian, Levon Parian, Sophia Gasparyan, Khaguig Dakarian, Aram Vardanyan, Yervant Herian, Arthur Kalpakch, Bedros Kahvejian, Vahe Gkoumousian, Museum of Amnesia, Serj Navasardyan, Aram Shahinyan, Vahan Stepanyan, Edgar Barseghyan, Sedrak Mkrtchyan, Pablo Gostanian, Armen Saboonchian, Alexander Kranz, Maria Victoria Mustillo, Aslanian Arda, Var Amayakyan & Nshan Garabet Bedrossian.

Our project also made it into the documentary by Dutch filmmaker Maartje Nevejan. Read an article on Assen Genocide Memorial.\n\"The Dark Chain of Human History\"\nPublished in Hebrew edition of Yair Auron's book - \"Israel and the Armenian Genocide: Banality of Indifference\" ( Open University Press, 2005 ) which summarizes and analyzes the positions of the Israeli government toward the massacres committed by the Turkish government against the Armenians during the First World War. Composed of ten chapters, the book opens new grounds for research on the Armenian Genocide and reveals the feelings and attitudes of Jews towards the Genocide.\n\"Deportation of and excesses against peaceful Armenians is increasing and from harrowing reports of eye witnesses [sic] it appears that a campaign of race extermination is in progress under a pretext of reprisal against rebellion.\"\nHenry Morgenthau,\nAmerican Ambassador at Constantinople from 1913 to 1916\n\"Time is the fire in which we burn\"\nThe Armenian Genocide was carried out by the \"Young Turk\" government of the Ottoman Empire in 1915-1916 (with subsidiaries to 1922-23). One and a half million Armenians were killed, out of a total of two and a half million Armenians in the Ottoman Empire. Most Armenians in America are children or grandchildren of the survivors, although there are still many survivors amongst us. Armenians all over the world commemorate this great tragedy on April 24, because it was on that day in 1915 when 300 Armenian leaders, writers, thinkers and professionals in Constantinople (present day Istanbul) were rounded up, deported and killed. Also on that day in Constantinople, 5,000 of the poorest Armenians were butchered in the streets and in their homes.\nThe Armenian Genocide was masterminded by the Central Committee of the Young Turk Party (Committee for Union and Progress [Ittihad ve Terakki Cemiyet, in Turkish]) which was dominated by Mehmed Tal\u00e2t [Pasha], Ismail Enver [Pasha], and Ahmed Djemal [Pasha]. They were a racist group whose ideology was articulated by Zia G\u00f6kalp, Dr. Mehmed Nazim, and Dr. Behaeddin Shakir. The Armenian Genocide was directed by a Special Organization (Teshkilati Mahsusa) set up by the Committee of Union and Progress, which created special \"butcher battalions,\" made up of violent criminals released from prison.\n\"Syrian Desert\"\n200 Armenian churches and monasteries on the territory of Turkey were burned and some 2150 ruined in the beginning of XX century. According to UNESCO information for 1974, 464 of 913 Armenian buildings were wiped off the earth, 252 - ruined, 197 needs general repair. As for Azerbaijan, 21 Armenian buildings, among which churches, monasteries, chapels, Armenian cemeteries were destroyed and burned since 1998.\n\"Some wounds time never heals\"\nDesign by Alexander Kranz\n\"Turkish Underground\"\nSome righteous Ottoman officials such as Celal, governor of Aleppo; Mazhar, governor of Ankara; and Reshid, governor of Kastamonu, were dismissed for not complying with the extermination campaign. Any common Turks who protected Armenians were killed.\nThe Armenian Genocide occurred in a systematic fashion, which proves that it was directed by the Young Turk government. First the Armenians in the army were disarmed, placed into labor battalions, and then killed. Then the Armenian political and intellectual leaders were rounded up on April 24, 1915, and then killed. Finally, the remaining Armenians were called from their homes, told they would be relocated, and then marched off to concentration camps in the desert between Jerablus and Deir ez-Zor where they would starve and thirst to death in the burning sun.\nOn the march, often they would be denied food and water, and many were brutalized and killed by their \"guards\" or by \"marauders.\" The authorities in Trebizond, on the Black Sea coast, did vary this routine: they loaded Armenians on barges and sank them out at sea.\nThe Turkish government today denies that there was an Armenian genocide and claims that Armenians were only removed from the eastern \"war zone.\" The Armenian Genocide, however, occurred all over Anatolia [present-day Turkey], and not just in the so-called \"war zone.\" Deportations and killings occurred in the west, in and around Ismid (Izmit) and Broussa (Bursa); in the center, in and around Angora (Ankara); in the south-west, in and around Konia (Konya) and Adana (which is near the Mediterranean Sea); in the central portion of Anatolia, in and around Diyarbekir (Diyarbakir), Harpout (Harput), Marash, Sivas (Sepastia), Shabin Kara-Hissar (?ebin Karahisar), and Ourfa (Urfa); and on the Black Sea coast, in and around Trebizond (Trabzon), all of which are not part of a war zone. Only Erzeroum, Bitlis, and Van in the east were in the war zone.\nDesign by Karen Vrtanesyan\n\"Absolut Denial\"\n\"Soul of an artist\"\nDesign by Sophia Gasparian\n\"State of Denial\"\nDesign by Var Amayakyan\nThe Armenian Genocide was condemned at the time by representatives of the British, French, Russian, German, and Austrian governments\u0097namely all the major Powers. The first three were foes of the Ottoman Empire, the latter two, allies of the Ottoman Empire. The United States, neutral towards the Ottoman Empire, also condemned the Armenian Genocide and was the chief spokesman in behalf of the Armenians.\nThe American people, via local Protestant missionaries, did the most to save the wretched remnants of the death marches, the orphaned children.\nDespite Turkish denial, there is no doubt about the Armenian Genocide. For example, German ambassador Count von Wolff-Metternich, Turkey's ally in World War I, wrote his government in 1916 saying: \"The Committee [of Union and Progress] demands the annihilation of the last remnants of the Armenians and the [Ottoman] government must bow to its demands.\"\nGerman consuls stationed in Turkey, including Vice Consul Max Erwin von Scheubner-Richner of Erzerum [Erzurum] who was Adolf Hitler's chief political advisor in the 1920s, were eyewitnesses. Hitler said to his generals on the eve of sending his Death's Heads units into Poland, \"Go, kill without mercy . . . who today remembers the annihilation of the Armenians.\"\n\"90 years, still alive\"\nDesign by Maria Victoria Mustillo\n\"DONOTFORGET\"\nDesign by Pablo Gostanian\nOnly one Turkish government, that of Damad Ferit Pasha, has ever recognized the Armenian genocide. In fact, that Turkish government held war crimes trials and condemned to death the major leaders responsible.\nThe Turkish court concluded that the leaders of the Young Turk government were guilty of murder. \"This fact has been proven and verified.\" It maintained that the genocidal scheme was carried out with as much secrecy as possible. That a public facade was maintained of \"relocating\" the Armenians. That they carried out the killing by a secret network. That the decision to eradicate the Armenians was not a hasty decision, but \"the result of extensive and profound deliberations.\"\nIsmail Enver Pasha, Ahmed Cemal Pasha, Mehmed Tal\u00e2t Bey, and a host of others were convicted by the Turkish court and condemned to death for \"the extermination and destruction of the Armenians.\"\n\"Old Sins Cast Long Shadows\"\n\"Armenians will never forget\"\nDesign by Vahan Stepanyan\n\"Denial is killing them twice\"\nHow to support this cause\nThis, like any other movement or initiative, has come from a single idea in the mind of single person. The realization of this initiative will be impossible without the collaboration and help from persons whose hearts and minds are touched by the importance of acknowledging all aspects of the Armenian historical legacy. Please do not hesitate to get involved and to support this first-of-its-kind cause - with photographical evidence, documentary evidence, institutional support, and intellectual feedback - anything that could have a bearing on the success of this campaign.\nAbove all, financial support is absolutely critical for the survival of this effort. Please help the mobilization of this unique project, so that it may be constructive in working in conjunction with existing efforts towards realizing the same goal.\nHelp this 'living' project to get off the ground and give to the world what thousands of words cannot and have not: a picture in our minds to remember. A picture that the world cannot help but see. A picture that makes each person who sees it feel the importance of Genocide recognition.\nThis project is initiative of : 15levels.com\nAll rights reserved 2015 \u00a9 ArmenianGenocidePosters.org\nNo image on this website is allowed to be copied, altered or reproduced in any form, electronically or in print\nText courtesy Knights of Vartan Armenian Research Center\nLast update: December 11, 2015 1:31 PM\nIf you wish to organize an exhibition of our posters or contribute a new design write to 15levels at gmail dot com",

K-pop is a style of South Korean pop music that incorporates many of the influences of American pop.\n\u201cBut what about the K?\u201d Lim asks. \u201cThis is where the unique Korean flair plays a role: infectious melodies sung mostly in Korean, a few English words strategically placed in the sing-along refrain, and single-sex groups made up of seven to 15 members.\u201d\nThrough a \u201crelentless pursuit of perfection\u201d and perfectly synced dance moves, along with a savvy social media presence, Lim believes groups like BTS are overcoming American stereotypes of Asians and finding a bigger stage on which to perform.\n\u201cIt might be too early to tell if BTS will be at the forefront of a \u201cK-pop Invasion,\u201d she writes. \u201cBut it\u2019s clear that they\u2019ve been able to bridge some of the divides that have prevented K-pop from catching on in the U.S.\u201d\nFor the complete article, see \u201cHow Korean boy band BTS toppled Asian stereotypes \u2014 and took America by storm\u201d in The Conversation.

        "raw_content": "WHERE GOOD QUESTIONS I\u2019VE BEEN ASKED GO\u2026\nQ: How old were you when you started writing?\nA: I was still in my \u201csingle-digit\u201d years when I started writing stories. I was eleven when I ultimately decided I wanted to write novels.\nA: Answers vary WIDELY with this question \u2014 at least for me!\nMy debut novel THE WITCHES\u2019 SLEEP took me about six months to write, edit, polish, and publish. My second novel, the sequel, WORLD OF THE BEASTS, took me 15 months, and I still wasn\u2019t finished polishing it even then. It was finally published in August 2014.\nEvery book is different.\nQ: What do you like most about writing? And what is the most difficult bit?\nA: Writing is such a wonderful escape for me. It\u2019s something I can do to channel away any unhealthy emotion. Writing is considered by many, many people to be the best form of therapy. I couldn\u2019t agree more. Writing keeps me sane.\nThe most difficult thing about writing would have to be the editing and making sure everything fits together perfectly. A story is a 100,000-piece puzzle. The picture is as beautiful as it can be when all the pieces are there and they\u2019re where they need to be.\nQ: Do you always know where the plot is going before you start writing?\nA: There are so many, many different ways to write. Some writers like to just dive in headfirst and go with the flow of the story. I don\u2019t like doing that. It stresses me out in the long run, because I hate editing with a passion, and all writing blind does is cause more work. I like to know exactly who my characters are, their goals, and such forth. I like to know from beginning to end all the major plot points and some in-between subplots. Of course, as I write, the overall plot becomes clearer, and I sometimes have to change course. But at least I have something to work off of.\nQ: I love to write but am scared to show anyone what I write in case they hate it and put me off. Did you feel like this, and if so, what did you do?\nA: Yes, I did! For years! As I said earlier, I started writing novels when I was 11. I didn\u2019t publish my first book until I was 17. In between 11 and 17 I had managed to write 5 novels, the word count on them ranging from 40,000 to 130,000. I had a few friends who loved reading what I wrote. They would ask me to email it to them chapter by chapter, and even help with brainstorming. Those friends always encouraged me that I had good ideas, and that I should consider writing novels as a career choice. I just wasn\u2019t so sure then if I could handle that kind of stress. I just wanted to write books for the rest of my life, but I didn\u2019t care if anyone read them. It made me happy, and it made a few of my close friends happy.\nWhen I wrote THE WITCHES\u2019 SLEEP, my dad told me, \u201cKaitlyn, we need to get this published. You\u2019re serious about writing. This is what you love to do. Let\u2019s make it the best we can so you can show the world this gift God has given you.\u201d\nMy dad was that final shove to publishing. It was one of the best decisions I ever made.\nQ: How did you make the decision to self-publish over traditional?\nA: This one is hard to explain. But, here I go:\nI self-published because I wanted to gain credentials. I have no other writing experience other than my own. When a traditional publisher sees that my work has been praised by Kirkus Reviews (https://www.kirkusreviews.com/\u2026/the-witches-sleep/) and several authors/readers, and that I\u2019ve won a Gold Medal, they tend to pay more attention, listen a little more, and consider me as a client. I want to be picked up by a traditional publisher, but as of this moment, I\u2019m sticking with self-publishing to build a resume.\nUPDATE: I have done extensive research on the pros and cons of self-publishing vs. traditional as well as independent publishing, and it is possible that I will simply stick to self-publishing. The reason? No matter who you are published by, you will have to market yourself. Sure, an agent can help out a lot, but ultimately you are left to market yourself. You will not just sit back and write books and have someone else publish and sale them for you. That\u2019s not the way it works.\nSo, yeah, I\u2019m staying self-published.\nQ: Do you want your book to be made into a film and if so who would play the lead characters?\nA: Ha, ha! I would just absolutely die of excitement if anyone wanted to make my books into films! As for who would play the lead characters, I honestly don\u2019t know. I\u2019ve had a few ideas, like Shia LaBeouf playing Kindness in His Heart and maybe Emily Browning as Sea-Anna. But even then, I could see Emily as Sunlight Reflecting off the Moon too.\nQ: After the sequel to this book, what is next?\nA: Ah, now that is the question! Let\u2019s just say there will be a great finale for all these lovely characters in the third book of this trilogy, The Warlock\u2019s Awakening (still in progress).\nQ: What is the biggest dream for your writing?\nA: Everyday I pray that God uses this gift He has given me to make this world a better place \u2013 one person at a time. I pray that my books encourage teens, enlighten everyone on issues our world faces, and simply make people smile.\nQ: What piece of advice would you give budding writers?\nA: This:\nKeep moving forward. Grow in knowledge and understanding. Knowledge is power. Never give up. Don\u2019t let yourself get too prideful about it either. Find a balance. Stay humble. If you fail, keep trying over and over. Success is not given freely. Success is earned. Anything worth doing is going to be difficult, but the blessings in the long run are priceless.\nQ: When will The Warlock\u2019s Awakening be available?\nA: The Warlock\u2019s Awakening has been a tricky book for me to write, and due to other life circumstances, I have not been able to focus on it like I would like to. I am working on it\u2026 slowly. I\u2019m hoping for a late 2018/early 2019 release. But don\u2019t get your hopes up too much, my loves! I can\u2019t promise anything right now. Life has been unpredictable.\nWARNING: ALL THE QUESTIONS BELOW MAY AND PROBABLY DO INCLUDE SPOILERS\nQ: In World of the Beasts, is Deep Thinker (Sunny\u2019s grandfather) the Man in Black or is it Light? Because I am super confused.\nA: It is expressed very clearly in Chapter Forty-One: New Heir that Deep Thinker IS NOT and WAS NEVER the Man in Black. The Man in Black is Light in the Night. Here is the section of the chapter:\nKindness looks at me and then the gun. \u201cLight is the Man in Black. His grandfather is Red Moon, the head senate. If I die, Light gets the title. He\u2019ll be the new heir once Wise\u2019s term is completed.\u201d\nLight was the grandson of Red Moon, the head of the senate. (Fun fact: Red Moon also married Kindness and Sunny.) In a case of Wise\u2019s line (Kindness) dying off, the head senate\u2019s blood line would then take the title. Since Kindness didn\u2019t yet have a son or daughter, Light in the Night was the very next heir if Kindness were to die.\nQ: Did Wise really kill Sunny\u2019s grandpa [Deep Thinker]?! That upsets me. I really loved him.\nA: I left that as a question for reasons. Book Three reasons. Be patient and stick by me. This specific question shall be answered as soon as possible. I promise, dearest reader. Trust me, I love him too. (Notice I didn\u2019t use the past tense of \u201clove\u201d *wink, nudge*).\nQ: Will you write a novella or short story in Brock or Abby\u2019s perspective about when they fell in love and had Jedidiah?\nDon\u2019t get me wrong, Reader, I love Brock and Abby too, and Jed, but I highly doubt I will ever get around to writing anything about or for them. I know myself too well. It won\u2019t JUST be a novella or short story. It will turn into a companion novel, and I simply don\u2019t have time for that. If I ever am inspired and BURN WITH A DESIRE to write about Brock and Abby\u2019s story, then MAYBE.\nUntil the burning arrives, no.\nQ: In both The Witches\u2019 Sleep and World of the Beasts you mention the air smelling similar to peppermint. What EXACTLY causes the air on Raena to consistently smell like peppermint?\nA: Here is a paragraph excerpt from Chapter Two: Taken of World of the Beasts:\nIn the backyard where we can hear the phone if anyone tries to call, we find a nice shade under one of the many oak trees. I lean into the bark and inhale its sweet scent. The witches say that it smells similar to something the humans have on earth. Peppermint.\nTrees. It\u2019s the trees.",

        "raw_content": "Saying That Insurers Force Shops To Repair Cars Improperly is Nothing More Than \u2018Crying Wolf\u2019\nShops repair vehicles and insurance companies reimburse insureds for their loss. That is a simple explanation as to what happens after an accident. So how is it possible that something so simple can be so confusing, challenging and rife with accusations of impropriety?\nAfter the most recent series of industry meetings, rants, press releases and whining sessions about insurance companies forcing shops to repair cars improperly, I offer you two words: get real. This is the most pathetic, unsubstantiated claim I\u2019ve ever heard. My compadres in the insurance industry are equally fed up with this biased, unprofessional and unfounded allegation. There\u2019s been more crying and sniffling than you would hear in most nurseries and daycares across the country. I\u2019m inclined to start producing \u201cNo Crying\u201d buttons to be passed out at the industry\u2019s next event.\nIn the movie, \u201cA League of Their Own,\u201d Tom Hanks\u2019 character said \u2018there\u2019s no crying in baseball.\u2019 I am here to say that there is \u2018no crying in the collision industry.\u2019\nIf you are not familiar with the crying that I\u2019m talking about, let me explain. Some collision repair shops are trying to convince the media and industry that insurance companies refuse to pay for a safe and proper repair, and that that\u2019s what leads to bad repairs. The only thing more ridiculous than that is saying all collision repair shops actually know how to do a proper and safe repair.\nI would challenge any shop in the United States to produce ONE single example of an insurance company refusing to pay for the proper repair or replacement of a safety related component or structural repair. If you do have an example, please also include the name and contact information of your customer so I can let them know that you knowingly repaired their car wrong because their insurer wouldn\u2019t pay.\nI think it\u2019s time we truly identify the root cause of all this noise and melodrama. There are items that shops and insureds are negotiating that shops aren\u2019t being reimbursed for \u2013 items that have nothing to do with the safety of the repair. That is the issue.\nNobody is asking you to section a part in an incorrect location. Nobody is telling you not to replace a damaged safety related component so the insurance company can save money. Nobody is telling you to straighten a part that requires replacement when it has been compromised.\nThe grandstanding that is taking place is unproductive and playing out worse than an episode of \u201cAll My Children.\u201d Which, by the way, was cancelled.\nThe fact is there are some bad actors in the industry who are more interested in being on the pulpit and acting like they are auditioning for a role in \u201cDesperate Housewives\u201d than they are in trying to resolve real problems. I suppose not resolving the problem allows them to stay in the limelight and at the forefront of controversy. Crying wolf usually will get the attention of someone once, maybe twice. But the third time is usually the end of the road.\nI\u2019m suggesting that you may have hit that end. So you have a few choices. Keep crying and become more irrelevant. Turn around with your tail between your legs and find something else to champion. Or perhaps travel a different road and look to find ways to help resolve some of the inherent conflicts that even I am willing to acknowledge exist.\nI would also request that if you are going to send me an example of an insurance company not paying for a safe and proper repair, don\u2019t focus on aftermarket parts. Aftermarket parts aren\u2019t the Second Coming of Satan. They have been installed on millions of cars since the late 1970s and early 1980s. Please provide me a list of the deaths and lawsuits won where it was proven that aftermarket parts were the cause. It shouldn\u2019t be that hard if it\u2019s as prevalent an issue as many of you seem to think. You have your choice of millions of cars on the road with aftermarket parts.\nHaving a tough time thinking of even one? That\u2019s kind of what I thought.\nNobody listened to the boy in the old story who cried wolf, and I\u2019m fairly confident nobody is listening to the current crop of industry whiners. Identify what your true issues are and stop trying to mask them with rants of \u201csafety\u201d and \u201csomeone is going to die.\u201d\nIf I completely missed the mark and insurers are refusing to pay for safe repairs, you have a responsibility to your customer and business to do the right thing. Share your story with \u201c60 Minutes\u201d and maybe you can retire a very rich person. The boy who cried wolf but was right\u2026 now who wouldn\u2019t pay for that story?\nMore in this category: \u00ab Cycle Time is Money for Everyone",

Capturing the north-western fuel depot area however will allow players to lay down some crossfire and destroy the enemies trying to approach through the central area. The central approach is the shortest way to enemy base but it is also the one with least cover. Players are advised to traverse this area swiftly or face withering enemy counter-fire that can stop any offensive dead in its tracks.\nThe eastern area is longer and is also separated from the center by series of small hills. Players do have the option of steadier advance here and capturing the center of the eastern approach allows them to once again fire on the enemies trying to break through the center.\n\u2039 The Pipelines Map up The Roughneck Map \u203a",

        "raw_content": "Roundup: Fast Food Habits, Raw Beef Recall, and Diet\u2019s Link to Breast Cancer\nPosted By John Fernandez On October 5, 2018 @ 7:00 am In Breast Cancer,Diabetes,Diet,Health Research,Healthy Living,Heart & Vascular,Research,Wellness & Prevention | No Comments\nMore Than One-Third of Americans Eat Fast Food on a Given Day, CDC Reports\nPrevious studies have confirmed that fast food consumption in the United States has increased over the past four decades at a troubling rate, and has been a major contributor to the obesity epidemic. A new report [1] from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that 36.6 percent of adults consumed fast food on a given day from 2013 through 2016.\nThe percentage of adults who consumed fast food decreased with age: 44.9 percent aged 20\u201339; 37.7 percent aged 40\u201359; and 24.1% aged 60 and over, according to the CDC.\nEating a poor quality diet high in fast food entries is linked to a higher risk of obesity, digestive issues, heart disease and stroke, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and even early death. There has been an increasing number of healthier fast food options available, but most fast food menu items are still considered of poor health quality.\nFast food is generally high in sodium, saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol \u2014 and all of these are contributors to heart disease and related risk factors such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.\n\u201cFast food is a part of the American diet and has been associated with high caloric intake, and poor diet quality,\u201d the CDC states. \u201cTime, financial resources, price, and availability influence fast food consumption.\u201d\nAmong all adults, a slightly higher percentage of men (37.9 percent) than women (35.4 percent) consumed fast foods. Men were more likely than women to eat fast food at lunch, but women were more likely to report eating fast food as a snack, the CDC said.\nThe percentage of adults who consumed fast food increased with rising family income levels, the CDC found. Overall, 31.7 percent of lower-income adults (less than or equal to 130 percent of the federal poverty level [2]); 36.4 percent of middle-income adults (greater than 130 percent to less than or equal to 350 percent of the federal poverty level); and 42 percent of higher-income adults (greater than 350 percent of the federal poverty level) consumed fast food on a given day.\nThe findings from the report has some limitations. The dietary habits was obtained from in-person interviews during which participants recalled what they had eaten in the past 24 hours. Such recall interviews can lead to underreporting and other issues.\nBack-to-School Nutrition: Start With a Healthy Breakfast [3]\n\u2018We Really Are What We Eat\u2019: Benefits of Nutrient-Rich Foods [4]\nRecall of 6.5 Million Pounds of Raw Beef Products Linked to Salmonella Outbreak, U.S. Agency Says\nJBS Tolleson, Inc., which is based in Arizona, is recalling 6,500,966 pounds of \u201cvarious raw, non-intact beef products\u201d because of possible salmonella contamination, the United States Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safety and Inspection Service [5] (FSIS) reported Thursday.\nThe raw, non-intact beef items, including ground beef, were packaged on various dates from July 26, 2018 to Sept. 7, 2018, the FSIS states. The following products are subject to recall: (Products List PDF [6]) (Product Labels PDF [7]). The recall was issued after health officials identified JBS as the common supplier of the raw ground beef products linked to reported salmonella illnesses.\nThe products subject to recall bear establishment number \u201cEST. 267\u201d inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to retail locations and institutions nationwide. They were sold nationwide under brand names Walmart, Cedar River Farms Natural Beef, Showcase, Showcase/Walmart and JBS Generic.\nMore than 50 cases of salmonella illness associated to this outbreak were reported in 16 US states between August 5 and September 6. The FSIS says it is concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers\u2019 freezers.\n\u201cConsumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them,\u201d the U.S. agency said. \u201cThese products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.\u201d\nHealthy Cookouts: 10 Safe Food-Handling Tips [8]\nSalmonella Tied to More Packaged Foods [9]\nProcessed Meats Linked to Higher Risk of Breast Cancer\nAn analysis of 15 studies [10] involving 1.2 million women has found that processed meat consumption is associated with a 9 percent higher breast cancer risk, researchers found.\nThe study\u2019s authors conceded that the previous studies produced \u201cinconsistent\u201d results in trying to establish a link between processed meat and breast cancer. Processed meats are those that have been preserved by smoking, curing or salting. Examples include bacon, sausages and ham. Most dietitians and cancer organizations favor fish, poultry, beans and plant-based foods over processed and red meat as protein sources.\n\u201cPrevious works linked increased risk of some types of cancer to higher processed meat intake, and this recent meta-analysis suggests that processed meat consumption may also increase breast cancer risk. Therefore, cutting down processed meat seems beneficial for the prevention of breast cancer.\u201d said lead author Maryam Farvid, M.D., of the Harvard T.H.

        "title": "Hymn Above All Hymns \u2013 Believer's Brain",
        "raw_content": "There is one hymn that moves me like no other, one that speaks deeply to me whether I am well or ill, and which provides great comfort to me. That hymn is \u201cAbide With Me\u201d by H F Lyte (1793 \u2013 1847). I love both the words and the music, and I hope you will read these words with me:\nAbide with me; fast falls the eventide:\nthe darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:\nearth\u2019s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;\nwhat by thy grace can foil the tempter\u2019s power?\nI think it is a great pity that we only seem to sing this one at funerals \u2013 though of course I recognise its great application there. To me this hymn speaks so much to those of us who have nothing, who rely on the grace of God to live each day \u2013 which is all of us, whether we recognise it or not. To live with mental illness is to be aware of our own vulnerabilities \u2013 to realise, at least in my case, that I need God with me, I need him to abide with me or all else is lost.\nDepression in me makes me feel like I am on the edge of death, as though I might die at any moment, whether through the pain itself or through my own hand, being unable to bear it any longer. That is why Psalm 23, with its mention of being in the valley of death has a great meaning for me. So it is with \u201cAbide with me\u201d, I too need God in life and in death, I too need him every passing hour, I feel the weight of sin and death pressing in in a way I cannot experience so well when ill, nor knew so much about before becoming mentally ill. At least one thing about mental ill-health is that we rely on God \u2013 not that I think God allows it for that reason, but it is one of the (few) benefits of suffering, that we lean upon the great Helper, our Guide.\nPerhaps I am of a melancholic disposition but I have always been a bit morbid in my thinking, often thought of death and delighted in the sort of dark stuff the Victorians were into. I would probably have liked to have been a goth, but I was far too shy! This poem speaks to that for me, to my awareness of the darker side of life, which was only confirmed when I developed bipolar disorder.\nSometimes all we can say is \u201cabide with me\u201d \u2013 when we have passed the \u201cwhy?\u201d and the anger stage, when struggling is futile and we are simply tired, then my prayer is only \u201cstay with me\u201d, \u201cbe here\u201d, and though it may seem cold comfort I do believe the Lord answered me, and although the poem \u201cFootprints\u201d is cliched now, it does have relevance \u2013 God is with us when we suffer, and while that may not seem much to someone now, down in the depths, it matters.\n\u00ab Back!\nPutting the Patience in Patient \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Bellona.org > Latest News > Nuclear issues > Russian Navy > Cold War nuclear legacy dismantlement in Sayda Bay \u2013 Mission: Possible\nMURMANSK \u2013 Sayda Bay, a naval area on the Kola Peninsula in Russia\u2019s Far North \u2013 a former fishing village serving as a long-term storage site for the hulls and reactor compartments of decommissioned nuclear submarines \u2013 long remained one of the world\u2019s worst radiation hazards. This all changed when the international community decided to do something about it \u2013 and when, in 2003, German technologies and funding came to Sayda Bay.\nPhoto: atomic-energy.ru\nIn 1990, Russia first started to decommission its old nuclear-powered submarines \u2013 and Sayda Bay, a locality in Kola Bay, in the northern parts of the Kola Peninsula, and not far from the shiprepairing yard Nerpa, which services the nuclear-powered ships of the Russian Northern Fleet \u2013 became the first place to accommodate the reactor compartments of the cut-up vessels.\nThese sections were hauled to Sayda Bay by tugboats from shipyards in Severodvinsk and other towns where the aged Soviet nuclear ships where being dismantled using funds dispensed via the Nunn-Lugar program (also called Cooperative Threat Reduction program, CTR). Named so for former US Senators Sam Nunn and Richard Lugar, who developed the program in 1992, the initiative has since its inception helped Russia destroy and safely store scores of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons inherited after the collapse of the Soviet Union.\nThe number of reactor compartments stored afloat, tethered to the pontoon piers, in Sayda Bay kept increasing year on year. By 2003, there had been some fifty reactor compartments moored in storage at the site.\nThe initial plan was to keep this extremely dangerous Cold War legacy in the bay for a period of no more than ten years and then move it into safe and reliable storage facilities \u2013 sites that were slated to have been built in the meantime. But twelve years later, construction had still not started, and the cut-up sections were still bobbing at the piers in Sayda Bay.\nIn fact, no storage facilities or special sites capable of safely accommodating the old reactor compartments were found either in Russia\u2019s North or in the Far East \u2013 areas where the nuclear-powered submarines of Russia\u2019s Northern and Pacific Fleets are stationed. This problem is something Bellona has written about extensively in its news coverage and spoken about at numerous international events focused on the issues of nuclear and radiation safety.\nGerman technology in Sayda Bay\nIn October 2003, however, an agreement was signed between what was then Germany\u2019s Federal Ministry for Economics and Labor and Russia\u2019s Ministry of Atomic Energy, the latter subsequently restructured into what has now become the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom. The agreement envisioned building an onshore storage facility for reactor compartments of dismantled nuclear submarines.\nThe construction of the new facility \u2013 a project financed by the German government \u2013 started in Sayda Bay in 2004. German companies were also developing the needed technology and directly participating in building all the infrastructure for the storage site. The Germans\u2019 experience and technology were used to create a unique transportation system for the 40-ton reactor compartments of old dismantled submarines.\nIn 2005, work started to prepare the site for construction of a reinforced concrete slab that would serve as the future storage yard. Altogether, some 300,000 cubic meters of soil was removed, and some 200,000 cubic meters of rock blasted and cleared from the site; on the whole, over 1 million cubic meters of material was moved. Dredging work was done as well in preparation for accommodating the floating dock that would carry newly cut-out reactor compartments arriving in Sayda Bay.\nAs of today, around EUR 700 million has been spent on the project.\nThe dramatic changes\nLate last June, Rosatom\u2019s Public Council arranged a tour of the onshore storage facility in Sayda Bay for members of the press and NGO representatives. Fifty-four reactor compartments from decommissioned nuclear submarines are stored and serviced on the land-based portions of Sayda Bay, while another 32 three-compartment blocks (including the reactor compartments) remain afloat at piers awaiting land-based handling.\nWords fail to describe the impression one now gets from Sayda Bay \u2013 an area that ten years ago offered nothing to the eye but a handful of decrepit shacks of the former fishing village. One wouldn\u2019t have believed the changes if one didn\u2019t see them for oneself.\nWhat was just wasteland and swamps less than ten years ago has today become the country\u2019s most state-of-the-art facility for storing reactor compartments of Russia\u2019s decommissioned submarines.\nThe roads \u2013 indeed, everything the eye observes \u2013 speak of the craftsmanship and orderliness German engineering is renowned for. The onshore storage facility\u2019s director, Vazgen Ambartsumian, proudly showed the visitors the concrete roads that revealed not a single dent, not even an oil stain.\nSmoking is strictly forbidden on the territory, and every worker is personally responsible for the area they are in charge with. Discipline, meticulousness, and punctuality are the work requirements set by the German partners.\nAnd as Ambartsumian takes the visitors on a tour of his site, one understands that successful projects such as this are not just born out of German funding and German experience \u2013 but the passion of those on site doing their best to make sure, day by day, that the difficult and important goal is being accomplished and what seemed at first like an impossible task is being fulfilled.\nSayda Bay. (Photo: Bellona)\nEvery ten years, a submarine reactor compartment held in storage in Sayda Bay will be transported into the workshop to have its coating renovated and radiation condition inspected. The compartments will remain in storage for 70 years, after which the next generations will have the task of researching further solutions for managing Russia\u2019s nuclear legacy.\n\u201cThe dosimetrists who inspect the hulls have this task before them \u2013 no matter what, they have to find \u2018contamination\u2019 on sections of the [reactor compartment] hull. And they practically never succeed at this,\u201d Ambartsumian said. \u201cThe quality of treatment of the [reactor compartments] is such that the compartments leave the workshop clean as a whistle, radiation levels are no higher than from the granite that surrounds the site. With the exception of some hulls that had a difficult service record\u2026\u201d\nIt seems unbelievable that such a modern facility would be built in the harsh Arctic conditions in such a short time. In 1995, when Bellona first started pressing for solutions to the nuclear and radiation challenges that had built up in Russia\u2019s north, we dared not even dream of such sweeping changes. At the time, the goal was to secure a minimal level of radiation and nuclear safety to keep these risks at bay. Today, one can state freely that as far as handling the decommissioned submarines\u2019 reactors goes, the improvements achieved surpass Bellona\u2019s wildest expectations.\nNot much is left to do in the Russian part of the Barents Sea, where grave nuclear and radiation hazards accumulated over the Cold War years \u2013 problems that were then left unattended in the subsequent years as Russia struggled through its transition from a Soviet state into a new democracy. What remains on this to-do list is safeguarding the naval radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel storage facilities in Andreyeva Bay and Gremikha; and scrapping the nuclear maintenance vessel Lepse \u2013 the world\u2019s most dangerous floating radiation hazard, which, after many years of refueling Russia\u2019s nuclear fleet and hauling the vessels\u2019 waste, and then decades of moorage at the port of Murmansk, was, thankfully, finally towed to the shipyard Nerpa last September, but found itself \u201cstuck\u201d there waiting for the single dismantlement spot to free up. When these tasks are accomplished, remediation efforts in the Barents region can be said to have succeeded at last.\nFinancial fraud revealed in Sayda bay project in Murmansk region\nNorthern Fleet reducing \u2013 nuclear safety increasing\nThieves make off with 14 tonnes of titanium from Sayda Bay submarines",

        "raw_content": "Albert Einstein\u2019s Revealing \u2018God Letter\u2019 to be Auctioned, Expected to Sell for $1.5 Million\nOctober 5, 2018 \u00b7 Everything Else \u00b7 0 Comments\nA handwritten letter by physicist Albert Einstein in which he summed up his thoughts on God and religion is due to be auctioned off later this year. It\u2019s expected to bring in $1.5 million, according to Christie\u2019s auctioneers in New York.\nDubbed \u201cthe God Letter,\u201d the one and a half page missive was written in German to philosopher Eric Gutkind in 1954, only a year before Einstein died. It\u2019s widely held to be a key manuscript in the debate of science and religion, Reuters said, and is Einstein\u2019s clearest statement of his views on the search for meaning in life.\n\u201cThe word God is for me nothing but the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of venerable but still rather primitive legends,\u201d Einstein wrote from Princeton, New Jersey. \u201cNo interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change anything about this.\u201d\nThe letter first hit auction houses in 2008, when it was bought by a private collector for $404,000, Christie\u2019s told AFP Thursday.\n\u201cFor me the unadulterated Jewish religion is, like all other religions, an incarnation of primitive superstition,\u201d Einstein wrote. The Ashkenazi Jewish scientist had been forced to flee Nazi Germany amid mounting persecution of Jews and intellectuals in the early 1930s.\n\u201cAnd the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong, and in whose mentality I feel profoundly anchored, still for me does not have any different kind of dignity from all other peoples. As far as my experience goes, they are in fact no better than other human groups, even if they are protected from the worst excesses by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot perceive anything \u2018chosen\u2019 about them,\u201d he wrote in the letter.\nEinstein is best known for his immense contributions to science, including discovering the photoelectric effect \u2014 best illustrated in the functioning of solar panels \u2014 for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921, and the equation E=MC^2, which illustrates the relationship between matter and energy, the key principle behind the atom bomb and nuclear power. Einstein also penned two theories of relativity and helped form the photon theory of light, from which the word \u201cquantum\u201d acquired its modern meaning.\nAlthough he wrote more than 300 scientific papers in his life, he also authored nearly 150 non-scientific works, including his thoughts on Zionism, war, socialism and, as this letter illustrates, God and questions about the meaning of life.\nThe letter will hit the auction block on December 4, following a public exhibition in San Francisco and New York.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cScrewing People Honestly:\u201d Stormy Daniels Almost Ran for Senate in Louisiana\nStormy Daniels previously formed an exploratory committee to run for the U.S. Senate in Louisiana, marking even more fascinating buried news about the porn star and perennial thorn in the side of President Donald J. Trump.\n\u201cThose of you who don\u2019t know who I am, I\u2019d suggest that you don\u2019t Google that until you get home from work,\u201d Stormy Daniels told a lunch crowd in Baton Rouge in 2009.\nAt the time, Daniels was contemplating a run for Senate against incumbent David Vitter. She seriously contemplated a run, and formed a limited liability company called the Stormy Daniels Exploratory Committee. Ultimately she did not run.\n\u201cEven as a teenager, Stormy Daniels was an unstoppable force for change. Not content to let her gender stop her from participating in a world typically dominated by males, at the age of 17, she was made editor of her high school newspaper, in addition to serving as president of her school\u2019s 4-H club, a service oriented organization sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture,\u201d says a blog called \u201cDraft Stormy,\u201d formed during her exploratory phase.\n\u201cAt first I was ignoring it and hoping it would go away,\u201d Daniels said in a local cable news interview in 2009. \u201cI was just overwhelmed with how many people were emailing and encouraging me to do this.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m not here to talk about my movies or my physical attributes or go on television and act like an air head,\u201d Daniels said in another interview. \u201cI take my country and my government extremely seriously.\u201d\nIt gets better. Daniels was going to run on a platform that strikingly resembles Trump\u2019s. She wanted to cut federal spending, abolish the federal income tax, and end the Iraq War.\n\u201cSimply because I did not fit in their mold of what an independent working woman should be, the media and political elite have sought to relegate my sense of civic responsibility to mere sideshow antics,\u201d Daniels said in statement when she was harangued by the political establishment.\n\u201cI\u2019m not one to judge someone\u2019s sexual activity, but what annoys me is that he\u2019s so hardcore \u2018family values,\u2019 and he puts his wife and kids out there, saying he\u2019s a Christian family man,\u201d Daniels said of her potential opponent Vitter. \u201cThen he\u2019s caught up in a prostitution scandal.\u201d Vitter was embroiled in the D.C. Madam Scandal at the time.\n\u201cHe\u2019s a hypocrite,\u201d she continued. \u201cI have nothing to hide. A sex tape of me isn\u2019t going to pop up and shame me. There are 150 of them at the video store.\u201d\nHer tongue-in-cheek campaign slogan was going to be \u201cScrewing People Honestly.\u201d\nThis story reveals that Daniels is a relatively-seasoned political figure, and now she\u2019s just screwing people. Her dubious lawyer Michael Avenatti has hidden his sources of payment \u2013 Daniels is not paying him for his Trump hit job, raising the question of who is. He also owes $5 million in back taxes, and worked on opposition research for Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Vice President Joe Biden.\nWhat are the chances that Daniels and her lawyer are hired guns working on behalf of the Democrats in a paltry effort to destroy Trump?",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Coburn Plan\nThe Return of the Washington Six \u2192\nPartnership with the Mass Math + Science Initiative produces big gains in\nAdvanced Placement* participation and performance.\nMETHUEN, MA \u2013 Methuen High School has made great gains on students\u2019 Advanced Placement (AP) scores, largely as a result of its partnership with the Mass Math + Science Initiative (MMSI), according to information just released by the College Board. This partnership, which began in the 2009-2010 school year, has enabled the school to expand its AP course enrollments and has provided resources and professional development to support high-level teaching and learning.\nFrom 2009 to 2011, Methuen has seen a staggering 273% increase in students participating in AP exams, along with an equally impressive 198% increase in the number of students earning qualifying scores. Prior to 2010, AP course participation for low-income and minority students in Methuen was quite low. This past year, 24.1% of Methuen\u2019s AP exam participants were minority students, and 17.3% came from low-income families. In addition to calculus, statistics, biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science, and two AP English classes supported by MMSI, Methuen High also offers AP courses in Spanish, psychology, United States history, European history, and studio art. Increased participation and improved scores have been evident across the board.\nAP courses are college-level classes taught in high school. Each course culminates with a May exam designed to measure each student\u2019s mastery of the subject. Exams are graded on a scale of 1-5, with scores of 3, 4 and 5 considered passing or \u201cqualifying\u201d scores. More than 90 percent of four-year colleges in the United States and colleges in more than 60 other countries give students credit, advanced placement, or both on the basis of AP Exam scores.\n\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled with the AP achievement of our students,\u201d said Jennifer Smith, Methuen\u2019s Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment. \u201cWe\u2019ve almost tripled the number of students participating in Advanced Placement and have nearly doubled the number of qualifying scores. The MMSI initiative has given Methuen High so many resources and such high-quality professional development to support our teachers and students. It has been an extremely effective means of giving more students college-level learning experiences while they\u2019re still in high school.\u201d\nMMSI expands access and improves outcomes in college-level courses, particularly among black, Hispanic, low-income, female, and other student groups under-represented by AP classes, in order to prepare them for highly skilled careers in STEM. The MMSI approach includes extensive teacher training and mentoring, Saturday study sessions and other academic supports for students, and privately-funded financial awards for teachers and students. Schools participating in the program sign performance agreements with MMSI, which include specific enrollment and achievement targets. 2010-2011 was Methuen High School\u2019s second year in the program.\n\u201cThese results demonstrate that with high quality training and support, students in Methuen and across Massachusetts can succeed in rigorous, college-level courses, setting them on a path to college and career success,\u201d said Morton Orlov II, President of the Mass Math + Science Initiative. \u201cOur students, particularly low-income and minority students, are meeting the challenge. The school district has demonstrated a commitment to excellence by partnering with MMSI, and Methuen\u2019s teachers and students worked very hard for these impressive results \u2013 I congratulate them.\u201d\nMMSI, the largest statewide high school science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education program, now partners with 45 Massachusetts high schools. In its first three years, MMSI has increased AP math, science, and English enrollments in participating schools from about 4,000 to more than 8,000 today. From 2008 to 2010, MMSI schools nearly doubled their numbers of qualifying scores with a 96% increase. A 2011 Worcester Polytechnic Institute study showed that MMSI schools have made \u201csignificantly more progress\u201d in closing AP participation and achievement gaps than non-MMSI Massachusetts high schools.\nInformation on total gains in qualifying scores across MMSI\u2019s 45 partner schools will be released in September.\nAbout Methuen High School\nLocated in northeast Massachusetts, Methuen High School has a total enrollment of just over 1800 students. About one-third of its students are minorities, and nearly 20% did not speak English as their first language. One-third of the school\u2019s students come from low-income families. Methuen High\u2019s AP program began in 1990-1991, with 26 students participating in two courses\u2014calculus and English literature. In 2010-2011, 265 students participated in thirteen different Advanced Placement courses. More than 18% of the school\u2019s most recent graduating class had scored a 3 or higher on at least one AP exam during their junior and senior years.\nAbout MMSI\nThe Mass Math + Science Initiative (MMSI) drives a school culture of high expectations and dramatically increases participation and performance in Advanced Placement courses, particularly among underserved populations, to prepare students for college and career success in STEM. Led by Mass Insight Education in partnership with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the program was founded in 2007, when Massachusetts was one of six states selected by the National Math and Science Initiative (NMSI) to receive a privately funded grant to expand enrollment and performance in AP math, science and English courses.

(AP) \u2014 The \u201cvacation\u201d is over and it\u2019s back to the White House for President Barack Obama.\nThe president headed for Washington late Sunday after spending two weeks with his family on the island of Martha\u2019s Vineyard. He will soon have to decide whether the beheading of an American by Islamic State militants is reason enough to take a step he has long resisted.\nObama has avoided intervening militarily in Syria for three years despite the rising death toll in the country\u2019s civil war, the government\u2019s use of chemical weapons against civilians and the rise of the Islamic State group amid the chaos.\nThe president\u2019s own military leaders and some critics in Congress are pressuring him to go into Syria in an effort to defeat the group.\nWhite House officials have suggested that military airstrikes in Syria are an option, though the officials say specific military proposals have yet to be presented to the president.\nObama\u2019s attempt at rest and relaxation was largely overtaken by events involving Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria, including the videotaped killing of a U.S. journalist they had been holding hostage. The unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, after the fatal police shooting of an unarmed black man was another major source of concern for Obama and his advisers.\nEdgartown\t, Martha's Vineyard\t, President Obama\t, The White House\t, vacation\n3 thoughts on \u201cVacation Over, Obama Returns To White House\u201d\ndangerous BlkMan on August 26, 2014 at 4:58 am said:\nHaha.

In fact, it is estimated that more than 18 percent of people in North America are allergic to nickel, including 11 million children in the U.S., making it a widespread public health concern.\nNickel Allergy: How to Avoid Exposure and Reduce Symptoms\n\u201cIf you have a nickel allergy, the best way to avoid symptoms is to avoid objects containing nickel,\u201d said board-certified dermatologist Jenny Eileen Murase, MD, FAAD, assistant clinical professor of dermatology, University of California San Francisco (UCSF) Medical Center. \u201cHowever, this can be challenging, since nickel is present in many common household items.\u201d\nTo avoid exposure and reduce symptoms, Dr. Murase recommends the following tips:\nMUST READ: 5 Skin Problems Caused By Bacteria\n1. Choose jewelry carefully. It\u2019s common for a nickel allergy to develop from wearing jewelry containing nickel. Earrings, earring backs and watches are some of the biggest culprits; however necklaces, rings and bracelets containing nickel can also trigger symptoms. To avoid exposure, only wear jewelry that is nickel-free, hypoallergenic, or made from metals such as surgical-grade stainless steel, 18-, 22-, or 24-karat yellow gold, pure sterling silver, or platinum. In addition, wear watchbands made of leather, cloth or plastic.\n2. Check your clothing. It\u2019s also common for belt buckles, bra hooks, and metal buttons, zippers and snaps to contain nickel. If your clothing has these, replace them with ones that are plastic or plastic-coated. You can also create a barrier between these items and your skin by coating the items with clear nail polish. However, the nail polish will need to be re-applied often.",

He said, \u201cI am excited to have the opportunity to be back working with the talented and hardworking people at the SEC, as well as with my fellow Commissioners. I look forward to engaging with them and the public to carry out the SEC\u2019s important mission.\u201d This was echoed by Chairman Clayton, who applauded the move and said it was an honor to welcome Roisman back to the commission.\nThe new commissioner has a high level of experience. Roisman was most recently Chief Counsel on the Senate Banking Committee, and was previously Counsel to SEC Commissioner Daniel Gallagher, a Chief Counsel at NYSE Euronext, and an attorney at the New York office of law firm of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP. He has a bachelor\u2019s degree in History from Cornell University and a J.D. from the Boston University School of Law.\nImpact of the New Appointment\nThe new appointment of the commissioner means new developments in the regulatory climate in the United States. Of major interest to crypto analysts and enthusiasts is the anticipated approval of a Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).\nSince blockchain-crypto is a new area, guidelines and regulations are still evolving. On August 23rd, the SEC indicated that it would review a decision made by its staff to block nine bitcoin-based exchange-traded funds. The staff stated that they weren\u2019t convinced that an ETF would not be subject to fraud or manipulation.\nAccording to a March report posted on the SEC\u2019s website, the commissioners were mandated to review a decision on an ETF approval. The commissioners previously voted 3 against 1 in rejecting another bitcoin ETF application. Notably, Hester Peirce, the Republican commissioner, dissented the approval on the basis of stifled innovation.\nAll eyes in the crypto sphere are therefore directed at the new commissioner with the hope that his appointment will result in an approval of a Bitcoin EFT.\nCommissionercryptoElad RoismanSECsecurities and exchange commission\nPrevious ArticleAddicted to Crypto Volatility?

        "raw_content": "Using FatFS with HAL \u00bb\n\u00ab 433MHz receiver and transmitter\nCMSIS stands for Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard. CMSIS is a hardware abstraction layer for Cortex-M devices. It is common interface across different vendors which is good because it is a standard when Cortex-M devices are being considered. It means that you don\u2019t have to worry about the compatibility issues. However, talking to the peripherals like SPI is completely different case because CMSIS handles only the basics, excluding mentioned peripherals. Communication with MCU peripherals requires a direct registry manipulation. This solution is error prone if you don\u2019t know what you are doing. For example you can misunderstand the documentation in some cases and wonder why something is not working, it happens very rarely but still. If you get it right you will probably get the best code and the most efficient piece of software. This is not recommended for beginners who just started their adventure with microcontrollers programming.\nThe compatibility across different microcontrollers is, however, different issue. The code which you have written will only work on a specific target device. Sometimes it can be ported to a different device but from the same family line. Using this approach you won\u2019t avoid adjustments.\nSPL stands for Standard Peripheral Library. It is a set of libraries created by ST company which in theory should make programmers life easier. In practice you end up with two things. First of all, you have to learn how to use the library. Fortunately, the company published a lot of examples on which you can learn but close to zero useful documentation. The other thing, however, is that you also need to learn a bit about the ST microcontrollers; there is no shortcut. In the end you don\u2019t only have to teach yourself how to use the library itself but also you have to know the architecture of the MCU which you are going to use. In conclusion, you have to do the same work twice which is terribly inefficient.\nWhere is the advantage of this approach? It\u2019s quite obvious. Using SPL makes life easier. Your code is, more or less, portable and you don\u2019t have to know the nuances. In either case, it is better to know them. The biggest disadvantages is the library itself because of two reasons. You don\u2019t know if it is buggy. There is plenty of talk about this and it is not in favour of the SPL. Also let\u2019s say that you want to make something more complex, like two or three peripherals depending on each other, if the SPL wasn\u2019t prepared for this you end up exactly where you were before. You have to write your own code which operates on MCU registers. Going this way, it gets the job done but if you were dreaming about any kind of portability of your code, now you can forget about it completely.\nAlso, it is very recent situation which has cover in real life, the ST company decided to discontinue the development of this piece of software. This is the case, ST decided to make a new library called HAL. It is described below.\nHAL is an abbreviation for Hardware Abstraction Layer. In comparison to the SPL it has a lot of new features. Not only it was rebuild from the ground up but also there is a new tool which should make your life easier \u2013 STM32CubeMX.\nLet\u2019s focus on the library itself. When analysing the library and its code you can be under impression that the names of functions, variables etc. were changed and everything else stayed the same. Actually, a lot has been changed and improved. One big advantage is that you can reuse your code between different chip families based on Cortex-M core from this vendor. ST delivers a set of libraries which have identical API (in majority of cases), and the only thing that you have to do, to run the code on a different MCU, is to switch a set of libraries which shouldn\u2019t be painful; and recompile your code. Sounds fantastic but, like with everything else, only to a certain point.\nAt the beginning, I mentioned the STM32CubeMx. It is an outstanding piece of software, only it has been introduced to the market a few years too late. If you are familiar with Code Expert from Motorola, now Freescale, the STM32CubeMx is more or less the same. The STM32CubeMx is a tool which allows you to:\nSelect a chip in which you are interested in by many different criteria,\nSelect peripherals which you would like to use and configure them,\nConfigure clocks by filling up gaps/changing values in diagram,\nConfigure internal peripherals,\nDo some profiling for power consumption based on designed chip activity,\nAnd the last but not the lest, to automatically generate C code for your project.\nStill this tool requires a lot of work and there is still room for some improvement.\nSo why not to use HAL along with STM32CubeMx if it is so versatile. There is still a risk when ST becomes bored with the HAL, however unlikely it may seem, it can happen and then they simply discontinue this project. The HAL library can meet the same fate as SPL did.\nThe HAL library is not only library for the internal peripherals. It also allows you to configure FreeRTOS, FatFS and along with it SD card support. Let\u2019s look more closely on the FreeRTOS support. ST created a set of wrappers and called it a new OS which actually runs FreeRTOS under the hood. But still you can use native FreeRTOS \ud83d\ude42\nAlso there are some other libraries dedicated to the specific core or even a family of devices. One of them is a set of libraries created by Tilen Majerle. It was build upon the HAL library. Furthermore, it is not only a set of libraries with wrappers but also a set of drivers for external devices like LCD, DS18B20, and a few others. It is definitely worth to have a look on this one.\nAlso there are proprietary libraries which come with a whole IDE like CrossWorks for ARM from Rowley.\nTo sum, there is a whole variety of IDEs and libraries. Some have more pros then others. What is the most important factor which you have to keep in mind, however, is if the library you are going to use suddenly could be discontinued. But still, it is not a very big problem if you separate hardware layer from your logic layer. Then you can relatively easily switch from one to another.\nThere was published a second part about SPL, HAL, and LL frameworks.\nPosted in Microcontrollers | Tagged CMSIS, HAL, SPL, STM32\n3 Responses to SPL vs HAL: which one should you use\nC343 says:\nIt was very useful to me, thank u\nTales S. Somensi says:\nIt\u2019s a very enlightening post. Thank you Domski. I\u2019m migrating from 8bit microcontrollers to the STM32 line. I will go with CMSIS library. Do you have tips and/or examples that may help me with the learning process? Best Regards.\nI am very happy to hear that.\nAs for starting with CMSIS it might not be a very good idea. CMSIS are general libraries for the CPU core. If you want to use other peripherals like GPIO or timers you will be forced to go with direct register access. It can be very educative but it won\u2019t do for bigger project. Instead of focusing on developing your project you, at the beginning, you will spend a lot of time to just make things work. But after some time you should be very proficient at it. I can advise to start with HAL and then maybe switch to LL. Best of luck!",

When it does happen, you can bet there is an interesting story behind it. A recent case in New Hampshire does not disappoint.\nIn 2009 Geraldine Webber made a will to divide her estate. This will left one-fourth of her estate to each of Portsmouth, New Hampshire's fire and police departments. In addition, a couple of charities were each designated to receive $500,000. Webber's disabled grandson also was named a beneficiary. In 2010, Webber was diagnosed with dementia. However, in 2012 she made a new will. That will gave $2.7 million to a single police officer, Sgt. Aaron Goodwin. He was not named as an heir in the original will. In an article titled \u201cPolice Commission authorizes probe of Goodwin's inheritance,\u201d Seacoast Online provides the full story. The police commission has announced that once litigation over the estate ends, it will officially look into the circumstances of Goodwin's inheritance.\nWhile it is not common for a police commission to look into a single inheritance, the underlying issue in the case is quite common. When someone who has been diagnosed with dementia creates a new estate plan, litigation frequently ensues over its terms, especially if the terms of the plan have been changed substantially. Why? Because a person must be mentally capable of creating a will, even though a person with dementia can make a new will. In some cases it is necessary because of changing circumstances. However, it is important that those who stand to inherit under the old will are informed of the new circumstances and why the will is being changed. Taking that key step can help to avoid costly litigation.\nWhen making a will or making a new will, be sure to consult with qualified legal counsel sooner rather than later.\nReference: Seacoast Online (July 28, 2014) \u201cPolice Commission authorizes probe of Goodwin's inheritance\u201d\nPosted by Dorsch Law Firm on 08/15/2014 at 08:29 AM in Dementia, Estate Planning, Mental Capacity, Overland Park, KS, Will Contest | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: Dementia, Estate Planning, KS, Mental Capacity, Overland Park, Will Challenge, Will Contest",

A study has supported this by showing that ex-baseball players in most cases enjoy longer lives and mostly less of old age complications.\nCoordination of different body parts\nCoordination is an essential aspect of the health world. In a loose definition, the wellbeing of a person is a result of smooth coordination of different body parts, and this solidifies the complex body system. Fortunately, baseball is a game where the player has to coordinate and determine the amount of arm strength to be applied with keen eyesight.\nIn conclusion, it is relatively hard to compare the health benefits of to the overall input by a player comprehensively.

As much as you keep browsing the internet on what to eat and what not to, you have to understand that man cannot live by bread alone, and with that it is essential to keep your muscles active. With the advance of technology, few people take a walks while heading home. This is because people are not passionate about walking or exercising, so you need to identify games that you are passionate about and start playing them. One game that gives you holistic health benefits of exercising is the baseball. It enjoys a cult following in the United States of America with 51% of Americans being active fans. Below we will discuss some of the health benefits of playing baseball.\nWhile you are playing baseball and you try to make those home runs or better yet, swing your bat in a super speed, you are burning calories. It is worth to note that when you eat more calories than you can get rid of, your body stores it as fat and with that you start gaining weight which in turn causes you to have some health issues. Research has shown that an individual who weighs 160 lbs. and plays baseball for 30 min will burn 182 calories. This is a significant amount.\nAs is the usual case baseball is an outdoor game and with that you get exposed to sunlight. Sunlight is the primary source of vitamin D which is essential in various metabolic functions. One great function of vitamin D is the absorption of calcium which is vital in formation of bones and clotting of blood when injured.\nUnlike other sports where players don\u2019t need to concentrate as much when playing, baseball involves mental consciousness where players have to constantly keep in mind the number of outs and which player is on base. When playing, a player has to concentrate on the location of the ball and understand when he needs to run.\nStrong legs & arms\nBaseball is an engaging sport that involves running and squatting. The short burst done by players from one base to another involves your hamstring and glute muscles while swinging, catching and throwing a baseball will involve biceps, triceps, chest and shoulder muscles. This activity will help you build an athletic upper body.\nTherapeutic (stress relief)\nEngaging in baseball will let you relax your blood vessels, reduce blood pressure and heart rate. These are some of the signs of stress. Additionally, it will help your brain produce endorphin which is a hormone that is attributed with stress. So when you feel stressed, step out and enjoy a game of baseball.\nBaseball is one of the most watched and played games from youth league to the professional league, it has holistic health benefits. One of its outstanding health benefits has been burning of calories, as most of you have understood, each meal we eat has a certain number of calories. These calories if not used up during our day to day activities, it gets stored in our bodies as fat. Once stored, they cause several health issues such as obesity hence it is paramount to exercise. The simplest method to achieve this is by engaging in fun activities such as playing baseball.\nWhat Exactly is Wax Weed?\nMost commonly referred to as \u2018wax\u2019 or \u2018dabs\u2019, cannabis concentrates are getting people higher than our grandparents in the 60\u2019s ever would have thought was possible.\nWhile there have been huge leaps in the quality of the flower buds themselves, the THC content of the most potent strains in the world today still peak just a bit under 30%. Hash or Hashish comes up next in the race and has been around for nearly a thousand years. As you would expect from exactly what is wax weed, there are dozens and dozens of methods to prepare different forms of hash. The concentration of THC in the most potent and diligently produced hash, however, can reach up to 65%. Next come the various cannabis concentrates. None of these are recommended for a first time smoker, and for anyone interested in creating their own concentrate should keep in mind that there are considerable dangers in the majority of production methods for this variety of products. When speaking of \u2018concentrates\u2019, one is referring to a wide range of products including \u2018wax weed\u2019, \u2018shatter\u2019, \u2018budder\u2019, \u2018hash oil\u2019, and many more. All these names allude to different methods employed in the production of the substance, or to different characteristics of the end product itself. Wax weed concentrate are made with the intention to extract pure THC from the cannabis plant and, you got it, concentrate it into a smokable or otherwise consumable substance. For example, wax and shatter are two different forms of a concentrate with different consistencies. Both generally employ a method of THC extraction involving blasting the plant matter with butane to get highly concentrated THC out of it. Sounds sketchy, but there is a complex process of evaporation which follows, and a skilled producer can guarantee that the end result is clean and free of harmful residues. Wax, as you can probably guess, is very gooey and well, waxy. Shatter obviously, is brittle and solid. With accounts of solvent based extraction as early as the 1940\u2019s, hash oil really gained some traction in the 70\u2019s with the publication of books such as Cannabis Alchemy: The Art of Modern Hashmaking and Marijuana Chemistry: Genetics Processing and Potency. Since then, countless new methods of extraction and concentration have led to an unbelievable range of consistencies, flavors, potencies, and consumption methods. Not every concentrate is made with the end goal of getting consumers as high as humanly possible though. Many have been created as medical products so that patients don\u2019t need to smoke nearly as much for relief from symptoms as they might have to with bud. This is because the THC content in concentrates can range from a benign 30% up to a mindblowing 80%, and even beyond 90% in some concoctions from the most dedicated craftsmen in the field. So if you are ever offered wax weed or butane hash oil, or dabs, remember that you may be in for quite a shock if your tolerance is not quite up to par, and it is always better to start off slow. It would also be wise to look into the signs of a good quality concentrate, and the characteristics of all the different forms of one, if you are interested in having your noggin rocked to the moon. Lastly, be extra cautious if you are more intrigued by the medicinal properties, as you may end up with much more than you bargained for.\n3 Popular Kinds of Meat: Their Advantages and Disadvantages to Our Health\nOf the few foods which animals provide us with, meat seems the most popular. We eat meat generally for sustenance, but also because it performs some specific functions in our body. Those functions include growth and development of our body tissues. Consumption of meat also contributes in ensuring the overall well being of the body.\nMeat is able to perform the above functions because of its rich protein content \u2013 protein being the element the body needs for growth and development. Apart from protein, it also contains other nutritional elements which our body equally needs. Meat has various classifications or names depending on the animal from where it is produced.\nMeat, however, is not only beneficial to our body. Unfortunately, it may also pose some detriments to our body health-wise. Let\u2019s examine this more closely.\nBeef, the number one red meat, refers to animal flesh got from cattle. It is very rich in protein, and also contains other nutritional elements including fats and vitamins at varying proportions.\nBeef is a very popular and highly consumed meat all over the world. In 2016, 129.5 billion pounds of beef was consumed across the world. That's how popular it is. Beef can be fried or cooked. It can also be made into hamburger, steak and various kinds of beef products.\nBeef helps in protecting the heart; and has been scientifically proven to have the capacity to reduce excess cholesterol. It also helps in lifting the mood. On the other hand, beef is said to have the possibility of increasing mortality and may further the risk of having cancer.\nChicken is another very popular and widely eaten meat. It is got from poultry, and is the most popular poultry meat. Just like beef, chicken contains high amount of protein. Other nutritional facts about chicken reveal that it contains 143 calories, vitamins, and fats. Chicken can be eaten in various forms such as chicken soup, fried chicken, chicken sandwich, and so on.\nAccording to organicfacts, chicken has the following advantages.\n- Helps in weight loss\n- Helps in the control of blood pressure\n- Reduces cancer risk\n- Has reduced cholesterol\n- Used in the treatment of common cold\nIf these advantages is anything to go by, it means that chicken is preferable to beef. Few reservations, however, exist with the eating of chicken. It is, for instance, feared that chicken contains excess quantity of omega-6 fat because of the kind of food it consumes.\nSecondly, chicken is suspected to be more susceptible to bacterial infection. Another thing that should be taken into consideration is whether the bird, from where the meat comes, is pasture-raised or free range-raised, since that contributes in deciding the quality of the meat and its fitness for human consumption.\nPork is the third of the 'big three' when it comes to meat. Just like beef and chicken it has high protein content. It also contains high quantity of fat and calorie. Though, forbidden by some religions, pork is widely consumed across the globe. In fact, it is predicted that by 2014-2026 global pork consumption will be about 127.52 metric kilotons.\nFood experts note two main advantages of pork. They are that it is generally cheap and has high Vitamin B-1 content. It contains omega-6 fats to an excessive degree and is prone to contamination by bacteria more than other kinds of meat. These two disadvantages raise questions as to how safe it is for consumption.\nWith your awareness of the health benefits and risks of the three major meat sources for human consumption, depending on their natural composition or rearing method, it is time to do a closer review of your meat shopping.\nIt is also important that you should never be shy to ask questions whenever you\u2019re in doubt about the source of that beef, pork or poultry meat you want to buy, or to simply walk away if you don\u2019t get a satisfactory answer. This helps to ensure you don\u2019t endanger your health and that of your family, instead of improving it.\nAre steroids as dangerous as they are presented to be?\nThe simple answer to this question is that they are not that dangerous. The level of exposed danger is dependent on the type of steroids you buy, whether they are legal or not, and how they will react with your body. As a matter of fact, the steroids popularity has increased due to the negative impact they have on individuals. Are they that harmful given that they are widely used by athletes and bodybuilders? Steroids are safe and they are often a part of the bodybuilding and maintenance of a proper physique. If you get the best legal steroids by yourbodydoctor.com they are safe and good for the body.\nBelow are some of the major reasons why we say that they are safe for the body.\nThey are widely used by professional athletes and bodybuilders.\nNot everything that other people is right for your body. However, in the case of the use of legal steroids, it guarantees some safety on the human body. A lot of athletes have had a lot of interest in ensuring that they keep as fit as possible. They have no time to risk for their health that would put their career on a string. Despite a lot of regulations in the sports industry, athletes use steroids to help them in keeping their peak performance. If steroids were not safe and have a lot of side effects, athletes would not be using them to maximize their performance.\nSteroids are often modeled after the body\nUnlike the many supplements that are usually designed to force the body to do something that it doesn\u2019t do, steroids only enhance the body to increase the performance of something that they do. They are regarded as a copy of the testosterone that is already produced by the body. This is the main reason why they are effective than the other form of medications or supplements that are hard to tell the impact that they will have on your body.\nSteroids are actually recommended by doctors.\nWith all the negativity that surrounds the consumption of steroids, it may be assumed that they are completely forbidden but on the contrary, doctors have been prescribing steroids to the patients for a long time. They do so in order to address some issues that may have on the bodies. For instance, steroids can be greatly used to curb the low sex drive, delayed puberty, delayed growth, menstrual and menopause issues among other conditions experienced on day-to-day living. If steroids are not as safe as it is claimed, why would doctors prescribe them to their patients of different ages and gender?\nBasically, the steroids that you choose to use are safe so long as you follow the advice of your health practitioner and you take legal steroids.\nTop Ways to Treat Cancer\nCancer is a deadly and terminal disease that has continue to threaten the well being of man for years before now. Cancer occurs as a result of abnormal cell growth which damages the tissues of organs of the human body. Organs of the body which are often affected by cancerous cells are Eye, Breast, Cervix and the Skin. The human beings have never relented on their effort to put a stop to the cancer problem through continued research and advancement in the already proven treatment of cancer affecting different organs of the human body. For now, there are series of ways in which cancer treatment may be carried out on cancer patients in the hospital with strict adherence to what each treatment entails for professional practice. In this article, I will discuss four ways by which cancer can be treated. All of these four ways of treatment are well practiced and used for treatment of cancer at Sheba Medical Centre, Israel.\nRadiotherapy is a word that includes two words which are; Radiology (the use of radiation from radioactive materials) and Therapy (meaning way of treatment). Radiotherapy is simply put as the use of radiation produced from outside the human body to treat cancer under a well-monitored condition. The radiation from radioactive materials are used in killing the constantly growing cancer cells. This way of treatment may be in coupled with other therapy like surgery and chemotherapy for effective cancer treatment when needed. This type of therapy has been used successfully over the years and Sheba Medical Centre is well structured to give the latest and most advanced radiotherapy treatment to our esteemed patients.\nThis is another way used in the treatment of cancer disease. Brachytherapy is the use of radiation from a radioactive materials placed inside the human body. It is a radiation that travels a short distance unlike the radiotherapy where radiation is from an external source. The use of brachytherapy is for continuous treatment and very effective against cancers of the prostate, head, eye, neck, breast and cervix.\nThis is the use of drugs for the treatment of cancer disease. Chemotherapy is used to either cure the cancer or to relieve symptoms of cancer. The use of chemotherapy can be combined with radiotherapy, surgery and other therapies. In the chemotherapy procedure, drugs used for the treatment may be introduced to the affected organ orally (through the mouth) or intravenously (through the veins). The common drugs used for chemotherapy are Avastin, Herceptin and others.\nThis is the latest therapy for treatment of cancer and it is based on the use of the human immune system as a tool to fight and wage war against the cancer cells of affected organs. The immunotherapy is instigating and motivating the immune system to attack the cancer cells. The procedure is about the use of vaccines, cell transfers, and biological drugs to instigate the immune system of the patient. It is worthy of note that Sheba Medical Centre is atop in the use of immunotherapy for cancer treatment due to very encouraging results the Medical Centre has from the use of Tumor infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) for Melanoma treatment.\nVertigo and Other Balance Disorders need Medical Attention ASAP\nNot many people are aware that vertigo and other balance disorders such as unsteadiness, shakiness, and swaying arise out of certain deep-rooted medical conditions. Going by the general perception, vertigo comes suddenly and goes away after some time. It does happen, sometimes. But many times, vertigo recurs. The continuous on and off imbalance issues damage the physical and mental health to a great extent. What a person with vertigo and any other imbalance issues need is quick medical assistance, correct diagnosis of balance disorder and the cause and appropriate treatment.\nIt is worth exploring how vertigo or dizziness (a broader term for balance disorders), occurs in a person and what are the medical options available to him/her to rectify the disequilibrium and lead a healthy life again.\nThere are numerous reasons for why vertigo or dizzy spells occur. Some of them are:\nTrauma or injury to the head and neck\nMajority of the chronic dizziness cases are due to vestibular disorders or are peripheral vertigo.\nThe inner ear, eyes, proprioceptors and the balance centres in the brain work together to assess whether the body is in motion or stable and how the body should maintain its equilibrium. This balance system is remarkably complex and has a delicate structure of nerves, bones and tissues.\nRead here \u2013 the causes, symptoms and treatment of vertigo in detail.\nVertigo or dizziness recur if the underlying disorder is not diagnosed and treated. Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment are the best way of managing vertigo lastingly.\nHow do the diagnostic tests help determine vertigo and its cause?\nBalance disorder specialists, such as neurotologist, neurologist, otolaryngologist, and the ophthalmologist can diagnose the balance disorders and the causes through a battery of tests on vision, inner ear, central nervous system, balance screening etc.\nThe tests are conducted to isolate the unrelated or non-contributing complaints and find out the right cause of vertigo. The diagnostic inspections also help the doctors to find out the problem site and the severity of the condition.\nThe advanced diagnostic and treatment devices designed in NeuroEquilibrium TM aid in analysing test reports and provide an accurate diagnosis of the vertigo condition. The real-time data mapping during the treatment helps hugely in assessing the effectiveness of the treatment and planning the further treatment plan. Hence, every line of vertigo and balance disorders treatment can be customised to cater to the specific recovery needs of the patients.\nAccurate diagnosis is the key to right treatment and quick recovery.\nMedical assistance for vertigo patients\nDoctors make the initial inquiry to understand the general health condition and lifestyle of the patient. Further, they would ask about the severity, duration, frequency of the dizziness and any other associated symptoms accompanying imbalance. The overall effect of the disequilibrium on the patient is carefully studied.\nSome of the associated symptoms of vertigo are tinnitus, hearing disability, blurred or jumping vision, nausea, vomiting, motion sickness, fatigue etc.\nLocal ENT check-up and general balance test, follow the inquiry. Dix-Hallpike test is the primary investigative test conducted to check the functions of eyes, ears, and the balance system.\nAdvanced diagnostic tests to diagnose vertigo and the cause\nModern hi-tech diagnostic equipment and tests help analyse the balance disorders and their causes effectively.\nVNG helps in evaluating VOR (Vestibulo-Ocular-Reflex) and oculomotor system in the patient to know if there are any functional disorders in the balance system.\nENG is similar to VNG. Both VNG and ENG help detect the abnormal eye movements in the vertigo patients. The difference lies in the administration of the tests. VNG is conducted with the help of infrared cameras fitted to the goggles and ENG is done by placing electrodes around the eyes.\nCraniocorpography (CCG)\nCCG tests vestibulospinal reflex in the vertigo patients. It helps identify posture and balance abnormalities.\nDynamic Visual Acuity (DVA)\nDVA is done to detect peripheral vestibulopathy and early signs of vestibulotoxicity. An essential function of VOR is to maintain the image of the target object on the fovea, constant, even while moving the head.\nSubjective Visual Vertical (SVV)\nSVV help evaluate the otolith system in the patients that are responsible for maintaining the upright position concerning gravity or assess linear acceleration.\nTo sum up, it is imperative to have an accurate and detailed diagnosis of vertigo or balance disorder and the cause to provide efficacious treatment to cure vertigo.\nTips to gain and build chest muscles.\nChest muscles is arguably one of the greatest asset that a man can have and it is a part that is most admired by the ladies. For any man to stand out, they need to take really good care of their chest and seek to gain and build muscles. As much as you are building your chest muscles, you need to build a proportional body shape and make every part of the body to be fit.\nFor you to get the desired chest muscles, you do not need to work out so much with the gym equipment. As much as they help in muscle building, their main role is to ensure that your body is physically fit with the right biceps and the main goal of getting your body in shape. For you to gain the chest muscles, you should ensure that you perform exercises that are fit for your body. It is recommended that when lifting weights at the gym, you should use Manimal wrist wraps in order to avoid accidents that may happen due to grip loss. Below are some of the basic steps that you should undertake when seeking to build your chest muscles.\nBefore you start any exercise, it is important to warm up. This prepares you for the exercise that you are about to undertake. The warm up involves performance of normal activities for about 15 minutes before you can move to exercise your joints and muscles.\nOnce you are done with the standard activities, it is recommended that you should do some pushups. When doing this, you should ensure that the arms, chest and shoulders are really coordinating well. Your back should be lowered to a point that it is almost touching the floor, then your hips should be twisted in a way that when you bend the right knee, it comes below the left elbow. This procedure should be repeated for about 15 minutes. The pushups can not only be performed when lying on the floor, they can as well be done when leaning to the wall or at the doorway.\nAfter the pushups, you can do the dips that aim the chest, arms, shoulders and the upper back. This is done when sitting on the floor, your knees should be bend, then your butt rose in a way that the butt and he torso will be parallel to the floor. You should carefully bend your elbow in order to lower your butt.\nThe last step is to perform the triceps press by targeting the arms, chest as well as the shoulders. Your arms should be positioned in front of the chest and push the palm to the floor. Your left arm ought to curl under the right arm so as to grasp the right shoulder. This procedure should take about 15 minutes.\nReasons why you should undergo therapeutic injury care.\nBeing involved in an accident or getting an injury is one of the most horrifying times of a person\u2019s life. For the people who survive the accident, they may suffer from physical damage as well as emotional trauma. As much as it may be a difficult situation to be in, your attitude towards the auto accident injury can determine how fast or slow you heal. It is recommended that you should take measure that will enable you to gain your physical strength back. One of the best ways to do this is by undergoing therapeutic care.\nThe spinal cord is greatly affected after an accident and you are unable to perform physical duties, including the lightest duties.You will get all sorts of solutions such as pain relievers, massage, and acupuncture or even at bed rest. As much as these may serve you for a while, they may not be long-term solutions until you visit a qualified specialist for physical and occupational therapy in Denver.Some of the major benefits of undergoing chiropractic adjustments are:\nThey are able to treat several injuries.\nInjuries, whether high-impact sports injury or other forms of injuries, cause a lot of strain on the body. You would want to be back on your feet as soon as possible after an injury. This enables you to have improved performance of the physical activities, you become more flexible, the blood is able to flow evenly throughout the body, etc. It is important in reducing the irritation of the nerve roots along the spinal cord thus reducing the amount of healing time for other minor injuries.\nOccupational therapists are able to relieve the pain.\nWith the kind of specialization the chiropractors have, they are able to sport the root cause of any spinal cord disorder. The earlier it is detected, the easier the pain management. It is worth noting that the spine contains so many sensitive tissues that, if they are in any kind of pain, the whole body is unable to function even to the lightest duties. A specialist is able to detect if there are misaligned patterns in the spinal column and work out in ways to treat it\nThe performance is greatly improved.\nThe key role of an occupational therapist is to reduce the intensity of the pain as well as improving the general performance of the body. He/she performs physiotherapy that ensures that your body parts are moving in a perfect way by ensuring that you are able to manage the pain got from an injury. For the sportsmen, it is important to have the body parts perform at their best in order to get the most from the competitions. Likewise, it is recommended that if you experience abnormal spinal pain, you should visit a specialist as the more you delay, the more the pain could become severe and hard to manage.",

        "title": "New Pill Offers Hope for Advanced Prostate Cancer - Urologic Health Highlights",
        "raw_content": "Urologic Health Highlights\nNew Pill Offers Hope for Advanced Prostate Cancer\nBy Urology San Antonio on July 28, 2008 at 1:42 PM\nBy Abbey Forney, Communications Director\nFor men with advanced prostate cancer whose disease is not responding to treatment, namely hormone therapy, an experimental pill tested in a very small group of patients is showing great promise. According to the Los Angeles Times, the pill, called abiraterone acetate, dramatically shrank prostate tumors and more than doubled the survival of 14 to 16 of the 21 men taking it.\nMuch more testing is needed, but the pill has the potential to be one of the biggest developments in prostate cancer in decades. Why? Because until now, the prognosis for men facing end stage prostate cancer has been very poor. Men in this unfortunate circumstance often die within six months. Chemotherapy is available, but its effectiveness is marginal and the side effects can be debilitating. In contrast, results from the abiraterone study, published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, showed minimal side effects and clinically meaningful responses in 70 to 80 percent of study participants.\nWith so much potential riding on this drug, you can bet that Urology San Antonio physicians will be closely monitoring its progress through the drug pipeline and working to bring clinical trials of this new therapy to San Antonio.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / College Life / Preparing for College Equals Preparing for Life\nPreparing for College Equals Preparing for Life\nDecember 15, 2017 by Claire Hastings Leave a Comment\nAs one of the most important periods in your life, going off to college will be a challenging transition into adulthood that can affect your future. During this time, you\u2019ll have an opportunity to acquire some healthy and constructive life habits, expand your knowledge and gain valuable experiences. From having more personal independence to socialising with diverse people, your college years will be truly enriching. And you\u2019ll encounter more than a few life lessons even before your freshman year.\nSelf-exploration and self-assessment\nWhen choosing a college, you should keep in mind that, to some extent, you\u2019re choosing your future. This is a major life decision that shouldn\u2019t be made hastily. You\u2019ll need to explore your options and think about where do you see yourself in the future. Of course, you can never know what the future holds for you, but knowing your interests and setting some personal goals will get you on the right track. Thus, the first life lesson that college teaches you is that you should possess a level of self-awareness. You should know your strengths and weaknesses, assess your knowledge and skills and get to know your interests. This will enable you to make the right decision when it comes to college selection and increase your chances of success.\nOnce you\u2019ve chosen a college, you can focus on preparing for your entrance exam. The sooner you start, the better because you\u2019ll have enough time to prepare, cover the subject in depth and relieve a lot of pressure. Not only will this help you get into the desired college, but it will also provide you with a solid basis for your future studies. Depending on your field of interest, there\u2019s a lot of courses you can take to prepare for the entrance exam. For example, if you want to study the English language and literature, you can take a College English Placement Test and cover areas such as reading comprehension or writing skills. On the other hand, if you want to enroll in medical school, you should prepare and study thoroughly for the comprehensive GAMSAT questions because this is one of the most difficult fields of study. If you\u2019re interested in math, you can take ACCUPLACER College Level Math Test. Starting your studies with solid prior knowledge in the field will greatly facilitate your transition into college.\nOnce your college year starts, you may feel completely overwhelmed by all of your assignments and responsibilities. You\u2019ll find yourself torn between completing your duties and exploring all the excitements of the student life. What you shouldn\u2019t do is neglect your obligations in order to party or immerse yourself completely in your studies without giving yourself a break. Finding the right balance now can really help you both during your studies and later on in life when you\u2019ll need to balance your work and personal life. Even if you spend more of your time studying at first, you\u2019ll have plenty of opportunities to have fun later. If you don\u2019t let your assignments pile up and you start studying early on, preparing for your exams will be a lot easier. In addition, you\u2019ll make a great first impression on your teachers, which can really go a long way.\nFor the first time in your life, you\u2019ll be moving away from your home and have more independence. Whether you\u2019ll share an apartment with a roommate or live in a college dorm, you\u2019ll need to learn to take care of yourself. From doing laundry, cooking and cleaning to sharing a room or a flat with a complete stranger, you\u2019ll come across numerous challenges. In addition, with your family at home and your friends studying somewhere else, you may experience homesickness and loneliness. All of this can be quite overwhelming and stressful, so you\u2019ll need to find a way to deal with it. Apart from learning some basic life skills while you\u2019re still at home, you should find a constructive way to relieve stress. In addition, acquiring effective stress-management techniques now can really help you in the future. Don\u2019t hesitate to call your friends and family when you miss them, but make sure not to become socially withdrawn. You\u2019ll have an opportunity to join student organizations where you\u2019ll meet diverse people with shared interests, attend different events and find great volunteering opportunities. Not only will this make your college years more exciting, but it can also help you improve your career prospects.\nGoing off to college will be one of the greatest changes in your life. However, by preparing for your entrance exam as soon as possible, learning to balance your studies and your personal life and acquiring proper stress-management techniques, this transitional period will pass without any major challenges.\nOne Week Left: What You Should Be Doing Before Move-In Day\n3 Lessons All Students Should Seek to Learn in 2017\n7 Life Lessons to Teach Your Kids Going to College",

        "title": "Breakfast with Grampa Gus - The Sibling Fight",
        "raw_content": "The recent Ontario case of Cowderoy v. Sorkos Estate released June 4, 2012 is an interesting decision by Justice Tausendfreund of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The case explains and applies an almost 150 year old equitable doctrine that has seen increasing discussion and judicial comment in recent years: proprietary estoppel.\nThe facts of the case can be summarized as follows.\nGus Sorkos was born in Greece. He emigrated to Canada as a young man. Gus found work as short-order cook in London, Ontario where in 1960, he met and fell in love with Victoria Cowderoy who was a waitress at the same restaurant.\nGus and Victoria commenced a common\u2013law relationship which lasted over 40 years and ended when Victoria died in January 2001.\nGus did not have any children of his own. Victoria had two grandsons- Paul and Mark Cowderoy who became very close with Gus. Their relationship was one of grandfather and grandchildren.\nGus and Victoria worked hard and saved enough to acquire some considerable wealth including a farm and a cottage property. Gus also owned a restaurant. Paul started working at the restaurant when he was 12 and Mark started when he was 8. They worked as bus boys, dishwashers and when they were older, as bartenders.\nIn 1985, when Paul was 17 and Mark was 13, they had a breakfast with their adopted grandfather Gus that was to change their lives. At that breakfast, Gus told Paul and Mark that he would be asking them to do a lot of work for him on the farm and at the cottage. They would not get paid for their work, but, Gus promised them he would leave them these properties in his will. The boys agreed . They all shook hands to seal the deal.\nOver the years, Gus would renew his pledge to leave them the farm and cottage. He would do this according to the boys at least once a year.\nIn exchange for Gus\u2019 promise, Paul and Mark worked the farm. The work included planting trees, cleaning the pond, digging trenches, ploughing the fields, gardening and doing maintenance on the farm buildings. At the cottage, they cut the grass, built a deck, demolished an old cottage, painted and opened and closed the cottage each year.\nPaul and Mark did this work for Gus until he died, almost 25 years.\nUnfortunately, Gus did not follow through in his will. After their grandmother Victoria died, Gus remarried. In his last will he left the following:\n$ 250,000.00 to his new wife\n$ 50,000.00 to Paul\n$ 1000.00 to Mark\nThe residue including the farm and cottage to his five siblings in Greece\nPaul and Mark sued the Estate to have title to the farm and cottage transferred to them.\nPaul and Mark faced some legal hurdles.\nThe first hurdle was the requirement that the evidence of their agreement with Gus had to be corroborated as required by Section 13 of the Ontario Evidence Act. The section reads as follows:\n\u201d In an action by or against the heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators or assigns of a deceased person, an opposite or interested party shall not obtain a verdict, judgment or decision on his or her own evidence in respect of any matter occurring before the death of the deceased person, unless such evidence is corroborated by some other material evidence.\u201d\nPaul and Mark\u2019s lawyer called several witnesses who had heard Gus re-affirm in their presence his intention to transfer the farm and cottage to the boys when he died. The judge found that this constituted corroboration. There was also an earlier will that had left the farm and cottage to the boys which also corroborated the boys\u2019 assertions.\nAnother problem the boys faced was that the original agreement was verbal and not in writing. The Defendant estate argued that the agreement was void as according to section 4 of the Statute of Frauds, agreements for transfer of interests in land must be in writing or are otherwise void. However, the judge found that the boys could overcome this hurdle based on the doctrine of part performance. They had done their part and kept their side of the bargain.\nMost important, the trial judge held that Paul and Mark could rely on the doctrine of proprietary estoppel. The Ontario Court of Appeal in Schwark Estate v. Cutting summarized the law of proprietary estoppel in this way:\n\u201cThe law with respect to proprietary estoppel is well-settled. This court has accepted that Snell\u2019s Equity properly discloses the elements necessary to establish proprietary estoppel as: 1. encouragement of the plaintiffs by the defendant owner, 2. detrimental reliance by the plaintiffs to the knowledge of the defendant owner, and 3. the defendant owner now seeks to take unconscionable advantage of the plaintiff by reneging on an earlier promise.\u201d\nThe judge found that Gus had:\n\u201crepeated his assurances for many years in front of several third parties in relatively unambiguous language and the Plaintiffs relied on those promises to their detriment subordinating their lives to the wishes and demands Gus put to them .\u201d\nThe trial judge further wrote:\n\u201c In my view, when making out his December 17, 2003 Last Will and Testament purporting to leave the farm and cottage properties to his residuary beneficiaries, Gus was no longer legally in a position to do so. To hold otherwise would be unconscionable to these Plaintiffs who had partially altered their lives for more than 25 years to Gus\u2019 benefit and to their detriment. The degree to which they had so altered their lives is akin to \u2018putting Humpty Dumpty back together again.\u2019 It is impossible.\u201d\nThe judge ordered the estate to convey the farm and cottage to Paul and Mark.\nSo, the next time your kids complain they\u2019re not getting paid for doing all those chores- tell them the story of Paul and Mark.\n\u2039 On flying solo and an update on Samsung sibling spat\t\u203a Estranged wife and kids fight over an American icon\u2019s remains",

        "raw_content": "It may be old news by now, but UM-Flint is officially on Flickr. Photos are being uploaded to the university\u2019s Flickr account, where the UM-Flint community can find the latest and greatest from events or campus goings-on. What\u2019s more, any photos tagged \u201cumflint\u201d by anyone on Flickr are now included in the UM-Flint Social Flickr feed. We\u2019re really excited about this new way to tell the UM-Flint story with photos. Soon we\u2019ll have Flickr stats to share as well.\nBelow, a summary of UM-Flint\u2019s social media efforts in the month of May. Commencement content was the clear winner in generating user interest.\nIn May, UM-Flint\u2019s Facebook fan page gained 215 likes (up 7% from April) for a total of 6,259.\nMay saw 3,246 Monthly Active Users on Facebook (down 9% from April).\nMay\u2019s highest amount of interaction took place on May 10. Photos from the May 1 Commencement were posted on that day, and it\u2019s no surprise that the photos generated the highest level of activity for the month.\nThe tweeted links most often clicked in May were links to Commencement photos and UM-Flint Today, the campus\u2019s weekly e-newsletter. UM-Flint Today is typically distributed to faculty and staff by email, and this was the first month links were shared on Twitter. The first tweeted link achieved more clicks than links shared the following weeks. Perhaps the initial success was due to curiosity about the content.\nIn May, UM-Flint YouTube channel\u2019s videos were viewed 2,304 times.\nThe majority of views were via embedded video players. This indicates that our content is largely being watched on the UM-Flint website.\nThe video watched most was \u201cUniversity of Michigan-Flint 2011 Spring Commencement | Behind the Scenes,\u201d uploaded on May 3. It was viewed 387 in May, and 98 times on the day it was posted.",

        "raw_content": "Some of you reading this are suffering through the same things I am. Have the same questions I do. Wonder what comes next, and just how much worse this fucked-up \u201cprocess\u201d just might get.\nGrief has to be just about the worst thing I can possibly comprehend. There\u2019s no real way to define it. Do you call it \u201cpain?\u201d Does the word \u201closs\u201d encompass what we call grief? Here\u2019s your standard dictionary definition:\n\u0261r\u0113f/\ndeep sorrow, especially that caused by someone\u2019s death.\n\u201cshe was overcome with grief\u201d\nsynonyms: sorrow, misery, sadness, anguish, pain, distress, heartache, heartbreak, agony, torment, affliction, suffering, woe, desolation, dejection, despair.\nSure. They all fit, I guess. And yet they don\u2019t even begin to come close to defining what someone goes through when faced head-on with true, real, forever loss. It\u2019s absolutely indefinable.\nNow here\u2019s the thing. I, just like every skydiver reading this, has had to deal with some version of grief, at some level, in some way. If you\u2019ve been in the sport for any length of time, then you have either lost, or have a close friend who\u2019s lost someone, probably to our lifestyle. That remorse, that pain you feel, even for someone you may not have \u201cknown\u201d is all tossed into this big definition of grief, and I fucking hate it, because all the words in the world can\u2019t begin to define \u201cit.\u201d\nThe last few years in skydiving have taken huge numbers from us both in and out of the sport, and it doesn\u2019t seem a day goes by without a new tribute to someone loved and lost. Some of us find a degree of solace in voicing our grief through social media, and I for one wholeheartedly support any Goddamn thing that can help get you through the day. Some of us internalize it, some of us save our true grief for those moments when we are the only ones to witness the very physical form this specter called grief can take. Then there are those times when it just takes over, all on its own, out of the blue, and takes us wherever the fuck it wants. It\u2019s brutal and heartless and at times unrelenting.\nI\u2019ve had two huge losses in my life over the last few months. Both of them have hit me in ways I never would have expected, and have left me forced, quite unwillingly at times, face to face with myself. That\u2019s one of the things people tend to leave out when they talk about the \u201cprocess\u201d we go through in dealing with grief. They forget to tell you about all the questions you\u2019ll be left with, all the turmoil, and in both of my recent losses, raging fucking anger!\nAnger at a longtime, truly beloved brother for fucked-up mistakes I\u2019ll never get to hear him say \u201cI\u2019m sorry\u201d for. Mistakes I believe I\u2019m owed an explanation for, a reason\u2014any reason\u2014for the betrayal I felt, and still fucking feel! They don\u2019t tell you how Goddamn hard it is to be pissed off at someone who\u2019s died. If he were here and alive today, I\u2019d still be so fucking mad at him I\u2019d be shaking with borderline rage, and yet what I wouldn\u2019t give for the chance to be exactly that. What\u2019s harder is that I didn\u2019t lose this brother to a skydive, or to a BASE jump, or to any other thing you could use the garbage statement \u201cdied doing what he loved\u201d to try and to make some kind of sense of it. They don\u2019t have a guide for how to navigate between tears and rage. I guess perhaps that will just come with time.\nAnd more anger. Anger at myself. True deep disappointment when I look in the mirror. They don\u2019t tell you how empty the statement \u201cYou just have to let go and forgive yourself\u201d is when you mourn the loss of someone who you can\u2019t help but feel deserved so very much more from you than you gave. My second goodbye in as many months is filled with an overwhelming sense of luck, of joy, of privilege that I was allowed, for so long to reside in this beautiful soul\u2019s life, but is filled just as deeply with regrets that only I will ever understand. Filled with questions that will never be answered, and the \u201cI\u2019m so sorry\u201d I can never give. Filled with grief. The most singular sensation I have ever experienced.\nSome of you reading this are suffering through the same things I am. Have the same questions I do. Wonder what comes next, and just how much worse this fucked-up \u201cprocess\u201d just might get. Some of you have yet to walk this path, and no matter how much I would love to, I can\u2019t tell you that you may never have to cope with it, because you most certainly will. It\u2019s not a matter of if, it\u2019s just a matter of when, and whether it\u2019s one of the closest friends you\u2019ve ever had, a family member or even a pet (creatures with the ability to get closer to you than anyone or anything you can possibly fathom) you will eventually have to deal.\nGrief is fucked. Grief is worse than you can possibly imagine, but, no matter what you may think, or how you may feel, you are never alone with it. Someone else is dealing with it too, even if they only grieve for the loss you\u2019re suffering through. Don\u2019t let anyone else tell you how to cope with it, but cope nonetheless. Time doesn\u2019t heal shit, but time allows us each day, just a little more relief, a little more room to breathe. Then out of the blue, you\u2019ll snap again and again, you\u2019ll breathe. It\u2019s the hardest part of life I\u2019ve encountered yet \u2026 So breathe. Cope. Lean on anyone or on everyone, or on no one at all. Deal. Fuck the definition, because at the end of the day, it doesn\u2019t exist.\nBlue Skies, Black Death.\ngrief i78 throwbackthursday\nNew Cutaway Chinstrap for Cookie Fuel\nPhoto Interview: Steve Lefkowitz | Excerpt",

        "title": "Professor: Anti-Campus Carry Arguments Not \u2018Based On Logic, History, Or Verified Facts\u2019 - Blunt Force Truth",
        "raw_content": "Professor: Anti-Campus Carry Arguments Not \u2018Based On Logic, History, Or Verified Facts\u2019\nUniversity of West Georgia adjunct professor Jason W. Swindle Sr. says arguments against campus carry are not \u201cbased on logic, history, or verified facts.\u201d\nOn the other hand, he suggests that arguments for campus carry are logical and important to the preservation of life.\nWriting in the LaGrange Daily News, Swindle describes his walk from the classroom to the parking lot on dark, cold nights in January and February. He says, \u201cThere have been times I wished I had my .38 revolver inside of my jacket.\u201d\nHe then turned to the newly enacted Georgia campus carry law, expressed his happiness over the law, and pointed out that those who opposed it did not not oppose it with logic. Moreover, he suggested that opponents of the law ignored history and regurgitated a list of worst case campus carry scenarios that have never proven true.\nFor example, Swindle points out that opponents of campus carry said, \u201cGuns on campus would lead to an increase in violent crime.\u201d He responded, saying, \u201cThere are ten states (including Georgia) that have provisions allowing the carrying of concealed weapons.\n\u201cTwenty-three additional states allow each college to make the decision. None of these states have seen a resulting increase in gun violence as a result of legalizing concealed carry.\u201d\nHe noted that some opponents of campus carry say, \u201cAdding guns to the \u2018college lifestyle\u2019 of drinking and partying would be a disaster.\u201d He then responded to this claim, saying, \u201cFirst, it is unlawful for a licensed concealed permit holder to carry while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.\n\u201cLicensed holders went through the proper steps, underwent a background check, and were licensed by a probate judge. Logic would dictate that these class of gun owners possess the highest level of responsibility and thus would not carry while drinking.\u201d\nSwindle then pointed to campus carry opponents\u2019 favorite go-to argument\u2014that \u201cGun free zones (GFZ) are safe because no one can possess guns in those areas.\u201d He drew from his experience in law, his knowledge of criminal cases and repeated exposure to how and why criminals attack, to say:\nIn 13 years of criminal defense practice, I have not had to read books, debate ideas, or test classroom theories to confirm that human predators, like our fellow mammals in the animal kingdom, prey on the weak and defenseless. Like the cheetah that picks out the weakest, youngest, or sickest wildebeest, a rapist, child abuser, armed robber, or gunman will choose the weakest victim(s). A gunman knows that people in GFZ\u2019s cannot defend themselves. The gunman has no risk of being shot himself when he opens fire in schools, some campuses, and other GFZ\u2019s. A 2014 study by the Crime Prevention Research Center showed that 92 percent of mass shootings in public places between 2009 and 2014 were in GFZ\u2019s.\nSwindle also noted that no matter how nicely he presents his arguments, those fighting for gun control are often quick to frame their case in emotion and enter into name-calling. He said that while he always does his best to \u201cagree to disagree,\u201d his support of Georgia\u2019s campus carry law garnered him some Facebook responses that \u201cwere not exactly a classy expression of disagreement.\u201d\n(First reported by Breitbart News) http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/07/09/professor-anti-campus-carry-arguments-not-based-logic-history-verified-facts/ (July 10, 2017)\nThe Facts Currently Known About Nunes Memo, FBI Bias Accusations\nAntonio Sabato Jr. Goes on Live TV & CRUSHES \u2018View\u2019 Hosts with Immigration Facts\n10 Interesting Facts About the Life and Legacy of Billy Graham\nWATCH: Worst Nat\u2019l Anthem Performance in History Happened at NBA All-Star Game",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archive: Ann Nocenti\nSay Happy Valentine\u2019s Day with your favorite superhero\nFiled under: Comics & Books, Con Culture, Retro Fix, Superheroes \u2014 Leave a comment\nDC Comics went retro for Valentine\u2019s Day this year releasing the first issue of the classic Young Romance comic book title in literally decades, a title that started its own sub-genre more than sixty years ago. For the new DC Comics New 52 that means six stories in an anthology of young love for the 21st century, superhero-style. So this adds Young Romance to other long-lost classic titles recently resurrected for the New 52, including All Star Western, Mystery in Space, G.I. Combat and Worlds Finest. Maybe it\u2019s time for DC Comics to keep those trademarks in order? No matter, the February 2013 issue of Young Romance does what it needs to, featuring personal glimpses of key characters Catwoman, Batgirl, Aquaman and Mera, Apollo and Midnighter, Nightwing, and Superman and Wonder Woman.\nYoung Romance features work by a slate of top DC Comics creators. The best of these is Ann Nocenti and Emanuela Lupacchino\u2019s look at Catwoman\u2019s first encounter with Batman in \u201cThink it Through,\u201d and Cecil Castellucci and Inaki Miranda\u2019s Victorian ghost story tale of Aquaman and Mera in \u201cThe Lighthouse.\u201d Ray Fawkes and Julius Gopez offer a great looking Batgirl story with \u201cDreamer.\u201d \u201cSeoul Brothers\u201d features a story out of the Stormwatch series featuring Apollo and Midnighter written by Peter Milligan with art by Simon Bisley. The Dick Grayson story \u201cAnother Saturday Night\u201d was written by Kyle Higgins with art by Sanford Greene, and the Superman/Wonder Woman story \u201cTruth or Dare\u201d was written by Andy Diggle with art by Robson Rocha.\nTags: Andy Diggle, Ann Nocenti, Apollo and Midnighter, Aquaman and Mera, Batgirl, Catwoman, Cecil Castellucci, DC Comics, DC Comics retro titles, DC Comics Young Romance, Emanuela Lupacchino, Inaki Miranda, Julius Gopez, Kyle Higgins, Nightwing, Peter Milligan, Ray Fawkes, Robson Rocha, Sanford Greene, Simon Bisley, Superman, Wonder Woman, Young Romance, Young Romance anthology, Young Romance one-shot\nNew JLA member Katana begins her own monthly series today\nFirst appearing in DC Comics in 1983, the character of Katana, formerly a member of Batman\u2019s Outsiders, was rejuvenated as a member of the Birds of Prey in the New 52 last year, replacing Barbara Gordon/Batgirl as the third team member. If you haven\u2019t seen her before, what you need to know is that Katana\u2019s real name is Tatsu and she has been busy seeking vengeance against the Yakuza for killing her husband. With her trusty Soultaker sword by her side she\u2019s a force to be reckoned with, and she will be featured as a newer breed of superhero in the new Justice League of America beginning next week with Justice League of America Issue #1 (not to be confused with the Justice League series). But if you want to get an early look at Katana, you can pick up Issue #1 today of her own new monthly series. We at borg.com previewed Issue #1 this week and think this series will be an interesting and unique addition to the New 52 line-up.\nWritten by Ann Nocenti with art by Alex Sanchez, the story is packed with the spirit of ancient Eastern influences, swordplay and mysticism. Nocenti counts herself a fan of Akira Kurasawa and Katana\u2019s story will be familiar to fans of his films. Artist Alex Sanchez has created a modern yet ancient-inspired fictional setting in his Japantown, part of San Francisco. DC Comics has shared with borg.com some original art pages from Katana, Issue #1 reprinted here.\nTags: Alex Sanchez, Ann Nocenti, Birds of Prey, DC Comics, Justice League of America, Katana, martial arts, New 52, original comic art\nDC Comics re-ignites Green Arrow comic book series today with writer Jeff Lemire\nToday DC Comics switches gears with its New 52 Green Arrow title, with writer Jeff Lemire and artist Andrea Sorrentino re-starting the series in a new storyline called \u201cThe Kill Machine.\u201d Lemire is best known for taking the obscure DC Comics character Animal Man and turning his story into one of DC Comics\u2019 best reviewed series. Italian artist Andrea Sorrentino is best known for his haunting run on the New 52\u2019s I, Vampire, and his great covers for a short X-Files comic book series, with a style he seems to be carrying forward in Green Arrow Issue #17, released at comic stores everywhere today.\nWith Issue #17 Lemire seems to be taking some tips from the Berlanti/ Guggenheim/ Kreisberg playbook. Their highly successful Arrow TV series on the CW Network follows Oliver Queen as he deals with the events he faced on the mysterious island where his yacht Queen\u2019s Gambit marooned him, and where he honed his physical skill as archer and fell into his current psychological state. The TV Oliver Queen is echoed in Lemire\u2019s lead character although differences show through\u2013Lemire\u2019s Oliver seems a bit younger and impulsive whereas the TV Oliver relies on his charisma and is more measured in his actions. But you can\u2019t say more about that by way of comparisons with only one issue to go on. Fans of the Arrow TV series should keep an eye out for a familiar villain element in this first issue.\nAn example of some of the excellent past cover art of Italian artist Andrea Sorrentino.\n\u201cThe Kill Machine\u201d finds Oliver responding to the loss of Queen Industries by the trustee managing the company since his father\u2019s death\u2013his father\u2019s best friend. Lemire is overtly giving his Oliver a clean slate, destroying the world Oliver knows and removing any relationships that might reveal Oliver as anything but a lone wolf. In this way it will be interesting to see how much of Mike Grell\u2019s original stories of the urban archer shine through. Grell\u2019s Oliver, through dozens of issues of amazing stories beginning in the late 1980s, was the last time the character was completely redefined. Can Lemire reinvigorate Green Arrow and still keep true to the character\u2019s long history? He has developed several issues beginning with Issue #17 so we will learn the answer as we keep up each month with the series this year.\nTags: Andrea Sorrentino, Animal Man, Ann Nocenti, Dan Jurgens, Freddie Williams II, George Perez, Green Arrow, Green Arrow 17 review, Harvey Tolibao, Jeff Lemire, JT Krul, Keith Giffen, Mauro Cascioli, Mike Grell, Neal Adams, original comic art\nWinick and Williams\u2019 Green Arrow leads off DC Comics\u2019 Zero Month\nAs the world\u2019s biggest Green Arrow fan I have seen it all when it comes to the Emerald Archer. My preference has always been for the 1970s Oliver Queen by Denny O\u2019Neil and Neal Adams, but I soon grew to love Mike Grell\u2019s urban hunter version set in Seattle, and later became a believer in Phil Hester and Ande Parks\u2019 run, especially when joined by Judd Winick\u2019s new spin on Speedy.\nI spent the entire night awake waiting in line at San Diego Comic-Con this summer to see the preview of the new CW Network series Arrow, about a younger Oliver Queen. I think it is going to be a successful series that will rival the CW\u2019s Smallville or Supernatural. Admittedly I have not enjoyed the first year of Green Arrow in the New 52 for various reasons I\u2019ve discussed here before. So I was looking forward to seeing the Captain Atom team of Judd Winick and Freddie Williams II taking on Green Arrow in the one-shot Green Arrow #0 released this week.\nTags: Ande Parks, Ann Nocenti, Arrow, Birds of Prey TV series, CW's Arrow, Denny O'Neil, Flash TV series, Freddie Williams II, Green Arrow, Judd Winick, Mike Grell, Neal Adams, Phil Hester, Stephen Amell\nMystery in Space\u2013Vertigo re-ignites classic sci-fi title\nIt really comes down to one thing. Is the art of Ryan Sook, the superb cover artist for series like Justice League Dark, good enough to cause you to spend $7.99 for an 80-page comic book? Let\u2019s come back to that.\nAs you may know, Vertigo is an imprint of DC Comics, known for stories targeted at mature readers, including elements of stepped up violence, sexuality, horror and just plain controversial subjects not easily absorbed by the mainstream audience. Mystery in Space is a classic comic book series beginning in the 1950s, known for great sci-fi stories including stories featuring Adam Strange. Suspense and intrigue were key to the original series, and they often had the feel of Twilight Zone stories.\nAlong with titles like G.I. Combat and Worlds Finest, DC has been making the best of grabbing readers through a little bit of nostalgia, and the title and classic cover of the one-shot anthology Mystery in Space #1, in the style of the original 1950s series, is step one in reeling new readers in. As with short story anthologies, the challenge is whether a writer can really put together a narrative with a beginning, middle and end that can be compelling, exciting, and original, in just a few pages.\nThe new Mystery in Space is good. Good enough that it leaves the reader wanting more. Sure, not every entry in an anthology will be great or even good. That\u2019s the beauty of an anthology\u2013if it\u2019s good there will be something for everyone. But there is no reason DC cannot continue churning out anthologies like this of classic themed sci-fi stories.\nThe book starts out with a bang, and the first story \u201cVerbinksy Doesn\u2019t Appreciate It\u201d is a great story about a cyborg with an unwanted cybernetic arm and a classic storytelling session among typical guys in a bar. Written by Duane Swierczynski and illustrated by Ramon Bachs, the story blends alien abduction and The Matrix. Smart and dark, at 8 pages, Bachs conveys panic and emotion nicely.\nGreen Arrow: Year One and Adam Strange writer Andy Diggle joined forced with artist Davide Gianfelice on \u201cTransmission.\u201d Billions of lives are at stake in a Star Trek Voyager \u201cYear of Hell\u201d throwback, with a female ambassador taking on a computer that rules all like HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Quick plot movement and a satisfying resolution highlight this as one of the best stories in the set, although it ends off the mark a bit. I\u2019d love to see more books drawn by Bachs and Gianfelice. Gianfelice\u2019s giant star map room is evocative of Data\u2019s star room in Star Trek Generations.\nWriter/artist Ming Doyle serves double duty on \u201cAsleep to See You,\u201d an account of two women pulled apart by time and space. At one level the life and times of a flight attendant of the future, it packs a surprising amount of emotion and delivers a classic Twilight Zone resolution of the happy ever after variety. A simple story, written in a simple style, Doyle proves you don\u2019t need a lot of blatant sci-fi elements to have a successful sci-fi story.\nProbably the weakest of the anthology is Ann Nocenti\u2019s \u201cHere Nor There,\u201d which spends too much time with clever dialogue and not enough time with character development. Fred Harper\u2019s unique style didn\u2019t work for me, at least tied up with this story. Not awful, just one to read and then move on.\n\u201cThe Elgort\u201d is a story more fantasy than sci-fi, and I really liked the adventure story by writer Nnedi Okorafor and artist Michael Kaluta. Like Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, it follows a girl flying across a strange land with varying levels of beastie threats. A little Avatar and a little Predator, this story has a cool feel and interesting voice.\nWriter Steve Orlando provides a cool glimpse at a coming of age story for centaurs in some far away place in \u201cBreeching.\u201d Artist Francesco Trifogli illustrates a tale reflecting a culture not unlike Mr. Spock\u2019s Vulcan race, struggling with the question \u201cam I a man, or am I a horse?\u201d Not a lot of resolution but themes of loyalty and conformity are well-played here.\nProbably the most controversial of the bunch, \u201cContact High\u201d covers a love triangle among three astronauts on a space mission, and the inevitable result when idle minds in tight quarters erupt against each other. A psychological mini-drama, Robert Rodi and Sebastian Fiumara tell their story effectively, with Fiumara\u2019s art and need special effects renderings the better part of the team-up.\nKevin McCarthy and Kyle Baker\u2019s \u201cThe Dream Pool\u201d is full of action but the over-wordy story and big-eyed girl art put this at the bottom of the anthology. There\u2019s probably a good story here but it feels like the creators would have been served by fleshing out the story and art better\u2013it seems a bit rushed.\nSweeping colors, simple concepts and epic level weirdness puts Mike and Laura Allred\u2019s \u201cAlpha Meets Omega\u201d among the best of Mystery in Space. Amazingly they deal, again in only a few pages, with the most heavy of concepts in a refreshing way, that will leave readers hopeful in the face of loss.\n\u201cVerbinksy Doesn\u2019t Appreciate It\u201d and \u201cAlpha Meets Omega\u201d really perfectly bookend the anthology, illustrating some good editing thoughts went into this compilation.\nSo, back to the first question: Is the art of Ryan Sook good enough to cause you to spend $7.99 for an 80-page comic book?\nThe answer is yes, as I hesitated before buying this issue, but Sook\u2019s awesome blending of fantasy and science fiction with this seventeenth century Valkyrie with archaic or steampunk tools painting a star map inside the hull of her spacecraft, pushed me over the edge. Luckily what resides inside the covers does not disappoint.\nTags: Andy Diggle, Ann Nocenti, Davide Gianfelice, DC Comics, Duane Swierczynski, Francesco Trifogli, Fred Harper, G.I.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archive: Florian Lukas\nRupert Grint stars as downed WWII pilot in Into the White\nFiled under: Movies \u2014 1 Comment\nHarry Potter fans were happy to see Daniel Radcliffe break away from his successful wizard role and into his first major adult dramatic role in the creepy The Woman in Black one year ago. It was a fun film that we reviewed here. Now we finally get to see Rupert Grint, the actor who played Potter\u2019s pal Ron Weasley, on the other side of the color spectrum in his first adult dramatic role in the World War II film Into the White.\nNorwegian Director Petter N\u00e6ss has created a WWII film \u201cinspired by a true story\u201d and not based in an epic battle, but between two opposing airplane crews that shoot each other down over Grotli shortly after the beginning of the war. Three Germans, played by Florian Lukas (Goodbye, Lenin!), David Kross (War Horse), and Stig Henrik Hoff (The Thing (2011)), and two Brits, played by Lachlan Nieboer (Downton Abbey, Torchwood) and Grint are stranded in the snow-covered mountains of Norway. They find a cabin and must learn to deal with each other and survive the elements. Less of a typical war movie and more of a struggle between opposite ideologies, this looks like you\u2019ll find some battles over tensions and claustrophobia among the airmen.\nTags: Daniel Radcliffe, David Kross, Florian Lukas, Into the White, Into the White preview, Into the White trailer, Lachlan Nieboer, Petter N\u00e6ss, Ron Weasley, Rupert Grint, Stig Henrik Hoff, The Woman in Black",

        "title": "So ... what? - The Verse-Chorus pairing",
        "raw_content": "So ... what? - The Verse-Chorus pairing\nThere's a funny kind of relationship between a verse and a chorus, in my opinion. The idea is that a verse leads to the chorus, or alternatively, to the hook line at the end of the verse, in an AABA song. So the verse doesn't really stand entirely on its own. Think, the Zen of verses -- one hand clapping. You need the chorus, or the hook for verse to really make its full impact. Which also makes verse one uniquely vulnerable, because you haven't heard anything about the chorus and the hook yet.\nFor every verse that follows the first use of the hook, you have that chorus in the back of your mind, which provides a little extra seasoning for the meaning of the verses. Before that? Those initial lines carry a lot of extra weight and responsibility, because they have to hold your listener's ear and lead them to the chorus and the hook, to sweep them along, like an unexpectedly strong river current, as you move from \"So...\" to \"What?\" As in \"So What?\" Why should I care? What are you saying to me?\nSound of two hands clapping. Or many hands ... if we're lucky.\nEvery verse in this little model carries the So. As in ...So? (What happens next?) So? (What are you gonna do?) So? (Why should I care?) And the chorus slams the meaning of the verse and song home.\nSo ... what? So ... (That's) What! ! Like that. Every time we work through a verse-chorus pairing, it's like pounding in a nail: the meaning gets clearer, and the message sinks deeper. By the time we reach the end of the song, we've said what needed saying, repeated what needed repeating, and shed fresh perspective (or provided a musical palate-cleanser) via a bridge. Bang. Bang. Bang. So-what? So-what?. So-what?\nMy theory? At the end of the day, everything in your song has to have a purpose. It serves the \"So?\" Or it serves ... What ?\nDavid Keeble Lanark\ninhale - exhale. Can't have one without the other.\ninhale - exhale.\nCan't have one without the other.",

She asked in particular what Scheer plans to do to protect transgender people who might be more likely to experience anxiety and depression.\n\"We need to absolutely have a partnership between federal government, provincial government, local health authorities to start looking at that,\" he said. \"It's no less important than physical challenges someone's facing.\"\nOne questioner cited the case of Gerard Comeau, the man who lost a legal battle to move beer across the Quebec-New Brunswick border.\nScheer said stopping free trade across provincial borders is a mistake.\n\"I don't believe the federal government should be empowering provincial protectionism,\" he said, telling people to \"stay tuned.\"\n\"We're going to have a series of policies that speak to tearing down provincial trade barriers not just because in terms of goods and services but also to allow companies in one province to work in another province.\"",

It\u2019s nice to give the people who\u2019ve seen us throughout our careers something to watch.\u201d\nBoth profess to be in top shape.\nFarah, who claimed the British record with his 2:06:21 for third in April\u2019s London Marathon, hopes to eclipse Norwegian Sondre Nordstad Moen\u2019s European record of 2:05:48.\n\u201cFor me satisfaction will be to run a personal best,\u201d he said.\nRupp, who clocked 2:06:07 at Prague in May, also wants to go faster.\n\u201cThis is probably the best situation I\u2019ve ever been in to run fast,\u201d said the 32-year-old American, who won last year\u2019s race in 2:09:20. The U.S. record is 2:05:38.\nKenyans Brigid Kosgei, the 2017 runner-up, and Florence Kiplagat, a two-time Chicago winner, will likely headline the women\u2019s field along with Ethiopians Roza Dereje and Birhane Dibaba. All have run 2:20 or better.\nWet weather, however, could affect racing. There is a 50 percent chance of showers.",

        "raw_content": "CHW Settles Medicare, Medi-Cal Fraud Suit for $10.25M\nCatholic Healthcare West has agreed to pay $10.25 million to settle a whistle-blower lawsuit alleging that the hospital chain's Mercy Healthcare Sacramento unit inflated Medicare and Medi-Cal reimbursement claims, the Sacramento Bee reports. The settlement covers allegations that CHW submitted claims for nonreimbursable physical exams, billed physician referrals as \"more expensive\" consultations and filed claims for \"undocumented\" lab work. Attorneys for George Baca, a former CHW employee, filed the case in 1998. After noticing Medicare claims that he considered to be \"inflat[ed],\" Baca notified superiors and was allegedly told \"not to communicate with anyone ... concerning compliance of Medicare billing issues.\" As part of the settlement, Baca will receive $2 million. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Hirst said, \"This is a case of systematic submissions of false claims. The evidence showed a deliberate choice, made at the highest levels, not to disclose [Medicare overpayments]. The whistle-blower was told not to discuss the false billings with anyone.\" Under the terms of the settlement, CHW admitted no wrongdoing. William Hunt, CHW's chief operating officer for the Sacramento region, attributed the problem to a series of \"billing errors involving two of our affiliates. He added, \"We are committed to complying with all applicable government rules and regulations\" (Walsh, Sacramento Bee , 5/17).",

As a family office, we understand the importance of developing and nurturing a legacy that withstands the test of time. We offer our clients sophisticated solutions whilst practising transparency and independence.\n2008 \u2013 Global Financial Crisis\nDue to one of the world's worst financial crises, as considered by many, numerous financial institutions were badly affected. High-net-worth families who invested with these institutions lost their investments and assets along with the collapsing market.\nThrough such a disaster, a concept was formed. Its aim was to protect investments and assets of a high-net-worth family by providing structured services and solutions that were tailored according to the family and benefited them entirely. It was with this concept that Castle Family Office was founded, in Russia.\n2009 \u2013 Castle Family Office\nCastle Family Office started off as a single family office. As a regulated entity in Russia, the company provided financial advisory, wealth planning and asset management services to a single high-net-worth family, protecting the investments and assets of the family from market uncertainty.\n2011 \u2013 Castle Family Office Becomes a Multi-Family Office\nFrom the successful structuring and managing of the single family office, more high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth families came to realise the importance of protecting their wealth. Our network broadened resulting in the expansion from a single family office to a multi-family office. In addition to our core services, we began providing an array of lifestyle services such as alternative investments, concierge and lifestyle and legal support, amongst others.\n2013 - onwards \u2013 Global Development\nOver time, our portfolios increased and with it, Castle Family Office expanded and branched out to have a regulated entity in the United Kingdom and our headquarters in Singapore..",

        "raw_content": "Insulin resistance in the vasculature\nKieren J. Mather, \u2026 , Helmut O. Steinberg, Alain D. Baron\nInsulin resistance is typically defined as a reduced ability of insulin to induce glucose uptake by target tissues such as fat and skeletal muscle cells. It accompanies several disease states, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, hepatitis C, and polycystic ovary syndrome, and is a primary feature of metabolic syndrome. Outside of its effects on blood glucose levels, insulin resistance is also associated with a 2- to 3-fold increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. In 1996, Alain Baron, Helmut Steinberg, and colleagues demonstrated that insulin resistance is associated with endothelial dysfunction. This seminal observation led to significant advances in our understanding of insulin\u2019s action in health and disease.\nKieren J. Mather, Helmut O. Steinberg, Alain D. Baron\nLinking endothelial dysfunction with endothelial cell activation\nJames K. Liao\nThe thin layer of cells that lines the interior of blood vessels, known as the endothelium, plays a complex role in vascular biology. The endothelium mediates blood vessel tone, hemostasis, neutrophil recruitment, hormone trafficking, and fluid filtration. Endothelial dysfunction, as defined by a lack of NO, has been linked to a variety of disease states, including atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia. Indeed, restoration of endothelial function is one of the earliest recognizable benefits of statin therapy. In 1995, James Liao and colleagues published a study in the JCI demonstrating that NO is a vascular protective factor that limits endothelial activation and prevents leukocyte adhesion to the vessel wall.\nFrom an ACE polymorphism to genome-wide searches for eQTL\nFlorent Soubrier\nAngiotensin I\u2013converting enzyme (ACE, or DCP1) is a zinc metallopeptidase that converts angiotensin I into the vasoactive and aldosterone-stimulating peptide angiotensin II and cleaves bradykinin into inactive peptides. Plasma ACE measurement is widely used for the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. While enzyme concentrations are highly stable in an individual, there is a high level of interindividual variability. In 1990, we identified an insertion/deletion polymorphism in ACE that functions as a quantitative trait locus (QTL), accounting for half of the interindividual variability. Since then, technological advances have allowed for the elucidation of expression QTLs (eQTL). Such studies are allowing researchers to determine how underlying genetic predisposition contributes to human disease.\nBetter tools for assessing osteoporosis\nB. Lawrence Riggs, \u2026 , Sundeep Khosla, L. Joseph Melton III\nSome 30 years ago, we applied the newly described method of dual photon absorptiometry (DPA) to demonstrate that osteoporotic women with vertebral fractures had lost substantially more bone from the vertebrae than controls. This opened a whole new field of research into the determinants of bone loss and fractures in the axial skeleton and set the stage for subsequent development of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT), which are now the standard methods for assessing osteoporosis severity and treatment efficacy.\nB. Lawrence Riggs, Sundeep Khosla, L. Joseph Melton III\nAutoantibodies, autoimmune disease, and the birth of immune diagnostics\nEng M. Tan\nThe appearance of autoantibody to DNA followed sequentially by the disappearance of anti-DNA and appearance of DNA antigen in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus demonstrated that autoantibodies participate in immune complex\u2013mediated pathogenesis. Continuing studies showed that autoantibodies are also useful biomarkers in clinical diagnosis and important reagents for elucidating the structure and function of intracellular proteins in cell biology. Recently, autoantibodies to tumor-associated antigens have been identified in cancer, and these findings have expanded the field of cancer immunodiagnostics.\nTLRs and IFNs: critical pieces of the autoimmunity puzzle\nArgyrios N. Theofilopoulos\nDiscoveries revealing the molecular basis of innate immune responses, particularly the identification of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) as the major recognition sensors for microbial and even self-molecules, have provided new insights into the pathogenesis of both systemic and organ-specific autoimmune diseases. These insights will permit the development of novel treatment modalities for these disorders.\nComplement, oxidants, and endothelial injury: how a bedside observation opened a door to vascular biology\nGregory M. Vercellotti, \u2026 , Charles F. Moldow, Harry S. Jacob\nA single encounter with a dialysis patient led to the study of complement and neutrophil aggregation, which in turn spawned our work and the remarkable development of the field of vascular biology. As our understanding of these cellular interactions and the signaling pathways involved in these processes has expanded, so has our appreciation for the broad impact of this work on an array of human diseases.\nGregory M. Vercellotti, Charles F. Moldow, Harry S. Jacob\nLiver function from Y to Z\nIrwin M. Arias\nIn the 1960s, my lab was interested in understanding how bilirubin and other organic anions are transferred from the plasma through the liver cell and into the bile. We performed gel filtration of liver supernatants and identified two protein fractions, designated Y and Z, which bound organic anions including bilirubin, and thus we proposed that they were involved in hepatic uptake of organic anions from plasma. Subsequently, the Y and Z proteins responsible for this binding activity were purified, cloned, and sequenced. Y was identified as a member of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) protein family and Z found to be a member of the fatty acid\u2013binding protein (FABP) family. These proteins have since been shown to have additional surprising roles, but understanding of their full role in physiology and disease has not yet been achieved.\nMalonyl-CoA: the regulator of fatty acid synthesis and oxidation\nDaniel W. Foster\nIn the catabolic state with no food intake, the liver generates ketones by breaking down fatty acids. During the nocturnal fast or longer starvation periods, this protects the brain, which cannot oxidize fatty acids. In 1977, we published a study in the JCI noting the surprising realization that malonyl-CoA, the substrate of fatty acid synthesis, was also an inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation. Subsequent experiments have borne out this finding and furthered our understanding of molecular metabolism.\nDegranulation deconstructed\nRobert L. Baehner, Morris J. Karnovsky\nPediatricians first described the clinical features of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in 1959. Almost a decade later, in a collaborative effort that crossed disciplines, we participated in the discoveries that defined the cellular deficiencies of CGD, specifically finding that improper degranulation of leukocytes did not explain their failure to fight pathogens, rather that the fundamental defect was due to problems in the unique NADPH oxidase system of phagocytizing leukocytes. In the years that followed, the subunit components and structure of NADPH oxidase and their translocation during leukocyte phagocytosis to form the active enzyme were well described, leading to the identification of the component genes, the mapping of their chromosomal locations, and their subsequent cloning. This remarkable progress has led to effective therapies, including bone marrow transplants and gene therapy, that would have been unimaginable when we began.",

        "raw_content": "Literary Superstars And Their Achievements\nOver the years, France has had quite a number of literary superstars who have gone on to win very prestigious awards and make many achievements. Their literary work is iconic and read in many parts of the world. Below is a list of some of the iconic French literary superstars and their achievements.\nPhilip Roth image\nStarting from the most current literary achievement, Philip Roth, a Frenchman who however has never lived in France first received the insignia of Commander of the Legion of Honor in the year 2013. They ceremony held at the French embassy in New York saw Roth walk away with a prestigious award for his great literary work.\nIn the month of October 2017, Philip Roth, the author of American letters again received one of the most prestigious and coveted awards in the literary world. This award, rarely awarded is an accolade that recognizes Roth as one of the best living French authors today. The privilege rarely extended to living authors, is a great honor to Roth. Now Roth will have all his literary work displayed in the \u201cPleiade\u201d. Pleiade, published by Editions Gallimard, aims at displaying the beauty of both the world and French literature. This move makes Philip Roth a member of the pantheon, a place only reserved for greatest writers.\nOther revered authors in the Pleiade are Vielle Charite, Jules Verne, and Honore de Balzac among many others.\nArguably, Marcel is one of the most celebrated French literary superstars. His 3200 page novel \u201cIn Search Of Lost Time\u201d was a masterpiece and it still is. Graham Greene said this about Marcel\u2019s novel \u201cit is the greatest novel of the 20th \u2013 century\u201d and Somerset added by saying \u201cit is the greatest fiction to date\u201d\nPhoto of Honore de Balzac\nWith his literary work at the Pleiade, Honore de Balzac is one of the most celebrated French authors. Born in 1799, Balzac published his first novel Le Pere Goriot in 1835. He wrote a record 91 novels in the course of his career and many short stories. La ComedieHumaine, his serial novel did very well and it still does. He was the first French author to use fiction to define the prevailing situation at a particular time in the history of his country.\nAnother literary superstar was Emile Zola, a playwright, a journalist, and a novelist. In the 19th \u2013 century, he was arguably the most prominent French novelist. Besides being a great writer, he was also a political activist and a critic. He has a huge collection of book titles to his name.\nThe above superstars are some of the many literary superstars that have many accolades to their great literary work. Even though they are long gone, their work continues to shine making their names live forever.",

His Gameboy was taken away by his teacher and he wasn\u2019t even playing with it in class like the other boys. When we asked him what he learned from the whole circumstance, he calmly replied, \u201cLife isn\u2019t fair.\u201d Wow! Fifth grade is pretty early to be making that observation. Sometimes you\u2019ll hear people demand justice or complain about not being treated fairly. One of the things we need to come to grips with is that grace is never fair or just. In fact, it\u2019s counterintuitive for us \u2014 unless, of course, we personally need the mercy. It\u2018s God\u2019s prerogative to extend His grace when and how He wishes. Can you imagine what our life and future would be like if we got what we deserved or if God was \u201cfair\u201d? That\u2019s what makes grace so amazing!\nPrevious Previous post: INVESTING WISELY",

        "raw_content": "Have you ever partied all night only to realize you have a drug test for your upcoming interview the very next morning? I have been in your shoes, and honestly, beating a urine drug test is the easiest of them all.\nThere was this one time I got tipped on Saturday evening that I would be taking a urine drug test to keep my job. My hangover became an instant non issue, and I began to think of how I was going to get my system clean, in such a short notice!\nSo I started looking all over the internet, trying to figure out a way for that mess to go away.\nThere was so much of information. I became overwhelmed.\nThen, I stumbled upon TestClear and it looked legitimate to me. After ordering overnight shipping for the fake urine kit I passed the test and swore to be loyal to TestClear. It was a close call and I\u2019m glad I could do that.\nThis powdered urine was my short term solution. The procedure itself was too very easy. Once you get it in the mail, all you have to do is follow their easy instructions or you can find them on the website.\nI am a chronic drug user, and it takes a few hours before these drugs get out of my body. So there was no way a detox was going to work for me, given the short notice.\nThe reviews claimed a 99% success chance, and the orders were shipped very quickly. At this point I knew that it was what I needed. As a self declared father of beating the system and passing random urine drug test, I highly recommend them.\nSo do not risk your money on counterfeit products that will fail you. I\u2019ve heard horror stories of people failing by trying their own home remedies or using synthetics that were detected. Why take the chance when you have a tried and tested solution?\nDrug tests are today a standard procedure in most companies and organizations. This is irrespective of whether it is legal or illegal in that particular state/country. In most cases, THC is usually the main culprit that is being sought after.\nDo you got a drug test coming up? Worried that it could mess up your employment or whichever situation that you are in? Then you are in the right place. This article will provide you with the different types of drug tests and how to pass each of them. Remember, there are different ways to test for all sorts of different types of drugs. Familiarizing yourself with all of them gives you an upper hand in passing any test that comes your way.\nBut before we get to the different types of tests and how to pass them, you need to know how long these drugs stay in the body. The life cycle of THC is said to be between three to four weeks according to Healthline. This, however, varies depending on the frequency of use and the amount consumed. For first-timers, marijuana can be detected in the body within a duration of 5 to 8 days whereas, for daily users, it can be detected in a span of 49 to 63 days.\nAlmost all other drugs besides marijuana or THC last less than 7 days in your system.\n(from drugs.ie)\n1. Passing a Urine Test\nA urine marijuana test is also as popular as the saliva test. However, it is not as easy to pass as the above method. A urine drug test is conducted in a laboratory. This, therefore, means that if you don\u2019t play your cards right, you are likely to fail. This type of marijuana drug test can detect THC in 30 days.\nBut, a urine test shouldn\u2019t worry you. There are ways on how you can pass this test. One of them is by use of actual human urine. The fake pee should be able to imitate real pee. That is it should be of the right temperature, color and chemical composition. You can get real powdered human urine from leading brands and platforms such as TestClear. The product does come with a manual on how to use it. TestClear is a great source to get powdered urine that actually works and doesn\u2019t fail like synthetic urine.\nAlternatively, some products can help you cleanse urine of THC. Wondering which among the two is the best way to pass a urine marijuana drug test? I would recommend powdered urine. It\u2019s more effective and gives you a 99% chance of passing.\n2. Passing A Saliva Test\nThis is the most popular type of testing that is being conducted in most workplaces. Its popularity is as a result of its convenience and accuracy in tracing any drugs. It\u2019s done with the aid of a cotton swab that collects a sample of saliva. Its then put in a test tube which if it turns color, the results are concluded as positive.\nTo pass this test, you will need the help of a mouthwash cleansing product. It will help keep your saliva clean for at least 6 hours. Alternatively, you can conduct a natural detox that is by avoiding smoking for 72 hours. This is because almost all drugs can only be detected in saliva for a maximum of 72 hours. But just to be sure, I highly recommend using a mouthwash cleansing product.\nThere are other two types of drug tests, but they are not as common as the urine and saliva test. They are:\n\u2022 Passing a Hair Test \u2013 You should be relieved that marijuana hair tests are rare. It\u2019s because this test is capable of determining if you did use in the past couple of months or years. The best way to pass this test is by using hair detox products like shampoos. Other alternative is shaving all your hair, or bleaching your hair can result in an automatic failure which is quite unrealistic.\n\u2022 Passing a Blood Test \u2013 The odds of you ever encountering such a test are slim because it is quite expensive and time-consuming. However, in the case you are scheduled for such, a marijuana detox product like Toxin Rid (that we highly recommend) will help you pass with no problems.\nAre you worried sick about the upcoming test? Are you afraid of losing your job or failing on that job opening? The above are ways on how to pass the different types of drug tests. All of the products that we have linked to are ones that we have tested and recommend to all people who come to us in order to pass a drug test. Good Luck.\nhttps://www.healthline.com/health/how-long-does-weed-stay-in-your-system\nhttp://www.drugs.ie/drugs_info/about_drugs/how_long_do_drugs_stay_in_your_system/\nNext Article The Best Shampoos for Passing Hair Follicle Drug Tests",

        "raw_content": "President Clinton's Remarks to Seattle Farmers, Students, and Officials, December 1, 1999\nTO FARMERS, STUDENTS FROM THE SEATTLE-TACOMA\nAREA WHO STUDY TRADE, AND AREA OFFICIALS\nWeyerhauser Facility\nTransit Shed - Terminal 5\nThe Port of Seattle, Washington\nTHE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. Good afternoon. John, thank you for your introduction and thank you for your example. I want to say a little more in a minute about the points that you made, but I thank you for being here.\nThank you very much, Patricia Davis. And I'd also like to thank the other people from the Port here and the American Presidents line who gave me a tour earlier of the Port and how it works, with the rail and the trucking systems of this area. I thank you, Secretary Glickman and Secretary Slater, who's also here, for your support of trade; and Senator Murray, who had to go give another speech; Congressman McDermott, Congressman Inslee, from here in Washington.\nWe have a very large delegation from Congress. I'd like to ask all the members of Congress who are here to please stand, so you'll see what the level of interest is. (Applause.) We have representatives from the House and the Senate, from the Republican and the Democratic Parties here. And we're very glad to be in Washington State, Governor Locke, and in Seattle, Mayor Schell. We thank you for hosting us.\nI thank all the other farmers who are here. And I'd like to say a special word of welcome to the children who are here, who are part of the WTO Trade Winds program.\nLast year, Seattle sold $34 billion in exports to foreign markets, making it the largest exporter among all American cities -- everything from airplanes to apples. The control tower I just climbed, therefore, offers an interesting vantage point, not only of what was once a condemned toxic waste site and is now a wonderful, flourish economic asset; but in a larger sense, a vantage point of the 21st century world that I think we ought to be building for our children.\nIt's a perfect place to talk about what we came here to the WTO meeting in Seattle to do -- to open markets and expand opportunities, not only for our people, but for people all around the world; from the world's newest business, e-commerce, to the world's oldest business, farming. We came to talk about trade, and to talk about trade in the context of an increasingly globalized society.\nNow, I want to say just a few words about all the rather interesting hoopla that's been going on here. We need to start and ask ourselves some basic questions: Do you believe that on balance, over the last 50 years, the United States has benefited from world trade? I do.\nThere wouldn't be nearly as many family farmers left in America as there are today -- with all the mechanization and the modernization -- if we hadn't been able to sell our products around the world, because we can produce more at higher quality and lower cost than any other country in the world, in so many products. Today, we have about 4 percent of the world's people. We enjoy about 22 percent of the world's income. It is pretty much elemental math that we can't continue to do that unless we sell something to the other 96 percent of the people that inhabit this increasingly interconnected planet of ours.\nNow, if you look at where the farmers in our country are today -- whether they're row crop farmers like most of them in my home state of Arkansas, growing soybeans and rice and cotton and wheat; or people who grow fruit in Washington State, or vegetables here and on the East Coast -- one of the biggest problems we've got is low prices because of the Asian financial crisis. And it's been a terrible burden. In addition to low prices, many of our farmers have been victimized by terrible, terrible weather problems. And, finally, they deal with market after market after market where they could sell even more than they do if the markets were more open.\nI personally believe for the farmers who are in our national farm programs, we're going to have to adjust our national laws if we are going to stop having an annual appropriation of the surplus that's as big as what we've been doing over the last couple of years. But, over and above that, for the farmers -- like the people that run our apple orchards that aren't in the farm programs, we've got to keep fighting to open these markets.\nNow, we do that against a background of people who are raising more and more questions about the global trading system and about the process of globalization in general.\nWhen I see all these people in the streets here, I'd like to point out that among a lot of people who are peacefully protesting here in the best American tradition, are protesting in part because the interests they represent have never been allowed inside the deliberations of the world trading system. And I went all the way to Geneva last year to talk to the WTO to tell them we had to change that, we needed to open this system up.\nFor most of the last 50 years, trading issues, when they were finally decided, were the private province of CEOs, trade ministers and the politicians who supported them. Now we know we have to continue to open markets, we're reaching out to places like China. We're trying to do more with developing nations. We're trying to build more partnerships with governments and industry and labor and management. But we can't do any of it unless there is a broader consensus on trade that reaches deep into our country and to other countries.\nSo I say that for those who came here to peacefully make their point, I welcome them here because I want them to be integrated into the longer-term debate. To those who came here to break windows and hurt small businesses or stop people from going to meetings or having their say, I condemn them; and I'm sorry that the mayor and the governor and the police officers and others have had to go through this. But we need to make a clear distinction between that which we condemn and that which we welcome. (Applause.)\nI'm convinced we do have to open the WTO and the world trading system to greater public scrutiny and to greater public participation. Because unless real people, like this apple farmer from Washington, can say, this is how I fit in the global economy, this is why my family and I are better off than we otherwise would be, over the long run we're not going to be able to continue to bring the world together, which I think is important to America economically and I think it is very important politically that we continue to work closely with countries and encourage them to follow good rules of law and adopt good economic policies and to be good neighbors and not hostile neighbors.\nThere are a lot of opinions being expressed here among a lot of the folks that are out in the streets, and representatives of groups that I will meet with later today, that I do not agree with. But I am glad that there is such intense interest in this meeting, because it shows that people really do care about this now; and, therefore, trade decisions, like other decisions we make in the Congress and in Washington and in the state houses around the country, have to become part of the democratic process.\nYou know, every elected official here will tell you that there are some decisions that you really have to consult heavily with the people you represent before you make, and other decisions you know they've just sort of given you a contract on. They say, oh, well -- the people in North Dakota, I know, Congressman Pomeroy or Senator Conrad, and I don't understand that issue very much, but whatever decision they make is okay with me because I trust them.\nAnd it's not that way any more here, with trade. We have to bring people into this tent. And we have to do it in an effective way. But I think, at least for people like me -- and I haven't even succeeded in bringing harmony, I know, within my own party about this -- but I do not see how we can have the country and the future we want unless America continues to be a leading force for expanding trade -- expanding markets for goods and services; expanding the reach of international commerce; doing it on fair and decent terms; being sensitive to the burdens that the poorest countries have; and understanding that, while a concern for labor or the environment could be twisted to be an excuse for protectionism, it is not wrong for the United States to say we don't believe in child labor, or forced labor, or the oppression of our brothers and sisters who work for a living around the world. And we don't believe that growing the economy requires us to undermine the environment.\nYou know, you just look at this port here. What they're doing with multi-modal transportation here is saving huge amounts of energy, dramatically reducing greenhouse gas emissions as it promotes economic growth. You're going to see the growth, in my opinion, in the next several years of alternative fuels, much of it coming out of America's farming areas, which will dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce global warming and accelerate economic growth. So I strongly believe that if we want to get everybody together and move forward, we are going to have to listen to people who have legitimate economic concerns, legitimate environmental concerns, legitimate labor concerns.\nBut one of the things that I think we've got to be clear on, everybody has to decide, do you think we are better off or worse off with an increasingly integrated global economy where productive Americans have a chance to sell their goods and services and skills around the world. I think we're better off. That's the number one core decision we ought to make up our mind as a country we agree about. (Applause.)\nNow, I want this new trade round at the WTO to be about jobs, development, and broadly shared prosperity and about improving the quality of life and work for ordinary people all around the world. It isn't right for me to ask for the good things I want for America's working families without wanting to provide those opportunities for others who are willing to work for them.\nThe impact of this round could be quite profound. Since the first trade round 50 years ago, we've cut major nations' tariffs on manufactured goods by 90 percent. During the same period, global trade has grown fifteen-fold, nd we've seen the most rapid, sustained economic growth -- not just in the United States, but throughout the world -- in any period of human history, because we're working together.\nAre there difficulties? Are there problems? Are there disagreements? Of course, and there always will be. That's why you have to have some system to resolve them. Whatever system you adopt, will there always be a mistake made by somebody, somewhere, sometime? Of course. We're all human.\nBut we need to keep our eyes on the objective, and increasing economic cooperation is in the interest of the ordinary citizens of the United States and the rest of the world. If we expand access, and we do it on fair terms, and we're sensitive to the legitimate difficulties these poor countries face, we can also advance the cause of the environment and labor conditions without it becoming a shield for protectionism and trying to take unfair advantage of countries that are poorer than we are. I believe that.\nBut, again, let's keep our eyes on the big issue: we cannot grow the American economy in the 21st century unless we continue to sell more to a world that is prospering and that is more connected, increasingly, in information technology and travel -- not only with us, but with everyone else in the world.\nThe typical American -- let's just take apples, for example -- the typical American eats 20 pounds of fresh apples each year. And this is a pander to Washington state, I am not the typical American; I eat more. (Laughter and applause.) This is a pander, I admit.\nBut the typical European consumes about 46 pounds of apples a year. So America exported $353 million worth of apples last year. More than a quarter of the total, 46,000 metric tons, were shipped here, from Seattle -- Red Delicious from the Lake Chelan region; Granny Smiths from the Columbia Basin; Winesaps, Fujis, Galas grown in Washington state, boxed and bound for Mexico, Malaysia, and more than 40 other countries around the world.\nI have worked very hard to open these markets. We opened the Japanese market for the first time to Washington State's apples in our administration. Then we fought to get the barriers down in Washington, in Mexico and elsewhere. And we're making some progress.\nBut it is very important to recognize -- go back to John, or go back to -- those of us who come from farming states. Farmers are the lifeblood of our country. They are better at what they do, thank goodness, than any group of people on Earth. But we cannot preserve family farms unless we sell more of what we grow to more people around the world, because the structure of agriculture we have, to make a living, has to produce a lot more food than all of us can consume.\nAnd that is a good thing. That can be a gift to the rest of the world. It can free other countries to work on what they need to do -- to develop the capacities of their people, to focus on diversifying their own economies. And we have to find a way to reach agreements to do that.\nFive years ago, we joined with our trading partners to put agriculture on the WTO agenda. We made some progress then; we pledged to come back and do more. Today, our agenda here is to fight and win for the family farmers of the United States. (Applause.) We want to level the playing field. We don't want any special preferences. We just want agriculture to be treated as fairly as any other sector in the global economy.\nI know that's long overdue and I believe it is the due of every farm family in America, whether an apple farmer in the Cascades, a banana farmer in the Cameroon, any farmer deserves a chance to compete. It is not just American farmers that would be benefitted from this. Some of the poorest countries in the world would get the biggest benefits out of this trade round if we continue to tear down barriers to agricultural exports. They shouldn't have to compete against state-owned enterprises, restrictive regulations, the size of other countries' government grants.\nIn the European Union, for example, which accounts for 85 percent of the world's agricultural export subsidies, half of the overall budget is spent on agriculture. Now, I appreciate their support for their rural communities. We've always wanted to support our rural communities. But we have to work out a system going forward where everybody can do what they do best. And then people have to be given time and support and investment to make the transitions into the new economy. That's all I'm asking for and that's all I would ever ask for, for people here in the United States.\nWe have to lower tariff barriers; they're too high. On average, official rates abroad are five times as high as they are here in America. Taking apples as an example, it was just mentioned tariff rates are 45 percent in Korea and 30 percent in China. One of the reasons that our people in our economic team, Charlene Barshefsky and her group and Gene Sperling when they went to China, they negotiated a steep cut in the tariff in China to 10 percent by the year 2004. That's more apple sales from Washington. It will help more family farmers.\nWe will also work to reduce domestic supports that don't support trade, so much as distort it by paying farmers to overproduce and drive prices down -- and we see that in a lot of places in the world. That should not be the case. We know that our farms can produce a vast and varied supply of food at affordable prices in a way that helps to reduce hunger and malnutrition around the world. We also should see that the promise of biotechnology is realized by consumers as well as producers in the environment, ensuring that the safety of our food is guaranteed by science-based and absolutely open domestic regulations. And we should maintain market access based on sound science.\nI want to say to the people of Europe and all around the world, I would never knowingly permit a single pound of any American food product to leave this country if I had a shred of evidence that it was unsafe and neither would any farmer in the United States of America. (Applause.) I say to people around the world, we eat this food, too, and we eat more of it than you do. Now, if there's something wrong with anything we do, we want to know about it first. But we need to handle this in an open, honest way.\nIt shouldn't be just about politics and emotionalism and short-term advantage. We need an open system. There is a reason we have confidence in the federal bodies that analyze the safety of our food. They may not be perfect, but nobody believes they are in anybody's hip pocket. They are the world's best experts. We have an orderly, disciplined system here for evaluating the safety of not only our food, but our medicine. And we ask all of our trading partners to do the same and to deal with us in a straightforward manner about this.\nBut everybody must understand we have nothing to hide and we are eating this food, too. Nobody is trying to do anything under the table, in secret, in an inappropriate way. But neither should our farmers be subject to unrealistic delays and unfair discrimination based on suspicion unsupported by the latest scientific examination. Let's handle this in an open, fair, scientific way. That's the right way to do this. (Applause.)\nNow, after I leave you, I am going to go meet with the trade ministers that are here from more than 100 countries. It's a great honor for Seattle, for the State of Washington and for the United States to have these people come here and to try to come to terms with a lot of these very difficult issues. I want to talk about how we can make sure that ordinary working people all across the world feel that they have a stake in an improving global economic system. I want to assure them that we have to do what is necessary to make sure that economic competition lifts people up everywhere.\nNow, there are people, again, I say, who honestly believe that open trade stacks the deck against ordinary people. Thirty percent of the growth we've gotten in this country, 30 percent, between 1993 and the time of the Asian financial crisis, came because of expanding trade. We had some pretty good farm years in there too, folks. It's hard to remember it's been so bad the last year or so, but we had some pretty good years.\nAnd we have got to figure out a way not only to sell the idea but to make it real, that we can continue to pursue these objectives in a way that lifts people's quality of life up and lifts the ordinary living standards for people throughout the world. We can do that.\nNow, let me finally say that I know these questions won't be easy. One of the things I've learned in all trade cases is that it once again reaffirms the wisdom of the Italian Renaissance political philosopher Machiavelli, who said -- I'm paraphrasing here, but this is almost exactly right -- he said, there is nothing so difficult in all of human affairs as to change the established order of things. Because the people that are going to win will always be somewhat uncertain of their gain; whereas, the people who will lose are absolutely sure of what they are going to lose.\nSo this will require some amount of imagination and trust and humility and flexibility. But if we're going to have a world, rule-based trading system, then we have got to make it work for ordinary folks. But we in America, we have to take the lead in continuing to make the main point. The world is a better place today after 50 years of more open trade than it would have been if we hadn't had it. Americans are better off today after 50 years of open trade than they would have been if we hadn't had it.\nAnd what has helped us will help the poorest countries in the world, the wealthy countries and the countries in between if we find a way to continue to draw together, and to deal with the legitimate concerns of the legitimate protestors in the streets of Seattle.\nAnd, you know, to me it is a very exciting time. This is a high-class problem, and we ought to treat it as a 21st century challenge worth our best efforts. If we do, I think we'll get a good result.\nEND\t1:00 P.M. (L)",

        "raw_content": "HOME >> Product 0199 >> SEEDS OF ANGER>>\nSEEDS OF ANGER\nSeeds of Anger follows the life of a high school junior whose police officer father has been shot in the line of duty and whose mother is dying of cancer. Worst of all, the property that has been in his family for three generations is being split up for development. A renegade botanist on the hunt for new herbal medicines moves in across the street and uses the large open property to cultivate the plants he needs for his research. He takes the boy and some of his friends to work as his assistants and trains them to be scientists. For three years, he mentors them and pushes them to grow beyond what they would have expected of themselves.\nHowever, when the botanist's past indiscretions catch up with him, everything changes and the boy must decide if he is to take charge and face the danger or walk away.\nSilent tears trailed down Sonny's face as he watched the movers work on the house across the dirt road from where he sat on the front porch of the old \"Florida Cracker\" style house he had grown up in. Someone was moving in over there. He knew he was too old to be crying like a baby. His friends, what few he had, were chasing girls and getting ready for college, but what was left of his life was falling apart in front of him. His worst fears were coming true. When Sonny and his mother had broken up the twenty acres his grandfather had bought for his new bride half a century ago into five acre lots, Sonny had known in his heart that some day they would get the land back. The separation was temporary and he could live with it. Or so he thought. They needed the money. His dad was gone and his mom was sick and he was too young to work. All they had was the land and since they could not farm it, they had to lease it out\nWhen the developer had leased the three lots other than the one Sonny's house stood on so he could build houses, Sonny believed it was temporary and he could live with it. They needed the money.\nWhen the developer had started to build the first house, Sonny believed it was temporary and he could live with it, although he did secretly wish that it would burn down and the developer would give up. But he knew they needed the money and as long as the developer was developing, they would have income.\nThe developer abandoned the partially built house when the bottom fell out of the housing market and the property reverted back to them. Sonny was thrilled. They had their land back, but they still needed the money.\nThen a real estate agent had stopped by asking about the empty, partially built house. He said he had a client willing to lease the house even unfinished as it was. Not only that, but he wanted the other two vacant lots as well. Sonny did not know what to think, but they needed the money and high dry lakefront property even this far away from town was hard to come by.\nSonny's mother had signed the lease. The new tenant had paid the first year's lease in cash and had set up an escrow account with a local attorney for the second year. Sonny was surprised by that, but the agent had said it proved he was honest. To Sonny's way of thinking, it proved the opposite. Only someone up to no good would pay in cash. Why would someone pay in cash for that much land? Still, the money was a good thing. They were guaranteed that they would have enough money to live on for two years. Maybe after that they would get the land back. He could hope.\nSonny heard the screen door open and close. His mother sat beside him on the porch swing. He looked at her. She was pale. Her hands trembled as she settled on the swing. It was not a good day.\n\"How are you feeling, Mom?\" Sonny looked at the folds in her gown where her breasts had been and sighed.\n\"Not one of my better days,\" his mother said softly. She stared at the movers across the road for a moment. She looked at Sonny and sighed. She hated giving up the land as much as he did. \"At least the rent will cover our bills for a while. Without my insurance from work and your Dad's pension, we would have run out of money long ago.\"\nSonny tried to be brave and said, \"Tomorrow will be a better day.\"\n\"We can hope, Sonny. We can hope.\"\nThat had been one his father's favourite expressions. Whatever resoluteness Sonny might have had in the face of his mother's illness dissolved. Whenever his mother repeated the saying that Sonny's father had used so often, Sonny thought about his father gunned down in a madman's shopping mall shooting spree. \"Do you miss him? Do you miss Dad?\"\nSonny's mother stifled a sob. \"Every day. I miss him when I wake up in the morning and he's not there. I miss him when we sit to dinner and his chair is empty. I miss him when I go to bed at night and I know he won't slide between the sheets trying not to wake me, but knowing he does every time. Most of all I miss him after my treatments. When I was pregnant with you and sick so much he would hold me and comfort me and remind me how much he loved me.\"\n\"Why did he have to die?\" Sonny whimpered as any semblance of strength he might have had flowed away.\n\"If he had not stood up that day, how many other people would have died? He did what he had to do. You know that.\"\n\"I know, it's part of being a policeman. But why him?\"\n\"There's no answer. We've been over this again and again. Sonny, you have to move on. You need to stand on your own.\"\n\"And why did you get sick? Is God mad at us? Did we do something wrong? Are we being punished for some sin?\"\n\"Sonny, don't do this to me. I need you to be strong like your father.\" She choked on the words. \"Your father would want you to be strong.\"\n\"But I'm not strong. Look at me. I look like a skeleton. My joints stick out like I have no muscles at all. I can't play sports. I'm too clumsy and I can't lift anything because I'm too weak. I'm not like Dad, I can't be Dad. I'm sorry.\" Sonny put his face in his hands and cried.\n\"Sonny, what did your Dad always tell you? Strength is not in your body. It's in your mind.\"\n\"I know, but I can't be like that. I'm not strong.\"\nShe looked at him for a second and then said, \"The characters in those books you read all the time, are they strong?\"\n\"Some are.\"\n\"Are they strong physically or mentally?\"\n\"Some of both.\"\n\"Sonny, you're smart. You're one of the smartest kids in school. Can't you see how important that is?\"\n\"Mom, school's easy. This is hard.\"\n\"I know, but you have to use that strong brain of yours to get you through it.\"\nThe movers closed the doors on the shipping container that dominated the yard across the road. Once he had verified his load, the driver attempted to pull out without hitting the big old oak tree that loomed over the corner of the driveway. The turn was tight and the driver had to make several manoeuvres before he could get the container on its trailer out to the graded road. For fifteen minutes Sonny and his mother sat silently watching the driver and the two movers who helped him extricate the container from the driveway. When they heard the truck accelerate on the hard packed, unpaved roadway beyond the end of their property Sonny turned to his mother and said, \"Did the real estate agent tell you where this guy was from?\"\n\"Must have come from overseas someplace.\"\n\"His stuff came in a sea container and not in a moving van. If he came from the US, Canada or Mexico he would have trucked his stuff here. That container was on a ship.\"\n\"I see those containers on trains and trucks all the time.\"\n\"I know, but that's because they came off a ship.\"\n\"Why would someone bring their stuff from overseas to live here? There is nothing here than anyone who has been anywhere would want to live here for.\"\n\"Yes, there is and someday you will see that.\"\nSonny looked at his mother for a moment. The late afternoon light made her look even paler than when she had first sat down. \"Mom, would you like me to make dinner?\"\n\"If you think you can do it.\"\n\"Mom, I can handle mac and cheese.\"\n\"Yes, please. I would love for you to make dinner.\"\nhigh school, police officer, duty, cancer, anger, renegade, boy, research, scientist",

The project was called Do 1 Thing, a team effort of Covenant House and the Heart Gallery of New Jersey.\nIn a 24-hour period at Covenant House shelters across the country, from Washington to Los Angeles and New York to New Orleans, people got involved in a variety of activities, from collecting donations to working in the clothing room to serving lunch to the kids.\nAnd it was all documented by award-winning photographers, videographers and writers organized by the Heart Gallery. They all donated their time.\nCovenant House spokesman Tom Manning told Catholic News Service yesterday that he was \u201cgrateful and humbled\u201d by the efforts of everyone involved.\nThe Heart Gallery was launched in 2005 by Najlah Hicks and Pim Van Hemmen and some of the nation\u2019s top photographers to use images to tell the stories of foster children available for adoption \u2014 \u201cbecause everyone deserves a family,\u201d as the gallery\u2019s motto says.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Wanted: Humble shepherd, clear communicator, world traveler\nProtecting children: How loving families, strong social support can help \u2192\nTwo saints\u2019 feasts \u2018can cure our amnesia\u2019 on immigration\nHere is a reflection written by the vice president of mission for Catholic Extension, a national Catholic fundraising organization based in Chicago that builds churches and aids the Catholic Church in America\u2019s poorest places. Looking ahead to two important feast days this month, he looks at five timely lessons from our nation\u2019s immigration history.\nCHICAGO \u2014 St. Patrick\u2019s Day and St. Joseph\u2019s Day are fast approaching. These two feast days continue to be big celebrations for two Catholic ethnic groups that flocked to our American shores as immigrants in large numbers over the last two centuries: the Irish and the Italians. When the Irish mark St. Paddy\u2019s Day and the Italians honor St. Joe, they celebrate not only their Catholic faith but also their national heritage.\nThis year especially, before we unthinkingly put on our green shirts for the Irish March 17 or our red sweaters for the Italians March 19 or 20, we should pause to remember the past and the lessons it teaches us.\nSt. Joseph with the Infant Jesus by Guido Reni.\nWhile it seems cliche to say that \u201chistory repeats itself,\u201d these two feasts evoke very real and very unkind memories of what our immigrant ancestors endured. Their tenuous status in a new land was strikingly similar to what immigrants experience today.\nThe Catholic Church in America has always been and continues to be a largely immigrant church. The organization I work for, Catholic Extension, has an enormous stake and interest in this important conversation. Just as we built churches and provided support for Irish immigrant mining communities in the 1910s, we are today doing the same for Latino immigrant farmworkers in the 2010s.\nOn this year\u2019s feast days of St. Patrick and St. Joseph, let us take a stroll down a less-than-rosy memory lane to see how some of yesterday\u2019s immigrant groups were greeted as they fled their countries. Perhaps this historical remembrance can shed new light on our current national discussions and attitudes about immigrants and immigration.\nLesson No. 1 \u2014 Do not forget that St. Joseph, Mary and Jesus were a refugee family\nWe start this history lesson by going back to the very beginning of our story as a Christian people, by looking at the life of St. Joseph and the family entrusted to his care.\nSt. Joseph was a dreamer who listened to the angel\u2019s warning in his dreams to take the child Jesus to safety in Egypt. The Holy Family became refugees trying to escape King Herod\u2019s jealous violence in their homeland. Jesus, whose life was saved by this flight into Egypt, in turn, became a DREAMER in the modern sense \u2014 someone whose parents took him to a foreign country as a small child. The Scriptures do not tell us whether Joseph had secured the proper visa paperwork before taking his entire family across borders to Egypt.\nPerhaps it was Jesus\u2019 own experience as a vulnerable child refugee that helped shape his teaching in the Gospel of Matthew, when he proclaimed, \u201cWhatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me\u201d (25:40).\nOn Feb. 14, 20 Catholic bishops from the southern U.S. border region signed on to a powerful joint pastoral letter that began by recalling that the Holy Family was a refugee family, not unlike many of the people fleeing violence today. This biblical event has moral implications for us today. Therefore, the border bishops state, \u201cAs a church we reiterate our commitment to care for pilgrims, strangers, exiles, and migrants affirming that all persons have a right to live in conditions worthy of human life.\u201d\nSt. Joseph, patron of the church and head of a refugee household, pray for us!\nLesson No. 2 -\u2013 Remember that you, too, were once strangers in a strange land (Exodus 23:9)\nA Harper\u2019s Weekly cartoon from 1871 depicts a savage-looking Irish immigrant whose lawless ways threaten to destroy the United States. Holding a bottle of booze in one hand and a torch in the other, he is about to carelessly light a keg of \u201cUncle Sam\u2019s Gun Powder,\u201d terminating our country.\nThe article accompanying this cartoon encouraged its readers to defend their country against the immigrant aggressor, saying \u201cShould the Orangemen ever parade in New York, let the citizens who feel aggrieved at the violation of our laws and institutions take whatever measures they choose into their hands to uphold the laws, if they care anything about their country.\u201d Translation? Be a patriot by defending against the un-American Irish.\nIn a Jan. 29 statement, Bishop Anthony B. Taylor, who leads the largely immigrant Diocese of Little Rock, Arkansas, said: \u201cYou and I are children of immigrants who were not much different from those of today. Our ancestors came here because they saw the United States as a beacon of hope, a place to escape the poverty and tyranny of the Old World, \u2026 and they are the ones who made our nation great.\u201d He went on to say that those \u201cwho persecuted the Irish Catholic potato famine immigrants of the 1850s, they made our nation small.\u201d\nSt. Patrick, patron of Ireland and its 70 million Irish diaspora, pray for us \u2014 and revive the memory of our important story!\nLesson No. 3 -\u2013 Building walls is not a new idea\nWhat is ironic about our current public debate is that exactly 100 years ago the U.S. Congress passed the Immigration Act of 1917. That law included a literacy test \u2014 a figurative wall, as depicted in a Puck cartoon from 1916 \u2014 to keep out certain immigrant groups, especially the Italians.\nIn those days Italians were arriving by the millions and were seen as diluting the Anglo-Saxon purity of the U.S. Just as past generations developed ways to try to keep many of our Catholic ancestors out of this country, a new wave of immigration prevention measures is emerging today, driven by the same fear that our cultural purity, our values and national identity are at risk of being overwhelmed by immigrants.\nBishop Joe S. Vasquez of Austin, Texas, the chair of the U.S. Catholic bishops\u2019 migration committee, said in a January 25 statement, \u201cInstead of building walls, at this time my brother bishops and I will continue to follow the example of Pope Francis. We will \u2018look to build bridges between people, bridges that allow us to break down walls of exclusion and exploitation.\u2019\u201d\nSt. Joseph, protector of migrant families past and present, pray for us.\nLesson #4 \u2013 Immigrants stealing our elections is a recycled fear\nAn 1840s cartoon illustrates the fear stoked by the anti-immigrant and anti-Catholic Know-Nothing Party that Irish and German immigrants were running away with the ballot box, a charge that sounds eerily familiar to all of us today.\nOn Feb. 12, Cardinal Blase J. Cupich of Chicago, chancellor of Catholic Extension, stated: \u201cIn days not so long ago, our ancestors were victimized as anti-immigrant fears were whipped up, giving rise to quota laws, church burnings, beatings and voting restrictions. Our crime? Adhering to a religion that was foreign and thought to be seditious, a threat to the nation. In hard economic times, we were often made into scapegoats and suffered discrimination because of where we came from and what we believed.\u201d\nCardinal Cupich\u2019s unvarnished historical recollection helps give us renewed perspective on what our ancestors were up against as new immigrants.\nOn March 17, as we sip our green beer, let us not forget that St. Patrick himself was kidnapped and sent as a slave to a hostile foreign country, a fact that gives new meaning to the traditional prayer we attribute to him. His beautiful prayer surely graced the lips and hearts of many Irish-American immigrants who at one time lived in a foreign country where they too were met with great hostility:\nThrough God\u2019s strength to pilot me \u2026\nThat may oppose my body and soul.\nSt Patrick, pray for us!\nLesson No. 5 \u2014 Religious groups that we are suspicious of today will give rise to great citizens\nIn spite of the Know-Nothing nativist party\u2019s insistence otherwise, Catholic immigrants and their descendants ultimately proved to be good citizens of this nation.\nCatholics have reached the pinnacle of leadership in the executive (President John F. Kennedy), legislative (Speaker of the House Paul Ryan) and judicial (Chief Justice John Roberts) branches of government. They were able to simultaneously profess Catholic faith while taking an oath to defend the Constitution \u2014 something the nativists denied to be possible.\nIn an 1870 Harper\u2019s Weekly cartoon, Pope Pius IX is hovering over and controlling the mind of a witless, servile immigrant who is threatening the separation of church and state by busily stitching the two back together. Lady Liberty is in chains.\nCatholic immigrants were branded as \u201cpapists\u201d who were blindly loyal to a foreign power. But it turned out that Catholics could indeed become good Americans.\nLearning from our own history, perhaps we Catholics may want to give the benefit of the doubt to other religious groups that are looked upon with great suspicion today.\nCatholics proved that religious people are not ideological radicals or easily coerced throngs that will destroy the integrity or safety of this nation.\nPope Francis, on Sept. 24, 2015, in an address to a joint meeting of Congress, told our nation\u2019s leaders: \u201cWhen the stranger in our midst appeals to us, we must not repeat the sins and the errors of the past. We must resolve now to live as nobly and as justly as possible, as we educate new generations not to turn their back on our \u2018neighbors\u2019 and everything around us.\u201d\nSt. Patrick and St. Joseph, pray that we may never forget our story, and give us the strength to help those who are persecuted, as we were once persecuted. Amen!\n1 Response to Two saints\u2019 feasts \u2018can cure our amnesia\u2019 on immigration\nm patrick says:\nI notice that you stay clear of the term \u201cillegals\u201d. Shame on you! It is better to call a spade a spade. You seem to refer to all coming into the country from other lands as simply immigrants, whether they deserve the term or not. I grow weary of hearing the term \u201crefugees\u201d when referring to the flight to Egypt by Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. That was another time when borders were not so much a security issue, such as today. I don\u2019t recall any \u201cillegals\u201d requesting \u201crefugee status\u201d either before entering our country, or even after entering. We can\u2019t give them refugee status if they don\u2019t request it. Illegals need to vacate at their own expense. They have already committed a crime coming here, or overstaying their visa. consult your Catholic catechism; inside it states that immigrants are expected to follow the laws of the country they are entering. They broke the law just entering illegally.",

The experiment took place in the Raytheon Integrated Defense System (IDS) Joint Mission Experimentation Environment (JMEE), which is used for complex modeling and simulation. The JMEE is located at IDS Headquarters, Tewksbury, Mass.\n\u201cThis experiment overlays the realism of what comes easy and what we struggle with when going through the decision-making process,\u201d said Kim Babcock, project manager at the USCG R&D Center. \u201cToday was invaluable \u2013 this is what we cannot get out of reading reports and white papers.\u201d\nThe simulated scenario looked at the decisions and actions taken to locate a specific vessel of interest and prevent a potential terrorist incursion. The joint experiment was a collaborative effort to investigate the potential implementation of conceptual command center decision support tools to enhance maritime security.\n\u201cOur ability to conduct this experiment in real time, with the servicemen and women who will eventually use these systems, is an important step in determining the viability of new capabilities and tools,\u201d said Lee Silvestre, vice president, Raytheon IDS Mission Innovation. \u201cOur first job is to keep our nation safe and secure. Our collaboration with the United States Coast Guard demonstrates our commitment to developing systems and capabilities that address the emerging needs of today and tomorrow.\u201d\nThe experiment used Raytheon\u2019s Mission ProfilingTM process to investigate the potential for conceptual future decision support tools and concepts of operations to improve a USCG District Command Center\u2019s maritime security mission. Several promising decision support tools and concepts were identified that show potential for further investigation.\n\u201cI know from personal experience how difficult it can be to locate these maritime security targets,\u201d said IDS Mission Innovation Systems Engineer and retired USCG Capt. David Spillman. \u201cIt is personally rewarding to work together with the Coast Guard to find new and better ways to find these security targets as we continue to protect our nation\u2019s coastline. This experiment has been a great success, as well as a lot of fun.\u201d\nIn September 2007, Raytheon IDS\u2019s Mission Innovation team and the USCG R&D Center signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA), allowing both entities to share research resources to evaluate concepts for next-generation command center decision support tools. This exercise was the first joint experiment to occur under the CRADA.\nIntegrated Defense Systems is Raytheon\u2019s leader in Global Capabilities Integration providing affordable, integrated solutions to a broad international and domestic customer base, including the U.S. Missile Defense Agency, the U.S. Armed Forces and the Department of Homeland Security.\nTags:Integrated Defense System \u00b7 Raytheon",

        "title": "This has been going on for years...when is Koodo/Telus going to fix the weak signals in the Blossom Park area?? | Koodo Community",
        "raw_content": "This has been going on for years...when is Koodo/Telus going to fix the weak signals in the Blossom Park area??\nI keep calling Koodo, approximately every six months, and they keep filling my ears with joyful noise about how things will get better. Well, it isn't. Years of this has finally pushed me so far that I'm ready to jump ship. All my friends in the Bank Street from St. Bernard to Queensdale Avenue in Gloucester, Ontario (Ottawa) on both Telus and Koodo have been becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the horrible service we are receiving from our carriers. Pretty words on the phone isn't going to cut it much longer. Someone has built (or is in the process of building) what looks to be some sort of communications tower behind the Tim Hortons near Queensdale Avenue, but if it's a Telus/Koodo tower, it's certainly not live. I can't send texts without sending them in triplicate, in hopes ONE will go through. I can't go to the strip mall off Queensdale Avenue and use my phone, my data, nothing. I can't trust my cell not to drop calls mid ring. I can't trust my cell to ring with a phone call, only the voicemail activates. I can't trust my cell to get text messages as they're sent. I get them hours later sometimes, and most of the time, if it's another Koodo member, they're in duplicate. I've held on this long, HOPING someone was going to address this area's issues, but I'm just about out of patience. Wind is offering a plan that's cheaper, that guarantees me coverage out here, and that isn't going to drive me to drink, or anger me so deeply with the frustration of a useless Iphone that I've almost thrown it at the wall a few times. Yes, it's that bad. So...community board responder guy/girl...can I get a STRAIGHT answer on why this area is so wrought with issues? Why I get three bars that will immediately turn to no service or one bar within seconds of trying to initialize a text? Or why I should remain with a cell phone provider that is doing anything but actually providing me with the service I'm paying for. I think the 672$ you make annually off me entitles me to a little more respect for my problem than the pat on the head I continually get from the BC call centre I have complained to over since the day I moved into this neighborhood. If anyone else lives past Albion Road and Bank Street, in and around the Blossom Park area in Gloucester, please, I welcome you to add to this thread. It's high time Koodo/Telus did their business, or get off the proverbial pot, cos the smell of what I've been receiving up til now isn't too pleasant. Pass the Febreze!\nwww.tazzybehr.com\nno resolution forthcoming\nThe vast majority of us here are customers like you and I doubt anyone is going to be able to give you an answer regarding your area. That said if wind is telling you get coverage from them why not just simply switch Dave?\nI get that you want the service to improve in your area and that you think just because you bring it to Koodo's/Telus' attention that they should 'fix it', but that's not how these things work. If the investment isn't worth it, they won't jump through hoops to improve the service in the area. There are other areas that might need improving more than yours. You pay them $672 a month... Do you know how much it is to build a tower? $672 a month for the rest of your life wouldn't cover it. You need to see this from both perspectives, not just yours and the minority of people in your area. However, you will not get an official answer here in regards to this. It's just a waiting game until they do or don't improve the service.\nTwo reasons. One, I really like the customer service (even though I've gotten a lot of lip service with this one issue) with Koodo. Second, I KNOW if I go to Wind, I'm going to get the opposite of good service from their agents. I'm HOPING that Telus/Koodo get their act together and fix this issue out here. It's a sore spot with not just me, but a large number of people in this area, I've learned over the last four months from conversations, etc, with other customers in the same boat. I've got a good grandfathered plan with Koodo, and yes, Wind can do better financially, and yes, the phone is likely going to work better with them, but the thought of dealing with bad phone agents....and I'm a customer service rep, which makes it all the worse, well, it's enough to have me just not use a cell, period, if that's my only option. Hate Bell with a passion (used to work for them), Rogers has the same poor signal quality out here, so, Wind, if I absolutely am forced to leave, is unfortunately, my only option, save giving up my left arm, I mean cellphone, period.\nLOL. 672$ annually I wrote. If I paid that a month, I'd expect a solid gold phone case...LOL. The tech I talked to last fall told me there was an open file for this area, and about 3000 people had complained of the same issues I'm having. And...this area is being built up very very quickly, with upper middle class home owners so it's not going to make good financial sense for Telus/Koodo to sit and wait until they've gotten their brand dragged through the mud in my humble opinion. If you say they never read these boards, then I'll have to find another forum to start trying to get their attention then. Thank you for the heads up. Won't waste my time and resources with this venue, will look towards promoting the problem and a resolution through maybe a webpage and through social media.\nOh, and I don't think it's a minority of people out here Amhad. In fact, I know it's not. The ONLY carriers that get signal out here are Bell and Wind. Roger/Fido and Telus/Koodo are both in the same weak signalled boat.\nOK. Last question, can I delete this thread? No point in leaving it here to be left hanging in cyberspace for no good reason.\nDave Metrix wrote:\nOK. Last question, can I delete this thread? No point in leaving it here to be left hanging in...\nKoodo reads all of these and may get to the right folks after all. I wouldn't delete it.\nPerhaps the article below will shed some light on this situation. The article from the Ottawa Community News dated February 28, 2015, mentions: http://www.ottawacommunitynews.com/news-story/5447446-cell-antenna-system-proposed-for-blossom-park-dealership/ \"Before the installation goes ahead on the roof of the Donnelly Ford Lincoln dealership at 2496 Bank St., Telus must have its municipal concurrence application approved by the city. Public consultation is required in this process, as set out by Industry Canada, which regulates radio-communication and broadcasting antenna systems\". A public information session was held at the Greenboro Community Centre on Feb. 19, 2015 by Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans and according to this article, \"No one from the community attended the meeting\". Public input on the proposed project was to be submitted in writing by March 5, 2015 to Novatech Engineering. I'm hoping that enough people submitted input on this proposal. I'm not sure if the location mentioned above coincides with the location you mentioned behind Tim Horton's, though the new tower location should provide better signal reception.",

        "raw_content": "The Cornell Daily Sun (https://cornellsun.com/2005/09/09/mens-soccer-to-host-colgate/)\nMen's Soccer to Host Colgate\nAn afternoon after its second straight loss to open the season, the men\u2019s soccer team was back on Berman Field practicing and preparing for its upcoming bout against Colgate. The Red will face its second in-state team in four days when it welcomes the Raiders to Ithaca tomorrow.\nWednesday night the Red put forth its second strong performance of the year, but once again fell short of victory. Although winless, the team has been far from a docile opponent in either of its first two games \u2013 the Red has taken a combined 21 shots at this point, compared with its opponents\u2019 total of 24. Consequently, according to head coach Bryan Scales, the rough start has not overly affected the team thus far.\n\u201cThe morale is still very good,\u201d Scales said. \u201cThey understand that their performance against Syracuse was much better than it was against Lehigh. Our connections are good, we looked really sharp in certain sections of the game \u2013 we had a couple of scrambles in the box that almost got us a goal, a diving header that was saved \u2013 so I\u2019m not real concerned at this point.\u201d\nAs is the case with any young team, time is often the best medicine for an ailing start. This Red squad \u2013 which features 13 new players \u2013 knows this firsthand.\n\u201cIt\u2019s tough though, because you progress as the season goes along,\u201d Scales said. \u201cI\u2019d love us to be a bit sharper in front of the net \u2013 it\u2019s something we work on a lot in training \u2013 but it takes time, and it\u2019ll come together. As guys play together more, they get their timing down better, and sooner or later things just start clicking. What\u2019s most important as a coach is seeing that your team is moving in the right direction, and I know that we are. It\u2019s important that the chemistry is good, the spirit of the team is good, and really all the guys are going out there competing like crazy. So I feel good even though we haven\u2019t gotten that all-important first win yet.\u201d\nThe Raiders have come out strong to start its season, posting an undefeated record of 1-0-1. Ranked No. 7 in the New York region, the team\u2019s success has been due to some outstanding play by its defense and goalie, as it is yet to surrender a score to the opposition. However, this strength in statistics does not scare the Red.\n\u201cOur guys make sure to take it one game at a time, one team at a time,\u201d Scales said. \u201cColgate is a terrific team coming in here, but our guys will go out there and compete, play hard and try and influence the way the game goes best they can.\u201d\nArchived article by Ben Kopelman",

There are so many avenues to be involved in online it is difficult to classify exactly where I, as an individual, fit in; and also, where you fit in. It is possible though to determine precisely how your use of social media fits into the grand scheme of things.\nConsider Forrester\u2019s Social Technographics. For me, I would fall partly under the \u201cCreator\u201d category with the majority of my time spent in the \u201cConversationalist\u201d category. I have created my own website, http://www.emilybaumgartner.com, which doesn\u2019t necessarily exist anymore because it was too expensive. I had this website for a year, but I\u2019ve moved on primarily because I can achieve the same results with free sites, such as http://about.me/emilybaum. So I have created some content online just not as much as people who may be fully involved with creating content, it\u2019s just not as appealing to other users as a funny YouTube video would be. However, I do aspire to be a full-blown creator one day, when I have more time to devote to creating content. As for the conversationalist ranking I\u2019ve bestowed upon myself, this comes mostly from my interactions on Facebook and Twitter. I talk with my friends, posting on their walls and tweeting at them and such. It\u2019s easier to be involved at this level because most people are. It\u2019s also a convenient level to be involved at because I am on par with my peers.",

        "raw_content": "OAK GLEN Celebration, near Enniskerry, County Wicklow\nThis joint Crann/Coillte event to celebrate Oak Glen\u2019s \u2018Coming of Age\u2019 (nominal end of planting 1992), took place at the Oak Glen site on Sunday 25th August 2013. This Family Day celebration was officiated by Paddy Woodworth, with a tree planting ceremony. We had great weather for the event and people enjoyed their picnics and a lovely day in the woods. The children (and the adults) enjoyed meeting Dale Treadwell, Albie\u2019s Nature Expert on \u201cThe Why Guy\u201d RTE jr children\u2019s show, with all his wonderfull bugs and beasties, not to mention his best friend and star of the show Scrappy aka \u2018Harry the Hedgehog\u2019.\nWe hope that people will continue to enjoy this wonderful woodland and get outdoors and explore, it\u2019s ours to enjoy and it\u2019s free.\nBackground: OAK GLEN is a joint project between Coillte and Crann to recreate an oak forest park in the area of Glencree where there was a Royal forest park in the 13th century. In 1990 the project was launched by Taoiseach Charles Haughey with the first tree being planted by President Mary Robinson and Bob Geldof planted the final oak in phase one the following year. Coillte undertook to manage the plantation, with sponsors and the general public having access rights under Coillte\u2019s Open Forest policy.\nInitial establishment costs were largely funded through sponsorship by many thousands of people of about 120,000 oak trees. These sponsors \u2018invested\u2019 through grid referenced certificates in groups of five young trees of which one, on average, would develop to maturity after thinning. It is planned to transfer the grid referencing to a GPS based grid which can be accessed through the Crann website \u2013 www.crann.ie \u2013 or directly through a smart phone link.\nLocation & Directions: Oak Glen \u2013 Cloon carpark \u2013 approximately 6.5 km west of Enniskerry on a 3rd class road to Glencree. Entering into Enniskerry village from the R117 (the twisty road from the N11) go to the right of the clock tower, and go straight on uphill and straight over a crossroads signposted for Glencree & also Oak Glen that has a fruit & veg shop on the left. Continue for about 6km until you reach the Cloon-Oak Glen car park. Note: If you find yourself at the entrance to Powerscourt, you are on the wrong road and must go back to the village centre to find the road to Glencree!",

The office has determined those materials do not enhance our investigation. Therefore, we intend to withdraw our subpoena to St. Louis Public Radio related to this incident.\u201d\nShe also noted that other media outlets that received subpoenas for information regarding the incident provided \u201cvaluable audio tape, video tape, photographs and other materials related to the meeting.\u201d\nEarlier this month, St. Louis Public Radio was mulling its response to the subpoena, and its lawyers were in talks with the circuit attorney\u2019s office. At the time, Tim Eby, St. Louis Public Radio g.m., told Current that \u201coften a news organization is the last resort to try to collect information for an investigation.\u201d But in this case, he said, the subpoena appeared to be filed early in the investigation and was a \u201creal challenge in terms of a free press.\u201d\nThe station revealed that the subpoena had been issued, despite a request from the circuit attorney not to do so. In an editorial, St. Louis Public Radio Editor Margaret Wolf Freivogel called the subpoena \u201cdisturbing,\u201d adding: \u201cWhen public interests are at stake, then public scrutiny and debate are essential. It\u2019s unreasonable to take action that could impinge on the ability of news organizations to serve the public, then ask that the public be kept in the dark.\u201d\nSt. Louis Public Radio received a subpoena Jan.",

The colours are great and the sound isn\u2019t too bad, the only thing letting you down being some sense of cheesy music that you can thankfully turn off in the menu.\nEquipped with both single and multiplayer modes, the main point of Rubik\u2019s Puzzle World is obviously to solve puzzles that come from the almighty cube. Our favourite randomly-coloured blocky friend is there as well as some other games, but it\u2019s probably best to talk about the cube to begin with.\nThe main puzzle mode allows you to solve a Rubik\u2019s Cube in a 3D simple world and can be entertaining if you\u2019re already someone who finds this compelling. If not, Rubik\u2019s Cube offers an interesting lesson to show you how to solve a Rubik\u2019s Cube. One of the more cooler parts of the game, this idea will help you to understand just some of the ways the Rubik\u2019s Cube can be beaten.\nIf that\u2019s not enough, Rubik\u2019s Puzzle World tries to be inventive by allowing you to play with not just the Rubik\u2019s Cube but other games inspired by the puzzle. You\u2019ll find a variety of puzzle themes that feel like they\u2019ve been inspired by other classic titles such as Breakthru, Columns, Dr. Robotnik\u2019s Mean Bean Machine, as well as a few others. The games all serve as decent casual fun but won\u2019t give you much more entertainment than that.\nStrangely, it doesn\u2019t have the lasting power of something like Tetris DS, an update to Nintendo\u2019s classic version of Tetris that brought the block dropping title into the 21st century. While it does have extra puzzles to play with, they\u2019re not on the same level that Tetris has as Rubik\u2019s Puzzle World\u2019s games are really just variations of one type of game without a whole lot of difference.\nIt\u2019s in this way that you can\u2019t help but feel that the developers have managed to create a game that manages to get in the way of its own sense of fun. Rubik\u2019s Puzzle World is not the sort of simple puzzle edutainment that it probably should be and while it can be entertaining, it can be easily dropped for something more worth your money.\nPublisher: Funtastic\nPlatforms: Nintendo DS, Nintendo Wii\nURL: Rubik\u2019s Puzzle World\nPrevious Post Nintendo enter the TV arena\nNext Post UK police get rights to hack personal PCs",

        "raw_content": "Cast: Colin Firth, Rachel Weisz, Ken Stott, David Thewlis\nThe name Donald Crowhurst may not mean much to many.\nBut The Theory of Everything's director is aiming to change that with this intriguingly melancholy and cautionary tale of hubris.\nA failing inventor and salesman in the 1960s, a contemplative Crowhurst (a sincere Firth) decides to take on the 1968 Sunday Times Golden Globe Race to prove something to himself and to leave a legacy.\nThe round-the-globe race would see the amateur sailor granted fame and his family and help boost their family out of the financial mire.\nSo, with a not sea-worthy boat and a headful of doubt, as well as saddled with debt, Crowhurst sets out to fulfill his burning desire to do something with his life.\nAnd along with a publicist plotting everything on land (a bullish Thewlis), Crowhurst finds the pressure building...\nThe thing about The Mercy is, much like Robert Redford's flashier All Is Lost, it's essentially all about the demons of a man left at the mercy of the elements and with only his own thoughts to spend time with.\nWhereas All Is Lost was a little more of a traditional film, complete with danger, The Mercy's melancholy is the one over-riding element, as it washes over in the final back half of the film.\nThe tragic atmosphere's greatly helped by Marsh's sound team, who amplify the creaking of the mast, the lapping of the sea and the constant drip of water to maximum effect, building a soundscape which goes some way to giving an insight into Crowhurst's descending state of mind.\nWhereas the first third of the relatively short film devotes an inordinate amount of time to telling backstory and simply presenting it with clunking ease, the rest of the film allows the actors the time to shine.\nParticularly Weisz, whose initial appearances as a supportive wife are thankless at best - and superfluous at worst.\nAside from one awkward CGI presentation of great swells which appears to be cast offs from Mark Wahlberg's The Perfect Storm, the simplicity of the presentation of life on the sea gives the ever-reliable and always relatable Firth the chance to offer a subtle and nuanced turn as the woefully inept Crowhurst starts to face the reality of his situation.\nDespite what Thewlis' PR person bellows early on, (\"it's a story of derring do, waiting to be told,\") The Mercy is not that kind of film.\nMaudlin and with some narrative edges that will require leaps if you're not familiar with the events that transpired for Crowhurst, it's a once over lightly psychological piece that skirts with the psyche of sailing rather than fully diving deeply in. Something which becomes deeply more evident in the film's final straight.\nThe Mercy never quite achieves the insight into Crowhurst that perhaps it's aiming for, but in translating the smaller details to the bigger screen, it's a little more successful than you'd expect, but also a little more disappointing if you're after something more substantial as it strays from its course.\nLabels: The Mercy: Film Review",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Cloud / Scaling Up: Google Building Four-Story Data Centers\nScaling Up: Google Building Four-Story Data Centers\nGoogle's new four-story data center on its cloud campus in Mayes County, Oklahoma. (Photo: Google)\nThe explosive growth of cloud computing has prompted Google to rethink how it constructs its data centers. To boost its cloud capacity, Google is going vertical with its server farms, shifting from a single-story design to four-story data centers.\nThe taller facilities allow Google to pack more servers into the same real estate footprint, providing more bang for its buck on each of its huge cloud campuses.\n\u201cIn many of our campuses we\u2019ve been doing multi-story buildings,\u201d said Joe Kava, Vice President for Data Center Operations at Google. \u201cThe new facility in Mayes County, Oklahoma is four stories, and our most recent building in Iowa is also four stories.\u201d\nDesign innovation is a critical piece of the cloud computing arms race, which is being waged with data centers. The new server farm design continues a major expansion of data center capacity at Google, which just announced plans to add 12 new compute regions for Google Cloud Platform over the next year.\n\u201cThe movement to cloud is really accelerating,\u201d said Kava. \u201cThere\u2019s only been a few inflection points like this in the history of IT. I believe we will look back and see this as an important moment. This is really a transformational time.\u201d\nCloud Economics Drives New Design\nGoogle\u2019s data center design evolution is driven by cloud economics. The company is relentlessly focused on economic efficiency in deploying new cloud capacity. Savings from a minor improvement in server design, or a small change in the price of electricity, are magnified when multiplied across Google\u2019s hundreds of thousands of servers.\nCloud Scale: Rows and rows of server infrastructure inside the Google data center in Mayes County, Oklahoma. (Photo: Google)\nCloud campuses are where companies like Google concentrate massive amounts of computing power in multiple data center facilities. These data center hubs enable companies to rapidly add server capacity and electric power, creating economies of scale as more workloads migrate into these massive server farms.\nGoogle has carefully selected the most affordable sites for building server farms, and wants to deploy as much capacity as possible at each of these locations.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a natural evolution of our campus strategy.\u201d said Kava. \u201cIf you\u2019re looking to preserve the amount of expansion on a campus, you look to densify and get the most out of every square foot, and that means multi-story.\u201d\nFrom Building Out to Building Up\nWhen it began constructing its own server farms back in 2006, Google built one story facilities. It looked beyond the traditional data center hubs in Silicon Valley and Northern Virginia, opting to build in rural locations with an abundant supply of cheap land and electricity. This allowed it to build bigger data center footprints to accommodate more servers, creating the modern hyperscale data center.\nGoogle first used a two-story layout in Finland in 2010, where it converted a large former newsprint factory in Hamina into a data center. The building had an unusually high ceiling, so Google installed a mezzanine floor so it could add more capacity. In 2013 it adapted a double-decker design for its \u201cgreenfield\u201d ground-up projects, an approach it has deployed at scale in The Dalles, Oregon and Council Bluffs, Iowa.\nWith the new four-story data centers, Google is going vertical in an even bigger way. With data halls on each of the four floors, Google can dramatically increase the number of servers it can deploy on each square foot of real estate. This will extend the life of each of its data center campuses, allowing the company to focus its cloud capacity on the most affordable locations.\nThe new four-story data center at the Google campus in Council Bluffs, Iowa towers above the one and two-story data centers seen at left. (Photo: Google)\nA Path Blazed by Carrier Hotels\nGoogle isn\u2019t the first company to operate a multi-story data center. From the earliest days of the Internet boom, servers and telecom equipment have been housed on the upper floors of skyscrapers in of major cities. These carrier hotels, like 60 Hudson Street and the Google-owned 111 8th Avenue in New York, provide services to the nexus of business customers in the central business district of these cities. But both power and real estate are expensive, and in limited supply.\nData center construction soon focused on the suburbs, and server farms grew horizontally, with single stories across larger footprints. As Internet growth has accelerated, Google hasn\u2019t been alone in shifting to a multi-story model, as service providers like Digital Realty and CoreSite also use two- and three-story designs for their greenfield builds.\nBut Google\u2019s shift to building up instead of out reflects the rapid growth of the company\u2019s cloud platform. Google\u2019s tallest company-designed building is in Singapore, where it operates a five-story data center. \u201cIn Singapore we needed to go multi-story because there isn\u2019t a lot of land available,\u201d said Kava.\nKeeping the Generators Happy\nThe shift to multi-story data centers required some minor adjustments. One issue is testing that the equipment yard, which houses electrical and mechanical equipment, isn\u2019t impacted by the proximity to a four-story building. Google uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to test the airflow in and around the equipment to ensure a proper working environment.\n\u201cOne of the biggest considerations is your CFD modeling for air intake and exhaust, especially for generators and cooling towers,\u201d said Kava. \u201cIf the wind is blocked by the building, it could affect the cooling towers. From a cooling perspective, you want to be careful to get that right.\u201d[clickToTweet tweet=\u201dGoogle\u2019s Joe Kava: The movement to cloud is really accelerating. This is a transformational time for IT.\u201d quote=\u201dGoogle\u2019s Joe Kava: The movement to cloud is really accelerating. This is a transformational time for IT.\u201d]\nGoogle continues to house its generators and cooling towers outside the building. The location of this equipment is a consideration in building multi-story facilities.\nSome carrier hotels in city centers don\u2019t have the luxury of land for an equipment yard, and house generators on upper floors and cooling towers on the roof of the building. This is not entirely without risk, as seen in an incident at 60 Hudson Street in February, in which a crane used for moving generators and air conditioning units collapsed into the street during a windstorm.\nWill Google build even taller data centers? Kava noted that the economics begin to shift when you have to reinforce floors to house heavy equipment, which at some point could offset the benefits of the additional capacity.\n\u201cFor us, it\u2019s a matter of what makes financial sense,\u201d said Kava. \u201cThere may be an inflection point on the construction costs on a dollar per kilowatt basis. With us it comes down to the economics.\u201d\nCreating A Giant Canvas\nA view of the huge mural by artist Jenny Odell on an exterior wall of the Google data center in Mayes County, Oklahoma. \u201cIt\u2019s a big wall and a big empty canvas,\u201d said Google\u2019s Joe Kava. (Photo: Google)\nThe multi-story design actually had a role in Google\u2019s newest initiative: The Data Center Mural Project, in which local artists beautify the Google server farms with giant murals along the side of the building. The project had its genesis in a conversation between Kava and Urs H\u00f6lzle, Google\u2019s senior VP for technical infrastructure.\n\u201cI was chatting with Urs and we were looking at photos of some of these new multi-story buildings,\u201d said Kava. \u201cThey\u2019re not very attractive, and we started brainstorming ideas around beautification.\u201d\nThe folks at Google Creative Lab suggesting treating the massive data center walls as a large canvas, and inviting artists with ties to the local community to create murals. The project stands in contrast to years of practice of making data centers unexceptional to look at \u2013 usually large concrete blocks with minimal signage.\nIt\u2019s also a reminder that the Google team is having fun, even as it races to build more data centers to power the Google Cloud Platform.\n\u201cKeeping up with the growth is fun if you love the data center industry, as our team certainly does,\u201d said Kava. \u201cThis is the best time for data center engineers and builders.\u201d\nTagged With: Carrier Hotels, Google",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Cloud / QTS Signs 24 Megawatt Hyperscale Deal in Northern Virginia\nA QTS Data Centers facility under construction in Ashburn, Virginia. The company just announced a 24-megawatt lease in nearby Manassas. (Photo: Rich Miller)\nThe huge lease, which ranks among the larger deals in industry history, provides validation of the company\u2019s strategy to retool its business to compete for hyperscale data center deals. It also illustrates the enormous demand for data center space in Northern Virginia, which is the world\u2019s largest data center market \u2013 and growing fast.\nQTS said its customer will lease the full 24 megawatt powered shell up front, and occupy five megawatts of turn-key data center capacity within the shell upon lease commencement. The customer is expected to sign future commitments, scaling to the full 24 megawatts of turn-key power capacity over approximately two years. The initial lease is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2019.\n\u201cQTS is pleased to expand our support of one of the world\u2019s leading software companies,\u201d said Chad Williams, Chairman and CEO of QTS. \u201cThis announcement reinforces our ability to execute on one of the company\u2019s core strategies and serve as a strategic partner to the world\u2019s largest and fastest growing technology companies. The Hyperscale vertical is a key component to the data center ecosystem, and a foundational part of QTS from the very outset.\u201d\nIn conjunction with the lease signing, QTS has closed on the acquisition of 61 acres of vacant land in Manassas, which will create a new campus that the company expects will support more than 85 megawatts of gross power. This powered shell approach and gradual turn-key development enables QTS to support this customer\u2019s needs within a disciplined capital plan.\nShift to Hyperscale\nIn recent months QTS has shifted its development focus, moving beyond retrofits of mega-scale industrial facilities to focus on ground-up cosntruction in the nation\u2019s largest markets, most notably a new greenfield data center in Ashburn, Virginia. The company recently announced a restructuring that sharpens its focus on the hyperscale opportunity, including a major step back from in-house cloud computing and managed services, focusing instead on providing colocation \u201con-ramps\u201d to major clouds.\nIn recent interviews, QTS executives say the company\u2019s commitment to hyperscale has opened doors, making QTS a serious player in huge deals that will shape its future. The recent growth of cloud computing has super-sized the requirements for hyperscale customers, which now range from 5 megawatts to as much as 35 megawatts of space in major markets.\nThe company\u2019s expansion into Northern Virginia last year kicked off a strategic shift in which QTS is buying land in the data center markets that are most attractive to companies deploying hyperscale cloud infrastructure. QTS acquired 53 acres on two parcels in Ashburn, Virginia as well as an 84-acre property in Phoenix and 92 acres in Hillsboro, Oregon, a data center hub just outside Portland.\nThe new project in Manassas reflects the next chapter in that expansion, with a development that was not on the QTS roadmap and effectively serves as a build-to-suit project. Manassas is also home to a huge new data center for CloudHQ, which featured a 35-megawatt lease to a single tenant.\nDevelopers in Northern Virginia leased a record 115 megawatts of data center space in 2017, topping the 113 megawatts (MWs) absorbed in 2017, according to a new report.",

        "title": "The Death of Twitter - Dataconomy",
        "raw_content": "The Death of Twitter\nTwitter started as a social version of text messaging. The limit on a text message is 160, which Twitter truncated to 140 to account for the sender\u2019s name. Early reviews considered the platform to be \u201caddictive and at the same time annoying\u201d; a less charitable review went as far as saying \u201cthat\u2019s the dumbest idea I\u2019ve ever heard of\u201d.\nThe birth of Twitter in 2006 made it the right platform at the right time. Every mobile phone effectively served as a broadcasting platform. The iPhone provided millions on-the-go Internet access, and allowed tweets be sent for free. These haiku-length packages of information could be made to fit nicely into narrow mobile phone data streams, providing a real-time flow of information.\nEverybody wants to be heard. Writing a full blog takes time. What\u2019s the solution? Tweet about it. Twitter democratized blogging by giving millions of people voices they never knew they had. No additional time or effort had to be spent on building an audience. Twitter became synonymous with microblogging, so much so that the latter term is hardly used anywhere outside of China.\nThe ease of use and speed of Twitter soon gave rise to the term \u2018Twitter Revolution\u2019. Social networking websites allowed public information to be spread widely and instantaneously, an invaluable resource for modern-day activists. Twitter\u2019s 140-character toppling of dictators in the Arab Spring made it a target for authoritative governments, most recently in Turkey.\nBy the time of Twitter\u2019s IPO in 2013, it had over 200 million monthly active users and 500 million tweets per day. Twitter raised close to $2 billion without ever having turned a single dollar of profit. Twitter\u2019s trump card was mobile user engagement, and with this the company crafted native ads. These ads blended seamlessly into the user\u2019s feed, while mining through user data allowed better targeting and more importantly, better monetization.\nGoogle has gone on a robotics and artificial intelligence shopping spree, Facebook developed software that recognizes faces better than humans. Twitter, however, has suffered declining growth year-on-year since 2011, and these developments may soon end the death of Twitter:\n1. Less active users\nTwitter is a victim of its own success. The reach that the platform has have in turn attracted more spam, more hate speech, and more unverified content. It\u2019s only a matter of time before the more prominent Tweeters leave.\nSome already have. Ezra Klein dishearteningly wrote how Twitter\u2019s signal-to-noise ratio was too low: up to 90% of a typical Twitter feed is a waste of time. He recommends consumption in moderation. His feed, however, suggests he\u2019s largely disengaged from the service.\nIt appears Twitter is now mainly being used for self-promotion. It is no longer a venue where ideas are thrown about, where replies would be unpredictable, where to hang out just because it\u2019s fun. There is more professional media, more scheduled broadcasts, more groupthink.\nThere are tweets that are banal, and there are tweets that are outright lies. Fake information and pictures proliferate the platform, especially after a natural disaster. For example, Hurricane Sandy depicted Manhattan as a modern-day Atlantis, and the Statue of Liberty being felled by a tsunami.\nThere are startups that try to address this problem. Tweetcred appends a \u2018credibility ranking\u2019 by reviewing inputs such as tweet length, if a URL was included, and the number of followers of the tweet source. This may help journalists in concentrating on credible sources, or traders in assessing market impact of a news event.\nIrrespective, Twitter at heart is a social platform. Fake pictures went viral because they were the most incredible, not the most credible. The fact that retweeting involves tapping a single button simply adds fuel to the flame.\nHow Twitter addresses these dualities, treading the fine line in serving both the serious user and the casual one, will make or break the platform. The company needs to ensure how a feature that has a positive impact for one group doesn\u2019t translate into something negative for the other. That appears to be the case right now, and given how quickly things move in the information age, it may already be too late.\nImage credit: Shawn Campbell\nTags:TwitterWeekly Newsletter\nCFAR-m: Simplifying The Complexity of Big Data\nGoogle Welcomes Stackdriver to Cloud Platform\nThe Applications of Machine Learning Through Unstructured Text Data\nTwitter today, gone tomorrow",

        "raw_content": "Equinix Expands Data Center Leadership Position with Close of Telecity Acquisition\nREDWOOD CITY, Calif. and LONDON, Jan. 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), the global interconnection and data center company, today announced that it has completed the acquisition of TelecityGroup plc in a transaction valued at approximately $3.8 billion (\u00a32.6 billion). The addition of TelecityGroup's 40+ data centers more than doubles Equinix's capacity in Europe, fortifying its position as the largest retail colocation provider in the region. The acquisition expands the company's interconnection platform in key European markets while also adding critical network and cloud density to better serve enterprise customers who see interconnection as a core IT design principle and are increasingly moving to highly interconnected, global data centers for accelerated business performance and innovation.\nIn order to meet changing business needs, global enterprises continue to outsource IT, but increasingly require connectivity to service providers and business partners in multiple markets \u2013 a key benefit of Equinix's global interconnection platform. Today, 54 percent of Equinix's revenue comes from customers deployed globally across all three of its regions (Americas, APAC and EMEA), and over 83 percent of revenue is from customers deployed across multiple metros, a reflection of the company's differentiated scale and global reach. With new data centers and increased interconnection in Europe, Equinix builds on its global market leadership, and creates new opportunities to grow business ecosystems around the world.\nThe acquisition of Telecity enhances Equinix's existing data center portfolio by adding seven new markets in Europe and provides customers even more ways to connect with other businesses around the world on Platform Equinix\u2122. Equinix will add data center facilities in Bulgaria, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Sweden and Turkey.\nThrough the acquisition, Telecity brings more than 1,000 net new customers to Equinix, including more than 200 network and mobility companies and more than 300 cloud and IT services companies. This further strengthens the business ecosystems found inside of Equinix International Business Exchange IBX\u00ae data centers and provides customers with the broadest choice of service providers for IT and multi-cloud deployments to accelerate business performance.\nEquinix has made three acquisitions in the last twelve months including professional services company Nimbo in the U.S. in January 2015 and Bit-isle in Japan in November 2015. The Telecity and Bit-isle acquisitions significantly expand Equinix's global platform (after planned divestitures) from 105 data centers in 33 metros to 145 in 40 metros.\nOriginally announced in May as a recommended cash and share offer, the transaction was approved earlier this week by Telecity shareholders and the scheme of arrangement used to implement the acquisition was approved by the applicable court in the United Kingdom, both steps required for closing the transaction.\nThe transaction was comprised of a cash payment of approximately $1.7 billion and the issuance of approximately 6.8 million shares of Equinix common stock valued at approximately $2.1 billion based on the closing price of Equinix common stock as of January 14, 2016. This amount excludes any value attributed to the Telecity employee equity awards assumed, which will be finalized at a later date.\nTelecity's Chairman, John Hughes, will be joining the Board of Directors of Equinix, Inc., and Equinix's EMEA President, Eric Schwartz, will serve as the head of the combined regional business in EMEA.\nEquinix will further discuss the financial results of the Telecity and Bit-isle acquisitions during its regularly planned Q4 earnings call in February 2016.\n\"Today is a very important day for Equinix as we close the acquisition of Telecity, which is a significant milestone in our 17-year history. By increasing the scale of the Equinix interconnection platform in key markets throughout Europe, we are able to better serve global enterprises while creating meaningful shareholder value.\"\nJohn Hughes, outgoing executive chairman, TelecityGroup, and board member, Equinix:\n\"The combination of Equinix and Telecity gives businesses more choice for interconnection, which is increasingly important in this highly digital age, when customers rely on connectivity to drive competitive advantage. I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to all the committed, talented employees at Telecity who together built Europe's premium data center business and remain committed to the smooth integration of our two companies. It is with great pleasure that I will continue to work with the combined business as a member of Equinix's Board of Directors.\"\nEquinix Extends Global Data Center Leadership as Telecity Deal Goes Final [blog]\nEquinix makes Recommended Offer for TelecityGroup [press release]\nRecommended Cash and Share Offer for Telecity Group PLC by Equinix, Inc.

That's because his company, Pilot Flying J, just agreed to pay $92 million to the U.S. government in exchange for an assurance from the feds that he and his company will not be prosecuted.\nFBI: Browns Owner Jimmy Haslam&apos;s Company Engaged In A Lot Of Fraud\nPilot Flying J, the truck-stop empire of which Browns owner Jimmy Haslam is the most prominent\u2026\nHaslam's company has already paid $56 million in settlement money to other companies that were sued once the fraud\u2014which consisted of Pilot Flying J offering outrageous fuel rebates that it just never paid\u2014became public. And so Haslam, who maintains that he knew nothing about the scam despite being the CEO and having been at a meeting where the scam was discussed, has purchased himself a very expensive get-out-of-jail-free card.\nTechnically, Haslam isn't completely out of the woods just yet. This latest settlement protects him from federal prosecution, but he is still vulnerable to prosecution from any of his company's defrauded customers who still wants to bring a case. But Haslam will likely be able to settle any such case, and in all likelihood we are once again going to see him yukking it up like a shitbag in his owner's box, as only a man who has enough money to beat a federal charge can.\n[Justice.gov]",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 To Be A Cubs Fan\nThe Greatest Invention? \u2192\nLaser Theory Continued\u2026.\nOn September 9, 2012 I postulated that everyone\u2019s life is a bright laser beam saying: \u201cConsider the earth a vast array of space where literally billions of laser beams are present, yours being just one of these. Sometimes laser beams run closely parallel to each other for an entire lifetime, such as the beams of a Mother and her son, or the beams of a couple who are married for a long time. In the case of estrangement or divorce, the beams run away from each other, sometimes to run parallel at a later time. However, most of the time beams intersect for a brief period, perhaps a day, perhaps an hour, or maybe for just a few seconds, such as when glances are exchanged on a crowded street. The intersection of laser beams is the essence of life. Let me characterize just a few types of intersections.\u201d\nThis week I had three more laser beam experiences. On Monday evening a former economics student of mine, Andrew McManimon, came by our place in Wrigleyville. We trotted over to Wrigley Field to watch a ball game. Andrew\u2019s laser beam ZAPS mine from time to time, and it is always pleasurable when we connect. I look forward to more and more contact with Andrew as the years go by.\nOn the way back from Chicago last Wednesday afternoon there was a construction delay on I-90 west of Wisconsin Dells. Traffic was crawling at about 5 miles per hour, stopping occasionally. Along side of me pulled a semi truck from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. It was a pretty, yellow truck and the driver looked pleasant and clean-cut. Because we were both stopped for a few minutes I seized the opportunity to greet him. I don\u2019t know why, but the words \u201cGod bless you, my Canadian brother!\u201d bolted past my lips. He smiled and thanked me for the friendly response. We talked a bit. I told him that my great uncle had been a wheat farmer from Gladstone, Manitoba. He responded by saying that he lived in southern Manitoba. We talked briefly about the Stanley cup playoffs and he was off. Once again\u2026ZAP\u2026laser intersection for about two minutes!\nThis (Sunday) afternoon I was working on restoring a wooden window that had been painted shut over 100 years ago. It took some time to pull this off, since the window had been painted shut from both the inside and outside of the house. Anyway, while I\u2019m working on the window out in the garage, a car pulled up with a man and woman inside. The woman got out and introduced herself as \u201cRuth.\u201d Then she handed me a business card, asking me if I knew where I could find the person named on the card. The name was Mark VanFleet, the same name as an old college buddy of mine. I looked a little amazed at the name similarity and was even more astounded to find my old college buddy standing next to me. It has been forty years since I\u2019ve seen Mark! Ruth is Mark\u2019s wife and her charade worked perfectly! Again, laser beams of two lives came together after 40 years of separation and for the time it took to have lunch and chat, we were one again. ZAP!\nDoggone it\u2026I love those laser ZAPS!",

        "raw_content": "Blog Archive: January 2018\nMake a Super Bowl Game Plan for the Road\nWell, it's almost here: the Super Bowl in Minneapolis. And although you'd expect a lot of partying to happen on the weekend of the big game, the estimated 1 million people converging on the Twin Cities could make being a driver, passenger, or pedestrian on the roads a little dicey -- even if everyone were sober. So to stay safe while you\u2019re out having fun Super Bowl weekend and in the days prior with all the events, make sure you have a game plan. The Office of Traffic Safety advises you to plan ahead if you or your friends are planning to drink...\nHow are we preparing to celebrate the Super Bowl safely? Let us count the ways.\nIt\u2019s no secret that the Super Bowl is a huge production for any city hosting it. But what about the state? The Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) is working to support our partners to make sure this year\u2019s Super Bowl will be as safe \u2013 and therefore fun \u2013 as it can possibly be. And with an estimated one million people converging on the Twin Cities to join the fun, a little safety can go a long way. Here are a few more tips from our various divisions that can help you make the weekend of the big game as fun and safe as possible...\nFire investigations: We\u2019re not in Hollywood anymore\nAh, television. Wouldn\u2019t it be great if our lives were like that? We\u2019d all be richer and better looking, and, best of all, our problems could be solved in tidy 23- or 47-minute increments. But this is the real world, and that means that problems \u2013 like what caused a devastating fire, for example \u2013 are a lot more complex and time-consuming to solve. But that doesn\u2019t stop the fire investigators from our State Fire Marshal Division from trying. After all, on average, a fire is reported every 37 minutes in Minnesota...\nSuper Bowl weekend can be both fun and safe\nYou may already have heard, but the state of Minnesota passed a law last year (check out Section 18) saying that individual cities can allow local bars to stay open until 4 a.m. over Super Bowl weekend, Feb. 2-5. That\u2019s good news for revelers who want to spend time with their friends and soak up the atmosphere of this historic event. But just like any occasion involving alcohol, there are important decisions to be made...\nPractice makes safety: Making and practicing a home fire escape plan\nWhether it was from a piano teacher, a soccer coach, or some other adult in your life, you likely heard this phrase ad nauseam growing up: \u201cPractice makes perfect!\u201d Especially when it\u2019s for an event\u2014like a performance or a big game \u2013 where the stakes are high and you\u2019re full of adrenaline, you need to rely on those repeated actions to get you through. What stakes could be higher than getting safely out of your burning home with your family? When that smoke alarm goes off, you\u2019ll likely be in bed...\nStandard driver\u2019s licenses\u2026enhanced driver\u2019s licenses\u2026REAL ID? It\u2019s enough to make a person\u2019s head spin. How are you supposed to know which one you should have and when and where you can get it? Worry no more. We\u2019ve put together a handy guide that should make things a lot clearer. The first thing you should know is that REAL IDs are not available in Minnesota yet. The Minnesota legislature passed a law that requires REAL IDs to be available in Minnesota by Oct. 2018, and Driver and Vehicle Services is working toward that deadline now...\nEverything you never knew about vehicle equipment laws\nEver look at your car and wonder what is and isn\u2019t legal in terms of the equipment? What does the law say about your headlights and brake lights? And perhaps more importantly, can you keep the hula dancer on the dashboard and the fuzzy dice dangling from the rearview mirror? Fortunately, the State Patrol is here to help us be sure we\u2019re driving a law-abiding vehicle. Some of the regulations may be obvious (you already knew you\u2019re required to have two headlights, right?), but some aren\u2019t so much. For example, those headlights are limited to 300-watt candlepower...\nMore: December Blog Posts\u200b",

We have a wealth of knowledge on substance detox and treatment facilities and can help you find the right program for you.\nOur drug detox specialists can find a drug detox center for you or a loved-one to help break free from drugs, whether their addiction is to heroin, crack cocaine, prescription pain-relieving drugs, alcohol, marijuana or any combination of co-occurring problems.\nOne of the primary decisions, when you or your loved one chooses between drug detox facilities in New Jersey, is deciding between inpatient and outpatient drug detox. Inpatient drug rehab programs offer the most intensive level of addiction treatment care with round-the-clock physical and emotional support from a professional medical staff in a safe and healthy residential facility.

Wherever you decide to get drug detox, the first step is making a choice!\nNew Jersey Treatment Facts\nPast Year Treatment for Illicit Drug Use Among Individuals Aged 12 or Older with Illicit Drug Dependence or Abuse in New Jersey (Annual Average, 2010\u20132014)\nApproximately 6.6% of New Jerseyans aged 12 or older received treatment for alcohol abuse or dependence, similar to the national average of 7.3%.\nApproximately 23.7% of New Jerseyans aged 12 or older received treatment for illicit drug use or dependence, far higher than the national average of 14.1%.\nApproximately 38% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 17 received mental health treatment for a major depressive episode, similar to the national average of 38.6%.\nApproximately 39.9% of New Jerseyans aged 18 or older received mental health treatment or counseling for any mental illness, similar to the national average of 42.7%.\nNew Jersey Health Statistics\nThe New Jersey Department of Health, as well as the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) of the New Jersey Department of Human Services (DHS), have been working to develop comprehensive services to meet the complex needs of every New Jerseyan family or individual with co-occurring substance abuse problems and mental health problems.\nThe primary substance abuse problem in New Jersey over the past few years involves heroin and alcohol followed by marijuana and other opiates, which have resulted in an increase in violence, crime, vandalism as well as health and domestic issues.\nThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 1,253 deaths in New Jersey from overdose alone in 2014 and then 1,454 overdose deaths in 2015. A majority of overdoses in New Jersey involve alcohol followed by the non-medical use of prescription drugs and heroin. In a statewide substance abuse overview, the New Jersey DMHAS of the New Jersey DHS reported that approximately 40% of New Jerseyans reported alcohol as their drug of choice, 26% preferred alcohol and 15% preferred marijuana followed by other opiates, cocaine and other drugs.\nHeavy alcohol use among adults has remained consistent while underage binge drinking has been declining since 2010. SAMHSA has reported that 62.1% of New Jersey youth aged 12 to 17 perceive no great risk from binge drinking once or twice a week, 33.4% of New Jersey youth aged 12 to 17 perceive no great risk from smoking one or more packs of cigarettes a day and 77.1% of New Jersey youth aged 12 to 17 perceive no great risk from smoking marijuana once a month.\nPast Year Illicit Drug Dependence or Abuse Among Individuals Aged 12 or Older in New Jersey and the United States (2010\u20132011 to 2013\u20132014)\nApproximately 7.9% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 17 reported past month use of illicit drug use, lower than the national average of 9.1%.\nApproximately 4.8% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 17 reported past month use of cigarettes, similar to the national average of 5.2%.\nApproximately 15.4% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 20 reported past month binge drinking, slightly higher than the national average of 14%.\nApproximately 3.8% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 17 reported past year nonmedical use of prescription pain relievers, similar to the national average of 4.7%.\nApproximately 6.5% of New Jerseyans aged 12 or older reported abuse or dependence on alcohol, identical to the national average.\nApproximately 2.4% of New Jerseyans aged 12 or older reported past year abuse or dependence on illicit drugs, similar to the national average of 2.6%.\nApproximately 5.7% of New Jerseyans aged 21 or older reported past month heavy alcohol use, lower than the national average of 6.7%.\nApproximately 3.6% of New Jerseyans aged 18 or older experienced past year thoughts of suicide, similar to the national average of 3.9%.\nApproximately 3.6% of New Jerseyans aged 18 or older experienced a past year serious mental illness (SMI), similar to the national average of 4.2%.\nApproximately 10.2% of New Jerseyans aged 12 to 17 experienced at least one major depressive episode (MDE), similar to the national average of 11%.\nThe most used drugs in New Jersey are:\nMarijuana was approved in New Jersey in 2010 for medical use to help treat a number of chronic or terminal diseases and debilitating medical conditions and remains illegal for recreational use. One noticeable change over the past decade is the increasing potency of the psychoactive component in marijuana, Tetrahydrocannabinol or THC. Increased research, production and availability of medical and recreational marijuana products has led to the development of marijuana concentrates such as hash oil, marijuana wax, and marijuana-infused edibles. The concentration of THC in marijuana and marijuana products has increased from .74 percent in 1975, 3.75 percent in 1995, 11.8 percent in 2014 all the way to 50 to 90 percent concentration in the last few years. Marijuana is one of the most preferred drugs for New Jerseyans and is the number one most widely used drug in the United States.\nThe Need for Drug Detox in New Jersey\nIt is vital to make quality care and services available to any and all New Jerseyans who need treatment for a chronic substance dependence and possibly co-occurring problems. Unfortunately, every year, thousands of New Jerseyans continue to live with an active addiction and do not seek treatment.\nIn recent years, between 76 and 94% of New Jerseyans aged 12 or older did not receive treatment for illicit drug or alcohol use, abuse or dependence. The process of overcoming drug or alcohol addiction is a lengthy and intensive process that requires endurance and patience from the addict as well as professional medical support. Between 60 and 62% of individuals from New Jersey did not receive treatment for a major depressive episode or for any mental illness.\nSuccessful recovery begins with professional, medically assisted detox. Those who attempt an at-home detox face the risk of medical complications from withdrawals that can potentially be fatal, as well as face the risk of relapse and possible subsequent overdose. Withdrawal symptoms can include irritability, depression, insomnia, flu-like symptoms, nausea, vomiting, irregular heart rate, seizures, hallucinations, depressed breathing and cravings. Without professional treatment care, people suffering from a substance use disorder are overwhelmingly unlikely to successfully recover on their own.\nDrug Detox Options in New Jersey\nNew Jersey has 127 miles of coastline on the Atlantic Ocean with the 4th smallest land area and the 11th largest population in the United States. New Jersey has a thriving agriculture industry, some of the best schools in the country and is ranked as the best state to raise a family, making it an excellent place to detox, recover and live.\nDrug detox and treatment centers vary depending on the type and severity of addiction as well as the needs of the patient and include both long-term and short-term inpatient and outpatient programs. Programs can treat general demographics and addictions while others cater to specific drug addictions, co-occurring mental or physical issues as well as to different demographics of New Jerseyans such as seniors, teenagers, men, women, pregnant women, executives, those with different sexual orientations, and those with different religious beliefs.",

        "raw_content": "What to Expect in Detox\nKatherine Beigel Drug Detox\talcohol detox, drug detox, inpatient detox, medication detox\nThe road to recovery is a long process that requires professional care as well as effort and inner strength of the patient, this can seem as daunting and uncomfortable as it is new and unfamiliar for many addicts. Addicts strive to maintain the familiarity, comfort and \u2018normalcy\u2019 of their addiction in order to avoid dealing with the root of their problems as well as to avoid the emotional and physical discomfort of withdrawals, regardless of the negative impact it has on their body, mind and those around them. In truth however, the recovery process can be customized to provide each individual with the exact care they need to deal with underlying and co-occurring problems and be as healthy, comfortable and painless as possible. Here\u2019s a brief overview of what to expect in drug detox.\nAfter making the decision to get professional help, the first step upon entering a treatment program is an intake assessment and a full medical examination to determine the addict\u2019s current and history of medical and mental health, the timeline, extent and details of substance usage, as well as to determine whether or not the patient is clean and sober at the time of entering rehabilitation. An intake assessment involves gathering all of the patient\u2019s basic and personal information and requires the patient to be thorough and completely honest so that the program can be tailored to fit the exact needs of you and your addiction. Omitting or fabricating information might have little to no effect, but it can also result in inadequate treatment and even complications that can be life threatening.\nRemember to ask as many questions as possible during this time, understanding the logistics, methods, the details of what to expect day to day as well as what is expected of you can make transitioning into the program and schedule easier. Once the information is collected it is completely confidential, no information is shared with other clients, family, employers or officials. The only times information legally needs to be shared is if there is reason to believe that the patient may cause harm to themselves or others as well as if the patient is a minor.\nThe next step is to remove all harmful substances from the addict\u2019s system in a medically assisted detoxification process where medications such as receptor antagonists, relaxants and other treatments are used to stabilize the patient by mitigating withdrawal symptoms and curbing cravings. Medications that are commonly used in drug and alcohol detox include acamprosate, disulfiram, naltrexone, benzodiazepines such as Valium and lorazepam, anticonvulsants such as Depakote or Tegretol, anti-nausea medications such as ondansetron and finally antidepressants.\nWithdrawal symptoms including mood disturbances such as depression and anxiety, sleep disturbances such as insomnia and physical issues such as vomiting, aches and tremors can last hours, weeks and months depending on the individual\u2019s physiology, tolerance, type or combination of substances and the duration of the addiction. Post-acute withdrawal symptoms can last from six to 12 months after the last drug dose, as is especially prevalent for alcoholics and meth users.\nThe National Institute on Drug Abuse has reported that between 40 and 60 percent of people relapse after or during professional treatment compared to the majority of people who relapse from attempting to detox, recover and maintain sobriety at home. Addicts, friends and family are unqualified, inexperienced and often unprepared to address the physical dependence nor the psychological aspects of drug addiction. Round-the-clock professional medical supervision as well as being in an environment free of stressors, temptations and bad influences is important for short-term and long-term success.\nThough it may feel like the world is ending, your new life is just beginning. It is important to remember that completing detoxification and attaining sobriety are just the first milestones in the journey towards recovery, the next goal is maintaining sobriety and dealing with the underlying physical and mental health issues that originally prompted or have been exacerbated by substance abuse.\nDealing with Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome during rehab\tEnabling an Addict",

Underage drinking is a rising health concern in almost every state in the nation, as drinking at a young age is associated with various health and safety risks. The harm of underage drinking can affect any teen or adolescent, regardless of age or the level of drinking. Any young person can experience the consequences of underage drinking such as destructive behaviors, injuries, violence, or even death. This growing problem is not only a concern for families, but also a nationwide issue.\nUnderage Drinking Statistics:\nAmerican teens are reported to start drinking regularly at the age of 15.\nMore than 5,000 deaths of individuals ages 21 and below are connected with underage drinking each year.\nVarious research has shown that 44% of college students have admitted to binge drinking.\nAnnually, nearly 30,000 college students need an intensive alcohol treatment after suffering an alcohol overdose.\nAt the age of 15, more than 50% of young people had already had at least 1 alcoholic drink.\nAt the age of 18, more that 70% had drank at least 1 alcoholic beverage.\nAn estimated 10 million individuals ages 12 to 20 have admitted to binge drinking in the past month.\nConsequences of Underage Drinking:\nPublic issues like violent behavior which can lead to a fight, lack of involvement in community activities, and school issues such as poor participation which leads to failing grades.\nHealth problems such as hangovers, alcohol poisoning, and long-term damage to brain and organs.\nIncreased likelihood to be involved in unprotected sexual activity.\nDrinking alcohol during prior to or during puberty can upset the critical hormonal balance necessary for typical development of organs, muscles, and bones and can also adversely affect the development of the reproductive system.\nCan cause memory problems.\nA person who starts drinking alcohol as a teenager is four times more likely to develop alcoholism than those who choose to wait until adulthood before consuming alcohol.\nUnderage drinking causes significant changes in the brain, including affecting the neurons which help to develop the formations of new neural networks.\nDue to the availability of alcohol in the country, it is a serious problem which shouldn\u2019t be taken for granted. Unfortunately, many individuals consider drinking alcohol as a normal part of growing up. Yet, drinking at a very young age is not only dangerous for the user, but also for the whole community because of the increasing number of alcohol-related vehicle accidents, suicides, and other damages. Due to the serious problems which are associated with underage drinking, such as alcoholism, poor performance at school, and unprotected sexual activity, programs which help to prevent alcohol use among young people is exceedingly important. As is recognizing the signs and symptoms of alcohol abuse among teens and adolescents because it can help to stop the problem before it turns into an addiction.

        "raw_content": "\u2018Greetings From Mars\u2019\nWhat would be the first thing you\u2019d do after stepping foot onto Mars?\nYou\u2019d probably take a selfie.\nThat\u2019s not a jab at your character or insinuation of vanity. It\u2019s just what we do these days, you know? Over the past decade or so, the selfie has evolved from teen trend to worldwide phenomenon.\nWith luxury space travel becoming a very real possibility, French photographer Julien Mauve illustrates what we would look like as tourists on a new planet in a series called Greetings From Mars. Mauve\u2019s images are a stark yet playful juxtaposition of barren land and social self-absorption. Mauve explained the setting to the Huffington Post:\n\u201cIt\u2019s a couple experiencing Mars as tourists for the first time and sharing their experience through photographs. They include themselves in front of those landscapes and affirm their presence but the funny thing is that we don\u2019t see their faces. It could be anyone in those suits and, in fact, it goes against the original purpose of taking a selfie or souvenir pictures. It was also a way to illustrate this endless pursuit of self-definition we seek with pictures.\u201d\nMany of the shots feature a single, lonely, spacesuit-clad traveler taking in the emptiness of the surrounding land. Others show the couple posing together, presumably for a timed shot, or perhaps maybe with the courtesy of a fellow tourist snapping the shot for them. Some are selfies and poses, and some are plain landscape shots. Overall, Mauve does a fantastic job of making the series feel like an actual travel photo collection.\nMauve told Huff Post that he has always been fascinated with Mars and is anxious about the future of space exploration.\n\u201cWe hear a lot about NASA, Elon Musk and SpaceX these days,\u201d he wrote. \u201cMars One also, the company that offers people a one way ticket to establish the first human colony on Mars (and intend to create a TV show out of it). Space exploration and colonization is the greatest adventure of the century and the fact that we may witness it in our life-time makes it even more exciting.\u201d\nHe thinks we may even see the once outlandish concept come to fruition within the next 100 years. Whether that\u2019s true remains to be seen, but in the meantime, Greetings From Mars is a fun, lighthearted poke at our social media-obsessed planet.\n\u201cSome years ago, taking pictures of landscapes was enough. And we were not able to share them before we came back home,\u201d Mauve writes on his website. \u201cToday we have added ourselves on the pictures. Our faces are everywhere. We share everything instantly; we feel the need to do it. The connection is permanent and the experience becomes different. With Internet available everywhere, there is no \u201cbeing-far-away\u201d anymore. So we might ask ourselves, do we travel to discover new places, change of scene, new cultures, or do we travel to look for pictures of ourselves and to prove that we exist?\u201d\nThat\u2019s a heck of a question.",

        "raw_content": "Journalist Daniel Schorr dies at 93\nDaniel Schorr, senior news analyst for National Public Radio, died Friday. He was 93.\nWASHINGTON \u0096 Veteran reporter and commentator Daniel Schorr, whose hard-hitting reporting for CBS got him on President Richard Nixon\u0092s notorious \u0093enemies list\u0094 in the 1970s, has died. He was 93.\nSchorr died Friday at Washington\u0092s Georgetown University Hospital after a brief illness, said his son, Jonathan Schorr.\nDaniel Schorr\u0092s career of more than six decades spanned the spectrum of journalism \u0096 beginning in print, then moving to television where he spent 23 years with CBS News and ending with National Public Radio, where he worked until he died. He also wrote several books, including his memoir, Staying Tuned: A Life in Journalism.\nThe famed political reporter nearly became a music reviewer instead. Beyond the dogged reporting, though, Jonathan Schorr, 42, said his father was warm, caring and someone who taught by example.\n\u0093We\u0092re incredibly sad, but at the same time, my dad had 93 amazing years,\u0094 he said. \u0093I think all he could have wished for is a terrific, long life, where he accomplished amazing things and died peacefully in the arms of his entire family.\u0094\nSchorr reported from Moscow; Havana; Bonn, Germany; and many other cities as a foreign correspondent. While at CBS, he brought Americans the first-ever exclusive television interview with a Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, in 1957.\nDuring the Nixon years, Schorr not only covered the news as CBS\u0092 chief Watergate correspondent, but he also became part of the story. Hoping to beat the competition, he rushed to the air with Nixon\u0092s famous \u0093enemies list\u0094 and began reading the list of 20 to viewers before previewing it. As he got to No. 17, he discovered his name.\nRecently, well into his 90s, he was still giving commentaries on NPR. He was last heard on the air waves July 10, on NPR\u0092s \u0093Weekend Edition\u0094 with Scott Simon in a discussion of the U.S.-Russia spy swap, the Justice Department\u0092s lawsuit against Arizona and other news of the week.\nSimon called working with Schorr \u0093one of the great blessings of my life.\u0094\n\u0093He had no boss but the First Amendment,\u0094 Simon said. \u0093He felt his duty was to the news.\u0094\nSchorr spoke in a thick New York accent he never lost, a voice that contrasted sharply with the drama-school quality of many newscasters of the 1950s and \u009260s. It made his delivery all the more compelling.",

        "raw_content": "Ear HealthServicesSurfer\u2019s ear\nWhat causes surfer\u2019s ear?\nRepeated exposure of your ear canal to cold water and wind can cause \u201csurfer\u2019s ear\u201d. It\u2019s the cooling of the ear canal that stimulates bone growth. Bone growth can start to block your ear canal, changing the way sound travels to the ear drum, and increases the risk of infection due to water getting trapped behind the bony lumps.\nDoctors and nurses call surfers ear, \u201cexostosis of the external auditory canal\u201d. Operating on exostoses is among the most challenging surgeries that an Ear Nose and Throat Surgeon can perform. For the patient it can be challenging too, as the mere thought of someone drilling or chiselling out excess bone growing in your ear canal is pretty terrifying!\nSome surfers have large exostoses on one side, and small or none on the other. Presumably this is because of the prevailing wind direction at their local beaches. Some people are also more inclined to develop exostoses and it\u2019s thought this could be due to genetic reasons.\nSurfer\u2019s ear is not the same as swimmer\u2019s ear. Exostoses are not caused by infection. However, it carries the risk of ear infection of the outer ear canal, or otitis externa. You may have surfers ear, and because of the water trapped inside your ear is causing infection, you will likely initially present with symptoms of swimmer\u2019s ear.\nIt should also be noted surfing is not the only activity that can cause exostosis. Swimming, diving, skiing and even driving a convertible can cause bone growths in the ear.\nSurfer\u2019s ear symptoms\nEarly symptoms of surfer\u2019s ear include water becoming trapped in the ear more frequently and it also becomes harder to get the water out. If the water remains trapped for long enough, this increases the risk of ear infections. If your ear canal narrows further with continued growth of the exostoses, infections can take longer to settle, and become more frequent.\nEven grater narrowing of the ear canal due to growth of the exostoses will eventually result in hearing loss. Complete closure of an\nAs they say prevention is better than cure, particularly when the cure can mean a chisel in your ear canal. The best prevention is to protect your ears from cold water and wind when you can. Ear plugs, ear muffs, or a hat that helps shield your ears may help. Specialised swimmers or surfers ear plugs that may be custom fit, work well for those who frequent, cold, wet and windy environments.",

        "raw_content": "Davis Adams 3 Oct 2018 05:32pm\nDavid Adams plots the forces driving the evolution of the office, and anticipates what corporate workplaces will look like in the future\nCaption: Photography: Unilever HQ\nMost people who have worked in an office environment have opinions on what makes a workplace good or bad. One common factor in the latter is a space designed with the clear objective of saving money at all costs. The good news for office workers of the future is that the quality of many workplaces seems likely to improve, because a good working environment now plays such an important role in attracting talented people to an organisation.\nDespina Katsikakis, head of occupier business performance at real estate services company Cushman & Wakefield, is an expert on the relationship between workplaces and business performance \u2013 she has advised companies including Google, Unilever, BP and Microsoft.\nShe believes the most important change is seeing workplaces as a means of improving employee engagement rather than as a cost centre: \u201cOrganisations are recognising they need to treat employees as customers, and to treat buildings as destinations they want employees to be inspired by.\u201d\nThe office of the future, the culture of these workplaces, and employee benefit packages will all need to cater for the tastes and requirements of a broader range of individuals than in the past. One important change is that the working week is becoming more fluid. A growing number of employees want or need to work more flexibly for multiple reasons, from making space for extra-curricular activities to meeting childcare and other caring responsibilities.\nHotdesking is a logical response to increased flexibility, but it can breed alienation if not managed well. Kathryn Bishop, senior writer at management consultancy The Future Laboratory, and co-author of a report on the workplace of the future commissioned by architecture firm Morey Smith, believes many employees feel more valued by their employer when they have their own space in the office. Many organisations, including large corporates like the Big Four, are trying to use forms of hotdesking that somehow help to build a sense of belonging for employees, while reducing the huge costs of flagship buildings. Deloitte is attempting to achieve this in its new London building at 1 New Street Square (see case study).\nAnother great cost saving innovation \u2013 or terrible curse upon office workers everywhere, depending on your point of view \u2013 is the open-plan layout. One of the arguments made in favour of them over the years is that they encourage better collaboration and communication, but recent research suggests this may not be true.\nA 2018 study by two Harvard academics, Ethan Bernstein and Stephen Turban, observed employees in two US offices who were moved into open-plan environments. Analysis of data drawn from wearable electronic devices that measured face-to-face interaction, alongside email and instant messaging server data, revealed that in both offices the volume of face-to-face interactions fell as a result \u2013 by around 70%.\nBernstein, associate professor of business administration at Harvard Business School, says he was not surprised to see the reduction, but was amazed by its scale. \u201cWe know, from other studies, that if you put people in open plan offices, behavioural norms develop in which everyone feels they have to be quiet and get on with the job,\u201d says Bernstein. \u201cIt\u2019s also the case that some people feel that if everyone can see us we want to look as if we are busy, so we may become less welcoming.\u201d\nThe study also showed there was very little overlap between the networks of people interacting face-to-face in these offices and the networks of online interactions created by workers as they sat at their desks. \u201cThat means that as an organisation shifts to online interaction it also changes who people interact with,\u201d says Bernstein. \u201cThat could be a positive: many people work in global enterprises today, and if I\u2019m your manager maybe I don\u2019t want you to reach out to the person sitting next to you with a problem if there\u2019s someone somewhere else in the world who it might be better for you to interact with instead.\n\u201cBut what this report highlights is the unintended consequences of change. We may design space, but those who use it have agency to decide how they use it.\u201d\nOne solution, for businesses that can afford to do so, is to use a mix of different workspaces. Caroline Burns, founder and managing director at Singapore-based consultancy Workplace Revolution, suggests this might include areas where there could be use of hotdesking, some open areas kept quiet to allow focused work; and other open areas that allow more noise and encourage more interaction.\nIn future we may well see further variations on this sort of theme, such as offices based on the Eudaimonia Machine, a concept first imagined by American architect and academic David Dewane: a workplace with a progression of five different, connected spaces, starting with informal public space, but leading through a series of increasingly more formal office environments to very quiet, private areas designed for maximum concentration.\nMany employers would never be able to create such a workplace, but some of the other features anticipated for the state of the art office of the future could be used by almost every employer. One of them is planting. Multiple research studies demonstrate the positive effects that greenery in the office can have on productivity and morale, by literally and figuratively changing the atmosphere. Use of planting may be spectacular in large, showpiece buildings such as corporate headquarters, but the same benefits can be achieved in much smaller offices.\nOther changes already visible in large office buildings that could be mimicked by smaller organisations include better lighting and heating/cooling systems, controlled in more sophisticated, intelligent ways and capable of automated adjustment as needed, or in accordance with employee preference.\nIn Turin, Italian architecture firm Carlo Ratti has created a \u201cpersonalised\u201d heating, cooling and lighting system for the headquarters of the Agnelli Foundation. Individuals move through the building in a shifting \u201cbubble\u201d of their own cooling/heating/lighting preferences. This is made possible by hundreds of sensors built into walls, ceilings and doors that monitor the location of individuals and ambient conditions in the building. Individuals interact with the system via a smartphone app.\nSimilar sensors \u2013 but many more \u2013 are used in Deloitte\u2019s Amsterdam building, The Edge, a 40,000 square metre office that was lauded as the most environmentally sustainable office in the world when it opened in 2015. Around 28,000 sensors in the building constantly measure and accumulate data related to the building\u2019s systems, ambient conditions inside and outside, and the actions of people inside the building. In addition to environmental monitoring, hotdesking is also controlled by the Edge\u2019s systems and a smartphone app, allocating workspaces to employees when needed. The app can also be used to control car parking systems, to access lockers and to order food.\nTechnology is also improving office furniture. US company Herman Miller has developed a range of networked, intelligent office furniture, Live OS, which includes desks that can tell users when they have been sitting down for too long (with a gentle vibration, or a small light), then change from a conventional desk into a standing one. The system can also provide an employer with anonymised data showing how the furniture is being used \u2013 providing yet more information that could help optimise employee performance and, hopefully, improve working conditions.\nSceptics suggest that a workplace that aims to meet every conceivable employee need, such as Google\u2019s huge and incredibly well-equipped campus at Mountain View, California, are created with an ulterior motive: to ensure employees spend as much time as possible at work. But the counter-argument runs that if this were the case it would surely be counterproductive.\nA good employer wants to find the right balance between work and an employee\u2019s outside life, to keep them happier and healthier. Offering a great package of benefits, educational, medical and sports facilities and caf\u00e9s and restaurants serving free, healthy food should help improve employee wellbeing and engagement. Although not many companies can create a campus like Mountain View, Katsikakis expects to see growing numbers of smaller organisations building partnerships with other local businesses such as shops, gyms and hairdressers, to broaden the range of benefits and services they can offer employees.\nFor more than 20 years, use of mobile telecommunications has been enabling people to collaborate with each other from different locations. Burns thinks the use of augmented and virtual reality technologies will become more widespread, enabling more immersive, multi-location collaboration experiences than current video and audio conferencing technologies. Although big, centrally located headquarters may not die out, businesses are more likely to try and deploy more flexible real estate strategies, with shorter leases on buildings that can be used in a range of ways.\nKatsikakis expects one of the most important attributes of the office of the future is to be able to reconfigure as the nature of work and the technology used continues to evolve. But she believes that the need to appeal to potential employees may be the single most important influence on the location and form of offices in the future.\nPrior to joining Cushman & Wakefield in 2017, she advised the owners of 22 Bishopsgate, a new, 62-storey, 1.3m square foot office building under construction in the City of London. The building, which could be used by up to 12,000 workers, will house 100,000 square feet of \u201ccommunity\u201d space and facilities, for the people who work in the building, creating a \u201cvertical village\u201d. New experiences on offer will include a climbing wall on the (interior) glass wall of the building, with panoramic views over London.\n\u201cInstead of being about how to squeeze the most rentable space into the building, the focus is on how it might become a destination for people and a tool for the attraction and retention of talent,\u201d says Katsikakis.\nThis, she suggests, is the shape of things to come. Of course, underneath all this lovely, touchy-feely stuff, the workplace will still be a machine designed to generate productivity and profit. But at least it will be a more pleasant place for those who have to feed the machine.\nDeloitte\u2019s new offices at 1 New Street Square, London\nIn September, Deloitte opened its newest London building, 1 New Street Square, completing a \u201ccampus\u201d of four buildings there. The 280,000 square foot building will be used by more than 5,500 people. Offices feature 10 workspace formats used across 2,000 work settings, from standard desks to individual booths and other spaces designed to encourage interaction and collaboration.\nAn open staircase runs through the centre of the building, connecting different parts of the organisation. Two of the upper floors consist of spaces not assigned to a particular team, allowing staff to use them for a variety of work purposes, or to take a break: facilities include a restaurant, an outside terrace, games and a no technology zone.\n\u201cWe\u2019re supporting everyone in the way that they want to work,\u201d says Devinder Bhogal, senior manager for workplace services and real estate at Deloitte. Although employees do not have a desk that is always theirs, each team that will occupy a particular part of the building has helped to determine the decoration of that area. Bhogal says the aim is to create \u201can environment where people feel that sense of belonging\u201d.\nShe says the hotdesk policy, which means every desk is left empty and is then cleaned ready to be used again the following day, is popular with staff. \u201cThe fact that when people come in it\u2019s clean makes them feel ready to work, they tell us.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Liv Gjestvang is the associate vice president for learning technology, Ohio State University\u2019s Office of Distance Education and eLearning.\nHome\u00bbDigital Content\nLeading Edge: Ohio State's Liv Gjestvang on Creating a Healthy Workplace Culture\nAssociate VP for learning tech tells our writer how Ohio State advocates for education that is more affordable and more engaging.\nThe opportunities and the growth I\u2019ve had at Ohio State are closely connected to the leaders I\u2019ve worked with. They\u2019ve mentored and supported me, giving me the space to do work that matters to me.\nI have a strong commitment to social justice. Our team is doing a lot of work with open content and affordability for students. Education is expensive, so reducing the cost and creating more pathways to educational access are important to me and my team. We talk to students who struggle with whether to pay for food or buy a $240 textbook. We want to reduce the cost of course content to zero where we can, but are also looking at ways our team can support faculty in course redesign to transform teaching and learning.\nWith Ohio State\u2019s Affordable Learning Exchange, our team works to provide grants and instructional support for faculty. We don\u2019t have a single pathway faculty have to go down, but we customize for them. We want to shift the pedagogy toward more engaging strategies. Some faculty use our learning management system and identify articles in the library that students can access. Some use the Pressbooks authoring tool where they can create their own interactive, browser-based content. They can also assign students to do their own research and produce their own content.\nWhat we are finding is that if we are moving to digital content, it actually doesn\u2019t work well to take a traditional paper-based book and turn it into a flat PDF. That\u2019s not using the technology well, and students like that less. But when you use digital for what it\u2019s designed for, which is interactive and allows you to engage with it, such as taking notes or posing a question faculty or peers can respond to, the students enjoy that.\nGood Leaders Create Opportunities, Set Limits\nAs for my leadership style, I enjoy connecting with people. Relationships are important to me and I want our employees to have opportunities to grow and succeed.\nOne thing that has shifted for me is recognizing that having people who are committed to the team and are really hard workers is wonderful \u2014 but people who are so committed sometimes work in ways that are not good for them. I\u2019ve seen people who have pushed themselves past what was physically healthy and people who, at times, put work ahead of their family in ways I don\u2019t think is good. It\u2019s not the culture I want to build.\nThis is demanding work. We have teams that run the learning management system and a whole range of educational tools. Students have to take final exams and faculty have to submit grades, so these tools have to be up and running all the time. That\u2019s a lot of pressure. People sometimes work late or through the weekend. To me, we need to say, \u201cWhen you give to us like this, we expect you to take some time and get back to a place where you are healthy, balanced and ready to bring your full game back to work.\u201d\nI realized it\u2019s important to place limits. For me, it was figuring out how to help people turn away from the work and not just turn toward it. We have a range of strategies, including wellness programs, social events, a mentoring initiative and flex work programs so people can leave work early a couple of days to spend time with their family, then finish their work in the evenings.\nUniversity Leaders Should Support Visionary Tech Use\nI love the vision and strategy part of the work I do. Being able to imagine new possibilities and see challenges that we can address is important. Something I\u2019ve had to grow into as a leader is being able to step away from doing the day-to-day projects and figuring out how to support other people leading these initiatives. My team and I meet yearly to discuss, what is the work we are doing that we want to continue? What are the new opportunities we want to pursue? It\u2019s a constant challenge because it\u2019s so tempting to keep looking at what we want to add. At some point, if we continue to expand in new directions, there have to be things we step away from.\nI am lucky to have a team of colleagues who are experts in the work they do. They lead our Affordable Learning Exchange and College Ready Ohio programs and are connected to colleagues doing similar work around the country. They strategize around how we move ideas forward. I think about and connect with them about what the big opportunities are, and try to clear the way for them to blaze forward in that work.\nLeadership, technology and the mission of higher education are closely connected. We live in a world that\u2019s supported in so many ways by technology. I think a lot about how we support student success with technology. It\u2019s not just using technology for technology\u2019s sake, but having conversations around what students actually need.\nWhat Comes Next for Gjestvang\nOver the next several years, we are focusing heavily on our new Digital Flagship Initiative. It\u2019s a collaboration with Apple where we will develop a curriculum for students to learn basic coding skills and create an iOS design lab for Ohio State and the central Ohio community, where people can work with professionals to develop apps. There is also a technology piece in which incoming first-year students will get an Apple iPad, keyboard and other tools, so students who want to access educational content on a mobile device will have an easier way to do that.",

        "title": "Endowment (Latter Day Saints) - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "Endowment (Latter Day Saints)\nFor the modern Mormon practice, see Endowment (Mormonism).\nIn the theology of the Latter Day Saint movement, an endowment refers to a gift of \"power from on high\", typically associated with Latter Day Saint temples. The purpose and meaning of the endowment varied during the life of movement founder Joseph Smith. The term has referred to many such gifts of heavenly power, including the confirmation ritual, the institution of the High Priesthood in 1831, events and rituals occurring in the Kirtland Temple in the mid-1830s, and an elaborate ritual performed in the Nauvoo Temple in the 1840s.\nThe term endowment has the most significance to adherents of the Latter Day Saint branch known as Mormonism, including most prominently The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), which practices a form of the Nauvoo endowment. The Nauvoo endowment ceremony, introduced by Joseph Smith and codified by Mormon leader Brigham Young, consisted of symbolic acts and covenants designed to prepare participants to officiate in priesthood ordinances, and to give them the key words and tokens they need to pass by angels guarding the way to heaven. In the LDS Church's modern practices, the endowment ceremony directs new participants to take a number of solemn oaths or covenants such as an oath of consecration to the LDS Church. Also in the LDS Church's modern practices, completing the endowment ceremony is a prerequisite to both full-time missionary service and temple marriage. In order to enter a temple and participate in the endowment ceremony, church members must hold a current temple recommend.\n1830 endowments: Endowment of the Holy Spirit and confirmationEdit\nMain article: Confirmation (Latter Day Saints)\nA Latter Day Saint confirmation.\nAlthough it was not generally referred to as an endowment at the time, in retrospect, Latter Day Saints have viewed the confirmation, first performed on April 6, 1830, and attendant outpourings of the spiritual gifts, as an early type of endowment.[1] The term derives from the Authorized King James Version, referring to the spiritual gifts given the disciples of Jesus on the day of Pentecost, in which they were \"endowed with power from on high\".[2] Subsequent to these early confirmations, Mormons exhibited what they viewed as spiritual gifts such as having visions, prophecy, gift of healing, gift of knowledge, gift of tongues.[3] Unlike the other Latter Day Saint endowments, confirmation has continued to coexist with later endowments as a separate Latter Day Saint ordinance. In the Community of Christ, formerly known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the \"endowment of the Holy Spirit\" such as occurred on the day of Pentecost is the only recognized endowment.[4]\n1831 Kirtland endowment: Conferral of the High PriesthoodEdit\nMain article: Melchizedek Priesthood (Latter Day Saints)\nThe first reference to an endowment by Joseph Smith, the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement, was in early 1831, some days after Smith was joined in his ministry by Sidney Rigdon, a newly converted Campbellite minister from Ohio. Rigdon's congregation also was converted to Smith's Church of Christ. Rigdon had apparently disagreed with the Campbellites in that he believed in a Pentecostal endowment of power beyond the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit endowed upon confirmation.[5] While Rigdon believed the teachings of the early Mormon missionaries who converted him, he thought the missionaries were lacking in heavenly power.[6]\nIn January 1831, Smith issued a revelation where he wrote that after Mormons relocated to Kirtland, Ohio, they would \"be endowed with power from on high\" and \"sent forth\".[7] Smith reiterated this in February 1831, stating that the \"elders of the church Smith reaffirmed that the faithful members would \"be taught from on high\" and \"endowed with power\",[8] and that God would call the elders of the church together in Kirtland in a general conference and \"pour out [his] Spirit upon them in that day they assemble themselves together\".[9] In a revelation given to an individual, Smith assured the man that \"at the conference meeting he [would] be ordained unto power from on high\".[10]\nThis general conference of the church was held from June 3 to June 6, 1831, in which a number of men were ordained to the \"High\" or \"Melchizedek\" Priesthood for the first time,[11] which ordination \"consisted [of] the endowment--it being a new order--and bestowed authority\".[12] Later that year, an early convert who had left the church claimed that many of the Saints \"have been ordained to the High Priesthood, or the order of Melchizedek; and profess to be endowed with the same power as the ancient apostles were\".[13]\n1833 Kirtland endowment: School of the ProphetsEdit\nMain article: School of the Prophets\nIn 1833, Joseph Smith established what he called a School of the Prophets,\nAlthough the events at this school were never specifically called an \"endowment\", it has been classified as such by scholars including Gregory A. Prince because of similarities with the 1831 and 1836 endowments, and the fact that part of the school's stated intention was so that the church's elders could be \"endowed with power from on high\".[14] At the beginning, the school was \"accompanied by a pentecostal outpouring, including speaking in tongues, prophesying and 'many manifestations of the holy spirit'\".[14] It included a new Latter Day Saint ordinance of foot washing.[14]\nThe 1836 Kirtland endowmentEdit\nKirtland Temple, site of the Kirtland endowment in 1836 and 1837.\nA year and a half after the June 1831 endowment, Smith said he received a revelation in December 1832 to prepare to build a \"house of God\", or a temple.[15] A revelation soon followed identifying the location of the temple in Kirtland, Ohio,[16] and another revelation affirmed that in this building the Lord \"design[ed] to endow those [he] had chosen with power on high\".[17] In a later revelation the Lord indicated that the elders were to be \"endowed with power from on high; for [he had] prepared a greater endowment\" than the 1831 endowment.[18] Upon the completion of the Kirtland Temple after three years of construction (1833\u201336), the elders of the church gathered for this second promised endowment in early 1836.\nThe Kirtland Temple endowment ceremonies were patterned after Old Testament sacerdotal practices. They consisted of preparatory washings, administered in private homes, in which men washed and purified their bodies with water and alcohol[citation needed]. After this, they gathered in the temple where they were anointed with specially consecrated oil and with blessings pronounced upon their heads by Smith and other church leaders. The men's anointings were sealed with uplifted hands. Following these ceremonies many men reported participating in extraordinary spiritual experiences, such as seeing visions, speaking prophecies or receiving revelations. The culmination of the endowment was a solemn assembly, held on March 30, in which the men partook of the sacrament and then washed each other's feet. Those present spent the rest of the day and night prophesying, speaking in tongues, testifying and exhorting each other.[19][20] To those present it was a \"day of Pentecost\". Indeed, Smith told the solemn assembly that they could now \"go forth and build up the kingdom of God\".[21]\nOn April 3, 1836, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery recounted the appearance of Jesus to them in the Kirtland Temple, and his acceptance of the building as his house. This was followed by the appearance of three Old Testament prophets: Moses, Elias, and Elijah, each of whom bestowed additional temple-related authority on the two men.[22]\nInitially, Smith intended the Kirtland endowment to become an annual affair; he administered the same ceremonies again in 1837.[23] However, because of persecution[citation needed] the Mormons largely abandoned Kirtland and its temple in 1838-39 and moved west. As Smith's theology expanded during the 1840s, the Kirtland endowment was superseded by the Nauvoo endowment. Mormons looked back upon the Kirtland Temple rituals with the authority bestowed by the three prophets as preparatory to the greater endowment revealed at Nauvoo. This was certainly the view of Brigham Young, who said:\n\u201c And those first Elders who helped to build it [Kirtland Temple], received a portion of their first endowments, or we might say more clearly, some of the first, or introductory, or initiatory ordinances, preparatory to an endowment. The preparatory ordinances there administered, though accompanied the ministration of angels, and the presence of the Lord Jesus, were but a faint similitude of the ordinances of the House of the Lord in their fulness.[24] \u201d\nThe Nauvoo endowmentEdit\nMain article: Endowment (Mormonism)\nA woman dressed in the robes of the Nauvoo endowment, circa the 1870s.\nOn May 3, 1842, Joseph Smith prepared the second floor of his Red Brick Store, in Nauvoo, Illinois, to represent \"the interior of a temple as circumstances would permit\".[25] The next day, May 4, he introduced the Nauvoo endowment ceremony to nine associates: Associate President and Patriarch to the Church Hyrum Smith (Smith's brother); first counselor in the First Presidency, William Law; three of the Twelve Apostles, Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball and Willard Richards; Nauvoo stake president, William Marks; two bishops, Newel K. Whitney and George Miller; and a close friend, Judge James Adams of Springfield, Illinois.\nThroughout 1843 and 1844, Smith continued to initiate other men, as well as women, into the endowment ceremony. By the time of his death on June 27, 1844, more than 50 persons had been admitted into the Anointed Quorum, the name by which this group called themselves.\nThe Nauvoo endowment consisted of two phases: (1) an initiation, and (2) an instructional and testing phase. The initiation consisted of a washing and anointing, culminating in the clothing of the patron in a \"Garment of the Holy Priesthood\", which is thereafter worn as an undergarment.\nThe instructional and testing phase of the endowment consisted of a scripted reenactment of Adam and Eve's experience in the Garden of Eden (performed by live actors called officiators; in the mid-20th century certain portions were adapted to a film presentation).[26] The instruction is punctuated with personal covenants, gestures, and a prayer circle around an altar. At the end of instruction, the initiate's knowledge of symbolic gestures and key-words is tested at a \"veil\", a symbolic final frontier for the initiate to face the judgement of Jesus, before entering the presence of God in the celestial kingdom.[27]\nTemple (Latter Day Saints)\n^ See, e.g., Talmage (1912, pp. 74\u201376) (James E.

It was built in 1624 as a replacement for Fort Nassau, which had been built on nearby Castle Island and served as a trading post until 1617 or 1618, when it was abandoned due to frequent flooding. Both forts were named in honor of the Dutch House of Orange-Nassau.[1] Due to a dispute between the Director-General of New Netherland and the patroonship of Rensselaerswyck regarding jurisdiction over the fort and the surrounding community, the fort and community became an independent municipality, paving the way for the future city of Albany. After conquest of the region by the English, they soon abandoned Fort Orange (renamed Fort Albany) in favor of a new fort: Fort Frederick, constructed in 1676.\n1.1 Subsequent occupation\n2 Commanders of the fort\n2.1 as Fort Albany under the English\n2.2 as Fort Nassau under the Dutch\nMap of Castle Island and Fort Orange in 1629\nIn 1624, a ship with 30 Protestant Walloons (French-speaking people from what is today southern Belgium) landed in New Netherland; 18 of the men were sent to the location near present-day Albany. Under direction of the Dutch, they built Fort Orange roughly 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Fort Nassau, which was prone to flooding, and about five miles south of the confluence of the Mohawk River and the North River.[2]\nThe Walloons were later recalled south to settle New Amsterdam. A 1628 publication on the population of New Netherland stated that \"there are no families at Fort Orange ... they keep five or six and twenty (25 or 26) persons, traders, there\". [1] In 1626, the commander of Fort Orange and a company of men set out from the fort to assist the Mahican people in their war against the Mohawk, the powerful Iroquois tribe based in the Mohawk Valley to the west of the fort. The Dutch party was ambushed and three men were killed approximately a mile from the fort, roughly where Lincoln Park and Delaware Avenue are sited today.[3]\nWhereas later settlement would be through the purchase of land from the Native Americans, the Dutch built Fort Orange without any consent. They continued to hold it only through the goodwill of the Mahican, and the occasional presents that they gave to the local Mahicans.[citation needed]\nWhen the Dutch established the Charter of Privileges and Exemptions in 1629 setting up the patroon system, Kiliaen van Rensselaer established his patroonship of Rensselaerswyck, surrounding Fort Orange on 24 miles (39 km) of shoreline along the Hudson River and 24 miles (39 km) inland on each side of the fort. This land patent was interpreted by van Rensselaer as including Fort Orange and the settlement that had begun outside its walls. He began purchasing and acquiring title to the lands from the Mahican.[citation needed]\nIn 1630, Gillis Hoosett purchased in van Rensselaer's name the lands to the south and north of the fort from the natives. Later in 1630 the first permanent Dutch settlers and farmers came to Fort Orange and settled on the outskirts of the fort; their village was first called the Fuyck and later Beverwyck. In 1634 the commander of Fort Orange ordered Harmen Meyndertsz van den Bogaert west into the Mohawk Valley and Indian country, for the purpose of understanding why the fur trade had declined. The trip lasted six weeks and took Bogaert and his men through a number of Mohawk villages and into Oneida villages, at least 100 miles from the fort. This journey was recorded in van den Bogaert's daily journal which is titled, A Journey into Mohawk and Oneida Country.[4] In the 1640s a French Jesuit priest and missionary, Isaac Jogues, described Fort Orange as \"a wretched little fort ... built of stakes, with four or five pieces of cannon of Breteuil\".[1]\nIn 1648, dispute arose between agents of the Dutch West India Company and agents of the patroon over control of Fort Orange and the surrounding settlement. The Director-General of New Netherland, representing the West India Company, was Pieter Stuyvesant, who saw the patroon's position, power, and land as a direct threat to the West India Company's ability to profit from the beaver pelt trade in Fort Orange. Several confrontations arose over the status of the fort and the rights of settlers around it. Stuyvesant at first ordered all buildings within cannon shot of the fort to be destroyed, then lowered that circumference to that of musket shot. In response, the patroon's agent, Commander van Schlechtenhorst, decided to expand settlement to \"within pistol shot of Fort Orange\".\nAfter the yearly freshets had damaged much of the fort, the West India Company decided to reconstruct the fort using stone. In response, van Schlechtenhorst declared it illegal for anyone to quarry stone within Rensselaerswyck for the fort or for anyone to sell the material to the fort's commander, Carl van Brugge. All material for the fort had to be shipped in from outside the colony. Van Schlechtenhorst claimed that Fort Orange had been illegally built on the patroon's lands, while Stuyvesant noted that Fort Orange had been built 15 years prior to the establishment of Rensselaerswyck.\nIn 1651, Stuyvesant declared the jurisdiction of the fort to extend 600 paces around the fort, thereby severing it from Rensselaerswyck; he appointed Johannes Dyckman as commissary of Fort Orange. In 1652, Stuyvesant, to settle this dispute once and for all, set up a \"Court of Justice for the Village of Beverwyck and its dependencies\", the first municipal government for the future city of Albany.[1][5]\nAt the time when Beverwyck consisted of roughly 100 structures huddled next to the fort, Stuyvesant set up Beverwyck at a safer distance from the cannons of the fort and laid out future Albany's oldest streets- State Street and Broadway.[6]\nBy the end of the 1650s, the fort was in disrepair again,[7] and both Fort Orange and Beverwyck were enclosed by a wooden stockade in 1660.[8]\nIn 1663, smallpox raged in Fort Orange, killing one person a day, which was a large percentage given the small population in the fort.[citation needed] On September 8, 1664, the English, after sending numerous war ships to New Amsterdam, demanded the surrender of New Netherland and came to terms with the Dutch. On that date New Netherland became the Province of New York with Colonel Richard Nicolls appointed as the first English colonial governor; New Amsterdam was renamed New York. Johannes De Decker sailed on that day from New Amsterdam to Fort Orange to rally the troops and settlers to resist English rule. On September 10, Governor Nicholls sent troops to demand the peaceful surrender of the \"Fort Aurania\", aurania being the Latin name for \"orange\" that the English used when referring to Fort Orange.[citation needed]\nIt was not until September 24, 1664 that vice-director of New Netherland Johannes de Montagne surrendered the fort to the English, and Colonel George Cartwright took command. On the 25th, Captain John Manning was given control of the fort, which was renamed Fort Albany; Beverwyck was named Albany.[n 1]\nIn 1673 the Dutch retook New York City, which they named New Orange, on July 29, then retook Albany on August 3. In September, Albany was renamed Willemstadt and Fort Albany became Fort Nassau. The Treaty of Westminster, signed on February 19, 1674, renamed New Orange and Willemstadt back to their English names; Fort Nassau became Fort Albany and Willemstadt became Albany.[3]\nIn 1666, Jeremias van Rensselaer, then-patroon of Rensselaerswyck, had petitioned the new government of Governor Nicholls to recognize Fort Albany (Fort Orange) as part of Rensselaerswyck. Governor Nicholls informed him that he would be wise to drop the matter until he heard from the Duke of York. In 1678, Governor Andros issued to the patroon's heirs a grant reaffirming the patroon's rights over Rensselaerswyck, but leaving out Fort Albany and the immediate area around the fort.[3]\nThe English abandoned Fort Orange and built a new fort on top of State Street Hill named Fort Frederick; it served both to defend the settlement from the Mohawk and other Iroquois to the west and to be on high ground to remind the Dutch inhabitants of English rule. The land around the old fort was sold to the Dutch Reformed Church for use as pastureland, but the fort structure continued to deteriorate. It was indicated on maps during the 18th century, labeled as \"ruins of an Old Fort.\" Richard Smith observed that there was \"nothing to be seen of Fort Orange... but the Ditch which surrounded it\".[7] After the American Revolutionary War, the deteriorated site of the old fort was memorialized as a historic site and was the site of many historical observances.[6]\nSubsequent occupation[edit]\nSimeon De Witt built a large house or mansion and a number of outbuildings on the site of the old fort during the 1790s; the address for the site of the old fort became 549 South Market Street (later Broadway).[7][12] On his property traces of the old fort could still be seen as late as 1812.[6] He lived at this location while he was the surveyor-general of New York.[12] Following his death, his mansion and outbuildings were adapted for use as the Fort Orange Hotel. It burned down in 1848 but was rebuilt under the same name.[7]\nIn 1886, as part of the bicentennial of Albany's incorporating document, the Dongan Charter, the city erected a bronze tablet at the site of the northeastern bastion of Fort Orange. In the 1930s the tablet was moved during construction of the Dunn Memorial Bridge, and for almost 100 years it did not mark the site of Fort Orange. The Albany Institute of History and Art has a cannonball labeled as \"Dug up at Fort Orange site July 22nd 1886\", the date the bicentennial marker was placed. No known archeological excavations were done other than placing the sign. The tablet was moved again in 1971 after excavations discovered remnants of the fort during construction of Interstate 787 and the interchange with the South Mall Expressway. The marker was returned to the site of Fort Orange, but not to the former location of the northeastern bastion.[6]\nAs the Fort Orange Archeological Site, the area of the fort was declared a National Historic Landmark (and added to the National Register of Historic Places) on November 4, 1993.[13]\nCommanders of the fort[edit]\nAdriaen Jorrissen Thienpont[14][15]\nDaniel van Krieckebeck (\"Crieckenbeeck ... killed by Mohawks in 1626\"[16])\nBastiaen Jansz Krol (\"appointed commissary of Fort Orange several months ... after ... was killed by Mohawks in 1626\"; \"Krol returned to the Netherlands in 1629\"[16])\nHans Jorissen Houten\nCarl van Brugge\nJohannes Dyckman\nJohannes de Decker\nJohannes de la Montagne\nas Fort Albany under the English[edit]\nCaptain John Manning\nCaptain John Baker\nLieutenant Salisbury\nas Fort Nassau under the Dutch[edit]\nLieutenant Andries Draeyer\nHistorical marker on Broadway at Foot of State St.\nPrior to the 1970 excavations, no 17th-century Dutch artifacts had been discovered in Albany. The excavations were undertaken by the New York State Historic Trust with the New York State Department of Transportation from October 20, 1970 until March 1971. The first test hole was made in what had been the cellar of the De Witt house, which had obliterated all remnants of the old fort. Digging at a site under Broadway in front of the house turned up many pieces from the Dutch colonial past. Among those were a Jew's harp, tobacco pipes, beads, Rhenish stoneware, and Delftware.[6] The excavations also revealed the south moat and counterscarp, a pebbled path from the east entrance of the fort, a brewery owned by Jean Labatie built in 1647, and parts of several houses owned by Hendrick Andriessen van Doesburgh, Abraham Staats, and Hans Vos.[6]\nFrom the excavations, scholars noted that venison made up the majority of the meat eaten by the settlers of the fort, followed by pork. The greatest number of fish bones and scales were found in a pit 20 feet (6.1 m) south of the pebbled entrance path dating from before 1648. Sturgeon were found infrequently in later 17th-century deposits. Eating and drinking utensils consisted of lead-glazed red-bodied and white/buff bodied earthenware, tin earthenware, Rhenish stoneware, Chinese porcelain, glass roemers, Spechter glasses, and fa\u00e7on de Venise glassware. The tin-glazed earthenware, at least prior to 1650, were of the majolica variety and not the delft. Porcelain was rare, found only as a few shards.[6] The site was in continual use and artifacts recovered include 1830's Creamware or Pearlware and 1860's copper bottom coffee pot remnants. The artifacts from the excavation are housed at the New York State Museum.\nList of National Historic Landmarks in New York\nNational Register of Historic Places listings in Albany, New York\n^ Beverwyck was named \"Albany\" in honor of the Duke of York and of Albany (later James II of England).[citation needed] James Stuart (1633\u20131701), brother and successor of Charles II, was both the Duke of York and of Albany before being crowned James II of England and James VII of Scotland in 1685. His title of Duke of York is the source of the name of the province of New York.[9] Duke of Albany was a Scottish title given since 1398, generally to a younger son of the King of Scots.[10] The name is ultimately derived from Alba, the Gaelic name for Scotland.[11]\n^ a b c d Howell, George and Jonathan Tenney (1886).

The leaves are 6\u201312 cm long with prominently undulate margins and rich aniseed aroma when crushed.\nFlowers are white and sweetly scented, borne in panicles. The fruit are dry papery capsules around 5 mm long and are white in appearance.\nRingwood's natural distribution in the wild is restricted to the Nambucca and Bellinger Valleys in the subtropics of New South Wales, Australia.[4]\nUsed as a flavouring spice and herbal tea ingredient. Although previously known, it was first sold in the early 1990s as a bushfood spice, and in the mid 1990s cultivated in plantations to meet demand.[5][6]\nThe essential oil of S. anisatum contains anethole and methyl chavicol, imparting licorice and aniseed flavours respectively.\n'Aniseed myrtle' is the name originally coined to specifically describe high quality selections of the trans-anethole chemotype (90%+) - generally recognized as safe for flavouring. These selections are propagated from cutting for consistent essential oil quality. The aniseed myrtle selections are also low in methyl chavicol and cis-anethole (less than 0.1%).\nResearch indicates that aniseed myrtle oil has antimicrobial activity, including on the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans.[7]\nMyrtle rust[edit]\nA significant fungal pathogen, myrtle rust (Uredo rangelii), was detected in aniseed myrtle plantations in January 2011.[8] Myrtle rust severely damages new growth and threatens aniseed myrtle production.

Without its active and ambitious contribution, any action to combat climate change will be insufficient by a huge margin,\u201c says climate change expert.Vishwa Mohan | TNN | June 03, 2017, 14:00 IST\nNew Delhi: Indian environmentalists are not surprised by the US president's withdrawal from the Paris deal and the fact that it could severely hobble efforts to cut emissions and adopt renewable energy world over.\nWhat's enraged them is Donald Trump's bid to justify the exit of the world's second-largest emitter by flagging, erroneously, India's demand for funds for its transition to clean energy.\nThe US, under Trump's leadership, is attempting to hide behind its inaction they said. This, at a time when developing nations India and China are moving at a fast clip towards renewable energy by tapping solar and wind power in a big way .\nThe US move could spell a `death blow' to the Paris agreement, it is felt. Centre for Science and Environment's Sunita Narain said that meeting the objectives of the Paris agreement has become an uphill task after Trump's decision. \u201cTrump has sounded the death knell for the Paris accord\u201c. \u201cThe US is historically the largest emitter of greenhouse gases, and a major current emitter. Without its active and ambitious contribution, any action to combat climate change will be insufficient by a huge margin,\u201c says Chandra Bhushan, climate change expert at CSE.\nHe believes that even if other countries raise their targets, they'd not be able to fill the void left by the US. \u201cIt is not sufficient to shift the burden of addressing climate change to other countries -including China and India.\u201c But others are confident that positive trends in the decline of prices of renewable energy will continue to drive global action.\n\u201cIndia, whose citizens consume less than a tenth the electricity an average American does, is already turning its economy toward clean energy ,\u201c said Navroz K Dubash, senior fellow at Centre for Policy Research.Noting that the Trump administration `fundamentally misunderstands' the changes sweeping the global energy economy , Dubash said, \u201cTrump is hiding behind India's poor who, meanwhile, are already making the transition to clean energy that Trump scorns as unviable.\u201c\nAjay Mathur at TERI said, \u201cAbsence of the US leadership and financial support in implementing the deal could delay actions to cut emissions and adapt to climate change.\"\nTags : Renewable, Paris climate deal, Paris climate agreement, Paris accord, Paris, India climate agreement, environment, Donald Trump",

        "raw_content": "Gender Differences in the Measurement of Creative Problem-Solving\nHardy, Jay H., III; Gibson, Carter\nJournal of Creative Behavior , v51 n2 p153-162 Jun 2017\nDespite significant scholarly attention, the literature on the existence and direction of gender differences in creativity has produced inconsistent findings. In the present paper, we argue that this lack of consensus may be attributable, at least in part, to gender-specific inconsistencies in the measurement of creative problem-solving. To explore this possibility, we empirically tested assumptions of multiple-group measurement invariance using samples borrowed from four recent studies that assessed creative problem-solving (J.D. Barrett et al., 2013; K.S. Hester et al., 2012; D.R. Peterson et al., 2013; I.C. Robledo et al., 2012). Across the four samples, apparent gender differences emerged on all three components of S.P. Besemer & K. O'Quin's (1999) three-facet model of creativity (i.e., quality, originality, and elegance) such that, on average, females appeared to exhibit higher baseline levels of creativity. However, in light of violations of measurement invariance assumptions across genders found in these samples, comparisons such as these may not ultimately be appropriate. Although the underlying factor structure and factor loadings on a unitary creativity factor were consistent across gender (i.e., weak factorial invariance), measurement in-equivalence assumptions were violated at the subfacet level (i.e., strong factorial invariance). Implications of these findings for understanding gender differences in creative problem-solving are discussed.\nDescriptors: Gender Differences, Creativity, Problem Solving, Factor Structure, Measurement Techniques, Gender Bias, Models\nSponsor: National Science Foundation (NSF)\nGrant or Contract Numbers: IIS0852589",

        "raw_content": "Kabloona Friday (Summer comes, and with it, the end.)\nJanuary 29, 2016 December 3, 2015 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tanthropology, arctic, Eskimo, ethnography, Inuit, Kabloona Friday, mental illness, summer, sun madness\nThis is the last installment of quotes from Kabloona, an account of Gontran \u201cMike\u201d dePoncins\u2019s year spent among the Eskimo of Canada in 1939. To make it easier to read, I am going to dispense with the blockquote:\n\u201cSpring was returning to the arctic. The temperature rose till it stood well above zero, and suddenly one day\u2013it was the 25th April\u2013it mounted to 30 degrees Fahrenheit. A nasty warm wind was blowing, the kind of win which, at home, makes us fearful of catching an unseasonable cold. The \u201cheat\u201d was intolerable. \u2026\nLight had come to the northern night\u2013or if this was not light, at any rate it was no longer darkness. The air was filled with an eerie glow; the horizon was swollen with the promise of light, and the night was a ruddy purple. \u2026 as the days went by the lamp became unnecessary and we had the light of the sky all though the night.\nOne of the most curious things was our resistance to sleep. \u2026 Sleep would not come. I would get quietly out of bed and go out-of-doors to sketch. \u2026 Across the northern sky stretched a band like white gold, white and liquid, like gold in a crucible. \u2026 The southern sky was a hard bright blue, and so luminous that the caplets of islands and the faraway mountains emerged in the distance with brilliant clarity. \u2026 something stirring, something vibrant was present that filled the being with a nameless agitation. It was impossible to be still. You wanted to walk, to run, to go on endlessly from hillock to hillock, shouting verses aloud, singing songs you had never before heard. You were seized by what could easily become delirium and might move you as plausibly to religious ecstasy as to sexual explosion\u2013of itself and without the intervention of your will. The earth was being born again. You were witnessing its creation. You wanted harps to chant its glory\u2019 and you knew that it was moving the missionaries to prayer and urging on the Eskimos to their indefatigable mating. \u2026\nIt was three o\u2019clock in the morning and children were at play out on the frozen sea. Women, their mothers, sat on the point of a knoll and watched them, called out to them. \u2026 They will wander like this all summer long, sleeping only when they are too weary to stand, and sleeping wherever they happen to find themselves\nThis is the season of Eskimo madness, particularly for the young. I remember a boy of eleven or twelve years, named Ivitaligak, who went out of his mind every spring. do not know if this malady exists elsewhere in the same way, but with Eskimo youths it takes the form of a violent somnambulism. Ivitaligak would rove like a somnambulist, coming, going shrieking, beating his head with his fists and screaming, \u201cGive me a rifle! Give me a rifle! I want to kill myself!\u201d It would not have been hard for him to kill himself before coming to. That night he picked up in both hands a burning stove and shook it violently without feeling the burns. His friends threw him down and pummeled him to try to wake him, but no one could do it. They smacked him again and again, holding him down on the ground as he twisted and contorted himself: all in vain. \u2026 Once awake again, he could remember nothing that had happened and when they told him, he burst out laughing and refused to believe them. His father, Anarvik, said to me that this always happened int he spring, when the boy did not get enough sleep, wandered all night long, night after night, and stretched out occasionally on the bare ground to slumber. Angulalik\u2019s little son, Wakwak, displayed the same symptoms, though not so violently. Once they came to, the boys complained of headaches; but these things pass when they grow to be men.\nUnlike ourselves, the Eskimos are still children of nature. Spring, the season of rut in the animal kingdom, induces physiological mutations in them. They change color: from earth brown they turn purple, a red glow lies over their cheekbones, and their eyes shine with a strange gleam. Here at Perry River a frenzy of sexuality had spread through the camp, embracing every member of it. Day and night they copulated in a sort of delirium, inexhaustible and insatiable.\nImagine a world covered by the waters of an endlessly wide lake, and the waters receding until only peaks emerge like islands over the lake-bottom. There were hundreds of these peaks as far as the eye could see, with here and there a ridge that ran like a prehistoric river bank, its smoothly worn slope covered with pebbles that appeared from far away as fine as sand. Infinite in distance, hushed, seemingly deserted by man and beast, it was the landscape of a fairytale. Far away. farther away than I have ever been able to see anywhere in the world, the sun burned on the rim of a ridge, and every peak and slope and hillock stood bathed in a ruddy pink light, a rose that was unreal in its liquid softness. There were days enough when the land of the Eskimo, with its blizzards and its grey and horizonless air, had seemed to me in truth a ghastly world; but on this day, seeing this immensity spread out before me, being conscious of the solitude in which I stood gazing at it, I recognized the right of the Eskimo to the pride he took in his land, and fancied that in his mind this was an offering made to him by who knows what god, and that he too felt himself a member of a chosen people. Here, I told myself, is their Eden, this wide world stocked by the Great Giver with the magnificent game that came up year after year to feed them and arm them and clothe them and surrender itself, the constituent fundament of their households.\nI thought of the months on the trail, of the hardships and even miseries I had endued, and of a sudden I began to miss them with an intensity which amazed me and which, since then, has never left me. \u2026 God knows we were poor enough. Our poverty was total. We possessed nothing: not even the snow was our own. \u2026 But there was a cheer and a contentment in our existence which I continue to muse upon and cannot altogether explain to myself. Was it because infinite poverty lent infinite price to the least object? There was more to it than this. I had lost all I owned, but had found great riches. Like a religious, I possessed the veritable treasures, those which could not be taken from me. I had lost the world, but I had found myself, had exchanged the glitter for the gold. Within me had lain potentialities for moral serenity;, and I had not known it. Storm and danger had been my salvation, an without them my spirit should have dropped heedlessly off to sleep in my flesh. Thee on that Arctic tundra I had constructed myself from within. Up though the lined and frozen layers of skin on my face, my true visage had begun to emerge, the visage that God had meant all men to show to one another; and that visage all the blizzards, all the adversity in the world could not decompose. \u2026\nI say \u201cwe\u201d but I cannot pretend of course to lend to the Eskimos these thoughts I now express. The poverty that was my salvation had from the beginning of time been theirs \u2026 These men about whom I knew properly nothing at all, these beings of another race separated from me by thousand of years of the evolution of my kind, had stood shoulder to shoulder with me in the blizzard. With my friends Outside there had always been differences, we had always remained personalities, individuals. Here, after the first few weeks of my probation, none of this existed: he contact was direct, devoid of the detours of personality. Day after day a wind would raise, a sign of danger would appear in the air, and we would respond together, each forgetting himself and striving in the common cause. Outside, it wanted war and flood to give man this sense of brotherhood: here it was a commonplace of life. \u2026\nI stood on the shores of Ellice Island and said to myself that I did not want to leave this land. \u2026 And as I turned and walked down the hill, I knew that my fate lay elsewhere; and I know now that it lies in France. \u2026 for a Frenchman of our time, the trail back leads home.\u201d\nAnd thus de Poncins returns home just in time for World War II.\nCathedral Round Up #6: Dartmouth\u2019s Diversity Scam\nJanuary 28, 2016 January 28, 2016 evolutiontheorist The Cathedral\tBlack Lives Matter, Branch Davidians, Cathedral, Cathedral Round Up, Dartmouth, diversity, Oregon Militia, scams\nThis month, I decided to take a look at Dartmouth, better known for drunken frat parties than Ivy League-style academic excellence.\nKeggy the Keg, Dartmouth\u2019s mascot\nSo it turns out that being part of the Ivy League actually has nothing to do with academic excellence; it\u2019s just an athletic conference. That\u2019s right, the entire perception of academic prestige is due to Dartmouth and Harvard occasionally playing football together.\nDartmouth\u2019s motto is Vox clamantis in deserto, which is Latin for \u201cHelp, I\u2019m stuck in New Hampshire!\u201d\nTechnically, that\u2019s still better than Cornell\u2019s motto, \u201cI would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study.\u201d\n(That\u2019s\u2026 not a motto.)\nDartmouth comes across like a culturally blue-tribe white frat guy who\u2019s never actually met any black or Hispanic people, but knows that anti-racism is the difference between people like him and beer-swilling rednecks from the South.\nDon\u2019t ask me why; I hail from one of those regions where Prohibition is still in force.\nAs you would expect, Dartmouth is therefore trying to correct its \u201cwhiteness problem.\u201d\nFrom The Dartmouth, which bills itself as America\u2019s Oldest Student Newspaper, Vice Provost Aims for Faculty Diversity:\n\u201cVice provost for academic initiatives Denise Anthony, who assumed the position last October, has been entrusted to help retain and recruit a diverse faculty at the College.\u201d\nAnthony is a sociologist whose specialty appears to be patient trust of electronic health care records, which doesn\u2019t seem like an ideal background for the job, but then, it\u2019s probably not hurting her. The article continues:\nAnthony\u2019s new position was publicized during College President Phil Hanlon\u2019s \u201cMoving Dartmouth Forward\u201d speech late last month, in which he also said the College has committed $1 million per year to further this diversity initiative. \u2026\nDiversity is big business these days.\n\u201cTo the extent that we are an educational institution and really training the next generation of thinkers and leaders, it is also necessary to have a diverse faculty to be training those leaders to recognize the value of diversity,\u201d Anthony said.\nIf you were my student and you produced a sentence like that, I would circle it in red and tell you to fix it. There is no \u201cextent\u201d to which Dartmouth is an educational institution; Dartmouth is an educational institution.\nHer goal, she said, is to increase recruitment and retention for underrepresented groups such as African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans and Asian Americans in a variety of fields and women in science.\nI\u2019m circling this one in red, too.\nAny time a department does a faculty search, that department works with the dean to create a search committee. The $1 million in annual funds will go in part toward increasing resources for department search committees, such as websites and literature on unconscious bias that search committees can utilize before they commence a search, she said. These resources will be available to any department.\nWow, a million dollars to recommend a website!\nThe sheer level of scam astounds me. This woman is being given $1 million dollars a year to email links to other professors. Hey, Dartmouth, I\u2019ll make you a deal: pay me a measly $900,000 per year, and I\u2019ll email you all the links you want. You get to save $100,000, and my links will be much more entertaining.\nPlus, I\u2019ve got much better credentials.\nSuccess for the program would mean an increase in the number of underrepresented faculty and in their retention, along with the full engagement of those faculty members.\nNot the production of knowledge or education of students or any of those silly, results-based measures of \u201cacademic\u201d success. After all, Anthony thinks Dartmouth is only an educational institution \u201cto an extent.\u201d Perhaps its other purpose is simply \u201cto hire people.\u201d\nAnthony said she meets with faculty and staff from the Geisel School of Medicine and the Thayer School of Engineering daily to talk about diversity on a student and staff level.\nEvery day? What do they have to talk about?\nAnthony: So, is the Engineering Department still mostly white?\nEngineering Faculty: Yes.\nAnthony: Well, that\u2019s enough talk to justify billing this lunch to the department. Let\u2019s get started on our appetizers.\nEngineering Faculty: \u2026 You know new students only really start school once a year, right? And that day wasn\u2019t yesterday.\nAnthony: Is that a yes?\nRepeat ad nauseam. But moving on with the article\u2026\nChair of the African and African American studies program and English professor Gretchen Gerzina, who has been teaching at the College for 10 years, said that she thinks faculty of color leave Dartmouth for a variety of reasons\u2026\nGretchen Gerzina is about as black as Rachel Dolezal, complete with the fake-permed hair:\nYale has this same problem:\nElizabeth Alexander, poet, Yale professor\nYou know, I might think this is funny, but I bet actually black women don\u2019t think it\u2019s funny when majority white-DNA women perm their hair and take jobs meant for blacks.\nFact is, it is actually trivially simple to hire black people if you want to. There are, after all, nearly 42 million black people in this country, and even though Dartmouth is, as Gerzina notes, located in an isolated backwoods with little to do on a Friday night but attend frat parties, it still would not take much effort to find a couple hundred who would be willing to come write poetry and opine for Dartmouth\u2019s students on the \u201cAfrican American experience.\u201d\nThese might not be folks with the kind of credentials traditionally looked for in Ivy League professors, but it is easy to wave that away by pointing out, quite accurately, that such credential requirements disproportionately rule out black (and Hispanic) applicants.\nBut finding (and keeping) qualified black professors, especially in fields with technical requirements that you can\u2019t just wave away, is much harder, hence the continuous demands that elite institutions allocate more money to attract them. Being even vaguely black is a high-demand commodity.\nLet\u2019s finish the article:\nBetween 2006 and 2013, Yale University had a faculty diversity initiative, which focused on increasing the number of underrepresented minority faculty members and women in science. The initiative set the hiring goal of 30 minority and 30 female professors from 2006 until June 2013. As of February 2013, the University was able to retain 22 minority and 18 female faculty members, one year after the university hired 56 minority and 30 female faculty members.\nAnd look what a harmonious place Yale has become:\nMeanwhile at The Dartmouth Review, Eyes Wide Open at the Protest:\nBlack-clad protesters gathered in front of Dartmouth Hall, forming a crowd roughly one hundred fifty strong. Ostensibly there to denounce the removal of shirts from a display in Collis, the Black Lives Matter collective began to sing songs and chant their eponymous catchphrase. Not content to merely demonstrate there for the night, the band descended from their high-water mark to march into Baker-Berry Library.\n\u201cF*** you, you filthy white f***s!\u201d \u201cF*** you and your comfort!\u201d \u201cF*** you, you racist s***!\u201d\nThese shouted epithets were the first indication that many students had of the coming storm. The sign-wielding, obscenity-shouting protesters proceeded through the usually quiet backwaters of the library. They surged first through first-floor Berry, then up the stairs to the normally undisturbed floors of the building, before coming back down to the ground floor of Novack.\nThrongs of protesters converged around fellow students who had not joined in their long march. They confronted students who bore \u201csymbols of oppression\u201d: \u201cgangster hats\u201d and Beats-brand headphones. The flood of demonstrators self-consciously overstepped every boundary, opening the doors of study spaces with students reviewing for exams. Those who tried to close their doors were harassed further. One student abandoned the study room and ran out of the library. The protesters followed her out of the library, shouting obscenities the whole way.\nStudents who refused to listen to or join their outbursts were shouted down. \u201cStand the f*** up!\u201d \u201cYou filthy racist white piece of s***!\u201d Men and women alike were pushed and shoved by the group. \u201cIf we can\u2019t have it, shut it down!\u201d they cried. Another woman was pinned to a wall by protesters who unleashed their insults, shouting \u201cfilthy white b****!\u201d in her face.\nThe Dartmouth has a rebuttal article, which claims that,\n\u201cThese allegations of physical assault are lies to make white students look like the victims and students of color to look like the perpetrators,\u201d Abera said. \u201cThe protest was meant to shut down the library. Whatever discomfort that many white students felt in that library is a fraction of the discomfort that many Natives, blacks, Latina and LGBTQ people feel frequently.\u201d \u2026\nMany of the demonstrators then approached the sitting students and chanted \u201cF**k your white privilege\u201d and \u201cF**k your white asses,\u201d demonstrator Dan Korff-Korn \u201919 said.\n\u201cIt was important to point out that the students sitting there in the library at the computers represented this greater degree of ignorance, apathy and privilege that you see at Dartmouth, \u2026\u201d Korff-Korn said. \u2026\nComments such as \u201cF*** your white privilege\u201d were not personal or racist attacks on individual white persons in the library, Diakanwa said. Instead, these comments were meant to target the legacy of white supremacy that many students have benefited from and students of color are fighting against, he said.\nGot that? \u201cFuck your white ass\u201d is not supposed to be a personal or racist attack.\nThe Dartmouth also brings us The Death of Peaceful Protests? about no, not the difficulties of studying at Dartmouth, busy highways being shut down, convenience stores burned down by protestors, a police precinct occupied by protestors, or a man wearing a \u201cStop Killng Black Men\u201d t-shirt getting his head bashed in with a hammer by a \u201cBlack Lives Matter\u201d protester:\n(Also from the article about the guy hit with the hammer:\nSome of the protesters made their way to a freeway in Oakland and blocked traffic. The California Highway Patrol said some tried to light a patrol vehicle on fire and threw rocks, bottles and an explosive at officers. Highway patrol officers responded with tear gas. [source])\nNo, it\u2019s about some dudes in Oregon occupying a building in the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, which, while lovely:\nIs not exactly densely inhabited.\nThe Death of Peaceful Protests? claims that:\nIf the armed men were African-American, they would be called thugs. If they were Muslim, they would be called terrorists. The showdown between the armed protestors and the government illuminates a tremendous hypocrisy. We label violent groups based on the race or religion of their members.\nLook, I am the first person to complain about inconsistent language use, but I\u2019d like to see one credible news source that has called Time Magazine\u2019s #4 Person of the Year \u201cthugs.\u201d I\u2019d like to see a single non-violent (and until violence happens, I\u2019m going to call this non-violent) Muslim take-over of a building in some rural part of the country called a \u201cterrorist\u201d act.\nThe author further argues:\nThe federal government has not been quick to respond due to its experience with right-wing militant groups in Waco and Ruby Ridge in the 1990s. \u2026\nAdditionally, the occupation has exposed the government\u2019s fear of antagonizing right-wing groups. Our nation\u2019s leaders have given such extremists carte blanche. They can act with impunity. If the armed men were African-American or Muslim, the government would have mustered all of its strength to crush the opposition.\u201d\nActually an image of the Obama administration crushing Black Lives Matter protesters. Loretta Lynch is driving the first tank.\nThe government hasn\u2019t been \u201chands off\u201d with the Oregon militia thing because they\u2019re afraid of antagonizing right-wing groups, (goodness knows militias aren\u2019t exactly one of Obama\u2019s core voting demographics,) or because we\u2019ve somehow become more pro-white guys with guns since 1993, but because everyone basically agrees that this:\nBranch Davidian Compound in Flames\nis a really bad way for a standoff to end. From Texas Monthly, The Fire that Time:\nWe found the women and children huddled together, under blankets. There were 27 bodies, two of them pregnant women. They were covered in debris\u2014not just construction debris but spent rounds of grenades and ammunition. I suspect that the blankets were moist, to try and keep out the smoke. But there was such a rip-roaring fire that they were trapped. That was the most profound and distressing aspect of this entire case. To see that mass of human remains was a horrific thing for all of us. \u2026\nMany of the Davidian children\u2019s remains went unclaimed because whole families were dead or their relatives were too poor to pay for funeral services or no one wanted them. And so all those bodies that had been at the coroner\u2019s office were buried, without markers, in paupers\u2019 graves in a Waco cemetery.\nMartin We had to stand behind the caution tape. We watched them bring out coffin after coffin and drop them in the ground. It was a horrible thing.\nNo one really cares about some random building in rural Oregon, even if there are some guys with guns holed up in it.\nIn our final article from The Dartmouth, Educated Action reminds us that young people vote liberal, therefore, be sure to vote, because who could argue with logic like this?\nUseful, scarce, and ownable\nJanuary 26, 2016 January 26, 2016 evolutiontheorist Structures and Civilization\teducation, employment, jobs, labor, neocameralism, NRx, Taino\nTo have value, a thing must be:\nNumber one needs no elaboration.\nNumber two ought to be obvious, but for some reason people fail miserably at it. If the supply of something is infinite\u2013or you operate as though it were\u2013then you have no incentive to preserve it. You may simply keep using and using it. Obviously sunlight is \u201cvaluable\u201d in the sense that you cannot live without it, but how much would you pay for it? Nothing, for it is infinitely available. Would you conserve sunlight? Of course not. But a scuba diver pays for air and conserves it carefully, for air beneath the waves is dear indeed.\nThat which people own, they care for. That which they do not own, they frequently destroy. Compare the state of an owned house to a rental to a squat. These are different kinds of ownership\u2013a renter owns a right to live in a house for a while, though not forever; a squatter may be evicted at any time. A patent lets you develop an idea by guaranteeing you the profits from its sales; an employment contract entitle you to another person\u2019s labor or the products of it.\nWithout ownership, people cannot invest resources. Would you plant crops on a piece of land that might get bulldozed tomorrow to put up an office building? Would you put up an office building if squatters might be allowed to turn it into apartments tomorrow?\nI started thinking about all of this in the context of the Taino, Caribbean Indians who were wiped out by the Spaniards about 500 years ago.\n(Hey, did you know that we are temporally closer to the American Revolution than the American Revolution was to Columbus?)\nThe Spaniards basically treated the Indians like an infinite resource: they\u2019d send them into the fields without food or water and beat them if they stopped working until they dropped dead about 36 hours later. Then they\u2019d send out the next batch of Indians, to work until they fell dead.\nWhen they ran out of Indians, they started importing Africans.\nThe treatment of slaves in Africa look a lot like the treatment of the Taino, except that no one ran out of Africans. At the funeral of King Gezo, King of Dahomey, Africa, \u201chis loving subjects manifested their sorrow by sacrificing eight hundred negroes to his memory.\u201d Efunsetan Aniwura, a Nigerian chieftess, was praised in song:\n\u201cThe woman, who instils fear in others,\nthe fearsome one, who slaughters slaves to celebrate Id-el-Kabir.\nEfunsetan is one force, Ibadan is another.\nThe valiant that challenges the Almighty God,\nif the most high does not answer her on time,\nEfunsetan leaves the earth to go and meet him in Heaven\u2026\u201d\nIt cost money to bring African slaves to the Caribbean, so they were slightly scarcer than in Africa and treated, correspondingly, slightly better. Not a lot better, but better than the Taino.\nGetting worked to death in the fields (or, if you got captured by the Aztecs, getting butchered for dinner), is obviously labor\u2019s worst-case-scenario. This happens when you have:\nNo state to protect you, and\nSkills that are in near infinite supply.\n(Thus also the buffalo and the passenger pigeon.)\nThere is an extremely large supply of humans, whose lives are of infinitely greater value to themselves than to anyone else.\nA functional state protects its people from harm; in return, the people owe the state their allegiance. A state that is not owned is worthless\u2013the German people do not \u201cown\u201d their state any more, because they do not have the right to bar others from it\u2013a people that is not protected by their state will soon be dead. (edited) Skilled workers demand better wages than unskilled ones, because fewer people can do their job. Work a skilled employee to death and you might not find a replacement.\nPerhaps labor\u2019s best-case-scenario is to have one\u2019s educational expenses covered by a corporation (or society itself) in exchange for a number of years of service to that corporation (or society), in order to produce a small number of highly-skilled people who will be able to command high salaries and good living conditions. An exam or other qualification standards to ensure that inferior workers don\u2019t dilute the profession also helps.\nA company cannot afford to invest in training employees if it cannot guarantee a return on its investment\u2013that is, some right of ownership on the employees future labor. Unskilled laborers have little of value to offer on their own in return for education, except the promise of their future labor.\nOnce the debt is paid, the laborer owns his labor, though he may continue his contract with his company if he so desires.\nIn the US, doctors and lawyers have it pretty good\u2013well paid and hardly ever worked to death. Entrance to these professions is tightly restricted\u2013only people who have received legal or medical degrees from accredited colleges and passed an exam on the subject are legally allowed to practice. Individuals bear the cost of their initial educations (usually funded based on the promise of future wages paid back to the banks,) but lawyers and doctors then endure many years of on-the-job training\u2013fellowships and residency for doctors, \u201cassociate\u201d status for lawyers. At the end of this apprenticeship, lawyers hope to become owners of the company\u2013partners\u2013and doctors, attending physicians.\nWages have stagnated in America since the 60s while owners\u2019 share of profits has increased, most likely because the labor market itself has massively increased due to mass immigration and the entry of women into the workforce. One of the great ironies of our modern age is unions advocating for increased immigration.\nPictures from Oceana / Indonesia / Polynesia etc.\nJanuary 25, 2016 January 25, 2016 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tAborigines, architecture, Australia, cannibalism, Indonesia, Maoris, megaliths, Melanesia, Micronesia, migration, navigation, New Zealand, pictures, Polynesia, religion, temples\nLots of megaliths:\nHa\u02bbamonga \u02bba Maui, a stone trilithon on the Tongan island of Tongatapu.\nHa\u02bbamonga \u02bba Maui was built in the early 1200s (the talk page says 1300s); each of its three slabs weighs at least 30-40 tons.\n\u201cBetween about 3000 and 1000 BC speakers of Austronesian languages spread through island South-East Asia \u2013 almost certainly starting out from Taiwan,[1] as tribes whose natives were thought to have previously arrived about from mainland South China about 8000 years ago \u2013 into the edges of western Micronesia and on into Melanesia. \u2026 In the mid-2nd millennium BC a distinctive culture appeared suddenly in north-west Melanesia, in the Bismarck Archipelago, the chain of islands forming a great arch from New Britain to the Admiralty Islands. This culture, known as Lapita, stands out in the Melanesian archeological record, with its large permanent villages on beach terraces along the coasts. \u2026 Within a mere three or four centuries between about 1300 and 900 BC, the Lapita culture spread 6000 km further to the east from the Bismarck Archipelago, until it reached as far as Tonga and Samoa.[2] In this region, the distinctive Polynesian culture developed. The Polynesians are then believed to have spread eastward from the Samoan Islands into the Marquesas, the Society Islands, the Hawaiian Islands and Easter Island; and south to New Zealand. The pattern of settlement also extended to the north of Samoa to the Tuvaluan atolls, with Tuvalu providing a stepping stone to migration into the Polynesian Outlier communities in Melanesia and Micronesia.[3][4][5]\u201d (source) (bold mine)\nAhu Tongariki, Easter Island (source)\nPalindo, a megalith in Lore Lindu National Park, Indonesia\n\u201cVarious archaeological studies have dated the carvings from between 3000 BC to 1300 AD.[4]\u201d\nMegalith being transported on Nias Island, Indonesia, circa 1915\n\u201cThe story has it that it took 525 people three days to erect this stone in the village of Bawemataloeo.

Internally, the road system is in a very bad condition. Externally the air and ferry links are unreliable. There are two ferry terminals (Gunungsitoli and Teluk Dalam) and an airport (Binaka, near G. Sitoli[6]) on the island, serviced mainly from Sibolga and Medan respectively. However, local ferry companies regularly go out of business (or their boats sink), so only one terminal may be active at any given time. Since the 2005 earthquake, transportation has improved to cope with the increase in travel needs for reconstruction and rehabilitation efforts.\u201d\nToraja monolith, Indonesia, circa 1935\nA group of headhunters on the isle of Nias, now part of Indonesia, surrendering to the Dutch\nElsewhere in Indonesia, \u201cRitual cannibalism was well documented among pre-colonial Batak people, being performed in order to strengthen the eater\u2019s tendi.[2] In particular, the blood, heart, palms and soles of the feet were seen as rich in tendi.\u201d\nMarco Polo claims, \u201cThey suffocate him. And when he is dead they have him cooked, and gather together all the dead man\u2019s kin, and eat him. And I assure you they do suck the very bones till not a particle of marrow remains in them\u2026And so they eat him up stump and rump. And when they have thus eaten him they collect his bones and put them in fine chests, and carry them away, and place them in caverns among the mountains where no beast nor other creature can get at them. And you must know also that if they take prisoner a man of another country, and he cannot pay a ransom in coin, they kill him and eat him straightway.[7]\u201d\nThere\u2019s some debate on just how much cannibalism the Batak were engaged in. \u201cSir Thomas Stamford Raffles in the 1820s studied the Batak and their rituals and laws regarding the consumption of human flesh\u2026 Raffles stated that \u201cIt is usual for the people to eat their parents when too old to work,\u201d and that for certain crimes a criminal would be eaten alive: \u201cThe flesh is eaten raw or grilled, with lime, salt and a little rice.\u201d[11]\u201d\nBut, \u201cGerman physician and geographer Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn visited the Batak lands in 1840-41. Junghuhn says about cannibalism among the Batak (whom he called \u201cBattaer\u201d):\n\u201cPeople do the honest Battaer an injustice when it is said that they sell human flesh in the markets, and that they slaughter their old people as soon as they are unfit for work\u2026They eat human flesh only in wartime, when they are enraged, and in a few legal instances.\u201d \u201c\n\u201cOscar von Kessel visited Silindung in the 1840s and in 1844 was probably the first European to observe a Batak cannibalistic ritual in which a convicted adulterer was eaten alive. \u2026 von Kessel states that cannibalism was regarded by the Batak as a judicial act and its application was restricted to very narrowly defined infringements of the law including theft, adultery, spying or treason. Salt, red pepper and lemons had to be provided by the relatives of the victim as a sign that they accepted the verdict of the community and were not thinking of revenge.[14]\u201d\n\u201cPrisoners of war are tied to a tree and beheaded at once; but the blood is carefully preserved for drinking, and sometimes made into a kind of pudding with boiled rice. The body is then distributed; the ears, the nose, and the soles of the feet are the exclusive property of the Rajah, who has besides a claim on other portions. The palms of the hands, the soles of the feet, the flesh of the head, and the heart and liver, are reckoned peculiar delicacies, and the flesh in general is roasted and eaten with salt. The Regents assured me, with a certain air of relish, that it was very good food, and that they had not the least objection to eat it. The women are not allowed to take part in these grand public dinners.\u201d[15]\n\u201cSamuel Munson and Henry Lyman, American Baptist missionaries to the Batak, were cannibalized in 1834. \u2026 In 1890 the Dutch colonial government banned cannibalism in the regions under their control.[18] Rumors of Batak cannibalism survived into the early 20th century but it seems probable that the custom was rare after 1816, due partially to the influence of Islam.[19]\u201d\nDebating exactly how much cannibalism was going on seems to miss the big picture.\nTraditional house, Nias\nFunerary Monoliths, Toraja\n\u201cEach monolith here memorializes a particular deceased person, although \u2013 since the standing stones are neither carved nor signed \u2013 the person\u2019s name may be soon forgotten. The buildings in the background, at the base of the hill, were erected as temporary pavilions for the funeral celebrations; they may eventually be reused here, disassembled and re-erected nearby, kept up for tourist visits, or left to deteriorate, depending on local condition.\u201d (source)\nCarved stone burial site, with effigies of the deceased, Toraja\n\u201cIn Toraja society, the funeral ritual is the most elaborate and expensive event. \u2026 The death feast of a nobleman is usually attended by thousands and lasts for several days. \u2026 The ceremony is often held weeks, months, or years after the death so that the deceased\u2019s family can raise the significant funds needed to cover funeral expenses. \u2026 During the waiting period, the body of the deceased is wrapped in several layers of cloth and kept under the tongkonan. \u2026\n\u201cSlaughtering tens of water buffalo and hundreds of pigs using a machete is the climax of the elaborate death feast, with dancing and music and young boys who catch spurting blood in long bamboo tubes. \u2026 As with the sacrifice of the buffalo and the pigs, the cockfight is considered sacred because it involves the spilling of blood on the earth. \u2026 it is common for at least 25 pairs of chickens to be set against each other in the context of the ceremony.\n\u201c\u2026 The wealthy are often buried in a stone grave carved out of a rocky cliff. The grave is usually expensive and takes a few months to complete. In some areas, a stone cave may be found that is large enough to accommodate a whole family. A wood-carved effigy, called Tau tau, is usually placed in the cave looking out over the land.[30] The coffin of a baby or child may be hung from ropes on a cliff face or from a tree. This hanging grave usually lasts for years, until the ropes rot and the coffin falls to the ground.\n\u201cIn the ritual called Ma\u2019Nene, that takes place each year in August, the bodies of the deceased are exhumed to be washed, groomed and dressed in new clothes.[31] The mummies are then walked around the village.[32]\u201d\nTraditional house, Toraja, Indonesia\nIndonesia has some nice looking temples, called Candi:\n8th century Sewu Temple compound, Indonesia\nBorobudur Temple, 9th century\nMap showing the locations of candis built during the Indonesian Classical Period\nPrambanan complex, 9th century\nPunden berundak, traditional megalithic monument of Indonesia\n10th century candi, photo by Dany13\nAs far as I can gather\u2013though this is somewhat iffy because some of the sources sounded speculative and some of them that seemed better weren\u2019t in English, and I couldn\u2019t figure out what language they were in in order to translate them, but anyway\u2013Indonesia has an ancient tradition of building \u201cstep pyramids\u201d out of rocks, which morphed over time into building these big candi stupas, with some Hindu and Buddhist influence along the way.\nI haven\u2019t found many good pics of the ancient sites; one supposed ancient site appears to be a bunch of naturally-occurring basalt that people might have moved around, but the Wikipedia page on it sounded so questionable, I opted not to include it.

The Micronesian culture was one of the last native cultures of the region to develop. It developed from a mixture of Melanesians, Polynesians, and Filipinos. Because of this mixture of descent, many of the ethnicities of Micronesia feel closer to some groups in Melanesia, Polynesia or the Philippines. A good example of this are the Yapese who are related to Austronesian tribes in the Northern Philippines.[25] A 2011 survey found that 93.1% of Micronesian are Christians.[26]\u201d (source)\nSpeaking of Micronesia:\nCastle Bravo blast, Bikini Atoll, Micronesia\n\u201cThe islands of Bokonijien, Aerokojlol, and Nam were vaporized during nuclear tests that occurred there.\u201d\nEconomy: \u201cAdditional money comes in from government grants, mostly from the United States, and the $150 million the US paid into a trust fund for reparations of residents of Bikini Atoll that had to move after nuclear testing.\u201d\nApparently the radiation fallout affected some nearby islands, where a bunch of people got radiation poisoning and had to move.

Their home atoll is almost a 1000-mile round trip to the nearest point of immigration check-in and check-out. There are no regular flights. The only way to legally visit is to first check-in, travel on a high-speed sailboat to the atoll, and then backtrack almost 500 miles. Owing to this difficulty, only a handful of the few sailors that travel across the Pacific will attempt to visit.\u201d\nTechnically, both Bhutan and North Sentinel Island sound harder to get to (and North Korea?) but point taken.\nI was wondering if Indonesians knew about Australia (it seems like they would have,) and it turns out that at least some of them did: \u201cFishing fleets began to visit the northern coasts of Australia from Makassar (formerly Ujung Pandang) in southern Sulawesi, from about 1720, but possibly earlier. While Campbell Macknight\u2019s classic study of the Makassan trepang industry accepts the start of the industry as about 1720, with the earliest recorded trepang voyage made in 1751,[5] Regina Ganter of Griffith University notes a Sulawesi historian who suggests a commencement date for the industry of about 1640.[6] Ganter also notes that for some anthropologists, the extensive impact of the trepang industry on the Yolngu people suggests a longer period of contact. Arnhem land rock art, recorded by archaeologists in 2008, appears to provide further evidence of Makassan contact in the mid-1600s.[7]\u201d\nLuritja man, Australia, demonstrating a method of attacking with a boomerang (1920).\nPrehistoric Australia is known primarily for its nomadic hunter-gatherers, but they did build some permanent or semi-permanent stone houses and other structures, eg:\nRemains of 1,700 year old Aboriginal stone house, Lake Condah Ruins\nLake Condah Ruins Of Ancient Aboriginal Engineering Drainage Works\nMore about the Lake Condah stone houses.\nThe website Trans-Pacific Project wonders if Polynesians made contact (and trade) with the Americas:\nDon\u2019t forget possible Melanesian DNA in the middle of the Brazilian rainforest.\nRai stone, used as currency on the island of Yap\nHawaiian multi-hulled boat\n\u201cOn his first voyage of Pacific exploration Cook had the services of a Polynesian navigator, Tupaia, who drew a hand-drawn Chart of the islands within 2,000 miles (3,200 km) radius (to the north and west) of his home island of Ra\u2019iatea. Tupaia had knowledge of 130 islands and named 74 on his Chart.[47] Tupaia had navigated from Ra\u2019iatea in short voyages to 13 islands. He had not visited western Polynesia, as since his grandfather\u2019s time the extent of voyaging by Raiateans has diminished to the islands of eastern Polynesia. His grandfather and father had passed to Tupaia the knowledge as to the location of the major islands of western Polynesia and the navigation information necessary to voyage to Fiji, Samoa and Tonga.\u201d (source)\n\u201cThe Samoan Crisis was a confrontation standoff between the United States, Imperial Germany and Great Britain from 1887\u20131889 over control of the Samoan Islands during the Samoan Civil War. The incident involved three American warships, USS Vandalia, USS Trenton and USS Nipsic and three German warships, SMS Adler, SMS Olga, and SMS Eber, keeping each other at bay over several months in Apia harbour, which was monitored by the British warship HMS Calliope.\n\u201cThe standoff ended on 15 and 16 March when a cyclone wrecked all six warships in the harbour.\u201d (source)\nRatu Tanoa Visawaqa, Fijian chieftan\nFijian mountain warrior\n\u201cPottery art from Fijian towns shows that Fiji was settled before or around 3500 to 1000 BC, although the question of Pacific migration still lingers.

Also, when a new boat, or drua, was launched, if it was not hauled over men as rollers, crushing them to death, \u201cit would not be expected to float long\u201d (Scarr, page 19). Fijians today regard those times as \u201cna gauna ni tevoro\u201d (time of the devil). The ferocity of the cannibal lifestyle deterred European sailors from going near Fijian waters, giving Fiji the name Cannibal Isles; as a result, Fiji remained unknown to the rest of the world.[24]\u201d\nRemember, folks, whites are the most evil people to ever walk the face of the earth, and indigenous native peoples were all peaceful, non-violent matriarchists:\nLink to the original article (warning, it is on Salon.)\n\u201cThe future of life on the planet depends on bringing the 500-year rampage of the white man to a halt. For five centuries his ever more destructive weaponry has become far too common. His widespread and better systems of exploiting other humans and nature dominate the globe. The time for replacing white supremacy with new values is now.\u201d\nWhat kind of non-white values ? Cannibalism? Burkas? Living without white technology like vaccines, antibiotics, and telephones?\n\u201cAnd just as some whites played a part in ending slavery, colonialism, Jim Crow segregation, and South African apartheid, there is surely a role whites can play in restraining other whites in this era.\u201d\nLOL what? Who, exactly, fought and died in the Civil War? A bunch of white people, you ass. Who put a stop to the slave trade in Africa? The English. (and probably the French, Dutch, etc.) Who stopped cannibalism throughout the world? Americans, Dutch, English, French, and missionaries from the world\u2019s great religions\u2013Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. (The influence of the last three on the bulk of Indonesia seems obvious enough.) Whites don\u2019t have a monopoly on greatness, but the claim that whites have done nothing for the planet is not only ignorant bullshit, but displays a profound ignorance of and refusal to learn about the histories and cultures of the entire non-white part of the world.\nNormally, SJWs might deem spouting astonishingly ignorant nonsense about non-whites \u201cracist,\u201d but so long as your ignorance is being used to attack whites, then obviously everything is peachy keen and you\u2019re worthy of publication on a major liberal website.\nThe sunken continent of Zealandia\n\u201cPre-European M\u0101ori had no distance weapons except for tao (spears)[14] and the introduction of the musket had an enormous impact on M\u0101ori warfare. Tribes with muskets would attack tribes without them, killing or enslaving many.[15] As a result, guns became very valuable and M\u0101ori would trade huge quantities of goods for a single musket. From 1805 to 1843 the Musket Wars raged until a new balance of power was achieved after most tribes had acquired muskets. In 1835, the peaceful Moriori of the Chatham Islands were attacked, enslaved, and nearly exterminated by mainland Ng\u0101ti Mutunga and Ng\u0101ti Tama M\u0101ori.[16] In the 1901 census, only 35 Moriori were recorded although the numbers subsequently increased.\u201d (source)\n\u201cDuring the Musket wars, it has been estimated that the total number of the M\u0101ori population dropped from about 100,000 in 1800 to between 50,000 and 80,000 at the end of the wars in 1843. The 1856\u20131857 census of M\u0101ori, which gives a figure of 56,049, suggests the lower number of around 50,000 is perhaps more accurate. \u2026 the Maori suffered high mortality rates for new Eurasian infectious diseases, such as influenza, smallpox and measles, which killed an unknown number of M\u0101ori: estimates vary between ten and fifty percent.\u201d (source)\nModel of fortified Maori town\n\u201cInitial contact between M\u0101ori and Europeans proved problematic, sometimes fatal, with several accounts of Europeans being cannibalised.[35] \u2026 In the Boyd Massacre in 1809, M\u0101ori took hostage and killed 66 members of the crew and passengers in apparent revenge for the captain\u2019s whipping the son of a M\u0101ori chief. Given accounts of cannibalism in this attack, shipping companies and missionaries kept a distance and significantly reduced contact with the M\u0101ori for several years.\u201d (source)\nTraditional tattoos on a Filipino man, Bontoc people (why is \u201cFilipino\u201d spelled with an F?)\n\u201cThe realm of legend suggests that Ui-te-Rangiora around the year 650, led a fleet of Waka T\u012bwai south until they reached, \u201ca place of bitter cold where rock-like structures rose from a solid sea\u201d,[21] The brief description appears to match the Ross Ice Shelf or possibly the Antarctic mainland,[22] but may just be a description of icebergs and Pack Ice found in the Southern Ocean[23][24]\u201d\n\u201cPolynesian navigators employed a whole range of techniques including use of the stars, the movement of ocean currents and wave patterns, the air and sea interference patterns caused by islands and atolls, the flight of birds, the winds and the weather.[32]\n\u201cHarold Gatty suggested that long-distance Polynesian voyaging followed the seasonal paths of bird migrations. There are some references in their oral traditions to the flight of birds and some say that there were range marks onshore pointing to distant islands in line with the West Pacific Flyway. A voyage from Tahiti, the Tuamotus or the Cook Islands to New Zealand might have followed the migration of the long-tailed cuckoo (Eudynamys taitensis) just as the voyage from Tahiti to Hawai\u02bbi would coincide with the track of the Pacific golden plover (Pluvialis fulva) and the bristle-thighed curlew (Numenius tahitiensis). It is also believed that Polynesians employed shore-sighting birds as did many seafaring peoples. One theory is that they would have taken a frigatebird (Fregata) with them. These birds refuse to land on the water as their feathers will become waterlogged making it impossible to fly. When the voyagers thought they were close to land they may have released the bird, which would either fly towards land or else return to the canoe.\n\u201cFor navigators near the equator celestial navigation is simplified since the whole celestial sphere is exposed. Any star that passes the zenith (overhead) is on the celestial equator, the basis of the equatorial coordinate system. The stars are known by their declination, and when they rise or set they determine a bearing for navigation. For example, in the Caroline Islands Mau Piailug taught natural navigation using a star compass. The development of \u201csidereal compasses\u201d has been studied[33] and theorized to have developed from an ancient pelorus.[32]\n\u201cIt is likely that the Polynesians also used wave and swell formations to navigate. Many of the habitable areas of the Pacific Ocean are groups of islands (or atolls) in chains hundreds of kilometers long. Island chains have predictable effects on waves and on currents. Navigators who lived within a group of islands would learn the effect various islands had on their shape, direction, and motion and would have been able to correct their path in accordance with the changes they perceived. When they arrived in the vicinity of a chain of islands they were unfamiliar with, they may have been able to transfer their experience and deduce that they were nearing a group of islands. Once they had arrived fairly close to a destination island, they would have been able to pinpoint its location by sightings of land-based birds, certain cloud formations, as well as the reflections shallow water made on the undersides of clouds. It is thought that the Polynesian navigators may have measured the time it took to sail between islands in \u201ccanoe-days\u201d or a similar type of expression.[32]\u201d\n\u201cThe first settlers of the Hawaiian Islands are thought to have sailed from the Marquesas Islands using Polynesian navigation methods.[34] To test this theory, the Hawaiian Polynesian Voyaging Society was established in 1973. The group built a replica of an ancient double-hulled canoe called the H\u014dk\u016ble\u2018a, whose crew successfully navigated the Pacific Ocean from Hawai\u02bbi to Tahiti in 1976 without instruments. In 1980, a Hawaiian named Nainoa Thompson invented a new method of non instrument navigation (called the \u201cmodern Hawaiian wayfinding system\u201d), enabling him to complete the voyage from Hawai\u02bbi to Tahiti and back. In 1987, a M\u0101ori named Matahi Whakataka (Greg Brightwell) and his mentor Francis Cowan sailed from Tahiti to Aotearoa without instruments.\u201d (source)\nKabloona Friday\nJanuary 22, 2016 November 23, 2015 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tanthropology, culture, Eskimo, ethnography, Inuit, Kabloona, suicide\nI finished Kabloona, though I still have a few excerpts for you guys.\nDe Poncins does eventually discover that he feels warmer after eating the Eskimo\u2019s food than after eating bread. It is really a pity that all those guys who died of scurvy on their ways to the poles did not know that.\nOh, and I think I may have figured out the mystery of why arctic peoples don\u2019t have fur. De Poncins describes in one passage how his beard (which he could not shave while on the trail,) had become laden with ice in the -50 degree weather, and periodically the ice would crack and a chunk of beard would get ripped out of his face.\nPolar bears handle fur just fine, but their noses jut out much further than ours; our exhalation goes directly down our faces.\nAdditionally, one of the constant concerns in the arctic is keeping properly dry. You get snowy, you go indoors to warm up, the snow melts, now you\u2019re wet. Head back outside, and the wet freezes.\nBare skin probably dries faster than fur.\nAnyway, back to our quotes:\nA group of Eskimos were sitting in an igloo. Night had fallen, and they sat laughing and smoking after a good day of sealing. \u2026 the idea of a coming feast excited the men, and the pitch of their conversation rose and became playfully crude. At that moment the word was spoken. Not an insulting word, not a direct slap, but a word mockingly flung forth and therefore more painful, a word that made a man lose face before the others, that crippled him if he had no retort. One of the younger men had spoken. Encouraged by the laughter of the rest he hand gone further than he intended. Planted before an older man, who was lying back on the iglerk, [sofa made of snow] he said to him scornfully, \u201cWhen you don\u2019t miss a seal, you certainly strike him square. If we were all as accurate as you are, the clan would have to get along without eating.\u201d\nThe old man\u2019s blood rushed to his face, but except for a single flash of the eyes he remained impassive. He sat still, unable to reply. \u2026 He got up after a moment and slipped out of the igloo. His igloo. This made it more unbearable. \u2026\nHe strode to the other end of the camp, and crawled into Akyak\u2019s igloo. There, without a word, he sat down. Akyak was alone. She looked at him and wondered what the old man was doing in her igloo when he had guests at home. But she asked no questions. Causally, she picked up the teapot and poured him out a mug of tea. He drank it at a gulp, and then said suddenly:\n\u201cInut-koak\u201c\u2013\u201cI am an old man.\u201d\nAstonished, Akyak protested vaguely; but he was not listening. Already he was on his way out. \u2026\nThe old man went sealing with the rest. But those words gnawed at him unbearably. \u2026 Bowed over his hole in the ice, he brooded. If he had been able to kill several seals in a row, he would have resumed his place as the great hunter of the clan, and it would have been his privilege to speak mockingly to the younger man. But fate was against him. He missed seal after seal. \u2026\nThe day came when he would no longer sit with the rest in another Eskimo\u2019s igloo. While they laughed and feasted, he remained at home, motionless on his iglerk, eyes shut, arms hanging loose, like a sick doll. He had stopped going with the others out on the ice. He was beginning to mutter to himself. He was forgetting to eat. His dogs would howl, and he would not so much as go out of doors to beat them.\n\u2026Still, the other would come to see him, whether out of curiosity or malice it is hard to say. They would find him sitting at his end of the iglerk, saying over and over to himself:\nSome would try to cheer him up.\n\u201cCom, come!\u201d they would say. \u201cYou have the best wife in the camp. There\u2019s nobody like you with a woman.\u201d\n\u201cInut-koak!\u201d he would repeat obstinately.\n\u2026He was not thinking, but brooding\u2026 There was only one way to be rid of it, and that was death. But whose death? His, or the young man\u2019s?\nIt was going to be his, and he knew it. He was too old to kill. The thought invaded him, took possession of him, and as he never struggled against it, it undermined him. \u2026\nOne day he made up his mind. It was evening, his family were there, and the old man spoke.\n\u201cPrepare the rope,\u201d he said to his wife.\nNobody stirred. They were all like this, and it was true of all of them that once an Eskimo had made up his mind there was no dissuading him from his decision. Not a word was said. The dutiful wife came forward with a rope made of seal. A noose made in it never slips. \u2026\nIn the igloo the old man fashioned a running noose. With a single jerk the thing was done. Seated on the edge of the iglerk, his face bent down to the ground, he had strangled himself, and his body lay slack. No one would touch it. they would leave it as it was, and strike camp to escape the evil spirit that had possessed this man. The next day they were gone and the igloos stood empty in the white expanse.\nIt was not that they did not care enough to stop him, but that they did not wish to impose upon his freedom to do as he wished.\nGoing into the other igloo on the second day, I found on the ground a doll. It was a thing that might have been made not only for a child, but by a child\u2013shapeless, covered in caribou hide, shining with fat like the Eskimos themselves, and pigeon-toed as their women invariably are. Tufts of musk-ox fur had been stuck either side of the head to simulate human hair. The thing had no form, was crude, wretched, yet how expressive it was! \u2026 It filled me with pity, and with admiration, too, for if it spoke of wretched poverty, it spoke no less of stoicisim. \u2026\nOn the spot I gave two plugs of tobacco for the doll, and instantly I became the idiot white man. For a bit of hide that the child would no longer play with, I had given two plugs of tobacco. I had hardly left them before they began hastily to manufacture bright new dolls, dressed in new skins. Surely the Kabloona would pay five or six plugs for the new dolls! They were in Algunerk\u2019s igloo the next day before I was out of my sleeping-bag, and when, in triumph, they held up the new dolls, and I wrinkled my nose (the Eskimo sign for \u201cno\u201d), they grumbled angrily and withdrew, convinced now that the white man was surely mad.\nAfter a very long journey, de Poncins finally managed to meet Father Henry:\nI am going to say to you that a human being can live without complaint in an ice-house built for seals at a temperature of fifty-five degrees below zero, and you are going to doubt my word. Yet what I say is true, for this was how Father Henry lived; and when I say, \u201cice house for seals,\u201d I am not using metaphorical language. \u2026 An Eskimo would not have lived in this hole. An igloo is a thousand times warmer, especially one built out on the sea over the water, warm beneath the coat of ice. I asked Father Henry why he lived thus. He said merely that it was more convenient, and pushed me ahead of him into his cavern. \u2026\nCompared with this hole, an igloo was a palace. From the door to the couch opposite measured four and one half feet. Two people could not stand comfortably here, and when Father Henry said Mass I used to kneel on the couch. \u201cIf you didn\u2019t, you would be in my way,\u201d was how he put it. \u2026 The couch was a rickety wooden surface supported in the middle by a strut, over which two caribou hides had been spread. On these three plank forming a slightly titled surface, Father Henry slept. \u2026\nFather Henry and I took to each other from the beignning. A seal ice-house bring people together moe quickly than a hotel room, and a good deal more intimately. Convesation in such a place is frank and honest, untrammelled by the reticences of society.\n\u201cI said to him one day:\u201dDon\u2019t you fidn this life too hard for you, living aline like this?\u201d\n\u201cOh, no,\u201d he said; \u201cI am really very happy here. my life is simple, iI have no wories, I have everything I need.\u201d (He had nothing at all!) \u201cOnly ne thing preys on my mind now and then\u201d it is\u2013what will become of me when I am old?\u201d\nHe said this with such an air of confessing a secret weakness that my heart swelled with sudden emotion, and I tried clumsily to comfort him.\n\u201cWhen you are old,\u201d I said, \u201cyou will go back among the white men. You will be given a mission at Chesterfield, or at Churchill.\u201d\n\u201cNo, no, no!\u201d he protested, \u201cnot that.\u201d\nFrom a conversation reported to our author about himself:\n\u201cDoes he speak Eskimo?\u201d\nAt this point, Father Henry said to me: \u201cObserve the delicacy of these men. He might have said, \u2018badly.\u2019 Instead, in order not to hurt anyone, he said, \u2018All that he has said to us, we have clearly understood\u2019\nDe Poncins has managed to reach a group of Eskimo with almost no contact with the outside world:\nAs we moved from camp to camp, I was surprised everywhere by the spaciousness, I might almost have said the magnificence, of these igloos Their porches were invariably built to contain two good-sized niches, one for the dogs, the other for harness and equipment. In some camps I found again the communal architecture of which I had seen a deserted specimen on the trial\u2013three igloos so built as to open into a central lobby. Each igloo housed two families, one at either side of the porch, and was lighted by two seal-oil lamps. I measured them and found they were twelve feet in diameter\u2013so wide at the axis that the iglerk, which in the King William Land igloo fills three quarters of the interior, took up less than half the floor space. The seal-oil lamps, or more properly, vessels, were nearly three feet long. All this luxury was explained by the presence of seal in quantity, whereas round King, seal is, to say the least, not plentiful.\nBack of each lamp, on a sort of platform of snow, lay the usual larder of the Eskimo rich in provisions, into which every visitor was free to put his knife and draw forth the chunk of seal or caribou or musk-ox that he preferred. \u2026\nWhat I was seeing here, few men had seen, and it was now to be seen almost nowhere else\u2013a social existence a in olden days, a degree of prosperity and well-being contrasting markedly with the psueduo-civilized life of the western Eskimo and the pitiful, stunted, whining life of the King William clan with its wretched poverty , its tents made of coal-sacks, its snuffling, lackluster, and characterless men clad in rags\u2019 that life like a dulled and smutted painting with only here and there a gleam to speak of what it had once been.\nI figure one of the reasons anthropology has changed so much is that today, there\u2019s a good chance your subjects will read your book, so you might not want to refer to your informants as pitiful, stunted, and whining.\nNew Zealand: where prehistoric migrations and historic migrations meet\nJanuary 21, 2016 December 22, 2015 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tAustralia, Austronesia, Indonesia, Melanesia, Micronesia, migration, navigation, New Zealand, Oceana, Pacific Ocean, Polynesia\n\u2026 There were, however, some societies, like those in the Pacific, which developed in extreme geographical isolation, since less than one percent of the Pacific is land. For hundreds of years, the Pacific sat apart from the major trade routes and so the cross-fertilization of naviational ideas was limited. One result of this was that the unique navigation methods that were developed in the Pacific remain distinct and different to this day. \u2013Tristan Gooley, The Natural Navigator\nThe Pacific is also the last (major) region of Earth to be settled. We figured out how to survive on the polar sea ice thousands of years before we figured out long-distance ocean navigation. Humans didn\u2019t arrive in New Zealand until sometime around 1250-1300 AD, (which means they got to Hawaii and Easter Island\u2013one of the mot geographically isolated places in the world\u2013before New Zealand.) Or to put it another way, less time passed between the Maori settling New Zealand and Columbus arriving Cuba than between Columbus and the American Revolution. (This is even more remarkable when you consider that humans arrived in Australia 40-50,000 years ago.)\nThe short version of all of this, as we\u2019ve been discussing, is that the Melanesians (who, as their name indicates, have a lot of melanin,) spread out along the southern coast of Asia following the Out-of-Africa event, settling in the Andaman Islands, modern Indonesia, PNG, and eventually Australia.\nAfter that, they basically stopped. The distances between their islands and the next islands were too great for Melanesian technology, and the islands they had were probably pretty nice compared to taking their chances out in the open waves just to hope they might make landfall on some tiny speck hundreds or thousands of miles away.\nAbout 32,000 years later, a group of Taiwanese folks (probably also descended from Melanesians,) developed some better boats and navigational technologies and set out to discover the Pacific.\nMicronesian \u201cstick chart\u201d for mapping ocean swells and currents (National Geographic)\n(Interestingly, they also went in the opposite direction, across the Indian ocean, and settled in Madagascar.) The Polynesians who eventually landed in New Zealand are among their descendants.\nGetting to Indonesia does not seem to have posed much of a problem for ancient man, since Homo Erectus got there even before h. Sapiens, a good 1.5 million years ago. Lower sea levels probably made this easier than it would be today, by linking up a lot of the islands to the mainland.\n(I believe Indonesia is actually located on a sinking magmatic \u201ccool spot\u201d that is essentially drawing the whole region downward, leaving only the tips of its mountains above water; southern Africa is located over a rising magmatic warm spot, lifting the crust in that area.) But the movements of large chunks of crust across the mantle are beyond our temporal scope; we just want to know what Indonesia, PNG, and Australia looked like during the Ice Ages:\nIndonesia and Australia during the Ice Age\nThis still requires boats to cross, but it\u2019s not too complicated a voyage. New Zealand, though, is right out. You\u2019re not getting to New Zealand this way\u2013the ocean currents are against you. I suspect it\u2019s easier to get to NZ from the middle of the Pacific\u2013as people actually did\u2013than from Australia.\nMy hatred of English class\nJanuary 20, 2016 December 22, 2015 evolutiontheorist Miscellaneous\tEnglish class, Iliad, rants\nSo I was reading the Iliad yesterday, (for the simple reason that I like the Iliad,) laughing over the section in book I where Hera and Zeus are bickering, and I thought, \u201cI am so glad I have never had to write an English paper on this.\u201d I am perfectly happy discussing a book, writing a review that I hope will help someone else decide if they want to read the book, or highlighting things that I think are particularly interesting about a book. But I hate English papers. You know what they say about explaining a joke; being forced to spend multiple pages explaining why I think Homer intends us to find the passage amusing kills the whole experience. (And then getting a curt note from the teacher to the effect that this is really not what she was looking for just adds insult to injury.) No one but my Greek prof ever wanted to hear that great literature was supposed to be funny.\nObviously my ability to read and write English lies somewhere above average but below extraordinary; sufficient, you might think, for the average English class.\nI did not do well in English. Average, not well. I spent most of English class wondering why we had to destroy such nice books by writing such god-awful papers about them. No, I do not care about the symbolism of the color green in Jane Eyre; I do not care about the grand themes in the Scarlet Letter. There has always been a judgment rolled up in this, an indication that the way I experience and internalize and interpret novels is somehow incorrect, and the teacher\u2019s version is the correct way to do it.\nWhile there are better and worse ways to teach math, I accept that the math I did in highschool and college was \u201creal math,\u201d and that anyone faced with calculating when a plane going 500 miles an hour will get to Detroit will do much the same calculation as I did. To the extend that I use math in my adult life, it is generally performed exactly like I was taught to do it, or else I can figure it out based on what I have already learned.\nBut my adult understanding and use of English (and literature) has nothing at all to do with anything we were taught back in highschool English.\nIs Southern Hospitality a Myth?\nJanuary 19, 2016 January 22, 2016 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tculture, hierarchy, hospitality, Southern Hospitality, the North, the South\nIt\u2019s tough coming up with a more solidly Southern lineage than mine\u2013General Sherman\u2019s troops literally burned down my great-great-great grandparent\u2019s farm\u2013and yet, I don\u2019t actually know what \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d is. This may just be a quirk of the people who raised me, who perhaps simply forgot to explain it to me, expecting me to pick up cultural values via osmosis instead.\nAt any rate, I started thinking more about Southern Hospitality after conversations with two friends\u2013one a Southerner who has moved to Yankeedom, and the other a non-Southerner who recently sojourned through the South. The Southerner reports that the Yanks are rude, unfriendly, and decidedly lacking in Southern Hospitality. The non-Southerner reports that the Southerners they encountered were rude, unfriendly, and really not hospitable at all. Intrigued, I went searching online and discovered many similar accounts. Southerners swear up and down that \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d is real and Northerners are rude; Northerners swear up and down that Southerners are fake-friendly, un-hospitable, and aggressive.\nWhen faced with a conundrum like this, I find it useful to assume that both sides are truthfully reporting their impressions, at least as far as humans can, and then find a theory that fits both. In this case, obvious things that come to mind:\nDifferent cultures define \u201chospitality\u201d differently, and your own culture, of course, is the one doing it right\nPeople don\u2019t generally notice whether or not they are being hospitable to others, but they notice right away if people aren\u2019t being hospitable to them, and this tends to only come up while traveling\nSome people or places in the South are more hospitable than others\nSoutherners are more hospitable to some people than others\nThe Wikipedia has a hopefully helpful page on \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201c:\nSouthern hospitality is a phrase used in American English to describe the stereotype of residents of the Southern United States as particularly warm, sweet, and welcoming to visitors to their homes, or to the South in general.\nWell, that wasn\u2019t my experience growing up in the South. I found my classmates generally hostile and aggressive, and I don\u2019t even know the names of the people who lived next door to us because they never said hello.\nI have traveled (albeit quickly) through much of the country, including the South. From that perspective, few states really stand out (not counting geography,) except for Mississippi. No one smiled at us in the entire state of Mississippi. The one time random strangers stopped to help me out, I was in New England.\nThe friend who recently traveled through the South reported unfriendliness from strangers, lack of smiling, people staring at them, hostility, etc.\nThe Wikipedia quotes a very different perspective, from Jacob Abbott (1835):\n[T]he hospitality of southerners is so profuse, that taverns are but poorly supported. A traveler, with the garb and the manners of a gentleman, finds a welcome at every door.\nThis reminds me of Soviet propaganda trying to convince people that American grocery stores had so much food because Americans couldn\u2019t afford to buy food, and that Soviet grocery stores were empty because Soviet citizens were buying up all of the food.\nAs far as I know, the South was more sparsely populated than the North, especially before the advent of air conditioning, the full eradication of malaria, and anti-hookworm campaigns, and the like. The economy hasn\u2019t been all that robust, either. Few well-off travelers in a sparsely populated area => not many inns, so a social norm of local hospitality for travelers may, without which any travel would be quite difficult, may have been the most sensible outcome. We see this in other areas where people must depend on each other due to lack or uncertainty of local resources\u2013the Eskimo were traditionally so hospitable, a traveler might even enjoy the loan of a man\u2019s wife for an evening. Muslims also pride themselves on hospitality; a friend who has traveled extensively in Muslim countries claims that folks there are extremely friendly and hospitable, (except for that unfortunate time terrorists blew up his hotel. And afterwards, the rescue workers were extremely apologetic and embarrassed that such a bad thing could happen to a guest in their country.)\nI suspect that the desert, like the arctic, is particularly fraught with dangers and scarce of people, and so cultural norms popped up about helping strangers.\nAnd [Abraham] lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, and said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.\nAnd Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth. And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it. And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat. (Genesis 18:2-8)\nOf course, directly after this story, these same visitors went to the city of Sodom, where they were treated most inhospitably by the mob. So Sodom, for its poor treatment of guests, was wiped from the map, while Abraham\u2019s wife conceived her first child and he became father of a nation.\nThe most common defense I have seen of Southern hospitality is that it is a waning norm, not found in all areas of the South, and more common in the countryside than the city. This is a very reasonable defense (and would explain why I didn\u2019t encounter it.) Cities are a relative novelty in the South, and have a lot of recently arrived migrants from other parts of the country, (who are therefore not culturally Southern,) and cities generally aren\u2019t great places to be hospitable, just because they have too many people and too much crime.\nCome to think of it, \u201cstranger danger\u201d was a big deal when I was a kid, so not only was I not raised to be hospitable to strangers, I was told that strangers would rape and murder you and to run away screaming if anyone tried to talk to me. Sure, it sounds paranoid now, but when I was little they found a dead kid in the dumpster at my apartment complex, so I think my parents were really doing the best they could.\nGetting back to Jacob Abbott, note that he specifies that the traveler is a gentleman. He does not tell us what reception a black man or a poor farmer would receive. Southern society has traditionally been more hierarchical than Northern society, not just in the form of rigidly enforced class distinctions between aristocratic whites, poor whites, and blacks, but also in the relations between strangers and of children to their relatives.\nMany Southerners, for example, report believing that children should not call relatives by their proper names, but by their familial position\u2013eg, \u201cGrandpa\u201d instead of \u201cGrandpa Joe\u201d or just \u201cJoe.\u201d It is my impression that most children do this, but here the justification is that it is improper for children to use adults\u2019 names. When my dad talks to me about something my mom has done, he doesn\u2019t use her name, he calls her \u201cmom,\u201d because this is the only name I am supposed to call her by. I actually don\u2019t know the names of some of my relatives because no one uses them with me.\n(I know some Northerners who call their family members simply by their names, but I don\u2019t know if that is a common thing in the North.)\nWithin this code of formality and class distinction, whether a Southerner calls someone \u201cSir\u201d or \u201cJohn\u201d or \u201cMr. Smith\u201d may (I am speculating) have great meaning, even if it means nothing at all to an outsider unfamiliar with the social norms. So a Southerner might in fact be acting \u201chospitably\u201d in their mind by observing proper, polite social etiquette with a stranger (and yes, there is a problem with calling \u201cetiquette\u201d \u201chospitality\u201d and expecting people to know what you mean, but inexactness of language is pretty common among humans,) and the stranger might not even notice, having no awareness of such distinctions of manners.\nIt\u2019s like giving perfume to someone who can\u2019t smell.\nUltimately, I suspect that \u201cSouthern Hospitality\u201d may be inexactly named, because it primarily isn\u2019t about hospitality per se, but about the conduct of relations between people, enforced perhaps among the middle to upper class, where folks (particularly strangers) at or above one\u2019s social class are treated formally and deferentially. This includes hospitality norms, among other things, but does not necessarily mean that hospitality is extended to all classes of people or that it means what non-Southerners think of as hospitality.\nI suspect that Southern \u201chospitality\u201d did not traditionally extend to people lower class than oneself\u2013Southern plantation owners were not opening their kitchens and bedrooms to every passing vagrant. Northerners who expect to be treated well regardless of their social class may find that they do not rate very highly on the Southern totem pole.\nNorthern society is supposed to be less hierarchical, (at least in theory,) and as a result, there are (I suspect) fewer socially observed norms of formality. (Business contexts may be different, though.)\nAnd this explains why Southern Hospitality feels \u201cfake\u201d to Northerners. Northerners tend only to be overtly friendly toward people they actually regard as friends, while to Southerners, overt friendliness toward strangers (whom they may never be friends with,) is simple politeness. The politeness is genuine politeness, but it is not friendship, which Northerners mistake it for. When they discover that it really wasn\u2019t friendship, they feel deceived. To the Southerners, of course, Northerners come across as ill-mannered and rude, due to their disregard of formalities.\nIndeed, many of the things Southerners consider \u201cnormal\u201d in the hospitality department are (I gather) considered rude or offensive in the North. For example, I think Northerners tend to expect their guests to stay at hotels, and Southerners expect to be put up in people\u2019s houses. The Northerners believe it rude to inflict oneself overmuch onto another\u2019s company and invade their home and disrupt their routine, while Southerners believe that being with others is a great joy and helping their relatives save money by opening up their homes is a moral good.\nWhich, of course, leads to both sides referring to the other as \u201crude.\u201d\nStill just a theory, though.\nBook Review: Strawberry Girl, by Lois Lenski (1945)\nJanuary 18, 2016 December 19, 2015 evolutiontheorist Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tanthropology, Appalachia, book reviews, Crackers, Florida, history, novels, Strawberry Girl, the South\nSet in the little-known backwoods region of Florida, [Strawberry Girl] is Birdie Boyer\u2019s story; of how she and her fierce Cracker pride battled nature, animals, and feuding neighbors to become the best \u201cstrawberry girl\u201d the backwoods ever knew.\nI confess: I picked this one out of the used books bin for the obvious reason.\nThe newly-released, 60th anniversary edition has a different back blurb, which doesn\u2019t mention \u201cCrackers.\u201d I don\u2019t know if they censored the text, too.\nStrawberry Girl is a middle grade novel\u2013about right for a fourth or fifth grader, depending on their tolerance for dialect\u2013along the lines of the Little House Series.\nFew people realize how new Florida is, or that, aside from the early Indian and Spanish settlements, Florida has grown up in the course of a single man\u2019s lifetime. In the early 1900\u2019s, the date of my story, Florida was still frontier country, with vast stretches of unexplored wilderness, woodland and swamp, and her towns were frontier towns thirty and forty years later than the same frontier period in the Middle West.\nAfter the Seminole War, 1835-1842, Anglo-Saxons from the Carolinas, Georgia, and West Florida drifted south and took up land in the lake region of Florida. \u2026 Their descendants, in the second and third generation, were, in 1900 and the following decade, just prior to the coming of the automobile, living in a frontier community, with all its crudities, brutalities, and cruelties. The \u201cCrackers\u201d lived a primitive life, an endless battle went on\u2013a conflict with nature, with wild life, and with their fellow man. \u2026\nLike their antecedents in the Carolina mountains, the Florida Crackers have preserved a flavorsome speech, rich in fine old English idiom\u2013word, phrase and rhythm. Many old customs, folk songs, and superstitions have been handed down along with Anglo-Saxon purity of type, shown in their unusual beauty of physical feature, and along with their staunch integrity of character. \u2026\nMy material has been gathered personally from the Crackers themselves, and from other Floridians who know and understand them. I have visited in Cracker homes. \u2026 All the characters in my book are imaginary, but practically all incidents used were told to me by people who had experienced them.\nAssuming Mrs. Lenski is accurate, there\u2019s a great deal of interesting material here. For starters, yes, apparently \u201cFlorida Crackers\u201d are a real thing and not just a slur, and even have their own (small) Wikipedia page. (So do the \u201cGeorgia Crackers.\u201d) According to Wikipedia:\nFlorida cracker refers to colonial-era English and American pioneer settlers and their descendants in what is now the U.S. state of Florida. The first of these arrived in 1763 after Spain traded Florida to Great Britain following the latter\u2019s victory over France in the Seven Years\u2019 War.\nGeorgia Cracker refers to the original American pioneer settlers of the Province of Georgia (later, the State of Georgia), and their descendants. \u2026\nBy the 1760s the English, both at home and in the American colonies, applied the term \u201cCracker\u201d to Scotch-Irish and English settlers of the remote southern back country, as noted in a passage from a letter to the Earl of Dartmouth: \u201cI should explain to your Lordship what is meant by Crackers; a name they have got from being great boasters; they are a lawless set of rascalls on the frontiers of Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas, and Georgia, who often change their places of abode.\u201d The word was later associated with the cowboys of Georgia and Florida, many of them descendants of those early frontiersmen.[1]\nThere is some debate, it appears, over the word\u2019s origin, whether from Shakespearean usage, \u201cto crack a joke, to boast,\u201d ie, people who were loud-mouth boasters, or from the sound of a whip cracking as the cowboys drove their cattle to market.\nToday, of course, the term is much more likely to be used as a slur, eg, \u201ccreepy cracker.\u201d\nThe Scotch-Irish are more commonly known as Appalachians. Lenski\u2019s characterization of her informants as \u201cAnglo-Saxons\u201d is therefore perhaps not entirely true; indeed, her main character\u2019s last name, Boyer, is most commonly French. (This is not an insurmountable issue\u2013plenty of French Huguenots settled in the American South after getting kicked out of France, and had long intermarried with everyone else.)\n\u201cPurity of type\u201d is a phrase one doesn\u2019t hear much anymore.\nMy main regret about this novel is that it is told from the POV of the Boyers instead of the Slaters. The Boyers have just arrived in Florida from \u201cCaroliny,\u201d and their goal is to start a commercially viable farm growing oranges and strawberries, which they send by train to markets in other states. The Slaters have been in the state for 4 generations (since grandpa Slater fought in the Seminole Indian Wars,) and are subsistence ranchers. While the Boyers\u2019 experiences are interesting, I understand the motivations of commercial farmers pretty well. I\u2019d rather learn more about the Slaters\u2019 POV\u2013their lifestyle is far less common. Since the Slaters are the antagonists, they just come across as dumb/lazy/mean (though not all of them.)\nThe book\u2019s principle dram revolves around conflict between the Boyers\u2019 lifestyle\u2013which requires fencing off the land, hard labor, and long-term planning\u2013or the Slaters\u2019 lifestyle\u2013which involves hunting and occasionally rounding up freely-ranging hogs and cattle. The Boyers\u2019 fences interfere with the Slaters\u2019 hogs and cattle getting to food and water, and the Slaters\u2019 hogs and cattle ate and trampled the Boyers\u2019 crops. Before the Boyers showed up, the Slaters had few neighbors, and free-ranging livestock weren\u2019t really a problem. So from the Slaters\u2019 POV, they had a perfectly good system going before the Boyers had to go move in next door. (Or did they? What was the TFR for folks like the Slaters?)\nI\u2019d really like to know how common this pattern was\u2013did many places get settled by, shall we say, wilder, more impulsive, violent folks (mostly Borderlands Scots and Scots-Irish?) who were willing to take their chances fighting Indians in untamed frontier areas and favored hunting, fishing, and ranching, and then once they\u2019d done the hard work of \u201ctaming\u201d these areas, did more English and German settlers fence everything off, start commercially profitable farms, and displace them? (A kind of gentrification of the frontier?)\nYou may have noticed Birdie\u2019s bare feet on the cover; Lenski mentions bare feet often in the narrative, and the manure spread on the fields for fertilizer. This, as you know, is a recipe for hookworm infection\u2013which 40% of Southern children suffered from.\nHookworm infections cause anemia, malnutrition, malnourishment, lethargy, and death. In fact, the Southern stereotype of lazy, pale, gaunt, and impoverished people\u2013personified in the book by the Slaters\u2013is due, in large part, to the effects of mass hookworm infection.\nThe book takes place around 1900 and the few years after. The first public hookworm eradication campaigns started in 1910, and there was another big campaign going on in Florida at the time the book was published. So I suspect hookworms were on the informants\u2019 and author\u2019s minds when describing their old lifestyles, in a \u201cwe didn\u2019t know!\u201d kind of way.\nThe book also depicts two older boys (teenagers) getting in a fight with the school master and beating the tar out of him. Interestingly, in the first chapter of Farmer Boy (in the Little House series,) Almanzo Wilder is worried about the older boys at his school beating the tar out of his teacher. (Farmer Boy is set in Upstate New York.) Was beating up the teacher some kind of regular thing?\nAs is typical for the time, there\u2019s a Prohibition theme (technically, Prohibition never fully ended in parts of Appalachia,) with the grown ups clucking moralistically over the antagonist\u2019s habit of spending all of his family\u2019s money on alcohol and then going into alcohol-fueled rages.\nUnfortunately, the ending is not very good\u2013it basically feels like the author decided she was done writing and so the main antagonist spontaneously found Christ and decided to stop being lazy and mean, but this is an overlookable flaw in an otherwise good book.",

Speech given to the Royal Institute for International Affairs at London on 17 January 2012.\nPosen also wrote a brief version of this: \u201cThe global economy is now distinctly Victorian\u201c, Financial Times, 6 August 2013 \u2013 \u201cThe Old Normal is looming large on our horizons, bringing with it unfettered markets\u201d.\nExcerpt from the speech\nWe have seen before a world in which global economic integration proceeds against the background of international relations somewhere between a clear hegemon and outright conflict. This kind of multipolar world is what existed in the late 19th century, roughly between 1870 and 1910.\n\u2026 The economic implications of such a world are worth drawing out. Looking back at what happened to macroeconomic aggregates from 1870-1910 tells a coherent and relevant story. While one cannot map precisely from then until now, I think the parallels will prove rather tight in coming years, not least because most of the dominant political interests in the major economies have interests and ideologies similar to their noble and haute bourgeois counterparts of the Belle Epoque. Where one spoke about landed interests in the late 1800s, one should now think of holders of government protected franchises (be they broadcasting, banking, lawyering, medical services, or the like). Where one spoke of declining transport costs driving change and threatening those interests then, one should think of internet technology doing the same now. And where one spoke of the United States then, one should think of China now (and of the United Kingdom then, the US now).\nThe first thing to recognize is that the late 19th century was a time of relatively high real economic volatility. While GDP growth rates were reasonable on average, they fluctuated a great deal (figures 1 and 2). The burden of adjusting these fluctuations fell primarily on labor, so unemployment rates fluctuated as well around a low average level (figures 3 and 4). Partly, this was due to the monetary regime in place at that time, the gold standard, which did not allow much room for stabilization policy by central banks (or the non-existence of a central bank in the US), so we should be able to avoid some of this real volatility in future.\nThat said, some of this volatility was due to the emphasis on price stability and budgetary discipline, which does apply to our current monetary arrangements. And some of this volatility was due to the incidence of real economic shocks, which also applies to our current situation (the early 2000s were a lucky respite). As seen here, the average growth rate of the lead economy (the UK then, the US going forward) was not spectacularly high, while the average growth rate of the catching-up rival (the US then, and China now) was sustained at a high though variable rate.\n\u2026 Given these factors, and the shift in relative economic weights from West to East, there will be a leading global currency, but not a single dominant reserve currency \u2013 much as Sterling, dollar and franc co-existed, each with their own adherents in the 1870-1910 period. As with the gold standard, there will be temporary suspensions or depreciations by countries that face extreme short-term adjustments. But re-entry to approved monetary policies and standards will be clearly demarked, and enforced by sovereigns\u2019 creditors. Credibility of policies compared to other monetary authorities in other currencies and economies will be a first order concern.\n\u2026 The main conclusions that I would like you to take away from my claim that international economics will return for the next couple of decades to what I call the Old Normal of 1870-1910 are:\nGlobalization in the form of integration of national economies and markets across borders will continue, with increasing support from important constituencies in emerging markets;\nAs US hegemony, that is relative economic dominance, recedes into multipolarity, the international economic system will have less strict rule enforcement and be subject to greater economic volatility;\nThe erosion of (intellectual and other) property right enforcement will have significant effects on the global division of labor, which will reinforce this multipolarity and income convergence;\nPrice stability will prevail, with sharper fluctuations around low average inflation driven by real (relative price) shocks, and deflation will occur from time to time;\nMore than one currency will play a global or reserve role, and the benefits in terms of lower interest rates from having such a role will diminish;\nInternational diversification of investment will increase, and so will the gross flows of capital, with capital accounts in the major emerging markets moving more towards balance if not deficit.\nThis is a tale of getting closer to unfettered markets in many ways, which I hasten to say I am solely forecasting, not recommending or endorsing. That being the case, it raises a host of potential parallels with the late 19th century in politics, regarding popular protest from labour, status quo countries coordinating against \u2018revolutionary\u2019 and non-state actors, rivalry being moved into imperial competition for markets and resources, and of course the eventual political limit to international integration that contributed to the First World War and what Harold James has called \u201cthe end of globalization.\u201d\nDomestic politics and international relations have changed far more than economics in the intervening century since 1910, given the lessons of the world wars, the spread of democracy, the development of nuclear deterrence among the major powers, the creation of safety nets and welfare states even in emerging markets, and the strong barriers against outright imperialism.\nLinear extrapolations like this are the start of the forecasting process, since trends in motion tend to stay in motion. And the past does repeat. In this case, moving back to the future \u2014 rebuilding the Gilded Age America of rising inequality, falling social mobility, and unfettered corporate power (aka \u201cmarkets\u201d). Governments as servants of plutocrats.\nIn this vision the Great Recession has effects like that of the Long Depression of 1873-1879, a bump on the road to the Ayn Randian rule of Nietzschean \u00dcbermensch plutocrats. That story did not end well. The Gilded Age was modified by the Progressive Era reforms, but fundamentally stopped only by the Great Depression. We could easily follow a similar path. Rolling along until pressure builds for mild reforms, followed by pressure continuing to build until our elites take us over a cliff.\nThe number of factors at work make for one certain forecast: interesting times ahead. But unpredictable.\nClimate change \u2014 both natural and anthropogenic factors\nResource pressures: fresh water shortages, rising energy prices, soil erosion and exhaustion\nDemographic change: rising population, radical changes in national age profiles, continued fertility declines \u2014 then possible population collapse\nTechnological changes: the robot revolution (automation doing to services what it did for farming and manufacturing), genetic engineering, perhaps even AI\nDuncan Weldon gives a critique of this speech at Touchstone (blog of the Trade Unions Congress), 8 August 2013.

        "title": "Facing Islam Blog: Why do Muslim jihadis kill children?",
        "raw_content": "The Islamic State and other jihad groups claim to follow the Koran and the example of Muhammad. Yet surely Muhammad didn't kill children? Did he?\nThe Islamic State and other Muslim, jihad groups follow Muhammad's example. Yet they kill women and young children, as seen in the Egypt bus attack in which 28 Coptic Christians were killed, and in the Manchester jihad bombing. In both instances children as young as eight years old were among the victims.\nThe Religion of Peace website has a helpful section that debunks Muslim myths about Islam and Muhammad which we are fed after each deadly Muslim jihad attack.\nMyths of Muhammad, The Religion of Peace:\nThe Myth: Muhammad Would Never Do Harm to a Child\n\"Our Prophet (peace be upon him) was a great man who would never order any measure that might do harm to an innocent child.\"\nIt is probably fair to say that Muhammad did not approve of killing children intentionally. A verse from the Quran laments the pre-Islamic Arab practice of infanticide against baby girls, for example. Other evidence from the Hadith suggests that he instructed his men not to kill children in battle if it could be avoided, but to capture them for slavery.\nHe also gave children a reprieve, when telling his people to \"kill those who disbelieve in Allah\":\n[Muhammad said] \u201cFight everyone in the way of Allah and kill those who disbelieve in Allah. Do not be deceitful with the spoils; do not be treacherous, nor mutilate nor kill children.\u201d (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 992)\nBut Muhammad\u2019s definition of a child was not the same as contemporary understanding. Following the surrender of the Qurayza stronghold, he ordered the execution of every male child who had reached puberty. His men had the boys drop their pants so that that anyone with pubic hair could be beheaded (Abu Dawud 4390).\nKeep in mind that many Muslims also insist that Aisha reached puberty at age nine, since that is the age that Muhammad began having sex with her. If so, then he might have considered the age for \u201cmanhood\u201d among boys to be around twelve.\nMuhammad also played a bit loose with the lives of women and children during wartime. As recorded in both Bukhari and Sahih Muslim:\nIt is reported on the authority of Sa'b b. Jaththama that the Prophet of Allah (may peace be upon him), when asked about the women and children of the polytheists being killed during the night raid, said: \u201cThey are from them.\u201d (Sahih Muslim 4322, see also Bukhari 52:256)\nThis does not justify the targeted killing of women and children per se, but it does prove that collateral damage is entirely acceptable if it accomplishes the military goal of spreading Islamic rule. The Quran, in verse 9:36, states that unbelievers should be fought \"altogether\" or \"collectively.\"\nMuhammad used a catapult against the city of Taif - a catapult kills indiscriminately. The only crime those citizens were guilty of was rejecting his claims of being a prophet and evicting him.\nMuhammad drew a distinction between Muslim and non-Muslim children and implied that it would be permissible to kill a child who has no prospect of accepting Islam:\nThe Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) used not to kill the children, so thou shouldst not kill them unless you could know what Khadir had known about the child he killed, or you could distinguish between a child who would grow up to he a believer (and a child who would grow up to be a non-believer), so that you killed the (prospective) non-believer and left the (prospective) believer aside. (Sahih Muslim 4457)\nAfter capturing Mecca, the prophet of Islam also ordered the execution of two \u201csinging girls\u201d who had mocked him in verse:\n\u201c\u2026two singing-girls Fartana and her friend who used to sing satirical songs about the apostle, so he ordered that they should be killed\u2026\u201d (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 819, Ibn Kathir v.3 p.403)\nMyths of Muhammad Index\nLabels: Islam, islamic terrorism, jihad, muhammad, muslim culture, Muslim persecution of Christians",

Not all Christmas songs honor Christ, most of them just celebrate celebration itself.\nBillboard Holiday 100 Songs\nChristmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) \u2014 Trans-Siberian Orchestra\nDo You Want To Build A Snowman? \u2014 Kristen Bell, Agatha Lee Monn & Katie Lopez\nBaby It\u2019s Cold Outside \u2014 Idina Menzel Duet with Michael Bubl\u00e9\nSilent Night \u2014 Kelly Clarkson Feat. Reba McEntire & Trisha Yearwood\nWonderful Christmastime \u2014 Paul McCartney\nIn the top 20, only 3 make an attempt to reference the Birth of Christ. While the first song is good, we saw in our last Christmas Gospel post that the song kind of ignores a great deal of what Scripture makes clear that Mary knew. Christmas Eve Sarajevo get\u2019s a pass because there are no words, but the melody begins with \u201cwhat Child is this\u201d (We\u2019ll be looking at this song next Tuesday). Silent Night is a good song as we discussed in today\u2019s DiM Post, but it got trumped today by Matt Maher\u2019s version.\nRemember that Jesus came to a world that was fallen and was not truly looking for Him. The World isn\u2019t celebrating Him, nor is it seeking Him. We aren\u2019t here to make the World acknowledge our holidays; rather, we preach Christ and Him crucified so that those who believe in Him will be saved out of the world and into eternal life in Christ Jesus.\n1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life,and the life was the light of men.5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.\n6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 He came as awitness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him.8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.\n9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him.12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.\n14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, \u201cThis was he of whom I said, \u2018He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.\u2019\u201d) 16 For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father\u2019s side, he has made him known.\nColossians 3:16-17 (ESV) 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.\nChristian Living, HolidaysChrist Jesus, Christmas, Christmas songs, Jesus Christ, Merry Christmas\n\u2190 DiM | \u201cSilent Night (Emmanuel)\u201d by Matt Maher\nTim Challies Blog | Moroni From the Realms of Glory \u2192",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Being on time\nA funny take on Olympic softball \u2192\nGet a rhythm\nOne of the things you\u2019ll often see with hitters, no matter whether they\u2019re hitting off a tee, soft toss, a machine or even live pitching is starting from a complete standstill. They stand like statues, and as the pitch comes in they move forward toward it.\nWhile you can do that, it\u2019s not ideal. You\u2019re better off moving backwards first then forward \u2014 what is often called a negative move. The reason is simple physics.\nNewton\u2019s first law of motion says an object at rest will tend to remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. That means in order to get it moving, a certain amount of energy has to be expended. This energy doesn\u2019t contribute to the swing, so it\u2019s essentially wasted.\nThink about a freight train starting from a standing stop. There is a lot of noise and fury but not much movement. It takes a while until it really gets going. But if it\u2019s already moving, it\u2019s easier to get it to go faster. All that early energy is being used to overcome inertia.\nThe same happens with the swing. If you go forward first, or start with all your weight back already, you\u2019re going to use a disproportionate amount of energy just to get your body moving. But if you push back a little first, before the swing really occurs, your body will be in motion and can slingshot off of that momentum to make a quicker and more powerful forward movement.\nThat\u2019s what to do and why. But what about how? The best way to think of it is like a dance movement. A small but rhythmic sway backwards usually works better than a stiff movement. Practice in front of a mirror until it looks smooth and natural. When you can do that you will be ready to apply it to your swing.\nAs Johnny Cash said, get a rhythm. It will do wonders for your hitting.\nPosted on August 27, 2008, in Hitting. Bookmark the permalink.\tLeave a comment.",

        "raw_content": "Category Archives: Mental game\nA couple of weeks ago, as I was preparing for my annual battle with putting Christmas lights on the roof of my house, I came across the note pictured above. It was a message from myself last spring, when I took the lights down, alerting me to a potential issue with some of the strings.\n(By the way, a tip of the Hatlo Hat to the TV show How I Met Your Mother for the whole Future Ken/Past Ken thing.)\nI had completely forgotten the lights had fallen off the roof (better them than me!), so I was glad I\u2019d done it. I was also quite amused by the whole concept.\nThen last week at the NFCA convention I heard a speaker talk about how players should do the exact same thing prior to their season, to be opened at the end. In her case it was to be opened upon winning an NCAA D1 championship (which didn\u2019t happen), but the concept is still a good one.\nFor players who are serious about their game, what better way is there to end a season than to look at the perspective of their (slightly) younger selves to see how it matched up to reality?\nHere\u2019s the idea. Before the season, the player sits down and imagines what the season will be like. Not just the quantifiable goals, but maybe how things went, what the experience was like, what they accomplished, what they liked and disliked, etc.\nIt should be a personal letter from Past (Player) to Future (Player). It could include encouragement, consolation, congratulations or whatever the player happens to be feeling at the time.\nThen seal it up and put it away, not to be opened until after the season. Now that they player has gone through the entire season experience, she can compare what she thought would happen, and how she thought she\u2019d feel, to what actually happened.\nAn exercise like this can help put things into perspective. For example, if the player is on the fence about whether to stay with this team or look for another, she can compare what her expectations were to what actually happened.\nIf she had a tough season, she can look back on how hard she expected to work and compare that to how hard she actually worked. If she was feeling awkward around new teammates in the beginning, she can compare that to how she feels about her teammates now. Maybe she made some great new friends and is just grateful to have been part of such an awesome group.\nThere are so many things to be gained from this exercise. If you\u2019re a parent, try having your favorite player do it. If you\u2019re a coach, have your team do it and hold the envelopes until the end of the season banquet/party.\nBy the way, this isn\u2019t just for players. Coaches can do the same exercise as well.\nI\u2019ve had great seasons where you hated to see them end, and I\u2019ve had seasons where it all couldn\u2019t end soon enough. If nothing else it would have been fun to see how my earlier self viewed what was coming and whether it matched up to what actually occurred.\nIn our hyper-fast world we tend to only look at what\u2019s right in front of us. In doing so we miss the benefits of a longer-term view.\nBy taking the time to write out this letter to their future selves, players and coaches can gain a longer-term view, and perhaps use that to change their next future.\nSo what do you think of this idea? Have you ever tried it? If so, how did it turn out? Leave your experiences below in the comments.\nTags: aspirations, Christmas lights, encouragement, Future Ken, Letter, Past Ken, perspective\nThe Mayor: Fun way to help pitchers with the mental game\nOne of the toughest things for any fastpitch softball pitcher is keeping control over her emotions. Pitchers are very exposed, and face a lot of pressure on every pitch, so it\u2019s easy for them to get too high or too low depending on the outcome of the pitcher. Neither is terribly good.\nThis high/low issue was very evident in one of my pitching students, a 12U pitcher named Sarah. She\u2019d throw a great pitch during a lesson and have a wide grin on her face. Then she\u2019d try another, it wouldn\u2019t work right, and the sad face came out.\nIt wasn\u2019t just a little bit of disappointment. Her spirits would visibly fall \u2013 exaggerated by how high the last high was.\nI would talk to her about needing to \u201cmaintain an even strain,\u201d and she would nod, but the next time it would happen she\u2019d do the same thing. I kept trying to think of how I could explain it better.\nThen it hit me: Halloween was coming up, and with it Halloween merchandise. I thought about the Mayor from The Nightmare Before Christmas.\nIf you\u2019ve never seen it, the character is the Mayor of Halloween Town. He has two faces. One is a gigantic grin; the other is a sad face. (See the graphic at the top of the post.)\nHis head spins around to show the appropriate face, depending on his mood. There is no in-between. Just like Sarah, I thought!\nI thought what better way to illustrate it than to pick up a Mayor doll of some sort and give it to Sarah. So I ran to Walgreen\u2019s, and found the perfect representation. It was just the head, about the size of a Beanie Baby. It was the kind of thing she could keep in her bag as a reminder not to go into \u201cMayor mode.\u201d And it was fun.\nShe got it immediately, and was happy to get the gift. But it\u2019s what happened next that was most interesting.\nIn her next lesson, she was a lot more even in her moods. If something went wrong she was able to shrug it off pretty easily \u2013 much more so than before. When she did make a face, I\u2019d just call her Mayor and she\u2019d smile and come out of it. Seemed like the Mayor had done his job.\nFast forward to this past Monday. As she was putting her glove in her bag after her lesson she pulled out the Mayor, and that brought up a discussion. She said she had another girl on her team who would have even bigger mood swings, so she handed the girl the Mayor to help her pull out of a bad one.\nApparently the Mayor has become somewhat of a team mascot. Whenever someone gets down, they get the Mayor, and he helps them snap out of it. Fun to hear they\u2019re all sharing him, and reaping the benefits.\nHelping the mental game can be tough, because you never know what might work. But if you have a player, or a team, that is struggling with evening out their moods, get out and see if you can pick up a Mayor while Halloween is still going on. It just might do the trick.\nPosted in Mental game, Pitching\nTags: maintain an even strain, Mayor, mental game, mood swings, pitching\nOne way to avoid re-injuring a knee\nThe #KyleSchwarber coming back from a knee injury storyline is getting a lot of coverage right now during the World Series. But I think I have a fastpitch softball story that can top it.\nTaylor Danielson, whom I have written about before, hurt her knee playing high school softball back in the spring and wound up missing the whole summer. This would have been more worrisome since this was to be the summer between her junior and senior year, but fortunately she had already verballed to a college. (I won\u2019t say which quite yet due to superstition, but check back in a couple of weeks.)\nWhen the injury occurred she was told she wouldn\u2019t get back on the field until 2017. While that is a good prognosis for an ordinary person, Taylor is hardly an ordinary player. She worked her butt off rehabbing her knee, and was finally cleared for limited action for the end of the fall ball season.\nThere were some caveats. No catching (she\u2019s an awesome catcher), and while she could hit, she couldn\u2019t run full out. No stretching a single into a double, or going from first to third. She was under strict orders to run base to base and that\u2019s it \u2013 a shame since she has 2.8 speed from home to first.\nSince she couldn\u2019t run like she wanted, Taylor decided to address it her own way. The video shows how \u2013 she hit the ball so far she was able to jog her way around the bases. All of them.\nJust goes to show where there\u2019s a will there\u2019s a way. And you can\u2019t keep a great player down.\nTags: comeback, Hitting, inspiration, Taylor Danielson",

        "raw_content": "How Governments Can Improve our Summer Vacations\nCommentary, Taxation, Trade August 24, 2009\n\u201cThe way to ensure summer in England is to have it framed and glazed in a comfortable room,\u201d wrote the English Earl, Horace Walpole, in 1774. With a look back at the cool summer in much of Canada where the rule has been more cold and less sun\u2014British Columbia and its forest fires an obvious exception, it\u2019s a sentiment with which most Canadians might agree.\nThe weather is not something men and women or their politicians can do much about. That\u2019s unlike an issue over which our governments have direct control and where a simple policy change would make summer vacations cheaper and more pleasant: the constant gouging of consumers at the Canada-U.S. border.\nThe border gouging, and the border line-ups they produce, is an item vacationers might notice during their summer vacations if they skip across the line. They then probably forget about it for much of rest of the year. They shouldn\u2019t. The duties and taxes imposed at the border are an example of how free trade ostensibly exists between Canada, the United States and Mexico, but not for consumers.\nAnd there is great hypocrisy here. The premiers recently met in Regina to urge the U.S. to allow Canadian companies in on state and local procurement. They issued that call because access is restricted thanks to the Obama administration and Congress\u2019 \u201cBuy America\u201d provisions in their stimulus packages.\nThe opening up of such trade would be useful and a smart addition to NAFTA which does not yet apply to local governments on either side of the border.\nHowever, while our provincial and federal governments preach free trade at the macro level, they then stiff consumers as individuals.\nAt present, any Canadian who crosses the border for just under 24 hours faces taxes and duties if they bring back foreign-purchased goods worth more than $50; they can bring back up to $400 worth if absent for more than 48 hours, or $750 if away for more than one week.\nU.S. limits on its citizens are more generous: Americans can bring back up to U.S. $200 worth of purchases in any 48-hour period before they face duties and taxes. That limit is increased to $800 if absent from the country for more than two days.\nThe Canadian limits are low and don\u2019t even include that most useful summer beverage: beer. As any border-crosser knows, bring back any alcohol (regardless of the just-noted Canadian dollar allowances), and you\u2019re limited to 24 cans of beer or two bottles of wine on any return before you\u2019re hammered with punitive duties and taxes.\nIt\u2019s clear why Canada\u2019s provincial governments like to punish consumers at the border (though that\u2019s no reason for Ottawa to play along): most border states have far lower prices for beer, wine and spirits. That\u2019s because American states have significantly lower taxes and mark-ups compared to Canadian provinces.\nIn addition, every province except Alberta has at least some government liquor stores which rake in profits over and above the mark-ups and taxes imposed on the product itself.\nEven in Alberta, where the province fully privatized government liquor stores in 1993, the provincial government still rakes in almost $700-million in invisible mark-ups on alcohol. So the Alberta government favours taxes and duties at the border to get its pound of flesh from Albertans who cross the border with beer, wine and spirits. Other provincial governments, with sales taxes in addition to mark-ups on alcohol, are similarly rapacious.\nIf the premiers and the federal Conservative government are serious about open markets , they should remove all duties and taxes at the border. That would provoke competition and lower prices for consumers in both the U.S. and Canada on a variety of items. In addition to shorter line-ups at the international crossing, it would, importantly, be a useful demonstration on the virtues of free trade.\nLet\u2019s suppose governments can\u2019t bring themselves to abolish duties and taxes at the border completely\u2014though they should do both given cross-border shoppers already pay tax in the jurisdiction where they bought their goods.\nAt the very least, in Canada\u2019s case, the federal government could at least wipe away the different standard on beer, wine and spirits at the border and give consumers a break. Should provinces complain, Ottawa can remind them they were the ones who recently demanded more free trade.\nGovernments cannot change lousy summer weather. They can remove their artificial impediments to free trade for consumers\u2014and to cheaper summer vacations.",

        "raw_content": "Court Grants Default Judgment Against Litigant Who Refuses to Appear for Deposition\nSTERLING CROSS DEFENSE SYSTEMS, INC. v. DOLARIAN CAPITAL, INC., Dist. Court, ED California 2015 \u2013 Google Scholar.\nThe defendant in this case must have a really good reason not to appear for his deposition.\nNeither the witness nor his lawyer appeared at the date and time when the deposition was noticed. The district court awarded sanctions and ordered the client and his lawyer to appear at a show cause hearing to explain why they should not be held in contempt. From there things went downhill:\n\u201cThe Court determined, with reference to the website of the State Bar of California, that Defendant\u2019s counsel had been ordered inactive by the State Bar as of February 27, 2015 and is no longer eligible to practice in the State of California.[1]Smith never advised the Court of this development, nor did he withdraw as attorney of record for Plaintiff. Plaintiff\u2019s counsel, Jeff Reich, informed the Court, both at the hearing and via declaration, that Smith had been non-responsive to his communication attempts for some time. (Declaration of Jeff Reich \u00b6 11, ECF No. 32.)\nThe Court granted Plaintiff\u2019s request for monetary sanctions in the amount of $1,625.00 and issued an order to show cause why further sanctions, including the striking of all responsive pleadings and entry of default, should not be imposed based on Smith\u2019s failures to appear, both at the deposition and at the hearing on the motion to compel. The order, which was directed at both Dolarian and Smith, required each to file separate responses to the order to show cause no later than June 25, 2015. It also provided Dolarian the opportunity to request a continuance if he required time to retain new counsel. (ECF No. 36.) Finally, the order required personal appearances by both Dolarian and Smith. The order to show cause hearing was set for July 10, 2015.\nThe U.S. Marshals Service was directed to personally serve both Dolarian and Smith with the order and succeeded in doing so on June 8, 2015; the two were served in adjacent suites in the building housing Smith\u2019s law offices. (ECF No. 37.) Neither Smith nor Dolarian filed any response to the order to show cause. Neither Smith nor Dolarian appeared at the order to show cause hearing.\u201d\nThe Ninth Circuit uses a five-factor test to determine whether a case should be dismissed pursuant to Rule 37.\n\u201d In re Exxon Valdez, 102 F.3d 429, 432 (9th Cir.1996). In determining whether to dismiss an action or enter default pursuant to Rule 37(b)(2)(C), a district court must consider five factors:\n(1) the public\u2019s interest in expeditious resolution of litigation; (2) the court\u2019s need to manage its docket; (3) the risk of prejudice to the [opposing party]; (4) the public policy favoring disposition of cases on their merits; and (5) the availability of less drastic sanctions.\u2019 Payne,121 F.3d at 507, quoting Malone v. U.S. Postal Serv., 833 F.2d 128, 130 (9th Cir.1987). Where a court order is violated, the first and second factors will favor sanctions and the fourth will cut against them.Id.\nComputer Task Group, Inc. v. Brotby, 364 F.3d 1112, 1115 (9th Cir.2004).\u201d\nBecause neither the defendant nor his lawyer appeared for the show cause hearing the court entered a default judgment against the defendant. This is an ugly outcome for the defendant. One must wonder why he would use a lawyer who was not licensed to practice law and why he failed to appear at the show cause hearing and explain his predicament to the judge. The defendant/deponent could have appeared before the judge and claimed that he did not know that his lawyer was no longer allowed to practice law. The judge would then have been required to give time to obtain new counsel and complete the deposition.\nIn sum, this is an ugly outcome that could have been prevented with even a minimum of courtesy to the court and opposing counsel.\nTrial Court Denies Motion in Limine To Exclude A Witness Who Was Not Listed On Witness List\nThe Anti-Plaintiff Pending Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Pro-Defendant Composition of the Federal Rulemaking Committees by Patricia W.

        "raw_content": "Snoop Dogg's daughter Cori Broadus' Bio, Career, Net worth, Personal life, Early life\nWho is Cori Broadus?\nThe teenage daughter of the famous American rapper Snoop Dog, Cori Broadus, was only born yesterday, but like her father, she is well on her way to the stardom. The California-born, Cori, is mainly known for being the daughter of the most famous rapper in America. But recently she began making a name for herself, releasing her own songs.\nHow was the Early life of Cori Broadus?\nFig: Snoop Dogg, wife Shante Broadus, and his kids Cori Broadus and Julian Corrie Broadus\nBorn in 1999 in California, Cori celebrates her birthday on 22 June with the famous rapper father, Snoop Dog and entrepreneur mother, Shante Broadus. She grew up with Corde Broadus and Cordell, two brothers. Cori graduated from Los Angeles ' Ramon C in 2017 from School of Visual Arts and Performance of Cortines. Cori is very short in height, but with her age on her side, she could soon grow tall.\nCori suffered from Lucas\nAt age 11, Cori was diagnosed with lupus, a disease in which the body's immune system begins to fight healthy cells. The frightened members of the family reached Lupus LA, a non-profit organization dedicated to lupus research and curing. While lupus could be under Cori\u2019s control, Shante was an active force in combating the disease, raising funds for Lupus LA, increasing media awareness and even joining the Lupus LA Board.\nWhen and how did Cori Broadus start her Career?\nCreated by divorce and reunion of her parents and lupus, Cori is now 19 years old and on her way to becoming an independent young woman and a successful young woman, a musician like her dad. She released a bunch of singles in 2018, the latest being an R&B track called New Phone, Who Dis?. She released her debut single earlier, a melody, the same one.\nHow much is the Net worth of Cori Broadus?\nWhile Cori could still live under the unbelievable net worth of $135 million of her father (according to the wikis), she's already making a pile of herself.\nWho is in the Personal life of Cori Broadus?\nCori was also an independent woman when she came to her personal life and did not heed the decisions of her parents regarding her dating. Like any other highly protective parents, her parents prevented her from dating until she was 18 years old. Snoop even went so far as to say that she should not date until she was 77 years old\u2014of course as a joke.\nA post shared by CHOC???? (@princessbroadus) on Jan 5, 2019 at 5:09am PST\nCori grew up as a woman, however, and began dating boyfriends, something she announced back in 2015, when she was only 16, two years younger than the minimum age of her mother, forget about her dad. However, the name of the boyfriend was not revealed. Moreover, it is also unknown whether she was still the same boyfriend at the age of 19 when she was 16. A woman like Cori must spread her own wings away from her parents' span and Cori did just that.\nSingerCorde BroadusSnoop DogCori Broadus",

Planned Parenthood\nTrump already has his 2020 campaign slogan! \u2192\nJeb Bush's threat against Trump: 'I'd be careful Donald'\nI didn\u2019t know this until I saw a retweet of this last night.\nA year ago on Jan. 22, 2016, in the midst of the GOP primary battles, Jeb Bush tweeted this veiled threat at his primary election opponent Donald Trump:\nJeb Bush\u2019s tweet provides the context for how to interpret his father George H.W. Bush\u2019s throat-slash hand gesture a month later, at the GOP debate in Houston, Texas.\nStripped of their patrician veneer, the Bushes behave like a mafia crime family.\nThere are persistent rumors on the net that Barbara Bush is the daughter of British occultist satanist Aleister Crowley, whose motto was \u201cDo As Thou Wilt\u201d.\nBarbara\u2019s father was Marvin Pierce, president of the McCall Corporation that published McCall\u2019s and Redbook magazines. It is alleged that in early 1924, Barbara\u2019s mother, Pauline Pierce, visited her friend Nellie O\u2019Hara in Paris, France. Residing in O\u2019Hara\u2019s home at the time was Aleister Crowley.\nDuring Pauline\u2019s visit, Crowley underwent an initiation into the Masonic Ipsissimus Grade \u2014 the highest magickal achievement in his Ordo Templi Orientis religious organization. The initiation rite included choosing one or more experienced attendants, charged with arousing and exhausting him sexually by every means possible.\nPauline returned to America, and on June 8, 1925, eight months after Crowley\u2019s initiation, gave birth to a daughter she named Barbara. Barbara Pierce grew up to marry George H. W. Bush, who later became President of the United States, and gave birth to George W. Bush and Jeb Bush.\nIn the side-by-side pics below, Barbara Bush (top right, bottom left) does bear an uncanny resemblance to Aleister Crowley (top left, bottom right).\nSee also \u201cBarbara Bush says she loves Bill Clinton\u201c.\nA day after I published this post, news came that both George H.W. and Barbara Bush are hospitalized: he\u2019s in intensive care for pneumonia; she for \u201cfatigue and coughing\u201d.\nTrump tweeted that he\u2019s \u201clooking forward to a speedy recovery\u201d for the two Bushes.

I feel like I was expecting a rated R version and what I got was PG for the most part with a smidgen of PG-13 thrown in. I wanted to see the darker side to Domino and it was mostly just hinted at throughout the book. The only time that we get to see Wilson is at the end of the book. I wanted the author to explore the inside of Domino's head instead of her saying shut up to herself and having drama with other girls at Ms. Karina's house. I know that the author said that she was trying to explore DID but I feel that it wasn't as much of a success as I would have liked for it to be.\nPosted by Brittany at 11:13 AM\nKami November 14, 2018 at 12:26 PM\nSorry this disappointed a bit.

        "raw_content": "In Perspective \u2013 A Breif History of Finland\nWhen I talk about Finnish immigrants to the America, many of you will probably notice that many Finns do not come from \u201cFinland\u201d. As a country, Finland is not even 100 years old. In fact, Finland has only been autonomous for 104 years.\nFrom the 12th century until 1809, the land now known as Finland was mostly part of Sweden. The exceptions were 1714 to 1721, the Greater Wrath, and 1742 to 1743, the Lesser Wrath, when Finland was under control of the Russians. So from the founding of New Sweden in 1638 until 1809, Swedish-Finns would be immigrating to the Americas (United States, Canada, and the Caribbean).\nIn 1809 Sweden, along with England and Portugal, were at war with Napoleon. The Russians would take advantage of a newly formed peace with France to attack Sweden. At that time Finland would become an autonomous part of Russia, the Grand Dutchy of Finland, under Czar Alexandar I. Finland would declare independence December 6th 1917. The Great Migration of Finns, not only to the US and Canada but also now Argentina and Brazil, would occur under Russian rule.\nDuring the founding of New Sweden, it is said that half the settlers were Finnish, roughly 182 in 1655. Today in the Americas, latest censuses estimate claim there are roughly 700,000 Finns in the US (placing it as the largest concentration outside Finland), 131,000 in Canada (#3), and 90,000 in Brazil (#5). If you\u2019re interested, Sweden and Russia fill in the respective skipped positions in the top 5.\nAs I continue writing my articles, I will share my on-line and real-world discoveries of Finnish immigration into the New World. Sometimes I will focus on individuals. Sometimes I will focus on entire communities. I will also be adding lists of sites of Finnish cultural or historical significance as well as a list of events in the Americas.\nPrevious The Confederate Finn\nNext Finns of the Caribbean",

        "raw_content": "Classic beauty\tMarch 10, 2009\nTags: lovely, old-fashioned\nI love this old advertisement from Ivory Soap for so many reasons. First, we don\u2019t have many advertisements nowadays that use drawings or sketches\u2013 ads today use \u201creal\u201d women\u2013 but they aren\u2019t very real. The bride in this illustration doesn\u2019t even look like she has any make-up on; this is appropriate, of course, because the ad is for Ivory Soap. As in, your skin will be so naturally beautiful that you won\u2019t need any make-up.\nI also really like the beautiful lettering, and the illustrated roses around the phrase, \u201cThe Bride.\u201d It\u2019s so simple, and old-fashioned. It makes me think of book labels, or place cards, or personal stationery.\nThe greenery and flowers are also lovely\u2013 notice that there are fresh flowers on the bride\u2019s veil, and we can see one of the bridesmaids\u2019 bouquets. The bridesmaids themselves look so sweet, and serene, and are sending the couple off with rice. And the bride herself\u2013 the very picture of calm.\nFinally, I really appreciate that the bride and groom are pictured together. Again, in many ads, and all throughout bridal magazines, it\u2019s only about the bride. Even in Martha Stewart Weddings, which does a great job of showing off the uniqueness and beauty of each couple, there are few photos with the groom, or with the groom as equally pictured as the bride.\nI understand that the finery and choices for the bride can be more exciting than those of the groom\u2026and that the consumers of bridal ads are mostly the women themselves. But I don\u2019t like the idea that it\u2019s all about _me_ on that day, that I\u2019m a fashion plate existing in a one-day fantasy. I prefer the reality: that Matt and I are sharing a sacrament, with our families and loved ones around us, and _together_ are beautiful and glowing on that day. Somehow, this old advertisement captures some of that sentiment, in lovely, muted pastels. Perfect.\nOne Response to \u201cClassic beauty\u201d\nwhy do all the bridesmaids look asian, while the bride and the groom look white? not to say that i object to having asian bridesmaids, but the way they are positioned in subordinate roles in the drawing is slightly unsettling. perhaps we are to assume the bride is really asian, but because she\u2019s the beautiful bride, she just looks prettier\u2013i.e. whiter? is this what ivory soap does to your skin? given this is an advertisement for ivory soap, i am compelled to read this ad as \u201civory is like asian rice on your skin, the finest of the orient.\u201d muted beauty indeed.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Environmental and Social Risk Management > Managing Environmental and Social Risk > Components of an ESMS > Monitoring Client/Investee Environmental and Social Performance\nMonitoring Client/Investee Environmental and Social Performance\nThe purpose of monitoring a client's/investee's environmental and social performance is to assess existing and emerging environmental and social risks associated with a client's/investee's operations during the duration of a transaction.\nOnce a transaction has been approved, the financial institution needs to monitor the client\u2019s/investee\u2019s ongoing compliance with the environmental and social clauses stipulated in the legal agreement. Environmental and social risks or compliance status may change from the time of transaction approval.\nFrom the time of transaction approval, environmental and social regulations may become more stringent, the client/investee may modify its operations or production processes in a way that exacerbate previously identified risks or present new environmental and social risks. Managing emerging environmental and social risks at the transaction level ensures effective environmental and social risk management at the portfolio level.\nA financial institution\u2019s ESMS should explain the process for systematic monitoring on a periodic basis, such as by implementing procedures for verifying compliance with environmental and social requirements including implementation of any corrective action plans to resolve non-compliances. The frequency and extent of monitoring will depend on the complexity of environmental and social issues associated with a client\u2019s/investee\u2019s operations.\nThe monitoring process generally involves a review of periodic environmental and social performance reports submitted by the client/investee and regular site visits of the client\u2019s/investee\u2019s operations. Special attention should be paid to:\nAssessing implementation of any mitigation measures specified in the corrective action plan\nMonitoring for valid environmental and social permits or licenses\nAny fines and penalties for non-compliance with environmental and social regulations\nRecent reports from the relevant regulator or inspection authority confirming compliance with specified laws, including any emissions measurements proving that emissions are below the permitted limits\nEnvironmental and social occurrences including major accidents or incidents associated with a client\u2019s/investee\u2019s operations such as worker injuries and spills\nMedia attention to environmental and social issues related to the client/investee\nAny complaints submitted by stakeholders about a client/investee\nIf financial institution staff identify environmental and social issues, such as a client\u2019s/investee\u2019s non-compliance with the environmental and social clauses stipulated in the legal agreement, they should follow up with the client/investee to resolve these in a reasonable timeframe. Depending on the complexity of the environmental and social issues associated with a client\u2019s/investee\u2019s operations, financial institution staff should require a new corrective action plan and/or periodic reports on environmental and social performance throughout the duration of the transaction. The reporting frequency should be tailored to each individual transaction and should be based on self-monitoring by the client/investee or monitoring by independent third parties and/or regulatory authorities.",

        "raw_content": "***View the Disclosures Here***\nThe three Supreme Court justices who own individual securities shed up to $360,000 from their portfolios last year, while Justice Gorsuch pocketed up to $500,000 from selling his Colorado vacation home, and Justice Sotomayor netted $117,500 in book advances, according to the court\u2019s 2017 financial disclosure reports released today.\nChief Justice Roberts sold up to $50,000 in Hill-Rom Holdings, up to $15,000 in Hillenbrand and up to $15,000 in Nokia; Justice Breyer sold up to $100,000 in Cisco, up to $50,000 in Air Products & Chemical and up to $15,000 in Versum Materials; and Justice Alito sold up to $100,000 in C.R. Bard and up to $15,000 in Schlumberger while making the only high court securities purchase of 2017, up to $15,000 in Becton Dickinson.\nAll told, Roberts, Breyer and Alito owned shares in 44 companies at the end of 2017, compared to 49 companies at the end of 2016, 60 companies at the end of 2015 and 76 companies at the end of the 2014.\n\u201cEach year, dozens of publicly traded companies petition the Supreme Court, and in roughly 50 instances annually, a justice will own shares in a petitioner, meaning he must recuse from the case and hope an even-numbered court can find a resolution,\u201d FTC executive director Gabe Roth said. \u201cLuckily, only three justices own individual stocks, and they\u2019ve slowly begun selling them off. But if savings accounts and retirement funds are good enough for two-thirds of the justices, then these types of investments, which almost never yield recusals, should be fine for all nine.\u201d\nIn addition to their various and varied investments and their quarter-million-dollar salary, nearly every justice maintained an outside source of income. Chief Justice Roberts earned $20,000 for teaching in Australia and New Zealand; Justice Kennedy earned $12,500 for teaching in Austria; Justice Thomas earned $27,765 for teaching in Nebraska, Virginia and D.C.; Justice Ginsburg earned the same amount for teaching in Italy and California; Breyer earned $4,765 in book royalties; Alito earned $27,765 for teaching in Italy and North Carolina; Kagan earned $17,500 for teaching in Massachusetts; and Gorsuch earned $9,020 in book royalties and $2,600 for teaching in Colorado ahead of his April 2017 SCOTUS appointment.\nSotomayor is currently writing two books for which she received the advances: one is a tween adaption of \u201cMy Beloved World,\u201d and the other will chronicle some of the books that have most impacted her life.\nGorsuch and partners sold their 2,923-sq.-ft. central Colorado property that sits on 40 acres and whose registered agent \u2013 it\u2019s called Walden Group LLC in filings \u2013 is the COO of the Anschutz Investment Co., an association for which he came under fire during his confirmation hearings.\nAlso of note is that Ginsburg, whose public profile continues to rise, took the most reimbursed trips among the justices with 13.\nToday marks just the second time since the Ethics in Government Act went into effect in Oct. 1978 that the justices\u2019 disclosures were distributed for free and via anything other than paper \u2013 in this case, thumb drives. Since its founding in Nov. 2014, FTC has urged the judiciary to digitize the reports.\nHere is a list of the companies owned by the justices as of Dec. 31, 2017:\n\u2013 Roberts (7 cos.): Lam Research, Sirius XM, Texas Instruments, Thermo Fisher Scientific, TIME Inc., Time-Warner, Charter Communications\n\u2013 Breyer (9 cos.): ADP, Applied Analysis, Cintas, Fastenal, Lowe\u2019s, Paccar, Pearson, Sysco, UTC\n\u2013 Alito (28 cos.): 3M, Abbott Labs, Abbvie, AES, Becton Dickinson, BHP Biliton, Black Hills, Boeing, Caterpillar, CDK Global, ConocoPhillips, DowDuPont, Fortis, Jacobs Engineering, Johnson & Johnson, L\u2019Occitane, Merck, MolsonCoors, Mondelez, OGE Energy, Oracle, Parker Hannifin, Phillips 66, PNC, Procter & Gamble, Sealed Air, TJ Maxx, UTC",

        "raw_content": "Planting the Seed: Cultivating the Next Generation of Farmers\nEmma Tozer\nCalifornia-based, Center for Land-Based Learning, strives to cultivate appreciation and respect for the environment and agriculture, especially among youth. In response to the declining and aging farmer workforce, the Center is encouraging youth to enter the food and agriculture field.\nFood Tank had the opportunity to speak with Christine McMorrow, Director of Development, at the Center for Land-Based Learning.\nFood Tank (FT): How do you contribute to creating a better food system?\nChristine McMorrow (CM): The Center for Land-Based Learning contributes to a better food system by cultivating opportunities for youth and adults to engage with and learn about the complex issues that factor into how our food is produced, harvested, stored, distributed, and sold.\nOur youth programs develop leadership skills that help young people to navigate the complex issues that factor into food system decisions. Students get out of the classroom and onto farms and ranches, into processing facilities, and post-secondary institutions to learn about college and career pathways in agriculture and natural resources management. They enhance native habitat on farms through restoration work and learn best practices for agricultural and natural resources conservation.\nOur beginning farmer training program, the California Farm Academy, provides training and support to increase the number of farmers in California. We are reducing the barriers to entering into a farming profession with an associated business incubator program that provides access to land, infrastructure, peer-to-peer and marketing support for small-scale farmers ready to begin farming.\nFT: What is a project, program, or result you are most proud of?\nCM: In May 2014, we partnered with the City of West Sacramento to start one small 2/3 acre urban farm. Within one year, six acres of new vacant lots have been secured and made ready for beginning farmers to lease land and start farming. In 2015, we have helped six new farmers get their farm businesses up and running. To ensure success, we are working with these farmers to help them develop the relationships needed to sell their produce to local restaurants, large retailers, and directly to the consumer. At our mobile farm stand, EBT cards are accepted, and farmers work cooperatively to keep the stand staffed and stocked with a variety of fresh, locally grown vegetables.\nFT: What are your goals for 2015 and beyond?\nCM: Create more \u2018farm-to-fork\u2019 communities where food is grown, purchased, and consumed where people live. We will do this by working with The New Home Company and their new development in Davis, CA, called The Cannery. Together, we are working to incorporate an urban farm into this new community, and place beginning farmers into a fully-supported system to grow food for the people who live there.\nIntroduce more youth to Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) jobs that play an increasingly large role in agriculture.\nGrow new partnerships to create more opportunities for beginning farmers to find land to farm and markets to sell their produce.\nAssist farmers in finding larger plots of land as their businesses grow.\nFT: In one sentence, what is the most important thing eaters and consumers can do today to support a more sustainable food system?\nCM: Educate themselves about the science, technology, engineering, and math applications being applied to the food system that allow the world\u2019s agriculturalists to grow food for billions while taking into account the environmental and social needs of our planet.\nFT: How can individuals become more involved in your organization?\nCM: Sign up for our newsletter to stay posted on our activities and programs.\nVolunteer form link HERE.\nVolunteer page HERE.\nDownload the 2015 Good Food Org Guide HERE.\nEmma Tozer is pursuing a master\u2019s degree in Agroecology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Sk\u00e5ne County, Sweden. Her thesis research investigates the conceptual relationship between local food policy councils and agroecology as a social movement. A Virginia native, she received a BA in Anthropology from James Madison University, where she also worked as a field and lab technician for the JMU Archaeology Research Center.

        "raw_content": "FOB is very much concerned about the current situation with freedom of belief in China. Which does not only have to do with Falun Gong, but also with other non-mainstream religious groups of a completely different sort, such as the Church of Almighty God. The latter, sent a substantial delegation, representing a movement gathering several dozen millions in China, to be present at the international convention held on last 18-19 January in Florence, during which professor Introvigne closed the event with a scientific but heartfel appeal to really consider the severity of a discrimination scene in its beginning, just before it can turn into an outright discrimination.\nAcademic reveals how Western scholars are being used to spread the regime\u2019s attacks on Falun Gong\nBy Annie Wu, January 21, 2018 - Epoch Times\nThe English word \u201ccult\u201d conjures images of sinister organizations performing Jim Jones-led mass suicides. So the Chinese regime took full advantage of the power of the cult label to launch one of the most vicious hate campaigns in its history.\nIn the late summer of 1999, then-Chinese Communist Party leader Jiang Zemin had a public relations problem. Beginning on July 20 he had convulsed China with mass arrests of practitioners of the spiritual discipline Falun Gong, followed by round-the-clock propaganda, book burnings, and the purging of Party members.\nBut to the outside world, there was no clear rationale for the violence the dictator had unleashed on a peaceful group of meditators.\nFalun Gong practitioners hold wreaths with photos of people who were killed inside China for their beliefs, at a parade along 42nd Street in New York City on May 12, 2017.\nFalun Gong, with Buddhist and Taoist moral teachings based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, was introduced to the public in China in 1992. Those who took up the practice reported improvements in health, better relations with family members and colleagues, less stress, and new insight into the meaning of life. It spread rapidly by word of mouth, and a 1999 state survey estimated 70 to 100 million adherents in China.\nThe Falun Gong practice was independent of Party control, something unheard of in China. In 1997 and 1998 the Party ordered the Public Security Bureau to conduct nationwide investigations gathering evidence of the harm done by Falun Gong. On both occasions, the investigators came back empty-handed.\nIn the latter half of 1998 the formerly high-ranking official Qiao Shi organized retired cadres to do their own investigation of Falun Gong. Qiao had previously served for ten years on the Standing Committee of the Politburo\u2014the highest ranking body in the CCP\u2014and had headed the domestic security apparatus. According to his study, Falun Gong had brought \u201chundreds of benefits\u201d to Chinese society, and \u201cnot a single harm.\u201d\nBut neither Qiao\u2019s report, nor other expressions of support for Falun Gong from various official voices, persuaded Jiang not to unleash a nationwide persecution. State media and propaganda apparatuses were deployed to denounce Falun Gong, to turn public opinion against the practice and legitimize his persecution. After Jiang visited Paris in late October, the propaganda was based on labeling Falun Gong an \u201cevil cult.\u201d\nOutside of China, few knew what Falun Gong was, so Western media introduced the practice by repeating the regime\u2019s portrayal.\n18 years into the persecution, the Chinese regime is looking to use the authority of Western academics to promote the idea that Falun Gong is a \u201ccult.\u201d\nLabeling An Enemy\nIn a recent interview with The Epoch Times, Massimo Introvigne, an academic who studies religious movements and is director of the Center for Studies on New Religions based in Italy, revealed how the Chinese regime is trying to enlist Western scholars to spread hate propaganda against Falun Gong.\nIntrovigne explained that the Chinese regime\u2019s strategy begins with its labeling of Falun Gong as a \u201ccult.\u201d\nMassimo Introvigne, director of the Center for Studies on New Religions, during a recent interview with New Tang Dynasty Television.\n(Courtesy of New Tang Dynasty Television)\nIn fact, the Chinese term, \u201cxie jiao,\u201d dates back to the Ming Dynasty, Introvigne said. Western scholars often use the translation \u201cheterodox teaching,\u201d as historically, the Chinese imperial court had labeled religions as \u201cxie jiao\u201d for political reasons. In the nineteenth century, for example, Christianity was considered an agent of Western imperialism and hence labeled a \u201cxie jiao.\u201d\nThe CCP appropriated the term to attack Falun Gong. \u201cThey want to elicit sympathy from those who are afraid of cults in the West,\u201d Introvigne said.\nThis is a common tactic to legitimize the persecution of a group. \u201cThey try to justify to the domestic and international public opinion by ascribing crimes to the persecuted group,\u201d Introvigne said.\nCreating a Propaganda Strategy\nOn Oct. 25, 1999, while on a visit to Paris, Jiang granted an interview to the newspaper Le Figaro in which he first used \u201cevil cult\u201d to describe Falun Gong. The regime\u2019s CCTV broadcast Jiang\u2019s remarks.\nThe next day, the CCP mouthpiece People\u2019s Daily reprinted the interview. It was followed by more front page coverage and commentators that hammered home the \u201cevil cult\u201d message.\nOn Oct. 30, the regime\u2019s rubber stamp legislature passed the \u201cDecision on Banning Cult Organizations and Preventing and Punishing Cult Activities.\u201d The Supreme People\u2019s Court and the Supreme People\u2019s Procuratorate subsequently issued an \u201cexplanation\u201d of the new law, stipulating that those who engage in \u201cespecially serious\u201d acts in cult organizations would be subject to a minimum of seven years imprisonment and up to life imprisonment or death. The law targeted Falun Gong practitioners, although Falun Gong is not mentioned by name in the legislation.\nWith the help of Le Figaro, Jiang had in a few short days manufactured a rationale for his persecution of Falun Gong and created a legal strategy to justify it.\nIntrovigne explained that for religions and faith systems to exist under the Chinese Communist regime, they must succumb to its control. Because Falun Gong does not, the regime has targeted it. \u201cThe regime only accepts sinicized religions,\u201d he said. \u201cFor religions to be sinicized means to accept the guidance of the CCP.\u201d\nHe gave the examples of the Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association and the Three-Self Patriotic Movement, Party-controlled organizations for Catholics and Protestants, with leaders appointed by the Party. Meanwhile, Christians who attend underground churches are routinely harassed and persecuted.\nIn Nov. 2000, Jiang took a step further by establishing the China Anti-Cult Association. Operating in all provinces, the association would promulgate the propaganda domestically and abroad. The Association began organizing academic conferences to defame Falun Gong.\nIts latest tactic, as Introvigne has been witness to, is \u201cto recruit scholars to confirm stories and the narrative of Falun Gong from the Chinese Communist regime.\u201d That comes in the form of publishing academic papers and holding conferences for Chinese and Western scholars alike. The regime wants the latter on record pushing the CCP\u2019s version of the story, or, to be able to represent the Western scholars as taking the Party\u2019s line, even if they didn\u2019t.\nFor example, a group of Western scholars were invited to speak at a forum held by Wuhan University\u2019s Center for Studies of International Pseudo-Religion Questions last month. Xinhua, the regime\u2019s mouthpiece news agency, subsequently published an article on Dec. 3 saying that the scholars \u201cagreed that Falun Gong is a cult that spreads rumors to defame China.\u201d\nOne of the invited speakers, Michael Kropveld, said the Xinhua article severely misrepresented his comments, as well as the content of the conference. \u201cIt was in no way anything I stated or said while I spoke or when I talked to anybody involved,\u201d he told The Epoch Times. Kropveld, who is executive director of Info-Cult, a Canada-based organization that studies religious minority groups, said he had read his presentation word for word, which he has published onto his organization\u2019s website.\nHis presentation mainly sought to analyze different definitions of \u201ccult\u201d and the results of a survey he conducted with nonprofits, cult research groups, and social service and government agencies to understand the nature of public inquiries about Falun Gong.\nKropveld said the Xinhua article \u201cwas a poor recollection of what was actually said there.\u201d\nHowever, there have also been instances of Western scholars endorsing the propaganda. The nonprofit research organization, World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong, has documented how James R. Lewis, employed at the University of Troms\u00f8, The Arctic University of Norway, has published academic work defaming Falun Gong. He is listed on Kaiwind, a long-running anti-Falun Gong propaganda website set up by the 610 office\u2014a Party organization specially created to carry out the persecution\u2014as an expert on cults. Lewis has also hosted and attended international conferences on cults, some with scholars from Wuhan University, spreading anti-Falun Gong rhetoric.\nIntrovigne himself attended a conference on \u201canti-cult scholarly exchange\u201d held in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province in June 2017, and was surprised to learn the content of the meeting. He and the scholars present disagreed with the statements made by Chinese scholars and was shocked at the state media articles that falsely reported on the details.\nIntrovigne at the Zhengzhou conference on cults. (Screenshot via Zhengzhou Anti-Cult Association website)\nIntrovigne said that the CCP has perpetuated the defamatory claims about Falun Gong to such a degree that some Western academics have believed them. \u201cIt is unfortunate for the cause of human rights,\u201d he said.\nA Call for Academic Integrity\nThere are real consequences to academics perpetuating the CCP\u2019s defamatory information, Introvigne believes.\n\u201cWhat narrative will prevail? If the CCP manages to have their narrative of bad cults threatening the population prevail, they will probably continue the persecution and feel very much justified in doing it,\u201d he said.\nOn the other hand, if the majority of scholars research carefully and realize the extent of the regime\u2019s propaganda, the CCP will feel like they can no longer justify the persecution. \u201cThey will probably have to slow down the persecution or even accept that the persecution is too expensive from the point of view of their international image.\u201d\nIntrovigne made parallels between the Chinese regime\u2019s tactics and the Soviet Union\u2019s subversion strategies, paying journalists, academics, and members of the church leadership to disseminate false propaganda.\nHe urged academics to study Falun Gong thoroughly from different perspectives, not solely studying China\u2019s treatment of practitioners\u2014\u201chow Falun Gong became so successful in a few years, why people join Falun Gong, how Falun Gong changed their health and happiness.\u201d\nYang Lixin contributed to this report.\nSource: Epoch Times",

        "raw_content": "ArticlesNewsTyrannyVideos\n2 Years Before Ferguson: Tanks and Heavily Armored Personnel Carriers Roll Through NORTH St Louis\nFor those who are unaware, Ferguson is basically a suburb in North St. Louis.\nFor anyone who has ever lived in a large city, you will understand that Ferguson is basically part of St. Louis, but with its own unique identity. After this week, that identity is something that Ferguson might not want to claim.\nIn January of 2013, I wrote an article called \"Blackhawks, Tanks, DHS Ammo Containers and Litmus Tests?\"\nThat article has been on my mind all week.\nBecause even though I have written about the movement of military equipment many times in the last two years, that is the only time I have ever written about heavily armored vehicles actually rolling through the streets of an American city. I had to go back and look at the article and video because I was curious. Though the local news report did not specifically mention Ferguson, it did mention that the military vehicles were moving through North St. Louis. Here is the video which was shot in 2012:\nDoes this mean anything? I don't know.\nI understand that the news report makes it sound like a driver's education class for tank operators. I also know that the real story and the story we are given are not always the same. I just can't understand why they would risk an accident in a major city when it has been revealed that our military has its own replica cities for training. Why can't they practice in Virginia rather than risk an accident with civilians involved?\nIt is a legitimate question.\nWe have certainly heard plenty of rumors and even had one congressman call for military presence. For those who may have missed it, Representative John Lewis has called for martial law in Ferguson.\nThe question in my mind is if this 2012 \"drill\" or \"training\" has anything to do with what we see now. It might seem like a stretch to say that, however\u2026\nFor anyone who lives in San Francisco, Dallas, Chicago, Boston or Miami\u2026\nOr any other large city in America\u2026\nWhen was the last time you saw military tanks and heavily armored vehicles rolling through your streets?\nWhy the North side and not the South side for these drills?\nEarlier in the week, Jerome Corsi revealed that the Northern part of St. Louis has actually been deemed by the French government as an unsafe place to visit. Could it be that our government has been waiting for something to happen there?\nI can't totally dismiss that they were training for something that was specifically in North St. Louis. If that is the case, then we may be far from done in Ferguson. Early morning news reports seem to indicate that tensions started to rise again last night after they seemed to be calming.\nAs for 2012\u2026\nTags: Ferguson\nNext post Why Was Ebola-Infected Patrick Sawyer Cleared for Travel?\nPrevious post Debunking the Myth: Study Reveals Christians Far Less Likely to Divorce",

        "title": "Why white parents need to talk to their children about race \u2013 Frida Be Mighty",
        "raw_content": "Why white parents need to talk to their children about race\nWhite parents need to talk to their children about race. This topic has been on my mind a lot recently since reading about the brutal murder of black teenager Nia Wilson by a white man, and so I wanted to write about it, not only because I hope it will be useful for some of you, but as a reminder to myself.\nBefore I go on, I want to preface the rest of this post by acknowledging my huge privilege. White privilege, yes, but so much else too \u2013 the privilege of being able bodied, cis, middle class, heterosexual, financially secure, educated\u2026 the list goes on. I believe that my privilege doesn\u2019t mean that I should shy away from talking about inequality for fear of \u201cgetting it wrong\u201d or saying something imperfect. That privilege means I have a responsibility to talk about inequality, to fight against it. I do not take for granted the fact that I have a voice, a platform to share on, and an audience to listen to what I have to say, something that many, many people over the world do not have. I believe having a voice comes with a responsibility to use it to do good, even if that doesn\u2019t always feel comfortable (and in fact that discomfort is just another form of privilege manifesting itself).\nUnsure if white privilege applies to you? Take a look at this checklist. I scored 26/26. It is a sobering reminder that if, like me, you are white, we have a hell of a lot of work to do to try and address the inexcusable, dangerous inequality that is so pervasive in our societies. Part of this work is explicitly talking to our children about race from a young age.\nWhy we need to talk to our children about race\nAs white parents, we have the immense privilege of not being forced by society to talk to our children about race from a young age (a privilege not shared by many people of colour who will have to explain to their young children about racism and its very real effects on their lives). But that doesn\u2019t mean that we shouldn\u2019t do it anyway.\nIt is often believed that because (a) racism is bad, it follows that (b) we should therefore teach our children to be \u201ccolour-blind\u201d and not talk to them about race, raising them to view everyone as equal rather than reinforcing differences in skin colour. A lovely idea. The problem? This doesn\u2019t work.\nIgnoring race creates silence around racism, and teaches children that they don\u2019t have to think about race (or anything else that makes them feel uncomfortable). This further feeds into a society where white experience is seen as the only one and the experience of others and the prejudices they face is ignored at best, and reinforced at worst. Telling our children that skin colour doesn\u2019t matter is a luxury \u2013 and more than a luxury, it is a lie. We live in a world where people are killed, abused and oppressed on a daily basis solely because of their skin colour. To say colour doesn\u2019t matter is dangerous and untrue, and is very different to teaching that colour shouldn\u2019t matter.\nThis line of thinking \u2013 that we can teach children to be colour-blind \u2013 is also based on the assumption that children don\u2019t \u201csee\u201d colour unless it is pointed out to them. But this isn\u2019t true. Research shows that young children are developmentally prone to in-group favouritism, ie. they like people more if they identify them as closely resembling themselves, and this is thought to develop between ages 2.5-5. We don\u2019t have to label differences for them to be visible to children (in fact, research has shown that children notice skin colour differences as early as six months), and children will use differences they see from early on to make judgements about others. This means we need to explicitly talk about race with children (as well as other differences too) and teach them that someone\u2019s skin being a different colour doesn\u2019t make them a worse person. Research shows compellingly that when parents talk openly about race (not just using abstract phrases like \u201cwe\u2019re all equal\u201d), children\u2019s attitudes to race improves.\nA recurring theme in studies and articles on this subject is that parents are for the most part very comfortable talking to even very young children about gender, challenging sexist stereotypes and calling out unfair behaviour or treatment. We need to do the same for race and racism \u2013 and we need to do it often.\nWe need to tell our children that people of all colours can be doctors if the only doctors they see are white. We need to point out explicitly that children have all different skin colours, but they often like doing the same things. We need to talk about different cultures and point out the things we share as well as the things that make us unique. We need to tell our children that it is never OK to exclude someone or treat them differently or be unkind to them because they look different to us. And we need to do this every day.\nAs our children get older, we need to actively talk to them about racism, sharing real-life examples both past and present (there are many books out there which can support these conversations), and we need to invite them to reflect on what they are learning. This will not feel comfortable. Learning about the individual and systemic violence inflicted on people because of their skin colour is upsetting, but that is all the more reason to stand up and do what we can to try and stop it. We cannot ignore that, as white people, we are complicit in this violence. It\u2019s not enough to just be \u201cnot a racist\u201d. We need to own up to our history and the racism that is all around us, and bring our children on this journey with us.\nLeft: The Barefoot Book of Children Top: Can You Say Peace? Bottom: Hats of Faith\nWhilst it\u2019s vitally important to have these conversations with our children, it\u2019s not enough to have them in isolation. We can also:\nRead books to our children that have characters with a diverse range of skin colours. This is something I am trying to rectify at the moment in our home, as I am aware that so many of Frida\u2019s books are focused on white characters. If you have any recommendations for more diverse books, please do share them \u2013 they will be gratefully received. Here is a list of books that specifically talk about racism, but as parents we can challenge stereotypes we come across in any books we read.\nBe mindful of the media our children consume. If they watch TV or play games, what characters are being featured? What stereotypes are being played out?\nTake a look at our children\u2019s toys. Do they reflect diversity? Again, this is something I would like to address in our home; all of Frida\u2019s dolls are white.\nEducate ourselves as parents. Read books and articles and blogs written by people of colour, listen to podcasts addressing systemic racism, follow diverse voices on social media.\nChallenge racism and racist attitudes when we see them, both in front of our children and when they are not around. If we want to raise children who will stand up in the face of injustice, we need to do this ourselves, even if it feels uncomfortable.\nDonate to social justice causes. Words matter, but so does action. Money is often the thing that has the most immediate impact, funding important work being done on the ground to address the causes of inequality and supporting the victims of it.\nI have said before that I strongly believe that peaceful parenting can be a radical act, and a powerful force for social change. As white parents we have a lot of work to do, and that can feel overwhelming. But we have to start somewhere, and talking to our children about race is a vital place to start.\nThe most compelling explanation of why white parents need to talk to their children about race I have found is a chapter in the book Nurtureshock: Why Everything We Thought About Children is Wrong (which I strongly recommend getting hold of even if just to read that part, although it\u2019s a brilliant read all the way through) as it is packed with hard evidence \u2013 useful if you need help to convince your partner, child care provider, school or friends.\nThis article on Medium is excellent and really worth reading as is this one. I also really like this article and this one.\nThis website has a great list of further resources for talking about racism with children.\nIf you have any feedback or comments on this post, then I am all ears and welcome the conversation.\nPosted in GENTLE PARENTING and Tagged featured parenting for social change peaceful parenting racism talking to children about race\nPrevious article3-4 yearsMagnetic Tiles\nNext articleMEET THE MOTHERMeet the Mother: Beth Wood\n5 replies on \u201cWhy white parents need to talk to their children about race\u201d\nAnother thing I think is important is exposing children to other neighborhoods, in particular if we live in an bubble of privelege. I live in Chicago and had to take to my son to an emergency dental appointment at on Christmas Eve at the only clinic I could find open and it happened to be on the south side ( which is predominately poor and black and is in the news seemingly exclusively for gang violence ). Well we went there and all the houses were decorated beautifully for Christmas. I was blown away. It didn\u2019t look anything like I\u2019d imagined. And it wasn\u2019t scary. But I had all these stereotypes built up in my head and I was expecting a war zone full of run down houses. I was so wrong through. It also made me realize how uncomfortable it is to be the only person of your race. It felt like oh I don\u2019t belong here and that is the life of many many many people of color always in pretty much all the spaces I inhabit. So I think it\u2019s also so important for kids to get those real life experiences early on and not just via books.\ni am thankful that my small town library regularly stocks very diverse books with a variety of characters. there are a lot of children\u2019s books available now that address race or simply have strong characters of color. i always raid the \u201cnew books\u201d area of the library and have found so many!\nlast night i watched \u201cthe black panther\u201d with my older boys. we really enjoyed it, & i wanted to start a conversation. but i hesitated, because i wanted to let them enjoy the movie just as it is without drawing attention to the controversy it created amid racists and why it is an important movie. i plan to have a conversation about it in the near future however. (we have had similar conversations about films featuring strong women & about the new doctor who being a woman & the controversy that this caused amid sexists.)\nShaynah Ali says:\nThank you for writing this blog post and addressing the issues white people shy away from. Indeed it is a topic that a lot of people feel uncomfortable discussing unsure of the words to use to discuss a time where black people faced such injustice and hatred. I myself am a black Muslim woman which definitely faces some elements of prejudice on a daily basis. Your blog will definitely open up a much needed debate and encourage others to admit to white privilege. It\u2019s definitely important to raise children who are aware and have the correct information regarding history not in a way that sugar coats a harsh reality. My father grew up in a time of riots and prejudice being called a monkey and thrown Bananas! It\u2019s crazy when you actually reflect on a time where society was like this and this was a norm. We must do everything to ensure our children are raised with values and given the correct upbringing which values the diversity of society and embraces it.\nHello, I was born in Chicago and I\u2019m white. I had a pretty diverse childhood, growing up in a south suburb that is 83% black. I have many stories to tell, if anyone is interested.\nThis post was inspired by a tragic killing by a white man in the Bay Area who was homeless, a convicted felon on parole and likely still on drugs. I would not call this a \u201ctypical white person\u201d. Seriously, I pray for the souls of the poor victims of this crime and the perpetrator.\nMeanwhile, in my hometown of Chicago, there were 67 people shot, and 14 killed this last weekend. I haven\u2019t seen statistics, but if the past holds true all of the victims and assailants were black.\nDoes anyone care about these victims? Why is it that so many black people are killed and maimed without a single word from this blog? Don\u2019t you care at all about them?\nOr is it because white people were not involved? It makes my blood boil that white people can blog about this and not give a whit about black people dying because there are no white people involved. Now THATS what I call \u201cwhite privilege\u201d.\nPingback: 158. READ.LOOK.THINK. \u2013 Jessica Stanley.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Categories > Identity > Biometrics and Identity Management\nYour fingerprints, your iris, even the shape of your ear are unique and can be used to identify you. But beyond their unique properties, they contain no information about you \u2013 who you are, what groups you belong to, what you have been give access to. Biometrics are best used to strengthen existing methods of identity management.\nWhat exactly is identity?\nIdentity is not a quality that exists for an individual. If you are alone on a desert island, no one is there to identify you. Identity is something that exists between two or more people. Identity gives the group a way of recognizing an individual as a member and authorizing the privileges offered you by membership in that group. For example, a bankcard gives you privileges to access your bank account. A passport identifies you as a citizen of a specific country and gives you the privilege to cross certain borders while traveling.\nThere are three primary ways that people identify themselves. Through the use of credentials, such as passports, badges, or ID cards; with a shared secret such as a password or PIN number; and by biometrics, which provide a way to identify a person by sensing a unique physical property such as a face, a voice, hand geometry, retinal or iris patterns and fingerprints.\nEach method has its drawbacks. For biometrics to work, a person must be enrolled in a group. A fingerprint is useless if it\u2019s not pre-associated with a group. On the other hand, a fingerprint cannot be lost. In the case of a shared secret, if that secret is learned by a third party, the users and the issuer may not be aware of it. If credentials are lost, the owner is usually aware of the fact, but unable to prove identity.\nThere are two main approaches to biometric security: identification and verification. In the case of identification, there is typically no credential involved. A biometric identification system delegates to a machine, such as a fingerprint reader, the process of identifying an individual. A biometric template is stored in a central database. In order to identify a person, a scan is taken and a search is conducted comparing the current scan to all templates in the database. A match not only verifies membership but also identifies the person.\nVerification, however, is done in tandem with credentials. If an individual possesses the appropriate credential they are considered to be a group member, but a biometric identifier is used to confirm that individual is the rightful holder of that credential. A biometric template is stored on a credential such as a passport or company badge. When an identity is to be verified, a scan is taken and compared to the stored template to verify a match. This method is considered to be more accurate and faster than identification. It also carries a higher level of security. The biometric information is stored on the credential, not in a central database. The biometric identifier is not used as a key; it is used to reinforce the credential, which is the actual key. This not only provides two levels of security, this can work much more quickly because the biometric identifier is not being referenced against a central database, just against the template stored in the credential.\nThere is a trade-off between convenience and security. Biometrics are very convenient, but less secure. Fingerprint recognition is best suited for use with locks, but because of its 3% error rate, it is too weak to be used as a single guard. The use of fingerprint recognition in tandem with a card reader has proveen to be successful. The use of biometrics in such a solution increases the strength of the card reader.",

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s Our Plan If We Meet Aliens\nFinding ET is just the first step.\nAbby NormanFebruary 10th 2017\n/ Drake Equation\n/ Extraterrestrials\n/Drake Equation\n/Extraterrestrials\nFor most of human history we\u2019ve looked at the stars and wondered if there\u2019s life beyond our galaxy. As technology has rapidly advanced, it feels possible that even our more esoteric questions about aliens could be one day be answered. The real question is: are we ready for the implications of those answers?\nWhile science fiction narratives often rely on the \u201cgovernment denies knowledge\u201d trope, several groups around the world have invested time, effort, and resources into developing scientific protocols for assessing the probability of alien life. Of course, no nation in the world has formally adopted them\u2026but they do exist.\nThe Drake Equation, proposed by an astronomer for which it was named in 1961, essentially provides a template that mathematicians could use to determine the likelihood that life exists elsewhere in the universe. Drake chose seven variables to include, such as \u201cthe formation rate of stars suitable for developing intelligent life.\u201d The problem is science currently has no firm data for any of those variables. Therefore, attempting to actually calculate a probability from the equation (which is: N = R* \u2022 fp \u2022 ne \u2022 fl \u2022 fi \u2022 fc \u2022 L) provides only a hypothetical estimate.\nIf Aliens Do Exist, Are We Ready To Meet Them?\nLet\u2019s say that technological advances give us the ability to fill in the variables in The Drake Equation. Scientists then not only figure out the probability of extraterrestrial life is high, but that an alien visitation is imminent. What would happen next?\nThe Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) League has an abundant list of protocols concerning contact with life on other planets, including something called The Rio Scale. The scale is concerned with three variables: the phenomenon itself, how it was discovered, and how far away it is, to provide an objective indicator of the events\u2019 credence. In other words, the Rio Scale is a decent metric for sussing out alien hoaxes. This isn\u2019t an insignificant application, either: as the video below points out, if the media reported that aliens had communicated with us before scientists had all the facts, something akin to mass panic would probably ensue.\nThe Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies \u2014 otherwise known as simply The Outer Space Treaty \u2014 actually states that the Secretary-General of the United Nations be the one to formally communicate such a finding, having presumably received the information through proper channels.\nOf course, this is all still largely hypothetical. Much of what we think we know about aliens comes not from hard evidence, but our fictional renderings of them and their interactions with us. We can\u2019t know for sure what to expect if, and when, aliens make contact, but our attempts to prepare give us fascinating insight into our own hopes and fears. When we look to the sky we may not get the answers we\u2019ve been looking for about aliens, but we\u2019re likely to find answers about ourselves we didn\u2019t even know we were looking for.\nCould Humans Ever Really Reach Alien Stars?\nThis Newly Rediscovered Exoplanet Could Support Life\nResearch Shows How Space Travel Affects Humans\nNASA Just Released the Top Designs for Our Future Martian Homes\nThe First Exoplanet Was Discovered 25 Years Ago Today",

In every conflict between Muslims and every country they are agitating against or actively fighting, the assumption is that they are the victims. It is absurd. Why is there no call to investigate allegations of atrocities committed by the Rohingya Muslims against the Burmese?\nBosnia redux.\nFor years, I have been documenting the atrocities perpetrated by Muslims against the Buddhists in Myanmar.\nStanding next to the country\u2019s civilian leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, Mr. Tillerson spoke forcefully about \u201ccredible reports of widespread atrocities committed by [Burma\u2019s] security forces\u201d against the Rohingya ethnic minority. He said the campaign, which has driven more than 600,000 people across the border to Bangladesh, \u201chas a number of characteristics of certainly crimes against humanity.\u201d\nMr. Tillerson repeatedly called for a \u201ccredible\u201d and \u201cindependent\u201d investigation, said that those guilty of abuses should be held accountable, and indicated that U.S. sanctions against involved individuals would be appropriate. He also called on the government to allow the voluntary return of the Rohingya and provide them with \u201ca transparent and fully voluntary path to citizenship,\u201d which most lack. \u201cMyanmar\u2019s response to this crisis,\u201d he said, using the name for the country favored by the regime, \u201cis critical to determining the success of its transition to a more democratic society.\u201d\nSecretary Tillerson Signals Shift In U.S. Policy Toward Burma\nNovember 21, 2017, Forbes, (thanks to Creeping):\nSecretary of State Rex Tillerson just concluded a visit to Burma where he called upon the government to investigate allegations of atrocities committed by the Burmese military against the Rohingya.\nClose to 600,000 Burmese Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh after the military retaliated for attacks on its security outposts on August 25. The UN calls the retaliation a textbook case of ethnic cleansing.\nTillerson also urged Burma to implement the recommendations made by the Kofi Annan Commission. The commission laid out a number of steps to facilitate reconciliation between Burma\u2019s Muslim minority Rohingya and its Buddhist majority.\nThe Secretary paired these calls with the announcement that the U.S. will increase humanitarian assistance by an additional $47 million. This is the second increase in assistance announced since the crisis began. U.S. aid to alleviate the crisis will now total more than $150 million for 2017.\nTillerson\u2019s Burma visit came on the heels of President Trump\u2019s 12-day tour through Asia. The presidential trip reaffirmed longstanding alliance relationships and clearly signaled that the administration views Asia as critical to U.S. security.\nRelated: \u2018We are going to kill you\u2019: Villagers in Burma recount jihad violence by Rohingya Muslims\nRohingyas threat to national security, they have link with Jihad: Hindu leader\n86 Hindus killed in Rohingya jihad massacres, 200 Hindu families flee Myanmar",

        "raw_content": "Cancer is scary. You know what\u2019s scarier? Cancer in your balls. It may not feel like you hear about it too often, but over 9,000 new cases of testicular cancer will be diagnosed this year. The good news is that most things related to testicular cancer are fairly straightforward. Symptoms? Easy to notice. The treatment? Unfortunate, but simplistic in nature. You don\u2019t really start to ask too many questions until you get to the category of After Effects.\nBeing a man, there is of course going to be a large amount of concern surrounding the health and strength of your \u201cequipment\u201d after the treatment is over. When can I have sex? Will it be difficult to get erections? Will I be able to have kids? These are all important things to know when you\u2019re faced with battling testicular cancer. We\u2019re going to take a look at all of those, but first let\u2019s do a quick recap of testicular cancer symptoms, what to look for, how to find it, and how to treat it.\nTesticular Cancer Symptomss\nBy the time you\u2019re 15 years old, you probably have have a really good idea of what your balls feel like. When it comes to testicular cancer symptoms, this familiarity is nothing but a benefit. The majority of early symptoms will manifest as a change or abnormality in your testicles or scrotum. Here are some of the most common symptoms of testicular cancer:\nA lump in one of your testicles\nA feeling of heaviness in the scrotum area\nA sudden ache or pain in your testicle, scrotum, or groin\nA collection of liquid in the scrotum\nAdvanced stages of the disease can sometimes manifest in additional symptoms like lower back pain, shortness of breath, and pain in the abdomen. It is important to note that many of these could be symptoms of issues other than testicular cancer, so either way it\u2019s a good idea to see a doctor immediately if you\u2019re noticing any changes or discomfort.\nTesticular cancer is one of the most treatable cancers around. TC has a success rate of 96-99%, as long as it is found early and treated quickly. Some even more positive news; the main symptom is a lump in your testicle which is usually very noticeable! A change like that is usually pretty easy to find, but if you want to make sure you\u2019re not missing anything, you should perform regular self-checks. These are simple, non-invasive examinations that will take up less than 5 minutes of your post shower routine.\nHere\u2019s how to do a successful self-examination:\nIt\u2019s best to examine yourself after a warm shower, so that your scrotum is relaxed.\nLook for any swelling in your scrotum\nPlace your middle and index fingers on the bottom of your testicle with your thumb on top.\nGently, but firmly, roll the testicle between your fingers and your thumb, feeling for any lumps or abnormalities.\nRepeat this with your other testicle, looking for irregularities.\nMake sure to locate your epididymis, which is a collection of tissue at the base of each testicle, so that you won\u2019t mistake this for a lump.\nDon\u2019t pretend like you don\u2019t play with your balls at least once a day anyway. Performing this self-exam just gives you a reason!\nThe most common treatment of testicular cancer is the removal of the affected testicle. Now that may not sound extremely fun, but if it\u2019s between that and having it spread any further upward, the choice is clear. Depending on the stage and severity of your diagnosis, the surgery can be followed up with additional radiation or chemotherapy. Only 5% of men are found to have cancer in both of their testicles. This, unfortunately, will require both testicles to be removed.\nSo that\u2019s what you need to know. Now let\u2019s get into what you want to know. How does Testicular Cancer affect your sexual health?\nIt goes without saying that you\u2019ll have considerable interest in knowing the future of your sex life in the wake of testicular cancer. A lot of this can depend on your specific diagnosis, and in many cases there are ways to either avoid, or counteract the negative effects.\nDoes Testicular Cancer Affect Your Sex Drive?\nWith only one testicle, will you even still want to have sex? The answer, fortunately, is yes! Of course all surgeries require a varying amount of recovery time but in this case, once you\u2019re back on your feet, you should be good to go. Most of the time, the removal of one testicle will not diminish sex drive, as it still produces more than enough testosterone to get you in the mood.\nHowever, if you are one of the 5% of men who needs to have both testicles removed, then you will not be able to produce your own testosterone. Therefore, your libido will be severely reduced. However, there is such a thing as Testosterone Replacement Therapy which can be a great way to regain sex drive and feel like yourself again.\nEvery man\u2019s favorite topic, right? Who doesn\u2019t love talking about erectile dysfunction? Well the good news here is that having a testicle removed does not alone result in an inability to get hard. However, receiving a diagnosis of testicular cancer then undergoing the subsequent surgery can cause a variety of mental and emotional effects including feelings of anxiety, isolation, and loss of masculinity. These feelings can often, and understandably, result in erectile dysfunction.\nCheck out our article on how to overcome psychological ED.\nThis is a big one. Since testicular cancer, if the most commonly diagnosed cancer in males between ages 15-44, there\u2019s a good chance that those who have it will still be hoping to father children in the future.\nAs with sex drive and erectile dysfunction, having only one testicle removed will not cause an issue with your fertility. In the unlikely event that you need to have both removed, infertility is unfortunately guaranteed. If your treatment involves radiation therapy, your fertility may be temporarily affected, as any damage from radiation usually goes away after a few months. Although it is usually recommended that men do not attempt to father a child until a year after their last radiation treatment, just to ensure the health of the resulting child.\nIf you want to make sure you\u2019re preserving your fertility, it\u2019s a good idea to utilize a sperm-bank prior to undergoing any treatment or surgery.\nTesticular cancer is a fight many men are able to win. But that doesn\u2019t make it an easy one. The best way to beat testicular cancer is to stay informed. Arm yourself with these facts and perform self-checks once a month in order to make sure you\u2019re staying ahead of the game.\nAbout the author Jack Burke\nHims is a men\u2019s wellness brand built by real guys and backed by real science.

        "raw_content": "February is coming! We all know what that means \u2013 makeup, costumes, masks, role playing, parades and lots of public street partying. If you\u2019re a fan of this festive season (well, who isn\u2019t?) and you think that your city simply doesn\u2019t give enough attention to this period, check out where are the best costumed parties in Europe. We provide you the top cities where a carnival is celebrated as it supposed to be, with lots of food, music and dancing. Europe may never have a carnival as big as in Rio de Janeiro, but it surely can have as good one as that!\nEurope\u2019s most popular street carnival in Venice is centered on the Piazza San Marco. The festival begins two Saturdays before Ash Wednesday, finishing on Fat Tuesday and all it takes for you to be a part of it is a one simple mask. This is your chance to be a Phantom of the Opera or a medieval princess for 12 days without getting strange looks. Venetians celebrate their masked festival since the 15th century and it has an important place in their calendar. Join their party and enjoy the masked procession circulating through the streets, musical and theatrical performances and the decorated Venetian gondolas and boats carrying the masked passengers down the Grand Canal.\nThere is not a single carnival article without mentioning the celebration in Cologne. Germany\u2019s fourth biggest city is well-known for its carnivals since the early ages. In 1823 Cologne organized its first Rosenmontag (Rose Monday) and the rest is all history. Over the years traditions and customs emerged so today people take part in indoor celebrations with balls and performances and in street parade, which culminates on Rose Monday. The nine Cologne Carnival Corps are one of the biggest attractions of the carnival because they mock Prussian military tradition. This colorful, joyous festival attracts more than a million visitors each year all hoping to celebrate until the Crazy Days, the end and the climax of the carnival.\nHeld mid-January to mid-February each year, the carnival of Santa Cruz is a long awaited costumed party since the preparation begin months before. Although carnivals are celebrated on all seven Canary islands, this one is by far the most popular and the most visited one. The carnival begins with the election of the carnival\u2019s queen, which is followed by colorful dancing parades throughout the streets. The dancers belong to Samba dancing schools and they compete for the first place, each group in different costumes. Make sure not to miss the Mogollones, the Carnival parties that go on all night long. The peak of the festival happens on the third day when thousands of visitors gather on the local stadium and enjoy the dancing choreographies and colorful scenery.\nAmong other carnivals, the one in Croatia\u2019s third biggest city is considered to be a \u2018baby\u2019 since it became acknowledged only about 30 years ago, although it has a hundred-year-long tradition. However, Rijeka makes up for it every year with wide range of costumes, colours, masks and spectacles. The city\u2019s carnival has some of its own traditions that you won\u2019t be able to see anywhere else. Let\u2019s take Zvoncari for instance, which is a group of men dressed up as animals ringing bells to ward off the evil spirits of winter. On the final day of the parade, over 100,000 spectators enjoy in the performances of more than 10,000 participants. The carnival has a huge media coverage so you can watch it online, read about it in the newspapers or simply check out on the best parts of the parade on the TV.\nThe Nice carnival is one of the most popular and biggest events organized on the French Riviera which attracts more than one million visitors each year. It takes place in mid-February for two weeks and gives you a perfect opportunity to experience Nice and French Riviera which in that period has sunnier and better wheather than the rest of France. The carnival has been run since the medieval times. One of the carnival\u2019s traditions is that the king officiates over the carnival on the Place Mass\u00e9na during the whole time of the festivities. Later, on the final night of the event, the king is put out on the sea in a little boat and burned before the traditional fireworks starts. Another part of the festival is the Flower Parade introduced in the 19th century as a simple exchange the flowers between the participants of the parade.\nThe biggest inside-the-country opponent of Cologne carnival is the celebration in Dusseldorf. Every visitor surely forgets their troubles when d\u2019r Zog k\u00fctt passes by. It is made of 60-70 wagons fantastically decorated, with many performers, bands, dancers or simple persons wearing amazing costumes. A 5 km parade doubles in length after it starts marching through the narrow Dusseldorf screams inviting everyone to join and sing along. The thing that makes it different from the other carnivals is the date when it takes place. When most of the carnivals are held throughout February, this one starts the 11th of November at 11:11 hrs. However, sometimes the date changes, so keep yourself updated by checking out their official website.\nThe carnival of Binche has a special place among the masked festivals in the world. It is one of the most celebrated events in the entire country and for its long tradition and originality it has been proclaimed as a \u2019Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity\u2019 by UNESCO in 2003. The celebration begins in February on Shrove Sunday when masked peasants, harlequins, clowns, phantoms and others walk throughout the city center accompanied by drums, viola and similar musical instruments. The costumes get inspired each year by current events, political affairs or movie characters. The most important part of the festival is Mardi Gras or Shrove Tuesday when all the participants of the parade get up at 4:00 a.m. to get ready for the procession. This carnival is a perfect way to discover a unique Belgian folklore, but also to experience Belgium champagne and oysters while dancing to their traditional music.\nIf you\u2019re interested in how to reach some of these spectacular places and become a part of Europe\u2019s best carnivals, check out our offers on GetByBus.\nBest Shopping in Europe\nBuses Island Vis",

        "raw_content": "Mr Chidambaram, it\u2019s time to walk the talk (Sunday Guardian)\nLGBT people during a protest against Supreme Court\u2019s verdict on Section 377 of IPC, in Bhubaneswar on Friday. PTI\nhe best news of the month is that Palaniappan Chidambaram has finally woken up to the need to do away with the \"medieval and colonial\" laws that so infest the system of justice in this country. These comments were made after Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi expressed dismay at Justices Singhvi and Mukhopadhyaya's touching loyalty to Victorian values. For Chidambaram has, along with Kapil Sibal, been responsible for criminalising vast swathes of human behaviour since 2004. The Chidambaram-Sibal duo has ensured that a slew of fresh legislation and regulations have come into force, that are so diffuse in their meaning that almost any action can be deemed sufficiently criminal to send an individual to prison. Chidambaram in particular has ensured that prison gets made the default option for a slew of tax-related actions on the part of the private citizen. Discretion given to the official has increased in proportion to the increase in punishments prescribed. Small wonder that the quantum of bribes has gone up significantly during the past nine years. Of course, the domestic economy gets very little benefit from such unrecorded income, as since 1998, much of the black money collected as bribes \u2014 even within India \u2014 gets sent abroad, to Dubai, London and Singapore, amongst other destinations. It has taken a long time for Chidambaram to realise the harm he has done to the future of India by seeking to perpetuate and deepen a medieval code of \"justice\", intended by its British framers to be a way of ensuring that the people of India remain in chains, unable \u2014 by the force of law \u2014 to develop their skills and improve their lives, save by the express consent of one government agency or the other.\nIndia is unique in having a modern Constitution that co-exists without challenge alongside an archaic set of laws, including the criminal and police codes. These belong to the 19th century and are clearly intended to hold down rather than liberate the citizen. It is a mystery as to how the IPC, the CrPC as well as the overwhelming bulk of existing laws and regulations in the country can get reconciled with Articles 14, 15 and 21 of the Constitution of India, which together guarantee equality before the law, prohibits discrimination on grounds of race, sex, caste, location or faith, and the protection of life and liberty. If a Hindu sets up a school, that becomes subject to the Right to Education Act, which seeks to make up for the wilful failure of the state to ensure a proper school education for the poor by leeching onto the private sector. However, a school set up by a member of the minority community gets exempted from the RTE's far-reaching provisions. A temple can be taken over by the government at a whim, and often are, although a church or a mosque is exempt from such control. In Kerala, the Guruvayur temple near Thrissur gets far more visits by devotees (and far more gifts of gold and cash) than the Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple in Trivandrum, yet the treasure of the latter is several hundred times greater than that of Guruvayur, or indeed, tens of times greater than that of Tirupati, which witnesses a flood of gifts from devotees each hour. Unsurprisingly, there is a clamour for state takeover of the Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple, so that over time, it too can become as bereft of its treasures as those temples under state control have become. The fact that the colonial-era discrimination against temples was not overturned during the six years that the NDA ruled is partly why the Vajpayee period is seen by many as a Congress Lite regime, rather than a genuine alternative to Nehruvian policies.\nBy its verdict on the gay rights issue, the Supreme Court has once again illustrated the unnatural adherence of post-Independence India to Victorian codes that have seemingly been set in stone for an eternity. Already an object of pity on the world stage, the SC judgement re-criminalising a huge swathe of human sexual behaviour has made this country a laughing stock. Now once again, the police and self-appointed moral policemen will get licence to peek into bedrooms and swagger into parks, to \"enforce the law\". The visit of King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia to India in 2005 gave a fillip to ties between two countries that have not always been the best of allies. However, in an effort to make up for lost time, it would appear that institutions in India are on course to ensure that the legal system in India remains chained to what the country's former British masters wanted it to be, which is a system very like what is in vogue to this day in Saudi Arabia. That is, unless Chidambaram acts on his \"Born Again\" commitment to human dignity and the freedoms given by the Constitution, and seeks to do away with the archaic and oppressive laws that he and his partner Sibal have introduced in the era of the so-called \"reformer\", Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The Constitution of India needs \u2014 at long last \u2014 to prevail over laws that belong to the dustbin of history.\nhttp://www.sunday-guardian.com/analysis/mr-chidambaram-its-time-to-walk-the-talk",

        "raw_content": "By hacken2013 August 17, 2015 action BJJ blood boxing cage cage fighter cage fighters cage fighting clark combat sports event fight fight to finish fighter hackenmueller King of the Cage mixed martial arts MMA punch\nFriday night marks another important night for MMA fighter Kevin \u201cthe Anishinaabe Kid\u201d Clark as he returns to the fight game in Sioux Falls, SD. After a period of time on the recovery list, Clark will be back in action with RFA as he looks to continue his winning streak. Clark took some time to answer some questions for his fans.\nWho are you fighting? What do you know about his record, or his fighting style, and his fight reputation?\nI will be fighting Matt Lopez from California. He is 5-0. He has one knockout, and I believe the rest of his wins are from submission. Who would have thought? He was a Division 1 collegiate wrestler. The ground is his happy place. I know he likes to stand for a bit, see if he can control you there. If he can\u2019t, most of the time he tries to take his opponent to the ground.\nAre you training any differently for this bout, or in anticipation of his style?\nMy training hasn\u2019t really changed. I still work all aspects of mixed martial arts. I have been working on my footwork a bit more than usual. For the most part I have been working on my wrestling like I always do. The reason for this is, it seems like every fight I get into I am usually fighting a wrestler. I\u2019m not worried at all about Matt\u2019s wrestling. My coach, Joe Trottier, and my teammates are so amazing with all their knowledge and years in this sport, I feel like I can stick with the best wrestlers because of them. When I first came to Joe, I didn\u2019t even know what a \u201cwhizzer\u201d was.\nTell us about your staph infection that recently sidelined you.\nI was training for a big fight I had coming up with King of the Cage. I ended up catching staph infection during the training. I was going to a few different gyms at the time and trying to cut more weight than usual, and I ended up having surgery. It sidelined me for over a month. It was really hard on me, not being able to do what I love to do. But in another way, it helped me. Taking that time off helped the rest of my body to heal and got me back into the gym feeling 100% again.\nHow has it affected your fight game?\nThe time off really helped my fight game. I was able to add a few more things to my fight style, which I wasn\u2019t able to do because of a few injuries I wouldn\u2019t let heal.\nWhat do you think will come next for you after this RFA fight?\nI don\u2019t know what is next for me yet. I take one fight at a time and focus on that. I would love to get back to King of the Cage again. I really enjoy working with their organization. We will see. I have nothing but time, I am in no rush at all.\nAnyone you\u2019d like to thank?\nI would like to thank my family for all of their support, and my manager Dean Lamb. Without them none of this would be possible. I can\u2019t forget about my sponsors. I would like to thank the Academy of Combat Arts for pushing me to the limits every day. Without ACA and the coaches I would have quit this sport a long time ago. Tainted Industries for always taking care of me and giving me the best gear a person can wear. All-American Vitamins for keeping me healthy during my career. Midwest Industrial X-ray for always being there, and working with me to help me advance in my career as a radiographer and a mixed martial artist. Last, but not least, the \u201cBeautiful\u201d Sandy Hackenmueller and Fight to Finish Photography. Sandy truly loves the sport more than anyone I know. After a fight, a fighter can\u2019t wait until she posts her pictures of their fight and the photography always comes out perfect. It\u2019s nice to be able to look back at those memories from the shots she has taken.\nPlease follow Kevin Clark as he continues his MMA journey. He can be followed on Facebook and Twitter at @kevinclarkmma!",

This is where abnormal white blood cells are produced in the bone marrow, and they begin to take over the production of red blood cells, overcrowding and leading to symptoms like trouble breathing and tiredness, being easily bruised and have a greater risk of infections. A patient may also experience weight loss, red spots on the skin, swollen lymph nodes, night sweats and fever, and bone and joint pain. There are many different types of Leukemia classified as either Myeloid or Lymphoid. Your doctor will advise a physical exam, blood test, x-rays and even a bone marrow biopsy to find what kind of Leukaemia is on the body. Once determined, the treatment depends on the patient\u2019s health, age, and type of Leukemia.

        "raw_content": "13 Benefits of Coconut Oil For Skin Health\nThe skin is the part of the body that regularly comes in contact with the surroundings. It protects the vital internal organs of the body from pathogens, microbes and harmful substances.\nIt helps in retaining body fluids by preventing dehydration. Today, everybody yearns for a healthy and youthful skin.\nSkin health can be affected by many factors like microbial infections, pollution, UV radiations, exposure to certain chemicals, injury and environment. Regular treatment and care are required to maintain a healthy skin and prevent it from harm.\nCoconut oil has multiple health benefits for the skin. It protects and nurtures the skin cells. Coconut oil is obtained from the mature, white flesh of the coconut. It is rich in saturated fats and used for generations for its health benefits.\nCoconut oil has this amazing and rather rare property that it is very effective when taken internally as well as when used topically. It has been used for skin care for ages now in tropical regions. There are several examples where coconut oil is considered to be beauty secret, such as that of Polynesian women.\nProven Benefits of Coconut oil for Skin\n1. Coconut oil is a natural anti-microbial agent and can fight common skin infections\n2. Coconut oil can remedy acne\n3. Coconut oil can reduce skin inflammation and soothes dermatitis\n4. Coconut oil moisturizes the skin and benefits in eczema\n5. Coconut oil is a natural sunscreen and protects the skin from UV radiations\n6. Coconut oil promotes faster dermal wound healing\n7. It is gentle on the skin to use\n8. Coconut oil heals cracked and dry skin\n9. The benefit in Jock Itch\n10. Anti-aging effects\n11. Great massage oil\n12. Helps in Insect Bites\n13. Protects from sunburns\nHow to apply coconut on skin\nWhich coconut oil to use on skin\nCoconut Oil based Deodorant\nCoconut deodorant with essential oils\nStoring coconut oil deodorant\nHow to apply your coconut oil deodorant\nCoconut oil is toxin free and is readily absorbed in our skin thus providing several benefits to the skin such as anti-aging, soft & smooth skin, fighting infections, healing wounds, protecting from UV rays, help in insect bites, acne, rashes, sunburn, etc.\nThere are several benefits coconut oil provides to the skin, here are some of the most important ones:\nDo you know our skin is breeding ground for numerous bacteria, fungus and viruses? Yes, that is correct.\nNot all of these microorganisms are harmful, some are essential for our health. You can consider skin as a wall against intruders waiting to enter our body and cause damage.\nWhen we get cuts, bruises etc. they get an opening to do so. That is why it is important to wash your wound and apply anti-septic asap to avoid infections.\nFortunately, mother nature has provided us with a great mechanism to keep these microbes out \u2013 pH of our skin. Our skin is acidic in nature which makes it unfavourable for microbes to survive.\nRole of sebum \u2013 We hear about sebum mostly in the wrong context \u2013 cause of acne. But this is not so. Sebum is the oil produced by our body (consisting mainly of triglycerides) which acts as food for lipophilic bacteria (good bacteria) which converts it into free fatty acids which have powerful anti-microbial properties. Sebum also makes your skin soft and smooth by acting as oil.\nVarious bacteria, fungus, and viruses are known to cause skin infections. Some infections are mild while others pose serious health risks. Examples of skin infections are cellulitis, boils, leprosy (bacterial); chickenpox, warts, measles (viral); athlete\u2019s foot, yeast infections, diaper rash (fungal).\nThese infections are usually treated with topical application of an anti-microbial agent in the affected area, which can fight of the microbe.\nCoconut oil comprises of medium-chain triglycerides and saturated fatty acids like lauric acid, capric acid, and caprylic acid, which have antimicrobial propensities. [1] [2] [3]\nIn a study mentioned in The Research Journal of Applied Sciences, Engineering and Technology, coconut oil was incorporated in a cream base and tested against various skin infection-causing microbes like A. niger, S. aureus. Ps. Aeruginosa, P. vulgaris, B. subtilis and C. albicans.\nIt was found that active ingredients of coconut oil (mainly monolaurin) that were released from the cream showed antimicrobial activity against these microbes. [4]\nMonolaurin is the monoglyceride of lauric acid present in coconut oil.\nResearch from The Journal of Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy proves lauric acid to be the most inhibitory and efficient against microbes, specifically the gram-positive bacteria. [5]\nThe International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research reports another study where the anti-microbial properties of various edible oils were checked against several microbes like E.coli, Trichophyton rubrum, and C. albicans.\nIt was inferred that coconut oil showed a significant inhibitory action against these microbes and can be used to treat skin infections. [6]\nCandida species (mostly Candida albicans) are known to cause skin infections known as cutaneous candidiasis. It also causes diaper rashes in infants and vaginal yeast infections. [7]\nThe Journal of Medicinal Food reports a study where the efficacy of coconut oil against various species of Candida was examined. Coconut oil inhibited the growth of various Candida species, and it was proposed that it should be used in the treatment of fungal infections. [8]\nIn another study, coconut oil showed a strong antifungal activity against the species Candida albicans. [9]\nStaphylococcus aureus is yet another bacterium that causes several skin infections, including psoriasis. [10]\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil can prevent and treat various skin infections caused by microbes.\nOn the other hand, Propionibacterium acnes causes inflammatory acne among individuals.\nThe lauric acid present in coconut oil inhibits the activity of both these microbes. [11] [12] [13]\nThis inhibitory action against the bacterium P. acnes is also demonstrated by Capric acid, another fatty acid found in coconut oil. [14]\nAlso, solid lipid nanoparticles containing lauric acid and retinoic acid were developed to treat acne vulgaris, which is caused by P.acnes, wherein these fatty acids inhibited the growth of this bacterium. [15]\nAs the number of drug-resistant microbial species is increasing, coconut oil presents itself as an excellent and highly efficient alternative to antimicrobial drugs.\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil can prevent and treat infections that cause acne.\nMost skin infections, injuries, and rashes present themselves with inflammation, swelling, and redness. This is due to the body\u2019s immune response to invasion by microbes, pathogens, antigens or other foreign objects.\nCoconut oil has anti-inflammatory nature which can help in preventing the swelling, pain, and redness of the skin. [16] [17] [18]\nThis is due to the presence of various fatty acids like palmitic acid, lauric acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid which have anti-inflammatory action. [19] [20] [21]\nThese fatty acids inhibit the production of TNF-\u03b1 (Tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1) which is an important mediator of the inflammatory process. [22]\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil effectively treats and prevents inflammation, swelling, and pain caused by skin infections.\nSkin moisture is retained with the help of amino acids and lipids in the skin, which prevent water loss. Due to environmental factors, these lipids are sometimes lost or decreased, making the skin susceptible to drying.\nMoisturizers prevent this by forming a coating on the skin and keeping it hydrated.\nCoconut oil acts as an excellent moisturizer. When applied topically to the skin, it helps in retaining moisture and keeps skin healthy.\nCoconut oil was also added to skin rejuvenating creams, lotions, and gels, which assisted in maintaining the skin tone, moisture, and smoothness. [23]\nXerosis is a skin condition that results in dry, rough and itchy skin. In a study conducted on 34 patients with xerosis, skin moisturizing effects of coconut oil were tested by topical application for 2 weeks.\nCoconut oil improved skin lipid levels and hydration. Also, it was considered perfectly safe for use without any adverse reactions. [24]\nIn a study from The Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, it was proved that coconut oil massage in infants, twice daily, prevented epidermal water loss and improved the overall skin condition and water balance.\nThis helped in retaining body fluids and maintaining good health. [25]\nAtopic dermatitis is another skin condition in which skin hydration is decreased due to increased epidermal water loss and impaired water holding ability of the skin.\nResearch published in The International Journal of Dermatology studies the effects of virgin coconut oil on 117 patients with Atopic Dermatitis. It was found that topical application of coconut oil improved the condition and helped with the treatment. [26]\nAnother study, comparing the effect of virgin coconut oil and virgin olive oil on 26 patients with the same condition, reported the effectiveness of coconut oil in the treatment of the disease. [27]\nCoconut oil is a better moisturizer than most creams and lotions because it is more efficient due to its ability to stay longer on the skin. [28]\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil helps in moisturizing and softening of dry skin caused by various diseases. It also prevents water loss and keeps the skin hydrated.\nExposure to Ultraviolet (UV) radiations from the sun results in deterioration of the skin condition. It can cause sunburns, wrinkles, cancers, and premature skin aging.\nA study published in The Journal of Pharmacognosy Research studies the UV absorbing capacity of various herbal oils.\nIt was found that coconut oil absorbed a significant amount of UV radiations and had a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of about 8. [29]\nIn another study, coconut oil was found to block 20% of UV radiations. [30]\nThis property can be used to formulate sunscreens and lotions containing coconut oil for skin protection.\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil absorbs a decent amount of UV rays and can protect the skin from its harmful effects.\nAs skin is constantly exposed to the environment and vulnerable to injuries, it needs to get healed faster to prevent further infections.\nCoconut oil helps in maintaining skin integrity and promotes wound treatment.\nIn a study, the effect of topical application of virgin coconut oil on wound healing was investigated.\nCoconut oil healed the wound faster by increasing collagen (structural protein in the skin) synthesis and linking. It also increased the production of fibroblasts, a connective tissue in the skin. [31]\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil improves skin health by healing the wounds faster.\nSeveral chemical-based skin products, creams, and lotions are commercially available, but they pose a serious risk of adverse effects, irritations, and allergies. Skin is a very sensitive organ and therefore, it is important to use skin applications with care.\nCoconut oil is considered completely safe for use without causing irritations, discomfort, reactions, and side effects.\nAllergies to coconut oil are also very rare. It is easily absorbed by the skin and very effective. [32] [33]\nWhat does this mean? Coconut oil is gentle on the skin without causing allergies and side effects.\nWe all are worried about our skin losing moisture very soon, especially in the winter season. Dry skin requires constant nourishment and moisture else it dries up and cracks.\nApplying coconut oil is a great remedy for cracked and dry skin because coconut oil is absorbed very well into the skin.\nMany find it better than any of the popular and expensive moisturizing creams available in the market.\nThe way to use coconut oil for dry skin is to keep applying it on the skin in small amounts at regular intervals till your skin condition improves.\nSeveral people apply coconut oil just once and twice and then expect things to improve \u2013 this does not happen. You need to apply it regularly as one does with normal creams.\nCracking is a more severe condition as compared to dryness and takes a longer time to heal.\nHere you need to apply coconut oil liberally and make sure it sticks to the skin. As this is generally not possible at daytime, use this remedy before going to sleep.\nSoak a cotton cloth in coconut oil (it should not drip but should have a good amount of oil in it) and apply it to the affected area and then wrap it with plastic.\nPlastic will ensure coconut oil does not stain your bed etc. Repeat it for a few days, you will see great improvement. Apply till condition goes completely.\nIn today\u2019s lifestyle, we damage our protective layer of skin in many ways, one of them is soap. Soap not only washes away harmful microbes by also this layer and goof microbes, making our skin prone to infections.\nFatty acids present in coconut oil help in regaining the skin\u2019s protective layer much faster and thus prevents microbial attacks.\nOne example of germ-fighting of coconut oil is its benefit in jock itch. Jock itch is caused due to fungal infection on the moist skin. Regular application of coconut oil treats this infection in just a few days.\nThis is one is very important. But before we go into this one needs to understand what causes wrinkles, dull skin etc. at an early age.\nOne of the key reasons is free radicals. Free radicals are responsible for various diseases and disorders in our body.\nFree radicals attack connective tissues of our skin which are responsible for elasticity and smoothness of our skin.\nThis results in sagging of skin, wrinkles, etc.\nWhat can you do about it? If you take anti-oxidant rich food (rich in Vitamin A, E, and C), it helps in keeping your skin young. Coconut oil is also a great antioxidant and thus helps to maintain young looking skin.\nThis is not all, there are several other ways coconut oil helps your skin they are:\nRemoving dead skin: Our skin sheds dead cells on a regular basis and new cells take its place. With old age this ability to regenerate new cells decreases and thus our skin becomes dull. Coconut oil helps by removing these dead cells and thus keeping skin young\nCoconut oil also increases the strength of connective tissues of our skin. This helps in removing wrinkles. Coconut oil acts at a cellular level unlike many other creams which we use which act superficially and their effect is not long lasting.\nCoconut is a great massage oil and can be used for full body massage. It helps the skin to remain soft and smooth. Coconut also does not stain too, thus much easier to use. It can be easily mixed with other oils and then used for massaging.\nCoconut oil can be applied to insect bites such as that of mosquitoes, ants, etc.\nThis decreases burning and itching sensation. Again antimicrobial properties of coconut oil come into the picture.\nThis is a tried and tested method. Next time you get bitten by an insect rather than jumping to an ointment \u2013 try applying coconut oil. You will be surprised by the results.\nUsing coconut oil protects the skin from sunburn. Coconut oil has been used since long in tropical countries as suntan oil. Even today several lotions have coconut oil as an ingredient.\nWhile the application of coconut oil on the skin is simple to take care of the following:\nDo not apply too much of coconut oil at one go. Oil should be applied in small amounts (the amount which your skin can absorb) but often rather than too much and seldom.\nFor benefits to show, you need to use coconut oil regularly.\nYou can apply it before sleep or as a massage oil or just before leaving into the sun\nThere are several types of coconut oil available in the market today (Read: Types of Coconut Oil). Which one to use?\nWe strongly recommend virgin coconut oil.\nIf you find it expensive, you can make it at your own home easily (read here to know more). Virgin coconut oil can provide full benefits of a coconut oil which a refined oil cannot.\nAlso, we would suggest getting your virgin coconut oil from a trusted brand or vendor. As \u201cvirgin coconut\u201d oil is not a standard term, different producers can name their oil like virgin coconut oil while they actually may not be fully pure, make sure you take care of this.\nThe basic coconut oil deo can be made using the following \u2013\n1 cup of virgin coconut oil. This is very important do not use RBD coconut oil for making this, results will not be good.\n3/4 cups of baking soda\n3/4 cups shea butter (Shea butter is a slightly yellowish or ivory-colored fat extracted from the nut of the African shea tree. It is widely used in cosmetic industry.)\nThe making process is very easy, just heat (low temp.) butter and coconut oil and melt them, if they are already in the liquid state you do not need to heat it, just add other ingredients.\nThe aim is to mix all of them very very smoothly so that when you apply it you get a nice feeling.\nYou can add more cornstarch and baking soda if you feel that the mixture is not thick enough. It should be of decent thickness to hold nicely.\nThis one lasted for 8-10 months! as you do not need to apply it daily!\nThe main difference between my first one and this is the use of some essential oils.\nEssential oils not only add mild fragrance to the deo but also have their own great health benefits. Here the ones you can use \u2013\nTea tree oil : Known to be great for various skin disorders such as acne, warts, insect bites, rashes, itching, etc. Precaution: Tea tree oil may not suit everyone, thus make sure you do a patch test before using it extensively in your deodorant.\nLavender essential oil : Lavender essential oil has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties just like coconut oil. It is known to be great for various skin disorders such as eczema, itching, cuts, acne, wrinkles, etc. Precautions : Lavender essential may also cause irritation if your skin is sensitive, please do a prior patch test.\nRose essential oil : I love the fragrance of this one. It also have several skin benefits.\nYou can use any other essential too. Depends upon the fragrance you like and what all benefits that essential oil can add to your deodorant.\nEssential oil is added after the mixture of all other ingredients is ready. So there is just one change in the actual process \u2013 adding essential oils.\nCoconut oil deodorant cannot be used as a spray.\nIt has to applied like a cream or like a roll on deodorant over the skin. But this is not a big deal at all.\nHere are two great ways to store your coconut oil deodorant:\nThe key thing here is to ensure you are able to take out the deodorant easily. I found that moisturizing cream packs which have a wide mouth and low height are best suited for this job. You just take out the deodorant as you take out the cream. This is the way I store my deodorant\nDeodorant containers can also be used. If you have these, remove the previous deodorant (if any)and then put your new coconut oil deodorant in them.\nYou can also find your convenient way to store your deodorant. Always put the can / bottle in refrigerator else it may melt!\nBased on the way you stored your coconut deodorant you may have to apply it like a cream or a roll on deodorant. Use the method you feel convenient.\nI generally apply it after taking bath. Coconut oil in deodorant also replenishes the fatty acids we loose when we wask our body. These are essential for the health of our skin.\nCoconut oil deo also helps in this, just amazing!\nHere are some of the issues you may face initially while using the deodorant:\nSkin rashes / redness in armpits: Armpit skin is sensitive and thus these problems may occur. This may be because of the essential oil or the baking soda used. Try to change your essential oil and if does not work reduce baking soda quality a bit.\nThis is not anti-sweat deodorant and thus do not expect it to stop your sweat. Based on the research I have done one should not stop the body from sweating anyways. What you should try to control is sweat odour and infections.\nInitial odour issues : If you have been using commercial deos for long your body may take sometime to adjust this and during that some people may face odour issues, but it should go away in a week\u2019s time\nIf you are using coconut oil deodorant share your experiences with all other readers !\nCoconut oil is extremely beneficial for maintaining skin health. It helps in preventing skin infections caused by various bacteria, fungus, and viruses.\nIt prevents skin inflammation and also moisturizes the skin. It promotes faster skin repair and protects it from harmful effects of UV rays.\nIt is also completely safe to use and causes no side effects. It can be easily incorporated in creams, lotions, and soaps or used as such for healthy skin.\nDo you use coconut oil for skin? If yes share your experience with us here!\nPrevious articleAmazing Benefits of Coconut Oil for Insect Bites, How to Use it\nNext articleBenefits of Coconut Oil for Hair\ntarun September 29, 2012 at 4:30 pm\nCoconut oil is one of the best you can use for your skin.

        "raw_content": "\"Everything,\" he said, \"his sound, his intonation, his reading, his improvising. Reinie was the perfect bassist.\" I couldn't disagree, and neither could Larry. There are lots of fine bassists in LA, but Reinie stood alone.\nHere's how I met Reinie: In 1970, I had just moved to Los Angeles from Indiana, and I was trying to become established in my new home town, trying to be a working musician (yes, that's an oxymoron). One way to do that was to substitute for other, busier musicians on occasions when they needed a night off.\nOne such subbing gig for me was for sitting in for a fine pianist named Byron Olsen, who was then playing keyboards in the onstage band for the musical \u201cHair\u201d at the Aquarius Theatre in Hollywood.\nWhen I arrived for my first run-through visit, I met the bassist and conductor for the Hair band, a genial young man named Reinie Press. The two of us were destined later to become busy in the studios, and we did record dates together many times. One day early on, he invited my and my wife to lunch so we could meet his new wife. Linda, it turned out, had met Reinie when she was in the cast of Hair. We enjoyed a lunch at Art\u2019s Delicatessen, got acquainted over a lengthy afternoon chat and put each other in our address books.\nBy 1975, I was a pretty busy studio dude, and after recording a couple of albums with Neil Diamond, I was invited to meet with Neil to talk about joining his touring band. I knew a couple of others in the band\u2014the leader and drummer, Dennis St. John, was an early acquaintance, I had worked a bit with Richard Bennett and King Errisson.\nI wan't sure if I wanted to go on the road, and asked some of my studio pals. They told me I shouldn't do it, that I would lose all my studio work. But I was foolhardy, and said yes. (It turned out they were right\u2014I did eventually lose my studio work. But, eventually, so did they, and I was still in the comfort of a very happy family band.)\nWhen I got to the first rehearsal at a studio on the Paramount film lot, I was happy to find that Linda and Reinie were there as well. The band was great, the music was exemplary, the audiences were ultra-friendly, and we all spent a jolly 40 years on the road together.\nLinda somehow became pregnant during one tour, and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl they named Daisy. Daisy grew up on the road, and was \u201chome-schooled,\u201d mostly on tour, with an entire band of Auntie Mam types to give her life lessons as only musicians can give. As she got older, she took on various lobs on tour, including as my intern for my somewhat daily newsletter, the PBI, a task which she did expertly.\nDaisy and I bonded even more due to our shared interest in new music. That is a term for classical music with added fun,\nYears later, and with many adventures in between, Daisy Graduated from the Manhattan School of Music, and established herself in New York as a bold interpreter of experimental classical music in the US and Europe and the principal singer at Brooklyn's famed \"House of Yes.\"\nReinie and Linda retired from touring just before our 2015 tour, and although we missed having the Presses to kick around, I found myself working with Daisy on a very special project. The result of that project is about to, as they like to say these days, drop. I\u2019ll be posting a lot about that very soon.\nAnnekevanaalderen Holland\nGo for iT Tom Great great\nGo for iT Tom",

How on earth can a football team go from just about keeping their place in the top flight last season to running away with the title this year? Many people have put forward theories of how a club with a tiny budget can succeed against clubs who spend more on one player than Leicester did on their whole team. The word that keeps coming back into those discussions is the word team. By putting together not just good players but a group of people who work well together, whose strengths complement each other and whose combination as a group working with a common aim is so much stronger than any single individual can be.\nSimilarly, in Headley Meredith Associates we have a team of people who all have great individual skills but who rely on the combined strengths of them all. It starts with a business development team who are tasked with identifying potential clients and then gaining an understanding of the specific situation that client is in regarding their commercial property and identifying if that suggests they could benefit from a review of their potential for Embedded Capital Allowances. Explaining this complex subject in a clear and concise way requires a deep understanding of the subject matter and an affinity with the client specific situation.\nOnce the client has agreed to proceed it is imperative that our surveying team can identify accurately and comprehensively all items that qualify for relief and that the combined knowledge of our chartered surveyors and quantity surveyors put together an accurate report highlighting all items that qualify. Writing a detailed report of these they can then liaise with the technical tax team headed by our chartered tax advisor so they can interpret the results of the survey using all current and correct HMRC rules and guidelines.\nThe final part of the equation is the writing of the report itself by our chartered tax advisor. Where necessary our specialist will communicate with the client\u2019s accountant and other professional advisors and in conjunction with his colleagues on the surveying side of our operation he will accurately and professionally produce a final report that we know HMRC will be happy with \u2013 we have a 100% acceptance record of reports submitted.\nOur team works as a unit, focused on producing the correct outcome for the client that we know delivers them significant allowances that had gone unclaimed and that will benefit them both in the short term and the longer term from a reduced tax liability perspective. We don\u2019t get an open topped bus ride around the town in the same way that Leicester City players will but we do get great satisfaction of a job well done and delivering on our promises.",

        "raw_content": "Everyone knows Babe Ruth as one of the greatest players in MLB history and certainly one of the game\u2019s most recognizable faces, over a century after he first started playing.\nBut, Ruth is also being noted for the pioneering cancer treatment he underwent during the final years of his life.\nThe amazing story is being told over at Popular Science, where it is told that Ruth was likely the first cancer patient to receive chemotherapy, which had only been developed a few years prior and which had only been tested on lab mice.\nNaturally there is some ethical questions as Ruth was given treatment that only someone of his stature and fame could afford and Ruth was using relatively untested treatments in humans.\nMiraculously, the drug worked. At least for a short time. Ruth started daily injections on June 29, 1947. In short order, Bikhazi reports, he gained back some of the weight he\u2019d lost, reported less pain, and was finally able to swallow solid food. He continued chemotherapy for about six weeks and various radiation treatments for another year, as doctors cast about in search of a permanent cure. They never found one, and Ruth ultimately died of cancer on August 16, 1948, at the age of 53. But in the process of that trial and error treatment, Bikhazi reports, Ruth became perhaps the first patient to receive sequential radiation and chemotherapy. Now called \u201cchemo-beamo,\u201d this two-pronged approach is standard treatment for many cancers today.\nThis is one amazing story that probably won\u2019t dominate the headlines, but is sure to provide an interesting read as you start your week.\nRelated Topics:babe ruth\nEsteban Loaiza Arrested Carrying 44 Pounds Of Heroin And Cocaine\nAaron Judge Breaks Babe Ruth\u2019s Yankees Record For Most Homers At Home\nMarlins\u2019 Giancarlo Stanton\u2019s Homerun Streak Ends, But Eyes 61 Homers",

You can stop receiving information on your favorite domains at any time. If however, you wish to add other extensions to your list, you can always create a new one.\nCan I create an additional list of favorites?\nYes, it\u2019s possible to create a new list at any time.\nWhat's the Top category?\nThe TOP category shows a list of the domain extensions still to be launched, which have generated particular interest in our list of favorite domains, therefore resulting as the most popular.",

Adam and Chad wanted to elaborate on this new email marketing study's findings, what email marketing is, the significance of email marketing as a marketing strategy, and how email marketing can be utilized as a way to boost your conversions. Watch this Daily Brown Bag to learn about email marketing, which industries are at the top when it comes to email marketing and reaching the inbox, and more insights about email marketing that you\u2019ll want to know!\nHello and welcome to The Daily Brown Bag. Today we're gonna be covering some breaking news, a study that covers that 87% of marketing email reaches U.S. inboxes. I'm Chad Hill and I'm joined by Adam Stetzer.\nHey, good afternoon, Chad. Welcome to The Brown Bag. We're talking about email marketing today which is, I think, Chad, safe to say traditionally for us not a very well attended topic. People seem to see it as pretty old, not exciting, not new enough. So I know when we do webinars and we float out blasts on this topic, we don't get as much traction as we do with SEO or social media. But this headline today is really startling - 87% of email from marketers in the U.S. reach the inbox. And it's something that's worthy of considering if you're really looking to increase your return on investment from digital marketing and get more customers.\nWe talk about this all the time. Email marketing must be a part of a well rounded, diversified marketing strategy. If you're not doing it or you're doing it poorly, you're absolutely just leaving money on the table. After you get a lead or after you have a prospect, to be able to nurture them along is one of the best ways to increase your conversions. So we talk about that all the time, Chad, thinking about email marketing as a way to boost conversion, kind of the same way we talk about re-marketing or re-targeting for PPC ads once you know there's interest.\nBut this study today that is the breaking news came from Return Path, and they've just released this 2014 benchmarking study on email deliverability. And again, the headline is 87% of email from marketers reaches the inbox. It was a pretty big study. They looked at a lot of countries. Australia and Germany had the most successful email marketing campaigns up at 89%, but in the U.S. and the U.K. at 87%, not far off from that, are doing better than the global average. And I guess the one question I have, Chad, does this work in all different industries or do you think this is only true for certain niches?\nWell, I think some of the data they provided answers that question, Adam. And so it looks like that certainly some of the top industries were health and beauty with 96% of emails getting to the inbox. Insurance, apparel, food and beverage, automotive, these are all...and actually nonprofits and retail...all above 90%, though one of the lowest of all the different niches was actually software and the Internet, our favorite industry here, where only 43% of emails reached the inbox. So it actually varies from industry to industry, but I do think that overall this is still critically important.\nWe have some other stats here that we wanted to share. According to Experian, the average return on investment for email marketing is for every dollar spent, people are getting $44.25 back. So that's very, very good ROI. And actually 77% of consumers prefer to receive permission-based marketing via email. So this is the channel of choice for people to get these personalized emails in their inbox here.\nAnd then finally, one of their staff from the Econsultancy's 2014 email marketing industry census revealed that companies attribute 23% of their sales to email marketing. That was only 18% in 2013. So Adam, you pointed out earlier we all kind of think of email as this crusty, old thing, but we keep seeing these stats showing that it's actually growing in importance. And we've discussed this in the past and attributed some of this to the fact that we're all carrying our phones around. And if we're busy in line, we're either clicking through some emails or reading a story, but actually the amount of email people are consuming is going up, all the while that all the pundits are talking about how email is dying.\nSo, again, companies still rank email as the best channel for ROI. In fact, 68% rate it as good or excellent. And then McKinsey & Company came out and talked about email has the upper hand for new customer acquisition that almost 40% ... the fact that email marketing is 40% more successful than social media. So I think we are, of course, heading into a couple of challenges. Google this year announced that they were starting to categorize and move basic commercial email into its own tab to separate it out from other correspondence. So I think that it's gonna get harder, but we still see here that the deliverability is fantastic.\nYes, and I don't think nobody would doubt, Chad, that it's ubiquitous in most of our lives. So if this is the channel that you are not leveraging, and I know a lot of people are very, very focused on search engine optimization. We hear that every day. Our reseller community is always talking about PPC; how can I get social to work for me? Well, email marketing is still alive and kicking. And you are probably not utilizing email marketing to its fullest capacity and integrating it well with your other digital marketing strategies to make sure you're maximizing your return on investment.\nWell, that's our coverage of this breaking news on email marketing. We'd like your comments. Please leave a few on our blog, and as always we ask you to subscribe. We'll see you again real soon.",

        "raw_content": "american-hungarian demography\nHungary Today had the pleasure of sitting down for an interview with Dr. P\u00e1l Dem\u00e9ny, a Hungarian demographer and economist whose research on population decline and demographic policy have been extremely influential internationally. After fleeing Hungary following the fall of the 1956 Revolution, Dr. Dem\u00e9ny made his way to the United States, where he would have a long and fruitful career. Now living in Budapest, the 85-year-old researcher continues to speak at lectures, conferences and other events, in addition to having recently overseen the translation of a collection of his work into Hungarian.\nOver the course of the interview Dr. Dem\u00e9ny, a member of the Friends of Hungary Foundation, discussed his personal background and his experience as a Hungarian refugee studying at Princeton, as well as his views on issues ranging from Europe\u2019s demographic decline to a system of voting that would give children and the next generation greater weight in political affairs, a concept that is known to this day as \u201cDem\u00e9ny voting.\u201d\nThis interview has been edited for clarity and concision, and translated from the original Hungarian.\nHow would you introduce yourself?\nI would begin by saying that I earned a Doctorate in Economics from Princeton in 1961, and within this I specialized in demographics and the way they relate to economics.\nWhen did you move to America?\nWell, I can easily answer this question, since yesterday was the 60th anniversary of my arrival in America, with an offer to complete my PhD at Princeton in my pocket. From the very first day I was there in Princeton to study. This lasted from 1957 until 1961, when I received my doctorate.\nWhat was it like to arrive as a 20-something year-old to completely new surroundings? Was it frightening?\nIt was very exciting [laughs]. It wasn\u2019t frightening, but it was highly interesting, especially since, even though I could read well in English, I couldn\u2019t speak it at all, since I had learned the language exclusively through books.\nHow helpful were people? To what extent were you accepted?\nIf you are a graduate student at Princeton, they assume that you\u2019re a smart person and don\u2019t need help. While everyone was very kind and polite, they were also all occupied by their own research. It was a great place, one unlike any other I had experienced before. Earning my PhD was hard work. My original scholarship was for the first year only, meaning that by the end of that year I had to show that I was worthy of continuing my studies at Princeton. Ultimately, I continued to receive scholarships for the rest of my studies.\nAt the end of my second year I began to specialize in studying population trends and the ways in which they relate to economics. At the end of my second year I began to specialize in studying population trends and the ways in which they relate to economics. I got a job as a population research assistant at the Office of Population research, which, at the time, was the best population research institute in America. My doctorate\u2019s theme was already demographics, dealing with how they related to economics.\nAfter receiving my PhD, I received an offer to stay at the university as an Assistant Professor, while simultaneously being offered a formal position at the Office of Population Research as a researcher. I was there for 4 years. This was at the time when the use of computers started becoming more popular, and I learned programming because of this, so that by 1965 my work appeared alongside MC Coleal\u2019s, a Princeton professor, in the Princeton University Press. It was an 800-page book, with 90% of it being composed of tables, mortality models, and the age structure for stable populations.\nDuring your studies how connected were you to professors, and researchers you would eventually work with?\nExceptionally well. Especially with four professors, who made lasting impressions on me, and who taught me a lot. Two of these were population specialists, Fran Notstein, the director of the institute, and Ensley Cole, the vice-director.\nYou were at Princeton for 4 years after graduating?\nYes. After those 4 years news of my work spread, and I was offered a job at the University of Michigan. This is how I ended up at Ann Arbor, U of M, as an Associate Professor. I also received the position of Deputy Director and Researcher at the local Population Research Institute, which had a good reputation. After a little while I was named a Full Professor, and I received an invitation to Berkely, as Visiting Professor, with the intention of returning to Ann Arbor as a professor. This never came to be, however, because at Berkely I received an offer to go to Hawaii, which had just become an American state, as a Professor of Economics in Honolulu. I offered to start an institute there, which they eagerly accepted, and this is how I founded the East-West Population Institute, which started with one member: me. This institute specialised in the problems of population aging in East Asian countries, as well as parts of the Southeast Asian region.\nOf course, I had to recruit a research team, who came partly from East Asia (from Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines). After a few years I had created an outstanding team, having brought people from Australia as well, and the institute began to build up a good reputation. Honolulu was an interesting place, far away from Princeton, far away from Ann Arbor, and far away from Berkely as well. Having had to recruit and build up the program meant that I spent quite a bit of time visiting Asia. These were most definitely interesting years.\nThere appeared a Hungarian publication that summarized your work from 1985 to 2015.\nThis is what brought me to Budapest for an extended amount of time. I retired one week after my 80th birthday, but continued to work in my field. The local institute of population research kindly offered to put together a volume of my published work, which they would publish in Hungarian.\nAlthough I started as a specialist in demographics, as time went on I utilised my speciality less and less. Nevertheless, I had a few publications in this field, including one prepared on behalf of the UN, that dealt with how to create a better statistical picture from poor or missing statistics using analytic techniques.\nGetting back on topic though, I dealt more with the economic aspects of population, and especially how they could be affected by politics.\nYou have experience with the ebb and flow of population across many societies, how do you see the issue that is Europe\u2019s primary challenge, demographic decline? Is there a global remedy for this sort of issue, or must it be considered in terms of a given country\u2019s cultural framework? Is there a universal solution?\nThe main solutions have to take place on a country-by country basis. These global solutions don\u2019t tend to work well, due to the large cultural differences [between different countries]. There were three large international conferences (World Population Congress) in 70\u2019s, 80\u2019s, and 90\u2019s, and I participated as an expert in all three. I presented very critical lectures in all three.\nThe first one took place in Bucharest, the second in Mexico City, and the third one was held in Cairo. These primarily dealt with how to reduce the so-called population explosion; to find solutions for how to reduce fertility rates in places where it is very high. There aren\u2019t good overall solutions for these situations either, or at least this was the opinion I presented at these lectures. This wasn\u2019t the accepted political belief at the time; rather, the commonly held belief was that developed nations had a solution the problem, and that this needed to be exported.\nBut let us return to the topic of my career in Hawaii, which lasted only 5 years. Because of the success of the institute I founded I received a promising offer to come to New York, where there existed an NGO, the Population Council. They invited me to be the Vice President, and I went back east to New York. This was in 1973.\nThey wanted to tempt me to come back to New York. The Council had a \u2018Demographic Division\u2019, and they wanted me to be the director, while being vice-president as well. I thought to myself, \u201cIf they wanted me that much then I\u2019ll be in a good position to make demands.\u201d My main wishes were to have a research team investigating population policies, instead of forming a Demographic Division, and to launch a journal, which is something that I felt was extremely necessary. There were already a few journals that dealt with population, but I felt that there needed to be a publication that tied together academia with policy, where truly interesting things were happening in the world of demographics. They kindly met my demands, and this is how \u201cPopulation and Development Review\u201d began in 1975. Simultaneously, instead of a Demographic Division, the \u201cCenter for Policy studies\u201d was founded.\nThis truly was a successful endeavour, and for 38 years I was the editor, and very quickly it earned its prestige as a first-rate journal in America. The publication is successful to this very day, and is going on its 44th year.\nThe other endeavour, the Center for Policy Studies, was not successful in the long run. As is often the case, the source of money for developing and maintaining an institution had an impact, meaning that we had to listen the thoughts of people who were financially supporting the institution. Here the case was that the support was pushing a direction that, on one hand did not interest me, and that on the other hand I had did not have a particularly high opinion of. After its initial successes, I spent a good decade fighting for what this institution should do to for the entire Population Council, but in the meantime, the president who had invited me there had retired, and his successor was a president who understood what it takes to receive financial backing, but did not understand much about the subject matter himself. So, I finally resigned as Vice President, and by de facto the Center dissolved, I became a distinguished scholar in the institution, and I continued as editor of the journal, a post I held until my retirement.\nAre there any publications from this journal which are included in the current Hungarian publication?\nA good amount, but they don\u2019t make up the majority. Returning to the publication in Budapest, I received this offer to put together such a volume, and, having the chance to select what I want, made it again clear that I did not want to do expressly work with just demographics and population selection, but to focus on population policy as well. When it was published, it included my publications from 1986, and nothing of my earlier work, which dealt mainly with demographics. It proved to be a lengthier undertaking than I thought it would be originally, because translation itself is not a simple thing. The translator was very enthusiastic and competent in the field of population, but I felt that I had to be involved in the translating so that there would be no misunderstandings.\nThe book was published in 2015, and took up most of my time for a year and a half. My permanent residency is in America, in Long Island, but my wife and I have not been there for several years now.\nThere are two things come into play here: one is that I have been asked to participate in many local happenings; conferences, to give advice, to give opinions, so I was very busy after the completion of the publication. The other is that, when a person reaches his 85th birthday, his mobility is naturally not what it used to be. This applies to me, and even more so to my wife. Air travel in particular is not a pleasant thing when you get older. By default, then we live here in Budapest, and we have a very nice living arrangement here. We live in a very pleasant neighbourhood; it\u2019s a very pleasant place. To a certain extent, we are stuck in Budapest, for now, but this is a very pleasant thing. We miss America too, and when a direct flight between Budapest and New York appears then we will likely try it out. Now my children and grandchildren visit me here quite often.\nBy 2100 it is predicted that Hungary\u2019s population will be practically halved, that it will drop down to 5.4 million. Can this trend be stopped, or only slowed down?\nA good question; a difficult question. I must say that in my filed of population policy this has become the problem we\u2019re increasingly trying to address, partly because it has been a dominant question since the post-war decades, and growing in strength since then. Demographics is especially interested in this problem in the developing world, where a so-called population explosion has occurred. This meant that the problem of low fertility has been quite neglected. The low level of Hungarian fertility is not a unique phenomenon, it is the case in Europe and in other developed countries, and in many places the situation is even worse than in Hungary.\nI have studied the question for a long time, as well as the issue of what role population policy, in the form of state intervention, can play in the process. Population growth depends on three factors from the demographic point of view: fertility levels, the mortality rate, and the rate of immigration. When this low fertility appeared in Western Europe between the two world wars, in Hungary, they began to formulate a solution through stimulating fertility with so-called \u201cpro-natalist\u201d tactics. After the Second World War, there was a temporary \u201cbaby boom\u201d that let that solution be forgotten; the consequence of this was that even after the \u201cbaby boom\u201d, the population situation seemed safe because they were major cohorts [in demographics this is a group who experienced a common event] that were born after the war.\nWas the \u2018Ratk\u00f3 era\u2019 part of this phenomenon as well?\nThey always refer to Ratk\u00f3 in Hungary, but I do not like the term, partly because it refers to a rather unpleasant health minister [Anna Ratk\u00f3, Hungary\u2019s health minister during the Stalinist dictatorship of M\u00e1ty\u00e1s R\u00e1kosi]. But the terms \u2018Ratk\u00f3\u2019s kids\u2019 and \u2018Ratk\u00f3\u2019s grandchildren\u2019, these are all part of a general phenomenon that may have been amplified in Hungary, where abortions were strictly prohibited. But I would not attribute the majority of these cohorts to Anna Ratk\u00f3.\nBut returning to the topic of low fertility in Western Europe after the \u201cbaby boom\u201d, these stimulated family friendly interventions returned, but not everywhere of course. It is somehow politically \u201cincorrect\u201d for the state to intervene and admit that it is a fertility intervention, and it is accepted rather as a logical component of government assistance programs, in helping mothers avoid financial burden when giving birth, and to have paid leave after birth, to have kindergartens, and family support in various forms.\nThe effectiveness of these policies has very bad press, and I understand the demographics analysis, and why there\u2019s no great success that can be attributed to it. Of course, the problem here is that we can\u2019t know what would have happened if we didn\u2019t have these interventions at all; perhaps the fertility rate would be even lower. What would happen if they lowered the funding for these policies, or got rid of it altogether? Most likely, there would be a reaction affecting the fertility rate, namely a lowered fertility rate. When these policies become an accepted and expected system, then the government would have a very difficult time backing out of them.\nThe argument that the increase of these subsidies might be effective still remains. In Hungary, 4.5% of GDP is spent on family support, which is a very high percentage. Compared to Europe there are few rates this high, but one wonders, what if support was raised to 6%? It would most likely have a certain effect.\nHousing presents another big problem in Hungary. It is difficult to raise two children in a 60-square-foot apartment, and three are almost unthinkable, especially if needs increase. This is the tendency; though the dominant trend is two-child families, there are more and more families with one child, and even zero-child families, even in the middle class. So a third, or fourth child, which is needed to balance out the trend of single child and zero-child families, is a very difficult problem. Family friendly programs like to concentrate on pushing for third and fourth children, but of course the first two children should also be there. The third child is difficult to bring to life when there is no first and second.\nOne problem with this is that we are talking about family-friendly measures, but the goal is not only to promote family fertility, but also raising the number of births. So, it\u2019s hard to say if providing subsidies only for families is the best course of action, because this is the best way to raise a child, but the number of births also depends on what is happening outside the family. From this perspective, the family is defined as a mother and a child, even if the father is not at present or recorded in the book. So, family and birth number are not exactly the same, but policies are trying to ensure that most births happen within a family.\nYou have written that children should be given the right to vote as well.\nI advised that every citizen should be given the right to vote. Every citizen means those people who were born in Hungary, are for all intents and purposes Hungarian citizens, and yet have no influence on the direction of politics. Children born today, or 5, or 10 years ago, will be alive for the majority of the 21st century. But those people who are around my age, or even 20 years younger than I, won\u2019t be around anymore, and their entire life perspective is a shortened life perspective, and that is reflected in their thoughts on politics and general welfare. Their main interests are ensuring their pensions. But their pensions\u2019 security also depends on how many of them are there, and the growth of the working-age population. If they try to fix this situation by increasing the number of births, those new children will enter the labor-force 20, 22, 25 years later. when these pensioners will be in a different world, so it is not surprising that they are not interested in such measures. As a result of past population trends, these pensioners control a plurality of the vote, and will eventually acquire a majority sooner or later.\nThis can be partially remedied by giving every child voting rights, which would be exercised by their parents, or rather by their mothers. Their mothers would vote in their stead. Is a mother capable of this? I think so, because they would be reminded, \u201cthink of your child\u2019s future.\u201d\nOn top of all this, it would add a certain distinction for having given birth. If they have given birth to 3 children then, they would count as 4 votes.\nYou also mentioned the idea of tailoring pensions according to how many children people have had throughout their life.\nThis policy recommendation has a greater value and more influence, although this would be a long-term thing, and wouldn\u2019t bring immediate results to the fertility rates. The size of their pension would depend on the size of the population of the labour-force. This depends on how many children someone has nurtured. Whoever contributed more to the growth of the labour-force, has had an effect on the country\u2019s economy, and the amount available for retirement funds. This individual who raised more children is deserving of compensation, especially looking at the money needed to raise multiple children and the sacrifices they needed to make, besides the money they put aside for retirement and savings; it\u2019s difficult to imagine what is needed to have a large family.\nWould those who adopt children benefit from this policy as well?\nFiguring out the parameters of this is another thing on its own, but I think so, yes. In all respects, for these populace-stimulating measures, it is very important to communicate simply and what someone would receive for behaving differently than they might have planned. There should be no need to hire a lawyer who will investigate what kind of compensation an individual is eligible for and whether they are eligible for it, and so on. This is also a problem for family support systems, which often have too much fine print about who is eligible for what, and how it relates to their work, and so on. It needs to be easily communicable to have an impact.\nA year and a half ago, one of your publications appeared in English, in which you expressed skepticism at the role immigrants play in demographic issues. As a man who lived in America, where Catholics and Chinese alike were formerly considered to be \u201cdangerous\u201d, do you consider it a possibility that in the long run assimilation would take place?\nAmerica\u2019s genius, in terms of assimilation, is far beyond that of Europe\u2019s genius. It is indeed a country whose historical traditions show that this was ultimately an immigrant nation, and that it has successfully assimilated the various waves of immigration.\nThere is an asymmetry in all this: the population problems of developing countries will not be solved by emigration, because only a small fraction of the population might conceivably leave, while the capacity of countries receiving immigrants to accept them is finite. How finite is it? Well, Merkel originally said that, if there is civil war, then the gates of Germany are open to those war-torn countries. Today she says, \u201cSuch things will not happen again.\u201d\nIt\u2019s good that it will not happen again, because Syria is a tiny little state. What if there were a civil war in Egypt, or Nigeria, where hundreds of millions of people live? Obviously, even if they say refugees are welcome, there are limits to this. But what these boundaries should be depends on what the population that is living in the country wants. If refugees from far away are not enthusiastically accepted, then these boundaries must be aligned for that. It is the fundamental right of every country to determine how many people they wish to permanently admit.\nHow definite of an answer can you give to the question of whether the demographic decline of Hungarian society can be stopped?\nThe decline is inevitable, because the population\u2019s structure is such that it is built-in. If today the fertility rate would go up to 2.1%, then a net decrease would occur at occur at the same time, regardless. For there to be a balanced population structure in the long-term, and for it to be stable, the fertility rate must be at 2.1%. In regards to if this is doable, all I can say is that we have every reason to try to make it a reality.\nReporting by Bal\u00e1zs Horv\u00e1th and Tom Szigeti\nTranslated by Nagy Edward Gergely\nPhotos by Tom Szigeti\nBulgaria demography family policy\nUnlike Brussels, Hungary and Bulgaria believe that the answer to demographic challenges is family support rather than migration, Foreign Minister P\u00e9ter Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 said on Tuesday after talks with Bulgaria\u2019s deputy prime minister, Mariana Nikolova. \u201cWe will never allow them to force us to change this approach,\u201d Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 told a joint press conference.

        "raw_content": "Home Internet Why eBooks are as Good as Printed Books?\nWhy eBooks are as Good as Printed Books?\nSharing is good, and with digital technology, sharing is easy. \u2013 Richard Stallman\nEvery day a new technological advancement surprises us. It introduces us to something that we never thought would be possible. Likewise, who would have ever thought that there will be a day when carrying hundreds of books won\u2019t be a problem? Well, not many of us, right? To put it simply, eBooks have made information easily accessible. However, many think eBooks can never be as good as their printed counterparts. They might have their own reasons; but, if they think rationally, eBooks are serving the prime purpose of offering knowledge as effectively as printed books.\nAll those who are stuck in the dilemma of whether or not to opt for JEE or NEET online coaching, primarily because most of the study material is provided in the form of eBooks, you are at the right place. Here we are unfolding the many benefits of eBooks that make them as good as printed books.\nThey are Portable in Nature\nWe are not asking you to bid goodbye to all your printed books, all we are saying is that when you opt for online learning and get study material in the form of eBooks, carrying them around will never be an issue. With eBooks, you will have the entire syllabus by your side all the time. Whether you are travelling to your uncle\u2019s place or to the nearest library, you won\u2019t have to decide which subjects to carry and which to leave behind. Access to every subject all the time will help you prepare and revise from anywhere.\nThey are Durable and Customizable\nYes, you might be someone who takes extreme care of their books; but, printed books are bound to get old and show signs of wear. The good part with eBooks is that they last for a long time unless the file gets affected by some virus, which is rare. When it comes to customisation and readability, eBooks are a step ahead of printed books. The font size can be adjusted according to your comfort, and the same goes with brightness when using a tab or an eBook reader.\nThey Feel the Same\nIf you are someone who keeps away from eBooks as they won\u2019t give a similar feeling like books, think again! eBooks also provide the sense of flipping and reading through the pages just like those traditional books. You will also be surprised to know that the screen of some of the eBook readers are designed in a way that they look exactly like a book. So, if you are worried about the strain that eBooks may cause to the eyes, now you know they don\u2019t.\nEasy Bookmarking\nBookmarking a page in an eBook is as easy as in a printed book. If you are using a device that is specially designed for eBooks, the bookmark icon will help you keep all the bookmarks in one place. To access any or all of the bookmarks, you can easily click the tool button, and all the saved pages will be there for your use. However, one area where eBooks surpass printed books is that you have bookmarks of all the subjects and chapters in one place. You won\u2019t have to go from book to book to look for a particular topic. A tap on the icon will take you to the desired chapter instantly.\nEasy Understanding\nIf you think that it is hard to understand the concepts and formulas from an eBook, time to think again. Just like in traditional printed books, you can underline the key sentences, dog ear (bookmark) the important pages and go back to the highlighted part anytime you want. eBooks are an exact replica of printed books. It\u2019s just that they are in a portable format.\nNow that you have a fair idea that eBooks are as good as the printed ones, don\u2019t delay enrolling yourself into NEET online coaching to make the most of this fast-paced study medium. By opting for online coaching for medical entrance exam not only you will have the liberty of learning at your own pace but will also save commute time.\nPrevious articleHow to Choose the Right Real Estate Agent?\nNext articleLos Angeles Moving Tips \u2013 How to Hire the Right Moving Service",

        "title": "FSBT Technologies ICO: Investment Rating Risky+, review by ICORating",
        "raw_content": "FSBT Technologies Rating Review\nView FSBT Technologies (FSBT) Website Download Rating\nWe have reviewed project's progress as of December 2018 and indentified that the legal risks related to the token legislation appeared for the project, as the project's token has security token features. The project's GitHub is unavailable. We also note, that the team still intends to obtain necessary licences, the only information which is currently available is that the team has already requested the banking license and waits for the response, as one of the project's competitors, Revolut, provider of a mobile finance app that offers crypto trading, has been granted a banking license from the European Central Bank (https://www.coindesk.com/crypto-friendly-money-app-revolut-wins-eu-banking-license). Taking into account all the abovementioned information, investment score has been decreased to \"Risky+\"\nWe assign the Forty Seven Bank project a \u201cRisky+\u201d rating. This project is a startup in the financial technology field, targeted at a specific milestone for the banking sector, and therefore we recommend participants consider all risks inherent in this sector.\nThe Forty Seven Bank project is entering a promising and fast-growing market. After the adoption of the new PSD2 Directive, opportunities for the creation and development of such banks are opening, and in the near future these new banks will be able to compete with established ones.\nWe commend the high-quality preparation of the documentation for the upcoming ICO and the quality of the interaction with the community. In the communication process we formed a positive impression of the management; we received comprehensive answers to questions concerning all stakeholders of the Forty Seven project.\nWe believe that important issues such as consistency in the development plans and clear timetables for their implementation characterize the founders as serious in their intent.\nHowever, we also note a number of risks inherent in the project.\nThis activity is subject to licensing and monitoring by the regulator. The creation of such a business involves constant compliance with all standards, requirements and regulations, as well as a number of conditions required for obtaining a banking license. We note this as a risk for the entire sector; further business development will be possible only after licensing.\nIn addition, there is growing competition in this market. The introduction of new technologies is widespread, and in this case use of blockchain will enable the project to buy some time and to occupy a market share. However, major players are aware of all the trends in financial technologies and will be implementing similar services for their customers. However, there is a certain inertia in large companies regarding the introduction of new technologies and procedures. A new player in the market is always more flexible, and clearly lacks any legacy solutions that need to be maintained.\nThis rating reflects the above risks as well as those specified in the \u201cProject Risks\u201d chapter.\nForty Seven Bank is a new type of hybrid bank which combines fiat and cryptocurrency on one platform, offering all traditional banking services to users and enabling control of both cryptocurrency and bank accounts. The main idea of the project is to establish a bank as a platform for developers where they can place fintech applications using a profit-sharing model.\nForty Seven Bank is an innovative financial technologies startup based on blockchain technology, which is aiming to become one of the pioneers in the changing financial world and to provide their clients with:\nProfit for all interest parties\nTelegram (7287)\nToken: FSBT\nPrice: 1FSBT = 0.00393 ETH\nMaximum number of tokens to be issued: 11,063,829 FSBT\nToken distribution will be as follows:\n1st Round: Nov 16 \u2013 Dec 16, 2017.\n2nd Round: Dec 17 \u2013 March 31, 2018\nMinimum per customer: unlimited\nMaximum per customer: unlimited\nAccepted currencies: ETH, BTC, USD, EUR\nDuring the ICO a bonus program is offered:\n1st Round: 30%\n2nd Round: 20%\nThe platform offers the following features to members:\nMulti Bank Account Management\nBiometric POS terminals\nFiat /Crypto Currency Conversion\nLoans and deposits in fiat and crypto\nCrypto wallet management\nCredit/debit card management\nMulti-asset account\nInvestments and brokerage\nCard Issuing\nFinancing and Factoring\nLarge-scale payouts in fiat and crypto\nPayment Processing in fiat and crypto\nFrom the above list a number of features require description in more detail:\nMulti Bank Account Management \u2014 enables managing one's accounts with different banks within the EU in accordance with the PSD2 directive, as well as managing one's crypto wallets and credit/debit cards through a single API.\nMulti-Asset Account \u2014 enables one to convert fiat currency into cryptocurrencies and vice versa.\nSmart Support with integrated machine learning techniques is intended to aid in resolving issues and problems between the bank and customer.\nBiometric POS terminals \u2014 terminals enabling payment with a fingerprint (the software enables one to link their bank account/card to their fingerprint which is stored as a token in a secure infrastructure).\nICO services for companies staging their ICOs; the project provides such services as:\nEscrow arrangements\nTransferring digital currencies into fiat equivalents\nSmart ATMs and ATMs of partner banks will provide a variety of services:\nPayment history and analysis, etc.\nFinancing and Factoring \u2014 solutions for obtaining cash for accounts payable\nWhite label \u2014 through a connection to the API, partner banks will be able to provide all types of financial service available from Forty Seven Bank under their own brand, thus expanding the list of provided products to their customers.\nMerchants will be able to use both traditional ways of accepting payments (card, SWIFT), and the cryptocurrency payment system, enabling customers to pay for goods both in Bitcoin and in fiat currencies when buying goods online.\nDevelopers of banking products will have access to the following features:\nScoring, KYC and Compliance Services using machine learning\nApp Platform \u2014 API for developing various applications related to banking services such as mobile applications\nData Analytics and Prediction Models using machine learning\nAPI Payments\nDevDays technology conferences held by the Forty Seven Bank for third-party developers and financial institutions interested in creating products on the basis of Forty Seven Bank services via the API.\nThe following products and services will be offered to traders:\nTrading algorithms and hedging services, based on machine learning\nDerivatives in fiat and crypto\nTrading analytics \u2014 individual trading analytics\nTrader Account Management \u2014 for obtaining various information and reports related to a trading account; brokers, advisors and hedge fund managers will be able to connect and manage multiple accounts\nAccess to partners' exchanges through the API, using the Direct Market Access (DMA) function\nAccess to a private exchange \u2014 i.e. the Forty Seven Bank Exchange\nCryptobonds \u2014 debt digital instrument\nCryptofutures \u2014 digital future contract\nForty Seven Bank will provide a multicurrency wallet for cryptocurrency transactions to all customers. To do so the platform will be integrated with various public blockchains. A customer's interaction with the wallet is illustrated below:\nThe safety of clients' cryptocurrency funds will be ensured by storing their private keys in a secure private database. This database will be encrypted and will be stored in multiple data centers located in different countries. In case a customer loses their private key, they can recover it after verifying their identity upon request from the bank.\nSmart contracts will provide the following possibilities for members of the platform:\nBuilding a smart contract using a visual modeling tool that does not require programming skills\nAn escrow contract service will verify fulfillment of the terms of a transaction between seller and buyer:\nThe buyer initiates a purchase through the smart contract, at the same time the required amount funds is reserved in their account as payment for the item\nThe seller delivers the goods\nThe buyer checks the goods and then accepts or rejects the transaction\nIf the transaction is accepted, funds are transferred to the seller, if rejected, they are transferred to the buyer's account.\nAuction contract \u2014 a seller can place goods on auction, and with each participant bid, their account will be checked to verify that they hold a sufficient amount; the required amount of funds will be locked until another participant outbids. The winner will receive the item, their money will be transferred to the seller.\nA rental payment contract which can track timeliness in rent payments\nA royalty contract designed to interact with owners of copyrighted content\nContract arbitration through a third-party arbitrator for resolution of disputes between buyers and sellers\nLoyalty card contract will track accumulation of points on loyalty cards. Points are FSBL Tokens, intended only for use as a medium of exchange for goods and services at the Forty Seven Bank Loyalty Shop.\nForty Seven Bank App Store \u2014 using the API\u2019s functionality, third-party developers can create their own apps through which clients will be able to use the bank's financial services. Each application will be checked for security and bugs, and the bank will recommend the best ones to its customers. Applications can be used through the bank website and via the bank's mobile application on Android and iOS.\nAccording to information from the White Paper, Forty Seven Bank plans to provide additional services such as:\nWhitelist and blacklist \u2014 through monitoring the activities of clients, criminals involved in money laundering will be identified and their accounts will be recorded in the blacklist. There will also be a whitelist of customer accounts with a clear transaction history. Forty Seven Bank will share these lists with other banks and the public, enabling the latter to assess if is it safe to conduct transactions with these accounts.\nIndividual and Company Authentication Service, including KYC and an OAuth 2.0 protocol designed to verify the identity of contracting agents for financial transactions.\nForty Seven Bank will also issue price-stable cryptocurrencies, secured by equivalent reserves in fiat currencies such as USD or EUR. Customers will be able to buy price-stable cryptocurrencies in order to effectively buy and sell goods in fiat currency, but with the speed of cryptocurrency transactions.\nForty Seven Bank is an ambitious project aimed at creating a BaaS (Banking as a Service) platform able to provide services in both fiat and cryptocurrencies, based upon advanced technologies. Considering such factors as the progress in machine learning technologies, global market growth in cryptocurrencies, growth in demand for online banking and the fact that the bank will meet the requirements of the PSD2, we believe that the products offered by Forty Seven Bank can gain market recognition.\nThe smart contract repository is available on Github:\nFSBT is a cryptographic token of the ERC20 standard on Ethereum blockchain; it is based on the Zepplin-solidity MintableToken.\nToken name \u2014 FSBToken\nSymbol \u2014 FSBT\nDecimals \u2014 18\nThe infrastructural architecture of Forty Seven Bank is as follows:\nThe system will be built on microservices interconnected through a message bus.\nThe API will be divided into domain-specific sections:\nWhite Label API\nAccount information API\nRESTful web services using the JSON Format to encode data will be used as the basis for the API.\nWebsocket API will be used to enable the continuous sending of large data amounts.\nWebhooks will be used by the bank to notify users about events such as payments, through apps.\nFor the integration of biometric methods of identification into mobile operating systems (Android, iOS), the Forty Seven Bank will develop a biometric SDK (software development kit).\nMachine learning will be used for risk management in customer service, fraud detection, etc. When a transaction is processed, the machine learning algorithm classifies transactions by risk levels, all suspicious transactions identified are then later processed by a team of investigators.\nDuring the ICO, the exchange of ETH for FSBT will be made through a system of smart contracts interacting with each other:\nTo protect customer funds stored in cryptocurrency, keys will be stored in a secure private database that is copied, encrypted and replicated to multiple data centers around the world. Thus, customers can be sure that they will not lose their private keys or access to their cryptocurrency accounts. Customers can always recover their account data for remote access to a bank account.\nOver the past few years, interest in cryptocurrency has grown expotentially. Total market capitalization at the beginning of 2018 exceeded $500 bln. Currently the most capitalized cryptocurrency is Bitcoin. The market capitalization for the top five cryptocurrencies exceeds 70% of total market capitalization, and the total number of cryptocurrencies and tokens now exceeds 1500.\nBitcoin\u2019s advocates believe it to be an excellent means of payment which operates outside the control of governments, has global reach and is more secure than traditional payment systems. However, the increase in user numbers and in the number of uncontrolled payments have led governments of different countries to express doubts regarding its use, legality, and control. Governments and investors express concern about security issues (in 2018, $500m has been stolen from a Japanese exchange, Coincheck), drug trafficking, money laundering, aiding and abetting terrorism and the arms trade. The governments and central banks are concerned about the loss of control and regulation of the money supply. However, this has not prevented Bitcoin from becoming part of some people\u2019s everyday lives as well as an important part of the global economy.\nAt this point, the adoption of cryptocurrency by governments is not uniform. Some countries have become advocates, while others have banned cryptocurrencies entirely. There will come a time when all international parties in the monetary sphere will need to legally determine what cryptocurrencies are in with respect to their own countries\u2019 legislation. As long as the issue of cryptocurrencies is not resolved at the legislative level, companies are forced to open accounts in safe countries.\nIn January 2016 the European Union enacted the Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2), which will change existing legislation with the aim of creating safer and more innovative payment systems, coming into force in January 2018. The Directive will change the overall legal framework for business and consumers when making and receiving payments within the European economic area (which includes 28 member States of the European Union plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein).\nChanges associated with PSD2 are largely associated with the digitalization of the banking sector. The pressure that traditional banks are already experiencing will increase, because the Directive opens the financial industry to new players other than banks, creating a much more competitive and innovative environment. The Directive encourages banks to open their API to third parties, greatly increasing competition and the quantity and quality of services in the area of payments. These new players - service providers for accounts (AISP) and service providers for payment initiations (PISP) - are a huge threat to the traditional banking sector.\nCurrently traditional banks are experimenting with blockchain technology as they try to determine its cost and operational efficiency saving potential. They are studying the technology in several ways, including through partnerships with FinTech, memberships in global consortia and the creation of their own solutions. Most banks are exploring the use of blockchain technology to optimize processes and reduce costs. However, they also intend to use additional benefits including improved competitiveness through FinTech, and the ability to use this technology to create new business models.\nWhilst regulators are studying blockchain, the cryptocurrency market continues to grow rapidly. There are new exchanges, companies and banks.\nCambridge University conducted a global study of the cryptocurrency market. Currently there are more than 11m existing wallets and 130 cryptocoin exchanges. 52% of small exchanges have an official license; for major exchanges this figure is 35%. The line between wallets and exchanges is becoming increasingly blurred: 52% of surveyed wallets provide an integrated currency exchange feature, of which 80% offer a fiat-to-cryptocurrency exchange service. In contrast with exchanges, the majority of wallets do not control access to user keys.\nWallet providers are actively implementing new features and enhancing wallet convenience, security, and accessibility as well as a growing list of supported currencies and methods for their deposit/withdrawal.\nThe market for payment services is developing in line with other segments. In this study, the authors collected data from 48 companies providing these services in 27 countries. Most of them are European, while the maximum number of companies are based in the UK and the USA (15% of the total. It should be noted that Forty Seven is registered in the UK, the world's largest financial center). More than 79% of payment operators maintain relationships with the banking sector and payment networks, however, the difficulty of maintaining these relationships is a defining problem for the market.\nIt is logical that with growing demand for and supply of cryptocurrencies a service bringing currency exchange, payments, investment services, deposits and lending together in one place will be necessary. Such a platform will be a cryptobank; the only question that remains is whether the bank will be more secure and convenient than existing exchangers, exchanges and wallets.\nLike a traditional bank, a cryptobank will be integrated in the real economy. It will be required to obtain a license. In addition, it is necessary to create an authorized fund of several million Euros (or other currency depending on the country), plus a team of experts, including financiers, lawyers and IT. After the legislative framework is formulated, issues of legalization and conversion will be solved. Services for this are already successfully operating. Ideas for cryptobanks, payment systems and exchanges and other new services are born one by one. For example, there are now more than 2,000 ATMs for buying cryptocurrency worldwide.\nThus, the potential market for the Forty Seven Bank is quite large, and its development will certainly be related to the popularity and penetration of cryptocurrency in the global financial system, but it can also function as a technologically innovative fiat bank.\nMany cryptocurrency enthusiasts are happy to avoid the world of fiat currency, however, the process of successfully moving from fiat to cryptocurrency requires time and a whole new banking infrastructure.\nDespite the fact that many countries are suspicious of the crypto world, market participants are using both centralized and decentralized exchanges to buy cryptocurrency at the risk of being blocked by their bank. However, change is rapidly occuring, and a number of banking projects that will be part of the system and provide a simple and easy way of dealing with cryptocurrencies have already appeared.\nLet's look at some of them in more detail.\nZODIAQ is a licensed cryptobank in the Comoros, which plans to provide bank account services in Bitcoin and fiat: Deposits, transfers, bank cards, currency exchange, loans and other traditional banking services. It plans to support a total of 30 fiat currencies and 150 cryptocurrencies. It uses machine learning.\nFidor is an online bank with a licence founded in 2009 in Germany working with different trading platforms for cryptocurrency exchange such as bitcoin.de and Kraken. In addition to standard banking services it offers deposits with \u20ac100,000 insurance, loyalty programs and bonus programs, savings bonds, smart community (the facility to ask financial (and other) questions and receive answers from experts, gaining bonuses for both questions and answers); members of the community can suggest new features or products; the staging of crowdfunding campaigns is possible. Each Fidor bank client has a smart account, which is an open system and supports about 25 functions, including acceptance, storage and transfer of money. All of these exist thanks to the bank's API: classic payments and money transfers by mobile phone, e-mail, Twitter account, savings certificates, microloans in one click, currency exchange, purchase of precious metals, transfer of money peer-to-peer, social brokerage (copying behavior of other brokers) \u2014 all are available via a single account at Fidor. There is a function for brokertainment. For example, a client can bet on Bitcoin rates decreasing over the next hour. Another community member can respond to his bet, wagering that at this time Bitcoin will actually grow. Gaming currency can be bought; the bank has its own app store. Foreign exchange trading is carried out through the Currency Cloud partner, and Fidor only sends it information about transactions. Any other Forex startup can connect to the app store and choose which service to use as a client.\nRevolut is a bank offering cards, loans, transfers, insurance, exchange of fiat currency and cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ether), Internet banking, support 24/7.\nWorldcore is a licensed bank. The project has received several European awards; it is creating a digital ecosystem making it possible to trade blockhain assets, a P2P system for loans and an international payment system for money transfers; cash back is available. It uses face recognition technology (FaceKey) and voice recognition technology (VoiceKey).\nCrypterium: this project has raised more than $51m via ICO. The project aims to create a complete product that includes crypto; a cryptocard; mobile account access; infrastructure for payments in digital currency-accepting commercial establishments (at least 42,000 stores worldwide); the introduction of contactless payment technology; a loyalty program and cash back; full banking services, including lending and deposits. The company offers its tokenholders 30% of profits from transaction fees as monthly dividends.\nPolybius raised more than $31m at ICO. \u201cThe project is based on the idea of rethinking classic banks using the most advanced technologies, including blockchain and artificial intelligence,\u201d states the Polybius blog.\nWbb.io \u2014 The \"World Bank Bit\" bank group will be a group of ten existing banks operating under ten jurisdictions (U.S., Canada, Brazil, Germany, Russia, Turkey, China, Japan, Australia, India), providing an opportunity to conduct legal transactions using cryptocurrency and other digital assets. Management will occur via the WBB Group company, based in Switzerland. It will provide loans, payment cards (VISA/MasterCard), currency exchanging and other operations. The ICO will take place in February.\nGlobalbank has raised more than $11m via ICO. Global Crypto Bank aims to help customers safely store both cryptocurrencies and conventional currencies \u2014 Euros, Dollars, Yen, Yuan, etc. Connects crypto accounts with MasterCard and Visa payment systems. Will carry out all usual operations such as payment, exchange and cash withdrawals worldwide and the exchange of cryptocurrency for fiat in different countries. The system will enable one to use cryptocurrency as a means of payment around the world.\nSumming up, over the past year the number of cryptobanks has increased. Currently, several companies are staging their ICOs. With such growing competition, Forty Seven will need to make a considerable effort to occupy a decent market share. We should mention the company\u2019s following competitive benefits:\nThe offer of a platform for developers, enabling access to all infrastructural elements of Forty Seven through its API. Online identification, analysis and forecasting models, and consulting services will all be available to developers.\nA loyalty program, bonuses and brokerage services for private clients, the bank\u2019s own ATMs.\nUse of the platform for commercial companies, for operating business and performing analysis.\nServices for companies aiming to raise funds through ICOs. These will include legal support, agreements on conditional deposits and the support of conversion of digital currency into fiat. Forty Seven Bank will also develop a rating procedure for ICO projects and will provide a thorough analysis of interesting projects.\nAppeal to traders who will be able to combine multiple accounts in one place and will offer them analysis of the effectiveness of their strategies, market monitoring, provide access to a trading platform for trading stocks, options, futures, and Forex.\nThe experience of the team in such successful projects as a gaming platform based on the Odonklassniki social network (one of the most profitable projects of Mail.Ru Group), as well as the team's experience in the development and licensing of FCA \u2014 Bilderlings Pay.\nSince the Forty Seven Bank project involves the creation of a company from point zero and will be implemented on a platform to be developed after the ICO, risks typical for startups are significantly higher than normal in this case. The period between the ICO and the launch of the project is very lengthy, and is primarily due to the need for obtaining permits and licenses. However, the founders point out that there are plans to post the first version of the open API to GitHub in the shortest possible time so that developers can begin to develop applications for the launch of the project.\nFor the reason described above, the project also has a regulatory risk. Forty Seven Bank plans to expand its activities in the UK as an EMI from 01.08.2018 and to obtain a banking license to carry out their activities by 01.07.2019. EMI registration takes 3 months (in the case that the regulator - the FCA, has no questions regarding the submitted application); and may last up to 12 months (if the FCA requests additional documents). There are also mandatory requirements; for doing business as an EMI it is necessary to have sufficient education and knowledge for management purposes and for obtaining an EMI license. This implies the following:\nSenior management must have experience in running such companies. For the FCA this is important; people with no experience in this area usually do not obtain permission.\nThe company should be managed from the UK.\nWith regard to the specified risk, the founders state that the team has enough experience for obtaining all necessary licenses; still the risk remains. And if the terms for receipt of permits and licenses stated in the roadmap are moved, this will threaten the existence of the project and may cause \u201cpanic\u201d for ICO participants.\nWe should also note the growing competition. The Forty Seven project will have to constantly improve the project to compete in its environment, to retain current clients and attract future ones. Given that regular banks have already started to implement blockchain technology in their business processes, the time when giants in the banking business enter the cryptocurrency market is not far away.\nWe have not identified any other significant risks.\nThe team working on the development and implementation of the Forty Seven Bank project is \u201cunited by the common goal of providing high-quality, secure and convenient banking services\u201d.\nLeading positions are occupied by:\nAlexander Malin (LINKEDIN) \u2013 Co-founder and CEO/CVO.\nAlexander has been involved in Forty Seven since April 2017. Responsible for the concept and development of the project. He has wide and successful entrepreneurial experience, being a co-founder of companies like iAM.works and Bilderlings Pay.

He has wide experience in corporate finance, private equity and business development.\nR\u012bgas Ekonomikas augstskola \u2014 Stockholm School of Economics in Riga, 2005\u20132009.\nAristoteles V. Daza (LINKEDIN) \u2014 Co-Founder.\nThe head of the Trading Department, as well as of the Investment and Brokerage Depts. He is a commodities trader working in the areas of oil and precious metals, with work experience in continental Europe, the UK and Latin America. He has an entrepreneurial spirit and has produced successful business ventures in the area of algorithmic trading.\nThe following people are also involved in the development of the project:\nAnton Azamatov \u2013 Chief Technical Officer\nLily Forgeron \u2013 Art Director\nJevgenijs Lesevs \u2013 Head of Internal Audit\nVitalijs Grundsteins \u2013 Software Development Project Manager\nKristi\u0101na \u0160tauere \u2013 Leading Analyst\nNana Zhang \u2013 Community Manager, Asia\n10 people have been recruited as advisors including:\nEvgeniy Bezgodov \u2014 COO of Deiteriy Co. Ltd.\nAlexander Chernyakevich \u2014 CTO of Scand\nMorten Hansen \u2014 Head of Economics Department, Stockholm School of Economics in Riga\nDmitry Dudin \u2014 Head of Products and Services development department at XB Software, Ltd.\nWe would like to note that the team has experts from the spheres of finance, marketing and professionals with experience in obtaining EMI and PI licenses, which will have a positive impact on the launch and development of the project.\nThe development of the Forty Seven Bank concept began in October 2016. According to the founders, the bank is not the ultimate goal of the Forty Seven team. Its main task is to create a hi-tech platform for customers to develop their own trading applications, both on the basis of fiat money and in the crypto world. For the full functioning of the product as a developer platform however, the project will need a banking license.\nTo achieve a high level of service, the team is using modern technologies and developments: blockchain, biometrics, machine learning, etc.\nFrom February to November 2017 several measures were taken to launch the project:\nTeam was formed\nNecessary research and market analysis were carried out\nDevelopment of a detailed project plan\nThe financial model was built, the necessary calculations were made\nDocumentation for the crowdfunding was prepared\nIn November 2017, the first round of crowdfunding was launched.\nKey stages for the platform\u2019s development are presented in the diagram below:\nUpon reaching its hard cap of 36,000 ETH the Forty Seven Bank plans:\nTo obtain a banking license from the FCA in 2019.\nStart processing payments from the beginning of 2019.\nTo offer loans to the amount of about 80m Euro in the first year of trading.\nTo attract 65m Euro in customer deposits by 2022.\nTo obtain a profit margin of over 65% in 2020 equivalent to average returns (ROAE).\nWe believe that, given the successful completion of the ICO and the team's implementation of all plans for the development of the Forty Seven platform since 2017, it is possible to achieve their main objectives within the specified time.\nForty Seven Bank assigns the status of \u2018Top Priority Clients\u2019 to investors participating in the ICO and provides them with a wide range of products and services, as well as a chance to increase their investment in tokens during their subsequent circulation in the secondary market. In particular, the bank provides ICO participants with an annual loyalty rewards program in additional FSBL tokens that may be exchanged in the Forty Seven Loyalty Shop for various products and services. Top priority customers will be able to vote on how the Forty Seven bank will \"help the world\". A portion of the the annual revenue for the bank will be spent on charity, for example on support for an orphanage in London, school repairs, a series of educational conferences for the blockchain community, etc. The biggest token holders will comprise a special council which will choose possible alternatives from a list provided by the team. Options will be submitted to all token holders for vote.\nTo attract investors, the project team is using the following channels:\nAn active Bitcointalk thread\nThe team maintains accounts on popular social media such as Facebook and Twitter\nIts own official channels on Telegram and \u041cedium\nIn order to participate in the bounty program, investors must be members of the official Forty Seven Telegram Group. The prize pool for the bounty program is planned to be distributed as follows:\nCommunity management campaign \u2014 10% (0.5% of the total number of issued tokens)\nAvatar and signature campaign \u2014 25%(1.25% of the total number of issued tokens)\nTranslations campaign \u2014 20%(1% of the total number of issued tokens)\nBlogging campaign \u2013 20%(1% of the total number of issued tokens)\nFacebook campaign \u2013 10%(0.5% of the total number of issued tokens)\nTwitter campaign \u2013 10%(0.5% of the total number of issued tokens)\nTelegram presence campaign \u2013 2%(0.1% of the total number of issued tokens)\nBug tracking campaign \u2013 3%(0.15% of the total number of issued tokens)\nInformation about the project can also be found on the following portals: TOP ICO LIST, ICO GLORY, ICO DAILY.\nMentions of the project can be found in the press (Cointelegraph, YAHOO FINANCE, Coinspeaker, etc.) In total, they can be found in more than 30 news media.\nIn Russia an interview with one of the founders of the company was recently held on a federal channel.\nForty Seven is actively expanding its partner network which includes such well-knwon names as NGrowth, Microsoft Azure, and XB Software.\nIt is important to note that Forty Seven will develop its global marketing strategy only after the bank begins to function as a complete business; currently management has a vision for future promotion of the project as follows: In the last few years cyberneticists have obtained a series of breakthrough results and achievements in such important technological areas as computing power and data storage capabilities (Big Data). In this context, it is quite logical that the management of Forty Seven Bank considers Machine Learning to be an indispensable tool for improving the efficiency and accuracy of its operations, using it in their operational, analytical and trading applications. In particular, in its marketing strategy, the team plans to use Supervised and Unsupervised Machine Learning Algorithms for clustering customer segments and their respective product lines. It should however be noted that the R&D team is using common statistical multivariate regression models in these algorithms, the adequacy of the application of which is based on a number of assumptions that are difficult to check. These include in particular an initial assumption of the Gaussian distribution of the vast majority (and sometimes all) model parameters (random variables) and their finite sums. This in turn implies the need to verify a Gaussian distribution composed of these random variables multivariate random vector. As the vector version of the problem has not yet been solved to date, the use of multivariate regression statistical models will always lead to some distortion of results. However, these approaches are relevant in marketing and are widely used, which makes the use of the above models and algorithms eligible.\nThe project\u2019s economy is based mainly on commissions from providing customers with both classic banking products and cryptocurrency products such as cryptobonds, cryptofutures, etc. In addition to this commission the Forty Seven Bank intends to receive income from providing brokerage services.\nForty Seven is positioning itself in the industry in the first place as a bank platform for fintech applications (both fiat and crypto) but with a much wider range of innovative products and services than others. The bank's revenue is generated in three main streams \u2013 interest income, fee and commission income, and income from trading portfolio assets. The percentage for each revenue stream as part of total operating income over the next ten years is shown in the following diagram:\nStarting from the first year of its operation the bank plans to build its own loan portfolio of borrowers. The size of this portfolio will depend in particular on the amount of assets. The diagram below shows the expected size of the loan portfolio over the next five years in more detail; this portfolio involves high liquidity and a low credit risk. Forty Seven\u2019s management believes that this revenue stream will generate 5% to 10% of total operating income in the first year, with an increase to 15% or more in subsequent years.\nFees and commissions income\nThe team considers this as the main revenue stream for the bank. It is expected that between 2019 to 2023 income from commissions and fees will be more than 70% of total operating income. The bank intends to provide a wide range of possibilities for use of cryptocurrency, significantly lowering transaction costs for converting fiat money into non-fiat and vice versa. Taking into account the high risk of the volatility of digital assets, the bank is building various hedging strategies to reduce this risk for client portfolios.\nThe trading portfolio of the bank will comprise 5% of total assets by 2019. Forty Seven plans to build up this asset class to 26% by 2022. The project has a team of experienced professional traders under the leadership of the co-founder, Aristotle Vargas. Forty Seven traders have experience in markets of fixed income, equities, derivatives and commodity and currency markets.\nThe structure of transaction costs is shown in the following diagram.\nMarketing expenses during the first three years are higher than in subsequent years; this is due primarily to an increase in client activity, as in the first three years the rate of growth for the customer base as a rule is significantly higher. Depreciation of both tangible and intangible assets is calculated with the assumption that their lifecycle is no more than four years. Loyalty program costs are insignificant in initial years, but they significantly increase later. Interest expenses are not so high since attracting capital through deposits from customers and banks is not considered by the management as a primary source. Commission expenses largely correlate with the number of customers and transactions.\nVolume of attracted capital is the most important criterion of the project\u2019s ability to develop its line of products and services. An assessment of capital expenditure for Forty Seven is provided in the following diagram:\nIn summary, we point out that the business model is based on projected growth in number of clients. The aim for the bank's management is to gain 1,000,000 clients over the next three years.\nWe note the high quality of preparation for the financial model presented to us in the course of writing this review. The model involves several options for business development depending on different factors.\nThe FSBT Token is a utility token; it does not provide stocks or shares in the project, nor confers any rights to receive future income or any voting rights. The major factor in any increase in the price of the token will be a constant increase in client numbers on the platform. The project\u2019s creators aim to reach 1m customers within 3 years, which in our opinion is quite possible because the PSD2 Directive has come into effect in the EU, and currently this market segment has a high growth potential.\nThe PSD2 Directive is a big step towards open banking standards. In many respects it will be a great equalizer, giving innovative banks and financial technology companies equal opportunity to create their own type of service; this is the aim for the Forty Seven Bank. This factor can offer a boost to the development of the project\u2019s idea, achievement of its goals and tasks, and thus strengthen the position of the token.\nTo compete in the prevailing conditions the project will develop a wide range of services offered on the platform for a variety of clients, so payments on the platform will be carried out in various currencies: fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies by customer choice, pushing the FSBT token to the side.\nThe fact that the token is not exclusively infrastructural in nature, and that FSBT offers some advantages to its holders, indicates that the Forty Seven Bank ICO is just for raising funds to develop the platform launch it. The following statement from the founders can serve as an indirect confirmation of this: \u201cIn our opinion, ICO is currently the best and quickest way of attracting f\u00adinancing for interesting projects, especially for those that are community driven and aim to develop important infrastructural elements related to cryptocurrencies. We believe that ICO can boost innovation, as attracting funds via ICO procedure companies does not require undergoing traditional bureaucratic procedures. Moreover, as ICO is conducted via smart contracts and blockchain, everything is transparent and project authors have full responsibility for successful realization of the idea.\nICO also offers the opportunity for people from different countries to contribute their digital assets to projects and teams situated in other countries. In traditional economies there are many restrictions and limitations for individuals to participate in such activities and there are no possibilities for people to contribute relatively low amount of funds into projects with promising non-financial benefits\u201d.\nSome of the benefits for holders of FSBT tokens include:\nPriority in the loyalty program of the project\nAn opportunity to contribute to the development of the crypto-community and to help in charity campaigns\nDiscounts and special terms on products and services of the platform\nHigher cashback in tokens when payments made with a Forty Seven Bank debit or credit card\nFree access to the most used mobile and online banking products\nNo fee for the use of an account with multiple assets\nSpecial benefits for participants of the ICO (token holders) depending on amount invested:\n0.1 \u2013 1 ETH:\nFree multi-currency account: IBAN (EUR, USD, etc.), crypto wallets (BTC, ETH, etc.), investment\n1 \u2013 5 ETH:\nFree Visa Classic credit card\n5 \u2013 10 ETH:\nFree Visa Platinum credit card\n25% discount on personal and travel insurance for the payer and two of their family members for the first two years\n10 \u2013 50 ETH:\n30% discount on personal and travel insurance for the payer and two of their family members for the first three years\nNo fee for cash withdrawals in any ATM in the world in the first year\n50 \u2013 100 ETH:\n50% discount on personal and travel insurance for the payer and two of their family members for the first five years\nNo fee for cash withdrawals in any ATM in the world during the first three years\nSpecial terms for trading activities\nMore than 100 ETH:\n50% discount on personal and travel insurance for the payer and two of their family members for the first ten years\nNo fee for cash withdrawals in any ATM in the world during the first five years\nNo fees and charges for the use of any products and services of the platform on a regular basis (excluding loans).\nIn order to encourage holders of FSBT to the store the tokens in their wallets for as long as possible, the Forty Seven Bank will launch a loyalty program on the basis of the tokens. Holders of FSBT will be the priority clients for the bank in the loyalty program. The bank intends to invest 20% of net profit earned in the previous year in the loyalty program, issuing FSBL tokens to be distributed proportionally among existing holders. For every 1 EUR allocated to this purpose, 1 FSBL token will be generated. FSBL issue will be provided by growth in company earnings, and for long-term holders who bet on the business growth, retention of tokens is better economically the longer the period of retention.\nFSBL tokens can be exchanged for various products and services in the Forty Seven Bank loyalty store: Plane tickets, hotel reservations, various gift cards, mobile phones, laptops, gadgets, clothes, food, Forty Seven Bank products and so on.\nTo increase the attractiveness of FSBT at the ICO, a bonus program has been developed (see \u201cInformation about the project and the ICO\u201d) which will be of interest to potential users of the platform.\nBased on the above data, participation in the project will be interesting:\nfor long-term holders of FSBT Tokens \u2014 increase of the price will be directly dependent on the growth of the company's business.\nFor short-term investors \u2014 the bonus system for different stages of the ICO that could lower risks for early participants.",

        "raw_content": "July 10, 2018 July 10, 2018 / Kate Bonello\t/ 1 Comment\nI will never understand people who go to different countries and spend all of their time behind the walls of a resort.\nOK, scratch that.\nI absolutely understand people who go to Jamaica and never leave a resort. I just disagree with them quite intensely and feel the need to question their fears, motivations, and general attitudes toward people of different cultures and socio-economic levels. Because if you\u2019re afraid of Jamaica (or Mexico, or any inner city in the United States) that\u2019s on you. Yes, there\u2019s crime in Jamaica. And in Mexico. And in my neighborhood. And even out in the mountains of Pennsyltucky.\nThere\u2019s a whole world out there where people look and sound and think differently. That\u2019s why you travel. It\u2019s not a reason to stay away or lock yourself up in a resort.\nSo, down off my soapbox.\nPeople will claim that they want a resort for the relaxation. All I will say is go to Treasure Beach. You\u2019ll be really relaxed, verging on comatose. We\u2019ve been twice at this point, and we\u2019re trying to figure out whether we should ever bother going anywhere else on spring break. It\u2019s that great.\nAbout Treasure Beach\nTreasure Beach is a series of bays on the south coast of Jamaica and describes itself as \u201cthe home of community tourism.\u201d Their branding is accurate: it\u2019s a treasure and you will feel like a part of the community.\nThe best known place in Treasure Beach is Jake\u2019s Hotel, and that\u2019s a pretty great claim to fame. It\u2019s a really wonderful, quirky property that defines \u201cboutique\u201d while still being accessible to the community at large. If we were into hotels we\u2019d stay there in a heartbeat, but even if you don\u2019t like hotels it\u2019s worth a stop because the food is good, the drinks are strong, and you will feel welcome.\nThe bays that make up Treasure Beach are, from west to east:\nBilly\u2019s Bay. We\u2019ve seen this area primarily from the sea. There are lots of villas and some reasonably priced guest houses and cottages, but it\u2019s a long walk to\u2026\nFrenchman\u2019s Bay. This is the hub of beach activity, with a few hotels, some restaurants, and some world-class beach shacks for drinking and eating.\nThis is the BUSY bay of Treasure Beach, which gives you an idea of how peaceful it is.\nCalabash Bay. A little quieter, with villas and guest houses and a lot of fishing boats.\nOld Wharf. A quiet area full of villas, with a scalloped coastline that is wavy in some areas, sheltered in others.\nGreat Bay. We\u2019ve never made it quite this far because it\u2019s a really long walk, but it seems to take peacefulness to the next level.\nJamaica has two international airports, in Montego Bay and Kingston. You\u2019ll want to go to Montego Bay for Treasure Beach (and for most other areas of Jamaica except for Kingston itself and maybe Portland Parish).\nGetting to Treasure Beach takes a while\u2013it\u2019s a solid two hours from MBJ, going up and over the spine of the island and down along the beautiful, peaceful South coast. The closest big town is Black River, which goes back to the 17th century and has some relatively old surviving buildings, along with the area\u2019s largest groceries and the river itself.\nSo how do you deal with this drive? Just contact Treasure Tours. In fact, just contact them for most things, they\u2019ll hook you up and make sure you\u2019re happy. They have a team of great drivers, will take you on tours, represent a bunch of villas and guesthouses\u2026and they\u2019ll keep checking in to make sure you\u2019re having a great time. It\u2019s a wonderful company. They will even arrange to have one of their drivers change money for you at a really good rate.\nAccommodations are available at all price points from all of the usual suspects: VRBO, Airbnb, Booking.com, etc. But you can also zoom in on the Google maps and find a bunch of smaller places that can be worth checking into\u2026Shakespeare Cottage, for example, is very centrally located, has rooms as low as $26 a night, and seems to have many repeat guests.\nIn March 2016 we stayed at the Moringa Ingadi Village (hosted by Jayne), just a few minutes from Frenchman\u2019s Bay. It was a wonderful place, quite new at the time, and just a great setup for a group of friends. We needed four bedrooms, so we took Frangipani House and the Moonflower Treehouse and we were quite happy with the accommodation. We had very comfortable rooms, several lovely gathering areas, and a fridge to hold the Red Stripe and mixers. Mission accomplished!\nWe spent our time eating, drinking, swimming, wandering, and adventuring. Moringa Ingadi is a five minute walk to Frenchman\u2019s Bay so we went down every day and battled the waves (it was pretty rough that year), or varied the routine with a walk to the other bays, or took a tour. And of course we spent a lot of time eating and drinking, because Jamaica\u2019s one of those places you could go to just for the food.\nAnd speaking of food: go to Smurf\u2019s. Treasure Beach has a bunch of restaurants, but for breakfast (and perhaps some dinners, and to have a cake baked for a special occasion), go to Smurf\u2019s. Miss Dawn roasts her own Blue Mountain coffee in a cast iron skillet and serves ridiculously large Jamaican or U.S. breakfasts for around JA$650. And it\u2019s delicious!\nThere are two big ones you really should do from Treasure Beach: YS Falls and the Appleton Distillery and the Black River and Pelican Bar. They\u2019re both a pretty full day and are both absolutely worth it at about $50 a person for each day (with some extra for food, drinks, and admissions).\nYS Falls is just a gorgeous place, with a bunch of waterfalls in the rainforest, a zipline, rope swings into the water, and some nice pools and decent food. The water is a little cold for me, so I spent my time wandering around looking at the plants and people watching.\nIt\u2019s not too hard to combine with Appleton, which is fairly old and historic. They really know how to do a tour: they start you off with rum punch, then take you through the process with very engaging guides, and finish you off with a generous tasting session. We did buy some booze there, but it\u2019s not absolutely necessary\u2026and the amount you have to drink pretty much covers the cost of admission.\nBut the drive itself is great. On the way to the falls you pass through a village where the main business is selling spicy boiled shrimp. The plantation with the falls also is a working farm with cows and thoroughbred horses (which seem pretty happy in Jamaica!). Then between the falls and the distillery you pass through a bunch of villages and cane fields and drive down Bamboo Avenue which is just as nice as it sounds.\nSo now we get into a really crazy and wonderful adventure. I\u2019ve talked before about wanting to go to the Pelican Bar, which is driftwood held together with zip ties and rusty nails on a sandbar hundreds of yards offshore. You can just catch a ride on a boat out there, or you can combine it with a trip up the Black River.\nTake my advice: go up the Black River. Make them take you all the way to Sister Lou\u2019s for crabs. Sure, have a drink at the Pelican Bar on the way back, but the Black River is amazing.\nBut we didn\u2019t really know all of that the first time we went, when we went with High Grade.\nWe asked Jayne and Carlisle the best way to do it, and they hooked us up with High Grade, their neighbor on Parottee Beach. Instead of grabbing a boat from Frenchman\u2019s Bay, we got a ride up there and found High Grade\u2026owner of an old wooden boat, proprietor of the world\u2019s smallest beach bar, and sound system aficionado.\nHigh Grade\u2019s boat on Parottee Bay.\nHigh Grade didn\u2019t do this stuff often. He didn\u2019t have a line of patter\u2013and in fact, spoke mostly patois and very little English. But he had one of the most amazing bars I\u2019ve ever been to:\nAfter a lot of preparation and a few Red Stripes, we went up the Black River, looking at crocodiles and mangroves and some guys who were illegally spearfishing. We didn\u2019t make it all the way up to Sister Lou\u2019s, but we loved it.\nThen we went out to the Pelican Bar, but the water was rough and they appeared to be closing up, so we just went back to High Grades for beer, fried fish, and the sunset.\nAnd yes, we were the only people there.\nOh, Tortola. So green, so steep, so lovely. So very, very boozy.\nI\u2019ve been going through pictures trying to find some good ones from Tortola and coming up short\u2013which is odd, because it\u2019s really quite photogenic. It\u2019s the steepest of the Virgin Islands, going from sea level to over 1700 feet in almost no time, and with exactly the kinds of roads that the geography would imply. Crazy roads.\nWe hit pretty much every corner of it while we were there, so that\u2019s not the reason either. We stayed on Cane Garden Bay, went out to both ends of the island, spent an hour or two in Road Town\u2026so, we got around.\nI think the reason it\u2019s so poorly documented is that we were hung over.\nI blame Cane Garden Bay. We stayed at a super budget but very comfortable apartment at Columbus Sun Set, which really worked well for us. A little too well, in fact. We often stay in places where you need to drive to go out for dinner, which tends to make you a little more cautious about your rum punch intake. By staying on Cane Garden Bay, we could walk down the beach to a bunch of different bars and restaurants, and so we did. Honestly, we are too old to bar crawl but we got into the spirit of things.\nThus the title of this post, which is now one of our many inside jokes. Staggering down the beach at night after hitting several bars, looking at the moon shining on the water and watching the boats bob around, I kept saying, \u201cIt\u2019sh sho bootiful.\u201d And it was.\nDecember 28, 2017 / Kate Bonello\t/ Leave a comment\nSassalbo. Yes, the mountaintops are in the clouds.\nIt was always difficult to get any information out of my grandmother. For some reason she liked to keep the family history a little murky. You\u2019d ask about her mother\u2014what she was like, what she cooked\u2014and get a one word answer. (Stew!)\nEvery now and then she\u2019d come out with something a little better. It seems that at some point in her widowhood, Nonna received a proposal of marriage. You\u2019d think she might have jumped on it, what with five kids to support, but she just said, \u201cI\u2019ve been married before.\u201d\nSo given all of that, it\u2019s no wonder I had no idea where her chunk of the family was from. Tuscany was all I knew, and it\u2019s the largest province in Italy. Luckily, my grandmother\u2019s sisters may have been a little more forthcoming. One of my dad\u2019s cousins went to Sassalbo, my great-grandmother\u2019s village, and pointed us in the right direction. It was just spectacular.\nIt\u2019s easy to picture Italy as a conglomeration of all the stereotypical places and things, even though they\u2019re so diverse. Ruins and gondolas and Renaissance cathedrals and a bunch of pictures of the Madonna. You could spend years and still only hit the highlights.\nAnd then there\u2019s Sassalbo, so far off the beaten track that there\u2019s not even a real signpost.\nSassalbo is in the Lunigiana, a mountainous region in the very northern part of Tuscany, known for its castles. The entire region is almost unaffected by tourism despite its incredible beauty. When I Googled it prior to the trip the main results were about UFO sightings and trekking through the Apennines with pack mules.\nAnd having been there, it all makes sense. It is wildly and beautifully remote, exactly the kind of place that lends itself to a shared delusion, whether of lights in the sky or the enjoyability of spending time with mules.\nWe drove through the rain, up and up on a windy two lane road full of switchbacks, and drove right by it into the heart of the national park of the Appennino Tosco-Emiliano. Realizing we missed it, we turned around and tried again. No luck.\nWe had wanted to try the Albergo Giannarelli because my great-grandmother was a Giannarelli. Unfortunately, we kept missing the turnoff and finally stopped along the main road and ate the closest thing to my grandmother\u2019s ravioli I\u2019ve ever had.\nWe were about to admit defeat and continue on to Milan when we finally found the turnoff.\nThe streets are too narrow for cars, so you have to park on the outskirts and walk. Everything is made of stone, and even the houses that aren\u2019t maintained show the craftsmanship involved, as the stones continue to fit together without mortar.\nWe spent a lot of time walking, looking at the view of the white rocks (derivation of the name Sassalbo), and just plain snooping. We saw maybe one or two people the entire time, plus a dog. But there were a few gardens, the sound of rushing water from down in the valley, a pony cropping grass on the hillside, and everywhere the old stone houses and walls, crumbling or patched together, with ferns growing out of the mortar.\nIt\u2019s easy to see why people left, and also easy to see why they would miss it forever. There is nothing there. Nothing. No way to earn a living at all. But the greys and gold of the stone walls contrasting with the vibrant greens of the plants and hills are so ridiculously, deeply, deliciously beautiful that they affected us unlike anywhere we\u2019ve been.\nDecember 15, 2017 December 15, 2017 / Kate Bonello\t/ Leave a comment\nAll travel is life-changing, even if it\u2019s just in little ways. The new experiences and sights and smells and food make you come home a little different from when you started out. If you\u2019re fortunate enough to be able to travel frequently, all those little changes really start to add up.\nThis is true for all travel, but it\u2019s really noticeable when you drive around Italy for a week.\nWhen Buck starting getting grumpy about not having any trips lined up and we started looking into alternatives to the Caribbean, I did my initial research by checking out a company my mom had used in the past, Gate 1. They do a lot of package tours (if it\u2019s Tuesday it must be Turin type stuff), but they also do some packages for independent travelers where you get a flight, hotel, and rental car. It was really inexpensive so I bit, but we won\u2019t do it again.\nWhy not? Because I\u2019m a control freak. The whole idea of putting it all into someone else\u2019s hands just bothers me. Plus, there were some weird issues\u2026the airline changed our flight times and I didn\u2019t find out until weeks later. Our hotel changed at the last minute. Stuff like that. Nevertheless, it really was an extremely inexpensive way to have a grand adventure and it\u2019s hard to pass that up.\nOne of the main ways that they seem to make it inexpensive is that they fly in and out of Milan Malpensa (bad thought! best airport name ever) and you drive down to Tuscany. Malpensa seems have slightly less expensive flights from the U.S. than many of the alternatives. The other way they make it inexpensive is that you stay in Montecatini Terme\u2013not Florence or Siena or a similar expensive city. It worked for us, at least for a short trip.\nMany people seem to be intimidated by driving in Italy, but those people are probably afraid of just about everything. I loved driving in Italy. The drivers are great. The roads are great. The tunnels are great. They even have the best highway rest stops I ever expect to encounter.\nThis Autogrill spans the highway! It may not look exciting, but they actually have good food and serve your espresso in little china cups.\nThat doesn\u2019t mean that you shouldn\u2019t study, or that you should drive everywhere. No matter what country you\u2019re going to, you should always research signs, signals, everything. Just as an example, in Italy they have color coded parking spaces and if you park in a residents\u2019 only spot you\u2019re going to get a ticket. Good to know, right?\nBut the big thing to watch out for is ZTLs: Zona Traffico Limitado. Almost every city or town has limited traffic zones, marked by a big circle, and if you drive though you will get fined. If you then exit and drive through again at another spot, you\u2019ll get fined again. So you need to pay attention, park on the outskirts, and walk\u2013or take a train.\nThe other thing that\u2019s interesting about driving in Italy is that enforcement is almost entirely by camera. They are watching you, and they will send you a ticket instead of pulling you over. If you\u2019re in a rental car, they pass the ticket through the agency and it might be six months or a year later. It\u2019s been more than a year, so I think we\u2019re good!\nI\u2019m talking a good game about driving in Italy here, but I have to admit that when we picked up our Peugeot 208 Diesel (a really great little car) I was a little intimidated. It was around 9 a.m. and we had been in a plane all night and our phones were on airplane mode. We ended up driving around the airport roundabouts a couple of times, taking the wrong exit, then backtracking the whole way and starting over. But once we were on the Autostrada it was amazing!\nThe main north-south highway has around six lanes in each direction when you\u2019re near the major cities, and people absolutely follow the rules. No one hangs out texting and driving 45 miles an hour in the passing lanes. Trucks keep to the right. Everyone\u2019s driving fast, but they\u2019re driving well. It makes a big difference! We were so cautious that a Smartcar passed us, but by the end of the week I was hitting 135 km/hour and worrying about having a ticket mailed to me.\nThere are a bunch of different ways to go from Milan to Tuscany, and we did the oddball one both ways: we hopped off at Parma and headed through the mountains to the coast. I\u2019m sure that heading down via Genoa and being along the coast for most of the trip is really cool, but the mountains were amazing.\nSomeday I need to drive in Germany for comparison, but Italian roads are the best I\u2019ve driven. Their tunnels are absolutely spectacular. They\u2019re long and twisty and you\u2019re allowed to pass, but for some reason it feels easier to maintain your speed than it does in our many local tunnels.\nWhat an oddball town they put us up in! It\u2019s a spa town (that\u2019s what Terme means) that\u2019s mostly relatively new. On the other hand, it\u2019s on the main highway (and train line) that runs from Florence to Pisa. It\u2019s really easy to get just about anywhere in central Tuscany from there, and that made it a great place to sleep.\nWe even spent one day wandering around Montecatini Terme and taking the funicolare up to Montecatini Alto, the ancient village. It was an incredible blast and makes me wonder why I don\u2019t ride the inclines here in Pittsburgh. They\u2019re really just funicolari!\nFunicolare Tracks\nYep, I\u2019m going to be that person. The one who calls Florence Firenze.\nWe started fairly slowly on our first full day in Italy, a little beat up by travel and by the prior night\u2019s wine. But we did manage to make it to Firenze for lunch at the Mercato Centrale (fun, tasty, and worth it, if a little touristy) and then walked for hours and hours. We didn\u2019t bother with the Accademia or Uffizi, largely due to lack of patience with lines, but did get a great introduction to the pleasures of walking around a great Italian city, looking at sculpture, and eating gelato.\nVery Florentine.\nBrunelleschi\u2019s Dome. You just turn a corner and there\u2019s one of the most significant architectural and engineering achievements of all time.\nItaly has the best graffiti.\nYep, there\u2019s a lot of sculpture.\nIn the Palazzo Vecchio.\nDavid\u2019s bum.\nSo much smiting.\nAnd raping.\nOne of my favorite things! This window at Ferragamo holds the custom shoe forms they used for old time movie stars. Katharine Hepburn! Ingrid Bergman! And the shoes are gorgeous to this day, love the platform sandals at the top left.\nMore than once during this trip I wanted to stop, resign my job, and spend weeks just wandering the streets of a particular city. The feeling was strong in Siena. It was individual and eccentric in a way that few American cities manage (although we do live on a unique and eccentric place ourselves) and it generally just knocked me out.\nWe got there in a good way, too\u2013driving through the heart of the Chianti region, looking at grape vines and olive trees.\nThen when we got to the outskirts of Siena we got all fouled up, parked too soon and got lost, got back to the car and drove some more before managing to get a totally rockstar parking spot right outside the ZTL.\nThe whole place was just gorgeous, from the Campo to the Duomo. It\u2019s small, but I could spend a lot of time wandering.\nYou can\u2019t tell from the picture, but there\u2019s a gorge around the old city and you need to cross a bridge to get there.\nIt just felt older than Florence.\nI have a habit of taking pictures of birds on statues. Wait until you see my pictures from Rome.\nSo yeah, this is a floor. To walk on.\nSiena\u2019s Duomo may be the most decorated building I\u2019ve ever seen.\nSaints, apostles, and a wolf suckling a couple of babies.\nIf your cathedral doesn\u2019t have a cow or two it just isn\u2019t doing it right.\nA gelato a day? Maybe more than one.\nAh, Siena.\nThis is one of the lesser known cities in Tuscany (although that might be changing) and was one of our absolute favorites. It was just so great, even in an incredible downpour that kept us from renting bikes.\nIt was an easy half hour drive from Montecatini, we found a great parking spot, and we had a great lunch. So there\u2019s three good things! And it was just really cool\u2013it felt perhaps even more ancient than Siena, thanks to the watercourses and the piazza that was on the footprint of a Roman temple. And their Duomo was spectacular! I want to go back and wander around for days.\nSt. Michele. It\u2019s a very see-through church.\nEvery column and pediment is different, just because.\nLucca is very proud of their tower with a tree on top.\nNowhere else had such mossy statues.\nThe watercourses had little footbridges. I LOVE little footbridges!\nIt was really, really wet.\nOne of my favorite sculptures ever. It shows what to do in each month. It seems that in February you fish, in March you prune trees, in May you go out marauding.\nIn September you stomp grapes, in December you kill a pig.\nLucca\u2019s walls.\nThis trip was so momentous in so many ways that I need to split it up. There will be more\u2026and soon.\nCan you cheat on a region?\nFebruary 7, 2017 February 7, 2017 / Kate Bonello\t/ Leave a comment\nSo it\u2019s been years since I\u2019ve posted. Literally. My bad.\nThis creates a teachable moment about the power of habit that I\u2019ll try to keep in mind, but it also reminds me why I suddenly stopped: I cheated on the Caribbean.\nShortly after we got back from Culebra, Buck started to get a little antsy because we didn\u2019t have any trips planned. And when I say \u201cshortly,\u201d I mean a week or two. So I pulled up ITA Software and started getting busy and found nothing. I mean, it was going to be $800 to go almost anywhere we hadn\u2019t been before. Bonaire or Curacao? Ouch. Barbados? Very pricey. Cayman Brac? Truly, outlandishly expensive. Name an island and it was going to drain the coffers.\nIn a grumpy mood, I said \u201cWe could just go to Italy if it\u2019s going to cost this much.\u201d And so we did! Because I still had it in my head that this blog was about tropical beaches, I didn\u2019t write about the process or about the trip. And then I got out of the habit.\nSo now I want to refocus on this and get caught up. Here\u2019s what I\u2019ll cover before our next trip (To Guadeloupe! It\u2019s France, but with limpid turquoise water!):\nCamping at Cape Henlopen, Delaware\nA second trip to the BVI\nAnother trip to Italy\nThere have been a bunch of other cool things\u2013there are some new discount airlines, we\u2019ve done a lot in Western Pennsylvania (and even West Virginia), yada yada.\nI\u2019m now formally repurposing I Felt Like A Gringo to cover all travel, even if it\u2019s just a weekend at a local lake. Because that can still be interesting and service-y if you do it right, and I\u2019m arrogant enough to think that I do it right. So there.\nMore to come, and not in two years. Maybe not even two days.\nCulebra Trip Report: Golf Cart Paradise\nApril 24, 2015 April 25, 2015 / Kate Bonello\t/ Leave a comment\nIn a nutshell: this island is super-duper fun. But if you want details, read on!\nWe were on Culebra in March and had an absolute blast. It\u2019s a perfect mixture in a variety of ways: it\u2019s very small but has enough activities to keep you busy for a week. It\u2019s relatively undeveloped but has plenty of variety in terms of accommodation and restaurants. It\u2019s incredibly laid-back and relaxing, but offers amazing outdoor adventures.\nWe\u2019d go back.\nIn an earlier post I discussed the massive analytical task of figuring out what combination of big-plane flights and little-plane flights and ferries will get you to Culebra within a reasonable timeframe and budget. Even though we usually love ferry rides we took a little (tiny!) plane back and forth from San Juan and it was absolutely worth every penny, particularly for anyone who isn\u2019t afraid of flying. It was the most exciting plane ride of our lives.\nLeaving from San Juan, you fly down the northern coast of Puerto Rico, then make the crossing to Culebra by flying over a bunch of cays and turquoise water. The approach to the airport is over Flamenco Beach and between two mountains, then you bank sharply and land. The exciting part? It was windy. Very windy. The pilot had to judge exactly how much wind was coming from what direction and let it blow us onto the runway! We saw another plane land shortly after ours and it actually bounced a few times.\nAnd for getting around\u2026there\u2019s a lot of debate on Culebra travel forums about Jeeps versus golf cart, and here\u2019s my two cents. Unless you\u2019re staying miles out of town or on a road where Jeeps are specifically recommended, or unless you have a large group that includes very young children, go with the golf cart.\nIt\u2019s cheaper and more environmentally sound.\nParking is scarce and tight\u2026unless you\u2019re in a golf cart. Then you can squeeze in almost anywhere!\nIt is incredibly, ridiculously fun.\nI had a huge, goofy grin on my face every time I got behind the wheel. And we did go pretty much everywhere in that thing, including the steepest roads with the biggest potholes. In the rain. I want one.\nBuck fastening the GoPro to the canopy. Check out the cooler fastened with bungie cords, our cargo carrier!\nWe stayed in Green Villas Seastar in the Punta Aloe neighborhood, a mile or so down the road from the pueblo overlooking Ensenada Honda. I\u2019ve already reviewed it on HomeAway, but I\u2019ll talk a little bit more about Culebra lodging in general. For the budget traveler who doesn\u2019t need stuff like pools and marble tiles, Culebra is a great place. There are lots of reasonably priced places with kitchenettes, and most of them have nice water views. Our view was seriously world class, and even though we had some bug issues I\u2019d definitely consider staying there again because a) this view and b) what a fantastic location! It was exactly the right distance from the pueblo: far enough, but still close.\nMy office for the week.\nIt was a great apartment for a porch lover (which I am) because the outdoor square footage may have been higher than the indoor, and because we had a visiting rooster:\nPorch Poultry\nLet me just say this up front: I get four weeks of vacation every year, and for the rest of my career I\u2019d be happy to spend one of them stuffing my face in Puerto Rico. And when my career is over, I\u2019d be happy to spend the coldest months there, gaining weight.\nWe didn\u2019t bother with fine dining even though there were a couple of places that qualified. We were happiest eating tacos and fish and churrasco. And sandwiches and street food. Frankly, it is pretty much my ideal diet, especially when there are a lot of strong drinks thrown into the mix.\nFlamenco Beach has a cluster of food kioskos that sell Puerto Rican street food like pinchos and pastellitos, plus sandwiches and pizzas and beer and stuff like sunscreen and refrigerator magnets. My favorite thing there was the helado man:\nIf I had a Star Trek transporter I\u2019d go get one RIGHT NOW.\nHelados are like Italian ices, but you can get them in a huge cone. There was a cart at the beach that had coconut and mango and guava and passionfruit. This one is a helado de parcha (passionfruit) but I\u2019d like to go back (tomorrow would be nice!) and get half parcha and half guayaba (guava).\nWe enjoyed our dinners at Zaco\u2019s Tacos (go for anything derived from pig) and the Dinghy Dock. Frankly, the Dinghy Dock had good food but really exceptional cocktails, so teetotalers might not like it so much. But it\u2019s a great place to eat and drink and look at the water and throw your mahi scraps to the lurking tarpon:\nFood, drink, and wildlife\nStrangely enough, despite the location, we may have liked their churrasco and mashed potatoes better than anything else on the menu.\nThe real gem, though, was the local bakery, Pan Deli. It gets crowded at breakfast because they sell delicious breakfast sandwiches and one of the best breakfast pastries ever: quesitos! Puff pastry stuffed with cream cheese, then drizzled with syrup or sugar or something that gets all crunchy. Oh my god, so delicious. Pan Deli also sells enormous inexpensive sandwiches that are great to pack up and eat at the beach. So, so good.\nBeaches, Snorkeling, and Adventures\nCulebra has beaches that rival the best you\u2019ll find anywhere, and Playa Flamenco deserves every bit of its reputation. It is an absolutely stunning, huge horseshoe of white sand with water exactly the color that you\u2019d expect in a tropical paradise.\nOur weather was far from perfect\u2014some rain most days, lots of wind, and very rough water. We spent a lot of time at Playa Melones because it seemed calmer and less rainy than other beaches, and we also hit Playa Tamarindo (both grande and peque\u00f1o). As usual, the rockier beaches had much better snorkeling than the postcard beaches.\nBig chunks of Culebra are a national wildlife preserve, with no fishing and no development. It shows under the water\u2014lots of healthy reef, mostly featuring the biggest, most colorful seafan forests we\u2019ve ever seen.\nAbout 20 feet off the beach at Playa Tamarindo Grande.\nSeriously, there were seafans everywhere, as far as the eye could see, except when there were also hard corals or when it switched to seagrass to make the turtles happy. And they take their turtles seriously in Culebra. Every beach had a \u201cdon\u2019t pester the turtles\u201d sign in English and Spanish.\nSeriously, don\u2019t bother the turtles. Please.\nThere were a bunch of places we didn\u2019t go because of rough seas, but we spent an afternoon kayaking out to Cayo Luis Pena without landing out there because of high surf. I\u2019d love to go back sometime like June, when the seas would probably be calmer, to swim and snorkel at Playa Zoni and Culebrita and Carlos Rosario without taking our lives in our hands. Kayak rentals are really reasonable, by the way\u2014$45 for a double for half a day.\nWeather aside, we really didn\u2019t get skunked on snorkeling at all. Aside from the seafans, just check out these grey angelfish!\nI\u2019ve never seen two together at once, and these seemed to be buddies. I love their blue lips.\nCulebra has an interesting history\u2014after being used as target practice for decades they kicked the Navy out in the 1970s through sheer force of will and nonviolent protest\u2014and a really unique atmosphere. Everyone who lives there, whether they were born there or got there last month, is incredibly proud of it. They\u2019re proud of their unspoiled beaches, their mangroves, their turtles, their murals. They are really happy when you agree that it\u2019s nicer than Vieques (\u201cit\u2019s more like the big island,\u201d they say). It\u2019s the kind of place where a little eccentricity is more than accepted. It\u2019s welcomed. It\u2019s celebrated.\nI\u2019d love to go back.",

        "raw_content": "Iran leader defends government handling of economy\nTEHRAN, April 30 (Reuters) - Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday dismissed as enemy propaganda criticism of the government for failing to rein in double-digit inflation and said it was tackling Iran\u2019s economic problems.\nThe Islamic Republic\u2019s highest authority also made clear Iran would not back down in a nuclear row with the West and said international sanctions had failed to harm the world\u2019s fourth-largest oil exporter.\nThe U.N. Security Council has slapped three rounds of sanctions on Iran since 2006 for refusing to stop work the West fears is aimed at making bombs. Tehran rejects the charge.\n\u201cWe are not afraid of Western sanctions,\u201d Khamenei told a mass rally in the southern city of Shiraz. Referring to three decades of various U.S. sanctions, he said: \u201cWas the Iranian nation harmed? Never ... We used sanctions for our progress.\u201d\nIran has regularly brushed off the economic impact of sanctions but analysts say they are deterring investors.\nBut the government of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has come under mounting criticism from the media and parliament for steadily climbing inflation of more than 20 percent, which economists blame on profligate spending of petrodollars.\nKhamenei said the West was struggling with more economic difficulties than Iran, with a \u201ccrisis\u201d spreading from the United States to Europe, and inflation was a widespread problem.\nHe said Iran\u2019s \u201cenemies\u201d were using all political and financial means to break the will of the Iranian nation, which he said was \u201cstanding up\u201d despite the pressure.\n\u201cIf you now look at the analysis of foreign (media) you see that one of the main things that they want to use in their propaganda are economic issues,\u201d he told the crowd.\nBut, Khamenei said, \u201cit is wrong to make it look like ... the issue of high prices is because of government officials and officials of different bodies are not paying attention ... they are completely paying attention and know what is happening.\u201d\nConservatives retained their grip on parliament in a March election, but analysts say deputies are expected to be more vocal in criticising Ahmadinejad ahead of a presidential election in 2009, when he is expected to stand for re-election.\nKhamenei, who has final say on nuclear and other key policy areas and has previously praised Ahmadinejad\u2019s performance, said the government and parliament shared responsibility for overcoming economic hurdles.\nIranians should consume less and save more, he said.\n\u201cWith the guidance of the country\u2019s official bodies ... the Iranian nation despite all the problems that global enemies are trying to impose on it will be able to overcome them,\u201d he said.

        "raw_content": "Home State News Gujarat A one-of-a-kind Bookstore now open at Ahmedabad University\nA one-of-a-kind Bookstore now open at Ahmedabad University\nAhmedabad: In this age, when online e-commerce is threatening the existence of bookstores, Ahmedabad University is launching a major initiative to build a University Bookstore. There is a large population of people in the society who are unable to discover authentic material that is researched well, that is factual, and that help build advanced knowledge on issues and ideas \u2013 more than what newspaper articles or popular writings provide. The Ahmedabad University Bookstore is an attempt to fill this gap.\nThe Ahmedabad University Bookstore is designed as a space where thoughtful citizens and visitors of the city gets to engage with the university and its intellectual culture. The Bookstore is purported to provide a backdrop against which the society at large gets to discuss, debate and exchange thoughts, ideas and literary discourses with utmost freedom laden with sensitivity. It is at once conceived to be a stage (for book launches, workshops, and intimate conclaves) as well as a lounge (for quiet and reflective reading and writing).\nThe launch of the Ahmedabad University Bookstore was preceded by a panel discussion, led by some of the leading academic thinkers: Professors Pankaj Chandra (Vice Chancellor, Ahmedabad University), Kunal Basu (University of Oxford) and Apoorvanand (University of Delhi). The panel discussed about the need for university education as a systemic process in the context of the city in which it exists, and how its culture is nuanced by a discourse between the city and university. The Bookstore, \u201cis an attempt to provide a reflective stage for interdisciplinary thinking and its expressions to shape the concerns of society and its culture\u201d said Professor Chandra. Speaking on the subject Professor Chandra also said, \u201cThe fact that there are no university bookstores in India which house an eclectic assortment of deeply-researched books is what triggered this idea among the leadership at Ahmedabad University. Moreover, the initiative is in line with our vision of developing Ahmedabad University as a comprehensive university driven primarily by research that focuses on real concerns of society\u201d.\nThe thoughtfully crafted space at Ahmedabad University hosts an impressive array of books by well-known publishers, university presses, academics and thought leaders by virtue of their deep expertise in niche fields. From Gandhi to Marx, from Pinker to Diamond, from algorithms to aesthetics \u2014 there are books stradling multiple disciplines in this unique Bookstore. To gaze across the shelves is like considering a world of opportunities. Professor Chandra, speaking about the exclusive collection of books in the store said, \u201cThe bookstore will get young people to read broadly and read deeply. It\u2019s a must-visit place for reflective citizens of the city as well as visitors, who look for a reflective oasis in this wonderful city, to indulge in the world of words and ideas.\u201d\nAbout Ahmedabad University:\nAhmedabad University is a private, non-profit university dedicated to rigorous academic pursuit with a focus on building inquiry as a value through interdisciplinary learning. The university provides liberal education that prepares students to think deeply and creatively across disciplines and emerge as independent thinkers and compassionate leaders who can innovatively engage with the complex challenges of society. Established in 2009 by the Ahmedabad Education Society, Ahmedabad University is located in India\u2019s first UNESCO World Heritage City and it offers programmes across its four schools and four centers at bachelors, masters, and doctoral levels. The university\u2019s innovative pedagogical models focus on experiential learning, and its academic philosophy is founded on a belief that good theory based on rigorous research on field data leads to good practice.\nPrevious articleMatriKiran students paint graffiti at DC office, Gurugram\nNext articleGurgaon students represent India at Bishkek\u2019s 140th-anniversary celebrations",

Year 2013 wasn\u2019t as it should be because of rain and E-Runner went out on wet tires. Regardless, last year Nobuhiro \u201cMonster\u201d Tajima won the EV class with a time 09:46.530, which was the seventh time in the history of Pikes Peak Hill Climb and gave him fifth place in overall standings.\nNow, we are looking forward to the third attempt and hoping for a podium finish for an EV for the very first time in America\u2019s second-oldest motor sports race behind the Indy 500.\nTechnically, the E-Runner PIkes Peak Special is probably similar to the one that was field in 2013. We still see two motors (GKN EVO eDrive systems), SIM-Drive controller and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries MLiX cells.\nHere is a brief description of Nobuhiro \u201cMonster\u201d Tajima:\n\u201cNicknamed \u201cMonster\u201d by fans and foes alike, the 63-year old driver shows no sign of retiring from the PPIHC any time soon, and that\u2019s great news for fans who will be on the course again this year to watch the famed auto-motorcycle classic.\u201d\n\u201cHe made his racing debut in 1968 in the All-Japan Dirt Trial Championship where he won his first race. In 1983, he established Monster Sports International, a motorsport preparation shop. In 1986 he established Suzuki Sport and returned to the World Rally scene where he competed driving a Suzuki Cultus in the Olympus Rally.\u201d\n\u201cIn all, he has taken nine All Japan Dirt Trial Championship titles, four WRC Championship class wins, two class wins in the Asia-Pacific Rally Championships, and his ten Pikes Peak crowns.\u201d\nSo, if anyone has a shot at getting an EV on the podium, our money would be on \u201cMonster\u201d Tajima.\nTags: monster tajima, pikes peak, pikes peak hill climb\n2 Comments on \"\u201cMonster\u201d Tajima Commits to Electric Racer For 2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb\"\nGO NOBU!! All torque, and no altitude sickness to slow down the motor, an EV taking the crown is inevitable. It\u2019s just a question of when?\nThat\u2019s a chick magnet, add another seat for babes, Nobu",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Go Patriots!\nPetey. By Ben Mikaelsen. 1998. Hyperion Publishing. ISBN 978-078681336-0.\nI\u2019m sure you have had the unfortunate experience of someone being mean to you. It feels horrible, doesn\u2019t it?\nThis book is very special to me. Petey by Ben Mikaelsen, is the very touching story of Petey Corbin. This book reminds us that all people deserve respect and that one person really can make a difference.\nIt\u2019s 1920 in Bozeman, Montana and the Corbin family has just been blessed with a baby boy named Petey. However, he looks completely different from other ordinary babies. Because of this, the doctors misdiagnose him as an idiot. But Petey has a severe case of cerebral palsy, a condition that\u2019s caused by brain damage before, during, or shortly after birth, and results in poor control and weakness of the muscles. Two years later, the family sends him to the Insane Asylum in Warm Springs, Montana, because they can\u2019t care for him anymore.\nWhen he gets to the Insane Asylum, he gets put in the Infant\u2019s Ward. That\u2019s when his life looks like it\u2019s going to take a turn for the worst. The room is crowded, he isn\u2019t cared for properly by the nurses, and he\u2019s lonely because he has no friends. But then he starts to become really good friends with Esteban, a worker at the hospital. But that friendship doesn\u2019t last long because Esteban loses his job. When Petey is eleven years old, he gets moved to the Men\u2019s Ward. While living in the Men\u2019s Ward, Petey makes friends with the mice and a nine-year-old boy named Calvin, who\u2019s mildly retarded and has severe club feet (deformity of the foot where the foot turns inward). They start to talk and do everything together. Petey also makes friends with Joe, Cassie, and Owen, three of the workers at the hospital. Unfortunately, they all left the hospital too. After living at the hospital for a long time, Calvin and Petey get transferred to different nursing homes.\nMeanwhile, Trevor Ladd, a 13-year-old boy, has just moved to Bozeman, Montana, because his parents want to get better jobs. He doesn\u2019t think it\u2019s fair at all. It doesn\u2019t get any better when he\u2019s walking home from school one day, and sees three neighborhood bullies throwing snowballs at Petey who now lives at the Bozeman nursing home. After Trevor chases them off, he starts to become really good friends with Petey. The bullies now harass not only Petey, but now Trevor, too. He\u2019s determined to make Petey\u2019s life better by getting him a new wheelchair because the one he uses is old and is falling apart, and by finding Petey\u2019s old friend Calvin. Will he be able to find Calvin? Will he get him a new wheelchair? Do the bullies continue to taunt Trevor and Petey?\nRead Petey by Ben Mikaelsen to find the answers.\nThemes: elderly, children, cerebral palsy, caring, bullying, friendship, abandonment, caring,\nInterest level: 6th grade up\nAuthor website: Ben Mikaelsen\nThis entry was posted in booktalks and tagged booktalk, mikaelsen, petey.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Death and Dying / Nurse Should Know, a Little Empathy Goes a Long Way!\nThe below is a true story. The names have been changed but the story-line has not been altered. It\u2019s my fear that this situation happens all too often. If that\u2019s the case, my heart goes out to families who are treated like a number and a commodity. It only takes a minute to show kindness, empathy and respect.\nIt was a typical New Year\u2019s Eve. Grace and Tom always stayed in and made a gourmet meal, shared a bottle of wine or two, watched Dick Clark\u2019s Rock\u2018n New Year\u2019s Eve on the television and somehow managed to stay awake long enough to watch the ball drop in Times Square welcoming the New Year \u2013 except this year. They were enjoying their meal which this year consisted of all organic vegetables, grilled filet mignon when Tom looked up at Grace with his eye bulging and his face turning red. Grace realized Tom was choking. She leaped from her chair knocking her plate on the floor as she managed to get behind Tom and place her hand around his sternum, attempting to do the Heimlich maneuver. Tom knew what was happening but was unable to verbally communicate. He knew Grace wasn\u2019t strong enough to help, so he had instinctively picked up his cell phone, dialed 911 and handed it to Grace. The operator heard the confusion and Grace yelling as she frantically was trying to dislodge the object caught in his throat. Thirty minutes later, the attending emergency room doctor pronounced the time of death to be 8:36 p.m. on December 31, 2016. All this had transpired in less than ninety minutes.\nGrace was trying to wrap her mind around the fact that less than an hour ago, they were enjoying a quiet meal and now her perfectly healthy, although overweight husband of thirty years was dead at the age of 56. There she stood alone in the emergency room looking at Tom with tubes down his throat, IV lines in his arms, shirt wide open, his skin colorless and eyes lifeless when a nurse approaches her and said that they would have to call the county medical examiner, who in turn would want to know what funeral home to call. Grace replied, \u201cMedical Examiner? Why, I don\u2019t want an autopsy! Funeral home, never thought about it. I can\u2019t answer that right now.\u201d The nurse then said \u201cYou may want to think about what organs will you allow us to donate?\u201d \u201cWhat do you mean organs to donate! We didn\u2019t talk about this. Tom hasn\u2019t even been dead ninety minutes and you expect me to give you an answer! \u201d Grace shouted. It was that moment Grace realized she had no car as she rode in the ambulance and no support. The only children they had were their two cats who almost 20 years old, she needed to call a friend. She called Derek and Ann, their best friends.\nUpon receiving the call, Derek and Ann immediately left their New Year\u2019s Eve party and headed to the hospital. When they got there, the charge nurse lead them back to the emergency room where they met Grace and saw Tom. Derek went over to pay respect to Tom, when the charge nurse briskly walked in told him to step aside as she started placing drops in his eyes and then taped them shut with surgical tape. Grace cried out, \u201c What are you doing?\u201d . The nurse replied, \u201cGetting him ready for Gift of Life \u2013 most people at minimum donate their eyes.\u201d Derek looked at Grace and asked if she approved this. Grace did not. In fact, she didn\u2019t want to donate anything. She felt it was expected by the hospital and that she was being pushed into something she was not comfortable with. Derick asked Grace if she signed any donation authorizations, she answered no. He took her by the hand and they walked up to the nurse\u2019s station and explained to the head nurse that organ donation would not be an option, nor would there be any more discussion about this. The nurse then requested that Grace sign a form stating that \u201cGift of Life\u201d was explained to her and she declined. Grace signed it, but mumbled something to the effect that \u201cGift of Life\u201d was not explained and that she felt bullied. Derek put his arm around her and walked her back to Tom\u2019s room.\nDerek nor his wife Ann were not new to death care. Derek\u2019s a supervisor for the township cemetery and had also worked for many years on the county\u2019s transport team. He knew the crew well. Ann had worked at a funeral home for the past three years and kept close ties with her past employer. They could clearly see that Grace was being treated benignly. There was no empathy nor explanation, just an attitude of checking things off a list. While this may have been a routine death for the emergency room staff, it was Grace\u2019s first. This was not an expected death, it was a very unexpected and tragic death. Being made to feel like just a number and having Tom\u2019s body being treated like a commodity with vultures circling up above take his body parts was unconscionable. Grace had so many questions and no one from the hospital staff was taking the time to answer them.\nThe three primary questions that were not addressed were:\nWhy did the medical examiner have to be called?\nWhy would we need an autopsy, if he died choking on a piece of steak?\nWhy do I have to donate Tom\u2019s organs?\nDerek and Ann knew the answers, only because they are familiar with end of life protocols due to their professions. Together they explained to Grace the following:\nUnless a person is under hospice care or has a terminal disease that\u2019s on record, its standard operating procedure \u2013 even if death occurs in a hospital, to call the medical examiner. The medical examiner\u2019s (ME) role is to ensure there was no foul play and to sign the death certificate. If the ME suspects, there is something beyond the obvious they will request an autopsy. Things aren\u2019t always what they appear. The cause of death may be a heart attack that triggered Tom choking. Sometimes there is foul play is involved. Regardless of the \u201cwhy\u201d Michigan\u2019s law states the ME must review the situation.\nOnce the ME has conducted an investigation, a decision will be made regarding an autopsy. If the ME decides to conduct an autopsy, the deceased is taken to a local hospital for it to be performed by a pathologist. Once it\u2019s completed the deceased will be transported to the funeral home the family selected. If the ME makes the decision not to conduct an autopsy, the county\u2019s care team will transport the deceased from place of death to the family\u2019s funeral home of choice.\nOrgan donation is something the medical community supports. By no means is it a requirement. From a medical viewpoint, if organs or body parts are going to be harvested, the sooner the decision is made after death and the faster this process is conducted the better chance of success. Long story short, time becomes a critical factor.\nAfter listening to the explanations, Grace blurted out, \u201c I don\u2019t want an autopsy performed! It doesn\u2019t matter how he died, he\u2019s dead. Nothing will bring him back.\u201d The thought of him being dismembered and studied like a science project physically was making her shake. Derek looked her in the eye and told her that by law she didn\u2019t get to make that decision. He went on to further share that medical examiners don\u2019t always require an autopsy to determine the cause of death. Bottom line, she needed to understand the role of the ME and respect the decision. While she didn\u2019t like what was happening, at least it was beginning to make sense. She couldn\u2019t understand why the head nurse didn\u2019t take the time to explain this to her, she would have been less angry and anxious. If the truth be told, she would have felt like the hospital cared that her husband died, versus feeling like she was just another case file.\nFifteen minutes later the head nurse came back into the room and said, \u201cThe county removal team is here, you\u2019re going to want to leave the room. You don\u2019t need to see this.\u201d Just then, the county\u2019s care team walked in the room. They had heard what the nurse said and acknowledged Derek. The lead care team member Brent introduced everyone to Grace. He immediately stated that she did not have to leave. In fact, they would prefer if she stayed. Brent began his conversation by asking if Tom was a Veteran. Grace shared that he was not. She asked why. Brent explained that if he was, they would honor him by placing a flag over his body as they wheeled him from the emergency room to their vehicle. Grace let them know that although he wasn\u2019t a veteran, he loved the military and was active in politics. She asked if he could still have a flag draped over him. \u201cAbsolutely,\u201d Brent responded. He then further explained what the transport team was going to do, how they were going to do it and asked if she would like to participate. Grace responded no, but Derek jumped in and said he wanted too. At that moment, the head nurse became visually upset and stormed out the room. Everyone looked at each other with dismay. Brent turned to Grace and said, \u201cPlease don\u2019t let her lack of empathy ruin this moment. Together we are going to honor your husband the best we can. We will treat him with the dignity and respect he deserves. There is nothing to be afraid of. Would you like to walk with us down the hall and to the van to see him off?\u201d Grace replied yes. Together Derek and Brent placed Tom on the gurney, draped a flag over his body and walked down the hallway to the transport van. Grace kissed the top of his head as watched as his body was loaded into the vehicle.\nSo what\u2019s the lesson? The fact that Tom died couldn\u2019t be changed. What could have been avoided was the lack of empathy from the head nurse. Grace had no idea what the head nurse had been dealing with prior to Tom\u2019s arrival. Frankly, nor should she care. The head nurse is paid to handle stressful situations. It doesn\u2019t matter if Tom was the first or tenth death that day, it was the first for Grace. If the head nurse had taken the time to set the expectation of what must happen over the next few minutes and why, Grace would have felt a little more in control and much anxiety would have been eliminated. A little bit of empathy would have gone a long way. When death happens in an emergency room, the first thing that should be addressed is educating the survivors of the next steps and decisions that must need to be made \u2013 including the why. Organ donation can be a part of the discussion but should never be the focal point. One should not assume nor openly have the family feel like their loved one is a commodity with vultures circling up above for their next meal.\nRegardless if you are a business or a person, you only get one chance to make a good first impression. In this case, the first impression is an experience. Regardless of the message, it can be delivered with professionalism and respect. As a person experiencing this, it\u2019s important that you keep in mind, you have rights. If you are not comfortable with what\u2019s happening, ask. It\u2019s imperative that you or a family member are your own advocate.",

        "title": "Joshua Scott Davis - For the Strength of Youth",
        "raw_content": "Note: In our church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints), members of different ages are given opportunities to speak in the main service called Sacrament Meeting. On this day, Josh was asked to speak on the church's pamphlet, For the Strength of Youth. The booklet contains guidance for young people in maintaining high moral standards in today's world. The following text is what Josh prepared at home before he spoke at church.\nFor the Strength of Youth (Church Talk)\nI was asked to talk on a topic related to the For the Strength of Youth Pamphlet. As I was pondering on what I section I should choose to speak about, I felt that I should address on the guide as a whole.\nLiving in the land of Uz during the Old Testament was a man named Job. We read about how God favored Job for his trust in the Lord, \"a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God.\" The Lord gives Satan leave to tempt Job with afflictions to his animals, his family, and to Job himself. Yet, Job remains strong and praises and worships the Lord.\nLooking into the now, we have it easy, don't we? We don't have temptations like Job had. Or do we?\nWe are living in the fullness of times, when temptations are at its all time high. We need to learn how to, first off, recognize that we are being tempted by the devil, and to be able to consciously make the decision to cast Satan out of our minds and to follow the commandments that are set forth in our religion. But how can we learn to do this? How can we learn what is expected of us?\nWe have been blessed to have been given the opportunity to each one of us have this For the Strength of Youth pamphlet given to us by the First Presidency of the Church. With it, we can have the power to resist temptation and to make our homes and communities a better and more spiritual place.\nBut are we living it up to our potential? Is there still contention and confusion in our very own area? Does it seem like this spiritual guide is not being executed fully?\nIs simply owning a copy of For the Strength of Youth pamphlet going to make a difference? Is it only for teens anyway? This pamphlet is only useful if it is read, and pondered on with an open, humble heart, and with a desire to fulfill our duty to God.\nYou can compare it to fine-tuning a musical instrument. As many of you know, I am in the symphonic band at the junior high school. I play the euphonium, or baritone, which is pretty much a mini tuba. Anyway, when we warm-up and tune as a class in band, the band director instructs us to pull out the tuning slide, which is a part on all band instruments that I am aware of. As temperatures change, the metal shrinks or expands, thus, there is a different pitch. Pull in or out the tuning slide, and it changes the size of the tubing to compensate to exact concert Bb. As I was saying, he tells us to pull out our tuning slides a couple inches, expecting to be wrong, or incorrect, then listening closely to the band room tuner and our own tone as we slowly move our slide in, until the sound matches. Often, we like to assume that our tune is perfect and silently refuse to consider ourselves sharp and to take the effort of changing until the tune is exact.\nNow, back to For the Strength of Youth. We need to study and approach each standard with humility and a willingness to change if we are to improve. We need to consider the fact that we might be wrong in some areas, and that Satan is trying to make us think that we are justified or that we aren't doing anything wrong at all.\nThe temptations to Job in the Bible are similar to what we have now. We also have many others with the advances in technology like the Internet. We can all use For the Strength of Youth pamphlet to strengthen our individual souls, and to one day be made glorious like Jesus Christ. Satan wants us to think that we won't be cool or esteemed, but people will have respect and will look up to you like you couldn't believe. You will be blessed with earthly miracles, but more so for the next life if only we believe and cast our burdens and faith on Christ.\nI encourage all of you, to study this with faith and humility as a family. If all of us apply these standards in our lives, we personally will be happier, and everyone else in this world will benefit, and may feel the spirit inside of us and come to an understanding that this is the Church of Christ.",

I could relate to almost everything she wrote. I didn\u2019t expect to take so many notes just from the introduction. There are three specific quotes I would like to share with you today.\n\u201cDepression snuck up on me; there was a shell of a woman where I once was. My ideals, my hopes, my joy, were snatched away before I had the chance to notice. Pleas for help aimed at heaven seemed to be met with silence. The message was clear: this was my life, and I needed to just deal with it.\u201d\nI felt like she was writing out my story. This is EXACTLY how I felt. I didn\u2019t know who I was anymore. In a single moment, my identity completely changed.\n\u201cAdjusting didn\u2019t go well. Anger and resentment were living just under my skin. Exhausted, out of my mind, and still hormonal, every day felt like a fight. Feelings of desperation were like an ever present shadow over the good in my life. Experiencing hope in Jesus felt like chasing gold at the end of a rainbow\u2026 getting to it was always out of reach. Motherhood was something I planned for, something I wanted, so why was living it out so drastically different from my expectations?\u201d\nAgain, was she reading my mind? No matter how hard I tried, I couldn\u2019t see the good past all of the bad. I felt like the darkness was closing in on me and I couldn\u2019t find an escape. I have always wanted to be a mom, I had looked forward to it my whole life. Why wasn\u2019t it going the way I had expected \u2013 the way other mom\u2019s proclaimed it to be?\n\u201cThe lifetime commitment that is motherhood will, many days, stretch you beyond what you think you can handle.\u201d\nCan I get an AMEN?!?! I never thought I could handle some of the things I have gone through in the last several months. I am so much stronger than I ever knew I could be. God has been there for me through all of it. He never let go of me and he never left my side.\nIf you missed last week\u2019s post about the forward from Desperate, you can find it here.\nThis entry was posted in Columbus, Ohio Photographer, Columbus, Ohio Photography, Motherhood and tagged Columbus, Ohio Photographer, Columbus, Ohio Photography, desperate book, mommy encouragement, motherhood.

They need to be done every day, at least once, and sometimes multiple times a day. People expect to eat every day. They use dishes every day. The mail (electronic and paper) comes every day. Every day, people in the house get things out and use them, and sometimes (usually) forget to put them away. The bed gets slept in, clothes are worn, bathroom sinks get used\u2014every day! If you don\u2019t have a plan to deal with these things in a daily, routine way, dirty things will pile up very quickly. It\u2019s usually this daily living mess that quickly overwhelms you and makes you think your house is a wreck.\nSome things only happen every few days or once a week. The garbage gets collected weekly. Laundry day is Friday and grocery shopping is on Saturday. Once a week the gerbil cage gets cleaned out (usually), books go back to the library, houseplants get watered, vacuuming and dusting happens, and leftovers are cleaned from the fridge. These kinds of things are less of a crisis on a daily basis, but they tend to become critical if they get neglected. Plants and animals don\u2019t thrive when you neglect them. Library books accumulate fines. The house starts to get dirty and downright unsanitary if you neglect it for more than a week or two. Most of the things on the weekly list tend to be important, but not urgent.\nThen there are the things that are done about once a month. These include things like paying bills, cleaning heater/AC filters, wiping down walls (where people trail their hands), wiping out the refrigerator. The biggest problem with these kinds of things is that they don\u2019t happen frequently enough to really be on your radar. The other problem is that some of these are critical, like paying your bills on time, and come with a steep penalty when you don\u2019t do them! Other things are non-critical, but if you never do them, that part of your house can become inefficient (clogged filters) or they get really horrible after a while (hello, refrigerator!).\nLists of once-a-month chores can seem overwhelming. But I think this is mostly because for some reason when we see a whole list, we think it all has to be done right away. Not so! Things that need to happen once a month don\u2019t all have to be done on the same day (and probably shouldn\u2019t be). This is exactly why you need a system, so that you can transfer this monthly list onto the daily/weekly list of things you do. One week you pay the bills, another you wipe down walls and clean out the refrigerator. Having a system allows you to spread these things out over the course of a month, so they get done, but don\u2019t overwhelm you.\nFinally, there are those things that only happen seasonally or annually. Things in this category include paying annual bills (like insurance), gardening, getting the car inspected, swapping seasonal clothing, and holiday decorating. Many of these activities depend on where you live and whether you have your own home or a garden. This kind of stuff is really hard, because it just doesn\u2019t happen often enough to remember (sorry, Officer\u2014didn\u2019t realize the inspection sticker was expired). Some of it is important, but doesn\u2019t have a deadline, like deep-cleaning your house. Some of it does involve looming deadlines (holidays come to mind), but exactly how you go about it is flexible.\nThe point is, if you have a system, you get these things on your calendar so you don\u2019t miss deadlines or get into a holiday crisis. Many of the things that happen annually need to have a sub-system of there own. A sub-system can help you tackle big projects so you don\u2019t get overwhelmed or just put it off indefinitely. Think about holidays or vacations. These are big projects that have a lot of moving parts. You need to have some sort of \u201ctemplate\u201d that you can repeat from year to year.\nSo where do you start? I suggest you sit down and brainstorm things that happen in these different time frames. I made a list on my computer starting with all the daily things I could think of (food, cleaning). Then I moved on to weekly and monthly (cleaning, bills). Then I listed each thing I could think of by season (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter) and then what happened annually (holidays, birthdays, vacation, etc.). List them all out so you aren\u2019t just winging it! If you\u2019d like some help thinking of things that might belong on your list, you can download a free printable list Household Systems by Time. Remember, the list is just to stir your own thinking\u2014not everything will apply to you. Please don\u2019t get overwhelmed by this list and think you can never do it! If you feel overwhelmed by it (or worse, you feel like a failure), you probably just need help getting a system set up so these things will happen on a regular basis. We\u2019ll talk in another post about how to start creating some of these systems.\nGet a FREE printable checklist here",

        "raw_content": "THE H-BOMBS IN TURKEY\nAmong the many questions still unanswered following Friday\u2019s coup attempt in Turkey is one that has national-security implications for the United States and for the rest of the world: How secure are the American hydrogen bombs stored at a Turkish airbase?\nThe Incirlik Airbase, in southeast Turkey, houses nato\u2019s largest nuclear-weapons storage facility. On Saturday morning, the American Embassy in Ankara issued an \u201cEmergency Message for U.S. Citizens,\u201d warning that power had been cut to Incirlik and that \u201clocal authorities are denying movements on to and off of\u201d the base. Incirlik was forced to rely on backup generators; U.S. Air Force planes stationed there were prohibited from taking off or landing; and the security-threat level was raised to fpcon Delta, the highest state of alert, declared when a terrorist attack has occurred or may be imminent. On Sunday, the base commander, General Bekir Ercan Van, and nine other Turkish officers at Incirlik were detained for allegedly supporting the coup. As of this writing, American flights have resumed at the base, but the power is still cut off.\nAccording to Hans M. Kristensen, the director of the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, underground vaults at Incirlik hold about fifty B-61 hydrogen bombs\u2014more than twenty-five per cent of the nuclear weapons in the nato stockpile. The nuclear yield of the B-61 can be adjusted to suit a particular mission. The bomb that destroyed Hiroshima had an explosive force equivalent to about fifteen kilotons of TNT. In comparison, the \u201cdial-a-yield\u201d of the B-61 bombs at Incirlik can be adjusted from 0.3 kilotons to as many as a hundred and seventy kilotons.\nIncirlik was built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the wake of the Second World War; when Turkey joined nato, in 1952, it became a crucial American base during the Cold War. With a flight time of about an hour to the Soviet Union, the base hosted American fighters, bombers, tankers, and U-2 spy planes. And, like many nato bases, it stored American nuclear weapons. nato strategy was dependent on nuclear weapons as a counterbalance to the perceived superiority of Soviet conventional forces. The threat of a nuclear attack, it was assumed, would deter Soviet tanks from rolling into nato territory. And granting nato countries access to nuclear weapons would strengthen the alliance, providing tangible evidence that the United States would risk a nuclear war for nato\u2019s defense.\nBy the mid-nineteen-sixties, more than seven thousand American nuclear weapons were deployed in Western Europe, Greece, and Turkey. They came in all sizes, shapes, and yields: nuclear warheads, bombs, land mines, depth charges, artillery shells, even small nuclear projectiles that could be fired from a recoilless rifle. The weapons were technically in the custody of U.S. officers, ready to be handed over for use in wartime by nato personnel. But custody of the weapons was not the same as control of them. A delegation of U.S. senators visiting Europe in 1960 was shocked to find hydrogen bombs loaded onto German planes that were on alert and crewed by German pilots; thermonuclear warheads atop missiles manned by Italian crews; nuclear weapons guarded and transported by \u201cnon-Americans with non-American vehicles.\u201d The theft or use of these weapons by nato allies became a grave concern. \u201cThe prime loyalty of the guards, of course, is to their own nation, and not to the U.S.,\u201d the Senate delegation warned in a classified report.\nTwo years later, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara worried that Turkish officers might try to fire some of nato\u2019s nuclear missiles at the Soviet Union without permission\u2014and ordered American custodians to sabotage the missiles, somehow, if anyone tried to launch them. Coded switches were subsequently placed inside nato\u2019s hydrogen bombs. These switches, known as Permissive Action Links (pals), were designed to hinder unauthorized use of the weapons; the bombs wouldn\u2019t detonate if the operator didn\u2019t enter the right code. But pals could be circumvented by someone with the proper technical skills. When two nato allies, Greece and Turkey, were on the cusp of war in 1974, the United States secretly removed all of nato\u2019s nuclear weapons from Greece and cut the arming wires of every nuclear weapon stored in Turkey, rendering them inoperable.\nThanks largely to stockpile reductions during the Administrations of President George H. W. Bush and President George W. Bush, the United States now has about a hundred and eighty nuclear weapons deployed with nato, all of them B-61 bombs. In addition to Incirlik, the weapons are stored at bases in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Italy. Today, the symbolism of these bombs is far more important than their military utility; missiles carrying nuclear warheads reach targets much faster, more reliably, and with much greater accuracy. The advocates of retaining nuclear weapons in nato argue that the B-61 bombs demonstrate America\u2019s enduring commitment to the alliance, intimidate Russia, and discourage nato members from developing their own hydrogen bombs. Opponents of the weapons, like Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German foreign minister, consider them \u201cabsolutely senseless\u201d\u2014and an inviting target for terrorists.\nWith a few hours and the right tools and training, you could open one of nato\u2019s nuclear-weapons storage vaults, remove a weapon, and bypass the pal inside it. Within seconds, you could place an explosive device on top of a storage vault, destroy the weapon, and release a lethal radioactive cloud. nato\u2019s hydrogen bombs are still guarded by the troops of their host countries. In 2010, peace activists climbed over a fence at the Kleine Brogel Airbase, in Belgium, cut through a second fence, entered a hardened shelter containing nuclear-weapon vaults, placed anti-nuclear stickers on the walls, wandered the base for an hour, and posted a video of the intrusion on YouTube. The video showed that the Belgian soldier who finally confronted them was carrying an unloaded rifle.\nSecurity concerns at Incirlik Airbase recently prompted a major upgrade of the perimeter fence that surrounds its nuclear-weapons storage area. Incirlik is about seventy miles from the Syrian border, and since last October American aircraft and drones based there have been attacking isis forces. Its proximity to rebel-controlled areas in Syria and the rash of terrorist acts in Turkey led the Pentagon, a few months ago, to issue an \u201cordered departure\u201d of all the family members of American troops at Incirlik. They were asked to leave immediately. About two thousand U.S. military personnel remain stationed there. Although Incirlik probably has more nuclear weapons than any other nato base, it does not have any American or Turkish aircraft equipped to deliver them. The bombs simply sit at the base, underground, waiting to be used or misused.\nEric Schlosser is the author of \u201cFast Food Nation\u201d and \u201cCommand and Control: Nuclear Weapons, the Damascus Accident, and the Illusion of Safety\nEtiketler: http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-h-bombs-in-turkey\nK\u00e2\u015fif Kozino\u011flu\u2019nun arkada\u015f\u0131 T\u00fcrkiye\u2019nin Orta Asya Beylerbeyi Ra\u015fit Dostum\u2019a suikast!\n\u00dcLKEM\u0130ZDE M\u0130LL\u0130 E\u011e\u0130T\u0130M S\u0130STEM\u0130NDE \u2018D\u00dcN DERS\u0130\u2019 OLMALI\nPYD TA\u015eNAKLA\u015eIRKEN\nNovruz under the Soviet Union By Aynur Qezenferqizi\nArmenia: Boosting Female Presence in Army\nAvrupa Erdo\u011fan\u2019\u0131n r\u00fcyas\u0131nda MHP\u2019lilerin partisini g\u00f6r\u00fcyor!\nKVANT \u015e\u00dcURU N\u018fZ\u018fR\u0130YY\u018fS\u0130, TRANSENDENTALLIQ, KVANT PS\u0130XOLOG\u0130YASININ QURANDA T\u018fSB\u0130T\u0130\nABD, Rusya, \u0130ran, T\u00fcrkiye hepsi i\u00e7eride",

        "raw_content": "Don't Lose $2,000 to Comcast Business\nThis is a post I don't even want to write. I like building things and writing about building things and I generally don't like bellowing to the Internet when something doesn't go quite as well as expected. But the more I've chatted with people about my experience with Comcast Business, the more I realized that it's probably worth writing a bit just to let others know what to expect. So consider this a cautionary tale that gives you some idea of what to look for if you have to deal with Comcast Business.\nTo give you the brief backstory, I became a Comcast Business customer in May of last year. I had been happily using Comcast consumer internet for a while but there were a couple of things that convinced me that it was time to make the move to business class. The first was the fact that I work remotely and my Internet service is extremely important to me. It is also the way that I communicate with the rest of my team, which often happens over video conference. There were days when I would spend around six hours connected via video conference to our Brooklyn office. The other thing that convinced me was the fact that Comcast had recently introduced data caps in the Atlanta area limiting customers to just 300G of transfer per month. Despite how I or anyone else feels about these caps, I knew they were put in place because of people like me who were using more bandwidth than others. However, it's also important to note that I never actually exceeded the 300G in a month. I only came close. I could have stayed on consumer Internet and, in hindsight, I really should have stayed on consumer Internet as it would have saved me a lot of grief and an awful lot of money.\nTip #1: Beware, There is a Contract\nWhen I first contacted Comcast Business about getting a business account, I was put in touch with a salesman (Eric) over email who explained the options to me. The price of the plan is based on speed and whether you are also interested in receiving business phone service. Eric sent me the following graphic and indicated that I just need to select which package best suited me.\nYou will notice that the two columns are not labeled. This is how Eric sent them to me and I later found out that the left column is Internet only, the right column also includes phone service. Let me point out a couple of things about this graphic. First, it is copied directly from Comcast Business Plan & Pricing Page. More important is the fact that these prices are predicated on a minimum 2 year contract. That fact is not included anywhere in that graphic and that's usually a thing you don't just exclude from your advertising. I have no idea if it is a thing that can be legally exclude from advertising, but just be aware that the minimum contract term is 24 months. I mention this specifically because this is the first place they nailed me. Eric offered to send me an \u201corder\u201d to schedule the install. What I did not realize until later is Eric sent me a 36 Month contract. Shady on their part, but I really should have scrutinized the document he sent me to sign because it definitely says \u201c36 months.\u201d So first important tip, make sure you get the minimum of 24 months if you have to deal with these guys.\nTip #2: You pay even if they don't give you service\nThis was the big one for me. So I'm on the hook for a 36 month contract. This is fine by me. Like I said, I work remotely and my Internet service is really important to me. If they continue to give me good service, I'm fine with continuing to pay them. But in October I moved out of Atlanta. In fact, I moved out of Georgia and hopped two states over to North Carolina. During the move, I called Comcast Business to have my service moved. This was when things got interesting. The customer service representative informed me that the area I had moved into was \u201cCharter territory\u201d and that they were unable to move my service. I told her I was kind of bummed because the service had been great in Atlanta. I asked her what I needed to do and her response left me stunned. She explained that even though they were no longer able to uphold their part of the contract, I would still needed to pay them. The best they could offer me was an early termination fee which was right around $2,000! She must have gotten really annoyed with me. I continued to ask the same question in slightly different terms:\n\u201c$2,000, for you not to give me service!?\u201d\n\u201cSo you cannot uphold you part of the contract, and you want me to pay $2,000!?\u201d\nThe answer, as you might expect, is \"Yes\". The customer representative claimed that relocation to an unserviced area is explicitly spelled out in the terms of service. It's not. I can't blame her, though, I would have said anything to get off the phone with me.\nSo I'm out $2,000, you should beware\nSo Comcast Business got me. They are $2,000 richer and I'm frustrated and unhappy. I can take the blame on being fooled by the salesman shenanigans but I had no way of knowing that Comcast would force me to pay even if they failed to deliver what they offered. Like I said, I work remotely so I cannot simply go without Internet. I had to setup service through Charter even while I continue to pay Comcast. Many others out there will be forced to move to Comcast Business. They're a virtual monopoly so I cannot realistically advise that you avoid them at all costs. They will continue to use data caps to force those of us who use more bandwidth to move to business accounts. If you get forced, I have two bits of advice for you.\nMake sure you sign the minimum 24 month contract.\nTry to find someone willing to take over your contract should you find yourself needing to move to a non-serviceable area. The customer representative did suggest that they are transferable. I have no idea if this is true. But most of all, keep in mind that you may be paying out your contract even in situations where Comcast is not giving you service.\nFor the moment, I continue to pay Comcast monthly for service they will not give me. I am trying to decide the right approach to take. Should I just pay the $2,000 and be done with this nightmare? Or should I find someone who could use good Internet, give them the $2,000 and let someone benefit from my troubles and money? I don't know. But if you have to do business with them, do be very careful.",

        "raw_content": "Download Symptoms Chart\nThe vast majority of back problems improve on their own or with nonsurgical treatment. There are a few warning signs, however, that may indicate serious spinal problems. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.\nLoss of contro l of the bowel or bladder and retention of urine may indicate damage to the spine's cauda equina nerves. The cauda equina is a bundle of nerves in the low back where the spinal cord ends. Damage to these nerves can be permanent if not treated immediately (within a day or so). See a spine specialist, or go to an emergency room if necessary.\nWeakness or numbness in a leg or arm, especially if it is severe\u2014and it is getting worse\u2014also points to nerve damage. This includes \"foot drop,\" a condition where the muscles of the leg and foot are too weak to raise the foot up as the individual attempts to walk. Again, nerve damage associated with these symptoms can be permanent if not treated immediately. This problem should be seen within 24 hours by a spine specialist.\nNumbness, pain or tingling that radiates into the arm or leg is also a source for concern and should be seen within a few days by a spine specialist.\nHigh fever accompanied by back pain may indicate a possible infection of the spine and should be treated within 24 hours.\nRules of Thumb on Symptoms\nHere's an encouraging back fact: 80 percent of the time, back and neck pain is simply a result of strain or soft tissue injury. In many of these simple cases of back or neck strain, your condition will improve with specialized exercises, rest, and anti-inflammatory medicine. Other times, you may need to see a doctor, perhaps even as soon as possible. Briefly, here are some rules of thumb to keep in mind about your back or neck problems:\nTrauma - If you fall down, are in a car accident, or do anything abrupt that may have fractured your back, go to a spine specialty clinic within 24 hours.\nRadicular pain - Anytime you have back or neck pain that radiates down into your leg or arm, you probably need to be evaluated by a spine specialist within two to three days, especially if it is getting worse.\nPersistent pain - If pain limited to the low back or neck area does not begin to subside after three days with anti-inflammatories and rest, then you probably need to be evaluated by a spine specialist. For example, if you first noticed back or neck pain on Monday, and it's now Thursday, and it's not getting better, it's time to see a spine specialist to find out what is causing your problem.\nAnytime you experience loss of control of your bowel or bladder, that is an EMERGENCY signal that you need to see a spine specialist THE SAME DAY. If you wait too long, you could suffer permanent paralysis of the nerves that control these functions.\nFoot drop - If you notice that your toe is dragging as you walk, this is a DANGER SIGNAL for serious neurological problems. Again, if you delay, you could experience permanent damage. This problem should be seen within 24 hours by a spine specialist.\nWeakness, numbness or pain that extends below a knee or elbow is a serious symptom. Go to a spine center within two days.",

        "raw_content": "How Did Nephi Use the Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven?\n\u201cDeath by Hunger\u201d by Vasyl Krychevsky\n\"Let there be a famine in the land, to stir them up in remembrance of the Lord their God, and perhaps they will repent and turn unto thee.\"\nIn Helaman 10, Nephi received great power from the Lord, when He told him, \u201cwhatsoever ye shall seal on earth shall be sealed in heaven\u201d (Helaman 10:7). It is not clear, at first, how Nephi used this power. However, a careful look at the chapter shows one way in which he may have used this gift.\nIn his encounter with the Divine, the Lord told Nephi he would be able to \u201csmite the earth with famine,\u201d (Helaman 10:6) and then, in the very next verse, gave him the power to \u201cseal\u201d and \u201cloose\u201d \u201con earth\u201d and \u201cin heaven\u201d (v. 7). Because \u201cseal\u201d and \u201cloose\u201d can also mean \u201cclose\u201d and \u201copen,\u201d it is possible that Nephi assumed that his power to cause famine, when necessary, was related to this ability to \u201cclose\u201d things up \u201cin heaven.\u201d1 Nephi may have realized that he was literally able to close the heavens themselves to keep it from raining.2\nNephi would not be the first prophet to use the priesthood to cause drought. The first recorded words from Elijah in the Old Testament are his testament to the wicked king Ahab, that \u201cthere shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word\u201d (1 Kings 17:1). Elijah, just like Nephi, used the priesthood to \u201cseal\u201d the heavens to keep it from raining. Thus, it is likely that Nephi received power to \u201cseal\u201d in Helaman 10, and then used it to \u201cseal\u201d the heavens in Helaman 11.\nThis idea becomes more likely when one looks carefully at chapter 11. In Helaman 11:2\u20134 Nephi asked the Lord to stop a terrible war by replacing this war with a famine. It is clear that this famine was caused by drought, because when Nephi asked the Lord to stop the famine, he specifically asked him to \u201csend forth rain\u201d (v. 13). This may indicate that Nephi had used his recently-acquired power to \u201cseal\u201d the heavens, just like Elijah.\nThis connection between Nephi and Elijah sealing the heavens is strengthened by the many allusions to the Elijah story in the story of Nephi son of Helaman.3\nElijah and the Sealing Power\nNephi and the Sealing Power\nElijah causes a famine by \u201csealing\u201d the heavens. Nephi causes a famine by \u201csealing\u201d the heavens.\nElijah experiences a fire and an earthquake in connection with hearing a soft voice from God (1 Kings 19).4 Nephi experiences a fire and an earthquake in connection with hearing a soft voice from God (Helaman 5:23, 30\u201331).\nElijah warns that the unrepentant will be eaten by dogs (2 Kings 9:36). Nephi warns that the unrepentant will be eaten by dogs (Helaman 7:19).\nElijah has an experience in which he stands before the Lord (1 Kings 17:1; 18:15). Nephi has an experience in which he stands before the Lord (Helaman 10).5\nElijah says that \u201crain\u201d will cease \u201caccording to my words\u201d (1 Kings 17:1).6 Nephi says that \u201crain\u201d will cease \u201caccording to my words\u201d (Helaman 11:13).\nElijah is taken by the spirit from place to place (1 Kings 18:12; 2 Kings 2:16). Nephi is taken by the spirit from place to place (Helaman 10:16\u201317).\nElijah does not have a recorded death or burial (2 Kings 2:11).7 Nephi does not have a recorded death or burial (3 Nephi 1:3).\nThese connections demonstrate that both Elijah and Nephi used the power of the priesthood to seal the heavens. In addition to that, when read alongside the Elijah story, Helaman 11 becomes a powerful reminder of the reality of the priesthood. Modern readers may rarely think about the cosmic power of the priesthood, but priesthood power is still just as potent today as the incomprehensible power that Nephi and Elijah used to seal the heavens.\nPresident Henry B. Eyring stated that the keys of the priesthood \u201creside in the Church today and will continue to the end of time.\u201d These keys are \u201cthe same divine authorization given by the Lord to Peter, as He had promised: \u2018And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.\u2019\u201d8\nThrough the exercise of priesthood keys, sacred covenants can be solemnized, and those who remain true and faithful will be sealed up unto eternal life. As King Benjamin concluded his covenant speech,\n\u201cTherefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in good works, that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal you his, that you may be brought to heaven, that ye may have everlasting salvation and eternal life, through the wisdom, and power, and justice, and mercy of him who created all things, in heaven and in earth, who is God above all.\u201d (Mosiah 5:15, emphasis added).\nIt is sometimes easy for Latter-day Saints to become routine or complacent in their exercise of priesthood power. For some, the priesthood might have lost some of its wonder. However, the dramatic exercise of this power by Elijah and Nephi stands as a vivid reminder of the life-giving effects of the priesthood. Their ancient stories help readers appreciate the value and meaning of that holy power in modern times.\nHenry B. Eyring, \u201cFamilies under Covenant,\u201d Ensign, May 2012, 62, online at lds.org.\nH. Dean Garrett, \u201cThe Priesthood\u201d in The Book of Mormon and the Message of The Four Gospels, ed. Ray L. Huntington and Terry B. Ball (Provo, UT: Religious Studies Center, Brigham Young University, 2001), 33\u201344.\nBoyd K. Packer, The Holy Temple, (Salt Lake City, UT: Bookcraft, 1980), p. 83\u201385.\n1. When one compares Helaman 10:7 with Matthew 16:19 and Isaiah 22:22, it becomes clear that \u201csealing\u201d and \u201cloosing\u201d in this verse refer to opening and closing. For more connections to the gospels, see Thomas L. Brodie, The Crucial Bridge: The Elijah-Elisha Narrative as an Interpretive Synthesis of Genesis-Kings and a Literary Model for the Gospels (Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, 2000), 29\u201336.\n2. When one looks at Alma 18:30\u201332 and Genesis 1:1, for example, it becomes clear that in the Ancient Near East and the Book of Mormon, the heavens were viewed not only as the place where God dwells, but also the area above the earth: the sky. Thus, when Nephi is told he will be able to open and close things \u201cin heaven\u201d he may have taken this very literally to mean he could literally open and close the sky.\n3. This is made even more interesting by the fact that the Elijah story itself shares much in common with the Moses story. See Marvin A. Sweeney, I & II Kings: A Commentary (Louisville, KY: Westminster/John Knox, 2007), 223.\n4. This story in Kings is itself a variation on themes from Exodus. See Craig C. Broyles, \u201cTraditions, Intertextuality, and Canon,\u201d in Interpreting the Old Testament: A Guide for Exegesis, ed. Craig C. Broyles (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Publishing Group, 2001), 157\u201375.\n5. Nephi the son of Helaman appears to have been standing before the Lord when he received the sealing power in Helaman 10. See Book of Mormon Central, \u201cWhy is There Temple Imagery in Helaman 10? (Helaman 10:8)\u201d KnoWhy 181 (September 6, 2016). As the Nephite chief priest, Nephi likely also would have readily associated priesthood powers in the temple with the blessings of rain upon the land, averting famine, and withstanding enemies (1 Kings 8:33\u201340; Leviticus 26:4\u20137).\n6. In 1 Kings 17:1 Elijah literally said, \u201caccording to my word,\u201d but this could perhaps be better translated as \u201caccording to my words,\u201d as in the Book of Mormon. See George Wigram, ed., \u201cDbr,\u201d The Englishman\u2019s Hebrew Concordance of the old Testament: Coded with the Numbering System from Strong\u2019s Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Publishing Company, 1980).\n7. Elijah was taken up to heaven without tasting death, and Nephi simply disappeared out of the land, never to be heard from again.\n8. Henry B. Eyring, \u201cFamilies Under Covenant,\u201d Ensign, May 2012, 62, online at lds.org.",

        "raw_content": "February 27, 2013 \u2014 koolblue\nWe might blame the politicians for buckling under the might of Malik Riaz but the real power behind the man is the military brass. No question about that.\nHe learnt the ropes of the contracting trade early on when he worked as a clerk at Maintenance and Engineering Services (MES), a civilian branch of the Army that renovates and repairs houses. That\u2019s where he honed his skills in the art of \u2018wheeling-dealing.\u2019 In due time, he made enough money to become a contractor with the same MES, this time \u2018greasing\u2019 the palms of the junior officers that he had trained himself in all things shady. They grew in career as he grew in wealth or may be the other way around. His level of the interaction has sky-rocketed since then.\nThe former MES clerk now has among his employees many retired generals. We are told he enjoys it when some of them carry his bag shamelessly. During the initial days of the infamous Arsalan Iftikhar case, a photograph showed two retired generals escorting Malik Riaz while exiting the Supreme Court. One was the former mighty in-charge of military\u2019s political muscle, Major General (retd) Ehtesham Zameer, who ran the political section of the ISI during the Musharraf government. And with a ruthless abandon I must say. The other was the top man of military\u2019s public relations, Major General (Retd) Shaukat Sultan. Perhaps their job description remains the same but this time for a different boss and a really different salary package. No wonder, Malik brags so often that his files never stop.\nThat one picture captures the state of affairs in the Army, which continues to lose respect because of its partnership with one man.\nThe former MES clerk seems an uncrowned Field Marshal in terms of the power that he enjoys in all things related to the Brass.\nOne two-star general, while he was Director General of Welfare and Rehabilitation (under which comes DHA Islamabad), constructed a palatial house on a hilltop for himself not in the DHA but in Bahria Town next door. The house is so grand that people come to see it as a tourist attraction. This is not to cast any aspersions but it was under his tenure that the DHA and Bahria got into the most controversial joint ventures. No proof but in such positions people are expected to exercise some discretion.\nMalik was smart enough to realize in the 1990s, when the khakis engineered the fall of a government every two years, that the real power, among the three most powerful proverbial As in Pakistan, lies with the Army. He knew that having the uniforms on your back is the safest bet in town.\nTurns out, that\u2019s exactly what Malik did. He sold the land to the DHA after grabbing it forcefully and illegally from not so powerful and influential individuals or housing society owners. Once under the control of the military, he knew there was no way it could come back to bite him. After all who would take the military to court even if DHA Islamabad, or some parts of it, are built on Qabza land.\nThe case of 2880 kanals owned by Revenue Employees Cooperative Housing Society (RECHS) should explain. The society land was proposed to be converted to Phase-9 of Bahria Town, and members of the RECHS would have been accommodated accordingly. But once the merger was complete, thanks to Pervaiz Elahi, Malik Riaz sold it to the DHA.\nIt has taken years of litigation and effort by the victims to pressurize Bahria Town to compensate through the courts. Many remain without compensation even after nine years.\nMalik Riaz knew he had to keep generals in his pocket, along with the politicians and other civilians. That\u2019s why most of the generals count on his vast empire for future employment post-retirement.\nInterestingly, one of the recently retired general \u2013 of the NLC scam fame \u2013 was the Garrison Commander in Lahore when Malik built The Mall of Lahore, a high rise, posh luxury apartment building smack in the center of Cantonment and right opposite the otherwise red-zoned Corps Commander\u2019s House. To this day, people are amazed that how this construction was allowed at such a sensitive sight. He developed a friendship with the two-star general way back then and as it turns out (some say may be it was orchestrated) that the same gentleman was promoted and posted as the QMG in Rawalpindi who heads all of the army\u2019s housing and land related projects.\nHe is definitely an expert in knowing which hands to grease. Stories of many generals literally eating from Malik\u2019s hands abound and they are not confined to Army messes. Also affected are lots mid-ranking officers, retired soldiers and, painful for the rank and file, the families of the martyred.\nIt\u2019s a Rs 62 billion scam. The story goes that the DHA Valley scheme was announced with lots of fanfare. People bought free forms in black because of the hype. The scheme offered plots measuring 150 and 240 square yards to retired officers, JCOs and the families of martyred soldiers.\nBut the issue is that \u2018the land ain\u2019t there.\u2019 The acquisition of around 80,000 kanal required for DHA Valley is far from completion. Those who got cheated include 110,000 civilians, 41,000 serving and retired military officers, jawans and the families of martyrs. I have seen people crying for the loss of their life-long savings. Enters Malik Riaz, the realtor tycoon was contracted to develop the scheme. You may not believe this but the Don was paid Rs 62 billion in advance. The DHA Valley is yet to acquire land but the money for its development was paid against all legal advice. Isn\u2019t it mind-boggling?\nThose who lost the money are found appealing to the Chief of Army Staff through press releases in newspaper offices. The COAS seems as helpless as anybody else before this former MES clerk. You have to give credit to the man.\nMalik Riaz may just be a new phenomenon in Pakistan. No private individual may ever have exercised as much leverage over the state as he does. Is it because the state institutions have become so weak that they can be manipulated easily or is he a very smart man. Either way, this Realtor-in-Chief has got his tentacles all over.\nHe has control right from the office of the President down to the SHO at Islamabad\u2019s Kohsar Police Station. He can influence khakis from the level of Generals to an MES clerk, the lucrative post from where he took his start to stardom. The media is under control as Bahria Town is one of the biggest advertisement-throwers. Most owners take favours worth their value, while the journalists, particularly a whole generation of easily purchasable new TV anchors are sometimes available even for crumbs. This makes a perfect setting for the reincarnation of Mario Puzo\u2019s Godfather, Malik Riaz, to take the lead role.\nThe hapless people who get robbed of their land in hundreds of cases have no place to go. The only forum available to them, the Supreme Court of Pakistan, has now been cowed down, thanks to the shenanigans of Arsalan Chaudhary. One must give credit that Malik had the chutzpah to attack the superior courts and then get away with it. Now, he sees no obstructions in converting huge swathes of cheap land, mostly acquired through dubious means, into golden retreats, safari villas and golf clubs. His posh houses are valued at as high as Rs 220 million. Of course, he spares lots of patches for the lower and middle classes to keep up the \u2018Sultana Daku\u2019 image that he loves so much. But this largely benefits a small elite club that will continue to grow richer and richer. On his back are the chosen members of that exclusive Club \u2013 the most prominent being the President of the Islamic republic.\nIt\u2019s common knowledge that Malik Riaz is the most important person at the Presidency. The President used his constitutional power to pardon Malik Riaz\u2019s personal guard. The guard was sentenced to life imprisonment after he confessed about killing a person in a shoot-out in an Islamabad market. Who cares that the Presidential discretion is supposed to be used in very special circumstances. This encourages Malik Riaz to brag that he could walk into the President\u2019s bedroom any time. Such bravado keeps the subordinates in line. In most cases he does not need to bother the President. The ministers or anyone who matters \u2014everybody knows how important he is for the President. President Zardari\u2019s sister, Faryal Talpur or somebody from his family is seen photographed at almost every important function organized by Malik Riaz.\nBureaucrats remain as obliging as Alladin\u2019s Genie, especially if they want to live a \u2018respectable\u2019 life in the Capital. But he is more interested in postings and officials that handle things related to real estate \u2014actually land-grabbing. Revenue and Administration officials are crucial but the most important is police. It is widely known in Islamabad that nobody gets posted on crucial positions without Malik\u2019s approval.\nHundreds of people have recorded statements before various courts complaining about the police torturing and harassing them \u201cat the behest of Malik Riaz.\u201d In a prominent case, two citizens, Raja Qayyum and Habibullah, complained before the Supreme Court that they were beaten and tortured by SHO Idrees Rathore and DSP Malik Mumtaz on the orders of Malik Riaz. They were allegedly kept locked-up for three months, forcing them to sell their properties to Bahria Town.\nSihala and Bhara Kahu is a Malik terrain and, says a published report, no police officer could be posted there without the approval of Malik Riaz. The report quotes an incident where a Sihala SHO, Haq Nawaz got changed just because he did not give \u201cdue protocol\u201d to a person sent by Malik Riaz.\nIslamabad\u2019s top cop is known to be a henchman of Malik Riaz. Rumour has it that he was instrumental in getting Malik\u2019s son escape to Dubai when the courts ordered his arrest on the charges of murder. He risked Cntempt of Court many times by dilly-dallying on Malik\u2019s arrest in land-grabbing cases. He twisted facts to evade the registration of FIR against Malik recently.\nMalik controls Islamabad\u2019s Police that recently risked fighting a war with their uniformed colleagues when a Rawalpindi court ordered Malik\u2019s arrest. The property Tsar travelled with fleets of Islamabad\u2019s heavily armed police commandoes with orders to shoot Rawalpindi police if they tried to arrest Malik. The police forces of the twin cities, playing a cat-and-mouse game, came close to mutual bloodshed many times because of him. At one stage, Malik had the muscle to have Rangers posted at his house. So who runs this country, one may ask.\nIn his business, Malik needs official patronage. He was even more boundless during Musharraf\u2019s time. The Chaudharies in Punjab loved to oblige and top civilian lackey, Tariq Aziz and his khaki counterpart, Lt. General (Retd) Hamid Javed delivered the rest of the country\u2014 of course on the basis of mutual reciprocity. The beauty of his model is that he gets all favours without spending much. In most cases he obliges them in kind by giving them plots that, interestingly, he acquires with their help. Smart, isn\u2019t it?\nThe PML-N was opposed to Malik initially but then Shahbaz Sharif got his help in Ashiana Scheme. The extent of Malik\u2019s affection for Shahbaz Sharif\u2019s son, Salman got disclosed in an off-camera shoot that somehow got leaked. Remember the \u2018scrooing\u2019 episode.\nMalik Riaz is a fictional character. In real life the closest example one can think of is former Italian President Silvio Berlusconi. He bought media through his business empire and then used it for his political and business ends. Malik commands as much political control without coming into power directly. So far, that is. But we hear that he has invested huge investments on dozens of potential candidates. And this may be the reason for his recent friction with the Sharif Brother, besides the 25 acre villa that he allegedly built for the Man on the Hill. Who knows he might just take over this country at some stage. Who would not want that with half of the Parliament in his pocket? Imagine Malik Riaz as the PM.\nPart II \u2013 Will the real Malik Riaz please stand up?\nMalik Riaz of Bahria Town may be the best prism through which one can understand today\u2019s Pakistan. He personifies the potential that this \u2018land of opportunities\u2019 offers, provided you know how to go about it. Palm-greasing, he says, is an essential skill here and that he knows how to attach \u2018wheels\u2019 to his work files \u2014 a metaphor used for bribery. \u201cBelieve me, nothing moves in this country without wheels and my files, I tell you, never stop,\u201d he said boldly in a TV interview, an impish smile on his face. That tells something about the man and the country where he, like it or not, happens to be the most powerful person.\nHis is a rags-to-riches story that should beat the Carnegies and Rockefellers hands down. The \u2018robber barons,\u2019 as the American Moguls were labeled a century ago, got their share of flak. But the biggest realtor baron of this country remains unscathed because he has got the media literally in his pocket.\nNot much is known about one of the richest man in Pakistan except for the bits that he has told about himself. Even Wikipedia says that the details are sketchy on how a small-time labourer climbed up the ladder to become the 10th richest man of Pakistan with assets worth $800 million. He may actually be worth much more if we take into account his \u2018file-wheeling\u2019 skills.\nThe information about him trickles down through carefully selected journalists who throw out carefully orchestrated images of his personality. A self-made man, he passed his secondary school exam by marginal numbers. Equally marginal were his skills as he could not even drive a car. He started off from petty chores, the first being a house whitewash. We are told that he walked for 10 kilometers just to save Rs 50. He had to sell household items, tears in his eyes, to get his daughter medical treatment.\nHe is as somebody living next door with whom ordinary people could identify; somebody they could trust with their savings. He almost comes across as Amitabh Bachan, as in Bollywood movie Tirshol, though of course minus the superstar\u2019s beauty, particularly his hair. Suddenly, the hero morphs into a dazzling rich person that the lay people aspire to be. A halo of glitz and glamour circles around his head. Malik Riaz travels in his private jet, lives in seven-star mansions, parks a Bentley in his porch and drives with a fleet of SUVs with a battalion of armed private commandoes that should match the prime minister\u2019s protocol.\nMalik Riaz is undoubtedly the most powerful person in Pakistan. He rubs shoulders with the high and mighty that seem to be at his beck and call. He calls former prime minister Yousaf Raza Gillani\u2019s son, MNA Abdul Qadir Gilani, as Bunny, Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif\u2019s son, Salman, who takes care of the family business, as Sill. I suspect, in the same pattern, he calls President Asif Zardari and Benazir Bhutto\u2019s son, Bilawal, as Billu. His favourite pass time, we are told, is to order senior functionaries on transfer and postings using some real rough language. This happens on a speaker phone while the worthy guests get amused and awed by his audacity. The treatment was recently meted out to another Malik with an \u2018R\u2019 who, outraged at one stage, suspended the officers who had gone to Riaz for a prized posting. The matter got resolved by the Man on the Hill later.\nOn a typical day, he starts his day with a working breakfast with rich Arab Sheikhs; lunch at the Presidency \u2014 with aalu shora he says; evening tea with the Punjab Chief Minister; dinner with top generals and late coffee with the biggest industrialists of this country. But he does not sleep before giving \u2018tweets\u2019 to his favourite journalists on how and what to say in the media. If he does not run Pakistan, who does?\nMalik remains the biggest paradox. He has got more faces than that Hindu mythological figure from Lanka. Is he the saviour who gives jobs to 20,000 people who in turn cater to a work force of 17000 ancillary industries? Bahria Town brochure boasts that 100,000 households are dependent on them. He goes on to claim, almost in the same hyperbole that he used in the $ 45 billion fiasco, that Bahria Town workers might stretch from Lahore to Rawalpindi if they are lined up with their arms stretched wide open.\nBut the questions remain: Is he the great visionary who changed the housing concept in Pakistan, providing the middle and lower classes high quality residential facilities at a much lower cost?\nIs he the messiah who is seen feeding hundreds of people, helping the sick, needy and the handicapped? Bahria Town sponsors many schools, hospitals and charity organizations.\nIs he the trouble shooter who somehow emerges as a referee in every political wrestling match. He played a role in Musharraf\u2019s deal with Benazir Bhutto. He was again involved in the Bhurban meeting that led to an agreement between Zardari and Nawaz Sharif. He was instrumental in arranging a patch-up between Asif Zardari and the Chaudharies of Gujrat. Only recently, he popped up out of nowhere to play a role in Tahirul Qadri\u2019s long march.\nIs he the hero of the poor who, as Amitabh Bachan, made it big in the cruel world of the rich. He likes to compare himself with \u2018Sultana Daku,\u2019 a local version of Robinhood who looted the rich to distribute among the poor. There are more shades of his personality in real life than the roles that Amitabh may have played in films.\nFor many, he is worse than Prem Chopra. All that glitz about good work is just a smoke screen that he maintains to hide a sinister villain that comes across in dozens of cases that he attends in various courts and police stations all over the country. The crimes that he is accused of include murder, kidnapping, forgery, fraud, extortion and many other evil things that all Bollywood villains put-together could not have done. These cases run into hundreds, mostly involving land-grabbing where his goons forcibly took away land from poor people to sell houses, some of which cost as high as Rs 220 million\u2014the Sultana Daku in reverse here. Just to explain the extent of accusations against him, he has still got at least three dozen cases before the Supreme Court, despite the disposal of double the number of cases. In one day last year, the Supreme Court issued 44 orders against Bahria Town in various cases.\nSo how do we judge him. Will the real Malik Riaz please stand up? It is all the more important to understand him as he enjoys the power in this country as nobody else. Whatever the case, he is surely a movie character who got stuck with ordinary mortals.\nPart I \u2013 $45bn fiasco exposes Malik Riaz\nThe biggest-ever media con\nIs this funny, sad or simply stupid. The clarification by Abu Dhabi Group about their alleged $45 billion investment in Pakistan may have exposed lots of things \u2014 and lots of people. One Malik Riaz of Bahria Town for sure.\nHe virtually conned the Abu Dhabi Group, Pakistani media and the public. We already knew about his hold on the Pakistani media. And it is not just about that one incident where he was caught red-handed with two TV anchors engineering news. The Bahria advertisements worth billions of rupees have simply blinded media owners who ensure that nothing is published against Bahria Town. News against Malik Riaz comes out only when he is summoned in the courts for the cases of murder, fraud, forgery, assassination attempts, blackmailing, to name some of the \u2018virtues\u2019 that he is regularly accused of.\nBut a more classic example of Pakistani media\u2019s incompetence-actually capitulation-could not be given. Here is why.\nThe announcement of a whopping $45 billion investment in Pakistan was a dream-come-true story. This too at a time when nobody wants to invest a penny in Pakistan, and half of my foreign friends want to send their mothers-in-law for \u2018sight-seeing\u2019 in FATA.\nIt was simply mind-blowing. The UAE sacrificed its pride for having the world\u2019s tallest building, Burj Khalifa. And because Malik charmed them so well, they let Karachi have the honour. Apart from building the world\u2019s tallest building in Karachi, the other attractions included a financial hub, sports city, international city, media city, educational and medical City, miniatures of the world\u2019s seven wonders. It was amply flashed that \u201cthese projects would employ more than 2.5 million people and boost more than 55 industries like cement, bricks, iron, steel and glass.\u201d\nMalik Riaz came across as the Messiah who had bailed out Pakistan from its financial mess. Abu Dhabi Group Chairman Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak al Nahyan was quoted as describing Malik as a \u201cvisionary,\u201d adding that this guaranteed that \u201cwe will Inshallah be welcoming first residents in next 3-4 years.\u201d As if he was not a ruler but a real estate agent.\nMedia outlets competed with each other in flashing the news amidst incessant advertisements from Bahria Town. Newspapers were also found outdoing each other. Most newspapers, English and vernacular, presented what was basically a press statement by Bahria Town as \u201cindependent news.\u201d Nobody checked whether the Abu Dhabi Group, the UAE government or even the international wire services issued any news about an investment that was worth, no less, than $ 45 billion. Not a single journalist bothered to even check if there was any news of this sort on any website of the UAE companies or whether Sheikh Nahayan had actually said those words. The half-page advertisement on newspapers\u2019 front pages, showing Malik shaking hands with the Sheikh seem to have blinded everything. Or perhaps they were told not to test their editorial discretion.\nThe so-called most credible English newspaper went a step ahead by giving a joint dateline of Karachi and Islamabad instead of Dubai. It added colour to the story by quoting a Karachi magnate, of course on the condition of anonymity, that the construction site would be \u201cKutta Island,\u201d which is 3 to 4-km off the coast of Karachi. It went a step further than what Malik Riaz had claimed, informing readers that \u201cthe Abu Dhabi Group-Malik Riaz would, apart from the above mentioned projects, also launch into building of 125,000 houses on the island.\u201d (sic)\nThe reporters also made sure to confirm it from the source of the press release, Malik\u2019s son Ali Riaz, instead of checking from the Abu Dhabi Group or even their local counterparts here in Warid, Wateen or Bank Alfalah.\nImagine an investment of $ 45 billion takes place in a place as Pakistan and the news is not on CNN, BBC, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times or even Reuters and AFP. Fellows \u2014 where was the common sense.\nLast time, the UAE committed half the amount for construction on the same Kutta island (known as such because people dump stray dogs there) but the Monarch, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum himself arrived for such a big announcement. However, not a penny came as the UAE was eyeing for Gwadar Port as compensation.\nIt is actually funny how the media got duped. And that is exactly how they took it in Dubai. A friend who works for The Gulf News shared that journalists there could not believe it in their morning meeting. Everybody laughed as the entire Pakistani media was conned so easily. The Gulf News did not carry the story as there had been no announcement from anywhere. Internationalist journalists saw this \u201cstupid news\u201d on the web and just ignored it.\nMy Dubai friend, knowing Bahria\u2019s leverage on Pakistani media, could understand that the news got carried on the first day. \u201cBut how about the five days after that,\u201d he asked, confused. \u201cWhy nobody followed-up on the story that was supposed to be the biggest investment in the country\u2019s history.\u201d\nIt turns out that the Abu Dhabi Group and the UAE government was aghast at the development. But since they have lots of investment here they did not want to embarrass Pakistanis. A small news was leaked through Reuters wherein Sheikh Nahayan, while talking to a reporter in a Dubai exhibition, clarified that the investment might materialize in 15 years. He also dispelled the impression about building the tallest building in Karachi, saying that the business plans were \u201cat a very early stage.\u201d\nNo paper except The Spokesman carried the story. Sheikh Nahayan also explained that the MOU was signed in his capacity as the owner of his private company, Dhabi Contracting and not as the chairman of the conglomerate, Abu Dhabi Group. He could not have been more specific when he said that it would materialize in phases, adding, \u201cevery phase will be studied by itself\u2026 It depends on the situation when we decide to go ahead with the projects.\"\nThis was to clarify the wrong impression given here by Bahria Town that it was Abu Dhabi Group and not Dhabi Contracting that signed an MOU that only showed minor interest in business here. Still, nobody took the hint here as advertisements kept coming. Nobody questioned that how could a private company in Pakistan commit a $45 billion investment without the government being in the loop. Imagine the world\u2019s biggest building and residential quarters for millions being constructed without any representative from the provincial and federal governments. In Sheikh Nahayan\u2019s case, the assumption of the UAE government could be forgiven as he is a minister and Chairman of Abu Dhabi Group.\nA whole bandwagon of Urdu columnists and TV anchors was found eulogizing Malik Riaz as the savior of the country. After five days, it just became too much for the UAE rulers and they had to issue the clarification that everybody read in newspapers on Friday.\nObviously, the Dubai rulers knew they were duped into that photo-up and their reputation was being used for petty benefits. It is easy to understand the benefits. This kind of news changed the scenario for Malik Riaz. He was being hounded by the courts in numerous cases, some of them seriously heinous. He was in conflict with LDA over opening new housing schemes in Lahore without permission. He was also in conflict with the army for land dispute with DHA that affects thousands of former army officers and jawans. All of this may have shaken the public confidence in his housing projects. In monetary terms this could mean a loss of billions of rupees for him. Such news about building the tallest building in Karachi is worth a lot though. Even if it had not materialized, the impression of a partnership with the Dubai rulers would have rewarded him billions of rupees in terms of public confidence. Elementary, isn\u2019t it.\nBut the question remains: Was our media (of which I am a part by the way) stupid, incompetent or simply capitulated before the owners. A little bit of everything I think. I was dared by a colleague on twitter that we shall see some expose` when I get up on Saturday. I hope so but am not sure about it.\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific.

Ironically they are, but only after being cleansed and sanitised by being brought back through official legal avenues while a clueless State Bank looks on helplessly.\nAn investigation by The News revealed that a substantial portion of the foreign remittances of $23.8 billion, during the almost four-year rule of the PPP led govt, is actually a major source of re-routing of dirty money earned through corruption and tax evasion by the political mafia and its business associates. To cite one instance, while there have been no mentionable increases in salaries or the number of Pakistani ex-pats working in the UAE, there are instances where the remittances have surged three-fold from Abu Dhabi, a favourite fund parking choice of our dirty elite.\nThe foreign remittances stood at $6.4 billion in 2007-08 and went up to $7.6 billion in 2008-09. The remittances witnessed another jump and touched $8.6 in 2009-10 and surged to $11.2 billion in the last financial year ending on June 30, 2011. This rising trend continued in the first quarter (July-Sept) period of the current fiscal year as it stood at $3.297 billion during this period. The figures of the Bureau of Immigration showed that the number of employed workers in the Gulf region did not witness any unprecedented increase but the received remittances jumped up three times in the case of Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, the European Union and maintained the same level from the USA despite the fact that the developed economies such as the USA and EU were facing an acute financial and debt crisis.\nThe economists describe this funds-movement phenomenon as money laundering, pure and simple, and the easiest method of turning black illegal wealth into legal white money. No questions asked, no taxes paid. And the method is one of the cheapest money laundering tools as well. The entire exercise of taking dirty funds out illegally and bringing them back clean and legal costs a mere 2 percent of the cost of the entire value of the involved sums.\nAs put by one economic crime investigator, \u201cThis is what we call the Dutch disease that needs to be investigated because if it evaporated it could cause us to plunge into a default on our external account.\u201d This is not a baseless apprehension as proven in the wake of emerging realities. Workers\u2019 remittances showed a declining trend by a massive 32% to $890 million in September 2011 compared to $1,310 million in August 2011.\n\u201cOne should not see development on the remittances front for the first quarter as it is a worrisome indicator if closely reviewed by the economic managers. In terms of remittances, Pakistan can be compared with the Philippines as its growth is almost flat with authorities expecting a 4.5 percent jump keeping in view the economic outlook of major economies such as the USA, United Kingdom, European countries and the Gulf region. But there is a complete mismatch in the case of Pakistan as the country is witnessing a phenomenal increase by 25 percent without having any economic justifications,\u201d a top officer of the government\u2019s economic team told The News here on Saturday.\nFormer economic advisor to the government of Pakistan, Dr Ashfaque Hassan Khan who is currently serving as Dean NUST Business School (NBS) opined that there was a mysterious growth in remittances which was not consistent with the level of economic activities in countries from where the bulk of expatriate Pakistanis were sending their money. For example, he said, the US has been the single largest source of remittances and its economy is near to recession as millions of people have lost their jobs. He asked how Pakistanis are still maintaining the same level of remittances as had been the case during the good times in the USA.\nHe said that another major source of remittances was the European countries, which had been suffering a severe debt crisis for the last two years and economic growth there was almost flat. How one can justify that Pakistanis can afford to continue sending money despite experiencing a standstill economic growth in the EU countries, he asked.\nDr Ashfaque said that another major source is the Middle East and remittances from there witnessed a three-fold increase in recent years. Neither the wages nor the number of overseas employees increased in this period so there is no justification for the sudden jump, he said, arguing, \u201cWhat is happening on remittances is an unknown phenomenon,\u201d and lamented that so far no credible response had come from the SBP.\u2013\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific.

Being an Engineer, I have been trained to look at a problem and devise simple, cheap and practical solutions. It bothers me to no end that my country just seems to slide further and further down a slope from where there seems to be no recovery. I have been racking my brain to find a way out for my country for it present state of turmoil.\nI have looked at Pakistan and its multitude of problems and to my Engineer\u2019s mind the following seem to be worthy of attention. These are listed in order of importance.\n1 \u2013 Crippling Debt\n2 \u2013 Poor Economic performance (growth, low GDP etc)\n3 \u2013 Illiteracy\n4 \u2013 Erosion of moral values.\nI have not even bothered to list, power cuts, growing gap between the rich and poor, the very strange political setup or even the issue of personal safety, terrorism etc.\nAs I have said, I am a simple Engineer with a simple view of the world. I am of the beliefs that if 1-4 are addressed; all other ills of my country will automatically fall in place.\nCrippling Debt & Poor Economic Performance\nOver the years, Pakistan has mismanaged its economic affairs. Balance of payments is totally skewed. Govt. expenditures far outstrip income. Over the years the country has become dependent on handouts from the US called \u201caid packages\u201d etc. On top of the aid packages, Pakistan has taken loans from the World Bank and the IMF. As all of us know that once you owe money you are forced to dance to the tune of your creditors.\nWhat is absolutely necessary is for Pakistan to get back on track is to rid itself of debt.\nThe way I see it is that Pakistan has to develop the industrial base. Mind, that the selection of the type of industry has to be done carefully with an eye on export oriented strategy. This will lead to the following:\na \u2013 Create jobs\nb \u2013 Improve balance of payments by industrial output earning foreign exchange.\nOf course, you may say, \u201cIt is easier said than done\u201d. What needs to be done is to get 100% of the debt be paid off and we need to say to America, \u201cThank you for all you help but we don\u2019t need any help\u201d.\nMy proposal is rather simple.\nWe have very few allies left today. One of them is China. China and Pakistan have a very special relationship. Right from the start in 1947, China has stood by Pakistan. To be fair, Pakistan has been invaluable to China as well. A great deal of arms technology has reached China through Pakistan during the time when China was a closed country.\nChinese are a wise people not easily swayed by world events. They are not easily intimidated by the Americans. The Chinese are cautious people. Pakistan needs form a business alliance with China. Get China to pay off 100% of all monies owed to all the agencies to whom we owe money to in exchange for something China needs. Stop any and all money, technology, assistance, involvement (security related or other) from the USA. It is no secret that USA has not proved a friend of Pakistan and it has no sympathy for this country. The only country USA cares for is itself. We have been used and abused by America for its own gains. I do not blame the USA for this but it us and our short sightedness to blame! As the saying goes, \u201cIf you sleep with dogs you will get up with fleas\u201d. Today we are totally flea ridden!\nThe question one can ask is why would China want to pay off Pakistan\u2019s debt? We have nothing to offer them. Actually, I think there is something we can offer them. At the end of the day it is business. A business deal is where two parties can benefit from each other. We have already determined that Pakistan will benefit from China by it paying off Pakistan\u2019s loan; but what does Pakistan have to offer China?\nChina has a huge growing giant of an economy. It has a huge hunger to fuel this economy, it needs to grow. The problem is that being a wise nation, China does not want to open up all its provinces too quickly to this economic revolution. China is a communist nation and new to this economic revolution. Wisely, it is cautious not to expose the whole county to this revolution and limiting this phenomenon to a few cities/areas (Shanghai, Beijing to name a few). What Pakistan can offer is full and free access to its land and warm waters of the Arabian Sea by hosting the Chinese explosion.\nThe business proposition Pakistan needs to work with China is that in exchange for paying off its debt, China can build as many factories it wants and take all profits from such investments \u2013 no questions asked. Mind you, the deal should include turn over of ownership to Pakistan after 20 years. If you look at the proposition from China\u2019s point of view, in exchange for paying off Pakistan\u2019s debt it will gain free access to land upon which it will build industry whose output will enter the world from the ports of Pakistan. What China needs to work out is the payback period for the original debt plus the investment of the huge industrial base it will setup in Pakistan. Usually viable business venture have a payback of 3 \u2013 5 years. Having the ownership turn over of 20 years will give China ample time to turn a good profit.\nBy default, if China has to make money with its new industrial base, it will have to renovate the Pakistan\u2019s tattered infrastructure to support the huge growth that will come. The salary scales in Pakistan are still low enough for Chinese firms to turn an easy profit by remaining competitive on the international market.\nWhat Pakistan gains will be freedom form its debt and a creation of jobs at a level never imagined possible. There will inevitably be a sprouting of support industries around the main Chinese investment. Within a period of about 7 \u2013 10 years the economy of this nation can be turned around and can come close to having a growth figures enviable by others.\nIn the above model, the economy of the country will be divided into two parts. (A) The economy driven by Chinese investment. Where all profits from this investment will be bagged by China. No taxes will be levied on this output so as to allow China to produce with the lowest overheads. (B) The economy of Pakistan in almost its present form. Its present industrial units, agricultural base and so on. Pakistan will continue to earn income from the usual taxes and export as it does now. The difference being that it will no longer have to pay anything towards its debts. The additional deposable income now available will be spent on education, developing infrastructure (along with the Chinese) and security.\nChinese investment towards industry can be in the form if industrial estates that can be guarded as in Al-Jubail Industrial City with limited access and the requirement of an official ID cards for the workers to enter. Certainly we cannot ignore the terrorism factor that will play to destabilize the Chinese onslaught of investment.\nElectric power to support this level of investment will have to be via additional hydro electrical units or perhaps Nuclear Energy. There are vast reserves of coal that my also be used to generate energy. This will lead to environmental pollution, but, at this stage we cannot afford to be sensitive to such matters.\nNote: Present level of expenditure on the defense needs to continue unchanged. I believe that we need our Air Force, Navy and the Army to be the strongest it can be. It should be so strong that any nation, USA, India, Afghanistan or any other are forced to think 10 times before taking us on.\nWith a population of about 60% under the age of 15 years, Pakistan will have to think radically outside the box.\nEducation up to the tenth grade has to be made compulsory. Teacher\u2019s pay scales have to be revised to the point where teaching becomes a profession of choice attracting the finest minds.\nWe have enough Educational institution turning out Degree holders but the quality of curricula is very poor. We do not have any institutions that can lay claim to being the best, or second best or third best even the 50th best in the world. Our degrees are not recognized anywhere. Yes our professionals work all over the world but never as fresh graduates. What needs to be done is not to increase the number on Universities but to improve the quality of the output.\nNot every child needs to become an Engineer, Doctor, Lawyer etc. mainly because the Pakistani Economy can only support just so many Professionals. However what is missing are Polytechnic institution turning out a trained work force. Our work force learns on the job from the \u201custaad\u201d. This is not a desirable state of affairs. Polytechnic institutions will invaluable in turning out skilled work force that will be ready to take up jobs in the Chinese industrial base proposed above.\nSome of the funds now available to the Government as no more payments toward debt are necessary needs to be diverted to the Universities for the purpose of Research and Development.\nThere is another problem prevalent in the villages. This problem can be summed up as the resistance to the advent of education of the farmers by the feudal land lords. The fear being that if the common villager became educated then the power he has over them will erode in time. Thus it is often the case that teacher sent to a particular village is chased off and the government built school is used to house the cows of the feudal land lord. To address this situation, the school inspectors have to be empowered to stand up to the feudal lords with out any fear. They need to be accompanied by a group of armed police while doing village school inspections. Salaries of the School Inspectors need to be at a level that makes bribery pointless.\nAll village schools need to be to the matriculation level.\nOnce hope returns to the masses that education is the path to self betterment, the need for parents to enroll their children in Madrassas where some fool does systematic brain washing of young minds will eventually stop.\nAt the end of the day we all want peace, three decent square meals a day and hope for a bright future. A place where or kids will have a decent life. All of the above are deeply linked to the economic growth of a nation.\nThis is a tough one. We have reached a stage where the line between right and wrong no longer exists. Our moral fiber has been damaged beyond repair.\nIf I look back to my youth, it was my father who taught me to be honest no mater what. His vision of right and wrong was as sharp as a needle. He taught me never to loose sight of right and wrong even if it meant that by remaining truthful, I may suffer a loss. Never to lie, have the courage to say \u201cWhat you are doing is wrong\u201d.\nHow many fathers take the time and coach their sons on right and wrong. Judging from the rampant dishonesty and corruption in my country \u2013 not many.\nToday an honest Policeman, Customs officer etc (if you can find one) is immediately transferred because he refuses to play ball. Our moral fiber has degenerated to a point where an honest person is referred to as \u201cinnocent\u201d, \u201cbuffoon\u201d or simply unworldly wise. It has been decades since I have heard any one call himself \u201csufaid poosh\u201d. Instead of being proud of being \u201csufaid poosh\u201d, we are ashamed. In our society, the more crocked one is and the more money one amasses by illegal means is directly proportional to the respect he is given.\nIsn\u2019t that a shame?\nSo how to restore our nations moral fiber? That is indeed a tough one.\nIt is our religious leaders (imams) who are responsible for taking care of the nation\u2019s moral fiber. But our imams are ill equipped to carry out the sensitive task entrusted to them. Instead they have their own agendas of invoking young impressionable minds towards violence.\nAll imams must be certified to be able to hold that position. All imams must be graduates of an Islamic University and must have at least a BA degree in Islamic Studies with a minor in Education as a minimum qualification before he is able to hold a microphone in the Masjid. Additionally, they must be on the Ministry of Religious affairs payroll. The Friday \u201ckhutba\u201d must be an official document prepared by the Ministry of Religious affairs. All imams must stick to this document during the Friday sermon.\nIt is sad to say that despite the steps mentioned above there is little hope restore our moral fiber. Perhaps a more radical approach will be to start with the three year olds and build an entire new generation of morally true nation.\nAs I said this is a very difficult task to do with desirable outcome.\nIn Summery, it is not an easy task to turn around my country but until and unless a major, radical change from the root up is brought about there is very little hope. In fact chances are that if left to its own devices, this country will most certainly be carved up by USA. USA will engineer its breakup with the North seceding to Afghanistan and Punjab/Kashmir to India. Perhaps Baluchistan may become a new independent country and so may Sindh. It is hard to say what will become of Pakistan.\nNothing is impossible as long as there is a will to do so. One thing is for certain, we just cannot allow Pakistan\u2019s to remain in its present state.\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific.

Leave a Comment \u00bb\nRs 1,000,000,000,000 Black Hole.\nDr Farrukh Saleem\u2019s comments on the national budget:\nRs 1,000,000,000,000 is the difference between what the Government of Pakistan (GOP) earns and what it spends.\nGOP looses Rs 300 crore a day, every single day.\nRs 11 crore per hour or Rs 20 lakh per minute for every single minute of the entire year.\nGOP would have lost Rs 60 lakh by the time you will finish reading this brief commentary.\nGOP is now less of a government and more of a black hole. When nature creates a black hole, nothing can come out of it because its density and gravity increases to infinity while its size shrinks to zero.\nPakistan\u2019s one trillion rupee black hole created by the GOP has no chance of shrinking because it is just like cosmic drain which is going to suck jobs, dreams, aspirations and wishes of the Pakistani public.\nPresidency cannot survive without a Rs 3.5 crore injection a month, every month of the year.\nThe PM Secretariat cannot survive without devouring Rs 50 crore a year.\nThe Cabinet Secretariat with an army of ministers gobbles up Rs 100 crore a month.\nThen there are \u2018developmental funds\u2019 \u2013 nay political bribes \u2013 to be paid to all of our honourable legislatures.\nAt 100 senators, 342 MNAs and 728 MPAs that\u2019s a cool Rs 300 crore a month down the drain every month of the year. Imagine; lawmakers doing gutters.\nThen there are at least half a dozen black holes within the real black hole;\n- Pakistan International Airlines,\n- Pakistan Steel Mills,\n- Pakistan Electric Power Company,\n- Pakistan Railways,\n- Pakistan Agriculture Storage and Utility Stores Corporation.\nAmong them they loose at least Rs 250 billion a year or Rs 70 crore a day, every day of the year.\nThen there are others:\n- Tomato Paste Plant,\n- Roti Corporation of Pakistan,\n- Pakistan Stone Development Company,\n- Pakistan Hunting and Sporting Arms Development Company,\n- National Institute of Oceanography,\n- Pakistan Gems & Jewellery Development Company,\n- Technology Commercialisation Corporation of Pakistan,\n- National Industrial Parks Development & Management Company,\n- Technology Up-Gradation and Skill Development Company,\n- National Productivity Organisation,\n- Centre for Applied & Molecular Biology,\n- Council for Work and Housing Research,\n- National Institute of Electronics,\n- Pakistan Council for Science and Technology,\n- Pakistan Council of Research in Water Technology,\n- Pakistan Council of Scientific and Industrial Research,\n- Pakistan Standards and Quality Control Authority,\n- Central Inspectorate of Mines.\nWait there are more:\n- National Insurance Corporation,\n- Heavy Electrical Complex,\n- Machine Tool Factory,\n- Services International,\n- National Power Construction Company,\n- National Fertilizers Corporation,\n- State Engineering Corporation,\n- National Construction Limited,\n- Pakistan Steel Fabricating Company Limited,\n- Pakistan Mineral Development Corporation,\n- Ghee Corporation of Pakistan,\n- Republic Motors,\n- Pakistan National Shipping Corporation,\n- State Cement Corporation of Pakistan,\n- State Petroleum Refining & Petrochemicals Corporation,\n- Trading Corporation of Pakistan,\n- Cotton Export Corporation of Pakistan,\n- Rice Export Corporation of Pakistan,\n- Pakistan Industrial and Technical Training Centre and\n- Pakistan Engineering Company.\nFrom here onwards budget making is a piece of cake \u2013 add every \u2018Demand for Grant\u2019 from the president downwards, deduct the IMF-allowed budgetary deficit and surprise, surprise you have the final revenue figure.\nBy the end of the next fiscal year, the president, the prime minister and everyone below them would end up overshooting their allocations by 10 to 20 percent.\nSurprise! Surprise! By the end of the next fiscal year GOP will give mother nature another Rs 1,000,000,000,000 black hole.\nMy comments: Revenue generation in a big way is required to undo the above. This cannot be done without growth in Industry and agriculture. Industry needs input of mega quantities of power and agriculture needs input of mega quantities of water. To produce these mega quantities we need mega dams. The \u2018Sindh\u2019 and \u2018Punjab\u2019 Cards will never allow mega dams to be built. So we are back to square one, one step forward, two steps back.\nAll talk of stopping Drone attacks and blocking NATO routes is nonsense. US will come down on us like a ton of bricks. National sovereignty will not come without economic sovereignty.\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific. Tags: Dr. Farrukh Saleem, GOP, Government of Pakistan, Khurshid Anwer, MNAs, MPAs. Leave a Comment \u00bb\nThe day I met Abdul Sattar Edhi, a living saint\nApril 15, 2011 \u2014 koolblue\nSixty years ago, Abdul Sattar Edhi, 82, gave up everything to devote his life to helping Pakistan\u2019s poorest. Here, Peter Oborne hails a truly selfless spiritual sage\nAbdul Sattar Edhi, who has established homes across Pakistan for the mentally ill\nIn the course of my duties as a reporter, I have met presidents, prime ministers and reigning monarchs.\nUntil meeting the Pakistani social worker Abdul Sattar Edhi, I had never met a saint. Within a few moments of shaking hands, I knew I was in the presence of moral and spiritual greatness.\nMr Edhi\u2019s life story is awesome, as I learnt when I spent two weeks working at one of his ambulance centres in Karachi.\nThe 82-year-old lives in the austerity that has been his hallmark all his life. He wears blue overalls and sports a Jinnah cap, so named because it was the head gear of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan.\nNo Pakistani since Jinnah has commanded the same reverence, and our conversations were constantly interrupted as people came to pay their respects.\nMr Edhi told me that, 60 years ago, he stood on a street corner in Karachi and begged for money for an ambulance, raising enough to buy a battered old van. In it, he set out on countless life-saving missions.\nGradually, Mr Edhi set up centres all over Pakistan. He diversified into orphanages, homes for the mentally ill, drug rehabilitation centres and hostels for abandoned women. He fed the poor and buried the dead. His compassion was boundless.\nHe was born in 1928, when the British Empire was at its height, in Gujarat in what is now western India. But he and his family were forced to flee for their lives in 1947 when the division of India and creation of Pakistan inspired terrible communal tensions: millions were killed in mob violence and ethnic cleansing.\nThis was the moment Mr Edhi, finding himself penniless on the streets of Karachi, set out on his life\u2019s mission.\nJust 20 years old, he volunteered to join a charity run by the Memons, the Islamic religious community to which his family belonged.\nAt first, Mr Edhi welcomed his duties; then he was appalled to discover that the charity\u2019s compassion was confined to Memons.\nHe confronted his employers, telling them that \"humanitarian work loses its significance when you discriminate between the needy\".\nSo he set up a small medical centre of his own, sleeping on the cement bench outside his shop so that even those who came late at night could be served.\nBut he also had to face the enmity of the Memons, and became convinced they were capable of having him killed. For safety, and in search of knowledge, he set out on an overland journey to Europe, begging all the way.\nOne morning, he awoke on a bench at Rome railway station to discover his shoes had been stolen. He was not bothered, considering them inessential.\nNevertheless, the next day an elderly lady gave him a pair of gumboots, two sizes too large, and Mr Edhi wobbled about in them for the remainder of his journey.\nIn London, he was a great admirer of the British welfare state, though he presciently noted its potential to encourage a culture of dependency. He was offered a job but refused, telling his benefactor: \"I have to do something for the people in Pakistan.\"\nOn return from Europe, his destiny was set. There was no welfare state in Fifties Pakistan: he would fill the gap. This was a difficult period in his life. Shabby, bearded and with no obvious prospects, seven women in rapid succession turned down his offers of marriage. He resigned himself to chastity and threw all of his energy into work.\nHe would hurtle round the province of Sindh in his poor man\u2019s ambulance, collecting dead bodies, taking them to the police station, waiting for the death certificate and, if the bodies were not claimed, burying them himself.\nMr Edhi\u2019s autobiography, published in 1996, records that he recovered these stinking cadavers \"from rivers, from inside wells, from road sides, accident sites and hospitals\u2026 When families forsook them, and authorities threw them away, I picked them up\u2026 Then I bathed and cared for each and every victim of circumstance.\"\nThere is a photograph of Mr Edhi from this formative time. It could be the face of a young revolutionary or poet: dark beard, piercing, passionate eyes. And it is indeed the case that parts of his profound and moving autobiography carry the same weight and integrity as great poetry or even scripture.\nMr Edhi discovered that many Pakistani women were killing their babies at birth, often because they were born outside marriage.\nOne newborn child was stoned to death outside a mosque on the orders of religious leaders. A furious Mr Edhi responded: \"Who can declare an infant guilty when there is no concept of punishing the innocent?\"\nSo Mr Edhi placed a little cradle outside every Edhi centre, beneath a placard imploring: \"Do not commit another sin: leave your baby in our care.\" Mr Edhi has so far saved 35,000 babies and, in approximately half of these cases, found families to cherish them.\nOnce again, this practice brought him into conflict with religious leaders. They claimed that adopted children could not inherit their parents\u2019 wealth. Mr Edhi told them their objections contradicted the supreme idea of religion, declaring: \"Beware of those who attribute petty instructions to God.\"\nOver time, Mr Edhi came to exercise such a vast moral authority that Pakistan\u2019s corrupt politicians had to pay court. In 1982, General Zia announced the establishment of a shura (advisory council) to determine matters of state according to Islamic principles.\nMr Edhi was suspicious: \"I represented the millions of downtrodden, and was aware that my presence gave the required credibility to an illegal rule.\"\nTravelling to Rawalpindi to speak at the national assembly, he delivered a passionate denunciation of political corruption, telling an audience of MPs, including Zia himself: \"The people have been neglected long enough.\n\"One day they shall rise like mad men and pull down these walls that keep their future captive. Mark my words and heed them before you find yourselves the prey instead of the predator.\"\nMr Edhi did not distinguish between politicians and criminals, asking: \"Why should I condemn a declared dacoit [bandit] and not condemn the respectable villain who enjoys his spoils as if he achieved them by some noble means?\"\nThis impartiality had its advantages. It meant that a truce would be declared when Mr Edhi and his ambulance arrived at the scene of gun battles between police and gangsters.\n\"They would cease fire,\" notes Mr Edhi in his autobiography, \"until bodies were carried to the ambulance, the engine would start and shooting would resume.\"\nMr Edhi eventually found a wife, Bilquis, but his personal austerity was all but incompatible with married life. When the family went on Hajj, a vast overland journey in the ambulance, he forbade Bilquis to bring extra clothes, because he was determined to fill the vehicle with medical supplies.\nReaching Quetta in northern Baluchistan, with the temperature plunging, he relented enough to allow her to buy a Russian soldier\u2019s overcoat. Later on, when their children grew up, Mr Edhi would not find time to attend his daughter\u2019s marriage.\nBut Mr Edhi\u2019s epic achievement would not have been possible but for this inhuman single-mindedness. Today, the influence of the Edhi Foundation stretches far outside Pakistan and Mr Edhi has led relief missions across the Muslim world, providing aid at every international emergency from the Lebanon civil war in 1983 to the Bangladesh cyclone in 2007.\nThere are no horrors that Mr Edhi and his incredibly brave army of ambulance men have not witnessed, and the numerous lives they have saved.\nThe story of Mr Edhi coincides with the history of the Pakistan state. More than any other living figure, he articulates Jinnah\u2019s vision of a country which, while based on Islam, nevertheless offers a welcome for people of all faiths and sects. Indeed, the life of Mr Edhi provides a sad commentary on the betrayal of Jinnah\u2019s Pakistan by a self-interested political class.\nOne evening, as the sun set over Karachi, I asked Mr Edhi what future he foresaw. \"Unless things change,\" he said, \"I predict a revolution.\"\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific.

Outflow \u2013 43,000 cusecs\nTotal generation \u2013 10,487 MW. Hydropower share \u2013 3,194 MW\nThis will plunge heavily if the current state of water inflows persists in the days to come\nEnough water for the provinces only for another week or so.\nTotal storage is less than one MAF \u2026. (KBD \u2013 6.1 maf)\nTarbela dam level \u2013 1,388 feet \u2026. Dead level \u2013 1,378 feet\ni.e. 10 feet of water = 0.15 maf\nMangla dam = 0.6 maf. Others \u2013 0.5 maf\nNot received additional water from our major source, the Glaciers.\nRainfall took place only in upper areas like Islamabad,\nnot in the catchments areas of the rivers,\nor directly at the canal irrigation lands.\nIrsa might face an abnormal situation for a small while if the current water availability position continues to exist for more than 10 days.\nDespite all above, chairman Irsa has claimed there was no panic or a disturbing situation in the country as far as water is concerned !!!\nWater good for 10 days left at Tarbela\nDilshad Azeem\nISLAMABAD: The country\u2019s largest reservoir at Tarbela Dam has been left with just 10 days water to meet the current irrigation requirements and to maintain already dropped down hydropower generation, The News has learnt.\n\u201cAn abnormal drop in Indus River flows has been caused by slow meltdown of glaciers, the main source of water for Pakistan,\u201d says Indus River System Authority (Irsa) here on Monday.\nIn a compelling situation, Tarbela Dam\u2019s level is falling down with 12,000 cusecs daily as its outflow is being maintained at 43,000 cusecs against 29,700 cusecs per day inflow.\nOverall, out of 10,487MW of electricity generation on Monday, the hydropower share was 3,194MW including from Tarbela and Mangla dams besides barrages and small units.\n\u201cIt would plunge heavily if the current state of water inflows persists in the days to come,\u201d say Wapda officials. The Punjab Irrigation Department is being provided 70,000 and Sindh 45,000 cusecs daily as the situation is fast heading towards an alarming stage in next 7-10 days.\n\u201cWe have enough water to provide full indents to the provinces for another week or so amid abnormal water availability in Indus River,\u201d Irsa chairman Rao Irshad Ali Khan said, while confirming the current water picture.\nAs the country\u2019s total storage stands at less than one MAF, Tarbela has merely 10 feet or 0.15MAF of water available for discharge as its current level stands at 1,388 feet against 1,378 feet dead level. Merely 0.6MAF is in Mangla Dam and 0.5MAF at barrages and small reservoirs.\nIrsa chairman Rao Irshad said the additional water should have been available in Indus in current Kharif month. He disagreed that a dangerous situation was about to come, saying: \u201cOne cannot describe it an alarming situation as we would re-plan water releases after waiting at least for a week or 10 days\u201d.\nRao was hopeful that Mangla Dam had enough availability and is safe as far as available storage is concerned. \u201cWe, Irsa, is giving water to Sindh province in accordance with its indent with 45,000 cusecs at Chashma downstream discharge.\u201d\n\u201cThe Indus influx and inflows from Kabul River, contributing 21,000 cusecs, enable us to ensure the provision also to Punjab having demand of 70,000 cusecs. Punjab gets water from Mangla as well as from other sources.\u201d\n\u201cYes this is change of global weather and we have not received additional water from our major source, the Glacier, due to insufficient temperature,\u201d he said. Rao said the recent rains left pleasant weather in Islamabad on the one hand but adversely affected Indus flows. \u201cThe rainfall took place only in upper areas like Islamabad, not in the catchments areas of the rivers or directly at the canal fed irrigation lands.\u201d\n\u201cTarbela Dam often touches the dead level in early March, but our planning to counter any abnormal situation has enabled us to take and ensure the supplies as per provincial demands.\u201d\nRao admitted that Irsa might face an abnormal situation for a small while if the current water availability position continues to exist for more than 10 days. \u201cAnd definitely we would chalk out a fresh strategy in that case.\u201d\nThe Irsa chairman claimed that there was no panic or a disturbing situation in the country as far as water is concerned. \u201cThings will improve with availability of water in the system,\u201d he added.\nPosted in Socio-economic Pakistan Specific.

Tribology, the science and technology of friction, lubrication and wear, makes a vital contribution to many areas of industry and yet is often underrepresented in the education of scientists and engineers. This short course covered the fundamental aspects of this interdisciplinary subject, and will be taught by members of staff of the Departments of Engineering and Materials Science and Metallurgy, as well as invited external speakers. The course was designed to provide an insight into the following areas: l l l l l\nSurface examination and topography Fundamentals of contact mechanics Fluid film lubrication Friction and its control Wear and its reduction\nThermoplastics Welding Technology: materials and processes A three-day course is to be held at the Uni- versity of Cambridge in conjuno tion with TWI. The aim of the course is to allow participants to gain knowledge and confidence in selecting the thermoplastics and joining processes appropriate to their business. The course will present the underlying properties of thermoplastics, their characterization and a description of welding techniques, both well established and novel. Together these will provide the basis for selecting optimal joining processes for different applications and materials. The lectures will be reinforced by practical demonstrations and clinics in the Department of Materials Science and TWI so that delegates will be able to seek expert confidential advice about their own particular engineering problems. The course is designed for engineers and designers who are working with thermoplastics or who have worked in metals and are thinking of changing to these materials. The course would also be of interest to manufacturers of thermoplastic materials who wish to gain an appreciation of this important technology as a means of serving their customers more effectively. The course will be accessible to anyone with a degree or equivalent experience in the field. It is multidisciplinary and no knowledge of the properties of thermoplastics or relevant joining technology is required. Participants will be asked to provide more details of their interests and background prior to the course so that these can be taken into account. The course will be led by Professor Alan Windle from the Department of Materials Science and Dr Martin Wilson from TWI.

The launch took place at Abington, near Cambridge, headquarters of The Welding Institute (TWI) which is running the programme for the UK Department of Trade and Industry. \u2018Joining Forces\u2019 is a trail-blazing initiative to boost the business performance of UK manufacturing companies. To maintain competitiveness these companies need to use the best and most appropriate materials joining processes in their production. However, small and growing companies frequently lack the expertise needed for correct choice and implementation of best practice in joining technology. \u2018Joining Forces\u2019 is designed to give these companies a simple means to assess and evaluate the technology available and its likely impact on their business. The \u2018Joining Forces\u2019 programme gives SMEs easy access to the vast resource of knowledge and know-how that TWI has accumulated during its long involvement with industry worldwide (TWI is an internationally recognized centre of excellence in materials joining technology.) Backed by f5 million seed funding from the DTI, TWI is setting up a range of activities specifically to help small businesses. Technology transfer will be achieved by: Best practice demonstrations at TWI and other sites throughout the UK. Five have already been set up at Abington - adhesives, spray coatings, laser cutting, sheet processes, and microtechnol%Y Video consultation facilities - to provide technical advice rapidly and economically. Product and process reviews and feasibility studies - to identify opportunities for improvement and provide the facts to confirm the business benefits available Workshops and seminars, a user guide, and a help desk - providing up-to-date insights into the commercial benefits of best practice Programme partners - companies in supply chains and others with a vested interest in the success of SMEs are supporting Joining Forces, extending its reach and increasing effectiveness. Companies already committed to programme partnership are ESAB Group (UK) Ltd, Babcock International Group, Eutectic Co Ltd, AAB&TR Ltd, Nexus Media Ltd, Cambridge Vacuum Engineering Ltd and BTM (UK) Ltd. TWI is also working alongside the newly established chain of Business",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a What is Open?\nI hear the word open in many contexts these days, and the actual meaning of the word is seldom made explicit by those invoking it despite the fact that it has become very nuanced and context-dependent. As a result, I've decided to have a crack at establishing a general definition, with special attention paid to the contexts of technology and software which are areas of particular passion for me. The following is a first cut, which is based on what I wrote for the good folks running the Open Source // Open Society conference in Wellington (16-17 April 2015):\n\"Open\" means aiding and encouraging the human urge to share, explore and improve. That sharing is irrevocable, and is not limited by precautionary measures or dependent on permission from some presiding power.\nAnything that thwarts peoples\u2019 desire to share, explore, and improve is closed, not open.\nThe digital movement which has given the global human commons a wealth of Free and Open Source Software, open data, open hardware, and many other \"open\" capabilities taps into the underlying human urge for openness that has always existed. The revolution of permissionless innovation and digital abundance made possible by the Internet has countered the trend over the past century for private \"proprietary\" interests to exploit, and eventually bleed dry, the commons - the wealth of physical, cultural, and digital resources on which we all fundamentally depend. Listed public multinational corporation have been most \"successful\" at privatising profit while \"externalising\" costs, especially to the environment. Their rising dominance has seen the greatest growth in human inequality, and a general imbalance in our ecosystems. They have exacerbated the burdens of our ever increasing population and its own demands on the commons. They, and their adherent mercenaries and governments, are the main threat to openness.\nI will contribute to any efforts to consciously reverse common commercial (and, increasingly, cultural) practises that deny people the right to share, to participate, to collaborate - those things which strive to \"tilt the playing field\" to favour proprietary interests. I encourage us all to celebrate the commons, both physical and virtual, and work to expand and improve commonly-held resources for the benefit of all, rather than to exploit them for our own limited gain.",

        "raw_content": "A Royal Wedding That Affirms Truly Noble Values\nBy Rev. Jesse Jackson, Special to the Sentinel\nIn this Thursday, March 8, 2018 file photo, Britain\u2019s Prince Harry and his fiance Meghan Markle are greeted by flag waving school children as they arrive to take part in an event for young women as part of International Women\u2019s Day in Birmingham, central England. Kensington Palace says the California-born Markle intends to take U.K. citizenship after she marries Harry on May 19 at Windsor Castle. (AP Photo/Matt Dunham, File)\nPrince Harry of Wales, sixth in the line of succession to the British throne, will marry the American actress, Meghan Markle, on Saturday, May 19, with all of the ceremony and global hoopla that the British royalty inevitably attracts. Harry is the son of Charles, the Prince of Wales, and the late Princess Diana. What\u2019s notable about Prince Harry, however, is not so much the royal blood that he inherited, but the royal values that he has chosen to express.\nHarry chose a military career, training at the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst. He was pressured to take safe assignments far from the line of fire. But unlike the many leaders and national security advisers who posture tough but evade the draft or service in the military, he fought hard to stay with his unit and go into battle.\nHe stood with his unit in times of war. With them he shared risk. In 2007-8, he served on the front line in Helmand, Afghanistan, but was pulled after his presence was revealed and the Taliban pledged to throw all their resources into getting him.\nHe then trained as an Apache attack helicopter pilot and returned to Afghanistan in 2012 with the British Army Air Corps. That was more than a display of patriotism. It provided him with real world experience in battle \u2014 an experience that is always sobering, making leaders less casual about sending young men and women into combat across the world. Those who experience battle are often those who best understand why the use of military force should be avoided, undertaken only as a very last resort to avoid greater loss of life.\nPrince Harry and Megan Markle (AP Photo)\nAfter leaving the military, Harry devoted time and energy to veterans, launching the Invictus Games for injured servicemen and women, and he remains a supporter of its foundation. He has traveled often to Africa. As a counselor of state, he visited children\u2019s homes in Lesotho and later launched Sentebale, the Princes\u2019 Fund for Lesotho, a charity to aid children orphaned by HIV/AIDS, a disease that has been a scourge in much of Africa. Last year, he became the president of African Parks, a conservation group. He joined volunteers to translocate elephants to repopulate areas that have been decimated by poaching and environmental destruction. He has called Africa his \u201csecond home,\u201d and will continue to play a role in mobilizing concern for its challenges and attention for its accomplishments.\nHarry\u2019s decision to wed Markle, an African American actress, showed remarkable independence. Markle, a politically progressive, divorced, biracial, feminist American, does not exactly fit the royal tradition. Despite slurs of the tabloid press, she has captivated the British and people across the world like a breath of fresh air. Talking of her experience, she quipped, \u201cIt\u2019s time to focus less on glass slippers and more on glass ceilings.\u201d In full swoon, the press has suggested that the enthusiastic reaction of the public to the remarkably stylish and thoughtful young woman might transform race relations in Britain, revolutionize the house of Windsor, and help strengthen U.S.-British relations strained in the time of Trump. That\u2019s far too much to load onto her shoulders, but there\u2019s no question that the union is a symbol of change.\nMeghan Markle and Doria Ragland attend UN Women\u2019s 20th Anniversary of the Fourth World Conference of Women in Beijing at Manhattan Centre at Hammerstein Ballroom on March 10, 2015 in New York City. (Photo by Sylvain Gaboury/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images)\n\u201cIt is difficult to overstate how important it is to have a member of the royal family \u2026 who is mixed race and embracing her heritage and stating that is very much part of her,\u201d historian Ted Powell told the Observer: \u201cIt is hugely positive for Britain, particularly in the wake of Brexit and the controversies of immigration policy and race.\u2019\u201d\nAs an heir to the throne, Prince Harry\u2019s marriage needed the formal consent of his grandmother, the Queen of England. When she provided it, it provided an unprecedented royal seal of approval not simply of Markle but also of the diverse peoples of the Commonwealth. In itself, the marriage won\u2019t change race relations in Britain, or erase the legacy of colonialism across the commonwealth. It is a marker, not a motor force of change. But in a time of growing racial division and of leaders fanning hatred and nationalist furies, it is a marker that points in a hopeful direction. And that is worth celebrating.\nWe wish the newlyweds well.\nCategories: Local | National | News | Op-Ed | Opinion | Rev.

        "title": "Lunch & Latte: New books | Summer 2018",
        "raw_content": "New books | Summer 2018\nIn the past few weeks I have been pondering over these lines by American poet Mary Oliver (from 'The Summer Day', appeared in New and Selected Poems, Vol. One) and still have no answer. Her simple question is thought-provoking, to say the least. I feel as if I haven't quite landed in Germany. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to move back to the Continent - the culture and way of living in this part of Europe suits me better - I just thought by now I would be more settled. I have been looking for a part-time job where I get a chance to improve my spoken German before taking on something more challenging but haven't found anything. A bookshop didn't even reply to my email. How ironic is that? The good news is that our oldest has finished her studies in Scotland. We went on a road trip to pick her up, took a ferry across the Channel from Calais and got to admire the White Cliffs of Dover again.\nAt this point I have a few drafts lined up but I wanted to end my blog silence with a list of new books. I'm excited about Michael Ondaatje\u2019s novel Warlight, his first in seven years. If you like his work allow me to point out Eleanor Wachtel's recent interview with him for CBC Radio. Her podcast Writers and Company is one of the finest for book lovers.\n\u00b7 Warlight by Michael Ondaatje (Vintage). The last book I read by him was Anil's Ghost, and before that, The English Patient. Liked both. You may already have spotted the cover in the blog's sidebar; expect to find it on a reading list in the near future.\n\u00b7 The Beautiful Summer by Cesare Pavese (Penguin). A coming-of-age story that takes place in Italy in the 1930s. Originally published in 1949.\n\u00b7 The Years by Annie Ernaux (Fitzcarraldo, translated by Alison L. Strayer). This is the UK edition of her memoir, which has already been published in the US. '[A] masterpiece memoir of French life' reads the title of The Guardian review. I was intrigued and intend to read the book, even though I have never read anything by the author.\n\u00b7 There There by Tommy Orange (Vintage). One of two debut novels on this list of new books, set in a Native American community in Oakland, California, where the author himself was born and raised. This one is getting a lot of good reviews. Like the cover.\n\u00b7 100 Books That Changed the World by Scott Christianson and Colin Salter (Rizzoli). 'A tour of global history by way of history\u2019s most important scrolls, manuscripts, and printed books, from Plato and Homer to the twenty-first century\u2014100 must reads.' A book about books that could be fun to have on the coffee table. This one was published in the spring but I wanted to include it on the list.\n\u00b7 The Collected Stories of Machado de Assis (Liveright Publishing, translated by Margaret Jull Costa + Robin Patterson). I honestly don't remember having heard of Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis (1839-1908), the greatest Brazilian writer, until reading Parul Sehgal's review in The New York Times. Hanging my head in shame. If you like short stories you will be happy to learn that the collection is 930 pages.\n\u00b7 A Place for Us by Fatima Farheen Mirza (Vintage). A debut novel about an Indian Muslim family preparing for the wedding of their daughter. Editorial director Sarah Jessica Parker chose the book for her own imprint, SJP for Hogarth. I'm often wary when celebrities endorse something but I know Parker is a keen reader and she has recommended good books in the past. This Guardian Q&A with the author, a Californian of Indian descent, might interest you.\n\u00b7 The Outsider by Stephen King (Hodder & Stoughton). And finally, a crime novel for the King fans out there.\nCaf\u00e9 T\u00f6lke in the Schnoor quarter of Bremen\nIn the spring I meant to share images from Bremen on the blog but things got in the way. Summer came early and on a warm Sunday I bicycled into the city centre and went for a stroll in the old Schnoor quarter. It was too sunny for photographing but I snapped this photo that captures the mood at Caf\u00e9 T\u00f6lke, one of the first caf\u00e9s I tried when we moved here. A small, charming place that specialises in cakes and pies. Once you have found a table and sit there with your coffee and Apfelstrudel you may get the feeling that as long as it stays open the world is going to be okay. That's the atmosphere of some caf\u00e9s.\nimages by me | 1: appeared on Instagram, 05/03/2018 | 2: Instagram, 28/05/2018\nlabels: \u00b7 BOOKS & COFFEE, books, bremen, caf\u00e9s, cities, crime, fiction, life writing, literature, mary oliver, non-fiction, poetry, short stories, summer, translations\nGood to read from you after all this time! I think only Ondaatje's book looks like something that would appeal to me. But for me the main takeaways from your entry are the opening and closing thoughts. The opening question in particular is worth asking oneself every now and then.\nI hope that question hasn't opened Pandora's box!\nSo happy that you got a Brazilian author in your list!!! (I'm Brazilian)\nMy suggestion is Dom Casmurro, a wonderful book also by him. He is one of the best Brazilian author of all time.\nThank you for the recommendation, Sharon. I have added Dom Casmurro to my TBR.",

        "raw_content": "Lawyers drink.\nThe image of lawyers clinking their glasses\u2014to celebrate a victory, mourn a loss, close a deal, or for pretty much any old excuse\u2014has long been part of the legal culture. Yet there has been little or no research into the true state of substance abuse and mental illness in the law for 25 years. That changed this year with the publication of a new study of over 12,000 lawyers in 19 states. The results, as the study\u2019s lead author put it, are \u201cdisheartening but not surprising.\u201d\nThe research shows that lawyers grapple with significantly higher rates of problematic alcohol and drug use than other professionals and the rest of the population, including depression, anxiety, and stress.\nThe study, conducted by the American Bar Association and the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, surveyed lawyers about alcohol and drug use and mental health challenges.\nIn the 25 years since the last major study, lawyers have continued to abuse alcohol at alarmingly high rates. Over 20% of lawyers surveyed indicated problematic drinking. In comparison, the study reported, only 11.8% of a highly educated workforce screened positive by the same measure in a separate study. Only 6.8% of the general adult population has alcohol abuse disorders, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.\nMen had a significantly higher proportion of positive screens for problematic alcohol use than women did. On one measure, which assessed how much and how often someone drinks, over a third (36%) of lawyers scored at levels consistent with hazardous drinking. Compare that with only 15% of physicians on the same measure.\nIn a reversal from earlier studies, the new research revealed that the first ten years of practice are the most highly correlated with problematic drinking. Younger attorneys were significantly more likely than their older colleagues to report hazardous use of alcohol. Of the respondents who believed their alcohol use was a problem, nearly 44% reported that the problem surfaced within 15 years of leaving law school, compared with only 14% reporting that the problem arose during law school and 27% saying it began earlier than law school. The study concludes, \u201cit is reasonable to surmise from these findings that being in the early stages of one\u2019s legal career is strongly correlated with a high risk of developing an alcohol use disorder.\u201d\nMental health problems often co-occur with alcohol and substance abuse. This study revealed high levels of depression, stress, and anxiety among attorneys, and the levels were particularly high among those screening positive for alcohol abuse. Specifically, 28% of those surveyed reported mild or high levels of depression, 19% reported anxiety, and 23% reported mild or high stress.\nFinally, unlike the general population, lawyers are less likely to seek treatment unless they are required to.\nAlthough the results of the study are alarming, the lead author of the study, Patrick Krill, of the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, hopes that the profession will see the research as an opportunity. \u201cI hope that the time and attention paid to the issues raised by the research will be an opportunity for the profession to begin charting a new course.\u201d\nThe profession\u2019s new course will have to involve systemic change. Krill notes that no group of attorneys is immune from problematic substance use or from mental health challenges. Across regions, practice areas, and practice settings, the findings showed consistently high rates of alcohol use and mental health challenges. The widespread nature of the problem, Krill observes, will require the involvement of lawyers themselves, law schools, and law firms, in addition to existing lawyers assistance programs.\nKrill notes that, in the long term, shifts in culture will be important. \u201cAny way you look at it, this data is very alarming,\u201d Krill said. \u201c[It] paints a picture of an unsustainable professional culture that\u2019s harming too many people.\u201d\nCurrently, heavy drinking is normalized across the board in the legal profession, especially within many law firms. To make matters worse, competition, perfection, and conflict can create the perfect breeding ground for alcoholism and substance abuse, particularly when the law is, by nature, stressful and intense. Krill suggests that leading law firms (e.g., AmLaw 100 firms) and top-ranked law schools take a hard look at how they could support change. They have an opportunity to change the definition what qualifies as acceptable behavior.\nLaw schools have an especially important role to play since they teach the next generation of lawyers the values and norms of the profession. Linda Albert, who co-authored the new study and is a representative of the ABA\u2019s Commission on Lawyers Assistance Programs, suggests that law schools mandate classes on drug and alcohol issues, with a particular emphasis on the relationship between impaired lawyers and ethical violations. Albert adds that law schools need to improve the messaging that getting help is the responsible, strong course of action. Young attorneys, Krill says, need to enter their working years with \u201ctheir eyes wide open\u201d to the risks of substance abuse.\nKrill adds that behavioral health needs to be more closely tied to attorney competence, performance, and even to the bottom line. He emphasizes, though, that an attorney who has recovered from addiction, mental illness, or other substance abuse problems, can often be a superb attorney. Sometimes the people who have recovered are \u201cbetter professionals,\u201d he notes, because they are clear mentally and are committed to ethical, honest work, some of the highest values of our profession.\nIndividual attorneys should not wait for systemic change, though. If you suspect you may be struggling with a mental health issue or substance abuse challenge, don\u2019t wait to seek help. Every state has a lawyers assistance program, and there are many other treatment options as well. A directory of programs can be found at the ABA\u2019s Commission on Lawyer Assistance Programs. If there is a silver lining to the study, lawyers should now realize they are not alone and help is available.",

        "title": "Services and Human Spaceflight \u2013 Leading Space",
        "raw_content": "I\u2019d like to share some background to stress how important it is to consider this question from a different viewpoint.\nFirst, the US federal government is itself a provider of services as one of its primary functions. It mostly focuses on services that are not available in the private sector, because either the associated benefit is not directly \u201cmonetizable\u201d and thus cannot be traded against cost in a benefit-cost analysis, or the perceived implementation risks are too high to be borne by the private sector. Services provided by governments worldwide have evolved over time, with modern roots in the \u201cFordian\u201d approach of the auto assembly line, and presently taking on some \u201cpost-Fordian\u201d aspects driven by advancements in information technology, increasing globalization, and more widespread democratization. A key aspect of evolution of government services is that with time, they become optimized to the regulatory and socioeconomic environment they face. Keep this in mind as we talk about moving ahead, shortly.\nSecond, in the US private sector, the preponderance of economic growth over the last half century has been in services. Companies \u201cbuilt to last\u201d that predate this growth period adapted successfully in part by shifting from manufacturing to services, whether we talking about examples such as General Electric or IBM. Other late-entrant firms with roots in \u201ctraditional\u201d products such as HP and Dell are also making the shift today to more service-oriented business models. Even Apple, when considered from a different viewpoint, is in the services business; even though one could argue that Apple is in the business to sell products such as Macs and iPhones, Apple recognizes that these products coupled with services makes for a powerful combination. (Additionally, Apple\u2019s success is due in large part to understanding what constitutes successful services, which I\u2019ll cover later.) With all the recent talk by the current Administration of pushing growth in the manufacturing sector, the real potential for the future is in the continued growth of services, again driven by evolution in the same aspects I mentioned earlier: information technology, globalization, and democratization.\nOK, so what does all of this background have to do with human spaceflight?\nFor starters, it sets the stage for change, in thinking about the business models around human spaceflight in a different way. Here is what I mean.\nServices are not processes. Now, I\u2019m getting to one of the rubs that cause endless internal debates when we talk about services. For example, in my little corner of NASA, we\u2019ve developed a highly\u2013optimized set of plan/train/fly processes for NASA\u2019s human spaceflight programs, with origins in the world of flight testing of high performance aircraft, and adapted for the rigors of human spaceflight over the last 50 years. Speaking in a general sense, however, we cannot assume that a set of processes optimized under one set of constraints (i.e., highly regulated, fiscally-constrained monopolistic environment) will yield the most optimal solution under another (i.e., free markets), or that it will even be deemed of value at all under that different set of constraints. One way to test that assumption is to offer those services as-is in a competitive market \u2013 if such a market exists. However, if a competitive market doesn\u2019t exist, another way to test the assumption is to think not in terms of processes, but rather in terms of customers and \u201cexperiences.\u201d Such thinking completely turns upside down the \u201cFordian\u201d process-oriented mentality, such as the government-run human spaceflight program to date. This is an extremely difficult transformational change to make \u2013 all we have to do is count the tens of examples of failure to change successfully in the private sector for the one success that is General Electric or IBM. I can see why Clayton Christensen\u2019s disruptive innovation is such a popular topic nowadays.\nLet me build upon this reversal of viewpoint a bit further. The path to a successful transformation passes through a key realization: services are about relationships. In looking at the value equation, where value equals benefit minus cost, the transformation from process thinking to service orientation starts with the concept of value delivered over time. With the passage of time, the surrounding circumstances, needs, and environment change. To respond to that change, the service needs to adapt for value to continue to be realized. A consequence of considering the time domain in value is that the value equation becomes more complex. It\u2019s not about a point-benefit offered in exchange for a point-cost; instead, value is co-created by the mutual interaction of provider and recipient over time, with services that are customizable and flexible. Therefore, a good service is as much about the relationship with the customer and the customer experience as it is the execution of a process by the provider. In the highly constrained regulatory and fiscal environment we face in the public sector, the need for flexibility and the capability to adapt services can be hard to embrace, and I don\u2019t pretend to have easy answers here. I do have some starting points to suggest, however.\nBuild relationships instead of processes. Relationships are built person-to-person by the continuous exchange of stories, experiences, ideas, needs, and desired outcomes. People who really understand customer service, such as my friend Kate Nasser, realize the importance of relationships in driving teamwork, customer experiences, and adapting to change. It goes even further. Business development managers in the private sector realize the importance of networking and building relationships as a means to developing future business opportunities and creating value. As an example, the Strategic Opportunities and Partnerships Development office at the Johnson Space Center has created a handful of \u201crelationship manager\u201d positions to engage with commercial firms for potential partnerships, which I see as a very encouraging step. It is through relationships that new value can be identified and created through the modification and tailoring of services, in response to a changing environment. Without mutually beneficial relationships, value cannot be co-created.\nIdentify needless obstacles and get rid of them. Put simply, needless obstacles are value destroyers. For instance, consider moving from Government-owned to commercial transportation services for access to low Earth orbit. If we blindly subject the latter to the same regulatory and fiscal constraints as the former, we likely will get a re-creation of the same solutions we already have, with no improvements in performance or cost. Where is the value in that? Speaking broadly, it is incumbent upon us in the public sector to eliminate as much of the imposed complexity as we can, so that private sector solutions can focus on the inherent complexity that is human spaceflight and thus deliver better performance at a lower cost. Again, this is easier said than done. In my opinion, we in the public sector are great at creating new regulations and devising new processes to follow; however, we\u2019re not so good at getting rid of the needless ones. This will be another hard challenge, but one that we must face if we are to transform successfully to a service orientation.\nAs I continue in my role for devising strategies for NASA\u2019s plan/train/fly services, I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll continue to hone my view of services, ways to co-create value through relationships, and ways to remove obstacles. As I do so, I\u2019ll share updates here on LeadingSpace.\nEverything is a Service discusses the emerging service economy and why thinking about services differently is a key to our economic future.\nChanging Role of Local Government as a Service Provider discusses the evolution of governance in the public sector and why \u201cFordian\u201d approaches in government don\u2019t work anymore.\nPhoto credit: \u201cWorker Bee\u201d by Andy Brooks via FotoPlanet, used under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license.",

        "raw_content": "Race preview: GP Jef Scherens - Rondom Leuven\nTomorrow Leopard Pro Cycling takes on the GP Jef Scherens - Rondom Leuven, a difficult UCI 1.1 race in Belgium with lots of hills that can cause a change in the race scenario lap after lap.\nROSTER: Jan Brockhoff, Alexander Krieger, Filip Maciejuk, Ga\u00ebtan Pons, Szymon Rekita, Jens Reynders & Mario Spengler - DS: Markus Zingen\nWhen the race calendar says mid September, it's traditionally time for the GP Jef Scherens - Rondom Leuven. The race heads into its 52nd edition this year and can always count of a lot of publicity, especially since it's part of the Napoleon Games Cycling Cup. Being the 8th race in this competition, one can expect a real battle for not only the win, but also for the lead in the overall ranking. The GP Jef Scherens is a 186 kilometer long race, divided into 13 laps of about fourteen kilometers each. After the team presentation at the Grote Markt in Leuven, the start will be given at 12h30, sending the riders immediately up the first climb on the circuit, the Keizersberg (390 meters at 6,5%). Five kilometers later, the L\u00fcdenscheidsingel (1200 meters at 3%) will be next and after the descent, the Wijnpersstraat (350 meters at 9%) will already be in front of the riders wheels. At the top of the Naamsevest (415 meters at 3%) - the last climb on the circuit -, there are only about 1500 meters left to the finish line. Repeat this thirteen times and you have a not to underestimated race.\nLast year, Leopard Pro Cycling showed itself by having Szymon Rekita and Alexander Krieger both in some counter-attacks. In the end, all came back together for a bunch sprint, in which Alexander Krieger managed to cross the line in eighth position. Both Rekita and Krieger are also present this year and together with the five other Leopard riders, they are more than eager to show themselves to the crowds and the cameras of VTM, RTBF and Eurosport. In Leuven there will be three WorldTour, nine Pro Continental and 11 Continental teams at the start line, making the peloton 159 riders strong. For Leopard Pro Cycling, the competition will be strong, but the riders did already show this entire season that they are more than capable of competing with the best. One rider that is very motivated is Belgian Jens Reynders, who races close to his home roads.\nJens Reynders: \"I am really looking forward to the race as I will be racing on roads that are not far away from home. I don't have that good memories to the GP Jef Scherens, as last year I was not able to finish the race due to what turned out to be the Eppstein-Barr Virus. Now, I don't have any difficulties and I just hope for good legs tomorrow. The circuit looks good to me and I should be able to show myself. I want to play a role in the final of the race.\"",

        "raw_content": "Graham Sutherland with his unfinished portrait of Winston Churchill, 1954. (Photo: Getty)\nWhen Graham Sutherland\u2019s painting was unveiled in 1954, it was dismissed as \u2018filthy\u2019 by its illustrious subject\nWinston Churchill was no Adonis but most of his portraitists did what they could to flatter him. However, when the British artist Graham Sutherland (1903\u201380) was commissioned to paint a full-length portrait of Churchill in 1954 for 1,000 guineas (about \u00a327,000 today), paid by the House of Commons and the House of Lords, and to be presented in a lavish public ceremony, things did not go well.\nSutherland was chosen not by Churchill but by members of the Houses of Parliament in honour of his 80th birthday. Churchill asked to be portrayed in his Knight of the Garter robes but the commissioners specified he be portrayed as he most commonly dressed when visiting Parliament. Sutherland prepared for the portrait by making charcoal sketches of his subject\u2019s face and hands on several occasions at the Churchill home at Chartwell, in August 1954. For inspiration, Sutherland referred to one of Churchill\u2019s many memorable quotes: \u2018I am a rock.\u2019\nChurchill reluctantly accepts Graham Sutherland\u2019s portrait in Westminster Hall in November 1954\nThe result, when it was revealed on November 20 1954 to Clementine Churchill, was not a smashing success. While Lady Churchill was said to have remarked that it looked \u2018really quite alarmingly like him\u2019, and Churchill\u2019s son, Randolph, thought it made his father look \u2018disenchanted\u2019, the sitter himself hated it at once. On seeing a photograph of it, he called it \u2018malignant \u2026 filthy\u2019. Ten days before the official presentation, he wrote to Sutherland, rejecting the painting and declaring that the ceremony would not include it. He was persuaded only with great difficulty to accept the portrait at the ceremony in order to avoid causing offence. The presentation was to be televised, which meant Churchill was obliged to compliment the painting, though he did so with faint (one might say feint) praise, saying that it displayed \u2018force and candour\u2019 and was \u2018a remarkable example of modern art\u2019. One of his political opponents described it as \u2018a beautiful work\u2019, while an ally dismissed it as \u2018disgusting\u2019.\nThe work was destined for permanent display in the Houses of Parliament after Churchill\u2019s death, but it was initially given to him as a gift. It was destroyed shortly thereafter, with news of its obliteration emerging only in 1978. Lady Churchill had hidden it in the cellar at Chartwell; at her request, the Churchills\u2019 private secretary, Grace Hamblin, had it removed and secretly burned on a bonfire. Word came that this was not the first Churchill portrait his wife saw fit to condemn: those by Paul Maze and Walter Sickert also disappeared under her watch. Sutherland considered the destruction of his painting an act of vandalism, but when one considers that portraits, particularly official ones for public display, have always been a combination of visual record and propaganda, it is perhaps unsurprising that a likeness the subject did not consider flattering should have been suppressed.\nNoah Charney\u2019s The Museum of Lost Art is out now.",

They constitute the divine and only rule of Christian faith and practice.15\nMan was originally created in the image and likeness of God:16 he fell through disobedience, incurring thereby both physical and spiritual death. All men are born with a sinful nature,17 are separated from the life of God, and can be saved only through the atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ.18 The portion of the unrepentant and unbelieving is existence forever in conscious torment;19 and that of the believer, in everlasting joy and bliss.20 Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all men; and those who repent and believe in Him are born again of the Holy Spirit, receive the gift of eternal life, and become the children of God.21\nIt is the will of God that each believer should be filled with the Holy Spirit and be sanctified wholly,22 being separated from sin and the world and fully dedicated to the will of God, thereby receiving power for holy living and effective service.23 This is both a crisis and a progressive experience wrought in the life of the believer subsequent to conversion.24\nProvision is made in the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ for the healing of the mortal body.25 Prayer for the sick and anointing with oil are taught in the Scriptures and are privileges for the Church in this present age.26\nThe Church consists of all those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, are redeemed through His blood, and are born again of the Holy Spirit. Christ is the Head of the Body, the Church,27 which has been commissioned by Him to go into all the world as a witness, preaching the gospel to all nations.28 The local church is a body of believers in Christ who are joined together for the worship of God, for edification through the Word of God, for prayer, fellowship, the proclamation of the gospel, and observance of the ordinances of Baptism and the Lord\u2019s Supper.29\nThere shall be a bodily resurrection of the just and of the unjust; for the former, a resurrection unto life;30 for the latter, a resurrection unto judgment.31 The second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is imminent32 and will be personal, visible, and premillennial.33 This is the believer\u2019s blessed hope and is a vital truth which is an incentive to holy living and faithful service.34\nScripture References: 1Deuteronomy 6:4, 2Matthew 5:48, 3Matthew 28:19, 4Philippians 2:6-11, 5Luke 1:36-38, 61 Peter 3:18, 7Hebrews 2:9, 8Romans 5:9, 9Acts 2:23\u201324, 10Hebrews 8:1, 11Matthew 26:64, 12John 14:15\u201318, 13John 16:13, Acts 1:9, 14John 16:7\u201311, 152 Peter 1:20\u201321, 2 Timothy 3:15\u201316, 16Genesis 1:27, 17Romans 3:23, 181 Corinthians15:20\u201323, 19Revelation 21:8, 20Revelation 21:1\u20134, 21Titus 3:4\u20137, 221 Thessalonians 5:23, 23Acts 1:8, 24Romans 6:1\u201314, 25Matthew 8:16\u201317, 26James 5:13\u201316, 27Ephesians 1:22\u201323, 28Matthew 28:19\u201320, 29Acts 2:41\u201347, 301 Corinthians 15:20\u201323, 31John 5:28\u201329, 32Hebrews 10:37, 33Luke 21:27, 34Titus 2:11\u201314",

In order to make the aircraft track the desired trajectory, a nested double-loops control system is adopted in this paper. A position error proportional-derivative (PD) controller is designed as the outer-loop controller based on the coupling action between rotational and translational movement, and an adaptive backstepping sliding mode control algorithm is used to stabilize the attitude. Finally, both the numerical simulation and prototype experiment are utilized to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control system.\nQuad-rotor nested double-loops coupling action adaptive backstepping sliding mode\nThis work was supported by Chinese Academy of Sciences (No. yyyj-1112).\nXun Gong graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), China in 2005.

        "raw_content": "When studying science, we quickly grow accustomed to putting everything into categories. By the time we are in junior high, we\u2019ve probably heard something relating to this: \u201cKing Philip Came Over For Good Soup\u201d; what does this truly mean? Literally, it looks as though Philip was a soup connoisseur, but figuratively it is referring to the scientific classifications: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. This is what makes science so great \u2013 everything is concrete when it comes to the answers.\nScientists like to put everything into groups. If everything within nature was simplified, this would be easy, but one cannot simplify the components of the natural world. This is where we find the Aquifoliaceae family; a flowering plant family with only one genus.\nThe American Holly, Ilex opaca, falls under this family. Looking at the plant, it doesn\u2019t seem as though it would fit into the deciduous family, because all the leaves do not fall off at once. It wouldn\u2019t be coniferous because it doesn\u2019t have any cones. The American Holly is considered to be a broad-leaved evergreen tree; it is combination of both deciduous and evergreen trees. This allows the tree to photosynthesize in all four seasons.\nThe American Holly is a tree that can grow up to 40-60 feet tall. We have many Holly trees on the Lloyd Center property. You can determine the females from the males by the bright red berries on the braches. Many animals use the American Holly as shelter and as a food source; so while you are all bundled up and walking on the trails, keep your eyes open for this magnificent tree!",

        "raw_content": "HBO\u2019s The Sunset Limited-Hollywood\u2019s Attempt at Exploring Faith and Existence\nI was up late one night flipping through the channels and came across a movie that had two of my favorite actors-Samuel L Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones, sitting at a table discussing deep philosophical and theological issues. The name of the movie is The Sunset Limited. Adapted from the stage play by Pulitzer Prize Winner Cormac McCarthy, the movie brings life to the real disparities of faith and life many people struggle with.\nThe two characters, White and Black (respective to their ethnicity) are brought together by what appears to be a moment of chance as Black , a deeply religious ex-con, saves White, an apathetic and atheist college professor from a suicide attempt of jumping in front of a subway train named Sunset Limited. Upon returning to Black\u2019s apartment in the slums of New York, the two engage in a deep dialogue of philosophy, faith, and life. Even the setting of their dialogue, a simple table in a one room slum apartment can be seen as a symbol for the need to simplify our environment so that we may engage our inner self.\nIt\u2019s not often that Hollywood would tackle the deep philosophical questions of suffering, life, and faith, but this movie does a great job. Jackson plays the role of a deeply religious man who while not fully understanding his faith, accepts it and questions it at the same time. Jones plays the role of an educated atheist man overcome with the despair of his existence. Both men existentially present arguments to counter the other\u2019s faith both in religion and natural order and in my opinion, both are successful at convincing the other that each of their arguments amount to nothing more than fleeting fallacies. This is evident in the very beginning dialogue of the movie where Mr. Black says, \u2018What am I supposed to do with you, Professor?\u2019 and White says, \u2018Why are you supposed to do anything\u2026 \u2018Take action? There\u2019s only one action that would have any meaning, and that\u2019s to jump in front of a train.\u201d Watching the interaction of the two men and listening to the dialogue, it\u2019s hard to decide who is more likeable and believable enough to support Mr.White or Mr. Black.\nFor me, the most moving part of the movie was at the end. It is here that Mr. White comes to grip with his angst, despair, and dread and although presented with the alternative, chooses to leave in the same state of being. This leads Mr. Black to fall on his knees and cry out to his God-\u201cI tried, you know I tried.\u201d It is as if the ending is attempting to bring the audience to question whether or not efforts to prevent fate are worth it. It certainly leaves the watcher with deep pressing questions that he or she may engage with his or her self that could press them to either draw closer or further away from faith and life.\nI strongly recommend this film for both its existential relevance, but also because it has two of today\u2019s best actors tackling roles that relate to the average person and are highly likeable.\nPrevious Post A pastor resorts to profanity teaching in the pulpit?!\nNext Post How High Can You Jump?",

        "raw_content": "Amendment of the Social Tax Act was not supported by the Riigikogu\nThe Bill on Amendments to the Social Tax Act, initiated by the Estonian Conservative People\u2019s Party Faction, was not supported by the Riigikogu at today\u2019s sitting.\nThe Bill on Amendments to the Social Tax Act (253 SE) provided for extension of the range of people for whom the state would pay social tax. The current provision of the Act under which the state pays social tax for non-working parent who is raising three or more children below 19 years of age, at least one of whom is 8 years of age, was intended to be amended by including all children of a family with many children until they attain 19 years of age.\nMartin Helme, who took the floor on behalf of the initiators of the Bill, pointed out that the Bill is necessary to extend the range of people for whom the state would pay social tax. \u201cThe aim is to create economic security for families with many children so that the state would take more special care of raising children in families with many children. The parent who wishes to stay home with the children and commit himself or herself to raising children could do so in a more secure environment,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThis means that if a parent has adult children at home, the state will practically pay social security contribution for him or her, that is, the parent will have health insurance. While at present this applies only to children of up to eight years of age, in the future it would apply until the children become adults,\u201d Helme said.\nHelme pointed out that the declining birth rate and population are the greatest problem in Estonia today. \u201cAs a result of that, the population is ageing and the reproductive potential is falling,\u201d he said. \u201cTo solve this problem, a package of measures will have to be used that would make the whole tax system and the benefits system fairer, and would take into account the contribution that is made to the society by raising children,\u201d the speaker added. Helme also pointed out the impact of emigration.\n\u201cThe section of the current Act covers about 1500 people, and its state budget expenditure is roughly two million euro. According to the calculations of the Conservative People\u2019s Party Faction, the range of people would extend, \u2013 roughly, be doubled, \u2013 and the additional expenditure would remain between 1.5\u20132 million. In total, there are 17 443 parents in Estonia who are raising three or more children of up to 19 years of age,\u201d Helme said. He called on everybody to support this Bill.\nUrve Tiidus, who took the floor on behalf of the lead committee, gave an overview of the discussion that had been held in the committee. She said that the committee had heard also the Government\u2019s position on this Bill, and pointed out that the Government had decided not to support the Bill. Tiidus pointed out the reasons why the Government did not support the Bill.\n\u201cThe first reason was that the impact on the state budget would be greater than has been predicted in this Bill,\u201d the speaker said. \u201cAs regards social impacts, the Government\u2019s position is that too little analysis has been done. In the opinion submitted to the Finance Committee, the Government of the Republic notes that the Bill would facilitate long-term absence from employment in the case of parents who raise children, and would thereby reduce long-term subsistence of families with children,\u201d Tiidus said.\nTiidus pointed out that the Finance Committee had also focused on issues relating to employment. \u201cIt was discussed what impact the Bill would have on stay-home parents in terms of returning to work, and how all this would influence the flexibility of the labour market. The opinion was expressed that the Bill would complicate return to the labour market, and maybe reduce the motivation to return to the labour market,\u201d she said.\nTiidus added that the committee had also touched upon the differences in predicting the financial impact. She pointed out that the Finance Committee had proposed to reject the Bill.\nMart Helme from the Estonian Conservative People\u2019s Party Faction, who took the floor during the debate, proposed not to reject this Bill, and Mihhail Stalnuhhin from the Centre Party Faction said that they support this Bill.\nThe lead committee moved to reject the Bill at the first reading. 48 members of the Riigikogu voted in favour of the motion, 22 voted against, and there were six abstentions. Thus the Bill was dropped from the proceedings of the Riigikogu.",

However, this message has not yet arrived in the minds of many Spanish farmers, especially in the valley where our Finca is situated. The aim of this project is to show that a diverse permaculture, as conducted on our farm, can be just as economically successful as conventional monoculture and, in addition, do much good for the environment and for people alike. In the long term, we hope that our concept will carry over to the surrounding farmlands, since major improvements can only be achieved through a collective effort.\nIn the years to come, the team of the Finca Pata Negra wants to spread the concept of organic agriculture, not only to the farmers of the surrounding valleys, but also to pupils, students and travelers. We want to share our concept with the world and hope that we can build something long-lasting and evolving.",

        "raw_content": "Posted by strattof on March 31, 2012\nRegina\u2019s housing crisis is only getting worse. \u25cfIn October 2011, our city had a vacancy rate of 0.6%, the lowest in the country and down 0.1% from six months earlier. \u25cfIn January 2012, Regina City Council approved the demolition of a 46 unit low-rent apartment block in downtown Regina. \u25cfIn February 2012, Westland Properties, the owner of most of the rental units in the General Hospital area, announced that all of its properties are being reviewed for redevelopment. \u25cfThe 2012 provincial budget, contains nothing new when it comes to affordable housing.\nBI-NATIONAL DAY OF HOUSING ACTION\n10 am Meet on the corner of Victoria Avenue and Lorne Street by Knox Met United Church.\n10 \u2013 11am Distribute information about Regina\u2019s housing crisis in downtown Regina.\nAlong with 1000s of other Canadians and Americans, demand housing justice. Organized by the USA, Canada Alliance of Inhabitants.\nREGINA\u2019S HOUSING CRISIS: 10 KEY FACTS\n1. In 2010, over 3,400 people used one or more of the city\u2019s shelter services. Many others double-bunked, couch-surfed, or lived in overcrowded unhealthy conditions. These latter groups could easily double the number of homeless people in Regina.\n2. Between 2006 and 2010, homeless shelter use in Regina rose by 44.5%.\n3. In 2010, 83.7% of shelter users were unable to find a home to live in after leaving the shelter.\n4. Since 2006, the average resale price of residential homes in Saskatchewan has risen more than 83%.\n5. Between October 2009 and October 2011, the number of apartments in Regina decreased by 260. Over the period, many apartment buildings were converted to condominiums.\n6. Regina\u2019s apartment vacancy rate has remained at or below 1% since 2008. A 3% vacancy rate is considered normal. Since April 2011, Regina has had the lowest apartment vacancy rate in Canada.\n7. Since 2006, average rents in Regina have increased by 9% a year. Between 2006 and 2010, average rents in Regina went up 43%.\n8. The average monthly rate for a one bedroom apartment in Regina in October 2011 was $790, an increase of $48 (6.5%) a month from the previous year. Assuming a 40-hour work week for 4.34 weeks a month, individuals earning the minimum wage of $9.50 an hour would spend approximately 49% of their before-tax income on rent for a one-bedroom apartment. The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation defines \u201cAffordable Housing\u201d as costing a household 30% or less of its before-tax income.\n9. A cashier earning $1,811.30 per month cannot afford a one bedroom apartment in Regina. Nor can a security guard earning $2,031.43 per month or a food services supervisor earning $2,395 per month.\n10. For a minimum wage-earner to afford a bachelor apartment in Regina, the minimum wage would have to rise from its current rate of $9.50 to $10.04 per hour. A three bedroom apartment would require a minimum wage of $20.35.\nThe biggest causes of homelessness are\n1. Financial: loss of a job, rent increases, a fixed income;\n2. Lack of affordable housing.\nRelying on the private sector to solve the housing crisis will only send more people out into the cold. The Saskatchewan housing market has been unregulated for 20 years. If it were in the interest of the private sector to provide affordable housing, it would already have done so and there would be no housing crisis.\nThe solution to the housing crisis is intervention in the housing market by all levels of government. Here are some of the things each level of government can do:\nCITY COUNCIL can\nDevelop affordable housing units that would be managed by the Regina Housing Authority.\nRequire developers to include affordable housing in their plans or to pay a fee into an affordable housing account.\nDeny applications for demolition permits when the apartment vacancy rate is under 3%.\nPut pressure on the federal government to develop a long-term national affordable housing program involving all levels of government.\nTHE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT can\nBuild affordable homes and rental accommodation.\nAllocate 3% of all natural resource royalties to affordable housing.\nTHE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT can\nDevelop a long-term national affordable housing program involving all levels of government.\nBOOM FOR WHOM?\nOur city is experiencing unprecedented prosperity. But clearly the economic good times have not delivered equally good results for all. As a result, there is more and more misery and suffering.\nWe could house everyone if we had the will to do so. What kind of city do we want to live in?\nSafe, secure housing is a human right.\nIt is protected under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: \u201cEveryone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, [and] housing.\u201d\nThe right to housing is also enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, signed into law in 1982. Because it puts their health and life at risk, homelessness breaches a homeless person\u2019s Charter Section 7 rights to \u201clife, liberty and security of person.\u201d\nPosted in justice | Leave a Comment \u00bb\nIRAN: GREATEST THREAT TO WORLD PEACE?\nAccording to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Iran \u201cis the world\u2019s most serious threat to international peace and security.\u201d It is, he says, \u201cbeyond dispute\u201d that the goal of Iran\u2019s nuclear program is \u201cthe development of nuclear weapons,\u201d and that Iran would have \u201cno hesitation\u201d to use nuclear weapons should it acquire them.\nIn making such claims, the Harper government is preparing the ground for Canadian involvement in an Israeli- or US-led military campaign against Iran. Before we are stampeded into supporting yet another war, we need clear answers to two questions:\nIs Iran developing nuclear weapons?\nWhat would be the consequences of an attack on Iran?\nThere is no evidence that Iran is attempting or planning to build a bomb.\nIran itself denies the charge, insisting that the sole aim of its nuclear program is to develop the ability to produce nuclear energy for peaceful, power-generating purposes, as it is entitled to do under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.\nMore crucially, none of the reports of the International Atomic Energy Agency indicate that Iran has developed or is about the develop nuclear weapons. The worst the IAEA has said is that it \u201ccontinues to have serious concerns regarding possible military dimensions to Iran\u2019s nuclear program\u201d (Report to UN Security Council, February 24 2012, emphasis added).\nLast month, US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta told US legislators that, while Iran is enriching uranium for its nuclear power program, \u201cintelligence does not show that they\u2019ve made the decision to proceed with developing a nuclear weapon.\u201d\nWEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, the same discredited argument used to justify the disaster of Iraq, is being used to make the case for an attack on Iran.\nIf Stephen Harper had been Prime Minister of Canada in 2003, Canada would have gone to war against Iraq. The then leader of the Conservative opposition wrote to the Wall Street Journal that the Liberal government\u2019s decision to stay out of Iraq was a \u201cserious mistake\u201d and that disarming Iraq was \u201cnecessary for the long-term security of the world.\u201d\nMassive Civilian Casualties: Bombing Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities would kill large numbers of Iranian civilians. It would also spew radioactive materials into the air and water of Iran and beyond.\nRetaliation: Another western attack on a Muslim state would likely trigger retaliation, putting the lives of civilians in western countries in danger.\nEconomic Havoc: An attack would damage the international oil market and hence further weaken the global economy.\nRegional Conflagration: Iran\u2019s regional allies in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Gaza, and the Gulf would be mobilized.\nGlobal Conflagration: An attack on Iran might trigger a Third World War as it has the potential to bring nuclear-armed Russia, China, and Pakistan into the conflict.\nWhich is a greater threat to world peace:\nIran or Stephen Harper?\nNUCLEAR DOUBLE STANDARDS: 4 EXAMPLES\n1. Iran has no nuclear weapons and western countries are threatening it with dire consequences for failing to reveal what it is doing in the nuclear area. Israel, Iran\u2019s main adversary, has a huge arsenal of unacknowledged nuclear weapons and western countries aren\u2019t saying anything. In other words, Israel is allowed to have as many nuclear weapons as it wants, while Iran is not allowed to have any.\n2. Iran is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Israel has openly defied the Treaty by refusing to sign it. And while Iran has subjected itself to international inspections, Israel has refused to open up its actually existing nuclear weapons program to international scrutiny. Yet it is Iran, not Israel, which is being severely punished with crippling sanctions and threatened with attack. Israel, by contrast, is being given economic, military, and diplomatic support.\n3. Israel is the most aggressive state in the region, having conducted military attacks on other countries at least four times since 2006. Iran, by comparison, has never attacked another country in modern history. Yet it is Iran, not Israel, that western leaders and media describe as aggressive and highly dangerous.\n4. The IAEA does not publish reports on US nuclear weapons, currently numbering 5,133 warheads. Nor does it say anything about Britain\u2019s and France\u2019s nuclear weapons.\nELIMINATION OF ALL NUCLEAR WEAPONS\nIf the United States and Israel, along with Russia, Britain, France, China, India, Pakistan, and North Korea, can have nuclear weapons, why can\u2019t Iran? How can the US, which is the only country ever to have used nuclear weapons, forbid others to have their own?\n\u201cSo long as [nuclear] weapons exist, it is inevitable that the horror of Hiroshima and Nagasaki will be repeated\u2013somewhere, sometime\u2013in an unforgivable affront to humanity itself\u201d (Takashi Hiraoka, Mayor of Hiroshima, Hiroshima Peace Declaration, 6 August 1995).\nThe only way to stop nuclear proliferation is to create a world in which there are no nuclear weapons. Our first task, then, is to call on all nuclear weapons states to destroy their nuclear weapons.\nNo nuclear weapons in Iran! No nuclear weapons in Israel! No nuclear weapons in the United State. No nuclear weapons in Britain, France, Russia, China, India, Pakistan, or North Korea!\nNO NUCLEAR WEAPONS ANYWHERE!\nPosted in justice, peace activism | Leave a Comment \u00bb\nREGINA PUBLIC LIBRARY: UNDER ATTACK AGAIN?\nIn 2003, the Library Board, with the support of City Council, announced the closure of three library branches\u2013Connaught, Glen Elm, and Prince of Wales\u2013along with the main branch\u2019s Dunlop Art Gallery and Prairie History Room.\nIn response, Regina citizens mobilized, forming the Friends of the Regina Public Library. Leading five months of public protests and collecting more than 26,000 petition signatures, this group forced the closures to be rescinded.\nToday, the Library Board has major plans for the Central Branch. But it is refusing to be open about them. Indeed, there have been no public consultations since August 2009.\nThe Library is public property, owned by the citizens of Regina. We must be involved in any changes that are to be made to our Library.\nLIBRARY BOARD\u2019S PLAN FOR CENTRAL LIBRARY: WHAT IS IT?\nSince the Library Board continues to be secretive about its plans for Central Library, the following information has been pieced together from a variety of sources.\n1. In 2009, the Library Board announced it had commissioned the Regina firms, P3 Architecture and Harvard Developments, to conduct a feasibility study for a new Central Library.\n2. Harvard Developments approached various non-profit organizations to become partners in the project. Globe Theatre agreed.\n3. In April 2011, the Vancouver firm, Nick Milkovich Architects, put up images on its website of what a new Central Library \u201cwould look like.\u201d The drawings showed \u201ca dramatic building rising high into the sky and stretching out to cover most of the west side of the 1900 block of Lorne Street.\u201d According to the Library Board, the images had been \u201creleased prematurely\u201d (Joe Couture, \u201cNew library plan in early stages,\u201d Leader Post, April 28 2011).\n4. While the site made mention of \u201chotel and commercial space\u201d (Couture), it made no mention of space for the Dunlop Art Gallery or the RPL Film Theatre. Nor is there any reference to these facilities in the 2011 Annual Report made by the Library Board to City Council.\n5. The drawings show the new building as not only covering the land on which the Central Library now stands, but also the land immediately south of it where the Masonic Temple presently stands.\n6. The Masons are under pressure from the Library Board and Harvard Developments to sell their land. To date, the Masons have not agreed to sell.\n7. Both the Masonic Temple and the Central Library are protected within the Victoria Park Heritage Conservation District. Completed in 1926, the Masonic Temple is one of Regina\u2019s oldest buildings. Built in 1962, the Central Library is an excellent example of the City\u2019s modernist architecture.\n8. In June 2011, the Library Board submitted an application to the P3 Canada Fund. The Library has been accepted into the first phase of this funding process. The deadline for the next phase\u2013the business plan\u2013is March 31 2012.\nTHE PLAN: WHAT WE NOW KNOW\nHere\u2019s what we now know about the Library Board\u2019s plan for the Central Library. According to the plan:\nThe Central Library and the Masonic Temple, both heritage buildings, will be demolished.\nHarvard Developments will construct a large multi-use cultural-commercial facility on the land where Central Library and Masonic Temple once stood.\nHarvard will lease back some of the space to the Library and other cultural organizations. Space will also be allocated to private businesses, such as retailers, restaurants, and hotels.\nThe Library Board has not publically stated that the new Central Library will include space for the Film Theatre and Dunlop Gallery.\nThe project will be a P3 or Public Private Partnership project.\nP3s: PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS: WHAT ARE THEY?\nP3s are legally binding contracts between governments and businesses for the provision of infrastructure and services. They tend to be one-sided, favouring private profit over public interest.\nP3s transfer public property and services into private hands. As a result, there is a loss of public accountability. For example, in order to maximize profits, corporations often cut services or bring in user fees making services inaccessible for many people.\nP3s cost more. In P3 schemes, the public pays for the service and the profits that must be paid to shareholders. Moreover, P3s are financed by private borrowing which has higher interest rates than public sector rates.\nP3s mean huge profits for private firms.\nP3s may give the appearance of lower government debt levels, but they do not take debt off the books. A long-term capital lease is still a debt.\nP3s undermine democracy by reducing the capability, power, and responsibility of governments to provide and deliver services.\nSince 1912, Central Library has been public property, bought and paid for by Regina taxpayers. The transfer of this public property into private hands requires public approval.\nContact the members of the Library Board and let them know that you want the board to be open and transparent about its plans for Central Library and that you want citizen participation in the process:\nDarlene Hincks Joehnck, Chair: dhincks@reginalibrary.ca\nJeff Barber: jbarber@reginalibrary.ca\nElaine Kivisto: ekivisto@reginalibrary.ca\nDarrly Lucke: dlucke@reginalibrary.ca\nSharron Bryce: sbryce@reginalibrary.ca\nPat Fiacco: pfiacco@reginalibrary.ca\nJanet Brown: jbrown@reginalibrary.ca\nRenu Kapoor: rkapoor@reginalibrary.ca\nGerald Kleisinger: gkleisinger@reginalibrary.ca\nShelley Monson: smonson@reginalibrary.ca\nJoin the Friends of The Regina Public Library.

        "title": "Estate Planning Attorney Serving Skokie & Cook County",
        "raw_content": "Skokie, Cook County Estate Planning Attorneys\nEstate Planning Solutions Throughout Cook County\nEstate planning is the responsible way of preparing for the possible eventualities of life and the inevitability of death. While for most people it is pleasurable to contemplate retirement, it is painful to imagine future illness, disability, and dying. As with so many other uncomfortable topics, however, facing reality head-on by planning your estate with a skilled attorney can be reassuring, giving you a sense of order and control.\nAt M&A Law Firm, P.C. we are well-prepared to take you through the process of drafting a will, a power of attorney, or establishing trusts suitable to your particular needs.\nWhy M&A Law Firm, P.C. Is Different\nUnderstanding the emotional, as well as financial and logistical, components of estate planning, our attorneys are not only efficient but sensitive and compassionate. Once you have a free consultation with a member of our team, we are certain you will be convinced that you have come to the right place to stabilize your future. We will provide you with clarity concerning the complex issues to be handled. Once you become our client, we will review your plans annually to make sure they remain current as you go through life changes, like having a child or receiving an inheritance.\nThe purpose of estate planning is to prepare for your own future and to make life less complicated and more secure for the loved ones you leave behind. Working with our competent estate planning attorneys will ensure that your legacy remains intact and that there is a smooth transmission of your worldly possessions to those you most want to protect. Because of our extensive experience in the field, we will make sure that your estate plan is well-structured and legally binding. Furthermore, we will almost certainly give you new perspectives, helping you to prepare for contingencies you hadn\u2019t even considered.\nWhile many people believe that estate planning is only for the wealthy, in reality, an estate plan is more important for those of us who have small or modest estates. Whether you own a single property or have a large estate, passing away without an estate plan can subject your loved ones to a lengthy legal process and subject your assets to creditors and harsh taxes. In such cases, the smaller the estate you\u2019re leaving, the more your family will be affected.\nA will, also known as a last will and testament, is a legal document that names your executor, who is assigned to distribute your assets as you have directed after you pass away. Wills also serve a number of other purposes. They are designed to:\nName the individuals, groups, or entities (such as charities) that will inherit your property\nName a guardian for any minor children, and an alternate guardian (in case your first choice is unable to serve)\nDescribe any particulars about how you want your funeral or memorial handled\nInclude any relevant information concerning your trusts and tax plans\nAn able attorney can help you prepare a will that will help your loved ones avoid federal taxes, although this is only necessary is your estate is very large ($5.45 million or more). A skilled estate planning attorney can also help you set up various types of trusts that may help you to avoid state estate taxes and deal with several other familial issues. The state tax in Illinois, however, like the federal tax, only applies to very large estates, in this case those valued at more than $4 million.\nYour attorney will assist you in avoiding probate, a court-supervised legal procedure that is sometimes required after an individual dies. While the purpose of probate is to clarify who inherits the decedent\u2019s property and to make sure the decedent\u2019s debts and taxes are paid, probate can frequently be avoided by the creation of revocable living trusts. The reason you want to avoid probate is that it is a costly and time-consuming procedure that may be burdensome to those you leave behind.\nSpecifics of Estate Planning in Illinois\nIt is crucial to have an estate planning attorney who is familiar with laws particular to the state in which you reside, since such legislation varies from state to state. In Illinois, it is necessary to prepare several estate planning documents in addition to a will. These include: a durable power of attorney for financial matters, an Illinois power of attorney for healthcare, and a living will (known as a \u201cdeclaration\u201d in Illinois) to specify end-of-life wishes. These documents are invaluable if you undergo a health crisis, because they give decision-making power to people you trust with your financial and physical well-being and to whom you have made your desires known.\nAccording to Illinois law, the person you name as your agent need not be an attorney, but must be considered trustworthy and intelligent enough to understand the full-range of your financial affairs. It is also important that this person be local to the vicinity in which you reside so he or she can meet face-to-face with others involved with your business, assets, and investments.\nIt is always considered wise to name an alternate for the position of agent in case your first choice is unavailable when needed. In many cases, individuals choose their spouses as agents, unaware that, if they do so, in Illinois the designation terminates if the couple divorces.\nWhen you designate a healthcare proxy, you name the person you have chosen to make medical decisions on your behalf when and if you become unable to do so. Our attorneys can help you to formulate such a document.\nThe 1996 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) prohibits release of medical information even to those to whom you have given healthcare power of attorney. For this reason, you have to sign a HIPAA release form to enable your loved ones to have access to information about your health toward the end of your life.\nIf you have a business as part of your estate and want it to survive even when you can no longer manage it, you have to prepare for your potential illness, disability, retirement, or death. Whether you own a small business or head a large corporation, M&A Law Firm, P.C. can help you establish a well-constructed business succession plan. Advantages to having a workable succession plan include:\nGuaranteeing that the succession you desire will take place\nPreventing relatives or shareholders from automatically inheriting your business\nHaving shares of your business divided as you see fit\nEnsuring that your methods of management and goals for the company continue\nMaking sure of uninterrupted cash flow\nEnsuring that all necessary taxes are paid\nYou have worked hard to develop a business that will grow and thrive. Establishing a sustainable business succession plan is a significant aspect of your estate planning. M&A Law Firm, P.C. is committed to assisting you in keeping your legacy alive.\nLiving Will or Declaration\nA Living Will is a document in which you declare which procedures you want or don\u2019t want when you are at the end of your life. In Illinois, if you have been diagnosed by a physician with a terminal illness, you can both describe your healthcare wishes in a living will, and give healthcare power of attorney to someone you trust to speak for you when you are unable to speak for yourself.\nOther Illinois Estate Planning Laws\nSome other particulars concerning estate planning in the state of Illinois include certain restrictions on who can serve as your executor. Also, as of January 2015, Illinois has a new law that restricts gifts to caregivers who are non-relatives. This piece of legislation is intended to keep caregivers from taking advantage of individuals who depend on them by cajoling or coercing patients into leaving them substantial assets in their wills. If you legitimately want to leave a gift to a caregiver who is not related to you, you should make this clear to your attorney before proceeding.\nIt is helpful to be aware of some of the other aspects of Illinois law that may differ from those of other states, such as:\n[1] In Illinois, disabled individuals are entitled to have ABLE accounts, savings accounts for\npeople with disabilities. These accounts permit them to save money without jeopardizing\ntheir disability benefits (SSI or SSDI).\n[2] Illinois is one of the few states that restricts home funerals. In this state, it is required that a\nlicensed funeral director be involved in final arrangements.\n[3] In addition to burial and cremation, Illinois is one of the first states to offer another option to\ndispose of human remains: alkaline hydrolysis. Also known as biocremation, this method is\nmore eco-friendly than cremation, producing less carbon dioxide and fewer pollutants.\n[4] Illinois has a form called POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment) which,\nthough not a substitute for a durable power of attorney for healthcare, describes your\nwishes for healthcare in case of a medical emergency.\nIntestate means dying without a will. In Illinois, as in most states, if you die intestate your assets will go to your closest relatives as determined by the \u201cintestate succession\u201d laws of the state. The succession laws of the state may not coincide with your personal wishes, however, which is one more reason to prepare a will early in life.\nThe Benefits of Establishing Trusts\nAlthough many people think of the reason for creating trusts to be the advantage of decreasing tax liability, there are several other reasons for establishing trusts. One is that a trust provides a monetary benefit to an heir, without giving that heir a large sum all at once. This may not only be desirable, but necessary, if the heir is a minor, has special needs, or is known to be irresponsible with money.\nWhile many people think of trusts as tools for the wealthy, sometimes trusts are even more important for those with fewer assets since trusts can ensure that your loved ones are protected from those who may infringe on their rights or from their own reckless spending. At M&A Law Firm, P.C., our attorneys are adept at setting up a wide range of trust options, such as:\nBy setting up a trust for a beneficiary who is a minor, you create support for children or grandchildren who will need money as they grow -- for education, medical expenses, and special interests (e.g. science, sports, arts, technological pursuits) you deem worthy. In some cases, you may want to establish trusts as incentives for young heirs. You may want to encourage them, for example, to attain a certain level of education or to accomplish a particular goal in order for them to gain access to their inheritance.\nIn many cases, individuals with special needs, whether physical or mental, are entitled to receive government benefits. For any disabled members of your family it is advantageous to live in Illinois. Because of the ABLE program in this state, these individuals are permitted to keep substantial savings accounts in their names without losing their benefits. This is by no means true throughout the country. Nonetheless, there is a limit to the amount allowed to be held in ABLE account ($100,000), so if you are leaving a disabled heir part of a large estate you may still want to set up a special needs trust to protect your disabled beneficiary.\nMarital trusts are often used in situations involving second marriages. Such trusts are designed to avoid taxes and protect property. By creating a marital trust, you ensure that money left to your current spouse will go back to the children of your first marriage after the current spouse dies.\nLiving trusts have several purposes. They are created to avoid probate, protect privacy (since wills are public documents), protect assets from creditors, and reduce estate taxes imposed by the state.\nIrrevocable life insurance trusts provide other benefits. They can protect your assets from \u201cspend downs\u201d in order for you to receive long-term care benefits as you age and to prevent your life insurance benefits from being taxed.\nFor most people, pets are part of the family and the thought of leaving beloved pets untended when their owners die is heartbreaking. Pet trust laws vary from state to state, but Illinois enacted a statute a few years ago explicitly providing for the establishment of pet trusts. When you create a pet trust, you leave assets for the benefit of your pet to be managed by a designated trustee. Our attorneys advise that the trustee be someone other than the caretaker and that an alternate trustee and/or caretaker be named in the document. In many documents of this type, some compensation is also allocated to the pet\u2019s caretaker, to the trustee, or to both.\nAt M&A Law Firm, P.C., estate planning is a vital part of the legal services we provide. When we work with you, we focus intensely on your individual needs and concerns. Putting a plan in place that protects your assets, your legacy, and your loved ones is our highest priority. It is never too early to begin thinking of the future of yourself and your family.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: One of a Kind Show\nIt\u2019s Finally Friday\n\u2026.it seemed like the longest week ever\nI\u2019m sure that the full moon had a lot to do with it. The students were unusually chatty and restless. For the first time it was a struggle to get them to finish their work. Our mayor was found guilty in a conflict of interest case by the courts and stripped of his position. The teachers\u2019 union made work to rule official and is threatening rotating one day strikes across the province. The minister of education is trying to convince the media that the government is putting students first and that the teachers are bargaining in bad faith. City council was caught in the middle of a shouting match between the mayor, with the aid of his brother and a few councillors on issues that turned out to be non-issues. A crazy week, all in all.\nSo if the mayor\u2019s appeal is denied we might be looking at a by-election and the same judge that found the mayor guilty clarified today that he could run again in the by-election. He\u2019s convinced that he would win again but I\u2019m not so sure and the polls aren\u2019t in his favour at the moment.\nI had my fitness test this week and signed up for 24 sessions with a personal trainer and then the next day I found out we are be in a strike position and could be walking the pavement. Yesterday I cancelled the sessions with the personal trainer until things are a little more settled at work.\nLast Friday I discovered I have mice in my library office. They\u2019re living under the sink and have been chewing through my paint mixing containers. All week I\u2019ve been throwing away containers that have big holes in the bottom. I haven\u2019t seen them but there\u2019s lots of evidence that they\u2019re around.\nI started to mark some of the art projects. I have to use my time more wisely because as of December 10th we have to leave school 1/2 hour after the students leave. This will be a challenge for me and a few other teachers who regularly stay at school till 6:00 most days. After the 10th, no more field trips, sports teams, extracurricular activities, and anything that involves collecting money and administrative paperwork. I marked about 100 projects tonight. Only 320 to go.\nArt classes will continue but displaying the work could prove challenging when I have to leave the building early every night. Some of the work may have to stay up longer than it would normally. Here\u2019s what the halls look like at the moment.\nNot everything was bad. At the school council meeting this week the parents put my new art cart on the top of the priority list of things to purchase. It was ordered the next day and arrived yesterday. It only has to be assembled.\nOn Thursday I went to the One of a Kind Show with my daughter and her partner. They made me a great dinner. I had a free pass into the show and parking was free (that\u2019s never happened before).\nThe weekend looks promising. I\u2019ll start the day with a walk with the dog, workout at the gym and then to an art show opening in the afternoon. My friend\u2019s 91 year old father is exhibiting his work at the Moore Gallery in downtown Toronto. He is a very accomplished artist and has had many shows in his lifetime. Just a month ago he won another award for one of his pieces at the Watercolour Society.\nOn Sunday we may be taking a trip to the Niagara region and do some wine touring. This is what my daughter wanted for her birthday and it looks like it should be a nice day weather wise. With Christmas just around the corner and winter on our heels we need to make this trip sooner rather than later.\nWe had a dusting of snow today in the afternoon. By 4:15 it was already dark, partially due to the overcast sky. Of course for the next 21 days it will continue to get darker earlier in the day. How depressing but I can\u2019t let the stress get to me.\nPosted in About Me, Art Gallery, Children's Art, Fitness, Photography, Teaching, Weight Loss\t| Tagged art presentations, challenges, children's art, full moon, Mayor Ford, mice infestation, One of a Kind Show, paintings, photography, political climate, shorter days, stress, strike, Toronto, walking, weekends, work to rule\t| 2 Replies",

        "raw_content": "July 29, 2010 \u221ehttps://marco.org/2010/07/29/the-kindle-update\nYesterday, Amazon announced a new Kindle, similar in design to the new DX and just $140/$190 for WiFi-only and 3G models, respectively.\nNaturally, the tech press is already declaring it \u201cdead\u201d, because the tech press loves product \u201ckillers\u201d and other perceptions to completely rule out entire classes of products because they lack the empathy or worldview to recognize these products\u2019 markets.\nDave Winer says:\nWhen I read on tech blogs that Kindle is a goner, I think these people must not read very much.\nI love the Kindle. The iPad didn\u2019t \u201ckill\u201d it. Amazon is going to sell a ton of these, especially at this new price point.\nReading on the iPad is a bit of a kludge. You can read on it, and it\u2019s a lot better than reading on a computer, but it\u2019s still too reflective, heavy, bright, and power-hungry compared to the Kindle.\nPeople often assume that the iPad\u2019s backlit LCD screen is an advantage over the Kindle because it doesn\u2019t need a separate light to be read at night. But the Kindle\u2019s e-ink screen is actually more versatile for different lighting: not only does it work in bright sunlight just as well as paper, but I find it easier to read a Kindle at night with a small lamp on than with an iPad in the dark, even using dark mode and low brightness. And I often can\u2019t use those same nightstand or headboard-clip lamps with the iPad to light the area less harshly because the iPad\u2019s screen is too reflective. The iPad is also too heavy to comfortably hold in most ways for long periods, and its wide range of software capabilities can be distracting. When you\u2019re holding a Kindle, all you can do is read. When I read on an iPad, I always want to go check my email. And my feeds. And Tumblr. And Twitter. Just for a minute.\nThe iPad is a great casual computer, but the Kindle is the superior reading device.1 And there doesn\u2019t need to be any \u201ckilling\u201d. If you really like an iPad for its other uses, now that a Kindle\u2019s entry price is $140, it\u2019s perfectly reasonable to have both.\nTiff and I are taking our first backpacking trip in a few weeks. We\u2019ll presumably have no access to AC power for 6 days, and we\u2019ll likely regret carrying anything heavy or unnecessary. But we\u2019ll have times at camp in which it will be nice to be able to entertain ourselves.\nI\u2019m not bringing the iPad. I\u2019m certainly not bringing a laptop. I\u2019ll have my iPhone for emergencies, but powered off to conserve its battery. I\u2019m bringing the S90, not the 5D Mark II.\nAnd I\u2019m bringing a Kindle, loaded up with books and Instapaper compilations, in a Ziplock bag for waterproofing. No case, no charger, no extra batteries. Total weight: 10 ounces. (I\u2019ll be carrying more coffee than that.) If it breaks, it\u2019s a lot cheaper to replace than an iPad. Its battery will outlast the trip, even with heavy use. It holds so much text that I\u2019ll always have a great selection and more than enough supply. And I\u2019m simply bringing a few extra sets of AAA batteries (2 oz.) for my headlamp to light it at night if needed.\nGizmodo and the like probably don\u2019t care that the Kindle is the perfect device for so many uses like this that people encounter on a regular basis in Real Life. But Kindle owners, and Amazon, don\u2019t need them to.\nThe iPad is better for certain content types, such as anything that requires color, images, tables, formulas, sound, or video. But when most people think of \u201creading\u201d, they\u2019re thinking of traditional text-only books and occasional magazines and newspapers. With these, the Kindle is by far the best reading device. \u21a9\ufe0e",

        "raw_content": "Three Years of Coopnasty\nJuly 24, 2014 June 22, 2016 / acooper0505\nI had originally intended to write a post detailing my funniest experiences during my 7 years in staffing in honor of getting a new job, but humor will have to wait. Instead, I decided to blog about my sappy how-I-met-my-husband story because today marks 3 years love, bickering, and laughter with Mr. Cooper!\nWhere do I begin? You should probably get the back story leading up to the night we met just to get the full picture, so bear with me. For 4 years, I was in a relationship with a controlling, jealous, jerk who liked to grab my wrists when we argued. By no means was I the perfect girlfriend, I was 16, hormonal, and crazy to be completely honest, but I grew out of it\u2026 he didn\u2019t. Anyway, I had put together this plan that I was either going to take a year off from school, become a flight attendant and travel, or I was going to end up going insane staying with my bad-for-me boyfriend in the middle of nowhere. I had also made my best efforts to get myself in order for a transfer to the university my closest friends attended. I knew exactly what I was doing, where I was going, and I was 100% set on being single for a very long time. Because of my parents\u2019 messy divorce and the traumatic experience of dating him, I didn\u2019t even think I wanted to get married EVER at that point, and I certainly didn\u2019t want to marry him. So I broke it off and I was spending a lot more time with my best friend since 1996, Tank (I call her this because autocorrect changes Tabi to Tank every chance it gets).\nIn honor of Tank\u2019s birthday (which was yesterday), we had planned on grilling out and going to the movies for a girl\u2019s night. At the very last minute, Tank decided that she\u2019d rather go listen to her fiance play music in a local bar despite neither of us being old enough to get into the place without accompanying the band. Her fiance and I chit-chatted while she was getting ready, during which time he scrolled through his Facebook friend\u2019s list and pointed out all of his single friends before trying to sell them to me like a used car. \u201cAustin, I don\u2019t want or need a boyfriend. I don\u2019t do casual dating, and there\u2019s no point in trying to find someone new when I\u2019m not even going to be on this side of the state this time next year,\u201d I explained to him.\nWe arrived to the bar shortly after his unsuccessful attempts to pawn me off on his buddies and we were easily the youngest people in the place. This is the kind of joint that mostly attract middle aged men and senior citizens who were in search of cheap beer and a decent cover band. They were all old enough to be my parents (including a lady with too much mousse in her hair which nearly caught on fire when someone waved a Marlboro too close to her noggin\u2026 but that\u2019s a story for another day) and if not for the company of my dearest Tank, I would\u2019ve been miserable. And then I noticed a familiar silhouette in the doorway.\nHere\u2019s the irony in all of this, folks. Mr. Cooper and I had attended high school together. I only knew of him from those years because he dated a girl in most of my classes, and they argued by the girls bathroom every morning. He had also worked for the staffing agency where I worked in the office the year before. I could not remember his name to save my soul, however, and proceeded to gawk at him the rest of the night until he FINALLY asked me to dance on the very last song.\nKeep in mind, neither of us are dancers. I stepped on his feet, he stepped on mine and tried to convince me it was because he was drunk\u2026 even though he\u2019d only had one beer the entire night. At the end of it all, he asked for my phone number, text me the next day, and the rest is history.\nIf you know me at all, you know how much of a control freak I am. My plans were ruined because I was immediately smitten. I am not a flight attendant, nor did I transfer across the state. I didn\u2019t take a year off, I graduated on time, and I\u2019m married! He ruined my life in the best way. As a matter of fact, Mr. Cooper pretended to fling a bug on me while I tried to type this thing, laughing all the while at the sheer terror on my face. Here\u2019s to 50+ more years!\nanniversary, humor, life, love\n\u2190 Dumb is NEVER Cute\nLife After Loss \u2192",

        "title": "Welfare State | Christian in America",
        "raw_content": "Avoiding \u201cconservative\u201d radicalism: Walter Russell Mead on the Blue Social Model\nIf you are interested in the future of the American welfare state and American democracy \u2013 i.e., if you want to think carefully about the future of life in this country \u2013 Walter Russell Mead\u2019s writing on the decline of the blue model is a must read. As he reports on Via Meadia,\nThe \u201cdeath of blue\u201d theme has gotten a lot of attention. Hundreds of thousands of readers have come to these posts, and they\u2019ve been discussed widely in the blogosphere and in print.\nMead\u2019s prose is clear, readable, and gets to the point. More importantly, it represents a broadly conservative, yet helpfully pragmatic perspective on American society, its changing institutions and its evolving possibilities, that provides conservatives with a genuine alternative to utopian attitudes of libertarianism or reconstructionism. And it is now carefully summarized at the American Interest in one well-written summary article. Read it.\nMead argues that what he calls America\u2019s \u201cblue social model\u201d is dying, by which he means that\nthe characteristic form of 20th century industrial democracy has come unglued, and that the advanced industrial democracies around the world must adjust to basic changes in the way the world works\u2026.\nBriefly, the idea is that after World War II America was organized around a group of heavily regulated monopoly and semi-monopoly companies. AT&T was the only telephone company; there were three big networks, three big car companies and so on. There was very little foreign competition, and these companies were able to offer stable, lifetime employment to most of their workers. The workforce was heavily unionized, and the earnings of the big companies were divided between shareholders, managers, workers and government in a predictable way. An intellectual and administrative class of planners, social scientists and managers ran the big institutions and administered the government.\nSeveral forces came together to break up this system. Foreign competition, first from rebuilding Germany and Japan after World War II and then from low wage newly industrializing countries around the world, eroded the market position of companies like the Big Three auto manufacturers. The rise of offshore banking eroded the tight financial controls of the postwar era. Growing consumer impatience with the high prices and poor quality offered by monopoly companies like the telephone monopoly led to political pressure to deregulate and introduce more competition. Technological change, especially in information processing and communications, led to disruptive changes that shifted the advantage to nimble and lean companies and left the bureaucratic, slow moving giants of the Blue Age behind. American society became increasingly individualistic, with both the left and the right rebelling against the authority of experts and bureaucrats.\nUnlike many in America today, whether on the right or the left, Mead is not pessimistic about America\u2019s future. The United States, he argues consistently, maintains solid economic, political, social, military, and environmental advantages over other countries. Yet the land of the pilgrims and pioneers needs to figure out how to adjust its institutions and policies \u2013 as we always have in the past \u2013 corresponding to a rapidly evolving world, yet in a manner faithful to American ideals.\nWhat future does Mead propose?\nThe first thing to say about a post-blue social model is that it will be liberal. That is to say it will be a further exercise the development of the concept of \u201cordered liberty\u201d that has been the guiding light of Anglo-American civilization since the Glorious Revolution of 1688. The synthesis of enlightened, forward looking governance resting on the acknowledged and inalienable liberties of the people at the heart of the liberal vision remains the best foundation humanity has yet found for running a society in a world of rapid change.\nAt the heart of the enduring liberal ideal is a truth that is often forgotten in today\u2019s political debates: the relationship between order and liberty does not have to be zero sum. More government can mean less freedom, and more freedom can mean less government\u2014but things don\u2019t always work out that way\u2026.\nThe secret of Anglo-American civilization has been its ability to combine the two elements of order and liberty at successively higher levels of both. To think constructively about our future we shouldn\u2019t be thinking about a zero sum tradeoff between order and freedom; we should be thinking about how to build the kind of order that extends our liberty in new and important ways.\nMead\u2019s take on the liberal project is profoundly conservative. In a time when some conservatives, including Christian conservatives, are becoming increasingly jaded with the idea of liberal democracy, his perspective reminds us that genuine conservatism is respectful both of the past and of the present. It gives the benefit of the doubt to the social order as it exists \u2013 the legacy of the past \u2013 while calling for necessary changes that are gradual, that are morally, economically, and politically appropriate, and that do not disrupt the legitimate social fabric. This is in sharp contrast to the sorts of \u201cconservatism\u201d that owe more to the legacy of revolutionary radicalism, whether in their libertarian dreams of dismantling American government or in their theocratic hopes of turning America into the kingdom of God.\nIf you haven\u2019t done so, go read Mead\u2019s essay.\nPosted in Conservatism, Liberalism, Libertarianism, Reconstructionism, Welfare State\nComments Off on Avoiding \u201cconservative\u201d radicalism: Walter Russell Mead on the Blue Social Model\nTags: blue social model, Via Meadia, Walter Russell Mead\nSpoiling your children, and the decline of civil society\nIt turns out that spoiling kids, as our grandmothers told us, is actually bad for them. It\u2019s also bad for civil society. It\u2019s one thing financially to assist your children as they move through the stages of life, all the while training them in their work ethic, responsibility, and healthy ambition. It\u2019s a whole other thing to teach them that they are the center of the world, the deserving beneficiaries of their parents (and their society\u2019s) largesse.\nHere are two bits of evidence (HT: Via Meadia). First, researchers have reported in Science that China\u2019s one child policy has not been good for the character of the country\u2019s youth.\nWe document that China\u2019s One-Child Policy, one of the most radical approaches to limiting population growth, has produced significantly less trusting, less trustworthy, more risk-averse, less competitive, more pessimistic, and less conscientious individuals.\nWalter Russell Mead writes,\nIt\u2019s been pointed out many times before that the ranks of only children are large and growing, and that they are outnumbered by, and thus hard pressed to care for, parents and grandparents. Now we find that they are also less inclined to follow the Confucian tradition\u2019s dictates of respect and responsibility for one\u2019s elders. Indeed, this is why the leadership has already enacted laws forcing selfish children to visit their parents regularly or face legal consequences.\nThe Second bit of evidence? The New York Times reports that students whose parents pay for their college education perform much less well academically.\nDr. [Laura] Hamilton suggested that students who get a blank check from their parents may not take their education as seriously as others.\n\u201cOddly, a lot of the parents who contributed the most money didn\u2019t get the best returns on their investment,\u201d she said. \u201cTheir students were more likely to stay and graduate, but their G.P.A.\u2019s were mediocre at best, and some I didn\u2019t see study even once. I wondered if that was nationally true, which led me to this quantitative study, which found that it is.\u201d\nAgain, Mead comments,\nIt\u2019s hardly a surprise that 18-year-olds will take advantage of a fully subsidized four-year adventure through parties, booze, and whatever other joys college brings. Keeping young people in a bubble where they don\u2019t have to work for their own money (and by work we don\u2019t mean cushy internships) is a form of child abuse, depriving kids of the character and capability-building experiences they need to become responsible and effective adults.\nOf course, by analogy we might draw some national and social implications from this. I\u2019ll leave that to you wise readers.\nPosted in Children, Education, Welfare State\nComments Off on Spoiling your children, and the decline of civil society\nTags: China, college, one-child policy, Walter Russell Mead\nConservative special pleading on taxes: charitable giving\nI don\u2019t know whether or not we\u2019ll be diving over the fiscal \u201ccliff\u201d in the next few days, but one of the discussions that has intrigued me in recent weeks has been the debate over whether or not Congress should preserve the tax deduction for charitable giving. This deduction will expire should Congress do nothing during the next four days, and it could also expire or, more likely, be modified, if Congress does take action.\nConservatives and Republicans love to claim that their policies are more fiscally responsible than are those of the liberals and the Democrats. Conservatives want to reign in spending to reflect tax revenue, they point out, while the Democrats are committed to the unsustainable welfare state. Liberals, on the other hand, note that the Republicans talk the talk but never actually make the hard decisions to cut spending. What recent Republican administration ever maintained a balanced budget?\nPart of the problem, of course, is that while virtually everyone agrees that the federal deficit has to be reduced, no one wants to see their own pet projects abandoned. We can all outline a series of programs and initiatives that we think should be jettisoned, but there is no shortage of organizations and lobby groups to explain to us why such reductions in spending would be detrimental to the country. Similarly, when others outline their lists, we are ready with our defense of our own favorite policies.\nThus we have the phenomena of staunch conservatives attacking President Obama and the Democrats for refusing to make hard decisions when it comes to spending cuts, while at the same time adamantly insisting that the deduction for charitable giving has to be maintained. So for instance, Richard Land, outgoing president of the Southern Baptist Convention\u2019s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, claims that the expiration of the deduction is a \u201cdraconian threat to the religious and non-religious charities they [Americans] cherish.\u201d\nLand\u2019s concern is about a measure not aimed at charitable deductions per se, but simply attempting to limit the amount of deductions claimable by high earners. In fact, he insists, \u201cBy all means we should reduce tax loop holes and extravagant personal deductions.\u201d\nBut not this loop hole and not this deduction.\nAt a time of a seemingly ever-expanding, but financially strapped, federal government, why would that government seek to weaken and eviscerate the civil society nonprofits so necessary to act as a gentle buffer between government and individual citizens in need?\nThe proposal to further cap charitable deductions in the federal tax code is a threat aimed like a dagger at the heart of America\u2019s charitable nonprofit entities, secular and religious. It will weaken most, kill many, and harm all.\nLand tends to give in to temptations to escalate his rhetoric in situations like these (he claimed a few months ago that the 2012 election was the most significant in his lifetime). The Christian Examiner reports,\nThe idea of capping the charitable deduction \u201cis as serious a threat to religious organizations as anything the federal government has done in recent decades,\u201d said Richard Land, president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC).\nAs serious as anything? Even the contraception mandate? Even the attempt by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to curtail the \u201cministerial exception\u201d?\nI agree with Land that government needs to foster and protect a strong civil society. I\u2019m not convinced that the survival of such civil society depends on selective treatment from a federal government reeling from its inability to say no to special interests. It is simply not enough to make a good argument that federal support for a particular program or tax break benefits the country and is financially beneficial in the long run. Such arguments can be made about virtually every program or policy. If we have any hope of establishing a just, simple tax code, however, such arguments need to be resisted. Conservatives need to be as ruthless with their own favorite policies as they are with those of the left. They certainly don\u2019t need to be playing the religion card.\nIn the Washington Post Ken Stern questions the degree to which the tax deduction is an incentive to charitable giving,\nPeople with income in the lowest quintile give a higher percentage of their earnings to charity than do more wealthy Americans. This pattern persists despite the fact that low earners have less disposable income and rarely take advantage of itemized tax deductions for charitable donations. Sure, some contributions are tax-driven: Almost a quarter of online giving occurs in the last two days of the year as taxpayers rush to qualify for deductions. But Americans\u2019 generosity may be more resistant to changes in the tax laws than most people think.\nOf course, Stern may be being unduly optimistic here. But in my view it is somewhat irrelevant. Even assuming giving should drop off somewhat, are charitable and religious organizations really as threatened as Land claims? I doubt it. If they have really become so dependent on favorable federal tax policies then the fault is their own for ignoring Rule #1 when it comes to maintaining liberty from government interference: He who controls the purse strings makes the rules \u2026\nPosted in Religious Liberty, Richard Land, Taxes, Welfare State\nComments Off on Conservative special pleading on taxes: charitable giving\nTags: charitable deductions, charitable giving, fiscal cliff, Ken Stern, tax break\nWho is to blame for the unsustainable expansion of America\u2019s welfare state? \u2013 a look at food stamps\nAmid all the talk about whether or not President Obama won reelection on the votes of people who simply want handouts from the federal government it is worth paying attention to how America\u2019s safety net actually works. In a fascinating report at National Affairs David J. Armor and Sonia Sousa provide an analysis of just how relief gets to the poor (and not-so-poor) and how it has grown in the past few years. In this post I want to focus in particular on what they say about food aid programs. The major programs in view here are the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP (formerly known as food stamps) ($68 billion in 2010), the school lunch and breakfast program ($14 billion) and the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program ($6.7 billion).\nThe baseline point to note is that food aid programs have in fact dramatically grown under President Obama. Armor and Sousa write:\nBetween 1992 and 2007, spending on food programs did not vary by more than a few billion dollars, after adjusting for inflation. But according to the Congressional Budget Office, spending on food programs rose from $57 billion in 2007 to $95 billion in 2010 (again, adjusted for inflation), an utterly unprecedented increase of 66%\u2026.\nBetween 2000 and 2010, the number of persons receiving food stamps more than doubled, increasing from 17 million to slightly more than 40 million. Real spending more than tripled during this period, rising from $22 billion to $68 billion.\nMap: Percentage of People in each county who receive food stamps, June 2009\nWhat are the reasons for the expansion? Obviously the recession has been a big part of it, but the growth of food aid programs outpaces the growth in the number of persons receiving food aid. The main reason for this is President Obama\u2019s 2009 stimulus program, which purposely sought to increase the benefits received per person.\nThe expansion of the number of people receiving food aid also owes to factors other than simply the recession.\nDuring the recession of the early 1990s, enrollment increased by several million\u2005\u2014\u2005understandably, given that the poverty rate rose to 15%, roughly the same as the rate in this most recent recession. But between 2003 and 2007, when the economy was strong and poverty rates were relatively modest, SNAP enrollment nevertheless climbed to 26 million people. And after 2007, enrollment figures skyrocketed\u2005\u2014\u2005climbing to 33 million people in 2009 and to 40 million in 2010.\nNote that enrollment was climbing significantly already during the Bush administration, although the climb became steeper after 2007 owing to the recession. In part we might say that this latter climb simply demonstrates that the program is working. In hard times more poor people are receiving help.\nYet here\u2019s the rub. Much of the increase in food aid programs reflects financial support that is not going to the poor. \u201cMost of the increases in food-stamp participation in the past several years have instead resulted from an increase in benefits going to people above the poverty line\u201d (emphasis added).\nAs early as 2004, nearly 40% of households receiving food stamps were above the poverty line\u2026 [I]n 2010 it reached 48%\u2005\u2014\u2005nearly half of all households receiving food stamps. The increase in the number of households participating in the food-stamp program is thus being driven disproportionately by households above the poverty line.\nConsidered in terms of individuals more than half of all food aid recipients are above the poverty line. Most people who receive federal aid are not poor according to the government\u2019s standard of poverty.\nJust as striking is that most of the people above the poverty line who are receiving aid are well above the poverty line: \u201cAnother 7.2 million recipients have incomes between 130% and 200% of the poverty level, and an astonishing 8 million recipients have incomes that are greater than 200% of poverty.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s going on here? In significant part it has to do with the relaxation of \u201ccategorical eligibility\u201d rules under the Obama administration. \u201cCategorical eligibility allows states to declare large numbers of families eligible for SNAP without actually going through the SNAP program\u2019s own process for determining eligibility.\u201d\nWho are the culprits? It\u2019s not necessarily who you would think and it bears little resemblance to the map of blue states and red states. The states that provide SNAP benefits to families with incomes up to 200% of the poverty line include Montana, North Carolina, and North Dakota, as well as Maryland, Massachusetts, and Washington. States that provide benefits to families earning up to 160% of the poverty line include deep red Texas and Arizona as well as Connecticut and New Mexico. Perhaps most interesting of all is that staunchly blue New York and California hold standards much stricter than many other states, keeping the eligibility line at 130%.\nThis makes a big difference. If all states awarded food stamps to individuals up to 200% of the poverty line \u2013 which is perfectly permissible under current federal rules, no less than 94.4 million Americans, nearly a third of the nation\u2019s population, would receive food stamps from the federal government.\nThese numbers suggest that it is categorically wrong to blame the poor \u2013 or programs designed to help the poor \u2013 for America\u2019s financial problems, or even for the recent growth of the welfare state. In fact, the vast majority of federal dollars redistributed in this country go to segments of the population above the poverty line and even to the middle class, including in particular seniors and veterans.\nRepublicans should abandon rhetoric critical of the safety net, or of programs designed to help the poor like Medicaid and focus instead on reforming these programs so that they actually help the people they were established to help. Too often Republicans are willing to criticize redistributive programs that benefit typical Democratic constituencies (think of Romney\u2019s 47% comments) but not to criticize those programs that benefit their own favored constituencies (i.e., seniors). This suggests to many people \u2013 rightly or wrongly \u2013 that they don\u2019t care about the poor. It also suggests that Republicans know how to be Santa Claus just as much as do the Democrats. The divide here is not as much about principle as many conservatives would like to imagine.\nDemocrats, for their part, need to ask themselves whether they really want America to be a country in which a third of the population is on food stamps. They also need to come to grips with the fact that raising taxes on the rich is not going to put America back on the path to welfare state sustainability. It\u2019s all fine and good to talk about helping the poor and needy, but when it comes down to it it will be the benefits the federal government gives to the middle class that will wreck this country\u2019s budget. It\u2019s time for a serious conversation about what the American welfare state is actually accomplishing.\nComments Off on Who is to blame for the unsustainable expansion of America\u2019s welfare state? \u2013 a look at food stamps\nTags: food stamps, Medicaid, Mitt Romney, school lunch, SNAP, WIC",

        "title": "Classic Rock Profiles: Introduction to Kansas \u2013 Mental Itch",
        "raw_content": "Classic Rock Profiles: Introduction to Kansas\nKansas at a glance\nKansas is the name of an American rock band, most popular and active throughout the 1970s and the 1980s. First formed in Topeka, Kansas in 1973, the group released their eponymous debut album the following year. It soon became a best seller and went gold, and Kansas were performing in sold-out concerts at the biggest venues.\nSix studio albums followed which also became commercial successes while their singles such as \u201cCarry On Wayward Son\u201d and \u201cDust In The Wind\u201d became hits. They have become staples of the album-oriented rock (AOR) radio stations even up to this day.\nIn the 1980s, the group, as they began to experience creative and personal tensions, shifted to contemporary Christian music as some of their members converted into born-again Christians. As with other many rock bands, Kansas have also undergone personnel changes since 1985 when they reunited. Kansas\u2019 music has been classified as progressive rock, hard rock, art rock and heartland rock, and their distinctive sound relies on the string section (courtesy of vocalist-violinist Robby Steindhardt).\nThe evolution of Kansas\nOriginating in the Kansas capital of Topeka, founding members guitarist/keyboardist Kerry Livgren, bassist Dave Hope, and drummer Phil Ehart started to play together while they were still in high school. In 1971, they changed their name into White Clover when they recruited violinist/vocalist Robby Steinhardt, keyboardist/vocalist Steve Walsh and guitarist Rich Williams. By the time their lineup was complete, they had reverted to their old name Kansas.\nKansas signed a deal with Kirshner Records and released their eponymous debut album in 1974; it landed at #174 on the Billboard 200 chart. The following year they released two albums: Song For America (peak position: #57) and Masque(#70), signaling better things to come for the band.\nOut of obscurity and into stardom\nIn 1976, Kansas achieved their breakthrough success with Leftoverture. Although the album received mixed reviews from critics, its commercial success was uncontested. It sold over four million copies and went multi-platinum. Most importantly, it finally pulled Kansas out of relative obscurity and into stardom. The album\u2019s single \u201cCarry on Wayward Son\u201d was just a shy away from making it into the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100.\nKansas followed Leftoverture with 1977\u2019s Point Of Know Return. The album\u2019s strongest single was \u201cDust in the Wind\u201d which reached its peak single at #6 on the Hot 100. This helped Point Of Know Return to sell over four million copies and hit the multi-platinum certification. In the wake of the success of their albums, Kansas played sold-out dates at huge venues.\nThe following year Kansas issued their first live album, the double-LP Two for the Show, which struggled on the charts, peaking only at #35. Kansas resurrected this with 1979\u2019s Monolith which broke into the Top 10 pop album territory, helped by the Top 40 single \u201cPeople of the South Wind\u201d (at #23).\nRifts, lineup changes and subsequent split\nBut by the time 1980\u2019s Audio-Visions album was released, the band members began to drift apart largely due to Livgren and Hope\u2019s conversion to born-again Christianity. Their newfound faith was manifested by their later songs, and this didn\u2019t sit well with the other members. Creative differences further severed the band members\u2019 relationship, and Walsh left in late 1981 to form his own band Streets. Kansas recruited John Elefante to fill the void left by Walsh.\nhe new version of Kansas released the album Vinyl Confessions in the summer of 1982. The new album re-generated some interest in the band, helped by the Top 20 pop hit single \u201cPlay the Game Tonight\u201d (at #17 pop, #4 rock). The following year Kansas issued Drastic Measures, and by then Steinhardt was absent in the album as he had already quit just prior to its recording. The single \u201cFight Fire with Fire\u201d didn\u2019t reach the Top 40 although it did peak at #3 on the mainstream rock charts.\nDrastic Measures was the last hurrah for much of the original lineup before they disbanded in early 1984. Livgren and Hope left to form their own band, the Christian rock outfit AD.\nRe-formation and later career\nBut only two years after the split, Kansas surfaced anew. The reformed lineup consisted of original members Ehart and Williams with newer member Walsh, together with the most recent members bassist Billy Greer and guitarst Steve Morse. The new version of Kansas released Power in the autumn of 1986. The album\u2019s single \u201cAll I Wanted\u201d just reached the Top 20, and reached its peak at #10. The same lineup also released the follow-up to Power with In the Spirit of Things before Morse left the band temporarily. He then came back in 1991 to fill in Livgren\u2019s absence in the middle of Kansas\u2019 1990-1991 reunion tour, before leaving the group for good. In 1991 violinist David Ragdale joined Kansas, and since then this lineup (Ehart, Walsh, Williams, Greer and Ragsdale) has still been intact up to this day.\nIn 1998 and 2000, Kansas released the albums Always Never the Same andSomewhere To Elsewhere, respectively. The group has continued to tour each year, with occasional appearances by Livgren, Hope and Morse.\nHelpful links to Kansas\nKansas Band 40th Anniversary\nKansas (band) \u2013 Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\nKANSAS Lyrics \u2013 A selection of 125 Kansas lyrics including Dust In The Wind, Carry On Wayward Son, What\u2019s On My Mind, The Pinnacle, Cheyenne Anthem \u2026",

        "raw_content": "The division of a marital estate in Pennsylvania can be a difficult and emotionally draining process. It may be necessary to evaluate and divide assets and debts including real estate holdings, businesses, retirement benefits and pensions. We can help you to safeguard your property by properly evaluating, valuing and dividing your marital property.\nBefore property can be divided, it must be located and identified. Pennsylvania law requires each party in a divorce matter to provide the other with complete disclosure of financial information. Fines or sanctions can punish hiding an asset or providing false or incomplete information. It may be necessary to use other discovery methods such as depositions and subpoenas to locate any hidden assets.\nOnce property is identified, it is then characterized as either marital or non-marital property. In Pennsylvania, property acquired during the marriage is deemed marital and each party will be entitled to an appropriate share. Property that is deemed non-marital is presumed to be a party\u2019s separate property and is not subject to division. The classification of property is determined by factual matters like the date of the marriage, date of separation, source of the asset and marital agreements. An argument over any of these facts may change a party\u2019s entitlements or obligations regarding and asset or debt.\nMarital property is then valued. Parties may disagree over the value of certain assets. In some cases it may be necessary to use specialists like real estate appraisers or forensic accountants to determine the value of an asset such as a house or business. Dividing certain assets may require specialized services to take advantage of tax laws and to avoid penalties.\nTypically, the determination of what constitutes \u201cmarital property\u201d becomes a critical issue in deciding an equitable distribution claim. Pursuant to Title 23, Section 3501 of the Pennsylvania Code, \u201cmarital property is defined as follows:\n(a) General rule.\u2013As used in this chapter, \u201cmarital property\u201d means all property acquired by either party during the marriage and the increase in value of any nonmarital property acquired pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (3) as measured and determined under subsection (a.1). However, marital property does not include:\n(1) Property acquired prior to marriage or property acquired in exchange for property acquired prior to the marriage.\n(2) Property excluded by valid agreement of the parties entered into before, during or after the marriage.\n(3) Property acquired by gift, except between spouses, bequest, devise or descent or property acquired in exchange for such property.\n(4) Property acquired after final separation until the date of divorce, except for property acquired in exchange for marital assets.\n(5) Property which a party has sold, granted, conveyed or otherwise disposed of in good faith and for value prior to the date of final separation.\n(6) Veterans\u2019 benefits exempt from attachment, levy or seizure pursuant to the act of September 2, 1958 (Public Law 85-857, 72 Stat. 1229), as amended, except for those benefits received by a veteran where the veteran has waived a portion of his military retirement pay in order to receive veterans\u2019 compensation.\n(7) Property to the extent to which the property has been mortgaged or otherwise encumbered in good faith for value prior to the date of final separation.\n(8) Any payment received as a result of an award or settlement for any cause of action or claim which accrued prior to the marriage or after the date of final separation regardless of when the payment was received.\n(a.1) Measuring and determining the increase in value of nonmarital property.\u2013The increase in value of any nonmarital property acquired pursuant to subsection (a)(1) and (3) shall be measured from the date of marriage or later acquisition date to either the date of final separation or the date as close to the hearing on equitable distribution as possible, whichever date results in a lesser increase. Any decrease in value of the nonmarital property of a party shall be offset against any increase in value of the nonmarital property of that party. However, a decrease in value of the nonmarital property of a party shall not be offset against any increase in value of the nonmarital property of the other party or against any other marital property subject to equitable division.\n(b) Presumption.\u2013All real or personal property acquired by either party during the marriage is presumed to be marital property regardless of whether title is held individually or by the parties in some form of co-ownership such as joint tenancy, tenancy in common or tenancy by the entirety. The presumption of marital property is overcome by a showing that the property was\nacquired by a method listed in subsection (a).\n(c) Defined benefit retirement plans.\u2013Notwithstanding subsections (a), (a.1) and (b):\n(1) In the case of the marital portion of a defined benefit retirement plan being distributed by means of a deferred distribution, the defined benefit plan shall be allocated between its marital and nonmarital portions solely by use of a coverture fraction. The denominator of the coverture fraction shall be the number of months the employee spouse worked to earn the total benefit and the numerator shall be the number of such months during which the parties were married and not finally separated. The benefit to which the coverture fraction is applied shall include all postseparation enhancements except for enhancements arising from postseparation monetary contributions made by the employee spouse, including the gain or loss on such contributions.\n(2) In the case of the marital portion of a defined benefit retirement plan being distributed by means of an immediate offset, the defined benefit plan shall be allocated between its marital and nonmarital portions solely by use of a coverture fraction. The denominator of the coverture fraction shall be the number of months the employee spouse worked to earn the accrued benefit as of a date as close to the time of trial as reasonably possible and the numerator shall be the number of such months during which the parties were married and not finally separated. The benefit to which the coverture fraction is applied shall include all postseparation enhancements up to a date as close to the time of trial as reasonably possible except for enhancements arising from postseparation monetary contributions made by the employee spouse, including the gain or loss on such contributions.\n(Nov. 29, 2004, P.L.1357, No.175, eff. 60 days)\n2004 Amendment. Act 175 amended subsec. (a) and added subsecs. (a.1) and (c). See section 5(6) of Act 175 in the appendix to this title for special provisions relating to applicability.\nEquitable Distribution Proceedings. Section 1 of Act 4 of 2005 provided that subsec. (c) shall apply to all equitable distribution proceedings pending on or after the effective date of section 1.\nAfter determining the marital property, the Court will decide how to fairly divide the assets between the parties. Pursuant to Title 23, Section 3502, the following factors are typically considered.\n3502. Equitable division of marital property.\n(a) General rule.\u2013 Upon the request of either party in an action for divorce or annulment, the court shall equitably divide, distribute or assign, in kind or otherwise, the marital property between the parties without regard to marital misconduct in such percentages and in such manner as the court deems just after considering all relevant factors. The court may consider each marital asset or group of assets independently and apply a different percentage to each marital asset or group of assets. Factors which are relevant to the equitable division of marital property include the following:\n(7) The contribution or dissipation of each party in the acquisition, preservation, depreciation or appreciation of the marital property, including the contribution of a party as homemaker.\n(10.1) The Federal, State and local tax ramifications associated with each asset to be divided, distributed or assigned, which ramifications need not be immediate and certain.\n(b) Lien.\u2013The court may impose a lien or charge upon property of a party as security for the payment of alimony or any other award for the other party.\n(c) Family home.\u2013The court may award, during the pendency of the action or otherwise, to one or both of the parties the right to reside in the marital residence.\n(d) Life insurance.\u2013The court may direct the continued maintenance and beneficiary designations of existing policies insuring the life or health of either party which were originally purchased during the marriage and owned by or within the effective control of either party. Where it is necessary to protect the interests of a party, the court may also direct the purchase of, and beneficiary designations on, a policy insuring the life or health of either party.\nMiller Lyden attorneys are experienced trial attorneys that can assist and in preparing and presenting your equitable distribution claim before a family law judge.",

        "raw_content": "The Decisions You Need to Make Now To Save $1 Million By Age 65\nFinancial Advisor David Bach has written a book titled \u201cSmart Couples Finish Rich\u201d.\nIn this book, Bach makes a few bold claims. The one that is the most over-the-top is \u201cBecoming rich is nothing more than a matter of committing and sticking to a systematic savings and investment plan.\u201d\nBach then declares,\u201dYou don\u2019t need to have money to make money. You just need to make the right decisions \u2014 and act on them.\u201d\nThere is no denying the math behind the \u201cstart early, invest early\u201d philosophy; however, the theory does indeed require money.\nBach created a chart showing how much money you would have to invest each day, month, and year if you started investing at various ages and wanted to have $1 million saved by the time you turned 65. The chart shows the power of compounding and demonstrates that you have to invest less if you start earlier.\nA few of the number from the chart are:\nStarting Age, Savings Daily, Savings Monthly, Savings Annually:\n20 $2 $61 $730\n30 $6.35 $193 $2317\n40 $20.55 $625 $7500\n50 $73.49 $2,235 $26,824\nThe chart makes several assumptions:\nYou will have the money to invest every day, month, and year up until the age of 65.\nYou start with a $0 investment.\nYou will be able to earn a 12 percent annual return on your money every year.\nTax considerations are not factored in.\nYou don\u2019t dip into your savings before you turn 65.\nBach suggests that you start by ensuring you are contributing to your 401K and a Roth IRA. He also suggests finding little items to eliminate in your life to make a big difference for your future, such as the daily $4 coffee.\nOn the positive side, Bach shows that it is possible and reasonable to retire as a millionaire under the right circumstances, and, even if you didn\u2019t start early or ran into some trouble along the way, there is still an opportunity for you to recover. On the flip side, you are going to need some good savings habits and a way to pull off a 12 percent annual return, which isn\u2019t always an easy task.",

Udai Pareek and T. V. Rao interview about 40 officers (GMMs, JGMs, DGMs, Managers, Covenanted Officers and Supervisors) from L&T and review the system. On the basis of their review Pareek and Rao suggest the introduction of an Integrated Human Resources Development system to include Performance appraisal, Potential appraisal, Career Planning and Development, Feedback and counselling, training and Organization Development. To quote their report \"We recommend that Performance appraisal, Potential Appraisal, Feedback and counselling, Career Development and Career Planning and Training and Development get distinct attention as unique parts of an integrated system which we call the Human resources Development System\". (Nowhere in international literature was the term Human Resources Development System known to have been used till then. Later we discovered that Len Nadler around this time used the term in an ASTD conference to mean Training and Education)\nPareek and Rao's report further stated \"This system may either be treated as a sub-system under the Personnel (Human Resources) function or may be developed as a separate function, with strong linkages with the Personnel (Human Resources) system.... While we recommend the development of an integrated HRD System in L&T, we would like to point out that a lot of work, effort, and commitment would be required for this purpose. Introduction of a truncated system may defeat the purpose for which the system to be installed.\" It was Udai Pareek who introduced the term Human Resources as senior consultant of the project.\nThe report was presented to the Board in the presence of Holk Larsen. N M Desai, Mr. Larsen and the Board accepted the report in toto and decided to implement it. An implementation Task force was formed in L&T with Mr. Govind Advani as Convener of the HRD Implementation Task Force. Dr. D F Pereira was appointed as D G M, HRD and the new department was created with Mr. S R Subramniam as Vice-president Personnel and OD. In October 1975 after taking a decision to implement HRD system, N M Desai requested Pareek and Rao team to look into the other components of HR system. In their report submitted in 1977 Pareek and Rao outlined the other components and HR system and also outlined 14 principles underlying the system. These principles lift up the HR function to new heights and gave it a higher role in managing the entire organization set up including mechanism of structuring, integration of the business, differentiation, and self renewal.\nIt was around this time Udai Pareek while addressing the top management of State Bank of India at Hyderabad Staff College introduced to them the concept of HRD. After listening to Udai Pareek the top management of SBI decided to introduce the HRD systems and also start a HRD Department in SBI. The Associates of SBI stole the March and appointed HRD Managers in their Banks and a year later SBI appointed Mr. Shanmugam as a CGM to head the HRD Department. In 1977 T. V. Rao along with Udai Pareek conducted a series of programs to training HRD Managers of Associate banks of SBI on the HRD concepts in a program titled as Managing Motivation for Development by IIMA.\nIn 1978 Udai Pareek and SK Bhattacharya recommended the establishment of a HRD Department in Bharat Earth Movers Limited Bangalore (BEML). BEML invited Prof. T V Rao from IIMA to join and head the HR Department. Dr. Rao joined BEML as advisor in General Manager's capacity to establish the HRD function and agreed to stay for a year and train up the subsequent team. In the same year using his s experiences at BEML, Rao and Pareek held a seminar at IIMA on the new HR function. This is the first national workshop to disseminate the HRD concepts. The various chapters written for this workshop formed the subsequent book by Pareek and Rao (Designing and Managing HR systems published by Oxford & IBH see for latter version of this book). Anil Khandelwal was one of the participants in this workshop besides Mr. Shanmugam from SBI.\nIn 1981 T V Rao wrote an article on \"HRD Old wine in a new Bottle explaining the concept and origins of HRD in India\nIn 1983 I was invited to join XLRI as L&T Professor of HRD. I agreed to join provided that XLRI agrees to set up a center for HRD and also conduct an annual seminar on HRD as a part of the Chair. Fr. Romuald D'Souza agreed with my suggestion. Fr. E Abraham registered for his Ph. D. to work with me at Gujarat University as a candidate through IIMA. I went to start the Center and the center was inaugurated by N M Desai along with S R Subramaniam and D F Pereira in February 1984. We mobilised some funds and organizations like IOC, State Bank of Patiala become members of the Centre.\nIn 1984 Ravi Matthai died and I felt I had to get back to IIMA to continue the work started by Ravi. I was very disappointed with the way HRD is taking shape. T&D people renamed themselves as HRD and personnel departments began to re-title themselves as HR Departments without understanding the philosophy of HRD as envisaged by us. I can't let this go on. We organised a national seminar on HRD as a part of the L&T Chair. Dr Pereira facilitated this. Udai Pareek was in Indonesia working with Rolf Lynton and helping the Ministry of Health on a HTRD project.\nI used the seminar as an opportunity to sow the seeds of starting a professional body to continue the work I started at XLRI. I was aware that the Centre for HRD would not continue the way we envisaged as Fr. Abraham was moving to Ahmedabd to complete his Ph. D. The only way is to have a body and IIMA already refused my suggestion to start a HRD centre (and also Entrepreneurship center) earlier as a part of the Committee for Future Directions (headed by Dr. Rangarajan). IIMA's argument was that if every faculty specializing in an area wants to start a centre there will be too many centres and IIMA can't contain. Years after this IIMA started an incubation centre.\nOn the last day of the seminar at Mumbai on March 2nd, 1985 I proposed that we continue to learn from each other independent of XLRI, IIMA and L&T. The concept of an association was floated and learning Frome each other was initiated in the last sessions. Rajen suggested the concept of Network and we decided to alter call ourselves National HRD Network. I returned back to IIMA end of March 1985 and Fr. Abraham joined me back to complete his Ph. D. The Centre for HRD used to run from St. Xavier's Loyola School and Fr. Abraham used to steer it and we both together toured round the country next two years relentlessly and made sure that the chapter conceptualized in 1984 became active. Thanks to IIMA, I was asked to review the PGP and subsequently Chair it. It helped me to travel to Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Delhi, and Mumbai. Consultancy with SAIL helped me to travel to other places. Khandelwal, KK Verma, Rajen Gupta supported from Ahmedabad and Baroda and Chandrasekhar and PVR Murthy from Chennai. L&T and PVR played a significant role to facilitate my travel to Chennai. We floated programs using the name of the Centre for HRD and promoting NHRDN. Finally with the help of Mr. K K Nair of AMA we registered NHRDN at Ahmedabad in 1986 as a trust and Society. Abraham and I were the first members. For almost two years between 1985 and early 1987 we had no membership fee and enrolled anyone interested. We used to print 2,000 newsletters from CHRD and mail it free. We mobilized sponsorship for each issue from organizations I was consulting. State Bank of Patiala, Sundaram Clayton, MMTC, HPCL, L&T and a number of organizations used to sponsor and we mail the newsletter free. The registration address given was wing No 14 IIMA (where my office was located). We announced the first conference in Chennai and Chandrashekar of L&T ECC facilitated it. KK Verma, Anil, Fr Abraham and T V Rao formed the committee to mobilise papers and publish them to be handed over for the conference. We started the conference with a CEO conclave on the first day. Economic Times brought out a special edition of the paper for the conference. I talked to the editor Manu Shroff who was a former colleague at IIMA and got him to do two special editions for the conference. Media were very helpful. The first conference held in 1987 was big hit. Over 200 delegates attended including several CEOs, and Civil servants from Gujarat and other places attended. M R R Nair who attended the conference showed a lot of interest. We spotted him as the next President and he readily agreed to Chair the next Conference at Delhi and subsequently to become the President.\nIt is during his President-ship, we organised a Mission-Vision workshop. It is in this workshop the idea of an Institute to promote the objectives of NHRDN was conceptualized as we realised that the NHRDN can\u2019t achieve its objectives as a professional body. The Academy of HRD was born. It was also decided to make a separately registered Institution to promote research. The secret behind the decision was the delay in accounts being submitted by various chapters creating issues in NHRDN\u2019s governance. We did not want AHRD to be blocked by the difficulties faced by NHRDN. Also we needed to mobilize funds for the Institution which was possible only when it was registered as a separate body.",

        "raw_content": "As some of you know, I have been arguing for quite some time that the scope of section 1983 should not be governed by tort law. See Nahmod, Section 1983 and the \u201cBackground\u201d of Tort Liability, 50 Ind. L.J. 5 (1974).\nAlong the same lines, I have consistently maintained that the elements of the tort of malicious prosecution should play no meaningful role in section 1983 statutory interpretation\u2013see my post of Sept. 11, 2009. The only exception is where section 1983 damages actions challenge existing convictions. Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994).\nAs noted in my post of March 24, 2016, the Supreme Court granted the plaintiff Petitioner\u2019s petition for writ of certiorari in Manuel v. City of Joliet to address the question whether the Fourth Amendment can serve as the basis of a section 1983 \u201cmalicious prosecution\u201d claim. Counsel for Respondents asked me to submit an amicus brief in support of affirming the Seventh Circuit\u2018s judgment for Respondents.\nI filed my amicus brief on August 10, 2016, with the able assistance of Joshua Yount, Charles Woodworth and Michael Downey of Mayer Brown LLP, Chicago, Illinois.\nThe entire amicus brief is available here.\nFor those who do not want to read the entire brief, what follows is the full Introduction and Summary of Argument:\nINTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY OF\nOver twenty years ago, this Court acknowledged \u201can embarrassing diversity of judicial opinion\u201d on \u201cthe extent to which a claim of malicious prosecution is actionable under \u00a7 1983.\u201d Albright v. Oliver, 510 U.S. 266, 270 n.4 (1994) (plurality opinion). This embarrassment continues, seriously impeding the vindication of the Fourteenth Amendment and other constitutional rights. The time has come to answer the fundamental issues raised by the Question Presented, which as the certiorari petition recognized (at 10-11, 21, 25-26), necessarily include whether the elements of the common law malicious prosecution tort\u2014and the favorable termination element in particular\u2014 apply to Petitioner\u2019s \u00a7 1983 claim.\nThe only defensible answer to that crucial statutory interpretation question is that the common law elements of malicious prosecution should play no independent role in determining the scope of claims under 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1983. Section 1983 created a federal statutory remedy for constitutional violations perpetrated by state actors, whereas malicious prosecution is a common law tort. To describe a \u00a7 1983 claim as \u201cmalicious prosecution\u201d is a misnomer that directs attention away from the real inquiry\u2014the elements of the constitutional provision underlying the particular \u00a7 1983 claim\u2014and improperly focuses instead on the elements of the malicious prosecution tort. In this respect the Seventh Circuit gets it right while other circuits do not: \u201c[I]f a plaintiff can establish a violation of the fourth (or any other) amendment there is nothing but confusion to be gained by calling the legal theory \u2018malicious prosecution.\u2019\u201d Newsome v. McCabe, 256 F.3d 747, 751 (7th Cir. 2001).\nAttempts to analogize between so-called \u00a7 1983 \u201cmalicious prosecution\u201d claims and the common law elements of malicious prosecution have caused a great deal of confusion in the lower courts. The en banc Fifth Circuit described its own \u201cprecedent governing \u00a7 1983 malicious prosecution claims\u201d as \u201ca mix of misstatements and omissions\u201d that has led to \u201cinconsistencies and difficulties.\u201d Castellano v. Fragozo, 352 F.3d 939, 949 (5th Cir. 2003) (en banc). And the Fifth Circuit acknowledged that it is \u201cnot alone in this drift. Other circuits have traveled uneven paths as well, and numerous approaches have developed after Albright.\u201d Ibid.; see generally Sheldon H. Nahmod, Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Litigation: The Law of Section 1983 \u00a7\u00a7 3:66-3:67 (4th ed. 2015) (collecting and analyzing post-Albright cases in the circuits, and arguing that malicious prosecution law should not dictate scope of \u00a7 1983).\nPetitioner tries to take advantage of this confusion to save his \u00a7 1983 \u201cmalicious prosecution\u201d claim from dismissal on statute of limitations grounds. He maintains that \u00a7 1983 imports the \u201cfavorable termination\u201d element of common law malicious prosecution, which would have prevented accrual of his claim until he was released and the charges against him dropped. Such a maneuver cannot be squared with \u00a7 1983 or this Court\u2019s precedents.\n1. Contrary to the rule that Petitioner needs to prevail, the elements of common law torts like malicious prosecution do not dictate the elements of a \u00a7 1983 claim. Nothing in the text of \u00a7 1983, its legislative history, or its purposes indicates that Congress intended to merely duplicate common law torts. Section 1983 by its own language was enacted to enforce the \u201crights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws\u201d of the United States. 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1983. Regardless of any superficial similarity between particular \u00a7 1983 actions and particular tort actions, the vital constitutional interests served by \u00a7 1983 are distinct from and independent of the principles that animate tort law.\nThe Court has consistently reaffirmed that constitutional deprivations are central to \u00a7 1983 claims. Thus, the statutory cause of action may be interpreted against the \u201cbackground of tort liability,\u201d but only to implement \u00a7 1983, not to define its scope. Monroe v. Pape, 365 U.S. 167, 187 (1961), overruled on other grounds by Monell v. Dep\u2019t of Soc. Servs. of City of N.Y., 436 U.S. 658 (1978). At most, common law principles can fill gaps as necessary to effectuate a damages remedy for constitutional violations.\n2. Importing the common law elements of malicious prosecution into \u00a7 1983 would be particularly ill-advised. The last two decades have demonstrated that attempts to do so result only in confusion. Indeed, the fundamental disconnect between the elements of a \u00a7 1983 claim and the elements of a common law malicious prosecution claim virtually guarantees confusion. In addition, the entire enterprise of attempting to interpret a supposedly uniform federal cause of action based on tort law that varies not only from one state to another, but from the time of \u00a7 1983\u2019s enactment in 1871 to the present day, is just not workable.\nFinally, as a matter of \u00a7 1983 law and policy, there is no good reason to make any of the traditional elements of malicious prosecution into elements of Petitioner\u2019s \u00a7 1983 claim for unlawful pretrial detention. Several of the malicious prosecution elements (including the favorable termination requirement) contradict established \u00a7 1983 precedents. And others (such as the absence of probable cause) make sense only to the extent that the underlying constitutional right requires their consideration. In short, this Court\u2019s interpretation of \u00a7 1983 should not be governed by the common law tort of malicious prosecution.\n\u00ab Section 1983 Police Officer Liability for Driving Recklessly\nDeShaney in the Circuits (VII): Another Disturbing Affirmative Duty Case Lost by Plaintiffs \u00bb",

        "title": "Is the Right Wing Ready to Break Off? | Natural Solutions Radio",
        "raw_content": "Is the Right Wing Ready to Break Off?\nPosted by Mark Sircus - Director on 30 August 2012\nIs the right wing of the world financial systems ready to break off, plunging the world economy to its death? We are a world system, a huge jumbo jet flying at 35,000 feet and the pilots [the government] has announced turbulence ahead (but they are not telling us to buckle up\u2014so I am). Though most of us are still sitting in our seats and are comfortable\u2014if the right wing suddenly falls off there will be not a second before everyone is screaming and the plane heads down to disaster.\nTwo weeks after writing this essay the mainstream press was warning\u2014Euro Crisis Revving Up \u2013 Fasten Your Seatbelts. But August has brought little in terms of movement in any direction toward anything. We have had a quiet few weeks and no wonder, all the European politicians are away on their summer holidays\u2014but they are coming back from their yachts and their talk about the debt situation is anything but pretty.\nThe financial world doesn\u2019t seem to be experiencing major rumblings right now. The situation is like an active volcano that goes quiet before it really blows its top creating a false sense of financial security\u2014when we should be more alarmed now than ever. From all indications the next financial crisis will unleash devastating economic destruction.\nIn the case of the world financial system the right wing is Greece (which is only the very tip of the wing) and Spain, which is the broad body of the wing. If they break in the months ahead the rest of us are going to go down hard with them. That is the world system that is firmly entrenched, so this time around what happens to our brothers and sisters in Europe is going to matter very much to us. Unfortunately this is not a complete model because Italy is the other wing and Japan and China threaten to break engines and the fuselage both.\nThe news I am reporting on brings substance to the seriousness of the moment and the danger that lurks right before our closed eyes. A financial panic is in the offering and is very different from a regular stock market decline. During a panic there is widespread loss of faith in the entire financial system. That happened in 1907, which was used as an excuse to create the Federal (nothing federal or public about it) Reserve System.\nThese are scary times though we cannot succumb to fear. I am using a certain type of statement that uses the imagination as a tool of communication to capture images that speak loudly. These images are not meant to scare but to be conveyers of important information that needs to be brought to everyone\u2019s attention and taken in.\nUnited States Government Debt Growth and a Picture of the End\nWhat is amazing is how the powers that be can keep things looking normal as a financial tsunami threatens. We are all living on borrowed time because the world as we know it has been propped up by mountains of debt and it is about to come crashing down. Governments can defy gravity for only so long; the sheer weight of debt is going to have its way with all that we have built with it. Below is a graph that shows in another way the danger of the moment.\nProphets of Economic Doom\nBelow are the words of warning of intelligent men who know what they are talking about. They should be listened to. At this point the only thing we do not know is exactly when the wing is going to break off. That it\u2019s going to break off is approaching a level of probability that is certain. We can clearly see the cracks on the wings spreading, visible cracks that only the blind cannot see.\n\u201cThings get wackier by the week,\u201d says Doug Noland. \u201cMy proposition has been that once a credit crisis comes to afflict the \u2018core\u2019 [gravitating from the \u2018periphery\u2019] the deleterious consequences tend to be irreversible. As such, with Spain now engulfed in full-fledged financial, economic, political and social crisis, the overall European debt crisis has turned interminable.\u201d\n\u201cPolicymakers and market participants alike appreciate what\u2019s at stake,\u201d Noland said. Do you? Today Egon von Greyerz told King World News, \u201cWe\u2019ve had Lehman, AIG, MF Global, PFG, the latest [trouble] is Knight Capital, which lost $440 million overnight. This just shows that it\u2019s not safe for investors to keep their money in the system.\u201d\nGreyerz, who is founder and managing partner at Matterhorn Asset Management out of Switzerland, also said, \u201cWe are being warned that we should not keep the main part of our money there [in the financial system] because the risk that you will be totally wiped out is massive.\u201d\nThe Americans obviously have their own problems so what are the smart people who have money doing? \u201cThe real money is quietly running away into the safety of Geneva bank vaults.\u201d\nThe International Monetary Fund has called for more action in Europe as the crisis is destroying global growth. They are now crying for printing/counterfeiting of massive amounts of money because they know if the central banks don\u2019t do that the entire world economy will fall off a cliff into a stupendously catastrophic depression, which cannot be avoided no matter what they do. We live in make-believe land hoping that the big white boys with ties can save the day, but it just is not going to be that way.\nIn an unusually forthright statement, the IMF insisted that, \u201cFurther monetary easing and unconventional support would ease tensions as other policies are implemented and take effect.\u201d That\u2019s code for print money like mad!\nThe Greek crisis was merely the warm-up act for the main show: the default of Spain and its much-denied departure from the euro. And then Italy will come dead center in the crosshairs of investor\u2019s rifles but there they can always sell the Coliseum to the Huns.\nGary North says, \u201cThe ECB is the only European institution that can conceivably bail out the PIIGS [Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain]. It can do this only by debasing the euro. Inflation is the only option. There will be no fiscal union, except one that is imposed illegally. In any case, it cannot come before the end of the year. It is unlikely to come by the end of 2013. But the eurozone\u2019s banking system does not have until the end of the year. It must have a bailout now\u2014one large enough to carry the banks and governments of Spain and Italy through the recession.\u201d\nMeanwhile near-bankrupt Greece is fast running out of cash while it waits for its next installment of aid from international lenders, a deputy finance minister said last week, sounding the alarm on the country\u2019s precarious financial position. Greece\u2019s European partners have repeatedly promised the country will be funded through August, when it must repay a 3.2 billion euro bond, but the details of the funding have yet to be disclosed. In the absence of that money, Greece would run out of funds to pay everyday public expenses ranging from police and other public service wages to pensions and social benefits.\nThe hounds are closing in, meaning the money is running out and certain people are just getting tired of papering over bad debts with more paper that becomes more worthless as everything spirals out of control. The Huffington Post weighed in on this one saying, \u201cThe European Central Bank on Thursday stared a recession and financial crisis in the face\u2014and decided to do absolutely nothing about it. It was a page right out of the Federal Reserve\u2019s playbook, which on Wednesday stared a slowing economy and high unemployment in the face and decided to do absolutely nothing about it.\u201d\nWe are reaching the watershed moment\u2014the only way to escape a hellish deflationary collapse and a depression that will rip apart the world order and most of the people in it is to continue to do something like print up lots more money\u2014trillions of it! It does not matter, though, what they do\u2014financial Armageddon is coming. Yes they can delay this for months more but only if they print. Such printings though are proving to save the day for less and less time.\nMonty Pelerin says that, \u201cWe are in the latter stages of the debt death spiral where debt and interest payments can only be made by adding more debt. This process has a sure ending. Like the flush of a toilet, the spiral goes faster and faster until it finally ends.\u201d\nGraham Summers says, \u201cWe are facing a crisis in Europe that is far, far worse than 2008. It is so bad that, before it ends, it is quite possible that we will see the entire western financial system collapse and a new system put into place.\nRichard Duncan says, \u201cOur civilization would not be able to handle such a transition from an expansionary, credit-based economy where goods and services were readily available into a paradigm of credit contraction, supply shortages and destitution and this is what is coming. There is no way to prevent it\u2014only to defer it until a later date\u2014and that day will soon be upon us.\u201d\nHow soon? Pretty soon! Real soon! Soon enough!!! The longer the party lasts the drunker the system will be when the financial tidal wave hits and the system goes down. Where will you be when that happens, eating at MacDonald\u2019s? Where will you have your money, in the bank?\nIf there was any doubt on anyone\u2019s mind about what I am summarizing in this essay, know that that one of the most influential bankers from one of the most influential families in Europe has now bet against the recovery of the euro. Lord Jacob Rothschild, from the Rothschild banking mob has wagered $200 million against the European currency\u2014the euro\u2014and with it he is basically expressing his strong belief that the euro will collapse and so will the eurozone.\nLord Rothschild is a member of the dynasty that has, at least in part, ruled the world through powerful banking institutions. It is the same family that has made a killing many times before. During every single major financial crisis they have consolidated power, and it looks like they intend to continue that family history.\nAccording to NBC, Lord Jacob, one of the elders of the Rothschild family \u201chas taken the position against the euro through RIT Capital Partners, the 1.9 billion pound investment trust of which he is executive chairman.\u201d\nNo Good Ideas\nSimply spending money on empty buildings or non-essential projects may look good for GDP, but does not really help the overall economy:\n\u201c(DailyMail) Zhengzhou New District residential towers: Soaring\nproperty prices in China and high levels of investment has fueled the\nconstruction of up several new cities with no one living in them.\u201d\nJeff Thomas writes about the 11 steps a financial and economic crash will track through before everything that we know is destroyed. Jim Rogers, a billionaire who made the bulk of his fortune with progressive George Soros when they partnered in running the Quantum Fund said recently in a CNBC interview, \u201cPeople need to stop spending money they don\u2019t have. The solution to too much debt is not more debt. What would make me very excited is if a few people went bankrupt or a few people started paying off their debt. We are going to have financial Armageddon anyways, when the rest of the world is not going to give these people any more money.\u201d He went on to say, \"The Americans and the Germans they want to do everything they can to hold the world together until after the next election. It\u2019s going to be bad after the next election.\"",

        "raw_content": "Home Recent New & Noteworthy China Ends Wind Power Equipment Subsidies Challenged In WTO Dispute\nChina Ends Wind Power Equipment Subsidies Challenged In WTO Dispute\nChina has ended certain wind power equipment subsidies challenged by the U.S. in a World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute, according to U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) Ron Kirk.\nThe U.S. had challenged the Special Fund for Wind Power Equipment Manufacturing subsidies at the WTO following an investigation initiated in response to a petition filed by the United Steelworkers (USW).\nThe subsidies took the form of grants to Chinese wind turbine manufacturers that agreed to use key parts and components made in China rather than purchasing imports. The U.S. estimates that the grants provided to Chinese companies since 2008 could have totaled several million dollars. The size of the individual grants ranged between $6.7 million and $22.5 million, according to the USTR.\n\u2018Subsidies requiring the use of local content are particularly harmful and are expressly prohibited under WTO rules,\u2019 says Kirk. \u2018This outcome helps ensure fairness for American clean technology innovators and workers. We challenged these subsidies so that American manufacturers can produce wind turbine components here in the United States and sell them in China. That supports well-paying jobs here at home.\u2019\nLeo W. Gerard, president of the USW, applauds the decision.\n\u2018The Steelworkers Union petition and the Obama administration's pursuit of our complaint on the Special Fund provisions brought the Chinese to the table with a commitment to end this program,\u2019 he says. \u2018That's good news for our members, U.S. companies and American workers.\u2019\nThe WTO dispute challenging the special fund subsidies was initiated as a result of an investigation launched by USTR in response to a petition the USW filed under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. The investigation was initiated on Oct. 15, 2010. It probed allegations relating to a variety of Chinese policies and practices affecting trade and investment in the clean energy technology sector, including subsidies.\nThe U.S. then held WTO consultations with China on Feb. 18. In those consultations, the U.S. argued that the subsidies provided to Chinese wind turbine manufacturers under the Special Fund program were prohibited because they were conditioned on the use of domestic over imported goods. Following those consultations, China formally revoked the legal measure that had created the Special Fund program.",

        "title": "The Storyline of Scripture | new creation in X",
        "raw_content": "in Biblical Theology, New Creation, Scripture, The Gospel, Theology\nThe Storyline of Scripture\nScene 1 & 2: Creation and Fall\nThe Bible is a true story about God making the world, man messing it up, and God becoming a man to fix the world by not messing up. It is a story of Eden\u2014exile\u2014repeat. It is not until the true Adam, the true and righteous Son of God comes that this process is put to an end. All of Christ\u2019s predeceases fell short; Adam, Noah, Abraham, Saul, David, Solomon, and the lambs, priests, and prophets could not fill Christ\u2019s rule.\nFrom the beginning of time and the beginning of God\u2019s word, the Word has been a prominent character in the script of history (Gen. 1:1ff; Jn. 1:1ff). At first, the promised offspring (Gen. 3:15) is vague, in fact, Eve rejoiced because she thought she had the offspring (4:1) but it was all for naught for Cain was of the offspring of the serpent and killed his brother. However, now we have seen that which even the prophets longed to look (Matt. 13:17), we know that all Scripture finds its fulfillment in Jesus who is the long awaited Messiah (2 Cor. 1:20).\nWhen Jesus came the first time, He had no beauty or majesty (Is. 53:2). When He comes again His face will shine like the sun in full strength (Rev. 1:16). We were cast out of the Garden in the beginning but as Jesus said to the thief on the cross, we will be with Him in paradise in the end. Jesus is the linchpin among all the cogs of Scripture. \u201cThe trajectory of the arrow shot from the Hebrew Scriptures finds its target (fulfillment) in Jesus of Nazareth.\u201d[1]\nThe Storyline of the Scripture has all sorts of twists and turns, conflicts and resolutions, but the overarching story can be summed up: creation, fall, redemption, and new creation.\nThrough the creation part of the narrative we see that God made everything (Gen. 1:1ff; Jn. 1:1-3) and it was good (Gen. 1:4; 10; 12; 18; 21; 25; 31). There was no sin, no death, and no problems before man sinned. Man had perfect fellowship with God (cf. Gen. 3:8).[2]\nHowever, the plot thickens. A cosmic problem is introduced. Through man\u2019s fall, we see the collapse of the creation, which explains why everything is no longer good. Man disobeyed and rebelled (Gen. 2:16-17; 3:6) and this brought spiritual and physical death (Gen. 2:17; 3:19), pain (3:16-17), difficulties (3:18-19), and separation from God (3:23-24). This is the bad news. We deserve death and hell.\nScene 3 & 4: Redemption and New Creation\nThis is not the end of the story. There is good news. Even at the beginning of the story, God promised that He would send someone (i.e. the Messiah/Christ) to defeat the \u201cbad guy\u201d (i.e. Satan) of the story (cf. Gen 3:15). In a similar scene, seen throughout the Bible, man\u2019s nemesis is once again at it with him. Satan is tempting not Adam but the second Adam in the wilderness (Luke 4). However, unlike Adam in paradise, the second Adam does not give into the serpent\u2019s temptation, although He is in the desert. Jesus was tempted in every way that Adam was, and we are, yet He did not sin (Heb. 4:15) and still He bore our sin upon Himself.\nJesus became man so \u201cthat through death he might destroy the one who has the power over death, that is, the devil\u201d (Heb. 2:14). Jesus\u2019 heel was \u201cbruised\u201d at the cross but through that same cross, where He received the bruising, He struck the serpent with a definitive death blow to the head (cf. Gen. 3:15). From the cross, Jesus cried out, \u201cIt is finished!\u201d In Jesus\u2019 death, the devil, and death are defeated! He has delivered us from the domain of darkness (Col. 1:13). He disarmed the demonic rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them through the cross (Col. 2:15).\nJesus is the Promised One (Luke 24:27, 44-46; Acts 13:23, 27; 17:3; Rom. 1:2-4; 1 Cor. 15:3-4;) who brings the redemption of all things (cf. Rom. 5:10; Col. 1:20; Titus 2:14; Gal. 3:13; Eph. 1:7, 10).[3] He secures for us an eternal redemption by means of His own blood (Heb. 9:12). Jesus Christ is the solution to the problem; He takes our sin, our problem, upon Himself on the cross. This is the good news; Jesus is the good news![4] Jesus reversed the curse of sin by becoming a curse for us (Gal. 3:13). Jesus was cast out of the garden so that we could be welcomed back in. Through the one man Adam we all have condemnation yet through the one Man Jesus Christ the grace of God has abounded for many (Rom. 5:12-21).We deserved to be crushed under God\u2019s wrath because of our sin but instead Jesus was crushed in our place (Is. 52:13-53:12). Jesus is the solution to our problem of sin, the sole solution (Jn. 14:6; Act. 4:12). Jesus is the Lamb of God, without blemish, that takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29; Heb. 9:14)!\nJesus is the good news but the good news is not static it goes on and on and on; those in Christ live happily-ever-after (see endnote 3). In contrast, God \u201cwill gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers\u201d (Matt. 13:41) and cast them into the pit of eternal fire (Rev. 20:14-15). \u201cThey will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might\u201d (2 Thess. 1:9). However, for those in Christ the story of history will have a happy ending (Rom. 8:29-39).[5]\nI concur with what C.S. Lewis says in The Last Battle,\n\u201cWe can most truly say that they all lived happily ever after. But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on forever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.\u201d[6]\nI believe we, upon arrival to the new Eden, will exclaim with Lewis\u2019 Unicorn:\n\u201cI have come home at last! This is my real country! I belong here. This is the land I have been looking for all my life, though I never knew it to now. The reason why we loved the old Narnia [\u201cold creation\u201d] is that it sometime looked a little like this.\u201d[7]\nThrough Jesus the Christ we have the unwavering hope of a new creation (2 Peter 3:13). \u201cThe creation was subjected to futility\u201d in Adam (Gen. 317-19) but in Christ \u201cthe creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God\u201d (Rom. 8:20-21). As Isaac Watts put it in \u201cJoy to the World,\u201d\nThe problem (all of them!) will be fixed and there will be no more sin (Rev. 21:27; 22:3; Matt. 13:41). Everything will be more right than it was ever wrong. We will see that God did, in fact, work all things together for good (Rom. 8:28). Christ will make a new creation and we will be like Him (1 Jn. 3:2; Rom. 8:29; 2 Peter 1:4). \u201cJust as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven\u201d (1 Cor. 15:49). God will fulfill our deepest desires and we will finally love the LORD our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength when we receive our glorified bodies (Deut. 30:6; Jer. 31:33-34; 32:40; Phil. 3:20-21)! There will be no more pain or problems and God will wipe away all our tears (Rev. 7:17; 21:4). We will once again be in Paradise, the New Jerusalem, and we will have fellowship with God (Rev. 21:3)![8]\nThis story by its nature, by the fact that it claims to be true, does not leave us alone but calls for a response. We can receive this story or we can reject it outright. God can rewrite us, as it were, into His marvelous script or He can cast us, the unruly \u201ccast,\u201d into hell. We must respond to this story, will we respond rightly? Will we strive to obey the God who reveals Himself?\nI can\u2019t say it better than Michael Hortan. Those of us who have believed this story and are found in Christ,\n\u201cGod has \u2018rescripted\u2019 us and recast us in his story. No longer trying to fit \u2018God\u2019 or the gods into our own life story, we become characters in his unfolding drama: seated at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. From God\u2019s perspective, our own script was wrong. Regardless of the role we thought we had, our inherited character was that of \u2018strangers and to the covenants of promise\u201d who were \u2018having no hope \u2026 in the world\u2019 (Eph. 2:12). But God calls us, as he did Abram and the disciples, away from our dead-end character. In God\u2019s, our old character dies and a new character emerges who is now given a supporting role in a plot that centers on Christ. As the casting director, the Spirit gives us not only a new identity with new clothes but a new script, with new lines.\u201d[9]\nThis is the gospel, the story of all the woes of existence finding there solution in Christ.\n[1] Emlet, CrossTalk, 47.\n[2] Perfect in sense but not like it will be in the new creation; Adam and Eve related to God as creation to Creator and we will relate to God in the new creation as the redeemed to the Redeemer. Therefore, we will enjoy a consummated perfect fellowship with God.\n[3] Jesus has inaugurated the Kingdom of God but there is an already/not yet aspect to it. Although the Kingdom has been ushered in through Christ it will not reach its zenith until Christ\u2019s second coming and the culmination of the new creation. Jesus has saved us and \u201cput away sin by the sacrifice of Himself\u201d (Heb. 9:26) and yet there is still a future aspect to our salvation; He will save us (v. 28).\n[4] Luke 2:10-11 says, \u201cI bring you good news of great joy that will be for all people\u2026 a Savior, who is Christ the Lord\u201d (or even, LORD!). Matthew 1:24 says, Immanuel (which means, God with us)! Notice the genealogies point to Jesus as being the Christ that was promised to defeat \u201cthe Serpent of old\u201d (Matt. 1:1-18; Luke 3:23-38 says, \u201cJesus\u2026 the son of Adam\u201d who will crush Satan under His feet as promised).\n[5] Sadly, those who do not have faith in Jesus Christ will be cast into the lake of eternal fire (Dan. 12:2; Matt. 25:46; John 5:28-29; Acts 24:15; Rev. 20:12-13). It should be understood that this is part of God\u2019s reconciliation of the world, but not in redemption, but in recompense. The story for those in Christ is happily-ever-after, even more so than can be imagined, but for those not in Christ the story does not end nicely; in fact, it never ends, but is incomprehensible torment-ever-after. We should never take this part of the story lightly but we must seek to spread the good message of Christ and the hope of a \u201chappily-ever-after.\u201d Look at the difference between God\u2019s people in Isaiah 65:17-25 and the rebellious in 66:24.\n[6] C.S. Lewis, The Last Battle (New York: NY: Harper Collins, 2002), 228.\n[8] Jesus is surly coming soon (Rev. 22:7, 20), may we be found ready (v. 12; 3:23; Luke 12:47-48; Matt. 16:27; 1 Cor. 3:14-15) and may we respond with John: \u201cCome, Lord Jesus!\u201d\n[9] Michael Hortan, The Christian Faith: A Systematic Theology for Pilgrims on the Way, 643.\nTags: Bible, biblical theology, good news, gospel, Scripture, the gospel, Theology",

Gelberg\nA child of the Sixties, I turned on, tuned in, and dropped out of college in 1970 to pursue non-chemical enlightenment as a Hindu monk \u2013 eventually teaching, writing, and traveling widely throughout the U.S. and India. In 1987 I left the ashram to study comparative religion and mysticism at Harvard Divinity School (MTS, 1990), while also reviving my interest in psychedelics. In 1994, I discovered a creative passion in analog B&W fine art photography, which has continued to the present (www.stevengelberg.com). In 2012, inspired by personal experiences, I began immersing myself in a rather ambitious, full-time project: to curate/create a library of music (and sound) for use in expanded states of consciousness (extensive playlists can now be found on Spotify, under username \u201cstevengelberg\u201d). Discovering early on that the profound and dynamic role of music in altered states has received surprisingly little sustained attention in the psychedelic literature, I set about gathering as much material as I could find, along with excursions into writings on music-related consciousness studies, aesthetics, metaphysics, and healing. All this has culminated in an annotated collection titled Sacred Synergy: Music & Psychedelics, which continues to expand and evolve. A key focus is synesthesia, whereby sound and music create virtual realities, highly elaborated visionary states, often of a healing nature.\nOver the past three decades, Heidi has consulted with 200 technology startups and growth stage companies from the US, Europe and Asia.

At least, it started off that way on Monday with Jonathan Franzen, S.E.

But then they also demonstrated a lack of knowledge of politics (specifically, the Reagan administration), as well as literature and science (all wrapped up in one query about The Immortal Life Of Henrietta Lacks).\nThings didn\u2019t get much better in Double Jeopardy, as Cooper rang in on clues only to blank on the corresponding questions. And his underwhelming performance must have gotten to him, because he snapped at Alex Trebek at one point\u2014when the knowledge guardian implied that he hadn\u2019t phrased his answer in the form of a question, Cooper sniffed \u201cNo, I said it.\u201d His competitors had similar struggles, with Logan occasionally trying to pantomime her answers. For his part, Steele rang in on a handful of questions, though he only managed to answer a few of them correctly.

        "title": "Coal scam: ED attaches Rs 117-crore property of Prakash Industries",
        "raw_content": "New Delhi, Dec 4 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate has attached Rs 117.09-crore movable and immovable properties of Prakash Industries in connection with its ongoing probe against it in allocation of Fatehpur coal block in Chhattisgarh in 2008, the agency said on Tuesday.\nThe ED said the proceeds of the crime had been \u201cgenerated and used in the continuous expansion related to manufacturing activities\u201d therefore the properties were attached under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).\u201d\nThe ED said: \u201cPrakash Industries filed false declaration with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) on November 17, 2007 intimating the allocation of coal block. The coal block was actually allocated on February 6, 2008 jointly to Prakash Industries and SKS Ispat Power Ltd.\u201d\nAs a result of filing false declaration, the shares of Prakash Industries recorded an astronomical rise in their value, the ED said.\n\u201cAt one point of time on April 2, 2007, the share price was Rs 31 per share whereas it was Rs 351 per share on January 4, 2008. The company in order to encash the artificially created rise in their share value, issued 62,50,000 preferential shares on premium of Rs 180 per share and sold these shares to five selected companies. In this process, the firm generated Rs 118.75 crore in the form of share capital,\u201d the ED said.\nThe ED started a probe after filing a case on August 30, 2014 based on a Central Bureau of Investigation\u2019s FIR that followed allegation the firm had applied for allocation of coal block on January 12, 2007 to the Coal Ministry as per the advertisement dated November 13, 2006.\nThe application was found to be containing false net-worth details and on the basis of such misrepresentation, the company got allocated Fatehpur coal block on February 6, 2008, which was de-allocated in 2014, the ED said.\nrak/prs",

        "title": "Hi-Fi Financial Analysis free essay sample - New York Essays",
        "raw_content": "Hi-Fi Financial Analysis\nThe question asks us to compare and evaluate JB Hi-Fi\u2019s calculated ratio report, with that of the retail industry ratio report (Potter, Libby, Libby, Short p. 1133). The retail ratio report is comprised of a basket of listed companies which operate under the retail banner, which makes it relevant to use as a comparison to JB Hi-Fi. 1. Liquidity ratios are a class of financial metrics that is used to determine a company\u2019s ability to pay off its short-terms debts obligations. Generally, the higher the value of the ratio, the larger the margin of safety that the company possesses to cover short-term debts.\nTable 1: Current Ratio Current ratio: This ratio measures whether or not a firm has enough resources to pay its debts over a twelve month period, comparing its current assets, with its current liabilities. | 2010: 1. 25| 2011: 1. 45| Industry: 2. 67| Comparison: The industry average of 2. 67 indicates that for every dollar owed, companies, on average will have $2. 67 available in assets to convert into cash in the short term.\nFrom the JB Hi-Fi data calculated, it is interesting to note that current ratios of 1. 45 in 2011 and 1. 5 in 2010 are significantly below the industry average. However, this is not too concerning because JB Hi-Fi still have a ratio above 1, and therefore would still be able to meet their current obligations. The lower figure may be explained by the fact that JB Hi-Fi may have a high turnover of current assets, such as stock, which if sold before accounts payable become due, would decrease the current ratio. Table 2: Quick Ratio Quick ratio: This ratio examines a firm\u2019s ability to use its quick assets to extinguish its current liabilities immediately.\nInventory or stock is generally excluded from this equation in order to produce a more accurate account of the firm\u2019s ability to meet its short term obligations| 2010: 0. 33| 2011: 0. 27| Industry: 1. 92| Comparison: The quick ratio measure\u2019s an organisations ability to meet its current obligations with its most liquid assets. As inventory might not be turned into cash as promptly as other current assets, the quick ratio follows a more conservative approach than the current ratio and excludes inventory from current assets.\nJB Hi-Fi\u2019s quick ratio declined from 0. 33 to 0. 27 in 2010 to 2011 which are both alarmingly low from that of the industry\u2019s quick ratio of 1. 92. The organisation is clearly lacking in meeting its prompt liquidity requirements. 2. Activity ratios assess a firm\u2019s ability to convert different sectors of the balance sheet into cash or sales. Table 3: Inventory turnover Ratio Inventory turnover: This ratio measures the flow of stock within a certain time period. It assesses how long it takes for stock to be sold within a business.\nIn this case, the industry report indicates an average of 50 days inventory turnover throughout the retail industry. This is in comparison to 58. 67 (2011) and 56. 30 (2010) days it took JB Hi-Fi to move on stock within the business. These numbers hold up quite well to the industry average when taking into consideration the number of 45 firms used in the calculations. JB Hi-Fi takes approximately 7 days longer than average to move on their inventory, which in the scheme of things is a relatively insignificant difference.\nTable 4: Accounts Receivable Ratio Accounts receivable: This ratio measures a firm\u2019s effectiveness in extending credit as well as being able to collect debts| 2010: 1. 45| 2011: 1. 34| Industry: 25. 78| Comparison: In this situation, the retail sector average is 25. 78 days taken to receive cash from customers, compared to 1. 34 (2011) and 1. 45 (2010) days for JB Hi-Fi to collect its money from its debtors. This is positive for JB Hi-Fi as it indicates that it performs extremely well when it comes to collecting from debtors.\nThe company\u2019s figures are well below that of the industry average which is a positive achievement for JB Hi-Fi, as they are able to receive money quickly for credit sales. Table 5: Fixed Asset turnover Ratio The fixed-asset turnover: This ratio measures a company\u2019s ability to generate net sales from fixed-asset investments| 2010: 11. 03| 2011: 11. 25| Industry: 5. 26| Comparison: Here the industry average is 5. 26 times, compared to JB Hi-Fi\u2019s figures of 11. 25 (2011) and 11. 03 (2010) times. This indicates that JB Hi-Fi is able to generate greater sales from its fixed assets, when compared to the market average.\nGenerally, firms with a higher fixed asset turnover are successful in getting the most out of their assets, and in turn are able to generate higher revenues. Here JB Hi-Fi outperforms its sector, and this indicates that it is in a strong position to generate sales from the assets it has available. Table 6: Total Asset Turnover Ratio Total asset turnover : This ratio measures the efficiency of a company\u2019s use of its assets| 2010: 3. 97| 2011: 4| Industry: 3. 17| Comparison: This ratio calculates the amount of sales generated for every dollar worth of assets.\nThe retail average is 3. 17 times whilst JB Hi-Fi is slightly higher at 4. 00 (2011) and 3. 97 (2010) times. This indicates that JB Hi-Fi may have lower profit margins, when compared to the rest of the industry. This may be explained by the fact that JB Hi-Fi is more cutthroat and competitive when it comes to pricing, trying to gain as many sales as possible. Table 7: Days Payables Ratio Days payables: This is a ratio which examines the swiftness of a company in paying their creditors or suppliers. | 2010: 48. 09| 2011: 46. 73| Industry: 58. 83|\nComparison: Days payables are a ratio which examines the swiftness of a company in paying their creditors or suppliers. The industry average for this ratio is 58. 83 days, indicating it takes this long on average for the retail industry to pay for its supplies. In comparison, JB Hi-Fi took 46. 73 (2011) and 48. 09 (2010) days on average to pay its creditors, in the given years. This represents a different of almost two weeks, which, when considering companies want their money as quick as possible, leave JB Hi-Fi with a positive reputation amongst its suppliers.\nThe benefits of having a lower ratio in this situation may be that JB Hi-Fi receives a discount on credit deals for having paid in a shorter period. However, companies must be careful to avoid letting cash flow out of the business too quickly, if there is no reasonable gains to be made. This can be viewed as an advantage and a disadvantage as the company can hold off paying the creditors\u2019 this quickly and invest the funds in generation of more revenue. 3. Profitability ratios are important when assessing the profitability of a business. They give management useful insight into where and how they can improve the operations of a business.\nTable 8: Net Profit Margin Ratio The net profit margin: This ratio show the proportion of every dollar of sales that is left after all expenses has been paid, and remains as net profit. | 2010: 4. 34| 2011: 3. 71| Industry: 2. 45| Comparison: Although it is difficult to accurately compare profit ratios for different entities, as financial arrangements and expenditure vary greatly from business to business, it is valuable to compare how JB Hi-Fi stands up to the rest of the retail sector, in terms of profitability. The net profit margin is 2. 45% for the retail sector, whilst JB Hi-Fi operates at 3. 1% (2011) and 4. 34% (2010), which indicates a reasonably higher net profit margin.\nThis may indicate that JB Hi-Fi carries a higher margin of safety and less risk, compared to the average retail sector net profit, as a decline in profits would leave less of a strain on JB Hi-Fi. Having a higher net profit margin than the sector average leaves JB Hi-Fi in a good position to be a strong performer within the industry. Table 9: Return on equity Ratio Return on equity: This ratio indicates the amount of net income returned as a percentage of shareholders\u2019 equity| 2010: 45. 1| 2011: 49. 23| Industry: 16. 8| Comparison: Return on equity measures a corporation\u2019s profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. The sector average for return on equity is 16. 8%. Return on equity ratio measures the corporation\u2019s profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. In the case of JB Hi-Fi this ratio is very high compared to that of the industry. With 45. 41 in 2010 the ratio increased to 49. 23 in 2011.\nTable 10: Return on assets Ratio Return on assets: This ratio shows how profitable a company\u2019s assets are in generating revenue. | 2010: 25. 45| 2011: 21. 95| Industry: 7. 77| Comparison: Here the retail average is 7. 77% whilst JB Hi-Fi is almost triple at 21. 95% (2011) and 25. 45% (2010). This shows that JB Hi-Fi is superior to its industry average and its assets are highly successful in generating revenue. It shows that JB Hi-Fi management is successful in utilising assets correctly and gives them an advantage over the competition within the retail industry.\nReturn on Assets ratio gives an idea as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. This ratio declined from 25. 45 to 21. 95 in the case of JB Hi-Fi but was still high in comparison to that of the industry\u2019s ratio of 7. 77. The higher the ROA number, the better, because the company is earning more money on less investment. Table 11: Quality of income Ratio Quality of Income: This Ratio is computed by dividing Cash Flow from Operating Activities by net income. | 2010: 128. 19| 2011: 100. 23| Industry: 7. 03| Comparison: As the ratio indicates the proportion of income that has been ealized in, high levels for this ratio are desirable. In the case of JB Hi-Fi these ratio showed a decrease but they still remained well above the industry ratio. 4. Leverage ratios are ratios used to calculate the financial leverage of a company to get an idea of the company\u2019s methods of financing or to measure its ability to meet financial obligations. Table 12:\nTimes interest earned Ratio Times Interest earned: This ratio indicates the number of times a company can cover its interest charges on a pre-tax basis| 2010: 25. 17| 2011: 25. 94| Industry: 64. 2| Times interest earned or interest coverage ratio is a measure of a company\u2019s ability to honour its debt payments. It may be calculated as either EBIT or EBITDA divided by the total interest payable. In this case, the sector average is 64. 72 times whereas JB Hi-Fi had the figures of 25. 94 (2011) and 25. 17 (2010) times. Clearly, JB Hi-Fi differs significantly from the sector averages, however both figures are significantly greater than 1 and therefore there does not seem to be a problem for JB Hi-Fi to meet its obligations. Table 13: Asset/equity Ratio\nThe asset/equity ratio shows the relationship of the total assets of the firm to the portion owned by shareholders, also known as owner\u2019s equity. | 2010: 2. 63| 2011: 3. 32| Industry: 2. 16| Comparison: Assets/Equity leverage ratio measures the company\u2019s capacity to generate assets from its shareholders equity. Both in 2010 and 2011, the Asset/Equity ratio was higher than the industry ratio. However the difference between these ratios is only minimal. 5. Dividends identify the percentage of earnings (net income) per common share allocated to paying cash dividends to shareholders. Table 14: Dividend Yield Ratio\nDividend yield Ratio: This is the company\u2019s total annual dividend payments divided by its market capitalization, or the dividend per share, divided by the price per share. | 2010: 3. 29| 2011: 4. 75| Industry: 4. 75| Comparison: The dividend yield or the dividend-price ratio on a company stock is the company\u2019s total annual dividend payments divided by its market capitalization, or the dividend per share, divided by the price per share. This ratio reflects how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its share price. The dividend yield ratio was relatively the same for JB Hi-Fi in comparison to that of the industry.\nTable 15: Price Earnings Ratio Price Earnings Ratio: This ratio is a valuation ratio of a company\u2019s current share price compared to its per-share earnings. | 2010: 17. 18| 2011: 16. 77| Industry: 12. 16| Comparison: Price/earnings ratio is the valuation ratio of a company\u2019s current share price compared to its per-share earnings. This ratio was high in 2010 which decreased in 2011. Both of these ratios, however were high than the industry ratio. In general, a high P/E suggests that investors are expecting higher earnings growth in the future compared to companies with a lower P/E. Investor recommendations\nLooking at both the liquidity and activity of JB Hi-Fi, we can make a determination of the stability of the business through their ability to pay debtors and their earnings through everyday operations. JB Hi-Fi\u2019s liquidity to repay short-term debts is positive; however, looking at the quick ratio, they are unable to meet their obligations in the short-term. Because they operate with high levels of stock, up to $400 Million at the end of the financial period, this may paint JB Hi-Fi in a negative light. When looking at collection of debts, JB Hi-Fi\u2019s business model ensures that debts from customers are collected within a staggering 2 days.\nThis is perhaps reliant on the financing institutions JB Hi-Fi has partnered with that enable a quick turn around in collecting sales on credit. This is an extremely positive aspect of the business and management of JB Hi-Fi to remain liquid. The generation of sales from assets shows that JB Hi-Fi is able to move vast quantities of stock, resulting in net sales of $3 billion. Such a figure enhances the fixed asst turnover, yet remains steady in comparison to the industry total asset turnover. The total asset turnover ratio suggests that JB Hi-Fi is generating huge sales, yet their profit margins remain low.\nJB Hi-Fi\u2019s net profit has remained higher than industry averages, and indicates management\u2019s ability to generate sales from the assets it has at their disposal. JB Hi-Fi\u2019s profitability, although waning in 2011, shows that they are a strong performer in the current climate. Quality of income shows that the proportion if income that has been realised as cash. As for JB Hi-Fi, they have a very high cash turnover, and their ability to generate cash flows is extremely strong as compared to the industry average. The ability to repay debtors is relatively on par with the industry average.\nYet, it shows JB Hi-Fi still have substantial cash flow in paying creditors, as there is a substantial difference in COGS and accounts payable, to the order of $2 Billion paid to suppliers and other creditors throughout the period. JB Hi-fi\u2019s ROE and ROA ration is almost triple the industry average. It shows that JB Hi-Fi management is highly successful in generating revenue and utilising assets correctly. However, in terms of leverage, times interest earned was only 40% of the industry average and its financial leverage is almost 50% higher than the industry average.\nIt is suggested that JB Hi-Fi should not extend its finance liabilities from the creditors to finance its further investment as the currently level is already high. But, according to Bell (2012), management is persisting with the store rollout \u2013 16 will open in 2012, while the meantime the margin has been squeezed due to industry changes. There is no more serious threat, that the company will become a high-volume, low-margin retailer. Investing capital in to a declining business such like this will only things worse.\nHowever, if they stop rolling out more stores, the leverage will not become a major concern at this point of time as their earnings can cover 25 times of its interest. Evidence can be seen from positive financial leverage percentage (ROE-ROA>0). JB Hi-Fi\u2019s price earnings ratio is higher when compared with the industry average. However, this ration decreased in 2011. Which suggest that investors are expecting lower earnings growth in 2011 than 2010. The dividend yield for JB Hi-fi is the same as the industry average in 2011 which increased from 2010\u2019s 3. 29% to 4. 75% and annual dividend increase from 2010\u2019s 62c to 81c in 2011.\nIts shows, that the JB Hi-Fi has adopted the policy to increase its dividend for shareholders, as the lower growth expectation from investors. This made the company more attractive for investors who looking for regular cash flow. Based on the financial analysis, we believe that JB Hi-Fi will keep performing in the areas of business activity, profitability and paying an attractive dividend. However, investors have to pay attention to its financial leverage and liquidity to pay its creditors to avoid the risk that the company may become insolvent.\nTesco Financial Analysis\nFinancial Statement Analysis of Square Pharmaceuticals",

        "title": "World Champion Boxer Manny Pacquiao Builds 1,000 Homes For Poor Filipinos",
        "raw_content": "World Champion Boxer Manny Pacquiao Builds 1,000 Homes For Poor Filipinos\nIn the world of professional sports, athletes have long recognized their roots and beginnings and have been involved in helping communities. Earning a hefty salary for doing what they love, athletes worldwide have been known to be involved in charitable causes, and indulge in philanthropic efforts. Although they put their well-being on the line in the ring, professional boxers are known to bank impressive amounts, win or lose, in world-class match-ups.\nInvolved in what\u2019s said to be the \u2018fight of the century\u2019, professional boxer Manny Pacquiao, even upon his defeat, made over $100 million and is now using his earnings towards a respectable initiative. The Philippines-native took to Facebook with the message: \u201cI\u2019m so happy giving this houses free to my constituents in Sarangani Province from my own pocket more than thousand families are the beneficiaries.\u201d Upon his major, worldwide-viewed match with Floyd Mayweather Jr, he was inspired to make a difference with his earnings. The boxer felt it was his duty to give back and recognize his roots at a time like this.\nThis remarkable act has now housed a thousand families in his hometown, all thanks to his heartwarming plan to make a difference. Despite the power and aggression that he exploits to the world in his boxing matches, he is a warm-hearted individual who is a man of the people.\nBorn into poverty himself, he recognizes the struggle and feels that it\u2019s only right to give back from his own fortunes, to where his story began. He has always credited the people from his past for his success, and this gesture is an example of his gratitude.\nThe current Senator of the Philippines took care of this idea on his own, paying entirely out of his own pocket. Although he lost the big fight, his people have maintained their pride in the man who dared to fight the greatest boxer in history and put his country back on the map. During his current term as Senator, he plans to continue building homes for families in need and using his earnings towards the benefit of his people.\nThis is an example of the greater good that can come from sports, where many people feel that athletes are overpaid for what they do. Something to keep in mind, is that athletes dedicate their lives to these sports, and sacrifice family time in doing so, as they\u2019re always on the road during their busy seasonal schedules. Based on achievements and salary caps, individual athletes are compensated accordingly, and evidently, have the luxury and option to give back however they please.\nStraying away from the misconception people have about what star athletes do with their earnings, this idea exemplifies the impact that they can have if they choose charity. It\u2019s refreshing to see the humanly decisions that some of our idols behind the screen can make, recognizing their ability to influence and make a difference, and not forgetting where their dream began. \u201cI will never forget where I came from. I thank god for allowing me to help other people\u201d\nIf you liked this article, please Don\u2019t forget to SHARE with your Facebook friends",

        "raw_content": "Have you ever felt stuck or hopeless? We all have. In that moment of suffering, it\u2019s easy to feel as if you have no recourse.\nYou do. Ask for help.\nI\u2019m not talking about any old help from any old person, though. Ask for help from a Higher Power.\nThe word \u201chelp\u201d provides one of the most powerful prayers available to you and one that can shift you into a place of openness, hope, and faith. When you ask for help, you begin to sense that there is the possibility that everything will turn out okay.\nHello, Eternal Loving Presence\nRecently I heard Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith, an American New Thought minister, author, and founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center in Culver City, CA, speak about the topic of asking for help. He said help is the simplest prayer, but it has the power to help you transcend suffering.\n\u201cWhen I use the word \u2018help,\u2019\u201d he explains, \u201cI say, \u2018Hello, Eternal Loving Presence.\u2019 That\u2019s what help means to me.\u201d\nThat\u2019s a mindset shift, right? Instead of I need help, you switch into a conversation with the Divine. And that conversation gives you power.\nThe word \u201chelp\u201d provides one of the most powerful prayers available to you.\nThe Power Lies in the Communication\nWhen you say \u201chello,\u201d you acknowledge that you have direct access to Source Energy. You can communicate with God, whatever you believe that to be or whatever name you give it.\nIn and of itself, the ability to communicate with the Divine is powerful. Not everyone thinks they have that power\u2014an open line of communication with Source Energy.\nBut you do..and you can use that power. Speak: \u201cHello, Eternal Loving Presence.\u201d Then describe your suffering, and ask for the other type of help\u2026an answer or solution to your problem.\nCommunication requires two listeners. The first broadcasts a message. The second receives that message. One speaks, the other hears.\nIf you speak to a Higher Power, you assume that Higher Power hears you.\nAnd if the Divine hears you, then you can receive a message in return.\nSo use your power\u2014and the opportunity\u2014to speak.\nSay a short prayer: Hello, Eternal Loving Presence. It\u2019s me\u2026and I\u2019d like to talk to you about\u2026\nSome people say they speak to God, but they don\u2019t get a response. They hear nothing.\nThey feel the communication is one-sided.\nIn fact, they may not be listening. If you can relate to this, then it\u2019s time to become aware of God\u2019s response to you.\nSometimes the response comes as a Still Small Voice. It sounds just like you\u2026\nSometimes it comes as a feeling in your body\u2026a sensation.\nAnd sometimes it comes as a smell, sound, or something you perceive visually.\nBe aware. Be conscious. Pay attention.\nBut never feel stuck or hopeless again. Instead, say a short prayer: Hello, Eternal Loving Presence. It\u2019s me\u2026and I\u2019d like to talk to you about something\u2026\nTurn it over\u2026then watch for the Divine response. Trust. Have faith. Everything is working out for your highest good.\nWhat happens when you ask for help in this manner?\nCandra Johnspn says",

        "raw_content": "[Let\u2019s Talk] E3 2018 hopes and dreams\nPosted on June 2, 2018 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Let's Talk\nGuess what\u2019s just one week away? That\u2019s right: E3! The first conference will actually be held on June 9 by EA. Other companies will follow with their own presentations in the days after that, including Nintendo.\nIf you\u2019re a gamer, E3 is undoubtedly the most exciting time of the year. This goes for Nintendo fans as well even though we have Nintendo Directs to look forward to every now and then. E3 is packed with announcements, footage of new games (including a ton of hours from the Treehouse streams), and much more. Many companies lay out their plans for the rest of the year, as well what\u2019s planned far into the future.\nNaturally, what we\u2019re most interested in for E3 is Nintendo\u2019s coverage. Aside from Smash Bros. and Splatoon 2 tournaments in addition to days of Treehouse coverage, the Big N will host a video presentation during its regular Tuesday timeslot on June 12. Little is known about what will actually be shown. While we know that Smash Bros. will have a massive presence, technically no other games have been confirmed.\nThat being said, we have some idea as to what we can expect. It\u2019d make sense for the new Pokemon: Let\u2019s Go games to appear in some fashion. Fire Emblem should be there if it\u2019s truly launching in 2018 as was announced last year. Yoshi is likely to show up again after being unveiled last year, and then disappearing completely. There are rumors about a new Star Fox racing game from Retro, though if it\u2019s real, it\u2019s not necessarily a lock for this event.\nSince E3 hype is in full effect, let\u2019s have a chat about Nintendo\u2019s presence this year. What would be your dream announcement? What are you looking forward to? Let us know in the comments below.\nHighlights from last week\u2019s topic: Do the Star Fox Grand Prix rumors pique your interest?\nInstantly got my attention.\nStarFox is a series which looked interesting to me but I never enjoyed the on-rails gameplay. All that reminded me of is going to Davie\u2019s and Buster\u2019s or Chuckie Cheese playing a ton of on-rail games which required reactions I could never get in to. I get that home console experiences take out the foolish hard gameplay to get used to but at the same time I like exploring at my own paste. Whenever I play video games I start out slow then get really fast as I get more hours into the game.\nRacing games has always been a part of my childhood. From Sonic Riders to SSX Tricky there was a ton of racing games I loved when I was young. I didn\u2019t get into Mario Kart until 7 on the 3DS and the memories of playing it with friends on the bus every single morning was amazing. 8 Deluxe is something I can pick up at any time and beat everyone in. However I think I\u2019m ready for a more in depth racing experience.\nMixing in quick reactions with fast speed racing gameplay sounds like something I\u2019d be really in to.\nawng782\nStarFox Grand Prix definitely has my interest. It\u2019s Retro, who has yet to make a bad game, and the Switch could use another racer, especially if said racer involves flight, combat, an adventure mode, and a hub world (if some of the more specific rumors are to be believed).\nI like the concept of it. I never had my own copy of Diddy Kong Racing, though I do remember playing it a couple of times (Friend? Rental? Store demo? I don\u2019t exactly remember how.) and I think something like that could be just the shot in the arm that the Star Fox series needs. That said\u2026 I have A LOT of actually confirmed games I\u2019m looking forward to this year that I would prioritize over something like this. If it is real I\u2019d say it\u2019s solidly in the \u201cmaybe buy next year on sale\u201d category unless it\u2019s actual announcement has something that really stands out to me. Then it\u2019d move to the bottom of the \u201cbuy ASAP\u201d list. Though as I already said, that\u2019s a long list.\nAfter releasing a rather lackluster Star Fox Title after a decade of absence, and after F-Zero has had a much longer Absence, it hurts me on multiple levels as a fan of both franchises. They could make this into a new F-Zero game, or they could make a new Star Fox game. A spin off after a critical failure is not what Star Fox needs.\nWhile it is an odd idea initially, I think this makes perfect sense. Star Fox needs a rebirth and as it stands, no one seems to be able to make anything compelling with it. Nintendo tried making it an adventure game, a third-person shooter and a strategy game, along with remaking series high point Star Fox 64 both literally (Star Fox 64 3D) and spiritually (Star Fox Zero). None of that worked, but with this franchise you do have quirky animal characters, cool transformable spaceships and a sci-fi setting. All of that can be transformed into a hybrid racing game, that includes shooting mechanics, a wacky story and an explorable overworld.\nI think this could be great because it is a simple yet deep concept, with loads of potential for innovative design. Imagine race tracks that have multiple routes, where you can go on land, sea and air, with each one offering different challenges and shortcuts of their own. Maybe with online co-op in the story mode, your team can tackle each part individually, then intersect with each other at different points of the race, finally joining back up at the end to take on the boss. The reason so many other Star Fox games were let down, is because they were overcomplicated and unfocused. This is a cool concept, that is simple to understand, in a genre that is widely popular and makes sense for the franchise. It could turn Star Fox from a very cult, b-tier shooter franchise, into a really innovative hybrid racer, that really resonates with fans and newcomers.\nAlso, if the rumours are true, I hope whatever the other game Retro were working has not been cancelled, as that would be years of work gone to waste. Maybe they can re-jig it into something else or use the asset so for another title within Nintendo.",

(Ecstasy pills (source: commons.wikimedia.org))\nThe risks of taking so-called \"ecstasy light\", officially 4FA, are much bigger than assumed. Using the drug can lead to heart problems and strokes, according to the preliminary results of a still ongoing investigation by Trimbos Institute and Jellinek. The final results of the investigation is expected in October, but Trimbos found the risks of the drug so great that it was decided not to wait for the final results before alerting the public, NU.nl reports.\nTrimbos and Jelinek are both drug and addiction institutes that are present with other medical services at large events to provide first aid. These first aid organizations noticed a significant increase in the number of health incidents reported after the use of 4FA in a short time. The symptoms experienced vary from mild headaches to strokes and heart problems.\nThe study revealed that several patients were admitted to the hospital after using 4FA in a short period of time. According to the institutes, it is likely that a few people died after taking the drug based on information from first-aid posts. But the Netherlands Forensic Institute is still investigating this.\n4FA is currently legal as it is classified a \"new psychoactive substance\" (NPS) that is not banned under the Opium Act. According to Trimbus, the Coordination point Assessment and Monitoring for new drugs has been studying the risks of using the drug for some time and is advising the Health Ministry to take action.\nThe drug is called \"ecstasy light\" because it gives users a very similar euphoric feeling to ecstasy, only \"lighter\". People who use the drug say they have more control over themselves than when they use ecstasy. 4FA is quickly gaining popularity in the Netherlands.\necstasy light\nnew psychoactive substance",

        "raw_content": "Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a type of surgery that improves blood flow to the heart. Surgeons use CABG to treat people who have severe coronary heart disease (CHD). Symptoms of coronary artery disease include chest pain, fatigue, palpitations, abnormal heart rhythms and shortness of breath. In the CHD the blood flow to the heart is obstructed due to blockage of the arteries. These blockages are usually due to plaques which built up in the interior of the artery wall due to several reasons. As these arteries are responsible for blood supply to the heart, its blockage leads to deficiency in the blood supply to the heart leading to deficit in the oxygen supply. Coronary arteries carry oxygen-rich blood top the heart. The plaque hardens over the [period of time or can also rupture. The hardening of the plaque causes narrow passage for the blood to flow which leads to angina the symptoms of which include chest pain, breathlessness, fatigue etc. all due to deficiency in the oxygen rich blood supply to the heart.\nThe rupturing of the coronary artery is called as heart attack in which the blood clot is formed due to the rupture and this clot can then completely lead to blockage of the blood through the coronary arteries. Heart attacks can be fatal.\nDuring CABG, a healthy artery or vein from the body is connected, or grafted, to the blocked coronary artery. The grafted artery or vein bypasses creates a new path for oxygen-rich blood to flow to the heart muscle. The results of CABG usually are excellent. The surgery improves or completely relieves angina symptoms in most patients. CABG lowers risk of having a heart attack and aids longevity. Chances of developing coronary heart increase with age. Smoking, obesity, alcohol consumption, and comorbid conditions such as diabetes, hypertension can precipitate a heart attack. Surgeons can bypass multiple coronary arteries during one surgery.\nCABG improve your quality of life and reduces other CHD symptoms. It allows you to resume a more active lifestyle. It is a surgical intervention where surgery is the only option and anti-angina medications offer only limited benefit. Major arteries blockage, blockage above 70% narrowing the passage for the blood flow, CABG is the only option.\nCABG is a sophisticated and intricate surgery and needs to be conducted in a specialised institute and operating theatre equipped to handle such cases. The trained cardio-vascular thoracic surgeons carry out such surgeries with their skilled team. Concomitant diseases can complicate the surgery and also the post-surgery recovery period. For diabetic and hypertensive patients the blood sugar levels and blood pressure must be well controlled before undertaking the procedure. Post-surgery, the advice from the cardiologists, nutritionist and physiotherapist and other specialists must be adhered to. Regular exercise, weight control, positive attitude and regular medications help in complete recovery post-surgery. Dietary control is an important tool to prevent recurring of the arterial blockages. Fatty and salty food, high blood lipid levels have propensity to block the blood vessels. Thus, patients need to refrain from unhealthy life-style. The unaffected branches of the artery can also get blocked over the period of time and may call for surgery.\nWhat can I do to prevent my arteries narrowing?\nTo help prevent your arteries narrowing you can take medicines and make lifestyle changes. That way you may not need surgery to treat coronary heart disease.\nWhat is an arterial block?\nBlockages in arteries are buildup of cholesterol, scar, and muscle tissue with calcium within the wall of the artery that can block the flow of blood to the vital organ, such as the heart.\nCan I have bath after CABG?\nSponge baths are given immediately. It will be a few days however before you are allowed to take shower and shampoo.\nWill my cardiologist show me the diagram of the blockages?\nYes; after the angiography, the cardiologist will show you the picture and pin-point the blockages. This helps and patients and the caretakers understand the medical situation.\nWill the anesthesia used during the procedure affect my cognition?\nNo; the anesthetic drugs have short-span of action and are used in the concentration based on the duration of the surgery and immediate post0surgery recovery period. It does not affect the metal faculties of the brain.",

        "title": "Stanford Space Initiative to launch rocket on Saturday | Stanford Daily",
        "raw_content": "(Courtesy of Stanford Space Initiative)\nStanford Space Initiative to launch rocket on Saturday\nThis Saturday, the Stanford Space Initiative (SSI) Rockets Team is scheduled to launch a rocket it has been building in the basement of End Station III in the Engineering Quad over the past two quarters.\nThe team is building the rocket in preparation for the Intercollegiate Rocket Engineering Competition, which happens every June. Last year, SSI came in first with a rocket that reached a height of 30,000 feet. Team members hope that this year\u2019s rocket will win them the same title.\nTheir ultimate goal is to make SSI the first student group in the world to launch a rocket 100 kilometers above the ground \u2013 the height that marks the beginning of outer space.\nLate Tuesday night, the launch planned by the Rockets team for this Saturday was canceled due to weather. However, this is a fairly common occurrence.\n\u201cHalf of the launches get canceled because there\u2019s either too much rain or not enough rain,\u201d said William Alvero Koski \u201819, co-lead of the Rockets Team.\nNonetheless, the team hopes to accomplish at least five launches before the competition in June.\n\u201cLast time, we did a very basic test with just the rocket and the recovery system. This launch, we\u2019re adding more flight computers and then the payload,\u201d Koski said.\nIn addition to the Rockets Team, SSI\u2019s over a hundred members are split across five additional teams: Balloons, Satellites, Biology, Operations and Policy.\nThe Biology Team is currently focusing on building a DNA synthesizer that could one day be used to create biological compounds in the vacuum of space. The Satellites Team\u2019s goal is to get two satellites to communicate with one another. It is currently working with a company called Odyssey to launch a satellite this June.\nIn December 2017, the Balloons Team launched a high altitude latex balloon from Hollister, California. The balloon flew autonomously, reached altitudes of up to 80,000 feet, and stayed in the air for 121 hours and 34 minutes. That duration surpassed the previous world record, also set by SSI, for longest duration flight by a latex balloon by nearly 33 hours. The team hopes to eventually use its balloons to circumnavigate the earth.\nTo some, the projects that SSI undertakes may seem daunting, but Shi Tuck \u201920, the group\u2019s president, stressed that the club welcomes individuals with all levels of background experience.\n\u201cWe want to be as inclusive a community as possible; not telling anybody \u2018you can\u2019t do this because you don\u2019t know this.\u2019 The whole point of SSI is to learn,\u201d said Tuck.\nTuck joined SSI her freshman year as a member of the Satellites Team. With some help from upperclassmen, she built the flight computer for the team\u2019s satellite despite not having taking a single electrical engineering class.\nThe Rockets Team also helps teach new members the basics of rocketry. This year, many members learned how build and launch their own rockets to become certified in high-powered rocketry.\nSSI is also working to share its interests with the rest of campus. The Operations Team works to bring leaders in space technology to speak at Stanford. Last fall, they invited Gwynne Shotwell, the president of SpaceX, to share her perspective on the space industry. This spring, the Policy Team is offering a class called AA47SI: \u201cWhy Go to Space?\u201d to educate students on space ethics, space policy and the history of space exploration.\nFor many of its members, the best part about SSI is the community it fosters.\n\u201c[SSI] congregates everyone who\u2019s interested in the same stuff I\u2019m interested in into one place,\u201d Koski said. \u201cIf I ever want to talk about space, I can just come here.\u201d\naltitude balloons EE experiences outer space policy rockets Science space SSI Stanford Space Initiative student life Technology\t2018-03-01\nTagged with: altitude balloons EE experiences outer space policy rockets Science space SSI Stanford Space Initiative student life Technology",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Imaginary Countries\nFreak Business \u2192\nColin\u2019s ABA* tutors, at least a dozen in the last five years, play a singular role in his life, even the ones that come and go after a few months. Several tutors have watched him grow up, rarely going more than a week without seeing him, becoming more like family than tutors or babysitters. Colin and his tutors play and argue, even bringing each other to tears\u2014intimate enough to hurt or delight with a mere glance. Quinn works with the tutors along with Colin much of the time. The relationships play out not just in our living room during ABA therapy but at horseback riding lessons, tag in the backyard, swimming lessons, or greeting a new puppy just adopted from the shelter, at birthday parties, wedding receptions, family vacations, and emergencies.\nIt\u2019s not lost on me how these tutors perform a kind of magic with our son that my wife and I could never do on our own. How will Colin\u2014ten years hence\u2014remember this stream of older friends, most of them College students or teenagers from the neighborhood, who came in and out of his life? Few children have such an entourage of adults tied so close to them.\nAt the back of the thick three-ring binder where the tutors keep the meticulous ABA paperwork, logs, and progress notes, I find a different kind of log, more like a diary of interactions they don\u2019t want to forget. Here is a sampling:\nWhile we were painting, I asked Colin what a color was and he said, \u201cOh, that\u2019s a strange color.\u201d\nColin was reading and I was trying to ask him questions. He said, \u201cCan you please use quiet talk?\u201d\nColin said, \u201cSomeone loves you.\u201d I said, \u201cWho?\u201d He replied, \u201cI do.\u201d\nColin was drawing the planets and so I read from the back of his card about Uranus. I asked Colin if he knew the fact I read. He said, \u201cYes,\u201d then added \u201cUm, Could you please put that down please.\u201d\nI tried the \u201cWhat doesn\u2019t belong\u201d exercise with Colin, giving him this list of words: fire truck, bike, ambulance, police car. Colin said: \u201cThe bike\u2014because it\u2019s not an emergency rescue vehicle.\u201d\nColin and Quinn were in the sun room looking at the flag book and having such a great conversation together about going places and what flag was what.\nAt horseback riding, his teacher Katy was telling Colin he needed to keep his seat in the saddle. So she put a piece of paper under his bottom. She told him to stand up so she could put the paper under him and then said, \u201cSit.\u201d Colin said, \u201cYou\u2019re treating me like a dog.\u201d\nWe were doing the \u201cHow do ____ and ____ go together\u201d exercise. So I asked Colin how his cousins Sydney and Kelly go together and he said, \u201cBecause they love each other.\u201d\nColin was playing with the cat and said to the cat, \u201cHi, Mr. Tumnus,\u201d and the cat meowed. Colin said, \u201cHey, the cat speaks English!\u201d\nWe were listening to Alan Jackson and Colin said, \u201cDo you know what? I\u2019m right on the money!\u201d\nColin asked me, \u201cWhy are you cold?\u201d It was great to hear him ask a question without any prompts.\nAt horseback riding lessons, as Colin was getting situated on the horse, he turned his head and winked at me.\nColin and I were playing catch. When I missed a few times, he said, \u201cWell, it is a hard game.\u201d\nColin saw my dry feet. He asked me what was on my feet and I told him that they were just dry. He said, \u201cYou should put some water on them.\u201d\nWhen we were practicing \u201cCause and Effect\u201d I asked Colin why there are cafeterias in school?\u201d He said, \u201cEveryone knows that! So kids can eat lunch.\u201d\nWhen Colin is horseback riding, he has a hard time remembering to sit up straight. The instructor, Kate, shows him how he looks slouched, then shows him how he should sit up straight with shoulders back. Colin looks at her and says, \u201cWhat are those next to your shoulders\u201d you know they start with a \u2018B\u2019.\u201d I knew what he was starting to talk about so I said, \u201cColin, let\u2019s focus on riding our horse.\u201d He says okay, and then adds, talking to Kate, \u201cWell, I wish I had nice breasts like yours.\u201d\nColin said, \u201cLet\u2019s rule the world as tutor and son.\u201d\nI said, \u201cLet\u2019s play tag to get your energy out.\u201d Colin got a little upset and said, \u201cNo. You are just teasing me. I want to keep my energy in.\u201d\nI wore a flower in my hair today. Colin asked why and I told him I thought the flower was pretty. He replied with, \u201cOh, well, I think you\u2019re beautiful and I want to marry you.\u201d\nColin was brushing his horse, Merlin, when he saw a scrape on him. Colin said, \u201cWhat\u2019s this?\u201d Katy told him that when horse play they sometimes bite each other. Colin was sad and looked at the scrape some more. He said, \u201cWell someone sure emptied Merlin\u2019s bucket.\u201d Later that same day, Katy had to chase Merlin around the pasture to get him for the lesson. So when Colin was brushing him, Merlin was sweaty and breathing hard. Colin put his head up to the horse\u2019s belly to feel and hear the heartbeat. Colin said, \u201cWhoa . . . It\u2019s like my washing machine!\u201d\nThese tutors have watched Colin tune in to the world in his unique way, from week to week, month by month, year after year. It\u2019s not something you can witness close up and easily forget.\n*Applied Behavior Analysis\nThis entry was posted in Field Notes and tagged \"autism, ABA therapy, Applied Behavior Analysis, autism treatment.

        "raw_content": "August 3, 2017 Nadya RousseauNo comments\nLinkedIn is, without a doubt, a powerful tool for networking \u2013 for individuals and companies looking to make connections, build their brand and generate leads. Apart from being an important social platform for every business, LinkedIn can be especially beneficial for B2B (business to business) companies.\nHere, we show you why your business \u2013 even more so if you\u2019re in the B2B space \u2013 shouldn\u2019t wait anymore to integrate LinkedIn with your social media marketing strategy.\nThe most effective way to recruit new talent.\nWhile career websites and job boards are typically the top channels for finding qualified job applicants, the use of professional networking sites for recruiting has seen explosive growth over the past four years. According to LinkedIn\u2019s own research, these sites have seen as much as 73% increase in job recruitment usage. This is when compared to a mere 15% increase for internet job boards and in contrast to a 16% decrease for staffing agencies.\nThe most important Social Platform (for B2B marketers)\nAccording to the Social Media Marketing Industry report, LinkedIn has surpassed Facebook to become the most important social platform for B2B marketers. While as much as 21% of B2C marketers cited LinkedIn as their #1 platform, over 40% of B2B marketers put it at the top of their list. This is when compared to the mere 30% who said Facebook was the most important.\nThe third most popular social platform among all business owners.\nAs per a State of Marketing report from Salesforce, LinkedIn is the third most widely used social network among business owners. With over 60% of business owners affirming that they use the platform, and a prospective 22% who say they intend to use it in the coming year, the prominence of LinkedIn as a valuable business tool shows all signs of gathering speed.\nThe most effective platform for product launches.\nIf you are still relying on traditional press releases to get the word out about your new products, this might not be relevant to you. Social media \u2013 and in particular, LinkedIn has had an enormous impact on how we disseminate news and product information to the media, followers, and consumers. According to a poll from Regalix, LinkedIn has become the top platform for product launches among B2B businesses. An astounding 81% of B2B businesses say they make use of LinkedIn for launches, compared to a significantly lesser 71% who make use of Twitter and even fewer 54% who use Facebook.\nA highly effective platform for lead generation.\nEarlier research from Hubspot found that LinkedIn referral traffic had the highest rates of visitor-to-lead conversion among all social networking sites; even higher than Facebook or Twitter. It found that while LinkedIn averaged conversion rates of 2.74%, Facebook\u2019s .77% and Twitter\u2019s .69 were abysmal, to say the least.\nSocial media is in a constant state of evolution and flux, and these numbers are likely to change over the coming years. However, there\u2019s no doubt that LinkedIn continues to enjoy success in a significant number of aspects of business \u2013 especially in the B2B space.\nRelated post : Measure Impact, Grow Results: Easy Metrics for Instagram Success\nPrevious post Social Media and Marketing \u2013 What\u2019s in Store for 2017.",

        "raw_content": "wesley chapel Real Estate and Information\nWesley Chapel has been a major a straw that stirs the drink in the rapid growth of Pasco County, 38th fastest-growing county in the nation and retains much in the reserve of wildlife. Also as of July 2007, a new county park opened at the southwest corner of Boyette and Overpass roads. State Road 56 is currently slated to extend east from its current terminus at Bruce B. Downs Boulevard to a terminus at US 301 in Zephyrhills, of which the first phase has begun March 2008. Wesley Chapel was also listed as one of the \"8 boomtowns of 2008\" by the Gadberry Group's annual list. Wesley Chapel has a new hospital called Florida Hospital at Wesley Chapel, and Pasco-Hernando State College's latest campus, Porter Campus at Wiregrass Ranch.\nThis is a census-designated place (CDP) in Pasco County, Florida. Wesley Chapel is considered part of the Tampa Bay Area metro. As at 2010, the population was 44,09. In 2003, certain inhabitants of Wesley Chapel pioneered a movement to integrate the community (including areas not in the official CDP). This \"city, would have been their largest and most populous in Pasco County today, but never materialized. Originally called Double Branch for the area's twin creeks, the community was named for the Methodist chapel that stood on the northwest corner of SR 54 and Boyette Road. A popular alias for the area was \"Gatorville.\" Since 2000, Wesley Chapel has experienced rapid growth and development. Newcomers from in and out of state have populated new luxury communities such as the Enclave at Wiregrass Apartments, Preserved at Quail Woods by Southern Crafted Homes, Lexington Brooksville, Oaks, Saddlewood, Bridgeview, Watergrass, Villages of Wesley Chapel, Seven Oaks, Country Walk, Chapel Pines, Northwood, Bridgewater, Meadow Pointe, Saddlebrook and Citrus Trace. Several town-home developments have been built in Saddle Creek and Santa Fe. A new retirement community is planned by Del Webb.\nTo its credit, the area has two middle schools and two high schools, half of which are brand new. Two of three planned malls have now opened, including the Shops at Wiregrass and a big box mall called The Grove on the northern perimeter. Wiregrass is known for its well-reviewed cafes. Development plans for Cypress Creek Town Center are underway. Two new schools have also been built, Dr. John Long Middle School and Wiregrass Ranch High School (which was built to relieve overcrowding at Wesley Chapel High School). The newest of the two high Schools and middle schools is situated in a community called Meadow Pointe.",

        "raw_content": "The Heartland Clergy for Inclusion are inviting clergy to read and sign if in agreement.\nThe Heartland Proclamation\nAs Christian clergy\nwe proclaim the Good News concerning Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) persons and publicly apologize where we have been silent. As disciples of Jesus, who assures us that the truth sets us free, we recognize that the debate is over. The verdict is in. Homosexuality is not a sickness, not a choice, and not a sin. We find no rational biblical or theological basis to condemn or deny the rights of any person based on sexual orientation. Silence by many has allowed political and religious rhetoric to monopolize public perception, creating the impression that there is only one Christian perspective on this issue. Yet we recognize and celebrate that we are far from alone, as Christians, in affirming that LGBT persons are distinctive, holy, and precious gifts to all who struggle to become the family of God.\nIn repentance and obedience to the Holy Spirit, we stand in solidarity as those who are committed to work and pray for full acceptance and inclusion of LGBT persons in our churches and in our world. We lament that LGBT persons are condemned and excluded by individuals and institutions, political and religious, who claim to be speaking the truth of Christian teaching. This leads directly and indirectly to intolerance, discrimination, suffering, and even death. The Holy Spirit compels us:\nto affirm that the essence of Christian life is not focused on sexual orientation, but how one lives by grace in relationship with God, with compassion toward humanity;\nto embrace the full inclusion of our LGBT brothers and sisters in all areas of church life, including leadership;\nto declare that the violence must stop. Christ\u2019s love moves us to work for the healing of wounded souls who are victims of abuse often propagated in the name of Christ;\nto celebrate the prophetic witness of all people who have refused to let the voice of intolerance and violence speak for Christianity, especially LGBT persons, who have met hatred with love;\nTherefore we call for an end to all religious and civil discrimination against any person based on sexual orientation and gender identity and expression. All laws must include and protect the freedoms, rights, and equal legal standing of all persons, in and outside the church.\nCategories ActivismTags christianity, glbt\tPost navigation\nA Tribute to Ms. Clara S.

We\u2019re focused on creating safe water supplies, sanitation facilities and hygiene-related facilities for rural villagers in developing countries. We believe the lack of safe drinking water and sanitation facilities are the root causes of hunger, disease and poverty throughout the developing world. Our water projects have an immediate life-changing impact, particularly for women and children, who have the responsibility to gather water for their families every day of their lives. Successful Global Water projects utilize water and sanitation as a tool to create sustainable socioeconomic development in these poor rural communities.\nVillage of Kalampatzom, Guatemala Water Supply Project \u2013\nThe first stage of the Kalampatzom water system project was finished during 2008 and consisted of capturing a natural hillside spring with a concrete protection enclosure, building a 3.5 km pipe line to two distribution tanks of 5 cubic meter (5,000 liters) each.\nVillage of El Mirador, Guatemala Water Supply Project \u2013\nIn 2008 Global Water supported a water supply project for the village of El Mirador. This project included the creation of an elaborate spring protection/catchment system to collect small natural springs for use by a rural community.\nHealthy Schools Program \u2013\nIn 2008 Global Water continued our ongoing support of the program in Guatemala in conjunction with the Appropriate Technology Program in the Peace Corps. The Healthy Schools Program is a collaborative effort with its goal of developing safe water supplies, latrines, and hygiene facilities, as well as related educational information for rural schools throughout Guatemala. The program involves four organizations \u2013 the Peace Corps (providing a volunteer for day to day oversight), Aqua Para La Salud (Guatemalan NGO that provides technical expertise), Global Water (providing primary funding and equipment support), and the Guatemalan Department of Education (providing official recognition of a \u201cHealthy School\u201d).\nHere\u2019s a list of some of the Healthy Schools projects funded during 2008 -\nXesajcap I \u2013 School hand washing station and latrines\nXesajcap II \u2013 School hand washing station and latrines\nParajabey \u2013 School hand washing station\nXepanil \u2013 School hand washing station\nChuacacay \u2013 School hand washing station\nXeabaj \u2013 School hand washing station\nChuapural II \u2013 School hand washing station\nChoantonio \u2013 School hand washing station\nVillage of Cotzol, Guatemala Water Supply Project \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for a water supply project for the rural village of Cotzol, Guatemala to service about 500 people living in the village. The water supply system consisted of two spring catchment boxes connecting through piping down the hillside towards the village to a distribution tank of 5m3 (1,300 gallons) built at the village of Cotzol.\nVillage of San Cayetano, Nicaragua Water Supply Project \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for a water supply project for the rural village of San Cayetano, Nicaragua. This project consisted of building a new spring catchment system to replace an old spring system that had failed.\nVillage of Balsamo, Nicaragua Water Supply Project \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for a water supply project for the rural village of Balsamo, Nicaragua. This rural village has 30 houses and 32 families (approximately 160 people) living in the area. This is another old spring catchment system that had failed and needed replacement.\nVillage of La Flor, Nicaragua Water Supply Project \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for a water supply project for the rural village of La Flor, Nicaragua. There was an existing centralized unprotected hand-dug well that is used by villagers in the vicinity of the well. The well was dug deeper, sealed and a rope pump installed.\nVillage of La Pita, Nicaragua Water Supply Project \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for a water supply project for the village of La Pita. The objective of this project was to construct a new gravity-fed water supply system to provide sufficient and safe water for community household uses.\nWater Supply Project for Three Villages on the Island of Flores, Indonesia \u2013\nThe approximate 1,000 inhabitants of the island of Flores, Indonesia must trek many hundreds of feet down dangerous crevices to access natural springs that exist on the island of Flores. Global Water funded a local NGO to build two solar-powered water distribution systems that now pumps water from its current location below the villages of Watu, Maghilewa, and Jere (on the island of Flores) to water storage tanks to be located at each village.\nWater Supply Project for the Community of Maweni, Tanzania \u2013\nThe only water available to the 4,000 residence of the arid community of Maweni is two streams that are highly polluted. There is one stand pipe that turns on every 2 weeks for 30 minutes to service everyone. Global Water partially funded an NGO to build an 80,000 liter rain catchment system at the village primary school for use by the school and community.\nWater Supply Project for Communities along the Peruvian Amazon \u2013\nGlobal Water provided funding for students from Florida International University in a project called Project Amazonas to introduce clean water for rural villagers. Specifically, slow-sand filtration water purification systems, combined with rainwater collection were built to provide clean water for individual houses, as well as for schools and clinics, in remote areas along the Peruvian Amazon.\nGLOBAL WATER was founded in 1982 by former U.S. Ambassador John McDonald and Dr. Peter Bourne to help save the lives of people in developing countries that are lost due to unclean water.\nIn 1977 the United Nations hosted a World Conference on Water. One of the many recommendations made by the Conference was to recommend a Decade focused on drinking water and sanitation. In 1978 Ambassador McDonald lifted that paragraph out of the larger World Conference document and decided to make that recommendation a reality. On November 10, 1980 the United Nations General Assembly adopted McDonald\u2019s resolution unanimously and the Decade was launched (1981-1990). McDonald was named the United States Coordinator for the Decade by the State Department in 1979 and has continued his interest in water issues to this day.\nDr. Peter Bourne, a former White House Special Assistant to President Carter, was named United Nations Coordinator for the Decade in 1982, with the rank of Assistant Secretary General and was based in New York. The Decade was a great success bringing 1.1 billion people safe drinking water for the first time in their lives and 769 million people sanitation facilities.\u201d\nDuring this period, Ambassador McDonald traveled extensively to developing nations and saw first hand the problems that unclean water causes people to endure; as he tells it: \"Nothing I had ever seen in my life prepared me for the day I landed in Africa. I saw villages where people trekked miles in the hot sun just to get clean water for the day. But even more tragic were the children I saw suffering from the lack of clean water. Many seemed to be just hours from death, and others had lost their vision to trachoma, an easily preventable disease caused by contaminated water.\"\nRather than providing short-term supplies like food and bottled water that are quickly consumed, GLOBAL WATER focuses on permanent solutions to a region's water needs. A handout fills a stomach for a few hours. Global Water enables entire villages to have clean, healthy water forever in order to change their lives - forever.\nwww.globalwater.org\nLast Updated: 13 Oct, 2009 (over 9 years ago)\nIxil health clinic in Xepiun\nGuatemala | Ixil region of Quiche department | Municipality of Nebaj, Guatemala",

        "raw_content": "Etab Saleh Alghamdi\nThe primary goal of the current research is to determine the impact of dietary supplementation with quinoa seed powder (QSP) on hypercholesterolemia. More specifically, the study seeks to measure the effect of dietary supplementation with QSP on cholesterol levels, to determine if QSP use provides protection against hypercholesterolemia, in the selected population of male rats. Thirty-two male albino rats were fed a high cholesterol diet, and then fed fortified cake with different percentages (25, and 45%) of the QSP. These rats were put on an ideal diet for 14 days before being divided into four groups of eight rats each. The negative control group (Group 1) was fed a basal diet. The positive control group (Group 2), was fed a basal diet + 2% cholesterol to ensure the rats developed hypercholesterolemia. The first experimental group (Group 3) was fed the same high cholesterol diet as the second group, while adding 35% QSP to their diet, and the final experimental group (Group 4) was fed as the second group, with 45% QSP added to the diet. An experimental period of 60 days was established, after which the rats had their feed dishes removed, forcing an overnight fasting period, after which tissue samples were collected. In order to measure the total cholesterol and lipid profiles for each rat, aortic blood samples were collected. Also, the animals were tested for liver and kidney functions. Additionally, other nutritional parameters were recorded including food intake, weight gain or mass increase, and feed efficiency ratio. Finally, heart and liver were removed surgically for histopathological observation. From the obtained results, the researcher concluded that group of rats fed on diet with 2% cholesterol were at significantly increased risk for hypercholesterolemia. However, the results indicated that a diet fortified at 35% and 45% QSP improves weight gain and feed consumption, reduces lipid profiles, and reduces the risk to organ function, related to hypercholesterolemia, when compared to positive control group. More specifically, a diet with 45% QSP reduced the adverse effect of hypercholesterolemia.",

'A response to Peter Raabe' by D.R. Khashaba\nThe forthcoming Presidential election has focused minds of Americans, as well as people all over the world, on the question of race. Professor Mark Westmoreland from Neumann College, Pennsylvania offers some judicious insights into the historical role of philosophers in the genesis of the idea of race and racialism, as well as hope of solution through philosophical reflection on the nature of our common humanity.\nStereotyping comes in many forms and disguises. English speaking philosophers might be surprised (but why, exactly?) to find philosophers on the Indian subcontinent who keenly follow the analytic tradition and study the work of the European philosophers Frege, Russell and Wittgenstein. In a valuable summary of Bertrand Russell's contribution, Jahnabi Deka from Gauhati University, India explains why Russell's contribution is so important and why his influence is still felt today.\nI was not altogether surprised to receive a swift response from Daoud Khashaba to Peter Raabe's article in the last issue of Philosophy Pathways on 'Placebo Religion and Philosophy'. Khashaba cites the example of Kant as a philosopher whose writings present a tremendous challenge to the student. Goethe is said to have commented that reading Kant was like 'opening a door into a lighted room'. For the majority of us who have to struggle for understanding, that is one mighty heavy door.\nThe twenty-first century confronts us with at least two questions: How do we respond to the horrific events of the previous century, and how do we ensure that such atrocities do not occur again? Many prejudices have been incited by the implicit systemization of Race, or racialization. Moreover, can we today imagine the possibility of living in a harmonious world, a world of pluralism -- the idea that there is a multiplicity of incommensurable values expanding over various cultures? Commenting on our contemporary situation, F.M. Barnard writes:\nNot many social theorists today, it is true, share their\nnineteenth-century precursors faith in unilinear progress.\nYet, this does not seemingly prevent contemporary\nsociologists and economists from theorizing about political\ndevelopment as though progress in one direction -- for\nexample, in the possession of telephones or automobiles\n-- must necessarily correlate with the arrival of stable\ndemocracy.[1]\nIt appears that many academics, clergy, and laypersons struggle with reformulating their ideas of human progress, particularly in terms of Race. However, over the past few years, we have seen a resurgence of the idea of cultural cosmopolitanism amongst America's youth (although they are unaware of it). Perhaps it is best for us to go back a few centuries in hopes of understanding our historical situation. By tracing the origins of the idea of Race, we may be on firm ground to truly accept diversity and embrace pluralism, or cultural cosmopolitanism.[2] Working through four centuries of racial discourse can be tedious. I promise to make our journey as clear and straightforward as possible while not belittling the ideas of our predecessors.\nWhy should such a historical trace be of importance for us today? 'Historical change in the abstract sense,' G.W.F. Hegel (1770-1831) states, 'has long been interpreted in general terms as embodying some kind of progress towards a better and more perfect condition.'[3] In a similar tone, Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803) asks, 'For what other purpose would humans have joined together, but that thereby they might become more perfect, better, happier human beings?'[4] Furthermore, Hegel claims, 'In our understanding of world history, we are concerned with history primarily as a record of the past. But we are just as fully concerned with the present.'[5] We continue to witness this dilemma. No doubt, we must know our pasts in order to know who we are. However, how much do we impose of our present situation back onto our pasts? Let us reflect upon the historical origins of the idea of race in order to better understand the racialized world in which we live today.\nLet us ask ourselves a few basic questions regarding Race. How do we use the term Race? In other words, what do we mean when we say 'Race'? Do you belong to a Race? If so, to which one do you belong? Have you ever acted in a racist manner to another person? Have you ever been the object of racism?\nProbably all of us have an experience of Race. Let us ask a few more questions. Are there actually Races that exist? If so, are the groups we categorize as Races actually Races? For example, most Europeans understand Jews as being a particular Race. Most Americans understand Jews in terms of Ethnicity. And finally, is it possible that racialization, the experience of Race, and racism exist, but not Race itself? This final question should remain in the forefront of our minds for the rest of our investigation.\nLet us continue this reflection by looking into the history of the idea of race, an idea that was formed not too long ago. In the sixteenth century, European nations began to speedily expand their horizons. Trade, travel, and colonization made the world a little smaller. Explorers came into contact with more diverse people groups and began to keep travel journals documenting their perceptions of physical distinct people. Such travel journals became commonplace for the educated class, particularly the educated who themselves traveled the world.\nOne such traveler was the physician Francois Bernier (1620-1688), who first used the word Race in its modern context.[6] In 'A New Division of the Earth According to Different Species or Races of Men' (1684), Bernier remarks that 'Geographers up to this time have only divided the earth according to its different countries or regions.' This new division became manifest in terms of Race. While practicing medicine in India, Bernier came to the conclusion that human beings do not make up one Race, but rather a multitude of species. Despite his attempts for accuracy, Bernier failed to give a coherent definition of Race and continued to use species and race interchangeably.\nThis failure in giving Race a fixed meaning can also be found in the works of Isaac De La Peyrere (1596-1676), Francois-Marie Arouet De Voltaire (1694-1778), and Henry Home, Lord Kames (1696-1782). All three of these men argued for the notion of Polygenesis. In Prae-Adamite (1655), Peyrere claims that Adam and Eve were not the first human beings on earth and that gentiles existed prior to the life of Adamites (Jews). The conclusion of Peyrere and the other adherents to Polygenesis is that we have our origins in various local creations. We are without a single common ancestor, without a single common origin. This conclusion, however, did not keep hold among naturalists and the anthropologists to come later.\nThe Swedish naturalist, Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778), gave the first rigorous, scientific classification of human beings.[7] The 'Father of Modern Taxonomy' included human beings in the same classification system as plants and animals. He suggested that there were four basic varieties of human beings with each variety corresponding to a particular geographic location. Within each location, similar characteristics, qualities, and personalities were found. Only when one stepped outside of a particular location and looked upon all the varieties could one see the magnificent diversity of humans. However, Linnaeus's attempts left much to be desired. In striving to understand the archetype of the human species, he neglected to respect the human differences found within each of the four human varieties.\nThe last criticism was taken up by Count Georges-Louis Buffon (1707-1788). Buffon sought to bring order to human variety. Instead of classifying fixed, static varieties of human beings, Buffon offered a more genetic account of human variation. As a naturalist, he held that organisms change under environmental influence. In Natural History: General and Particular (1749), Buffon defines species as that which can continually reproduce generation to generation.[8] Buffon, like his predecessors, still lacked a consistent definition for Race and used the term rather ambiguously.\nWe have now reached the point in our investigation where Race receives its first scientific and systematic definition. The well-known philosopher Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) seemed to react quite strongly against the works of his predecessors. Living during the German Enlightenment, Kant saw the rise of Anthropology in the German academy. He was well-read regarding the various discussions of the idea of Race.\nKant's attempts to give a scientific account of Race are found first in his 'Of the Different Human Races' (1st. ed. 1775/ 2nd ed. 1777). In this text, Kant bases Race solely on skin color. In Section III, Kant expresses his understanding of seeds and predispositions, both of which lead to the formation of the various Races. If original humans had the potential to develop into one of four main Races, then their offspring (if they migrate) can actualize one of the seeds. The actualization of the seed is what Kant calls a natural predisposition. One's predisposition, leads to one of four actualizations. Once actualized, one cannot go back and actualize a different seed. Kant understands this theory of anthropological causation to lead to four races: (1) the white race; (2) the Negro race; (3) the Mongol race; and (4) the Hindu race. This classification of Races held sway for sociologists and anthropologists well into the early twentieth century. The Kantian systemization of the idea of Race has led those working in Race Theory to deem Kant 'The Father of the Idea of Race.'[9]\nThere are many others involved in the history of the idea of Race (Hegel in particular). For now, let us complete our reflection by turning to Herder, who was a student of Kant from 1762 to 1764. In the mid to late twentieth century, we witnessed a return to studies on Herder; this was best expressed in the works of Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997). Berlin thought that Herder's ideas on the concept of humanity, pluralism, and the futility of Race would aid us in avoiding the atrocities of the early twentieth century. These ideas are most clearly stated in Herder's Another Philosophy of History (1774) and Ideas on the Philosophy of the History of Humankind (1784-1791).\nHerder, rejecting the notion of Race, continually stresses the idea of peoples (whereas Kant held to a notion of race based on skin color). Unlike Kant, Herder argued that a culture held greater importance than geographical location. No one people is superior to another. Furthermore, no people is without culture and no culture is better than another. Cultures differ from one another, 'but these differences [are] of degree, not of kind.'[10] 'Overall and in the end,' writes Herder, 'everything is only a shade of one and the same great portrait that extends across all the spaces and times of the earth.'[11] All peoples contribute to humankind and encourage the progression toward humanity, 'not as straight, nor as uniform, but as stretching in all directions, will all manner of turns and twists.'[12] Moreover, as Herder writes, 'Every nation has its center of happiness within itself, as every ball has its center of gravity!'[13] In other words, Herder was interested in the internal and external influences on a culture and emphasized the individuality of a given culture.\nFor Herder, humanity remains an immature potential within all human beings and needs to be developed over time. Herder states, 'All your questions concerning the progress of our species, which really would call for a book in response, are answered, it seems to me, by one word, humanity, to be human.'[14] The goal of history, for Herder, is for each individual to become truly human, living a full life. 'Perfection in an individual human being,' Herder writes, 'is found in that he, in the course of his existence, be himself and continue to become himself.'[15] Such development concretizes in the perfection of humankind and the harmonization (plurality) of cultures so that 'we are friends to all men and citizens of the world.'[16]\nAccording to Herder, we should empathize with each culture from the point of view of the respective peoples. A culture should be evaluated based on its own terms by its own values. Even within a given culture, one should seek to grasp the culture in terms of the specific stage of development in which it exists at a given point. This, however, was the exact thing that philosophers in the Enlightenment (and earlier) failed to do. Their ethnocentrism corrupted the possibility for them to study any other culture on its own terms. Unfortunately, many seem to be continuing this tradition.\nHopefully this reflection will cause a few of us to rethink the idea of Race. In the twenty-first century, our denial of the existence of racial categorization is the first step in embracing human difference and pluralism. We may not be able to have a perfect world, but we can strive for a harmonious pluralistic world in which every culture is equal, understood, and appreciated. If there exists any such characteristic as perfection, perhaps Herder's Humanitat is such a thing. The first step in achieving this would be to rid ourselves of thinking that Race exists. Yes, the idea of Race exists, the experience of Race exists, a racialized world exists. But, Race itself does not; it is only an idea brought about during a time in world history when human difference was first realized on a global scale. We shall conclude with a thought from Herder:\nPerfectibility, therefore, is not a deception; it is the\nmeans and final end to all that is called for and made\npossible by the character of our kind, by our humanity.'[17]\n1.

'THE ROLE OF LOGIC IN PHILOSOPHY: AN APPRAISAL OF BERTRAND RUSSELL'S STANDPOINT' BY JAHNABI DEKA\nThe history of philosophy through the different stages of its development clearly shows the pivotal role played by logic. 'Logic and philosophy' is not an arbitrary combination of two different words, rather it is the case that logic is what Russell called the 'essence' of philosophy. That is, philosophy in its multifarious faces in the hands of different philosophers is always shaped by some specific logic. This relationship was sought in order to be viewed from the analytic standpoint by the famous British philosopher and mathematician Bertrand Russell, who took up the project of showing that modern logic forms the cornerstone of philosophy. Thus Russell focused on a novel project, not discoverable in any philosopher earlier to him.\nRussell was in the forefront of the new criticism of the Hegelian system. The chief target of Russell and G.E. Moore, another pioneer of analytic philosophy, right from the beginning of their philosophic careers, was to attack the monistic heart of the Hegelian idealism. Russell while criticizing Hegel's monism simultaneously developed a philosophical system which is pluralistic in nature. This pluralistic character of his philosophy is the consequence of Russell's relentless endeavour to put philosophy on a sound platform of logic:\n'It is in logic that we have a glimpse of the inner\nstructure of thought which itself is expressed in language.[1]\nLogic provides the foundation to our thought process and the product of this process is expressed in language. Logic thus imparts consistency to every possible sphere of thinking. Philosophical discourse as well depends for its consistency on logic. Logic concerns itself with reality not like empirical sciences, because logic presents the general structure of the world in its formal language. By contrast, empirical sciences seek to describe the world and also explain it with reference to its physical causes and conditions. Aristotle took logic as an instrument for description of the essential structure of the world and reality. Aristotle's metaphysical theories -- for example, that the world consists of substances, their attributes and their relations to the substances etc. -- are built upon logic.\nLogic came to acquire its glory as a distinct discipline after Aristotle. In his six early works, viz, Categories, On Interpretation, Prior Analytics, Posterior Analytics, Topics and Sophistical Refutations, collectively known as the Organon, Aristotle developed a complete system of logic. And this system of logic was so exhaustive, so wide in its scope that logic was thought to be a finished discipline for the next two thousand years or so. Especially his Prior Analytics that dealt with syllogistic reasoning continued to overwhelm philosophical thinking until the turn of the twentieth century. In fact it is the same Aristotelian absolutism with Platonic reservations that is repeated in diverse forms in the hands of the scholastic and medieval philosophers.\nAristotle's syllogism is axiomatic in nature. A syllogism has three 'propositions' (declarative sentences that can be either true or false) one of which 'follows' with logical necessity from the joint consideration of the other two. The one that follows is called the 'conclusion' while the other two are called 'premises'. It is characteristic of a syllogism that the conclusion cannot include anything that is not said in the premises; the latter being of a more general nature than the conclusion. Yet the conclusion is treated as a new derivation. This has the implication that the premises are known before hand; that is, our knowledge of the general is primary to that of the particular.\nA syllogism starts with a major premise which is universal in nature (e.g. all philosophers are intellectuals). When pressed, how do we come to know the truth of the major premise, the answer is that it again is the conclusion of a higher order syllogism (e.g. all knowledgeable persons are intellectuals, all philosophers are knowledgeable persons, therefore all philosophers are intellectuals). The process goes on hierarchically upward till we reach the self evident primary premises. These primary premises are not capable of any further syllogistic demonstration. They are known by the direct grasp of the mind (nous).\nIt is obvious how this syllogistic logic has shaped Aristotelian metaphysics. In his early writings Aristotle distinguished between 'form' and 'matter' and maintained that this distinction is only logical and that one cannot exist independent of the other. But afterwards in his metaphysics, he goes to alter his view to the effect that form can and does exist independent of matter. In his Categories Aristotle regarded concrete individual things and beings ('Socrates' as distinct from 'man') as primary substances. But later in Metaphysics he treats these concrete individuals as combinations of matter and form, and goes to assign primacy to form alone.\nBertrand Russell along with Whitehead and others came forward with a new 'logic' to unearth the loopholes involved in Aristotelian logic. Russell examined the influence of Aristotelian logic upon many philosophers and brought to light the fact that these philosophers shaped their philosophy in accordance with the Aristotelian model of logic. In his celebrated essay 'Logic as the Essence of Philosophy', Russell claimed that Aristotelian logic is a 'trivial nonsense', a scholastic collection of technical terms and rules of syllogistic inference. Western metaphysics is a direct result of the Aristotelian conception of subject-predicate logic in which we have to posit a subject term as fundamental. Hegel, as Russell points out, although he started with a critical attitude toward Aristotle's logic, could not help being influenced by Aristotle, with the result that he came to believe that if every proposition ascribes a predicate to a subject, then there can be only one subject, namely the Absolute. This point is directly based on the Aristotelian belief in the universality of the subject-predicate form.\nAgain, the Hegelian confusion between the 'is' of predication and the 'is' of identity became an object of criticism for Russell. Hegel's example of the sentences 'Socrates is mortal' and 'Socrates is the philosopher who drank the hemlock' depicts this confusion. Hegel asserted that in the second sentence, 'Socrates is a philosopher who drank the hemlock', the copula 'is' expresses a relation of identity between the subject and the predicate. So he argued that it should be the same relation with regard to the first sentence also, i.e. 'Socrates is mortal'. The copula 'is' is supposed to express the relation of identity in both the cases. But this cannot be the case as 'Socrates' is particular and 'mortal' is universal. To say 'particular is the universal' is self-contradictory. Yet in spite of this obvious contradiction, Hegel did not suspect the legitimacy of his logic, but proceeded to synthesize particular and universal in the individual and tried to justify his position by his theory of the 'concrete universal', according to which subject and predicate exhibit 'identity-in-difference', or 'unity-in-plurality'.\nIn Spinoza also we find that substance is the reality and its innumerable attributes make up the infinite nature of reality. His theory reflects the assumption that reality is expressible only in a language having subject-predicate form.\nAgain traditional logic does not make any distinction between the two propositions, 'Socrates is mortal' and 'All men are mortal'. Both these statements were regarded as 'A' propositions. But modern logic points out that there is a gulf of difference between the two. The former is a singular proposition while the latter is a general proposition. The logical grammar of the two is completely different from each other. Aristotle and his followers failed to take notice of the difference and took both the propositions to be of the same class. Frege and Peano long after Aristotle pointed out the distinction between the two.\nAristotelian logic is deficient in many other points. One such important deficiency is that it does not recognize the reality of relations. The subject-predicate form being the only form of propositions, all other propositions including relational ones are to be converted to that form. But Russell points out that it is not possible to convert all relational propositions to subject-predicate form. In 'A is older than B', this proposition cannot be interpreted as A's possessing the quality of being older than B; rather does it express a relation between two individuals A and B. This recognition of the reality of relations has the further import of recognizing the reality of a multiplicity of subjects instead of one. Aristotelian logic with its denial of the reality of relations ends with only one subject -- the Absolute.\nThe Leibnizian thesis that the reality is a plurality of monads, which could be derived from the logic of multiplicity of independent terms, is built upon the basis of the logic of terms and propositions. In his paper 'Logic and Philosophy,' L.C. Mulatti gives a lucid presentation of the influence of logic on Leibniz's philosophy. He writes:\n'Did not the structure of Leibniz's metaphysics, for\nexample, spring from his logical doctrine? Particularly,\nhis conception of the monad as a substance, which contains\nall its states within itself and whose history consists\nmerely in a gradual unfoldment of these states, is derived,\nit is claimed, from his logical theory that all propositions\nhave one and the same logical form which consists in\nassigning a predicate to a subject -- a theory which he\nshared with all traditional logicians, including\nAristotle.'[2]\nAt this point it may be observed that Leibniz's metaphysics is the result of two opposite logics. Leibniz had a programme of replacing Aristotelian logic, which he thought to be grossly mistaken, with a new logic of his own. However, his profound regard for Aristotle deterred him from executing his plan. Still unsatisfied, Leibniz introduced pluralism into his metaphysics. Reality is not one, but a multiplicity of monads. But among these monads he had to deny any relation as it would go against the Aristotelian teaching. The monads were therefore left to themselves as self-contained, 'windowless'.\nNow, we shall turn to Russell's endeavour to nurture his philosophy basing it on a sound logical platform. To justify Russell's attempt, we must take up his theory of definite descriptions, his philosophy of logical atomism and theory of types.\nRussell's theory of descriptions was most clearly expressed in his 1905 essay 'On Denoting', published in Mind. Russell's theory is about the logical form of expressions involving denoting phrases, which he divides into three groups:\n1. Denoting phrases which do not denote anything, for\nexample 'the present King of France'.\n2. Phrases which denote one definite object, for example\n'the present King of England' (Edward VII at the time\nRussell was writing). We need not know which object the\nphrase refers to for it to be unambiguous, for example 'the\ntallest spy' is a unique individual but his or her actual\nidentity is unknown).\n3. Phrases which denote ambiguously, for example, 'a man'.\nDefinite descriptions involve Russell's second group of denoting phrases, and indefinite descriptions involve Russell's third group. Propositions containing descriptions typically appear to be of the standard subject-predicate form. Russell proposed his theory of descriptions in order to solve several problems in the philosophy of language. The two major problems are of (a) co-referring expressions and (b) non-referring expressions.\nThe problem of co-referring expressions originated primarily with Gottlob Frege as the problem of informative identities. For example, if the morning star and the evening star are the same planet in the sky (indeed they are), how is it that someone can think that the morning star rises in the morning but the evening star does not? That is, someone might find it surprising that the two names refer to the same thing (i.e. the identity is informative). This is apparently problematic because although the two expressions seem to denote the same thing, one cannot substitute one for the other, which one ought to be able to do with identical or synonymous expressions.\nThe problem of non-referring expressions is that certain expressions that are meaningful do not seem to refer to anything. For example, by 'any man is good ' we have not identified a particular individual, namely any man, that has the property of being good (similar considerations go for 'some man', 'every man', 'a man', and so on). Likewise, by 'the present King of France is bald' we have not identified some individual, namely the present King of France, who has the property of being bald (France is no longer a monarchy, so there is currently no King of France).\nThus, what Russell wants to avoid is admitting mysterious non-existent entities into his ontology. Furthermore, the law of excluded middle requires that one of the following propositions, for example, must be true: either 'the present King of France is bald' or 'it is not the case that the present King of France is bald'. Normally, propositions of the subject-predicate form are said to be true if and only if the subject is in the extension of the predicate. But, there is currently no King of France. So, since the subject does not exist, it is not in the extension of either predicate (it is not on the list of bald people or non-bald people). Thus, it appears that this is a case in which the law of excluded middle is violated, which is also an indication that something has gone wrong.\nRussell offers the analysis: 'there is one and only one x such that x is the present King of France and x is bald.' According to this analysis, both statements about the present King of France can be false, without violating the law of excluded middle.\nRussell did not consider metaphysical assumptions as a prerequisite to his logical doctrine. His first suggestion of logical atomism was:\n'I shall try to set forth... a certain kind of logical\ndoctrine and on the basis of this a certain kind of\nmetaphysics.'[3]\nHe generalizes this approach to metaphysics in his famous article Logical Atomism in 1924 as follows:\n'Logic is what is fundamental in philosophy... schools\nshould be characterized rather by their logic than by\ntheir metaphysic.[4]\nMetaphysically, logical atomism is the view that the world consists in a plurality of independent and discrete entities, which by coming together form facts. According to Russell, a fact is a kind of complex, and depends for its existence on the simpler entities making it up. The simplest sort of complex, an atomic fact, was thought to consist either of a single individual exhibiting a simple quality, or of multiple individuals standing in a simple relation.\nThe methodological and metaphysical elements of logical atomism come together in postulating the theoretical, if not the practical, realizability of a fully analyzed language, in which all truths could in principle be expressed in a perspicuous manner. Such a 'logically ideal language', as Russell at times called it, would, besides logical constants, consist only of words representing the constituents of atomic facts.\nIn such a language, the simplest sort of complete sentence would be what Russell called an 'atomic proposition', containing a single predicate or verb representing a quality or relation along with the appropriate number of proper names, each representing an individual. The truth or falsity of an atomic proposition would depend entirely on a corresponding atomic fact. The other sentences of such a language would be derived either by combining atomic propositions using truth-functional connectives, yielding molecular propositions, or by replacing constituents of a simpler proposition by variables, and prefixing a universal or existential quantifier, resulting in general and existential propositions.\nIn 'On the Relations of Universals and Particulars' (1911), Russell used logical arguments to resolve the ancient problems of universals. Ordinary language certainly permits the attribution of a common predicate to more than one subject: 'a is P' and 'b is P' may both be true. If only particular things exist, then a and b would be distinct, featureless beings whose likeness with respect to P could only be understood as a shared -- and hence universal -- property. If only universal things exist, then P would exist in two places at once, which would fail to account for the distinctness of a and b. Thus, Russell argued, both universals and bare particulars exist; only a robust realism can explain both the sameness and the diversity that we observe in ordinary experience.\nMore generally, Russell's lectures on Our Knowledge of the External World (1914) and Logical Atomism (1918) offered a comprehensive view of reality and our knowledge of it. As an empiricist, Russell assumed that all human knowledge must begin with sensory experience. Sense-data provide the primitive content of our experience, and for Russell, these sense-data are not merely mental events, but rather the physical effects caused in us by external objects. Although each occurs immediately within the private space of an individual perceiver, he argued, classes of similar sense-data in various perceivers constitute a public space from which even unperceived (though in principle perceivable) sensibilia may be said to occur. Thus, the contents of sensory experience are both public and objective.\nFrom this beginning, according to Russell, all else follows by logical analysis. Simple observations involving sense-data, such as 'This patch is now green,' are the atomic facts upon which all human knowledge is grounded. What we ordinarily call physical objects are definite descriptions constructed logically out of just such epistemic atoms. As Russell claimed in the fifth chapter of The Problems of Philosophy (1912),\n'Every proposition which we can understand must be composed\nwholly of constituents with which we are acquainted.'[5]\nCareful application of this principle, together with the techniques of logical analysis, accounts for everything we can know either by acquaintance or by description.\nModern logic is thus in Russell's philosophy has got the status of a tool in philosophical analysis. By following the Russellian tool of analysis we can conclude that what can be known by acquaintance is certain, whereas what can be known by description is inferred and problematic. Russell's motto by following which we may be able to reach the certainty is a version of Occam's razor:\n'Whenever possible, substitute constructions out of known\nentities for inferences to unknown entities.'\nRussell's logical atomism, in spite of facing severe attacks from different quarters, is capable of making a demarcation between the pluralistic system of thought and monistic systems. Russell's attempt to provide a logical foundation to philosophy contrary to the traditional philosophers thus proved to have long-lasting influence. Russell's philosophical realism has been no less influential. As a result, modern logic has become scientific and imparts this scientific spirit both to philosophy and to other branches of the sciences.\n1. Pradhan, R.

'A RESPONSE TO PETER RAABE' BY DAOUD KHASHABA\nI have read with much interest and with something like trepidation the article of Professor Raabe in Issue number 135 of Philosophy Pathways. While I find myself in full agreement with what Professor Raabe says about placebo religion and placebo philosophy, I thought his presentation poses a challenge to a position I have repeatedly put forward. For I maintain that a philosophical statement is and must necessarily be open to diverse interpretations.\nHow then are we to distinguish between genuine philosophy and what Raabe aptly calls placebo philosophy? Before I go grope about for an answer to this question, I will briefly comment on another point that I find challenging. While debunking placebo religion Raabe asserts that 'there is no evidence that there is an 'absolute Truth'.' I will leave aside the question of whether there is or there is not such a thing as 'absolute Truth'. The answer to this question cannot be a simple yes or no: it depends on what we mean by absolute Truth. What I wish to comment on is the assertion that there is no evidence that there is such a thing. In my view, evidence relates solely to the realm of empirical facts. Philosophical positions are not amenable to empirical verification and hence the notion of evidence is simply of no relevance in this area.\nI go back to the question about how to distinguish between genuine and fake philosophy, especially for one who holds, as I do, that philosophical statements will necessarily be open to different interpretations. There is no simple answer to this question. It is comparable to the question how to distinguish between genuine and fake art, given that aesthetic judgment is essentially subjective. Professor Raabe goes a long way towards providing a practical -- if not a theoretical -- answer in his baring of the pranks of placebo religion and placebo philosophy and in his sagacious concluding paragraph.\nI confess that I have taken Raabe's adverse reference to Heidegger with something like Schadenfreude, but rather than speaking of Heidegger, I will just say that it should be possible to tell the difference between intentionally mystifying charlatanry and honest difficulty. Examples of the latter are to be found in the works of Spinoza and Kant. The difficulty there stems mainly from the complexity of the system expounded. The body of the work is clear to anyone willing to make the necessary effort. But it must also be admitted that in the case of both Spinoza and Kant the difficulty is increased by the fact that neither of these great thinkers was endowed with the talent for good writing.\nA Plato dialogue, like a Wordsworth poem, is simple and clear, yet profound, rich, pregnant with inexhaustible meaning. The suggestiveness of both Plato's and Wordsworth's works, which inspires different insights in different readers, has nothing of the arcane or esoteric about it.\nLet me add a final comment. I think that we cannot confine philosophy to meaningful 'discourse on everyday questions and issues'. If we try to get below the surface of 'everyday questions and issues' and examine the underlying principles and values involved, we inevitably find ourselves confronted with metaphysical questions.",

        "title": "How to Capture Video of a Live Keynote Speech",
        "raw_content": "How to Capture Video of a Live Keynote Speech\nby Cindy Burgess 25 Oct 2016\nDifficulty:BeginnerLength:MediumLanguages: English\u0411\u044a\u043b\u0433\u0430\u0440\u0441\u043a\u0438Bahasa Indonesia\nVideo ProductionVideoPre-ProductionEvents\nCapturing video of a live presentation can be stressful, even for seasoned videographers. After all, there are no do-overs: you have just one chance to record crisp, well-composed shots of the speaker and audience and\u2014even more importantly\u2014clear, interference-free sound. Talk about pressure!\nFortunately, there are steps you can take to reduce the risk of something going wrong and lower your blood pressure in the process. It all begins with proper planning.\nEvery video project begins with pre-production, and capturing video of a keynote speech is no exception. The most important thing to do first is to find out the content of the speech and how the finished video will be used. These details will determine what kind of camera equipment and crew you need to do the job (budget plays a role as well).\nFor example, the client may want a shorter, edited version of the speech to share online. This means bringing two video cameras: one to record the speaker, and the other to get cutaways of the audience or a second angle of the speaker to cover your edit points. Or the speaker may plan to use slides, in which case you\u2019ll want a second camera to record the screen as a reference and a digital copy of the slide presentation for editing purposes.\nOnce you\u2019ve determined what the final video will look like, it\u2019s time to plan your shoot.\nThere\u2019s a wise saying about digital backups: \u201cTwo is one and one is none.\u201d In the world of technology, glitches and hard drive failures happen\u2014having only one copy of crucial data isn\u2019t enough. Same goes for capturing video of a live presentation.\nNeed two video cameras to record the speech? Bring three. Need only one wireless microphone? Bring two. You get the idea. You must bring extras of all your essential gear\u2014even if it's working perfectly. Murphy\u2019s Law exists for a reason!\nPhoto by Dustin Kirkpatrick/Unsplash\nWhen packing your kit bag, be sure to include:\nextra camera batteries and a charger\nextra AA batteries for microphones\nextra media cards (always take more than you think you\u2019ll need)\nheadphones for monitoring audio\nXLR cables for connecting to the sound board\ntripod(s)\nThese are the basics. Depending on the length and complexity of the shoot, you may need other gear as well. Don\u2019t stress if you don't own a particular piece of equipment or have enough cameras\u2014you can always rent what you need or even borrow from a friend. Just make sure you know how to operate it: the event itself is not the place to figure it out! Be sure to charge and test every piece of equipment the day/night before the shoot.\nNext, it\u2019s time for a little recon of the speech location. Ideally, you should visit the venue in person to check out the room beforehand. If that\u2019s not possible or practical, call the venue directly. Ask lots of questions, including:\nwhere will the stage be located?\nwill there be a raised platform or designated area for cameras on tripods?\nwill the speaker be using a microphone attached to a podium, or be wearing a wireless lavaliere microphone?\nwill there be a sound board that you can plug into for audio?\nwhere are the electrical outlets located?\nVenue for a keynote speech (Photo by Cindy Burgess)\nMany large venues like convention centres have websites where you can view floor plans of their rooms. This is also a good place to find information about where to park and which entrance/exit is closest. Map out directions to the location in advance and make sure you leave plenty of time to get there.\n3. Get the Schedule of Events\nFinally, contact the event organizer to get a copy of the schedule or rundown. It\u2019s not enough to simply know when the keynote speech is supposed to start. It also helps to know what\u2019s scheduled to happen before and after the speech, because it could be an opportunity for you to get additional b-roll like wide and tight shots of the audience. If the schedule of events isn\u2019t available in advance, be sure to ask for it as soon as you arrive.\nSet Up and Record\nAlright, on to the big event itself. You should arrive several hours early so you have lots of time to set up and test your equipment. Check in with the event organizer to get an updated copy of the schedule of events (even if you have one, there may have been last minute changes) and find out if there's a spot in the room designated for video cameras.\nIf you haven\u2019t been to the venue before, do a quick walkabout. Make note of everything from the lighting on stage to where the speaker will be standing to where the electrical outlets are located. Where\u2019s the best place for you to set up your tripod? Where are the best spots to capture cutaways? Where are the washrooms? (hey, it could be a long day\u2026).\nClean Audio is Everything\nIf there\u2019s an audio-visual (AV) team on site handling the sound (and there usually is in big venues), find out who\u2019s in charge. This AV expert is your new best friend! He or she will be able to recommend the best way for you to capture clean sound, depending on their setup and your particular gear. In most cases, you\u2019ll want an audio feed directly from the sound board by way of an XLR cable attached either to your video camera or to a wireless transmitter.\nSound board (Photo by Cindy Burgess)\nThis is your primary source of sound. But you need to have a backup, because bad or non-existent audio means no video of a keynote speech! Again, depending on the setup, you may be able to attach your second microphone to the podium or even to the person who will be speaking.\nBe sure to test and adjust your audio levels well before the event starts. The AV team on site will be doing sound checks of their own, so this is a good time to test your microphones to make sure you have a good audio feed.\nWhere to Place the Video Camera(s)\nNow let\u2019s look at camera placement. If there isn\u2019t a designated spot for video cameras, set up your tripod near the back of the room. This will give you a nice wide shot of the stage and the most flexibility when it comes to framing the person speaking. It also reduces the risk of someone in the audience bumping into your tripod or walking in front of the camera.\nA designated area for video cameras at a speech venue (Photo by Cindy Burgess)\nThis is your primary video camera, or A camera. It\u2019s going to be locked off on the tripod to record the whole speech from beginning to end. There are no hard and fast rules about how you frame the shot, but here are a couple of things to consider:\nIf the speaker is planning to use a slide presentation, do not try to capture a wide shot of the whole stage. The screen will be very bright and chances are good that the speaker will stand off to the side in the dark. You\u2019ll have a heck of a time trying to achieve the correct exposure. And whatever you do, don\u2019t pan back and forth between the speaker and the screen\u2014this is impossible to edit!\nInstead, frame a medium shot of the person speaking, without the screen in it. Set up a second camera to record the slide presentation for use as a reference. Get a digital copy of the slide presentation to add later during editing.\nA speaker who stands behind a podium is easy to record. But those who walk around the stage during their speech can be tricky. If you\u2019re framed on a medium shot or tighter, you\u2019re going to have to follow them with the camera. This is challenging to do smoothly, especially if you\u2019re zoomed in from the back of the room.\nTip: Leave the camera on a wide shot of the stage. You can always record some closer shots with a second video camera.\nHow (and When) to Capture Cutaways\nYour second camera, or B camera, is used to capture cutaway shots (what\u2019s known as B-roll) while the speech is going on. I recommend shooting handheld, because you\u2019ll be able to move quickly around the room with the least amount of disruption. Here are some suggestions for cutaway shots:\nAnother option is to set up the B cam on a second tripod, and frame a tighter shot of the speaker from a different angle. You can then cut back and forth between the A cam and the B cam during editing.\nIf you have only one video camera, you won\u2019t be able to record the speech and cutaways at the same time (nor should you even try). Instead, take a look at the schedule. Is there a welcoming address? At the very least, someone will be introducing the keynote speaker and giving details of their background. This is your chance to get a couple of quick cutaways of the audience. But you\u2019ve got to be fast\u2014you need to get the video camera back on the tripod by the time the speech starts.\nFinally, resist the urge to zoom in and out while operating the A cam during the speech. Zooms are challenging to do well, and lengthy zooms could pose problems in post-production (editors try not to cut into or out of a shot while the camera is in motion). \u00adA little variety in framing is fine\u2014just keep your camera moves to a minimum and try to re-frame during a pause in speaking or a round of applause.\nSo there you have it\u2014you now know how to prepare for and capture video of a keynote speech! Follow these steps and you\u2019ll be calm and collected at your next event, and there won\u2019t be many situations you can\u2019t handle with ease and professionalism.\nVideo Business to Business: How to Work With Outsourcers\nHow to Make Cinematic Shots With a Telephoto Lens",

        "title": "The C. Bechstein Sphinx Grand Piano In Mahogany and Gold",
        "raw_content": "There\u2019s a church in Dresden called Frauenkirche (translated \u201cChurch of our Lady\u201d) which was bombed on February 15th, 1945 during WWII. The church sat in ruins for 50 years until the reunification of Germany. But in 1989, a 14 member group under the leadership of a musician named Ludwig G\u00fcttler formed the Citizen\u2019s Initiative for the reconstruction of the church. This grew into more than 5000 members, spanning more than 20 countries. The church was finally completed in 2005 and stands as a memorial to the world as a collaborative project of art, archaeology, faith and unification.\nOne of the teams involved in some of the more detailed aspects of carvings within the church were employed recently by Bechstein in a spectacular million dollar piano reproduction of another kind. In 1886, Bechstein had made a one-of-a-kind piano for an exhibition in London called the Sphinx. Similar to the story of the Dresden church where the reproduction was based on photographs, all that remained of the Bechstein instrument was a single image. Bechstein decided to remake a present day version of this 130 year old original.\nThe features of the grand are similar to any world class C.Bechstein: the cabinet contains the feathered lines of pyramid mahogany, ciresa spruce soundboard, beech and mahogany rim, Renner action and hammers, with a traditional sand-cast iron plate. But what sets apart this piano is the cabinetry finesse involving a process called \u201clost wax\u201d. This is more specifically where the team from the Frauenkirche comes in. Decorative elements are first carved out of wood and \u201cdry-fit\u201d meaning that they ensure that the parts will fit correctly after they become cast in bronze. The sculptured wooden parts then become the model from which a master mould is made. Wax is used to make models of the various pieces and when the bronze is cast, the wax evaporates through a process called metal-chasing.\nThe once carved wooden pieces are now identical replications in bronze. But Bechstein didn\u2019t stop here. The pieces were then fire gilded with gold. Once they are heat-treated, the gold pieces turn a dull yellow. The vibrant gold only reappears through polishing by hand and through the use of polishing stones. After 32 months and 1800 work hours later, the Sphinx was unveiled.\nAppropriately named, the Sphinx is a Greek mythical creature that represents mystery and wisdom. Truly, this piece by Bechstein reveals their manufacturing prowess, their wisdom of 163 years (est. in 1853) and their ability to continue to amaze the world with their artistic flair.\nThe Price for this magical piece? 1 Million Euro (Approximately $1.12 million US dollars)\nFor more information on the piano, you can download the full pdf.\nTo see the Sphinx being played, watch the video on YouTube.\nThe full line of C.Bechstein pianos can be viewed on Piano Price Point\nPiano News\tBechstein, bronze, carving, casting, Frauenkirche, gold, Grand, hammers, lost wax, metal chasing, piano, plate, polishing, pyramid mahogany, Renner, sand cast iron, Sphinx",

        "raw_content": "February 12, 2018 August 30, 2018 / Claire\nI\u2019ve officially lived in France for one week! Most of that week passed in a fog of jet lag, but I think I\u2019ve finally adjusted\u2014although, funnily enough, until last night I thought that Paris was five hours ahead of Boston. Turns out, it\u2019s six. Who knew?! Good thing I didn\u2019t try to call you in the morning, Mom!\nOkay, so now that the proverbial dust has settled, I figured I should back this story up a step and provide a little more context. Like, what are we doing in Paris anyway?\nOne guess \u2013 and it would be a good one \u2013 is that we\u2019re fleeing the every-man-for-himself politics of the U.S. for a place with a stronger sense of social welfare. But this trip has actually been in the works for about two years. Colin began collaborating with a researcher here in Paris for his PhD field work in Greece, so when he began his post-doc, the plan was always to do two years at Harvard and one year in Paris.\nOkay, cool, but what will Colin actually be doing in Paris?\nThat is an excellent question that I\u2019m totally unqualified to answer. His research focuses on evolution and adaptation in lizards, which are a convenient study species both because they are small, not-dangerous carnivores and, perhaps more importantly, because they only come out on warm, sunny days, waking up around 9:00 and going to bed by 4:00, in plenty of time for researchers to make it to happy hour. Colin\u2019s PhD involved lizards in Greece, which are different from the lizards we have in the U.S., so this year in Paris will get him back to working on his original species. Also: as Colin pointed out in his own blog post on the subject, he has a year\u2019s worth of data to write up and publish, and what better place to sit and write than a Paris caf\u00e9?\nBut isn\u2019t Paris expensive? That\u2019s a long way to go for a coffeeshop.\nOui, Paris is tr\u00e8s expensive. You know where is even more expensive? Cambridge, Massachusetts. Bread, cheese, wine, and coffee are cheap here. And we are paying in rent less than two-thirds of what we paid in Cambridge.\nBut your apartment is tiny.\nThat\u2019s a forthcoming post of its own! We have an amazing apartment right in the heart of Le Marais, the Parisian neighborhood known for its Jewish, LGBT, and artist communities, but yes, it\u2019s TINY. It\u2019s 18 square meters, or about 194 square feet. I was super wary before we got here, but now that we\u2019re here, I adore it and am definitely a tiny house convert. I promise I\u2019ll get into all the details of life in less than 200 square feet because if you\u2019re anything like me, you probably have a million questions. Like, how many clothes can you fit in a tiny apartment? How often do you do laundry? What\u2019s in your fridge? What would you change if you could? (And\u2014is it annoying as heck to live in such close quarters with another person? I can\u2019t definitively answer that after only one week, but luckily the answer so far seems to be no.)\nAnd what will you be doing?\nMy own career in environmental policy is on hold while we\u2019re in France, so I\u2019m embracing the fun-employed life. This blog is one of my big projects, and the other is learning manual photography\u2014you can expect to see a bunch of my shots on this site! I\u2019ll also be tagging along with Colin on his research trips, trying my best to be helpful. I\u2019m so, so grateful to have the opportunity and ability to take the year off. It\u2019s truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.\nCan I come visit?\nOui, but you may have to sleep standing up.\nTiny House, Uncategorized\nApartment, Fieldwork, Moving, Paris\nOne thought on \u201cLet\u2019s back it up a step\u2026\u201d\nIt would never be too early to hear from you, Claire!",

        "raw_content": "\"A New Beginning,\" is a framed giclee print on canvas by Howard Terpning. The image depicts a romantic scene of two young Native American people on horseback.\n\u201cHoward Terpning said that this is the first time he has painted a picture that has somewhat of a romantic theme. Romance among young American Indian people was just as important as with any cultural group. So, why not do a painting that depicts the love that is shared by the two people in the scene. The setting happens to be in Montana, but it could be almost anywhere in the Northern Plains.

        "raw_content": "When is a contract a contract? In a recent case, the Appellate Division of the New Jersey Superior Court considered three possibilities.\nThe case involved the sale of a parcel of vacant land. The seller drafted a real estate contract, and sent it to the buyer, Coddington Communities, LLC, a limited liability company with two members, John Sims and Sam Gershwin. Sims marked up the agreement, and sent it back to the seller with his comments and questions on certain provisions in the agreement. The seller revised the agreement, signed it and sent it back to Coddington.\nSims signed the revised agreement on January 14, 2016; Gershwin signed on February 16, 2016.\nThe agreement provided a 120-day due diligence period to enable Coddington to investigate the suitability of the property for its project. The agreement also contained a provision requiring Coddington to pay a deposit upon execution of the agreement, which Coddington did. During the due diligence period, Coddington had the right to terminate the agreement for any reason.\nAfter completing its due diligence, Sims notified the seller that the property was, for environmental reasons, not suitable for development, and that Coddington was terminating the agreement. The seller refused to return a portion of the deposit that was used by the seller to pay taxes and maintenance costs. Coddington sued for return of the entire deposit.\nThe issue before the court was when did the agreement between the buyer and the seller become a binding contract? The answer to that question would determine whether Coddington terminated the agreement within the 120-day window allowed by the agreement.\nThe seller argued that the 120-day period began when he circulated the first draft. The court squashed that suggestion, noting that the draft lacked key provisions and was not signed by any of the parties, and was therefore ineffective to bind the parties. The seller advanced an alternative argument that the agreement was effective when it was signed by Sims because his signature bound Gershwin as well.\nThe answer? The appellate court affirmed the trial judge, who found that the agreement became effective when the final signature, by Gershwin, was added to the agreement. The trial judge found, and the appellate court agreed, that signature by Sims alone was not sufficient to bind Gershwin, and, therefore, Coddington, because Sims and Gershwin had formed a limited liability company, not a partnership, and had not held themselves out as having the power to bind the LLC or each other as individuals.\nWhat seems simple is often not, and a clear understanding and application of contract principles will save time, money and brain cells.

        "title": "French Quarter's Finest | Preservation Resource Center of New Orleans",
        "raw_content": "French Quarter\u2019s Finest\nIn The News, November 2016, Preservation in Print\nIt was 11 o\u2019clock at night in late August 2014 when David Hecht first laid eyes on the historic May & Ellis building. The structure \u2014 the largest on the block \u2014 had been vacant 12 years, and few other buildings on that stretch of Chartres, between Iberville and Bienville streets, had occupants. \u201cIt was pitch black,\u2019 Hecht said. \u201cThe block was just dead. But I could still see that the building was beautiful.\u201d\nHecht, an architect and real estate developer, had just flown into New Orleans that night for a reconnaissance trip to scope out properties for potential development projects. Though not a native, Hecht has family in New Orleans and grew up visiting the city; his uncle, a local architect, helped him develop a deep appreciation for New Orleans\u2019 historic structures from a young age. He had long been keen on doing a real estate project in the city, and was due to walk through the May & Ellis building, along with other prospects, the next day. But that August night, on the quiet block in the French Quarter, Hecht was already taken by the building\u2019s Classical fa\u00e7ade, and its fantastic location. \u201cAt that point I was like, I really want this,\u201d he said.\nHe teamed up with Clayton Randle, a developer with finance, real estate investment banking and private equity experience in New York and southern California, who had also grown up visiting family in New Orleans and also had a love for the city. Under the name Abri Design and Development, the duo developed a plan for the building, which for decades had been the Hurwitz Mintz furniture store, that they describe as \u201cthoughtful, ambitious, and that honored the history of the building.\u201d The building\u2019s owners \u2014 seven different groups of family members, all descendants of the Mintz family, which owned it for more than 75 years \u2014 liked their vision, and decided to sell Hecht and Randle the building.\nThat was 2014. Today, the newly restored May & Ellis building has just opened at 221 Chartres St. with 25 residential apartments. Soon, the first floor, with 7,000 square feet of retail space fronting Chartres Street, will host a restaurant and a caf\u00e9. With a few condo projects also recently opening on the same block, that quiet, dark street that Hecht traversed in 2014 will soon have more than 50 new residents.\nA complicated concept\nThe May & Ellis building is actually two \u2014 the structure that bears that name is five stories tall, built in 1908, and the building next to it, three stories, dates from 1861. The two have been joined for many decades, nearly a century, though, making the square footage for this project \u2014 40,000 square feet \u2014 simply massive, especially by French Quarter standards.\nTheir fondness for New Orleans\u2019 historic architecture led Randle and Hecht to work closely with Trapolin\u2022Peer, the architecture firm that made this project possible, on saving as many historic elements of the buildings as possible. Original brick and remnants of plaster are exposed in many units, as are many of the heavy timber beams that held the early buildings together. \u201cWe actually went through the building early on, and Trapolin\u2022Peer helped redesign some of the layouts of the apartments to keep as many exposed beams as possible,\u201d said Joe Yenni, project manager for Palmisano Contractors.\n\u201cWe found amazing writing on the walls,\u201d Hecht said. \u201cSome was visible when we bought the building, and some we found when we stripped off drywall. A lot of it is from the 1940s. There\u2019s arithmetic, phone numbers, women\u2019s names and phone numbers, poems, notes, even a note from D-Day. We wanted to preserve that to tell the history of the building.\u201d\nRandle and Hecht were able to utilize historic rehabilitation tax credit financing from the state and federal level \u2014 a combined 45 percent credit on historic rehab expenditures \u2014 by preserving the building\u2019s original elements. One major part of this, Yenni said, was the restoration of the historic windows. \u201cWe did the math, and it was more cost effective to restore the windows than to have new ones milled,\u201d he said. All of the wood windows were removed from site and dipped in chemicals to remove lead paint. After two to three weeks of drying, each wood sash was repaired, as were the rope and pulley systems used to open the windows. Each glass pane was reglazed, and the windows were reinstalled, with new trim to follow.\nMany repairs typical to buildings of this age were needed, including remediating termite damage and water damage, and repointing masonry. \u201cThe building was in deceptively solid condition,\u201d Hecht said. \u201cStructurally it was in pretty good shape\u2026[but the rest was] in typically fair condition.\u201d\nOne of the most complicated challenges of the project was not the saving of a historic feature, but the redefinition of one. \u201cWe wanted to recreate the iconic French Quarter courtyard in our building, but a contemporary interpretation,\u201d Hecht said. Both he and Randle were concerned at the precedent many French Quarter developments have set with apartment bedrooms lacking windows. \u201cAs an architect that has designed many multi-family buildings, access to light and air is a key component,\u201d Hecht said. \u201cThere\u2019s this weird quirk in Orleans Parish where rooms don\u2019t need a window to be a bedroom. It\u2019s the only place I\u2019ve ever worked where that\u2019s the case,\u201d Hecht said, and is rare in major US cities, Randle affirmed. But their historic building was deep, meaning that getting natural light and fresh air into every bedroom was going to be impossible. \u201cI was shocked by all these bedrooms with no windows\u2026that\u2019s not the kind of building we would want spend two years laboring over,\u201d Hecht said.\nThe May & Ellis building today, post renovation.\nSo he worked closely with Trapolin\u2022Peer to core both historic buildings like an apple, creating light wells, or \u201ccourtyards,\u201d that most apartments open on to. This allows the vast majority of bedrooms in the building to have at least one window. \u201cI knew the courtyard concept was a good idea when everyone said we were crazy to do it,\u201d Hecht said.\n\u201cOne of the most difficult parts of this project in terms of logistics was envisioning the light wells,\u201d Yenni said. \u201cCutting them in, and shoring up the structural requirements wasn\u2019t easy. But our team did a good job.\n\u201cThis project was actually a little smaller than our average project \u2014 we\u2019re working on two right now that are about five times the size \u2014 but the challenges were significant,\u201d Yenni said. \u201cFrom a logistics standpoint, it doesn\u2019t get more difficult than being in the French Quarter.\u201d The site lacked a \u201clay down\u201d area, Yenni explained, where supplies can rest during the day, and be stored at night. With no yard behind, and a public sidewalk and road in front, the May & Ellis site lacked space for workers to set up. \u201cIf you order cabinets, all of the cabinets for all 25 units show up in one day,\u201d Yenni said. \u201cAnd you have to stage them properly. Our success with that was thanks to our site superintendant and assistant superintendant, Glen Austin and Brent Freeman.\n\u201cMore difficult than having no lay down area was having no elevator in the building until the very end,\u201d Yenni continued. \u201cAll of the construction materials for roughly 80 percent of the whole building were carried up six flights of stairs.\u201d A handful of times, the team obtained permission to shut down Chartres Street and bring in a crane \u2014 which was particularly useful for tasks like constructing the penthouses, which add a floor to each historic building, raising the heights to six and four floors. \u201cBasically we built two structures on top of existing structures when building the penthouses,\u201d Yenni said.\n\u201cThe neighbors were tolerant, and we made the decision to group all of those [street shutdowns] into a few hours every two weeks or so instead of having disruptions every day,\u201d Hecht said. Surely they were pleased, like Hecht and Randle, that Palmisano\u2019s crew completed the project not just on time, but two weeks early.\nA common area on the roof of May & Ellis has incredible views of the French Quarter, the CBD and the Mississippi River.\nAttracting committed tenants\nHecht and Randle, especially after becoming New Orleans residents themselves, knew how important it would be for the success of the building, and for the revitalization of that section of the French Quarter, for May & Ellis to attract residents who would live in the building as their primary residence.\n\u201cA big focus for us from day one was attracting full-time residents, and having quality amenities will help attract them,\u201d Randle said. Being the French Quarter, of course some units will rent to tenants who will only live there part of the year, he said. But his hope is that the duo\u2019s attention to detail will attract people who work in the Central Business District, which is just blocks away, or in other parts of New Orleans.\nFor Hecht, that was why creating courtyards to bring light and fresh air into each unit and most bedrooms was so important. \u201cIt was critical towards attracting long-term residents,\u201d he said. He and Randle made other decisions that cost more, but also added much to the quality of live for tenants, such as adding gas lines throughout the building for better cooking in the kitchen.\nThey knew the historic elements would also attract full-time residents. With original windows and walls, and touches like bead board ceilings, the 25 apartments have warmth, and character. There are also personal flourishes throughout the building left behind by previous tenants. \u201cWe found amazing writing on the walls,\u201d Hecht said. \u201cSome was visible when we bought the building, and some we found when we stripped off drywall. A lot of it is from the 1940s. There\u2019s arithmetic, phone numbers, women\u2019s names and phone numbers, poems, notes, even a note from D-Day. We wanted to preserve that to tell the history of the building.\u201d Though not every unit has this wall art, several lucky tenants will be stewards of these intimate scribbles.\nA view of the building\u2019s reinterpretation of the French Quarter\u2019s historic courtyards.\nThe average apartment in May & Ellis is 1,000 square feet; one- to three-bedroom configurations are available. Units have open cooking and lounge spaces, separated only by counters, with 11 to 14 foot ceilings, soaring windows and contemporary fixtures to contrast with the historic elements. Bedrooms have closets, and bathrooms are outfitted in timeless subway tile. In addition to a restaurant and a caf\u00e9, the first floor will have a bike room for residents, and a cold food storage area so that tenants can have food delivered during the day while they\u2019re at work. The roof deck, which will be accessible to all tenants, has stunning views of the French Quarter and the Central Business District. It also has an indoor gathering space with a couch and chairs, and a gym.\nThe restored fa\u00e7ade gleams, with original flourishes, such as a cornice lined in decorative fleur de lis, repaired and freshly painted. As tenants began to occupy the building in October, life began to come back to that quiet part of Chartres Street. As more move in, and especially after the restaurant and caf\u00e9 open \u2014 both of which will be operated by esteemed local purveyors, Hecht says \u2014 people will have reason to come to this block, and stay.

        "raw_content": "Home / Shop / Christmas Sale / By His Grace and For His Glory\nA Historical, Theological, and Practical Study of the Doctrines of Grace in Baptist Life.\nRevised and Expanded 20th Anniversary Edition\nBy Thomas J. Nettles\nBy Dr. Tom Nettles\nIncludes 2 new chapters in Part 1: Historical Evidence\nArt work by Robert Nettles\nInitially this book arose, published in 1986, as a response to church reactions to the January Bible Study of 1980. Since then, the issues engaged have become more visible, more widely embraced by church members, pastors, denominational servants, more controversial and ardently opposed by some, and the subject of many discussion groups in churches and a variety of denominational settings. The attention focused on the doctrines of grace is good; it is healthy to give intense thought to issues of God\u2019s holiness, His sovereignty, and His efficacious and infinitely wise design in the justification of sinners under the curse of His Law.\n\u201cThis is simply the best book there is on the subject at hand. Dr. Nettles is a superb historian and he traces with careful attention to the sources the history of the doctrines of grace within the Baptist heritage. An important resource for reclaiming the past in the service of a future shaped by the great tradition of Bunyan, Keach, Fuller, Carey, Spurgeon, Boyce and Carroll.\u201d\nDean, Beeson Divinity School\n\u201cTom Nettles\u2019 book By His Grace and For His Glory is a landmark study. Bringing together the disciplines of the school, the concerns of the preacher and the heart of a Christian, Nettles effectively reminds Baptists of our own day what so many before us believed to be the gospel.\u201d\nDr. Mark Dever\nPastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church\n\u201cTwenty years after its first appearance, Tom Nettles\u2019 book remains an important work for modern Baptists. His major historical thesis-that the doctrines of grace formed a theological consensus among Baptists in the Southern states for the mid-nineteenth century into the first quarter of the twentieth century-has not seriously been engaged, much less refuted, by detractors and others who are less than thrilled by this doctrinal heritage. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to be honest when assessing historical Southern Baptist theology.\u201d\nDr. Tom Ascol\nPastor of Grace Baptist Church\nTom Nettles is a graduate of Mississippi College (BA) and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (MDiv and PhD). He is widely regarded as one of the foremost Baptist historical theologians in America. He previously taught at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas, Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary in Memphis, Tennessee and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois, where he was Professor of Church History and Chair of the Department of Church History. Since 1997 he has served as Professor of Historical Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky.",

        "raw_content": "In November 2016, DEINOVE launched the shift from laboratory to industrial scale, accompanied by the company Processium* . The first phase of this program consisted of:\nSelecting and characterizing a first carotenoid that will be market-ready, validating both its biological properties and its economic potential;\nOptimizing the production strain and increasing the yields in the laboratory, with a view to obtaining a strain suitable for industrial production;\nEvaluating the various extraction processes in order to define the best one in industrial production conditions.\nThis phase I has been conducted successfully.\nA first molecule has been selected for its innovative feature, with the goal of obtaining a competitive advantage on the market. DEINOVE has demonstrated its total safety, but also its antioxidant and healing properties, which position this first molecule as particularly favorable for cosmetic applications.\nThe carotenoid-producing strain was optimized and tested in fermenters of up to 20 liters. The yields obtained were significantly higher than the target yields, ensuring the economic viability of the production process.\nThe work carried out with the company Processium led to the evaluation of various extraction and purification techniques available on the market. It is now necessary to validate the performance of these techniques in order to prepare the transition to the industrial scale. The first laboratory-scale tests yielded an extract with a purity level suited for an actual commercialization.\nThe quality of the results obtained makes it possible to start phase II of this program, which aims to validate all the technical conditions and to select the subcontractors best suited for production at an industrial scale. This phase II should continue until the end of 2017 and lead to the production of the first batches of this carotenoid.",

        "raw_content": "We would like to inform you of three special events in May.\nOn Wednesday, May 1st there is a Friends Mini-Lecture with Marc Jaffe. Mr. Jaffe, whose wife is a physician with Parkinson\u2019s Disease, will speak about the challenges of living with the disease.\nWhen Marc Jaffe\u2019s wife was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s at age 48, both of them were overwhelmed. In time they have both found ways of coping with the disease. Marc\u2019s way is through humor. That is not surprising since he is a comedian and humor writer. But it is not necessarily a common means of dealing with difficulty. Marc will talk about writing a play, called \u201cSide Effects May Include\u2026 ,\u201d a one-man show which chronicles some of the funny ways his wife\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s meds changed their life. Marc and Karen turned the negative of the disease into positive action by forming a foundation to raise money for Parkinson\u2019s research called Shaking With Laughter.\nThis event will begin at 7:30 pm at the CPC offices. It is free and open to the public. If you would like to read more about this couple and their efforts to raise funds and awareness for PD, here\u2019s a link to an article in the Cleveland Heights Patch.\nOn Friday evening, May 10th we are hosting a Scientific Meeting with Nancy Kulish, Ph.D. Her talk is entitled, \u201cPatients\u2019 Objects in the Analyst\u2019s Mind: Complications and Enactments Abstract\u201d\n6:00 pm to 7:00 pm Hors d\u2019oeuvres reception\n7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Talk\nContinuing education credits (1.5 credit hours) for Center members is $15.00 and $22.50 for non-members\nNancy Kulish, Ph.D. is a Professor in the Department of psychiatry, Wayne State Medical School and Adjunct Professor of Psychology at the University of Detroit/Mercy. She is the past president at the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute. Dr. Kulish was chosen as the National Woman Psychoanalytic Scholar for 2005 of the American Psychoanalytic Association. She has published and presented on topics ranging from female sexuality, gender, transference/ countertransference, adolescence to termination. Dr. Kulish is in private practice in Birmingham, Michigan.\nOn Friday evening, May 31st there will be another Scientific Meeting with Anton Kris, who will speak about \u201cThe Dyer\u2019s Hand: A Disquisition on Some Aspects of Psychoanalytic Interaction\u201d\nAnton O. Kris, MD is a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. He has been a psychiatrist for over 50 years, a psychoanalyst for over 40 years, and a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute for over 30 years. Dr. Kris has served on the editorial boards of several of the major psychoanalytic journals and on the board of trustees of The Anna Freud Centre, The Sigmund Freud Archives, and The Anna Freud Foundation.\nFor details and to register for any of these programs, please call 216-229-5959 or email dmorsecpc@sbcglobal.net.",

Boletim do Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi:Ciencias Humanas, 10, 229-274. doi:10.1590/1981-81222015000200004.\nIn this paper we present the first results of the application of computational methods, inspired by the ideas in McMahon & McMahon (2005), to a dataset collected from languages of every branch of the Tupian family (including all living non-Tup\u00ed-Guaran\u00ed languages) in order to produce a classification of the family based on lexical distance. We used both a Swadesh list (with historically stabler terms) and a list of animal and plant names for results comparison. In addition, we also selected more (HiHi) and less (LoLo) stable terms from the Swadesh list to form sublists for indepedent treatment. We compared the resulting NeighborNet networks and neighbor-joining cladograms and drew conclusions about their significance for the current understanding of the classification of Tupian languages. One important result is the lack of support for the currently discussed idea of an Eastern-Western division within Tup\u00ed",

We demonstrate that the nonlocality of competing focusing and defocusing nonlinearities gives rise to self-organization and stationary states with stable hexagonal intensity patterns, akin to transverse crystals of light filaments. Signatures of this long-range ordering are shown to be observable in the propagation of light in optical waveguides and even in free space. We consider a specific form of the nonlinear response that arises in atomic vapor upon proper light coupling. Yet, the general phenomenon of self-organization is a generic consequence of competing nonlocal nonlinearities, and may, hence, also be observed in other settings.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb Conditions \u00bb Menopause\nDefining and Treating Menopause\nMenopause marks the complete and permanent end of a woman\u2019s menstrual cycle. It occurs when her ovaries cannot make any more of the hormones crucial to fertility, estrogen and progesterone; if her period has stopped occurring for one year; or if it is induced by a treatment, surgery or illness. For most women, menopause is a gynecological condition that begins around the age of 51, although it\u2019s been to known to occur as early as age 40; regardless of the exact time frame, each woman is different, and when it begins is determined by her genetics. From the very beginning stages to any form of treatment necessary, our dedicated staff is ready to assist you in this new phase of your life.\nSome symptoms are worse than others, can last up to years at a time and may even affect a woman\u2019s quality of life. While many women experience an irregular menstrual cycle as their very first symptom that menopause is drawing near, the signs will only progress as you enter the multiple stages. Symptoms of menopause that are commonly experienced include mood swings, headaches, pain during sexual intercourse, trouble sleeping, hot flashes, sweating, a racing heartbeat, vaginal dryness, vaginal soreness, mood swings and a lower sex drive.\nThe 3 Stages of Menopause\nMenopause occurs in a 3-stage series, happening slowly over time:\nPerimenopause: Occurring when a woman\u2019s body is making the transition into menopause, perimenopause is the first stage. It usually begins with menstrual irregularity, beginning in your 40\u2019s, and is marked by the unbalanced rising and falling of estrogen levels. Your menstrual cycles will become irregular, but you still have the ability to become pregnant.\nMenopause: As mentioned, menopause is the final occurrence of your menstrual period, defined by the 12-month mark of being period-free. This happens around the age of 51, and a woman can no longer become pregnant. You will begin to experience the symptoms of menopause full on by this stage.\nPostmenopause: This last stage of menopause happens a year after a woman\u2019s final period occurs, and she will remain in this stage until the end of her life. While the typical menopausal symptoms will cease (or at least become subdued), a woman in postmenopause is put at a higher risk for some health conditions \u2013 namely osteoporosis and heart disease.\nMenopausal Treatment Plans\nBecause menopause is not a disease, women are only able to treat their symptoms. In our office, we are able to provide prescription medication for hot flashes \u2013 one of the most reported symptoms among our patients. In a treatment called combination hormone therapy, we administer both estrogen and progesterone to women who still have a uterus. Prescription medication \u2013 in addition to over-the-counter medication \u2013 are also beneficial for vaginal dryness, which is especially great for women who are experiencing pain during sexual intercourse. Women experiencing this pain are also encouraged to consider topical estrogen and lubricants. Lifestyle changes are also advised, such as a healthy diet and strict exercise regimen \u2013 both of which can help manage various symptoms. Avoiding triggers like caffeine and spicy foods are also forms of simple symptom treatment. Although you should always consult Dr. Quartell before trying any alternative treatments, women can also seek comfort through various relaxation techniques and other natural remedies.\nSchedule an OB/GYN Appointment in NJ\nIf you feel that you are entering the first stages of menopause, we at Anthony C. Quartell, M.D. & Associates are here to help you every step of the way. Contact us at 973-968-4611 to schedule an appointment today.",

        "raw_content": "The Religious Education program at Queen of Apostles serves students in kindergarten (at least 5 years old) through high school. Together with your child\u2019s catechist, we welcome this opportunity to assist your son or daughter in living the Christian life: learning to pray, knowing the Bible and learning Scripture, and preparing for the sacraments.\nThe first day of Religious Education is the second Sunday in September and the last class is the first Sunday in June. Classes, taught in English, are held on Sundays at Queen of Apostles School (4409 Sano Street) from 9:00 to 10:15 AM. Students and their families may attend Mass before or after Religious Education class.\nReligious Education registration opens in late April and closes in early September. Register early to ensure enrollment in the respective grade because some classes reach capacity. Students will be assigned to the Religious Education class that parallels to his/her school grade; if your student is attending 3rd grade in public school, he/she will be assigned to the 3rd grade Religious Education class.\nBecause each year builds on the next year of faith formation, students must attend at least two consecutive years of Religious Education before a Sacrament is administered and have no more than three absences in the school year. Generally and based on the baptized student\u2019s desire and preparation, First Penance/First Holy Communion is received in grade 2 and higher and Confirmation is received in grade 8 and higher. Parents of unbaptized children under the age of 7, please contact the parish office at 703-354-8711.\nIf you are interested in registering your child for Religious Education class, please stop by the Parish Office (4329 Sano Street) to complete a registration form and pay tuition, or print and complete the form below and bring it to the office. Also, please bring a copy of your child\u2019s baptismal (if applicable) and birth certificate.\nTuition is $70 for 1 child, $120 for 2 children, and $150 for 3+ children in the same family. A $20 fee for registrations received after August 1 or for non-parishioners is imposed. Tuition does not include fees associated with First Communion, Confirmation, and Sacraments of Initiation.\nCatechists/Aides\nIf you are interested in sharing your love of the Catholic faith by serving as a volunteer catechist or aide in Religious Education, please contact the Parish Office, or e-mail s.gray@queenofapostles.org. We welcome your willingness to become involved with this ministry! Catechists also have the opportunity to participate in half day retreats, attend the Catechetical Conference, and enroll in the Diocesan Master Catechist Training Program. All adult volunteers, 18 years and older and not in high school, who work with youth are required by the Diocese of Arlington, Office for the Protection of Children/Young People to complete Virginia Background Check paperwork (notary to sign one of the pages) as well as to attend a VIRTUS seminar within 45 days of starting volunteering. The adult volunteer packet is available from the parish office.",

        "raw_content": "(Sigh.) Another theater season has drawn to a close in our local high school. They did a bang up job putting on Disney\u2019s Beauty and the Beast. And we survived. My lack of a post last week was due to the fact that we were just surviving the process, but now, a few days out, I can look back and enjoy the ride.\nTheater is a high impact, comprehensive, creative, full body sport. I love it. When I was in high school, it was one of my ambitions to play Mary Magdalene in Jesus Christ Superstar, on Broadway, or someplace similar. (Thankfully, I have let that particular ambition slide.)\nIt didn\u2019t take much time in New York City for me to realize I would rather be in the woods than on the stage. The theater of life is sufficient. But that doesn\u2019t stop me from still loving the process of live stage drama. So, I got a little bit involved.\nThe directors of the local theater program are really excellent folks with good taste in vegetables (we supply their families) and we had long talked about yoga with the theater kids. I started leading their warm ups at one rehearsal each week.\nIt was so much fun. I\u2019m hoping that the kids enjoyed it at least half as much as I did. Working with them, and watching them develop this performance has been a really special experience for me. Love of my daughter, the stage, and the local kids all collided in one great opportunity. I really want these young folks to get a sense of their own power, and to practice a waking awareness of their own bodies and selves. See, in order to convince someone in the audience that you are not yourself, you have to use every piece of yourself \u2013 every gesture, every breath, each movement \u2013 and so you need an acute awareness and control over yourself. I want them to know where their hands and feet are at all times \u2013 to feel the weight of their precious heads on their shoulders and use it well. I want them to use their whole bodies and their whole minds, and to learn how to work hard without hurting themselves in the process.\nThose teenage years are so freakin\u2019 intense. Young people have enormous amounts of energy \u2013 emotionally, intellectually, physically \u2013 and it is in the best interest of all involved for that energy to be used well. There\u2019s a tremendous focus on sports-related activities in our local schools (which is a fine outlet) and the theater gives an outlet to those who aren\u2019t so inclined to the playing field.\nWatching them take their final bow on closing night brought back vivid memories of those wonderful intense sensations \u2013 the heat of the lights, the bond with fellow players, the exhilaration and corresponding exhaustion. A theater production crew creates something altogether new with their combined efforts whether great or small, and shares that creation with the community. Whatever the character of their shared creation, if it grabs us, the audience, and takes us along for the ride, it is successful.\nOf course, when my personal favorite purple tea cup takes the stage, I can\u2019t pay very much attention to the rest of the action. That\u2019s the nature of parenthood I suppose, but besides that, I appreciate seeing her be a piece of the whole production process. As exhausting as it is, I do believe in it. (I\u2019ll believe in it even more when she\u2019s older and can drive herself to rehearsal, but\u2026)\nThen there was the bomb threat.\nYes, that\u2019s right, a bomb threat, right here in the middle of nowhere. It was a fake, of course, perpetrated probably by a student hoping to get out of school early, but the authorities had no choice but to take it seriously and lock down the school for a night. And that in turn meant canceling that night\u2019s performance and re-scheduling it later, which was a major bummer for the kids who had worked so hard for months to put this show together.\nMy initial reaction to hearing the word \u201cbomb\u201d connected to any place my children will be is to remove them from that place, perhaps permanently.\nBut after that reaction came and went, I got to thinking a little harder about it all.\nFirst I thought about this place \u2013 the rural south \u2013 where we have come home and chosen to raise our children. I wasn\u2019t born here, but have lived here since I was a little baby. I\u2019m still not considered \u201clocal\u201d and probably my children won\u2019t be either, even though they are among the tiny minority of people actually born in this county. Part of why I like it here is that there is a staying power to the people. Walking the halls of the high school on the closing night of the play, I looked at the faces of the graduates dating back into the 1930\u2019s. The surnames are still familiar \u2013 there are generations of people who have stayed right here. They know each other through deeply woven connections and generations of family ties. To my way of thinking, this gives the local society a level of accountability that is hard to find in the scattered social disconnect of suburban sprawl. There are problems, too, of course. There are \u201cgood old boy\u201d networks and prejudices that sometimes send me screaming. But there is a sweet, deep beating heart beneath all of that. And that\u2019s what will keep a community whole, a place where you don\u2019t ever, in your wildest dreams, expect to hear the words \u201cbomb threat\u201d. And that\u2019s part of why we are still here.\nThere is a tendency among a growing number of us to want to ditch civilization at large. I am definitely prone to that kind of thinking. There are times that I would like nothing more than to take my family deep into the primeval forest and stay there, where there are no bomb threats, no standardized tests, no blinking screens and ticking clocks and nightly news and faceschmuk.\nBut if I hold my gaze firm I come to know that there is no running away. There is no perfect place. What I want is a better world, a world without bomb threats and school shootings, among many things. It is feasible that my Fellow Man and I could perhaps create enough of a bubble around ourselves to make the world better for OUR kids, which would be great, but it\u2019s not the whole picture.\nI believe that when part of humanity suffers, we all suffer in some way. Our suffering, in our comfortable homes and with our creature comforts may be indirect and subtle. It may manifest in the crude sort of alienation that leads young people to make false bomb threats. But that doesn\u2019t make the suffering any less real.\nI want to do things that make the whole world a better place. Your world, my world, OUR world. This doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m joining Doctors Without Borders (a WONDERFUL organization). That\u2019s not my calling. My work, for now is simply to not run away \u2013 to stay here and occupy this world, at home.\nI believe that if we were to pay more attention to the places we occupy \u2013 our bodies, our homes, our communities \u2013 then these places will be improved. They will not be improved while our attention remains glued to the high speed screens that try to sell us what they say we ought to be.\nI\u2019ve heard it said that the footsteps of the farmer are the best fertilizer. That\u2019s not a statement about compressing the soil \u2013 it\u2019s about paying attention. Our worlds, large and small, need our attention, as they are right now, in pain and sickness and pleasure and plenty, to heal and to thrive. Nothing will get better if we ditch now. Nothing will improve without our heartfelt, focused, creative attention.\nThat\u2019s a lot to pack into a yoga class with some teenagers, I know. Sometimes people get a funny look on their face when I say to a class, \u201cfeel your feet on the ground\u201d. Maybe they\u2019re thinking that this yoga teacher is just nuts. Or maybe they\u2019re feeling the soles of their feet in a way they hadn\u2019t noticed before. Maybe they can carry that new sense of the soles of their feet out on the stage in the stride of some character that will make us all laugh our heads off. Maybe they will carry that sensation into their lives and use it to help them stay awake for all the beauty in store for them if they look for it, and create it. I hope so, cause that\u2019s what I\u2019m talking about.\nThe kids in the theater production occupied every inch of that stage to make that awesome performance. They connected to the creative process, and each other, and they shared it with us. We gave them back a lot of love and appreciation in return, and for this period of time, in this little town, that lively exchange made our world a very good place.\nThis entry was posted in coree's posts and tagged bomb threat, children, drama, raising children, small town, south, spring, teenagers, theater, yoga by Coree.

        "raw_content": "Primary thrombocythemia; Hemorrhagic thrombocythemia; Essential thrombocytosis; Primary thrombocythemia; Hemorrhagic thrombocythemia; Essential thrombocytosis; Idiopathic thrombocythemia See More\nBlood Diseases; Rare Cancers\nEssential thrombocythemia belongs to a group of diseases called myeloproliferative neoplasms, which cause the bone marrow to make too many platelets, white blood cells and/or red blood cells. In essential thrombocythemia, the body produces too many platelets. The signs and symptoms vary from person to person, but most people with essential thrombocythemia do not have any symptoms when the platelet cell count first increases. Signs and symptoms that develop as the disease progresses include:[1][2]\nincreased production of megakaryocytes (a type of cell in the bone marrow that is responsible for making platelets);\nenlargement of the spleen (splenomegaly); and\nbleeding in several parts of the body and/or clotting episodes such as strokes, pain in the legs and difficulty breathing.\nOther symptoms may include weakness, headaches, or a burning, tingling or prickling sensation in the skin. Some people have episodes of severe pain, redness, and swelling (especially in the hands and feet).[3]\nEssential thrombocythemia may be caused by a person acquiring (not inheriting) a somatic mutation in any of several genes, such as the JAK2 gene (most frequently), CALR gene, and rarely, the MPL, THPO, or TET2 gene.[4][5] The reason why some people acquire mutations that cause the disease is unknown.[6] Treatment may include low-dose aspirin, hydroxyurea, anagrelide, and/or interferon-alpha. Most people with the disease can live long lives. In very rare cases, essential thrombocythemia can transform into either primary myelofibrosis or acute myeloid leukemia.[4][6][7]\nEssential thrombocythemia is more common (80% of cases) in older people. Most cases are diagnosed around 60 years of age. Around 25-33% of people with this disease may not have any symptoms. The symptoms are varied and may include: [1][4][8]\nBlood clots that may form in several organs of the body, and may result in:\nSymptoms such as headache, dizziness, chest pain, fainting, numbness or tingling sensations of the hands and feet\nRedness, throbbing and burning pain in the hands and feet (erythromelalgia)\nBlood clot occurring in the arteries that supply the brain and may cause ministrokes (transient ischemic attack (TIA), or strokes, leading to weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg, trouble speaking, and vision problems\nThrombosis in the legs can cause leg pain, swelling, or both\nClots that can travel to the lungs (pulmonary embolism), blocking blood flow in the lungs and causing chest pain and difficulty breathing (dyspnea)\nBleeding episodes (when platelet count is very high (more than 1 million platelets per microliter of blood) that usually don't require transfusions, and may include:\nbloody stool or anal bleeding due to bleeding in the intestines (40% of cases)\nSwollen lymph nodes (rare)\nProlonged bleeding caused by surgical procedures or removal of a tooth\nUlcers of the fingers or toes\nMicrovascular occlusions (in arteries or small caliber veins) in fingers or toes leading to gangrene\nUnpleasant moods (dysphoria)\nSeeing spots or lights (Scotomas)\nComplications in pregnancy that can result in abortion.\nAbnormal platelet morphology\nAbnormal shape of platelets\nAmaurosis fugax 0100576\nBlood clot in artery\nChest pain 0100749\nIncreased megakaryocyte count 0005513\nProlonged bleeding time 0003010\nAcute leukemia 0002488\nMyelodysplasia 0002863\nMyelofibrosis 0011974\nAbnormality of the skeletal system\nPersistent blue color of hands, feet, or parts of face\nImpaired platelet aggregation 0003540\nIncreased number of platelets in blood\nEssential thrombocythemia may be caused by acquiring somatic mutations (not inherited mutations) in any of several genes, including the JAK2 gene (most frequently) and CALR gene. In rare cases, the disease is caused by mutations in the MPL, THPO, or TET2 gene. The proteins produced from the JAK2, MPL, and THPO genes work together to regulate a signaling pathway called the JAK/STAT pathway, which transmits messages to the cell nucleus to produce blood cells. It is believed that mutations in these genes lead to an increase in the production of platelets in the bone marrow.[4][5]\nThe reason that mutations in the CALR and TET2 genes cause essential thrombocythemia is not known. The CALR gene provides instructions for creating a protein called calreticulin that has many functions, such as aiding the functioning of the immune system and wound healing. The TET2 gene produces a protein that is thought to be important for the production of blood cells.[3][4][9]\nIn some cases, no genetic mutation is identified in a person with essential thrombocthemia, and the cause is not known. It is thought that these cases may be due to mutations in genes that are not yet known to be associated with the disease.[4][5]\nMost cases of essential thrombocythemia are not inherited. Instead, the condition arises from gene mutations that occur after conception (somatic mutations).[5]\nLess commonly, essential thrombocythemia is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. This means that just one copy of the altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the condition. When essential thrombocythemia is inherited, it is called familial essential thrombocythemia.[5] In familial cases, an affected person has a 50% (1 in 2) chance of passing on the condition to each of his or her children.\nThe diagnosis of essential thrombocytemia can be made when people who meet criteria 1-5 and more than three of criteria 6-11:[4]\nPlatelet count greater than 600,000/mm3 on two different occasions with a 1-month interval among them\nNo identifiable cause of secondary thrombocytosis\nHaving normal red blood cell mass\nBone marrow fibrosis that is less than one third of the bone marrow\nAbsence of the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) by a blood exam that examines the chromosomes (karyotyping) or absence of the \"bcr-abl fusion product\"\nSplenomegaly detected by physical examination or seen in ultrasonography\nHigh number of cell in the bone marrow and increased size of the megakaryocyte\nAbnormal blood producing cells in the bone marrow\nNormal levels of CRP and IL-6\nAbsence of iron deficiency anemia\nClonal hematopoiesis in which stem cells that produce blood cells help to form blood cells that have a unique mutation because these cells are derived from a single founding cell and are genetic \"clones\" of the original cells.\nMost of the time, the disease is found through blood tests, showing high number of platelets, done for other conditions before symptoms appear. Tests may include:[1]\nBefore starting the treatment, it is recommended to determine the risks of having complications according to the age, medical history and the presence of specific mutations to decide which the best treatment should be. The available treatments are not curative and do not prevent further evolution of the disease to acute myeloid leukemia or myelofibrosis (which only happens in very rare cases). The treatment of essential thrombocythemia is based in reducing the platelet count to avoid complications. The most common medication include hydroxyurea, interferon-alpha, Phosphorus 32, anagrelide. Aspirin in low doses can be used to control microvascular symptoms such as redness and pain in the fingers and toes, insufficient blood flow (ischemia), infections in the limbs (gangrene), strokes, syncopes, instability or visual disturbances.[1][4][10]\nThe classification of the disease according to the risks is as following:[7]\nHigh-risk disease: People who had thrombosis at any age and/or who are older than 60 years of age and have a JAK2 V617F mutation\nIntermediate-risk disease: People who are older than 60 years of age, who do not have a JAK2 mutation and who never had thrombosis\nLow-risk disease: People who are 60 years of age or younger, and who have a JAK2 mutation and never had thrombosis\nVery-low-risk disease: People who are 60 years of age or younger without a JAK2 mutation and never had thrombosis.\nRecent studies have made the following recommendations:[7]\nPeople who have a high risk of thrombosis or who had thrombosis should use a cytoreductor in combination with an anticoagulant\nPeople with high or intermediate risk, should be treated with a cytoreductor in combination with aspirin at low doses\nPeople who are at low risk should be treated with low doses of aspirin or are only observed carefully without any type of treatment\nHydroxyurea is the preferred cytoreductive drug for most people, because it is less toxic and has a lower risk of producing myelofibrosis. However, in pregnant women and in those women who wish to become pregnant, interferon is used because hydroxyurea or anagrelide may cause birth defects.[4][7]\nThe NORD Physician Guide for Essential thrombocythemia was developed as a free service of the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) and it's medical advisors. The guides provide a resource for clinicians about specific rare disorders to facilitate diagnosis and treatment of their patients with this condition.\nAnagrelide (Brand name: Agrylin\u00ae) - Manufactured by Shire\nFDA-approved indication: Treatment of patients with essential thrombocythemia to reduce the elevated platelet count and the risk of thrombosis and to ameliorate associated symptoms.\nBecause the symptoms vary from person to person, the prognosis is also different from person to person. In general, most people can live for long periods of time without complications and have a normal life expectancy. Few people can have more serious problems such as stroke, severe heart or respiratory problems, or bleeding episodes in several parts of the body. Also, in very rare cases, the disease can transform into either primary myelofibrosis or acute myeloid leukemia.[1][4]\nDifferential diagnoses include the other myeloproliferative neoplasms (polycythemia vera, primary myelofibrosis, chronic myeloid leukemia; see these terms), myeloid malignancies (myelodysplastic syndrome), causes of secondary thrombocytosis (inflammation, cancer, iron deficiency, asplenia) and primary familial thrombocytosis (see this term).\nClinicalTrials.gov lists trials that are related to Essential thrombocythemia.

        "raw_content": "We Can\u2019t All Be the Goalie\nMy youngest son wants to be goalie for some strange reason \u2013 I don\u2019t know why my kids think they have to play the one role in their sports that the game can happen to rest on your shoulders. They are trying to give me a heart attack. But thankfully, God intervened on my behalf because he isn\u2019t good at goalie. Not. at. all. He can\u2019t stop that ball for the life of him yet he keeps wanting to play. I texted Brad and said, \u201cHey honey, we have a problem, your son wants to be the goalie only he can\u2019t stop a ball for nothing. Ideas?\u201d He said he would work with him and I have to admit that it is going to take much more than a few afternoons in the sun to get that boy goalie material.\nBut the kid is fast and his coach has been gently reminding him that his speed is what they need. I love a coach who can detour a kid toward his gifts without the kids really even knowing what he is doing. Soon, Jackson is telling me how his coach really needs him to play forward and is counting on him to dribble the ball towards the goal. Goalie, smoalie.\nI can\u2019t help but wonder how many times I have wanted to be a goalie when God needed me to the forward. I am one to retreat by nature and hide and hole up. I would much rather just stand back by the goal and protect it than run forward into the enemy territory. Jesus left us with the great Commission which says, \u201cTherefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.\u201d God is calling us to go and make disciples.\nIt can be much safer back by the goal. We can stand back and just wait for the ball to possibly come in our direction. Yes, we might have to dodge a few bullets but we can stand pretty protected back home. Or we can choose to get further into the game and go out and play offensive. We can choose to pick up the message that God has given us and go out and share it with the world.\nOur churches missions logo is \u201cGet Up and Go!\u201d Choose today to step away from your home goal and play forward.\n2 thoughts on \u201cWe Can\u2019t All Be the Goalie\u201d\nLove that comparison",

        "raw_content": "The three people who came in started working as soon as they entered.\nThe gargoyle picked up the dead body of the Kobold and adventurers and put them in a jar. The jar itself wasn\u2019t that big so it seems it was similar to the thief\u2019s pouch.\nThe water girl is washing away the blood and gore by blowing large amounts of water out of nowhere and the pale faced girl mopped the floor.\nIn no time, the room was sparkling clean.Then the gargoyle walks out. Indeed, they are good. They looked like a really skilled team.\n\u201cWell, what should I do?\u201d\nBecause I was brought here, I was wondering if this is my domain?\u3000I wonder if I left here, does it count as me abandoning my work?\nSince the room is clean now, should I continue guard it?\nBut, if I stay here, more adventurers will eventually come. If they see monsters, they will be attacking me at the first sight, and if I keep pretending to be a treasure box, they will eventually come closer in order to open me.\nAfter all it is better to go outside.\nI am able to move freely. There is also a higher chance to flee rather than staying here.\nI opened the door carefully and went outside.\nI was wondering if it was something I couldn\u2019t do but I do not feel any restrictions on going out.\nWhen I came out, I\u2019m in a corridor.\nSeems like it was underground and the surroundings are dimly lit. It was a straight line passage, there are doors in some places and there is also a crossroad. It seems to be made in precision.\n\u201cYeah, I completely have no idea.\u201d\nWhich way I should go?\nThe only goal given to me is to survive for five days. I wonder how I should judge the number of days. There is nothing here which I can use to see the passage of time.\nWell, it can\u2019t be helped that I do not know the time, and I have to continue running away, there may be various ways of getting out of here. The way out maybe hidden from where the adventurers come from.\n\u201cFirst of all, I should explore this first floor and familiarized myself.\u201d\nIf I am familiar with the surroundings, it will be easier for me to hide and I may be able to escape out of here.\nFor starters, I couldn\u2019t stay in front of the room so I started walking down the corridor. When I walked down the hallway, it was unexpected for the dungeon to be really noisy.\nIt seems that there are people fighting somewhere and I can hear that sound. Okay then, I shouldn\u2019t come near to the source of the sound. I also hear some footsteps of adventurers; it won\u2019t be difficult for me to escape before they noticed me.\n\u201cIs it wrong for me to choose to escape?\u201d\nI was wondering what to do, since my task is to survive, I feel like I should survive no matter how. Full of optimism roaming around, I soon walked into a dead end alley.\n\u201cIf I just stayed and mimic a treasure box in a corner, will someone noticed me\u2026or not?\u201d\nMaybe, but I don\u2019t think that it was that simple.\nLet\u2019s head back first.\nI thought so, and at the same time there is a sound coming closer.\nWhen I was in the room I could not hear the sound coming from outside. In other words, each room was soundproofed. You won\u2019t know what is happening inside.\nWhen turning around, from a room which is about 10 meters in front of me, adventurers came out.\nAnyway, I need to hide.\n\u201cWow, I had lots of fun!\u201d\nYes, it was impossible.\nHeck, I have no place to hide! It was a dead end!\nAdventurers keep coming out one after another from that room.\n*zzz*.*zzz*.\nhuh?\u3000Huuuuh?\nHey, wasn\u2019t that too much?\u3000Normally a party consisted of four people and at most six people right?\nIn the blink of an eye the adventurers were over twenty in number.\nToo much!\u3000There\u2019s too many of them!\n\u201cWhat is that, Mimic?\u3000Does it usually appear on the first floor? \u201d\n\u201cEven if it appears, it would appear as a trap on the first floor, it was explained in the guide book. But, they shouldn\u2019t wander around the area, they are not in the list of wandering monsters.\u201d\nGuidebook!\u3000I want it!\n\u201cMaybe they haven\u2019t updated it and will do it in the new guide book?\u201d\n\u201cIs that so? I don\u2019t want anything wrong to happen.\u3000After all we\u2019re just beginner.\u201d\nThat\u2019s right!\u3000Get your hands out of something you can\u2019t handle!\n\u201cWell, isn\u2019t this just the first floor?\u3000Even beginner won\u2019t die in a place like this. How can you get scared here?\u201d\n\u201cAll right. The monsters on the first floor are not strong.\u201d\n\u201cYes, everyone, be quiet! I am your guide for this party and it would be better if you can listen to me. Although it is the first floor, this place is still a dungeon!\u3000If you do selfish things, I don\u2019t want to be held responsible!\u3000I will count this as a withdrawal from the beginner\u2019s party.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a beginner\u2019s party?\nAs I can see, some of them are still children.\nThe guy guiding in front approaches me with another person. Indeed, he is giving a vibe of an experienced veteran unlike the other guy. Wait, it\u2019s not the time to admire it!\n\u201cAll right, this is your first experience in facing the monster. You there. What should you do in situation like this?\u201d\n\u201cHai!\u3000Analyze and determining danger!\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s right. First of all, it\u2019s analyzing the enemy. Then, you all should give me some analysis. Everyone, start analyzing the monster!\u201d\nI\u2019m being watched!\nThey are looking at me very carefully down to the smallest details!\nRather than being watched, I feel like I was stripped naked and seen.\n\u201cHai! It is a level 1 mimic! \u201d\nIs that the only thing that you can found out after that much commotion?\n\u201cAlright, you! What is the meaning of level?\u201d\n\u201cHai, level shows the overall strength of the existence.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s right. The point here is that the level is a general purpose indicator. In other words, it works regardless of the race. In other words, the level 1 slime and the level 1 dragon are about the same in strength. There is no level 1 dragon, though. \u201d\nSomehow, the lecture has started beginning with me.\nNonetheless, it is interesting because I do not know anything about the level.\n\u201cWell, I told you that the level is an indicator of strength, but do not forget that the level can\u2019t represents some elements of strength. Strengthening with equipment, magic and skills is not reflected on the level. Also, skill is troublesome. Even if the level is low, for example, if the other party uses something like instant death magic, you can still die with a certain probability. As you all are beginner in analysis skill, you won\u2019t be able to see the other party skill and equipment. Let\u2019s be careful about that. \u201d\n\u201cWell, I have said what I want to say, this mimic is level 1 and there is no doubt that you guys are enough to win this battle. That\u2019s it, I just want to give you guys a tacit understanding about the dungeon. There is no dungeon that spawn strong monster at the starting first floor. This Arudora dungeon is the same. So, it is not serious, but you can\u2019t think lightly of such threat either.\u201d\nI was not just listening to the lecture in silence, I was wondering if I will be able to escape.\nIt seems I can\u2019t do anything.\nI am now in a corner and on my back is a dead end, there is no way out.\nThen, I have to somehow make my way through the beginner\u2019s party, but there are too many of them and the aisle is entirely packed.\nA beginner usually lacked mind, spirit, and physical qualities but I can\u2019t sense it from the group.\n\u201cAll right. Any boy who is a level 10 warrior, please come forward. I will let you guys handle this mimic.\u201d\nWhy not ask someone from level 1?!You guys are too cautious against a Level 1 monster!\u3000You can\u2019t get more cautious!\n\u201cBrother guide! I\u2019m also a warrior but I\u2019m not level 10 yet, I\u2019m at level 9, can I do it too? I want to hit it too! \u201d\n\u201cWeren\u2019t the warrior\u2019s girl get their turn earlier? I think it\u2019s time for the fighter group!\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m a level 15 mage. I think that if I shoot a single spell from here it will be finished in a flash.\u201d\n\u201cOh, I get it. Then, whoever that want this chance, raise your hand! So much\u2026 How about we decide it with rock, paper, and scissors.\u201d\nThis is my only chance.\nEven if the chance is slim, I need to keep pressing forward. Then, while the situation is messy, I should try it now.\nJust mindlessly moving is also bad, I think that crimson rose give me an explosive legs skill.\nI do not know anything about it but it seemed to be a killing move.\nI will try it and put it to use!\u3000This is my last resort.\nAll right, let\u2019s run with all of our strength!\nFor a moment I don\u2019t understand what is happening.\nHuh?\u3000I was attacked? What happened?\nI can feel painful headache and tried to closely held the lid of the treasure box in place using both hands.\nThe gaze of the adventurers now only directed at two place.\nMe, and the ceiling.\nLooking up, there is a crack in the ceiling.\nI see\u2026I hit the ceiling earlier.\nI kicked the floor with full force trying to do a dash but I was launched upward instead.\nPerhaps the strength of my leg is increased because crimson rose?\nI stand up and move to the nearest adventurer with great momentum.\n\u201cSurprise fury kick!\u201d\nKick with full power!\nMy leg is so strong, earlier I was able to hit the ceiling just by little effort.

I was slightly surprised, but the attack power is still level 1.\u201d\nIs that so? Moving and attacking are different! Huh?\u3000That\u2019s a bit strange isn\u2019t it?\u3000If my leg strength is increased to the point where I can run at a fast speed, it was normal if it increased my attacking power too!\nThe guide brother takes out a sword.\nI retreated with full power as fast as I can.\n*swoosh*\u3000*bam*\nI moved back too much and hit the wall.

The Ningxia solar project will eventually cover 4,607 hectares, and be made up of approximately 6 million solar panels. According to Bloomberg, it will be the largest solar farm the world has ever seen, requiring an investment of up to $2.34 billion.\nNot only will the Ningxia solar project be the largest in the world, it will be larger or comparable to some countries\u2019 total installed solar capacity.\nAs Bloomberg notes, the new project \u201cis emblematic of China\u2019s clean-energy ambitions.\u201d As we saw earlier this year, China installed 22 GW of grid-connected solar in the first six months of 2016 alone, including a phenomenal 11.3 GW connected in June alone. This is on top of the 18.6 GW that was said to be installed in 2015. Bloomberg notes that China\u2019s solar installations more than doubled to 50 GW in the two years through 2015, and everyone is predicting that China\u2019s installed solar capacity is only set to soar over the next few years, thanks to a burgeoning economy, increasing population, and decreased solar costs \u2014 not to mention clean energy targets and worldwide pressure for countries like China (and India) to make cleaner energy capacity additions.\nMore : China, solar\nHow the South Australia blackout occurred: what the data tells us\nVictoria's days of gas dependence are fading",

        "raw_content": "Conditions leading to unresolved attachment status for loss and the role of complicated grief\nBEVERUNG-DISSERTATION.pdf (1.488Mb)\nBeverung, Lauren Mock\nA central goal of this study is to better understand why some mothers become unresolved with respect to experiences of loss whereas others do not. Adults are considered to be unresolved with respect to loss if they display signs of mental disorganization while discussing an attachment-related loss due to death \u2013 for example, talking in the present tense about a deceased person as if the person is still alive (Main, Goldwyn, & Hesse, 2002). Studies have accumulated documenting the negative consequences of being unresolved. Researchers have linked unresolved attachment to frightened/frightening maternal behavior (Jacobvitz, Leon, & Hazen, 2006), drug/alcohol abuse (Riggs & Jacobvitz, 2002), and other Axis I and II disorders (Ward, Lee, & Polan, 2006; Fonagy et al., 1996); as well as anxiety, anger, (Busch, Cowan, & Cowan, 2008) and controlling behavior (Creasey, 2002) in romantic relationships. Less is known about the conditions under which a person becomes unresolved. This study will be one of the first to examine the comprehensive effects of several risk factors known to influence a person\u2019s ability to resolve a loss including kinship, cause of death, and suddenness as well as primary attachment pattern. Other factors included in this study are social support and lifestyle changes. Although attachment theory provides a thorough explanation for an individual\u2019s inability to resolve a loss, it is only one of many theoretical explanations of this phenomenon (Rando, 1993). One theory that is conceptually similar to unresolved loss is the theory of complicated grief, the process of painful searching and yearning for a deceased person (Prigerson et al., 1995b). Like those who study unresolved loss, complicated grief researchers are still seeking to understand what factors can predict whether an individual will experience prolonged symptoms of grief (van der Houwen et al., 2010). Also similar to unresolved loss, complicated grief involves irregular patterns of mental processes following a loss; however, complicated grief seems to be a conscious process, whereas unresolved loss has non-conscious components. Hence, this dissertation also examined whether complicated grief was related to unresolved loss and, if so, whether the origins for complicated grief were similar to unresolved loss.",

        "raw_content": "Picture by Jelleke Vanooteghem\n3D graphical visualisation for biofeedback therapy\n3D computer visualisation for medical purposes has become a growing field of science. These techniques have had huge impact in medical practice, from education to diagnosis and training. Driven by improvements in technology and increases in computing power, 3D visualisation and imaging are now being accepted clinically for diagnosis. Moreover, this technology is now powerful enough to describe precise and real time information of the anatomy that can be used to guide surgery. Virtual reality technologies that employ advanced 3D visualisation tools have been also used in physical rehabilitation.\nThis PhD project aims to address the challenges in rehabilitation. The EDA team (consisting of clinicians, academics and industry) has a strong record in developing clinical devices, providing visual biofeedback to patients. These devices combine measurements from instrumentation, a simulation model and a 3D-visualisation software interface. Existing EDA technology will be adapted to measure swallowing parameters. A simulation model will be developed mimicking the swallowing dynamics, which will be translated into a 3D visualisation to provide real-time biofeedback to the patient.\nProposals in other areas of rehabilitation using 3D visualisation and bio feedback are also welcome\nCandidates should have, or are expecting to obtain in the near future, a First Class or good 2.1 Honours Degree in Digital Media, Computer Science, Engineering or a related discipline. An appropriate degree at Masters level will be an advantage.\nPlease contact Dr Jim Ang (csa8@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nA Psychological Approach to Biometric Feature Selection\nSelecting which features are used for biometric recognition from images such as faces has relied on algorithmically assessing the performance of both individual and combinations of features. In this project we shall utilise results from Psychology as to how humans make an identity in a surveillance context, in terms of what features are used and furthermore when they are used as person approaches. This project will investigate software classification systems inspired by human methods of personal identification and assess if these methods can enhance conventional systems.\nPlease contact Dr. Richard Guest (r.m.guest@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nAgeing-Adaptive Face Recognition\nFace recognition is now an important tool in key applications such as border control and forensic investigations. This project is concerned with developing new technologies for automatic recognition of people using their facial images when there may be a large time difference between the images that are compared. Human ageing significantly affects the performance of face recognition systems in these crucial application domains. The proposed research aims to develop a thorough understanding of the impact of the human aging process on the performance of face recognition systems and through this understanding develop systems and strategies for management of biometric information to ensure universal access to cost-effective biometrics-enabled authentication and forensic services.\nPlease contact Dr. Farzin Deravi (f.deravi@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nApplying Adaptive Systems to Biometric Recognition Problems\nExisting adaptive system technologies such as weightless neural network techniques are limited by the number of pattern classes over which they may be employed since each additional class incurs a significant memory penalty. They may thus be employed for tasks such as character recognition where a limited number of distinct classes is present but may not be employed in problem domains, such as one-to-many biometric identification, where the number of classes is far higher. This project will investigate techniques for applying such technology to biometric systems via the development of a multi-classifier configuration for weightless networks where the component classifiers are trained on differing subsets of the pattern classes available. The entire ensemble is subsequently able to address the one-to-many identification problem. This project will specifically address fingerprint recognition.\nPlease contact Dr. Gareth Howells (w.g.j.howells@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nAugmented Reality Interaction\nAugmented reality (AR) is a technology which blends digital information (e.g. virtual objects, graphical user interfaces, etc.) in the physical environment, allowing the users to experience a \u201cmixed reality\u201d world. In other words, AR can augment real-world environments with computer-generated sensory input such audio video, 3D graphics and other digital information. In a smart manufacturing environment, a AR headset can display contextually relevant information to manufacturing workers to perform their tasks more efficiently and safely.\nThe PhD project will deal with a range of engineering and design issues of AR headset, as well as other forms of user interaction modalities for healthcare domains. For instance, can AR be designed to help support patients with certain psychological conditions, e.g. anxiety and phobia? Another research area of interest is the assessment of user\u2019s cognitive and affective states through monitoring of body movements and physiological markers through sensors built into the AR headset or external sensors.\nCandidates should have, or are expecting to obtain in the near future, a First Class or good 2.1 Honours Degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or a related discipline. An appropriate degree at Masters level will be an advantage\nPlease contact Dr. Jim Ang (c.s.ang@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nAutomatic Biometric Recognition of Wildlife\nGold Crested Newts are an endangered and protected species and their close monitoring has become an important aspect of the worldwide attempts for the preservation. This project aims to explore if the patterns on the belly of these newts can be used for their individual identification. Techniques similar to those used in human biometric recognition will be adapted to the extraction of features and classification of newt belly patterns to provide means for their monitoring. The issues of ageing and uniqueness for these patterns will also be explored. The project is likely to result in significant new findings in both areas of conservation and pattern recognition. This project will be conducted in association with the Durrell Institute for Conservation and Ecology.\nPlease contact Dr. Sanaul Hoque (s.hoque@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nBiometric Exception Handling using Shamir\u2019s Secret Sharing Algorithm\nA major problem with any biometric system is how to deal with situations where a person is unable to provide a sample from the given modality. For many practical systems a solution to this problem is essential to prevent large scale exclusion of sections of the population from given services (such as travel) or compromise of the security of the system employing the biometric. Multi-biometric systems offer a possible solution to this problem by allowing a person to select a modality or set of modalities from which to provide a sample. However, the biometric system employing these modalities needs to be designed to provide a secure and integrated whole. Shamir\u2019s secret sharing algorithm offers a possible solution to this problem by ensuring that authentication only occurs when a given number of biometric modalities match the given user but offer the flexibility that an arbitrary subsets of modalities may be employed. An additional security feature is that the comprise of fewer than the required number of biometric modalities does not compromise the security of the overall system. This project will address the practical issues related to producing a working implementation of such a system.\nBiometric Identity Verification using BCH Codes\nThis project will investigate a means of addressing the significant Achilles\u2019 heel of existing biometric systems in that compromised access to biometric template data contained within one system will potentially compromise all systems and data protected by the biometrics contained within the templates. The storage of template biometric data, however encrypted or secured, necessarily places any system secured via that template at risk. As an alternative approach, biometric feature data may be encoded with BCH codes with only the check bits of the codes being stored. Reverse engineering of the biometric data thus becomes a highly challenging task and security is improved. This project will consist of an evaluation of this technique followed by the creation of a practical demonstrator.\nBiometric Liveness Detection and its Evaluation\nFace recognition is now an important tool in key applications such as border control. Increasingly there is a range of applications where it is desirable to deploy face recognition in unsupervised and remote applications where it may be possible for fraudsters to present photographs or other artefacts representing the faces of genuine users and thereby gain unauthorized access. A range of technologies have emerged for detecting such sensor-level spoofing attacks and determining the genuine liveness of the biometric samples presented to the sensor however objective assessment of these technologies have so far not been placed on an objective footing. This project is concerned with developing new technologies for liveness detection, as well as methodologies and protocols for objective assessment of liveness detection and counter-spoofing technologies with a focus on facial biometrics.\nBiometric/Signature Variation due to Capture Device\nAnyone who has used a back-projected write-on device for the donation of a signature will know that the visual appearance of the resultant signature often differs significantly from a paper-and-pen based representation. As these devices (PDAs, dedicated signature capture tablets etc.) become more widespread, it is important to analyse variations that occur due to the device, \u2018ink\u2019 feedback, writing surface and user interface for use in biometric authentication scenarios. This work seeks to establish these variations to enable an understanding of expected performance and to explore best practice as far as user interface/writing surface design is concerned in order to ensure maximum performance.\nPlease contact Dr. R.M. Guest (r.m.guest@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nBrain Computer Interfaces for biometrics and affect monitoring\nThis project will explore the use of biosignals, such as EEG, as a source of information for assessing the identity, attention and emotional state of individuals. Use of games-grade Brain Computer Interfaces is explored as a source of biometric information and for establishing the attention of subjects and their level of stress and anxiety. This information can then be used to develop better and more reliable interfaces for intelligent applications. The resulting techniques can also be used to produce novel systems to aid the treatment and rehabilitation of patients and severely disabled people.\nPlease contact Farzin Deravi (f.deravi@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nDevice agnostic activity recognition in an IoT rich world\nSignificant work has been done in developing systems that can accurately detect human activities using sensing technologies embedded in the environment (IoT) and / or worn by the user. Such systems have been explored in the context of smart homes, where the smart environment is capable of adapting to the activities their participants are performing, or in the context of health and wellbeing where unusual changes in daily activities can be indicators of changes in user\u2019s health.\nHowever, with the fast growth in the IoT industry. such sensing technologies tend to have a very short life-span (new smart devices with new capabilities are developed every year), there is real challenge in developing activity recognition techniques that can be translated across devices that may potentially have new capabilities. The aim of the project is to investigate the challenges of developing activity recognition models that can be transferred across devices that have potentially different capabilities, either automatically, or with minimum user involvement. The vision is the develop an activity recognition system that would evolve over time, as new technologies are developed and older technologies are decommissioned without the need for full re-training of the system.\nCandidates should have, or are expecting to obtain in the near future, a First Class or good 2.1 Honours Degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related discipline. An appropriate degree at Masters level will be an advantage.\nPlease contact Dr Christos Efstratiou (c.efstratiou@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nDisplay and performance of creative media in public space\nUbiquitous digital technologies enable creative practices to be easily embedded into everyday life. These technologies may be out-of-the-box solutions but are often custom-made. We can use both, out-of-the-box and custom-made technologies, to mash tangible and virtual objects, produce hybrid textual (and textural) experiences, visualise flows and movement, etc. These technologies are part of a socio-economic acceleration process, but can we use them to design creative mediated experiences that slow the acceleration down and offer people the opportunity of engaging with them and with others in public space?\nThe PhD student is expected to: (i) analyse existing out-of-the-box and custom-made design solutions; (ii) prototype media installations that slow people down in public space (e.g. e-literature and hyper-textuality in physical environments; visualisation/sonification of flows in urban/natural environments); (iii) test the designed prototypes (e.g. alpha/beta tests with groups); and (iv) evaluate them in the context of embodied perception (e.g. using sentiment analysis, position tracking, visual ethnography).\nStrong first degree and Master\u2019s degree in digital media, interaction design or related discipline. Candidates should ideally have strong software skills, and experience with tangible interfaces, media and interaction design.\nPlease contact Dr Rocio von Jungenfeld (r.von-jungenfeld@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nExploring smartphone photography as means of detecting and influencing mental wellbeing\nWith the wide use of smartphone devices, photography has become a prominent activity for users.\nMomentary smartphone photography can be considered as a rich dataset that can reveal the experiences of users on a daily basis. Furthermore, reviewing of older photos has been shown to influence peoples psychological attitudes and general mood. In this work the aim is explore two key research questions: firstly whether photos captured by smartphone users can be used to discover their changes in affective state (positive or negative mood), and secondly whether a smart system can be devised to serve selective photo memories as a form of intervention to influence user\u2019s affective state. The focus of the work will be on the development of machine learning algorithms that can discovery associations between photo content and meta data, and the users affective state, and the design of automated interventions using appropriate ML techniques. The intention of this work is to explore the applicability of such techniques for people suffering from depression or bipolar disorder.\nFacial Recognition using a Variety of Sources\nFacial biometric systems most frequently use images that are controlled in terms of subject pose and environmental factors such as background. Very often matching is required on photographic samples that do not meet these ideals, for example when automatically matching two images uploaded to Facebook. This project will investigate the performance of automatic systems to verify facial images collected across a wide range of scenarios and sources, and devise a mitigation framework to maximise verification ability.\nInteractive Face Recognition\nOne important step in face recognition is the acquisition of a normalised image of the face. This project is concerned with developing techniques to allow a user to facilitate the face recognition process through the acquisition of high quality images. As part of the project algorithms will be developed to dynamically assess the quality of the image and this is then used to provide feedback to the user to make necessary adjustments, including adjusting his position relative to the camera, for optimum performance. The algorithms and interfaces developed will be tested using databases of facial images as well as live sessions to prove their effectiveness.\nInvestigation of Techniques for the Direct Generation of Encryption Keys from Electronic Circuits (Icmetrics)\nThe digital revolution has transformed the way we create, destroy, share, process and manage information, bringing many benefits in its wake and an ever increasing number of embedded consumer and communication devices are at the heart of this revolution. However, such technology has also increased the opportunities for fraud and other related crimes to be committed. Therefore, as the adoption of such technologies expands, it becomes vital to ensure the integrity and authenticity of electronic digital systems and to manage, control access to and verify their identity. The University of Kent has developed novel techniques for the generation of encryption keys directed from properties associated with the software and hardware associated with a particular device, termed ICmetrics. ICmetrics represents an exciting new approach for generating unique identifiers for embedded devices enabling secure encrypted communication between devices potentially significantly reducing both fraudulent activity such as eavesdropping and device cloning. The use of ICMetric authentication represents a novel concept of regulating access to devices and is explicitly aimed at providing protection at the especially vulnerable points where data access is initiated. Specifically, the aim is to investigate appropriate integrated encryption and digital signature facilities to protect data from unauthorised access, forgery and tampering. Project objectives are to evaluate available feature sets for a range of ICmetric measurements and determine those suitable for application in the direct encryption technology and further to develop a set of prototype tools for demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The project will explore further the potential of ICmetric technology by the use of novel measurement features and exploitation scenarios such as those associated with Cloud Computing.\nInvestigation of Template-Free Biometric based Encryption Technology\nCompromised access to confidential data is a growing source of serious crime encompassing a wide variety of areas including medical, legal and law enforcement agencies. As the adoption of digital technologies expands, it becomes vital to minimise fraudulent use of digital data by ensuring their integrity and authenticity and in managing and controlling access to their shared contents. This project will build on the substantial novel work already undertaken at the University of Kent into template-free biometric technology. The developed technology offers the advantages of:-\n1. The development of biometrically based data encryption techniques which offer the significant advantage of not requiring the storage of potentially compromising biometric templates.\n2. The development of prototype tools to allow the practical exploitation of such technology in order to realise significant benefits.\n3. The development of techniques for the distributed management and processing of data to establish trust for the producers, distributors, consumers and users of documents containing confidential data.\nMerging Model Driven Software Engineering and Adaptive Systems for Autonomous Vehicle Design\nThis project will bring together several previously independent domains of Computer Science and systems engineering to address the significant challenges in engineering a robust and reliable autonomous vehicle capable of adapting to a rapidly changing dynamic environment. Specifically, it proposes to combine techniques derived from Model Driven Development and Adaptive Systems to develop a software architecture capable of \u201chigh-level\u201d adaptation rather than the low level adaptation typically exhibited by current adaptive systems. In the proposed solution, high level models of the system would be subject to the governance of an overarching adaptive system which would be able to modify the models to cover a rapidly changing environment which may be significantly at variance to that originally envisioned. This ability is due to a class of artificial neural system developed at the University of Kent which is able to model high level language concepts by integrating formal mathematics within the traditional architecture of an artificial neural system combined with an intelligent agent approach. The fundamental research hypothesis of the projectl is that the combination of advantages from Model Driven Software Engineering, Adaptive systems, autonomous agents, multiple processor core computing, embedded systems and control engineering can be fused to produce a hybrid technique that is better able to generate, manipulate and modify model transformations than any technique in its own right. The significant novelty of the project is the application of generalised adaptive systems to the problem, these serve to reduce the complexity and quantities inherent in defining transformations rules for each individual case. This has the beauty not only of its generality and adaptability but its inherent simplicity means it is extremely well suited for operation in a low power and limited resource environment.\nNovel Approaches to Static Signature Verification\nVery often the only form of archive signature data is as a static image rather than the time series data used in dynamic signature verification. This project aims to comprehensively explore methods for the verification of static signatures and develop comparison methods based on other image-based biometric technologies such as fingerprint and facial recognition algorithms.\nNovel Behavioural Modalities for Biometric Recognition\nBiometrics-enabled person recognition systems hold the promise of providing reliable authentication and protection of personal identity for a range of applications. This project involves an investigation of new modalities using biosignals such as EEG and gaze trajectory for the recognition of individuals. The proposed research programme will explore the development of systems and solutions to establish extract and classify information from such biosignals to see if the identity of individuals can be reliably established from them. Additionally liveness of biometric samples may also be assessed through such data thus countering the possibility of spoofing. The focus of the research will be the development of spoof-resistant acquisition strategies for person recognition.\nParticipation, perception and play in interactive environments\nThe design of interactive environments can help us understand how people perceive and play with digital technologies and experience technologically mediated environments. Perception and participation are idiosyncratic, so how can we design comprehensive interactive tangible environments that explore, for instance, the visual-haptic characteristics of colour or the agency of light beams? How can we bring colour-perception or assemblage theories into interactive environment design?\nThe PhD student is expected to: (i) analyse current trends and developments in internet of things and interaction technologies; (ii) prototype visual/haptic interfaces or light reacting environments/systems; (iii) produce site-specific tests of the designed systems (e.g. alpha/beta tests with groups); and (iv) evaluate the systems in the context of engagement and play (e.g. using sentiment analysis, position tracking, visual ethnography).\nPassive activity sensing for assistive living using IoT\nCurrent state-of-the-art in assistive living relies heavily on the use of wearable sensing technologies. However, real-world deployments of wearable technologies for the elderly have had only limited success. In this project we aim to explore a new paradigm where the daily activities of people are monitored passively through sensing technologies that are embedded within the environment, without the need for any form of wearable device or active user intervention. Specifically, the aim of this project is to rely on a combination of embedded sensing technologies involving audio sensing, RF sensing and presence (PIR) sensing that work collaboratively to accurately track the daily activities of elderly participants.\nResearch challenges that would be investigated are:\nAudio sensing for activity detection: Employing deep learning models to identify changes in contextual activities performed at home.\nMulti modal sensor fusion: Exploring the fusion of audio, RF sensing and presence sensing to accurate detect activities in shared environments with multiple occupants.\nPassive sensing infrastructure: Explore the challenges of embedding passive sensing ML algorithms in resource constraint sensing devices.\nOur team in the School of Engineering and Digital Arts is in close collaboration with industrial partners involved in the deployment of IoT (Internet of Things) technologies for assistive living. The project will benefit by access to real-world deployments of the relevant technologies in elderly peoples\u2019 homes.\nPerson Recognition from High-Resolution Skin Texture\nRecently the possibility of using high resolution images of skin textures have been suggested as a means for improving face recognition accuracy. In this project algorithms will be developed for skin texture recognition based on spatial and frequency domain features. Algorithms will be tested on a database of high-res facial images. Additionally the robustness of this approach to involuntary and deliberate changes to skin conditions will be assessed.\nPortability and creative media projections in public space\nIn this project you will investigate how interactive designs can bring media out of portable electronic devices (e.g. screens, headphones) and into the public sphere where they can be shared with others. The work will involve the co-creation and display of content in public learning spaces (e.g. park, garden) and the design of an expanded media experience for public space. The designs should be conceived to enable people to participate in hybrid digital-tangible environments are made of media, projections and interactive things.\nThe PhD student is expected to: (i) analyse current trends and developments in projection, recording and interaction technologies; (ii) prototype locative, recording, interactive and projection systems; (iii) produced site-specific tests of the designed systems (e.g. alpha/beta tests with groups); and (iv) evaluate the systems in the context of engagement and situated learning (e.g. using sentiment analysis, position tracking, visual ethnography).\nPlease contact Dr Rocio von Jungenfeld (r.von-jungenfeld@kent.ac.uk ) for more details.\nRecognition of Emotional States from Facial Images\nFace recognition systems are now increasingly used as a means for reliable recognition of individuals to enhance security and prevent identity theft. This project will explore the use of facial images as a source of information for assessing the emotional state of individuals. Use of video information from a number of channels including different colour and thermal imaging sources is explored for establishing the liveness of subjects and their level of attention, stress and anxiety. This information can then be used to develop better and more reliable interfaces for intelligent applications.\nSensing of Quality of Life for people with long term health conditions using mobile technologies\nMedical interventions on people with long term health conditions require an assessment of how quality of life (QoL) for the patient may be altered or improved. The aim of the project is to explore the design of low energy sensing and classification systems that can detect changes in QoL from low level sensor data captured by people\u2019s smartphones and wearable devices. Of particular interest would be the detection of daily social patterns of users using mobile sensing technologies, and how those can be used to estimate their perceived QoL. Through the longitudinal collection of mobile and wearable sensor traces, the aim is to develop machine learning algorithms that can detect potential changes in the perceived quality of life through the analysis of the sensor data.\nSignature Ageing and Stability\nThe human signature is widely used behavioural biometric modality. Automated systems rely on using algorithms to assess similarity between samples, but by its very nature, intra-person samples will vary. Signatures and writing can also vary over time. The aims of this project are twofold: firstly to assess the short- to mid- term variations in writing and signatures to establish the validity of enrolment templates. Secondly, the project will look at longer term data to consider the implication of ageing on the construction of writing.\nSkin-like sensors for human computer interactions\nElectrophysiology research has drawn a great attention for advancing human-computer interaction (HCI), in addition to its main contributions in health monitoring. Recently, in collaboration with Dr Yeo from Georgia Tech (https://sites.google.com/view/yeogroup) we are researching a class of technology for low profile, soft, and stretchable electronics (\u2018skin-like electronics\u2019), which provides comfortable, conformal integration to the human skin for recording of physiological signals. Without the use of conductive gels and adhesives, ultrathin elastomeric membranes provided sufficient adhesion force to mount electrodes on the skin, purely via van der Waals interactions; same force that geckos use to stick to walls. Currently, we are interested in exploring how skin-like EMG sensors can be used for monitoring swallowing and chewing. We measure deglutition (action of swallowing) behaviour to demonstrate game-based, user-controlled feedback (see video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIBkpdqbGjA). We have also used skin-like EEG for brain-computer interaction control.\nIn this PhD project, you will be exploring novel use of these skin-like sensors for a range of HCI applications. Candidates should ideally have strong software skills, including machine learning and software app development.\nPlease contact Dr. Jim (CS) Ang (C.S.Ang@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nStereoscopic vision and proprioception in VR environments\nVR headsets offer new avenues for the creative exploration of affect at individual and collective level, and for experiencing our place in the world and our relationships with others. Based on stereoscopic, proprioceptive and binaural principles, VR makes us question where our bodies are and in which environments we inscribe our actions. On this account, can we apply the prevailing premise of environments as products of actions to VR, and if so what new VR experiences can we design?\nThe PhD student is expected to: (i) analyse prevailing theories on the construction of environments and the interrelation of agents and things; (ii) prototype VR experiences based on these theories (stereo-vision, sound environments, haptic/proprioception); (iii) test the designed prototypes (e.g. alpha/beta tests with groups); and (iv) evaluate them in the context of embodied perception (e.g. using sentiment analysis, position tracking, visual ethnography).\nStrong first degree and Master\u2019s degree in digital media, interaction design or related discipline. Candidates should have strong software skills, and experience with tangible interfaces, media and interaction design.\nTangible Media and Mixed Reality\nA tangible user interface allows the users to interact with digital information through the physical environment. This could involve the use of various sensors and actuators to manipulate and perceive digital information, giving it physical form. This interaction technique is closely related to the idea of mixed reality. Mixed reality refers to the blending of physical and virtual worlds to produce visualisations in which physical and virtual objects co-exist and interact with each other.\nThere are various application domains of this research area, including learning/training, healthcare, art installations, museum displays, games/entertainment, etc.\nThe digital media group at Kent has been carrying out research in the use of tangible media for people with dementia at care homes and day centres. We are also currently investigating the use of this technology for education in rural regions of developing country.\nPhD projects looking into the study, design/development, and evaluation of novel tangible media in healthcare, education, and other relevant application domains are welcomed. These projects typically require skills in the interaction between software (mobile app, Web, 3D game engine, etc) and hardware (arduino, raspberry pi, kinect/leap motion, various sensors such as physiological and environmental sensors, etc).\nCandidates should have, or are expecting to obtain in the near future, a First Class or good 2.1 Honours Degree in Computer Science, Electronic Engineering or a related discipline.\nPlease contact Jim Ang (c.s.ang@kent.ac.uk) for more details.\nValidation Techniques for Complex Devices\nThis project seeks to bridge the gap between the observed performance of hardware and the predicted performance of system models for the same hardware. Although accurate modelling of all possible facets of hardware behaviour is an unrealisable goal, it is nevertheless possible to approximate an acceptable performance for a model by emphasising model characteristics whose significance is greatest regarding the specified performance of the hardware within a given problem domain. The project will proceed by concurrently, but independently, generating a hardware solution for a given problem domain accompanied by a formal model of the said solution. It is subsequently proposed to address the issue of modelling errors for the given systems via two distinct approaches:-\n1. An empirical investigation will proceed to compare the actual behavioural characteristics observed from the hardware with the predicted results of the associated model. A number of metrics will be investigated to ascertain the most contributing factors to system deficiencies. Subsequently the data will be used to enhance the original modelling process.\n2. A formal mathematical approach to comparing system and actual behaviour will be employed. Here the emphasis will be on the application of formal logic to represent the requirements of the system model. The novel significance is that the logic will be designed to emphasise the required characteristics of the model and allow it freedom to be inaccurate where such inaccuracies do not impinge on system performance. Theorem proving tools will be developed to ensure that model and hardware behaviour are acceptably close.These two approaches will be initially compared and contrasted; finally resulting in a suite of validation tools which may be employed to accurately address complex system validation issues. This dual approach will meet the need of ensuring acceptable modelling performance whilst not overburdening the modelling approach with hardware performance details which will not impact on system performance.",

A. A. (2012). Accounting students\u2019 need for important generic and technical accounting skills in university education and as accountants in the workplace (Thesis, Master of Management Studies (MMS)). University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand. Retrieved from https://hdl.handle.net/10289/7555\nRecent changes in the nature of accounting have led to an increasing amount of importance being placed on generic and technical accounting skills within the accounting workforce. However, universities providing training to accounting students do not always adequately teach these skills, such as communication skills, decision making skills and teamwork skills. Very few studies to date have focussed on the generic skills perceived as being important by accountants and accounting students in the Middle East and in Saudi Arabia in particular. This study aimed to research the generic and technical accounting skills perceived as being important by accounting students studying this subject at the major universities in Saudi Arabia and by accountants working at nine major companies in Saudi Arabia. The study employed a survey questionnaire that followed a mixed methods research protocol. Survey respondents were asked about the skills that they perceived as being important, how well the skills were taught and to what extent the skills were used during their degree course, their current level of skill the level of skills they currently held and the level of skill required to get a job in the accounting workforce, and the comparative importance of generic skills compared to technical accounting skills. Survey respondents were also asked to rank a selection of generic skills (communication skills, interpersonal skills, problem solving skills, capacity for analysis and presentation skills) and technical accounting skills in order of importance, and were asked whether there were other generic and technical accounting skills that were important in the workplace. The study explored the differences and similarities between the views of accounting students and accountants, and also the similarities and differences between different subgroups as follows:\n\uf0b7 Undergraduate students vs. postgraduate accounting students,\n\uf0b7 Male students vs. female accounting students,\n\uf0b7 Accountants working for government organisations vs. those working at non-government organisations,\n\uf0b7 Male vs. female accountants,\nOverall, the study found that the responses of the accountants and the accounting students matched quite closely. One major difference between the two groups was that accounting students were much more likely to be unsure as to the level of skill needed in order to get a job. Accountants were also more likely than accounting students to rate the technical accounting skills above the generic skills. Another very striking finding was that presentation skills were consistently rated as the least important skill by all groups and that it was the skill area that was least likely to have been covered by the accounting degree course. The reasons for this may be cultural or may arise from uncertainty about the definition of \u201cpresentation skills\u201d. The findings of this study differed from others in that the accountants in our survey were more likely to consider technical accounting skills as being more important than generic skills. This may be a result of culture and the Saudi Arabian context. These findings suggest that further work in the Saudi Arabian context is necessary.\nMaster of Management Studies (MMS)\nDavey, Howard\nLow, Mary",

Instead of focusing on negative statistics, it was of interest to investigate M\u0101ori students who had failed sufficient papers to initially be denied re-entry to university study, yet continued to attain their degrees, as a result of a successful appeal. M\u0101ori undergraduate students, who had successfully appealed from 2003-2012, were recruited for my research. The availability and utilisation of social supports were investigated, along with the decision to make an appeal, the role of cultural expectations, and barriers experienced by participants. A mixed method approach was utilised in this research through use of an adapted overarching Kaupapa M\u0101ori framework, statistical analysis, and 13 interviews. My research found that social supports were beneficial for participants throughout their appeal, as they provided: emotional, instrumental, appraisal, and informational support. Although the social supports utilised by participants were satisfactory, barriers to accessing formal supports were also found, which included: perceived stigma having failed their papers, pride, as well as being whakam\u0101. The appeal process was a beneficial intervention from the University of Waikato, which provided participants another opportunity to overcome the factors that contributed to their initial failure. Post appeal, participants implemented strategies to address and reduce their factors in order to become academically engaged. Participants were deemed to be resilient from their continued pursuit of degree attainment, implementation of their strategies, and their use of perceived social supports.\nMasters-Awatere, Bridgette\nCurtis, Cate",

These films are extremely popular in all the segments and classes of the Pakistani society. For this very reason, Bollywood films regularly do very well in all types of the cinemas, whether it is a multiplex in a posh area or a single screen circuit cinema in the old city areas.\nDilwale, a Bollywood film released on the 18th December 2015 is also proving very successful. Till date, it has earned in 19.25 crore within two weeks, and with the third week in progress it is expected to cross the figure of 20 crores on upcoming weekend, a landmark only four other Bollywood films has achieved.\nDilwale is also the most successful film of Shahrukh Khan in Pakistan surpassing the record of Happy New Year (2014). Dilwale\u2019s business is slightly impacted by the release of the Urdu film Ho Mann Jahan on the 1st January 2016 as it is resulted in less number of shows. Still the film is registering favorable occupancy and is expected to continue its run for at least two more weeks. However it might not reach the all time Bollywood record in Pakistan of Dhoom3, which earned 25 crore in 2013.\nSource: http://boxofficedetail.com/view_post.php?value=6157",

        "title": "Connecting the Dots: Legacy | Rev. Shane L. Bishop",
        "raw_content": "Christianity, Faith, legacy, Relationships, Religion\nConnecting the Dots: Legacy\n1 As the time of King David\u2019s death approached, he gave this charge to his son Solomon:\n2 \u201cI am going where everyone on earth must someday go. Take courage and be a man.\n3 Observe the requirements of the LORD your God and follow all his ways. Keep each of the laws, commands, regulations, and stipulations written in the law of Moses so that you will be successful in all you do and wherever you go.\n4 If you do this, then the LORD will keep the promise he made to me: \u2018If your descendants live as they should and follow me faithfully with all their heart and soul, one of them will always sit on the throne of Israel.'\u201d I Kings 2: 1-4 (NLT)\nThis blog series is called \u201cConnecting the Dots.\u201d In it I am going to explore how people of faith approach life differently than those who do not follow Jesus.\nLet\u2019s begin with the final scene and work backwards from there. To do that, we open with a dying King David\u2019s instructions at the end of his life to his son and successor Solomon. David had been king for forty years and had lived long enough to see how both good decisions and bad decisions play out. He had stayed loyal to God and displayed an incredible capacity for God; that is what defined his legacy. He expanded the territory of Israel and was handing to his son a more stable kingdom than was handed to him; that is what defined his reign. But he had also committed a great sin by murdering one of his thirty best soldiers to steal his wife, had shed a lot of blood and had been a terrible father. These are the things that defined his personal life. To say David\u2019s legacy was a mixed bag would be one of the great understatements of the Bible!\nAs you read the David narrative and read his Psalms, there is an undeniable cause and effect going on that provides for us both an inspirational and a cautionary tale. David loved God and David loved worship but he could not quite figure out how those huge positives could inform, guide and shape the other aspects of his life. That is one thing I like about being fifty-three years old, you look over your life at the decisions you have made and you can see how they played out. There is really nowhere to hide, at fifty-three, we are mentally, vocationally, relationally, spiritually and physically the sum of our decisions. If the sum of your decisions has brought you to a good place on this day, praise God and keep on keeping on! But if they have brought you to a difficult place, I have some hope for you today!\nLet\u2019s explore David\u2019s instructions to Solomon:\n1) David was concerned about legacy Gave this charge to his son For me, this is all tied up in a name. My dad was the first serious Christian of the Sunfield Bishops. His life redefined the name and it was handed to me. I will do my best with that name and hand it to Zec who will hand it to Elijah and Isaac. There is nothing more valuable than a good name and David knew it. It is the task of every man to improve on the name we were given!\n2) David told Solomon to man up Take courage and be a man Christianity is not for the weak of heart. Joshua said over and over, \u201cBe strong and of good courage\u201d because serving God in a fallen world will require plenty of both. Being a godly man is hard. Being a good husband is hard. Being a good father is hard. So get over it, cowboy up and get at it. I saw a great sign this week, it read, \u201cFather Day celebrates faithful fathers. To all you deadbeat dads, we will celebrate you on April Fools Day.\u201d Bam! Man up, accept responsibility, work hard, stop making excuses, give sacrificially, get it done, love God, love people and if you have not done any of this to this point, you can start today!\n3) David told Solomon to follow God explicitly Follow all his ways David followed most of God\u2019s laws but the ones he refused to follow cost him dearly. He was really good at \u201cnot having any gods before me\u201d but much weaker on \u201cthou shall not commit adultery.\u201d My dad used to tell me when I was a teen-ager, \u201cIt takes a lifetime to gain a good reputation and one night to lose it.\u201d You can do 99% of everything right but that 1% mistake can cost you everything! The second you forget that reality, you are in real trouble.\n4) David offered spiritual advice Keep each law and command (you can\u2019t keep 2000 commands so keep one and repeat 2000 times) You can\u2019t keep the law if you don\u2019t know the law and you won\u2019t have the strength to live what you know until you know God. A godly legacy will not be produced by our strength, we are not that strong; it will be empowered by a God who gives us strength to keep one command at a time! Don\u2019t think in terms of getting everything right, that is impossible, just get what is in front of you right and then repeat!\n5) David linked cause and effect If you abide by this charge, our family will forever sit on the throne David knew that we reap what we sow. If you sow weeds in with the crop, the weeds will always win. But if you sow good seed, you have nothing to look forward to but good things! David knew that he had sowed too many weeds in with the crop; it did not detract from his legacy but it detracted from the quality of his life. He hoped his son would do better.\nAs we embark upon our journey, I would like to begin at the end. Where do I want to end up? Here is my life statement at fifty-three. I want to leave a legacy for Christ that lasts beyond my lifetime. I want to be remembered as a man who had passion for connecting people to Jesus Christ, kept his promises, loved his family, was a good friend, was true to his word and was relentless concerning what God called him to do. With that we have a beginning and an ending on the table, it is time to start the car and pull out of the driveway.\nI have an app on my phone simply called Navigation. It somehow knows where I am (which seems creepy); I tell it where I want to go and it tells me how to get from here to there. There is something that fascinates me about the driving instructions it offers; they are significantly more detailed at the end than they are in the middle. It appears having a good finish is the most complicated parts of any journey. You don\u2019t just have to get close, you have to get THERE!\nLegacy is much more the sum of a million small decisions than the effects of one great decision. Legacy is cumulative in its effect and is determined by where you end up, not where you started. Here are some core values that guide me in the pursuit of legacy. First of all my mission. I exist to connect people with Jesus Christ. For me, anything that interferes with, damages or limits that mission is a temptation and a snare. That is why I am not going to give you every thought I have on politics, current events or social issues. What I am going to do is help you connect with Jesus Christ and understand the Bible so you can form your own positions on politics, current events and social issues.\nHere are some reflections on legacy I have picked up over the years that always seem to lead me where I really want to go.\nA Navigation Map to Legacy\n1) Do the right things the right way and you will get the right results in the right time We reap what we sow but we don\u2019t reap today what we sow today\u2026\n2) Remember you can\u2019t change yesterday\n3) Remember you can define tomorrow Right now forward!\n4) Be faithful in the mundane of the middle\n5) How you start is not nearly as important as how you finish\n6) Remember you are a new creation\n7) Come clean on sin\n8) Get help where you need it\n9) Trusting God in small things is trusting God in large things\n10) Remember Satan wants to destroy you\nA few years back I received a letter informing me that the writer wishes our church and especially its Senior Pastor took more stands on social issues and political positions. I get that, I really do. As I was considering the content of the letter, something struck me. In a day and time when churches and denominations all across America are defining themselves by their stands on social issues. Jesus didn\u2019t do that at all\u2026ever. In fact, one of the great disappointments concerning Jesus in his own time was that in an Israel obsessed with the current reality of Roman occupation, Jesus didn\u2019t have a thing to say about the greatest political issue of his day. When they tried to force him to offer political commentary publicly, to speak to the issues of the day, he asked whose face was pressed upon on a silver coin and replied, \u201cGive to Caesar what is Caesar\u2019s and give to God what is God\u2019s.\u201d I am guessing he got lots of letters.\nJesus flat out refused to allow his culture to set his agenda. Had Jesus spent his time teaching on culturally \u201crelevant\u201d things like current events, politics or social issues, his central message would not have transcended his culture. Jesus dealt with really big things like hope, faith, justice, love, hate, forgiveness, hypocrisy, truth and salvation. It was his genius. He knew that once you answer the big questions (your core values), the smaller ones get really easy (how to live those out). Unlike modern religious culture today worldwide, Jesus never gave in to the tyranny of the urgent\u2026or the pressure of the culture. I won\u2019t either. I believe that if we deal faithfully with the timeless aspects of the Gospel, those with an expiration date will find their proper place.\nAnd I am convinced that if this is where we make our collective stand on Christ and Christ alone, our individual legacies will be assured.

        "raw_content": "Stop, Search, Repeat\nStop and search can be an essential part of police work. But who can they stop, and can they stop anyone they like?\nKevin Gillan was headed to the Docklands to protest against an arms fair. He wanted to protest against dealing in violent weapons. Yet two police officers stopped and searched him for articles that could be used in connection with terrorism. Twenty minutes later, after the police had taken his printouts of information about the demonstration, they let him go. Later that day, Pennie Quinton, a journalist, was stopped and searched nearby on her way to film the protest. She wanted to make a documentary or to sell the footage. The police found nothing incriminating and, about 30 minutes later, let her leave. She didn\u2019t return because she felt intimidated and distressed.\nThey both complained that being stopped and searched by the police, under the powers given by UK anti-terrorism law, breached their human rights, including to respect for private and family life.\nThe Human Rights Court, in Gillan and Quinton v United Kingdom, agreed. The searches were unlawful interferences with Gillan\u2019s and Quinton\u2019s rights to respect for private life. The use of the powers to require a person to submit to a detailed search of themselves, their clothing and their personal belongings was a clear interference with their privacy. In some cases, the fact that the search was in public made the seriousness of the interference worse because of the humiliation and embarrassment involved.\nThe interference with the Gillan\u2019s and Quinton\u2019s private lives was not lawful. The lack of any requirement for reasonable suspicion meant there a clear risk of arbitrariness. The police had been given too broad a discretion, and the powers were insufficiently limited or subject to legal safeguards against abuse.\nThe Death Row Phenomenon\nNo. 14 of #50cases. It\u2019s the run-up to war in Iraq in 2003, and tensions are\u2026",

These stories are used as a source of data to analyze how 14 prospective secondary teachers understand the interaction between university\u2013based and school-based studies; the points of conjunction and disjunction that they experience. The paper shows that during the first teaching practicum their ideas about learners and pedagogy are challenged and argues that more can be done in both the university and school to make \u2018learning to teach\u2019 a more connected experience for prospective teachers. This will require greater collaboration in a number of areas, along with the removal of structural barriers such as time and money.\nLewis, F. (2007).

        "raw_content": "The Development and use in a Study of an Instrument to Measure Teacher's Perceptions of Their Effectiveness in Teaching Catholic Moral Principles to Middle and Upper Secondary Students\nPeter Cassidy, Edith Cowan University\nBachelor of Education Honours\nThe purpose of this study was to design an instrument and to use it in a study to measure teachers' perceptions of their effectiveness in teaching Catholic moral principles to middle and upper secondary students. As well, a final version of the instrument based on the results of the study and respondent feedback was to be developed. The study was justified on the following grounds: - less than half of Western Australia's Catholic secondary teachers of Religious Education are qualified to teach Religious Education. - Research findings (Fahy, 1980; Flynn, 1985; Angus, 1988) cast doubt on the effectiveness of moral education within the Catholic middle and upper secondary school. - No studies have measured teachers' perceptions of their effectiveness in teaching Catholic moral principles to senior secondary students. Following the distribution of the initial instrument to respondents, the study's focus was refined from the school to the classroom in Catholic middle and upper secondary moral education. The instrument was revised to accommodate this change in research focus for the purpose of data analysis and its content was based on the Catholic school models of effective teacher behaviour and effective moral education curriculum. The revised instrument was used in a study of 87 respondents from Catholic secondary schools in Western Australia and New South Wales. Cronbach alpha coefficients and face, content and construct validity assessments confirmed the instrument's reliability and validity. Means, t tests and response distribution percentages were obtained to evaluate data. The study found that fewer unqualified teachers than other teachers in the study perceived that their teacher effectiveness, teacher attributes and teaching strategies were effective in Catholic middle and upper secondary moral education. The study also found that less than half of unqualified teachers agreed that the Catholic secondary school's curriculum priorities, and in particular those related to the provision of a comprehensive guide to Catholic moral teachings, were effective for the needs of unqualified teachers of Religious Education in middle and upper secondary classes. Some adjustments were made to the revised instrument following the study. The final instrument is a self administered questionaire. It contains 29 items, 27 of which are six option Likert Scales, including 'Not Applicable' response options outside the scales. The final instrument was developed, potentially, for use in a larger study to evaluate Catholic middle and upper secondary moral education in Australia.\nCassidy, P. (1994).

It began as an extension of Sheila Aron\u2019s book; I\u2019m Glad I\u2019m Me, Weaving the Thread of Love From Generation to Generation. As Sheila provided her book to organizations working in the field of child abuse, she discovered there was no central entity providing easily accessible information to those seeking child abuse prevention, intervention, or treatment resources. Furthermore, although Sheila found many people were concerned about child abuse, most were unaware how they could personally contribute to ending the cycle.\nTo fill the gap, Sheila created The Thread Alliance with a dual purpose in mind: 1) to provide comprehensive information regarding Houston-area child abuse prevention, intervention, and treatment resources; and 2) to reach out and encourage individual and community participation in ending child abuse.\nTTA is dedicated to achieving the following five goals:\nEducate and inform the public about strategies and resources to nurture children.\nEngage the community to become involved in preventing child abuse.\nEducate and inform the public regarding resources available to prevent impending child abuse or help if abuse has already happened.\nEngage the community to become actively involved in the rewarding experience of empowering child abuse survivors to heal and thrive.\nEncourage child abuse-related organizations/agencies, regardless of where they lie on the spectrum of prevention to treatment, to form a professional alliance.\nAll children deserve a childhood free of abuse.

We had not been down that way for the blooms in a couple of years, and since the weekend had brought with it such beautiful weather, it seemed like a fun enough way to spend a leisurely afternoon.\nThe blooms were beautiful as they are each year, and walking amongst these old trees makes you feel as though you're in a winter wonderland of petals instead of snow. It's hard not to sigh a few times here and there as you take in the beauty.\nAt the end of our walk around Tidal Basin we paused for a bit to take in the Martin Luther King, Jr Memorial. We had not had a chance to visit the relatively new memorial since it was installed.\nWhile reading some of his most famous quotes, that had been engraved on the memorial, I thought of how powerful his words are still today. So many of the quotes deal with us understanding each other and placing the importance of all of humanity above anything else. And here we were, amongst the beautiful cherry blossoms with thousands of others from all over the world, and at that moment none of the strife, or conflict, or inequality that exists in the world mattered.

        "raw_content": "May 27, 1945: Boo Ferriss one-hits White Sox for sixth consecutive win\nDave \u201cBoo\u201d Ferriss, an ex-G. I. discharged from the Army Air Corps in February 1945, began his major league career with an astonishing eight consecutive wins in 1945. The start of his career was as unlikely as any player before him, since he had minimal time as a professional player prior to his debut.1 In his first five starts for the Boston Red Sox, Ferriss hurled three shutouts and two additional complete games, including a record 22 1/3 consecutive scoreless innings.\nPitching on three days\u2019 rest for the first time in his brief career, Ferriss drew the starting assignment against the Chicago White Sox in the first game of a Sunday doubleheader on May 27. The right-hander was facing the White Sox for the second time of the season, having shut them out in the first encounter, 2-0.\nThe White Sox were entering the game in third place in the standings, with five games separating them and the sixth-place Red Sox. Left-hander Eddie Lopat (2-2) was the starting pitcher for the White Sox on a day in which an estimated twenty-seven thousand over coated fans attended at Fenway Park.\nFerriss had a good outing against the White Sox in his shutout win against them on May 18, but his performance on May 27 was even better. He allowed only one hit while facing 28 batters. The only other baserunners came via a walk and an error.\nThe lone hit off of Ferriss came in the 2nd inning by Tony Cuccinello. Left-fielder Bob Johnson came close to catching Cuccinello\u2019s hit with a sliding catch attempt.2Mike Tresh drew the lone walk in the 3rd inning. Then after Oris Hockett reached base on an error by Ben Steiner in the 4th inning, Ferriss retired the last 17 batters in order.\nOn the other hand, the Red Sox banged out thirteen hits and seven runs against Lopat, who lasted six innings.\nThe Red Sox scored three runs in the 1st inning on four singles and a walk, with Pete Fox and Jack Tobin accounting for the RBIs. In the 4th inning, the Red Sox scored two more runs on RBI doubles by Tom McBride and Bob Johnson. Their final two runs occurred in the 6th inning on a sacrifice fly by Tobin and Bob Garbark\u2019s flyball on which the White Sox center fielder made an error. McBride led the Red Sox with three hits.\nThe 7-0 win by Ferriss continued his mastery over American League opponents. His ERA was an astounding 0.50 (51 scoreless innings in 54 innings pitched) after his fourth shutout and sixth consecutive victory.\nFerriss\u2019s impressive start to his career recalled another sensational rookie performance by Harry Krause of the Philadelphia A\u2019s in 1909. Krause recorded ten straight victories to start the season, including six shutouts and four complete games. During his streak, he yielded only five runs. However, one difference from Ferriss\u2019s feat was that Krause actually pitched in four games for the A\u2019s in his debut season the season before.3\nAt midseason Ferriss was on pace for a 30-win season, but he struggled with asthma and had to settle for a 21-10 record. Many observers surmised that Ferriss\u2019s success in 1945 was due in large part to having faced weak lineups of opposing teams because of the shortage of experienced players during the war.\nIn addition to the sources mentioned in the notes, the author also consulted: Baseball-Reference.com and Retrosheet.org websites; Marc Z.

As they reach key points of transition in their youth, all children need support to stay on track toward a happy, satisfying adulthood. The Lenfest Foundation, which made a decision to close its doors in the next 15 years, is striving to make true impact now to create a \u201cnew normal\u201d for Philadelphia\u2019s generations to come.\nThe Lenfest Foundation called upon Sage to help define its direction as a foundation, and solidify its commitment to supporting all children and young adults throughout their younger years and into their adult life. As the Foundation refocuses its giving in three specific areas (early learning, middle school out-of-school time, and career pathways), and prepares to spend down in the coming years, Sage created clear, targeted key messages to drive all communications\u2014including the copy of a brand new website.\nAfter the message development, we worked with design firm P\u2019unk Avenue, who was charged with creating a new logo and site to accurately convey the Foundation\u2019s new direction. The messaging and new branding will be instrumental in The Lenfest Foundation\u2019s approach to ensure that each child in Philadelphia gains the education, knowledge, skills, and opportunities to have a fulfilling and productive life in adulthood.\n(*Photo: YouthBuild Philadelphia)",

        "raw_content": "What is RCIA for Teens?\nTeens (and children over the age of seven) who have not celebrated their Sacraments of Initiation will be brought to the Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist through the development, promotion, and implementation of the process presented in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.\nAt St. James, teens who are seeking Baptism and Eucharist meet with a Core Team Member to learn about their faith and the Catholic Church.\nMaybe your teen has been Baptized in another faith tradition other than the Catholic Church. This video does a great job addressing this.\nTeens who have been Baptized in the Catholic Church but who have not celebrated Eucharist are enrolled concurrently in our Religious Education program. They will attend additional sessions to help them better understand the Church and the Sacrament of the Eucharist. They will also prepare and learn about the Sacrament of Reconciliation which we celebrate prior to both Eucharist and Confirmation.\nIn preparation for Confirmation we often turn to Matthew Kelley's program Decision Point as a resource. Check out what he has to say about Confirmation.\nBaptism, Eucharist, Confirmation\nSigned, Sealed, Delivered....\nThe Church teaches us that Confirmation 'completes' Baptism. At Baptism we are anointed with the Oil of Catechumens and Sacred Chrism. Similarly, at Confirmation we are again anointed by the Bishop with Sacred Chrism as the Bishop says 'Be sealed with the Gift of the Holy Spirit'. This seal is a consecration (to make holy), representing the safeguarding by the Holy Spirit of the graces conferred at Baptism. It is as if Jesus Christ has 'signed his name' upon us, binding us to him so that one day we will ultimately be delivered to the Father when our lives here on earth are complete.\nLearn more about Sacramental Oils here.\nIt's all about Grace...\nQuestion: What is a Sacrament?\nAnswer: A Sacrament is an outward sign instituted by Christ to give grace.\nWhat's an \"Outward Sign\"?\nSince grace is a spiritual gift rather than a physical one, it is by its very nature something that we cannot see. So how do we know that we have received God's grace? And what IS grace? Grace is God's free, loving gift to us. It's not a thing, it's God's communicating to us, without our deserving it...it is simply a gift of God, from God for us.\nThat's why the \"outward sign\" of each sacrament is so important. The \"words and actions\" of each sacrament, along with the physical items used (bread and wine, water, oil, etc.), represent the underlying spiritual reality of the sacrament and \"make present . . . the grace that they signify.\" These outward signs help us to understand what is happening in our souls when we receive the sacraments.\nWhat Does It Mean to Say That the Sacraments Were \"Instituted by Christ\"?\nEach of the seven sacraments corresponds to an action taken by Jesus Christ during his life here on earth. Jesus received baptism at the hands of John the Baptist; He blessed the marriage at Cana through the miracle of the water-made-wine; He consecrated bread and wine at the Last Supper, declared that they were His Body and Blood, and ordered his disciples to do the same; He breathed on those same disciples and gave them the gift of his Holy Spirit; etc.\nWhen the Church administers the sacraments to the faithful, She recalls the events in Christ's life that correspond to each sacrament. Through the various sacraments, we are not only granted the graces that they signify; we are drawn into the mysteries of Christ's own life.\nHow Does a Sacrament Give Grace?\nWhile the outward signs\u2014the words and actions, the physical items\u2014of a sacrament are necessary to help us grasp the spiritual reality of the sacrament, they can also lead to confusion. The sacraments are not magic; the words and actions aren't the equivalent of \"spells.\" When a priest or bishop performs a sacrament, he isn't the one providing grace to the person receiving the sacrament.\nIn the sacraments \"Christ himself is at work: it is he who baptizes, he who acts in his sacraments in order to communicate the grace that each sacrament signifies.\" While the graces that we receive in each sacrament do depend on us being spiritually ready to receive them, the sacraments themselves do not depend on the personal righteousness of either the priest or the person receiving the sacraments. Instead, they work \"by virtue of the saving work of Christ, accomplished once for all\".\nRegistration Form (coming soon)",

        "title": "Purdue should enjoy Old Oaken Bucket game as if it's Jeff Brohm's last, because it probably is",
        "raw_content": "Purdue should enjoy Old Oaken Bucket game as if it's Jeff Brohm's last, because it probably is\nJeff Brohm is coaching in his second make-or-break game at Purdue. Last year, the Boilermakers entered the Old Oaken Bucket game against Indiana needing a win to earn a postseason bid.\nThe location is different \u2014 the Boilermakers will travel to Bloomington \u2014 but the scenario is the same. With both teams entering the game with a 5-6 record, the winner goes bowling and the loser goes home. While this isn\u2019t exactly the situation Purdue fans had expected to be in following that 49-20 win over Ohio State a month ago, Saturday\u2019s game is one they should enjoy and cherish.\nIt\u2019s likely Brohm\u2019s last game wearing the black and gold.\nTwenty-three months ago, Purdue found its guy. If you wrote out the perfect description for the head coaching position in West Lafayette, Brohm was the ideal match. His high-powered offenses, heavy passing attack and offensive ingenuity was precisely the kickstart the program needed after four agonizing years under Darrell Hazell.\nAnd now, he\u2019s Louisville\u2019s top target. Not many other names have been attached with the job. And yes, Brohm has denied any speculation it\u2019s a \u201cdone deal,\u201d but he also hasn\u2019t said he\u2019ll be back in West Lafayette next year.\nFor even the most optimistic Boilermaker fan, that has to be a little unsettling.\nBrohm has said he doesn\u2019t like to move around a lot. He\u2019s also said that he loves the challenge at Purdue and elevating the program to the next level, something people \u201cdon\u2019t believe can be done\u201d in West Lafayette.\nHad any other program been inquiring, Brohm would put his phone on silent and enjoy his spacious office inside of the state-of-the-art Football Performance Center for the next six-to-eight years.\nBut Louisville is the one calling, and it\u2019s home. It\u2019s where he grew up, where he played and where he coached. And when home comes calling, it\u2019s hard not to listen. While Brohm doesn\u2019t seem like the kind of guy who would turn his back on a program after just two seasons, these opportunities come once in a lifetime.\nCompare the two jobs all you\u2019d like. The factors that most coaches would take into consideration \u2014 conference, money, facilities, recruiting, etc. \u2014 are all important. But when home is on the other end of that phone call, those other things don\u2019t carry as much weight.\nCredit: Thomas J. Russo-USA TODAY Sports\nIn a perfect world, Bobby Petrino would\u2019ve been able to occupy the job in Louisville for the next half-decade, allowing Brohm the opportunity to build something special in West Lafayette. To establish a winning culture and be revered as one of the top coaches in the business. That guy could leave town with his head held high before tackling the next challenge in his hometown.\nThis isn\u2019t a perfect world, though, and Brohm\u2019s opportunity is now. If he doesn\u2019t jump at the chance, who knows if and when his phone will be buzzing with another chance to return.\nBrohm has accomplished a lot in his two seasons at Purdue, something the fanbase should appreciate. A program that was stuck in the bottom of a well finally found its footing on level ground. There\u2019s been a bowl appearance \u2014 with a second-straight postseason bid on the line Saturday against Indiana \u2014 three wins over ranked opponents and a resurgence in recruiting.\nNot many coaches could\u2019ve breathed new life into a program that quickly. It\u2019s been a blessing for Purdue, but also a curse. If not for Brohm\u2019s instant success, Louisville might be looking elsewhere for Petrino\u2019s replacement.\nBrohm\u2019s future shouldn\u2019t be what Purdue focuses on this weekend, though. As the Boilermakers take the field against Indiana, Old Oaken Bucket and bowl berth on the line, there should be an appreciation for the program\u2019s return to relevance, and a fondness for the success the team has enjoyed in two short years.\nFor one last time, enjoy seeing David Blough throw for over 300 yards and D.J.

        "raw_content": "Mesh-Free Semi-Lagrangian Methods for Transport on a Sphere Using Radial Basis Functions\nVarun Shankar, University of Utah\nGrady B. Wright, Boise State UniversityFollow\nhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jcp.2018.04.007\nWe present three new semi-Lagrangian methods based on radial basis function (RBF) interpolation for numerically simulating transport on a sphere. The methods are mesh-free and are formulated entirely in Cartesian coordinates, thus avoiding any irregular clustering of nodes at artificial boundaries on the sphere and naturally bypassing any apparent artificial singularities associated with surface-based coordinate systems. For problems involving tracer transport in a given velocity field, the semi-Lagrangian framework allows these new methods to avoid the use of any stabilization terms (such as hyperviscosity) during time-integration, thus reducing the number of parameters that have to be tuned. The three new methods are based on interpolation using 1) global RBFs, 2) local RBF stencils, and 3) RBF partition of unity. For the latter two of these methods, we find that it is crucial to include some low degree spherical harmonics in the interpolants. Standard test cases consisting of solid body rotation and deformational flow are used to compare and contrast the methods in terms of their accuracy, efficiency, conservation properties, and dissipation/dispersion errors. For global RBFs, spectral spatial convergence is observed for smooth solutions on quasi-uniform nodes, while high-order accuracy is observed for the local RBF stencil and partition of unity approaches.\nThis is an author-produced, peer-reviewed version of this article. \u00a9 2018, Elsevier.

We believe that a knowledge of science empowers people to be critical and conscious citizens, and that an authentic, long-term engagement is the best foundation for this knowledge. Unfortunately, students from low-income communities continue to lack skills and interest in the sciences when compared to their more wealthy peers.\nAt The Schooba Academy, students from low-income communities are paired with a screened and qualified mentor, and together they complete the PADI Open Water Scuba Diver training course. Throughout the training process the student receives xx number of hours of 1:1 tutoring from their mentor on xx number of NYS Intermediate Level Science Core Curriculum Major Understandings.\nThe Schooba Academy fosters engagement by creating an experience where students are both learning and having fun. The use of SCUBA diving as an engaging, relevant, and experiential vehicle for the learning of science, and the providing of 1:1 tutoring ensure this is the case.\nAll of the start-up expenses for the program have been covered by an investment of $20,000 by Zach Rome. The Schooba Academy is planning for its inaugural class in September, 2011, where it will operate at an estimated budget of $4,700 per month. Approximately 10% of this will be generated through Earned Income of the program. The remainder ( $4,324) will need to be secured through Government/Public Funding, Private Giving, and Fundraising Events.\nFor at least the first year of operation, The Schooba Academy will serve only students from NYC.\nThe Schooba Academy works to foster a sustained engagement in science for students from low-income communities through learning how to SCUBA dive.\nThe Schooba Academy\u2019s objectives during the first year of operation are:\nTo teach xx number of NYS Intermediate Level Science Core Curriculum Major Understandings through the use of SCUBA diving\nTo provide each student with xx hours of 1:1 science tutoring with a qualified mentor\nFor 80% of tutored students to pass the PADI Open Water Scuba Diver Final Exam\nFor 80% of tutored students to sustain an interest in science for at least one year\n0 Responses to \u201cExecutive Summary, Mission, Objectives\u201d",

        "raw_content": "TOPICS:AstronomyCassini-Huygens MissionPlanetary SciencePopularSaturn\nA view from NASA\u2019s Cassini spacecraft shows Saturn\u2019s northern hemisphere in 2016 as that part of the planet nears its northern hemisphere summer solstice. A year on Saturn is 29 Earth years; days only last 10:33:38, according to a new analysis of Cassini data. Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute\nUsing new data from NASA\u2019s Cassini spacecraft, researchers believe they have solved a longstanding mystery of solar system science: the length of a day on Saturn. It\u2019s 10 hours, 33 minutes and 38 seconds.\nThe figure has eluded planetary scientists for decades, because the gas giant has no solid surface with landmarks to track as it rotates, and it has an unusual magnetic field that hides the planet\u2019s rotation rate.\nThe answer, it turned out, was hidden in the rings.\nDuring Cassini\u2019s orbits of Saturn, instruments examined the icy, rocky rings in unprecedented detail. Christopher Mankovich, a graduate student in astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz, used the data to study wave patterns within the rings.\nHis work determined that the rings respond to vibrations within the planet itself, acting similarly to the seismometers used to measure movement caused by earthquakes. The interior of Saturn vibrates at frequencies that cause variations in its gravitational field. The rings, in turn, detect those movements in the field.\n\u201cParticles throughout the rings can\u2019t help but feel these oscillations in the gravity field,\u201d Mankovich said. \u201cAt specific locations in the rings these oscillations catch ring particles at just the right time in their orbits to gradually build up energy, and that energy gets carried away as an observable wave.\u201d\nMankovich\u2019s research, published Jan. 17 by Astrophysical Journal, describes how he developed models of Saturn\u2019s internal structure that would match the rings\u2019 waves. That allowed him to track the movements of the interior of the planet \u2014 and thus, its rotation.\nThe rotation rate of 10:33:38 that the analysis yielded is several minutes faster than previous estimates in 1981, which were based on radio signals from NASA\u2019s Voyager spacecraft.\nThe analysis of Voyager data, which estimated the day to be 10:39:23, was based on magnetic field information. Cassini used magnetic field data, too, but earlier estimates ranged from 10:36 all the way to 10:48.\nScientists often rely on magnetic fields to measure planets\u2019 rotation rates. Jupiter\u2019s magnetic axis, like Earth\u2019s, is not aligned with its rotational axis. So it swings around as the planet rotates, enabling scientists to measure a periodic signal in radio waves to get the rotation rate. However, Saturn is different. Its unique magnetic field is nearly perfectly aligned with its rotational axis.\nThis is why the rings finding has been key to homing in on the length of day. Saturn scientists are elated to have the best answer yet to such a central question about the planet.\nThe idea that Saturn\u2019s rings could be used to study the seismology of the planet was first suggested in 1982, long before the necessary observations were possible.\nCo-author Mark Marley, now at NASA\u2019s Ames Research Center in California\u2019s Silicon Valley, subsequently fleshed out the idea for his Ph.D. thesis in 1990. Along with showing how the calculations could be done, he predicted where signatures in Saturn\u2019s rings would be. He also noted that the Cassini mission, then in the planning stages, would be able to make the observations needed to test the idea.\n\u201cTwo decades later, in the final years of the Cassini mission, scientists analyzed mission data and found ring features at the locations of Mark\u2019s predictions,\u201d said co-author Jonathan Fortney, professor of astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz and a member of the Cassini team. \u201cThis current work aims to make the most of these observations.\u201d\nCassini\u2019s mission ended in September 2017 when, low on fuel, the spacecraft was deliberately plunged into Saturn\u2019s atmosphere by the mission team, which wanted to avoid crashing the craft onto the planet\u2019s moons.\nThe Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Italian Space Agency. NASA\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of Caltech in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA\u2019s Science Mission Directorate, Washington. JPL designed, developed and assembled the Cassini orbiter. The radar instrument was built by JPL and the Italian Space Agency, working with team members from the U.S. and several European countries.\nPublication: Christopher Mankovich, et al., \u201cCassini Ring Seismology as a Probe of Saturn\u2019s Interior.

        "raw_content": "Brandon Giesegh\nSpeed-walking or The Walking Dead? It\u2019s best to let the tree decide.\nTechnically, its full name is Gradient Boosting of Decision Trees. Decisions trees are a machine learning method of determining relationships by using a hierarchical set of decision points- thus, creating a tree structure (like the one you see in this handy-dandy graphic, that can be used to decide whether you should go play outside, or stay in and binge-watch whatever Netflix recommends).\nThe power of the algorithm comes in the boosting, in which the algorithm works through an iterative process to minimize the error of the decision tree using the train and test datasets.\nNow that you\u2019re all honorary Decision Tree Experts, let\u2019s take a look at my top 3 takeaways from this new feature:\n1. It\u2019s (Still) Considered the Best\nDespite being around since the mid 1990\u2019s, Gradient Boosting is still the go-to data science competition forecasting algorithm. Just like regression techniques it allows you to model relationships between variables, but one of its greatest benefits is the ability to model complex non-linear relationships without having to transform data. This means you can say goodbye to using the natural log in a linear regression model and letting the algorithm determine the relationship. Don\u2019t quite believe me? An empirical comparison of different learning algorithms found that\u2026\nWith excellent performance on all eight metrics, calibrated boosted trees the best learning algorithm overall. Random forests are close second. (Caruana et al., 2005)\nWhich leads into the next takeaway\u2026\n2. Calibration Takes Time\nThe key word in the results of the study, calibrated. The algorithm is only the best when it is properly calibrated. Since it only has 3 calibration parameters (Maximum Number of Trees, Maximum Tree Depth, and Learning Rate) don\u2019t expect to get the best results with a single try. Calibration takes time, and to achieve the best results it needs to be done for each data set. This means finding the best set of parameters for every planning object or group of planning objects. You\u2019ll find yourself to be like Goldilocks moving from one set of parameters to the next until you find the set that is just right, and then you get to begin again with another dataset. When you take the time to tackle tuning the Gradient Boosting Algorithm, find someone who understands how the algorithm works to save some time, because overfitting the data is very common and frustrating.\n3. It\u2019s a Big Step Forward\nThe release of this new model allows you to have access to an advanced forecasting technique that normally requires programming in Python or R. By eliminating the programming barrier to entry for both the gradient boosting algorithm and the time series analysis, SAP IBP has stepped forward towards delivering a much more robust forecasting and demand planning tool. I look forward to the future releases to come to the demand planning application.\nWant to learn more about SAP IBP?

        "raw_content": "Far Cry 5 Revealed; Montana Setting Confirmed\nAfter taking gamers to the Stone Age with the last entry in the eponymous open-world first-person shooter franchise, Far Cry 5 (from chief developer and publisher Ubisoft) is all set to make a big splash when the new title hits store shelves - and the latest reveal for the upcoming game confirms the previously-rumored Montana setting. Ever since the release of the first entry in the wildly successful and best-selling Far Cry series in 2004, fans of the Ubisoft original property have explored many thrillingly dangerous locales around the world with guns-a-blazing.\nFollowing the release of the spin-off entry that was Far Cry Primal last year, Ubisoft is definitely aiming to get back to the roots of the contemporaneously set sandbox franchise, and Far Cry 5 is shaping up to be a worthy successor to its immediate thematic predecessor (in the form of Far Cry 4, which was released in 2014). To make matters even more interesting, the latest announcement regarding the next Far Cry installment has Ubisoft aiming to take the first-person shooter action stateside, with a thoroughly American setting.\nAccompanying an official press release issued by Ubisoft, the latest piece of key art from the team currently developing Far Cry 5 depicts the setting of the new game to be none other than the great American state of Montana (see below). After previously exploring the teeming jungles of the Himalayan region in Far Cry 4, the folks over at Ubisoft apparently intend to take the franchise to a more domestic setting next.\nCritically well-regarded since its inception in the early 2000s, the titular Ubisoft franchise has maintained its status as one of the most well-liked and frequently played and purchased games of the 21st century. Following in that tradition, Far Cry 5 should provide for a Western-influenced American adventure set in Montana that aims to please longtime fans of the series.\nOnly time will tell how things continue to develop behind the scenes at Ubisoft, but with any luck Far Cry 5 will manages to build upon the key art featured above and build its Montana setting into a thrilling action-adventure sandbox for players to really sink their teeth into. On that note, here's to hoping for the very best from the latest entry in the storied video game series - and be sure to be on the lookout for the first Far Cry 5 trailer, which is due to premiere online this Friday.\nNEXT: Far Cry 5 Gameplay Details\nTags: far cry 5",

        "raw_content": "Review: The Ring Two\nShort version: Sadly, this superfluous sequel follows the time-honored Hollywood tradition of being vastly inferior to its predecessor. It has a few genuine scares, but for the most part it's kind of boring.\nI wanted to like this movie. I really did, but sadly, the mediocrity got in the way. And to be honest, it wasn't terrible; it was just okay. I wanted it to be great, like The Ring was great. I actually had my hopes up, mainly because Hideo Nakata, who directed the Ringu series on which this franchise was based, directed this one. I wanted to be scared, but The Ring and The Grudge were much scarier than this movie.\nBefore I go any farther, I want to clarify that to properly review this movie, I have to reveal some plot points from this movie's predecessor, The Ring. So if you haven't already seen The Ring, you should watch that first before you read this review. (It's a better movie anyway; trust me.) I won't reveal any crucial plot points from The Ring Two in this review, though. That policy hasn't changed.\nBefore I even saw this movie, the biggest question in my mind was whether a sequel to The Ring was truly necessary. It was genuinely scary, and it had an effective ending that resolved almost everything and kept Rachel Keller (played by Naomi Watts) and her son Aidan (played by David Dorfman) alive. So why make a sequel? Well, why does Hollywood ever make a sequel?\nThe story is set a few months after the events of the original movie. Now that everybody in upstate Washington is freaking out at anything that even looks like a VHS tape, Rachel decides her work there is done. She and Aidan move to Astoria, Oregon in the hopes of moving on with their lives. The problem is, almost immediately after they show up, a teenage boy turns up dead. It doesn't take Rachel long to figure out that there was a VHS tape involved. Before Rachel can even react to the realization that all the carnage in upstate Washington is about to repeat itself down in Oregon, she has a bigger problem to worry about. Her son Aidan is starting to act and look possessed. She quickly realizes that Samara, who caused all the trouble in the original movie, has not only stuck around, but she has taken over Aidan. To make matters worse, being taken over by Samara has some distinct disadvantages such as dropping his body temperature to 90 degrees (which is usually fatal) and making him act really weird sometimes. That causes Rachel's coworker (played by Simon Baker) and a psychiatrist at the hospital where Aidan is being treated (played by Elizabeth Perkins) to suspect child abuse. Will Rachel's son be taken away from her? Will she be able to figure out how to stop Samara again, now that Samara is manifesting herself in a different way? And how can she get Samara out of her son if she can't even visit him?\nOne problem with sequels is that in many cases, the director of the sequel is not the same person who directed the original. In this case, director Hideo Nakata's directing style is noticeably different from that of Gore Verbinski, who directed The Ring. That's always a big risk, because audiences come to expect a certain style and flow from the original movie. If they're not there in the sequel, it could backfire. While The Ring was scary and suspenseful, The Ring Two tends to move very slowly and methodically. There are a few genuinely scary scenes, but for the most part it's kind of boring.\nThe acting was decent overall. Naomi Watts does a good job, as always. David Dorfman, who plays Rachel's son Aidan, came across as dull and wooden at first, but then I had to remind myself that he had to play two different characters \u2014 the regular kid and the kid who was possessed by Samara. In that sense, I thought he did a very good job because I was never in doubt as to when something wacky was happening with him. There are cameos from Elizabeth Perkins, Sissy Spacek and Gary Cole. The cameos by Spacek and Perkins fit into the story quite well, but Cole's cameo was a pointless waste of his talents. Cole is one of my favorite actors; he deserved a better role than that. Yeeeaaahhh... so if you could just go ahead and sort of cast Gary Cole in better roles from now on... that would be great, m'kay?\nOverall, I didn't find the movie terrible, but it certainly wasn't great. I wondered why it was even made in the first place. For one thing, it reminded me of those crappy television shows where a character dies, then next week they're back and the writers come up with some lame excuse for why they didn't die. I hate those kinds of storylines, but that's almost exactly what happened in this movie. If Samara can possess people, why didn't she just do that in the first film? Maybe the weather in Astoria was more conducive to such a thing... As for the possession storyline, my goodness, where have I seen that before? Maybe The Exorcist? Or how about something more recent, like Matrix Revolutions? Quite honestly, the whole movie felt stale and regurgitated. Every plot point, no matter how surprising it was meant to be, felt like I had already seen it before. In their mad rush to capitalize on hit movies, Hollywood needs to remember that some movies don't need sequels. They're good enough to stand on their own.\nIf you really enjoyed The Ring and you want to see this one for the sake of completeness, set your expectations appropriately low and you should be okay. Otherwise, don't bother.",

Our ultimate goals are church-planting and training nationals for ministry leadership. Since our move to CZ in 2006 we have been working closely with Marek\u2019s home church in Brno, ministering in neighborhoods through kids\u2019 clubs, cultural events and through the establishment of a Christian library. Marek has served as an elder in this church and as youth leader, as well as teaching weekly Bible seminars. We have also been working with Word of Life Camps near the city of Brno, Marek in the leadership of counseling staff and Julie in helping with the English program. In addition, in 2008 we were invited to share in the church plant ministry in the nearby town of Kurim. Marek has been privileged be part of the teaching there and we value the relationships we\u2019ve made.\nWith the goal of church planting, we moved to the town of Tisnov, which is 20 kilometers outside of Brno. It has a population of 10,000 and is growing rapidly with new housing developments. There is no evangelical church in this town. Our desire is to see God bring people to know Him and to build His church here. With God\u2019s help and guidance, we have begun church meetings, Bible studies, and building relationships with local schools and community centers through English programs. Please pray as we begin this new phase of ministry in Czech Republic.\nMarek is from Brno, Czech Republic. He earned a Master of Divinity degree from Moody Graduate School in Chicago. He also has a previously earned a Master\u2019s Degree in Education of History and Geography from Masaryk University in Brno, CZ. Julie is from the U.S. and graduated from Moody Bible Institute in December 1997 with a B.A. degree in Print Media Communications. In 2004, she completed a certificate to Teach English as a Second Language, also from Moody Bible Institute.\nWe moved to the Czech Republic as missionaries in June 2006 and now have a daughter Ruby, and twin boys Luke and Henry.\nEfthemes and Irene Sioukiouroglou (Fellowship International Mission, Athens, Greece) help refuges in their native Greece meeting physical needs, such as food, clothing, and employment. Since Greece is a crossroads between Africa, Asia, and Europe refugees including Kurds, come from Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan and Turkey. Having been displaced from their countries they need help for themselves, their families & children.\nOur heart is to see the nations worshipping God the way that He created them to within their cultural context.",

        "title": "Caroline Walker - Part 3 - Painting Women and the home / News",
        "raw_content": "News / Caroline Walker - Part 3 - Painting Women and the home\nAs I mentioned, I had started painting figures in domestic interiors at the end of my BA in 2004. These were mainly women, though not exclusively. Initially I was drawn to painting women because I had always loved this since I was a little girl, though I wasn't sure why. Also, in these early paintings it was my friends, mostly female, that were the models. It wasn't until my MA that I focused on painting just women and it was at this point that I became interested in the politics of the imagery I was using, and it made sense for me as a female painter to be addressing the representation of women.\nI'm interested in the performance of femininity and how a gendered gaze might play out in my paintings. My female subjects inhabit different archetypes both in the home, such as the housewife, cleaner, mistress, or nanny or lady of the house, as well as wider female archetypes such as the witch, crone, seductress, femme fatale, mother, daughter and many others. These are confused in my characters though, either through their incongruous actions or often their dress. For example, a woman may be seen cleaning a kitchen floor, but topless and wearing gold lam\u00e9 trousers. Or as in 'Illuminations' where the nude girl standing on the table changing the light bulb is cast in a warm light like a nymph from a rococo painting. The performance of femininity becomes one of absurdity.\nI also want the audience to be constantly changing position, taking on different archetypes of the viewer: in one painting they are voyeurs, while in another they might be complicit somehow in the unfolding narrative. I'm interested in the mechanisms at work in how we relate to particular subjects that have evolved through a history of image-making.\nUntil 2011 I always painted single figures, focusing on a voyeuristic relationship between the viewer and the subject but I felt that this was too limiting in the long term so I started introducing more figures. This shifted the focus away from a simple relationship of voyeurism or projection to a more complex relationship of power and hierarchy being played out between these different characters.\nThe themes of veiling, concealment and surveillance are recurrent in my practice. Characters in the paintings watch each other, await an unseen presence, or literally control each other's sight, while in the unpopulated scenes, the viewer's position as voyeur is reversed, themselves becoming the subject of some unseen gaze. I've tried to avoid the narrative suggestion becoming too leading or prescriptive. Hopefully what the viewer sees is something that is left in limbo, between a painted reality and the subject matter, which is often another fabrication\n\u201cI'm interested in the performance of femininity and how a gendered gaze might play out in my paintings\u201d",

        "title": "Growing Healthy Food - Sharon's Natural Gardens",
        "raw_content": "by Sharon | Feb 6, 2019 | About the gardens | 0 comments\nStory by Monica Scott, originally published in GoingGreenDelmarva.com\nIn today\u2019s world, there is quite a disconnect between people and the food they eat. On the Delmarva Peninsula, though, there seems to be a surging interest in the \u201cbuy local\u201d movement, and even more organic and free-range opportunities than one might think, as well as a re-birth of farmers\u2019 markets and community-supported agriculture. But, for the majority, food is still seen as something you buy, take home and then eat.\nHowever, for people like Sharon Carson and her family \u2013 who run Sharon\u2019s Natural Gardens in Delaware, using biodynamic principles \u2013 this represents the opposite of how it should be. \u201cWe are so far disconnected from our food now, it\u2019s scary. Small is beautiful, and you should feed your family first and sell what\u2019s left over.\u201d\nWhile that outlook is the opposite of what many farmers in the culture are doing, it is what the Carsons live by. Since 1978, they have been farming without chemicals or commercial manures and without using GMOs or hybrid seeds, and they began practicing biodynamics in 1990. Sharon grew up nearby and has been gardening for the past 50 years, and is eager to share her knowledge with others. \u201cI\u2019ve been gardening for 50 years without chemicals and I\u2019d like to share what I have learned.\u201d\nAccording to the Biodynamics Farming and Gardening Association, the term \u201cbiodynamics\u201d was coined after \u201ca group of practicing farmers, concerned with the decline of the soil, sought the advice of Dr. Rudolf Steiner, founder of anthroposophy, who had spent all his life researching and investigating the forces that regulate life and growth.\u201d The idea was brought to the United States in the 1930s by Dr. Ehrenfried Pfeiffer, who had worked with Steiner. The association describes biodynamic farming and gardening and says the practice \u201clooks upon the soil and the farm as living organisms. It regards maintenance and furtherance of soil life as a basic necessity if the soil is to be preserved for generations, and it regards the farm as being true to its essential nature if it can be conceived of as a kind of individual entity in itself \u2014 a self-contained individuality.\u201d While biodynamic agriculture pre-dates the term \u201corganic\u201d in agriculture, it uses many of the same principles of organic agriculture, such as farming without synthetic chemicals, composting, etc., but goes further into the \u201cinterconnectedness\u201d of the soil, with \u201ccosmic rhythms\u201d and lunar cycles with special plant preparations.\nCarson says she views biodynamics as pioneering work in a world that only looks at production. \u201cIt views agriculture as working in harmony with nature, healing and renewing it so that our future will be better, as opposed to agribusiness, which has a more extractive point of view. An acre of diversified agriculture is always far more productive than an acre of one crop \u2013 especially when you grow organically and take environmental factors as part of the picture,\u201d she emphasized.\nThe Carsons live on their homestead and grow everything from berries to corn to cantaloupe to peppers. The farm also has horses that they are starting to use for farm work, and they save their own seeds. They have seedlings and other plants available for purchase, as well as fresh produce, jellies, seeds and medicinal herbs. Everything is recycled or used in a sustainable way to live \u201clightly in the land.\u201d The homestead is like going back in time to the farms of yesteryear, from the treehouse \u2013 which is located in a plum tree and is secured with no nails and sided with free slab wood from a sawmill near Greenwood \u2013 to the old horse stables that are built with recycled barn materials from an old barn on the property and the new stalls, which use tin from a recycled commercial chicken house. There is no use for a dishwasher here, no dryer. And they generate their heat by wood alone.\nAfter leaving college, Carson said she moved to New Mexico, joined a commune and met her husband before finally settling back in the area just about a mile from where she grew up. Growing up, she lived with her grandparents, who were farmers, on a farm she explained as being \u201cmuch different than it is today.\u201d \u201cMy grandparent\u2019s farm was a very diversified farm \u2013 like many farms that have all but disappeared from our rural landscape, that have been replaced by factory farms. We had cows, goats, sheep, pigs, ducks, as well as a commercial hatching egg production houses. We did our own butchering, smoked meats, and canning and freezing, and raised most of our foods. We cannot continue the current type of industrial agriculture,\u201d she said of most modern farms, adding that it doesn\u2019t help the soil or create diversity.\n\u201cThe cost of the industrial model is reflected in the loss of our health and the planet\u2019s health,\u201d said Carson. \u201cWe need people employed and engaged in growing healthy foods again, even if just for themselves,\u201d she said. Sharon offers classes in gardening (including seed starting, saving, composting, water systems, tillage raised beds, succession and companion planting, and cover crops), as well as classes in preserving foods, home butchering, hatching poultry, propagating plants, willow basket weaving, home winemaking, and herbs, and she offers tours by appointment.

        "raw_content": "Cross draped in pig parts at Twin Falls mosque was hate crime, police say\nTWIN FALLS \u2014 Police say someone draped a cross in butchered pig parts and left it at the Islamic Center of Twin Falls over the weekend. Authorities are calling it a hate crime.\nAbout 4 feet tall, the cross was wrapped in bacon, pig\u2019s feet and a tongue and was left in the parking lot.\nThe incident is the latest in a string of vandalism at Twin Falls\u2019 only mosque dating back to 2015, when anti-Muslim sentiments began to take hold as the community debated refugee resettlement.\nPolice were dispatched at 7:30 a.m. Saturday to the center at the 400 block of Addison Avenue. The center\u2019s caretaker found the cross, Twin Falls Police Lt. Terry Thueson said Monday.\n\u201cHate crimes such as malicious harassment are very serious and the Twin Falls Police Department takes these crimes very seriously,\u201d Thueson said in a statement released after the Times-News first reported the incident. \u201cThe Twin Falls Police Department will do everything within our means to identify those responsible and hold them accountable. Acts such as this cannot be ignored and will not be tolerated in our community.\u201d\nNo arrests have been made, and a police investigation is ongoing.\nImad Eujayl, spokesman for the Islamic Center of Twin Falls, said Monday he doesn\u2019t have a comment about the incident\nBut he added: \u201cAlways we have this approach to such incidents that it was done by one person who had extreme views or does not respect other people and that\u2019s it.\u201d\nHe said he can\u2019t apply a \u201cbroad brush stroke\u201d to the situation.\nA police officer canvassed the neighborhood near the Islamic Center on Saturday, talking with neighbors and checking to see if a pig carcass was left in the area. Under the rules of Islam, Muslims abstain from eating pork.\nPolice ask anyone with information about suspicious vehicles or activity in center\u2019s parking lot on Friday night or early Saturday morning to call the police at 208-735-4357.\nThe Council on American-Islamic Relations released a statement Monday calling on state and federal law enforcement to investigate the incident as a hate crime.\nThe council is the nation\u2019s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization.\n\u201cLocal, state and federal law enforcement authorities should investigate the apparent bias motive for this act of religious bigotry and intimidation targeting an American house of worship,\u201d spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said in the statement.\nThe organization said in the statement it has \u201cwitnessed an unprecedented increase in hate incidents targeting American Muslims and members of other minority groups since the election of Donald Trump.\u201d\nThe Islamic Center of Twin Falls and its members have received other threats in recent years. In 2015, the words \u201cHunt Camp?\u201d were written in gray spray paint across plywood boards covering windows at the center. Japanese-Americans were imprisoned at the Southern Idaho camp during World War II.\nEarlier that year, about 10 members of the Islamic Center \u2014 and their non-Muslim neighbors \u2014 received letters in the mail with two typed pages with passages from the Quran, and directly below them, passages from the Bible.\nA center spokesman told the Times-News in 2015 he felt the letters were a form of harassment.

        "raw_content": "Cute movie and tv show couples\nElio and Oliver are a young couple from the movie and book Call Me by Your Name. Elio Perlman is a 17 year old boy who lives in the northern Italy region of Lombardy. Elio\u2019s father Professor Perlman takes in a different student each year, and this year it just so happens to be 24 year old Oliver. Their relationship has a rocky start: Elio has a girlfriend named Marzia and Oliver seemed to be interested in a girl also. As time goes on Elio and Oliver start to show feelings for each other and later start seeing each other. Oliver later comes clean to Elio about him trying to show Elio he liked him earlier in the movie. Oliver is meant to go on a trip alone, but Elio\u2019s parents let Elio go along, leading to a very romantic montage of the two running around the beautiful Italian scenery but sadly everything good has to come to an end.\nTate and Violet are also another young couple but from the first season of the TV show American Horror Story. Violet Harmon, the daughter of Ben and Vivien Harmon, is a 15 year old girl who moved to California with her dysfunctional family to have a new start. At first she was very uninterested in the thought of moving into a new house until she met one of her dad\u2019s patients, Tate Langdon. Violet finds Tate interesting and different so she decides to continue the relationship, despite her dad\u2019s worries about the patient. Tate is soon revealed to be a ghost from the house who was killed in Violet\u2019s new room. Violet soon becomes a ghost, as well as her mom and dad so they are stuck in the house together forever. Violet hates Tate, accusing him to be a monster and telling him to leave her alone so she will never see him again, but their story is not over. In the newest season of American Horror Story they make up thanks to a very special girl named Madison and they fall in love all over again.\nJane and Calogero, also known as Cee from the movie A Bronx Tale are a couple of kids that were never meant to be, but they made it happen. Calogero was a teenager in the Bronx who was taken under the wing of a mobster names Sonny who makes him a part of his gang life which doesn\u2019t go on well with Calogeros father, who\u2019s a bus driver. Calogero goes to school and notices a young African-American girl named Jane. In the 1960\u2019s, it wasn\u2019t the best idea for the two to date and it shows through the conflict of the two families. In the end, love comes out on top.\nDamon and Elena from The Vampire Diaries isn\u2019t just any high school love story. Elena starts off as Stefan Salvatore\u2019s girl, who is the younger brother of Damon. Over time Elena grows closer to Damon and they soon falll in love, but she\u2019s still in love with Stefan who she\u2019s destined to be with. Soon Damon and Elena start dating despite all of Damon\u2019s wrong doings to her her family and her friends.\nThe movie My Girl will make you sad no matter who you are. The relationship between Vada Sultenfuss and Thomas J. Sennett is the purest thing. Both Vada and Thomas are outcasts; Vada being somewhat of a Tomboy and Thomas being kind of a nerd. They grew up super close and even promised to be each others first kiss. Even though they poked fun at each other they cared about each other more than anything. Watching this movie and seeing how close the two are makes the ending even sadder.",

        "raw_content": "Yarn business on Barrington Street leaving \u2018obstruction\u2019\nThe Loop owner says scaffolding on Pacific Building hurting her business\nApril 4, 2016, 10:19 am ASTLast Updated: April 8, 2016, 4:29 pm\nThere has been scaffolding outside the Loop for some time. Terra Tailleur\nMimi Fautley is moving her yarn store after nearly 11 years. She wants to escape the scaffolding that has hidden her from view for almost a year and a half.\n\u201cIt probably could have, and should have killed my business, but it is pure stubbornness that\u2019s made me refuse, and has got me out from under the scaffolding,\u201d Fautley said.\nFautley owns The Loop located in the Pacific Building on Barrington Street. Scaffolding \u2014 not construction \u2014 has covered the building since November 2014.\n\u201cThere is no construction,\u201d she said. \u201cObstruction, we like to call it.\u201d\nThe scaffolding prevents bricks from the building\u2019s aging fa\u00e7ade from falling onto people. This has also dissuaded people from entering businesses in the Pacific Building, Fautley said.\nWhen Fautley moved into the building in 2005, it was owned by Steve Caryi, a major developer in Halifax. Caryi sold the building in 2007 to New Gen, a South Korean real estate developer. In 2013, Dongdu International took over.\nDDI is a Chinese real estate firm. Before making several land purchases in Nova Scotia in 2013, its only business in North America was the purchase of two skyscrapers in Detroit: the Free Press building and the David Stott building.\nOriginally, DDI promised to fix those buildings. Then after over a year of no work, it sold the Stott building for almost double the original price. It was announced in September that the Free Press building is also for sale, at nearly four times the original price.\nFautley sees parallels between DDI\u2019s activities in Detroit and the state of the Pacific Building. She wonders if the company is doing the same thing here.\n\u201cWhy would you not do the same thing if it worked out for you in the end last time?\u201d she said.\nMimi Fautley in her store. Terra Tailleur\nDDI turned to the city to help it improve the Pacific Building. In 2015, it received $100,000 through the Barrington Street Heritage Incentives Program specifically for fa\u00e7ade improvement. The money remains in a fund to be given to the company once the work is complete. As well, it received $160,500 for tax credits, which could be transferred to a new owner if it were to sell the building.\nWaye Mason, city councillor for Halifax South Downtown, said the renovations could cost upwards of $2 million due to the unique terra cotta material of the bricks. The Pacific Building itself is worth about $4 million.\nMason said there are dangers of imposing a set timeline for building owners to finish renovations.\n\u201cIf you push somebody too hard to do something they don\u2019t have the money to do, the default action for that owner is to apply to demolish,\u201d he said.\nFautley said she\u2019s seen her revenue plummet since the scaffolding went up. \u201cAlmost every month since has been lower than the previous year.\u201d\nIn Fautley\u2019s lease there is a clause that would, in theory, help ease some of her losses. It says if her monthly revenue had a 20 per cent loss from the previous year, she would receive half of her rent back for that month.\n\u201cThey (DDI) chose to interpret that as not applying in this situation because no actual work was being done,\u201d she said.\nThere is no commercial tenancy act in Nova Scotia that would be able to assist Fautley in a situation like this. Her only option would be to sue her landlord, which would potentially cost more than she would gain.\n\u201cI was asking for very little and they still refused to give me that, so it wasn\u2019t really worth my while to pursue (legal action). It would have at least cost me what I would have gotten,\u201d she said.\nAnother Nova Scotia project\nDDI\u2019s Eastern Shore project, called Crystal City, hasn\u2019t seen much progress.\nDDI purchased 1,200 hectares of land in Guysborough County in May 2014, saying it would invest $3 billion in residential developments catered to Chinese tourists.\nMarvin MacDonald, chief administrative officer of the Municipality of the District of St. Mary\u2019s, said DDI still has not applied for building permits. The district is working to create or amend bylaws to accommodate a larger development, such as DDI\u2019s proposed project.\nMacDonald said many details of the project have not been shared, but any employment opportunities for their community would be appreciated.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve encouraged them to break ground as soon as they possibly can,\u201d he said.\nFautley will miss her building\u2019s location, but sees her move as beneficial since she will only be moving further down Barrington Street.\n\u201cI\u2019m not going to lose a single customer by moving there,\u201d she said. \u201cI only stand to gain.\u201d\nMultiple calls were made to Stephen Dempsey, the Canadian adviser to DDI. He could not be reached for comment.\nCorrection: April 8, 2016: An earlier version of this story did not make it clear that the $100,000 heritage grant is only payable once the project is complete.",

It borders Saudi Arabia and Oman on the north and the east. To the south is the Guardafui Channel and Gulf of Aden, and to the west is the Red Sea. Yemen owns the island of Socotra (217 miles) to the south off the coast of East Africa. A person or thing from Yemen is called Yemeni. Yemen's capital city is Sana'a.\n\u0627\u0644\u062c\u064f\u0645\u0647\u0648\u0631\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u064a\u064e\u0645\u064e\u0646\u064a\u0629\nal-Jumh\u016br\u012byah al-Yaman\u012byah\nMotto: \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u060c \u0627\u0644\u0648\u064e\u0637\u064e\u0646\u060c \u0627\u0644\u062b\u064e\u0648\u0631\u0629\u060c \u0627\u0644\u0648\u064e\u062d\u062f\u0629 (Arabic)\n\"Allah, al-Watan, ath-Thawrah, al-Wahdah\" (transliteration)\n\"God, Country, Revolution, Unity\"\nAnthem: \"United Republic\"\nSana\u2018a\nYemeni, Yemenite\nAhmed Obeid bin Daghr\nAssembly of Representatives\n\u2022 North Yemen independence from the Ottoman Empire\n\u2022 South Yemen independence from the United Kingdom\n\u2022 The Yemeni Revolution\n\u2022 April 2011 census\nYemen is the origin land of all Arabs in the Middle East. In ancient times, Yemen was an important center of trade and power. Many powerful kingdoms were in Yemen, including the Sabaeans. Yemen was important in the trade of spices as well. It was known to the ancient Romans as Arabia Felix (\"Happy Arabia\" in Latin). They called it Happy Arabia because the area was so beautiful and powerful.\nIn the 700s, Yemenis were among the first to join the new religion Islam. Since then, Yemenis have been staunch Muslims who were in the forefront of all Islam conquests. Men whose ancestors came from Yemen ruled Al-Andalus (Muslim Spain) for centuries. The Ottoman Empire took control of North Yemen, and the British Empire took South Yemen, in the early 20th century. The two parts were united in 1990 and later fought civil wars. The latest one started in 2015. Some famous people including former President Ali Abdullah Saleh were killed, and thousands died of hunger.\nToday, Yemen has over 20 million people. Most of them speak Arabic.\nYemen is in Western Asia. It is on the southern half of the Arabian Peninsula. A number of Red Sea islands, including the Hanish Islands, Kamaran, and Perim, as well as Socotra in the Arabian Sea, belong to Yemen. Many of the islands are volcanic. For example, Jabal al-Tair had a volcanic eruption in 2007 and before that in 1883. The highest point in Yemen is Jabal an Nabi Shu'ayb.\nYemen is one of the poorest and least developed countries in the Arab World. There is a 35% unemployment rate, which means only 35 out of every 100 people in the labor force don't have a job.\nAs a result of the 2011\u20132012 Yemeni uprising, the constitution of Yemen was rewritten. New elections were to be held in 2014. Some areas are controlled by armed militant groups. On 23 January 2015, the President, Prime Minister and Cabinet resigned. War continued, with Saudi Arabia and Iran supporting different sides.\nGovernoratesEdit\nAs of February 2004, Yemen is divided into twenty governorates and one municipality called \"Amanat Al-Asemah\".[4]\n2004 Census [5]\n2006 est.[6]\n'Aden\nAden 589,419 634,710 1\n'Amran 877,786 909,992 2\nZinjibar 433,819 454,535 3\nAd-Dali'\nAd Dali' 470,564 504,533 4\nAl Bayda' 577,369 605,303 5\nAl-Hudaydah 2,157,552 2,300,179 6\nAl-Jawf 443,797 465,737 7\nAl-Mahrah\nAl-Ghaydah 88,594 96,768 8\nAl-Mahweet 494,557 523,236 9\nSana'a 1,747,834 1,947,139 10\nDhamar 1,330,108 1,412,142 11\nAl-Mukalla 1,028,556 1,092,967 12\nHajjah 1,479,568 1,570,872 13\nIbb 2,131,861 2,238,537 14\nLahij 722,694 761,160 15\nMa'rib 238,522 251,668 16\nKosmah 394,448 418,659 17\nSa`dah 695,033 746,957 18\nSana'a 919,215 957,798 19\nAtaq 470,440 494,638 20\nTaiz 1,121,000 2,513,003 21\nThe governorates are divided into 333 districts. The districts are divided into 2,210 sub-districts, and then into 38,284 villages (as of 2001).\nYemen has about 24 million people according to June 2011 estimates. 46% of the people are under 15 years old. Yemenis are mainly of Arab origin.[7] Arabic is the official language.\nReligion in Yemen is mostly of two main Islamic religious groups; 53% of the Muslim population is Sunni[8] and 45% is Shiite according to the UNHCR.[8][9]\nAccording to 2009 estimates, life expectancy in Yemen is 63.27 years.[7]\nSee also: Yemen at the Olympics\nFootball is the most popular sport in Yemen. The Yemen national football team competes in the FIFA and the AFC leagues. The country also hosts many football clubs that compete in the national or international leagues.\nYemen's mountains have many opportunities for outdoor sports, such as rock climbing, hill climbing, skiing, and hiking. The coast of Yemen and Socotra island have opportunities for water sports, such as surfing, sailing, swimming, and scuba diving. Socotra island is one of the best surfing places in the world.\nYemen's biggest sports event was hosting the 2010 Gulf Cup of Nations.\nWikimedia Commons has media related to Yemen.\nWikivoyage has a travel guide about: Yemen\n\u2191 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 \"Yemen\".

        "raw_content": "GREATER PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA\nHow Greater Philadelphia is positioning itself to become the next global energy hub.\nCrews install new pipeline outside of Altoona, Pa., as part of the Mariner East 1 project.\nPhoto courtesy of Sunoco Logistics\nThree decades ago, the Philadelphia 76ers were known as a team that could beat you any way they wanted on the basketball court: inside, outside, with slick moves or with brute force.\nFrom the high-flying dunks of Julius \u201cDr. J\u201d Erving to the outside shooting of Andrew Toney, the 76ers of that era regularly dominated opponents in the National Basketball Association.\nFlash forward to 2016 and Philadelphia wants to be a leader again \u2014 but in an entirely different arena: the global energy business.\nFrom record-breaking investments into new gas pipelines to enhancing the largest oil refinery complex on the East Coast, the Greater Philadelphia region is positioning itself to be the next \u201cGlobal Energy Hub,\u201d according to a coalition of community and business leaders who are committed to this cause.\nMatt Cabrey, executive director of Select Greater Philadelphia, says that the Greater Philadelphia Energy Action Team (GPEAT) is an initiative of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce to lead the region toward carving out a globally relevant leadership position in energy.\n\u201cOur focus is to create this energy hub,\u201d he says. \u201cWe have very strong infrastructure assets. We are exceptionally well positioned with our transportation network, particularly with our railroads, highways and seaport access. The international airport is also a significant factor. These unique assets form a core foundation for continued growth across our region.\u201d\n\u201cThe place to live right now is Philadelphia. We are on the brink of something really great. As we continue to figure out how to harness the power of this energy opportunity, there will be no stopping this region.\u201d\n\u2014 Denis O\u2019Brien, Senior Executive Vice President, Exelon and CEO, Exelon Utilities\nThat foundation is made of multiple components \u2014 oil refineries; massive oil and gas pipelines; gas distributors; and a political and legal framework designed to bolster these industries and their byproducts.\nDenis O\u2019Brien, Senior Executive Vice President, Exelon and CEO, Exelon Utilities, and chairman of the Chamber, says that \u201cthe collaboration of the business and political community is as positive now as it has been in the past 20 years.\u201d\nWith three refineries along the Delaware River and the prospect of three major pipelines being extended all the way from Western Pennsylvania to Delaware County and south Philadelphia, conditions are ripe for the region to take the next step as a globally competitive energy resource provider, O\u2019Brien notes.\n\u201cOur region is positioned with abundant natural gas, and current pricing is extremely favorable,\u201d O\u2019Brien says. \u201cEverybody in the region is focused on this opportunity, and working together to enable additional pipeline development.\u201d\nPiping in the Solution\nSunoco Logistics is leading the charge to bring additional pipeline access to the region. Mariner East 1 is a 300-mile-long pipeline project that was recently completed by Sunoco Logistics. It stretches from southwest of Pittsburgh to the Marcus Hook Industrial Complex in Delaware County, Pa. The new pipeline began distributing propane in December of 2014 and added ethane shipments in January 2016. It is capable of delivering both ethane and propane to the region.\nSunoco Logistics continues to work on Mariner East 2, a 350-mile-long pipeline that extends from Eastern Ohio to Marcus Hook. An additional pipeline known as Mariner East 2X is now in open season, meaning that various shippers are in negotiations for contracts with the pipeline operator. A recent study by Econsult Solutions of Philadelphia found that the estimated economic impact of the various Sunoco Logistics pipeline projects will be $4.2 billion, with more than 30,000 jobs generated during construction.\nJeff Shields, communications manager for Sunoco Logistics and Sunoco Inc. in Newtown Square, Pa., says that 70,000 barrels of liquid gas a day is the capacity of ME1, while ME2 will have a capacity of up to 700,000 barrels a day. \u201cThere are two planned off-takes along the way,\u201d says Shields. \u201cThey are in Lebanon County and Berks County. Propane offloading points will be there for local delivery. That will make a big difference in the winter months. Some 190,000 homes in Pennsylvania are heated during the winter with propane. Farmers also use it to heat their livestock sheds and dry out their crops.\u201d\nUltimately, the new pipelines will be used to distribute ethane, butane and potentially a light form of oil, Shields adds. \u201cWe are actively pursuing a propane processing complex, known as a propane cracker,\u201d he says. \u201cYou take propane and turn it into propylene, a building block for all kinds of materials such as plastics, fabrics, detergents, etc.\u201d The propane cracker alone represents an additional capital investment of $1 billion to $1.5 billion, according to one study.\nAnother key player in the region\u2019s energy economy is Philadelphia Energy Solutions, which processes 335,000 barrels of crude oil a day, making it the largest refinery operation on the East Coast.\nPhoto courtesy of Philadelphia Energy Solutions\nPhil Rinaldi, CEO of PES, says that \u201cthe idea of Philadelphia as an energy hub is really a question of the Marcellus Shale natural gas resources. It is about taking advantage of those resources \u2014 both in dry gas form [methane] and wet gas form [propane and butane]. With the Marcellus and Utica shale plays, this is the most prolific natural gas region in the nation. The reserves exceed well over 100 years.\u201d\nAll that\u2019s needed is to tap it and use it, Rinaldi says. \u201cThe existing market for the gas is at a limit. It is constrained by the market for the gas,\u201d he says. \u201cIf you have new markets, you must have new customers. Philadelphia is uniquely positioned to provide that. It is the center of mass for the refining industry on the East Coast. We have the population. We have the Delaware River. We have the CSX and Norfolk Southern railroads. And now we have great pipeline access.\u201d\nBeing an energy hub is not just about distributing energy, Rinaldi notes. \u201cIt is about fulfilling our historic role as a manufacturing center,\u201d he says. \u201cThere is a pro-manufacturing mentality here. The skill level of manufacturing workers in this region is extraordinary. If you can create new factories that will rely on the use of natural gas as a feedstock, then this is the place to build. We are talking about moving the wellhead into Philadelphia and unlocking the full manufacturing potential of this region.\u201d\nGas Firms Work Together\nOthers who belong to the GPEAT coalition agree. John Walsh, president and CEO of UGI, a global, multi-faceted energy company headquartered in Valley Forge, Pa, says that more industrial customers are looking to access natural gas every day. \u201cThe demand is moving fluidly upward,\u201d he says. \u201cWe have historically low costs for natural gas and natural gas liquids. The price of propane is lower than it has been in over a decade. There is increased demand for natural gas to replace coal as the feedstock for electric power plants.\u201d\nAbout a year ago, UGI announced a major new pipeline from northeastern Pennsylvania into New Jersey. \u201cThis is the $1.1-billion Penn East Pipeline that will carry Marcellus gas into New Jersey,\u201d says Walsh. \u201cIt is a great partnership of four major gas companies in the region. We are working together to ensure a long-term solution for moving large quantities of Marcellus gas to our customer base.\u201d\nIf everything goes as planned and the project secures all its needed federal approvals, the new pipeline should be operational in 2019, Walsh says. \u201cWhat we want everyone to know is that there is a great commitment to collaboration among the businesses and the public sector in Pennsylvania and especially in Philadelphia. We work together to make sure that we build out the needed energy infrastructure.\u201d\nCraig White, president and CEO of Philadelphia Gas Works, says that bringing more natural gas into the Greater Philadelphia region is one of the chief needs. \u201cPGW is planning with the Mayor to expand our LNG [liquefied natural gas] assets,\u201d he says. \u201cWe have test-driven the market with multiple years of LNG sales in the interruptible LNG marketplace. With this experience and with the growing demand for natural gas, it is readily apparent to us that there is a significant need for additional LNG, and it is our goal to meet that need.\u201d\n\u201cWe have the available land, the skilled labor, the top-notch universities, a great transportation network, cultural diversity and a robust energy infrastructure.\u201d\n\u2014 Cristina Jorge Schwarz, Director of Industrial Re/Development, Apex Companies, LLC\nWhite says he sees multiple new sources of demand for gas in the near future. \u201cThe development of combined heat and power is one emerging trend,\u201d he notes. \u201cThis is a form of distributed generation using natural gas. You create electricity, and with the waste heat you can heat up your building and install absorption chilling. It is 65 to 80 percent efficient. It is much more efficient than using steam.\u201d\nWhite also sees compressed natural gas being adopted by more fleets. \u201cIf you are going to attract manufacturing to the city in the future, you have to do that,\u201d he says. \u201cYou have to replace gas-powered vehicles with CNG. PGW has some CNG vehicles. Temple University uses them. But most major fleets have not yet gone in that direction. It comes down to dollars and cents. It requires an investment.\u201d\nWhite says PGW will issue its RFP soon for developing its LNG facility. \u201cWith Board approval, PGW will issue a Request for Proposal [RFP] soon for the purpose of increasing our LNG capabilities,\u201d White says. \u201cTiming is key for maximizing market opportunities and PGW is poised to advance the ball quickly.\u201d\nLaw Firms Support Process\nLaw firms in the region are part of the GPEAT coalition as well. Marc Gold, partner with Manko Gold Katcher Fox LLP, says that \u201cwe have a mix of clients involved in direct and indirect operations relating to the energy industry. We represent a lot of companies that are interested in selling and developing property. One issue is the appropriate re-use of former industrial properties. A large part of my work is how we attract developers and businesses to properties that are suitable for development.\u201d\nFor this to happen, notes Gold, \u201cwe need to have the ability to get the gas here. The constraint is not on the production end. It is how to get the gas from where it is extracted to where it can be used. Among the fossil fuels, natural gas is among the most environmentally friendly. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is reviewing and approving natural gas pipelines because they understand that this is the best option and the pipeline construction can be done in an environmentally responsible way.\u201d\nThe big payday at the end of this effort is the boon to the tax base that will occur from a manufacturing renaissance in the region, says Gold.\n\u201cPeople should be excited about the prospects here,\u201d he adds. \u201cThe prospects of low energy costs and low costs of materials are big factors in site selection. Those are leading-edge issues. All of this will only make the Philadelphia region more attractive in the future.\u201d\nCristina Jorge Schwarz of environmental firm Apex Companies LLC says that a core focus of GPEAT is to raise global awareness regarding the favorable location and assets of the Philadelphia region.\n\u201cWe have done a great job inviting companies to come here and look,\u201d she says. \u201cNow, we need to reach out to companies that may not know us yet and let them know that it is a great time to invest here. We have the available land, the skilled labor, the top-notch universities, a great transportation network, cultural diversity and a robust energy infrastructure. We are leveraging our greatest strengths in the region, and the business community in all 11 counties has come together. We have made a commitment to the region to support the creation of this energy hub.\u201d\nO\u2019Brien of Exelon echoes that sentiment. \u201cThe place to live right now is Philadelphia,\u201d he says. \u201cWe are on the brink of something really great. As we continue to figure out how to harness the power of this energy opportunity, there will be no stopping this region.\u201d\nThat\u2019s what they said about Dr. J and the 76ers more than 30 years ago. That Philly team rode its momentum all the way to a four-game sweep of the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals in 1983.\nToday, the leaders of GPEAT are engaged in a full court press to transform Greater Philadelphia into the next global energy hub.\nThis Investment Profile was prepared under the auspices of Select Greater Philadelphia.

        "title": "A Quiet Place, John Krasinski\u2019s new horror movie, reviewed.",
        "raw_content": "A Quiet Place Can Only Be Fully Experienced in the Theater\nJohn Krasinski\u2019s inventive thriller\u2014in which aliens attack anything that makes a sound\u2014rewards those who sit in silence.\nThe most extraordinary part of A Quiet Place doesn\u2019t happen on screen, but in the theater. In an era of distracted viewing when cinemagoers often treat cineplexes as extensions of their living rooms, John Krasinski\u2019s hushed thriller not only compels active viewing but rewards it\u2014or make that active listening. In the movie\u2019s near-future (it\u2019s some time in the early 2020s), the Earth has been invaded by an alien species that relies on sound to target its prey, which means almost anything louder than a whisper can get you killed. The movie cheats its silences sometimes: There\u2019s a score by Marco Beltrami and a scene where Krasinski\u2019s character and his wife, played by Emily Blunt, split a pair of earbuds and dance to Neil Young\u2019s \u201cHarvest Moon,\u201d which fades in a little too desperately. But the movie, whose script is credited to Krasinski as well as Bryan Woods and Scott Beck, is admirably determined to stick to its (silencer-equipped) guns.\nKrasinski and Blunt\u2014their characters are identified in the credits as Lee and Evelyn Abbott, but their names are never spoken aloud\u2014have three children, the oldest of whom, played by Millicent Simmonds, is deaf, and much of the communication between them takes place in subtitled American Sign Language. (Simmonds is deaf in real life and helped teach the other leads.) The movie is never entirely silent, because the world is not, but it makes you hyperaware of the sounds our daily lives often drown out: the soft pad of bare feet on ground (the family goes so far as cushioning the trails around their house with sand), the scrape of a can as it comes off a grocery-store shelf, the sharp creak of a floorboard that will be familiar to any parent who\u2019s tried to creep past a sleeping child\u2019s room or any teenager who\u2019s tried to sneak past their sleeping parents. When the movie cuts to Simmonds\u2019 point of view, those sounds aren\u2019t replaced with silence, as they were during the sequences featuring Simmonds in Todd Haynes\u2019 Wonderstruck, but by a dull, undifferentiated roar, as if someone had turned up a white-noise machine way too loud. The decision is probably partly tactical\u2014moments of pure silence in a movie theater become an instant referendum on which person in your row is scraping at the bottom of his popcorn bucket\u2014but for a hearing audience, it\u2019s more effective than simply cutting the volume. You can still hear, but it feels like your ears don\u2019t work.\nThe movie makes you hyperaware of the sounds our daily lives often drown out.\nKrasinski and Blunt are married in real life, with two daughters, and he\u2019s built the movie\u2019s premise into a story that\u2019s not just about survival but about lineage. We only get as far as \u201cDay 473,\u201d which means it hasn\u2019t been much more than a year since the aliens landed (which, if you read the newspapers pinned up in Krasinski\u2019s command center, you learn was via meteorite, 1950s-style). But it seems as if humanity has been virtually wiped out, and what remains exists only in fearfully isolated pockets. When Krasinski goes to the top of his grain silo to light a signal fire\u2014the cities, one assumes, were the first places to go\u2014he\u2019s answered by a handful of others in the surrounding hills, but there\u2019s no suggestion that the survivors should band together or pool their resources. When so much as a stumble or an unguarded cry can mean instant death, there\u2019s safety in avoiding numbers.\nGiven that premise, the fact that Krasinski and Blunt\u2019s characters have decided to bear a child in the midst of an impending apocalypse seems about as plausible as a horror-movie victim striding into an unlit basement. A Quiet Place gives them motivation in the form of a family tragedy that takes place in its first few minutes, but it still feels almost homicidally negligent given that they still have two already-born children to protect. It\u2019s hard enough to hush a newborn when you\u2019d die for a full night\u2019s sleep, let alone when it might actually kill you. Here, at least, the movie\u2019s thematic concerns take precedence over logistical ones. At first, the parents are consumed with keeping their children safe: \u201cIf we can\u2019t protect them,\u201d she asks him, \u201cwho are we?\u201d But as the children grow and the hope that help will arrive if they hold out long enough dwindles, their parents\u2019 focus shifts to providing for what comes after them, knowing that \u201cafter them\u201d could begin at any second.\nA Quiet Place would have greater cumulative impact if Krasinski devoted more time to the family\u2019s soundproofed existence and less to its action sequences. It feels like the movie is about 70 percent climactic showdown, with little time to let the feeling of living in a world without sound sink in. (A sequence in which the family sits down to dinner and, after clasping each other\u2019s hands in prayer, scoops their food onto leafy plates, has a faint whiff of Jeanne Dielman\u2019s attention to the quotidian. I could have done with hours more.) But there are moments when the movie takes us firmly by the hand and escorts us down a darkened path, and they lead to one of the most profound of communal pleasures: the sound of a movie audience screaming as one.",

        "title": "How will banning vocal white supremacists really make dating sites safer?",
        "raw_content": "The Racists of OkCupid Don\u2019t Usually Carry Tiki Torches\nHow will banning vocal white supremacists really make dating sites safer?\nIn the heat of the violence of this month\u2019s white-supremacist gathering in Charlottesville, Virginia, neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer published a promise to the men carrying tiki torches while chanting Nazi catchphrases. After the marches, the site said, \u201crandom girls will want to have sex with you. Because you\u2019re the bad boys. The ultimate enemy of the state. Every girl on the planet wants your dick now.\u201d\nBy the end of the following week, one of the most popular dating sites had made it a little harder for those KKK enthusiasts to find the love they were promised. OkCupid announced on Aug. 17 that it had banned Christopher Cantwell, a white nationalist who found fame in a Vice documentary about the Charlottesville protests, from the platform for life after a user pointed out his profile to site administrators. \u201cThere is no room for hate in a place where you\u2019re looking for love,\u201d OkCupid tweeted in its statement, urging users to report other hate-group members who kept profiles on the site.\nIn the days before white supremacists descended on Charlottesville, Bumble had already been in the process of strengthening its anti-racism efforts, partly in response to an attack the Daily Stormer had waged on the company, encouraging its readers to harass the staff of Bumble in order to protest the company\u2019s public support of women\u2019s empowerment. (Only women, not men, can make the first move on the app.) \u201cAt that point, we realized that there\u2019s a larger conversation to be had here about not wanting these people in our app,\u201d said Alex Williamson el-Effendi, Bumble\u2019s vice president of brand content. Bumble bans any user who disrespects their customer service team, figuring that a guy who harasses women who work for Bumble would probably harass women who use Bumble. After the neo-Nazi attack, Bumble contacted the Anti-Defamation League for help identifying hate symbols and rooting out users who include them in their Bumble profiles. Now, the employees who respond to user reports have the ADL\u2019s glossary of hate symbols as a guide to telltale signs of hate-group membership, and any profile with language from the glossary will get flagged as potentially problematic. The platform has also added the Confederate flag to its list of prohibited images.\nRacial slurs, sexual harassment, and promotion of racial violence are easy to identify as bannable offenses on dating apps. And it\u2019s not hard to see why publicly banning white supremacists might be an irresistible public relations opportunity for a dating site. But what about users who keep it friendly on the app, then post racist memes on 4chan or Twitter? Both Bumble and OkCupid say they employ moderators who evaluate user reports on a case-by-case basis; el-Effendi said Bumble would probably \u201ctake action\u201d against a user who was posting content that could make Bumble users feel unsafe, even if that content was on a different platform. Still, the line between a white supremacist and a white person who tells OkCupid they think there\u2019s a correlation between race and intelligence is quite blurry.\n\u201cSome decisions are easy: White supremacists and Nazis are not welcome here,\u201d OkCupid CEO Elie Seidman told me via email. \u201cOthers are hard. Our goal is member safety and the removal of hateful content from our platform.\u201d Seidman wrote that the company has a zero-tolerance policy toward harassers, and \u201cany clear connection between one of our members and [a hate group] is an indication to us that they do not subscribe to our mission to create a welcoming, inviting place.\u201d Surely there are plenty of white supremacists who don\u2019t have a clear connection to a recognized hate group but who tell OkCupid in their user questionnaires that they use racial slurs and would happily date a vocal racist. (Seidman did not answer my questions about the site\u2019s race-related queries that let racists out themselves.)\nOkCupid, in particular, has been helping people broadcast their hateful views on the site for years. The platform\u2019s match algorithm depends on a series of questions that users can answer and rate by importance\u2014and several of them all but encourage users to out themselves as racists. \u201cWould you consider dating someone who has vocalized a strong negative bias toward a certain race of people?\u201d \u201cIs interracial marriage a bad idea?\u201d \u201cDo you use racial slurs when you are around friends or family whom you trust?\u201d \u201cDo you believe that there exists a statistical correlation between race and intelligence?\u201d It\u2019s not hard to find white people in OkCupid\u2019s database who answered \u201cyes\u201d to these questions. They have chosen to make their racist views public and a factor in their search for a mate. OkCupid helps them seek each other out.\nCrucially, though, it also helps others keep white supremacists out of their feeds. \u201cThose questions are helpful flags that tell me who to avoid,\u201d said Farrah Skeiky, a 27-year-old woman of Lebanese descent. Users can answer \u201cno\u201d to the race questions and weight them heavily, helping screen out some of the proudest racists; according to OkCupid data, this is a common strategy. In fact, Tanisha Humphrey, also 27, likes OkCupid specifically because it asks blunt questions about racist attitudes. \u201cI\u2019ve ended up talking to a guy and then saw that he had marked that he thought you could tell someone\u2019s intelligence based on their race,\u201d she said. \u201cI knew immediately that I needed to stop talking to him.\u201d\nRacism on dating sites usually manifests in more insidious ways, though. If you\u2019ve ever read or listened to any personal account of online dating from a woman of color, Humphrey and Skeiky\u2019s will sound familiar to you. There are the men who insist on qualifying every compliment with \u201cfor a black girl.\u201d The men who say they like Asian or Muslim women because they let their boyfriends dominate them. The men who cannot describe a woman of color without invoking foodstuffs\u2014\u201cspicy\u201d and \u201cchocolate\u201d are their favorite flavors. There are men who get angry if they don\u2019t get an immediate response to a message, then resort to flinging racial slurs at the women they were trying to woo mere hours before. (Both Skeiky and Humphrey have been called variations on the N-word for this reason.) Some sites also have a diversity problem\u2014and when most of the available matches are white, a platform can start to feel like a hostile dating environment. \u201cAs a black woman, each time I log onto Hinge feels a lot like going to an IRL event with a room full of WASP-y men and being the only black person in the room,\u201d said Holly Bass, a 46-year-old woman who once found a literal Winklevoss twin on her feed despite asking for matches of any race but white. \u201cThese sites need to go beyond eliminating the most egregious examples of bigotry and work toward creating actual diverse spaces.\u201d\nThough racist users can make dating platforms treacherous ground for people of color, many of the women I talked to have had good experiences with existing reporting mechanisms on the dating sites they use. \u201cI\u2019ve reported users for racist behavior before, and OKCupid followed up pretty quickly. It was obvious that the profile was deleted,\u201d Skeiky said. Humphrey uses OkCupid\u2019s content filter to keep some of the most blatantly racist messages out of her inbox. \u201cI feel a lot more comfortable using a site where I know that they will take action if I report harassment for any reason, including race-based comments,\u201d she said. \u201cI think that\u2019s a much more direct, and, for me, as a user of the app, meaningful way of combating racism rather than saying you\u2019re going to kick out one or two super vocal, super-visible racists.\u201d\nThere\u2019s absolutely nothing wrong with dating sites taking a hard-line stance against vocal white supremacists. At the same time, if sites are already letting users out themselves as racists and banning those who use hate speech, the chances of a person of color accidentally matching with a white supremacist are slim. Their chances of facing racist remarks from people who don\u2019t self-identify as such are much greater, and this is the kind of thing that\u2019s nearly impossible for a dating site to moderate. One OkCupid user, Fabiana Cabral, recalled the time an older white woman repeatedly insisted on telling her she looked Colombian even after Cabral said she was Venezuelan. \u201cIt does make OkCupid look good to ban a now well-known white supremacist,\u201d said Cabral. \u201cIt also reinforces the idea that a \u2018racist\u2019 is someone who attends a rally like the one in Charlottesville and carries a flaming torch and not someone who thinks all Latina women must look the same and feels OK telling me so to my face.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s Saudi Delusions\nThe president\u2019s defense of arms sales to the kingdom isn\u2019t just immoral\u2014it\u2019s inaccurate.\nU.S. President Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman shake hands in the State Dining Room before lunch at the White House on March 14, 2017.\nPresident Trump\u2019s refusal to cancel arms sales to Saudi Arabia, in response to the disappearance and likely murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, is certainly cruel, cold, and callow\u2014a dark parody of realpolitik foreign policy. But his rationale for doing so is also based on several false premises, and it reflects Trump\u2019s stunning weakness as an international negotiator.\nIn a session with reporters Thursday afternoon, Trump was asked about calls by several senators to halt arms sales to Saudi Arabia. Trump replied, \u201cThis took place in Turkey, and, to the best of our knowledge, Khashoggi is not a United States citizen.\u201d (Prompted by an aide, Trump noted that he is \u201ca permanent resident.\u201d) Trump then said, \u201cI don\u2019t like stopping massive amounts of money coming into our country. I don\u2019t like stopping an investment of $110 billion in the United States.\u201d\nThe heartlessness of the remark needs no elaboration. The inaccuracies are worth pointing out. First, the abduction of Khashoggi did not take place \u201cin Turkey,\u201d but rather in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul\u2014which, by law and practice, is considered Saudi territory.\nSecond, when Trump visited Saudi Arabia in May 2017, he boasted\u2014as he did again at Thursday\u2019s press event\u2014that he\u2019d signed $110 billion in arms sales contracts, but this was nowhere near true. Glenn Kessler, in the Washington Post, cites State Department data indicating that actual signed contracts for arms sales since that meeting amount to just $4 billion.\nThe heartlessness of the remark needs no elaboration. The inaccuracies are worth pointing out.\nIn 2017, acting on contracts signed before Trump was president, the Saudis spent about $10 billion on arms imports\u2014$6 billion from the United States, $2.3 billion from Britain, and almost all of the rest from other European countries.\nFinally, just saying what Trump said\u2014implying that the Saudis held all the cards and he held none\u2014no doubt sent a message to Saudi rulers that the president of the United States wasn\u2019t going to hold them responsible, wasn\u2019t going to take any severe action, and ultimately didn\u2019t much care what happened. (This was likely the calculation before Khashoggi was nabbed; it is hard to imagine these rulers would have put this plan in motion if they thought the president would disapprove.)\nAfter all, Trump claimed, the Saudis could go elsewhere for weapons\u2014send billions of dollars to other countries\u2014if Congress banned all deals. But this isn\u2019t true, at least not in the short term. They need spare parts and ammunition for the American weapons already in their arsenals. Those items don\u2019t cost much money, but if they were cut off, the Saudis\u2019 brutal war in Yemen would grind to a halt\u2014which is what many in Congress, and elsewhere, would like to see happen. It would take many months, even years, for the Saudis to establish new relations with another supplier and receive parts, training, and infrastructure.\nBut let\u2019s say the Saudis could, and did, go elsewhere to buy weapons quickly. So what? As Trump pointed out, somewhat incongruously, in the same session with reporters, the U.S. economy is in good shape right now. That being the case, why place the mercantilist rush of a few billion dollars in arms contracts above U.S. interests and values?\nAt this point in the two countries\u2019 long \u201cspecial relationship,\u201d the Saudis enjoy very little leverage. Bruce Riedel, a former career CIA analyst and now a scholar at the Brookings Institution, said in an email Thursday evening that the Saudis are in no position to retaliate to an arms sales ban by, say, reducing oil exports\u2014which could raise gas prices, something that Trump might fear in the weeks before midterms. The Saudis, Riedel said, \u201chave serious cash flow problems with a war that costs them $50 billion a year.\u201d The crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, \u201cis shaking down his own businessmen because he needs the money.\u201d\nIn comments to Foreign Policy magazine, Riedel stated that Crown Prince Mohammed\u2019s bizarre and violent behavior in recent months \u201creflects the somewhat precarious nature\u201d of his position in power: \u201cHis legitimacy is open, and his judgment is reckless.\u201d He \u201ccontinues to enjoy the protection of his father, and that\u2019s what\u2019s crucial.\u201d But, Riedel concluded, \u201cI would not be surprised if he were moved out of the line of succession or there was an assassination attempt.\u201d\nThe crown prince has presented himself as a harbinger of Western-style reform, passing edicts that allow Saudi women to drive and attend sports events, among other social and cultural innovations. The Khashoggi incident hurls his reputation into grave doubt. Several Western businessmen and media sponsors have pulled out of an upcoming Davos-style conference, called the Future Investment Initiative, which the crown prince is sponsoring and where he\u2019s scheduled to speak.\nIt is also an extreme embarrassment to Trump, not only because the royal family feted him with such shrewdness during his visit to Riyadh last year but also because Jared Kushner, Trump\u2019s son-in-law and adviser, singled out Crown Prince Mohammed as the likely heir to the throne and cultivated a close friendship with him.\nFinally, at his U.N. General Assembly speech in September, Trump himself hailed Saudi Arabia for its \u201cbold new reforms\u201d and cited it\u2014along with India, Israel, and Poland\u2014as a \u201cvery special\u201d land, \u201cshining brightly\u201d in the \u201cconstellation of nations.\u201d\nTo confront the very special rulers too brusquely on the Khashoggi incident, much less to accept a harsh verdict and to act on its implications, would to be confess mistaken judgment\u2014and that is the one thing that Trump is least willing to do.\nDonald Trump Jamal Khashoggi Saudi Arabia",

        "title": "The Rise of Displacement in Africa | Small Wars Journal",
        "raw_content": "The Rise of Displacement in Africa\nThere are a record number of ongoing conflicts in Africa, pushing millions of people out of their homes. New conflicts are displacing new people while long-standing wars and refugee crises go unresolved. If responses to war and displacement do not improve, mounting problems will destabilize the region further.\nToday one out of every 57 people in Africa is displaced. The inability to resolve old conflicts and prevent new ones from breaking out have forced unprecedented numbers to flee their homes. While Africa is justifiably lauded for its progressive policies for displaced people, the growing numbers of people uprooted from war, violence, or persecution point to a collective failure to find a solution to the problem of forced displacement.\nLess than 20 percent of the world\u2019s population is African, but more than 30 percent of the world\u2019s displaced people are in Africa.[1] There are 14.7 million internally displaced people (35 percent of the world\u2019s total) and 7.4 million refugees from Africa (nearly 30 percent of the global amount).[2] Seven of the ten largest sources of refugees are African countries and five of the ten countries with the highest proportion of refugees are on the continent.\nThe uptick of conflicts in the last several years is generating a further exodus. The total number of intrastate conflicts in Africa, combining both minor and major wars, set annual records in the last three years (although there were higher numbers of major conflicts alone in the late 1980s and 1990s).[3] Full-blown civil wars in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria, and Somalia, and persistent violence in South Sudan, Mali, Libya, and other locations continue. There was also a huge jump in the number of non-state conflicts between warring parties that are not government forces\u2014a 43 percent increase since 2016\u2014with rapid escalations in the Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo.[4] And the prospects for finding lasting and peaceful endings are limited at best.\nLast year was particularly bad. Around half of those displaced by conflict in 2017 were in Africa, with more than 1.3 million Africans fleeing their homes to another country. New and renewed fighting in the Democratic Republic of Congo caused a spike in displacement to 2.2 million people, double the 2016 figure. With the recent surge adding to the totals of people still unable to return home after decades of instability, more than 5 million Congolese are currently displaced.\nThe situation was also dire in South Sudan. More than 1 million refugees fled abroad, mostly to Uganda, Sudan, and other neighbors. It was the largest increase in refugees in the world last year. While Somalia remains one of the other leading sources of refugees, the number actually fell slightly in 2017. But ongoing turmoil, associated humanitarian emergencies, and spreading tensions between Puntland and Somaliland guarantee the danger of additional displacement will remain high.\nConflict-induced displacement plague other countries as well. While violence in Sudan rarely makes international headlines these days, the country remains one of the biggest sources of refugees and the numbers increased last year. Mounting insecurity caused a tenfold increase in displacement in the Central African Republic and clashes with Boko Haram in northern Nigeria continue to push people out of their homes, threatening to engulf its neighbors\u2014Cameroon, Niger, and Chad\u2014in a wider, intractable crisis.\nThe number of wars is unlikely to fall markedly in the immediate future. While there have been positive signs in places like Ethiopia and Eritrea, ominous signs are noticeable elsewhere. Looming elections in the Democratic Republic of Congo could spark more killings instead of furthering democracy, violence could escalate in South Sudan, the Central African Republic, Zimbabwe, or Burundi, and jihadists and other non-state armed groups threaten deadlier insurgencies in Mali and its neighbors in the Sahel, Somalia, the Lake Chad Basin, Libya, and even Mozambique. Deteriorating security situations will push more people out of their homes and an influx of refugees can destabilize host regions.\nIt should go without saying that reducing the incidence of violence would cut the risk of displacement, so more should be done to end wars and avert new conflicts. But more can also be done to reduce the numbers of internally displaced people and refugees and improve their circumstances. While each situation is unique and requires targeted, context-specific response plans, there are three overarching areas that should receive greater attention.\nFirst, more resources need to be devoted to protracted refugee situations. The majority of the world\u2019s refugees are living in exile for more than five years and more than half of the protracted situations are in Africa. Several persist for decades, including ones lasting over 40 years for Burundian refugees living in Tanzania and people from Western Sahara in Algeria. Somali refugees have also lived abroad for a quarter of a century in Kenya and outside of the continent in Yemen.\nThese protracted crises rarely receive much attention. Human outflows from Syria, Afghanistan, and Myanmar soak up the focus of global audiences and policymakers. Even the severity of the worsening violence in the Congo last year wasn\u2019t enough to generate adequate resources as the emergency response plan was woefully underfunded. But it does not need to be a competition over a small pool of funds\u2014more money and time need to be found.\nProtracted refugee situations fall down the list of international priorities. The crises are less acute and often considered to be too difficult to solve. More time, however, needs to be dedicated to enabling these refugees to safely return home and much more can be done to resettle or integrate them into the local economies and societies. Properly addressing these situations can limit the chances of the same wars re-erupting in the future and enhance stability in the countries currently hosting the groups.\nSecond, with large populations unable to return home for years, many children will grow up abroad or displaced in their own country. Africa is relatively young compared to other regions and the same is true for its refugee populations. Around one in two refugees around the world is a child (up noticeably in the last 10 years), but this proportion is even higher across Africa. Greater than 60 percent of the refugee populations in Burkina Faso, Chad, the Congo Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, and Uganda are children.\nEducation needs to be emphasized. While responses to ongoing emergencies understandably prioritize basic needs (food, water, and shelter), displacements are unfortunately unlikely to end soon. The expertise and experience of long-term development specialists, particularly in regard to education, need to be incorporated into response plans. Children must receive high-quality schooling without major gaps in teaching.\nLosing years of schooling will harm a child\u2019s development and damage her future ability to earn a living and help rebuild her country once the fighting ends. Children need to have a proper education to get jobs in their home countries or in new locations. Given Africa\u2019s youthful population, it will already be extremely difficult for many young adults to find employment opportunities. Without essential language, math, and science skills, displaced youth will be at an even greater disadvantage.\nThird, local populations\u2014both governments and communities\u2014should take the lead in creating and implementing humanitarian and development plans whenever possible, but the international community needs to provide sufficient funds for good ideas and deliver outside pressure against unwise policies. Despite widespread fears of asylum seekers in Europe, most people displaced in Africa do not travel beyond the continent\u2019s shores. Internally displaced people remain within their own countries and the vast majority of refugees are hosted in neighboring states.\nAll situations are unique and no one understands the distinct needs better than the people directly involved. Local leadership is essential to tailoring responses to actual needs. While there is a growing recognition that a majority of global refugees settle in urban areas, this is not the case in the Democratic Republic of Congo where the vast majority of displaced people are in rural areas and often in camps. Uganda, Sudan, and Ethiopia are three of the major host countries of refugees in the world and their policies and capabilities affect millions of people.\nAfrica\u2019s Kampala Convention nobly sketches out the legal requirements for responding to displacement and its signatories deserve praise, but implementation is lagging. Host countries are sometimes underdeveloped and unstable, making it difficult to provide for new arrivals. And displaced people have been insufficiently integrated into local communities. Refugees deserve the right to work, to access education and health services, to freely move around the country, and to eventually obtain citizenship. Even Tanzania, a country that has until recently been lauded for the safe haven it provides to displaced people, is backtracking from international commitments and not doing enough to integrate refugees into the country. Global pressure countering misguided policies is needed.\nThe recent rises in conflicts and displacements across Africa are unlikely to fall without greater attention paid to ending old wars, preventing new ones, and more effectively responding to refugee populations. The disquieting trends in Africa point to past failures and demand new and improved responses.\n[1] All statistics on refugees and total displacement (refugees, internally displaced people, and asylum seekers) are from UNHCR, \u201cGlobal Trends: Forced Displacement in 2017,\u201d June 20, 2018. http://www.unhcr.org/globaltrends2017/.\n[2] All statistics on internally displaced people (not including refugees or asylum seekers) are from Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, \u201cGRID 2018: Global Report on Internal Displacement,\u201d May 2018. http://www.internal-displacement.org/global-report/grid2018/.\n[3] UCDP, \u201cUCDP/PRIO Armed Conflict Dataset version 18.1,\u201d 2018. http://ucdp.uu.se/downloads/.\n[4] Pettersson, Ther\u00e9se, and Kristine Eck, \u201cOrganized violence, 1989\u20132017,\u201d Journal of Peace Research 55, no. 4 (2018): 535-547. https://doi.org/10.1177/0022343318784101.\nDavid Kampf is a senior PhD fellow at the Center for Strategic Studies at The Fletcher School.

        "raw_content": "In 2018, getting political consensus on what\u2019s best for the future of America can be a bit like cheering for Duke and Carolina at the same time. But Duke professor William \u201cSandy\u201d Darity Jr. has managed to do just that; somehow, he\u2019s found common ground in U.S. politics. His idea for a federal job guarantee to provide full-time work for any American seeking and unable to obtain satisfactory employment is seeing support from both sides of the aisle.\nIn fact, nearly all of the Democratic hopefuls for the 2020 presidential bid have been in contact with Darity\u2019s team. This includes officials from the offices of senators Cory Booker, Kirsten Gillibrand, Bernie Sanders and Jeff Merkley. Republican Kevin Hassett, chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, has also expressed support for the idea. In Cory Booker\u2019s case, he\u2019s even designed and put forth a pilot program with help from Darity.\nAt Duke, Darity\u2019s job is to direct its Samuel DuBois Cook Center on Social Equity, an interdisciplinary research engine tackling a host of inequality issues. \u201cThe Cook Center\u2019s mission is to do systematic and rigorous research about policy issues, and then be able to effectively communicate that to the largest community that we can reach,\u201d says Darity.\nRecently, its work has seen increased reach with every new report published. In 2017, Politico Magazine selected Darity and his former graduate student and now frequent collaborator, Darrick Hamilton, a professor of economics and urban policy at The New School, as a duo on its top 50 \u201cthinkers, doers and visionaries transforming American politics.\u201d\nAstoundingly, the federal jobs guarantee is just one of the big ideas that Darity is pushing forward with the Cook Center. He and his colleagues have been prolific in launching solutions to inequality, any one of which could cause a tectonic shift in the socioeconomic fabric of America.\nHow Darity Came to Define a New Sub-Field of Economics\nIn 1970, Sandy Darity is an incoming freshman at Brown University. Two years before he gets there, the Poor People\u2019s Campaign, a part of the civil rights movement, has a radical idea. Led by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, their idea is to secure a Second Bill of Rights. It\u2019s a set of values guaranteed by law that will help all Americans achieve economic freedom in their pursuit of happiness.\nAnd, as it turns out, the idea isn\u2019t altogether new.\nIt\u2019s an idea that Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander, the first black recipient of a Ph.D. in economics, worked on with President Harry Truman for his construction of the Fair Deal in 1949. An idea, before that, that served as the opening plank of President Franklin Roosevelt\u2019s proposed Second or Economic Bill of Rights, announced in his State of the Union address in 1944. An idea so All-American that it takes Darity with such force \u2013 like it did King and his wife Coretta Scott \u2013 that it quietly consumes Darity\u2019s scholarly efforts for the next five decades.\nIn his studies at Brown, Darity is exposed to the theory of human capital. It defines a person\u2019s economic value as the sum total of the attributes that affect that person\u2019s ability to perform labor \u2013 including their health, education and even creativity.\nBut Darity\u2019s life experiences reveal gaps in this theory: Summers visiting his grandmother\u2019s family in Wilson, North Carolina, where the railroad tracks divided the city like a spine into two neighborhoods on racial lines. Years spent abroad in the Middle East, when his father worked for the World Health Organization, where the Egyptian beaches looked different based on the income of the communities who had access to them. These memories define his early efforts to understand economics in the context of an unforgiving world.\nDarity graduates from Brown with this conflict of theory and actuality in his head the same year that Hank Aaron calmly breaks Babe Ruth\u2019s Major League Baseball home run record under pressure and threat of violence. (The two are to meet decades later, connected through their joint charge for human rights at the Cook Center.) For graduate school, Darity goes on to study at MIT, the world\u2019s preeminent graduate program in economics. He\u2019s part of a group that pushes the department to its highest representation of black American graduate students, which hasn\u2019t been surpassed to this day.",

        "raw_content": "How many mappers are there in Switzerland?\nPosted on January 9, 2014 by Simon\nAt the last SOSM board meeting we had a short discussion about membership levels and what kind of numbers that we should expect. The discussion led to two actions, on the one hand we decided that we would, as an experiment, mail all new contributors with a short welcome mail, and on the other hand it piqued my curiosity how many contributors we have historically had and what the current growth rates are (having the numbers handy tends to help when talking to the media too).\nThe last time I generated overall contributor numbers for Switzerland was a good two years ago and was then at over 6\u2019000, the current number is just over 9\u2019000. The value was generated from a full history extract of Switzerland from November 2013, further inspection of the extract shows that the oldest node in Switzerland was added on August the 15th, 2005. There may have been older anonymous contributions or contributions that were removed during the licence change, but this is the best date we have. This would indicate a growth rate of over 1\u2019000 contributors per year, this number seems to be further supported by the 104 welcome mails we have sent to new mappers over the last 4 weeks.\nNaturally Switzerland has a certain influx of non-domestic mappers, on the one hand due to neighbouring countries with strong OSM communities, on the other hand due to its popularity as a tourist destination. But as we know from a pure count point of view, larger, mobile mappers are a small minority and shouldn\u2019t effect the above numbers significantly.",

She had been anxious and agitated the night before and the next morning she was incredibly down.\n\u201cThen I got a phone call from her best friend Kitty\u2019s mother saying Kitty had received a text saying something along the lines of \u2018I love you, goodbye\u2019.\n\u201cI rang Cameron but there was no answer so I started to run home. It couldn\u2019t have taken me more than seven minutes. When I got in the front door I shouted her name but there was no reply. I went up the stairs to her bedroom, looked to my left and found her.\u201d\nKrokatsis said he cut her down and called the emergency services who guided him through CPR until the ambulance arrived.

The researchers are based at schools of medicine and public health across the country; in 2011, 37 academic centers were funded. Each PRC focuses on an area of expertise (e.g., controlling obesity, preventing cancer, or enabling healthy aging). The centers analyze the effectiveness of public health policies, and produce interventions, training programs, dissemination approaches, and other strategies that align with national and global initiatives to improve public health (Ammerman, Harris, Brownson, Tovar-Aguilar, & PRC Steering Committee, 2011). Each PRC's research is tailored to specific communities comprising largely underserved populations, such as Hispanics, older Americans, or rural residents, for whom the burden of chronic disease is greater than for the United States as a whole. The PRCs partner with members of the community that their research is intended to benefit; these partnerships give a voice to vulnerable populations not often heard in prevention research. Community members help choose research topics and assist in the research process, ensuring that real- world conditions are taken into consideration and thereby improving the contextual quality of the research. These collaborations increase the likelihood that successful research results will be appropriate for and used by the community. Other partners, including community-based organizations, health care systems, health advocacy groups, local and state health departments, and the business community, help in disseminating research results and effective programs by facilitating changes in policies, systems, and environments. These partnerships enable the results of the community research to spread well beyond the original study population. The PRC model is useful in targeting not only chronic disease but other public health problems as well, including immunization, infectious diseases such as HIV and sexually transmitted diseases, unintentional injury, and environmental health risks.\nHealthy Aging Research Network (HAN) : case study report\nCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (U.S.).

        "raw_content": "A year ago today, after five intense weeks, I graduated from in-flight training at a major US Airline and started a new career as a flight attendant. I got my wings and I was certified to fly. The world was at my feet.\nAfter the ceremony, I had a brief moment to hug & kiss my family before catching a flight across the country, to report for duty. That\u2019s right, no time to go back home & pack\u2026 just off to my new home on the east coast. I remember being nervous and even a little scared\u2026 I kind of felt like a cat hanging on a screen door. I had no idea what was ahead of me\u2026\nAfter a year of learning a whole new industry, living in a new city, having roommates, being on a tight budget, and experiencing my first ever (very brutal) winter, I\u2019m proud of how far I\u2019ve come!\nI can appreciate all kinds of weather and I\u2019m no longer afraid of storms. I enjoy rain, lightning brightening up the sky & the sound of booming thunder. I think snow is beautiful (for the most part).\nI can easily make friends with strangers and find something fun to do in any city. I\u2019m almost a pro at getting around on public transportation. I\u2019m ok with exploring new places alone and I am able to find beauty in so many more places and with so many more people than ever before.\nIt\u2019s been a wild turbulent ride and I\u2019m seriously having the time of my life! I\u2019ve played (& been paid to play) in seven different countries, and countless amazing cities\u2026I\u2019ve eaten the most delicious foods & I have met the most amazing people. I am so grateful and so excited for what\u2019s up ahead!\nMy first snow storm in Philadelphia\nA year ago, I would have never pictured my life the way it is now. Here\u2019s to many more\u2026\nSpecial thanks to my family & friends for your continued love and support. I know it hasn\u2019t been the easiest year for any of us. I miss you all very much. Thank you for encouraging me & for always understanding when I can\u2019t be around. Thank you for believing in me and for reminding me of what I am capable of. I love you.\nTo my crew (fellow flight attendants): you guys have made this last year so much fun. Thanks for turning my tears into laughter. It\u2019s an honor flying with all you hippie, gypsy, free spirits\u2026here\u2019s to many more years of wanderlust!\nThis entry was posted in career, entertainment, Family, Food, lifestyle, travel and tagged flight attendant, flight attendant life, flygirl, travel on June 19, 2014 by Cecilia S..\n\u2190 Soundset Bilingual Got Me Barcelona \u2192\n4 thoughts on \u201cA year with wings\u201d\ndj214 June 19, 2014 at 11:19 pm\nWe love u mija!! \ud83d\ude0d So happy for you.

The idea is to open the f-file with the pawn sacrifice and use rapid development to bring pressure on Black's kingside quickly. It isn't that difficult to learn, resembles the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit in many ways, and often leads to sacrifices and other fireworks not usually associated with the solid Caro-Kann.

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s widely accepted that any sort of information can be found on the internet. Anybody with access to wi-fi and a search browser can find all the world\u2019s information with just a few clicks. But beneath the surface, there\u2019s a web of secrets that few have gateways to. It\u2019s called the darknet, and it\u2019s about as underground as one can get.\nThe internet is made of several layers; the outermost one is called the surface web. This is where most of the web resides- if you have a browser like Safari or Firefox, you\u2019ll be able to peruse the surface web. Deep web, which is often mistaken for the darknet, is harder to find without a specialized search engine, but is for the most part legal. Library and government databases are common sites for this layer of the internet. The true darknet can only be found with special internet and search engines, and are purposefully hidden from the public. Unless you know how to get to it, it\u2019s invisible.\nThe darknet is essentially the digital equivalent of the black market. Counterfeit goods, drugs, and weapons are all available. You can buy a stolen identity, a cache of credit cards, pornography, even a person. Bitcoin is the currency of choice, as it is far more secure than cash or credit. There are even chatrooms and forums to discuss the same illicit products that are being sold. It\u2019s not entirely illegal- there are a few pure souls who use the darknet legally- but due to the anonymity it provides, the vast majority of users are criminals.\nIt is for this reason that the FBI is working so hard to crack down on darknet users. In 2014, one of the biggest darknet sites, Silk Road 2.0, was successfully taken down as part of a huge wipe of the Onion Router (also known as Tor). The creator of Silk Road 2.0, Blake Benthall (who went by the alias \u201cDefcon\u201d) was found and arrested. Tor still persists, however, a similar marketplace (Aero) vanished late last month. This is following the likes of Alphabay and Hansa, shut down in July 2017.\nOf course, for all the back-alley trade going on the darknet, there are undercover agents prepared to track buyers and sellers alike. Recently, a story broke about a Danish woman who attempted to hire an assassin via the darknet to murder her partner. She reportedly tried to find a hitman using CrimeBay and was prepared to pay in Bitcoin. However, CrimeBay is not as illegal as it first appears. While the topics discussed on the forums are gruesome, it is not actually a place where hired killers gather. The woman now faces charges of attempted murder and could be sentenced to life in prison. The official Bitcoin website commented on the story, saying \u201cBitcoin has a multitude of uses, but it\u2019s rubbish for hiring an assassin.\u201d\nWhat a darknet site seized by the government looks like.\nWith Bitcoin being such a hot topic at the moment (mainly due to its insane, fluctuating worth), it makes sense that the darknet is gaining more and more media attention- the exact opposite of what they want. The darknet prides itself on its anonymity, whether it be someone looking to contract a hacker or a person who has to use the security of the darknet to be themselves (i.e., openly LGBT+). Several federal agencies report \u201cthat if they monitor the final exit nodes they can track all activity that happens.\u201d This makes it all the easier for those on the darknet illegally to be brought to justice- but also for the innocents to be caught in the crossfire.\nThe darknet will never truly go away, either as a more secure browser for those in situations requiring it or for those who use it for more dubious reasons. But thanks to gaining exposure and advances in technology, it may be sputtering more in the coming years. Just be wary of where you hire your assassin.\nTagged dark net, FBI, hackers, StratasCorp, StratasTech",

With her first full band album since 2015's Slowtown Now! Do The Get Along features 12 songs performed by the perfect Holly Golightly band line-up of Bruce Brand (drums), Matt Radford (double bass), Ed Deegan (guitar) and Bradley Burgess (guitar). Alongide nine original tracks there are three choice covers - 'Satan is His Name' by Steve King & The Echelons, 'Love (Can't You Hear Me)' by the Knight Bros., and 'I Don't Know', originally recorded by Ruth Brown. Holly first came to musical prominence as a member of Thee Headcoatees, a Billy Childish/Thee Headcoats all-girl splinter group in 1991. Four years later she broke away from the garage punk scene with the release of her debut solo album The Good Things, which featured a mix of folk, early electric blues, & '60s beat influenced rock 'n' roll. It's a template that she's honed over the course of 13 solo albums, along the way impressing celebrity fans such as Jim Jarmusch (Holly's track Tell Me Now So I Know featured as the main title theme in his Broken Flowers movie), and most notably Jack White who duetted with Holly on It's True That We Love One Another, the final track on the classic White Stripes album Elephant. Holly's been busy over the last decade as half of blues/Americana duo Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs (The Brokeoffs being multi-instrumentalist Lawyer Dave). The pair have released a string of well received albums, and undertaken many tours on both sides of the Atlantic.\nThe Sound Of Music [LP]\nThe genre-breaking Slovenian collective have re-recorded the soundtrack for the beloved Julie Andrews film, The Sound of Music. In 2015, Laibach famously performed much of The Sound of Music's soundtrack in Pyongyang, North Korea. Included on this album are Laibach's industrial-leaning takes on favorites such as the musical's title track, \"Favorite Things\" and \"Do-Re-Mi.\" Also featured are the band's renditions of \"Arirang,\" the unofficial national anthem of Korea, and \"The Sound of Gayageum,\" a drum-heavy composition highlighting the traditional Korean instrument.\nSymphonic Terror: Live at Wacken 2017 [2CD/Blu-ray]\nBroken up over three movements and containing over 140 minutes of music and video, \u201cSymphonic Terror - Live at Wacken 2017\u201d captures Accept on stage at Wacken 2017 in front of over 80,000 metal fans alongside the Czech National Symphony performing hits such as \u201cDie By the Sword\u201d, \u201cRestless and Wild\u201d and many others including the band\u2019s perennial hit \u201cBalls to the Wall\u201d. Contains 2 cds, 1 blu-ray\nA Million and One [LP]\nInspired by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Patti Smith, Carl Craig and The White Stripes, Nova teamed up with producer The Twilite Tone (Common, Gorillaz, Kanye West) and mixing engineer Andrew Scheps (Adele, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lana Del Rey, Beyonc\u00e9) to create a stripped-down and visceral record. From the hypnotic pull of the album opener \u201cIt\u2019s Me On The Dance Floor\u201d to the electronic cacophony of \u201cWhite Noise,\u201d the record breaks new ground for My Brightest Diamond, certain to win over fans old and new.\nKid Doe (Particle Kid & John Doe)\nLucky Wheel [Indie Exclusive Small Business Saturday]\nPunk legend and X co-founder John Doe has spent decades building a career that spans across various genres and even formats, with dozens of acting credits in fi lm and TV. Particle Kid is the musical identity of singer-songwriter, musician, and visual artist Micah Nelson, who - despite his young age - has an equally impressive resume. The two have played together at Willie Nelson's Luck Reunion festival and the iconic Pappy & Harriet's in Joshua Tree, CA, as well as sharing the stage for a tribute to The Doors at the Founders Award ceremony.\nOn this split release, the two artists cover each others' tunes with their own interpretation. As a bonus, John Doe covers a Carter Family favorite, and Particle Kid covers outsider folk hero Michael Hurley. The release is mastered at 45RPM and pressed on a 12'' gold color LP, exclusively for Black Friday.\nMister Peepers [Indie Exclusive Small Business Saturday]\n\"MISTER PEEPERS\u201d is a song steeped in political satire, and was recently written and recorded by Ben Folds for a project in conjunction with the Washington Post Sunday Magazine. The Post approached Folds to write a song that spotlights the art of storytelling, and Folds choose to focus, with research assistance from a Post political writer, on a character currently in the news, deputy FBI Director Rod Rosenstein.\nFascinating Rhythm [Indie Exclusive Small Business Saturday]\nTony Bennett and Diana Krall celebrate their shared love of the music of George and Ira Gershwin with this limited edition 10\u201d single of Fascinating Rhythm.

[LP]\nB.E.D is the new collaboration from Baxter Dury, French Dance music pioneer Etienne De Cr\u00e9cy and Delilah Holiday of London punks Skinny Girl Diet. Produced by De Cr\u00e9cy and Dury, the record was recorded in France between 2017 and the start of 2018. Dury says ''Etienne has created a musical background for my confessional narrative and Delilah has encouraged it to be something more emotional. It's an unlikely mix that works because its short, simple and honest.''\nPost-Apocalypto [Picture Disc LP]\nExtinction(S) [LP]\nExtinction(s) is the 7th studio album from the Massachusetts metal stalwarts, featuring the new trakcs \"Incinerate\" and \"Survivalist\".

This is the original line-up of Lone Justice.\u201d \u2014Ryan Hedgecock Musician and producer Marvin Etzioni first saw Maria McKee and Ryan Hedgecock in a club in 1982, playing George Jones and Hank Williams covers. He convinced them they needed original material. After working and writing, the band added Dave Harrington (bass) and Don Willens (drums), the band worked up material with Etzioni and cut 5 of the 6 tracks at the famed Record Plant. An earlier session provides the 6th track. The Western Tapes: 1983 exhibits the genesis of this highly-influential band. While the original demo version of \u201cDrugstore Cowboy\u201d has appeared on various compilations, the remainder of the other tracks from the sessions have remained in the can. Two of the tracks appear in their earliest demo form and wound up landing on the classic 1988 Lone Justice debut, \u201cWorking Late\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t Toss Us Away\u201d (written by Maria\u2019s half-brother, Bryan MacLean of the classic band, Love) which would eventually become a top 5 smash for Country superstar Patty Loveless. Released in conjunction with the band, the 12\" and CD EP were mastered by Bernie Grundman (who also cut the 45 RPM lacquers). It\u2019s a look into where they started and foretells where they would go. As Etzioni (who would later join the band) says in his liner notes: \u201cWith countless hours together, it was a fun and innocent time. I believed we were creating a 21st century country band.\u201d They created much, much more.\nMedium Rarities [LP]\nPlanet B [LP]\nPlanet B is Justin Pearson (Dead Cross, Retox, The Locust) and Luke Henshaw (Sonido de la Frontera). The duo's music lays somewhere just out of reach of genre, with aesthetics rooted in hip hop, hardcore punk, turntablism, and 70s-80s horror movie soundtracks. Guests on the album include Kool Keith (Dr. Octagon), Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Head Wound City), Gabe Serbian (The Locust, Head Wound City), Sonny Kay (Year Future, creator of GSL Records), Martin Atkins (PIL, Killing Joke), and Joseph Karam (The Locust). The two had worked together in varying capacities prior to Planet B's formation, including Luke's remix of Justin's \"A Pig's Orphan\", contributions to the soundtrack of Asia Argento's film Incompresa, as well as \"Variations in the Key of Afterlife\", an otherworldly opus featuring Gabe Serbian and Luke. Planet B, however, marked the beginning of a full-on melding of these preternatural minds, successfully integrating key aspects of these musicians' stylistic strengths and playing off of one another with purpose. After releasing a solo 7\" as well as a split 7\" collaboration with legendary turntablists Invisible Skratch Piklz, Planet B's latest album is the impressively imaginative outcome of all their interdimensional efforts and collaborations.\nMidnight Wind: Remastered\nAmerica's #1 and longest-running True Heavy Metal Band!!!

Seeds can be a nutritious part of the diet, but are high in fat so should only make up a part of the diet (some experts recommend no more than about 30% of the diet). Pelleted diets are often a good choice for birds as they are nutritionally balanced and birds can\u2019t pick out their favorite seeds and leave the rest. However, with both seeds and pellets a wide variety of other foods should complement the diet. A variety of fresh vegetables and fruit should be offered, although persistence might be needed before your bird will try new foods (particularly if they are accustomed to an all-seed diet). Proteins such as hard boiled egg, legumes, and cooked meats can be offered in moderation. Sprouted seeds are also an excellent way to add variety to your bird\u2019s diet. Avoid avocado.",

La Grange\nThe general grant of legislative power in the Constitution of a state does not authorize the legislature, in the exercise either of the right of eminent domain or of the right of taxation, to take private property, without the owner's consent for any but a public object.\nThe Legislature of Missouri has no constitutional power to authorize a city to issue its bonds by way of donation to a private manufacturing corporation.\nThis was an action to recover the amount of coupons for interest from January 1, 1873, to January 1, 1880, attached to twenty-five bonds, all exactly alike except in their serial numbers, and one of which was as follows:\n\"United States of America\"\n\"State of Missouri, City of La Grange\"\n\"No. 23 $1,000\"\n\"Know all men by these presents that the City of La Grange doth for a good, sufficient, and valuable consideration promise to pay to the La Grange Iron and Steel Company or\nbearer the sum of one thousand dollars, in current funds, thirty years after the date hereof at the Third National Bank, City of New York, together with interest thereon at the rate of eight percent per annum, payable annually in current funds, on the first day of each January and July ensuing the date hereof, on presentation and surrender of the annexed interest coupons at said Third National Bank.\"\n\"This bond is issued under an ordinance of the City Council of the said City of La Grange passed and approved September 22, 1871, under and in pursuance of an act of the Legislature of the State of Missouri entitled 'An act to amend an act entitled an act to incorporate the City of La Grange,' approved March 9, 1871, which became a law and went into force and effect from and after its said approval.\"\n\"This bond to be negotiable and transferable by delivery thereof.\"\n\"In testimony whereof, the City Council of the City of La Grange hath hereunto caused to be affixed the corporate seal of said city, and these presents to be signed by the mayor, and countersigned by the clerk, of the city council of said city this 14th day of December, 1871.\"\n\"[Seal]\"\n\"J. A. HAY, Mayor\"\n\"R. McChesney, Clerk\"\nThe petition alleged that the City of La Grange, on December 14, 1871, executed the twenty-five bonds, and delivered them to the La Grange Iron and Steel Company under and by virtue of the authority contained in section 1 of article 6 of the city charter, as amended by an Act of the Legislature of Missouri approved March 9, 1871, which section, as thus amended, was set forth in the petition, and is copied in the margin, [Footnote 1] and under and by virtue of an ordinance of the city\ndated September 22, 1871, by which an election was authorized to be held in the city on October 4, 1871, to test the sense of the people of the city upon the question of issuing the bonds; that in compliance with the ordinance and with the city charter, an election was held at which the proposition was adopted by a two-thirds vote of the qualified voters, and that on September 1, 1872, the plaintiff bought the twenty-five bonds for value, relying upon the recitals on their face, without knowledge of any irregularity or defect in their issue -- of all which the defendant had notice -- by means whereof the defendant became liable and promised to pay to the plaintiff the sums specified in the coupons according to their tenor and effect.\nThe answer denied all the allegations of the petition, and for further answer averred that the act of the legislature mentioned in the petition, approved March 9, 1871, attempted to give and by terms did give to the city authority to make gifts and donations to private manufacturing associations and corporations; that the city council, purporting to act under such authority, by an ordinance adopted September 22, 1871, which was referred to in the answer and is copied in the margin, [Footnote 2] did submit to a vote of the citizens a proposition to\ngive or donate to the La Grange Iron and Steel Company, a private manufacturing company formed and established for the purpose of carrying on and operating a rolling-mill, the sum of $200,000; that in accordance with that ordinance, the bonds of the city were issued, with interest coupons attached a part of which were those sued on, and that the bonds and coupons were issued to said manufacturing company, which was a strictly private enterprise, formed and prosecuted for the purpose of private gain, and which had nothing whatever of a public character, and it was incompetent for the legislature to grant authority to cities or towns to make donations and issue bonds to mere private companies or associations having no public functions to perform, and the act of the legislature and the ordinance of the city were void, wherefore the bonds and coupons were issued without any legal authority, and were wholly void.\nTo this answer the plaintiff filed a general demurrer, which was overruled by the court and, the plaintiff electing to stand by his demurrer, judgment was entered for the defendant. 19 F. 871. The plaintiff sued out this writ of error.\nMR. JUSTICE GRAY delivered the opinion of the Court. He recited the facts as above stated and continued:\nThe general grant of legislative power in the constitution of a state does not enable the legislature, in the exercise either of the right of eminent domain or of the right of taxation, to take private property without the owner's consent, for any but a public object. Nor can the legislature authorize counties, cities, or towns to contract, for private objects, debts which must be paid by taxes. It cannot, therefore, authorize them to issue bonds to assist merchants or manufacturers, whether natural persons or corporations, in their private business. These limits of the legislative power are now too firmly established by judicial decisions to require extended argument upon the subject.\nIn Loan Association v. Topeka, 20 Wall. 655, bonds of a city, issued, as appeared on their face, pursuant to an act of the Legislature of Kansas to a manufacturing corporation to aid it in establishing shops in the city for the manufacture of iron bridges, were held by this Court to be void even in the hands of a purchaser in good faith and for value. A like decision was made in Parkersburg v. Brown, 106 U. S. 487. The decisions in the courts of the states are to the same effect. Allen v. Jay, 60 Me. 124; Lowell v. Boston, 111 Mass. 454; Weismer v. Douglas, 64 N.Y. 91; In re Eureka Co., 96 N.Y. 42; Bissell v. Kankakee, 64 Ill. 249; English v. People, 96 Ill.\n566; Central Branch Union Pacific Railroad v. Smith, 23 Kan. 745.\nWe have been referred to no opposing decision. The cases of Hackett v. Ottawa, 99 U. S. 86, and Ottawa v. National Bank, 105 U. S. 342, were decided, as THE CHIEF JUSTICE pointed out in Ottawa v. Carey, 108 U. S. 110, 108 U. S. 118, upon the ground that the bonds in suit appeared on their face to have been issued for municipal purposes, and were therefore valid in the hands of bona fide holders. In Livingston v. Darlington, 101 U. S. 407, the town subscription was toward the establishment of a state reform school, which was undoubtedly a public purpose, and the question in controversy was whether it was a corporate purpose within the meaning of the Constitution of Illinois. In Burlington v. Beasley, 94 U. S. 310, the grist mill, held to be a work of internal improvement, to aid in constructing which a town might issue bonds under the statutes of Kansas was a public mill which ground for toll for all customers. See Osborne v. Adams Co. 106 U. S. 181, and 109 U. S. 109 U.S. 1; Blair v. Cuming County, 111 U. S. 363. Subscriptions and bonds of towns and cities under legislative authority to aid in establishing railroads have been sustained on the same ground on which the delegation to railroad corporations of the sovereign right of eminent domain has been justified -- the accommodation of public travel. Rogers v. Burlington, 3 Wall. 654; Queensbury v. Culver, 19 Wall. 83; Loan Association v. Topeka, 20 Wall. 661, 87 U. S. 662; Taylor v. Ypsilanti, 105 U. S. 60. Statutes authorizing towns and cities to pay bounties to soldiers have been upheld because the raising of soldiers is a public duty. Middleton v. Township of Mullica, 112 U. S. 433; Taylor v. Thompson, 42 Ill. 9; Hilbish v. Catherman, 64 Penn.St. 154; State v. Richland Township, 20 Ohio St. 362; Agawam v. Hampden, 130 Mass. 528, 534.\nThe express provisions of the Constitution of Missouri tend to the same conclusion. It begins with a Declaration of Rights, the sixteenth article of which declares that \"No private property ought to be taken or applied to public use without just compensation.\" This clearly presupposes that private property cannot be taken for private use. St. Louis County Court v.\nGriswold, 58 Mo. 175, 193; 2 Kent Com. 339 note, 340. Otherwise, as it makes no provision for compensation except when the use is public, it would permit private property to be taken or appropriated for private use without any compensation whatever. It is true that this article regards the right of eminent domain, and not the power to tax, for the taking of property by taxation requires no other compensation than the taxpayer receives in being protected by the government to the support of which he contributes. But so far as respects the use, the taking of private property by taxation is subject to the same limit as the taking by the right of eminent domain. Each is a taking by the state for the public use, and not to promote private ends.\nThe only other provisions of the Constitution of Missouri having any relation to the subject are the following sections of the eleventh article:\n\"SEC. 13. The credit of the state shall not be given or loaned in aid of any person, association, or corporation, nor shall the state hereafter become a stockholder in any corporation or association except for the purpose of securing loans heretofore extended to certain railroad corporations by the state.\"\n\"SEC. 14. The General Assembly shall not authorize any county, city, or town to become a stockholder in, or loan its credit to, any company, association, or corporation unless two-thirds of the qualified voters of such county, city, or town at a regular or special election to be held therein, shall assent thereto.\"\nBoth these sections are restrictive, and not enabling. The thirteenth section peremptorily denies to the state the power of giving or lending its credit to or becoming a stockholder in any corporation whatever. The aim of the fourteenth section is to forbid the legislature to authorize counties, cities, or towns, without the assent of the taxpayers, to become stockholders in, or to lend their credit to, any corporation, however public its object, State v. Curators State University, 57 Mo. 178, not to permit them to be authorized under any circumstances to raise or spend money for private purposes.\nIt is averred in the answer and admitted by the demurrer\nthat the La Grange Iron and Steel Company, to which the bonds were issued, was \"a private manufacturing company, formed for the purpose of carrying on and operating a rolling mill,\" and \"was a strictly private enterprise, formed and prosecuted for the purpose of private gain, and which had nothing whatever of a public character.\" The ordinance referred to shows that the mill was to manufacture railroad iron, but that is no more a public use than the manufacture of iron bridges, as in the Topeka case, or the making of blocks of stone or wood for paving streets. There can be no doubt, therefore, that the act of the Legislature of Missouri is unconstitutional, and that the bonds expressed to be issued in pursuance of that act are void upon their face.\nAs for this reason the action cannot be maintained, it is needless to dwell upon the point that the answer demurred to, besides the special defense of the unconstitutionality of the act, contains a general denial of the allegations in the petition. That point was mentioned and passed over in the opinion of the circuit court, and was not alluded to in argument here, the parties in effect assuming the general denial in the answer to have been withdrawn or waived, and the case submitted for decision upon the validity of the special defense.\n\"SECT 1. The city council shall have power to levy and collect taxes upon all real and personal property within the limits of the corporation, not to exceed one-half of one percent per annum upon the assessed valuation thereof, in any manner to be provided by ordinance not repugnant to the Constitution of the State of Missouri. And whenever twenty-five persons who are taxpayers and residents of the City of La Grange shall petition the city council setting forth their desire to donate or subscribe to the capital stock of any railroad or manufacturing company, or for the improvement of any road leading into the city, or for increasing the trade, travel, or commerce thereof, or for securing the location and maintenance of any manufacturing company, stating the terms and conditions on which they desire such donation or subscription to be made, it shall be the duty of the city council to order an election to be held at which the qualified voters of said city shall be allowed to vote, and if it shall appear from the returns of said election that two-thirds of the resident taxpayers have voted in favor of such donation or subscription, it shall be declared carried by proclamation of the mayor, and a special tax of not exceeding two percent per annum may be levied on the assessed value of real and personal property to pay such donation or subscription, and the city council shall, under the hand of the mayor, and attested by the seal of said city, issue bonds of the City of La Grange to the amount of the capital stock so subscribed, or to the amount of the donation made to any such enterprise, or for any purpose hereinbefore specified, which said bonds shall be conditioned upon the proposition submitted and voted upon at the election held for that purpose, and said bonds shall not bear a greater rate of interest than ten percent per annum.\"\n\"Be it ordained by the City Council of the City of La Grange as follows: that, upon petition of John M. Glover and twenty-five other taxpayers of said city, that an election be and is hereby ordered to be held at the city hall in said city on Wednesday, the fourth day of October next to test the sense of the legal voters of said city on the propriety of the said city's donating ten acres of land and two hundred thousand dollars in city bonds, to be due in thirty years from date and to bear interest at the rate of eight percent per annum, the interest to be paid semiannually at New York or Boston to Isaac R. Adams and associates in consideration that the said Isaac R. Adams and associates will build and construct at the City of La Grange a rolling iron mill of sufficient capacity to roll twenty-five thousand tons of railroad iron per annum, the said mill to be built within one year from the date of the election herein ordered, and the said company shall operate and maintain the same at the City of La Grange for the term of twenty years from its completion, in accordance with the memorandum and agreement here filed on this date, and on the ballot of each voter shall be written or printed 'For the donation' or 'Against the donation.' Adopted September 22d, 1871.\"",

The center will eventually store 300 million genetic samples. Currently, it stores 10 million samples. China National GeneBank (CNGB) will be the biggest genetic research center in the world as well as a major center for computer science and data science because information storage, processing and analysis will be a big part of its function.\n\u201cEstablished by BGI-Shenzhen, the China National GeneBank (CNGB) is the first national genebank integrating a large-scale bio-repository and an omics database. It is approved by Chinese government, with the mission of collecting, preserving and exploiting genomics resources, and to build a network fostering global communication and collaboration on biodiversity conservation and genetic resources utilization. In addition, CNGB is supported by BGI\u2019s high-throughput sequencing and bio-informatics capacity, and it will not only provide a repository system for biological collection, but more importantly develop a novel platform to further understand genomic mechanisms of life. \u201d CNGB\nThe news article about CNGB mentions that the data now stored in \u00adShenzhen was previously housed at the National Centre for Biotechnology Information in the US, the European Bioinformatics Institute in Britain and the DNA Data Bank of Japan.\nThis entry was posted in biology, computer science and tagged Computer Science, Genetics.

        "raw_content": "All Action Groups and delegates are selected to promote progress towards the fulfillment of the Church\u2019s mission.\nThe Tabernacle Council\nThe Tabernacle Council is not an Action Group. The Council consists of two Co-moderators, a Clerk, a Treasurer, a Financial Secretary and an Assistant Financial Secretary. The Called Pastor and at least four at-large members chosen from the congregation complete the council. The Council is basically a group that is charged with soliciting and listening to the many voices of the congregation. It is the guiding hand for the many decisions and actions on the part insuring that the organization and resources of the church are directed toward the fulfillment of the church\u2019s mission statement and any specific goals adopted by congregation.\nChristian Education Action Group\nChristian Education Action Group at Tabernacle Church nurtures the faith formation and spiritual growth through worship, education, prayer, song, mission work, youth groups and intergenerational activities.\nWe strive to recognize God\u2019s light in ourselves and in each other. Christian Education provides nursery care for infants-preschoolers. Sunday school is provided for kindergarden-8th grade using God Play for younger children and Feasting on the Word curriculum for tweens and teens. Confirmation classes are offered for teens. Bible Study is offered for adults.\nWe follow Jesus\u2019 example reaching out to our community locally and globally. Youth Groups for elementary, middle school and high school youth offer opportunity to complete service activities and mission work and to build a fun community together.\nIntergenerational worship services include Communion Sundays (the first Sunday of the month), Maundy Thursday, Easter Sunrise service and the Christmas Pageant.\nThe Deacons are primarily responsible for the spiritual life of the church. It shall be the duty of the Deacons to support the Pastor in discerning and nurturing the spirit in Tabernacle Church. In particular they support the Pastor in carrying out the life of the Spirit through confirmation, Pastoral care, worship, baptism, communion, weddings, funerals, and special services. The Deacons welcome new members into the church and are concerned with the nurturing and care of all members.\nHospitality coordinates the weekly coffee hour following Sunday Service each week.

It helps you to channel efficiently the various processes comprising an effective learning process and focused on the issues, require your most attention!\nThe ADDIE model is:\na framework that lists generic processes that instructional designers and training developers use. It represents a guideline for building effective training and performance support tools in five phases.(Wikipedia: ADDIE Model)\nIts name derived from the first letters of the 5 phases comprise the model, i.e. Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation. Each phase or step provides results that used as input to next phase.\nADDIE is an instructional design model, aiming at providing a coherent framework of processes required for the development, maintenance, and evolution of any training process. For this reason is very useful, today, in the areas of e-Learning and blended learning!\nThis model considered as one of the most successful models in the e-Learning area and, today, has more than 100 different variations.\nThe 5 Phases of ADDIE Model\nThe ADDIE model comprised of 5 phases. These are:\nAnalysis. The analysis phase aims at identifying the instructional objectives and problems, the environment in which learning occurs and the existing knowledge and skills of learners. The basic task of the analysis phase is to also identify the limitations and constraints may exist as well as the timetable for the implementation of the given project.\nDesign. The design phase is a systematic and specific phase aiming at identifying the required learning objectives, along with all the required activities, tasks, material, etc may be needed by the learners in order to achieve the specified learning objectives. In this phase, the visual design, the usability, the content, the storyboarding of the learning objects, the delivery options and the prototyping, are also specified!\nDevelopment. In the development phase all the blueprints, objects, assets, graphics, etc have been specified during the previous phase, are assembled and implemented by the development team in the form of learning units. In this phase are been developed the learning units, the content, the support material and the learning activities, along with every other resource needed for a successful (e-)learning process. Moreover, during this phase \u201cthe designers create storyboards and graphics. If e-learning is involved, programmers develop or integrate technologies. Testers debug materials and procedures. The project is reviewed and revised according to feedback\u201d (Wikipedia: ADDIE Model).\nImplementation. The implementation phase is the actual implementation phase of the (e-)learning project and consist of implementing the learning procedure in real conditions (even sometimes it is more preferable the implementation of the project in smaller proportions as a pilot project, before the full implementation! This can save a lot of money and resources pinpointing errors and faults may have been escaped during the previous phases). In this phase, the learners and tutors are trained to the specified learning procedures, and the training material, activities, and tasks are disseminated and evaluated.\nEvaluation. The evaluation phase is the last phase of the model and many time it leads to various cascading circles of repetition various phases of the model (if needed!). This phase consists of 2 parts: the formative and the summative evaluation. The formative evaluation is been done in each phase of ADDIE model. The summative evaluation \u201cconsists of tests designed for domain-specific criterion-related referenced items and providing opportunities for feedback from the users\u201d (ADDIE Model).\nQuestion: Have you ever use ADDIE for your work? Do you find ADDIE useful? How would you evaluate ADDIE?\nCategories: Business, e-Learning, Entrepreneurship, Productivity, Systems",

        "title": "Future-Proofing Shooting with The British Game Alliance - Talking Game",
        "raw_content": "Last year, around 20 million pheasant and partridge were shot in the UK. This figure is set to grow by 7%, meaning an additional 1.5 million birds in the coming year. On the face of it, shooting has never been more popular, better managed, and accessible. And yet, shooting is currently facing that most fashionable of predicaments, an existential crisis.\nShooting as a sport evolved from hunting for the pot, as the pages of this magazine emphasise in glorious variety. Game now represents the UK\u2019s only unregulated food produce, and those responsible for legislation abhor a regulatory vacuum. Our elected representatives in London, Cardiff, and Edinburgh may currently be preoccupied with other matters, but this has not prevented the Welsh Assembly from supporting a ban on reared pheasants on Government-owned land, with Scotland likely to follow. Labour\u2019s recent Animal Welfare bill, if enacted, would further restrict, if not entirely prohibit, intensive game rearing. As Richard Benyon, MP for Newbury, wrote recently: \u201cFrom where I sit in Parliament, I really feel shooting is in the last chance saloon. I am getting a little weary of a small number of those I talk to in the shooting world who think everything somehow will be alright. I can tell you it won\u2019t.\u201d\nAlan Benyon, Founder of St David\u2019s Veterinary Practices, makes clear the issue at stake. \u201cWe should treat these moves as a clear warning to game shooting \u2013 both as a sport and an industry. If we can\u2019t sell our shot game, there is no moral justification for shooting.\u201d\nIn addition to being MD of the UK\u2019s largest and most prestigious game vets, Benyon is a director of The British Game Alliance, which has been established to address this threat through two principal objectives: to bring real commercial value back to game, and to encourage the shooting community to self-regulate in order to avoid statutory intervention.\nTaking inspiration from initiatives such as Welsh Lamb and Scottish Quality Venison, as well as wider quality assurance standards in for example wine and cheese, the BGA\u2019s dedicated sales team is committed to exploring and expanding new markets, both locally and overseas. Working with specialist food PR agencies, engaging celebrity chefs and foodie influencers, it promotes the virtues of game as a healthy, free range, location-specific resource, with the BGA stamp of approval serving as a trusted mark of assurance. It brings together shoots, dealers, and retailers in a countrywide network to the clear advantage of all parties, including consumers.\nAlan Benyon, Founder of St David\u2019s Veterinary Practices, makes clear the issue at stake. \u201cWe should treat these moves as a clear warning to game shooting \u2013 both as a sport and and industry. If we can\u2019t sell our shot game, there is no moral justification for shooting.\u201d\nIn addition to being MD of the UK\u2019s largest and most prestigious game vets, Benyon is\na director of The British Game Alliance, which has been established to address this threat through two principal objectives: to bring real commercial value back to game, and to encourage the shooting community to self-regulate in order to avoid statutory intervention.\n\u201c If we can\u2019t sell our shot game, there is no moral justification for shooting.\nEssential to this task is the establishment of clear and relevant standards that maintain the integrity of the BGA quality mark. MD Tom Adams further clarifies BGA\u2019s ethos. \u201cWe\u2019re looking to the future and putting our beloved sport on the front foot. For too long we have let the fight come to us, and I wholeheartedly believe that the BGA gives us the security we need. I hope shoots continue to join and embrace self-regulation.\u201d Determined in consultation with shoots, supermarkets, food procurers and trade organisations, these quality benchmarks will be regulated by external auditors and act as the consumer\u2019s guarantee of excellence.\nThe risks to shooting should standards in the field, as well as the processing of shot game, not stand up to stringent scrutiny are obvious, and require the attention of all who are involved in and love the sport to ensure its survival. To quote James Percy at Alnwick Castle, a BGA patron: \u201cOur collective job in the industry is to ensure that there is joined up thinking as food suppliers, that our product is handled, fed, collected and to a certain extent processed in the correct manner from chick to carcass through ensuring a code of good practice. I am pleased to see the BGA singularly addressing this.\u201d\nThus membership of BGA has clear advantages for shoots. It demonstrates to politicians that we can competently self-regulate, making legislative intervention unnecessary. It supports the work of the BGA in championing game to the wider public, opening up new current and future competitive markets for your birds. It adds immediate commercial value by improving the marketability of both game and let days, increasing revenue and margins. It allows shoots to conform to the standards for game production that the food industry requires. It shows that the shooting community really cares about bird welfare and the environment. We at Talking Game, whose aspirations for shooting and game so closely echo those of the BGA, join the main shooting organisations in the UK in backing the BGA and urge all shoots that are not yet members to visit their website to find out about exciting new developments, and learn how lovers of shooting can do their bit in keeping shooting alive.",

        "raw_content": "Absolutely Interesting and Nutritious Food Facts About Chicken\nChicken is probably the most popular of all meat products. Some interesting food facts about chicken are described in the following article. Read on to know more.\nChicken is probably the most eaten and most loved non-vegetarian food product. This bird was probably domesticated in the very early centuries, after the nomadic man started settling down and domesticated animals for his benefit.\nThis bird is a descendant of the Red Junglefowl hybrid. The Gray Junglefowl were in fact domesticated before the Red Junglefowl. The idea to domesticate Junglefowl originated in the northern parts of India.\nOne can keep a raw chicken frozen for a time span of about 2 years. Though this kind of storage is possible and does not change the taste or flavor, it is advisable not to consume chicken stored for such a prolonged time period.\nHave you heard about incubators that are used at poultry farms? Well, the prototype appeared about 4,000 years ago in Egypt, and it could hold 10,000 chicks.\nA poultry farm worker who separates chicks into males and females is known as the sexer, and can separate 1,000 chicks per hour with almost 100% accuracy.\nChicken is not just popular, but it is also the staple diet of many people. Over 80 pounds of this meat is consumed by an average American every year.\nIf you are health and diet conscious, then this is something that you should definitely know. An average dish of cooked chicken meat, weighting about 4 ounces, contains 337 calories. If you fry it, then the calories almost double.\nThe human body can derive about 30 different nutritional substances from just 100 grams of chicken.\nJust as the nutritional value of chicken is very high, so is the energy measure. 100 grams of this meat contains about 916 kilojoules of energy.\nThere are 120 calories on an average in one serving of chicken meat. Sounds less for one serving, but it totals up to a big figure when we have a meal. They say that a good sense of taste on the tongue and a big appetite is not just a virtue, but it can also be a vice.\nFried Chicken Facts\nFried chicken nutrition? Well, about 900 calories per serving, that contain about 50 grams fat, 200 milligrams of cholesterol, carbohydrates, oils, and proteins. Phew, that's quite a lot! Avoid eating at night, and if you do, exercise the next day.\nMore than half the entr\u00e9es ordered in fast food chains, hotels, motels, and restaurants are versions of fried chicken.\nDid fried chicken originate in the United States? The answer is \"yes and no\". Fried chicken that we eat today originated in the United States, but the concept of frying this meat originated in Europe in the Middle Ages.\nChicken Soup Facts\nEverybody enjoys a bowl of chicken soup when they are down with flu. Because of this, more than half the revenue of chicken soup manufactures of the United States is generated during the cold and flu season.\nThe chickens that are used to make soup products are known as \"stewing hens\".\nThere are several other facts about chicken that we do not know. For example, in olden times, Blancmange was made with chicken, meat, and sugar.",

Instead, as this is a column (broadly) about technology, I\u2019ll confine myself to the entirely unrelated news that Microsoft is joining a coalition to oppose Google\u2019s settlement with the US publishing industry over Book Search. I\u2019ll also touch on the totally unanalogous fact that they\u2019re funding a New York Law School investigation into their biggest rival\u2019s anti-competitive behaviour.\nAvid TechCrunch readers would be forgiven for having missed this latest development in the Google Book Search saga. After all, in recent weeks this once-fiercely bipartisan publication has thrust itself headlong into an orgy of Google adulation \u2013 a veritable golden shower of fanboyism \u2013 apparently triggered by Arrington\u2019s discovery that his Android phone is a bit better than the iPhone.\nNary a day goes by without the Dear Leader splurging more praise over his precious new handset and the undeniably paradigm-shifting fact that it allows him to use Google Voice. In that context, writing a negative story about anything happening in Mountain View might be considered at best inadvisable, at worst sacrilegious.\nBut as usual I\u2019m not afraid to be the voice in the wilderness. To risk ostracism by asking the questions that need asking: namely, doesn\u2019t Microsoft actually have a point? I mean, where the hell does Google get off criticising Apple for anti-competitive practices when they\u2019re about to be investigated by the Department of Justice for the exact same thing?\nSome background, if you need it. Back in 2005, the US book industry \u2013 as represented mainly by The Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers \u2013 launched a class-action suit against Google over the Search God\u2019s plans to scan the world\u2019s books and make them searchable through Google Books.\nLate last year, after millions of dollars in lawyers fees had changed hands, a settlement was agreed between the parties. Much of it was uncontroversial \u2013 a win-win, even: Google would pay a token $60 scanning fee to authors of in-copyright (US) works in return for being allowed to display short extracts of the books as part of their search results. For out-of-print books, users could also pay to download digital copies of the entire work, with a reasonably decent commission being paid to the publisher or author for each download. For in-print books, users would be referred to online retailers or libraries to buy or rent. So far, so fair.\nBut one aspect of the settlement wasn\u2019t so uncontroversial, and that was the issue of so-called \u2018orphan works\u2019 \u2013 books which are still in copyright but where the identity of the copyright owner is, for one reason or another, unclear. As part of the settlement, the book industry agreed that, with certain restrictions, Google could scan orphan works without being held liable for breach of copyright claims if the rights owner subsequently came forward. In return Google agreed to create an independent (and open to all) rights registry letting authors of orphaned stake their copyright claim.\nAt first glance, the deal over orphaned works seems as reasonable as the rest of the settlement \u2013 these are books for which no-one is being paid and which otherwise would be hidden away in libraries and second hand bookstores. But still Google\u2019s competitors are crying foul.\nThe Internet Archive is particularly annoyed, arguing that they too are scanning millions of books for the public good, but without any blanket copyright protection for orphaned works. And so, through a group they call Open Content Alliance, they hope to pressure the Department of Justice to extend the terms of the settlement to everyone, not just Google.\nFor the other companies joining the Alliance \u2013 including Microsoft, Yahoo and Amazon \u2013 there are more obvious and nakedly commercial reasons to oppose the settlement. But that doesn\u2019t make their objections less valid. Back in April, Erick Schonfeld wrote a passionate \u2013 and compelling \u2013 argument for the immunity to apply to everyone so that Google wouldn\u2019t have a monopoly position where they could effectively charge whatever they like for downloading digital copies of orphaned works.\nSo, yeah, Google love-in be damned \u2013 let\u2019s ask the tough quesions. If Google really does care about making the world\u2019s information free, surely bringing rivals into the orphaned works party is the very least they can do? Whatever happened to \u2018don\u2019t be evil\u2019?\nErick may be dead right in demanding the orphans be freed, but the Open Content Alliance is dead wrong in both their method and motives for making that happen. Let\u2019s take a quick look at some of the loudest Alliance members, shall we?\nFirst there\u2019s Microsoft \u2013 the kings of the anti-trust violation, the monarchs of monopoly. This is a company that gave the Internet Archive ten million dollars to scan books, only to pull the plug when they realised that they couldn\u2019t make any money from their own book search service. The truth is, Microsoft couldn\u2019t give a damn about making information free \u2013 remember Encarta? -but they\u2019ll stop at nothing to prevent Google from succeeding where they failed. If Google Genocide launched tomorrow, you can be sure there\u2019d be a lawyer from Redmond whining to a judge that they should be allowed a piece of the action.\nAt least Amazon wears its biases on its sleeve \u2013 in March, Google signed a deal with Sony to put 500,000 public domain titles, scanned by the former, on to the latter\u2019s e-reader device. At a stroke, Sony\u2019s library of ebooks overtook Amazon\u2019s (then) 250,000-strong database. And unlike Sony, which uses the open ePub standard for its titles, Amazon still insists on using its own ridiculous proprietary format. If they really were serious about making books more widely available, they could start by fixing the crappy PDF support for the Kindle.\nAnd then there\u2019s Yahoo. Poor old bandwagon-jumping Yahoo. Nothing to see here; let\u2019s move on.\nAnd yet if you look past the most vocal members of the Alliance, there are countless member organisations with bags of credibility, including thousands of libraries and universities. And there\u2019s the Internet Archive itself, and their legal expert, Gary Reback. Both boast solid credentials \u2013 the Internet Archive has worked tirelessly, and non-commercially, to digitise out-of-copyright books, while Reback is probably the valley\u2019s most high-profile anti-monopoly activist.\n(If Reback\u2019s name sounds familiar it\u2019s because in the 90s he was instrumental in persuading the DoJ to investigate Microsoft for anti-trust violations \u2013 and also because in a recent interview with Michael Arrington he said that, he doesn\u2019t think Microsoft should have been split in two because the investigation itself was enough to make the company change its ways. Apparently in Reback welcoming Microsoft into the Alliance, the enemy of his enemy is now his friend.)\nAll of which leads me to the real question that needs to be asked this week: what on earth are the Internet Archive and Gary Reback and the libraries, universities and other legitimate members of the Open Content Alliance thinking?\nThe stated aims of the Alliance \u2013 to \u2018build a permanent archive of multilingual digitized text and multimedia material\u2019 \u2013 are solid, and their position that Google\u2019s legal immunity over orphaned works should be extended to all is laudable. But by palling around with anti-trust terrorists, self-interested champions of DRM and conflict-funded law schools, they\u2019re undermining all of that by making themselves look like corporate shills.\nIf I were the Alliance\u2019s legal advisor, I\u2019d recommend that they leave the anti-trust nonsense to Google\u2019s conflicted rivals and instead focus their efforts on lobbying for a change to the US Copyright Act. Google has already said that they would support a change in the law to shore up the status of their searchable rights registry and to protect all users of unregistered orphan works from breach of copyright claims.\nThe Alliance should be working with Google to make that change happen \u2013 and that includes Amazon who really has no business siding with a bunch of sour-grapes-fuelled anti-trust cheerleaders.\nBeyond that, if I were advising the Alliance, I\u2019d tell them to shut up about extending the settlement to all comers. Google has spent millions of dollars being forced into the deal they now have with publishers and it\u2019s frankly ludicrous to expect them to share those hard-fought spoils with their biggest competitors.\nGoogle Books may be a commercial enterprise, and it may be establishing a position where it can dictate terms to authors and publishers. But it also happens to be the best book search product the world has ever seen. Really, it\u2019s incredible. And if the likes of Amazon and the Internet Archive started working with it rather than against it, it could also be the answer to rewarding book authors in a digital age, tidying up the mess of orphaned works, making books accessible to a new generation of readers and \u2013 hell \u2013 shifting a few million more e-books and e-book readers. And with a change in the law to allow everyone to exploit orphaned works, many of the anti-trust issues that Reback hates so much would vanish too. That really would be a win-win.\nBut of course I\u2019m not anyone\u2019s legal advisor; I\u2019m just a guy who writes a technology column for money. And, as I may have mentioned before, an author. And a former co-founder of a publishing company. I mean, really this isn\u2019t my field. I\u2019m just glad that once again Google is in the right, and their rivals are in the wrong. The TechCrunch/Google circle jerk can continue for another week.\nAwesome. Someone pass me the Gool-aid.",

My village is small and is surrounded by fields. Most people in my village are old. Most of the young people have left the village to go to the cities to look for work.\nThe main streets in my village are made of asphalt. The other roads are made of dirt. In the main center of town the buildings are 2 or 3 stories, no taller. All other buildings are one-story like the homes in the village. We have a small sports complex with a gym where basketball and table tennis are played, a movie theater, a grocery and home goods store, a furniture store, and an electronics store.\nI never even dreamt about coming to the USA, but God\u2019s will was different than mine. I came to America in 2009, because my then-husband is from the U.S.A.\nI thank my ex-husband who took me to so many amazing places around this country. I saw the Rocky Mountains, the Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, and Willis Tower. These places were so impressive!\nI didn\u2019t know how everything was here in the United States before I came here. But I can tell you, that I love everything here. It\u2019s totally different compared to my native country Russia.\nBeing in a new country is very different and is a very different life. One difference is that in America the streets are so clean and there is bright green grass everywhere. Another difference is that people smile and are friendly. It makes me happy.\nI have met many great persons that have helped me figure out life in the United States. The hardest part was learning the language , but I learned it quickly and was able to understand Americans in one year. I feel like I\u2019m one of them now.\nAnd yes, I am an American citizen right now and am happy about it! I thank the Lord who moves me here and gave me a chance to be successfully happy in this great country of America!\nPrevious Post Cameroon\nElena, thank you for telling us your story. We are happy that you are here.\nElena, I learned Russian in high school and intensively studied Russian history, but never had a chance to travel there.

Well, they are turned into the Ronald McDonald House in Colorado Springs. For every pound of pop tabs turned in, they get between 25 cents and 30 cents, and a pound is around 1,267 pop tabs. In one year the approximate amount of money they receive is $3,000, so that is a lot of pop tabs. The money raised from the pop tabs will be put to use in the House by buying stuff that is needed.\nThe Ronald McDonald House is a place where families with kids in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Memorial Hospital for Children can stay while their children are staying in the hospital. This is their main focus, but it also helps people who have kids in the Pediatric/Pediatric Intensive Care Units at Memorial, as well as St. Francis Medical Center. When you have kids in the hospital, you may not be able to pay for a hotel and you would need somewhere more comfortable than a chair for days on end. The Ronald McDonald House offers a place for families to sleep and relax not far from the hospital. The House offers nine bedrooms, five bathrooms, and you are able to get a home-cooked meal on most nights. It has a play/living room, and a fenced yard with a play area in it.\nThe pop tabs are just one way for you to help the Ronald McDonald House. You can make money donations. You can volunteer. You can purchase things to send that are on the wish list on the Ronald McDonald website. You also can take part in their meal program. Any way you help the Ronald McDonald House helps the families that are staying there and are going through a hard time.\nWould you like to help the 4-H\u0092ers of Montezuma County help the Ronald McDonald house and help others? Please collect your pop tabs and then call me and I will come and pick them up and they will be taken up to Colorado Springs after the county fair. My name is Emily Graf, and my home number is 970-533-7548. The pop tabs are also collected in a basket at Ted\u0092s (by the Conoco) in Mancos.\nThere will be an enchilada dinner fundraiser March 19 for the concert that will take place at the fair. They will start serving at 5 p.m. at the Lewis-Arriola Community Center. Following the dinner, there will be a silent auction and dessert auction. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for kids under 5. If you would like tickets, you can contact the Extension Office at 565-3123 or any 4-H member. You also can also get your tickets at the door.\nThe next County Council Meeting will be at 7 p.m. March 14 at the Montezuma County Annex, 103 N. Chestnut, Cortez. Here are some of the highlights from last month\u0092s meeting. It was decided that the proceeds from the pumpkin patch will go to the clubs that help take care of the pumpkins. The scholarship in honor of Jan Sennhenn was discussed. The committee that is getting it together talked to Mrs. Sennhenn and found out how she wanted it to be, and it went back to the clubs.

        "raw_content": "2018: A transformational year for ride hailing\nThis picture shows a motorcycle driver with Indonesian start-up Go-Jek waiting for customers along a street in Jakarta. (Adek Berry / AFP Photo)\nThis year has been transformational for the ride hailing sector in Southeast Asia according to a recent joint report by Google and Singapore\u2019s Temasek Holdings.\nWith the merger of Grab and Uber in March, and the latter\u2019s withdrawal of services from the region, Grab has consolidated its leadership in the sector. Soon after, Indonesian ride hailing unicorn, Go-Jek announced a regional expansion plan covering the two largest ASEAN markets after Indonesia \u2013 Vietnam and the Philippines \u2013 as well as other promising markets like Singapore and Thailand.\nIn the midst of this excitement, it is estimated that consumer adoption of ride hailing services will continue to quadruple from 2015 levels to eight million ride bookings daily with 35 million active users. Despite this growth, there is enormous headroom for the sector to still grow further as more than 80 percent of Southeast Asian internet users are still not active ride hailing users.\nThe ride hailing sector which includes online transport and online food delivery has reached US$7.7 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) in 2018 growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 39 percent since 2015. These services are widely available in more than 500 Southeast Asian cities. Moving forward, the ride hailing sector is projected to be worth close to US$30 billion by 2025.\nRide hailing has gained incredible traction in Indonesia, reaching US$3.7 billion in 2018 after growing at a CAGR of 58 percent since 2015. It is now the largest and fastest growing market in the region. Online food delivery has also seen explosive growth exceeding US$1 billion in the country.\nSingapore comes in as the second largest market in the region despite a significantly smaller user base. In 2018, it recorded an estimated US$1.8 billion in GMV primarily due to fares for online transport rides and online food delivery orders which can be five to 10 times higher than markets like Indonesia or Vietnam.\nSource: Google-Temasek eConomy Report 2018\nSince their launch in Southeast Asia, ride hailing players have been actively focussing on acquiring users and expanding geographically. The main tussle for dominance in the region is between Grab and Go-Jek. Leveraging on promotions for riders, incentives for drivers and aggressive marketing campaigns, the two giants have been attempting to stamp their mark as the dominant ride-sharing player \u2013 more so for Grab which has a wider regional appeal than Indonesian-focussed Go-Jek.\nBeyond transport and food delivery services, ride hailing players like Grab and Go-Jek have increasingly been looking into a third area of focus \u2013 online financial services. Digital payment solutions by the two brands have been gaining user adoption thanks to their convenience, benefits and rewards system.\nGrab and Go-Jek have also started offering future services like money transfers, personal lending, insurance and investment products. Such initiatives will face stiff competition from existing banking and financial players and will inspire a wave of new fintech start-ups aiming to win the hearts of Southeast Asia\u2019s internet users in the still largely untapped online financial services space.\nRegional digital economy hits inflection point\nSoutheast Asia\u2019s internet economy is slated to be worth more than US$240 billion by 2025 according to the joint study. The region\u2019s internet economy has hit an inflection point primarily due to its growing internet base.\nPrevious projections foresaw a US$200 billion internet economy for the region by 2025. However, that number has since been revised upwards by US$40 billion thanks to drastic market acceleration in industries like e-commerce, online media, online travel and ride hailing.\nIt is estimated that due to an increasingly engaged internet user base, Southeast Asia\u2019s internet economy has reached US$72 billion in GMV for 2018 across these industries. This represents a growth of 37 percent from the previous year and has accelerated beyond the 32 percent CAGR recorded between 2015 and 2018.\nFintech sandboxes in Southeast Asia\nRide Hailing,\nDigital Payment,",

        "raw_content": "Keeping land in indigenous hands\nThis picture shows villagers preparing their temporary camp at the second blockade near the proposed dam on the Baram River in Long Keseh, in Malaysia's Sarawak state on the island of Borneo. (Mohd Rasfan / AFP Photo)\nMalaysia\u2019s indigenous peoples comprise over 67 ethnic groups, representing around 14 percent of the country\u2019s population. While they live in almost every state and territory within the country and are afforded special status by the constitution, indigenous people often suffer from poverty and social exclusion.\nDespite socio-economic limitations, the indigenous people of Malaysia seem to be saddled with the responsibility of having to fight for the survival of the country\u2019s forested areas. Indigenous groups and defenders of indigenous land are at the frontline of forest conservation. This has exposed them to the increased risk of harassment, intimidation, arrests and even death.\nAccording to a report by Amnesty International on the struggle to defend Malaysia\u2019s indigenous land released this week, this threat is made possible by the absence of government protection and the culture of impunity that sides with transgressors. The report highlighted the emblematic death of Bill Kayong - a grassroots activist working to mobilise Dayak communities in Bekelit who are facing a land dispute - who was shot dead in the city of Miri, in the state of Sarawak in June 2016.\nBlood spilled for ancestral land\n\u201cBill\u2019s death is the only case Amnesty International documented in which a person has been held accountable for the threats, intimidation and violence committed by individuals described as \u201cgangsters\u201d against members of indigenous communities defending their right to land, or those helping them. In this case, however, only one person \u2013 the man believed to have pulled the trigger \u2013 has faced proper trial. Those who gave the orders for the attack are believed to remain at large,\u201d the report stated.\nAccording to Amnesty International, while most other Malaysians have profited from the country\u2019s growth, the first people to inhabit the land faced encroachment and are prevented from benefiting from their traditional sources of livelihood as a result of the development. This has left them exposed to poverty and further marginalisation.\n\u201cIn the worst cases, they have been summarily dispossessed of their lands, forced from their homes, and made to witness the depletion and degradation of natural resources they lay claim to. The main reason for this is the lack of recognition and implementation of indigenous peoples\u2019 rights to land in law, policy and practice. While the Malaysian Federal Constitution provides for the right to property and some recognition of indigenous land, in reality, there is a lack of realisation of these provisions,\u201d stated Amnesty International.\nMore intact forests in indigenous regions\nGlobally, there are around 370 million people who recognise themselves as indigenous, with many of them having strong and steadfast spiritual and cultural relationships with their land. For the indigenous, the concept of land and territories has many dimensions vital to their collective identity. Their connection to land goes beyond heritage and ways of life, to a lifeline for food, medicine and survival, as well as a major cause of struggle and death. The disappearance of forests could spell the death knell to indigenous cultures.\nAccording to a global spatial overview of indigenous lands and conservation by Nature Sustainability journal in July this year, collectively, the various group of indigenous people manage or have tenure rights over at least 37.9 million square kilometres or 28.1 percent in 87 countries or politically distinct areas. The overview provided more evidence to the growing narrative and recognition that indigenous rights to land and stewardship are key to local and global conservation goals.\n\u201cA higher proportion or 67 percent of indigenous peoples\u2019 lands was classified as natural compared with 44 percent of other lands. Consistent with this, most parts of the planet managed and/or owned by indigenous peoples have low-intensity land uses,\u201d stated the authors of the overview.\nBased on information compiled from 127 data sources from around the world, the overview found that land where indigenous people retain substantial influence over decision making on use, development and care of land resources, are many of the world\u2019s most sparsely populated, intact places.\nIn Malaysia and many other countries in the region and around the world that are home to indigenous groups, it is not the lack of real will on the ground that is threatening the survival of forested areas and diverse biodiversity. Instead, the blame lies with a lack of will at the top and the general population who simply choose not to listen.\nIndigenous people: The struggle for home\nDeveloping an appetite for whale conservation\nCan ASEAN safeguard its islands?\nIndigenous Land,\nBill Kayong,\nLand Rights Activists,\nIntact Forests,",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Third Quarter 2012 Market Update\nLongevity risk brings insured products into retirement conversation \u2192\n{via Yahoo! Finance and The New York Times}\nIT\u2019S not news that health care costs are increasing. Yet several recent studies show that few people factor those rising costs into their retirement plans.\nConsider this example from an annual report from Fidelity Investments: For a 65-year-old couple retiring this year, the cost of health care in retirement will be $240,000, 6 percent more than that same couple retiring in 2011 would pay. The report assumes that the man will live 17 years and the woman 20.\u201cMost people don\u2019t realize Medicare covers much less than traditional employer plans,\u201d Sunit Patel, senior vice president in Fidelity\u2019s benefits consulting group. \u201cThe $240,000 number captures the Part B premium for physician services, Part D for prescription drugs. Then there are deductibles and coinsurance, and benefits that are not covered like vision exams, hearing aids.\u201d\nAnother study, this one from Nationwide Financial, found that people who were near retirement routinely and wildly overestimated the percentage of health care costs covered by Medicare. It covers only 51 percent of health care services, according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute.\nRobert L. Reynolds, president and chief executive of Putnam Investments, which has its own study, bluntly summed up the situation at a recent news briefing. \u201cIt makes no sense at all to talk about retirement savings or lifetime replacement income without talking about health care expenses,\u201d he said.\nA calculator developed by Putnam, called the Lifetime Income Replacement Tool, shows people not only how much they have saved but also how much they need to save depending on their health (cigarette smokers with diabetes need to save the least because their life expectancy is the shortest) and where they plan to retire (Louisiana is the cheapest, Alaska the most expensive) so they can live at their same income in retirement.\nMoving to cheaper and possibly warmer climates is something many retirees naturally do. But while someone may be willing to move to Florida to reduce state taxes and avoid the ice and snow of the north, most people have so little awareness about the costs of health care in retirement that those costs are probably not a driving factor.\nCarol and Richard Bechtel had worked in the San Jose, Calif., area, she for Stanford University and he at various technology companies. When it came time to retire in 2006, they put a lot of thought into where they wanted to live. They picked a community in Fairfield Glade, Tenn.\nCost of living was a factor. They were able to sell their home of 37 years in San Jose, pay cash for a house on a golf course, and still have money left over to put in their retirement account. Quality of life also mattered. By their account, the Bechtels are thoroughly enjoying their new community and friends. Mr. Bechtel found a hangar close to their home for his airplane, and they are closer to their son and three granddaughters in Wisconsin.\nBut when it came to knowing their health care expenses in retirement, they were pretty typical: they had to check on what the exact costs were. Their premiums, between Medicare, a supplementary policy through Stanford and a dental plan, will cost them $9,058.80 this year. That is a whopping 14 percent increase from the same policies in 2011. And that number does not include any out-of-pocket medical expenses, like co-payments or the costs of over-the-counter medications.\n\u201cHealth premiums are probably one of our biggest expenses,\u201d Mrs. Bechtel said.\nYet Mrs. Bechtel was not complaining. She said her Stanford-sponsored plan was excellent and it had given them freedom to choose the doctors they wanted, particularly for her husband, who had some health problems recently.\n\u201cOur premiums are small compared to what our bills would be,\u201d she said. \u201cIt really makes us realize how great my Stanford benefit is. It covers everything. I worry a little bit how Medicare may change.\u201d\nWhile most retirees pay for insurance that supplements what Medicare pays, how comprehensive and open each plan is varies. But the fear that they will not be able to choose the doctors or care they want drives some wealthier people to set up separate accounts for health costs.\nFaith Xenos, chief investment officer for Singer Xenos Wealth Management near Miami, said she counseled clients to set aside 5 percent of their annual budget for health-related costs and deductibles. (If they don\u2019t spend it, she tells clients to use the money to do something healthy.)\n\u201cLet\u2019s all acknowledge insurance doesn\u2019t cover everything,\u201d she said. \u201cWe have this idea from years back that once you get your Medicare or your retirement benefits package that everything is covered.\u201d That is not the case.\nShe added: \u201cEveryone wants the best drugs, and those might not be the ones your policy covers. They might cover a drug but that might not be the one you want.\u201d\nFor people wanting to retire before Medicare starts at 65, she advises buying a high-deductible plan and using a health savings account to cover some of the out-of-pocket expenses.\nThen there\u2019s the issue of long-term care insurance. Various studies estimate that the percentage of people who reach 65 and will need long-term care is 30 to 50 percent.\nA separate study done by Fidelity in 2008 put the cost of one year of care at $76,000 and said that 50 percent of couples retiring in 2008 would need at least one year of long-term care, and 20 percent would need up to five.\n\u201cThe question is, \u2018Are you going to pay for that out of your current assets or are you going to get a long-term care policy?\u2019 \u201d said John L. Hillis, president of Hillis Financial Services in San Jose, Calif. \u201cThese policies can be very expensive, and a lot of companies are getting out of the product because the insurance companies aren\u2019t making any money off of it.\u201d\nMr. Hillis speaks from experience: his stepmother lived to be 99 1/2 and ended her days in a nursing home. He said her health care expenses were about $10,000 a month. But even when he tells clients this story, few are inclined to buy the insurance.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really what\u2019s important to you,\u201d Mr. Hillis said. \u201cDo you want to protect a portion of that money or is it, \u2018I accumulated this money and part of it is to take care of me in my later years.\u2019 \u201d\nIn the case of the Bechtels, who are Mr. Hillis\u2019s clients, Mrs. Bechtel said they did not buy long-term care insurance because of the high cost. She plans to take care of her husband, who is 81 years old. She is 68.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know how difficult that will be,\u201d she said. \u201cI don\u2019t know what I\u2019ll do about me. I figured I won\u2019t worry about that yet.\u201d\nWhile the cost is certainly a factor in not buying long-term care insurance \u2014 Ms. Xenos said she had seen annual premiums for a couple as high as $20,000 \u2014 another reason is that many people simply don\u2019t want to think about something unpleasant: ending their days not in control of their own lives.\n\u201cThe people I see buying long-term care insurance are the children, for their parents,\u201d Ms. Xenos said. \u201cThey don\u2019t want to see their inheritance dissipated by long illnesses that are hard to pay for. And they say, \u2018I\u2019d rather deal with the annual premium than my parents dissipating their assets.\u2019 \u201d\nWith that kind of outlay, the children had better be sure that they are the beneficiaries \u2014 and that their parents don\u2019t spend all the money on themselves.\nThis entry was posted in Executive Benefits, Retirement, Retirement Plans and tagged retirement calculator, retirement planning.

        "raw_content": "I\u2019ve finished this book this week. I\u2019m in a historical period again and next week we are discussing Holocaust for one of my classes so it is kinda fitting to have one of these periods right now.\nIn the spring of 1942 five German students and one professor at the University in M\u00fcnich decides that something has to be done to stand up to Hitler and his regime. They start to produce resistance pamphlets and spread them around in different German towns. In the pamphlets, they write about freedom and how Hitler\u2019s regime is destroying Germany. They want this to end, they want a change in their everyday lives, and they know that Germany is facing defeat in the war. Sophie School, her brother Hans Scholl and Christopher Probst stood up to the regime and got punished for it, but they had planted a seed. A seed that would grow and shed hope for the German public who did not believe in Hitler and his companions.\nI have never read a book like this. In all my years reading books about WW2 I\u2019ve never found a book that speaks from a native, not-Hitler-supporting point of view. Maybe I haven\u2019t looked close enough, but this book was given to me as a present a few years ago. The White Rose was an incredible organization that didn\u2019t want to stay silent. Several of the members were medical students and worked as medics in military units, a way to serve the military service they had to do. Most of them were sent to the Eastern Front and saw what the war did to their troops. They saw the horrors that only a war can bring with them and that made them even more determined to speak up against the Nazi-regime. Sophie is seeing an officer that is fighting on the Eastern Front for the regime and during the book, we get to read her diary or some of her letters to Fritz as the officer\u2019s name is. Sophie is quite reflected for a girl of 21 years old. She is not afraid to speak her mind which makes her so important in The White Rose.\nThere is a movie called Sophie Scholl \u2013 The last days. As usual, I\u2019ve added in the trailer further down in the post so you can have a look. This movie isn\u2019t based on the book, but it is based on historical facts. It goes deeper into the interrogation process of The White Rose. The book isn\u2019t too specific in this area. The book and film compliment each other. The book takes it all from the beginning; how The White Rose was created, how the members came to be members and also how they manage to spread their pamphlets around to different German towns. The book also does background on the Nazi-regime according to different teen-societies like Hitlerjugend and Bund Deutscher M\u00e4del (The German girl\u2019s society) which I found very useful to understand the regime more as a political structure. The movie starts out just the day before Sophie and Hans is captured by the Gestapo and like I said it includes the interviews with interrogators at the Gestapo headquarters in more detail than the book. It is one thing to read the book and imagine what the courtroom could have looked like and how The White Rose might have felt. I think it is impossible for me who live in the 21st century to even imagine it, but it helps to see it portrayed on screen. I think the actors did a marvellous job! The book and movie are really recommended together!\nSophie Scholl: The Final Days: Sophie Scholl: The Final Days \u2013 Trailer\nTheme: Bravery, WW2, Nazi-Germany, resistance\nForrige innlegg Calendar Girl 7: July \u2013 Audrey Carlan\nNeste innlegg Calendar Girl 8: August \u2013 Audrey Carlan",

Reuters/File Photo\nRetired South Korean farmer Hwang Rae-ha would love to see his mother again, but nearly 70 years after he last set eyes on her, he says he would settle for a photograph.\n\u201cToo much time has passed by, and it is over now,\u201d he told Reuters, standing near his home within sight of the North Korean border. \u201cI don\u2019t think she is alive.\u201d\nDuring the Korean War, which raged up and down the peninsula for three years, Hwang\u2019s family fled here to Gyodong Island, in what is now South Korea.\nBut his mother returned to their home in the North to prepare for a hoped for peace and was caught on the northern side of the heavily fortified border that divided the two Koreas after the 1953 armistice.\nHwang, now 77, stayed on Gyodong Island, even building a home within sight of North Korea, hoping one day his mother would return.\nSo far, there has only been silence.\nWith tensions on the Korean peninsula easing, North and South Korea plan to revive the cross-border family reunions that were halted three years ago as concerns over Pyongyang\u2019s nuclear and missile programs mounted.\nMore than 57,000 South Korean survivors are registered with the South Korean government, hoping for a shot at a brief meeting with loved ones.\nJust 93 South Koreans and 88 North Koreans have been selected for a new round of reunions that will begin on August 20 at a resort in North Korea\u2019s Mt Kumgang, a popular tourist region.\n\u201cI still cry whenever I talk about my family, I will probably cry again once I see them,\u201d said 82-year-old Bae Soon-hui, who was picked to meet her sisters for the first time since the war. \u201cI was utterly in shock after hearing that I was selected.\u201d\nAging survivors\nHwang, the retired farmer, was not one of the few picked for this new round of meetings.\n\u201cWhen can we meet our loved ones?\u201d he asked. \u201cAfter all of us are dead? 100 people per each event is just meaningless. There are 50,000 people waiting all over the country.\u201d\nHis question is not entirely rhetorical.\nSince 1988, 132,484 South Koreans have added their names to a government registry, hoping to reunite with their families.\nBut survivors of the war are aging rapidly, and 75,425 people on that list have already died, the vast majority without ever having seen their relatives again.\nIn a decade, most of the survivors - already in their 80s or 90s - will have died, said Cheong Seong-chang, Vice President of Research Planning at Seoul\u2019s Sejong Institute.\n\u201cThat is why the state-run reunion program is a matter of urgency, an extremely pressing matter,\u201d he said.\nPark Kyung-sun, 81, who lives in Goyang city near the North Korean border, didn\u2019t want to wait on the government.\nDuring a period of closer relations in the 2000s she unsuccessfully searched for her family during three tightly controlled tours in North Korea, once glimpsing her old home briefly from the window of a tour bus.\n\u201cAll I wanted was to tell my mom how I lived, but she is dead now,\u201d Park said. \u201cI miss my brothers. It\u2019s so hurtful leaving them behind.\u201d\nA lifetime of trauma\nFor many survivors the reunions offer the first details of their family\u2019s fate following the war that left more than 1.2 million dead.\n\u201cI will probably ask them how they have been, and when mother died,\u201d Bae said of her sisters. \u201cThat\u2019s what I want to know.\u201d\nSouth and North Korea first agreed to hold reunions after a historic inter-Korea summit in 2000. The reunions were held every year until 2015.\nOver that period, 2,046 people were picked by a computer which prioritizes them on factors including their age and family background, Reuters reported.\nOthers are selected when their relatives in the North request a meeting.\n\u201cI could not believe it at first, I thought I was being scammed,\u201d said Kim Hyun-sook, 91, describing her shock when her daughter and granddaughter in North Korea asked to meet her in 2015.\nMany of those selected, however, say being torn away after seeing their relatives for only a few hours under the watchful eye of North Korean guards is a traumatic experience.\n\u201cWhen the time was up, I let go of my daughter\u2019s hand, and went to the bus,\u201d Kim said. \u201cThe moment I sat down, I could not speak.\u201d\nKim said she wants to see her family again before she dies, but with North Korea still largely cut off from the rest of the world and those who have already had reunions ruled out of the selection process, that seems increasingly unlikely.\n\u201cShe is alive, and I can\u2019t see her anymore for the rest of my life, can you even imagine that?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "55+ Lifestyle is like going back to Camp\nWhen my wife informed (told) me that we were moving to a 55+ community I wasn\u2019t sure if I was going there to live or to die. I knew nothing about 55+ communities.\nI\u2019ve now lived in the 55+ community of Villaggio for the past 12 years. Villaggio is an Active Adult Community in Palm Beach County Florida. Many of us refer to it as Camp Villaggio. As it turns out, I absolutely love it. I\u2019ve developed a passion for sharing about the lifestyle of living in a 55+ community. Almost all of my blogs are about this subject. These communities are also known as Active Adult Communities or 55 plus communities.\nThere is no other lifestyle like there is in a 55+ community. It\u2019s an exciting lifestyle for those in their 50\u2019s and well into their 80\u2019s or more. Living in an Active Adult Community is like going back to camp again. You can think of 55+ living as resort style living which makes you feel like you are on vacation all the time.\nFor those who have come of age and are ready for a lifestyle change, Active Adult Communities allow you to enjoy new experiences, new scenery, new activities where most of your neighbors are probably at the same stage of life as you.\nThey\u2019re called \u201cActive\u201d Adult Communities for a reason. The club house is generally the hub of organized social activities. Everything is right there. Most (not all) Active Adult Community amenities include:\nSocial Hall \u2013 Grand Ballroom with Stage\nYou can also join any of the many clubs and special interest groups. And if there\u2019s not one to suit your fancy, you can start one of your own.\nMany Social Activities will give you the opportunity to meet new friends of similar ages and interests and offer an immediate sense of belonging. Most communities are gated and most have security patrols, which offers protection and a feeling of security.\nPalm Beach County has more than seventy Active Adult Communities that offer Active Adult Lifestyles. The following link provides Delray Beach Homes for Sale, Boynton Beach Homes for Sale, Boca Raton Homes for Sale, and Lake Worth. Here is a link to more than 40 Different Active Adult Communities including ALL of the 9 Valencia Series by GL Homes.",

        "raw_content": "As a little boy, I used to love playing with Lego. Building houses, ships and cars with Lego was one of my favourite hobbies. And when the time came to move onto Technic, I did so gratefully. My young mind aching to be challenged in greater ways. But anybody who is familiar with Lego or Technic, or building anything for that matter will know that once you\u2019ve reconstructed the same thing once or twice. You get better at it.\nYou find room for improvement, you find pieces that may be superfluous, think of better ways to build something and think of more elegant solutions. I remember being very firmly told by my friend Alexandre, a senior designer at Honda, who also happened to be a world-class trumpet player.\nBefore creating. Learn!\nLearn from what exists. Learn what works. And learn what doesn\u2019t.\nIn essence, he told me to build on and respect existing practices and structures in car design before going off on a limb trying to reinvent the wheel with flights of fancy.\nThe difference between student and professional work and good advice.\nI started to think of Alexandres advice recently when I seen the new Windows 8 Operating System. Boy is it radical. It\u2019s fresh and a huge step forward for Microsoft. It has the impetuosity and care free abandon of youthful thinking.\nBut you see, building a computer operating system is like building anything. It\u2019s only by building, testing, constructing, re-constructing, doing, ending and starting again that a great system evolves. You have to be able to dig deep into the detail first before proposing structural changes.\nTrust me with an object as heavily used as an operating system, form is definitely a consequence of function. No matter how smart the interface is. Nothing will dull the novelty quicker than something that doesn\u2019t work properly.\nApple have got this right brilliantly recently with the vast number of OS iterations that both work and function beautifully. The incremental and iterative process used by Apple means that their operating system just works and the fact that it works beautifully enhances the perception that it is beautiful.\nI cannot tell you how thrilled I am to see Microsoft do something as Bold as Windows 8. This is a company that has thrown off the shackles of conservatism and embraced radicalism. One could even say it has \u2018out-appled\u2019 Apple. I love the strength of the concept, the fact that one Operating system can cross several platforms. And I do rather like the minimal graphic style. The strength of its boldness, has even begun to ask questions about Apple and their \u2018skeumorphic\u2019 approach. So much so that their top dog in design \u2013 Sir Jonathan Ive has been drafted in to oversee the development of their new OS.\nVisually, I must say that Windows 8 is a huge step forward over 7. It is a sensible evolution of the Microsoft Vision 2019 with the breaking down of tasks/applications into mini modules, centred on the screen. This is obviously common throughout traditional desktops, tablets and mobile devices.\nDespite the radical appearance, you are still reminded that this is Microsoft and not Apple. As a car designer, I remember Alfa Romeo investing a lot of time and effort to mimic the pleasant thud when you close a car door. Companies like Mercedes and Audi had become lauded for their quality and the door thud was symbolic of their success. Despite their best efforts, Alfa Romeo was never quite able to replicate the same feeling of quality. Kind of get the same impression here.\nMicrosoft should be praised for their boldness but their execution, in design, isn\u2019t quite on the same level as Apple. The icons for example are a touch on the small side proportionally and more than that they lack that attention to detail that is required. Minimalism is a wonderful aesthetic direction, particularly when executed well. However, what many forget is that reducing an object (or part of an interface in this example) to its most core components means that every element has to have the right depth and attention to detail in its own right.\nMicrosoft and aesthetics is a bit like Alfa Romeo and quality. With the best will in the world, it\u2019s never quite there. The new Microsoft logo is also testament to this. However, without being too harsh to Microsoft; this is the kind of Operating System Apple should be building and I believe that their rivals in Silicon Valley will be incredibly jealous that their clothes have been stolen by their competitors. Conceptually, it\u2019s quite a bit ahead of the game.\nHowever, before getting carried away with Windows 8. I must return to the original point and heed this warning. The beauty and conceptual integrity of the Microsoft interface will only work commercially if it performs and functions well. It\u2019s what made Windows 95 so popular in the first place.\nAccording to one of my great design heroes Richard Seymour\u2026\n\u201cWe don\u2019t see beauty in objects as they are but as we are.\u201d\nEverything is beautiful to different people in different ways. The most beautiful objects in anybody\u2019s eyes are those that work well, that enhance our lives. As many of you know I never shut up about how much I love my BlackBerry.\nBecause it allows me to type on the move; to blog, to send e-mails. All effortlessly so!\nIt\u2019s why I hated the I-phone I had for three months. Because I just couldn\u2019t do that.\nYou won\u2019t find too many people in love with their operating systems but subconsciously people feel the exact same way.\nIf Microsoft 8\u2019s cool new concept and layout allows users to interact with their word processors, e-mail, music, Facebook etc with greater ease, then boy do they have a product.\nOtherwise, its novelty will quickly wear off and people will continue to flock to Apple.\nBuilding a Premium Brand\nWell, it\u2019s been a while but I thought it was time to start sharing some of my thoughts with you once again. I don\u2019t know how many of you seen the Apprentice the other evening. It had, what is usually one of my favourite challenges, to build a luxury brand. Every year, it is tackled with varying levels of success from the candidates. I have a keen interest in this challenge as my company, the loft, is primarily about building premium brand identities.\nThe one thing that has to be remembered when building a premium brand is that you are not just selling any old product or service to anyone. You are asking the customer to make an emotionally led purchase. One that should resonate with the customer to make them wish to pay just that little bit extra. The funny thing is that this emotion can be absolutely anything and may have nothing to do with luxury. Some of the best examples I have seen recently involve personal fitness. Tough Mudders or Fight Camp are both experiences for the individual where you are going to put yourself through a living hell. A pool of blood, sweat and tears. And guess what, you are going to pay extra for that privilege. It would seem insane to some, but to the right person, it makes perfect sense. The reason certain people will pay extra is because they aren\u2019t buying any sort of training programme, they are buying an experience, the ultimate badge of honour, the knowledge that there are fewer tougher experiences around.\nWhat Fight Camp (in particular) does is massively play up to the image of the \u2018ultimate training experience\u2019 in both the experience and the way it is promoted. This is why they have such a strong identity and their product so memorable. It does make me chuckle how four trainers from Glasgow on a limited budget have made a better job of building a strong brand identity than some of the top multi-nationals with much larger budgets but maybe this comparison is an unfair one.\nGoing back to the Apprentice, it\u2019s a shame Nick, who I am sure gets this, stood by on the sidelines and watched while Adam chucked everything but the kitchen sink into his shop concept. Anything and everything for anybody and everyone are not what premium brands are about. Premium brands are much more exclusive. The hot-chocolate idea was good, very good and with some clever variations would have been quite enough. You can have as many products as you like but as long as the brand has a core feeling, it will always be considered premium.\nMessage and consistency are what we are always preaching at the loft. Without these, there is a danger of confusion and a muddled identity. In an increasingly globalised and digital world, where it is a survival of the fittest, the only means of survival for Western Companies is to start thinking premium.\nWhere do we fit in at the loft? Well that special element exists in almost every company. Sometimes it\u2019s quite well hidden. But we know how to find it and once we do, there is nobody better to help you build that compelling case to your audience. Be it in your digital presence or in print.\nHow do we do that? Well that\u2019s another story for another time\u2026\nIn the meantime, my money is on Ricky for tonight.\nWhy i-Loved Steve Jobs\nPosted by benbordone\t/ Comment\nWell it\u2019s not very often that you feel the loss of somebody that you felt was truly great but Steve Jobs for me was that person. I loved his passion, I loved his vision and I loved his optimism for a better future. Steve jobs\u2019 work has touched many peoples\u2019 lives in so many ways. i-mac, i-phone, i-pad. In the last couple of hours he has received many tributes. Marks of respect from every side of the globe. From the millions of Apple consumers to people such as President Obama. He has been praised for his technological achievements, his entrepreneurial achievements and now I want to pay tribute to Steve Jobs for everything he has done for my profession, design.\nGrowing up as a designer, everything you are ever taught at school or University about design in some way has been mastered by Steve Jobs. With Apple as his canvas, he has spent the last 30 years revolutionising our field. Want to know about graphics and packaging?

All of them, beautifully balanced, beautifully finished and beautifully weighted. Want to know about concepts? Simply look at what Apple did to the music industry, they basically re-invented it! With i-tunes and the i-pod, they put the consumer back at the heart of the music industry and changed the way we all listen to music forever. Want to know about powerful branding? Apple is the strongest brand in the world, period. I don\u2019t care what any survey says about IBM or Mercedes. Apple is light years ahead of everybody in building a powerful consistent brand. They don\u2019t have to discount their products; they don\u2019t have to really advertise their products. Everybody knows instinctively what Apple is, what they\u2019re about and why they want to pay more to have one. Apple could make a car, a washing machine or even a plane and people would want one.\nAnd finally, want to know how to make money out of design? Apple is the most valuable technology company in the world. And it is for this that I want to eternally thank Steve Jobs. For giving design real teeth at the board level and making great products as a priority. See great products and great companies are not borne out of dogma or a desire to mercilessly make money; they are borne out of one\u2019s passion for a better future. Making money is simply the consequence when you learn how to do it really well. Most of the time what a creative will produce is the result of passion, a moment of inspiration. And traditionally it is the first thing to be killed in the boardroom. Well Apple changed all of that, be it the first graphical user interface, be it the transparent cover on the first i-mac or even the first proper touch-screen phone. Most of those ideas would have been killed off early in most boardrooms but Steve Jobs and Apple were different. He said yes when most people say no. He stuck to HIS beliefs in making perfect products when many before him would have said no for an easier life. It remains incredibly difficult to innovate and innovate well. Most cowardly hide behind the shelter of what has gone before, but Steve Jobs was a leader. And most importantly he proved that great design is profitable. Steve Jobs showed the true value of great design and how it is just as applicable to the design of a button as it is to the way you actually design the business itself.\nApple really did begin to resemble their owner. And no he was not perfect. He was prickly at times and a tad aloof but ultimately he was a genius. The company he created, although massive, does have a heartbeat. Even Apple\u2019s website tribute to the great man is beautifully designed. Steve Jobs should be thanked for instilling that ability into his team and for showing the world the power of great design. We talk a lot about \u2018design with soul\u2019 here at the loft and sometimes its a hard concept to define. But I can think of no better embodiment of that message than Steve Jobs.\nRest in peace Steve Jobs and thank you\u2026\nAfter a great build up, this was Future Forward. Our event for Social Media Week Glasgow on Tuesday evening. We would be building brands for the future, using innovative forms of social media too. It was a full day event. Instead of blogging about the event, we thought we would design this poster charting the day\u2019s progress from pre-event videos to the finalised design work. As can be seen, it was a very, very busy day. We hope you enjoy\u2026\nMilan, taking style one step further\nOne of Europe\u2019s design capitals. I must say it was so exciting to return to a city where I used to live. Milan lives and breathes design, everything from fashion to architecture to interior/product design. It was also the week after the famous Salone del Mobile, so the city was still in a particular ebullient mood.\nMen\u2019s corporate Style\u2026\nOne of the things I like most about Milan is the Milanese men\u2019s fashion. In terms of the corporate style, they are so adventurous in their mixing of accessories with traditional corporate clothing and somehow or other, they pull it off. The blazer and handkerchief mixed with smart jeans and jumper. The corporate suit mixed with trainers giving a utility-corporate look and a range of things you don\u2019t see so often here in the UK, such as experimentations of suits in a wider range of colours, skinny ties, cravats, watches worn over the shirt. All very cool and an impressive extension to the regulated corporate look.\nCutting Edge Product Design\nIt is probably in product design where Milan\u2019s reputation is strongest. There are a host of shops, in Milan\u2019s San Babila area, selling the most creative and elegant products around. Cassina, B&B Italia, Artemide, etc\u2026 These shops sell a host of objects, that its safe to say you wouldnt find in Ikea. One of the more interesting pieces was the UK\u2019s very own Ross Lovegrove\u2019s stunning \u2018Cosmic Leaf\u2019 lights. We first set sight on these wonderful objects in the new IDEA hotel in Milan. A very smart and reasonably inexpensive fashion hotel based next to the Central Station. The lights are made of a perforated metal with a stunning texture. it is the combination of the texture and biological form that sets them apart from more traditional lighting solutions.\nDesign Gone Mad!!\nOne thing we did see in the midst of Milan\u2019s Montenapoleone area was one of the stars of Milan\u2019s design week itself. The Z-chair by renown Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid. Zaha Hadid has undoubtedly been one of the designers of the decade, spearheading a very distinctive \u2018deconstructive\u2019 style. This modern style is embodied in things like the stunning Abu Dhabi \u2018Performing Arts Centre\u2019 as well as the impressive \u2018Acquatics Centre\u2019 for London 1012. She has the strongest of signature styles which has, in the last decade, found its way into product design.\nHer products all use the exact same aesthetics as the buildings but make greater use of natural forms. This is rare for product designers who tend to stick within a more geometric design language. The Z chair\u2019s sculpted appearance is very smart, very strong and the use of stainless steel lends the design even greater impact.\nIt costs \u00a3200,000. I thought this ridiculous, there may only be 24 pieces being produced but this chair, with very limited functionality is not worth this price. it shows that we are truly in the age of the celebrity designer where Zaha Hadid\u2019s name is now up there with Mark Newson and Phillipe Starque. Yes, the design is impressive but people are not paying for this, they are paying for the \u2018Zaha Hadid\u2019 name. The object will not be used as a seat but as something for the rich to show off to their friends. What I find a little insulting is that design of this quality lives in the sketchbooks of hundreds of young unknown designers who could not dream of asking for such a price. I don\u2019t blame Zaha Hadid or anybody in particular I just think its mad.\nStunning Shop Displays\nFinally, one of the things that I have always liked about the Duomo area of Milan is that all of the shops have such impressive window displays. They are like works of arts in their own right. We are getting better in Britain, but we still have some to go to beat the Milanese. Elaborate fashion displays complimented with lifestyle products, posters or even theatre props. Some are truly spectacular, and a great way of communicating the brand\u2019s raison d\u2019etre. My favourite this year was Replay Jeans who had basically installed a full jungle into the front of their store. With plants growing (to be honest, they looked more like they we\u2019re dying) in suspended perspex balls, wild leaves and shoots of bamboo all complementing the utility of their jeans. Absolutely brilliant and typical of Milan\u2019s attitude in taking style one step further.\nBenedetto Bordone is a designer at the loft | web design Glasgow\n< < < back to comments\nVodafone Freebees!!\nJust a quick post here. I cannot think of anything more mundane to sell than mobile phone tariffs. Luckily Vodafone have used one of the oldest tricks in the book to great effect. Create a loveable character that cannot help but get you intrigued about what they\u2019re selling. Vodafone\u2019s \u2018Freebees\u2019 is a nice modern interpretation of character driven marketing. The kind that used to be used with great effect, such as the Tetley Tea Folk. Who as it happens are making a return. How many of us would remember Frosties the cereal without Tony the Tiger? Nice to see Vodafone adding a bit of entertainment which can at times be a very focused segment.\n\u201cA brand is not a logo. A brand is not a slogan. A brand is not an identity, corporate or otherwise. A brand is not a symbol or a shape. It\u2019s not mail shots, mission statements or mantras. It\u2019s not colours, credos or calling cards. A brand is the total sensory experience a customer has with your company and its product or service.\u201d\nNow when most clients approach the Loft for \u2018branding,\u2019 we are usually asked to design a logo full stop. Now a memorable logo is a good starting point to introduce your brand. However, in creating a strong brand identity \u2013 it is barely scratching the surface. Unfortunately, for most of our clients, small and large, this is where their consideration of branding ends.\nAlthough, larger companies are also guilty of this, this post is written squarely for all those with smaller businesses. Unfortunately, during the recession, the ones that have suffered most have been the smaller businesses who have seen their profits squeezed as their customers have mercifully voted with their feet. The most common scenario I am sure that most small business owners will be aware of is the following. If you have ever quoted for work (any kind of work?) and had your potential client say \u2018Well such and such can do it for this price?\u2019 Caring not, whether the product you offer is different, far more labour intensive or you are already offering an exceptional deal that severely eats into your profit margin. Simply expecting you to drop your price because Jimmy down the road can do it 20% cheaper. Such is the nature of the current climate, this situation is not rare.\nNow this is not the fault of the potential client, they are absolutely within their rights to bargain for the best deal possible. Furthermore, with more and more people using the internet to shop around, they feel entitled to ask you for the best deal. However ask yourself this, why do we pay more than two pounds for a cafe latte from our local Starbucks? A cafe latte consists of steamed milk and coffee. The actual value of the coffee is probably around 30pence. How many people do you think ask Starbucks to do it for \u00a31.50 because the shop round the corner does it for that price? Exactly, you would be laughed out of store.\nNow I am not saying that people are asking the local chip shops for 20% off their fish suppers, they don\u2019t. They do something that is even worst, they just stop going. So how does Starbucks obtain such a position of strength compared to the smaller businesses? Where it would seem frankly absurd for you the hard-pressed consumer, in these tough times, to ask for a small discount from a company that makes close to a billion dollar profit annually. Really, when you think about it, it\u2019s crazy that we don\u2019t.\nFurthermore, how can Starbucks make such great margins on every coffee, yet remain so popular?\nWell, you can be rest assured that a fair percentage of the two pounds you pay for your latte is pure profit. They really could discount if they wanted too, give the customer a better deal, but they don\u2019t. So why, even though they are completely ripping us off (me included,) do they not feel compelled to sell their coffee at a cheaper price? After much debate, Starbucks would concede the reason you are paying so much for your latte is the \u2018Starbucks Experience.\u2019 They would be asbolutely right, it is the brand experience. And, in terms of their branding, it has nothing to do with their logo. And the reason we have no problem squeezing the local businesses within an inch of their lives and not the corporate superpowers? Is that most small businesses pay very little attention to their \u2018brand experience.\u2019\nThis is incredibly foolish on their part as, uncomplainingly, many people will pay extra for that brand experience. But what is the brand experience and how can you use it to enhance your business? Well, the good news is that anybody can create a strong brand. You neither have to be big nor have a massive marketing budget. Size is unimportant, emotions are king. The brands that prosper actually mean something to their audience. They make an emotional connection that ingrain themselves into people\u2019s minds. Once a brand means something to somebody, the price of that service becomes more valuable and a premium rate becomes more justifiable.\nUnless your company actually means something to people, it will only ever be a commodity, which means that people will only justify it by the lowest common denominator. Price! Once your company has some emotional value, it becomes a brand. Something respected and something people will pay a premium for. Furthermore, once a brand is at the forefront of people\u2019s minds, as long as they are consistent, they are likely to return to this brand time and time again. Regardless of price, strong brands that are instantly definable are in the fast-lane to our senses, and this makes for excellent business, particularly for smaller companies. Many of us tend to stick to what we are familiar with, particularly in choosing good tradesman, suppliers or stockists, even if they are a litle more expensive.\nIndeed, good brands are built on people\u2019s perceptions. \u201cProducts are made in the factory, but brands are created in the mind.\u201d For any person who owns a small company, it is important to know what you stand for. What\u2019s the narrative? The rest is in the power of communication and how you accentuate the story. Basically what you choose to show your audience. For more established customers who have a familiarity with your service, they will already have formed an impression of your company based on the type of service you provided, but even that can be measured and controlled, just to remind people that you are the fastest printers in the land or the only tradesman who comes out at weekends. It is important that the seed is planted well and truly in your customer\u2019s heads about what you do and where you stand.\nNow in targeting new consumers, you will only really have two ways to make a connection. The quality of your business card, website, promotional material and the impression you give off yourself. Now, I am not going to lie, a lot of your clients will be put off by a sub-standard website/business card. If you want to charge for a premium service, you cannot then give out a business card that suggests otherwise or display a poor website.\nTo most people, these will be the only bases with which they ever define your brand, so it is important that they stand out and are of good (if possible, exceptional) quality. So the very basics of branding are important. But so is making full use of the senses.\nSee, hear, touch, taste and smell. Not everybody will be able to extend to the full sensory range, but if you have a product with strong tactile qualities or interesting scents or unique tastes. Use all of them, as it will undoubtedly create a more memorable vibe. When I think of Starbucks, I don\u2019t necessarily think of the coffee, I think of the shop, or the pastries, the environment as a whole. A great brand experience is defined by subtle control of each of the senses. However, even more important in building a great brand in this respect are the people who define your business. People buy off people, simple as that.\nFor the majority of people representing their businesses, looking and sounding like your brands are the only two controllable factors. So do you actually look like your brand? Does what you wear chime with what your brand wants to say? Does each of the individual facets of your appearance say what your brand wants it to say? Every aspect from belts, shoes and bags are a way of expressing your brand. Simply wearing expensive stuff won\u2019t necessarily work. If your brand\u2019s young and funky- be young and funky. If your brand is super corporate, then be corporate. If your brand is built on good solid workmanlike values, then dress accordingly. There is no substitute for the truth. Furthermore, body language is just as important as dress. With regards with what you say. Know your narrative; be able to portray how this sets you apart from your competitors. Have anecdotes and tales that support your story. Think of stuff that will make a connection with who you are speaking too.\nAnd finally, in building that strong brand, consistency is key. Whatever you\u2019re communicating, make sure you\u2019re communicating it consistently so the brand identity doesn\u2019t get muddled. Be it face to face interaction, or brochures or websites. These are just links that stand between your brand and your audience. However, each of the links is important; any inconsistencies will damage the brand in people\u2019s minds. The bigger your business, the more links there are to be controlled- furniture, staff, uniforms, ad campaigns etc. But to build a strong brand, you must have something worth saying in the first place. Storytelling has never been more important. Clever marketing is no substitute for the truth; it is a subtle suggesting of it. It is there to remind an audience of why you are valuable not to deceive them. Marketing for the sake of marketing is unlikely to enhance the value of your brand but having a rich story that informs, entertains and inspires your audience will.\nIt\u2019s the difference between having your company respected like a strong brand, and not treated like a worthless commodity.\nA victory for design over dogma!\nContrary to most designers. I am not a Mac user. I own a Blackberry and not an I-Phone. I have an HP Desktop and Sony Laptop, not an I-Mac or I-Book. Apple\u2019s products are very impressive, but they have just never been my thing. Personally, I feel my first generation BB Bold may not be as good a phone as the I-Phone 4, of that there is no question, but is an infinitely more stylish and interesting object to own. And I consider the I-Book to be criminally over-priced for a laptop. A premium of 20-30% for a better laptop is understandable. But a doubling of the price to own a computer that is technically no better than its competition and aesthetically only marginally better, is something I would never contemplate. Indeed, the only Apple product I have owned in the last ten years has been the first generation \u2018Shuffle\u2019 which accompanies me to this day. So I am not exactly an Apple aficionado\nIn addition to what is written above, I find the whole \u2018Apple being a creative person\u2019s brand\u2019 tiresome. Yes they are in one way. However, the majority of creative people prize individuality ahead of being part of a \u2018creative clique.\u2019 The more Apple products become the mainstream, the less distinctive they become. Furthermore, Apple are becoming more and more apolitical in their attempts to fight their corner. Attacks on Adobe regarding Flash for the I-Pad smacks of arrogance and highly political posturing by Steve Jobs. Indeed, Apple\u2019s recent transformation from the anti-establishment brand to the all-conquering force, they now are, just makes them a whole lot less likeable. They remind me of the Kings of Leon in a way. Most of us who initially loved the Kings of Leon devoured the first couple of albums when their music was interesting are now aghast at the money making machine they have become. Finally, if truth be told, from an aesthetic point of view, their products are just not that special. From the I-Pad, to the I-Phone to the I-Pod to the I-Book. They are just boxes. Boxes with radiused edges. Indeed, most of the actual shapes could be modelled with primitive shapes on any 3D CAD programme. Beautifully finished boxes but boxes just the same. They are flattered by the lack of competition stylistically from the majority of their competitors. As I stated earlier, I am not an Apple aficionado, far from it. However, I do absolutely love the way the company has placed design at the heart of its strategy. Putting it at the forefront of the argument, highlighting its relevance. And above all, championing the incredible power that good, innovative design can have in a profit-driven world.\nOn May the 27th 2010, Apple overtook Microsoft as the biggest tech company on the planet. 10 years ago, it wasn\u2019t even a tenth of the size. It was a significant moment, and I would argue, a victory for design.\nI only found out recently that Steve Jobs is actually a designer, by-trade. Not an engineer nor a developer or even a professional entrepreneur as previously thought. But a designer. As a bi-product of his role, he is incredibly knowledgeable in all these fields but his first instincts are to think as a designer and his whole company is an embodiment to the power of design. It comes as no surprise that he is mad about the Beatles. The one music group, above all others, that has married creative genius with unsurpassed commercial triumph. The Beatles were passionate about their music, the creation, their songs. The thrill of the journey. First and foremost, they had an ambition to make great music. The success, wealth and monetary value of their creation was not at the forefront of Paul McCartney\u2019s mind when he wrote \u2018yesterday.\u2019 But by concentrating on writing the best song he possibly could on this and all other Beatles songs. He was consequently satisfying the long-term commercial ambitions of their music (whether this was sought after or not is unknown.) Steve Jobs and Apple\u2019s philosophy is identical, by making the most innovative and interesting products in their sector, they are also ensuring immediate and enduring commercial success. By weaving the values of innovation and style into the Apple DNA, they are ensuring that the Apple company succeeds in the long-term. Reminiscent of the Beatles and not some flash in the pan pop star.\nBut what does Apple do that makes their company so successful and leave its opponents so flatfooted? Principally, it is the whole company\u2019s attitude to design, creativity and innovation. From the top down. This is embodied in a number of ways.\nFirstly, they are ruled not by technology but by their own imaginations. Apple strive to make products that are better for their user, better to use, nicer to look at, more sophisticated etc. This fundamental paradigm sets them apart from the majority of their competitors who develop technologies and disparately try to wrap products around them. Apple\u2019s user-centric approach is to principally make a better product for the user and subsequently find or develop the appropriate technology to make that happen. This approach allows for an impressive list of innovations from transparent computer cases on the original I-Mac to the I-Tunes concept that revolutionised music to the Apps store to touch sensitive screens on the first I-Phone and on and on. Apple are consistently one step ahead of the game. The Apple \u2018Greatest Hits\u2019 catalogue is bigger than everybody else\u2019s, building huge brand credibility and value. The buzz with Apple products has endured a long time and it seems to be growing all the time.\nSecondly, I am sure they benchmark their rivals products, but they don\u2019t slavishly copy them. There will be instances where they have borrowed good features from their rivals, yet built them in cohesively with the rest of the product and only used it if necessary. The majority of the time they are being replicated not replicating. Indeed, it is almost embarrassing to see companies like RIM try to replicate the I-Phone touch-screen with the Storm or Sony mimic the keyboard layout of the I-book on the Vaio and especially Windows replicating so many features of the OS operating system such as the floating taskbar on Windows7. In fact Microsoft, its oldest rival, is a little like a rudderless ship at the moment, all over the place trying to keep up with Google in one respect and Apple in another. Taking me to another significant point of difference. Apple has limited itself to a small number of products. It has only competed in fields where it can. Unlike Microsoft, who by massive diversification, create multiple products badly. Microsoft should be mimicking Apple\u2019s approach in concentrating on what they do best. Not doing what they cant do and then lazily mimicking key product features from their competitors.\nThirdly, innovation. Most recite it, few actually do it. True foresight and innovation allow a company the opportunity to differentiate itself from its competitors. If done well, it can open up massive opportunities for growth and profit. In Apple\u2019s case, the I-Pod with I-Tunes basically stole the record company\u2019s industry from under its nose in the most brutal way possible. Record companies sold Compact Disk\u2019s. Apple, on the other hand revolutionised the music industry. They didn\u2019t give the consumer a CD but an easier way to buy/listen to music putting thousands of CD companies out of business in the meantime. By looking long term at a scenario and by redefining the context, Apple changed the music industry forever. They are now doing the same to the phone market. Indeed, I do genuinely believe that if Apple were ever to make a car that they could sink a good number of our major car companies who are renown for working back to front in the creation of cars. By innovating, and innovating properly, that is making products that are better not different just for the sake of it, but better. Apple has massively increased its business\u2019s profit. Indeed, the music industry example highlights the danger for companies that don\u2019t innovate. They are sitting ducks waiting to be picked off by more savvy competitors from other sectors such as Apple.\nFinally, style. In terms of discipline, visual coherence and finish. Apple\u2019s products are one step ahead of its competitors. As I stated earlier, in terms of style. I am not personally a massive fan of the geometric, clean cut and simple Apple aesthetic. Yet as a designer, you cannot fail to be impressed with the way it is executed. The most important part of our jobs from a stylistic sense is to communicate the truth. All artistic figures such as artists and poets obsess about the truth, how to find it, how to portray it well. As a designer, we must communicate the truth and do so effectively, with clarity and consistency. All of Apple\u2019s products achieve this very successfully. Although they are just boxes, their products are always beautifully finished with excellent materials and stunning attention to detail. Furthermore, the discipline to ensure cleanliness and simplicity with all their products is awe-inspiring. Apple have decided that in this age of \u2019information overload,\u2019 they\u2019ll strive to make very complicated products as minimal, uncluttered and simple as possible. This is their philosophy and this discipline extends to every individual product, their marketing, their website etc. All creating a strong and unequivocal message about what Apple is.\nIndeed Apple\u2019s dominance over its rivals in so many ways may make us consider how its rivals can properly compete in the short to long term. Basically, Microsoft, Samsung, Nokia, Sony, etc should copy not what Apple does but the way it does it. They should focus more closely on their own segments without diversifying all over the place to make a quick buck. Innovate and build products that are more desirable to the consumers and finally take advantage of Apple\u2019s new found position as the establishment brand. By designing more distinctive products, that are truer to the company\u2019s values, Apple\u2018s rivals can steal a march on Apple. Indeed it is an interesting paradox that the \u2018creative persons\u2019 brand by achieving such significant sales success may alienate the one group of people that has contributed most to its success. As the commercial world become more infatuated with its new products to the detriment of distinctiveness and individuality. The designers, journalists, photographers, writers etc may go elsewhere. Furthermore, clean cut minimalism may be Apple\u2019s way but it isn\u2019t the only way to design a product. Diluted me2 products just embarrass the status of respectable companies. I would love to see some products that experiment with more organic forms in their surface language or more technologically advanced sci-fi inspired computers. There are hundreds of alternatives to the beautifully finished metal box. But the company must have that universal vision and that can only be provided by the inspiration of a designer.\nAs It is design, that has been the biggest driver of Apple\u2019s success. Innovation and creativity are synonymous with the designer\u2019s brief but it has only been through empowering designers at the top level that the company has succeeded. The vision is the designer\u2019s one and its important as it is borne of a desire to make great products, not simply make money. Apple is a formidable force because every member of the company from the sales staff to the technicians to the engineers buy into the designer\u2019s vision. By focussing on making great products and not great profits, Apple are laughing all the way to the bank.\nHelping the designer to see clearly!\nEverything we do and experience as individuals directly and indirectly influences our decisions, our beliefs and our ideas. Every action, experience and decision helps form a part of what drives us, what motivates us, what excites us and inevitably forms our characters as human beings. However as designers, what is all important. Is our ability to see. Not look, but see! A designer\u2019s vision is their most important asset. Not their ability to draw, or communicate ( however these are very important attributes) It is the ability to see what the rest cannot. To anticipate what is coming. And to be able to understand why something looks right or not and why a product is successful. The winning designer is generally the one who can see the clearest and can act on their enhanced foresight. Now there is no correct way for a designer to form or inform their vision. They can throw themselves into one thing and spend their whole lives in tribute to one form of aesthetic, or a particular subject matter etc. Alternatively, they can constantly experiment and take pleasure and education in more obscure sources. Da Vinci felt he could not communicate the human form until he could properly understand every part of how it worked and functioned, it was his atomical studies that informed his sketches. Endowing him with the ability to communicate the human form in the most truthful way to him. It is this approach which is required by designers who don\u2019t simply want to recreate what has gone before. His study and enhanced knowledge of the human body allowed him to portray the human form in a unique and enduring manner. The character and wisdom of Da Vinci can be seen in his atomical studies and have lasted centuries.\nHowever, when a designer stops looking or studying their field, they are in trouble. It happens in every field. In music, the pop star that begins to live in a bubble tend to lose the initial appreciation of the beauty or angst of life that compelled them to make music of honesty and sincerity that helped them to grow in the first place. The kind of music that people want to hear. It is for this reason that the most genuine artistic expression occur early on in people\u2019s career, afterwards it is quite hard to escape the bubble. Bringing me to life drawing, I have been doing this for a number of years, however, I cannot think of any type of exercise that can help a designer more. In terms of understanding proportion, composition, tone, light and shade. It is among the most challenging subjects to communicate. Furthermore, the skills learned in life drawing are amongst the most difficult for a designer to obtain through normal means. It is like running on the treadmill and somebody turning the speed to 20 kmh. It is hard at first, but you adapt and improve at a much quicker rate than your average weekly jog! Life drawing is turning the treadmill to 20. The results, however, include an increasing ability to see the world in a more interesting/informed manner. To take pleasure in more obscure sources and communicate them in the design process. Basically to see what everybody else is missing. Creating more interesting design work in the process by opening up limitless avenues of creativity. Furthermore, once comfortable with the basics of proportion, composition, shade and so on. You can experiment, find ways to communicate it differently or see it differently. Amazingly important when you are in a creative field.\nThe designer should be the person, in a project standing, at the top of the mountain being able to see further than everybody while being fully aware what is at their feet. They must provide some form of vision if a product is to succeed. It is reassuring for a designer to know that they can have their heads in the clouds with some mind blowing piece of design work at their disposal, or be able to toe the commercial line and tone it down if needs be. But they must have that inspiration in the first place. The designer with their eyes closed is doomed to stagnation of design quality and will suffer. However, those that avoid the bubble, constantly embrace life, its subject matter and its evolution are likely to continue to create design of great creativity and quality.

        "title": "Florida voting rights victory spurs fights in Iowa, Kentucky \u2013 The Militant",
        "raw_content": "The successful fight to restore voting rights to more than a million former prisoners in Florida has spread to Iowa and Kentucky. Constitutional provisions in those two states continue to bar the right to vote to most people released after serving time on felony convictions, as had been the case in Florida before last November\u2019s overwhelming passage of Amendment 4.\nWhat these three states had in common was that only a successful appeal to the governor could win the right to vote.\nNow those convicted of felonies in Florida automatically regain their right to vote once they\u2019ve completed their sentence, including probation or parole and paying fines, except for those convicted of sex offenses or murder. That\u2019s a step forward toward eliminating all restrictions there and across the country.\n\u201cThe push to change the Iowa constitution is definitely getting attention because of Florida,\u201d Michelle Heinz, executive director of the Inside Out Reentry Community, told the Militant by phone from Iowa City Jan. 19. \u201cWe feel a little gassed up and want to get things moving.\u201d Inside Out helps former prisoners get jobs, housing and medical care.\nSome 52,000 people convicted of felonies are unable to vote in Iowa. Blacks are hardest hit by the undemocratic restrictions, with nearly one in 10 blocked from voting.\nThe Iowa Constitution says that \u201cno idiot, or insane person, or person convicted of any infamous crime, shall be entitled to the privilege of an elector\u201d unless the governor restores their right personally. The state Supreme Court has ruled that all felony convictions are \u201cinfamous\u201d crimes.\nIn 2005, then-Gov. Tom Vilsack issued an executive order automatically restoring those rights. By the end of 2010 some 115,000 former prisoners regained their right to vote.\nBut in January 2011, incoming Gov. Terry Branstad reversed the executive order. By the time he left office last year, he had restored the right to vote to only 206 people.\nUnlike in Florida, the only way a constitutional amendment can get on the ballot in Iowa is for the legislature to approve it two years in a row. After that it\u2019s put on the ballot for a popular vote.\nSince the victory in Florida, newly elected Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has said she plans to submit a bill to get things going.\n\u201cWe want the governor to issue an executive order like Vilsack did so people can get back their right to vote right away. And we don\u2019t want any types of felony convictions excluded,\u201d Heinz said. \u201cBut the only way to really guarantee these rights is to change the constitution.\u201d\nDoren Walker, 56, who was released from prison in December 2016 after serving more than 10 years on a felony charge, recently applied to get his rights back from the governor.\n\u201cIt\u2019s rough getting out of prison and at first getting my right to vote back was not a priority,\u201d he told the Militant from Kalona, Iowa. \u201cI\u2019ve been very lucky. I\u2019m driving a milk truck and the community I live in has a lot of Amish and Mennonites. They treat you how you are today and don\u2019t judge you for a mistake in the past.\u201d\nWalker volunteers with Inside Out. A staff member there convinced him to apply to get his rights restored. But the process is convoluted, Walker said. You have to fill out a form and pay $15 to get the state Department of Criminal Investigation to generate a report. The governor\u2019s office said it could take up to two years.\n\u201cI\u2019m like, why?\u201d Walker said. \u201cThey said the application has to go through a lot of departments and that\u2019s just how it works.\u201d\nWalker\u2019s story was featured on the front page of the Iowa City Press-Citizen. The next day, he was informed that his request had been approved. \u201cIdeally this will bring awareness so that the constitution is changed,\u201d he said.\nNearly one in 10 residents of Kentucky \u2014 including one in four African-Americans \u2014 are barred from voting because of felony convictions. In early January, the Fair Elections Center and the Kentucky Equal Justice Center joined a lawsuit by several ex-prisoners challenging the restrictions.\nIn November 2015 outgoing Gov. Steve Beshear issued an executive order automatically restoring voting rights to more than 100,000 ex-felons. But current Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin upon assuming office overturned the order. He says he has personally restored the right to more than 1,000 former prisoners who applied, but he opposes the lawsuit.\nThe Socialist Workers Party in Kentucky is one of the groups pushing to change the constitution there. \u201cMy party defends the right of all workers who\u2019ve been behind bars to vote. Our campaign calls for a fight to overturn this law,\u201d said Amy Husk, SWP candidate for Kentucky governor, in a statement released to the press Jan. 9.\n\u201cThe Socialist Workers Party campaigns for class solidarity between workers behind bars and those outside. Prisons and the capitalist rulers\u2019 whole criminal \u2018justice\u2019 system aren\u2019t set up to dispense justice, but to intimidate and keep working people in their place,\u201d she said.\n\u201cWinning voting rights for all former prisoners is part of the fight to unify the working class,\u201d Husk said, \u201cto bring us together as equals in the struggle to overturn capitalist oppression and exploitation.\u201d",

I really can't wait to share this episode with you. In it, you'll hear my panel discussion at the Latino2 conference that was held in Silicon Valley. It was an amazing experience.\nThe conference itself had about 150 people in attendance and had some major players in the tech world. There were a number of speakers, including social media guru, Brian Solis, and all of them were awesome. It was a huge reminder to me about the power of networking and getting to know people.\nFor those that don't know, the reason that I was invited to speak at the event in the first place was because of a friend of mine that I met through an in-person social media meetup. We ended up talking, and about a week later she asked if I would like to be on a panel. Without hesitation I agreed.\nNow, even though I was excited about the prospect, I was EXTREMELY nervous because I've never spoken in front of that many people before \u2013 let alone people of that caliber. I had butterflies, I was sweating, I needed to go to the boy's room every 30 minutes leading up to the talk (seriously). I really didn't feel like I had the expertise to add any value to the audience.\nThankfully, it went very well and I was able to share about outsourcing and podcasting \u2013 something that almost nobody else was doing. The experience brought so many great opportunities and relationships that it was well worth stepping out in faith and feeling the anxiety that comes with taking a risk.\nI hope you like the audio.

        "raw_content": "To: House or Senate Member or Staffer\nFrom: Dan Perrin, Seniors Center\nRe: Social Security\nSocial Security is considered by all Americans to be a nearly sacred promise made to elderly Americans who have built America into the nation it is today, and that it\u2019s a promise that will be kept.\nWe are proposing reforms that will not increase the retirement age, decrease benefits or increase taxes. However, the reforms we do propose we believe will lay the political foundation for greater Social Security reforms in the future.\nTo help keep the Social Security promise, the Senior Center wants to convert the inter-governmental debt, or IOUs that serve notice of what our seniors are due \u2013 to be real cash, not IOUs.\nThe Senior\u2019s Center believes that in an era of growing deficits, when the total unfunded liability of the United States government exceeds any reasonable ability to pay it; one additional measure of financial security for the Social Security Trust Fund security is needed, and that is real cash in an account, ready to pay our seniors, as opposed to merely non-cash pledges to pay.\nThe total monies the U.S. government has pledged in one form or another to pay is called the U.S. government\u2019s total unfunded liability. Some estimates put that total liability at between $117 trillion and $200 trillion, which many Americans believe is well beyond the ability to pay.\nFinancial crisis often hit individuals and nations with unexpected results, and the Seniors Center believes that when people pay their Social Security taxes, those taxes should be converted into U.S. Treasury bonds and put into the Social Security Trust Fund to pay Social Security, not placed in the general treasury where those Social Security taxes are immediately spent. This is what happens to Social Security taxes now, they are spent, not saved, and the U.S. Treasury, instead of putting cash into the Trust Fund, puts an IOU, a promise to pay the Trust Fund later.\nThe fact that most Americans believe there is an actual trust fund for Social Security with money in it, and not merely IOUs to be paid with debt or current taxes, is the main impediment to this \u201creal money in the Social Security Trust Fund\u201d reform. Therefore, the Seniors Center is committed to educating the American public.\nOnce the public knows what really is in the Social Security Trust Fund, we can have a debate about it.\nOur position on Social Security is clear, IOUs are not as safe as real cash or Treasury bills, and our seniors would be better served if our Social Security Trust Fund contained money, not IOUs.\nIf you told the average Brazilian that their public social security trust fund for their retirement was spent the minute they paid their Social Security, and that when they retired the government would either use taxes collected that year or borrow the money to pay their Social Security, they would look at you like you were loco.\nThe Seniors Center supports a re-introduction of Congressman Paul\u2019s H.R. 219, which changes the law so that instead of IOUs, the Social Security Trust Fund would hold money.\nOne of the reasons that most Americans do not know that only IOUs or inter-governmental debt is in the Social Security Trust Fund is that the Social Security Trust Fund IOUs and debt is not counted in the official calculations of the U.S. deficit. It is considered \u201coff the books\u201d debt \u2013 and to further add to the confusion, some members of Congress make public statements, which perpetuate the myth that there is no Social Security Trust Fund debt.\nTherefore, the Seniors Center also supports adding a new section to the bill that the IOUs in the Social Security Trust Fund should be counted as part of the official national debt. This will do more to educate the American public of the what really is in the Social Security Trust Fund, to begin the conversation with the average American about whether they think the current system needs to be reformed.\nHere is what Dr. Charles Krauthammer wrote in The Washington Post, which may explain this more elegantly:\n\u201cSenator Dick Durban, the Senate Democrats\u2019 No. 2, says Social Security is off the table because it \u2018does not add a penny to our deficit.\u2019\nThis is absurd. In 2012, Social Security adds $165 billion to the deficit. Democrats pretend that Social Security is covered through 2033 by its trust fund. Except that the trust fund is a fiction, a mere \u2018bookkeeping\u2019 device, as the Office of Management and Budget itself has written. The trust fund\u2019s IOUs \u2018do not consist of real economic assets that can be drawn down in the future to fund benefits.\u2019 Future benefits \u2018will have to be financed by raising taxes, borrowing from the public, or reducing benefits or other expenditures.\u2019\u201d[1] (emphasis added)\nThe Social Security Trust Fund is among the most resistant federal programs to change. The last legislative change to the Social Security system occurred 34 years ago, in 1980. Education of the average American is the only way to begin to reform Social Security.\nThe Senior\u2019s Center believes H.R. 219 represents a critical change to the Social Security Trust Fund, along with an additional section to count the Social Security Trust Fund IOUs as part of our national debt, so that we can educate the public about the real state of affairs of the Social Security Trust Fund, which will keep our promise to America\u2019s senior citizens.\nThe new section of the bill would simply state that any IOUs not yet converted to cash in the Social Security Trust Fund would be counted as part of the deficit of the U.S. government.\nOne other change we suggest to H.R. 219, after extensive discussions with Social Security experts, including an actuary who advises the U.S. Social Security Administration, is to very slowly replace the IOUs in the trust fund with real assets, say at 1 percent or 2 percent of the IOUs every year. The financial shock to the U.S. budget and financial system would be too great otherwise.\nBelow is the text of H.R. 219:\nH.R.219 \u2014 Social Security Preservation Act of 2011 (Introduced in House \u2013 IH)\nHR 219 IH\nTo amend title II of the Social Security Act to ensure the integrity of the Social Security trust funds by requiring the Managing Trustee to invest the annual surplus of such trust funds in marketable interest-bearing obligations of the United States and certificates of deposit in depository institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and to protect such trust funds from the public debt limit.\nMr. PAUL introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means\nThis Act may be cited as the `Social Security Preservation Act of 2011\u2032.\nSEC. 2. INVESTMENT OF THE FEDERAL OLD-AGE AND SURVIVORS INSURANCE TRUST FUND AND THE FEDERAL DISABILITY INSURANCE TRUST FUND.\n(a) In General- Section 201(d) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 401(d)) is amended\u2013\n(1) by inserting `(1)\u2019 after `(d)\u2019;\n(2) by striking `Such investments may be made only\u2019 and inserting the following: `Except as provided in paragraph (2), such investments may be made only\u2019;\n(3) by striking the last sentence; and\n`(2)(A) The Managing Trustee shall determine the annual surplus (as defined in subparagraph (B)) for each of the Trust Funds as of the end of each fiscal year.

        "raw_content": "January 3, 2012 Wallace FordBarack Obama, G.I. Bill, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich 1 Comment\nAs the New Year begins all of us note certain dates on the calendar \u2013 weddings, graduation dates, that very special vacation that you have been planning for years. There is one more date that we all need to remember \u2013 November 6th.\nIt is almost impossible to exaggerate the importance of the upcoming presidential election along with all the Congressional, state and local elections that will be taking place throughout the United States. The roaring surge of nihilism that is the Koch-funded Tea Party movement is poised to turn the United States into another country.\nInstead of a country where opportunity is a right, the right wing of the right wing seeks to turn opportunity into a privilege for the very few that can afford it. On the Planet Tea Party quality education, universal healthcare, decent housing and a better way of life belong to the few who have no interest, desire or obligation to help the many.\nTo those who believe that I am giving voice to overreaction I extend an invitation to consider the facts. The current Republican presidential contest features candidates who have unanimously swallowed Grover Norquist\u2019s poison pill call the no-tax pledge. Any president who begins consideration of this country\u2019s challenges with an absolute commitment not to raise taxes under any circumstances dooms not only the poor, the needy and the helpless.\nThe presidential implementation of the no-tax pledge will absolutely result in the evisceration of services that benefit more than 99% of the people of this country. From dredging yacht basins to food stamps to farm subsidies to college loans American men, women and children will feel the pain.\nThe Republican playbook has only two plays. One is that President Obama is a failure and must be replaced at all costs and clearly by anyone who has a pulse. The salvation of the automobile industry, the historic attempt to finally reform the financial services industry, the introduction of universal healthcare, the withdrawal of troops from the Bush-Cheney bloodbath in Iraq and the demolition of the Al Qaeda leadership including the death of Osama bin Laden are all conveniently ignored by the Party of No.\nThe (only) other play is to demonize \u201cbig government\u201d and to portray the federal government as the \u201cenemy\u201d. It is an odd and counterintuitive play since most members of the G.O.Tea Party define themselves as middle class. It is odd and counterintuitive since modern American history is quite clear in crediting the creation of the middle class to major federal programs.\nPerhaps someone should tap the fake-historian Newt Gingrich on the shoulder and ask him to remind his fellow political dwarfs that the G.I. Bill, the national high way program, federal student loan programs, the Small Business Administration, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Veterans Housing bill, the Civil Rights bill are all responsible for the existence of a true middle class in this country.\nIndeed, if it were not for the Rural Electrification Administration of the 1930\u2019s (another devious scheme of big government) most residents of the so-called red states might still be reading by kerosene lanterns.\nIt is pretty clear that all of the historic legislation referred to would not, and could not be passed by the current Congress due to the boulder-brained G.O.Tea Party zealots who would have us believe that the government that has provided the platform for such an advanced way of life is somehow wrong. Of course, their dirty little secret is that they simply do not wish to pay the bill for everyone to have access and opportunity and somehow believe that they can live in their gated communities, sending their children to private schools while working on guarded corporate \u201ccampuses\u201d while the rest of the country goes to hell in a hand basket.\nAside from the heartlessness that is the touchstone of this philosophy it is also pretty stupid. One would think that if they are not watching CNN the Tea Party zealots might see stories on Fox News that have shown unrest and turmoil in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Europe and Latin America \u2013 unrest and turmoil that arises when too many people feel that the deck is stacked and that there is no hope of opportunity.\nMitt Romney made his millions buying companies, selling off their assets and laying off their workers. It worked fine for him and his family.\nMitt Romney may not be the G.O.Tea Party nominee, but the Romney story is the narrative that is presented as the template for the new America.\nDon\u2019t forget November 6th!\n\u2192 Weekend Edition \u2013 January 6, 2012\n\u2190 The Circus Comes to Iowa\nOne thought on \u201cSave the Date!\u201d\nI agree. The hatred will destroy this country if it isn\u2019t defeated.",

        "raw_content": "Having an innovative idea is not enough to get your startup off the ground. In order to make your idea a reality, you have to have a great team of people working towards a common goal. Attracting the best talent to your business, however, is not an easy task. It gets even harder when you are starting out and have to compete for the top talent with companies that have bigger budgets and a more established reputations than you.\nLast year, over 589,000 startups were launched in the UK. How can a new company stand out when it comes to hiring? That\u2019s precisely where employer branding comes to the rescue. Employer branding is the future of talent acquisition. People are jaded by traditional jobs boards and advertising and want to feel in control of their career trajectory.\nWe\u2019ve seen small businesses start to compete with larger corporates through creating authentic employer branding content showcasing their mission and culture. Recruitment efforts that combine unique, value-adding content offering insight into the people behind the job titles have proven to be the most effective.\nThe workforce of the future is looking for greater autonomy and freedom in their roles as evidenced in our #WorkHappy Index where respondents listed greater flexibility as the one thing that would improve their current job. The recent study shows that for 18 to 35-year-olds the \u201cability to develop and grow\u201d is the number one reason to accept a job. The data collected also shows that 82% of candidates would not take a job at a company with a poor reputation and more than 50% would take a lower wage at a company with a strong employer brand. Reputation is everything and its power means that companies who don\u2019t work on their employee engagement strategies will lose out in the war for talent.\nBut where can you start working on your brand as an employer? First, you need to work on your company story \u2014 figure out who you are and what kind of professionals you want to attract. Don\u2019t forget to refine your mission statement and company values in a way that is easy to understand and relatable to others.\nOnce you get this right, it is time to turn the information you compiled into some well-crafted content that will tell your story to those who don\u2019t know who you are. You can start with simple pieces, like some blog posts on your company\u2019s website, and evolve from that to more complex content, such as videos, ebooks and podcasts. Our research showed that 78% of candidates feel that behind the scenes videos impact their perception of an employer, leading to a 36% increase in job applications. A good thing about investing in these types of content is that they can be later repurposed to your social media channels, helping you to spread your company story even further.\nEmployee advocacy is also an incredible tool for recruiting new hires. Encourage your existing staff to talk about life within your business and promote your culture, values and mission on their own professional networks. Educate your current employees on the importance of expanding the team together so that they\u2019re invested in the process. You can even offer incentives for advocacy or referrals, but just be mindful that hiring from the same pool of talent can be limiting in terms of gaining different perspectives and experiences.\nDon\u2019t take for granted the power of job fairs and the possibilities that a connection in real-life can bring to your business. At the end of the day, startups should have a well-mixed strategy combining both online and offline ideas to get the best talent into their offices.\nCEO Jobbio\njobbio.com",

        "raw_content": "Many small business owners, particularly those running a one-man show, fall into the pattern of trying to do everything in-house. Hiring people to do all the jobs needed to get done can be expensive, and marketing is an area where business owners are especially reluctant to bring on additional help. Marketing professionals aren\u2019t cheap, and their work relies on a certain level of existing business infrastructure.\nAre you generating leads but not closing any deals? Are you having trouble generating leads in the first place? You might consider hiring a marketing consultant on an as-needed basis. Many small business owners recoil at the word \u201cconsultant\u201d. Common concerns include the expense, potentially unproductive, and a drain on the budget, but when properly used, marketing consultants can greatly benefit your small business.\nLet\u2019s take a look at these benefits through the lens of four of the most common reasons business owners do not hire consultants.\n\u201cBusiness is down \u2013 this isn\u2019t the right time to bring on additional help.\u201d\nThe key question to ask here is, why is business down? If it\u2019s down because the quality of your product hasn\u2019t kept up with your competitors, or because you\u2019ve lost key service workers who were the main asset of your enterprise, then a marketing consultant probably can\u2019t resolve those problems. If business is down because of the general economy, your pricing is out of tune with the market, or because your marketing strategy isn\u2019t coherent, then a slow business cycle is the time when you most need the help! If you have a quality product or service, a skilled consultant can help you adjust the way you\u2019re selling it and get the cash registers ringing again.\n\u201cI create our marketing strategy myself\u2014who knows the business better?\u201d\nIt\u2019s true that you know your business better than anyone\u2014but that very familiarity can be a weakness. Almost no business owner thinks their marketing strategy needs help, but the reality is, unless you are the Michael Jordan of marketing, your strategy probably has areas where it could be stronger. A consultant has created dozens of marketing plans and strategies and implemented them successfully, and equally importantly, he or she is not blinded by love for what you\u2019ve already done. A consultant can look at your work, objectively assess the good and the bad, then help you strengthen what\u2019s working and eliminate what\u2019s not.\n\u201cThe internal politics would make it difficult for a consultant to get anywhere.\u201d\nAh, office politics. If you work with a team, you have most likely had to navigate differences in perspectives and even opinions. One major advantage of a marketing consultant is that they are an objective resource. A good consultant will hear out all of the ideas, suggestions, and perspectives, and will build a consensus based on what\u2019s best for the business. In fact, one of a marketing consultant\u2019s greatest strengths is usually that they are highly skilled at navigating office politics and building consensus among rival individuals. This is due to being perceived as \u201coutsiders\u201d, who have no agenda other than the success of the business.\n\u201cI just don\u2019t have time to hire someone.\u201d\nSmall business owners often feel overwhelmed, a situation which can compound itself as minor tasks turn into a cascade of disasters. However, a good marketing consultant will end up saving you time, even in the short run. Jobs that you\u2019re doing on an amateur basis (and taking twenty hours a week to get accomplished), can be done by your consultant in significantly less time. A good consultant knows that their ability to get rehired depends entirely on your perception of their value, so they have every incentive to get as much done as possible in the time that you\u2019ve budgeted for them.\nWe\u2019ve laid out the case for marketing consultants here, but we do need to recognize that not every business is a good fit for these professionals. You have to assess your own business, its circumstances, and its needs before making this call. A cost-benefit analysis to determine what you can get out of a marketing consultant, and what they will cost you, is an excellent first step in deciding whether a consultant is the right solution for your business.\nConsidering getting marketing help for your business?

        "raw_content": "June 2009, Sunday\nIn Damascus, it is 43 degrees Celsius. It has got to be afternoon when we step out into the waiting white Toyota Landcruiser, with the text of the UNHCR. Michelle Alfaro has worked at the UNHCR office (the UN Refugee Agency) in Damascus for almost three years. The situation, as she sees it, is almost hopeless, with one and a half million Iraqi refugees (if not more), and the few pleasures of everyday life. Today it is a bit of a festive atmosphere in the white jeep, when it turns up on road number 2, which will take us out of the bustling Damascus and further out towards the border with Iraq. The trip will take three hours and bring us into the desert landscape. Here, on the border with Iraq, the seven-kilometer-wide no man's land, lies the refugee camp Al-Tanf.\nSweden has decided to accept 150 of the total of 850 refugees who fled here from Iraq. All of the 150 selected as having a particular need for protection and a strong need to get a new home. No one considered having any chance of returning to Iraq. The last of the accepted group of refugees will now be transported out of the camp to be transported to Sweden.\nThe sun is in zenith, and it's hot. It is not the incredible heat in summer, winter's biting cold or the many sandstorms that most people fear, but scorpions and rats, and poison snakes crawling into tents in their hunt for rats.\nDag Kymell and Fredrik Larsson from the Immigration Service provides information to the families that the UNHCR has assisted in the selection of the Immigration Service in-depth interviews on the spot. The delegation consists of six officers they are sharing the six delegates who have the difficult task of assessing which of these are in accordance with Swedish law, a special protection needs and in such cases can be considered as quota refugees\nAnother perhaps more deadly danger is tent fires resulting from cooking on gas kitchens or by an electrical fault. Electricity comes from a diesel driven electricity unit and headed out to each of the tents. That way you can operate TV sets and upload by mobile phone. There are two important channels of information that makes it possible to keep up with what's happening around the world and in particular on the situation in their home country - Iraq. All have left something behind and hope to be able to return slowly fades away as the days are added to the year and become the memories.\nAfter the information meeting with Dag and Frederick are the families called for an interview with one of the six managers. They each have their smaller tents, with a desk, an interpreter and a few chairs. On the desktop, their laptops, pen and paper. A napkin pack is made of the tears that often come with painful memories retold and re-experienced. After the family and the Administrator have exchanged a few polite phrases with the help of an interpreter and some brief information, taken a picture of the family so that the administrator more easily remember all those interviewed. Then you start with the interviews with each of the family members. Since the children are under eighteen years is necessary consent from the parents of private conversation with them. Most have nothing against it.\nSince 1948, when the Israeli - Palestinian War was raging and the Israelis called the War of Independence and the Palestinians 'Nakba' - the disaster, displaced one million people from their homes and many Palestinians fled to neighboring countries around. In Iraq was part residence. Here they could live work and learn. But U.S. and Allied war changed everything, and the volatile city condition that was created after the fall of Saddam Hussein, could not protect the Palestinians. With anonymous letters, they were warned that they would be killed if they do not \"moved\". Shortly thereafter began the attacks.\nIt can be a difficult process to define one's identity, then there are a lot of false documents in circulation. Not nessecary because the person want to pretend to be someone else. In most cases false documents depends on that you needed a passport as soon as possible in order to leave Iraq, but to get a passport you need to have an identification card. To get an ID card issued could take two months and on the black market, it takes a couple of days. If the basic document is false issued it makes the passport false, no matter if the information is correct. At the Swedish Embassy in Damascus they issue the new passports containing quota refugees' residency.\n1 o'clock in the morning, at Hotel Four Seasons, Damascus. The team from the Migration Board works late into the night at their hotel inside Damascus, by going through the interviews that they did during the day. The trip out to the refugee camp takes 4h. This means that you must already go at 4 am. Due to safety reasons they must not be on the road after dark. Back journey is already at 4 in the afternoon.\nJuly, Sunday 2009\nYousif meet me at the car when I get out. We walk over to the tent where the girls and Ghadah doing the last packing. There are some who have left and the most beloved possessions are pushed down. After the bags are packed and arranged together with the other refugees' bags to be on the same bus, starts the big farewell. First collected the nearest relatives of one of the tents and then gives himself Yousif, Ghadah and the kids out to say goodbye to everyone else.\nSince Yousif also been active with music teaching in the camp school is some parting more painful. Especially among the children who do not know when the next will face its appreciated and important teacher again. Parting is sometimes very emotional, that even for me as a viewer's hard to hold back the tears.\nNames to be called out by Mutasem Hayatla, who works for UNHCR and has been responsible for the camp's operational part, since the first refugees arrived five years ago. He is now on the step to one of the buses. For him, days like this is incredibly happy, since he hopes the camp will be able to close before the years end. It is a febrile loading of bags and it is packed with people who want to say goodbye. Yousif and family walk into one of the bus and waving goodbye.\nAfter we crossed through at the checkpoint at the Syrian border, the new Swedish passport is distributed. Yousif leans back and looks at Ghadah and their children who are anxiously watching the passports.\nThe time is already twelve at night, when we check in the luggage at the airport. 32 kg overweight. The staff behind the counter at Czech Airlines sighed.\nFirst sight of the Swedish soil. This year, Sweden has decided to help the 1900 refugees from five different locations arround the world, in order to resettle them in Sweden. One of the camps is Al-Tanf, where nobody in the camp considered to have any chance of returning to Iraq.\nJune 2009, Monday\nWhen the airplane well lands in V\u00e4xj\u00f6, the journey have last for twenty-two hours and we are all worn out. However Ghadah are most worn, since she is five months pregnant. The last flight between Arlanda and V\u00e4xj\u00f6 was considerably rough, and she vomited.\nDazed meet the family Yousif's brother at the airport. Ali and his nephew As'sad who have lived in V\u00e4xsj\u00f6 for four years. The joy is great and Ali successful drive the car in wrong direction by misstake and must call for help to find the right way. Once we arrive at the home of Ali, the party is on. All talking in each others mouth and laughs.\nJune 2009, Tuesday\nCarin Brito is the family's administrators on Introducing The Team of the municipality and she has asked to meet with the family at 13:00. Yousif and family arrive in good time with the help of his nephew As'sad.\nThe team, as Carin works for, is designed to help new arrivals as soon as possible to enter into Swedish society. Among other things, she explains how it works with the apartment that the family will live in. It is a local apartment that is temporarily before having to get their own contract from the Housing Service. Normally it takes anywhere from six months up to one year. The most important step, though, is to get a personal number so you can apply for a ID card with the tax authorities.\nMalaak try her new bed. The family has just received the keys to the apartment. In the camp was the hole familly sleeping in the same bed and for Malaak who is three years old, it is the first time she has a separate bed.\nSince it is now summer holidays there will be a couple of months before the family may begin their studies at Swedish for Immigrants (SFI), and Carin is soon off for vacation as well. She has notified Malaak to kindergarten, but when they find a place at the nursery school may be long as for other children. Mariam is to start in school in a class of immigrants in august, where they only read Swedish first year, and then become placed in ordinary Swedish school\nJuly 2009, Thursday\nI ring at the door bell of the famillys apartment. Yousif opens with a broad smile and says welcome. We drink morning coffee and have breakfast together. Ghadah helps Mariam to put up their hair in braids. Malaak is still asleep. Yousif sigh and look out the window when suddenly he says - Now it does not matter what happens to me because I know my family is safe.\nMariam in school learning swedish\nMariams first contact with Lucia celebrations.\nMariam with her new best friend from the Balkans",

        "title": "The Fight over DACA Makes Home Hostile for Young Immigrants",
        "raw_content": "The Fight over DACA Makes Home Hostile for Young Immigrants\nYoung Voices Advocates\nEditor's Note: This column was written by John Kristof\nBetween May 9 and May 18, nearly two hundred lawmakers have signed a petition that would force the House to vote on a crucial piece of immigration legislation.\nIf passed, House Resolution 774 would force a floor vote on immigration reform. After being discharged on May 9, the resolution requires a petition signed by 218 representatives to be considered. As of May 21, 196 representatives have signed the petition, including 20 Republicans\u2013\u2013all 193 Democrats and five more Republicans would need to sign the petition to reach 218 signatures.\nOne of the key issues are the fates of nearly 700,000 young people at risk of deportation should Trump administration successfully phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), as he initially promised last fall. Although the DACA program presently remains intact, its long-term legal status is up in the air after its removal has faced legal challenges from federal judges while seven states have sued the Trump Administration to force its dissolution.\nThe Obama administration created DACA in 2012 to buy time for some undocumented immigrants while Congress developed comprehensive immigration reform. Under certain conditions, DACA allowed people who illegally entered the country as children to receive official documentation. Through this program, Dreamers could go to school, work, have a driver\u2019s license, own a home, and pay taxes. DACA allowed migrants to make a life for themselves in the only home most of them have known.\nIf approval for a DACA recipient expires, that person is considered \u201cunlawfully present.\u201d If the immigrant works, she legally must be fired; if she is a student, she must lose federal financial aid; and if she happens to be a homeowner, she must move out.\nIn theory, if DACA expires, recipients would pack up and move back home. This very notion fails to appreciate who Dreamers are. DACA affects undocumented immigrants who crossed the border as children, almost always were brought by their parents. Although they may have been born in another country, DACA recipients grew up, went to school, and worked in the United States. Their \u201cnative\u201d nation is often more foreign to them in the United States. Subjecting former recipients to deportation is not simply a matter of making them return home; it forces them to abandon the life they built and start anew in a land of strangers. Because home is the United States for most Dreamers, the majority will likely choose to remain in the country and hope they do not run into trouble.\nUnfortunately for former DACA recipients, trouble has become much harder to avoid. During the Trump administration\u2019s first year in office, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has increased arrests by over 40 percent. Most of that increase is due to a shift in focus that came with the changing of the guard. Under the Obama Administration, ICE focused resources on detaining undocumented immigrants with criminal activity. Since President Trump took office, ICE has shown little regard for the civility of the undocumented immigrant, arresting non-criminal persons at twice the rate in 2017 as it did in 2016. With a backlog of over 650,000 cases, detained migrants have little hope of a speedy judicial resolution.\nOnly a handful of Republicans have signed the petition, but they can no longer afford to stall a resolution to the DACA question. DACA is not just a Democratic talking point \u2013 nearly 340,000 people in states that swung red in 2016 are DACA recipients. Nearly nine out of ten of them use DACA to work legally, contributing over $16.6 billion to their states\u2019 economies. Without DACA, Republican states would lose almost $270 million in tax revenues. Although GOP lawmakers are slowly endorsing a nativist immigration policy, the numbers indicate embracing DACA reform is good for their constituents and their local economies.\nSome GOP lawmakers see immigration as a positive but are concerned that DACA incentivizes migrants to cross the border illegally. Since DACA\u2019s establishment, however, illegal immigration rates have dropped, so other factors appear more influential on a family\u2019s decision to migrate. Even if reducing illegal immigration was the primary concern of DACA reform, repeal is misguided.\nDreamers did not choose to immigrate illegally, and repealing DACA would make them outlaws in their own land, increasing illegal immigration to boot.\nA number of Republican congressmen assured constituents that Congress had plenty of time to create a permanent, comprehensive immigration solution. After eight months, there is no reason to delay action any further and treat young immigrants like political pawns. The time has come for legislators to demonstrate the leadership they promised and pass humane immigration reform. All Americans benefit when we treat Dreamers like the neighbors they are.\nJohn Kristof is a Research Fellow at the Sagamore Institute in Indianapolis and a freelance writer with Young Voices Advocates.

        "title": "Bold Leadership: Why Trump is Right to Withdraw from Obama's Terrible Iran Deal",
        "raw_content": "Bold Leadership: Why Trump is Right to Withdraw from Obama's Terrible Iran Deal\nIn light of President Trump's announcement this afternoon, the Obama administration's executive deal on the Iranian nuclear program is no longer US policy. It's undoubtedly true that Trump's decision is a controversial one that flies in the face of many American allies' diplomatic preferences and postures. It's also fair to argue that pulling out unilaterally will have less of an impact than a coordinated international effort, and that the ripple effect of the United States' withdrawal will create unforeseen tensions and complications. Nevertheless, Trump has done the right thing, in my view, because the Iran deal constituted an irresponsible, lopsided and weak giveaway to one of the most evil regimes on the planet. Here are three arguments in support of Trump's choice:\n(1) By Obama's own admission, the Iran nuclear agreement clears the way for the regime to achieve threshold nuclear-armed status. The pact's key Western-imposed restrictions automatically expire after a period of 10-15 years, over which time period Iran is explicitly permitted to enrich uranium, utilize advanced centrifuges, and continue key research and development activities. The regime's nuclear program was not dismantled by any stretch of the imagination under the accord; it was, at best, partially and temporarily mothballed. The previous administration pledged that its negotiations with Tehran would result in Iran's nuclear program being ended, with all paths to nuclear weapons closed off. In reality, what they eventually agreed to amounted to a \"pause\" button, which overwhelmingly benefitted the Iranians -- who receive more than $100 billion in sanctions relief in exchange for fleeting concessions. This is a quote from Obama himself:\n\"What is a more relevant fear would be that in Year 13, 14, 15, they have advanced centrifuges that enrich uranium fairly rapidly, and at that point, the breakout times would have shrunk almost down to zero.\"\nThe key point is, even if Iran chose to be fully compliant, the agreement would merely slightly delay their nuclear ambitions, while paving a path to a globally-legitimized nuclear program in the near future. Furthermore, both the former president and UN Secretary General have each acknowledged that post-implementation, Iran has violated \"the spirit\" of the agreement. Obama also admitted that some portion of the regime's international windfall has been funneled to terrorists. This comes as no surprise, given the \"death to America\" regime's longstanding status as the world's foremost state sponsor of terrorism. Here is former Democratic Vice Presidential nominee and Senator Joe Lieberman laying out the case for Trump's important determination over the weekend:\n(2) New evidence illustrates and demonstrates the depths of Iranian deceit. Part of the deal was that Tehran had to be 100 percent transparent about its nuclear history, owning up to the full extent of its previous activities on that front. Doing so was a mandatory prerequisite prior to implementation. Rather than acting in good faith and admitting their prior pursuit of nuclear weapons, Iran lied -- repeatedly -- while secretly hiding its vast trove of nuclear know-how, specifically catalogued for the purpose of developing nuclear weapons in the future. The idea, it seems, was to dupe the West into offering all sorts of goodies along the way, only to dust off their nuclear research when the coast was relatively clear. Almost everyone suspected that Iran was lying about its previous activities, but Israel's recent intelligence bonanza proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt. Israeli spies managed to steal tens of thousands of pages of Iranian nuclear files from their secret storage facility in Tehran, likely with help from the inside. Under the terms of the agreement, Iran had no choice but to completely open its books prior to ratification. Instead, they lied and literally hid their books, which the world can now see, thanks to the Mossad's clandestine efforts. This puts the lie to the oft-repeated refrain that Iran is \"in compliance\" with the deal. False. They cheated from the very beginning. New York Times columnist Bret Stephens contextualizes this well:\n\u201cThe sanctions lifting will only occur as Iran takes the steps agreed, including addressing possible military dimensions.\u201d That was State Department spokesman John Kirby in June 2015, speaking just as negotiations for the Iran nuclear deal were wrapping up. But Tehran did not \u201ctake the steps agreed.\u201d The deal was founded on a lie. Two lies, actually. The first was Iran\u2019s declaration to the International Atomic Energy Agency, prior to the implementation of the deal, of the full extent of its past nuclear work. This was essential, both as a test of Tehran\u2019s sincerity and as a benchmark for understanding just how close it was to being able to assemble and deliver a nuclear warhead...So much for the notion that Iran has honored its end of the bargain. It didn\u2019t. This should render the agreement null and void...Iran\u2019s mendacity is no longer the informed supposition of proliferation experts...\nAs for Iran\u2019s current compliance, of course it\u2019s complying. The deal gave Iran the best of all worlds. It weakened U.N. restrictions on its right to develop, test and field ballistic missiles \u2014 a critical component for a nuclear weapons capability that the Iranians haven\u2019t fully mastered. It lifted restrictions on Iran\u2019s oil exports and eased other sanctions, pumping billions of dollars into a previously moribund economy. And it allows Iran to produce all the nuclear fuel it wants come the end of the next decade. Yes, Iran is permanently enjoined from building a nuclear weapon, even after the limitations on uranium enrichment expire. But why believe this regime will be faithful to the deal at its end when it was faithless to it at its beginning?\nIran may be \"complying\" in the moment, but despite this course of action clearly being in their best interests, even that proposition remains murky. Reports like this and this raise serious questions about Iran's ongoing surreptitious pursuit of banned materials -- and the Iranians continue to insist that not all areas within their borders are, in fact, subject to international inspections.\n(3) A final, important point on the legality and legitimacy of Trump's unilateral action:\nIn choosing not to pursue his weak, lopsided Iran deal as a formal treaty \u2014 having utterly failed to persuade even 40% (!) of Congress that it was wise policy \u2014 President Obama set the stage for his succcessor\u2019s reported withdrawal today.\nUnilateralism can be quickly erased.\n\u2014 Guy Benson (@guypbenson) May 8, 2018\nMany of us argued precisely this point during the political fight over the Iran deal, but it fell on deaf ears. Obama and John Kerry were dead set on a legacy \"achievement,\" and nothing was going to stand in their way. When push came to shove, Congress was reduced to casting a symbolic vote against the accord. More than 60 percent of all Senators and Representatives voted in opposition to the plan (327 out of 535 voting members), including dozens of House Democrats and a number of high-ranking upper chamber Democrats. Even in an era of pitched partisanship, the likes of Chuck Schumer and Bob Menendez and Ben Cardin could not bring themselves to endorse a reckless nuclear giveaway engineered by their own party's president. Congress may have been willing to accept and formalize a more robust pact, but the Obama administration didn't craft one. Furthermore, Donald Trump's campaign rhetoric on this subject was unambiguous: He loathed the agreement and promised to undo it. He won the election. As we've seen on other major hot-button issues, he is now following through on that pledge. And he has the power do to so with the stroke of a pen entirely thanks to the myopic, arrogant choices, and failures -- both persuasive and sunstative -- of his predecessor. Perhaps this represents, as Obama loved to say, a bitterly 'teachable moment.'",

The report shows that a major shift in consumer banking behaviour across the world can be expected over the next five years. Our research shows that three-quarters of consumers say that they would consider using technology providers for services that they usually use their bank for today.\n68% of people have never used a technology provider for any financial service but, in five years\u2019 time, 48% of consumers expect to use a technology provider for at least one service their bank would usually provide. Plus, 32% expect to use a technology provider for 50% or more of their financial needs. In ten years\u2019 time, 1 in 5 consumers anticipate they will trust technology providers for all their financial needs from credit cards to mortgages.\nThe report surveyed more than 9000 adults from across Europe, North America and Asia Pacific including UK, France, Germany, the US and Australia. TransferWise also surveyed its own customer base to compare the attitudes of early technology adopters to general consumers. Read the full report here.\nTaavet Hinrikus, CEO and co-founder, TransferWise:\n\u201cThe world of finance is about to change - for good and for the better. In five years\u2019 time, the financial services sector will look completely different with a host of new providers and innovative new services. In ten years, it will be transformed. The main shift will be in our expectations and behaviour as consumers. Most of us are now happy to use alternatives to banks for more and more of our financial needs.\nIn five years\u2019 time, some parts of the sector will be almost universally controlled by non-banks; other parts will be a mix.

        "raw_content": "07/03/2017 By Traveling Canucks 12 Comments Categories: Adventures Beautiful BC Series British Columbia Canada Family Travel Tips Featured Sightseeing Top Lists Travel Stories Travel Tips Trip Ideas Vancouver\n25 Awesome Day trips from Vancouver\nIf you\u2019ve visited Vancouver, chances are you\u2019ve walked around Stanley Park\u2019s infamous seawall, wandered around the market on Granville Island, snapped a photo of the old Steam Clock in Gastown, shopped on Robson Street and raised a glass in Granville\u2019s entertainment district.\nWhile there are countless things to see and do in Vancouver, there\u2019s even more adventure waiting for you just outside the city limits (there\u2019s good reason why Vancouver consistently ranks as one of the world\u2019s most livable cities).\nAs residents of North Vancouver, we\u2019ve spent the past few years exploring our big, beautiful backyard. It\u2019s been fun doing the research for this long overdue blog post!\nToday, we\u2019d like to share OUR favourite day trips from Vancouver.\nBefore we get started, it should be noted that you can easily convert some of these day trips into an overnight trip or weekend getaway. Read this post for the best road trip from Vancouver for first time visitors. We would highly recommend going slow and spending quality time at each spot, but we\u2019d also completely understand if you wanted to see it all.\nWe\u2019re going to kick things off with our #1 recommended day trip, rather then saving the best for last. Located 125 km north of Vancouver (about 1.5 hour drive), Whistler is a four season resort town with more than 8,000 acres of terrain spread across multiple mountain peaks.\nSimply put \u2013 if you like adventure, Whistler has you covered.\nWhistler gained world fame in 2010 when it co-hosted the Winter Olympics with the city of Vancouver. Whistler consistently ranks as the top ski resort in North America and, in 2008, it introduced the world record-breaking Peak 2 Peak Gondola, completing the longest continuous lift system in the world.\nOver the past decade, Whistler has evolved to become one of the top summer destinations in Canada. It boasts over 50 kms of high alpine hiking trails, multiple golf courses, epic zip-line courses, ATV and off road tours, paragliding and bungee jumping, nature and wildlife tours, summer bobsleigh at the Whistler Slide Centre, endless biking trails and several fresh water lakes.\nThe Mountain Bike Park on Whistler Mountain has quickly become one of the best in North America and Whistler hosts several festivals and events each year, including the World Ski & Snowboard Festival in April and Crankworx Mountain Bike Festival in August.\nRead more \u2013 25 Photos from our trip to Whistler\nAnother great day trip from Vancouver is Horseshoe Bay, the gateway to Howe Sound and the Sunshine Coast. It\u2019s a small village and marina that\u2019s located on the western tip of West Vancouver.\nIt\u2019s also the location of the third busiest BC Ferries terminal. If you plan to visit Vancouver Island, Bowen Island or the Sunshine Coast, you will board your ferry at Horseshoe Bay.\nEven if you don\u2019t plan to take a ferry, Horseshoe Bay is a fun place to have lunch and spend the afternoon. There are a few restaurants in the village, including the legendary Trolls Restaurant (get the Oyster Burger or Clam Chowder), and there is a rocky beach with a playground that faces the marina.\nAfter you visit Horseshoe Bay, check out nearby Whytecliff Park, one of the first Marine Protected Areas in Canada and a popular cold water scuba diving spot.\nIf you have time on your drive back to Vancouver, visit nearby Lighthouse Park, located in a residential area in West Vancouver. It is a popular attraction and a National Historic Site of Canada.\nSearch for hotel deals in Vancouver here.\n3. Rent a boat and tour Howe Sound\nHowe Sound is network of fjords situated between West Vancouver and the Sunshine Coast, about 30 minutes northwest of Vancouver. This is one of the most beautiful areas in the Lower Mainland. If you\u2019re looking for a unique way to experience BC\u2019s endless natural beauty, driving a boat around Howe Sound should be on your list.\nOne of the things we like to do in Vancouver during the summer is to visit the lazy seals that hang out on Pam Rocks, a cluster of tiny islands located in the center of Howe Sound. The only way to see these small rock islands and its wildlife is by boat. Fortunately, one can easily rent a small motor boat from nearby Horseshoe Bay.\nThe best place to rent a boats is Sewell\u2019s Marina. Renting a boat is relatively inexpensive and you don\u2019t need to have a special boat licence. A standard driver\u2019s license is sufficient. For two hours of personal boat time (usually enough to get to the seal colony and back) it\u2019s about $130-$150. The boat fits between 4-6 people.\nTo visit marine parks and secluded coves that can only be reached by water, it\u2019s wise to do the 4-hour rate and head to Gambier or Anvil Islands.\nRelated \u2013 Searching for Seals in Howe Sound\nLocated approximately 25 km\u2019s northwest of Vancouver, Bowen Island is a laid-back island that feels miles away from the hustle of the big city. The island is only 6 km wide and 12 km long, so you can easily explore the island in one day. Popular activities are kayaking, mountain biking, hiking and boating.\nThe Snug Cove ferry terminal has a marina with small shops and restaurants. The most popular beaches on Bowen Island are Tunstall Bay, Bowen Bay and Sandy Beach.\nAn easy scenic hike is the Killarney Lake trail. It takes about 2 hours round trip, covering 9 km\u2019s. A more challenging hike is the summit of Mount Gardner. It takes about 7 hours, covering 17 km\u2019s round trip.\nTo get to Bowen Island, you take a 20 minute ferry from Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver or take a 45 minute water taxi from Granville Island. Check with BC Ferries for sailing times.\nRelated \u2013 9 Essential Hikes in Vancouver\n5. The Sunshine Coast\nAlthough the Sunshine Coast may not always live up to its name (it\u2019s located in the Pacific Northwest, after all), it\u2019s a beautiful coastal area that stretches from Langdale to Lund, with many quaint communities in between. If you\u2019ve got the time, this is a great place for a coastal road trip.\nPart of the fun is the actual journey to the Sunshine Coast. Most visitors will access the Sunshine Coast by ferry from Horseshoe Bay, but you can also catch a float plane depending on the time of year. The ferry ride and marinas are quintessentially West Coast.\nIf you only have one day, you\u2019ll want to focus your time on Langdale and Hopkins Landing. Hopkins Landing is a short walk from the Langdale ferry terminal and there\u2019s a beach that overlooks the North Shore mountains. It\u2019s a great spot for kayaking, swimming and beachcombing.\nSearch for hotel deals on the Sunshine Coast here.\nLocated on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is one of the oldest cities in the Pacific Northwest. Many people make the mistake of assuming that Vancouver is the capital city of British Columbia, when in fact it\u2019s actually Victoria.\nVictoria is approximately 100 kilometers from both Vancouver and Seattle, making it the perfect day trip or weekend getaway for tourists and mainland residents (we try to visit Victoria at least once every year).\nWhile you technically can visit Victoria in one day, we\u2019d recommend you give it at least one night. Maybe two or three.\nMost people will catch the ferry that departs from Tsawwassen BC Ferries Terminal, but you can take a bus from downtown Vancouver that will drop you off in downtown Victoria (ticket includes the ferry crossing). If you\u2019re a first time visitor to Vancouver and you don\u2019t have a vehicle, we\u2019d recommend the bus option over renting a car and driving on the ferry.\nYou can also take a float plane from downtown Vancouver, which is a lot of fun. If you\u2019ve only got one day to spend in Victoria, the float plane is the fastest and most convenient option. The ferry option will take you at least 4 hours in each direction.\nIf you decide to stay overnight \u2013 here\u2019s where to stay:\n7. Squamish\nLocated about halfway between Vancouver and Whistler, the town of Squamish continues to build its brand as an outdoor adventure destination. It\u2019s an easy drive from Vancouver and the scenery is outstanding.\nWe could dedicate an entire blog post about things to do in Squamish. You can make several day trips from Vancouver to Squamish and still only scratch the surface. For the thrill-seeker, the rock climbing at the Stawamus Chief is world class and the Via Ferrata from the Summit Lodge is fun change of pace.\nIf you prefer to get in the water, the Squamish Spit is home to some of the best windsurfing and kite surfing on the West Coast. There area also dozens of hiking trails and parks, including the family-friendly Four Lakes Trail and the full day Elfin Lakes hike.\nOther activities include a visit the West Coast Rail Heritage Park (home to the annual Polar Express experience), eagle viewing in Brackendale, golfing at Furry Creek, paddling and fishing on Alice Lake, white-water rafting down the Cheakamus River, shopping at the Squamish Farmers\u2019 Market and brewery tours at Howe Sound Brewing.\nRelated \u2013 The best road trip from Vancouver for first time visitors\n8. Sea to Sky Gondola\nThe newest attraction in Squamish is the impressive Sea to Sky Gondola, a 10-minute gondola that transports guests up the side of a mountain to a lodge that overlooks Howe Sound and the surrounding Coast Mountains.\nThere are lots of things to do once you reach the summit. The Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge is a big hit and will surely give you butterflies in your stomach as it sways from side to side. There are multiple viewing platforms and several hiking trails for all skill levels. The Summit Lodge has an amazing patio, so if you\u2019re not up for adventure, you can enjoy lunch with outstanding views.\nIf you plan to visit the Sea to Sky Gondola on a weekend in the summer, make sure you arrive early because it\u2019s become quite a popular attraction and parking is limited close to the entrance.\nThere\u2019s overflow parking available across the highway from Shannon Falls Provincial Park (you should check out these falls if you visit the gondola). We\u2019re told that there\u2019s a free shuttle service on the weekends. Or, you can walk 15-minutes to the Gondola through the connector trail.\nRelated \u2013 Sea to Sky Gondola in Squamish\nThe Britannia Mine Museum, formerly British Columbia Museum of Mining, is located in Britannia Beach, which is about 55 km kilometres north of Vancouver on the Sea-to-Sky Highway on Howe Sound. The Museum site itself is an exhibit \u2013 from historical machinery to heritage buildings to the massive yellow dump truck that lives within the facility.\nYou can take an underground tour of the mine on an old mine train. The 45 minute guided tour gives you an understanding of what life was like as a miner back in the early 1900s. Our boys were quite young when we took the train tour (3 and 1 year old) and they had a lot of fun.\nYou only need about 2 hours to explore the museum and take the mine train tour, so this is a good activity to bundle with a visit to the Sea to Sky Gondola or Porteau Cove (see item #10 below).\n10. Porteau Cove Provincial Park\nPorteau Cove is a small provincial park in British Columbia (about 50 hectares in size), situated on the most southerly fjord in North America. The park stretches between the shoreline of Howe Sound and the Sea-to-Sky Highway, about 20 minutes south of Squamish.\nAside from its rocky beaches and breathtaking mountain vistas, Porteau Cove\u2019s star attraction the old ferry terminal that\u2019s been converted into a pedestrian pier. It\u2019s also a popular cold water scuba dive spot because it has a series of artificial reefs and two sunken ships.\nRelated \u2013 An oceanfront cabin retreat at Porteau Cove\n11. Garibaldi Provincial Park\nGaribaldi Provincial Park is a massive wilderness park located between Squamish and Whistler, about a 1.5 hour drive from downtown Vancouver. This beautiful park is best visited during the summer months, when you can hike the popular Garibaldi Lake trail.\nThe park covers an area of over 1,950 square kilometres (753 sq mi) and is home to some of British Columbia\u2019s most impressive hiking trails. There are five entrance points located along the Sea to Sky Highway. There are also several camp sites that are first come, first served.\nThe most popular trails in Garibaldi Provincial Park are Diamond Head, Black Tusk, Garibaldi Lake, Wedgemount Lake, Cheakamus Lake and Singing Pass. If you\u2019re looking for a full day leg burner, the Garibaldi Lake hike will do the trick.\n12. Whale watching in the Strait of Georgia\nThe Southern Gulf Islands, an archipelago of small islands located between Vancouver Island the Lower Mainland, offer some of the best spots to witness orca whales in their natural habitat. This is one of the best day trips from Vancouver, in our opinion.\nThe best time to go whale watching is during the salmon migration in the summer months between May to October. Whales, sea birds and other marine animals are attracted to the area to feed, resulting in very strong success rate on many whale watching tours.\nThere are plenty of whale watching operators based out of Vancouver that offer a variety of options, from 2 hour tours to full day excursions.\nRelated \u2013 Surrounded by Killer Whales in the Salish Sea\n13. Capilano Suspension Bridge and Cliffwalk\nLocated in the District of North Vancouver, near the base of Grouse Mountain, the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is a fun and easy day trip from Vancouver. Over the years, the park has added several features to compliment its famous bouncing suspension bridge, including the recently added Cliffwalk experience.\nThe Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is a great family friendly attraction for both tourists and locals. Aside from the bridge and cliffwalk, the park also offers the Treetops adventure, a series of seven suspension bridges attached to eight 30 ton, 250 year old Douglas-firs, and several boardwalks with viewpoints that overlook the canyon.\nIf you have time, try to squeeze in a visit to nearby Cleveland Dam.\nRelated \u2013 Cliffwalk at the Capilano Suspension Bridge\n14. Hiking and Kayaking in Deep Cove\nWe love Deep Cove. It\u2019s a quaint community in the easternmost North Vancouver, located at the entrance of Indian Arm It\u2019s about a 25 minute drive from Vancouver. There\u2019s a little village with a restaurants, shops and the infamous Honey\u2019s Doughnuts (Vancouverites come from far and wide to eat these decadent treats \u2013 careful though, they are highly addictive).\nDeep Cove is known for its marina and kayaking. You can rent kayaks, stand-up paddleboards and surfskis from Deep Cove Kayak. This shop gets VERY busy in the summer months, especially on the weekends. You\u2019re best to call ahead and make a reservation for equipment. Parking in Deep Cove can be challenging, so it\u2019s wise to arrive early (before 9:00 AM).\nAnother popular activity in Deep Cove is hiking to Quarry Rock. It\u2019s an easy hike that takes about 1.5 hours round trip, so it\u2019s an ideal day trip from Vancouver. The views from the top of Quarry Rock are fantastic. If you\u2019ve got the stamina and the time, you could hike the trail in the morning, have lunch at Arms Reach Bistro in the village, then go for a paddle in the afternoon.\nNow that\u2019s a perfect day in the Pacific Northwest!\n15. Play in the North Shore Mountains\nNo trip to Vancouver is complete without a visit to the North Shore Mountains. The most popular and accessible mountains are Grouse Mountain, Mount Seymour and Cypress Mountain. All three mountains have ski operations in the winter, extensive hiking trails in the summer and facilities with restaurants.\nGrouse Mountain, the self-described Peak of Vancouver, is the most popular mountain for tourists. To reach the peak, guests take the Skyride tram to the top of the mountain. This is always fun for first timers, regardless of the season.\nFor the more adventurous type, you can hike to the summit via the Grouse Grind, also known as Mother Nature\u2019s Staircase (it\u2019s a 2.9 km trail that climbs 2,800 feet). Novice hikers should plan for roughly two hours to ascend the trail. The record is 25 minutes.\nThere are restaurants and cafes at the summit of Grouse Mountain, so if you\u2019re not up for a strenuous afternoon you can simply enjoy the views with a cold beverage in hand. During the summer you can witness the Grizzly Bear habitat.\nCypress Mountain is located in the southern section of Cypress Provincial Park. With over 240 hectares of skiable terrain and 53 runs, Cypress Mountain has the largest ski area out of the three mountains. It hosted the Freestyle Skiing and Snowboarding events during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.\nMount Seymour is often overlooked by first time visitors to Vancouver because it\u2019s the furthest away from the downtown area and it\u2019s the smallest of the three local mountains. It\u2019s more of a family mountain and has some of the best snowshoeing and nordic skiing trails on the North Shore.\nRelated \u2013 The Peak of Christmas at Grouse Mountain\n16. Steveston Fisherman\u2019s Wharf\nSteveston is a charming fishing village in south Richmond, located 20 minutes south of Vancouver. It sits at the mouth of the Fraser River and was once the largest fishing port and cannery centre on the West Coast. It\u2019s also the departure point for many whale watching tours that explore the Gulf Islands and the San Juan islands (in Washington State).\nOn a sunny afternoon we like to visit the village and indulge in fish and chips and cold beer. Then we like to walk along the pier to burn off lunch.\nThe Gulf of Georgia Cannery (also known as the Monster Cannery) is now a National Historic Site, offering a glimpse into the history of the multicultural workers who kept the salmon canning lines moving in the early 1900\u2019s.\nSteveston is an active fishing harbour so you can walk along the docks and purchase fresh seafood directly from the fishing boats. You won\u2019t find better prices anywhere!\n17. River Rock Casino, Richmond\nThe River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond is the largest casino in British Columbia, generating an average of 10,000 visitors per day. With the addition of the Canada Line SkyTrain, the rapid transit railroad system that connects Richmond to Vancouver, there\u2019s now a train station located directly across from the casino, making it easily accessible from virtually anywhere in the city.\nThe River Rock has a large theater that hosts a variety of entertainment acts throughout the year. If you like Vegas style entertainment you\u2019ll enjoy an evening at the River Rock. Here\u2019s the upcoming schedule at the River Rock Theatre.\nIn the summer, the Richmond Night Market runs on weekends and is located within walking distance to the River Rock Casino. The Night Market features live performances, carnival games and over 200 retail stalls with over 500 food choices from around the world.\n18. Wine Tours in Langley\nDid you know that the Lower Mainland is home to several award winning wineries? You don\u2019t have to drive all the way to the Okanagan Valley to enjoy wine tasting and winery tours.\nChaberton Estate Winery is the oldest and largest winery in the Fraser Valley and the 5th largest in British Columbia. Other popular wineries are Township 7 Winery, Neck of the Woods Winery, Backyard Vineyards and the Fort Wine Co.\nLangley is about a 45 minute drive from Vancouver, depending on traffic (afternoon rush hour can add 1-2 hours). If you plan to sample a lot of wine and don\u2019t want to drive, you can organize wine tasting tours that depart from Vancouver and visit 3-4 wineries.\nIt\u2019s a fun day trip in the summer months.\nRelated \u2013 Why You Should Visit the Mosel Valley in Germany\n19. Cultus Lake Waterpark & Adventure Park\nLocated two hours east of Vancouver, just south of Chilliwack, sits Cultus Lake Provincial Park and its many family friendly attractions. The lake, beaches and surrounding forests are fantastic, but what lures families to this area is the Cultus Lake Waterpark and Cultus Lake Adventure Park.\nThe Adventure Park is British Columbia\u2019s newest family theme park and home to the Fraser Valley\u2019s only rollercoaster. It\u2019s also home to Giggle Ridge Adventure Golf (18 holes of mini-golf), Bumper Boats, Prospector\u2019s Peak and the Runaway Mine Train.\nCultus Lake Waterpark has all kinds of water slides, wading pools and themed attractions. You could spend the entire day at this park alone.\nIf you have younger children, check out Dinotown, a family theme park that has giant inflatable dinosaurs, live shows, dinosaur mini-golf, pedal cars, paddle boats and kids zip line.\nRelated \u2013 A look back on an epic summer in BC\n20. Chilliwack Lake Provincial Park\nChilliwack Lake Provincial Park is located 150 km east of Vancouver and 64 km southeast of Chilliwack (40km in from the Vedder Crossing).\nIt\u2019s a beautiful park surrounded by jagged mountain peaks and dense forest. There are several hiking trails, beaches, boat launches, parks and recreational facilities. This is a great spot to go boating, kayaking and canoeing.\nTo get to Chilliwack Lake, take Exit 104 from Highway 1 (Trans-Canada Hwy) and follow the signs for Cultus Lake until you reach Cultus Lake Road. Instead of turning there, follow Vedder Road across the bridge and turn right onto Chilliwack Lake Road. Follow this road for another 40 km to the lake and campground \u2013 visit BC Parks website for up-to-date information.\nRelated \u2013 Why We Love Living in British Columbia\n21. Sturgeon Fishing on the Fraser River (Chilliwack)\nIf you\u2019re looking for a truly unique experience, you should try sturgeon fishing on the North Fraser River. Sturgeons date back to the Triassic period, some 245 to 208 million years ago. So, basically, these are underwater dinosaurs! Okay, not really. But some of these massive fish are over 150 years old and grow over 10 feet long.\nYou can take a guided tour that departs from Chilliwack and goes up the North Fraser River. The river is loaded with sturgeon and salmon. While you\u2019re on the boat waiting for a fish to bite, it\u2019s common to see sturgeon breach along the river. On our trip, we witnessed about a dozen sturgeons jumping out of the water. It\u2019s quite the sight.\nChilliwack is about a 2 hour drive from Vancouver, depending on traffic. The fishing tours take between 6 to 8 hours, so this is a full day excursion. Here\u2019s the company we went with.\nWatch \u2013 Video of us catching a MASSIVE sturgeon fish\n22. Harrison Hot Springs\nHarrison Hot Springs is a resort community known for its hot springs and picturesque lake and mountain landscapes. It\u2019s located about 2.5 hours east of Vancouver. The Harrison Hot Springs Resort is one of the main attractions, with its 5 hot spring pools, Healing Springs Spa and four restaurants.\nThere\u2019s more to Harrison Hot Springs than its soothing hot spring pools. The lake offers every kind of water sport you can imagine, from kayaking to boating to the floating waterpark. It has a beach, waterfront parks, golf courses and several hiking trails.\nWhile you\u2019re in the area, check out Bridal Veil Falls Provincial Park and its beautiful cascading waterfalls. The park entrance is located just off the Trans-Canada Highway and it\u2019s only a 10 minute hike to the waterfalls, so this is an easy pit-stop that will only take about an hour.\nDuring the summer, you can also visit Bridal Falls Waterpark. It\u2019s a smaller waterpark (when compared to the Cultus Lake Waterpark), but it boasts heated water and plenty of kiddie slides and water play areas.\nRead next \u2013 22 stunning landscapes from Alberta\n23. Float plane to the Gulf Islands\nThe Gulf Islands are located in the Strait of Georgia (also known as Salish Sea), between Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia. The most popular islands are Salt Spring Island, Galiano Island and Pender Island.\nThe Gulf Islands are so peaceful and relaxing.\nYou feel like you\u2019re a world away from Vancouver, yet they\u2019re less than 100 kilometers away. You can reach the Gulf Islands by ferry, but that will end up being a very long day trip if you plan to return to Vancouver in the same day. You are better off spending a night or two if you plan to travel to the islands by ferry.\nAlternatively, you can catch a short float plane ride from Vancouver.\nWeather can/does impact flights, so you will need to have a Plan B if your flight is canceled or delayed due to severe fog or rain. You should be fine in the summer months, but winter can be hit and miss.\nThe float plane to the islands is half the fun, as you can see in this short video we captured while flying over Howe Sound and the Northern Gulf Islands.\nRelated \u2013 We found a slice of paradise on South Pender Island\n24. Hell\u2019s Gate Airtram\nHell\u2019s Gate Airtram is a gondola that transports guests across the powerful Fraser River, descending past steep and jagged rock walls. It\u2019s one of the steepest fully suspended trams in North America.\nOnce you reach the bottom of the Airtram you can walk across a suspension bridge and snap some photos from the observation decks. The Hells Gate Airtram is located just south of Boston Bar, which is about 3 hours east of Vancouver along the Trans-Canada Highway.\nIf you like white water rafting you might want to include a half day excursion down the Fraser River. There are a few rafting companies in the area \u2013 Fraser River Raft Expeditions and Kumsheen Rafting (about 45 minutes north of Hell\u2019s Gate).\nRelated \u2013 River Rafting the Mighty Thompson River\n25. Point Roberts in Washington State\nPoint Roberts is close in proximity to the skyscrapers of Vancouver but its chilled out vibe makes you feel as if you\u2019re hundreds of miles away from the big city lights. In fact, I don\u2019t even remember seeing a traffic light in Point Roberts?\nYes, Point Roberts that kind of place. Small, friendly, safe and quiet.\nThere are lots of things to do in Point Roberts, like biking, hiking and beach combing, but the most common activity is doing nothing. By that, I mean waking up in the morning with no agenda and letting the mood dictate how your day will play out.\nThe beaches in the Pacific Northwest are different from those found in the south or in tropical climates. They are not made of soft white sand that feels silky smooth on your feet. They are quite the opposite, actually. The beaches in this part of the world are rocky, rugged and filled with driftwood, sea shells and coarse sand. At low tide, the ocean floor is exposed and a world of treasures is revealed.\nNote: Point Roberts is located in the United States, so you will need a passport as you do need to cross over the border to get there.\nRead next \u2013 Photos from our trip to Point Roberts\nPick up & return your vehicle at the Vancouver airport.

        "title": "Dumaguete",
        "raw_content": "Some of the words that people who have traveled to Dumaguete for a vacation will use to describe the city are calm, relaxing, charming, romantic and peaceful. After all, Dumaguete is nicknamed \u201cThe City of Gentle People\u201d.\nDumaguete is the capital, largest city and principal seaport of the Philippine province of Negros Oriental. One of the reason\u2019s that Dumaguete attracts a lot of tourists (Europeans and Americans in particular) is that it is a short Ferry-ride from Cebu City. Tourists in that larger city come to Dumaguete to relax, dolphin or whale watch, enjoy the top dive spots or spend some time on one of the city\u2019s beautiful beaches.\nTo come and spend time in the charming city is to fall in love with it. It has become a favorite for foreign expats who can appreciate the beautiful beaches, nice people and the slower paced appeal than that of a larger metro city.\nOne could call Dumaguete a college town, or a University town since it is home four universities as well as a number of other colleges. The city is also well know for being the home of Silliman University, which is Asia\u2019s first American private university and also the first Protestant university in the Philippines.\nSome Tourist Attractions in Dumaguete:\nWorld Class Diving Spots \u2013 Here you can explore subterranean nooks and crannies, you are almost guaranteed to see friendly giant turtles in just about all of the dive sites and the island is considered to have the best corals and densest marine life in all of the Visayas. The marine sanctuary which is supported by Silliman University is the most famous dive site.\nWhale and Dolphin Watching \u2013 Take a boat ride out to the Tanon Strait which is the natural habitat for several dolphin and whale species. Dwarf sperm whales, pygmy sperm whales, short finned pilot whales, melon headed whales, bottle nose dolphins, long-snouted spinner dolphins and pan-tropical spotted dolphins are some of the sea mammals commonly seen.\nBlue water beaches and Pristine Lakes \u2013 As with most tropical paradises in the Philippines, Dumaguete has beautiful beaches and pristine lakes where you can unwind, sip on a drink with a little umbrella and soak in the sun. The twin lakes are very popular for those who want to swim, kayak or relax.\nTransportation and Hotels in Dumaguete:\nWith about seven back and forth ferry trips daily from Cebu to Dumaguete, getting there is relatively easy. The preferred way to go would be to take the high speed SuperKat which is a large catamaran, usually Danish made, that has the feel of an airplane. Relaxed, movies are shown and food options are usally available. They are not very expensive, but if you want to go even cheaper, you can take the Ceres bus which buses down and then crosses the small strait by ferry.\nAround the city you simply use the \u201cPedicab\u201d which are really \u201ctricycles\u201d. Metered taxis do not operate in Dumaguete as it is a small and simple place. The starting fare is about 8 pesos (less than 20 cents) to go a short distance.\nThe city has great hotels to accommodate its guests which can easily be found online.",

Over the past 16 years, many clubs have been bitten by the tree planting bug, with numerous clubs running their own Tree Day events and many more providing BBQs and extra pairs of hands at Tree Day events hosted by councils, schools and community groups.\nIn 2012, the partnership between Lions and Planet Ark's National Tree Day takes on a new significance. With the Lions International Million Trees Planting Campaign now in full swing, there has never been a better time to host a tree planting event. And by registering the event with Planet Ark as a National Tree Day activity, you will not only be contributing to the Million Trees campaign, you will also be taking part in Australia's largest community tree planting and nature care event.\nWhile National Tree Day 2012 will be on Sunday 29th July, you can register a Tree Day event for any date during the year. Planet Ark can support you by promoting your event on the National Tree Day website and providing you with access to step-by-step guides, adaptable posters, site signage and other useful resources.",

What I was doing inside seemed much harder than what they were doing outside. My idea is that if I take enough classes, eventually I\u2019ll learn something.

        "raw_content": "A friend of mine, who is also a widower, shared my blog post about \u201cA Widow\u2019s Romantic Predicament\u201d and received several comments asking if \u201che has moved on\u201d. I replied that we really don\u2019t move on, we just learn how to carry on with their memories in our heart.\nSadly, until you have loss a loved one, there is a lot of misinformation about grief. The biggest one for me, is that you\u2019re not just mourning for the loss of a loved one but you\u2019re also mourning the loss of who you were with the loved one. You lose the life that was created together. You lose half of who you were all of those years. You also lose all of the hopes and dreams you had for and with your loved one.\nAs you try to learn how to carry on with those memories, your perceptions of the world around you changes. Everything you once believed in also changes. Your belief in God, your security in the world, and your expectations about life being predictable and fair is no longer the same.\nHowever, the world around you still evolves as it used to. When families and friends think its time that you move on or thinks that you already have, assumed that everything goes on like it was before the loved one has passed. The reality is that nothing is the same as it was before. What was important before, no longer is. Other things in life becomes more important. A lot of times, it will seems like its a \u201cmid life crisis\u201d type of behavior to the friends and families. To us, we learned that life is precious and should not be taken for granted.\nAs my friend, Jeff wrote in a poem, \u201cI am driven by death to live\u201d\nPosted in UncategorizedTagged BBBC 2017, Blogger Challenge, lIfe after grief, misinformation\n7 thoughts on \u201cLife after Grief\u2026\u201d\nDon Dickinson says:\n\u201c\u2026.also mourning the loss of who you were\u2026\u201d\nYes it is\u2026.it\u2019s all of the little things that we were when they were around.\nI am so sorry for your loss. I am so impressed with the sensitive and thoughtful approach you have taken to process your feelings and move on with your life, while still honoring the memory of your husband. Hugs.\nThank you\u2026it has been a challenging year for me to come to terms with the emotions that I have been feeling. This blogger challenge has helped me to formulate the feelings and to be able to put it into words. In another word, able to \u201cput my fingers on it\u201d. I have received several gratitudes from other widower to finally to say what they have been feelings.\nIt\u2019s wonderful to be able to express all those emotions!\nLike Lynne, I admire the way you\u2019ve been processing your grief, figuring out your emotions, where/how things fit, etc. I\u2019m not sure how well I would do in a situation like yours. Thanks for sharing.\nSometimes I wonder if I\u2019m holding myself together at all. However, I just take it one day at a time. That\u2019s all I can do sometimes.",

An American rock band founded by System of a Down member Daron Malakian. Structured , most of the mixed songs include genres of traditional Armenian, thrash, alternative, experimental and metal/rock similar to System of a Down\u2019s style of music. This album takes SOAD\u2019s music into an entirely different direction. The approach in taking more influence on rock sound than metal make this album more appealing to more people.\nDaron Malakian wrote every single track on this album. Also Malakian has said he \u201ccould release ten solo records tomorrow.\u201d if he could. Being so skilled he knows how to play many instruments. For this band he plays the lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass guitar in studio, keyboards in studio, drums in studio and is the lead vocals. To add more to his impressive skills as a musician, his voice is one of the most original voices I have heard. It goes along perfectly with the rhythms structured into the songs he creates.\nTrack listing for album:\nSerious (Recommended)\nFunny (Recommended)\nExploding/Reloading (Recommended)\nStoner Hate (Recommended)\nWorld Long Gone\nKill Each Other/Live Forever\nChemicals (Recommended)\nUniverse (Recommended)\nCute Machines (Recommended)\nWhoring Street\nThey Say (Recommended)\nQuality and consistent album. If I could make music it would be the styles similar to this album. Being on hiatus for a very long time, there is good new for fans of the band. On April 16th, 2018, Malakian announced through Instagram that their first single/video from the second album will be released on April 23rd. I will be listening to that while enjoying how they developed from the first debut album. Overall this album is strong in its own personality. I recommend this album to everyone who likes System of a Down and chiller metal worth checking out.\nDancing in the acid rain\nThat\u2019s falling on the streets of shame\nYou never seen the sky like this\nYou never wanna die like this \u2013 Universe \u2013 Scars on Broadway, Scars on Broadway\nWhy do I keep Making New Drafts?",

        "raw_content": "How to communicate with the rich diversity of Spanish speakers in the U.S.\nSpanish is the second most widely-spoken language in the world (after Mandarin Chinese) with more than 400 million native speakers in 31 countries. It is also the third most widely used language on the internet. The United States alone has approximately 37 million Spanish speakers, making it the world\u2019s second-largest Spanish-speaking population.\nWhat makes the Spanish-speaking population in the U.S. unique is that it is made up of people from several different countries in Latin America. This multitude of backgrounds means that Spanish speakers in the U.S. do not share one culture or dialect, so it may be best to use a \u201cgeneric\u201d or \u201cuniversal\u201d Latin American Standard Spanish when translating for the greater U.S. market. Translating into this \u201cgeneric\u201d variety helps to avoid regional or dialectal terminology so content can be understood by Spanish speakers of any background. In 2015, VIA\u2019s linguistic teams translated over five million words into this \u201cLatAm\u201d Spanish.\nOn the other hand, if you know the country of origin for your audience, consider using a specific variety of Spanish (such as Spanish-Mexico) to better serve your customers from those countries. When discussing translation projects with your linguist, make sure to communicate information about the target locale of your audience. If the translation is directed at patients in Southern California (where Spanish from Mexico is more common) versus at parents of school children in New York city (where there is a mixture of origins including Caribbean and South American countries), the word choices and eventual output may be different.\nFood is one subject where this happens regularly. For instance, there are various terms used in Latin America for \u201cbeans\u201d. Because of the different origins of Spanish speakers in the U.S., it is not uncommon for reviewers to have feedback like \u201cWe do not call peas \u2018ch\u00edcharo\u2019 in my country, but \u2018guisantes\u2019.\u201d\nThe best way to address this potential issue is to establish a glossary early on, and get consensus on the correct dialect and terminology before the project begins. Check out this sample English-Spanish Terminology Guide we created to help you get started.\nAlso, keep in mind that English to Spanish translations expand 25% on average. If you have forms or brochures with tight formatting, trim the content to gain whitespace or work with your project manager to come up with alternative formatting solutions before the translation begins.",

        "raw_content": "When I was writing Austral, the idea in the next century or so parts of Antarctica might become warm enough to support forests and fjords was a deliberate heightening of climatic trends: setting the novel in a near future that otherwise hadn't drifted too far from the present meant that the narrative could keep the effects of climate change in the foreground. Three years later, things have changed. A group of scientists has suggested that even if we're able to keep the rise in average global temperature to less than 2 \u00b0C above pre-industrial levels, as per the Paris Accord, it may not be enough to prevent a catastrophic domino effect that could push the planet's climate system towards a Hothouse Earth. And throughout the summer of 2018, catastrophe and climate change have been inextricably linked in the news headlines, suggesting that some kind of tipping point may have been reached. That some kind of new normal has been established. Higher than average temperatures across global land and ocean surfaces, devastating wildfires in Canada, California and Europe, the breakup of old, multilayer ice in previously frozen waters in the Arctic, and much else, have helped to drive home the idea that global warming is real, with serious consequences in the here and now. It's even informing the fake news fantasies of far-right pill-peddling hucksters, who claim that weather-controlling weapons based in Antarctica are firing powerful energy beams that can split hurricanes in two. Somehow, Senator John Kerry and a buried alien city may be involved. I missed a trick or two, there.\nNot for the first time, the present has overtaken the speculative scenarios of science fiction. Closed the weirdness gap between now and what might be. At the end of The Sheep Look Up, John Brunner's multistranded novel about environmental and societal collapse, the smoke from the bonfire of America civilisation drifts across the Atlantic to Ireland; this summer, smoke and other pollutants from extensive wildfires in Canada reached northwest Europe. It's hard, now, to imagine any kind of plausible near future that doesn't foreground the effects of climate change; it's increasingly difficult to distinguish headlines in the happening world from scenarios lifted from fictional dystopias and catastrophes.\nBut although climate change is reshaping the happening world and casting a long shadow across the future, its endpoint remains unclear, and there's still space for speculation about how we might survive it, and how it might change us. Kim Stanley Robinson's heterotopic New York 2140 and the hypercapitalism of Sam J. Miller's Blackfish City are interesting, and interesting different, explorations of how society might be reshaped by climate change. N.K. Jemisen's triple Hugo winning Broken Earth trilogy may be set on a far-future Earth where magic operates, but its magic system is at service to a kind of geoengineering, and its plot turns on the lengths to which people must go and the sacrifices they must make to save a world broken by catastrophe: hard lessons that have critical relevance to our present predicament. The future may not be what it once was, but creating human-shaped possibilities is still a good way of discovering what we think is important, here in the present. And of reminding ourselves that any new normal is only temporary; that there is no constant now, except for change.\nAlmost 20 years ago I read about the methane just waiting to burst forth in Siberia.\nEither we surrender the tropics and sub-tropics, or we consider geoengineering. Probably will make things worse, though.",

        "title": "Much to think about | In-building systems are effective, but their implementation requires careful planning",
        "raw_content": "Much to think about\nAs specialized mobile radio systems, or SMRs, gained popularity in the 1980s and high-performance portable radio transceiver units for these systems became\nAs specialized mobile radio systems, or SMRs, gained popularity in the 1980s and high-performance portable radio transceiver units for these systems became available, an upsurge of usage took place. However, it was quickly found that buildings, tunnels and areas that were deeply RF shaded from the base station site suffered from intermittent to a complete lack of coverage. The use of unidirectional or bidirectional filter-amplifiers to enhance coverage has provided an effective, yet relatively simple, answer to the problem.\nIn-building RF coverage solutions are needed primarily because many cities and counties mandate specific coverage levels to ensure that first responders can communicate inside a structure. Other factors that necessitate the use of in-building systems include the antenna inefficiencies of portable radios and the compromise of portable propagation at VHF due to the body\u2019s absorption of RF energy. Additionally, mines and tunnels require RF coverage for safety and productivity reasons.\nBuilding owners and operators realize many benefits from the installation of in-building systems. These include operational efficiency; the ability to respond quickly to tenant calls; improved tenant safety and security, such as wireless coverage in parking garages and stairwells; and improved mechanisms to track and record service calls in real time. Also, when wireless sensors for building equipment are added to an in-building system, costs are reduced and energy usage is monitored and controlled more effectively.\nThe basic system consists of placing an antenna array in the clear, aimed at the donor radio site to provide access to the communications system (also known as the air interface). Using lossy radiating cable and/or coaxial transmission line with properly located antennas throughout the areas to be covered represents the basic distribution aspect of the system. For longer runs, fiber optic backhaul and distributed antenna systems provide distribution of the desired signal.\nSystems can be designed for more than one band. Customized engineering is required on virtually every system that is configured and furnished.\nThe use of RF/fiber optic converters to extend system range in a campus application or for use over great distances is increasing, typically where a line-of-sight path does not exist, the RF signal is low or interference is an issue, such as in an urban area. Note that interference also may present obstacles to using a common air interface for accessing the remote repeater(s) or system.\nThere are several operational and technical aspects to consider when working with management to implement an in-building system. For instance, what is the time frame for the project and who is the purchaser of the system? What entity will act as the project developer \u2014 a homeowners\u2019 association, a private corporation, a government entity, a cellular/PCS/iDEN operator, or a neutral-host (NH) service provider? (Knowing who will be paying for the NH systems can be particularly challenging.)\nThere are many examples of locations where in-building systems have been implemented for public safety. These include college campuses and schools, where implementation has become more prevalent due to student safety and discipline issues; industrial complexes; manufacturing plants, which offer a large market opportunity for radio dealers; military installations, airport hangars and related facilities; stadiums and sports arenas; mines; transportation hubs and terminals; and jails and prisons.\nNH systems are being used in casinos, airports, convention centers, shopping malls and hospitals. In fact, the National Public Safety Telecommunications Council\u2019s in-building working group technology committee noted in a November 2007 report that \u201chospital wireless systems providers are also interested in the possibility of adding patient monitoring, hospital administration and security to an in-building RF distribution system.\u201d Office buildings, tunnels and public transportation are both public-safety and NH applications.\nThere are other important questions. For instance, who ultimately will own and maintain the system after implementation? Also, is the in-building system part of a new construction? It often is assumed that running cables or fiber is easier when the building doesn\u2019t have the walls or ceiling in place. While this is true for the most part, there may be project management, contractor (union) and sub-contractor issues to consider.\nIf the system is going into an existing building, logistics will be a major concern. Installers might have to work after normal business hours or be especially mindful of not interrupting those conducting business, and working in restricted-access areas may offer other issues.\nOn the technical side, running coaxial cables can be quite challenging, particularly when they have to go through firewalls. In contrast, fiber optic transport allows the transmission of the signal over great distances with minimal loss. Note, however, that such systems require optical-to-RF converters that require power and a corresponding antenna system. Fiber optic systems also need a secure location for the converter rack.\nIn addition, all in-building systems must be designed for public-safety and carrier operation and must have emergency backup power, including the optical-to-RF converter rack, to ensure uninterrupted interoperation.\nGenerally, it\u2019s safe to anticipate that additional users and operators eventually will want to piggyback onto most in-building systems, particularly if it will be an NH system designed to accommodate multiple carriers, such as cellular, PCS and SMR. In this circumstance, fiber optic distribution may be an easier way to add different services.\nWhen a need for in-building coverage is uncovered, invariably the issue of cost will be raised and become a big factor in system design. A plethora of variables will affect system cost, starting with the complexity of the design. The following represent just a few of the many variables that must be considered.\nVertical risers for penetrating floors add labor cost.\nHorizontal offset cable runs should be avoided when going floor to floor.\nPlenum-rated cables will greatly increase material costs.\nMultiple bands and services can greatly increase installation cost.\nCost breakdown typically will be one-third for equipment and two-thirds for installation and systems optimization.\nCosts can range from $0.30 to $5 per square foot, or more. For example, a 100,000-square-foot building that is essentially open manufacturing or warehousing with few walls and partitions, and which achieves amplification using a single UHF frequency pair, could cost $30,000. In contrast, a 400,000-square-foot office complex with multiple bands and services may cost $1 million or more. Larger systems for airports, shopping malls, hospitals and entertainment venues are among the most costly installations. Multibuilding campuses such as hospitals, colleges, universities and military installations require much planning and design before price can be established.\nJust as there are many variables to consider when deciding where and how to implement an in-building system, there are myriad steps that must be taken to bring the project to completion. (See sidebar.) For example, indicating on building prints the current signal levels, as well as those that are needed at specific locations in the structure that are considered crucial, will greatly aid system design and engineering.\nIn addition, system engineers need to know whether city, county or federal regulations require minimum RF coverage for first responders. Moreover, some fire codes also may specify fire-retardant cable. You will need to provide a copy of the documents as applicable. This is critical information for the system engineer.\nAlan Leffler is with RF filtering and amplification vendor EMR Corp. A 35-year radio industry veteran, Leffler is a Radio Club of America Fellow.\nIra Wiesenfeld, P.E., is a consulting engineer who has worked on commercial radio systems for more than 40 years. Both hold amateur radio licenses.\nKEY STEPS IN ENGINEERING AN IN-BUILDING SYSTEM\nIdentify signal levels (in dBm) at the outside pickup antenna location.\nIdentify the transmitter output power and the distance to the donor site. (Hint: Look at the FCC license for this information.)\nDetermine whether any barriers exist between the transmitter antenna and the site, such as buildings, structures, hills or mountains.\nProvide building diagrams and layouts that are marked with current and desired signal levels, in dBm, at crucial in-building locations (-85 dBm is typical).\nDefine the footprint of the building, particularly the number of floors to be covered.\nIdentify construction materials used in the building, such as concrete or reinforced concrete, wood and plywood, and the type of window glass (reflected, mirrored, dual pane).\nTags: Wireless Networks",

We are asked to reflect mankind. It is our own personal interpretation of that, and it doesn\u2019t mean you are going to agree with that interpretation, or even like it, but I\u2019m so trilled that you agree with my interpretations,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI\u2019ve said this before, but the truth is to be or not to be, and I\u2019m glad that you allow me to be.\u201d\nGondry began his introduction to \u201cMood Indigo\u201d by saying he considered himself lucky for many things in his career, for example working with Icelandic singer Bjork, and having been asked to adapt Boris Vian\u2019s novel \u201cFroth on a Daydream,\u201d but he said he was unlucky that Audrey Tautou, who stars in \u201cMood Indigo\u201d alongside Romain Duris, had to cancel her appearance at the fest opening.\nHe claimed that Tautou, whose career break-through was playing the well-meaning innocent in \u201cAmelie,\u201d had fallen off her bike and cut her chin.\n\u201cShe has a huge scab on her chin.

They are pumping out expensive series that work at home, and increasingly find an audience abroad.\n\u201cThat creativity was always there in international drama, maybe it was just slightly ignored in the past,\u201d says Jason Simms, a former Fox executive who is now director of drama and comedy at Sky\u2019s production and distribution unit Sky Vision. It recently gave buyers an early peek at Sky Deutschland\u2019s buzzy pre-apocalyptic series \u201cEight Days\u201d at a London showcase. \u201cThe niche services prove the demand is there. In an overall market that is fragmenting, the that fact you can build loyalty among a solid group of people, even if it isn\u2019t big free-TV levels of viewership, is something worth going after.\u201d\nWalter Presents bears the name of Walter Iuzzolino. A leading authority on international drama, he curates and presents programming on the service, which runs as a linear block and on-demand service in the U.K. He freely admits Walter is a boutique proposition and international drama a specialist area, but one worth mining. \u201cIt is gaining commercial traction, but with a global niche audience,\u201d he says. \u201cThat audience is dedicated and loves the content.\u201d\nBeta Film shops German series \u201cBabylon Berlin\u201d and has a pedigree of selling international drama. Managing director Moritz von Kruedener says the German company is selling to an increasing number of markets, although rarely to mainstream English-language networks. \u201cWe haven\u2019t had the luck to bring a German or Italian production to U.S. network primetime and there\u2019s probably a long way still to go,\u201d he said at a Berlin Drama Days session moderated by Variety in February.\nAt the same event, FremantleMedia\u2019s head of drama, Sarah Doole, noted the barriers to mainstream U.S. go beyond language: \u201cI don\u2019t think any British producer has sold a show to an NBC or ABC in its original form,\u201d she said.\nIt is a different story on premium cable. Starz has acquired Norwegian mystery drama \u201cMonster,\u201d and, with its extensive operations outside of the U.S., HBO is leading the charge.\nAt Mipcom in October, CEO Richard Plepler disclosed that it would run HBO Europe originals on its U.S. streaming service. \u201cRichard came to see the value for viewers of being able to offer the work from HBO Europe and Asia to an American audience,\u201d says Anthony Root, HBO Europe\u2019s programming chief. \u201cAre these going to have \u2018Game of Thrones\u2019 level viewership? No, but the point is, there is an increasing number of people who enjoy watching shows that do not come from their own culture.\u201d\nHBO Europe makes originals from 10 countries in 10 languages. That drive now includes the Nordics, where filmmaker Lucas Moodysson is making comedy-drama \u201cGosta,\u201d which he says will be \u201ca mix of comedy and Dostoevsky.\u201d HBO Espana also has its first original, \u201cPatria,\u201d an original adaptation of Fernando Aramburu\u2019s eponymous novel.\n\u201cMy Brilliant Friend,\u201d however, is the potential gamechanger. Produced by FremantleMedia\u2019s Wildside for HBO and Rai, it is an adaptation of the Elena Ferrante bestselling novels. It will go out on the Italian pubcaster and in the premium cabler\u2019s main schedule in the U.S. in its original 1950s Neapolitan dialect.\nPubcaster Rai is playing a key role in bringing Italian-flavored drama to the world with English-language productions \u201cIn the Name of the Rose\u201d and \u201cMedici.\u201d\n\u201cI think TV series can build the identity of our country even better than film and add an international dimension,\u201d says Rai drama chief Eleonora Andreatta. \u201cRai wishes to play a fundamental role in the development of the international presence of the Italian industry.\u201d\nAdapting \u201cMy Brilliant Friend\u201d with HBO is a milestone in terms of Rai\u2019s overseas ambitions. \u201cAs the public broadcaster, we could not ignore this extraordinary all-Italian success,\u201d Andreatta says. \u201cWhen producers Wildside and Fandango proposed making a series from Elena Ferrante\u2019s novels, we had no hesitation.\u201d\nIf premium pay is a growing international outlet, the streamers continue to change the game. Amazon and Netflix became big buyers of global drama as they launched around the world and sought to localize, but the buying boom may be coming to an end. As Netflix pushes into non-English originals with the likes of \u201cNarcos\u201d and \u201cDark,\u201d and Amazon does the same with \u201cYou Are Wanted\u201d and \u201cDeutsch les Landes,\u201d they are buying fewer finished series, sellers report. The SVOD players heated the market up, but the prices and that heightened level of demand have fallen away, several sources say.\n\u201cThis is a niche that doesn\u2019t justify \u2018Homeland\u2019 prices,\u201d says one influential buyer who asked not to be named. \u201cProducers and distributors had developed a sense of the worth of their shows that was misleading. There was a bubble, but there has been a recalibration of the economics.\u201d\n\u201cDark,\u201d meanwhile, is a bona fide international hit for Netflix, with 90% of viewing of the German-language mystery drama coming from outside Germany. A second season has been commissioned. Netflix offers series such as Sky Germany\u2019s Tom Tykwer period drama \u201cBabylon Berlin\u201d with subtitles and dubbed, although some observers have questioned the quality of the dub. \u201cIt would be a dream if dubbed European content was successful in the U.S., it would change the game totally,\u201d says one European distributor, although most agree that dream is unlikely to be realized.\nWhat is common to international dramas breaking through is often edgy and dark material \u2014 story-of-the-week procedurals don\u2019t cut it. \u201cThe audience is looking for strong, serialized stories and the rapid growth of SVOD and binge-viewing has helped in terms of this kind of storytelling,\u201d says Francoise Guyonnet, head of TV at Studiocanal, which heads to MIPTV with new Canal Plus original, crime thriller \u201cNox.\u201d\nThe Nordic crusaders who pioneered a wave of dark serialized programming now have competition for global eyeballs. \u201cThe Killing\u201d set a brooding template for Nordic noir that was followed by the likes of \u201cBron,\u201d \u201cMamon\u201d and \u201cModus.\u201d The light is now beginning to creep in. \u201cI think we are moving to a new brand, Nordic Light,\u201d says NRK drama boss Ivar Kohn. NRK has \u201cHomegrown,\u201d about a female soccer coach. \u201cNordic Light has the same DNA and qualities [as noir] but it is not dark crime. It\u2019s broader and we are getting a better response from our audience.\u201d\nGermany, Italy, Spain and Scandinavia sit at the top table of international drama, but others are looking to join them. Brazilian media giant Globo is known for its soapy telenovelas, but has moved into series with show such as \u201cJailers\u201d with some overseas success, notably the recent sale of \u201cMerciless\u201d to RTL Crime in Germany.\nIsrael is already established as a formats hotspot and Keshet\u2019s \u201cPrisoners of War\u201d inspired Showtime hit \u201cHomeland.\u201d Distributors are now bringing Hebrew-language fare to market. At MIPTV Endemol Shine Intl. has Reshet series \u201cHarem,\u201d about mysterious healer who lives in Tel Aviv and has 32 wives and 89 children. Banijay Rights has Israeli-produced crime-meets-vampire drama \u201cJudah.\u201d\nBanijay also has French, Norwegian, Swedish and Welsh fare on its books. Caroline Torrance, head of drama, says she is looking at Flemish and Dutch series, a category that is emerging, with Netflix recently buying ZDFE-distributed psychological thriller \u201cTabula Rasa.\u201d Iceland is also proving an emerging drama production territory, with shows such as Baltasar Korm\u00e1kur\u2019s \u201cTrapped\u201d a success, and Bavaria Fiction and Yellow Film & TV\u2019s \u201cArctic Circle,\u201d about a deadly virus discovered at a crime scene, coming through.\nBavaria Fiction has just wrapped filming on Sky\u2019s \u201cDas Boot,\u201d which took to the seas with a premium $32.8 million budget. Filmed in German, French and English, it is in the vanguard of a new wave of multilingual international drama. \u201cWhile the multi-language element to these shows suits the co-production partners very well for their local channels, it is the universal themes in the series that will see them travel way beyond their primary audiences,\u201d Bavaria\u2019s Polter says. \u201cThe most important thing is for the concept not to feel forced.\u201d\nTorrance says several multi-language projects have come to her attention in the past year. It will have \u201cStraightforward,\u201d a Danish-Kiwi series that is in production at MIPTV, and \u201cWisting,\u201d the drama that will recently added \u201cThe Matrix\u201d star Carrie-Anne Moss to its cast.\nBanijay\u2019s French epic \u201cVersailles\u201d is heading into its third season, with a Canneseries launch, and although the distributor\u2019s catalog is packed with global fare, the story of France\u2019s Louis XIV was filmed in English.\n\u201cOvation is the U.S. channel for \u2018Versailles\u2019 and I don\u2019t think they would have looked at it if it were in French because it wouldn\u2019t work for their basic cable audience,\u201d Torrance says. \u201cIn the U.K. it may have found a home on [arts and culture net] BBC 4, but not on [general entertainment channel] BBC 2.\u201d\nAs with its German counterpart Beta, ZDF Enterprises is well-versed in the distribution of non-English series, often in ZDFE\u2019s case with shows from Scandinavia. But in an attempt to reach the biggest buyers and channels, Beta and ZDFE have teamed with \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d producer Frank Doelger to launch Intaglio Films. It will create English-language scripted content for the international market.\n\u201cLilyhammer\u201d producer Viafilm wants the best of both worlds. It shot NRK Norway\u2019s 10-part drama series \u201cOne Night,\u201d in Norwegian and English back-to-back. It added a few days to the schedule, but Federation, which is selling it at MIPTV, now has a version for buyers that would not go for the Norwegian original.\nThe language lessons are clearly paying off. While U.S. network TV is not within reach, cable and SVOD are open for business, and with viewers increasingly fluent in the language of international drama, programmers are paying attention.",

        "raw_content": "The Real Sin of Michael Steele\n\"This was a war of Obama's choosing. This is not something the United States has actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in.\"\nStrictly speaking, Republican Party Chair Michael Steele was way off base when he made this remark at a closed-door meeting of party contributors in Connecticut.\nFor the war began in 2001 under George W. Bush and was backed by almost all Americans, who collectively cheered the downfall of the Taliban and the rout of al-Qaida from its sanctuary in Afghanistan.\nYet, Steele was not entirely wrong.\nToday, a majority of Americans do not believe the nine-year war in Afghanistan is any longer worth the rising cost in blood and money. And by declaring it a \"war of necessity\" and tripling U.S. forces there, this president has made it \"Obama's war\" every bit as much as LBJ in 1964 and 1965 made Vietnam \"Johnson's War.\"\nWhile Steele has spent every waking hour since his words hit the airwaves explaining, and declaring his commitment to victory, of far more interest is the alacrity with which neoconservatives piled on the chairman, demanding his resignation, while senators castigated him for remarks unacceptable for a Republican Party leader.\nWilliam Kristol's demand for Steele's resignation was echoed by Charles Krauthammer and Liz Cheney, daughter of the vice president. From Afghanistan, Steele was attacked by Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain, who suggested he think again about his capacity to lead the Republican National Committee.\nBehind the swiftness and severity of the attacks on one of their own by Republican pundits and politicians are motives more serious and sinister than exasperation at another gaffe by Michael Steele.\nThe War Party is conducting this pre-emptive strike on Steele to send a message to dissenters. In Krauthammer's phrase, it is now a \"capital offense\" for a Republican leader not to support the Obama troop surge and the Obama-Petraeus policy.\nYet, a majority of Americans oppose the Afghan war. And the point made by Steele about the futility of fighting in Afghanistan has been made by columnists George Will and Tony Blankley, ex-Rep. Joe Scarborough, Ron Paul, and antiwar conservatives and moderates.\nWhen exactly did supporting Obama's war policy become a litmus test for loyal Republicans?\nWhat the War Party is up to here is a naked attempt to impose its orthodoxy, about the threat of \"Islamofascism\" and the Long War, on the entire GOP, 28 months before a presidential election.\nRepublicans of all persuasions should recoil at such arrogance.\nFor whence does it come, if not the same hawks and neocons who beat the drums for a unnecessary war on Iraq that cost 4,000 U.S. dead, 35,000 wounded and $700 billion, while making widows and orphans of half a million Iraqis?\nAnd what was that all about? Invading and occupying a country that never attacked us \u2014 to strip it of weapons it did not have.\nCertainly, as the last nominee of the Republican Party, McCain can claim to be titular leader, as could George W. Bush, or Dick Cheney, Mitch McConnell or John Boehner.\nBut, if memory serves, the Bush-McCain party was repudiated in landslides in 2006 and 2008, giving Democrats the presidency, the House and a veto-proof Senate. And high among the reasons the country turned on the GOP is that, like Harry Truman and LBJ, the Bush-McCain GOP marched us into wars they could not win and could not end.\nThis campaign to censure and remove Steele is designed to censor debate and stifle dissent on Obama's war policy, as long as Obama's war policy closely tracks the agenda of the War Party.\nShould Obama declare that he intends to stand by his deadline and begin pulling U.S. troops out of Afghanistan by July 2011, those Republicans today accusing Steele of not supporting the troops and undercutting the president in wartime would themselves begin undercutting the president.\nIn November, the Republican Party will make gains. But the party will be deluding itself if it assumes this means America wants a return to the interventionist policies that brought us the Iraq and Afghan wars. The country will simply be saying: We reject Obama's liberalism as emphatically as we rejected Bush neoconservatism.\nMost Americans today approve of the agreed-upon end of U.S. combat operations in Iraq by August and removal of all U.S. troops by the end of 2011, just as they support an American withdrawal from Afghanistan, starting a year from now.\nBut to contend that those who want the withdrawals to begin sooner, or those who want them to begin later, are unpatriotic and do not support the troops is itself unpatriotic.\nThe time for Republicans to decide on what the foreign policy of the party and a new administration should be is in the primaries of 2012. Until then, let every voice be heard, including that of Michael Steele.",

        "raw_content": "More Than Just a Fence\nKen Clements writes on Innovation On Demand\nInstead of building a wall or fence on the USA-Mexico border just for security purposes, a solar array structure can be built that also provides electric power to the region and helps raise the standard of living.\nI suspect that immigration restriction will become much more realistic in the US long term if it is part of a package that is popular in countries that are currently sources of immigration. I see little evidence that current US immigration policies have done much for the Mexican population as a whole. The benefits of mass immigration and policies like NAFTA have been restricted to a tiny, wealthy minority in Mexico. It really shouldn't be that unrealistic to get the Mexican people to accept a sane immigration policy. I'm glad to see others working along lines that might make that help happen.",

        "title": "Survey: AR/VR startups are leaving international money on the table | VentureBeat",
        "raw_content": "Survey: AR/VR startups are leaving international money on the table\nTim Merel@DigiCapitalistIsabelle Hierholtz@DigiCapitalista\t October 13, 2018 7:15 AM\nAbove: An HTC Vive VR demo at the Microsoft Store.\nThe bulk of AR/VR startups aren\u2019t selling outside their own backyards, at a time when growing revenue and extending financial runways have become critical to survival. So while there is money to be had internationally, many are simply leaving it on the table. While Chinese computer vision/AR investment grew 3x to $3.9 billion over the last 12 months, in stark contrast North American VC investment in AR/VR startups dropped below $120 million in Q3 2018. So North American startups (63 percent of revenue generated domestically) not making money in Asia (only 11 percent of revenue coming from the largest revenue region) or Europe (just 16 percent of revenue from the second largest revenue region) could be putting themselves at risk.\nDigi-Capital and Augmented World Expo (AWE) surveyed the global XR (AR/VR) community in September with selected highlights below. The full results are in Digi-Capital\u2019s new 300 page Augmented/Virtual Reality Report Q4 2018, with all market data/analytics in Digi-Capital\u2019s 500,000+ data point AR/VR/XR Analytics Platform. Digi-Capital Managing Director Tim Merel will present the results and more at AWE Europe on October 18th. (To participate in the next survey, email info [at] digi-capital.com)\nAbove: Where are AR/VR startups making money?\nNorth American companies generate limited revenue in Europe (15 percent), which Digi-Capital\u2019s Analytics Platform forecasts growing larger than North America this year. Despite its scale, Asia is a source of only 11 percent of North American companies\u2019 revenue.\nEuropean companies\u2019 international ambitions are North America-focused (18 percent), also with limited revenue from Asia (9 percent). Given high levels of competition in North America, an increased Asian focus might be an effective complement to European companies\u2019 international development.\nAsian companies\u2019 revenues outside home markets favor the highly competitive North American (19 percent) market over Europe (12 percent). While Europe holds significant potential for Asian companies, managing European fragmentation requires experienced local partners. This in itself could be an opportunity for pan-European players to help Asian counterparts, building both sets of businesses in partnership.\nOutside domestic markets, Latin American companies are focused on North America (32 percent) due to geographical proximity and scale. But for companies in this region with international potential, Asia (3 percent) and Europe (6 percent) are significantly under-indexed.\nCompanies based in the Middle East and Africa appear to be truly international, with their own region MEA (33 percent) indexing similarly to North America (32 percent). Asia (18 percent) and Europe (15 percent) also make up a significant portion of revenue. This could reflect the relatively smaller potential of the domestic MEA market, requiring companies to focus their growth efforts abroad.\nThe early stage of the industry was highlighted by many of the rest of the findings, as well as a strong enterprise/B2B focus. Looking forward to the next year, participants gave clear priorities for growth and roadmaps to build their businesses and scale the industry as a whole.\nThe survey saw more than half of respondents from startups (53 percent), as well as corporates (15 percent) and service providers (15 percent). One third (32 percent) of respondents were CEOs, who together with CXOs/Corporate VPs (42 percent in total) makes the survey primarily the view from the top of the industry.\nMobile AR (76 percent) matters to more companies than smartglasses (65 percent) or VR (62 percent) today, and in that market ARKit (77 percent) and ARCore (73 percent) featured far more prominently than other platforms. Companies in the smartglasses market are most focused on Microsoft HoloLens (75 percent) and Magic Leap One (57 percent), with other smartglasses platforms indexing significantly lower. Unsurprisingly for VR, headsets from HTC (73 percent), Facebook/Oculus (70 percent) and Microsoft (53 percent) came in strongly, but surprisingly Google (39 percent) and Sony (29 percent) platforms did not have as strong a response (Sony\u2019s underindexing could be due to survey participants being broader than just games companies).\nIn terms of end users, at this stage more industry companies are focused on enterprise (60 percent) than consumer (44 percent) or B2B (44 percent) customers (who incorporate what they\u2019re buying into their own products/services to sell to others). Participants said that enterprise customers\u2019 number one reason for buying is to improve productivity (70 percent), as opposed to B2B customers where this purchasing driver indexed lowest (44 percent). For B2B customers, competitive advantage (76 percent) indexed much higher.\nThis difference suggests that enterprise customers might care more about efficiency (and potentially be more price-sensitive), where B2B customers could be more focused on effectiveness (and potentially be less price sensitive). Unsurprisingly, consumer focused companies say their customers buy mainly to have fun (54 percent), learn (47 percent) and explore (44 percent).\nWhen it comes to business models, enterprise/B2B (61 percent) is the standout. However, combining all the individual consumer focused business models gives a larger overall response with significant overlap. When comparing current business model concentration with Digi-Capital\u2019s actual and forecast revenue, \u201cBlue Ocean\u201d opportunities appear in ecommerce (15 percent) and advertising (22 percent), by virtue of being less crowded today with high revenue growth potential in coming years.\nIn the consumer market, there is significant concentration for app store (in-app purchase/premium apps) driven companies around entertainment, in particular games (56 percent) and non-games entertainment (56 percent). The next largest category by far is education (49 percent). Breakout apps in non-entertainment categories (such as navigation with Google Lens) could change the industry\u2019s focus in future.\nUnsurprisingly, more than half of advertising driven companies are focused on entertainment (64 percent), media (60 percent), retail (59 percent) and automotive (54 percent) advertiser categories. Ecommerce driven companies overindex in media (48 percent), followed by consumer electronics, health/personal care, furniture, automotive, toys/hobby, clothing, food/drink and office equipment.\nGiven the early stage of the market, some enterprise focused companies operate in single enterprise verticals, including education (50 percent), manufacturing/resources (45 percent) and construction/real estate (42 percent). TMT (Tech/Media/Telecom), retail, health care, transportation, and utilities also index strongly. Perhaps surprisingly given their revenue potential, government \u2014 including military \u2014 (28 percent) and financial services (16 percent) did not index highly.\nThe early stage of the industry is reflected in the distribution of annual revenue per company for startups producing less than $1 million (56 percent) and $1 million to $5 million (15 percent), with startups between $5 million and $100 million indexing much lower. Corporates and later-stage startups delivering over $100 million revenue make up the remaining 14 percent of companies in the survey.\nParticipating companies gave a clear priority order of what they think the industry needs to do to scale, including critical use cases (53 percent) and active users (50 percent), as well as lower priorities for critical hardware, critical apps and more. The market recognizes that it\u2019s all about the user, but also realizes that the ecosystem must come together as an integrated whole to scale.\nParticipants were clear about what their own companies need to do to achieve scale, including new products/services (35 percent), bigger customer/client budgets (32 percent), more effective go-to-market (29 percent) and more effective industry partners (27 percent). Better ROI from their own products/services (18 percent) indexed surprisingly low, as productivity is a key driver for enterprise customers.\nWhen asked about their roadmaps for the next 12 months, the No. 1 priority is strategic partnerships (58 percent). This indicates that early stage companies realize that both recognized brands and route to market could be critical for success in the next stage of market development.\nThe early stage of the market came out strongly, with the industry refreshingly realistic about today\u2019s market and what it needs to do to scale. While startups remain focused on addressing their own pieces of the puzzle, there is a general consensus that platforms like Apple, Google, Facebook, Alibaba and others need to become more effective leaders for the market to realize its full potential.\nTim Merel is managing director of AR/VR and games adviser Digi-Capital.\nIsabelle Hierholtz, User Strategy Director, Digi-Capital.

        "raw_content": "Home Businesses State of the City address given at monthly chamber luncheon\nState of the City address given at monthly chamber luncheon\nMayor Ashley Curry gives the State of the City address at the Vestavia Hills Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon on Oct. 9.\n\u201cWhy am I here?\u201d That\u2019s the question Mayor Ashley Curry posed at the monthly Chamber of Commerce luncheon on Oct. 9. His answer was simple: because 30 years ago, he and his wife decided to make Vestavia Hills their home and purchased a house within city limits.\nHe was specifically at the luncheon, however, to give his State of the City address to those who were in attendance.\nCurry began by reviewing the crest of the city, pointing out the three words on the bottom: unity, prosperity and family. He said residents and city officials \u201cshare a uniform vision for Vestavia Hills\u201d where the city is sound financially and there is a strong sense of family in the community.\nTo enforce this idea, he shared the results of a study done by the website AreaVibes, an online service that uses an algorithm analyzing amenities, cost, crime rates, education, employment, housing and weather to determine the livability of a city. When looking at cities in Alabama, Vestavia Hills is ranked No. 1.\nCurry attributed the high ranking to the quality of life and education offered, as well as the low crime rate. \u201cSafety in our community is a major factor,\u201d he said. Curry explained that the city has built relationships with federal agencies over the years, which has become a \u201creciprocal agreement\u201d for the agencies and Vestavia.\nWhile the number of vehicle thefts has increased recently \u2014 \u201cmainly because the vehicles were left unlocked,\u201d he said \u2014 the number of crimes decreased 5 percent from 2014-17. Property crimes have decreased more than 20 percent since 2013, as well.\nCurry continued to discuss the amenities Vestavia offers, including a fire department that is one of 43 departments in Alabama to earn an ISO 2 ranking (the second-highest ranking a fire department can achieve) and the Library in the Forest, which he said is one of the top libraries in the Birmingham metro area. The library will soon be opening their Makerspace, where patrons can use a 3-D printer, learn photography and utilize other tools.\nDuring this year, Curry has initiated a few programs, too. The first he discussed were the Community Spaces plans, which were designed after nearly 30 meetings held with community members and stakeholders.\nSome of the projects he mentioned were renovations to Wald Park, road repairs and sidewalk installations in Cahaba Heights and thoroughfare maintenance and upkeep in Liberty Park.\nCurry also mentioned Crimes Against the Elderly programming, which saw nearly 300 attendees at the first informational session, and the Freedom from Addiction Coalition. The coalition is a group effort with the cities of Mountain Brook, Homewood and Hoover, and is aimed at raising awareness for opioid addiction treatment programs.\nFinally, Curry addressed the city\u2019s monetary status, and said Vestavia is in \u201csound financial condition.\u201d Vestavia has earned a AAA score (the highest score) from Moody\u2019s Investment Services. He said the city\u2019s financial success is \u201ca testament to [City Manager] Jeff Downes,\u201d and the way he runs the city.\nThis year, Curry said the city expects a 15 percent growth in general fund revenue, which is in part due to the additional sales tax that was approved earlier this year.\nThis, along with the future plans, the safety and the quality of life within Vestavia, is what contributes to the happiness of families and residents in the city.\n\u201cI feel very good about the city\u2019s quality of life,\u201d he said.\nNovember's luncheon will take place on Nov. 13 at 11:30 a.m. at Vestavia Country Club.

        "title": "Benefits of Using a Travel Agent \u2013 Journal Edge",
        "raw_content": "Benefits of Using a Travel Agent, Travel agents\nTravel agents are professionals who provide assistance with organizing and booking travel. At one time, it was very difficult for people to book tickets for plane, train, and boat trips without the assistance of a travel agent, although this changed with the advent of web sites geared at travelers who wanted to make their own arrangements. The services of a travel agent can still be quite valuable, especially for people who are not experienced travelers. At the most basic level, travel agents are salespeople.\nThey need to be familiar with all the services their agency offers and be able to cater to their clients\u2019 specific needs. Everything from travel dates to accommodation quality to cancellation policies and available transportation will be considered by the agent. They have many \u201cinsider\u201d tips for different destinations and will be confirming each and every reservation made. Travel agents book travel plans for everyone from honeymooning couples to large businesses. Some travel agents specialize in group ventures, such as tour packages or cruise vacations for a large crowd. Some specialize in certain geographical areas or one specific destination. Travel agents have unique relationships with vendors in order to help you get the best deals possible. Travel agencies usually require agents to have a business or liberal arts degree from a four-year college or university. Many agencies also require their agents to be fluent in the language of the location they intend to specialize in.\nMost travel agents will also have extensive experience in customer service. If you\u2019re busy with work, kids, or school, you probably have little time left over to sit at the computer and search for travel deals. This is where hiring a travel agent can be invaluable. If you\u2019ve never booked your own trip and have no idea where to start, a travel agent can be a lifesaver. If you\u2019re traveling abroad for the first time, a travel agent is a trustworthy source for all the small details you\u2019ll need to consider, including currency conversion, cell phone use, passports, translation and medicine. If you\u2019re looking to plan a complicated trip that involves multiple means of transportation and several destinations, a travel agent is definitely the right way to go.\nSave Money (Perks)- Travel agents who book a high volume of trips often have access to perks that you might not be able to get on your own. Whether it\u2019s a room upgrade, a fee waiver or even reservations at a hot resort or on a popular tour, travel agents often add perks into your vacation plan. If you are planning a trip for a special occasion, such as a marriage proposal, a travel agent has access to the resources and people who can help you plan the perfect event.\nTravel Recommendations- Perhaps you\u2019ve always wanted to take a cruise, but you\u2019re not sure which cruise line is best for you or where you want to go. Maybe you want to take the kids to Disney World, but you\u2019re having trouble navigating the endless array of ticket and package options. A travel agent can help.\nYou Get Advice\u2013 Planning a trip can get complicated, especially if you are travelling to a foreign country. You have to think about flights, accommodation, and methods of transportation in addition to ensuring you have all the proper documentation required for your trip. Although much research can be done on the internet, nothing beats the knowledge an experienced travel agent can provide. Often websites can be misleading by using amazing pictures or reviews to draw travelers in. There is nothing worse than arriving at a destination only to be disappointed that the beautiful sights are not what you expected. Travel agents can give you ideas about where to go, what to do, where to eat, and how to get around.\nGet the Scoop on Great Deals- One of the main reasons people purchase travel online is because they believe it\u2019s cheaper. This isn\u2019t necessarily so. Travel agents are always looking for seat sales or deals for last minute cruises. Many agents also work with specific airlines or travel wholesalers to make sure their prices are competitive within the industry.\nService \u2013 Travel agents are knowledgeable and active in the industry. The Society provides education, training and resource materials to its members to equip them with the tools to offer the highest quality of service.\naccommodationTraveltravel agencyTravel agentstravel to india\nPrevious Post The Laughing spirit\nNext Post What Yoga is helpful in Pregnancy?\nPingback: Benefits of Using a Travel Agent \u2013 Journal Edge\nAngela Michelle Thibert says:\nI had such a great experience booking with a travel agent and would definatley think about going back especially for booking internationally\nSo many thanks for your visit and a beautiful comment \ud83d\ude42 you made my day \ud83d\ude42 take care\naww you are welcome, thank you!",

The terms and conditions, as well as the application, were relatively easy to understand and quick to get done. I would recommend them; I didn't find any better insurance in the area and never had many problems with this company.\nThe best thing about this bank, hands down, is that they're open on Sundays. I love having the option to do my banking on a Sunday while everyone else is in church. It means less lines and less people to deal with, and that is always a good thing. Some of their rates are a little high, so I had to rate the bank itself a little lower, but their customer service is top-notch and they're always very helpful and friendly to you when you visit a branch. The branches themselves are neat and easy to navigate, but they're a little sterile and make me a little uncomfortable. Other than that, this bank is great!\nJodi Willis\nI lived in the area for awhile and when I was looking into getting car insurance, I had a friend who recommended this broker to me. So, I decided to give her a shot. Her office was nice and had a warm feeling to it, so it was always pleasant to go in there, and Jodi herself was always very friendly and easy to talk to. She explained things in a way that was easy to understand, and the rates aren't that bad either. At least, they weren't when I had insurance through her. Getting the insurance was quick and easy, as well. Highly recommended.\nGreenville Heritage Federal Credit Union\nI had an account with this credit union for about two years when I lived in South Carolina, and I never had a single issue with their customer service. They were always nice and friendly, in that southern hospitality way, and their branches were always warm and airy and pleasant to go to. The application process was a bit of a pain, but that's because they were having computer trouble on their end, so it wasn't their fault, I suppose. I had a friend who worked at one of the branches and I'd go in and get my banking done with her whenever she was on the clock, because it was just easier that way, but all the other people who worked there were always friendly and nice as well. No complaints here.\nQuite possibly one of the best banks I have ever had an account through. I lived in South Carolina a few years ago and, after a little shopping around, chose SunTrust through some recommendations from close friends and family. They never disappointed. The customer service I received from this bank was second to none \u2013 I've never had a better experience in that department at any other bank. Also, they were always nice enough to give my dog a treat when I'd go through the drive- through. They were very nice about overdraft fees; I had an incident one time where a company charged me twice and they ended up completely waiving the overdraft fee. All in all, I love this bank and if they were available where I live now, you can bet that I'd still be banking through them.\nI just got home insurance through this broker about two weeks ago, and I've had no problems so far. He's been very pleasant and nice, and his office is always really open and warm, so I feel comfortable going in there. Whenever I have a question on anything about my insurance, he's always willing and able to help and provide me with good, easy to understand answers. The rates aren't bad, either, though I admit I've only had home insurance a couple of times and don't have too much to compare it to. I mainly chose this place because it's really close to my house. I'd recommend him, though, based on my experience so far!\nSandy Bradfield\nI had car insurance with Sandy when I lived in Colorado Springs, at the recommendation of the friend I was living with at the time. I never had any complaints about the service I received, and the rates weren't bad for living in Colorado, which is notoriously expensive for everything. I never had any trouble with my bill or unexpected charges, and they offered everything that I needed in car insurance. Sandy was nice and friendly all the time, and having insurance through them was always a pleasant experience. Her office was always nice and had homey feeling, so I never dreaded making the trip in there to pay the bill every month.\nI had insurance through this broker while I lived in Westminster, Colorado. I had shopped around for awhile and finally decided on this particular broker, and it was a pretty good choice. The rates were reasonable, for how expensive the area was. The application process was simple and whenever I had questions, he was always able to help me figure out the answers. I never had any unexpected charges or anything, either. Overall, this was a pleasant experience. I moved after awhile and had to cancel my insurance with him, but if I still lived in that area, I would definitely still have that insurance.\nI had this bank for awhile when I lived in Colorado Springs. I had switched over from Chase, and the difference was pretty substantial. I had an overall good experience with Chase, but I think I preferred this bank over them. The customer service was always really helpful, everything always went relatively smoothly. I never had any particular problems with my account, and any time I had a question someone knowledgeable was able to help me get things figured out. The rates for checking accounts and other services weren't too bad, either. Overall, I was satisfied with this bank, and if my current hometown had them, I would probably still be using them.\nPikes Peak Credit Union\nI lived in Colorado Springs for around a year and chose this place as my credit union on the recommendation of my roommate at the time. I can't say I was ever disappointed in the choice, though I have had better credit union experiences than this one. It was really hit or miss with how intelligent the employees were \u2013 sometimes I had a teller who didn't know what she was doing, sometimes I had ones that were grumpy, but then there were times that there were nice, smart people who knew what they were doing. The services offered were great, at least, and the application process wasn't too difficult to understand.\nThe application process and the fine print with this particular credit union was a little more complicated to get through than other credit unions I have had accounts at, but that is my only complaint. I had an account with these guys for about a year and they were always fantastic at helping me through things, the employees were always very friendly and helpful, and they would keep me up to date on my account just in case there was something a little strange going on. I enjoyed this credit union, I thought they were really great, and would recommend them to anyone.\nI lived in Colorado for a year or so recently and opened up an account with these guys because they had several branch locations near me and also a couple of them were open seven days a week. I never had too many issues with this bank's service, but there were some minor flaws. The rates on my checking account were rather high, much higher than I am used to. Sometimes they would charge things through my account twice and I'd have to call or go into a branch to get that sorted with them. It was nice getting to do my banking on Sundays, though, so that was a convenient perk. I'm sure there are better banks out there, though, if you're in the area and looking.\nI lived in Colorado for about a year recently, and this was the insurance company that was closest to where I lived and most convenient for me to sign up for. The rates aren't bad, and everyone I ever had to deal with at this office, including other customers, was always very nice. I had car insurance with this company the whole time I lived in Colorado, and never once had a problem with my bill in terms of extra charges or anything. There were a couple of times that my bill was late in the mail or something got messed up in their system that way, but a quick, courteous call to them would always get it sorted out with minimal problems. I would recommend this company, never had a problem with them that wasn't easily solved.\nI lived in Denver for about a year and tried out a couple of different banks and credit unions. This one was very good. I never had any problems while banking with these guys. Signing up was quick and easy, and they never accidentally overcharged me or anything while I had an account with them. Tellers were nice and informative, always willing to help me out when I had any questions. The location was convenient to where I lived at the time, and since I had to walk in Colorado in the middle of winter that was a huge plus. I have no complaints about this credit union. Highly recommended!\nI just started an account with these guys last week, and so far it's been a great experience. This place is pretty close to my apartment, so it makes it easy for me to walk there and get my banking done instead of having to take a bus, since I don't have a car. The tellers were all very nice, and the woman who helped me set up my account was able to do things in a clear, concise way. Their rates are pretty good and they offer some nice products. I'm pretty new to San Antonio, so I only have one other account here, but this one, I think, might end up being better than my other one.\nAudrey Perez\nI signed onto this insurance soon after I moved to San Antonio, and have never had any problems with their service. Being new to the city and new to Texas in general, I wasn't sure of the different laws here than in Indiana, so I was kind of confused by a lot of things, but she made sure to explain everything to me really well and we got it all sorted out without a problem. The rates are great for what I am offered, and I don't have any complaints about their service. Whenever I have a question, she's there to answer it for me. This is probably the best home insurance I've ever had, and I'll be recommending her to everyone in the future who needs a home insurance reference.\nI moved to San Antonio a little less than a year ago, and as a student wanted to find a credit union to open an account at. I did some shopping around and I did open up an account at another credit union, but I recently switched over to Generations since there's a branch within walking distance from my apartment, so it's more convenient for me. I'm glad I made the switch, because Generations has been absolutely fantastic. Their rates are great, their customer service is great, and I have never once had an issue with anything since I switched. I enjoy banking with this credit union, and I will probably stick with them for years to come.\nI moved to San Antonio around a year ago and ended up buying a house with a friend of mine. We shopped around for home insurance, and found that USAA was the best in terms of prices and interest that we could find. The woman who helped us fill out all the paperwork was very helpful in explaining their terms, and we were in and out in a really short period of time. I've never been overcharged for anything on my bills, and the rates are really great for us. Whenever I have a question about extra things I might want to add to the insurance or anything like that, they're always very helpful whether I call or go into the office to talk to them about it. I highly recommend these guys for home insurance for anyone!\nI had a savings account through this credit union when I was in my last year of college at ISU. All in all, I wasn't very fond of it. It's a really small credit union, they only have a couple of branches, and I thought that maybe that'd make it better since they might have a more homey feel than a lot of the bigger banks don\u2019t. I was wrong, because a lot of the employees at the branch I frequented were rude and didn't really know what they were talking about, let alone how to help me with any questions I had. There were a couple of ladies who were really friendly and helpful, and I had to start timing my visits to when I knew they'd be working or I wasn't sure I'd be able to deal with the other employees. Since I lived only a few blocks from the branch, I would usually stop by there on the way home from classes to do my banking for the day. I don't know how many times I had to argue with a couple of the tellers to get things done right. Thankfully, I no longer have to deal with this place or those employees anymore.\nI set up a checking account through Harris when I was living in a smaller Indiana town during an extended job stay for my old employer. It was the same bank the company itself used, and I needed to be able to make fast deposits. I never had any trouble with Harris or any of its staff-- everyone was friendly and informative, and they never gave me any reason to not be happy with their services. They were quick to answer questions, quick to get me in and out and make sure my deposits for my company all went through. No matter what time of day I went in, morning or evening, the tellers were always incredibly nice and courteous. I have no complaints about Harris bank, and I think they offer a lot of really nice features for a smaller chain bank in the Midwest. Highly recommended.\nIllinois State Credit Union\nI lived in Terre Haute during my first year of college. I chose ISU Credit Union for my credit union because I'd heard good things about it from friends. However, I had nothing but bad experiences with these guys. They would misplace my deposits, double-charge me for things, and the tellers were always so rude about even trying to fix their mistakes that I eventually just gave up, closed my account, and found a new place to put my money that wouldn't lose it or take more of it than they should have. The people working at all the branches I ever visited were the most incompetent employees of any place I've ever seen. I wouldn't recommend this bank to anyone unless you don't mind large amounts of your money randomly getting misplaced; if that's your kind of thing, then you'll love it here.\nI have a savings account through Woodforest bank, and while it's not bad, it's definitely not the best. Sometimes their customer service agents don't seem to really know what they're talking about, and I had a little difficulty understanding some of the disclosures since the person who explained all my account information to me didn't really explain it in a way that was easy to understand. Eventually, though, I managed to find a person who could explain things to me in clearer terms, so now it isn't so bad. The rates aren't bad at all and it's great that I can access my account any time I go to a Walmart to do some shopping, since most of them have Woodforest banks in the front end of the store. Overall, I can say that Woodforest Bank is an alright bank, especially if you're looking for a convenient location.\nI have had car insurance through Hanover for a little while now, and I'm more than pleased with the entire package. The employees are all very kind and easy to talk to, they explain things in a way that absolutely anyone could understand. They don't hide fees from you or forget to disclose information. Everything is very upfront. The application process goes quickly and smoothly, and so does the payment process each month. I had one month where I was overcharged for my bill and I called and they took care of it right away. The rates are fair and subject to a lot of things, but for me, a person with bad credit history and very little money to spend on things like insurance, this was the cheapest, best place I could find. I think their rates are pretty fantastic compared to a lot of other insurance companies. All in all I recommend Hanover Insurance to anyone, because they're pretty much all-around great.\nI have been with PNC since it was National City bank, and I have to say that it's become a much better bank since the changeover. Back when I first got a checking account through National City, I had a lot of issues through them. The moment PNC took over, though, things changed. Their customer service is top-notch, I've never had any trouble with getting the help I need. I also enjoy that the switchover allowed me to keep my checking account with no fees. In this day and age it's very rare to find a bank that lets you have a checking account with no fees, so that was a great perk. I visit the same branch all the time and the customer service reps and bankers there all know me by name, I stop and chat with them every time I'm there. Overall I love PNC Bank. Great products, great customer service, great employees. Highly recommended.\nI just moved to San Antonio in February of this year, and I was looking for a credit union to sign up for to help me get a checking account in the area. I had a friend who recommended SACU to me, and I'm so glad she did, because I've had nothing but great experiences with this place! The customer service is fantastic, everyone in all the branches and on the phone has been really great to me. The services are also really great-- they were explained to me in easy to understand terms and I get a lot of use out of everything. SACU is great for people like me who need a good checking account, especially if you don't have the absolute best credit to work with. Whenever I have a problem with my account or a question, all I have to do is call and someone helpful will get it fixed or explain things to me right away. The application process was also really quick and simple-- it didn't require too much of my time and the employee explained everything to me really well while I filled out the application. All in all, I love this place-- highly recommended!\ntraci_carson_5 has not asked or answered any questions yet\nMention @traci_carson_5",

Their rates are low, but have only found one bank to beat them. It's really hard to find a good bank/credit union that is there for the people and not just in to make money.

        "raw_content": "\"Young plants need rain, businesses need investment. Our old industries are like dry crops and privatisation brings the rain. When the harvest comes, there is plenty for everyone?Electricity to light our homes. Safe water for our families to drink. Telephones to call our loved ones far away. Ports and railways to bring us wonderful things, and to sell our goods to the world. We need these things. Our children need these things. Privatisation will provide them.\"\nOr so went the lyrics by Tanzanian pop singer Captain John Komba, in which he desperately tried to get Tanzanians on board for a massive privatisation exercise in 2001. The pro-privatisation campaign was managed by the British think-tank Adam Smith Institute and funded by the Department for International Development (DfID). But in early 2005 the privatisation programme collapsed when City Water, a joint venture involving British water company Biwater, was kicked out of the country due to its poor performance.\nWhen War on Want recently visited our South African partner organisation the Anti-Privatisation Forum (APF), it was clear that privatisation has not brought the musical promise of \"plenty of rain for everyone\" in South Africa either.\nWater privatisation was introduced in South Africa in 2001 when the City of Johannesburg created Johannesburg Water, a private company responsible for water provision in the capital. In order to protect their new investment, Johannesburg Water proceeded with plans to install prepaid water meters at most of Soweto's 151,000 stands. The measures, which denied water to poor families not able to prepay, has been disastrous for communities in South Africa.\nBut just as music played a key role in the struggle against apartheid, the APF is now using it to raise awareness of the dangers of privatisation of public services such as water, electricity, education, housing and health care. Its new CD, Songs of the Working Class, was launched at its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in April 2007 in Johannesburg.\nThe CD includes songs that were sung during the anti-apartheid struggle such as We Nyamazane Yiyo Ehlala Ehlathini (A Buck Lives in the Forest), newly adapted to call on the government to remain serious about improving the living conditions of the poor ? a goal that has been comprimised by water privatisation.\nThe cost of water has had serious health repercussions. Recent research has shown that the installation of prepaid water meters has been shown to dramatically reduce hand washing, raising the risk of water-borne disease. Out of those respondents who reported never washing their hands, 77% had prepaid water meters in their homes, suggesting they could not afford to wash.\nFor people living with HIV - 18.8% of the population in 2006 - access to clean water is crucial.\nWhile the City of Johannesburg now provides a free basic water allowance of 6,000 litres per household per month, this only enables a household of 8 people to flush the toilet once a day. Families have started locking their taps, as water has become such a precious commodity that thieves have begun to steal it.\nArguing that water is a basic human right, a number of residents in Phiri, Soweto, supported in part by the APF, launched a legal challenge in the Johannesburg High Court in July 2006 against Johannesburg Water, the City of Johannesburg and the Minister of Water Affairs & Forestry. It is an argument also made in the song Amanzi Ngawethu (\"Water is Ours\"), where APF activist-cum-singer Patra calls on the government, local authorities and private water companies to accept that access to water is a basic human right and therefore should not be privatised.\nThe court case, which seeks to declare the instalment of prepaid water meter as unconstitutional and unlawful, is expected to be heard in 2007.",

HDCF then filed a counter-suit, claiming its right to pump the 709 acre feet of water.\nThe two parties met in mediation a year ago, Allan said, with the town making a significant offer \u2014 more than $100,000, he would only say \u2014 and the foundation countering with a request for more than $1 million. The water rights are valued at $3.8 million.\nSo far, Victorville Superior Court Judge Gilbert Ochoa has denied HDCF\u2019s request to transfer the case to the Riverside court, denied Apple Valley\u2019s request to throw the whole case out and then denied the foundation\u2019s request to stop the town from drilling a new well on the golf course.",

        "raw_content": "This man holds the keys to Harry Potter, but could he hold the key to even more\u2026\nBy Razi Hassan and Shakeel Esoof\nMention the name Dan Dark round these parts and you will notice a palpable sense of excitement. To call him Watford\u2019s Willy Wonka wouldn\u2019t be far off \u2013 magical things happen behind the doors of the Warner Bros. Studio Leavesden which he manages\u2026\nFew would argue that the old Rolls Royce factory and former airfield, has forever carried a charm. Talk to local residents, and almost everyone has a story to tell: \u201cmy uncle Rodney worked on laying the airstrip\u201d; \u201cmy grandmother worked there during the Second World War\u201d\u2026 while for many, including myself, the sight and sound of Concorde flying over-head remain etched in memory for eternity.\nInevitably, when the shutters did come down on the factory in 1992, Rolls-Royce planned to build a golf course and hotel on the site. But, Leavesden deserved more than that, and over the coming years entered a new era of mystique and fascination, eventually becoming the home of Harry Potter.\nDan Dark is an influential man. Despite being the proprietor of one of the UK\u2019s most popular tourist attractions and newest film studios, he is modest. He is also a passionate individual. In previous encounters, I have witnessed a dancing Dan Dark, rouse a room full of benefactors to raise money for The Collet School (a special educational needs school in Hemel Hempstead), and sob without inhibition during an event celebrating the \u2018Ability in Disability\u2018.\n\u201cI was born in Holland to a Dutch mother and an English film-producer father. I spent most of my childhood in Surrey. I was born and bred into the film industry \u2013 it really was very much part of family life.\u201d\nDan would work on his father\u2019s film sets during school holidays, \u201cI suppose the passion evolved from there\u201d. He remembers a phone call he received: \u201cI was in the middle of my O Level\u2019s and got a call from a production coordinator who offered me a role on the Peter Hyams film \u2018Outland\u2019 starring Sean Connery. I had to take time off work to finish my O Level\u2019s.\u201d\nDan labels that period as the \u2018start of the journey\u2019: \u201cI was a runner making tea and coffee in the days when runners actually had to run around rather than just wander. It was pre-mobile phones, pre-fax machines, pre-internet \u2013 God I am that old (he mutters to himself).\u201d\nWorking his way up the ladder through assistant directing, Dan was involved with most of the James Bond films of that time, as well as some of the biggest special effects blockbusters. This included James Cameron\u2019s Alien, where Dan was part of the team that won an Oscar\u00a9 for special effects. \u201cIt was a really fun time. I was traveling around the world doing boys toys stuff.\u201d\nDan\u2019s career then saw him move to the South of Spain to build a TV studio, which he did, operating the facility for several years before returning to the UK.\n\u201cIt was 1994, I was walking down the corridors of another film studio and popped in to see the makers of the James Bond films \u2013 the following day I came to visit Leavesden, and so the story began. Back then, the whole site had been shut for a few years, it was a spooky place. There were acres of space, and when you opened a door there was the worry of what you might find behind it!\u201d\nOver the coming years, Leavesden would exchange hands, transforming itself from dereliction, dilapidation, and despair, into the state-of-the-art facility that stands today. Albeit with the help of a little wizard\u2026\nThe Harry Potter impact\n\u201cThe studio would not be here if it was not for Harry Potter. Without question that was the catalyst for Warner Bros. to purchase the site and invest over \u00a3150 million. We recognised the value of this kind of property in the UK.\u201d\nToday, the Harry Potter Studio Tour is a world-leading visitor attraction: \u201cThe quality of the product we have been able to put on display, and the quality of our staff is extraordinary. This is something that we are very proud of and I hope the surrounding community is also. When I talk to friends, local business people, and so forth, they say that they are benefitting from the growth.\u201d\nBeing privileged\nDan breaks for a glass of water \u2013 it\u2019s a hot day. The interview is taking place in his office, all the windows are flung open and outside is a hive of activity as vehicles move around the facility. The persistent beeping of reversing trucks makes me wonder whether the noise is going to interfere with my audio recording.\nOur conversation turns toward the real reason why we are meeting today\u2026 social responsibility.\n\u201cThere isn\u2019t a personal story. I wouldn\u2019t say that there is anything that has happened to me in my career or life that suddenly made me think that I need to do something\u201d. He ponders for a moment. \u201cTo give something back is an over-used phrase, we all have a responsibility, it is not something I particularly consider, it is just how I feel and so I act on it.\u201d\nDan Dark is under no illusions, he is in a privileged position and he knows it. \u201cI am really lucky, incredibly lucky to be in the position that I am in. To be able to make a difference in some way, shape, or form, is an honour and a responsibility, and that is how I see it.\u201d\nA passionate advocate for equality in the workplace, Dan hosted representatives from over 140 local businesses, education bodies, and community organisations at a special event in May to raise awareness of the untapped potential of disabled people in the workforce. Pressing him on the topic, I asked him what he is doing at Leavesden to lead from the front?\n\u201cThis is the beginning of a journey. We have a number of people here at the studio with unique abilities, and we are working to have more.\n\u201cMy point in hosting the ability in disability event was and remains, changing the mindset of businesses to being open to a unique workforce that is out there, a substantially untapped workforce.\n\u201cI am only one voice, but I am pleased that a lot of people have listened and are taking action. I want to be a catalyst to make this happen, but it cannot just be down to one person or organisation to drive this change.\n\u201cThis is where the \u2018Chamber of Conscience\u2019 comes in. It is a mindset, as well as an entity, bringing, business; community; charities; and other organisations together in a more unified and cohesive manner under one umbrella.\n\u201cHaving someone with Chris Luff\u2019s drive, tenacity, and network at the Chamber of Commerce, and Conscience means that we will see a real difference. I really believe in it, that is why I have agreed to help develop an initial strategy along with another business leader who has also pledged their support.\u201d\nDan also advocates the need to \u2018help the helpers\u2019: \u201cthrough the charities and schools that we have supported, we have seen the value in helping the helpers. There are so many incredible people, doing incredible work to help others.\u201d\nWorking in the supporting sectors can also be hugely underappreciated and Dan believes that this has to change. \u201cWe hosted an inset day for teachers and volunteers from The Collet School here at the studio. We talked to them about the great job that they are doing \u2013 it was an opportunity to appreciate them. Too often people working in the supporting sectors do not get the recognition they deserve\u201d. Reflecting on an earlier question, he says, \u201cyou asked me what drives me, I have to ask, gosh, what drives these people? They are the real heroes.\u201d\nThe Watford way\nAs momentum and excitement from the recent Community Action Day continues a week on, I ask Dan what it is that makes Watford\u2019s voluntary sector so vibrant.\n\u201cThe mindset of supporting the community has always been here in Watford, but I do not want to isolate Watford, we are actually in Three Rivers, so touch on Watford. But, everywhere I go in this local community I see people doing amazing things.\u201d\nDan reiterates the potential impact of the Chamber of Conscience: \u201cI think what has been missing in all this is the \u2018linking together\u2019 which results in a really strong volunteering day or week like we have just had. I have to add that Chris Luff has been a big instigator in all of this. Is this just the start \u2013 yes absolutely.\n\u201cI do not think you will meet a business out there that does not believe in social responsibility, but it is easier for some than others. This is where the Chamber of Conscience can make a difference because whether you are a small charity looking for support or a corporate with volunteer resource, the structure will facilitate.\u201d\nDan is an ambitious man, and his endeavours are set to expand further as he looks to bring \u2018planet\u2019 alongside \u2018people\u2019: \u201cour work in the community has been very focused on people, and I am really proud of what we have achieved so far.\n\u201cAt the beginning of this year, we took a decision, which was influenced by my own beliefs, but also because of Sky\u2019s Ocean Rescue project to bring people and planet together as a focus. We are not slowing down what we are doing with people, we are just bringing these two pillars together.\u201d\nAs part of this, the studio is looking to partner with the Building Research Establishment (BRE), \u201cwho are just down the road\u201d, Dan remarks. \u201cWe have also helped to support the PumpHouse theatre with their play \u2018Rainforest Dreams\u2018 which is raising awareness of the devastation taking place in the Amazon\u201d. The play is going up to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and Dan is joining.\n\u201cI am also planning a trip, self-funded, to visit the Amazon and stay with the indigenous Indians to learn about the environment and the problems.\u201d\nSustainability has always been a personal passion of Dan\u2019s, chuckling he says: \u201cit is difficult when you are as old as I am, I struggle to remember what goes into which bin. So, my thing is \u2018let\u2019s make it simple\u2019, the easier we can make it, the more likely it will succeed.\u201d\nDan working at the Chios refugee camp in Greece\nReturning to the topic of Watford, Dan believes that the town has so much to shout about. \u201cWe have got to shout loudly about being one of the most generous towns according to Just Giving. But, what an incredible achievement if Watford became a benchmark in sustainable living also? There is a real drive towards that, it is happening, but these things take time.\u201d\nDan also thinks Watford can go toe-to-toe: \u201ctake Imagine Watford for example, I was blown away by the performers, they were outstanding. Look at the Palace Theatre, it is a world-class theatre with a world-class producer, we need to be shouting about this a lot more.\n\u201cThe town has suffered from a reputation that is unfounded now. We are a strong, vibrant, culturally-diverse, culturally-aware place that has so much going for it.\u201d\nI draw the interview to a close by asking Dan to depart a little wisdom in his closing remarks.\n\u201cThe most important piece of advice I was ever given, was that \u2018the worst decision, is no decision at all\u2019. We all make mistakes, but as long as we have the courage to make decisions, and to hold our hands up when we get it wrong, we are heading in the right direction.\u201d\nPrevious ArticleVIDEO: Welcome to Cassiobury Park\nNext ArticleSupporting Watford \u2013 11 years of Ali Naqi\n07/09/2018 Matthew Cawthorne Reply\nWatford has got so much going fir it, and Dan Dark\u2019s interest and support for the town is making a huge difference \u2013 thank you",

        "title": "NED's Legal Responsibilities | iNED Information Bank",
        "raw_content": "NEDs have exactly the same status under the law as, and share unlimited liability with, their fellow Executive Directors. These responsibilities and duties are defined in the Companies Act 2006.\nDIRECTORS\u2019 DUTIES UNDER THE COMPANIES ACT 2006\nThe Companies Act has codified the duties of Directors and these statutory duties are applicable to all Directors, both Executive and Non-executive.\nThere are seven general duties for Directors, set out in Sections 170-177 of the Act, as follows:\n1. Duty to Act within their Powers (Section 171)\nAll Directors are under a duty to act in accordance with the company\u2019s constitution (i.e. its Articles and Memorandum) and observe any restrictions contained therein. In addition, any powers delegated to a Director by shareholders must be used for the benefit of the company.\n2. Duty to Promote the Success of the Company (Section 172)\nThis is one of the most significant changes brought about by the Act in terms of a Director\u2019s duties. It is now the duty of a Director to act in a way that he or she considers, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the company and consequently for the benefit of its members as a whole.\nWhilst \u201csuccess\u201d is not defined in the Act, Directors should consider a number of factors, including the following (non-exhaustive) list:\nThe interests of the company\u2019s employees\nThe likely long-term consequences of their decisions\nThe need to foster the company\u2019s business relationships with suppliers, customers and others\nThe impact of the company\u2019s operations on the community and the environment\nThe desirability of maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct\nThe need to act fairly as between members of the company\n3. Duty to Exercise Independent Judgment (Section 173)\nAlthough Directors will still be able to consult experts on various matters, the responsibility for decisions taken by them rest with the Directors collectively and they must exercise their own judgment in deciding whether to follow the advice of a third party.\n4. Duty to Exercise Reasonable Care, Skill and Diligence (Section 174)\nThis section identifies the standard of competence which Directors are expected to meet in the course of carrying out their functions. As a minimum, and assessed objectively, Directors must display the knowledge, skill and experience that may be reasonably expected of a person carrying out the functions of the Director in relation to the company. The care, skill and diligence exercised by a Director will also be assessed subjectively in terms of the general knowledge, skill and experience that the Director actually has.\n5. Duty to Avoid Conflicts of Interest (Section 175)\nA Director must actively avoid situations in which he or she has, or could have, an interest (whether direct or indirect) that conflicts, or may conflict, with the interests of the company. For private companies (formed on or after 1 October 2008), the Act does, however, allow an independent quorum of Directors to authorise such conflicts as long as the company\u2019s constitution does not expressly prevent them from doing so.\n6. Duty Not to Accept Benefits from Third Parties (Section 176)\nA Director should not make a secret profit as a result of being a Director. The Act states that a Director is not permitted to accept a benefit from a third party by reason of (i) being a Director; or (ii) as a consequence of taking (or otherwise) a particular action as a Director.\n7. Duty to Declare Interests in a Proposed or Existing Transaction or Arrangement with the Company (Section 177)\nOther duties that a Director should consider, whilst not exhaustive, may include:\nDuty to devote sufficient time and attention to the role\nDuty to account to shareholders\nDuty not to make \u201csecret profits\u201d\nA general duty to act in good faith\nDuty to maintain books of accounts\nDuty to file accounts, annual returns and tax returns\nDuty to maintain statutory books\nDuty to ensure that the company is complying with all relevant legislation\nLIABILITIES OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS\nThe basis of corporate limited liability is that all debts incurred by a company are the company\u2019s liabilities and not directly the legal liabilities of the shareholders or of the Directors.\nUnder UK law, a company is a separate legal person from the shareholders and the Directors, including the NEDs. A company normally incurs debts in the course of its business and therefore, as a discrete legal entity, only the company is liable for such debts.\nDirectors who behave properly and lawfully incur no personal liability as their activities are undertaken as agents for the company. However, there are certain circumstances where personal, unlimited liability may be imposed by the court, particularly in respect of wrongful or fraudulent trading and in the event of illegal acts.\nThe UK Government offers Advice on running a limited liability company.\nIn order to benefit from the protection afforded by limited liability company status, NEDs must ensure that they act properly and responsibly. The law requires all Directors to act in this manner.\nIf a Director (or any other person involved in the management of a company) does not act in a lawful manner, then in certain circumstances a court may examine his or her conduct. It may then order that a personal contribution be made towards the company\u2019s debts, in the event of insolvency, that the Director be disqualified for a period, or, in extreme cases, invoke criminal sanctions (including imprisonment and fines).\nDirectors in the insurance industry who do not comply with relevant regulations may also face personal sanctions.\nCompanies may also be fined by the PRA and the FCA for breaking their rules, which may lead to further actions by shareholders, depending upon individual circumstances. At the very least, reputational damage will normally be suffered; often at both the corporate and personal level. Fines and penalties imposed by UK regulators cover a wide range of unacceptable practices; including such matters as failure to meet minimum regulatory standards, proven bribery by intermediaries and mis-selling of insurance products, to name but a few.\nUK Government Advice: Electronic link to the UK Government advice on running a limited liability company",

        "raw_content": "The key issue for the majority of our businesses is to ensure your site is successfully targeted to the most relevant search terms for your business using SEO, so that when potential clients in type these search terms into a search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo, the SEO helps your business to rank highly on the first pages of that search.\nIt is common practice for Internet search users to not click through pages and pages of search results, so where a site ranks in a search results page is essential for directing more traffic toward the site. The higher a website naturally ranks in organic results of a search, the greater the chance that that site will be visited by a user.\nNot having any web presence or online presence means that your potential customers are shooting in the dark. A website can help increase interest in your cause. By hiring a qualified, professional web designer from Trowbridge Business Web or Trowbridge Web Design you can discover a few of these advantages yourself. Here you will find just a selection of those advantages:\nWhen you have a website, it is much easier to adapt the site to your own personal tastes or desires than it is, say, a shop. With the right web designer in Trowbridge, you can generate a website tailored to the different aspects of what it is that you are trying to advertise. If you get bored with the aesthetics or the content of the website, then it will take a very small time period for a designer to alter the look of the website, or increase the level of content.\nHaving a website will mean that the hours which your business for example, is open to the public, are unlimited. The internet is available 24 hours, 7 days a week. Customers will not have to wait to find out opening times and the like, as they will be able to access your website whatever time of day they like, and find out the relevant information which they need to know. You would be surprised how many potential clients just use the web to access your company phone number and by not having any web presence how can they measure themselves that your even still in business.\nMillions of people who may not normally find out about the contents of your website will be more likely to come across whichever service, business or similar that you are advertising. You will find, especially when hiring a web designer with SEO skills or qualifications, that the traffic generated to your website will far outweight the number of people who were given the web address directly.\nYou will save on both postage and printing costs which may apply to most businesses when they wish to send out catalogues or fliers for example. You will not need to send out such information when you can simply advertise online and have all of the information that they will need to know in one place, online. A well designed website offers you unlimited advertisement. Instead of having to pay for adverts in local newspapers, the radio, tv and the like, you can choose to pay a one-off fee to a web designer in Trowbridge to create a website for you. when we do our search engine optimisation we supply natural organic listings and stay clear from pay per click adverts which could cost you a lot of money when only about 20% of the population will click on the pay per clicks.",

        "raw_content": "Day 1203: The 1977 Club! The Honourable Schoolboy\nApril 16, 2018 April 17, 2018 whatmeread1 Comment\nI actually read this novel before the 1977 Club was announced, but I was pleased to find that it was published in that year. I have a couple of other books I\u2019m reviewing this week that I read especially for the club.\nHere are my previous reviews of some other books published in 1977:\nThe Beggar Maid by Alice Munro\nI wasn\u2019t aware that there was a sequel to John Le Carr\u00e9\u2019s Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy until I picked up The Honourable Schoolboy and started reading it. It is truly a worthy successor.\nIn summarizing the plot, I have to give away a key point of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, but a point revealed toward the beginning of the novel. In that novel, of course, George Smiley uncovered a mole for the Russians high up in British intelligence. Because of the mole\u2019s position, as The Honourable Schoolboy begins, all of the service\u2019s spy networks are compromised and must be dismantled.\nWith a small staff of personnel who were dismissed during his predecessor\u2019s reign, Smiley must figure out a way to make the service viable again. He has the idea that they can look for intelligence in the lacunae of his predecessor\u2019s work, that is, look for promising leads that were suppressed.\nThey find one, payments by the Russians to an account in Hong Kong, first small ones but later very large. Since the \u201cspook house\u201d in Hong Kong has been closed, Smiley recalls a journalist, an \u201coccasional\u201d agent, Jerry Westerby, from retirement in Tuscany to investigate this lead. A tangled path leads him from a Chinese businessman in Hong Kong to the man\u2019s former prostitute English mistress, a Mexican drug courier in Vientiane, and some ugly dealings.\nIt is always amazing to me that Le Carr\u00e9 can evoke as much excitement from a paper chase as from an action sequence. Once again, he is in top form with a taut thriller. This novel is set against a backdrop of Southeast Asia exploding into chaos with the end of the Vietnam War. Westerby\u2019s investigations take him to Hong Kong, Shanghai, Phnom Penh, Vientiane, and Saigon.\n#1977Club, 1970s, Cambodia, China, espionage, George Smiley, Hong Kong, John Le Carre, Laos, Phnom Penh, Saigon, Shanghai, Southeast Asia, suspense, The Honorouble Schoolboy, thrillers, Vientiane, Vietnam, Vietnam War\nDay 1113: On Her Majesty\u2019s Frightfully Secret Service\nI had never read anything by Rhys Bowen, but recently I noticed reviews of her books popping up here and there. When Netgalley offered On Her Majesty\u2019s Frightfully Secret Service, I was intrigued. What I found was a frothy story of intrigue. This novel is the 11th in her \u201cHer Royal Spyness\u201d historical mystery series.\nBowen\u2019s heroine is Georgie Rannock, the sister of a duke and 34th in line for the throne. She is on the impoverished side of the family, though. It is 1935, and Georgie is staying at the ancestral home of her fianc\u00e9, Darcy, at Kilkenny Castle in Ireland while they plan their wedding. Since Darcy is Catholic, Georgie may not marry him unless she renounces all claim to the throne, and to do so, she must have permission from the throne.\nDarcy is employed by the government in some secret capacity, and he is called away. In his absence, Georgie decides to pop over to London after receiving a belated summons by Queen Mary. In her late mail, she also finds a plea from her friend, Belinda, who is in Italy. Belinda has gotten pregnant and is hiding out in Italy until she goes across the lake to Switzerland to have her baby. She wants Georgie to stay with her.\nSummoned to tea at Buckingham Palace, Georgie goes to discuss her wedding difficulties with Queen Mary. When the Queen learns her immediate destination in Italy, she proposes getting Georgie invited to a swank house party there. The Prince of Wales and Mrs. Simpson will be attending, and the Queen wants to know if Mrs. Simpson has her divorce.\nAt the house party, Georgie finds herself enmeshed in more than one drama. Her mother, the famous actress, is there, and she is being blackmailed. Some of the party are German generals, and something seems to be going on with them. And soon there is a murder.\nI mildly enjoyed this little romp, although I knew who the murderer was even before the murder (if that makes sense). That is, I noticed something immediately and once there was a murder, knew who it was as a result. Perhaps I would have enjoyed the novel more if I had started with the beginning of the series. Georgie gets herself into some ridiculous situations, the murder is worked by a bone-headed Italian policeman, and the novel is just silly fun.\n20th century, England, espionage, Georgina Rannock, Her Royal Spyness, historical mysteries, humor, Ireland, Italy, London, On Her Majesty's Frightfully Secret Service, Rhys Bowen\nDay 906: Enchanted Islands\nEnchanted Islands is a novel based on the lives of Frances and Ainsley Conway, an American couple who lived on the Galapagos Islands in the late 1930\u2019s and the 40\u2019s. Although based on two memoirs written by Frances Conway, Amend has expanded the novel to cover most of Frances\u2019s life and her friendship with Rosalie Mendel, all presumably fictional.\nThis book is a rather odd one. It begins with Frances and Rosalie in their old age and then returns in time to their childhood in Wisconsin. It spends some time there, following them until Frances\u2019s late teens, when she discovers Rosalie with her own boyfriend and flees. Then it glosses over the next 20 years until Frances meets Rosalie again in California and later marries Ainsley. After that, Frances and Ainsley go on a spying mission for the Navy, something Frances is never able to tell her friends about.\nThe result creates a sort of divided effect. First, sections of the novel are either full of Rosalie or have no Rosalie, which made me wonder, why even bother with her? Why not just write about Galapagos? The other parts seem to belong to a different novel.\nThen there is Galapagos, which Amend simplifies to the island Floreana when actually the Conways lived on three different islands. The existence there seems harsh, bleak, and lonely. There is little description of scenery or anything else to make us understand why, according to Amend, they came to love it. In fact, there is very little going on there, even including the spying.\nI felt a distance from all these characters. Although we learn a lot about Frances, we don\u2019t ever feel as if we understand her, and Ainsley is a sort of charming enigma. Most of the time, we don\u2019t even like Rosalie.\nSo, a middling reaction to this novel. I was interested enough to finish it, but only mildly interested. I thought there was no sense of place in any of the settings. The characters didn\u2019t seem like real people. The cover of the novel is lovely, but the islands seemed in no way enchanting. Did Amend bother to visit them, or is she just not good at description? Or are they not lovely?\nAmend comments that she is a novelist first and only a mediocre historian. That remark irritated me, because I think that\u2019s what\u2019s wrong with with many historical novels. If authors aren\u2019t willing to do the research to bring a time and place to life, maybe they should stick to contemporary fiction.\n20th century, Allison Amend, biographical fiction, Enchanted Islands, espionage, Galapagos Islands, historical fiction, World War II\nDay 880: Exposure\nApril 7, 2016 whatmeread13 Comments\nIt\u2019s the early 1960\u2019s, the height of the Cold War, and Giles Holloway is a spy for the Russians, employed by the British Admiralty. He has been slipped a file to copy by his superior, Julian Clowde, and he takes it up to his secret attic room to photograph it.\nBut Giles has become an unreliable drunk. He falls down the stairs, breaking bones. He knows he must do something about returning the file by the next day, so he calls Simon Callington from the hospital and asks him to pick up the file and give it to Julian Clowde\u2019s secretary.\nSimon is not a spy. He\u2019s an unambitious coworker who is more interested in his family than his job. Long ago, when Simon was at university, he was Giles\u2019s lover, and Giles thinks he will do as he\u2019s told. But when Simon sees the folder, he knows it should not be in Giles\u2019s possession and realizes the truth. Instead of taking it back to work, he hides it in a briefcase in the closet. But someone has seen Simon in Giles\u2019s apartment.\nSimon\u2019s wife Lily finds the briefcase with the file behind Simon\u2019s shoes while she is cleaning. She knows Simon isn\u2019t guilty of espionage and can guess what happened, as she is aware that Simon went out the night before in response to a call from Giles. Lily buries the briefcase in the garden.\nSuddenly, policemen arrive to arrest Simon and search the house. They find nothing, but somehow a small camera for microfilm has been found in Simon\u2019s office.\nDunmore does an excellent job of invoking the Cold War era and of creating suspense in this novel. The authorities are misguided, as it becomes clear that the real spies are trying to frame the innocent Simon. Lily, a German Jewish refugee during World War II, is questioned as if she were a Nazi. The newspapers break the news, and Lily loses her job as a French teacher and is treated like a pariah. After a while, the novel moves its focus to the struggles of Lily and her children, who go to a small village to live.\nAlthough it took me a while to warm up to Lily and Simon, I was gripped, wondering what was going to happen to them and their three children. I liked this novel much more than I did The Greatcoat, the only other book by Dunmore I have read.\n20th century, Cold War, England, espionage, Exposure, Helen Dunmore, suspense",

        "raw_content": "Commencement Address-American College of Thessaloniki\nGood afternoon. Thank you for inviting me to speak today at this magnificent occasion. My parents are from Athens, and I\u2019ve been coming to Greece every summer since I was born, but my first time to Thessaloniki was last year and I fell in love with this beautiful seaside city. I couldn\u2019t wait to come back, so I\u2019m delighted to be here.\nI\u2019ve thought long and hard about what I\u2019ve learned from my life that I could share with you, and concluded that I should look elsewhere for wisdom. Knowing that Aristotle and Alexander the Great were from around here, I decided to look to them for some truths that might be relevant to this big day.\nAristotle said, \u201cHappiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.\u201d That sounds simple and obvious, but it\u2019s easy to get fooled into chasing momentary pleasures. While some people who appear to have everything are miserable, other people who appear to have nothing are happy. You have to consider what will bring you happiness in the long-run, not just in the short-run. In fact, many times\u2014as with addiction\u2014it is the very thing that brings you pleasure, relief or joy in the short-term that undermines your happiness in the long-term. I call this, \u201cThe cure is the poison.\u201d What you think is curing you is actually poisoning you.\nLife has beautiful chapters, and if you\u2019re lucky you can \u201chave it all,\u201d but you can\u2019t have it all at once, so be patient, enjoy the chapter you\u2019re in and don\u2019t worry about what you no longer have or what you can\u2019t have quite yet.\nHappiness doesn\u2019t always come in the package you\u2019re expecting, but if you keep track over time, you can learn to recognize what will actually bring you long-term happiness. For example, it seems really great to renovate your kitchen, but the reality is that it\u2019s not the granite on the counter that brings happiness in that kitchen; it\u2019s the moments laughing at that counter with the people you love.\nWhen you imagine marriage, you think happiness looks like a big football player or a beautiful model, but in fact happiness is spending four hours in the car with someone and never being bored. My husband, who\u2019s 25 years older than me, is brilliant. He\u2019s funny, authentic, irreverent and strong. He\u2019s not the image of how I imagined my husband would be, but we\u2019ve had an extraordinary life together.\nFiguring out what makes you happy requires some trial and error, and it changes over time. I always thought I wanted a career and no children. I don\u2019t know why, but suddenly when I turned 28 that all changed and I desperately wanted to have children. Our four kids turned out to be the biggest joy and the highest meaning of my life.\nSo, how do you go about finding happiness? I\u2019d like to give you some advice that Aristotle may have said, or should have said, which is: get off your phones. Turn off facebook and instagram. There\u2019s a real world happening around you: food to taste, flowers to smell, sunsets to witness, waters to swim, and music to sing.\nHappiness requires, first and foremost, a sense of self. Aristotle said, \u201cKnowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.\u201d There was a time when I dreamed of being a professional piano player who played in a bar. The sad part about that story is that the reason it never happened is not because I realized that being an entrepreneur was a more fulfilling goal, but because I wasn\u2019t good enough at piano to do it. Find a dream that is at least somewhat consistent with your strengths. You can try to fight your genetic make-up, but it probably won\u2019t end well.\nThe surprising thing about your identity is that it doesn\u2019t really change. I\u2019m the same person today as I was back when I was graduating college. I didn\u2019t become more careful about decisions, more observant, more patient waiting, or better at remembering names. Who you are now is pretty much who you are. So, while you will hopefully grow as a person, don\u2019t expect any big changes in your personality.\nBeing true to yourself requires discipline to walk away from other paths in life which might be easier, or bring external pleasures, like money, or the approval of your parents, friends or society. For me, it meant turning away from Math, which I loved and was encouraged to pursue, in order to try business, which was a better fit for my personality. Recently it meant choosing not to go to a startup conference where people knew me and instead going to a writing conference where I was one of the masses.\nBeing authentic means letting go of the image that you, your parents or others have created for you. There are many people in the world who have accomplished any one of the things that you\u2019ve accomplished, but there is nobody that has the combination of interests and capabilities as you, and that\u2019s what makes you more valuable to the right employer and the right life partner. Embrace your inner freak.\nBeing true to yourself requires a unification between what you think and feel, what you say and what you do. It means thinking not just about what you want, and how you\u2019re going to get it, but also WHY. For me, it meant dropping piano after many, many years of hard work, because it wasn\u2019t giving me the joy I got from writing.\nThe choices you make in your life will determine who you become and what sort of life you lead. Probably the most important decisions are the people you have by your side and the relationships you develop with them: your romantic partner, your friends, your children, your colleagues, and your boss. Even your extended network can be hugely valuable to you in ways you can\u2019t imagine, so take advantage of the relationships you\u2019ve built here and don\u2019t lose touch.\nHappiness is often found in the pursuit of your goals and dreams, which might require a little risk-taking. When I was 28, with my Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering from MIT, I knew I wanted to start and run my own business, but I wanted management experience, so I applied for management positions, but I was told that I lacked the experience and I was turned down. I didn\u2019t feel ready to start my own business, but nobody would hire me, so four of us started Z Corporation. By the time we sold the business after ten years, we had 125 employees and were selling 3D printers all over the world. I made plenty of mistakes during those ten years, but in the end it was the right thing to pursue at that time.\nSometimes deciding on your goal is the hardest part. The state of confusion and uncertainty that comes from not knowing what direction to go in next is very difficult. I suspect some of you may be faced with this in about two hours, after you receive your diplomas. There have been tough moments in my life when I didn\u2019t know what to do. I couldn\u2019t define my goals and I felt lost\u2014like after we sold our business. The way I dug myself out of that hole was to try to remember when I was happy and what I liked to do in the past. I started writing fiction, which had been a passion for me all through college and even into my 20\u2019s.\nPursuing your passion is a good starting point for defining your dream, because you\u2019ll always work harder at what you love. But keep in mind that a huge percentage of your life is spent at work, and work is what pays the bills, so you want to find a career that is some optimum between making money and being interesting. Sometimes the best way to pursue your passion is to build a career outside your passion so you can afford your passion. For example, you could choose like Charles Ives to work in insurance and compose music in your free time. That may be a more preferable compromise than struggling as a jingle writer for TV ads. One path isn\u2019t more true than the other.\nThe nice thing about pursuing your dream is that, even if you fail, you will have at least enjoyed the process. I have been writing now for ten years and I still don\u2019t have my novel published, only a short story and an essay. I\u2019m rejected all the time, but I always try to get feedback to improve my writing and to move in a more promising direction. Every time I stand back to question why I\u2019m still writing, it\u2019s because I love it. Even if I never get anything published again, it will have made my life better. When you fail\u2014which you should do periodically, or else it means you\u2019re not taking any risk\u2014then make sure to learn from it. You can walk away from failure by gaining more than you lose. It\u2019s about what you make of it. Think back on your hardest times\u2014your moment of complete despair. And look where you are now! You learned, maybe changed direction, or worked a little harder, and all of that paid off.\nSo here we are in Greece, a country of tasty food, strong families, the sea, an untiring sun every morning, the ever-blue sky, and those magic islands\u2014most importantly, a deep fabric of social networks\u2014the real kind, not the facebook kind. Greece is in many ways like you fresh graduates: at a crossroads, trying to figure out what\u2019s next. This is a critical moment in its history. Greece needs to balance its need for short-term relief with its desire for a flourishing long-term future, just like you. The word \u201ccrisis\u201d comes from the Greek, and means \u201ca condition of instability or danger, leading to a decisive change.\u201d As you know, the economic crisis depleted an entire swath of jobs without providing new ones to replace them. Whenever something bad happens, we as individuals or collectively as a society have a choice as to whether to complain and become bitter about what befalls us or whether to use the bad event as an impetus to make change and find a better path. Your generation has the potential to radically change the face of Greece. You are connected to the rest of the world and understand what it takes to be competitive on a world landscape.\nOne of the most fulfilling sources of happiness is having an impact and making change in the world around you. Stay and do that. Greece needs clear-minded, well-educated youth to do nothing less than help steer it on a new course. In just a blink of an eye, your generation will be leading the world, and you\u2019ll know these people: the politicians, entrepreneurs, journalists, artists and teachers who shape lives and countries. You can even be one of them. Forget about the American Dream. You should create the Greek Dream.

        "raw_content": "A graduate of Georgetown University Law School and involved in community engagement at the White House under President Obama, Ahmad Murrar recently returned to his hometown of Milwaukee to plant roots for his professional career.\nWith a passion for the law, he remains focused on public service and involved with helping to empower Muslims in the region.\nQ&A with Ahmad Murrar\nWhere do you work and what makes your role awesome?\nI\u2019m an Attorney in the downtown Milwaukee office of an international law firm, Foley & Lardner LLP. It\u2019s the largest law firm in the city, one of the biggest in the country, and was established in 1842 with the original office being founded here in Milwaukee. I\u2019m an associate in the business litigation and dispute resolution practice group.\nThere are so many things that make Foley & Lardner such an awesome place to work. We have amazing attorneys from all over the country working here who provide great mentorship. But I think my favorite thing has to be the firm\u2019s commitment to the city. Foley is involved in tons of different sectors of Milwaukee. A lot of the attorneys serve on the boards of non-profits, as community business leaders, and are politically involved. The firm is also really great at encouraging their attorneys to do pro-bono work. So while we get to work with some of the top companies in different industries, we\u2019re also given the resources and time to be involved in our city to fulfill our civic duty as lawyers and make a positive impact. Since starting here in October, I\u2019ve gotten involved in a lot of civil rights cases.\nHow long have you lived in Milwaukee and what brought you here?\nI was born and raised here in Milwaukee. My family originally came here from the West Bank, near Jerusalem. I also went to college here at Marquette University. I was lucky enough to have some time to grow outside the city as well. I spent some time living in London, Minneapolis, the West Bank, and Chicago before going to Washington DC for law school at Georgetown Law.\nWhile I was living in DC is when I really decided I wanted to come back. I spent some time working at the White House under President Obama where I worked with local government officials, and learned the importance of being involved in your local community. I realized there that, despite living in larger cities, I always felt myself connected to Milwaukee and always felt an itch to eventually come back home. The sense of community is much stronger here. I also realized how much more impactful my law-degree could be here in Milwaukee than it might be in a place like Washington DC or New York. So when the opportunity came to work at a great law firm like Foley & Lardner in my hometown, I knew I had to take it.\nThe sense of community here in Milwaukee is really something special that you don\u2019t see in many other cities. Just about everyone and everything is connected here in some way to someone or something you might know. I also love how the city is always looking for ways to grow. Downtown is constantly developing, and there are organizations like NEWaukee throughout the city creating new events that connect everyone. All the festivals in the summer always gives us something to do when the weather is warm. Not to mention everything is about a 15-minute drive away.\nWhat is something that is missing from our community that you would love to see implemented?\nWhile I think the street car is a good start, I would love to see it eventually used and expanded to be a form of new mass public transportation for the city. Something that can easily connect residents to work opportunities in different parts of Milwaukee, and hopefully the entire state. Right now everything is fairly close by, but you still need a car to really get anywhere.\nWhat is one word that you would use to describe Milwaukee?\nCozy. A lot of my classmates from college are from bigger cities like Chicago and didn\u2019t like the city at first. But, like always, it eventually grew on them and they ended up staying here after college with plans to stay here much longer. They all call the city \u201ccozy\u201d and love it just as much as I do.\nIf you could create one thing in Milwaukee, what would it be?\nIf I could create one thing in Milwaukee, it would be a non-profit that provides free legal services to people in this city who can\u2019t afford it, with convenient locations in different parts of the city. It would help them with any legal issue that they may need help with. Whether its filing the paper-work to start a business, to dealing with an issue with your landlord. There\u2019s a legal aspect to just about everything, but legal help is also really expensive so people are forced to try and do it alone.\nWhat is your biggest hope for this city?\nMy biggest hope is that Milwaukee becomes one of the most equitable places to live in the country for people of color, instead of one of the worst. I read a study a while ago saying some areas of Milwaukee have a worse infant mortality rate than the Gaza Strip. Our city can, and should, do better. A lot of other studies too that list us as one of the most segregated cities in America. Also, I really hope the Bucks eventually win a championship.\nWhat do you think is going to be a game changer for the city in the year of 2019?\nWe have a new governor, a new downtown arena, a new streetcar system, a new downtown tower with the Northwestern Mutual building going up, and mid-term voter turnout in 2018 was similar to that of a presidential election with young people getting involved in droves. I think all of these things are going to have a huge impact on the city for 2019 and the years to come.\nOriginally published as by NEWaukee\nPreviousMuslim community donates food to federal airport staff working without pay\nNextResearch study finds 20% of all Muslims in America are black\nMolly Collins: Learning to be an effective advocate",

I couldn\u2019t agree more that its the best way to say \u201cthank you\u201d. These days especially, getting anything hand written in the mail is a treat. Our family rule for gifts was this: if you were able to thank the person in person, a note wasn\u2019t necessary.

Its capital is La Trinidad.\nThe highland province is known as the \"Salad Bowl of the Philippines\" because of its huge production of upland vegetables.\nLocated in the interior of Benguet is the highly urbanized city of Baguio, which is independent of the province.\nThe mountainous area now covered by Benguet has been settled for millennia by several peoples collectively known as the Igorots. Two of these groups, the Ibaloi and the Kankanaey, are dominant ethnolinguistic groups of the area. In the pre-conquest period, these tribes enjoyed flourishing trade with lowland groups immediately to their west and south, such as the Pangasinense.\nAt the beginning of the Spanish Era, colonisers heard of the rich gold mines in the mountains and attempted to colonize the highlands, but failed. In 1572, Juan de Salcedo led a small expedition into the southern part of Benguet, but the natives forced it to retreat. The first major expedition into the mountains occurred in 1620, when Spanish explorers went into the La Trinidad Valley and briefly controlled some Igorot gold mines, but abandoned them after a few years.\nThis page contains text from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia - https://wn.com/Benguet\nBurgos (Spanish pronunciation: [\u02c8bur\u0263os], UK /\u02c8b\u028a\u0259r\u0261\u0252s/, US /\u02c8b\u028a\u0259r\u0261o\u028as/) is a city in northern Spain and the historic capital of Castile. It is situated on the confluence of the Arlanz\u00f3n river tributaries, at the edge of the Iberian central plateau. It has about 180,000 inhabitants in the actual city and another 20,000 in the metropolitan area. It is the capital of the province of Burgos, in the autonomous community of Castile and Le\u00f3n. Burgos was once the capital of the Crown of Castile, and the Burgos Laws or Leyes de Burgos which first governed the behaviour of Spaniards towards the natives of the Americas were promulgated here in 1512.\nIt has many historic landmarks, of particular importance; the Cathedral of Burgos (declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984), seat of the Metropolitan Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Burgos, the Las Huelgas Reales Monastery and Miraflores Charterhouse. A large number of churches, palaces and other buildings from the medieval age remain. The city is surrounded by the Fuentes Blancas and the Paseo de la Isla parks.\nThis page contains text from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia - https://wn.com/Burgos\nThe province of Burgos is a province of northern Spain, in the northeastern part of the autonomous community of Castile and Le\u00f3n. It is bordered by the provinces of Palencia, Cantabria, Vizcaya, \u00c1lava, La Rioja, Soria, Segovia, and Valladolid. Its capital is the city of Burgos.\nThe Cartularies of Valpuesta from the monastery Santa Mar\u00eda de Valpuesta, in Burgos, are considered to be the oldest known documents containing words written in Spanish language.\nSince 1964, archaeologists have been working at numerous areas of the Archaeological Site of Atapuerca, where they have found ancient hominid and human remains, the former dating to more than one million years ago, with artefacts from the Palaeolithic and Bronze Ages of man. The site has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.\nThe province has an area of 14,300 km\u00b2 and a population of approximately 375,000 of whom nearly half live in the capital. The other locations higher than 20,000 inhabitants apart from Burgos are Miranda de Ebro and Aranda de Duero, both very industrialized.

The Nobel-winning novelist was born on February 27, 1902.\nHis first critical and commercial success was Tortilla Flat set in and around Monterey, California, and featuring a small band of ne\u2019er-do-well paisanos living for wine and good times after World War I. The novel was a sort of rogue\u2019s tale, full of rough and earthy humor. From here Steinbeck moved on to more serious portrayals of the economic problems facing the rural working class in the social novels for which he became known \u2014 In Dubious Battle in 1936, Of Mice and Men in 1937, and his most important work The Grapes of Wrath in 1939, the saga of hardscrabble Oklahoma tenant farmers who became America\u2019s migrant workers.\nSteinbeck\u2019s California did not take kindly to his portrayal. His books were banned, and in his hometown, twice burned in public protests. In fact, his books were banned in schools and libraries throughout the country and continued to be well into this century. Steinbeck was one of the ten most banned authors from 1990 to 2004 (according to the American Library Association), Of Mice and Men, sixth out of the top 100 banned books.\nLater novels include Cannery Row, East of Eden, Travels with Charley, and The Winter of Our Discontent. Steinbeck died in 1968.",

        "raw_content": "Posted 10:07 pm, February 13, 2019, by Tribune Media Wire\nCOLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. \u2013 The owner of the Colorado sporting goods store said he doesn\u2019t regret taking a stand against Nike over the company\u2019s signature Colin Kaepernick ad campaign, but he admits it probably contributed to the ultimate failure of his business.\nStephen Martin told KOAA that he decided Sunday night to close Prime Time Sports for good because he \u201cjust can\u2019t keep the doors open anymore.\u201d\nMartin decided to stop selling Nike merchandise in September of 2018 and posted a large sign in the window of the Colorado Springs store that read: \u201cStill choosing to stand / All Nike 1/2 price / \u201cJust doing it.\u201d\nOver the next several months, Martin said his stand against Nike turned out too difficult to uphold financially.\n\u201cBeing a sports store without Nike is kind of like being a milk store without milk or a gas station without gas,\u201d he told KOAA. \u201cHow do you do it? They have a monopoly on jerseys.\u201d\nThe Nike campaign produced heated debate on social media after featuring Kaepernick, the first NFL player to kneel during the national anthem at the beginning of the 2016 season. He did so to protest police brutality and racial inequality.\nOne ad image featured the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback\u2019s face with the text: \u201cBelieve in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.\u201d Kaepernick, who was never signed by another team, is now suing and claims NFL teams colluded against him.\nWhile some viewed the symbolic act of kneeling, which was adopted by other NFL players and spread to other sports, as an essential American right to protest, others viewed it as disrespectful.\nMartin, who has called Nike \u201cthe mother of all harlots\u201d for its use of the term \u201csacrifice everything,\u201d told KOAA he even canceled a 2016 store appearance by Denver Broncos star Brandon Marshall, who also decided to kneel for the anthem.\n\u201cAs much as I hate to admit this, perhaps there are more Brandon Marshall and Colin Kaepernick supporters out there than I realized,\u201d he told KOAA.\nMartin says it\u2019s not just the lack of Nike products, but also the loss of sales to online giants like Amazon that have been too hard to compete with.\nHe said he\u2019s now trying to help his staff find jobs before closing for good in about a month.\nWhile he\u2019s sorry to lose the business, Martin said he\u2019d rather be able to live with himself.\nChristian Pulisic signs for Chelsea to become most expensive soccer signing in US history",

        "raw_content": "Home | PHP\nThe release of PHP 7.0 bought with it numerous features, vastly improving the performance and security of PHP applications. Since they\u2019re known for frequent updates, however, it comes as no surprise that the core PHP maintenance team had even more up their sleeves.\nDecember 6th, 2018 saw the launch of PHP 7.3 \u2013 the most recent update for this key scripting language. The update brings a host of new features and functionality to the table, including bug fixes and another boost in performance speed.\nIn this post, we\u2019ll explore some of the exciting new elements included in PHP 7.3. Let\u2019s get started!\nA Brief Introduction to PHP (And Why It Matters)\nPHP is a widely-used, open-source, and general-purpose scripting language that is especially well suited for web development. PHP can be easily embedded into HTML, meaning that it is both accessible and flexible.\nThis scripting language was first developed in 1994 by Rasmus Lerdorf. He created the language entirely for personal use, hence the original name: \u201cPersonal Home Page Tools\u201d. Despite its humble beginnings, PHP is now one of the most commonly-used server side programming languages in the world.\nThat\u2019s because PHP is generally considered simple enough for beginners to understand, yet it offers advanced features that more experienced developers can take advantage of. Regardless of your level of expertise, having a basic understanding of PHP is handy if you\u2019re in the business of running or building websites.\nPHP is compatible with all major Operating Systems (OSs), and can also be used with popular database tools like MySQL. It\u2019s often used to create dynamic content, such as PDFs, images, and videos. What\u2019s more, it\u2019s always being updated, in order to provide new features and improve performance.\n3 Key Changes Introduced in PHP 7.3\nPHP 7.3 is the most recent in a long line of updates to this scripting language, as the developers are constantly making changes and improvements. The latest version of PHP brings a number of exciting changes to the table \u2013 let\u2019s explore three of the most prominent.\n1. Flexible Heredoc and Nowdoc Syntaxes\nPerhaps one of the most relevant improvements PHP 7.3 brings is an update to the existing heredoc and nowdoc syntaxes. These are two key methods for defining strings within PHP.\nTraditionally, these syntaxes have required that the ending identifier should be the first string appearing in a new line. The update within PHP 7.3 brings two changes: it enables the closing marker for indenting, and removes the new line requirement after the closing marker. This is especially useful when using Heredoc in an already-nested context.\nHeredoc and nowdoc syntaxes have very rigid requirements that have often caused them to be ignored by developers. Their usage in code can look \u2018ugly\u2019, and harm readability. The 7.3 update brings an improved look and boosted readability to these key syntaxes.\n2. A Boost in Performance Speed\nWhen PHP 7.0 was released, it claimed to be twice as fast as PHP 5.6. Now, PHP 7.3 is 31% faster than PHP 7.0 \u2013 meaning that it smashes the previous benchmark out of the water.\nIt\u2019s also just shy of being 10% faster than PHP 7.2, meaning that this update brings dramatically-improved performance speed no matter what previous version you were using. This is important, since performance plays a huge role in creating a positive user experience. Just to give one example, when Mozilla shaved 2.2 seconds off its landing page\u2019s loading time, Firefox downloads increased by 15.4%.\nSlow-loading pages can mean loosing out on potential customers, as they\u2019ll often move on to a faster service. Fortunately, the new boost to PHP should benefit sites that rely on this scripting language. Plus, a faster programming speed also means that developers are able to work more efficiently.\n3. Allowance for a Trailing Comma in Function Calls\nTrailing commas are commas added to a list of elements, parameters, or properties. They can come in handy, as they allow for cleaner code that is simpler to understand and edit.\nPHP already permitted trailing commas in arrays. Now, the 7.2 update brings the addition of commas in grouped namespaces. PHP 7.3 enables developers to add trailing commas in function declarations. However, it\u2019s important to note that this change will affect function calls only \u2013 function declaration syntax isn\u2019t going to change.\nWhile these are some of the most prominent changes PHP 7.3 brings, they\u2019re just the tip of the iceberg. The update also includes Argon2 password hash enhancements, and a few new functions. You can check out the PHP website for a more extensive list of features.\nAs one of the most popular open-source scripting languages, PHP is known for its frequent updates and improvements in user experience. The latest release, PHP 7.3, is no different \u2013 bringing with it plenty of new and improved functionality.\nIn this post, we explored a few of the new features this PHP update includes. These are:\nFurther improvements to the existing heredoc and nowdoc syntaxes.\nAn increase in overall performance speed.\nThe ability to add a trailing comma in function calls.\nDo you have any more questions about the PHP 7.3 release?

        "title": "Abby the Librarian: Book Review: Fat Cat",
        "raw_content": "Fat Cat by Robin Brande. Grades 8+. Knopf Books for Young Readers, October 2009. Review copy provided by my local library.\nCat Locke is taking a seriously difficult science class this year and as part of that class, she has to pick a science project to work on and enter in the annual science fair. A winning project could be her ticket to the Ivy Leagues, so Cat knows it's got to be good. The trick is that her teacher is making them base their projects on a picture they draw out of his pile. She bravely goes to the front of the room to pick her fate, but her heart sinks when she looks at the picture she's chosen. It's a picture of early people, hominids. Naked hominids. What kind of project can she make out of that?\nIn a flash of inspiration, Cat decides that she'll try an experiment on herself. Seven months of living like an early hominid. That means walking to school instead of driving, no alarm clock, no cell phone... and eating a diet like early man's (i.e. mostly nuts and berries). Cat's hoping to win the science fair... but she's also hoping to see some changes in herself and find out what'll happen when she looks good instead of being Fat Cat. The results are in... and they're not what she expected.\nI liked this book, I did. But there's a lot going on here. If the book had been pared down a bit, I think it might have been great. As it is, I liked it, but I didn't love it.\nI liked that Cat is science-minded. She's smart, she's sassy, she's a good friend. There is a lot to like about Cat.\nI liked the secondary characters quite a bit. I liked that Cat, as her body changed, went out with a couple different guys and didn't necessarily fall head over heels just because they paid attention to her. (Again with the smart! Cat is smart!)\nI liked that Cat explores the idea of eating organically and avoiding processed foods. I found it to be a little preachy at first, but by the end of the book I was intrigued about the idea myself. I think the book might inspire teens to examine their own diets and consider eliminating some of the junk.\nNow, the thing I didn't like was that the novel kind of overflowed with stuff. I mean, in addition to the stuff Cat's doing for her project, there was this whole sub-plot about a failing vegetarian restaurant. I actually liked the restaurant scenes quite a bit, but I felt like they belonged in a different book. The novel would have been better overall with a little paring down.\nAlso, I did feel like there were parts of the novel that felt a little preachy about eating a healthy diet. And yes, I know that healthy eating is good, but it seemed like it was a little bit too easy for Cat to give up all the junk food she'd been eating for years. However, I freely admit that I am picky about my fat-girl books, so that might just be my own bias.\nStill, I liked the book enough to want to tell you about it, so do pick it up if you're so inclined. Let me know what you think.\nAnd if you want to know what other bloggers think, check out reviews at Steph Su Reads, Book Moot, Pinot and Prose, and Frenetic Reader.\nThis book is on my wish list. Thank you for the balanced review.\nI thought this was fun and the pacing was neither break-neck nor too slow.\nGood to read about smart kids.",

When a taxon disappears from the fossil record, the usual presumption is that it has gone extinct. Occasionally, however, a taxon thought to be extinct is found to be extant again during a later era (it may then become truly extinct during this later period). In extreme cases, organisms believed to be extinct may even show up among today's living biota. In acknowledgment of the New Testament biblical story in which Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, biologists coined the term \"Lazarus effect\" to refer to such rediscoveries, and \"Lazarus taxon\" to describe a species that has been seemingly resurrected from the fossil dead. See also: Animal evolution; Extinction; Extinction (paleontology); Extinction and the fossil record; Fossil; Living fossils; Macroevolution; Paleontology; Systematics\nLaonastes aenigmamus, the Laotian rock rat. This animal, once thought to be extinct, is termed a Lazarus taxon because of its 11-million-year absence from the fossil record and its identification in 2006 as a living creature. (Credit: David Redfield)\nMost gaps in the fossil record that produce a Lazarus effect are a few thousand years in length, but notable cases have exhibited gaps of millions of years. For example, the coelacanth fish (genus Latimeria) was rediscovered in 1938 after a gap in the fossil record of 66 million years, whereas the dawn redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) was presumed extinct for 2\u20135 million years until being identified as a living species in the 1940s. Even more startling, because this phenomenon has been rarely documented in mammals, was the case of a squirrel-like rodent called the Laotian rock rat (Laonastes aenigmamus). Investigators discovered this living species in 2005. In 2006, however, paleontologists pointed out that it appeared to be identical to a fossil animal that had vanished 11 million years ago. The reasons why Lazarus taxa disappear from the fossil record for such lengthy spans of time are being actively investigated. The lack of any fossil evidence or remnants in the intervening years is likely the result of a combination of factors, including the random anomalies routinely associated with the fossil record, and the ways in which the climates and environments that these organisms inhabited may not be conducive to fossil preservation.

        "raw_content": "Federal Budget Q and A | Accurium\nAustralia\u2019s 2016-17 Federal Budget proposed a number of significant superannuation reforms intended to affect SMSF professionals and trustees.\nAccurium recently held a webinar for members to discuss the impact of these changes. Members can access the recording through the TechHub by clicking here.\nIt was encouraging to see so many questions and comments submitted during the session, highlighting that SMSF practitioners are dedicated to providing clients with the right advice in regards to the proposed changes.\nOf course, it is important to remember that at this stage the Federal Budget reforms are just proposals. There is an election to be held and the proposals must pass through parliament and become law before we know for sure what we will be dealing with.\nWith over 100 questions submitted during the webinar we can determine the key areas of interest and where possible, provide you with further clarification.\nThe $1.6 million transfer limit was by far the biggest talking point, followed by the changes to the taxation of earnings on transition to retirement (TTR) pensions and the introduction of the $500,000 lifetime non-concessional cap. Some of the common questions we received are addressed below.\nQ: Since the $1.6 million cap is indexed, if a client starts a pension at 1 July 2017 with $1.6 million could they commence another pension in a few years\u2019 time with $300,000?\nA: Unfortunately not. Our understanding is that once a person has used up their transfer limit they can move no further monies into pension phase. This will be monitored through an apportionment method as the transfer limit is indexed.\nFor example, if a client was to commence a pension on 1 July 2017 with $1 million, they would have used up $1 million out of the $1.6 million transfer limit or 62.5%. They would have 37.5% remaining.\nIf, three years down the track, the transfer limit is, say, $1.8 million then the client is eligible to transfer 37.5% of the $1.8 million (i.e. $675,000) into pension phase.\nQ: If a pension drops below the $1.6 million can you roll back the pension and restart with another $1.6 million, or could you have two SMSFs each with $1.6 million in pension?\nA: It is important to recognise that the proposal is for a lifetime transfer limit. This applies per person not per fund or period of time.\nThe most someone can transfer into pension phase over their lifetime is $1.6 million (indexed in line with CPI).\nIt is our understanding that once a pension has been established, the changes in the account balance due to market movements (for example) have no effect on the transfer limit.\nTherefore a person cannot access two lots of $1.6 million by establishing pensions in two SMSFs. They only have one $1.6 million lifetime transfer limit. Also, if a pension balance falls under $1.6 million this does not mean you can roll the pension back and recommence with a full $1.6 million again. The limit is not on how much you can have in pension phase, but on how much you can transfer to pension phase.\nQ: If a person has a TTR pension in place at 1 July 2017 will this count towards the $1.6 million lifetime limit?\nA: In short, we don\u2019t know. There is no mention of how TTR pensions will be treated under the lifetime limit in the Federal Budget papers.\nHowever, due to the TTR pension not receiving a tax exemption on earnings from 1 July 2017, our expectation is that it will not be considered a tax-free retirement account and therefore will not count towards the $1.6 million lifetime transfer limit.\nIf a TTR pension is not counted towards the lifetime limit, then we would expect that when a member meets a condition of release and decides to commence a full account-based pension post 1 July 2017, which is a tax-free retirement account, then assets will be revalued and the amount transferred to the account-based pension will count towards the person\u2019s lifetime transfer limit.\nOf course, there is a chance a TTR pension will count towards the $1.6 million lifetime transfer limit\u2026 we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.\nQ: My client has already made $500,000 in non-concessional contributions. What does the new lifetime cap mean for future non-concessional contributions?\nA: The proposed lifetime non-concessional cap applies from 3 May 2016. If this does become law then the Federal Budget suggests that this client would not be able to make any further non-concessional contributions. Non-concessional contributions made post 3 May in excess of the new lifetime limit will need to be withdrawn from superannuation or be subject to the existing penalty arrangements.\nOur understanding is that spouse contributions will count as non-concessional contributions and will count towards the lifetime cap. Government co-contributions are classed as non-concessional contributions but if they remain in line with current treatment they will not count towards the lifetime cap.\nQ: My client has had multiple superannuation accounts since 2007. How do I know if they are close to exceeding the $500,000 lifetime cap?\nA: The ATO has provided the following guidance in respect to obtaining further detail about the non-concessional contributions individuals have made since 2007:\nThe ATO does not currently publish information on superannuation fund members who have contributed more than $500,000 in non-concessional contributions to their superannuation fund.\nThe ATO can calculate the non-concessional contribution amount for all superannuation fund members (from 1 July 2007 to 30 June 2015) where individuals and superannuation funds have met their lodgement obligations. The contact details to obtain this amount are:\nFor phone contact a response will be provided through a call back service within 48 hours. Written and bulk requests will take longer.\nTo ensure the ATO can provide this information to clients who have a critical need to understand their position, the ATO asks you to prioritise your requests for balance information as the ATO works towards a streamlined process that will be in place before the 1st July.\nAccurium is dedicated to help you understand the impact of the Federal Budget proposals on your retirement planning and pension strategies.

        "raw_content": "River North Chicago Restaurants & More\nRiver North is an interesting spot in Chicago. Is it truly a neighborhood? Or is it just an amalgamation of restaurants and hotels? If you pay attention to the restaurant scene in Chicago, and if you have any enthusiasm toward that scene, then you\u2019re probably shouting, \u201cOf course River North is a neighborhood!\u201d at your screen now. Many diners who are on a first name basis with their favorite servers or bartenders would argue the same point. It feels like home when you visit the River North Chicago restaurants frequently enough that they\u2019ve got your order down as soon as you walk in.\nRiver North Chicago Restaurants & More About This Area\nBut for a great many people who come downtown for work and then go straight back to their familiar stomping grounds, River North can seem like a confusing jumble. Sure, it\u2019s a bit of a revolving door of new restaurants, renovated restaurants, expanding restaurants and some national chains as well. It\u2019s a bit hard to identify a neighborhood vibe in the austere surroundings of glass and steel skyscrapers as well. But for the nine-to-fivers who call the area\u2019s restaurants home during the week, and the legions of hospitality workers who make it run smoothly each day of the week, River North is indeed a warm and welcoming place. Here\u2019s a quick guide to becoming more familiar with the neighborhood that boasts some of Chicago\u2019s most exciting concepts and boldest flavors in the restaurant scene. And for a town that\u2019s quickly becoming the culinary capital of North America, that\u2019s saying something.\nThere are no shortage of restaurants in River North, but there\u2019s an ample supply of bars and late night spots as well. Of course you could easily extend your elegant dinner at Joe\u2019s Stone Crab and linger at the bar, but you could also wander out into the streets of River North with no short supply of places to carry the night to a raucous conclusion. There are the massive bars lining Hubbard, Kinzie and Illinois if you\u2019re feeling like a throwback to college days or if there\u2019s a huge game on the screens. Or you could catch live music at House of Blues, see dueling pianos at Howl or sidle over to the home of the Blues. You can play games at the arcade bar or smash a few ping pong balls (we know a good place!) while you sip craft cocktails. If you\u2019re looking for a late night spot there are plenty of reasons to linger in River North.\nFind a Hidden Gem\nThere\u2019s no better feeling than being first out of your social group to discover a place that\u2019s worth sharing with the rest of the squad. Underground tiki bars, massive ping pong playgrounds and award winning restaurants are all tucked away in little-known spots throughout River North for the intrepid urban explorer, each of them awaiting discovery.\nThe Chicago Riverwalk is turning into the next premiere sightseeing avenue in the city. The Riverwalk is dotted with plaques and little curios to call out the historical significance of the unsung waterway that is the Chicago River. So much more has happened on the banks of the river than a bit of green dye for St. Patrick\u2019s day! And there are several restaurants in River North that take advantage of this burgeoning public space by setting up seasonal businesses along the new stretches. And of course there are established favorites with spectacular views of all the riverfront buildings on refreshing patio seats.\nSo there you have all the reasons why River North, with its many fantastic restaurants, welcoming bars and pubs, rocking music venues and places to play games and kick back, is a legitimate Chicago neighborhood.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Blog \u00bb Is anterior hip replacement better?\nThe potential problem with the anterior approach is that it is technically challenging and exposure of the femur (thigh bone) is more difficult compared to the posterior approach. This can result in component malposition or a fracture of the femur which is harder to recognise and deal with than when using other approaches. A large study by the Adelaide based Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry looked at 5499 hips done by 68 surgeons and found that there is a learning curve with the anterior approach during which the rate of revision surgery is higher.\nThere are some hips for which the anterior approach is riskier than others, mainly due to the risk of fracture. There are particular anatomical variations of the hip bones that make exposure more difficult, as does obesity, and fracture is also more likely with older patients or those with osteoporosis.\nIt\u2019s also important to recognise that all hip replacement approaches have become less invasive over the years. The long incision and prolonged hospital stay of previous decades have given way to smaller incisions and rapid mobilisation for all patients regardless of the approach.\nMy view is that the anterior approach is slightly better but only if the hip is suitable. The approach is technically challenging and should only be performed by an experienced hip replacement surgeon who is trained in the procedure. The benefits of the anterior approach are not so great that we should risk a fracture in unsuitable hips. I assess each hip on its merits and discuss the options with every patient.\nIf you would like to discuss hip replacement surgery with Dr Bauze then contact us online or click here for consulting locations and contact details.\nMore information on hip replacement surgery is available here.",

        "raw_content": "AIBS, Community Ask EPA to Rescind Proposed \"Secret Science\" Rule\nThe American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) has officially requested that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rescind its proposed rule \u201cStrengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science.\u201d The proposed rule, which would bar the use of scientific studies in drafting new regulations unless the underlying data \u201care publicly available in a manner sufficient for independent validation.\u201d\n\u201cWe support the objective of increased transparency in the rulemaking process, but the proposed rule is inadequately defined and thus itself lacks transparency and appropriate public protections,\u201d according to AIBS.\nAIBS urged EPA to \u201cinitiate a new, transparent, and interactive process with the scientific, public health, and environmental management communities, as well as other appropriate stakeholders to identify responsible and viable approaches for promoting greater understanding of the science and data used to inform EPA decision-making.\u201d Read AIBS\u2019 comments here: https://www.aibs.org/position-statements/20180713aibscommentso9.html\nAIBS was also among 69 academic, scientific, and health organizations - including several AIBS Member Societies - to release a public statement calling for EPA to withdraw its proposal. Read the press release here: https://www.michaeljfox.org/files/EPATransparencyRule.pdf\nOn July 17, 2018, EPA held a public hearing, where over a hundred speakers, including AIBS, provided oral testimony on the draft rule. A majority of the speakers, lawmakers included, criticized the proposal. Representative Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) warned that the draft rule would \u201cimpede, if not eradicate, the EPA\u2019s ability to protect Americans from significant risks to human health and to the environment\u201d and Representative Paul Tonko (D-NY) said that the proposal was \u201cill-conceived.\u201d\nWhite House Nominates Entomologist to Lead USDA Research\nPresident Trump has nominated Dr. Scott Hutchins, the Global Head of Integrated Field Sciences for Corteva Agriscience, the agriculture division of DowDuPont, for the top science role at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).\nHutchins is an entomologist with a background in insect management and crop protection. If confirmed by the Senate, he will oversee the Agricultural Research Service as the Undersecretary of Agriculture for Research, Education, and Economics.\nHutchins has a Ph.D. in entomology from Iowa State University, where he studied the effect of insect-induced injury on alfalfa. Presently, he works on pest management chemicals at Corteva and is an adjunct professor at the University of Nebraska. He has served as President of the Entomological Society of America, an AIBS Member Society.\nAgriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue commented, \u201cHis extensive background in research and commitment to sound science and data make him exceptionally qualified for this post, and I am eager to have Dr. Hutchins join the team.\u201d\nMichael Parrella, President of the Entomological Society of America, said in a statement, \u201cDr. Scott Hutchins is an ideal candidate for the role of USDA undersecretary\u2026 His credentials in both science and leadership are hard to match, and he knows first-hand the value of research, government, and industry working together to support agriculture and serve society.\u201d\nPresident Trump\u2019s previous nominee for this position, Sam Clovis, withdrew his nomination after drawing widespread criticism for his lack of qualifications and controversial comments on race.\nRevisions Proposed to Revamp Endangered Species Regulations\nThe United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have released a joint proposal to make significant revisions to regulations that implement the Endangered Species Act (ESA).\nESA was enacted in 1973 with the goal of preventing plants and animals from becoming extinct. The Administration has proposed changes to the enforcement of ESA that would make it harder to provide protections for certain species.\nThe inter-agency proposal tightens the definition of \u201cforeseeable future\u201d for making crucial ESA decisions. This is in reference to the ESA requirement that USFWS or the National Marine Fisheries Service must determine whether a species is \u201cin danger of extinction, or likely to become so within the foreseeable future\u201d when making a listing decision. Under the new proposal, foreseeable future only extends so far as officials \u201ccan reasonably determine that the conditions posing the potential danger of extinction are probable.\u201d\nThe proposal would also eliminate the \u201cblanket 4(d)\u201d rule, which allows the same broad protections for threatened species that are received by endangered species. This move, which would only cover future listings, would result in narrower protections, made on a case-by-case basis, for threatened species.\nThe Administration has also proposed removing language that guides officials to ignore economic burdens when determining how species should be protected. \u201cWe propose to remove the phrase, \u2018without reference to possible economic or other impacts of such determination,\u2019\u2026 to more closely align with the statutory language,\u201d the proposed rule reads. \u201cThe act requires the secretary to make determinations based \u2018solely on the basis of the best scientific and commercial data.\u2019\u201d\nThe proposal makes a key change to the designation of \u201ccritical habitats\u201d, which are areas essential for recovery of a species. These areas are sometimes still considered \u201ccritical\u201d when it is not occupied by the species in question. The new rules would allow USFWS and NOAA Fisheries to designate unoccupied areas \u201ccritical habitat\u201d only when the occupied areas are inadequate for the conservation of the species or if inclusion of unoccupied areas would yield other specified advantages. This could potentially shrink critical habitat.\nThe proposal has raised concerns in the conservation community. Jamie Rappaport Clark, President and CEO of the Defenders of Wildlife and former Director of USFWS said, \u201cThese regulations are the heart of how the Endangered Species Act is implemented. Imperiled species depend on them for their very lives.\u201d Clark expressed concerns that the changes \u201cwould undercut the effectiveness of the ESA and put species at risk of extinction.\u201d\n\u201cThese proposals would slam a wrecking ball into the most crucial protections for our most endangered wildlife,\u201d said Brett Hartl, Government Affairs Director at the Center for Biological Diversity. \u201cIf these regulations had been in place in the 1970s, the bald eagle and the gray whale would be extinct today.\u201d\nIt is anticipated that the proposal will be published in the Federal Register on July 25, 2018 and will invite public comment for 60 days.\nNSF To Launch \"2026 Idea Machine\" Contest\nThe National Science Foundation (NSF) will launch a contest in August 2018 that will provide the public a chance to suggest \u201cpressing research questions\u201d that need to be addressed in the next decade. The NSF 2026 Idea Machine competition aims to identify the next set of \u201cBig Ideas\u201d for future NSF investments and will \u201chelp set the U.S. agenda for fundamental research in science and engineering.\u201d\nThe competition will give researchers, the public, and other interested stakeholders the opportunity to submit online entries, starting August 31, proposing transformational research ideas that fit within the mission of the agency.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t want [the idea] to be something NSF is already doing,\u201d says Suzi Iacono, Head of NSF\u2019s Office of Integrative Activities. \u201cWe want it to be exciting, and original, and important in terms of the potential benefits to science and to society.\u201d\nNSF staff will first review the submitted ideas and then the authors of the 30 most promising ideas will be asked to submit videos for public comment. An advisory panel will review this feedback, interview the top candidates, and propose finalists. NSF will make the final decision and announce the winners in the summer of 2019. Winners will receive \u201cpublic recognition, cash prizes, and other awards.\u201d\nLawmakers Introduce Legislation Regulating Invasive Species\nSenator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and Representative Elise Stefanik (R-NY) have introduced bicameral legislation, the Invasive Fish and Wildlife Prevention Act of 2018, that would give the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) greater authority to \u201cregulate nonnative species and prohibit them from being imported or sold in the United States.\u201d\nPresently, more than 200 species have been listed as \u201cinjurious wildlife,\u201d a designation given by the USFWS to species considered harmful to wildlife and natural resources in the United States. These species cannot be imported into the country or sold without a USFWS permit. However, under the current system, the designation is given only after a species has already been introduced.\nThe bipartisan legislation would address the invasive species threat before they are imported by establishing a new injurious species listing process based on scientific risk analysis. The bill would also give USFWS the power to make emergency designations for species that pose an \u201cimminent threat.\u201d The bill does not impose restrictions on the import of dead natural history museum specimens or scientific collections as long as the specimen is adequately preserved to minimize the risk of exposure from any harmful pathogens or parasites.\n\u201cWhether it\u2019s Asian Carp in our lakes or the Emerald Ash Borer in our forests, invasive species threaten our environment and our economy, and we have to do everything we can to block them from coming into our state,\u201d said Senator Gillibrand. \u201cThe Invasive Fish and Wildlife Prevention Act would help better protect our precious natural resources, strengthen our economy, draw tourism to our state, and provide clean drinking water to New Yorkers.\u201d\nAsian Carp is a prominent threat to the Great Lakes, which provide drinking water to over 30 million people and support a $7 billion fishing industry and a $15.5 billion boating industry. Ash trees across 31 states have been infested by the Emerald Ash Borer beetle resulting in negative ecological impacts.\nRepresentative Stefanik said, \u201cThis important bill will give the Fish and Wildlife Service needed flexibility to regulate and combat invasive pests that threaten our region, and I urge my colleagues in the House to support it.\u201d\nNSF Announces STEM Education Advisory Panel\nThe National Science Foundation (NSF) has appointed eighteen members to a new advisory panel to promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. NSF consulted with the Department of Education, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in making the appointments.\nThe new STEM Education Advisory Panel, composed of individuals from nonprofit, business, academic, and informal education organizations, will be chaired by Gabriela Gonzalez, Deputy Director of the Intel Foundation, Intel Corporation. David Evans, Executive Director of the National Science Teachers Association, will serve as Vice Chair.\nThe advisory panel was authorized by Congress to advise the Committee on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education (CoSTEM) on STEM education related issues. The panel will advise CoSTEM on updating the 2013-2018 Federal STEM Education 5-Year Strategic Plan to improve the efficiency and impact of federal STEM education investments. The panel will also be responsible for assessing CoSTEM\u2019s activities mandated by the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act.\n\u201cThis new panel has an opportunity to bring fresh eyes and novel approaches to CoSTEM\u2019s next five-year strategic plan, which will help enhance the nation\u2019s entire STEM ecosystem,\u201d said NSF Director and CoSTEM Co-Chair France C\u00f3rdova. \u201cNSF continues to generate benefits for society through STEM research. To fulfill that mission, we and our federal partners need to make strategic investments to create new generations of discoverers.\u201d\nSee the complete list of STEM Education Advisory Panel members here: https://nsf.gov/ehr/panel_members.jsp\nIn response to this frustration heard from many graduate students, AIBS has developed a program to help scientists hone and practice the skills needed to secure employment. AIBS\u2019 Employment Acquisition Skills Boot Camp for Scientists is an intensive, two-day program that is a blend of lecture and hands-on exercises. Designed by scientists and a career coach, this program provides graduate students to senior scientists with the information, tools, and resources required to successfully identify and secure employment in a diversity of career pathways, including science policy, communications, program management, government, non-governmental organizations, international development, and others.\nMeet with Your Lawmakers to Inform Science Policy this Summer\nThis national initiative, organized by the American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) is an opportunity for scientists from across the country to meet with their federal or state elected officials to showcase the people, facilities, and equipment that are required to support and conduct scientific research and education.\nNow in its tenth year, the event enables scientists, graduate students, representatives of research facilities, and people affiliated with scientific collections to meet with their federal or state elected officials without traveling to Washington, DC. Participants may either invite their elected officials to visit their research facility or can meet at the policymaker\u2019s local office. AIBS works with participants to schedule the meetings with lawmakers and prepare participants through online training and one-on-one support.\nThe event is made possible by AIBS, with the support of event sponsors Botanical Society of America, Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology, Helminthological Society of Washington, Natural Science Collections Alliance, Paleontological Society, Society for the Study of Evolution, and Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections.\nParticipation is free, but registration is required. Registration will close on July 19, 2018. For more information and to register, visit https://www.aibs.org/public-policy/congressionaldistrictvisits.html.\nThe National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) have released a new report on the research agenda for indoor microbiology, human health, and buildings. The report Microbiomes of the Built Environment examines the current knowledge in the research on indoor environments, examples of knowledge gaps, and new tools that may facilitate the understanding of ecosystems in built environments, in order to better predict and manage indoor interactions of humans with microorganisms and design healthy and sustainable buildings.

Pressure by the international community and NGOs eventually lead to the country voting for a full ban on the sales of ivory.\nNow that both China and Hong Kong have banned the sale, there is still the risk of affluent Chinese going abroad to buy ivory from other parts of Asia - in countries like Laos and Vietnam, where laws are less strict.\n\"Once the trade becomes illegal in one place, it pops up somewhere, but it's always in smaller quantities,\" Peter Knights, chief executive officer of WildAid, a group working towards completely rooting out illegal wildlife trade, told Al Jazeera early January.\nJan Vertefeuille, senior director for advocacy for WWF, said now that the three of the world's largest ivory markets - US, China and Hong Kong - have committed to ending ivory sales, other countries should follow.\n\"Other governments must urgently follow suit and ensure ivory traffickers have nowhere left to sell their ill-gotten wares.\"",

'The wolf thought to himself, \"What a tender young creature! what a nice plump mouthful - she will be better to eat than the old woman. I must act craftily, so as to catch both.\"' This collection of much-loved folk tales features such familiar characters as daring Little Red Riding Hood, crafty Rumpelstiltskin and the ill-fated infants Hansel and Gretel. They are as magical and fascinating today as when they were first told, despite - or because of - the underlying darkness at their heart. Collected in a single volume by the brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, and first published in 1812, these stories are known and loved by adults and children alike, and have grown to be an invaluable part of our collective imagination.\n'I, for one, devoured fairy tales as a little girl' J.K. Rowling\n\"Everyone should possess and know Grimm's Fairy Tales - one of the great books of the world\" New York Times Book Review \"Rediscover stories from a time long before Disney got its hands on Rapunzel, of beautiful orphaned daughters and noble princes, when children still wished upon the moon.

Their father, Phillipp, a judge, was ambitious and prosperous, while their mother, Dorothea, was a devoted and caring housewife, and they also had three more brothers and a sister. They lived in the town of Steinau in central Germany, in a large comfortable home. All the children went to school, and Jacob and Wilhelm were particularly bright and hard-working. Philipp Grimm died suddenly in 1796 and Dorothea and her children had to live on a much smaller income, though arrangements were made for Jacob and Wilhelm to continue their studies at a prestigious high school. Although the brothers were very different - Jacob was serious and strong, while Wilhelm was outgoing, cheerful and asthmatic - they were inseparable and totally devoted to one another.They were both determined to prove themselves to be the best students at their school, studying for more than twelve hours a day. At university, the brothers discovered the study of ancient German literature and folk tales and began to collect these fairy stories, which were eventually published in two large volumes in 1812 and 1815. The brothers worked in business and law before both becoming librarians in the King's library, and together they wrote many books about German literature, language and folklore, as well as beginning work on the first German dictionary. Wilhelm died in 1859, and Jacob became more solitary than ever, though he continued to work on the brothers' shared projects until his own death in 1863.\nIllustrations : b/w chapter headings\nAuthor : Brothers Grimm",

        "raw_content": "Jul 23, 2018 - Woody Collins, The American Equity Underwriters, Inc.\nIt's no secret that being a leader can be a challenge. While it comes naturally to some people, others advance to positions in their career that require leadership, and they lack some of the core skills necessary to lead people effectively.\nThis is what is meant by the phrase, \u201cmanagement is learned, leadership is earned.\" Just because someone is in a management position doesn't necessarily mean he or she is viewed as a leader. Only the people who they are intended to lead can make that call. Conversely, there are plenty of individuals who are not in management positions but are exceptional leaders.\nHere\u2019s an example of the difference between a manager and a leader. A manager (or supervisor) may rise to that position because he or she is the best at their job and all its processes. They set the example of \u201cthe way things should be done\u201d so others follow suit \u2013 building a bulkhead, laying the key of a vessel, unloading a ship or stacking containers.\nWhat if that manager/supervisor lacks poor leadership skills? They may be able to demonstrate the correct procedures, but if they can\u2019t motivate others to build that bulkhead or unload that vessel, there\u2019s a problem. Are they able to motivate employees to be excited about coming to work, or about feeling accomplished that the end of the day? This is why having good leaders is so important \u2013 ensuring that employees are motivated, engaged, and positive reduces turnover and increases productivity. From a safety perspective, it also helps to reduce accidents and related costs.\nFortunately, leadership skills can be learned and easily applied with some practice. This article outlines some simple concepts that hopefully will make leadership seem less daunting and can be incorporated into your behavior as a leader right away.\n1. Listen more than you speak.\nOne of the most fundamental ways to be a better leader is to practice good listening skills. Have you ever been engaged in a conversation with someone and while they are talking, you find yourself drawing conclusions or thinking about how you're going to respond before they even finish talking? When you do that, you are listening to answer instead of listening to understand. It can be incredibly frustrating for someone who looks to you for guidance or support because they may not feel like their concerns or opinions are ever actually heard.\nWhen I first became a supervisor at a shipyard earlier in my career, I had an employee approach me to tell me he wanted to talk about his safety glasses. My first response was, \"There's nothing to talk discuss. You need to wear your safety glasses at all times. Now go back to work.\"\nHe approached me two more times to talk about his safety glasses and each time I responded in the same authoritative, dismissive manner. Soon after that, he turned in his resignation. I couldn't understand why and assured him that he was doing a fantastic job.\n\u201cI can\u2019t work with somebody who won\u2019t listen to me,\u201d he explained. \u201cThree times I came to talk to you about my safety glasses. It\u2019s not that I don\u2019t want to wear them; the ones I have are very uncomfortable. All I wanted to know is where I can get a different pair that I enjoy wearing.\u201d\nUnfortunately, there was nothing I could say or do \u2013 the relationship was already ruined, and he quit. That was a defining moment for me as a supervisor and manager. I never listened to what he had to say \u2013 just jumped to conclusions and lost a great employee because of it.\nSometimes, when people are placed in leadership positions, it is because they have considerable experience. Just because you have more years of experience doesn't mean that you should be dismissive of the ideas or concerns of others. Often, new employees can give different perspectives or approaches which could make processes more efficient or safe. By listening to employees and showing that you are receptive, they will view you as a stronger, more trustworthy leader.\n2. Sell your ideas through meaningful examples instead of demanding compliance.\nLearning how to convey a message or directive through the art of storytelling will help you become a better leader as well. For example, in the previous section, I told you a personal account of a time when I exhibited poor leadership. You could probably envision the employee coming to talk to me and me ignoring him. Being able to picture that scene in your head helped you to internalize what could happen if you don't pay attention to your employees. Storytelling captivates audiences, and if you can tell a story that someone can relate to, they will listen and want to follow you.\nIf you\u2019re facing a situation with an employee where you need to give them direction, think about a time when you first started out and someone had to teach you. Instead of just telling them what to do (or what not to do) without listening to them, think about how you could give them an example of when you were in a similar situation. If they understand that you can relate to what they are dealing with or learning, they are more likely to embrace your recommendations and trust that you are just trying to help make them better.\n3. Practice and encourage team-playing.\nNo matter the size of your organization, you interact with coworkers every day. Letting others shine and encouraging innovation helps you to become a more likable leader. More importantly, as a leader, don't just give an idea to your employees and colleagues and tell them what you want. Give the idea and ask them to consider how it can be accomplished. How can everyone work together? How can they help support the goal or the project as a team? Get input from all levels of the organization. If everyone buys into the concept and goal that the team is collectively trying to achieve, and you can facilitate that as a leader, people will want to follow you. Team playing is the key to achieving any goal.\n4. Be authentic and transparent in your interactions.\nVulnerability and humility are the hallmarks of an authentic leader. Effective leaders are who they say they are. Your employees and colleagues want you to be authentic in your interactions and lead by example. Not long ago, we were able to separate our \"public\" selves and our \"private\" selves. That is now more difficult with the influx of social media and an often-blurred line between work and home life. The trend we see with emerging leaders is that they are transparent about who they are all the time and merge their personal and professional lives together (without compromising a reasonable level of privacy and professionalism). When others see that you are consistent in all aspects of your life, they will trust you more and want to follow you more consistently as well.\nClosely tied to being authentic is being transparent. Leaders who attempt to keep secrets will eventually be exposed. Your openness and honesty will lead to happier employees and colleagues because they will never question where you stand on matters (or with them). More importantly, the more transparent you are in your interactions, the less you have to worry about what you said to who, who you didn\u2019t say the right thing to, or who you talked about to someone else. This peace of mind alone will help you be a better leader. Those who work with you will respect you because they will not worry about you taking a different position depending on who you are talking to.\nThere's never been a faster-changing workplace than the one we experience today. Leaders must be flexible as they manage opportunities and challenges, and be prepared to pivot at the right moment when an issue arises. Most organizations seek leaders who exhibit humility and willingness to adapt, not stubbornness to change. The quality of adaptability is closely tied to being a good listener. If you are willing to adjust your approach based on the input of your employees and colleagues, you create an environment where collaboration is celebrated and people feel comfortable chiming in on how to make things better. I can't think of anyone who wouldn't want to work in an environment like that \u2013 and it is strong leaders who make that possible.\n6. Be responsive and considerate.\nWhen an employee calls you on the phone, talks to you in the field, or sends an email, be responsive to them. Understandably, there are times when you may not have time to be immediately responsive. In those instances, say, \"I am tied up now, but I promise to follow up with you tomorrow. Is that okay?\" In most cases, it will be.\nIf you tend to forget to respond to people, figure out a way to remind yourself, such as writing yourself a note, sending yourself an email, or even putting it on your calendar. This one is non-negotiable; when your employees reach out to you, you must follow up with them. If you don\u2019t and choose to ignore them, they will not follow you. They will not be part of your team. That can create a problem if they try to go to some other person who doesn\u2019t have the same goals and objectives in mind.\n7. Show passion for your work.\nHave you ever heard the saying, \"Those who love what they do never have to work a day in their life\"? One example that comes to my mind is Peyton Manning, considered to be one of the greatest NFL quarterbacks of all time. I was so inspired by the farewell speech he gave when he retired that I did some research on his career and was equally inspired by his passion for the game. He has notebooks for every game he has played since high school which enabled him to go back and study every team he played, each player he faced, every coach he encountered, every defensive line and every offensive line. He was incredibly passionate about his work, and that passion was contagious among his teammates and every fan who cheered them on.\nIf you're passionate about what you do, people want to be part of that. Always remember that people want to be part of success, not part of a tragedy. If you're a passionate leader, it breeds success which attracts equally passionate employees. If you don\u2019t love what you do, chances are you're not in the right profession. Find what you're passionate about. Follow that dream and pursue it.\n8. Acknowledge others with simple, positive gestures.\nRecognizing employees does not have to take a ton of thought or effort. Sure, people appreciate the occasional raise or bonus or being recognized with a prestigious award. But sometimes the more simple gestures will get you farther as a leader.\nHow many times have you caught yourself walking through your office or facility with your head down, thinking about your next meeting, thinking about all the things you need to do, and you don't even acknowledge your co-workers? Here are some ideas for quick and positive interactions with employees and colleagues:\nWhen you see someone first thing in the morning, smile and say, \"Good morning!\"\nIf you\u2019re in a hurry, acknowledge someone by shaking their hand and telling them that it was nice to see them.\nAfter you\u2019ve given someone constructive feedback, acknowledge when they follow your direction/guidance by giving them a simple thumbs up; not every positive interaction has to be a conversation.\nIf you don't take the time to acknowledge people or appear friendly, they won't want to be part of your team. A smile, thumbs up or handshake are all easy techniques that carry much weight as you seek to become a better leader.\nWhen developing rules and policies, or implementing new ideas, it's essential to present them to your employees as simply as possible. It allows each employee to better understand and buy into your vision. It's human nature to seek to understand, but sometimes it's hard to do so when we can't grasp all the components of something. As a leader, focus on delivering simple messages to gain the most buy-in from your team.\n10. Practice humility and gratitude.\nLeaders are likable when they express appreciation for others. Additionally, being appreciative of mentors, colleagues and employees also keeps you humble. It also opens your eyes to positive behaviors in the workplace that are reinforced through your acknowledgment of them.\nOften when working together in teams, you will hear some leaders say, \u201cI did this. I did that.\u201d This goes against the adage, \"There's no \u2018I' in team.\" Gracious leaders allow everyone else to shine, giving credit to their employees and colleagues. When that happens, others all appreciate you as a leader and are more willing to follow you.\n11. Bonus Step! Above all else, follow the golden rule (or slightly a modified version).\nWe\u2019ve all heard the golden rule, \u201cTreat others the way they want to be treated.\u201d While this is still generally a good rule to follow, I\u2019ve come to realize over time that not everybody wants to be treated the same way that I want to be treated. Everyone has their own distinct personality, motivations, and way of doing things.\nSome people need step-by-step instructions; others require minimal direction. As a leader, you have to recognize these differences and accept people as they are. You cannot become frustrated with employees just because they need more explanation or more time to complete a task, as long as they are ultimately doing it the right way. These workers will often become some of your best employees and will go to the end of the world for you if you are willing to treat them the way they want to be treated.\nAs a leader, you cannot expect people to follow if you don't know how to lead. Great leaders are always self-reflecting on ways to improve. Consider these 10 simple concepts and honestly evaluate yourself to identify areas of opportunity for improvement and make a conscious effort to improve. It's worth noting that these things will not only make you a better leader but a more likable person overall \u2013 a result that transcends the workplace into our personal lives as well.\nRemember, a person can't lead if they have no followers. Earn the respect of those around you, and you will be viewed as the leader you are.\nWoody Collins joined The American Equity Underwriters, Inc. in 2011 with 26 years of experience in the maritime industry.

        "raw_content": "Eakinomics: The Economic Ravages of the Opioid Epidemic\nThe human toll of the opioid epidemic is staggering. As documented by AAF\u2019s Ben Gitis, in 2017, 47,872 Americans died from opioid-related overdoses. Since 1999 annual opioid overdose fatalities have risen by 10 percent per year, and the most recent data show an acceleration to 16 percent in 2015 and 28 percent in 2016. Early in the crisis, overdoses were dominated by abuse of prescription opioids. Efforts to control over-prescribing and other excessive access to those drugs, however, produced a shift after 2010 to rapidly rising deaths from illegal sources \u2014 heroin and synthetic opioids.\nAny demographic phenomenon this large simply has to have economic consequences, but policymakers have been slow to recognize these impacts. In other work (as revised), Gitis finds that between 1999 and 2015, opioid dependency reduced the prime-age male and female labor force participation rates by 1.4 percentage points and 1.8 percentage points, respectively. The upshot is that in 2015 slightly more than 2 million prime-age individuals were not in the labor force because of opioids, which represents a loss of $1.6 trillion in total economic activity.\nAs it turns out, however, the losses are not evenly distributed across the nation. In his most recent work \u2014 published in the Washington Post and today presented in testimony to the House Small Business Committee \u2014 he shows that the impact on labor force participation and economic growth varies considerably by state (see this cool map). The most negative impacts are in West Virginia and Arkansas, where prime-age labor force participation is 3.8 percentage points lower (with a corresponding decline in economic output). The epidemic had substantial impacts on prime-age participation in Missouri (3.0 percentage points), Georgia (2.9 percentage points), New York (2.9 percentage points), and Kentucky (2.8 percentage points).\nThe opioid epidemic is a stark reminder that the most important economic asset is a nation\u2019s labor force. U.S. policies on health, education, immigration, and other areas should be focused on the future of the labor force.\nGermany implemented a renewable energy requirements in 2000 similar to what California recently enacted, and today electricity prices in Germany are more than double the U.S. average.\nU.S. Household Income Rises to Pre-Recession Levels, Prompting Cheers and Questions\nWho Has Leverage at the Nafta Table?

        "title": "Weekly Checkup: The Shaming of Big Pharma - AAF",
        "raw_content": "The Shaming of Big Pharma\nSince the release of President Trump\u2019s \u201cBlueprint to Lower Drug Prices\u201d this spring, there has been chatter about the Trump Administration requiring drug manufacturers to publicize the list price of their medications in direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising. Sensing that the administration was ready to move on such a proposal, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) preemptively released a \u201cnew approach to DTC television advertising\u201d on Monday promising to provide more information on drug prices, apparently in the hopes of curtailing action by the administration.\nNevertheless, later that Monday Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar announced new requirements for DTC television advertising for prescription drugs that are available through the Medicare or Medicaid programs. The proposed rule would require ads to include the list price of the drug advertised. The rule would allow for either the list price for a 30-day supply or for the typical course of treatment, whichever is most appropriate. The price must also be current as of the broadcast date of the ad. Finally, the requirement would not apply to drugs with a list price of less than $35.\nHow valuable would this information be to consumers? There is considerable debate. Critics of the rule argue that list price is not an appropriate metric, as many consumers do not pay list price for their drugs. This critique is partially true: Drug pricing is a complicated business, and an individual\u2019s insurance, along with other factors, affects the actual price paid. Negotiations between insurance plans, pharmacy benefit managers, and the manufacturers mean that the actual price of a drug can vary substantially from the list price.\nThat said, other considerations suggest such a rule could benefit consumers. Rising deductibles mean more Americans are paying the full cost of their drugs, at least for a time. Additionally, most insured individuals pay coinsurance on their drugs even after reaching their deductible. Coinsurance is a percentage of the cost of the medication, and it is often based on the list price, even if the insurer has negotiated a lower price. In those cases, list price can be helpful in determining the cost to the consumer.\nA second point of contention is whether the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has the authority to require the disclosures at all. The Food and Drug Administration regulates drug advertising, but CMS is proposing this rule. In effect, CMS is saying, \u201cAs the largest purchaser of your product, we demand you comply with this proposal.\u201d To enforce the rule, CMS will publish a list of companies who fail to comply, apparently in hopes of shaming manufacturers into going along with the rule. While that penalty might seem weak, it\u2019s not obvious what penalties the agency could legally impose, short of refusing to purchase specific medications (which they are considering and seeking comment on). Limiting access to specific drugs has long been a political nonstarter\u2014it\u2019s part of why direct negotiations by the HHS secretary over drug prices wouldn\u2019t have much effect.\nThe president has made it clear he wants to force companies to lower their prices, but the federal government has limited legal mechanisms for accomplishing his goal. If implemented, this proposal probably won\u2019t significantly affect drug purchasing decisions. It could, however, increase public awareness about drug prices.\nLast week in the Weekly Checkup, Tara Hayes noted that the Medicare Advantage (MA) program\u2019s enrollment is increasing while premiums are decreasing, but why are MA premiums decreasing? One reason why MA premiums have fallen in recent years could be the uptick in competition among MA plans. The total number of MA plans available in 2019 will mark a 10-year high.\nHealth Affairs: Analyzing Senator Hassan\u2019s Binding Arbitration Approach To Preventing Surprise Medical Bills\nNew York Times: A Device That Makes Running Faster and Easier\nWall Street Journal: Republican Candidates Play Defense Over Health Care",

        "raw_content": "This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of American Heart Association. All opinions are 100% mine.\nLast week I read an article about a woman who didn\u2019t die of a heart attack. I know that sounds weird. Why was there an article about a woman who DIDN\u2019T die of a heart attack? Because she should have. That\u2019s why. She was a healthy woman, not terribly old, took good care of herself. But she woke up one morning feeling a bit ill. It was only her husband\u2019s insistence that she get checked out by a doctor that made her go to a hospital, and they caught her at the very beginning of a heart attack that would have killed her. Reading her story gave me goosebumps. It could so easily happen to anyone.\nMy parents and siblings all struggle with high blood pressure. My father has been in the hospital several times for heart-related scares. My cousin has suffered two heart attacks. My husband\u2019s father died of a heart attack a year before we met, and my kids never got to know him. With so many people taken too young, it is so important for us to recognize the dangers and work toward the goal of making ourselves heart healthy. When our first son was born, my husband lost 50 lbs because he knew he wanted to be around for longer than his dad was. His example was a shining light for me. Even now, he makes going to the gym a priority, and he even takes all three boys with him to make sure they see the example he is setting. Exercise, healthy eating and taking care of yourself.\nNow it is my turn. Three kids in four years has taken its toll on my body. It\u2019s not just that I\u2019m overweight \u2013 it\u2019s that I have suffered from low energy, bad sleep and some high blood pressure and tachycardia since my youngest son\u2019s birth. I am not going to sit around and let life pass me by. I want to be an active participant! So I put together these 5 Simple ways to Make a Change and Be Heart Healthy. I hope they can be helpful to all of us!\nSleep Yourself Healthy!\nStudies have shown that poor quality sleep has a detrimental effect on your heart health! While the exact time we need varies from person to person, but you should be aiming for around 7 hours per night. Too little or too much can increase the risk of cardiovascular problems!\nEat Better!\nWe all think we know how to eat well and be healthy. We see fruits and veggies as good and everything else as bad. The truth is that there is more to it than that. Eating fruits and vegetables is great, but you also need unrefined fiber-rich whole-grain foods. Cut back on added sugars and saturated fats. Limit your sodium intake. And try eating fish a couple times a week! And don\u2019t forget your healthy fats (yes, there are such things!).\nAgain, we all have this picture in our head of what exercise entails. We see gyms and sweaty bodies and us huffing and puffing our way through aerobics. But the truth is that you can choose other ways and see the same benefit. Go for a family walk to the park and then spend 20 minutes running around after your kids! You won\u2019t even notice how tired you are because you\u2019re having so much fun together.\nI know lots of people who chew sugar-free gum instead of smoking. They need to be doing something with their mouths, so they choose a healthier alternative. Find something to take the place of a bad habit. Want to eat some calorific treat? Go brush your teeth instead! Want to veg out watching TV? Grab an arm weight and do some reps while you watch.

The deduction is equal to nine percent of the lesser of a taxpayer\u2019s qualified production activities income (\u201cQPAI\u201d) or taxable income (limited to 50% of W-2 wages paid by the taxpayer during the year). QPAI is equal to the taxpayer\u2019s domestic production gross receipts (\u201cDPGR\u201d) less cost of goods sold and other allowable expenses, losses or deductions related to the qualified activities (\u201cdirect and indirect costs\u201d). In other words, QPAI is equal to the taxpayer\u2019s net income from its domestic manufacturing activities.\nCompanies with production activities in the U.S. can potentially reduce their effective federal tax rate by up to three percent by claiming the DPAD under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code. Though sometimes overlooked due to the complexity of the rules, these tax incentives are not limited to traditional manufacturers and can apply to companies in multiple industries, including:\nSoftware development, including Software as a Service (SaaS)\nFilm and sound recordings\nEngineering and architecture services\nOil and natural gas extraction\nExamples of qualified DPAD activities include:\nLease, rental, license, sale exchange or other disposition of qualifying production property (\u201cQPP\u201d) that was manufactured, produced, grown, or extracted (\u201dMPGE\u201d) by the taxpayer in whole or in significant part within the US;\nConstruction of real property in the US;\nEngineering or architectural services performed in the US for construction in the US.\nExamples of direct and indirect costs that can be allocable to DPGR include the following costs:\nAnchin has been assisting companies reduce their federal tax liability using Section 199 since it was enacted.

Compiled for an academic audience in mind, it is, nevertheless, of great interest to the general reader as the information is always presented in an accessible manner. This is not a book for beginners on the topic but neither is an extensive knowledge of the period required before reading.\nDealing with all facets of warfare in ancient Rome and Greece there are, by way of introduction, the standard overview chapters covering the general military history of these two great civilizations. The main body of the book covers individual aspects of warfare such as cavalry, navies, weapons, armour, logistics, strategies and sieges, each handily split into two parts - first Greece, then Rome. Amongst these chapters are some less obvious topics like discipline, mercenaries, medical treatment, military intelligence, and rituals. The next section of the book then looks at some of their great enemies - the Persians for the Greeks and the Germanic tribes and Sassanid empire for the Romans. Finally, the volume concludes with a batch of individual in-depth case studies such as the Peloponnesian War, the Battle of Leuctra, and the Second Punic War.\nEach chapter has an extensive bibliography and there is also a good index. There is only a smattering of black and white images and a few more maps would have been helpful to orientate the reader, as would have diagrams of battle formations etc. In summary, this is an excellent and comprehensive overview of Greek and Roman warfare with fascinating insights rarely found in other such general works. Highly recommended.\nThe crossbow was introduced into Chinese warfare during the Warring...\nSiege Warfare in Medieval Europe\nSiege tactics were a crucial part of medieval warfare, especially...",

        "title": "What The Midterm Elections Mean For Trump And The GOP | Alabama Public Radio",
        "raw_content": "What The Midterm Elections Mean For Trump And The GOP\nBy Steve Inskeep \u2022 Nov 7, 2018\nHere are some realities of the 2018 election results. Republicans held on to power in some key places, like Florida and Ohio, where they keep the governor's chair, not to mention the United States Senate, where they added to their majority. Democrats took over seven governorships from Republicans in key places, like Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan. They won the House of Representatives, which was the one nationwide vote, and Democrats in that vote carried a substantial majority of voters, something like 7 or 8 points. Of course, some votes are still being counted. So what does all this mean? One perspective we're hearing comes from Chris Buskirk. He is publisher of the website American Greatness, which has been supportive of the president. Good morning. Thanks for coming by, Chris.\nCHRIS BUSKIRK: Oh, it's my pleasure.\nINSKEEP: Good to see you once again. So if you're President Trump - I know the president has been tweeting today that it's a great victory, and they held onto the Senate. You smile slightly. But if you're President Trump, your side loses the popular vote here and loses the House and also loses statewide races in key swing states that Trump won in 2016. What do you make of that?\nBUSKIRK: Well, I think the question here is, what's the base-line standard that you're looking at? And the way I was thinking about it last night and this morning, too, was, if you look back at midterm elections for first term - or even second term presidents, for that matter - this is sort of a reversion to the mean. I'm...\nINSKEEP: Oh, they stink for the incumbent president. Sure.\nBUSKIRK: They always stink. You know, George W. Bush in 2002 did well, but that was an anomaly. It was right after 9/11. But nonetheless, they stink if you're in power. I'm not one of these people who thinks that you win by losing. You don't. A loss is a loss. But on the other side of the balance sheet is the Senate. So Republicans look like they'll probably wind up netting plus three seats in the Senate, which, in that sense, is an outperform, whereas on the House side, that's a loss. And so it's a bit of a mixed bag.\nINSKEEP: But I'm wondering what the country is telling President Trump. This is a president who won without winning the popular vote. But he won the electoral vote, of course, by getting victories in key states like Wisconsin and Michigan and Pennsylvania. And here, you have Democrats winning the popular vote again in the House and also capturing statewide races in those key states. Do you have to worry if you're the president about where the country is headed?\nBUSKIRK: I think so. I think you definitely worry about that. On the other hand, this was not the massive repudiation of the 2016 election that a lot of people were predicting a year ago or so. And so in that sense, you'll think about the - you think about the attacks on the president and some of the, I think, overly optimistic projections that were floating around out there, and you think, OK, we got through our first midterm, and now, yeah, are we worried? Yeah; of course we are because we've got another election in two years. And who are we kidding? The presidential election started, I think, about six hours ago.\nBUSKIRK: You know, so that campaign was - is going to be in full swing here. And you've got to think - you got to say, OK, what do we learn here? One of the things I think the president learned, though, is that his base is very much intact. They turned out in numbers that people didn't think were possible at the beginning of this year.\nINSKEEP: I have to say, you think about a state like Texas, where Beto O'Rourke, the Democrat, brought out almost 4 million voters. And if - I'm going by memory here, but I believe Ted Cruz got more than 4 million voters. In all, it was more than 8 million people out there and close to the presidential election rate for a midterm election. That's kind of unbelievable.\nBUSKIRK: It was an amazing turnout in Texas. And you saw this in a number of states out there, where just the - like, I live in Arizona. The early vote in Arizona exceeded the 2014 total vote, so - when you compare midterm to midterm. So there was - there - we knew there was going to be a big Democrat turnout this time. Turns out, there was a huge Republican turnout, too. So if, like me, you think that people turning out to vote's a good thing, I guess maybe that's something that is positive.\nINSKEEP: How significant is it that Democrats will have subpoena power?\nBUSKIRK: It's very significant. I think that the temptation to overreach is going to be extreme. I know that there are probably people thinking, what do you mean, overreach? This is what we voted for; this is the - this is the necessary check on presidential power. A lot of people in the country do not want to see impeachment. And it is going to be very tempting for Democrats to try and pursue that and try and spend the next two years doing nothing but subpoenaing everybody who has seen the president or talked to the president for the past five years.\nINSKEEP: Just got off the line with Elijah Cummings. He is the ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, which does investigations, and is now expected to be the chairman. And I said, do you already have two years' worth of work lined up? And he said, more than two years.\nBUSKIRK: I knew you were going to say that - yeah, probably five years.\nINSKEEP: Yeah, and including looking at things like the Emoluments Clause - is the Presidents business within the bounds of the Constitution? Do you think the president is ready for that kind of scrutiny?\nBUSKIRK: Well, I think he's put together a team in there that is trying to get him ready. And this is, I think, unprecedented. One of the things that I know I'll - we'll miss is Devin Nunes at the House Intelligence Committee. And I know that he's very polarizing figure, but, you know, look; without him, we would not have known about the politicization of the DOJ or the FBI. It's going to go the other way with Adam Schiff. Adam Schiff is going to...\nINSKEEP: Oh, he'll be the head of the intelligence committee.\nBUSKIRK: Adam...\nINSKEEP: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Right.\nBUSKIRK: Correct. And so he will be all over anything that has the name Trump on it.\nINSKEEP: Chris Buskirk, always a pleasure talking with you. Thanks so much.\nBUSKIRK: Thanks.\nINSKEEP: Chris Buskirk is publisher of the website American Greatness.\nNPR congressional correspondent - correspondent or reporter, Kelsey?\nKELSEY SNELL, BYLINE: Reporter (laughter).\nINSKEEP: OK. But correspondent sounds grander. We'll call you that. Kelsey Snell is here and has been listening along. What did you hear there?\nSNELL: I think that Chris landed on something that I've been hearing from Republicans for months now, which is that this idea that Democrats will have the temptation to overreach is actually a good opportunity for Republicans. I spoke with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell last month about this, and he basically said, bring it on. If Democrats want to go deep into investigations and want to start having conversations potentially about that other I word, impeachment, that it's actually a really big benefit for Republicans, who can reach out to the base that they think is still there and say, look; this is what we warned you about; these are the Democrats we told you would be coming for all of the things that you like about this president.\nINSKEEP: Let's remember a little bit of history. In 1994, Bill Clinton was president. Republicans took both houses of Congress, shut down the government, were widely seen as overreaching. And in the end, Bill Clinton outmaneuvered them and was re-elected in a landslide.\nSNELL: That's precisely what McConnell pointed out as well.\nINSKEEP: OK. Kelsey, thanks so much, really appreciate it.\nINSKEEP: That's NPR congressional reporter Kelsey Snell. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.",

        "raw_content": "VMware, Symantec work up cloud-based single sign-on security services\nThere's a thunderbolt of change coming in cloud-based identity management, with new possibilities for single sign-on (SSO) and provisioning through cloud-based services.\nSymantec and VMware are separately working on their own approaches to cloud-based SSO and identity management, Symantec with its \"Project Ozone\" and VMware with \"Project Horizon.\"\nCASE STUDY: Pharmaceutical firm retires Microsoft environment for cloud services\nWhile discussed at VMworld recently, Project Horizon still seems to be exactly that, on the horizon. There's a little more light being shed on Symantec's Project Ozone, which now has officially been given the product name \"O3.\"\nExpected to debut next year, O3 will be a way that information technology managers can exert policy-based access control for employees whether they have mobile devices or traditional computers. The O3 service will grant the managers access to any authorized cloud-based service or network, while this access record is maintained for audit and compliance purposes. O3 will be the central point for provisioning and de-provisioning of user access privileges based on a wide means of authentication varying from simple password to stronger means, such as two-factor tokens.\nWith cloud-based SSO, Symantec will be following where others, in their own approaches, have gone before, including Hitachi, Symplified, Okta, IBM Tivoli, Courion and Ping Identity. It's still a nascent market, ripe with the expectation that IT managers will need cloud-based provisioning of users in a world of cloud-based applications.\n\"It's targeted as a security service,\" says Rob Koeten, senior technical director for O3, which he calls a \"security layer\" to encompass employee mobile devices or PCs. Essentially, O3 calls for funneling traffic through a proxy-like service and gateway associated with identity. For enterprise use, O3 could exert granular control over exactly how a sales employee could use the Salesforce software as a service, for example, says Koeten. When it debuts next year, which is Symantec's goal, O3 will support the top 200 cloud-based services, he says.\nLike Symantec, VMware has long been eyeing cloud-based identity management. With its Project Horizon ballyhooed for more than a year, VMware is nurturing its aspirations without tipping its hand too much. (Coincidentally, Symantec CEO Enrique Salem alluded to O3 during his keynote at this February's RSA Conference, on the same day RSA president Art Coviello was touting Project Horizon, in which he said RSA is working with VMware on compliance-based security for cloud-based services.)\nProject Horizon is still largely a vision statement made in 2010 with no specific delivery date. But VMware CEO Paul Maritz highlighted the ongoing development in his recent VMworld keynote address, saying Project Horizon is \"a set of technologies\" that will offer \"the ability to associate information to people, not devices.\" Using cloud-based identity management, it will be possible to control user access to applications, including where they may be downloaded, such as to Android devices, something VMware demoed at the show.\n\"One of its services is authentication and directory federation\" that's aimed at the SaaS-based environment, Maritz said about Project Horizon in a press briefing, noting VMware gained some foundational SSO and access management technology through its acquisition last year of TriCipher.\nToday, it's mainly the smaller industry players, such as Okta, Ping Identity and Symplified, that are showing that enterprise customers will adopt new modes of cloud-based single sign-on for the cloud-based services they use.\nAmag Pharmaceuticals, for example, which is using the Okta service for identity management, relies on it as the linchpin for provisioning and de-provisioning of a wide variety of SaaS applications.\n\"All the conduits sit at Okta,\" said Nathan McBride, executive director for IT at the Lexington, Mass.-based company. \"The user authenticates to Okta.\" At the same time, McBride says he doesn't worry about lock-in since it would be easy to simply switch from one cloud-based SSO service to another, if need be. \"If we left Okta tomorrow, I'd just cancel my service,\" he says.",

This year will be no different with a fantastic line-up of dare-devil stuntmen and fast-paced horseback competitions.\nHowever, taking the pace down a little this year, but turning the fun up to full, will be the Fergie Fillies.\nThe Fergie Fillies are a group of sixteen novice tractor drivers from Cornwall and they are all set to combine girl-power with horse-power. Albeit the modest horse-power of the iconic Ferguson TE-20 tractor, or the Little Grey Fergie as it is better known.\nTheir aim is to create a display of precision all-girl formation driving. Think Red Arrows on grass and vintage tractors instead of supersonic jets and you are probably on the right lines.\nThe girls have practised hard to master driving the little grey Fergie which can probably claim to be the world\u2019s most famous mass produced tractor. More than a million were produced between 1946 and 1956, half a million each at Harry Ferguson\u2019s factories in Coventry and Detroit, USA and they were exported throughout the world.\n1940\u2019s technology takes a little time to get used to but under the tutelage of vintage tractor enthusiast, David Taylor, the team are now ready for action.\nThe original team of twelve ladies made their debut performance at last year\u2019s St Mawgan Steam and Vintage Rally, but this year David has expanded the team to sixteen to ensure that they can fill the show\u2019s vast main ring with their tightly choreographed performances.\nDavid said:\u201cWhat the girls lacked in experience is more than made up for by their tenacity and enthusiasm. However, I\u2019m still finding it hard to believe that lipstick and mascara are now an essential part of the tractor driver\u2019s tool kit!\u201d\nThe team will perform on each day of this year\u2019s show and their act is shaping up to be one that is not to be missed.\nFor more information about the Royal Cornwall Show please visit www.royalcornwall.co.uk",

        "title": "AVEN GDPR Upgrade & Policy Update - Announcements - Asexual Visibility and Education Network",
        "raw_content": "AVEN GDPR Upgrade & Policy Update\nBy Coleslaw, May 24, 2018 in Announcements\nAs many of you will be aware, the European Union has updated the law regarding privacy and consent over use of personal data, and this updated law (GDPR, General Data Protection Regulation) will come into effect on the 25th of May 2018. It\u2019s a regulation for all individuals within the European Union, and it also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The GDPR aims primarily to give control to citizens and residents over their personal data; it also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU.\nFrom Wikipedia (which summarises it well): the GDPR provides for a harmonization of the data protection regulations throughout the EU, thereby making it easier for non-European companies to comply with these regulations; however, this comes at the cost of a strict data protection compliance regime with severe penalties. The GDPR also brings a new set of \"digital rights\" for EU citizens in an age of an increase of the economic value of personal data in the digital economy. (more info here).\nThere are only a few ways AVEN is concerned, and a couple of changes to our members:\n1. Our registration form will include more explicit wording around how your data is stored and used on AVEN. Invision Power Board was updated this past weekend to meet GDPR compliance and now prompts for cookies & privacy message adjustments, so everyone can stay up to date with software privacy changes.\n2 All of our members, regardless of the date they registered, will have more control over their personal data. The only personal information (as defined by GDPR) that AVEN stores is members\u2019 email addresses and IPs; we don't send out mass emails, such as newsletters, and don't plan to. If you are receiving emails from AVEN, that is connected to your account's Followed Content choices, which can be changed at any time in your User Settings.\nThe way in which members will have more control over their data is with regards to how long AVEN stores your data. Should a member desire to have their account removed in order to have their email & IP record deleted from our servers, they now have that option. This is an update to our current rules, which will be reflected soon in the Terms of Service, and will be available from the 25th of May.\nThe above change means that our Admod Team will honour account deletion requests; this does not mean they will need to delete the content posted by that account. As it has been until today, deleting posts will still be down to the individual members, and will have to be done before requesting deletion. Members can ask for help with regards to deleting information in locked/archived posts if the posts include personally identifiable information (unique name, address, phone number, email, IP, etc).\nAs always, we hope our members enjoy their stay on AVEN and will not wish to leave any time soon.\nAVEN BoD\nDon\u00b4t you have to ask every memember if they agree with this? And should not the \"delete all posts\" thingy be made as easy as possible like on one button that deletes all posts ever made including quotes by other members?\nAnyway it is great that you are taking this cerious.\nTo expand. I think the first part is just complying with new laws. I think it's mandatory, not something people can opt out of. The second thing can be very destructive, especially if it's so easy to do. I saw a lot of information that was basically community property on another forum get lost forever because one person left and wiped out everything they had ever been a part of. We lost a lot of history and community lore (and fun stuff, too). It was very sad. And there was little if any personal info involved.\nThat said, I don't know what the new EU law entails or requires.\nYeah that sounds fair.\nOn 5/24/2018 at 6:49 AM, Kimmie. said:\nAs anyone who live in the EU will be able to tell you (if you don't), our email inboxes have been flooded by all sorts of companies and websites informing us of their changes to data privacy rules and alike. The GDPR is more complicated than it looks at first sight, and does not mean that anything someone wants deleted should be deleted. Companies don't even have to ask you if you want to agree to them keeping you on their newsletter (most of them are using something called 'legitimate interest'). You can find more info here and in this article about how many companies are getting it wrong.\nWhat must be deleted if someone asks is personally identifiable information, which is a list that has some clear items on it (such as full name, address, emails, IPs, phone number, etc.), and some that are less clear (the Information Commissioner's Office itself says the list is non-exhaustive). This is because what it really boils down to is whether or not that info identifies a specific, unique individual (e.g. could I figure out it's you out of all the people in your country/city/town etc?).\nSo for example, if I wanted to leave AVEN and remove all personal info on me, first I'd have to figure out if anything in my posts includes personally identifiable data, and then sort that out by editing them. Last, I'd ask my account to be deleted (which deletes email and IPs, all data AVEN stores as a website). if I had posted a post on AVEN that I want deleted, and it's not 'archived'/locked, it's up to me to edit it out/remove it (and I can do that with anything at all, including non-identifiable data, though we hope members don't). If it's locked, I can ask Admods to edit it out/remove it, and they will only HAVE TO (by law) if (see above) it REALLY identifies me.\n-Welcome Lounge post: \"Hi, my name is Mary from London, so excited to be here!\" = not really identifiable info, there are hundreds of thousands of Marys in London. Admods would not have to remove this.\n-Welcome Lounge post: \"Hi, my name is John Smith, from the UK\" = not really identifiable info, there are hundreds of thousands of John Smith in the UK. Admods would not have to remove this.\n-Welcome Lounge post: \"Hi, my name is Mary Shnoodzly, I live in London, so excited to be here!\" = more identifiable, don't imagine many Mary Shnoodzly in London, would have to be deleted if asked.\n-Off-A post: \"Hi, my name is Jack and I work in the Royal Mail service, anyone else?\" = not really identifiable info, loads of Jack most likely work in the Royal Mail service. Admods would not have to remove this.\n-Meetup post: \"Hi, my name is Jack and I work in the Royal Mail service at the little office of Stoke Holy Cross in Norfolk, anyone else lives around here?\" = there's likely to be only one Jack at the little office of Stoke Holy Cross in Norfolk, so someone could identify him. This would have to be deleted if asked.\nI hope this helps, as you can see from the way people post on AVEN, most posts are not covered by the 'right to be forgotten', because they don't include personally identifiable data, so would not have to be deleted, and we therefore do not need a 'delete all posts' button.\nAny questions, shout (though I can't promise I'll be able to answer them all, or not all quickly).\n@ithaca Okay the funny thing is that i get different info from ever place i check. Some \"experts\" says that everything should be deleted if the user ask for if it dosent mater why it just should.\nWell it is enough that one person knows who i am fo it to be personally identifiable data.\nAnyway it personally don\u00b4t really mater to me. But this is the most importent one for me:\nOpt-in rather than Opt-out\nUnder the GDPR, companies have to switch from an opt-out approach to an opt-in approach. That is \u2013 rather than giving users an option to opt-out of having their data collected and stored, users must give permission to have their data collected and used. This applies to newsletters and other platforms where their data may be collected.\nEuropean users have the legal right to question or appeal how their personal information is presented by algorithms such as those used by search businesses and the likes.\nAnd i want to be clear i am not trying threaten you here at all. I am just worried that someone might use this law to hurt AVEN. There so much at my work that has been done. We have had to trough away so much paper archives. It is enough to have a just a name no adress. It could be okay but we dont want to risk it. And it takes to much time to contact every person and ask if it is okay for us to have that info.\nAnd i want to be clear i am not trying threaten you here at all. I am just worried that someone might use this law to hurt AVEN.\nThat is all fine. Our users never needed to opt out of anything in the first place, so we don't need to swap to opt-in. They all actively choose to register, leaving their email for registration purposes (which will be explained more clearly in the registration form). We do not send out newsletter or emails that people need to actively opt in rather than opt out, so that doesn't change anything for us\nA lot of companies used to automatically opt you in newsletter and discount-deal emails when you were buying something online, without asking for permission, and left you to have to opt out after already emailing you. That will not be allowed anymore (but again doesn't apply to us).\nWe are lucky that very little needs to change because of how very little personal data we request, store or use as an organisation.\nTo my knowledge there exists no \"clear list\" of what is considered \"personal data\" and the definition remains vague - possibly intentionally so, for at least one good reason: there's an important grey area. I've done what you might call some casual PI work (read: stalking) in the past and often I've been able to identify people using some of the most unsuspecting details. The more you profile a person, the more you can tie together as possibly/probably being linked to them. On the surface it may seem like one post about something very common can't be used to identify you, but someone scouring your entire post history (who has possibly already scoured your history elsewhere on the internet) can figure out a lot about you - and by following the breadcrumbs, find other sites you're on, other usernames you use, other contact details (email, Facebook, whatever) and before you know it, you done been ID'd.\nEven in the best case scenario, anyone is kidding themselves if they think this is just about email addresses and names. Plenty of (official) sources have included things as simple as hair colour in their definitions - so even a post about someone dying their hair blue needs to be deleted.\nAs a site owner, you would have to ask yourself whether you'd want to take the risk of being sued/whatever because someone was able to track down (and murder? for sake of emphasis) one of your site's users because you didn't delete a post they made 4 years ago about owning a rare tropical fish or some shit. Personally, I'd just play it safe and delete everything.\n8 minutes ago, Tercy said:\nAs discussed in the OP, users can delete/edit out their own posts. Because we offer this option (meaning our website is not one of those where you can't edit your own posts), we don't need to worry of having to do that ourselves.\n18 minutes ago, ithaca said:\nOut of interest, do you have any sources for this readily available?\nJust to throw a few points out there:\n1) The wording of the regulation does suggest the onus is on the \"controller\" (e.g. the site staff) to delete the data, not for the user to delete their own data.\n2) In these matters there's often the question of \"fairness\" - and I wouldn't fancy your chances in court, expecting your users to go through and vet/delete their own 40,000-strong post history one by one.\n3) What about posts where you have been quoted? These are out of your control, but still contain your information.\nAgain... why even risk it?\nWe would delete the data we require users to give us (email, IP), what users choose to share in their posts is entirely up to them, if that makes sense? Again, very few people share data that would identify them, so not much of a risk on AVEN. Admods can help where someone was quoted\nwhat users choose to share in their posts is entirely up to them\nI'd still be interested to see the source for this.\npaperbackreader\nGender:\ud83c\udf70\nPronouns:Whatever's comfortable\nA/Sexuality:Undecided\n4 hours ago, Tercy said:\n2) In these matters there's often the question of \"fairness\" - and I wouldn't fa\ufeffncy your chances in court, expecting your users to go through and vet/delete their own 40,000-strong post history one by one.\ufeff\n4 hours ago, ithaca said:\nThe world is greyer than set out here..\nIf users made a request to the site administration that they wish for all of their posts to be deleted, unless there is another overriding legal basis to retain (e.g. where there's a current police investigation / notice in to bullying / harassment, or where the entire post is intellectual property jointly developed and signed to be the property of the site rather than the user - and there was nothing personally identifiable to the user, then pseudomysation rather than deletion would be appropriate) - then it is up to the site to delete the data within 30 - 60 days of the user's request.\nAlso ref Opt in vs Opt out - that only applies where the legal basis for processing is consent... I mean - would you expect to consent to receiving a receipt / invoice, or would you expect to opt out of receiving a paper copy...?\nThe responsibility of the site owner to delete data applies to material that only they can access, in the case of AVEN, people's email addresses. It doesn't apply to forum posts, as the individual concerned can edit or remove these themselves at any time.\nThe law is aimed more at businesses, so if, for example, you buy something online, they can't store your name, address, credit card details etc without your consent.\nWhat, from an AVEN perspective, would be interesting to see is how the law stands when a post has been quoted.\n3 hours ago, Skycaptain said:\nI still... would love to see the source for this.\nIf we go back to the beginning and turn to the GDPR itself, Article 2(1) says:\nThe takeaway here is that the GDPR applies to \"processing\" and \"personal data.\"\nAlso, Article 2(2) says:\n1. As will be demonstrated below, AVEN and its activities are within the scope of the GDPR.\n2. AVEN is not (to my knowledge) involved in policing immigration.\n3. AVEN is not a person storing contact details in a smartphone.\n4. AVEN is not (to my knowledge) an authority involved in solving crime.\nI address this in response to this idea that the GDPR is \"aimed at businesses.\" As further evidence, the ICO has a guide aimed at charities.\nIn Article 4(1), 'personal data' is defined as:\n... any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (\u2018data subject\u2019); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;\nI highlighted the \"or indirectly\" just to reinforce my point that unassuming data by itself may not necessarily identify a person, but can be used as part of a wider operation (e.g. profiling) to identify a person.\nYou may also note it says above, \"in particular ... such as a name\" but note that \"in particular\" does not mean \"exclusively.\"\nArticle 4(2) defines \"processing\" as:\n... any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction;\nA few of the terms above could apply to a forum, but \"storage\" and \"otherwise making available\" are definitely in the bag.\nWhile we're on Article 4, let's just cover \"processor\" and \"controller\":\nWe already established that AVEN meets the definition of \"processing\" - so AVEN is at the very least a processor.\nYou'll note here it says that a controller may have whole or joint control. Really this is aimed at organisations working together and sharing data, but I point it out because it illustrates that there's no basis for this idea that AVEN gets a free pass just because other people (e.g. the users) share some form of control over the data.\nI included this part just to establish that the GDPR applies to both controllers and processors. In Article 24(1) we see:\n... the controller shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and to be able to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with this Regulation.\nIn Article 28(1) we see:\n... the controller shall use only processors providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such a manner that processing will meet the requirements of this Regulation and ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.\nAlso, this part about implementing \"appropriate technical measures\" would become relevant in a case where your defense was (paraphrasing, of course) \"we couldn't be bothered to implement the technology to mass-delete people's posts.\" According to the GDPR, you're responsible for implementing such technology if it's necessary for compliance.\nOn the \"right to erasure\" Article 17(1) says:\nThe data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay and the controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay\nTo me, this wording suggests that the obligation is on the controller to erase the data. Maybe I'm just reachin'.\nSo far, nowhere have I seen anything that suggests or supports any of the following:\nForum posts are exempt.\nAVEN is exempt.\nGiving people the tools to spend hours of their life deleting their own data whilst refusing to do it yourself counts as compliance.\nThe GDPR only applies to businesses.\nThe GDPR only applies to email addresses.\nThe GDPR only applies to data outside of the user's control.\nIf anyone can support the above claims, I'd be interested to see it. I don't have an axe to grind here; I'm just concerned by what seems (to me) to be misinformation being promoted on what is potentially an important issue, given the proposed threat of hefty fines for noncompliance. Also, given that it was my responsibility to research the GDPR, its impact on my employer's (a software company) operations and make the final decision on how we should respond to it, I'd welcome anyone who is able to show me where I may have gone wrong. So that I might grow as a human being and shit.\nAdmin of AVENde\nGender:Aven != about \"Gender\"\nPronouns:Aven != about \"Pronouns\"\nOn a general note: anyone who believes that personal data can be (fully) protected by such a law is not aware of how the internet works. Especially the total erasure of data is near to impossible. Any member (or guest/bot in public areas) of this board can copy any public information to their personal PC. Files that were deleted can be restored in many cases so the data might still be out there hidden on one or many hard drives even at hosting companies. Also most sites including Aven were served via http not https for a long time which means that also private messages and passwords could have been stored by third parties with access to that traffic, e.g. secret services, providers, hosting companies, ...\nSeems to me like this is up for interpretation. Personal data that is part of a larger discussion could be considered necessary indefinitely. On the other hand one might argue that e.g. there is no purpose involved anymore as soon as someone leaves the site. So any personal data would have to be deleted by the staff as soon as someone leaves the site.\nCould be tricky as well. If someone posts personal data in a forum post the site owner has neither asked for consent nor was consent granted explicitly. What hasn't been granted cannot be withdrawn. Also there are a bunch of legal reasons that might justify keeping e.g. data like ip addresses.\nI'd say a forum thread might serve the right for freedom of expression and information.\nfor archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) in so far as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.\nbtw. if https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EU\u2013US_Privacy_Shield\nis declared invalid in the same way that Safe Harbor was declared invalid there might be no legal grounds at all to transfer data of EU citizens to the US and vice versa anymore so the site would have to be split into at least two separate instances to comply with the law which is ridiculous obv. \ud83d\ude09\nI can tell you now, unless anyone here is a GDPR expert, they won't be able to tell you if AVEN is a processor or a controller because it's not always obvious. My guess would be for stuff like email addresses, personal info and IP addresses, AVEN is the controller and the software company they use for the forum is a processor.\nIn terms of forum posts, I'd think they're only personal data if you could identify someone through what they write. A lot of forum posts won't qualify (the underlying data, like my IP address for example will, clearly). Otherwise, my guess without thinking about it much is that AVEN isn't the controller in respect of my posts - I decided to write this post so it was me who decided what to do with my data, not AVEN. You can only argue they're a controller on the basis that they tell the software company how to process my post - that is a guess though, without me having done proper research into it.\nHonestly, though, it's better to speak to a GDPR expert then try to second-guess the legislation if you're concerned. It's hellishly complex and unless you've spent a lot of time getting to grips with it, you're probably not going to get it right.\nPS. Re: the EU-US privacy shield - you can still comply if you put into place processes that are adequate by EU standards, IIRC - see Article 46. The US just has terrible data protection laws.\nI'd like to remind users that our BOD handles the legal aspects of AVEN. They are fully aware of the laws and how they affect AVEN. They have to be in order for AVEN to maintain its non profit status in the US.\nSo unless someone is a GDPR expert or works for the legal department in the EU, trust our BOD. If you are an expert or work in the legal department in the EU and you think our BOD needs to do something different, then you can PM them.\n@Tercy you have the tools. You can totally edit all of your posts to remove all of the text at any point, and we've had members do that. Exceptions are archived threads, but even those you can request edits and it's up to the admod discretion. Only time I may hesitate to remove a post is if it's a World Watch thread because much of those threads show the history of asexuality.\nAs a member you can remove the text in a post but not the post all toghter which can be a problem.\nOn 5/26/2018 at 10:04 PM, Blaiddmelyn said:\nOtherwise, my guess without thinking about it much is that AVEN isn't the controller in respect of my posts - I decided to write this post so it was me who decided what to do with my data, not AVEN.\nWith that logic the the e-mail and ip is not a problem either because you decide yourself to sign up.\nThat's a requirement of me using the services which is how AVEN is caught by the GDPR at all so arguably different. I have to give that to use the site. I don't have to then post. As i say though, i am guessing - forum posts aren't something i need to know about insofar as i need to know the GDPR.\nYeah that makes sence. What i am worried about is that so many \"experts\" interpreters it differently. No one seems to agree what it means.\nThat's quite fitting though\nTLDR all of this, so won't worry about it.\n@FaerieFate I'm sure the users are very reassured. As always, I'm just here for the discourse; I have no vested interest in whether or not AVEN gets fined into oblivion. And I'm just putting it out there that my perspective is very different to the one being presented here.\nAs I read back over this thread, I feel it would be helpful to just highlight the motives behind the GDPR and the \"right to be forgotten.\" There seems to be this underlying misconception that it's a purely commercial affair - like it's some kind of reaction to big data companies targeting political propaganda on Facebook and shit. It's not. The EU's stance is that having control over digital data that relates to you is a human right. The \"right to be forgotten\" isn't the right to not have big data companies profile you; it's the right to not have your digital past follow you around. In other words, being able to do things like decide you no longer want to be associated with a particular online forum is exactly the sort of thing that inspired the existence of the GDPR in the first place.\nTo just address some other things:\n@Maz's post explores Article 17, but the simple fact is that (as highlighted in said post) only one needs to apply - and you've got quite a list there to choose from.\nOn 5/26/2018 at 5:44 PM, Maz said:\nIf someone posts personal data in a forum post the site owner has neither asked for consent nor was consent granted explicitly. What hasn't been granted cannot be withdrawn.\nThere exists the concept of \"implied consent\" in law so this one wouldn't hold any ground by itself anyway. In any case, consent is one of the requirements for the processing to be lawful in the first place (see Article 6) - so if there's no consent and no other lawful basis for keeping the data (I can't see anything else in Article 6 that would apply) then Article 17(1)(d) would apply and the data would have to be erased.\nAlso there are a bunch of legal reasons that might justify keeping e.g. data like ip addresses.\ufeff\ufeff\nIP logs are covered by the GDPR. The log (or indeed any other data) would need to be relevant to some ongoing legal/criminal/other proceeding for you to have any grounds to keep it after the user has requested erasure. As much as it might intuitively feel right to hold on to such data \"just in case\" something comes up in the future, lawfully you can't just override people's rights on the grounds that they may one day become a suspect. \"Presumption of innocence\" and all that.\n(Does AVEN have a process in place to delete such logs?)\nThis clause is to just reconcile the two rights (freedom of expression and right to erasure) so that you can't for example use the GDPR to censor someone. Deletion of your own data doesn't censor anyone else.\n\"for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) in so far as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.\ufeff\"\nI'm struggling to imagine how posts between normal members of society on a social forum might be of public, academic, historical or scientific interest.\nOn 5/26/2018 at 9:04 PM, Blaiddmelyn said:\nI can tell you now, unless anyone here is a GDPR expert, they won't be able to tell you if AVEN is a processor or a controller because it's not always obvious\nYou don't need to be \"a GDPR expert\" to know if AVEN is a controller or processor; you read the definitions in the regulation and can clearly see that they apply to AVEN one way or another.\nIn terms of forum posts, I'd think they're only personal data if you could identify someone through what they write.\ufeff\nWe covered this one as well. The definition of \"personal data\" in the GDPR includes data that may indirectly identify a person. As an example, I might make a post in a thread about programming. In another thread, I comment on how it takes forever for my hair to dry because it's so long. In another, I may make a comment about buying something for \u00a380. I comment in another thread that I draw cartoons. Now someone can tie together that I'm a programmer who draws cartoons, probably lives in England and has long hair. As all this information adds up, there comes a point where the right (or wrong?) person would tie it all together and either know who you are (if they already know you) or be well on their way to figuring out who you are.\nThere's another subtle issue: Things like gender, location and hair colour (for example) are clearly covered by the GDPR, but this information extends beyond just labels like \"male\" and \"brown hair.\" Again, I don't need to post \"I live in England\" for someone to figure out that I live in England; they could figure that out (with reasonable accuracy) from my use of British English, whining about English weather, etc. One's gender might be inferred (again, with reasonable accuracy) from a post about hating wearing bras/dresses or never being able to find a comfortable position for your testicles when lying down, etc.\nJust to reiterate: My stance is that, with there being so much open to interpretation - and when weighing the potential consequences against the simplicity of just installing a script to delete/nullify posts - why even take that risk in the first place? And this is a purely legal/lawful question. There exists also the moral question of, why try so hard to find loopholes that keep you from having to grant the wishes of users regarding their data?\n... and to add to that, I do find it very amusing that AVEN - a site renowned for its mountains of red tape, policies and processes, pomp and circumstance, legal bubble wrap and such - has opted to take the riskier approach to this issue. :p If I were an armchair psychologist, it might almost seem as though AVEN just doesn't like the prospect of now being obligated to do something they so deeply detest being asked to do (hence all the \"ffs we're not going to delete your posts so stop asking!\" threads over the years) - and now they're just digging their heels in. Pure speculation, of course.\nand\ufeff to add to that, I do find it very amusing that AVEN - a \ufeffsite renowned for its mountains of red tape, policies and processes, pomp and circumstance, legal bubble wrap and such - has opted to take the riskier approach to this issue. \ud83d\ude1b If I were an armchair psychologist, it might almost seem as though AVEN just doesn't like the prospect of now being obligated to do something\ufeff they so deeply detest being asked to do (hence all the \"ffs we're not going to delete your posts so stop asking!\" threads over the years) - and now they're just\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff digging their heels in.

        "raw_content": "3.16pm on 8th August, 2017\nOne of the things I have found fascinating about running autodotbiography is how surprised families often are by the stories they read about their parents and/or grandparents. They think they have heard all the stories before but when they get their copy of the autodotbiography they find it has memories and adventures they knew nothing, or very little, of.\nIt is particularly poignant to read of the loneliness of so many older people at this time of year. The charity The Silver Line revealed last week that they get more calls at this time of year than at Christmas. It would appear that not only families go away on holiday but so do many familiar faces, the postman, the hairdresser, the regular carer.\nFrom my point of view the saddest thing is, that unless recorded in one form or another, their life stories will be completely lost, to the deep and lasting regret of their families, once they have died. Research for the British Heart Foundation a few years ago revealed that millions of people in the UK regretted not knowing more about their parents and grandparents lives.\nAlthough I have made autodotbiography as easy to use as possible, regardless of how good or bad a writer someone is, but it has still depended on them being able to type. Until now.\nToday we have launched a new development on the website. It is a dictation app which means that people using autodotbiography can talk into the program and it will turn their words into text, making it far easier for those who don\u2019t enjoy typing to create their book.\nIf you want to see how it works this is a link to a 2 minute demonstration. https://www.autodotbiography.com/help-advice/video-help/how-dictation-works\nPlus, I was delighted to get this message last week.\n\"Absolutely thrilled with the arrival of my books today. The quality of them is brilliant. The help and support from Bryher has been wonderful. I am delighted to have my life story down in print for myself, my family and future generations. It took nine months to compile and get into print; like the conception and birth of a baby. It felt like a rebirth, the whole process; and now my new chapter of life awaits. Just hope this opportunity is still available in twenty years time; so I can add to my memoirs. Can\u2019t recommend this experience enough. Thank you\u201d\nIf you want to have a free trial of autodotbiography (no credit or debit card required) go to https://www.autodotbiography.com/free-trial\nIf you want to try out the system using speech into text, then you will need to use the Chrome browser, it isn\u2019t available in the other browsers yet.",

        "raw_content": "WESTSIDE CONNECT\nCity Hopes to Revitalize Municipal Airport\nLocal leaders will be looking for ways to jump-start activity at Gustine\u2019s municipal airport, and launch it back to financial health.\nThe once-thriving airport has fallen onto challenging times, City Manager Sean Scully recently acknowledged, and revitalization is required to assure the long-term viability of the facility.\n\u201cIt is a difficult time at the airport. It is not performing financially the way it once did, which is not the fault of anyone,\u201d Scully commented. \u201cThe general aviation market as a whole, if you talk to pilots, is suffering. (Aviation) is an expensive hobby to have, and when the recession hit a lot of folks decided they could no longer do it.\u201d\nDiminishing fuel sales \u2013 once a lifeblood for the airport budget \u2013 and deteriorating hangars are among the challenges facing the airport, Scully noted.\nFinances have delayed completion of a crucial drainage project at the airport, aimed at alleviating the occasional wintertime flooding which has periodically forced closure of the lone runway.\n\u201cWe had to pass on a project this year because we did not have the matching funds. The Federal Aviation Administration gives us about $150,000 a year that they want us to use, but the match for us is about 10 percent,\u201d Scully explained. \u201cWe can\u2019t just grab grant money because it is there. We have to do it within the confines of our budget.\u201d\nThe financial challenges, he added, delay progress on the drainage project by at least a year.\nThe goal is for the airport to be financially self-sufficient, but several years ago $40,000 of general fund money was loaned to the airport budget to complete a taxi-way project.\n\u201cThe fund is still trying to pay that off,\u201d Scully said.\nThe airport, he added, is currently lacking the activity that would generate revenue needed to nurse the facility back to financial health.\nThe situation is, to a point, a Catch-22, Scully suggested.\nWithout the activity, the airport does not have the revenue to make needed improvements\u2026.but until those improvements are completed, drumming up additional revenue will be a challenge.\n\u201cWe need more businesses out there, and probably more and better hangars,\u201d Scully said.\nThe airport was a topic of discussion during a December council meeting.\nAirport Commissioner Vic Andersen emphasized the importance of the facility to Gustine\u2019s economy \u2013 and the importance of promoting the airport.\nMayor Dennis Brazil called for strong business sense in overseeing operations.\nThe airport could thrive \u201cif we could get it to be a little more like Los Banos and give people a reason to fly into there,\u201d Brazil commented.\nCouncil member Pat Nagy noted that some cities with airports host fly-ins, and lease light industrial space at the aviation facility.\nNo single solution is likely to be the answer, Scully indicated.\n\u201cThe big question is how do we get the airport to a point where it is financially stable and can operate on its own,\u201d he reflected. \u201cThe general feeling is that we are proud to have an airport. We are a tiny town with an airport, which is an asset. How do we capitalize on that?\u201d\nhttp://www.westsideconnect.com/news/local_news/city-hopes-to-revitalize-municipal-airport/article_a88ef496-b49c-11e5-b926-aba5140fa5df.html",

With a purchase of a ticket, guests can have access to the zero-depth water splash play area, swim the lagoon/waterslide, pedal boats, and fishing. However, those hoping to fish must obtain a CA State Fishing License, which can be purchased online or at a local sporting good store beforehand.

        "raw_content": "Bankruptcy Albury-- how traveling can get you in trouble.\nSomething that a few individuals don\u2019t understand when they have a look at Bankruptcy is that it can effectively stop you from travelling to other countries. This is an element that many individuals forget, and it could actually get you in a great deal of trouble.\nIf you are facing Bankruptcy then traveling is most likely amongst your minor concerns\u2013 but it is nonetheless essential to understand. Having said that if you are at present more worried about assets, your house, your home, and what they are going to leave you with, then I would completely advise you take advantage of our free consult at Bankruptcy Experts Albury on 1300 795 575.\nHowever I wish to clarify to you here a little bit regarding some of your obligations and constraints that are placed upon you when it relates to Bankruptcy. Now don\u2019t let all of this stop you from looking at Bankruptcy, as it is practically often the most intelligent selection to make, but I would like you to be knowledgeable about all the cases that may impact you.\nSo to begin with, when it comes to Bankruptcy you should recognize that as soon as you declare personal bankruptcy you are to be regarded as a bankrupt until it comes to an end following discharge or annulment. This will typically be 3 years and 1 day after you declare.\nBut! This may be extended if you break the policies. There are a number of them, so kindly do speak with a qualified specialist service, like that at Bankruptcy Experts Albury. For now, let\u2019s review overseas travel.\nFirst and foremost, it is an offence to take a trip while bankrupt, or even to make arrangements to travel without having the written consent of your bankruptcy trustee. As explained the guidelines on this specific part of Bankruptcy are clear, and you can face an increase of your bankruptcy period\u2013 and even face imprisonment upon conviction. Basically these regulations exist to stop someone who is facing bankruptcy from fleeing the country. For the majority of people out there who, as an illustration have a local business in Albury and have just made some poor judgments, this won\u2019t be the risk, but the limitations will still apply.\nFor instance, we once had a client in Albury who declared insolvency and a year later was sadly informed that their mother died in her home in England. Our client, undoubtedly upset, went on the next flight available to go and see her relatives. However, this was in conflict of the bankruptcy conditions, and she truly faced some considerable issues for exiting the country without authorization.\nIn all honesty, if she had followed the procedure there would certainly have been no major complication as a result of the events, but rules are rules.\nThe process encompassing Bankruptcy and international travel is an option on the part of the trustee, but if you do not request permission you are going to find yourself in trouble\u2013 which is just among one of the commonly overlooked limitations when it concerns Bankruptcy. You should make sure that you understand as much as you can about Bankruptcy as early as possible because only then can you seek to get the best choice for your circumstance. I recommend that you utilize our free consultation at Bankruptcy Experts Alburyon 1300 795 575. And if you have any other questions or worries about overseas travel or Bankruptcy, then also take a look at our website www.bankruptcyexpertsalbury.com.au.",

Prior to joining metrica, a 325-year-old German luxury estate and mega-yacht interior design firm, as its North American chief executive in 2018, he served as vice president of sales and marketing at Merritt Woodwork, an Ohio-based high-end woodwork supplier.\nBy launching the U.S. branch for metrica, Mantione, 58, is aiming to help the company foray into luxury residential interiors across the U.S., where the vast majority of superyacht owners live.\nThe firm has already secured many notable residential projects, including a duplex at 520 Park Avenue, a Robert A. M. Stern-designed Manhattan tower; an apartment at 220 Central Park South, also designed by Mr. Stern; and a billionaire\u2019s residence in Palm Beach, Florida.\n\u201cLuxury residential interiors are moving closer to modern superyacht interiors,\u201d Mantione says. \u201cCrisp, clean lines with integrated architectural metals and specialty finishes, including natural materials such as horn or mother of pearl\u201d are becoming more popular, he says.\nMantione travels extensively for work as well as for personal pleasure. He attends the annual Monaco Yacht Show, makes trips to Asia to meet with clients, visits Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Prague for design conferences, and spends his downtime in Italy, France, and popular vacation spots across the U.S.\nMantione shared a few of his favorite things with Penta.\nmetrica North American CEO Mark Mantione Courtesy of Mark Mantione\nMy favorite city in the world is... Piemonte, Italy. The cuisine and wine there are second to none. I greatly enjoy the culture, history, and architecture of the region in Italy\u2019s northwest, bordering Switzerland and France. But I have a few other favorite cities depending on the season: Aspen, Colo., in the winter; Miami in the spring; and cities in the South of France in the summer.\nThe one place I've visited that I would love to do again\u2026 Ciau del Tornavento in Treiso, Italy. The restaurant features an iconic creative menu and one of the largest Italian wine cellars in the world. In the fall, the fresh white truffles and porcini mushrooms are to die for.\nIf I were to buy a piece of art, it would be by\u2026 Thomas \"Tom\" Wesselmann, an American artist associated with the Pop Art movement who worked in painting, collage, and sculpture.\nmetrica is a global leader in luxury estate and superyacht interiors. Courtesy of metrica\nThe best book I've read in the last year is... Principles by Ray Dalio.\nA passion of mine that few people know about is.... Barolo wines. I\u2019m an avid collector of great Barolo wines. The taste is so rich, and I\u2019m always looking to discover new vintners to add to my collection.\nThe thing that gets me up in the morning is... Aside from the obvious\u2014my family\u2014I\u2019m truly motivated by the endless opportunities to learn, to experience new things, and to collaborate. At metrica, we are our clients way to perfection, and I\u2019m driven by that constant pursuit of perfection.\nThe restaurant in my hometown that I love to take a visitor is... Polpo, an Italian restaurant in Greenwich, Conn., where I have been living since I was a young adult, and where metrica's North American headquarters is now based.\nMark Mantione is a familiar face in the world of luxury interior design.",

Despite being cleared to box by two independent specialists, the BBB ofC's medical panel will not give him permission to fight.\nSouthpaw Weaver, who last fought as an amateur in February 2012, said he never once thought about quitting.\n\"It's been a struggle to get to this point,\" said Weaver, who won a silver medal at the 2010 European Amateur Championships in Moscow.\n\"The British board have been hard work to be honest. I never thought about quitting because it's all I've ever done and all I've ever known since I was a young boy.\n\"But it's definitely been a struggle and there were times where I wished I picked another sport.\"\nWeaver fought twice as an amateur at the famous York Hall, losing both times, notably to Joe Cordina at the GB Championships in November 2011, but says there is no place he would rather make his pro debut.\n\"Training has gone brilliant, sparring has gone well and it can't come quick enough,\" he said.\nHe will take part in a contest of four three-minute rounds but is yet to find out who is opponent will be after Hungarian Roland Mohacsi pulled out.\nAfter seeing his fellow former GB team-mates such as Tom Stalker, Khalid Yafai and Callum Smith turn pro, Weaver says he is looking forward to having a chance to step into the limelight.\n\"I've been watching all the boys doing really well,\" he added. \"I've been envious in a way because I was at their level as an amateur and training with them every day.\n\"I'm happy for them, I wish them all the best but I want to be doing what they are doing and making a name for myself now.\"\nBoard refuse Weaver licence again\nRead more on Iain Weaver: British Boxing Board of Control refuse licence\nTop promoter signs boxer Weaver\nRead more on Dorset boxer Iain Weaver signs with top promoter\nGB boxer Weaver goes professional\nRead more on GB amateur boxer Iain Weaver turns professional",

        "raw_content": "Are Big Pharma payments to advisors a conflict of interest?\nCompensation often flows from pharmaceutical companies to drug advisory panel members.\nA report conducted by Science magazine has raised red flags about a possible conflict of interest among the experts charged with advising the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on whether a medication should be granted marketing approval. Specifically, investigators uncovered a concerning trend of compensation flowing from pharmaceutical companies to drug advisory panel members.\nFDA Advisory Committees provide the agency with independent advice from outside experts \u2013 typically physicians and researchers, but also industry experts, consumers and occasionally a patient representative \u2013 on issues related to human drugs, vaccines and other biological products, and medical devices. Committee members review and discuss preclinical and clinical trial data detailing the drug\u2019s safety and efficacy profile, then vote whether to recommend the drug for approval. The FDA isn\u2019t required to follow the advice of the committees, but it usually does.\nTo identify suitable panel members, the agency first uses a well-established system to flesh out potential committee members with possible conflicts of interest that includes requiring them to reveal potential existing conflicts of interest such as details of investments, contracts, research support, or other payments from drug companies. But a loophole in this system allows prospects to keep mum about any support they may receive between the appointment to the committee and the actual panel meeting, as well as any financial incentives received after the committee votes to approve or reject a drug.\n\u201cThe people who are asked to weight this evidence impartially often stand to gain tremendously in their further professional careers from a positive relationship with the (drug) company,\u201d Vinay Prasad, hematologist-oncologist with Oregon Health & Science University Portland, told Science. Prasad studied financial conflicts in drug approvals and said that there may not be a spoken agreement between the panel member and the drug company, \u201cbut you don\u2019t have to evoke that to be very concerned. It\u2019s in their best interest to play nice with these companies.\u201d\nThe evidence is in the data, which Science pulled from physician disclosures in publications and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services records from 2013 to 2016 posted on the federal Open Payments website. The analysis focused on direct payments to physicians from companies whose pharmaceuticals were voted on as well as payments from companies selling competing drugs or researching drugs from the same class for the same indication. The analysis also looked at \u201cassociated research\u201d funding by a drug company to an FDA advisor either directly or through their institution typically for research funding. These payments are vital to a scientist\u2019s career advancement and compensation.\nWhat the analysis revealed was startling. During the four-year study period, 40 of the 107 physician advisors received more than $10,000 in earnings or research support from the drug companies whose drugs they voted to approve or from competing firms. Twenty-six received more than $100,000, and seven were given more than $1 million each.\nThe vast majority (94 percent) of the $26 million in personal payments or research support paid by the drug industry to the top 17 earning advisors came from manufacturers of drugs that advisors had either reviewed or from their competitors.\nFurthermore, most of the top earners received payments from the same drug companies while they were serving on the committee or the year prior to serving. But the FDA never disclosed this information. Science obtained it through scholarly journals.\nWeeding out bias\nGenevieve Kanter, a University of Pennsylvania economist who has studied conflicts of interest in FDA drug evaluations, told Science that the FDA system for evaluating possible conflicts of interest could be strengthened in order to protect against possible bias.\nBut Carl Elliot, a medical ethicist at the University of Minnesota, suggested that, \u201cEven in the best of circumstances, disclosure is a remarkably weak way of controlling conflicts of interest. A better way would simply be for the FDA to say, \u2018We are not taking anybody with any kind of conflict on an advisory committee.\u2019\u201d\nIt can be done. In fact, the European Medicine Agency (EMA), which holds a similar regulatory role in the United Kingdom as the FDA in the United States, prohibits the appointment of advisory committee members having any relationships with pharmaceutical companies three years prior to their service.",

        "raw_content": "Aug 2, 2018 | Posted by\tRoobens | Asia, Southeast Asia, Vietnam\t|\nOh my God! The scooters in Hanoi were annoying me to the highest degree, but I hadn\u2019t set foot in Ho Chi Minh City yet, the financial capital of Vietnam. The traffic is insane in Ho Chi Minh City, even worse than Hanoi. Many locals wear anti-pollution masks, there\u2019s noise all over the place and a constant bustle. Like New Delhi or Tehran, you have to be extremely careful when you cross the street. By the way not only when you\u2019re crossing the street, but all the damn time! The locals on their scooters don\u2019t always respect the red lights nor the direction of traffic flow. And they sometimes ride their scooters at full speed on the sidewalk!\nI\u2019m not lying!\nHo Chi Minh City, the financial capital of Vietnam\nHere I am in Ho Chi Minh City, and as soon as I arrived there, I understood why it\u2019s the economic center of Vietnam. Big buildings everywhere (I haven\u2019t seen those in a while!), crowded streets, shops all over the city\u2026 Don\u2019t forget that not that long ago, during the Vietnam war, the country was divided into two parts : North Vietnam and South Vietnam. The capital of North Vietnam was Hanoi, and in South Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City was the capital. When North and South Vietnam merged after the war, they became the country we all know now, Vietnam. What is the capital of Vietnam now? Hanoi became the capital, but Ho Chi Minh stays the economic driving force of the country. Ho Chi Minh City economy represents 20.2% of Vietnam GDP. The Ho Chi Minh City economy consists of industries ranging from agriculture, seafood processing, mining, and construction, to finance, trade and tourism.\nNotre-Dame Cathedral Basilica of Saigon. Built by the French\nPoverty and dirt in Ho Chi Minh City\nHo Chi Minh City was formerly known as Saigon, but after the end of the war in 1975, the locals wanted to pay homage to their revolutionary leader, Ho Chi Minh, who passed away in 1969, and they changed the name of the city. Although Ho Chi Minh City is the economic capital of Vietnam, I saw many homeless people\u2026 This is definitely not pleasant to see, and again, I haven\u2019t seen homeless people in quite some time. After the sunset, I realized Ho Chi Minh City is infested with rats! We don\u2019t really see them daytime, but they\u2019re numerous outside nighttime!\nStatue of Ho Chi Minh\nThe hidden face of Ho Chi Minh City\nThe 1st district of Ho Chi Minh City is bustling, actually I\u2019m thinking about Detam Street and Nguyen Hue. Two streets with bars next to one another with loud music (like Khao San Road in Bangkok!), many people, street peddlers\u2026 Many locals wear Fila, a popular brand in France in the 1990s, but still present here (and in Southeast Asia in general!). In this area, it\u2019s also possible to spot not-so-clean massage parlours, local hookers with Westerners\u2026 Makes me wanna puke!\nHow to get around in Ho Chi Minh City?\nTo get around in this big city, I used Grab quite often, it\u2019s the Uber of Southeast Asia. Not to get in a car. But to get around on a scooter! A local on his scooter picks you up, and you hop on his scooter behind him. I crossed the whole city (which is not small I remind you!), and paid almost nothing! I also took the bus a few times but I quickly stopped : sometimes they play very loud music in the bus. Otherwise, as usual, I walked a lot! And I realized I don\u2019t really like cities with too much traffic. You always have to be careful to not be run over\u2026 Don\u2019t forget to get a travel insurance if you go there!\nWhat to do in Ho Chi Minh City?\nThere\u2019s one place you cannot miss in Ho Chi Minh City. I\u2019m talking about the War Remnants Museum. It contains exhibits relating to the Vietnam war but also the Indochina war. I have to tell you right now : this museum is not for the faint of heart. And if you\u2019re traveling with kids, do not go there! We learn a lot about the war (the cause of the conflict, the Cold war context, the Soviets and China supporting North Vietnam, the US supporting South Vietnam, the international community being opposed to the war\u2026), the methods used by the US (it was horrible\u2026), but the worst can be found on the second floor. Two exhibitions can be found there, agression war crimes and agent orange aftermath in the US agressive war in Vietnam. Pictures of bodies ripped to shreds, of Vietnamese disfigured by the bombs, handicapped locals, bodies deformed by agent orange\u2026 It\u2019s horrible to watch this!\nI\u2019ll spare you the hardest photos\u2026\nOutside the museum, a few tanks and attack helicopters are exhibited. Next to the museum, a bit hidden, it\u2019s possible to see some instruments of torture used during the war\u2026 We leave this museum a bit shocked, all the faces are solemn on the way out of the museum. By the way, although it was very interesting, visiting this museum reminded me why I don\u2019t like going there (to the museum!). It\u2019s very hard to get around when so many people shuffle along the halls\u2026 It\u2019s 40000 dong to get in (1.50\u20ac).\nIn front of the War Remnants museum\nNot far from the War Remnants Museum, you\u2019ll see the Independence Palace. This palace was actually the home of the successive presidents of South Vietnam. Once North and South Vietnam merged, this palace became a historical site. Therefore it\u2019s possible to visit what once was home of former presidents, the different rooms, we learn about the history of the palace\u2026 To me, you can skip it. It\u2019s 40000 dong to get in (1.50\u20ac).\nSaigon Skydeck is on top of the Bitexco Financial Tower, and it\u2019s the tallest building in Vietnam. It\u2019s to possible to go to the 49th floor of the skyscraper, which was built as a symbol of the rapid economic growth of Vietnam. Indeed, the construction started in May 2007, and the building was inaugurated in October 2010, three years later only! There are 68 floors (there are also offices in the building), and this skyscraper has a height of 262 meters (861 ft.). It\u2019s 200000 dong (7.50\u20ac) to get on the 49th floor. To me it wasn\u2019t worth it, but it\u2019s up to you guys!\nIn Ho Chi Minh City, spend some time at the Saigon zoo and botanical gardens. A lot of children and families relax there. You got it, it\u2019s a garden with a zoo (with giraffes, elephants, etc\u2026) but also with many different rare plants. In the garden, there\u2019s also a small amusement park for kids, and a small swimming pool. It\u2019s 50000 dong (almost two euros) to get in. There\u2019s also a history museum next to the garden, but I didn\u2019t go.\nYou can also have a look at the post office, they sell local souvenirs there. And of course go to the market where they sell anything you can think about : T-shirts, sunglasses, fruits, watches, leather goods, toys\u2026 Honestly, I cannot say I had a good time in Ho Chi Minh City The noise, the pollution, the rats\u2026 I visited many big cities that I liked but this time, for some reason, I was happy to leave\u2026\nInfo to visit Ho Chi Minh City\nHow to get to Ho Chi Minh City? By plane, there are regular flights from Hanoi or even from Da Nang. From Hoi An, a van can pick you up at your hotel and drop you off at the Da Nang airport. It\u2019s 136000 dong (5 euros). You can also take a taxi if you want to, but you\u2019ll pay 240000 dong (almost 9 euros). Otherwise, you can take the bus from Hoi An all the way to Ho Chi Minh City. It\u2019s a 22-hours ride, and the ticket costs 500000 dong (18.50\u20ac).\nCompare the hotel rates on HotelsCombined.\nCheck the various activities in Ho Chi Minh City.",

        "raw_content": "Mar 9, 2018 | Posted by\tRoobens | Asia, Nepal, South Asia\t|\nI didn\u2019t have any particular expectations regarding Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Because all the travelers I met on the road beforehand, who had been there before I did, told me not so good things \u201cKathmandu is in chaos! Cars everywhere, it\u2019s filthy, very noisy and there\u2019s nothing to do there! You don\u2019t need to stay in Kathamdu, there\u2019s a lot better elsewhere in the country!\u201d\nHonestly, after spending a few weeks in India, I didn\u2019t find Kathmandu that horrible. I had heard tens of times how crazy the city is with all the cars, the crowd, thr stray dogs, the noise\u2026 But truthfully speaking, after my stay in New Delhi, nothing shocks me anymore. Yes Kathmandu is crowded, yes there are many cars, yes you\u2019ll see stray dogs (all over South Asia actually\u2026). But I\u2019m not lying, this is nothing compared to India, especially if we compare Kathmandu with New Delhi.\nAs I was walking around the streets of Kathmandu, there\u2019s one thing I noticed : the locals. Almost all of them were wearing anti-pollution masks. However I visited cities more polluted than Kathmandu, I\u2019m thinking about Tehran. But yeah, I understand why they all wear those masks, there are cars everywhere but most importantly, dust all over the place. Yeah, Kathmandu is a city with an enormous amount of dust outside, just as much as India, if not more. Oh and I can\u2019t forget all the electric cables hanging above your head\u2026 Thus having a walk outside is not always enjoyable\u2026\nElectric cables everywhere in Kathmandu\nIn the streets of Kathmandu, we can see several shops selling tailor-made suits, but most of the shops there sell all you need if you want to trek in the mountains of Nepal. In case you didn\u2019t know, almost all the travelers going to Nepal plan to trek in the country (Annapurna trek, Everest, etc\u2026). Therefore, almost all the travelers I saw there (men and women) were in very good shape, and they had athletic bodies. Clearly, people who take care of themselves!\n\u201cNepali set\u201d, what locals eat. Rice, vegetables, sauce, sometimes meat\u2026 Tasty, and cheap!\nYou can find anything you need if you want to trek in Nepal, and you can either buy it or rent it if you don\u2019t need the equipment after leaving the country. Renting is not expensive, neither buying but be careful, counterfeiting is the norm there! You\u2019ll notice that almost all the Nepalese wear North Face jackets, but they\u2019re fake and poor-quality\u2026 It\u2019s the same when you get in a shop selling North Face, you just need to touch them to realize they\u2019re fake (hence the very low prices\u2026).\nSeveral temples in Kathmandu\nI remember a female traveler I met in Isfahan, Iran, who told me she didn\u2019t like Nepal at all. Because she doesn\u2019t like countries were people mistreat animals. Sad to say, but she was right. I saw several times guys smacking their dogs, an old woman hitting a kitten with a broomstick\u2026 A dog approached me, growling and the owner\u2019s dog punched the poor dog in the eye! \u201cHey! You shouldn\u2019t have to do this!\u201d \u201cNext time, I\u2019ll let him bite you and we\u2019ll see if you\u2019ll keep saying the same thing\u2026\u201d\nA lot of dust in the streets of Kathmandu\nLocals seem to be relaxed there, just doing their things. Some of them look like Indians, others look like Chinese. There\u2019s no typical \u201cNepalese\u201d look. People greeted me several times in the street, they sometimes asked for a picture (teens mostly). I also saw several guys holding hands. They\u2019re not gay, it\u2019s just comradeship. Oh and guys there kept asking me if I needed marijuana, at least ten times\u2026\nSeveral earthquakes hit Kathmandu in April and May 2015, killing more than 8000 people\u2026 The city was still destroyed in some areas\nI have to tell you, there\u2019s almost nothing to visit in Kathmandu. You\u2019ll notice there are many temples spread all over the city. The only quiet and peaceful place, is the Garden of Dreams. You\u2019ll have to pay 200 rupees (1.65\u20ac) to get in, and it\u2019s possible to relax once you\u2019re in there. Many teenagers, some tourists reading on the lawn, a caf\u00e9 to have a drink and a room with paintings and work of art from Nepal.\nHonestly, with all the bad things I heard about Kathmandu, I was expecting worse than what I saw. I\u2019m not saying this city is wonderful, but Kathmandu is not as bas as what I heard before getting there. Let\u2019s be honest, Kathmandu is usually the first step when you get in Nepal, a city where you spend one or two nights, before going elsewhere in the country.\nInfo to visit Kathmandu\nDo not go to Nepal without a travel insurance!\nLike anywhere else in the area, the cost of living is pretty low. It\u2019s possible to have a good meal there for les than two euros, and to stay in a hostel for a few euros per night. Check Agoda or HotelsCombined.\nTravelers go to Nepal to trek in the mountains, however I didn\u2019t trek in the country\u2026 It\u2019s my own fault, I didn\u2019t get organized well enough (the visa, a local trying to sell me a trek and to rip me off, and a few other things\u2026). Anyway, one day in the future\u2026\nCheck the activities you can do in Nepal. And if needed, get a Nepal travel guide .\nI didn\u2019t write about it, but I\u2019ve also been to the Chitwan National Park, very famous in Nepal. I was with two girls. We started the day on a canoe, then we walked around in the park, in the middle of hair grass. We had two guides with us, one was walking in front of the group, the other one behind us. Because there are tigers in the park (we saw tiger footprints several times on the floor). We saw rhinos a few times, but no tigers. The day in the park was 4700 rupees (almost 40 euros), expensive for what it was, and we spent a night in a hostel not too far. From Pokhara, a bus goes there every morning. I paid 650 rupees (5.40\u20ac) for the six-hour ride in the bus. And from the park, you can go back to Kathmandu by bus for 600 rupees (5 euros).",

        "raw_content": "Insurer Didn\u2019t Want to Take Responsibility in Patient\u2019s Wrong-Site Surgery Case\nA Virginia medical malpractice case involving a patient who was harmed by a wrong-site surgery has recently been filed. Lexi Fincher had a small mass on the back of her right shoulder that was causing her pain. She went to see a central Virginia doctor, who diagnosed the mass as a benign tumor, also known as lipoma. Surgery was scheduled for May 2008, to remove the mass at the Fredericksburg Ambulatory Surgery Center.\nWhat should have been a routine surgery, turned into a fiasco. The nurses at the surgery center prepped the back of the patient's shoulder for surgery. However, the problem started after Ms. Fincher was under anesthesia. The doctor examined both sides of her shoulder and could not locate the lipoma. After examining the MRI that was conducted beforehand, he decided that the lump was on the front of her shoulder, despite that a radiologist had reported that the lipoma was on her back.\nThe doctor went on an exploration trying to find the lipoma. He unnecessarily split muscle and tissue. Even with all that probing and splitting of tissue and muscle, the lipoma was not removed.\nMs. Fincher returned to his office the next day. When the dressing was taken off, she could still see the lipoma. The doctor admitted to the mistake. However, the surgeon\u2019s medical malpractice insurance company claimed that the surgeon didn\u2019t do anything wrong and denied the patient\u2019s attempt to settle the case.\nWhile this might be a smaller medical malpractice case, Ms. Fincher wants to make a point. You\u2019ve got to stand up and take responsibility when you make a mistake.\nHere\u2019s my take - we have to stand for something and that something is you can't scream for tort reform and deny valid claims.",

        "raw_content": "What happens if there is injury to the unborn child?\nCastle v. Lester, 272 Va. 591, 636 S.E.2d 342 (2006)\nROBERT L. CASTLE, M.D., ET AL.\nKARYN LESTER\nPresent: Hassell, C.J., Lacy, Keenan, Kinser,\nLemons, and Agee, JJ., and Russell, S.J.\nAppeal from a judgment of the Circuit Court of Fairfax County. Hon. Gaylord L. Finch, Jr., judge presiding.\nJUSTICE KINSER delivered the opinion of the Court.\nIn this medical-malpractice claim by a mother for injuries arising from the birth of her neurologically impaired child, the defendant-doctor asks the Court to reconsider its holding in Bulala v. Boyd, 239 Va. 218, 389 S.E.2d 670 (1990). We find no reason to overrule that decision and therefore conclude that the trial court did not err in instructing the jury \u201cthat injury to an unborn child in the womb of the mother is to be considered as physical injury to the mother.\u201d We also conclude that the trial court did not err in admitting evidence relevant to the mother's claim for damages for mental suffering due to the birth of her impaired son, including evidence regarding the nature and extent of the child's injuries, his daily care needs, and his life expectancy, as well as evidence about the mother's depression and loss of income. Finally, we conclude the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it denied the doctor's motion for a mistrial after the mother testified that the doctor left the hospital during her labor. Thus, we will affirm the judgment of the circuit court.\nI. RELEVANT FACTS AND PROCEEDINGS1\nKaryn Lester (Lester), and Dusty L. Lester, Jr., by his parent and next friend Karyn Lester (Dusty), filed a motion for judgment in the [Page 596] Circuit Court of Fairfax County, alleging that the appellants, Dr. Robert L. Castle, M.D., and his professional corporation, Fairfax OB-GYN Associates, P.C. (collectively, Dr. Castle), were liable for injuries to both Lester and Dusty resulting from Dr. Castle's negligence in monitoring and managing Lester's labor and effecting Dusty's delivery. Dusty's alleged damages included severe neurological and physical injuries, pain and suffering, mental anguish, future medical expenses, and lost income. Lester alleged that, as a result of Dr. Castle's negligence, she suffered, inter alia, physical injuries, mental anguish, and lost income.\nPrior to trial, Dr. Castle settled Dusty's claims. He subsequently admitted liability with regard to Lester's claims against him. Thus, the litigation continued only with respect to the amount, if any, of Lester's damages.2\nIn light of the settlement of Dusty's case, Dr. Castle filed a motion in limine, seeking to exclude any reference to Dusty's injuries, damages, life expectancy, and costs of medical treatment. Dr. Castle asserted that admitting such evidence would be unfairly prejudicial, would confuse the jury, and would permit Lester to litigate claims already settled, thereby opening the door to an improper, double recovery. Lester agreed to exclude evidence of Dusty's medical expenses, conceding that those damages were included in Dr. Castle's settlement with her son, but she opposed the exclusion of evidence concerning the extent of Dusty's injuries and his diminished life expectancy. The trial court agreed with Lester, denying Dr. Castle's motion in limine with respect to evidence about Dusty's injuries and life expectancy and granting it with respect to the costs of treating and raising a neurologically impaired child.\nAt trial, Lester offered into evidence the videotaped, de bene esse deposition of Dr. Shlomo Shinnar, an expert in the field of pediatric neurology. Dr. Castle had previously objected to Dr. Shinnar's testimony, claiming that, while it would be appropriate for a jury to understand that Dusty was born severely neurologically compromised, the details of Dusty's condition since birth, as well as Dr. Shinnar's opinions about Dusty's current neurological and physical condition and life expectancy, were not relevant to the issue of damages sustained personally by Lester. Dr. Castle asserted that such evidence would lead to a double recovery for Dusty's injuries. The trial [Page 597] court overruled Dr. Castle's objection and allowed Dr. Shinnar's videotaped deposition to be admitted into evidence and viewed by the jury.\nAfter explaining the records he had reviewed and his examination of Dusty, Dr. Shinnar described Dusty's physical and neurological problems and the kind of care Lester must provide on a daily basis to her son. He testified that Dusty is unable to swallow, thus requiring him to be nourished by means of a permanent gastrostomy tube that delivers food directly into Dusty's stomach. The tube is necessary, according to Dr. Shinnar, because Dusty's neurological condition has damaged the muscles that allow a healthy infant's food to pass into the stomach instead of the lungs and that ordinarily cause a person to cough up food that he or she accidentally inhales. Dusty is also at risk for aspirating his saliva because of his difficulty in swallowing. Dr. Shinnar described the treatment Lester administers to Dusty to keep his lungs clear of secretions and saliva, which includes using a suctioning device eight to ten times, on a good day, while he is awake and several times during the night, and performing chest physical therapy six to seven times per day. The physical therapy requires Lester to pound lightly on Dusty's chest in order to move secretions up out of his lungs.\nDr. Shinnar also discussed the impact of Dusty's condition on his ability to breathe. Because of Dusty's frequent episodes of pneumonia and aspirations of saliva and other secretions, he already has lung disease. Consequently, Dusty receives oxygen via prongs continuously attached to his nose. According to Dr. Shinnar, without oxygen supplementation, the saturation of oxygen in Dusty's bloodstream would fall so low as to cause him to have trouble breathing and to gasp for air.\nWith respect to Dusty's motor functioning, Dr. Shinnar testified that Dusty will never be able to walk or sit up independently, and that Lester provides physical therapy to Dusty several times each day, during which she moves Dusty's joints for him in order to prevent them from permanently contracting into fixed positions. As to Dusty's development, Dr. Shinnar stated that, as a result of Dusty's neurological abnormalities, Dusty is developing a mild curvature of his spine, that the growth of his head is stunted, that he is deaf, that he will never be able to communicate beyond the vocalizations of a newborn, that he will never be able to recognize his mother's voice or visual appearance, that he will never attain the level of functioning [Page 598] of a six-month-old child, and that he likely will never attain the functional level of even a three-month-old child.\nIn summary, Dr. Shinnar opined that Dusty is and will remain totally dependent for all his care needs and that he actually is more dependent than a newborn baby because a healthy newborn can usually breathe independently. Finally, Dr. Shinnar testified that Dusty's life expectancy is approximately seven years of age.\nLester testified on her own behalf at trial. A considerable portion of her testimony consisted of a video slide presentation, during which she described the tasks she performs on a daily basis to care for Dusty. Lester explained how she administers chest physical therapy and nebulizer treatments for 15 to 25 minutes about every four hours in order to keep Dusty's airway clear of saliva and secretions. In addition, she performs suction treatments on Dusty at least ten times daily. Some of the suctioning consists of \u201cdeep suction\u201d treatments, which involve placing a tube in the back of Dusty's throat and causing him to gag in order to suck secretions from his airway. Every three to four hours, according to Lester, she feeds Dusty for 20 to 30 minutes by pouring milk through a feeding tube that is connected to a valve surgically implanted in Dusty's abdomen. She also testified that Dusty requires several medications every day, which she administers at intervals ranging from eight to 12 hours. Lester explained that she must take along Dusty's suctioning machine and oxygen supply whenever she transports him outside the home because he can never be without the equipment.\nLester also described the impact giving birth to Dusty and caring for him has had on her personal health. She claimed to have sustained hemorrhaging as a result of the delivery. Her constant care of Dusty since his birth allows her to sleep only in increments of about 30 minutes. Lester claimed not to have slept continuously for eight hours since before Dusty's birth, and because of his breathing difficulties, she must sleep in Dusty's room.\nWith respect to her mental health, Lester testified that, because caring for Dusty consumes all of her time, she is \u201cnot ever happy,\u201d and that she routinely takes prescription antidepressant medication. Although Lester initially returned to work after Dusty's birth, she said she eventually took a leave of absence after being diagnosed with depression.\nIn poignant detail, Lester described how she feels about her son and caring for him: [Page 599]\nSometimes he smiles, and that lights my life up. That's the greatest thing in the whole wide world to me now if he'll smile. But he doesn't do that every day. Sometimes he goes days without even looking at me.\nMost of the time he looks down to the left, which is part of his cerebral palsy. He doesn't reach out to touch you. He doesn't move his arms and legs. He doesn't suck a bottle. I couldn't breast-feed him. There is no joy in taking care of my son. I love my son to death, but my son is a job. It's . . . it's constant. It's . . . I don't know how to describe what it feels like to pour feed into somebody.\nYou know, eating is one of the normal pleasures of life. People celebrate with food. It's part of your life. He doesn't even have that. He doesn't even get to eat. And I have to pour food into him to keep him alive. It's what I do. I keep him alive, and I pray constantly that God is going to heal this child because he doesn't have a life, and I don't have a life anymore. My life is keeping him alive. And there's no joy in it. The only joy that I get is on the occasion when he smiles.\nLester's testimony also described the series of events and tests whereby she came to understand the extent of Dusty's neurological impairments. She related that she was not permitted to touch Dusty for several weeks after he was born because he had to remain in a neonatal intensive care unit. During the weeks and months after Dusty's birth, Lester learned that her son would never be able to eat and that he needed to have surgery that would permanently secure a feeding tube to his abdomen and tie the top of his stomach together so as to prevent him from vomiting. Through observation of tests performed on Dusty, Lester learned that he is blind and deaf. When Dusty was about four to five months old, a pediatric developmental therapist informed Lester that Dusty would never walk or talk.\nAs pertinent to the issues on appeal, the trial court gave, over Dr. Castle's objection, Instruction No. 6, which told the jury \u201cthat injury to an unborn child in the womb of the mother is to be considered as physical injury to the mother.\u201d Dr. Castle asserted that Instruction No. 6 was not appropriate since this case involved a live birth, as opposed to a stillbirth, and that it would allow Lester to recover for the same physical injuries for which Dusty had already been compensated.\nThe trial court also gave Instruction No. 5, which stated: [Page 600]\nIf you find your verdict for the plaintiff, then in determining the damages to which she is entitled, you shall consider any of the following which you believe by the greater weight of the evidence was caused by the negligence of the defendants:\n(1) any bodily injuries she sustained and their effect on her health according to their degree;\n(2) any mental anguish she suffered in the past and any that she may be reasonably expected to suffer in the future;\n(3) any associated humiliation or embarrassment;\n(4) any inconvenience caused in the past and any that probably will be caused in the future;\n(5) any earnings she lost because she was unable to work at her calling.\nYour verdict should be for such sum as will fully and fairly compensate the plaintiff for the damages sustained as a result of the defendant's negligence.\nThe jury returned a verdict awarding Lester $1.6 million in damages. The trial court entered judgment for Lester in accordance with the jury verdict. Dr. Castle appeals from that judgment.\nA. Mother's Injuries Arising from the Birth\nof an Impaired Child\n[1] In this appeal, we once again address two previous rulings of this Court, that an injury to a fetus constitutes an injury to the mother, Modaber v. Kelley, 232 Va. 60, 66, 348 S.E.2d 233, 237 (1986); and that a mother who gives birth to an impaired child is entitled to recover, as part of her individual cause of action, damages for her mental suffering resulting from the birth. Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675; see also Fairfax Hosp. Sys., Inc. v. McCarty, 244 Va. 28, 37, 419 S.E.2d 621, 626-27 (1992). Dr. Castle asks us to reconsider our holding in Bulala because that decision, he argues, extended \u201cthe rule in Modaber beyond its supporting rationale.\u201d\nDr. Castle's quarrel with Bulala underpins two of his three assignments of error. First, he contends the trial court erred in giving Instruction No. 6 to the jury because Dusty was born alive and therefore [Page 601] had his own separate claim for his personal injuries, for which he had already been compensated. Second, Dr. Castle claims \u201cthe trial court erred in allowing . . . jury instructions permitting, and evidence supporting, . . . Lester's claims for damages from mental suffering due to her son's impairment, including evidence regarding her son's life expectancy, condition, and care needs, and [her] depression and lost earnings.\u201d\nIn support of these two assignments of error, Dr. Castle argues the decision in Modaber allowing a mother's claim for physical injury and mental anguish arising from her child's stillbirth was necessary to mitigate the harshness of the common law \u201crule that an unborn child is a part of the mother until birth and, as such, has no juridical existence.\u201d Lawrence v. Craven Tire Co., 210 Va. 138, 142, 169 S.E.2d 440, 442 (1969) (internal quotation omitted). Dr. Castle contends the need to allow a mother to recover such damages disappears when the child is born alive, albeit impaired, and becomes a \u201cperson\u201d with legal recourse for his or her own prenatal injuries. Furthermore, according to Dr. Castle, when a child is born alive, continued recognition of his or her prenatal injuries as being those of the mother allows an impermissible double recovery for the same injury, once by the mother, and again by the child. The essence of Dr. Castle's argument is that Lester should have recovered only for her own physical injuries and resulting mental anguish and not for any mental suffering caused by the birth of her severely impaired son and the need for her to provide him with around-the-clock care. Thus, Dr. Castle asks this Court to reconsider our decision in Bulala and to hold that the trial court erred in giving Instruction No. 6 and in admitting evidence concerning the severity of Dusty's impairments, his ongoing care needs, and his life expectancy.\n[2-3] Of course, Dr. Castle's request that we revisit our decision in Bulala implicates the doctrine of stare decisis. Time and again, we have said:\nIn Virginia, the doctrine of stare decisis is more than a mere cliche. That doctrine plays a significant role in the orderly administration of justice by assuring consistent, predictable, and balanced application of legal principles. And when a court of last resort has established a precedent, after full deliberation upon the issue by the court, the precedent will not be treated lightly or ignored, in the absence of flagrant error or mistake. [Page 602]\nPulliam v. Coastal Emergency Servs., Inc., 257 Va. 1, 10, 509 S.E.2d 307, 312 (1999) (quoting Selected Risks Ins. Co. v. Dean, 233 Va. 260, 265, 355 S.E.2d 579, 581 (1987)); see also Nunnally v. Artis, 254 Va. 247, 252-53, 492 S.E.2d 126, 128-29 (1997); Kelly v. Trehy, 133 Va. 160, 169, 112 S.E. 757, 760 (1922). We have previously considered the issues presented in this appeal, and we entertain them again today. Nonetheless, we are convinced that our holding in Bulala was not a \u201cflagrant error or mistake,\u201d Pulliam, 257 Va. at 10, 509 S.E.2d at 312, but was well reasoned and remains good law.\n[4] In Modaber, the issue before the Court was whether a mother sustained personal injuries, as well as mental suffering, as a result of the stillbirth of her child. 232 Va. at 61, 348 S.E.2d at 233. A jury found that the defendant-obstetrician's negligence had caused the plaintiff's unborn child to die in the womb. Id. at 62, 65, 348 S.E.2d at 234-36. The trial court in that case gave an instruction identical to the one Dr. Castle assigns as error here: \u201c[I]njury to an unborn child in the womb of the mother is to be considered as physical injury to the mother.\u201d Id. at 65, 348 S.E.2d at 236. We concluded that the instruction was a correct statement of the law and that the mother \u201cmay recover for such physical injury and mental suffering associated with a stillbirth.\u201d Id. at 66, 348 S.E.2d at 236-37. Clearly, the decision in Modaber was a logical consequence of our prior holding that, since a fetus is not a legally cognizable \u201cperson\u201d separate from its mother until birth, Virginia's wrongful death statute does not allow a cause of action for the death of an unborn child. Id. at 66, 348 S.E.2d at 236-37 (citing Lawrence, 210 Va. at 140-42, 169 S.E.2d at 441-42).\n[5] In Bulala, we examined the elements of a mother's compensatory damage claim and that of her child when the defendant-doctor's negligence caused the child, though born alive, to be seriously impaired. 239 Va. at 229-30, 389 S.E.2d at 675-76. We concluded that the mother and child were both \u201cpatients\u201d of the defendant, each of whom was entitled to a separate statutory damage cap under the Virginia Medical Malpractice Act. Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675-76. We preserved Modaber's rule that prenatal injury to a fetus constitutes physical injury to the mother and, therefore, permitted the mother to recover damages for the \u201cmental suffering resulting from the birth of a defective child.\u201d Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675.\nConcluding that, at the moment of birth, the child also became the defendant's \u201cpatient,\u201d we allowed the child to recover \u201cthe usual [Page 603] elements of damage . . . appropriate to any infant's personal injury action.\u201d Bulala, 239 Va. at 229-30, 389 S.E.2d at 676. Under the rule we announced the same day in Kalafut v. Gruver, 239 Va. 278, 389 S.E.2d 681 (1990), damages recoverable by the impaired child included those arising out of harm inflicted on the child by the defendant before birth. Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675. In Kalafut, \u201c[w]e drew the line between nonliability and liability for prenatal injury at the moment of live birth of the child, when the child becomes a \u2018person,\u2019\u201d Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675, and accordingly held that a \u201ctortfeasor who causes harm to an unborn child is subject to liability to the child, or to the child's estate, for the harm to the child, if the child is born alive.\u201d Kalafut, 239 Va. at 283-84, 389 S.E.2d at 684.\n[6] The decisions in Bulala and Kalafut collectively established that, when a fetus sustains injury and is subsequently born alive, the mother and the impaired child each have a claim for damages resulting from the negligently caused, in utero injury. Those two claims, however, encompass different elements. As the Court in Bulala uniformly accepted, a mother's claim is solely for her mental suffering arising from the birth of a defective child. Whatever disagreement existed in that case as to whom was a proper plaintiff turned on whether the child could assert her own claims for injuries she suffered prior to becoming a legal \u201cperson.\u201d See Bulala, 239 Va. at 235-37, 389 S.E.2d at 679-80 (Russell, J., dissenting).\nEven in the absence of settled precedent, Dr. Castle's arguments are without merit. Dr. Castle does not assert that Modaber was wrongly decided. But, in Dr. Castle's view, the mother's physical injury due to injury to her fetus disappears at the moment her child is born alive, as if it had never occurred. Such an outcome would be inconsistent with the holding in Modaber, and we decline to make it the law of the Commonwealth.\n[7] Neither can we accept Dr. Castle's double-recovery argument as a justification for overturning Bulala. We have considered and discarded the same proposition on more than one occasion. The doctor in Bulala contended that his alleged negligence caused \u201cbut one injury \u2014 the injury to the child.\u201d Brief of Appellant Bulala at 9, Bulala v. Boyd, 239 Va. 218, 389 S.E.2d 670 (1990) (Record No. 890900). On that basis, he argued further, \u201cAny claim which the parents may have is derivative of the action for the injury to the child.\u201d Id. The Court agreed that the claim for emotional distress asserted by the child's father was \u201cwholly derivative of the child's claim,\u201d but specifically [Page 604] held, \u201c[T]he mother, as part of her claim, would be entitled to recover for mental suffering resulting from the birth of a defective child.\u201d Bulala, 239 Va. at 229, 389 S.E.2d at 675 (emphasis added).\nOur other decisions confirm that Dr. Castle's double-recovery argument is without merit. In Kalafut, we made it clear that \u201cin Modaber we did not say that injury to the fetus constituted harm only to the mother . . . .\u201d 239 Va. at 285, 389 S.E.2d at 684. Two years later, in McCarty, we upheld an award of damages for a mother's emotional distress resulting from injuries inflicted in utero that caused her child to be born with severe neurological impairments. 244 Va. at 37, 419 S.E.2d at 626-27. The defendant in that case advanced the same argument raised by Dr. Castle, namely, that a mother should not be allowed to recover damages for mental anguish caused by giving birth to an impaired, but living, child. See Brief of Appellant at 35-41, Fairfax Hosp. Sys., Inc. v. McCarty, 244 Va. 28, 419 S.E.2d 621 (1992) (Record No. 911203). In doing so, the defendant in McCarty suggested that our holding in Bulala did not permit a mother to recover damages for mental suffering resulting from prenatal injury to the fetus, but only recognized a mother's claim for mental anguish damages stemming from the physical injuries she suffered personally, separate and apart from those inflicted upon the fetus. See id. at 39. Despite the fact the mother in McCarty did not suffer an independent physical injury during her labor and delivery of the child, as did the mothers in this case and in Bulala, we dismissed the proposed distinction and, once again, held that a mother can recover damages for her mental suffering resulting from the birth of an impaired child, irrespective of her impaired child's separate cause of action. McCarty, 244 Va. at 37, 419 S.E.2d at 626-27.\n[8] In light of our conclusion that Bulala remains good law and should not be overturned, Instruction No. 6 was a correct statement of the law, and the trial court did not err in giving the instruction to the jury. Nevertheless, Dr. Castle argues that Instruction No. 6, when read in conjunction with Instruction No. 5, confused the jury as to whom \u2014 Lester or Dusty \u2014 was entitled to compensation for Dusty's physical injuries. For that reason, he insists giving Instruction No. 6 constituted reversible error. Specifically, he contends that, after the trial court told jurors in Instruction No. 5 that they should consider, in determining Lester's damages, \u201cany bodily injuries she sustained,\u201d the instruction, \u201c[I]njury to an unborn child in the womb of the mother is to be considered as physical injury to the mother,\u201d [Page 605] wrongly allowed the jury to compensate Lester for all of Dusty's bodily injuries.\n[9-10] Undeniably, \u201cthe office of an instruction is to fully and fairly inform the jury as to the law of the case applicable to the particular facts, and not to confuse them.\u201d Gaalaas v. Morrison, 233 Va. 148, 156, 353 S.E.2d 898, 902 (1987) (internal quotation omitted). \u201cInstructions should be pertinent to the issues and set out correct legal principles complete in themselves as far as they go with regard to the specific issues involved. If an instruction may reasonably be regarded as having a tendency to mislead the jury, it is error to give it.\u201d H.W. Miller Trucking Co. v. Flood, 203 Va. 934, 937, 128 S.E.2d 437, 440 (1962). We will not find error when a jury was instructed correctly as to the law and the surrounding circumstances assure us that the jury was not confused about its obligations. See Murray v. Commonwealth, 225 Va. 13, 16-17, 300 S.E.2d 740, 742-43 (1983).\n[11-12] The record in the case at bar reveals multiple instances when the trial court and both parties apprised the jury that Lester's claims were not to be confused with Dusty's. Before impaneling the jury, the trial court provided the veniremen with some details about the case in an instruction drafted by the parties:\nThe facts are as follows, a brief summary. Dusty Lester, Jr., who is now 15 months old was born on June 22nd of 2004. He suffers from severe neurological injury. This case is being brought by the mother, Karyn Lester, for her damages as a result of injuries to her son. The parties have stipulated as to liability. Therefore, the only issue before you is that of damages.\nDuring voir dire, counsel for Lester explained:\n[I]n this case the law says that injury to a baby in the womb is injury to the mother. And you will get that instruction later on in the case. Before birth an injury to the baby is an injury to the mother. . . .\n. . . And as a result you will not hear testimony about the medical costs of raising the baby, of caring for the baby. You will not hear about the baby's future or anything like that. This is the mother's claim for injury. [Page 606]\nCounsel for Dr. Castle provided the venire with an even clearer explanation of the issue in the case:\nThis case that you are going to hear . . . is not a case for you to determine injuries to Dusty Lester, Jr., and, more importantly, to compensate Dusty Lester, Jr. for those injuries.\nThose issues are for another group, another day. It is not your job to award compensation to Dusty Lester, Jr. for injuries that he sustained during the birth process.\nRather what you are going to be asked to do is to compensate his mother for her emotional distress in dealing with the fact that her son was injured in the birth process.\nYou are not compensating the child. That's why you're not going to hear anything about the costs of raising the child or anything like that. That's for others to decide. What you are going to decide only, only [sic] is the issue with respect to the mother's damages.\nHe then asked, \u201c[I]s there anybody on this panel who cannot separate the two and deal with only the issue that I've outlined for you?\u201d No one on the panel responded in the affirmative.\nBefore opening statements, the trial court cautioned the jurors:\nThis case involves an action by Karyn Lester, the mother of Dusty Lester. It is separate and apart from any separate action brought by her child, Dusty Lester.\nYou are not to concern yourselves with any action brought on behalf of the child and should only consider this current action by the mother against the defendant, Dr. Castle, which is the case you are deciding today and tomorrow.\nIn his opening argument, Dr. Castle's attorney again reminded the jury that what it was being\nasked to do is keep separate and apart the case involving the injuries to the child which are admittedly severe. They are catastrophic. There is no doubt about that.\nBut, as I discussed with you earlier this morning and as Judge Finch instructed you a few minutes ago, that's for another group, that's for another day. What we're talking about here are the injuries to Mrs. Lester. [Page 607]\nBoth sides touched on the subject again in their closing arguments. Lester's counsel told the jury, \u201c[Counsel for Dr. Castle] will tell you, \u2018This is not the baby's case. This is the mother's case. And don't confuse the two.\u2019 And he's right. I agree with him there.\u201d Counsel for Dr. Castle stated:\nAs I said to you before and as Judge Finch has said to you, those child's problems are for others to view at another time.\nHe admonished you, if you recall, at the beginning of the evidence that you need to and indeed you are instructed to keep the two separate. You are not to compensate Karyn Lester for the injuries that Dusty Lester sustained. You are to compensate Karyn Lester for her injuries. . . .\nClearly the woman is entitled to compensation. However, what she is not entitled to is what belongs to Dusty Lester. What belongs to Dusty Lester is for, as I said, others to decide. We need to separate them. As hard as that it is, we need to separate them.\nThus, the record is replete with reminders to the jury about its obligation to compensate Lester only for her damages, not for the damages sustained by her son. Furthermore, the jurors did not hear evidence pertaining to Dusty's claims, for example.",

        "raw_content": "The Evolution of the Infamous Golden State Warriors\n\"Breaking News: Kevin Durant Signs With Golden State Warriors.\" It was a headline that you had to be blind to miss if you have the slightest interest in sports. ESPN couldn't get enough of it, it was overload. Since the day of the signing, the Golden State Warriors have been marked men, and are looked at as the villains of the NBA.\nAlthough, before this signing the Warriors were just a bunch of guys that ?just got good playing with one another, and then emerged as all-stars. With the signing of 2014 MVP Kevin Durant made it seem as though the Warriors needed a starting five of Western Conference all-stars to win another championship. Before this villainous team was born the Golden State Warriors have had a rich and interesting history dating all the way back to 1946.\nThe esteemed franchise we know of today as the Golden State Warriors went through a variety of names. They first were the Philadelphia Warriors. During their time known by the name in the latter was when their first championship was won. The championship was won in the 1946-1947 season when the Warriors beat the Chicago Stags in five games. Even though the NBA merger did not take place until 1949, this championship is still recognized as their first.\nThe next name that the present day Golden State Warriors would take on during their rise to prominence would be the San Fransisco Warriors. This name change took place in 1962. The following season to when they established themselves under this name is when they started to become a powerhouse in the NBA. In the 1963-1964 the San Francisco Warriors drafted Nate Thurmond and Wilt Chamberlin who both would be an intricate part to helping propel the team to the Western Division crown. Chamberlin would soon after be traded to the Philadelphia 76ers, and the following season the Warriors would only win 17 games.\nIn the 1971-1972 season the team became the perennial power we all know today as the Golden State Warriors. When the team made the name transition, they played all but six games in Oakland, the other six took place in San Diego. The Warriors under their new name instantly became a dominant force. They made the playoffs 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1976, and 1977. Although they were absent from the 1974 playoffs they came firing back they next season and won the NBA championship in a decisive four game sweep against the Washington Bullets.\nDespite these dominant years in the NBA, the Golden State Warriors began to somewhat fall off the radar and started to become more known as a bottom tier team. The years between 1978-1987 saw the Warriors cursed with bad luck. They got involved with a trade with the New York Knicks where they acquired Bernard Kind, but unfortunately did not have enough money to pay him, which in turn forced them to trade him quickly. The Warriors also traded away a draft pick that soon become Kevin McHale.\nAfter 1987, the Warriors starting regaining some momentum similar to that of the 1970s and early 1980s. They were able to play well enough to reach the Western Conference semifinals against Magic Johnson and his Lakers. During this series loss, the Warriors point guard at the time, Sleepy Floyd, scored the most points in one half during a playoff game in NBA history.\nBy the time the 1993-1994 season came around, the Warriors organization was back in the dumps. Rookie of the Year, Chris Webber, and point guard Latrell Sprewell had teamed had been on one side of recurring arguments, and Coach Nelson on the other. This tension caused all three to go their separate ways, and the team began going downhill. The Warriors would not truly regain their fire until the Steph Curry Era.\nThe Steph Curry Era\nSteph Curry was drafted in 2009, but was plagued by much injury, which hindered his greatness until 2011. In 2011 Steph begun to electrify crowds with his unmatchable three-point shooting ability, and swift ball-handling skills. He also was one of the two splash brothers. Klay Thompson was the other.\nThe season where the splash brothers, and specifically Steph shined, was in 2014-2015. They led the Warriors to a 65-15 record, which at the time was the best in franchise history, and on top of this they were virtually unbeatable at home, which was proven by their 39-2 record. Steph would go on to win the 2015 MVP, which was the first time a Warriors player won the award since Wilt Chamberlain. During this season the Warriors would go on to win the NBA championship against the Cleveland Cavaliers, which would ignite a saga of NBA championships.\nThe Record Breaking Season\nLed by Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson the Warriors would go on to have the best season in NBA history (73-9) by besting the the 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls by one game. Steph himself would go on to win the MVP unanimously, while breaking numerous three-point records including most three pointers made in one season, which he demolished by making 402 (the previous record was 286). Despite all the accolades Steph Curry and the Warriors had won, they fell short to the Cleveland Cavilers in 7 games, where at one point during the series they were up 3 games to 1.\nPart 3 of the Cavs - Warriors Trilogy\nAfter falling short to the Cavilers in the 2016 season the Warriors made a big splash in free agency my signing superstar Kevin Durant. With this addition four of their five starters were now all-stars. This signified the \"super-team\" era. This acquisition was controversial because many thought the Warriors had an unfair lineup. During the year of the acquiring of Kevin Durant \"KD\" the Warriors would once again meet the Beasts in the East, Cleveland Cavilers. The Warriors won a record breaking twelve straight games through the first three round to reach the finals. This time their was no shortage of dominance against Cleveland. The Warriors went on to win the series in five games, thus winning their second championship in three years.\nJoe Lacob on the Warriors\nAs the majority owner of the Golden State Warriors, Joe Lacob is constantly asked about his success of the team and how they have gotten to where they are. On one occasion Lacob was quoted saying, \"were light years ahead of everybody.\" Although he did not speak further on the comment there are some pretty obvious things that show why. Such as the acquisition of Kevin Durant and the use of Herman Miller Aeron Chairs in the locker room. These chairs can easily be purchased at an affordable price at Beverly Hills Chairs. These chairs help foster healthy blood flow and prevent back pain from happening and resurfacing. If you want to feel as healthy as the NBA players do, check out some ergonomic chairs.\nTags: BHC Golden State Warriors",

Rita Hills, but also includes grapes from the Cumulus, Third Twin (Syrah) and Bien Nacido vineyards. Checking in at 15.7% alcohol, it's no lightweight, yet it has considerable elegance in its sweet blackcurrants, white pepper, licorice, baking spices and hints of violet-like aromas and flavors. Possessing the hallmark purity of the estate, it's full-bodied, concentrated, rich and textured, with sweet tannin barely noticeable on the finish. I don't think it's one of the greatest Grenaches from the estate, yet it's still an incredible effort that will benefit from short-term cellaring and have 15-20 years or more of overall longevity. There are few greater success stories in wine than that of Sine Qua Non\u2019s Manfred Krankl. Austrian-born and showing up penniless in Los Angeles in 1980, he went on to create one of the greatest wine estates in the world today by sheer talent and work ethic. Despite being involved in a horrific motorcycle accident in September of 2014, he\u2019s recovering admirably and was in great spirits during my visit. Looking at his latest releases, the 2011 extended-aged cuvees all show the cooler nature of the vintage, yet had phenomenal levels concentration and firm, tannic spines. I\u2019m not sure they\u2019re a step up over the earlier 2011 releases, but they\u2019re without a doubt some of the top wines in the vintage. The 2012s are big, ripe and voluptuous wines more in the style of 2009s, yet perhaps with slightly less exuberance. The real shocker was the quality of the Next Of Kyn releases. These come all from his estate vineyard located around the winery in Oak View. I was blown away by both the \u201911 and \u201912, with the \u201912 being the greatest wine yet from the estate.\nDesignation: Stein\n2016 Sine Qua Non Grenache Dirt Vernacular - Magnum\n2016 Sine Qua Non Syrah R\u00e4tsel 16 - Magnum\n2006 Sine Qua Non Grenache Raven\n2016 Sine Qua Non Syrah R\u00e4tsel 16\n2016 Hayes Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon",

The bill of a hedge sparrow is slender and more pointed than the sparrow. They range in size from 5 to 7 inches (13 to 18 centimeters), with a weight of 0.5 to 1.4 ounces (18 to 40 grams). The differences between the male and female are slight, though the male has longer wings, with ten functional primary feathers that can be rounded or pointed at the tip. The male is heavier than the female. The legs and feet of the bird are very strong. In general, the anatomy of the birds is strong and muscular, a feature that has been adapted due to their diet.\nIn color, a hedge sparrow tends to be brown-toned gray or a rusty brown. Males are slightly brighter than females, but are otherwise similar in appearance.\nHedge sparrows are known to be widely distributed throughout the Palearctic region that includes the area from western Europe to Japan, in Asia north of the Himalayan mountains, and in Africa, north of the Sahara desert.\nHedge sparrows tend to live in the thick undergrowth of shrubs, and in alpine meadows rather than in the trees themselves. Habitats can vary slightly among the species.\nThe robin accentor can be found at high altitudes in central Asia, and prefers to live in dwarf rhododendrons and other scrub, or among the willows of damp meadows.",

        "raw_content": "IssuesHome \u00bb Issues \u00bb GDPR\nThe EU\u2019s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will apply more-or-less uniformly across the EU from 25 May 2018. It requires an organisation storing or processing the \u201cpersonal data\u201d of EU citizens to put data privacy \u2013 Privacy by Design \u2013 at the heart of its data processing. Many observers think that GDPR will become a major cost of doing business in the future. Bloor thinks differently. We see it as an opportunity to add value for your company. It\u2019s an opportunity to leverage \u201cprivacy by design\u201d for building trust in the Mutable business.\nThe GDPR means that organisations must significantly change the way in which they protect and process personal data. It gives the subjects (\u201cowners\u201d) of personal data important new rights, including judicial remedies if these rights are infringed and mandatory reporting of data breaches. Organisations must introduce \u201cappropriate technical and organisational measures\u201d to protect personal data \u2013 that is, \u201cprivacy by design\u201d, with data privacy and security taken into consideration from the start. However, this can also bring bottom-line benefits from managing a \u201c360 degree\u201d view of sensitive data and encouraging data rationalisation.\nRemember too that GDPR applies to the personal data of EU citizens outside of the EU. Ovum claims that 63% of US organisations think that GDPR will make them less competitive, while 70% believe that it favours European businesses. These US organisations are probably overlooking the fact that the EU also genuinely takes the privacy of its citizens seriously.\nFigure 1 \u2013 Percentage of UK businesses, and charities that have made changes to their operations in response to GDPR\u2019s introduction.\nThe full text of the GDPR is here. When reading an Article, don\u2019t overlook the linked Recital, which the authorities will use to elucidate precise meanings. GDPR is based on 7 principles:\nLawfulness, fairness and transparency \u2013 personal data must be processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject.\nPurpose limitation \u2013 personal data must be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a way incompatible with those purposes. Further processing of personal data for archiving purposes in the public interest, or scientific and historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall not be considered incompatible with the original processing purposes. However, further conditions in relation to processing for such purposes must be met.\nData minimisation \u2013 personal data must be adequate, relevant and limited to those which are necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed.\nAccuracy \u2013 personal data must be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay.\nStorage limitation \u2013 personal data must be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed (with some exceptions).\nIntegrity and confidentiality \u2013 personal data must be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage.\nAccountability \u2013 the controller shall be responsible for and be able to demonstrate compliance with these principles. Being able to demonstrate that you have policies and processes (supported by tools) in place is the key to compliance and avoiding penalties.\nAny information related to a natural person or \u2018Data Subject\u2019, that can be used to directly or indirectly identify the person.

See the GDPR FAQ.\nFigure 2 \u2013 At the beginning of 2018 two EU Member States have already adopted the relevant national legislation, 26 Member States are at different stages in their legislative procedures and have schedules for adopting the legislation by 25 May 2018.\nSource: \u201cCommission guidance on the direct application of the General Data Protection Regulation as of 25 May 2018\u201d dated 24/1/18.\nGDPR took effect on the 26th May, 2018. It affects any company holding personal data of EU citizens or seeking to move such data in and out of the EU. The UK will introduce equivalent legislation to the GDPR (which will continue after Brexit). And the potential penalties and fines associated with GDPR are eye-watering: there is an upper limit of \u20ac20 million or 4% or annual global turnover \u2013 whichever is higher.\nMore important than this, is the reputation risk associated with GDPR \u2013 keeping data breaches to yourself will be illegal when GDPR comes in.\nRemember, too, that GDPR applies outside Europe, even in the US. It is not \u201cjust a barrier to US companies doing business in the EU\u201d, it represents a genuine cultural difference in the way the EU thinks of the privacy of its citizens. And, many other countries are introducing GDPR-like legislation.\n\u201cJust six per cent of UK businesses have prioritised GDPR, compared to 30 per cent in France and 25 per cent in Benelux.\u201d\nSophos, 15/06\n\u201cLess than two thirds (59 per cent) of UK businesses are aware of the implications GDPR will have on their organisation. Roughly three quarters (73 per cent) felt prepared to meet the obligations when it comes to documents and print management.\u201d\nKyocera, 29/06\n\u201cAmong US multinationals, 68% expect to spend between $1 million and $10 million, with another 9% expected to spend more than $10 million.\u201d\nFirstly, it isn\u2019t enough to have processes, policies or technology in place. The fundamental question the Regulator (or, indeed, an aggrieved data subject) will ask is whether your people understood the rules and were confident and competent in applying them.\nSecondly, once you understand GDPR, you will need, e.g., data cataloguing, security and privacy tools; and process automation, governance and policy management tools; in order to put your understanding into practice. Building a \u201c360 degree\u201d view of customers, consent management (perhaps using MDM), sensitive data discovery, and appropriate data masking, will all be part of the solution.\nThese let organisations demonstrate that they are well-governed and effective, compared to their competition. More importantly, however, they allow the fostering of better trust relationships with their customers and employees (who both now \u201cown\u201d, in some real sense, their own personal data).\nBusiness is built on trust and the modern Mutable business must base its business outcomes \u2013 profits \u2013 on leveraging its trust relationships.\nSeize GDPR as an opportunity to build \u201cPrivacy by Design\u201d into your processes, thus de-risking mutable change as it affects personal data. Leverage this for increased customer trust, customer loyalty and market-share.\nMore on non-European companies and GDPR\nAmerican companies and GDPR\nGDPR is this winter\u2019s game\nGDPR: marketing hype overdrive",

        "raw_content": "Boyle Plans First Office Building at Schilling Farms\nBy Terry Hollahan\nMemphis-based Boyle Investment Company is launching its first office building at Schilling Farms, a 62,000-square-foot office/flex facility that will be expandable to 86,000 square feet.\nThe one-story office complex, called Schilling Farms Business Center, will become a cornerstone in the $350 million, mixed-use Schilling Farms development in Collierville because of its central location and design.\nThe curved building will conform with a bend in Schilling Boulevard, a primary entrance into the 443-acre development. Upon entering Schilling Boulevard from Poplar, the front of the new business center immediately becomes visible from the intersection.\nCary Whitehead III, senior vice president of Boyle Investment, says the building is designed for traditional offices uses, but the facility is versatile enough to meet a wide range of office needs.\nThe building will accommodate tenants that need warehouse space or call center operations and provides enough parking for medical practices. The facility has 14-foot ceilings and will provide 336 parking spaces, well above the standard ratio of four spaces per 1,000 square feet of office space.\nThe building, being constructed on a 6.5-acre tract, is scheduled for completion in April, Whitehead says.\nThe architect for the project is The Crump Firm. Mid-America Construction is the general contractor. Whitehead says the growth of Collierville and the location of Federal Express Corp.\u2019s Worldwide and Technology headquarters nearby make Schilling Farms a prime location for office development.\n\u201cSchilling Farms Business Center is strategically located in the heart of Collierville and is convenient to Nonconnah Parkway,\u201d Whitehead says.\nBays can be built out in 3,500-square-foot increments, but the project also can accommodate a few smaller users. Each tenant will have their own front door and separate meter to control HVAC.\nThe Class A building will have a glass-and-brick exterior, extensive landscaping and conduit for fiber optics.\nWhitehead says there has been a lot of interest in the building and that Boyle is currently negotiating with three prospective tenants.\nPlanned for six years, development at Schilling Farms has taken off in the past year and is now home to a new middle school, KidTech day care center, apartment units and its first building, a $7 million state-of-the-art YMCA facility which is planning a $2 million expansion after a year in operation.\nThe development\u2019s master plan calls for 70 acres of distribution space, 80 acres of office space and 900 homes, plus retail shops, a hotel, medical facilities, banks, a church and parks.\n\u201cThis is one of the largest and most complex projects we\u2019ve undertaken,\u201d says Joel Fulmer, vice president at Boyle, a 67-year-old Memphis company.\nSchilling Farms, a joint venture with Schilling Farms Enterprises, was designed around a theme that retains natural attributes of Collierville, such as its agricultural heritage.\nThe development includes a trademark agricultural tower at each entrance that resembles an old pigeon nesting tower commonly seen years ago.\nWhitehead says the Schilling Farms concept also is pedestrian-oriented, with a common sidewalk theme throughout. The single- and multi-family residences under construction or planned are designed to be within walking distance of retail and other amenities Schilling Farms will offer.",

        "raw_content": "Ministry of Education discusses financial reform\nPatrick Faber (Minister of Education)\nAARON HUMES Reporting: This morning the Belize City press sat down with officials of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports including Minister Patrick Faber to review latest developments in education including proposals to revise and streamline fee schemes in high schools, school subsidies and grants and payment of examination fees for students taking the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) examination.\nAccording to Minister Faber, the Ministry must not only talk social justice, it must do social justice. The proposals outlined by the Ministry, he said, will move more Belizean even closer to an equitable and socially just society. For the first time, the socio-economic and academic needs of students in all schools will be accounted for, and the Ministry will appropriate, cooperatively, the tools of the Ministry of Human Development to determine objectively where the greatest need is.\nDavid Leacock\n(Chief Executive Officer, MOE)\nChief Executive Officer of the Ministry David Leacock provided an outline, stating that the Ministry wished to achieve justice in its provisions for all schools over a 7 year period.\nIn that time, schools found to be above-average in funding would have their funding reduced gradually, while those who are below would have theirs raised based on a formula that calculates school services, compensation for students with socio-economic and academic needs, and a performance bonus for schools who develop innovative program and reduce retention and dropout rates.\nThis would reduce the gap between urban and rural school and especially poor and non-poor students. In the case of school fees, which range far and wide, there is work ongoing that would result in lower, standardized fees beginning in this upcoming school year, 2014-15.\nBeginning this November, per Prime Minister Dean Barrow\u2019s New Year\u2019s Address, students taking a maximum of 6 CSEC subjects including English and Mathematics would have their costs paid, but the most vulnerable would be sought out.\nIn preparation for this and the CXC exercise, the Ministries of Education and Human Development are partnering to run a household survey exercise that would visit all schools and homes seeking economic and educational data. It is voluntary but there is a risk of missing out on the promised funds if the survey data sheet is not completed and signed by a parent or guardian.\nThe Ministry has set an estimated target of 1 and a half million dollars for the CXC program, but Minister Faber says he doesn\u2019t mind the extra spending on this and other programs including curriculum reform if it means students are better prepared and educated.\nThe Ministry\u2019s statistics say more students are enrolled in school and completing high school and dropout rates for boys are going lower, to match those of girls.",

        "raw_content": "BFLA defends activities from Church\nVenezuelan ambassador to Belize\nAARON HUMES Reporting: The ongoing political crisis in Venezuela has moved into a new phase where the incumbent Government of President Nicolas Maduro has asked for international dialogue, particularly with the United States.\nThis phase of the conflict was addressed today by the local Embassy of Venezuela, whose Ambassador, Yoel Perez Marcano, shared their appreciation for Belize and other Latin American countries\u2019s support of their plight.\nAmbassador Perez Marcano delivered a lengthy history of the problems leading to the current situation, dating back to the formation of the government of beloved leader Hugo Chavez in 1999.\nDespite his temporary overthrow in 2002, Chavez, a socialist, instituted reforms based on using petroleum wealth to improve people\u2019s lives.\nThis did not sit well with the elite of Venezuela, and with the help of the U.S. and others, says the Ambassador, revolutionaries like Leopoldo Lopez are attempting to overthrow the legally elected administration of his successor, Nicolas Maduro.\nBut the Ambassador says that the local Government has been able to contain the rebellion with a minimum of force and has opened a national dialogue on addressing the situation and wants the same with the U.S. But, he maintains, the Americans must respect Venezuela\u2019s sovereignty.\nWhile that is the official position, where the crisis most affects Belize is the continued relationship established under the Petrocaribe initiative \u2013 oil profits for national development.\nBelize\u2019s leaders have maintained they will not break the relationship and today Venezuelan ambassador Yoel Perez Marcano said they will not either, despite the best efforts of the opposition.\nAmbassador Marcano went on to state that the opposition is especially interested in controlling the petroleum for themselves and stopping the PetroCaribe agreement.\nHe drew a comparison with the selflessness of the program instituted under Hugo Chavez and ended by once again confirming that the program would continue as long as the current government remains in power.\nBelizean Guy says:\nWhy in the HELL are they asking support from the Fascist States of America? They are the ones who are DIRECTLY responsible for the unreset in Venezuela. The Venezuelean oligarchs, no doubt acting on Washington\u2019s orders, are consolidating their power by creating artificial scarcity so that the price of commodities will increase. This is exactly why Comrade Chavez should have seized the means of production during his democratic revolution and send the US backed Venezuelean oligarchs to the US where they belong.\nShame on Belize for being so quiet about such an important issue. Shame on us for continuing to elect FECKLESS, GREEDY, NON-THINKING, US BANKER WANNA-BE\u2019s in our government. WHERE THE HELL IS OUR CHAVEZ!? Point me in the direction of a Belizean Chavez and I\u2019ll show you the man I\u2019d follow into battle against those that would dare to say \u201cWe shouldn\u2019t be playing footsie with these socialist countries\u201d while half of our population is living in POVERTY!

As much as I would like to say the book is the entire case, that\u2019s not the case. That\u2019s how the Clinton team is going to represent it. But they have done and lot of legwork and this was always high priority for them.\u201d\nHe added, \u201cI think I established a pattern that requires investigation, which is what the FBI is doing.

        "title": "Fighting Against Cyber Security Risks",
        "raw_content": "Fighting Against Cyber Security Risks\nEnterprise Security / By Alex Jones / Network Security\nWe used to know how to prepare for the risk of crimes. Stick up CCTV cameras, install alarms and invest in good locks and you\u2019d be protecting your assets \u2013 at least as well as you could be. But now, cyber crime poses a digital danger that is more difficult to keep on top of. The bank robbers of today don\u2019t even necessarily need to set foot in the building to make off with eye-watering sums of money.\nIt\u2019s not always as easy or obvious as the old lock, alarm and camera but protection needs to be found. So how to fight back against the hackers? The important thing is to be aware of the risks and act as quickly as possible.\nMigrate Now\nIt\u2019s now more than a year since Microsoft officially withdrew its support for Windows XP. It may well be several releases off the pace for Microsoft but it\u2019s an operating system that is still fairly widely used \u2013 with 20 to 30% of organizations needing to make the transition from XP.\nIt\u2019s a vital switch to make since XP is now vulnerable when it comes to security. Microsoft\u2019s withdrawal for XP means there\u2019s no automatic technical support and, crucially, no updates and patches. This leaves the field open for hackers who will be able to operate without new fixes for viruses and malware being launched \u2013 and this sort of thing can be extremely costly from both a monetary and reputational perspective.\nMalware can pose a big risk for a business. Attackers don\u2019t need particularly special technical know-how to target POS machines, for example. It\u2019s not too tough for these people to repurpose Windows malware to suit their needs without having to worry about new fixes for viruses and malware being launched.\nIt can be a lucrative business for the hacker, too. Security breaches at Home Depot saw it report initial losses of $43 million in 2014 and high-end hotel chain Mandarin Oriental suffered from hackers harvesting the credit card data from the POS systems at some of its 45 hotels.\nIn the US, discount chain Target lost the details of an estimated 110 million customers after malware was deployed on its POS system.\nThe simplest way to stop being quite so open to hackers is to migrate to the latest operating system, with robust new technology backed up by regular patches and fixes.\nThat\u2019s something many businesses fear as they anticipate a lengthy process involving lots of downtime and, especially in the case of POS, that\u2019s downtime for machines on the front line that firms can ill-afford to be out of action. But there is a way to fight back against the security risk without costing too much time and money. The whole migration process can largely be done remotely and firms like 1E offer software that \u2018wakes up\u2019 machines at night to perform the updates at a more convenient time.\nGetting onto the latest operating system and keeping on top of updates and patches will give you the best possible defense to repel an attack.\nThe Internet of Things is set to become increasingly important as even household items such as kettles and fridges embrace smart technology and the race continues to driverless technology. As devices and items connect with each other without direct need for human involvement, hackers spot an opportunity to step in and exploit it.\nJamison Nesbitt, founder of Cyber Senate, fears this will be the biggest cyber security risk for 2015. He told CNBC: \"The IoT will be integrated into every market you can think of \u2013 from healthcare to the energy industry and transport network but it hasn't been designed with security in mind. There are millions of hackers out there who could compromise these interconnected systems. We have sacrificed security for efficiency.\"\nIt\u2019s easy to be fearful of this \u2013 if the security of the Internet of Things is compromised then the harm that could be done to us goes beyond the digital and stretches into physical danger \u2013 especially with the motoring example.\nStill, one positive here is that the security measures we build to protect against these problems can be developed arm-in-arm with the technology as it grows in the coming years.\nWilliam Bain, CEO of ScaleOut Software, explained to TechTarget that for businesses this will mean the need for good security strategies which will need to involve encrypting communications on things such as critical infrastructure, using secure network protocols and incorporating strong firewalls. All of that needs to be backed up by a designated team that keep on top of the challenges this poses and applies the same rigor as in other fields.\nMobile Security (needs pic)\nWe all do more and more on our mobile phones these days beyond simply making calls and sending messages and, increasingly, that means carrying out work tasks too. Technology has developed to be portable \u2013 and now wearable \u2013 helping fuel work \u2018on the go\u2019 and at home. It\u2019s also feeding into the \u2018bring your own device\u2019 trend \u2013 with top-of-the-range smartphones and tablets increasingly used by employees in the workplace as companies accommodate the technology-of-choice of their staff.\nAs we perform more and more tasks on our mobile phone the need for greater cyber security increases. It\u2019s an area that IT professionals are increasingly concerned about and for good reason. Because many people view their mobile phones differently to their computer they don\u2019t necessarily apply the same focus on security that they would to their PC.\nThere are plenty of people who say anti-virus is not necessary on a phone. While that is a matter of debate it\u2019s not the same as saying that security is not necessary. Most anti-virus available for phones comes with other functions that are especially vital \u2013 such as back-up features and remote wiping.\nThe latter is particularly important, as Jan Gahura, director of non-Windows products at Avast, explained to digitaltrends.com: \u201cTo have a smartphone in your pocket without a remote wipe possibility is a dangerous thing. It\u2019s even more dangerous than losing keys to your house. Of course someone can steal your private data using a fraudulent application, but that\u2019s certainly the harder way.\u201d\nDerek Halliday, of Lookout, agreed, adding: \u201cMobile phones have become our wallet, contact list, communications, and more. You wouldn\u2019t leave your bank account open to everyone, so why take the same chances with your phone when it contains so much information?\u201d\nExperts also suggest connecting to open insecure wi-fi is a danger \u2013 as is downloading apps from anywhere other than a reputable source such as Google Play or the App Store. It\u2019s clear that the fight against hackers means treating security as seriously on a phone or tablet as you would a PC or laptop and that begins by the smart use of security apps \u2013 with remote wiping a must \u2013 and avoiding taking security risks.\nEverything we do online requires a password and it\u2019s easy to be drawn into making them all the same. The problem with this is that what we gain through convenience we lose in security. In this scenario, if just one hacker can learn \u2013 or even buy \u2013 that one word then all manner of things could be at risk, not least all of your hard-earned money. There really is no alternative to creating good strong passwords and regularly changing them.\nConsider using a password manager to help with this. These can help to remember a whole host of different passwords for different situations as well as protecting you from the sort of software that can remember your keystrokes to help uncover your passwords.\nThis also prevents the need to write your passwords down. You wouldn\u2019t leave your keys lying around for anyone to swipe and this is the cyber equivalent.\nConsider two-step authentication, too; it might seem a hassle but if someone needs both a password coupled with a separate device to gain access to your account this will make life doubly difficult, the equivalent of installing a double lock on your system.\nAs with many of these examples it\u2019s all about applying the theory behind the practical steps we take to stay safe in the physical world and translating these into things we can do in the digital world.\nSo much of what we do digitally is now stored on a cloud. This is something that avoids the need for big and expensive equipment and makes flexible working much easier. But it brings its own cyber security risks too \u2013 placing our valuable data in one place that criminals find tantalizingly tempting to target.\nIt\u2019s important to follow the sort of password procedure that we\u2019ve already explored when accessing the cloud and encryption is vital here, too. Don\u2019t allow your sensitive files to float around in cyberspace waiting to be discovered \u2013 get them under lock and key. An opportunist burglar will walk along a street and wait until they encounter a house with unlocked doors and windows to make their life easier and the cyber criminal has the same mindset. Why waste time and effort overcoming your complex system if someone else has left themselves wide open to attack?\nGet your house in order and you\u2019ll stand a much better chance of becoming a target. When it comes to cloud \u2013 and all other IT systems \u2013 it\u2019s also important to regularly audit the devices that connect to this. Keep a close eye out for any potential weak links and pounce on them before they cost you dearly.\nThe world\u2019s biggest risks online for businesses essentially come down to two categories \u2013 the hacker who wants to gain access to your important data and the person who wants to disrupt your operations through a \u2018distributed denial of service\u2019 (DDOS) attack. These, essentially, boil down to your IP address being swamped by fake traffic to the extent that it cannot be accessed. These are notoriously difficult to fight back against and any common methods of defense have largely been overtaken by \u2018bigger and badder\u2019 DDOS threats.\nThe only thing you can really do is try to spot an attack early \u2013 they often begin looking like big spikes in traffic \u2013 buy yourself extra time by having spare bandwidth capacity and call your ISP at the earliest opportunity to get help.\nDon\u2019t be afraid of calling for help. Whether it\u2019s on or off line we all encounter problems that are beyond our capabilities \u2013 in these instances we fight back with help and by highlighting an issue at the earliest possible opportunity.\nThe clearest lesson to learn about cyber security is that this is an ever-evolving battle to keep out attackers. In truth we always needed to get new locks, alarms and cameras as thieves worked out ways of getting around these and, in the same way, we need to be on top of the very latest anti-virus products, software patches and malware-avoiding methods. By being quick on your feet, rigorous and having strong back-up systems in place it\u2019s possible to fight back and operate as safely as possible.\nAbout the Author: Alex Jones is a freelance culture and technology writer who is passionate about gadgets and the world around him.

        "title": "On the Performance of the U.S. Transportation System: Caution Ahead",
        "raw_content": "On the Performance of the U.S. Transportation System: Caution Ahead\nClifford Winston Thursday, September 26, 2013\nPDF File On the Performance of the U.S. Transportation System: Caution Ahead\nTransportation is a vital sector of the U.S. economy based on consumers\u2019, firms\u2019, and government\u2019s enormous expenditures in money and time and on its effect on virtually all other sectors in the economy. I assess the performance of the transportation system and consider how it could be improved by analyzing whether the United States has the optimal mix of public and private provision. The empirical evidence indicates that our hugely important transportation system has been compromised by various government policies and the significant welfare costs motivate either vastly improving public provision or expanding the role of the private sector.\nTransportation is a friction\u2014a cost in both money and time\u2014that must be incurred by individuals and firms to complete almost any market transaction. An efficient and extensive transportation system greatly enriches the standard of living in modern society by reducing the cost of nearly everything in the economy; expanding individuals\u2019 access to and choices of employers and employers\u2019 choices of workers; enabling firms and urban residents to benefit from the spatial concentration of economic activities, referred to as agglomeration economies; reducing trade costs and allowing firms to realize efficiency gains from specialization, comparative advantage, and increasing returns; and limiting firms\u2019 ability to obtain market power by locating in geographically isolated markets with no competition. By increasing frictions, however, an inefficient transportation system, just like poorly functioning financial institutions (Hall 2010), can cause all sorts of economic activity to collapse.\nTransportation is also important because it can be thought of as a merit good\u2014that is, societies generally believe that citizens are entitled to accessible transportation to experience a decent quality of life no matter where they live, even if the cost of their service must be subsidized. To this end, both the public and private sector have provided and managed transportation throughout U.S. history and government policy has redistributed transportation resources across households with different incomes, between residents of urban and rural areas, across residents of different states, and between users of a specific service and general taxpayers.\nAmericans\u2019 annual expenditures in both money and time on transportation are enormous. As reported in 2007 dollars by Winston (2010), consumers spent $1.1 trillion on gasoline and vehicles commuting to work, traveling to perform household chores and to access entertainment, and traveling for business and vacations, and spent an astronomical 175 billion hours in transit, which averages out to about 100 minutes per day for each and every American, valued at some $760 billion. Firms spent $1 trillion shipping products using their own and for-hire transportation, while the commodities that were shipped absorbed 25 billion ton-days in transit, valued at roughly $2.2 trillion.1 Local, state, and federal government spending on transportation infrastructure and services contributed an additional $260 billion, bringing total pecuniary spending on transportation up to 2.4 trillion, or 17 percent of GDP in 2007, which is as much as Americans spent on health care, and total annual money and time expenditures to more than $5 trillion! Finally, transportation looms large in American life because both the public and private sector have made huge investments in the transportation capital stock, which (after deducting depreciation) is valued by the U.S. Department of Commerce at nearly $4 trillion (2009 dollars).\nThe fact that this sector is so large and simultaneously so intertwined with virtually all other sectors in the economy suggests it is vital to assess the performance of the transportation system and to consider how it could be improved. At first blush, this appears to be a daunting task given the system\u2019s size and complexity. However, because the government is so heavily involved in the system\u2019s performance through its management of public infrastructure and services, regulation of private sector competition and externalities, and subsidies for travelers and private carriers, my view is that a constructive assessment can by performed in this paper by analyzing whether the United States has the optimal mix of public and private provision of transportation. And while I focus on the U.S. transportation system, my discussion is relevant to all transportation systems that must consider this issue.\nThe Current and Future State of the Sharing Economy\nNiam Yaraghi and Shamika Ravi\nWill more infrastructure spending increase US growth?\nIn what follows, I outline the theory of efficient provision of transportation, describe how public\u2013private provision in the United States has evolved historically, and summarize the salient features of the current system. I then survey the empirical literature on the public sector\u2019s performance, which indicates that our hugely important transportation system has been compromised by policies that have resulted in inefficient pricing, suboptimal investments, and inflated production costs that are manifested in congestion, delays, budget deficits, and excessive money and time costs to users and excessive government expenditures on transportation.\nThe hundreds of billions of dollars in welfare costs motivate either improving public provision or expanding the role of the private sector. I point out that political forces and limitations of transportation agencies strongly contribute to inefficient policies and, in my view, constrain efficient improvements in public provision. Thus, for example, policymakers have called for a significant increase in spending on the nation\u2019s transportation infrastructure, but they have not considered how inefficient pricing policies have prevented travelers and shippers from making efficient use of existing infrastructure and how mispricing has distorted signals for investments in new capacity.\nAn alternative policy\u2014privatization and deregulation\u2014calls for fundamental institutional change to rid the system of its shortcomings that are attributable to current government policies and to rely on market competition to allocate transportation resources efficiently. Theoretical arguments and empirical evidence based on international experiences and simulations of the effects of privatizing certain parts of the U.S. system provide some support for this approach but they do not resolve all of the important uncertainties about its effects in practice. I therefore call for modest, localized experiments that would give economists and other analysts the opportunity to develop crucial empirical evidence based on actual U.S. experiences to help guide policymakers\u2019 decisions on what parts of the transportation system, if any, should be privatized and deregulated to improve its performance.",

        "raw_content": "Hilary BrueckDec 6, 2018, 12.18 AM\nA man in Washington state just became the first US patient to start a trial of a male birth-control gel.\nThe gel is a once-a-day treatment that men rub into their shoulders, and it reduces sperm count.\nRoughly 420 other couples in seven countries are also set to try the gel in the coming months.\nShower, shave, and apply your male birth-control rub.\nDaily personal-care routines are changing for at least two US couples this week, as a worldwide trial of male birth control gel kicks off on the West Coast.\nThe couples are the first two of about 420 around the world who will eventually participate in a groundbreaking study of a form of male birth control that gets rubbed into a man's shoulders once a day.\nThe gel works by inhibiting a man's natural testosterone production. Using a combination of progestin (Nestorone) and testosterone, the treatment interrupts the normal hormone production processes in the testicles, thereby preventing men from producing viable, mature sperm.\n\"That's why it works, because sperms require all that testosterone inside the testicle,\" Dr. Stephanie Page, a professor of medicine at the University of Washington who's leading the trial, previously told Business Insider.\nThe gel, which takes about eight to 12 weeks to become fully effective, is administered in a single pump on each shoulder. Study leaders suggest that men apply it after they shower, then wait to swim or bathe again for at least four hours (even though the goo dries in about five minutes).\nAfter they rub the birth control on, men are instructed to wash their hands. They're also advised to wear a shirt if they're going to be getting cozy with women or children, since the gel contains male sex hormones.\n\"If they are preparing for intercourse or close contact ... they need to be wearing clothes. Or they need to shower,\" Dr. Christina Wang, the project's principal investigator said.\nThe quest to develop a reversible form of male birth control that's not condoms\nThe first couple participating in the year-long trial began on Tuesday in Washington state. A second couple is set to receive their first gel pump on Friday at LA BioMed, the research center where Wang works. A third man in the US has been pre-screened at the University of Kansas and is set to start his trial soon as well.\nCouples are also being recruited at sites in Chile, England, Scotland, Kenya, Sweden and Italy. The study is set to run until at least fall 2021, with each couple using the gel birth control for a full year.\nThere are many reasons - biological, political, and financial - why commercial male birth control hasn't gotten off the ground yet. For one, pharmaceutical companies have focused on developing birth control for women because it's easier, biologically speaking, to block one or two eggs per month than it is to stop millions of sperm from coming out of men's bodies.\nBut some women can't take birth control pills, and some men want their own reliable way to prevent pregnancies (condoms are only about 85% effective) that doesn't require an irreversible and expensive vasectomy.\n\"The goal of the whole field of male contraceptive development is to try and create choices for men and for families,\" Page, who's been working on male birth-control solutions for roughly a decade, previously told Business Insider. \"A lot of women can't use contraceptives, and men want to share the burden of contraception.\"\nRead More: A new form of male birth control is being tested around the world - and men only have to rub it on their shoulders once a day\nThat's true of at least one couple starting the trial this week. Wang said they came to her California clinic because female birth control wasn't a good option for them. Page also said she personally answered messages from at least 20 interested couples in the Seattle area after news broke last week that the trial was kicking off with funding from the National Institutes of Health.\nThe male gel keeps other tissues in the body functioning at normal testosterone loads, so it won't chemically castrate the men, which has been a concern in the past with some male birth control pill trials.\nThe researchers have already completed a six-month trial of the gel, and found that more than nine out of 10 men saw their sperm levels suppressed \"to levels compatible with effective contraception,\" Page said.\nBut so far, the new gel has yet to pique the interest of a pharmaceutical company that wants to take male birth control to market.\nMale birth control might come with fewer side effects than the female version\nSome women are already lamenting on social media about how simple and side-effect-free the new men's gel sounds.\n\"I've had no shortage of painfully inserted IUDs dislodge and stab my uterus,\" Dr. Kehaulani Watson wrote on Twitter, \"but yes, let's invent a birth control GEL for men. #maleprivilege\"\nCourtesy of Dr. Stephanie Page/University of Washington\nResearchers say they hope the gel will have fewer side effects than female birth-control pills, which have been on the market for nearly 60 years yet can still heighten a woman's risk of developing breast and cervical cancer, increase her risk of depression, and cause her blood pressure to rise.\n\"We hope to be better,\" Wang said. \"Or, at least, not worse!\"\nPrevious tests of male birth control have come back with mixed reviews. The World Health Organization recently ended a trial of a male birth control injection early, after participants complained about acne and mood swings (both of which are common side effects for women who take the pill).\nWhen researchers conducted the first large-scale trial of female birth control in Puerto Rico in 1956, they didn't seem to have such concerns about potential side effects (which at the time included nausea, dizziness, headaches, and blood clots). Part of the reason that birth control went to market just four years later is the fact that for women, \"pregnancy is still a life-threatening condition,\" Page said.\nCouples have to clear a high bar to participate in the gel study\nBecause the gel study lasts for over a year, participating couples are required to have been in a stable, committed, monogamous partnership for at least a year before they start the trial. Men can range in age from 18 to 50, as long as they have no skin conditions, while the women must all be under 35 with regular, monthly periods.\nThe study asks male participants to keep a daily log of when they rub their gel on and come into the clinic for a monthly check up. Men can also choose to get a daily reminder text message, if they want it. That could be critical to the study's success, given that one of the most common reasons female birth control fails is because it's hard to remember to take a pill once a day.\n\"Clearly, if you don't apply the gel, like you don't take an oral contraceptive pill, you will fail. \" Wang said.\nThe couples also have to keep track of when the woman has her period and mark on a calendar every time they have sex. Additionally, all participating men and women will complete surveys every few months to track whether their views on contraception shift, Wang said.\nDespite the study's stringent preconditions, the hassle of putting on a shirt or showering before sex, and the awkward coital tracking, couples in the study get a few perks. The birth-control gel is given to them for free, and they're paid for their participation.\nIf this worldwide trial winds up being a success, the study results would then need to be replicated among several thousand people before the Food and Drug Administration would allow male birth control to be sold on pharmacy shelves.\nNOW WATCH: A gynecologist reveals the most effective birth control\nNext Story15 ways to be more productive and manage your time better, according to career experts\nTrump says he is a 'Tariff Man' during raging tweetstorm on China trade war negotiations\n'This is a disgrace': Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slams her future colleagues in Congress for employing unpaid interns and failing to pay staffers a 'living wage'\n8We drove a $36,000 Honda Civic Type R to see if the fastest and most powerful Honda ever sold in the US lives up to the hype.

McMaster, who had been on the conference call earlier, had already left the room, the newspaper reports.\nOne military official in July also appeared to suggest the US was planning military options related to North Korea, but downplayed its significance.\n\u201cThere is always a military option. That\u2019s why you pay $600 billion a year,\u201d US Special Operations Command commander Raymond Thomas said in an interview with the Aspen Institute. \u201cIt is an ugly, ugly option, but you cannot play elements of power, and then discount that there is no military option.\u201d\n\u201cWould you expect your military to be prepared for the contingencies that might come if somebody blinks,\u201d Thomas continued, \u201cI think your answer is yes.\u201d\nNational security advisor H.R. McMaster speaks to the media about President Trump\u2019s meeting with Russian diplomats in the Oval Office last week, on May 15, 2017 in Washington, DC.\nThough officials said that McMaster favored diplomacy with the regime and acknowledged that a military strike against North Korea would endanger South Koreans, he is believed to be skeptical of the North\u2019s recent overtures indicating its openness to dialogue.\nHe has also echoed some of Trump\u2019s rhetoric criticizing previous approaches to North Korea. According to officials cited by The Times, McMaster believes military preparedness is essential.\nNews of the policy wrangling comes amid the White House\u2019s continued search for an ambassador to South Korea.\nVictor Cha, who directed Asian affairs for the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration, was widely expected to be confirmed, but instead had his nomination pulled after expressing concerns about speculation that the US was floating the possibility of a limited strike on North Korea, according to multiple news reports.\nCha\u2019s dismissal prompted speculation over whether the White House was indeed serious about a military strike, and has fueled concerns over the prospect of a military conflict.",

        "raw_content": "Patriot Act Surveillance Powers Reclaimed As Obama Signs Bill Into Law\nObama's signature marked a victory for critics of the national security state, even as some lawmakers call for a more comprehensive overhaul of surveillance powers.\nPresident Obama signed the USA Freedom Act into law on Tuesday, ending the NSA's authority to sweep up the phone records of millions of Americans and reining in domestic surveillance programs provoked by the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11.\nThe signing of the bill followed a Senate debate so contentious that portions of the Patriot Act expired after lawmakers failed to resolve their differences by a Monday deadline. Under the new law, federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies will regain some of their surveillance powers -- but they'll be tempered by some important privacy protections.\nPresident Obama's signature marked a victory for critics of the national security state, even as some lawmakers call for a more comprehensive overhaul of surveillance powers enacted after 9/11.\nPresident Obama @POTUS\nGlad the Senate finally passed the USA Freedom Act. It protects civil liberties and our national security. I'll sign it as soon as I get it.\nIn a bipartisan joint statement released Tuesday by House leaders, representatives emphasized the wide support enjoyed by USA Freedom, with backers including the president, the attorney general, and members of the intelligence community and tech industry. \"The Senate should have acted before three national security provisions expired, but we are pleased that this historic piece of legislation is now on its way to becoming the law of the land,\" wrote Reps. Bob Goodlatte, John Conyers, Jim Sensenbrenner, and Jerrold Nadler.\nBefore the legislation was approved by the Senate, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell sought to pass three amendments to the bill. McConnell had previously vied for a straight reauthorization of the Patriot Act. He has argued that USA Freedom would hamstring the nation's law enforcement and would jeopardize national security by curtailing counterterrorism authority. All three amendments, which critics argued would weaken the surveillance and transparency reforms contained in the bill, were voted down.\nAdam Schiff, ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee and co-sponsor of the USA Freedom Act, praised the bill's passage as a worthwhile compromise.\nWhile president and CEO of the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) Nuala O'Connor described the bill's passage as a \"generational win for privacy and transparency,\" the CDT's advocacy director, Harley Geiger, expressed reservations. \"Passage of the USA FREEDOM Act is the most significant national security surveillance reform measure in the past three decades,\" he said in a statement. But Geiger went on to argue for congressional action to protect Americans' emails from warrantless searches, and for an overhaul of what's known as Sec. 702, which authorizes the surveillance of international calls.\nRepresentative Ted Lieu, one of the 88 House members who opposed USA Freedom, echoed these concerns and said he worries that the bill doesn't adequately address issues around encryption backdoors and stingray devices. Lieu told BuzzFeed News that while he is relieved the Senate did not weaken the legislation, he believes the bill is too modest in limiting the mass surveillance conducted by the NSA and the FBI.\n\"I am pleased that we are seeing a ratcheting back of the pendulum which I think has swung way too far to the area of fear and invasion of privacy and violations of the Constitution,\" he said. \"I still don't think the Freedom Act has gone far enough, but it is better than the existing Patriot Act.\"\nFor some American tech companies, the government's dragnet surveillance programs have become closely associated with their own businesses, which they claim harms their global competitiveness. Ed Black, the president and CEO of the Computer and Communications Industry Association, a group that represents Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and many other tech giants, sees the vote as a significant first step.\n\"While it is inherently tempting for governments to want to use technology to gather all information possible, those who wish to live in a free society must not allow that to become the default policy,\" Black said on the CCIA's website.",

        "raw_content": "Saint Faustina:\n\u201cDivine Mercy in my Soul!\u201d\nSaint Faustina, apostle of the Divine Mercy is one of the most loved saints of our modern times.\nPersonally I know many people who have a deep devotion to the Divine Mercy of God, due to the braveness of this Saint. This heroic woman had a life full of suffering, but managed to convince the world that they can trust God's Divine Mercy totally!\nShe is born in Polen on August 25th, 1905. Her parents, Stanislaus and Mariana Kowalska, were poor and religious people. They gave her the name Helenka.\nThe Call For A Religious Life\nSince she was 7 years old she heard the call for a religious life in her soul. She wanted to enter a convent after finishing school, but her parents did not give her permission.\nWhen she grew older, she again asked her parents for permission to lead a religious life, but they denied her again. Thus she tried to silence this call inside her.\nWhen she was 20 years old she had a vision of Jesus asking her: \u201cUntil when will you make me suffer? Until when will you betray me?\u201d She then rushed away to a church and saw Jesus again, who told her to leave immediately and join a convent in Warsaw.\nFinally, on August 1st, 1925 she was accepted in the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy. She received the name of Sister Maria Faustina.\nSecretary Of Divine Mercy\nJesus began to talk to her more frequently. One day He asked her to be His secretary of Divine Mercy.\nShe had to give testimony to the whole world about His Mercy! And that Mankind would not find peace until it has put it's trust in His Divine Mercy.\nHer confessor, Father Michael Sopocko, advised Faustina to begin writing down the conversations and messages from Jesus which she was reporting to him. She began keeping a diary, which she called \u201cDivine Mercy in my Soul'.\nOn September 13th 1935, she wrote of a vision she had about the \" Chaplet of Divine Mercy.\"\nThe purpose for the Chaplet's prayers was threefold: to obtain Mercy, to trust in Christ's Mercyand to show Mercy to others.\nJesus also taught Saint Faustina the \"Divine Mercy Novena\", which can be prayed at any time, but Jesus asked for this novena to begin on Good Friday.\nYears Of Suffering,\nAll For The Sinners\nIn 1936 she became ill and was diagnosed with tuberculosis. She was sent to a sanatorium in Pradnik, where she spent much time in prayer for the conversion of sinners, reciting the Chaplet of Divine Mercy that Jesus taught her.\nShe died in 1938 and her body now rests at the Basilica of Divine Mercy in Krakow, Poland. After her death her writings were sent to the Vatican. Everything that Jesus asked her to write down about His Infinite Mercy is written in the Diary of Saint Faustina, a must read book for all who long for the God's Mercy.\nSaint Faustina has been included in the list of the most outstanding mystics of the Church. Her Feast Day is October 5th and she is the Patron Saint of the World Youth Day.\nGo back from Saint Faustina to Female Saints",

        "title": "Cardinal Zen's Meditations for Via Crucis - Featured Today - Catholic Online",
        "raw_content": "Text Prepared for Good Friday Event at Colosseum\nVATICAN CITY, MARCH 22, 2008 (Zenit) - Here is a Vatican translation of the meditations Cardinal Joseph Zen, bishop of Hong Kong, prepared for Good Friday's Stations of the Cross at the Roman Colosseum. Benedict XVI will preside over the event.\nOFFICE FOR THE LITURGICAL CELEBRATIONS\nAT THE COLOSSEUM\nLed by His Holiness\nBY HIS EMINENCE\nCARDINAL JOSEPH ZEN ZE-KIUN, S.D.B.\nBishop of Hong Kong\nWhen I received the invitation from His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, conveyed through His Eminence Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, asking me to prepare the meditations for this year's Via Crucis on Good Friday at the Colosseum, I did not have the slightest hesitation in accepting the task. I recognized that this was the Holy Father's way of demonstrating his personal concern for the great Continent of Asia, and in particular, his way of including in this solemn act of Christian piety the faithful people of China, for whom the Via Crucis is a deeply felt devotion. The Pope wanted me to bring the voice of these distant sisters and brothers to the Colosseum.\nClearly the central figure in this Via Dolorosa is Our Lord Jesus Christ, as he is presented to us by the Gospels and the Church's tradition. Yet behind him there are many people from the past and the present, including ourselves. In our prayer this evening let us be mindful of the presence of so many brothers and sisters from times past. They, probably more than ourselves, experienced in their bodies the Passion of Jesus. In their flesh, Jesus was newly arrested, maligned, tortured, derided, dragged and crushed under the weight of the Cross, and nailed to that wood like a criminal.\nObviously, we are not alone at the Colosseum this evening. Present in the Holy Father's heart and in our own hearts are all the \"living martyrs\" of the twenty-first century. \"Te martyum candidatus laudat exercitus\".\nWhen we think of persecution, let us also remember the persecutors. As I was drafting the text of these meditations, it frightened me to realize how unchristian I am. I had to make a great effort to purify myself of uncharitable sentiments towards those who caused Jesus to suffer and those who are causing our brothers and sisters to suffer in the world today. Only when I confronted my sins and my own lack of faithfulness, did I succeed in seeing myself among the persecutors, and then I was moved to repentance and gratitude for the forgiveness of our merciful Master.\nSo let us now begin our meditation, let us sing and pray to Jesus and with Jesus for those who suffer on account of his name, for those who cause him and his brothers and sisters to suffer, and for ourselves, who are sinners and at times also his persecutors.\nThe Holy Father:\nJesus our Saviour, we are gathered here on this day, at this hour and in this place, remembering your many servants who were torn to pieces and killed here, centuries ago, amid the roars of the hungry lions and the cries of the spectators, for their faithfulness to your name. Today we come here to express to you the gratitude of your Church for the gift of salvation won by your Passion.\nColosseums have multiplied down the centuries, wherever our brothers and sisters, in different parts of the world, continue to be harshly persecuted today, prolonging your Passion. Together with you and our persecuted brothers and sisters around the world, we begin this journey along the Via Dolorosa with deep emotion, the journey that you once travelled with such great love.\nJesus in agony in the Garden of Olives\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (14:32-36)\nAnd they went to a place which was called Gethsemane; and Jesus said to his disciples, \"Sit here, while I pray.\" And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. And he said to them, \"My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch.\" And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. And he said, \"Abba, Father, to you all things are possible; remove this cup from me; yet not what I will, but what you will.\"\nJesus experienced fear, anguish and sorrow, even to death. He took with him three companions, but soon they fell asleep, and he began to pray alone: \"May this hour pass from me, take away this chalice from me ... Yet, Father, may your will be done.\"\nHe had come into the world in order to do the Father's will, but never before had he tasted the full depth of the bitterness of sin, or felt so helpless.\nIn his Letter to the Catholics in China, Benedict XVI recalled the vision in the Apocalypse of Saint John where the apostle weeps before the sealed book of human history, the \"mysterium iniquitatis\". Only the Lamb that was slain is capable of removing the seal.\nIn many parts of the world, the Bride of Christ is undergoing the dark hour of persecution, as Esther once did, when threatened by Haman, as did the \"Woman\" of the Apocalypse, when threatened by the dragon. Let us be watchful, and let us accompany the Bride of Christ in our prayer.\nJesus, Almighty God, you chose to become weakness because of our sins, you recognize the cries of the persecuted, which are the echo of your agony. They ask: Why this oppression? Why this humiliation? Why this prolonged servitude?\nThe words of the Psalm come to mind: \"Awake, Lord, why do you sleep? Awake! Do not cast us off for ever! Why do you hide your face, why do you forget our affliction and oppression? For we lie prostrate in the dust, our body cleaves to the ground. Rise up, come to our help!\" (Psalm 43:24-26).\nNo, Lord! You did not have recourse to this Psalm in Gethsemane, but you said: \"Your will be done!\" You could have summoned twelve legions of angels, but you did not.\nLord, suffering makes us afraid. We are tempted once again to grasp at easy means of success. Help us not to be afraid of fear, help us to trust in you.\nfiat voluntas tua, sicut in c\u0107lo, et in terra.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (14:43a, 45-46, 50-52)\nLet us not be scandalized! Defections are never lacking at times of persecution. And afterwards, people have often returned to the fold. In that young man who cast away the linen cloth and ran away naked (cf. Mk 14:51-52), authoritative interpreters have seen the future evangelist Mark.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (14:55, 61b-62a, 64b)\nNow the chief priests and the whole council sought testimony against Jesus to put him to death; but they found none. The high priest asked him, \"Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?\" And Jesus said, \"I am!\" And they all condemned him as deserving death.\nSaint John says that ultimately the high priest had spoken in God's name: only by allowing his innocent Son to be condemned could God the Father save the guilty brothers of Jesus.\nWe were your enemies, there was no way for us to change our condition. You let yourself be condemned in order to grant us forgiveness. Saviour, help us to avoid bringing condemnation upon ourselves on the last day.\n\"Iudex ergo cum sedebit,\nquicquid latet apparebit;\nante diem rationis.\"\nJesus is denied by Peter\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (14:66-68, 72)\nAnd as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the maids of the high priest came; and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him, and said, \"You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus.\" But he denied it, saying, \"I neither know nor understand what you mean.\" And immediately the cock crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, \"Before the cock crows twice, you will deny me three times.\" And he broke down and wept.\n\"Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you\" (Mk 14:31). Peter was sincere when he said this, but he did not know himself, he did not know his own weakness. He was generous, but he had forgotten that he needed the generosity of the Master. He claimed he would die for Jesus, but it was Jesus who was to die for him, to save him.\nDirect your gaze upon all of us, as you did that night upon Peter, after the cock crowed.\nQuem maerebat et dolebat\nAnd Pilate again said to them, \"Then what shall I do with the man whom you call the King of the Jews?\" And they cried out, \"Crucify him.\" And Pilate said to them, \"Why, what evil has he done?\" But they shouted all the more, \"Crucify him.\" So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas; and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (15:15b, 17-19)\nPilate, having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified. Then the soldiers clothed him in a purple cloak, and plaiting a crown of thorns they put it on him. And they began to salute him, \"Hail, King of the Jews!\" And they struck his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and they knelt down in homage to him.\nThe Cross is placed upon Jesus's shoulders\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (15:20)\nThere are courageous atheists who are ready to sacrifice themselves for the revolution: they are prepared to embrace the cross, but without Jesus. Among Christians there are de facto \"atheists\" who want Jesus, but without the Cross. Now without Jesus, the cross is unbearable, and without the Cross, no one can claim to be with Jesus.\nLet us embrace the Cross and let us embrace Jesus, and with Jesus let us embrace all our suffering and persecuted brethren!\nThe great Saints understood the saving value of the Cross so deeply that they could cry out: \"Either suffer or die!\" Give us the grace at least to accept your invitation to carry our cross behind you. You prepared a personal cross for each one of us. We have before our eyes the image of Pope John Paul II, who climbed the \"Mount of Crosses\" in Lithuania. Every one of those crosses had a story to tell, a story of suffering and joy, of humiliation and triumph, of death and resurrection.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (23:27-28)\nAnd there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him. But Jesus turning to them said, \"Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.\"\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark (15:25, 31, 34)\nAnd it was the third hour, when they crucified Jesus. The chief priests mocked him to one another with the scribes, saying, \"He saved others, he cannot save himself\". And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, \"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?\"\nIn him were fulfilled the prophecies of the Suffering Servant: \"He had no form or comeliness ... no beauty ... we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God ... all we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is dumb\" (Is 53:2, 4, 6-7).\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (23:33, 42-43)\nAnd when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified Jesus, and the criminals, one on the right and one on the left. One of the criminals said, \"Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.\" And he said to him, \"Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.\"\nHe was an evil-doer. He represents all evil-doers, that is to say, all of us. He had the good fortune to be close to Jesus in suffering, but all of us have this good fortune. Like him, let us say: \"Lord, remember us, when you come into your kingdom.\" We will receive the same reply.\n\"Jesus, remember us\": let us speak these words to him for ourselves, for our friends, for our enemies, and for the persecutors of our friends. The salvation of all people is the Lord's true victory.\nJesus, remember me when everyone is weary of me and no one trusts me any more, and I find myself alone and abandoned.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to John (19:25-27)\nStanding by the Cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, \"Woman, behold your son!\" Then he said to the disciple, \"Behold your mother!\" And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.\nJesus is not thinking of himself even in that moment of supreme suffering: he thinks of his Mother and he thinks of us. Does he first of all entrust his Mother to the disciple, as Saint John seems to suggest, or does he rather entrust the disciple to his Mother?\nAccept the homage of faithfulness from all those who have followed the example of Saint John, who remained courageously at the foot of the Cross.\nA reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (23:46)\nJesus, crying with a loud voice, said, \"Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!\" And having said this, he breathed his last.\nJesus, you assumed human life so that you could give it away. In taking on our sinful human flesh, you, immortal King, became mortal. In accepting the most tragic and dark death, the ultimate fruit of sin, you accomplished the supreme act of complete trust in the Father. \"In manus tuas, Domine, commendo spiritum meum.\"\nLet us think of Mary's sorrow, as she embraces the body of Jesus, now reduced to a heap of wounds, more a worm than a man, no longer capable of returning his Mother's loving gaze. Now she must consign him to the cold stones of the tomb, after hastily washing him and laying him out. It only remains now to wait. How interminable that wait seems, until the third day.\nHelp us always to be mindful of your words, Lord: \"Do not be afraid! I have overcome the world. I shall never fail you. I am with you always, until the end of the world.\"\nfac ut animae donetur\nThe Holy Father speaks to those present.\nAt the close of his address, the Holy Father imparts his Apostolic Blessing.\nV. Sit nomen Domini benedictum.\nR. Ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.\nV. Adiutorium nostrum in nomine Domini.\nV. Benedicat vos omnipotens Deus, Pater, et\uf020Filius, et Spiritus Sanctus.\nZen, Stations, Cross, Via Crucis",

Since God is eternal, what \u201cbeginning\u201d can the text be discussing? Certainly not God\u2019s. God is always existing, which is a concept absolutely inconceivable to us finite creatures who know only beginnings and endings, breakings down and startings up, all of which are limited by time. Obviously, then, the \u201cbeginning\u201d Genesis describes is ours\u2014the book commences with the creation of our world. Its opening tells us nothing about pre-creation other than to affirm the fact that God was already there. If it did tell us more, it would have begun in an entirely different way, say, \u201cLong ago, before anything was created, the Great Triune God forever lived in perfect love, peace, and unity in an eternal day without morning or evening, constantly communicating that perfect love among the persons of the Godhead.

The opening events of the Book of Acts lead us to the day of Pentecost and Peter\u2019s interpretation of extraordinary happenings involving a room full of fervently praying, Christ-following men and women who become powerfully enabled by God.

Along with the gems, she left plenty of mementos of a life well-lived, as Rita Braver shows us:\nShe won her first Best Actress Oscar in 1961, playing a loose woman in \"BUtterfield 8\"; the second was in 1967, for \"Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?,\" sparring on screen with her real-life husband, Richard Burton.\nElizabeth Taylor - What A Dump by gd0brev on YouTube\nBut those closest to her say that it was the third one that meant the most: 25 Oscar Sundays ago, Elizabeth Taylor earned the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award for her pioneering work in the fight against AIDS. \"I accept this award in honor for all the men, women and children with AIDS who are waging incredibly valiant battles for their lives,\" she said.\nTaylor's activism was especially significant because it started at a time when Hollywood barely whispered about AIDS.\nBraver asked, \"Were you surprised? Or did it just seem something that seemed natural to you?\"\n\"She loved a crisis, she really did,\" replied Naomi De Luce Wilding, Taylor's granddaughter from her second marriage to British actor Michael Wilding. She volunteers for the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation, which the Taylor estate still funds.\nElizabeth Taylor, national chairwoman of the American Foundation for AIDS Research, testifies before a Senate subcommittee on appropriating funds for AIDS research, in Washington, D.C., May 9, 1986. AP Photo/Lana Harris\n\"It was very important for her to speak up for people who weren't being heard,\" Wilding said.\nShe rose to national prominence as a child; by age 11, Taylor was already a star, with \"National Velvet.\" She would go on to make more than 50 films, marry eight times, and lead one of the most glamorous and colorful lives of any woman in American history.\nThe films of Elizabeth Taylor\nHighlights and landmarks from the Oscar-winning actress' career\nTim Mendelson worked for Taylor for 20 years, until her death in 2011.\n\"She was wonderful,\" he said. \"I mean, she was big. She was dramatic. She was tough! The thing that I always like to say is that I had a front-row seat to the best reality show that no one will ever see!\"\nMuch of that time he was her top assistant. Now, Mendelson is a Trustee of her AIDS Foundation, headquartered in Beverly Hills. He also helps run the Elizabeth Taylor Archive, housed here as well.\nSome items have never been seen publicly before, such as childhood essays she wrote that her mother kept. There's a box of photos from her years as an MGM ing\u00e9nue, including pictures on the set of \"Father of the Bride\" with Spencer Tracy. \"They were very close. She called his character 'Pops' in the film, and she called him 'Pops' in real life, too,\" Mendelson said.\nA photo of Elizabeth Taylor and Spencer Tracy taken during filming of \"Father of the Bride.\" CBS News\nThere are letters she wrote to her parents from her 1950 honeymoon with first husband, hotel heir Nicky Hilton: and there are love letters from Richard Burton, whom she married (and divorced) twice. One letter reads: \"You make riot in the imagination \u2026 there's nothing like you.\"\nAlso, her wedding dress from her first marriage to Burton, and the yellow Valentino gown from her eighth wedding, to Larry Fortensky, a man she met while in rehab. They got married at Michael Jackson's ranch, Neverland.\nTim Mendelson shows Rita Braver the Valentino sketch and the resulting gown that Elizabeth Taylor wore for her 1991 wedding to Larry Fortensky. CBS News\nTaylor's wedding album shows Naomi Wilding serving as one of her grandmother's bridesmaids. Wilding says, despite Elizabeth Taylor's glamorous public life, in private she was devoted to her family.\n\"She was an average grandmother in that she was unconditionally loving and supportive, and she offered us a home where we knew we were always welcome,\" Wilding said. \"She was very tactile and very cuddly. So in some ways, especially for me as a kid, I didn't really know the difference between her and any other grandmother.\"\nElizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in 1967, with Michael Wilding, Christopher Wilding, Elizabeth Todd and Maria Burton. Family Photo\nStill, she was a grandmother who helped change the world.\nAs she said while accepting her Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, \"I will remain here as rowdy an activist as I have to be and, God willing, for as long as I have to be.\"\n\"She was timeless,\" Wilding said. \"And I think that it's important to keep that memory alive, [to] remember what she did.\"",

It is Freeing Speech: the Constitutional War Over National Security (NYU Press | Amazon | Google Books) by John Denvir, Research Professor of Constitutional Policy at the University of San Francisco School of Law.\nThe United States is in the midst of a heated conversation over how the Constitution impacts national security. In a traditional reading of the document, America uses military force only after a full and informed national debate. However, modern presidents have had unparalleled access to the media as well as control over the information most relevant to these debates, which jeopardizes the abilities of a democracy\u2019s citizens to fully participate in the discussion. In Freeing Speech, John Denvir targets this issue of presidential dominance and proposes an ambitious solution: a First Amendment that makes sure the voices of opposition are heard.\nDenvir argues that the First Amendment\u2019s goal is to protect the entire structure of democratic debate, even including activities ancillary to the dissemination of speech itself. Assessing the right of political association, the use of public streets and parks for political demonstrations, the press\u2019 ability to comment on public issues, and presidential speech on national security, Denvir examines why this democratic model of free speech is essential at all times, but especially during the War on Terror.\nCourts\u2019 interpretations of constitutions profoundly affect how we live. Many courts of final appeal accord very great deference to governments in the area of national security. In an era of political spin, not to say outright government manipulation of the media, government is often protected from criticism by government secrecy. Freeing Speech argues that we need a new reading of the constitution that both limits executive power and supports full, democratic debate. It is a message that is as important in the US (which is the focus of the book) as it is in Ireland, where the leading Supreme Court decision in this area is the deeply flawed The State (Lynch) v Cooney [1982] IR 337 upholding the infamous section 31(1) of the Broadcasting (Authority) Act, 1960 [(also here), as amended by section 16 of the Broadcasting Authority (Amendment) Act, 1976 (also here), ultimately repealed in 2001].\nMark Tushnet, William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law, Harvard Law School, is entirely right when he says of the book that it offers \u201cprovocative suggestions for a First Amendment for our time, one that would provide us today with the information we need to govern ourselves\u201d. Those interested in the issue should immediately purchase a copy of this book. Indeed, buy two (you can make a gift of the other to your friendly neighbo(u)rhood enthusiast for unfettered state power). Order them from Amazon, and while you\u2019re at it, authorise Amazon to notify NYU Press to make the book available on Kindle.\nProtest? Yes, of course! Censor? No, absolutely not!!\nThe Rushdie fatwa 20 years later\nFor the opposite view, see Gabriel Schoenfeld Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law (Amazon | Norton | Washington Post review).",

Many have died in Accumoli, and a short distance away the city of Amatrice was largely reduced to rubble. The village of Pescara del Tronto was leveled to the ground. Volunteers and civil defense officials rushed to the scene in the middle of the night and used their bare hands to dig for survivors. The roads are cut off, making it difficult for rescuers to search for people still trapped under the rubble. Because the local hospital is unusable, survivors are required to be transported out of town for treatment.\nMay we all prayerfully come together to support and uplift all those involved in the earthquake in Central Italy. We are calling the Angels to assist all who are affected in this tragedy and sending love to all the people in Italy who have been affected. We pray for the people who have lost their lives and for the many who have been injured. Let us see the health care teams using their wisdom to make good, sound decisions and to use their experience and education to bring about the best possible outcome and quickest possible recoveries. As we visualize those who are still trapped, we pray that they stay safe until they are found and rescued. We also elevate all rescue teams to be guided and inspired and supported in their work, and to stay open to the synchronicities that may lead to those still under house rubbles.

        "raw_content": "None us have the right to determine how another person\u2019s journey is carried out, nor when it\u2019s reached it\u2019s end.\nWe do not have the right to dictate when, where, or how another person should live. We do not have the right to dictate when, where, or how another person should die. Many people would argue with this \u2013 what about the addicts, the mentally ill, the emotionally manipulated? Don\u2019t they need someone to take care of them? Well, yes, people do need help from time to time, but there are many ways to take care of someone without taking over and exhausting ourselves trying to control two, or sometimes even more, lives. We also don\u2019t know what everyone else has come here to learn, to accomplish. As hard as it is, sometimes we need to go through hardships to grow.\nOther beings deserve no less respect. We \u2018own\u2019 animals, we hunt animals, we use and abuse them no differently than we use and abuse Earth. Many people act as though animals are property, but in reality, we can\u2019t \u2018own\u2019 another soul. My first thought when my dog died was that he shouldn\u2019t have been alone. But that is what he chose. He went to a place that he clearly felt was right for him. He didn\u2019t come looking for us, to lay down beside us. He purposely went to a peaceful little area in the shade of a tree, and laid down there to take his last breath. By assuming that I knew what he should have done and what would have been better for him, I disempowered him. I disrespected his choice and acted as though my opinion was the \u2018right\u2019 one. When I was able to recognize that reaction in myself, I was able to let go of guilt, respect his choice, and move into a state of grief that did justice to the bond that we had shared for so many years.\nAs we move through our lives, we will continue to have responsibilities. We can live up to these, gladly and lovingly, without overstepping and spilling ourselves out all over everyone else. Most of us have experienced feelings of over-responsibility for others. Most of us have had others try to take over for us. It\u2019s uncomfortable no matter which end of it you\u2019re on, and in order to free ourselves of these habits, we have to find the balance point where we share and grow together, without pushing our own agendas.\nBut where to start? We can try the following:\nStay open to synchronistic events, they may offer solutions and guidance when dealing with loved ones and relationship struggles.\nWithout seeking dominance over each other, share intuitive insights in unobtrusive ways, \u201c\u2026always looking out for the \u2018best interests\u2019 of others, and at the same time, striving to perceive something they need in order to manifest their dreams. If we give them this information, it feels Synchronistic to them and elevates their lives.\u201d ~The Third Insight\nOvercome our own control dramas so they don\u2019t impact those around us.\nMediate and perform other spiritual activities that elevate our own energy levels and reduce stress.\nDevelop stronger interpersonal ethics by uplifting and empowering those around us.\nKeep in mind that while we are all connected, we are also individuals. Each of us have a personal spiritual path and life mission to carry out.\nEach interaction is a chance to evaluate where we are and where we need to go. Not one of us is perfect, and we do get caught up in each other\u2019s dramas and energies, but each time we work through things while staying in our own lanes, we move further into balanced harmony and into synchronistic flow. Soon enough, this respectful, responsible way of being will become the norm, and over-responsibility will fade into a distant memory.\nTo be kept up to date with the latest Celestine news and volunteer opportunities, subscribe to our newsletter here.\nHealing A Broken Heart\tHow To Engage in Conscious Conversation",

        "raw_content": "Jeffrey Patrick Dirlam\n\"From up here you can see it all!\"\nMy son...my best friend...a true angel of this world in his short life. What more can I say??\nJeff was the kind of person that everyone loved. He had no enemies! Jeff was that little blond-haired blue-eyed toddler that everyone loved because of his contagious smile. In his teen years, some of his friends got into drugs. Jeff got them off of drugs. Some got into trouble. Jeff was always there to help them through. In his 20's, Jeff kept bestowing onto people his charm, love and that contagious smile. If he only had a dime left to his name, he would give it to anyone who asked! He once had a bad leg injury from a two story fall. On the way to a party he saw a fire in a barn. He hopped the fence ignoring the pain and got the horses out. He came upon an accident on the way to work and a Porsche was burning with an elderly man inside. Risking his own life, he pulled the man to safety. The man was the chief of an Indian tribe and offered to pay Jeff a large sum of money for saving his life. Jeff refused even though he needed money badly at that time!\nJeff had Wilson's disease. It is an inherited disease that prevents the liver from eliminating copper and eventually the liver fails if untreated. It also causes accumulation of copper in the brain and other organs and if not found and treated in time, leaves the person's body in a vegetative state but with full mental capacity. Wilson's disease is very rare and mimics a lot of other diseases so it is hard to diagnose. Jeff had a lot of copper in his brain and was not treated in time. Jeff suffered horribly in his last year of life yet still maintained his smile and playfulness. I remember many times when I would throw myself on him and cry because of the pain I saw in his eyes. He would always struggle to raise his arms and put them around me and hug me to let me know it was OK. Jeff was the one who was suffering and yet he still found the courage to comfort those around him! Many people with and without this disease have told me that Jeff's inspiring story has helped them overcome the hardships they are facing!\nJeff had an inseparable best friend when he was younger. When we moved away in 1989, his friend was devastated and fell into a bad group and ended up on drugs and in a lot of trouble. He blamed it all on Jeff not being able to guide and protect him. He was going through a major depression in 2002 and tried to take his own life. While in a coma, he saw Jeff smiling and telling him he would be OK and not to be stupid anymore. When he came out of the coma, he asked for Jeff whom he hadn't seen for many years but wanted to thank him. He didn't realize that Jeff had not come to the hospital to see him. The doctors had no idea who he was talking about. He knew at that point that he would shape up and try to live life like his best friend Jeff did. Jeff's friend and I found each other just a few months ago after all these years and realized Jeff had just died while his friend was in the coma and we both knew that Jeff had come to him and told him his life would be better. Even in death, Jeff was still his best friend. He never knew Jeff had died and was very sad. He said Jeff would always be his best friend and he knows Jeff truly did save his life and watches over him now. He just found out he is a father and his life is turning around. He will tell his son of his best friend who now watches over both of them. I can see the radiant excitement of life in his son's eyes. Jeff is still helping people even after he has left us!\nAt Jeff's funeral, the place was packed. I didn't know three quarters of the people there. I had no idea how many lives my son had touched in some small or major way until I saw those people. Many people told of the times they spent with Jeff and how he was always happy and of his contagious smile and how he helped them get through rough times in their lives. There were so many wonderful stories of how Jeff touched people's lives. People were very sad but I knew Jeff wouldn't want them to leave that way so at the end of the service, I handed out kazoos and we all hummed songs just like Jeff used to do with new friends. It brought the house down. Everyone said they would never forget Jeff. I hope they never do!\nJeff was my only child and best friend. He was an angel sent to Earth by God to make people smile. Why he was only given 25 years to do that I will never know but I know he is looking down on the Earth now and still smiling upon those who knew him, those who need him now and those who will need him in the future!\nWhen he was four years old, he saw the ocean for the first time. He crawled up a huge sand dune and as the cloudy sky was giving way to a beautiful sunset, he twirled around with his arms outstretched and with that famous Jeffrey Dirlam smile said, \"From up here you can see it all!\"\nIf you would like to learn more about Jeff's life and Wilson's disease, please visit his Web site.\nwww.JeffsLegacy.com\nYou will always be with me Jeff!",

        "title": "CURRENCY AND BANKING",
        "raw_content": "The currency in Mexico is the Mexican peso. It is posted or written with a dollar sign in front of the amount the same as in the U.S. or Canada. This can be confusing initially to newcomers as they struggle to make mental conversions, but within a few days everyone is usually into the swing of things.\nMexico is a cash society. Credit cards may be accepted at high end shops and restaurants and in tourist zones, but don\u2019t expect it. Credit and debit cards are not widely used by Mexicans, so merchants hate to pay the high administration charges unless they have a lot of business from foreigners. In addition, you will be able to negotiate much better prices for your purchases if you have cash. Some Mexican retailers will accept U.S. dollars, albeit at a reduced rate of exchange, but the local currency is favored by most. Travellers\u2019 cheques need to be cashed at a bank or money exchange shop (you will have to show your passport for these transactions). Very seldom will a merchant cash a traveller\u2019s cheque.\nFortunately, cash is easily obtained. Most Canadian or American bank cards or credit cards work in the Mexican ATM\u2019s. Check the logos on the back of your card and compare them to the logos on the ATM to find the ATM\u2019s that are compatible. This is usually the most cost effective way to obtain cash \u2013 the service charges may be higher than back home, but not as much as buying and cashing travellers\u2019 cheques. Also, ATM\u2019s tend to give very competitive exchange rates. Your bank can advise if you need a new personal identification number (PIN) for international access to your account.\nThe banking system in Mexico is relatively advanced - a combination of high-tech infrastructure and low-tech delivery systems (not necessarily the fault of the banks). Since the financial crisis of 1994-95, most of the banks in Mexico have been taken over by European or American banks, and are very stable. ATM services are available throughout the country, not only at banks, but also at supermarkets, malls and other high traffic areas. Be sure to use these machines during daylight hours in secure areas.\nHow to transfer money from U.S. bank account to Mexican bank account\nIf you decide to open a bank account in Mexico and will want to transfer money regularly either one way or both ways, the following may be helpful to you. (For example, if one of your children decides to do a year of study at a university in Mexico). When deciding on a bank, select one that has a partner bank in the U.S. (this may necessitate changing your bank in the U.S. or Canada, too). Citibank is a partner with Banamex. Bank of America is a partner with Santander Serfin. Scotiabank in Canada is a partner with Scotiabank Inverlat. When you go to the bank, tell them you want to set up an account so you or a family member can withdraw from the account in either country. They will set it up so you can have an ATM card and can send another ATM card to your family member. Then, you can deposit money in the account and the other person can withdraw it in Mexico. Conversely, if you decide to retire early to sunny Mexico, and still have a couple of offspring in college back home, they can access cash from your account in Mexico in the same way. You just both need an ATM card and use the same username and password. Be cautious when you send ATM cards - do not use the regular mail. Use a courier to ensure its safety.\nThe costs and procedures for bank transfers of large amounts vary depending on the institutions, the urgency and the amount. Your realtor (if you\u2019re buying a home) or banker can advise you on the most cost-effective method for such transfers. Be precise with the amount you will be transferring when asking for costs, exchange rates, etc. and ask for a written estimate. Some charges, for example, are fixed amounts while others are percentages. If you have the option of making, say, 3 payments over 6 months or 1 payment in 3 months, but the fixed charges per transfer are high, it might be a big factor in your decision.\nCurrency values rise and fall in relation to each other. Some people like to study the trends and make purchases of pesos when it is most advantageous for them. Others may have little choice but to convert their dollars whenever they become available. For people making large conversions, possibly a year or two in the future, there are foreign exchange specialists who will guarantee an exchange rate at dates in the future. We can put you in contact with these specialists. For those who are making small, but regular exchanges some local casas de cambio offer better rates than others. It is prudent to shop around.\nThere are also a group of financial institutions that are similar to banks, but that do not offer the full range of banking services. These instititutions take deposits and offer a series of plans for investing your deposit. Interest rates are substantially higher than at a bank, but the money is less accessible and no chequing privileges are available. It is also more cumbersome to transfer large amounts into and out of these institutions, as it has to go through a Mexican bank for transfer to or from your bank back home. However, they are very popular among expatriates who only require bi-weekly or monthly cash withdrawals for personal spending, but who want a cash reserve available in the country to pay for emergencies.",

        "raw_content": "\u00bb Institute for Quantum Studies\n+ - About the Institute for Quantum Studies\nThe mission of the Institute for Quantum Studies is to provide a worldwide focal point for students, researchers, governments, and industries to collaborate on advanced studies of quantum mechanics, including: quantum foundations, quantum information science, quantum computing and technology, and applications thereof to other fields.\nIn addition, we offer support to new fields evolving from these cooperative advances in mathematics, as well as social, biological, computational, and physical sciences.\nThe Institute for Quantum Studies strives to communicate both the relevance, and importance, of quantum mechanics to an extended audience through community focused outreach. We hope to address the diverse interests of the general public by making conceptually rich science more accessible to others.\nDr. Steven Chu, Nobel Laureate in Physics and former US Secretary of Energy, has said, \u201cThe Institute for Quantum Studies will be a place of inspiration, insight, and imagination. The fields it will further are important to the strength of the nation. But even more critical is the commitment the Institute has made to deepen our nation\u2019s appreciation for the importance of science, and to convey the mystery and wonder of the universe to our citizens.\u201d\n+ - Why study quantum mechanics?\nWHY QUANTUM STUDIES?\nQuantum physics is the most successful scientific theory in history, and is crucial for the advances not only driving our economy, but also propelling us towards new possibilities. Early in the twentieth century, big scientific theories governing the microscopic world of atoms would lead to many discoveries that, today, account for over half of the US Gross National Product (discoveries such as computers, lasers, etc).\nSpeaking before the US Congressional Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, Dr. William Jeffrey, the Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) stated,\nAmerica\u2019s future prosperity and economic security may rely in part on the exotic properties of some of the smallest particles in nature to accomplish feats in physics, information science, and mathematics that are impossible with today's technology. Quantum information science seeks to use the fundamental properties of nature at very small scales to build technologies that... offer potential solutions to issues looming on the horizon of technology development, including the limits of Moore's Law on the microelectronics industry.\nQuantum Studies sets the scientific standard for the future by redefining what\u2019s possible now.\n+ - History\nFounded by our current Directors, Yakir Aharonov and Jeff Tollaksen, in...\nAdvanced Physics Laboratory +\n\u00bb Investigating Innovative Superconducting Materials\n\u00bb Exploring Novel Quantum Effects and Devices\n\u00bb Re-imagining Superconducting Gravitational Wave Detectors and Gravity Gradiometers\n\u00bb Yakir Aharonov, PhD\nQuantum Simulation and Quantum Walks (QSQW)\nAharonov, Albert, & Vaidman (AAV) Conference\nSuperhydrides and More\nWelcome Dr. Vaidman!\nDr. Lev Vaidman presents \"From Quantum Miracles to Many Worlds\" on Friday, February 8th @ 2PM in 404 Beckman Hall.",

The band also said it was prepared to make up the dates with another singer.\n\u201cFrom what I gather, and I don\u2019t have all the information, I only hear certain sides here,\u201d Breuer said. \u201cHe said that he called and let them know, \u2018Hey this is what the doctor said, but let\u2019s try to figure this out. Let\u2019s see what\u2019s going on here, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s as bad as he said it is.\u2019 Literally the next day in the press, it was \u2018Brian Johnson, tour canceled, he\u2019s losing his hearing.'\u201d\n\u201cThen he\u2019s like, \u2018You know what? I would really like to finish and do some shows. I think we can knock this out.\u2019 Then all his luggage that he toured with showed up at his driveway. There\u2019s been no calls. No, \u2018How\u2019s your hearing? How\u2019s your health? What\u2019s going on?\u2019 Boom. Here\u2019s your (expletive), nice to know you.\u201d\nBreuer, who later backed off some of his comments, continued, \u201cThere\u2019s been no answer (from the band),\u201d he said. \u201cHe feels like he heard from someone that they already hired somebody, it just hasn\u2019t been announced yet. (Brian) said it went from \u2018It\u2019s canceled to \u2018Now we\u2019re gonna do it, but it\u2019s gonna be like karaoke with guest stars.'\u201d\nBreuer said Johnson said \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve been kicked to the curb.\u201d\nBreuer later wrote on his Facebook page \u201cI have seen some stories circulating about my podcast. As a friend, I saw Brian withdrawn for the first time in my life. He\u2019s not a quitter, he seemed hurt by the situation of being between a rock and a hard place. I spoke as a true fan and friend, simply venting as if he was a brother of mine. I hope to see him Rock Out one more time. You have to remember I\u2019m a comedian & a storyteller. I definitely exaggerate and sometimes I get a little carried away!! And this was one of those times!\nNo word on which part was supposedly exaggerated. Nor is there word from the band \u2014 yet.

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To The One Place You Can't Play Pokemon Go in Thailand Updates\nThe One Place You Can't Play Pokemon Go in Thailand\nThere are a lot of places where you can play Pokemon Go, but one of those places is not the polling booths in Thailand. The country has welcomed the game with open arms for its release on August 6th in Thailand, but they're already saying \"No!\" to catching Pokemon while inside the polling booth.\nGo Nintendo picked up the story from the Nation Multimedia news outlet, where Thailand's election commissioner Somchai Srisutthiyakorn explained...\nIf you are not polling station staffs, you cannot go inside the polling booths unless you are going to cast ballots. Catching Pokemons there is prohibited. Normally, if you are not voting, you are not allowed to get inside a polling booth - not for catching a Pokemon, not for anything.\nThe election commissioner is actually said to be a fan of the game, but simply wants people to abide by the rules and not venture inside the election booths for any other purpose that does not include voting.\nSo what happens if you're inside the voting booth and you get a notification that a Pokemon is nearby? Are you then allowed to play Pokemon Go briefly to catch the Pokemon while you vote?\nWell, deputy secretary-general of the Election Commission, Thanit Sriprathet, explained that it will be on a case by case basis...\nThis has to be looked at on a case by case basis. It depends how he or she acts. We cannot really say that catching a Pokemon is a crime against the referendum act. It depends on their manners,\nNormally, if you are not voting, you are not allowed to get inside a polling booth - not for catching a Pokemon, not for anything,\nThat makes sense that they would simply want to enforce the rules, even for Pokemon Go. However, Sriprathet does mention that using cell phones in the booths while voting is not immediately prohibited, but you cannot take photos or selfies or create any sort of visual media that can be transmitted that indicates that you are \"crossing your ballot\".\nPokemon Go's launch in Thailand was accompanied by launches in multiple countries in south east Asia, including but not limited to Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Taiwan and Fiji. Still, there's no launch in China -- one of the largest gaming capitals of the world -- due to the geolocation concerns, and the game also won't be launching Iran due to security concerns, according to the BBC.\nNiantic Labs is really stepping up the availability of the game, even while some locations and institutions attempt to block the game from being played in certain areas. In one case veterans at a veteran's park were angered that gamers were playing Pokemon Go at the park because they felt it was disrespectful. In another case, a museum director at the Holocaust Museum did not want people playing the game while in the museum. So if you do happen to be playing Pokemon Go in Thailand, just make sure you're not playing it while in the polling booth.",

        "title": "How Netflix's Trollhunters Handled Anton Yelchin's Mid-Production Death",
        "raw_content": "Subscribe To How Netflix's Trollhunters Handled Anton Yelchin's Mid-Production Death Updates\nHow Netflix's Trollhunters Handled Anton Yelchin's Mid-Production Death\nThis week marks the debut of Netflix's original series Trollhunters, a long-in-the-making project that boasts filmmaker Guillermo del Toro as creator, as well as a stacked cast including Ron Perlman and Steven Yeun. Perhaps most notably, the lead role was played by Anton Yelchin, who sadly died earlier this year when the vocal performances were still being recorded. Arrow co-creator Marc Guggenheim, an executive producer on Trollhunters, recently spoke with CinemaBlend about the vivid and fantastical series, and when I asked how Yelchin's untimely passing affected things, here's what he told me.\nI think for a very long time, we just had a difficult time wrapping our brains around the loss of Anton, and what it meant to the show. There was a long time when none of us really wanted to -- we knew in the back of our heads that there was a practical requirement that we find someone who could finish out the series in Anton's stead. The unfortunate reality, though, was that we were not ready to face that, and it took quite some time for us to even start having conversations about what we were going to do and how we were going to go about it. I don't want to speak for anyone else, but I think we all sort of knew what would help get us over that was the appreciation for the fact that the best way to honor Anton and to celebrate his life and his contributions to the show would be to get it out there into the world, and that involved finishing it. And that involved finding someone who could help us do that.\nIt sucks to deal with any occupational setback, but there's obviously nothing more devastating than someone losing their life. And from a purely business-minded standpoint, such a tragic incident is particularly problematic, as not only is there an unfinished job that needs a resolution, but any kind of delay costs both money and time from the studios and other actors. As Marc Guggenheim implied, it sucks that one's personal reality is still there and needing attention when something as intangible as death is at the forefront of the mind.\nGuillermo del Toro was vocal in the past about Anton Yelchin's performance remaining in Trollhunters, and he refused to start over with anyone else. Another actor was eventually brought in to fill out the lines/episodes that Yelchin wasn't able to complete, though, and I'm sure that wasn't the easiest thing for that actor to go through, either. But to have it any other way would mean shelving one of Yelchin's final performances, and that would have been another tragedy of lesser standing. Having seen some of Trollhunters, I can attest to Yelchin being perfect as Jim, the teenager who finds a magical amulet that opens up a whole new and dangerous world.\nMarc Guggenheim, who compared the character development in Trollhunters to that of Arrow, had lots of praise for Anton Yelchin's work. Pointing out how hard it is for some actors to put forth 100% in voice-only form, Guggenheim said Yelchin was a natural, and that this role will be one that honors him properly. Here are a few more of his kind words.\nI think one of the things that people are gonna find when they watch multiple episodes is at some point, I think in the best possible way, you forget that it's Anton, and he becomes Jim. Given the fact that Anton hadn't had experience voice acting, I think it's a particularly remarkable accomplishment. We really got a chance to watch him grow into the role of Jim and also grow and really refine the craft of voice acting. The series itself is really a wonderful testament not just to his talent, but his spirit. His humanity really comes across in the voice of Jim.\nThankfully, you don't have long to wait at all to hear Anton Yelchin's stellar performance, as well as everyone else's, as Trollhunters will make its action-packed debut on Netflix on Friday, December 23, at 12:00 a.m. PT.

Those 949 students come from differing ethnicities, including Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latino, Native American or Native Alaskan, as well as multiethnic/multiracial households.\nOf the new freshmen class, 14 percent are the first generation of their family to attend a four-year college.\nDerick Hutchinson/ClickOnDetroit.com\nThe Go Blue Guarantee, which helped 1,700 students this semester, does two things. First, it offers free tuition to in-state students coming from families making less than $65,000 with assets valued at $50,000 or less. Second, financial aid assistance is given to in-state students who come from families with a combined income of less than $180,000.\nThe guarantee was U-M's call to students from different socioeconomic backgrounds that the U-M wants to be an option for them.\nAlong with the Go Blue Guarantee, Pell grants, now support 17.9 percent of the undergraduate student body.\nFor more information on enrollment numbers for this fall, visit Michigan News.",

Full membership of the Cliffe Minstermen is available to residents of the parish of Cliffe, and associate membership is available to anyone who wishes to be part of the Cliffe Minstermen. The 2013/14 season saw the group sponsor the boots of Russell Penn and the mini kit of John McCombe. In the 2014/15 and 2015/16 season we supported York City by way of sponsoring the home kit of Jake Hyde and hope in the future to do more to support York City FC. The group helped collect signatures in support of the new stadium on a number of occasions. We have made numerous contacts and friends within the club and other supporters group of York City that has enhanced our standing and also made the York City football experience all the more enjoyable. Over the short time of our existence we have commissioned our own flag that has been seen at many grounds, on TV and gets a mention practically every away game by radio York. Also we have produced polo shirts and T shirts along with 2 limited edition badges of our home and away colours. Each season the Cliffe Minstermen award a player of the season trophy to the winner of the members vote. Keith Lowe won the award in 2013/14 and Michael Coulson was named player of the season 2014/15. We may be the smallest supporter group to be involved with York City but we are backed by one of the biggest names in the clubs history, Cliffe resident and City legend Chris Topping, has been made a Life President of the Cliffe Minstermen.",

        "raw_content": "Home / News / Sir Robin Knoxjohnston And Sir Ben Ainslie Announce Challenge Of A Lifetime For Uk Youth\nSir Robin Knox-Johnston and founder and patron of the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation, Sir Ben Ainslie joined forces today to announce a unique opportunity for one young person to experience Mother Nature\u2019s toughest conditions, as a competitor in the tenth anniversary edition of the Clipper Race.\nSpeaking today at the PSP Southampton Boat Show, the pair revealed a national contest for 18-24 year olds, regardless of previous sailing experience, to win a crew place during the Pacific Ocean leg in the 2015-16 edition of the race.\nThe prize, worth more than \u00a310,000, has been donated by Sir Robin to the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation, which Sir Ben Ainslie helped found in memory of his friend and Olympic sailing partner to transform the lives of young people through sailing.\n\u201cI share the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation\u2019s passion for inspiring young people to have life changing experiences through sailing, and I am delighted to be donating this unique adventure,\u201d remarked Sir Robin today.\n\u201cWhen you take on the Pacific Ocean crossing, you are taking on something very, very special. There is nothing bigger or more awesome on this planet,\u201d he continued: \u201cThis is something that will test you and push you to limits you didn\u2019t know you had. Very few people have tackled this challenge and now it\u2019s your chance to be one of them.\u201d\nSpeaking on board one of the Clipper 70 racing yachts, Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation founder and patron, Sir Ben Ainslie added: \u201cThe Clipper Round the World Yacht Race is a real marathon around the globe, and an incredible sporting and personal achievement.\n\"It is really exciting for the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation to be able to provide this opportunity for a young person to compete in such a challenging race. It really will be a once in a lifetime experience for the competition winner.\u201d\nStarting in China and ending in the West Coast of the USA, Leg 6, the Pacific Ocean crossing, is 5,500 miles long and will take approximately one month to complete. At times, the fleet\u2019s closest human neighbours will be the astronauts orbiting above them in the international space station.\nAnyone in the UK aged 18-24, can be nominated for the prize. No previous sailing experience is required as full training will be provided. You will just have to provide your reasons for nominating this particular young person to take on the challenge.\nTo nominate a young person you think would gain from the Clipper Race experience, download the application form and check the terms and conditions at www.andrewsimpsonfoundation.co.uk/news.\nThe closing date for nominations is 14 November. A shortlist of five finalists will be announced on 3 December and both Sir Robin Knox-Johnston and Sir Ben Ainslie will be part of the final voting process. The winner must be available for four weeks of training based out of Gosport, Portsmouth Harbour, on the UK south coast, and also the race itself from China to North America which will take place during March-April 2016.\nTo listen to Sir Robin talk on why the Clipper Race is supporting the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation, and what the winner can expect to experience - Click here",

        "raw_content": "Howdy, \"Wisdom is nothing more than healed pain.\" ~Robert Gray Lee\nWe all get hurt. Nothing that freaks us out, hurts our feelings or brings up a feeling of being overwhelmed stems from this moment. We are all replaying and reusing old pain when new pain arises. You may feel abandoned by a friend at some point, regardless of whether or not the friend actually abandoned you. What that fried may have done is helped you recall the feeling of abandonment. You feelings of abandonment are not rooted in the present moment. Something somewhere happened and you are now vigilant about finding the things that you have been hurt by in the past, in order to not feel them in the future. You can always tell when the feeling is from the past. You tell this because you recognize it. It is familiar.\nWe don't mean to tell someone that they did something. We just don't ever get the tools to really say what is happening for us. In some ways we may actually feel like the person is actually doing something to us because of how attached our response is to their behavior. What hurts us the most is what we tend to look for the most. We put energy into it and feel justified on doing so when we tend to find what hurt us everywhere we look. We believe we find it because it is there. The truth is that it is there because we look for it.\nTaking the blame out of your pain is a big deal. Knowing that what pains you stems from past experiences can, if you are able to in the moment, de-escalate the interaction by taking ownership of your issue\u2026 by knowing the root as well. You don't have to know where it cam from to know that it didn't start today. No one is experiencing trauma (regardless of the kind) for the first time at the age of 30. You are in the middle of being triggered by a situation that reminds you of previous times. This can be frustrating at times and unpleasant for the one who does the triggering\u2026 but it doesn't have to be all for naught.\nWhen you are in a relationship/friendship or what-have-you, you are working towards a deeper understanding of yourself. Through others you will see yourself. All you need to do is look. Being triggered allows you to face some past hurts that have yet to be resolved. In actuality being triggered is a blessing if your goals are to know who you are and where you came from. Being triggered allows you to put some closure on the past. If it isn't happening right now then you are ok and when it is happening right now you are managing it because that is what we all do. We are fine, we are strong, we are able even when we are not.\n\"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.\" ~Khalil Gibran\nTagged: blame, fear, love, memoriy, pain, past, triggered\nNewer PostLove Not Fear",

        "raw_content": "Main concerns of fish farms\nThe safety of employees on fish farms is of course, very important. Unfortunately, it is not unknown for employees to fall into water or to require aid on these sites. Particularly at night, visibility can be low and it is therefore paramount to have a system in place that allows constant surveillance in real-time, as well as the possibility to track and find anyone in danger in order to bring them back to safety.\nTheft/Poaching\nDepending on the location, theft and poaching can pose a great threat to fish farms. If unprepared, farms can find themselves defenseless against theft which could have severe business repercussions. In the long run, it is certainly preferable to invest in a system that allows you to safe-guard your business against this type of problem.\nAn example of this occurred in the River Wye in Britain. Between 2009 and 2011, the number of wild salmon dropped by 57%, largely due to illegal poaching. The poached fish was stolen and then sold on the black market. (Source: www.independent.co.uk)\nMonitor nearby Traffic\nEven in areas where theft and poaching are not a threat, it is very important for the fish farm operator to monitor nearby traffic. A security perimeter has to be established to prevent vessels getting untangled in the fish farm lines and nets. Recreational fishermen might also be tempted to fish near the farm and might accidentally hook a fish inside the farm causing net damage.\nTZ Coastal Monitoring includes a range of features that are perfectly-adapted to fish farming.\nAs we have mentioned above, the safety of farm employees is one of the main risks involved in fishing. To combat this, TZ Coastal Monitoring offers several safety features including integration with thermal cameras. These cameras can be controlled directly from the software system and the user can quickly lock-on and track certain targets, such as a man in the water. The advantage of integrating thermal cameras with TZ Coastal Monitoring is that objects are clearly visible even in total darkness. People are particularly visible with heat detection cameras.\nIf employees working on the fish farm are fitted with an AIS SART beacon inside the life jacket, TZ Coastal Monitoring can automatically trigger an alarm when a man falls in the water.\nNot only does TZ Coastal Monitoring alert the on-site operator, but it also gives the exact position of the incident on the screen and can be configured to automatically point the camera in that direction.\nFish farms in Norway are being equipped with TZ Coastal Monitoring. Every employee is wearing an AIS SART beacon that is automatically triggered when a man falls in the water. In such an incident, a local alarm is triggered, then the camera will automatically pan to track the man in the water and an SMS is sent to the fish farm main operating center.\nTo prevent theft, poaching and monitor nearby traffic, TZ Coastal Monitoring can detect unknown objects approaching the fish farm with precision. ARPA targets can be tracked by the integrated radar(s) which can alert you to possible intruders even when they are still relatively far from the site. Fish Farm operating service vessels can be classified thanks to AIS to prevent those triggering alarms.\nVarious boundaries can be drawn by the user and set to trigger different behaviors. For example, in the TIMEZERO software screenshot, a green area [1] has been created to automatically acquire and track targets detected by the Radar (ARPA targets).\nA second light green area [2] has been drawn to represent the 100 meter safety area. Any vessel that is not fish farm operated will trigger a notification and the camera automatically points in the direction of the target. This allows the operator to identify the type of vessel and react accordingly.\nThe read area [3] is the forbidden area (20 meter perimeter) that is set to trigger an alarm and optionally send an SMS or email.\nNote: Yellow areas are used to exclude Radar detection from the fish cage or buoys.\nThe diagram (Fig.1) highlights a typical installation diagram for Fish Farm operation:\nOne Dome Radar (or small Open Array antenna)\nOne AIS receiver is used to receive the position of the fish farm's own service vessels and detect AIS SART (man falls in the water)\nMultiple Personal AIS SART beacon that are installed inside the safety jacket and that get automatically activated when touching water\nFish Farm Platform - Fig.1\nThe most important fish species used in fish farming are carp, salmon, tilapia and catfish. TZ Coastal Monitoring is well-suited to all types of aquaculture that require a monitoring and safety solution.\nHere are some examples of the different kinds of fish farming methods employed by potential users of our system:\nThis is a method of placing cages in the water, so that fish are kept in a controlled area. This is commonly used in lakes, ponds or rivers. \u201cOff-shore cultivation\u201d is the term given to cages that are placed in oceans.\nThey require an area of ground that retains water and it is typically lined with bentonite clay. Some of these sites use above-ground irrigation systems while others underground pipes. The fish waste can fertilize adjoining fields.\nIt's a very efficient system in which several different fish species are farmed in the same waters. The types of fish are carefully selected so that they do not compete for the same types of food. For example, bottom feeders are mixed with column and surface feeders. This optimizes the usage of food in the water.\nThey are located in greenhouses, and when properly tuned, produce more edible protein per square foot than any other. Algae naturally grows, given the greenhouse environment and the fish feed on this.\nAlso known as the \u201cflow through system\u201d is a method in which fish eggs are grown until they develop into fingerlings or fry. They are then transported via truck to a stream. This method has been used for years, especially for stocking waters with sport fish.",

        "title": "Should A Military Person Ever Answer Questions From The Police Without An Attorney?",
        "raw_content": "Here is a very common tactic that law enforcement uses: \u201cHey, there is this incident that came up and you\u2019re not under arrest. We just want to find out your side of the story. Would you be willing to talk with us?\u201d\nThey might come to your home and ask this question, or show up at work or even call you on the phone to schedule an appointment. In any event, the answer is always the same, \u201cI would like to speak to an attorney\u201d.\nThe best time to kill Godzilla is when he is still in the egg.\nWhen a military service member is approached by the police and they start asking questions about his or her involvement in something, the response should always be \u201cI would like to speak to an attorney\u201d.\nPeople normally have a desire to express themselves and explain the situation. There may very well be a time and place for that but that is not going to be to a law enforcement officer without having a lawyer. That\u2019s a disaster. The police are not authorized to offer a plea bargain in the field. Their job is to investigate and build a case.\nDo Military Personnel Face The Same Penalties As Civilian Offenders?\nMilitary personnel face the same criminal law penalties as civilians. The big difference is that they suffer potential military punishment on top of anything civil. Depending on the branch of service, they also can\u2019t get out of jail until the military is notified. That technically isn\u2019t a penalty under the law but for someone who\u2019s in jail while someone is taking their sweet time arranging for them to be released, that in itself is a punishment.\nWhat Are The Potential Consequences Of A Conviction On A Military Career?\nAn arrest is bad enough for a military career. Attorney Stephen Cobb has actually had flight school students being grounded and transferred to what could only be described as punishment duty before he was even hired to represent them on a first offense DUI. However, when you\u2019re talking about a conviction, it can have dramatic consequences for military career. A felony \u2013 especially a sex offense conviction of any kind \u2013 is a career killer. The only exception would be a charge of indecent exposure. Indecent exposure is right next to the section of law that deals with lewd and lascivious molestation act or battery. Indecent exposure is part of statute 800.03 and lewd or lascivious is 800.04.\nThe indecent exposure scenario most frequently happens when people are nude sunbathing or out drinking. They have to go to the bathrooms and can\u2019t find one fast enough. At some point he or she tries to go in some place discreet and perhaps urinates behind a tree. The next thing you know they are charged with indecent exposure. Technically, that is a sex offense. There is no sex offender designation or registration requirements.\nWhen it comes to representing military personnel, it\u2019s wise to remember that the military is different. For some, a conviction can lead to a suicide. This is not talked about very often but it has happened. Yet another reason why the Cobb Law Firm uses Coping with Stress During Criminal Prosecution, a powerful stress reduction protocol.\nGenerally speaking, a criminal conviction is going to damage a military career. However, for example, there is a big difference between a DUI conviction and a felony DUI conviction. A felony DUI conviction is probably going to cause the service member to be separated with a dishonorable discharge.\nWhenever possible, negotiated dismissals, reductions and outright dismissals are important strategic and tactical considerations. Charges that have been dismissed can usually be expunged and erased.\nWhat Are The Consequences Faced In Civilian Life By Military Personnel After A Conviction?\nThe military is very good about a lot of things related to discipline and an orderly mode of living. That\u2019s by design and for very good reasons. Every military service member\u2019s goal at the end of their career is an honorable discharge. For example, an honorable discharge means that they can join certain veteran\u2019s organizations. A general discharge and certainly a dishonorable discharge can haunt the veteran for a lifetime. Many veteran organizations will not accept someone\u2019s application for membership if they received a general discharge. None will allow them to join if they have been dishonorably discharged.\nA conviction that damages their discharge status is something that people don\u2019t really think about and for people outside of military life it may be very hard to understand. The civilian without any exposure to military life would look at a general discharge and think, \u201cOh, whatever\u201d, whereas someone in the military would say \u201cIf they didn\u2019t get an honorable discharge, they must have done something wrong\u201d.\nIt also is something that prevents veterans from having certain special preferences that they would get only if they received an honorable discharge. There are other collateral consequences in the civilian life for military members as well, because so many civilians don\u2019t understand how important it is to a lot of military service personnel.\nIt may not be important to some but the vast majority that I have served over the past couple of decades find an honorable discharge to be one of the most important ways to end their military career.\nFor more information on Answering Police Questions, a free initial consultation is your next best step.

Down to the zip code, location mattered as much as anything else. While some experts and economists have predicted a downturn in 2019, evidence of softening real estate markets was not universal across the state, according to the association.\nIn Summit County, the total residential sales volume eclipsed $1.3 billion last year. That\u2019s up 1.1 percent compared to 2017, but the actual number of properties sold fell 5.4 percent, according to statistics provided by Bonnie Smith, the managing broker and owner of Exclusive Mountain Retreats Real Estate in Breckenridge.\nModerately priced homes in the county absolutely flew off the market last year, said Smith, who\u2019s seen the same trend with moderately priced condos, townhomes and duplexes in Summit.\nAs an example of how tight the market is, Smith pointed to the 159 listings for single-family homes currently for sale in Summit County at an average asking price of $2.4 million. She was careful to say that figure includes a $23 million listing \u2014 the Triple Creek Ranch north of Silverthorne \u2014 which skews the average, but added there are currently only three single-family homes listed for under $700,000 in the county.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s going on is nothing on the low end is remaining on the market,\u201d Smith said. \u201cAnything under $500,000, $550,000 or $600,000 is just flying out the door.\u201d\nTo read the full article, please visit the Summit Daily website by clicking here.\n2018 StatsBonnie SmithMarket Stats and TrendsMarket TrendsREALTORS in the newsStats and TrendsSummitSummit CountySummit Daily",

I really love the character interaction. With that being said, I'm not really into strategy games and would prefer a game more like KOTOR. But it's still a pretty good game. Violence: Star Wars is known for its action, but it's also known to be fairly mild. Blasters are routinely used to shoot at enemies; when you go into battle, you kill enemies and your character can die, but it's not graphic in any way (no blood is seen, for example).",

        "title": "What are my college savings options?",
        "raw_content": "Home > Services > College Savings\nFor most of us, our biggest financial concern is paying for our children\u2019s extremely expensive; and in todays competitive environment, an almost mandatory college education.\nThe estimated cost for a 4-year public college education would be around $250,000, or $500,000 for a private school. One way to address this concern is to start thinking about saving for college the moment you find out their is a little one on the way.\nHere are a few potential ways we help clients save for this significant future expense.\nFor the 2014/2015 college year, the average annual cost of attendance (known as the COA) at a four-year public college for in-state students is $23,410, the average cost at a four-year public college for out-of-state students is $37,229, and the average cost at a four-year private college is $46,272. The COA figure includes tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, transportation, and personal expenses. (Source: The College Board's 2014 Trends in College Pricing Report.)\n529 College Savings Plan \u2013 Probably the most popular method to save for college. This investment savings vehicle operates similar to IRA and 401(k) plans, by allowing parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and even friends to save for a child's education tax-free through an array of investment options. The contributions are NOT tax deductible in California but the gains inside the account are tax-deferred, and as long as the funds are used to pay for qualified tuition expenses, parents can withdraw the proceeds tax-free.\nGeneral Brokerage Account \u2013 This type of account allows you to purchase stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other investments by buying or selling investments you believe will increase in value over time. All brokerages give you the option of setting up automatic monthly withdrawals, which will transfer an amount you specify each month from your savings or checking account to your brokerage account. This can be an easy way to start building up your savings for the future and then when your child goes away to school, you sell the various investments to cover their expenses.\nCash Value Life Insurance - A permanent life insurance policy with fixed annual premiums that generally allows you to borrow against its cash value. Interest rates on such loans are usually reasonable, and many allow you to make payments on a flexible schedule. Your insurance premiums accumulate tax-deferred, and the cash value can be withdrawn or borrowed tax-free to pay for higher education. However, the amount of the outstanding loan decreases the death benefit. And, since life insurance is typically purchased, as financial protection for your family should you die, borrowing against your policy will leave your family with less money in the event of your death.\nThis list is a high level view of some available savings and investment options to help you pay for a college education. As you consider the various options, keep in mind that each vehicle has positives and negatives. Be sure to educate yourself on how they each work. Your particular situation may be more appropriate for one type of investment versus another.\nSaving for college can be challenging. Finding the right savings vehicle is crucial for your loved one\u2019s future and for your family\u2019s well being until that bill arrives.",

        "title": "3 Forgiveness - Living out the Gospel - COMPTU",
        "raw_content": "How can we forgive people who have done us wrong? What does that look like and why should we? As I live out the Gospel, I recognize the examples set forth by my Lord. He modeled the \"right\" Christian behavior He expects of His disciples even today. He did this all of the way to the cross and up to His last breath.\nJesus said, \u201cFather, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.\u201d And they divided up His clothes by casting lots. The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at Him. They said, \u201cHe saved others; let Him save Himself if He is God\u2019s Messiah, the Chosen One.\u201d The soldiers also came up and mocked Him. They offered Him wine vinegar and said, \u201cIf You are the king of the Jews, save Yourself.\u201d There was a written notice above Him, which read: this is the king of the Jews. One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at Him: \u201cAren\u2019t You the Messiah? Save Yourself and us!\u201d But the other criminal rebuked him. \u201cDon\u2019t you fear God,\u201d he said, \u201csince you are under the same sentence? We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.\u201d Then he said, \u201cJesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.\u201d Jesus answered him, \u201cTruly I tell you, today you will be with Me in paradise.\u201d \u2014 Luke 23:34-43\nJesus had been betrayed by one of His own disciples for thirty pieces of silver. He was arrested, interrogated, and tried with made-up evidence by the Jewish ruling council. Peter had denied Him 3 times, and Pontius Pilate and Herod Antipas had questioned Him. He had been whipped profusely, mocked, struck and spat upon; and, He was paraded around for the amusement of those onlookers. A crown of thorns was put upon His head. Not only that, but He had to carry the instrument of His own execution on his back. The cross. If we imagine ourselves in Jesus\u2019 position, looking down at the crowd whose schemes and strategies had put us there, what would our first words be? Would they be words of mercy and grace? Probably not.\nThe words that fell from Jesus\u2019 lips were: \u201cFather, forgive them.\u201d Imagine that. Instead of asking God to give His killers what they deserved, Jesus asked Him to give complete forgiveness. Jesus did not condone their actions and He did not deny their guilt. What He did do was recognize that they didn\u2019t understand the gravity of what they were doing. The Jews thought Jesus was a blasphemer; the Romans thought they were punishing yet another criminal. No one understood that they were committing the vilest crime in the history of the world: they were crucifying the Son of God. But what did Jesus do? Jesus interceded on behalf of the people who were torturing Him, and at Golgotha He modeled the words He had shared again and again that we are to\ndemonstrate as followers of Jesus:\nLove your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. \u2014 Matthew 5:44\nAnd that\u2019s what He continues to do endlessly from His thrown. Jesus is not accusing us but is standing as our advocate and interceding on our behalf. All other priests, past and present who would intercede for man, have and will die. Jesus is the Lamb who was slain \u2014 our Great High Priest who could atone for our sins, once and for all. That\u2019s why the writer of Hebrews said,\nThe former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God. And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without any oath, but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him: \u201cThe Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: \u2018You are a priest forever.\u2019\u201d Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant. Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. Therefore, he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. Such a high priest truly meets our need\u2014one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself. \u2014 Hebrews 7:18-27\n1 John 1:9 \u2014 tells us, \"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.\"\nJesus has a permanent priesthood because He is eternal and He also lives to intercede for His children. It is comforting knowing that Jesus intercedes for me and has the power to forgive me. How can I therefore withhold forgiveness to another? The simple answer is, I can't.",

        "raw_content": "A courtesan as a landmarkImperia statue\nStanding nine metres tall and weighing at 18 tonnes, the Imperia statue by local artist Peter Lenk has been a focus of discussion ever since it was erected, in particular the naked figures she holds in her hands. Imperia holds aloft King Sigismund in her right hand and Martin V, the Pope elected by the Council of Constance, in her left. Lenk portrays them as grotesque figures who have unlawfully taken possession of the insignias of power.\nThe brainchild of the former Constance Tourist Information Office (now the MTK) and the artist himself, the statue was created without the use of public money and financed by sponsors. At the time, the erection of the statue caused a heated public debate, and even the world's media reported on it. Since then, the Imperia statue has become one of the most popular destinations for tourists in Constance. It establishes a literary connection to French romantic novelist Honor\u00e9 de Balzac's stories of the \"beautiful Imeria\" at the time of the Council of Constance\" (1414 - 1418), even if, according to literary historian Professor Helmut Weidhase, Imperia is said to have lived between 1455 and 1511.\nTIP: Guided tour \"Auf den Spuren des Konzils\"\nThere still are many places of interest that bear witness of the Council of Constance of 600 years ago, the only time a pope was elected north of the Alps. The guided tour \"Auf den Spuren des Konzils - Von P\u00e4psten, Ketzern, Kurtisanen\" delves into history of the Council on visits on the Imperia statue, the Council of Constance building, the Hus stone and other, less well-known settings of this momentous event.",

Deane (September Term, 2006, Case No. 44), upholding the constitutionality of the Maryland law that \u201c[o]nly a marriage between a man and a woman is valid in this State\u201d (Family Law Article, Section 2-201). The Court of Appeals by a 4-3 vote, rejected the plaintiffs\u2019 arguments that the Maryland law violated both the State Equal Rights Amendment (Article 46) and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Court also rejected the argument that there is a \u201cfundamental right\u201d to same-sex marriage.[1]\nAround the country, those who follow the development of gay rights and the effort of gays to secure the right to same-sex marriage had been waiting anxiously for almost a year for the Court of Appeals to rule. Several other states have weighed in on this issue, and except for Massachusetts,[2] all have upheld state marriage laws that restrict marriage to opposite- sex couples. In late 2006, New York\u2019s high court ruled on this issue;[3] and the Maryland Court followed that court\u2019s holding on the main points. Also in 2006, the Supreme Court of New Jersey came down with a ruling that upheld traditional marriage, but ordered its state legislature to create within 180 days a new law providing civil unions for gay partners.[4] But the vast majority of states that have addressed the issue, have resolved it much like the Maryland Court of Appeals. Judge Glen Harrell\u2019s majority opinion gives a thorough treatment of all the key issues.[5]\nEven though Circuit Court Judge Brooke Murdock had ruled in favor of plaintiffs (Deane et al, appellees), it was still the plaintiffs who had the greater burden on appeal because the appeal was primarily based upon questions of law rather than questions of fact; and the established law was not on plaintiffs\u2019 side. If Deane et al were to prevail, the Court of Appeals would have to depart from traditional interpretations of the applicable law. Those around the country who have followed this issue saw the possibility that Maryland might depart from traditional interpretations because of its long history of recognizing and legislating rights and benefits for gays. But while Maryland was certainly at the forefront of such national trends, this history had a flip side that argued against the plaintiffs because for the last 30+ years, almost every time the Maryland Legislature would pass a law extending special rights to gays, the Legislature would also pass a disclaimer that specifically qualified the application of such rights\u2014that the bestowal of new rights was not to be construed in any way to affect the Maryland law that limits marriage to only a man and a woman. Thus, while Maryland was at the forefront in recognizing rights for gays, the State also made it specifically clear from the outset that both the State ERA and the bestowal of state rights for gays did not extend to a right to same-sex marriage.\nMaryland\u2019s ERA.\nWith that background, when the case came before the Court of Appeals, the State\u2019s history of recognizing gay rights was of only limited value\u2014it was a double-edged sword, so to speak. The Court first addressed whether the marriage statute\u2019s prohibition of same-sex marriages violated the State ERA. The Court had never before construed the ERA to invalidate the statute restricting marriage to opposite-sex couples. And the majority opinion again declined to do so.\nStandard of Review.\nThe next major issue addressed in Judge Harrell\u2019s opinion was which of the three levels of scrutiny to apply to the Maryland law\u2014strict scrutiny, intermediate scrutiny, or rational basis review.[6] The Court made a lengthy analysis of and rejected plaintiffs\u2019 (appellees\u2019) arguments that gays were a protected class, that heightened or strict scrutiny was warranted, and that there existed a fundamental right to marry someone of the same sex. By a 4-3 vote, the Court found no \u201cprotected class,\u201d no \u201csuspect criteria\u201d and no \u201cfundamental right\u201d; and the Court therefore ruled that strict scrutiny was not proper. The Court also failed to find a basis to apply the intermediate (or heightened) scrutiny.[7]The Court held that the rational basis standard was the proper one (Conaway, p. 96).\nTo satisfy the minimal, \u201crational basis\u201d test, \u201ca statute reviewed under the rational basis test enjoys a strong presumption of constitutionality, [and] can be invalidated only if the classification is without any reasonable basis and is purely arbitrary\u201d Conaway, at 97, citing Whiting-Turner Contract Co. v. Coupard, 304 Md. 340, 352 (1985). As long as the court can find any conceivable reasonable basis for the statute, it will pass muster. Thereafter, predictably, the Court found that there existed a rational basis for the disparate treatment.[8] The Court held that \u201cthe State\u2019s legitimate interest in fostering procreation and encouraging the traditional family structure in which children are born\u201d is an adequate and proper basis to supports limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples.[9] Judge Battaglia, in her dissent, argued that the statute should be subject to strict scrutiny (not rational basis scrutiny), and she further stated that she would have remanded the case for a thorough hearing on the issue of whether or not the State could meet the burden to show that it had a compelling interest to justify the discriminatory treatment.[10]\nThe Equal Protection Clause.\nIn determining whether the Equal Protection Clause has been violated, if a challenged law affects a \u201cprotected class,\u201d then the Maryland statute could be upheld only if the state had a \u201ccompelling interest\u201d to justify the disparate treatment, and only if the court would \u201cstrictly scrutinize\u201d the statute and the state interests to make sure that the stringent test had been satisfied. But, if no protected class and no suspect criteria is involved, then the Maryland statute need only satisfy the rational basis test (as explained above). Appellees\u2019 argument that strict scrutiny must be applied was based primarily upon the argument that the marriage law discriminated against a class of people; and they argued that Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1 (1967) supported this view.[11] But the majority disagreed and held that the Virginia law in Loving was blatant \u201canti-black legislation\u201d and that the rule articulated in Loving was a prohibition from subordinate treatment of either women to men or men to women, as a class.[12] The majority applied the traditional, most widely accepted interpretation of Loving\u2014that it prohibits classifying males or females as a class in the absence of a compelling state interest. Accordingly, because the Maryland marriage restriction applies to males the same way it applies to females, therefore the statute does not impinge upon the rights of any protected class.[13]\nThe Fundamental Right Argument.\nThe remaining major issue in the case was whether or not there existed a \u201cfundamental right\u201d of one person to marry another person of the same sex. To start with, it was acknowledged by all that there is a fundamental right to marry. But the definition of that right was subject to dispute. Deane et al argued that the fundamental right to marry included the right to marry someone of the same sex. But the State countered that the fundamental right to marry has always been limited by the traditional meaning of marriage\u2014that it is between a man and a woman, and that therefore the right to marry has always been limited to the right to marry someone of the opposite sex. The latter interpretation was adopted by the majority.\nThe majority opinion in Conaway v. Deane is 110 pages in length, and the three dissenting opinions added another 130 pages. (Judge Bell concurred with both Judge Battaglia and with part of Judge Raker\u2019s opinion; then Judge Bell added a brief dissent of his own for good measure.) With that many pages of reasoning and rhetoric, one could certainly identify other important parts of the opinions that I have failed to address. And it is not expected that this ruling will end all debate of this important social issue. I don\u2019t think anyone is predicting that the issue is now settled. In Maryland, I would predict that the next forum for this debate will be in the Legislature, where in 2008 I expect to see both a bill to amend the Constitution to restrict marriage to a man and a woman, and opposing bills to both legitimize same-sex marriage and to authorize civil unions for same-sex couples. On that point it is of interest to note that there is now pending before the Supreme Court of California, several \u201cMarriage cases,\u201d which have been combined together, and in which that Court is being asked to rule on the constitutionality of California Referendum No. 22, where the voters rejected civil unions and voted to restrict marriage to only opposite-sex couples.[14]\n[2] Goodridge v. Dep\u2019t of Public Health, 798 N.E.2d 941 (Mass. 2003).\n[3] Hernandez v. Robles 855 N.E.2d 1 (N.Y. 2006).\n[4] Lewis v. Harris, 908 A.2d 196, 200 (N.J. 2006). The Vermont Supreme Court had ruled similarly in 1999. Baker v. State, 744 A.2d 864 (1999).\n[5] At the circuit court level, Judge Murdock had based her ruling on Article 46 (the state ERA) and on the Equal Protection Clause, but not on the basis of a \u201cfundamental right.\u201d The Court could have declined to deal with any issues other than those that were addressed by Judge Murdock. But at the outset of the majority opinion, Judge Harrell explained that the Court would be addressing other issues that are relevant, including the fundamental rights issue.\n[6] Conaway, pp. 43-47. At these pages Judge Harrell identified the three types of scrutiny, and then proceeded to discuss which level of scrutiny was warranted to address the Maryland statute.\n[7] With regard to the intermediate level of review, the Court addressed the issue of whether or not homosexuality was innate, and implied that if it were that the Court might apply either strict scrutiny or heightened scrutiny. But the Court, after examining various scientific studies on the issue, specifically declined to find homosexuality to be an immutable characteristic. Conaway, pp. 66-70.\n[8] Of the dissenting Judges, Chief Judge Bell and Judge Battaglia argued that strict scrutiny was warranted. Judge Raker agreed with the majority, that the rational basis test should be applied (Conaway, Raker, J., dissenting, at p. 5). However, Judge Raker went on to argue that the Maryland statute could not withstand rational basis scrutiny. While Chief Judge Bell argued that \u201cstrict scrutiny\u201d applied, he nevertheless concurred with Judge Raker\u2019s analysis that the statute failed to meet the rational basis test. I would submit that Judge Raker\u2019s application of the rational basis analysis is a major departure from the traditional interpretation and application of that test.\n[9] Conaway, pp. 98 and 109.\n[10] Conaway, Battaglia, J., dissenting, at p. 80. Judge Battaglia correctly pointed out that the case had not yet fully developed and explored: \u201cNeither party has explored this issue in the depth appropriate to an issue of such permanent, transcendent magnitude.\u201d Id. Of course, the case was decided on the basis of summary judgment motions, and the court had only been presented sparse evidence on sociological and societal impact of various child-rearing possibilities, and therefore the court was not in a position where it could properly rule on the compelling interest issue.\n[11] Conaway, pp. 37-41. In Loving the Supreme Court held unconstitutional a Virginia Miscegenation statute that prohibited marriages between blacks and whites.\n[13] Appellees argued that the Court of Appeals had previously ruled in Giffin v. Crane, 351 Md. 133, 716 A.2d 1029 (1998), that if a law makes sex a factor in a legal distinction, then the state ERA is violated. However, Judge Harrell pointed out that a review of the reasoning of Giffin in its context made it clear that the Court was speaking of distinctions between men and women as classes. Conaway, at 27. Judge Harrell pointed out that his conclusion is supported by the majority of the federal and state courts that have addressed this issue, including the Court of Appeal of Washington, that stated in Singer v. Hara,522 P.2d1186 (Wash. App. 1974) that to interpret an ERA in a way that requires states to permit same-sex marriages \u201cwould be to subvert the purpose for which the ERA was enacted.\u201d Id., at 1194. The three dissenting Judges (Chief Judge Bell, Judge Raker and Judge Battaglia) all agreed with Judge Murdock that this interpretation is erroneous; they argued that since the law prohibits someone from marrying another based upon the sex of the partner, that this is sexual discrimination that violates both the State ERA and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.\n[14] That case if both interesting and important. The State\u2019s Attorney General argued successfully against Referendum 22 at the first appellate level, where that court ruled that the Referendum was unconstitutional. The issue in California involves some of the same issues covered by the 2006 New Jersey case (Lewis v. Harris, 908 A.2d 196, 200 (N.J. 2006) ) and the 1999 Vermont case (Baker v. State, 744 A.2d 864 (1999)).\nTraditional Marriage is Best for Rearing Children Roger Brooke Taney Bust",

G-quadruplexes in the transcriptome have recently emerged as relevant regulatory elements of gene expression. Conformational transitions in RNA molecules offer an important way to regulate their biological functions. Here we report on the competition between a canonical hairpin structure and a G-quadruplex structure within an RNA molecule. We show that the conformational preference strongly depends on the relative amounts of mono- and divalent metal ions present in solution. In our system, the G-quadruplex, whose formation is not predicted by available predictive RNA folding programs, is the major conformer at physiologically relevant K(+) and Mg(2+) concentrations. Furthermore, we show that a synthetic small molecule can displace the structural dynamic equilibrium in favor of the hairpin conformer. This work highlights a new and important level of complexity in RNA folding that could be relevant to the biological functions and targeting of RNAs comprising G-quadruplex motifs.\nhttp://doi.org/10.1021/ja308665g",

        "raw_content": "Glamour Duck Achieves Stardom On Wildlife Stamp\nSales of duck stamp aid conservation\nThey call it the \"Olympics of wildlife art,\" but this year's Federal Duck Stamp Art Contest seemed more like a beauty pageant, right down to the last \"... and the envelope please.\"\nThe winning entry makes it onto the 1998 duck stamp, which was legislated in 1934 to purchase threatened habitat for migrating birds. In addition to a hunting license, hunters are required to purchase annually a $15 duck stamp. The stamps have raised more than $500 million to acquire 4.5 million acres of wetlands.\nThis year's contestants could choose from three species of duck: the 47-shades-of-brown mottled duck, the all's-black-but-the-bill black scoter, or the dazzling Barrow's goldeneye. Named after Sir John Barrow - geographer, explorer, and secretary to the British Admiralty - Barrow's goldeneye has white flanks, a dark back, a glossy purple head, and Liz Taylor eyes, only yellow. Nearly 70 percent of this year's 382 contestants chose to paint the glamour duck.\nEntries featured diving ducks, dabbling ducks, cuddling ducks, and flying ducks, as well as the classic noble duck at dawn. But it's not enough for these ducks to be beautiful: They also need to look good on a 1-1/2-by-2-inch stamp.\n\"One of the hardest things in judging this contest is to realize that some paintings look wonderful on a wall, but don't make a good stamp. You can't have the background compete with the ducks,\" says Donald Stokes, one of five judges in the competition, which was held Nov. 4-6.\nEntries are judged on clarity of line as well as the artist's understanding of birds and their habitats. Too many feathers or The right color in the wrong place or too many feathers are enough to drop a painting out of competition. Judges also study projections of each entry through a magnifying glass to evaluate how designs work in miniature.\nThere were few doubts about this year's winner - a stunning acrylic of a Barrow's goldeneye by San Francisco artist Robert Steiner, who won this contest on his 17th try. The artist has also won 41 state duck-stamp competitions, a record in wildlife art and enough to earn him the sobriquet \"Mr. Duck\" and \"the King of Ducks\" by duck-art insiders.\n\"What I've learned is that you need a bird that stands out,\" Mr. Steiner said in a phone interview, \"and the Barrow's goldeneye has the ultimate contrast of value. When you put the pure white and pure black of the bird against a middle-gray background, the colors pop. The bird also has a beautiful purple iridescence on the head and that golden eye.\"\nSteiner placed No. 3 with a similar painting of a Barrow's goldeneye in this competition two years ago. He says he refined his brushstrokes in this later version, tightened up his treatment of the head and chest of the bird, and produced the best reflections and water droplets (on plumage) of his career.\n\"This duck will jump off a stamp,\" Mr. Stokes says. \"We hope it will make more people want to buy the stamps and make more money for conservation.\"\nDuck stamps and related duck caps, T-shirts, mugs, calendars, blankets, and limited-edition prints were of interest mainly to hunters, who have been one of the most powerful national lobbies in favor of preserving wetlands and combating water pollution. Duck hunters alarmed by the drop in waterfowl populations during the Dust Bowl era in the 1930s supported user-fee legislation and the creation of an annual duck stamp (then $1) as a way to protect breeding, feeding, and resting grounds for threatened birds. Hunting groups such as Ducks Unlimited also privately raised more than $1 billion to preserve wetlands in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.\nBut recently, conservationists and collectors have taken a greater interest in duck stamps, and their purchases now account for about 10 percent of sales. The US Fish and Wildlife Service expects that interest from collectors will be higher this year, because for the first time the duck stamp will be self-adhesive.\nIn 1996, nearly 63 million Americans spent $31 billion observing, feeding, and photographing wildlife of all kinds, according to a new study by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, to be released later this month. While 3 million hunters shoot ducks and other migratory birds, some 14.3 million people prefer to watch or feed them.\n\"Bird-watching now ranks just behind gardening as the No. 1 favorite American pastime, and [it's] gaining,\" says Lillian Stokes, also a judge in the competition. Last month, Donald and Lillian Stokes, top-selling nature authors, launched a PBS television series called \"Bird Watch.\"\nDucks are now more popular than songbirds as the object of all that watching, according to the Fish and Wildlife study.\nIt's hard not to love a duck. Four marching mallards from the Peabody Orlando Hotel in Florida nearly stole the opening of this year's duck stamp competition, as they waddled and grunted their way past judges and spectators. The march is a variation of their daily strut to and from the signature Peabody hotel fountain.\n\"Ducks are creatures of habit,\" says Peabody duck trainer Mark Hirchert. \"We can train them to march in about 30 days. And tourists line up to see it.\"\nDuck-caller Sean Mann from Towson, Md., insists that it's more than a cute waddle that draws people to ducks. \"You can communicate with ducks. The effect of a good call on waterfowl is incredible. Sometimes a flock far away will turn as if they've hit a brick wall,\" says Mr. Mann, whose championship quacks from his own handcrafted calls led off this year's event.\n\"Of course, I don't really know what I'm saying to them. It's probably, 'Free Corn!' or 'It's safe down here!' but it sounds like 'Quack! Quack!' \" he adds.\n\"Ducks are one of the true wild species that we can see in our own cities and suburbs, and that's why people relate to them,\" says artist Steiner.\nThe duck population dipped to its lowest recorded ebb in the 1980s, but has been on the rise through the 1990s. This year promises to be one of the biggest migrations since officials started keeping count in 1955. This fall's flight is projected at 89.5 million.\nBiologists credit conservation measures and lots of rain on duck breeding grounds on the prairie for the turnaround. \"Millions of acres of wetlands have been restored in the past decade,\" says John Rogers, deputy director of the US Fish and Wildlife Service.\nExperts say that the 100 million bird goal of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan, a cooperative waterfowl recovery strategy by the US, Canada, and Mexico, is now well within reach.\nAnd a little stamp had something to do with it.\nDuck Dynasty guns?

The area is perhaps best known for the \"Battle of Paoli\" in 1777, during which the British military launched a sneak attack on American forces. The construction of the Main Ine of Public Works in PA brought a great deal more commerce to the region, allowing it to grow and thrive over the decades following the late 19th century. Paoli was the last stop along the Main Line of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and it became a popular place to settle down and raise a family for individuals who worked in the city. The region has remained fairly affluent, and now boasts a median household income of $69,519 amongst its 5,425 individual residents. Residents of Paoli undertake a number of outdoor hardscaping and landscaping jobs through a variety of local contractors. Those contractors rely on the superior products at our Phoenixville landscape supply store to complete their jobs on-time and to a high degree of excellency.",

        "title": "Common Misconceptions About Outsourcing That Need Debunking",
        "raw_content": "It\u2019s 2018, the outsourcing industry is booming, and yet there are still persistent misconceptions that make a lot of business owners hesitant to try it out. Though it\u2019s true that offshoring comes with a few risks, finding the right BPO (business process outsourcing) company to partner with makes it worth your investment. We\u2019ve compiled the most popular myths about outsourcing and dishing out the truth behind it.\nOutsourcing is expensive and unnecessary\nHiring an offshore staff isn\u2019t mandatory if you can manage to get by with your current in-house teams. However, if you want to efficiently grow your business, outsourcing is a great option because it allows you to hire more people without straining your budget. Offshoring promises savings and depending on the BPO company you sign up with, there may be other charges that are added on top of the \u201ccheap\u201d labour fees. The misconception that states outsourcing being expensive and falsely advertised as a method to save on wages comes from reported isolated cases of BPO companies that take advantage of their clients. It\u2019s best to check honest client reviews first before partnering up with an outsourcing firm.\nAnother reason for this myth is because most offshore staffing services need operational fees to fully set up your team. These additional fees are either fixed or incident-based, and still is cheaper than you purchasing new equipment or tech that is not readily available for your in-house team. At best, outsourcing is a great investment as long as the company you are partnering with provides you with good service and no hidden charges.\nSince labour is cheap, you only get what you pay for\nYou\u2019ve probably read outsourcing horror stories online that goes like this: Client is in need of a service, compares rates between a professional freelancer and an outsourcing company. The client then chooses an outsourcing company because it\u2019s cheaper, but then gives him an under-qualified staff that took twice as long and ended up being twice as expensive as the professional\u2019s rates. There are two main reasons why such things happen: first is that not all BPOs offer interactive hiring processes, especially contact centres. This results in a mismatch of staffing and the service required. Second is that some clients jump on to business process outsourcing without doing preliminary research first, signing up for the cheapest service and forget to read the fine print. When deliberating offshoring partners, make sure to opt for organizations that offer collaborative planning and transitioning processes. That way, you get to be part of selecting the staff who will render you the service.\nYou don\u2019t have any control over your team\nWhile this misconception isn\u2019t entirely wrong, it is only true to some extent. Again, this depends on the terms your outsourcing partner offers you. Contact centres often manage employees on their own, leaving the client alienated from their offshore team. Other outsourcing companies, including DBOS, work differently: we are always encouraging constant connection between clients and their offshore team through regular communication via chat or video calls on Skype. When looking for partners, make sure that the outsourcing company will let you manage your team and will include you in vital decision-making processes regarding your offshore staff.\nOnly big companies can afford to outsource\nHere at DBOS, this is the perception we are striving to change. People think only corporate giants can outsource. Hiring an offshore staff can now be an option for small to medium enterprises. The goal of offshoring is to help entrepreneurs save on different aspects of their business processes, and should be made available to all companies of any scale. Outsourcing is now affordable and efficient, putting to rest this common misconception.\nCultural differences will hinder operations\nBarriers in communication are bound to exist when you work with people who are from another country and of a different culture. However, this doesn\u2019t mean that these differences cannot be resolved. One way to close this gap is to find outsourcing companies in countries which have similar work ethics and practices as yours, or offshoring to countries that speak the same language. This problem can also be easily solved by hiring an advisor to help guide you in communicating with your offshore team.\nThese are only a few of the common misconceptions people think of whenever outsourcing is mentioned.

However, it is essential for your product or service to appeal to the lifestyle of the students. Additionally, student ambassadors should be utilized to spread the word about your product or service to their friends and classmates. Many students are cash-strapped, nowadays. Nevertheless, their purchasing power is very high. Research reveals that 20 million students in the US have a combined disposable income of $417 billion. Moreover, another survey of students' parents reveals that students now make 70 percent of their purchases themselves. These purchases are often made on credit cards. Therefore, students often have a significantly higher purchasing power. If you have not yet considered this demographic, it is time to reach out to them now! Social media is a popular method for socialization and communication between many young people. Students are the majority users of social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter. These are the right places to introduce brands to young people.It is probably the right place to introduce a brand to them. To capture the student audience, it is essential to be a part of the conversation; it is also important to keep them engaged. Social media is the ideal platform for this. However, studies state that half of these social media savvy youngsters fail to follow brands on social networking sites. Students who do follow often only show temporary, marginal support. Social media is definitely a great platform for engaging students and spreading the word. However, it is definitely not the best for brand introduction and recognition.

        "title": "Dentons - Competition News January 2014",
        "raw_content": "Competition News January 2014\nAnti-generic practices sanctioned again, this time by the French Competition Authority\nRecent events have confirmed the focus of competition authorities in general on the pharmaceutical industry particularly to combat anti-generic practices.\nOn December 10, 2013, the European Commission fined the laboratories Johnson & Johnson and Novartis for delaying the market entry of generics by deploying \u201cpay for delay\u201d tactics.\nOn December 18, 2013, it was the French Competition Authority\u2019s turn, when it sanctioned Schering Plough and Reckitt Benckiser for obstructing the development of a generic of Subutex, a medicine used to treat heroine dependence. Schering Plough was appointed in 1997 by Reckitt Benckiser, the holder of the rights in Subutex, to commercialize it in France on an exclusive basis. However, alarmed by Arrow\u2019s decision to introduce a generic, it adopted a commercial strategy, with the support of Reckitt Benckiser, to slow down the generic\u2019s introduction:\na global structured campaign aimed at healthcare professionals disparaging the generic both before and after it was placed on the market, accompanied by a clear incitement not to use it as a substitute, whereas this campaign was not backed up by any medical or scientific justification:\nin addition to the maximum quantity discounts which could be granted for sales of the branded drug, introduction of a system of supplementary rebates granted to pharmacists, without any economic justification, in exchange for feedback from the pharmacies. These discounts, combined with extended payment times, were intended to encourage pharmacists to stock up on Subutex before the generic arrived.\nThe Authority considered these practices to be not only an abuse of Schering Plough\u2019s dominant position on the market but also an unlawful agreement with Reckitt Benckiser, and thus handed out two fines to Schering Plough plus a 50% increase for belonging to a major group, in very sharp contrast with the 15% coefficient usually applied.\nThis decision has already been commented on in the Authority\u2019s opinion of December 19, 2013, following its sector enquiry into the distribution of medicines to retail pharmacies. The Authority insisted more particularly on the necessity of encouraging the development of generics to counteract their negative image in the public\u2019s eyes. It recommended that the authorities launch information campaigns about generics aimed at patients, pharmacists and practitioners, but also that the laboratories adopt good practices, like the undertakings made by Schering Plough in this case: two years before a patent expires, it will provide specific training to the sales teams to curb any disparagement.\nJanssen Cilag is another laboratory currently involved in a case of disparagement. It is to be hoped that the Authority will use restraint when deciding on the amount of any fines imposed in a pharmaceutical sector already reeling from the collapse of their blockbusters, the reduction in public spending and the slowdown in the end consumption of medicines.\nReform of the European merger control rules\nNew procedural rules came into force on January 1, 2014 for the control of European concentrations. The reform does not modify the system\u2019s foundations but rather targets the implementing texts with the aim of speeding up the review of uncomplicated mergers, particularly by extending the scope of the so-called simplified procedure. After the expectations expressed by Commissioner Almunia, the simplified measures will reduce the administrative constraints and costs to be borne by the notifying undertakings.\nThe simplified procedure, which already existed under the former rules, allows the parties to notify a concentration using a short form and avoid having the Commission carry out a market study. In the reform, the market share thresholds for the simplified procedure have been increased from 25% to 30% for vertical relations between merging parties and from 15% to 20% for concentrations between competitors. The Commission also introduced a simplified procedure for concentrations resulting in a slight increase in market shares and for creations of joint undertakings doing very little business in the European Union. Other transactions also eligible for the simplified procedure are those which not involving competitors or undertakings present on vertically related markets and those comprising a transition from joint to exclusive control. Finally, a \u201csuper-simplified\u201d procedure will apply to the creation of a joint venture which has no business activity in the European Union. The Commission anticipates a 10% increase in simplified procedures, namely 60-70% of the notified concentrations.\nIncreasing the scope of the simplified procedure is certainly welcome, knowing that the criteria for compulsory notification do not include the distinctive elements of cases which are complex in terms of competition. However, some scepticism is allowed as regards the predicted procedural savings and speeding up of the review periods. To demonstrate they are eligible for a simplified procedure, the parties will still have to describe all possible markets, even the most narrowly defined. They will be unable to bypass the pre-notification stage during which the parties obtain the Commission\u2019s approval on the choice of the simplified procedure. This compulsory step will only be able to be avoided for the super-simplified procedure.\nThe D\u00fcsseldorf Regional Court\u2019s dismissal of the action for damages against the cement cartel challenges the business model of Cartel Damage Claims\nIn a judgment of December 17, 2013, the D\u00fcsseldorf Regional Court (Germany) dismissed outright Cartel Damage Claims\u2019 action seeking damages of about 131 million euros brought against the members of the cement cartel. Cartel Damage Claims is a company which buys up the damage receivables of victims of cartels via dedicated entities, which then initiate the necessary litigation to collect them. The consideration for the assignment of the receivable depends on the result obtained. If the action is dismissed, the defendants risk not being able to recover their legal fees, since the entities holding the receivables do not have sufficient assets if the action is unsuccessful. The judges of the merits were therefore of the opinion that this mechanism circumvents the prohibition of a contingent fee contract and is contrary to moral standards, since the entire financial risk of the litigation is transferred to the defendants, with the assignors continuing to be the beneficial owners of the receivables.\nIn view of the importance of the Cartel Damage Claims decision, there is every likelihood that an appeal will be lodged against the December 17, 2013 judgment, thereby reviving the debate about the activities of these companies, which are looking to take advantage of the announced increase in damage claims by victims of anti-competitive practices.",

And probably not to Dustin Johnson, either.\nTed Potter Jr.: From No. 246 in world to Pebble champ This looked like a mismatch to everyone but Potter. And probably not to Dustin Johnson, either. Check out this story on detroitnews.com: http://detne.ws/2H9ov8L\nDoug Ferguson, Associated Press Published 6:40 p.m. ET Feb. 12, 2018 | Updated 6:41 p.m. ET Feb. 12, 2018\nTed Potter Jr. waits to play his shot from the 17th tee during the final round at Pebble Beach on Sunday.(Photo11: Mike Ehrmann / Getty Images)\nPebble Beach, Calif. \u2014 This looked like a mismatch to everyone but Ted Potter Jr.\nPotter turned pro out of high school and worked in a cart barn to help pay the bills and save up for Q-school. He played two-day tournaments to try and earn a few hundred dollars so he could keep going. That\u2019s life on the mini-tours. When he finally made it to the Web.com Tour, he missed the cut in all 24 tournaments he played.\nIn the seven starts before Potter\u2019s first PGA Tour victory, the Greenbrier Classic in 2012, he missed the cut five straight times and didn\u2019t crack the top 50 in the other two. In the nine starts after that victory, he failed to make the cut three times and didn\u2019t crack the top 50 in the other six.\n\u201cI struck the ball well and hit a lot of my targets out there coming in with the pressure on me,\u201d Potter said after closing with a 69 for a three-shot victory. \u201cI knew I had probably a two-shot lead, but you never know what could happen out there. I just hit a lot of quality golf shots coming down the stretch knowing I had to.\u201d\nPlus, because of 25 pro-am teams making the cut to play Sunday, the draw can get a little out of whack. Potter and Johnson played with amateur Sean Kell (Potter\u2019s partner). Ahead of them was a foursome \u2014 three pros and one amateur.\nWaiting was inevitable, and they did it on every hole. That\u2019s a lot of time \u2014 too much time \u2014 to think, especially if you\u2019re a 34-year-old with one PGA Tour victory who had to sit out two full years with a broken ankle that required two surgeries. The first was to insert 12 screws and two plates. The other one was to remove the hardware.\nHe had a two-shot lead that grew to three shots when others made mistakes \u2014 Johnson, Phil Mickelson, Jason Day among them \u2014 and made them catch him.\nAnd they couldn\u2019t.\nJohnson closed with a 72 and wasn\u2019t all that bad. He hit two bad shots on No. 4 and No. 5, one that cost him an easy chance at birdie, the other that made him work for a good bogey. The wind fooled him on No. 8 and he went into a back bunker, leading to a bogey. His approach on the 11th was inches away from a short birdie putt, but hung up in the collar and led to bogey.\n\u201cI\u2019m so happy right now to get it done today, especially against the world No. 1, playing with him today,\u201d Potter said. \u201cThe win here at Pebble is just unbelievable.\u201d\nPotter won for only the second time in 84 starts \u2014 and it was only his fifth top 10. But he had experience winning, no matter the competition. One year on the Hooters Tour, he won three times and earned $180,000. On the mini-tours, that\u2019s enough to feel like a millionaire.\nDefending champion Jordan Spieth said before the tournament that the quality of champions can make some victories even more special. In Potter\u2019s case, the final leaderboard can make it even better. Johnson, Day and Mickelson were among those who tied for second. They have combined for 70 victories on the PGA Tour and six majors. Also in the mix was Chez Reavie, who lost in a playoff the week before in Phoenix.\nThat\u2019s what makes winning so hard.\nOn any given day, the pedigree doesn\u2019t matter. Neither do the credentials. Shots have to be hit. Scores have to be posted.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI didn\u2019t decide to become anorexic. It snuck up on me disguised as a healthy diet, a professional attitude. Being as thin as possible was a way to make the job of being an actress easier . . .\u201d\nPortia de Rossi weighed only 82 pounds when she collapsed on the set of the Hollywood film in which she was playing her first leading role. This should have been the culmination of all her years of hard work\u2014first as a child model in Australia, then as a cast member of one of the hottest shows on American television. On the outside she was thin and blond, glamorous and successful. On the inside, she was literally dying.\nIn this searing, unflinchingly honest book, Portia de Rossi captures the complex emotional truth of what it is like when food, weight, and body image take priority over every other human impulse or action. She recounts the elaborate rituals around eating that came to dominate hours of every day, from keeping her daily calorie intake below 300 to eating precisely measured amounts of food out of specific bowls and only with certain utensils. When this wasn\u2019t enough, she resorted to purging and compulsive physical exercise, driving her body and spirit to the breaking point.\nEven as she rose to fame as a cast member of the hit television shows Ally McBeal and Arrested Development, Portia alternately starved herself and binged, all the while terrified that the truth of her sexuality would be exposed in the tabloids. She reveals the heartache and fear that accompany a life lived in the closet, a sense of isolation that was only magnified by her unrelenting desire to be ever thinner. With the storytelling skills of a great novelist and the eye for detail of a poet, Portia makes transparent as never before the behaviors and emotions of someone living with an eating disorder.\nFrom her lowest point, Portia began the painful climb back to a life of health and honesty, falling in love with and eventually marrying Ellen DeGeneres, and emerging as an outspoken and articulate advocate for gay rights and women\u2019s health issues.\nIn this remarkable and beautifully written work, Portia shines a bright light on a dark subject. A crucial book for all those who might sometimes feel at war with themselves or their bodies, Unbearable Lightness is a story that inspires hope and nourishes the spirit.\n\u201cWritten with artistry, compelling insight and lucid frankness, [Unbearable Lightness] offers solid hope and inducement to initiate the odyssey toward self-knowledge and acceptance.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Mary Lupo \u2013 2014 & 2015 New Orleans Winner in Dermatology\nCongratulations, Dr. Lupo. You are the first recipient of New Orleans Doctors\u2019 Choice Awards in Dermatology 2014! What are your thoughts on being the first winner?\nWell it is always nice to be the first. I think what\u2019s more important is that you\u2019re chosen by your peers around the country and that\u2019s always a very nice thing.\nDr. Lupo, how significant or how essential is it for dermatologists to belong to a professional association or organization as they continue to practice?\nWell, being a member of organizations such as the American Academy of Dermatology or the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery means that it gives you access to your peers; that you can go to meetings and learn more about the advances in your practice and in your specialty.\nYou have received great reviews from other leaders in the medical industry. What would you like to tell them?\nWell, thank you. I think that a lot of the people who reviewed me are people that are equally impressive, and we know each other because we\u2019ve shared the podium over the years at various meetings or we\u2019ve been on clinical studies together for FDA approval of new materials and drugs, or they\u2019ve actually spent time in my office in the form of doing mentorships or Pre-sector ships which I do quite a bit of through the WDS and the ASDS.\nIs there anything you\u2019ve actually like to tell them?\nIt motivates me to continue to do more and better things. It always keeps you engaged in your profession when you interact with other people who keep you doing your best.\nI understand that you teach medical students and other training practitioners while also participating in clinical research on new products in your field. How do you think these dual roles help set you apart?\nWell I spent quite a bit of time training residents, and through a CME meeting called the cosmetic boot camp, of which I am founding co-director, I had the opportunity to meet literally hundreds of other physicians around the country and around the world. I really feel that when you teach it forces you to stay at the very top of your game, and it keeps me stimulated. It allows me to do the very best for my own patients as I\u2019m training the next generation.\nHow did you get into the field of dermatology?\nI was interested in dermatology since I was a 16 year old. I had to go to a dermatologist and I thought it was a very intriguing field. Once I got into medical school, what drew me to dermatology was the variety. I\u2019m a person that really needs variety. I love the fact that I can take care of all age groups in dermatology, that my practice for years was a blended practice of medical and aesthetic, and although I\u2019m mostly aesthetic and cosmetic these days, I still had to deal with acne, rosacea, and pigmentation problems. So it\u2019s variety that I crave and constant stimulation. Dermatology has been so ever evolving and we really have been at the forefront of the non-surgical skin rejuvenation. And since 1983, as a chief resident I\u2019ve been very much a part of that transition and evolution.\nWas there a specific moment that you wanted to be a dermatologist?\nWell when I decided to go and really take the branch of cosmetic dermatology was really in 1983. I was a chief resident at Tulane and we were learning how to do dermabrasion. Dermabrasion is a very aggressive technique to resurface severely acne scarred skin. And I learned at a meeting about a newly FDA approved product called Zyderm and ZyPlast, which were the very first FDA approved dermal fillers and they were injected underneath the skin to improve the contours. And I went to the acting chief at dermatology at Tulane, Dr. Larry Milikan, and I said, you know Dr. Milikan I really want to learn how to do these injectable fillers while I\u2019m a resident, because I really think this is going to be a trend. And I want Tulane to be at the forefront. So I actually started a clinic when I was chief resident where we did Zyderm and ZyPlast, we did light chemical peels and we were doing sclerotheraphy for leg vein injections. So we really began to do these non-invasive procedures very early on. And then when I finished in 1984, I continued on for 30 years I was the director at the clinic for the residents. And then in 2005 Dr. Vic Narurkar, Dr. Kenneth Beer, and I started the cosmetic boot camp and we basically bought their tradition of injectable teachings, because by that time we had a number of other fillers and we had neuromodulation with Botox products, and we had very interesting lasers. So we began to have more tools that we could really make meaningful differences in people\u2019s appearance non-surgically. So we started cosmetic boot camp in order to advocate for non- surgical rejuvenation, and begin to teach another generation of younger doctors the techniques.\nI love your commitment to continuing education. What postgraduate programs do you work with, and what advice do you have for other dermatologists with regard to continuing education?\nContinuing medical education is essential in order to keep you at the forefront of your profession. It doesn\u2019t matter what your specialty is, you must do continuing medical education because medicine is ever evolving. Regarding my other activities, besides training the residents in Tulane, I actually have preceptorships at my office and accept residents that apply for preceptor grants from the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery as well as the Women\u2019s Dermatological Society. And through notoriety, I\u2019ve actually had practicing physicians from as far away as India come spend time in my office to learn my non-surgical injection techniques.\nWhat skin conditions are commonly treated in your office?\nWell, the vast majority of my patients come to me for injections. For dermal fillers, for global volumization, for improved skin texture, for improvement of dynamic wrinkles. I use a combination of injectable materials and laser energy devices such as radio frequency and ultrasound devices, as well as laser pulsed light devices, in order to make meaningful differences but natural differences in how people look. My goal is always to make patient feel better about how they look to give them a sense of empowerment and to make them feel active. I also want my patients to feel, when they look in the mirror that they just look like a better version of themselves. I don\u2019t ever want a patient to look weird or different. So, I\u2019m a poster child I think for understanding that the normal average woman just wants to look like the very best version that she can possibly look, and that\u2019s what I try to deliver to my patients every day.\nYou are a master at testing the latest aesthetic procedures in skin rejuvenation. What skills do you think have been important to your success?\nI think curiosity about things has been very important to my success. I think a constant desire to learn, a constant desire to get better every day, and I am never a person who would be comfortable resting on her laurels. I feel like every day is an opportunity for me to make a difference in a patient\u2019s life. To make them feel better about themselves and how they look and feel about themselves and the face that they project to the world. So it is very gratifying to have patients come back and tell me how happy I made them when they went to that special event and they were glowing and looked good, and they feel better about themselves.\nRunning a highly successful and respected dermatology practice such as yours must take considerable leadership skills. What three leadership techniques do you think are most important in a medical practice?\nI think the number one thing is to listen. I think you must listen to your patients, and you must listen to your employees. Communication is key! You know I think that without communication you can\u2019t really deliver a good job for your patients. And the office in general will fall short of what you can achieve if there\u2019s not good communication between the employees. I\u2019d say listening is very, very important.\nThe second thing that I think is important is curiosity. A desire to constantly learn; to constantly advance. I think the third thing is to have an element of respect for your patients, and for your employees, and that they know that you have an open door. If a patient comes they know that I\u2019m going to listen to their needs. I\u2019m going to hopefully, adequately communicate what I see is how to achieve their goals. So, it\u2019s a conversation. It\u2019s not a one-way directive of me telling the patients what to do. I like to get feedback from my patients and I like to be able to have an open dialogue with my patients and with my employees.\nWell I think the challenge you face as a leader is with your employees. You know sometimes there is dissent in an office. There are personality differences, and I think the most important thing that I do when I\u2019m challenged is recognize that it\u2019s a challenge with managing employees. If all I had to do is take care of patients, my life would be very easy. I think the challenge is more in the business and administration of medicine and unfortunately in order to look to deliver excellent care to my patients I need to support staff and sometimes the biggest challenge is making sure that everyone is on the same page at the same time.\nDo you think collaboration and networking among physicians through services and programs such as Doctors\u2019 Choice Awards plays an important role in the success of the modern medical professional?\nAbsolutely, I think that any time doctors can communicate with each other whether it be sharing trends, sharing thoughts and new innovations, or sharing strategies on how to deliver more efficient and excellent care to their patients, or how to manage a practice. I think all of these things we all learn from each other and again it\u2019s constant. You know being a doctor these days is almost like being in a chess match. You do what you think is right but then life comes at you with a move and sometimes you\u2019re kind of surprised and you need to make an adjustment. So you have to be very nimble. You have to have the ability to see a change. Hopefully ahead of when most people see a trend. I\u2019ve consider myself very, very lucky and very proud of the fact that I saw the trend of non-surgical rejuvenation back in 1983 and it didn\u2019t even become mainstream for another 20 years or so.

A primary component of ongoing substance abuse are cravings experienced by the individual. While they play an integral role in drug addiction, cravings are not as well understood as they might be, and a recent report argues that a better understanding of cravings could lead to more effective substance abuse treatments.\nCraving is one of the primary driving forces behind substance abuse and was even considered as an element of the diagnostic criteria for substance abuse in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), but a lack of consensus on the nature of craving meant it couldn\u2019t be included. Craving is commonly understood to be a subjective state in which an individual undergoes an extraordinary urge to engage in a particular behavior, regardless of whether or not that behavior includes detrimental consequences. A recent report on craving, released in December 2016 by the journal Progress in Brain Research, explained that modern theorists have recognized this subjective state to be just one element of craving.\nAccording to the report, craving is better understood to be a variety of phenomena. These include the memories a person has of past substance use, difficulty focusing on things other than the craving, a heightened attention to substance-related stimuli (such as the sound of two beer mugs clanking together or the sight of a hypodermic needle), and the expectancy the person has as the result of substance abuse. In addition, cravings may also be associated with the desire to mitigate the symptoms of withdrawal, which may occur upon cessation of substance use.\nUnfortunately, this limited understanding of the phenomenon of craving has led to some problems in the efficacy of addiction recovery treatment, since many types of intervention target certain aspects of craving while leaving other elements intact. These untreated elements can then lead the individual back to substance abuse in order to satiate the remaining aspects of craving.

These synopses include fiscal year performance and notation of any major changes in financial reporting format.\n>>> Click on the Offices and Entities Below to Download the Specific Statements (Adobe PDF)\nI. Diocesan High Schools\nThe Diocesan High Schools include Bishop McGann-Mercy High School in Riverhead, Holy Trinity High School in Hicksville and St. John the Baptist High School in West Islip. In fiscal year 2011, the schools had $39.3 million in combined revenues and $39.1 million in expenditures, resulting in a net operating surplus of $205,000 from operations before Diocesan subsidy. The Diocese provided the schools with $1.1 million in total support: $700,000 towards operations and $362,000 towards mortgage commitments for Bishop McGann-Mercy. Total temporarily restricted net assets increased by $189,000 in fiscal year 2011.\nII. The Diocese\u2019s Administrative Offices, and its Cemeteries and\nInsurance Unit\nThe financial statements of the Administrative Offices include Pastoral Center Operations, Plant, Diocesan Loan Account, and the Catholic Ministries Appeal. In 2011, total net assets of the Administrative Offices increased from $35.8 million to $36.1 million, an increase of $260,000. Total revenues decreased by $4.0 million due primarily to a one-time sale of property of $5.8 million, which occurred in 2010 and a decrease in special collections of $1.5 million. This was offset by increases in Diocesan assessments and bequests and other income. Net appreciation in the fair value of investments was $420,000. Total expenses decreased by $5.7 million due primarily to decreases in ministerial, administration and institutional advancement expenses.\nCatholic Cemeteries include Holy Rood Cemetery, Holy Sepulchre Cemetery and Queen of All Saints Cemetery. During the fiscal 2011 year, the Cemeteries contributed $3.25 million to the Administrative Offices. The Cemeteries ended the fiscal year with an increase of $7.3 million in total net assets which was due primarily to increases in cemetery operations and investment returns.\nWhen a \u201cright of burial\u201d or entombment is sold by Catholic Cemeteries, a percentage of the fee is designated as a Permanent Maintenance fund or a Mausoleum Maintenance Care fund. These funds are not donations; therefore, they are not permanently restricted under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Further, New York State only regulates permanent maintenance funds when they are held by entities other than religious corporations, requiring that such funds be treated as trust funds, prudently invested with the intent of preserving capital and producing a reasonable income. Although Catholic Cemeteries is exempt from the State regulations, it recognizes a written promise to invest the principal of the Permanent Maintenance Fund and to use the income to fund the general maintenance and improvements of the cemetery. As of August 31, 2011, Catholic Cemeteries had $86.1 million of net assets contractually committed for such purposes.\nIn fiscal 2009, Catholic Cemeteries undertook a study to estimate the amount of maintenance that they will incur in the future to care for Catholic Cemeteries. Based on an actuarial projection of 50 years and a discount rate of 3.5%, the present value of future obligations for permanent maintenance are substantial and would require an estimated $134.0 million to be fully funded as of August 31, 2011.\nIn fiscal 2011, the independent auditors of Catholic Cemeteries were changed from KPMG, LLP to Holtz Rubenstein Reminick, LLP.\nThe Health Insurance Program provides medical, dental, life, and non-occupational disability insurance for participating employees of the Diocese and many entities associated with the Diocese. During 2011, net assets available for benefits increased by $61,000, which was the result of lower claims. The fiscal year ended with total net assets available for benefits of $15.7 million and a benefit obligation of $3.3 million.\nProtected Self Insurance Program\nThe Protected Self Insurance Program (PSIP) was initiated by the Diocese principally to administer a program for the self-indemnification of property and casualty losses of participating parishes, health facilities, institutions and organizations and individuals within the Diocese on an occurrence basis. During fiscal 2011, net assets held for the benefit of participants decreased by $2.4 million versus $9.3 million in 2010. The improvement over the prior fiscal year was primarily the result of actuarially determined future assessment relief associated with the elimination of the workers compensation board self-insurance program and reductions in insurance premiums expenses.\nIn fiscal 2011, the independent auditors of PSIP were changed from KPMG, LLP to Saslow, Lufkin & Buggy, LLP.\nIII. Entities Associated with the Diocese\nUnitas Investment Fund, Inc. (Unitas) is an investment company that facilitates cost efficient investing in harmony with the teaching and beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church. The net assets of Unitas represent separate accounts owned individually by each of its participating entities, such as the Diocese, parishes and schools. The fiscal 2011 total return (calculated based on the AICPA\u2019s Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies) for all Unitas assets was 6.82%. For fiscal year 2011, net assets available for participants increased $185,000 to $205.1 million, resulting from net investor withdrawals of $12.1 million, offset by $12.3 million of investment returns.\nThe Mission Assistance Corporation (MAC) was formed for the purpose of administering loans to Parishes in need. Such loans may be for, but not limited to, short-term bridge financing, construction, and repairs. In addition, MAC periodically provides financial grants to Parishes that without such grants would be unable to fulfill the mission of the Church. In fiscal 2011, total net assets increased $864,000 to $15.2 million due primarily to mission fees and net appreciation in the fair value of investments and mission fees.\nThe Catholic Press Association is the publisher of \u201cThe Long Island Catholic\u201d weekly newspaper. In 2011, unrestricted net assets decreased $423,000 to $1.3 million due primarily to reductions in subsidy from the Diocese. Total revenues increased by $19,000 to $1.9 million while total expenses decreased $415,000 to $2.7 million resulting from cost cutting measures. During fiscal 2011, $782,000 was drawn from investments to cover operating deficits.\nIn fiscal 2011, the independent auditors of Catholic Press were changed from KPMG, LLP to Holtz Rubenstein Reminick, LLP.\nDiocesan Service, Inc. (DSI) provides insurance brokerage services for the Diocese and many entities associated with the Diocese. In 2011, DSI earned total revenues of $15,000 and had total expenses before franchise tax credit of $24,000. Total retained earnings at the end of 2011 were $142,000, after a net loss of $7,700.\nIn fiscal 2011, the independent auditors of DSI were changed from KPMG, LLP to Saslow, Lufkin & Buggy, LLP.\nThe Seminary of the Immaculate Conception is an institution of higher learning established for the training of men for the priesthood. In 2011, the Seminary had a net decrease in unrestricted net assets of $266,000, resulting from an operating deficit, offset by Diocesan subsidies totaling $1.7 million. Of the total subsidy, $1.3 million was for general subsidy and $340,000 was for tuition and health insurance.\nCatholic Charities and Affiliates (CC)\nThe financial statements of Catholic Charities (the \u201cAgency\u201d) and Affiliates include the accounts of the Agency\u2019s programs and administration, as well as the accounts of three affiliated corporations: Catholic Charities Support Corporation (\u201cCCSC\u201d), Catholic Charities Health Systems of the Diocese of Rockville Centre, Inc. (\u201cCCHS\u201d) and Regina Maternity Services Corporation (\u201cRegina\u201d). In 2011, combined unrestricted net assets from operations decreased $479,000 and total combined net assets decreased $289,000, to $24.6 million. In 2011, Catholic Charities recognized receipt of $1.75 million in assistance from the Diocesan CMA program.\nEcclesia Assurance Company (the Company) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rockville Centre (the Diocese), incorporated under the laws of the State of New York. The Company is licensed to transact insurance and reinsurance business as a captive insurance company pursuant to the applicable statutes of the State of New York. The company provides various property and casualty insurance coverage to the Diocese. In 2011, Ecclesia had net income of $1.4 million due to net premiums earned offset by underwriting expenses. At the close of the fiscal year, Ecclesia had $28.8 million in total assets and $13.8 million in total stockholder\u2019s equity.\nThe Diocese of Rockville Centre Propagation of the Faith and Mission Office (the Mission Office) is a member of the National Office for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith (the National Office), which was organized to develop an awareness of the work of the Missionaries and a better understanding of the social, economic, cultural and religious conditions of the people with whom they work; encourage support of the Missions and Missionaries through prayer and donations; and develop personal contact with the Missionaries. In 2011, unrestricted net assets remained unchanged as the majority of the activity within the Mission Office is custodial in nature, except for administrative fees, investment earnings and operating/fundraising expenses.",

        "title": "Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals Sharpens the \u201cTeeth\u201d of Assignments of Rents by Excluding Them From Defaulted Borrower\u2019s Bankruptcy Estate: Dykema",
        "raw_content": "When a defaulted borrower files a bankruptcy petition, two important events occur: (1) a bankruptcy \u201cestate\u201d comprised of certain assets of the debtor is created; and (2) all collection efforts (and pending litigation) against the debtor or its assets are automatically stayed. Accordingly, the court\u2019s determination of whether items are or are not property of the debtor and of the bankruptcy estate is of critical importance to the creditor\u2019s ability to collect on its debt. In the real estate context, a bankruptcy filing will delay\u2014or even preclude (under certain circumstances)\u2014a lender\u2019s ability to foreclosure on its mortgage. However, a recent decision from the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals significantly improves a lender\u2019s ability to collect on its debt notwithstanding a bankruptcy filing by holding that a properly perfected assignment of rents (\u201cAOR\u201d) related to real property in Michigan is not a part of the debtor\u2019s bankruptcy estate. See Town Center Flats, LLC v ECP Commercial II LLC (In re Town Ctr Flats, LLC, 855 F3d 721, 722 (CA 6, 2017)).\nIn Town Center, the debtor, a single asset real estate holding company (the \u201cBorrower\u201d), owned a multi-unit residential complex in Michigan, which was financed with a $5.3 million loan held by ECP Commercial II LLC (the \u201cLender\u201d). The Lender\u2019s loan was secured by a mortgage and a broadly written AOR, which provided that the Borrower \u201cirrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally [agreed to] transfer, sell, assign, pledge and convey to [the Lender], its successors and assigns, all of the right, title and interest of [the Borrower] in income of every nature of and from the Project, including, without limitation, minimum rents [and] additional rents.\u201d The AOR also provided that it was a \u201cpresent, absolute and executed grant of the powers herein granted to Assignee,\u201d and granted a license to [the Borrower] to collect and retain rents until an event of default, at which point the license would \u201cautomatically terminate without notice to [the Borrower].\u201d\nThe Borrower defaulted on its loan and the Lender then completed the remaining steps to \u201cperfect\u201d its interest in the AOR (steps to perfecting an AOR in Michigan are discussed below). The Lender then filed an action in Michigan state court claiming breach of contract, initiating foreclosure, and requesting that a receivership be established to manage the Borrower\u2019s property. Shortly after the lawsuit was initiated, the Borrower filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief. The Lender then sought an order from the bankruptcy court prohibiting the Borrower from using any rents collected after the filing of the bankruptcy petition due to the Lender\u2019s perfected AOR. The bankruptcy court denied the Lender\u2019s request and the Lender appealed the decision by arguing that, under Michigan law, a perfected AOR constitutes a transfer of ownership of the right to collect rents and not a mere security interest in the rents. The United States District Court and Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with the Lender and held that the rents must be excluded from the Borrower\u2019s bankruptcy estate based on the \u201cbroad language of the [AOR] [which] evidenced an intention to transfer ownership\u201d and the language in MCL 554.231, which \u201callows for an ownership transfer in these circumstances\u2026.\u201d\nThe Sixth Circuit summarized its holding as follows:\nIn summary, Michigan law treats a completed assignment of rents as a change of ownership and the assignor of those rents does not retain residual property rights in the assigned rents.\nAlthough the Sixth Circuit\u2019s holding in Town Center certainly sharpens the \u201cteeth\u201d of a properly perfected AOR as a means for lenders to collect from a defaulted borrower, lenders should be mindful that this holding will have limited applicability throughout the country as it was decided under the unique real properly laws of Michigan (e.g., MCL 554.231 \u2013 554.232 and case law cited in the Town Center opinion). Therefore, a prudent lender will be sure to fully understand how a given state treats AOR and will include language in the AOR which maximizes the lender\u2019s rights under that state\u2019s real property laws. The Town Center opinion also highlights the importance of \u201cperfecting\u201d the AOR before the borrower\u2019s bankruptcy petition is filed. In Michigan, the five steps to properly perfect an AOR are set forth in MCL 554.231 \u2013 554.232 and can be summarized as: (1) entering into a signed AOR; (2) recording the AOR; (3) the occurrence of an event of default by the borrower; (4) recording a notice of default; and (5) serving the tenant(s) with a copy of the recorded AOR and notice of default.\nOne other important implication of Town Center is its potential impact on a borrower\u2019s ability to restructure through Chapter 11 bankruptcy when the borrower is a single asset entity, as was the case in Town Center. As the rents received from a single asset entity\u2019s property are typically the sole source of income for the borrower, excluding the AOR from the borrower\u2019s bankruptcy estate will effectively leave most borrowers with no income and thus no ability to restructure the business with a court-approved plan to repay its creditors. The Sixth Circuit recognized this concern but ultimately held that, \u201cMichigan law, however, is clear on the matter and governs despite other policy concerns.\u201d\nDykema will continue to monitor these issues as the Town Center opinion is interpreted and applied in Michigan and throughout the country.

Most tests are taken 6-9 months before entry.\nIf your child already attends a private junior school (Preparatory School), then the school would have already been giving your child coaching for the exam. However if your child attends a state school; then it would be prudent to prepare your child.\nThere are a small number of \u2018Elite\u2019 schools for which you have to apply many years in advance and sit a test a year or two before entry. These include Eton, Harrow, St Paul\u2019s, Westminster, Winchester and Wycombe Abbey.\nThere are a few non-selective schools which accept applications on the basis of previous years reports and a school reference.\nWhats In The Test?\nIf the test is written by the school, then they are likely to include Verbal Reasoning , Non-verbal Reasoning, Maths or English. Not all four subjects would necessarily be covered, it depends on the school. For most of the time the details can be found on the schools\u2019 websites. Sometimes part of the test is just referred to as \u2018a reasoning test\u2019, which usually consists of verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning and mathematical reasoning. Or \u2018quantitative reasoning\u2019, which is the testing of problem solving questions using mathematical skills. Or \u2018abstract reasoning\u2019, which is the same as non-verbal reasoning.\nWhat is verbal reasoning? This is the testing of problem solving skills using words and mathematical skills.\nWhat is Non-verbal reasoning? This is the testing problem solving using visual reasoning in identifying relationships, differences and similarities between diagrams and shapes.\nMaths usually covers KS2 National Curriculum, although some of the questions are more challenging, often covering more algebra. Children who attend a state primary school may not have covered some of the maths topics.\nEnglish often includes essay writing and sometimes a comprehension test.\nIf schools use the Common Entrance Exam, core subjects are Maths, English and Science. In addition applicants may also be required to take a paper from a variety of other subjects \u2013 French, German, Spanish, Geography, History, Religious Studies. Schools that have entry at 13+ may prefer to choose to use this kind of test.\nPast Papers are often available from the school\u2019s website. The materials used for the 11+ for grammar schools are suitable.

At first he listened to the counsels of Dion, who had always enjoyed the respect and confidence of his father. At the advice of Dion he invited Plato to Syracuse, where the philosopher was received with the greatest honour. His illustrious pupil immediately began to take lessons in geometry; superfluous dishes disappeared from the royal table; and Dionysius even betrayed some symptoms of a wish to mitigate the former rigours of the despotism. But now the old courtiers took the alarm. It was whispered to Dionysius that the whole was a deep-laid scheme on the part of Dion for the purpose of effecting a revolution and placing his own nephews on the throne. [The elder Dionysius had married two wives at the same time: one of these was a Locrian woman named Doris; the other, Aristomache, was a Syracusan, and the sister of Dion. The younger Dionysius was his elder son by Doris; but he also had children by Aristomache.] These accusations had the desired effect on the mind of Dionysius, who shortly afterwards expelled Dion from Sicily. Plato with difficulty obtained permission to return to Greece (B.C. 366). Dionysius now gave way to his vices without restraint, and became an object of contempt to the Syracusans. Dion saw that the time had come for avenging his own wrongs as well as those of his country. Collecting a small force, he sailed to Sicily, and suddenly appeared before the gates of Syracuse during the absence of Dionysius on an expedition to the coasts of Italy. The inhabitants, filled with joy, welcomed Dion as their deliverer: and Dionysius on his return from Italy found himself compelled to quit Syracuse (B.C. 356), leaving Dion undisputed master of the city. The latter was now in a condition to carry out all those exalted notions of political life which he had sought to instil into the mind of Dionysius. He seems to have contemplated some political changes; but his immediate and practical acts were tyrannical, and were rendered still more unpopular by his overbearing manners. His unpopularity continued to increase, till at length one of his bosom friends--the Athenian Callippus--seized the opportunity to mount to power by his murder, and caused him to be assassinated in his own house. This event took place in 353, about three years after the expulsion of the Dionysian dynasty. Callippus contrived to retain the sovereign power only a twelvemonth. A period of anarchy followed, during which Dionysius made himself master of the city by treachery, about B.C. 346. Dionysius, however, was not able to re-establish himself firmly in his former power. Most of the other cities of Sicily had shaken off the yoke of Syracuse, and were governed by petty despots. Meantime the Carthaginians prepared to take advantage of the distracted condition of Sicily. In the extremity of their sufferings, several of the Syracusan exiles appealed for aid to Corinth, their mother-city. The application was granted, and Timoleon was appointed to command an expedition destined for the relief of Syracuse.\nTo Chapter XIX : Phillip of Macedon, B.C. 359-336",

        "raw_content": "A modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform can help your business identify new opportunities, grow safely and reliably, and outperform its competitors. If your old ERP system has been holding you back, here\u2019s how you can modernise your ERP and watch your business take off.\nIn the past, lots of businesses chose so-called best-of-breed or point solutions to run their operations. This delivered benefits in that it meant the business ended up with the most precisely-matched solution for its challenges in the days when most systems required a great deal of customisation.\nHowever, this approach meant you had to manage a plethora of partners and vendors, which took time and cost money. And, it made it very difficult for your systems to integrate with each other. Your ERP system sat separately from your email system, which was siloed off from your sales management system, and so on.\nThis, in turn, meant significant duplication of effort, alongside inefficient processes. Users had to switch between different screens and different applications to complete basic business tasks. End of month reporting was a nightmare and getting real-time insights was impossible. Business decisions were made based on what happened in the past rather than on what was likely to happen in the future simply because there was no capability for predictive analytics.\nToday, savvy business decision-makers are moving to a platform approach because it dramatically reduces cost and complexity. Working with one partner and one vendor lets you achieve the best, most integrated solution for your business.\nBy leveraging the Microsoft stack, you can access state-of-the-art ERP functionality alongside extensions that make it even more powerful, plus productivity solutions such as Microsoft Office, and additional services such as the Azure cloud and built-in security tools. Microsoft can deliver your IT needs from end to end and, because of the platform approach, you can save money on licensing costs.\nStart with a strong partner\nUnless your business has ERP expertise, it makes sense to partner with a provider that can help you navigate the complexities of ERP and find a solution that matches your business needs.\nEmpired has worked with hundreds of businesses like yours to take advantage of the Microsoft stack to solve challenges across the business, not just ERP-related. We\u2019re a member of the Dynamics Inner Circle, which means we\u2019re in the top one per cent of Microsoft partners worldwide. Put simply, we know Microsoft. That means you\u2019ll get the best, most cost-effective solution available.\nIntroducing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Finance & Operations\nBased on the well-known Dynamics NAV framework, Microsoft has released two new all-in-one business solutions. Business Central is ideal for smaller and medium-sized businesses, while Finance & Operations is perfect for larger, more complex enterprises. Underpinned by powerful business and productivity tools that put all of your business operations at your users\u2019 fingertips, these solutions are set to revolutionise the way people view ERP systems.\nPosted by: Ulrich Theaart, Solution Specialist | 04 October 2018",

        "raw_content": "TEHRAN, IRAN - As Iranians awoke Tuesday to renewed U.S. sanctions that had been lifted by Tehran's nuclear deal with world powers, the question on everyone's mind remained: What happens now?\nFrom deciphering President Donald Trump's tweets on Iran - including one demanding \"WORLD PEACE\" - to trying to figure out how much their cratering currency is worth, Iranians appear divided on how to respond.\nThe same goes for their theocratic government, which for now is abiding by the atomic accord. President Hassan Rouhani, a relative moderate whose administration struck the 2015 deal, has taken an increasingly confrontational line in recent weeks, applauded by hard-liners who had long opposed him. Then in a speech on live television Monday night, Rouhani seemed to suggest that direct talks with Trump could be possible.\nThat's something North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong-hu, who visited Tehran on Tuesday and met with its leadership, knows firsthand.\nWhether Iran should choose a North Korea-style photo-op with the American president who backed out of the nuclear deal or abandon the unraveling accord and increase its uranium enrichment remains a fiercely debated question in Iran. But everyone agrees something has to be done soon, as sporadic protests across the country of 80 million people only add to the pressure.\nVarious currencies are displayed without the going rate on a money exchange shop window in downtown Tehran, Iran, Aug. 7, 2018.\n\"The situation is not good right now; nothing is clear,\" said Ebrahim Gholamnejad, a 41-year-old carpenter. \"The economy is turning into a jungle.\"\nThe newly imposed American sanctions target U.S. dollar financial transactions, Iran's automotive sector, and the purchase of commercial planes and metals, including gold. Even stronger sanctions targeting Iran's oil sector and central bank are to be re-imposed in early November.\nOn Tuesday, German car and truck maker Daimler AG said it was suspending its \"very limited\" activities in Iran and shuttering a representative office. European companies had known since Trump's announcement in May that sanctions were coming back. Airbus at that time suspended plane deliveries to Iran; of 98 orders, only one A321 had been delivered, plus two A330s that were sold to a company that leased them to an Iranian customer.\nIn this photo provided by Tasnim News Agency, a traditional water cannon salute welcomes an Iran Air's new commercial aircraft at Mehrabad airport in Tehran, Iran, Aug. 5, 2018.\nAs uncertainty over the Iran nuclear deal grew after Trump entered the White House, Iran's already-anemic economy nosedived. The country's monthly inflation rate has hit double digits again and the national unemployment rate is 12.5 percent. Among youth, it is even worse, with around 25 percent out of a job.\nIran's currency, the rial, now trades over double its government-set rate to the U.S. dollar. Trying to stem the loss, the Iranian government five months ago shut down all private currency exchange shops, but the black market has thrived.\nCurrency exchange shops line a street in downtown Tehran, Iran, Aug. 7, 2018. Money exchange shops across Iran cautiously reopened on Tuesday after being shut for five months.\nOn Tuesday, central bank chief Abdolnasser Hemmati allowed private currency exchanges to reopen. Shops welcomed customers, though some displayed no exchange rates late into the morning amid confusion over how much the troubled rial was truly worth.\nIranian authorities recently arrested 45 people, including the central bank's deputy chief, as part of a crackdown on financial fraud. On Tuesday, Iran's state-controlled television aired a 30-minute documentary applauding the central bank's new economic decisions.\nThe hard-line Keyhan newspaper, which previously lampooned Rouhani, bore his picture on the front page with a large headline quoting him saying: \"The way we can surpass all sanctions is to have unity.\"\nBut what to do next remains an open question. Iran continues to abide by the nuclear deal it struck with the Obama administration and other world powers, which limits its enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of sanctions, and makes it impossible for Iran to quickly develop a nuclear weapon. Iran has always said its nuclear program is entirely peaceful.\nIn recent weeks, Iran has prominently displayed its centrifuges and threatened to resume enriching uranium at higher rates. At one point Rouhani renewed a long-standing Iranian threat to close off the Strait of Hormuz, through which a third of all oil traded by sea passes.\nTrump for his part has ricocheted between threats and promises to speak with Iranian officials without preconditions, offering mixed messages to both the Iranian public and its government. That continued Tuesday, as he described American actions in a tweet as \"the most biting sanctions ever imposed, and in November they ratchet up to yet another level.\"\n\"Anyone doing business with Iran will NOT be doing business with the United States,\" he wrote. \"I am asking for WORLD PEACE, nothing less!\"\nJohn Bolton, the U.S. national security adviser, said the intent of sanctions is not to bring about Iranian \"regime change.\"\nBut we definitely want to put maximum pressure on the government, and it's not just to come back to discuss fixing a deal that's basically not fixable,\" Bolton said Tuesday on Fox News. \"We want to see a much broader retreat by Iran from their support for international terrorism, their belligerent activity in the Middle East and their ballistic missile, nuclear-related program.\"\nThough Iranians already are angered by Trump putting their nation on his travel ban list, some say talks with the U.S. president might be necessary. Others insist that Iran, which has weathered decades of previous sanctions, should stand its ground.\n\"I believe America cannot do a damn thing,\" said Farzaneh, a 54-year-old housewife who declined to give her last name out of privacy concerns. \"It can't do anything, because Iranians are backing each other.\"\nA street musician plays music as a woman makes her way in downtown Tehran, Iran, July 30, 2018. Iran's currency has dropped to a record low ahead of the imposition of renewed American sanctions.\nDirect talks with the U.S. also would challenge the Islamic Republic leadership, which for nearly 40 years has encouraged flag-burning demonstrations against \"the Great Satan.\"\nOn Tuesday, Ri, the North Korean foreign minister, who was involved in Pyongyang's Singapore talks with Trump, met with Iranian leaders, though it's unclear what he discussed with them.\nFor now though, Iranians say they can only wait for the next Trump tweet or their government's decision on how to respond.\n\"People should just keep calm, because the other party wants to disrupt our peace,\" said Gholamnejad, the carpenter. \"America, who imposed the sanctions, wants to create chaos.\"",

        "raw_content": "Don't go into this blindly. It won't end well.\nImage credit: julief514 | Getty Images\nCEO of Unicorn Innovations\nFor all its glamour, being an entrepreneur requires hours of unglamorous work. Launching numerous ventures can be great, but can also bring along stress and burnout. Even if you\u2019ve been successful before, circumstances in your life change, and you may be considering a new venture.\nIt\u2019s critical to make sure you\u2019re genuinely ready before even thinking about making a pivot as an entrepreneur. I\u2019ve compiled the five critical questions that too many entrepreneurs forget to ask themselves before beginning their next venture. Failure to ask any of these could lead to pain if you aren\u2019t mentally and financially prepared. Here\u2019s what you need to do some soul searching on before jumping off.\nRelated: Best Way to Stay Motivated While Starting a New Venture\n1. What is the absolute worst case scenario?\nWhen it comes to business, a savvy entrepreneur should be prepared to handle the unexpected. It\u2019s a given for things to go wrong. The norm is that you will always experience setbacks as an entrepreneur; it\u2019s just a matter of prepping your mindset to deal with those setbacks.\nAsk yourself what the risk factors are and what your backup plan is to manage them. You can\u2019t always control the outcome of some aspects of your business, but be prepared to tackle unexpected events and pivot your plan.\n2. What is the social cost of this venture?\nEverybody talks about the financial costs of a new business, but nobody talks about the social costs. It\u2019s important to be aware that you can become very polarizing as an entrepreneur and push a lot of people away. It\u2019s normal to experience really low points during your early years as an entrepreneur. You\u2019ll have to make social sacrifices, and a lot of your personal relationships became strained because of those sacrifices. If you\u2019re focused on achieving success, you\u2019re going to weed out the people who are simply content with their lives. If you\u2019re committed to building something great, expect the journey to be lonely at times.\nRelated: Investing in Your Happiness Is the Path to Success\n3. What are my top motivating factors for starting this venture?\nAt first, it's normal for your top motivating factor to be money-driven. It\u2019s essential for you to focus on building the foundation of your business and establish cash flow. Be okay with the fact that wealth is important. Once you learn how to generate cash, take that skill and apply it to other areas. As your business grows, you'll figure out what your next motivating factor is. Whether it's driven by philanthropy or a passion, your motivating factors will change as you grow.\n4. Can this business grow beyond $1 million a year?\nIn today\u2019s environment of globalization and competitive threats, staying small is not an option. Your business venture needs to have the potential to grow to at least $1 million per year. Ask yourself; can this be an actual business and not a lifestyle? For example, if you go on a month-long vacation, you should be able to come back to a business that's more successful when you left. Your business needs to eventually be able to function as a well-oiled machine, not a one-man show.\nRelated: The 7-Step Playbook for Business Growth\n5. Am I willing to take full responsibility?\nIt\u2019s easy to be excited about a business when it\u2019s first launching. The reality is that a majority of your days as a business owner will not be rosy, and it's easy to blame other factors for your inability to make progress. One of the most common complaints from entrepreneurs is that they blame their industry or town for their inability to reach success. A timeless truth about building a business is that the grass is never greener on the other side. Business is actually largely the same across industries. You\u2019ll face similar challenges no matter your venture, and you need to stray away from blaming factors that have little impact on your chances to succeed.",

But just what is a business model? Which ones work best and why?How do you know if your start-up business has the right one?\nDefining your business model is how you:\nIdentify your market;\nDefine and differentiate your solutions;\nGet and keep customers, creating value for them;\nHow you get to market through promotion and distribution;\nHow you define what\u2019s to be done;\nThe way you will set up your resources;\nHow you\u2019re going to do all this at a profit.\n\u201cStop trying to find the formula that will instantly make your idea into a winner. Instead of being scientists the best marketers are artists. They realise that whatever is being sold is being purchased because it creates and emotional want, not because it fills a simple need.\u201c Seth Godin\nFollowing are some of the Top Business Models you can consider:\n1. Home-based Business Models\nLess risk and lower start-up costs \u2013 allows you to test the entrepreneurial waters without having to spend money on assets, employees and other initial expenses.\nEasily scalable \u2013 you can make your home-based business as big or small as you\u2019d like to suit existing commitments, such as parenthood and a day job.\nOutsourcing \u2013 a great strategy to keep things simple at home. You can contract with other companies to do your public relations, warehousing, shipping, website management, even manufacturing.\n2. Brick-and-mortar Business Models\nGives you an opportunity to work face-to-face with people.\nA physical location may attract walk-in traffic to supplement traffic you gain through your marketing efforts, depending on your type of business.\nGives you a dedicated space to go to work each day and become mentally and physically immersed in running your business.\nHigher risk and start-up costs.\nIf your concept is retail-oriented, you must acquire inventory to merchandise your store.\n3. e-Commerce Business Models\nAs with a home-based business, this is a lower risk, lower cost business to start. You don\u2019t necessarily need lots of personnel, inventory and facilities.\nYou can choose to do it full-time or part-time.\nEasily scalable \u2013 you can make your e-commerce business as big or small as you\u2019d like to suit existing commitments, such as parenthood and a day job.\nYou can tap into a national, or even global, customer base through the internet.\nRelated: (Video) The Value of Validating Your Business Model\n4. Other Business Models\nLead Generation business models are those where a company uses the web, or some other mechanism, to generate a large number of leads, and sells them on at a higher price.\nDirect Sales business models uses sales personnel and is one of the most expensive ways to pursue customer acquisition. Research shows that for every five sales people hired, typically between one and two of them fail, and never get close to reaching quota. Unfortunately because of the long orientation and training of sales personnel, it typically takes six to nine months to detect which individuals will fail, and to terminate them.\nRecurring Revenue or Annuity Income business model can be highly predictable over time as you have a better idea of the revenue you will receive and thus reduces the stress of having no revenue. Think of consultants that charges a monthly retainer to a client, or a gym charging a monthly membership fee.\n\u201cThe goal of business then should not be to simply sell to anyone who wants what you have, but rather to find people who believe what you believe.\u201c Simon Sinek\nAre You the Next Vanilla Ice (aka a One-Hit-Wonder)?\nHow the Publicity Business Model Boosted their Profitability\nFounder of JTB Consulting, a leading Business Plan Consultancy that provides practical, unique and affordable Business Consulting and Business Plan Solutions to entrepreneurs, start-up businesses and existing companies.

In the past, a linear approach to business model design may have sufficed \u2013 inputs enter a logical process that creates outputs of value.\nToday, to truly deliver a value proposition that can flourish, an understanding of the way that complex adaptive systems come together to create both outputs and outcomes is required. ACCA identified12 characteristics that organisations are combining as they build new business models. The full model and characteristics can be read here.\nThe accountancy profession is well placed to support the growth of business models of the future that help build resilient, inclusive and prosperous societies, by leading in strategic roles. In order to be ready to make the most of these opportunities professional accountants will demand new skills.

What is the shape of the world in which models need to operate and how do they come together to build future value?\nUse these six tips to create the financial section of a business plan that will get your company off the ground.\nThe following excerpt is from Scott Duffy\u2019s book Breakthrough.\nWhat\u2019s the first step in figuring out how to execute your big idea? Creating a working model for your business.\nWe\u2019ve all been brainwashed into thinking that the best way to do this is to sit behind our desks and write a long, detailed business plan. You know the kind: It starts with a fancy cover and your mission statement, then describes your team, market, product, competition, and so on.\nMost entrepreneurs spend a lot of time and resources writing their plan. Too often, they get feedback from all the wrong people. Their friends and family want to support them, but they\u2019re telling the entrepreneurs only what they want to hear \u2014 that they have come up with the next Google or Apple or Tesla (keep in mind, none of this feedback is coming from customers).\nBy the time the entrepreneur gets to the last section in the business plan \u2014 the financials \u2014 he\u2019s totally sold on the idea. Sometimes the financial section is left unfinished or dropped entirely as the business is launched.\nAnd why not? We\u2019re passionate. We\u2019re committed. We know we can\u2019t fail. So what are we waiting for? Let\u2019s go!\nHere\u2019s the problem: Most entrepreneurs change their business model six times when working through the financial section of their plans. While running the numbers, they identify key distinctions with regard to income and expenses. They gain a deeper understanding of what it will take to break even and how to achieve free cash flow. As a result, they come up with better-informed strategies for attaining their desired financial outcomes.\nThe most important part of the initial business planning process, and the one people most often neglect, is getting your numbers to tell a story that makes sense for you and your investors. If you start at the beginning of the plan only to learn that your assumptions about the business don\u2019t add up once you reach the end, you\u2019ve lost valuable time and money.\nRelated: The Top Business Models For Your New Start-Up Business\nRegardless of whether you\u2019re in startup or growth mode or moving to the next stage of your business, mistakes can be costly, so here\u2019s what I recommend:\n1. Start with the last page first\nOnce I have a basic understanding of what I\u2019d like to build, the market, my target customers, the busi\u00adness opportunity, and the product, I dig right into the numbers and create a simple one-page spreadsheet that clearly identifies how the money flows. Basically, I write business plans backward. I\u2019ve learned that once the numbers tell the story you want, the rest of the plan will write itself.\nDon\u2019t make this process more difficult than it needs to be. Limit your model to one page. Create the simplest, most basic spreadsheet you can that identifies income, expenses, breakeven, cash flow, and the capital required to achieve your outcome. Use conservative assumptions, and don\u2019t rely on best-case scenarios.\nYou\u2019ll learn more about your business by getting into the market than you ever will sitting behind a desk. At least 50 percent of your time should be outside the office gathering information that can be applied to your plan. That means contacting industry insiders to learn more about the market, talking to prospective customers about their needs, and testing your competition\u2019s products and services.\nWhen we have an idea we passion\u00adately believe in, we\u2019re convincing. It\u2019s easy for our family and friends to tell us we have a winner on our hands because they want to be supportive.\nBut when you\u2019re modeling your busi\u00adness, the people whose feedback matters most are current and potential customers. Listen to what they have to say and apply what you learn to your model. Let their feedback, and not your enthusiasm, sway your projections.\n5. Don\u2019t throw out negative feedback\nSometimes it can be difficult to absorb negative feedback in a constructive frame of mind because we\u2019re so close to our projects and have so much on the line. We start rejecting and deflecting feedback that isn\u2019t in line with what we believe.\nBut honest, educated feedback is like gold \u2014 use it to open your mind and ask tough questions about your assumptions. You must be obsessively committed to asking what you can learn from this feedback and how you can apply it.\nThis is especially important for people entering new markets where they don\u2019t have prior experience. Getting feedback from others who\u2019ve lived in the space will add to your perspective. Sometimes you\u2019ll learn that there are things you don\u2019t know as a newcomer that would significantly impact your financial results.\nIn fact, this holds true throughout your business\u2019s lifetime. The entrepreneurs I know who\u2019ve built the most successful and thriving businesses are obsessed with getting constant feedback from the marketplace and adapting their businesses based on evolving market needs.\nRelated: Developing a Stable Business Model\n6. Be open to what the numbers tell you\nThe worst thing you can do is try to manipulate a model to match your assumptions. You need to approach your financial model with a completely open mind.\nRecognise that it will probably take longer than you ini\u00adtially thought to get to market, generate revenue, create profits, and accumulate the cash flow you need to operate and further invest in the business. By being open, you\u2019ll be able to make distinctions, apply them to your business, and set yourself on a path to success.\nYou need to be clear on where you want to go and put a simple and adaptable plan in place to help you get there. The clearer your vision is upfront, the easier it will be to back a plan to help you get there. Being obsessed with customer feedback will enable you to tweak strategy in a way that evolves with the market and helps keep you on top of the competition.\n4 Types Of Business Models To Suit Your Business Concept\nThere are four main types of business models, see which one suits your business concept.\nDifferent types of business models suit different types of businesses. A business model is the way that a company sells products to its customers. It describes how a business creates, delivers, and captures value.\nWhat type of business model should you adopt?\nA business model defines how the enterprise delivers value to customers, gets them to pay for that value, and converts those payments to profit.\nThere are four basic types of business model that any for-profit business will fall into:\nHello, I found this information for you: \"The Top Business Models For Your New Start-Up Business\".

        "raw_content": "channel Orange, Swing Lo Magellan, Hypnotic Nights, and Uncaged -- all reviewed for your listening pleasure.\nby Erie Reader Author July 25, 2012 at 12:00 PM\nAt heart, Frank Ocean is a storyteller. Before gaining fans after releasing his mixtape, \"Nostalgia, Ultra,\" Ocean was writing verses for John Legend and Justin Bieber. Now free of relative anonymity, Ocean continues the narrative in his own way. On \"channel ORANGE,\" each song acts as an individual piece about separate individuals, all linked through themes of requited love, addiction, and disillusionment. Ocean's lyrics are incredibly heartfelt and inclusive, not surprising for a man that recently published an open letter about loving another man, despite the ripples it may send through the R&B and hip-hop community. Through his words and expressive voice, Ocean ties everything together wonderfully, from the gorgeous confessional \"Bad Religion\" to the 10-minute shapeshifter in \"Pyramids.\" \"channel ORANGE\" is a mix of old and new, of Street Fighter II samples and breaking new barriers, all resulting in one beautiful story.\n-Alex Bieler 5 Stars\nThere must be a lot going on in Dave Longstreth's head. As the main mind behind the Dirty Projectors, Longstreth incorporates a multitude of musical ideas, from math-rock tinges to off-kilter rhythms and harmonies. With this eclectic mix of sounds, the band has been able to produce intricately crafted songs that, while very enjoyable, can be a bit hard to completely digest without several listens. On \"Swing Lo Magellan,\" the Dirty Projectors have released some of their most accessible music to date, without sacrificing any of their usual eclecticism and quality. The songs still aren't completely straightforward, nor should they be, but the tunes connect with the listener much more than before. \"Swing Lo Magellan\" feels much more relaxed, and Longstreth's warbles, as well as the lovely backing vocals of Amber Coffman and Haley Dekle, seem more open as a result.\n- Alex Bieler 4 Stars\nWhat happens when you take a fraternal garage rock duo and add in the production work of half of one of the biggest rock duos at the moment? Apparently, nothing too different. At least, that's the case on JEFF the Brotherhood's major-label debut, \"Hypnotic Nights.\" With Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys producing, the Nashville-based Orrall brothers make slight changes to the sludgy sound they've employed over the past decade. With sitar and horn sections making appearances on the album, \"Hypnotic Nights\" does contain some surprises, but for the most part, they don't veer the duo into unmarked territory. The three-string guitar riffs are still there, although they don't always hit hard enough. \"Hypnotic Nights\" can feel repetitive over its 11 tracks, although album closer \"Changes,\" an out-of-place synth-fueled Black Sabbath cover, raises some eyebrows. There's some worthy rock on here, but nothing too essential.\nThe Zac Brown Band opens its new album with \"Jump Right In,\" a clear call to action for listening to another bubbly collection of country-based tunes fueled by polished melodies and tight harmonies, which make for good summer junk food listening. The title track follows, quickening the toe-tapping pace of the album, and songs like \"The Wind\" capture the intensity ZBB's known for packing into live shows, which should keep fanboys and girls alike pleased. While \"Island Song\" offers a nice hip-swaying groove, the lyrics come off as shallow and boilerplate for any island jam, and Brown stretches his vocals too far in his attempt to capture the calypso feeling the song needs. \"Day That I Die,\" featuring Amos Lee, helps the album rebound with lush harmonies between Brown and Lee and anthemic lyrics, proving they are good songs here \u2013 just nothing too out of the ordinary for ZBB.\n- Ben Speggen 3 Stars",

        "raw_content": "Orpea Group - Cadrelan\nSupporting the growth of the Group\nOperating in a sector undergoing profound change and driven by a fast pace of development for over 10 years both in France and in the rest of Europe, the ORPEA-CLINEA Group wished to create a customised training programme with ESCP Europe. This was to be able to anticipate and adapt to changes in its environment and encourage the professional development of employees by promoting talented managers.\nSpecially designed for managers of the group, whether directors of clinics or retirement homes, regional directors or division managers, this training programme includes theoretical and practical teaching modules, enabling our employees to access in fine the Specialised Master in Healthcare and Hospital Management, a Grande Ecole diploma.\nORPEA wished to design the programme by customising it to the group's expectations and specific needs so that its employees may explore, make proposals and put their findings and analyses into practice on the issues they are currently facing in the field.\nThe aim is also to encourage high-potential managers to reflect on cross-functional strategic projects to support the development of the group in the coming years. To support the group's momentum of growth, ORPEA identifies talented people who share the values and ambitions; supports them in their career plans to enable them to progress to higher managerial positions. ORPEA hopes to stimulate careers and give the desire to always go further.\nWe wanted to work with a prestigious school and chose ESCP Europe for its ability to develop superior totally customised training programmes, on the basis of a State-recognised diploma.\n\u201cThe international reputation of the school, in terms of our European operations and our future development projects, was also an important factor\u2026 not forgetting of course the quality and diversity of speakers and professors who are close to the realities encountered daily by professionals participating in this type of training.\nIt is evident that we wish to continue promoting and supporting our personnel ever further in their careers. We will continue therefore with a prestigious business school like ESCP Europe and its programme whose specific curriculum gives access to the Specialised Master in Healthcare and Hospital Management and thus aim at a \"Grande Ecole\" diploma. Jean-Claude BRDENK, Vice Director General in charge of Operations, ORPEA Group.\u201d\nJean-Claude BRDENK, Vice Director General in charge of Operations, ORPEA Group\nWhich training programme?\nThis programme consists of two parts and a study trip\nThe first part includes 24 days of theory classes and enables participants to discuss strategic issues for the group's business via a dissertation: image and communication in a maligned sector, geo-marketing applied to the health sector, or the concept of residential services for the elderly. This first part of the course, which is completely customised to the needs and challenges of the group, awards the \"General Management applied to the Health Sector\" certificate.\nA study trip is organised by ESCP Europe to a university in a foreign country in order to understand the theoretical concepts that govern the activities of clinics and retirement homes outside France, as well as the practices and tools used specifically in the health sector.\nThe second part of our programme gives the opportunity for participants to access the ESCP Europe Specialised Master in \"Healthcare and Hospital Management\" in order to validate the diploma at the end of the course. The ORPEA Group thus encourages the development of skills and the employability of its personnel to support them in building their careers.\nWhat feedback?\nIn the opinion of everyone, the curriculum is \u201cfull, rich and fulfilling, giving distance on one\u2019s daily life to address the issues we are face with and understand our overall way of business better.\u201d\nThe testimony of participants and evaluations of the training programme regularly bring up the following points:\n\u201cThe modules fully address some of the more concrete topics and those more in relation to our daily business. We can see what each module brings us in managing our establishments every day and even beyond.\u201d\n\u201cThe speakers are very clear and captivating despite the highly technical subjects.\u201d\n\u201cThe speakers\u2019 visions oxygenate the mind! By being immersed in different sectors to ours, they can teach us to translate them perfectly.\u201d\n\u201cThe content is very rich and gives us a strategic vision of our environment through the tools presented.\u201d\nIn short: \u201cIt\u2019s a real pleasure!\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The Mother of the Colorado Movie Theater Shooter Has Broken Her Silence\n\"I can't erase the day, but I wish I could.\"\nOn July 20, 2012, James Holmes entered a movie screening of The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado, and started shooting \u2014 killing 12 people and injuring 70. Four years after that horrific event, James' mother, Arlene Holmes, is finally speaking out.\nShe opened up in an interview with 10News in San Diego to commemorate Mental Health Awareness Month. Her goal is to help educate parents to learn the early signs of destructive mental illness, so they don't miss what she missed in her son.\nArlene Holmes, mother of Aurora theater shooting suspect James Holmes, during a court hearing in 2014.\nArlene, a registered nurse, took James to therapy for about a year once the family moved to San Diego after a few years living further north in California. Though his behavior kept becoming more and more isolated, the family focused on having more fun to cheer him up, rather than getting him the help he needed.\nLater on, he saw a psychiatrist while he was a Ph.D. student in Colorado, and was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Even still, his parents didn't know about his diagnosis or about his violent thoughts. Arlene only found out when she was sitting in the courtroom during his trial. James received 12 consecutive life sentences without parole, in addition to 3,318 years in prison.\nJames Holmes, convicted of a mass murder at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado.\nArlene wants parents to know they're not hopeless if their child has a mental illness. \"Don't try to solve it yourself, get some help, some professional help,\" Arlene told the network. \"This is what I have to offer; I failed to be educated and I want to offer up that failure as advice to other people.\" As for herself, she'll constantly be reminded of her son's horrific activities, and wants us to think about the victims, not about her son.\n\"[The victims are] on my mind every day; it's the first thought when I wake up in the morning. I'm very cognizant of how bad this all was, and I'm praying for their healing; mentally, physically, emotionally,\" she said. \"I can't erase the day, but I wish I could. The way that I want to honor their injuries and their distress is to try and help prevent something this bad from happening again.\"\nBREAKING: Colorado Theater Shooter James Holmes Has Been Found Guilty\nJournal of Colorado Theater Shooter James Holmes Released\nWhat It Feels Like to Photograph a Mass Shooting\nColorado Theater Shooter James Holmes Sentenced to Life in Prison\nAurora Shooting Victims Must Pay Cinemark $700,000\nPierce: The Craziest TheoryAbout the Aurora Shooter",

        "title": "A Complete Guide to Diagnosing ADHD in Children and Adults",
        "raw_content": "Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a nuanced condition that has three different sub-types with symptoms that vary in terms of severity. Also, this disorder also overlaps with a ton of other conditions that often complicate and delay diagnosis and treatment. There is also lingering misinformation as well as numerous myths in the medical community, which serve as barriers to a comprehensive and accurate evaluation and medical care. The problem is that there is no single method that can be used for diagnosing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children or adults. Typically, ADHD is diagnosed when the symptoms have been exhibited for six months on a regular basis and in different settings.\nHealthcare providers including psychiatrists, pediatricians, and child psychologists can use standard guidelines for diagnosing ADHD. For this diagnosis to be made, they have to gather information from multiple sources such as parents, caregivers, and teachers. In addition, the healthcare provider will do a comparison of how the behavior of a child compares with kids from the same age groups and their behavior is documented according to standardized rating scales.\nHyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention are the common symptoms exhibited by children with ADHD. When a child suffers from this disorder, they will:\nConstantly fidget and squirm\nBe in constant motion\nFind it difficult to complete tasks\nOften lose their things\nOften be inattentive and not really listen to anyone\nA full physical exam is performed for diagnosis, which includes hearing and vision screenings as well. Other than that, the healthcare provider also asks for the complete medical history in order to ensure there are no other conditions that might be influencing the child\u2019s behavior. There are certain conditions that could mimic the symptoms and behavior associated with ADHD and they are outlined below:\nIt is already difficult for healthcare providers to diagnose ADHD in children, but with adults, it gets even tougher. Sometimes, when their son or daughter is diagnosed, parents will themselves realize that they also suffer from ADHD and never knew about it. There are also cases where adults will seek professional help and will come to realize that the depression and anxiety they are experiencing has its roots in ADHD. Therefore, the ADHD test online quiz for adults and children can be immensely helpful in figuring out what\u2019s wrong.\nApart from the symptoms of impulsiveness and inattention, adults suffering from ADHD may also experience some other issues such as:\nChronic forgetfulness and lateness\nImmediate responses and not thinking things through\nDifficulty in controlling behavior\nDifficulty in completing a task\nIf these problems are not managed properly, they can lead to a world of social, emotional, academic and occupational problems in adults. Adults are only diagnosed with ADHD when the current symptoms have been persistent from their childhood to date. Half of the children that suffer from this disorder continue to suffer from ADHD symptoms in adulthood. In order to make an accurate diagnosis, a healthcare professional will often use the following:\nA history of the behavior of the adult as a child\nA thorough physical examination, which may also involve neurological testing\nAn interview with a parent, life partner, close friend or any other associate of the adult\nIn this way, a healthcare professional will be able to determine if the adult does suffer from ADHD. Once the diagnosis has been made, proper plans for treatment can be formulated to ensure kids and adults are able to live a normal life.\nTaggedDiagnosing ADHDHealthy Tipshyperactivity disorder\nPrevious Article 6 Unexpected Ways Winter Affects Your Health",

        "raw_content": "Fifth consecutive year of net profitability demonstrates Etihad\u2019s successful growth strategy\nTotal revenue of US$ 9.02 billion on back of increased passenger and cargo volumes\nPassenger volume continues to grow faster than capacity, outpacing regional growth\nEquity strategy delivers success in network, revenue growth and economies of scale\nPartnership revenues up to US$ 1.4 billion, delivering five million passengers onto Etihad Airways network\nGrowth across group\u2019s business streams, including cargo, MRO, catering and ground handling, and frequent flier programme\nThe performance, which marked the airline\u2019s fifth consecutive year of net profitability, also saw earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of US$ 259 million, and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and rentals (EBITDAR) of US$ 1.4 billion, representing 16 per cent of total revenues.\nJames Hogan, Etihad Airways President and Chief Executive Officer, said:\n\u201cOur mandate is to build a sustainably profitable airline. A fifth year of net profits, with our best annual financial performance to date, shows that we are delivering against that goal.\n\u201cOur profitability clearly demonstrates the success of our business strategy, based on organic growth boosted by our partnerships.\n\u201cAs well as operating profitability, we are building enterprise value across the airline and its many additional business streams.\u201d\nEtihad Airways\u2019 financial statements are audited by Deloitte and are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).\n2015 performance highlights of Etihad Airways\nStrong operational performance saw improved load factor, as passenger volumes outpaced capacity increases\nEtihad Airways carried a total of 17.6 million passengers in 2015, an increase of 18.9 per cent year-on-year. The growth in passenger volume continued to exceed Etihad Airways\u2019 capacity increase and outperformed regional market growth, which has seen a decline in load factors since mid-2014.*Revenue Passenger Kilometres (RPKs), which measure passenger journeys, increased 21.3 per cent to 83.2 billion, while Available Seat Kilometres (ASKs), which represent capacity, grew by 21.0 per cent to 104.8 billion.\nIn total, the airline operated 97,400 flights covering 467 million kilometres. The average network-wide seat load factor was 79.4 per cent for 2015, compared with 79.2 per cent in 2014.\nSix new destinations were added to Etihad Airways\u2019 global network \u2013 Kolkata, Madrid, Hong Kong, Entebbe, Edinburgh and Dar es Salaam \u2013 and capacity increased on 16 existing routes with bigger aircraft, more frequency and improved seat occupancy.\nEtihad Airways\u2019 fleet increased by 11 aircraft to a total of 121 at year end. With an average age of 5.8 years, Etihad Airways\u2019 fleet is one of the youngest and most environmentally friendly in the industry. The additions included four A380-800 and four Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, while further leased capacity was also added. The A380 was rolled out on the Sydney and New York routes, and inducted on a second daily flight to London Heathrow, while the 787 began commercial operations between Abu Dhabi and Zurich, Brisbane, Washington DC and Singapore.\nPartnership strategy delivered five million passengers and $1.4 billion in direct revenues, as well as significant cost synergies\nEtihad Airways\u2019 partnership strategy, based on almost 50 codeshare agreements and its strategic minority investments in selected airlines, remained a key driver of its growth in 2015.\nA new codeshare agreement was introduced in 2015 with Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), while Etihad Airways\u2019 existing codeshares with Air Serbia, American Airlines, flynas, Jet Airways, Korean Air, NIKI and S7 Airlines were significantly expanded. As a result, Etihad Airways now offers a combined passenger and cargo network of nearly 600 destinations through its 197 interline and 49 codeshare partnerships.\nEtihad Regional was the latest addition to Etihad Airways\u2019 equity partner network, which also includes airberlin, Air Seychelles, Jet Airways, Air Serbia, Alitalia and Virgin Australia. Etihad Airways\u2019 stake in the latter increased to 25.1 per cent in 2015. Combined, the equity partners comprise the seventh largest global grouping of airlines, together flying more than 100 million guests worldwide.\nThe strategy has contributed to a large increase in sales across Etihad Airways\u2019 global network, delivering revenues of US$ 1.4 billion \u2013 an increase of 22.1 per cent on 2014 figures \u2013 and more than five million passengers onto Etihad Airways\u2019 flights. In addition, the airline and its equity partners have been able to identify and develop significant business synergies and cost savings.\nMr Hogan said the airline\u2019s return on its equity investments into the seven airlines was many times more than the money it had spent.\n\u201cFor an investment smaller than the cost of three new aircraft, we have been able to build our global network, attract five million new customers and $1.4 billion of revenues, and share massive cost synergies. That\u2019s smart business.\n\u201cThis is a two-pronged approach. From a strategic level, we are looking for the equity partners to bring network connectivity, generate additional revenues and create economies of scale. All our partners are delivering on this level.\n\u201cEach partner then has a P&L goal, which is the responsibility of its own management and Boards of Directors. Many of these, such as Air Serbia, Air Seychelles, Jet Airways and Virgin Australia, are now delivering on this level too.\n\u201cEven with an investment such as airberlin, where it has taken longer than expected for the airline to reach sustainable profitability, we are seeing incredibly strong returns directly into our business, far in excess of our original expectations. We have already received more than US$ 500 million in direct revenues to Etihad Airways and airberlin today delivers more than US$ 150 million a year in direct revenues, as well as wide-ranging cost synergies which have already reached more than US$ 100 million. In addition, the airberlin relationship is delivering a contribution of more than US$ 630 million a year to the Abu Dhabi economy. This is why we remain committed to the restructuring of that business as it moves forward.\u201d\nGlobal financial community continued to recognise success of Etihad Airways\u2019 strategy\nDuring the year, Etihad Airways was instrumental in securing a US$ 700 million financing transaction to fund expansion for the airline, its subsidiary Etihad Airport Services and five of its seven airline equity partners within Etihad Airways Partners (EAP).\nMr Hogan added: \u201cThis ground-breaking transaction was the first of its kind in the airline industry, and its success highlights the high level of confidence and support from institutional investors for our unique business strategy. It was a vote of confidence not just in Etihad Airways but in our partners too.\u201d\nIn 2015, Etihad Airways was assigned the rating of \u2018A\u2019 with a Stable Outlook, by Fitch Ratings. Fitch Ratings, one of the world\u2019s largest credit ratings agencies, issued the Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) following a detailed independent analysis of Etihad Airways\u2019 business, its commercial performance and its equity alliance strategy.\nGrowth continued across group\u2019s business streams, including cargo, MRO, catering and ground handling, and frequent flier programme\nIn 2015, Etihad Airways\u2019 strategy of diversifying from a single airline entity into a travel and aviation group delivered strong results. All major business streams, including cargo, MRO, catering and ground handling, and frequent flier programme, as well as the core airline, experienced growth.\nEtihad Airways\u2019 cargo division continued to perform well in 2015. Cargo freight and mail volumes rose four per cent to 591,000 tonnes, making it one of the world\u2019s most successful air freight operations.\nAccounting for 88 per cent of air cargo imports, exports and transfers at Abu Dhabi International Airport last year, Etihad Cargo enhanced its global reach by offering bellyhold capacity on the six new passenger routes, bringing to 96 the total number of passenger destinations on which freight was flown. Etihad Cargo also expanded its freighter services to several new markets including Dakar, Nouakchott and Douala in Africa, taking the number of freighter-only destinations operated to 20.\nA further measure of Etihad Airways\u2019 growth was the increased membership of its Etihad Guest loyalty programme. Membership numbers increased from 2.9 million to 3.75 million, representing an average of 70,000 new members each month during 2015.\nAirline continued to be a driving force in the nation\u2019s Emiratisation programme\nBy the end of 2015, Etihad Airways employed 26,566 people worldwide from more than 144 nationalities, representing a 9.7 per cent increase on the previous year. Emiratis remain the single largest nationality grouping in the airline. In 2015, the airline welcomed more than 1,200 UAE nationals to its global workforce, bringing the total number of Emirati employees to more than 3,000 \u2013 29 per cent of core staff at the national airline.\nSince its inception in 2003, Etihad Airways has been a driving force in the nation\u2019s Emiratisation programme, investing in the development of the national workforce and promoting the role of Emiratis in the aviation sector and empowering them for leadership.\nAirline recognised by industry awards throughout the year\nEtihad Airways was named \u20182016 Airline of the Year\u2019 by Air Transport World, in recognition of its outstanding growth model and commercial focus as it continued to define the landscape of modern air travel. For the seventh year running, Etihad Airways was declared the World\u2019s Leading Airline at the World Travel Awards.\nEtihad Airways Partners\u2019 (EAP) US$ 700 million landmark finance transaction was recognised as Innovative Deal of the Year by Airfinance Journal; as Emerging Europe Middle East and Africa Bond of the Year by the market intelligence organisation International Financing Review (IFR); and as Debt Financing Deal of the Year Middle East by Global Transport Finance.\n[1] CAPA report on growth of Gulf airlines\n*2015 figures shown below represent Etihad Airways\u2019 consolidated financial statements\n**2014 figures shown below represent the stand alone airline business\nRevenue (US$ billion) 9.02 7.55\nEBIT (US$ million) 259 257\nEBITDAR (US$ billion) 1.4 1.1\nNet profit (US$ million) 103 73\nTotal passengers (million) 17.6 14.8\nRevenue passenger kilometres (billion) 83.2 68.6\nAvailable seat kilometres (billion) 104.8 86.6\nSeat factor 79.4% 79.2%\nNumber of aircraft 121 110\nCodeshare partners 49 49\nPartner revenue (US$ million) 1,379 1,129\nCargo tonnage (tonnes \u2018000) 591 569",

We looked at the man finding hidden treasure in the field (Matthew 13:44) and the rich, young man asked to give up all his possessions (Mark 10:17-22).\nOften this idea can make us feel a bit inadequate\u2026 would we really be so sold out for Jesus?\nDave talked about how often it\u2019s not that we choose other things above Jesus, but we\u2019re distracted from him and his presence in our life by so many other things.\nWe looked at the story of Mary and Martha (Luke 10:38-42)\nDave\u2019s suggestions was often these distractions are a way of ignoring (or self-medicating against) some of the deep needs in our heart. Instead of going to God with our loneliness or anxiety or insecurity or stress or countless other needs, it\u2019s easier to be busy; to clean the house, watch a boxset, surf social media or any other way of escaping what\u2019s really going on in our heart.\nDave suggested all sorts of needs that Martha might have had \u2013 a need to be accepted or approved or a success or cared for \u2013 that instead of going to Jesus for them to be met she tried to distract herself and solve through her busyness.\nThe story of Mary and Martha isn\u2019t about personality types, it\u2019s about being with Jesus.\nWhat fills your empty time? What do you do when there\u2019s nothing else you need to do? Why do you do it?\nWhat does it add to your life? Look at the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23. Which of these are produced, or could be produced, by your activity? Would it help to consider this fruit and be able to be thankful as you do these things?\nLook at these passages about being whole-hearted. What might be God saying to you as you read them?\nTry building in a distraction-free time into your day. Think about a place where you usually fill the space, and leave it empty. Invite God into that time \u2013 but you don\u2019t need to pray \u2013 and see what happens.\nIt might be not turning on the radio when you drive, or leaving the TV off when you sit down after the kids are in bed. Perhaps leaving the headphones at home when you walk the dog or leaving the dishwasher until the morning",

The first picture, which El-Essawy previously uploaded earlier in the year (14), features the words 'For indeed with hardship (will be) relief', which is the meaning of the photographer's name. The second is of a woman, who appears to be El-Essawy, taking a photo at a gig.\nBeyonce previously dedicated a performance of her song Halo to El-Essawy whilst on tour, she also shared a short documentary about the photographer with fans.",

His training sessions are great. He wants us to work really hard and be positive and happy. But ultimately he wants us to get the job done.\n\u201cThe lads are buzzing when it\u2019s training time so that is positive. He wants us to play an attacking style of football which will suit this team and this football club.\n\u201cHe wants us to play at a high tempo. He doesn\u2019t want us taking too many risks. But he does want us to get crosses into the box and get chances by expressing ourselves in the final third.\u201d\nCuvelier made his first start since December in Walsall\u2019s 1-0 defeat to Portsmouth last weekend.\nThe midfielder, who has been blighted by injury over the past few years, had been forced to play to second-fiddle to George Dobson during the final few months of Whitney\u2019s tenure.\nBut he admitted he was delighted to be back in from the start for what was Keates\u2019 first game in the dugout.\n\u201cI was very happy to start,\u201d the former Stoke man said.\n\u201cWhen a new manager comes in it\u2019s a fresh start for everybody.\n\u201cMe personally, it has given me a boost of confidence. I enjoy training, I\u2019m working really hard \u2013 not just at the training ground but at home as well.\n\u201cNow I\u2019m hoping I can play a major role in helping the team stay in League One.\u201d\nMeanwhile, the Saddlers\u2019 trip to Bradford City has been rearranged for Tuesday, May 1 (kick-off 7.45pm).",

        "raw_content": "It takes little more than a quick scan through popular technology news media to see how AI is shaping 2017\u2019s tech landscape. The world\u2019s biggest consumer technology firms are putting their full research and development efforts into creating \u201csmart\u201d products and tools like Google Home, Amazon Echo and Microsoft Cortana. Even Apple is rumoured to be working on smart speaker hardware to bring the power of digital assistant Siri to a standalone product.\nThese products are designed to help users automate increasingly complex tasks by combining the power of natural language processing, advanced neural networks and integrations with thousands of web services. In a relatively short space of time, we\u2019ve moved from basic voice commands for skipping music tracks and initiating phone calls, to multi-step conversational queries that would have previously been beyond the capabilities of most home computer systems.\nA new digital age\nIt\u2019s taken a while, but we may now finally be entering a new digital age where human-computer interaction moves beyond screens and touch inputs, to a future previously only ever imagined in science fiction \u2013 screenless, conversational interactions with machine intelligence.\nAs professionals in the digital industry we recognise that this represents a fundamental shift in the way users will engage with digital content, in the same way that the touchscreen smartphone redefined the mobile web with the introduction of the iPhone 10 years ago. At the time, the proliferation of touchscreen mobile devices caught both the digital industry and brands off-guard, forcing the rapid development of new responsive frameworks and methodologies for generating flexible digital content that would work just as well on 5-inch screens as it would on 30-inch desktop monitors.\nPreparing for an AI future\nHow then do we prepare for a future where users can interact with brands and services through voice alone? What steps do we need to take to ensure digital content is accessible both to humans and to their new AI assistants?\nThe good news is that the ideas and concepts behind a web built for both humans and machines have been around for at least 20 years.\nMost individuals working in the web industry will be familiar with the concept of the Semantic Web. It was popularized through a May 2001 Scientific American article by none other than Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of The World Wide Web. His vision, originally shared in 1994 at the very first World Wide Web conference, described how \u201ca new form of Web content that is meaningful to computers will unleash a revolution of new possibilities.\u201d This semantic web would be structured using a standardised syntax, allowing web content to be readable to humans, while also having underlying semantic meaning \u2013 and therefore utility \u2013 to machines.\nUnfortunately, the complexity of the Semantic Web technology stack proved prohibitively complicated for non-technical content creators of the time, who were already quite happy working with the comparatively simple technologies of the Web. Without an imminent need to build content for machines, the popularity of the Semantic Web concept dwindled.\nHowever, in the last 10 years huge efforts have been made to keep the vision alive. Tim Berners-Lee proposed in 2006 a shift from a web of linked documents to a web of linked data. This Data Web would represent a distributed repository of information that would allow machines to combine data from multiple sources in new, more powerful ways.\nGoogle\u2019s Knowledge Graph and Wikimedia\u2019s Wikidata take this concept further, with massive Linked Data knowledge bases that can be used to serve both humans and machines far more effectively than the traditional document-based web.\nBut the World Wide Web as we know it is still a bit of a mess. The perfect utopia of the universal Data Web isn\u2019t here yet, and we have a long way to go before we can fully purge the effects of years of bad coding habits, changing browser standards and proprietary formats like Flash and Silverlight. In the meantime, tech companies continually work to improve their digital assistants\u2019 abilities to sort through our information junk pile by using increasingly intelligent neural networks and algorithms to bridge the semantic gaps we\u2019ve left behind. Most major online services also provide publicly accessible APIs that allow independent software systems to interact with them, ensuring accessibility for both humans and machines.\nAs designers, developers and marketers in the digital industry our responsibility has always been to represent brands online effectively, ensuring content is accessible and built to the latest web standards. This adherence to coding quality is now more important than ever, as users shift from directly interacting with brands via web pages to relying on the abilities of their digital assistants to access and interpret brand content for them.\nThere are many other challenges to face when considering the rising tide of smart digital assistants, but keeping the code structures behind our digital content clean, accessible and semantically correct should be the bare minimum to aim for moving forward.\nBy Joe on 24th May 2017",

Participating students must also live outside of the dorms, not bike regularly or belong to a fruit and vegetable community-supported agriculture (CSA) program.\nParticipants were randomized into three groups:\nA CSA group, which received a 10-week fruit and vegetable CSA share with education and cooking support from UW Slow Food;\nA bikeshare group, which received a 10-week membership to Madison BCycle, plus exercise support from the UHS wellness program; and\nA \u201cusual care\u201d control group.\nDr. Grabow collected baseline health measures, including BMI, blood glucose levels, lipids, physical activity and perceived stress, at the beginning of the study and after the 10-week intervention. Participants also completed a 24-hour food diary at the beginning of the study and after the intervention.\nPreliminary Findings are Encouraging\nDr. Grabow is currently analyzing study data to identify specific outcomes of the interventions, which she\u2019ll submit for future publication.\nAt the DFMCH\u2019s biannual Fellowship Symposium in December 2016, she presented preliminary findings that may help inform the feasibility of social prescription programs like FAVORx. For example, she found that although some participants in the CSA intervention group noted that they ate healthier overall, only six of the 10 people in that group attended the cooking class.\n\u201cIt [the CSA prescription] made me eat healthier, walk more; I did yoga more consistently than I did in the past,\u201d noted one participant.\nSimilarly, three participants in the bikeshare group used the service cycle extensively, but lack of proximity to the BCycle station meant that four participants didn\u2019t use it at all.\n\u201cI felt healthier definitely, and happier that I was doing something,\u201d noted another participant. \u201cPlus I didn\u2019t have to allot a certain time for exercise, it was just a part of my day, and that just made it so much better.\u201d\nDr. Grabow says the preliminary results are encouraging and appear to be promising. If their team can demonstrate feasibility, their long-term goal is to offer social prescriptions to marginalized populations in Madison and beyond.\nTo learn more about the FAVORx study, contact Dr. Grabow at grabow@wisc.edu.",

        "raw_content": "#TurnOnToElectronics Initiative Combats UK Skills Crisis\nOn the 22nd November, The UKESF (UK Electronics Skills Foundation) launched its #TurnOnToElectronics initiative, fronted by Gadget Show presenter Georgie Barrat.\nIn the face of an increasingly large skills shortage, the campaign created a buzz around the UK Electronics industry with the end goal of encouraging more young people into pursuing careers in this exciting sector.\nDespite the UK having the world\u2019s sixth largest Electronics sector (contributing towards 6% of our GDP which is over \u00a3120 million per year), only 3,330 UK students enrolled in Electronic and Electrical Engineering degrees in 2017 according to UCAS.\nThis is less than half the number enrolling in far more popular Mechanical Engineering degree courses. In addition, the Electronics skills crisis is likely to worsen post-Brexit, adversely affecting our economic prosperity.\nLaunched at The TechWorks Summit in London, the UKESF\u2019s #TurnOnToElectronics campaign is fighting back against this crisis. The campaign was publicly endorsed by eminent figures at the event, including Professor Bashir Al-Hashimi CBE, Arm Professor of Computer Engineering and Dean of the Faculty of Physical Sciences and Engineering at the University of Southampton.\nAt the Summit, the Foundation\u2019s CEO, Stewart Edmondson, and Dr Geoff Merrett, Head of the Centre for Internet of Things and Pervasive Systems, called on employers, universities and other stakeholders to join the campaign and work collaboratively with schools to attract more young people into Electronics. They asked partners and allies to formally pledge their support by downloading and reading the campaign manifesto.\nThe campaign\u2019s sponsors include leading Electronics organisations such as Arm, Dialog, and Qualcomm. #TurnOnToElectronics already has 21 academic partners including the University of Cambridge, University of Southampton and Imperial College London.\nGeorgie Barrat, the Gadget Show presenter fronting the campaign, said:\n\"I\u2019m delighted to be involved in the UKESF\u2019s #TurnOnToElectronics campaign, which is shining a welcome spotlight on careers in Electronic Engineering. Often incorrectly seen as one of the less glamorous STEM areas, studying Electronics can lead to an exciting and creative career, which enables students to make a real difference in the world.\n\"The UKESF is doing a fantastic job of encouraging more young people to study electronics and embark on a career in one of the world\u2019s most important and dynamic industries.\"",

You're in the kitchen, cracking open an egg for breakfast or a delicious baked good. But suddenly, you notice something strange by the egg yolk. A red spot, to be specific. And without warning, your mind starts racing a mile a minute with questions. Thankfully, we found the answers, so you don't have to.\nMUST-SEE: Here's Why You Shouldn't Buy Chicken With a White Stripe\nIs that red spot really what I think it is?\nIf your first thought was \"blood,\" then you're absolutely correct. A blood spot in egg (sometimes called a meat spot), is caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk surface or by another accident during the formation of the egg.\nDoes this mean my egg is fertilized?\nNO. This is a popular myth, but a blood spot in an egg is truly just a naturally occurring accident that happens on the part of the hen. Most farmers are able to catch blood spots in eggs by using candling methods, but it's nearly impossible to catch and remove every single one of them, especially those in brown eggs.\nThe American Egg Board says these eggs with blood spots are totally safe to eat. Even better, there's no nutrition lost from the blood spot being there. HOWEVER, please be wary of any color that takes over the entire egg, especially if it's pinkish. This indicates spoilage due to bacteria, and an egg like that should never be eaten under any circumstance.\nMUST-SEE: 11 Things to Eat Every Week to Lower Your Risk for Alzheimer's\nNope, it's just a spot. But can I remove it?\nWe totally get it; just because a blood spot in an egg is safe doesn't necessarily mean you want to look at it. Luckily, all you need is a spoon or the tip of a knife to remove it. But with or without it, you can treat these eggs like you would any other egg: keep them refrigerated, wash your hands before and after handling, and cook them up!\nNEXT: See the foods that sneakily drive up your grocery bill below.\nYour family members may love it, but the cost of bacon is up 34 percent, mostly thanks to a pig virus that affected the pork industry in 2013 and 2014.",

But every now and then, we\u2019re never sure about the causes. It\u2019s maybe not a dangerous disease, but it might also be a symptom of a disease.\nAnd here are 4 common reasons on what causes of itchy skin.\nThis is the most common and lightestcauses of itchy skin. There won\u2019t be any blisters or red bumps on our skin, but the sensation is there.\nThe factors are usually from outside the body, environmental causes such as too hot or cold weather, low air humidity, long term use of air conditioning or central heating, washing or bathing too much, especially using low acid soap.\nThere are so many different types of things that can cause allergy. It can be from the things outside our body or inside. Substances like wool, leather, animal fur, chemicals, cosmetics, and soap are some outside factors that can trigger the allergic reaction or irritation.\nSpecific foods can also cause allergic reaction for certain people, like allergic to seafood. Drug can also be one of the causes of itchy skin. Antibiotics, antifungal drugs or narcotic pain medications for some people can cause allergic reactions; itchy skin and rashes.\nSpotting a different color, bumps, blisters or unusual shapes on your skin? It might be the appearance of skin rashes. It\u2019s a symptom of skin conditions such as eczema (dermatitis), psoriasis, scabies, lice, chickenpox and hives.\nThe itchiness and appearance you feel might vary in those cases. That\u2019s why you should be able to understand the sensation. Like for a hives, you will find a red small ring-shaped or randomly-shaped bumps, itchy, but it\u2019s painful when touched.\nInternal or Nerve Disease\nWhen the itchiness or burn sensation on the skin gets worse, maybe it\u2019s time to not take it lightly. Because itchy skin can be a symptom of severe diseases like multiple sclerosis, diabetes mellitus, pinched nerves and shingles (herpes zoster), malabsorption of wheat (celiac disease), kidney failure, iron deficiency anemia, thyroid problems and cancers, including leukemia and lymphoma. But don\u2019t need to be panic. Go see a dermatologist, and he\u2019ll let you know what causes your itchy skin.\nSo, why I have itchy skin? Knowing the reasons on what causes of itchy skins can be helpful to perform a first aid medication and prevent it from getting worse. Being able to diagnose our self is a good thing. But that doesn\u2019t mean we get to decide the medication, because we might be wrong, unless we\u2019re a doctor. So, visit medical experts first before things get worse.",

        "raw_content": "Major breakthrough: Scientists finalize billion-piece jigsaw puzzle by cracking modern bread wheat code\nBy Gill Hyslop contact\nResearchers with the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium have cracked the wheat code. Pic: \u00a9Shutterstock\nRelated tags: Dna, Food security, Wheat, Genome, science\nScientists have finally cracked the DNA sequence code of wheat, which will undoubtedly revolutionize how the world's most important crop can continue to feed a growing global population and, more importantly, alleviate the suffering of those with celiac disease and allergies.\nRecently, wheat made headlines as this year\u2019s production is forecast to be the lowest in five years, due to extreme weather in most of the primary wheat growing areas of Northern Europe, Canada and Asia.\nWheat is in the news again \u2013 this time in a positive light \u2013 with an announcement that an international group of researchers has finally published a detailed description of the genome of bread wheat.\u200b\u200b\nThe new generation of allergen-free wheat for bakers?\n\u00a9GettyImages/piotr_malczk\n\u201cUntil now, we couldn\u2019t determine the genes that encoded those proteins,\u201d\u200b said Odd-Arne Olsen from the Norwegian University of Life Sciences. His team has now identified 356 such genes of the specific proteins responsible, of which 127 are new to science and 222 were known, but had been incorrectly sequenced.\nThe team also found that wheat produces more of the allergens behind celiac disease when grown at high temperatures, which suggests that baked goods might become more allergenic as the world continues to warm.\nUnderstanding the genes gives breeders a better chance in creating less-allergenic varieties.\nAs with all things though, it will not happen overnight.\nOlsen noted the same proteins behind wheat allergies also determine the baking quality of flour.\nSimilarly, Eversole noted that wheat varieties that contain more protein also tend to grow at lower yields.\n\u201cHaving breeders take the information we\u2019ve provided to develop varieties that are more adapted to local areas is really, we think, the foundation of feeding our population in the future,\u201d\u200b said Eversole.\nIt has been a massive undertaking, involving the efforts of 202 authors from 73 research agencies in 20 countries, and 13 years of collaborative research, at a cost of around $75m.\nTo understand the enormity of the task, the genome of Arabidopsis\u200b \u2013 the first plant to be sequenced \u2013 contains 135 million DNA letters, the human genome contains three billion and bread wheat has 16 billion, five times the size of the human genetic code.\nTo make it even more complicated, modern bread wheat has three pairs of every chromosome, one from each of its ancestral grasses.\nAbout 500,000 years ago, two species of wild grass hybridized with each other to create what we know as emmer wheat. When humans domesticated this plant, a third grass species inadvertently joined the mix, creating a hexaploid genome.\nMoreover, more than 85% of the genome is composed of repeated elements.\nGiant jigsaw\n\u201cIt\u2019s a billion-piece jigsaw puzzle with 90% blue sky and 10% clouds,\u201d\u200b said co-author Andrew Sharpe of the University of Saskatchewan, in Canada. \u201cYou can imagine putting together a jigsaw puzzle of essentially the same thing.\u201d\u200b\nA partial mapping of the wheat genome has been discovered, but this is the first time the full genome \u2013 with all 21 chromosomes \u2013 of the Chinese Spring bread wheat variety has been sequenced.\nIn the report, published in Science\u200b, researchers were able to accurately place 107,891 genes and more than four million molecular markers, as well as identify how and when those genes become active.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really a miracle that we finished,\u201d\u200b said co-author Kellye Eversole, executive director of the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC).\nWhile wheat is the largest single food source on Earth, to meet future demands of a projected world population of 9.6 billion by 2050, wheat productivity needs to increase by 1.6% each year.\nNot fully understanding the gene (known as TraesCS3B01G608800) means wheat production has lagged behind and the crop\u2019s profitability has dropped.\nThe discovery is expected to reduce the time it takes to develop new disease-resistant wheat strains by about one-third, as well as predict how new varieties will perform in the field, even before the seed is in the ground. It will also help breeders develop wheat that does well in drought, saline soil, high humidity or other previously inhospitable climates.\nThe work is also paving the way to identify the specific genes responsible for wheat allergies and sensitivity.\n\u201cHow do you thank a team of scientists who persevered and succeeded in sequencing the wheat genome and changed wheat breeding forever?\u201d \u200bsaid Stephen Baenziger, University of Nebraska\u2013Lincoln Professor and Nebraska Wheat Growers Presidential Chair.\n\u201cPerhaps it is not with the words of a scientist, but with the smiles of well-nourished children and their families whose lives have been changed for the better.\u201d\u200b\nAll IWGSC reference sequence resources are publicly available at the IWGSC data repository at URGI-INRA Versailles and at other international scientific databases such as GrainGenes and Ensembl Plant.\n\u201cShifting the limits in wheat research and breeding using a fully annotated reference genome\u201d\u200b\u200b\nAuthors: The International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC): Rudi Appels, Kellye Eversole, Catherine Feuillet, et al.\nScience, August 17, 2018: Vol. 361, Issue 6403\nThe IWGSC is a non-profit organization that was founded in 2005. Today, it has 2,400 members in 68 countries, comprising wheat growers, plant scientists, and public and private breeders.\nThe goal of the IWGSC is to make a high-quality genome sequence of bread wheat publicly available to pave the way to develop improved varieties.\nThe top five claims driving global bread purchases: High fiber takes top spot; gluten-free and high protein on lower rungs\nGenetically modified wheat variety used to make celiac-friendly bread : Study\nScientists decode cereal gene map to tackle climate change\nAncient grain genome breakthrough advances struggle for food security",

        "title": "Oscillators Explained - Forexindicators",
        "raw_content": "Oscillators are a group of indicators that confine the theoretically infinite range of the price action into more practical limits. They were developed due to the difficulty of identifying a high or low value in the course of trading. Although we may have mental concepts of what is high or low in a typical day\u2019s price action, the volatile and chaotic nature of trading means that any high can easily be superseded by another one that sometimes follows on the heels of a previous record, and negates it swiftly. In short, practice and experience tell us that prices in themselves are very poor guides on what constitutes an extreme value in the market, and. oscillators aim to solve this problem by identifying indicator levels that hint at tops or bottoms, and helping us in the decision process.\nWhy should use I oscillators?\nThere are two ways of using an oscillator. One is to determine turning points, tops and bottoms, and this style is usually useful while trading ranges only. Oscillators are also used trending markets, but in this case our only purpose is joining the trend. Highs or lows, tops or bottoms are used for entering a trade in the direction of the main trend.\nThere are many kinds of oscillators available for the trader\u2019s choice, and although they have different names and purposes in accordance with the creators\u2019 vision, there are a small number of distinctions that determine which group an oscillator falls into, and where or how it can be used, as a result.\nIt is possible to group oscillators first on the basis of their price sensitivity. Some, like the Williams Oscillator, are very sensitive to the price action. They reflect market movements accurately, but under the default configuration do not refine movements into simpler, clearer signals for the use of the trader. Oscillators like the RSI are less volatile, and are more precise in their signals, but also less sensitive to the price action, which means that two different movements of different volatility and violence may still be registered in the same range by the RSI, while the Williams Oscillator analyzes it more accurately to reflect its violent nature. Some oscillators provide limit values to determine various oversold/overbought levels, while others create their signals through the divergence/convergence phenomenon alone. In general, oscillators that provide oversold/overbought levels are useful in range patterns, others are mostly used in trend analysis.\nLet\u2019s take a look at a few examples to have an idea of the different types oscillators used by traders.\nMACD: The MACD is one of the most commonplace indicators. It is a trend indicator, and it is useless in ranging markets. MACD has no upper or lower limits, but does have a centerline and some traders use crossovers to generate trade signals.\nRSI: RSI is another commonplace and relatively aged indicator used by range traders. It is almost useless in trending markets.\nWilliams Oscillator: An excellent tool for analyzing trending markets, especially those highly volatile, the Williams Oscillator requires some commitment and patience to get used to, but it is popular, partly due to its association with the trading legend Larry Williams.\nCommodity Channel Index: The CCI is particularly useful for the analysis of commodities and currencies that move in cycles. It is not as popular as the others mentioned above, but it has been around for some time, and has stood to test of time.\nThe indicators are examined in greater detail in their own article.\nUsing the Oscillators\nEach oscillator has its own how-to of trading the markets. Some provide the aforementioned overbought/oversold levels for trade decisions, others are used by traders through various technical phenomena to generate the desired signals. But it is generally agreed that the best way of using this indicator type is the divergence/convergence method. Although this method is also prone to emitting false signals at times, it does not occur as frequently as the other technical events such as crossovers or the breach of overbought/oversold levels, and is therefore preferred over other styles of analysis.\nOscillators can be used in ranging and trending markets, and since, depending on the timeframe, even a range pattern can be broken down to smaller trends, it can also be possible to use trend oscillators in range trading as well. Creativity and experience are the main requirements for the successful use of these versatile technical tools. If you seek to use them in your own trading, it is a good idea to do a lot of backtesting, and demo trading just to get used to the parameters, and to gain an idea of what works and what does not. In time, your own trading style will develop which will determine the indicator types that you enjoy most and find most versatile and useful for you.

        "raw_content": "Tuition freeze announced at N.H. community colleges\nCONCORD \u2014 Tuition at New Hampshire\u2019s community colleges for the 2013-14 academic year will remain at last year\u2019s level after a unanimous vote Thursday by the board of trustees of the community college system of New Hampshire (CCSNH).\n\u201cNew Hampshire\u2019s community colleges deliver high quality, outstanding opportunities in career fields and transfer pathways, and they are within reach of every New Hampshire family and potential student,\u201d said Paul Holloway, chairman of the CCSNH board of trustees. \u201cKeeping community colleges affordable enables not only the economic advancement of our state\u2019s residents and families, but also the continued growth of an innovation-based economy which relies on a highly-skilled workforce.\u201d\nThis marks the fourth time since 2006 that New Hampshire\u2019s community colleges have not raised tuition. Ross Gittell, chancellor of CCSNH, said holding the line on educational costs is critical to advance New Hampshire\u2019s economy. Gittell cited research from the Georgetown University Center for Education and the Workforce showing that in order for New Hampshire to sustain current levels of economic competitiveness, the state must increase the number of residents with a college degree or certificate from 46 percent to 64 percent by 2018. Gittell said that the most economical and effective way to achieve that benchmark is to increase opportunities at the community college level. \u201cBy keeping community colleges affordable, we expand opportunities for New Hampshire residents to gain higher education and workforce skills, improve their lives and employment prospects, and support economic growth in the State,\u201d Gittell said.\nThe Community College System serves more than 27,000 learners annually, 95 percent of whom are N.H. residents. Associate degree and certificate programs prepare students for skilled employment in a wide array of career fields and for transfer to four-year colleges and universities. CCSNH recently opened a new training center in Rochester in a partnership with local employers, focused on advanced composite manufacturing training along with other college offerings.\n\u201cThe community colleges partner with N.H. employers and industry groups to meet workforce needs and create education-to-career pathways in critical industries like advanced manufacturing, health, hospitality and STEM fields,\u201d said Gittell. \u201cAffordability and access are essential to our population, from the young person just starting out on an educational pathway to the adult seeking retraining in a new career field.\u201d Gittell said the community colleges serve students of all ages, backgrounds and aspirations. The vote to freeze tuition follows passage of the state budget which increased support for CCSNH. System leaders had committed to Gov. Maggie Hassan and legislators that tuition would be frozen if the state could reverse the cuts made in the last biennial budget. After taking the vote, system leaders expressed appreciation to the governor and legislators for their support of higher education.\nIn-state tuition for the 2013-14 academic year will remain at $210 per credit, or $630 for a 3-credit course. Annually, a community college student will pay $5,040 in tuition for a minimum full-time course load. Community college courses offered to high school students through the Running Start and eStart programs for dual high school and college credit will remain at $150 per course.\nTuition through the New England Regional Student Program remains $315 per credit, and out-of-state tuition is $478 per credit.",

Nita Lowey of New York told CNN's Alisyn Camerota on \"New Day\" Tuesday.\nLowey, as House appropriations chairwoman, was part of a bipartisan, bicameral group that has been negotiating over border security to avert a partial federal government from going into effect at the end of the week.\nLowey confirmed CNN's reporting Monday night that the deal, agreed to in principle, included $1.375 billion for a barrier along some parts of the southern border. The full details of the deal have yet to be publicly released.\n\"This is not a wall. This is a barrier,\" she said. \"These are fences. I think $1.375 is a good number.\"\nAsked if the conference got any sign from the White House that the President would sign the bill, Lowey said, \"I don't listen to signals from above. I listen to the words of my colleagues who are working with me in negotiating this bill. ... I am cautiously optimistic we will get this through.\"\n\"It's a deal I think represents our values and will secure the border and do the job it's intended to do,\" Lowey told CNN. \"And by the way, along with this, are coming the other bills that we have to pass that are very, very important for the environment, for health care, for all the issues we have a responsibility to fund.\"",

        "raw_content": "McDaniels has career night as Clemson gets 10th straight home NIT win\nClemson\u2019s K.J. McDaniels was ready for the postseason, even it wasn\u2019t the tournament he had hoped for last Sunday.\nMcDaniels matched his career high with 30 points and the Tigers put aside their disappointment at missing the NCAAs to win their 10th straight NIT game at home with a 78-66 win over Sun Belt Conference champs Georgia State.\nThe Tigers, like long-shot bubble teams around the country, watched the NCAA brackets announced last weekend and prayed they\u2019d make the field of 68. When they didn\u2019t, McDaniels says Clemson\u2019s players quickly refocused and set their sights on advancing as far as they could in the NIT.\n\"We knew we had to go out there and just fight and prove that we wanted to be in it,\" McDaniels said.\nAnd if they keep playing at home, there\u2019s a strong chance the Tigers will keep moving on. Their tournament home win streak dates back to 1986 and they\u2019ll get at least one more chance to play again at Littlejohn Coliseum in the second round against either Illinois or Boston U., who play Wednesday night.\nClemson coach Brad Brownell didn\u2019t worry much about his team\u2019s attitude. After all, the Tigers had missed the postseason the past two years and were eager for more competition.\n\"That\u2019s pretty good to be ready for this and approach it the way they did,\" Brownell said. \"You could tell that your team wanted to be in this tournament, wanted to play and wanted to win.\"\nIt helps when McDaniels, the junior nicknamed \"Flight32\" is soaring like he does.\nThis was the 29th game McDaniels has hit for double figures, 13 of those with 20 or more. He matched his previous best set in a double-overtime loss at Notre Dame last month.\nGeorgia State (25-9) came in having won Sun Belt regular-season crown and 22 of its past 24 games. But like other Clemson opponents, the Panthers couldn\u2019t ground McDaniels, who broke loose for several jams and picked the ball from Ryan Harrow\u2019s hands as Georgia State\u2019s guard went in for layup with 2:50 left that drew oohs from the crowd.\n\"I\u2019m sure some of the teams that don\u2019t play him as often, you\u2019re surprised because all of a sudden you think you\u2019ve got a layup and he comes over and pins it on the glass,\" Brownell said. \"I\u2019ve seen a lot of it.\"\nGeorgia State trailed 50-49 on Ryan Harrow\u2019s basket with 12:03 left. Then Clemson took off on a 22-10 run to take control.\nR.J. Hunter, Sun Belt player of the year, led five Panthers in double figures with 15 points.\nDamarcus Harrison had 17 points and Jordan Roper 11 for Clemson. McDaniels also had five of the Tigers\u2019 nine blocked shots.\nThe Panthers\u2019 high-scoring backcourt of Hunter and Ryan Harrow struggled against Clemson\u2019s defense. Hunter shot 4 for 16. Harrow, who had a career-high 37 last time out, was 5 of 16 from the field for 13 points.\nGeorgia State coach Ron Hunter said he worried about fatigue from his players who went overtime Sunday in losing the Sun Belt tournament finals to Louisiana-Lafayette and used Tuesday\u2019s shoot-around to game plan.\n\"I told our staff I thought we were getting a little fatigued. We just played the other night,\" Hunter said. \"I saw the fatigue coming and I was using timeouts more to rest than to strategize.\"\nClemson and Georgia State had hoped to keep playing in the NCAA tournament instead of the NIT.\nThe Tigers chances ended when they squandered a five-point lead in the closing seconds of regulation before falling to Pittsburgh here in overtime on March 8. Clemson led Duke in the closing seconds of the ACC tournament quarterfinals a week later before losing 63-62.\nFor the Panthers, this was their second NIT appearance \u2014 first since 2002 when they fell to Tennessee Tech. They had a difficult task in this one with Clemson on a nine-game home NIT win streak that included three victories here in 2007 \u2014 the Tigers last NIT \u2014 on the way to a tournament finals loss to West Virginia at Madison Square Garden.",

        "raw_content": "Home News Metro Red Card\nAn Arlington Heights coach charges retaliation and racism in the treatment of his team.\nArlington Heights High School is at the center of another controversy, this one involving the alleged unfair treatment of Hispanic students. Jeff Prince\nIn January, five Arlington Heights High School soccer players, all Hispanic, were found smoking marijuana and also had beer in their room in a San Antonio hotel. The students were in town for a soccer tournament; their coach, Chad Whitt, caught them while he was making rounds checking up on his players.\nSince then, three of the five have found themselves tangled in a bureaucratic tug-of-war that Whitt charges is due in part to his own history in helping reveal problems at Heights and in part to an ongoing bias at the school that he believes results in Hispanic students being treated unfairly when it comes to discipline.\nAfter the discovery, Whitt called the district\u2019s assistant athletic director in Fort Worth for instructions and was told to call the police. The police let the students go without writing any citations. But the players\u2019 part in the tournament was over: Whitt called their parents, who had to drive to San Antonio to pick them up.\nAs punishment, the students were suspended for three days and made to attend a drug and alcohol awareness class. Whitt said recently that an Arlington Heights vice principal told him the students\u2019 future with the team was up to the coach.\nThe two students who admitted to bringing the drugs and alcohol on the trip in effect quit the team of their own accord. Whitt suspended the other three players for 10 games \u2013\u2013 roughly half the season. The three are honor roll students who had never been in trouble before, so Whitt decided to give them a second chance.\n\u201cI made the decision that they\u2019d been punished and that they learned and understood that what they did was wrong,\u201d he said. \u201cThey paid the price, and I let them back on the team.\u201d\nWhitt and the other players were eager to put the ordeal behind them. The Heights soccer program was still reeling from the death of a teammate earlier in the school year. Javier Zacarias, a 15-year-old sophomore, drowned in Lake Worth in September.\nAs it turned out, things were far from resolved.\nIn the weeks that followed, the three kids were yo-yoed on and off the team. When the trio finished the 10-game suspension, Heights Principal Sarah Weeks told the coach the kids couldn\u2019t rejoin the team after all.\nAfter more than a month of arguing and meetings, the students were told this week that they are back on the team. It took the intervention of school board trustee Jacinto Ramos to make it happen.\nThe ordeal opened old wounds for Whitt, who believes that the players were used by the district to retaliate against him for being one of its most outspoken critics. He has been a vocal supporter of Joe Palazzolo, the former vice principal turned whistle-blower who exposed widespread attendance fraud, disparate treatment of minority students, and a long list of other issues. It was Whitt and another coach who brought the attendance fraud to Palazzolo\u2019s attention.\nThe TEA verified the majority of Palazzolo\u2019s complaints. Whitt is listed as a witness for him in his upcoming wrongful termination trial. In 2011 the coach told a TEA administrative law judge that he was threatened with termination after testifying in an earlier TEA hearing on behalf of the former assistant principal.\nDistrict spokesman Clint Bond declined to comment, noting that the district is prohibited from discussing any cases involving student discipline.\nWhitt said his problems over the soccer players\u2019 treatment began when they returned from their three-day suspension from classes. The coach said he went to his immediate supervisor and asked whether the kids would be allowed back on the team.\n\u201cHe told me \u2018It\u2019s up to you as far as how long you want to hold them out,\u2019 \u201d Whitt recalled.\nAfter the students served their 10-game suspension and apologized to the team, Whitt allowed them to return in time for one of the final tournaments of the year. As is customary, he notified teachers that the students would miss a day of school to play in the out-of-town competition.\nWeeks, who is in her first year as principal of the oft-troubled school, saw the list and asked the coach why the students were still on the team.\nWhitt explained the leeway he\u2019d been given by the vice principal. The coach said Weeks had some reservations but was generally supportive of his decision.\nHowever, the following week, Whitt got a text message from Weeks telling him not to let the kids play again until the students had met with officials from the athletic department. A fellow coach assured Whitt the meeting was just a formality.\nAt the meeting, Weeks told Whitt that she had decided the kids were off the team, after Superintendent Walter Dansby affirmed it was her decision to make.\nWhitt was especially frustrated given what he sees as the school\u2019s history of disparate treatment of Hispanic students in disciplinary matters, attendance, and athletics.\n\u201cI can tell you the only reason this happened is because these kids are Hispanic,\u201d he said.\nWhen attendance fraud was going on at Heights, he said, \u201cI saw a white kid get 55 absences erased in one fell swoop, and he graduated. And the same [forgiveness] was not afforded to the other kids.\n\u201cIt\u2019s always been like that at Heights,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you have money and you\u2019re the right color, you can do whatever you want to do.\u201d\nWhitt said many non-Hispanic athletes have committed worse offenses than the soccer players, with few or no consequences. He cited two recent examples, one involving a white baseball and football player and another involving three black basketball players.\n\u201cTwo years ago \u2026 our star quarterback and star pitcher on the baseball team was busted with alcohol and tobacco in his car, and he didn\u2019t even get suspended,\u201d Whitt said. \u201cLast year [three members of] the basketball team were caught out of their hotel rooms after curfew having sex with female students\u201d in the young women\u2019s hotel rooms, \u201cand they were suspended for two or three days and immediately rejoined the basketball team.\u201d\nThe soccer players\u2019 parents asked Raul Duran, a member of the League of United Latin American Citizens, for help. Duran, a former schools employee who sued the district for racial discrimination, and Richard Gonzales, president of the LULAC local district, met with Weeks and the parents.\n\u201cBasically we were there to explain the parents\u2019 feelings and their disappointment with the decision,\u201d Duran said. \u201cOur meeting was more of an informational type meeting. We heard the position of the school district; they heard our position.\u201d\nDuran said that Weeks told the parents and LULAC representatives that Whitt should not have allowed the players back on the team and that the school\u2019s position has always been that the three should be suspended through the end of the season.\nRamos, the schools trustee who represents a predominantly Hispanic Northside district, said he was approached by one of the players and by LULAC in hopes that he could convince the administrators to reconsider.\nHe met with the three students. \u201cThey said they had done everything that was asked of them, and they thought that they were going to be able to get back on the team,\u201d Ramos said. \u201cThat\u2019s when I called [the district\u2019s athletic director] Kevin Green and Mr. Dansby, and [asked them] to take another look at what the boys had been told.\u201d\nWhitt said that soon after that, he received a phone call from Dansby, who told him that it is indeed the coach\u2019s responsibility to determine how long a player is suspended. Whitt put the trio back on the team.\nLast week, Whitt filed a grievance against Weeks on an unrelated matter. The principal, he said, placed a letter of concern in his record for failing to contact a parent about a disciplinary matter. Whitt said he was absent from school on the day he was supposed to have contacted the parent and has an e-mail from a vice principal telling him it was not his responsibility to contact the parent anyway.\nHe maintains that his role in Palazzolo\u2019s saga is the reason for many of his clashes with administrators. Palazzolo\u2019s wrongful termination lawsuit against the district will be back in court later this month.\n\u201cI don\u2019t believe it [the pressure on him] is coming from [Weeks],\u201d he said. \u201cI believe that it\u2019s coming from downtown.\u201d\nPrevious articleGallery\nNext articleBLKrKRT: Beat Bombs\nweeks should have stayed in Benbrook where she belongs, with higher income people. She is cold and has no understanding with families from rougher walks of life.\nRaul Duran March 5, 2014 at 4:14 pm\nDuring Mr. Griffey\u2019s interview of me for this article, I mistakenly used the title of \u201cDistrict President\u201d to describe Mr. Richard Gonzales. As a point of correction, Mr. Gonzales is the President of LULAC Chapter 4916. Ms. Mary Hernandez is our LULAC District Director. I apologize for my unintentional mistake.\nAna S. March 6, 2014 at 9:18 am\nMs. Weeks was the principal for many years of the predominantly Hispanic McLean 6th grade school, and was well liked, respected, and just. The problem at Heights, and Paschal as well, is one of how influential your parents are, which many times falls along race lines.\nThere are many stories at Heights and Paschal of students whose parents are Booster Club or PTA board members who don\u2019t receive the same treatment as students whose parents are not influential. Last year at the first dance at Paschal, several students arrived drunk. One girl in particular threw up everywhere. But she is the daughter of a Booster club member and PTA officer. She received zero consequences. The story is well known in the community. These parents want breathalyzers at dances, but not from police officers. They want a private company to do them so that if their child is drunk, they get a phone call to come pick them up and not have to deal with police. \u2018They are just being kids, we don\u2019t want them to have a police record for something all kids do\u2019. But if the child does not have influential parents, is not in the \u2018in-crowd\u2019, then by all means suspend him, lock him away, move him to another school. We don\u2019t want him poisoning our perfect babies. Double standard by the parents and administrators who are too afraid to stand up to them. Always has been at these two schools and always will be. Let\u2019s not even get started about the Heights baseball team and alcohol.\nobserver March 7, 2014 at 11:55 am\n\u2013 James Lane Allen\nSo much for Weeks.\nFed up March 6, 2014 at 10:30 am\nI\u2019m surprised that Needham let Mr. Ramos poach on her territory. He should probably watch out because we all know she doesn\u2019t like anyone interfering with Heights.\nConcerned March 6, 2014 at 11:28 pm\nThis is just one of the most recent issues in a long, long list. Just check out Fort Worth Fights Facebook page. In my opinion, Needham IS the problem at AHHS and FWISD. Over 30 Teachers, Coaches and an Administrator (Palazzolo) reported AHHS for the very same issue four years ago. Palazzolo finally took the complaints and evidence to TEA who sustained his report. Did the Board do anything to correct the \u201caffluenza\u201d double standards, falsification of attendance, or theft of $$$ and equipment? No. At Needham\u2019s direction FWISD went after him and fired him twice. Meanwhile the person who personally changed thousands of unexcused absences, and was paid to spend the summer searching Palazzolo\u2019s office, computer and e-mail, still works for FWISD \u2013 even after FWISD was fined and forced into an approved, attendance control plan. Others took the same info and filed with Dept. of Education. Nothing. Last year under Oliver, we learned that minority Special Needs children at AHHS had been defecating for two (2) years in a potty chair in their classroom. Did anything happen? No. Oliver got promoted after taxpayers funded his education for coursework taken during the school day. These stories have been well documented by Betty Brink and Eric Griffey. Yet and still, people re-elected Needham, Robbins and Sims. (Dansby and Sims are at this very moment in violation of their own Board Policy and perhaps State Law by having hired direct blood relatives). This year Needham (allegedly) \u201casked\u201d the FWISD Director of Athletics Kevin Green to remove an outstanding AHHS Teacher and Coach (retired Military man) as Varsity Girls Volleyball Coach. Green (who is rumored to be having an affair with his secretary) complied. Who did FWISD hire? A 62 year old, uncertified, \u201cclose personal friend\u201d of Needham\u2019s with no classroom experience. Dansby proposed and the Board approved his hiring as a certified teacher and coach even though he is neither. The corruption is deep and will remain as long as incumbent Board Members are re-elected. Remember that during the School Board elections next year. Needham\u2019s personal vendetta against Palazzolo comes to the courtroom in 12 short days. It of course began because Palazzolo dared apply to rules for alcohol and drugs to all students \u2013 not just minorities. Why is anyone surprised Needham \u201callowed\u201d Cinto to help these students? After all, they are Hispanic.\nJustice March 6, 2014 at 11:44 pm\nGREAT story Eric! Let me get this straight; Raul is a \u201cmember\u201d of LULAC, suing the district for discrimination and pulls in a top dog at LULAC to help represent 3 ISD Hispanic students at Heights\u2026for discrimination!!!??? WTH Raul? And you all held court with the district and did nothing for these kids why??? The ever almighty LULAC, not so almighty after all, b/c it took a Trustee from another district, to go in and turn the wrongs into rights! Where has Needham been in all this, considering AHHS is in her district? Oh, my bad, the kids being scrutinized aren\u2019t white; otherwise, she would be all over that like \u201cWhite on rice\u201d, pun intended! In my opinion, LULAC is nothing more than a political entity with an agenda. One only has to look at the fact that Raul stuck his big nose in this ordeal, only to pull his facade of being important, around the offices of FWISD! Come on Raul, we see right through you! We all know you are using these 3 Hispanic kids to show off to FWISD that you have \u201cDa power\u201d and they should be scared of you! You \u201ctalk the talk\u201d, but fail to \u201cwalk the walk\u201d, just like you have pretended helping Palazzolo. When the tough get going\u2026you take a shortcut through the ISD woods and mow anyone down, who does not help you get what you want! This stint of yours and LULAC, pretending to care about our Hispanic kids in this district, is such a farce. Don\u2019t think we have forgotten how LULAC supported the corrupted Sylvia Reyna, former Chief at FWISD, who was the catalyst behind the witch hunt against Palazzolo, considering she was in charge of AHHS/Palazzolo investigation. YOUR LULAC supported her so much so that they publicly acknowledged Reyna as being the best candidate for Superintendent, when Johnson left. She is also the same evil person, who probably ordered the bullying against all other AHHS staff, who supported Palazzolo, to include Chad Whitt, as well as ordering Sharon Herrera\u2019s position, as Cultural Diversity Trainer, be dissolved in retaliation for Sharon supporting Palazzolo. In my eyes LULAC, you have NO credibility in the Latino community AT ALL! Leave it to Cinto to bring much needed justice! Cinto, I look forward to seeing you on a much larger ballot in the near future, than with a school district, which has continuously slammed our Latino employees and students to the ground for many years! I can\u2019t wait for March 18th for Palazzolo versus FWISD, to watch the malicious bigoted bullies fall to disgrace!\nFed up March 7, 2014 at 12:37 pm\nAfter so long and so much nonsense, I am skeptical that a trial will take place. Just like last time the district will make a last minute settlement offer and after some negotiating a deal will be reached. I know all of us on the sidelines would love to see a trial, especially one that would expose all of the bad actors in this horrible melodrama for exactly who and what they are but it isn\u2019t likely to happen. Truely no one can blame Joe for settling, if that does happen, after so long. I know I would love to hear all the juicey testimony from that group we love to hate. You all know them, the ones responsible for this mess but I don\u2019t believe it will happen.\nTo Fed up March 7, 2014 at 3:46 pm\nDon\u2019t know where you have been or who you were reading or listening to but NEWSFLASH\nno deal \u201cwas reached\u201d. Easy to kick back and talk smack behind the veil of anonymity isn\u2019t it? This article is proof nothing has changed at AHHS or FWISD. At least Palazzolo is still fighting. And this time he has a REAL attorney.\nK.STEEL March 8, 2014 at 7:21 am\nWOW! This is a great example of how people without all the facts,all the information make \u201cstories\u201dhappen.Two sides to all events folks,are you sure this was a comprehensive and simple fact story? No personal issues brewing under the guise of \u201cfreedom of speech\u201d?This article is tainted by personal issues that come from both the Fort Worth Weekly and their staff.I\u2019m keeping it on the bottom of the birdcage as always.\nlindalabeau March 24, 2014 at 7:48 am\nFACT: AHHS committed attendance fraud. FACT: Students were graduated without sufficient credits in 2010. FACT: Izzie Perry stole Booster funds. FACT: Judy Needham intervened on behalf of Chuck Boyd and Neta Alexander. FACT: FWISD hired investigators to travel of OKC in an attempt to discredit Mr. Palazzolo\u2026.to no avail. FACT: FWISD has wasted countless sums of money in an attempt to defend the indefensible. Meanwhile, the adults within the administration are acting like oversexed, drug and alcohol adolescents, themselves. Something they have zero tolerance for the children to whom they are to be an example. If the citizens of Fort Worth would pay close attention to this school district ala PEYTON PLACE, they would be appalled at how closely the adult behavior mirrors the teens. The tax dollars wasted on FWISD is criminal. When the matter of the Booster Club theft was brought to Asst. DA Lobininger, he was told the district did not want to press charges. Since when is a crime not a crime? When FWISD says so. The citizens of Fort Worth should hang their heads in shame for allowing the likes of Board Trustees such as Judy Needham run her fifedom on the backs of taxpayers.\nAnn.Sutherland May 24, 2016 at 6:40 am\nThis is the best post among these. Good work Linda.\nThere is another story brewing about an East side school.\nPurveyor of truth March 8, 2014 at 2:20 pm\nFed-up: You clearly have not kept up with AHHS/Palazzolo case since its inception; otherwise, you would know where this case has been and where it is now! You would also know that it is NOT Palazzolo, who has deliberately gone through every legal loophole the past four years of litigation, at the tune of almost 1 mil of taxpayer money spent, to delay the inevitable, which is justice for being retaliated against and fired!!! The man simply wanted, and still wants, his job and good name back! Yes, he has been caught in this legal battle for this long, b/c of certain greedy money grubbing people with hidden agendas and backhanded deals! These \u201cpeople\u201d are at the epicenter of this fiasco, because of what they have done and how they have done it\u2026to Palazzolo and his family. Palazzolo has been dragged through the mud, all in retaliation for trying to bring forth malfeasances. They haven\u2019t wanted Palazzolo back into the district; because they know he will probably reveal more, because THERE IS MORE! Fed-up, it takes guts to stand for what is right and lose your job, finances, reputation, security, and more. Would you do it? Probably not! He took the fall to bring the misuse and abuse to the surface! Others who have lost their jobs or had to retire because they were in support of Palazzolo, or they themselves were the people, who gave him the scandalous information, are still reeling from this district\u2019s bullying tactics. But no more, thanks to his new and professional legal counselors. And to K-Steel, make jokes about lining your birdcage with the Weekly; they have been the only paper with the guts to report the TRUTH, unlike the Telegram-less crap you all call a \u201cNewspaper\u201d. We will see who laughs last, when this comes out\u2026again\u2026next week, but with more challenges on FWISD to tell the truth once and for all! Palazzolo has already been judged and crucified by this district\u2019s evildoers. It is time for the truth to rise!\nK.STEEL March 8, 2014 at 10:48 pm\nIf you think this is the truth- then you don\u2019t really know all that went on and continued as the man was sent out as the principals personal attack dog.He manhandled students, teachers and went beyond all right bullying students by sequestering them in the bathrooms at dances and insisting they were drunk and he would\u201dget them\u201d.He was a loose cannon at best, and an outright threat to many teachers and students.The truth- this paper is far from it\u2026.and note- I never mentioned the startlegram either as a alternative source.But to just buy this story.Two sides hun-always two sides.\nFrustrated March 9, 2014 at 1:42 pm\nWow KSTEEL, did I strike a nerve or what? You obviously have ONE situation you think you know so much about that YOU are holding on to shards of one-sided info! The principal\u2019s \u201cattack dog\u201d? Let me guess; you\u2019re either Izzy Perry, the parent of the girl caught, who lied btw, or a disgruntled teacher, who probably slacked off! No matter, you\u2019re entitled to your humorous opinion! For your information, \u201cHun\u201d, statements were taken and investigated, and unless you are the police officer who conducted the investigation, you have nothing, except your opinion. Joe is exactly what AHHS needed, and other schools for that matter, to help many teachers come forward and report wrongdoings. I get my info from the source, KSteel! Who do you get your info from, Judy Needham? And \u201cnote\u201d, I made reference to the Telegram, b/c you said you were using this paper \u201cto line your birdcage\u201d! If you hate that the weekly doesn\u2019t print facts, then go to the Telegram to make your comments there on stories about this case. Oh wait, the Telegram doesn\u2019t print stories about this case, b/c they make FWISD look bad; so, good luck! Let us know how that works out for you! We\u2019ll let you know about \u201ctruth\u201d in Decatur on March 18th!\nReally? March 10, 2014 at 11:45 am\nI am a LULAC member and I must respond to Justice\u2019s (what a misnomer!) comment; if nothing else, so that the readers, and hopefully, Justice, can learn a little about LULAC. The League of United Latin-American Citizens is a nationwide organization that advocates for the civil rights of Latin-Americans. Justice is very critical of two of our local members from Chapter 4916. As far as I was able to ascertain, from Mr. Griffey\u2019s article, these two gentlemen did exactly what they were called on to do\u2014 they helped convey the distressed feelings of the parents and students and advocated on their behalf to get them back on the team. When first denied, LULAC advocated for the boys to a board member who had direct access to the superintendent, and lo and behold, the boys are back on the team!\nIt was a little difficult to understand if the focus of Mr. Griffey\u2019s article was on the plight of the boys and their parents or on Coach Whitt and Joe Palazzalo. I do find it funny that Justice is so willing to criticize an organization\u2019s successfull effort. But we LULAC members are used to others trying to show us how to do things\u2014 usually without their ever having a relationship with or wanting to protect the best interest of the Latin-Americans involved. By the way, Justice, it was not LULAC Chapter 4916, or any of that chapter\u2019s members, who spoke on behalf of Sylvia Reyna. You should also know that Mr. Palazzalo\u2019s new attorney is a lifelong LULAC member.\nTo Really March 10, 2014 at 2:46 pm\nReally: As you state in your own comment, your only source of info in this matter is the article. I did not read Justice\u2019s comment as being critical of \u201ctwo of our local members\u201d but rather one \u2013 a person known to many FWISD employees. The gentlemen quoted has not been forthright. You should know that were it not for Coach Whitt, and another LULAC member and mother from AHHS, those three players would be gone \u2013 no thanks to LULAC Fort Worth. Many of those commenting here are Latino and LULAC members. The Fort Worth Chapter cannot be compared to the Dallas Chapter in terms of effectiveness or advocacy. Their misguided support for Sylvia Reyna was simply another example of being out of touch with their members, several of who were Reyna\u2019s victims.\nReally? March 10, 2014 at 4:54 pm\nIt\u2019s hard to teach someone who just doesn\u2019t want to listen. Griffey\u2019s article states that, after being contacted by the boys\u2019 parents, Duran, Gonzales, and the boys\u2019 parents all met with Weeks and they conveyed the sentiments of the parents and the boys to Weeks. Justice, in his/her blanket condemnation of LULAC does specify Duran as one of his/her targets, but, with Gonzales also being a LULAC chapter president, the condemnation of Gonzales is certainly also made clear. So my statement that Justice is critical of both gentlemen is certainly accurate to those who have even a basic understanding of reading comprehension.\nPlease understand that throughout the metroplex there are dozens of LULAC chapters; each with their own officers and members and with their own focus on issues affecting Latin-Americans. What one chapter does may not always include any other chapter; although there have been issues where individual chapters unite in a common cause. So, there is no Fort Worth LULAC or even a Dallas LULAC. To Really, Duran\u2019s and Gonzales\u2019 LULAC chapter 4916 is based in Arlington and, as already stated, was not the chapter that advocated for Reyna.\nIt\u2019s interesting that Justice and To Really cannot see that if it were not for that first meeting with Weeks, nothing and nobody, including Coach Whitt, were able to get the ball rolling that eventually got the boys back on the team. Of course, one can never see if always blinded by criticism. My hat\u2019s off to LULAC 4916 and its members!\nFed-up March 10, 2014 at 5:10 pm\nWOW Purveyor and that other person who talks about anonymity but could only sign in as To Fed Up did you read what I wrote? My information has always been what\u2019s been printed in the Weekly. I don\u2019t know anyone, to the best of my knowledge, that\u2019s directly involved in the case. Purveyor I know you have read my blogs before on this because you\u2019ve replied to some of them so you should know I am 100% for Joe. The other guy, I don\u2019t care what you know but here\u2019s my point. I want a trial, I want every SOB involved in Joe\u2019s persecusion to be exposed so the public can see just how bad things are in the district and he can be vindicated. However, when we thought he had a \u201creal\u201d lawyer before, a last minute settlement was reached that the district later renigged on. Even with new lawyer, a settlement is a possibilty. It is up to Joe and his lawyer to decide what they do if such an offer is made. NOBODY in the administration wants this to go to trial. They all know how bad the results can be. That\u2019s all I said before. Purveyor, I hope this will clarify my position to you. The other guy, I don\u2019t care who you are, what you think or if you understand my position on this matter.\nPurveyor of truth March 10, 2014 at 7:39 pm\nFed-up: The reason for my disdain toward you is that you obviously didn\u2019t have facts about the trial and the fact that Joe didn\u2019t get an agreement. If you have read all of the articles thus far, you would know that very important fact. Joe was ready to settle, he has been ready! However, as reported before, Dansby and Needham, along with the ruthless Smith and district attorneys, made an agreement in very bad faith. it just sounded like you were dissing Joe, not supporting him. This whole fiasco has left a bad taste in my mouth and the mouths of many, by acknowledging that this district is as corrupt as it is and no one has cared, until Joe came along and sacrificed the last 4 yrs of his life to bring them to court. I can\u2019t say I would ever have the patience or the strength to go through all of this and still be alive to tell their story.\nJustice March 10, 2014 at 7:10 pm\nReally,\u201cReally\u201d?! I know who you really are, judging from the pompous attitude about YOUR organization, which in my opinion, is selective on whom they advocate for! If you ask me, you threw your own \u201cLULAC brethren under the proverbial bus\u201d, insinuating YOUR chapter is better for advocating for the students, while the \u201cother chapter\u201d spoke up for the defunct Reyna. It doesn\u2019t matter which chapter it was or not; the bottom line is that LULAC shouldn\u2019t stick their noses into it, when they know NOTHING about whom they are supporting, like that corrupt witch, Reyna! If people only knew what she did to manipulate and disgrace good employees amidst the onset of the AHHS/Palazzolo fiasco. Thankfully, Reyna\u2019s contention for Super candidacy was laughed at and she took herself out of the running! I was at that board meeting, when \u201cthe other chapter\u201d spoke on her behalf\u2026it was a joke! And now, YOUR chapter, 4916, was \u201cdenied\u201d with FWISD, until the real guy with power came to your rescue! As far as Ms. Neave being a lifelong member; she apparently belongs to the Dallas chapter, which in comparison to FTW, is a lot more reputable. If your statement, \u201cLULAC is an organization that advocates for the civil rights of Latin-Americans\u201d is true, ALL Latin Americans should be represented equally, but they are not! Where were you guys, when Sharon Herrera, a Latin American, was bullied to quit after she testified in favor of Palazzolo? Where were you, when the bullying didn\u2019t work, so they dissolved her department and moved her into a department under the bullying barracuda, Dr. Diaz, who also bullied her mercilessly? So, was the 4916 busy that day or what?\nFWISD is comprised of 68% Latino students, and don\u2019t get me started on the % of Latin Americans, who work for this district! There are LOTS of Latinos being discriminated against, bullied, retaliated on, and harassed and then some. Look at the number of failing schools within our district in predominately Latin communities, which are plagued with pregnant teens, gang violence, drug abuse and dropouts. Where is LULAC there? I don\u2019t hear of LULAC advocating for squat, when those very schools are intentionally set up to continue to fail, in order to acquire more money from the Feds for the district\u2026NOT for the actual school! What LULAC needs to do is advocate that this godforsaken district gets rid of the corruption on the school board and press to hire a Hispanic Superintendent to meet the needs of the minority majority! Yes, \u201cReally\u201d, I DO KNOW what LULAC is and what it SHOULD be, but regrettable, isn\u2019t! Yep, I work in the trenches with, and advocate for, MY \u201cbrethren\u201d on a daily basis! Do you??? I don\u2019t think so, because YOUR brethren have a tendency to sell out for \u201csacks of silver\u201d!\nMoving Forward March 11, 2014 at 9:57 am\nSounds like we can all agree on one thing: the desperate need to reform FWISD. We need to ensure in the coming School Board elections that the Hispanic Community in particular gets out the vote to rid the Board of vindictive and self-serving incumbents (Jackson) and\ndinosaurs (Moss). If we do not, millions will continue to be wasted on frivolous litigation, our children will continue to suffer and good people who have sacrificed to bring this all to our attention like Palazzolo, Whitt, Herrera, and the AHHS teachers and coaches will continue to be persecuted. Dansby has continued the legacy of corruption started by Tocco. He has done it with the approval of the Board. Look at the promotions and raises; the employment of relatives, girlfriends, etc. the increasing number of retire-rehires. Can you actually believe the Board approved retiree Paul Galvan as Poly Principal? OUTRAGEOUS!\ndirty play March 14, 2014 at 6:46 pm\nELECTIONS ARE COMING AND WE NEED TO GET THE VOTE OUT..\nWE NEED MORE TROOPS TO GET RID OF THE MESS IN FWISD\nI agree that FWISD needs a desperate face lift and oust the old regime to bring in the new, who if they don\u2019t get caught up in the politics, will give this district much needed improvement. Jackson has Needham\u2019s support and it may be a tough incumbent to get around to a point of losing her seat. Let\u2019s face it, Moss is just a front person for Needham, because everyone knows Needham calls the shots on that board. I for one hope that they lose. Isn\u2019t Galvan one of the district\u2019s closers? I continue to hear his name emerge every time someone falls from grace within the district. I\u2019m still holding out for the demise of some major players inside this district, so we can give the kids and employees of this district a chance to succeed in a more positive school culture.\nWe need to put candidates against Jackson regardless of whether she is a tough incumbent. Once the trial comes and we hear the truth then we can let the public know how treacherous this person is. Let\u2019s not give up before we get started, there will be candidates against and we will need to support them. Those of us here who are tired of the mess, let\u2019s use our anger and help campaigns and bring people to vote!!\nGregg Orange April 5, 2014 at 10:17 am\nI was under the assumption that it was required that all attendees at AHHS dance events were to be intoxicated on malt liquor in the first place. The parking lot is generally full of ice chests packed with the stuff. 40 oz. bottles of Mickey\u2019s, Colt 45, O E 800, Hurricane Ice, etc., are being guzzled down with near alarming regularity at these events. What\u2019s the big deal?",

        "raw_content": "Dieback management in Western Australia\nposted on July 25, 2011 by Piers Higgs | Comments Off on Dieback management in Western Australia\nOn Friday I gave a talk and demonstration of the Dieback Information Delivery and Management System (which has the best acronym I\u2019ve seen in a long time, DIDMS), with Annabelle Bushell from South Coast NRM Inc (SCNRM) at the Dieback Information Group (DIG) Conference.\nSince late last year, Annabelle and I have been working with the team here at Gaia Resources, and a whole range of stakeholders to develop a state wide system for the management of dieback information. If you are not sure what dieback is, I will point you here, because that says it clearer than I could. It\u2019s a $1.6 billion dollar threat, and I think it is still poorly understood apart from the small core of professionals who work with it and undertake research into it, like the people who go to the DIG conference.\nAnnabelle and I gave a presentation about the DIDMS project, as it stands at the moment. I didn\u2019t go live given the short time for the presentation, so I thought as a follow up I\u2019d record a live demo and then put it up as a Youtube video so that people can watch it and get more detail.\n(as a side note, this is the first screencast I\u2019ve recorded using Camtasia, which seems to be a pretty useful product!)\nI once described the DIDMS project as being the map table in the middle of a war planning room. The DIG attendees are definitely fighting a battle against dieback, and on a range of fronts. What the DIDMS will enable is for them to do that in a co-ordinated fashion, by sharing the data they want to, and then being able to report and analyse the data that they are working on. It\u2019s very exciting to be involved in this type of work, because it shows how our work as a bunch of developers and analysts can deliver real benefits to those working to protect and conserve the natural environment.\nDIDMS is another instance of the Biological Data Recording System (BDRS), an open source system we are developing for the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA). In this case, the ALA isn\u2019t funding DIDMS, but the SCNRM is, and we\u2019re building on top of the BDRS using this funding. This ongoing development of the BDRS, from various sources of funding, has turned the BDRS into a heavyweight application that can deal with just about any biological data you want to record, and it comes with mobile and desktop solutions included. If you are technically minded (i.e. you can develop in Java), you can go to the rather unassuming site here, check out the code, compile and install it on your own server. We\u2019re actively continuing to work on the software for a range of different groups, so this software will change and develop as time progresses.\nOver the next couple of months as we finish up the DIDMS project we will put more information about it up here in the blog to show where this project is going, and to demonstrate the real world benefits it is having.\nYou can contact me for more information via email or Twitter, or leave a comment below.\n\u00ab Developers + Fieldwork = ?\nWASEA 2011 \u00bb\ncorals citizen science archives museum open source open data collections Drupal spatial recruitment software engineering standards web development QGIS dieback BDRS training mobile analysis bioinformatics drones web mapping business data Environment gis rasters foss4g apps CollectiveAccess GRID conference leaflet workshop support Remote Sensing environmental health geoserver serverless archivematica nrm awards atom end of year science",

In a nutshell the decree prescribes that:operators need to go through an authorization process relating to their platform and each game they intend to offer; the gaming tax applicable on cash games and casino games is 20% of the revenues (i.e. turnover net of amount returned to players);at least 90% of the amount collected from players is allocated to the prizes;the maximum initial stake cannot be higher than \u20ac 1,000.Also, the decree increased up to \u20ac 250 the maximum buy-in for skill games (including tournament based poker games) and also allowed the organization...\n27 Jan Betfair Case: New Scenario in the Italian Gaming Market?\nPosted at 23:13h in aams, gambling, gaming, Italy by Giulio Coraggio\nIt seems that the tolerance of the Italian Gaming Authority (AAMS) to the unlawful offer of remote games to Italian residents in absence of an Italian remote gaming license has now reached an end. AAMS has challenged to Betfair Italia, the company of the Betfair group holding an Italian remote gaming license (under which it runs the website www.betfair.it) the breach of the provisions of the Italian gaming license agreement prohibiting the offer, also through affiliate companies, of games to Italian residents in breach of Italian law. Indeed, Italian law allows the offer of remote games to Italian residents only under an Italian gaming license. However, despite of the applicable sanctions, apparently Betfair was still offering its games to Italian...\n22 Jan Google Dispute Opens to New Regulations on IPRs\nPosted at 17:51h in e-commerce, intellectual property, Internet, Italy, liability ISP by Giulio Coraggio\nThe Italian Competition Authority (AGCM) has now closed the proceeding against Google concerning the abuse of dominant position with reference to Google News, subsequently extended also to Google AdSense. The Italian Competition Authority has accepted the undertakings submitted by Google relating to: the setting up of a dedicated software allowing editors to \u201copt-out\u201d to Google News i.e. to prevent their news to be displayed among Google News results without affecting their indexing among Google Search results; and the implementation of a higher level of transparency in the revenue sharing criteria implemented in the management of Google AdSense.However, this decision is interesting also because it gave the opportunity to the Italian Competition Authority...\n19 Jan Are you in London next week?\nThe main topic during this week in the gaming industry seems to be\u2026, are you in London next week?Well, I will be in London from the 23rd to the 25th attending the Legal Gaming in Europe Summit 2011 and on the 25th the ICE.Do you want to meet up to discuss about the Italian gaming market in front of a good English beer?

The document attached to the public consultation notice sets out the guidelines of the regulations that AGCOM is willing to issue and addresses specific questions to operators interested in joining (within 60 days) the consultation.

According to the EU Regulation 44/2001 on the jurisdiction and the enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, the courts of the domicile of the consumer have jurisdiction in case of disputes between a trader and a consumer based in two different EU Member States when the former \u201cdirects such activity to that Member State\u201d.The ECJ clarified the scope of such provision in relation to websites stressing that the mere accessibility of a website on the Internet is not sufficient to meet such \u201ctargeting requirement\u201d but:\u201cthe trader [i.e. the...\n03 Dec Casino Games and Cash Games Saga Almost Over!\nPosted at 19:04h in cash games, casino, decision, gambling, gaming by Giulio Coraggio\nThe never ending saga of the Italian decree regulating cash poker games and casino games seems to be almost over. The Administrative Court of Lazio Region rejected the claim brought by one of the major Italian gaming operators, Microgame, against the decree. Indeed, earlier this year, the Administrative Court of Lazio Region had ordered the temporary suspension of the efficacy of decree because of the alleged inconsistency between the decree notified to the European Commission and the one subsequently approved by the Italian Gaming Authority (AAMS).Pending the temporary suspension of the decree, AAMS re-notified the decree together with all its technical specifications to the European Commission and the court now held that such second notification has actually \"cured\" the challenged...\n01 Dec Italian VLT Market: The first Data\nAfter the launch of the videolotteries (VLT) in the Italian gaming market, now it is time to see what happened in the last months. Here is the first information available:around 4,500 VLTs have been installed so far out of almost 57,000 VLTs that operators are entitled to install and 253 VLT gaming halls have been opened (of which over 100 belong to Lottomatica); during the month of October 2010 the VLTs collected \u20ac 116 millions (i.e. more than \u20ac 3.5 millions per day) which makes the need to implement a proper system for the management of payments crucial;the current VLT manufacturers that have successfully completed the testing phase with SOGEI are Inspired, Novomatic, Spielo and Ace Interactive, while Bally Technologies, BetStone...\n21 Nov Data On Italian Gaming Market: The Best is Yet To Come\nPosted at 08:07h in aams, bingo, cash games, casino, gambling, gaming, Italy, skill games by Giulio Coraggio\nThe Italian Gaming Authority has now published the \u201cOfficial Data On Remote Gaming\u201d reviewing the data generated by the sector during this year up to 31 October 2010.I believe there are no major surprises: while horse betting games are suffering a deep crisis with a decrease of the value of bets of 12.9%, fixed odd sports betting sector saw an increase of 10.7% reaching a value of over \u20ac 1bn, even if it showed a negative trend during the last months. However, skill games, which primarily include poker tournaments, have seen an amazing increase of 41.7% compared to the previous year with a volume of buy-ins of over \u20ac 2.6 bn.

Picture: Hannah Fountain (hrfphotography.co.uk).\nFC CLACTON manager Tom Austin says the returning Billy Wales will bring quality and versatility to his Seasiders squad.\nThe midfielder, who has made more than 250 appearances for the club, has rejoined after a short spell with neighbours Holland FC.\nThe move was finalised on Monday night and Wales should go straight into the squad for Saturday's Thurlow Nunn League premier division trip to Kirkley and Pakefield.\n\"Billy's a Clacton lad and someone who's spent most of his career here, so it's great welcoming him home to the Bowl,\" Austin told the Gazette.\n\"He's a popular lad in the changing room and the fans love him, too.\n\"He's very versatile and the great thing is that wherever you play him, he looks comfortable.\n\"When he plays out wide, he whizzes past people before producing great deliveries into the box.\n\"When he plays at left-back, he's solid and uses the ball well.\n\"And when he's in midfield, he tackles, wins the ball and drives past people.\n\"He's just a very natural, talented player who will bring great value to our team.\"\nAustin wanted to pep up his squad and believes Wales could be a vital part of the jigsaw, in terms of the club's quest to finish in the top ten. They are currently 13th.\n\"I felt we needed to freshen things up a bit anyway and, fingers crossed, Billy will be in the squad for Saturday,\" said the Clacton boss.\n\"He hasn't played much in the last month and will need a bit of game-time but he's a fit lad and hopefully he'll slot straight back in.\n\"He's got a lot of experience and having him on board will help keep everyone on their toes, which can only be a good thing.\n\"He can play in four or five positions and that means everyone else should be looking over their shoulder.\n\"No-one should be comfortable or complacent about playing and we're a level where you need that competition for places.\n\"With someone of his calibre on board, it'll hopefully help us finish in the top ten.\n\"He just wants to play and he's at an age where he'll really get hold of games, run the show and sometimes win matches single-handedly.\n\"To finish in the top ten would be a really big achievement.\"\nClacton were left without a game last weekend following the postponement of their home match against Haverhill Rovers.\nThe game was called off because of a waterlogged pitch.",

        "raw_content": "East Riverside has the largest concentration of affordable housing in Calgary. After many years, we recognize that we want and need seniors to be integrated into their communities rather than in big facilities that fail to do this adequately.\nAs you know, right now the community of Bridgeland-Riverside, The City of Calgary, and I are working on the new area redevelopment plan which is being driven primarily by the great work the community did on the East Riverside Master Plan. We\u2019re also working on the MainStreets program whose goal it is to transform 1 Avenue NE into a more thriving and vibrant high street for the neighbourhood. While discussing those medium- and long-term projects, we remain focused on day-to-day items as well, such as parking, social disorder and crime, mobility freedom and the ongoing crush of redevelopment proposals \u2013 whether they are residential or non-residential (such as the Bridgeland Complex Care Centre \u2013 you can watch my video on that development here).\nThere\u2019s a lot going on in Bridgeland-Riverside and I know that people who are dealing with these things on a day-to-day basis are feeling a little bit overwhelmed, but we'll get through all of this.\nHomes for Heroes\u2019 Development Proposal\nDuring the election period, it came to my attention that City Administration was negotiating with a group called Homes for Heroes to place them, as a sub-lessee, on a City-owned piece of land in East Riverside down in the corner on the Canadian National Institute for the Blind's site.\nThe Canadian National Institute for the Blind land is located in the eastern most portion of Bridgeland-Riverside in East Riverside. (Source: Google Maps)\nThat was news to me and a lot of people in the community who had been working hard on the master planning and the local area plan process.\nCNIB\u2019s Advocacy in East Riverside\nThe historic Riverside area of Bridgeland-Riverside is divided into three sub-areas: The Bridges in the middle; Riverside proper to the west of the Bridges; and, the institutional landscape of East Riverside. There is general consensus that Riverside, with the exception of some potential heritage streetscapes, that Riverside is the part of the community where the densities associated with transit oriented development (TOD) is most appropriate and two years ago residents, businesses, and community institutions started having a series of conversations about the future of the community with that consensus as a starting point. One of the community institutions that initiated this conversation was the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (the \u201cCNIB\u201d), which sits on a piece of land in East Riverside in a long-term lease with the City of Calgary.\nSeveral years ago, CNIB approached me and they indicated that as an institution that sits on a giant lot, next to an LRT station and beautiful park space, that they were in a building that did not adequately serve their purpose. They also indicated that as an institution that serves many Calgarians and Albertans, they wanted to put themselves on a stronger financial footing and to have a conversation with the City of Calgary about extending their lease and finding a private sector partner who would develop this land with them to provide them with a better space and the City with an actual tax base of TOD dwellers.\nSilver for Seniors in East Riverside\nAt the same time, I was approached by Silvera for Seniors who identified the same opportunities as CNIB. Like CNIB, they indicated that their operation represents a previous era's best practice for working with vulnerable populations. Silvera for Seniors would would like to better care for the low-income seniors in their care by building a state-of-the-art facility with an economy of scale which stops the cycle writing a cheque annually from the government to keep the lights on and keep these citizens fed.\nThe Over-Representation of Low-Income Housing, Seniors Housing and Social Ills in East Riverside\nBridgeland-Riverside in general, and East Riverside specifically, has the largest concentration of affordable housing in the City of Calgary. The folks who live in East Riverside are disconnected from the life of the community. After many years, we as a society after recognize that we want and need seniors to be integrated with children, brought into their communities to join in celebrating and enjoying them rather than building big facilities that fail to do this adequately.\nEast Riverside\u2019s Development Impact on Seniors and Social Disorder\nDuring the East Riverside Master Plan development planning process, one of the things that was being talked about was better integrating seniors into their community and their main street on 1 Avenue NE. It was realized that a lot of these seniors\u2019 mobility freedom was challenged and that for so many of them, the journey from East Riverside to 1 Avenue NE was simply too far.\nBringing the Community to a Prosperous East Riverside\nAn amazing idea emerged from this discussion - what if we brought the community to the seniors?\n1 Avenue NE peters out as a commercial street at around 9A Street NE and becomes more residential. Instead of looking to change residential areas to commercial areas, there was massive support for continuing the main street by running it down 9 Street NE and then along McDougall Road NE, and supporting that main street by creating a pathway system that ran along Bow Valley Drive NE and connects to the LRT station.\nWith this idea, all of a sudden, East Riverside becomes a center of community where the largest concentration of affordable housing in the city of Calgary gets diluted and enhanced by young families and young people and adults achieved through density and working with the community institutions to better support their clients who too often were forgotten and too far away to participate in their communities and have their happiest and most prosperous life in a great community.\nPhoto of the East Riverside Master Plan planning area (Source: East Riverside Master Plan document by B&A)\nThis idea incorporated into the East Riverside Master Plan provided a lot of wins \u2013 wins for the institutions, wins for their clients, wins for the residents of Bridgeland-Riverside and wins for the City and Calgarians at large. The East Riverside Master Plan had strength behind it because Bishop O\u2019Byrne, CNIB, and Silvera for Seniors were all at the table and invested in taking East Riverside from a \u201cbig box\u201d, under-used, demographically-uniform (and sometimes social-disorder affected part of the) community to a mixed-use, mixed-income community for people of all ages, all wages, and all stages in life.\nIt's a win for the city and, with that thinking, the East Riverside Master Plan was born, and we had CNIB at the table. We had Bishop O'Byrne at the table. We had Silvera for Seniors. We had the City of Calgary and some of our lessees in this area, and early on we had Alberta Health Services, which is one of the reasons why we're pushing back on the BCC as being ... another institutional use is not a good idea.\nThe Left Hand v. The Right Hand\nAll of those ideas came together in the East Riverside Master Plan that was assisted, supported, and championed by The City of Calgary\u2019s Planning and Development (P & D) which resulted in the next generation local area plan for Bridgeland-Riverside. That work towards a denser, more mixed use, more enriched, mixed-income future for East Riverside was finally being worked towards.\nDuring this time, another branch of the City of Calgary, namely, the Real Estate & Development Services (REDS) department was negotiating with Homes for Heroes to find a place for a very special approach to working with veterans who have serious issues with post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction issues, and some who may have fallen into homelessness.\nWhen Real Estate & Development Services was approached by Homes for Heroes, REDS, looking at City-owned land, realized that CNIB was sitting on a giant piece of land and they weren't using anywhere near all of it. From their point of view they believed that it was a good idea to place small clusters of tiny-houses on the land. What they failed to realize was their colleagues in P & D already had plans for the future of this land.\nThe Mission of Homes for Heroes\nHomes for Heroes is an organization whose mission is to create small and beautiful cottage clusters that give people their own home but are connected to the life of a mini-village, in a caring environment. The organization aims to rescue heroes who have fallen into homelessness and addiction issues.\nHomes for Heroes has a proposed concept for how a parcel will be turned into a community to support veterans experiencing homelessness. (Source: Homes for Heroes)\nHomes for Heroes originally reached out to the City of Calgary and was looking at a site close to the downtown, on the pathway system, in the Eau Claire area. It was recognized that that location was not an appropriate place. Homes for Heroes indicated that they needed a location that is close to everything, while isolated enough for their clients to undergo treatment and start on their path back into civilian life.\nThe Inappropriateness of the CNIB Land for Homes for Heroes\nWhile the planning and development concerns are very real for East Riverside, there is also a much more pressing issue with respect to the use of this land for Homes for Heroes whose intention would be to remain on the CNIB land for 15-20 years. What the Homes for Heroes in Bridgeland-Riverside proposal does not take into account is that there currently is a tremendous concentration of vulnerable people, affordable housing and considerable amounts of social disorder in this area. We know that it is not best practice to concentrate potential social issues into more and more density. What we now know is that it is a much better idea to dilute these social services and institutions into the general population, and actually create a much more robust and integrated community.\nCNIB and Homes for Heroes\u2019 Contrasting Visions for the East Riverside Lands\nWhen I started to dig in and speak with the leadership of the CNIB, they indicated that they were in a tough spot and couldn\u2019t readily and easily say no to their landlord \u2013 a landlord whom they would be asking for a lease extension. Additionally, they were sympathetic to the goals of Homes for Heroes. As you may know, CNIB was initially founded to help veterans who were coming back from the trenches of World War I who are suffering from blindness, and while this proposal would not be in their interest, they were relying on the process to work through these concerns.\nA Proposed Solution to Creating the Best Possible Future for All\nQuite frankly, the right hand of The City didn't know what the left hand of The City was doing and in so, got us to where we are now.\nSo I weighed in.\nI love what Homes for Heroes is about and I understand how the location on the CNIB lands in East Riverside meets their locational criteria. Upon taking all the information we now have, we know that this location is not the best place for their work, and finding them a more appropriate site must be top of mind. In order to find a solution to this challenge, my office met and we had a thorough conversation about all the files within Ward 9 and we found what could be a brilliant idea.\nChanging an Industrial Use to a Compassionate Use and Realizing a Long Desired Dream\nThis conversation is not about whether or not Homes for Heroes can do their great work in Ward 9. This is a conversation about the appropriateness of the location for them to do their work and having a thoughtful conversation about how we, working together, can effectively realize the goals, aims, and aspirations of as many stakeholders as possible and realizing multiple wins.\nInglewood Bird Sanctuary, Inglewood Wildlands and Steele's Transfer and Canadian Polar Steam. (Source: Google Maps)\nThe brilliant idea that I spoke of above is in Inglewood. The new site being proposed is next to amazing parkland which has recently been subject to a major regional planning process to create a grand new park for Calgarians and Albertans \u2013 the Bend in the Bow.\nBend in the Bow project scope Phases 1 and 2 (Source: City of Calgary)\nThe Inglewood Bird Sanctuary was set aside by the Federal Government in the 1920s when the country started to wake up to the importance of creating land where migratory birds could partake in their migratory lifestyles.\nThe Inglewood Wildlands is a former Gulf Oil refinery site, and its land that is being remediated from an industrial zone and converted into a conservation landscape.\nFrom the photo of the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary you'll notice there's one last remnant piece of industrial land which is sitting there and they're not quite happy there, as obviously a park setting doesn't work well for industrial practices.\nParks\u2019 Policy on the Vision for the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary\nThe City\u2019s mission over time supported by City policy is to acquire this industrial land and turn it into parkland. It\u2019s a difficult purchase because industrial land can be expensive. When looking at this entire matter from a birds\u2019 eye view (no pun intended) we saw that as the \u2018secret sauce\u2019 in creating a multiple win situation for all parties.\nInstead of buying the industrial land, we could do a land swap (The City owns a lot of industrial land;\nReplacing the industrial use with a lower intensity use and footprint would be much better for the residents, and flora and fauna in the neighbourhood;\nThe Homes for Heroes tiny-home clusters would be temporary (15-20 years) and would allow The City to begin converting the land to park space as identified in City policy; and\nIt would meet all of Homes for Heroes\u2019 criteria.\nWhat\u2019s Next and Where Do We Go from Here?\nRight now we have some organizations that are on \u2018path dependency\u2019. What my job is going to be as the City Councilor for Ward 9 is to break out of that path dependency and pursue a better way.\nI've had this very conversation with Homes for Heroes and they are not disinterested. Rather, they are two years and tens of thousands of dollars into looking for a site, doing their due diligence and trying to make it work.\nWith all of this, I am happy to say that Homes for Heroes participated in The City\u2019s first tranche of a program where City land is given to not-for-profits that do social housing and they have secured a site on 36 Street SE in Forest Lawn that I think will be great.\nHowever, Homes for Heroes wants to do another city and I believe that the best site for their second venture would be in Inglewood as opposed to East Riverside.\nStarting the Conversation with Bridgeland-Riverside and Inglewood Residents, Steele\u2019s Transfer, Canadian Polar Steam and Identifying All Stakeholders\nThis article is meant to begin a broad conversation about this issue. There are no hardened plans, only proposals. We still need to engage and discuss this with all potentially affected stakeholders and ensure that we come out on the other side of this stronger and with clear successes for all of our communities.\nI\u2019ll be updating Bridgeland-Riverside and Inglewood residents and stakeholders through my everybody on my email list, social media, Ward 9 Community Reports, and newsletters. If you aren\u2019t on my email list, please sign up and click here.\nThank you so much for your interest. Don't hesitate to get in touch with the Ward 9 Office and I regarding this, or any other issue.\nImproving Public Safety and Social Integration in Calgary",

        "title": "Are Gimbals The New Tripods? The new must have kit.",
        "raw_content": "This article about gimbals in filmmaking originally written by Stuart Addison, appears on Cinema5D.com. I happen to think it\u2019s a really great post, so I\u2019ve reposted it here.\nMany filmmakers can point to the tripod as the tool that set them on the path to serious filmmaking. Regardless of camera or lens or codec, a properly-used, good-quality fluid head and legs can be the defining line between a professional-looking piece and an amateur one. Once filmmakers learn this, many of us never leave home without one. In 2017 though, the tripod isn\u2019t alone on this pedestal anymore (nice pun).\nJust as tripod affordability made unintentionally shaky video unacceptable, increasing user-friendliness and expansion of gimbals into most budget sizes has made smooth camera movement a necessary offering for any production. How the gimbal got to such a ubiquitous place, just as the positive and negative consequences of it, cannot be ignored.\nFrom Steadicam to Gimbals \u2013 How We Got Here\nThe brushless 3-axis gimbals we know today are a natural extension of the Steadicam, which is itself a relatively new addition to the filmmaking landscape. American cinematographer Garrett Brown first came up with the idea of the Steadicam in the early 1970\u2019s, but it wasn\u2019t until the end of that decade that its implementation would be fully realized. Films like Bound for Glory, Rocky and The Shining cemented the Steadicam\u2019s place in cinema history, untethering cameras from the tripods, tracks, or cranes they had been previously bound to. Most importantly, the Steadicam allowed filmmakers to begin thinking of camera movement in a different way.\nA bit of Ancient Gimbal History\nBut before moving to motorized gimbals, let\u2019s rewind a little bit.\nThe concept of a gimbal isn\u2019t new at all. In fact, it\u2019s over a thousand years old. Ancient Greeks conceived it for pottery while Chinese inventors came up with a similar design for burning incense. Since then, gimbals have been used throughout history on everything from early navigation systems to rocket engines. I don\u2019t know how much this information will impact your filmmaking life, but it\u2019s interesting to think about.\nUsing a gimbal to keep a compass steady\n2013 is when everything changed. The MoVi M5 and M10 made brushless motorized gimbals a reality and were announced to major hype. For the first time, filmmakers were given access to beautiful Steadicam shots at a reduced price and with less required expertise, but MoVi was only the beginning. Rival companies began offering even less expensive gimbals in the MoVi mold. Most notably, DJI released the Ronin line, which has become the other dominant force in the gimbal industry.\nThe Freefly MoVi M5\nGimbals Today\nAll of these changes, of course, are being propelled by the emergence of drones, which also use gimbal technology for stabilization. Within two years of the MoVi announcement, filmmakers were offered truly inexpensive gimbal options with the DJI Osmo. The Gimbal shot was now available to filmmakers of every budget, making it hard to avoid seeing video content that didn\u2019t employ a gimbal in some way. From commercials to YouTube videos, the saturation of gimbals in the filmmaking market has put a premium on smooth camera movement. Hell, even vloggers are taking advantage of being able to finally be able to walk, talk and film with ease now.\nNote: As the owner of a rental house, I\u2019ve seen skyrocketing gimbal use firsthand. The freedom gimbals have given filmmakers in just a few short years is amazing. There is, however, a learning curve. Yes, gimbals are easier to operate than a Steadicam, but balancing a MoVi or a Ronin takes time and practice. I\u2019ve had many a frustrated customer return a \u2018faulty\u2019 Ronin on the basis that the gimbal wouldn\u2019t work properly, when upon inspection, it simply wasn\u2019t balanced correctly. Know your gear, filmmakers!\nThe gimbals have arrived, but now comes the real question.\nA Freefly Movi M5 gimbal with a Red Camera\nGimbal shots are all the rage. Why wouldn\u2019t they be? Anyone paying for video work can see what smooth movement can bring to a project. This isn\u2019t nuanced like color science \u2013 a good gimbal shot can be flashy in a way that makes someone pause from their social media scrolling. In today\u2019s video world, that\u2019s worth real money. On the filmmaker\u2019s end, gimbals can be a less-expensive way to add real production value to your limited budget. The benefits are all around.\nWhen I say that gimbals are the new tripod, I don\u2019t mean that they\u2019re replacing tripods. Like tripods, gimbals are becoming a mandatory item for filmmakers to be familiar with and know how to use. Also like tripods, they offer a fairly easy learning curve and don\u2019t require the kind of specialization their Steadicam counterparts did.\nFinally, and most importantly, both gimbals and tripods come at such a wide price range that filmmakers can evolve with them. Much like a filmmaker who starts with a $200 tripod to learn framing and basic camera movement and then advances to a $12,000 tripod for the smoothest, most perfectly-timed shots, a filmmaker beginning on an Osmo today could be ready for a MoVi in a year or so.\nZhiyun Crane 2 \u2013 The newest DSLR 3-axis Gimbal from Zhiyun\nIt\u2019s also worth mentioning that, again like tripods, just because we can gimbal the hell out of a shoot doesn\u2019t mean we should.\nThe market is already saturated with the gimbal look, meaning that filmmakers still have to be good at other things. Camera motion for camera motion\u2019s sake looks silly, and there\u2019s an abundance of it out there, similar to the shallow depth of field craze when the Canon 5D MKII video mode arrived where everything was shot positively wide open. You still have to be a well-rounded filmmaker to make gimbals work for you. If you have the kind of awareness and restraint to know when motion is needed and when it isn\u2019t, gimbals are a godsend.\nAre gimbals necessary for every shoot? Absolutely not. Neither are tripods, technically, but I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve kept one with you even when you didn\u2019t think you\u2019d need it. For filmmakers trying to capture attention in the scrolling world of social media video, or those trying to attract bigger clients with something impressive, or for filmmakers trying to emulate Scorsese\u2019s infamous Copacabana Steadicam tracking shot in Goodfellas, a gimbal is not only a necessary piece of gear to have access to, but a necessary one to master as well.\nKeep it next to your tripod.\nConversely, maybe I could argue that gimbals have become a style \u2013 and styles fade, don\u2019t they?\nYes, gimbals offer affordable solutions to the type of camera movements filmmakers have wanted to make for a century. Those movements, however, aren\u2019t often as nuanced as the movements you make on a tripod or slider. Gimbal smoothness is instantly identifiable in the finished product. A gimbal shot almost always makes the camera appear to float, relies on a wide-angle lens to make focusing easier and often features low or high angles that gimbals have unique access to. In other words, gimbal shots have a look. If that look doesn\u2019t change, isn\u2019t refined or doesn\u2019t develop over time, the gimbal shot could face the same fate as the 70\u2019s zoom, rarely seen today due to its dated affect. If that\u2019s the case, then gimbals aren\u2019t necessary, they are a luxury, one we perhaps shouldn\u2019t be overly excited to embrace.\nUltimately, though, I don\u2019t honestly think this is the case. Gimbals can be used subtly, and their usefulness as a potential time-saver means filmmakers will find new ways to keep them relevant. The Steadicam certainly didn\u2019t peak in 1983, and I doubt gimbals will peak now \u2013 on the contrary, the technology is still only developing, something that is plain to see with the likes of the Ronin 2 and M\u014dVI Pro, game changers that are really pushing the technological boundaries.",

        "raw_content": "Introducing Beijing Capital Museum ,Beijing Capital Museum Guide, Beijing Capital Museum Travel Guide\nThe Capital Museum is an art museum in Beijing, China. Beijing Capital Museum opened in 1981 and moved into its present building in 2006, which houses a large collection of ancient porcelain, bronze, calligraphy, painting, jade, sculpture, and Buddhist statues from imperial China as well as other Asian cultures. Part of the Beijing Capital Museum\u2019s collections was formerly housed in the Confucius Temple on Guozijian Road in Beijing. The Beijing Capital Museum today contains over 200,000 cultural relics in its collection, only a small fraction of it are exhibited, and a significant percentage of the museum's art collection came from artifacts unearthed in Beijing.\nThe Capital Museum was established in 1981 with a collection of some 83,000 objects. Although the museum pales in comparison to the visitors received in other major art museums in Beijing, such as the Palace Museum in the Forbidden City, the National Museum of China, and the National Art Museum of China; Beijing Capital Museum has since then become one of the leading cultural institutions in the city, with the first five months of 2007 receiving more than 166,000 visitors. The present Capital Museum's building's massive roof and the gradient at the entrance square was influenced by the design from ancient Chinese architecture, and the stone-made exterior wall was meant to symbolize imagery of the city walls and towers in ancient China. A piece of danbi (a massive stone carved with images of dragon, phoenix and imperial artifacts) is embedded on the ground in front of the north gate of the Beijing Capital Museum, whereas a decorative archway from the Ming Dynasty is set in the recreational hall in which shows the \"central axis\" feature that are commonly seen in Chinese architecture. The Bronze Exhibition Hall, which has an oval-shape, was also meant to symbolize the unearthing of ancient relics by its slanting design in which extends from the ground to the exterior of the Beijing Capital Museum.\nFeatured Attractions of Beijing Capital Museum\nFine Collection Display: It occupies seven exhibition halls in both main and the oval exhibition halls. Porcelain wares, bronzes, calligraphy works, paintings, jades, Buddha statues, exquisite artworks in study room, and folklore of old Beijing are displayed.\nA Glimpse of Treasures Exhibits of Buddha statues (Hall E1, the fourth floor, square exhibition hall): Altogether, 262 Tibetan and Han Buddha statues are on display here, most of which are displayed to the public for the first time. You will learn the history of Buddha statues' development and revolution in Tibetan regions and in Han regions.\nExhibits of porcelain wares (Hall E1, the fourth floor, square exhibition hall): Porcelain wares exhibited here were excavated or handed over when the city served as the capital in the historic period. The exhibition focuses on porcelain wares of the Song (960-1279), Yuan (1271-1368), Ming (1368-1644), and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties. There are altogether 170 pieces and sets of porcelains. An exquisite blue-and-white globular-shape porcelain vase with under-glazed red and emblazoned with dragon, cloud and wave on display was estimated to be worth ten million in RMB in 2000.\"\nExhibits of paintings (Hall H, the second floor, round exhibition hall): Over 50 traditional Chinese paintings are on display. Paintings from the Ming and Qing dynasties are central to the exhibition. Famous paintings include the Students of Confucius, the Eighty-seven Gods and the Spring in South China.\nExhibits of calligraphy works (Hall I, the third floor, round exhibition hall): Calligraphic works of the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties are on display. They can be divided into two categories: works of the famous calligraphy artists and those of royal family members. In total, 53 pieces and sets of calligraphy work are exhibited including inscriptions of the ode to the god of Luo River by Wang Xianzhi in Kai (regular script) character in Jin Dynasty, the calligraphy works of poems of plum blossom by Huang Tingjian in cursive writing in Song Dynasty, the Emperor Kangxi's and of Qianlong's calligraphic works.\nExhibits of bronzes (Hall J, the fourth floor, round exhibition hall): Altogether, 132 pieces and sets of bronzes are on display; these can be divided into two groups according to their historical periods (the Western Zhou Dynasty (11th century BC - 771 BC) or Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770BC-221BC)) they belong to. This exhibition demonstrates the delicate craftsmanship and the long history of the bronzes of the culture.\nExhibits of jades (Hall K, the fifth floor, round exhibition hall): Over 180 pieces of jades show the jade's brief development. Many items of jades on display were unearthed from the noblemen's graves, and with rein-marks and the emperors' poems carved in. Among all the exhibits, the imperial jade seal of Qian Long (the fourth emperor of Qing Dynasty) has drawn the most attention. This white jade seal with circularly carved dragon was made in 1791 for Qian Long's eightieth birthday. It was the emperor's private seal, and used to be stamped on the emperor's many famous calligraphic works and paintings.\nExquisite artworks in study room (Hall L, the sixth floor, the oval exhibition hall): The writing brush, the ink, the ink stone and the paper are collectively called the Four Treasures of the study. They are the first part of the exquisite artworks in the study room, and are served as the main content of this exhibition. The second part of the exhibits comprises mainly of small objects in the study room such as brush-holders, brush-racks, paperweights, sandalwood burners and seals. The study room furniture is the third part of the exhibits. A total of almost 150 pieces and sets of artworks are displayed here, including the imperial ink stick with the Emperor Qian Long's rein-mark, the Four Famous Ink Stones in China, and the bamboo brush-holder carved with Belvederes in a Landscape from the Ming Dynasty.\nQuick Facts on Beijing Capital Museum\nName: Beijing Capital Museum\nLocation: 5 Km West of Downtown Beijing\nOpening Hours: 09:00-17:00 (Closed on Mondays)",

        "raw_content": "Every year, London attracts over 30 million visitors from overseas. When you combine that with all of the Brits who also visit the capital, the amount of tourists in the city at any one time is staggering. London has become a central hub for businesses all over the world; an iconic city for its culture and fashion, as well as a brilliant place for tourists to explore the historic sights and various attractions.\nIf you\u2019re planning a city break to the UK\u2019s capital, you will obviously want to include the classics, such as Big Ben and The Tower of London.

Meeting with engineering apprentices at BT shows that the completion of a MA is not only great for the individual but it is also makes a real difference to their employer.\n\u201cBut I know there is even more we can do to support our young people towards work and ensuring our young people have the skills they need for the future.\u201d\nSDS Chief Executive Damien Yeates, said:\n\u201cContinued investment in Modern Apprenticeships from employers across Scotland, through a period of what remains challenging economic conditions, shows the value businesses place on developing their workforce to meet future skills needs.\"\nBrendan Dick, BT Scotland director, said:\n\u201cAn apprenticeship with one of the world\u2019s leading telecommunications companies is a great way to start a rewarding career. Apprentices are at the heart of our business, bringing fresh ideas and new ways of working to the teams they join. Many quickly move into management roles having taken advantage of development opportunities during their apprenticeship.\n\u201cBT plans to recruit around 100 apprentices across Scotland this year to work across a number of technical and customer service roles. BT has a very strong reputation as a leading employer and with major developments such as our multi billion pound investments in superfast broadband, mobile communications, TV and sport, the prospects have never looked brighter or more exciting.\u201d\nThe figures can be found at: https://www.skillsdevelopmentscotland.co.uk/media/41664/modern-apprenticeship-statistics-quarter-4-2015-16-2-1.pdf",

Unlike the Hydra, the plane does not feature countermeasures of any kind or the ability to take off and land vertically.\nThe P-996 LAZER is a fast jet, capable of barrel rolling. Barrel rolling helps to avoid incoming missiles that are fired at the player, as due to the lack of countermeasures of any kind. However, the P-996 LAZER is fragile, and if it is hit too many times, the engine will die, and the player must eject.\nFort Zancudo.\nIf the player successfully steals this jet from Fort Zancudo, they must place it in a hangar as soon as possible, as there seems to be a \"kill switch\" that kills the engine. If the player then exits, they will not be able to enter it again.\nThe P-996 LAZER does not contain any countermeasures of any kind, resulting in the player having to perform barrel rolls in an attempt to dodge the incoming missiles.\nThe \"96\" in the P-996 LAZER's name is a reverse of \"69\".\n\"LAZER\" is a corruption of \"laser\".\nRetrieved from \u2018http://www.grandtheftwiki.com/index.php?title=P-996_LAZER&oldid=415547\u2019",

First Responders\nFirst responder trainers in Oklahoma will have an opportunity to learn safety procedures and best practices about alternative fuel vehicles on Aug. 24 and 25 at Oklahoma City Community College's Professional Development Institute.\nThe courses, taught by the National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium (NAFTC) are hosted by Tulsa Area Clean Cities (TACC), and are tailored to each profession. With an increased use of alternative fuel vehicles throughout Oklahoma, the chance of these new technologies being involved in a collision also increases. Fire, emergency medical services (EMS), and law enforcement personnel need to be trained on the proper procedures for safely addressing incidents involving these new technologies.\nThese three targeted courses feature techniques to safely respond to vehicle collisions, incidents and injuries involving alternative fuel vehicles. Additionally, the courses include information on alternative fuels, their properties and origins, and ways in which alternative fuel vehicles differ from conventionally fueled vehicles.\nDeveloped by the NAFTC, these courses were made possible by TACC through funding from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Clean Cities program, and were constructed from existing NAFTC First Responder Safety Training materials.\nRegistration is free and open to trainers from each field - police, fire, and EMS. Trainer status will be verified. Space is limited to 20 students per class, and registration ends Aug. 5.\nFor more information, e-mail Daniel Jeffries at djeffries@incog.org.\nRead more about Training First Responders Alternative Fuels",

They face charges of one count each of conspiracy to commit second-degree assault and breach of peace.\nBond was set at $25,000 for Montes and $5,000 for Cruz.\nBoth were charged Wednesday. Cruz was arrested in Valhalla, N.Y., while Montes was arrested at Greenwich police headquarters.\nAccording to information filed by police in state Superior Court in Stamford, a 16-year-old girl was walking with a group of friends on South Water Street near West Church Street in Byram on Aug. 23. She noticed three vehicles that belonged to members of what she told police was the \"Oak Family Gang\" drive toward her and her friends, she told police.\nFive men jumped out of the vehicles and began to attack the teenager and her friends, according to police. The number of people in the group allegedly attacked was not included in the report. The teenage complainant said she tried to break up the assault, but one of the attackers swung a metal dog leash at her, striking her on the upper left arm as she raised it to protect her head.\nThe girl said she fell to the ground and was kicked several times by the attackers, who fled the scene shortly after, according to police. She suffered cuts and bruises to her left arm and bruises to both shins, neck and both arms. Police did not identify the girl's town of residence.\nThere was no information filed in court on the three other alleged attackers or whether they face charges.\nThe woman reported the incident to police, but her friends declined to speak to police or give official statements, it was reported.\nGreenwich police contacted the Port Chester Police Department, which assisted in identifying the alleged assailants.\nOn Aug. 24, Port Chester police impounded a 1995 Acura hatchback. A passenger in the vehicle made a cryptic statement that \"it went down in Greenwich,\" but refused to say anything else or give an official statement.

        "title": "Will November\u2019s Election Results Finally Result in Prison Reform?",
        "raw_content": "Will November\u2019s Election Results Finally Result in Prison Reform?\nBy Raymond Dall\u2019Osto and Christopher Strohbehn\nAfter working in the Wisconsin criminal justice field for the past 40 years, I have learned a great deal. For one, the populations of state and federal prisons have increased from 250,000 to 1,500,000 during that time, even though the overall crime rate has decreased substantially. In 2010, there were 186,000 inmates in federal prisons, 98,000 of whom were incarcerated for drug crimes. When I began practicing law, the state of Wisconsin had fewer than 4,000 inmates in prison, but the number of inmates is now more than 20,000. Even though the crime rate has decreased, the U.S. continues to lead the world in the rate of people who are incarcerated. Many of us wonder how our society has reached this point and what can be done to fix the problem.\nHarsh mandatory minimum sentence laws, increased sentence structures for felony offenses, and longer sentences being imposed by judges have all led to over-incarceration. Additional factors include the unavailability of parole or the elimination of programs providing early release for prisoners with good behavior or who have successfully completed treatment.\nUnfortunately, incarceration does not act as a deterrent or cure for crime. Instead, it creates isolation for prisoners, making them non-productive members of society who are fully dependent on the criminal justice system. Imprisonment rarely results in rehabilitation or provides effective treatment, and it does not provide prisoners with life skills or job training that will help them become reintegrated into society after their release.\nStudies by the National Research Council (NRC) have found that mass imprisonment is not an effective method for reducing certain crimes, including drug crimes and juvenile offenses. In fact, these studies have shown that criminal behavior declines as people get older, beginning when they reach their mid-20s and falling significantly as they reach their 30s and 40s. Rates of recidivism fall sharply as age increases, and due to these findings, the NRC study concluded that long prison sentences are an inefficient method of preventing crime, unless they are specifically targeted at offenders who are extremely dangerous or have a high rate of repeat offenses.\nAccording to Bureau of Justice Statistics data reported in 2015, around 54% of state prison inmates have been incarcerated for violent crimes, and the remaining 46% are serving time for drug offenses, property crimes, and offenses involving public order. However, these statistics do not tell the whole story, especially in the state of Wisconsin. Many prison inmates are serving time for probation or extended supervision violations, and in many cases, revocations are based on rule violations, rather than additional criminal convictions. Sentences of probation or other alternatives to revocation are not used as much as they should be.\nSince 2008, the estimated annual cost required to house a Wisconsin prison inmate has increased from $31,806 to nearly $40,000. The state\u2019s taxpayers are not getting their money\u2019s worth for what is being spent on the criminal justice system. Prison inmates are not productive members of society, and they are entirely supported by tax revenues, causing increases to the state\u2019s budget deficit. However, those who are on probation, whether it includes work release or not, pay their own costs for supervision and/or incarceration, and active employment allows them to remain productive and support their families. Obviously, reducing incarceration and increasing probation makes much more sense from both the societal and economic viewpoints.\nThe need for sentencing and prison reform is evident, and elected officials from both parties have recognized that something must be done about the massive expense of mass incarceration. The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act, which was approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee in February of 2018, would reduce some of the harshest rules for sentencing in federal crimes, and it would provide some modest reforms to the federal justice system. In addition, the House of Representatives passed the FIRST STEP Act, its own version of a prison reform bill, in May of 2018. These bills have laid the groundwork for much-needed legislation that will allow the next Congress to begin to address the issue of prison reform.\nThe November mid-term elections are over, and the candidates chosen for governor and attorney general in Wisconsin are amenable to addressing the mass incarceration dilemma. During the campaign, Governor-elect Tony Evers voiced the view that Wisconsin\u2019s current criminal justice and prison policy is ineffective and too expensive, both in the cost to taxpayers and the burden it puts on those caught up in the system. It is hoped that similar bipartisan efforts to address this crisis will occur at the state level in 2019, so that real reform can be enacted in the upcoming legislative session.\nRaymond Dall\u2019Osto practices criminal and white collar defense at the law firm of Gimbel, Reilly, Guerin & Brown, LLP, and served on the Board of Governors and as a public defender.

        "raw_content": "Welcome back! In this lesson I will be showing you some examples from the Phrygian Dominant scale, which is the 5th mode of the harmonic minor scale. We covered the harmonic minor in a previous lesson, but I want to spend a little more time with this mode in this lesson. The Phrygian Dominant scale is used in a lot of different types of music; it is used in rock, metal, jazz, classical, etc. The scale formula for this mode is (1, b2, 3, 4, 5, b6, b7); basically, you could refer this to the regular Phrygian scale with a raised 3rd. It sounds great played over major and dominant chords, having a Spanish type flavor. You can experiment by playing power chords off of each note for a more rock approach. OK, let me show you some basic fingerings and lines from this scale I came up with.\nExample 1. This is just a basic three note per string pattern for the Phrygian Dominant scale in the key of F#, the notes are (F#, G, A#, B, C#, D, E). The key is to play this scale everywhere on the neck in all keys and make up your own patterns - don't stick to one shape.\nExample 1a. Here is a cool pattern I came up with that brings out the cool exotic flavor of this scale. Basically, it is just a six note pattern moving up in octaves. The six note pattern really begins on the 5th string and moves up the neck, I just started the pattern off the F# on the 6th string, feel free to experiment. You might want to follow the suggested fingerings.\nMP3 - Example 1a\nExample 2. This example is based off the pattern in example 1a. I\nconstructed this to demonstrate how you could apply this to your\nplaying instead of just running up and down the scale.\nExample 3. Here is a cool string skipping line; this is also in the key of F#. You will notice it is constructed from the same pattern I showed you in example 1, it moves up the neck, skipping one string at a time. This can be tricky, but sounds real cool fast.\nExample 4. Let me show you a line using arpeggios from the F# Phrygian Dominant scale. This first arpeggio is an F# augmented arpeggio (F#, A#, D), which shares the same notes as a A# augmented and a D augmented. Because it is symmetrical, the same three notes are repeating in major 3rd intervals. The D augmented is diatonic to F# Phrygian Dominant and so is the F# and G major arpeggios that occur on beat 3 and 4. I use sweep picking to play these arpeggios, be sure to experiment.\nOK, that's it for this lesson! Be sure to make up your own patterns and don't forget to check out my latest CD \"Electric City\" on this amazing site. Visit mikecampese.com for more information.",

She added that the court's rulings do not consider the matter of demography and the Jewish majority \"as values that should be taken into consideration.\"\nShaked's comments come the day after the Supreme Court, sitting as the High Court of Justice, ruled that asylum seekers may be deported to Rwanda and Uganda but may not be jailed for more than two months if they refuse to go.\n\"Zionism should not continue, and I say here, it will not continue to bow down to the system of individual rights interpreted in a universal way that divorces them from the history of the Knesset and the history of legislation that we all know,\" Shaked told her audience, which included Attorney General Avichai Mendelblit, Supreme Court President Miriam Naor, State Prosecutor Shai Nitzan and Military Advocate General Sharon Afek.\nShaked's speech was momentarily interrupted when some of the lawyers in the audience yelled that Israeli was an apartheid state.\nThe minister also said that the nation-state bill now being advanced by the government will be a \"moral and political revolution.\" The controversial bill holds that Israel is \u201cthe national home of the Jewish people\u201d and that the right to realize self-determination in the state is unique to them.\nShaked said that the court's rulings reflect an attitude according to which \"the question of the Jewish majority isn't relevant in any case.\" With regard to the Supreme Court ruling, she added: \"It isn't relevant when we're talking about infiltrators from Africa who have settled in south Tel Aviv and established a city within a city, pushing out the residents of the neighborhoods, and the response of the judicial system in Israel is to strike down again and again the law that seeks to deal with the matter.\"\nWith regard to the Jewish majority, Shaked also mentioned increasing the Jewish population of the Galilee.\nShaked said she considered the system of individual rights important, but \"not when it is disconnected from context, from our national tasks, from our identity, from our history, from our Zionist challenges.\"\nShe added that \"since the rights revolution, we have stopped seeing ourselves as a community.\"\nRegarding the nation-state bill, Shaked said that those who oppose it \"believe that a Basic Law that gives prominence to our national and Zionist values will make us less democratic. I, on the other hand, see the individual rights that the Knesset has recognized as an absolute truth, and I also see our national and Zionist values as an absolute truth.\"\nShe added: \"Only a moral and political revolution along the lines of the one we experienced in the 1990s that will reconfirm the main achievements of Zionism since its inception will change this problematic trend.\" The minister said that this trend has led to legal \"interpretation that has turned our national uniqueness into an empty symbol and an empty vessel.\"\nReacting to Shaked's comments, the leader of the opposition in the Knesset, Zionist Union Knesset member Isaac Herzog, said: \"In the face of a government that is ignoring the orphan, the disabled, the foreigner and the widow, we need a strong judicial system that will not show bias. The coalition parties should head off Shaked's revolution, for the good of the public as a whole.\"\nThe head of the Hatnuah faction of the Zionist Union, Tzipi Livni, said: \"Zionism isn't bowing down to human rights. It is proudly raising its head, because protecting [human rights] is also the essence of Judaism and part of Israel's values as a Jewish and democratic state.\"\nIn response to the Monday's ruling on asylum seekers, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Interior Minister Arye Dery, together with Shaked, called for legislation that would allow asylum seekers to be deported against their will. Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan criticized the Supreme Court ruling, saying that it nullified his decision when he was interior minister \"to apply the policy of removal to a third country and leaves the state without an effective tool to remove infiltrators.\"",

The transition from musical theater to opera occurred shortly afterwards, when she was selected as a finalist for the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions.\nSince that time, the soprano has performed with many of the major national and international opera companies and at festivals around the world, including Lyric Opera of Chicago, Glyndebourne Festival, Teatro Colon de Buenos Aires, San Francisco Opera, Netherlands Opera, Seattle Opera, Op\u00e9ra de Nice, Miami Opera, Canadian Opera Company, Aix-en-Provence Festival, Opera Orchestra of New York, New York\u2019s Mostly Mozart Festival, and the Ravinia Festival, among others. At the Metropolitan Opera, she has appeared in several productions, including La Fille du R\u00e9giment, Un Ballo in Maschera, Le Nozze di Figaro, Manon, Die Fledermaus, and Werther.

        "raw_content": "Year 7 Tuck Shop\nThe students in Mrs Watts\u2019s Year 7 ICT class have been learning about Excel and how it is used for financial modelling by setting up their own tuck shop business. The students carried out research about healthy eating, used the internet to reliably find information about a charity to support then carried out primary research in the form of questionnaires to collate ideas about what to sell.\nThe classes raised start-up capital, then used it to invest in stock to sell. They created posters and researched the importance of advertising as an effective marketing tool. The final tuck shop was held on Friday the 17th June; the students organised and ran the whole event from start to finish very efficiently. They then used their Profit and Loss accounts to calculate the Gross Profit and Net Profit (learning the difference along the way) and handed back the original shareholders\u2019 investment (some chose to leave their investments in for further growth/ or in our case donation to charity). The final profit of \u00a337 was split between McMillan and Water Aid.\nKatherine, Year 7 said:\n\u201cI believe that that our Year 7 tuck shop was very successful and as well as that I think that everyone had fun doing it. During this project we learnt to create and plan our own business, and we learnt to create things needed in a business such as spreadsheets, profit and loss accounts and more. Over time we had the opportunity to develop more IT skills and have fun along the way. At the end of our project we got to experience having our own event that we got to run. It was a fun, educational project that everyone enjoyed.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Scabies, an itchy curse, is often misdiagnosed\nMost people expect to return from vacation with fond memories of a relaxing or exciting time and perhaps photos to document it. That was not exactly the case for one 25-year-old man who took a trip to a Brazilian beach. Five weeks after returning to his home in Spain, he began to itch. He itched everywhere, intensely, and especially at night, which made sleep almost impossible.\nAfter two months of this torment, with pimples and the sores from scratching them on his abdomen, buttocks and genitals, he sought help from a dermatologist. The diagnosis was scabies, an infestation of tiny mites he had most likely contracted from a sexual encounter during his vacation.\nIn describing this case in the July issue of The Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, Dr. Sergio Vano-Galvan and Dr. Paula Moreno-Martin of Madrid called medical attention to a worldwide public health problem that each year affects more than 300 million people.\nScabies is frequently misdiagnosed and mistreated, partly because most physicians are unfamiliar with it and partly because its symptoms mimic so many other skin diseases.\nA correct diagnosis is further complicated by the fact that symptoms can often appear six to eight weeks after a person becomes infested with the microscopic arthropod, making it seem as if the problem came from nowhere. But unlike other skin diseases, scabies is usually accompanied by a telltale sign: one or more burrows in the skin where mites lay their eggs.\nScabies is easily cured, but only if patients and their close contacts conscientiously follow directions for medical treatment and environmental cleanup. However, even after a person is rid of the mites and their eggs, itching can persist for up to four weeks.\nThe scabies mite, Sarcoptes scabiei, can afflict a number of animals. In dogs and sheep, the infestation is commonly called mange. At 0.4 millimeter in length, the human scabies mite mite is barely visible to the naked eye.\nBut just 10 adult females breeding in a person's skin are enough to cause bodywide torment, as they defecate and lay eggs that then hatch into larvae and develop into more adult mites. The itching is due to an allergic reaction to the mite, its excrement and burrows, though an antihistamine alone is rarely enough to squelch the desire to scratch.\nScratching, however, can cause sores that become infected with bacteria like Staphylococcus or Streptococcus, prompting a diagnosis of impetigo and perhaps missing the underlying cause.\nScabies spreads most often through direct, prolonged skin-to-skin contact, like that between sexual partners and members of a household.\nAs the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention put it in a fact sheet on scabies, \"A quick handshake or hug will usually not spread infestation.\" But the mite can also be acquired from contaminated bedding, clothing or towels recently used by a person with scabies.\nAlthough taking a shower or bath soon after contact with live mites can wash them away, an attack of scabies is not a symptom of poor hygiene. Literally anyone can get it, regardless of age, sex or social class.\nIn the Cleveland Clinic journal article, the Spanish dermatologists wrote that every patient with intense itching should be suspected of having scabies, especially if a family member reports similar symptoms.\nWhen a doctor is familiar with scabies, as most dermatologists should be, the diagnosis is relatively simple. The scabies mite has favored sites in which it lives, generally areas on the body that are warm or where clothing is tight: between fingers and under nails; in the folds of the wrist, elbow and knee; on the buttocks; around the belt line and nipples; and on the penis.\nWhen children get scabies, the lesions tend to appear bodywide, including the scalp, palms and soles. A particularly severe, highly contagious form called crusted, or Norwegian, scabies can affect the elderly, AIDS patients and people on immunosuppressants.\nWhile people with ordinary scabies usually have no more than 5 to 15 live female mites on their bodies, those with crusted scabies can harbor hundreds, even millions, of adult mites.\nTo confirm the diagnosis, the doctor may take a scraping of a lesion and examine it under a microscope to look for the mite, its eggs or fecal matter.\nThe usual treatment is to apply a 5 percent permethrin cream to cool, dry skin from the neck to the bottom of the feet. The cream must be applied everywhere, including the groin, palms and soles and between fingers and toes.\nThe medication, an insecticide, should be left on for 8 to 14 hours, with a possible second application a week or two later in case some eggs survived and had hatched.\nJane Brody writes about health for the New York Times.",

        "raw_content": "Travel: A grand stay in Eastbourne\nBandstand summer season show\nA fine old Victorian resort, Eastbourne offers majestic architecture, theatre, art and wild places. Rebecca Underwood reports\nSaunter along elegant King\u2019s Promenade towards the pier as a gentle breeze flutters over the waves and the cornet in your hand begins to melt in the sunshine. Pause to admire the colourful carpets of flowers and listen to the tunes from the bandstand as the soaring seagulls overhead add their own raucous accompaniment to the melodies. Welcome to Eastbourne, the Empress of Watering Places - a fine example of a Victorian resort that continues to attract more than 4.5 million visitors every year.\nEastbourne offers visitors an insight into the boom in British seaside resorts. In 1849 the railway was connected to the town and tourism began to develop. The promenade was built and the pier opened to much fanfare in 1872. To this day, the pier and the 1930\u2019s seafront bandstand are among the town\u2019s most popular attractions. As I did my own promenading, the music drifted over from the bandstand, and fellow strollers could not resist taking a seat and joining in the toe tapping and spontaneous applause.\nOn July 14 last year, the 144-year-old Grade II listed pier was badly damaged by fire and is still undergoing restoration. Fortunately, two thirds of the building was saved, including the outer pavilion and it is possible to walk the entire length and enjoy the panoramic views it offers across the English Channel.\nSovereign Harbour Cafe\nGet along this month on August 13-16 and you will be able to watch the world\u2019s biggest and free seafront air show, the nattily titled Airbourne.\nThe sky will be awash with the red, white and blue formations of the Red Arrows. A Vulcan XH558 will also be taking part and the Royal Air Force will be displaying the spectacular agility of the jet Hawk T2, a pair of which will be whizzing overhead as onlookers, in their thousands, whoop it up.\nA walk along the cliffs will take you to the undulating formation known as the Seven Sisters - remnants of valleys eroded by the sea, while the infamous Beachy Head is a spectacular chalk headland rising to more than 160m. The cliffs provide nesting ledges for many sea birds including kittiwake, herring bull, rock pipit and northern fulmar while the dense cliff top scrub supports breeding stonechat, corn bunting, yellowhammer and lesser whitethroat.\nFor more nature, a trip to the South Downs, Britain\u2019s newest National Park, will not disappoint. The area covers 627 square miles, two thirds of which is in Sussex, and there you will see some of the most varied and stunning English landscapes.\nThe Towner Gallery\nFor a more sedate exercise and an excellent round of golf, consider the nearby Royal Eastbourne Golf Club, founded in 1887 when Queen Victoria celebrated her golden jubilee and following patronage by her grandson Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence. This traditional members club, within the South Downs National Park, caters for all levels of handicap. The scenery is glorious and the courses are maintained to the highest standards.\nArt lovers should head to the Towner. The contemporary gallery on College Road features a unique programme of major historic visual art exhibitions in addition to an extensive contemporary collection. The internationally renowned collection of around 4,000 pieces has much modern British art, including extensive display of works by Sussex painter Eric Ravilious - famous for his depictions of the South Downs.\nThe Congress Theatre, a short walk from the Grand Hotel, presents many West End productions including Annie, (running from August 10-15) and The Songbook of Judy Garland which opens on August 19 for four nights.\nThe pier at sunrise\nThe sea air usually awakens the appetite, in time honoured fashion, so head for Harry Ramsden\u2019s on the corner of the Grand Parade and Terminus Road. Select an outside table, sink into a comfy chair and savour a scrumptious luncheon of fresh fish and chips with mushy peas. Harry Ramsden\u2019s has been serving our national dish for over 75 years so you can rely on excellent service and a mouth-watering menu.\nThe outstanding buffet luncheon at the Green Almond on Compton Street, behind the Grand Hotel, is another winner. This charming vegetarian farm house style bistro serves a delicious variety of dishes with options for vegans and gluten intolerant diners; and the desserts are heavenly. The luncheon buffet offers good value with a choice of a small or large plate - a good option for families. The menu changes daily, according to local fresh produce.\nThe finest place to stay in Eastbourne is the Grand Hotel, a striking example of elegant 19th century architecture. Located in a prime position on the seafront, the building, known as The White Palace, was constructed in 1875 and dominates the shoreline.\nGuests from the past include Viscount Montgomery of Alamein, Sir Winston Churchill, Harold Macmillan, Ernest Bevin, Princess Margaret and Lord Snowdon, the Duke of Edinburgh, Princess Alexandra, Charlie Chaplin, Elgar, and Dubussy, who completed his enchanting symphony La Mer, during his stay here in 1905.\nFrom 1934 to 1939 orchestras broadcasted live on the BBC every Sunday evening from the hotel\u2019s Great Hall. It was later chosen by Dennis Potter for his naughty weekend drama Cream in My Coffee. Today, traditional afternoon tea is served in the hall with temptations including fresh scones oozing with fruity jams and thick fresh cream, dainty sandwiches and assorted pastries. If you wish to work off those calories, practice your dance moves with the live resident jazz band on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings.\nAs expected of a five star hotel, the service is excellent and the room accommodation features plush furnishings and rich fabrics with ultra comfortable beds and plump pillows.\nAfter breakfast, guests are welcome to take a dip in the indoor pool or the spacious outdoor pool, where you can select a comfy lounger and relax in the sunshine. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served with aplomb in the elegant Garden Restaurant. The menus feature traditional British dishes with a contemporary flair and are inspired by local produce selected from Sussex farms.\u2028>>>\nDinner, bed and breakfast at the Grand Hotel costs from \u00a3120 per person per night based on two adults sharing a deluxe \u2018inland\u2019 bedroom for two nights or more on Sunday to Thursday (Special rates apply on Friday and Saturday).\nTravel tip: Southern Railway\u2019s direct service takes less than 90 minutes from London Victoria.",

        "raw_content": "https://www.heyheyrenee.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/06-Sugaree-Live.m4a\nI love this version of Sugaree, by Jerry Garcia and made popular by The Grateful Dead. It\u2019s sung by the great Jorma Kaukonen on Dear Jerry: Celebrating the Music of Jerry Garcia (Live)\nLike most Dead songs the lyrics have deep, nested meanings.\nI find the Jubilee reference a great commentary on our society. It never ceases to amaze me, how religious people twist the Bible to what they want to believe, or, how they\u2019re so adamant about one verse but completely ignore others, such as the concept of Jubilee.\nIf that Jubilee don\u2019t come\nMaybe I\u2019ll meet you on the run\nIn ancient Jewish times, Jubilee held every forty-nine years, was a ritualized way of giving everyone a clean slate. The tradition is outlined in the Bible in Leviticus 25:1 0:\nAnd ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.\nThe basic tenet of jubilee is that all debts should be forgiven. This included indenture and mortgage of person and property. Thus the concept was readily embraced by America\u2019s slave population and entered our folklore.\nFrom The Complete Annotated Grateful Dead Lyrics 50th Anniversary Edition \u2013 a must have for any Deadhead.\nThe title is reminiscent of the Elizabeth Gotten song \u201cI\u2019ve Cot a Secret (Shake Sugaree).\u201d Fred Neil recorded the tune in aversion in which he reworked the melody somewhat.\nFrom Hunter\u2019s liner notes for the reissue of Garcia in the box set All Good Things:\nSugaree was written soon after I moved from the Garcia household to China Camp.\nPeople assume the idea was cadged from Elizabeth Cotten\u2019s \u201cSugaree,\u201d but, in fact, the song was originally titled \u201cStingaree,\u201d which is a poisonous South Sea manta. The phrase \u201cJust don\u2019t tell them that you know me\u201d was prompted by something said by an associate in my pre-Dead days, when my destitute circumstances found me fraternizing with a gang of minor criminals. What he said when departing was: \u201cHold your mud and don\u2019t mention my name.\u201d\nWhy change the title to \u201cSugaree\u201d? Just thought it sounded better that way, made the addressee seem more hard-bitten to bear a sugarcoated name. The song, as I imagined it, is addressed to a pimp. And yes, I knew Libba\u2019s song and did indeed borrow the new name from her, suggested by the \u201cShake it\u201d refrain.\nIt has further been suggested that the use of \u201cSugaree\u201d by Gotten was derived ultimately from shivaree:\nshivaree n. Midwestern & Western U.S. A noisy mock serenade for newlyweds. Also called regionally charivari, belling, horning, serenade.\n[Alteration of charivari.]\nRegional Note: Shivaree is the most common American regional form of charivari, a French word meaning \u201ca noisy mock serenade for\n1971 suqaree 159\nnewlyweds\u201d and probably deriving in turn from a Late Latin word meaning \u201cheadache.\u201d The term, most likely borrowed from French traders and settlers along the Mississippi River, was well established in the United States by 1805; an account dating from that year describes a shivaree in New Orleans: \u201cThe house is mobbed by thousands of the people of the town, vociferating and shouting with loud acclaim. . . . [M]any [are] in disguises and masks; and all have some kind of discordant and noisy music, such as old kettles, and shovels, and tongs. \u2026 All civil authority and rule seems laid aside\u201d (JohnF, Watson).\nThe word shivaree is especially common along and west of the Mississippi River. Its use thus forms a dialect boundary running north-south, dividing western usage from eastern. This is unusual in that most dialect boundaries run east-west, dividing the country into Northern and Southern dialect regions. Some regional equivalents are belling, used in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan; homing, from upstate New York, northern Pennsylvania, and western New England; and serenade, a term used chiefly in the South Atlantic states. (American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language)\nSugaree was also the name of a town in Liberia. A map in Mitchell\u2019s School Atlas: Comprising the Maps and Tables Designed to Accompany Mitchell\u2019s School\nand Family Geography (Thomas, Cowperthwait & Co, 1 853) shows Sugaree on the northern coast, in the region called Ohio.\nShake it! inter], (1 900s-1990s) a cry of encouragement to a dancer, usually a dancing woman.

Specifically, in order to distinguish the impact of each variable in the regression, we have separately introduced part of principal component analysis (Part_PCA), Independent Weight evaluation, and CRITIC, into our proposal. We have explored that these methods supported by our proposal change the regression track by weighted every individual, to optimize the approach direction, as well as the approach variable selection. As a consequence, our proposed algorithm can yield better results in the promise direction.

Despite sharing commonalities in their synthesis, glycans attached to glycoproteins have species-specific structures generated by the presence of different sets of enzymes and acceptor substrates in each organism. In this review, we present a comparative analysis of the main glycosylation pathways shared by humans and the fungal pathogen Candida albicans: -linked glycosylation, -linked mannosylation and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchorage. The knowledge of similarities and divergences between these metabolic pathways could help find new pharmacological targets for C. albicans infection.\nAlthough evolutionarily distant, humans and microorganisms of the Candida genus are closely related from a health perspective. C. albicans is a commensal organism that colonizes mucosal surfaces of the digestive tract and oral and vaginal cavities, and is able to cause superficial or systemic infections (candidiasis), particularly in the light of immunological host defects [1]. Nonetheless, other Candida species including C. glabrata, C. krusei, C. parapsilosis and C. tropicalis have also emerged as important causative agents of candidiasis. Intact glycosylation pathways in both, the human host and the fungal pathogen, are important, if not essential, for their development; thus, the knowledge of commonalities and divergences of these metabolic processes, as well as their functions, could help define pharmacological targets to suppress the pathogenicity of Candida and other fungal pathogens.\n2. The N-Linked Glycosylation Pathway\nThe N-glycosylation pathway involves attachment of glycans to the amide nitrogen atom in the side chain of asparagine (Asn) residues of eukaryotic, archaeal, and bacterial glycoproteins. The best described model where the eukaryotic N-glycosylation pathway has been characterized in detail is the baker yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae [2]. Through the years this model has helped to identify and characterize various human and fungal orthologs involved in this pathway.\nThe synthesis of the dolichol-linked glycan and its transfer to proteins are identical in both, human cells and C. albicans [3, 4] (see Table 1 and Figure 1). In fact, these processes are quite conserved among eukaryotic cells and there are only a handful of organisms where these stages are slightly different, such as trypanosomatids, some protists, and the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans [5, 6].\nTable 1: Human and C. albicans homolog proteins involved in the N-linked glycosylation pathway.\nFigure 1: The N-glycosylation pathway. Commonalities and divergence in the N-linked glycosylation pathway. The shared structures between humans and Candida albicans have been colored, showing the rER synthesis of the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 glycan and its transfer by the OST complex to a nascent protein. Once transferred, the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 glycan is trimmed by the action of glucosidases and enters a quality control checkpoint performed by the CNX/CRT cycle. Once it passes this checkpoint, it is trimmed by mannosidase MAN1B1 to generate a Man8GlcNAc2 structure. At this point divergence occurs with C. albicans that synthesizes high-mannose glycans. In humans, the Man8GlcNAc2 structure is further demannosylated to Man5GlcNAc2 by Golgi mannosidases type I (MAN1A, MAN1B, and MAN1C). This N-linked glycan suffers further demannosylation and glycosylation processing by type II mannosidases (MAN2A1, MAN2A2), N-acetyl-galactosaminyl transferases (GlcNAcT), galactosyltransferases (GalT), fucosyltransferases (FUT) and sialyltransferases (STs). In humans, a glucosidase-independent trimming of Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 takes place, generating a Man8GlcNAc2 structure. In addition, lysosomal targeting of glycoproteins through modification with phosphate groups is only found in human cells.\nThe eukaryotic N-linked glycosylation pathway is divided in two sequential stages: (a) synthesis in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) of the dolichol-linked glycan precursor Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man9Glc3 and its transfer to a nascent protein and (b) the N-linked glycan processing and maturation in the rER and Golgi (Figure 1). Both stages require the action of different glycosyltransferases (GTs) and an adequate supply of donor substrates, which can be, depending on the GT family, nucleotide-activated sugars or dolichol-activated sugars.\nThe lipid dolichol used as a carrier in the first stage of N-glycosylation is a polymer of isoprene units (CH3\u2013C(CH3)=CH\u2013CH2\u2013) predominantly of 14\u201317 units in the baker yeast [7], 19\u201322 in humans [8], and of undetermined length in Candida. Dolichol is modified in the rER cytosolic face by human and C. albicans orthologue GTs Alg7, Alg13/14, Alg1, Alg2, and Alg11, using the nucleotide sugars UDP-GlcNAc and GDP-Man as donor substrates to synthesize the Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man5 intermediate. This intermediate is then flipped from the cytosol to the rER lumen, where synthesis proceeds by GTs Alg3, Alg9, Alg12, Alg6, Alg8, and Alg10 that use the dolichol-linked sugars Dol-PP-Glc and Dol-PP-Man as donors to synthesize the glycan precursor Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man9Glc3.\nThe flippase that translocates Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man5 has not been identified yet in any organism, although a critical accessory protein in yeast, Rft1, and its human ortholog have been proposed to participate in this process [9, 10]. Nonetheless, a recent work in Trypanosoma brucei, an early diverging eukaryote, has pointed that Rft1 is not the much sought after flippase, although it is critical for allowing maturation of the Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man5 intermediate once it is flipped to the rER lumen [11]. A putative ortholog of Rtf1 has been also found in C. albicans (Table 1).\nOnce synthesized, the Dol-PP-GlcNAc2Man9Glc3 precursor glycan is transferred en bloc by the oligosaccharyl transferase complex (OST) to Asn residues by linkage to carboxamide nitrogens. The Asn residues targeted for N-linked glycosylation are located, with rare exceptions, within the consensus sequence Asn-X-Ser/Thr (where X is any amino acid except proline) [12]. However, not all consensus sequences are N-linked glycosylated, because this protein modification is a co-translational process, and thus other factors are involved in selecting consensus sequences, such as accessibility of OST to the consensus sequence during the unfolded state of the protein. The OST complex has not been characterised in detail in C. albicans; however, the fungus encodes all the subunit orthologs found in S. cerevisiae OST, which is comprised of nine different transmembrane subunits: Wbp1, Swp1, Stt3, Ost1, Ost2, Ost3, Ost4, Ost5, and Ost6, where Stt3 is the catalytic subunit [13] (Table 1). Mammalian equivalents to yeast/C. albicans OST subunits are known and include: ribophorin I (Ost1) and II (Swp1), OST48 (Wbp1), defender against apoptotic cell death or DAD1 (Ost2), N33 (Ost3), magnesium transporter 1 (Ost6), and OST4 (Ost4) [14\u201316], (Table 1). In addition, two Stt3 protein orthologs (STT3A and STT3B) have been identified in plants, insects, and vertebrates [15, 17, 18]. The human STT3A isoform is primarily responsible for cotranslational modification of sequons when the nascent polypeptide enters the rER lumen. The STT3B isoform is less competent for cotranslational glycosylation, but mediates the posttranslational modification of skipped glycosylation sites in unfolded proteins [19]. The mammalian OST has been found in three complexes that exhibit different ribosome affinities and subunit compositions: OSTC(I),\u2009OSTC(II), and OSTC(III) [16]. Furthermore, two additional components found in the mammalian OST complex have been reported: KCP2 and DC2 [16, 20].\nOnce transference onto the protein is achieved, the pathway continues with the processing and maturation stage. Processing is carried out, in both human and C. albicans, by rER enzymes: the mannosyl oligosaccharide glucosidase I (MOGS/Cwh41) that removes the outermost \u03b11,2-glucose unit, and the mannosyl oligosaccharide glucosidase II which trims the following \u03b11,3-glucose residue exposing the Glc1Man9GlcNAc2 epitope [21] (Figure 1). In humans/Candida, glucosidase II is a heterodimer composed of two subunits, the hydrolytic\u03b1-subunit (GANAB/Rot2) and the \u03b2-subunit (GLU2B/Gtb1), see Table 1.\nThe Glc1Man9GlcNAc2 epitope is a key point of ER quality control of glycoproteins, as it binds to the calnexin/calreticulin (CNX/CRT) lectin that is a folding sensor associated to ERp57. At this point, glucosidase II removes the last glucose residue and, if correctly folded, the glycoprotein exits the rER after the \u03b11,2-mannosidase removes one Man residue from the middle branch of the N-linked glycan core, generating GlcNAc2Man8 (Figure 1). If the protein is misfolded, the glycan is reglucosylated by the action of the UGGT1 glucosyltransferase in humans and its ortholog Kre5 in C. albicans [22]. UGGT is a conformational sensor, regenerating the acceptor substrate for the calnexin/calreticulin lectin, starting a new deglucosylation step by glucosidase II. This cycle continues until the protein is correctly folded or targeted for ER-associated degradation [23].\nIn contrast to Candida, humans code for an endomannosidase (MANEA) located in the Golgi/ERGIC compartment that provides a glucosidase I and II independent pathway for N-linked glycan maturation. MANEA is able to remove the inner most Glc residue along with the Man residue attached to it, generating the GlcNAc2Man8 structure (Figure 1).\n2.1. The Fate of GlcNAc2Man8 in Humans\nThe further processing of the GlcNAc2Man8 structure is the divergence point between humans and C. albicans (Figure 1). In humans, the N-linked glycans are processed by Golgi-resident mannosidase IA, IB, and IC, which have different hydrolytic patterns but all generate Man5GlcNAc2. This glycan is then acted upon by glycosyltransferase GlcNAcT-I to generate a GlcNAcMan5GlcNAc2 structure that is acted upon by type II \u03b1-mannosidases. The type II \u03b1-mannosidases include the Golgi mannosidase II (MAN2A1), and in some cell types, additional mannosidases MAN2A2 and mannosidase III have been described as bypassing enzymes when mannosidase II fails to hydrolyse the N-linked glycan core [24\u201326]. The type II \u03b1-mannosidases remove the terminal \u03b11-3Man and \u03b11-6Man residues allowing addition of a second GlcNAc residue to give way to complex glycans. The GlcNAc residues can be extended with additional monosaccharide linkages involving galactose, fucose, or sialic acid residues. Furthermore, the hybrid and complex N-linked glycans found in humans may exist with two or more GlcNAc-bearing branches or antennae. In forming multiantennary N-linked glycan structures, GlcNAc residues may be added to the trimannosyl core by six different GlcNAc transferases (I\u2013VI) [27]. If type II \u03b1-mannosidases do not act or GlcNAcT-III bisects the GlcNAcMan5GlcNAc2 structure, hybrid glycans are then generated (Figure 1) [28].\nIn animals, N-linked glycans are terminated by sialic acid [29] in \u03b12,3-, \u03b12,6-, or \u03b12,8- linkages by specific sialyltransferases [30]. In humans, sialic acid is mostly of the N-acetylneuraminic acid form, in contrast to most mammalian species, where a mixture of N-glycolylneuraminic acid and N-acetylneuraminic acid is generally found. Sialic acid can be further modified by acetylation or sulphation [31]. This monosaccharide in view of its terminal position, linkages, and negative charge has been an important element in the evolution of animal glycan function [32]. Although \u03b12,3- and \u03b12,6- sialic acid have been identified in the cell wall of C. albicans [33, 34], no ortholog to vertebrate sialyltransferase or ability to synthesize sialic acid has been characterized in this fungus [35]. However, evidence of sialic acid synthesis has been reported in Aspergillus fumigatus [36] and C. neoformans, where sialyltransferase activity has been identified [37].\nAnother frequent modification of human N-linked glycans not seen in C. albicans is \u03b11,6- core fucosylation of the first GlcNAc residue, as well as terminal fucosylation on Gal or GlcNAc residues [38]. Nonetheless, fucose has been identified as a component of the cell wall of C. albicans [33] and binds the UEA-I lectin that is specific for L-fucose, more particularly to \u03b11,2-fucose. UEA-I binding was associated with increased adherence to epithelial cells [39]. Recently mass spectrometry identified \u03b11,6-fucose residues in oligomannosylated N-linked glycans of the fungi Cantharellus cibarius [40]. This raises the question on how this type of glycans are presented in the surface of mushrooms, as no FUT8 family member of fucosyltransferases responsible for this linkage has been identified in yeast nor mushrooms [38]. Although little is known about fucosylation and sialylation mechanisms in C. albicans or fungi in general, more information is hinting at their role in pathological human host interactions through molecular mimicry.\nFurthermore, human N-glycans can be phosphorylated to target glycoproteins to the lysosomes, through interaction with the Man-6-P receptor [41]. Phosphorylation occurs by modification of the GlcNAc2Man8 structure by a UDP-GlcNAc-dependent GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase (Figure 1) [42]. A GlcNAc phosphodiester is added to N-linked glycans on one of three mannose residues on the arm with the \u03b11,6- linkage to the core mannose. A second phosphodiester can then be added to the other side of the N-glycan or onto other mannose residues (Figure 1). Afterwards, the phosphodiester glycosidase in the trans-Golgi removes the GlcNAc to generate Man-6-P residues. The phosphate residues partially block the action of processing mannosidases, maintaining the N-glycans in an oligomannosyl form. Some hybrid N-linked glycans with Man-6-P can also be found. This sorting system of soluble proteins does not exist in C. albicans or other yeast species, but interestingly they contain the gene MRL1, which seems to be the ortholog of that encoding the human Man-6-P receptor [43].\n2.2. The Fate of GlcNAc2Man8 in C. albicans\nIn C. albicans, the N-linked glycan GlcNAc2Man8 is modified by proteins that have no human orthologs (see Table 2). The GlcNAc2Man8 core is recognised by Och1, an \u03b11,6-mannosyltransferase that adds the first mannose residue of the N-linked glycan outer chain [44] (Figure 1). This mannose residue works as a molecular primer to build the \u03b11,6-mannose backbone, which in S. cerevisiae is elongated by the M-Pol I complex (a heterodimer composed of Mnn9 and Van1) that adds 3 to 7 mannose residues [45] and then by M-Pol II, a multimeric complex composed of Mnn9, Anp1, Mnn10, Mnn11, and Hoc1 [46, 47] (Figure 1). Both, in vivo and in vitro studies have shown that Mnn10 and Mnn11 contribute to most of the \u03b11,6-mannosyltransferase activity of M-Pol II [47]. Thus far, there is only experimental evidence about Mnn9 role in C. albicans [48]; however, the encoding genes for all members of both complexes are present within C. albicans genome and it is likely they work as described in the baker yeast.\nTable 2: C. albicans nonhomologous proteins involved in the N-linked, O-linked, and GPI-anchor pathways.\nParallel to this process, the \u03b11,6-mannose polymer works as a molecular scaffold where branches of \u03b11,2-mannose residues are added by Mnn5 [49, 50]. These are further elongated by the mannosyltransferases Mnt4 and Mnt5 [51], and members of the MNN2-like gene family [52]. In S. cerevisiae, the branches are terminated with \u03b11,3-mannose residues added by action of the mannosyltransferase Mnn1 [53]. In C. albicans, these mannose residues are also present and are likely to be incorporated to glycans via the same protein [54]; however, it is most frequent that the \u03b11,2-mannose branches are further decorated and capped with \u03b21,2-mannose units [55]. The \u03b21,2-mannosylation is characteristic of this pathogenic yeast species and is carried out by members of the BMT gene family [56].\nAnother decoration attached to the \u03b11,2-mannose branches is the phosphomannan, which is a mannose residue attached to the N-linked glycan by a phosphodiester bond (Figure 1). This phosphorylation is not related to that found in humans and is partially synthesized by phosphomannosyltransferases Mnt3 and Mnt5 [51]. The identity of the enzymes involved in the addition of the rest of the phosphomannan remains unknown, although it is likely that members of the MNN4-like family contribute to this activity [57, 58]. As the N-linked glycan, the phosphomannan can be further \u03b21,2-mannosylated with up to 14 \u03b21,2-mannose units [59], by action of Bmt2, Bmt3, and Bmt4 [56].\n2.3. Functions of N-Linked Glycans in Humans\nThe N-linked glycans associated to glycoproteins participate in the calnexin/calreticulin ER quality control system of glycoprotein folding [60]. Furthermore, N-linked glycans are involved in protein stabilization and trafficking and serve as moieties recognized by receptors, thereby modulating binding by increasing or decreasing affinity. The N-linked glycans play from trivial to essential roles in glycoprotein function and are involved in most, if not all, cellular processes. There is clear evidence that this posttranslational modification is essential for homeostasis in multicellular organisms as has been demonstrated by clinical phenotypes, mostly multisystemic, of patients affected by congenital disorders of glycosylation, indicating that N-linked glycan integrity is required for normal tissue function [61].\n2.4. Functions in C. albicans\nThe N-linked mannans are essential for C. albicans viability, as demonstrated by treatment with tunicamycin, a drug that inhibits the action of Alg7 during N-linked glycan core synthesis [62]. Furthermore, they are quite important for cell fitness: defects in either the processing step by rER \u03b1-glycosidases or elongation by Golgi mannosyltransferases lead to longer duplication times, swollen cells, inability to perform proper cell separation, abnormal colony morphology, and impaired ability to undergo dimorphism [21, 44, 51, 63]. These pleiotropic defects are likely consequences of loss of the cell wall plasticity: mutant cells with defects in the N-linked mannan biosynthesis have rearrangements in the wall composition, including low mannan levels and high chitin and glucan contents, which led to increasing the sensitivity to cell wall perturbing agents such as tunicamycin, Congo red, Calcofluor white, hygromycin B, and caffeine [4, 21, 44, 50\u201352, 63]. Protein modification by N-linked mannans also modulates protein secretion, but surprisingly in a negative form, as shown in mutants lacking rER \u03b1-glycosidases, which display increased cell wall protein content [21]. In addition, biofilm formation seems to depend on N-linked mannans, as shown by the inability of tunicamycin-treated cells to form this kind of microbial consortiums [64]. Finally, and most important, N-linked mannosylation is required for normal cell adhesion and virulence [4, 21, 44, 50, 51, 63, 65\u201369]. The extent to which fucosylation and sialylation play a role in pathogenicity through the adhesion to the host surface, particularly extracellular matrix components, still requires further characterization in C. albicans.\n3. The O-Linked Mannosylation Pathway\nIn contrast to C. albicans that only synthesizes O-linked mannosyl glycans (O-Man), six additional types of O-linked glycans are found in humans, and are classified based on the first sugar attached to the amino acid residue: GlcNAc, GalNAc, galactose, xylose, glucose, or fucose.\nThe O-Man glycans were identified on brain proteoglycans more than 30 years ago [70], and the O-mannosylation of \u03b1-dystroglycan (\u03b1DG) has been the most studied. In contrast to C. albicans, human O-Man glycans contain only one mannose residue (linked to the protein) and are extended with other monosaccharides (Figure 2). In C. albicans, the O-Man glycans are composed of up to five mannose residues [71]. Most of the mammalian O-mannosyl glycans are variations of the common tetrasaccharide core NeuAc\u03b12-3Gal\u03b21-4GlcNAc\u03b21-2Man\u03b11-Ser/Thr, although branched structures with 2,6-di-substituted mannose (GlcNAc-linked \u03b21,2 and \u03b21,6) have been described in brain glycoproteins [72].\nFigure 2: The O-linked mannosylation pathway. Human O-linked mannosyl glycans have been characterized mainly in alpha-dystroglycan where POMT1/2 add the first mannose residue that is further extended with other monosaccharides by the action of glycosyltransferases. The mannose residue can also be phosphorylated by the action of POMK, allowing further modification by disaccharide repeats of xylose and glucuronic acid synthesized by LARGE and LARGE2. Fukutin and FKRP genes are needed for correct glycosylation, but their roles remain to be clearly defined. In C. albicans, mannosylation involves the addition of the first mannose residue by the action of Pmt1-5, and that is further extended with four additional mannose residues by the action of Mnt 1 and Mnt2.\nIn humans, the first mannose residue is added in the rER by protein-O-mannosyl-transferase 1 (POMT1) [73] and 2 (POMT2) [74], homologous to C. albicans Pmt4 and Pmt2, respectively (Table 3). Both enzymes perform their function in an essential complex that uses Dol-P-Man as sugar donor [75]. In humans, elongation of O-Man glycans is initiated in the Golgi complex by transfer of GlcNAc to the Man residue in the 2-OH position, mediated by the protein-O-mannosyl N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (POMGnT1) that uses UDP-GlcNAc as donor substrate (Figure 2) [76]. Alternatively, N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase IX (GnT-IX) can make branched structures transferring GlcNAc in \u03b21,6-linkage to the O-Man glycan [22]. Further enzymes directly involved in the elongation of O-Man glycans remain to be identified among families of \u03b21,4-galactosyltransferases and \u03b12,3-sialyltransferases.\nTable 3: Human and C. albicans homolog proteins involved in the O-mannosylation pathway.\nAnother O-linked glycan structure (GalNac\u03b21-3GlcNAc\u03b21-4Man\u03b11-Ser/Thr) has been reported in \u03b1DG [77] (Figure 2). This structure is further phosphorylated in the 6-position of O-mannose by the action of the Protein-O-mannose kinase (POMK) [78]. The LARGE and LARGE2 bifunctional glycosyltransferases act on the phosphomannose structure producing repeating units of [-3-xylose-\u03b11,3-glucuronic acid-\u03b21-] (Figure 2) [79, 80]. Two other proteins, FUKUTIN and FKRLP, with glycosyltransferase characteristics, are also involved in the formation of human O-Man glycans, but their function remains unknown.\nAs in humans, in C. albicans, this pathway starts in the rER and finalises in the Golgi complex. The synthesis begins with the addition of one \u03b1-linked mannose residue to Ser or Thr residues via an ester bond. This reaction takes place in the rER lumen and is catalysed by the protein-mannosyl transferases that use Dol-P-man as sugar donor [81]. This enzyme activity is performed by a family composed of five members that are subclassified in three groups: the Pmt1 (Pmt1/5), Pmt2 (Pmt2/6), and Pmt4 subfamilies [82] (Figure 2). The proteins encoded by these subfamilies do not have redundant activity in vivo, as each member has specific substrates [81\u201383]. In addition, these enzymes interact among them generating protein-protein interactions. In S. cerevisiae, Pmt1 interacts in vivo with Pmt2, and combined disruption of PMT1 and PMT2 results in more than 90% less enzyme activity in vitro [84]. Another predominant complex includes Pmt5 and Pmt3, but in the absence of Pmt5, Pmt3 can form a complex with Pmt1, and Pmt2 can form a complex with Pmt5 when Pmt3 is disrupted [84]. Pmt1, Pmt5, and Pmt6 have no human orthologs (Table 2).\nOnce the glycoproteins are transported to the Golgi complex, the O-linked glycans are further elongated by the Golgi \u03b11,2-mannosyltransferases Mnt1 and Mnt2 that have redundant activities to fully elongate the glycans [71, 85]. This mannan structure can also be phosphomannosylated, and in fact, the phosphosugar attached to O-linked mannans represents about 20% of total cell wall phosphomannan content [21]. However, the machinery involved in this process is different of that described for N-linked mannans, as Mnt3 and Mnt5 do not add phosphomannose to O-linked mannans [51]. Mnt proteins have no human orthologs (Table 2).\nAs mentioned before, sialic acid has been described in C. albicans [33, 36], and sialidase treatment has been shown to increase binding of the peanut agglutinin that has specificity for the Gal\u03b21,3GalNAc sequence present in human Core 1 O-glycans which has not been described in C. albicans. This suggests that sialic acid could be part of C. albicans O-linked mannans and the presence of uncharacterized galactosyltransferases.\n3.1. Functions in Humans\nThe best characterized mammalian O-linked Man glycoprotein is \u03b1DG (Figure 2). This protein is a glycosylated peripheral membrane protein involved in linking the cytoskeleton of neurons and muscle cells to the basal lamina through interactions with extracellular proteins; glycosylation of \u03b1DG is essential for its function [86]. To date, mutations in seven glycosyltransferase or glycosyltransferase-like genes have been reported to affect the O-linked mannosylation pathway and are causative for various forms of autosomal recessive congenital muscular dystrophies associated with variable brain and ocular abnormalities [87]. As it was mentioned earlier, O-Man glycans in humans are not highly mannosylated structures; they only possess a single Man residue. This divergence is functionally important in the immune systems recognition of pathogenic yeast and fungal microorganisms, including C. albicans. Highly mannosylated structures, as those found in yeast and fungi, are recognized as foreign by both circulating antibodies and elements of the complement system, including both the classical and alternative pathways [88].\nLoss of PMT2 or combined disruption of PMT1 and PMT4 led to nonviable cells, indicating that O-linked mannosylation is essential for growth and cell viability [81]. In addition, incomplete O-linked mannan elaboration has been associated with rearrangements in the cell wall composition, increasing sensitivity to cell wall perturbing agents, defects in morphogenesis, reduced tissue adhesion, defective biofilm formation, and virulence attenuation [71, 81, 89\u201391].\nThe O-linked mannans are key cell wall elements during the C. albicans sensing by immune cells. This cell wall component is sensed by TLR4 receptor [88], and loss of either O-linked mannans or TLR4 receptor has a negative impact on cytokine production by human PBMCs [88], on the proinflammatory response of oral epithelial cells [92], and on yeast killing by human polymorphonuclear cells [93]. Indeed, TLR4\u2212/\u2212 knockout mice are more susceptible to infections caused by C. albicans due a defective immune response against the fungus [94, 95]. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that simultaneous stimulation of dectin-1 and either TLR2 or TLR4 significantly enhances cytokine production in both human monocytes and macrophages [96, 97]. Therefore, it has been hypothesized that recognition of O-linked mannans plays a pivotal role, along with \u03b21,3-glucan sensing, in the establishment of a protective anti-Candida immune response.\nHowever, the relevance of O-linked mannans during C. albicans sensing is not the same for different kinds of immune cells, as yeast cells lacking both MNT1 and MNT2, and therefore expressing truncated O-linked mannans at the cell wall surface [71], are as good as the wild type control cells to stimulate binding and cytokine production by human dendritic cells [98]. Moreover, there are some C. albicans strains whose immune sensing is independent of recognition via TLR4, suggesting that the fungus might be able to modulate the production of this cell wall component [99].\n4. The GPI Anchors\nThe GPI anchors are complex structures that comprise a phospholipid tail, a glycan core, and a phosphoethanolamine linker (Figure 3). This structure is attached to the C-terminus of some eukaryotic proteins, allowing their anchoring to cell membranes or the wall. The core glycan, mannose(\u03b11-2)mannose(\u03b11-6)mannose(\u03b11-4)glucosamine(\u03b11-6)myo-inositol is highly conserved in eukaryotes, but it can be modified with other residues such as mannose, phosphoethanolamine (Etn-P), galactose, sialic acid, and others. The GPI synthetic pathway (Figure 3) initiates on the cytoplasmic side of the rER with the transfer of GlcNAc from the UDP-GlcNAc donor to phosphatidylinositol. This step requires several proteins that form complex (GPI-GnT), PIG-A/Gpi3, PIG-C/Gpi2, PIG-H/Gpi15, PIG-P/Gpi19, PIG-Q/Gpi1, and PIG-Y/Eri1 (mammals/yeast) [100\u2013107]; see Table 4.\nTable 4: Human and C. albicans homologous proteins involved in GPI glycosylation.\nFigure 3: The GPI anchorage pathway. GPIs are glycolopids that act as a membrane anchor for many cell surface proteins and are composed of an inositol molecule that is sequentially modified in the ER with a Man3GlcN glycan and phosphoethanolamine groups. Numbers show sequential steps for the synthesis of a Man3GlcN glycan bearing GPI. A GPI-transamidase complex acts upon the phosphoethanolamine group linked to the terminal mannose to add the surface protein. The C. albicans Smp3 adds a fourth mannose residue that is essential for protein transfer; but in humans it is not essential for transamidation and its expression appears to be restricted to brain and colon.\nNext, GlcNAc-PI is deacetylated by PIG-L/Gpi12, generating GlcN-PI [108], which requires crossing the rER membrane to continue the synthetic pathway within the lumen. This transport, as in the other protein modification described above, is carried out by a rER flippase. Then, inositol acylation takes place due to the acyltransferase activity of PIG-W/Gwt1, being the donor acyl-CoA [109, 110]. GPI mannosylation takes place using Dol-P-Man as mannose donor and begins with action of the mannosyltransferase PIG-M/Gpi14 in complex with PIG-X/Pbn1 that adds the first mannose (\u03b11,4-linked) to GlcN [111]. The second (\u03b11,6-linked) and third (\u03b11,2-linked) mannose units are transferred by PIG-V/Gpi18 and PIGB/Gpi10 mannosyltransferases, respectively [112\u2013115]. The enzyme Smp3 catalyses the addition of a fourth mannose residue (\u03b11,2-linked) to Man-3 of the glycan core, being an essential step in yeast and Candida cells, as it is required for subsequent attachment of phosphoethanolamine [116, 117]. Mammalian cells mostly transfer trimannosyl-GPIs to proteins and do not require the addition of a fourth mannose residue, but a human ortholog of the yeast mannosyltransferase Smp3 that adds a fourth, \u03b11,2-linked Man to trimannosyl GPI precursors has been identified, displaying high expression in brain and colon, suggesting that Man4-GPIs elaboration could be tissue-specific [117]. In C. albicans, Smp3 and is essential for viability and has been proposed to be a potential antifungal target [118].\nAn Etn-P unit can be attached to the first mannose of the glycan core as a side branch by PIG-N/Mcd4 and also to the second mannose by a complex of PIG-F/Gpi11 and PIG-G/Gpi7 [119\u2013121]. Finally, a moiety of Etn-P is added to the third mannose of the core, being this residue the one bound to the protein through an amide link. A transferase association between PIG-O/Gpi13 and PIG-F/Gpi11 is responsible for this step [122, 123]. The GPI synthetic pathway is highly conserved, but GPIs can be further modified in the lipid and glycan moieties depending on genus, species, and protein type [124].\nThe GPI-anchored proteins have a C-terminal sequence that directs the attachment of a GPI anchor. The removal of the C-terminal GPI signal sequence and its replacement with GPI on the lumen of rER are catalyzed by the GPI transamidase (GPIT), which is a complex consisting of the membrane proteins PIG-K/Gpi8, GAA-1, PIG-S/Gpi-17, PIG-T/Gpi16, and PIG-U/Cdc91 [125, 126]. In the first step of the GPIT-catalyzed reaction, the GPI signal sequence is cleaved and the newly generated \u03b1-carbonyl group is attached via a thioester linkage to the PIG-K subunit of GPIT. Nucleophilic attack on the activated carbonyl by the amino group of the terminal EtN-P residue of GPI regenerates GPIT and yields a GPI-anchored protein.\nAfter transfer, the inositol group introduced before mannosylation of the GPI precursor is removed in humans and yeast by the orthologous PGAP1/Bst1 deacylase ER proteins [127]. Yeast is able to remodel the shorter acyl chains of the diacylglycerol shortly after transfer to either base-labile C26:0/C26:0 diacylglycerols or to a base-stable ceramide consisting of C18:0 phytosphingosine and a hydroxy-C26:0 fatty acid. The remodeling initiates with the removal by PGAP3/Per1 of the acyl chain at the sn-2 position of the diacylglycerol [128, 129]. PGAP3-dependent removal of unsaturated fatty acyl chains at the sn-2 position occurs predominantly in the Golgi, whereas Per1 activity is located in the rER.\nNext, a C26:0 acyl chain is introduced at sn-2 by the O-acyltransferase Gup1 that is the only enzyme involved in GPI anchor synthesis in C. albicans that has no human ortholog [130]. The mammalian PGAP2 protein is involved in the subsequent introduction of a saturated (C18:0) fatty acid at sn-2 [131]. Mutations in the yeast gene that encodes a homolog of PGAP2, CWH43, albeit a much larger protein, cause cell wall abnormalities consistent with defects in cell surface anchorage of GPI proteins. In mammals, remodeling at sn-2 requires prior inositol deacylation by PGAP1 [129]. The PGAP3- and PGAP2-dependent remodeling activities, in turn, are necessary for the GPI-anchored proteins to associate with lipid rafts.\nThe obvious role for GPI-anchors is the attachment of proteins to cell surface. Examples include cell surface receptors (e.g., folate receptor, CD14), cell adhesion molecules (e.g., neural cell adhesion molecule), cell surface hydrolases (e.g., alkaline phosphatase), and complement regulatory proteins (e.g., decay-accelerating factor [CD55]). Human diseases arise by failures in this posttranslational process, stressing its importance for proper function of human cells. The paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a consequence of lower surface expression of GPI-proteins, due to clonal acquired mutations in PIG-A [132]. Inherited mutation in the promoter region of PIG-M impairs the binding of the transcription factors, resulting in abrogation of GPI mannosylation, leading to propensity to venous thrombosis and seizures [133]. Other congenital diseases involving defective PIG anchoring have been recently described [134].\nAs in human cells, GPI synthesis is essential for S. cerevisiae growth [101, 135]. C. albicans has 115 putative GPI-proteins, with diverse predicted functions, including adhesion to host tissues [136]. C. albicans GPI7 leads to an aberrant cell wall composition with increased chitin content and less protein abundance [137], while cells lacking Smp3 mannosyltransferase are nonviable [118]. Recently, it has been demonstrated that defects in GPI synthesis affect hypha growth [138]. Yadav et al. propose that Gpi2 and Gpi19 subunits of the GPI-GnT complex regulate ergosterol synthesis and RAS signaling, which explains the influence of GPI synthesis in the dimorphic switch [139]. Adhesins of the Als family are known to be GPI-proteins [140], so it is not surprising that virulence is attenuated in GPI mutants.\n5. The Glycosylation Pathways as Potential Drug Targets against Fungal Infections\nThe information gathered in the last decades about the human glycosylation pathways has helped to differentiate the normal processes from those found in neoplastic cells, and these are now explored as potential strategies to treat cancer [141, 142]. Since protein glycosylation is a key process for C. albicans fitness and virulence attributes [4, 143], it is assumed that the development of inhibitors for any of the glycosylation pathways may assist in treatment of candidiasis. Tunicamycin is one of the oldest N-linked glycosylation inhibitors that has been thoroughly characterised over the last decades. It affects the elaboration of the N-linked glycan core [144], and tunicamycin-treated cells of C. albicans lose the viability [21] and the ability to generate biofilms [64], making this molecule a potential anti-C. albicans drug. However, the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, dolichol phosphate GlcNAc-1-P transferase, the molecular target of this compound, is equally sensitive in both human and fungal cells [64].\nA promising strategy for treatment of C. albicans infections could be found in the rER glucosidase inhibitors, which have been used in the experimental control of some viruses [145\u2013149]. We have previously shown that C. albicans cells require processing of the N-linked glycan core in order to elongate their N-linked mannans, and loss of either glucosidase I or II led to virulence attenuation [21]. Since the human cells have a bypassing strategy for glucosidase trimming via the endomannosidase enzyme activity, it is feasible to conceive the potential low cytotoxicity of these drugs on the host cells. Celgosivir [150], PBDNJ0804-a deoxynojirimycin derivative [149], and CM-10-18 [147] are rER glucosidase I inhibitors that could show anti-C. albicans activity.\nThe O-linked mannosylation pathway can also be targeted for drug design. It was recently demonstrated that the rhodanine-3-acetic acid derivative OGT2468 is a PMT inhibitor in S. cerevisiae [151] and that it likely affects the same biosynthetic pathway in C. albicans. Whether this compound affects or not the elaboration of O-linked Man glycoprotein in human cells remains to be addressed.\nThe enzymes involved in GPI synthesis are also potential targets to develop new antifungal drugs. Gepinacin and E1210 were found to inhibit the fungal acyltransferase Gwt1, impairing the growth of fungal pathogens. Despite the functional similarity, gepinacin has no effect on the mammalian ortholog PIG-W. Assays on C. albicans cells treated with gepinacin indicate that they overexpose \u03b2-glucans on the wall surface, which triggers a better macrophage response [152\u2013154]. Development of Smp3 or Gup1 inhibitors would be of value in view of their nonessential nature or absence in humans, respectively.\nMetazoa (animals) and fungi derive from a common ancestor that existed ~1 billion years ago, nonetheless the basis of protein glycosylation pathways is strikingly conserved in spite of this period. In this review, we can look at the common bases and differences that emerge when comparing glycosylation mechanisms in C. albicans and humans.\nThe study of C. albicans glycosylation machinery is an important step to identify pharmacological targets to treat local or systemic candidiasis. Ideal pharmacological targets are represented by those elements only present in Candida. In the N-linked glycosylation pathway at least 16 GTs participate in mannan synthesis and are not present in humans (see Table 2), making this pathway an attractive alternative for drug design. Thus far, some promising approaches have been done with glucosidase inhibitors, but their toxicity in human cells remains to be addressed. In addition, rER-mannosidase inhibitors could be used as an alternative approach, as fungal cells only contain one mannosidase class I within the rER, and its loss is associated with virulence attenuation [21].\nThe above data indicate that fungal glycosylation pathways are promising for inhibitory compound screening that are species specific, both because of the presence of many nonhomologous proteins identified in C. albicans, particularly in the N-glycosylation pathway, and also because of the presence of homologous proteins that have a low degree of identity. Further studies should focus on developing compounds to inhibit the essential functions of glycosylation pathways taking into account these facts.\nH\u00e9ctor M.

        "raw_content": "Home Research GCR2018: Line Between Paid And Earned Is Blurring \u2014 And Many Consumers Don't Care\n2018 Global Communications Report finds that the trend towards branded content is an increasingly important ethical issue for PR industry.\nLOS ANGELES \u2014 Almost two-thirds (64%) of public relations professionals surveyed for this year\u2019s Global Communications Report predict that in five years the average consumer will not be able to distinguish between news stories written by journalists and promotional content purchased by an organization. And almost as many (59%) believe the average person will not care if they can tell the difference between the two.\nThe third annual study, released today by the USC\u2019s Center for Public Relations at the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism in partnership with The Holmes Report, is a comprehensive survey of more than 1,000 public relations leaders and students worldwide.\n\u201cAs traditional advertising revenue declines, media outlets are creating new sources of revenue through branded promotional content, which has blurred the historically clear-cut line between news and advertising,\u201d says Fred Cook, director of the Center for Public Relations. \u201cThis shift demands a higher level of transparency from business and greater level of media literacy from consumers.\u201d\nWhile consumers are unconcerned about the blurring line between paid and earned content, practitioners are worried: 42% believe the trend toward \u201cbranded content\u201d is a potential ethical issue. An even greater number (52%) are concerned about the related, fast-growing practice of paying celebrities, YouTubers or Instagrammers to create content that promotes various products and brands.\nAs a result, PR executives predict a decline of resources devoted to earned media over the next five years, as owned and paid media budgets continue to grow.\n\u201cThe PR industry will have to adapt to a world in which the lines between paid, earned, owned and shared media are not only blurring, but largely irrelevant in the minds of consumers,\u201d says Paul Holmes, founder of The Holmes Report and a partner in the research. \u201cBut at the same time, credibility and trust will be more important than ever. That means PR people need to apply even more rigorous standards of integrity and honesty to their work, whatever media they are using.\u201d\nThe report also highlighted some of the other ethical challenges facing the industry. The vast majority (92%) of professionals cited \u201cfake news\u201d as the most challenging ethical threat, followed by the purposeful distortion of the truth (91%). Defense of malicious behavior (88%) and lack of corporate transparency (81%) are also high on the list of potential ethical issues confronting communicators.\n\u201cToday, communications professionals regularly find themselves in the middle of complex ethical situations, which impact the image of their organizations and their profession,\u201d Cook says. \u201cAs we witness every day, even the slightest hint of unethical behavior can result in permanent damage to the reputation of a company or an individual.\u201d\nDespite these troubling issues, 46% believe that businesses in their countries have become more ethical over the past five years and 62% predict that business will behave even more ethically over the next five years. The same development applies to their own industry: 61% say PR will operate more ethically in the future.\nEven though 55% of public relations executives cite working for controversial clients as a potential ethical issue, 82% believe that all individuals, organizations and governments have the right to PR counsel. However, 95% of those same communicators state they personally would not represent or work for certain organizations, individuals or governments due to ethical concerns. Tobacco (79%) and firearms (74%) top the list of industries they believe represent potential ethical issues. Representing political candidates is not far behind at 60%.\nResearch USC News Global Communications Report",

        "raw_content": "Thieves pump diesel from school bus, steal chains\nFuel and chains were stolen from a Hood River County School District bus overnight Feb. 28.\nTransportation Department employees reported the loss of $750 in diesel and chains. A total of 85 gallons was drained from the fuel tank, apparently by a pumping system, according to mechanic Don Benefield.\nThe bus had an electrical failure while being driven on Highway 35 at about 9 p.m. Wednesday and transportation supervisor Cindy Sim said she instructed the driver to leave the bus there.\n\"We went up this morning to recover it and found it had been gone through,\" Benefield said.\n\"It's not so much the loss as the burden,\" Benefield said. \"With the fuel drained, you've got to prime the system again. The bus can't run when it's been drained.\"\nBenefield said he had to do so at the scene, and then was able to drive it back to the transportation facility in Odell. He said the fuel had been either siphoned or pumped from the tank aboard the 40-passenger bus.\n\"That's what's exasperating to me, is I don't know how they would have done it without a pump or drum tanks on the back of a truck,\" he said.\nBenefield has been with the district for a year, but he said he asked long-term mechanics and they had no recollection of anyone siphoning gas from a school bus.\nThe bus holds 90 gallons of fuel, and had only been driven 30 miles since filling, according to Benefield.\nDet. Matt English of the Hood River County Sheriff's Department said the case is under investigation.\nThe bright side of the crime might be that the hatch holding the tire chains was unlocked, according to Sim.\n\"I did not instruct the driver to lock the hatch, which is probably a good thing because they would have messed up the lock and caused even worse damage. It's a 'Catch 22' kind of thing,\" Sim said.\nDon Benefield",

Phillip, File)\nGovernor orders criminal probe of Texas gymnastics ranch\nGreg Abbott has ordered a criminal investigation into claims that former doctor Larry Nassar abused some of his victims at the Texas ranch that was the training ground for U.S. women\u2019s gymnastics\nTexas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered a criminal investigation Tuesday into claims that former doctor Larry Nassar abused some of his victims at the Karolyi Ranch, a Texas facility that was the training ground for U.S. women\u2019s gymnastics.\nAbbott ordered the Texas Rangers, the state\u2019s top criminal investigations unit, to look into ranch, which hosted training camps for more than a decade until earlier this year. The Walker County Sheriff\u2019s Office is already investigating.\nSeveral gymnasts have said Nassar abused them at the ranch. Nassar was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison last week. More than 150 women and girls have said he had molested them under the guise of medical treatment.\nAbbott called the allegations \u201cgut-wrenching.\u201d He ordered the state investigation because the claims involve multiple jurisdictions and states.\nRELATED: U.S. gymnastics doctor sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison\n\u201cThose athletes, as well as all Texans, deserve to know that no stone is left unturned to ensure that the allegations are thoroughly vetted and the perpetrators and enablers of any such misconduct are brought to justice. The people of Texas demand, and the victims deserve, nothing less,\u201d Abbott said.\nThe ranch is owned by former national team co-ordinators Bela and Martha Karolyi. USA Gymnastics cut ties with the ranch earlier this month, a few days after Olympic champion Simone Biles and said she dreaded the thought of having to return there to train. Other gymnasts have also said they were abused at the ranch.\n\u201cIt is impossibly difficult to relive these experiences and it breaks my heart even more to think that as I work towards my dream of competing in Tokyo 2020, I will have to continually return to the same training facility where I was abused,\u201d Biles said in a statement.\nNassar\u2019s accusers have said he would use his ungloved hands to penetrate them and other inappropriate touching when they were seeking treatment for back, hip, leg, foot and other injuries. Victims blamed Michigan State, USA Gymnastics and the U.S. Olympic Committee for not doing more to stop him earlier.\nJim Vertuno, The Associated Press\nThis Sept, 12, 2015 photo shows a training gym at the Karolyi Ranch near New Waverly, Texas.

        "raw_content": "DON\u2019T MISS THE BEST SUMMER FESTIVALS OF MALLORCA\nBesides the fun and vibrant party of Playa de Palma, there are other kinds of festivals on the island that we are sure you\u2019ll love. We are talking about the summer parties in Mallorca\u2018s villages which, as elsewhere else in Spain, are usually held in the summer to take advantage of the long days and warm nights.\nToday we recommend some of the best known summer festivals in Mallorca you cannot miss:\nJuly 3 - 26 - Summer festivities of Llucmajor\nThe first party we recommend is the Llucmajor summer festival, because it\u2019s held very close to our beautiful beach hotel in Playa de Palma and it lasts almost a month. Many activities are organised for both children and adults in the many different suburbs of the municipality, as well as workshops, competitions, popular meals, theater and many, many concerts.\nAugust 1 - Des G\u00fcell a Lluc a Peu (From G\u00fcell to Lluc on foot)\nThis walk, which starts at the G\u00fcell Bar of Palma and finishes at the Sanctuary of Lluc in Escorca, is one of Mallorca\u2019s most deeply rooted traditions and one of the most popular. Although it isn\u2019t a party as such, it is a celebration of \"mallorquinitat\" (being Mallorcan) to which everyone who appreciates the island is invited (more info).\nAugust 2 - Moors and Christians (Pollen\u00e7a)\nThe most awaited party in Mallorca, in which a reenactment of the battle between Moors and Christians takes place. People of Pollen\u00e7a dress as Moors or Christians and from 19h engage in an intense fight that fills the air with the smell of gunpowder and enthusiasm. Not your typical beach party in Mallorca, but you\u2019ll love it.\nAugust 28 - Sant Agust\u00ed (Felanitx)\nAnother essential date on the Mallorca summer festivals calendar. Local activities start at dawn in commemoration of the town\u2019s patron Saint, and throughout the day people from all over the island join this popular party in Mallorca. There, they will enjoy activities and concerts from noon until early morning.\nThese are just some of the best summer festivals in Mallorca, but there are many more! Do you like them? Have you ever been in a Mallorca beach party? You can tell us on our Facebook page.",

        "raw_content": "Sotheby's confirms the buyer of the shredded Banksy will proceed with the purchase at the original price\nThe provocative artist's latest stunt - shredding one of his own paintings after it had just sold for \u00a31 million - has garnered headlines around the world.\nThe street artist and activist Banksy has been attracting global attention for his subversive murals and artworks since the early 2000s, and the value of his work has risen meteorically. When a version of his famous piece Girl with Balloon sold at auction on Friday night for \u00a31.04 million, Banksy appeared to undermine even his own value by shredding the painting in front of startled onlookers at Sotheby's.\nBanksy's Instagram later featured the above video of the stunt, showing how he built a shredder into the frame in case it was ever up for auction. Sotheby's claims it is now in discussion with the buyer of the piece to consider how to proceed, but there is speculation that the shredding might even raise the value of the work, now that it is en route to becoming one of the most famous pranks in art history.\nGirl with Balloon appeared in its most famous incarnation on the side of a bridge in London's South Bank in 2002, and has become a ubiquitous image, and one of the most recognisable of Banksy's works. In 2017 it even edged out Constable's The Hay Wain as the nation's favourite work of art in a poll conducted by Samsung.\nSotheby's confirmed last night that the buyer would proceed with the purchase at the auction price.\nWe are pleased to announce that the winning bidder on @Banksy\u2019s \u2018Girl with Balloon\u2019 last Friday night in London has confirmed their decision to acquire the new work that was created in our salesroom. Newly titled \u2018Love is in the Bin\u2019, the piece has become the first artwork in history to have been created live during an auction. The buyer, a female European collector and a long-standing client of Sotheby\u2019s, is proceeding with the purchase at the same price as was achieved in the room on the night. \u2018Love is in the Bin\u2019 will be on view to the public in Sotheby\u2019s New Bond Street galleries in #London on Saturday and Sunday 13th and 14th October from noon until 5pm.

        "raw_content": "Settling Debt In Hazen, Arkansas - What Makes It Succeed? Finding The Ideal Debt Settlement Company In Hazen, Arkansas\nHave you been affected by financial debt? Don't know where to turn? Struggling with balancing the budget because your credit card bills take such a substantial portion from your income? This is the right time to consider Hazen, Arkansas debt settlement programs.\nDebt settlement is the best response to the difficulties of many clients who are overwhelmed by debt.\nDebt settlement organizations are juggling more consumers than ever considering that more and more people have business, credit card, medical, and student debt than ever before. For many people, the financial debt is much too big in comparison with their earnings to be acceptable as clients.\nStruggling consumers are able to retain the services of a debt settlement organization to enable them to figure out their consumer debt dilemma. For those who have debt from $10,000 to $100,000 or higher, you could find assistance in debt settlement programs. Your debt might be due to living expenses, school loans, or credit cards.\nDo You Know The Potential Benefits To Debt Settlement Programs?\nWhy should so many people choose the option of settling debt? A chance to stay away from a bankruptcy proceeding is one significant reason. A solution like going bankrupt is something which you can not ever truly escape from. If you can take a move that won't become a permanent mark on your report, it is a fairly easy choice. While the personal bankruptcy comes off of your credit after a decade, you'll be routinely asked about it on applications for employment, credit lines, and loans. With so many things down the road influenced by one time of difficulty when you choose to declare personal bankruptcy, you'll want to evade it if you're able to. Don't think it is as easy as being untruthful on the applications. That is an effective method to be charged with fraud. You might forfeit your employment and wind up in jail.\nThe wise solution is to protect yourself from going bankrupt from the start by opting for a debt settlement program instead. For many, settling debt is a last measure. The serious consequences of consumer bankruptcy make debt settlement programs a far more suitable approach.\nDebt settlement programs will stay on your credit report 7 years, which is not as long as a personal bankruptcy, plus it doesn't look as negative as a bankruptcy. Once it is removed from your credit profile, there is not any record of it. It'll never again impact your potential to carry out the things you want to do.\nSome feel that debt settlement cheats creditors of their due funds, but this is not the objective. Debt settlement is made for those who have no way of paying back the entire amount of consumer debt they owe. That's why it's often considered to be a last resport option. When you truly are unable to pay what you owe, debt settlement brings relief. When you think about the amount you've given credit card companies in charges and interest, it's a possibility you repaid them whatever you first invested.\nLooking at the differences among individual bankruptcy and a debt settlement program, creditors are aware that they will not get much if you go bankrupt. They could get absolutely nothing from you if you file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Collectors understand the truth of the situation, and that's why they're likely to agree to a settlement from a debt settlement service.\nYou won't take quite as long to pay off debt with debt settlement. Depending on your situation and plan, you might be able to pay back the debt within a year. Typically, a great debt settlement program enables you to achieve it in 2 to 4 years. If you pay what you owe in the typical manner, it would take much longer; and if you're looking into a debt settlement program, it's not an option . With additional debt relief options, like bankruptcy proceedings, debt consolidation, and consumer credit counseling, it will take 3-5 years.\nThough a bankruptcy proceeding ruins your credit score and your reputation, a debt settlement program will defend you against such effects. Your debt settlement strategy is not a question of public record. Someone who would like to find out could be made aware of your bankruptcy however. To discover these details, all anybody must do is sign up for an online subscription service that makes the records available at their fingertips. If they do not do this, they can always just go to a government bankruptcy courtroom and obtain the details there. A bankruptcy proceeding also harms your credit score. Your credit reports will reveal debt settlement programs, but your credit score won't be reduced.\nYour charge cards could continue to be available. In some circumstances the debt settlement arrangement will bar you from utilizing your credit cards, yet in most instances you will still have the ability to use them. This could be very useful in case you experience an emergency and need to keep utilizing your credit cards. Owing a lot of money to creditors might cause it to be difficult using current credit lines or applying for newer credit cards. The debt settlement objective might be lost if the credit lines are getting used.\nYou can manage debt a whole heck of a lot simpler. When you settle your debt, you don't have to account for multiple installments, at independent interest rates, to various collectors. It would all be reduced into a single monthly payment.\nYou will have a lower payment amount and rate of interest. By using debt settlement programs, you are going to end up with more affordable monthly payments and rates of interest. This means that you have more money in your wallet every month.\nNo debt help solution is without undesirable drawbacks, and you'll run into some of them with a debt settlement program. You could owe income taxes on the terminated financial debt, not all the settlement deals are approved, and you will see a noticeable impact on your credit standing. It is a tremendous headache to implement a debt settlement package, compared to just paying off all your debt on your own. Obviously, if you can't pay debt by yourself, it will still save you from consumer bankruptcy. Just like with any kind of option for consumer debt cancellation, you will need to weigh the merits of debt settlement against the disadvantages. credit card settlement\nHome and property loss is indeed a thing to consider. If you don't make the loan payments and used your automobile or your home as collateral for your debt settlement program, you could forfeit it. Collateral is frequently necessary to obtain the loan. Of course, you're not a reliable creditor, and they're going to need some kind of certainty that they will be paid back in the event you go into default or never pay them.\nThere might be hidden fees, and you'll want to be conscious of these before you start. Low installments and rates of interest will not ensure that you will not wind up having to pay more than you expect through debt settlement. Typically, debt settlement programs allow you to get a cheaper interest rate and payment per month in return for extending the payment period. The lengthened schedule of repayment can mean that you ultimately invest a lot more with time, particularly if you have been indebted for a long period.\nThere are income tax-related implications to think about. The Internal Revenue Service may find the forgiven financial debt to be taxed income. According to your position, you may have to pay taxes on it. Settled debts are taxable income if the credit card companies and creditors report the value to the Internal Revenue Service.\nA debt settlement solution may cost 10% to 20% of the balance you come to them with, payable throughout twelve months or so, in addition to one small application price. If you owe around $30,000, you're likely to pay around $3,000. Yet, it's much preferable to give them 10% if you get a 50% decrease in the balance of financial debt you owe to your creditors. You can see that if you take the time to look at the numbers.\nThe process of debt settlement entails a service making contact with your creditors and working to put together good deals with them to work out the debt on each account. Creditors could accept an offer for about half of what they are supposed to be paid - which can be fantastic for the client - who receives a sharp reduction immediately. The average rate is 60%, though the amount may fall somewhere between 40% and 60%. Companies generally agree to these significant deals in what they're supposed to be paid because they may not get paid anything at all without the debt settlement company. Consumer bankruptcy is a real threat for anyone who is making use of a debt settlement agency. This really makes the banks and creditors anxious. They already know people deal with substantial challenges that prevent them from paying for their bills. These folks don't have very much money, and the creditor or bank might never get paid.\nSettlement is not an option for individuals that are somewhat troubled with financial debt. It is a serious move for people who are drained of options. A debt settlement program is going to end up in your credit, and will decrease your credit worthiness, and it could hurt the chances of you receiving new credit cards and financial loans.\nWhen you've got only two choices, a bankruptcy proceeding or choosing settlement, then settlement is the most effective of them. It is not the best answer for individuals that still have other available choices. Do not consider a debt settlement program if there are other available choices. It is not the best strategy for anyone that only needs to evade paying their debt. It's for people who are out of alternatives.\nQuality, price range, and reputation are the biggest variables between debt settlement services. You should definitely pick one with great marks in each area.\nThough it can harm your credit score temporarily to complete a debt settlement, it's going to prove far better for your rating in the long run when you repay all your financial debt. This may require under twelve months, as it does for about one fourth of debt settlement customers. Another 3/4 or so achieve it in a two- or three-year period. Building your bank account takes time. You should get frequent communication from your debt settlement company. Many will reach out once per month, even if it is not needed. With an excellent debt settlement service, you are not struggling with debt on your own.\nHazen, Arkansas Debt Settlement Providers\nConsult your state Attorney General and customer protection agency before choosing a debt settlement service. If complaints have been registered, that is how you can see.\nConduct the important homework. Find out what type of service the company provides, what it charges, and the length of time it is going to take you to obtain the results you are looking for. Do not ever sign up with a company that wants a major advance fee, and consider what the debt settlement service will charge you for service.\nIf you can, look for a debt settlement company which offers support in person. You could get services on the phone, on the internet, or via local service, and it is a good idea to pick a service which offers all 3 opportunities. It is good to have phone contact, but you want to be able to talk to the specialist face to face too.\nMany services have a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status, but this does not imply that it's legitimate, free, or affordable. In reality, some debt settlement companies cost ridiculously elevated fees, that they might attempt to conceal.\nWhenever you focus a list of solutions, check for critiques.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/hattieville/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/heber-springs/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Oxford, UK: HT2 Labs have announced approval of their G Cloud application to become a listed vendor within the G-Cloud framework for cloud hosting, software and support suppliers within the Government\u2019s Digital Marketplace.\nIn April 2018, the Government Digital Service [GDS] and the Crown Commercial Service [CCS] announced their 10th update of the G-Cloud framework. With it, came a whole host of improvements to the services for organisations looking to offer their cloud technologies and support to the public sector.\nThe G-Cloud framework [first launched in 2012 as a UK Government initiative] was created to ease procurement by public sector bodies of cloud-based and technology services for example, web hosting and site analytics. Through establishing framework agreements between the Government and cloud suppliers, the publicly accessible portable, known as the Digital Marketplace, was formed. This allows public sector organisations to find and purchase cloud-based services, which is generally faster and cheaper than entering into individual full tender processes.\nIn May 2018, HT2 Labs submitted an application to be accepted as a vendor on the G-Cloud framework. Today, they are pleased to report that organisations within the public sector will now be able to purchase their innovative software via the Digital Marketplace.\nFor the company, the Digital Marketplace offers an indispensable level of exposure that isn\u2019t typically readily available for smaller suppliers or, \u2018start-up\u2019 companies such as themselves.\nTheir Curatr and Learning Locker platforms can be found under the G-Cloud framework, which is divided into the following three categories:\nCloud Hosting [e.g. content delivery networks or load balancing]\nCloud Software [e.g. accounting tools or customer service management software]\nCloud Support [e.g. migration services or ongoing support]\nHaving already worked on a number of projects with public sector bodies, the opportunity for HT2 to expand their customer base within the public sector, allowing organisations to experience what their software can offer to the user learning experience, is an exciting time for HT2 Labs.\nAs of today, organisations will be able to enquire, learn about and purchase the HT2 Labs software via the Digital Marketplace, enabling them to harness the power of data to enhance the learning experiences they offer to employees.\nIf you\u2019re coming to us from an organisation within the public sector, find out more about HT2 Labs as a Crown Commercial Service approved supplier on the Digital Marketplace.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Drill Music Isn\u2019t To Blame For Violence \u2013 It's Our Way Of Escaping Poverty\u2019, Says Rapper\nThe genre has come under fire for 'glamorising violence' \u2013 but Drillminister says it's an important outlet for young black men.\nThere is little agreement about what is behind the wave of stabbings that has swept through Britain this year. But one theme continues to crop up in the national discussion around knife crime: drill music.\nA sub-genre of rap music, primarily listened to by young people, the lyrics of drill music describe a world of gang warfare and violence.\nSpeaking to HuffPost UK, the artist and activist Drillminister, who says his main motivation is to defend the genre and \u201cget people thinking about the harsh realities that young people face\u201d, summed up what the new genre means to him.\n\u201cDrill music is the street\u2019s anthems,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is the news reported from the streets \u2013 directly to you, wherever you are, to your laptops and mobile phones.\u201d\nDrill entered the public consciousness earlier this year when Met Police chief Cressida Dick singled it out as one of the reasons for the increase in knife attacks in London, and said that internet companies have a duty to remove content that \u201cglamourises violence\u201d.\nWe didn\u2019t make society the way it is \u2013 we\u2019re just a reflection of it. We live in a cesspoolDrillminister\nThe Met asked YouTube to delete a number of music videos, and in May the platform confirmed that it had taken down some of the clips that the commissioner had requested be removed.\nAnother senior Met officer, Detective Superintendent Mike West, has said that the number of videos that \u201cincite violence\u201d have been increasing since late 2015, around the time that drill was coming into its own.\n\u201cThe gangs try to out-rival each other with the filming and content \u2013 what looks like a music video can actually contain explicit language with gangs threatening each other,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThere are gestures of violence, with hand signals suggesting they are firing weapons and graphic descriptions of what they would do to each other.\u201d\nLast week, East London knife attack victim K \u2013 a self-described fan of drill \u2013 told HuffPost UK that he believes drill is to blame for the increase in violent crime.\nDrillminister insists that this isn\u2019t the case. \u201cPeople that are blaming drill for violent crime in the UK don\u2019t understand it. They\u2019re just pointing the finger. It takes a smart person to delve in and see the truth behind everything that\u2019s going on.\n\u201cWe didn\u2019t make society the way it is \u2013 we\u2019re just a reflection of it. We live in a cesspool \u2013 so that\u2019s the music you\u2019re gonna get until the situation has changed. [Until then] the scenario\u2019s going to be the same.\u201d\nFor many drill artists, the music might create opportunities for legitimate revenue and a comfortable lifestyle that isn\u2019t always available to working-class black men, Drillminister says.\n\u201cThis is a way of getting out of the hood, making sure we can buy a property and keep our mums on the block and staying where our whole families are and having a community. Areas are becoming gentrified and people are being thrown out of their communities. This is how young men can be legit and get out of the same cycles of going jail and coming back out.\u201d\nHe says it is easy to marginalise forms of culture that are \u201cattached to the underclasses\u201d.\n\u201cIf we were playing banjos, they would be saying \u2018they\u2019re playing banjos and people are dying \u2013 yeah, we need to take the banjos out of the schools\u2019. It doesn\u2019t make any difference what imagery is portrayed. We will get pigeonholed, either way; we\u2019re stained, innit. That\u2019s how it is.\u201d\nUniversal Credit is messing up the hoodDrillminister\nSome of influences behind the genre are, Drillminister claims, economic. \u201cWe\u2019re going through mad austerity; people\u2019s mums are going through madness,\u201d he says.\n\u201cUniversal Credit is messing up the hood. The music will change when the situation changes. It\u2019s gonna get \u2019soft\u2019 when society is soft to us.\u201d\nOthers share Drillminister\u2019s concern that the music is being scapegoated for a wider social problem. Over the years, other music genres of black or urban origin have suffered similar treatment. In the early 2000s, there was a moral panic around grime, prior to it gaining mainstream popularity. In the 1990s, it was dancehall. In the 1980s, gangster rap was widely accused of promoting violence.\nDrillminister believes that some young people fall into a life of crime after being let down by the education system. \u201cI can\u2019t speak for every black person in the UK. Children are going to exclusion centres at 14 or 15 after getting kicked out of school,\u201d he says. \u201cChildren are not getting entered for GCSEs. Children are dropping out of school and making money their own way and surviving in their own way.\u201d\nHe says children listen to drill artists like him because they \u201creport the truths \u2013 what\u2019s not in school\u201d.\n\u201cNot just the violence; we\u2019re telling them other things \u2013 knowledge to help them make money and be able to make sure their mum has bread and butter in the house,\u201d he says.\n\u201cThat motivation doesn\u2019t come from school \u2013 they\u2019re teaching you what the square root of pi is...but not how to sort your finances \u2013 that\u2019s the reality of life.\n\u201cAny black person that\u2019s had to make it through this education system knows they had to work ten times harder than the man next to them. So that already shows you that the school are attacking black students \u2013 that\u2019s what it\u2019s there for, so drill is our way of making a new future for ourselves.\u201d\nMan Charged With Murder Of Drill Rapper Sidique Kamara Appears in Court\nFive Deaths In Six Days: What We Know About The Surge In London Stabbings\nThese Men Were Stabbed On Britain's Streets.

        "raw_content": "Elizabeth Warren Tells Obama To Put Up Or Shut Up On Trade\nWASHINGTON, DC - APRIL 13: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) delivers remarks during the Good Jobs Green Jobs National Conference at the Washington Hilton April 13, 2015 in Washington, DC. Sponsored by a varied coalition including lightweight metals producer Alcoa, the United Steelworks union, the Sierra Club and various other labor, industry and telecommunications leaders, the conference promotes the use of efficient and renewable energy and cooperation in updating the country's energy infrastructure. (Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)\nWASHINGTON -- Progressive Democrats have been hoping to see a showdown between Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton for years. Instead, they're getting a public feud between the senator from Massachusetts and President Barack Obama.\nObama accused Warren and congressional Democrats on Friday of being \"dishonest\" and spreading \"misinformation\" about the Trans-Pacific Partnership -- a trade pact the administration is negotiating among 12 nations. The overwhelming majority of Democrats in Congress oppose TPP, while Republican leaders support it.\nIt was an unusually aggressive attack for the president -- accusing members of his own party not of having misplaced priorities, but of actively working to deceive the public. Obama is rarely so severe even with his Republican opponents. Obama said that the Democratic criticism that \"gets on [his] nerves the most\" is the notion that his TPP pact is \"secret,\" and went on to insist that the terms of TPP will help American workers.\nOn Saturday, Warren and Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) responded with a letter essentially telling Obama to put up or shut up. If the deal is so great, Warren and Brown wrote, the administration should make the full negotiation texts public before Congress votes on a \"fast track\" bill that would strip the legislative branch of its authority to amend it.\n\"Members of Congress should be able to discuss the agreement with our constituents and to participate in a robust public debate, instead of being muzzled by classification rules,\" Warren and Brown wrote in the letter obtained by The Huffington Post.\nDemocrats and some Republican critics have been particularly frustrated by Obama's decision to treat the TPP documents as classified information, which prevents them from responding to Obama's claims about the pact in detail.\n\"Your Administration has deemed the draft text of the agreement classified and kept it hidden from public view, thereby making it a secret deal,\" the letter reads. \"It is currently illegal for the press, experts, advocates, or the general public to review the text of this agreement. And while you noted that Members of Congress may 'walk over ... and read the text of the agreement' -- as we have done -- you neglected to mention that we are prohibited by law from discussing the specifics of that text in public.\"\nWarren and Brown appeared particularly miffed at being accused of lying.\n\"We respectfully suggest that characterizing the assessments of labor unions, journalists, Members of Congress, and others who disagree with your approach to transparency on trade issues as 'dishonest' is both untrue and unlikely to serve the best interests of the American people,\" the letter reads.\nThe White House was not immediately available to comment.\nSome of Obama's claims about TPP on Friday took some creative license with the truth. He said that he wanted a trade deal that would allow American automakers to sell more cars overseas, without mentioning that Ford and autoworker unions do not support the pact. He also said that he had not included any language barring currency manipulation -- a key tactic by which Japan and China undercut American production -- because it might hamper the Federal Reserve's monetary policy operations. That scenario would only be possible if the pact defined \"currency manipulation\" in a particularly bizarre manner.\nThe Warren-Brown letter also includes a subtly vicious Democrat-on-Democrat dig, suggesting that Obama's trade transparency record is worse than that of former President George W. Bush. They note that Bush published the full negotiation texts of a major free trade deal with Latin America several months before Congress had to vote on giving the deal fast track benefits. The Obama administration has resisted calls to follow suit with TPP.\n\"What was true then remains true now,\" the letter reads. \"The American people should be allowed to weigh in on the facts of the TPP before Members of Congress are asked to voluntarily reduce our ability to amend, shape, or block any trade deal.\"\nThe Obama administration has been negotiating the TPP deal since the early days of his presidency. Democrats and a bloc of House Republicans lead by Rep. Walter Jones (N.C.) are concerned that the pact -- which has not been finalized -- will exacerbate income inequality and undermine U.S. authority to write its own regulations, while Obama and Republican leaders say the deal will help all Americans by boosting economic growth. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other top corporate lobbying groups support the deal, while environmentalists, organized labor and many Tea Party organizations are opposed. Warren and Brown said that corporate support for the deal shouldn't be surprising.\n\"Executives of the country's biggest corporations and their lobbyists already have had significant opportunities not only to read [the TPP text], but to shape its terms,\" the letter reads. \"The Administration\u2019s 28 trade advisory committees on different aspects of the TPP have a combined 566 members, and 480 of those members, or 85%, are senior corporate executives or industry lobbyists. Many of the advisory committees -- including those on chemicals and pharmaceuticals, textiles and clothing, and services and finance -- are made up entirely of industry representatives.\"\nBy focusing his attacks on Warren, Obama has elevated a quiet political quest to win over congressional Democrats into a prominent public debate with one of the most popular figures in his party, one widely seen as its standard-bearer on economic policy. Brown is one of the top Democratic experts on trade policy. His 2006 book detailing problems with the North American Free Trade Agreement and other trade pacts is celebrated by progressives.\nDemocrats have been wringing their hands about the potential damage the dispute on Capitol Hill could do to the party, particularly as the 2016 elections get into gear -- a concern that is only compounded by the vitriol now being exchanged between two of its most prominent figures. Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton has largely avoided addressing TPP in the early stages of her campaign.\nSherrod Brown Elizabeth Warren Politics Tpa Democrats",

        "raw_content": "One To Watch: Liverpool and Juventus Winger Target On The Road To Europe\nMarco Rojas says he will make the move from Australia to Europe, with multiple clubs believed to be keeping tabs on the 21 year old.\nNew Zealand youngster Marco Rojas has confirmed he will make the move to Europe, with the Liverpool and Juventus target saying he is looking forward to showing his skills to the rest of the world after a wildly successful season in Australia.\nAt just 21 years old, Rojas has set the A-League on fire, providing 15 goals and eight assists for Melbourne Victory, as well as winning the Player of the Season award as voted by his peers in just his second season at the club.\nAt the start of the year, buzz surrounding the starlet hit an all-time high when both Liverpool and Juventus sent scouts to watch him in action.\nStuttgart and Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga have also shown their interest, and there could be a possibility for Rojas to join fellow ex-Melbournians Mitch Langerak (at Borussia Dortmund) and Robbie Kruse (at Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach) in the German league.\nMarco Rojas has garnered interest from a number of clubs across Europe.\nIt was the attacking midfielder's ability to score spectacular goals that put him ahead of the pack in Australia, and he is clearly keeping his cards close to his chest as he mulls over where to make the move to in Europe.\nRojas' performance in January, when Liverpool directors were in town to talk about a group of friendly games in the country, was one to be talked about when those directors returned to base in Merseyside. He scored a goal against rival club Sydney and set up another to seal a 3-1 win.\nOn leaving Melbourne for Europe, the youngster said: \"When I get back I'll speak to my dad and we'll sort that out and I'm sure there will be some news coming out soon.\n\"It's every footballer's dream to play in Europe and I'm over the moon to be able to say I'm about to live that dream very soon.\"\nMelbourne coach Ange Postecoglou said of Rojas: \"He's rightly attracted plenty of attention around the globe for his efforts this year.\n\"We wish Marco all the best as he continues on his very impressive football journey.\n\"While we would have loved to have seen him stay here at Melbourne Victory for a little longer, we knew we couldn't stand in the way of his European ambitions.\n\"He's rightly attracted plenty of attention around the globe for his efforts this year.''",

Everyone knows how important it is to have money in savings for a rainy day. The rule of thumb is to have at least enough to cover three month\u2019s worth of expenses.\nThe best way to achieve this goal is to create a budget that you can comfortably live with. You may want to look at cutting back on expenses. Do you really need cable tv, that $4 a day coffee habit, or that weekly night out with the girls at that expensive restaurant? You could be spending thousands of dollars a year that could go into your savings plan. It\u2019s important to be extremely intentional about spending and saving money.\nNo one wants to think about difficult times, but smart women know they are a fact of life. When planning your finances, it\u2019s important to think about the unexpected such as a job loss or an illness. Would your current financial picture be able to sustain you during these difficult times? We now know that the average person will change jobs 5-7 times during the life of their career.\nThis will sometimes be a choice and other times the employee will be laid off or fired. It takes a job-seeker anywhere from 3-6 months to find a new job. How fast a job-seeker finds a new job can also depend on the state of the current economy. If you experienced a job loss, would you have enough in savings to support your standard of living until you found a new job? Many people would not be able to. They would have to rely on unemployment insurance or if they were lucky, a severance payout from their former employer. Having significant savings could help alleviate some of the financial stress of unemployment.\nWorse than a job loss is an accident or sudden illness. To a large extent, good health insurance will cover most medical expenses. But what about the day-to-day living expenses? Not only would you need a good health insurance plan but a good savings plan in place for your non medical expenses.\nAlso, short-term and long-term disability plans can help ease the burden of being incapacitated. Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) is another option. SSDI eligibility will depend on several factors. If you\u2019re only ill for a short while, hopefully you have short-term disability insurance through your employer or a private carrier. A long illness would require long-term disability. A long-term disability insurance policy will pick up where short-term disability stops. A long-term policy can pay up to 60%of the insured\u2019s salary. Not having long-term coverage in the event of a disability can be extremely devastating.\nEven if you are a smart woman and have a solid amount of savings in place, an illness or tragic accident would be life-changing personally and financially. Having a large amount of savings set aside will definitely help during this time. But what if your medical situation turns into a long-term illness? Your savings will probably be eventually depleted. At this point, Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) could help.\nTo be eligible for SSDI, you must have been employed a specific number of years and paid into Social Security. Social Security taxes are withheld from your paycheck. A specific number of work credits will be required. Social Security will look at past earnings to make sure you have enough credits to be insured. If you become disabled and have not worked the required years and meet the income requirements, you may be eligible for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).\nYou also have to meet certain medical conditions. Your condition must meet the Social Security Administration\u2019s (SSA) definition of disability. In terms of disability, severe means that the condition you have interferes with your work-related tasks. It also means your condition has lasted one year or is expected to last one year. There is also total disability. Total disability means you aren\u2019t able to do \u201csubstantial gainful activity \u201d for up to one year.\nAfter Social Security approves your application, there is a five-month waiting period. You will not receive benefits until you have been disabled for five full months. In many cases, it can take up to a year to start receiving benefits. You can continue receiving SSDI as long as you are unable to work. Your file will be reviewed by the Social Security Administration every one-three years to determine continued eligibility.\nPhoto by Lucrezia Carnelos on Unsplash\nCheat sheet for finances Financial Tips How to Save money saving tips retirement tips Saving Tips smart women the unexpected",

Use the words and quote images to feed your brain inspiring things daily!\nWork for a cause, not for applause. Live life to express, not to impress. Don't strive to make your presence noticed, just make your absence felt.\nOccasionally if you do something extraordinary, the crew responds with spontaneous applause, but that's very rare.\nWhat makes us exceptional, what makes us America is our allegiance to an idea articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. (APPLAUSE) That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, and among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.\nThe teacher always used me as an example to the class of good English and good storytelling because we all had to write the same stories. But she used to make me go out front - which I hated - and read my story to the class and I would get huge applause. Not because of who I was but because they truly enjoyed the stories I wrote.\nHe only is a great man who can neglect the applause of the multitude and enjoy himself independent of its favor.\nThe scent organ was playing a delightfully refreshing Herbal Capriccio - rippling arpeggios of thyme and lavender, of rosemary, basil, myrtle, tarragon; a series of daring modulations through the spice keys into ambergris; and a slow return through sandalwood, camphor, cedar and newmown hay (with occasional subtle touches of discord - a whiff of kidney pudding, the faintest suspicion of pig's dung) back to the simple aromatics with which the piece began. The final blast of thyme died away; there was a round of applause; the lights went up.\nComedy crowds - we always want to come out and ask you, 'How you feeling?' We always say that, 'By a round of applause, how do you feel?' Right? 'By a round of applause, how you feeling?' It's the only place in the world that you judge how you're feeling by a round of applause... There's never like a car accident, people all over the ground, people running over - 'Ma'am! Ma'am! By a round of applause, how do you feel? By a round of applause - she's not clapping!\nThe melancholy ghosts of dead renown, Whispering faint echoes of the world's applause.\nMost people like praise . . . When it is really deserved, most people expand under it into richer and better selves.\nI do not know whether anyone has ever succeeded in not enjoying praise. And, if we enjoy it, we naturally wants to receive it. And if we want to receive it, we cannot help but being distraught at losing it. Those who are in love with applause have their spirits starved not only when they are blamed off-hand, but even when they fail to be constantly praised.\nThe applause of all but very good men is no more than the precise measure of their possible hostility.\nPeople come into public life for different reasons. None of us are ego-challenged, I think, or we probably wouldn't be doing what we're doing, so if anyone tells you that they don't like the sound of the applause and the ego gratification, I don't think they're being straight with you.\nMany shining actions owe their success to chance, though the general or statesman receive the applause.\nAll this is a dream to me. Everything, the applause, the fans asking for autographs, the trips, all that is a dream.\nAs long as mankind shall continue to bestow more liberal applause on their destroyers than on their benefactors, the thirst of military glory will ever be the vice of the most exalted characters\u201d; \u201c[the barbarians\u2019] poverty secured their freedom, since our desires and our possessions are the strongest fetters of despotism\u201d; \u201cthe power of instruction is seldom of much efficacy, except in those happy dispositions where it is almost superfluous\nApplause is a constant thing in AA.

        "raw_content": "In AD 64, a fire destroyed much of Rome. It was rumored the fire had been ordered by the emperor to make room for a new palace. As a distraction, Nero blamed the Christians, who were then arrested, tortured, and condemned to death. It was not for the crime of arson; Christians were already being ridiculed and their humiliation was permitted.\nIn this climate, frightened Christians might decide God had abandoned them, seek to hide their identity, choose to believe He would not let them be harmed, passively await arrest and death, or continue to worship together with bold commitment to Christ. John Mark of Jerusalem responded to the needs of Christians to be strengthened in their faith. Just as Jesus accepted suffering and death and was strengthened by His Father, so too must Christians obey and persevere as a church, trusting in the sure knowledge that Christ is the living promise of God\u2019s salvation.\nAt the outset of Mark\u2019s account of the life and ministry of Jesus is the gospel. In Mark 1:1\u201345, Mark acknowledged Jesus is fully God who willingly chose to identify Himself with sinful man.\nIn Mark 2:1\u20136:6, Jesus showed He knows our needs before we know them ourselves. He was not indifferent to the material needs of His children but He also never lost sight of their deeper need for repentance and faith.\nThe message is clear in Mark 6:6\u20139:13: The call of discipleship is a call to suffer. There\u2019s a cost to following Jesus. As the world lies about what\u2019s truly important, Christians realize they deserve nothing from a good and holy God except His wrath\u2014yet He\u2019s given us everything! Jesus walked the path of suffering that led Him to take up a wooden cross and die for our sins.\nJesus called for a life of faith in Mark 9:14\u201313:37. Faith is a gift from a good God. We need to ask Him to help us have faith and place our faith in Jesus alone, not in ourselves or in others.\nIn Mark 14:1\u201316:20, Jesus fulfilled His mission. He willingly went to the cross. He died for the forgiveness of sins and then victoriously rose from the grave. The gospel is the good news of victory that is found in Christ alone. We, as His disciples, are called to proclaim this gospel to all nations.\nThe four Gospels are the authoritative testimony of the apostles to the life of Jesus. They were written, according to John, in order that we might believe in Him and be saved (John 20:21). They were also written so we might know what Jesus was like and how He lived, because we are to be imitators of Christ (1 Cor. 11:1; Eph. 5:1). The Gospels are a kind of specialized biography written to explain the most important periods of Jesus\u2019 life. You\u2019ll notice very little is said of Jesus\u2019 childhood or life prior to His public ministry that began around age 30. The Gospels are mostly a \u201cbiography\u201d of Jesus\u2019 final three years. They don\u2019t answer every question we have about Jesus, but they do tell us all we need to know!\nEach Gospel presents a portrait of Jesus that complements the other three. The Holy Spirit inspired Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John to include or omit features of Jesus\u2019 life, ministry, and teaching to give us a fuller picture of the Savior. Matthew, Mark, and Luke gradually show us who Jesus is as the Son of God, the Messiah sent from God to be the Savior of the world.\nJohn\u2019s Gospel starts differently by describing Jesus as the eternal Word and then showing us through various signs and \u201cI AM\u201d statements that Jesus is the innocent God-Man who dies in the place of sinners and then rises again to appear to His disciples.\nAll four Gospels assume and teach that Jesus has come to fulfill the Old Testament promises and that Jesus is the promised Messiah sent from God come to earth, the One who will also come again at a future date at the end of history.\nIn interpreting and applying the four Gospels:\nLet Jesus be the Hero. Remember that the main point of the four Gospels is to create and strengthen faith in Jesus. Interpret everything in that light.\nKeep it in context. Always interpret everything in context. What comes before and after a given passage is important. So is the overall flow of the book. It\u2019s also important to remember that Jesus comes to fulfill God\u2019s promises to Israel. This is the historical context in which we must read the Gospels: God sends Jesus to fulfill God\u2019s promises to Israel by rescuing ruined and rebellious people and to create something new: a worldwide, multi-ethnic people of God, His church.\nParables usually have a punch line. Parables were Jesus\u2019 most frequent form of teaching. They are stories that work a little bit like jokes or stories with a moral. Usually, a parable\u2019s punch line comes at the end. Some of Jesus\u2019 hearers get the parable; some don\u2019t. Jesus was a master teacher, and it seems He chose parables for that reason.\nParables, by and large, aren\u2019t allegories, and we should never read anything into the parables of Jesus that is not evident in the text. In many cases, Jesus Himself interprets the parables, and when He does, His interpretation is what the parable means\u2014no more and no less. On occasion, He turns the parable into an allegory, with a point of meaning assigned to each element in the story; when He does, that\u2019s what the parable means. Usually, however, we should look for the point or points that Jesus is making in the context of the larger story of the Gospel.\nWe should not impose anything on the parable that\u2019s not found in the context, and we should not press the details of the story that fall outside the main point or points being made.\nIn the Gospels, most people around Jesus got it all wrong. There are occasional exceptions\u2014like Mary in the story of Mary and Martha\u2014but these exceptions are rare. Don\u2019t assume we\u2019re meant to follow the examples of those around Jesus, unless they match a clear point of teaching.\nHe is risen! Read everything in light of the death and resurrection of Jesus. The end of the story casts its light back on everything that comes before.\nTwo questions to ask: When you read the Gospels, you probably won\u2019t go wrong if you focus on asking these two questions:\nWhat does this passage teach me about Jesus?\nWhat does this passage teach me about becoming and being a disciple of Jesus? (And what kind of people Jesus saves!)\n1 Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart. 2 But we have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways. We refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God\u2019s word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to everyone\u2019s conscience in the sight of God. . . .5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus\u2019 sake",

        "raw_content": "Trump's Health Care Plans for Small Businesses Could Lower Costs (But Skimp on Benefits)\nAssociation health plans would allow small-business owners to band together to buy or supply insurance in the large-group market.\nThe Trump administration is expected to issue a rule on Tuesday that would make it easier for small businesses to unite and create health insurance plans that cost less but offer fewer benefits.\nThe new entities, called association health plans, would allow small-business owners, their employees, and other self-employed people to band together to buy or supply insurance in the large-group market, The New York Times reports. The plans would make companies exempt from some of the requirements of the Affordable Care Act, like providing mental health care and maternity and newborn care.\nPresident Trump said the association health plans could \"provide more affordable health insurance options to many of Americans, including hourly wage earners, farmers and the employees of small businesses and entrepreneurs that fuel economic growth,\" according to the Times. About 11 million Americans could find coverage with the association health plans, according to the Labor Department, which would regulate the new entities as it does with other employee benefit plans.\nConsumer groups and state officials have criticized the plans, saying the new entities will pull healthy people out of the ACA marketplace and increase the costs for people who need insurance, the Times reports. Opponents of the plans also fear they will attract mainly companies with younger and healthier employees, while people with health problems will continue to use more expensive plans with more comprehensive health coverage.\nThe association health plans would help Trump achieve his campaign promise to make it easier for companies to sell insurance across state lines. The new rule carries out an executive order Trump signed on October 12, 2017.",

A coroner later counted 150 wounds on the body.\nThe girl was Sylvia Likens.\nShe was the daughter of carnival workers who in July 1965, as they headed out on the road, left her and her sister Jenny in the care of an impoverished, pill-popping mother of seven named Gertrude Baniszewski.\nWhat happened afterward, said Spurgeon Davenport, the Indianapolis Police Department's homicide chief and a 35-year officer, was \u201cthe most sadistic act I ever came across.\u201d\nFurther details unfolded in the coming months and were reported in the newspapers. The story became more shocking with each report.\nOn Oct. 27, 1965 the disturbing details of the crime began to unfold. (Photo11: Star archives)\nIndianapolis news archives tell of the horrific murder of Sylvia Likens\nSeveral Beat Slain Girl, 16, Police Told\nIndianapolis News, Oct. 28, 1965\u200b\nThe investigation indicated numerous young persons, plus the woman with whom the girl was staying, beat and tortured her over an extended period, police said.\nTortured Girl Buried; 2 More Minors Arrested (Photo11: Star archives)\nPolice Told of Tortured Girl's Last Days\nIndianapolis Star, Oct. 28, 1965\nThe 16-year-old girl was systematically beaten and tortured over a three-week period by at least 10 persons, probably more, police said.\nWhy did Sylvia die? (Photo11: Indianapolis Star)\nWhy Did Sylvia Die?\nGertrude Baniszewski told police that Sylvia had spread rumors at Tech High School that two of the mother's children by a previous marriage, Paula Baniszewski, 17, and Stephanie Baniszewski, 15, were prostitutes.\n\"My children are real religious children,\" she said as she sat in the police lockup wearing a green jail dress and brown sweater.\nFull House For Torture Death Hearing (Photo11: Star archives)\nFull House for Torture Death Hearing\nIndianapolis News, Nov. 2, 1965\nAn attorney looked at the overflow crowd in Municipal Court 6 and said, \"If some of these people had been this concerned about Sylvia earlier, she probably would be alive today.\"\nCourt Told Of Sylvia Likens Torture\nIndianapolis Star, Jan. 13, 1966\nTwo 12-year-old children, testifying at a habeas corpus hearing yesterday ... said other children rubbed salt into Sylvia's wounds, threw her downstairs and off chairs, and sprayed her with a hose.\nGirl In Slaying Case Ordered Held In Hospital\nJudge Saul I. Rabb ordered yesterday that Miss Paula Baniszewski be kept in Marion County General Hospital while convalescing from childbirth. She gave birth to a girl Thursday, and Rabb said he thought the jail would be a poor place for convalescence. The baby was named Gertrude, after Paula's mother.\nThe Baniszewski trial\nThe first-degree murder trial began in April. There were five defendants: Gertrude Baniszewski, 37, and two of her children, Paula Marie Baniszewski, 18, and John Stephen Baniszewski, 13, and two neighbors, Richard Dean Hobbs, 15, and Coy Hubbard, 15. Gertrude Baniszewski pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. The four teens pleaded not guilty.\nLikens Death Is Called Work Of A 'Madman'\nIndianapolis Star, April 30, 1966\nA weeping Jenny Likens was led from Criminal Court Division 2 yesterday as huge photographs of the fantastically mutilated nude body of her sister were shown.\nThe photos showed numerous deep cuts and round, dark punctures all over Sylvia's body. The entire left side of her face was discolored from the loss of skin.\nOne doctor yesterday described Sylvia's undernourished, scarred, punctured, discolored body as \"the work of a madman.\"\nThere were indications Sylvia had suffered intense pain, said deputy coroner Charles R. Ellis, noting that her lips were \"essentially in shreds,\" indicating she \"had been chewing on the lip.\" All her fingernails were broken backward, he said.\nSylvia Foresaw Death, Sister Sobs (Photo11: Star archives)\nSylvia Foresaw Death, Sister Sobs\nIndianapolis News, May 2, 1966\nThe sobbing sister of Sylvia Marie Likens today quoted her as saying, \"Jenny, I know you don't want me to die. But I am going to die. I can tell it.\"\nSister Ends Story In Likens Case\nJenny wiped away tears from her eyes several times as defense attorneys riddled her with questions about why she didn't aid her dying sister. Sixteen-year-old Jenny, crippled by polio when she was four months old, said she didn't get help because she was \"scared for one thing ... and ... they kept beating on me.\"\nErbecker (Gertrude's attorney) asked, \"You could have told the neighbors about this, couldn't you?\"\nJenny, near tears again, answered, \"yes, but that doesn't mean I wanted her to die.\"\nLikens Trial Jury To Hear Daughter\nIn her statement Paula (Baniszewski) said, \"In three months I beat Sylvia Marie Likens about 25 times,\" with a police belt. \"I have pushed her down the stairs several times and knocked her down once,\" the statement read. \"I have seen my mom beat Sylvia ... burn Sylvia with a cigarette, and also push her down the steps several times,\" the statement continued.\nBoth statements were read aloud to the jury. While Paula's statement was being read, Mrs. Baniszewski turned her head and glared at her daughter.\n'I Was Sick,' Says Mrs. Baniszewski (Photo11: Star archives)\n'I Was Sick,' Says Mrs. Baniszewski\nIndianapolis News, May 10, 1966\nMrs. Gertrude Baniszewski said today she had taken so many pills on the day Sylvia Marie Likens died that \"I couldn't remember what happened.\" The 37-year-old woman, one of five on trial for first-degree murder in Sylvia's slaying, said the drugs included \"phenobarbital and other medication.\"\n'Kids Kicked, Beat Sylvia': Mrs. Baniszewski\nGertrude Baniszewski denied she had any part in the torture slaying of Sylvia.\nBoy Tells Court of Etching Sylvia (Photo11: Indianapolis Star)\nBoy Tells Court of Etching Sylvia\nRichard Hobbs, 15-year-old neighbor of Gertrude Baniszewski, yesterday took the witness stand in his defense and told how he etched words on Sylvia Marie Likens' stomach and how he branded her. \"Sylvia was in the basement. ... Gertrude called her upstairs to the kitchen,\" the boy said. \"Somehow the conversation got around to tattooing,\" Hobbs said.\n\"Gertrude asked Sylvia whether she knew what a tattoo was\"... and she said ...\"You branded my children so now I'm going to brand you.\"\nMrs. Baniszewski selected a sewing needle and told Sylvia to take her clothes off, he said. He said the woman then pulled a chair up in front of Sylvia and wrote the phrase \"I am a prostitute and proud of it\" on a piece of paper.\nHobbs said the woman scratched the letter I and part of the \"M on am\" and asked him to finish because she was \"getting sick.\"\n\"I etched in short light strokes,\" Hobbs said.\nHe also said he hit (Sylvia) four or five times during the etching because she \"flinched.\"\n2 Women Scuffle For Seat At Trial\nTwo women scuffled over a seat at the Sylvia Marie Likens murder trial today and one came off the loser \u2014 the lost seat and a cut hand. A big crowd stood outside Criminal Court 2 as the trial entered its fifth week and when the doors were opened at 8:30 a.m., the big rush for the 50 seats was under way.\nCourt authorities could not explain how the woman received the cut, but she returned after getting first aid.\nThe courtroom's 50 seats filled up quickly most days, but Judge Rabb sometimes allowed as many as 100 spectators to stand against the walls.\nGertrude Baniszewski pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, but three psychiatrists said she was sane. (Photo11: Star archives)\nMrs. Baniszewski Has 2 Sick Spells\nLater, as a court-appointed psychiatrist was testifying, (Gertrude Baniszewski) became ill again and Judge Saul I. Rabb called a recess. The psychiatrist, Dr. Dwight W. Schuster, testified that in his opinion Mrs. Baniszewski was sane Oct. 26, 1965, the date Sylvia's death occurred in her home, 3850 E. New York, and is sane now.\nSylvia's Torture Compared To Nazis' Brutality\nHolding a picture of Sylvia's mutilated body, (Gertrude Baniszewski's lawyer William) Erbecker paced in front of the jury box asking, \"Is that the actions of a sane and normal person or the actions of a person who has lost contact with reality?\"\nHe said, \"How can anybody look at that woman and say she's sane?\n\"You'll have to live with your conscience the rest of your life if you send an insane woman to the electric chair.\"\n2 Sob As They Get Life Terms In Likens Case\nGertrude Baniszewski, 37, and her 18-year-old daughter Paula, this afternoon were sentenced to life imprisonment. ...\nMrs. Baniszewski's 13-year old son, John Stephen, and two neighborhood boys, Coy Hubbard, 15, and Richard Hobbs, 15, all were sentenced to 2-to-21 year terms at the State Reformatory on manslaughter charges.\nMrs. Baniszewski and her two children who were convicted burst into tears when Judge Rabb read the sentences. Mrs. Baniszewski, sobbing audibly, held John Stephen in her arms.\nIn 1966 Star reporter John Dean, who covered the trial, wrote a book about it, \"The Indiana Torture Slaying,\" which sold 125,000 copies. Dean later became a lawyer, and he changed his name to Natty Bumppo. He practices in Brownsville, Ky.\nRichard Dean Hobbs, Coy Hubbard and John Stephen Baniszewski were released from the State Reformatory in Pendleton on Feb. 27, 1968. Hobbs died four years later of cancer. Hubbard married and had five children and died in 2007. John Stephen Baniszewski died in 2005.\nIn 1971, the Indiana Supreme Court overturned the convictions of Gertrude and Paula, saying that jurors had been prejudiced by publicity and that the trials should have been held separately. At a second trial Gertrude was again convicted of first-degree murder. She was paroled in 1985. She changed her name to Nadine Van Fossan and moved to Iowa and died of lung cancer in 1990.\nPaula pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in August 1971. She was released from prison on Dec. 6, 1972. In October 2012 a school district in Conrad, Iowa, received an anonymous tip. One of its teacher's aides, 14-year veteran Paula Pace, described by The Star as \"a quiet and friendly woman who often helped students,\" was previously Paula Baniszewski from Indianapolis. Pace/Baniszewski was promptly fired.\nJenny Likens married and had a son and a daughter and lived in Beech Grove. She died in June 2004.\nIn June 2001, a memorial to Sylvia Likens, a 6-foot granite block, was unveiled in Willard Park, 1700 E. Washington St. Several hundred people attended the dedication ceremony, including Fred Lawrence, a high school classmate of Sylvia's who on Oct. 26, 1965, happened to be walking past the Baniszewski house as Sylvia's body was carried out. \"She's always been on my mind,\" Lawrence told The Star.\nIn 2008 a film about Sylvia Likens' murder, \"An American Crime,\" aired on Showtime.\nThe Baniszewski house, which was frequently vacant and had become a neighborhood nuisance by drawing curiosity seekers, was demolished in April 2009. \"I'm glad they leveled it,\" Mary Weaver told The Star. She lived down the block and as a child knew Sylvia Likens. \"Maybe now she'll be at peace.\"\nIn May 2015, Sylvia's older sister Dianna Bedwell, who as Dianna Shoemaker had tried to check on Sylvia in the weeks before Sylvia's death, got lost driving in a remote area of California with her husband while on their way to their son's house. They were found two weeks later. She was taken to a local hospital for treatment. Her husband, Cecil Knutson, was dead. He died of a heart attack.\nRead or Share this story: https://www.indystar.com/story/news/crime/2015/10/23/indianapolis-most-sadistic-act-sylvia-likens-gertrude-baniszewski-torture-slaying-indianapolis-news-indianapolis-crime-crime-horror-torture/74209878/",

        "raw_content": "Jason Reitman To Direct New \u2018Ghostbusters\u2019 Movie \u2013 Direct Sequel To 1989 Film Will Ignore 2016 Version\nFans may finally get their wish of a third \"Ghostbusters\" movie in the original film universe.\nWhen the 2016 version of Ghostbusters was revealed to be about a new all-female team, many fans were skeptical of what may end up in theaters. The film that ended up in theaters is one that made $229 million at the global box office on a budget of $144 million, and almost all talk of a sequel has ceased. Now, all of a sudden, there is word that a sequel to the original two movies could come in the summer of 2020 and it will be directed by Jason Reitman, the son of the director of the original films.\nThis new movie will be the supposed third part of a trilogy that follows up both of the first two movies. It is not going to be connected in any way to the 2016 film that starred Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones as the new spirit-fighting team.\nIvan Reitman is the man who directed both Ghostbusters in 1984 and Ghostbusters II in 1989, and according to Variety, his son Jason will helm the new movie. Sony Pictures is moving ahead with this movie and they\u2019re looking to begin shooting this summer and are planning to release it in theaters in the summer of 2020.\nWhile there is very little known about the plot of the movie, sources say that Reitman has been test-screening teenagers for four mystery roles. Obviously, those would most likely be the roles of the four Ghostbusters, but that is not yet confirmed.\nIt is not known if Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, or Ernie Hudson will have roles in the film, but again, there isn\u2019t much that has been made public at all. Of course, Harold Ramis, who played the part of Egon Spengler, sadly passed away in February of 2014.\nThere was no surprise that it was quite difficult to get original cast members such as Aykroyd, Murray, Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, and Annie Potts to be in the 2016 version. It will be interesting to see if Sony can get them back for this new film or if they will even want them there.\nGhostbusters 3 will be the first tentpole film for Jason Reitman who is the man behind movies such as Up in the Air, Juno, and Thank You for Smoking. His dad\u2019s Montecito Pictures will produce the film and it is believed that this is Ivan\u2019s way of \u201cpassing the torch\u201d to his son for one of his biggest franchises.\nFor 30 years, hardcore Ghostbusters fans have been waiting for a true sequel to the original two films even though they received the reboot in 2016. Sony has been keeping this project very quiet, but they are making it a big-time priority due to being so financially fruitful. The third film in the original franchise has used the fake title of \u201cRust City,\u201d but the news is now out and it appears as the Ghostbusters \u201care ready to believe you.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "One very popular type of conversion is a barn conversion. Barns up and down the country have been turned into beautiful homes over the past few decades. Some barns in the past were turned into Oast houses to be used as kilns to dry out hops for the brewing process for beer, which makes them a good example of Vernacular architecture.\nTheir distinctive conical roof was originally designed to increase draught to dry out the hops faster. If you have noticed some difference in the shape of Oast houses, that's because, at the turn of the 19th Century, the older square ones were replaced by round kilns as they were said to be more efficient.\nArchitecturally Oast houses tend to have higher ceiling heights and wall shapes, which really can make a unique home.\nIf you would like to live in an unusual property then Intercounty Saffron Walden has a beautifully recently converted, three bedroom Oast House for sale in Newport. Developed in 2012 the property provides the perfect blend of contemporary and old. The kitchen and dining room as expected in this type of house has really high ceilings and doorways enhancing the amount of natural light coming into the property.\nThe property looks stylish inside and out as the current owners have put a modern twist on the decor, which gives the whole place a retro-chic feel. They have also used a neutral colour palette throughout which has been complemented with blue pops of colour, so a buyer could easily move in and just add their own colour if they wanted to.\nIf you would like to find out more about this unusual family home then why not check out the website or call Intercounty on 01799 522641.",

These Are the Easiest Countries to Move to If You\u2019re an American\nEasiest Countries for Americans to Move\nYou\u2019ve spent your entire life living in the United States (U.S.), but now, you\u2019re beyond ready for a change. And if you\u2019re serious about making that change, you\u2019re not alone.\nResearch shows that around 258 million individuals \u2014 or one in 30 \u2014 were not living in their birth countries in 2017. That\u2019s a record high. And it doesn\u2019t look like this trend will be slowing down over the next few decades.\nThe great thing is that if you have a U.S. passport, you have a powerful document that grants you access to around 186 countries with no major restrictions.\nAt the same time, considering that the majority of tourist visas have one- to three-month caps, making the transition to living abroad can quickly become frustrating.\nDon\u2019t worry, though. There are a handful of countries that are no doubt the easiest countries to move to. Here\u2019s a rundown on the top ones you may want to call home in the near future.\nEasiest Countries to Move to Include Mexico\nIf warm weather is high on your must-have list for your new country of residence, why not make your way to Mexico?\nAmericans are allowed to live in Mexico for as long as six months without a visa. Of course, if you\u2019d like your beach tan to be more permanent, you can apply to get a visa for temporary residents, which will last you four years.\nConsulates have varying requirements, but to stay in Mexico long term, you\u2019ll likely have to prove that you\u2019re making at least $2,000 a month or have $80,000 in savings every month.\nPerhaps hot weather isn\u2019t as critical to you. In that case, why not head north to Canada?\nCanada is generally welcoming and warm toward Americans. But the warm, fuzzy reception you\u2019ll get initially will start to melt away if you plan to stay in Canada for more than six months.\nIn this situation, you\u2019ll need to get a visa. The alternative is to get married to a Canadian local if you\u2019re lucky enough to find your soul mate in the Great White North \u2014 and, of course, if your current spouse doesn\u2019t mind this.\nIf you\u2019re planning to go the visa route, Canada\u2019s skilled trade program will allow you to work in the country if you have specific skills. The demand for certain skills varies by the province.\nHowever, some companies are part of a relatively new program called Global Talent Stream. If you capitalize on this program, you can obtain a work visa in just a couple of weeks versus six months. You can\u2019t beat that.\nThe countries of Scandinavia \u2014 Sweden, Norway, and Denmark \u2014 are widely known for their gender equality and excellent quality of life. However, they are also recognized for having immigration policies that are generous, making them doubly attractive.\nThe Schengen Agreement stipulates that if you travel to one of these countries, you cannot stay there longer than 90 days within a span of 180 days. But if you obtain a work visa there, you can stay past the 90 days.\nStill, an even more attractive option exists above the Arctic Circle.\nThe Schengen Agreement does not apply to Norway\u2019s Svalbard archipelago, so you can work and live there without a visa indefinitely. Note, though, that you\u2019re required to carry a firearm to protect yourself against polar bears if you venture outside of settlements.\nYou can remain in the United Kingdom \u2014 including Northern Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and England \u2014 for as long as six months without a via. However, if you receive a job offer in the United Kingdom, you can pursue a work visa.\nThe great news on the visa front is that following the Brexit vote, the United Kingdom decided to make the process of applying for a work visa easier, in addition to doubling these visas. A double bonus.\nYet another perk is that the exchange rate after the Brexit vote makes the United Kingdom an attraction financial option for anyone who has U.S. dollars.\nStill, if your employer in the United States happens to be moving you to the United Kingdom, be sure to ask them about a cost of living allowance (COLA), where they cover any increase in the cost of living that you may experience. International COLAs are especially wise to recalculate frequently since currency and inflation rates are constantly fluctuating.\nRead more here about how COLAs work.\nIf you\u2019re looking for the farthest escape possible from the United States, you can\u2019t beat going \u201cdown under.\u201d\nIf you are 18 to 30 years old, you can obtain a working holiday visa that will last you a year in New Zealand and Australia. This number may eventually jump to 35.\nIf you are not a millennial, you may still be able to work in these countries if you possess skills that are in demand there. So, if you happen to be a pig farmer or a motorcycle mechanic, head on down to New Zealand and Australia, respectively!\nYou\u2019ll have work waiting for you.\nIn addition to highlighting the easiest countries to move to from the United States, we offer a wealth of travel tips for those looking for an adventure in life.\nFor instance, we offer a glimpse at Canada\u2019s lovely Vancouver, as well as a glimpse at what it\u2019s like to live in Puerto Rico.\nIn addition, you can find out through our website if marijuana is legal to consume in the United Kingdom. You can even discover the most delectable Mexican drinks and foods to try.\nOur goal? To give you both information and inspiration that will add value to your future travel experiences, whether you\u2019re going on vacation or planning to relocate abroad.\nTake a peek here to find out more about what the world has to offer you in 2019 and beyond.\nWanna Get Away?

        "raw_content": "The First Ten Years of AU and Its Performance in Peace and Security\nWhile Africa and the AU have a long way to go in terms of addressing the causes, triggers and accelerators as well as consequences of conflicts, the AU has, however, shown dramatic increase in its response to the peace and security challenges. Moreover, the AU has also contributed to the surge in democratic profile of Africa and the AU assembly of heads of states.\nAfrica now faces fewer inter-state wars and more intra-state conflicts and new emerging transnational threats. With more localized manifestations and geographic coverage, current African conflicts are not civil wars that engulf an entire country. Although local, their impact is usually regional and global. International responses and the role of global actors such as the UN and the NATO have been too intrusive. Conflicts could not be handled locally by a state or a community affected, or by the sub-regional organs or regional bodies. As a result, the AU Constitutive Act has increased the interventionist posture of the AU inline with the \u201cAfrican Solutions for African Problems\u201d.\nDespite progress, the AU faces serious binding constraints in facilitating the achievement of a peaceful, prosperous and integrated Africa: leadership and management deficiency, lack of the will and commitment to implement already existing policies and treaties. Thus, while the AU has been extremely suc-cessful in the formulation and adoption of norms and institutional frameworks, however, it rather failed in implementing these policies.\nIn order to remove these deficiencies, the AU needs to swiftly implement these policies in cooperation with member states to increase its impact and relevance on the ground. Through delivery, the AU can gain popularity and legitimacy at grassroots level.",

        "title": "The Central African Republic abandoned to its violent fate | The Japan Times",
        "raw_content": "State of anarchy: Child soldiers of the Seleka coalition sit near the presidential palace in Bangui on March 25. Four months after a violent coup, the people of the Central African Republic are \"living in a constant fear\" as the rule of law has collapsed. | AFP-JIJI\nThe Central African Republic abandoned to its violent fate\nby Mark Townsend\nLONDON - It was dusk when armed Seleka rebels dragged the teenager from the road leading north toward Kobe. They pulled her into the jungle and raped her for several hours. Her friend, Lisa Moussa, 17, was more fortunate. As soon as she saw the rebels, she began running. They tried to kill her, shooting until she stumbled and fell. The gang caught her and frogmarched her to a police station and threatened to rape her until her father paid 6,000 Central African francs for her release.\nMoussa lives in Kaga-Bandoro, a town deep in the jungle of the CAR, which was tipped into anarchy when the Seleka rebels overthrew the government and seized power four months ago. The United Nations has declared the entire 4.6 million population to be victims and the country among its most dangerous destinations. Its refugee agency has called it the \u201cmost neglected crisis in the world.\u201d Medecins Sans Frontieres warns that the country had been \u201cabandoned to its fate.\u201d\nAlthough lootings and killings have been widely documented in the capital, Bangui, reports detailing the extent of the atrocities being committed in the country\u2019s vast hinterland remain scant, particularly in the north, where the Seleka uprising began.\nRoads are impassable due to banditry and the rainy season. Kaga-Bandoro, 300 km north of the capital, can only be reached via a mud airstrip, landing straight into a rebel stronghold where the rule of law has collapsed completely. Evidence of human rights abuses in the far north are clear. Seleka rebels have repeatedly mass-raped the region\u2019s women, say locals.\nWomen are said to have been killed for refusing to have sex or surrender their food. Men have been executed, tortured or have simply disappeared, witnesses say. Children have been recruited and, according to witnesses, provide a substantial proportion of the armed gangs. The Seleka rebels, it seems, are becoming more numerous and more violent. War crimes against civilians continue to be committed.\nEvents in Kaga-Bandoro were not only foretold but could have been prevented. Yet the world refused to heed the escalating security warnings or answer requests for increased humanitarian funding. Europe\u2019s arms companies, with Britain a principal player, continued to flood the country, which has the world\u2019s second-lowest life expectancy, with military hardware.\nWomen appear to be the main target of the rebels. \u201cMost of the time women are the victims of the atrocities. They attack them, sexually abuse them, rape them,\u201d said Thibault Ephrem, 25, who lives in Kaga-Bandoro. The Seleka seem to attack most frequently at night, prowling the streets of Kaga-Bandoro to abduct women and girls. \u201cIn our Abdala neighborhood, if you go anywhere late at night when you are on your way back home they capture you or shoot you,\u201d said Moussa.\nKiringuinza said the rebels would melt away, only to suddenly return, beating people randomly and shooting throughout the night so \u201cwe are unable to sleep.\u201d\nAlbert Vanbuel, the town\u2019s Catholic bishop, said Kaga-Bandoro\u2019s 26,000 population were trapped in a state of terror. Vanbuel says they have been utterly abandoned by the international community, allowing the Seleka to commit war crimes against civilians with impunity.\n\u201cThere is nobody to help the population. There are no authorities, no militaries. When you resist, they kill you,\u201d he said.\nIt is impossible to verify how many people have been killed. Ephrem says he knows of around 100, pointing to a looted petrol station whose owner was dragged on to the forecourt and shot. Benezon described how men were shot in the chest at close range and tortured. He had found bodies killed by the rebels, but how many lie undiscovered in the jungle is unknown. Similarly, how many have disappeared, taken into the jungle to never return, is impossible to ascertain. \u201cWe don\u2019t see them again, they just take them,\u201d said Vanbuel, who believes 60,000 of the region\u2019s 130,000 may now be hiding in the jungle.\nIt is also unclear how many have perished from illness, succumbing to a diet of roots and the leaves of manioc plants. At night the tens of thousands decamped within the jungle are impossible to locate \u2014 the CAR is regarded as the least light-polluted country in the world, its darkness due to its lack of development.\nBy day, the exodus has rendered Kaga-Bandoro silent. Outlying villages lie deserted, torched to the ground. Even the sprawling U.N. compound 3 km from the town has been looted, its food stores pillaged. Mother of seven Marguerite Mallot, 57, said: \u201cThey burned my son\u2019s house that he uses for selling things. \u2026 They are still taking people\u2019s sheep, food and any other stuff by force.\u201d\nAnyone whose task was to monitor events in the CAR knew the atrocities were close to inevitable. The U.N. Security Council was first briefed last December over a rebel offensive involving a coalition called Seleka operating from the settlements north of Kaga-Bandoro. During the next six months it would be briefed seven times over Seleka\u2019s evolving threat. No effective action was agreed.\nIn the U.N. field office in Bangui, however, officials were becoming acutely concerned over the effectiveness of a plan to pay off fighters who agreed to disarm. Exactly one year \u2014 on Dec. 14 \u2014 before the UNSC received its initial assessment on Seleka, officials in Bangui told the security council that a lack of funding to complete the disarmament process could push the country \u201cto the brink of disaster.\u201d\nOn April 4, and evidently starting to panic, the U.N. office in the CAR hastily organized a donors\u2019 conference. According to a security council report pledges were made by just two countries: Luxembourg offered \u00a367,000 and Australia \u00a3134,000, despite \u00a314.2 million being required to complete the disarmament and reintegration process.\nWhen questioned recently, the U.N. said that around 5,000 former fighters were disbanded under the program. Yet practically none was Seleka. The lack of money meant that the northeast, where Seleka drew their fighters, was untouched.\nFurther pleas from the U.N. office in Bangui followed: The country was at a \u201ccritical juncture\u201d and needed outside help. Tensions among the thousands of fighters amassed in the north were growing, voicing frustrations that promises made under a peace deal had not materialized. Late last year five rebel groups elected to amalgamate forces: Seleka was born.\nStill, the international community did nothing. Interest in the CAR remained negligible, a malaise perhaps symbolized by the fact that the Twitter following for the U.N. office in Bangui stands at 14. Britain, along with the CAR\u2019s colonial owner France, is among those accused of neglecting the country. A Foreign Office source said he could not recall if a U.K. minister had ever visited the country. The British ambassador is based in Cameroon, 800 km away.\nIn January the Africa minister, Mark Simmonds, told Parliament the U.K. was \u201cactive\u201d on the security council discussion on the CAR. What he didn\u2019t say was that the U.K. cuts its annual aid to the republic from \u00a32.7 million to \u00a31.29 million two years ago, though an emergency \u00a35 million package was recently announced. Fundraising attempts have been characterized by failure. A U.N. request for \u00a3129 million of aid received \u00a340 million. A recent UNICEF emergency appeal outlined a need for \u00a321 million, but received under \u00a36 million.\nSwimming against the tide is Kristalina Georgieva, the European commissioner for humanitarian aid and crisis response, who admitted being motivated by \u201cguilt\u201d and a sense that the world had turned its back on the CAR. Georgieva, who has visited the country, has secured an emergency \u00a34 million aid package and says a \u201cmuch more forceful contribution from the international community\u201d is needed.\nThere is a darker narrative rarely mentioned by ministers or commissioners, however. Bangui-based Pascal Hounier, of the European commission\u2019s humanitarian department, said: \u201cArms are flooding into the country. There were many AK-47s, now there are rocket-propelled grenades and heavy weaponry. If someone wants to buy a weapon in CAR, it\u2019s very easy, $10 to $20.\u201d\nSince 2005 the U.K. has been the fourth largest European exporter of arms to the CAR. Britain is Europe\u2019s largest arms exporter to Uganda and the third largest to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, both CAR neighbors. The Seleka rebellion has been boosted by large numbers of foreign fighters and warlords from Chad and Sudan. Britain is the fourth largest supplier of arms to Chad and the second largest to Sudan, both officially regarded as \u201ccountries of concern\u201d by the Foreign Office. Almost \u00a3670,000 of mainly tanks and vehicles have been sent to Chad; exports to Sudan include weapon sight mounts. The U.K. has emerged as the second largest exporter of arms to the volatile state of South Sudan \u2014 and its sole supplier of explosive devices.\nTo the east another threat is starting to emerge. Below the canopy of forests that smother eastern CAR, the cultlike militia of Joseph Kony is on the move. Attempts to catch the leader of the Lord\u2019s Resistance Army (LRA), once the focus of the world\u2019s largest manhunt, have become clouded with doubt. Seleka have refused to cooperate, compromising the efforts of 100 U.S. special forces and 3,000 mainly Ugandan troops to capture the warlord, who is accused of abducting tens of thousands of children and hacking off civilians\u2019 limbs, lips and noses.\n\u201cThe threat is moving north. For weeks we have seen an increase in attacks. If we have a state in crisis who cannot push back the LRA, we can expect more attacks. If CAR becomes a safe haven, then it\u2019s a real problem for the country and the region,\u201d said Hounier.\nKony\u2019s reliance on child soldiers has been mimicked by Seleka. Witnesses in Kaga-Bandoro describe youngsters involved in the killings. The concern is that a state with no functioning schools and minimal employment prospects will lead to a generation of youngsters joining the rebels. Hounier added: \u201cMore children are joining and it gets more difficult to get them back. There has been a lot of recruitment.\u201d\nSigns indicate that the Seleka are mushrooming into a significant force, their fighting strength of 5,000 now thought to have quadrupled.\nScores of child soldiers have been rescued and are being rehabilitated in a center near Bangui. Papy Kabwe of the center confirmed that every Seleka chief had an allocation of children that they used in the recent killings.\nIn Bangui, the atmosphere remains tense. Despite assurances that armed militia have been removed from the streets, convoys of gangs can be seen speeding through its suburbs and are blamed for looting and indiscriminate shootings. The country\u2019s infrastructure has been effectively demolished. Human rights groups say the justice system has been dismantled, the prisons destroyed. The army has been disbanded. Just 200 policemen are left in the entire country.\nBut it is away from the capital where the crisis is most pronounced. Malnutrition rates have skyrocketed and malaria cases have risen by 30 percent since the Seleka assumed control. Latest assessments reveal 484,000 people at risk of food insecurity, with more than 206,000 people displaced. Georgieva warns of a \u201cmulti-headed monster\u201d of armed groups running amok in a state the size of France, free to plunder as they wish.\nThe likes of Moussa can do little but wait for the rebels to return.\nCentral African Republic, Seleka",

Maeda pitched five scoreless innings in the first game of a five-game series. | KYODO\nWelcome to Japan: Tetsuto Yamada drives in a run during the fourth inning of Japan's 2-0 win over the Major League Baseball All-Stars on Wednesday. | KYODO\nOpportunity knocks: Japan's Nobuhiro Matsuda steals second base ahead of Robinson Cano of the Seattle Mariners in the fourth inning of Wednesday night's game. | KYODO\nMaeda handcuffs MLB stars as Samurai Japan wins Game 1\nOSAKA - Hiroshima Carp ace Kenta Maeda pitched five shutout innings to lead Samurai Japan in a 2-0 victory over a group of visiting major league stars in Game 1 of the Japan All-Star series on Wednesday night in Osaka.\nEight years ago under Bruce Bochy, this year\u2019s World Series championship manager with the San Francisco Giants, the MLB stars won the series 5-0. So much for a sweep this time.\nMaeda, who went 11-9 with a 2.60 ERA this past season, got rolling strong in a match-up against Los Angeles Angels right-hander Matt Shoemaker, the 28-year-old who went 16-4 with a 3.04 ERA as an American League Rookie of the Year finalist.\nMaeda, who has become a hot topic of MLB talk, scattered just two singles while issuing two walks in a 71-pitch outing.\n\u201cI am happy to finish my outing with a satisfying result, especially in the first official game of the series,\u201d Maeda said.\nThe Carp right-hander has come under the radar as a target of the posting system, although his team indicated last month it is unlikely to accept bids for him this winter.\n\u201cThey made me throw a few more pitches than I would have wanted to in the first inning, but I found my rhythm after that. It was good to complete five innings. I felt they have a dangerous lineup,\u201d he added.\nHiroki Kokubo\u2019s Samurai Japan drew blood in the second.\nFukuoka Softbank\u2019s Seiichi Uchikawa hit a leadoff single on a line drive to right and Hayato Sakamoto followed with a double to center.\nUchikawa then scored on a sacrifice fly by Nobuhiro Matsuda, but got some assistance from Dexter Fowler, whose throw was off line and allowed Sakamoto to advance to third on the play.\nSakamoto had a one-out single in the fourth.\nHe was out at second on a force on Matsuda\u2019s grounder to shortstop, but the MLB team failed to turn a double play that gave its opponent another opening.\nMatsuda, who was safe at first as second baseman Robinson Cano\u2019s throw was slightly off target, stole second and came around on Tetsuto Yamada\u2019s line drive to left to make it 2-0.\nTohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles catcher Motohiro Shima kept the inning alive when he singled to right to put runners at the corners, but Hawks leadoff man Yuki Yanagita struck out swinging to end the inning.\n\u201cI got a changeup. I struck out in my first at-bat, so I was determined to put the bat on the ball even if I fell behind in the count,\u201d Yamada said.\nPerhaps the biggest highlight of the night was Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters right-hander Shohei Otani, who got a chance to showcase his flamethrower arm with relief in the eighth. He retired the side in order, clocking heat of 159 kph at one point.\nIn the best-of-five series, a pitcher may not throw more than 80 pitches in a game.

        "raw_content": "John Boyega calls for rude Star Wars fans to stop with all the harassment\nFor quite some time, the Star Wars community has been a bit of a hot mess. Granted, a majority of the fandom is made up of fun-loving types who want nothing more than to embrace the newest chapters of the time-honored space saga. Unfortunately, lately it feels as if the minority of haters are louder than the rest of the crowd. One Star Wars actor who's had more than enough of the nay-saying is John Boyega, who plays Finn in both STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS and STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI. After watching two of his fellow cast mates remove themselves from social media due to an endless stream of harassment, Boyega has taken to his own Twitter account where he's called for all the trolls to return to the shadows beneath whatever bridge they call home.\nIf you don\u2019t like Star Wars or the characters understand that there are decisions makers and harassing the actors/ actresses will do nothing. You\u2019re not entitled to politeness when your approach is rude. Even if you paid for a ticket! \uf937\uf3fe\u200d\u2642\ufe0f\nBoyega then posted a follow-up to his original tweet in an effort to thank fans who've stood by the franchise through thick and thin:\nTo the majority of Star Wars fans thank you for supporting and putting yourselves in our shoes. You understand that there is a process so much appreciated !\nThe tweets are a part of Boyega's response to watching both Daisy Ridley (Rey) and Kelly Marie Tran (Rose) exit their social media platforms after no longer being able to stomach the hateful, racist, and sexist vitriol spewed at them from the sewer holes of combative Star Wars fans. It's to note that Boyega isn't the only Star Wars alum who's come to the defense of both Ridely and Tran, as both STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI director Rian Johnson and Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill have also expressed their frustrations with the small-minded minority.\nRELATED: The Last Jedi's Kelly Marie Tran deletes social media posts after harassment\nOn June 5th, Johnson posted a message to Star Wars haters via his own Twitter account saying \"On social media a few unhealthy people can cast a big shadow on the wall, but over the past 4 years I\u2019ve met lots of real fellow SW fans,\" He then added, \"We like & dislike stuff but we do it with humor, love & respect. We\u2019re the VAST majority, we\u2019re having fun & doing just fine.\"\nHamill also fanned the flames by posting a photo of himself and Tran along with the hashtag #GetALifeNerds. A caption for the photo read \"What's not to love?\" While I have a lot of personal thoughts related to the subject at hand, I'll let you all have at it in the comments section below.\nMay the force be with you all ... unless you're an asshole.\nLATEST IMAGES AND POSTERS View the Star Wars: The Last Jedi Image Gallery\n2017, action, Adam Driver, Adventure, Carrie Fisher, Daisy Ridley, Fantasy, John Boyega, Mark Hamill, Oscar Isaac, Rian Johnson, Science-Fiction, Star Wars: The Last Jedi",

An attorney and civil engineer as well as a twice-elected county prosecutor, Lorenzetti is seeking the seat held by Commissioner Peter Onoszko, a Republican of the Charles Town area. Lorenzetti said [\u2026]\nCHARLES TOWN\u2014Former Jefferson County prosecuting attorney Ralph Lorenzetti is running as a Democrat to represent the Harpers Ferry District for the Jefferson County Commission.\nAn attorney and civil engineer as well as a twice-elected county prosecutor, Lorenzetti is seeking the seat held by Commissioner Peter Onoszko, a Republican of the Charles Town area.\nLorenzetti said observing discord and lack of collaboration among county commissioners in recent months prompted him to run for office. He maintained that Onoszko and \u201cthe two newest\u201d Republican commissioners have been dismissive of local residents and county employees.\n\u201cThere\u2019s too much animosity between the commissioners and not as much input from the citizens of the county and the employees of the county,\u201d he said.\nDiscussions and votes last year by Commissioners Onoszko, Josh Compton and Caleb Wayne Hudson to trim a $40 ambulance fee by $5 particularly provided motivation to run for the county office, Lorenzetti said.\nReducing the ambulance fee, he said, was unwise as a short-term decision that disregarded the long-term funding needs of ambulance services and county services.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s just too narrow a view they\u2019re taking,\u201d he offered. \u201cWe have a county that is basically a nice place to live, and I don\u2019t want to see that change.\u201d\nIf elected, Lorenzetti said he would spend deliberate time listening to county residents and county employees during commission discussions, something he said Onoszko, Compton and Hudson have failed to do.\nOf advice county staff provide commissioners, he said, \u201cYou\u2019re paying for their input, so make use of it.\u201d\nLorenzetti said he had no particular goals as county commissioner yet. Instead, he plans to spend the next few months meeting and listening to county residents and county employees before setting any policy agenda.\n\u201cI\u2019m just going to go out and meet as many people as I can and hear their views,\u201d he said, \u201cand if I get elected I\u2019ll try to put what I hear into use.\u201d\nA native of Arlington, Virginia, Lorenzetti holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in civil engineering from Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, a master\u2019s degree in environmental engineering from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan; and a law degree from West Virginia University.\nAfter arriving in Jefferson County in 1982, he started a law practice and an engineering survey company. Soon after, to ease the workload of a county prosecutor\u2019s office with only two staff members, he began working part-time as a county assistant prosecuting attorney. As the office\u2019s caseload steadily increased over the years, so did Lorenzetti\u2019s work on criminal and civil cases.\nBy 2000, he began working full time as an assistant prosecuting attorney. In 2008, he ran and won election as chief prosecutor and did so again four years later.\nAfter retiring in 2016, he ran for an open 23rd Judicial Circuit Court judge seat, drawing the most of votes in Jefferson County. He took second place overall in a four-way contest for the judgeship.\nHe also served five years as a first lieutenant in the West Virginia Army National Guard.\nAlso running as Democrats for the Harpers Ferry District commission seat are Kevin Carden, Harpers Ferry\u2019s elected recorder, and Greg Lance, a former county commissioner and Ranson mayor.\nOther Republicans running for the commission seat are first-time candidates for public office Gary Cogle Jr., a Jefferson County businessman and a senior auditor for the West Virginia State Auditor\u2019s Office, and David C. Tabb, owner of an automotive repair and excavation company in Harpers Ferry.\nLast Saturday was the deadline for county residents to file as candidates for two seats up for election on the Jefferson County Commission. The other seat is a Middleway District seat where incumbent Jane Tabb is facing Republican Jack Hefestay, both of Kearneysville, and Democrat Carol Grant, of Shenandoah Junction.",

        "raw_content": "Milledgeville's Rebecca Waite ready to steal track and field spotlight\nRebecca Waite is no longer in anybody\u2019s shadow \u2014 in fact, the Milledgeville senior is hoping to be right smack dab in the middle of the spotlight when the track and field season concludes.\n\u201cIt certainly feels different this year,\u201d Waite said as she prepares for this week\u2019s Class 1A Lena-Winslow Sectional. \u201cI do kind of feel like the one everybody\u2019s going after, even as we get to the end.\u201d\nWaite took second in both the 400- and 200-meter runs at state last year, and she also took home a sixth in the 100 dash. However, it was Rockford Lutheran\u2019s Courtney Sockwell, who won the 100 and 200 at back-to-back state meets, that was her biggest adversary, and Sockwell is now a freshman at Northern Illinois University.\n\u201cThat did kind of open the door for me a little bit,\u201d Waite said. \u201cBut there are still a lot of fast girls in the state.\u201d\nSo far this year, she\u2019s stacking up nicely. It will all come down to Friday\u2019s sectional, where the top two finishers and those who eclipse the state standard time or distance advance to next week\u2019s state meet in Charleston.\nWaite\u2019s 26.05 is the sixth fastest 1A time in the state in the 200; her 12.66 is the eighth fastest time in the 100; and her 1:00.57 is the eighth fastest 400 time in 1A this year. She\u2019s also part of a 400-relay squad that has been clocked at 51.07, the fourth-fastest time in the state this season.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to be fun to see what we can do,\u201d Waite said of the relay crew. \u201cI\u2019m really excited for this postseason \u2014 really excited.\u201d\nOne of her toughest opponents will be hometown Le-Win\u2019s Carmen DeVries, another senior who will be looking for a strong finish. DeVries has a 1:01.68 in the 400, but she beat Waite at last week\u2019s NUIC meet, and they will go head-to-head once again on Friday. DeVries also has a 35-foot-4 in the triple jump this season, which is sixth best in all of 1A.\nThe Class 2A Woodstock North Sectional will include local teams from Belvidere, Byron, Freeport, North Boone, Boylan and Stillman Valley, also shooting for state bids on Friday.\nDeKalb\u2019s 3A Sectional, set for Thursday, will be highlighted by a powerful Belvidere North squad coming off a dominant performance at last week\u2019s NIC-10 meet. The Blue Thunder finished off the conference meet with 209 points, setting an all-time NIC-10 meet record and winning 14 of the 18 events.\nNorth is led by sprinter Grace Bundschuh, who won four events at the conference meet, including the 100 and 200, titles she retained after winning them her sophomore season, but not last year.",

        "raw_content": "Sonia as a young mother, with her daughter Bella\nWWII partisan Sonia Orbuch of Marin dies at 93\nBy Maya Mirsky | October 8, 2018\nSonia Orbuch of Corte Madera knew you had to stand up to hatred, both early and often. As a teen during World War II, she was a Jewish partisan in the forests of Poland, and in her 70s and beyond, she helped inspire young people to push back against intolerance. Orbuch passed away Sept. 30 at 93.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t just anti-Semitism,\u201d her son, Paul Orbuch, said. \u201cIt was any injustice.\u201d\nOrbuch was born Sarah Shainwald in Luboml, Poland. She grew up with doting parents and two brothers in a happy Orthodox home that her son said she described as \u201csheltered.\u201d\nBut that ended after the Nazis invaded Poland in 1939 and her family fled, first to a nearby ghetto, then into hiding and finally to the forests, where Russian partisans took them in.\nAt 17, Orbuch became a partisan herself, working as a guard and a field nurse, tending to wounded fighters who went on dangerous missions to harass and sabotage German soldiers and their Ukrainian collaborators.\nBoth of her brothers were killed, and altogether she lost some 60 family members in the Holocaust. In 1944, Sonia and her parents left the partisans to avoid joining the Red Army, but her mother soon died from typhus.\nBut Sonia kept going. That was characteristic of her, according to her son.\n\u201cOver the years, the world tested her, and she was very strong internally,\u201d Orbuch said.\nThat included her post-war life. For example, Orbuch took care of her husband, Isaak Orbuch, for nearly four decades after he was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s disease at age 45 (he died at 83). They met in a displaced persons camp and then moved to the United States.\n\u201cShe was incredibly loyal, and when the chips were down, she was someone you could always count on to be level-headed,\u201d her son said.\nSonia Orbuch speaking to students at Brandeis Marin about her years as a partisan\nIt was in 2001 that another new chapter of her life began, when she gave a public talk at Congregation Rodef Sholom in San Rafael on her experiences as a partisan \u2014 a member of a resistance group that worked to sabotage the Nazis.\n\u201cThat was like a breaking of a dam for her to speak publicly,\u201d Paul Orbuch said.\nIn 2009, she published a memoir with historian Fred Rosenbaum, \u201cHere, There Are No Sarahs.\u201d The title alludes to the way her partisan commander in the forest changed her name to one that was less Jewish.\n\u201cSo much really stands out about her,\u201d Rosenbaum said. \u201cOne thing is the selflessness \u2014 her devotion to others, whether it was her family members or the partisans, her comrades in arms.\u201d\nBut Rosenbaum also praised her resourcefulness. \u201cThere was a kind of boldness, an audacity about her,\u201d he said.\nOrbuch also participated, along with her son and entrepreneur-filmmaker Mitch Braff, in the establishment of the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation, an 18-year-old S.F.-based nonprofit that provides educational materials about partisan history.\n\u201cShe felt very empowered about all this, that this was happening,\u201d Paul Orbuch said.\nAnd she spoke to student groups constantly, answering anything they wanted to ask \u2014 from if there was romance amongst the partisans in the forest to whether she had ever questioned her faith. Always, she encouraged them to take a stand and find their inner strength to fight for what was right.\n\u201cShe lost so many things, but she had to keep going,\u201d her son said. \u201cShe kept her head high.\u201d\nSonia is survived by her son and daughter-in law, Paul Orbuch and Lisa King; her daughter and son-in-law, Bella and Dan Whelan; her granddaughter, Eva Orbuch; and her step-granddaughter, Fraya King.

        "raw_content": "Gayle Donsky, director of \"Faces of Genocide\"\nNew short film focuses on genocide, and how to stop it\nGayle Donsky\u2019s long tenure as someone attempting to educate the world about genocide had a simple beginning, at a Jewish Community Relations Council meeting in Marin 15 years ago, when activist Gerri Miller stood up to speak.\n\u201cShe held up the J., and the front of the J. was about the genocide in Darfur,\u201d Donsky said. \u201cAnd she said, \u2018How can we, as Jews, not do something about this?\u2019 That was the beginning.\u201d\nNow Donsky is premiering the short documentary she produced and financed, \u201cFaces of Genocide,\u201d on Nov. 11 at Fort Mason in San Francisco. In it, she attempts to answer some weighty questions about why genocide happens again and again, and how the world can come together to stop it.\n\u201cI\u2019m hoping that this film will be an educational tool in the United States and around the world,\u201d she said.\nThe 32-minute film was directed by Paul Mariano and Kurt Norton, and it\u2019s narrated by veteran actor Peter Coyote, a New York-born Jew who has lived in the Bay Area for some 50 years. Donsky is credited as one of the film\u2019s three writers.\nThe film incorporates footage of interviews with genocide survivors that Donsky used in a previous short video she made. It\u2019s a group that includes Helen Farkas, a Burlingame resident and Auschwitz survivor who passed away at 97 earlier this year and who spent more than four decades serving as a living witness to the traumas of the Holocaust by speaking to Bay Area high school students.\nChivy Sok, Cambodian genocide survivor\nThe premiere will be followed by a panel that includes two of the genocide survivors profiled in the film, Chivy Sok of Cambodia and Ramajana Hidic Demirovic of Bosnia. They\u2019ll be joined by Beth Van Schaack, a visiting professor of human rights at Stanford University who, until recently, had a high-level job in the State Department\u2019s Office of Global Criminal Justice, working on issues of mass atrocities, including war crimes and genocide. The panel will be moderated by C. Dixon Osburn, head of S.F.-based human rights organization Center for Justice and Accountability.\nDonsky also has the backing of a number of organizations that have agreed to spread the word about her film, including the American Jewish Committee, American Jewish World Service, the S.F.-based JCRC and the JFCS Holocaust Center, which is run under the auspices of Jewish Family and Children\u2019s Services.\nAfter that fateful day in 2003 when the J. cover was hoisted as a rallying cry, Donsky, a Mill Valley resident and former psychotherapist, has spent many years working to educate the world about Darfur. So has Miller, a retired teacher and longtime activist and Belvedere resident. In fact, in 2008, the two women shared a big JCRC honor with Martina Knee, winning the Tom Lantos Memorial Humanitarian Award for their work on Darfur.\nYet the failure of the international \u201cSave Darfur\u201d movement to actually stop the killing has been difficult for Donsky to comprehend.\n\u201cIt boggled my mind that after everything was done \u2014 unprecedented movement \u2014 it didn\u2019t stop the genocide,\u201d she said.\nAs the years went on, Donsky just couldn\u2019t let it lie.\n\u201cI was so troubled by: What was the problem? Why did we not succeed?\u201d\nSo she pursued that question in making the film. \u201cFaces of Genocide\u201d probes why atrocities happen by examining the ubiquity of genocide through the lens of recent calamities in Bosnia, Darfur, Cambodia and other places. Donsky doesn\u2019t pretend to have the answers, but she thinks progress can be made and looks to the possibility of better and more effective international institutions to make a difference.\nBut no matter what progress is made, Donsky says she\u2019ll never forget what she\u2019s learned about genocide, and hopes her film can be a powerful teaching tool for others.\n\u201cI grew up knowing about the Holocaust,\u201d she said. \u201cI think for most Jews, it just sears in our memory that something like this could happen.\u201d\n\u201cFaces of Genocide.\u201d 4:30-7 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 11 at Cowell Theater, Fort Mason Center, 2 Marina Blvd., S.F.

        "raw_content": "Creating a Campus-Wide Culture of Good Writing at Kent State Geauga | Kent State Geauga | Kent State University\nCreating a Campus-Wide Culture of Good Writing at Kent State Geauga\nJohn Metz is a man on a mission. He wants to shift paradigms, elevate expectations and metaphorically lift all boats by creating a campus-wide culture of good writing. He envisions an academic atmosphere where every instructor in every department expects and supports excellent writing skills so students learn to communicate effectively, succinctly and meaningfully in every aspect of daily life. To achieve that, instructors should expect students to dig deep, embrace complexity and explore invention.\n\u201cIn today\u2019s world, people don\u2019t just need to be able to convey what they think or know (or what they think they know), but they need to be able to explore more deeply into the complexity of ideas,\u201d Metz explains.\nHaving taught college writing for 35 years, Metz is a member of the English department at Kent State University at Geauga and the Regional Academic Center. He has co-written several editions of two college-level writing textbooks, The Composition of Everyday Life and Inventing Arguments. He has also helped to establish The Kent State Geauga and Regional Academic Center Writing Center, which supports any student needing help at any stage in the writing process in any subject. He presented \u201cCreating a Culture of Good Writing\u201d to faculty at their annual meeting to kick off this academic year.\nMetz asserts, \u201cMost students can write better than they do, but because writing well is hard work and takes time, students analyze the rhetorical situation, including the audience\u2019s (the professor\u2019s) expectations, and then they decide how well they need to write and how much time they need to spend writing. If professors don\u2019t expect and value good writing, many students will make the strategic decision to not write well.\u201d\nIn his convocation presentation, Metz framed his objective this way: \u201cAt a small campus like Kent State Geauga, we talk about what makes our campus unique. We ask: what is special about it, and why should students choose to attend our campus? One good reason to attend a small campus like ours can be that we have created and maintain a culture of good writing, which would be an important educational quality of our campus. Of course, to claim this, we have to create it, and then maintain it\u2026 We want [students] to not just write well for a grade because writing is part of the grade. Instead, we want good writing to be an attitude and behavior that is expected. It\u2019s part of the culture.\u201d\nThis argument illustrates Metz\u2019s approach to writing. He calls himself a rhetorical pedagog \u2014someone who teaches and studies rhetoric. He explains, \u201cThis is the way you communicate an idea; it\u2019s the way you persuade people to think and act differently (and the way they persuade you); and it\u2019s the way you, inside your own head, think things through and come to think what you do about things. So, in teaching writing classes, I see myself as teaching rhetoric.\u201d\nIf professors show students that they value and expect good writing, a campus can create a culture of good writing. Standard expectations in every class should be for students to write complete, well-crafted sentences; to write concisely, eliminating all unnecessary words; to develop ideas by making and supporting claims, and to edit and proofread their own work, checking for complete sentences, correct spelling and punctuation.\nBut it\u2019s not all about mechanics. At the heart of Metz\u2019 approach is the concept of invention: exploring, discovering, and developing ideas. \u201cIt is complicating your thinking; it is exploring into the complexity of an idea\u201d in order to discover or create even more ideas\u2026 \u201cLanguage is where ideas come from; writing/language is how you ask questions and invent; and it\u2019s how you take notes, plan, organize, reflect, and so on.\u201d\nInvention then is a life-giving process. Metz is convinced that effective communication is a vibrant process that can unlock fuller potential in every student. Rhetoric is the force behind that process. Metz says it is vital to every college major, every career/job, and all aspects of life.\n\u201cMy main goals have been to help students become more independent and self-sufficient learners, to help students think more critically, and to help students develop rhetorical and intellectual agility,\u201d Metz concludes. \u201cProfessors in non-writing classes can help students develop as writers by requiring them, encouraging them, and reminding them to write well.\u201d\nIt\u2019s all part of creating a culture of good writing.",

Brandon Hammers, head of the state police Aircraft Support Branch, said in the release.\nKentucky State Police now has three planes and six helicopters.",

An agreement was reached earlier this week to deliver School Safety Orientation for New Employees, an Online Course for new and existing staff to 194 school districts in BC.\nERAC\u2019s Janet Gregory explained, \u201cLambda\u2019s school safety course was a great fit based on Worksafe BC\u2019s requirement that every new employee of a school district complete a course of this nature prior to commencing their employment with the school district.\u201d\n\u201cLambda Solutions has created an effective and concise method of delivering this course to employees. The web-hosted online course is divided into a number of modules which employees can complete at their own pace. Their progress is recorded and submitted to the employer once the employee has completed the course.\u201d\n\u201cWe are extremely excited to form an alliance with ERAC, who will now be able to provide our excellent Safety Orientation course to it\u2019s extensive network of members in a cooperative buying program, explained Jonathan Rand Lambda\u2019s Director of Sales and Marketing.\u201d\nSchool Districts in BC who would like to participate in the Program can contact ERAC or Lambda Solutions for details.\nAbout ERAC\nERAC is a consortium of BC public school districts and independent schools that cooperate on software, textbook, video and learning resource evaluations and purchases. The goal of ERAC is to reduce the amount of time school and school district staff spend evaluating, selecting, negotiating and purchasing software, textbooks, videos and learning resources. The company is operated under the umbrella of the Vancouver School Board and is funded by The Ministry of Education and independent schools, which pay an annual fee to remain members of ERAC. For more information visit, www.bcerac.ca.\nLambda Solutions provides a wide range of e-Learning services, including online course creation as well as Moodle (LMS) provisioning, support and training. Lambda Solutions has worked with a variety of Corporations, Government Organizations and Educational Institutions throughout North America, including PMC-Sierra, Kumon, Rogers, Vancity, BC Hydro, UBC, SFU and the governments of Alberta and British Columbia. The company was founded in 2002 and is based out of Vancouver, Canada.",

        "title": "To keep drones out of high-risk areas, companies try hijacking them and shooting them down - Los Angeles Times",
        "raw_content": "To keep drones out of high-risk areas, companies try hijacking them and shooting them down\nDuring a counterdrone test, Randy Villahermosa, left, and Esteban Valles show how Aerospace Corp. uses its sophisticated technology to locate a drone controller. (The Aerospace Corporation)\nA public awareness campaign last year did little to deter the growing number of rogue drones flying near wildfires and forcing firefighters to ground their own aircraft.\nSo this year, the Department of the Interior tried something a little more direct.\nThe agency gave real-time access to data on all active wildfires to two airspace mapping companies as part of a pilot program.\nOne of those firms, Santa Monica-based AirMap, worked with drone manufacturer DJI, which created \"geofences\" around wildfires. When drones hit the virtual boundary, the geofencing software overrides the flight controller and forces them to hover in place. Any drone deployed inside the barrier won't be able to lift off.\n\"We really want to have this new community of pilots be as responsible as the manned aircraft pilots that came before them,\" said Mark Bathrick, director of the office of aviation services at the Department of the Interior.\nAs private drone use has soared, so has concern about keeping the remote-controlled aircraft away from sensitive and high-risk areas such as airports, nuclear power plants and prisons.\nThose concerns are heightened by high-profile incidents such as the near collision in March of a drone and a Lufthansa jet approaching Los Angeles International Airport. In 2013 a drone crash landed in front of German Chancellor Angela Merkel at a campaign event, and a quadcopter crashed on the White House lawn in 2015.\nDefense giants Boeing Co. and Lockheed Martin Corp., as well as a handful of start-ups, have jumped into the fray, developing technology ranging from detection systems to more disruptive solutions such as software that forces unauthorized drones to go home or land safely and laser cannons that shoot unwanted drones out of the sky.\nThe technology is of interest to commercial users as well as the government. The Department of Defense hosts an annual counterdrone demonstration called Black Dart in which the military, its allies and industry partners can assess current technology and techniques.\nEarlier this year, the Federal Aviation Administration tested FBI drone-detection technology at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York and Atlantic City International Airport in New Jersey for a few weeks.\nLast year, Boeing unveiled its compact laser weapons system, which ignites targeted drones. At a demonstration in California, Boeing said it took only about 15 seconds for its 2-kilowatt laser to disable the drone.\nThough the counterdrone industry is still nascent, the global market \u2014 including both civilian and military uses \u2014 could be worth at least several hundreds of millions of dollars, said Michael Blades, senior industry analyst for aerospace and defense at research and consulting firm Frost & Sullivan.\n\"With all the talk of how many drones are going to be flying around and, at least on the commercial side, how much privacy is going to be an issue, I think these companies saw an opportunity,\" he said.\nMuch will depend on how well the technology works. It's not easy to devise a system that tracks and identifies tiny drones, and stops unauthorized ones without knocking out everything \u2014 or creating a safety hazard.\n\"This rapid proliferation of start-ups, of large companies all proposing systems that deal with the issue in different ways, suggests to me that there isn't one single unifying solution for how to bring drones out of the sky,\" said Arthur Holland Michel, co-director of the Center for the Study of the Drone at Bard College in New York. \"Every single step of the process is challenging.\"\nThat starts with identifying whether drones are friendly or rogue.\nAutonomous drone-detection systems need to be sophisticated enough to distinguish between slow-moving drones and birds, or even the signals emitted from drones compared with those emitted by cellphones.\nDetection systems will likely need to integrate a number of sensors such as acoustics, cameras, radio frequency or even radar to create \"multilayer capability,\" Blades said.\nOther companies and organizations are looking into the interdiction, or disruptive, aspect of how to safely deal with a drone threat once it is identified.\nAt Aerospace Corp. in El Segundo, researchers are investigating how to isolate the link between a specific drone and its controller that could lead to a safe takeover \u2014 rather than blindly \"jamming,\" or interrupting, all of the authorized frequencies in that range to cause confusion and force a potentially unpredictable landing. It is illegal for nongovernment entities to operate these kinds of jammers.\nThat sounds easier than it is. Drones change their frequency band tens of times a second to ensure an uninterrupted communications link, said Randy Villahermosa, principal director of research and program development at Aerospace Corp. But by using software-defined radios and integrating the team's coding knowledge, the researchers have been able to successfully take over a drone's controls in several tests, said Esteban Valles, associate director of digital communication in the implementation department at Aerospace Corp.\nThe researchers have also worked on pinpointing the position of a rogue drone's controller, allowing law enforcement to find the pilot.\nThere have been more than 300 so-called drone incidents in California between April 2014 and Jan. 31, 2016, according to an analysis of FAA data by U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein's office. More than half of these incidents involved a drone that flew within five miles of an airport.\nIn one case from early January, a Cessna agricultural aircraft reported that it possibly hit a drone about 1,400 feet in the air near Modesto, according to the analysis. No damage was reported to the aircraft.\nAerospace Corp. does not sell its products commercially but is trying to better understand how drone communications work so it can advise customers on their own technology solutions, Villahermosa said.\nDrone maker DJI introduced its GPS-based geofence system about three years ago. It prevents \"inadvertent\" drone operations in sensitive areas, such as airports or in Washington, D.C.\nSince drones rely on their GPS receivers to determine where they are, DJI preprograms certain locations into the geofencing system. If a drone gets close to one of these locations, operators first receive a warning, said Brendan Schulman, vice president of policy and legal affairs at DJI. If they continue to fly their drone, they will be stopped by the geofence. The distance around these sensitive locations can vary.\nA more recent version includes locations with a temporary flight restriction, such as sporting events.\nDJI, which analysts estimate sells up to 70% of all consumer and professional drones, has included the option of overriding the geofence for wildfires, allowing a \"verified\" user to input credit card information or a mobile phone number to give firefighting or other authorized personnel the ability to keep using drones for legitimate efforts.\n\"It's really a balance between safety and innovation,\" Schulman said. \"We don't want to just shut down the technology in places it can be useful.\"\nFor more business news, follow me @smasunaga\nSnapchat said to be eyeing $25-billion IPO in early 2017\nStratolaunch to use Orbital ATK rockets to launch satellites from its giant aircraft\nTheranos seeks turnaround with a portable blood-testing device, but skepticism abounds\n7:54 a.m.: This article was updated to clarify the market share that DJI controls.",

        "raw_content": "23andMe sells $300-million stake to GlaxoSmithKline and will help develop drugs\nBy David Pierson and James Paton\n23andMe says it can help drugmakers identify patients for clinical trials more efficiently. (Yichuan Cao / TNS)\nWith over 5 million customers, genetic testing firm 23andMe sits on a trove of human data it believes can help drugmakers develop treatments more efficiently in an industry where 90% of medicines on trial never reach market.\nThe Silicon Valley startup now has a major partner and investment to tap that potential: It announced Wednesday that it sold a $300-million stake to British pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline Plc.\nThe two companies agreed to a four-year deal to develop new drugs and more quickly identify patients for clinical studies through 23andMe\u2019s customers, 80% of whom agreed to share their personal information for research.\n\u201cBy working with GSK, we believe we will accelerate the development of breakthroughs. Our genetic research \u2014 powered by millions of customers who have agreed to contribute \u2014 combined with GSK\u2019s expertise in drug discovery and development, gives us the best chance for success,\u201d 23andMe Chief Executive Anne Wojcicki said in a blog post.\n23andMe is best known for its saliva test to determine a person\u2019s ancestry and potential health risks. The company is one of the bigger names in the quickly growing field of consumer genetic testing that has resulted in unusual discoveries such as the identity of the Golden State Killer suspect.\nLast year, the Food and Drug Administration deemed the company\u2019s tests accurate enough to sell reports that show customers whether they have a greater genetic risk of developing certain diseases and conditions. The FDA had previously warned 23andMe about sending health reports because it lacked the agency\u2019s approval.\nFounded in 2006, the company has garnered investment from major venture firms including Sequoia Capital and Google Ventures. The company declined to disclose its valuation.\nOne of the first things 23andMe plans to do with Glaxo is recruit patients to help the British company test its new treatment for Parkinson\u2019s disease. The treatment, which is in preclinical development, inhibits a gene called LRRK2 that\u2019s a contributor to the illness. 23andMe customers with defined LRRK2 mutations will be asked to participate in the trial.\nGlaxo is trying to catch up with its rivals when it comes to research. Last year, it ranked No. 11 among 13 big pharma companies in a Bloomberg Intelligence analysis measuring research-and-development returns, and investors have expressed concern about its ability to boost productivity while also funding its dividend.\nBy buying a stake in 23andMe, Glaxo is addressing \u201ca major issue for the pharma industry, which is the fact that there\u2019s this incredibly low probability for success\u201d among potential drugs, CEO Emma Walmsley told reporters. The deal could be \u201ctransformational\u201d in making the process more efficient, she said.\nAs costs of finding and testing drugs increase and successes become harder to achieve, more drugmakers are streamlining their research and development. Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan has set a course to cut the failure rate for new products and boost efficiency with projects such as an operations center to predict enrollment and evaluate costs of clinical trials in real time.\nAstraZeneca has said that overhauling its research strategy improved productivity fourfold from 2012 through 2016. And like Glaxo, Roche Holding has tapped into the promise that the Human Genome Project made possible 15 years ago with the first human DNA sequence: Roche bought Foundation Medicine and its technology for testing cancers to find ways to treat them.\nGlaxo also announced a restructuring program that will cost about $2.2 billion over a period that ends in 2021. It\u2019s expected to deliver annual savings of about $530 million during that time \u2014 money that will be reinvested in R&D and used for commercial support of new products.\nThe agreement with 23andMe \u201ccould substantially change the cost it takes to develop drugs, or put differently, we could develop twice as many drugs for the same amount of money,\u201d said Glaxo\u2019s chief science officer, Hal Barron. \u201cWe see it as critical to our future strategy.\u201d\nThe two companies also could work together on programs 23andMe has initiated in areas including immunology, cancer, heart disease, skin disorders and liver disease, according to Richard Scheller, who joined the startup in 2015 as chief science officer. 23andMe announced its ambitions to translate that information into new drugs three years ago.\nA key dilemma for the pharmaceutical industry is that only 1 in 10 of the treatments that start in early-stage testing make it all the way to patients, according to Barron. Average costs to bring a new medicine to market surged to almost $2 billion in 2017, while big pharma companies have seen returns on R&D spending plunge, Deloitte estimates.\n\u201cThe idea of pursuing genetically validated targets provides us with an opportunity to have a significantly higher probability of success,\u201d Barron said. \u201cIt also helps with pace. We\u2019ll be able to do programs faster. So it will help with two or three of the biggest challenges facing our industry.\u201d\nPaton writes for Bloomberg News.",

        "title": "The Evolution of Fashion in the 1900s | LCCA",
        "raw_content": "The Evolution of Fashion: 1900s\nHow to Become a Fashion Designer -\nFashion can change rapidly in a short space of time; here is a brief timeline, documenting the evolution of fashion during the 1900s.\nFashion 1900s\nDuring the Edwardian era, it was common for women to wear boned corsets, squeezing waist sizes down to 20 inches or less. Corsets were designed to push the upper body forward while pushing the hips back, forcing the body into an s-shape. However, this s-shape decreased as the years passed, and by the end of the era, dresses were designed to create an empire line (fitted just below the bust).\nBy 1905, cars were also growing in popularity, leading to an increase in demand for fashionable car coats, also known as manteaux automobiles. This was particularly the case in the colder months of autumn and winter, when it was essential to wrap up and keep out the cold.\nThe early 1910s saw the introduction of Orientalism, which was heavily influenced by the bright colours of the Far East. With higher waistbands out of fashion, the column shape rose in popularity.\nThe start of World War I in 1914 played a big part in the shift of the typical silhouette, and womenswear became more practical as women prepared to enter work. Shirtwaists were introduced, as were tailored suits. The war also affected colour schemes; the sombre mood, as well as an increase in funerals and visits to the injured, meant that colours were kept simple and dark.\nWith World War I over, some fabrics once considered luxurious became more affordable and people began making fashionable garments in their own homes. During the 1920s, handmade clothes were still extremely common, and women often experimented with different \u2013 some would say daring \u2013 new styles.\nFlapper dresses were one of the most popular garments of the decade; straight cut and loose fitting, the flapper dress left arms bare. Waistlines were generally dropped to the hips, with hemlines just below the knee by 1927. Stockings were often worn underneath, held up by garters.\nLong strings of pearls and fur collars are among popular accessories of the decade, as were T-bar shoes.\nInfluenced by Hollywood movies, 1930s fashion was sleek and sophisticated. Deep colours such as maroon and plum were widely worn, as were pastel colours and geometric patterns. Hemlines of daywear skirts sat around mid-calf length, and the most common necklines were crossover, v-neck and scallop edge, many with lace accents.\nEvening dresses were longer and more elegant than day dresses, reaching either ankle or floor-length. Designs were usually backless, and frequently decorated with flowers or bows on the shoulder or waistline. Towards the end of the decade, silk dresses became more popular.\nBrimmed hats wore often worn outside of the house (titled at an angle), as were gloves which were synchronised with shoes and handbags. Elbow length gloves were often worn with evening gowns.\nWorld War II brought with it a rationing on fabric, and typical dress length rose from mid-calf to knee high. Necklines varied from square and sweetheart to keyhole and cross front, and day dresses showed very little skin. Evening dresses were a little more risqu\u00e9, often with spaghetti straps, showing shoulders and chest.\nFitted shoulder pads became very popular in the 40s, as women\u2019s fashion began to take more of a military style. Many dresses, jackets and blouses came with shoulder pads extending further than the shoulders themselves.\nAfter the war ended in 1945, fabric became more readily available and many women embraced colourful, patterned fabrics.\nWith rations well and truly over, women\u2019s fashion became more luxurious; skirts had pleats and gatherings, and bold colours and patterns remained popular. Commonly used materials included nylon, rayon, wool and leather.\nGlamour became an important part of women\u2019s fashion \u2013 empire dresses were worn day and night, and petticoats were often worn under dresses and skirts, creating more shapely figures while also providing the practicality of an extra layer for warmth.\nStilettos and beehive hair styles were used to complete the most stylish looks of this decade, making the 1950s one of the most glamorous periods of the 1900s.\nFashion designer Many Quant influenced the rise of miniskirts during the 1960s. In 1961, hemlines typically sat just above the knee, climbing higher in the following years; by 1966 some mini hems reached the upper thigh, and the end of the decade even saw the introduction of the micro-mini. Stockings were replaced by coloured tights for practicality.\nMary Quant and her miniskirts were closely associated with mod fashion, which also covered bold patterns and go-go boots. Such trends always started in London, and were heavily represented in Carnaby Street and the surrounding areas.\nOther iconic pieces from this decade include buckled shoes, pantyhose, and the pillbox hat which grew in popularity after Jackie Kennedy made them her signature.\nThe 70s is often described as a fun era for fashion. Some of the best elements of 60\u2019s fashion made it into the 70s, only more flamboyant than the previous decade. Seventies style has been described as a blend of mod and hippie. Flares and bells bottoms were staple trends (especially in the first half of this decade), as were platforms.\nMaxi dresses and wrap dresses brought a more bohemian style to the 70s, and it was often hard to tell which dresses were designed for daywear and which were designed for evening wear. Jumpsuits offered a fashionable alternative to dresses.\nOther popular trends of the decade included cowl neck sweaters and chevron prints.\nA fitness phase which took over in the 1970s carried over into the early 1980s, with a heavy focus on aerobics. Leotards, tights and velour tracksuits were incredibly popular, as were legwarmers and sweatbands worn around the forehead.\nThe early to mid-1980s also brought with it the New Romantic age, influenced by the punk scene. The style incorporated bold eyeliner, spiked or backcombed hair, as well as historically influenced clothing.\nOther trends of this decade included trench coats, turtle neck jumpers, embroidered jeans and faux fur.\nThe beginning of the 90s brought with it a style heavily influenced by the grunge scene. Denim jackets, ripped jeans and Dr Martens were three of the top trends during the first half of the decade, led by fashion icons such as Courtney Love and Winona Ryder.\nRave culture rose in popularity towards the end of the 90s, with neon colours and smiley faces heavily featured in any wannabe-raver\u2019s wardrobe. Baseball caps also became a must-wear, with the peaks often bent into a tight curve, or turned towards the back.\nOther trends that made an appearance during the 90s included the crop top, dungarees, Capri pants and chokers.\nIf you are interested in a career in fashion, a degree in Fashion Design or HND in Fashion and Textiles could be your first step.",

        "raw_content": "Epilepsy - Medical specialists\nHere you will find medical experts in clinics and medical practices in the medical field Epilepsy. All listed physicians are specialists in their field and have been carefully selected for you according to strict guidelines.\nIn which specialist field is an epilepsy specialist active?\nWhich illnesses does an epilepsy specialist treat?\nWhat treatment methods are used by an epilepsy specialist?\nWhat additional qualifications are required by an epilepsy specialist?\nTop-cities in Epilepsy Select cityBerlinBernBonnDuisburgEssenHamburgHannoverLinzLucerneMunichSt. GallenStuttgartViennaWinterthurZurich\nEpilepsy - Further information\nThe first point of contact for many who experience a seizure will be a primary care doctor, but if epilepsy is suspected, there will probably be a referral on to a neurologist, who specialises in a range of brain disorders. A number of neurologists who have had additional training in epilepsy, and perhaps work mainly within that specific field, are sometimes described as epileptologists.\nIn more complex cases, where the disease is harder to control or where there is a need for additional counselling in respect of pregnancy or childbirth, it may be necessary to consult with specialists from associated fields in connection with diagnosis, testing and treatment. These specialist disciplines may include:\nsleep specialists from pulmonary medicine\nIn addition, it is common for patients to be assigned a specialist epilepsy nurse. A specialist nurse can act as a link between the patient and other professionals, may also have a role to play in your treatment, and will certainly offer their support to help you manage your epilepsy.\nYour primary care doctor may also be involved in the ongoing management of your epilepsy. They may handle practical tasks, such as prescribing drug treatments, and will be available to answer any questions or concerns that may arise about any aspect of your treatment.\nAn epilepsy specialist will treat patients with epilepsy, sometimes with the help of a multidisciplinary team. Rather than a single condition, epilepsy is a group of neurological disorders that characteristically produce epileptic seizures that are convulsive in nature. These episodes, which can vary considerably in intensity, may sometimes involve extended bouts of uncontrolled shaking. There is a likelihood that these symptoms, which can cause physical injuries and even broken bones, will recur.\nThough it is generally believed that epilepsy cannot be cured, most epileptic conditions can be satisfactorily managed with medication. Where epileptic seizures cannot be successfully controlled via prescription drugs, surgery is then the recommended option.\nSome common surgical interventions are as follows:\nThe best outcomes have been achieved when it has been possible to identify and remove the portion of the brain where epilepsy has been detected.\nA further surgical strategy involves disconnecting certain neural pathways to stop a \u2018chain reaction\u2019, which would otherwise allow a seizure to spread to other areas of the brain.\nThe vagus nerve stimulation technique implants a device that electronically stimulates the vagus nerve \u2013 the nerve that controls unconscious body procedures. This can often help to reduce seizures.\nAn RNS (responsive neurostimulation) device uses a similar process. Surgically installed below the scalp, this neurostimulator device is electrically wired to the parts of the brain that have been identified as the source of epileptic seizures. If abnormal electrical activity is detected, the RNS device responds with targeted electrical pulses to normalise brain function by interrupting the seizure cycle before it gets under way.\nMedication is used to manage most epilepsy by reducing the severity and frequency of symptoms, or even preventing them completely. This usually takes one of the following forms:\na range of anti-seizure drugs\nanticonvulsant drugs (taken alone or in combination) to manage severe cases that are unresponsive to anti-seizure medication\nOther treatment approaches include:\nstress reduction to minimise seizure activity, using yoga, biofeedback and relaxation therapies in combination with medication\na ketogenic diet (high-fat, low protein and carbohydrates), which has been found to reduce seizures in children, with some remaining seizure-free after the treatment finishes\nThose who are at risk of epileptic seizures are usually encouraged to wear some form of \u2018MedicAlert\u2019 bracelet. This will help those offering first-response medical assistance to quickly recognise that an epileptic episode is taking place and respond with appropriate emergency treatments.\nAn epilepsy specialist will have initially trained in the medical discipline of neurology. However, since 2010, the ABPN (the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology) has offered a new subspecialty certification relating to epilepsy. This means that epilepsy is now defined as a medical sub-category of neurology and child neurology. In addition, this qualification gives epilepsy specialists important official recognition of their training and experience in the treatment of epilepsy.\nTo become eligible for this accreditation, suitably qualified neurology candidates (or neurology with a special qualification in child neurology) are required to complete a two-year fellowship in epilepsy. To achieve certification, they must also provide evidence of the required level of epilepsy-focused practice experience, or alternatively, documented proof that they have successfully met the demands of a formal period of epilepsy-based training.",

        "raw_content": "Alcoholism Physical Symptoms\nAll medical experts agree that there are alcoholism physical symptoms that will appear over time. Generally speaking, the affects of alcoholism will increase the longer the person drinks. It can also be said that in many\ncases, the sooner the person stops drinking, the less severe the overall health issues will be for that person. This is one of the most important reasons why those with a problem need to get assistance as soon as possible.\nIt should also be noted that this condition is considered a progressive disease, and this can also be applied to the physical symptoms that may occur. What that means, for example, is if a person has sleeping disorders early on in his or her drinking, those same sleeping disorders may become much more pronounced as the amount of time drinking increases.\nEarly Alcoholism Physical Symptoms\nIt should be kept in mind that not all people with a drinking problem will experience the same set of signs as the next person. It is also important to understand that a person with a problem does not have to exhibit all of these signs in order to have a problem. The affects of alcoholism can be far reaching but they can also vary wildly.\nOne of the most common signs is also one of the most easily observable, and that is frequent periods of intoxication. There is no set number that represents \"too much\", but common sense should prevail. If a person is drinking daily or even every other day, then a problem is probably at hand.\nAnother of the alcoholism physical symptoms is black outs or periods of memory loss. Normally, only the person with the problem will have reliable access to this sign. Family and friends should understand that heavy drinkers are often less than truthful if asked about black outs.\nAlcoholism physical symptoms will often increase dramatically at some point in time. Many experts suggest that a person who experiences three of the following seven conditions is a person with a problem that needs resolution. These conditions usually set in once the person has developed a dependency issue with alcohol. Again, the affects of alcoholism can vary from person to person.\nChanges in Daily Behavior: This occurs when the person begins to neglect important life-issues such as work, family and personal hygiene.\nIncreased Use: This occurs when the person is drinking more and drinking for longer (in hours) than before.\nDecreased Self-Will: This occurs when the person wants to slow down or stop but is not able to do so. They often feel out of control.\nContinued Consumption: This occurs when the person continues to drink even though he or she knows that it will lead to problems. These problems might be with spouses, co-workers, employers, etc. This is one of the more devastating affects of alcoholism.\nIncreased Drinking Related Episodes: Persons with a problem will spend more time in activities related to drinking.\nOnset of Withdrawal Signs: Persons with a dependency problem will experience withdrawal signs if they do not have a drink within a particular period of time. The amount of time needed between drinks will vary with the person, but most will experience a sense of panic or anxiety, tremors in the hands, the feeling of nausea, and often will experience profuse sweating for no reason.\nIncreased Tolerance: This occurs when the person needs to have more consumption in order to get the same level of high that they once did.\nIf a person has two or more of the above, then professional help is advisable. While the affects of alcoholism are often hard to identify, the sooner professional guidance is offered, the better.\nMedical professionals and mental health professionals are often in the best position to diagnose alcoholism physical symptoms.\nMore alcoholism physical symptoms on our main alcoholism signs page",

        "title": "Causes of Alcoholism",
        "raw_content": "Physicians have been trying to understand the causes of alcoholism in order to better help people struggling with this addiction.\nWhat they\u2019ve discovered is that there is no one answer to the question of what causes alcoholism. However, on-going studies indicate that there are various factors that increase the chances of alcohol dependency. For example, simply drinking alcohol consistently can become one of the causes of alcoholism, but typically this combines with other factors that work differently in each individual.\nConsidering that humankind has been consuming alcohol for approximately 12,000 years in a wide variety of cultures, its no surprise that finding positive ways of coping with this disease is difficult and sometimes daunting. However, for those living with substance abuse, understanding what causes alcoholism may be the first step to recovery. Education and acceptance are half the battle. Let\u2019s look at some of the things that physicians recognize as causes or contributing factors to alcoholism:\nGender is one of the possible causes of alcoholism. Men seem more prone to dependence than women, but it takes more drinks weekly for addiction to manifest. A man who has 15 weekly drinks is moving into high-risk territory; 12 drinks a week is the level at which women show a higher tendency toward becoming addicted.\nResearch into what causes alcoholism confirms that the younger a person starts drinking, the higher their chances of dependency become. Like the other puzzle-pieces we\u2019re exploring this as only one part of a larger picture, but one well worth remembering when dealing with young people who over-indulge. By itself youthful drinking won\u2019t necessarily lead to addition. However, the social/peer pressures of young drinking shouldn\u2019t be overlooked.\nGenetic factors play a significant role in alcoholism. In fact it\u2019s estimated that genetics accounts for at least fifty percent of the total risk for alcoholism. To illustrate: if your family members have a high tolerance for alcohol that often means you do too. This tolerance leads to over indulgence, and in turn can become one of the causes of alcoholism. The complexity of this disease, however, reveals that Genes alone cannot be blamed for the struggle. Other issues like environment, personal physiology, etc. are also part of what causes alcoholism.\nAlcohol changes brain chemistry. That means when a person decreases or ceases alcohol consumption, the brain may \u201ccrave\u201d more to avoid stress and increase the sense of peace or pleasure it gets from the alcohol. This makes it more difficult to stop drinking, and certainly contributes to alcoholism.\nRelationship and Social Changes\nThe history of alcohol is intimately tied to the history of social interaction. Drinking has been part of nearly every moment that makes us \u201chuman\u201d \u2013 so the question remains, what causes alcoholism in some people and not others? One answer to this question comes from our societal patterns; humans are creatures of habit. When someone stops drinking it alters friendships, family relationships, and habits that have typically developed over years. This change may leave the drinker feeling alone and misunderstood (which, in turn, can lead to drinking again). Partying friends may not be very comfortable with the new sober buddy, and family members who grew accustom to the \u201cfun\u201d personality could become enablers to a relapse.\nMedia & Mindfulness\nBeyond all this, it\u2019s very important to remember the role that TV, Radio, and the Newspaper have in causing alcoholism. There are hundreds of shows, articles, and advertisements that glorify social drinking as a way to improve relationships, climb the corporate ladder, and just have fun. In a culture steeped in media attentiveness, this makes the alcoholic\u2019s struggle to wellness all the more difficult.\nIf you\u2019re someone who finds they\u2019ve got a problem, or a friend/family member with a problem, step one is open communication. Look at all the factors that may be causes of alcoholism and talk about them without condemnation. You, your family member or friend does not need a lecture, they need to understand the problem and begin to come to a place of acceptance. There are numerous organizations that can help, and plenty of information on this site to begin that process. Remember the longest journeys begin with a step.\nMore than the causes of alcoholism on our alcoholism disease page",

        "raw_content": "Not to be repetitive \u2013 and most production people know this, but one of the most important aspect of videography is lighting. Lighting, lighting, lighting. It is important to have a solid understanding of the aspects of proper 3 point lighting. Understanding and utilizing this correct setup will allow for the most professional finished product possible. Whether you are shooting on video, film, or even photography, the concept works for all three.\nThree-Point Lighting: A big challenge for a camera operator is how to make a two-dimensional image appear as three-dimensional as possible when captured on videotape or film. This is achievable through the techniques of 3-point lighting. By placing separate light sources in three different positions, the photographer/videographer can illuminate the shot\u2019s subject however desired. This is accomplished by controlling the amount of shading and shadows produced by direct lighting. This mastery of the shadows is what provides the three-dimensional depth of any shot.\nThe 3-point lighting technique uses three separate lights for three purposes. These lights are called the key light, fill light and backlight.\nKey Light: This is your main light. It is usually the strongest light and will influence the look of the scene more than the other lights. You place this light at an approximate 45 degree angle away from a line running between your subject and the camera. The result is that one side of your subject is well lit and the other side has some intense shadows.\nFill Light: This acts as your secondary light and is placed on the opposite side of the key light, again at an approximate 45 degree angle from your subject/camera axis. The intensity of this light is generally quite a bit less than your key light, often times half as strong as your key. It is mainly used to fill the shadows created by the key light. The fill light is usually softer than the key light. You can accomplish this by flooding out the beam of the light and/or placing some form of diffusion material in front of light.\nBack Light: The backlight is placed behind the subject, thereby lighting them from the rear. This is the only light that does not provide direct lighting. Instead it acts to provide definition around the subject, as well as to highlight them. The intensity of this fixture is only slightly less than the key lights. The back light will help separate the subject from the background, giving you more of a three-dimensional look.\nYou will need all three lights to accomplish the technique fully, however the principles are important no matter how many lights you have available to use.\nFor example, if you have only one light, then it automatically becomes the key light. If you have two lights, then one is the key light and the other becomes the fill light or backlight. The missing fixtures can be substituted with the aid of a reflector or bounce board to help illuminate parts of the subject. This is done by reflecting the key lights intensity to other areas where needed.\nAgain, proper lighting is the main ingredient to getting that professional look. This technique \u2013 if done right, can help you create something very beautiful, even if you are shooting with a low end camcorder.\nTo download this article as a PDF > Tips on Proper 3 Point Lighting\n3 point lighting, back light, fill light, key light, production lighting, technique, three point lighing, videography lighting",

        "raw_content": "Jesse James in 1864\n\u201cJesse James (partly) turned to crime as a means of exacting revenge on all things Yankee\u201d\n\u2014 Time-Life Books\u2019 The Wild West\nWhen Jesse James was still alive, America already loved him, for, in him, there was adventure in an otherwise dull, slowly-turning-scientific age. Late in America\u2019s second century, the man rebelled against a society that he didn\u2019t like and became a folk hero. In the mid-1860\u2019s journalists, eager to entertain Easterners with tales of the Wild West, exaggerated and romanticized the gang\u2019s heists. Jesse James was touted as being the modern day Robin Hood because it was said that he robbed from the rich and was kind to the poor.\nAt the time, his exploits were relished by those who could do no more than fantasize about living such an adventurous life. This obviously remains true today, as thousands of people are intrigued by not only Jesse James, but by the many outlaws who carved out the western frontier.\nHowever, while Jesse was many things, including being a sometimes kind man, a dapper dresser, and a prankish charmer, he was also a cold-blooded murderer, robber, horse thief, and terrorist. He and his gang were very dangerous men.\nJesse James\u2019 parents, Robert Sallee James and Zerelda Elizabeth Cole James were originally from Stamping Ground, Kentucky where the two met at a revival meeting. Married on December 28, 1841, Robert James continued his schooling and graduated from Georgetown College. After Robert\u2019s graduation, the young family relocated to the Centerville area of Clay County, Missouri. Centerville would later be known as Kearney.\nWith the help of neighbors, Robert and Zerelda, \u201cZee\u201d, as she was more commonly known, built a log cabin in the wilderness and began to carve out a farm. Robert became the pastor of a small Baptist Church outside of Kearney. Reverend James was a well-liked and respected man in the community who helped found William Jewel College in Liberty, Missouri. Zee, who stood six feet tall, was known as a hard-working, strong-willed farm woman. Their first son, Alexander Franklin \u201cFrank\u201d James was born at the family farm on January 10, 1843. Three more children quickly followed. Robert James, Jr. was born at the farm on July 19, 1845, but died just 33 days later. Jesse Woodson James was born on September 5, 1847, and Susan Lavenia James was born on November 25, 1849.\nIn early 1850, the Reverend James was asked to serve as chaplain on a wagon train of local men headed west to California in search of gold. On April 12th he left the farm in Zee\u2019s care and headed west with the intent of preaching to the crowds of gold miners who had gathered there. The minister never made it back to Missouri.\nShortly after arriving in California on August 1, 1850, the Reverend contracted a fever, as a result of drinking contaminated water. On August 18, 1850, the minister died of cholera at a Placerville, California gold camp and was buried in an unmarked grave.\nYears later Jesse would go in search of his father\u2019s resting place but was unsuccessful. Zerelda inherited the farm which she continued to own until her own death years later. But for the moment she was a widow, left with three young children. Frank, the oldest one was seven years old when his father died.\nBenjamin Simms and Zerelda James Simms\nZerelda married a second time to a man named Benjamin Simms, a neighboring farmer on September 10, 1852. The marriage proved to be an unhappy one, mainly because of Simms\u2019 behavior towards the two boys. His lack of affection for them and his use of corporal punishment which Zerelda did not approve of, resulted in the failure of the marriage. Zee was a woman of strong opinions who fiercely guarded her sons against criticism. After a series of arguments between the couple, Zerelda started procedures for a divorce, an unusual move for the time. This didn\u2019t prove necessary since Simms was killed on January 2, 1854, in a horse accident.\nA third marriage to Dr. Archie Reuben Samuel took place in 1855. The physician was well-to-do, docile, and allowed his wife to make the important family decisions. When it came to the children, Zee made all the decisions. Dr. Samuels purchased additional adjoining property and the James\u2019 holdings grew. The family purchased slaves to help them in the running of the farm.\nIn his youth, Frank was said to be a taciturn, withdrawn Bible-reading boy. He developed an interest in his late father\u2019s sizeable library, particularly the works of William Shakespeare. Frank reportedly wanted to become a school teacher. Quite to the contrary, Jesse was described as generous, noble-hearted, and assertive, with a prankish charm. Dr. Samuel taught both boys horse-riding and shooting skills. Both boys worked on the farm through their teenage years, enjoying a normal family life.\nFrank James as a Young Man\nIn 1861, when Frank turned 18, any thoughts of pursuing a higher education came to an end when Missouri became rife with the conflict and violence of the Civil War. Missouri was torn in two directions \u2013 the majority of the state\u2019s settlers came from the south, yet her economy was linked directly to the north.\nThough Missouri voted against a secession from the Union, there were a significant number of people with Confederate sympathies in the state which led to the formation of two separate governments with different allegiances. The James family, on both the paternal and maternal sides, had been slave-owners for years which formed their allegiance. Missourians would serve in the armies of both sides of the war until its end in 1865; Frank joined the Missouri State Guard on May 4, 1861, fighting for the Confederacy.\nIn 1862, the illegitimate son of Dr. Archie Reuban Samuel was born out of wedlock by one of the slaves. The mulatto boy was raised as part of the Samuel family.\nWhile in the Missouri State Guard, Frank served in the Battle of Lexington where an estimated 1,774 Union troops lost their lives. A large victory for the State Guard, the Confederates took control of Southwestern Missouri in October 1861.\nAt some point, after the battle, Frank returned home, presumably because of injury or illness. There he was arrested by a local militia of Union supporters. He was released when he signed a statement of allegiance to the Union. But by July 1862 he had instead joined the Missouri Partisan Rangers of William Clark Quantrill. Quantrill\u2019s Raiders were Confederacy supporters who used Guerrilla tactics. They were active in the Border War between Missouri and Kansas and were attacking both the regular Union army and various militia of Union supporters active in the two states.\nQuantrill\u2019s raids gained the attention of other desperados. By 1863, Quantrill recruited others who joined his company including \u201cBloody\u201d Bill Anderson, the James brothers, and the Younger Brothers. In the summer of 1863, Quantrill set his sites on Lawrence, Kansas \u2013 the location of his most infamous destruction.\nEarly on the morning of August 21, 1863, Quantrill along with his murderous force of about 300, descended on the still sleeping town of Lawrence. Incensed by the free-state headquarters town, Quantrill set out on his revenge against the Jayhawker community.\n2 thoughts on \u201cJesse James \u2013 Folklore Hero or Cold-Blooded Killer?\u201d\nAnita K. Kastorff says:\nI love the way Kathy Weiser cleans up this story to cover up the truth. Yes, a lot of what she said is true but a lot of things were left out to disguise the truth as well. I especially like the way she calls the Kansas Jayhawkers a \u201ccommunity.\u201d They were a community like MS 13 is a community. Much like right now, in our present political climate, things were heating up between the polar opposites of the North and South. They had fundamental differences that could have been handled by a strong leader which Abe Lincoln was not. Just as we see violence heating up in our country now, violence began to escalate at the Missouri Kansas border. Since the Confederate states were falling into disfavor with the new vocal abolitionists, Kansas took it upon itself to begin raiding confed Mo. a full 2 years before war was ever declared. They burned homes, killed and raped citizens and stole millions of dollars worth of property and hauled it by wagon loads to their center of operations in Lawrence Kansas. This is why the James boys and others did a raid on the city. The people of this city were getting rich off the stolen property of the people of Missouri. This was conveniently left out by the author, Kathy Weiser. The government did not stop any of this carnage by Kansas. Bloody Bill Anderson\u2019s two little sisters, aged 10 and 12 were kidnapped and held in a shack which collapsed on them killing one and paralyzing the other. This is when Bill Anderson got his new name. Cole Younger\u2019s father was murdered delivering the mail. Jesse James was nearly beaten to death when he was 15 years old and plowing corn. His stepfather who was a doctor was strung up in a tree to hang, but somehow survived. William Quantril was a school teacher. Jim Younger was the son of a wealthy Missouri farmer. He didn\u2019t need to rob stage coaches. After the war, Jesse James tried to surrender to the authorities but was shot in the chest holding up a white flag. After this, they all went outlaw. I don\u2019t blame them one damn bit. By the way, I am a direct descendant of Jesse James and proud of it. Looks like me and my kids are just in time for the second civil war. Bring it on. We need some more heroes in the family.\nWith sincere, due respect\u2026 you are not seeing the forest for the trees when you make a broad comment on Kathy\u2019s intentions as our editor from one single article. You should broaden your knowledge of us and how we have presented the border war. I suggest starting with Bleeding Kansas & the Missouri Border War, and then visit the Civil War main page for additional articles. We have strived to present both sides fairly, and look at this horrible period through a \u201chistorical\u201d lens only. As for the rest, I pray neither of us ever see the horrors of Civil War and suggest you make sure to make your feelings known at the ballot box, whatever you believe.",

        "title": "Working With NGOs: An Award-Winning Photojournalist Weighs In - Interview with Olivier Laban-Mattei | LensCulture",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Olivier Laban-Mattei\nOlivier Laban-Mattei has had an extensive career as a photojournalist: while working for Agence France Presse, he covered conflict-prone areas such as Iraq, Iran, Gaza Strip, Georgia Burma, Haiti and Tunisia. He then veered onto the path of a freelancer and began covering the refugee crisis: recently, following migrants along the Serbian-Hungarian border.\nA Blink user, MYOP member, and recently appointed director of the agency, Laban-Mattei spoke to Kyla Woods about the benefits of working with an agency and the ethics behind working for non-government organizations.\nKW: How did you start your career as a photojournalist?\nOLM: I began my professional career in 1999, in Corsica (my mother\u2019s home island). It began after hanging around as an assistant photographer at the Sipa Press Agency in Paris.\nAt the time, Corsica was a bit of a hothouse. The island was going through dark times, with the assassination of Prefect Erignac, the misdeeds of his successor Prefect Bonnet, the chase to track down the Erignac assassin, major fires, clandestine meetings out in the wilds in the middle of the night, political and mafia killings\u2026Even if these events affected me directly, I can say, objectively, that the island was a very interesting terrain for a photojournalist, especially for someone who was just starting out. So, I started working with a Corsican press agency in Ajaccio from 1999 to 2000, before becoming one of the many worldwide Agence France-Presse freelancers beginning in 2000.\nKW: So tell us about your experience with Agence France-Presse (AFP).\nOLM: I worked for AFP for ten years in all, five years as a freelancer in Corsica, and five years as a staff photographer in Paris.\nAFP represented a learning curve for me. Firstly, it taught me about journalism. In France, there is no state establishment dedicated to teaching photojournalism, and we mostly learn on the ground, through meeting people, getting things right and wrong, through misfortune and good luck. My time at AFP happened at the start of my career, and thus was a very lucky opportunity for me to move quickly beyond simply shooting pictures to learning to consider photography as a narrative tool, and to making progress in investigative and interview techniques.\nI\u2019ve met many young people who throw themselves wholeheartedly into the business without knowing which path to take, or knowing the basic rules of journalism, or even its ethical code. AFP was my chance to learn all that. And above all, it taught me discipline.\nKW: So why did you leave AFP?\nOLM: Despite the significant advantages it offered, AFP no longer completely satisfied my expectations. I didn\u2019t feel I got to go on assignment enough, even though I did have the opportunity to cover some of the major worldwide events at the time. And above all, each subject was treated in a purely factual manner, with no attention paid to analysis of the background or the potential consequences. To sum up, I had to make do with reporting events only in the present tense.\nAfter the Haiti earthquake, which was a major catalyst in my professional life, I finally decided to leave AFP to be able to take on more long-term projects, whilst still covering news events that I wanted to approach from my own, distinctive, sideways angle.\nKW: When do you first start covering war? Can you speak a bit about this experience?\nOLM: I was first confronted with conflict in the summer of 2007, when I was \u201cembedded\u201d with the U.S. Army in Iraq, in Baghdad and Baqubah. It was a new world to me, an unknown situation. It was modern-day warfare in all that it entails, in terms of injustice. It was a country destroyed, filled with people I couldn\u2019t approach.\nAlso, I found in the U.S. Army a group that was far from the clich\u00e9d views that we have of it in Europe. I found kids there who had quickly discovered that they were fighting an illegitimate war, youngsters who had signed up to serve after September 11 and were finally realizing that they were just pawns being played in a lost cause. I discovered \u201cdeath caused by mankind\u201d on a massive scale. I learned fear. I learned to love life.\nKW: Was there a point when you wanted to move away from covering conflicts and natural disasters?\nOLM: I have never wanted to stop covering those events. I now look for ways to tell those stories another way.\nI try to adapt Capas\u2019s famous words\u2014\u201dIf your pictures aren\u2019t good enough, you aren\u2019t close enough\u201d\u2014to a version I prefer: \u201cIf your pictures aren\u2019t good enough, you haven\u2019t taken a step back.\u201d\nI don\u2019t believe that conflict is at its most comprehensible from the front line.\nKW: You\u2019ve won numerous awards\u2014can you speak about which of these awards meant the most to you? Do you have a particular image or story that has special import for you?\nOLM: I won a number of awards when I was working for AFP, including three World Press awards in three consecutive years. It was a period of plenty, so to speak, and it seemed that my photography corresponded to the standards that competition juries were looking for. The prizes meant that I gained a level of recognition, which made it easier to launch my post-AFP career as an independent photographer.\nKW: Can you talk about positive and challenging aspects of being a freelancer, in comparison to working for a news agency?\nOLM: Being a freelance photographer means living permanently with financial risk. It\u2019s made a big difference to me, compared with my position at AFP where I was guaranteed a permanent job, a top salary, as well as fixers and hotel rooms booked and paid for in advance for each assignment. Secure, comfortable employment is the ultimate dream for many photographers, which I can easily understand.\nBut in the end, it became a handicap for me\u2014there is certain amount of insecurity that forces a photographer to remain sharp, imaginative, and combative. I\u2019d go even further and say: every failure leads to a renaissance. There is always a bit of a kick that results from overcoming a hurdle, from picking yourself up and moving on (for example, after financing is refused). Packing up your bundle and setting out again is one of the intellectually interesting aspects of this business.\nNow, within certain limits, of course: you go too far and there\u2019s a risk of sinking into depression. It\u2019s a risk you need to be aware of, ready to pull back from the cliff\u2019s edge. The challenge is in being able to adapt to the difficulties thrown up by the market without leaving your convictions and your projects behind. It\u2019s a high-stakes game, at which most photographers lose. I am not immune to that myself.\nBut the key to success for a freelance photographer, even more important than talent, is the network you are able to create around yourself. Without a network it\u2019s difficult, indeed impossible to \u201cexist.\u201d\nAs a freelancer you have to be above all your own best salesperson. You have to be capable of fighting for your projects through all stages of the process from the initial idea to publication, and ensuring after-sales service too. In a sense, Blink responds in part to this demand by bringing photographers and clients together and saving precious time. In my case, it\u2019s probably my greatest failing: I\u2019m aware that I\u2019m not a great networker. I\u2019m not great at using Twitter, Facebook, Instagram et al. I tend to prefer solitude, fleeing crowds, noise and the latest fads.\nIt\u2019s an effort for me: not to go off-radar for too long, at risk of being forgotten, but also to remain visible for the right reasons.\nKW: Can you talk a bit about the Mongolian Project? Is it your first long-term project? How did you start it?\nOLM: I set up The Mongolian Project in 2013\u2014it brought together three journalists, a videographer and a scientist, motivated by the desire to document Mongolian society as it currently exists. The project arose from the observation that the mining boom in Mongolia had brought about true social and economic revolution.\nAt the heart of The Mongolian Project was the desire to tell the tale of that revolution, in-depth, over a long period of time. I therefore decided to live there, in Ulan Bator, along with the two writers and the videographer. How would it be possible to understand a society without living in it on a daily basis?\nThis documentary work was intended to be an in-depth report on the major changes currently taking place in the country. The first part of the project was completed after a year, with an exhibition at the Visa Pour l\u2019Image. Unfortunately, the rest has never been achieved due to lack of financing.\nKW: You joined MYOP agency in 2013, how has this helped your career as a photojournalist?\nOLM: MYOP is an agency that is like a large family and teeming with life. We enjoy being with each other, we argue, we laugh and we create. After my agency experience, I didn\u2019t want another experience of a classic hierarchy, with a rigid structure and bosses making decisions for me.\nMYOP brings together very differing \u201ceyes\u201d and eclectic styles of photography, and includes artists as well as photojournalists. We all take inspiration from each other, thus progressing in our reflection, vision of photography and personal work. Though it doesn\u2019t provide for my daily living, it does offer mutual assistance, enriching discussions, collaborative projects and pooling of contacts and networks.\nKW: You\u2019ve made a transition from war photography, to mainly working for organizations like the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR)\u2014how did this happen?\nOLM: I don\u2019t feel that I have really changed in my choice of photographic subjects. My work with NGOs enables me to make a living while continuing to cover the same subjects as always. Actually, I\u2019ve just finished a six-month project on the victims of the crisis in the Central African Republic, and the trauma caused by conflict. The question of refugees is a central one in war.\nKW: What are some of the challenges and positives of working with organizations like this? The access you have to new subjects would be a plus, but do you need to negotiate your contracts with them?\nOLM: There are certain advantages and some special restrictions when working for an NGO. Depending on the size and structure, field of action, reputation, local or worldwide scope, legal status (an international organisation such as the UN or a private NGO such as M\u00e9decins sans frontiers), or even the nationality of its members, experiences will be different.\nOne thing is certain: more and more photojournalists are turning to work with humanitarian organisations. There are two main reasons for this\u2014there is still money available, and the subjects covered are often close to the subject they would like to cover.\nThen, everything depends on the contract agreed with the organisation: apart from the salary involved, consideration has to be given to how the photos will be distributed, and to the share of usage rights. These aspects vary hugely from one organisation to another. In some cases, NGOs request the photographer to communicate on the group\u2019s actions by photographing their personnel on the ground, for example. This is a specific \u201ccorporate\u201d type of work; it\u2019s \u201cadvertorial\u201d work, really.\nKW: What about the freedoms that a photographer might have when working with an NGO?\nOLM: Sometimes, they allow photographers to document the crisis situation with their own eyes (without even mentioning the presence of the NGO on the ground). In such a situation, the photographer is able to offer his work to newspapers since it corresponds to the basic ethical criteria of journalism. This means, NGOs are frequently becoming providers of informative content and have even surpassed a good number of newspapers who, due to the costs involved, can no longer send photographers on assignments lasting several weeks.\nI made the choice of continuing to tell the stories of those involved in or around conflict with the organizations that made it possible for me to do so. As a result, I find myself in particular humanitarian situations where photography is able to bring about changes which are quickly visible and very concrete (targeted supplies of aid, political decisions taken, for example).\nAnd a final advantage is that working with NGOs sometimes makes access possible in restricted or even prohibited zones. The photographer can thus contribute a different vision of the conflict, an additional angle and point of view of the catastrophe.\nKW: And what\u2019s the interest for the NGOs in hiring photojournalists such as yourself?\nOLM: Hiring a photographer presents several advantages. Firstly, an independent eye gives the message worth. Also, the story benefits from the photographer\u2019s network, and is thus more easily broadcast out to the media and to a wider audience through exhibitions, conferences and publications (books, for example). For these reasons, I think that in the coming years, photographers will come to work more and more with NGOs.\nHowever, care needs to be taken on the photographer\u2019s part to find the right terms of collaboration. Foremost: there must be a clear moral contract. If an NGO hires a photojournalist, they must agree that the photojournalist remains faithful to journalistic ethics and can avoid criticism about being mere \u201ccommunicators.\u201d It must be understood that the status of \u201cjournalist\u201d does not stop with the employer, nor with a plastic ID card. A journalist\u2019s role is, above all, to be at the service of the population.\n\u2014Olivier Laban-Mattei, interviewed by Kyla Woods\nUlaanbaatar, Bayan Khoshuu. On a cold winter's morning, residents from the yurt district set off for work and school amidst a cloud of smoke from the home fires. The average wage-earner in Ulan Bator is paid 600,000 tugriks a month, and struggles to survive. Nearly 1.5 million people, which is half the population of Mongolia, now live in the capital city. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nUlt Valley, Arkhanga\u00ef. Batjargal searches for gold, unofficially. The \"ninjas\" use picks and pans, working near the official mines, risking their lives for a few grams of gold to help feed their families. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nUlaanbaatar, Bayanz\u00fcrkh. Even in the center of the capital city, there are districts, such as Bayanz\u00fcrkh (meaning \"rich heart\"), that do not have running water. With poor hygiene, tuberculosis can spread quickly in these areas. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nNalaikh, Mongolia. Illegal coal miners finishing a work shift after twelve hours. The authorities tolerate illegal mining as there are no other jobs to provide for these migrants.

Under her mother's inquisitive and protective gaze in their tent in Gado, Cameroon, she thinks about her future. She would also like to go to school, mostly out of curiosity. Her mother doesn't encourage this idea, thinking that school's no place for a country girl and that anyway she wouldn't be able to keep up. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nCentral African survivors just arrived at the Cameroon border town of Garoua-Boula\u00ef on October 30, 2014. They are soon transferred by the Red Cross in Cameroon to the Gado refugee camp 20 kilometres away. Anxiety is etched on their faces. After months of wandering in the bush, fleeing their attackers, this new group of exiles wonders what is to become of them. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nSuleiman, November 12, 2014. He washes in the river, several kilometres into the bush from the Timangolo refugee camp in eastern Cameroon. He and his mother have been living there for five months. He is hardly 16 years old, but the fact that Suleiman is alive is a miracle. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nA woman and her son struggle through a storm on May 28, 2015 in the M'Poko displaced persons camp in Bangui, where living conditions are appalling. The camp\u2019s residents were among the first to flee the atrocities in December 2013. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nCentral African police officers guard the entrance to the National Security Center in Bangui on June 2, 2015. Here, it has been transformed into an aid distribution centre. Hundreds of internally displaced people have been queuing, waiting for the doors to open since early morning. They hope to obtain tarpaulins and food from foreign NGOs. \u00a9 Olivier Laban-Mattei/MYOP\nNigerian refugees arrive on the beach of Baga Sola, on the Chadian coast of Lake Chad, on February 8, 2015.

        "raw_content": "Frank Popper, Spirit Rector of Kinetic Art, is celebrating his 100th birthday\nWritten by J\u00fcrgen Claus\nkunstzeitung (Berlin), 4/2018, p. 14\nfrank_popper_1.jpg\nLike Vil\u00e9m Flusser, two years younger, Frank Popper comes from the city of Kafka, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k, the Golem, over whose Moldau bridge the philosophers and Kabbalists moved, entangled in infinite fluency. Frank's parents had a \"seat\" in the Old New Synagogue. His early Judaism was connected with the idea that he would be the owner of an art object. At the age of three he comes to Vienna, where the mother came from. At the age of 20, he fled to England with his brother. The family is murdered.\nIn the \"Bottomess\" of the emigre summoned by Flusser, Frank Popper finds a home in art. He builds friendships with artists, moves to Paris in the early 1950s. When I meet him in the 1980s, he lives, works in an artists \u201eDichterklause\u201c on the Quai des Grands Augustins overlooking Notre Dame. He had written a doctoral dissertation from his encounters with artists, especially the kinetic movement, light and environment, and taught until 1985 as professor of aesthetics and the arts at the University of Paris VIII.\nWhen the Paris May broke out in 1968, instead of lectures and seminars, the student discussion forums, enmeshed in infinite fluency, determined the course, Frank was able to rise from the podium in the afternoon and say goodbye: \"I am going to have my cup of tea!\u201c However, when he wrestled for a new location of art and its protagonists, his Art - action and participation masterpiece, which appeared seven years later in New York, revealed 300 pages packed with comprehensive social analyzes and images of the \"break - up years\". (\"Signature Years\" in the words of Peter Weibel, see kunstzeitung No.1, 2018, p.13.) One wished that this central art-social book would find a new edition.\nFor many of his contemporaries, Frank Popper, who turns 100 on 17 April this year, remains the esprit recteur of kinetic art, to which he has curated historical exhibitions such as KunstLichtKunst in Eindoven 1966 or Lumi\u00e8re et mouvement in Paris 1967. Partly with his wife, art historian Aline Dallier, he has until recently written key books on electronic art. He became an encyclopedist of an Enlightenment based on art.",

        "raw_content": "Alison Clancy | April 4, 2012\nLiquidPlanner Case Study: How the University of Dayton Plans for the Future Using LP\nThe University of Dayton, one of the top Catholic universities in the nation, has had the same motto for the last 150 years: to learn, lead and serve. And serve they do, with over 10,000 students attending every year. With a diverse student population, the university has made it a priority to encourage students to become well-rounded future leaders by providing them with real world skills.\nThe Enrollment Office is the department responsible for enrolling students from different cultures and socio-economic backgrounds. Robert Winger, Director of Enrollment Technology, understands better than anyone about the pressures faced by all departments (including marketing and admissions) to ensure the university establishes a rich and diverse student body.\nEffective communication across all enrollment functions and projects is of the utmost importance, which is why Winger chose LiquidPlanner as the office\u2019s go-to-collaboration tool.\nThe Enrollment Process: A Communications Challenge\nThe enrollment process at the university is both complex and time intensive. From the initial step of conducting a search to identify the right list of prospective students, through to the final stages of admissions, there\u2019s a lot to be done. Winger soon realized that his team members were working within information silos, and lacked an understanding of one another\u2019s ongoing work. This led him to LiquidPlanner, and he saw the benefits of improved collaboration right away.\nSoon, the department was facilitating better communications between team members through deeper insights into various enrollment projects. In addition, LiquidPlanner allowed the executive team to quickly and easily check the status on key projects at the institution while prioritizing tasks across multiple projects.\n\u201cThe student search process involves many steps and many people. It\u2019s also an 18 month cycle, so things can get very complicated,\u201d said Winger. \u201cWith the whole search process in LiquidPlanner, everyone could see who was contributing to their projects at every stage. The streamlined communications immediately saved time for our employees.\u201d\nAnother reason the university chose LiquidPlanner was because it offered a web-based approach, making project management easier for both IT and department managers.\nLiquidPlanner has proven to be so effective at the institution that Sundar Kumarasamy, Vice President for Enrollment Management, mandated that the solution be rolled out across other departments in the institution\u2014specifically to improve communications. By using LiquidPlanner, each team member will know how project decisions will impact other team members, giving complete visibility across the board.\nDeveloping Real World Skills Through Project Management\nStudents at the university benefit from LiquidPlanner even after they\u2019ve been accepted. The University of Dayton uses LiquidPlanner\u2019s portal functionality to provide students with insights into specific projects. For example, the marketing team may include several students in a core project and then allow students to update various tasks.\n\u201cAnother thing I love about LiquidPlanner is its ability to help individuals plan their day,\u201d said Winger. \u201cThe solution actually supports our highest mission to develop real world leadership skills in our students through its ability to clearly prioritize tasks.\u201d\nLiquidPlanner Case Study: How the University of Dayton Plans for the Future Using LP was last modified: January 31st, 2014 by Alison Clancy",

        "raw_content": "Life saving research into Carbon Monoxide\nLife-saving research into Carbon Monoxide\nThe Report Carbon Monoxide: From Awareness to Action - Inquiry findings: Detection and Technology is the benchmark for all CO related activities in the UK.\nThe research project is part of an ongoing study into the levels of CO found in the home, led by Dr Andy Shaw in the University\u2019s School of the Built Environment within the BEST Research Institute. The initial work was with Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service and West Midlands Fire Service and Coventry City Council to develop a methodology to identify the amount of CO poisoning going unreported back in 2011. More than 27,000 properties were visited in the study in Coventry and Liverpool and, on average, only 10% had a CO alarm installed. The investigation helped save the lives of people in the two cities after the data loggers picked up dangerous levels of the gas being produced by boilers, cookers and secondary heating appliances.\nThe findings of the initial study were presented at a dissemination event, hosted at LJMU in 2012 featuring a keynote address from Baroness Finlay of Llandaff, co-Chair of an inquiry by the All Party Parliamentary Gas Safety Group on carbon monoxide (now called the All Party Parliamentary Carbon Monoxide Group). The Baroness suggested LJMU establish a dedicated Carbon Monoxide Centre of Excellence due to the highly quality of this work.\nThe ongoing study within the Centre now uses CO data loggers to build a more detailed picture of the potential low level chronic exposure in dwellings utilising Fire & Rescue Services as trusted messengers to install the loggers and record information about the property with an extended version of their home fire safety check. The team at LJMU also includes academics in Computing and Mathematical Sciences, Psychology and Public Health & Nursing all of which are studying CO related aspects such as establishing how victims are affected and effecting a behavioural change.\nThe Gas Safety Trust (GST) also awarded a grant to LJMU to expand the study from two city centres to five counties by partnering with five Fire and Rescue Services, Merseyside, Cornwall, Bedfordshire, West Midlands and Oxfordshire. The funding is also supported by an in-kind contribution from the Council for Gas Detection and Environmental Monitoring (CoGDEM) whose members have supplied CO alarms and data loggers to undertake a comprehensive CO investigation covering 75,000 households.\nDr Andy Shaw, CO project Manager said: \"The concept of this work is to get a national perspective on the number of people who maybe suffering either acute or chronic poisoning from Carbon Monoxide without being aware and determine the risk factors that may exist both in terms of health impact and in prevention.\n\u201cAfter the initial study was complete I was asked to take part in several CO working groups in Westminster and I\u2019m now a member of the CO+ Science and technology group. This has led to the team collating the body of evidence for the All Party Parliamentary Carbon Monoxide Group which allowed me to submit LJMU\u2019s research findings on the CO study.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "New research by Public Health Institute on children\u2019s perceptions of electronic cigarettes\nThe increasing popularity and rapid growth of electronic cigarettes has raised considerable concern about their impact on children and young people. Concerns relate to electronic cigarettes acting as a potential gateway to tobacco smoking for young never-smokers, increased experimentation leading to a renormalisation of smoking behaviour and potential health harms of vaping.\nCurrent research is largely focused on adolescents and young adults. In view of the recognised influence of the early years on attitude and habit formation, better understanding of what young children think about electronic cigarettes is needed.\nThe Public Health Institute at Liverpool John Moores University was commissioned by Public Health Wales to undertake a study investigating primary school children\u2019s perceptions of electronic cigarettes. The report describes the research that was conducted with children in Years 2, 4 and 6 (7-11 years of age) from 8 primary schools across Wales.\nThe research, \u2018Is it all smoke without fire? Welsh primary school children\u2019s perceptions of electronic cigarettes\u2019, found that most children (95 percent) can distinguish between tobacco and electronic cigarettes, with many thinking that e-cigarettes are safer and better than tobacco cigarettes.\nAlmost 94% of the children acknowledged the harmful effects of smoking but children had little understanding of any health harms of electronic cigarettes. There was considerable uncertainty and many misperceptions. Some younger children for example, mistook the fruit flavours as being an indication that the e-liquids contained fruit and were therefore healthy.\nOver a fifth of the children who completed the questionnaire had some exposure to electronic and tobacco cigarettes through family and friends at home. This was found to have influenced children\u2019s perceptions of smoking and vaping with the findings suggesting that children exposed to electronic cigarettes at home are better informed than their peers.\nResults highlight the need for comprehensive evidence based electronic cigarette education in Welsh primary schools and suggest that health messaging efforts should reinforce children\u2019s views of electronic cigarettes as smoking cessation devices within a harm reduction narrative.\nSuggested key areas to improve children\u2019s understanding of the risks associated with electronic cigarettes were:\nIncluding evidence based electronic cigarette education as part of the education curriculum of Welsh primary schools to address gaps in knowledge\nHealth messaging efforts should reinforce children\u2019s views that electronic cigarettes are devices to help people quit tobacco cigarettes, but they are not without harm\nMore research is required to understand how primary school children\u2019s perceptions can influence future vaping behaviour\nDr Lorna Porcellato, lead author of the study from the Public Health Institute, Liverpool John Moores University, said:\n\u201cAs one of the first global studies to investigate electronic cigarettes in the context of childhood, this research contributes unique and important insights to an underdeveloped body of knowledge. Primary school children represent an important cohort. Understanding how they conceptualise electronic cigarettes prior to experimentation is imperative for the development of effective health promotion interventions that highlight potential risks and prevent uptake in young never smokers.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "We are living in a digital world, and these make scanners be essential tools that we all need in one way or another. They help use Scan documents, magazines and even images. There are various types of scanners based on their work; these includes handheld scanners, sheet-fed scanners, flatbed scanners and portable scanners among others. In this article, we are going to learn more about the mobile scanner. The portable scanner also comes with different shapes and features, at the end we will be able to know which one to buy and why. For more information visit Scanningthings.com.\nPortable scanners make the work easier since it\u2019s not bulky and one can move with it from one place to another. For example, you might need to take some crucial information from a document from your office to your house, and instead, if taking the whole document to your home, you just need to use your portable scanner. Portable scanner comes in variety of styles and sizes, but the most common ones are;\nWand type scanners\nPen type scanners.\nWand type scanners.\nIt scans a wide area like pages, pictures and images. It\u2019s able to store content in black and white using a small resolution of up to 300*300 dpi. It\u2019s also very fast and takes only a few seconds to complete scanning.\nUnlike wand, pen type scanners are strictly used in scanning and retrieving texts since they can only consider a small area.\nThe following are some of the factors that you should consider before buying a portable scanner.\nYou should look for a scanner with high speed to complete your task faster. Let the speed be a determining factor and not the cost.\nColoured Scanning\nAs I mentioned earlier, wand type scanner can store black and white and coloured documents and images. You might end up buying a scanner that won\u2019t be useful and end up losing money. So, if you will be dealing with a lot of coloured documents and images you should go for it.\nThe Purpose of the Scanner\nBefore purchase, you should be aware of how often you will require the scanner and also the primary objective. By these I mean that one might be working in high volume, in such situation one is recommended to have a loader. With a loader, you can carry multiple documents, and these will be safe you a lot of time.\nIt\u2019s also an important factor to consider before purchasing your scanner. Some scan both sides of the document at the same time while others will only scan one side. You also need to know what exactly you are scanning. For example for a massive object it advisable that you should go for a scanner with a handle. These takes your work easier and faster to complete.\nAfter you are satisfied with the features of a good portable scanner information, that matches with the use. Look for a scanner that will give you service for a long time, and don\u2019t let the cost scare you to an extent of buying a cheap scanner. Cheap is always expensive. Go for original products with warranty services because they will never disappoint you.\nhttps://www.logicpin.com/gadget/things-you-didnt-know-you-could-do-with-a-digital-scanner\">",

There is betrayal, there is tragedy for a family when a group of soldiers come knocking on the door and there is power of fantasy.\nBut above all is the difference in the strength of one woman (Juno) and weakness of men highlighting, O\u2019Casey\u2019s view on Feminism.\nThere is also a great showing of support in a time of mourning from Mrs Madigan and chastising from Needle Nugent. There is also a devastated Jerry which turns to dismissiveness.\nThere are also appearances from neighbours, soldiers, sewing machine men and furniture removers.\nThe performance will start at 8pm nightly.",

        "raw_content": "Best-selling author shares her personal story with Yankee Hill students\nA best-selling author of books aimed at teenagers visited Yankee Hill Education Center last week and shared her personal story - one that did not seem destined for a happy ending when she herself was a teenager.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t supposed to have this life. Any of my teachers would have said, \u2018Uh uh, not her,\u2019\u201d said Laurie Halse Anderson. She was speaking to a group of students on Friday who recently read her most well-known book, \u201cSpeak,\u201d which has sold more than four million copies, been translated into 28 languages and turned into a movie.\nAnderson was among a group of children\u2019s and young-adult authors who spoke to classes throughout Lincoln Public Schools on Thursday and Friday in advance of their appearance at the Plum Creek Literacy Festival, held last weekend at Concordia University in Seward.\nAt Yankee Hill, Anderson told students how she struggled with school for many years while growing up in western New York. \u201cI had a hard time learning how to read but I had some great public school teachers who pushed me and taught me how to read, how to write,\u201d she said.\nBy high school, Anderson had lost interest in her education. She didn\u2019t study and often chose to sleep during class. A physical education teacher pushed her to go out for sports and the structure that brought to her life had a positive influence on her work in the classroom. After high school, she worked on a dairy farm before enrolling in community college, where she found a renewed motivation to learn.\nShe went on to graduate from Georgetown University, then worked as a newspaper reporter and eventually found her way to fiction writing. She found the inspiration for \u201cSpeak,\u201d her first novel, from a nightmare she had. \u201cI woke up and all I could remember was a girl who was crying,\u201d Anderson said. \u201cSomething bad had happened to her and I started writing to figure out what it was.\u201d\nPublished in 1999, \u201cSpeak\u201d tells the story of a ninth-grade girl who experiences a traumatic event and, unable to verbalize what happened, nearly stops speaking altogether. A teacher encourages her to express herself through art, which helps her process what happened and move forward.\nAnderson estimates she\u2019s talked to more than one million teenagers about \u201cSpeak\u201d and her other books. For the students, it\u2019s inspiring. For Anderson, it\u2019s educational.\n\u201cIf I\u2019ve learned anything about life in the last 20 years, it was from teenagers.\u201d\nThe program at Yankee Hill Education Center is designed for high school students who require more structure and support systems to succeed. The same program is used at the Don Sherrill Education Center for elementary students and at the Nuernberger Education Center for those in middle school. Each education center\u2019s ultimate goal is for students to return to their home schools.",

        "title": "In the Know: League of Women Voters v. Rucho | League of Women Voters",
        "raw_content": "The LWVNC v. Rucho case is a partisan gerrymandering challenge to the North Carolina congressional map. Partisan gerrymandering is the practice of drawing electoral district lines in a way that discriminates against a political party. Arguably, North Carolinians are subject to one of the more challenging partisan gerrymandering plans in the whole country. To be clear, partisan gerrymandering has been happening since before the constitutional convention in the 18th century, and both parties have drawn lines to benefit themselves while in power. As a result, courts have intervened numerous times when the process has gone too far.\nWhat\u2019s the case about?\nAs background, the League of Women Voters of North Carolina sued Robert Rucho in his official capacity as Chairman of the NC Senate Redistricting Committee for the congressional redistricting plan adopted in February 2016. The LWVNC challenged the NC congressional map as a violation of the 1st and 14th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution, rightly asserting that the plan is an impermissible partisan gerrymander.\nWhat\u2019s interesting about this case is how outright cavalier the Senate Redistricting Committee was in introducing and moving this map. The bravado in doing so perhaps stems from the gutting of several key provisions within the Voting Rights Act post-Shelby Co. v. Holder (2013), that would have otherwise protected against any redistricting map that leads to disenfranchising minority voters. A decision in this case, and other partisan gerrymandering cases of this vein, would establish criteria for evaluating whether a partisan gerrymander is unconstitutional.\nWhat\u2019s the status of this case?\nThe case began in 2016 and has endured several legal obstacles but 2018 has been a hotbed of activity that will continue well into the new year:\nDistrict Court declared the NC congressional map unconstitutional and blocked the state from using the map in future elections\nDefendants filed an emergency appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) asking the court not to force the state to redraw the congressional map until the court decided on Gill v. Whitford and Benisek v. Lamone, partisan redistricting cases out of Wisconsin and Maryland, respectively. SCOTUS denied the emergency appeal but allowed for a halting of proceedings until an appeal was filed.\nGill and Benisek decisions are released. SCOTUS vacated and sent LWVNC v. Rucho back to the district court for further consideration based upon Gill.\nA three-judge panel issued a new opinion ruling for the League of Women Voters of North Carolina and that the NC congressional map is a partisan gerrymander in violation of 1st and 14th Amendment.\nDefendants appealed to SCOTUS asserting that both the lower courts have wrongly decided this case and requesting a review by SCOTUS in the 2019 term. A hearing on this case is expected in the coming months.\nOn January 4, SCOTUS agreed to hear the League's North Carolina case to determine whether the lower district court decisions were rightly decided. In addition to reviewing the League's case, the court will hear a similar case out of North Carolina filed by Common Cause as well as the Benisek case in Maryland. The addition of Benisek is significant because the court will review multiple partisan gerrymanders attempted by both GOP and DEM led legislatures. This dynamic will grant the court a level playing field of cases to use when and if the court establishes a standard to determine when partisan gerrymandering goes too far, regardless of which parties control state legislative bodies.\nThe court will hear these cases combined in March 2019 and decide them before the end of the term In June 2019.\nThe League is represented by our legal partners, Southern Coalition for Social Justice and Campaign Legal Center. As mentioned above, this docket is a consolidated matter with LWVNC v. Rucho, Common Cause v. Rucho, and now Benisek v. Lamone. Stay tuned for more updates about this very interesting and important case as there will be a menu of solutions the court will hear during arguments this Spring; and there just might be a new partisan gerrymandering standard to report when these cases are decided.",

        "raw_content": "LWVUS sent the following letter to members of the U.S. House of Representatives highlighting the need for HR1, the For the People Act.\nMembers of the 116th Congress\nDear members of the 116th Congress,\nToday, our democracy is out of balance. That makes it harder to solve the big problems facing our country and our communities. But right now we have a real opportunity for change and solutions that work.\nAs a response to the impact our broken democracy has had on civil rights, and many other issues facing the country, the Declaration for American Democracy coalition was formed. This collection of more than 120 organizations has come together to press for top to bottom, systemic political reforms to return power in our government to the people and the League of Women Voters is proud to stand with them in that effort.\nFollowing the 2013 Supreme Court Shelby decision which gutted Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, our current system allows more blatant and rampant voter suppression across the country that defies the foundational principles of fairness, equity, and open, free access of eligible citizens to vote. The unfortunate result is that our government has become more responsive and protective of vote suppressors than to the people. That must end with this Congress.\nIn the 2018 midterm elections we saw voter suppression in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas, as well as other states across the country. Issues included inadequate number of functioning machines, ill-equipped facilities to accommodate the disabled, hours-long lines, and misinformation to voters on Election Day regarding their registration. With the span of issues across the country, this is no longer simply a state issue, but one that must be addressed nationally.\nThe American people know that Washington is not representing their best interests when millions of Americans who are eligible to vote cannot do so because they are not registered, voter ID laws are used as a tool to suppress the vote, millions of Americans are disenfranchised due to a felony conviction, and a number of states are improperly purging eligible voters from the registration rolls.\nThe American people know that Washington is not representing their best interests when congressional districts are drawn to achieve highly partisan results at the expense of fair representation for citizens.\nThe American people know that Washington is not representing their best interests when executive branch, congressional, and judicial ethics rules have major flaws and are not properly used for oversight and enforcement.\nThe American people know that we can\u2019t fix vote suppression and voter purging until we repair our democracy.\nWe are proud to stand with the Declaration for American Democracy coalition in calling for:\nA strong democracy where voting is a fundamental right and a civic responsibility.\nA strong democracy that serves the people rather than the private interests of public officials and wealthy political donors.\nA strong democracy where our influence is based on the force of ideas, not the size of our wallets.\nA strong democracy where people know who is trying to gain influence over our representatives, who is trying to influence our votes, and how and why policy is being made.\nA strong democracy that works to respond to the needs of all people and communities, building trust in governance and equity.\nWe understand the importance of seizing the historic opportunity we face to repair our political system by moving immediately on a single package of comprehensive democracy reforms. We stand ready to work with you to achieve this critically important outcome.\nPresident, LWVUS",

Urging Board Members to streamline the 2016 QCPR, Samoa Pathway and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in their plans, AOSIS also asked for evaluations of programmes to be undertaken with consideration of the \u201cunique vulnerabilities\u201d of Small Island Developing States.\nIn the statement made at the Executive Board of UN Women, the Maldives reiterated its call for targeted and coordinated support for island states and asked for more coordination of the Board\u2019s work with that of its entities in the field. Ms. Zahir spoke to the cross cutting issue of gender equality in pursuing sustainable development, noting that the ecological and economic vulnerabilities that SIDS face disproportionately affect women and girls in island societies.\nhttps://maldivesembassy.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/logo-for-web.png 0 0 Maldives Embassy https://maldivesembassy.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/logo-for-web.png Maldives Embassy2017-02-14 13:02:422017-11-22 13:03:17\"Maldives urges the UN development boards to support the special circumstances of SIDS in their programmes\nMinister of Foreign Affairs to host the Third Meeting of the Maldives \u2013 Sri Lanka Joint Commission\nThe Third Meeting of the Maldives \u2013 Sri Lanka Joint Commission is scheduled to be held from 8 \u2013 9 February 2017 in Male\u2019.

As a country where young people comprise a large share of the population, priority has been given to the improvement of education, the creation of employment opportunities for youth, and encouraging youth entrepreneurship, noted the Ambassador. The Maldives also highlighted the attention given by the Government to gender parity and to implement policies that support women\u2019s ability to work.\nAmbassador Sareer further noted that size, geographical disparity and narrow economic base make SIDS like the Maldives exceptionally vulnerable to external shocks and more prone to disruption in their development trajectory. He therefore emphasized that there could not be a one-size-fits-all approach to eradicating poverty, and strategies needed to be adapted to national contexts and people-oriented in order for meaningful progress to be made towards achieving sustainable development.\nhttps://maldivesembassy.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/logo-for-web.png 0 0 Maldives Embassy https://maldivesembassy.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/logo-for-web.png Maldives Embassy2017-02-06 12:57:272017-11-22 12:58:18Maldives calls for people-oriented investment to eradicate poverty\nFifty-Third Session of the SAARC Programming Committee commences in Kathmandu\n1 February 2017, Nepal\nUnder the Chairmanship of Nepal, the Fifty-third Session of the SAARC Programming Committee has commenced today.\nThe two-day meeting will consider and make recommendations on matters related to Regional Centres and Specialized Bodies of SAARC such as the South Asian University, the SAARC Development Fund, SAARC Arbitration Council and the South Asian\nStandardization Organisation.

        "raw_content": "WANTING IT ALL - Cherie Booth has it all, doesn't she? - the fascinating and well-paid job, the successful partner, the four kids, the wardrobe ... You don't even need to meet her; you simply know she'll be incredibly impressive in person. She's not just\nby DEBBIE SANDFORD, who formerly worked at McKinsey and RandomHouse\nCherie Booth has it all, doesn't she? - the fascinating and well-paid job, the successful partner, the four kids, the wardrobe ... You don't even need to meet her; you simply know she'll be incredibly impressive in person. She's not just one half of a power couple; she's got the whole power family.\nLooking back, that was who I wanted to be, although it was never an explicit goal. Not the PM's wife, of course, but a professional woman at the top of my field with an equally successful partner and a family.\nPerhaps I'm kidding myself, but at the age of 33 and as MD of a business and with a high-flying lawyer for a husband, it all seemed there for the taking. We were the next generation, waiting in the wings; it could have been us next! A wolf pair, with a few cubs thrown in for good measure.\nClimbing the greasy pole is never easy, but I soon discovered that doing it with children is like having your hands tied behind your back. In most fields now, women without children compete equally with men. But mothers ... well, I now look at Cherie Booth and ask: 'Just what is she giving up?'\nIf she were in a more generalist role she would have found it even harder; with in-depth expertise and experience you can add value far more quickly than a generalist would be able to. But the day-to-day tough calls are undeniably still there.\nWomen in high-profile positions are understandably unwilling to talk publicly about their personal lives. If men don't get asked, why should women? But privately they say they have a different attitude to mothering from many others. They don't get so involved with their children's schooling, for example - they just don't see it as their role to help with homework. They pay the best nannies and schools to do that instead. And, of course, just like any mother working full-time outside the home, they have little time for themselves; the gym goes out of the window along with half a dozen other once-treasured activities.\nThey see themselves as half of a partnership of equals, sharing responsibility for their private lives. One female parent in a power family told me that her partner had described the only difference between the two of them as 'you feel guilty'.\nMost mothers I know feel guilty, so on one level this is not unusual. On quite another level, professional mums come in for so much stick that I marvel anybody wants the job at all. Why are we so quick to judge and criticise these women?\nFor example, an opinion poll published late last year showed that four-fifths of women resented people like Cherie Booth, dubbing them 'show mums' and believing that they succeed only because they have plenty of money. In another instance, when TV presenter Fiona Bruce returned to work soon after giving birth to her child, the Daily Mirror carried the headline 'Was new mum Fiona right to return to work after 16 days?'\nSurely only she and her partner can be the judge of that, not Mirror readers. In such an environment, it's hardly surprising that there are few women at the top of business.\nMeanwhile, men are not, by and large, made to feel guilty. But things are getting tougher for men; our 'be the best you can be' culture is raising expectations for fathers to spend more time with their families, help out more in the home and keep themselves in good nick - all traditionally female pursuits.\nYet the reality is that, while the pressure to do well at work may be higher, our expectations of men doing anything outside work are lower; for example, we didn't see much criticism of Tony Blair for returning to work so soon after Leo was born.\nWhen I stopped working I felt in some small way ashamed. I was letting down the cause of womanhood and throwing away my education; I had an opportunity to smash the glass ceiling and by choosing not to I was somehow failing.\nBut, in reality, we need all kinds of role models for our lives, and of course we cannot live by someone else's standards.\nSo I wish we'd stop knocking those mothers who are succeeding at work, and support them instead. I think Cherie is amazing; I may have made choices that are different from hers, but I will defend to the last her right to make her own choices for her own family.\nWe need more mothers in high-profile positions, just as much as we need stay-at-home mums and dads. They give us a wide range of role models, making it easier for all the rest of us to choose from a broader array of options.\nAnd perhaps, in time, our daughters and sons will be able to choose their own paths and parenting roles based less on gender than on individual inclination and ability.",

        "title": "Pay-TV Penetration Continues Its Slow Descent From 2010's Peak - Marketing Charts",
        "raw_content": "Pay-TV Penetration Continues Its Slow Descent From 2010\u2019s Peak\nPay-TV penetration in the US continues its decline, though it\u2019s by no means a drastic drop. The latest annual survey figures from Leichtman Research Group (LRG) indicate that 78% of TV households in the US subscribe to some type of pay-TV service. That\u2019s down only a point from last year, but still represents a 10-point decline from the peak of 88% in 2010.\nThe declines have been most acute among younger Americans \u2013 who watch less traditional TV than their older counterparts. This year 70% of adults ages 18-44 in TV households report subscribing to a pay-TV service, a substantial 13%-point drop from 83% just 5 years ago.\nThe percentage of adults ages 45 and older in TV homes who subscribe to a pay-TV service has also decreased over that time frame, but by a smaller 5% points, from 88% to 83%.\nMeanwhile, the 22% of adults who said they don\u2019t subscribe to a pay-TV service broke out as follows: 7% last subscribed in the past 3 years; 7% last subscribed more than 3 years ago; and 8% have never subscribed.\nOne of the interesting findings from the survey relates to recent movers. Among those who moved residence in the past year, fully one-third (32%) said they don\u2019t currently subscribe to a pay-TV service. Movers are generally ripe for provider switching, but the proportion foregoing pay-TV overall has grown quite dramatically, from 21% in 2015 and 12% in 2010. It may be that as they cancel their existing services for their move, these adults simply aren\u2019t beginning new contracts in their new residences.\nThe report also points out two other correlations with pay-TV service penetration. The first relates to household income, as 27% of respondents with incomes lower than $50,000 forego pay-TV, compared to 20% with incomes higher than that level. This likely relates to ongoing concerns about the cost of pay-TV, which new survey research [pdf] from The Hollywood Report and Morning Consult shows still abound. Indeed, 90% of respondents to that survey consider cost to be somewhat or very important when it comes to deciding which traditional TV or streaming services to subscribe to, and respondents are as likely to be dissatisfied as satisfied with the cost of their current cable or satellite service.\nFinally, the other link in the LRG research regards the number of TVs in the home. Among those with just one TV in the home, 44% are pay-TV non-subscribers, double the rate of those using 2 TVs (23%) and more than triple the rate of those using 3 or more TVs (12%).\nAbout the Data: The results are based on a weighted telephone survey conducted in September-October 2018 among 1,152 adults ages 18 and older.\nMost TV Households Report Having Both A Pay-TV And A Streaming Video Service The Pay-TV Industry is Benefiting from Subscribers\u2019 Inertia Connected TV Device Penetration Has Reportedly Tripled Since 2010 Few Facebook Users Say They\u2019re Using Its Watch Service Subscribers Say Big SVOD Platforms Are Good Value, Traditional Pay-TV Not So Much Owner Demographics Change As Smart Speaker Penetration Climbs to 1 in 5 Wi-Fi Households",

        "title": "Mobile Credit Card Processing: The Pros and Cons",
        "raw_content": "Mobile Credit Card Processing: The Pros and Cons\nSquare and other mobile applications have changed the merchant services industry. See what the pros and cons of mobile credit card processing is.\nMobile credit card processing is a way for merchants to accept card payments wherever they are. This is a particularly useful tool for small businesses and companies that do not have a set location or are onsite the majority of the time, such as construction firms, hair salons, taxi services, and other mobile retailers.\nHere\u2019s how it works: A reader is attached to a smartphone or tablet that allows a credit card to be swiped. It essentially works the same way as a typical POS system in which someone\u2019s credit card information is read and processed in order to complete a transaction minus the installation and contract.\nThe Rise of Mobile Credit Card Processing\nMobile credit card processing has been on the rise over the past few years, especially since the number of smartphone users has continually increased as well. According to Pew Research Center, a non-profit business that reports on news and trends, 72 percent of American adults own a smartphone as of February 2016 compared to 56 percent in May 2013 and 35 percent in May 2011.\nWith more smartphone owners, more people are starting to consider mobile credit card processing.\nSquare, a credit card processing and business solutions company, made a splash and redefined the market for mobile payments several years ago by creating a user-friendly reader for iPhone users. Square\u2019s inexpensive, easy-to-use solution, which basically turned a smart phone into a point of sale terminal, immediately stole market share from notoriously unreliable, expensive, and clunky mobile terminal providers.\nAlmost overnight, payments companies followed suit and developed app-based solutions for smart phones and offered better pricing than Square, which offers flat rates for credit card processing that appealed primarily to small, or micro merchants (like dog walkers and babysitters), but not established businesses with consistent and material monthly credit card volume.\nThe Pros and the Cons: Easy to Use, But Not as Secure\nOne major benefit to mobile credit card processing is the convenience and accessibility that it offers both merchants and customers. No matter where you are, you can make a transaction if you have a mobile reader. That means a construction worker or hair stylist, for instance, can accept payment for a service onsite. Mobile payment apps and corresponding readers are also simple to set up; merchants simply download the mobile app and plug the card reader into a phone\u2019s audio jack.\nBut this isn\u2019t something that only one company has anymore: mobile payment apps and readers are ubiquitous among credit card processing companies like MerchantPro Express (MPX).\nJoe Doyle, MPX Executive Vice President of Sales Development, says, \u201cWhat they\u2019ve [Square] done is actually really innovative.\u201d Continuing, he explains, \u201cBut this is technology we all have now, and because merchant services companies have underwriting hurdles merchants must overcome before obtaining a merchant account, they don\u2019t experience nearly the amount of fraud that Square does.\u201d\nDoyle also points out that even though Square does not charge any monthly fees associated with its mobile payment processing solution, \u201cTheir rates do vary, and it\u2019s not always so obvious to merchants. Square charges you a lot more if you fail to swipe the card, or the swiper doesn\u2019t read the card for some reason and you have to key it in.\u201d In fact, Square charges 2.75 percent on all credit card volume that is swiped and 3.5 percent as well as $0.15 for every manually entered transaction.\nSome companies, including MPX, can charge much lower rates that can be tailored to suit the needs of larger merchants that process either greater volume or handle more transactions. Sure, the pricing might not be as simple as that of Square\u2019s, but merchants would end up paying considerably less to process credit card payments. Therefore, merchants should look into whether or not those rates end up being less than the amount they would pay if they go to a merchant services company and purchase or lease a POS system. And though purchasing a mobile credit card reader and downloading the app from Square or companies like it (such as PayPal Here, BluePay, Intuit GoPayment, PayAnwhere and Amazon Local Register) does not require a contract, there are some merchant services companies that do not either.\nAdditionally, when it comes to credit cards, people become nervous since there have been numerous cases of security breaches and fraudulent activities over the past few years with people\u2019s personal information being stolen. Mobile credit card processing is still fairly new and not everyone is up to utilizing technology, so many people may still be wary that their card information is not safe, especially because using a mobile credit card reader involves connecting to the internet.\nThere have also been some issues, particularly with Square, in regards to customer service and account holds and/or terminations.\nFor example, there was an instance in early 2014 in which science fiction writer Alex Hvartsman talked about his frustrating experience with Square, claiming they terminated his account without informing him first after stolen credit cards were used at his game store and he received two chargebacks as a result. In the end, Hvartsman did get his money back, but it took several months and the experience still does not sit right with him because of Square\u2019s lack of communication and alleged inadequate customer support.\nConsider All of Your Payment Options\nMerchants should do their research and figure out whether or not teaming up with a merchant services company rather than purchasing a mobile card reader means leaving money on the table because it may end up being the other way around.\nAnd while mobile credit card payments does have it's advantages, merchants are wise to speak with a credit card processing professional that they know and trust or who comes highly recommended to them, so they won't have to worry about customer service or security issues. As Doyle concluded, \u201cTrustworthy credit card processing professionals\u2014which can be difficult to find\u2014know it\u2019s in their best interest to tell a merchant honestly whether they are better-suited for Square or a \u2018big boy\u2019 merchant account.\u201d\nWant to learn more about the benefits of MPX's services?

        "raw_content": "Mortgage Companies - The New Wave of Organized, Criminal Organizations Aimed to Steal the Homes from American Citizens\nOne of the more insidious and deceptive practices of the mortgage companies, in their relentless attempts to steal your home, is to pay your tax bill and then increase your monthly mortgage payment. Here's how it works:\nMy clients pay their local property, school and sewer taxes directly to the tax authorities. They pay their mortgage payments separately. Many of my clients get paid bonuses at the end of the year, which allows them to make these payments in late December of the year the tax is due. Other clients, who fell behind on their taxes have worked out repayment plans for the taxes with the tax authorities.\nAfter years of successfully paying their taxes through one of the above scenarios, a new mortgage servicing company is now handling your account or your mortgage has been assigned to a new mortgage company. A servicing company does not own or hold the mortgage or the Note but its job is to process payments and keep track of your payments.\nOnce these vultures get involved, your ability to get rational answers to questions and cooperation with issues you may have becomes an exercise in futility.\nThe new Mortgage company or the loan servicer reviews the account and then determines that, since you are either behind on your tax payments, despite your history of a payment plan or that you haven't paid the taxes by the end of the year, that they will now pay all of the taxes. There are two problems with this:\nThey don't discuss their plans with you before taking this action;\nThey unilaterally increase your monthly payments. This increase often makes it impossible for my clients to make their mortgage payments because they cannot afford the new payment.\nHere's how it works. After the mortgage people pay your taxes. They divide the total they paid for one year into twelve month increments and the charge you that amount each month in order to repay them. That may actually work for a lot of people but here's real kicker. They then decide that, since you are behind in one year, that they want to make sure you don't fall behind in future years, so they double the new amount you are being charged to make sure that next year's taxes are covered, too.\nSo, let's say your monthly, mortgage payment is $1500 a month. Your taxes are $3600 a year. Under our scenario, you will now be required to pay $1500 plus $300 for repayment plus $300 for next year's taxes for a total of $2100 a month. This means that your mortgage payment just increased by 40 percent per month.\nI don't know many people who can afford that kind of hit on their finances. Interestingly, I get occasional calls from people who formerly worked for these companies and who are now being victimized by them. They are eager to tell about the mortgage companies' \"dirty tricks\", now that they lost their jobs. There was probably not much they could do while they had these jobs but I would hope that these folks, at least, made some effort to help their fellow citizens since it is obvious that our state and federal governments are too busy protecting the banks at your expense.",

They are always up and ready to dance and party. They are so enthusiastic and that is what it is all about for us.\nWhat can we expect from you at Borde Hill Garden?\nWe are playing some new songs that we have been working on for the past few years as well as our back catalogue, with a lot of songs you may know. We love mixing it up and we will!\nIt\u2019s a beautiful setting at Borde Hill. What\u2019s it like to play somewhere like that?\nIt is a different vibe when you play a beautiful setting. It provides the backdrop for the show, so it\u2019s a bonus. The audience does get a better sense of being there when the settling is that much more beautiful.\nWhat\u2019s different about playing an outdoor show?\nOutdoor concerts are both great and difficult. The sound and lights are always more challenging in an open-air venue. There is also weather that affects an outdoor show. The payoff is that a beautiful setting (what I described in your last question) brings the show to a new level if the weather is good. We play a lot of outdoor shows around the world in deserts, rainforests, mountains and on oceans. We are never used to it but have been able to take our experience and make it work for us.\nIt\u2019s been 36 years since your first album. What\u2019s the secret of your longevity?\nWe love what we do. It\u2019s not a job.\nHow has the band changed in that time?\nNicolas and I have always been here, writing, playing and producing the music. We have brought our brothers in during the early years and now have brought in our sons in on the front line. It has been a real great experience to work with your family and watch them grow as people and as musicians.\nA Boundless Summer is presented by Boundless, an events and experiences company with a 94-year heritage, and Neil O\u2019Brien Entertainment.\nAs well as UB40 and The Gipsy Kings, the concerts will also feature up-and-coming Sussex bands as part of Boundless Breaking, a competition that received more than 150 entries.\nBoundless is a club dedicated to civil servants and public sector workers.

(AP File Photo)\nBy James Schmehl\nTwo years ago, Texas Rangers pitching coach Mike Maddux flirted with the idea of becoming a manager, drawing serious interest from the Chicago Cubs and Boston Red Sox.\nUltimately, he decided to stay with the Rangers and withdrew his name from the process so he could remain close to his two daughters who were in school in Texas.\nBut this time around, Maddux is ready to take the next step, and he has his eyes set on the Detroit Tigers' managerial opening, a position he said has turned into one of the marquee jobs in recent years.\n\"I'd absolutely be interested,\" Maddux told MLive.com late Thursday. \"I'd be flattered.\"\nThe Tigers officially started interviewing candidates for the vacant managerial job Thursday, starting with Tigers hitting coach Lloyd McClendon. They're expected to continue interviewing candidates this week and the following week.\nAs of late Thursday Detroit had not reached out to Maddux, the brother of former Cubs star Greg Maddux, but he has been mentioned in several local and national reports as a possible candidate to replace Jim Leyland in a field that is expected to grow the next few days.\nMaddux, who has no managing experience, is an intriguing name in a field of flawed candidates. He was mentioned in early October as a possible candidate to replace Dale Sveum in Chicago, but confirmed he hasn't been contacted by Cubs officials as of Thursday.\n\"It's one thing to have interest. It's another to have them be interested,\" he said in a phone conversation. \"It's a two-way street.\"\nBoth the Tigers and Cubs would need to ask for permission from the Rangers to contact Maddux.\nFor now, it appears Maddux -- who pitched for nine different teams in the majors over a 15-year span -- will turn his attention to Detroit, one of four major league teams looking for new managers this offseason.\n\"This team is built to win now,\" Maddux said. \"I would try to put my own brand on it and just try to fill Jim Leyland's shoes -- not that anyone will be able to fill his shoes.\"\nMaddux, 52, has been the Rangers' pitching coach since 2009 and is considered among the best pitching coaches in the American League. When asked about the possibility of managing arguably the best rotation in the majors, he said it'd be an \"absolute treat.\"\n\"They've got a spectacular rotation with a 1-2 punch that keeps you on your toes,\" Maddux said. \"They're good in the bullpen. They've got youth in between. Jim Leyland has put them in a position to succeed.\"",

        "raw_content": "Rising Health Care Costs Killing Wages for Working Americans\nThe Washington Post has been front-paging some great reporting recently on the economic trials of everyday Americans. Here\u2019s another example today, about the impact of rising health care costs:\nEmployees and employers are getting squeezed by the price of health care. The struggle to control health costs is viewed as crucial to improving wages and living standards for working Americans. Employers are paying more for health care and other benefits, leaving less money for pay increases. Benefits now devour 30.2 percent of employers\u2019 compensation costs, with the remaining money going to wages, the Labor Department reported this month. That is up from 27.4 percent in 2000.\n\u201cThe way health-care costs have soared is unbelievable,\u201d said Katherine Taylor, a vice president for Local 1199 of the Service Employees International Union. \u201cThere are people out here making decisions about whether to keep their lights on or buy a prescription.\u201d\nSince 2001, premiums for family health coverage have increased 78 percent, according to a 2007 report by the Kaiser Family Foundation. Premiums averaged $12,106, of which workers paid $3,281, according to the report.\nThat massive jump in premiums is one reason why, according the Post, \u201cinflation-adjusted median family income has dipped 2.6 percent \u2014 or nearly $1,000 annually since 2000.\u201d\nPrevious: Mulch 101\nNext: Kristol: Giving McCain a Pass for Campaigning with an Anti-Islam Bigot",

        "raw_content": "Motorhome Tips Tourist Routes\nMany visitors to Scotland are surprised by how narrow some of the roads are, especially if they\u2019re not used to driving a large vehicle like a motorhome. Even passing other vehicles on normal A and B roads can feel very tight. But some roads are even narrower: single-track roads with passing places are something of a feature of driving in rural Scotland, particularly in the Highlands.\nScotland\u2019s Highlands and Islands often use single track roads with frequent passing places. These roads are less manicured than larger roads, but often have the most spectacular views! Photo credit: John M.\nVisitors from elsewhere in Britain may have come across such roads. They certainly exist in rural parts of England and Wales. But they are very rare elsewhere in the developed world, and can cause worry and confusion. So here are our best tips for safe driving on single-track roads.\nLook out for passing places!\nPassing places are usually marked, normally with a black-and-white pole, with or without a white sign and the words \u201cPassing Place\u201d. However, not all passing places are marked, so you have to keep your eyes open for them. They can be on either side of the road. It is important to remember that in Scotland we drive on the left of the road (it\u2019s easy to forget when there\u2019s no other traffic to remind you). If the passing place is on the left pull into it; if it\u2019s on the right, stop opposite it. Don\u2019t try to pull into a passing place on your right \u2013 it\u2019s one of the best ways to cause an accident.\nDrive slowly and be patient\nNot just for other drivers\u2019s sakes but because single-track roads often lack fences and you may meet cattle, sheep, deer, horse-riders, cyclists and walkers. These roads are often so quiet that you have a good chance of seeing unusual wildlife, like pine martens. You may also meet hard hazards such as low bridges and tight bends, which can come up without warning. Should you meet a herd of animals, the safest thing to do is to pull in and switch off your engine until they have all passed. Horse-riders and cyclists should be allowed to pass you at their own pace; horses may be nervous of your large vehicle and cyclists are working much harder than you are! Think of your wait as a good opportunity to see the countryside, which can be difficult to do if you\u2019re concentrating on the road ahead.\nAnticipate when to stop\nThe general rule is that whoever reaches a passing place first stops. Look ahead as far as you can, and pull in to the passing place in good time \u2013 it will save you having to reverse. Use your indicators to show the other vehicle that you\u2019re pulling in. If they stop at the same time as you and flash their headlights twice, it usually means that they\u2019re inviting you to drive on \u2013 but this is not a hard-and-fast rule, so don\u2019t rely on it. If they only flash once, it is usually a \u201cthank you\u201d and means they know you\u2019ve stopped and they are driving on; you may also get a cheery wave as they pass you. They\u2019ll expect to be thanked if they give way to you, too.\nPassing places aren\u2019t just for oncoming traffic\nKeep an eye on your rear-view mirrors and use passing places to let any vehicles behind you overtake. The countryside may look as though nothing ever happens but a lot of people work there and they get very frustrated if they can\u2019t pass you and get on with whatever they\u2019re doing. Very often drivers who have overtaken will thank you by using their indicators or hazard warning lights for a few seconds \u2013 it doesn\u2019t mean anything\u2019s wrong.\nPassing places are required to keep the flow of traffic moving along single track roads. So however tempting it is, you shouldn\u2019t park up in passing places to take a photo of the admittedly often beautiful views! Photo credit: Tom Parnell\nRemember that passing places are not parking spaces\nPassing places aren\u2019t for stopping to take photos, have a picnic or park for the night; the clue is in the name! Nor are gateways, cattle-grid gates or other apparently-unused entries. You never know when a farmer or home-owner may need to use them \u2013 just because you can\u2019t see a house doesn\u2019t mean there isn\u2019t one along the track, just over the hill. So only park in places where other vehicles can get past you. This applies overnight, too, since a home-owner may be coming home after dark or a farmer may be making an early start. Make sure anywhere you stop for any length of time is hard ground too!\nBe prepared to reverse to a passing place\nIf an oncoming vehicle is bigger or harder to manoeuvre than yours (for example, a tractor with a trailer), then it is usually a good idea to kindly reverse to the nearest passing place. Always use a passing place, even if it\u2019s quite a long way back, rather than trying to climb up on the verge. Road edges are often soft and narrow and can hide roadside drains, and you don\u2019t want to get stuck. All our motorhomes are fitted with reversing cameras; make sure you\u2019re familiar with using your camera and reading the screen before you need it.\nIt\u2019s generally considered good manners to give way to vehicles coming up a hill towards you, particularly large and/or heavy ones. It is much easier for you to move off downhill than it would be for them to start moving uphill again.\nSingle-track roads with passing places are not everyone\u2019s cup of tea but if you want to travel in the Highlands you will certainly meet them. The trick is to be relaxed but very focussed: think ahead, take it gently and don\u2019t worry. The chances are that most of the vehicles you\u2019ll meet will be smaller than yours and will wait for you to pass them. There\u2019s no point in letting a quirk of British road-building keep you away from some of the most beautiful parts of the country.\n(Having said that, some roads are simply not suitable for large vehicles. The Bealach na Ba\u2019 pass to Applecross is one, as it is steep, narrow and very twisty. It is worth spending time poring over maps and deciding where you\u2019ll feel comfortable driving \u2013 maps are half the fun of a road-trip anyway.)\nHopefully these tips will have put your mind at ease about driving on Scotland\u2019s smaller roads. As long as you relax, take care and drive courteously, you\u2019ll have a great time. What\u2019s more, you\u2019ll see the full beauty of Scotland\u2019s lochs, mountains and coast. What better motorhome holiday could there be?",

        "raw_content": "Home / Archives / Moviemaking / Directing / At Home Behind the Camera: Actor-Turned-Director Macon Blair Talks Making I Don\u2019t Feel At Home In This World Anymore\nAt Home Behind the Camera: Actor-Turned-Director Macon Blair Talks Making I Don\u2019t Feel At Home In This World Anymore\nBy Jeff Meyers on February 21, 2017\nMacon Blair is no stranger to Sundance.\nThe actor is the childhood friend of, and a long-time collaborator with, writer-director Jeremy Saulnier, and their breakout collaboration on 2013\u2019s Blue Ruin is the stuff of indie film legend. Since then, Blair has been steadily building his reputation as a character actor and writer, securing gigs with directors like Stephen Gaghan (Syriana), Sean Baker (Tangerine), E.L. Katz (Cheap Thrills) and Steven Soderbergh.\nBut it\u2019s his feature film debut, I Don\u2019t Feel Alone In This World Anymore, that\u2019s making the biggest splash. Aside from being the only Sundance film with a proper sentence for its title, Blair\u2019s black-comedy crime thriller was awarded this year\u2019s Grand Jury Prize for U.S. Dramatic Competition at the festival.\nA Netflix Original that was sold on a pitch (you can catch it starting February 24), the film stars Sundance usual suspects, New Zealander Melanie Lynskey (Heavily Creatures, Win Win, Happy Christmas) and Elijah Wood. Lynskey is a depressed nursing assistant who is fed up with people being assholes. When her house is robbed and the police show little interest in hunting down her stolen laptop, meds and family silver service, she takes matters into her own hands. This means teaming up with her weirdo, ninja star-throwing neighbor (Wood) and diving head first into a bizarre underworld of skinheads, creepy drug addicts and a prick businessman and his overzealous bodyguard.\nThe movie\u2019s oddball mix of eccentric humor and jarring violence owes more than a little to the work of the Coen Brothers, and yet Blair still manages to find a voice of his own.\nMacon Blair. Courtesy of Sundance Institute / Photograph by Jeffrey Schifman\nJeff Meyers, Moviemaker Magazine (MM): Getting the tone of a film to work is tricky. There are a lot of films that seem to walk the line between being dark yet comedic, all while trying to be compassionate with their characters. How do you found the right tone in your film? Is it pre-production, on set or post-production where you get it on the track that it needs to be on?\nMacon Blair (MB): I think I would describe it\u2014and this is probably not going to do me any favors\u2014but it feels like some kind of Creative A.D.D. If it was going to be a bleak and dark type of story, then I would start to get antsy and want something else. Conversely, if it was a slap-stick, goofy, quirky thing I would get dissatisfied with that as well. So, I think it\u2019s about wanting to have lots of pieces of cake and eat them all at the same time, and hopefully make that palatable for the audience. Whether or not that works, I don\u2019t know. But I do know that as we were cutting the movie, there was a lot of attention paid to trying to make the shifts between the two polarities in the story as smooth as possible. We follow Ruth\u2019s side of the story, which is melancholy and whimsical, but then there\u2019s the more sinister group of characters that she\u2019s going to intersect with at some point. Making those [two arcs] feel like they inhabit the same world was something we were trying to be mindful of.\nMM: So, would you say that it was in the editing process that you worked hardest to establish your tone?\nMB: I think so, because in the writing it all made perfect sense in my head. I don\u2019t mind those kind of tonal jumps. I\u2019m drawing a blank to give you an example right now, but I kind of like it when something is going in one direction and all of a sudden it takes a real [turn toward,] \u201cI was laughing my ass off and suddenly I feel guilty for laughing.\u201d Or the reverse of that: \u201cI was feeling really depressed and suddenly my perspective shifted.\u201d I like that kind of thing. But, as we were editing, I tried to be open to input from the outside. If people said we had to smooth some of the edges out a bit, then we definitely put a lot of effort into that. Some of it was sound design and score, and some of it was maybe looking at alternate takes that strike a slightly different emotional chord. It\u2019s all subtle things. The story remained the same. The events of the story were all intact.\nMM: Is it safe to say that your partnership with Jeremy, particularly on Blue Ruin, I\u2019m thinking, became a kind of template for educating yourself as a director?\nMB: 100 percent. But our relationship goes back to childhood and because he did such an amazing job on Blue Ruin it opened a lot of doors for him that I was subsequently able to walk through as well. That one in particular [was educational], because the resources were so finite and it was so by-the-seat-of-our-pants. We went through every line of that script to make sure that we were not shooting anything frivolous. You had to be sure that you needed it because there were so few resources. It was not a case of, \u201cLet\u2019s shoot a bunch and we\u2019ll figure it out in the editing room.\u201d We tried to be as efficient and disciplined in that as possible. Most of what was on the page ended up in the movie.\nBlair in Jeremy Saulnier\u2019s Blue Ruin (2014). Courtesy of Radius\nMM: What did you take from that experience you applied to this film, and what things required you to learn a whole new skill set?\nMB: I think some of it is the way Jeremy pre-edits. He is very mindful of shooting something with the eventual edit in mind and knowing how things are going to cut together. [That mindset] was particularly helpful in the third act of this movie, which gets into a lot of running and stunts and choreography and effects. I had a great D.P. on this named Larkin Seiple, and we talked a lot about how one shot was going to cut with a subsequent shot. That is something I definitely took from Jeremy.\nOn this film, we tried to adhere to the script but there were so many performers in it who are so fun to watch. When it was appropriate, and when we didn\u2019t have to get pieces of exposition in certain ways, it was fun to let them improv a bit and bring weird stuff that I wouldn\u2019t have thought of to their characters. Christine Woods did a lot of that, and it was difficult\u2014having to be ruthless with the edit and lose a lot of stuff that would have been hilarious but also would have made the movie two hours and 15 minutes long. She can go on forever. Robert Longstreet is like that too. And Elijah and Melanie would add little things. I think Jeremy has a very focused way of looking at things and sometimes I think I am\u2014maybe to my detriment, maybe not\u2014a little less focused.\nMM: Despite the overlap in subject in style, you are an actor who became a director and Jeremy is not. Across the board, the performances in your film are great and you can feel when the director comes from an acting background. The performances start to individually pop, rather than pop in concert.\nMB: Jeremy has a very deep, technical skill set and he comes into filmmaking by way of cinematography. He is tremendous. He knows false notes in performances, and he knows that sort of thing innately, but his experience was with the technical side of things and my experience was with the acting side of things, so I was much more comfortable when we\u2019re setting up a scene and talking to the actors about emotional stuff. When it comes to where lights are going to go and what sort of lens we\u2019re going to use, that was much more of a steep learning curve for me. I was very happy to lean on technicians like Larkin. I was much more comfortable talking about performance stuff with the actors. It\u2019s fun too, because in the same way that a really skilled camera person can tweak the emotional tone of something by saying, \u201cWe\u2019re going to open the iris of these stops and use a slightly different lens,\u201d and then suddenly it feels differently, it\u2019s fun for me to do that by saying, \u201cPut a little bit more of a pause here and think about this here,\u201d or, \u201cPut your eyes on this side of the room.\u201d Little things like that which can also tweak it, that\u2019s a sandbox that is fun for me to play in.\nMelanie Lynskey in I Don\u2019t Feel at Home in This World Anymore. Photograph by Allyson Riggs\nMM: As a first-time filmmaker, what mistake did you make that you learned from and how did you fix it?\nMB: I think there\u2019s something to be said about the tonal thing. I think I could have bridged those gaps a little more organically or a little more smoothly. I don\u2019t know that I would have done anything differently, but with a little bit of distance on it I can see the flaws there and I know I was a little over-ambitious. Given the shooting schedule, we had a very finite amount of days. In general, the schedule was very humane, 29 days or something, but specifically, when we\u2019re on that island with the third act chase, that was private property and we we had a limited amount of time there; we couldn\u2019t just grab another day if we wanted it. I think I was a little overambitious on what we were trying to do and I feel like you can see that in the way the final confrontation comes together. I think we got the best possible version out of it but we had to build some of the back-and-forth in the edit just because we didn\u2019t have enough coverage, and that\u2019s on me. If I had had more experience with the realities of stunts and shooting action sequences and stuff like that, I might have pared down the script and made it something that we could have nailed a bit better even if there was less stuff going down.\nMM: That\u2019s interesting\u2014understanding the realities of production and then going, \u201cI might have needed to write to that a different way.\u201d\nMB: Yes, or I would have said, \u201cLet\u2019s get four days there instead of three.\u201d I feel like the movie is my kid and I love it unconditionally but when you have a kid, sometimes your kid is going to bite other kids at school. So, I am aware, that it is an imperfect, flawed thing, but I am proud of the work that everybody put in and I feel very grateful to have gotten the chance to do it. If I do get to do another one, those are things I will carry forward and I will try and not make those kinds of mistakes.\nMM: Anything from a technical point of view that was revelatory for you? If today you could go back to the day before production started and give you some advice, what would it be?\nMB: I think I would try and keep things moving to keep the energy up. Sometimes Larkin would have a way of looking at the sunlight and insist that it\u2019s going to look a certain way and, to me, with the naked eye, it looks just great. And there\u2019s a couple of shots in there where the sunlight is too harsh. But, frankly, it was fun to shoot! And so, he [Larkin] would be like, \u201cLet\u2019s slow down a minute,\u201d and I\u2019d say, \u201cNo, dude, this is great! Elijah\u2019s got the ninja star belt on and we\u2019re going to do this thing and stomp it out, it\u2019s going to be awesome!\u201d And we got the dailies back and we ended up having to go back and shoot it another time because the light was shifting in a certain way and it just ended up looking weird. I got ahead of myself because the stuff Elijah was doing was so funny and this banter he had with Melanie was so funny and I was so keyed in on that. And Larkin was like, \u201cThe shadows in the back of the frame look ridiculous.\u201d He was right, of course. I think in the future I may be a little more patient and take it on the chin that we may lose a little bit of momentum and we may have to get everybody back up to speed, but let\u2019s take 20 minutes and see if we can\u2019t get some clouds to come in.

        "title": "Surviving R. Kelly: An overview | THE EDIT",
        "raw_content": "Hannah , 5 weeks ago\nAt the start of the year, Surviving R. Kelly debut on Lifetime in the US spanning over 6 episodes in a docu-series. The program covers R. Kelly\u2019s career which has been riddled with \u2018rumours\u2019 of abuse, predatory behaviour and paedophillia, as survivors and members of his inner circle come forward with shocking allegations.\nSeen by many as the greatest R&B singer of all time, it appears all may not be as it seems. You could argue that these allegations may come as no surprise, after all it only takes a minute to look a just a few of his songs to notice his slight obsession with sex. Bump N Grind and Ignition probably being the most well known.\nFrom watching the docu-series it appears his obsession with young females first came to light within the wider public when he was introduced to his managers daughter, an aspiring singer named Aaliyah, who was only 15 at the time. R. Kelly later went on to marry Aaliyah, who was under age, by getting members of his inner circle to forge papers to prove that she was 18. He then went on to produce her debut album \u2018Age Ain\u2019t Nothin\u2019 But A Number\u2019 which considering the situation, definitely has a deeper meaning.\nMarrying an underage girl was only the tip of the iceberg for the reports of predatory behaviour on young girls. R. Kelly was often found loitering outside a high school, in McDonalds or shopping centres in the hope of befriending aspiring singers, who he later exploits. His former members of staff also report in the docu-series how his studio has a purpose built bedroom, where often young girls would be waiting for him.\nUnfortunately that is not the worst of it. Throughout the series there are accounts from various survivors explaining how he brainwashed them, manipulated them and kept them hostage. If they misbehaved they would go days without being given any food, have their phones confiscated or get beaten. He would often have numerous girls in his house at one time, although they never saw one another and were kept separated. The young girls had to ask permission to do daily tasks, such as go to the shop and use the bathroom, as he kept tabs on where they were 24/7.\nAlongside all the emotional, and physical abuse R. Kelly filmed numerous sexual acts with the girls, sometimes with 2 girls at once. One survivor explained the moment she was made to take part in sexual acts between R. Kelly and another girl, who she later found out was under age. The girl had been been \u2018trained\u2019 by R. Kelly and told to call him \u2018Daddy\u2019.\nThe series later explains how a tape with R. Kelly and this young girl got leaked and R. Kelly was due in court. However when the court date came around the girl and her family were nowhere to be seen with reports that R. Kelly payed them off. R. Kelly later went on to deny that it was him in the footage, trying to shift it onto his brother. It was from that point that his brother no-longer has anything to do with him.\nThese cases are only a few of the many accounts given throughout Surviving R. Kelly, with two girls reportedly still in hostage with him at the moment. Since the docu-series has aired, numerous celebrities have spoken out against the predator, as well as Spotify pulling his music from all of their playlists.

A wealth of data exists in administrative datasets, which are linked through established data-linkage infrastructure in most Australian states and territories. These linkages can support robust studies to investigate the burden of disease, the relative contribution of various aetiological agents to disease, and the effectiveness of population-based prevention policies - research that is critical to the success of current and future vaccination programs. At a recent symposium in Perth, epidemiologists, clinicians and policy makers in the infectious diseases field discussed the various benefits of, and barriers to, data-linkage research, with a focus on respiratory infection research. A number of issues and recommendations emerged. The demand for data-linkage projects is starting to outweigh the capabilities of exisiting data-linkage infrastructure. There is a need to further streamline processes relating to data access, increase data sharing and conduct nationally collaborative projects. Concerns about data security and sharing across jurisdictional borders can be addressed through multiple safe data solutions. Researchers need to do more to ensure that the benefits of linking datasets to answer policy-relevant questions are being realised for the benefit of community groups, government authorities, funding bodies and policy makers. Increased collaboration and engagement across all sectors can optimise the use of linked data to help reduce the burden of infectious diseases.\nCommunicable Diseases*\nMedical Record Linkage/methods*",

They will also be able to explain the sounds that your child can and can\u2019t hear.\nAll sounds are made up of different frequencies, measured in Hertz (Hz). The frequency of a sound affects the pitch that it\u2019s heard at. For example, the high notes on the right-hand side of a piano keyboard are examples of high-frequency sounds. If your child has a hearing test where the results are plotted on an audiogram, you\u2019ll see low to high frequencies marked along the top.\nIt\u2019s possible to have the same level of deafness for all frequencies or to have different hearing levels at different frequencies.

        "raw_content": "Honolulu, Hawaii is not just a popular holiday destination but a place frequented by those looking to have cosmetic or plastic surgery done. This tropical paradise is home to many world class plastic and cosmetic surgeons such as Dr. Michael Pasquale. Dr. Pasquale who is amongst the few surgeons who has completed his full residency in plastic surgery and gone on to do a 2-year training certificate in cosmetic surgery from NYU Downtown, Manhattan, where he worked under New York\u2019s finest plastic and cosmetic surgeons. Cosmetic surgery has made it possible for people to make subtle and sometimes major alterations in the way they appear. The eyelids that protect the eyes and also set them to their best advantage can also be changed in their appearance. Lower eyelid surgery is available in Honolulu, Hawaii and is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries that people opt for. Lower eyelid surgery makes it possible for individuals to get rid of the puffy and baggy look that their eyes have due to excess fat, skin and muscle in the area.\nWhile some people have inherited puffy lower eyelids others may have them due to the changes that time makes in the skin. Often the skin loses its elasticity and is unable to effectively support the fat and skin in the area; thus giving the eyelids a heavy and exhausted look. Lower eyelid surgery cannot remove dark circles or laughter lines unless they are on the part of the skin that is being removed.\nProcedure for Lower Eyelid Surgery in Honolulu, Hawaii\nAt our clinic at Honolulu, Hawaii it is ensured that the clients are aware of all aspects of the surgery being undertaken, including the risk of complications. The lower eyelid surgery is performed by a cosmetic or plastic surgeon; and selecting a surgeon who is qualified and has plenty of experience tremendously reduces the risk of complications. The surgery for lower eyelid is performed under anesthesia and can take about 1-3 hours. The surgeon makes incisions just under the eyelashes and removes the excess skin, fat and muscles and then closes the incisions with fine sutures. After healing the scars from the lower eyelid surgery are almost invisible. In cases where only fat needs to be removed from the lower eyelid and no skin or muscle is to be taken out a transconjunctival blepharoplasty is performed. In this case the incision is made on the inside of the lower eyelid and thus the scar form the surgery is not visible. Lower eyelid surgery can be combined with other procedures such as a facelift.\nRecovery from the Lower Eyelid Surgery in Honolulu, Hawaii\nAfter the lower eyelid patient finds the eyes swollen and bruised and this discomfort can be eased by prescribed medication and by cold compression. The eyes are bandages for a few days and the patient advised to lie in an elevated position. Once the bandages are taken off the cosmetic surgeon may recommend eye drops or an ointment to keep the skin in the area from getting dry. The eye would be sensitive to light and need to be protected. When going out in the sunlight sun glasses should be worn and a special sunscreen for eyes should be applied. In about 10 days the patient can gone back to his normal routine but avoid strenuous activity and exercise. Honolulu, Hawaii is a great place to have lower eyelid surgery done and recover in the wonderful climate and scenic beauty that it provides.",

        "title": "Mapping new industries with a machine learning mindset | Nesta",
        "raw_content": "Finding innovation needles in big data haystacks\nNew technologies are an elusive object of desire for research and innovation (R&I) policymakers. There are three reasons for this interest:\nEconomies of Entry: Those companies and locations that first gain a comparative strength in a new technology can be hard to dislodge by competitors, and therefore end up capturing much of the market.[i]\nEmbeddedness: Some of these new technologies have \u2018general purpose\u2019 aspects - they can be applied in other sectors to make them more innovative, productive and competitive.\nEmergence Failures: Early in the lifecycle of a technology, there will be uncertainty about its business model and skills needs, which could hamper or even abort its development. Policy can help avoid this situation by, for example, funding testbeds and demonstrators, providing access to finance, tackling skills shortages etc.\nBut how do we find evidence about the state of a new sector, its situation and challenges? Unfortunately, this is not easy. The frameworks and categories (industrial codes) we use to measure the economy fail to capture new sectors, so official data is not very useful for measuring them. The resulting lack of evidence hinders policymaking at all stages of the policy cycle, making it hard to understand the current situation of a new sector, identify stakeholders to engage with to develop suitable policies, and measure the impact of those new interventions.\nThe immersive economy, including companies developing technology, content and services related to virtual and augmented reality are an excellent example of a high-potential area with multiple applications (from media and games to education and manufacturing) where the UK is perceived to have a strong comparative advantage, but where evidence about the situation of the sector is sorely lacking.\nToday, Innovate UK is launching a report we worked on that seeks to start addressing this issue, hopefully providing a better evidence base for the raft of policies being put in place to strengthen immersive in the UK, not least the Industrial Strategy \u2018Audiences of the Future' challenge. [ii]\nYou can download the report and read more about its findings here. In this blog we wanted to \u2018get under the hood\u2019 of the project, and show you some of the machine learning pipelines we developed to tackle the challenge of finding an innovative sector in a big data haystack, and generate relevant information for policymakers.\nThis is a (machine learning) pipe(line)\nMachine learning (ML) is a discipline and ensemble of algorithms used to generate predictions from data. Supervised machine learning bases these predictions on examples (labelled datasets where we train in algorithm to find what characteristics of an observation predict its label) and unsupervised machine learning bases predictions on similarities between observations (that is, it puts them together in groups or 'clusters' we may be interested in).\nAt Nesta\u2019s innovation mapping team, we use machine learning all the time to find innovative sectors in the big data haystack we work with (there is no way we could check every observation to find those we are interested in). As we will see, this requires creating pipelines that connect datasets in interesting ways, and a detective mindset where you think of the data you already have as a source of clues you can follow-up in other datasets.\nWe will go through some stages of these pipelines in turn.\nUsing web text to find immersive companies\nSince we do not have an industrial code for immersive, it is not possible to measure the sector with official statistics. There are trade bodies and industry networks (notably, Immerse UK, who commissioned the research) but we cannot be sure about their coverage. We follow the machine learning mindset and think of those industry networks as labelled datasets of relevant observations: we want to find others like them.\nThis is where Glass comes in. It is a big data start-up we partnered with for the project who \u2018read\u2019 data from hundreds of thousands of UK business websites. Glass trained a machine learning model on this data to identify which terms in a business website are highly predictive of whether a company self-identifies as immersive or not (based on the labelled dataset) and then use the model to predict other organisations likely to be immersive. This supervised approach was enhanced with a \u2018keyword search\u2019 for companies that mentioned immersive related terms in their website, and validated by our friends at Immerse UK.[iii] Ultimately, this analysis gave us a list of around 2,000 individual organisations in the UK, together with metadata from Glass \u2014 such as their sector, their address (based on postcodes from the website) and other data from their websites \u2014 which became useful later when predicting organisation size, such as size of the website, number of inbound and outbound links, number of personal profiles and job ads on the site.\nUsing a business survey to generate a labelled dataset\nUnfortunately, web data only takes you so far when you want to generate policy relevant information. Important financial information about a company (how many people it employs and its turnover, which we need in order to estimate the size of the immersive sector) is generally missing from websites. It is also hard to use web information to estimate a company\u2019s level of involvement in immersive, something important for us given that, for example, many large manufacturers and brands are experimenting with virtual and augmented reality for prototyping and marketing, but this only involves a small fraction of their massive workforces and budgets.\nIt is also difficult to use web data to measure perceived drivers and success of barriers for a business, yet that information is relevant for policymakers who want to boost growth drivers and remove barriers. Sometimes, asking people about these things is the best strategy, and this is precisely what we did with MTM London, who set up an online survey targeted at the 2,000 organisations we had identified in the previous stage (another connection in the pipeline).\nWe surveyed all these organisations, receiving 278 unique responses with rich information about the situation of the immersive economy in the UK which is discussed in detail in the report. But not only that \u2013 the survey also worked as a \u2018labelled dataset\u2019 that we used to generate predictions about the level of immersive engagement, size and turnover of those organisations that did not respond to the survey (the diagram below presents the logic of this process). The predictors we used for this had to be shared across \u2018labelled\u2019 and \u2018unlabelled\u2019 datasets, and included website information from Glass, and other company metadata from Companies House (which we also merged with our data \u2014 more connections in the pipeline!)\nOne risk with machine learning is that the model you train learns every little quirk of your training set but does not generalise well outside (in other words, it \u2018overfits\u2019). We sought to avoid that pitfall using cross-validation, a standard approach that splits the data into \u2018folds\u2019, trains models in all folds except one and then predicts the results for the left-out fold. The chosen model is the one that, on average, generalises better from seen data to unseen data, which is what we want.\nWe used this strategy to predict whether organisations are \u2018immersive specialists\u2019 or not (that is, whether they generate more than 50% of their turnover in immersive), and their turnover and employment size-band. We used all this information to produce the estimates about the size of the sector and its economic scale that we present in the report.\nUsing Natural Language Processing and clustering to find public grants for immersive\nIn the project, we also wanted to measure the levels of public funding for immersive R&D in open grants databases such as the Gateway to Research (which contains information about Research Council and Innovate UK research grants), Innovate UK\u2019s transparency dataset, and information from the European Union\u2019s Horizon 2020 programme to support R&D in the EU (CORDIS). This would help us get a sense of the extent to which research funders are already in the case, supporting innovation in the immersive economy.\nWe combined data from the sources above into a single dataset with 74,000 projects. Now what we wanted to do was identify those related to immersive. Since reading their descriptions was out of the question, we got machine learning: enter Clio.\nClio is an information retrieval system that Kostas in the team is working on, and which can be used to query innovation databases. Our assumption here is that when a user queries an innovation dataset, they are interested in a wider set of results including items related to their initial query. This is a good assumption to make if a non-Immersive expert is interested in finding projects using terms that experts in the field use but she is not familiar with. For example, if they are looking for augmented reality projects, we assume they are also interested in virtual reality and mixed reality projects, as well as other terms which are semantically close (i.e. which have a similar meaning). This is a great example of an unsupervised ML problem: we want to find clusters of terms which are similar to the one we started with.\nTo do this, we train word2vec, a text mining model on the project descriptions. Word2vec measures similarities between words based on the context in which they appear. Continuing with our example, \u2018augmented reality\u2019 will appear close to \u2018virtual reality\u2019 and \u2018mixed reality\u2019 in the representation of the text that word2vec creates. We use this to identify the 20 most similar words to our initial query. We then reduce the list\u2019s length by removing very common and very rare words.\nWe then use the resulting list to do a keyword search in the project descriptions and return those projects mentioned in at least one of the queries. In order to rank this list, we assume that the project containing the most queries is the most relevant one and the rest should be sorted based on their similarity to it. To measure this, we find the vector representation of documents using doc2vec, which measures the similarities between documents along the same lines as word2vec, and sort the results using the KD Tree algorithm. This is another example of unsupervised ML in action (see below for another diagram)\nConclusion: Combining data ready-mades and data custom-mades to inform R&I policy\nIn Bit by Bit, his excellent introduction to research methods for digitally-enhanced social science, Matthew Salganik distinguishes between data \u2018ready-mades\u2019 that researchers encounter \u2018in the wild\u2019 and repurpose to address their research questions, and data \u2018custom-mades\u2019 that researchers design with the specific goal of addressing their questions. In our Immersive Economy project, business websites would be a data ready-made and the survey of immersive companies we ran, a data custom-made.\nSalganik points out that some of the most exciting opportunities for research today involve creative combinations of data ready-mades and custom-mades. A machine learning mindset for prediction, classification and matching is the glue for those connections. We believe that this approach could be applied to many other sectors beyond Immersive, helping us to generate reliable information about emerging industries to inform better R&I policies.\nDrop us a line at [email protected] or [email protected] if you want to find out more, and come to the Nesta Sparks on New Frontiers for Innovation Data on the 30th of May to learn about our methods and projects in a bit more detail.\nListings image by Jeremy Perkins on Unsplash\n[i] There are many ways in which this can play out. For example, there may be \u2018learning by doing\u2019 where the leading company becomes more efficient as it learns how to develop the technology, or \u2018network effects\u2019 if it sets up a platform where the larger the installed user base is, the bigger its value for new joiners. Localised knowledge spillovers between companies located close to each other could make it hard for other places to compete.\n[ii] The research was commissioned by Immerse UK and the Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN), and the research team also included Glass, a business analytics start-up, and MTM London, a creative industries consultancy.\n[iii] These terms were extracted from a set of immersive tech meetups we identified in a previous project mapping the creative industries in the UK.\nPosted by Thad Kerosky\nI believe the corrected URL for \"Embeddedness\" is https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/030440769401598T and/or (ungated) http://www.tau.ac.il/~manuel/pdfs/general_purpose.pdf\nPosted by Juan Mateos-Garcia\nThanks Thad, will fix this!\nMapping a Creative Nation\nWhere are the UK creative industries?

It is involved in almost every bodily movement and any disruption in its functioning can be disabling for an individual. This type of injury will certainly bring a person's life to a screeching halt, ruining any current and future plans. Full recovery is uncertain and fraught with medical complexities that can baffle doctors and specialists.\nSpinal cord injuries are most frequently the result of a serious vehicular accident. They are also caused by slip and fall accidents, work-related accidents, sports injuries or criminal acts. If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal injury, you need the support of an experienced New Hampshire personal injury attorney to help protect your rights and to fight on your behalf for the compensation you are going to need in the coming months and years.\nThe Devastating Impact of Spinal Cord Injuries\nThe small bones of the spine, the vertebrae, normally protect the spinal cord but they can injure it when they are fractured, dislocated or damaged. The spinal cord is the primary nerve channel in the body and when it cannot send nerve messages anymore, horrible consequences develop. A person can experience loss of motor functions, loss of feeling or sensation, may not be able to voluntarily move limbs, and may suffer partial or complete paralysis. These are terrible costs and if you or a loved one is suffering in this way, you have our compassion. We want to help you recover as much as possible.\nMulvey, Cornell & Mulvey has vast experience in representing victims of catastrophic injuries, and we are prepared to investigate the circumstances that caused the spinal cord injury and fight for you before insurance companies and in court, if necessary.

What some call real \"face time\" is diminishing.\nSympathy is extended to bereaved families by leaving messages on funeral home Web sites.\nOffice workers e-mail fellow workers sitting in the next cubicle.\nPeople break up relationships by e-mail and text messages. There is so little personal contact.\nI know I'm guilty of not writing many letters and I should make a better effort to call and speak with friends and relatives.\nI recently had a long chat -- 119 minutes -- with a former neighbor now living in North Carolina. We have these marathon calls every now and then catching up on what our kids and grandkids are up to. She was bemoaning the fact that her son's girlfriend simply has no conversational skills -- it's e-mail and texting for that generation.\nNow with Slydial, you never have to talk directly to a person.\nSlydial lets you leave a voice mail message knowing the person you're calling won't answer because it goes directly to voice mail -- the phone never actually rings.\nAccording to its Web site, Slydial is for \"anyone who is short on time, wants to avoid an awkward conversation, or doesn't want to bother someone, but needs to leave them a voice mail.\"\nI don't want to give up technological advances, but hearing about things like Slydial sometimes make me long for the \"good old days\" when the pace of life was slower and people spoke directly to each other.\nBy the way, if the pop-folk music of the 1960s is part of your good old days, you are in for a treat. The New Christy Minstrels are coming to New Milford.\nIt's been more than 40 years since they won a Grammy for their debut recording, \"Presenting The New Christy Minstrels.\"\nThere have been lots of changes over the years, but they are still singing and delighting old and new fans. Several original members appear with the group, including founder Randy Sparks.\nOn Friday, Oct. 3, they will be at New Milford High School for a 7:30 p.m. concert to benefit The Children's Center.\nTurn off your cell phones, help a worthy cause, and go back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, if only for an evening.\nFor ticket information call (860) 354-1883.\nwww.thenewchristyminstrels.com/",

        "raw_content": "Kellerman, Calm and Composed\nOctober 27, 2008 Umar Hussain\nScott Roeder | Staff Photographer\nWhen thinking of UC Irvine women\u2019s volleyball, the first name that might come to mind is sophomore Kari Pestolesi, and rightfully so. But there is another name that is probably just as good, if not better, and that is senior outside hitter Lauren Kellerman.\nWhile Pestolesi smashed onto the NCAA volleyball scene last year with one of the best seasons by any freshman ever on campus, Kellerman was doing what she usually does \u2013 keeping up with the best.\nIn 2005, she made the All Big West freshman team and was second on the team with 309 kills.\nIn 2006, she made the All Big West First Team and this time lead the team in kills with 480.\nIn 2007, she again made the Big West First Team and made two all-tournament team selections.\nNow in 2008, Kellerman is second on the team with 228 kills and third with 162 digs. More importantly, she is coming up big when the team needs her the most.\nEarlier this month, Kellerman put together one of her best performances as she lead UCI to an upset victory over rival and 24th-ranked Long Beach State. In the win, which she considers her favorite, she recorded a season-high of 21 kills and topped the team with 13 digs, all while only committing three errors and hitting an impressive .375 on the match.\n\u201cWe had never beat Long Beach State in my four years here. I really wanted to beat them bad, and we went out and did it,\u201d Kellerman said.\nKellerman has propelled herself to become one of the leaders on the team. The most decorated and experienced of her teammates, she chooses to lead by example, and Coach Charlie Brande cannot stop raving about her.\n\u201cShe\u2019s a silent leader; she leads by example. She tries to win everything she can and isn\u2019t as vocal about it as some of the others, but is very much a leader in that she takes care of the successes,\u201d Brande said.\nOne would assume that a player of Kellerman\u2019s caliber would come from a volleyball-rich family as did Pestolesi. However, Kellerman was somewhat pushed into playing the sport.\n\u201cIn eighth grade I was the same height and weight I am now. The coach kept asking me to play and I was like \u2018No, thanks,\u2019 but all my friends were playing. So, I tried and fell in love,\u201d Kellerman said.\nShe says her mom is \u201cextremely un-athletic\u201d and her father and brothers have no volleyball background whatsoever. In fact, all of her brothers played water polo in high school.\nWhile it was her height that got her into the sport, it was her smarts and intelligence that made her the type of player she is today.\nAfter her freshman year of high school, Kellerman decided to take volleyball even more seriously and did so by improving her once atrocious back-row skills.\n\u201cI got in the gym with my club coach, and really worked on playing back row. I was not tall enough to play middle, and if you want to play in college you have to be a complete player,\u201d Kellerman said.\nNot only did she improve, but also became the best at her school. She holds the records for most kills and digs at Escondido High School, and has a plethora of awards and medals at home to show for varsity and club successes.\nWhile Kellerman is fundamentally sound with her outside hitter position, it is her intelligence that separates her from the rest.\n\u201cHer intellect while attacking the ball is above all the people we play against. She has a great deal of understanding of where to put the ball off the block, or what to do to score. Her intellect is one of the highest levels of anyone we\u2019ve had here at UCI,\u201d Brande said.\nWatch Kellerman on the court and you will notice her relaxed attitude. She is a student of the game, watching the other team and preparing to adapt. When she is ready, she will attack and tap into her competitive, aggressive side.\nKellerman has a very \u201cgo with the flow\u201d attitude on and off the court. Whether it\u2019s preparing for a game-winning kill, or cooking up her favorite salmon dish, Kellerman is always focused on the task at hand.\n\u201cOn the court, Lauren is daring. She has a fearless approach. Lauren isn\u2019t afraid to make a mistake. Even in a close game, she\u2019ll take a risky swing and I love that. I think that mentality is crucial in this game,\u201d said setter Taryn Robertson.\nKellerman has no favorite songs, no favorite movies, no favorite anything. Instead, she just enjoys life and its simplicity. She is always thinking about what is coming and completing the task at hand. She doesn\u2019t concern herself with worrying about the past or looking too far ahead into the future. She is going to Rome to study abroad in the winter and spring, and doesn\u2019t know what to expect. She doesn\u2019t even care right now.\nShe has one goal in mind these days, and that is winning the Big West.",

        "raw_content": "The folks that own title to the Game Which Shall Not Be Named are all over the news about their nonprofit status. Despite the link-bait headlines and self-righteous outrage, there really isn\u2019t a problem with the National Football League being a nonprofit.\nThe NFL is a trade association, not a \u201ccharity.\u201d It is a 501 (c) 6 nonprofit organization. It is not a 501 (c) 3 organization, which would in fact be a bit outrageous. The difference is \u201c(c) 3\u201d nonprofits are institutions of public charity, and the other 29 classes of nonprofits (See Nonprofitiness\u2122 for more on this) are not the same. Trade associations like the NFL cannot grant tax-deductions for donors, for example. Yes, the association doesn\u2019t pay any income tax \u2013 but it also cannot distribute any profits. Any profits it makes have to be put back into the use of the trade association, so mostly the NFL just makes the money it needs to protect the trade association from small blogs that might use their trademarked words (which this one will assiduously avoid).\nThe big money does get taxed. It just doesn\u2019t get \u201ccorporate\u201d taxed. Yes, there is a huge amount of money in the NFL, but it goes down the food chain to the players, the teams, and even the very highly paid executives for the NFL itself \u2013 all of which pay taxes. Any reasonable person can make an argument that the pay of NFL executives is too high, but this is hardly unique to the nonprofit status of the organization, and that pay would all be tax-deductible it if were a for-profit league anyway. So in either case, it wouldn\u2019t have been subjected to corporate tax.\nThis is all beside the point. Anyone choosing to get outraged about the inappropriate amount of money put into sports ball will find an ally here. The real point isn\u2019t the tax status of the business, but what else can and should we be doing to bring more resources to the important social work which needs to be done. Corporate structures will come and go (such as the benefit corporation) but community good will still be a need. If you want to get some additional resources for that work, don\u2019t focus on someone else\u2019s tax structure. Go to all those big companies advertising and tell them how you can bring them value in supporting your charity more than repeating the same commercial on a football game a thousand times.\nThe tax structure of the NFL isn\u2019t worth your time. Promoting a different choice about where to spend time, money and energy is where the \u201creal\u201d nonprofits are going to find value.\nPosted in Communications, Content | Tagged communications, content management, philanthropy, strategy | Leave a reply",

This year, over 800 people registered to attend the afternoon with over 75 hoping for a free spot on a waiting list.\nSince 2013, thousands of medical and health professionals, athletes, coaches and community members have attended See the Line (a 10-year initiative) events, which have also included a concussion education workshop, a continuing medical education seminar, and an exclusive evening event.\nCouture, who suffered two concussions during his Ontario Hockey League playing days, hosted his first annual All-in For Brain Research charity casino fundraiser later in the evening after the symposium.\nThe night brought out several athletes and personalities, including fellow NHLPA members Drew Doughty, Jamie McGinn, Dylan DeMelo, and Chis Tierney.\nThank you @@Logancouture @@jfischersports and many more for putting together an amazing event and for an even better cause!#ALLIN2017 #ldnont pic.twitter.com/YXhrazAuGc\n\u2014 \u2728AlyshaNewman\u2728 (@@alysha_newman94) August 17, 2017\nAll proceeds go to support concussion awareness, research and rehabilitation programs run by the Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic and Western University.\nThere was a time when Couture, who had originally hoped ticket sales would reach 300, wasn\u2019t quite certain how the event would go over.\nA sellout of 560 tickets sold, along with an estimate of over $100,000 raised, left the 28-year-old humbled.\n\u201cI\u2019ve had a lot of help and support along the way,\u201d said Couture. \u201cThere has been a lot of great collaboration since day one.

        "raw_content": "Home About Us News & Events News Tensions and Paradoxes In the Singapore's Education System\nTensions and Paradoxes In the Singapore's Education System\nEducation Week (Online)\nBy: Assoc Prof Ng Pak Tee\nOne of the hottest topics in Singapore today is the change in the scoring system of the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE), the national examination that determines the type of secondary schools that a student may get into after primary school education. The Prime Minister announced in August of this year that the current PSLE T-score, a score based on how well a child does relative to his or her peers, would be replaced by grades. In the current system, even a single point in the T-score makes a difference in a child's position in a national ranking list for admission to secondary school. This sorts children very clinically and adds pressure on them to strive for a higher score in the PSLE. In the new system, children who achieve scores within a certain band will be given the same grade. They will not be differentiated by the minor differences in their scores. This new system is expected to be implemented in a few years' time.\nSome parents and other stakeholders welcomed the move, agreeing that a system based on grades rather T-scores would reduce stress on children and promote holistic education. Others worried that this would lead to a less transparent system and were more interested in how the Ministry of Education (MOE) would be able to differentiate two students with the same grades when ranking and sorting students for secondary schools' admission.\nApart from school admission based on T-scores, there is an ongoing Direct School Admission (DSA) process started in 2004 by the MOE that allows secondary schools to provisionally admit some students with high achievement or talent, prior to the release of their PSLE scores. In announcing the change to the PSLE T-score system, the Prime Minister also announced that the criteria for DSA would be broadened to include qualities like character and leadership. This was supposed to recognize more areas of success and bring about more diversity in secondary schools.\nBut, even the DSA changes worried some parents, who raised questions, such as: How do we determine good character in the admission process to good schools? Who will make this judgment and can this be done fairly? Should a kind act motivated by external recognition be judged the same as the same act out of compassion for others? How does one tell the difference? Will the DSA changes encourage children (or their parents) to view kindness as a transaction, doing good deeds for the sake of gain?\nThese are good questions. The root of the issue is not just about fair assessment in an area that is hard to measure. It is about parents competing to get their children into \"good\" schools. Therefore, education reform regarding examinations and school selection in Singapore is often a double-edge sword, especially during the initial phase of change. On one hand, we send signals to broaden the definition of success. On the other hand, we may have inadvertently set up more areas for competition.\nThe Singapore story illustrates how education reform is seldom, if ever, merely an education issue. It is deeply entwined with societal culture. The PSLE reform is not going to have an easy solution that satisfies everyone. All alternatives have their benefits and consequences. But, the debate is a process of national soul searching about what education really means to us as a society. Admittedly, there are tensions. These tensions will move the education system to a new state, one that will guide the next generation.\nA word for educators: School practitioners will be increasingly called upon to make judgment calls on policy implementation as education becomes more complex. As we manage the tensions and navigate the waters of educational change, it is crucial that we reach deep within ourselves to make these calls according to our professional values and ethos. Policies may point the direction of change, but they have little meaning in themselves unless wisely interpreted and implemented by committed school practitioners. As I participate in the development of principals and teacher leaders in Singapore, I often remind them to keep their teachers' heartbeat strong. It is good for educational leaders to have the skills of a CEO; but, it is critical that they have the heartbeat of a caring teacher, one that puts the learning and holistic development of students at the center of all that they do. We have to build our inner world, so that we may shape our outer world. This is critical, if we want to play our part in developing a culture that is not narrowly focused on testing our children, but on helping them to learn and enjoy learning, whichever school they may be admitted to and whatever educational pathway they choose.\nIn a world where change is the only constant, the most significant change may be to find those constants that should not change. What, to you, may some of these constants be?\nSource: Education Week (Online)",

I'll bring down the the paypal button. However, if you still wish to donate to help ease our medical bill, please email me at nigel@urban-rehab.org\nDear readers and internet\nMy name is Nigel, and I am the founder and writer of this blog. You may not know me, but I would like to ask for your help to support the medical treatment of my father.\nHe is fighting for his life in Gleneagles Hospital in Singapore, in ICU Room 2 at this very moment. He is Malaysian and doesn't have insurance to fall back on, and we don't have that much cash.\nAs the cost is quite high, we are trying to raise funds for his medical, to be able to save his life. If you'd like to donate, please click below here to go to my PayPal page. If you prefer to wire transfer, wire transfer details are at the bottom of this post ya. I apologize in advance, PayPal button doesn't allow me to put an open amount for you to choose from...if you'd like to send a different amount, please wire instead ya. Thank you in advance.\nBefore I ask more, I would like to share with you who my father is. He is truly a trooper, a hero. He was born in a very poor family. His father had four wives, and that's why he had never had much time with his own father.\nBeing from a poor family, he never had the opportunity to study for his university, his single mom couldn't afford it. Even though he got a scholarship in New Zealand, his mother couldn't afford to buy him the plane ticket to fly there, though the university had accepted him.\nUndaunted, he chose to work full time as a medical sales representative and study part time. His sister shared with us recently how he would live on very cheap local bread (called \"roti prata\" or \"roti canai\"), do his sales, and then come home to study. He is a very industrious man, never complaining about his plight.\nI think, that is my greatest pain. That he never did complained about his life, no matter how tough it is.\nHe is the single breadwinner of the household, with 4 children. With no education, he worked his way up being an income tax officer with Malaysian Income Tax Department, and stayed with them since he was 22 years old. At this time of publishing, he would have worked with and for them for 37 years.\nAccording to the respiratory and ICU specialist, he likely have gotten the bacteria months ago, and the problem was compounded due to a series of lung infections and urinary tract infections, which decreased his immunity. He was also coughing for a long period of time, but he refused to see a doctor nor take leave, because he is retiring soon and wanted to reserve his annual leave to encash for his retirement at the end of this year.\nYes, he's that sort of man.\nThe quiet, uncomplaining man who will just soldier on. According to my mom, he is trying his best to conserve as much as he can so he can retire without problems. Over the past 2 years, he had been making preparations for his retirement, and his most famous statement when mom told him to keep working was\nIt's my privilege to retire.\nHe has been working all his life, bringing up 4 children and one wife, and now he is going to retire, he's fighting for his life. And he hasn't had a chance to truly live, and he may very well not survive.\nThe Medical Problem\nHe has been intubated since 10th May 2014, in a private hospital in Johor Bahru, but by 18th May 2014, we couldn't take it anymore, and scheduled an international transfer to Singapore private hospital. There were no availabilities in the public hospitals, so we had no choice.\nActually, we received a call from Dr Su who explained the situation and what we can do to potentially save my father's life. As he is aware of the costs, he said that they will work on a limited budget approach, and use sparingly whatever needs to be done.\nThe doctors are working to save his lungs...and then he developed pulmonary embolism. Working on that...and now he has a full blown sepsis, with kidney dysfunction. Any more dysfunction...and he will have very low chances.\nFinancial Assistance To Save My Dad\nThe doctors are saying that to give up now because we don't want dialysis or more cost, is not an ideal solution; as they have had patients on dialysis surviving, assuming nothing worse happens such as more organs dysfunction. The doctors said that if in the event they think that they cannot do more, they will inform us.\nThey recommend us to try dialysis first, his lungs should improve over the next couple of days, and we take it one step a time. This will increase our daily costs about SGD 1500 - SGD3500 per day, but we'll know in a couple of days if papa still has a chance to live.\nAs our costs are increasing, we would like to ask for financial aid, which we will send out in a separate SMS/WhatsApp/Email. There is no obligations to give, but if you do want to, we appreciate all forms and amounts.\nThe amounts received will be used for\nmedical & rehabilitation treatment (for now and ongoing, if papa survives). Current estimated costings will be SGD 250,000.00 and above.\nif papa doesn't survive, the amount will go to managing funeral-related expenses, and remaining to his wife (our mom).\nloans will be repaid as soon as possible (I will meet/discuss with those who had extended credit to us)\nPlease keep praying for us, and thank you.\nOn behalf of Chua Family\nPlease help me save my dad.\nMy dad and mom, during happier and healthier times.\nUpdate 27th May 2014 - my father has passed away on the 24th May 2014...he has fought the good fight, and now he has been called to be with the Lord. As saddened as I and the entire family can be, we understand that God's ways are always higher than our ways, and perhaps we can slowly accept the passing of this wonderful man I call father.",

In a statement released by his family, they said: \u201cLarry was back in his beloved Dallas, re-enacting the iconic role he loved most. Larry\u2019s family and close friends had joined him in Dallas for the Thanksgiving holiday.\n\u201cWhen he passed, he was surrounded by loved ones. It was a peaceful passing, just as he had wished for. The family requests privacy at this time.\u201d\nHagman was born in Texas but later moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in the entertainment industry by starring in musical productions, but made the move into television with a role in US comedy show I Dream Of Jeanie.\nIn 1978, he started his most famous role as oil tycoon JR Ewing in Dallas and, despite his villainous character, became one of the show\u2019s most recognisable and best-loved characters. He also later went on to star in films including Nixon and Primary Colours and, earlier this year, revived his role as JR for the reboot of Dallas.\nIn 1992, however, he was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver due to his hard-drinking lifestyle \u2013 at one point, he was said to be regularly consuming five bottles of champagne a day \u2013 and revealed in October last year that he had been diagnosed with a form of cancer.\nHis Dallas co-star Linda Gray, who played Sue Ellen, paid tribute to Hagman saying: \u201cLarry Hagman was my best friend for 35 years. He was the Pied Piper of life and brought joy to everyone he knew. He was creative, generous, funny, loving and talented and I will miss him enormously. He was an original and lived life to the full.\u201d\nActress Victoria Principal, meanwhile, who played Pam Ewing, said: \u201cHe is unforgettable, and irreplaceable, to millions of fans around the world, and in the hearts of each of us who was lucky enough to know and love him.\u201d",

A number of community working groups were formed, focusing on topics like agriculture, recreation, small business, and conservation with a larger goal of strengthening the Pownal community and promoting economic development.\nThis summer's events are the result of a joint effort between the town's agricultural and small business groups, as well as the regional non-profit organization Northshire Grows, funded largely by a \"Small and Inspiring\" grant from the Vermont Community Foundation. Throughout the season the series, which organizers hope will become an annual tradition, will work to introduce visitors and locals alike to Pownal's agricultural heritage, landscape, and economy.\n\"We're working across the board to promote our local farms, and so far our focus has been on collaboration and cross-marketing,\" said Shannon Barsotti of Longview Farm, a leader within the Empower Pownal initiative. \"Many of us have our own customer base, and a lot of people sell at farmers markets, but we're hoping to market them together to be more connected as a community and get more people coming to Pownal.\"\nBarsotti hopes that the effort will work symbiotically with economic development initiatives in both Williamstown, Mass. and Bennington while also allowing farmers \u2014 many with heavy workloads \u2014 to benefit from collective marketing efforts.\n\"This is a great way to support local farms and learn about ways to buy local,\" Barsotti said. \"We'd really like to showcase Pownal's beauty, and educate people about our farms and how you can buy fresh produce from them.\"\nThe series will kick off at Barsotti's Longview Farm on Saturday, May 19 with a pasture walk from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. During the event visitors will have the opportunity to learn about rotational grazing, cuddle with baby lambs and chicks, plant seeds, and enjoy a walk with afternoon snacks. A rain date is set for the same time on May 20.\n\"We have these little lambs, and it's just beautiful in the springtime for a pasture walk,\" Barsotti said. \"There's not much better than bringing your kids and cuddling a baby lamb in the beautiful spring weather.\"\nA Fourth of July celebration, featuring a community picnic at the Pownal American Legion, will follow on July 4 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. At the picnic participants will learn about the Vermont Veteran Farmers Coalition as well as local food initiatives at the Vermont Veterans' Home in Bennington, enjoy a homemade lunch featuring products from Pownal farms, and participate in some old fashioned fun and games.\n\"We're planning to serve local food to highlight our farms, as well as playing some games outside for kids and families,\" Barsotti said. \"Northshire Grows is our fiscal sponsor, and they are doing so much great work to get fresh food \u2014 and even food grown by veterans \u2014 into the veterans' home.\"\nHoppy Valley Farm will then host a tour of their hops yard on Aug. 4 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., to educate visitors about the many varieties of hops grown onsite. Samples from Bright Ideas Brewery, which utilize the farm's hops, and Hoppy Valley condiments will also be available.\n\"Hoppy Valley is such an eye-catching sight with their tepees, and Peter [Hopkins] makes some great condiments that will be available to taste,\" Barsotti added.\nOrganic vegetable production will be the next lesson on the agenda, with a farm tour and dinner at Wildstone Farm on Aug. 9 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.\n\"John and Joy [Primmer] have been organic vegetable farming for a long time, so they're well versed in organic growing and how to extend the season,\" Barsotti said. \"It will be peak vegetable season, and I think this would be interesting not just for people who want to support farms, but also for people who garden or homestead.\"\nFinally, the series will conclude on Sept. 22 with a Harvest Festival to be held at the Harwood Homestead from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.\n\"Harwood Homestead is at a beautiful spot on Cedar Hill Road with all of these old barns that are great for a festival,\" Barsotti said. \"We'd like to combine that with a farm market, so local craft and food producers can sell as well. We'd also like to do a dinner or pig roast if possible.\"\nBarsotti hopes that the series is the first of many, and notes that the events represent only a small sample of Pownal's agricultural landscape.\n\"Our main goal is just to get people onto these farms so they can learn about what's happening locally,\" Barsotti explained. \"We hope to make this an annual way to highlight our farms, which is why we're charging a small admission fee. This first year we have money from the Vermont Community Foundation, so whatever we make will work towards keeping this going.\"\nEach event is family friendly, and costs $5 per person though children under 12 are free. For more information, contact Shannon Barsotti at sbarsottivt@gmail.com or 413-346-7166.\nHoppy Valley's Hop Yards are easily seen from Route 7",

The park has plenty of space for parking.\nDirections to Take-out: Take-out is located 1 mile east of Bayview Road off Highway W on Riverside Drive. There is minimal space for parking on the shoulder.\nThis short wilderness paddle beings in the clear waters of Presque Isle Lake. Put in at the boat landing, paddle south around the first peninsula, past the first bay opening, and around the second peninsula before heading north into the second bay. The Presque Isle River begins and civilization ends as you pass under Bayview Road/Hawk Drive.\nThe Presque Isle River is rather deep throughout and features a light current as it meanders North toward the town of Presque Isle. The river is home to many aquatic plants and animals, including otter, muskrat, and beaver. Evidence of beaver activity is first encountered about a half mile into the river, where a traversable dam is located. Take-out is at the culvert on Riverside Drive. Travel immediately after this intersection is not recommended, as the river becomes shallow and crowded with trees and brush. Past Presque Isle, the river meanders north to Lake Superior and offers additional paddling opportunities.",

        "title": "Issues In Fort Worth Wrongful Death Cases | Tx. Injury Law",
        "raw_content": "This is the first article in a series which will discuss issues which can arise in Fort Worth, Texas wrongful death cases. We previously discussed the handling of wrongful death matters in general. We are following up on this discussion due to the fact that there are several unique issues which can arise in these types of cases. The goal of our coming articles is to provide information which will assist those, who have suffered a loss, in better understanding their situation. It is also our goal to provide information which will assist with the selection of a wrongful death lawyer. If you have lost a loved one then it is vital that you contact an attorney immediately.\nWe will be addressing several issues over our coming articles. Topics which we will analyze include:\nHow comparative fault can apply to wrongful death cases\nCases which involve multiple defendants and/or corporate entities\nThe possibility of a bifurcated trial\nSelecting an attorney for such matters\nThese are important topics for the surviving loved ones to consider. First, there are many instances in which the defendants may claim that the deceased was at least partially at fault for the accident. This can be especially true in cases involving car accidents, trucking accidents, etc. Second, if the case involved a commercial defendant then it will likely be necessary to identify and name multiple parties. Failing to name all of the parties can result in a victim not receiving the full amount to which they are entitled. Third, defense attorneys will sometimes attempt to split, or \u201cbifurcate,\u201d the trial into two stages. This can potentially prevent a jury from hearing the Plaintiff\u2019s entire story. Finally, making the right selection of counsel can potentially make a difference in the outcome of your case.\nOne point we cannot stress enough is the need to retain a firm with the resources necessary to handle such matters. Wrongful death cases are highly contested. It is not uncommon for a Plaintiff\u2019s lawyer to pay, up front, hundreds of thousands of dollars in costs for the handling of such cases. Retaining a firm without the resources necessary to front these costs can, possibly, result in your case not being handled properly. This is true regardless of whether the tragedy occurred in Fort Worth, Dallas, or elsewhere in Texas.",

        "raw_content": "The Beagle.\nArtwork by Max-Karl Winkler.\nGal\u00e1pagos: Education was developed by the National Science Teachers Association for teachers and parents who are interested in educational activities about the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands. Developed in conjunction with the Smithsonian Institution and the Imax film Galapagos, this Web site supports teaching and learning about biology, ecology, geology, and the unifying concepts of science. One of those unifying concepts is evolution\u0097that series of changes, some gradual, some sporadic, that accounts for the present form and function of objects, organisms, and systems.\nNSTA Position Statement: The Teaching of Evolution\nNSTA supports the position that evolution is a major unifying concept of science and should be included as part of K-College science frameworks and curricula. NSTA recognizes that evolution has not been emphasized in science curricula in a manner commensurate to its importance because of official policies, intimidation of science teachers, the general public's misunderstanding of evolutionary theory, and a century of controversy.\nThe Creation Controversy & The Science Classroom\nThe Creation Controversy & The Science Classroom features the article \"Effective Strategies for Teaching Controversial Topics\" by Craig E. Nelson, Ph.D. and a revision of our popular publication Modern Science and the Book of Genesis by James W. Skehan, S.J., Ph.D.\nEcology and Evolution: Islands of Change\nSeveral of the activities featured in this website are adaptations from NSTA's full-length book Ecology and Evolution: Islands of Change. Focusing on island biogeography, ecology, and evolution, the activities use the Gal\u00e1pagos as a theme throughout, but also make connections to students' local environments.\nBoth this book and a brochure explaining the position of the National Academies regarding this topic are available to download at no charge from this site. This web page also features a downloadable audio book and a podcast of the book, both of which are free. There is also a link to \"Tools for Understanding Evolution,\" a set that includes Science, Evolution, and Creationism, Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science, and Evolution in Hawaii: A Supplement to Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science.\nBrought to you by the National Center for Science Education and the American Association for the Advancement for Science, as part of the Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Religion, Voices for Evolution provides extensive links to the legal background behind the evolution controversy, as well as information provided by scientific, educational, religious, and civil libertarian organizations.\nTheory and History of Evolutionary Thought\nThis online exhibit at the Museum of Paleontology at the University of California, Berkeley provides detailed information on the major players in the history of evolutionary theory.\nGal\u00e1pagos film\nIn 1998-99 the Smithsonian and Imax Ltd. led expeditions to the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands to make the 3D film Gal\u00e1pagos. Visit the Imax Gal\u00e1pagos Web site to learn about the making of the film and where it is currently playing.\nVirtual Gal\u00e1pagos\nTake a virtual expedition to the Gal\u00e1pagos with TerraQuest. Learn about the islands' history, wildlife, geology, and contemporary social issues.\nGal\u00e1pagos is the home site to the Charles Darwin Research Station, Charles Darwin Foundation, and Gal\u00e1pagos Conservation Trust Web sites.\nRichard Benz, author of Ecology and Evolution: Islands of Change, also authored this Access Excellence/Biology Place sponsored Web site about Charles Darwin and his famous Voyage of the Beagle. This site is designed for teachers to use directly with their students.\nExplore Gal\u00e1pagos is the Discovery Channel School's site with images, facts, and games about the islands.\nGal\u00e1pagos Geology\nThe Department of Geological Sciences at Cornell University hosts this site on the Web, featuring the geology, climate, oceanography, and history of the islands.\nGal\u00e1pagos Volcano Tour\nVolcano World provides a virtual tour of the hot spot volcanoes that caused the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands.\nGal\u00e1pagos: Pressures on Paradise\nThe World Wildlife Fund's Web site on Gal\u00e1pagos conservation, as well as background information on the islands.\nAdventures in the Gal\u00e1pagos\nWritten by Dr. Carole Baldwin, marine biologist from the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, after her multiple trips to the Gal\u00e1pagos Islands during the course of filming the Imax movie Gal\u00e1pagos, this article can be downloaded in PDF format.\nClick on this icon to download free Adobe Acrobat Reader software.

        "raw_content": "Home Blog The National Road Safety Strategy: Reducing car accidents\nThe National Road Safety Strategy: Reducing car accidents\nImproving road safety in Australia by cutting the number of road fatalities through fewer car accidents is at the heart of the National Road Safety Strategy 2011\u20132020. The strategy has a firm figure in its sights, with its aim of a 30% reduction in the number of road fatalities and serious injuries by 2020.\nBut a recent spike in pedestrian injuries shows that this valuable initiative still has a long way to go to reach its goal.\nWhat is the National Road Safety Strategy?\nThe National Road Safety Strategy is the nation\u2019s ten-year plan to reduce road deaths and minimise car accidents on Australian roads. The strategy requires actions from all levels of government including federal, state, territory and local governments, with each having its own part to play in improving road safety in Australia.\nWhat are the main actions in the National Road Safety Strategy?\nThere are four main categories for action under the National Road Safety Strategy:\ninvesting in safe road infrastructure\nimproving the safety of vehicles on the road\nencouraging safe road user behaviour\nadvancing a Safe System approach to road safety.\nThe Australian Government is responsible for regulating safety standards for new vehicles, and for allocating infrastructure resources to improve road safety in Australia and reduce car accidents across the national highway and local road networks.\nState and territory governments are responsible for funding, planning, designing and operating the road network, managing vehicle registration and driver licensing systems, and regulating and enforcing road user behaviour.\nLocal governments have responsibilities for funding, planning, designing and operating the road networks in their local areas.\nRoad safety strategies are nothing new in Australia, and since the first one was introduced in 1992, the amount of car accidents, serious injuries and road fatalities has been on a steady downward trend. Key actions that have contributed to this include the building of safer highways, the lowering of speed limits, and safety campaigns targeting drink driving, the use of seat belts, and the dangers of fatigue and speeding.\nPedestrian safety still a cause for concern\nHowever, a disturbing increase in car accidents involving pedestrians over the past couple of years has led authorities to re-address and re-prioritise the measures taken to help improve road safety. In recent times in NSW, we have seen the introduction of 40km/h speed zones in the CBD to help reduce instances of pedestrian injury in the city. And at certain busy intersections, new traffic lights have been introduced with timers allowing pedestrians to see how much longer they have to cross the road.\nAre mobile phones the elephant in the room?\nWhile there are laws banning drivers from using their mobile phones when behind the wheel, the spike in deaths has turned the focus on the use of mobile phones by pedestrians. It\u2019s hard to prove that mobile phones are to blame for the rise in pedestrian injuries, but there\u2019s no question that more needs to be done to understand the cause, and this is an avenue worth exploring.\nThe National Road Safety Strategy is the country\u2019s plan to keep everyone safe on the roads. But life doesn\u2019t always go to plan. If you or a loved one are involved in a car accident and need to make a claim for personal injury, be sure to call an expert. Our team of senior lawyers at NSW Compensation Lawyers are always here to make sure you get the maximum compensation you deserve.\nNational Road Safety Strategy 2011\u20132020 \u2013 find out more here: roadsafety.gov.au\nImplementation Report \u2013 you can download the latest progress report here: roadsafety.gov.au/performance/files/NRSS_Implementation_report_Nov2016.pdf",

        "raw_content": "Prerequisites: High school diploma; completion of prerequisites; strong business management skills; good communication skills and possess problem-solving and critical thinking skills.\nHealth services management is an essential part of running a medical facility and keeping the business and its employees working as efficiently as possible. Students who have a strong sense of leadership and a deep interest in business management may find their calling in health services management. The bachelor's degree in health services management is typically offered as a business specialization that focuses heavily on business strategies and management principles and practices. Students can expect to take classes in a wide range of healthcare topics, including risk and insurance, healthcare planning, managing healthcare organizations, introduction to clinical care, negotiation skills, introduction to management in health service, health economics and much more. Although a master's degree is often the standard credential for most generalist positions, a bachelor's degree will be adequate for several entry-level positions within the departmental level of healthcare facilities.\nGraduates of a health services management degree program will be eligible to enter several leadership and administrative positions within different healthcare settings. A common career path for most graduates is to become a medical and health services manager, also known as a healthcare executive or healthcare administrator. This job entails much of what students learn and are trained to do in their degree program. The medical and health services management field can expect to see a positive employment growth by 2018, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The 16 percent employment increase can be attributed to the diverse and expanding needs of the healthcare industry. In 2008, medical and health services managers made an average annual salary of $80,240.\nHealth services management applicants will need to have a high school diploma and complete any prerequisite courses prior to enrollment. In addition to meeting all academic requirements, prospective students should also have strong business management and communications skills, and be able to think critically when faced with tough decisions.\nBefore you enroll in any health services management school or accept a job, you should do a fair amount of research to make sure you're getting the most out of your time and money. One way to find the best schools and jobs is to look at states that have the highest concentration of employees within this industry. According to BLS, the states with the most medical and health services managers include: New York, Maryland, Oklahoma, Maine and Washington, DC. Another factor to consider is how much each state pays these employees. The states with the highest paid medical and health services managers are Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Jersey, New York and Washington.\nIf you already have your bachelor's degree in health services management, there are still plenty of exciting educational opportunities awaiting you. Since health services management is often a stepping stone for graduate study within the field, you could pursue a master's degree in health services administration, long-term care administration, health sciences, public health, public administration or business administration. Pursuing a graduate degree will help further your job prospects and job responsibilities, as well as keep you fresh on the latest trends and procedures happening in public and private healthcare settings.",

Big Deal\nThe recent broadcast of a gay man hugging his partner after having won $500,000 on America's most popular game show (Arts pages, Jan. 25) shows just how far we've come as an enlightened people in only a few years. When the infamous ''Ellen'' episode was broadcast way back in the 1990's, it tried to change society. By treating homosexuality as a non-issue, ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire'' shows us just how much society has changed.\nOne wonders how America would respond to a likeable contestant who is in the military and who wins $1 million -- and who then hugs his (or her) same-sex partner.

        "raw_content": "International Business|World Health Organization Urges Stronger Regulation of Electronic Cigarettes\nWorld Health Organization Urges Stronger Regulation of Electronic Cigarettes\nSample flavorings of e-cigarettes at a store in Oklahoma City.CreditCreditNick Oxford for The New York Times\nBy David Jolly and Sabrina Tavernise\nPARIS \u2014 Governments should ban the use of electronic cigarettes in public places and outlaw tactics to lure young users, the World Health Organization said in a report released on Tuesday that calls for some of the toughest measures yet proposed for the increasingly popular devices.\nIt also expressed \u201cgrave concern\u201d about the growing role of the powerful tobacco industry in the e-cigarette market, warning that the financially powerful companies could come to dominate the new business and use the current tolerance of the new products as a gateway to ensnaring a new generation of smokers at a time when the public health authorities seem to be winning the battle against tobacco.\nThe proposals by the organization, a United Nations agency, are only recommendations that might have little likelihood of being widely adopted. But health experts said they would serve as an important reference point for policy makers, both nationally and locally, as they try to navigate the complex balance of benefits and risks with very little science on which to base conclusions.\nAnd the report seems likely to spur further intense lobbying by the tobacco and e-cigarette industries against more regulation.\nMany health experts welcomed the recommendations, which they said would help guide policy makers around the world as they struggle to keep up with a multibillion-dollar industry.\nBut some experts said they worried that the proposals were so restrictive that they might undermine the potential benefits of e-cigarettes, which, because they use battery-powered heating units to vaporize a liquid nicotine solution rather than burn tobacco, might not expose users to as many hazards as conventional cigarettes. Some experts have even argued that e-cigarettes have the potential to drastically reduce rates of smoking, one of the biggest causes of preventable death worldwide, and so should not be overregulated.\n\u201cWe\u2019re disappointed,\u201d said David Abrams, executive director of the Schroeder Institute for Tobacco Research and Policy Studies in Washington. \u201cThey are overregulating by equating e-cigarettes with regular cigarettes. We have to find a balance between protecting youth and helping smokers quit. This document doesn\u2019t do that.\u201d\nArmando Peruga, left, and Douglas Bettcher, both of the W.H.O., which issued a report on e-cigarettes. Experts said the proposals would be an important reference point for policy makers.CreditPierre Albouy/Reuters\nMr. Abrams was one of more than 50 public health experts who recently signed a letter calling on the World Health Organization to moderate its approach to e-cigarettes by calling for lighter regulation than applies to cigarettes.\nBut in its report, the organization said that because there were still too many uncertainties surrounding e-cigarettes, which have been on the market for less than a decade, their use indoors should be banned \u201cuntil exhaled vapor is proven to be not harmful to bystanders.\u201d\nThe report also called for regulation to ensure the products contain a standard dose of nicotine, as the drug content now varies widely among manufacturers. And to stop children from picking up the habit, it said that e-cigarette sales to minors should be banned and that fruity, candy-type flavorings should be prohibited.\nThe 13-page report, which summarizes the growing body of evidence on the health impact of electronic cigarettes, was prepared by the World Health Organization for the United Nations Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, to be held in mid-October in Moscow. The organization has no power to enforce its recommendations, but delegates to the meeting could, in theory, endorse the measures for inclusion in the treaty or call for yet more studies before taking further action.\nThe proposals come from the same organization that successfully pushed for the United Nations tobacco treaty, adopted in 2003, that is intended to reduce illnesses and deaths caused by tobacco. The signatory countries promise to eliminate or limit tobacco advertising, to raise cigarette taxes and to take steps to end smoking in public places.\nUnder the administration of former President George W. Bush, the United States signed the treaty in 2004. But Mr. Bush never sent it to the Senate for ratification and President Obama has yet to do so. That leaves the United States, along with Argentina, Cuba, Haiti, Morocco, Mozambique and Switzerland, as the only countries among the treaty\u2019s roughly 180 signatories not to have ratified it.\nThe rapid growth of the market for e-cigarettes has left national regulatory systems and health policy experts struggling to keep up, as old notions about the dangers of tobacco and smoking are posed in a new light. The health body said that there were now 466 brands of e-cigarettes globally, in a market valued last year at $3 billion. The market research firm Euromonitor forecasts sales will swell by a factor of 17 by 2030.\nAnecdotal evidence suggests that e-cigarettes may hold promise as smoking cessation aids. But the World Health Organization report noted that there was scant evidence for their effectiveness in helping smokers give up the habit.\nThe organization said that because there were still too many uncertainties surrounding e-cigarettes, which have been on the market for less than a decade.CreditNam Y. Huh/Associated Press\n\u201cVapers,\u201d as e-cigarette aficionados are known, have become a potent lobby on behalf of the products. Their support helped the tobacco industry defeat a European Commission proposal that the devices be regulated in Europe as medicines. In February, the European Parliament voted to adopt a set of rules that include a ban on advertising. The tobacco industry is lobbying to water down the measures before they are to go into effect in 2016.\nIn the United States, the Food and Drug Administration proposed in April extending its regulation of tobacco products to include e-cigarettes, with a ban on their sale to people under 18. The proposal remains under consideration.\nThe number of young Americans who have tried electronic cigarettes but never used conventional tobacco tripled in 2013 from 2011, to more than 250,000, according to a report on Monday from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Youth smoking rates in the United States dropped by half from 1997 to 2011, according to federal data, but the pace of the decline has slowed in recent years. Many health advocates worry that e-cigarettes may lead teenagers to use conventional cigarettes instead of serving as an alternative to them.\nThe World Health Organization\u2019s proposal to limit smoking in public places goes substantially further than the European Union\u2019s rules, which leave the decision about whether to restrict e-cigarette use to the 28 European Union member states. Some among them, including Britain and France, have said they were considering such measures.\nThe rules being considered by the F.D.A. in the United States do not address where e-cigarettes can be smoked. That policy decision, at least for now, is made mostly at the local level, with a number of states and cities banning the use of e-cigarettes in public places. Until recently, the American government had not even asserted its authority over e-cigarettes, leaving the entire industry virtually unregulated.\nThe World Health Organization report worries that Big Tobacco is becoming \u201cincreasingly aggressive in the battle for the fast-growing e-cigarette market.\u201d It said that while the current crop of independent e-cigarette companies had \u201cno interest in perpetuating tobacco use, the tobacco industry involved in the production and sale of electronic nicotine delivery systems certainly is.\u201d\nPhilip Morris International, which this year bought one of Britain\u2019s biggest e-cigarette makers, Nicocigs, said the World Health Organization was unfairly singling out tobacco companies, which a spokesman argued were well placed to create the best e-cigarette products.\n\u201cThe W.H.O. has once again called for de facto exclusion of tobacco companies in the democratic process,\u201d said the spokesman, Tommaso Di Giovanni. \u201cThis view ignores the fact that product innovation to develop and assess truly reduced risk alternatives to combustible cigarettes can play an important role for public health.\u201d\nCompanies like Philip Morris, Mr. Di Giovanni argued, \u201care not only driving this innovation, but have the necessary knowledge and resources to contribute to achieving that goal.\u201d\nDavid Jolly reported from Paris and Sabrina Tavernise from Washington.\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page B3 of the New York edition with the headline: Agency Urges Strict Curbs on Electronic Cigarettes.

        "raw_content": "Mr Y & the Health Service Executive\nWhether the HSE was justified in its decision to withhold, under section 42(m)(i), the identity of the individual(s) who provided information to the HSE regarding the applicant\nOn 12 January 2018 the applicant submitted a request for the names of complainants who stated to the HSE that he was not of sound mind. He also sought copies of all records in connection with the matter. On 13 February 2018, the HSE issued a decision in which it granted access to records relating to the matter with the redaction of certain information under sections 31(1) and 35(1) of the FOI Act, including the identities of the individual(s) who had contacted the HSE. The applicant sought an internal review of the HSE's decision to refuse access to the identities of the complainants. The HSE issued an internal review decision to the applicant by letter dated 3 April 2018 in which it affirmed its original decision. On 8 May 2018, the applicant sought a review by this Office of the HSE\u2019s decision to refuse access to the identities of the individuals who had contacted the HSE regarding him.\nI have decided to bring this case to a close by way of a formal, binding decision. In carrying out this review, I have had regard to the correspondence between the HSE and the applicant and to the communications between this Office and both the applicant and the HSE on the matter.\nThis review is concerned solely with whether the HSE was justified in its decision to refuse access to the identities of the individual(s) who contacted the HSE to express concerns relating to the applicant's well being.\nThe HSE initially relied on section 35(1) to refuse access to the identities of the individual(s) in question. During the course of the review, Ms Whelan of this Office notified both parties of her view that section 42(m)(i) of the FOI Act was of more relevance given that only the identity of the individual(s) was at issue. Both parties subsequently made submissions on the matter in response to Ms Whelan's correspondence, although the HSE maintained that section 35(1)(a) also applied.\nSection 42(m)(i) provides that the Act does not apply to a record relating to information whose disclosure could reasonably be expected to reveal or lead to the revelation of the identity of a person who has provided information in confidence in relation to the enforcement or administration of the law to an FOI body, or where such information is otherwise in its possession. In essence, the section provides for the protection of the identities of persons who have given information to FOI bodies in confidence in relation to the enforcement or administration of the law to ensure that members of the public are not discouraged from co-operating with such bodies or agencies.\nThe information at issue in this case comprises the names and contact details of the individual(s) who made the report to the HSE. It is clear, therefore, that the first condition has been met.\nThe second requirement for section 42(m)(i) to apply is that the provider of information must have provided that information in confidence. In its submission to this Office, the HSE stated that the individual(s) concerned had provided information in good faith and on the understanding that their identity would not be revealed. It argued that section 42(m)(i) is aimed at ensuring that members of the public are not discouraged from co-operating with bodies or agencies in the enforcement and administration of the law and that the disclosure of such confidential information would be detrimental to the functions of the HSE in investigating allegations of elder abuse.\nOn the other hand, the applicant argued that no evidence had been made available to him to suggest that the individual(s) concerned had provided the information in confidence. He also argued that the information provided about him was untrue.\nHaving examined the records held by the HSE on the matter, I accept that there is no evidence in the relevant records to state that the individual(s) concerned expressly sought an assurance of confidentiality in respect of their identity. Nevertheless, the HSE stated that the individual(s) in question made the report on the understanding that their information would be kept private and confidential and that the report was made in good faith.\nThis Office accepts that bodies such as the HSE act upon every report such as the type at issue in good faith and that the disclosure of the identities of complainants, even where the evidence suggests that the complaint was untrue, could reasonably be expected to prejudice the flow of information which bodies such as the HSE rely upon to carry out their functions. Indeed, the Commissioner has previously expressed the view that when one considers the person who, in good faith, supplies information which is subsequently found on investigation to be inaccurate or mistaken is considered, the difficulty for the FOI body in handling such information in any other manner becomes apparent.\nHaving regard to the nature of the information at issue and to the HSE's position on the matter, I accept that the information was given in confidence in this case and I find that the second requirement has been met.\nThe HSE, in accordance with the provisions of the Health Act 2004 (as amended by the Health Service Executive Governance Act 2013), is the single body with statutory responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services to the population of Ireland. Section 7 of the Health Act 2004 (as amended) states that the objective of the HSE is to use the resources available to it in the most beneficial, effective and efficient manner to improve, promote and protect the health and welfare of the public. The HSE, in its role of promoting and protecting the health and welfare of the public has developed policies in protecting the elderly in society from abuse. These functions are carried out by the HSE Safeguarding Team as per the National Safeguarding Policy. In light of the nature of the information given in this case and having regard to the statutory responsibilities of the HSE in respect of such matters, I am satisfied that the information provided relates to the enforcement or administration of the law and that the third requirement is met.\nHaving found that each of the three requirements are met, I find that section 42(m)(i) the FOI Act applies and that the HSE was justified in its decision to refuse access to the identity of the individual(s) who contacted the HSE to express concerns relating to the applicant's well being.\nIn light of this finding, it is not necessary for me to consider whether section 35(1) also applies.",

        "raw_content": "A Critical Look at 'The China Study' and Other Diet Plans\nscale measuring tape diet health weight cc 1000x523.jpg\nDenise Minger is perhaps most noted for her comprehensive rebuttal of \"The China Study\" some eight years ago. She's heavily vested in the vegan versus omnivore battle, having cycled through vegetarianism and raw veganism, finally coming full circle to being an omnivore.\nMinger took to vegetarianism when she was just 7 years old. \"I was eating steak one night at dinner and almost choked on it. I developed some kind of phobia surrounding things with meat textures and went vegetarian overnight,\" she explains.\nRaw Veganism Took a Toll on Health\nHowever, during the 10 years she remained a vegetarian, she began developing food allergies, including wheat and dairy allergies. \"By the time I was a teenager, I was really health-conscious,\" she says. \"I had to get into that whole scene just to stay healthy.\" At age 15, she discovered the raw vegan movement and got on the 80/10/10 diet, promoted by Dr. Douglas Graham. The diet is based on the hypothesis that we should eat what other primates eat, particularly frugivorous chimpanzees and bonobos.\n\"I was reading about it online at the age of 15 without having any background in human biology, physiology or anthropology \u2026 I fell into this trap of logic, that humans are the only animals that cook our food. We're the only animals that eat this species-inappropriate diet, [so] I went raw vegan overnight,\" she says. \"For one year straight, [I ate] nothing but fruits, vegetables and some nuts \u2014 all uncooked.\nI did great for the first month, as most people do when they stop eating crappy foods. After that, I started losing weight and muscle. My hair was falling out. My energy levels were fluctuating like crazy. I was in high school at the time, taking the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT). My brain fog got so bad at one point that when I was taking the SAT, I would read the question and by the time I got to the end I couldn't remember what the first part said \u2026\nThe kicker for me, because I've always taken great care of my teeth, was at the end of this period of raw veganism I had 16 cavities in my mouth, after a lifetime of what had previously been perfect dental health \u2026 It was actually the dental health issue that really turned my mind around \u2026 At that point, I had to let go of the vegan philosophy. I had to start questioning things \u2026\nThat's when I came across things like the Weston A. Price Foundation, which [details] what humans have been eating that has supported health in the past. I learned about the paleo movement \u2014 different forms of health-conscious omnivory. That's where I ended up. It was a process.\"\nDebunking 'The China Study'\nAs mentioned, Minger produced a very comprehensive critique of \"The China Study\" which is the scientific justification for many vegan positions. Her analysis \u2014 which some suspected to be funded by the meat industry \u2014 was actually undertaken while recovering from an accident. At the age of 22, she was hit by a car while riding her bicycle and shattered her elbow. Her convalescence afforded her the time to work on this project.\n\"I got a huge book of the raw 'China Study' data. I love numbers. I have fun with correlations. I have fun looking at patterns. My brain gets happy. I spent about two or three months poring over the data. I needed a project, because I had nothing else to do.\nI was poring over the data and that's when I realized I needed to write a critique of the book. So much of what [author T. Colin] Campbell said was not supported by his own data. I just felt like if there's anything I needed to do in life, it was going to be this.\nI didn't expect anyone to read it. I had a little blog. I like to say I had six readers, five of which were my mother on different computers. I didn't realize at the time how much interest the critique would gather; how much interest there was in that book itself. I hadn't really seen the rivalry upfront between the vegan and the paleo worlds. When I released this critique, I didn't know it was going to be that influential,\" she says.\nMinger developed quite a bit of notoriety as a result of that critique, especially in the vegan community. She's been vilified by many, including Campbell, who wrote personal rebuttals to her commentary on his work. Some have gone so far as to characterize her as someone who's promoting processed food.\nVideo of Dr. Mercola Interviews Denise Minger on Debunking \u2018The China Study\u2019 and Other Diet Plans",

        "raw_content": "Asian Rugby Junior Tournament Finals\nThe Asian Rugby Junior Division 2 Finals took place at Rizal Memorial Stadium on Saturday, December 17, 2011. The Philippines played against Malaysia for the third and fourth place and this proved to be a closely fought game with both teams trying to avoid relegation. The game was a very even contest with Malaysia and the Philippines scoring early tries to remain at 5 all halfway through the first half. Malaysia then stepped up the tempo and forced the Philippines into some crucial errors late in the second half that both resulted in tries to Malaysia. The second half saw a concerted comeback from the Philippine team and this was led by Danny Matthews who scored a try for the Philippines and kicked a penalty and conversion to bring the Philippines back to challenge Malaysia at 20 \u2013 18. During the last five minutes the Philippines were attacking the Malaysian line and unfortunately could not capitalize on their territorial advantage and Malaysia were able to kick a field goal on the fulltime whistle to win the game 23 \u2013 18.\nThe championship final was played between Korea and Chinese Taipei and both teams were determined to win the Division 2 final to gain promotion to Division 1. The game started at a ferocious pace and both forward packs used their big tight five players to try and dominate possession. It was Korea who scored the opening try and then followed up this effort with their number 8 scoring from the back of a driving maul to take a 12 \u2013 5 lead into the halftime break. Chinese Taipei staged a comeback in the second half but it was Korea who ran in four late tries to run away with the game by 36 \u2013 17. The Koreans will move back up to Division one in 2012 and the Philippines will be relegated to Division 3.\nThe Asian Rugby Junior Championship was the first internationally sanctioned Rugby Union tournament to be played at Rizal Memorial Stadium and the PRFU are looking forward to hosting the Asian 5 Nations Men\u2019s 15s Division 1 Championships at Rizal next April 13 \u2013 20th.

        "raw_content": "Philips and Italian Fatebenefratelli hospital sign multiyear strategic partnership to enable family-centered care for mother and child\nFirst-of-a-kind partnership model for Italy focuses on renewal and enhancement of the hospital\u2019s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, which is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2017\nAmsterdam, the Netherlands and Rome, Italy \u2013 Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, and the historic San Giovanni Calibita Fatebenefratelli Hospital in Rome today announced a long-term strategic partnership to introduce state-of-the-art Family Centered Care (FCC) at the hospital. This 6-year collaboration will enable the San Giovanni Calibita to deliver developmentally focused, family centered mother-and-child care of the highest clinical quality.\nThe partnership, with the development of a new Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at its core, aims at providing a safe, warm, intimate and supportive environment that accommodates ongoing family contact and reduces neonatal stress. Philips will be responsible for providing a full suite of technologies and services comprising medical equipment and accompanying maintenance, clinical informatics, innovation, training and tailored financing solutions. Philips will implement a centralized command system that works with advanced patient monitoring equipment in the NICU room to enable continuous surveillance of the neonates and monitoring of their vital signs.\nThe partnership between Philips and San Giovanni Calibita will strengthen the hospital\u2019s expertise in providing mother-and-child care: today it supports the birth of 4,000 newborns and provides critical medical care for 400 premature babies each year, not only from the Lazio Region, but also from the whole of Italy.\n\u201cDealing with the growing need for care and ever challenging budget constraints, hospitals are looking for an increased level of innovation and commitment from health technology companies like Philips,\u201d said Stefano Folli, CEO and President of Philips Italy, Israel and Greece. \u201cWe are proud to introduce a very innovative strategic collaboration model in Italy with a forward-looking institution like the San Giovanni Calibita Fatebenefratelli Hospital, thus settling a new co-creation paradigm in the healthcare industry that is leading today our business strategy.\u201d\n\"This is a next step forward in the renewal and revitalization of the hospital to ensure long-term excellence and innovation to citizens, always respecting our founding values,\" comments Dario Gaeta, Managing Director of the San Giovanni Calibita Fatebenefratelli Hospital. \u201cWorking with Philips allows us to co-create a sustainable integral solution that combines efficiency with the best possible clinical care and the sensitivity of the human touch that is needed in a NICU. This agreement is the latest in time of other partnerships the Hospital signed and is studying with other strategic partners.\u201d\nThe renovation and modernization work in the San Giovanni Calibita Fatebenefratelli Hospital will end in Autumn 2017. Meanwhile, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, which is already open to parents 24 hours a day, continues to provide high levels of care and services built around the needs of newborns and their families.\nAbout Hospital San Giovanni Calibita Fatebenefratelli\nSan Giovanni Calibita \u2013 Fatebenefratelli Hospital of Tiberina Island in Rome was founded in 1584. As General Hospital of the area since 1972, it is equated with public health centers, while preserving the private nature of the institution and administration owned by the Religious Hospitaller Order of Saint John of God \u201cFatebenefratelli\u201d. Over the years, the Hospital has experienced a constant evolution and a persistent adaptation to the needs of the territory to continue to be a reference point and a model in the area where the Fatebenefratelli religious brothers have been operating for over 500 years. Today, the Health Care Center is divided into more than twenty Departments serving all citizens from the Region and above. Several points of excellence developed over the years. Particularly, the Hospital, with about 4000 births a year, is an important reference point for maternal-fetal medicine in the area as well as the rest of Italy. Especially, women who have pathology in pregnancy (30%) are ensured access to an Intensive Care Service for Mother and Child.

        "raw_content": "Kidnapped Salvadoran Kids Rescued by ICE Agents in Phoenix\nRay Stern | May 12, 2010 | 12:02pm\nThree kids from El Salvador, held for ransom after their parents paid to have them smuggled into the United States, were released in Phoenix after ICE agents began working the case.\nThe U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement bureau got wind of the kidnapping on Monday and \"worked round-the-clock\" to find the children, ages 11 to 15. As a result of the effort, an ICE news release says, the children were released unharmed on Tuesday morning at a west Phoenix business.\nIt sounds like the kids were held by the kidnappers for at least two weeks, judging by the news release. ICE declined to release full details about the case.\nThe Salvadoran parents, who live in Washington D.C., paid $13,000 to have their children smuggled into the country, according to ICE.\nAfter the kids arrived in late April, the kidnappers demanded that the parents shell out an extra $6,500. But the thugs weren't satisfied even when the parents paid up -- they then demanded another $7,000, ICE says.\nOnly at that point, the ICE release says, did the parents become concerned enough about their kids' safety that they called authorities. ICE is working to have the children, who were \"frightened, but appeared to be in good health,\" reunited with their parents.",

        "raw_content": "Steven Anderson Flips Out, Admits Business and Church Share an Address, Says He's Been Contacted by U.S. Secret Service (w/Update)\nStephen Lemons | September 6, 2009 | 8:54pm\nWeirdness of weirdness. I was only hoping to do one blog post today, but fate took another turn.\nI ended back up in Tempe, thinking protest organizer Leonard Clark might be doing another anti-Steven Anderson action for Anderson's 6:30 p.m. service. When I got there, Clark was being interviewed by ABC 15's Tim Vetscher, but there was no follow-up, really, to the protest of earlier that morning, which I've already blogged about.\nSince I was at the church, and since Anderson's evening service was about to let out, I decided to wait so I could ask Anderson if the U.S. Secret Service had contacted him since I spoke with him last week. Vetscher wanted to do the same, so he waited with me. I'm glad he was there, because he ended up catching Anderson's wig-out on tape. (You can see some of what Vetscher captured, here.)\nAt first, Chris \"AR-15\" Broughton's mom stopped by. She seemed like a very educated lady, though she declined to make any comment about the church her son attends, as well as declining to give her name. She would only say that she's a \"firm believer in fighting illness, not people.\" She also mentioned that she used to be an engineer, and that she believed \"religion is a man-made thing.\" All in all, a very rational, pleasant individual.\nAnderson opened the door of the church, and Vetscher asked the preacher-man if he'd been visited by the Secret Service since last week. Anderson admitted that the Secret Service had called him, but his attorney advised him not to speak with them. So he declined their request for an interview.\nRudy Mills, the owner of a salon in the same mall as Anderson's church, had stopped by to find out what all the controversy was about with the church. At some point, Mills began to challenge Anderson, in a very polite way, over Anderson's infamous Obama-should-die sermon.\n\"You should be preaching the spirit of forgiveness,\" Mills advised Anderson, calmly.\"You should be preaching redemption and turning away from sin, not condemnation.\"\nAnderson accused Mills of defending a murderer (i.e., Obama -- um, because he supports access to abortion, which is legal, btw), and accused Mills of voting for Obama, though Mills said he didn't want to say who he voted for. The pastor declared that he (Anderson) had voted for Ron Paul. (No surprise there, eh?) In the midst of Anderson's twisted theological explanations, he got off on an odd tangent, and I felt the need to jump in.\n\"The apostles told the Jews that they killed Jesus,\" offered Anderson, trying to make the case for the concept of extended guilt. \"Were they the ones that physically nailed the nails in his hand? No, it was a Roman soldier. But yet he said to the Jews, you have taken Jesus with wicked hands and have crucified him.'\"\nThere was a pregnant pause, and I was getting a little peeved by what I perceived to be this odd anti-Semitic turn, so I let fly.\n\"Should the Jews be killed too?\" I wondered of Anderson. You know, like the gays, and the president, and everyone else who doesn't fit into his perverse Biblical scheme. Anderson said I was full of boloney.\n\"You'd love to turn this into a race thing,\" he told me. \"I know how you are, I've read your newspaper.\"\nI informed him that I did not regard Jewish people to be a \"race.\" Last time I checked, Judaism was a religion.\nIn general, it's hard to pinpoint if people are racist. Actions and words are a little easier to snuff out. I think Anderson's said some naive things, but I haven't gone so far as to call him a racist. A nut, perhaps, but he's no J.T. Ready.\nAnyway, I started to ask Anderson about the fact that he lists the strip-mall address for his church as the address for his fire alarm business. This really seemed to set Anderson off, though he eventually admitted that his fire alarm business helps pay the rent on the church space, that his business receives mail there, and that he stores some business equipment there. Still, Anderson insisted that his business is run from his home.\n\"My business is exactly one year old,\" he informed me. \"And my business pays part of the rent in order to store equipment in this room. See this door right here...The church doesn't use this room.\"\nI quizzed him on the fact that a certain state government entity has a listing for his church and for his business online, and that they both list the same address, though not the 2707 E. Southern Ave. address, which the church now inhabits.\n\"It's the same address because that's my house,\" he advised me. Then he accused me of wanting to plaster his address all over the place online. I advised him, in turn, that I had no idea that was his home address until he told me. (Gee, thanks, genius.)\nRemember, Anderson is the one who advised me of what his home address is. I'm not interested in posting it on this blog. I mean the guy has little kids, and they can't help it if their dad's an idiot and places his home address online, then mouths off about the president.\nAnderson kept poking at me with his fingers, so I ordered him to cease doing so. \"I'm not the Border Patrol, so don't touch me,\" I cracked, thinking of recent videos I'd seen on the YouTube site RP4409, where he provocatively bumps into BP agents.\n\"And I touched them, right?\" he shot back, referring to an incident earlier this year in which he was Tasered. \"I think they beat the crap out of me.\"\n\"I think you provoked them,\" I opined. I mean, I'm against Tasers, period. But in his case, he could have easily avoided getting Tasered in that now famous incident by just opening his car door.\nInterestingly, Vetscher told me that he had recently been visited at his home by a member of Anderson's congregation, supposedly canvassing for souls to save. We both remarked on how odd a coincidence that would be, for such a small congregation as Anderson's to have someone show up at his house. Vetscher admitted that he owned his home, so presumably it would be listed under his name\nWhile Anderson and I were having our back and forth, I confronted him about it, and asked if he had sent someone to Vetscher's house.\n\"No, that was totally random, they knocked on every door on the street,\" he told me.\nYou should play Lotto, pastor. Because if your story's true, you're the luckiest preacher in the world.\nThe Greater Phoenix Metro Area resembles Dallas circa 1963: That's the message national ABC journo Susan Donaldson James got from me Labor Day when she called about my recent run-in with Pastor Steven Anderson. Check out James' report on Leonard Clark's successful Sunday action against the Obama-hatin' pastor, here.\nLocal affiliate ABC 15 has posted some raw footage of Anderson's flip-out Sunday evening. I should reiterate that this back and forth with Anderson was spontaneous. Up until a certain point, I was just listening to Anderson talk to businessman Rudy Mills. Once Anderson started getting into this creepy the-Jews-killed-Christ territory, I started asking him questions.\n2006 is the year Faithful Word Baptist Church was registered as a non-profit, according to government docs. I said 2005 instead of 2006 while quizzing Anderson at one point. But you'll see that Anderson seemed to know exactly what I was referring to.\nI talked to ABC 15's Tim Vetscher Monday, and he once again confirmed that Anderson's church recently knocked on his door. One of the church's members, bearing a gun stuffed into his waistband, stopped by Vetscher's home while they were supposedly canvassing the area. Vetscher informed me that other doors in his neighborhood were knocked on. It seems an amazing coinkydink that they would just happen to go through Vetscher's 'hood seeking converts, after Vetscher had reported on them.\n(Smooth move saving souls with a gat in the waistband, BTW.)\nFor the lady who thinks I put the red eye into Anderson's pic, come by New Times' office sometime and I'll show you the photo as it is in my camera. I wouldn't know how to put red eye into a photo. That's a new one on me. I'll give you points for conspiracy-theory originality, though. For the guy who insists the Jews are a race, he should try telling that one to Ethiopian Jews. Or maybe he should rent some old Sammy Davis, Jr. flicks.",

        "raw_content": "By Frank Lee on Feb 10, 2019 at 5:00 a.m.\nBrainerd Family YMCA CEO Shane Riffle works from his desk Tuesday, Feb. 5. Frank Lee / Brainerd Dispatch1 / 3\nShane Riffle, chief executive officer of the Brainerd Family YMCA, looks at his computer screen in his office Tuesday, Feb. 5. Frank Lee / Brainerd Dispatch2 / 3\nBrainerd Family YMCA CEO Shane Riffle holds one of the signs that were around town enticing new members to join after New Year's Day. Frank Lee / Brainerd Dispatch3 / 3\nShane Riffle never imagined a summer job before college as a YMCA lifeguard would turn into a lifelong affiliation, but the Brainerd Family YMCA CEO still believes in the faith-based nonprofit.\nThe YMCA works to support the people and neighborhoods that need it most by addressing community issues, such as school readiness, chronic diseases and childhood obesity.\n\"The great thing about the Y is we're a federated nonprofit, and we're one of over 10,000 neighborhood YMCAs across the country, so there are a lot of us out there,\" Riffle said.\nThe Brainerd Family YMCA Board of Directors announced more than a year ago that Riffle was the new CEO. The 47-year-old husband and father of two joined the organization after longtime CEO Randy Klinger resigned after serving the YMCA for 23 years.\n\"Before Brainerd, I was in Myrtle Beach, S.C., as the chief operations officer at the YMCA of Coastal Carolina, which is very touristy. It's what you think when you hear 'Myrtle Beach'\u2014lots of golfers, people of wealth and means,\" Riffle said.\nDuring his 25 years with the YMCA, Riffle also served as executive director at the West Family YMCA and Boise City Aquatic Center in Idaho, and program executive at the Countryside YMCA in Ohio.\n\"I was at a point in my career where I started thinking that ... I would like to make CEO-type of decisions, so I jumped on the website and was looking around, and had a lot of different opportunities and conversations,\" Riffle said. \"There was a certain criteria that I was looking for ... that it would be a position that would challenge me but not break me. I knew I wasn't ready for my first CEO position to be at a really large YMCA, so the size of the Y was really important to me ... and then the community.\"\nHis key roles are to ensure the financial security of the Brainerd Family YMCA, develop and lead philanthropic efforts and to oversee operations and program development, which meet critical community needs.\n\"There's such a wonderful feeling in Brainerd. Brainerd's just changing, and there's a lot of new leaders, and we're really working hard to revitalize this community and make sure that everyone has access, opportunity and that it's a destination,\" Riffle said.\nThe YMCA was founded in London in 1844 by George Williams and a small group of his friends to help young people find a positive foundation for their lives. The YMCA came to America in Boston in 1851 and quickly spread throughout the United States.\nRiffle was also born in England. He grew up around the U.S. as the son of a career Air Force noncommissioned officer. Riffle has a bachelor's degree from the University of Cincinnati and has many certifications, including health coaching from the American Council on Exercise.\n\"During my first year (in Brainerd), one of my goals was to re-introduce the Y to the community as a YMCA. There was such an opportunity to do more, to partner more ... bringing in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) programming, the summer learning loss prevention, safety around water,\" Riffle said. \"We weren't doing those things, so starting a foundation with our staff\u2014building their competencies as leaders and understanding what these programs are and then make sure they have the resources and tools to implement them.\"\nThe Brainerd Family YMCA faces increased competition for members from other fitness centers.\n\"We are confident that membership at the Y is of great value, and we truly welcome all,\" Riffle said. \"Our financial assistance allows us to keep our promise of never turning away anyone because of inability to pay. We will always work hard to reach more people and have a positive impact. Everyone who comes through our door has the opportunity to belong to our cause.\"\nThe Brainerd Family YMCA on Oak Street includes among its many amenities fitness rooms, new cardio and strength equipment, a full-sized gym, a racquetball court and two pools.\n\"Through our staff, we've systematically looked at every department and identified where they're gaps in programming and where we could do more and then where could we partner with others to do even more,\" Riffle said. \"And that's one of the things that I've been working. I want to make sure that we are part of the conversation, part of that collaborative who are making these types of things happen, which is why we have such a strong involvement with Crow Wing Energized.\"\nCrow Wing Energized is a grassroots community health and wellness movement led and funded by Crow Wing County, Essentia Health and the Statewide Health Improvement Program.\n\"We are so much more than people often realize,\" Riffle said of the Brainerd Family YMCA.\n\"From our health and wellness team having certifications as health coaches to our supportive and empathetic approach of connecting with members, we are here to meet people where they are with their health, whether it is someone new, someone struggling to make healthy choices, or those who are already fit.\"\nExplore related topics:lifestylehealthBrainerd Family YMCAShane RifflenonprofitFaithYMCAyRandy KlingerCrow Wing EnergizedCrow Wing CountyEssentia HealthStatewide Health Improvement Program",

They\u2019ve done bad things. That\u2019s what I think.\u201d\nThe devastating insight left participants reeling, none of whom had considered that before.

        "raw_content": "Election security problems go beyond 2018\n2020 VISION \u2014 Security for the 2018 elections are the immediate focus with votes less than 100 days away, but there are also signs that security for 2020 won\u2019t be up to snuff, according to lawmakers and experts. The $380 million Congress set aside in March, those experts say, \u201cis barely enough to train election workers and fix the voter registration databases that were a top target for hackers in 2016 \u2014 and nowhere near enough to replace insecure voting machines,\u201d Eric reports, with help from the team. Lawmakers from states with the most vulnerable paperless machines, like South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and Louisiana Rep. Cedric Richmond, said they\u2019d like to see improvements, either specifically to their states in Graham\u2019s case or generally in Richmond\u2019s case.\nThe story comes shortly after President Donald Trump chaired his first-ever meeting on the subject and promised a \u201cwhole-of-government\u201d effort to safeguard elections against foreign interference. \u201cThe President has made it clear that his Administration will not tolerate foreign interference in our elections from any nation state or other malicious actors,\u201d Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement. \u201cThe Trump Administration will continue to provide the support necessary to the owners of elections systems \u2014 State and local governments \u2014 to secure their elections.\u201d But the pledge wasn\u2019t attached to any new specific directives.\nHAPPY MONDAY and welcome to Morning Cybersecurity! Your MC host really hopes this footage does justice. Send your thoughts, feedback and especially tips to tstarks@politico.com, and be sure to follow @POLITICOPro and @MorningCybersec. Full team info below.\nDHS SUMMIT ON DECK \u2014 Industry groups are bullish on Tuesday\u2019s cybersecurity summit in New York City hosted by DHS and featuring top CEOs and officials across the federal government. Dean Garfield, president and CEO of the Information Technology Industry Council, is enthused by not only the guest list, but also the emphasis on \u201ccollective defense,\u201d he told MC. \u201cIt's perfectly apt. it's a good description of what is needed,\u201d Garfield said. \u201cThe digital economy is the economy. The only way to protect your economy is through shared responsibility.\u201d Garfield\u2019s organization and USTelecom joined forces earlier this year to launch the Council to Secure the Digital Economy, and they\u2019ll be touting the concept at Tuesday\u2019s event. Collective defense is a new twist on the old idea of public-private collaboration. \u201cI don\u2019t want to forecast success\u201d for the event, Garfield said, but \u201cthe groundwork has been done to turn this into something meaningful.\u201d\nThe president and CEO of USTelecom also told MC the idea of collective collaboration was essential. \"The big thing, the most important opportunity for this gathering, is to emphasize in a practical way and public way that if we are going to increase our opportunity to lower risks, to protect our increasingly important critical infrastructure from these type of threats as the enemies out there are becoming much more sophisticated \u2014 it does require better cross-sectorial cooperation and common action,\" said Jonathan Spalter.\nLEARNING OUR LESSON \u2014 The DNC won\u2019t make the same mistake twice. Two years after its lax security practices changed the course of a presidential campaign, the committee \u201chas instilled a complete culture change\u201d regarding cybersecurity, the organization promised in a memo sent over the weekend to political consultants, reporters and other \u201cinterested parties.\u201d \u201cThe Russian military attacked our democracy in 2016 and we know they'll be back,\u201d the memo said. \u201cThat\u2019s why the DNC is providing guidance and technical assistance to states to prevent future hacks.\u201d The party committee talked up its use of encrypted messaging apps, its transition to a more secure email platform, its anti-phishing training and its \u201cmandating immediate and timely software updates on all work devices.\u201d\nIn June 2017, the DNC hired former Uber and Twitter executive Raffi Krikorian to lead an overhaul of its technology and digital security practices, and in January it brought in former Yahoo Chief Information Security Officer Bob Lord as its chief security officer. Lord previously helped Yahoo recover from a pair of devastating data breaches, one of which, according to a Justice Department indictment, was the work of Russian intelligence officers. \u201cIn addition to working to safeguard DNC systems, this team is providing state parties with technical assistance and advice on the best safety precautions to take as we approach the midterm elections,\u201d the DNC said in its memo. \u201cDNC staff works with state parties and candidates if they see suspicious behavior or potential attacks.\u201d\nPACIFIC PALS \u2014 U.S. officials met with their South Korean and Japanese counterparts in Washington late last week for \u201ca trilateral cyber experts meeting\u201d to discuss \u201cpromoting an open, interoperable, reliable, and secure Internet,\u201d the State Department said in a readout. The U.S. team included officials from the departments of State, Homeland Security, Justice, and Commerce. The three nations recommitted to working together to \u201cenhance international cyber stability, deter malicious activities in cyberspace, and counter cyber threats, including from state actors,\u201d the statement added. South Korea faces a never-ending cyber barrage from North Korea\u2019s increasingly ambitious hackers stationed around the world, and Japan is a top target for Chinese hackers hoping to steal intellectual property, gather intelligence and surveil dissidents. Also on the agenda in Washington were the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, which fell prey to a disruptive Russian cyberattack, and the 2020 Olympics planned for Tokyo.\nWE TAKE IT BACK \u2014 The Trump administration might lift sanctions on a company founded by a Russian oligarch with close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The U.S. Treasury in April imposed sanctions against billionaire Oleg Deripaska and the eight companies in which he is a large shareholder, including aluminum company Rusal, in response to what it called \u201cmalign activities\u201d by Russia related to tampering in the 2016 election. Now, with the price of aluminum spiking, the U.S. is rethinking sanctions on the firm. Deripaska has stepped down as a non-executive director. \"The objective was to impact the oligarchs, not to impact the hardworking people of Rusal as a result of the sanctions,\u201d Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told CNN.\nNICE POWER GRID YOU GOT THERE \u2014 The U.S. power grid might prove to be a more tempting target for Russian hackers in 2018 than elections, The New York Times reported. Intelligence officials and executives say DHS has understated the threat of hackers planting malware in the power grid. The warning comes on the heels of news that Sen. Claire McCaskill\u2019s office was struck by what she claims was an unsuccessful digital attack by Moscow-backed hackers. \u201cWhen we see an attempt like this, we have no way of discerning what the attacker\u2019s motivation is,\u201d said Tom Burt, the vice president for customer security and trust at Microsoft, which detected the original intrusions, who amended his earlier comment that his company had discovered and help halt cyberattacks on three congressional candidates down to two. Also Sunday, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said there have been widespread phishing campaigns against political candidates and parties, and that she had even reported one incident herself to authorities.\nRECENTLY ON PRO CYBERSECURITY: Russian President Vladimir Putin invited Trump to Moscow for a second meeting. \u2026 The Pentagon has assembled a \u201cdo not buy\u201d list of tech companies with ties to China and Russia.\n\u2014 Trump late last week nominated James Gfrerer to be assistant secretary for information and technology at the Veterans Affairs Department. He previously worked as an executive director with Ernst & Young in its cybersecurity practice.\nTWEET OF THE DAY \u2014 \u201cHello, yes, it looks like someone has hacked our GPS through the in-flight entertainment system. What should we do?\u201d\n\u2014 Montana\u2019s secretary of state said hackers probed the state\u2019s systems during the 2016 elections. Associated Press\n\u2014 And here\u2019s a look at Wisconsin. Capital Times\n\u2014 West Virginia just hosted advanced election security training for officials around the nation. Vice\n\u2014 The FBI\u2019s anti-election interference task force remains mysterious. BuzzFeed\n\u2014 The Trump administration is working on consumer and data privacy rules.

Baby can suck, frown and clench those tiny little fists.\nBaby\u2019s bone marrow, liver and spleen have taken over productions of red blood cells. At about 8cm or 3 inches long your baby is about the size of a pear and weighs around 1 and a half ounces.\nHopefully you will find you have plenty of energy at 13 weeks, so you might want to start some form of exercise such as swimming. Your sickness will hopefully be gone too, but if it isn\u2019t, don\u2019t despair, some women find it eases at around 15 or 16 weeks.\nYour bump should be growing nicely and you will notice your veins are more prominent on your breasts and your areolas around your nipples are darker.\nProbably people will know you are pregnant by now and may want to tell you their pregnancy and birth stories. If any are less than positive, don\u2019t let it worry you, just make sure you keep doing everything you can to keep yourself and your baby healthy.\nThis week I am 13 weeks pregnant and I have had a couple of days where the sickness has been noticeably better. One day I went to my sister\u2019s and I was able to eat and enjoy croissants at 11am and then tuna and cheese sandwiches for lunch and it felt great. In the evening I didn\u2019t feel quite so good, but it has really given me a light at the end of the tunnel.\nI still feel tired and I am still getting sick, but I feel like it is a bit more manageable and easy to cope with. I\u2019m so looking forward to getting that second trimester burst of energy.\nOne thing keeps me positive and that is that having worse sickness this time could mean it\u2019s a girl. I would like to have a girl as me and Davo shook hands to agree that if I do I won\u2019t have any more. And that\u2019s not because I don\u2019t want lots of kids, it\u2019s just because I\u2019ve realised that I really couldn\u2019t go through this sickness again. If it\u2019s a boy we will have to think what to do, whether trying to get a girl is worth going through this again.",

        "raw_content": "While Clay is off wandering in some foreign wilderness this week, he asked me to make a guest appearance here on the mailing list, and I'd like to take the opportunity to describe an interesting scenario we worked with recently.\nThey say that when it rains, it pours. Well, for our borrower it had been pouring for a long time. A long run of bad luck had left him in a difficult situation, and he needed a good luck charm.\nSCENARIO: About a year previous, the Borrower had purchased a house for his own residence. During the first weeks of living there, he discovered that watering his lawn also resulted in watering the contents of his basement--the foundation was bad, and had to be replaced completely. Not to be discouraged, he contracted to have the house lifted and a proper foundation installed. A small bump in the road, but everything seemed to be fine.\nBut when the house had been raised and was waiting for the foundation, a hydraulic jack failed, and dropped the structure 18 inches. The operation was supposed to have had no impact on the cosmetics and structure of the house, but the fall had reduced it to what the bank originally funding the purchase called a 'shack'. Consequently, this bank withdrew its funding.\nWhat's more, it soon became clear that the insurance and bond information provided by the contractor was false, and that he was in fact uninsured. Before long he was in bankruptcy, and the borrower had a dozen other aggrieved parties ahead of him in line for a civil suit, with no possibility of recovering damages.\nThe Borrower persisted. Out of pocket, he had the house put on a proper foundation and began repairing the damage, completing much of the work himself. But finally, with a remaining balance on his contract of sale, an outstanding rehab loan, a significant amount remaining in repairs to finish the house, and no additional funds of his own available, he was unable to move forward.\nPROBLEM: Because the house was, in the bank's evaluation, a shack, they had withdrawn their funding, and no other conventional source could be found that would lend on the property in its current state. Additionally, the Borrower had been the victim of identity theft, and although he had documented this well, filed reports with the police, and notified all three credit bureaus of the status of the accounts appearing on his credit report, he was still, in the end, left with a mid-score in the low 500s.\nANALYSIS: Thanks to the detailed plans and photos provided by the Borrower and our own inspection of the property, we were able to clearly see what the house would be when it was finished. And thanks to the good comparable sales analysis he had assembled, we were also able to see what it would be worth. Given this projected value, the amounts currently owed on the property, the amount needed to finish construction, fees and closing costs, our LTV was 73%. We had a Borrower who had already invested a large amount of money out-of-pocket and countless hours of work into the project, so he was plainly 100% committed to the project. According to his credit report, service of his own debts (not those resulting from the identity theft) had been good. His income appeared to be sufficient to service the loan.\nSOLUTION: Despite these positive elements, the LTV was still a bit high for under the circumstances. So, we decided to carry our fees as a second position lien, reducing the LTV of the first position lender's lien to 69%. We were able to pay off all current debt on the property, and the funds required to finish the house were deposited into a construction account, to be drawn upon as work was completed.\nA. Heinrich",

        "raw_content": "22 Weeks of Summer: Post #2 \u2013 Why Does the Summer Heat Make You Feel So Doggone Yucky?\nAfter so many centuries of dealing with hot summers, why is it that the human body still becomes uncomfortable when the temperature rises above a certain point? (And it must be noted here that the \u201cpoint\u201d is different for each person; some people reach it at 75 degrees Fahrenheit, others at 90 degrees Fahrenheit.)\nOf course, there is a biological reason that we can\u2019t quite hack it without finding cool comfort (e.g., the shade, the basement, a pool, a cool bath or shower, indoor air conditioning). In a nutshell, it has to do with how fast heat is exiting your body. For instance, when the thermometer rises, there comes a point where your body cannot rid itself of heat without sweating. It\u2019s then that you start to get that really \u201cblechy\u201d feeling. (Yep, that\u2019s a technical term.)\nWhen you add high humidity to the equation, it gets even worse.\nAgain, for some individuals, it feels exceptionally good to hang out on an 85 degree day while others are sweltering. So there is some variation as to what one person can handle compared with what another one can take.\nIn any case, we recommend that whatever your preferred summer temperature, you stay hydrated with a cool, non-caffeinated beverage as you beat the central Pennsylvania summer heat waves!",

The exhibition was curated by Dylan Robinson, Assistant Professor and Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Arts, and internationally-renowned Indigenous curator Candice Hopkins. It features newly-commissioned scores, sounds, and performances by Indigenous artists.\n\u201cOne of the recommendations of the Queen\u2019s Truth and Reconciliation Commission Final Report \u2018Yakwanastahent\u00e9ha Aankenjigemi: Extending the Rafters\u2019 was that Indigenous history and culture become part of the physical make-up of the university,\u201d says Dr. Robinson. \u201cNot only do these artworks respond to this recommendation, but in some cases also ask viewers to reconsider the built environment and colonial architecture of the university.\u201d\nSoundings is affiliated with the Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts\u2019 concurrent Ka\u2019tarohkwi Festival of Indigenous Arts. Visit their website for more details on a diverse array of performances by acclaimed Indigenous artists working across theatre, dance, music, film and performance art.\nThese outdoor artworks are the first component of Soundings, which features 11 additional new works by Indigenous artists inside the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. When the exhibition opens on Saturday, Jan. 5, it will include video, objects, graphic notation, Indigenous cultural belongings, and written instructions for visitors.\nUniquely, each of these new artworks functions as a \u201cscore,\u201d yet rather than written in music notation these scores are written symbols, language, and recorded instructions. At different moments during the exhibition, these scores will be activated by musicians, dancers, performers, and members of the public, and gradually fill the gallery and surrounding public spaces with sound, performance, and action.\n\u201cThe scope, public presence, ambition, urgent cultural currency, and performance-driven character of this exhibition project make Soundings a landmark in Agnes\u2019s program history,\u201d says Jan Allen, Director of the Agnes. \u201cSoundings curators Dr. Robinson and Ms. Hopkins are bringing leading Indigenous artists together around a powerful invitation to express the terms of reconciliation. I\u2019m thrilled to see the results unfolding from this high level of creative exchange.\u201d\nSoundings is on view through Sunday, April 7, 2019. Watch for upcoming performances of the works announced in the At Agnes newsletter, and on the gallery\u2019s website.\nThe presentation of these outdoor artworks is generously supported through the Isabel & Alfred Bader Fund of Bader Philanthropies.

We also complete a guided visualization exercise that you can use any time you need to make this shift. Check it out below and don't forget to join the conversation in the comments!",

        "title": "Here are 9 things Americans just don't understand -- compared to the rest of the world",
        "raw_content": "Here are 9 things Americans just don\u2019t understand \u2014 compared to the rest of the world\nAlex Henderson, AlterNet - COMMENTARY\nTo hear the far-right ideologues of Fox News and AM talk radio tell it, life in Europe is hell on Earth. Taxes are high, sexual promiscuity prevails, universal healthcare doesn\u2019t work, and millions of people don\u2019t even speak English as their primary language! Those who run around screaming about \u201cAmerican exceptionalism\u201d often condemn countries like France, Norway and Switzerland to justify their jingoism. Sadly, the U.S.\u2019 economic deterioration means that many Americans simply cannot afford a trip abroad to see how those countries function for themselves. And often, lack of foreign travel means accepting clich\u00e9s about the rest of the world over the reality. And that lack of worldliness clouds many Americans\u2019 views on everything from economics to sex to religion.\nHere are nine things Americans can learn from the rest of the world.\n1. Universal Healthcare Is Great for Free Enterprise and Great for Small Businesses\nThe modern-day Republican Party would have us believe that those who promote universal healthcare are anti-free enterprise or hostile to small businesses. But truth be told, universal healthcare is great for entrepreneurs, small businesses and the self-employed in France, Germany and other developed countries where healthcare is considered a right. The U.S.\u2019 troubled healthcare system has a long history of punishing entrepreneurs with sky-high premiums when they start their own businesses. Prior to the Affordable Care Act of 2010, a.k.a. Obamacare, many small business owners couldn\u2019t even obtain individual health insurance plans if they had a preexisting condition such as heart disease or diabetes\u2014and even with the ACA\u2019s reforms, the high cost of health insurance is still daunting to small business owners. But many Americans fail to realize that healthcare reform is not only a humanitarian issue, it is also vitally important to small businesses and the self-employed.\nIn 2009, the Center for Economic and Policy Research published a study on small businesses around the world and found that \u201cby every measure of small-business employment, the United States has among the world\u2019s smallest small-business sectors.\u201d People in the Netherlands, France, Germany, Sweden, Finland, Belgium and other European countries are more likely to be self-employed\u2014and the study concluded that universal healthcare is a key factor. According to CEPR\u2019s study, \u201cHigh healthcare costs discourage small business formation since start-ups in other countries can tap into government-funded healthcare systems.\u201d\n2. Comprehensive Sex Education Decreases Sexual Problems\nFor decades, social conservatives in the U.S. have insisted that comprehensive sex education promotes unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases. But in fact, comprehensive sex education (as opposed to the abstinence-only programs that are common in the American Bible Belt) decreases sexual problems, and the data bears that out in no uncertain terms. Public schools in the Netherlands have aggressive sex education programs that America\u2019s Christian Right would despise. Yet in 2009, the Netherlands had (according to the United Nations) a teen birth rate of only 5.3 per 1,000 compared to 39.1 per 1,000 in the U.S. That same year, the U.S. had three times as many adults living with HIV or AIDS as the Netherlands.\nSwitzerland, France, Germany and many other European countries also have intensive sex-ed programs and much lower teen pregnancy rates than the U.S. Still, far-right politicians in the U.S. can\u2019t get it through their heads that inadequate sex education and insufficient sexual knowledge actually promote teenage pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases instead of decreasing them.\n3. American Exceptionalism Is Absolute Nonsense\nNo matter how severe the U.S.\u2019 decline becomes, neocons and the Tea Party continue to espouse their belief in \u201cAmerican exceptionalism.\u201d But in many respects, the U.S. is far from exceptional. The U.S. is not exceptional when it comes to civil liberties (no country in the world incarcerates, per capita, more of its people than the U.S.) or healthcare (WHO ranks the U.S. #37 in terms of healthcare). Nor is the U.S. a leader in terms of life expectancy: according to the WHO, overall life expectancy in the U.S. in 2013 was 79 compared to 83 in Switzerland and Japan, 82 in Spain, France, Italy, Sweden and Canada and 81 in the Netherlands, Germany, Norway, Austria and Finland.\n4. Adequate Mass Transit Is a Huge Convenience\nWhen it comes to mass transit, Europe and Japan are way ahead of the U.S.; in only a handful of American cities is it easy to function without a car. New York City, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, DC are among the U.S.\u2019 more mass transit-oriented cities, but overall, the U.S. remains a car culture\u2014and public transportation is painfully limited in a long list of U.S. cities. Many Americans fail to realize that mass transit has numerous advantages, including less air pollution, less congestion, fewer DUIs and all the aerobic exercise that goes with living in a pedestrian-friendly environment.\n5. The Bible Was Not Written by Billionaire Hedge Fund Managers\nChristianity in its various forms can be found all over the developed world. But the U.S., more than anywhere, is where one finds a far-right version of white Protestant fundamentalism that idolizes the ultra-rich, demonizes the poor and equates extreme wealth with morality and poverty with moral failings. The problem with hating the poor in the name of Christianity is that the Bible is full of quotes that are much more in line with Franklin Delano Roosevelt than Ayn Rand\u2014like \u201cIt is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God\u201d (Mark 10:25) and \u201cThe love of money is the root of all evil\u201d (1 Timothy 6:10).\n6. Learning a Second or Third Language Is a Plus, Not a Character Flaw\nIn the Netherlands or the Scandinavian countries, becoming proficient in two or three foreign languages is viewed as a sign of intellect and sophistication. But xenophobia runs so deep among many neocons, Republicans and Tea Party wingnuts that any use of a language other than English terrifies them. Barack Obama, during his 2008 campaign, was bombarded with hateful responses from Republicans when he recommended that Americans study foreign languages from an early age. And in the 2012 GOP presidential primary, Newt Gingrich\u2019s campaign ran an ad in South Carolina attacking Mitt Romney for being proficient in French.\nIn February, an eighth-grade girl who was studying Latin in Vermont received equally clueless responses when she wrote to a state senator suggesting that Vermont adopt a Latin motto in addition to its English-language motto (not as a replacement). The wingnuts went ballistic, posting on the Facebook page of a local television station that if the girl wanted to speak Latin, she should move to Latin America.\n7. Union Membership Benefits the Economy\nIn 2014, a Gallup poll found that 53% of Americans approved of labor unions while 71% favored anti-union \u201cright to work\u201d laws. Union membership is way down in the U.S.: only 6.6% of private-sector workers, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, belonged to unions in 2014 compared to roughly 35% in the mid-1950s. The U.S.\u2019 overall unionization rate (factoring in both public-sector and private-sector workers) is 11.1%, which is quite a contrast to parts of Europe, where overall union rates range from 74% in Finland and 70% in Sweden to 35% in Italy, 19% in Spain and 18% in Germany. That is not to say unionization has not been decreasing in Europe, but overall, one finds a more pro-labor, pro-working class outlook in Europe. The fact that 47% of Americans, in that Gallup poll, consider themselves anti-union is troubling. Too many Americans naively believe that the 1% have their best interests at heart, and they fail to realize that when unions are strong and their members earn decent wages, that money goes back into the economy.\n8. Paid Maternity Leave Is the Norm in Most Developed Countries\nThe U.S. continues to lag behind the rest of the developed world when it comes to maternity leave. Paid maternity leave is strictly voluntary in the U.S., where, according to the organization Moms Rising, 51% of new mothers have no paid maternity leave at all. But government-mandated maternity leave is the norm in other developed countries, including the Netherlands (112 days at 100% pay), Italy (140 days at 80% pay), Switzerland (98 days at 80% pay) and Germany (98 days at 100% pay).\n9. Distrust of Oligarchy Is a Positive\nIn February 2015, the Emnid Polling Institute in Germany released the results of a poll that addressed economic and political conditions in that country: over 60% of the Germans surveyed believed that large corporations had too much influence on elections. ThE survey demonstrated that most Germans have a healthy distrust of crony capitalists and oligarchs who take much more than they give. Meanwhile, in the U.S., various polls show a growing distrust of oligarchy on the part of many Americans but with less vehemence than in the German Emnid poll. A 2012 poll by the Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research showed that while 62% of American voters opposed the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s disastrous Citizens United decision, only 46% strongly opposed it. And in a 2012 poll by the Corporate Reform Coalition, most Americans agreed that there was too much corporate money in U.S. politics\u2014although only 51% strongly agreed.",

        "raw_content": "We guzzle down about 600 million litres of bottled water a year. Here are the arguments for and against drinking bottled water.\nZero kilojoules\nAustralians are replacing soft drinks with bottled water and research suggests this habit is cutting our risk of obesity. Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health found that a can of soft drink a day over four years can add more than 4kg to our weight. Fruit juice is little better, with almost as many kilojoules as standard soft drinks. Grabbing a chilled bottle of water, with zero kilojoules, is a dieter\u2019s best option.\nChlorination can produce very small amounts of cancer-causing chemicals called trihalomethanes (THMs). However, the World Health Organisation says the risk of cancer from THMs is up to 1000 times less than the risk of death from bacteria in unchlorinated water. The Cancer Council of Western Australia reports that when 150 people drank water with chlorine levels ten times the NHMRC limit (during water mains disinfection) there were no side effects at all. And chlorine is not always the offender. \"The thing that people are tasting and smelling is often natural, earthy molecules like geosmin,\" says Michael Moore, director of the University of Queensland\u2019s National Research Centre for Environmental Toxicology.\n\"Aluminium is added to tap water to clarify it and chlorine is added to make it safe,\" says Tony Gentile of the Australasian Bottled Water Institute. \"It is then delivered over long distances in pipes to homes.\" Heavy metals such as copper and lead get into tap water from storage tanks and copper pipes, but are within safe limits, adds Dr Mike McLaughlin of the CSIRO. Bottled water is not entirely toxin-free either: metals tend to leach from rocks.\nA choice poll found that 16% of people bought bottled water because they thought it tasted better than tap water. However, when the UK watchdog magazine Which? asked people to take part in a blind-tasting, half could not taste the difference and 18% actually preferred the flavour of tap water. Chlorine is used to disinfect tap water and it is most often blamed for any chemical aftertaste. \"There is some minor smell from chlorine,\" says water expert Dr Peter Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute, an environmental research centre in California. \"But this actually means your tap water is safe. You want chlorine to kill off any pathogens.\"",

Also during some times in the year, they come to the park to perform their rituals. Due to their rituals and ceremonies, the Tayrona Park closes for a period of one month in each year. As this month can change, the closing time can be announced approx. 1 month in advance. This is beneficial in order to give the park and its natural space some time and peace after being visited by many tourists.\nCabo San Juan de Guia is the most visited place in the park, due to its tranquil waters and landscape. Most of the beaches in the park are not suited for swimming due to the strong currents. A passport is required in order to enter the park.\nEntrance cost for foreigners: 42.000 pesos\nEntrance cost for locals: 16.000 pesos\n- Please be aware, prices may change -\nTake a moto taxi to the main road (Troncal), from here you can wait for the only bus that drives in the direction Parque Tayrona (a medium sized white bus). While paying, mention that you are going to Parque Tayrona. The bus will stop there.\nAt the entrance of the Park, you will receive a small briefing and an explanation of how to get to the beaches.

        "raw_content": "Del. Ken Plum: Beyond Thanksgiving Day\nDel. Ken Plum November 27, 2013 at 3:30pm\nHappy Thanksgiving Day to you and your family!\nIn previous columns on this date, I have presented the historic evidence clearly establishing that the first Thanksgiving celebration took place at Berkeley Plantation in Virginia on December 4, 1619 \u2014 several years before the Pilgrims ever left England to come to Plymouth Colony.\nUnfortunately the Virginia colony did not survive to keep the tradition alive thereby forfeiting to the Pilgrims the more commonly used date for the celebration of the harvest. Setting aside this minor debate over a historic beginning, there is a much more serious debate that needs to take place as we celebrate our blessings and bounty.\nThat debate revolves around the fact that while some are celebrating and feasting on Thanksgiving a record number of people in this country are unemployed, hungry and losing hope. The shocking income inequality with the shrinking middle class over the past couple of decades is well documented. Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has become the chief spokesperson for the cause and has presented the facts very graphically and glaringly. Starting in the 1970s, one percent of Americans have been taking home 20 percent of the country\u2019s income and own 35 percent of its wealth.\nIt is easy to look at a set of numbers that point to a problem and conclude that the problem is happening someplace else and not here, but a recent report by the Commonwealth Institute for Fiscal Analysis found that the problem exists in Virginia. In a recent press release, \u201cRising Inequality Lifting Some Virginians, Sinking Others,\u201d the Institute reported that since the recession, the top 10 percent of earners (making at least $47.97 per hour) have seen their wages grow over 8 percent while the wages of the bottom 10 percent (making $8.19 or less per hour) are now over 7 percent below their pre-recession level.\n\u201cAs a result of these trends, Virginia faces record levels of inequality that threaten the state\u2019s economic stability and long-term prosperity because the middle class and low-income households that make up most of the population aren\u2019t earning enough to buy the goods and services the economy is capable of producing,\u201d according to Michael Cassidy, President and CEO of the Commonwealth Institute for Fiscal Analysis. The report also states that in 2012 the top 10 percent in Virginia made 2.7 times as much as the median worker. Only California had a greater disparity. Over the past 30 years wages for the top 10 percent of earners grew 19 times as fast as those at the bottom.\nThanks to all who contributed to Thanksgiving baskets this year, but the problem is not a one-day challenge. It is time to look beyond Thanksgiving to start to resolve the income inequality that exists in this state and country. As Reich points out, the problem is fixable.\nKen Plum has represented Reston in Virginia\u2019s House of Delegates since 1982. He can be reached at [email protected].",

        "raw_content": "The story is continued, that they were not to meddle with the Edomites, 1-8; nor with the Moabites, 9-15; nor with the Ammonites, 16-23; but Sihon the Amorite was subdued by them, 24-37.\n1 \"Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea, as the LORD spoke to me. And we compassed mount Seir many days. 2 And the LORD spoke to me, saying, 3 'You have compassed this mountain long enough. Turn northward. 4 And command the people, saying, \"You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, and they will be afraid of you. Therefore, take good heed to yourselves. 5 Do not meddle with them, for I will not give you of their land, not even so much as a foot-breadth, because I have given mount Seir to Esau for a possession. 6 You shall buy food from them with money, so that you may eat. And you shall also buy water from them with money, so that you may drink. 7 For the LORD your God has blessed you in all the works of your hand. He knows your walking through this great wilderness. These forty years the LORD your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing.\"'\n8 \"And when we passed by from our brothers, the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, and from Ezion-gaber, we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. 9 And the LORD said to me, 'Do not distress the Moabites, neither contend with them in battle, for I will not give you of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.' 10 (The Emims dwelt in it in times past, a people great, and many, and tall as the Anakims, 11 Who also were accounted Rephaim, as the Anakims, but the Moabites call them Emims. 12 The Horims also dwelt formerly in Seir, but the children of Esau succeeded them when they had destroyed them from before them and dwelt in their stead, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which the LORD gave to them.) 13 'Now rise,' I said, 'and pass over the brook Zered.' And we went over the brook Zered. 14 And the space in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we passed the brook Zered, was thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war were wasted from among the host, as the LORD swore to them. 15 For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them from among the host, until they were consumed.\n16 \"So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people, 17 That the LORD spoke to me, saying, 18 'You are to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day. 19 And when you come near over against the children of Ammon, do not distress them, nor meddle with them, for I will not give you of the land of the children of Ammon any possession, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.' 20 (That also was accounted a land of Rephaim. Rephaim dwelt in it in old time, and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims, 21 A people great, and many, and tall as the Anakims, but the LORD destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them and dwelt in their stead, 22 As he did to the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir when he destroyed the Horims from before them, and they succeeded them and dwelt in their stead even to this day. 23 And the Avims who dwelt in Hazerim even to Azzah, the Caphtorims, who came forth from Caphtor, destroyed them and dwelt in their stead.) 24 'Arise, take your journey and pass over the Arnon River. Behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to possess it and contend with him in battle. 25 This day I will begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you upon the nations who are under the whole heaven, who shall hear report of you, shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.'\n26 \"And I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying, 27 'Let me pass through your land. I will go along by the highway. I will neither turn to the right hand nor to the left. 28 You shall sell me food for money, so that I may eat, and give me water for money, so that I may drink. Only let me pass through on my feet 29 (As the children of Esau who dwell in Seir and the Moabites who dwell in Ar did to me), until I pass over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God gives us.' 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for the LORD your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, so that he might deliver him into your hand, as appears this day. 31 And the LORD said to me, 'Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before you. Begin to possess, so that you may inherit his land.'\n32 \"Then Sihon came out against us\u2014he and all his people\u2014to fight at Jahaz. 33 And the LORD our God delivered him before us, and we smote him, his sons, and all his people. 34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, the women, and the little ones of every city. We left no one to remain. 35 Only the cattle we took for plunder to ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took. 36 From Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is by the river, even to Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us. The LORD our God delivered all to us. 37 Only to the land of the children of Ammon you did not come, nor to any place of the Jabbok River, nor to the cities on the mountains, nor to whatever the LORD our God had forbidden us.\"\nMatthew Henry Commentary - Deuteronomy, Chapter 2",

        "raw_content": "Market Insight - The combined future of Finance and Sustainability\nIs growth sustainable? Since the 1970s, society has been aware that we are living in a world with finite resources. This scarcity of raw materials is inevitably causing a loss of economic momentum, which is in line not only with a Newtonian mechanistic outlook, but is conversely in keeping with the law of entropy and, more specifically, the second law of thermodynamics. Growth is sustainable, then, only if it preserves natural capital and incorporates environmental and social aspects alongside its economic dimension. This form of growth is none other than sustainable development, in other words a development \u201cthat meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs\u201d.\nSustainable development has been a major focus since the 1987 Brundtland report and the Rio Earth Summit in 1992, creating 380 million jobs and $12,000 billion of value by 2030. For partisans of weak or strong sustainability, innovation plays a central role and is inseparable from sustainable development. This is known as eco-innovation, an important strategic source of competitiveness for companies, allowing them to cut costs, offer new avenues for growth and boost their credentials by improving their image with customers. Sustainability is transcending national borders to become an international phenomenon. On 8 March 2018, the European Union unveiled its action plan for financing sustainable growth. The EU roadmap has three objectives: redirecting capital flows to a more sustainable and inclusive economy, incorporating sustainability in financial risk management, and promoting transparency and sustainable investing. Europe currently has an annual investment shortfall of nearly EUR 180 billion, to achieve its objectives by 2030 the European Commission is seeking to overhaul the financial sector, so that this major promoter of economic development helps to support sustainable development. By prioritising environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria in financing and investment decisions, finance and sustainability combine to produce sustainable finance.",

        "raw_content": "In some ways, singer Toshi Reagon is a throwback to classic R & B artists, like Stevie Wonder or Prince, or an old school rock group like Led Zeppelin; she can take any style, update it, and make it her own with incredible ease. Despite (or because of) her genre-bending, Toshi fits comfortably on a stage at Carnegie Hall, or in a dirty rock club. Toshi is an artist whose known for energetic performances and a exemplary gift for writing engaging songs that provoke listeners to think and have fun at the same time.\nA seasoned live performer, Toshi jumped into the spotlight when she dropped out of college after Lenny Kravitz tapped her to open for him on his first world tour. And Toshi hasn\u2019t stopped earning the respect of musicians, the praise of critics and the love of fans since then. Just ask Elvis Costello, who was hooked after one high-energy evening in NYC\u2014he even invited Toshi and her band, BigLovely, to back him up on a Late Show with David Letterman appearance.\nToshi can (and will) show up anywhere with anyone, whether a Central Park Summerstage benefit/Joni Mitchell tribute with artists like Vernon Reid and Chaka Kahn, a tribute to Prince (in which she tore up the stage with her smokin\u2019 verison of the classic \u201c1999\u201d), the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, or the Blood On The Tracks Concert in NYC celebrating the 25th anniversary of the legendary Bob Dylan album. She has also shared the stage with numerous musicians including Nona Hendryx, Pete Seeger, Chocolate Genius, Dar Williams and Ani. Whether playing solo or with her band, her fusion of styles and forms draws listeners in, embraces them and sets them off in a rapturous, hand-raising, foot-stomping delight.\nBorn in Atlanta and raised in Washington DC, Reagon cites her musical abilities from her family. Both parents belonged to SNCC\u2019s (Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee) The Freedom Singers, a folk group that sprung from the Civil Rights movement and toured the country to teach people about civil rights through song. Bernice Johnson Reagon is not only Toshi\u2019s mom but the founder of the world-renowned a capella ensemble Sweet Honey In The Rock (she retired in 2004 after 30 years with the group). Toshi and her mom have collaborated on many projects together, including co-producing many of Sweet Honey\u2019s recordings.\nHer rich musical heritage led her to become saturated in many traditional styles, feeding her desire to explore a range of music from blues to rock. Admittedly, Toshi says that she attempts to \u201ctake whatever I\u2019m really into and try to learn it and put it into music.\u201d This trait results in a musical style that not only transcends classification, but also expresses a political consciousness that is as ingrained in her music as the multiple genres she embraces. Believing music is the way she deals with her political energy, Toshi once told Curve magazine, \u201cFrom where you are, from who you are in your everyday life, that\u2019s where you make change. ...Whatever your gig is, make change through your strength.\u201d\nFor the latest scoop on Toshi Reagon, check out her web site: www.ToshiReagon.com",

        "title": "Type 2 Diabetes | Riley Children's Health",
        "raw_content": "Type 2 diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (a hormone that helps the body use sugar for energy) or the body does not effectively use the insulin that is produced\u2014or a combination of both. The inability to produce or use the body's insulin causes high blood sugar. In children, Type 2 diabetes often occurs around puberty.\nThe good news is your diabetes can be treated. There are a few things you\u2019ll need to do, and your parents and your diabetes team can help you.\nView Child-Friendly Explanation\nThe symptoms of Type 2 diabetes may include:\nUnexplained weight loss (particularly in an overweight child)\nChildren with Type 2 diabetes often show no symptoms of the condition. For this reason, the primary care provider must look for risk factors that can lead to Type 2 diabetes. The most common risk factors include obesity and a family history of Type 2 diabetes. A doctor can use the following blood tests to make a diagnosis:\nHemoglobin A1c. A hemoglobin A1c blood test provides your child's average blood sugar levels over a period of two to three months. High levels of A1c are a sign of poor blood sugar control and indicate the presence of diabetes.\nRandom blood sugar test. A blood sugar test is performed at a random time. A normal result is based on when your child last ate.\nFasting blood sugar test. A fasting blood sugar test measures your child's blood sugar levels after he or she has not had anything to eat or drink (except plain water) for at least eight hours.\nInsulin injections. Fifty percent of children diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes require insulin. Insulin can be given with syringes, insulin pens or an insulin pump. Parents or guardians should help young children with their insulin injections. As children get older, they can learn to inject themselves.\nMedicines. Several medicines are available to treat Type 2 diabetes in children. The medicines work in different ways. Some decrease insulin resistance while others increase insulin production. There are also medicines that slow the absorption of carbohydrates.\nDiabetes management. Diabetes management involves a lifestyle change. You or your child will test his or her blood sugar several times a day using a blood glucose meter and record the results in a logbook. Your child should also follow a meal plan, making sure to eat three meals and possibly a few snacks each day. If your child takes insulin, it is important to count the number of carbohydrates eaten at meal and snack times so the appropriate amount of insulin can be given. In addition, getting enough exercise and reducing stress will help your child's body use insulin. As your child gets older, he or she will learn to manage the condition independently with your continued supervision.\nContinued monitoring by your child's healthcare team. The diabetes specialists at Riley at IU Health recommend your child see his or her healthcare team every three to four months for continued health monitoring. The following health evaluations are performed during these visits:\nGrowth and weight gain. Your child's height and weight are plotted on a growth chart at each visit to monitor his or her growth. Children whose diabetes is in control should grow normally.\nHemoglobin A1c test. The same blood test that is used to diagnose diabetes is also used to keep track of your child's average blood sugar levels after diagnosis. This test will be done each time your child visits the doctor.\nThyroid function test. Children with Type 2 diabetes are at an increased risk for developing thyroid conditions. A test to check if your child's thyroid is functioning normally will be performed every two years.\nCholesterol test. High blood glucose levels can affect cholesterol levels. High cholesterol levels can contribute to heart disease. Your child's cholesterol levels will be checked every four years\u2014more often if they are high.\nUrine microalbumin test. High blood sugar concentrations over a long period of time can result in the thickening of kidney membranes. When this happens, protein abnormally leaks into the urine. Once your child turns 10 or has had diabetes for five years, a urine microalbumin test is performed each year to monitor for signs of kidney problems.\nLiver enzyme test. High blood sugar concentrations over a long period of time can result in liver problems. Your child\u2019s liver enzymes will be checked yearly or more often if needed.\nBlood pressure check. Children with Type 2 diabetes are at increased risk for developing high blood pressure at a young age. Your child\u2019s blood pressure will be checked at each clinic visit.\nDental exam. High blood sugar can predispose children to periodontal disease. Although all children should have their teeth examined every six months, this is especially important for children with Type 2 diabetes.\nEye exam. Long periods of high blood sugar can damage the tiny vessels in the eyes leading to poor vision. Children with Type 2 diabetes should see an ophthalmologist at least once a year.\nYearly influenza vaccine. Influenza can make diabetes management very difficult and can result in emergency room visits or hospitalization.

        "raw_content": "Revisiting the first galvanized bridge in North America\nBridges Article By Melissa Lindsley February 02, 2018\nNestled along the shoreline of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Grand River lies the small community of Grand Haven, Mich.\nGrand Haven is the heart of Ottawa County, where more than 65% of the county\u2019s area is covered by water. So, as you weave around the small community, flush with trees and waterways, it is no surprise to see an abundance of bridges. Amongst the network of bridges, you will find one, the Stearns Bayou Bridge, with quite a unique story to tell.\nStearns Bayou is one of many bayous feeding off the Grand River throughout Ottawa County. The area around Stearns Bayou is a nice mix of the past and the present. On one side sits Felix\u2019s Marina and Gun Shop, a family-owned business operating on the bayou since 1929, while the opposite side of the water is dotted with contemporary homes. As you cross over the bridge along Green Street, it is common to see boats on the water or fishermen along the sidewalk. However, what many may not realize as they cross the bayou is they are traveling on a piece of North American history.\nThe 420-ft-long Stearns Bayou Bridge, dedicated on Aug. 31, 1966, to replace an old one-lane wooden bridge, is the first hot-dip galvanized steel bridge constructed in the U.S. Hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) is the process of dipping fabricated steel into a kettle (vat) of molten zinc to produce an abrasion-resistant, corrosion-inhibiting coating. While galvanizing had been used to combat corrosion for more than a century, in 1966, utilizing galvanized steel in bridge construction was an innovative, untested approach. Some of the installation was done when the bayou was frozen, and trucks drove on the ice below. When Ottawa County Engineer Frank Brechting, Jr. designed the bridge with hot-dip galvanized steel, he was not chasing history, he was simply making a decision based on long-term economics.\nThe 420-ft-long Bayou Bridge is the first hot-dip galvanized steel bridge constructed in the U.S.\nThe Stearns Bayou Bridge consists of eight spans: two 60-ft and six 50-ft sections of 30-in., 108-lb rolled steel beams. In addition to the superstructure, all fasteners, handrails, diaphragms, shear connectors and fittings were hot-dip galvanized. When Brechting decided to specify hot-dip galvanizing, he believed galvanizing would provide the bridge maintenance-free corrosion protection for the first 25 years of its life. Considering the relatively small premium ($150 in 1966) to specify hot-dip galvanizing instead of paint, he knew the taxpayers would recoup the money over the life-cycle of the bridge. In fact, estimates at the time, based on a 20-year paint cycle and 5% inflation, showed the first paint maintenance would have cost approximately $17,250\u2014a cost not necessary if the bridge was galvanized.\nThroughout the years, Brechting\u2019s beliefs have held true. In 1991, at the 25-year anniversary of the bridge opening, an extensive inspection was conducted. To date, no maintenance had been done to the hot-dip galvanized coating. Visual observations on the underside of the bridge, both from the water and road sides, did not find any signs of corrosion or staining. During the inspection, it was noted that galvanizing had been particularly effective at the splice joints and bolted connections, critical areas which tend to fall victim to crevice corrosion on painted bridges of the same age. The railings on the top side of the bridge had begun to show weathering and some brown staining, most likely due to the road salts used to treat the roads and snow that may have been plowed onto the railings.\nDuring the 1991 inspection, approximately 500 coating thickness measurements were taken at various locations along the bridge. At that time, the main structural beams had an average zinc coating thickness of 6.2 mils, with a minimum of 4 mils and a maximum of 10.5 mils. The other elements of the bridge, such as diaphragms, bearing pads, etc., had an average of 3.7 mils, and the railings (despite the staining) had an average coating thickness of 3.34 mils. Based on those measurements, and the corrosion data available at the time, estimates held that the bridge beams would not need maintenance for another 90 years, while the other elements (railings, diaphragms, etc.) would not require maintenance for another 50 years.\nThe historic bridge was dedicated on Aug. 31,1966, to replace an old one-lane wooden bridge.\nNow, a third look\nIn August 2017, nearly 51 years to the day it was dedicated, the Stearns Bayou Bridge was once again inspected. During the visit, the American Galvanizers Association (AGA) interviewed current Ottawa County Road Commission Project Engineer Brandt Homik about the performance of the bridge.\nHomik stated the bridge deck had been recently replaced, but no maintenance has been done to the hot-dip galvanized coating. During the visual inspection, no corrosion was apparent on the superstructure beams or underside of the bridge; in fact, the galvanized steel still bore a spangled appearance. The railings on the top side of the bridge still showed significant signs of weathering and brown staining, but no red rust. Coating thickness measurements were taken on the deck rail, fascia stringer and stringers underneath the deck. The average zinc coating thickness for the rails was 3.31 mils, showing minimal change from the 25-year inspection despite the aesthetic staining. The fascia stringer had an average of 5.98 mils, and the interior stringers an average of 5.63 mils. Based on those readings, current corrosion data, and the rural environment where the bridge is located, this would suggest the bridge will not require maintenance for at least another 70 years\u2014easily passing the 100-year bridge mark, which is a popular target today.\nThe performance of the Stearns Bayou Bridge has shaped the Ottawa County Road Commission\u2019s view of hot-dip galvanized steel. In fact, Homik noted the performance of the Stearns bridge directly affected the decision to hot-dip galvanize the reconstruction of the nearby Fruitport Road (Petty\u2019s Bayou) Bridge in 2008. That 417-ft bridge was originally built in 1948, and has nine spans; seven 54.7-ft spans and two 17-ft spans. During the reconstruction of the bridge in 2008, the original beams were removed, shot-blasted and then hot-dip galvanized before being replaced on the newly constructed bridge. The bridge also was widened to include a pedestrian path, which required the use of an additional (new) beam on each span.\nThe Stearns Bayou Bridge (1966) and Fruitport Road Bridge (2008) should shatter the long-held notion that hot-dip galvanized steel can only be used in short-span bridges. Although there are girder and beam limitations based on the size of the hot-dip galvanizing bath, simple design alterations can be specified to work with spans sized for the galvanizing kettle. In addition to building in sub-units that fit the galvanizing bath in one pass, it is possible to progressively dip the steel\u2014coat one side, rehang and coat the other\u2014to allow for longer spans. With the continued focus on building 100-year bridges, these two Ottawa County structures are real-world examples of how to accomplish that with hot-dip galvanized steel.\nAfter more than 50 years, the Stearns Bayou Bridge stands as a testament to the maintenance-free longevity of hot-dip galvanized steel. The life-cycle cost savings of hot-dip galvanizing, which weighed into the initial decision to use galvanizing, have far exceeded the original engineer\u2019s projections. Furthermore, based on the current coating measurements and visual inspection of the bridge, taxpayers will continue to benefit from Brechting\u2019s decision for decades to come. Regardless of how the scenic community of Grand Haven evolves in the next 25 years, one thing is certain: The first hot-dip galvanized steel bridge in the U.S. will be unchanged, still providing safe, maintenance-free transport across Stearns Bayou.\nLindsley is marketing director for the American Galvanizers Association.\nRB-Bridges,RB-Bridge Construction,RB-Maintenance",

        "raw_content": "Yaacov Agam, Israeli (1928 - )\nAgam is one of the pioneer creators of the kinetic movement in art as well as its most outstanding contemporary representative. Agam was born in 1928 a son of a Rabbi of Rishon LeZion (Israel), who devoted his life to the study of Jewish religious matters and wrote books. Agam considers himself somehow as a visual continuation of his father's quest for spirituality. Agam studied at the Bezalel Academy of Art in Jerusalem, and in Switzerland at the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule and the Zurich University. After arriving to Paris in 1951, Agam held his first one man exhibition with a great success in 1953 This exhibition consisted totally of kinetic, movable and transformable paintings, which actually was the first one-man show in art history exclusively devoted to kinetic art.\nA passionate experimenter, Agam deals with such problems as the 4th dimension, simultaneity and time in the visual, plastic arts, and has extended his experiments to application in the fields of literature, music and art theory.\nHis works express a concept that breaks away with the established way of expressing reality in limited, static way. In his works, he strives to demonstrate the principle of reality as a continuous \"becoming\" rather than static \"graven image.\" His paintings \"Double Metamorphosis 11\" in the Museum of Modern Art in New York and \"Transparent Rhythms 11 \"in the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. give the best example of his polymorphic painting. His works are placed in many public places including \"Communication x 9\" on the Michigan Avenue in Chicago (1983), \"Communication: Night and Day\" at the AT&T building in New York (1974), \"Super Lines Volumes\" at the Pare Floral in Paris (1971), and his murals \"Peace\" and \"Life\" arc installed at the Parliament of Europe in Strasbourg (1977).\nAgam has expressed the new concepts in monumental works as in his \"Jacob's Ladder\" which forms the ceiling of the National Convention House in Jerusalem He created a \"floating museum\", including all the artworks for public areas and cabins, for the Carnival Cruise Line's luxury cruise ship \"Celebration\" (1 987). His fire-water fountain in Dizengoff Square in Tel Aviv (1986) streams water, fire, and music -elements of flux and life which cannot be static - as its colored elements rotate in this multidimensional monumental work.\nFor the Elysee Palace in Paris, with the request of President Georges Pompidou Agam created in 1972 a whole environmental of the Salon with the walls covered with polymorphic murals of changing images a kinetic ceiling, moving transparent colored doors and a kinetic carpet on which he placed a sculpture. It embraces viewers: they are no longer looking at a framed, fixed scene, but rather arc moving within an artistic space which changes constantly according to their shifting position and point of view. Similar attempt was made for the concert hall, Forum Leverkusen in Germany in 1970.\nAgam created many environmental sculptures, including \"Hundred Gates\" in the garden of the residence of the President of Israel in Jerusalem, \"3 x 3 Interplay\" installed at the Julliard School of Music at the Lincoln Center and \"Wings of the Heart\" at J. F. Kennedy airport in New York. In 1984 he made a sculpture \"Beating Heart\" for the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem. In 1988 he created a transparent torah ark for the Hebrew Union College in New York, and monumental multidimensional sculpture at the Crystal Palace Hotel in Nassau, Bahamas.\nIn 1987, he created a memorial at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem for the victims of the holocaust. In 1991 he created a sculpture 'Tree of Life\" and a room for meditation at the Haidrah Yeshiva at the Wailing Wall Plaza in Jerusalem. He also made 14 stained glass windows for the Holocaust study center of Emunah Women of America building in Jerusalem.\nIn the new district of La Defense in Paris, Agam created a monumental musical fountain (1977), with its pool made of polymorphic mosaic surface. It is comprised of 66 vertical water jets shooting water up to 14 meters; the fountain was further enhanced with the addition of five new triple tulip jets in 1991. Another fire-water fountain was inaugurated in 1991 at the Tampa Convention Center in Florida. Other monumental works, include the painting of the entire building facade of Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles (1984) and 36-poor Villa Regina building in Florida (1983) He made a large mural for Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York, commission gained through an international competition, in 1984.\nHis kinetic sculpture \"Star of Peace\" was presented as the Ben-Gurion Award for an Outstanding Contribution to Understanding Between the Peoples of the Middle East to President Anwar Sadat, Prime Minister Menachem Begin and President Jimmy Carter in 1979.\nAgam has delivered lectures concerning his theories and experiments at many art schools, conventions, universities and museums, and during the year of 1968 he was a guest-lecturer at Harvard University, where he conducted a seminar and course \"Advanced Exploration in Visual Communication\", International recognition has been widespread: Prize for Artistic Research at the Sao Paolo Biennale (1963), Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et Lettres (1974), Honorary Doctorate of Philosophy, Tel Aviv University (1975), Medal of the Council of Europe (1977), Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et Lettres (1985), Sandberg Prize from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem (1985), Palette d'Or at the International Festival at Cagnes-surMer (1985), and most recently the Grand Prize at the First International Biennale in Nagoya, Japan, ARTECH '89 (1989).\nHe has participated in shows all over the world and has had many one-man exhibitions, including the retrospective exhibition held at the Musee National d'art Modeme in Paris (1972), which was then shown at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, Stadtische Kunsthalle in Dusseldorf, and Tel Aviv Museum. Another large-scale retrospective exhibit was held at the Guggenheim Museum in New York (1980). He had a large one-man exhibition at the Museum ofPontoise (1975), the Palm Spring Desert Museum, California, on an occasion of the inauguration of the museum (1976), the Museum of Art Birmingham, Alabama (1976), the Museo de Arte Modemo, Mexico (1976), the National Museum of Art, Cape Town, South Africa (1977). The retrospective exhibition was held at the lsetan Museum in Tokyo, Daimaru Museum in Osaka and Kawasaki City Museum in Japan (1989), and at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires Argentina (1996). He also held an exhibition \"Selected Suites\" at the Jewish Museum, New York (1975). Agam has also had many one-man shows in art galleries since 1953, including Denise Rene Gallery, Paris (1956), MarIborough-Gerson Gallery, New York (1966), Gallery Denise Rene, New York (1971) and a series of one man exhibits all over the United States at the Circle Fine Art Galleries.\nHis visual education method and non-verbal educational system, meant to increase the creative and intellectual abilities of the children by the usage of visual alphabet as a mother tongue, is implemented in pre-schools and kindergartens in Israel. In 1996, Agam was awarded the Jan Amos Comenius Medal 1996 from the UNESCO \"for having devised a particularly effective method of visual teaching for children.\"\nCopyright \u00a9 2003 Agam, All Rights Reserved.",

The show \u2014 his first-ever concert in the New York borough \u2014 was a mixture of the very old and very new. He didn\u2019t play a single song from the 1970s, 1980s or 1990s. In fact, he split it nearly down the middle with eight songs from the 2000s and nine from the 1960s. Highlights included tender takes on the anti-war tracks \u201cJohn Brown\u201d and \u201cMasters of War,\u201d a rollicking \u201cThunder on the Mountain\u201d and a beautiful \u201cGirl From the North Country.\u201d\nThe bluesy arrangements of his current group \u2014 which includes BR549\u2019s multi-instrumentalist Donnie Herron \u2014 grow a little repetitious at times, though they sounded amazing when they kicked into rockers like \u201cHighway 61 Revisited.\u201d (Still, the vocal harmonies and slick guitar work of his late-\u201990s/early-\u201900s bandmates Charlie Sexton and Larry Campbell are missed.) At the end of the final encore of \u201cBlowing in the Wind,\u201d Dylan stepped away from his keyboard for the first time all night and stood center stage with his band, grinning from ear to ear while gesturing with his hands. It may not have been the greatest show of the 20 years and going Never Ending Tour, but he certainly seemed pleased with it.\nIn This Article: Bob Dylan,\tBrooklyn,\tNever Ending Tour,\tProspect Park",

        "raw_content": "Government and Politics in Sri Lanka\nBiopolitics and Security, 1st Edition\nBy A. R. Sriskanda Rajah\nThe island of Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon) was one of the few Asian colonies in which the British Empire experimented liberal state-building in the nineteenth century, and where many British colonial officials predicted that the independent state would become a liberal democratic success story. Sri Lanka has held on to much of the liberal democratic state-institutions left behind by the British Empire, including periodic elections. At the same time, the UN\u2019s Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights concluded in September 2015 that there are reasonable grounds to believe that Sri Lanka committed serious international crimes against the Tamils. Such accusations are usually levelled against authoritarian states; it is unusual for a democracy to face such charges.\nThis book analyses where Sri Lanka stands as a state that has in place liberal democratic state-institutions but exhibits the characteristics of an authoritarian state. Using Michel Foucault\u2019s concept of biopolitics, the author argues that Sri Lanka enacted racist legislations and perpetrated mass-atrocities on the Tamils as part of its biopolitics of institutionalising and securing a Sinhala-Buddhist ethnocratic state-order. The book also explores the ways that, apart from military action, power relations produce the effects of battle, and thus the way that peace can often become a means of waging war. The author provides fresh insights into Sri Lanka\u2019s postcolonial policies and the system of government that it has in place.\nA novel approach to analysing Sri Lanka\u2019s postcolonial policies and the system of government, this book will be of interests to researchers in the field of Political Science, Asian Politics and International Relations.\n1.

        "raw_content": "Home / Blog / Balancing the Concussion Hype\nLooking at both sides of the sensationalism\nOver the past few years, the media has kept concussions, particularly with respect to football, in the headlines \u2013 some would argue ad nauseum. But the truth is, the press attention and research into causes, long-term effects and prevention is provoking both good and bad outcomes.\nThe best outcome is the awareness being brought to the general public about diagnosis, second-impact syndrome, removal, and return-to-play policies. Players who have been clocked are no longer being told to \u201cjust suck it up.\u201d There are now concussion laws on the books in all 50 states and the District of Columbia and required concussion training for youth coaches and athletic trainers.\nHowever, there is definitely a downside to the hysteria, according to Rance A. Boren, a Texas neurologist. \u201cThe notion that everyone who plays football going to be mentally unstable in 15 years is just not true,\u201d he said.\nBoren points out that the majority of sports concussion research has focused on professional and college level athletes, not high school athletes. This generally points to the number of hits a player sustains over a period of time, as opposed to the force of a few hits. A player with a decade-long professional career preceded by four years of college ball who likely also played youth football is an example of someone at risk for the long-term injuries frequently seen in the media. The kid who started playing football at 12 and stopped after three or four years of high school ball is hardly ever in that risk category.\nIt\u2019s important to understand that CTE is not a risk associated with young football athletes \u2013 only a small fraction of NFL and college players exhibit its effects. CTE is not caused by a single or even multiple concussions that have been properly treated. The word chronic in CTE means the trauma resulted from multiple sub-concussive brain injuries sustained over a long period of time. CTE is usually something boxers or NFL linemen might experience after sustaining thousands of blows to the head over the course of their careers.\nHowever, second-impact syndrome and unreported concussions resulting in subsequent injuries are more common at the high school level. Susceptibility to second-impact syndrome is biological. Boren explains that \u201cmetabolic buffering syntheses\u201d haven\u2019t been able to reset. So if you are hit again during that short period between an initial hit and recovery, then you are going to do more damage. If you are then hit again, then you do even more damage.\u201d\nIt\u2019s for this reason that the University Interscholastic League instituted a 10-day return-to-play rule. The 10-day period begins after all symptoms of concussion have subsided. Returning to play too soon can affect reaction time and vision, which leaves players vulnerable to other injuries.\nWe invite you to read our many articles on concussions and concussions relating to football\nSource: Travis M.

In the last 12 months, at least two people have filed lawsuits in Cook County Circuit Court against the hospital alleging sexual assaults at the adult building, including a woman who said an employee followed her into a bathroom and raped her. Both lawsuits are pending.\nThis year alone, state regulators conducted inspections three times at the hospital, in July, August and this month. During the July inspection, public health inspectors faulted the hospital for having doors that posed a suicide risk. They also found that the hospital did not collect samples for a rape kit after a patient alleged she was sexually assaulted, failed to complete required safety checks and did not obtain informed consent from patients before administering psychotropic medications, according to a July 27 report obtained through an open records request....\"\nClick here to read the full article on the ProPublica Illinois website.",

        "raw_content": "Douglas H. Turner\nThe research in Professor Turner's group focuses on the forces directing nucleic acid chemistry, with particular emphasis on RNA folding. This chemistry is important for life and for design of therapeutics. Nevertheless, much of it is not well understood. Studies of the properties of short oligonucleotides and related computational studies provide insight into the interactions determining the sequence dependence of the structures, energetics, and dynamics of nucleic acids.\nInsight into the structures of large RNAs are provided by experiments that provide: (1) NMR spectra and (2) chemical reactivity of individual nucleotides. This information is incorporated into computer programs to predict the secondary and three-dimensional structure of an RNA. The results from these studies are providing the foundation for a bioinformatics approach to develop deeper interpretations of the many nucleic acid sequences determined by the Human Genome Project and other sequencing efforts. Binding of RNA to oligonucleotides in a microarray is providing information to facilitate design of therapeutics to target RNA.\nThe solutions to these challenging problems require many different clues. The group therefore applies the methods of UV and NMR spectroscopies, thermodynamics, computational chemistry, oligonucleotide synthesis, chemical and microarray mapping of RNA structure, and rapid reaction kinetics. By combining the results obtained from these various techniques, it is often possible to deduce unifying concepts for the nucleic acid chemistry.\nThe goal of the Turner group is to predict RNA secondary and 3D structure from sequence.\nE.

        "raw_content": "LP 380- Slimline Digital Piano \u2013 Beauuuuuuuuuudiful\u2026..\nMusic is one of the best things you can ever teach your kids.\nRecent research has found that music uses both sides of the brain, a fact that makes it valuable in all areas of development. Music affects the growth of a child\u2019s brain academically, emotionally, physically and spiritually.\nMusic is academic. For some people, this is the primary reason for providing music lessons to their children. A recent study from the University of California found that music trains the brain for higher forms of thinking. Year 7\u2019s who were given music lessons scored 27% higher on proportional maths and fractions tests than children who received no special instruction. Research indicates that musical training permanently wires a young mind for enhanced performance.\nMusic is emotional. Music is an art form. We are emotional beings and every child requires an artistic outlet. Music may be your child\u2019s vehicle of expression.\nMusic is for life. Most people can\u2019t play soccer, or cricket at 70 or 80 years of age but they can sing. And they can play piano or some other instrument. Music is a gift you can give your child that will last their entire lives.\nAnd Piano, is one of the most instinctive instruments for children. It\u2019s immediate and physical.\nWithin 1 minute you can show a child a simple nursery rhyme to play.\nSo, why doesn\u2019t every family have a piano in the house?\nBecause most people remember pianos as the old stand-up acoustic pianos of old.\nMany people will remember how heavy and cumbersome and loud these things were\u2026..\nThe LP380 from Korg has been designed slimmer than ever to take up minimal space in your home, whilst delivering the very best in Grand Piano sound.\nIts only 26 cm deep !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nYou could fit this in a hall, or a landing and still have plenty of room to walk by, it could fit neatly into most spaces, and because its digital, you never have to hear it if you don\u2019t want to, just clamp a pair of headphones on, and the player sits in glorious silence, whilst in their head the music is swimming all around.\nThe truth is, there\u2019s never been a better time to buy a Piano for the home, and the new LP-380 is the perfect solution.\nLet\u2019s take a look at the spec\u2026\u2026.\nThe LP-380 provides brilliant piano sound in a low-profile, slim design. The flat-top cabinet looks stylish even when the key cover is closed. The high-output amplifier and speakers accurately reproduce a realistic piano sound, while Korg\u2019s flagship RH3 keybed enables expressive performances.\nThe LP-380 is a digital piano that\u2019s designed with a style to match your interior d\u00e9cor. Merely 26 cm in depth, it\u2019s slim enough to fit anywhere. The wooden key cover is flat on top, allowing the instrument to blend elegantly into your room when you\u2019re not playing it. Keeping safety in mind, the cover uses a soft landing mechanism to ensure that it closes gently. The slim and stylish chassis projects a sense of stability. The RH3 keyboard, three pedals, and large-diameter speakers ensure a superb piano-playing experience and rich piano sound. Choose from two colors to match the atmosphere of your room: black or white\nRich piano sounds that you\u2019ll enjoy playing\nIn order to reproduce the playing feel of an acoustic piano as closely as possible, the sound switches between four piano samples according to your playing dynamics. From subtle touches to powerful crescendos, the sound will respond realistically to your playing. In particular, the Classic Piano and Grand Piano sounds realistically reproduce the damper resonances that occur when you hold down the damper pedal of an acoustic piano, making the overall sound of the piano even more pleasant and enjoyable to play.\nAs a musical instrument manufacturer, Korg has placed particular emphasis on the electric piano sounds. They reproduce not only the way that the tone responds to your touch, but also the subtle noises that occur when you release a key. Six varieties are provided, covering the sounds widely used in pop music of the \u201960s and \u201970s, as well as some of the tones that are highly regarded in soul music.\nStarting with piano and electric piano, there are a total of thirty expressive and high-quality sounds built in. There\u2019s also a Layer Mode that lets you play two sounds together, and a Partner Mode that divides the keyboard into left and right regions so that two people can play the same range of pitches at the same time. Two headphone jacks make it convenient for two people to enjoy playing the LP-380 together. You also have a choice of nine different temperaments, supporting historically authentic performances with period instrument ensembles.\nHigh-output amp and speaker section for powerful sound\nReal Weighted Hammer Action 3 Keyboard provides a superb playing feel\nThe Real Weighted Hammer Action 3 (RH3) keyboard reproduces the same playing experience as on a grand piano, with heavier response in the lower register that becomes lighter as you play upward. With improved response to repeated keystrokes, even rapid passages can be reproduced without impairing the expression of the performer. There\u2019s also a Key Touch Control function that lets you choose one of three levels to specify how your playing dynamics will affect the sound, allowing you to personalize the instrument to your own keyboard touch. With a view toward the environment, no lead is used in the hammers of the keyboard.\nIn consideration of the user\u2019s possible need to move or relocate the instrument, the LP-380 has been lightened by approximately 5.0 kg in comparison to the previous model (LP-350), making it easier to move or transport, as well as making assembly safer.\nThe LP-380 includes all three pedals normally found on a concert grand piano, including support for realistic half-pedaling on both the damper and soft pedals. These pedals are affixed to the LP-380 in the perfect position for a true piano playing experience.\nPrevious PostThe Portable Ideas Machine- Korg KROSSNext PostROLAND HD3- Compact, Bijou and very, very Cool\u2026\u2026.",

At 342 square miles, the county consists of eight towns and four villages, and also includes segments of 10 different school districts. The 2010 census revealed the county\u2019s population to be 18,343.\nThe county seat is located in the Village of Watkins Glen and is situated at the southern tip of Seneca Lake in the heart of the Finger Lakes region. The Schuyler County economy is driven by agriculture and tourism, with major draws being the Watkins Glen State Park, the Finger Lakes wine trails, and the racetrack at Watkins Glen International.\nSchuyler County Assessing Overview\nAs in most counties in New York State, the assessing function is a municipal responsibility controlled by the towns. However, Schuyler County has been a leader in developing shared service relationships among the various towns, villages, and school districts, and all eight towns contract with the county for assessment services. The product of this municipal cooperation has resulted in a substantial cost savings along with more equitable assessment rolls. All of the county\u2019s towns have committed to updating assessments annually to ensure fairness.",

        "raw_content": "Authenticity now the attribute craved by national Democrats\nWASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Beto O\u2019Rourke\u2019s response to a question during a Houston town hall meeting this past summer lasted only four minutes. But for some Democrats it said everything. It was authentic.\nIn an exchange that quickly went viral, the Democrat congressman and Senate hopeful was asked whether he found NFL players who knelt during the national anthem to be disrespectful. A passionate O\u2019Rourke told the room of Texans, not necessarily a sympathetic crowd, that he could \u201cthink of nothing more American than to peacefully stand up, or take a knee, for your rights.\u201d\nClips of his answer were viewed millions of times online, generating buzz in O\u2019Rourke\u2019s uphill battle against Republican Sen. Ted Cruz.\nFor national Democrats, it was the type of moment that epitomized a common buzzword in Democratic circles \u2014 \u201cauthenticity\u201d \u2014 and the push to present candidates in a more open, unvarnished manner offering a window to their values.\nOne of the widely accepted lessons from Democrat Hillary Clinton\u2019s loss in 2016 to Republican Donald Trump was that voters gravitate toward candidates they perceive as real, even if flawed. They\u2019re drawn to politicians willing to deliver unexpected candor.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think politicians give voters enough credit for the fact that people want to know who you are, what you stand for and what your values are,\u201d said Karen Finney, a Democratic strategist. \u201cEven if they disagree with you, if they think you\u2019re coming from a principled position, they can respect that.\u201d\nIn an effort to deliver that authenticity this election season, the party has tried to assemble a group of candidates with nontraditional backgrounds. They\u2019ve recruited veterans, women and politicians with diverse histories. They\u2019ve encouraged them to talk openly about their lives in ads and to make casual, unscripted social media posts.\nThere\u2019s no hiding that some of this effort borrows from the man Democrats are hungry to beat.\nTrump\u2019s fans often say they admired his candor and willingness to defy political conventions. Another model is Bernie Sanders\u2019 campaign against Clinton for the nomination, which was marked by the Vermont senator\u2019s unwillingness to play the part of a slick, poll-driven candidate as he railed against income inequality. Clinton was often described as too careful, rehearsed and robotic.\nThe push also coincides as the #MeToo movement has demanded greater accountability, and social media allows a candidate such as O\u2019Rourke to draw thousands of Twitter views of his speeches from behind the wheel of his pickup truck.\nHis campaign announced a record $38.1 million raised during the past three months.\nDemocrats who may consider a White House run in 2020 are watching closely. They\u2019ve become more accessible in the months before the formal start of that campaign.\nMassachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren has released a decade worth of tax returns, held frequent town hall meetings and started engaging with journalists for Senate hallway interviews after shunning them in the past.\nIn one notable move, Warren cooperated with an exhaustive Boston Globe investigation during the summer. The paper found that the senator\u2019s career as a law professor was not helped by her assertions that she has a Native American heritage.\nOther senators who are potential 2020 contenders, including Kamala Harris of California, Cory Booker of New Jersey and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, displayed a visceral reaction to the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh and tried to delay the proceedings during the then-judge\u2019s first appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Harris later staged a walk out before a key vote as senators considered allegations of sexual assault made against Kavanaugh.\n\u201cWe are at a point in this country where there is greater distrust of politics and political institutions than at any point in modern history,\u201d said Jesse Ferguson, a Democratic strategist and veteran of presidential and congressional campaigns. \u201cIf you can\u2019t show what you\u2019re doing and why you\u2019re doing it, nobody will believe you will actually do it.\u201d\nIn less contentious settings, potential candidates such as Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper are pointing to their unusual backgrounds to vouch for their everyman appeal. Hickenlooper notes that he was laid off from his job as a geologist during the 1980s, a period that led him to open a Denver brew pub. He later became the city\u2019s mayor.\n\u201cI was out of work for almost two years and you see a different person in the mirror,\u201d Hickenlooper said at a recent Brookings Institution event alongside Gov. John Kasich, R-Ohio, as he pointed to the need for skills development.\nThe emphasis on authenticity has been a hallmark of a number of Democratic candidates this year who are pledging to challenge status-quo politics.\nKentucky congressional candidate Amy McGrath, for example, has drawn nearly 1.9 million views on YouTube for an ad that describes her path to becoming a combat pilot in the Marines and her pledge to protect health care.\nThe South Dakota\u2019s race for governor features Billie Sutton, a state senator and former rodeo star who was paralyzed from the waist down more than a decade ago after he was thrown from his horse at a North Dakota rodeo. Sutton, an underdog against Rep. Kristi Noem, a Republican backed by Trump, says the injuries were a turning point in his decision to enter public service.",

When this happens, the brain sends a message to the body telling it to cool you off with your body\u2019s natural coolant\u2014sweat. It\u2019s your body\u2019s way of maintaining your core temperature.\nI Sweat A Lot. Is That Normal?\nIn some people, the sweat glands overreact to stimuli and produce more sweat than your body needs.\nAntiperspirants act by plugging the sweat duct, thus reducing wetness. Because perspiration stimulates odour-causing bacteria, antiperspirant also helps reduce body odour.\nWhat Causes Underarm Odour?\nPerspiration itself is essentially odourless and evaporates readily. However, in areas like underarms, where perspiration can\u2019t readily evaporate, it causes the feeling of wetness. Bacteria, which thrive in warm and moist surroundings, break down the perspiration and create underarm odour.\nUnlike antiperspirants, deodorants don\u2019t reduce wetness; they help reduce the bacteria that thrive in perspiration and cause the odour. By doing this, deodorants cover up underarm odour. Additionally, most deodorants are scented to fight odour.\nWhat\u2019s The Difference Between Antiperspirants And Deodorant?\nDeodorants help control odour primarily by masking the underarm odour caused by the bacteria interacting with perspiration and also by reducing odour-causing bacteria. It\u2019s actually these bacteria, not the wetness, which causes the odour. Antiperspirants help control wetness, and thereby odour, by slowing the flow of perspiration to the surface of the skin.",

Its vernacular names include burningbush, ragweed,\nBassia scoparia (synonym Kochia scoparia) is an annual shrub native to Eurasia. It has introduced populations in many parts of North America, where it is found in grassland, prairie, and desert shrub ecosystems. Its vernacular names include burningbush, ragweed, summer cypress, fireball, belvedere and Mexican firebrush, Mexican fireweed. It may be planted in almost any climate zone in early spring.\nMexican Firebrush (B. S. trichophylla) is a cultivar of B. scoparia that turns bright red in the fall. They easily self-seed and can become a weed if not controlled.\nThe seed of Bassia scoparia is dispersed by wind, water, and especially by the whole plant detaching and tumbling in the wind (see Tumbleweed). The seed does not persist in the soil seed bank, but either germinates or dies within about a year.\nBassia scoparia is a C4 plant, specifically of the NADP-ME type.\nUses of Bassia scoparia include human food and traditional medicine, forage for livestock, and erosion control.\nThe seeds of Bassia scoparia are eaten as a food garnish called tonburi (\u3068\u3093\u3076\u308a?) (Japanese). Its texture is similar to caviar, and it also is called \"land caviar\", \"field caviar\" and \"mountain caviar\". In Japan, tonburi is a delicacy (chinmi) of Akita prefecture. After harvesting the seeds are dried. To prepare them, the seeds are boiled and soaked in cold water for about a day, then rubbed by hand to remove the outer skin. The seeds are 1\u20132 mm in diameter, glossy with a black-green color.\nTonburi also is used in traditional Chinese medicine. It may prevent metabolic disorders such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, obesity and atherosclerosis. In a study of mice fed a high-fat diet, an extract of tonburi did limit obesity. Bassia scoparia seeds contain momordin Ic, a triterpene saponin.\nThe plant is a moderately useful forage for livestock, and a potential forage crop for dry lands.However, its use is limited by toxicity when fed in large quantities. Livestock grazing principally on lush stands of Bassia scoparia sometimes experience weight loss, hyperbilirubinemia, photosensitization, and polyuria. When used as the only feed for weeks, Bassia scoparia hay may cause toxicity in cattle.\nBassia scoparia is planted for ornament or erosion control. It is a known hyperaccumulator of Chromium, Lead, Mercury, Selenium, Silver, Zinc, and Uranium , and as such can be used for phytoremediation.\nThe species was first published in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus, who named it Chenopodium scoparium. In 1809, it was included into the genus Kochia by Heinrich Schrader, and in 1978, into genus Bassia by A.J.Scott. Recent phylogenetic research confirmed, that Kochia has to be included in Bassia.

        "raw_content": "How FCC\u2019s Ruling Affects Your Call-Centric Business\nTAGGED IN: Business Solutions, Call-Centric Operations\nDid you know that text messages are now considered phone calls, at least according to the FCC\u2019s ruling on the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)? Earlier this year, the FCC issued a ruling clarifying several points of contention surrounding automated calls. The new rules expand the definition of \u201ccalls\u201d to include text messages and restrict the use of autodialers. They also provide greater protections for consumers and allow telecommunications provider to use robocall blocking technologies. In all, 21 petitions were addressed by the FCC, making this ruling one of the biggest changes to the TCPA since the creation of the do-not-call list.\nA Brief History of the TCPA\nThe TCPA dates back to 1991 when it was first passed to amend the Communications Act of 1934. The TCPA restricts telemarketing along with the use of autodialers, prerecorded voice or artificial messages, and fax machines. The Do Not Call Registry Act of 2003 and the FTC\u2019s Telemarketing Sales Rule are closely related.\nIn 2013, the FCC updated the TCPA to restrict SMS text messages, require an automatic opt-out mechanism for robocalls, require prior written consent for wireless calls, and eliminate the \u201cestablished business relationship\u201d exemption among other changes.\nAccording to the FCC\u2019s press release on the new ruling, \u201ccomplaints related to unwanted calls are the largest category of complaints received by the Commission, numbering more than 215,000 in 2014.\nThe FCC\u2019s Recent Updates to the TCPA\nThe new updates attempt to address these complaints, and they\u2019ll likely prove challenging to call-centric businesses. Among the nearly two dozen changes include updates that:\nAllow telecommunications service providers to use robocall blocking technologies to help stop unwanted robocalls\nAllow consumers to revoke their consent at any time, in any reasonable manner\nClarify that text messages are considered calls and subject to the same rules\nPrevent a consumer from \u201cinheriting\u201d a previous subscriber\u2019s consent to receive calls\nClarify what an automatic telephone dialing system is and that human intervention (like clicking a button) is not sufficient to overcome this a system\u2019s status as an autodialer\nClarify that Internet-to-phone text messaging technologies are considered automatic telephone dialing systems\nAddress reassigned numbers, requiring companies to stop calling a reassigned after one call\nAddress third party consent, clarifying that people in another person\u2019s contact list have not given consent to receive robocalls from applications downloaded by that person\nHow the FCC\u2019s New Ruling Affects Your Call-Centric Business\nIf your business uses automated dialing systems to call or text consumers, you must comply with the TCPA and this new ruling or face hefty penalties. At a minimum, you will need to be prepared to:\nPromptly remove consumers who\u2019ve revoked their consent from your list.\nTreat text messages as if they were phone calls and ensure that your texting practices comply with the TCPA.\nAvoid soliciting your customer\u2019s acquaintances using autodialers. You can still ask for referrals and make personal phone calls, but don\u2019t use an autodialer and definitely do not continue calling if the referral asks you to stop.\nIdentify recently reassigned numbers and remove them from your list promptly. If your customer has moved and changed his or her phone number, using phone validation software can help prevent calls to the new subscriber.\nThese recent changes are widely considered good for consumers but challenging for businesses who use autodialers. Learn more about the new FCC ruling at the FCC\u2019s website.",

        "raw_content": "New national data finds that nearly half of all children in the United States are affected by traumatic experiences\n(New York, NY) October 6, 2017\u2014Sesame Workshop, the non-profit educational organization behind Sesame Street, announced today its first-ever comprehensive initiative designed to help children cope with traumatic experiences. The initiative is a major new addition to Sesame Street in Communities, a program to help community service providers, parents, and caregivers give children, especially the most vulnerable, a strong and healthy start.\nFunded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) with additional support from other philanthropic partners, the new traumatic experiences initiative is focused on mitigating the harmful effects of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and unexpected stressful occurrences, like natural disasters or witnessing violent acts, so they don\u2019t define a child\u2019s life trajectory. ACEs can include abuse and neglect, witnessing domestic violence, a parent\u2019s substance abuse or mental illness, divorce, or parental incarceration. Analysis of the 2016 National Survey of Children\u2019s Health, released today, reveals that nearly half of American children under age 18 have had at least one out of nine types of ACEs. The analysis further reveals that more than 20 percent of American children have had at least two ACEs\u2014children who have had multiple ACEs are at a significantly higher risk for issues affecting their development, learning and health, with cumulative impacts as they age into youth and adulthood.\nTraumatic experiences and resulting toxic stress can disrupt a child\u2019s brain development and increase the risk of both short-term and long-term physical, social, and emotional issues. However, children are remarkably resilient, and the effects of traumatic experiences can be lessened if they receive comfort and support. Grounded in the latest research and created in consultation with childhood development experts, the initiative features proven strategies used by social workers, therapists, health care providers, and educators, which\u2014combined with the consistent presence of caring adults\u2014are proven to mitigate the impact of traumatic experiences on young children.\nThe initiative features new, bilingual content including videos, storybooks, and digital activities, all featuring the iconic Sesame Street Muppets, loved by children and trusted by parents and providers. These resources present universal coping strategies that help children feel safe and become more resilient in a range of situations, and give caring adults the tools they need to foster nurturing connections.\nNew content featuring Sesame Street Muppets modeling coping strategies includes:\n\u201cComfy Cozy Nest\u201d: Big Bird learns that his nest is a \u2018safe space\u2019 where he can go to make himself feel better.\n\u201cCount, Breathe, Relax\u201d: The Count teaches Cookie Monster a breathing strategy.\n\u201cGive Yourself a Hug\u201d: Big Bird, Cookie Monster, the Count, and Abby Cadabby learn how self-hugs can calm us down.\n\u201cI Can Feel Safe\u201d: Elmo builds a blanket fort to feel secure.\n\u201cI Can Do It\u201d: Sophia helps Abby Cadabby build self-confidence.\nIn addition to content for children, the initiative includes professional development resources and adult-facing content, including a first-of-its-kind animation for provider training and for providers to use with parents and caregivers to help them understand the impact of domestic violence from a child\u2019s perspective; simple strategies for parents and community providers that can be used easily and repeatedly; and professional development workshops and webinars for providers.\n\u201cChildren need to know\u2014especially during hard times\u2014that they\u2019re not alone. Sesame Street has always been a source of comfort to children dealing with very difficult circumstances, and given how few resources there are for young children dealing with traumatic experiences, we knew we could help,\u201d said Sherrie Westin, Executive Vice President for Global Impact and Philanthropy at Sesame Workshop. \u201cConsidering the staggering number of children affected by traumatic experiences, including those impacted by recent natural disasters and the tragedy in Las Vegas, these comprehensive resources are more important than ever.\u201d\n\u201cWe know how damaging childhood trauma can be to a child\u2019s health and wellbeing. Sesame Street in Communities can be life-changing. It provides tools to help children cope with life\u2019s most difficult challenges, including trauma,\u201d said Richard Besser, M.D., president and CEO of RWJF. \u201cWe encourage parents and providers in every community to check out the website and make use of these terrific materials.\u201d\nAdditional Sesame Street in Communities resources for children from birth to five years old\u2014all freely available at www.sesamestreetincommunities.org in English and Spanish\u2014include videos, storybooks, games, and professional development on topics like early learning basics such as building reading, writing, and counting skills; health and well-being, including healthy eating, oral health routines, and being active; and helping children and families cope with difficult topics like divorce and grief.\n\u201cSesame is in a class of its own in terms of the trust and credibility it has with families,\u201d said Janine Hron, President, Crittenton Children\u2019s Center in Kansas City, MO. \u201cAt Crittenton, we know firsthand how difficult traumatic experiences can be for kids. Sesame Street\u2019s new initiative is a tremendous resource for the families in our community. In addition to helping them become more resilient during particularly challenging moments, the strategies also help with everyday situations that can help kids thrive and grow.\u201d\nSesame Workshop is currently implementing Sesame Street in Communities in three pilot communities\u2014Kansas City, MO; Los Angeles, CA; and Guilford County, NC\u2014by partnering with community providers and giving them the tools they need to support the families they serve. Sesame Street in Communities is also partnering with PBS stations nationwide, who have long been ambassadors of Sesame Street in the communities they serve through local events and sharing resources with families. Over the next five years, Sesame Street in Communities aims to reach 4.5 million children under age 6 and their families; connect with more than 11,000 direct service providers; develop 200 national and local partnerships; and expand to at least 35 additional communities across the country.\nFor more than 40 years the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has worked to improve health and health care. We are working with others to build a national Culture of Health enabling everyone in America to live longer, healthier lives. For more information, visit www.rwjf.org.

Our first production outside the U.S., Germany\u2019s SesamStraase, was the template for adapting our approach to different needs and cultures around the world. The program is loved by generations of families, many of whom think of the show as an original German creation. In areas of the continent marked by cultural conflict, our programs bring lessons in mutual understanding to help sow the seeds of peace.\nNetherlands \u2014 Sesamstraat\nThe Dutch version of Sesame Street is one of the longest-running kids\u2019 shows in the Netherlands, reaching 6.7 million children daily. The program has taught generations of preschoolers about letters and numbers while helping them form important social and emotional skills. Segments address issues of local and global importance like cultural stereotyping, bullying, peaceful problem solving, and expressing emotion in healthy ways.\nGermany \u2014 SesamStrasse\nMillions of children have grown up with SesamStrasse, which first aired in Germany in 1973. Created for 3- to 5-year-olds, the show encourages creative play, asking questions, and using active imaginations. The characters tackle issues like sharing and taking turns, protecting the environment, and mutual respect and understanding\u2014especially relevant for the diverse population of modern Germany.\nNorthern Ireland, Kosovo \u2014 Mutual Understanding\nIn areas marked by conflict, Sesame Street helps promote respect and understanding among children of all backgrounds. Past examples include our Sesame Tree co-production in Northern Ireland, where two Muppet role models\u2014Hilda the Irish Hare and Potto, a furry purple monster\u2014overcame their cultural differences to become friends and live together peacefully in their tree. Likewise, our programs in Kosovo became a powerful tool for healing rifts between the Kosovo-Albanian and Kosovo-Serb peoples as they moved toward reconciliation.\nShow: Sesamstraat\nShow: Sesamstrasse\nPress Release: Sesame Workshop Names New Licensing Agents for Sesame Street in UK, Eire, and the Benelux\nPress Release: Joan Ganz Cooney to receive IBC2018 International Honour for Excellence",

A woman and a pair of children are blindfolded and make their way through a dystopian setting.\nSandra Bullock Malorie\nSarah Paulson \\N\nRosa Salazar \\N\nJohn Malkovich \\N\nSome Early Reviews Are Legit 12/16/2018 12:00:00 AM by saroth78 6\nJust wanted to say, there is a thing called on demand and pay per view, and often times movies, especially ones that aren't big budget blockbusters, are released earlier abroad (overseas) either in theaters on or On Demand PPV. I can confirm this because I have seen movies this way, before they were released in the US. I suppose if ones world view were limited to the US being the center of the world, they might not comprehend this.\nAs for this movie, it's alright, good enough for a time killer, but won't be saved in my personal library. To me it seems like it's trying the ride on the coat tails of A Quiet Places's success. Instead of not being able to make a sound, you can't look at a certain thing. It's 6.5 star rating as of now, seems fair and accurate.\nDisappointment all around.. 12/16/2018 12:00:00 AM by BatmanFunReviews2018 4\nA woman and a pair of children are blindfolded and make their way through a dystopian setting. Despite a few good moments and a powerful perfomance by Sandra Bullock? 'Bird Box' fails to deliver any significant thing that you didn't saw in 'A Quiet Place' just earlier this year but then again? It's no 'The Happening' either but i must say both BD Wong and Sarah Paulson were extremely wasted here. Trevante Rhodes took some of the dumbest choices in the entire movie and John Malkovich acted like he was starring in a completely different movie. (4/10)\nPretty alright 12/16/2018 12:00:00 AM by alibaba3317 7\nCaught this today. A sci/fi horror film about invisible \"creatures\" possessing its victims when they look at them. An interesting premise, very much in line with \"A Quiet Place\" but with a twist. Does it stick the landing? For the most part.\nThe film never really loses its pace, it moves along at a decent speed. It's not particulary scary for a horror movie but it does have some strong imagery and violence. The horror elements are character oriented and Sandra Bullocks main character has a solid arc. Unfortunately it doesn't really hit you that hard by the end. But structurally, it's fine.\nThe film isn't really that surprising story wise, but it doesn't really matter too much. The cast is solid and the plot is fine for the most part, but kind of misses a lot of explaining about what is actually happening. I was left with several questions regarding the creatures by the end, same goes for a few turns in the story. But this is ultimately a story about being a mother and fighting against your fear of loosing others.\n6,7/10. Would recommend seeing it but don't expect anything mind blowing. My main complaint is with the script. Also, on a funny note, there's a few funny scenes that probably weren't intentional, so if you don't like the movie, at least you can laugh a little.\nan interesting but slightly underwhelming thriller 11/17/2018 12:00:00 AM by kingsgrl2010 6\nA post-apocalyptic thriller in the vein of A Quiet Place. There are plenty of differences that makes this movie worth watching but has a hard time giving the viewer a surprising or new experience. As I was watching I was able to predict some things that happened, and a twist that should have been shocking ends up being the weakest part of the movie. The movie is at its best when the tension from the mysterious creatures is heightened in small places. When there are too many characters on screen you don't feel the urgency or connect with the characters that may not make it. Sandra Bullock gives another great performance and I can't wait to see Trevante Rhodes in more movies, he really left an impact on the story. Overall a nice watch on Netflix when it comes out, with some great tension, and a nice arc of Sandra Bullock's character.\njust as an FYI - I did see this at the World Premiere at AFI Fest with the whole cast and director in person. so I did see it in a theatre and I am so glad I did! Definitely worth watching on Netflix too.\nThe Happening 2 12/16/2018 12:00:00 AM by COMalcolmII 2\nI was hoping this movie was different from The Happening. I was hoping for that big twist to make this movie spectacular, to set it apart but it never came.

        "title": "King David Bible",
        "raw_content": "He established Jerusalem as Israel\u2019s capital, choosing a place that Jacob called the gate of heaven.\nKing David is one of the most important figures in Jewish history. Born in 907 BCE, he reigns as king of Israel for 40 years, dying at age 70 in 837 BCE.\nThere is so much that can be said about him. Some people like to focus on the warrior aspect\u2014the chivalrous warrior fighting for God\u2014but when his persona and accomplishments are considered as a whole, it is his spiritual greatness that shines most of all.\nDavid\u2019s first and foremost drive is to have a relationship with God. We get the glimpse of the beauty of his soul when we read the Psalms, most of which he wrote. Who doesn\u2019t know:\nThe Lord is my shepherd I shall not want ... (Psalm 23)\nThe Lord is my light and my salvation, whom should I fear ... (Psalm 27)\nI lift my eyes to the mountains\u2014from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth ... (Psalm 121)\nEven when we consider his military conquest, we see that the driving force behind them was his attachment to God. The hereditary bloodline of King David will become the only legitimate royal bloodline in Jewish history. From David will come all the future kings of Judah and ultimately, at the end of history, the Messiah. This idea of a God-ordained monarchy will be copied by many other nations throughout history and will serve as the basis for the concept of \u201cthe divine right of kings\u201d in Medieval and Renaissance Europe.(1)\nWe know historically that the story of Israel during this entire period of time\u2014from the Exodus onward\u2014is the story of a tiny nation sandwiched between the two great ancient civilizations, Egypt and Mesopotamia (which was ruled at various times by the Assyrians, Babylonians or Persians).\nWhen David takes the throne, Egypt and Assyria are both on a significant decline. They\u2019re not in any position to expand, which leaves a vacuum in the middle where Israel is located, and Israel is allowed to expand unmolested by these other great empires.\nThus David is able to subdue, at long last, the Philistine threat and to conquer the remaining Canaanite city-state\u2014Jerusalem\u2014that the Israelites have thus far not been able to conquer.\n(For the 440 years since the Jewish people first entered the Land of Israel until the time of King David, Jerusalem has remained an unconquered non-Jewish city in the heart of a Jewish country. It is a city-state inhabited by Canaanite tribe called Jebusites (the Arab village of Silwan, just south of the walls of the Old City, is located there now). It is heavily fortified, yet despite its seemingly impregnable appearance, Jerusalem has one weakness\u2014its only source of water is a spring outside the city walls. The spring is accessed from inside the city by a long shaft carved into rock.\nThe Book of Samuel and the Book of Chronicles describe how David\u2019s general, Yoab, climbs up a tzinor (literally \u201cpipe\u201d) enters the city and conquers it. Some archaeologists speculate that this might refer to the city\u2019s ancient water system\u2014whose source was the Gihon Spring\u2014which is a tourist attraction in \u201cDavid\u2019s City,\u201d outside the walls of today\u2019s Jerusalem.\nWHY JERUSALEM?\nThe first thing that David does after he occupies the city is make it his capital. And here we have to pause and ask: Why Jerusalem?\nCertainly there were more suitable sites for the capital of Israel. Jerusalem does not adjoin any important body of water nor is it located on any trade route. All the capital cities in the world are built near oceans, seas, rivers, lakes, or at least near a major trade route.\n(There are major trade routes crisscrossing Israel at this time. There is the Kings Highway, which is one of the major trade routes in the ancient Middle East, running from the Gulf of Aqaba on the Red Sea to Damascus. And there is also the Via Maris, \u201cWay of the Sea,\u201d which runs from Egypt along the Mediterranean coast then through Israel and on to Syria.)\nLogically, the capital of Israel should have been on the Mediterranean Sea. Ideally a place like Jaffa (next to today\u2019s Tel Aviv) would have made the most sense.\nSo why Jerusalem?\nThe reason why Jerusalem has to do with a very unique aspect of the Jewish people, and why the children of Israel became a nation in the first place.\nNormally, nations become nations by living in a piece of real estate for a long period of time, developing a common language and a common culture. Take the French for example. They didn\u2019t all wake up one day and decide they liked wine, cheese and croissants. A group of people over a period of time moved into a common piece of real estate (which later became known as France), and shared a common language. After a shared period of national experience, they coalesced into an identity known as the French. More or less, this scenario works for every nation.\nThe Jews became a nation shortly after escaping slavery in Egypt. They were not yet in the land of Israel, they were camping out in no man\u2019s land, in the desert, at the foot of Mount Sinai. The Jews became a nation there, when they made a covenant with God, promising \u201cwe will do and we will hear.\u201d The nationhood of Israel is defined, first and foremost, by its communal relationship with God and by the Jewish people\u2019s historic mission.\nAnd it turns out that there is no better place to relate to God than Jerusalem.\nAfter David makes Jerusalem his capital, he buys the upper part of the hill above the northern boundary of the city from its owner Aravnah, the Jebusite. The purchase is recorded in the Bible in two places (2 Samuel 24:24 and 1 Chronicles 21:25).\nThis hill is Mount Moriah and what it may lack in physical size, it more than compensates for spiritual greatness.(2)\nFrom the earliest period of Jewish history, the Patriarchs of the Jewish people recognized the tremendous spiritual power of Mount Moriah. This is where Abraham, sensing God\u2019s presence, went up to offer Isaac as a sacrifice and later remarked as the Bible records:\n\u201cThe Lord will see,\u201d as it is said to this day, \u201cOn the Lord\u2019s mountain, He will be seen.\u201d (Genesis 22:14)\nThis is where Jacob dreamt of a ladder going to heaven, and said:\n\u201cHow awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.\u201d (Genesis 28:17)\nNo wonder this is a spot that every major conqueror in all of human history has wanted to own. (Jerusalem has been conquered or destroyed 36 times in 3,000 years.)\nToday on this spot stands an Islamic structure known as the Dome of the Rock. Under this golden dome is an exposed piece of the bedrock of Mount Moriah-metaphysically known as the even ishtiah, literally, \u201cdrinking stone.\u201d Water and spirituality are synonymous, and the Torah is known as mayim chayim, \u201cwater of life.\u201d According to Judaism, the world is spiritually nourished from this spot, this stone-which is the metaphysical center of the universe.\nThis is the place where God\u2019s presence can be felt more intensively than in any other place on the planet earth. Therefore, this is the logical place to build a permanent resting spot for the most holy object that the Jewish people have\u2014the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant.\nTHE SITE OF THE TEMPLE\nKing David wastes no time bringing the Ark to Jerusalem. And it is an occasion of great communal happiness. In ecstasy David dances wildly at this celebration. For this he is condemned by his wife Michal, the daughter of Saul, who had stuck with him through thick and thin and who even saved his life when King Saul wanted to kill him. But now Michal attacks David, ridiculing his behavior (2 Samuel 6:16-23):\n\u201cHow glorious was the king of Israel today, who was exposed today in the eyes of the maidservants of his servants, as one of the boors would be exposed!\u201d\nDavid\u2014who had thought nothing of his own honor in his gladness that he had made a special connection with God,\u2014responds in astonishment:\n\u201cBefore the Lord I will make merry. And I shall behave even more humbly than this, and I shall be lowly in my eyes; and of the maidservants of whom you have spoken, by them shall I will be held in honor.\u201d\nThe story concludes with the punishment visited on Michal for her harsh condemnation of the man chosen by God to be Israel\u2019s king:\nAlthough David brings up the Ark of the Covenant to Mount Moriah, he is not allowed by God to build the Temple. A number of reasons are given. One is that the Temple is a house of God and a house of peace and David has a lot of blood on his hands from subduing the enemies of Israel. However, he is promised that his son will build it.\nNow David has a number of sons by several wives, some of whom give him serious trouble. One, Amnon, rapes his sister, Tamar. Another, Absalom plots against David and tries to have him deposed. But there is one special boy, Solomon, born from David\u2019s relationship with the beautiful Bathsheba.\nThe story of David\u2019s relationship with Bathsheba (II Samuel Chap. 11) is one of the most misread stories in the Bible, and we have to be careful in reading it as if it were some kind of soap opera. In summary, however, this is what happens.\nRestless one night, David is pacing the roof of his palace from where he has a view of the homes and gardens in the city below(3). And there he spies a beautiful woman bathing. She is the wife of one of his generals, Uriah, the Hittite, who is away at war.\nDavid sends for Bathsheba and spends the night with her. When she becomes pregnant, he commands that Uriah be placed on the front lines, where he dies in battle. David then marries Bathsheba.\nAt this point, the prophet Nathan is sent by God to reprove David. (See 2 Samuel 12.) He says that he has come to inform the king of a great injustice in the land. A rich man with many sheep, stole the one beloved sheep of a poor man, and had it slaughtered for a feast.\nFurious at what he hears, King David, declares, \u201cAs God lives, the one who has done this deserves death.\u201d\nResponds the prophet, \u201cYou are that man!\u201d\nDavid is humbled. \u201cI have sinned before God,\u201d he says.\nThis is an enormously complex story and there is much more here than meets the eye. Technically, Bathsheba was not a married woman since David\u2019s troops always gave their wives conditional divorces, lest a soldier be missing in action leaving his wife unable to remarry.(4) However, the Bible states clearly that David acted improperly, and the Sages explain that while David did not commit adultery in the literal sense, he violated the spirit of the law(5).\nAs noted in earlier installments, the Bible takes a hyper-critical position of Jewish leaders. It never whitewashes anyone\u2019s past, and in that it stands alone among the records of ancient peoples which usually describe kings as descendants of gods without faults.\nDavid\u2019s greatness shines in both his ability to take responsibility for his actions and the humility of his admission and the repentance that follows. This is part of the reason that the ultimate redeemer of the Jewish people and the world will descend from David\u2019s line\u2014he will be \u201cMessiah son of David.\u201d\nShortly thereafter, Bathsheba gives birth, but the child becomes deathly ill as the prophet Nathan had predicted. David goes into a period of prayer and fasting, but the child dies nevertheless. David realizes that the death of the baby and later the revolt of his beloved son, Absalom (II Samuel 15-19), were divine punishment and also served as atonement for his actions. David \u201cpays his dues,\u201d repents for many years and is ultimately forgiven by God.\nBefore long Bathsheba is pregnant again. And this time, she bears a healthy child\u2014who is named Solomon, and who will be the golden child, gifted with unusual wisdom.\n1) Many peoples around the world have taken this idea one step further and actually claim that their royal family and even they, themselves, are actual descendants of the ancient Hebrews. One fascinating example are the Makuya sect in Japan who claim that there is an ancient connection between the Japanese and the Jews and that the Royal family of Japan is actually descended from King David.\nAnother example is the British. For seven hundred years, every king and queen of England was crowned king while sitting on a throne mounted on a large block of limestone. The stone is called the \u201cStone of Scone King Edward I (1239-1307) stole the stone from the Scots (It was returned to Scotland in 1997). Scottish tradition held that the stone was the \u201cpillow\u201d that Jacob rested his head on when he had his dream. It was used as a coronation stone by the early Hebrew kings and was kept in Solomon\u2019s Temple in Jerusalem After the destruction of the First Temple in 422 BCE, the stone eventually found its way first to Ireland and later to Scotland, . As outrageous as this idea may sound it shows us the centrality and importance of the Davidic line in history.\n2)It is often mentioned that the Western Wall is the holiest spot in the world for the Jews. This is simply not true. The Western Wall is merely a retaining wall built around Mt Moriah by Herod the Great more than 2,000 years ago. The holiest spot is Mt Moriah itself. Today this holiest of places is hidden behind the Western Wall and under the Moslem shrine called the Dome of the Rock. 3) For more details see Talmud, Sanhedrin 107a\n4)Talmud, Shabbat 56b\n5) See Talmud, Sanhedrin 107b. As a prophet, David saw that Bathsheba was destined for him. (Solomon\u2019s birth and kingship are proof of this point). The issue was not that Bathsheba was meant to be his wife, but rather how he acquired her.\nPart 17: David: The Shepherd, The Warrior Next >>\nPart 19: King Solomon",

        "raw_content": "Review: Public Enemy, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back\nOne time someone asked me who my favorite rap artist was. Mentally flipping through a list that included Missy Elliott and Kanye West, and not wanting to seem either too stupid or too gay, I blurted out, \u201cPublic Enemy.\u201d After popping in a Lil Wayne remix, this person arched his eyebrows and looked down. \u201cPublic Enemy? They\u2019re trouble.\u201d Well, yeah, that\u2019s the whole idea. Still recording after 20 years, the group\u2019s call-it-like-it-is ethos remains intact, even though Chuck D has resorted to collaborating with Moby and using bad puns like \u201cHead Wide Shut\u201d to get his message across. As the group has grown up, so has hip-hop: While Public Enemy may have cleared the way for everyone from Eminem to M.I.A., the mix of outrage and anarchic humor that once defined their brand of political hip-hop no longer has a place in a genre that has thoroughly saturated pop culture not just stateside, but in about every other industrialized country too.\nThe death knell of hip-hop\u2019s relevance came earlier this year when the Black Eyed Peas\u2019 will.i.am released the video for his song \u201cYes We Can,\u201d a humorless PSA-in-disguise for Barack Obama starring a bunch of famous people like John Legend, Common, and Scarlett Johansson. It wasn\u2019t exactly a rap song (it wasn\u2019t really a song at all), but it represents what rap has become. Polemics like \u201cFuck tha Police\u201d and \u201cFight the Power\u201d have given way to embarrassingly earnest and stilted political music with no room for antics: Eminem leading us \u201cthrough the darkness\u201d in \u201cMosh\u201d; Ludacris and West shilling for Al Gore at Live Earth. These efforts take their cue from Public Enemy, but they\u2019re self-consciously aware of their new position in the pop marketplace. Instead of battling their way from the bottom up, they are thoroughly perched at the top with all the other superstars, looking down.\nSo it\u2019s hard not to approach the 20th anniversary of Public Enemy\u2019s sophomore album and magnum opus, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, with a little bit of bitterness and a lot of nostalgia. It was the first time a hip-hop album had topped The Village Voice\u2018s Pazz & Jop poll, at a time when a major rap artist could say \u201cDon\u2019t believe the hype\u201d without any hint of irony. Which isn\u2019t to say the genre isn\u2019t going places: After releasing her own sophomore album, Kala, the industry already wants to anoint M.I.A. the new queen of music that gives a shit. But Public Enemy and M.I.A. are very different artists who come from very different places. An artist who uses beats like weapons, M.I.A. has militant-chic appeal, but for all her record sales she\u2019s not exactly trying to disrupt the mainstream; \u201cNobody wants to be dancing to political songs,\u201d she said in an interview before the release of her debut in 2004.\nIn hindsight, it\u2019s best to see Public Enemy as the first and maybe only successful hip-hop group whose music extended directly from their politics, and not the other way around. Born into activism and influenced by the now-outmoded ideas of Louis Farrakhan\u2019s Nation of Islam, Chuck D didn\u2019t just unsettle the middle class\u2014he lobbed a \u201cloud, obnoxious\u201d bomb at it, to steal a phrase from Rolling Stone\u2018s review of It Takes a Nation in its list of 500 Greatest Albums. Public Enemy stole from rock in more ways than sound: They adopted the bratty swagger of a punk band, filtered it through a DJ\u2019s turntable, and wrote about what it was like to be black. The success of It Takes a Nation was, in part, a product of its own insistence; on \u201cBring the Noise,\u201d the closest thing to a Chuck D manifesto, he defies the listener, black radio stations, and rock critics alike to pay attention: \u201cWhatcha gonna do?/Rap is not afraid of you.\u201d\nCalling Public Enemy \u201cunderground\u201d is a misnomer. Though they agitated authority, their universal beats spoke to anyone and everyone with simple honesty. It was easy, even natural, to see Do the Right Thing\u2018s frustrated Brooklyn nobodies bumping to \u201cFight the Power.\u201d Chuck D uses It Takes a Nation as a sounding board. The famously hectic, swerving beats, samples, and sirens form the backdrop to his urgent political protest: At the same time they seduce, distract, and confuse the picture, they also force you to listen to the words he\u2019s spinning. The classic Public Enemy song (\u201cBring the Noise,\u201d \u201cDon\u2019t Believe the Hype\u201d) starts with a sample that forms the basis for Chuck D\u2019s sinewy stream of consciousness. Eventually, Flavor Flav, playing comic relief, will cut in riffing on a situation or a question (\u201cYo, Chuck, they\u2019re saying we\u2019re too black, man\u201d), Chuck will answer, and so on. It feels like a busy conversation or a raucous party, but above the white noise, there\u2019s always Chuck D, making sense of things. If hip-hop is \u201cCNN for black people,\u201d as the rapper suggested, then he\u2019s its ultimate pundit.\nLike a much funnier version of Green Day\u2019s \u201cAmerican Idiot,\u201d It Takes a Nation purposefully plays on paranoia about government, cops, and the media. Chuck D talks in street codes (he likes to call people \u201csuckers\u201d), but his lyrics build surprisingly complex narratives out of simple observations. On \u201cBlack Steel in the Hour of Chaos,\u201d an annoying draft letter becomes a symbol of the U.S. government\u2019s handed-down tradition of slave-labor tactics: \u201cI wasn\u2019t wit\u2019 it, but just that very minute/It occurred to me/The suckers had authority.\u201d The static-like beats and jumbled words in \u201cShe Watch Channel Zero?!\u201d stand in for television\u2019s manufactured truth (the album\u2019s intro famously says \u201cthe revolution will not be televised\u201d), and \u201cNight of the Living Baseheads\u201d likens crack-cocaine use to an infectious beat. Above it all hangs Malcolm X\u2019s quote, \u201cToo black, too strong,\u201d which Public Enemy plays twice and embraces as its own mantra. If the group plays to stereotype by acting like an angry mob, they also reclaim their outrage and use it to subvert wrongheaded ideas about black life.\nIt Takes a Nation is universally taken to be the best rap album ever made. That\u2019s not opinion but empirical fact: Not only have Rolling Stone, NME, Vibe, and Q all said so, but it\u2019s also the only hip-hop album that ranks in the first 100 on Rolling Stone\u2018s Greatest Albums list. By comparison, the record peaked at a relatively low #42 on the Billboard album chart when it first came out. Because of the media sensation he created, we tend to think of Chuck D as a cultural authority, but in most obvious ways It Takes a Nation\u2014the \u201cgreatest\u201d hip-hop has ever produced\u2014doesn\u2019t fulfill the conventional expectations of its genre, which may go a long way toward explaining its unique popularity with rock critics.\nThe Bomb Squad\u2019s avant-garde production made music out of a wreck of sounds. It wasn\u2019t just the samples, from sources as varied as Queen and Stevie Wonder, but how they were used. Everyday noises like turntable scratches bumped up against live recordings of political speeches, a saxophone in \u201cShow Em Whatcha Got,\u201d and the rock crunch of the Beastie Boys-inspired \u201cParty for Your Right to Fight.\u201d Nothing if not democratic, Chuck D also didn\u2019t self-mythologize in the same way as Notorious B.I.G. or Jay-Z. The clattering nature of Public Enemy favored more voices, not less, in the end fulfilling the hinted promise of crossover rap during the late \u201880s: \u201cRun DMC first said a deejay could be a band/Stand on its feet, get you out your seat,\u201d Chuck D rhymes on \u201cBring the Noise.\u201d He used the casual language of black culture, but he also took his own advice to \u201creach the bourgeois/Rock the boulevard.\u201d\n\u201cI gotta speak the truth, man/Doing what we feel/For the music is the proof.\u201d That\u2019s a line from A Tribe Called Quest\u2019s 1991 masterpiece The Low End Theory, but it might as well have been lifted from It Takes a Nation. Later groups like Quest and De La Soul, arguably responsible for the two other greatest rap albums ever made, introduced the world to jazzy, soulful hip-hop, but in their laughably titled collective Native Tongues Posse (they all came from the outskirts of Manhattan), they shared with Public Enemy a commitment to experimental sounds and authentic, outspoken visions of urban life\u2014and from there it\u2019s not too hard to trace the lineage of artists like M.I.A. and Common. Less positively, it\u2019s hard to imagine a racist missive like Ice Cube\u2019s \u201cBlack Korea\u201d\u2014 which eerily foreshadowed the strife of the Rodney King riots\u2014without It Takes a Nation, an album that, for better or worse, gave rap its social trenchancy. In hip-hop\u2019s circle of life, it wasn\u2019t so much what Public Enemy was spitting, but the boldness with which they put it out there\u2014putting their voices on the airwaves and asking, \u201cCan I get a witness?\u201d\nLabel: Def Jam Release Date: April 1, 1988 Buy: Amazon\nReview: The Raconteurs, Consolers of the Lonely\nConsolers of the Critical\nLinks for the Day: The Movies\u2019 Greatest Pop Music Moments, It\u2019s Finally Time to Stop Caring About Lauryn Hill, Taxi Driver\u2018s Manhattan Transference, & More\nSummer of \u201989: Do the Right Thing\nLinks for the Day: SAG Nominations, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees, Ravi Shankar R.I.P., The Best and Worst Album Covers of 2012, & More",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Se7en\u2019 Screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker Boards David Fincher\u2019s \u201820,000 Leagues Under the Sea\u2019\nSome 16 years after they wowed critics and audiences alike with the serial killer pic Se7en, director David Fincher is set to reunite with screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker. But those hoping for another dark, twisted thriller probably shouldn\u2019t hold their breaths \u2014 the project they\u2019ll be collaborating on is Disney\u2019s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, which Fincher has been attached to since last year.\nInspired (but not too closely) by the classic Jules Verne tale, the 3D adventure centers around the determined Captain Nemo of the Nautilus, marine biologist Pierre Aronnax, and harpoonist Ned Land. Or at least it did in its last draft. More details after the jump.\nWalker is just the latest of several writers who\u2019ve worked on the script. Contagion scribe Scott Z. Burns was the last to take a crack at it, and Michael Chabon and Randall Wallace have both worked on it in the past as well. Fincher boarded the project after a previous incarnation with McG slated to direct fell apart. (Can you say upgrade?)\nIn addition to Se7en, Walker\u2019s previous credits also include The Wolfman, Sleepy Hollow, and 8MM. He\u2019s also known for his script doctoring work, with uncredited rewrites on Event Horizon, Fight Club, and more.\nSeeing as it\u2019s a four-quadrant Disney picture, there\u2019s obviously a limit to how disturbing 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea can get. Still, Fincher\u2019s never shied away from the darker side of things and neither has Walker. My guess (and my hope) is that we\u2019ll wind up with family film that\u2019s a little smarter and edgier than your usual kiddie fare. Lord knows they\u2019ve got plenty to work with with the mysterious, antiheroic Nemo.\nHowever, it remains to be seen when exactly 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea will take off. Fincher has yet to decide what he wants to after next month\u2019s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and has a few different possibilities on the table at the moment including Cleopatra and the Dragon Tatoo sequel The Girl Who Played With Fire.\nDisney\u2019s found great success with Verne\u2019s nautical adventure once before, in one of their earliest live-action movies. Released in 1954 with Kirk Douglas, James Mason, Paul Lukas, and Peter Lorre starring, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was the second highest grossing film of its year and picked up two Oscars for Best Art Direction and Best Effects. (It was also nominated for Best Film Editing, but lost to Elia Kazan\u2019s On the Waterfront.)\nAction/Adventure, Adaptation, Disney/Pixar, 20000 Leagues Under the Sea, Andrew-Scott-Walker, David-Fincher",

The gorgeous turquoise waters, pristine sands and sheltering overhanging cliffs make this a must-see. Come here via car and then walk down the beach. Spread your blanket out for a day of unforgettable beauty.\nAnother lovely beach well worth a visit is Kathisma beach. Located about half an hour away from the main town, Kathisma is not crowded and offers a long sweep of sand set against the blue sea. This is the place to come for a day along a secluded shore.\nCruise the Island\nThe waters around Lefkas make the ideal place for a boat ride. Many local companies offer rides of varying duration. Come out for an hour or two to get a view of the shore. Pick a longer day cruise and you\u2019ll see the entire island in a single day. Most cruises will bring you to some of the more secluded parts of Lekfas that are only accessible by boat. Many cruises also offer narration in English so you can learn about the importance of this island in Greek history. Papanikolis Cave is part of any toru. The cave is a named after a Greek submarine that hid out here during WWII.

        "raw_content": "Culvert Sunsets\nBy Jason Quinsey\nNot everyone feels every earthquake. Some are felt by just one family, around a hospital bed, or through days of subtle but devastating change, in one boy's struggle to draw a roadmap for his own life. Not every river is mighty, some flow quiet and dark, rushing beneath the concrete towers in which some of us live. Tom has wept and Tom will write, to find his way, and emerge in culvert sunsets. More\nCulvert Sunsets begins with the predicament of a recently retired postman, Jack Deakin, and intimates at the wilderness of retirement for those for whom the routine of work has provided structure and purpose. However, the story is told from the perspective of his son, Tom, who graduated two years earlier, having taken four years to complete a degree after experiencing a crisis during his first year. Both men now find themselves in a hiatus, one of those dilated and difficult periods everyone faces at one time or another, a time of re-evaluations, adjustments and introspection. Tom is using the process of writing to try to gain some understanding of the shifting landscape of his life: his brother\u2019s marital break-up, his father\u2019s near-fatal heart attack and his own sense of attachment to the past. This novel is a reflection on the nature of narratives with their clingings and re-writings and the mercilessness of the past tense. Tom hopes that by representing these experiences, by externalising them, some pattern or answer may emerge through which he can make sense of the present.\nCulvert Sunsets in part explores the relationship between philosophical ideas and the lives and struggles of an ordinary working family. Set in London in 1990 it is permeated with the atmosphere of that era whilst always foregrounding its cast of engaging and sympathetic characters. Philosophy is not contained within an academic discipline: the negotiaton with the world and with oneself through ideas and attitudes is the very stuff of life, and narrative.\nAs each chapter unfolds Tom writes about his memories of childhood and early adult life, which piece together some of the history of the family and the events which have lead them to this point. The story oscillates between these past scenes and the present until it catches up with itself and in the final section we are in the present of the writing itself. This ordinary family are portrayed in all their complexity, as well as with dark humour, as they struggle to navigate through trauma and change. There is also a development in the Tom as he moves from the self-sufficient solipsism of the early chapters towards a growing appreciation of the significance of others and the redeeming importance of friendship and parenthood.\nThe novel\u2019s themes of responsibility and self-acceptance are undercurrents or backdrops to these characters and their lives. I have tried to use language which has energy and is perhaps even at times poetic. I very much hope you will read my book as I believe, with its twist at the end, it will repay the effort.\nAll of the characters in this novel are fictional, as are the events \u2013 apart from one.\nTags: writing love memories relationships family philosophy memory london parents poetic literary fiction young twist metafiction dark humour",

        "raw_content": "PR war over fires in Tasmania's world heritage area takes to the air\nNot for the first time, a war is being fought over Tasmania's world heritage wilderness. This time, as more than 30 fires continue to burn across the state, it is being fought from the air.\nTasmanian Liberal Premier Will Hodgman and environmental groups last week each enlisted aircraft to shoot footage and get word out on the scale of the damage to internationally protected landscapes.\nFrom Hodgman's perspective, the answer is much less than you've been told.\nFor Greenpeace and the Wilderness Society, it is much more than you might imagine.\nMount Oakleigh, near the Overland Track, last week. Credit:Scott Gelston/The Examiner\nTasmania has been on fire since January 13, when a lightning storm hit the state. Off the back of the driest spring on record and a hotter than average summer, the landscape was ready to burn. Four weeks on, more than 100,000 hectares have been razed, including up to 20,000 hectares of the vast, UN-endorsed protected area that makes up a fifth of the state.\nFor Hodgman, the fires have had a \"devastating impact\", but the extent of the damage has been distorted.\nHe says the fire has burned about 1.2 per cent of the world heritage zone: \"not insignificant, but it could have been much worse\".\nOn Wednesday, Hodgman took to the air in a helicopter chartered by Rob Sherrard, a co-founder of Virgin Australia and now an owner of Tasmania Walking Company, which offers high-end tours through pristine wilderness areas.\nFull disclosure: the five passengers included two from Fairfax Media \u2013 this reporter and a photographer. We were asked along to document that the Overland Track, a 65-kilometre trek through stunning world heritage wilderness between Cradle Mountain and Lake St Clair in the state's central north-west, was safe for hikers.\nThis is true. Charting a path from Hobart to Cradle Mountain and then further north to Burnie, we saw only occasional patches of burnt land. The track is untouched by fire.\nThe pilot navigated a tight path through forest to land on a tiny platform next to a cabin owned by Sherrard's company. There, we met a group of trekkers three days into a six-day hike. While a ragu\u200b prepared by guides simmered on the cabin stove, the hikers \u2013 all from interstate \u2013 said they had some concerns and hadn't known what to expect after hearing about the fires. They had seen and experienced no problems.\nThe Premier presented some with new walking boots, then noted there had been reports by some tourist companies of cancellations. He stressed tourists had nothing to worry about.\n\"I think it's understandable that people across the world would be anxious to know we're doing all we can to protect our precious areas,\" he said. \"The threat is still ongoing, but Tasmania's tourism industry, particularly in our magnificent world heritage area and the national parks, is well and true open.\"\nCoincidentally, the following day, Greenpeace and the Wilderness Society released a 10-minute video shot mostly over alpine landscapes at Lake Mackenzie and Devils Gullet, on the state's central plateau, scarred black and orange.\nThere was also some footage of fire in the Tarkine\u200b, which environmentalists want included in the protected area.\nThe aerial shots near Lake Mackenzie match the photos of blackened pencil and king billy pines and cushion plants first published by Fairfax Media two weeks ago.\nFire ecologists say the dead trees \u2013 some more than 1000 years old \u2013 are part of a confined, Gondwana-era ecosystem unique to Tasmania that in some cases has never burned before.\nIt is these pictures that fuelled warnings that the alpine ecosystem could be completely lost within decades unless more was done to protect it, given the increased risk of fire due to climate change. They led to renewed calls for deeper cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.\nGreenpeace forests campaigner Jessica Panegyres\u200b said the organisation was not trying to deter tourists, but wanted to document the damage fire was doing to a globally important landscape. It was worse than she had expected.\n\"This is a global tragedy that deserves attention,\" she said. \"Many of these trees are not meant to burn. We just really wanted people to be able to see for themselves what is happening.\"\nThe footage may not have been aimed at Hodgman and his government, but he responded angrily. \"It's damn ordinary that you've got environmental activists almost gleefully capitalising on images, naturally caused, which could inflict significant damage on our brand, our reputation,\" he told reporters back in Hobart.\nSo who's right? Arguably, both. The proportion of the world heritage area that has burned is small when compared with the full 15,800 square kilometres, and the Overland Track is fine. But scientists say the alpine ecosystem destroyed will be lost for centuries, perhaps forever, and there's only so much of it. More generally, world heritage landscape is not supposed to be lost.\nThe Premier said the role of climate change would be included in reviews of the fire response. He pointed to the extraordinary number of lightning strikes that started the blazes. \"We received advice of 1000 strikes on one day. The highest recorded in previous years was more like 19,\" he said.\n\"I think it is a reminder to us all that our conditions \u2013 our climate \u2013 is changing, is more volatile, and obviously we rely on the experts and scientists to provide us with advice.\"\nAdam Morton is on Facebook and on Twitter",

        "raw_content": "Holiday Guest Author: David B. Coe aka D.B. Jackson\nAka\u2026 D.B. Jackson\nFirst, a little something about David.\nDavid B. Coe, who also writes as D.B. Jackson, wrote his first novel at the age of six. It was called \u201cJim the Talking Fish,\u201d and it was not really as good as the title makes it sound. David illustrated the story, which did nothing to improve its quality.\nAnd yet, as poor as this first effort might have been, it did mark the beginning of a lifetime passion for dreaming up stories and writing them down so that he might inflict them on others share them with others. Along the way David has dabbled in other professions \u2014 he was a political consultant for several years, and he earned a Ph.D. in U.S. history, flirting with the notion of an academic career before wisely thinking better of it.\nHe began writing full time in 1994, with the love and support of The World\u2019s Best Spouse, and published his first novel in 1997. He is now the award-winning author of more than fifteen novels and a dozen short stories.\nHis newest project, a contemporary urban fantasy called the Case Files of Justis Fearsson, is to be published by Baen Books. The first book, SPELL BLIND, will be released on January 6, 2015. HIS FATHER\u2019S EYES, the second volume, will be published in the summer of 2015, and a third novel is already in the works.\nWriting as D.B. Jackson, he is the author of the Thieftaker Chronicles, a series set in pre-Revolutionary Boston that combines elements of urban fantasy, mystery, and historical fiction. THIEFTAKER, THIEVES\u2019 QUARRY, and A PLUNDER OF SOULS, have already been released, and the fourth volume, DEAD MAN\u2019S REACH will appear in July 2015.\nDavid\u2019s early books include the LonTobyn Chronicle, a trilogy that received the Crawford Fantasy Award as the best work by a new author in fantasy, as well as the critically acclaimed Winds of the Forelands quintet and Blood of the Southlands trilogy. He has also written the novelization of director Ridley Scott\u2019s movie, ROBIN HOOD, starring Russell Crowe. David\u2019s books have been translated into a dozen languages.\nDavid received his undergraduate degree from Brown University and his Master\u2019s and Ph.D. in U.S. history from Stanford University. He co-founded and regularly contributes to the Magical Words group blog (http://magicalwords.net), a site devoted to discussions of the craft and business of writing fantasy, and is co-author of HOW TO WRITE MAGICAL WORDS: A WRITER\u2019S COMPANION.\nHe is still married to The World\u2019s Best Spouse. They have two daughters and live in a small college town on the Cumberland Plateau.\nI wrote my first books when I was six years old. Seriously. I learned to read and then immediately started writing stories. My first was called \u201cJim, the Talking Fish.\u201d It wasn\u2019t very good. I illustrated it myself, and that made it worse. But that was the first. All through elementary school, writing stories was my favorite thing to do. So I knew from early on that I\u2019d wind up a writer.\nI steal them from other people. That\u2019s normal, right?\nMy story ideas come from all over the place. Things I read, places I go, music I hear \u2014 literally anything can spark a story idea. Robert Frost said that \u201cAn idea is a feat of association,\u201d and I find that\u2019s true for me as well. It\u2019s not so much the single notion that inspires me, but instead the juxtaposition of different thoughts brought together in an unexpected way. We imagine things that aren\u2019t immediately obvious, we ask ourselves \u201cWhat if . . . ?\u201d and we\u2019re off to the races.\nActually, no. I tend to do this as little as possible, and here\u2019s why: I\u2019ve found that when I do use real life people as models for characters, it keeps those characters from developing naturally. I allow that person I know to inform my writing too much and so when that character starts to do the unexpected, starts to take on some agency for his/her actions, I resist, thinking \u201cWell, but so-and-so wouldn\u2019t do that . . .\u201d On the other hand, when I create characters entirely from my imagination, without basing them on actual people, they grow more organically and I give them the freedom they need to become active components of my story.\nIt\u2019s interesting you should ask me this right now. Usually, I\u2019m a pretty dedicated plotter. My epic fantasies have a lot of plot threads that I need to coordinate with some care. My historical fantasies (the Thieftaker Chronicles, written under the D.B. Jackson pseudonym) blend fictional mysteries with real world historical time lines. My new urban fantasy series (The Case Files of Justis Fearsson, written under my own name) also have mystery elements and demand a good deal of planning. So all the work I\u2019ve done to date has been stuff that I\u2019v needed to plot.\nBut, I\u2019m currently writing a new epic fantasy, and I had very little sense of where the story was going. So I finally just decided to wing it. To write without an outline. Like a crazy person. At this point \u2014 I\u2019m 70,000 words in \u2014 I like the story as it\u2019s developed, and I\u2019m having a blast discovering my narrative as I go along. Who knows? This could be a new trend for me.\nI do. I know that some people can\u2019t listen to anything at all \u2014 they find any sort of music terribly distracting. And I know other people who can listen to anything at all, even music with lyrics, and it doesn\u2019t bother them one bit. I fall somewhere in the middle. I love listening to music, but only certain kinds. It has to be instrumental. Lyrics mess me up. And I write best when the music has a strong improvisational element \u2014 Classical music tends to constrain my creativity. So I listen to a lot of jazz (Miles Davis, Roy Hargrove, Pat Metheny, Larry Carlton, Nicholas Payton) and instrumental bluegrass (B\u00e9la Fleck, Jerry Douglas, Chris Thile, Tony Rice, Alison Brown, David Grisman).\nThat\u2019s a really hard question. On the one hand, like most authors, I consider my most recent books my best. I\u2019m incredibly proud of all the Thieftaker novels (Tor Books) and I love the Fearsson novels I\u2019m writing now for Baen. The books of both series are lean and compelling and include some of the best character work and sharpest prose I\u2019ve ever written. But I also really love my Winds of the Forelands books, a five-book epic fantasy I wrote for Tor about a decade ago. That\u2019s one of the reasons I\u2019m going back to epic fantasy now. I miss the complexity and sweep of those stories.\nI tend to work slowly when I start a novel \u2014 writing the first page can take me an entire day; the first chapter can be a week or two in the making. But once I get some momentum built up, I average about 2,500 words a day, 12,500 words per week. (I try not to work too much on weekends, unless I\u2019m behind on a deadline.) For those not familiar with word counts, that\u2019s ten manuscript pages a day, or fifty per week. I didn\u2019t used to write at that pace, but I\u2019ve built up to it over the years.\nMy next original release (as opposed to a paperback reissue) is SHADOW\u2019S BLADE, the third book in The Case Files of Justis Fearsson (Baen Books). It comes out in May 2016. This is a contemporary urban fantasy set in Phoenix. My lead character is a private detective, an ex-cop, and a weremyste. Every month, on the full moon, his magic gets stronger and he temporarily loses his mind. These moon phasings are slowly driving him insane, as they did his father. The first two books in the series are SPELL BLIND and HIS FATHER\u2019S EYES, and both are available from all booksellers.\nHave you read my books? Do you know what kind of shit I dump on my characters page after page, story after story? I would never, ever, ever want to be any of them.\nWhen I started out, I wrote only novels. I didn\u2019t really understand how to approach short stories. I thought I could only \u201cwrite to a certain length,\u201d which came out to, like, 200,000 words. My first short story sale was actually a background piece for my Winds of the Forelands series. Everything I did was geared toward the novels.\nBut that changed several years ago. I forced myself to write shorter pieces because \u2014 and I honestly believe this \u2014 writing short stories is harder and demands more skill than writing novels. As soon as I started writing the shorter pieces, forcing myself to tell complete, satisfying stories in 6,000 words, all of my writing improved. That leanness I mentioned earlier, which I see in my latest work, is, I believe, an outgrowth of my increasing commitment to writing short fiction as well as novel length stuff. I\u2019ve learned to do more with less, and that is all to the good. So, at this point I really have no preference; I love writing in both forms.\nOkay, so here is my Writer\u2019s Block Rant. I don\u2019t believe in Writer\u2019s Block. I don\u2019t think it exists, and I think it\u2019s a really foolish concept. Harsh, I know, but bear with me. The problem with the very idea of Writer\u2019s Block is that it pre-supposes writing should be easy. It assumes that writing should always flow smoothly, that finding the correct word ought to be as easy as typing it, that stories never get stuck or turn onto narrative cul-de-sacs. It assumes our characters always behave rationally and answer to our every creative whim, and our settings simply present themselves to us, fully formed and easily described. All of which, of course, is horse crap. Writing is hard. Writing tears at our souls. Writing torments us. Writing is fits and starts, it\u2019s days spent staring at a blank screen getting nothing done. That\u2019s as much a part of the creative process as those rare golden days when everything DOES flow like mountain water. And so what people call Writer\u2019s Block, I call writing. End of Rant.\nWell, they should begin by memorizing my rant on Writer\u2019s Block . . .\nSeriously, they should understand that writing is hard work, that it doesn\u2019t necessarily pay well, and that career paths are rarely linear or uninterrupted ascents to fame and fortune. This is a difficult, at times soul-crushing business. Aspiring writers should know, first and foremost, that they\u2019re writing for the right reason: because they love the story, the characters, the creative process. If they\u2019re doing it because they think it\u2019s easy money, or just something they can do in a half-assed way, they need to think again.\nSecond, they should know that writing to the market is a bad idea. The market is a moving target. There is absolutely no guarantee that what\u2019s popular when you start a novel will still be popular when that novel is completed and edited and ready for release. The aspiring writer should write the story s/he loves, the story that\u2019s burning a hole in her/his chest trying to get free. If s/he loves what s/he writes, that passion will come through in the prose and storytelling. In other words, write the best story possible, and the market side of things will take care of itself.\nThird, there is no such thing as a perfect novel. Everything that has ever been published has some flaw in it. If a writer edits and polishes and works and works and works trying to make that novel utterly flawless, s/he will spend an entire lifetime on that one project and will never send it out for publication. Which isn\u2019t much of a career. Make the book as good as it can be, and then submit it. Publishers understand that books rarely cross their desks as perfect finished novels. That\u2019s what editors are for. Write it, have people read it, revise and polish, and then send it out and get to work on the next thing. That\u2019s how one builds a career.\nThanks David.

        "raw_content": "James Redmond from Calne in Wiltshire is a graduate of the BSc (Hons) Live Event Technology. He is a Laser Technician for ER Productions, working on music videos, television shows and world tours for the likes of Chemical Brothers.\nI set up and operate lasers for shows around the world and am currently on tour with the Australian Pink Floyd Show. I heard of the job through another USW graduate, who works at the company. Me and another student applied, were interviewed and both got jobs before we graduated.\nMy favourite part of the job is the travel; we get to see a huge amount of the world and experience loads of different things.\nThere is also the opportunity to work alongside some of the best people in the industry at some of the highest levels of production so it\u2019s a brilliant learning experience for someone who only graduated a year-and-a-half ago!\nWhy it\u2019s a great job\nBeing part of a big show that you have helped set up and programme is really a big achievement. Having an input, either as part of a team or working on your own, for a sold out arena or a TV show, is a fantastic feeling.\nThis job is fantastic because it\u2019s constantly pushing me as a technician whilst presenting me with lots of opportunities to learn new technical skills such as networking, programming and general tour experience.\nI chose to study Live Event Technology as coming from smaller touring work, I wanted to expand my technical knowledge and push myself to the next level of touring work arenas etc. Without the course, I would never have gained the skills that were recognised in my interview and got me the job as a laser technician.\nIn my opinion, there are two aspects of the course that really stand out. Firstly, the most valuable aspect was the constant push for us to take ownership of our own development. In my short experience, being able to go out and learn how to use a new piece of kit or software on your own, especially in a time-pressured situation, is key to being able to stay up to date and relevant in industry.\nSecondly was the lecturers\u2019 drive to help us with networking and industry contacts, with the end goal of getting us work. Networking is a massive part of what is quite a small industry, so social skills and the ability to make contacts are key to getting and maintaining work.\nIn my final year, I did an internship in Dubai with Eclipse. It was a brilliant experience and allowed me to use the sound skills I had developed throughout the course in a real life situation. It also meant I could take the experience of working abroad straight into my new job, which was helpful. I also did an internship with Robe Lighting UK where I spent a week working with them at PLASA [insert link] which was a fantastic opportunity to network. They also provided me with training which helped develop my technical skills for Lighting.\nThis course gave me a good all-round base for key parts of the live event industry. It provided a solid core of teaching in a practical environment and a set of skills that have served me well over the past year-and-a-half as I have started my professional career.\nThe lecturers provided brilliant support during the course and since graduating. I know they are there for help and advice, and it\u2019s always nice to catch up with them - normally when bumping into them on site!\nI would 100% recommend this course for anyone looking to get into the live event industry.",

        "raw_content": "4th December 2018 /Comments Off on Christmas\nChristmas is celebrated on the 25 December (7 January for Orthodox Christians).\nChristmas is a Christian holy day that marks the birth of Jesus who Christians believe to be the Son of God.\nAdvent is the period which leads up to Christmas. It starts on the Sunday nearest to November 30th.\nMany Advent customs involve counting the days until Christmas begins.\nSome churches have an advent wreath with five candles, one for each of the four Sundays leading up to Christmas Day and one for the day itself.\nThe full story of Jesus\u2019 birth and the events surrounding it can be found in the Bible in the book of Matthew, Chapters 1 and 2, with a slightly different account in Luke, Chapters 1 and 2.\nThese two gospels tell slightly different accounts because they each wrote for a different audience. Matthew wrote for the Jews, Luke wrote for the non-Jews (Gentiles), so they emphasized different things.\n\u2018Nativity\u2019 is the word often used for the story of Jesus\u2019 birth. Both gospel accounts are used to piece the story together. This is a summary of the nativity story:\nJesus was born to a woman called Mary who was engaged to Joseph, a carpenter, in the town of Bethlehem.\nBefore Jesus was born, Mary was visited by an angel who told her that she would give birth to a baby and that the baby would be called Jesus, also sometimes known as Emmanuel, which means \u2018God with us\u2019\nHow Christians celebrate Christmas\nJesus was born in Bethlehem because Joseph and Mary had gone there to take part in a census as this was. Joseph\u2019s home town.\nAccording to tradition when Mary and Joseph arrived in Bethlehem the local inn was already full with people returning for the census. The innkeeper let them stay in the rock cave below his house which was used as a stable for his animals. It was here, with the animals, that Mary gave birth to her son and laid him in a manger.\nLuke and Matthew both tell of visitors to the baby Jesus. In Matthew\u2019s account, wise men visit Jesus. They had followed a star that led them to Jesus and they presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. These were signs of kingship and holiness. Luke tells how humble and poor shepherds were led to Jesus by an angel. For Christians this shows that Jesus came for all people of all races and backgrounds.\nMatthew\u2019s account goes on to tell of Joseph being warned in a dream to escape to Egypt with Jesus and Mary as King Herod was going to be looking for the child to kill him. So during the night, they left Israel and started out on the journey to Egypt where they remained until after Herod\u2019s death.\nThe story of Jesus\u2019 birth (the nativity) is often retold by children through \u2018Nativity Plays\u2019\nChurch services often include carol singing \u2013 these are happy songs which tell the Christmas story.\nSome Christians start Christmas Day with a midnight communion service (midnight mass).\nThe celebration of Christmas is often accompanied by the giving and receiving of presents and cards. This reminds Christians of the gift of Jesus, the son of God, beginning his earthly life.\nWhere does the word Christmas come from? It does not seem to be mentioned in the Bible.\nIt comes from the words \u2018Christ\u2019 and \u2018mass\u2019. \u2018Christ\u2019 means \u2018the chosen one\u2019 in Greek, and is used by Christians to describe Jesus as they believe he was chosen to be God\u2019s son. As for the \u2018-mas\u2019 part, this refers to the \u2018mass\u2019 or church service held to thank God for the birth of Christ. The full story of Jesus\u2019 birth and the events surrounding it can be found in the Bible in the book of Matthew, Chapters 1 and 2, with a slightly different account in Luke, Chapters 1 and 2.\nWhy did the wise men bring Jesus those unusual gifts?\nAlthough they are sometimes called kings, the Bible tells us they were actually just wise men. There is no record of how many of them there were, but tradition has it that there were only three because of the three gifts mentioned. The early church saw each of the gifts as representing different aspects of Jesus\u2019 character: the gold pointed to his royalty, the incense to his divine nature, while the myrrh hinted at his death to come as myrrh was essential for embalming dead bodies.\nWhy did King Herod want to kill Jesus?\nLike many rulers of that era, Herod was ruthless and power hungry. He would stop at nothing. Previously, he had murdered his wife, his three sons and his uncle, as well as countless other people. Jesus was a threat to him so killing many infants in order to get rid of Jesus was not an obstacle for Herod.",

        "raw_content": "59 districts support Race to the Top\nTALLAHASSEE -- Fifty-nine school districts, three lab schools and the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind all pledged their support Tuesday to the state's revamped effort to bring in $700 million in federal dollars for Florida schools.\nTuesday was the deadline for school districts and unions to sign a memorandum of understanding that outlines the state's proposal to alter dramatically the public school system through the U.S. Department of Education's Race to the Top grant program. Florida had long been expected to take the top prize in the first round of competition this spring, but came up short, placing fourth behind Delaware, Tennessee and Georgia.\nThe state Department of Education, with the help of a work group appointed by Gov. Charlie Crist, remapped the state's application with the specific intention to gain support from the teachers' unions, which spoke out against the plan in the first round. U.S. education officials noted the lack of union support as a major flaw in the state's proposal and it was a major factor in the fourth place finish.\nA spokesman for the statewide union, the Florida Education Association, said earlier this month that the FEA was pleased with the changes made to the application and would recommend to their members that they support it. The state union was particularly happy with the greater importance placed on struggling schools and that the proposal wasn't so wide in scope as the original.\nAccording to the DOE, of the 59 districts that have pledged their support, the corresponding local union also supported in all but 12 cases. Two of the state's largest district unions -- Miami-Dade and Duval -- are supporting the state's plan.\nThe new application still centers on many of the first round goals -- mainly teacher merit pay. But it would not be imposed on districts where an agreement could not be reached via the local collective bargaining process. The revamped proposal also puts more focus on struggling schools creating four potential intervention models for the state's worst schools and ensuring that teachers are provided additional support across all content and grade levels. During the first round, only five districts' unions supported the application with the majority of districts approving the plan. The only districts not to support the application in the first round were Bradford, Broward, Collier, Holmes, Lee, Okeechobee and Polk.\nThe Department of Education will put out a final list of schools supporting the memorandum of understanding this morning to include any additional applications that filter in Tuesday night. The final application is due to the U.S. Department of Education on June 1.",

Immigration policy is not just about the \u2018best and brightest\u2019, but straightforward access to the skills needed to help grow our economy. The test of the government\u2019s new immigration rules will be whether they let businesses access skills and talent quickly and easily when companies can demonstrate that they have been unable to hire or train the people they need here in the UK.\n\u201cMany firms will be very worried about the potential for increased red tape and bureaucracy for job applicants. Businesses have waited long enough, the government must urgently clarify how its new immigration rules will work in practice. They must work with business on a phased approach to change so that companies of all sizes and sectors can continue to recruit and invest with confidence.\n\u201cControlling immigration is one thing \u2013 but the government should also take this golden opportunity to drop arbitrary migration caps and targets, which give many of the very people we need the sense that the UK is closed for business.\u201d\nOn EU nationals already in the UK, Marshall added:\n\u201cIt took the government over two years to make the unequivocal commitment to EU nationals living and working in the UK that should have been made the day after the referendum. Ministers must ensure that the process for EU nationals to confirm their residency is simple and inexpensive \u2013 and implemented quickly to ensure our colleagues and friends feel secure and wanted.\u201d",

        "title": "Happy New Year to all Rastas | The Sunday Mail",
        "raw_content": "Happy New Year to all Rastas\nIbo Foroma : Rastafarian Perspectives\nTHE Ethiopian Year is divided into 12 months of 30 days each, and a 13th month of five days (six in a leap year).Pagumen is from the Greek \u201cEpagomenaih merai\u201d, which means \u201csupplementary days\u201d and is the last month followed by Maskaram.\nMaskaram 1 usually falls on September 11 on the Gregorian or Babylon calendar or September 12 in leap years.\nNyabinghi Theocratic Order brethren and sistren including all Rastafarians are reveling: \u201cHappy New Year!\u201d\nEgypt and Kush is one, the same calendar is used in both African countries, by Coptics and Tewahedos and is a product of Black people. All Africans are invited to join in celebrating this original and accurate New Year festival.\nBlack people from ancient times invented the calendar and recording of time resulting in the same time keeping systems we use to this day.\nIn ancient Egypt and Ethiopia (Kush/Nubia/Punt) the number six was used to represent time and space.\nSix is the cosmic number of the material world and therefore is the number chosen by the Ancients to symbolise both time and space.\nThey considered the three dimensions of space to be six as in the mathematical co-ordinates of (x;-x; y;-y; z; -z) or length, width and height.\nTime and space are two sides of the same coin and these elements are perfectly represented in the science of astronomy and its application, astrology. Scientists now agree that there is a very close connection between space and time, so close that you can\u2019t have one without the other.\nAnything to do with timekeeping, for the Ancient Ethiopians, was and is based on the number six, or its multiples. The whole day was/is 24 hours (6 x 4), consisting of 12 hours of day time(6 x 2), and 12 hours of night time (6 x 2).\nThe hour was/is 60 minutes (6 x 10), and the minute was/is 60 seconds (6 x 10). The month was/is 30 days (6 x 5). The year was/is 12 months (6 x 2). The Great Zodiac Year contained 12 Zodiac Ages origins.\nThis corresponds to Jacob/ Israel\u2019s 12 sons and one daughter and Jesus\u2019 twelve male disciples and one female. The female counterpart is represented by the 13th month.\nThe Ethiopian calendar is eight behind the Gregorian calendar from January 1 to September 11 and seven years behind between September 12 and December 31. Thus, the Ethiopian New Year begins on the 1st M\u00e4sk\u00e4r\u00e4m and is called \u00c9nkutatash.\nEthiopian tradition confirms that the word \u201c\u00c9nkutatash\u201d is derived from what King Solomon said when he gave his present to the Queen of Shaba/Sheba/Saba, an Ethiopian Queen who visited King Solomon in Jerusalem. \u00c9nkul\u00e4tat\u00e9sh, meaning \u2018jewelfor your finger\u2019.\nFrom the \u201cK\u00e9br\u00e4 N\u00e4g\u00e4st\u201d or Glory of Kings, \u201cAnd the Queen (Shaba) rejoiced, and she went forth in order to depart, and the king (Solomon) set her on her way with great pomp and ceremony.\nAnd Solomon took her aside so that they might be alone together, and he gave it to the Queen, and said unto her, \u201cTake this (ring) so that thou mayest not forget me. And if it happens that I obtain seed from thee, this ring shall be unto it a sign, and if it be a man child he shall come to me; and the peace of God be with thee.\u201d\nTherefore, according to the Biblical Book of Kings, this festival \u00c9nkutatash has been celebrated since those Old Testament times.\nEthiopian scholars also relate this feast with the waters of the flood which happened during the time of Noah (Genesis 7 and 8).\nAccording to this view, the celebration of \u00c9nkutatash started from the moment when the dove came back to Noah and his family in the ark carrying an olive leaf in her mouth from which Noah understood that the flood was abated. As soon as he learnt this, he came out from the ark and offered a sacrifice of aromatic flowers unto Jah Ras Tafari.\nHence Ethiopians, at home and abroad, celebrate \u00c9nkutatash, which happened after the rainy season by having reeds and bouquets of flowers decorating rainbow Ethiopia.\nAs the festival falls in September, at the end of the big rains, nature is hand in glove with the event. The pounding rainy season being over, grains and corn springing up, flowers and trees blooming; and even the birds decked out in their brightest plumage, which, as the season advances, they lose, and recover only with the rains.\nThe sun comes out to shine all day long creating an atmosphere of dazzling clarity and clean fresh air. It is the beginning of a New Year even here in the southern hemisphere, life is springing.\nIn Ethiopia, from one\u2019s window can be heard the twittering of birds. Resurrecting the ancient incident, these small and pretty birds are to be pictured fluttering from flower to flower. These birds are named as \u201cy\u00e4m\u00e4sk\u00e4lw\u00e4foch,\u201d meaning \u2018the birds of the cross.\u2019\nOn the streets are the passers-by going to and from wafting bouquets of fresh sweet scenting flowers. These are a rhapsody of colour and are twined about by long green lemon grass which adds to the floral perfume. It would seem as if M\u00e4sk\u00e4r\u00e4m is nothing without flowers.\nEthiopian princesses (girls) clad in brand new clothes and rainbow colours, dance through the villages and convey the message of spring time and renewed life through their songs, giving bouquets of flowers and painted pictures to each household.\nThis symbolism is linked to the first plant brought by the dove to the ark of Noah after the floods, which plant is said to have been the flower \u201cengicha\u201d.",

I am a privileged woman having the chance to be a wife of a military officer of my country. Well, woman like me is so proud for I am loving and is loved by one of those true heroes of the nation.\nIt had been a good relationship. Perfect as my friends define it. He is really a man that meets the standards of an idealist woman and a man who knows how to take good care of a woman that he loves. Moments are so beautiful. Moments are perfect. It feels like being a princess of one of those Disney love stories. It is a crazy-happy-fullfilling memories we\u2019ve built. However, as his profession dictates, I lost him very untimely. He was killed during military operation. And, I\u2026I was left with just beautiful memories.\nSometimes in our lives, we do not need to have a lifetime guarantees of happiness. Reality is, all we have are just HERE AND NOW. So, make the most of every single chance that heaven gives especially in making those people close to your heart feel the merriment with you. We can\u2019t bring back the moment we lost. Make sure that when you lost a moment, the time it flashes back, it makes you feel happy and fulfilled. Yes, I have been through pain even until now. Of course, having a man died in an abrupt time is truly difficult. However, whenever I look back to those days we shared the love and the joy, it gives strength to carry on. It actually makes me realized that I have no reason to be upset. He came, he came, he came to give my life its real meaning and the meaning is\u2026giving value of every little detail of life that will make us happy. No pressure of all the was and were and will. Secure your life with what are laid on your table. Our life isn\u2019t about how it started, nor on how it will be ended because it is always about \u201cwhat we are doing with the given chances\u201d.\nSpend life. Be happy!\nLastly, let GOD be your priority for HE knows what are the best for us. HE will surely guide us on our paths and will grant us WISDOM for a greater life\u2026",

He was 41.\nAs the story goes, it was Bennington who thought of naming the band in honor of Santa Monica\u2019s Lincoln Park, which had become mostly known for its homeless encampment and problems with drugs.\nThe City spent $520,000 and nine months renovating Lincoln Park before its re-opening in 1995. Three years later, it was renamed Christine Emerson Reed Park after the council member.\n(\"One More Light\" album cover, courtesy Warner Brothers)\nBefore the renovations, Bennington was accustomed to driving by Lincoln Park on his way to rehearsals with the band he had recently landed a spot on, then known as \u201cXerox.\u201d\nThe name-change was a go, but the spelling was changed to acquire an internet URl name, linkinpark.com.\nIts founders -- Sinoda, Rob Bourdon and Brad Delson -- were buddies from their days at Agoura High School in Agoura Hills. They recruited Bennington from Arizona.\nA compelling force on stage, Bennington\u2019s vocals were often explosions of pain, hopelessness and vulnerability. His early life had been scarred by sexual abuse.\nLater, it was filled with battles over depression, substance abuse and addiction.\nHe was open about his struggles. But despite his personal ups and downs Bennington remained a driving force for Linkin Park, which reached its first success with its 2000 debut album, \u201cHybrid Theory,\u201d a mix of heavy metal and hip-hop.\nLinkinPark\u2019s sound, though, was shot through with Bennington\u2019s anguished lyrics in such songs such as \u201cCrawling\u201d and \u201cIn the End.\u201d\nLinkin Park\u2019s popularity didn\u2019t falter. Its new album, \u201cOne More Light,\u201d debuted at the top of the charts when it was released in May.\nOn Thursday, mourning for Bennington began.\n\u201cChester Bennington was an artist of extraordinary talent and charisma, and a human being with a huge heart and a caring soul,\u201d Warner Bros. Records CEO/ Chairman Cameron Strang said in a statement.\nBennington\u2019s inner turmoil seemed to have calmed, at least in interviews, as the band prepared to release its new album, \"One More Light,\" which was released in May and featured a cover shot in Venice Beach.\n\u201cWhere I\u2019m at right now in 2017 is as far on the opposite side of the scale to where I was at this time in 2015,\u201d he told Rock Sound. \u201cI literally hated life and I was like, \u2018I don\u2019t want to have feelings.\u2019 And now I\u2019m like, \u2018Bring it on!\u2019 \u201d\nBennington is survived by his wife Talinda Bennington and his six children.",

A couple of my performances have been really good and at the same time I haven\u2019t been pleased with a couple of performances but I think for me pre-season was all about getting through it and getting fitter. I\u2019m certainly fitter! It did take a bit of getting used to and I think my legs are still catching up a little bit but I do feel much fitter in terms of endurance. My legs are probably a little behind and after having a word with Claudio (Donatelli) hopefully they\u2019ll be catching up within the next week or so just in time for the season.\u201d\nHaving joined the Town in January, the former Gillingham man is currently in his first pre-season programme under Paolo Di Canio and has enjoyed the experience despite the hype from his team-mates.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been brilliant for me,\" he said. \"I knew what I was coming in to. All the boys talked it up saying I\u2019d never seen anything like it and even the lads who have come in - the likes of Tommy Miller and Alan Navarro who have played at a higher level - they\u2019ve come in and said it\u2019s the toughest pre season they\u2019ve ever had.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve got Crystal Palace and Brighton, two Championship sides coming up so, with all due respect, a much sterner test than Salisbury. We\u2019ve done really well - it\u2019s been a good pre-season so far and we\u2019ve got just one game before the real stuff starts.\u201d",

They do things that surprise us, and that's one of many things that makes like worth living...\nI've seen probably two dozen lunar eclipses. They're pretty, but they're slow. It takes a while to notice the shadow of the Earth slowly creeping across the lunar face. This makes it hard for me to get really excited about them. I enjoy them, of course, but it's also hard to sustain a high level of excitement when you keep going back inside and outside every 15 minutes to watch the eclipse's glacial progress.\nBut then I saw this image, and all was forgiven:\nMan, that's brilliant. I'll never see another lunar eclipse the same way.\nAnd that image is one of many at Laurent Laveder's Photoastronomique site. Like Thierry Legault (as I previously blogged), he is a true artist, and a very clever one at that. Check out the rest of his eclipse images. He has a fantastic way to visualize the Earth's shadow on the sky. His stuff is so cool!\nHat tip to good ol' APOD, and to Laurent for giving me permission to use his wonderful picture.",

This is the 143rd in a series of interviews with security gurus, and I\u2019m super pleased to have today with me Elena Kvochko. Hi, Elena.\nElena Kvochko: Hi, Gary.\nGary: Elena Kvochko is CIO, Group Security Function, at a top 20 financial services organization that shall remain nameless. Previously, she was manager in Information Technology Industry at World Economic Forum, where she led global partnership programs on cyber resilience and the Internet of Things and was responsible for developing relationships with top information technology industry partners.\nElena is author of numerous articles and has contributed to Forbes, the New York Times, Harvard Business Review, and other media outlets. Elena is also a member of the Wall Street Journal CIO Council. She holds both CISSP and CEH certifications and has a master\u2019s degree in technology policy from UMass, as well as executive certificates from MIT and Yale. She lives in New York City\u2014apparently with a broken leg. So how is your leg doing?\nElena: Well, you got a lot of information, Gary. It\u2019s on the recovery path, hopefully.\nGary: I\u2019m glad to hear that. We\u2019ll talk about that later in the episode, maybe at the very end. So I thought we\u2019d start by getting some information from you about how you got into information security in the first place.\nElena: Sure. I will tell you I started my career in cyber security probably out of frustration. I was working in technology implementation and risk assessment and risk analysis, and I saw that many of the technical projects that I was working on\u2014even say, like, the bids for large infrastructure projects\u2014did not contain security components a few years ago. And so I was looking for a way to change that situation at scale to impact the perception and the situation on the ground and influence the executives and business leaders and make them understand that they have to invest in security.\nSo from that point on, I switched into cyber security and stayed in this field. And it has been a great journey and a steep learning curve.\nGary: It\u2019s kind of hilarious to be frustrated enough to get into a very frustrating field.\nElena: Right. But this is how\u2026\nGary: Somewhat ironic.\nElena: Yeah.\nGary: Would you consider yourself more of a policy wonk or more of a technologist? Because you have a deep background in both.\nElena: Yeah, I think in my job I have to combine both. I have to combine experience in business operations and execution and management with both knowledge of technology and systems and critical systems and how to make them compliant and more secure and advance into the next level. So it would probably be a combination of both.\nGary: And you hold a CISSP and a CEH (that\u2019s Certified Ethical Hacker, for those of you who don\u2019t know certification)\u2014which is definitely on the geeky side\u2014and executive certs in management from prestigious institutions. Can you compare and contrast those sets of credentials for us?\nElena: Oh, absolutely. I think if you work in a large enterprise and if you try to kind of improve the way technology management or security management is done, I think it\u2019s important to have an understanding of both the technical side and the business side. So, the CISSP, CEH, and other credentials, they do help demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the technical side in addition to the day-to-day on-the-job practice and training that everyone gets. Because our industry and our field changes so fast that unless you keep yourself current, you know, it\u2019s hard to perform. I think everybody in our industry understands that.\nAnd on the management side, it\u2019s important to relate what we\u2019re seeing on the technical side, the attacker side, to business and management executives so that they understand how to prioritize the decision-making process. I think for anyone kind of working in that field, that are striving to be at the leadership level, it\u2019s important to have an understanding of both.\nGary: Right. Yeah, that makes sense. So you find them both equally valuable, but for slightly different audiences. Is that one way to put it maybe?\nElena: Yes, or even for the same audience but just be able to digest or adjust the message depending on the situation.\nGary: Right. So towards that end, what are the duties of a security-facing CIO, like you are now, and how do they differ from CISO duties, which we spent a few episodes talking about on Silver Bullet?\nElena: Sure. So my focus and what I\u2019m particularly passionate about it is, how can we find ways to deliver the highest possible degree of privacy and security that protects all of the enterprise, all of the clients? And one of the areas that I\u2019m particularly proud of that I\u2019ve been working on is what I call \u201cend-to-end\u201d or \u201cholistic\u201d security. So if you look at the way most enterprises grew or developed, they grew through organic growth or acquisitions. And what it led to is that a lot of even Fortune 500 companies, they operate and function in silos.\nIf you develop different products that are targeted towards different audiences, that may be a beneficial setup. You kind of have to encourage every business unit to perform. But if you\u2019re looking at the security side, that\u2019s one of the areas that we in the industry are trying to overcome and move towards a holistic perspective, connecting and gaining visibility across the product lines, across the business lines, and being able to have this holistic perspective through data and through being able to connect the indicators and the events to see what would be the best response or what would be the best allocation of resources.\nSo I think achieving a holistic perspective is where our industry will go and where I think all other enterprises should be investing or paying attention to.\nGary: That makes a lot of sense. But I\u2019ve got to tell you, that sounds an awful lot like a CISO to me. So in your mind, what\u2019s the difference? Or in your enterprise\u2019s mind, what\u2019s the difference? Or really are they just fundamentally similar?\nElena: I think it depends on kind of the composition or the setup of the team. We do focus on, for instance, implementing the privacy standards, remediating things like technical debt, improving critical system security or vendor management or other areas that help enable this holistic perspective, both on the technical side and operation side. And there is no one recipe for how to set up effective security function. I think it would really depend on the industry and on the operational setup of the company.\nGary: I totally agree with that. And in fact, we just did the CISO Report, which you might have listened to Craig Froelich talk about last episode. And that found four different approaches even to the CISO role that were directly bound to the enterprises. So I think your view there is exactly right on. I guess the matter of titles is still complicated, and it\u2019s evolving. So there\u2019s some opinions about whether CISOs should report to CIOs or they should be in a different organization. And nobody\u2019s really figured it out yet. I guess we\u2019re all looking to figure that out.\nElena: Right.\nGary: I did want to ask you what it was like to move from NGO land in the World Economic Forum, in the World Bank, to corporate life. Was that a big change for you, or was it very similar?\nElena: For me it was a very interesting transition and a great career development for me personally. In my previous job, I had a portfolio, a number of companies I was working with to drive these standards. And for instance, things like, how do we better quantify the cyber threats? So it\u2019s where are the areas that no one company could solve alone or on its own? Whereas in my current job, I\u2019m specifically focusing on making, the security of an enterprise better.\nSo there\u2019s a lot of related aspects, but also you\u2019re able to focus on one enterprise and one goal, which is also great. And you\u2019re able to see the progress.\nGary: Yeah. I was going to ask you that. So, I mean, this is a little bit of a mean question, but is it easier to get stuff done in corporate land than it was in NGO land?\nElena: I don\u2019t know, Gary. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s a fair question, to be honest. I think it\u2019s really\u2026You cannot, kind of like, classify by the industry or the sector. It\u2019s more about the team that you work with, right? And if you\u2019re passionate about your job, if you have a great team to work with, anything is possible, right? And so it\u2019s really about the culture probably more than anything else.\nGary: Right. That makes sense. So I wanted to spend a few minutes on a handful of technical topics and their security ramifications. Not too many, like maybe 2 minutes each on four things. So I\u2019ll just name the things, and then you can say whatever comes to mind or what you think the implications are for security. The first is boundaryless\u2014or let\u2019s just say perimeterless massively distributed systems, which we\u2019re building all the time. What is the impact on security of those things?\nElena: If you look at the landscape on kind of a broader, on a global level, you see that the number of mobile phones right now has exceeded the number of people on earth. And today we see a much wider application of technologies and adoption of computers. And the number of population that\u2019s online has exceeded half of the world\u2019s population. And it has become commonplace that every company right now is a technology company. So, and new platforms are being built to deliver the services and products that weren\u2019t even considered before.\nI think the implication of all this is that nearly everything we do right now and everything that happens in the enterprise, it generates data. And with the advancement of this big data analytics and with the advancement of those technologies that produce and generate a tremendous amount of data, I think it\u2019s a great opportunity for us in security and technology to make things better to be able to predict what\u2019s going to happen and to be able to answer the questions that we were not able to answer before.\nGary: That\u2019s very optimistic. I worry about this boundary problem. You know, perimeter security is great when you have a perimeter. But perimeters are disappearing. So it seems like we\u2019re making progress, we\u2019re making lots more data, but we also don\u2019t have these choke points we used to have.\nElena: Yes, but that\u2019s the reality right now, right? So we cannot go back to perimeter basics really anymore. We live in this world, so I think we have to adjust based on what we have.\nGary: Yeah, good answer. That\u2019s exactly right. No. 2, sorry about how, you know, whatever, trendy this is, but blockchain technology and international markets.\nElena: Yeah, that\u2019s a great question. I think there\u2019s definitely a lot of interesting use cases that are being explored with blockchain for IT security, for authentication, for the payment space or any other peer-to-peer transactions. And I\u2019ve definitely seen examples of some really great applications. I think, kind of again, the optimistic part of it, a lot of the investments are being allocated into the field. And I\u2019m sure we\u2019re going to see a lot more applications of that at scale, as opposed to more kind of contained, local use cases that we\u2019re seeing right now.\nGary: Yeah, it\u2019ll be interesting to see when that gets into more normal economic markets and standard channels, to see what happens with blockchain.\nWe\u2019ll be right back after this message.\nThird thing\u2014and this is, you know, towards my own heart\u2014building security in and proactive security design versus reactive security.\nElena: Yeah, Gary. Like I said, I think in the world that we live in, you can no longer afford to be reactive, right? So you can no longer just look at your logs or indicators and look for what has already hit you, right? You have to look for what will hit you. And this is where you have to invest the resources to be able to be, like you say, proactive, you know. We sometimes use the term \u201cintelligence-driven defense\u201d or \u201cdata-driven defense,\u201d right?\nSo you do have to look at what will happen to your organization based on the experiences that you had or your industry peers had or just where the threats are going. So you have to be more forward-looking. You can no longer afford to stay reactive.\nGary: And the good news is, I think, we\u2019ve made a lot of progress on that in the last 10 years. There\u2019s plenty more to do.\nElena: Exactly. Yeah.\nGary: And then the last thing, I guess, which gets towards your policy wonkness: impact of economic theory on security.\nElena: You mean from the perspective of investments or from what angle?\nGary: Oh, it doesn\u2019t really matter. I mean, just thinking about how economic systems work and whether, by analog, we can bring those into security and drive security decisions, is what I\u2019m thinking about.\nElena: Yeah, you\u2019re right. I think you\u2019re right in the sense that right now, a lot of the security decisions, they are driven and based on economics, right? And you have to almost justify and show the return on investments, which sometimes, you know, it can be challenging for the firms that haven\u2019t invested in those metrics.\nGary: Yes.\nElena: But I do think that, again, it\u2019s not optional to invest in security. It\u2019s part of every business. It\u2019s mandatory. If you cannot maintain security, you cannot maintain trust. Therefore, you cannot retain your customers in your business. So it\u2019s something that should be at the core of every enterprise. It\u2019s not something that you would add at the end of your product development life cycle but rather integrate straight into your requirements collection, and product development, and testing, and rollout, and user education\u2014something that should be integrated throughout the whole life cycle of your business.\nGary: So I guess I meant\u2026Let me ask you another question. Let\u2019s see if we can get it this way. You\u2019ve studied the economic impact of breaches on stock prices and market cap. And that was very interesting work that you did. So tell us about those findings, and then tell us whether you\u2019re seeing the same thing with the Equifax breach that you saw with those other historical breaches.\nElena: Yeah, I think when I looked at that, what I noticed is that there was no good way for investors, or there was no good way for just the market, to be able to price those breaches or to be able to assess the impact. And this is why I was working on the question of, how do we better quantify the cyber threats? I think there has been a lot of progress made in terms of what data can be used, and actually even the availability of data, historical data, or be able to predict the events that were done since I looked at that question. But broadly, I do think there is still a limited ability to implement it at scale.\nAnd I think\u2026but I think the industry\u2014in particular, insurance industries and others\u2014are really looking closely into this and making this, kind of like, pricing or quantification mechanisms more available and more rigorous.\nGary: So you feel like there is progress being made there? Because, I mean, one of the striking things that you showed, that you demonstrated with facts, was, \u201cHey, you know what? Stock price, it might have a little local hit, but it doesn\u2019t go down because of even a major breach, when you look at Target and Home Depot and all those guys.\u201d And I guess I\u2019m not sure what happened with Equifax. Did you look into that one at all?\nElena: Yeah. And I think the reason for that, Gary, is because really there\u2019s just no good way to connect the impact of the breach to the long-term business impact, you know?\nGary: Right, right.\nElena: So I think right now, as we all are becoming more aware, and as our companies are becoming more aware, and even as consumers are becoming more aware, the impact might be more visible, but I think it yet remains to be seen. You probably won\u2019t see a huge change overnight. That will take some time to get there.\nGary: Right, right, right. I guess it\u2019s an externality that\u2019s difficult to bring into a system.\nAnother topic entirely. So you\u2019re both an immigrant to the United States and a female in technology. And so I\u2019m wondering, are there similarities in the sets of challenges that have to be overcome in both sets of people, both new immigrants to the country and also females in tech? Or is there any relationship there?\nElena: That\u2019s an interesting question. I think that our industry is developing so fast and moving so fast that there is still lack of talent, right? And the industry\u2019s hungry for talent. So if you\u2019re talented and you know what you\u2019re doing, there\u2019s great opportunities in the field, right? There\u2019s obviously the challenges that women face in technology that everybody knows about. But, I\u2019m still optimistic. I have, for instance, you know, started and joined a lot of women-in-security initiatives to help advance the role of the women\u2014or even the percentage of the women in the industry\u2014as in, kind of, influence that through the hiring decisions or other ways that can help bring in more diversity in the industry.\nI think this is something that I\u2019ve seen a lot of my industry peers do. You know, I think that everyone, if they\u2019re at a decision-making level where they can impact the composition of the team, should be focusing on this. Because with diversity comes diversity of perspectives. And with diversity of perspectives comes innovation. So in the end, we\u2019re all going to benefit from it.\nGary: Yeah, I totally agree with that. And I do think we\u2019ve made progress in women in technology, at least in terms of awareness so far. And we have a long way to go in terms of practice. But I\u2019m also wondering whether the challenges faced by new immigrants are similar in nature, just because, I mean, I don\u2019t have personal experience with either one of these sets. So what do you think about that?\nElena: So my personal perspective is that the U.S. is a very welcoming country, or was a very welcoming country, towards immigrants, and it\u2019s a country with great opportunities. So whoever\u2014right now it might be a difficult time, but whoever wants to make a career in the industry, there\u2019s still great opportunities that they can leverage. So you\u2019re right totally, to a certain extent, the challenges might be similar in the sense that you have to prove yourself. It\u2019s kind of like you can never afford to stop, but you have to always keep improving your level and performance and show that your work is valuable. So in that sense, that\u2019s probably similar. So\u2026but yeah, as I said, I remain optimistic about the prospects for everyone.\nGary: Yeah, and I think that the first point that you made is exactly right on the money. Boy, do we need people. We need all kinds of people. We have a huge gap in skills and skilled people, and anything we can do to make the set of possible people we can pick from larger, the better off we\u2019re going to be.\nGary: So, when I see all these whiny articles about how many information security professionals we need, I just think, \u201cWell, why aren\u2019t you talking to women? Come on.\u201d It\u2019s not really that hard.\nElena: And to your point, Gary, I think a lot of the times, it comes down to managers giving an opportunity to maybe a younger person, to maybe a person who hasn\u2019t exactly had the same experience, but you see that they are talented and they have potential, so just believing in your team and believing in people you work with. And if you raise the bar higher and if you give the team an opportunity, most people stand up to the challenge. And you might be surprised what they will be able to achieve.\nGary: That\u2019s great. That\u2019s great. Last question, and kind of a flyer. So you scaled Mount Everest to raise money for Refugees International, which I find very inspiring, personally. So tell us about Refugees International and why you chose to support that organization.\nElena: Sure. So I was very proud of that too, so thank you for bringing that up. As I saw the rising social tensions on the global scale and also in our country, I thought, what is it that I can do to contribute to the cause and to show the executives that if they, as business leaders, stand up for the causes they believe in, it does have an impact, it does inspire others, it inspires their team, it inspires their colleagues, it inspires their industry peers.\nSo I chose a cause that I\u2019m personally passionate about, which is immigration. And I chose an organization that I think is performing lifesaving work and missions, Refugees International. So I hiked Mount Everest region up to 18,300 feet.\nGary: That\u2019s amazing.\nElena: Until I was ready to die. And everything I raised I donated to Refugees International. And I did one more similar challenge this winter, summiting Mount Aconcagua, which is the tallest mountain in South and North America in our hemisphere.\nGary: Wow.\nElena: And again, donating all the proceedings to Refugees International. And my intention is to continue contributing to the cause in various ways. And I did see that my colleagues or my industry peers saw an opportunity, and they thought, you know, if I\u2019m not a mountaineer but I was able to do that to show my support for the cause, they were or they became bolder in expressing their own beliefs and becoming more vulnerable. So hopefully, more of us can find a way to contribute, and more of us can support the causes they believe in.\nGary: Yeah, well, hugely inspirational. And at a little bit of personal cost this time too, because I understand on the way down, you broke your leg.\nElena: Yes. I was caught in a snowstorm on the way down. So unfortunately, I fell. But you know, Gary, what I learned in this experience is that whoever does not risk does not summit. I intend to bring that lesson to my professional life.\nGary: Absolutely. It\u2019s just so inspiring. And you\u2019re right: When you make an example like that, other people learn from you directly. And hopefully, they\u2019ll emulate that. So thanks for doing that. It\u2019s really awesome.\nElena: Yeah. Thank you, Gary.\nGary: It\u2019s been a fun chat. Appreciate your time.\nElena: Thank you so much.\nGary: This has been a Silver Bullet Security Podcast with Gary McGraw.

        "raw_content": "Fifa 13 online pressures discussed by EA\nAnd how seriously server issues are taken\nFifa 13 - with great power comes great responsibility\nEA Sports' Mike McCabe has told TechRadar about the pressures behind the best-selling Fifa franchise, and the sheer amount of work involved in creating a game that remains popular for its entire life-cycle.\nFifa 13 launched last week to great reviews and with a host of new features designed to extend play time and make the game a 'stickier experience.\nTechRadar caught up with McCabe head of emerging markets and new platforms for Fifa and one of the key figures in the franchise, to ask about the difficulties in launching an annual game, and making it resonate with its massive fan base.\n\"It's important for us to make that game relevant for a much longer period of time and that's changed in the way in which we create content on console games as well,\" said McCabe in a wide-ranging interview that we will be publishing in full in the coming days.\n\"We used to make the game, print the disc and then all go on holiday for three weeks because there was nothing else you can do but that's changed dramatically now.\n\"We still have that team who are making the game but based on the fact that the systems are live and we can now patch things and we could never do that before.\n\"We can patch things that are broken and, because the games are so complicated there is always going to be little things that we miss or little ways that people play that we can patch.\n\"Also, the live services team are a new phenomenon for us and within Fifa we have a Fifa live team who are spread around the world and are creating content continually.\n\"So you have the daily challenge for instance...and that's just the beginning. Within the console product we have Fifa Ultimate Team in which the individual player stats are based on real performance to the point that, within the product this year, we have live match mode where ultimately the actual real world performance is reflected within the game.\"\n\"Recently [Wayne] Rooney was taken out for a period - he's just back now and we had the move of [Robin] van Persie to deal with as well,\" he added.\n\"The demo was locked before the game was released but the communities were fairly vocal that he should be at Manchester United but we hadn't built that in so the users expect that now.\"\nThe need for live services clearly adds a new dimension to building the game and McCabe confesses that it brings new problems.\n\"It does [add pressure] but we have a responsibility and there is a responsibility to quality and as any group who are passionate about their product we want to make it the best that we possibly can.\"\nEA has, yet again, come in for criticism from the likes of the BBC's Watchdog programme for the performance of its servers in the frantic few weeks after launch.\nAlthough the programme aired after TechRadar's interview, McCabe had discussed how seriously the team took problems with the online services.\n\"We don't get it right every time but what we can do is monitor closely what is going on with things like the Twitter feeds,\" he told us.\n\"We know if something has gone wrong with the game very quickly. In fact if something goes wrong with, say, a server we hear it in the office because we can hear the feed beeps.\n\"Normally that's about once every half a second within the social teams and you can watch it with the screens running. If something goes wrong you hear it beeping even more constantly and you know that something is wrong.\n\"That kind of tool enables us to monitor sentiment within the audience and be able to react as quickly as possible.\n\"We want to try and fix things as quickly as possible - but servers go down and the fact that the games are much more sophisticated now than they have ever been previously means that we have redundancy, double redundancy and all sorts of things to make it as robust as possible.\"",

        "raw_content": "By Shawn Knight on July 1, 2014, 6:15 9 comments\nOuya recently launched an All-Access Pass in which buyers can gain access to more than 800 titles for the price of a typical console game. The package will let gamers play any qualifying title for the next 12 months but if you want in, you'd better act fast.\nAccording to a statement on the matter received by Polygon, the All-Access pass is a pilot subscription program being offered to new and existing Ouya users for a limited time only. It's just one of the many things the company is exploring to give players the best value and developers the best visibility.\nThe $59.99 pass, the price of a typical console game, is a non-refundable one-time payment. Once a customer buys and redeems the code, all content included in the bundle will show up as $0.00 in the Ouya game shop.\nIt's worth pointing out that the offer only applies to titles and add-on content under $30 in value. It does not cover in-game purchases that enhance gameplay or content that can be purchased multiple times like power-ups or extra lives.\nThe All-Access Pass won't have any impact on how developers get paid. For example, if a subscriber \"buys\" a game, the developer will still get their 70 percent cut on the original cost of the title. Ouya added that they reserve the right to disqualify any game or customers that they feel is abusing the system in any way.\nOuya said results of the test will determine if / how they proceed with an official subscription program.",

She was asked to appear on the conservative news station after penning a viral piece about Trump gaslighting America, but instead of an interview, she was subjected to a sexist, misogynistic tirade from Tucker Carlson, in which he undermined her intelligence, belittled her work as a journalist, and told her to \"stick to thigh-high boots.\"\nThe experience was maddening, to say the very least, but Lauren got the last laugh. She started Thigh-High Politics, her brilliant weekly op-ed column for Teen Vogue that educates readers on what's happening in the news and provides resources for the resistance. Since its birth, her column has garnered the attention of high-profile politicians and journalists, as well as amazing feedback from young adults all over the world. On the heels of that success, Lauren is collaborating with The Outrage, a progressive apparel brand that seeks to empower all women and clap back at Trump's toxic rhetoric.\nhttps://twitter.com/laurenduca/status/885565722537201665\nThe line includes a tank top emblazoned with Lauren's infamous slogan, \"I Like My Politics Thigh-High,\" as well as a tote bag and your classic white tee option. The best part? One hundred percent of its proceeds go straight to our dear friends at Planned Parenthood \u2014 and in Tucker Carlson's name, no less.\nTo show your support, stand for PP, and smash the patriarchy, go grab yourself some gear before it's gone.\nRelated: Lauren Duca Shares What She Wishes She'd Heard on Her Own Graduation Day",

        "raw_content": "Like Robert de Niro, any parent might fall for the MMR vaccination conspiracy\nRobert de Niro: believes there is a link between the MMR vaccine and autism Credit: Kin Cheung/AP Photo\nTwo of the most irritating phenomena of modern life \u2013 conspiracy theorists and actors with opinions \u2013 reached a sort of mutual apotheosis this week, when Robert De Niro claimed that the MMR vaccine can cause autism. \u201cI\u2019m not a scientist,\u201d he conceded modestly, \u201cbut I know because I\u2019ve seen so much reaction. Let\u2019s just find out the truth.\u201d\nOK, let\u2019s. But first, let\u2019s hear the man out. De Niro has an 18-year-old son, Elliot, with autism. His wife believes that Elliot changed immediately after having the MMR jab, which is why \u2013 despite reluctantly agreeing to pull it from his Tribeca film festival \u2013 De Niro has been promoting a controversial new \u201cdocumentary\u201d on the subject.\nVaxxed is directed by Andrew Wakefield, the disgraced British doctor who first drew a link between autism and the combined vaccination for measles, mumps and rubella. Wakefield\u2019s 1998 study was later found to be fraudulent, and he has been barred from practising medicine in the UK. He now skulks about in America, where his message \u2013 don\u2019t let the government trick you into poisoning your kids \u2013 plays well with both the paranoid libertarian Right and the detoxed, kale-weaving Left.\nAs a result, measles \u2013 which in 2000 had been declared \u201celiminated\u201d in the US \u2013 is now staging a comeback. In a single outbreak last year \u2013 traced back to one infected visitor at Disneyland, California \u2013 183 people contracted the disease, which can cause blindness, miscarriage and even death.\n\u201cThe truth is, a diagnosis of autism is almost always accompanied by sadness, fear and regret at what might have been\u201d\nWakefield\u2019s lie has become a sort of epidemic in itself: highly infectious, and almost impossible to stamp out. God knows, plenty of scientists have tried: 15 different studies have been conducted since 1998, involving thousands of children, and each found conclusively that the MMR vaccine did not cause autism. But even this is not enough to satisfy the doubters. As De Niro puts it: \u201cThere are many people who say, 'No. I saw my kids change, like, overnight. I saw what happened and I shouldn\u2019t have done something and I did.\u2019\u2009\u201d\nAnd here I find myself abruptly softened by sympathy. What De Niro is really expressing is guilt. All parents feel it, all of the time . But when disaster strikes, guilt is not just an idle habit: it\u2019s a survival mechanism.\nI have seen how it works at first hand. One of my nephews died of cot death at three months old; another was brain-damaged at birth and is now severely autistic. For my sister, both have been experiences of acute loss. And one way to manage loss is through guilt. Believing that you could have averted catastrophe if only you\u2019d acted differently is an attempt to take back control. It feels less frightening than the truth, which is that sometimes awful things happen to people who\u2019ve done nothing to deserve it.\nDeath and autism are not, of course, equivalent. These days, indeed, we are encouraged to see disabled children as a blessing \u2013 or, at most, a challenge to be met. But the truth is, a diagnosis of autism is almost always accompanied by sadness, fear and regret at what might have been.\nThe MMR theory taps straight into that vein of parental distress. It allows parents to blame both themselves and a malign external force. It provides an explanation \u2013 albeit false \u2013 for what otherwise seems an unbearably random injustice. This is the cruellest thing about Wakefield\u2019s lie: it spreads disease by feeding off grief.",

        "raw_content": "Possessive adj and the genitive case of personal pron\nPost by lgsoltek \u00bb Wed May 27, 2009 3:50 pm\nGreetings to everyone. I learned the personal pronouns today (D'Ooge) (page 123), which makes me wonder:\nwhat is the difference between possessive adjectives and the genitive case of personal pronouns?\nFor example, the gen. case of \"ego\" is \"mei\". How is it different from \"meus, mea, meum\"? The first means \"of me\", the latter means \"my\", so don't they mean the same thing?\nRe: Possessive adj and the genitive case of personal pron\nPost by modus.irrealis \u00bb Wed May 27, 2009 4:28 pm\nI'd say that it's roughly like the situation in English, where \"of me\" and \"my\" could be said to mean the same thing, but they're definitely used in different constructions (you don't normally say \"the house of me\" for \"my house\"). \"Meus\" is more common as it's used for possession but you'd use \"mei\" e.g. where a verb requires a genitive, like with \"mei memineris\" = \"you will remember me\".\nPost by lgsoltek \u00bb Thu May 28, 2009 12:16 pm\nHm hum, it's clearer to me now, thanks a lot!",

        "raw_content": "Ancient Irish\nThe genomes of a 5,200-year-old woman and three 4,000-year-old men yield clues about the founding of Celtic populations.\nSatellite view of IrelandFLICKR, NASA GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTERHumans likely migrated to the British Isles in at least two large movements, from the Middle East and then eastern Europe, according to an ancient-DNA sequencing study published this week (December 28) in PNAS. The timing of these mass migrations coincide with technological advances, including agricultural and metallurgy, suggesting that the immigrants brought these skills with them to the Isles.\nThese insights come from the genomes of a 5,200-year-old female farmer from the Neolithic period, found near Belfast, and three 4,000-year-old men from the Bronze Age. The woman\u2019s genome suggested that she had descended from people of the Middle East, the birthplace of agriculture. The males, found on Rathlin Island, came from what is now part of Russia and Ukraine.\n\u201cThere was a great wave of genome change that swept into [Bronze Age] Europe from above the Black Sea,\u201d study leader Dan Bradley, a geneticist at Trinity College Dublin, told BBC News. \u201cWe now know it washed all the way to the shores of its most westerly island. This degree of genetic change invites the possibility of other associated changes, perhaps even the introduction of language ancestral to western Celtic tongues.\u201d\nThe Neolithic woman was most closely related to modern Spanish and Sardinians, while the Rathlin men were genetically similar to modern Irish, Scottish, and Welsh. How genomes changed from the Bronze Age to 21st century will be a topic of future study. \u201cOur snapshot of the past occurs early, around the time of establishment of these regional populations, before much of the divergence takes place,\u201d Bradley told BBC News. \u201cI think that the data do show that the Bronze Age was a major event in establishment of the insular Celtic genomes but we cannot rule out subsequent (presumably less important) population events contributing until we sample later genomes also.\u201d",

        "title": "Need Cash Fast? Ask Reddit - The Atlantic",
        "raw_content": "Need Cash Fast? Ask Reddit\nA subsection of the link-sharing site is helping borrowers with bad credit get emergency loans.\nGustav CappaertChris Lewis\nJeff Keacher / Flickr / nimon / Shutterstock / Zak Bickel / The Atlantic\nWhen asked if they\u2019d be able to cover a $400 emergency expense, Neal Gabler\u2019s recent Atlantic cover story noted, nearly half of all respondents to a 2014 Federal Reserve study said that they wouldn\u2019t have enough cash on hand.\nSo how would they scrape the money together? Most told the Fed they would try for a bank loan, use a credit card, or make a potentially embarrassing request to family and friends. Two percent of respondents said they would take out a payday loan.\nTo avoid this suite of unattractive choices, some borrowers are asking strangers for money on Reddit instead. Since 2011, a section of the site, r/borrow (and its predecessor, r/loans), has matched users looking for quick credit with lenders willing to put up cash. Most loans on r/borrow charge very high interest rates\u2014usually between 10 and 25 percent, to be paid back over weeks or months. Per data collected by one r/borrow user, the subreddit facilitated 3,473 loans totaling over $780,000 in 2015. According to a moderator of the subreddit, r/borrow users, like Redditors at large, skew young, white, and male. Loans tend to range from $100 to a few thousand dollars, and cover the gamut of emergency financial needs, including car repairs, debt consolidation, medical bills, or unexpected travel costs.\nRelatively speaking, these aren\u2019t huge numbers\u2014the consumer-credit market handles trillions of dollars each year\u2014but they do highlight the ways in which traditional lending options can fail to give some people what they need. \u201cIt\u2019s not surprising that borrowers are looking for alternative ways of getting access to credit,\u201d says Paul Leonard, the former director of the California office of the Center for Responsible Lending.\nWhen Americans need money, they often turn first to banks for a loan, but their options there are only as good as their credit. If their credit score\u2014a figure that can be calculated incorrectly and yet is often taken as the sole indicator of a prospective borrower\u2019s reliability\u2014is low, they often turn to loans with much higher interest rates. Take Justin O\u2019Dell, a cable technician living in Dexter, Michigan. He says his mother took out several credit cards in his name while he was in college and racked up about $40,000 in debt. \u201cMy choices were to press charges for credit fraud or eat the debt,\u201d he said. \u201cI ate the debt.\u201d No longer able to get student loans, O\u2019Dell was forced to drop out of college.\nWhen O\u2019Dell later needed some cash to pay his cellphone bill after his wife lost her job, he briefly considered a payday loan\u2014an extremely high-interest alternative that is known to catch consumers in cycles of debt and is mostly unregulated in 32 states. (Payday loans are not equal-opportunity debt traps, either: \u201cThere is some evidence that lenders have concentrated themselves in communities of color,\u201d said Joe Valenti, the director of consumer finance for the Center for American Progress.) But after deciding against that option, and against the embarrassment of asking his father, O\u2019Dell ultimately opted for the comfortable distance of a Reddit loan. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to walk back to dad with your tail between your legs and ask for help,\u201d he said. Now, he turns to Reddit when surprise expenses arise.\nOn r/borrow, loans are being granted to the tune of $20,000 per week, according to user-collected data, and part of the platform\u2019s success lies in its anti-establishment appeal. Lenders and borrowers alike are fond of the way that r/borrow takes lending out of a cold, institutional paradigm. O\u2019Dell compared it to other personal-giving subreddits, such as r/secretsanta and the \u201cRandom Acts Of\u201d forums, where users gift strangers with pizza, books, crafts, and even sex. \u201cThe nice thing about it is that you\u2019re dealing with another person,\u201d he said.\n(Naturally, there are a few silly loans given out on r/borrow. In February, one user asked for a $20 no-interest loan to pay for a pizza that would feed him for a few busy days. As the loan was negotiated, commenters harangued the requester for not choosing more budget-friendly meals. Still, the loan was funded.)\nA small group of r/borrow lenders make a majority of the page\u2019s loans, and often earn significant profits. Kevin, a San Francisco software engineer who asked to be identified by first name only, says he has made around 400 loans totaling $100,000\u2014he says he earns about $3,000 a month from r/borrow. Kevin said that he\u2019s mostly in it for the money, but his longstanding interest in Internet communities has shaped his participation as well. \u201cAs a teenager in the 2000s, I grew up participating in tight-knit internet forums and made lifelong relationships with strangers I only knew as a nickname online,\u201d he said in an email.\nBut one reason why r/borrow\u2019s loans come with such high interest rates\u2014which in turn explain why users like Kevin can profit so handsomely\u2014is that the subreddit has no legally binding enforcement mechanism. No contracts are signed, no collateral is requested, and no credit reports are pulled. Any Reddit user with an account three months old and a modest posting history is considered more or less eligible for a loan.\nThe primary consequence for failing to repay is an unsightly red post tagged \u201cUNPAID,\u201d which is recorded by LoansBot, a script that stores users\u2019 lending history. In other words, borrowers have an opportunity to take lenders for a ride at the risk of little more than not being able to borrow on Reddit again. Lenders have little recourse\u2014it\u2019s difficult to break someone\u2019s kneecaps over the Internet, and there is no evidence that any r/borrow lender has used threats to collect an unpaid debt.) And yet, the system mostly works. Of the roughly 60 percent of loan requests that are funded, 70 percent are repaid. By comparison, a 2015 study by the Center for Responsible Lending found that 46 percent of payday-loan borrowers default within two years of their first loan.\nIn order to protect their investment, lenders sometimes ask first-time borrowers for a link to their Facebook profile and a photo of themselves holding a form of ID (sometimes while striking a unique pose, a tactic that helps keep scammers at bay). A Reddit comment history is also important. One moderator, who asked not to be named because he didn\u2019t want his activity on r/borrow to be associated with his marketing business, told us that users who post on drug-related subreddits, for example, are less likely to get loans. \u201cDifferent lenders have different criteria, but almost everyone looks at your Reddit history,\u201d said Kevin, the software engineer.\nTavares Allen, a civil engineer living near Pittsburgh who has taken out loans 25 times using r/borrow, posts frequently to Reddit forums on cooking, music, and baseball. \u201cTeemunney has been my username for everything on the Internet,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t want to delete it and come up with another.\u201d He added, \u201cI can\u2019t take [money] and run,\u201d he said. Allen has repaid every Reddit loan promptly, and says that now, when he makes a post requesting a loan, he gets multiple responses in minutes. \u201cIf my credit score were based solely on my Reddit post history, my score would be over 800,\u201d Allen said.\nr/borrow depends on 10 somewhat overworked volunteer moderators, who are tasked with identifying scammers and predatory lenders, enforcing posting protocol, and maintaining LoansBot. The moderators\u2019 oversight is important, but they can only do so much to ensure loans are paid back. The moderator we talked to said that he has banned some \u201cnakedly predatory\u201d lenders, who were demanding interest payments that exceeded 100 percent.\nIf a loan falls through, it\u2019s often difficult for lenders to recoup their loss. Some r/borrow lenders have been known to contact a borrower\u2019s friends and family through Facebook. In some cases the relatives of users who default on a loan have wound up repaying on their behalf.\nr/borrow isn\u2019t the only option that has sprung up as an alternative to the usual ways of getting money on short notice. LendingClub and Prosper are two bigger-name startups that link individual borrowers with individual lenders, though not as directly as on r/borrow (and they take a cut of the money exchanged). There\u2019s also Puddle, a platform in which groups of users pay into a fund that they can borrow from when they need a cash boost, and Oportun, which is accessible from inside Latino supermarkets in California, Texas, and Illinois, and offers payday-style loans, but with longer repayment terms. And the city of San Francisco runs Payday Plus SF, which partners with local credit unions to provide short-term credit at lower interest rates than many payday loans.\n\u201cOur best users have credit scores under 650,\u201d said Skylar Woodward, the CEO of Puddle and a co-founder of the microfinance group Kiva. \u201cPeople who the current system says are untrustworthy or high-risk actually are repaying at over 95 percent.\u201d\nWhile r/borrow and even these full-fledged companies remain on the fringes of consumer lending, the notion of directly matching individual borrowers and lenders could transform the financial industry in time. Today, the intermediary between borrowers and lenders is most often a bank, and banks, in exchange for providing this service, take a cut amounting to more than $1.5 trillion per year. So, one of the promises of peer-to-peer lending, on a larger scale, is that it could greatly reduce banks\u2019 roles as intermediaries, and pass on the savings to borrowers and lenders alike.\nWhile banks still remain the public\u2019s (and the government\u2019s) favored lenders, these new peer-to-peer companies and initiatives, for the most part, have the implicit or explicit approval of regulators. According to Lauren Saunders, the associate director of the National Consumer Law Center, the Federal Trade Commission has general authority to regulate unfair or deceptive lending practices, and for lenders making more than 25 loans in a calendar year, so does the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is in the process of developing a new set of regulations requiring that payday lenders, among other things, evaluate borrowers\u2019 ability to repay loans. Anyone making more than 25 loans a year is also required to disclose the loans\u2019 interest rates, according to the federal Truth In Lending Act.\nIn 2008, Prosper and Lending Club both briefly shut down (Prosper did so because of a government cease-and-desist order) in order to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission, but the legality of an informal lending network like r/borrow has never been tested. \u201cIf this is a large and thriving marketplace, at some point it seems as though it would run afoul of at least state, if not federal, regulations,\u201d said Leonard, formerly of the Center for Responsible Lending. \u201cThere\u2019s a whole set of laws and regulations around the collecting of debts, and what you\u2019re allowed to do, what you\u2019re not allowed to do, how you\u2019re allowed to contact people.\u201d For example, while the r/borrow rules page tells lenders to abide by state-level interest-rate caps, this rule is not stringently enforced.\nIt\u2019s not clear what this means for the future of r/borrow. But emergency lending, even if it were perfected, would remain the symptom of a bigger problem. \u201cSome of the challenges that people are facing involve looking to credit when credit is not really the answer,\u201d Valenti, of the Center for American Progress, said. In addition to holes in the social safety net and health-care system, \u201csome of it can be traced to the minimum wage not being sufficient and not keeping up with costs for folks,\u201d he said. So, for the time being, despite high interest rates and an absence of official protections, a small set of borrowers see an ad-hoc Reddit network as their best option for emergency cash. \u201cIt\u2019s interesting, and a little bit troubling, that people are heading in this direction,\u201d Valenti said.\nGustav Cappaert is a writer based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.\nChris Lewis is a freelance journalist based in Detroit.

        "title": "The Shadow Behind \u2018Spotlight\u2019: How Predator Priests Derailed Boston\u2019s Would-Be Pope, Cardinal Bernard Law",
        "raw_content": "The Shadow Behind \u2018Spotlight\u2019: How Predator Priests Derailed Boston\u2019s Would-Be Pope, Cardinal Bernard Law\nThe shadow villain of Spotlight, Bernard Law was one of America\u2019s most ambitious and prominent cardinals\u2014until his handling of the sex-abuse scandal caught up with him.\nSpotlight is a gripping new film by Tom McCarthy on The Boston Globe\u2019s investigation of how that archdiocese concealed child-molester priests. Set in 2001, the film serves as backstory to the Pulitzer Prize-winning series that began on Jan. 6, 2002\u2014\u201cFeast of the Epiphany,\u201d as we learn in the intelligent script by McCarthy and Josh Singer.\nTaking on the church in heavily Catholic Boston was no small order. Several of the reporters came from Catholic homes. Marty Baron, the Globe\u2019s new editor, by way of The Miami Herald, suggested the investigation after reading a Globe columnist on a priest abuse case. Baron wanted to know more; he later became editor of The Washington Post.\nPlayed by the bearded Liev Schreiber, Baron presents as a shy man, of few but forceful words, an outsider to tribal Boston, and a Jew, as a Catholic businessman says, sotto voce, to Michael Keaton in his edgy, pensive portrayal of Spotlight editor Walter \u201cRobby\u201d Robinson.\nRobinson\u2019s clutch of reporters worked months before the first article appeared, finding documents and tracking down victims of some 30 priests. The turning point in 2001 came when a court ruling against the church unsealed lawsuits that put clergy personnel documents into the public record. The Globe ultimately reported that the archdiocese had sheltered 249 predatory clerics going back several decades.\nThe Globe unmasked Cardinal Bernard Law, then Boston\u2019s Archbishop, for shielding predators; he made Newsweek\u2019s cover in March 2002. Spotlight ends two months before that, just as the newspaper series begins. A line onscreen at the end of the film says that Law resigned as archbishop in December 2002, and later became pastor in Rome of a historic basilica, Santa Maria Maggiore (note to reader: at a salary of $12,000 a month, according to The New York Times).\nLaw left Boston a figure of ridicule and disgrace, yet still a Prince of the Church, as cardinals are called. He has never given an interview in the 13 years since then. In researching a 2011 book on Vatican finances, and more recent reporting trips to Rome, I pieced together a picture of the cardinal in winter (he turns 84 next month) as he rebuilt a power base. His story echoes the wisdom of Heraclitus: character is fate.\nThe Globe series ignited a chain reaction of reports at the networks and daily newsrooms, not least at The New York Times, which owned the Globe then and competed hard on investigations of its own. For the church, the earthquake convulsed well into 2004; the impact continued on for years, as dioceses and religious orders settled thousands of victim lawsuits.\nEarly into Spotlight, Baron pays a courtesy call on Cardinal Law, played by a silver-haired Len Cariou with a suave patrician gravitas, saying that as a young monsignor in Mississippi in the 1960s, \u201cI was close to the Evers brothers,\u201d and that he wrote for the Jackson diocesan paper. In a dash of hubris the cardinal suggests common cause in a healthy press, and then gives editor Baron a copy of the thick Catholic Catechism. Schrieber\u2019s facial twist registers irony as he takes the book, knowing that news will come of rules long broken by the church.\nI let out an audible mmmm at that moment in the screening; my wife whispered, \u201cIs something wrong?\u201d I shook my head, no, thinking of Law: All that promise\u2026\nGlobe reporters interviewed me in late 2001 and several times in 2002 because of a work I published in 1992\u2014Lead Us Not Into Temptation, the first book to investigate the nationwide crisis of priest sex abuse. (The book actually has a cameo in the film; a survivor activist shows his copy to Spotlight reporters with other material he urges them to read.) The Globe reviewed the book favorably in 1992 during heavy national coverage of an ex-priest, James Porter, who left a trail of agony in Massachusetts towns going back many years, before taking a plea bargain and 20-year sentence for child sexual abuse. He died in prison six years later.\nCardinal Law was irate over the Porter coverage, blustering at one point, \u201cWe call down God\u2019s power on the media, especially the Globe.\u201d\nThe book took seven years, with endless photocopying and FedEx bills\u2014this was pre-Internet\u2014to obtain legal documents on far-flung bishops shielding sex offenders. But I was unable to get documents from New York, Boston, and Los Angeles: Church lawyers had a tight lid on cases. Other attorneys assumed that the victims took settlements in exchange for silence. Nine years later, Boston survivors came forth, with wrenching personal stories, after Judge Constance Sweeney, a Catholic, ruled that press freedom trumped church secrecy, unsealing lawsuits and giving victims the right to speak. The scene is a key moment in Spotlight.\nCardinal Law, the reporters\u2019 ultimate target, is not a major character in the film; Baron tells his reporters to go after \u201cthe system,\u201d not the man, though it goes unspoken that Law was the system.\nI met Bernie Law, as priests in Mississippi called him, in Jackson, the state capitol, in the summer of 1971 while working as press secretary in Charles Evers\u2019s quixotic campaign for governor. A week after graduation from Georgetown, I arrived as a volunteer, wrote a press release when they needed one, and got hired for $75 a week.\nLaw was vicar-general, the bishop\u2019s top assistant. Evers, whose brother Medgar had been assassinated in 1963, respected Law for his editorials in the Catholic paper urging tolerance during the violent years. In a heavily Baptist state prone to racial demagogues, Law had been on the right side of history. By 1971 the riots and Klan violence had abated; but tensions were palpable, race relations still raw. I was curious about Law, and when I called, the monsignor invited me to dinner. When I parked my dented VW in the chancery parking lot, he said, \u201cLet\u2019s take my car.\u201d It was larger and more comfortable.\nHe was 40, plump but energetic, a Harvard graduate with early silver hair, a cool mind and warm wit. I liked him immediately. He sang praises of the Italian restaurant where he had a reservation.\nThe owner gave him a lavish hello, and scowled at me. \u201cSorry, Monsignor, we can\u2019t take him\u2014the hair is too long.\u201d Law frowned. I blushed. The hair stopped just shy of my shoulders, but this was Mississippi and the guy didn\u2019t like suspected hippies. Law protested, without yelling, to no avail. I knew it wasn\u2019t a moment to stand on constitutional rights and expect to eat lasagna.\nLaw was mortified as he drove to another restaurant, telling me somberly that backwards Mississippi really had made important strides. At dinner he brightened; we talked national politics, theology, and church changes since Vatican II.\nAs we left the restaurant, Law said: \u201cHow\u2019d you like to meet the bishop?\u201d\nSure. Joseph Brunini, the bishop of Jackson, came from a family with a prominent law firm; he too had been a voice of moderation in the dark years. The bishop, 52, had a condo outside Jackson at the vast Ross Barnett Reservoir where people with sailboats had slips.\nBarnett was the former governor known for inflammatory speeches and standing in the doorway at the University of Mississippi in 1962 to block James Meredith as the first black student. Meredith was escorted in by white federal marshals. \u201cWhich of you is James Meredith?\u201d said Barnett to the only black man in eyesight. The campus soon exploded in a riot that left two people dead as federal troops secured Meredith\u2019s place. The state named the big lake for the worst governor Mississippi ever had.\nWe sat on the deck of the condo, sipping Scotch as the insects sang outside. Brunini was an amiable man, a Georgetown graduate curious about my time there, the three of us trading thoughts about race relations and the church. I realized that Mississippi\u2019s Catholic community amounted to a minority religion, a tiny social presence, quite different from the New Orleans of my upbringing. Brunini wished me well and made a point of blessing me as we left.\nAs Law and I drove back to the chancery, his demeanor changed. He was smiling, a man on a cloud. \u201cDid you like the bishop?\u201d he said. Yes, a very nice man. \u201cDid you think he was\u2014cool?\u201d Uh, sure.\nThis man wants to be a bishop, I reported to myself with the brilliance of a 22-year old. As we pulled up to my car, he stuck out his hand. \u201cCall me Bernie.\u201d\nCampaign work intensified; he made a trip to Rome and I didn\u2019t see him again; we chatted a few times by phone.\nAs the years passed I followed news on him. He became a bishop in Missouri, and several years later, in 1984, vaulted to Boston, as archbishop, and soon a cardinal. I\u2019ve known journalists to fume over people they wished they\u2019d kept up with. I soon felt that about Law, wishing I\u2019d sent notes, Christmas cards, anything to cultivate a relationship. The regret hit me in the mid-\u201980s as I reported on the prosecution of a pedophile priest in Lafayette, Louisiana. In a circuitous way, those events led to Law.\nIn January of 1986, the weekly Times of Acadiana ran my final piece, reconstructing how Bishop Gerard Frey had played musical chairs with seven priests who had abused children over several years. The paper ran an editorial calling for the Vatican to remove the bishop, for which it got hit with an advertisers\u2019 boycott fomented by a retired judge, Edmund Reggie, and a prominent monsignor. The paper lost $20,000 before cooler heads prevailed. In July, the Vatican sent a new bishop.\nIn February of that year I shifted to work on the book, and flew to Washington, D.C., to interview Father Tom Doyle, a canon lawyer at the Vatican Embassy. Doyle, I learned, sent a shot across the bow as co-author of a 100-page report in the spring of 1985 on the pedophile cases before it became a crisis. The document went to every bishop in America. A classic whistleblower, Doyle lost his job; he became an Air Force chaplain.\nDoyle told me how he had given Cardinal Law a briefing on abuse cases in various states in 1984 before his work on the report. Law supported Doyle in the effort; he even contributed $1,000 to cover photocopy costs so the document could be sent to 150 bishops. Many years later, Law testified in a deposition in one of the Boston cases and said he could not recall details of that 1985 report, which became a \u201csmoking gun\u201d for advising bishops to remove predators and reach out to victims. Many bishops opted to recycle perpetrators after stints in psychiatric treatment facilities, and ignore victims until they filed lawsuits.\nThe next time I saw Law was 1993 in New Orleans where the bishops held their summer conference. Activists with the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests were staging a protest. Law stepped off an elevator at the Hyatt Regency and nearly collided with me. \u201cYour Eminence, it\u2019s been a long time since Mississippi. Would you have time to talk?\u201d\nHe shook his head grimly and moved on. I noticed he was much heavier.\nIn 1998, the artist Channing Thieme was preparing an exhibition called \u201cBoston Faces,\u201d portraits of a cross-section of Bostonians. She was not a Catholic, curious about a man as powerful as Law, and delighted when he agreed to sit for her at the cardinal\u2019s mansion in Brighton. She found him a charming conversationalist in two drawing sessions. When she returned with the finished graphite portrait, Law was delighted. She said: \u201cWhat\u2019s the toughest part of your job?\u201d\n\u201cJudgment\u2014the decisions I must make,\u201d Law replied. And, as if looking ahead to a bitter reckoning, he added: \u201cThat is the half of it. The other half is the judgment I must one day face myself.\u201d\nShe was amazed at the statement. The words do not ring of false modesty.\nLaw in 1998 was the most powerful American churchman in Rome. Close to Pope John Paul and Cardinal Angelo Sodano, the Secretary of State, Law cultivated ties in the Roman Curia and served on major Vatican committees. Yet that artist\u2019s question, as he gazed at his black-and-white image, seemingly unloosed an inner coil. He apparently felt guilty about something. Could it have been the scores of pedophiles he had sent to treatment tanks, some of them recycled, with little thought of their ravaged victims?\nPower is the movement of money. The out-of-court settlements Law had approved, predicated on victims\u2019 silence, put the survivors out of sight, out of mind.\nJudgment stalked him in civil depositions as the media coverage wore on; reporters used his testimony to shatter the credibility of the man who had urged John Paul II to authorize the updated, very long Catholic Catechism, the one that the cardinal in the movie gives to the editor with his quiet, quizzical face.\nLaw resigned just before Christmas 2002, after a private meeting with Pope John Paul II in Rome; he left Boston for sanctuary in a Maryland convent with nuns. Imagine the psychological blow to a man who had once told friends that he hoped to be the first American pope, a man whose support of migrants from the Dominican Republic entering Boston stood for the values of a church giving comfort and succor to the poor.\nNixon sought redemption after Watergate by writing books and holding dinners for selected journalists, a careful campaign to rehabilitate himself as a foreign policy sage.\nLaw turned to the one place where he had support\u2014cardinals and bishops in the Roman Curia, the Vatican bureaucracy. \u201cThe curia is a brotherhood,\u201d Cardinal Sodano once told The New York Times. Law had friends in the brotherhood after 17 years in Boston. A member of the Congregation for Bishops, he helped select new American bishops.\nThe news of Law\u2019s new job in Rome in the spring of 2004 came at the worst possible time for his successor, Archbishop (later Cardinal) Se\u00e1n O\u2019Malley. O\u2019Malley had approved an $85 million settlement to 542 victims, only to take public criticism for a wave of church closures, consolidating parishes in a controversial plan to sell property after the huge deficit Law had left. O\u2019Malley had already sold the cardinal\u2019s mansion for $108 million to Boston College. All that, and John Paul rewarded Law with a cushy perch at one of Rome\u2019s great basilicas.\n\u201cMany people in Rome would say that he paid the price in the form of his resignation and that there\u2019s no reason that he shouldn\u2019t make a contribution,\u201d Vatican correspondent John L. Allen Jr. of the National Catholic Reporter told Boston Magazine two years after Law assumed his position. (Allen now writes for Crux, an online branch of the Globe that covers the Catholic Church.)\nAfter many years away from Mississippi, I went to Jackson in 2004 to promote a book, written with Gerald Renner. Vows of Silence: The Abuse of Power in the Papacy of John Paul II explores the Vatican\u2019s role in the abuse crisis. Before the evening lecture, I did several media interviews, and spent time with SNAP leaders Johnny Rainer and Kenneth Morrison.\nMorrison was 39, an artist in Chicago who had grown up in Jackson. He was one of three sons of a physician, by then deceased. His mother came to the book event. The family had moved to Jackson from Boston in 1969 when Kenneth\u2019s dad, Dr. Francis Morrison, an oncologist, took a teaching position at the state medical school. As Boston Catholics, the Morrisons found a friend in Bernie Law, the Harvard graduate. The Morrisons also befriended Father George Broussard who, as pedophiles will do, ingratiated himself with the family, slowly molesting the three young boys.\nAs we drove around Jackson that day, Kenneth, a strapping guy who did industrial art projects in Chicago, pointed to several church buildings where, he said, Broussard had forced sex on him as a boy of 5, 6, and 7 years old\u2014\u201cthere, in that one, and that one, and that one.\u201d As we drove past the chancery, his memories of being abused spilled into my thought field from 1971. The summer evening I pulled into the chancery parking lot to meet Bernie Law, matched the time period when little Kenneth was being preyed upon by Father Broussard nearby.\nMorrison sued the Jackson diocese in 2003. The diocese faced lawsuits against seven other priests, several dating back to Law\u2019s tenure there.\nLaw was the bishop\u2019s right hand when Dr. Morrison reported what Broussard had done to the chancery. As Morrison would later allege, Broussard began receiving \u201ctreatment,\u201d while staying at another parish. Law was close to the Morrisons, and to Broussard. Knowing what he knew, what should Law have done?\n\u201cThe sexual molestation of minors wasn\u2019t even on my radar screen,\u201d Law testified in a deposition in the Morrison case. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t the issue that it is today\u2026 it didn\u2019t come up.\u201d\nBut the diocese did investigate, as William Houck, who succeeded Brunini as bishop, stated under oath: \u201cBroussard said he subsequently admitted the accusations to Bernard Law and to Bishop (Joseph) Brunini, and attended confession with Bernard Law.\u201d\nLaw had moved to Rome when the Jackson diocese agreed to an out-of-court settlement with Kenneth Morrison.\nIn late 2012, I spent five weeks in Rome for GlobalPost, reporting on the Vatican investigation of liberal American nuns\u2014the Leadership Conference of Women Religious.\nCardinal Law was a catalyst in sparking that investigation, as I reported, though he played no direct role in the interrogations, meetings, and correspondence that the sisters had with Cardinal William Levada, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. The C.D.F. is housed in the majestic palazzo where in 1616 the Inquisition punished Galileo for his position that the Earth revolves around the sun.\nAfter leaving Boston in humiliation, Law found a fraternal womb in the Curia; but after the blows to his stature and ego, he wanted other people to \u201cface judgment\u201d\u2014an outsized projection of his own faults in the desire to bring those liberal nuns to heel. The man who suggested the new catechism wanted obedience to authority, of which he himself had little.\nLevada, it is worth adding, had been archbishop of San Francisco, and up to his chest in litigation over pedophile priests, when the newly elected Pope Benedict tossed him a ladder in 2005 as if from a celestial helicopter, lifting him up and away from the muck in the City by the Bay to beautiful Rome and great status as theologian-in-chief.\nLevada refused to be interviewed. I called Law, hoping against hope that he might agree to talk. A priest took the call at Santa Maria Maggiore, let his cold silence register for a number of seconds, and stated: \u201cThe cardinal does not give interviews. There are no exceptions.\u201d\nPope Francis would later oversee the termination of the proceedings against the nuns, and make a point of meeting with several of the leaders of American sisters for a reconciliation with news photographers present.\n\u201cLaw is a presence on the embassy social circuit,\u201d a Western diplomat in Rome told me in 2012. \u201cHe\u2019s a cardinal, an official of the Curia, so he\u2019s on the invitation lists. He\u2019s sociable and mingles easily.\u201d\nThe Holy See assumes a decorum among journalists who cover the Vatican. Many reporters who work in the press room off St. Peter\u2019s Square have broken stories critical of church officialdom\u2014Nicole Winfield of AP and Philip Pullella of Reuters prominent among them; but you don\u2019t see journalists in packs ambushing church officials as if they were Chicago or Louisiana politicians heading into criminal court. Pope Benedict was reeling from the Vati-Leaks scandal in late 2012 when I attended a reception for a group of newly invested cardinals.\nIt was a rare chance to get inside the Apostolic Palace, which is closed to the public save for ceremonial occasions. The large reception parlors have elegant tapestries adorning the walls. The papal apartments and pope\u2019s office on the top floor were off-limits. In one parlor a sizeable crowd of people who had come from Nigeria waited in a receiving line to greet their new cardinal, Archbishop John Onaiyekan of Abuja. Many of the Nigerian women wept as they hugged him. The rich colors of Yoruba design on the dresses and dashikis of men were emblazoned with the new cardinal\u2019s photograph. The vibrant festivity of the multicultural pageant in the life of the church reminded me of The Canterbury Tales.\nAcross the crowded Rome I saw the bloated, hulking figure of Cardinal Law, flanked by two priests, make his way past a receiving line toward two Italians in the red hat of cardinals. I moved that way, camera in hand. A priest at Law\u2019s elbow saw me and glared, stationing himself closer to the cardinal to prevent a clear angle. I stood there for several minutes, without shooting, and then turned away, thinking of Kenneth Morrison.\nA frequent Daily Beast contributor, Jason Berry\u2019s books include Render unto Rome: The Secret Life of Money in the Catholic Church, and Up From the Cradle of Jazz: New Orleans Music Since World War II.",

As you embark on whatever new chapter of your life lies before you, and as you close one of hard work, study groups, and rigorous preparation for standardized tests, questions of future success are undoubtedly on your mind.

The answer seems to be clear: zero.\nCommenting on the success trajectories of her subjects, Karen Arnold said, \u201cEven though most are strong occupational achievers, the great majority of former high school valedictorians do not appear headed for the very top of adult achievement arenas.\u201d In another interview Arnold said, \u201cValedictorians aren\u2019t likely to be the future\u2019s visionaries \u2026 they typically settle into the system instead of shaking it up.\u201d\nWas it just that these 81 didn\u2019t happen to reach the stratosphere? No. Research shows that what makes students likely to be impressive in the classroom is the same thing that makes them less likely to be home-run hitter outside the classroom.\nSchool has clear rules. Life often doesn\u2019t. When there\u2019s no clear path to follow, academic high achievers break down.\nShawn Achor\u2019s research at Harvard shows that college grades aren\u2019t any more predictive of subsequent life success than rolling dice. A study of over 700 American millionaires shows their average college GPA was 2.9.\nFollowing the rules doesn\u2019t create success; it just eliminates extremes\u2014both good and bad. While this is usually good and all but eliminates downside risk, it also frequently eliminates earthshaking accomplishments. It\u2019s like putting a governor on your engine that stops the car from going over 55; you\u2019re far less likely to get into a lethal crash, but you won\u2019t be setting any land speed records either.\nSo, the answer to your questions\u2014about success in the real world and how to reach it\u2014is simple: decide it for yourself. Follow your specific passions and master them. Channel the skill of hard work into learning and truly understanding whatever it is that sparks your curiosity. Your life and your success are your own. Seize them.\nEric Barker is the author of the just released Barking Up the Wrong Tree: The Surprising Science Behind Why Everything You Know About Success Is (Mostly) Wrong.

        "raw_content": "Puppy Thrown Off Roof In Viral Video Can't Stop Smiling Now\n\"Today, I am very, very happy to share that Bhadra is FAMILY.\"\nFacebook/Antony Rubin\nIn a disturbing video that made waves on social media back in July, a man held a 5-month-old dog by the scruff of her neck. He smiled at a camera - his accomplice recording the entire affair - and then threw her right off a very high roof. The dog cried out loud when she hit the ground. Then, two weeks later, she was found alive, barely able to walk, in Chennai, India.\nShe was terrified and shivering once she made it into the safe arms of her rescuers, but even so, the puppy, who was later named Bhadra, wagged her tail.\nBhadra with Shravan Krishnan, one of her rescuers Facebook/Shravan Krishnan\nBhadra was taken to Madras Veterinary College to recover from her injuries - not only was she in a state of shock, but she also suffered from fractures on her right hind leg and spine. Veterinarians said it would take up to two months for the puppy to fully recover - but they were hopeful.\nThat never ending Wagging tail \u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f https://t.co/gNLYUMvGb2\n\u2014 Karthik Dhandapani (@iamkarthikd)\nAfter Bhadra's story went viral, offers to adopt her came in from all over the world. She also became something of a local celebrity, with people visiting the home of one of the animal welfare advocates involved in her rescue, Shravan Krishnan, in the hopes of taking a photo with her. But Bhadra wasn't flown to the U.S. or anywhere else.\nInstead, she spent the rest of her recovery in a foster home in Ramapuram, a suburb in Chennai. Her caretaker, Karthik Dhandapani, had never owned a pet until he volunteered to take in Bhadra - because his mother, who lives with him, had never approved of them. But on Wednesday, Bhadra's rescuers announced that Dhandapani decided to keep Bhadra, who is now 7 months old, forever.\n\"Bhadra loves my mother's chapatis just as much as she loves chasing crows,\" Dhandapani told The New Indian Express. Bhadra also likes to play outside on Dhandapani's terrace several times a day.\n\"It has been a desire of six years ... coming from a family that has no connection to animals, being inspired to do something for them, turned an animal lover, spending time with them outside and not able to have one at home,\" Dhandapani wrote on Facebook. \"But today, I am very, very happy to share that Bhadra is FAMILY ... She came home as a foster after she was found thrown off by the two medical students, and since then started ruling our hearts like she did the world.\"\nFacebook/Karthik Dhandapani\nThe two men responsible for Bhadra's fall - both college students - have three three counts of animal abuse pending in court, and have already paid a penalty fine to the Animal Welfare Board of India.\nIndia has the highest number of stray dogs roaming the streets in the world.

        "raw_content": "Hamilton Township Education Association President David Perry discusses protocols for covering up abuse by teachers, in a hidden camera video on March 27 from Project Veritas, which specializes in undercover reporting. (Project Veritas)\nUndercover Video Shows Corruption in New Jersey Teachers Union\nA teachers union in New Jersey may be covering up crimes committed by teachers against middle school students.\nIn the first of an upcoming series of videos to be released by Project Veritas, which specializes in undercover journalism, the president of the Hamilton Township Education Association, David Perry, explains protocols to protect teachers who have physically abused or threatened children, and states he is \u201chere to defend even the worst people.\u201d\nWhen the undercover journalist asks Perry what\u2019s done to protect a teacher who physically abuses a student, he explains how the union will lie on the teacher\u2019s behalf. Perry states they will alter facts in reports, so that \u201cif it was a physical punch, it wasn\u2019t a punch; it was a shove.\u201d\n\u201cIn other words, if you threatened the kid, you didn\u2019t threaten the kid. You said, \u2018Knock it off, or else,'\u201d Perry says.\n\u201cIf [the teacher] actually said, \u2018Knock it off, or I\u2019ll kill you,\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019ll beat the [expletive] out of you,\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019ll hurt you,\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019ll hurt your family,\u2019 we don\u2019t say that. It\u2019s a mistake. It was out of the emotions. \u2026 We don\u2019t even log that in.\u201d\nThe undercover video has been released at a time when teachers across the United States are holding protests and walkouts to demand better pay and more education funding.\nJames O\u2019Keefe, president of Project Veritas, states in the release, \u201cThe unions would argue that they are protecting the institutions to protect the children. But their actions and words are corrupt. The institutions are not the children. Teachers unions are interested in protecting themselves.\u201d\nThe issues with teachers unions are well recognized. President Donald Trump states in his 2015 book \u201cCrippled America\u201d that teachers unions have become one of the main obstacles to school reform. \u201cWhen there is a legitimate complaint against a teacher in the New York system, rather than having a quick hearing to determine the validity of the complaint, teachers are assigned to an area known as \u2018the rubber room\u2019 while they wait for their hearing,\u201d Trump writes.\n\u201cAnd they wait. They sit in empty classrooms or converted closets and do nothing\u2014but they still get paid their whole salary. Some teachers spend several years waiting.\n\u201cNo wonder they call it the rubber room\u2014the whole concept is insane. But it\u2019s the result of the contracts that strong unions have forced on New York and other cities.\u201d\nIn the undercover video, the union president states that if a teacher reports an incident with a student, he will also ensure the teacher\u2019s report is backdated to the day after the incident took place. He notes this covers for the teacher, \u201cbecause he came in and reported it right away and that he was afraid \u2026 but here\u2019s what happened. Everything else is [expletive].\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m gonna let you know right now he came in the day after. Even though he didn\u2019t, I would say he did. And the only record that this is, it stays here,\u201d he says.\nIn addition to altering reports, Perry says he would also advise the teacher on how to maintain the falsehood, noting the teacher \u201cneeds to not tell anybody a thing\u2014this has gotta be down the river.\u201d\nHe also notes that in such cases, the longer it takes a student to report an incident involving a teacher, the better it is for the union. \u201cThe longer we wait, the longer there\u2019s no, there\u2019s no camera,\u201d Perry says. \u201cAnd we got a [school] break coming up. That\u2019s what\u2019s really nice because nobody\u2019s gonna be looking.\u201d\n\u201cAnd if this kid can\u2019t remember a date, I\u2019m not giving them a date,\u201d Perry says. \u201cYou know how many cases I\u2019ve won on that?\u201d\nThe union president notes he has successfully gotten teachers in the union off the hook in the past, noting one teacher who used drugs and stole. He states, \u201cFive times she was fired, and I got her job back five times.\u201d\nProject Veritas notes that by failing to report incidents such as these involving teachers and students, Perry may have broken the law. It cites a press release that says that according to New Jersey\u2019s Department of Children and Families, \u201cin New Jersey, any person having reasonable cause to believe a child has been subjected to abuse or acts of abuse should immediately report this information.\u201d\nA representative from the Hamilton Township Education Association was reached by phone and confirmed they knew of the recording, but declined to comment further.",

So we decided to get women out of the \u2018sahn\u2019 (Kaaba area) to a better place where they can see the Kaaba and have more space,\u201d said Osama al-Bar, head of the Institute for Haj Research.\n\u201cSome women thought it wasn\u2019t good, but from our point of view it will be better for them \u2026 We can sit with them and explain to them what the decision is (about),\u201d he said.

If Skaggs\u2019 burgeoning trophy case full of awards wasn\u2019t already enough evidence of that fact, consider that legendary guitarist Chet Atkins once credited Skaggs with \u201csingle-handedly saving country music.\u201d His life\u2019s path has taken him to various musical genres, from where it all began in bluegrass music, to striking out on new musical journeys, while still leaving his musical roots intact.\nBorn July 18, 1954 in Cordell, Kentucky, Skaggs showed signs of future stardom at an early age, playing mandolin on stage with bluegrass pioneer Bill Monroe at 6 and appearing on TV with Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs at 7. He emerged as a professional bluegrass musician in 1971, when he and his friend Keith Whitley were invited to join the legendary Ralph Stanley\u2019s band the Clinch Mountain Boys.\nSkaggs then went on to record and perform with progressive bluegrass acts like the Country Gentlemen and J.D. Crowe & the New South, whose self-titled 1975 Rounder Records debut album was instantly recognized as a landmark bluegrass achievement. He then led Boone Creek, which also featured Dobro ace and fellow New South alumnus Jerry Douglas.\nBut Skaggs turned to the more mainstream country music genre in the late \u201870s when he joined Emmylou Harris\u2019s Hot Band, replacing Rodney Crowell. He became a recording artist in his own right in 1981 when his Epic label debut album Waitin\u2019 for the Sun to Shine topped the country charts and yielded a pair of #1 hits. Overall, his productive stay at Epic Records would result in a total of 12 #1 hits. Additionally, he garnered eight Country Music Association Awards--including the coveted Entertainer of the Year trophy in 1985.\nSkaggs, of course, fit right in with young \u201cnew-traditionalist\u201d \u201880s artists like Randy Travis, and helped rejuvenate the country music genre after the worn-out \u201cUrban Cowboy\u201d period. But, Skaggs put his own stamp on the country format by infusing his bluegrass and traditional country music roots into the contemporary Nashville sound.\nSkaggs\u2019 1997 album Bluegrass Rules!, released on his newly-formed Skaggs Family Records label, marked a triumphant return to bluegrass\u2014which he\u2019s solidified ever since with a series of GRAMMY\u00ae Award winning albums, recorded with his amazing bluegrass band, Kentucky Thunder (8-time winners of the IBMA \u2018Instrumental Group of the Year\u2019). Skaggs\u2019 label has also served as a home for similar bluegrass and roots music-oriented artists including Cherryholmes and The Whites.\nRicky struck his first chords on a mandolin over 50 years ago, and he continues to do his part to lead the recent roots revival in music. Clearly his passion for it puts him in the position to bring his lively, distinctively American form of music out of isolation and into the ears and hearts of audiences across the country and around the world. Ricky Skaggs is always forging ahead with cross-cultural, genre-bending musical ideas and inspirations.",

        "raw_content": "Theresa Rose, Hailey Whitters\nVassar continues to churn out incisive, soulful lyrics and infectious melodies that capture the heart and soul in the unique and special way that only he can. For Vassar, his philosophy about songs has never changed during his time spent writing hits for himself and other artists, it\u2019s important for a song to carry a message and make the listener feel something.\nFor the past 5 years, fans have known Theresa Rose as the female lead singer of Caliber, one of Cleveland\u2019s most popular country bands. Caliber is a favorite among local clubs and festivals playing more than 60 dates each year. In addition, with Caliber, Theresa has opened for many national Nashville touring acts including:\n\u2022Sara Evans\n\u2022Darrius Rucker\n\u2022Chris Young\n\u2022Lee Brice\n\u2022Trace Adkins\n\u2022Love & Theft\n\u2022Craig Morgan\n\u2022& many other well-known artists.\nTheresa released her first solo CD in 2013, \u201cHold On\u201d which was a collection of originals that well received among fans and the media. For her second release, Theresa wanted to push her musical boundaries beyond her musical comfort zone. She wanted something that was more personal and reflective of her changing and expanding musical taste.\nAll that came together when she found her perfect partner in music and life... world renowned guitarist Neil Zaza. Together they have crafted a collection of songs that go well beyond the boundaries of traditional country music and explore the alt-country rock genre with fresh ideas and sounds.\nTheresa plans on performing at a number of solo shows with her new backing band during the next year and is currently booking a number of dates in the area. Her first show as a solo artist will take place on November 19th at the Kent Stage as she and her new backing band will open for Nashville artist, Phil Vassar. Accompanying her will be guitarist Neil Zaza.\nHer new solo EP, \u201cNever Learn\u201d, is expected to be released in 2016 and will be available on her website, iTunes and other music distribution sites.\nHailey Whitters- Black Sheep Hailey Whitters // Late Bloomer Hailey Whitters - One More Hell Hailey Whitters - \"City Girl\" (Official Video) Hailey Whitters - \"Breaking My Own Heart\" - Music Moves Festival [HD] 'Hell on Heels' by Pistol Annies (cover)- Cassidy Lynn, Hailey Whitters and Jillian Gottlieb 'Can't Take It With You' by Hailey Whitters 'Black Sheep' - Behind the Scenes with Hailey Whitters\nHailey Whitters has an endearing habit of suggesting she's perennially late to the party. \"I've always just felt like a late bloomer,\" she says, with a sigh that turns into a laugh.\nShe's awfully hard on herself.\nWhitters grew up in Shueyville, Iowa, population just shy of 600. \"It's such a little town. It's getting bigger, but we don't even have a post office,\" she says. \"We have two bars, a wine cellar, and a church.\"\nThe oldest of six children born to a large Catholic family, Whitters grew up a determined but unexpected artist, drawn to songs and singers but unsure why. \"I didn't grow up in a super musical family,\" she says. \"I just had a weird inkling to do music.\" The Dixie Chicks, Trisha Yearwood, Patty Loveless, and other women who drove 90s country radio were her gateway heroines, which led to a deep dive into classic country, and ultimately, Americana storytellers such as Patty Griffin, John Prine, and Gillian Welch.\n\"I took my first trip to Nashville when I was 16 and fell in love,\" Whitters says. \"I immediately knew I wanted to move here.\" A year later, she did. She also enrolled in college, and paid her proverbial dues as a nanny, waitress, and salon receptionist before signing with left-of-center lighthouse Carnival Music in 2012.\n\"When I was younger, I just mimicked people that I admired,\" Whitters says. \"I learned how to tell a story.\" With an arresting voice effortlessly rooted in honky tonk's long tradition of angelic sopranos who are equally comfortable mourning and raising hell, she has spent the last several years discovering that she has something of her own to say -- along with a unique way to say it.\nWhitters writes and sings songs that detail the search for and acceptance of her own life -- sometimes dreamily, other times with rollicking irreverence.\n\"Black Sheep,\" written with the Wrights' Adam Wright, moodily canvasses the rewards and frustrations of sticking out, and ultimately offers a defiant resolution keep going her own way. \"I feel that way a lot, especially in this town,\" she says. \"To do what nobody's doing\u2026it's kind of cool, fuel for the fire. It's invigorating to be different.\"\nThe guitar-soaked stroll \"Late Bloomer\" is an autobiographical ode to lollygagging in a variety of situations. \"I was the oldest of six, so I was very na\u00efve, I felt like,\" she says. \"But I finally came to accept that it's actually okay to figure out who you are and what you want later in life.\"\nWhitters penned live-show standout \"One More Hell\" alone after her little brother was killed in a car accident. \"He was 19. It was awful,\" she says. \"I went home to be with my family, and we went out West that summer. We had no plan, just got in the car and drove. It was really therapeutic and good being all together -- we all just kind of disappeared for a month.\"\nShe sat down to write when she got back to Nashville, and \"One More Hell\" came quickly. \"The first time I ever played it live, this stranger in the front row was bawling,\" she says. \"It's a sad song, but it's kind of a happy song, I always say -- people just feel it.\"\nIn her late teens and early 20s, Whitters performed almost exclusively around Nashville, starting with dive bars and storied Lower Broad honky tonks, singing cover songs for tourists and tips. At local writers' nights, she began ditching others' songs in favor of her own. The town noticed: Music Row critic Robert K. Oermann praised her, urging, \"Keep your ears on this newcomer,\" while the Nashville Scene declared Whitters \"summons the space-country aesthetics\" of 90's Emmylou Harris and Willie Nelson.\nWinning over a crowd delivers an inimitable high for Whitters, who relishes connecting live. \"I love performing 'One More Hell,'\" she says. \"You think no one's listening, and then the middle of that song, you see them raise their beer glasses in the air and know that they're listening and that you're all on the same page.\"\nLately, Whitters' taken to gigging all over the country. She's opened shows for acts ranging from Randy Houser to Chris Knight, and is sincerely grateful for every opportunity. \"I will play just about anywhere,\" she says with a laugh. \"There's something about getting out on the road and traveling that I just love.\"\nWhen she's not touring or writing, Whitters is in the studio, hard at work on her debut album.\n\"I'm a risk taker,\" Whitters says. \"My friends always laugh because I'm kind of one extreme or the other. I'm not really a middle ground kind of person. You take these risks, and then the reward is just\u2026\" She trails off for a moment. \"I feel like the part that feels so awesome about it afterwards is knowing that you were scared to do it, but then you did --",

        "raw_content": "Laptop requirement changes face of Geneseo computing\nBeginning this semester, all freshmen at Geneseo were required to bring a laptop notebook computer to school.\nThe decision was made by President Christopher Dahl in conjunction with Provost Katherine Conway-Turner and the Provost's Advisory Committee on Information Technology, which recommended the policy in September 2005.\nSue Chichester, director of Computing and Information Technology and a member of the committee, is excited to see the initiative in place and believes it will create more opportunities for both students and faculty.\n\"Basically, if a faculty member can expect each student to be able to bring a notebook computer to class, this gives the faculty the advantage to create different learning opportunities for students,\" she said. \"I don't think teaching with notebooks in the classroom is for everyone and we're not trying to push that. The notebook requirement gives options.\"\nChichester expected that this new requirement did not strongly impact most incoming Geneseo students. Chichester noted that in Fall 2006, 96 percent of freshmen had laptops. She also mentioned that when follow-up calls were made to students without a computer, only about five had no plan of obtaining one in the near future.\nCIT's Web site says what it believes to be to the benefits of the policy: \"It enables students, faculty and staff to take advantage of learning opportunities that exist only when every student in a classroom has a laptop. It establishes a campus culture in which faculty and staffs are increasingly willing and able to explore innovative and effective classroom and co-curricular uses of information technology.\"\nChichester said that CIT is attempting to make the campus more compatible with the new initiative. \"We have increased wireless coverage in many buildings. We are beginning to create notebook-friendly areas around campus,\" she said. \"We also have built some collaboration areas where four people can work together with a notebook computer connected to a larger display.\"\nWhile the hopes of CIT have yet to come to fruition this early in the program, some Geneseo freshmen approve of the policy. Christine Lin mentioned, \"I like it because everyone benefits from having a laptop around. It's good for the professors and it's good for you.\" In light of residence hall overcrowding issues, freshman Giselle Munoz acknowledged that her laptop has saved much needed space in her triple. \"If I brought a desktop, I wouldn't have known where to put it,\" she said.\nDespite the advantages, the newly imposed policy has inconvenienced some. Freshman Megan Reynolds ordered a Dell laptop through the Geneseo Notebook Purchase Program offered by CIT, and she has yet to receive the item. \"Dell delayed my order a couple of times,\" she said. \"I have to download software for classes, so I think it would be really useful to have one right now,\" she said.\nCampus-wide reaction to the laptop requirement is a mix of approval and reservations about various aspects of the policy. \"I think it is more accessible when you have a laptop. You can bring it outside or to classes,\" said senior Ashley Jones. \"But since it's a requirement, they have to make the laptop a little bit more affordable and the services more reliable to everyone.\"\nJunior Andrew Li questioned the need of laptop in general. \"I think it is forceful. I survived last two months of previous semester without a laptop. You can go to the library easily,\" said Li. Others argued that the requirement should not be limited to laptops only.\nThe argument over the practicality of the laptop requirement ultimately boils down to a debate of personal preference. Freshman Margot Terc said, \"Personally it fits with me to have a laptop; it's more practical. I can carry it around anywhere. But I don't agree with the requirement where the college tells you that it can't be a desktop for the people that prefer it.\"\n\u2190 Geneseo a great town for singles? Think again.Break convention, learn actively to make classes your own \u2192",

To date, there have been 63,000, with as many as 500 per day last week.\nBetween 20,000 and 25,000 people are expected to be granted asylum this year, and of these one in two is expected to apply to bring family members to Austria. Kurz has said he expects the number of positive asylum decisions to rise to around 40,000 next year.\nKurz has said that every recognised refugee will be given a personalized integration plan which will include access to German language courses, a five week course to determine a refugee\u2019s skills and abilities with the aim of finding them work, and a compulsory eight hour \u201cvalues\u201d course which will discuss issues such as the rule of law, democratic values and equal rights for men and women.\nThe values course will also cover compulsory education, waste disposal and recycling, as well as rules regarding times when you shouldn\u2019t disturb your neighbours with noise (between 10pm and 6am).\n\"These people arriving in our country are not bad people, but they have different values than us, and may not be familiar with our values. It is our job and our duty to familiarize them with our values,\" Kurz said.\nAccording to government figures, 76 percent of current refugee applications are from men. 70 percent of refugees and migrants are aged between 16 and 46 years old - and 25 percent are younger than 16.\nAn initial 23,000 people are expected to be enrolled in the values course, which will be financed by a special integration fund.\nThe majority of people claiming asylum in Austria are from Syria, followed by Afghanistan and then Iraq.\nAustria moves to tighten asylum rules",

        "title": "The Low-Down: Why GDP Systematically Underestimates the Value Of the Digital Economy",
        "raw_content": "Why GDP Systematically Underestimates the Value Of the Digital Economy\nAre we measuring what matters? In fact, do we even know how? JL\nPast technological innovations have enormously boosted human welfare. Digitised goods or services are often free: and without an observable market price, the system of national accounts excludes them entirely from GDP. But just because the consumption of a digital product does not involve a monetary transaction does not mean that it is of zero value to the consumer. Thus the current treatment of digital products within the underestimates the value generated by the digital economy.\nTHE impact of technology on the economy is one of the most-debated issues of the moment, whether it is the potential for automation to cause unemployment, boost long-term productivity, or widen inequality. A good deal of the annual Barclays Equity-Gilt Study was devoted to the subject. But one section caught my eye; the idea that technological change was making GDP a less useful measure.\nThe report says that\nWhen GDP was first introduced, manufacturing accounted for a large share of the core advanced economies, and the (system of national accounts) was designed primarily to measure physical production.\nBut the modern economy is dominated by services and\nServices cover a wide range of activities and are often customised, making their basic unit of production, as well as differences in quality and changes over time, hard to define\nFurthermore, the report points out that\nDigitised goods or services are often free: and without an observable market price, the (system of national accounts), by definition, excludes them entirely from GDP. But just because the consumption of a digital product does not involve a monetary transaction does not automatically mean that it is of zero value to the consumer. Thus the current treatment of digital products within the (system of national accounts) systematically underestimates the value generated by the digital economy.\nThis may be true. My question is how new this is. Past technological innovations have enormously boosted human welfare. But were those benefits reflected in a narrow GDP measure?\nMy great-aunt Amy lived in a one-up, one-down (a house with two floors and just two rooms) in a small Yorkshire town in the 1960s. That meant she had to visit an outside toilet, whatever the weather, or time of day.\u00b9 People today have indoor plumbing. Is that benefit fully reflected in GDP in the form of the cost of toilet installation? It seems unlikely.\u00b2 Great Aunt Amy also had no fridge so had to trek down cobbled streets to get her shopping every day, whatever the weather. Go back further in time and women like Amy would have had to collect the water for the house, for cooking and washing, and the firewood for heating. A third of them would have died in childbirth and they would have lost a lot of children in infancy to disease. After the 1960s, thanks to the pill and contraception, women had more control over their reproductive rights. And so on.\nWe are so used to these benefits that we may not fully appreciate them.\u00b3 But we would if they were gone. And I think they would be missed more greatly than the ability to check our e-mails, listen to our favourite music, or share details of our lives on Facebook. And smartphones may conceivably be part of the productivity problem because they are so distracting: users say they spend two hours a day on social networks and five hours on their smartphones. Which of us does not spend part of the working day getting sucked into Twitter debates, watching Youtube videos and the like? This is time spent not working. Indeed, there may come a point when employers start monitoring our online activity to crack down on this problem. This loss of freedom and privacy will not be measured as a loss in GDP (it may be a gain) but it will be seen as a loss of welfare.\nGDP has long had its critics. It does not measure the unpaid contribution of women in the form of housework, for example. If a mob smashes all the windows in the city centre, GDP goes up when the glaziers replace the glass. We have alternative measures of welfare: longevity (and child mortality) are basic measures, and we can add human height (as an indicator of nutrition), healthy life expectancy (how old are you before infirmity takes over?) and so on. These have been heading in the right direction, dramatically so in some parts of the developing world.\nBut back to the Barclays study. On the subject of automation and jobs, the report argues that, initially, parts of our jobs get automated, rather than the whole thing. Take long-distance trucking. The introduction of rear-view cameras, automatic braking, cruise control etc. has made the task easier, and thus lower skilled. In nominal terms, the average salary of a trucker has grown from $38,000 in 1980 to just $46,000 today, well below inflation. So automation has increased the pool of workers who can do a given task, and thus depressed real wage growth. Technology also creates new jobs\u2014app developers for iPhones, content moderators on websites and so on.\nAs for productivity, it may be too early to see the full benefits. Thomas Edison and others pioneered the electricity industry in the 1880s but more than half of US homes did not get electricity until 1925. Factories needed to be redesigned to take advantage of electrification (the old sites relied on a single steam-driven engine and were laid out accordingly). The best decade for productivity growth in the US was the 1950s, an era with few breakthroughs; technologies developed before the war were finally spreading. So it is possible that artificial intelligence, 3-D printing and the like may yet boost the growth rate and allow us to overcome the problem of demography (an ageing population means fewer workers).\n\u00b9Of course, she could use a chamber pot. But that wasn't a pleasant option either. the report argues that technology automates specific parts of jobs.\n\u00b2A house with a toilet would be worth more, and that would be reflected in GDP via rents. But still...\n\u00b3There is a lot of blood and gore in a post-apocalyptic show like \"The Walking Dead\" but they don't show the consequences of the lack of flushing toilets",

Through Bhutto\u2019s writing, Mir Ali, a town in the tribal region of Waziristan bordering Afghanistan, will come alive \u2013tangible and fully-experienced. A place where it is \u201chard not to die\u201d and \u201cEverything \u2013 success, comfort, respect \u2013 felt out of reach [in Mir Ali].\u201d\nBhutto described the generations of injustice and aggression suffered by the town\u2019s people. From every angle and scene described, poverty is the least of the people\u2019s problem, and only independence from the ruling military government will end all their sufferings.\nYou will have to pay for your choices\u2026\nThree brothers are used to represent the people of Mir Ali, and, maybe, the whole of Pakistan itself. The eldest wished to leave everything behind and start afresh someplace else; the next one prefers to stay and live with the sufferings in order to care for the people; while the youngest stays and fight as brutally as he see fit.\nObviously, the novel is not an easy read. Dread and sadness envelopes each scenario. It is narrated in a haltingly detached manner and cryptic language, withholding enough information to build the tension. Somehow, despite the sudden shifts in the timeline, the anxious thoughts and feelings never left. It highlighted the heaviness of the subject matter. Part of me wished that this novel tied up neatly in the end, but I also know it\u2019s too much to ask, because of the current difficulties and devastation brought by war in Pakistan today.\nBut the shadow of that moon never faded over Mir Ali. It hung over its sky night after night, condemning the town to life under its shadow.\nThe novel has the political air to it, but it is undeniably more about human lives. This is an affecting read; the torrent of pain, anguish, and wrath are both inescapable and moving.\nTitle: The Shadow of the Crescent Moon\nAuthor: Fatima Bhutto\nPublication: Penguin, 2013\n*Thanks to Penguin Press for the opportunity to read this.\nI remember Benazir Bhutto from grade school social studies. Hehehe. I knew the author's name sounded familiar. :)\nLouize DG May 11, 2015 at 9:50 PM\nThe author is Benazir's niece, but people knows her better as former girlfriend of George Clooney. :)",

        "title": "Album review: Mumford & Sons - \"Delta\" | The Young Folks",
        "raw_content": "Album Review: Mumford & Sons \u2013 \u201cDelta\u201d\nModern rock has had a rough showing over the past two or three weeks. New albums from the Imagine Dragons and the Smashing Pumpkins have garnered mainly negative reviews from critics. Thoughtful songwriting and magnificent chords have been replaced with atmospheric electronics, and simplistic guitar riffs.\nNo band has represented that change more than the British folk group Mumford & Sons. Since 2007, Marcus Mumford and company have put together their own tales of feel good imagery and heartbreak through a stripped-down version of the acoustic. Nothing they\u2019ve done stylistically has pushed boundaries within the genre however.\nAside from their few radio hits in the past, Mumford & Sons have failed to introduce any meaningful thematic concept within their music, especially when it comes to their triumphant stories. Their ballads are just as empty as the new Imagine Dragons record. And unfortunately, that still rings true on their newest effort, Delta.\nFor their fourth record (and first in three years), Mumford & Sons trade their acoustic guitars for glossy percussion,and aerial electronics. Sometimes this approach works, like on the surprisingly heartfelt memoir on facing your fears, \u201cThe Wild.\u201d In fact, the band gives one of the best performances of their career, The lyrical content for once isn\u2019t corny or quintessential, and Mumford exchanges his usual bombastic choruses, for an astute take on dealing with the ups and downs of going on tour, and how that may take a toll on an artist (\u201cWhat\u2019s that I see?/I think it\u2019s the wild/ Puts the fear of God in me\u201d). No radio-friendly verses, just heart. The assimilation of the bass and string arrangements at the end of the track ends up being a nice touch as well.\nThe same can be said for the following track, \u201cOctober Skies.\u201d The Brits put together a beautiful piano ballad that\u2019s destined for the stage. While the concept of love has always been at the forefront of Mumford & Sons\u2019 music, \u201cOctober Skies\u201d is presented in a mature and ardent manner.\nMoments like these are few and far between however. The beginning of Delta features a variety of mimics, whether it be of themselves, or other artists. The basic guitar riff on \u201c42\u201d gets tiresome after the first three minutes, and \u201cGuiding Light\u201d represents a lack of focus present throughout this record. The inconsistencies become even more problematic when Mumford & Sons have no clue what direction they want to go in aesthetically. Do they want to revisit their prior roots (like on \u201cGuided Light\u201d), or do they want to enter the pop/electronic road that every other mainstream band wants to go into? Sadly, both trails are uninspired and generic.\nThe album lumbers along mindlessly for the most part, and ends up becoming a painful marathon by the end of it. One can never know why a record like this has to be over an hour long. The latter half essentially turns into filler, specifically with the undeniably laughable, \u201cRose of Sharon.\u201d The chorus (\u201cI will be yours/you will be mine\u201d) sounds exactly like Vance Joy\u2019s \u201cMess is Mine,\u201d just at a faster tempo, and without the acoustic. The songwriting falls into the ongoing genre cliches that still plague modern rock in 2018.\nColdplay continues to be a major influence of the Brits as well, with \u201cPicture You\u201d echoing like a Chris Martin ballad from Ghost Stories. The electronic break in the middle of the track is painfully reminiscent of a modern-day EDM song (a la The Chainsmokers). There\u2019s a certain level of twists and turns that aren\u2019t necessarily warranted. There\u2019s moments on Delta that genuinely make me wonder if I\u2019m listening to another musical act. While the transition from \u201cPicture You\u201d to \u201cDarkness Visible\u201d comes off clean, the latter track is nothing more than a moody practice in mixing and mastering instruments, all presented in spoken word. The album has the same desolate feeling as a Fleet Foxes project, but without the thoughtfulness, or ability to stay open-minded.\nAside from a few atmospheric interpretations, Delta does nothing more than hop onto the undying trend of hollow songwriting within modern-day pop rock. Mumford & Sons have virtually abandoned their folk stylings, for radio-friendly ballads filled with grand percussion. And much like their contemporaries from Las Vegas, little-to-none are worth re-visiting.\nMumford & Sons - \"Delta\"\nTags Delta Mumford & Sons\nPrevious ArticleAlbum Review: The Prodigy - \"No Tourists\"\nNext ArticleThe Favourite Movie Review: The farce involved nearly impedes any dramatic empathy gained by Yorgos Lanthimos",

        "raw_content": "40-year triumph of Islamic revolution of Iran\nReza Asgari Correspondent\nOne of the most dramatic changes in government in Iran\u2019s history was seen with the 1979 Iranian Revolution where Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was overthrown and replaced by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini on February 2nd.\nThe Islamic Revolution chatted the beginning of great and fundamental changes in Iran and the countries of the region.\nThis report seeks to review the important achievements of the Islamic Revolution and the progress of the Islamic Republic in the field of science and technology.\nScientific advances and the achievement of the Islamic Republic of Iran in some of the new technologies in recent years surprisingly came as a worry to some Westerners, the result being the pressure being borne on Iran to abandon the nuclear program, among others, so as to stall Iran\u2019s progress. The following indicators can partly reflect these enhancements. Comparing the status of higher education in Iran before and after the revolution in the census of 1355 and 1390 represents significant achievements:\nThe literacy rate rose from 47 percent in 55 years to 93 percent in the year 90.\nThe average of applicants for secondary education has increased from 23 percent to 85 percent.\nThe population with higher education qualifications rose from 310,000 to 5474,000 in the 1990s.\nThe number of students has increased from 170,000 to 4m.\nThe number of Ph.D. students increased by 60 points from 9458 to 580,638.\nIn the 55th year of growth, Iran\u2019s scientific rank was 52 in the world and reached the world\u2019s 17th rank in the 1990s.\n1-With regard to the application areas of Nano science, such as the production and accumulation of drugs, diagnosis of diseases, water detoxification, increased productivity in agriculture, the accumulation and maintenance of agricultural products and food, pest control and sanitation, the effects of these achievements in the lives of the people are palpable and will continue to be. Iran is now ranked 12 in the world of Nano science.\nIran has made significant advances in Medical Science, especially in areas such as stem cells, repair of spinal cord injuries, the production of strategic drugs, simulations of animals, etc. Iran ranks amongst the first in this field. Today, advanced hospitals in Iran are offering sophisticated treatment and surgical procedures to patients from other countries within the region.\nEntry into the World Space Club is one of the country\u2019s scientific and technological achievements in the post-revolution period. With space science and technology limited number of countries in the world, Iran is now the only country in the region with this home grown knowledge and technology. So far, several satellites have been built and will be launched in future by more advanced space carriers from the Islamic Republic. Iran is now among the only six countries designing, constructing and launching satellites in the world.\nThe growth and development of the automotive, steel and aluminium, shipbuilding as well as aircraft industries, and the country\u2019s progress in the construction of docks, drilling of oil and gas wells, construction of a refineries, dams, silos, highways and other various types of metal and concrete structures, are among other scientific and technological developments in the country.\nThe Islamic Republic is now a nuclear country and a member of the nuclear club of the world. Despite all the sanctions and threats, Iran has achieved a complete cycle of nuclear fuel (enrichment) with the efforts and struggles of its young people and its specialists, and in terms of scientific and technological knowledge, it is in the ranks of 7-8 advanced countries in the world. Nuclear power is used in various fields of medicine, veterinary medicine, industry, agriculture, electricity generation, etc. Undoubtedly, with the consolidation and institutionalization of the fuel cycle in Iran, this valuable achievement will reveal its works in all these areas.\nReza Asgari, Cultural Counsellor, Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Zimbabwe",

During an appearance on \"Jimmy Kimmel Live\" Wednesday, Rheon described how the memorable scene came to pass.\n\"It was the last scene I did, so I did suspect they'd actually let it happen for real,\" said Rheon of the dogs tearing away at him. \"Realistically, I wasn't anywhere near any dogs.\"\nNo dog ever got this close to Rheon.\nRheon did see a few dogs on set that they've used before.

They're kind of guard dogs. They're trained to be vicious, really, and they only listen to their owner. So if you have eye contact with them, they take that as a direct threat. So I wasn't allowed to be anywhere near these dogs.\"\nRheon noted that the finished scene that aired was all CGI. There may have been one shot where there's an actual dog behind him in a cage.\nKimmel thought it may just be easier to film with dogs \"who are trained not to kill the actors.\"\n\"It's so 'Game of Thrones' isn't it not to do that?\" joked Rheon.\nYou can tune in to see who will get killed off \"Game of Thrones\" next when it airs on HBO Sunday night.\nWatch Rheon on \"Jimmy Kimmel Live!\" below:\nSEE ALSO: 10 new photos from the next episode of \"Game of Thrones\"\nDON'T MISS: 'Game of Thrones' has been hinting at Jon Snow's true parentage since season one\nMore: Game of Thrones ABC Jimmy Kimmel Live late-night",

        "title": "The U.S. Economy of the1960s and 1970s",
        "raw_content": "traffic_analyzer / Getty Images\nThe 1950s in America are often described as a time of complacency. By contrast, the 1960s and 1970s were a time of significant change. New nations emerged around the world, and insurgent movements sought to overthrow existing governments. Established countries grew to become economic powerhouses that rivaled the United States, and economic relationships came to predominate in a world that increasingly recognized that the military may not be the only means of growth and expansion.\nThe 1960s' Effect on the Economy\nPresident John F. Kennedy (1961-1963) ushered in a more activist approach to governing. During his 1960 presidential campaign, Kennedy said he would ask Americans to meet the challenges of the \"New Frontier.\" As president, he sought to accelerate economic growth by increasing government spending and cutting taxes, and he pressed for medical help for the elderly, aid for inner cities, and increased funds for education.\nMany of these proposals were not enacted, although Kennedy's vision of sending Americans abroad to help developing nations did materialize with the creation of the Peace Corps. Kennedy also stepped up American space exploration. After his death, the American space program surpassed Soviet achievements and culminated in the landing of American astronauts on the moon in July 1969.\nPresident Kennedy's assassination in 1963 spurred Congress to enact much of his legislative agenda. His successor, Lyndon Johnson (1963-1969), sought to build a \"Great Society\" by spreading benefits of America's thriving economy to more citizens. Federal spending increased dramatically, as the government launched such new programs as Medicare (health care for the elderly), Food Stamps (food assistance for the poor), and numerous education initiatives (assistance to students as well as grants to schools and colleges).\nMilitary spending also increased as American's presence in Vietnam grew. What had started as a small military action under Kennedy mushroomed into a significant military initiative during Johnson's presidency. Ironically, spending on both wars -- the war on poverty and fighting the war in Vietnam -- contributed to prosperity in the short term. But by the end of the 1960s, the government's failure to raise taxes to pay for these efforts led to accelerating inflation, which eroded this prosperity.\nThe 1973-1974 oil embargo by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) pushed energy prices rapidly higher and created shortages. Even after the embargo ended, energy prices stayed high, adding to inflation and eventually causing rising rates of unemployment. Federal budget deficits grew, foreign competition intensified, and the stock market sagged.\nThe Vietnam War dragged on until 1975, President Richard Nixon (1969-1973) resigned under a cloud of impeachment charges, and a group of Americans were taken hostage at the U.S. embassy in Tehran and held for more than a year. The nation seemed unable to control events, including economic affairs. America's trade deficit swelled as low-priced and frequently high-quality imports of everything from automobiles to steel to semiconductors flooded into the United States.\nFiscal Policy in the 1960s and 1970s\nWhat happened to the American economy in the 1980s?\nOutline of the U.S. Economy\nThe Biggest Stories and Events That Dominated the 1970s\nHow World War I Changed the U.S. Economy for Good\nLearn About the Growth of Government in the United States\nA Quick Rundown on the History and Geography of China",

        "title": "Total Solar Eclipse 2017: Best Places to Watch the Eclipse in the US - Thrillist",
        "raw_content": "The Best Places in America to Watch the Total Solar Eclipse\nBy Matt Meltzer Updated On 08/18/2017 at 12:02PM EST\nBy Matt Meltzer @mmeltrez Updated On 08/18/2017 at 12:02PM EST\nPorPla/Shutterstock\nIf you\u2019ve been avoiding the news for the past six months (and hey, I don\u2019t blame you) you may have missed that America\u2019s about to experience its first total eclipse of the sun in 38 years. On August 21 the moon will completely blot out the sun, and stretches of the United States will be in complete darkness as the moon casts its shadow. During an eclipse like this, the temperature drops, light takes on a spooky filtered effect, and the sun\u2019s corona is visible as a spectacular aura around the moon, just for a moment.\nPeople are rightfully stoked. This is the first time since 1979 the US has been in the path of a full eclipse, and even then it was visible only in six Northwestern states. This year\u2019s will cross the country from Oregon to South Carolina, marking the first time in 99 years that we\u2019ve had a coast-to-coast eclipse.\nThe madness is still ramping up. If you haven't made travel plans yet, be sure to look for late flight deals to cities in the path of totality, and watch out for counterfeit eclipse glasses.\nBut unlike in horseshoes, hand grenades, and any work you do after lunch on a Friday, \u201cclose enough\u201d just isn\u2019t going to cut it. As one quote from Columbia, South Carolina\u2019s dedicated eclipse page put it:\n\u201cFor those who choose to experience this eclipse outside the path, a partial eclipse is all they will see. Even if the sun is 99.9% eclipsed for these observers, they will not experience the full, jaw-dropping, knee-buckling, emotionally-overloading, completely overwhelming spectacle that is totality.\u201d -- Dan McGlaun, veteran of 12 total solar eclipses\nWhat Dan is trying to say, y\u2019all, is that to really experience this thing you\u2019re probably going to have to travel. The \u201cline of totality\u201d is only about 70 miles wide, and even within that 70 miles the duration of the eclipse can only be a few seconds, so only a handful of places will be truly great for viewing. We took a look at The Great American Eclipse\u2019s picks for the best places to see it, and found out what\u2019s going on there. Then, three days from the eclipse, we added the weather forecasts for each, courtesy of Wunderground.\nColumbia, South Carolina | Sean Pavone/Shutterstock\nTime of eclipse: 2:43pm\nSite: totaleclipsecolumbiasc.com\nWeather forecast: Not great. Chance of rain all day, spiking above 20% in the afternoon.\nAlong America\u2019s heavily populated eastern seaboard, Columbia is the largest city in the line of totality. So expect pilgrimages to the Palmetto State capitol from folks from New York down to Miami. Columbia\u2019s meeting them in style, with space-themed performances from the SC Philharmonic and a Columbia Fireflies baseball game taking place during the eclipse. The Columbia Motor Speedway will be the only race track holding a total eclipse viewing party, and the city has a number of public spaces hosting smaller events.\nMadras, Oregon | Steve30408/Shutterstock\nTime of eclipse: 10:19am\nSite: madraseclipse.com\nWeather forecast: Immaculate. A 0% chance of rain during the eclipse.\nThis tiny town in central Oregon has been cited by some as THE best place to see the eclipse, and it\u2019s definitely the top far-west spot to put yourself in the line of totality. The city has set up a campground along the centerline dubbed \u201csolartown\u201d where outdoor enthusiasts can hang out and wait for the show. Did we mention weed is legal here? So there\u2019s that. There\u2019s also three days of live music featuring local acts and tribute bands to Aerosmith, Heart, and Tom Petty.\nNashville, Tennessee | f11photo/shutterstock\nSite: visitmusiccity.com/eclipse\nWeather forecast: Outstanding. Clear with a 1% chance of rain.\nWe didn\u2019t call out Nashville as one of the best places to visit in 2017 because we liked the Predators\u2019 chances in the playoffs. It\u2019s the only metropolis in the line of totality, and the city boasts more than a few rooftop bars, restaurants, and pop-up locations to view the most unusual two minutes of the decade. In addition to all the parties, the Adventure Science Center will host a music and technology festival from the 19th to the 21st, and the Nashville Sounds will have a special eclipse party during their Monday game. Every park in the city as well as the zoo and public waterways have some kind of festivities going on. If you can snag a hotel room (or a couch) Music City might be the most exciting place in America on August 21.\nSite: eclipseville.com\nWeather forecast: Ideal. Clear with about a 2% chance of rain.\nHopkinsville is promoting itself as \u201cthe point of greatest eclipse,\u201d which while it may not technically be true doesn\u2019t diminish the wealth of activities in one of the longest-eclipsed cities in the country. Its Kentucky Bourbon Mashoree kicks off on the 17th, drawing bourbon makers from all over Kentucky to the MB Roland Distillery for four days of food, music, and sweet brown liquor. Sunday will feature a Bluegrass Bash at nearby Burdoc Farms, and Eclipse Con will bring luminaries from the world of comics, anime, and sci-fi to the Bruce Convention Center for the weekend as well.\nGatlinburg, Tennessee | Dave Allen Photography/Shutterstock\nSite: www.nps.gov/grsm/planyourvisit/2017-solar-eclipse.htm\nWeather forecast: Strong. Clear with 3% chance of rain midday.\nStraddling the border of Tennessee and North Carolina, America\u2019s most-visited National Park will get an even bigger boost this year, as it\u2019s the only one with significant viewing areas in the line of totality. The parking lot at the Clingman\u2019s Dome trailhead will be closed to host scientists, storytellers, and park rangers explaining the cultural and natural significance of the event. The dome is the park\u2019s highest point, and will offer the best viewing, but events are also planned for Cades Cove and Oconaluftee. Even if you can\u2019t make those, anywhere in the western part of the park should give you an excellent view.\nThe Most Hilariously Bizarre Theme Cruises in the World\nThe 13 American Beaches You Need to Hit This Summer\nGREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA | Shutterstock\nSite: visitgreenvillesc.com/eclipse/\nWeather forecast: Could be better! Partially cloudy with a 15% chance of rain.\nGreenville\u2019s spanking-new Up on the Roof bar at the Embassy Suites and SIP Tasting Room will be your go-to rooftop spots for daytime darkness. Furman University will open up Paladin Stadium and have a guided presentation by one of its senior physics profs. The Roper Mountain Science Center -- home to the world\u2019s eighth-largest refractor telescope -- will host a weekend-long space extravaganza at its newly renovated planetarium. And the Red Sox Single-A affiliate Greenville Drive has moved its game time to 1pm so it can conveniently be interrupted by the eclipse.\nSite: eclipse.siu.edu\nWeather forecast: Pretty good. Partly cloudy, no chance of rain.\nThe longest duration of the eclipse\u2019s totality will be just south of Carbondale in the Shawnee National Forest. But does that forest have a football stadium from which to see the blazing corona? No, it does not. Southern Illinois University in Carbondale does, however. It\u2019s opening up Saluki Stadium for viewing, charging $25 a ticket, with luxury suite packages available if you really wanna go all out. Around the stadium will be a technology expo, arts & crafts fair, and food vendors. Mat Kaplan, the host and producer of Planetary Radio, will be your guide and MC for the day. If you miss this one, Carbondale will be right in the same path for our next solar eclipse, in 2024.\nSt. Joseph, Missouri | Education Images/Universal Images Group/Getty Images\nSite: stjosepheclipse.com\nWeather forecast: Could get interesting. Chance of rain all day, hitting 15% at midday.\nSure, Kansas City might sport more bars, restaurants, and public viewing spaces. But it\u2019s only getting the eclipse for, like, 50 seconds. St. Joseph, a city of 77,000 about an hour north, has one of the longest eclipse times of any significantly populated area in the country, and nearly the longest viewing possible. The Rosecrans Memorial Airport will host one of the largest organized public viewing events in the country, where Front Page Science will bring a team of astronomers and safety-filtered telescopes to help enhance the experience.\nNorth Platte, Nebraska | marekuliasz/Shutterstock\nDuration: 1 minute, 50 seconds in town / 2 minutes, 30 seconds just north\nSite: 2017nebraskaeclipse.com\nWeather forecast: Not bad. A chance of clouds, no chance of rain.\nThe beautiful sandhills of western Nebraska offer your best chances for clear skies in the eclipse\u2019s path, with 74% of late-August days historically reporting good viewing conditions. The closest city is North Platte, a cattle town of about 25,000 just off I-80. From there it\u2019s a short drive up to the sandhills, where the tiny communities of Tryon and Stapleton will have massive (for them) parties for the event. Make sure you stick around after it gets light, then dark again. The sandhills are known as one of the best star-gazing spots in America.\nCasper, Wyoming | Oscar C. Williams/Shutterstock\nSite: eclipsecasper.com\nWeather forecast: Pristine. Clear and dry in the morning, with a chance of rain in the afternoon.\nWyoming and its big, clear skies have been at the top of many an eclipse-viewers list for places to watch the event. The best viewing in a populated area is going to be Casper, where a five-day festival will descend on the city, culminating in the main event on the morning of the 21st. The Astronomical League is holding its annual convention here just before the eclipse, so there will be plenty of people around to explain everything in painstaking detail. And though places like Jackson Hole and Grand Tetons will be in the eclipse\u2019s path too, Casper is the only place in the direct line of totality. And will likely be less crowded -- and maybe cheaper -- than other parts of the state.\nIncredible Street Murals Around the World You Have to See\n20 Epic Getaways You Can Rock in Just One Weekend\nSnake River Valley, Idaho | Christopher Lucas/Shutterstock\nSite: eclipsophile.com/idaho\nWeather forecast: Glorious. A few clouds, no chance of rain.\nSeeing the eclipse in the great out-of-doors might make it feel like a more transcendent experience than in a big city. For drop-dead gorgeous scenery and recreation, no place tops the Snake River Valley. This region about four hours north of Boise has some of the best whitewater rafting in the northwest, and the drive through the Snake River Canyon scenic byway is worth a trip any time. But a gondola ride up to the top of Bald Mountain and its 9,150 foot summit offers one of the most unobstructed, close-up views of the action.\nStill not satisfied?

        "title": "Farrsville History - Newton County Texas \u2013 Toledo Bend Lake",
        "raw_content": "Farrsville \u2013 Newton County \u2013 Texas\nAn Official State of Texas Historical Marker stands beside state highway No. 63 about nine miles out of Burkeville in the direction of Jasper for the Farrsville Community, another one of the oldest communities of Newton County.\nFarrsville is on Cow Creek in northwestern Newton County. It was named for Alfred Farr of Mississippi, who shortly after Texas \u201cgot free,\u201d brought his family and slaves into Newton County and established the community. He operated a plantation on the site. Farr was preceded by James P. Hardy who came in about 1832 while the land was still under the impresario, Lorenzo dc Zavala, who started the Zavala Trail that ran a little south of the Old Beef Road, six miles north of Farrsville, Running cast the Zavala Trail forked in Newton County, one trail crossing the Sabine at Hadden\u2019s Ferry and the other at the older ferry. Burr\u2019s Ferry.\nFarrsville Community played a far greater part in the early history of Newton County than one would suspect today at visiting the community.\nThe place was originally called Farr\u2019s Mill. It was a water mill built by slave labor. The slaves were brought along with the settlers in the forties or early fifties. There were several large plantations about Farrsville. Farrsville lay on what for a time was known as the Military Road, used during the war by Confederate Troops. It was important as a stagecoach route which ran from Alexandria, Louisiana, to Burr\u2019s Ferry in to Burkeville and Jasper, and thence south to Beaumont.\nDuring its time, Farrsville has had a water mill, a gin, sawmills, and a gristmill. The sawmill cut lumber until the Wiergate mill opened in 1918, and the gristmill ran until 193?. The post office, which does not appear on ante-bellum lists, was discontinued in 1948, and the community gets mail on a rural route from the Wiergate post office. The school district became part of the Burkeville-Wiergate Independent School District by consolidation. There arc scattered residences over the community with a probable population of 100. Highway 63 runs through the community. Two stores arc in operation along the highway on Cow Creek.\nThe life of pioneer communities was far from easy and survival often meant that the people were strong, both in body and moral spirit.\nFarrsville has been the home of many famous men of the day, among them Charles Hancock, who was for sixteen years sheriff and tax collector of Newton County. Once a year he would put what money was due the State of Texas in his saddlebags and ride his mule to the Capitol to settle Newton County\u2019s account.\nFarrsville Community was the home of Thomas C. Holmes, a Revolutionary War soldier. He is buried in what is called the Blackshear Fields on the southeastern part of the community. His grave bears a marker identifying him as a Revolutionary War Soldier. His name is listed in \u201cTEXAS and the American Revolution\u201d a publication of the University of Texas at San Antonio, Institute of Texan Cultures. He is one of the 46 mentioned in that list of Revolutionary War soldiers who came to Texas.\nSome two or three miles distance from Farrsville itself lies Farr\u2019s Chapel. The original Farr was a preacher, and he built the church. It served as a great camp meeting place. The faith, then and now, is Methodist.\nAnother church building stands close to the mill site. It was once used as a school house for the Farrsville Community. It was also a Methodist church.\nAn established date in Newton County for recalling \u201cold times\u201d is the Second Sunday in June when Farrsville has its annual homecoming. It is held at Farr\u2019s Chapel which is steeped in history. One former resident described Farrsville: \u201cOne of the historic spots of East Texas is that of old Farrsville.\u201d It is located in Newton County, between Jasper and Newton. A brief story of that community is told by Mrs. Emma Hilliard Teal, of Votaw.\nShe says, \u201cI was born at Farrsville Dec. II, 1879. My parents, Wallace and Alice Hilliard, lived in the small community, with its store and post office. W.B. Powell, my grandfather, owned considerable property there.\n\u201cThere was one grist mill, a lumber mill, a cotton gin, a general merchandise store and the post office. The mills were all operated by water power from Cow Creek. The community was on what was then known as \u2018the big road\u2019 that ran from Jasper to Newton and Burkeville. \u201cThe road forked, near Cow Creek, one branch going to Newton, and the other to Burkeville. A large pond supplied the mills, and the mills were operated by my father. The cotton gin had a press powered by a yoke of oxen. The gin stand was on the second floor, and the seed dropped to the first floor from the gin.\n\u201cThe lint was placed in an adjoining room. Cotton farmers unloaded their seed cotton into stalls on the second floor and it was carried to the gin stand in a basket. The lint was carried to the press from the storage room in the same way.\u201d\nThe Farrsville Community is one of the oldest in Newton County. It is noted for the water mill that was operated there. One of the scenic sights around a mill is the water pond. Mrs. E. H. Teal of Votaw, describes the mill site:\n\u201cNear the pond there was a vat where cowhides were cured and tanned. The grist mill was the old-fashioned rock type. The rocks were chiseled so as to make it possible to grind the corn into meal. The sawmill had a carriage operated by a lever, and the saw was like a crosscut saw. It moved up and down as the log advanced on it. Farr\u2019s Chapel was down the Newton road, and the Farr cemetery is there.\n\u2018 \u2018Wallace Milliard served as \u2018doctor\u2019 for the community. He had a pair of tooth pullers, and looked after cases of toothache. His medicine chest consisted of a supply of calomel, podophyllyn, bismuth, baking soda, common syrup, castor oil, and Epsom salt. These were \u2018sure cures\u2019 for biliousness.\n\u201cA Methodist preacher served the little church there, and at Farr\u2019s Chapel, Newton, and Magnolia. He traveled by buggy and was there 23 years.\n\u201cMail was carried horseback, in saddlebags, and the mail route originated in Jasper. The old store kept supplies of green coffee in barrels, flour, sugar, and all kinds of dry goods and hardware. Coffee and sugar were measured with a scoop. Pecans sold for 5 cents a cup.\u201d\nFarrsville Community has been the birthplace of many people who are now scattered all over Texas and beyond. A Mr. Charles McKim had the following to say about Farrsville.\n\u201cMy grandfather, Charles McKim, married Daily\u2019s daughter about 1840 and lived on one of his labors\u2019 before coming to Polk County in 1843. Now Spring Creek is called Hunter\u2019s Creek and its waters run into Cow Creek just below Jamestown.\n\u201cI was born in 1890 and went to Farrsville in 1894. There were four houses there then, I considered them mansions. On the other side of the road was Grandpa Harper and a house lived in at the time by my mother\u2019s sister and Uncle Jim Hancock.\n\u201cA hundred yards or so east lived Gary Womack and about a fourth mile farther on was Uncle Sim Horger, B. Z. Horger had a general store and with the mill that was all of Farrsville\u2019s industry at that time.\n\u201cAunt Viney Ford, a Farr slave, said Farr\u2019s Mill was built by the Farrs and she carried water to the workers, being too small for work.\n\u201cWhen I went there in 1894 they had a circular saw with patented teeth which could be replaced when worn out. One thing that impressed me was the way a bale of cotton was pressed. Oxen were trained to turn the press on the cotton bales.\n\u201cWhen a bale was pressed they were turned loose and ran of their own accord down the steep hill to two sweet gum trees and stood there in the shade until another bale was ready to press. Grandpa Harper ginned over 300 bales one season.\u201d\nSome of the history of Farrsville has been written in a letter from Judge Belk who resided in Kirbyville until his death. The letter was written in 1934, a copy of which is owned by Ward P. Westbrook, a public accountant of Jasper, Texas. The letter shows that Farrsville was located in a strategic spot. It says:\n\u201cThe breastworks at Burr\u2019s Ferry was built by the Confederates during the Civil War at a time when we were expecting a federal invasion from toward Alexandria. I remember distinctly when they came around, over Newton and Jasper counties and took Negroes over there to do the work. I can not remember the year, but think it was about 1863.\n\u201cThis was on a direct route and might have been called a military route from the lower Red River section of Texas.\n\u201cI remember distinctly the passing of companies, regiments and brigades along the routes going both east and west. A favorite camping place at that time was Farr\u2019s Mill, now known as Farrsville. I remember well the stage route across the country, that it began at Alexandria on the Red River and crossed the Sabine at Burr\u2019s Ferry. Then on to Burkeville and Jasper.\n\u201cFrom Jasper it turned south to Beaumont and from there to Houston, I remember to have ridden on this line several times, and I know that the route you mention was a regular stage line. I know that Burkeville was the first county seat of Newton County and that it was moved to Newton, but I don\u2019t know when.\n\u201cI remember nothing about who commanded the soldiers who passed that route, except that I do remember that Gen. Tom Green passed Farrsville going east and that they camped near our home. Tom Green\u2019s body, after he was killed, was brought back over this route and the escort camped overnight at our home at Farr\u2019s Mill.\nJudge Belk wrote in 1934 that:\n\u201cMy father, as old timers know, was a leather worker. He not only tanned the leather but manufactured it after it was tanned. He selected Farr\u2019s Mill as the most favorable place to put in a tannery. He did this during the early part of the Civil War and maintained it as a tannery and shoe and boot making establishment, principally for the Confederate government.\n\u201cHis name was A.S. Belk. I do not know when Alfred Farr built the mill. It was built, however, shortly before the Civil War. Mr. Farr was a wealthy slave owner and had a large farm one mile south of the mill. I do not know when the Farrs came to Texas but I know that it was not many years before the Civil War. The Farrs and the Wingates came here about the same time. They were related.\u201d\nAnother person has said about the founder of Farrsville:\nMr. Alfred Farr came to this place about 1833, and established the community of Farrsville, which was named for him. However, the first name given the community was Farr\u2019s Mill. He not only opened a large plantation about two miles down Cow Creek, but he also built a large water mill, which operated a cotton gin, grist mill and saw mill. This was not the extent of his activities. He found time to administer to the spiritual needs of the settlers in the surrounding area. The church is also named for him, in fact I believe it is said that he built the original church building.\nMrs. Emma Teal, a daughter of Wallace Hilliard, who was born in Farrsville in 1870, said that at this time there was, in addition to the mill, a general merchandising store and the Post Office. She further states that her father served as doctor of the community. He had a pair of tooth pullers and looked after cases of tooth ache. His medicine contained a supply of calomel, a supply of may apple extract. If you don\u2019t know what this is, it is a bitter purgative, made from the rootstock of the May apple.",

        "raw_content": "Podcast #28 - Deep Dive on Safety of IV Contrast in CTs with Paul Schunk\nContrast has been hotly debated in the radiology and emergency medicine world. Many of these contrast medications (such as Iohexol above) have demonstrated safety and efficacy. However, a deep dive has been sorely needed on this subject and with recent relevant papers over the last year this felt like the right time. Joined by Dr. Paul Schunk, we explore the mysteries and evidence that exists for contrast safety in CTs for acute kidney injury and contrast induced nephropathy.\nWhen understanding contrast and its safety, the first step is to define what we are looking for in the first place. Probably the single best source for a definition comes from the American College or Radiology's Manual on Contrast Media version 10.2 with the Post-Contrast Acute Kidney Injury and Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Adults last updated on November 19, 2014 for the relevant section.\nThey define post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI) as \"a general term used to describe a sudden deterioration in renal function that occurs within 48 hours following the intravascular administration of iodinated contrast medium. PC-AKI may occur regardless of whether the contrast medium was the cause of deterioration.\" This means that this is a correlative diagnosis and does not mean the contrast caused the AKI!\nNow let us take the more difficult to identify contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) which they define as \"a specific used to describe a sudden deterioration in renal function that is caused by the intravascular administration of iodinated contrast medium.\" That would make CIN a subgroup of PC-AKI but that this is a causative diagnosis. This is harder to actually prove though and is becoming part of a much larger debate including of its very existence.\nSome other points worth mentioning from the ACR manual includes that they acknowledge CIN being a rare entity and that serum creatinine can be considerably influence by the patient's gender, muscle mass, nutritional status, and age. They instead recommend other measures such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) for predicting the true GFR.\nIt is very much worth noting two of the recommendations from the ACR manual that we will discuss more below. The first point is that if the GFR is 45 or greater there is no independent nephrotoxic risk factor and that in patients with an eGFR between 30-44, IV iodinated contrast media is either not nephrotoxic or rarely so. Second, there is little to suggest that contrast is an independent risk factor for AKI in patients with an eGFR at least 30. They are quick to point out though that any threshold put into practice should b weighed on an individual patient level with the risks and benefits compared. Also, when discussing the morbidity and mortality of PC-AKI it is unusual for patients to develop permanent renal dysfunction. A final point before we move on is that volume expansion is the major preventative action in mitigating the risk of CIN both before and after contrast medium administration.\nThe first McDonald paper to discuss is the April 2013 publication with the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) journal called Frequency of Acute Kidney Injury Following Intravenous Contrast Medium Administration: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. As with any of these papers, a full review is very much worth the time but the key finding to be aware of from this paper was the fact that \"controlled contrast medium-induced nephropathy studies demonstrate a similar incidence of AKI, dialysis, and death between the contrast medium group and the control group. There were two somewhat peculiar studies included in the analysis that we explain better in the podcast why they may not have been such good papers and were definitely the odd ones out.\nMcDonald's second paper we will discuss is from the April 2014 issue of RSNA called Risk of Intravenous Contrast Material-mediated Acute Kidney Injury: A Propensity Score-matched Study Stratified by Baseline-estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate. This study had a very unique finding because although the incidence of AKI significantly increased with decreasing baseline eGFR (P < 0.0001) the incidence was not significantly different between contrast material and non-contrast material groups in any eGFR subgroup which was a rather significant and influential finding that most readers were probably not suspecting. The authors go on to talk about how equations to calculate eGFR demonstrated superior correlation to the actual GFR compared to serum creatinine.\nIn 2013 Davenport and his team also published important papers in RSNA with the October 2013 paper called Contrast Medium-induced Nephrotoxicity Risk Assessment in Adult Inpatients: A Comparison of Serum Creatinine Level- and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate-based Screening Methods. This more conservative but still influential and pertinent paper found that using an eGFR screening of less than 45 would significantly increase the number of inpatients identified to be at risk for CIN but would help reduce misidentifying those patients who would be considered low risk. If your hospital is currently using serum creatinine for its screening, there is a useful section comparing those cutoffs versus eGFR cutoffs to find what would be most applicable and acceptable at your facility.\nThe September 2013 Davenport paper in RSNA was titled Contrast Material-induced Nephrotoxicity and Intravenous Low-Osmolality Iodinated Contrast Material: Risk Stratification by Using Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate. This paper discussed how patients with a stable eGFR less than 30 have a risk of nephrotoxicity with low-osmolality iodinated contrast material (LOCM) with a trend toward the same if the eGFR was 30-44. However, if the eGFR was 45 or more prior to CT then LOCM does not appear to be a nephrotoxic risk factor. Again, this paper was more conservative than McDonald's team in their findings but new papers were sure to come.\nFast forward to the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology and a paper that was published there by Wilhelm-Leen and her team called Estimating the Risk of Radiocontrast-Associated Nephropathy that was published in September of 2016. In their study the find the risk of AKI appeared to be overstated in the literature and overestimated by clinicians. They mention that in their patients those who received radiocontrast were generally sicker than those that did not receive contrast. This is an important point with regards to certain counterarguments brought up about patients who received contrast and maybe not being as sick.\n\u200b\u200bThe final paper reviewed today and on the podcast is a paper with the lead author of Hinson published to the Annals of Emergency Medicine titled Risk of Acute Kidney Injury After Intravenous Contrast Media Administration. Its very important confirmed what previous papers such as the ones above suggested in that intravenous contrast was not associated with an increased risk of AKI. This paper is well worth the read but one of the key aspects worth noting in this paper was that there were three groups compared: one where patients received IV contrast with their CT, another where they did not get contrast with their CT, and then the last group had no CT at all. Although not statistically significant, it is worth noting that in each case those who got IV contrast were at the lowest incidence of any of the measured outcomes listed for the study in the paper specifically. Outcomes were also measured long term at six months including very important patient oriented outcomes such as newly diagnosed chronic kidney disease, dialysis, and renal transplant. There was a lot to discuss in this paper along with the others so make sure to listen to the podcast for the other details not mentioned here.\nThis was a long deep dive but there is still plenty of information out there to explore. It is important to review the papers in detail to find the finer points that cannot be discussed fully here.

        "raw_content": "Breast cancer- the complete way to heal\nBreast cancer is the number one cancer that kills women. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation have proved that there needs to be a more comprehensive approach to healing this disease. The answer can only be found when one truly understands that breast cancer is not caused by physical factors alone but like all disease, is holistic \u2013 meaning it only manifests when the body, mind, emotions and spirit are out of balance. When these four are in harmony, the stage is set for complete healing to occur.\nBreast cancer must be looked at from an environmental and emotional perspective. So what makes cancer cells form and become so aggressive? The answer is found in the environment that the cells are raised in. If a person is laden with chemicals and toxins, if they are deficient in key vital nutrients, if they have had physical trauma or even worse, emotional trauma, all these factors press the button for normal cells to change into cancer cells.\nMental/Emotional/Spiritual Protocol\nBreast cancer is linked to the emotional shocks of worry, fear and separation. These are not small day-to-day worries but major emotional shocks that usually caught the woman off guard. The first kind of breast cancer is of the mammary gland and can be triggered by a worry or argument conflict with a spouse, child, mother or over the loss of the home. The second type of breast cancer is of the intraductal gland and can be set off by a separation or fear conflict from a spouse, child, mother or home. In life, the physical is just a manifestation of the mental, emotional and spiritual states. What one sees in their body is a product of their thoughts, emotions and beliefs.\nSo how can you heal breast cancer? By healing your entire life. Start first by learning how to let go of being dependent upon others. People are made to be with one another but to not be codependent upon each other. The only One we are to be codependent upon is our Family (Our Father in heaven, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit who lives within us teaching us, guiding us and empowering us to be who we really ARE, the sons and daughter of God). If worry, separation and fear are the biggest triggers of breast cancer, then you must begin to emotionally condition yourself to be able to live a life without a spouse, child, home or whatever else you are so attached to that will trigger a disease in the body if its lost. Always remember who your first Love IS! He will never leave you nor forsake you but always love you unconditionally. Loss does cause a grieving period but then that time should be finished and you should move on to the next chapter of your life. A person who is at peace with themselves (because they know who they ARE in Family of God) is a person who is healthy in many ways.\nPhysically, the way to heal is to get at least eight hours of sleep a night, preferably with four of those before midnight, and to eat a diet high in raw vegetables and fruits. Next is exercise; to move lymph fluid (where two thirds of the immune strength is found) and to increase oxygen levels in the body. Cancer cannot grow in high oxygen. Last but not least, is to live a life of reflection and meditation. Stilling yourself enough to be able to listen to the truth of what God is speaking into your heart.\nBreast cancer should not be something to fear but rather a call to go deeper in this journey called life. Instead of emotionally reacting, it should be a call to rise to the challenge that life has presented, a time to reevaluate each area of life and to seek where physical, mental, emotional and spiritual improvements can be made to make life better than it ever was. What appears to be the worst is really meant to become the best. What the world system means for evil, God will always turn around for your good if you just put Him first and foremost in your life and trust His Word, His Love and in this trust or faith step out with actions steps that are led by the Holy Spirit speaking to your heart. Faith without action is dead and you must always live by faith not by sight, sound, taste, touch or smell. The five senses only feed the mind. Love and Truth feed the heart, the spirit within you to live a life of faith and receive all the promises He gave you.",

        "raw_content": "Landmarks of New York City, USA (Photo via spyarm / iStock / Getty Images Plus)\nIn 2017, a staggering 1.3 billion tourists set foot in another country, a figure that represented a seven percent increase over the previous year.\nYet, as destinations such as Canada and the U.K. welcome tourists in droves, the U.S. is receiving fewer foreign visitors, according to a new report called \u201cHow the World Visits America: Exploring International Tourism to the United States.\u201d\nEven students around the world are shying away, with international enrollment at U.S. colleges and universities dropping four percent during the 2017-2018 school year, according to the same report.\nWith such statistics in mind, How the World Visits America delves into where travelers visiting the United States are coming from, what their motives are for making the journey and what parts of the country they are exploring.\nThe report also explores which nations tend to spend big on American soil or visit primarily for business, and which countries have taken a recent interest in America. To answer these questions, National Travel & Tourism Office data was examined.\nThe study found that English-speaking nations are major suppliers of tourists to America. More than six million UK residents, for instance, traveled to the U.S. between 2017 and the middle of 2018.\nHowever, Asian tourists also arrived in large numbers, with Japan, China and South Korea each ranking with the top five for total visitors, states the report.\nFrom China alone, the U.S. welcomed more than 4.3 million visitors, a figure that is likely to grow as more Chinese citizens obtain passports (only about seven percent currently have a passport, a number that is projected to grow substantially by 2030.)\nOverall, however, America\u2019s neighbors to the north and south supplied far more tourists than other countries.\nMore than 10 million people visited from Mexico during the period studied, while nearly 29 million travelers arrived from Canada.\n\u201cWhile some experts anticipated a Trump Slump resulting from recent trade tensions, Canadian tourism to the U.S. has remained relatively robust,\u201d states the report.\nConversely, tourism from Mexico has dropped substantially since 2016, a trend that could cost the U.S. more than a billion dollars per year according to some estimates.\nAdditional report highlights include that European tourists top the charts for international spending in the U.S.\u2014 accounting for $41.9 Billion in 2017.\nThe peak month for international travelers to the U.S., meanwhile, happens in August. (A month that also happens to be the cheapest to travel overseas, with average tickets coming in at about $498 per passenger.)\nNew York City welcomes the most international travelers on average annually at about 6.8 million, followed by Miami at 5.2 million and then Los Angeles at 4.6 million.\nRounding out the top five most popular cities for international visitors are San Francisco, with 2.2 million visitors and Honolulu, also attracting about 2.2 million visitors.\nPHOTO: The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California. (photo via ventdusud/iStock/Getty Images Plus)\nWhile many classic tourist destinations welcomed the greatest number of arrivals overall, certain alternative entry points enjoyed the greatest uptick in traffic, according to the report.\nIn San Jose, California, for example, international arrivals increased by nearly 121 percent between 2015 and 2017, a spike that the report attributes to the dramatic expansion of nonstop routes to and from foreign countries from Mineta San Jose International Airport.\nPHOTO: San Antonio, Texas skyline. (photo via SeanPavonePhoto/iStock/Getty Images Plus)\nBy contrast, San Antonio, Texas, saw international arrivals decline by a substantial 44 percent. This drop was attributed to the decreased flow of visitors from Mexico.\nNiagara Falls and Philadelphia also suffered substantial declines in international arrivals, welcoming about 25 percent fewer visitors.\nThe study also revealed that China is the source of more visitors on student visas than any other country, with 18.4 percent of student visas going to citizens from China. India comes in second on the student visa front, at 14.3 percent.\nFor more information on Japan, China, South Korea, New York City, Mexico",

        "raw_content": "Chittagong, Bangladesh (AP Photo/Pavel Rahman)\nIn Asia, it's already a killer summer, even if the season hasn't started yet. A week after China released its action plan on climate change (sans emissions caps), 76 people have died over a six-day period in China's southern and eastern provinces due to severe flooding, brought upon by heavy rains. The floods have forced more than 788,000 people from their homes, caused damage estimated at more than 2.9 billion yuan ($371 million) and affected over 300,000 hectares of crops. State media reported that the director of the country's National Meteorological Center, Jiao Meiyan, attributed the rainfall in part to \"global climate change.\" Meanwhile, a heat wave in India and Pakistan, where temperatures hovered at 50 degrees Celsius, has killed 340. In Bangladesh, heavy monsoon rains have killed 126.\nThe impact of climate change on developing nations in particular is like \"low-intensity biological or chemical warfare,\" said the Namibia representative at a recent meeting of the UN Security Council, secretary general Ban Ki Moon writes in a recent editorial. \"This is no academic exercise,\" the Namibian all but shouted. \"It is a matter of life or death for my country.\"\nAs Nicolas Stern's report reminded us last October, developing nations are feeling the brunt of a climate change that is being caused primarily by developed nations. That's because changes to the climate will tend to hit the poor hardest. And at the bottom of the pile--as Treehugger's Kenny Luna and the IUCN (World Conservation Union) reported recently--are children and women. Indeed, one chilling instance from the Bangladesh disaster, reported here by the Associated Press, bears this sad truth out.\nIt should also be mentioned that, elsewhere in this part of the world, Australia is recovering from serious flooding that has already cost the country A$200 million ($165 million)\u2014sadly ironic considering it's also suffering through its worst drought in history.\nA man inspects flood damage to his house in southeast China's Fujian province. (AFP)\nFlash flooding is a summer ritual in China (flooding and typhoons killed 2,704 people last year, the second-deadliest year on record after 1998, when flooding claimed 4,150 lives). But extreme rainfall is exacerbated by climate change, as is the impact of floods: Tibet's glaciers, the sources for China's crucial Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, are melting, leading to higher water levels and more flooding. That's one of the reasons for the Three Gorges Dam, part of which began operation this week. Soon, though, higher water levels will give way to drought.\nThat's worrisome for many reasons, considering that these rivers not only help provide for the richest agricultural regions of the country: in the next few years, the Yangtze is supposed to provide water, via the country's largest aqueduct, to Beijing up in the drought-ridden north.\nLast month, officials in Wuxi had to shut off water for 2 million residents after the famous Taihu Lake turned putrid due to the rapid growth of blue algae\u2014a result in part of unusual dryness in the area.\nAnd summer hasn't even started yet.\nSee also The Heat Wave is On.\nIn Asia, it's already a killer summer, even if the season hasn't started yet.

        "raw_content": "Spirit of Hope Urban Farm: Filling Food Pantries, Strengthening Communities in Detroit\nColleen Vanderlinden C_Vanderlinden\n\u00a9 Jonathan A. Berz\nIn the latest issue of Natural Home and Garden Magazine, Kelli B. Kavanaugh profiles one of Detroit's urban farms. The Spirit of Hope Urban Farm is located on the grounds of Spirit of Hope church, just two miles from downtown Detroit. It is a great example of what a small farm can do for a community, and provides plenty of lessons for those of us who grow in urban areas.\nThe garden's founder, Kathleen Devlin, asked the church's pastor if she could start an urban farm on the church's grounds which encompass over 12,000 square feet of growing area. He gave his blessing, and Devlin and other members of the community got to work. Today, the garden grows food for all of the volunteers, and still donates over 3,000 pounds of produce to local food banks.\nIn addition to providing food to local food banks, the garden works in close partnership with the church's preschool program. The kids work in the garden, and even grow miniature gardens themselves in milk crates. This oasis of green in the middle of the city provides the kids with plenty of learning opportunities, from growing and tasting new kinds of foods to interacting with the farm's resident ducks and turkey.\nSmart, Frugal Gardening Ideas\nBecause the Spirit of Hope farm, like many other community gardens in urban areas, had to deal with the possibility that they were gardening in contaminated soil, they knew that the safest solution would be to grow in raised beds. Buying wood or stone to frame raised beds can get pricey. So they used something you can find in abundance in any city in the country: tires. Each bed is bordered by old tires, set on edge, then filled with clean soil. A bonus: according to founder Kathleen Devlin, the tires absorb heat all day, and release it at night -- keeping the crops several degrees warmer than they normally would be!\nTo read more about Spirit of Hope urban farm, check out the complete article on Natural Home and Garden Magazine's web site.\nAn urban farm in Detroit feeds the community, educates children, and brings neighbors together.",

        "raw_content": "Four Actors Join Cast Of Syfy\u2019s Defiance\nLast month TVWise broke an in depth report on Syfy\u2019s upcoming series Defiance. At the time we also revealed profiles of several of the major characters. We can now reveal that Jamie Murray, Julie Benz, Stephanie Leonidas and Tony Curran have joined the cast of the series, with all four of them assuming roles that we initially told you about last month.\nPenned by Farscape creator Rockne S O\u2019Bannon, Defiance is Set in the near future and introduces a world where humans and aliens must learn to live together on an exotic new Earth that has been transformed by alien terra-forming machines. Bowler plays Jeb Nolan, the law keeper in a bustling frontier boomtown that is one of the new world\u2019s few oasis of civility and inclusion. Nolan is a former Marine who fought in the alien conflict and suffered the loss of his wife and child in the war. The trauma transformed him into a lone wanderer in the wilds of this new and dangerous world, bringing him to the town where his peacekeeping skills make him a valuable addition this new community. The dramatic tapestry of the series and the intense action of the game will exist in a single universe, evolving together over time to tell an overall story that is more powerful together. (For more detailed plot information on the series see our previous report)\nJamie Murray has been cast in the role of Stahma Tarr, Datak\u2019s faithful wife. This role was described as being very Lady Macbeth. Stahma is not satisfied with Datak\u2019s station in Defiance and feels he (and by extension, she) should have more power. She comes from old money and is very cunning and arrogant, with a sense of entitlement.\nJulie Benz has joined the series as Amanda Rosewater, the Mayor of Defiance. The character has been described as being in her 40\u2032s, Human and very sexy. A source likened her to the character of President Roslin from Battlestar Galactica.\nStephanie Leonidas will play Irisa, Nolans\u2019 deputy. She is an Irathient; one of the many alien species that populate Defiance.\nFinally, Tony Curran has been cast in the role of Datak Tarr. The right hand to Amanda, Datak\u2019s role could be likened to that of White House Chief of Staff. He is married to Stahma",

        "title": "T-Bone Walker | uDiscover",
        "raw_content": "Aaron Thibeaux \u201cT-Bone\u201d Walker is the daddy of the electric blues. One of the first to experiment with electric guitar solos and a master of Texas and Chicago, jump and West Coast blues, T-Bone was a natural genius and a wonderful musician, composer and bandleader whose stellar successes include \u201cCall It Stormy (But Tuesday\u2019s Just As Bad)\u201d, \u201cMean Old World\u201d and the Grammy Award winning 1970 disc Good Feelin\u2019, a major label smash for Polydor Records. T-Bone\u2019s stagecraft was always on a par with his playing. His stage antics, including flash guitar shape throwing and eccentric walks, bobs and weaves would be copied by everyone from Chuck Berry and Jimi Hendrix to Keith Richards and the ever-growing crop of heavy metal axe men, all of whom owe him a huge debt. Very much a modernist his influence is also heard and seen in the fine work of B.B. King, Albert King, Freddie King, Albert Collins and Clarence \u201cGatemouth\u201d Brown. Inducted into both the Blues and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame, Walker is simply one of the most significant musicians to emerge in any genre during the latter part of the 20th century. We\u2019d certainly urge anyone with an ear for the man to hunt down his lovely vinyl recordings, from any era, but we also point you towards a select array of compilations and originals. Serious blues fanatics will not want to stop there, his music is addictive, but The Very Best of T-Bone Walker, the comprehensive triple-CD set The Complete Capitol/Black & White Recordings and Blues Masters: The Very Best of T-Bone Walker are all essential listening. Just as au fait with jazz as blues and possessing a succinct style that is instantly recognized, Walker\u2019s legacy is vast. The late great Stevie Ray Vaughan was a huge fan and the new young guns like John Mayer are apt to sing his praises. Quite right too since this man invented a new electric guitar language, one with a hard urban edge and a free form solo expertise that continues to filter down into the music of today.\nAaron Thibeaux Walker was born in Linden, Texas in 1910 to African-American and Cherokee parentage. His mother and father were both musicians. His nickname was given him by his aunt (he\u2019d previously been known as T-Bow) and he grew up listening to 78rpm recordings by Bessie Smith (a vocal influence), Ida Cox, Leroy Carr and Lonnie Johnson. His golden era discs were cut for Rhumboogie Records and Black And White and composed \u201cCall It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just As Bad)\u201d sometime in the late 1940s. Many artists have since covered that song; though we favour the versions by Bobby \u2018Blue\u2019 Bland and The Allman Brothers since they encompass the pure soul and hard rock possibilities of the original. \u201cInspiration Blues\u201d, \u201cT-Bone Shuffle\u201d, \u201cGo Back To The One You Love\u201d, \u201cBobby Sox Blues\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m Still In Love With You\u201d are blues standards by any reckoning while \u201cWest Side Baby\u201d is another hugely influential piece that can be heard filtering through fellow Texan jazzers The Crusaders and thus through the fretwork brilliance of Larry Carlton, Elliot Randall and Phil Upchurch. With T-Bone it\u2019s all about phrasing and melody. His attacking runs and powerful rhythmic fall back are delightful to hear and his ability turn the guitar into a signature sound within an ensemble revolutionised the instrument for R&B, rock and roll and everything afterwards. Always a popular and revered draw in Europe, Walker was feted as a superstar by the British blues movement. He packed clubs and theatres across the Continent and was guaranteed a warm welcome in the UK\u2019s venues \u2013 the Hammersmith Odeon being one such haunt.\nA cream of the crop musician Walker worked in Los Angeles with the Les Hite orchestra and was backed up by Dave Bartholomew and band during his Imperial Records stint in the 1950s. The pity of it is that he didn\u2019t record nearly enough solo work although T Bone Blues did see the light of day on Atlantic Records in 1960. Success in his native land was aggravatingly sporadic. He made a splash at the American Folk Blues Festival of 1962 (a package show also featuring Willie Dixon and Memphis Slim) and eventually got some belated dues with the Grammy winning Good Feelin\u2019, recorded in Paris in 1968 and released two years later to significant acclaim. Soulful and elegiac T-Bone meshed perfectly with local musicians like the pianist Michel Sardaby and the Cameroonian saxophonist Manu Dibango with horns, organ and groove to spare. The funk drenched \u201cPoontang\u201d is a masterpiece and a foretaste of what could have been had he not been taken from us far too early in 1975 having endured a stroke brought about by a nasty automobile accident from which he never really recovered.\nAlthough his legacy for showmanship is undisputed (he was playing cheeky licks behind his back and with his teeth long before Mr. Hendrix) the serious side of his sound is far more important.\nIf you want to discover T-Bone properly you\u2019re going to be investing in plenty of hard earned to track down originals like Classics in Jazz (1954) or the magnificent Sings The Blues (1959). Those acquired then Get So Weary and Stormy Monday Blues (the 1968 album on Stateside) will grace your collection. Much easier to find now is The Truth, his other 1968 disc featuring \u201cLet Your Hair Down Baby\u201d and \u201cI Ain\u2019t Your Fool No More\u201d.\nGood Feelin\u2019, produced by Robin Hemingway, is the bees knees and is reissued with a great close-up of our hero, cans on, singing to mic. This is one of his fullest sounding works with \u201cWoman You Must Be Crazy\u201d giving him the chance and the room to let it sing and ring out. \u201cReconsider\u201d is another key contemporary track and his ballad side is given full rein during \u201cI Wonder Why\u201d and \u201cLong Lost Lover\u201d.\nLook out for Fly Walker Airlines and the late sessions that were compiled as Very Rare (1973). This all-star cast double features terrific guests: Larry Carlton, Dean Parks, Dizzy Gillespie, Garnett Brown, David T. Walker, Wilton Felder, Max Bennett, James Booker and producers Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller, amongst others. A tasteful mix of vintage R&B, slick New York pop (from Lieber & Stoller), gritty blues and sweet soul this is totally recommended for discovery. Like now?\nFor compilation enthusiasts the United Artists series Classics of Modern Blues (three volumes) covers vital ground. The Great Blues Vocals and Guitar of T-Bone Walker: His Original 1942-1947 Performances is wonderful while the handy Rare T-Bone collates ten essential cuts that are rare, never medium and always well done.\nBlue Note Records The Best Of The Black And White & Imperial Years is an electric guitar blues master class, including \u201cLife Is Too Short\u201d, \u201cCold Cold Feeling\u201d and the countrified \u201cAlimony Blues\u201d. All or any of these will get you through a stormy monday, and the rest of the week before you let your wig down and get stuck into some T-Bone Shuffle.\nHe is the man who B.B. King described upon hearing thus: \u201cI thought Jesus Himself had returned to Earth playing electric guitar.\u201d Ole T-Bone was a little more modest when asked about his influence. \u201cHmm, I came into this world a little too soon\u2026I\u2019d say that I was about 30 years before my time.\u201d And then some.\nT-Bone Walker \u2013 T-Bone Blues\nT-Bone Walker \u2013 Good Feelin'\nT-Bone Walker \u2013 The Complete Capitol / Black and White Recordings\nT-Bone Walker \u2013 The Complete Imperial Recordings",

        "title": "Betway Renew Belgian Croky Cup Partnership - ukbookmakers.info",
        "raw_content": "Sports betting and casino operator Betway has been firmly behind Belgian football over the last two seasons and one of the main focal points of their sponsorship platform is the Croky Cup. This is Belgium\u2019s biggest domestic knockout competition and one where Betway have been an intrinsic part for each of the last two years.\nThe partnership is clearly working well because, in a new announcement, it\u2019s been confirmed that Betway will continue as the title sponsor of the Croky Cup for the next three seasons.\nThe new deal in place will take Betway\u2019s sponsorship of the Croky Cup through to the end of the 2020/21 season. The operator already has a noticeable presence in the country through a partnership with RSC Anderlecht and the extension to the Cup deal can only build their brand awareness in the country.\nAnderlecht have yet to win the cup under Betway\u2019s stewardship, with the previous two editions going to Zulte Waregem and Standard Liege, but whoever lifts the trophy, everyone wins with this arrangement and the news has been met with enthusiasm on both sides.\nAnthony Werkman of Betway said:\nThe Croky Cup sponsorship worked very well for us in its opening two years and we\u2019re delighted to remain as the sponsor for the next three competitions.\nHaving introduced Betway to football supporters in Belgium with our first two years of sponsorship, a further three years as the tournament\u2019s official betting partner will hopefully lead to increased brand awareness and exposure in the region.\nCEO of the Belgian Pro League Pierre Francois added:\nThe Pro League, in charge of marketing the Belgian Cup, found in Betway a reliable betting partner and we are therefore pleased that they have agreed to an extension.\nIt\u2019s a great competition, which is characterised by the confrontation between professional clubs and amateur clubs and the possibility of upsets and underdog stories.\nSince regulations eased in terms of online betting back in 2016, Belgium has been seen as something of a growth area for operators but Betway have been quicker than most in terms of exploiting it. The backing of the country\u2019s main domestic cup competition means that their brand logo is clearly visible at all Croky games via pitchside advertising so they will seep into the consciousness of football fans who like a flutter.\nAll of this is on the back of their existing arrangement with RSC Anderlecht so they are in pole position to develop throughout Belgium.\nThe development is also a very positive one for the competition which has something of a chequered past. It was first held as the Belgian Cup back in 1911 but was quickly interrupted following the outbreak of the First World War.\nThe tournament didn\u2019t return until the 1926/27 season but it proved unpopular among certain clubs and was abandoned at certain points in its history. It wasn\u2019t until 1964 that it became a permanent fixture on the schedule and with the help of sponsors such as Betway and the crisp company Croky, it looks to be here to stay.",

Eyelashes begin to appear.\nYour baby's heart pumps 144 liters of blood a day, creating enough percussion to be heard faintly through a stethoscope. Your baby's skin is loose and wrinkled, without yet a layer of fat underneath.\nYour baby begins secreting vernix, the waxy coating that protects the skin from the amniotic fluid and cushions it against scratches from its own toes and fingers as it kicks and rolls. Newborns arrive coated in vernix, which is cleaned off immediately after delivery. Your baby's circulatory system is fully functional, as the umbilical cord thickens to carry liters of blood and nourishment daily from you to the baby.\nYour baby is approximately 10 inches long and weighs 12 ounces. Your baby moves around a lot, but you will just begin to feel faint movements called \"quickening\" and maybe some hiccups, small spasms or twitching in the lower abdomen. Your baby's brain is beginning to grow rapidly during this week. If the fetus is a girl, her uterus has completely formed. If a boy, his testes will begin to descend.

Photo by Bill Greenblatt/UPI | License Photo\nLuke Weaver's best start of the season came last month against the Philadelphia Phillies. Weaver will try to emulate that success Tuesday night as the Phillies face the St. Louis Cardinals in the middle of a three-game series at Citizens Bank Park.\nThe 24-year-old Weaver (4-6, 4.52 ERA) allowed just one run and four hits and notched six strikeouts in seven innings against the Phillies on May 17. Weaver has gone seven innings in just one of his 13 other starts this season.\nWeaver, who has a 3.00 ERA and 1.167 WHIP in two career starts against Philadelphia, struggled in both of his last two appearances. He allowed eight runs, 16 hits and six walks in the two outings (10 1/3 innings), including four runs and nine hits in 5 1/3 innings of his last game against the San Diego Padres.\n\"He used everything. Thought he had a real nice changeup, he was smart with the breaking ball,\" Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said of Weaver after his last start. \"But that last inning, there were a lot of hard hit balls.\"\nRELATED Padres return home to face Athletics\nWeaver has lost four straight decisions, a streak that dates to his previous start against the Phillies.\nVince Velasquez, who will oppose Weaver again on Tuesday, picked up the win in that game last month.\nVelasquez (5-7, 4.74) held the Cardinals scoreless for 6 1/3 innings and struck out five in a 6-2 Phillies win. He had a 6.30 ERA in four starts after that game, but the hard-throwing right-hander was dominant the last time he was on the mound.\nRELATED Red Sox, Twins begin series after getting a day off\nFacing the Colorado Rockies last Thursday, Velasquez carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning. He gave up just one hit and two runs before exiting after 6 2/3 innings and 105 pitches.\n\"I thought that was as confident as I've ever seen him,\" Phillies manager Gabe Kapler told MLB.com about Velasquez. \"But most notably for me was how comfortable he looked in his own skin today. It was a breath of fresh air, and I think when things aren't going that smoothly for him, if he can maintain that composure, maintain that easiness and maintain that confidence, that's when he's going to reach his true potential.\"\nVelasquez is 1-1 with a 3.65 ERA and 1.297 WHIP in two career starts against St. Louis.\nRELATED Tigers can reach .500 with win over Reds\nThe Phillies are going for their fourth straight win after getting an unlikely walk-off victory in the 10th inning Monday night. Aaron Altherr hit a game-winning, two-run double that bounced past a diving Marcell Ozuna in left field.\nPhiladelphia's 6-5 win came after its bullpen gave up two runs with two outs in the ninth inning and the go-ahead run on a Tommy Pham homer in the 10th.\n\"They came back in the ninth against us, but we still thought we could win this game,\" Altherr told NBC Sports Philadelphia after his heroics. \"It shows how resilient this team is. We never give up and always fight.\"\nThe Cardinals, meanwhile, have dropped six of their last eight games.",

        "title": "'A battery in every basement': How the lowly water heater could power the smart grid | Utility Dive",
        "raw_content": "'A battery in every basement': How the lowly water heater could power the smart grid\nA new coalition of co-ops, greens and DR boosters seeks to harness the power of a different sort of storage\nDuring the 1928 Presidential campaign, an ad for Herbert Hoover in the New York Times promised \u201ca chicken in every pot, and a car in every garage.\u201d\nGary Connett, director of member services at Great River Energy, has his own version: \u201cA battery in every basement, and gas in every garage.\u201d\nHe's talking about water heaters and electric vehicle charging stations, two appliances which can be harnessed by utilities to shift demand and store energy. And while electric vehicles remain a nascent technology, water heaters are ubiquitous. There are roughly 50 million electric water heaters in the country, and according to new research from Brattle Group, they make up an enormous potential energy resource that could save consumers up to $200 annually while allowing utilities better control over their load curves.\nThe Brattle report was completed on behalf of three groups \u2013 the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, Peak Load Management Alliance and Natural Resources Defense Council \u2013 and serves to kickstart a discussion on community storage initiatives the groups hope might operate similarly to popular community solar programs now under development. The report is titled \"The Hidden Battery: Opportunities in Electric Water Heating.\"\n\u201cThere's been talk of smart appliances for years, but somehow the water heater in the basement has been forgotten,\u201d Connett said. \u201cBut I would argue it may be the most important, most strategic appliance, because it's the only appliance today that has the ability to store energy.\u201d\nGreat River is a transmission and generation cooperative providing wholesale electric service to 28 Minnesota distribution cooperatives, and Connett said the utility has more than 1 GWh of energy storage in 110,000 electric water heaters currently under its control \u2013 each one storing 12 kWh to 14 kWh of energy.\nThe utility also controls about 167,000 air conditioners. \u201cI don't know another utility that can say that,\u201d Connett said. \u201cNearly a third of all air conditioners that great river serves are under our control.\u201d\n\u201cBeing largely residential, we want to take charge of our load curve,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd in order to do that, we have to do it one house at a time.\u201d\nCommunity storage\nIt seems new community solar projects are cropping up each week, and some see the potential for similarly-modeled storage programs \u2013 essentially the aggregation of fleets of residential appliances with energy storage capabilities. The NRECA-NRDC-PLMA work group is calling itself the National Community Storage Initiative, and hopes to focus attention on opportunities to develop national, regional and local markets for electric storage technologies.\n\u201cThe community storage initiative is an effort to harness the untapped storage capacity of common electrical appliances and products that are dispersed in communities throughout the country,\u201d said Keith Dennis, NRECA\u2019s senior principal for end-use solutions and standards. Water heaters, he said, are common devices that can assist with peak shaving, thermal storage and provide ancillary services.\n\u201cWe expect to have a diverse group of interests, and we are expecting innovation,\u201d he said. Other technologies which could work in aggregated, residential storage fleets include ceramic block heaters and community swimming pools.\nGreat River actually has about 15,500 ceramic block heaters on its system, and they could be used in the same manner. But \u201cthe beauty of water heating is it's a 12-month load. and it's a load everyone is going to have,\u201d Connett said, explaining the utility's focus. \u201cWhile we think electric thermal storage space heating is equally important, there are opportunities that water heating provides that go well beyond the heating season.\u201d\nIce storage is also \u201cvery promising,\u201d said Robin Roy, director of building energy efficiency and clean energy strategy at the NRDC. \u201cThe more we look, the more we'll find there are opportunities.\u201d He points out that water heating makes up about 14% of household energy costs and 18% of energy use, so \u201ceven modest improvements can deliver big benefits.\u201d\nLarge water heaters saved by 2015 energy legislation\nBut last year, water heating's potential as a demand management resource was uncertain. Congress was set to ban electric resistance water heaters with a storage capacity of over 55 gallons, which sent electric cooperatives scrambling.\nThe Steele-Waseca Cooperative Electric, in Minnesota, was one utility facing that scenario. The provider came up with an unusual promotion designed to move a backstock of the heaters out of storage and into residences before a ban went into effect: Give them away, when customers bought into a community solar program at a reduced price. The benefit to the utility was so high that giving the heaters away free made sense.\nCo-op officials said the program was break-even. Combining the discount on the solar panel with the $1,000 cost for the water heater amounts to customer savings of more than $2,000. But for Steele-Waseca, it meant greater control over about 20% of its total potential peak load.\nUltimately, the bipartisan Energy Efficiency Improvement Act of 2015 carved out an exemption for large water heaters being used in demand response programs. That was when their potential as dynamic storage assets came to the attention of NRDC. \"It was more novel for us,\" said Roy. But the technology is \"highly promising.\"\n\"This is an area ripe for development with large economic and environmental benefits,\" he said.\nThe benefits of smart water heaters\nWater heaters have been recognized for years as demand response resources, cycling off during peak times. But advancements in two-way control, smart meters and more efficient heaters means the potential benefits have grown to include frequency modulation and voltage support. Those ancillary services are important for demand management providers, because they allow smaller banks of resources to be aggregated into usable quantities of energy.\nConnett said Great River is experimenting with a fleet of 10 water heaters in northern Minnesota, that can provide ancillary services.\nThe result is that, depending on market conditions, Brattle's research shows consumer benefits from storage-enabled water heating could be as much as $200 annually.\n\u201cThis would effectively pay for the entire cost of the water heater and associated control equipment (including installation) in 5 years,\u201d Brattle found. \u201cConsidering only incremental costs of the advanced control capability, the payback period is around 3 years.\u201d\nThe report considered two types of water heaters: electric resistance water heaters (ERWHs), which use an element to directly heat water and maintain a desired temperature by turning on and off in short \u201cbursts\u201d of energy; and heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) which draw heat from the surrounding air to heat the water.\nBoth HPWHs and controlled ERWHs \"can have very strong positive economics, depending on market conditions,\" Brattle found. Controlled ERWHs \"provide the largest economic benefit on a per-water heater basis.\"\nThe environmental impacts are not as clear, however. For ERWH technology, Brattle said it will depend heavily on the water heating control strategy being considered and the composition of the generation supply mix of the power system.\n\"Generally, HPWHs provide the most consistent environmental benefit on a per-water heater basis through overall reductions in energy consumption, reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 50% relative to an uncontrolled ERWH in our analysis,\" the report concluded.\nFiled Under: Energy Storage Efficiency & Demand Response Technology\nTop image credit: Flicker use wdherron",

        "raw_content": "What to Expect During an MRI Scan for Multiple Sclerosis\nBrain & Nervous System Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis\nStep One: Be Prepared. Step Two: Relax\nAn MRI scan is the most important test for diagnosing and monitoring multiple sclerosis (MS). It's not a painful experience, but it can be a little strange\u2014and that can be stressful. Knowing what to expect will help make it easier to relax.\nYou will need to complete a questionnaire asking about any metal you might have in your body, such as screws, cochlear implants, and artificial joints.\nYou will be asked to take off anything metal, including jewelry and your bra (since most have metal clasps)\nYou may be allowed to leave your clothes on if there are no metal zippers, snaps, or buttons on them. Or you may need to change into a hospital gown.\nYou may have an IV inserted into a vein through which a contrast material called gadolinium will be administered later.\nYou may get a sedative if you're claustrophobic or very frightened about the MRI. This will need to be prescribed for you before you go in for the procedure, so be sure to ask your neurologist beforehand.\nYou may be given earplugs.\nWhen You Enter The MRI Scanning Room\nYou'll lie on the MRI table, a narrow pallet that slides out from the machine. You may be allowed to bring a loved one or friend into the room with you.\nIf you're cold, ask for a blanket.\nThe technician may ask if you'd like to listen to music during the scan. Don't hesitate to say yes, as music can help to drown out the noise of the MRI, which can be loud, and also help you relax.\nIf the MRI will be of your brain, your head will be positioned with cushioned pads to help keep it still, and a \u201csurface coil,\u201d which resembles a plastic cage, will be fitted around your head.\nOnce you are comfortable, the technician will slide the table you're lying on into the machine and then leave the room. However, he or she will constantly communicate with your through a microphone during your MRI. l\nDuring the MRI\nThe scan will consist of a series of sequences, each lasting between 20 seconds and three minutes. The technician will tell you how long each sequence will last before it starts.\nThe machine will make a loud banging or clanging sound for the duration of each sequence. You may feel some vibration. Between each sequence, there will be a short break of five to 10 seconds.\nIf gadolinium is being used, it will be injected into the IV a little over halfway through the MRI. It may feel cold or sting a bit, but just for a moment.\nHow long the MRI lasts will depend on what is being scanned\u2014the brain, the whole spine, parts of the spine, or everything and whether or not gadolinium is used. Depending on these factors, the test could be as short as 15 minutes or as long as 2 hours.\nAfter the MRI\nIf you were sedated, you will need someone to drive you home.\nIf you weren't sedated, you'll be able to move on with the rest of your day as normal.\nAsk for a copy of the images. This may come in handy if your doctor needs to compare MRI findings or if you ever seek a second opinion.\nUnderstanding Your MRI in Multiple Sclerosis\nTips to Keep You Calm During Your Next MRI Scan\nWhat Are Gadolinium Enhancing Lesions in Multiple Sclerosis?\n11 Tips for a Happy Holiday Season with Multiple Sclerosis",

        "title": "Fay Carter",
        "raw_content": "A wise leader who believes in a fair go for all\nFor more than 40 years, Aunty Fay Carter has dedicated herself to Victoria's Aboriginal community. In the proud tradition of self-determination, her work has helped strengthen families, reform welfare programs, and set the standard for Aboriginal aged care services.\nThe Yorta Yorta and Dja Dja Wurrung Elder was born at Echuca Hospital in 1935. Aboriginal women were not permitted in the maternity ward at the time, which meant Fay's mother, Iris Nelson, gave birth to her on the hospital's verandah.\nFay grew up on the outskirts of Mooroopna, in a settlement known as the Flats. Most of the Aboriginal families who resided there were formerly of the Cummeragunja Mission in New South Wales, including Fay's family. In 1939, they had left in protest against the mismanagement of the mission. The Cummeragunja walk-off, as it became known, was a landmark event in the history of the Aboriginal rights movement in Australia.\nAlthough they existed on the margins of society, Fay's relatives proved resourceful and resilient; they made the best of life on the Flats, despite constant hardships that included regular floods. Families supported one another, so Fay's early years were contented ones.\nWith seasonal farm work taking her mother away for extended periods of time, Fay spent much of her childhood in the care of her maternal grandmother, Priscilla Nelsen, n\u00e9e James. Fay's grandmother looked after 19 children, including Fay and her siblings. She was an influential figure during those formative years, imparting wisdom and life lessons that have guided Aunty Fay in later life.\nAfter attending the state school in Mooroopna, Fay went on to high school in Shepparton, and then Echuca, where she completed second form (year 8). Her first job was at the same hospital she had been born in. Employment at a local fruit shop followed \u2014 Fay is thought to be the first Aboriginal girl in Echuca to work in retail.\nIn 1954, at the age of 18 years, Fay married Leslie Carter. The couple went on to have two children, Wendy and Rodney. As well as raising her young family, Fay worked various jobs, and also ran a service station for a time. The family relocated to Melbourne in 1972.\nIn Melbourne, Fay became increasingly involved in Aboriginal affairs, motivated by the work of the community leaders who would become her mentors. In 1973, she successfully applied for a field officer role at the Aborigines Advancement League (AAL). At the same time, she returned to study, completing several courses including a welfare officer qualification and an Associate Diploma in Community Development.\nThe year 1982 saw Fay employed by the Victorian Department of Social Security as an Aboriginal Liaison Officer. She later returned to AAL as the Community Development and Welfare Program Co-ordinator, and spent several years as a committee member.\nOne of Aunty Fay's proudest and most recognised achievements has been her work at the Aboriginal Community Elders Service (ACES). Fay was among a resolute group of people, led by Aunty Iris Lovett\u2013Gardiner, who saw a need for culturally appropriate aged care services for Aboriginal Elders. Together they worked tirelessly to establish ACES, the first Aboriginal-controlled community organisation of its kind in Australia.\nFay helped lobby for the land and funding that allowed ACES to build a 'caring place' in East Brunswick. Opened in 1992, the centre provides a safe environment in which the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal Elders is supported. Fay went on to manage ACES for 16 years, during which time she overcame many challenges and funding shortfalls, even forgoing a salary when money was tight. Many attribute the continued success of ACES to Aunty Fay's perseverance and hard work. It is a legacy she dedicates to the Elders from whom she has drawn strength and inspiration.\nMany other organisations and committees have benefited from Aunty Fay's rational thinking and strength of spirit. She was a founding member of Australia's first Aboriginal women's refuge. During 11 years as a board member of the Victorian Aboriginal Child Care Agency (VACCA) \u2014 ten of which were spent as Chair \u2014 she helped draft and implement the Aboriginal Child Placement Principle, which governs the practice of child protection services in Victoria. Her work saw her recognised as a life member of VACCA in 1991.\nFrom 1974 to 1990, Fay was a member of the Victorian branch of the National Aborigines and Islander Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC), including five years as president. She completed two terms as an elected councillor on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission, and has served on the Austin Hospital Community Advisory Committee, the Kulin Nation Cultural Heritage Program, and the board of Worawa Aboriginal College.\nAlthough she formally retired at the age of 72 years, Aunty Fay's commitment to her community remains strong. She participated in eighteen months of intense negotiations with the Victorian Government to achieve a landmark native title settlement in 2013, which formally recognised the Dja Dja Wurrung people as the Traditional Owners of lands in central Victoria. As a result, approximately 266,532 hectares of Crown land has been handed back and support mechanisms for recognition and community development put in place.\nAunty Fay's resolve to find better outcomes for vulnerable families has led to an ongoing role in the Aboriginal Family Decision Making Program, a three-way partnership between the Victorian Department of Human Services, VACCA and an Elder from ACES. The program aims to keep young Aboriginal people safe and connected to their community.\nIn 2001, Aunty Fay received a Centenary Medal. She was inducted to the Victorian Honour Roll of Women in 2004 and made patron for VACCA'S Child Abuse Conference the same year. In 2013, she appeared in a campaign to launch the First Peoples exhibit at Melbourne Museum's Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre. She is happiest when with her five beloved grandchildren \u2014 Drew, Joshua, Natasha, Neane and Rodney Jnr \u2014 for whom she has immense pride.\nWhether through her work for government, or the community-run organisations she has served, Aunty Fay has always strived for the best outcomes for Aboriginal people. Many have lived healthier and more prosperous lives as a result.",

        "raw_content": "Dad of the Kid 'Spider-Man' Rescued from a Balcony Was Out Playing 'Pok\u00e9mon Go'\nGotta catch 'em all\u2014unless they're your toddler.\nScreengrab via Twitter user FredBC77\nOn Saturday, a Malian immigrant scaled an apartment building in Paris to rescue a toddler who was dangling from a fourth-floor balcony, becoming an overnight hero after footage of the incredible feat went viral. By Monday, the story had made international headlines and 22-year-old Mamoudou Gassama, dubbed the \"Spider-Man of Paris,\" had been offered French citizenship by President Emmanuel Macron. But one crucial question still hadn't been answered: How the hell did that kid wind up on the balcony in the first place?\nAccording to CNN, the toddler was left home alone while his dad was roaming the streets of Paris playing Pok\u00e9mon Go. Prosecutor Fran\u00e7ois Molins said the four-year-old's father had gone out shopping when\u2014on his way back from the store\u2014he apparently decided trying to catch a Bulbasaur or whatever was more important than, you know, making sure his toddler was safe. Meanwhile, the kid had fallen from their apartment on the sixth floor, managing to catch himself on the fourth-floor balcony before Gassama saved his life.\nMost of the world stopped playing Pok\u00e9mon Go back in 2016, just a few months after it got people into all kinds of terrible situations when it debuted that July. Players found themselves getting shot at, stabbed, falling into ponds, and traipsing through land mines all in the hopes of catching them all. But apparently not everyone was able to let the fad die out, and now it looks like the kid's father could be facing serious jail time\u2014up to two years behind bars and a $35,000 fine, the BBC reports.\nMeanwhile, French authorities have taken custody of the four-year-old while they interview his mother, who's reportedly moving to Paris in June to help raise him. Hopefully, like the rest of us, she's already given up on the mobile craze.",

        "raw_content": "Who served as governor of Louisiana for just five weeks?\nHe served in the Union Army during the Civil War.\nHe was initially a Republican but switched parties and became a Democrat.\nHe was lieutenant governor of Louisiana in 1872 when then-governor Henry C. Warmouth was impeached.\nAfter unsuccessful runs for the U.S. Senate and House, he worked as surveyor of customs for New Orleans.\nP.B.S. Pinchback (1837-1921)\nPinchback was born in Macon, Georgia on May 10, 1837. Although his mother had been a slave, by the time Pinchback was born she had been emancipated by Pinchback's father. Moving to Ohio with his mother, Pinchback attended high school in Cincinnati in 1847, but in 1848 he began working on riverboats, first as a cabin boy and then as a steward.\nAt the outbreak of the Civil War Pinchback went to Louisiana and in 1862 he enlisted in the Union Army. He soon began recruiting soldiers for an African American troop variously known as the Louisiana Native Guards and the Corps d'Afrique. Racial problems soon arose with the military hierarchy and Pinchback resigned his commission in protest.\nAfter the war Pinchback became active in Louisiana politics. He organized a Republican Club in 1867 and in 1868 was a delegate to a state constitutional convention. In that year he was also elected to the state senate and in 1871 he became president pro tem of that body. He soon became lieutenant governor of Louisiana through the line of succession. For five weeks in late 1872 and early 1873 Pinchback was governor of Louisiana while the elected official underwent impeachment proceedings. In 1872 and 1873 Pinchback was elected to the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives. He was refused seating both times when the elections were contested and ruled in favor of his Democratic opponent. He did, however, receive what would have been his salary as an elected official.\nIn 1877 Pinchback switched his allegiance to the Democratic Party and in 1882 was appointed surveyor of customs for New Orleans. In 1887 he began attending law school at Straight University in New Orleans and was later admitted to the bar. In 1890 Pinchback moved to Washington, D.C., where he died December 21, 1921.\nNext Fact >",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u203a Perfection Versus Shipping\nPerfection Versus Shipping\nMy fellow VO artist Gary Terzza has posted an awesome article on his blog about something I see as a crisis in our business.\nAnd it\u2019s one that can be addressed, but it\u2019s going to take some personal energy.\nBut if you suffer from it (and you probably do), you can fix it.\nHis article is called Perfection Is Killing Your Voice Over Work.\nThis is one of the biggest challenges artists face \u2013 I see it all the time, and try to help them fight it at every turn.\nSomebody very smart once said \u201cDon\u2019t let perfection get in the way of shipping the product.\u201d\nAnd all our lives, artists are told how special they are \u2013 and to help perpetuate this myth, they feel the need to execute again and again, making things \u201cdifferent\u201d and \u201cbetter.\u201d\nHopefully, we\u2019ll all learn to get over ourselves and simply tell our stories.\nTake a cue from Clint Eastwood, who rarely films the scenes he directs more than once or twice (industry average: 4-7). He works with pros (like you) and expects you to get it \u201cright enough\u201d the first time, and only use any successive takes for technical quality.\nThere\u2019s a famous interaction that Matt Damon shared with David Letterman about his first scene in the film Invicta \u2013 where director Eastwood rolled, was happy with the first take, and said, \u201cLet\u2019s move on.\u201d Damon was like, \u201cWait, wait\u2026I want to do this again \u2013 I want to get it right for you, and I\u2019ve got a bunch of options,\u201d and Eastwood said \u201cWhy? So you can make us all wait? Moving on.\u201d Eastwood had gotten what he wanted, but it shows even Matt Damon can doubt the excellence he delivers.\nI want you to consider the fact that you\u2019re a working pro, far ahead of students, newbies, amateurs and others who every well might need several takes, just to find the ballpark, let alone hit it out. You\u2019ve moved to a different place. Try not to fall prey to the temptation to do a bunch of takes and then frankenstein together a finished audition from all that.\nGive yourself the permission to occupy that status. Enjoy your skill. Remember that you are working toward having so busy and profitable a schedule that you NEED to be efficient. And trust your instincts when you\u2019re performing.\nDo you find yourself doubting your first takes? Do find it difficult to imagine that you just might have the talent to do it well right off the bat? Let me know in the comments below.\nDon\u2019t Engage in Accent Reduction \u2013 Instead, Accent Addition\n13 Responses to Perfection Versus Shipping\nMemo Sauceda May 13, 2014 at 5:53 am #\nI saw that interview! And the way I remember it is Clint saying:\n\u201cWhy? So you can waste everybody\u2019s time?\u201d\nDave Airozo May 13, 2014 at 6:32 am #\nSo true, the harder I try even after a couple of takes, the further I get away from what was a good take. Didn\u2019t like this or I didn\u2019t like that, before you know it I\u2019ve picked that take to death. Stop, go back to that first take and what do you know, it\u2019s a miracle.\nFantastic thoughts here. Thanks!\nStu Norfleet May 13, 2014 at 6:41 am #\nWOW! The ATTEMPT at perfection is such a double edged sword, and it makes me bleed constantly. You are so correct\u2026it really becomes a burden after a while and truly slows me down more than I want to admit. Where is the \u201cline?\u201d\nDavid H. Lawrence XVII May 13, 2014 at 7:17 am #\nIt varies, but it begins by getting out of your own way, and being happy with an audition that is \u201cgood enough.\u201d \u201cGood enough\u201d is usually amazing when your level of expertise is high \u2013 and most readers here are either there or on their way. It can be hard to transition into being completely confident in your ability to make strong, interesting, brand-specific and story-serving choices. This is all giving me an idea for a new class. :-)\nRhavin McSweaney May 13, 2014 at 11:58 am #\nThis was very helpful. Thanks David!\nTodd Cattell May 13, 2014 at 5:02 pm #\nAbsolutely David. As a wise artist once said, \u201cPerfection is the enemy of progress.\u201d\nLawrence Wallison May 13, 2014 at 8:22 pm #\nDuring a commercial class at Megan Foley Casting some years back, instructor Chuck Mara sensed I was agonizing trying to get a take done perfectly.\nChuck\u2019s direction: \u201cThe client doesn\u2019t want it perfect. They want it human.\u201d\nJohn Kissinger February 12, 2017 at 5:51 am #\nBrilliant reminder, David! One that bears repeating endlessly.\nAt my \u201cother job\u201d (the one that still pays the bills), I\u2019ve had two very different leaders, both highly respected in their fields, remind me of this lesson in their own inimitable ways over the years.\nThe first used to say, \u201cDon\u2019t miss great while you\u2019re chasing perfect.\u201d\nThe second said, \u201cDone beats good, every time.\u201d\nThe second one is perhaps the most provocative and the bitterest pill to swallow, but perhaps the most important one to remember where our busy, stressed-out, time-pressed clients are concerned.\nElena Smith February 12, 2017 at 6:14 am #\nThank you for your help and understanding David. This will help me in the future.\nMaureen Carlstrom February 12, 2017 at 8:10 am #\nAfter 24 audiobooks, I\u2019m STILL doing this. Albeit not as much, but still way more than I want to. One of the hardest habits to break. Thank you for this pep talk, David. As always, you\u2019re amazing :)\nLinda LongCrane February 12, 2017 at 5:50 pm #\nThat was a terrific reminder!!

There is an absolute ton here and they dominate instagram so much that we cannot even compete.\nWe have thought about renting it out to someone, that is an option, but from what i have found that would only bring in 50-100 dollars a month at best.\nSelling it is also another option. He has had several offers, one being of 40,000 dollars.\nAny ideas? What would you do say if you owned Seattle.com for example (that isnt the actual domain btw).\nI am thinking whatever we do it needs to be viral, and have its own niche to rise above the noise.

Consider if the city requires and has plans already funded to upscale the infrastructure such as transportation, education institutes, etc. and prepare to integrate those activities into your business fold.\nIt is also advisable to approach the city authorities with a plan that will improve the negative aspects of large populations such as support and donations for homeless shelters, health care, etc. The plan is make the cities small business and large businesses accessible to the entire population such as law enforcement, religious institutes, etc.\nAlso important to the success of the website is to employ a spokes person with a staff to handle public relations. That can be done sooner or later depending on other things.\nThe above is just a small summary of what we have learned and there can also be legal ramifications bad and good.

You're creating a platform that could promote these businesses and in return be promoted by these businesses.\nAside from that, anyone can 'compete' on Instagram with the right strategy.\nYou might consider \"renting\" the domain name to real estate or travel industry firms.\nLets see ... good websites usually sell for somewhere between 1.5 and 2.5 times the annual profit they generate. We'll go somewhere in between and say two times in this case. So, you would need to monetize this blog to the point where it was making more than $20,000 per year profit in order to have it make sense to keep it and do something with it (or a little under $1,700/month)\nThat's whole lot of affiliate commissions or banner ads for what amounts to just a local site and who knows how many years it would take to get to that point? For someone who already knows exactly what to do with it and has pieces in place already, it would probably be a great deal at $40,000. Since you really have no clue what to do with it and have no commission/advertisers already lined up, I'm leaning toward \"take the money and run!\"\nAs an example, a website like this one is what you would have to build.

        "title": "After Detroit bankruptcy filing, city retirees on edge as they face pension cuts - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "After Detroit bankruptcy filing, city retirees on edge as they face pension cuts\nDetroit by the numbers\nOn July 18, Detroit became the biggest U.S. city to file for bankruptcy, with an estimated $19 billion in debt. Here\u2019s a look at some staggering facts about Motor City\u2019s population, unemployment rate and more. The data come from a June report called \u201cProposals for Creditors.\u201d\n684,799 The number of people living in Detroit in December 2012. In June 2000, the population was 951,270. The population was 1.8 million in June 1950. Fabrizio Costantini/Bloomberg\nDETROIT \u2014 The battle over the future of Detroit is set to begin this week in federal court, where government leaders will square off against retirees in a colossal debate over what the city owes to a prior generation of residents as it tries to rebuild for the next.\nSoon after Detroit emergency manager Kevyn D. Orr and Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (R) approved a bankruptcy filing Thursday, groups representing the 20,000 retirees reliant on city pensions successfully petitioned a county court to effectively freeze the bankruptcy process.\nNow, city and state officials, who say the court ruling will not affect their plans, are asking a federal judge to hold hearings early this week to validate the bankruptcy and move forward with a strategy for Detroit to discharge much of its estimated $19 billion debt.\nOrr has promised that retired city workers, police officers and firefighters will not see pensions or health benefits reduced for at least six months. But on Sunday, he said those retirement benefits will have to be cut down the road.\n\u201cThere are going to be some adjustments,\u201d Orr said on \u201cFox News Sunday.\u201d \u201c.\u2009.\u2009. We don\u2019t have a choice.\u201d\n\u201cThis is a question of necessity,\u201d he added.\nBut the prospect of cuts has sent a deep wave of fear over Detroit\u2019s retirees, who like many in the city are skeptical of Orr, a corporate lawyer who previously worked in the District, and Snyder, a Republican unpopular in this deeply Democratic city.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a nightmare for all of us,\u201d said Shirley Lightsey, president of the Detroit Retired City Employees Association. \u201cWe don\u2019t have that many people with pensions big enough for anything to be taken away from them.\u201d\nOf Detroit\u2019s overall debt, about half \u2014 $9.2 billion \u2014 represents pension and health benefits that the city has promised retirees but that it now says it does not have enough money to fully pay. The lion\u2019s share of the remaining debt is owed to bondholders.\nOrr has discussed a range of steps the city could take to pay off its debts, and some have speculated that they could include selling Detroit\u2019s international airport and valuable collections from the Detroit Institute of Arts. For current workers, he has proposed stopping pension contributions and shifting employees to individual retirement savings accounts.\nBut no part of the bankruptcy process is stirring as many passions as the potential need to slice pensions and benefits for retirees. Small cities that have filed for bankruptcy protection in recent years have significantly cut retirees\u2019 benefits.\nHarry Harper, who lives in northeast Detroit and retired in 2003 from the city\u2019s Water and Sewerage Department after 30 years of service, said talk of benefit cuts is making him very anxious.\nThe decline of Detroit.\n\u201cI feel very vulnerable. I don\u2019t feel we have any protection,\u201d said Harper, 61, who receives $2,100 a month in pension payments. \u201cI thought that at 30 years, you earned a pension that was accrued and you did not have to have a concern about that.\u201d\nRetirees such as Harper say that living in Detroit on a fixed pension is tough since public transit has been cut back and fuel prices have been going up. Michigan\u2019s gasoline prices are among the highest in the country.\n\u201cI\u2019m currently living check to check,\u201d Harper said. \u201cEvery time I get in my car, the first stop I\u2019m making is at a gas station because of my cash flow.\u201d\nJeanette Fitz, who retired after 35 years working in accounting for the city government, said she fears that a cut to her pension or medical coverage will be devastating.\nFitz said that she pays more than $100 a month for a half-dozen medications and that much of what remains from her pension payments goes toward her housing and other necessities.\n\u201cIf they cut it, I\u2019m not going to be able to pay my rent,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m not going to have money. I\u2019m going to be homeless. I\u2019m going to be living out of my car, I guess.\u201d\nOn Sunday, Orr and Snyder said that they empathize with the fears of retirees but added that the city had ignored its problems for too long and that now there is no choice but to limit pension payments.\n\u201cYou get honest about it to start with,\u201d Snyder said on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d \u201c.\u2009.\u2009. In many cases for the last 60 years, people have ignored the realities of the situation. We\u2019re being real now.\u201d\nDetroit Mayor Dave Bing said on ABC\u2019s \u201cThis Week With George Stephanopoulos\u201d that one option not on the table is a federal bailout. \u201cI think it\u2019s very difficult right now to ask directly for support,\u201d he said.\nTechnically, the dispute between the retirees and government leaders is about math \u2014 how to calculate how much of the pension system is not properly funded. But that is an unsettled area of accounting, and both sides are able to marshal expertise in their favor.\nMore fundamentally, though, the question facing Detroit is how much of its remaining financial resources it will use to repay bondholders who will be needed to lend money to the city in the future, to invest in the city\u2019s basic services and to hold fast to promises made to retirees.\n\u201cUltimately, it\u2019s going to come down to a finite ability to pay,\u201d said Brian O\u2019Keefe, a lawyer who represents retired city workers, police officers and firefighters. \u201cWe just simply believe that we must honor our obligation to pensioners who spent their entire lives working for the city.\u201d\nDetroit\u2019s financial and demographic decline will make that difficult, some experts note. The dramatic population slide the city has experienced over the past decade has hit municipal government hard.\nIn 2004, for instance, there was an even ratio of city workers to pensioners, but now there are six retirees for every four workers, according to a recent report by Orr.\nOrr also has cast significant doubt on the calculations the pension systems have used to determine whether they have enough funding to meet obligations, noting that individuals involved in the pension system have recently faced criminal charges.",

        "raw_content": "D.C. plans probe of Ballou High School following report questioning standards\nD.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser launched an investigation Wednesday into allegations that some students who were chronically absent and others who could scarcely read and write were allowed to graduate from Ballou Senior High School in Southeast Washington.\nThe D.C. Council also announced that following the accusations, it plans to hold a hearing to investigate graduation rates in the city.\nAt a midday news conference, Bowser and D.C. Public Schools Chancellor Antwan Wilson said they are taking the allegations seriously but stood by Ballou \u2014 a historically low-performing high school that has been touted for its seemingly rapid improvements in recent years \u2014 and its principal.\n\"We think these are extremely important and concerning allegations,\" Wilson said. \"At this point, to be honest with you, I don't know what mistakes were made at Ballou.\"\nThe allegations surfaced in an article published Tuesday by WAMU and NPR that said that the school gave diplomas to seniors who did not meet graduation requirements and that administrators pressured teachers to pass students.\nThe article portrayed an environment of dysfunction at the high school, reporting that students were irresponsibly pushed toward graduation, which left them unprepared for college and the workforce.\nBowser and Wilson did not provide specifics of what the review will entail, but they indicated it would look at citywide graduation policies and whether teachers and leaders at Ballou adhered to graduation standards.\nBowser said there will be two investigations \u2014 one led by the Office of the State Superintendent of Education that will be completed within 45 days and the second spearheaded by two deputy chancellors, who will begin reviewing all D.C. schools starting immediately.\nWilson said he wants to determine how pervasive these issues are at Ballou.\nAccording to Bowser, the citywide investigation will look into adherence to attendance and graduation policies throughout the District.\nThe review will explore whether the District should \"make [the policies] clearer for all parties involved \u2014 teachers, principals and parents \u2014 and more transparent.\"\nThe WAMU account marked a sharp departure from the laudatory headlines Ballou received earlier this year, when each of its 190 senior students, who are overwhelmingly black and from low-income backgrounds, applied to college and were accepted.\n[Entire senior class at D.C.\u2019s Ballou High School applies to college.]\nBowser and Wilson did not challenge the conclusions of the WAMU article, although they said there are other indicators \u2014 including improved standardized test scores \u2014 suggesting that the school is successful.\nWilson said he had been impressed with Ballou's principal, Yetunde Reeves, and her work during school visits and that he intends to keep her in her post.\nThe school posted a graduation rate of 64\u2009percent in 2017, up from 50\u2009percent in 2012. The school also showed steady improvement on its Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) scores, a standardized test.\nTest scores from 2016 showed that 8\u2009percent of students met or approached meeting standards in math and that 9\u2009percent met or approached standards in English.\nIn 2017, those numbers increased to 10\u2009percent in math and 22\u2009percent in English.\nStill, those results fell well below the average scores for the District, with 51\u2009percent of students meeting or approaching meeting standards in math and 53\u2009percent in English.\n\"I personally believe Principal Reeves should be renewed based on my visits with the school,\" Wilson said. He added that he has no \"evidence that it's true\" that students graduated unable to read or write.\n[Graduation rates for D.C. Public Schools rise to record highs, again]\nLow-performing schools, such as Anacostia and H.D. Woodson high schools, recorded impressive graduation gains in 2017. Anacostia had a 17\u2009percent increase in its graduation rate between 2016 and 2017.\n\"We will thoroughly review our policies related to attendance, graduation and credit recovery,\" Bowser said.\n\"I have directed our Office of the State Superintendent of Education, which is our state education agency, to review those policies and compliance with those policies and turn around a report to us in the next 45 days.\"\nCouncil member David Grosso (I-At Large), who chairs the D.C. Council's education committee, said the panel will hold a public oversight hearing Dec. 15.\n\"I am deeply disappointed to hear reports alleging that students at Ballou High School were not eligible for graduation but still received a diploma,\" Grosso said in a statement.\n\"If students are able to graduate school in light of chronic absenteeism and without producing the appropriate work product, then we are not fulfilling our mission to put them in the best position to succeed in life.\"\nThe WAMU-NPR report found that a majority of Ballou's 2017 graduating class missed more than six weeks of school. D.C. school policy dictates that students will fail a class if they are absent 30 times.\nEducators interviewed by WAMU said that teachers were pressured to pass students and that students were aware that expectations weren't high for receiving a diploma.\nThe school system does not expect to rescind any diplomas, regardless of the outcome of the review, Wilson said.\nThe chancellor encouraged students and teachers who are concerned about the allegations to reach out to the school system. He also said no teacher should feel pressured to pass students and they should speak up if they do.\n\"The grade that they give students, I do not expect it to be anything other than what they earn,\" Wilson said.\n\"That's extremely important.\"",

(AP) - A federal judge approved a $4.5 million settlement between an upstate New York school district and five Jewish students who say they endured years of abuse by classmates who made Holocaust jokes toward them and drew swastikas in hallways and lockers.\nOne of the five current and former students who testified at a hearing Thursday when the settlement was approved held back sobs as she described becoming suicidal after repeated acts of anti-Semitic bullying.\n\u201cI will never be able to get those years of my childhood back,\u201d the 17-year-old said, according to the New York Times. \u201cI used to be an outgoing kid who wasn\u2019t afraid to talk to people and make new friends.\u201d\nThe lawsuit accused Pine Bush Central School District officials of failing to take action to protect the students from anti-Semitic bullying for years. The students said they were subjected to racial epithets, Nazi salutes and other forms of intimidation.\nAs part of the settlement, the district must conduct mandatory training for faculty and staff on recognizing anti-Semitic harassment. It must also implement an anti-bullying curriculum.\nThe students will receive two-thirds of the payout. The rest will go to attorney\u2019s fees.\nThe district, in a rural area about 90 miles north of New York City, has indicated it will sue its insurer, which denied coverage for the case.\n\u201cAnti-Semitic harassment is wrong,\u201d the school district and plaintiffs said in a joint statement posted on the Pine Bush website after the settlement was announced last month. \u201cThe district will never condone anti-Semitic slurs or graffiti, Holocaust \u2018jokes\u2019 or physical violence. No family should have to experience the hurt and pain that bullying and name-calling can cause children to endure because of their religious, national or cultural identity.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Summer of New Experiences\nThis week's blog was written by Craig Campbell our Summer 2011 Intern. Craig has been helping at a few organizations to support their staff to successfully include children and youth with disabilities. The summer of 2011 has provided me the opportunity to work in a field that I have not previously had much experience with.\nSome things I have done and some places I have been on site this summer: Training Sessions: Myself, Allison, and Hyun have done a lot of training sessions over the course of just about a month and there was so much that I learned by working with them and the audiences we presented to. The ideas that these groups had, whether big or small, were all very creative and I feel like every time we left I learned something new about inclusion and working with people with disabilities.\nBoys & Girls Club Kalamazoo: I have had the opportunity of working at the BGC for a majority of the summer and I have worked with some very fun and interesting people and members. I have helped out with their Summer Arts Academy, Drop-in, and their recent annual trip to South Haven. What the staff there does day in and day out to be there for their members and their families is nothing short of amazing. The BGC members have the opportunity to go to a place where they can hang out with children of all ages and stay out of trouble. The BGC is a true asset to the Kalamazoo community.\nThe Nature Center Kalamazoo: Though only for a week, I assisted the Nature Center during one of their many camps. I had never been to the Nature Center previously and I have learned a lot about what it is they do and how they teach children about nature and being environmentally responsible. The opportunity that these children have in attending camps here is something I wish I could have experienced as a child.\n\u2190 Volunteer RecognitionFeaturing Josh Stephens \u2192",

        "raw_content": "More on Habits\nOK, so you've made your list and you've identified a couple habits you want to kick, and a couple you want to start. Maybe you're asking yourself, \"Now what?\" To start, pat yourself on the back for thinking about it at all, and then take a little time to think about the sources of your bad habits. You know they're bad and you try to resist that snooze button/cigarette/extra scoop of ice cream, but some for some reason, continue to indulge.\nJames Clear wrote a great article about where habits come from and why it's hard to replace them. He says, \"You don't eliminate a bad habit, you replace it. Most of your bad habits are caused by two things...stress and boredom. Everything from biting your nails to overspending on a shopping spree...can be a simple response to stress and boredom...Bad habits address certain needs in your life and for that reason, you need to replace them with habits that satisfy that same need.\"\nNow\u2019s the time to think about that healthy habit you\u2019d like to replace the bad habit with. Next time you get bored or stressed and want that cigarette, or that extra sweet, why not make yourself take a 10 minute walk first. Doing this does two things:\nIt gives you some much needed exercise (albeit light exercise) and releases endorphins that help make you feel happier and less stressed.\nIt takes your mind off the thing you\u2019re wanting.\nThe hope is that after your walk you\u2019ll either be distracted from the nasty habit or you\u2019ll feel good enough that you don\u2019t need to rely as much on superficial stress relievers.\nMaybe instead of walking, you practice breathing exercises, or call a friend who\u2019s providing you with some gentle accountability, or maybe you just even close your eyes for five minutes and think about something else. Whatever it is, just stick to it for a couple weeks and see if you don\u2019t notice even minor changes in habits and behaviors.\nNo matter what, remember that the most important part of this is being gentle with yourself. The best way to sabotage a wellness plan is to put too much pressure on ourselves, so make a promise to yourself, right now, that you\u2019re not going to become your own worst enemy. Good luck!\nDon\u2019t forget\u2014Ladies Gun Club at Carrier Park bright and early. See you at 7! AND it's bring your dude Friday.

        "raw_content": "Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts (ACCA), the arts centre at the University of Sussex, is promising wide-ranging entertainment in its new spring season.\nLed by creative director Laura McDermott, the season is a curated selection of performance, music, a new regular cinema strand, discussion and debate, presented in collaboration with academics at University of Sussex and cultural partners from across Brighton & Hove, including a collaboration with Brighton Fringe for the first time this May.\nLaura said: \u201cResonating with the current moment in UK domestic politics, throughout the season multiple artworks deal with the notion of nation from different perspectives and consider how political and economic decisions impact people\u2019s personal lives and sense of self.\n\u201cOntroerend Goed, Theatre Royal Plymouth, Richard Jordan Productions and Vooruit Kunstcentrum present \u00a3\u00a5\u20ac$ (LIES) (March 13-15), in a casino-esque set and environment, this interactive theatrical experience which invites to you get under the skin of the super rich, the one per cent who pull the strings at the heart of the global economic system. Trading as a fictional country, audiences can gamble, in fictional trading markets.\n\u201cFurther performances from international theatre makers this season include China Plate & Staatstheatre Mainz\u2019s - Status, written by Chris Thorpe and directed by Rachel Chavkin. This new show from a multi Fringe First winning team tells the story of a globe spanning journey (from London to a rooftop bar of a Shanghai hotel, via the Mojave desert) taken by a man who doesn\u2019t want his nationality any more (April 9).\n\u201cA further event - performingborders: LIVE (March 19) - also focuses on the exploration of personal, cultural and physical borders with UK-based artists and curators. The evening, programmed to coincide with One World Week at University of Sussex, will feature Nobel Peace Prize Photographer Sim Chi Yin in conversation with Annie Jael Kwan from Asia-Art-Activism.\n\u201cAn exciting new addition to ACCA\u2019s programme for spring 2019 will be a new strand of weekly events for film and visual culture fans: ACCA\u2019s Cinema Club. Programmed by ACCA and Brighton based independent film curators, the first season of films will consider ideas around national identity and culture, land, borders, movement and migration. Films by names such as Ai Weiwei, M.I.A and Chantal Akerman will be nestled within a season of global cinematic gems. Cinema Club will also include wrap around talks, DJ sets, and a special afternoon Sunday brunch offer in ACCA\u2019s caf\u00e9 bar. (Sundays from February 17-April 14).\n\u201cACCA are pleased to have co-commissioned (along with Battersea Arts Centre and Arts Centre Melbourne) the first new solo work by Bryony Kimmings for over a decade \u2013 I\u2019m a Phoenix, Bitch. The Brighton dates (May 3-7) are the first dates for this award-winning show outside London, following huge critical acclaim and five-star reviews. Combining personal stories with epic film, soundscapes and ethereal music, Bryony creates a powerful, dark and joyful work about motherhood, heartbreak and finding inner strength. I\u2019m a Phoenix, Bitch will be a headline show in the opening weekend of Brighton Fringe 2019, and marks the first time that Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts has been a Brighton Fringe collaborator and host venue.\n\u201cACCA are also pleased to be working again this season in partnership with The Marlborough Theatre, bringing FK Alexander\u2019s VIOLENCE (March 7) to Sussex for the first time. VIOLENCE is a new performance art piece and a meditation on the cruelty of love, the weight of loneliness, the gift of desperation, the freedom of anxiety, the chrysalis of hopelessness, and the power of dreams. This performance is part of The Marlborough\u2019s mini-season called Radical Softness, exploring notions of care, healing and openness as forms of strength.\n\u201cTwo contemporary music gigs take place this Spring, organised by ACCA associate music programmer Laura Ducceschi. Brighton-based artist Poppy Ackroyd will perform an intimate show on her Resolve (released by One Little Indian) album tour on February 22. She will perform using ACCA\u2019s Steinway piano and the show will feature bespoke synchronised visuals by Tom Newell. Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts will host the inaugural date on Apparat\u2019s first UK tour since 2013 in Brighton on April 26.\n\u201cWorking with academics at the University of Sussex is always a key part of ACCA\u2019s programme. Opening ACCA\u2019s season is Viriditas: The Music and Life of Hildegard von Bingen, a festival curated by Dr Alice Eldridge (Music, Film & Media). Later in the season, Andrew Duff (Music, Film & Media), presents Brighton Modular Festival, three days of music, synths and a chance to mingle with like-minded modular synth enthusiasts (July 19-21).\n\u201cACCA is proud to name Brighton People\u2019s Theatre as an associate company and to support them in in 2019. The year-long programme of workshops, masterclasses and theatre clubs aims to demonstrate an appetite for a permanent people\u2019s theatre in the city, and will seek to work with at least 100 local residents who are not currently engaged with arts provision in the city. All activities are offered on a Pay-What-You-Can basis.\n\u201cIn May, and for the fourth year, ACCA will collaborate with Brighton Festival, to co-present a series of performances.\u201d\nUK Choir Festival comes to Chichester for the first time\nLaura added: \u201cOur programme aims to create a space for critical reflection within a complex world. Especially in turbulent political times, we can learn by looking to the past, or by taking an international perspective. There are stories and experiences from all over the world represented in our programme of performances, films and talks. Many events are accompanied by additional insight from academics working here at University of Sussex.\u201d",

It\u2019s time to pack in the festivals, concerts and art excursions to make the most of the sunny days we have left. So, on the travel team here at WGSN, we rounded up some cool stateside spots where you can enjoy 15 inspiring galleries and museums in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts and beyond\u2026 for a healthy dose of fresh air, sunshine and your seasonal culture fix.\nOffering a glimpse into the lives of Jackson Pollock and his wife Lee Krasner, this farmhouse was the artists\u2019 home and commemorates their retrospective careers.

The Virgin Valley Unit lies in an alluvial apron just downstream from the Butte Creek canyon, and the Canyon Unit lies within the canyon itself. The reserve supports various riparian community types, including Great Valley Oak and Great Valley Cottonwood Riparian Forests. Wildlife species that can be seen at the reserve include wintering bald eagles, western pond turtle, red-legged frog, deer, coyote, bobcat, beaver, ash-throated flycatcher, yellow warbler, and western bluebird.\nFor more information, call the North Central Region Rancho Cordova office at (916) 358-2900.\nActivities: Hiking, birdwatching, and wildlife viewing. Fishing by boat or other flotation device (seasonal).\nThe Maidu tribe is known to have occupied the immediate area for a long period. From about 1850 until a few years prior to State acquisition, the dominant land use was mining. Gold and aggregate mining altered the canyon floor.\nThe property was purchased to protect the anadromous fishery and riparian habitat from land use change encroachments. Secondary goals include habitat enhancement and public use opportunities such as nature viewing, nature education, and fishing access.

He preferred to run his cattle, and was a past-president of the Sonoma-Marin Cattlemen\u2019s Association. But as the family\u2019s third generation to farm Sonoma Valley, he and Fred were largely responsible for restoring Sonoma Valley\u2019s modern reputation as a prime source of high-end grapes and premium wines.\nThe Kunde family first planted grapes on their property in the little village of Kenwood back in 1904. In 2004, the family celebrated the 100th anniversary of their grape harvest. But it fell to Bob and Fred to expand their vineyard holdings significantly in the 1960s and 1970s. They sold the grapes to others, especially Sebastiani, for years, until the brothers\u2014tired of seeing other wineries getting recognition for the quality of the wines made from their fruit\u2014decided to start their own.\nBy the early 1990s, Kunde wines began to be recognized for their quality and also for their fair pricing, a reputation that has expanded until today across the many varieties they grow. The estate, familiar to anyone who drives along the scenic Valley of the Moon highway through Sonoma Valley, now consists of over 700 acres of planted vines, rising to 1,200 feet in the Mayacamas Mountains.\nBob Kunde was 80 and chairman emeritus of the winery.\nTopics: Kunde, Obituary, Winemaker\nPremier Napa Valley Proceeds Down, Though Mood is Festive",

        "title": "What is a Warthin's Tumor? (with pictures)",
        "raw_content": "What is a Warthin's Tumor?\nSymptoms of a Warthin's tumor may include jaw pain.\nSymptoms of a Warthin's tumor may include swollen salivary glands.\nA CAT scan may be conducted to diagnose a Warthin's tumor.\nPeople older than 60 years of age are more prone to developing a Warthin's tumor.\nA Warthin's tumor is a growth that forms in the salivary glands.\nPeople who smoke cigarettes are more likely to develop a Warthin\u2019s tumor.\nA physical examination may help diagnose a Warthin's tumor.\nA Warthin\u2019s tumor is a growth that forms in a person\u2019s salivary glands. This type of tumor is benign, which means it isn\u2019t cancerous. The tumor usually grows very slowly and is painless. While some benign tumors may eventually develop cancerous cells, this occurrence is extremely unlikely with Warthin\u2019s tumors.\nThe exact cause of a Warthin\u2019s tumor is unknown. The development of this type of tumor seems to be linked with cigarette smoke, however. People who smoke cigarettes are much more likely to develop this type of tumor than those who do not. In addition to smoking, age seems to play a role in the development of this type of tumor. People older than 60 years of age are more prone to developing them.\nWhile a Warthin\u2019s tumor may develop in any part of a person\u2019s salivary glands, it is most likely to affect the parotid gland. The salivary glands include the parotid gland, the submandibular gland, and the sublingual gland. Of these three, the parotid gland is the largest, running along the bottom portion of a person\u2019s jawbone and under the earlobe. Though most tumors that affect the salivary glands develop in this gland, the vast majority of them are not cancerous.\nSome people with a Warthin\u2019s tumor do not have any symptoms at all. This is called an asymptomatic case. Others develop a range of symptoms, including swollen salivary glands, bulges in the lower jaw, and pain in the jaw. Some people experience a feeling of pressure in the jaw area while others may develop paralysis of the facial nerves. Additionally, some patients experience earaches and problems with hearing, including ringing in the ears.\nDiagnosis of a Warthin\u2019s tumor usually includes a physical examination in which a doctor uses his hands to detect abnormal swelling in the neck and jaw area. He may also examine the mouth and look for abnormalities in the facial nerve and altered muscle function. Often, doctors employ diagnostic tests in detecting these tumors as well. For example, a doctor may order x-rays and computerized axial tomography (CAT) scans in an attempt to diagnose his patient. Magnetic resonance imaging tests (MRIs) may be used as well, not only to diagnose patients, but also to figure out exactly where the lumps are located and how large they are.\nTreatment for a Warthin\u2019s tumor may depend on the size of the growth and the amount of discomfort it is causing the patient. Often, these tumors are removed surgically. In some cases, it is necessary to remove part of the parotid gland as well.\nAre Dalmatians Prone to Having Abnormal Hearing?\nWhat Is Renal Angiolipoma?\nWhat Is the Treatment for a Warthin's Tumor?\nWhat are Salivary Gland Stones?\nWhat are Parotid Tumors?\nWhat are Neck Tumors?\nWhat is the Parotid Duct?\nJust had my second surgery for warthin's tumors. The first time was on the left side, and the doctor removed 5 tumors; my face is still numb. Last month, they did my right side, and removed 4 huge tumors. I haven't been in this much pain since giving birth, except this pain is constant. On the right side, my doctor said that a tumor had begun to attach itself to the jaw muscle and the jaw bone, and this is the reason for the extreme pain. They had to scrape the tumor.\nI'm not able to eat solid food yet because my jaw starts to spasm after about three bites. It was a 5 hour surgery to get all of the tumors. I still haven't gotten the pathology report yet, and since I'm already a thyroid cancer survivor I'm a little worried.\nI am a 55 year old non smoking female. I found this Wharthin's tumor 5 months ago. My specialist says it's an invasive, risky surgery. He says there are 5 nerves that run from the brain to the face in that area, and if a nerve gets damaged, it can cause permanent paralysis on that side of the face. It takes a minimum of two surgeons to do the surgery. How come I've yet to find anything on the internet about the possibility of facial paralysis? Has no one else's specialist told them about this? We're going to wait another 6 months to see if it grows or not.\nZen master -\nObviously, you'd rather have a benign Warthins tumor than any kind of cancer. However, if you think you'd rather have a parotid cancer versus a prostate cancer, you are absolutely insane. Caught early, prostate cancer is a piece of cake and almost 100% curable.\nAny kind of head and neck cancer, while it may be curable, consists of surgery and probably chemo/radiation which can be difficult on a person. If you had to have a cancer, early stage prostate and early stage breast cancer is definitely what you'd want. Head and neck cancer would be way down on the list.\nI had Warthin's tumor surgery in 1994 for removal of a double tumor. The tumor had grown and shrunk numerous times during the eight years I'd avoided the surgery. It finally got so large it caused an instance of temporary Bell's Palsy. Surgery was supposed to take 40 minutes; it took a team of doctors six and a half hours to do the surgery. They had to peel one side of my face to get all the runners the two tumors put out. Advice? If you have a Warthin's tumor, get the surgery done sooner rather than later.\nMy husband is 52, has just been diagnosed with his second Warthin's tumor. The first one was huge, and they had to lay open his face from behind the top of his ear, down behind his ear, and along his lower jawline to get it all out. The second one, two years later, is smaller, but probably because he knew right away what it probably was and went to see the ENT doctor right then. Again, it is growing very quickly. We are seeing the surgeon tomorrow for details, but I'm sure it will mean surgery again. He is really unhappy about the surgery, but not enough to stop smoking, unfortunately.\nI have been diagnosed with a warthin's tumor also. I am 47 and I noticed a small lump 10 years ago behind my earlobe that never bothered me until I woke one morning recently with the side of my face swollen and some discomfort.\nFortunately, I work in the medical field in the operating room and was able to ask an ENT surgeon about it. He encouraged me to see his colleague he thought it was a parotid tumor. Taking his advice, I went to see his colleague. I also knew him and he diagnosed me with warthin's. Since then, I've dealt with pain and discomfort for five weeks until it finally went down and was not irritated.\nweeks after, it became inflamed and caused severe facial pain which was literally unbearable. I was put on steroids and antibiotics and pain meds and this was 11 days before my scheduled surgery date which is next week. I'm still waiting but thankfully feeling better.\nI smoke, and by quitting smoking would that help the tumor to go away, and is there any medicine that can be taken to help. I was diagnosed this week an the doctor said that it would keep growing unless it was removed.\nMy Warthin tumor seems to be shrinking. i have not read anything about this kind of thing in the literature. i prefer not to have surgery if it is possible for it to go on its own.\nI've just been diagnosed with a warthins tumour. Having it cut out asap!\nI wonder how often Wathin's tumors are mistaken for something else, like a tumor in the thyroid, or a lower sinus tumor.\nSince everything is so close together there around the face and head, I bet it's kind of hard to diagnose tumors in the area.\nAre Warthin's tumors ever connected with GIST tumors?\nMy father-in-law smokes like a chimney, and he was diagnosed with a GIST tumor about ten years ago.\nHe had it treated, and is fine now, but since the two are kind of connected (the gastrointestinal tract and the salivary glands, that is) and he is a smoker, I was wondering if you thought he would be at risk for a Warthin's tumor.\nWhat a strange type of tumor. I guess you really can get a tumor pretty much anywhere on the body. I think if it came down to it though, I'd rather have a Warthin's tumor, or even a parotid tumor, than a prostate tumor.\nOf course, I don't really want to have any tumor at all, but if I had to make a choice, then I think I'd go with Warthin's.",

I think everybody is eager, not just myself.\u201d\nCleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (6) throws a pass during the second quarter against the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Houston.\nIn the second quarter, Houston\u2019s defensive players joined in on the scoring after forcing an interception.\nThe Browns faced a first-and-10 from their own 28-yard line when Cunningham stepped up from his weakside linebacker spot, read a pass from Mayfield to wide receiver Antonio Callaway, jumped the route, corralled the interception and returned the ball 37 yards for a touchdown.\nOriginally, Cunningham was ruled out of bounds close to the goal line, but a replay review overturned the call on the field and resulted in a touchdown.\nThe extra point gave the Texans a 17-0 lead over the Browns with 7:26 to play in the second quarter.\nThen, the Texans turned interceptions on the next two drives into field goals later in the first half.\n\u201cThey were just athletic,\u201d Mayfield said. \u201cPlaying a team like that when they have athletic guys, they can drop into coverage with certain packages.\n\u201cYou just have to be smart. You have to take kind of the dink-and-dunk passes until they give you some of the stuff down the field that you were getting later in the game. It is just playing smart when you play a team like that.\u201d\nAaron Doster\nDuring the first half, Mayfield completed just five of his 13 attempts for 46 yards with the three interceptions, but he rallied at halftime and had a strong finish to the game.\nMayfield finished the game 29 of 43 for 397 yards and one touchdown, a 17-yard scoring pass to wide receiver Rashard \u201cHollywood\u201d Higgins late in the fourth quarter. In the second half, Mayfield completed 24 of his 30 throws for 351 yards and the one touchdown without a turnover.\n\u201cWe were not that far off,\u201d Mayfield said.\n\u201cWe did not need a huge change or switch up what we were calling.

        "raw_content": "FACT CHECK: Last Democratic debate of 2015\nScripps has partnered with PolitiFact in providing coverage of the presidential race in 2015. PolitiFact is nationally recognized for fact-checking statements made by politicians.\nOn Saturday night, the reporters and editors at PolitiFact turned on their Truth-O-Meter as the last Democratic presidential debate of 2015 took place in New Hampshire.\nHere is what the fact-checkers had to say about some of the claims:\nTHE CLAIM: Hillary Clinton said ISIS recruiters \"are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists.\"\nTHE RULING: It seems that Clinton has turned speculative left-of-center rhetoric into fact. At PolitiFact, the burden of proof is on the person making the claim. We were unable to find any evidence to support this. The Clinton campaign did not provide any evidence that this is already happening -- only that it could be happening, or that it may in the future.\nWe\u2019ll update our fact-check in the event solid evidence emerges. But for now, that evidence does not exist. If ISIS was using Trump for recruitment videos, we would expect a frenzy of media coverage over it. We rate this claim False.\nTHE CLAIM: Martin O'Malley talking about Clinton: \"Secretary Clinton changes her position on (gun issues) every election, it seems, having one position in 2000 and then campaigning against President Obama and saying we don't need federal standards.\"\nTHE RULING: In 2000, in the wake of the Columbine school shooting, Clinton was emphatic about her support for gun control. In 2008, she dropped her support for a gun license and registration proposal and positioned herself to the right of her major opponent, Obama. While Clinton also advocated for leaving some gun control to the states, she still advocated for federal gun control efforts, and she never said \"we don\u2019t need federal standards.\"\nIn 2015, Clinton has been more forceful with her support for gun control than she was in 2008 -- closer to her rhetoric in 2000.\nO\u2019Malley has a point that Clinton\u2019s positioning on gun control has shifted between election cycles, but it wasn\u2019t nearly as dramatic as he made it out to be. We rate his claim Half True.\nTHE CLAIM: Bernie Sanders talking about U.S. health care spending: The United States spends \"almost three times per capita what they spend in the U.K.\" on health care and \"50 percent more than they pay in France.\"\nTHE RULING: The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development has the data for all three nations. The following table has breakdown.\nTotal (per capita)\nPublic health care (per capita)\nPrivate health care (per capita)\nSanders said that the United States spends almost three times on health care per capita what is spent in the United Kingdom and about double what they spend in France. The numbers from an independent, reliable source back that up. We rate this statement True.",

        "raw_content": "The crane used on the construction site should be inspected annually. If you cannot find any evidence that the crane has been inspected this year, then it's best not to put it in operation.\nA plan needs to be created for each lift the crane will make. Each load is different in weight and size. The wind conditions could change. There could be different hazards present for a lift today than a lift that happens later in the week.\nYou need to know the conditions of the ground before operating the crane. The crane could very well be anchored properly and assembled correctly, but if the ground is weak, it will not hold the weight of the crane or the weight of the crane's load.\nThe operator of the crane must know the radius of the crane's arm. If there isn't enough clearance in the radius, the crane could wind up damaging a nearby building or even collapsing to the ground.\nThe next time you head to work at a construction site, you need to heed these tips if there is a crane present. The safer you are, the less likely it is that you will be involved in a potentially tragic crane accident.\nRelated Posts: Tips for preventing power tool accidents on the job, Stay safe at roadside construction sites in California, How to prevent a forklift accident on the job, How to prevent electrical hazards in the workplace",

Wisconsin Emergency Management\u2019s Tod Pritchard says it will sound much like the familiar statewide test. \u201cThis system is used quite frequently in Wisconsin for a variety of different reasons. One of the main reasons is just for emergency information.\u201d\nTV and radio stations will air the test as part of national preparedness efforts, as will cable television and satellite radio. Pritchard says the system in Wisconsin was utilized 23 times in the last two years to communicate vital emergency information to the public. \u201cFor local and county governments to get out messages on emergency situations in their neighborhoods and their communities. And the state has used it, for example, the Groundhog Day blizzard, where we alerted the entire state that the roads were dangerous; stay off the roads; stay home.\u201d\nThe EAS on a national scale is a public alert and warning system that enables the U.S. President to address the American public during an emergency. The EAS will occur on Wednesday, November 9, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. to test for bugs in the system. The current system in Wisconsin has been in place for about 15 years.\nThe Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Communications Commission and the National Weather Service, along with state, local and tribal agencies, have been coordinating this test.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Books \u00bb Yamasaki in Detroit\nYamasaki in Detroit\nA Search for Serenity\nSubjects: Detroit, Architecture, Biography\nAlthough his best-known project was the World Trade Center in New York City, Japanese American architect Minoru Yamasaki (1912\u20131986) worked to create moments of surprise, serenity, and delight in distinctive buildings around the world. In his adopted home of Detroit, where he lived and worked for the last half of his life, Yamasaki produced many important designs that range from public buildings to offices and private residences. In Yamasaki in Detroit: A Search for Serenity, author John Gallagher presents both a biography of Yamasaki\u2014or Yama as he was known\u2014and an examination of his working practices, with an emphasis on the architect\u2019s search for a style that would express his artistic goals.\nGallagher explores Yamasaki\u2019s drive to craft tranquil spaces amid bustling cities while other modernists favored \"glass box\" designs. He connects Yamasaki\u2019s design philosophy to tumultuous personal experiences, including the architect\u2019s efforts to overcome poverty, racial discrimination, and his own inner demons. Yamasaki in Detroit surveys select projects spanning from the late 1940s to the end of Yamasaki's life, revealing the unique gardens, pools, plazas, skylight atriums, and other oases of respite in these buildings. Gallagher includes prominent works like the Michigan Consolidated Gas Building in downtown Detroit, Temple Beth-El in Bloomfield Township, and landmark buildings on the Wayne State University and College for Creative Studies campuses, as well as smaller medical clinics, office buildings, and private homes (including Yamasaki\u2019s own residence).\nGallagher consults Yamasaki\u2019s own autobiographical writings, architects who worked with Yamasaki in his firm, and photography from several historic archives to give a full picture of the architect\u2019s work and motivations. Both knowledgeable fans of modernist architecture and general readers will enjoy Yamasaki in Detroit.\nWayne State University Press gratefully acknowledges the organizations that generously supported the publication of this book: Friends of Modern and Contemporary Art, Detroit Institute of Arts, Yamasaki, Inc. and The Office of the Vice President of Research (OVPR) of Wayne State University.\nWebsite: Yamasaki in Detroit minisite\nJohn Gallagher is a veteran journalist and author whose book Reimagining Detroit: Opportunities for Redefining an American City was named by the Huffington Post as among the best social and political books of 2010. His most recent book is Revolution Detroit: Strategies for Urban Reinvention. John was born in New York City and joined the Detroit Free Press in 1987 to cover urban and economic redevelopment efforts in Detroit and Michigan, a post he still holds. His other books include Great Architecture of Michigan and, as co-author, AIA Detroit: The American Institute of Architects Guide to Detroit Architecture. John and his wife, Sheu-Jane, live along Detroit\u2019s east riverfront.\nA great read about a great architectural legacy.\n\u2013 Stephen Vogel, professor of architecture at University of Detroit Mercy\nJohn Gallagher's insights provide the reader with a rich understanding of Yamasaki's creativity, all-consuming work style, and compassion for people that resulted in buildings of delight and serenity. The recent designation of the McGregor Memorial Conference Center as a National Historic Landmark is a fitting tribute to an architect who brought us beauty and balanced simplicity.\n\u2013 Freda P. Giblin, director of inter-institutional initiatives, Office of the Vice President for Research at Wayne State University\nJohn Gallagher captures, in images and text, the very essence of Minoru Yamasaki\u2014a genius, a troubled soul, a great designer, but an architect often misunderstood during his all too short life.\n\u2013 Robin Boyle, professor and chair of urban planning, Wayne State University\nWith his strong background as architecture and development writer for the Detroit Free Press, Gallagher captures the essence of Yamasaki\u2019s illustrious career as a Detroit-based architect who designed notable buildings around the world.\n\u2013 Brian Conway, State of Michigan Historic Preservation Officer\nYamasaki changed not only Detroit's skyline, but the world's. An architectural master deserves a fitting tribute such as this. Few writers can combine a knowledge and appreciation for architecture as well as John Gallagher.\n\u2013 Dan Austin, author of Forgotten Landmarks of Detroit and Lost Detroit\nWith so little available scholarship on Minoru Yamasaki's important contributions to mid-century Modern design, Gallagher's Yamasaki in Detroit is a welcome introduction to the subject.\n\u2013 Ruth E.

THE STATE IS ALSO IN\nWinston-Salem police are investigating reports of \"several children walking\" outside of the Pinedale Christian Daycare facility on Peters Creek Parkway Tuesday afternoon.The incident happened at 3:35 p.m. when a unsupervised group of six children, around the ages of 2 and 3 years old, wandered outside, according to daycare officials.Once outside, the children climbed the grassy hill up to Peters Creek Parkway.According to a witness, at least one child was walking in the middle of the road while several other children were playing on the side of the road.Motorists and a police officer immediately stopped when they saw the children.The children were then safely escorted back to the daycare and parents were contacted.Angie Herman, of Winston-Salem, says one of the children was in front of her car. The children couldn't have been older than three years old, Herman says.\"None of them had coats on and (it) was freezing. (I) found another baby in the outer and inner doors to the church and got him to finally let us in -- to find a mess where they had torn the Christmas tree up,\" said Herman in a social media post.Herman said no adults were in sight when she drove near the children. \"I am a wreck after all this,\" Herman said.Winston-Salem police was only able to say they did respond to the school around 4 p.m. Tuesday.Matthew Sink, the minister of Pinedale Church, says the social media description of what happened is \"true and accurate.\"\"It is probably, for me and for our leaders, the most devastating thing we have ever experienced,\" said Sink. \"We started that daycare 22 years ago with a passion for the kids to have a safe place during the day. What happened yesterday is the exact opposite of what we stand for.\"Sink said he did not know the age range of the students that were able to escape the daycare. However, he confirms that the students got out of eyesight of their teacher, ran out the door, and ran up the bank in front of the church.\"I have no explanation of what could have happened and I won't excuse it. In one sense, we are thanking God that didn't end in a tragedy. We are just devastated and embarrassed. It didn't end in a tragedy, and for that part, we are grateful,\" said Sink.Sink said Wednesday morning that the staff is trying to figure out where to go from here. He says things have been addressed and changed, but did not elaborate further.Sink said two teachers were disciplined and advised they are not back in the classroom.\"The bottom line is that our leaders are trying to figure out how to move forward,\" said Sink. \"There is nothing that is hidden and we are talking to the parents of the daycare.\"Herman remains in disbelief.\"We don't know how long these children where out there. Anything could have happened. They could have been abducted and no one would have known anything,\" she said. \"The parents entrusted this daycare with their children and they failed to protect them.\"\nWinston-Salem police are investigating reports of \"several children walking\" outside of the Pinedale Christian Daycare facility on Peters Creek Parkway Tuesday afternoon.\nThe incident happened at 3:35 p.m. when a unsupervised group of six children, around the ages of 2 and 3 years old, wandered outside, according to daycare officials.\nOnce outside, the children climbed the grassy hill up to Peters Creek Parkway.\nAccording to a witness, at least one child was walking in the middle of the road while several other children were playing on the side of the road.\nMotorists and a police officer immediately stopped when they saw the children.\nThe children were then safely escorted back to the daycare and parents were contacted.\nAngie Herman, of Winston-Salem, says one of the children was in front of her car.

What is unique about spiders is that they all produce silk. Some species use it to trap insects in webs, and it can also be used to aid in climbing, to protect egg sacs, and to wrap prey in preparation for consumption. Spiders are often referred to in popular culture, symbolism and culture. They have been attributed by numerous cultures with the origination of basket-weaving, knotwork, weaving, spinning and net-making. The ancient Moche people of Peru actually worshipped nature, and often put spiders in their art.\nWhy worry about messing around with a live spider when you can get a real one already prepared for you to examine anyways? Students and teachers needn\u2019t worry, this spider won't bite! This is a great specimen of a REAL spider mounted in a small clear acrylic block. Great for looking at details under a microscope, or for having in the classroom, this is a great educational resource for the young science student or for the serious entomologist! They\u2019re small enough that you can even keep one in your pocket as a good luck charm if you have an insatiable passion for arachnids\nNote: Actual size of block is 1.75in x 1.25in x 0.375in\nSpider Specimen",

        "raw_content": "By Joel Smith , Aug 28, 2007\nMira Binzen has been teaching yoga in the Chicago area for the past eight years\u0097work she describes as \"teaching people to be peaceful from the inside out.\" So a few years ago, when she heard about a proposal to add a Department of Peace to the president's cabinet, it immediately clicked. Binzen joined other yogis, like Ike and Judith Lasater, and celebrity supporters in the Peace Alliance, a nonpartisan citizens' action group.\nThe alliance formed in 2003 to support legislative proposals\u0097such as the bill introduced into Congress by U.S. Representative Dennis Kucinich, of Ohio\u0097to establish a Department of Peace and Nonviolence, a federal department that would work hand in hand with the departments of State and Defense. \"We're doing yoga on a personal level, and the Department of Peace is like yoga for our society,\" says Binzen. \"It's bringing about healing through nonviolent means.\"\nLast fall Binzen helped organize the alliance's conference in Washington, D.C., which drew volunteers from more than 40 states and urged voters to call on Congress for support. It appears to have worked. Kucinich and Senator Mark Dayton, of Minnesota, have introduced bills that establish a cabinet-level Department of Peace and Nonviolence. The bills, which by press time had found 75 cosponsors, declare that \"the time has come to review age-old challenges with new thinking\" about peace and violence, and call for a dedication to \"peacemaking and the study of conditions that are conducive to both domestic and international peace.\"\nUnder the bills, the secretary of peace and nonviolence would have domestic responsibilities, addressing everything from gang violence to domestic abuse and working with the secretary of education to implement a peace curriculum in public schools. Internationally, the secretary would advise the departments of Defense and State on matters of national security, monitor global arms sales, and make recommendations to the president regarding the reduction of weapons of mass destruction. A peace academy would provide training in peace education.\nIt may sound like a tough sell in today's political climate. But Patty Kuderer, the Peace Alliance's co-director of communications, notes that although there were separate agencies handling the environment before the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970, it took the EPA to tie those efforts together and make them a matter of national policy.\n\"We need to create this agency that sits right at the same table with the other secretaries...when these decisions about how to handle volatile situations come up,\" Kuderer says. \"And right now, the president doesn't have that expertise at his disposal.\"\nImagine Inner Peace\nCelebrating Satchidananda's Vision of World Peace\nYoga Joes Are Here to Keep the Inner Peace\nPicture of Peace",

        "raw_content": "Among the many projects in competition for the Haptic Design Award, one in particular stuck out like\u2014well, a sore thumb.\nThat project was The Third Thumb, a 3D-printed extension of the hand designed by UK-based New Zealand native Dani Clode. Not only does The Third Thumb serve as a fascinating investigation on the relationship between the human body and prosthetics, it sparks surprise, fascination and even joy in the people who try it out.\nClode sat down with the organizer of Haptic Design project Kouta Minamizawa at FabCafe Tokyo for a chat about the project, the present and future of prosthetics, and why the thumb is her favorite part of the body.\nText / Matt Schley, Photos/ Hajime Kato\nMinamizawa: I was really impressed by your project\u2014not only in terms of the technology, but the design. It\u2019s a really interesting take. How did you come up with the idea of augmenting the body?\nClode: So, I wrote my Master\u2019s dissertation on human extension, and extension in general\u2014looking into animals that extend their senses, for example, and into prosthetics as well. Then I came across the Latin origin of the word \u201cprosthesis,\u201d and I found that it meant \u201cin addition to\u2014to add onto.\u201d That just completely shifted my whole perspective on how we understand what a prosthetic is. I realized that it\u2019s not something that replaces, but something that extends ability.\nFor me, prosthetics are such unique objects. They cross these different boundaries between a product and the body and experience in a way no other product seems to do. I wanted to experience it for myself, and explore the idea of extension.\nAlso, I just love the thumb! The thumb is amazing to me.\nMinamizawa: Why?\nClode: Thumbs are just so human. They\u2019re one of our most human qualities. One of the most unique movements that we do, unlike any other mammal. It\u2019s also one of the biggest challenges in a prosthetic hand, so I thought I\u2019d tackle it.\nMinamizawa: Could you talk a little about the design process?\nClode: I was really inspired by what\u2019s called living hinge design. That\u2019s when the design of the material put under force creates the movement, so there\u2019s no interlocking mechanisms. That was important, because I decided I didn\u2019t want any interlocking hinges\u2014we don\u2019t have them in our hands.\nI started prototyping a lot with laser-cutting gaps out of material, so when put under force, it would give in those areas. Lots of 3D-printed processes, lot of materials. Then I found NinjaFlex, which is a flexible filament for 3D printers. That completely opened up my options for prototyping, and enabled me to put in internal channels for all my wires\u2014and it flexed in a way I just loved. Then I worked with a Formlabs resin for the hand, because it\u2019s a really soft, high-res resin that also allowed for those internal channels.\nI prototyped a lot how it was attached to the hand also. I really looked at the hand in terms of where the movement is. I needed a rigid part to attach to, which was daunting, because the hand has so much movement. I found that the small area underneath the pinky finger has almost no movement\u2026 it\u2019s just kind of squishy, so that was a really good place to put it. I also had to work on how to get it to fit the most hands. The current model is made for my hand, but I\u2019ve made it in a way that it can fit the most hands possible. I\u2019ve only met three hands it couldn\u2019t fit (laughs). After I developed all that, I worked on the control.\nMinamizawa: The Third Thumb uses sensors on the toes for control. When we extend the body, one of the most important things is how we control those extensions. How did you hit on the idea of foot control?\nClode: I did a few prototypes that relied on the hand, but they weren\u2019t very functional, so I decided to go wider and explore the entire body. A lot of prosthetics are controlled by electromyography sensors, but that\u2019s built off muscle memory of the vestigial limb. Obviously, there\u2019s no muscle memory for The Third Thumb, so I decided that it could be anything, really. I looked at the flex of our skin, and joints\u2014elbows, knees. But then I realized the feet are so\u2026 we have a lot of control over our toes, but we don\u2019t utilize it that much. I also realized the thumb and the big toe are kind of connected\u2014if you look through evolution, there\u2019s a connection between our hands and our feet.\nMinamizawa: How long does it take users to get used to the controls?\nClode: Getting a response from it is quite quick, but it does take a while to get more subtle movements out of it. I\u2019ve found that the more I\u2019ve used it, the more I\u2019ve grown attached to it. That\u2019s something that\u2019s very interesting about the project: the feeling of attachment that\u2019s being created.\nMinamizawa: In your video introducing the thumb, all the users look like they\u2019re having fun, and are surprised. What kind of reactions have you seen?\nClode: Right! With the video, I made sure everything you see was their first reaction\u2014that was really important for me. I set up all the cameras beforehand, so those are their real initial reactions. It is really a unique and weird experience. It\u2019s been very positive. It starts off as kind of a shock\u2014one girl actually got kind of scared from it. Then you go from shock to intrigue, then start to explore with it.\nMinamizawa: Were there any findings you didn\u2019t expect?\nClode: I think the most unexpected finding is the attachment I\u2019ve started to feel with it. At one point, I was wearing it on and off every day for about two weeks, and after taking it off, I felt like there was something missing on my hand. I think because of the subtle movements, you grow quite attached to it. That\u2019s definitely something I wasn\u2019t expecting.\nThe Future of Body Extension\nMinamizawa: What do you think will happen when people start to extend their bodies like this?\nClode: Good question! We\u2019re still really in the early stages. One thing that has to change is that the parts need to get smaller. I\u2019m still struggling with the fact that servos and things are still big blocks. But as that changes, I think it\u2019s going to open up a lot more opportunity to design ourselves.\nI think expanding our senses is going to be something interesting. In terms of wayfinding and becoming more aware of our environment. Maybe not physically altering ourselves, but extending our senses, is definitely something that will be very interesting.\nMinamizawa: I think this is exactly why we chose your project for award. Haptic refers to our sense of touch. But if we only think about it in terms of our own receptors, our own sense of touch, we can\u2019t change. Your project points a way forward for how our bodies can change\u2014and if our bodies change, our behavior changes, and our view of the environment might change as well.\nClode: Thank you.\nMinamizawa: Tokyo is going to host the Olympics and Paralympics in 2020. How do you think events like the Paralympics affect prosthetics as a whole?\nClode: I do think you see a lot of interesting innovation with the Paralympics, just because of all the money and support that goes into that development. The US BMW wheelchair design for the 2016 Paralympics, for example. Innovative design elements built for that level of competition can be translated back into everyday wheelchairs, which is so amazing. My most favorite is the cheetah leg, the running prosthetic. That innovation came from looking at the end solution, rather than trying to recreate the human body. It\u2019s just an incredible innovation. It\u2019s even exceeding the ability of a human leg, which brings up all kinds of interesting questions about our bodies.\nMinamizawa: What knowledge or technology do you think is still required in this field?\nClode: I think we need more development on attaching to the body. That, and designing for our bodies, and how different each of us are. We\u2019re not just small, medium, large. We\u2019re all so unique, and so mass customization is a big challenge. I think we\u2019re getting there with footwear and certain kinds of sports clothing, which is at the high end of being adapted to our bodies.\nA lot of ethical questions come up when we look at where this is going in the future too: there are interesting questions about both adding to and replacing parts of our bodies, and we need to start talking about that more as our technologies get better than our bodies.\nMinamizawa:Yes, the ethical issues in terms of changing or editing our bodies are really interesting\u2014we also need to have discussions about acceptance. In Asian religions, we have a lot of deities with multiple arms, faces, and things like that, so I feel like we\u2019re kind of primed for acceptance, in a way. How far along do you find social acceptance of prosthetics in the west?\nClode: I\u2019ve definitely had a lot of mixed reactions to The Third Thumb. A lot of people say, \u201cwhoa, that\u2019s just too weird.\u201d Especially on the hands\u2014I think there\u2019s something quite visceral about our hands. It\u2019s our contact point\u2014it\u2019s our interaction point with the world. To edit your hands is a bit too weird for some people.\nBut I think things like the Paralympics will help with it\u2014help people accept that our bodies are so different, and that there are people extending their ability through technology.\nMinamizawa: What body part would you like to try next?\nClode: I\u2019m not sure\u2014I\u2019ve been so focused on the thumb. It would be cool to try the whole arm. I design prosthetic arms as well, so it would be cool to combine them. But I think the biggest challenge would be how it\u2019s controlled. You would need a unique way to control it.\nMinamizawa: From a scientific point of view, you need two things: agency and ownership. Agency meaning freely controlling it as you wish, and ownership meaning feeling some sort of stimulus or feedback. Your foot control definitely gives your users agency, but are you working on anything in terms of ownership?\nClode: Yeah, ownership would take The Third Thumb to the next level. Feedback is hard. There\u2019s a lot out there in terms of vibration, or sound feedback, for example, that\u2019s really interesting. I\u2019ve seen something interesting called skin stretch. It becomes more of an attachment to the hand, and you feel the feedback in terms of stretch on your skin. That could be a route I might go down.\nMinamizawa: Feedback like that is important, because it helps the brain start to change its body map. I think your approach could also be used for people with disabilities, people who don\u2019t have hands or fingers, for example. Do you have any ideas in terms of fabricating things for them?\nClode: I\u2019ve been contacted by so many people from the prosthetics community, and it\u2019s been so validating for me to be approached by them. I get the feeling they see the potential in my project. One of the reasons I did a project like this in the first place, as a designer, was to understand prosthetics better, to have first-hand knowledge of what it\u2019s like to add something to your body. Absolutely, I\u2019d love to take it down that route.\nMinamizawa: We\u2019re seeing more of this in Japan now too. A whole community of people using 3D printing to design their own prosthetic hands.\nClode: I think 3D printing for prosthetics is so interesting, because it is that kind of mass customization that you need. So many people need it, but all of them need it to be so unique.\nMinamizawa: What are you working on now?\nClode: I\u2019m currently working with the Alternative Limb Project, making prosthetic arms. I\u2019m also working on developing The Third Thumb further with a team of neuroscientists from The Plasticity Lab at University College London. What their research is finding is that some amputees are choosing not to use their prosthetics, and instead using their biological arm, twice as much. They came across my work, and they\u2019re interested in if we add another digit to the biological arm of amputees, how that could potentially help them instead of, or as well as, a prosthetic.",

        "title": "Trump adviser outlines conditions for US pullout from Syria - News - The Glen Rose Reporter - Glen Rose, TX",
        "raw_content": "Trump adviser outlines conditions for US pullout from Syria\nJERUSALEM (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump's national security adviser said Sunday that the American military withdrawal from northeastern Syria is conditioned on defeating the remnants of the Islamic State group and on Turkey assuring the safety of U.S.-allied Kurdish fighters.\nJohn Bolton said there is no timetable for the pullout, but insisted the military presence is not an unlimited commitment.\n\"There are objectives that we want to accomplish that condition the withdrawal,\" Bolton told reporters in Jerusalem before heading to Turkey on Monday, where he will be joined by the chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Joseph Dunford. \"The timetable flows from the policy decisions that we need to implement.\"\nThose conditions, he said, included defeating what's left of IS in Syria and protecting Kurdish militias who have fought alongside U.S. troops against the extremist group.\nBolton's comments were the first public confirmation that the drawdown has been slowed. Trump had faced widespread criticism from allies about his decision, announced in mid-December, that he was pulling all 2,000 U.S. troops from Syria. Officials said at the time that although many details of the withdrawal had not yet been finalized, they expected American forces to be out by mid-January.\n\"We are pulling back in Syria,\" Trump said Sunday at the White House, adding that he had never publicly given a timetable for withdrawal. \"We're going to be removing our troops.\"\nTrump's move, which led to the resignation of U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, has raised fears over clearing the way for a Turkish assault on the Kurdish fighters. Turkey considers the Syrian Kurdish People's Protection Units, or YPG, a terrorist group linked to an insurgency within its own borders.\nBolton said the U.S. is insisting that its Kurdish allies in Syria are protected from any planned Turkish offensive \u2014 a warning he was expected to deliver to Turkey's president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, this week.\n\"We don't think the Turks ought to undertake military action that's not fully coordinated with and agreed to by the United States,\" Bolton said. He said that in upcoming meetings with Turkish officials he will seek \"to find out what their objectives and capabilities are and that remains uncertain.\"\nTrump has made clear that he would not allow Turkey to kill the Kurds, Bolton said. \"That's what the president said, the ones that fought with us.\"\nBolton said the U.S. has asked the Kurds to \"stand fast now\" and refrain from seeking protection from Russia or Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government. \"I think they know who their friends are,\" he added, speaking of the Kurds.\nJim Jeffrey, the special representative for Syrian engagement and the newly named American special envoy for the anti-Islamic State coalition, is to travel to Syria this coming week in an effort to reassure the Kurdish fighters that they are not being abandoned, Bolton said.\nTurkey's presidential spokesman called allegations that his country planned to attack the U.S.-allied Kurds in Syria \"irrational\" and said Turkey was fighting terrorism for national security.\nIn comments carried by the official Anadolu news agency, Ibrahim Kalin said the Kurdish fighters oppressed Syrian Kurds and pursued a separatist agenda under the guise of fighting IS. \"That a terror organization cannot be allied with the U.S. is self-evident,\" he said.\nBolton said U.S. troops would remain at the critical area of al-Tanf, in southern Syria, to counter growing Iranian activity in the region. He defended the legal basis for the deployment, saying it's justified by the president's constitutional authority.\nThe U.S. is also seeking a \"satisfactory disposition\" for roughly 800 IS prisoners held by the U.S.-backed Syrian opposition, Bolton said, adding talks were ongoing with European and regional partners about the issue.\nBolton was to have dinner with Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Sunday to discuss the pace of the U.S. drawdown, American troop levels in the region, and the U.S. commitment to push back on Iranian regional expansionism.\nBolton was expected to explain that some U.S. troops based in Syria to fight IS will shift to Iraq with the same mission and that the al-Tanf base would remain.\nBolton also was to convey the message that the United States is \"very supportive\" of Israeli strikes against Iranian targets in Syria, according to a senior administration official, who was not authorized to publicly discuss Bolton's plans before the meetings and spoke on condition of anonymity.\nBolton on Sunday also toured the ancient tunnels beneath the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City. He watched a virtual reality tour of the historic site and dined there with his Israeli equivalent, as well as U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman and Israel's ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer.\nVisiting American officials typically avoid holding official meetings in parts of east Jerusalem, which is contested between Israelis and Palestinians. Trump, however, also toured the area in a previous visit.\nIsrael annexed east Jerusalem after capturing it from Jordan in the 1967 war, a move not recognized by most of the international community. Palestinians seek east Jerusalem as the capital of their future state.\nAssociated Press writers Zeynep Bilginsoy in Istanbul and Catherine Lucey in Washington contributed to this report.",

        "raw_content": "Someone Is Lying: Obama Says Not Arming Syrian Rebels, Syrian Rebels Say He Is\nAs we noted yesterday, President Obama is saying he is contemplating arming and training Syrian rebels (just the 'moderates' which will be identified by their smiles). However, as the following PBS Frontline documentary exposes, the Syrian rebels themselves say they are already armed and trained by US in the use of sophisticated weapons and fighting techniques, including, one rebel said, \"how to finish off soldiers still alive after an ambush.\" The interviews are the latest evidence that after more than three years of warfare, the United States has stepped up the provision of lethal aid to the rebels, as PBS notes \"it appears the Obama administration is allowing select groups of rebels to receive US-made anti-tank missiles.\" So who is lying? Obama (again) or the Syrian rebels (who show US-made supplies in the following clips).\nThe whole interview is noteworthy and damning for the administration but the good stuff starts around 8:00\nAs PBS explains,\nThe documentary, produced by FRONTLINE for airing on PBS stations, features journalist Muhammad Ali, who has been following the Syrian civil war for the program. It shows Ali meeting up with a seemingly moderate faction of the rebels, though the faction itself is not identified \u2014 apparently for fear of angering its American contacts.\nAli is shown riding with a rebel supply officer as he traveled to the Turkish border to reportedly pick up American-supplied Russian weapons and ammunition, but he is not allowed to accompany the fighters to the actual meeting.\nThe commander of the unit also told Ali that their American contacts had asked him to bring 80 to 90 members of his unit to Ankara for training.\nOne of the fighters said they received three weeks of training in how to conduct ambushes, conduct raids and use their weapons. They also said they received new uniforms and boots.\nThe United States has refused to confirm its growing efforts to help the fighters. Neither the Pentagon nor the CIA would comment on Frontline\u2019s findings.\nFor the United States, publicly embracing such an effort presents many challenges, chief among them widespread opposition among U.S. voters for more direct U.S. involvement in the Syrian conflict.\nPerhaps because of those reasons, Congress has never publicly signed off on funding for a training and arming effort, and officially, the United States only provides non-lethal aid, like food rations, clothing and first aid supplies.\nOf course, we are sure anyone from the government looking into this will be shocked and not have a clue how it could have happened... who is responsible for the decision... and who is funding it... once again we ask... who is lying?",

        "raw_content": "My family is taking a Christmas trip to Colorado this year\u2013 with our RV.\nWith the predicted highs that week in the 30\u2019s and the lows in the single digits, most of our southeast Texas friends and family think we\u2019re crazy to brave the cold in a structure that has walls that are only 2 inches thick. However, the truth is that this won\u2019t be our first RV adventure in the cold and what we\u2019ve learned from our previous cold nights in the wilderness is that a little bit of preparation today, makes for a comfortable and efficient journey tomorrow!\nChances are that your business isn\u2019t run out of an RV and that your walls are thicker than 2 inches. However, the same cold weather that has the potential to ruin our Christmas vacation without a little bit of preparation will also wreak havoc on your utility bills if you, as a facility operator, aren\u2019t prepared for it.\nHere are five things you can do this week to help prepare your business for the colder months and make your journey through this winter more enjoyable for your employees and your customers.\n1. It doesn\u2019t have to be drafty in here!\nMost businesses don\u2019t realize how much money is slipping through the cracks around the windows, doors, and even the electrical outlets. Check door frames, window frames, electrical outlets, and light switches for drafts. Simply take your hand and run it around these edges of these items. If you feel cold air\u2013 you\u2019re spending more money on energy than you need to. A trip to your local hardware store or a quick search on Amazon will help you find tools and supplies to seal those little cracks and save money!\n2. Set it and Forget it!\nA lot of people don\u2019t realize that your HVAC system isn\u2019t just heating and cooling the air, it\u2019s also heating and cooling the furniture, the flooring, the walls, and everything else in your office. When your thermostat\u2019s settings are constantly changing, your HVAC system isn\u2019t only having to adjust the ambient air temperature; it also has to compensate for the temperature variations of the items and materials in the room. These thermostat fluctuations contribute to energy costs in the winter because things like desks, chairs, and flooring take longer to warm up and act like little refrigerators throughout the office, making your HVAC system work harder than it needs to. A good practice to combat this is to set the temperature in the office and don\u2019t let it fluctuate more than five degrees up or down. This way the air in the office stays warm, but so to do all the items in the office!\n3. Space Heaters are space invaders!\nSpace heaters work great for keeping an RV warm in Colorado in the winter. However, in an office environment, they are a huge energy hog and can be extremely dangerous. Of course, you probably already knew that, but did you know that space heaters do longterm damage to your office that you can\u2019t see? These little appliances take a toll on a building\u2019s electrical system and cause it to deteriorate quickly. Worn out breakers, fatigued connections from heating and cooling wires, and damage to other items plugged into the same circuit are all indirect costs associated with space heaters in the office. The solution is to keep your office warm, so your employees aren\u2019t tempted to bring in these devices. The truth is that what you\u2019ll pay now for those extra degrees on the thermostat may be a lot less than what you\u2019ll pay your electrical contractor later!\n4. Spend less on lighting!\nWhen you spend less on lighting, you can spend more on keeping things warm and comfortable. LED lighting is a great solution for redirecting operational dollars to keeping the business warmer in the winter. LED lighting also creates a better lit work environment so not only will you have more money in your energy budget, your teams will be more productive, and the business will benefit all around!\n5. It\u2019s going to get warm again!\nFor most of us, the cold months won\u2019t last all year. The best time to prepare for coming Summer heat is during the cold months of Winter. The savings from LED lights that are warming you during the Winter will also cool you off during the Summer. Now is the time to consider adding controls to your HVAC system, or having your electrical system overhauled to handle the larger electrical loads of the summer months. Looking for things you can do in the winter to prepare for the summer will not only help your business save money but will help you give you the peace of mind that no matter whether your business is ready to do business!\nWhether you\u2019re in an RV or a 100 story high rise, we all want to be comfortable and efficient. A little bit of preparation today can make sure your customers and your employees are comfortable tomorrow!\nFSG can help you make sure your business is ready for the winter months and for the summer months that follow! Give us a call today and let us talk to you about how we can help your business be more efficient.",

        "raw_content": "Orexigen Beats the Odds, Wins OK from FDA Panel for Obesity Drug\nOrexigen Therapeutics, the San Diego-based developer of obesity drugs, beat the odds today by winning a positive recommendation from an FDA advisory panel that said its lead drug deserves a spot on the U.S. market.\nThe FDA\u2019s expert panel on obesity drugs voted 13-7 in favor of allowing Orexigen\u2019s combination of bupropion/naltrexone (Contrave) for sale on the U.S. market. The FDA often follows the recommendation of its advisory panels, but it isn\u2019t required to do so. The agency\u2019s deadline to complete its review of the Orexigen application is January 31.\nOrexigen (NASDAQ: OREX) had the benefit of being the third company this year to take a new treatment for obesity before an FDA advisory panel. That, some investors surmised, offered Orexigen an advantage in that it could watch and learn from the experience of Mountain View, CA-based Vivus (NASDAQ: VVUS) and San Diego-based Arena Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ARNA). Both of those companies failed to win a positive recommendation from advisory panels, and saw their applications get shot down by the FDA shortly after.\nAnyone who can win FDA approval for a new obesity drug, clearly has the potential to tap into a big market. An estimated two-thirds of people in the U.S. are considered overweight or obese, which raises their risk for a whole raft of chronic ailments like diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and depression, to name a few. But Big Pharma has to tread carefully with new obesity treatments, remembering the fen-phen safety debacle of the 1990s and more recent safety concerns tied to drugs like rimonabant (Acomplia) from Sanofi-Aventis and sibutramine (Meridia) from Abbott Laboratories.\nThe clear signal from the past two FDA panels this year suggested that the safety bar is very high for a treatment that could be taken by millions of people with a chronic, non-life threatening condition.\nI didn\u2019t listen to the FDA panel myself today, but Lisa LaMotta wrote a lot about the panel in real-time on Twitter, and TheStreet.com columnist Adam Feuerstein covered this in a live blog.\nWhile this is certainly a boon for Orexigen, the betting on Wall Street for the next few weeks will be whether the FDA actually goes ahead and follows the advice of its panel. If the FDA allows this drug on the market, the questions will get more and more serious about how Orexigen, and its partner Japan-based Takeda Pharmaceuticals, plan to start tapping into this big potential market.",

        "title": "Xconomy: San Diego Life Science Companies See Stock Bumps, Slips in JPM Wake",
        "raw_content": "Back in the days of H&Q, bankers and entrepreneurs flocked to San Francisco to get information about biotech companies that was otherwise hard to come by. Investors, thrilled\u2014or spooked\u2014by the details proffered by company representatives, would rush to a trading desk set up in the Westin St. Francis Hotel, says long-time conference attendee Joe Panetta, president and CEO of California\u2019s Biocom, who returned this year for the 37th annual. (Read Xconomy\u2019s annual reporter\u2019s notebook-style JPM wrap-up story, published Friday, for more on the event itself.)\nToday, of course, information is easy to come by, thanks to the Internet, so the focus of the conference and many associated events held in its vicinity has shifted to deal-making, partnering, and general schmoozing. However, many companies still get a stock bump\u2014or see it battered\u2014based on what they say during the event, often used to set investor expectations for the year.\nHere\u2019s a look at some of the San Diego-based public life sciences companies that made the trip (notwithstanding delayed flights, high winds across the SFO runway, and a general dampness about the city, anathema to us denizens of Southern California), and how investors responded.\n4 STOCKS THAT SAW A BUMP\n\u2014Mirati Therapeutics (NASDAQ: MRTX) stock was up 35 percent as of market close Friday compared to its price a week prior on Jan. 4, the last day of trading before the conference kicked off. Its stock price jumped from just shy of $45 to about $61. (In the same time, the Nasdaq Biotechnology index rose about 6 percent.)\nInvestors liked what president and CEO Charles Baum had to say about the commercial potential of the company\u2019s oncology programs. Mirati also announced a collaboration with Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY) Jan. 11, through which it will get to use the company\u2019s nivolumab (Opdivo) for free in its planned Phase 3 trial testing the checkpoint inhibitor in combination with Mirati\u2019s sitravatinib in non-small cell lung cancer.\n\u2014Dexcom (NASDAQ: DXCM) saw about a 21 percent increase over that time, rising from about $116 to about $141. Investors liked the diabetes care company\u2019s financials, including its preliminary estimate that its 2018 revenue would top $1.025 billion, 47 percent more than the year prior. The company also estimated about 15-20 percent additional growth in revenue in 2019. Dexcom makes continuous glucose-monitoring devices that don\u2019t require blood samples from the fingertip.\n\u2014The stock price of Acadia Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ACAD) rose about 20 percent, from nearly $18 to more than $21. Investors were excited about the potential for the company\u2019s drug, pimavanserin (Nuplazid), on the market today for hallucinations and delusions in Parkinson\u2019s patients, to treat other indications, too. The company is testing the drug in clinical trials for schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and dementia-related psychosis.\n\u2014Neurocrine Biosciences (NASDAQ: NBIX) recorded about a 16 percent rise, going from about $75 apiece to about $87 per share. Investors responded to a preliminary estimate that net product sales of valbenazine (Ingrezza), the company\u2019s first drug and the only FDA-approved product for the treatment of adults with tardive dyskinesia\u2014a disease that causes uncontrollable repetitive, jerking movements, often caused by some medications for mental illness\u2014would total $409 million in 2018, and $130 million in the fourth quarter of the year (compared to $116.6 million and $64.5 million, respectively, the year prior). The company, which had its first two medicines approved in the last 18 months, anticipates FDA decisions for three of its five clinical-stage drugs in four indications in 2020, said CEO Kevin Gorman.\n2 STOCKS THAT SLIPPED\n\u2014Crinetics Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CRNX) saw its stock price drop 20 percent, with its per-share price falling from about $29 to about $23. The company is developing treatments for rare endocrine disorders. Its lead product candidate is entering Phase 2 trials as a potential treatment for acryomegaly, a hormone disorder that results from abnormally high levels of growth hormone in adults. It also has two preclinical programs and one in the discovery stage.\nOne of those preclinical drugs, however, may prove too toxic to move forward, CEO Scott Struthers said. The compound, CRN02481, which Crinetics is testing as a treatment for patients with congenital hyperinsulinism, a genetic disorder in which the pancreas produces abnormally high levels of insulin, has \u201chit some stumbling blocks in the (toxicology) program we\u2019re trying to sort through,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re also activating the backups \u2026 these kids deserve the best molecule we can (offfer); not sure if 2481 is it.\u201d\n\u2014NuVasive (NASDAQ: NUVA) saw its stock drop by 9 percent, falling from about $50 per share before JPM to about $46 apiece. The company, which makes products and services for spine surgery, said it estimated fourth quarter revenue totaling $288 million and 2018 revenue of about $1.1 billion, lower than the range it had previously told investors to expect.\n\u201cI\u2019ll acknowledge the fact that we need to do a better job of articulating our commitments and making sure that we\u2019re delivering on our commitments, (and) executing on those commitments,\u201d said CEO Christopher Barry during the company\u2019s presentation on Jan. 11. Barry succeeded former NuVasive chief executive Greg Lucier in November.\nAND 1 THAT GOT A SHRUG\n\u2014Investors responded indifferently to Illumina (NASDAQ: ILMN), which saw its stock rise about 1 percent from about $303 per share to about $307.\nThe company estimated 2019 revenue of $3.76 billion and $3.8 billion, 13-14 percent above 2019, below the average analyst estimate of $3.81 billion. That excludes the impact of its acquisition of Menlo Park, CA-based Pacific Biosciences, which the company anticipates will be finalized in the middle of the year.\nHowever, it\u2019s forecasting low single-digit growth for its arrays business.\n\u201cOur outlook reflects a cautious view of the consumer opportunity as we start the year, although we expect this business to reaccelerate as consumer health and international opportunities ramp up,\u201d saidCEO Francis deSouza.\nIllumina customers in 2018 generated more than 100 terabytes of sequencing data on its systems, which deSouza called a record for sequencing data generated in a single year. (That\u2019s the equivalent of about 25 times the size of the Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) catalog, he said.) Still, DeSouza said that\u2019s just \u201cthe very beginning\u201d for the company, noting that fewer than 0.02 percent of people have had their genome sequenced.\nStudy Stakes San Diego\u2019s Claim in Genomics: $292M in 2016 VC Deals\nBiocom Opens New Bay Area Office, Forms Advisory Group\nIllumina Set to Acquire \u201cLong-Read\u201d DNA Sequencer PacBio for $1.2B",

        "title": "The Return of Doctor X",
        "raw_content": "The Return of Doctor X (1939) -***\nIt\u2019s been a good, long while since I\u2019ve reviewed a Leave It Off the Resume Movie. When I first started writing these things, I figured the pre-stardom embarrassments of major Hollywood names would be a regularly recurring theme, but for some reason it hasn\u2019t worked out that way. I\u2019ve seen a lot of has-been action over the years, but the closest I\u2019ve come lately to looking at dirty little secrets from the other end of the career arc was with Friday the 13th, which featured a relatively innocuous pre-stardom turn for Kevin Bacon and his butt-cheeks. But with The Return of Doctor X, I\u2019m returning to the fold in a big way; not since I covered Hercules in New York have I examined a comparably shameful skeleton from a comparably famous actor\u2019s closet. For in The Return of Doctor X, we have what is widely\u2014 and I\u2019d say rightly\u2014 regarded as the absolute nadir of Humphrey Bogart\u2019s career. Bogart, according to the story, hadn\u2019t been getting along with his masters at Warner Brothers around the time this film was made. Movies like Casablanca were still a couple of years in his future, and evidently the studio execs thought the actor was getting a little too big for his britches. The old-school studio system was in full effect in the late 30\u2019s, remember, and actors routinely signed contracts with studios not for a film or two here and there, but for entire careers. Legally speaking, these were regarded as ordinary employment contracts, with the studio as the boss and the actor as the hired hand. This, of course, meant that it was possible for the management of a studio to punish troublesome or unruly stars by forcing them to appear in crappy, unrewarding films, and that is just what Warner Brothers are said to have done to Bogart in 1939. Considering the heights of celebrity to which he would shortly rise, it stretches credulity to the uttermost limit to see him here, playing an undead mad scientist with an insatiable thirst for human blood.\nLike Doctor X, to which it is at least notionally a sequel, this movie begins with a reporter. This isn\u2019t Lee Taylor again, but rather a recent transplant from Wichita, Kansas, to New York City by the name of Walt Garrett (Wayne Morris, of The Smiling Ghost). When we meet him, Garrett is arranging to interview a non-specifically European \u201cstage star\u201d named Angela Merrova (Lya Lys) over at her suite in the Park Plaza Hotel\u2014 one suspects our hero is thinking he might also get a little action for himself out of this appointment. No such luck. In fact, when Garrett arrives at the girl\u2019s suite, he finds her dead of a ghastly stab-wound just below her heart. Now most of us would call the police in this situation, but Garrett, journalist to the very marrow, calls his editor instead to report the sensational scoop. So imagine Garrett\u2019s astonishment when the boss gives him the sack the next day because of all the trouble the reporter has caused: evidently, Miss Merrova is not only alive, but is suing the paper over the adverse publicity!\nObviously, something fishy is going on here, and Garrett\u2019s reporter\u2019s instincts won\u2019t let him meekly accept his dismissal from the staff of the newspaper. Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, Garrett pays a visit to a doctor friend of his named Mike Rhodes (Denis Morgan). He asks Rhodes if he can think of any explanation for what seems to have happened, but all the doctor will say is that the whole situation is patently impossible. When pressed, Rhodes agrees to ask one of his most trusted colleagues about it, but he\u2019s too busy for that sort of thing just now, as he\u2019s due in surgery in just a few minutes. There\u2019s an odd complication, however, in that the \u201cprofessional blood donor\u201d (were there really such things in 1939?!) who was scheduled to come in to help out with Rhodes\u2019s operation never shows up. This is a man of great professional integrity we\u2019re talking about here, and neither Rhodes nor Dr. Flegg (John Litel, from Flight to Mars and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea), the hematologist/surgeon Rhodes is going to be working with that morning, has ever known him to be late for an appointment, let alone skip out on one altogether. The donor has a very good reason for his absence, though; he\u2019s dead, and unlike Angela Merrova, he\u2019s going to be staying that way. What\u2019s more, when the detectives led by typically bellicose and incompetent Warner Brothers cop Roy Kincaid (Night Key\u2019s Charles C. Wilson) find him, the dead donor\u2019s body proves to be completely drained of blood. Strangest of all is the fact that there\u2019s scarcely any trace of spilled blood anywhere in the man\u2019s apartment.\nThere are a couple of drops, though, and the mystery deepens further when Rhodes takes them to the lab to examine them. The blood from the apartment tests out as being from blood group IV (type O in modern parlance), whereas the dead man was registered as having the much rarer group I (type AB). Furthermore, the mysterious blood looks incredibly strange under the microscope. It clearly isn\u2019t human, and indeed doesn\u2019t even look mammalian. In fact, if he didn\u2019t know such a thing were impossible, Rhodes would swear that the strange blood had been somehow manufactured. But when he and Garrett drop in on Dr. Flegg to ask his advice, the hematologist tells them the samples are just ordinary group-IV blood that has begun manifesting the natural changes that accompany coagulation. Flegg is clearly hiding something, though, and I\u2019d be willing to bet it has something to do with his sullen assistant, Dr. Quesne (Bogart, struggling mightily not to look like an ass with his heavy, Bela Lugosi-like vampire makeup and a bright white skunk-stripe dyed in his hair). Quesne becomes noticeably edgy when Rhodes starts talking to Flegg about the curious blood, and even gets so riled up that he crushes a beaker in his hand when Rhodes mentions the word \u201cartificial\u201d in connection with it.\nSo are any of you going to be surprised to learn that Flegg is also Angela Merrova\u2019s doctor? Of course not. And are any of you going to be surprised when Angela turns up dead\u2014 for real this time\u2014 a few scenes later? Again, of course not. What eventually leads everybody around to the ugly truth about everything is Garrett\u2019s certainty that he\u2019s seen Dr. Quesne somewhere before. He manages to talk his way into his former paper\u2019s clipping room, and after many an hour of surreptitious research, he stumbles upon a photo of Quesne in an article from two years back. Evidently, Dr. Quesne\u2019s real name is Xavier, and he made a big splash back in \u201837 when word got out that he starved a baby to death in the name of some sort of experiment. Xavier was caught by the police, convicted of first-degree murder, and sentenced to die in the electric chair. And if the last clipping in the file on Xavier is to be believed, that sentence was indeed carried out. Those of you who\u2019ve been watching these movies as long as I have know what\u2019s what at this point. Dr. Flegg had been working on a technique for reanimating the dead at the time of Xavier\u2019s execution, and he realized that this was a perfect opportunity to try his theories out on a human subject. (\u2018Cause we all know what a boon to mankind it would be to resuscitate a convicted baby-killer\u2026) He stole Xavier\u2019s body from the cemetery, hooked it up to his machines, and was ultimately successful in restoring him to life. But for some reason, the revived Dr. Xavier needed a complete change of blood in order to stay alive, and so Flegg set to work on an artificial blood substitute hoping that such a thing would be good enough to do the job. It wasn\u2019t, however, and now Xavier/Quesne has become a sort of technological vampire, killing people for their blood in order to stave off his own return to the grave. Angela Merrova had the blood type Xavier needs, and so was an obvious choice for a donor; when Flegg found out what his creation had done to the girl, he used an experimental new version of his synthetic blood in an attempt to save her, but the new formula proved no more effective than the old. Rhodes\u2019s \u201cprofessional blood donor\u201d also had blood compatible with Xavier\u2019s, and he was the next to go. And now that Garrett and Rhodes have it all figured out, they realize that a nurse named Joan Vance (Rosemarie Lane)\u2014 with whom Rhodes has just begun a tentative, semi-secret romance\u2014 is in danger. She, too, has the right type of blood.\nIt\u2019s all pretty silly, of course. To begin with, remember that what originally leads Rhodes and Garrett to Dr. Flegg is a blood sample of a different serotype from that of Xavier\u2019s victims. If he\u2019s killing people of only one specific blood group in order to fill his veins with stolen plasma, surely our high-tech vampire would select prey of his own blood type! And let\u2019s also note that this movie has nothing on Earth to do with the original Doctor X. Not only is this Dr. Xavier a completely different person from the other one, let us remember that the first Dr. X wasn\u2019t actually the killer at all in the preceding film. The in-name-only sequel is an established tradition these days (Cyborg 2, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, Silent Night, Deadly Night 5), but who knew it dated all the way back to 1939?\nBut of course, the real reason anyone is likely to be watching this today is for a chance to make fun of Humphrey Bogart in his hour of greatest indignity. And believe me, no matter how slick and suave and professional you are, there\u2019s just no way to be dignified when you\u2019ve got a skunk-stripe in your hair and you make your first appearance on the screen while stroking a flabby white rabbit in a somehow sinister manner. You\u2019ve got to give Bogart credit, though\u2014 he could have said, \u201cFuck this,\u201d and just hammed up a storm, but instead, he treated The Return of Doctor X like it was an actual movie.

This English man is blessed with the ability to produce various accents with his voice. Among the most common accents that can be heard from Andrew\u2019s lips are Australian, North England and Cockney. Andrew Bernard has spent most of his life in London where he received formal acting and vocal training at the Central School of Speech and Drama. He has worked on several voice-over projects for radio, film and video. He is the voice of authority for many documentaries and the unseen trainer on fitness videos. Andrew\u2019s magnificent voice has also been used to appeal to citizens across the world to give back to the less fortunate among us.\nBeyond his vocal talent, Andrew is a dramatic and comedic actor who captivates his audience with his natural ability to improvise. There is simply no dead air when this man is on stage or in front a camera. He is among the cast of many dramatic productions at the popular West End Theatre in London. He also played the lead role in many commercials such as Long Media\u2019s Handy Pad, Sander, Exast Saw and Arris Paper Cutter.\nAndrew Bernard is the live presenter to listen for hours because he is simply captivating. He has also appeared in several film productions such as the Drama TV film, Lords Don\u2019t Lie as Professor John Williams and BBC\u2019s Christmas Special as John. Real General Hospital Fans will not forget Andrew who plays Doctor Shaun. Andrew is currently the host of Extreme Makeover that is aired on the Sky channel. When he is not gainfully occupied in theatre and TV production, he is probably engaging in an intense motorcycle or car race.\n\u2190 Canada\u2019s Jennifer Matichuk\nBorn to be a Star- Nichola Fynn! \u2192\nSeptember 8, 2012 Amber Bollard Comments Off on Actress Marine Lanctuit from France finds her way in Hollywood\nAustralia\u2019s \u201cZebidy\u201d releases her new single \u201cCheap shot\u201d\nJuly 5, 2012 Amber Bollard Comments Off on Australia\u2019s \u201cZebidy\u201d releases her new single \u201cCheap shot\u201d",

This fundraiser is a collaborative effort between High County Beverage and Oskar Blues Brewery's CAN'd Aid Foundation, who have both previously teamed up to hold similar and successful charitable events in Colorado.\nPeople of all ages are welcome to stop by and lend a hand during the evening, and no previous bike-building skills are necessary. The goal is to build 60 bicycles, which will be presented to Irish Elementary on December 9. The brand new bikes built during the fundraiser will be given to students who may not have access to safe and durable bicycles otherwise.

Much of Peru's proved oil reserves are onshore, and the majority of these onshore reserves are in the Amazon region. Proved natural gas reserves in Peru were 12.7 trillion cubic feet, the fourth-largest in Central and South America, following Venezuela, Brazil, and Trinidad and Tobago.\nThe Ministry of Energy and Mines, is the central body and head of the Energy and Mining Sector, and made \u200b\u200ba part of the executive. The Ministry of Energy and Mines aims to formulate and evaluate, in harmony with the general policy and plans Government's national policies on sustainable development of mining activities - energy. Also, is the competent authority on environmental issues related to mining activities - energy. The Ministry of Energy and Mines is to promote the development of mining activities - energy, regulating, overseeing and / or supervising, as applicable, compliance, cautioning the rational use of natural resources in harmony with the environment.\nCrude oil production in Peru has been declining since the mid-1990s, but the country's total liquid fuels production has been bolstered by increased output of natural gas liquids (NGL). As a result, total liquid fuels production has steadily increased over the past decade to average 160,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2012, of which more than half was NGL.\nDry natural gas production in Peru has grown rapidly since the Camisea Gas Field went onstream in 2004, from 30 billion cubic feet (Bcf) that year to 401 Bcf in 2011.\nPeru became a natural gas exporter in 2010 when it brought online South America's first liquefied natural gas (LNG) plan, the Peru LNG Terminal\nPeru has six oil refineries with a total crude distillation capacity of almost 199,000 bbl/d. Repsol YPF operates the largest refinery in the country, the 108,000-bbl/d Refiner\u00eda La Pampilla Lima located in Lima.\nMost of the other refineries are owned by the state-owned company Petroperu, including Talara Refinery, Iquitos Refinery, Conchan Refinery and El Milagro Refinery\nThe exception is the small Refiner\u00eda Purcallpa\nThe much delayed Talara Refinery Upgrade Project, will see a major modernisation of this plant\nPeru, Country Analysis, EIA\nPerenco, Peru",

Feel fresh. Something new,\" Ariya said.\nAriya split with last year's caddie, Les Luark, and now has bagman Daniel Taylor, the fiancee of LPGA rival Pernilla Lindberg.\n\"So far pretty good in the last two days. I like him a lot,\" Ariya said. \"He really always has a good attitude, really helps me.\"\nAlso working on her game are long-time coaches Lynn Marriott and Pia Nilsson. Ariya has asked them to get her back to a 2016 mentality when she felt more free with her swing and game.\n\"I didn't have worries. I'm not scared about the outcome at all, and I don't have that feeling for, like, two years already,\" Ariya said. \"But how can I go back to have that feeling? So we're just working on that.\n\"At that time, everything was so new for me. I just took some lessons with Pia and Lynn about playing golf, commitment, everything, and I feel so fresh that time. But I've been doing that for so long, I didn't feel like it's fresh anymore. I didn't have that good commitment so I just feel like I have to do something fresh, try to learn every day.\"\nShe intends to hit more drivers this season, but that also means working on her wedge game.\n\"If I'm going to hit driver, I have to work on my wedge,\" Ariya said. \"My wedge has to get better, then I feel more comfortable to hit driver. I feel a lot better. I've been working on (wedge) the last two weeks.\"\nAnd she also wants to see more success from her 20th-ranked sister Moriya, who won her first LPGA crown last year to join Ariya in the champions-only opener.\n\"I feel great that she won her first tournament last year, and it means so much to me because all we do is work on just trying to reach our goal,\" Ariya said. \"Our goal is not only seeing me win a tournament but also seeing my sister win.\"\nKO LIKES CELEBRITY EVENT\nAlso in the hunt at the start is New Zealand's 14th-ranked Lydia Ko, who enjoys the celebrity atmosphere.\n\"This is a very unique event for us. We don't get that many opportunities to meet other athletes or celebrities and actors. So this is, I think, a really cool experience,\" Ko said.\nShe spent her first Christmas at her home in nearby Orlando after a December trip to South Korea.\n\"It's a little shorter off-season than what you would like, but I think this is such a cool startup to our season,\" Ko said.\n\"We've got a few more weeks before the Australian swing. It has been busy, but it has been fun. If it was this much travelling but this much fun, I think I would do it again.\"",

These types of waste present immediate or long-term risks to humans, animals, plants, or the environment and therefore require special handling for safe disposal. Landfills that can accept hazardous wastes are excavated or engineered sites where these special types of waste can be disposed of securely. Since landfills are permanent sites, special attention must be afforded in selecting the location. This paper investigated the use of the Boolean theory and Fuzzy logic in combination with Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods by applying GIS and IDRISI software for the selection of a hazardous waste landfill site in the Iranian province of Hormozgan. The best location was determined via the Fuzzy and the Boolean methodologies. By collating the area selected for the hazardous waste landfill, this study found that Fuzzy logic with an AND operator had the best options for this purpose. In the end, the most suitable area for a hazardous waste landfill was about 1.6 km2 which was obtained by employing Fuzzy in combination with AHP and by using an AND operator. In addition, all the fundamental criteria affecting the landfill location were considered.\nHazardous waste; Landfill sitting; Analytic Hierarchy Process; Fuzzy logic; waste management\n[31] Karkazi, A., Hatzichristos, T., Emmanouilidi, B., & Mavropoulos, A.

        "raw_content": "Knife Crime Is More Than A Postcode War\nby Denzel Eggerue\nWithin 24 hours of entering the New Year, there were 4 fatal stabbings across London. Incidents like this are not new to the city, but knife crime has admittedly been on an upward rise; in 2017, there were 80 fatal stabbings in London and a 24% rise in knife crimes from 2016-2017. It is easy to pore through heaps of numbers and reduce these lost lives to a mere statistic, but what is evident is that knife crime is becoming inexorably prevalent in the capital.\nPeople often call for harsher punishments regarding knife crime and this tends to come from a place of outrage. What people fail to acknowledge is that harsher sentences for possession of a knife don\u2019t act as a deterrent, because the reason why that person felt the need to carry a knife has not been addressed. A child steals food because they were hungry, so you lock them in a room as punishment hoping they don\u2019t steal food again, but have you addressed why they\u2019re hungry?\nAcross a span of six years, approximately \u00a3400M has been slashed from youth services across the country and this has consequently translated to a rise in crime amongst young people. The fact of the matter is that these youth clubs gave young people an opportunity to stay out of trouble and be productive with their time outside of school. Now that they have nowhere to go, they are more susceptible to straying onto a path of knife crime.\nYouth service expenditure cuts \u2013 via Unison\nKnife crime is an extremely convoluted issue, simply because there are too many contributing factors. The most over-looked factor is the socio-political climate within black and minority ethnic communities. Funding cuts to public schools have been cloaked under Tories\u2019 purported educational reforms, as the money they intend to allocate to public schools essentially comes down to nothing, when you factor in the current rate of inflation. In the worst case scenario, this cut in funding could potentially equate to youths coming out of education with less credentials than their predecessors and therefore decreasing their access to employment. No access to jobs means no money and no money means no house or food. People will turn to alternative methods to survive, even if it means crime.\nKnife crime in London disproportionately affects black men because the fact of the matter is that they don\u2019t have access to the help they need. Stories are constantly published in newspapers depicting black youths as feral criminals who know nothing more than to stab each other; but has anyone ever stopped to think why black men are affected by knife crime disproportionately in London, when BME citizens are approximately 41% of London\u2019s population?\nComposition of London\u2019s population \u2013 via Trust For London\nThe only way London will see a decrease in knife crime is when initiatives are introduced to prevent youths from feeling the need to carry knives. Youths who carry knives in the name of protection do so because they can\u2019t confide in the police to protect them. There is a disconnect between the police and youths, not just because of the archaic \u2018fuck the police\u2019 mentality, but because police have not found a way to gain the trust of young people. The average teenager in London will have their first interaction with a police officer in a negative light, whether it be a stop and search or questionable dialogue derived from racial profiling.\nBy addressing the reasons why young people feel the need to carry knives, the problem will fix itself. Sending a 16 year-old to jail for 25 years for possession will not stop them from doing so again once they get out because they are returning to the same malevolent environment that caused them to carry in the first place. As an individual who knows the people that carry and even some of which have been stabbed themselves, it is clear as day that harsher punishments will do nothing.\nRather than criminalizing the youths that pick up knives, we should look at the criminals in parliament that perpetuate the conditions for young people to continue killing each other.\nPrevious Post Veganism Won\u2019t Save the World\nNext Post Recent Revelations about the Attempted Terrorist Attack on an Amtrak Train in October\nDenzel Eggerue\n17.

Why is this information of such importance? Jesus Christ stated:\n\u201cfor by your words you will be declared righteous, and by your words you will be condemned.\u201d (Matthew 12:37)\nYou need not be reluctant to examine what the Watchtower has actually published about blood subject in the past. Most of this information can be found on the Watchtower\u2019s CD-ROM Library, or in your local Kingdom Hall Library. You just have to know where to look. Also of note is this comment by the Watchtower:\n\u201c\u2026Their zeal for knowledge may even prompt them to dig back into things that were published long before they came into the truth, expanding and deepening their understanding, and ever growing in Christian maturity\u2026 Do you dig out older publications to expand and deepen your knowledge on subjects about which questions arise? Have you really studied these earlier publications?\u2026 How is your background of knowledge? \u2026 Never think: \u201cOh, I know most of that.\u201d For you will find, indeed, that you do not and that you will be strengthened by your additional study\u2026once you have completed your study of them you can then look to even older publications\u2026 Only by studying earlier publications and digging back through previous issues of The Watchtower kept in the library at your local Kingdom Hall. There is much in the way of spiritual riches and aids toward mature knowledge in these earlier publications, and their study is most certainly worth your time.\u201d *** w57 5/15 313-5 Appreciating Basic Christian Publications *** (Emphasis ours).\nClearly, the Watchtower encourages you to dig into and study the earlier publications. We agree that this is important if you are to truly understand the blood issue. These pages contain some editorial comments that are clearly marked in red to help you recognize doctrinal shifts. For clarity we have emphasized certain portions using boldface font. These sections are clearly marked. We have endeavored to be comprehensive, but not exhaustive.

        "raw_content": "Mr. Main Event James Morgan retires from Wrestling\n3 years ago ZetaProject\nLast night at the Red Carpet Rumble, James \u201cMain Event\u201d Morgan (a man that I call friend) was unable to defeat Tyler Bateman and was forced to retire. Bateman had defeated Morgan earlier in the year to win the United Wrestling Network Television Championship (still the only singles title that bares the name United). Morgan was bent on winning his prized championship back, even if it met leveraging his career to do so. And in a series of unfortunate events, Morgan was defeated and forced to retire.\nJames Morgan\u2019s career started off as the Red Tornado some 17 years earlier while training at the Legendary School of Hard Knocks. James began training for a career in professional wrestling as a fifteen-year-old . Jesse Hernandez (the school proprietor) was responsible for launching the careers of Frankie Kazarian, WWE\u2019s Melina, Shelly Martinez, Rocky Romero, Ricky Reyes, Joey Ryan, TJ Perkins and countless others. As Red Tornado, James competed mostly for the Empire Wrestling Federation (the wrestling promotion connected to the School of Hard Knocks). While competing, he became a cruiserweight champion and a tag team champion.\nMorgan would take a brief sabbatical from wrestling, focusing on his career in the medical profession of a few years, but the bug returned to him, when Mach-1 Wrestling opened up shop. The James Morgan that debuted for M1W was a changed man. His physical prowess greater and his abilities in the ring never better. Morgan was a two time Mach-1 Heavyweight Champion. His first reign as champion he would defend against the likes of Scorpio Sky, Paul London, and \u201cPretty\u201d Peter Avalon before eventually losing the title to Australia\u2019s own Bobby Jo Marshall. Eventually Willie Mack would win the M1W title, which would set up one of the biggest feuds in M1W, Mack vs. Morgan. The two would clash over that title multiple times with Morgan eventually winning the championship and adopting Christian Cole as his manager and being ingrained in the Cole-lition. Morgan continued to have success as the top man in Mach-1 Wrestling and would begin to feud with upstart Nick Madrid. All was going right with Morgan, until an in ring injury nearly ended his career back in 2012. After his broken collarbone healed, Morgan would return to the ring.\nNow known as the Main Event, James Morgan would begin to work for Championship Wrestling from Hollywood as a broadcaster and later as an in-ring talent. As a broadcaster Morgan developed a relationship with Stu Stone that led to the creation of the Family Stone. While actively competing for both CWFH, Mach-1 (both affiliated with the NWA), Morgan would go on to compete for the short lived Mayhem Wrestling Entertainment becoming it\u2019s final champion before their doors closed. It wasn\u2019t until Morgan broke free of his ties to the Family Stone that he would achieve his greatest level of success in CWFH, winning the vacant United Wrestling Network Television Championship. Morgan was a fighting champion, having defended against the likes of Alexander Hammerstone, Rocky Romero, and a bevy of others. Morgan\u2019s reign came to an end May 15th. And he wrestled his final match, in front of a packed Oceanview Pavilion, in front of his father and wife. Everyone at Alliance-Wrestling.com would like to wish James Morgan all the best, the Main Event is over, but the Doctor is in.\nTags: Championship Wrestling from Hollywood, CWFH, Empire Wrestling Federation, EWF, James Morgan, M1W Champion, Mach-1 Wrestling, Mav-TV Champion, The Family Stone, United TV Champion, United Wrestling Network\nNext NWA: New National Champion",

        "raw_content": "Title Kepler - preliminary diagram relating to the orbits of Saturn and Jupiter, from Mysterium cosmographicum\nDescription With this first diagram, Kepler thought that he had discovered the key to unlocking a geometrical secret about the creation of the universe. His education at the university of Tubingen with Michael Maestlin had already convinced him of the truth of the Copernican system, and starting in 1595, he was trying to explain the relationship among the distances of the planets from the sun and the length of their revolutionaround the sun. The diagram came to Kepler as a revelation. As he was explaining some astrological matters to his students, he drew triangles inscribed in the same circle - or nearly triangles since the end of one made up the beginning of the next one. The crossing points of these triangles formed another circle, half the size of the first one. That proportion, he realized, was the same as the proportion between the orbits of Saturn and Jupiter. The importance of the Mysterium Cosmographicum doesn't lie in its scientific value, but more in Kepler's processes since he didn't just present the result of his researches (such as the world system inscribed in the five regular bodies, which he considered at that time as an real achievement in favor of the Copernican system), but he also shows to the reader all his beginnings and errors, as it is the case with that diagram.",

Masselin (fl.1859-1892)\nBaron \u00c9mile Bernard-Jules Legoux (1836-1908)\nCast iron, square-section, length of fluted railing (10cm (4in) long) mounted into a green baize covered wooden plinth applied with a 19th century gilt metal plaque inscribed: \u2018Fragment / de la grille du Tombeau de / l\u2019Empereur Napol\u00e9on / a Sainte Helene rapporte / en 1860 par le Capitaine du Genie depuis General Masselin / donn\u00e9 par lui / au Baron Jules Legoux.\u2019 Sold with a note concerning the railing in Masselin\u2019s hand.\nSoon after seizing power by coup d\u2019etat in 1851, Prince Louis-Napol\u00e9on (afterwards Napoleon III) received reports of the neglect effecting Longwood House and Napoleon I\u2019s empty tomb on St Helena. In 1840 King Louis Phillipe in an attempt to garner popular support for the doomed monarchy initiated the return of Napoleon I to France for burial in Les Invalides. The St Helena tomb meanwhile reverted to the ownership of the East India Company and later the British Crown, causing Napoleon III in 1854 to open negotiations for their purchase. A price of \u00a37,100 was agreed and the sale to the French Government was completed in 1859. The following year Captain E.F. Masselin of the 3rd Engineer Regiment was despatched to St Helena with two soldiers to repair both house and tomb. During the work which took two years Masselin, besides pocketing the present piece of railing, also sent with considerable ceremony a stone from the tomb to Washington D.C. to be included in the construction of the Washington Monument. (see http://www.nytimes.com/1860/03/03/news/the-washington-monument-a-stone-from-napoleon-s-tomb.html)\nFittingly Masselin later presented the present relic to Baron Jules Legoux, who, as leader of the Bonapartist faction in the 1890s, strove to overthrow the floundering Third Republic and resurrect Imperial rule under his \u2018intimate friend\u2019 Prince Victor Napol\u00e9on (1862-1926) aka Napoleon V. With France already bitterly and lastingly divided over the Dreyfus Affair, Legoux, who believed he carried the support of the officer corps at least, declared in Brussels, \u2018The vigil is over. The hour of combat is about to sound. The moment has come when Napoleon will be in our midst and the tricolour flag will be crowned with an Imperial Eagle.\u2019 As it was the anticipated outbreak in France did not materialise and the Third Republic survived one of its gravest crises.",

Global campaigners and support groups are supporting this effort to make 1st - 7th April \"Global Asbestos Awareness Week\".\nAccording to the UK HSE asbestos exposure is responsible for 4,500 deaths a year in the UK and 107,000 deaths worldwide. Asbestos related diseases can take up to 30 years to appear after initial exposure. The death rate is split failry evenly between those working directly with asbestos and those with indirect or less obvious exposure such as teachers, surveyors, architects and the family members of tradesmen who have carried asbestos home on their clothing.\nWhilst asbestos has been banned from use in many countries around the world there are still many who activley use it such as India, China, Brazil, Thailand and more. However the banning of asbestos has not eradicated the problem of exposure.\nThe legacy of 100 of years of asbestos use poses a daily threat to those who might disturb it such as tradesmen and DIYers and also to those who might be exposed in their workplace to old asbestos that is deteriorating such as in public buildings, schools, hospitals etc.\nAsbestos is still a problem. Asbestos is still a killer. It has been predicted it could claim the lives of 2,000 ,000 people worldwide by 2030.\nRaising awareness across all levels of industry and society is vital to protect ourselves and future generations who may falsely assume that asbestos no longer poses a threat.",

More than any of other luminaries whom we\u2019ve lost in recent weeks \u2014 more than Bettie Page, more (I would argue) than Forrie Ackerman \u2014 Ms. Barrett-Roddenberry was an icon of the kind of genre fandom that has infused Western pop culture. As Nurse Chapel, she gave us occasion to see that the unflappable Mr. Spock was on occasion flappable (and gave hope to us socially-maladaptive types with bad haircuts that hot blondes would nonetheless throw themselves at us). As the universal voice of Starfleet computers, she infused our conception of computers with a personality that is still absent from our constantly used desktops (Clippy notwithstanding). As a partner to her husband Gene Roddenberry, she fostered a view of the future that, though inconsistent, maintained a certain spark that somehow attracted masses. As Lwaxana Troi, she brought a big shit-eating grin to Commander Riker\u2019s face when she appeared naked for her own wedding, dressed only in earrings and a saucy smile.\nGoodbye, Ms. Barrett-Roddenberry. You go not alone into the next realm; a part of the childhood of everyone in a broad demographic travels with you.\nThanks for doing that, Nathan. It\u2019s been a brutal few weeks, hasn\u2019t it? I find myself particularly upset by this blow. Coincidentally, I had just watched Menage A Troi, so my abiding image of Majel is her perched on Patrick Stewart\u2019s knee, after JLP is forced into one of the greatest soliloquies in television history. I may say, too, that I was always entirely sympathetic in the matter of Christine Chapel\u2019s obsession with Spock. I\u2019m glad that she was able to participate in the new movie.\n#2 by Dave Causey on December 19, 2008 - 7:52 pm\nR.I.P.,Ma\u2019am. You will indeed be missed.

We are not yet in a position where we can say the IMF is ready to go ahead with a Fund financed program, but we are hopeful that we will get to that point by the end of the year. .. IMF\nTranscript of a Press Briefing with William Murray, Deputy Spokesman, Communications Department Washington, D.C. June 2, 2016\nQUESTIONER: Can you please give us a timetable of your next moves on Greece? I mean how you plan to deal with the Greek issue until the end of the year when as Poul Thomsen said, he might go to the Board?\nMR. MURRAY: Okay, thanks. Let me preface my remarks on Greece to say I really don't have anything fresh since you were briefed last week following the Eurogroup meeting. I mean it's really -- things are where they stand, so I don't have a specific timeline to offer at the moment beyond what we indicated last week was a possible timeline. Just want to make these points though, we remain fully and actively engaged with our European partners and with Greece, and I just want to remind you of basically the following points, and this is what we mentioned last week following the Eurogroup meeting in Brussels. Debt relief is firmly on the agenda now. Debt relief, we have agreed would be contingent on Greece meeting targets during its three economic programs with Europe, and that it should be fully delivered by the end of the program period. We are not yet in a position where we can say the IMF is ready to go ahead with a Fund financed program, but we are hopeful that we will get to that point by the end of the year. Bottom line overall, significant progress has been made.\nQUESTIONER: As an IMF official mentioned one week ago the debt measures will be finally approved with the last review. I mean that's in the best case scenario but it means in two years from now. Are you satisfied with that?\nMR. MURRAY: You know, as I mentioned, debt relief is firmly on the agenda and that we agreed that it would be contingent on Greece meeting targets during its three-year program with Europe and that it would be delivered by the end of the program. So that's where we stand.\nQUESTIONER: (inaudible). On the details of the debt relief, the German Finance Minister said basically that the debt relief proposal of the IMF could fuel populist movements in the sense that it could undermine the trust that the population in Europe have placed in their governments because basically it would mean that maybe the Greek debt will never be repaid. How do you react to that and what does it say about the gap that still exists between the IMF and Germany on the debt relief proposals?\nMR. MURRAY: Yeah, I don't have anything specific on that. I'm not fully versed in what that comment may imply or might have been. You know, our bottom line is we published a DSA, we're going to update that, you know that. We will update that at some point this year. But our debt sustainability analysis has been pretty clear on what we think about the sustainability of Greece's debt and that it does need significant debt relief in some fashion. What form that takes, how it's structured, all those things remain to be determined. That's really between the Greek government and its European partners. That's things that are being worked at as we speak. Beyond that I can't really say. We're fully engaged, we're keeping an eye on the situation, we're actively involved, but beyond that I can't really comment on implications of things that aren't settled yet.\nQUESTIONER: Just to follow up -- sorry -- but are you at least concerned about the fact that Germany is still really far from your position on the debt relief?\nMR. MURRAY: I don't have a sense of that. Like I said, debt relief is firmly on the agenda now and that means on the agenda of everyone.\nQUESTIONER: Are you confident that the debt measures that the debt measures of the Europeans will eventually come up with -- will actually be consistent with what you've believe is needed for debt sustainability? That's a most important issue.\nMR. MURRAY: I can't really comment on this. You're asking me to speculate about an end product, but the end product should be Greece is in a sustainable position. So we're confident that's where we'll end up.\nQUESTIONER: (Inaudible) do have to ask that.\nMR. MURRAY: Sure.\nQUESTIONER: Do you want to address this report that Mr. Thomsen was against the agreement and Mrs. Lagarde in favor of the agreement? Are they on the same boat on the Greek program? Because according to some colleagues on Brussels, Mr. Thomsen was furious after the Eurogroup meeting.\nMR. MURRAY: I'm not aware of anything on that. I can't help you out. [On June 27 the IMF had issued this press line in response to a similar Reuters query: \u201cThe suggestion of \u2018overruling\u2019 is nonsense. The parameters of our negotiation positions are, as always, discussed and agreed in advance. Of course, Poul [Thomsen] consulted with the Managing Director before reaching final agreement with the Eurogroup--as is typical in such cases. The Managing Director fully backed Poul\u2019s position.\u201d]\nLet's not do too much on Greece because as I said we don't really have anything fresh today to offer you beyond what we said last week following the Eurogroup. I'll give one more -- please -- two more Greek questions? Okay. Let's go with the lady here and then we'll go to you, sir. Thank you.\nQUESTIONER: I do have two questions actually. So one is the exceptional access that Greece is under at the moment is projected to fall below that line with the period up to the end of the year. So would you expect that the Greek program in order for you to sign off to that might not need -- if you don't need the exception access debt restructuring at all? Could you envision such a scenario?\nThat's one question.\nMR. MURRAY: Okay. You want to hit me with the other question or do you want me to take that one first? Okay, I'll take this one first.\nYou're correct that the current trajectory will get it below the threshold. You mentioned beyond that, I don't really have anything. I can't give you any steer on what that will mean by year end. What we said last week, just to remind what I just said, is that if everything falls into place we could be in a position to have a Fund program brought to the Board by the end of the year, but beyond that -- that's the only end of year feature I can touch on right now.\nSecond question, sure.\nQUESTIONER: As far as I understand the IMF at the Eurogroup signed off basically to the completion of the review based on what the Greek authorities had brought to the table and promised to do, but not on the debt relief. So basically that the Europeans were proposing. So is it true, is it correct kind of get from that that no further measures are needed from the Greek side and nothing more is needed by the IMF that is not currently at the Eurogroup agreed in order for this review to be completed?\nMR. MURRAY: I really -- that's -- no, I think right now what we're working on is the European partners and Greece is working on its program, finalizing the details of its program. So until that's done you really should talk to the Europeans, I mean first of all about the nitty gritty of the program that they're working on. I don't have blow-by-blow on that. It's really up the Europeans to elaborate on where things stand.\nOnce we get through that process that gives you part of the calculus and will help determine our relationship, the Fund's specific relationship with the Greeks going forward. But we have to get through this process right now, which is really pretty much European focused. Beyond that I can't elaborate.\nThe gentleman in the back.\nQUESTIONER: We learned a couple of months ago that Greece is the big receiver of technical support of the IMF and especially regarding tax collecting. So what did we learn from your report a couple of weeks ago, that there hasn't been any progress in tax collecting in Greece. What went wrong? That's the first question.\nThe second question is I'm looking at the interview Obstfeld gave and there is one sentence that crossed my mind, like curiosity, and it says, and I quote, \"Of course there are limits\" -- it's regarding austerity -- \"Of course there are limits to the pain economies can or should sustain. So in special difficult cases we recommend debt re-profiling. And that is an approach we are currently recommending Greece.\" Does that mean that poor people in Greece are worse off than a lot of other poor people in countries with higher debt problems?\nMR. MURRAY: Okay. Your first -- this is the interview in which newspaper? It's a German newspaper, correct? Is that \u2013\nQUESTIONER: No, the one where he gave to \u2013\nMR. MURRAY: I just want it for the record just so everybody knows which interview we're talking about.\nQUESTIONER: What you are spreading today.\nMR. MURRAY: Oh, you're talking about the IMF survey interview today?\nQUESTIONER: Survey, yes.\nMR. MURRAY: Okay. Sorry. Let me step back a second on that. Thank you very much. For viewers, we are releasing today a brief IMF survey. It's going to be released publicly at 10:30 a.m. our time, 14:30 GMT.\nSo I really am not going to try to elaborate upon what our Chief Economist states in this interview. I mean, look, we can get back to you with more detail, but I'm not prepared to give you comparatives between Greece and other countries and the state of poor in the various European countries. I'm sorry I'm not prepared to offer you a comment on that.\nRemind me of your first question.\nQUESTIONER: Tax collection.\nMR. MURRAY: Tax collection, yeah. I'm going to have to look at the TA reports, but tax collection technical assistance is something that we do worldwide, so it's not just in Greece. That's one of the things we specialize in, working with taxing authorities and revenue authorities in our member countries and how to improve their systems and their tax collection mechanisms. It's not the policy, it's the actual physical way they collect taxes, how they collect them and how they are made more efficient in terms of their tax collection. So our TA is not a reflection -- you can't connect our TA with the quality of tax revenues just yet in Greece. It's a building block process, it's underway. Beyond that I really don't have anything to offer you on the quality of tax collection in Greece. There's a lot of challenges. We've been clear on that since we engaged in a formal program relationship with the Greek authorities. We don't have a program right now, but TA is something that we have with non-program countries as well and something -- the fact that they're seeking technical assistance from us is indicative of their hope to improve tax collection. So I think it's positive that they're engaged with us in that respect.\nI think that's all I can get into on Greece at the moment.",

        "title": "Battle of Newbury (1644) | First English Civil War | Wars of Three Kingdoms",
        "raw_content": "SECOND BATTLE OF NEWBURY (1644)\nIn late Summer 1644 Donnington Castle, a key Royalist outpost protecting Oxford, was besieged by Parliamentary forces. King Charles moved his army to relieve the garrison prompting Parliament to merge their three field armies and converge on Donnington. The Battle of Newbury (1644) should have been an easy victory for Parliament but, hampered by its three Generals, ultimately ended in failure.\nDonnington Castle was captured by the Royalists in late 1643 in the aftermath of the first Battle of Newbury. With nearby Oxford serving as the Royalist capital for the duration of the First Civil War, Donnington became a key outpost for the protection of the southern approaches to that city. Substantive earthworks were dug around the structure converting the small medieval castle into a formidable fortress.\nAs part of their campaign to place pressure on Oxford, Parliamentary forces attacked Donnington in Summer 1644. Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex detached a 3,000 strong force of cavalry and dragoons under Lieutenant-General John Middleton to reduce the garrison. A direct assault was attempted on 31 July 1644 but, lacking artillery support, failed with heavy casualties. Unable to storm the castle, Parliamentary forces besieged it; this was in place by the end of September under the supervision of Colonel Jeremy Horton. Donnington was not the only Royalist outposts so contained as nearby Banbury and Basing House were also now under close siege. Feeling the pressure on his Oxford redoubt, King Charles resolved to relieve them. To counter him Parliament had three separate armies in the field all of which were smaller than the King's force:\n- Edward Montagu, Earl of Manchester with his deputy Oliver Cromwell\n- Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex with his infantry under Sir Phillip Skippon\n- Sir William Waller with William Balfour commanding his cavalry\nThe relief of Basing House, rather than Donnington, was the King's primary concern as the shortage of supplies there were critical. However Parliament had decided to merge its three armies into one huge force and they had rendezvoused at Basingstoke. Nearby Basing House was now an impossible target for the King so instead he turned his attention towards relief of Donnington. The Parliamentary force, plagued with leadership issues as the three Generals refused to recognise a single leader, moved towards Newbury to intercept him.\nThe combined Parliamentary forces numbered around 19,000 - almost double the size of the Royalist force.\nThe Parliamentary forces arrived in the area on 26 October 1644 and spent the remainder of that day deploying. The battle itself was fought on 27 October 1644.\n- Day 1 / Stage 1: Deployment\nThe King's forces had established themselves in a strong defensive position adjacent to Donnington Castle. They were protected to the south by the River Kennet, on the east by the River Lambourn and to the north the powerful guns of the castle covered their position. A frontal attack on the Royalists seemed futile so the three Parliamentary Generals agreed one of the more imaginative battlefield strategies of the war. Whilst Manchester would stay on Clay Hill and mount a diversionary attack the following morning, a large force under Waller would skirt around the Royalist position and attack from the west.\n- Day 1 / Stage 2: Flanking Manoeuvre\nIn accordance with the plan, on the evening of the 26 October, Waller detached from the main army in order to mount an attack from the west. He took his own cavalry with him, Essex's force (cavalry under Balfour and infantry) plus Manchester's horse (under Cromwell). In the Royalist camp however Prince Maurice correctly anticipated the Parliamentary move and turned his forces about and started digging in around the village of Speen.\n- Day 2 / Stage 1: Shaw House\nThe following morning, Manchester launched a diversionary attack on Shaw House (held by Sir George Lisle). It was supposed to be a feint to enable Waller to move into position unobserved but it failed on two counts. Firstly the Royalists were not misled as they had noticed the withdrawal of a significant portion of the Parliamentary forces (hence why Maurice dug in at Speen) and second the attack on Shaw House was pushed with too much vigour. What was supposed to be a diversionary attack turned into a full frontal assault on the well defended position costing many lives and exhausting Manchester's force. He was now unable to support a combined substantive attack in co-ordination with Waller in the west.\n- Day 2 / Stage 2: Cavalry Attack\nMeanwhile Waller's assault force had been harassed by Royalist attackers as they crossed the River Lambourn at Boxford and remained under periodic attack thereafter. Accordingly it was 2pm before they were in position to the west of Speen and, as the enclosed fields and narrow lanes hampered their deployment, it was much later in the afternoon before they were ready to attack. When they did so, the Parliamentary cavalry immediately ran into difficulties. Cromwell on the left struggled to negotiate the enclosed fields and was charged first by the Earl of Cleveland and then broken by Lord Goring. The situation was even worse on the Parliament right; Balfour was also struggling with the terrain and was charged by Bennet whose position on the open fields enabled him to mount a traditional and effective attack. On both flanks the Parliamentary cavalry had been defeated.\n- Day 2 / Stage 3: Infantry Attack\nConcurrent with the cavalry battle, Waller sent his infantry forward and here the Parliamentarians had more success. Under Skippon, the infantry advanced and quickly dislodged Maurice's force with fighting continuing through the streets of Speen capturing Royalist artillery as they advanced. Of note these were originally Parliamentary cannons captured by the Royalists at the earlier Battle of Lostwithiel (1644).\n- Day 2 / Stage 4: Donnington Castle\nThe success of the Parliamentary infantry came to a shuddering halt when they came under fierce fire from Donnington Castle. The situation on the western side of the battlefield could have been mitigated by a timely coordinated attack, as had been planned, by the eastern forces under Manchester. However the Earl's view of the field was hampered by low cloud and he did not move probably due to his forces being exhausted after the extended attack on Shaw House earlier that day.\n- Day 2 / Stage 5: Manchester Attacks\nIt took the bulk of the day for Manchester's force to recover from the attack on Shaw House that morning and it was not until dusk that he was able to rally his forces. Once again he attacked the Royalist defenders at Shaw House but by then it was too late; Waller's attack in the west had long since stalled and failed. As with the earlier attack, Manchester made little progress against Shaw House; Lisle led his forces to repulse the assault and, as darkness approached, the fighting across the battlefield died down.\n- Day 2 / Stage 6: Royalists Withdraw\nUnder the cover of night the Royalists, noting they were heavily outnumbered, withdrew across the River Lambourn leaving their guns at Donnington Castle. Overall casualties from the battle were around 2,000 killed/wounded for Parliament and 1,500 for the Royalists.\nThe greater numbers of the Parliamentary force had ensured it was them, rather than the King, who remained on the field in the wake of the battle. But the King's objective of relieving Donnington Castle had been achieved and the Royalist army had escaped unscathed. More significantly the combined forces of the three armies - that of Manchester, Waller and Essex - was hampered by the competing interests and political aspirations of the three Generals. In the bickering and political fighting that followed the battle, the Self Denying Ordnance was passed (see below); legislation barring individuals from being a Member of Parliament and holding military rank. In one stroke the army would now be commanded by professional soldiers rather than the nobility. Furthermore the army was re-configured based on a new model of a single fighting force with defined regimental sizes, a standardised uniform and fixed musket/pike ratio. This 'New Model Army' was the most significant outcome of the Second Battle of Newbury and eight months later would see action at Naseby.\nFollowing the Second Battle of Newbury it became clear the command and control of the Parliamentary armies had become untenable. When the three armies of the Earls of Manchester and Essex plus that of Sir William Waller were merged, the competing leaders squabbled and only became partially functional when they formed a \u2018council of equals\u2019. Just weeks after the battle the issue came to a head when the Earl of Manchester criticised the conduct of his second-in-command, Oliver Cromwell. There was some justification as Cromwell had been roundly defeated at Donnington but the motivation for criticism was religious/political; Manchester supported the Presbyterian church whereas Cromwell was an Independent.\nCromwell defended himself by proposing the self denying ordnance; a measure whereby everyone should deny private ambitions for the public good. This manifested itself into legislation barring anyone from military office and Parliament. This hit the nobility \u2013 Manchester and Essex in particular \u2013 as there was no mechanism or ability for them to resign from the House of Lords. By contrast the MPs of the House of Commons could resign (although Cromwell would by-pass this legislation by a series of temporary commissions). In one stroke the nobility lost control of the army paving the way for professional soldiers such as Sir Thomas Fairfax and Oliver Cromwell himself to command the army. The new command would be tested at Naseby the following year.\nDonnington Castle should be the focus of any visit to the battlefield. This was demolished after the war but the Gatehouse survives as do the earthworks dug around the castle during the civil war. From the castle the landscape of the battle can be appreciated. Speen is now extensively developed.\nDonnington Castle. Sir Richard Abberbury the Elder, chamberlain to the English Queen and a resident of Berkshire and Oxfordshire, was given permission to convert his existing manor house in Donnington into a castle by Richard II in 1386. Well situated upon a hill overlooking Newbury and the River Lambourne the design was undoubtedly heavily influenced by the existing structure. Built as a small rectangular castle with round towers at each corner and a further square turret on the North and South curtain walls it also had a single, but very impressive, twin-towered gatehouse constructed on the Eastern side.\nView to the south of Donnington Castle on which ground the Second Battle of Newbury was fought.\nThe castle is found to the north of Donnington and is sign-posted. There is a dedicated car park but note access is automatically barred by an electronic gate that closes at 7pm and doesn\u2019t re-open until 7am. Pedestrian access is possible outside these times but car parking elsewhere is difficult.",

        "raw_content": "C\u00c9CILE B. EVANS AND ANDREW SNYDER-BEATTIE\nAndrew Snyder-Beattie is Director of Research at the Future of Humanity Institute, a multidisciplinary research institute at the University of Oxford that aims \u201cto bear on big-picture questions about humanity and its prospects.\u201d The following is an excerpt from one of multiple conversations between artist C\u00e9cile B. Evans and Snyder-Beattie (in 2015) about who gets to be a part of humanity\u2019s future\u2014or if there even will be one. All views expressed are explicitly Snyder-Beattie\u2019s own.\nC\u00e9cile B. Evans: I was watching philosopher Nick Bostrom, the Director of the Future of Humanity Institute, presenting the department at Oxford in 2010. He started his lecture with Pieter Bruegel\u2019s painting of Icarus flying too close to the sun. The gods tell Icarus, \u201cIf you fly too close to the sun, your wings will melt and you\u2019ll fall back to Earth and die.\u201d Bostrom breaks down three different interpretations of the painting itself. The hubris interpretation: people are too confident. The indifference interpretation: people are selfish assholes\u2014you can tell this by the workers in the painting who pay no mind to Icarus\u2019 demise. And the obliviousness interpretation: people are completely ignorant to larger factors at play\u2014here the gods and demigods\u2014and continue to toil away. Any one of these three positions could be argued correctly or incorrectly. At what point do you know which interpretation to choose and act upon? What happens after you\u2019ve made that choice?\nAndrew Snyder-Beattie: Wow, OK.\nCBE: We\u2019ve spoken about this before. I understand scientifically why a neurologist has to make certain choices and act upon them\u2014a person\u2019s life is at stake. But as a plebe ingesting a constant influx of choices and positions, I often feel an impossibility of choice. Whereas you confidently say it\u2019s important, for yourself, to make one choice and continue, as otherwise nothing would ever get done.\nASB: Well, I don\u2019t know about \u201cconfidently.\u201d Something came into my head when you were telling the story about Icarus: the Future of Humanity Institute sometimes gets a lot of flack for being \u201cagainst technology\u201d or is basically accused of being Luddite. And I find that amusing because there\u2019s a strong transhumanist undercurrent in a lot of our thought. There are intuitions saying there\u2019s a natural order of things, and that humanity shouldn\u2019t disrupt this natural order. Icarus in some ways embodies this. He tries to do something ambitious and gets burned for it. I would look at this problem, pick it apart, and ask, \u201cWhat are the possible outcomes, and how good or bad are those outcomes?\u201d And \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d probably shouldn\u2019t rely just on what nature has given us. This is a long way of saying that there are certain technologies\u2014like anti-aging technology\u2014which people use as examples for bringing up the hubris interpretation by saying it\u2019s ridiculous for people to be working to cure death; it\u2019s not natural. That this is the peak of hubris.\nCBE: Right.\nASB: I\u2019m inclined to say: Throw a bunch of thought experiments at it. Is this something that you\u2019re really willing to accept? Nick Bostrom, Director of the Future of Humanity Institute, and Research Fellow Toby Ord use a classic reversal test: Imagine the status quo as the opposite. Let\u2019s imagine we live in a world in which every generation lives five years longer than the previous generation. But unfortunately, that\u2019s not the natural order of things. If we implemented a euthanasia plan, we could save one trillion dollars, each generation. Would you just start killing people at the end of their eighty years in order to save this money? No one would do that! It would be considered totally inhumane.\nAnd then, in contrast, let\u2019s say we invest a trillion dollars in anti-aging research. We could then achieve five years of extra life in each generation. People would suddenly say that\u2019s ridiculous. So it seems odd to have different answers to these two different thought experiments. It seems like we should be in a similar situation in response to these two ideas.\nCBE: The possibility of a double bind seems totally absurd in this case. What\u2019s the possibility that this fear of hubris could hold back major biological and technological advancements? I find it interesting that there is a heavy transhumanist strain of thinking not only in your department but throughout existential risk management. If we acknowledge that there were Neanderthals, and the Neanderthals died off because they were unable to cope in the same way as we Homo sapiens were, then at what point do post-humans become \u201cus\u201d and we become the Neanderthals? And where does that put you, as someone who is defending humanity? Do you continue to save \u201chumanity,\u201d or do you accept that it has transformed into something else?\nASB: I think that if humanity transformed into something else, that\u2019s not necessarily something I would object to, depending on what that transformation is. When one says to \u201cdefend humanity,\u201d it is important to understand what are the fundamental values that we ascribe to life. What makes life worth living? We think that humanity has value, and we think that human lives have value. We also think that animals have value, right? We think it would be morally reprehensible to torture animals. So \u201cvalue\u201d isn\u2019t just limited to Homo sapiens. It extends to less advanced life forms, and presumably more advanced life forms as well.\nCBE: You\u2019re suggesting cohabitation?\nASB: Yes, that\u2019s right.\nCBE: I would argue that animals\u2019 quality of life and their happiness has decreased globally. In your personal line of thinking, how much room is there for things like happiness or sorrow in terms of the survival of humanity?\nASB: Ideally, that\u2019s what it should all be about. The caveat is obviously that I would like humanity to survive in a happy state. I think that cohabitation is certainly physically possible. Animals are not necessarily suffering because we exist. It just so happens that we have economic and political structures that allow for factory farming, all sorts of environmental degradation, and other things that are really bad for animal welfare. I don\u2019t think these things are a necessity of human life. I think there could be alternate arrangements in which animals benefit from the existence of humanity. One of the more controversial debates at the moment is the question whether humans should intervene in the suffering of wild animals.\nASB: The idea that we should genetically engineer wild animals, so they don\u2019t prey on one another is obviously very theoretical and could be really bad for the ecosystem, so no one is seriously proposing this. But as a thought experiment, it\u2019s good in terms of separating out our intuitions about what\u2019s valuable about nature and what\u2019s valuable about the components within an ecosystem.\nCBE: This question was being asked around six or seven years ago: Should we let pandas die out? When pandas are depressed, they eat more, and both of these things contribute to a decrease in libido, and then they don\u2019t want to procreate. I just think it\u2019s fucked up for us to make that decision for the pandas: to what extent are they depressed because they live on a planet where we are at the top of that decision-making hierarchy? How much do you factor in something like power imbalance?\nASB: As far as our relationship to artificial intelligence is concerned, presumably we\u2019re going to be the ones deciding and creating this intelligence. We humans would have some agency over our successors, hopefully. It is a different situation from the pandas\u2014where they experience us as an external force coming in\u2014that would be more similar to aliens invading and deciding what to do with us.\nCBE: Yeah. Who gets to decide?\nASB: Some people have this view that human life is actually not worth living and that to exist is to be in a state of suffering. But philosopher Derek Parfit points out is that even in a world where we think that human existence is \u201cnet bad,\u201d we should still try to prevent existential risks\u2014simply because there is a possibility of life having positive value in the future. So there\u2019s this option that we could create something that experiences really amazing well-being in the future. Maintaining that is actually worth quite a bit. That\u2019s another reason to prevent human extinction. I agree with this. I imagine that in the future there could be beings experiencing radically more well-being than we do in our current state. And this might be something to work for.\nCBE: I would agree with you\u2014but from the standpoint that I want to be one of those advanced beings. You\u2019ve said that humans are bad at accounting for the welfare of future generations. But you seem to have this perspective of trying to account not just for yourself but whatever is to come. Within the Institute you aim to think about humanity 20,000 years from now, instead of twenty or fifty or one hundred years in the future. I\u2019m still thinking from a really selfish perspective! There\u2019s a Google superintelligence that was trotted out recently, and it was asked \u201cWhat is the meaning of life?\u201d And it answered: \u201cTo live forever.\u201d This is an answer that I can get down with\u2014live to keep living.\nASB: Nick wrote an article called \u201cAstronomical Waste: The Opportunity Cost of Delayed Technological Development.\u201d I really love this paper, because at first he\u2019s arguing that the faster technology progresses, the bigger the benefits, much bigger than the typical person realizes. If you have this view that adding more lives that have high levels of well-being is good, then each second of delay in space colonization means a huge potential loss. But then Nick argues that slowing technological progress down by ten million years, if it increases the chance of eventual space colonization by 1 percent, is probably worth it from this perspective. We think technology is really, really good for humanity, but it has all these potential pitfalls that could be existential risks. This means that there\u2019s a tension between people that want to have the benefits of those technologies as soon as possible and those that think that future generations ought to take priority.\nCBE: That goes against accelerationist theories that encourage expansion and Moore\u2019s law (a computing theory that the number of transistors able to fit on a microchip would double every two years). Well, it acknowledges Moore\u2019s law but says that there are benefits to slowing it down.\nASB: Maybe. Things get complicated. Things seem to be getting better over time. Violence is declining. There are more human rights around the world, feminism, literacy\u2014we\u2019ve made a lot of progress. It could be that some of this progress is tied to technological advances. The claim is that if slowing down technology makes things safer, then maybe it\u2019s good to do that. It\u2019s unclear whether or not that\u2019s true. It could be that slowing down technology, in terms of what its real world implications would be, would be bad, especially when you consider how technologies interact. Certain technologies you want to accelerate, because they actually mitigate the risks of other technologies. Getting an asteroid deflection program is just good, We want that as fast as possible. Getting space colonization is something we want as fast as possible. Getting vaccines is something we want as fast as possible. So there are certainly technologies that would be good not only for us but for the benefit of future generations as well. So accelerating those technologies certainly seems worthwhile. From a moral perspective, there is this tension between being selfish and wanting all these amazing medical technologies now, and the kind of risks that really radical future technologies might hold if we go too fast without thinking about it.\nCBE: Earlier we were talking about the 2015 movie The Martian, and you proposed an idea which is very much at the center of the video that I\u2019m working on: The utilitarian as protagonist. We first talked about this in reference to the character of Romilly in the 2014 movie Interstellar and you said \u201cI don\u2019t know why the utilitarian always gets a bad rap.\u201d He gets killed off. But you like The Martian, because it goes the opposite route. They risk the lives of four people to save one. Because of the advances that he made whilst on Mars, if saving him then helps us to save all of humanity when we have to colonize Mars, then we benefit from his information. So maybe inventor and futurist Raymond Kurzweil\u2019s, or my, or whomever\u2019s hubris or trying to fly too close to the sun actually provides a level of information. So if a bystander is paying attention, they might see, \u201cOh god, Icarus\u2019 wings started melting when he was at XYZ proximity to the sun. But until that point he was actually doing alright, so maybe we can try that for a little bit.\u201d Matt Damon did tape everything . . .\nASB: I really like that. I guess the thing about utilitarianism is that it\u2019s difficult to work out in practice. Acting in a way that is traditionally thought of as being \u201cethical\u201d is usually the right call. There are all these examples within the \u201ctrolley problem\u201d thought experiment, in which there\u2019s a runaway train, and if you push a fat person under the tracks to stop it, five lives will be saved. Do you push the fat person under the track? In this thought experiment, there are no consequences. It\u2019s an isolated box. But in the real world, living in a society where it\u2019s OK to push a person under the tracks is not going to lead to a good outcome.\nCBE: It alters the value system and punctuates the equation of who should be valued and who shouldn\u2019t. I was so happy that you turned me on to the trolley problem. I went down a little bit of a hole and also discovered \u201cthe fat villain.\u201d The idea that the big person is also the person who tied the five people to the tracks. Is it ethically OK to then to push that person onto the track to save them?\nASB: Right. Most people think that it is OK.\nCBE: What do you think?\nASB: I think it\u2019s OK in both scenarios.\nCBE: Really??? To push the person onto the tracks???\nASB: In the super isolated, super sterile environment of the thought experiment, yes, I think that would be the right thing to do. That being said, I wouldn\u2019t actually do that in real life.\nCBE: What you\u2019re coming up against is that in the sterile environment of an imagined scenario, the right answer is to do that. But with all the messiness of reality . . . it\u2019s a setup for failure. It\u2019s a conclusion I\u2019m applying to large corporations or hyper systems like government or whatever might emerge out of the combination of these two. They would consistently be acting under this umbrella, the auspice of a greater good, an imagined, perfect bubble scenario. The reality of such decision-making would cause an avalanche of problems and scenarios impossible to overcome on a human level.\nASB: Did we talk about scope insensitivity the last time we talked?\nCBE: No.\nASB: OK. So one argument is that we should do the utilitarian thing, because utilitarianism is correct. There is another argument that says even if utilitarianism is correct, acting in a utilitarian way does not really get you there, so the best thing to do in practice is still just be a good person\u2014do not push people onto the train tracks and do the thing that is obviously good. However, an argument that cuts back against this is that doing what\u2019s obviously good is not something that humans have evolved to do. This becomes most clear when we talk about scope insensitivity. A number of psychologists did interviews with people and asked, \u201cHow much would you be willing to pay to save 2,000 birds from an oil spill?\u201d The average answer was something like roughly $80. They asked another big group of people \u201cHow much would you pay to save 200,000 birds from an oil spill?\u201d The average answer was about $80.\nHumans have not evolved to think about big numbers. When we were hunter-gatherers, no one had the ability to influence large numbers of people. That\u2019s starting to change, as far as the large numbers of people that could be living in the future, but also in terms of the large numbers of people living in the present. So when we are making policies that affect thousand or millions of people\u2019s lives, I think there might potentially be more room for the sort of utilitarian calculus that might help us figure out how we make the world a better place.\nCBE: You had described the idea of intergenerational problems vs. personal problems. How much of a threat is individualism to humanity?\nASB: Yeah, pretty big maybe. Especially as technology is getting more and more powerful. I guess it depends what you mean by, when you say individualism . . .\nCBE: In the populous, media sense, that each individual is unique and special. In the sense that every generation since the 1980s has been called the \u201cme generation,\u201d and also individualism as a concept, like humanism.\nASB: I think it doesn\u2019t call for much charity, and that\u2019s too bad. I don\u2019t know, maybe it encourages people to be more creative and take bigger risks as far as pursuing what they think is a meaningful life.\nCBE: Taking your birds/oil spill analogy, I\u2019ll go ahead and make an easy link between individualism and capitalism here. What is the probability that capitalism could at some point eclipse other major existential risks, like climate change or artificial intelligence? How much of an existential risk is capitalism?\nASB: It certainly doesn\u2019t seem to be an ideal system, that\u2019s for sure. Capitalism is an existential risk in so far as it leads to something that would be permanently bad. It could be directly leading to an AI catastrophe or Climate Change, something that actually leads to human extinction\u2014if it were to somehow become a permanent system on earth. I guess I\u2019m more concerned about the former rather than the latter. It\u2019s much better to tackle the individual issues rather than try and change the global world order. It would be great if we could come up with a replacement for capitalism, but it has its costs and its benefits. It\u2019s unclear what would happen after that.\nCBE: There\u2019s also the question of whether whatever system replaces capitalism\u2014one that we\u2019ll transition to because of capitalism\u2019s failure\u2014will have a better outcome, be any more or less successful?\nASB: It seems very unlikely that any global system is permanent. Capitalism has honestly only been around for a few hundred years. We have experimented with lots of different things. We have lived in hunter-gatherer bands. We have lived in empires. We have lived in all sorts of systems. If we really zoom out, it seems very unlikely what we have stumbled upon in the past century or so is going to somehow be the permanent state of affairs for the next 20 to 30,000 years. Right? Capitalism is one of these things that is a problem, but a problem I want future generations to worry about. I want to deal with the problems which determine whether or not future generations will be there in the first place.\nCBE: Do you think the time we are living in is unique?\nASB: I think it\u2019s incredibly unique.\nCBE: Why?\nASB: We discovered the atomic bomb seventy years ago. That marks a unique time in history. We are one of the first generations living in a world in which we can wipe ourselves out. Within the next few hundred years I imagine there\u2019s going to be another technology that could radically change the human condition: technologies that could potentially change the human body, that could change what society looks like. We have the potential for other technologies which could be extremely dangerous and could also lead to these sorts of existential risks. If we survive this transition period\u2014of getting these technologies and learning how to handle them\u2014then there\u2019s potential for a really bright and long lasting future. I\u2019m not the only one who thinks that this is potentially the make-or-break century, and that we are living in a very special time. This increases the urgency for us to work on this. This isn\u2019t going to be an opportunity that future generations get, whether or not the problems are resolved or existing.\nC\u00c9CILE B. EVANS is a Belgian American artist based in London.

Hunt (859)291-9664 Daniel Hunt, Principal\nThis letter of recommendation for Bro. Chuck Pietrowski to the Gospel ministry of Jesus Christ as a missionary is sent with the joyful trust that God has prepared a laborer in the Gospel to plant a Sovereign Grace Baptist Church in England. Bro. Pietrowski served eleven years as a member of First Baptist Church of Independence where he was actively involved in the ministry of the Word. He taught Sunday School, filled in for his pastor when called upon, and preached at a once-a-month ministry to the homeless. God\u2019s providence has brought Bro. Chuck into the membership of Pleasant View Baptist Church while maintaining a loving and proper relationship with his former church and pastor.\nBro. Pietrowski, while serving under my pastoral leadership at Pleasant View Baptist Church, has expressed a sincere desire and call to the ministry of the Gospel in the work of a missionary. On November 25, 2012, our church voted to ordain him to the Gospel ministry on January 5, 2013, with the intention of sending him and his godly wife Jennifer, along with their three young boys, to Harrogate, England, to preach the Gospel and establish a Baptist Church as God blesses.\nBro. Chuck has encouraged me as his pastor by assisting me in preaching, teaching as a substitute Sunday School teacher, and maintaining a nursing home ministry. He is faithful and demonstrates the character of Jesus Christ with a mature and wise manner in ordering his life under Christ. He diligently seeks to accomplish what he is persuaded are the goals and purposes of his Lord. The investment of your time, prayers, and interest in examining him and having him present his work to your church will, we trust and pray, be rewarded. He is worthy of your consideration of support both prayerfully and financially.\nPastor Charles Hunt\npleasanntviewbaptist(at)gmail(dot)com",

In overall global ranking in the YDE report, Pakistan is also below the two countries.\nPakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNA Murad Saeed had inquired from the planning and development ministry that whether it was a fact that Pakistan\u2019s rank was lower than Syria and Iraq under the YDE report to which a written reply was submitted and Pakistan\u2019s position was described in the five domains in comparison with the position of Syria and Iraq.\nThe YDE report, developed by the Commonwealth Secretariat, measures the status of young people in 183 countries around the world.\nThe index is a comprehensive measure across five domains that are critical to youth development \u2013 education, health, employment, and civic and political participation.\nIt informs policymakers about young people\u2019s needs and opportunities, indicating areas of success and where both attention and investment is needed. It also acts as a data advocacy tool, highlighting the importance of gathering statistics on key youth indicators in order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.\nAccording to the submitted data, Pakistan is at 156th place in the domain of \u2018education\u2019 while Iraq stands at 152nd position and Syria stands at 126th in this domain.\nIn the domain of \u2018civic participation rank\u2019 Pakistan stands at 154th position while Iraq stands at 37th position and Syria stands at 97th position, the data submitted by the ministry about the index states.\nIn the field of \u2018health and well-being\u2019 Pakistan fares better than Iraq as Pakistan stands at 77th position while Iraq is ranked at 103. However, Syria superseded Pakistan in this area as it ranks at 41st in the same domain.\nThe only area in which Pakistan stands at a better position in the index is the \u2018employment and opportunity\u2019 as Pakistan stands at 154th position while Iraq at 183 and Syria 164 in the same domain.\nIn the field of \u2018political participation\u2019, Pakistan holds the 165th rank which is better than Syria standing at 172nd, but not better than Iraq which holds the 84th position.\nAccording the federal government, after the 18th Constitutional Amendment the subjects of \u2018youth development\u2019 under which sectors like health, education, employment, civic and political participation fall, have been devolved to the provinces which are primarily responsible for development in these areas\nThe government is of the view that all provincial governments have prepared their own youth policies but this factor was not into consideration in the YDI.\nResponding to the question of the legislator, the government mentioned a few projects of its own which contribute to youth development in the country.\nAccording to the government, the Prime Minister\u2019s Youth Business Loan Scheme, employment generation in CPEC projects, Prime Minister\u2019s Youth Training Scheme, Fanni Maharat Programme, skill development through National Training Bureau and some other projects were contributing to the development of youths in the country.\nPrevious articleOverseas Pakistanis \u2013 Voting Right\nNext articleAli Baba, Chalis Chor and dead nation.",

        "raw_content": "Naturalist and wildlife photographer par excellence, Stan Tekiela, talks about his latest trip to Alaska and his encounters with grizzly bears.\nEvery trip I take to Alaska is special. When it comes to wilderness and wildlife, Alaska is the real deal. This year\u2019s trip was no exception. Moose are often what I spend my time searching for, but this year I concentrated on grizzly bears.\nHow the Grizzly Bear Got Its Name\nWe have three types of bears in North America: the black bear, brown bear, and polar bear. The grizzly bear is a subspecies of brown bear. They tend to be the smallest of the brown bears. The name \u201cgrizzly\u201d doesn\u2019t have a clear origin. It seems that originally it was spelled \u201cgrisley\u201d and referred to the grey or silver tips of the hair. The more modern spelling \u201cgrisly\u201d refers to it being \u201cfear-inspiring\u201d or \u201cfearsome.\u201d Of course, I think either interpretation equally describes this amazing bear.\nGrizzly bear cub; photo taken in northern Alaska, Denali National Park\nOver my 30-plus-year career studying wildlife, I have had many encounters with black, brown, and polar bears. I still find them endlessly fascinating and beautiful. They are one of my most favorite subjects to study and film.\nThis year, I had many wonderful opportunities to photograph grizzly bears in Alaska, mostly in and around Denali National Park. Most of the bears I encountered were females, which are called sows. All of them had at least one cub. Several had two cubs. Best of all, the cubs were \u201cspring cubs\u201d (born this past spring), so they were still very small and super cute.\nCubs of grizzly bears are born while the mother is still in the den during late winter, usually in February. So these cubs were just 6 months old. As a result, they were super curious and playful. They would follow their mothers anywhere and stick closely by their sides.\nOne day, while I was filming a mother and her single spring cub, the mother found a root of a tree sticking out of a dry riverbank. She started chewing and scraping at the gnarled root. For some reason, this activity scared the cub and sent it running away from its mother.\nThe cub wasn\u2019t more than 30 yards away from its mother but couldn\u2019t clearly see what she was doing. The mother continued to bite and then roll around on top of the root, depositing her scent and fur. The cub looked and acted confused, often running back a few yards and than standing up and trying to see what was going on.\nI was able to capture some images before the mother walked up the dry riverbank and into the cub\u2019s view. As soon as the cub saw its mother, it started running to catch up to her but suddenly caught a whiff of the scent post the mother had just laid down.\nThe cub approached the exposed and now torn-up root and suddenly starting doing exactly what the mother had been doing. The cub was now biting and rolling around on the root (which now was rather beaten up). As soon as the cub noticed the mother was still walking away, it quickly got up and ran after her.\nThe sow and cub started walking across the tundra straight towards me. Usually the bears will stop and feed for a while before moving on, but this mother clearly had some place to go. I was able to capture a number of images as the bears approached, but I needed to retreat before they came dangerously close.\nI must tell you that when you are all by yourself in the wilderness and you are looking through the long lens of a camera, it makes the bears look much closer than they actually are. It\u2019s a bit unnerving!\nEach and every time I have an encounter with a bear, I feel such respect towards these amazing animals. I can\u2019t wait to return to Alaska.\nAlaskaBearsgrizzly bearsStan TekielaWIldlife",

Motion is the sign of life. America is a grand country. It is a paradise of the poor and women. There is almost no poor in the country, and nowhere else in the world women are so free, so educated, so cultured. They are everything in society.\nThis is a great lesson. The Sannyasin has not lost a bit of his Sannyasinship, even his mode of living. And in this most hospitable country, every home is open to me. The Lord who guides me in India, would He not guide me here? And He has.\nYou may not understand why a Sannyasin should be in America, but it was necessary. Because the only claim you have to be recognised by the world is your religion, and good specimens of our religious men are required to be sent abroad to give other nations an idea that India is not dead.\nSome representative men must come out of India and go to all the nations of the earth to show at least that you are not savages. You may not feel the necessity of it from your Indian home, but, believe me, much depends upon that for your nation. And a Sannyasin who has no idea of doing good to his fellows is a brute, not a Sannyasin.\nI am neither a sightseer nor an idle traveller; but you will see, if you live to see, and bless me all your life.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cIf you live an ordinary life, you have ordinary stories. Live a life of adventure and you will have the most exciting stories.\u201d\nExotic places, journeys of discovery! These were just stories to a young boy growing up in a Montreal suburb, but they stayed buried in my brain, waiting for the key that could release them.\nI moved to the Toronto area, graduated high school and went off to university, majoring in the sciences. I wasn\u2019t sure what I wanted to do as a career, but the travel bug still tickled my imagination.\nOver the next few years, as I slogged away in a food laboratory, I discovered a new need in the industry. Food manufacturers were starting to adopt a proactive approach to food safety \u2013 the hazard analysis, critical control point, (HACCP), system of food safety management.\nAlong with this system came the need for trainers and auditors to drive the new system. I started to wonder, what if I were to learn how to train companies in how to implement effective HACCP system and conduct audits of these systems. I started working within my own food manufacturing company to start to try out the new HACCP system \u2013 it worked wonderfully, improving both food safety consciousness as well as reducing wasted time and resources.\nImmediately after being qualified as a HACCP trainer and auditor, I was hired to manage a food laboratory within a global inspection, certification and testing organization.\nI saw a chance to finally release the hidden travel bug and combine it with a service that provided real value to the global food industry.\nI had to work at it, but I convinced Canadian management\u2013almost as soon as I was hired\u2013to let me join the new global HACCP team. Immediately, I travelled to the USA to begin work with this global team to adopt the new US FDA Seafood HACCP Rule to global exporters.\nI was then invited to Geneva, Switzerland for several weeks to write a new training and audit program around this new regulation.\nSomeone Punched My Ticket to Explore the World\nIt was as if someone punched my ticket to explore the world and my hidden travel bug exploded into being. Over the next few years, I travelled to more exotic destinations than I could have ever imagined I would. I worked with a partner to deliver HACCP training and perform auditing around the world.\nSome of the places I\u2019ve visited include the UK, Colombia, the Philippines, Per\u00fa, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, France, Guatemala, throughout the Bahamas, Cuba and the Caribbean, across Canada and the USA.\nIn all my travels, I had the rare chance to work with different food manufacturers, farms, retailers, restaurant chains, hotel chains, cruise lines, airlines, trucking/shipping companies, government and trade associations. I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge and, more importantly, met some wonderful people, learned from their experience and used it to improve my training and audit skills.\nHACCP morphed into ISO 22000, then into the Global Food Safety Initiative schemes. I qualified for several of these schemes, training and auditing them for several years.\nFinally, in the past 3 years, I used my global experience to create a new method of training and implementing food safety management to increase effectiveness and optimize resources. This new method, called Food Safety Program Optimization, has created a new global market, this time targeted to making food safety more user friendly and efficient.\nI am also committed to training new graduates and career changers looking to enter the exciting world of food safety training and auditing.\nOnce again, a doorway to the world has opened for me. As I did before, I will use it to try and do my part to improve food safety where I can and train a new wave of people in effective ways of training, implementing and auditing this most important aspect of the food industry. I want this to be my personal legacy. I\u2019m also being a bit selfish, because I love what I do and I love the travel.\nI hope to continue following my dream as long as I can, because, as I\u2019ve discovered through my travels, when you understand the world better, you also understand yourself and your self worth. To paraphrase a recent movie quote:\n\u201cIf you live an ordinary life, you have ordinary stories. Live a life of adventure and you will have the most exciting stories.\u201d The world of food safety has given me that life of adventure, I hope it does the same for you as you begin your journey.

A tiny fraction of the documents had been digitized by the Tombouctou Manuscripts Project, and there are other, smaller libraries which may have been spared, but it\u2019s still an appalling waste.\nIf you\u2019d like to learn more about Timbuktu, be sure to check out the PBS series Wonders of the African World, by Henry Louis Gates.\nIf you\u2019d like to know more about what\u2019s going on in Mali, I recommend one of the blogs I follow: Bridges from Bamako.\nWhen we went to see Habib Koit\u00e9 a couple of years ago, we talked to a number of people who had been to the music festival in Timbuktu. It sounded like an amazing experience. Hopefully the mess in Mali will settle down enough that it can once again be known for its music rather than for war and terror.\nNext story The View From Your Window\nPrevious story The Indian Queen",

The Full Frame Documentary Film Festival reports another year of astounding growth, drawing record attendance and yielding 2.1 million dollars for the local economy, an increase of $320,000 over 2011. The event generated close to $73,000 in tax revenue for the city of Durham according to the Durham Convention and Visitors Bureau, an increase of $20,000 over 2011.\nFestival organizers report an overall increase in attendees, hosting over 32,000 patrons and selling out a record 38 events. Many locally owned businesses also saw increased revenue during the 4-day festival with some local restaurateurs reporting the busiest weekends in the history of their establishments. Full Frame Executive Director, Deirdre Haj elaborates, \u201cAs the festival continues to grow in ticket and pass sales, we are even more excited to share this growth with our sponsors and the local businesses of Durham. And with our year-round programming and youth programs, we know these numbers are only the tip of the iceberg in both local sales and tax revenue for our city.\u201d\nDurham Convention and Visitors Bureau CEO, Shelly Green adds, \u201cSpending by visitors to the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival is substantial, but there is more than just the impact of the dollars spent. Full Frame receives great national exposure which garners a type of billboard effect within the documentary world. That leads to future visitation and even the relocation of some independent film companies to the area.\u201d\nThis year\u2019s Full Frame Documentary Film Festival presented 101 total films, including four Full Frame Tribute titles, ten Thematic Program titles, 57 titles in the NEW DOCS competitive program, as well as 30 films as part of the Invited Program. Of the 101 documentaries screened, 27 were premieres, including nine World Premieres, 13 North American and five US Premieres. There were 50 foreign titles from 27 different countries and 67 of the 101 films had filmmakers, subjects or a representative in attendance.\nThis entry was posted on Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012 at 9:18 pm\tand is filed under Featured, Film Business.

        "title": "Just Policy Blog: This Father\u2019s Day, Think About the Empty Seats",
        "raw_content": "This Father\u2019s Day, Think About the Empty Seats\nBy Keith Wallington\nJPI State Based Strategist\nRemember your first great achievement as a child? Was it your first talent show or dance recital? First little league hit, basket made, or goal scored? Think back to that moment. What made it so special? Who was there? There\u2019s no better affirmation of a child\u2019s achievement than a parent\u2019s approval.\nRemember the excitement? Now imagine that seat in the audience being empty, and the hurt and disappointment that follows. That empty seat is a reality for too many kids across the country due to the justice system\u2019s devastating impact on families and communities. The residual effect of the justice system\u2019s disproportionate impacts on people and communities of color are reflected in those empty seats. One in four black children is at risk of having an incarcerated parent compared to one in thirty white children.\nThis Father\u2019s Day, remember all the fathers who have been separated from their children as a result of the justice system. Many acknowledge that the United States\u2019 system of slavery was so terrible because of the beatings, mutilations and overall inhumane physical treatment of slaves. However, the cruelest part of slavery for many slaves in the U.S. didn\u2019t lie in the inhumane physical treatment, but rather, the separation of families. There is no greater pain or loss than a parent being separated from their child, and the separation of families now routinely happens under the cover of the justice system. The impact cannot be overstated. As a coach for my son\u2019s basketball and baseball teams I see and feel the reality of those empty seats. I can tell within the first practice which of my players does not have a father figure in their lives. There is a difference. You can see it. You can feel it. And the kids certainly can, too.\nThe void the justice system creates by removing so many fathers in poor communities of color creates a ripple effect that is felt throughout the entire community. While at the Justice Policy Institute over the past seven years, I\u2019ve worked on these important issues in communities around DC, Maryland and Virginia. I also live in Maryland, where blacks make up 29% of the overall population but about 72% of the prison population. This disproportionate impact of the justice system on black males has devastated entire communities and left voids that are filled by gangs and others who try to take advantage of the absence of strong parental figures. If we want to create a better future for our kids, we must begin by altering the trajectory of many fatherless kids by investing in them, and healing their communities.\nAccording to The Right Investment, a report by the Justice Policy Institute, the Maryland community where the justice system spends the most money incarcerating residents is Sandtown-Winchester in Baltimore, where Freddie Gray was from. Taxpayers spend $17 million a year incarcerating residents from this one community alone. But when you look at the indicators of a healthy neighborhood, such as employment, education, housing, and treatment services, you then see that Sandtown has the highest unemployment rate, highest percentage of people without a high school diploma, the highest number of abandoned houses, and highest rate of emergency narcotic calls to 911. Sandtown also has one of the highest percentages in Baltimore of female-headed households with children under 18 (at 79.2%), compared to the city average of 54.4%. So, while it cost $37k a year to incarcerate someone in Maryland, that same $37k could provide drug treatment for 8 people, employment training for 7 people, and a GED course for 37 people in impacted communities. In communities deeply impacted by the justice system, it becomes clear where investments are needed and why so many children are without fathers due to incarceration, instead of receiving the support they need.\nAs JPI celebrates its 20th anniversary year, I reflect on the work we\u2019ve done towards reducing the impact of the justice system, with most of my focus on communities around the DMV. We know that there is a whole generation of missing fathers, an Incarceration Generation, and much more reform that needs to be done towards creating safer, stronger communities.\nRather than targeting resources towards locking up so many black men, states and the federal government could invest more wisely and preserve the family structure, rather than continue to spend enormous amounts of money in the justice system that results in the mass separation of family. We can and must do better! Instead of rendering so many black children fatherless, it\u2019s time to work on healing and strengthening communities through smart, targeted investments that result in diplomas, not criminal records.\nRethinking the School to Prison Pipeline",

        "raw_content": "With this ring Goethe tried to capture the heart of young Wilhelmine Herzlieb. Alas, to no avail.\nGoethe\u2019s Heart Throb for Young Miss Herzlieb\nWhat does a poet do when his lyrical wooing falls on deaf ears? He presents his queen of hearts with a ring. Alas, this too did not change Wilhelmine Herzlieb\u2019s mind. The rare jewel, however, survived and will shortly be on show at the National Museum Zurich.\nGoethe not only enchanted the lovers of literature but also many women of his time. His numerous liaisons not only contributed to his personal enjoyment, they also had a profound impact on his literary oeuvre. The Sorrows of Young Werther, for example, helped him to get over his rejected love for Charlotte Buff, while his liaison with Friederike Brion resulted in the Sesenheimer Lieder.\nIn his younger years, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a passionate and impetuous lover, but this changed in the course of his Italian Journey (1786 to 1788). He became quieter and more focussed on stability. However, in the autumn years of his life, his Sturm und Drang side resurged. Well over fifty, Goethe fell in love with Wilhelmine \u201cMinna\u201d Herzlieb and attempted to sweet-talk her with the aid of one or two sonnets. However, the young woman ignored his reveries in ink. Did this prompt the ageing poet to declare his love in a more tangible form?\nIn 1820, Goethe gave Wilhelmine, then eighteen, a ring made of red gold, adorned with three stones of different colours, incised with the symbols of Faith, Love and Hope. Unfortunately, the latter remained unfulfilled since Minna Herzlieb failed to raise any enthusiasm for Johann Wolfgang. Later she gave the ring as a present to her best friend, Auguste Wittig, and went on to marry the German professor of law, Friedrich Walch. It was a marriage of convenience and ended tragically for Wilhelmine Herzlieb. She fell into a deep depression and died many years later in a mental hospital.\nGoethe dedicated a few sonnets to the young woman.\nMinna Herzlieb married another man.\nMinna\u2019s ring remained in possession of Auguste Wittig\u2019s family and was finally auctioned off to the collectors Alice and Louis Koch in London in 1981. Their collection, which comprises over 2,500 rings, has been held by the Swiss National Museum since 2015. Around 300 pieces are on permanent display at the National Museum Zurich. Under normal circumstances Goethe\u2019s ring is not exhibited. But unlike the love-stricken poet, visitors are now about to strike gold: the famous piece of jewellery is on display in a special exhibition from 19 May through 22 October 2017.\nJewellery. Material Craft Art\nIn a special exhibition the Swiss National Museum is putting on display a selection of its best pieces from its extensive jewellery collection. The spectrum ranges from archaeological objects to sacred, bourgeois as well as peasant creations through to contemporary pieces. Of course, Goethe\u2019s ring also features in the \u201chit parade\u201d line-up.\nHistorian and communications chief of the Swiss National Museum.",

Jeff Smith is a part-time professor of African-American studies. [ed. note: at this point, I had yet to clue in as to whether this was pro- or anti-Jeff Smith]. Jeff Smith is the only candidate on Tuesdays who has no legislative experience. Jeff Smith is a carpetbagger who admitted to the media that he moved here from New Hampshire. The only reason he left New Hampshire was because the college where he was teaching didn't want to renew his contract. We need someone in Congress with legislative experience...NOT Jeff Smith.\"\nThis message brought to me by...? An admitted relocator? That's second only to \"known Caucasian\" in terms of things that just don't sound that scary to me.\nPosted under by Amanda Doyle on Fri., Aug 4, 2006 at 6:42 PM\nHmmm. I had one from 866-849-3243 and google yielded the same results. Doubt I would have been scared, either, had they left a message.\n[Posted by Julia on Fri., Aug 4, 2006 at 7:21 PM]\nIt was my impression that the Smith's from Olivette, STL County, taught at Wash U. for awhile, and only lived in New Hampshire for a bit after his run for the House to teach a semester or two at Dartmouth. What gives?\n[Posted by Eric on Fri., Aug 4, 2006 at 11:48 PM]\nIf Jeff Smith is a carpetbagger, we need more of them. He worked on Havey Gantt's campaign against Jessie Helms and has actually worked (not just talked) against racial bias. We have a legislature in this state that slashes Medicaid to the bone and balances the state budget on the backs of people who are struggling to make ends meet.\nWe need him in Jeff City!\n[Posted by Charles on Sat., Aug 5, 2006 at 4:44 AM]\nJohn Carey and Lisa Baldez changed jobs to Dartmouth a couple years ago. Jeff is close with them and when the 2004 campaigns were over (he did field work for Claire), Jeff had an offer to teach at Dartmouth as a visiting professor--they thought he'd be a good addition since he has worked in Iowa for Bradley and the 2004 campaign itself. He didn't apply for the tenure track job becaus* he wanted to return to St. Louis. It was a 3 quarter job so he taught from January to August of 2005.\nHe's originally from Olivette and went to Wash U for grad school in PoliSci--we went to grad school together so I'm pretty familiar with the whole story.\nHe is not an instructor at Wash U and sometimes at UMSL. The call is, ummm...made up.\n[Posted by ArchPundit on Sat., Aug 5, 2006 at 10:53 AM]\n==That's second only to \"known Caucasian\" in terms of things that just don't sound that scary to me.\nIt's certainly better than being the Decider.",

Currently, it\u2019s the only new construction on the Intracoastal point lot in Boca Raton, but what makes it undeniably one of Boca\u2019s prime properties is exceptional forward-looking design that is perfectly executed by luxury developer Mary Widmer.

        "raw_content": "The Museum Vaults: Excerpts from the Journal of an Expert by Marc-Antoine Mathieu\nNantier Beall Minoustchine, 2008 (2008)\nReviewed by Lance Victor Eaton\nThis second volume in NBM's Louvre series meets the standards set by its predecessor, The Glacial Period. The idea with this series has been to give artists access to the Louvre in order to create stories centered on the famous museum and thus far, they have been come up with interesting premises. In The Museum Vaults: Excerpts from the Journal of an Expert, Paris and its splendor have long fallen out of favor to the point that no one even remembers the original name of the museum, resorting to calling it the Musee Du Revolu.\nWhile the museum still carries its majestic structure, people have lost track of its possessions and thus Eudeus Volumer is hired to take part in the extensive cataloguing process of all the museum's innards. This will require Volumer and his assistant to go far and deep into the museum's vaults to get a full record. As days pass into weeks and into years, it becomes evident that the vaults may be bottomless; especially when Volumer encounters a dying man who was the previous cataloguer. Despite this, Volumer is determined to continue with his work.\nNow, that simple plot can sound anything but compelling, and yet, Mathieu brings his characters (and thus the reader) through many interesting quadrants of the museum's collection. Indeed, in this neverending descent, Volumer and his assistant meet a variety of curators and caretakers who provide different commentary on art (and its numerous forms). Ideas about perspective, style, legitimacy, and preservation abound throughout these discussions in a manner which the lay reader can easily comprehend. At its core, the book discusses the question of art but does so like a magician, distracting the audience by adding flashy moves and gestures.\nLayered on the discussion, Mathieu also plays with his own artistic display using different methods within the graphic novel to break out of the proverbial box. Of course, Mathieu has a cunning sense of humor, injecting into his graphic novel discussions about the legitimacy of comic art that fit perfectly well with the ongoing storyline. Also, he includes discussions and depictions of both the famous and lesser-known works within the Louvre.\nBoth the first and second book in this series have set a high standard that NBM will have to meet in future editions. Mathieu proves amazingly capable of rendering complex ideas and visuals into a narrative that most people will enjoy.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Guinea Dog | | Why Boys Fail \u00bb\nSo far she'd come up with nothing but a name: The Save-Daddy Plan. She knew in her deepest heart that a more honest title would be the Save-Rosalind-and-Her-Sisters Plan, but she was not ready to admit that even to herself.\nAs soon as I finished reading the first Penderwicks book to Ridley, she insisted that we start on the second book right away. It's taken us a little while since we left it at home over spring break, but we just finished tonight. Ridley loved it so much that when I closed the book, she exclaimed: \"Now we can go read the first book again!\" (I'd told her that Birdsall was working on a third book, but according to her website it takes her about three years to write a book, and this one was published in 2008.)\nThe story in book two (with its not-very-creative-title) is that beloved Aunt Claire has shown up with a letter for her brother Mr. Penderwick from his wife, written before she passed away a few years before. In it, she encourages him to start dating, and Claire has some specific guidelines to make sure he actually gives it a fair shot.\nBut the girls\u2014Rosalind in particular\u2014have trouble with this idea, and come up with the Save-Daddy Plan. In the meantime, there are other adventures aplenty for each girl: Batty befriends the little boy next door and together they spy on the Bug Man; Jane and Skye trade homework assignments with some hilarious consequences; Rosalind discovers that her neighbor Tommy is really annoying and just doesn't understand why he acts the way he does.\nAgain, since most of the girls are older than Ridley, I wasn't entirely sure how much she understood everything, but I think the mix of humor and drama, not to mention the fact that it's about four sisters, drew her into the story. I really liked it too, and I'll be eagerly waiting for the next book in the series.",

In February, we opened our new state-of-the-art training facility. Here, newly hired staffers learn all about the patented BU style of review writing.\nIn April, our world-wide offices were able to keep in touch via teleconference, thanks to our multi-million dollar investment in satellite technology. Thus far, the system only receives the Ecuadoran Porn Channel, but our engineers are working to resolve the issue.\nIn May, we launched The Not So Snooty Film Festival at the Best Western in Kingman, AZ. Envisioned as an alternative to the Cannes Film Festival, the event drew a small but somewhat enthusiastic crowd. Next year will be even more exciting as Larry Storch has agreed to appear. Look out Cannes\u2026 we drink your milkshake!!\nBut all was not hard work and drudgery here at BU, Inc. In June, our annual employee picnic was a smash hit! Please be advised that next year the open bar policy will likely be revisited.\nDuring the summer, employees were allowed to bring their pets to work. The program was very popular, but liability issues eventually forced its abandonment.\nOur new Estonian theme park, UndieWorld, suffered a bit of a setback with the discovery that it was built in a flood plain. Thanks to the tireless efforts of our staff, the park was quickly reopened and most of the attractions are fully functional. Visitors traveling long distances are advised to check the local weather forecast prior to departure.\nWe have continued to diversify our holdings. Our luxury condominium project in Shanghai, China is nearing completion. In November, progress was slowed when \u201cBuilding E\u201d suddenly and inexplicably toppled. Fortunately no workers were trapped inside, where it would have been too expensive to rescue them.\nPending inspections on the remaining structures, this exciting new property should hit the street in early 2011.\nPerhaps that was a poor choice of words\u2026\nHilarious. The cat & dog photo is a gem. We hope you have better luck with your properties next year, and stay blogging in 2011.\nKarla Pierce said...\nAwesome! Very funny!\nDear Bunchie - Thanks to you I am replacing the second keyboard I've drowned in sputtered coffee...Housepets pic fantastic. Hope we'll both LOL our way through 11. x,#102\nHello #102!\nI trust the The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe has returned you safely to God's country...we want to hear all about it...\nThanks Bob and Karla...happy new year to you!!",

        "raw_content": "Guide to Car Detailing Process Car detailing for all you know is not only for cars but does include trucks, buses, SUV\u2019s, RVs, boats, motorcycles and even airplanes. Detailing is actually all about thoroughly and meticulously cleaning and reconditioning both the interior and the exterior of any vehicle. It is very much different from a car wash facility that uses a touchless trimming with chemicals used to loosen dirt and high water pressure to clean the exterior and sometimes even the interior of a vehicle. Detailing services however involves not only cleaning them but also reconditioning both the interior and exterior of your vehicle. In car detailing, you want the vehicle to be restored to its original looks or make it look better than when you first bought it. A lot of detailing service companies can also do the job to any type of vehicle. The primary aspect of detailing these vehicles is the idea of bringing every feature of the vehicle back to its original state so-as-to protect them this time around from the elements. The exterior parts of the car is the most abused and take the most brunt since it is the exposed part of the car. Some people think that the final clear coat of painting applied to a car\u2019s exterior is enough to protect the car so that there is no need for regular maintenance; this is wrong thinking. The truth is that the exterior of your vehicle needs wax to protect the finish from contamination and oxidation and so it is required that wax coat be applied to your vehicle exterior at least twice a year. Regular maintenance goes true also of the interior of your vehicle especially those areas where consistent rubbing takes place.\nWhen you bring your vehicle to a car detailing service company, they will ask you what you want them to work on, or they will offer your different detailing packages with varying costs. For every type of detailing service, there is a specialized technician trained to do the job. YOU can also ask the detailing company for quality service in terms of professionalism and the kind of products and equipment that you would want them to use.\nAnother variant factor that they would consider to determine the cost of detailing is the age or the condition of the vehicle. The older your vehicle is, it is understood that it has experienced more wear and tear through the years. This includes cracks that must be refurbished and refinished. Whether you have just purchased a used car, or simply because you want to have your vehicle look great again, car detailing is one of the most essential preventive maintenance measures that you can do to prolong ifs life of each component.",

        "raw_content": "RONALD JUNIOR HANEY,\nMIKE ADDISON,\n(D.C. No. CIV-97-1932-L)\nRonald Junior Haney, Pro Se.\nW.A. Drew Edmondson, Attorney General of Oklahoma and Alecia A. George, Assistant Attorney General of Oklahoma, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, for Respondent-Appellee.\nPetitioner-Appellant Ronald Haney appeals the district court's denial of his pro se \u00a7 2254 petition for habeas relief as time-barred under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (\"AEDPA\"), 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 2244(d). We exercise jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1291, grant a certificate of appealability, and affirm.\nIn 1993, Haney pled guilty to four counts of making lewd or indecent proposals to a minor under sixteen and one count of engaging in a lewd act with a minor under sixteen; he also pled nolo contendere to one count of kidnaping. On February 5, 1997, Haney filed this federal habeas action in the Western District of Oklahoma challenging his conviction. On May 15, 1998, a federal magistrate recommended granting the respondent's motion to dismiss the habeas petition as time-barred by the one-year limitations period imposed by AEDPA. The magistrate's recommendation concluded by stating:\nThe Petitioner is advised of his right to object to this Findings and Recommendation on or before the 29th of May, 1998. Petitioner is further advised that failure to file a timely objection to this Findings and Recommendation waives his right to district court or appellate review of both factual and legal issues.\nMagistrate's Recommendation at 6.\nOn June 1, 1998, instead of filing written objections to the magistrate's recommendation with the district court, Haney filed his objections in the form of a notice of appeal with this court. On June 9, 1998, the district court noted that Haney had not filed with it timely objections to the magistrate's report, and so it entered a final judgment adopting the magistrate's recommendation and dismissed Haney's \u00a7 2254 petition with prejudice. On June 22, 1998, instead of filing an amended notice of appeal, petitioner filed a pro se docketing statement with this court in connection with his earlier appeal. Respondent argues that this court lacks jurisdiction to entertain Haney's appeal, or in the alternative, that Haney waived his right to appellate review.\nAbsent both designation by the district court and consent of the parties, a magistrate's recommendation is not a final appealable decision under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1291. See 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 636(c); Colorado Bldg. & Constr. Trades Council v. Andersen Constr., 879 F.2d 809, 811 (10th Cir. 1989). Haney's June 1, 1998 Notice of Appeal to this court was therefore premature. Once the district court issued its final order on June 9, 1998, Haney did not file an amended notice of appeal; however, he did file a pro se docketing statement with our court within the 30-day period following the district court's final order as required by Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1). We have, in the past, permitted the filing of a pro se docketing statement to serve as the functional equivalent of a notice of appeal. See Mason v. Hutton, No. 97-1327, 1998 WL 161151, **1 & n.1 (10th Cir. Mar. 31, 1998) (unpublished decision) (citing Smith v. Barry, 502 U.S. 244, 248-49 (1992)). While we strongly discourage this practice, we conclude that Haney filed a timely notice of appeal of the district court's final order, and therefore that we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1291.\nRespondent contends that Haney waived his right to appellate review by failing to file objections to the magistrate's report with the district court. See Niehaus v. Kansas Bar Ass'n, 793 F.2d 1159, 1164-65 (10th Cir. 1986).\nIn Moore v. United States, 950 F.2d 656 (10th Cir. 1991), we declined to apply the waiver rule to a pro se litigant's failure to object when the magistrate's order did not apprise the pro se litigant of the consequences of a failure to object to the magistrate's findings and recommendations. See id. at 659. Here, the magistrate's recommendation advised Haney of the time limit for filing objections, and informed him of the consequences of failing to object. However, it failed to inform him of the proper place for filing his objections, and also failed to cite the applicable statute, see 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 636(b), or rule, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). The non-specific language of the magistrate's recommendation supports Haney's contention that he believed he was taking the appropriate action by filing his objections with the court of appeals in the nature of an appeal.(1) Given Haney's pro se prisoner status, we will not hold that he deliberately waived his right to object to the magistrate's recommendation where he was not advised where to file his objections, and where he filed timely objections with the court of appeals rather than the district court.\nWe note that, even had they been cited in the recommendation, 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 636(b) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a) do not clearly specify where one's objections to the magistrate's recommendation should be filed. Section 636(b) states merely that, \"[w]ithin ten days after being served with a copy, any party may serve and file written objections to such proposed findings and recommendations as provided by rules of court.\" 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 636(b).(2)\nSimilarly, Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) provides: \"Within 10 days after being served with a copy of the recommended disposition, a party may serve and file specific objections to the proposed findings and recommendations.\"\nThus, in neither the statute nor the federal rule is it explicitly stated that the filing should be with the clerk of the district court. Granted, the statute and rule make clear that a district judge \"may accept, reject, or modify\" the magistrate's decision, see 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 636(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), and thus, one might discern from this language that any objections to the recommendation should be filed with the district court. However, given that the recommendation here failed even to cite these provisions, and given that the statute and rule themselves require some interpretation, we are not inclined to conclude that Haney, a prisoner proceeding pro se, should have figured out on his own where to file his objections.(3)\nAEDPA Filing Deadlines\nNevertheless, we affirm the district court's dismissal of Haney's petition, as it is time-barred by the one-year limitations period imposed by AEDPA, 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 2244(d). In United States v. Simmonds, 111 F.3d 737 (10th Cir. 1997), we held that in cases such as this one, where a petitioner's conviction became final prior to the effective date of AEDPA, the petitioner is given a grace period of one year from the April 24, 1996 effective date of the Act -- or until April 23, 1997 -- to file a federal habeas petition. See id. at 745. Under \u00a7 2244(d)(2), the one-year limitations period under AEDPA is tolled during the time any properly filed application for state collateral review is pending. Haney relies on Simmonds and \u00a7 2244(d)(2) to argue that because his application for state post-conviction relief, filed February 5, 1997, was pending until April 28, 1997, the one-year grace period under Simmonds did not start to run until April 28, 1997 at the conclusion of his state collateral proceedings. As a result, he contends that his federal habeas petition, filed December 3, 1997, fell within the one-year grace period. We disagree.\nUnder Simmonds, Haney had until April 23, 1997 to file his federal habeas petition. Haney filed his application for state post conviction relief on February 5, 1997, which stopped the running of the one-year grace period with only 78 days remaining. The grace period began to run again on April 28, 1997, when Haney's state post conviction relief was finally denied. Thus, Haney had 78 days from that date, or until July 15, 1997, to file his \u00a7 2254 petition. Haney did not file his petition until December 3, 1997. His petition was therefore untimely.\nThe judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. Petitioner's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is DENIED.\n1.We note that Haney filed his notice of appeal within the May 29, 1998 deadline for filing objections specified in the magistrate's recommendation. Although it was received at this court on June 1, 1998, Haney's pro se notice of appeal is considered filed as of May 28, 1998, the date on the certificate of service. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(c); Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266, 275-76 (1988) (inmate's document considered filed when turned over to prison officials for mailing).\n2.In this case, reference to the local rule is similarly of little help in determining where to file one's objections. Local Civil Rule 72.1 in the Western District of Oklahoma provides:\n(a) The objection to any order or report and recommendation entered by a Magistrate Judge on any nonconsent matter shall be filed within fifteen (15) days of the date the order or report and recommendation is either pronounced in open court or filed, unless otherwise directed by the Court.\n(b) Unless the Court directs otherwise, a party shall not file a response to the other party's objections to the proposed findings and recommendations of the Magistrate Judge.\n3.The better practice would be to include in the body of the recommendation that timely objections should be filed with the clerk of the district court.",

        "title": "99-6000 -- Cook v. Apfel -- 08/18/1999",
        "raw_content": "DANELL F. COOK,\nDanell F. Cook appeals from the district court's decision affirming the Commissioner's denial of her applications for Social Security disability insurance and supplemental security income benefits. Applying the same standards as did the district court, we review the Commissioner's decision to determine whether the factual findings are supported by substantial evidence and whether the appropriate legal standards have been correctly applied. See Castellano v. Secretary of Health & Human Servs., 26 F.3d 1027, 1028 (10th Cir. 1994).\nOn appeal, Ms. Cook contends that the administrative law judge, whose decision stands as the final decision of the Commissioner, erred in the following ways: his finding that she could perform the full range of sedentary work is not supported by substantial evidence, and in particular, his credibility analysis is flawed; the ALJ improperly rejected the opinion of Ms. Cook's treating physician; the ALJ failed to meet the Commissioner's step-five burden to demonstrate that she could perform the full range of sedentary work; and the ALJ improperly relied on the Medical-Vocational Guidelines. Because we conclude the ALJ's analysis of Ms. Cook's credibility is inadequate and therefore does not provide substantial evidence to support his finding rejecting her claim of disabling pain, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.\nMs. Cook was born in 1949 and completed the ninth grade in school. She has past work experience as a salad bar server, desk clerk and assembly worker. She underwent a double mastectomy in 1987 followed by insertion of silicone breast implants. The implants apparently have been leaking for some time.\nMs. Cook has been complaining of pain, particularly in her shoulders, but also in her hands, hips and knees, since at least December 1993 when she first visited Dr. Bartel. At that time, Dr. Bartel found that while she had a full range of motion, she had proximal weakness in her shoulders and hips, where her strength was only 70 to 80% of normal, her shoulder muscles had atrophied bilaterally, and there was diffuse muscle tenderness to palpation. Following a variety of tests, Dr. Bartel concluded in January 1994 that she had polymyositis, a chronic, progressive inflammation of muscles usually characterized by pain, weakness and fatigue, and that there was evidence of human adjuvant disease (auto-immune disease). He recommended that she have her breast implants removed as soon as possible and prescribed anti-inflammatory medication. In June 1994, Dr. Bartel found that she had decreased range of motion in both shoulders and tenderness in her biceps. He prescribed pain and anti-inflammatory medication and scheduled her for trigger point injections in her shoulder.\nIn July 1994, on referral from Dr. Bartel, Ms. Cook visited Dr. Herron complaining of continuing shoulder pain that increased with movement. On examining her, Dr. Herron noted that she had no limitation in her shoulder movement until approximately 85 degrees of abduction or forward flexion bilaterally.(1) At that point, she had \"breakaway pain.\" Internal and external rotation of her arms caused significant pain, and her biceps tendon was particularly tender. Dr. Herron diagnosed her as having rotator cuff tendinitis, bilateral biceps tendinitis and polymyositis secondary to silicone breast implant leakage. He injected her shoulder and biceps tendon with an anti-inflammatory steroid (Depo-medrol).\nIn August 1994, Ms. Cook returned to Dr. Bartel complaining that the injections had not helped her pain. Dr. Bartel found that she showed continued decreased range of motion in her shoulders with tenderness near her biceps and along her supraspinatus tendon. He also found that she had continued good strength with deep tendon reflexes and sensory findings within normal limits. His assessment was polymyositis, human adjuvant disease and biceps tendinitis.(2)\nIn January 1995, she went to the emergency room at Duncan Regional Hospital complaining of chronic pain in her chest wall, around her breast tissue and in all of her joints. She told the doctor that she had been diagnosed with polymyositis that was thought to be due to her leaking silicone breast implants. The doctor noted that she did not want to hear about options for removing her implants, but wanted pain medication. In June 1995, Ms. Cook visited Dr. Criswell complaining of bilateral ear pain, muscle spasms and pain in all joints and muscles and leaking breast implants. He treated her ear pain, which was the only complaint within his area of expertise.\nIn her applications for benefits filed in February 1994, Ms. Cook claimed she has been disabled since March 1992 due to chronic joint pain and muscle weakness affecting her hands, shoulders, hips and knees. Her applications were denied initially and on reconsideration. Following a hearing at which Ms. Cook was the only witness to testify, the ALJ found she was severely impaired by polymyositis and human adjuvant disease. Although the ALJ found that she could not perform her past relevant work, which had all been performed at the light exertional level, he found that she could perform the full range of sedentary work unhindered by any nonexertional limitations. Relying on the Medical-Vocational Guidelines, 20 C.F.R. Pt. 404, Subpt. P, App. 2, Rules 201.18 and 201.24, the ALJ concluded that Ms. Cook was not disabled. See 20 C.F.R. \u00a7\u00a7 404.1520(f) and 416.920(f). The Appeals Council denied her request for review, and she then brought this action challenging the ALJ's decision.\nBecause we conclude the ALJ committed reversible error in his analysis of Ms. Cook's credibility, we focus on that issue. The crux of her claim is that she experiences disabling pain. \"To establish disabling pain without the explicit confirmation of treating physicians may be difficult. Nonetheless, the claimant is entitled to have his nonmedical objective and subjective testimony of pain evaluated by the ALJ and weighed alongside the medical evidence.\" Huston v. Bowen, 838 F.2d 1125, 1131 (10th Cir. 1988). That requires that the ALJ assess the evidence of allegedly disabling pain under the framework set forth, inter alia, in Luna v. Bowen, 834 F.2d 161, 164-65 (10th Cir. 1987). See Kepler v. Chater, 68 F.3d 387, 390 (10th Cir. 1995). The following is the ALJ's Luna analysis:\nIn determining that the claimant has the residual functional capacity for sedentary jobs, the Administrative Law Judge has considered the claimant's subjective complaints in accordance with Luna . . . , 20 C.F.R. 404.1529/416.929, and Social Security Ruling 88-13. As set forth above, the claimant's subjective complaints are inconsistent with the hearing record as a whole. Specifically, the lack of objective medical evidence to support the complaints; irregular medical treatment; lack of significant medical restrictions on activities; and response to medication, dictate a finding that the claimant's subjective and non-exertional complaints have had no significant impact on her ability to perform sedentary jobs.\nAppellant's App. Vol. II at 15.\nAs we explained in Kepler, we generally defer to an ALJ's credibility determinations, but \"[f]indings as to credibility should be closely and affirmatively linked to substantial evidence and not just a conclusion in the guise of findings.\" 68 F.3d at 391 (quotation omitted). Although the ALJ considered factors generally relevant to the credibility analysis, see, e.g., id., in his terse discussion, he failed to connect them to the evidence. Further, he did not address uncontroverted evidence he chose not to rely on, see Clifton v. Chater, 79 F.3d 1007, 1009-10 (10th Cir. 1996), and some of his findings appear contrary to the evidence. We address the four factors he considered, and the weaknesses in his analysis, in turn:\nLack of objective medical evidence to support the complaints--We simply do not know what the ALJ means by this. There certainly appears to be objective medical evidence supporting her allegation of shoulder pain, which has been her primary complaint. Dr. Bartel had found that her shoulder strength was only about 70 to 80% of normal, that her shoulder muscles had atrophied, and that her muscles were tender. Dr. Herron noted that she had significant pain on rotation of her arms. Both Drs. Bartel and Herron diagnosed polymyositis, presumably involving her shoulder muscles, and biceps tendinitis, and Dr. Herron also diagnosed rotator cuff tendinitis. They gave her pain medication and steroid injections to alleviate her pain. We agree that there is little if any objective medical evidence supporting her complaints of disabling pain in her hands, hips and knees. Yet, the ALJ's broad statement that there is no objective medical evidence to support her subjective complaints is contrary to the evidence in the record.\nIrregular medical treatment--As the Commissioner points out, Ms. Cook sought medical treatment on five occasions in 1994 and twice during 1995. (The ALJ issued his decision in December 1995.) While these visits might be infrequent enough to help support a conclusion that her pain is not as severe as she claims, she contends that she was unable to afford additional treatment, which may justify her failure to pursue such treatment. See, e.g., S.S.R. 96-7p, 1996 WL 374186, at *7-*8; Teter v. Heckler, 775 F.2d 1104, 1107 (10th Cir. 1985). There is some, somewhat ambiguous, evidence in the record supporting her contention that she has not been able to afford medical treatment. She indicated on several forms that she could not afford further treatment or to have her implants removed, she stated at the hearing that one of the reasons she was seeing Dr. Bartel was because he was willing to wait for payment, and she contended to the Appeals Council that she could not afford treatment.\nLack of significant medical restrictions on activities--We agree that Ms. Cook's doctors have not placed restrictions on her activities. On the other hand, we note that her description of the limited nature of her activities is not inconsistent with someone experiencing considerable pain.\nResponse to medication--As the Commissioner seems to admit, the record does not contain substantial evidence supporting this finding. Contrary to the ALJ's statement that Ms. Cook's shoulder injections were successful, the only evidence regarding the effectiveness of the injections is Ms. Cook's statement to Dr. Bartel that they did not give her any relief. The only other medication she took was pain and anti-inflammatory medication, which she indicated did not provide her significant relief. She also testified that the pain medication she took made her nauseous and very drowsy.\nAttempting to bolster the ALJ's credibility analysis, the Commissioner contends that the fact that Ms. Cook did not have surgery to remove her leaking breast implants, as several doctors recommended, undermines her allegations of disabling pain. However, although the ALJ mentioned her failure to have this surgery, we do not read his decision as relying on this fact for any of his findings or conclusions. Moreover, as noted above, Ms. Cook indicated that she could not afford this surgery.\nIn sum, we conclude that the ALJ neither linked his findings regarding Ms. Cook's credibility to the evidence as required by Huston and Kepler, nor adequately considered all of the evidence relevant to the credibility determination. As a result, his finding regarding her credibility is not supported by substantial evidence, and we must remand the case for further proceedings. We do not mean to imply that Ms. Cook's complaints of disabling pain should necessarily be found credible. But contrary to what the Commissioner asks us to do--i.e., ignore the ALJ's incorrect finding with respect to her response to medication and consider her failure to have her implants removed even though the ALJ did not--we may not reweigh the evidence to draw a conclusion supporting the ALJ's determination. See Winfrey v. Chater, 92 F.3d 1017, 1020-21 (10th Cir. 1996); Casias v. Secretary of Health & Human Servs., 933 F.2d 799, 800 (10th Cir. 1991).\nBecause the ALJ's decision that Ms. Cook's pain does not preclude her from working is not supported by substantial evidence, we REVERSE the district court's judgment and REMAND this case to the district court with instructions to remand the case to the Commissioner for further proceedings consistent with this order and judgment.\n1. There is no indication in the record whether this indicates good or poor shoulder movement.\n2. The record contains one other medical \"report\" from Dr. Bartel dated August 1995. This report stated that Ms. Cook \"is unable to bend, sit, lift, stand, walk, carry, push, or pull with her hands, feet, or arms. Because of this limitation she is considered disabled from gainful employment.\" Appellant's App. Vol. II at 134. The ALJ permissibly rejected this conclusory opinion because there is no indication what medical facts it is based on and it is inconsistent with Dr. Bartel's other reports. See, e.g., Castellano, 26 F.3d at 1029 (discussing reasons for rejecting treating physician's opinion).",

Well in case you\u2019re interested, I spent my extra day with my grandparents. The extra day was a little special for me \u2013 as it is every year \u2013 but this year, my Grandma turned 21. Yes, it appears I\u2019ve overtaken my Grandma in age.\nWith cause to celebrate, I travelled up to the little known town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, where my grandparents live, for the day \u2013 conveniently halfway between Leeds and London \u2013 and off we all went to afternoon tea!\nThis one was from a small cafe, Lakeside (which also serves a good looking Sunday Roast), but there was so much to go for. We also loved the cute mismatch china and cake stands everything came on \u2013 an afternoon tea always feels just that little bit special doesn\u2019t it? Especially for a 21st celebration \u2013 not many people get 2 in a lifetime!\nIn other news, as you read this, I\u2019ll be flying above the clouds on my way to Iceland for the rest of the week so I\u2019ll be a little bit quiet, but watch out over on my Instagram for updates in the meantime!",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab What\u2019s so good about luxury cruise lines?\nStay at the wonderful luxury hotels in Bali \u00bb\nAll selling sites have DSR, or at least a version of it. This way, a buyer will be able to rate the services of the seller according to the shipping, the payment and other services offered to the buyer by the seller. One can give one to five stars depending on what the services of the seller. Now, this is where the problem comes in, especially when it comes to selling a lotto product\nWhen you sell a lotto product, you will be more inclined to have a lower rating than what you had at the beginning of the year for a single sale that did not work out well. in a sense, the DSR rating does not applaud you for the times you have made a good sale, but rather will drop drastically for an error that was made that has nothing to do with you.\nTo explain further, I\u2019m going to describe what exactly happened. I was selling a book about lotto, which is a lotto product. This was then reported in my profile as not the book that the buyer wanted. Given that we were both operating on the premise that this was the book that the buyer wanted, I was expecting more of a civil approach now that my DSR rating was a 4.9. The book was not exactly in the best of shapes when it was brought back and to ad salt to injury, I was supposed to refund the money back to the buyer. The buyer wrote a review but gave a rating of 1star which did not help much.\nThe DSR rate dropped significantly after that one instant and brought the potential for making sales very low for me. it is still a wonder if it happens when selling a lotto product or simply anything on eBay. How come the rate of DSR drop is so high when a mistake is made while the rate of DSR rise is so slow when you make a sale and the seller is satisfied? People will los confidence on a seller they are supposed to be having confidence in when the DSR drops at the same rate.\nGiven the fact that eBay is the largest of its kind in the world, it would be polite leave a DSR rating for a seller whether or not you are buying a lotto product. If you benefit from good services, giving a good rating will keep the seller at a higher pedestal with the rest of the market in eBay.\nInterestingly, and sadly so the DSR rating will drop even when you do not sell anything on eBay. It is like what qualifies you for a drop in the DSR rating is the presence of a profile on eBay. If the DSR is something so important to the sellers and buyers at eBay, it should ease the penalties on sellers. This way, a seller who wants to sell a lotto product will not have to risk so much.\nThis entry was posted on Saturday, January 8th, 2011 at 13:31\tand is filed under Misc.

        "raw_content": "Five Scripture verses about the Eucharist\nBy Derek Pettinelli\t On Jun 11, 2017\nThe Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi) is June 18 this year. Many parishes will host Corpus Christi processions. In Rome, Pope Francis will celebrate a 7 p.m. Mass at the Basilica of St. John Lateran; following Mass he will lead a Eucharistic procession to the Basilica of St. Mary Major, Vatican Radio reported.\nThe Church\u2019s teaching about the Eucharist is deeply rooted in sacred Scripture. Here are just five examples:\n1. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me (John 6:54-57).\n2. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes (1 Corinthians 11:26).\n3. They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. Awe came upon everyone, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles (Acts 2:42-43).\n4. Because the loaf of bread is one, we, though many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf (1 Corinthians 10:17).\n5. I am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died; this is the bread that comes down from heaven so that one may eat it and not die (John 6:48-50).",

        "raw_content": "Redlining Baltimore: Baltimore Homeowners Loan Corporation - 1937 Residential Security Map Polygons\nTo the best of my ability I have redrawn the polygons from the 1937 Baltimore City Residential Security Map. This map was created in ESRI ArcGIS and may be used by anyone. I have added 4 layers also in ESRI ArcGIS, one each for each color: Red, Yellow, Green and Blue for anyone that is interested in studying the red lines or redlining in Baltimore. I also have individual layer files in kmz or shape file formats, if you need them you can email me a request at chamgreen102 at gmail.com . To use the map below one may need to set up a free account with ESRI and click here.\nTo learn more about these polygons and what they represent one may visit Antero Pietila's site for a short synopsis.. The original 1937 Baltimore Residential Security may be downloaded from the Sheridan library at this link.\nThe legend for the 1937 map of which I created these polygons is below.\nHere is an image of the original map.\nThe Explanation of the map provided by the Homeowners Loan Corporation, Division of Research and Statistics, is as follows:\nHome Owner's Loan Corporation used the George Cram 1935 \" Street Map of Baltimore Area\" as a base map to overprint the Residential Security Information. At the time of publication, the following information was prepared by the staff of the Home Owners\u2019 Loan Corporation as an explanation for this map: \u201cPrepared by: Division of Research & Statistics With cooperation of the Appraisal Department May 29, 1937. EXPLANATION Baltimore, Maryland The purpose of the Residential Security Map is to graphically reflect the trend of desirability in neighborhoods from a residential view-pint. Four classifications are used as indicated by the legend, namely: First, Second, Third and Fourth grades. The codes letters and colors are A, B, C, and D, and Green, Blue, Yellow and Red respectively. In establishing the grade of an area, such factors as these are considered: intensity of the sale and rental demand; percentage of home ownership; age and type of building; economic stability of the area; social status of the population; sufficiency of public utilities, accessibility of schools, churches, and business centers; transportation methods; topography of the area; and the restrictions set up to protect the neighborhoods. The price level of homes is not the guiding factor. The First grade of A areas are \u201chot spots\u201d; they are not fully built up. In nearly all instances they are the new well planned sections of the city, and almost synonymous with the area where good mortgage lenders with available funds are willing to make their maximum loans to be amortized over 10-15 year period \u2013 perhaps up to 75-80% of the appraisal. They are homogeneous; in demand as residential locations in \u201cgood times\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d; hence on the upgrade. The Second grade or B areas, as a rule, are completely developed. They are like a 1935 automobile \u2013 still good, but not what the people are buying today who can afford a new one. They are neighborhoods where good mortgage lenders will have a tendency to hold loan commitments 10-15% under the limit. The Third grade or C areas are characterized by age, obsolescence, and change of style; expiring restrictions or lack of them; infiltration of a lower grade population; the presence of influences with increase sales resistance such as inadequate transportation, insufficient utilities, perhaps heavy tax burdens, poor maintenance of homes etc. \u201cJerry\u201d built area are included, as well as neighborhoods lacking homogeneity. Generally, these have reached the transition period. Good mortgage lenders are more conservative in the Third grade or C areas and hold loan commitments under the lending ration for the A and B areas. The fourth grade or D area represent those neighborhoods in which the things that are now taking place in the C neighborhoods, have already happened. They are characterized by detrimental influences in a pronounced degree, undesirable population of an infiltration of it. Low percentage of home ownership, very poor maintenance and often vandalism prevail. Unstable incomes of the people and difficult collections are usually prevalent. The areas are broader than the co-called slum districts. Some mortgage lenders may refuse to make loans in these neighborhoods and others will lend only on a conservative basis. These maps and description have been carefully checked with competent local real estate brokers and mortgage lenders, and we believe they represent a fair and composite opinion of the best qualified local people. In using them we do not mean to imply that good mortgages do not exist or cannot be made in the Third and Fourth grade areas, but we do think they should be made as serviced on a different basis than in the First and Second grade areas. The following local persons collaborated with the field agent in the preparation of this map and the area descriptions: Mr. J.J. Requardt, Real Estate Broker, Robert M. Morfort, Real Estate Broker, Mr. Harry B. Wolfe, Real Estate Broker, Mr. A.D. Clemens, Real Estate Broker, Mr. Joseph M. Hisley, Real Estate Broker, Smith Real Estate Company, Real Estate Broker, Mr. George P. Klein, Real Estate Broker, Mr. Lemmon, Chief Evaluator \u2013 F.H.A, Mr. Ivan McDougal, Professor Economics and Sociology \u2013 Goucher College, Piper and Hill, Real Estate Brokers, Mr. H.W. Irr, Secretary, Pennsylvania Avenue F.S.L.A., Mr. F.W. Brochman, Cashier, West Baltimore Building Association, Dr. Conrad, Home Owners\u2019 Loan Corporation \u2013 Towson, Mr. Francis L/ Smoot, State Appraiser, HOLC, Mr. L. Krover, Assistant State Appraiser, HOLC, and Mr. Wm. Martein, R.E. Operator, Baltimore. NOTE: A street index will be found on back of map. The area descriptions were arranged alphabetically according to the code letter and numerically.\u201d\nBlogger's comment: The blog owner never appreciated all the hoops she had to jump through because in 1989 when she attempted to purchase her home in a neighborhood that was still red-lined by commercial banks and thus she could not get a traditional mortgage. The blog author still remembers clear-as-day when her own bank manager at Maryland National Bank strongly suggested she \"instead buy a house in Glen Burnie\".

        "title": "Chinese Solar Panels",
        "raw_content": "There is a lot of confusion regarding solar panels from China. Recently the USA started imposing tariffs on imported solar panels from China, anywhere from 25% up to 250%. China has been \u201cdumping\u201d products in America and other countries for years, but I don\u2019t believe people really understand what that means, so I will use the solar panels as an example to help explain whats really been going on.\nSome might think the reason products from China are cheaper is because they pay their employees very little, work them around the clock and cut a lot of corners when it comes to quality, and I believe most, if not all that is true. Some really confused people even believe that fat ole lazy Americans are the cause of American Made products costing more. Stating reasons like, they want a lot of money per hour, excessive benefits, short work days, etc. That is just absurd and beyond ridiculous propaganda started buy foreign countries trying to justify their cheaper prices.\nThe real reason Chinese products can sell so cheap in the USA all boils down to subsidizing by our governments and China\u2019s government. Thankfully most of the subsidizing that was coming from our own government has stopped, yep that\u2019s right, our government was basically giving Chinese solar companies money to allow them to import their product, you can thank lobbyist and unintelligent/uncaring politicians for that. Thank God the current administration has caught onto this tactic, but it still does happen. The Chinese government will subsidize the Chinese Solar panel companies if they export their product. That\u2019s right, the Chinese government gives solar panel companies money to export to the USA, allowing them to sell actually below the manufacturing cost! These Chinese based companies would be bankrupt in the USA or any other country but the Chinese government gives them enough money to continue to produce their product. They are not bailing them out, they are subsidizing their product for one reason. They want to undercut all non-chinese made Solar panels and are willing to bankrupt their own companies to do it. They know that the American or European companies will not be able to survive in the red as long as the Chinese companies because ours or European governments would not continue to invest in failing companies, so after they put the non-chinese Solar panel producing companies out of business, they just raise their price and re-coupe their losses. This is called \u201cdumping\u201d and it is illegal, or more so breaks the International trade agreements.\nYou might be wondering where does the Chinese government get all this money? Some of it, very little, is in the form of discounts, much like a tax break, but most of it is actual cash. The Chinese government simply prints more money. Yes, we know this will never work to strengthen an economy, but that\u2019s not the Chinese Governments purpose, they simply need to pay the employees of these companies, and many of the employees do not have high enough education level to understand whats happening. They don\u2019t understand why yesterday they could buy bread and today they can\u2019t. It is a very sad situation.\nThis happens even in our own country, but we do it in the form of government loans. The government believes these companies can turn a profit, so they help them get started, but if they are not turning a profit they file bankruptcy. Solyndra is a perfect example. The difference is that the Chinese government steps in and DOES NOT ALLOW the Chinese companies to file bankruptcy, they just give them more money. In a way it sounds good, the owners are then grateful to the government, and the government knows it, so when the companies start making real money, the government is there to TAKE ALL THE PROFIT.\nThat is what China has been doing and The United States of America took a stand, and other countries soon followed. The European Union is not very happy, they estimate that last year alone, 26.5 Billion dollars were spent on Chinese solar panels being dumped into European countries. That is a lot of money that their own companies could have used to stay in business, because they too have solar panel companies filing bankruptcy.\nThe really sad part is that in the United States we have companies producing solar panels at a fair rate. These panels are far superior to any Chinese made panel, boasting higher wattage and greater efficiency. Simply google American made Solar panels and you will see, just be careful, some of these companies are just the US branch of the Chinese solar producers, but then again, if they are producing in the US, paying US taxes and keeping American people working, I\u2019m ok with that. One true blue American company you should checkout is Helios Solar works out of Wisconsin, they are going to be the next big thing, pretty much already are, and their panels are cheaper (per Watt) than Chinese made products!\n\u00ab Painting Elephants are real!

        "raw_content": "WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE CHEROKEE RAFTING.\nCherokee Rafting was founded in 1978 on the Ocoee River and has grown into one of the top preferred and most respected white water rafting companies in the country. Our competitive edge lies in a passion for safety, superior customer service and building long-standing relationships with satisfied guests. We have one of the best groups of hand-selected river guides who share our same passion for the love of our sport and the Ocoee River. They\u2019re friendly, funny, and well-trained professionals who\u2019ll help you at every step of the way. An exciting, wholesome, action-packed white water adventure is waiting for you at Cherokee Rafting. Come experience the exhilarating rush and see what the Ocoee River is all about!\nI grew up in nearby Cleveland, TN and spent the vast majority of my younger years playing in or around the Ocoee River and the surrounding forests. My father used to bring me down to the river to collect rocks which I would proudly display in rock gardens I created back at home. My first time down the Ocoee River was actually on a boogie board when I was 16...crazy as that sounds, I'm still here, playing in her waters. I began guiding in 1994 and absolutely love the outdoors, mountain biking, camping and climbing waterfalls. I've ran many rivers in the southeastern U.S. including the Gauley, New, Chattooga, Cheoah, and Russell Fork. In 2009, I completed a 21-day expedition with 15 other river friends and rafted 255 miles down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. I graduated from Tennessee Tech University with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration/Marketing. After working in the insurance and music industries for many years in Minnesota, Nashville, and Atlanta, I decided to move back home to the place I love the most. After I dry off from the river, I'm a mortgage loan originator with Platinum Financial Funding. My other hobbies include wearing a kilt and drumming with my bagpipe corp, playing congas with my blues/rock band Blueshammer, or spending time with my lovely wife Alesha and our little boy, Finn.\nCrossfit? First off, I do REAL sports. I'm a Texan with lots of opinions and pretty hair. My life is about as organized as the $5 DVD bin at Wal-Mart. I was addicted to the Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around. I also enjoy eating my tacos over another tortilla. That way when the stuff falls out...BOOM! Another taco!\nHey Y'all! My name is Caleb and I was born and raised right outside of Nashville, TN in a town called Hendersonville. I am currently a student at UTC studying Communications. I really enjoy the outdoors and meeting new people. I was fortunate enough to discover the glory of the Ocoee River when I made it to college in Chattanooga. I love guiding for Cherokee Rafting which has become my river family. My favorite part about guiding is meeting new people I guide down the river. Mother Nature is a wonderful thing, and rafting the Ocoee River with Cherokee Rafting is one of the best ways to enjoy it. I hope you come rafting with us!\nHello! My name is Cade. I've lived 30 minutes away from the Ocoee River my whole life. It wasn't until my first day of training that I finally had a chance to raft it. After that first trip, I was hooked. I love this job each and every day. During the school year, I'm currently aerospace engineering at UT Knoxville. I look forward to coming home every summer to raft! Ask for me, we'll have a blast!\nI dipped my first paddle in the Ocoee River in 1985 when my parents brought me here on a church trip. At the age of 12, my passion for whitewater ignited. Several years later in 2000, I earned the privilege of becoming an Ocoee River guide. I've climbed high peaks, slithered through caves, scaled many a rock face, snowboarded down epic runs; still today my #1 outdoor passion remains whitewater rafting. My life journey has led me from from Alabama to Maine. In my free time I enjoy playing the bass guitar, cooking gourmet meals for my family and friends, and relaxing on the lake. It is an honor to be a part of the Cherokee Rafting family, where it is our goal to provide you and your family with a safe and thrilling adventure of a lifetime. On the River I am a stickler for rules. My #1 rule is... We've gotta have fun! Now, let's go rafting!!\nJosh Sofield\nHow's it going guys? My name is Josh and I'm known as the Bull rider here at Cherokee, got the name from having rode bulls in rodeos for about ten years. I traded in my chaps and spurs for a life vest and a paddle in 1994 and have been on the water ever since! I live in Birchwood, TN and ride horses with my three growing girls. We're all river rats, with the Ocoee running through our veins. We'd love to have you join us!\nRafting has been a friend of mine for over a decade now and I can honestly say it is one of my favorite things in the whole world! This community and its people are awesome and have taken me on some excellent adventures. I have lived all over the U.S. playing outdoors and learning new things. The beautiful Ocoee has always brought me back home. I now live on a mini-farm in Cleveland, TN. I have horses, dogs, chickens, my garden and my flowers. I recently obtained my AEMT license and am looking forward to an exciting new career in Emergency Services. I am so glad to know that the Ocoee and my river friends and family will always be there to go play with me when I want to. Now jump in and Let\u2019s GO! \u201cAdventure is worthwhile in itself.\u201d \u2013Amelia Earhart\nI grew up traveling from my hometown in Georgia to the Ocoee and always enjoyed my trips down the river, so when I started University in Chattanooga decided that I needed to find my way to the water and let me tell you it was the right decision. I have loved every second guiding and taking people like you down the river, so come rafting! It would be a pleasure to show you one of my favorite places on Earth!\nHi, I\u2019m Amanda and I love adventure and travel. My first missions trip in 2009 was when i fell in love with God\u2019s creation and decided to pursue and graduate with a degree in Intercultural Studies. I have only begun my adventures throughout the world. I grew up on the Tombigbee River in lower Alabama. It is incredible tubing and skiing up and down the river with friends and family but it was and is a totally different experience than rafting down the Ocoee where everyday is a new adventure! I never imagined I would be a raft guide but feel extremely blessed to have the opportunity. I love getting to meet new people and know new people. That\u2019s what life is all about right? Come join me for a rafting adventure!\nBarry & Shannon Burch\nTogether, we have been river guides for over 35 years. We met at the Ocoee River, graduated college and settled near Chattanooga to stay close to the rivers, mountains, and people that we love. After countless river expeditions and assorted adventures we both teach Science in the community and have two children, Henry and Ada. We settled at Cherokee Rafting after working for several outfitters over the years. Cherokee is committed to providing their customers with an amazing experience and we are proud to be a part of it. We chose Cherokee for the same reasons that you should.\nBarry Burch\nI grew up in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. My first trip down the Ocoee was a training trip in 1996 and I was hooked. I moved here and built a life in one of the most beautiful places on Earth! The Ocoee is home and where I met my wife. We are blessed with two children, Henry and Ada. I have been a wilderness guide, river guide, climbing guide, mountain bike guide, caving guide and educator in Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, and West Virginia. I have taught outdoor education for community colleges and commercial outfitters for many years and now teach science and social studies to 5th graders. I love teaching, playing music, and adventuring. I believe in taking people out of their element and showing them that they are capable of more than they realize. I hope to see you on the river!\nThe river is a great place to relax and meet new interesting people. I\u2019ve been running the Ocoee since 1989 as a river guide and have enjoyed each exhilarating moment. We experience a closeness as friends that make you feel like family. Although, I have a full time job, I ALWAYS look forward to being with my river family and making new friends on the Ocoee!\nMichael Caywood\nHi. I\u2019m Michael Cawood. I've been guiding on the Ocoee since 1986 and have paddled on many rivers throughout the Southeast. I am originally from Cleveland, TN where I also pastor a church. I enjoy spending time with my wife and 3 children, fishing, hiking and spending as much time as possible in the great outdoors.\nNick Peden\nI have been a river guide since 2008. Outside of guiding you through adventurous whitewater, I am a Financial Advisor for Edward Jones Investments in Sweetwater, TN. I have rafted several rivers around the country, some more beautiful experiences than others, but I love being on the river and showing my crews a great ride. Besides that, I have three dogs (Hammer, LuLu, and Stella). I currently do not have my beard as shown in my profile picture, but give me a couple days on the Ocoee, and I'll have a sweet mustache full of wisdom/manliness. Come see me!\nI am actually a spy and I can karate chop bad guys. I can make contraptions better than MacGyver that seem like they\u2019re blowing up but they never hurt anyone yet serve to distract the bad guys so all the good guys can run away fast. I love to go camping but never do, love to play golf, but don't actually know how, and love to eat Hot Tamales candy, which I quit doing because I did it too often.\nMike Trawick\nI'm originally from West Virginia, where I guided on the New and Gauley Rivers. After being introduced to Cherokee Rafting and the Ocoee River in 1989, it quickly became my whitewater rafting home. I'm able to leave the corporate world behind when I'm at Cherokee Rafting, and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else!\nHailing originally from the Atlanta area, I've been a river rat most of my life. I've known the folks at Cherokee since I was a kid. I recently got married to my lovely bride Ginny and we just bought our first home in beautiful Polk County and enjoy spending time with our two dogs \"Turtle\" and \"Rabbit.\" In my downtime I like to grow facial hair and usually get most of my food caught in my beard. Come raft with the \"Big Midget!\" See you on the water.\nMack Haynes\nOriginally from Old Fort, TN, I spent most of my youth frog gigging in the mountains, jamming forks into light sockets, and building \u201cAmerican Gladiators\u201d style obstacle courses in my back yard. I went to college and studied snack foods. Lately, I've been working on making the perfect goat cheese. I hope to one day have a sandwich named after me.\nJamison Sliger\nI have been rafting since 1997 and have enjoyed every bit of it. It started out as just a job while I was in college but it grew to a passion! I have now succumb to the puppet strings of a 'real' job, but while I look out my window all I see is the Ocoee. I have learned to kayak the last couple of summers, but I don't get to go as often as I would like. Some other rivers under my belt are; Gauley, Chattooga, Cheoah, Cartecay, Big South Fork, and then just some piddling in my kayak. Out of the whole experience I have to say the friends that I have accumulated along the way are the best part. Nothing like a whitewater family!\nThis season will be my 12th year guiding on the great Ocoee River and I wouldn't trade it in for anything. I was born just up the road, so I was able to enjoy the outdoors quite a bit as I was growing up. There was always a tug to want to guide, but I didn\u2019t get to start my rafting career until I was in college\u2026and I\u2019ve enjoyed it ever since! I\u2019ve had the opportunity to raft several rivers, but I\u2019ve only had time to make it to the Gauley River in WV. Unfortunately, I succumbed to the powers that be and got a full-time job, and plan on taking some time off from that big boy job to finally make it to several rivers. I love to travel and I love the great outdoors, so hopefully this will be the year to do so. It\u2019s a blessing to have such a beautiful place to call home and a greater blessing to have a wonderful river family to share it with. Hope to see ya\u2019ll out there!\nI have been working river trips for Cherokee Rafting since 2003, and I have made some great whitewater memories with all of the guides and customers throughout the years. Running rivers and spending time caving and climbing are some of my favorite outdoor activities. I work part-time as a firefighter and full time as a technical rescue instructor, but somehow I always end up back at Cherokee during the rafting season! I have made some lifelong friendships through my adventures at Cherokee Rafting, and can\u2019t wait to continue the journey this summer! See you on the River!!\nHolly Pendergrass\nI began rafting as a teenager with a friend of my sister who worked for a company on the Ocoee. I remember thinking, \"I'm going to do that when I'm old enough!\" I trained over a decade ago and haven't been able to stay away for very long. During a short break, I went to school and became an R.N. I worked for a few companies before finding my home at Cherokee Rafting. The friends you make here become family. If I'm not on the water or in the hospital, you will likely find me hanging out with my dogs or family. Deep sea fishing, rock climbing, board games, and music also fill the rest of my spare time. I look forward to giving you an experience on the river with nothing but a smile and love the whole way through!\nI\u2019m a native of Greensboro, NC who enjoyed success in management, radio, and swim coaching before discovering whitewater. I began rafting professionally in 2002 and in order to help with U.S. labor statistics, now call myself semi-retired. I enjoy the quiet life in beautiful Polk County and around the Ocoee River, canoeing, hiking, gardening, and swimming Parksville Lake when I have extra time.\nI grew up in nearby Cleveland, TN and was lucky enough to spend a lot of time with my family hiking and camping in the Cherokee National Forest surrounding the Ocoee River. Immediately after graduating high school, I knew that working on the Ocoee as a river guide was the perfect fit for me. I\u2019m currently attending college at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga where I\u2019m majoring in Environmental Science. I\u2019m also active in the ROTC program with the intention of joining the U.S. Army upon graduation. The Ocoee River is my favorite place in the world, and I love showing others what it\u2019s all about! My favorite part about being a river guide is the memories created with friends and family that will last a lifetime. Come rafting with me!\nOCOEE RIVER. THE HISTORY.\nIn the upper mountain highlands, natural springs release pure water down mountain slopes known as watersheds. These waters gather into streams that find their way to creeks, flowing until they merge with mountain rivers as they journey across the lands and out to sea. In 1911, President Theodore Roosevelt sought to protect these watersheds and therefore authorized the purchase of these public lands, creating The Cherokee National Forest.\nThe Ocoee River, has its beginnings in the mountains of Northeast Georgia where it is known as the Toccoa River. Its headwaters descend from the mountains in northern Georgia cutting its way into southeastern Tennessee, weaving its rushing whitewater westward, through the Ocoee Gorge and into Parksville Lake.\nOriginally owned by the Eastern Tennessee Power Company, the river was dammed to build hydro-electric plants. The river is now controlled by three dams, operated by the TVA [Tennessee Valley Authority] power company.\nDam No.1 is a hydro-electric plant in the community known as Parksville. The dam itself lies where the Ocoee emerges from the Appalachian Mountains. The East Tennessee Power Company began construction in 1910 and completed it in 1911. The lake is 1,930 surface acres with 109 miles of shoreline developed for recreation. The dam is 135 ft high and 840 ft across. Here, the Ocoee flows east & northward for several miles before feeding into the Hiwassee River which in turn feeds into the Tennessee River and thus the Mississippi.\nDam No.2 was also originally built by the East Tennessee Power Company in 1913. It is 30 ft high and 450 ft across. This structure diverts the water into a wooden flume at the end of which lies the historical Ocoee #2 Hydro-electric Plant. The historic wooden flume still to this day diverts the waters of the Ocoee River into an elevated path, concentrating water pressure for the hydro-electric powerhouse. If you have never seen the Flume it may be hard to imagine. It is a wooden trough measuring 14\u2019 X 10\u2019 stretching 4.7 miles long\u2026yet it falls only 17 feet over that distance. The river itself drops about 250 ft in elevation. The force of the falling water is the secret behind its ability to generate. It was built from yellow pine from the forests of Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee\u2026using just over eight million board feet of lumber. Mules,\nwheelbarrows, picks, shovels, dynamite were the tools of the times. Manpower being the most important one of them all.\nTVA purchased the power system in 1939. In September 1976, the wooden flume was shut down for reconstruction and once again the river ran free. Soon, people began showing up to the Ocoee with army surplus rafts to run the whitewater rapids. Rafters struggled with TVA to obtain the right to ride the whitewater. After much resistance, TVA agreed to schedule water releases into the river, and commercial rafting found a home on the Ocoee in 1977.\nIn 1978, friends thought they were crazy, but owners John and Judy Thomason had a vision. At a time when the sport of whitewater rafting was in its infancy and only a handful of people even had the nerve to run the Ocoee, someone had to do it\u2026right? Having grown up just minutes from the river, John had a plan. There weren\u2019t any self-bailing rafts, the paddles were short and flimsy, and the life jackets looked quite funny. Cherokee Rafting was born.\nAside from commercial rafting trips, whitewater racing events have been held on the Ocoee since 1977, bringing the infamous gorge to the attention of the world making it a world class whitewater river. The Upper Ocoee had been a dry riverbed throughout most of this century, which enabled the manipulation and construction of a world class racing course. Being approximately 100 miles north of Atlanta, helped make the Ocoee the ideal place to hold the 1996 Summer Olympics Slalom Canoe/Kayak competition.\nJuly 1996 brought 14,000 spectators and more than 1,000 volunteers/staff to the banks of the Ocoee River to witness the excitement of approximately 135 world Olympic competitors. The Olympics created a new course and awakened more people to the excitement of whitewater sports.\nIn 2012, the Ocoee was name the #1 whitewater destination in America hosting over 230,000 rafting visitors every year. Quite an accomplishment for waters born from such a rugged yet almost pleasantly designed fate.",

        "raw_content": "Loose Head Ron\nAfter the 1928 All Blacks lost the first test to South Africa the selectors moved Ron Stewart to wing forward, ironically replacing another Christchurch man, George Scrimshaw. He was highly effective but when New Zealand had the put-in he joined the front row on the side the ball was being put into the scrum thus creating the \u2018loose-head\u2019.\nRon Stewart (1904 - 1982) played briefly for the club in the 1930 season having been an outstanding and long-serving South Canterbury representative, making his debut for the province as a 17 year old. The NZ Rugby Almanack of 1983 rated him \u201cone of the country\u2019s greatest loose forwards.\u201d\nBorn in Waikia he was as a member of the Timaru Boys High 1st XV for three years (1918 - 1920) and in 1921 played for South Canterbury against the 1921 Springboks. Standing at an impressive 6ft 1inch and weighing over 15 stones he cut an impressive figure. Allied to his stature he was athletic and fast, an ideal combination for a loose forward. His five tests for New Zealand were either in the back row or as wing forward and much of his representative career was as a back-rower.\nHe made his All Black debut in 1923 against NSW and was selected for the 1924 \u2018Invincibles tour but because of injury only played 9 games on that lengthy tour. He again represented NZ against NSW in 1925 and 1926 impressing with his skill and stamina. Remarkably he played at fullback when the 1926 team played against Auckland on its return.\nA sure selection for the first All Blacks tour to South Africa he played in all 4 tests and 18 of 22 matches and was a key component in the enabling the All Blacks to draw the series 2-2. In 1930 he moved to Canterbury and joined the Christchurch Club, representing the province and also New Zealand in the second test against the 1930 British Isles touring team.\nA newspaper review of the tour said of his performance that, \u201cRT Stewart has been another splendid forward and has further enhanced the reputation he already had before the tour. Stewart was picked as a scrum forward but in many of the matches on tour including the second, third and fourth tests he played wing forward and he seems to have filled that position very satisfactorily. For a man of his size he has a remarkable turn of speed\u2026he took part in no fewer than 18 [of the 22] matches on tour.\u201d\nTeam photographs, especially those of the 1930 Canterbury team show Stewart as a formidable figure. His physicality seems to leap from the faded images and only Alex Wyllie and perhaps Doug Herman have imposed themselves on the camera in such a formidable way. The photo in this profile shows Stewart following Maurice Brownlee on to the field in South Africa and both are ready for action. With Stewart at the heart of the great Christchurch team of 1930, alongside Beau Cottrell and the emerging Jack Manchester. Contemporary reports commented upon the excellence of this particular Christchurch pack of forwards and there is every reason to agree with Beau Cottrell\u2019s assessment that it the best ever forward pack in the club\u2019s history.\nRon Stewart served in the 6th Field Artillery in Italy, including the bitter campaign around Cassino. He was a selector of the famous Kiwi Army team of 1945 and on moving to Southland served as a selector and on the management committee.",

Levin\u2019s clarion call to conservative America, a new manifesto for the conservative movement for the 21st century.\nIn the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelt\u2019s New Deal of the 1930s and resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for re-enforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now. Conservative beliefs in individual freedoms do in the end stand for liberty for all Americans, while liberal dictates lead to the breakdown of civilized society \u2014 in short, tyranny. Looking back to look to the future, Levin writes \u201cconservatism is the antidote to tyranny precisely because its principles are our founding principles.\u201d And in a series of powerful essays, Levin lays out how conservatives can counter the liberal corrosion that has filtered into every timely issue affecting our daily lives, from the economy to health care, global warming, immigration, and more \u2014 and illustrates how change, as seen through the conservative lens, is always prudent, and always an enhancement to individual freedom.\nAs provocative, well-reasoned, robust, and informed as his on-air commentary, Levin\u2019s narrative will galvanize readers to begin a new era in conservative thinking and action. Liberty and Tyranny provides a philosophical, historical, and practical framework for revitalizing the conservative vision and ensuring the preservation of American society.",

Zagajewski is free in his prose, which is a characteristic of the poem allowing for its success.\nThis line, in particular, struck me as one which is constructed in a way which has the ability to transport the reader to the specific imagery the author creates, a talent that Zagajewski clearly has and demonstrates throughout this poem. While not extraordinarily detailed, it is the word choice (specifically, \u201csalty oblivion\u201d) which leaves the reader with a specific memory, scent, or idea of their own, aiding the mental images which come with \u201cTry to Praise the Mutilated World.\u201d\nWhile there is no specific rhyme scheme, I feel that the meter presented within this poem is a factor contributing to its success. As shown here, the poem is written in a style which allows for the words to flow together beautifully, a key component to lucrative poetry. When reading out loud, (to my ear), the words \u201ctogether\u201d and \u201cfluttered\u201d mesh together quite well. Poetry which is read out loud leaves a different impression than when reading to one\u2019s self, and I feel that in order to appreciate \u201cTry to Praise the Mutilated World\u201d to the fullest extent, it must be read aloud.\nThe tone used is also one which further allows \u201cTry to Praise the Mutilated World\u201d to be as well written as it is. The title itself leaves an emphasis of hope in a systematically dark community, evoking sadness from audience members.\n\u201cThe nettles that methodically overgorw\nIt is easy to imagine somewhat of a post-apocalyptic world after reading this section of the poem. Zagajewski is not subtle when reaching for melancholy emotions, something which is clearly presented in his tone and choice of language. Obviously, the context of this poem changed greatly when the attack on the WTC happened, but even before this national tragedy, this poem successfully attempted explaining mournful emotions. This is also something that Szymborska demonstrates in her written works.\nComparing Zagajewski and Szymborska, it is important to note that they are both Polish authors. Either\u2019s work surrounds depressing topics, playing on negative human emotion (of course, depending on the work). Within Szymborska\u2019s work, we see references to wars and the repetition of a negative history (\u201cThe End and the Beginning\u201d), negative emotion regularly found in humans relating to tragedies (\u201cTheater Impressions\u201d), and harsh truths in \u201cReality Demands.\u201d Warfare present in \u201cReality Demands\u201d begs the question of how humans can continue to live knowing the great damage they have done, not only to one another but to the Earth as well.\nBoth of these poems, while not blatantly saying this, are about emotions and human components. Of course, the written subjects differ to a great degree, but they attempt to evoke the same response of being emotionally impacted by the way we treat our planet and different cultures.",

While the station had already grown quite familiar with the truck after receiving it Oct. 1, this event marked the first time many had seen it.\nAnd although the truck was delivered in early October its history goes back more than six years on the Orange Park timeline.\n\u201cAs with many government projects, this took a long time,\u201d Town Manager Sarah Campbell said. \u201cSix years and seven months to be exact...but it\u2019s finally here.\u201d\nIn April 2012, the town\u2019s previous Fire Chief, Ty Silcox, who retired in 2015, proposed buying a new fire engine to then-town manager Cindy Hall at a cost of $400,000. After Town Council adopted the purchase of the truck in June 2012, the truck was added to the Capital Improvement Plan for the 2016-17 fiscal year.\nBut, in 2014, other capital needs took precedent and the purchase was delayed until the 2017-18 fiscal year.\n\u201cIt kept its place in the Capital Plan after that and was fully funded by the Town Council in $475,000 on September 17, 2017,\u201d Campbell said during the event. \u201cThe council then approved the contract to purchase the truck on October 17, 2017.\u201d\nCampbell remembered signing the purchase order for the truck the next day, on October 18, 2017, still one of \u2013 if not the biggest \u2013 purchase orders she has ever signed. She also remembered bugging Fire Chief Alvin Barker, about it for nearly 11 months straight, only to be reminded that buying a fire truck is a lengthy process.\nBarker said that early this past spring, the truck had made its way to the production line, which meant it was only months away from being parked in Orange Park. That day finally came Oct. 1.\nAccording to Barker, this truck, which will be replacing Engine 192, serves as not only a service vehicle that will protect the lives of citizens in Orange Park, but as a memorial for the 343 firefighters that died on 9/11.\n\u201cThere were 343 firefighters that gave their life protecting the citizens that day [9/11] that they swore to protect,\u201d Barker said. \u201cWe were expecting this truck on 9/11, and because of that, we decided that we would memorialize those men and women that gave it all.\u201d\nThe truck didn\u2019t arrive on 9/11, but with graphics on the side and a larger graphic on the back, it still serves as a way to remember the 343. That\u2019s not the only thing special about this truck, though.\nTo combat the risk of cancer that firefighters face on the job, the truck is outfitted with special compartments that will conceal firefighting equipment, such as helmets and jackets that can output harmful gas hours after their use. These gases and toxins increase the risk of cancer in firefighters, but Engine 19\u2019s concealed compartments will trap and safely dispose of the toxins, offgas and more.\nWhile ideally, nobody gets to see a fire truck up close except firefighters and perhaps children on field trips, but given the day came an Orange Park citizen needs help, Engine 19 is ready for action.",

        "raw_content": "The Shah's Iran, SAVAK, Islamic Revolution, Iran-Contra, and the Killing of Olof Palme - Part 1\nDuring the quarter-century reign of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as Iran's Shah, the source he had of staying in power was because of all the trouble that London and Washington had gone to in order to put him in power in the first place. When the Shah and his family suddenly fled Tehran in 1979, it was confident that it would be back, or at least find a comfortable environment in exile, only to learn that neither Britain nor America really wanted anything to do with him, a stance which became even more troubling, given his growing cancer, and the fact that no other country except Egypt really wanted it. Its earthly moves became even more precarious after Iran's mullahs overthrew the monarchy, and its militants seized all the personnel of the American Embassy in November, setting off its terrible ordeal while the 'October Surprise' by the Reagan administration was panning out, a process which was only softened by the Shah's death. The Pahlavis were still confident that its heir, Reza, would someday return to Tehran as Shah.\nMohammad Reza's fall was because he trusted his American overlords too much, believing that the growing communist threat to Iran would always prevent it from happening. As a result, the Shah made himself and his family ever more remote from his people while doing whatever the West demanded, especially allowing Iran's oil to be plundered in an unprecedented manner, and only pursuing nuclear power in ways that it could live with. Thanks to the ouster of Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadeq, every major American oil company joined British ones in gaining a significant part of Iran's oil production without paying any Iranian taxes, and it only increased when Iraq's Saddam Hussein nationalized its oil reserves while Iran only became more beholden to disaster capitalism as it purchased more military weapons than it could afford to meet the alleged Soviet threats, and its own internal opposition, leading some to suspect that he had more expansive ambitions of his own.\nThe Shah then in 1967 nationalized Iran's own oil resources, taking how much oil Iran produced away from OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, driving it for everything it was worth in order to pay for his increasing desire to make Iran a real world power within a generation. Washington, though protesting, was forced to go along openly with anything he demanded about Iran's oil production, and was willing to sell him almost anything but atomic weapons. \"No one can dictate to us,\" the Shah explained. \"No one can wave a finger at us, because we will wave a finger back.\" (1) In the process, Iranian businessmen like Manucher Ghorbanifar and Albert Hakim, suspected SAVAK informants, made fabulous fortunes, \"...constrituted a new court, and one riven with just as many jealousies as that which revolved around the Shah and his family.\"(2) It was because of this growing American influence in Iranian economic and military affairs that the Ayatollah Khomeine broke with the Shah in 1964, and called for his overthrow from Paris in 1978.(3)\nThe plundering of oil in Iran - while in the short term was a bonanza, especially because it was accompanied by an incredible increase in the world price of the commodity - in the long term it became an increasing albatross because it could only be sustained by extra output, what it was soon unable to provide.(4) The contraction of its economy was also exacerbated by its customers, especially Britain and the United States, using covert means to force Tehran to cut its prices and/or yet again increase production. The primary means was to fund minorities of either a national, like the Kurds, or political nature, especially the communists, to oppose the regime - what, of course, just made matters worse. The first director of Iran's National Intelligence and Security Organization aka SAVAK, General Teimur Bakhtiar, was sacked for saying so, and for seeking Washington's assistance in overthrowing the Shah - what the CIA informed him of, and Bakhtiar was replaced in 1961 when he organized demonstrations against reforms that the Shah had authorized. After a decade on the run, organizing efforts to overthrow the Shah, he was finally killed in a hunting accident - what was suspected of having been arranged by Mossad elements still with SAVAK.(5)\nRelations between Tehran and Washington just became more unstable as time went on despite appearances, especially after OPEC imposed an oil embargo on the United States in reponse to the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Just after Nixon's stunning victory in the 1972 presidential election, he had fired Director of Central Intelligence Richard Helms because he had proven difficult in allowing the Agency help cover up the Watergate break-in, and on the spur of the moment, the President had offered Helms the ambassadorial post in Tehran, not because of any covert foreign plan but because of a covert domestic plan - to get him as far away as possible from the blowback from Watergate. While the Shah's enemies thought that the appointment showed that he was simply the CIA's puppet (6), the Shah apparetnly thought otherwise, particularly when Helms became a ravid supporter of his digging his own grave by his rapid transformation of Iran. Helms rejected all advice that the Shah pursue contacts with his opponents, especially Muslim ones, and that the United States distance itself from his increasingly isolated rule.\nThis seemed like part of an American plan to covertly overthrow him when Helms's real thoughts about conditions in Iran just started leaking out in Washington when the Shah and his family hastily left Tehran. \"According to cables from Ambassador Helms to Washington, published by Jack Anderson in 1979, the Shah became irritated by critical publicity about the activities of SAVAK operations in the U. S. in 1976.\" (6) In a later cable, the Shah warned Helms that Iran would respond in kind if America took any action against his agents in the States. The Shah added a month and a half later that he wanted to maintain its special relationship with Washington, and denied that any SAVAK actions were against either the American government or its citizens. Then on January 3, 1977, the Shah told the departing Helms that if any action were taken against his agents in the States, he \" 'would not be able to overlook the presence of seventy of your people who are carrying out activities contrary to Iranian law' or of 'others whom we do not know about officially.' \" (7) In short, the Shah had just about had it with the employees of the American Embassy in Tehran.\nIt would seem that American investigators would be interested in this build-up of SAVAK in the States, and elsewhere, especially in France and Britain, but SAVAK was only of interest when it was going after troublesome dissidents at home, starting with the descimation of a Marxist gang in 1971 which had occupied the gandarmarie of the Caspian village of Siahkal. During the period 1971-1977, SAVAK, led by Parviz Sabeti, killed 368 guerrillas, and executed around 100 political prisoners. \"Once in SAVAK hands,\" Shawcross wrote, \"people would simply disappear.\" (8) In fact, the claims about SAVAK brutality became so widespread that the Shah restrained it somewhat, sending off its agents to more sophisticaed agencies, particularly the CIA, so its method would be less cruel. But the damage had been done, and there was no turning back of the clock when oppostion to the regime mounted. Sabeti wanted to kill 5,000 of the protesters to regain regime stability, but the Shah would not hear of it, confident that he could weather the storm.\nThough it didn't seem obvious at the time, the survival of the Shah's regime seemed to depend upon his surviving the onslaught upon it, or at least make arrangements for the transfer of power to his son, Reza, once he gained his majority. In the meantime, the only likely successor was twin sister Princess Ashraf Pahlavi's son, Shahriar Mustapha Shafiq, taking over if the Shah died or became a hopeless medical problem because of his spreading cancer. Princess Ashraf was completely different from her slightly older, twin brother - bold, outspoken, and most immoral in her economic and family life, just adding to the Shah's problems. While she epitomized everything that was corrupt about the country, as did her elder son Shahram, her younger son Shafiq, who graduated first in his class at Britain's Dartmouth Naval College in the late 1970s, seemed much more interested in expanding Iran's influence in the region, like the Shah himself, than just commanding the elite Hovercraft fleet at the Bandar Abbas naval base. \"The Imperial Navy was supposed to protect the Persian Gulf and to safeguard the oil lanes, \" Shawcross explained, \"but he thought it was not being equipped to do either.\" (9)\nWith such a looming conflict about whether Iran would become the leading secular or Muslim power in the region, it was hardly surprising that when Ayatollah Khomeini returned from exile in Paris, he put the highest priority on determining the condition and outlook of the Pahlavi family, and taking measures which best suited the kind of Iran he sought. While the head of his revolutionary courts, Sadeq Khalkhli, was sentencing the Shah and many members of his court to death, the Ayatollah was busy, figuring out who and how to dispose of first. In doing so, he appointed Hossein Fardoust, head of SAVAK's Special Intelligence Unit, the head of the mullahs' successor, the Ministry of Intelligence and National Security aka SAVAMA. Fardoust had attended Le Rosey school in Switzerland with the Shah, and had been his constant confident ever since. Fardoust obviously knew the worst secrets about the regime, especially his own, and planned to make the most of them for his new employers.(10)\nFardoust had attended to some of the needs of the Shah's sons.He took them back and forth to the Swiss school, Crown Prince Reza now being 19, and his brother Ali Reza just in his teens, getting to know them quite well. More important, Fardoust conveniently saw to the scapegoating of high officials for alleged corruption - what the Shah thought might save himself and his family. Fardoust's former SAVAK boss, yes-man General Nematollah Nassiri - who was more interested in amassing wealth during his tenure in office while similar dandy Parviz Sabeti was actually running in service - was recalled from Islamabad where he was ambassador in November 1978 to face charges. He was noted for his attempts to soften the blows by SAVAK, even having saved Khomneini from execution because of the distress it would cause the common people. The most famous betrayal by the Shah was the arrest of his former Prime Minister Amin Hoveyda on corruption charges, and who was left to face trial and execution soon after the Pahlavis made their hasty escape from Tehran.\nThe most important help that Fardoust supplied the Ayatollah during the moderate government of Mehdi Bazargan was all the information that SAVAK had about CIA's spying - what the Shah had told Helms about - and once Khomeini had settled scores with some of his most notorious underlings, he immediately endorsed the students who overran the American Embasssy in Tehran on November 4, 1979. While the Shah had finally been able to go for New York for treatment, the students discovered that the Embassy had nearly 70 employees, far more than a \"bare bones\" staff it claimed. \"The militants also found thousands of files,\" (11) many of which had been returned to Tehran after Ambassador William Sullivan had ordered their removal, and though many had been shreaded, the militants painstakingly reconstructed them to America's great detriment. \"Over the next five years Iran published more than fifty volumes of documents seized in the embassy in November 1979.\" (12) While most observers saw it as the bitter humiliation of the \"Great Satin\", it also gave the Shah's foreign supporters, especially former SAVAK agents, the green light to do whatever they wanted.\nSAVAK personnel now working for the mullahs, like Faroust, wanted to reduce the dying Shah's family from ever returning to Tehran as his successor - what the captured documents best focused on - showing that Shahriar Shafiq, Ashraf's son, was the most threatening descendant. On December 7, 1979, he was gunned down in Paris - where former SAVAK informant Ghorbanifar had conveniently relocated, allegedly fleeing in terror - as he walked to his sister's apartment in the rue de la Villa Dupont, carrying her some groceries. \"A young man wearing a wraparound crash helmet fell in step behind him, pullted out a pistol and shot him in the back of the head.\" (13) For good measure, the assassin shot him again in the head, and then disappeared into a crowd on rue de Pergolese, never to be seen again. Shafiq had escaped from Iran after the revolution started, eluding Republican Guards giving chase as he made his way to Kuwait. He signed his own fate by calling his mother, and telling her that \"...he was determined to go back to Iran.\" (14)\nIn January 1979, just before the Shah left Tehran, Khomeini supporters overran its embassy in Washington, putting its employees to flight. The Ambassador Ardeshir Zahedi rejoined the Shah's entourage while its press attache Ali Tabatabai was staying in the States, and organizing the Iran Freedom Foundation, becoming its president. By the next year, it had put together a counter-revolutionary group - headed by former Prime Minister Shahpour Bakhtiar, and including former Iranian Generals Gholarm Ali Oveissi and Ahmed Pelizben - to overthrow the Ayatollah with the help of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. \"We know there are military units inside Iran which support any serious move to restore order,\" Tabatabai explained. \"The goal of such a movement would be to establish a military government for two or three years, followed by a popular referendum on the country's future.\" (15)\nHardly had the press spokesman returned home to Bethesda, Maryland, than he was gunned down by an American Muslim, Dawud Salahuddin, when he went to settle a dispute at the front door between one of his bodyguards and the assassin over the delivery of a package. SAVAMA paid him $5,000 to do the killing, and he fled to Tehran afterwards where he remained unnoticed, though being wanted by the FBI. It was only a year later that Tehran admitted the existence of SAVAMA, denying that it was like other countrys' intelligence services because it observed Islamic principles. Still, the planned overthrow of the mullahs went ahead, with Saddam's forces attacking in September, but only making modest advances because of the warnings given. The war permitted Israel to kill off Carter's fadding hopes of settling the Palestinian question - what Prime Minister Begin kicked off with the July 1981 bombings of South Lebanon and Beirut, and PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat finished by responding (16)\nThe only way that the Ronald Reagan's presidential campaign in the States could take advance of the situation was for it to promise Tehran that he would undo measures that the Carter administration had taken against it, and more if it only delayed any release of the American hostages there until after the election. Reagan told campaign supporters that he had a \"secret plan\" to solve the crisis - what Washington was still trying to settle with special offers of its own. \"My ideas require quiet diplomacy,\" he disclosed, \"where you don't have to say what it is you're thinking.\" (17) Vice presidential Republican nominee George H. W. Bush, and DCI designate William Casey, acting upon the briefing books former CIA Security Director Robert W. Gambino had stolen from White House about what it was attempting with Khomeini (18), had arranged the surprise by meeting Iranian agents in Paris and Madrid. \"If the October Surprise was accurate,\" Vankin and Whelan wrote, \"then it seems the secret arms-for-hostages deals exposed during the Iran-Contra scandal could be back dated to 1980:\" (19)\nThe reason why the October Surprise was not more quickly identified as the beginning of Reagan's arms-for-hostages ploys was because all investigations of the process were so slow in coming, and so belated in releasing any accurate findings. This was especially true after Iran-Contra itself started being exposed. While Iran had been able to regain the initiative in its war with Iraq, thanks to the release of its funds, and the continuing supply of weapons despite the sanctions the Carter administration had imposed, conditions were becoming most difficult for Tehran by 1985. In 1983, Reagan's personal envoy to Baghdad Donald Rumsfeld declared that \"the defeat of Iraq in the three-year-old was with Iran would be contrary to U. S. interests.\" (20) The following year, Washington resumed diplomatic relations with Iraq, and was supplying it with all kinds of weapons, including helicopters for gas attacks which were inflicted upon their domestic opponents.\nIn this desperate situation, former SAVAK informants and current Iranian businessmen Ghorbanifar, Hakim, and retired US Air Force Major General Richard Secord became busily involved in getting any weapons they could, and they were fairly successful in doing so despite Washington*s Operation Staunch where allies were urged not to supply weapons to Iran. During 1984, Hezbollah, a Shiite group which Iran favored, had captured seven new American hostages in Lebanon, including the CIA's chief of station in Beirut, William Buckley. National Security Advisor Robert \"Bud\" McFarlane was not happy with the policy, and worked around it to make sure that Tehran did not fall under Moscow's influence after the expected death of the Ayatollah. Despite the opposition of the State and Defense Secretaries to dealing with hostage takers, \"...the president approved the transaction. Israel, through Ghorbanifar and his private intermediaries shipped ninety-six wired-guided antitank (TOW) missiles to Iran on August 30 and another 408 on September 14. One hostage was released.\" (21)\nDespite this puny result, MacFarlane, Oliver North and Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres' counterterrorism adviser Amiram Nir and former Mossad director David Kimche developed a plan whereby Ghorbanifar, Al Schwimmer and Yaacov Nimrodi would provide 150 HAWK, 200 Sidewinder, and about 50 Phoenix missiles to Tehran on planes supplied by Schwimmer and Nimrodi. (22) Grand Ayatollah Hossein Montazeri had just become Iran's Supreme Leader. The CIA could not be officially used because it would have nothing to do with Ghorbanifar - suspecting that he was now a SAVAMA agent because he had flunked two lie detector tests, and \" 'should be regarded as an intelligence fabricator and a nuisance.' This known liar was the reed on which McFarlane and Kimche proposed to build the new U.S relationship with Iran.\" (23) The plan's attractiveness was based upon shipping the military hardware through Sweden - what would make it look like it was the intended user of the weapons which would faciltate Pentagon resupply to Israel for what it had provided, and make its distrusted Prime Minister - Olof Palme, who was trying to arrange a settlement of the Iran-Iraq War - a complete fraud if the shipments were ever exposed.\nThe trouble started with the plotters not getting presidential approval for what was planned, and informing Congress. Ollie North was given the responsibility of informing the government of the third unnamed country, apparently Sweden, of what was planned and getting approval for it, but he didn't get round to having Secord do it before the plane departed. Then Palme was tipped off about the shipment on November 17th, forcing the El Al plane with 80 HAWK missiles aboard to return to Israel in mid-flight, and additional planes, awaiting word in \u00d6udvika that four hostages had been released before taking them to Tehran, were left with nowhere to go. Then the plotters hastily put together another shipment on November 24th, 18 outdated HAWK missiles with the Star of David painted on them which the Iranians refused to accept. The project was then left in limbo as the President's men decided upon its suspension for the time being - what Ghorbanifar refused to pass along to the Iranian for fear that it would result in the deaths of the hostages. (24)\nThe most likely source of Palme's intervention was former SAVAK director in Washington Mansur Rafizadah, who became a CIA agent after the fall of the Shah, though Saddam's Ambassador to Sweden Mohammed Saeed al.Sahaf, aka \"Baghdad Bob\" during his 2003 ouster, could have been the source. They both wanted weapons shipped to Tehran stopped, but for different reasons. Rafizadah was opposed to any assistance that Ghorbanifar arranged because he claimed that he was now working for SAVAMA. In fact, Rafizadah even divulged to Time magazine way before American investigators discovered that Iran-Contra was a two-pronged illegal project, approved by the President, to improve relations with Iran by providing arms-for-hostages while using the proceeds to fund the Contras.(25) Ghorbanifar was able to get Reagan to revive the effort with his promises, though he still refused to work with the CIA. Ultimately, according to Rafizadah, the suspected SAVAMA agent was cut out of the process, and the White House went it alone in \"Operation Recovery\", after the President signed two more findings to justify the effort, supplying Iran with two shipments of 500 TOW missiles each on February 18th and 27th.(26).\nThe next day at 11:30 a.m., according to Jan Bondeson in Blood on the Snow, \"Baghdad Bob\" informed Palme that Swedish arms maker Bofors had been again illegally sending weapons to Iran (27) - what infuriated him since as recently as February 4th, he had told an Iranian military delegation that it would not be getting any weapons from Sweden as long as he was in charge. (28) Whether the Iraqi ambassador really thought that Bofors was the culprit or was just taken in by the ploy North's people used to transfer the shipments into planes where Bofors is located in Ludvika to make it look like Palme's government was violating the law, the violations of Swedish sovereignty set off alarms bells for the statsminister. Before the 1985 election, the statsminister had appointed a special prosecutor to stop such action, and he had been alerted to what was going on by Palme blocking the November shipments. Then Sweden had an agency known as SSI, the Section for Special Collection, to pick up human intelligence, and telephone and radio transmissions about such illegal activities, and the still more secret Intelligence Bureau which liaised with foreign intelligence agencies, especially the CIA and Shin Bet, to make sure that nothing like this happened.\nPalme immediately concluded that Swedish authorites - not Bofors as Bondeson has claimed (29) - were aiding and abetting American-Israeli officials who were interested in his undoing, and he challenged them to protect him and members of his family when they went without informing his bodyguards to the Grand Cinema on Sveav\u00e4gen to see the film, The Brothers Mozart. Palme relied upon the KMS, Ltd. bodyguard reassessors, - who had been casing his apartment in the Old Town for the last few days - to protect them from anything untoward, not knowing that these British military veterans had been brought into the plot just in case Palme's assassintion proved necessary. Members of the team, especially assassin Captain Simon Hayward, it seems, had been practicing for this possible eventuality with the stakeout of an IRA arms cache in Magherafelt, Northern Ireland, if and when young Francis Bradley was obliged to come and move it. When North went ahead with the shipment on February 18th, it triggered Bradley's assassination later the same day.(30) When the second occurred on February 27th, it was Palme's turn, though he did not know that his gamekeepers had turned poachers..\n1.

These small works on paper \u2013 symbolic images rendered, blurred, refocused, fragmented, and dissolved into fields of color \u2013 mirror nature\u2019s endless transformations. The paper is sometimes creased, torn, and punched with holes. The fragility of works on paper is a reminder of the delicate balance of natural forces we inhabit.\nThe Golden Ratio proportions in these paintings are informed by my study of Sacred Geometry: the confluence of art, science, and spirituality, which constitutes a common ground between many of the world\u2019s cultures and traditions. This language of number and symbol (circle, triangle, and square) can be used to express profound ideas about the nature of existence.\nCrimson Canyon 4\nRectangularity is one example of how human intelligence selects from and frames the continuous flow of experience that might otherwise be overwhelming. Nature is beautified and savored through a safe window. This can induce boundary dissolving aesthetic experiences, or compartmentalized thinking, which perpetuates the ecological crisis \u2013 a conundrum that haunts the current conversations about art and nature.\nThere are no words, representations of humans, or domesticated species in this series, but eroded cultivations and rudimentary structures in various states of decay. Painting endures as human evidence, even when evoking a post \u2013 human world. It no longer seems possible to fall into the lap of nature and hope everything will work out: there\u2019s been too much damage and denial regarding earth\u2019s finite resources. If nature is larger than human intelligence, then let\u2019s welcome unanswered questions by learning from and cooperating with nature.\nKarl Lorenzen is a professional artist who exhibits and teaches at leading holistic learning centers.

Is my concern over rising inequality an ethical or perhaps an aesthetic judgement, and thus a personal preference where economics really doesn't have much guidance to offer? Faced with this possibility, the temptation arises to claim the following syllogism: 1) We have experienced greater inequality, which is undesirable. 2) We have experiences slower economic growth, which is undesirable. 3) Therefore, greater inequality causes slower economic growth.\nA variety of studies have undertaken to prove a connection from inequality to slower growth, but a full reading of the available evidence is that the evidence on this connection is inconclusive. For example, the OECD has recently published a report called \"In It Together: Why Less Inequality Benefits All,\" and Chapter 3, titled \"The Effect of Income Inequality on Economic Growth,\" offers an OECD analysis seeking to connect the two. But before presenting the new study, the OECD report has the honesty and forthrightness to point out that the full body of literature on this subject is inconclusive as whether such a relationship even exists--and if so, in what direction the relationship goes.\nThe report first points out (pp. 60-61 that as a matter of theory, one can think up arguments why greater inequality might be associated with less growth, or might be associated with more growth. For example, inequality could result less growth if: 1) People become upset about rising inequality and react by demanding regulations and redistributions that slow down the ability of an economy to produce growth; 2) A high degree of persistent inequality will limit the ability and incentives of those in the lower part of the income distribution to obtain more education and job experience; or 3) It may be that development and widespread adoption of new technologies requires demand from a broad middle class, and greater inequality could limit the extent of the middle class.\nIn passing, it's worth noting that the first reason falls into the category of \"frustrated people killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.\" In other words, finding a correlation between rising inequality and slower growth could be a sign of dysfunctional responses to the rise in inequality.\nOn the other side, inequality could in theory be associated with faster economic growth if: 1) Higher inequality provides greater incentives for people to get educated, work harder, and take risks, which could lead to innovations that boost growth; 2) Those with high incomes tend to save more, and so an unequal distribution of income will tend to have more high savers, which in turn spurs capital accumulation in the economy. The report doesn't mention a third hypothesis that seems relevant in a number of developing economies, which is that fast growth may first emerge in certain regions or industries, leading to greater inequality for a time, before the gains from that growth diffuse more widely across the economy.\nGiven the competing theoretical explanations, what does the actual evidence say? The OECD writes\n(pp. 61-62):\nThe large empirical literature attempting to summarize the direction in which inequality affects growth is summarised in the literature review in Cingano (2014, Annex II). That survey highlights that there is no consensus on the sign and strength of the relationship; furthermore, few works seek to identify which of the possible theoretical effects is at work. This is partly tradeable to the multiple empirical challenges facing this literature.\nThe report then goes on to discuss issues like: 1) variations in estimation methods, including whether the analyst looks at one country over time, multiple countries at a point in time, or multiple countries over time, along with the statistical tools used; 2) in many countries around the world, the data on income distribution is not measured well, not measured consistently over time, and not measured in ways that are easily comparable to other countries; 3) in empirical studies the already-weak data on inequality is often boiled down into a single number, like a Gini coefficient or a ratio between those in the 90th and 10th income percentiles, a simplification that might miss what is happening; 4) the connections between income inequality and growth might differ across groups of countries (like high-income and low-income countries), and looking at all countries together averages out these various effects; and 5) whether (and how) the researcher should take into account factors like the extent of progressive taxation and redistribution, the extent of financial markets, or the degree of economic and social mobility over time.\nThere's an old saying that \"absence of evidence is not evidence of absence,\" in other words, the fact that the existing evidence doesn't firmly show a connection from greater inequality to slower growth is not proof that such a connection doesn't exist. But anyone who has looked at economic studies on the determinants of economic growth knows that the problem of finding out what influences growth is very difficult, and the solutions aren't always obvious. For example, the OECD study argues that inequality leads to less investment in human capital at the bottom part of the income distribution. If this result holds up in further study, an obvious answer is not to focus on inequality directly, but instead to focus on additional support for human capital accumulation for those most in need.\nThere are a few common patterns in economic growth. All high-income countries have near-universal K-12 public education to build up human capital, along with encouragement of higher education. All high-income countries have economies where most jobs are interrelated with private and public capital investment, thus leading to higher productivity and wages. All high-income economies are relatively open to foreign trade. In addition, high-growth economies are societies that are willing to allow and even encourage a reasonable amount of disruption to existing patterns of jobs, consumption, and ownership. After all, economic growth means change.\nOn the other hand, it's also true that fast-growing countries around the world, either now or in the past, show a wide range of levels and trends of inequality, as well as considerable variation in the extent of government regulation and control, patterns of taxation and redistribution, structure of financial sector, and much more. Consider the pattern of China's fast economic growth in recent decades, with rising inequality and an evolving mixture of private initiative and government control. At least to me, China looks like a situation where growth is causing inequality, not where inequality is slowing growth. It may be that the question of \"does inequality slow down economic growth\" is too broad and diffuse to be useful. Instead, those of us who care about both the rise in inequality and the slowdown in economic growth should be looking for policies to address both goals, without presuming that substantial overlap will always occur between them.\nThe nickname \"the sharing economy\" seems like a triumph of public relations artistry. The term refers to firms based on software that allows people to rent a room in someone's house (like Airbnb) or pay for a ride in someone's car (like Uber or Lyft). At least in the kindergarten where I learned all of my sharing values, being compensated was not a form of \"sharing.\" As an alternative title, I've proposed the \"finding ways to get paid for excess capacity\" economy, but it doesn't quite trip off the tongue. Better is the \"matching economy,\" which captures the idea of using the web to match up a potential buyer and seller who would otherwise have had no way to connect.\nFirms like eBay can be thought of as the first generation of the matching economy, but people selling stuff to each other displaced relatively few existing workers and raised relatively few public policy issues. Tim Sablik offers an overview of the current issues in \"The Sharing Economy: Are new online markets creating economic value of threatening consumer safety?\" in the Fourth Quarter 2014 issue of EconFocus, published by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. He points out that in some industries, the growth of supply as a result of the matching economy has been quite substantial:\n\"The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that there were 233,000 taxi drivers and chauffeurs in the United States as of 2012, but new services are substantially adding to that number. According to a recent study by Uber's head of policy research Jonathan Hall and Princeton University economist Alan Krueger [discussed here], the company had more than 160,000 active U.S. drivers in 2014. That alone nearly doubles the supply of short-term transportation, not counting Uber's competitors like Lyft and Sidecar. Similarly for the hotel industry, Airbnb boasts over a million properties in nearly 200 countries, surpassing the capacity of major hoteliers like Hilton Worldwide, which had 215,000 rooms in 74 countries in 2014.\"\nSablik points to evidence that the additional competition has led to better deals for consumers, not just the consumers who use matching economy firms, but also because the traditional competitors offer better deals, too. The matching economy firms can be especially useful when there is a spike in demand--like a city hosting a Super Bowl or a political convention. Moreover, the idea of the matching economy is taking on many forms. Here's a list of some sharing economy firms from Sablik:\nAn article in the Economist magazine for January 3, 2015, discussed how the matching economy was reaching into the labor market.\n\"In San Francisco, ... young professionals ... can use the apps on their phones to get their apartments cleaned by Handy or Homejoy; their groceries bought and delivered by Instacart; their clothes washed by Washio and their flowers delivered by BloomThat. Fancy Hands will provide them with personal assistants who can book trips or negotiate with the cable company. TaskRabbit will send somebody out to pick up a last-minute gift and Shyp will gift-wrap and deliver it. SpoonRocket will deliver a restaurant-quality meal to the door within ten minutes.\"\nSo what are the issues or problems with the matching economy? Here is how I see them.\n1) The new suppliers in the matching economy only have a cost advantage because they are breaking existing rules or otherwise underregulated. When you purchase a traditional taxi-ride or a hotel room, you are actually paying for more than the basic service. You are also paying for health and safety inspectors, for an assurance of certain kinds of required training and certification, for liability insurance, for limits on the possibilities for price-gouging, and often for brand-name reputation. From this standpoint, the problem isn't that there is more competition, but rather that the competition doesn't need to play by the same rules.\nThis concern has some force, but there are counterarguments. It's worth noting that new entrants are not completely unrestricted. Many of the matching economy firms do background checks on those providing services, and may require that they carry specific insurance. Users of the services can rate the providers, as well as looking at previous reviews. Sablik writes: \"Portland, Ore., has partnered with Airbnb to promote the service through its tourism bureau. The city may stand to gain from the deal. According to Airbnb's own studies, its guests tend to stay longer and spend more than typical tourists. For its part, Airbnb agreed to work with the city to ensure hosts meet safety requirements. It also agreed to collect and remit lodging taxes to Portland on behalf of its hosts.\"\nThe rise of the matching economy should also force government to take a fresh look at what regulations are needed. However, it's a well-known phenomenon in regulatory economics to have a situation in which large existing competitors welcome regulation, because the regulations help to block small and innovative new competitors--and the costs of the regulations can then be passed along to consumers. Maybe it's an obvious point, but the goal of regulation be to provide benefits to consumers in excess of the costs imposed, not to hobble new competitors. The appropriate regulations for Airbnb should differ in a number of relevant ways from the regulations for a standard commercial hotel.\n2) Benefits to consumers should matter a lot. may well be true that some of the advantage of matching economy firms is that they face a lighter regulatory hand, but that's probably not their main advantage. The main advantage is that customers like what they provide. Who benefits the most from having a greater supply of car-ride services in New York? It's clearly those with low incomes, who have an improved option to call for a ride, to know who is coming, and to know what the price will be. Some people will feel more secure riding with someone whose name and face and customer reviews they can see in advance, rather than with a stranger who drives up in a taxi. Some people like staying in other people's houses, at least some of the time, while others prefer the characteristics of a hotel or resort, at least some of the time. It\n3) Too many of the jobs in the matching economy are low-paid temp work, not \"good\" jobs. It's easy to conjure up a mental vision in which the matching economy comes down to rich people paying poor people to drive them places, pick up their dry-cleaning, deliver their groceries, and the like. It's also easy to imagine that the workers in those jobs may be working for low hourly pay, with unreliable fluctuations in their income and no benefits. Clearly, some of the jobs in the matching economy will fall into that category. But not every job needs to involve a career path. it's easy to think about someone who is just trying to pick up some extra income, like a college student, who is delighted with the flexibility of the job. Moreover, at least some of the matching economy companies are guaranteeing workers who want it a minimum number of hours, or offering benefits like insurance.\nOverall, my own sense is that some jobs are just hours and a paycheck, and other jobs are careers. Trying to more toward an economy where career-type jobs are more available--meaning jobs where there is value to a lasting tie between worker and employee, and where the employee has possibilities for initiative, growth, and advancement, is a policy challenge for another day. Here, I'll just note that we are going to start passing rules and laws that only \"good\" jobs are allowed, while trying to limit jobs with low pay or limited prospects, it's not clear to me that jobs in the matching economy are the problem, or that jobs in the matching economy are worse more than a lot of existing jobs in the conventional hotel or taxi industries, or in the retail and services sectors in general.\n4) Current suppliers of the service don't like the new competition. Without meaning to be hard-hearted about it, my sympathy level for this complaint is low. As Sablik points out, in New York city it cost about $1 million to buy the medallion that gives the right to drive a traditional taxicab. That high price suggests that existing owners (who are often quite different from the taxicab drivers) had been quashing new competitors and earning monopoly profits. If we want an economy that is growing and offering opportunities, we need to accept that current suppliers of goods and services will face new competition and need to adapt.\nOnly a few countries around the world have gone so far as to \"dollarize\" their economy--that is, using the US dollar as a predominant legal currency. According to an IMF characterization of exchange rate regimes, the dollarized economies include some small island nations with close historical or economic ties to the US, but also Ecuador, El Salvador, Panama, Timor Leste, and Zimbabwe. However, in a number of other countries the US dollar plays a very substantial role in bank deposits and lending. The IMF has been offering some comments and reports on the tradeoffs of dollarization, often with a strong hint that it might be beneficial to do less of it. For example, Naoyuki Shinohara\nDeputy Managing Director of the IMF, made these comments in a February 2015 conference:\n[M]any Frontier and Developing Asian economies are also highly dollarized. In some cases, high dollarization can facilitate trade. But there are drawbacks, such as limiting exchange rate flexibility to mitigate against external shocks, and constraining the central bank\u2019s ability to be the lender of last resort. Under such circumstances, consideration could be given to actively promote de-dollarization. But de-dollarization is a long process and requires a commitment to strengthen policies and institutions.\nAn IMF staff team led by Mauro Mecagni and Rodolfo Maino has published a May 2015 report on \"Dollarization in Sub-Saharan Africa: Experience and Lessons.\" Along with specific information about the extent of dollarization across this region--other than the official dollarization of Zimbabwe--the report does a nice job of reviewing the tradeoffs involved.\nWhat economic factors that often lead to dollarization? The IMF team lists four main causes:\nLarge macroeconomic imbalances and high inflation. Several countries around the world (for example, Chile, Colombia, and Peru) became dollarized following periods of macroeconomic turbulence and high inflation that encouraged the substitution of domestic currency with the U.S. dollar. Dollarization may thus result from a legacy of severe economic disruption.\nFinancial repression and capital controls. Many Latin American economies in the 1970s and 1980s as well as many SSA [sub-Saharan Africa] countries (for example, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Liberia, and Nigeria) have become dollarized following periods of financial repression and the imposition of capital controls.\nUse of the dollar as anchor for macrostability. Some countries (for example, Ecuador, El Salvador) adopted the dollar as legal tender in order to escape from a long history of monetary and financial disorder by \u201cimporting\u201d the credibility of the U.S. monetary institutions.\nUnderdeveloped financial markets. In several countries, domestic borrowers contract debt in foreign currencies in response to the lack of domestic currency alternatives in incomplete financial markets.\nAlthough dollarization arises as a response to economic problems, it brings tradeoffs of its own. A dollarized economy by definition has no control over its own monetary policy--and there is no particular reason to think that decisions made by the US Federal Reserve will suit the economic needs of other countries. A dollarized economy is also vulnerable to rises and falls in the exchange rate of the US dollar. A particular problem can arise in a partially dollarized economy when the government, or large banks and firms, have borrowed in US dollars, planning to receive funds in the local currency of the country, convert to US dollars in the foreign exchange markets, and repay the US dollar loans. If the exchange rate moves sharply, it can become impossible to repay those US dollar loans (a dynamic that was one of the roots of the East Asian financial crisis in 1998).\nThe IMF study chooses a threshold in which if the ration of a foreign currency deposits to total deposits is more than 30%, an economy is said to be \"dollarized.\" Here's the picture for sub-Saharan Africa as of 2012, with the extent of dollarization shown as a share of bank deposits and a share of bank loans. Moving clockwise from east to west, an arc of countries including Angola, Congo, Uganda, Tanzania, and Mozambique are relatively heavily dollarized.\nThe IMF researchers look for past examples of de-dollarization in recent decades, including Israel, Poland, Bolivia, Peru, and Angola. Overall, they sum up the de-dollarization efforts in this way:\nExperience also shows that dollarization is often difficult to reverse. While the use of a foreign currency as a store of value or for domestic transactions has increased sharply in several countries over time, there are fewer cases in which this trend has been significantly reversed. Memories of macroeconomic instability and hyperinflation\u2014the key factors that encourage dollarization\u2014do not wither away easily, encouraging economic agents to maintain foreign currency denominated assets even when macroeconomic conditions have stabilized and policy credibility has been established.\nAs one might expect, the main steps to reduce dollarization focus on controlling inflation and achieving macroeconomic stability, so the main incentives behind dollarization are reduced. Passing laws and regulations to outlaw dollarization doesn't tend to work well; it only emphasizes the desperate problems of the local currency, thus making dollarization look more attractive. But the IMF team points out that when a country has its macroeconomic fundamentals under control, it can also nudge its economy along the de-dollarization trajectory in other ways. For example, it can set financial regulations for local banks that require them to take the foreign exchange risks of lending in US dollars into account--which pushes the bank toward holding more reserves and doing more lending in the local currency.\nIn a globalized economy, banks and firms in all countries are going to be involved in foreign currency exchanges. There can be a reasonable economic case for similar nearby countries to link their currencies together. But when dollarization becomes highly prominent, it's typically a signal that the government's economic policies are mistrusted or incompetent or both.\nThe single largest federal program for providing cash assistance to those with low incomes is the Earned Income Tax Credit, which in 2014 reduced taxes owed by the working poor by about $3.6 billion while transferring to those households an additional $60.8 billion (according to Table 14-1 in the Analytical Perspectives volume of the proposed US budget. This isn't as much as programs with non-cash benefits, like Food Stamps and Medicaid. But it's more than what is spent on welfare, or on the Supplemental Security Income program for the low-income disabled and elderly. In \"Earned Income Tax Credit in the United States,\" which appears in the Journal of Social Security Law (2015, 22:1, pp. 20-30), Elaine Maag provides a useful overview of the program.\nFor economists, the big selling point of the EITC is that it rewards work. The classic problem that arises when government provides assistance to those with low income levels is that as a person works to earn an extra $100, they often find that the government benefits are then reduced by nearly that same amount or sometimes even more. As a result, many low-income people who work are saving the government some money, but not much increasing their actual after-benefits, after-taxes standard of living. In contrast, the EITC is set up so that the work disincentives are greatly reduced. Maag offers a graph familiar to those who know the program that shows how it operates.\nThe different lines in the graph represent single-earner families with different numbers of children. Maag explains the situation for a family with one child:\n\"In 2014, a family with one child was eligible for a subsidy of 34 cents for each dollar earned up to $9,720\u2014a maximum credit of $3,305. A family qualified for the $3,305 credit until its income reached $17,830. At that point, the EITC declined by almost 16 cents for each additional dollar of earnings; the credit phased out completely once earnings reach $38,511 (figure 1). Larger credits are shown for families with more than one child, as well as the small credit available to a family with no custodial children.\"\nThus, a low-income person with one child who starts working gets a bonus of 34 cents on the dollar up to a certain level of earnings--which helps to offset their declining eligibility for other government benefits. For this family, the credit does phase out above $17,830 in income, so each $1 earned above this amount means that the amount of the credit falls by about 16 cents. This represents a lower incentive to work--but losing only 16 cents in benefits for every $1 earned is a lot better than losing, say $1 in benefits for every dollar earned. And any means-tested program has to be phased out in some way as income levels rise. Along with the federal EITC, 23 states have also added their own versions of the EITC to their state-level income tax codes.\nMaag reviews the empirical evidence that the EITC does seem to encourage greater levels of work participation in the phase-in range, although it doesn't seem to have much effect on average hours worked and doesn't do much to discourage work hours in the phase-out range. She writes (footnotes omitted): \"The official measure of poverty in the US does not include changes in resources due to taxes. If it did, scholars have determined that the EITC wouldhave been credited with lifting 6.5 million people out of poverty in 2012, including about 3.3 million children. Changes in income as a result of the EITC are associated with better health, more schooling and higher earnings in adulthood.\"\nOverall, I think one can make a plausible case for a dramatic increase in the amount spent on the EITC. But honesty compels me to point out that the EITC has two well-known shortcomings and problems that need to be mentioned.\nThe program is heavily focused on families with children. Thus, it doesn't help the situation of a childless person who is below the poverty line and working for near minimum-wage. EITC benefits are also lower for married couples. Any government program where the benefits are higher for those who are unmarried with children deserves a closer look to see if the incentives can be structured differently.\nThe EITC adds a lot of complexity to the tax forms of the working poor, who are often not well-positioned to cope with that complexity, nor to hire someone else to cope with it. About 20% of EITC payments go to those who don't actually qualify, which seems to happen because low-income people hand over their tax forms to paid tax preparers who try to get them signed up. Of course, there's another group, not well-measured as far as I know, of working-poor households who would be eligible for the EITC but don't know how to sign up for it.\nThese issues don't have neat and tidy answers, but they do have messy and practical answers.\nEven good intentions can have unexpectedly mixed results. Used clothing that is donated to charity in high-income countries often ends up being passed along to low-income countries. In turn, the textile and clothing industries in those countries often can't compete with these imports, and end up contracting. Andrew Brooks tells the story in his new book Clothing Poverty: The Hidden World of Fast Fashion and Second-hand Clothes. For those who would like a shorter version, Brooks has authors a couple of short and readable overview articles on March 20, 2015, in Geographical, and on February 13, 2015, in the Guardian.\nBasic statistics on exports of used clothing are available from US and UN sources. The US Department of Commerce website reports that in 2014, US exports of \"Worn clothing and other worn articles,\" item 6309.00, totaled 774 million kilograms in 2014, with a value of $710 million. The United Nations Comtrade data on \"Worn clothing and other worn textile articles; rags 269\" shows that worldwide exports in this area rose from $1.5 billion 2000 to $5.1 billion by 2013. As one would expect, a certain amount of this used clothing is moving between nearby high-income countries: say between the US and Canada, or between European Union countries. But a sizeable share also makes its way from high-income to low-income countries. Here are the UN numbers of main importers and exporters in the \"worn clothing\" category.\nThe main source of contention arises when clothing from high-income countries like the US and the UK ends up in low-income countries. A substantial amount of this used clothing ends up in the hands of companies like the Trans-Americas Trading Co., which buys clothing from charities and reports on its website: \"Approximately eight out of ten pounds of clothing collected by large charitable institutions are sold to recyclers in order to generate revenue for their charitable programs.\" Here are a couple of images from the Brooks posting on Geographical. The first shows what happens to some of the used clothes when given away in the US and the UK.\nBrooks reports that about one-third of all globally donated clothes end up in Africa, where most of them are not donated, but instead are re-sold. The next image shows some of the effects of this used clothing in various nations of sub-Saharan Africa.\nIn a number of African countries, the presence of used clothing has become so prominent in the markets that it has a local slang name. Here are a few examples, as reported by Brooks:\nNigeria: \"okirika\" (bend down boutique)...\n\"Ghana: \"obroni wawu\" (clothes of the dead white man)\"\nZambia: \"salaula\" (selecting from a bale by rummaging)\nCongo: \"sola\" (to choose)\nZimbabwe: \"mupedzanhamo\" (where all problems end)\nKenya & Tanzania: \"mitumba\" (bundles) or \"kafa ulaya\" (clothes of the dead whites)\nThere are some legitimate quandaries here. On one side, many of the charities in high-income countries that ask for donated clothing, and then end up selling that clothing to dealers like Trans-Americas Trading Co., are doing good things with the money they raise. Clothing that is passed along to others doesn't end up in a landfill someplace. It's quite plausible that those who wear end up wearing the donated clothing didn't have more cost-effective options. On the other side, there is some severe irony in this global trade in secondhand clothing.\nOne irony is that there was a history of high-income countries using trade barriers to limit imported clothing from low-income countries under the Multi-Fiber Agreement, which lasted from 1974-1994 and then was phased out over the following decade. The agreement was especially controversial among economists because textiles had been one of the early steps into manufacturing for high-income countries in the 19th century, and for a number of Asian economies in the mid-20th century. Having argued that it was important for high-income countries to protect their own textile markets, it is ironic to now face the reality that second-hand clothes from high-income countries are injuring textile production in low-income countries. Thus, one can have some sympathy with countries that essentially ban imports of worn clothing, including Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Namibia, and South Africa.\nOn the other side, the textile industry like so many others is dramatically shifting toward greater mechanization and use of industrial robots, even in low-income countries. Thus, it's not altogether clear that textiles offer the same path to a substantial number of jobs or a growing manufacturing sector that it once did. And it seems unlikely that textiles are going to be one of the hot new growth industries of the future. For low-income countries, looking for opportunities in other industries may well be the wiser long-term choice.\nIt might seem that the debate over e-cigarettes and \"vaping\" should be a fundamentally empirical question. Does vaping primarily reduce cigarette smoking? If so, then it should be viewed as an overall benefit to public health and, at a minimum, not discouraged. Or does vaping serve as a gateway that leads to increased cigarette smoking? If so, then it should be discouraged in many of the same ways as cigarette smoking: public health advisories, taxes, no-vaping in public spaces, and the like.\nBut interpreting the evidence isn't simple. For example, the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) put out a report on April 17, 2015, titled \"Tobacco Use Among Middle and High School Students \u2014 United States, 2011\u20132014.\" The first paragraph offers this statement: \"In 2014, e-cigarettes were the most commonly used tobacco product among middle (3.9%) and high (13.4%) school students. Between 2011 and 2014, statistically significant increases were observed among these students for current use of both e-cigarettes and hookahs (p<0.05), while decreases were observed for current use of more traditional products, such as cigarettes and cigars, resulting in no change in overall tobacco use.\" Some people see this shift from regular cigarettes to e-cigarettes as good news, because the health effects of e-cigarettes are lower (that is, they have nicotine, but none of the other by-products of smoking that are typically linked to cancer). Some see the rise in e-cigarettes as a threat to be stopped.\nAs the government regulators figure out what to do, it's important to remember that there is an industry lobbying powerhouse with a large incentive to restrict e-cigarettes: the big tobacco companies.

Morriss, and Bruce Yandle make this argument in \"Bootleggers, Baptists, and E-cigs,\" which appears in the Spring 2015 issue of Regulation magazine.\nA bootleggers-and-Baptists coalition refers to legal restrictions that arise from a combination of those who don't want the activity to occur and those who want to use the regulations to cripple potential competition. In the canonical example, both bootleggers and Baptists favored laws prohibiting legal alcohol sales--but for different reasons. Other common examples include when industry partners with environmentalists to support tough environmental regulations, which industry favors because it will cripple any new competition. In another example, existing examples of legal gambling--like state lotteries--often partnered with anti-gambling forces to oppose expanded gambling opportunities from Native American casinoes. Bruce Yandle and Adam Smith have a recent book out on the subject: Bootleggers and Baptists: How Economic Forces and Moral Persuasion Interact to Shape Regulatory Politics. Here's an interview with Yandle from a few years back.\nIn the case of e-cigarettes, the Adler, Meiners, Morriss, and Yandle essay points out that few years back, the four big tobacco companies (Philip Morris Inc., R. J. Reynolds, Brown & Williamson and Lorillard) signed an agreement in which they would pay $206 billion over time to 46 states, and in exchange, the states would not sue them for how smoking increased the health care spending costs of those states. Many anti-smoking groups broadly favored the settlement, because worked like a tax on cigarettes to push tobacco companies to raise their prices to consumers and thus discourage smoking.\nBut the big tobacco companies were concerned that new entrants to the industry might be able to undercut them on price, because new entrants would not have to make these payments to the states. As the Adler et al. group explains: \"Therefore the MSA [Master Settlement Agreement] provided that for every percent of market share over 2 percent lost by a participating cigarette manufacturer, the manufacturer would be allowed to reduce its payments to the states by 3 percent, unless each participating state enacted a statute to prevent price competition from non-participating manufacturers (which each state did). The statutes require nonparticipating cigarette producers to make payments equal to or greater than what they would owe had they been participants in the agreement, to eliminate any cost advantage.\"\nIn short, the political process over how e-cigarettes should be regulated is not a pure public health argument. E-cigs represent a competitive threat to the tobacco industry, which will lobby to have have them regulated at least as harshly as conventional cigarettes, although the health issue posed by e-cigs (which, by the way, can contain little or no nicotine if the vaper desires) is clearly much lower. States will be worried that this new competition from vaping might in some way affect their revenues they are expecting from the tobacco companies. A certain group of anti-smoking neo-prohibitionists has pretty much already decided to view vaping as an insidious precursor to conventional cigarettes.\nAs I have pointed out, the anti-smoking efforts that began with the US Surgeon General's report back in 1964 have saved millions of lives, but even though smoking rates have diminished, tobacco use is still linked to 400,000 premature deaths and another $300 billion in economic costs due to health care costs and lost productivity each year. Perhaps e-cigs can help to reduce these costs. The evidence on how e-cigarettes interact with use of conventional cigarettes is still accumulating, but before we run with the assumption that e-cigs are part of the same problem, it's worth some critical scrutiny on the bootlegger-and-Baptist coalition that is pushing for this result.\nJohn Stuart Mill's Birthday: Thoughts on Conformity and Individualism\nJohn Stuart Mill was born 209 years ago on May 20, 1806, and has a claim to being the greatest economist of his time. His Principles of Political Economy, first published in 1848, served as the leading overview of the subject of economics four four decades, until Alfred Marshall published his Principles of Economics in 1890. Mill's 1848 book is wonderfully systematic and detailed, and has its share of original insights for its time. Some of my own favorites include the idea that it is possible to separate for analytical purposes the issues of production and distribution; the systematic treatment of supply and demand in setting prices; the discussion of the function of money; and the arguments about the economy evolving toward a stationary state. However, I think Mill may rank higher as a political philosopher than as an economist.\nAs a birthday present, here's a passage from Mill's 1859 classic On Liberty. In \"Chapter III: Of Individuality, as One of the Elements of Well-Being,\" Mill argues that while there was once a time when society needed to control the individuality of people, we have now entered a time when people instead have an urge for conformity. Mill wrote about the practices of most people:\n\"I do not mean that they choose what is customary, in preference to what suits their own inclination. It does not occur to them to have any inclination, except for what is customary. Thus the mind itself is bowed to the yoke: even in what people do for pleasure, conformity is the first thing thought of; they like in crowds; they exercise choice only among things commonly done: peculiarity of taste, eccentricity of conduct, are shunned equally with crimes: until by dint of not following their own nature, they have no nature to follow: their human capacities are withered and starved: they become incapable of any strong wishes or native pleasures, and are generally without either opinions or feelings of home growth, or properly their own. ...\"\nEven worse than bowing to such conformity, Mill argues, people then demand that others conform as well. We first conform to the crowd, and then pressure others to conform as well, instead of leaving each person to steer their own way. In one of my favorite lines in the Mill corpus, he writes:\n\"If a person possesses any tolerable amount of common sense and experience, his own mode of laying out his existence is the best, not because it is the best in itself, but because it is his own mode.\"\nMy own sense is that most people, definitely including myself, find it easy to think about what would be \"best\" for other people, and to undervalue what other people choose for themselves. Or to put it another way, all the choices I agree with are (of course) distinctively individual, while all the choices I disagree with are (of course) people who could do better if they didn't keep giving in to the forces of conformity and custom within their group. Here's the longer version of the paragraphs containing these passages:\n\"There has been a time when the element of spontaneity and individuality was in excess, and the social principle had a hard struggle with it. The difficulty then was, to induce men of strong bodies or minds to pay obedience to any rules which required them to control their impulses. To overcome this difficulty, law and discipline, like the Popes struggling against the Emperors, asserted a power over the whole man, claiming to control all his life in order to control his character\u2014which society had not found any other sufficient means of binding. But society has now fairly got the better of individuality; and the danger which threatens human nature is not the excess, but the deficiency, of personal impulses and preferences. Things are vastly changed, since the passions of those who were strong by station or by personal endowment were in a state of habitual rebellion against laws and ordinances, and required to be rigorously chained up to enable the persons within their reach to enjoy any particle of security. In our times, from the highest class of society down to the lowest, every one lives as under the eye of a hostile and dreaded censorship. Not only in what concerns others, but in what concerns only themselves, the individual or the family do not ask themselves\u2014what do I prefer? or, what would suit my character and disposition? or, what would allow the best and highest in me to have fair play, and enable it to grow and thrive? They ask themselves, what is suitable to my position? what is usually done by persons of my station and pecuniary circumstances? or (worse still) what is usually done by persons of a station and circumstances superior to mine? I do not mean that they choose what is customary, in preference to what suits their own inclination. It does not occur to them to have any inclination, except for what is customary. Thus the mind itself is bowed to the yoke: even in what people do for pleasure, conformity is the first thing thought of; they like in crowds; they exercise choice only among things commonly done: peculiarity of taste, eccentricity of conduct, are shunned equally with crimes: until by dint of not following their own nature, they have no nature to follow: their human capacities are withered and starved: they become incapable of any strong wishes or native pleasures, and are generally without either opinions or feelings of home growth, or properly their own. ...\nThere is no reason that all human existence should be constructed on some one or some small number of patterns. If a person possesses any tolerable amount of common sense and experience, his own mode of laying out his existence is the best, not because it is the best in itself, but because it is his own mode. Human beings are not like sheep; and even sheep are not undistinguishably alike. A man cannot get a coat or a pair of boots to fit him, unless they are either made to his measure, or he has a whole warehouseful to choose from: and is it easier to fit him with a life than with a coat, or are human beings more like one another in their whole physical and spiritual conformation than in the shape of their feet? If it were only that people have diversities of taste, that is reason enough for not attempting to shape them all after one model. But different persons also require different conditions for their spiritual development; and can no more exist healthily in the same moral, than all the variety of plants can in the same physical, atmosphere and climate. The same things which are helps to one person towards the cultivation of his higher nature, are hindrances to another. The same mode of life is a healthy excitement to one, keeping all his faculties of action and enjoyment in their best order, while to another it is a distracting burthen, which suspends or crushes all internal life. Such are the differences among human beings in their sources of pleasure, their susceptibilities of pain, and the operation on them of different physical and moral agencies, that unless there is a corresponding diversity in their modes of life, they neither obtain their fair share of happiness, nor grow up to the mental, moral, and aesthetic stature of which their nature is capable. Why then should tolerance, as far as the public sentiment is concerned, extend only to tastes and modes of life which extort acquiescence by the multitude of their adherents? Nowhere (except in some monastic institutions) is diversity of taste entirely unrecognised; a person may, without blame, either like or dislike rowing, or smoking, or music, or athletic exercises, or chess, or cards, or study, because both those who like each of these things, and those who dislike them, are too numerous to be put down. But the man, and still more the woman, who can be accused either of doing \"what nobody does,\" or of not doing \"what everybody does,\" is the subject of as much depreciatory remark as if he or she had committed some grave moral delinquency. ...\nIf the claims of Individuality are ever to be asserted, the time is now, while much is still wanting to complete the enforced assimilation. It is only in the earlier stages that any stand can be successfully made against the encroachment. The demand that all other people shall resemble ourselves, grows by what it feeds on.\nPerhaps the good news here is that Mill's comments still read as timely today, which suggests that perhaps this balance between conformity and individualism is not decided once and for all, but is an ongoing challenge for each of us to accept, both in having the willingness and energy to make our own choices, and in the level of tolerance and acceptance we offer as a society to those who (peacefully) choose not to conform with our own decisions.\n\"A large volume of high-quality research shows that unhealthy children grow up to be unhealthy adults, that poor health and low income go hand in hand, and that the consequences of both poverty and poor health make large demands on public coffers. Thus promoting children\u2019s health is essential for improving the population\u2019s health; policies to prevent children\u2019s health problems can be wise investments; and policy makers should implement carefully designed policies and programs to promote child health.\" Thus say Janet Currie and Nancy Reichman in their introductory essay to the Spring 2015 issue of Future of Childen, which features eight other articles on the theme of \"Policies to Promote Child Health.\"\nSara Rosenbaum and Robert Blum lead off with an essay, \"How Healthy Are Our Children?\" Here's a thought-provoking table of the main causes of child mortality in the US a century ago, as compared with today. The entries of the table for a century ago help to define some past successes, while the entries for the present point to current challenges.\nAn overall shift seems clear. Infectious diseases are down. Injuries, homicide and suicide have taken their place near the top of the list. These conditions help to make clear that the modern health problems of American children are mostly about broader conditions of health and safety, which in turn are often correlated with family income and measures of socioeconomic status. The chapter in the Future of Children issue summarize the evidence that does exist about factors that are correlated with child health. Here's a sampling from Rosenbaum and Blum write (footnotes omitted):\nSpecifically, we have come to understand that many disease conditions\u2014and especially noncommunicable conditions\u2014 result from interactions between individuals and their environments. ... In the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACES), researchers showed an association between child abuse and being reared in dysfunctional households, on the one hand, and later adult health, on the other. Since then, research has documented strong associations between adverse childhood experiences and adult cancers, sexually transmitted infections, ischemic heart disease, and hepatitis. In fact, children who have adverse childhood experiences show a risk of subsequent disease approximately two to four times as high as children who did not have such experiences. Researchers define adverse childhood experiences to include psychological/ physical/ sexual abuse, exposure to substance abuse, mental illness, exposure to maternal violence, and exposure to parental criminal behavior. In their research sample, drawn from a large HMO in Southern California, ACES researchers found that one in four adults reported two or more such experiences, while 11 percent of those 50 years of age or older reported four or more. For adults of any income level, early adverse childhood experiences have profound effects. Poverty not only increases the risk of having such experiences, but also reduces the availability of protective factors (for example, nurturing adults) that can buffer the impact of exposure. Exposure to social toxins in childhood alters the developing brain and can have adult consequences. Today we understand that brain development extends well into the third decade. Exposure to toxic environments \u2014 what researchers call toxic stress\u2014 alters brain architecture in developing children by chronically increasing cortisol, a stress hormone; this, in turn, reduces brain development, producing a less complex brain scaffolding. The result is reduced capacity for reasoning, stress reactivity, decision making, and learning. ...\nToday, the primary health problems that children and youth face are noncommunicable conditions that not only adversely affect health and development but also act as precursors of noncommunicable disease in adults. These conditions arise from both lifestyle behaviors and the social environments in which our most vulnerable children live. ... The neighborhood in which a child is born and grows up can have an important impact on the risk of illness or death, as well as life expectancy. Neighborhoods are highly correlated with both family income and a host of environmental exposures (for example, violence, unsanitary conditions, environmental and social toxins). One important factor is residential segregation, which continues to be pervasive in American life. ...\nElsewhere in this issue, Maya Rossin-Slater demonstrates substantial disparities in birth outcomes by maternal education, which is a commonly used measure of socioeconomic status. Using data from the 2012 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) to look at marker childhood health conditions associated with lower income and adverse community health conditions, we can also see an association between the incidence of poorer health and populations at heightened risk of poverty and deprivation, including members of racial and ethnic minorities\u2014particularly non-Hispanic blacks. ... There was a strong and positive correlation between parental income and children\u2019s positive assessment of their health; while nearly 90 percent of children at the highest income levels reported excellent health, only 46 percent of those living in poverty did so. ... Two researchers recently presented nationally representative statistics from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey that connect indicators of poor child health to household income. Obesity, hypertension, diabetes, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL, known as \u201cgood cholesterol\u201d), and high cholesterol ratio were measured through physical examinations and/or laboratory reports. Their figures indicate clear income gradients in children\u2019s health across all measures other than diabetes. ...\nOf course, access to health insurance remains important. Several recent research studies have used administrative evidence on access to Medicaid over time to see if children from low-income families who had access to Medicaid are different in adulthood from children who didn't have access to Medicaid. For example there was a large expansion in Medicaid coverage that applied only to children born after September 30, 1983. Thus, one can reasonably compare children from low-income families born just before this cutoff date to those born just after, and it turn out that the children from low-income families who had more access to Medicaid turn out to have fewer emergency-room visit and lower hospitalizations rates as adults. Another study looked compared children from low-income families who lived in certain states and certain time periods where the eligibility rules made them less likely to get Medicaid coverage to similar children from low-income families who lived in states and during time periods where Medicaid coverage was more like. (Medicaid rules and eligibility vary in meaningful ways across states and over time.) They found that tax payments are higher in the future for those who had Medicaid coverage, and conclude that \"the [federal] government will recoup 56 cents of each dollar spent on childhood Medicaid by the time these children reach age 60.\"\nOverall, the state of this debate seems to be that there are lots of studies showing factors that are correlated with greater risks to childhood health, and there are a growing number of studies showing the long-term benefits from taking steps to reduce these risk factors. But these studies haven't really been pulled together to form a cohesive whole, or to have a sense of what the top public priorities should be. Currie and Reichman write in their introduction: \"We suspect that, for many dimensions of child health, an ounce of prevention would be worth a pound of cure, but it\u2019s difficult to prove this without hard evidence on the costs and benefits of different approaches.\"\nBitcoin: A Remarkable Innovation and Its Limitations\nMy own sense is that popular interest in Bitcoin peaked about 12-18 months ago. Perhaps that interest will return. But for now, my sense is that Bitcoin represents a remarkable--indeed, a breakthrough--innovation which nonetheless is beginning to show its limitations. Rainer B\u00f6hme, Nicolas Christin, Benjamin Edelman, and Tyler Moore provide an overview of \"Bitcoin: Economics, Technology, and Governance\" in the Spring 2015 issue of the Journal of Economic Perspectives (29:2, pp. 213-38). (Full disclosure: My actual job, as opposed to my blogging hobby, has been to work as Managing Editor of the JEP since the first issue in 1987.) The conclusions in this post are my own, but many of the facts will draw on the B\u00f6hme, Christin, Edelman, and Moore essay.\nBroadly speaking, money operates on a bookkeeping system: that is, private parties can't just claim to have money, but instead must have it transferred from another account into your own account. With traditional money, these accounts can be verified by banks, financial institutions, and regulators, and the central bank reserves to itself the power to create money.\nThe remarkable innovation of Bitcoin is that it has created a currency that is automated and private, with no need for a central bank or regulatory system. A total of about 14 million Bitcoins have been created, with a US dollar value of about $3.5 billion. They have been used in about 62 million transactions. Anyone who signs up a Bitcoin account is given a \"public\" number, which is your account number to the system as a whole, and also a \"private\" number, which is your personal passcode for accessing the system.\nThe heart of Bitcoin is the \"blockchain,\" which is a complete listing of every Bitcoin ever issued and all the transactions that have happened with each. Everyone with a Bitcoin account can look at the blockchain if they wish--but it's such an enormous file (and getting larger with each transaction) that most people could not download it to their personal computer even if they wanted to. So most people using Bitcoin hire a \"wallet\" company which holds your copy of the blockchain, and through which you can operate your account. Some wallet companies know your \"private\" number; some don't.\nWith traditional money, a transaction is verified by financial institutions operating in a regulatory framework. For Bitcoin, a transaction is verified when the blockchain is updated. But this is where the process gets a little messy and very creative. Someone needs to be paid for updating the blockchain, and of course, they can be paid in Bitcoins for doing so. To ensure trustworthiness, we actually want to have multiple actors all updating the blockchain at the same time, so that they can serve as a check on each other. And we need those actors updating the blockchain to pay some cost, because if there was no cost to participate, random players could claim to have received Bitcoins from others.\nEvery 10 minutes or so, the recent Bitcoin transactions are grouped into a \"block.\" The Bitcoin automated system generates a mathematical puzzle based on the preexisting contents of the blockchain. The puzzle is not fundamentally hard to solve, but it includes a random component and takes a lot of computing power. In other words, those with faster computers will have a better chance of solving the puzzle, but because of the randomness, speed doesn't always win. The first to solve the puzzle posts a new blockchain, along with a proof-of-work that the puzzle was solved. Those who solve puzzles are called \"miners,\" and again, they are rewarded with Bitcoin in a way that expands the quantity of currency at a smooth pace over time. B\u00f6hme, Christin, Edelman, and Moore estimate that in solving the Bitcoin puzzles, Bitcoin miners use about 173 megawatts of electricity at any given time, which is about 20% of the output of a nuclear power plant.\nBut remember that many miners are working simultaneously on blockchain puzzles. It may happen that as later miners complete their work, they confirm the blockchain addition made by the first miner. In other cases, later miners will provide a different form of the blockchain. In effect, the miners \"vote\" for the correct form of the blockchain, and the number of \"votes\" is determined by the quantity of computing power needed to solve the puzzles. A Bitcoin transaction is not truly final until it has been definitively added to the blockchain, which means that it needs to be confirmed by the process of multiple miners solving puzzles, which in practice can often take about a hour. The authors write:\nBut voting on the authenticity of a transaction requires first working to solve a mathematical puzzle that is computationally hard to solve (although easy to verify). Solving the puzzle provides \u201cproof of work\u201d; in lieu of \u201cone person, one vote,\u201d Bitcoin thus implements the principle of \u201cone computational cycle, one vote.\u201d Through this design, the proof-of-work mechanism simultaneously discourages creating numerous fake identities and also provides incentives to participate in verifying the block chain.\nIt is worth emphasizing the remarkable accomplishment of the Bitcoin system. It functions! However, as this brief description has hinted in various places, Bitcoin has limitations that have begun to emerge. Here are some of the main ones.\n1) Bitcoin isn't anonymous: it's pseudonymous. For example, say that you use a Bitcoin account to mail-order something for delivery to your home. Now there is a connection between your Bitcoin account and your address, and any other transactions through your account can be traced to you. There are Bitcoin-based companies called \"mixers\" that try to make transactions more anonymous. They take a batch of Bitcoin transactions and scramble up who is receiving what from whom. But it turns out that their scrambling can often be unscrambled, if law enforcement wants to commit the resources to doing it.\n2) The dollar-Bitcoin exchange rate can move abruptly, which makes Bitcoin less suitable as a transaction currency. The price of Bitcoin spiked enormously in late 1013, going from about $200 per Bitcoin to almost $1,200 per Bitcoin, before then falling back. A currency that fluctuates this wildly ends up looking less like a mechanism for buying and selling, and more like a financial investment with risky characteristics. Indeed, a study a couple of years ago found that more than half of existing Bitcoins either took more than a year to be spent or had not been spent.\n3) It's not clear how the Bitcoin technology would function for widespread everyday uses. As noted above, finalizing a Bitcoin transaction--as miners solve mathematical puzzles and work toward a definitive update of the blockchain-- takes about a hour to be finalized. If Bitcoin had to deal with even a modest fraction of the number of transactions commonly handled by, say, Visa or American Express, the system would be overwhelmed by the number of transactions and unable to function.\n4) Bitcoin itself operates remarkably well, but most people use Bitcoin through a number of platforms that are vulnerable to fraud and cyberattack. For example, there are currency exchange platforms that switch Bitcoin to conventional currencies. There are \"digital wallet services\" that host your Bitcoin account and your personal copy of the blockchain, and that many people use for making Bitcoin transactions. There are the \"mixers\" I mentioned above, which take a batch of Bitcoin transactions and scramble them together, to increase the anonymity of the transactions. These platforms are vulnerable to cyberattack and fraud, and when you pay these platforms, you are revealing that you are linked to the Bitcoin currency, thus compromising your anonymity to some degree.\nIn short, dealing with Bitcoin is full of risks and costs. It may be worthwhile for some large purchases under particular circumstances, but at least as Bitcoin is currently constituted, it seems unlikely to become a truly large-scale force in modern finance. So what's next?\nOne vision is that other forms of virtual money will follow where Bitcoin has already broken the trail and this is already happening in various ways. I'm sure that some of these will have niche success, but I would be surprised if they have more. As virtual currencies become larger, governments will insist on increased disclosure and degrees of regulation. As governments requirements rise, the advantages of virtual currencies will diminish.\nAnother vision is that the main use of Bitcoin-like technology may not be in the area of money, but in transferring other pieces of digital property. The JEP authors quote an earlier article by Mark Andreeson, a coauthor of the Mosaic browser:\nBitcoin gives us, for the first time, a way for one Internet user to transfer a unique piece of digital property to another Internet user, such that the transfer is guaranteed to be safe and secure, everyone knows that the transfer has taken place, and nobody can challenge the legitimacy of the transfer. . . . All these are exchanged through a distributed network of trust that does not require or rely upon a central intermediary like a bank or broker. What kinds of digital property might be transferred in this way? Think about digital signatures, digital contracts, digital keys (to physical locks, or to online lockers), digital ownership of physical assets such as cars and houses, digital stocks and bonds . . . and digital money.\nThose who would like some additional reading about the economics of Bitcoin might begin with the discussion and articles cited in my post \"How Does Bitcoin Work?\" (September 24, 2014).\nAndrew B. Bernard and Teresa C. Fort sketch what is known about the \"Factoryless Goods Producing Firm\" in the May 2015 issue of the American Economic Review: Papers and Proceedings (vol. 105:5, pp. 518-523). The AER is not freely available on-line, but many readers will have access through a library subscription. Succumbing to acronyms, Bernard and Fort write: \"We define a FGPF as a firm that has no manufacturing establishments in the United States, but performs pre-production\nactivities such as design and engineering itself and is involved in production activities, either directly or through purchases of contract manufacturing services (CMS).\"\nWant examples? Here are three:\nPerhaps the canonical example of a factoryless goods producer is the British appliance firm, Dyson, best known for its innovative vacuum cleaners. The firm initially designed, engineered, and produced vacuum cleaners in Wiltshire, England but subsequently chose to offshore and outsource all the production to Malaysia while leaving several hundred research and other employees in the United Kingdom. Dyson\u2019s more recent innovations in product lines such as hand dryers and fans have never been produced in the United Kingdom or by Dyson itself.\nThe best-known example of a factoryless goods producer is Apple Inc. Apple designs, engineers, develops, and sells consumer electronics, software, and computers. For the vast majority of its products, including iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks, Apple does none of the production and the actual manufacturing is performed by other firms in China and elsewhere. While Apple is known for its goods and services and closely controls all aspects of a product, almost none of Apple\u2019s US establishments would be in the manufacturing sector.\nThe semiconductor industry is well-known to have factoryless goods producers in the form of \u201cfabless\u201d firms. Mindspeed Technologies, a fabless semiconductor manufacturer in Newport Beach, CA \u201cdesigns, develops, and sells semiconductor solutions for communications applications in wireline and wireless network infrastructure equipment.\u201d Mindspeed outsources all semiconductor manufacturing to other merchant foundries, such as TSMC, Samsung, and others. Mindspeed\u2019s establishments would not be in the manufacturing sector.\nHow prominent are factoryless goods producing firms in the US economy, and how much have they expanded over time? By definition, you don't find these firms in the manufacturing sector of the economy. Bernard and Fort look at stastistics on the wholesale trade sector of the economy. As background, wholesale trade is about 6% of the US GDP when measured in value-added terms. which is about half the size of the manufacturing sector, or half the size of the professional and business services sector. Here are a few facts from Barnard and Fort ahout factoryless goods producing firms:\nIn 2007, the total number of factoryless good producing firms was 13,500, and these firms employed 672,000 workers. \"\nIndustries where factoryless goods producing firms tend to focus include electrical machinery and equipment, machine and mechanical appliances and computers, pharmaceuticals, and apparel.\nCompared to other firms in the wholesale industry, the factoryless goods producing firms tend to be larger and to pay higher wages.\nIf you go back to 1992, and look at the factoryless goods producing firms of that time, you find that many of them begin manufacturing in the US at some poitn. Indeed, \"it is likely that the current set of FGPFs are a mix of different types of firms including former manufacturing firms, new firms created as FGPFs from their inception, and other firms that have made the transition to the design and manufacture of products. More work is needed to understand the evolution of FGPFs over time.\"\nThe imports of factoryless goods producing firms are equal to about 38% of their total sales. Thus, a majority of money spent at such firms ends up flowing to non-manufacturing inputs from the US economy.\nThe growth of factoryless goods producing firms may have effects on wages, employment, and productivity. It's a phenomenon worth understanding.\nFull disclosure: The AER is published by the American Economic Association, which also publishes the Journal of Economic Perspectives, where I work as Managing Editor.\nMaybe this is the kind of factoid that is only of interest to me, but the US Bureau of the Census calculates the \"mean center of population for the United States\"--that is, if you average the locations where everyone lives in the US, what's the average location?\nBack in 1790, the average location of the population was near Washington, DC. Unsurprisingly, over time the center of the population moved west, as additional western states were added.\nI found myself mildly surprised by three factors about the movement of the average location of an American in the last couple of centuries.\n1) I'm surprised that the center of the US population was already in Maryland in 1790. I would have thought that with a substantial share of the population in Philadelphia and New York, as well as Boston and New England, that the central location in 1790would have been further north.\n2) I'm surprised that the movement has continued at such a steady pace in recent decades.\n3) I'm surprised that the average location of the population has reached the middle of Missouri, apparently headed for Oklahoma in another couple of decades.\nThe total number of migrants working in other countries worldwide is now approaching 250 million. Many of them send money home, and remittances are on their way to becoming an important part of the global financial system. The World Bank Migration and Remittances Team, Development Prospects Group, offers an overview in its Migration and Development Brief of April 13, 2015.\nHere's a pattern showing the rise in remittances over time compared to some other international financial flows. Back in 1990, international remittances were lower than official development assistance (ODA). Flows of foreign direct investment (FDI) to developing countries were also smaller than ODA, as were flows of private debt and portfolio equity to developing countries. (The FDI flows to developing countries show here exclude China.) Remittances have been larger than development assistance for some years now, and the gap is growing. Perhaps more surprising, remittances also outstripped debt and portfolio equity flows to developing countries in recent years. The flows of remittances also look quite stable compared to other private-sector capital flows.\nAs one might expect, the amount of remittances will be biggest for some of the larger economies in the developing world, but expressed as a share of GDP, the amount of remittances will be largest for some smaller economies.\nRemittances are important for their sheer size, and because they offer a way for extended households and kinship networks in low-income countries to help themselves in a direct way. They are also goign to be a subject of policy.\nFor example, the World Bank estimates that at present, transferring $200 to a recipient country on average incurs a fee of about 8%. It seems plausible that technology and the growth of these markets should be able to reduce this cost substantially. If the cost of transfers could be cut to 3%, OECD estimates that it would benefit the recipients of these remittances by $20 billion per year. The key question here is that making international flows of capital cheaper and easier comes into conflict with the policy agenda of avoiding money-laundering and cutting off financial assistance to terrorist groups.\nAnother possibility is that low-income countries will issue bonds in their own currencies, hoping to attract investment from those with remittances to send. The World Bank researchers explain: \"A diaspora bond \u2013 a low denomination security with a face value of $1,000, say, carrying a 3-4% interest rate and 5-year maturity \u2013 issued by a country of origin could be attractive to migrant workers who currently earn near-zero interest on deposits held in host-country banks. Diaspora bonds could be used to mobilize a fraction \u2013 say, one-tenth \u2013 of the annual diaspora saving, that is, over $50 billion, for financing development projects.\" India and Israel have already taken steps along these lines, but many low-income countries around the world could give it a try.\nA more complex step is to use the expected inflow of future remittances as collateral, in what is known a \"future-flow securitization of remittances\"--which can then lead to lower borrowing costs or longer borrowing terms for governments of developing countries.\nFor a more detailed overview of the economics of this subject, I recommend Dean Yang's article on \"Migrant Remittances\" in the Spring 2011 issue of the Journal of Economic Perspectives. (Full disclosure: I've labored in the fields as Managing Editor of JEP since the first issue in 1987.)\nSay that you are someone who believes strongly that human-driven emissions of carbon and other greenhouse gases are leading to substantial climate change. You believe that the world probably needed to start acting aggressively to confront this issue back in 1992 when the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change was announced, and certainly after the Kyoto Protocol was signed in 1997 and went into force in 2005. You are deeply worried that the world may have already blown past a number of warning signs about climate change, and that time for taking meaningful action has become uncomfortably slim. If you are that person, you need to be thinking seriously about geoengineering--that is, taking steps to deliberately alter the earth's climate to counteract the effects of climate change.\nGernot Wagner and Martin L . Weitzman go through the arguments in \"Climate Shock,\" an article in the Milken Institute Review (2015, Second Quarter, pp. 55-69). The article is based on a chapter of their just-published book Climate Shock: The Economic Consequences of a Warmer Planet. Here's a sample:\nWe may hate the idea of countering amazing amounts of pollution with yet more pollution of a different type. But the option is simply too cheap to ignore. It\u2019s not like anyone would literally mimic Mount Pinatubo by pumping 20 million tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere. At the very least, given current technology and knowledge, the sulfur would likely be delivered in the form of sulfuric acid vapor. Sooner rather than later, we may be looking at particles specifically engineered to reflect as much solar radiation back into space as possible, maximizing the leverage.\nIt may only take a fleet of a few dozen planes flying 24/7 to deliver the desired amount. Some have gone as far as to calculate how many Gulfstream G650 jets it would take to haul the necessary materials. But such specifics are indeed too specific. What matters is that the total costs would apparently be low compared to both the damage carbon dioxide causes and the cost of avoiding that damage by reducing carbon emissions.\nEstimates are all over the place, but most put the direct engineering costs of getting temperatures back down to pre-industrial levels on the order of $1-to-$10 billion a year. Now, $1-to-$10 billion is not nothing, but it\u2019s well within the reach of many countries and maybe even the odd billionaire. If a ton of carbon dioxide emitted today generates $40 in damage, we are talking fractions of a penny for the sulfur to offset it. ...\nGeoengineering is too cheap to dismiss as a fringe strategy developed by sinister scientists looking for attention and grant money, as some pundits would have it. If anything, it\u2019s the most experienced climate scientists who take the issue most seriously. And not because they want to. ...Pick your favorite analogy. It\u2019s like chemotherapy or a tracheostomy for the planet: a last-ditch effort to do what prevention failed to accomplish. ... As always, it\u2019s a matter of trade-offs. Climate change itself will have plenty of unsavory side effects. The question, then, is not whether geoengineering alone could wreak havoc. (It could.) The question is whether climate change plus geoengineering is better or worse than unmitigated climate change.\nWagner and Weitzman go on to discuss a variety of possible methods of geoengineering:\nputting sulfur particles in the atmosphere; ships that spray water vapor high into the sky to generate more cloud cover; painting all roofs a more reflective white; dumping plant nutrients (like iron) into the ocean so that the resulting plants will absorb more carbon; and others.\nFor myself, I'm uncomfortably aware that I don't know much about the details of climate modelling. It does seems clear that a healthy majority of those who work in the area and are represented in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports are concerned about the risks of climate change, so from an economic viewpoint, my usual attitude is to treat the risk as real and imporant--but focus on the economic problem of how to reduce those risks in cost-effective ways. For some earlier posts bearing on these issues, see \"Climate Change Strategies (Including Mangroves)\" (December 4, 2012), \"Setting a Carbon Price: What's Known, What's Not\" (June 25, 2013), \"Short-Term Benefits of Climate Change Policy\" (September 22, 2014), \"Carbon Capture and Storage: An Update\" (December 24, 2013), \"Other Air Pollutants: Soot and Methane\" (June 28, 2012), and \"Should the U.S. Government Cost-Benefit Analysis Look Outside the U.S.?\" (June 13, 2014).\nIn my reading, even though the most recent IPCC report comes out with largely the same bottom line--that climate change is a serious problem needing a substantial policy response in both the near-term and the long-term--the most recent report makes the arguments in a tone of less certainty than earlier reports. As one example, the most recent IPCC report has a highlighted discussion in a box in the first chapter acknowledging that temperature trends rise 1998 to 2012 was much less steep than the earlier trend, and less than predicted (see Box 1.1 on p. 43 of the report). The report discusses various reasons why this might have occurred, with an emphasis that additional research is needed here: for example, one possibility is that volcanoes put more sulfur into the air than expected, a form of natural geoengineering that had a cooling effect; that El Nino warmed up the globe above trend in late 1990s, making the temperature rise in the 1990s look unexpectedly rapid, and the rise since then correspondingly slower; or that oceans trapped more heat than the models had predicted.\nFor me, the risks of any actual efforts at geoengineering seem too high at present. But of course, this is another way of saying that I think the risks of climate change are not immediate or severe enough to be worth the risks of geoengineering. But as I noted at the start, if you believe that the risks of climate change are large and near-term--and moreover, if you have observed how difficult it seems to be for the world to take action to reduce carbon emissions substantially--then you should be looking at geoengineering very closely, even you hate the idea of needing to do so.",

        "raw_content": "Moody Blues Add North American Tour Dates\nThe Moody Blues just kicked off their 2013 fall tour, but they've already got their eye on concerts of future passed -- in fact, they're already adding dates for 2014.\n\"We're gettin' around,\" guitarist and singer Justin Hayward told ABC News Radio. Asked which dates he's particularly looking forward to, he admitted that he's excited about playing the West Coast, \"'cause I don't think we've been that way for a while.\"\nAs far as Hayward is concerned, a big part of the band's recent live success has to do with the consistency of its core trio. As he told ABC, \"I think this incarnation of The Moody Blues is certainly the happiest and the most enjoyable that me, [drummer] Graeme [Edge] and [singer-bassist] John [Lodge] have ever been part of.\"\nWhen Hayward spoke with UCR in 2013, he shared his enthusiasm for the live setting, saying it gave the band a chance to explore songs they \"only ever played for a couple of days\" when they were originally recorded. Saying the band has been \"rediscovering\" its catalog, he explained, \"You just forget about these songs, but the fans never forget about them.\"\nFans can expect more of that experimentation on the current tour. As Hayward told ABC, \"We're doing a couple of songs that we haven't done. We're doing a few different things and swapping around songs every night, so that's quite interesting.\"\nNext: Top 10 Moody Blues Songs\nMoody Blues 2013-14 Tour Dates\n10/01 - Wabash, Ind.\n10/02 - Elkhart, Ind.\n10/03 - Milwaukee, Wis.\n10/05 - Hammond, Ind.\n10/07 - Peoria, Ill.\n10/08 - Appleton, Wis.\n10/09 - Des Moines, Iowa\n10/11 - Onamia, Minn.\n10/12 - Bismarck, N.D.\n10/14 - Kansas City, Mo.\n10/15 - Park City, Kan.\n10/16 - Denver, Colo.\n10/18 - Airway Heights, Wash.\n10/19 - Seattle, Wash.\n10/21 - Portland, Ore.\n10/22 - Eugene, Ore.\n10/24 - San Rafael, Calif.\n10/25 - San Francisco, Calif.\n10/26 - Reno, Nev.\n10/27 - San Jose, Calif.\n10/29 - Paso Robles, Calif.\n10/30 - San Diego, Calif.\n11/01 - Los Angeles, Calif.\n11/02 - Rancho Mirage, Calif.\n3/05/14 - Morristown, N.J.\n3/07/14 - Red Bank, N.J.\nSource: Moody Blues Add North American Tour Dates\nFiled Under: The Moody Blues",

Prompt reporting is critical, and all reports will be followed up swiftly by the ACP. In doing so, the ACP will strive to keep the identity of the individual making the report as confidential as possible.\nThe ACP prohibits any threats or acts of retaliation against individuals who report unacceptable behaviour or provide information in connection with a report by another individual. The ACP considers a threat or act of retaliation to be as serious an offence as harassment itself and will handle reports of retaliation accordingly.\nAny individual who feels has been falsely or unfairly accused of violating this Policy Against Harassment at ACP Activities, should notify ec@a4cp.org with a concise description of the grievance, which will also be followed up swiftly.\nWarnings and Disclaimers\nThis Policy Against Harassment at ACP Activities is not intended to limit open discussion of the merits of particular work or issues presented at ACP events. It applies only to behaviour at ACP events and activities.\nThe ACP assumes no liability or responsibility for the actions of any member or other activity participant.\nThe ACP is not responsible for protecting the safety of members or participants in ACP activities. Any individual who feels his/her safety is at risk due to harassment or for any other reason is encouraged to take appropriate steps to ensure personal safety.\nThere may be situations (such as those involving Title IX issues in the United States and venue- or employer-specific policies) where an on-site person who is informed of harassment will be under an obligation to file a report with an individual or organisation outside of the ACP.",

Wish I could show you that, but you'll have to settle for two of her Americana quilts instead.\nThe first one was a panel with some scenes from George Washington's time--at least I think it was supposed to be George.\nThe panel was really simple, but with that gold in it I had to add some gold quilting; therefore, you get gold feathers. I also used my swag template for the borders--tried to make them look old fashioned.\nAnd a picture of the back! I love plain backs; the quilting really shows up.\nThis one is more traditional with some pieced blocks as well as patriotic panels.\nA close-up of one of the traditionally-pieced blocks...\nAnd this is the smaller \"panel\" that I quilted a traditional feather pattern on. I was initially going to try to do something more intricate, but after pondering and talking with Paula, we decided a feather was the way to go. What do you think?\nAnd finally, a couple of shots of the back. First the entire back.\nAnd a close-up of a small section.\nThanks for stopping by!

        "title": "The Suffering Saint of Gospel: Washington Phillips - The Creosote Journal",
        "raw_content": "The music of Washington Phillips is sublime and hypnotic, it floats down, inflected with great sadness and pain, as it reaches the earth, knowing what the earth is. Washington Phillips came from an America that remembered slavery, and his recorded voice and string playing scratch a vivid portrait out of the dust, of a rural South drifting further from memory.\n\u201cI don\u2019t mind dying \u2019cause I\u2019m a child of God,\u201d Washington said. And as with everything he said on the 16 recorded songs from 1929 that are his legacy, you believe he meant it.\nThe mystery that shrouds this man compounds the stunning beauty of his precious, few recorded songs. First of all, there is the instrument he played, hovering over the wordless passages of \u201cLift Him Up That\u2019s All\u201d and \u201cMother\u2019s Last Words to Her Son.\u201d That bouncing, ringing, jangling, sad-sweet sound, with something otherworldy about it; the man\u2019s only accompaniment to his voice, on almost all his songs.\nWas it a harp? A zither? A hand-made instrument devised by Phillips alone? We will never know for sure. All we know is that it was shaped like a large box of candy and could sound, simultaneously, like a hammered dulcimer, a honky tonk piano, and an autoharp.\nHis voice was an even greater instrument. The strength, fragility, purity and harshness of his voice are the most refined, delicate kind of blues, aching and flowering with that ache. And when his voice lifts into midair at moments like the falsetto hummed chorus of \u201cI Had a Good Mother and Father,\u201d it is enough to make you hold your breath.\nHe was born in the 1880\u2019s, lived in rural Texas and died unknown, with no dream of the legend he\u2019d leave behind. Depending on which story you believe, Washington Phillips left this world as a young man, suffering from tuberculosis in a sanitarium, or as an old man, of head injuries after falling down the stairs at a welfare office.\nSince so little is known about him, we are confined to finding out about Washington Phillips mainly by listening closely to his songs. And what I keep wondering is this: why does a man so sure he\u2019s saved by God sound so sad?\nIs there something ecstatic about Phillips\u2019 rejection of this world? Did he feel like he already belonged to the world of the dead? Was his joy at lifting his spirit to the Lord one and the same with his bitter knowledge of the pain and sorrow that haunt the living?\nAs far as I can tell, there\u2019s little in Phillips\u2019 gloomy, moralizing gospel songs that would place him in the grand, prophetic tradition of African-American Christianity that links the suffering of American slaves with the Biblical Israelites and in this subtext, reads liberation. Phillips only mentions the Black church in order to condemn it for sectarianism in \u201cDenomination Blues.\u201d\nWhat I hear in his music is an embrace of what I call Christian Nihilism: a belief in the hereafter that willfully diminishes the reality of earthly life. This is not a position I advocate at all, in fact I\u2019m against it. But I think it\u2019s given us some great art and is an understandable emotional response to bleak and hopeless circumstances. It\u2019s also, sometimes, the spiritual position of a rebel or a misanthrope\u2014individualistic, set against community and society.\nThis basically negative, death hungry stance is, in my opinion, exactly why there\u2019s nothing simpering or saccharine in the gospel music of Washington Phillips. It\u2019s not the Christianity of televangelism and the American religion of self-help and material gain through prayer. Stark and simple as a Russian icon, his is the old fashioned, world-damning Christianity of midnight revivals, river baptisms, and rotting clapboard churchhouses.\nPhillips eyes were firmly fixed on heaven\u2014which is to say, on death, and the bodiless existence beyond it that he craved. He seems as uninterested in earthly salvation and wordly justice as Saint Francis would have been. And he was probably as poor as any saint has ever been.\nThe fascinating and scant glimpses of Phillips\u2019 life that are available can be gleaned from Michael Corcoran\u2019s 2002 article for The Austin Statesman, Exhuming the Legend of Washington Phillips. Corcoran\u2019s best guess is that Washington Phillips eked out a living as a \u201cjack-leg preacher\u201d who, without a church, \u201croamed around\u201d looking for a place to hold court. In his hometown of Teague, he was better known for the mule cart he sold cane syrup from than for his musical genius.\nI can\u2019t help but fill in the picture and imagine him performing his transcendent music under a big, half-stormy sky in front of a naked and gnarled oak tree. But his music is universal. I discovered his music while living in San Francisco\u2019s Tenderloin, listening while looking four stories down to the intersection where the junkies and the prostitutes and the meth addicts wandered, destitute, half-aware of their surroundings. And his music seemed to belong there as much as anything could.\nWashington Phillips is the embodiment of what Greil Marcus called the \u201cOld, Weird America\u201d: the twilight land of arcane field recordings and ancient 78 rpm records coveted by the likes of underground cartoonist R. Crumb. To me, it\u2019s also a musical counterpart to great Southern art like the literature of Faulkner and Flannery O\u2019Connor.\nIt\u2019s remarkable that these handful of recordings by an obscure, unknown rural genius have survived as well as they have. Ry Cooder covered some of his songs in the 1970\u2019s, leading a revival of his music that included covers by Will Oldham, Gillian Welch, The Be Good Tanyas, Phish, and Mogwai. His music has been sampled by Atlas Sound, and used as a soundtrack in films by Werner Herzog and others.\nSince I started listening to him, I hear traces of Washington Phillips in all sorts of places, from the Velvet Underground to Prince. They are probably not real traces in any direct sense, and only an aesthetic linking in my imagination. But some of them are probably more than that; they really are the faintest of echoes of influence and sensibility coming down from the days of pancake-thick 78\u2019s played on an old Victrola, and this utterly unique and original artist who made a handful of recordings in the 1920\u2019s\u2014and then vanished from the history of recorded music.\nListen to some Washington Phillips songs here: Lift Him Up, That\u2019s All, Mother\u2019s Last Words to Her Son, I Had a Good Mother and Father.\nHis music has been reissued by Yazoo Records and is available here, along with other fine recordings.",

We have still been working on the game although it has been hard and at times we have had to deal with other issues and had to put the game on the back burner for a while. Things are still moving forward though! We are going to do our best to update more often going forward. I know we have said that before and failed, but we\u2019re going to keep trying. We do have some updates lined up for the near future. We are hoping to update every two weeks on the Wednesday. So check back then.\nWe have for you right now a Let\u2019s Play of Gemfire, the game that inspired Sunset Over Lievnos. I have loved Gemfire since I was a kid but Erika has never played it. Considering she is working on a game that is inspired by it, I thought it would be a good idea for her to play it, so we recorded it!\nWatch our Gemfire Let\u2019s Play now: http://youtu.be/dgUM6N-PHkA\nSo we are going to try to do some podcasts about our development of Sunset Over Lievnos and see how it works out. Here is our first episode! It is about the prequel story and our writing/editing process. Give it a listen and comment bellow or head over to the forum at www.crownnation.com/forum to discuss.\nDownload Ep 01 \u2013 Prequel Story & Editing Process \u2013 24min, 45MB\ncharcters, drawing, promotional, sunset over lievnos, work in progress\nHere are a couple of works that are just sketches at this point. We have been working hard on character development, plot development, and just general story making. My plan is to now start creating some illustrations which are more emblematic of the story we are going to tell.\nA couple that will be important right at the start. No spoilers! Stop asking.\nA title piece I have had on my list for a long time. Now I have images I can put in here that are actually from our plot! Not just for decoration. Don\u2019t look at that knights hand \u2026 I have to fix that.\ncostume, erika, icons, illustration, knight, medieval, sunset over lievnos\nNO! I have not died.\n\u2026 I just wanted you to know.\nYep. These are for things. Things you may have seen in a screenshot.\nSomeone by the name Sniglefritz had found our SoL project and asked some questions over at the Crown Nation Forum. My response ended up being fairly large and gives a pretty good summary of our current situation with SoL so I thought I would post a link to the forum so you can all check it out (and ask any follow-up questions!).\nIf you don\u2019t see the link above, just copy and paste this link into the address bar of your browser:\nhttp://crownnation.com/forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=80\nI haven\u2019t posted on the blog in a little while so I thought I\u2019d give a little update as to what is going on. Since we were unsuccessful in the Kickstarter campaign we are shifting our focus to the PC version of the game, which we will release first. This means we don\u2019t have to buy any new hardware or pay development fees which allows us to continue working on the game. Right now I am porting the code from the iOS version to the PC version. There are a few things we need to reconsider in the process and a few extra things I need to account for like variable resolutions and different input methods. Things are going nicely though and I\u2019m currently testing a couple of new features which I hope will make Sunset Over Lievnos even better! We\u2019ll have more info very soon, so stay tuned!\nOur Kickstarter campaign for Sunset Over Lievnos (Click here to see the campaign page) has just come to an end and unfortunately we were unsuccessful at reaching our goal of $8000. On the plus side the whole process was a great learning experience and I took away some valuable lessons. I thought I would share my experiences which I hope will give insight into this project and it\u2019s future as well perhaps help other people who are launching their own campaign.\nTarget Audience and platform.\nWhen we very first started thinking about this project it was about two years ago and at that time I was really getting into creating Apps for iOS since it was a growing market and it didn\u2019t have a lot of games that had a lot of depth. Furthermore, the touch interface works well with turn-based games and I thought Sunset Over Lievnos would be well suited for iPad. Since then, the industry has shifted somewhat and my understanding has changed about the App Store and what types of games sell.\nFrom the feedback I\u2019m getting and from the articles I\u2019ve read, people who buy games from the App Store aren\u2019t interested in a deep experience and they certainly aren\u2019t willing to pay more than a few dollars for anything. The market won\u2019t pay for deep games and so gamemakers don\u2019t create them. What you end up with is a huge marketplace for casual games, but not much else. While that is all well and good, I enjoy a good solitaire or puzzle game, it just doesn\u2019t seem like a great home for Sunset Over Lievnos.\nIn addition, most people who buy from the App Store don\u2019t do extensive research about their games, they buy what\u2019s on the charts or some ranked list. iOs users aren\u2019t interested in up-and-coming games, they aren\u2019t a part of the gaming industry, and they don\u2019t go out of their way to support indie developers. Finding an audience of iOS gamers who like niche strategy titles or who support indies is very challenging, if not impossible. Launching a Kickstarter campaign to get money from them up front is therefore not going to work well.\nIn my previous promotional outings I had received a bit of feedback from people who wanted a PC version so initially I had a stretch goal for a PC version. It was pointed out to me through some feedback that this actually is alienating the PC crowd who might consider pledging but would end up with nothing if the stretch goal wasn\u2019t met. With that in mind my partner and I decided mid-campaign so bite the bullet and officially commit to creating a PC port if our initial funding goal was met, thereby ensuring our PC supporters a game they could play. Confirming my suspicions about the iOS as a platform being difficult to get supporters from, the majority of our pledges came after we announced a PC version.\nWhile we didn\u2019t receive any specific feedback that our rewards were bad, and in fact the feedback we did get was that they were in-line with other projects, we had very few people subscribe to the higher levels. Ultimately people ended up just preordering the game and that made up the bulk of our pledges. While I think this is probably how most campaigns work, we didn\u2019t get nearly enough people at higher levels to bring in bigger cash inflow. I would still like to hear opinions on our rewards levels and I would look at those much more closely if I ever did another campaign.\nNot Enough To Show\nI think one of the biggest problems we had was that the game just isn\u2019t far along enough in development to show a lot of actual game play. This means that it was difficult to communicate to others what the game is about. If you haven\u2019t played Gemfire or Romance of the Three Kingdoms then it\u2019s a bit difficult to get someone to understand how the game flows without showing them. Unfortunately we were/are stuck in a bit of a paradox. We need funding to get the tools we need to create the game, but we are unable to get funding because there isn\u2019t enough of the game completed to inspire people to fund us. We had several comments about how we didn\u2019t have any of the soundtrack available. The reason for that is that I need the funding money to buy the software and hardware in order to make the soundtrack. We had hoped that launching a campaign early in development would allow us to procure the tools to speed up development. My Macbook Air just isn\u2019t up to the task and compiling and running the game takes up to a minute each time. Often, especially when tweaking user interface and graphic positions I could compile and run the game 4 or 5 times a minute if my computer could process faster. And because the screen is smaller with such a low resolution I end up with fewer lines of code on the screen and I have to do more scrolling. It slows down how fast I can analyze my code or find specific lines I\u2019m looking for. The Air is capable of outputting to an external monitor, but it turns out that doing it causes the Air to overheat and the performance takes a huge nose-dive.\nBecause we are so early in development we haven\u2019t had a lot of time to promote the game before the Kickstarter campaign. This means we went into the campaign with just about no following. I also didn\u2019t spend enough time in the indie communities until the campaign was live. I\u2019m actually really enjoying being part of these communities and I think that in the long run making some connections here will help out so I intend on continuing my participation. The one thing that this campaign was great for was in promoting the game. Especially after we announced the PC version we received a fair amount of support which was encouraging.\nThe Future of Sunset Over Lievnos\nAt this point, since our funding has failed and we don\u2019t owe anything to anyone, I\u2019m debating about whether it is worthwhile to finish the iPad version at all and whether I should just set to work on the PC version straight away. It doesn\u2019t seem like there isn\u2019t much of an audience for this game on iPad and it would also mean I wouldn\u2019t have to buy the hardware I need to make the iPad version. There would of course be a bit of a delay since I would have to port all of the code I currently have, but it may be worth doing now rather than later. Erika and I are still both committed to making this game happen. Right now we\u2019re taking a look at our options.\nI would LOVE to hear what our supporters are thinking. What did we do that you liked? What did you not like about the campaign? Is anyone at all interested in the iPad version or should I scrap it in favour of an earlier PC release? Let us know! I also wanted to thank Rya Reisender, Raifeld, Bob The Hamster, Dragon Atma, Hideo Kuze, and Starry Knights who really went out of their way to give me some solid feedback, analysis, and discussion about the campaign and the game itself. Your input was greatly appreciated. Of course, I also want to thank everyone who pledged and showed their support for this project! Please check back soon, we\u2019ll let everyone know more about what happens next as soon as we figure it all out.\nWell, we were off to a bit of a slow start, which I anticipated since we are still working on getting the word out about the game. The promotion aspect of an indie game is much harder than I thought it would be. As a pretty hard core gamer, one who is particularly into the indie scene, I do a lot of searching myself and I find a lot of great projects. What I forget is that the general population doesn\u2019t do that and so reaching that audience is quite difficult. I have spent a ton of time reading and researching ideas on how to promote yourself and I spend about an hour a day trying to get the word out but I haven\u2019t found sure-fire technique. An hour a day isn\u2019t that much I guess but it\u2019s really all I can afford between work and trying to actually get the game done. Perhaps there isn\u2019t one guaranteed technique and it\u2019s about a collection of sources that eventually lead up to some semblance of mainstream exposure. I know there are a lot of services out there who help promotion, but if we had money to buy into those services we probably wouldn\u2019t need to Kickstarter.\nEven so, I think we are doing pretty good. We have had a few people buy the higher tiers, which is awesome since it drives our number up quickly. I\u2019m also excited about finding some new people who are interested in the game and I have received some very positive feedback about the project. It\u2019s nice to know there are still some strategy gamers out there who are excited about a game like this. few of you are even helping us get the word out and I\u2019m finding the name \u201cSunset Over Lievnos\u201d pop up around the web, which is fantastic! I definitely want to thank our early adopters who are getting the ball rolling, it really does mean a lot to us! As of this post we are at 14% funding with just under $1200 made toward our goal with 42 days left.\nI\u2019ll have more news about the game itself soon, so check back!",

        "raw_content": "Two weeks from now, I will be in prison.\nThat\u2019s the first thing people ask when I tell them I am going to spend my weekend with 270 maximum security women inmates. What would entice a seemingly sane person to take the considerable time, expense and effort to travel from New York to Madera, California, and voluntarily walk through gates of razor wire and armed guards into a cement block gymnasium filled with 270 maximum security women inmates? Let me explain.\nUnlike most women who go there by court order, I can\u2019t wait to get there. My side hustle is volunteering with FreedomtoChooseFoundation.org, teaching communications and relationship skills, and forgiveness as a foundational life-skill to female inmates.\nWhy do I do it? I do it because I see something in these women that has the power to truly heal the world, and I want to be a part of it. And, when I am part of it, I heal as well. I encourage you to view the video below so that you may better understand the mindset of these inmates and how what we do through this organization helps to not change them \u2013 but transform them.\nEducation for a Second Chance from Freedom to Choose Foundation on Vimeo.\nIn the 25 years that I have practiced Integrated Therapeutic Healing, I have observed that how we relate to the world around us is a direct reflection on how we relate to ourselves. This also has a direct impact on our body, mind, and emotions \u2013 what I like to call our inner ecosystem.\nWhen our inner ecosystem is in balance, we naturally make life-affirming choices. Our natural tendency is towards life, growth and learning. Therefore, when an illness, disturbance or symptom arises from within us, it is usually a reflection of misinformation within. You might be familiar with this phenomena as the mind-body connection.\nMany of us respond to seemingly negative situations in our lives by amputating a part of ourselves or by attacking it, casting blame, or seeing ourselves as \u201cfaulty\u201d. We think that by doing this, we will starve the flame. Instead, contributes to brings about the vicious cycle of repeated actions that we did not like to begin with.\nHealing oneself effectively starts with recognizing that we are already whole and that we have the means to heal ourselves. We are not \u201cbroken\u201d. True healing involves identifying who you really are, rather than the story you have been telling yourself of who you are based on your circumstances \u2013 such as being incarcerated, having an illness, or being depressed. Too often, we give in to our stories and let them define us rather than connecting with our true selves.\nWe have within us the mechanisms to heal ourselves: just like our bodies can naturally heal cuts, we can heal our internal imbalances. Consider individuals like Victor Frankl and Nelson Mandela, who overcame great odds and inspire us to be more than what we think we are capable of being. Their stories are considered miracles and yet, we all have the capacity to experience that miracle for ourselves.\nI have witnessed the women inmates that I work with demonstrate these same skills. Consider that these women may have indeed behaved in manners that warranted their incarceration. In fact, they may have created trauma for others as well as for themselves.\nI had the opportunity to get to know these individuals on a more personal level that extends beyond their crimes. Most importantly, I was able to watch as they began to catch sight of themselves beyond their crimes.\nWhat I find to be truly powerful isn\u2019t the fact that we are all human and make mistakes, but that these women who have pushed the envelope and gone to the farthest extreme of \u201cbad\u201d behavior, are still human. These women still experience love, mercy and forgiveness. And if they can do it, so can the rest of us.\nThere\u2019s a saying that the light in the dark is brighter than the light in the light and certainly this is true of prison life. And yet even there, in one of the darkest places on earth, there is undeniably light within. If this light can manifest in this place and in the hearts of these women, then it can manifest anywhere.\nI shared some of my prison experience with a client when I returned home from California for the first time. She then asked me a question that sat with me for a couple of days. She wanted to know why, if these women can have such profound change in two days, what was taking her so long?\nAfter some thought, it became very clear to me. So much of our suffering comes from conflict in response to the world around us. We believe that if something or someone out there would just change, then everything would be alright. Those of us who aren\u2019t confined behind bars and concrete tend to believe that fixing the outside world is the answer to making ourselves feel better.\nThe women in this prison have learned that they can no longer change their outer ecosystem. And so, if they are going to find happiness, peace, healing or loving, their only choice is to find it within themselves. The truth of the matter is that this is where true healing begins for all of us. We are not all that unlike the women behind bars.\nWe are not unlike the women behind bars.",

        "title": "Hammer Toe Treatment Without Surgery - daphnemonestime's soup",
        "raw_content": "Hammer Toe Treatment Without Surgery\nThere are two different types. Flexible hammertoes. These are less serious because they can be diagnosed and treated while still in the developmental stage. They are called flexible hammertoes because they are still moveable at the joint. Rigid Hammertoes. This variety is more developed and more serious than the flexible condition. Rigid hammertoes can be seen in patients with severe arthritis, for example, or in patients who wait too long to seek professional treatment. The tendons in a rigid hammertoe have become tight, and the joint misaligned and immobile, making surgery the usual course of treatment.\nMany people start by hammertoes treating the problem themselves when they have a painful corn or callus. They try to remove the corn by cutting it off or by applying strong acids, and they try to cushion the toe by applying cushioned pads. Because these treatments can be difficult to perform by oneself (and should never be done by oneself when the patient is diabetic or circulation is poor), and because these treatments only treat the symptom, not the structural deformity that causes their symptom, these treatments can often provide only limited success, and often any success is for only short periods of time. Changes in shoe choices and various types of paddings and other appliances may help, too. For longer-lasting help, we must examine the cause of the deformity. The reason for knowing the cause is that the type of treatment will vary, depending upon the cause of the complaint. Orthotics help control the causes of certain types of contracted toes, (those caused by flexor stabilization, for example), but not other types.\nSeveral surgical procedures are available to the podiatric physician. For less severe deformities, the surgery will remove the bony prominence and restore normal alignment of the toe joint, thus relieving pain. Severe hammertoes, which are not fully reducible, may require more complex surgical procedures. Recuperation takes time, and some swelling and discomfort are common for several weeks following surgery. Any pain, however, is easily managed with medications prescribed by your podiatric physician.\nFew people realize that their feet grow over the years: actually, the heel stays the same, but the front of the foot becomes wider and longer. The result, most women wear shoes that fit at the heel but are much too narrow in the front. Buy shoes that fit the longer foot. For two out of three people, one foot is significantly bigger than the other. Have both feet measured whenever you buy shoes. Have your feet measured while you're standing, and buy shoes that fit the larger foot. Shop at the end of the day, when foot swelling is greatest. No shoe should feel tight. Don't go by numbers. You may think of yourself as a size 8B, but size varies from shoe to shoe. There is no standardization, so pick the shoes that fit best. Limit high-heel use. These shoes increase pressure on the front of the foot by at least 50 percent, so wear them only for special occasions. Flat shoes are more comfortable than high heels, but they, too, can be hard on your feet, especially if they are thin-soled. Change your shoes. If your shoes are too short or too narrow, get another pair. This is especially important for children going through periods of rapid growth. The toe area should be high enough so that it doesn't rub against the top of your toes-especially if hammer toes have started to develop.",

        "raw_content": "Nurseryman, broadcaster | 1888-1946 | Shenandoah\nEarl May sits at a microphone in the 1920s. He is credited with starting early-morning broadcasts of news and weather forecasts./\nEarl May first dreamed of becoming a lawyer. Then he found a new love: garden seeds and nursery plants. They helped him build an empire and made him a household name.\nAs a pioneer broadcaster, mail-order businessman and promoter, May had few equals.\nHe was born on a farm in Hayes Center, Neb., graduated from the local school, then taught to earn money for college. He had started a college fund as a boy by raising turkeys and trapping wild animals for their skins.\nAt 20, May graduated from Nebraska's Fremont College, returned to Hayes Center to become the principal, then started law school at the University of Michigan in 1911.\nHe finished up at the University of Nebraska law school in Lincoln in 1915.\nMay's life changed in Michigan when he became interested in the seed business with a job during summer vacations. He found easy success with the D.M. Ferry Co. as he traveled by horseback, selling seeds to farmers along the way.In 1916, May married his University of Nebraska classmate Gertrude Welch, daughter of E.S. Welch, the president of Mount Arbor Nurseries in Shenandoah. The couple later had a son and daughter.\nMay became an executive at Mount Arbor Nurseries, then started his own seed company, the Earl May Seed & Nursery Co., in 1919, making sure it was well-established before resigning from Mount Arbor in 1920.\nA man with vision, May turned to radio broadcasting in 1924, using the new medium to market his products to farmers throughout the Midwest. Establishing radio station KMA in 1925, he is credited with originating early-morning broadcasts, which farmers valued for news updates and weather forecasts.\nIn 1926, Radio Digest named May the most popular radio announcer in the nation. His folksy approach had enormous appeal.\nIn 1927, May spent $100,000 on his new KMA studios at Shenandoah. The modern facility, called Mayfair, seated 1,000 in a movie-palace-type of auditorium, and the next year attracted 400,000 visitors wanting to take part in live broadcasts.\nMay was civic-minded and frequently honored. He and rival nurseryman Henry Field turned Shenandoah into a thriving, exciting community, drawing scores of tourists.\nDuring the Depression, May won legions of loyal customers when he shipped seeds to cash-strapped farmers, telling them they could pay him when they were able. And they did.\nWhile vacationing at his summer home in Mercer, Wis., May became ill and later suffered a series of heart attacks. He died of uremic poisoning at St. Mary's Hospital in Duluth, Minn.\nAfter his death, he was buried at Rose Hill Cemetery in Shenandoah.",

        "raw_content": "In the mid 1980s, aboriginal groups in Saskatchewan were asking to put their wayward youth through their traditional system of justice where the community tries and rehabilitates the accused. Their contention was that the European court system didn\u2019t work well in their communities.\nThe critics, mostly officials in the justice system, were quick to denounce this suggestion. Their reasons were it would involve two systems of law; law is too complicated for ordinary people to understand; and the aboriginal communities were not mature enough to handle criminal issues. I will concede that I did agree with these officials at that time, but I thought the aboriginal model might be an interesting social experiment.\nThe justice bureaucracy eventually relented for two reasons. In 1992, they did try aboriginal sentencing circles in Fort Chipewyan, a northern Alberta town that is so isolated that another justice system could be experimented without interfering with the European model too much. The results: much better justice was served when the community became involved in the decision. Recidivism was lower, and offenders had more respect for decision given to them.\nThe second reason for the change of heart was the budget cutbacks. Lower budgets hit prosecution departments, and they had fewer resources to administer justice. They started prosecuting small youth crimes by sending offenders a letter of reprimand instead of forcing them into court. Many of these youth scoffed at such a punishment and took it to mean they could continue with their wayward ways. The situation was getting out of hand.\nThe Alberta government looked at the Fort Chipewyan example and decided to create a similar model for its \u201cEuropean\u201d society. Volunteers would administer the cases, hear the trials, sentence the offenders, and administer their punishment. I joined the High River Youth Justice committee in 1997, and we heard cases of youth who admitted their guilt.\nWe had four types of youth go through our system. The first were youth that were sooner or later going to jail; our purpose was to prove to society that these people cannot be rehabilitated and need to be locked up. The second group very reluctantly obeyed our sentences and continued with a somewhat risky lifestyle. But our involvement was part of their eventual maturation into responsible citizens. The third group were already rehabilitated before they got to us\u2014the parents, the police, and the embarrassment were enough hassle to make them not to want to do crime again. And sometimes we got a youth was on an edge of what kind of life he or she would be leading. I think we were more effective at influencing this youth than a judge, prosecutor, and defence lawyer.\nEvery time we heard a case, I estimate we volunteers saved the Alberta taxpayer $1000.\nWhen I first started, our overseer from the justice department said that we would only be hearing cases of petty theft and vandalism. The regular court system would handle all other crimes. Three years later, our group was handling alcohol and drug infractions, theft over $5000, and assaults. I think we got these extra responsibilities because we were good at administering justice and the prosecution wanted to direct more of their resources towards their more difficult cases.\nStrange: 15 years ago the experts said it was impossible for non-professionals to be involved in our legal system. I wonder what the future is.",

        "raw_content": "Faith-based groups turn up the heat on ICE\nA man, who would not identify himself, holds a sign at a protest camp on property outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Portland, Ore., on June 25, 2018. Law enforcement officers began distributing notices to vacate to demonstrators late Monday morning. The round-the-clock demonstration outside the Portland headquarters began June 17, 2018, and increased in size early last week, prompting officials to close the facility. (AP Photo/Don Ryan)\n(RNS) \u2014 Even before the Trump administration\u2019s \u201czero tolerance\u201d policy led to the forced separation of immigrant parents and children at the U.S.-Mexico border, religious groups cast a jaundiced eye on the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.\nKnown as ICE for short, the agency has drawn widespread criticism for its aggressive arrest of immigrants, procedural missteps and documented cases of physical and sexual abuse among detainees. Last year, a report by Homeland Security\u2019s Office of Inspector General identified a series of problems that \u201cundermine the protection of detainees\u2019 rights, their humane treatment, and the provision of a safe and healthy environment.\u201d Those included strip-searching detainees and deterring them from filing grievances.\nNow two left-leaning faith-based groups, the American Friends Service Committee and the Unitarian Universalist Association, are joining a growing call to abolish ICE.\nOn Monday (June 25), the AFSC, a group founded by the Quakers, issued an email urging recipients to \u201cSign our petition today: Tell Congress to abolish ICE!\u201d And this past weekend, delegates to the Unitarian Universalist Association meeting in Kansas City, Mo., passed a resolution calling for ICE to be dismantled. The sentiment was so overwhelming that no count was taken.\n\u201cICE has a history of terrorizing and abusing immigrants and operating outside the law,\u201d the UUA resolution reads. \u201cAs the agency carrying out the administration\u2019s barbaric policies, it must be dismantled so humane and appropriate processes and agencies can be created.\u201d\nDelegates voting during the General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association meeting in Kansas City, Mo., on June 20-24, 2018. Photo courtesy of Nancy Pierce/UUA\nReligious groups are just the latest to champion the idea of killing the agency. The effort has already gained traction among several congressional candidates plus four sitting members of Congress, all Democrats.\nAnd Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., viewed as a potential 2020 presidential candidate, said Sunday during an interview with NBC News that \u201cwe need to probably think about starting from scratch\u201d in immigration enforcement. Sen. Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont who is also a potential 2020 presidential contender, has so far shied from calling for the agency\u2019s elimination.\nBut many faith-based groups that have been working with immigrants have never liked ICE.\nThe agency, created in 2003 and installed under the jurisdiction of the then-new Department of Homeland Security, was set up in the wake of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.\nIt gained a reputation for its zealous enforcement of laws on the border, particularly with undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers. Faith-based groups working with immigrants have been among the first to point out cases where ICE has picked up people suspected of being undocumented in workplace raids, outside of hospitals and riding in cars.\n\u201cWe have many groups around the country working with immigrant communities, experiencing firsthand the systematic abuses that ICE has been carrying out,\u201d said Kristin Kumpf, director of human migration and mobility for the AFSC.\nThe organization hopes to get some 10,000 signatures for its petition to Congress. As of Wednesday it had received half that. Many of its supporters have also adopted the Twitter hashtag #AbolishICE.\nKumpf said she didn\u2019t feel like the organization needed to offer a solution for replacing ICE.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t need to have an exact blueprint for restructuring the federal government in this moment to say that ICE is immoral, unaccountable and dangerous,\u201d she added.\nNeither did Carey McDonald, an executive vice president of the Unitarian Universalist Association. \u201cWe lived without ICE for a long time,\u201d he said, adding that the country could easily go back to pre-2003 status quo. Prior to ICE, the government empowered the Immigration and Naturalization Service to undertake enforcement.\nMcDonald said 60 percent of the association\u2019s 1,000 congregations reported taking some public action to support immigration justice last year. Some 80 UUA congregations have pledged their willingness to offer sanctuary to undocumented immigrants and others are training now to accompany detained immigrants when they go to court hearings, often with no legal counsel.\n\u201cOne of our principles is the inherent worth and dignity of each person,\u201d McDonald said. \u201cOur immigration system denies the dignity of people in the system.\u201d\nTags#AbolishICE American Friends Service Committee asylum-seekers homepage featured ICE immigration undocumented immigrants Unitarian Universalist Association\nKing of Jordan wins Templeton Prize for fostering Muslim cooperation",

We have 40,611 that have TINs, that made tax payment and, we have 44,504 that have no TIN and no payment.\nFowler commended the Nigerian Police Force for its support and collaboration over the years, which he said, had helped the FIRS to achieve its target and requested for more support to enable it to recover taxes due to rich tax evaders in 2019.

(Rev.21:4)\nThe tears shall be wiped away and the former things shall be no more in the glories of the ecstasies of the Kingdom to come!\n\"It will be worth it all\nLife's trials will seem so small,\nWhen we see Christ!\nAll sorrow will erase!\nSo bravely run the race,\n'Til we see Christ!\"",

But if He's not blessing you, it's not His fault, it's your fault!--Something's wrong somewhere.\nSometimes you just have to have the faith to trust God, that He knows best.--Just like a child has to trust a parent, even though he doesn't always understand why he must do this or that or not do it. He just has to \"do it because Daddy says so!\"--Because Daddy knows best, and he'll probably find out Daddy was right in the long run! The smartest thing a child can do is to obey and follow his parents, and do as they do, and as they tell him to do, if he wants to stay out of trouble and survive!--So help us, Lord, to just trust Thee and obey, whether we always understand what You are doing in our lives or not.\nThe thing that counts with God is your faith in Him and His Word, and your obedience to the Lord. So God bless you and help you to believe and obey--As the old hymn says,\n\"Trust and obey, for there's no other way,\nTo be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey!\"",

        "raw_content": "Problem: This verse affirms that Israel was in the land from the time of Moses to the time of Samuel, a period of about \u201cthree hundred years.\u201d However, if one adds up all the reigns of the judges, it totals some 410 years.\nSolution: The obvious solution is that, like the later kings of Israel, there were overlapping reigns. In other words, while some of the land was under oppression by a foreign ruler, other parts may have been delivered by a judge of Israel. Furthermore, it was common for a ruler to claim the whole year when he reigned only a part of it. Thus, the same year would be counted by different judges.\nFurthermore, the 300 years total between Joshua and Samuel (ca. 1400\u20131100 b.c.) fits well with other verses that place the whole time period from the Exodus to Solomon at 480 years (1 Kings 6:1), and Acts 13:20 which speaks of 450 years between Israel\u2019s conquering the Land and Solomon\u2019s death (ca. 1381\u2013931 b.c.).",

        "raw_content": "GECOM to observe Automatic Voting Machine system at UGSS elections\nFLASH BACK: Officials of The DELIAN Project meeting with GECOM officials.\nAutomatic Voter Machines (AVMs) are to be used here for the first time at the University of Guyana\u2019s Students\u2019 Society (UGSS) elections as a pilot project to ascertain whether they could be used in a general or local government election.\n\u201cOf particular interest to the University of Guyana and by extension the country in general, is the secured transmission of results from remote poll stations to a pre-determined central command center utilising pre-existing GSM network systems,\u201d said the University of Guyana in a statement. \u201cThis latter aspect will be robustly tested during the UGSS elections given the spatial distribution of the polling stations.\u201d\nThe University of Guyana says it has invited the Guyana Elections Commission to observe the voting process at the Turkeyen and Tain Campuses.\nThe annual elections for the posts of President and Faculty Representatives for the University of Guyana Students\u2019 Society are scheduled for October 1, 3 and 4, 2014.\nGuyana\u2019s general elections have been repeatedly dogged by the slow delivery of results. Representatives of the DELIAN Project have already pitched the idea of the use of the AVMs to GECOM.\nThe government of Canada and the Canadian non-governmental organisation, DELIAN Project, are funding the use of the automated technology at the UGSS\u2019 elections. \u201cA new feature added to the voting process this year, is the use of automated voter machines (AVMs) -as a pilot/case study \u2013 to allow for the casting, tabulation and generation of the statement of polls. The use of electoral technology is expected to improve the integrity of the vote count, allowing students to have more confidence in its legitimacy,\u201d added UG.\nThe DELIAN team will be in Guyana from September 29, 2014. They are expected to give a demonstration of the AVMs on the same day at 3:30 PM in the Education Lecture Theatre, Turkeyen Campus.\nThe four student groups contesting the elections this year are: the Students\u2019 Empowerment Alliance, with presidential candidate hopeful Mr Joshua Griffith ( the out-going Senior Vice-President, UGSS); the Students Movement Advocating Real Transformation, with presidential candidate hopeful Mr Andre Chowbay (out-going Assistant Secretary, UGSS), new comers the Students United Movement, with presidential candidate hopeful Mr Denroy Tudor and the veteran Revolutionaries, with presidential candidate hopeful Mr Glendfield Dennison.\nStudents of the Turkeyen campus are expected to vote on Wednesday, October 1, from 12 noon. The students of the Berbice campus (Tain and John\u2019s annex) will cast their votes on Friday, October 3, 2014. While on Saturday, October 4, the graduate students will cast their votes at the Turkeyen campus.\nDELIAN reported that the key benefits of using an AVM-based system include transparency, accessibility, speed in the tabulation of votes and a reduction in administrative costs. The DELIAN Project has piloted the use of the AVMs in a number of emerging democracies with much success and more recently the electoral technology was used at the University of West Indies (Mona Campus) for student elections.\nPrevious: AFC, Attorney General in war of words over sexual assault plot against Trotman\nNext: Gunmen grab GUY$1.1 million",

        "raw_content": "\"We walked away happy with our year and satisfied with everything,\" Stout said recently. \"The only thing missing, we never did get ourselves a win. But other than that, we had just about as good a year as we could have hoped, for being new.\"\nStout, 26, finished fourth overall in Production 1000 UTV points. He had three podium finishes in 11 starts and is looking forward to chasing a championship in the class in 2019.\nThat would add to a resume that includes two-time national champion and driver of the year in professional Sports Cars; including the Mazda MX-5 Cup in which he also plans to compete again full time this year. Stout also has driven Winged Sprint Cars along with Indy Lights cars during his career.\nHe's won at a lot of venues, including the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway where he kissed the bricks after a Global MX-5 Cup win on Father's Day 2017.\nBut other than a dabble with a Pro Buggy racing in 2014, Stout never had raced Off Road vehicles prior to last season. Why did he think it was the right time?\nStout was a big fan of the style of racing, for starters.\n\"I love Sports-Car racing. It's what I've spent my whole life doing and training for and working on,\" he said. \"Off Road is something I've been coming to the races for so long. I've always loved it and always wanted to run it.\n\"All of a sudden, the Production 1000 UTV came within sight. It's probably the most-affordable form of racing you can do that still offers a full TV (coverage) package. That alone sells itself. On top of that, it has manufacturer involvement.\"\n\"At this point in my career, I have no Plan B. I've committed my life to racing. The reason I'm running (Sports Cars) in the Mazda MX-5 Cup, is the manufacturer's involvement. They offer you a way to move up to the next level. If you win the Cup, they fund you to move on.\"\nStout said Production 1000 UTV, with its strong backing from various manufacturers makes the class particularly appealing.\nThis year, he looks to again have sponsorship backing from Tommy Thompson Motorsports and Magic Dry absorbent to make a run at dethroning Brock Heger from the top spot.\n\"Now that I've run all these tracks before, and we've made strides in the development of the car, I feel confident that we're going to be one of the main contenders,\" Stout said. \"I've been training harder than ever before. Those races can be physically exhausting. Those cars can be a handful to steer. I'm blown away with how much a 15-lap race can wear on you in one of those cars.\n\"But I feel really good knowing the car, knowing the tracks and knowing my competitors. And having almost a year working with Paul (Yaw) and his suspensions, I feel we're going to be a contender.\"\nStout, who's from Brownsburg, Indiana, but resides much of the year in Palm Springs, California, said an ideal circumstance would be to secure enough funding to run both Production 1000 UTV and Turbo UTV in the same Yamaha manufactured vehicle.\n\"If all goes well, maybe we can expand as the year goes on,\" he said.\nEither way, he looks forward to being a part of the thrills and spills of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series for a second straight year.\n\"I had been a spectator and fan for over 10 years,\" he said. \"To be a part of the show now is awesome \u2026 not only to be involved in it, but to be a contender for a win every time we show up.\"",

Unlike the smaller, contemporaneous Camelops, Titanotylopus had relatively broad second phalanges, suggesting that it had true padded \"cameltoes,\" like modern camels.\nThe species Titanotylopus spatulus was characterized by broad, spatula-like incisors. It has been found in Texas, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, and Arizona.\nTitanotylpus possessed long and massive limbs, a comparatively small braincase, and a convex slope between the eyes. Its average height was 11 feet (3.5 meters). Like modern camels, it possessed a hump for fat storage; evidence for this is provided by the long neural spines on its thoracic vertebrae.\nListed Species Edit\nTitanotylopus nebraskensis\nRetrieved from \"http://dinosaur.wikia.com/wiki/Titanotylopus?oldid=4090\"\nGiant Camel",

        "title": "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong: Surprise! Louis Armstrong Meets Horace Heidt",
        "raw_content": "It shouldn't be a surprise that I live for new Louis Armstrong discoveries, especially if it's footage. Since 2008, I've gone to the Satchmo Summerfest in New Orleans every year to show at least three hours of Pops videos and after doing this for six years, I'm starting to repeat myself. And though it doesn't happen often, anytime anything new pops up, I'm all over it.\nEarlier this week, I was in a zombiefied state riding the bus to work one day after I spent 16 hours soaking in the music at the incredible New York Hot Jazz Festival. I wasn't sure if I could fully function but then I checked Facebook and my friend Simone Dabusti had something stronger than coffee: a brand new 8:26 long video of Louis on Horace Heidt's TV show, \"The Swift Show Wagon,\" broadcast live from New Orleans on February 26, 1955! Eureka!\nFor years, I saw this entry in Jos Willems's Armstrong discography and wondered what it was all about (Willems might not have known either as he only listed an \"unknown studio orchestra\" and not the All Stars, who are clearly visible onstage). Then, when I started working at the Louis Armstrong House Museum, I found that Louis had the audio of this entire segment on one of his private reel-to-reel tapes. I listened to it and loved it but mistakenly described it as a \"radio\" broadcast (something I'll fix next week!). But would the visuals ever service?\nWhen it comes to early TV broadcast, the answer is usually \"no,\" but things keep popping up all the time. A few weeks ago, as part of the wonderful month-long \"Marxfest\" celebration that is currently gripping New York, I attended a presentation by the great Robert S. Bader on an upcoming boxed set he's producing for Shout Factory of rare Marx Brothers TV appearances. He told the stories of how he found most of them and sure enough, a good deal of kinescopes were found in the closets and attics of the Marx's descendents. Thus, it was no surprise to see the Horace Heidt video uploaded by an account called \"Horace Heidt Productions\" as Heidt's family must be the only ones to have the original film. And to upload it on YouTube? Bless them!\nI'm going to shut up for a minute and share the video and then we'll give it the blow-by-blow analysis:\nHeidt, of course, was one of the most popular bandleaders in the country at the time and a fixture on the radio since the early 1930s. Louis never talked much about him, only having one record in his collection (\"Rain\"), but one can imagine he was a fan since he had a sweet tooth when it came to some of his tastes in music (paging Guy Lombardo!). For this summit meeting, Louis back in his hometown of New Orleans, where he had been filmed on the \"Colgate Comedy Hour\" one week earlier. This would be his last trip home until 1965; in 1956, the city passed a law prohibiting integrated bands from performing in public and Louis, who was proud of his integrated All Stars, stayed away for ten years.\nThe All Stars can be seen in this clip, but they're mostly in the background. Still, this is the great \"W.C. Handy/Satch Plays Fats\" edition with Trummy Young, Barney Bigard, Billy Kyle, Arvell Shaw and Barrett Deems and it's always great to see them. They open with an appropriate choice, \"Way Down Yonder in New Orleans,\" which had been in the band's book for years. However, this is a different version, complete with a key change and a three-chorus solo by Armstrong that builds higher and higher until he's wailing the melody an octave higher by the end, with plenty of improvised--inspired--phrasing. It's a swinging start....though the dancers could have used a little more rehearsal!\nThen it's time for Louis to indulge in the usual white-guy-tries-hip-talk routine that he had to endure almost anytime he showed up on TV, too (he wasn't alone). But Louis, as always, is a natural, even with corny scripted comedy, delivering lines like \"Horace Heidt, the corn cobbler\" and later, \"Dig you? I'll bury you!\" with that impeccable comedic timing. I laughed.\nAnd then a real neat thing, Louis introducing Faye Emerson by playing snippets of \"'A' She's Adorable,\" \"A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody\" and \"Sophisticated Lady.\" The latter is only two bars long but hearing Louis play Ellington's melody even so briefly is simply breathtaking. If only he had recorded a full version!\nThe finale is a \"hot vs. sweet\" battle between the \"hot\" Armstrong and Heidt's \"sweet\" saxophonist, Tony Johnson. It's a fun novelty with Pops blowing like made on \"The World is Waiting for the Sunrise,\" a tune that was not in the repertoire, but he was in an improvising mood that day and sounds great (though I'm sure some in certain parts of white America at the time, the sweet sound of Johnson's alto was preferred!). Both bands then join forces on an exciting \"Muskrat Ramble,\" with the Charleston dancers returning, still not quite together. A lovely moment is when the house lights are turned on the audience; everyone's clapping on a different beat (some in between!) but they're having a great time. Oddly, the microphone doesn't seem to be catching Pops, as his tone could normally cut through anything. Fortunately, after a short Trummy Young break, Louis takes it up and out and everyone goes home happy.\nThis is the second time in the last six months that a terrific piece of rare Pops television footage has shown up on YouTube (the other being the jaw-dropping \"Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen\" from 1957's \"Crescendo\" that I blogged about here). I know there's more out there...may they keep turning up! (And how nice would a \"Louis Armstrong on Television\" DVD set be? We can dream, can't we?)",

        "raw_content": "Max Planck's Life and Work\nMy page about Max Planck's life and work, a person that changed our lives\nThe following page is for academical porpuses only. This page is part of the evaluation of the subject \"Modulo De Competencias Comunicativas 2\" (Communicative Competition Module 2) from the falculty of Education sciences in Carabobo University located in Valencia, Venezuela. For this reason you may not be able to understand the way this page is structured. Thank You.\nWhy Did I chose this character?\nLaureate Max Planck\nI have to start introducing myself in order to understand the reasons why i decided to investigate about Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck. I'm H\u00e9ctor Alonso L\u00f3pez L\u00f3pez, I'm 23 years old and as an average person of my age I'm a student, but here is the thing, besides my regular career as a future teacher majoring English I also study engineering Majoring Telecommunications. During the fourth semester I looked into my pensum and saw subject called \"fisica 3\" (physics 3). During The semester it was awful how people ran away from the classes because noone was understanding a thing on classes, but, a few people stayed (including me) and didn't understand a thing either. To sum up I took that class 4 times!! it took me 4 times to pass the subject, but you will ask yourself what does this have to do with Max Plack? EASY.. one of the topics of physics 3 is to study Planck' law an number and it gave such bad headaches that when I passed physics I end up loving his work an the way he did his investigations and how he virtually chaged the world we live in.\nMax Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck (April 23, 1858 \u2013 October 4, 1947 in G\u00f6ttingen, Germany)\nPlanck came from a traditional, intellectual family. His paternal great-grandfather and grandfather were both theology professors in G\u00f6ttingen, his father was a law professor in Kiel and Munich, and his paternal uncle was a judge.\nEmma and Johann Julius Wilhelm von Planck\nPlanck was born in Kiel to Johann Julius Wilhelm Planck and his second wife, Emma Patzig. He was the sixth child in the family, though two of his siblings were from his father's first marriage. Among his earliest memories was the marching of Prussian and Austrian troops into Kiel during the Danish-Prussian war 1864. In 1867 the family moved to Munich, and Planck enrolled in the K\u00f6nigliches Maximiliansgymnasium, where he came under the tutelage of Hermann M\u00fcller, a mathematician who took an interest in the youth, and taught him astronomy and mechanics as well as mathematics. It was from M\u00fcller that Planck first learned the principle of conservation of energy. Planck graduated early, at age 16.\nThe Young Max Planck\nPlanck was extremely gifted when it came to music: he took singing lessons and played the piano, organ and cello, and composed songs and operas. However, instead of music he chose to study physics.\nMunich physics professor Philipp von Jolly advised him against going into physics, saying, \"in this field, almost everything is already discovered, and all that remains is to fill a few holes.\" Planck replied that he did not wish to discover new things, only to understand the known fundamentals of the field, and began his studies in 1874 at the University of Munich. Under Jolly's supervision, Planck performed the only experiments of his scientific career, studying the diffusion of hydrogen through heated platinum, but soon transferred to theoretical physics.\nUniversity of Munich Nowadays\nIn 1877 he went to Berlin for a year of study with the famous physicists and Gustav Kirchhoff and the mathematician Karl Weierstrass. He wrote that Helmholtz was never quite prepared, spoke slowly, miscalculated endlessly, and bored his listeners, while Kirchhoff spoke in carefully prepared lectures, which were, however, dry and monotonous. Despite this he soon became close friends with Helmholtz. While there he mostly undertook a program of self-study of Clausius's writings, which led him to choose heat theory as his field.\nFile:Hermann von Helmholtz\nIn October 1878 Planck passed his qualifying exams and in February 1879 defended his dissertation, \u00dcber den zweiten Hauptsatz der mechanischen W\u00e4rmetheorie (On the second fundamental theorem of the mechanical theory of heat). He briefly taught mathematics and physics at his former school in Munich.\nIn June 1880 he presented his habilitation thesis, Gleichgewichtszust\u00e4nde isotroper K\u00f6rper in verschiedenen Temperaturen (Equilibrium states of isotropic bodies at different temperatures).\nWith the completion of his habilitation thesis, Planck became an unpaid private lecturer in Munich, waiting until he was offered an academic position. Although he was initially ignored by the academic community, he furthered his work on the field of heat theory and discovered one after the other the same thermodynamical formalism as Gibbs without realizing it. Clausius's ideas on entropy occupied a central role in his work.\nIn April 1885 the University of Kiel appointed Planck an associate professor of theoretical physics. Further work on entropy and its treatment, especially as applied in physical chemistry, followed. He proposed a thermodynamic basis for Arrhenius's theory of electrolytic dissociation.\nWithin four years he was named the successor to Kirchhoff's position at the University of Berlin \u2014 presumably thanks to Helmholtz's intercession \u2014 and by 1892 became a full professor. In 1907 Planck was offered Boltzmann's position in Vienna, but turned it down to stay in Berlin. During 1909 he was the Ernest Kempton Adams Lecturer in Theoretical Physics at Columbia University in New York City. He retired from Berlin on 10 January 1926, and was succeeded by Erwin Schr\u00f6dinger.\nIn March 1887 Planck married Marie Merck (1861\u20131909), sister of a school fellow, and moved with her into a sublet apartment in Kiel. They had four children: Karl (1888\u20131916), the twins Emma (1889\u20131919) and Grete (1889\u20131917), and Erwin (1893\u20131945).\nAfter the appointment to Berlin the Planck family lived in a villa in Berlin-Grunewald, Wangenheimstra\u00dfe 21. Several other professors of Berlin University lived nearby, among them the famous theologian Adolf von Harnack, who became a close friend of Planck. Soon the Planck home became a social and cultural centre; numerous well-known scientists, such as Albert Einstein, Otto Hahn and Lise Meitner, were frequent visitors. The tradition of jointly playing music had already been established in the home of Helmholtz.\nAfter several happy years the Planck family was struck by a series of disasters: in October 1909 Marie Planck died, possibly from tuberculosis. In March 1911 Planck married his second wife, Marga von Hoesslin (1882\u20131948); in December his third son, Herrmann, was born.\nDuring the First World War Planck's oldest son, Karl, was killed in action at Verdun, and Erwin was taken prisoner by the French in 1914. Grete died in 1917 while giving birth to her first child; her sister lost her life two years later in the same circumstances, after marrying Grete's widower. Both granddaughters survived and were named after their mothers. Planck endured all these losses with stoic submission to fate.\nIn January 1945 his youngest son, Erwin, to whom he had been particularly close, was executed by the Nazis because of his participation in the failed attempt to assassinate Hitler in July 1944.\nWives: Marie Merck (m. 1887), Marga von Hoesslin (m. 1910) Children: Karl (1888\u20131916), twins Emma (1889\u20131919) and Grete (1889\u20131917), Erwin(1893\u20131945), Herrmann (b. 1911)\nProfessor at Berlin University\nIn Berlin, Planck joined the local Physical Society. He later wrote about this time: \"In those days I was essentially the only theoretical physicist there, whence things were not so easy for me, because I started mentioning entropy, but this was not quite fashionable, since it was regarded as a mathematical spook\". Thanks to his initiative, the various local Physical Societies of Germany merged in 1898 to form the German Physical Society (Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, DPG); from 1905 to 1909 Planck was the president.\nPlanck started a six-semester course of lectures on theoretical physics, \"dry, somewhat impersonal\" according to Lise Meitner, \"using no notes, never making mistakes, never faltering; the best lecturer I ever heard\" according to an English participant, James R. Partington, who continues: \"There were always many standing around the room. As the lecture-room was well heated and rather close, some of the listeners would from time to time drop to the floor, but this did not disturb the lecture\". Planck did not establish an actual \"school\", the number of his graduate students was only about 20 altogether, among them the following: Max Abraham 1897 (1875\u20131922), Moritz Schlick 1904 (1882\u20131936), Walther Mei\u00dfner 1906 (1882\u20131974), Max von Laue 1906 (1879\u20131960), Fritz Reiche 1907 (1883\u20131960), Walter Schottky 1912 (1886\u20131976),Walther Bothe 1914 (1891\u20131957)\nPlanck's Work and Contribution to the World of Physics\nThis article shown above is a little bit difficult to understand if you don't have at least the basics knowledge of Planck's work, so if you don't even know what an Simple Harmonic Oscillator is then I strongly recommend DO NOT READ THIS, this only will get you a bad headache!!!\n\"Max Planck: the reluctant revolutionary\nFeature: December 2000\nIt was 100 years ago when Max Planck published a paper that gave birth to quantum mechanics - or so the story goes. History reveals, however, that Planck did not immediately realize the consequences of his work and became a revolutionary against his will.\nAccording to the standard story, which is unfortunately still found in many physics textbooks, quantum theory emerged when it was realized that classical physics predicts an energy distribution for black-body radiation that disagrees violently with that found experimentally. In the late 1890s, so the story continues, the German physicist Wilhelm Wien developed an expression that corresponded reasonably well with experiment - but had no theoretical foundation. When Lord Rayleigh and James Jeans then analysed black-body radiation from the perspective of classical physics, the resulting spectrum differed drastically from both experiment and the Wien law. Faced with this grave anomaly, Max Planck looked for a solution, during the course of which he was forced to introduce the notion of \"energy quanta\". With the quantum hypothesis, a perfect match between theory and experiment was obtained. Voila! Quantum theory was born.\nThe story is a myth, closer to a fairytale than to historical truth. Quantum theory did not owe its origin to any failure of classical physics, but instead to Planck's profound insight in thermodynamics.\nThe enigmatic entropy\nDuring the final years of the 19th century, many physicists found themselves discussing the validity of the mechanical world view, which until then had been taken for granted. The question at the heart of the debate was whether time-honoured Newtonian mechanics could still be held as the valid description of all of nature.\nIn these discussions, which probed the very foundations of physics, electrodynamics and thermodynamics occupied centre stage. As far as the electrodynamicists were concerned, the fundamental problem was the relationship between mechanics and electrodynamics, or between matter and the hypothetical ether. Could the laws of mechanics be reduced to electrodynamics?\nSpecialists in thermodynamics, meanwhile, focused on the relationship between the laws of mechanics and the two basic laws of heat - the principle of energy conservation and the second law of thermodynamics. This discussion looked at the status of statistical-molecular physics and therefore examined the fundamental question of whether all matter is composed of atoms. Although the two discussions had much in common, it was the latter in particular from which quantum theory emerged.\nMax Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck was deeply interested in - even obsessed with - the second law of thermodynamics. According to this law (in one of its many versions), no process is possible in which the only result is the transfer of heat from a colder to a hotter body. With the help of the concept of entropy, introduced by Rudolf Clausius in 1865, the law can be reformulated to state that the entropy of an isolated system always increases or remains constant.\nPlanck's thoughts centred on the concept of entropy and how to understand \"irreversibility\" on the basis of the absolute validity of the entropy law - the version of the second law of thermodynamics formulated in terms of the entropy concept.\nIn the 1890s the debate about the second law centred on the statistical (or probabilistic) interpretation that Ludwig Boltzmann had originally proposed back in 1872 and expanded in 1877. According to Boltzmann's molecular-mechanical interpretation, the entropy of a system is the collective result of molecular motions. The second law is valid only in a statistical sense. Boltzmann's theory, which presupposed the existence of atoms and molecules, was challenged by Wilhelm Ostwald and other \"energeticists\", who wanted to free physics from the notion of atoms and base it on energy and related quantities.\nWhat was Planck's position in this debate? One might expect that he sided with the winners, or those who soon turned out to be the winners - namely Boltzmann and the \"atomists\". But this was not the case. Planck's belief in the absolute validity of the second law made him not only reject Boltzmann's statistical version of thermodynamics but also doubt the atomic hypothesis on which it rested. As early as 1882, Planck concluded that the atomic conception of matter was irreconcilably opposed to the law of entropy increase. \"There will be a fight between these two hypotheses that will cause the life of one of them,\" he predicted. As to the outcome of the fight, he wrote that \"in spite of the great successes of the atomistic theory in the past, we will finally have to give it up and to decide in favour of the assumption of continuous matter\".\nHowever, Planck's opposition to atomism waned during the 1890s as he realized the power of the hypothesis and the unification it brought to a variety of physical and chemical phenomena. All the same, his attitude to atomism remained ambiguous and he continued to give priority to macroscopic thermodynamics and ignore Boltzmann's statistical theory. Indeed, by 1895 he was ready to embark on a major research programme to determine thermodynamic irreversibility in terms of some micro-mechanical or micro-electrodynamical model that did not explicitly involve the atomic hypothesis. The programme not only expressed Planck's deep interest in the concept of entropy, but also displayed his \"aristocratic\" attitude to physics: he focused on the fundamental aspects and disregarded more mundane, applied ideas. His fascination with entropy, which was shared by only a handful of other physicists, was not considered to be of central importance or of providing significant results. And yet it did.\nFrom the perspective of Planck and his contemporaries, it was natural to seek an explanation of the entropy law in Maxwell's electrodynamics. After all, Maxwell's theory was fundamental and was supposed to govern the behaviour of the microscopic oscillators that produced the heat radiation emitted by black bodies. Planck initially believed that he had justified the irreversibility of radiation processes through the lack of time symmetry in Maxwell's equations - i.e. that the laws of electrodynamics distinguish between past and present, between forward-going and backward-going time. However, in 1897 Boltzmann demolished this argument. Electrodynamics, Boltzmann showed, provides no more an \"arrow of time\" than mechanics. Planck had to find another way of justifying irreversibility.\nThe study of black-body radiation had begun in 1859, when Robert Kirchhoff, Planck's predecessor as professor of physics in Berlin, argued that such radiation was of a fundamental nature. By the 1890s several physicists - experimentalists and theorists - were investigating the spectral distribution of the radiation. Important progress was made in 1896 when Wien found a radiation law that was in convincing agreement with the precise measurements being performed at the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt in Berlin.\nAccording to Wien, the spectral density, u, - the radiation energy density per unit frequency - depended on the frequency, f, and temperature, T, according to the formula u(f,T) = af3exp(bf/T)-1, where a and b are constants to be determined empirically. However, Wien's law lacked a satisfactory theoretical foundation and was, for this reason, not acceptable to Planck. It is important to note that Planck's dissatisfaction was not rooted in Wien's formula - which he fully accepted - but in Wien's derivation of it. Planck was not interested in producing an empirically correct law, but in establishing a rigorous derivation of it. In this way, he believed, he would be able to justify the entropy law.\nGuided by Boltzmann's kinetic theory of gases, Planck formulated what he called a \"principle of elementary disorder\" that did not rely either on mechanics or on electrodynamics. He used it to define the entropy of an ideal oscillator (dipole) but was careful not to identify such oscillators with specific atoms or molecules. In 1899 Planck found an expression for the oscillator entropy from which Wien's law followed. The law (sometimes referred to as the Wien-Planck law) had now obtained a fundamental status. Planck was satisfied. After all, the law had the additional qualification that it agreed beautifully with measurements. Or so it was thought.\nDiscrepancy with theory\nThe harmony between theory and experiment did not last long. To Planck's consternation, experiments performed in Berlin showed that the Wien-Planck law did not correctly describe the spectrum at very low frequencies. Something had gone wrong, and Planck had to return to his desk to reconsider why the apparently fundamental derivation produced an incorrect result. The problem, it seemed to him, lay in the definition of the oscillator's entropy.\nWith a revised expression for the entropy of a single oscillator, Planck obtained a new distribution law that he presented at a meeting of the German Physical Society on 19 October 1900. The spectral distribution was now given as u(f,T) = af3[exp(bf/T) - 1]-1, which approximates Wien's law at relatively high frequencies. More interestingly, this first version of the famous Planck radiation law also agreed perfectly with the experimental spectrum in the lower-frequency infrared region. Although it included a constant b that Planck believed was fundamental, the subsequent shift from b to h was more than merely a relabelling. Planck's derivation did not make use of energy quantization and neither did it rely on Boltzmann's probabilistic interpretation of entropy.\nThose developments were to come two months later in \"an act of desperation\" as Planck later recalled. Before proceeding to this act of desperation, we need to consider the Rayleigh-Jeans law and the so-called \"ultraviolet catastrophe\", if only to discard it as historically irrelevant. In June 1900 Rayleigh pointed out that classical mechanics, when applied to the oscillators of a black body, leads to an energy distribution that increases in proportion to the square of the frequency - utterly in conflict with the data. He based his reasoning on the so-called equipartition theorem from which it follows that the average energy of the oscillators making up a black body will be given by kT, where k is Boltzmann's constant.\nFive years later, Rayleigh and Jeans presented what is still known as the Rayleigh-Jeans formula, usually written as u(f,T) = (8 pi f2/c3)kT, where c is the speed of light. The result is an energy density that keeps on increasing as the frequency gets higher and higher, becoming \"catastrophic\" in the ultraviolet region. In spite of its prominent role in physics textbooks, the formula played no part at all in the earliest phase of quantum theory. Planck did not accept the equipartition theorem as fundamental, and therefore ignored it. Incidentally, neither did Rayleigh and Jeans consider the theorem to be universally valid. The \"ultraviolet catastrophe\" - a name coined by Paul Ehrenfest in 1911 - only became a matter of discussion in a later phase of quantum theory.\nIn November 1900 Planck realized that his new entropy expression was scarcely more than an inspired guess. To secure a more fundamental derivation he now turned to Boltzmann's probabilistic notion of entropy that he had ignored for so long. But although Planck now adopted Boltzmann's view, he did not fully convert to the Austrian physicist's thinking. He remained convinced that the entropy law was absolute - and not inherently probabilistic - and therefore reinterpreted Boltzmann's theory in his own non-probabilistic way. It was during this period that he stated for the first time what has since become known as the \"Boltzmann equation\" S = k log W, which relates the entropy, S, to the molecular disorder, W.\nTo find W, Planck had to be able to count the number of ways a given energy can be distributed among a set of oscillators. It was in order to find this counting procedure that Planck, inspired by Boltzmann, introduced what he called \"energy elements\", namely the assumption that the total energy of the black-body oscillators, E, is divided into finite portions of energy, epsilon, via a process known as \"quantization\". In his seminal paper published in late 1900 and presented to the German Physical Society on 14 December - 100 years ago this month - Planck regarded the energy \"as made up of a completely determinate number of finite equal parts, and for this purpose I use the constant of nature h = 6.55 x 10-27 (erg sec)\". Moreover, he continued, \"this constant, once multiplied by the common frequency of the resonators, gives the energy element epsilon in ergs, and by division of E by epsilon we get the number P of energy elements to be distributed over the N resonators\".\nQuantum theory was born. Or was it? Surely Planck's constant had appeared, with the same symbol and roughly the same value as used today. But the essence of quantum theory is energy quantization, and it is far from evident that this is what Planck had in mind. As he explained in a letter written in 1931, the introduction of energy quanta in 1900 was \"a purely formal assumption and I really did not give it much thought except that no matter what the cost, I must bring about a positive result\". Planck did not emphasize the discrete nature of energy processes and was unconcerned with the detailed behaviour of his abstract oscillators. Far more interesting than the quantum discontinuity (whatever it meant) was the impressive accuracy of the new radiation law and the constants of nature that appeared in it.\nA conservative revolutionary\nIf a revolution occurred in physics in December 1900, nobody seemed to notice it. Planck was no exception, and the importance ascribed to his work is largely a historical reconstruction. Whereas Planck's radiation law was quickly accepted, what we today consider its conceptual novelty - its basis in energy quantization - was scarcely noticed. Very few physicists expressed any interest in the justification of Planck's formula, and during the first few years of the 20th century no one considered his results to conflict with the foundations of classical physics. As for Planck himself, he strove hard to keep his theory on the solid ground of the classical physics that he loved so much. Like Copernicus, Planck became a revolutionary against his will.\nPlanck was the archetype of the classical mind, a noble product of his time and culture. Throughout his distinguished career as a physicist and statesman of science, he maintained that the ultimate goal of science was a unified world picture built on absolute and universal laws of science. He firmly believed that such laws existed and that they reflected the inner mechanisms of nature, an objective reality where human thoughts and passions had no place. The second law of thermodynamics was always his favourite example of how a law of physics could be progressively freed from anthropomorphic associations and turned into a purely objective and universal law. After 1900 he increasingly recognized Boltzmann's probabilistic law of entropy as grand and fundamental, but he stopped short of accepting its central message, that there is a finite (if exceedingly small) probability that the entropy of an isolated system decreases over time. Only in about 1912 did he give up this last reservation and accepted the truly statistical nature of the second law.\nAs to the quantum discontinuity - the crucial feature that the energy does not vary continuously, but in \"jumps\" - he believed for a long time that it was a kind of mathematical hypothesis, an artefact that did not refer to real energy exchanges between matter and radiation. From his point of view, there was no reason to suspect a breakdown of the laws of classical mechanics and electrodynamics. That Planck did not see his theory as a drastic departure from classical physics is also illustrated by his strange silence: between 1901 and 1906 he did not publish anything at all on black-body radiation or quantum theory. Only in about 1908, to a large extent influenced by the penetrating analysis of the Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz, did Planck convert to the view that the quantum of action represents an irreducible phenomenon beyond the understanding of classical physics.\nOver the next three years Planck became convinced that quantum theory marked the beginning of a new chapter in the history of physics and, in this sense, was of a revolutionary nature. \"The hypothesis of quanta will never vanish from the world,\" he proudly declared in a lecture of 1911. \"I do not believe I am going too far if I express the opinion that with this hypothesis the foundation is laid for the construction of a theory which is someday destined to permeate the swift and delicate events of the molecular world with a new light.\"\nEinstein: the real founder of quantum theory?\nSo is December 2000 the right moment to celebrate the centenary of quantum theory? In other words, did Planck really introduce the quantum hypothesis a century ago? The historian and philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn, who carefully analysed Planck's route to the black-body radiation law and its aftermath, certainly thought Planck does not deserve the credit (see further reading).\nHowever, there is evidence both for and against Kuhn's controversial interpretation, which has been much discussed by historians of physics. There is a fairly strong case that we ought to wait a few more years before celebrating the quantum centenary. On the other hand, the case can be disputed and it is clearly not unreasonable to chose 2000 as the centenary and Planck as the father of quantum theory. Besides, there is a long tradition of assigning paternity to Planck, who, after all, received the 1918 Nobel Prize for Physics for \"his discovery of energy quanta\". Jubilees and similar celebrations enhance traditions, they do not question them.\nAs Kuhn points out, nowhere in his papers of 1900 and 1901 did Planck clearly write that the energy of a single oscillator can only attain discrete energies according to E = n epsilon= nhf, where n is an integer. If this is what he meant, why didn't he say so? And if he realized that he had introduced energy quantization - a strange, non-classical concept - why did he remain silent for more than four years? Moreover, in his Lectures on the Theory of Thermal Radiation from 1906, Planck argued for a continuum theory that made no mention of discrete oscillator energy. If he had \"seen the light\" as early as 1900 - as he later claimed - what caused him to change his mind six years later? Could the answer be that he did not change his mind because he had not seen the light?\nThese are only some of the arguments put forward by Kuhn and those historians of physics who support his case. Like historical arguments in general, the controversy over the quantum discontinuity rests on a series of evidence and counter-evidence that can only be evaluated qualitatively and as a whole, not determined in the clear-cut manner that we know from physics (or rather from some physics textbooks).\nIf Planck did not introduce the hypothesis of energy quanta in 1900, who did? Lorentz and even Boltzmann have been mentioned as candidates, but a far stronger case can be made that it was Einstein who first recognized the essence of quantum theory. Einstein's remarkable contributions to the early phase of quantum theory are well known and beyond dispute. Most famous is his 1905 theory of light quanta (or photons), but he also made important contributions in 1907 on the quantum theory of the specific heats of solids and in 1909 on energy fluctuations.\nThere is no doubt that the young Einstein saw deeper than Planck, and that Einstein alone recognized that the quantum discontinuity was an essential part of Planck's theory of black-body radiation. Whether this makes Einstein \"the true discoverer of the quantum discontinuity\", as claimed by the French historian of physics Olivier Darrigol, is another matter. What is important is that Planck's role in the discovery of quantum theory was complex and somewhat ambiguous. To credit him alone with the discovery, as is done in some physics textbooks, is much too simplistic. Other physicists, and Einstein in particular, were crucially involved in the creation of quantum theory. The \"discovery\" should be seen as an extended process and not as a moment of insight communicated on a particular day in late 1900.\nEinstein's 1907 theory of specific heats was an important element in the process that established quantum theory as a major field of physics. The changed status of quantum theory was recognized institutionally with the first Solvay conference of 1911, on \"radiation theory and the quanta\", an event that heralded the take-off phase of quantum theory. The participants in Brussels realized that with quantum theory the course of physics was about to change. Where the development would lead, nobody could tell. For example, it was not believed that quantum theory had anything to do with atomic structure. Two years later, with the advent of Niels Bohr's atomic theory, quantum theory took a new turn that eventually would lead to quantum mechanics and a new foundation of the physicists' world picture.\nThe routes of history are indeed unpredictable.\"\nTaken From http://physicsweb.org/articles/world/13/12/8/1\n* \"Pour le M\u00e9rite\" for Science and Arts 1915 (in 1930 he became chancellor of this order)\n* Nobel Prize in Physics 1918 (awarded 1919)\n* Lorentz Medal 1927\n* Adlerschild des Deutschen Reiches (1928)\n* Max Planck medal (1928, together with Einstein)\n* Planck received honorary doctorates from the universities of Frankfurt, Munich (TH), Rostock, Berlin(TH), Graz, Athens, Cambridge, London and Glasgow\n* The asteroid 1069 was given the name \"Stella Planckia\" (1938)\nThe legacy of this man work's will last forever and though physically he is not with us, there are su much things that he left such as organizations an even a there is an Max Planck Research Award for Outstanding German and Foreign scientists.

        "raw_content": "Dennis Santana (Photo: Dustin Nosler)\nBefore I kick off my Top 100 prospects for 2019 (Monday), I figured it might be interesting to look back at the past four years of rankings.\nWell, I didn\u2019t. It was actually tweeted to me as a suggestion:\nSince you started doing this, how many who were ever ranked in the 50 \u2013 100 group eventually made it to the majors and had substantial careers? Like a career fWAR > 1. Seems like that would make an interesting column unless you have already done one like that.\n\u2014 Phil Gurnee (@meercatjohn) January 17, 2019\nAfter a quick glance, I\u2019m going to have to change the criteria a bit. I\u2019ll be looking at prospects I ranked in the 51-100 range since 2015 (the first year I ranked 100 prospects) and just see which ones made the majors, because none of them have compiled an fWAR of > 1 thus far. I\u2019ll also include a few prospects who have climbed the ladder and are primed to be MLB contributors soon (or already have been).\n97. Trevor Oaks\n88. Brock Stewart\n87. Dennis Santana\n61. Blake Smith\n59. Brandon Dixon\nOaks and Stewart were both drafted in 2014, while Dixon was the Dodgers\u2019 3rd-rounder in 2013. Santana had made the transition from the infield to the mound while Smith did the same from the outfield.\nOaks made his MLB debut last season after being traded over the winter to the Royals in the Scott Alexander deal. He pitched in 13 2/3 innings and posted an ugly 7.23 ERA. But his 3.97 FIP gives some hope for him going forward. (Disclaimer: It\u2019s a small sample size). He has been worth 0.2 wins so far.\nStewart has been up-and-down with the Dodgers after flashing some potential in 2016. He has logged 80 innings in parts of three season with the Dodgers. He has a 4.84 ERA, 5.50 FIP and a -0.5 WAR. He\u2019s out of options and could find himself on the waiver wire before too long. I still think there\u2019s some potential in his arm, but not nearly what I (and others) thought a few years ago.\nSantana debuted in 2018 in Colorado. He got lit up a bit \u2014 5 runs in 3 2/3 innings \u2014 but he also struck out four, walked just one and even went 1-for-2 at the plate with a 2-run double. He has been worth 0.1 WAR both on the mound and at the plate and as long as he\u2019s OK after missing the rest of the season with a sore shoulder, the future is bright for this young man.\nSmith appeared in five games for the White Sox in 2016 and pitched to a 6.38 FIP and a -0.1 WAR. He has since retired.\nDixon was traded in the deal that brought Micah Johnson, Frankie Montas and Trayce Thompson to the Dodgers in the winter of 2015. He debuted with the Reds in 2018 and hit just .178/.218/.356 over 124 plate appearances. That amounted to a -0.2 WAR. He was picked up by the Tigers this winter.\n87. O\u2019Koyea Dickson\n71. Keibert Ruiz\n62. Edwin Rios\n55. Josh Ravin\nDickson was the Dodgers\u2019 12th-rounder back in 2011. He ranked higher than this before finding himself in the back-half of the Top 100. Ruiz had just signed out of Venezuela and made a solid impression in his professional debut. He hasn\u2019t made the majors yet, but he\u2019s one of the Top 2-3 prospects in the system and some think he\u2019s the best catching prospect in the game. Rios was the Dodgers\u2019 6th-rounder in 2015, while Ravin was signed as a minor-league free agent.\nDickson debuted in 2017. He went 1-for-7 in his nine plate appearances, good for a -0.1 WAR. He had a short stint in NPB last season and is currently a free agent.\nRuiz and Rios were both added to the Dodgers\u2019 40-man roster this winter, so their MLB debuts could come as soon as this summer.\nRavin debuted for the Dodgers in 2015 and brought with him a legitimate high-90s fastball \u2026 and not much else. He got suspended for performance-enhancing drugs in 2016. In all, he logged 38 2/3 innings as an MLBer (all but 3 innings came as a Dodger). He has a career 5.12 ERA, 5.22 FIP and -0.4 WAR. He spent 2018 in the Braves\u2019 organization (after being traded there the previous winter) and signed a contract with NPB\u2019s Chiba Lotte Marines last week.\n87. Tony Gonsolin\n86. Tim Locastro\nThe more recent you get, the fewer players there are (and there are none from 2018 to qualify for this \u2026 yet). Gonsolin was the Dodgers\u2019 9th-round pick in 2016, while Locastro was acquired in July 2015 as part of the Chase De Jong trade.\nGonsolin has done nothing but improve his stock since turning pro. A breakout 2017 led to a breakout 2018 season. He could see LA this summer if he handles Double- and Triple-A well.\nLocastro had a couple of stints that saw him play the role of (mostly) pinch-runner. He went 2-for-12 in 15 plate appearances with six runs scored and four stolen bases. The infielder/outfielder has a career 0.1 WAR. He was traded to the Yankees earlier this offseason before getting shipped to the Diamondbacks (after being DFA\u2019d) earlier this week.\nThis was a pretty nice little exercise. It\u2019ll be something to revisit in a couple years to see if there are any other players who have made a name for themselves or if any of the newer rankees have surprised like some of the prospects above.\nPrevious 2019 Dodgers Top 100 Prospects: Introduction\nNext Dodgers rumors: A.J.

        "title": "Astronaut John Glenn, First American to Orbit Earth",
        "raw_content": "Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, First Human and Russian to Orbit Earth\nIn the Race to Space during the 1950s, two men played key roles. John Glenn and Yuri Gagarin became heroes of their respective countries, the United States and the Soviet Union. While America and Russia had much different governing systems, democracy and communism, their spacemen were much alike. Read the Wikipedia biographies and list how each man was similar. Next, author a one page paper discussing these likenesses.\nYuri Gagarin was born in the village of Klushino near Gzhatsk (now in Smolensk Oblast, Russia), on 9 March 1934. The adjacent town of Gzhatsk was renamed Gagarin in 1968 in his honour. His parents, Alexey Ivanovich Gagarin and Anna Timofeyevna Gagarina, worked on a collective farm. While manual labourers are described in official reports as \"peasants\", this may be an oversimplification if applied to his parents \u2014 his mother was reportedly a voracious reader, and his father a skilled carpenter. Yuri was the third of four children, and his elder sister helped raise him while his parents worked. Like millions of people in the Soviet Union, the Gagarin family suffered during Nazi occupation in World War II. His two elder siblings were deported to Nazi Germany for slave labour in 1943, and did not return until after the war. While a youth, Yuri became interested in space and planets, and began to dream about his space tour which would one day become a reality. Yuri was described by his teachers in the Moscow satellite town of Lyubertsy as intelligent and hard-working, if occasionally mischievous. His mathematics and science teacher had flown in the Soviet Air Forces during the war, which presumably made some substantial impression on young Gagarin.\nAfter starting an apprenticeship in a metalworks\nas a foundryman, Gagarin was selected for further training at a technical high school in Saratov. While there, he joined the \"AeroClub\", and learned to fly a light aircraft, a hobby that would take up an increasing proportion of his time. In 1955, after completing his technical schooling, he entered military flight training at the Orenburg Pilot's School. While there he met Valentina Goryacheva, whom he married in 1957, after gaining his pilot's wings in a MiG-15. Post-graduation, he was assigned to Luostari airbase in Murmansk Oblast, close to the Norwegian border, where terrible weather made flying risky. As a full-grown man, Gagarin was 1.57 metres (5 ft 2 in) tall, which was an advantage in the small Vostok cockpit. He became Lieutenant of the Soviet Air Force on 5 November 1957 and on 6 November 1959 he received the rank of Senior Lieutenant.\nGagarin kept physically fit throughout his life, and was a keen sportsman. fan, and coached the Saratov Industrial Technical School team, as well as being an umpire/referee.\nCareer in the Soviet space program\nIn 1960, after the search and selection process, Yuri Gagarin was selected with 19 other cosmonauts for the Soviet space program. Along with the other prospective cosmonauts, he was subjected to experiments designed to test his physical and psychological endurance; he also underwent training for the upcoming flight. Out of the twenty selected, the eventual choices for the first launch were Gagarin and Gherman Titov because of their performance in training, as well as their physical characteristics \u2014 space was at a premium in the small Vostok cockpit and both men were rather short.\nMain article: Vostok 1\nOn 12 April 1961, Gagarin became the first man to travel into space, launching to orbit aboard the Vostok 3KA-3 (Vostok 1\n). His call sign in this flight was Kedr (Cedar; Russian: \u041a\u0435\u0434\u0440). During his flight, Gagarin famously whistled the tune \"The Motherland Hears, The Motherland Knows\" (Russian: \"\u0420\u043e\u0434\u0438\u043d\u0430 \u0441\u043b\u044b\u0448\u0438\u0442, \u0420\u043e\u0434\u0438\u043d\u0430 \u0437\u043d\u0430\u0435\u0442\"). The first two lines of the song are: \"The Motherland hears, the Motherland knows/Where her son flies in the sky\". This patriotic song was written by Dmitri Shostakovich in 1951 (opus 86), with words by Yevgeniy Dolmatovsky.\nAround the same time, some Western sources claimed that Gagarin, during his space flight, had made the comment, \"I don't see any God up here.\" However, no such words appear in the verbatim record of Gagarin's conversations with the Earth during the spaceflight. In a 2006 interview a close friend of Gagarin, Colonel Valentin Petrov, stated that Gagarin never said such words, and that the phrase originated from Nikita Khrushchev's speech at the plenum of the Central Committee of the CPSU, where the anti-religious propaganda was discussed. In a certain context Khrushchev said, \"Gagarin flew into space, but didn't see any God there\". Colonel Petrov also said that Gagarin had been baptised into the Orthodox Church as a child.\nFame and later life\nAfter the flight, Gagarin became a worldwide celebrity, touring widely with appearances in Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, and Japan to promote the Soviet achievement.\nIn 1962, he began serving as a deputy to the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union. He later returned to Star City, the cosmonaut facility, where he worked on designs for a reusable spacecraft. Gagarin worked on these designs in Star City for seven years. He became Lieutenant Colonel (or Podpolkovnik) of the Soviet Air Force on 12 June 1962 and on 6 November 1963 he received the rank of Colonel (Polkovnik\n) of the Soviet Air Force.[3] Soviet officials tried to keep him away from any flights, being worried of losing their hero in an accident. Gagarin was backup pilot for Vladimir Komarov in the Soyuz 1 flight. As Komarov's flight ended in a fatal crash, Gagarin was ultimately banned from training for and participating in further spaceflights.\nGagarin then became deputy training director of the Star City cosmonaut training base. At the same time, he began to re-qualify as a fighter pilot. On 27 March 1968, while on a routine training flight from Chkalovsky Air Base, he and flight instructor Vladimir Seryogin died in a MiG-15UTI crash near the town of Kirzhach. Gagarin and Seryogin were buried in the walls of the Kremlin on Red Square.\nIt is not certain what caused the crash, but a 1986 inquest suggests that the turbulence from a Su-11 'Fishpot-C' interceptor using its afterburners may have caused Gagarin's plane to go out of control.\nRussian documents declassified in March 2003 showed that the KGB had conducted their own investigation of the accident, in addition to one government and two military investigations. The KGB's report dismissed various conspiracy theories, instead indicating that the actions of air base personnel contributed to the crash. The report states that an air traffic controller provided Gagarin with outdated weather information, and that by the time of his flight, conditions had deteriorated significantly. Ground crew also left external fuel tanks attached to the aircraft. Gagarin's planned flight activities needed clear weather and no outboard tanks. The investigation concluded that Gagarin's aircraft entered a spin, either due to a bird strike or because of a sudden move to avoid another aircraft. Because of the out-of-date weather report, the crew believed their altitude to be higher than it actually was, and could not properly react to bring the MiG-15 out of its spin.\nIn his 2004 book Two Sides of the Moon, Alexey Leonov recounts that he was flying a helicopter in the same area that day when he heard \"two loud booms in the distance.\" Corroborating other theories, his conclusion is that a Sukhoi jet (which he identifies as a Su-15 'Flagon') was flying below its minimum allowed altitude, and \"without realizing it because of the terrible weather conditions, he passed within 10 or 20 meters of Yuri and Seregin's plane while breaking the sound barrier.\" The resulting turbulence would have sent the MiG into an uncontrolled spin. Leonov believes the first boom he heard was that of the jet breaking the sound barrier, and the second was Gagarin's plane crashing.\nA new theory, advanced by the original crash investigator in 2005, hypothesizes that a cabin air vent was accidentally left open by the crew or the previous pilot, leading to oxygen deprivation and leaving the crew incapable of controlling the aircraft.\nJohn Glenn was born in Cambridge, Ohio, to John Herschel Glenn and his wife Teresa (n\u00e9e Sproat). He was raised in New Concord, Ohio. Glenn studied chemistry at Muskingum College, and received his private pilot's license as physics course credit in 1941. When the attack on Pearl Harbor brought the United States into World War II, he dropped out of college and enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Corps. However, the Army did not call him up, and in March 1942 he enlisted as a United States Navy aviation cadet. He trained at Naval Air Station Olathe, where he made his first solo flight in a military aircraft. In 1943, during advanced training at the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, he was reassigned to the United States Marine Corps.[2] After completing his training, Glenn was assigned to Marine squadron VMJ-353, flying R4D transport planes. He eventually managed a transfer to VMF-155 as an F4U Corsair pilot, and flew 59 combat missions in the South Pacific.[3] He saw action over the Marshall Islands, where he attacked anti-aircraft batteries and dropped bombs on Maloelap. In 1945, he was assigned to Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland, where he was promoted to captain shortly before the war ended.\nFollowing the war, Glenn flew patrol missions in North China with VMF-218, until his squadron was transferred to Guam. He became a flight instructor at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, Texas in 1948, then attended the amphibious warfare school and received a staff assignment.\nGlenn was next assigned to VMF-311, flying the new F9F Panther jet interceptor. He flew his Panther in 63 combat missions during the Korean War, gaining the dubious nickname \"magnet butt\" from his apparent ability to attract enemy flak. Twice he returned to base with over 250 flak holes in his aircraft. Glenn flew for a time with Ted Williams, a future hall of fame baseball player for the Boston Red Sox, as his wingman.\nGlenn flew a second Korean combat tour on an interservice exchange program with the United States Air Force. He logged 27 missions in the faster F-86F Sabre, and shot down three MiG-15s near the Yalu River in the final days before the cease fire.\nGlenn returned to Naval Air Station Patuxent River, appointed to the Test Pilot School (class 12). He served as an armament officer, flying planes to high altitude and testing their cannons and machine guns. On July 16, 1957, Glenn completed the first supersonic transcontinental flight in a Vought F8U-1 Crusader. The flight from NAS Los Alamitos, California to Floyd Bennett Field, New York took 3 hours, 23 minutes and 8.4 seconds.\nAs he passed over his hometown, a child in the neighborhood reportedly ran to the Glenn house shouting \"Johnny dropped a bomb! Johnny dropped a bomb! Johnny dropped a bomb!\" as the sonic boom shook the town. Project Bullet, the name of the mission, included both the first transcontinental flight to average supersonic speed (despite three in-flight re-fuelings during which speeds dropped below 300 mph), and the first continuous transcontinental panoramic photograph of the United States. Glenn received his fifth Distinguished Flying Cross for the mission.\nMedical debriefing aboard USS Randolph (CVS-15). The debriefing team for Maj. Glenn (center) was led by Cmdr. Seldon C. \"Smokey\" Dunn, USN MC (far right w/EKG in hands).\nIn April 1959, despite the fact that Glenn had not earned the required college degree, he was assigned to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as one of the original group of Mercury astronauts for the Mercury Project. During this time, he remained an officer in the Marine Corps. He became the fifth person in space and the first American to orbit the Earth, aboard Friendship 7 on February 20, 1962 [6], on the \"Mercury Atlas 6\" mission, circling the globe three times during a flight lasting 4 hours, 55 minutes, and 23 seconds. During the mission there was concern that his heat shield had failed and that his craft would burn up on re-entry, but he made his splashdown safely. Glenn was celebrated as a national hero, and received a ticker-tape parade reminiscent of Lindbergh. His fame and political attributes were noted by the Kennedys, and he became a personal friend of the Kennedy family.\nIn July 1962, Glenn testified before the House Space Committee in favor of excluding women from the NASA astronaut program. The impact of such testimony, from so prestigious a national hero, is debatable, but no female astronaut flew on a NASA mission until Sally Ride in 1983, and none piloted a mission until Eileen Collins in 1995, more than thirty years after the hearings.\nGlenn resigned from NASA six weeks after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to run for office in his home state of Ohio. In 1965, Glenn retired as a Colonel from the USMC and entered the business world as an executive for Royal Crown Cola. He reentered politics later on. Some accounts of Glenn's years at NASA suggest that Glenn was prevented from flying in Gemini or Apollo missions, either by President Kennedy, himself, or by NASA management, on the grounds that the subsequent loss of a national hero of such stature would seriously harm or even end the manned space program. Yet Glenn resigned from the astronaut corps on January 30, 1964, well before even the first Gemini crew was assigned.\nThree decades later, after serving 24 years in the Senate, Glenn lifted off for a second space flight on October 29, 1998, on Space Shuttle Discovery's STS-95, in order to study the effects of space flight on the elderly. At age 77, Glenn became the oldest person ever to go into space. Glenn's participation in the nine-day mission was criticized by some in the space community as a junket for a politician. Others noted that Glenn's flight offered valuable research on weightlessness and other aspects of space flight on the same person at two points in life thirty-six years apart \u2014 by far the longest interval between space flights by the same person \u2014 providing information on the effects of spaceflight and weightlessness on the elderly, with an ideal control. Upon the safe return of the STS-95 crew, Glenn (and his crewmates) received another ticker-tape parade, making him the tenth, and latest person to have received multiple ticker-tape parades in a lifetime (as opposed to that of a sports team).\nGlenn vehemently opposed the sending of Dennis Tito, the world's first space tourist, to the International Space Station on the grounds that Tito's trip served no scientific purpose.\nThe NASA John H. Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field in Cleveland, Ohio is named after him. Also, Senator John Glenn Highway runs along a stretch of I-480 (Ohio) across from the NASA Glenn Research Center. Colonel Glenn Highway, which runs by Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Wright State University near Dayton, Ohio, and John Glenn High School in his hometown of New Concord, Ohio, and Col. John Glenn Elementary in Seven Hills, Ohio were named for him as well.\nIn 1964, John Glenn announced that he was resigning from the space program to run against incumbent Senator Stephen M. Young in the Democratic primary, but he was forced to withdraw when he hit his head on a bathtub. He sustained a concussion and injured his inner ear. Recovery left him unable to campaign at that time.\nGlenn remained close to the Kennedy family and was with Sen. Robert F. Kennedy when Kennedy was assassinated.\nIn 1970, Glenn contested for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate; Glenn was defeated in the primary by fellow Democrat Howard Metzenbaum, who went on to lose the general election race to Robert Taft Jr. In the bitterly fought 1974 Democratic primary rematch, Glenn defeated Metzenbaum, who had earlier been appointed by Ohio governor John J. Gilligan to fill out the Senate term of William B. Saxbe, who had resigned to become U.S. attorney general. Metzenbaum was running to retain the seat to which he had been appointed. In the 1974 general election, Glenn defeated Republican Mayor of Cleveland, Ralph Perk, beginning a Senate career that would continue until 1999. Metzenbaum won Ohio's other Senate seat by defeating Taft in 1976. In 1980, Glenn won re-election to the seat, defeating Republican challenger Jim Betts, by over 40 percent(68.8%-28.2%). In 1986, Glenn defeated challenger U.S. Representative Tom Kindness.\nGlenn was one of the five U. S. Senators caught up in the Lincoln Savings and Keating Five Scandal after accepting a $200,000 contribution from Charles Keating. Glenn and Republican Senator John McCain were the only Senators exonerated. The Senate Commission found that Glenn had exercised \"poor judgment.\" The association of his name with the scandal gave Republicans hope that he would be vulnerable in the 1992 campaign. Instead, Glenn defeated Lieutenant Governor R. Michael DeWine to keep his seat, though his percentage was reduced to a career low of 51%. This 1992 re-election victory was the last time a Democrat won a statewide race in Ohio until 2006; DeWine later won Metzenbaum's seat upon his retirement.\nIn 1998, Glenn declined to run for re-election. The Democratic party chose Mary Boyle to replace him, but she was defeated by then-Ohio Gov. George Voinovich.\nIn 1976, Glenn was a candidate for the Democratic vice presidential nomination. However, Glenn's keynote address at the Democratic National Convention failed to impress the delegates and the nomination went to veteran politician Walter Mondale. Glenn also mounted a bid to be the 1984 Democratic Presidential candidate. Early on, Glenn polled well, coming in a strong second to Mondale. It was also surmised that he would be aided by the almost-simultaneous release of The Right Stuff, a film about the original seven Mercury astronauts in which it was generally agreed that Glenn's character was portrayed (by actor Ed Harris) in an appealing manner. However, Glenn thought it would be bad form to capitalize on this kind of publicity, and didn't make much of these achievements in the period leading up to the Iowa caucuses. Media attention turned to Mondale, Gary Hart, and Jesse Jackson, and by the time his campaign started playing up The Right Stuff for the New Hampshire primary, it was already too late. His failed 1984 presidential bid left Glenn with over $3 million in campaign debt for over 20 years before he was granted a reprieve by the Federal Election Commission.\nOn June 21, 2010, Glenn is on record as stating that he questions the United States' plan to retire their fleet of space shuttles and rely on Russia to take U.S. astronauts to the International Space Station.\nOn April 6, 1943, Glenn married his childhood sweetheart, Anna Margaret Castor. They had met in New Concord and played together in the school band. They are the parents of two children. Both Glenn and his wife attended Muskingum College in New Concord, Ohio.\nGlenn is member of the Glenn\u2013Macintosh clan of Scotland. In 1963, Glenn received a letter from a young girl in Sheffield, England, named Anne Glenn. The letter, congratulating him on his orbit around the Earth, enclosed a family tree showing that Anne's father, George Arthur Thomas Glenn, and John Glenn were cousins. The Glenn family is still growing in Scotland to this day.\nGlenn was a member of Demolay International, the Masonic youth organization, and is an ordained elder in the Presbyterian Church.\nOn August 4, 2006, Glenn and his wife were injured in an automobile accident on I-270 near Columbus, Ohio. They were released from the hospital two days later. Glenn suffered a fractured sternum and a \"very sore chest\", as he remarked. Annie Glenn was treated for minor injuries. Glenn was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way.\nOn September 5, 2009, John and Annie Glenn dotted the \"i\" during The Ohio State University's Script Ohio marching band performance, at the Ohio State versus Navy football game halftime show. Bob Hope, Woody Hayes, Buster Douglas, Dr. E. Gordon Gee, Novice Fawcett, Robert Ries and Jack Nicklaus are the only other non-band members to receive this honor.\nOn May 23, 2010, Glenn was awarded an honorary Doctoral degree in Public Service during the 2010 Commencement ceremony at Ohio Northern University.\nTo commemorate the 50th anniversary of John Glenn's orbital flight a folk song is on youtube.

As you read the article the design of the drug is to ensure you don\u2019t lose any painkilling ability of the Opioid drug. I didn\u2019t even know that was a side effect of taking a drug to relieve constipation if one were taking an Opioid. Guess the ones off the shelf are not as good anymore?\nThe drug is due to release the first quarter of 2015 and was first approved to treat severely ill patients receiving palliative care where the off the shelf remedies did not provide relief. The drug is not for patients being treated for cancer. BD\n(Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved an oral therapy to treat opioid-induced constipation developed by Nectar Therapeutics and AstraZeneca Plc .\nThe decision opens the door for peripherally acting mu opioid receptor antagonists, which have been linked with cardiovascular risk in the past.\nThis class of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) drugs are designed to fight the effects of opioid painkillers on the gut without compromising centrally mediated pain relief.\nThe agency on Tuesday asked the developers to conduct a postmarketing study to further evaluate the potential risk of heart-related side-effects.\n\"If you look at the way they structured the deal with Nektar, clearly they think this is a multi-billion dollar drug,\" he said.\nhttp://www.reuters.com/article/2014/09/16/astrazeneca-fda-idUSL3N0RG4TT20140916",

        "title": "Magnitude 6.7 Earthquake Shakes Ecuador - Earthquake Kit Guide",
        "raw_content": "Earthquake Kit Guide > Blog > General > Magnitude 6.7 Earthquake Shakes Ecuador\nA magnitude 6.7 earthquake hit Ecuador Wednesday morning near where a devastating magnitude 7.8 earthquake hit just last month killing hundreds of people. This time the epicenter was 35 kilometers (21 miles) from the town of Muisne.\nThe quake triggered a national disaster alert which was later deactivated a few hours later after local authorities reported that the situation was calm. There was no report of significant damage and no reports of any deaths. There were a few injuries reported but those were mainly from those who tripped and fell in the dark as people scrambled out of bed.\nThis quake is considered an aftershock from the much bigger magnitude 7.8 earthquake that was one of Ecuador\u2019s worst disasters for nearly seven decades where it killed more than 650 people and injured over 16,600.\nPresident Rafael Correa said \u201cThese sort of aftershocks are normal but that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re not scary and can cause damage\u201d. Aftershocks of this magnitude are normal for up to two months after a major quake and the area has actually felt at least 5 of them so far.\nThis goes to show that just because an earthquake struck, you\u2019re not \u201csafe\u201d from another one for awhile. Many people have the misconception that since the energy is released, they won\u2019t have to worry about earthquakes for awhile. The best thing to do is ALWAYS be prepared. It only takes a short time to get an earthquake kit but can pay off big time in the event of an emergency.\nLearn How to be Prepared and What to Do Before, During, and After an Earthquake\nEarthquakes are interesting. An aftershock occurring a month after the main shaker on a geological timeline is pretty much \u201cimmediately.\u201d But what I think about is maybe the main on 30 days ago, and this \u201caftershock\u201d might not yet be the main attraction. Maybe the Big One is yet to come.\nYeah, that\u2019s the scary thing. You never know whether it\u2019s truly an aftershock or a foreshock. Let\u2019s hope it is an aftershock for the sake of the people in Ecuador.\nRoger May 18, 2016 at 7:21 am\nThat must be very upsetting to people living in that area!\nI knew aftershocks were common, but never realized they could occur up to 2 months after an earthquake. I\u2019m actually happy I DIDN\u2019T know that when I lived in San Francisco \u2014 I would have been nervous for a lot longer!\nEarthquakes are always a bit unsettling, especially since you really have no control over what to do during them. There were news reports advising people to \u201csnap their fingers\u201d to stop a quake. They admitted it had no real effect, but the part of your brain that generates the greatest amount of fear doesn\u2019t know that!\nLuckily your advice is the best: always be prepared!\nThanks Roger! Yeah sometimes \u201cignorance is bliss\u201d but in the case of preparedness it definitely isn\u2019t. You should always be prepared and know the dangers of earthquakes. Being unprepared can be costly and sometimes deadly.\nOMG i hope everyone is ok. this is shocking\nYeah two times in the same area in a month. I feel for those affected as they\u2019re probably scared and wondering whether there\u2019ll be another one. Living in fear is not fun.\nAbdul Athar May 18, 2016 at 7:55 am\nThe Post speaking about the Earthquake get me fear itself but Provide me good knowledge how and what to do and happening the world and getting prepare for un expect happening will provide inner strength to fight with, the post is simple and very well framed and nice keep it up\nThanks a lot Abdul. I try to inform the public about the dangers of earthquake and the importance of preparedness to keep more people safe. Feel free to spread the word.",

        "raw_content": "Five new San Diego Teachers of the Year announced\nSpecial to the East County Californian Wed September 20, 2017\nFive local educators were named San Diego County Teachers of the Year on Saturday night during the 27th annual \u201cCox Presents: A Salute to Teachers,\u201d sponsored by San Diego County Credit Union (SDCCU) in partnership with the San Diego County Office of Education (SDCOE).\nThe 2017-18 San Diego County Teachers of the Year are:\nJaime Brown, San Diego High School of International Studies, San Diego Unified School District\nCamden Flores, Kempton Street Literacy Academy, La Mesa-Spring Valley School District\nMark Lantsberger, Del Norte High School, Poway Unified School District\nBen Swearingen, Imperial Beach Charter School, South Bay Union School District\nKathy Worley, West Hills High School, Grossmont Union School District\n\u201cEach of the 2017-18 San Diego County Teachers of the Year is unique, and exceptionally talented,\u201d said County Superintendent of Schools Dr. Paul Gothold. \u201cGet to know this diverse group, however, and you\u2019ll find the teachers share a couple of common traits: connecting with and compassion for students.\u201d\nThe annual Academy Awards-style show \u2013 which was broadcast live from the Balboa Theatre \u2013 celebrates San Diego County\u2019s 22,000 public school teachers, with a spotlight on 44 Teacher of the Year nominees representing districts around San Diego County. The 2017-18 County Teachers of the Year were selected from among those 44, who were nominated by their districts for their unwavering commitment to students, teaching, and lifelong learning.\nThe field was narrowed to 10 finalists. The finalists were selected based on student achievement, professional development and community involvement, teaching philosophy, knowledge of current issues in education, promotion and development of the teaching profession, accountability, and ability to serve as ambassadors of education.\nThe five Teachers of the Year will represent San Diego County in the California Teacher of the Year program. The state winners will be announced later this fall. Since 1974, 166 teachers have been named San Diego County Teacher of the Year. Of those, 21 were named California Teacher of the Year and three went on to be named National Teacher of the Year. Megan Gross, a San Diego County and California Teacher of the Year, was one of four national finalists for 2016-17.\nCamden Flores teaches kindergarten at Kempton Street Literacy Academy, a dual-immersion school in the La Mesa-Spring Valley School District. Flores, a 20-year teaching veteran, is passionate about helping disadvantaged families navigate the education system. She had a troubled upbringing herself, and found school a difficult. Flores works hard to create a welcoming environment for students in the high-poverty community where she teaches. She reaches out to every child, every day to make a connection, whether it\u2019s with a hello, a joke, a high five, or a hug. \u201cI often share my own failures, from my childhood and present, and the kids love these stories. Making connections creates compassion.\u201d Flores wants her students to leave kindergarten with a love of learning that she never had as a child. Bancroft Elementary Principal Kimberly Libenguth said Flores has the ability to motivate the unmotivated. \u201cShe is the type of teacher all students should have at least once in their lifetime,\u201d Libenguth said.\nExcellence is habit for Kathy Worley, according to her West Hills High School principal. The excellence habit shows in the five different Career Technical Education classes she teaches, in her award-winning athletic coaching experience, and in her collaborative nature with colleagues. \u201cMy job is to build on students\u2019 experiences and guide them to a level that will give them a sense of accomplishment along with a set of skills to assist them in a career,\u201d said Worley. She found her way to the industrial arts by accident. She had dreamed of being a doctor, but connected with woodshop after a summer school mix-up landed her there instead of in a swim class. Now, after 28 years, she can\u2019t imagine doing anything else. Her woodshop and manufacturing students apply what they\u2019ve learned in other classes to sketch, measure, calculate distances, and express themselves through their woodworking projects. Her students are well aware of Worley\u2019s commitment to excellence, and to them. \u201cShe is truly one of our heroes,\u201d wrote students Braxton Dyke and Paolo Ballarin. \u201cShe promotes us to be the best we can be. Many of us look up to her; even on the darkest days her classroom brings some light.\u201d\nJaime Brown has spent her 14-year teaching career at San Diego High School of International Studies in the San Diego Unified School District. She teaches International Baccalaureate Higher Level English and Film Studies. Brown views her primary job as \u201cempowering my students with the tools and confidence they need to effectively navigate these courses on their own two feet.\u201d Principal Carmen Garcia said Brown\u2019s classroom practices \u201care alive with enriching collaborative conversations where students transform into experts on English literature.\u201d A classroom environment that is also comfortable and positive for her students is important to Brown, a San Diego High alumna. \u201cIn a world filled with uncertainty and doubt, we need compassion to prevail in the classroom,\u201d Brown said.\nMark Lantsberger says his computer science classes are \u201call about patterns and the human journey through time with art, mathematics, and the drive to make sense of the reality of our surroundings.\u201d Lantsberger has spent the past three of his 19-year teaching career at Del Norte High School. You can spot him in an instant: He\u2019s the one sporting the Mohawk, a hairstyle not often seen in the suburban Poway Unified School District. It\u2019s not the only characteristic that stands out. Lantsberger took what he calls the crooked path to teaching math and computer science. He was a musician who discovered that math was \u201cawesome\u201d when he returned to college after giving music lessons, playing in bands, and working as a paint manufacturer. At Del Norte, Lantsberger has built a computer science program from scratch that \u201cfar exceeds anything we had expected or previously imagined,\u201d Principal Greg Mizel said. Calling Lantsberger \u201cresourceful, extraordinarily creative, tenacious and a gifted math student in his own right,\u201d Mizel said this \u201cuncommonly dedicated\u201d teacher naturally engages his students in critical thinking and problem solving.\u201d\nIn Ben Swearingen\u2019s 5th-grade classroom at Imperial Beach Charter School, challenges become opportunities. His classroom is a place open to all, a safe zone for respectfully exploring ideas, the self, nature, community, and the world. \u201cMaking students feel welcome as who they are and with what they bring to the classroom is the foundation for effective education,\u201d Swearingen said. \u201cOnce a person feels accepted and valued, they are open to learning, creativity, and risk taking.\u201d Swearingen has taken on leadership roles over his 12-year teaching career, inspiring and collaborating with students, colleagues, parents, and administrators. Compassionate and dedicated, he is a \u201ctrue believer in the power of teamwork,\u201d said Principal Melissa Griffith. His passion for gardening led to a school garden, which serves as an outdoor learning lab. For Swearingen, teaching isn\u2019t a call; it\u2019s a \u201ccall of duty, a sense of moral obligation to do my part to make the world a better place.\u201d\nThe County Teacher of the Year honor also includes five finalists: Christopher Burrows, Potter Junior High School, Fallbrook Union Elementary School District; Stephanie Cruz, 37ECB, San Diego County Office of Education; James Fieberg, Sage Creek High School, Carlsbad Unified School District; Rachel Mednick, Rosebank Elementary School, Chula Vista Elementary School District; and Susan Moynihan, Madison Middle School, Vista Unified School District.\nReplays of the \u201cCox Presents: A Salute to Teachers\u201d telecast on Cox and Charter Cable YurView Channel 4/1004 are scheduled for 9 p.m. Sept. 17, Sept. 23, Sept. 28, Oct. 6, Oct. 12, Oct. 20, Oct. 26.

        "raw_content": "La Mesa Historical Society holds annual meeting with forward-looking enthusiasm\nBJ Coleman Wed June 21, 2017\nVolunteer organizations that are dedicated to preservation of historical information and artifacts plainly honor events in retrospect. But times change.\nSo, how to rectify that tension between respecting the past while acknowledging current perspectives and practices? The La Mesa Historical Society is striving to be up-to-date on how to be preservationists who keep accurate records of the history of La Mesa and enlist support in those efforts, by using modern methods of social interaction and media communication.\nThe group\u2019s annual meeting on June 16, at the Nan Couts Cottage on the La Mesa Community Center grounds. This was the first of the organization\u2019s yearly meetings to begin with a festive and fun light meal and hosted bar featuring local wines and beers. President Jim Newland said that, perhaps not surprisingly, although the society\u2019s prior Saturday afternoon gatherings had attracted around 20 participants tops, this meeting had already attracted more than double that number to attend.\nAs he welcomed attendees to open the business portion of the meeting as outgoing president, Newland noted wryly that some local preservation organizations recently have opted to dub themselves as \u201chistory center\u201d instead of keeping to the usage of \u201chistorical society.\u201d Newland further observed, \u201cHere in La Mesa, we are recognizing traditions that honor the heritage of our community.\u201d\nWith a nod toward incoming President Ken D\u2019Angelo, Newland said, \u201cWe are bringing in new blood, which every service organization needs to do, because we have different specialties. This is a good group coming in.\u201d D\u2019Angelo, together with a new slate of society officers, was set to be elected by member vote that night.\nLa Mesa City Councilmember Kristine Alessio joined Newland at the podium for presentation of 2017 awards. Allesio is also a member of the historical society. The \u201cHistory Maker\u201d of the Year award went to Aaron Dean, developer of Sheldon\u2019s Service Station, a breakfast and lunch eatery, and Boulevard Noodles, an Asian fusion dining spot, for his \u201cpositive influence\u201d in remaking landmark La Mesa locations for new purposes. The La Mesa Historical Society Sponsor/Business of the Year was \u201cthe oldest, longest serving business in the community, La Mesa Lumber and Hardware, clocking in at an impressive 110 years of providing \u201cgreat community service.\u201d La Mesa Historic Preservationists of the Year were James and Charlene Craig, for restoration of the Frost house. And the La Mesa Historical Society Volunteer of the Year award was bestowed with pride to longtime volunteer Melody Andrews, who has proven \u201cextremely dedicated\u201d to the society\u2019s preservation efforts.\nMembership in the nonprofit society is available at various levels, from individual member status at $20 yearly, to a lifetime membership priced at $1,000 and over. The society\u2019s McKinney House Museum and Archives are open on afternoons 1-4 p.m. every second and fourth Saturday of the month at 8369 University Avenue and by appointment, especially for group tours.

        "raw_content": "Alberto Ascari Italy\nFull name Alberto Ascari\nDate of death May 26, 1955 (36 years 317 days)\nPlace of death Monza, Italy\nRelation Father - A Ascari\nTeams Ferrari, Lancia, Maserati\n1952 Ferrari 7 7 6 6 6 1 5 6 1 6 5 53.5 1\n1954 Maserati, Ferrari, Lancia 4 4 0 0 0 - 1 3 1 2 0 1.14 25\n1955 Lancia 2 2 0 0 0 - 0 2 2 0 0 0 -\nAlberto Ascari was one of the dominant figures of post-war racing, just as his father had been immediately after World War One. Ascari junior led the Ferrari team in the inaugural FIA World Championship in 1950 and was world champion himself in 1952 and 1953.\nWith motor racing in his blood, he started racing with motorcycles before the war brought an end to his activities. After the interruption of the Second World War, Ascari had his first taste of grand prix racing in 1947. In 1949 he joined the Ferrari team - Enzo Ferrari had been a close friend of his father - and was soon a hugely popular personality, largely because of his skill on the track and charm off it.\nIn 1952, although he missed the first race, he won the Belgian, French, British, German, Dutch and Italian Grands Prix and duly took the title. He kept this winning streak going into 1953, taking the first three races and then two more later in the year as he motored to his second consecutive world title.\nIn 1954 he moved to Lancia for more money than Ferrari were willing to pay but found himself sidelined as the promised cars were not ready. As he kicked his heels, Juan Manuel Fangio began his four-year domination.\nIn 1955 Ascari crashed into the harbour during the Monaco Grand Prix but swam to safety with minor injuries. And yet four days later he was dead.\nHis father was killed while leading the French Grand Prix in 1924 and that helped fuel Ascari's deeply superstitious nature. He avoided black cats and refused to allow anyone to touch the briefcase containing his racing apparel: the lucky blue helmet and T-shirt, the goggles and gloves. He was also fastidious about unlucky numbers and rather eerily he was killed on the 26th of the month - like his father had been - and was the same age as well - 36.\nHis death was odd because Ascari, a driver who was renowned for his attention to safety, took a Ferrari out testing at Monza without a helmet - he had left his at home. He reasoned that after Monaco it was best to get back behind the wheel and drive as soon as possible. On the third lap his car crashed - the reasons and circumstances have never come to light - and was killed.\nMore than a million people lined the streets in Milan for his funeral. Fangio lamented: \"I have lost my greatest opponent.\" So distraught was his friend Gianni Lancia that he decided he had had enough and handed his team, including spares, drivers and monocoques, to Ferrari.\nThree days before he died Ascari had told a friend. \"I never want my children to become too fond of me because one day I might not come back and they will suffer less if I don't come back.\"\nPopular with colleagues and crowds because of his modesty and eagerness to praise others' ability, there were few harder drivers to pass when he was out in front, but critics noted he lacked the complete focus needed when he was chasing the lead\nAfter cruising to the 1952 title, Ascari was faced with a returning Juan Manuel Fangio for the opening race of the 1953 season, and what's more in front of Fangio's fawning crowd in Buenos Aires. Allied to that Ferrari was expected to be challenged by a resurgent Maserati. But Ascari took pole and stormed to victory in intense heat, setting him on course for a second consecutive drivers' championship.\nHis decision to move to Lancia in 1954 came with the promise of a new car and more money. But the car failed to materialise until near the end of the season - while waiting he was forced to take guest drives for Maserati and Ferrari - and by the time it was ready Fangio was unassailable. Ascari finished the season without completing any of the four grands prix he entered.\n\"Certainly Ascari was wonderfully good... he was rather better than good, he was very good indeed. He may have been as fast as Fangio... but he had not got the polish that so distinguished Fangio\" - Stirling Moss\n\"When he had to follow and pass an opponent, he evidently suffered, not from an inferiority complex, but from a nervousness that did not let him express his true class\" - Enzo Ferrari\nAscari holds the record for the most consecutive wins - nine - between 1952 and 1953 assuming the Indianapolis 500 is excluded. He also holds the record for the most consecutive races where he set the fastest lap (7)\nHe has the least grand prix starts of any champion - 32",

        "raw_content": "A Syrian wild ass in London Zoo, 1872.\nExtinct (1928) (IUCN 3.1)[1]\nE. hemionus\nEquus hemionus syriacus\nThe Syrian wild ass (Equus hemionus hemippus), less commonly known as a hemippe,[2] an achdari, or a Mesopotamian or Syrian onager,[3] is an extinct subspecies of onager native to the Arabian peninsula. It ranged across present-day Iraq, Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Turkey.\n7 Related subspecies\nThe Syrian wild ass, only one metre high at its shoulder,[4] was the smallest form of Equidae and could not be domesticated.[5] Its coloring changed with the seasons\u2014a tawny olive coat for the summer months and pale sandy yellow for the winter.[4][6] It was known, like other onagers, to be untameable, and was compared to a thoroughbred horse for its beauty and strength.[5]\nGalloping specimen in Tiergarten Sch\u00f6nbrunn, 1915.\nSpecimen in Tiergarten Sch\u00f6nbrunn, 1924 (unknown if same specimen as above or as referenced in text as last known living captive specimen).\nAssyrians lassoing a wild ass.\nThe Syrian wild ass lived in deserts, semi-deserts, arid grasslands and mountain steppes. Native to West Asia, they were found in Palestine, Jordan, Turkey, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Iraq.\nThe Syrian wild ass was a grazer. It fed on grass, herbs, leaves, shrubs and tree branches.\nPredation[edit]\nSyrian wild asses were preyed upon by Asiatic lions,[7][8] Arabian leopards, striped hyenas, grey wolves and Caspian tigers. Asiatic cheetahs may have preyed on onager foals.\nEuropean travelers in the Middle East during the 15th and 16th centuries reported seeing large herds.[9] However, its numbers began to drop precipitously during the 18th and 19th centuries due to overhunting, and its existence was further imperiled by the regional upheaval of World War I. The last known wild specimen was fatally shot in 1927 at al Ghams near the Azraq oasis in Jordan, and the last captive specimen died the same year at the Tiergarten Sch\u00f6nbrunn, in Vienna.[10]\nAfter the extinction of the Syrian wild ass, the Persian onager from Iran was chosen as the appropriate subspecies to replace the extinct onagers in the Middle East. The Persian onager was then introduced to the protected areas of Saudi Arabia and Jordan. It was also reintroduced, along with the Turkmenian kulan, to Israel, where they both reproduce wild ass hybrids in the Negev Mountains and the Yotvata Hai-Bar Nature Reserve.\nIt is believed this may be the \"wild ass\" which Ishmael was prophesied to be in Genesis in the Old Testament. References also appear in the Old Testament books of Job, Psalms, Jeremiah and the Deuterocanonical book of Sirach.[9]\nThe Qur\u2019an, the main book of Islam, in Surat al-Muddaththir, refers to a scene of humur (Arabic: \u062d\u064f\u0640\u0645\u0640\u0631\u200e, 'asses' or 'donkeys') fleeing from a qaswarah (Arabic: \u0642\u064e\u0640\u0633\u0640\u0648\u0631\u0629\u200e, 'lion'). This was to criticize people who were averse to Muhammad's teachings, such as supporting the welfare of the less wealthy.[7][8]\nRelated subspecies[edit]\nMongolian wild ass (khulan), Equus hemionus hemionus\nTurkmenian kulan (kulan), Equus hemionus kulan\nIndian wild ass (khur), Equus hemionus khur\nPersian onager (gur), Equus hemionus onager\n^ Moehlman, P. & Feh, C.

        "raw_content": "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn\u2019t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover.\u201d Mark Twain\nPeople have invented new tools, traded with each other, and made risky decisions long before angel investors and the stock markets existed. Indeed, our innate human curiosity, natural ingenuity, and desire to take control over our environment have transformed the world around us and redefined how we live our lives\u2014what and how we consume, how we relate and communicate with each other, and even what makes us happy. Every day we make all kinds of decisions that define our future. These decisions involve problem-solving, empathizing with others, thinking creatively, persevering in the face of adversity and uncertainty, and (often) accepting and dealing with failure. This is to say that to be a human is to be, at least occasionally, an entrepreneur. In that sense, studying entrepreneurship should not only be about learning how to start a new business, but also, and more importantly, about learning the fundamental principles and skills that can help you achieve your goals in an unpredictable and constantly changing world so that you can live a happier and more fulfilling life.\nIn this course, we will study variety of topics and ideas related to entrepreneurship that will help us gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world around us\u2014the forces that drive socio-economic progress, and, hopefully, our own selves. We will start by looking at the big picture. We will examine how technological innovations in the past century are changing and constantly disrupting the global competitive landscape. We will learn about patterns of innovation and economic development across countries and over time. We will ask what makes some countries more entrepreneurial (and richer) than others; can government regulation increase the number of entrepreneurs in society; is entrepreneurship always productive and good; and is social entrepreneurship inconsistent with market profits.\nOnce we establish the value of entrepreneurship to our lives, we will then ask who are the entrepreneurs; what is it that they do; how they think; and, at the end of the day, what makes them \u201ctick.\u201d To do this, we will study the entrepreneurial mindset by looking at the stories of different entrepreneurs and identifying the skillset that helped them achieve success. Along the way, we will dispel some common myths about entrepreneurship and build skills and knowledge that can help us develop a growth mindset that can help us be more successful in our own lives.\nWe will then look at the process of starting a new business. We will ask where do creative ideas come from; how can we identify new business opportunities; what makes some business ideas better than others; why some businesses fail and others succeed; what is the best way to create value; and how to more effectively grow a business. Here, we will examine whether business planning can help you succeed and practice how to give an effective presentation.\nWe will end the class by reflecting on the future. What are the most important technological and social trends that will shape our lives in the next 30 years? Are robots going to take our jobs? Can we transition to a more sustainable (zero) society? How will new technologies change the way we relate to each?\nFinally, I can\u2019t promise you that by the end of the semester you will know how to become a successful entrepreneur. As Oscar Wilde once said \u201ceducation is an admirable thing, but it is worth to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.\u201d This is true for entrepreneurship as well \u2013 identifying, building, and enhancing the skills that can help you succeed as an entrepreneur (and life in general) is something that will inevitably happen outside of the classroom. However, this does not mean that we should discard the study of entrepreneurship completely. On the contrary, studying entrepreneurship can provide us with valuable insights about how people make choices and how these choices affect our own lives every day. It can also challenge us to examine the meaning of social progress, our own place in a constantly changing world, and critically evaluate the values and beliefs that we hold the closest to our hearts. What I can promise you, then, is that if you are motivated and spend the necessary time to explore new ideas and ways of thinking, you will make one more step towards an educated and flourishing life\u2014and this is something valuable in itself. After all, you will have to make all kinds of choices\u2014for yourself, your family, business, or your community\u2014and this is something you can do either intelligently or not.\nA. Examine modern socio-economic progress by studying patterns of (disruptive) innovation over time and across countries.\nB. Understand the critical role of institutions, culture, and geography in promoting entrepreneurship.\nC. Identify skills that can help you develop a growth (entrepreneurial) mindset by learning about the lives of successful entrepreneurs.\nD. Dispel some common myths about entrepreneurship.\nE. Build confidence that you don\u2019t need to be an expert to start a business; and that failure (and how you react to it) is one of the key ingredients of success.\nF. Learn how to effectively communicate your ideas through writing and giving presentations.\nOverall, our goal will be to focus on the breadth of knowledge, connecting ideas, and applying them to the real world and our own lives while in your more advanced business classes you will learn more technical skills such as writing a business plan.",

        "raw_content": "Home / How To Sell On Etsy / 3 Scary Reasons It\u2019s Important To Have Your Own Website For Your Online Shop\nEtsy is a great place to get your first online shop started, it\u2019s a great community for artistic and creative people to be a part of.\nAnother huge advantage is how easy it is to get started with Etsy.\nI\u2019ve used a lot of sites such as Amazon, Ebay and many others, but Etsy is by far the easiest to use site I have found for selling items.\nHowever, even if you love Etsy as much as I do, it\u2019s a terrible idea to put all your eggs in one basket.\nSetting up your own website is very important, there have been situations where Etsy and a seller disagreed about something and Etsy promptly removed their shop.\nIt\u2019s tough, but ultimately it\u2019s Etsy\u2019s brand and visitors, selling on Etsy is a privilege and it shouldn\u2019t taken for granted.\nHere are a few big reasons that I have my own website along side my Etsy shop.\nDifferentiation from other Etsy shops is difficult\nEtsy is an online marketplace for individuals to sell their hand-made items. In a sea of shops selling hand-crafted goods, it\u2019s difficult to make yours stand out and be one of a kind.\nYour only chance at doing this is through listing descriptions, but these can easily be copied from you, and it is not long before all descriptions start being alike.\nWhen a customer searches any keyword on Etsy, your items are competing head to head with tons of other excellent shops out there.\nPrice is the biggest deciding factor, and I hate being the cheapest.\nWhen selling on your own storefront you are not competing with anyone but yourself.\nThis makes it a lot easier to drive offline traffic to your own site from places like Pinterest and Facebook.\nWhen sending the traffic to your site, you don\u2019t have to worry about paying for a sale on someone elses shop.\nEtsy Shops Rank Lower on Search Engines\nThe newest addition to Google\u2019s search algorithms is that duplicated content is ranked lower on search engines.\nSo, the overflow of similar descriptions on Etsy tends to lead to Etsy shops being ranked lower on Google than regular websites.\nThis means that the potential of gaining customers through search engines is much lower, and this can affect your sales greatly.\nEtsy is Controlled By Its Owners, Not You\nUnlike on your own website, you cannot really alter much about the way Etsy works.\nSo, while many say that they gain a lot of exposure by being available to the huge population browsing Etsy every day, it is also possible that they are losing prospective customers in the same way they are gaining them: to other sellers on the platform.\nThat being said, the major downside of Etsy is that its rules and policies are out of your control.\nInstead of over-relying on its benefits, you should dedicate a portion of your time to working on your own website.\nThis will provide a great safety net in case something changes at Etsy and it becomes unprofitable or impossible for you to sell your products through the platform.\nRemember that the owners of Etsy are always looking to increase their profits, and this may turn out to be less profitable for you.\nSetting up my own website now! Lol\nBeth that is a great idea, let me know how it works out.\nGayle, thank you for your well put thoughts. I\u2019m very excited about implementing what you and your husband have taught in my shop as well. I\u2019m definitely going to check out your site on a regular basis!\nSo glad I could help you! Looking forward to many more comments from you in the future!\nCindy Gigstead\nI am learning so much! Do you have any suggestions on which company to use for creating a website?",

        "raw_content": "Events Home / Opry Country Classics\n$40-$99/Ticket\nThe Gatlin Brothers: Over 40 years ago, Larry, Steve, and Rudy Gatlin started singing in their hometown of Abilene, Texas, and from there went on to make music history. Over the course of a four-decade career that has taken the Gatlin brothers from dusty Texas stages to White House performances, from Broadway to Grammy Awards to the top of the country charts, there has been one unifying element, music. There\u2019s no harmony quite as pure as family harmony. \u201cGatlin harmonies spin with high and light precision and their music bleeds and screams of love and a lot of living.\u201d Country Capsule in New York. .. .. After high school, Larry went to the university of Houston on a football scholarship. He majored in English and quickly developed \u201ca love affair with the English language\u201d that later served him well in his song writing. On the strength of his song writing talents and exceptional vocal ability, his life was changed by the legendary Dottie West who saw gold just under the unpolished surface of young Gatlin. The early 70\u2019s found Steve and Rudy in college while Larry, aided by West, moved to Nashville to write songs that would be recorded by names like Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Barbara Streisand, Tom Jones, and yes, Elvis Presley. .... In 1972, Larry landed a solo deal with Monument Records through friend Kris Kristofferson and invited his siblings up to Nashville to sing backup on his first two albums\u20131974\u2019s The Pilgrim and 1975\u2019s Rain Rainbow. The release of The Pilgrim landed Gatlin his first hit with \u201cSweet Becky Walker,\u201d and then found himself at ..1 on the charts the next year with \u201cBroken Lady,\u201d a song that captured him a Grammy in '76. The same year all three brothers were inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. 1977\u2019s High Time, credited to \u201cLarry Gatlin with Brothers and Friends,\u201d featured the No. 1 hit \u201cI Just Wish You Were Someone I Love.\u201d The success of this album encouraged the brothers to become an official trio and in 1979, they signed a group deal with Columbia records. When demand from hit records sent them on the road, The Gatlin Brothers proved more than capable of fulfilling the musical call on their lives. In concert, their performances were simply magical events, filled with incredible family harmonies, total professionalism, and downright fun for both the trio and their audiences. Over the next decade the Brothers scored more than a dozen Top 40 hits, including \u201cDenver,\u201d \u201cHouston (Mean That I\u2019m One Day Closer To You),\u201d \u201cMidnight Choir (Mogen David),\u201d and \u201cShe Used To Be Somebody's Baby,\u201d \u201c Don't Want To Cry,\u201d \u201cStatues Without Hearts,\u201d \u201cWhat Are We Doing Lonesome,\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve Done Enough Dyin\u2019 Today,\u201c \u201cTake Me To Your Lovin\u2019 Place,\u201d \u201cNight Time Magic,\u201d \u201cLove Is Just A Game,\u201d \u201cThe Lady Takes The Cowboy Every Time,\u201d and \u201cTalkin\u2019 To The Moon.\u201d It was also in \u201979 that Larry Gatlin won the ACM\u2019s \u201cTop Male Vocalist,\u201d \u201cStraight Ahead\u201d won \u201cAlbum of the Year,\u201d and \u201cAll The Gold In California\u201d won \u201cSingle of the Year.\u201d .... Larry, Steve and Rudy love to sing together. Raised on Gospel music, the brothers first began entertaining audiences in churches and appearances on the Slim Willet radio and TV show in Abilene when they were 2, 4, 6 years old. \u201cRudy could barely sing at the time and we all dressed in cowboy suits and looked real cute,\u201d recalls Steve. While their talents have since blossomed far beyond just looking cute, the brothers still maintain their passion for the music they were reared on. \u201cGospel music was our first love and always will be. it is where we learned to sing,\u201d says Rudy. Larry says their history as \u201cGospel music junkies\u201d came from those early roots. \u201cOur folks took us to those Southern style quartet concerts and it was love at first sound!\u201d \u201cMy first hero was James Blackwood of the Blackwood Brothers Quartet-I just knew somehow from that moment that I wanted to be a singer for the rest of my life\u201d says Larry. The Gatlin Brothers paid tribute to their roots with the release of \u201cGatlin Brothers Gospel,\u201d a CD of six standards and six originals penned by Larry. \u201cDo you like the title?\u201d deadpans Steve. \u201cIt took me hours to come up with that!\u201d .... Throughout the 70\u2019s and 80\u2019s, the Gatlin Brothers lit up major marquees and packed concert halls across America. Then, in 1992 after much soul searching and prayer, the brothers made a decision to stop touring. They ended with \u201cThe Adios Tour\u201d along with an accompanying album release of the same name, and it gave the boys a chance to say goodbye to their fans and for the fans to say goodbye to the Gatlin Brothers. Explains Larry, \u201cWe just thought our time in the spotlight was probably over. We had a great run and are thankful for it. We felt it was someone else\u201ds turn in the spot light.\u201d .... As Larry says, \u201cYou know what Bob Dylan said\u2026things they are a changin\u2019,\u201d According to Larry, a promoter in Dover, Delaware \u201cmade us an offer we couldn\u2019t understand\u201d\u2026so we took it! Since then a popular ground swell, maybe not a large popular ground swell, but a ground sell nontheless, has arisen that has persuaded us to do some selected dates that we are calling \u201cThe Gatlin Brothers Never Ending Reunion Tour.\u201d Visit concerts for a list of performances across the country! .... At this stage, The Gatlins\u2019 have the best of both worlds, families and fans, plenty of work both as individuals and together. \u201cA long time ago we decided to make music for our fans and people who came to our shows.\u201d Says Larry, And I know that Steve, Rudy, and Larry are going to stand up and sing in tune every night. .. And during the day, play as much golf as possible.",

Also surprising is that prior to this book Nick Pope had only written four books himself. With this in mind this book has to be a welcome addition to the UFO literature.\nRead more: Book Review: Encounter in Rendlesham Forest\nPaola Harris interviews Alex Collier\nInterview with Alex Collier\nI just recently wrote a piece for the October 2000 issue of UFO magazine on Vatican representative Rev. Monsignor Balducci who stesses the importance of witness testimony in investigations. Although I personally have never really seen anything or experienced CONTACT like even so many of my military witnesses have confessed to, I'd better take heed. In the past, most of my investigative journalistic efforts were of the concrete government/ military witnesses type or of a\" nuts and Bolts' scientific nature. They are people who were involved first hand like Colonel Philip Corso, Dr. Michael Wolf, Sgt. Major Robert O Dean and Clifford Stone.\nHowever, I am beginning to believe that we should begin to look at the whole picture from a different perspective as now many\"experiencers\" also are giving first hand accounts of this very paranormal Phenomenon. I believe some of these people are telling the TRUTH here.\nIn an effort to bring a more comprehensive approach here, I am including this unusual interview with Alex Collier.\nNow the Alex Collier interview is truly a stretch for me because I don't usually interview Contactees but his name was given to me first by the Reverend Jean Holmes, whom I greatly respect, at the Standing Elk STAR KNOWLEDGE Conference last year. I ignored it then because the timing wasn't right. Then, by chance, a young Italian Contactee in ITALY suggested that I contact him this year! Since I go largely by instinct , I tracked down ALEX COLLIER in Colorado. He has much to say that has been verified by my previous \"nuts and bolts\" witnesses He mentions Hoagland's research at least 12 times and it is no coincidence that I am researching Hoagland's MARS claims. So SOMEONE must be leading me along a given path.\nIn conclusion, it is non characteristic for me to do this kind of interview but I make it a point to meet the people I interview and I did sit and speak with Alex Collier for 4 hours on July 29th,2000. To this reporter, he appeared very credible. The book is worth reading!\nFood for thought!!!!\nRead more: Paola Harris interviews Alex Collier\nThe 2014 summer semester of courses starts at the Exopolitics Institute\nDid you ever dream of joining Starfleet Academy? Well, this is the closest thing: next week a new semester of courses starts at the Exopolitics Institute. The two courses that are given this time are:\n- Exo-102: Citizen Diplomacy with Extraterrestrial Civilizations (http://tinyurl.com/exo102)\n- Exo-109: Messages from Space: Past and Present contact (http://tinyurl.com/exo109)\nBook Review of The ET-Human Link: We Are The Message\nThe ET-Human Link: We Are The Message\nBy Dana Redfield\nReviewed by AJ\n\"We are the message and we are the evidence. It seems almost a conspiracy that investigators would chase the dream of getting their hands on the nuts and bolts and smoking guns of the UFO, while we, the living evidences of the presence, were gestating in the miracle wombs of change. Abductees are like children\u2026.As we toddled, disoriented in a world that ignored us for the dazzle of new technologies, muse-babble was our language. But now we are beginning to find our voices\u2026\" \u2013 Dana Redfield\nDana Redfield, an accomplished author of fiction, has written her second work of non-fiction, The ET-Human Link: We Are The Message. Many people will recall her first nonfiction book, Summoned: Encounters with Alien Intelligence during which she tested the waters of a new reality emerging, and for the first time shared some of her encounters with non-human intelligences with the public.\nI read Dana's first book of nonfiction and to me it seems that Dana Redfield has grown spiritually and has become stronger and more resilient than she probably ever thought she could. She has taken the next step in her mission, if we may call it that, and has now gone public with in-depth information about her experiences, her private life and feelings about her place in the world.\nJenny Randles penned an excellent Foreword for this book doing a superb job of preparing the reader for their journey into Dana Redfield's life. The ET-Human Link is a beautifully written book, but like many experiencers' lives, it is a very complex story. It is a story that will ask you to think about our world in the context of what is happening to those of us who have experienced interaction with non-human beings.\nRead more: Book Review of The ET-Human Link: We Are The Message\nBook Review of Extraterrestrial Visitations: True Accounts of Contact\nExtraterrestrial Visitations\nTrue Accounts of Contact\nExtraterrestrial Visitations: True Accounts of Contact is Preston Dennett's fourth book about the UFO phenomenon. It is based on ten case histories and includes personal testimonies from the following: a medical doctor, a therapist, an airplane mechanic, a housewife, a military person, an office worker, a factory employee, an actor, a waitress, and a store manager. In other words, people we see in our everyday lives.\nPreston carefully chose these ten cases because they all have something important to contribute to our understanding of the phenomenon. They all have similarities to other cases, but they also have important differences and contain new information. Preston interjects his thoughtful insights about the phenomenon in each chapter, but it is done so in a gentle, logical manner allowing the witnesses to describe their own experiences and draw their own conclusions. There is no doubt Preston does draw conclusions, but it is from years of investigating and interviewing witnesses, and the reader will quickly see that he is very familiar with the subject.\nRead more: Book Review of Extraterrestrial Visitations: True Accounts of Contact\nPaola Harris interviews Courtney Brown (part 1)\n[Note: This is an interview Paola Harris did with Courtney Brown on 17 April, 2000. It was previously published on her Italian web site].\nHarris: Do you mind if I tape this so I don't make mistakes? I'm taping this with a regular tape with a telephone system here in Rome.\nBrown: yeah, Okay\nHarris: Okay\nBrown: Thank you very much for asking for this interview. I saw your web site and it was very interesting.\nHarris: The people in Italy found out that I had worked with Dr. J Allen Hyneck in the '80's and they started asking me to do UFO research and so that's how I got involved.\nBrown: That's an exciting field for you to be in. That's great.\nHarris: Well , Let me explain your book was given to me about a month ago because I'm really interested in remote viewing. I had been interested in Ingo Swann when he came out with his web site and his book Penetration and I thought, how come all of a sudden this work which I thought was top secret government project becomes public and people can talk about it?\nBrown: Yeah, well there are actually two sides to it. Ingo's stuff is very, very up front. I don't see any remote possibility for him to deceive anyone for any reason. You know, he states that he's tried to clear up things on record as he's getting older, and he wants to get on with other things. I can't see any reason, or at least any profit motivation, for selling Penetration. The first seventy pages is riveting. I don't think he intended to write a spellbinder or anything like that. So I find him very credible. I, by the way, don't know Ingo. I've only spoken to him once for five minutes on the phone. We've exchanged only one letter, and I wish I had been able to know him better. So if I say anything dealing with Ingo, it's only third hand information, but it's always great, great positive stuff. I wish I'd known him.\nHarris: You never worked with Ingo . Did you ever work with Hal Putoff at the Stanford Research Institute, or any of those people?\nBrown: No, we have our own institute here, The Farsight Institute\nHarris: Right\nRead more: Paola Harris interviews Courtney Brown (part 1)\nBy Michael A. Cremo and Richard L. Thompson\nForbidden Archeology is a work that questions current beliefs about human evolution. Part I of Forbidden Archeology (which covers 458 pages) is based on what the authors call anomalous evidence and \"provides a well documented compendium of reports absent from many current references and not otherwise easily obtainable.\" The authors discuss how scientific evidence has been \"systematically suppressed, ignored, or forgotten...not through a conspiracy organized to deceive the public, but through an ongoing social process of knowledge filtration that appears quite innocuous, but has a substantial cumulative effect.\"\nRead more: Book Review of Forbidden Archeology\nNicolas Berasain, from Exopolitics Chile, did a presentation on the Ruwa case (i.e. the Ariel School in Ruwa, Zimbabwe).

What?\nQUOTE: How many politicians have been prosecuted for taking millions of dollars from private prisons, prison guard unions, pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, tobacco companies, the NRA and Wall Street banks and doing their bidding for them...Our entire political system is financed by wealthy private interests buying politicians and making sure the rules are written in their favor. But selling CDs or loose cigarettes? In America, that\u2019s treated as a serious crime, especially if you\u2019re black.\nJun 28, 2016 Democrats Need to Wake Up\nQUOTE: Surprise, surprise. Workers in Britain, many of whom have seen a decline in their standard of living while the very rich in their country have become much richer, have turned their backs on the European Union and a globalized economy that is failing them and their children. And it\u2019s not just the British who are suffering. That increasingly globalized economy, established and maintained by the world\u2019s economic elite, is failing people everywhere.\nMar 14, 2016 Justice Dept.

We don't drug-test farmers who receive agriculture subsidies...\nDec 05, 2014 The Police in America Are Becoming Illegitimate: The crooked math that's going to crash American law enforcement if policies aren't changed\nQUOTE: Law-enforcement resources are now distributed so unevenly, and justice is being administered with such brazen inconsistency, that people everywhere are going to start questioning the basic political authority of law enforcement. And they're mostly going to be right to do it, and when they do, it's going to create problems that will make the post-Ferguson unrest seem minor. The Garner case was a perfect symbol of everything that's wrong with the proactive police tactics that are now baseline policy in most inner cities.\nSep 03, 2014 How municipalities in St. Louis County, Mo., profit from poverty\nQUOTE: Jackson County has just 19 municipalities, and just 15 municipal courts \u2014 less than a quarter of municipalities and courts in St. Louis County. Some of the towns in St. Louis County can derive 40 percent or more of their annual revenue from the petty fines and fees collected by their municipal courts....white people didn\u2019t just flee St. Louis, they used whatever tools were at their disposal to prevent black people from joining them, including race-restrictive deeds and covenants until they were struck down in 1947, segregation until it was struck down in 1954, real estate pacts, and finally zoning laws.\nJun 15, 2014 The True Cost of Hidden Money A Piketty Prot\u00e9g\u00e9\u2019s Theory on Tax Havens (Op-Ed)\nQUOTE: ...$7.6 trillion \u2014 8 percent of the world\u2019s personal financial wealth \u2014 is stashed in tax havens. If all of this illegally hidden money were properly recorded and taxed, global tax revenues would grow by more than $200 billion a year, he believes. And these numbers do not include much larger corporate tax avoidance, which usually follows the letter but hardly the spirit of the law. According to Mr. Zucman\u2019s calculations, 20 percent of all corporate profits in the United States are shifted offshore\nMay 30, 2014 Is There Such a Thing as an Affordable Lawyer? For many Americans, legal services are out of reach. But that's beginning to change.\nQUOTE: The implication that you might need multiple degrees to represent yourself in a basic civil dispute seems unfair in and of itself. But a lack of access to affordable legal representation\u2014coupled with the obstacles facing anyone who wants to self-represent\u2014imposes knock-on costs that ripple throughout society....Lack of access to legal help, in other words, serves as a shield for neglectful landlords and all sorts of other bad actors\u2014abusive husbands, predatory lenders, corrupt employers. Because it took someone with Ned\u2019s advantages to hold her accountable, his landlord was free to fleece tenants for years.\nMay 22, 2014 Outcry as businessman gets work-release after 7 DUIs, car crash\nQUOTE: local uproar over how Goodman, 42, avoided hard jail time -- despite facing his seventh drunk-driving offense and with his blood alcohol measuring 0.16, twice Washington state's threshold for DUI...\"It seems like Shaun Goodman and other people that are wealthy are playing by a different set of rules,\"\nDec 07, 2013 In Nation Remade by Mandela, Social Equality Remains Elusive\nQUOTE: [Mandela] led a party that had fought an armed insurgency against the apartheid government, yet when he emerged from prison he preached forgiveness and harmony. Stripped of bitterness, Mr. Mandela negotiated a peaceful end to white rule, giving birth to the rainbow nation. But racial equality at the ballot box has proved much easier to achieve than social and economic equality.\nSep 09, 2013 Hey, Senior Discount, You Look Pretty Youthful!\nQUOTE: Welcome to the flexible and often generous world of senior discounts, where prime of life can be considered old and even the wealthy are entitled to special deals. It is a land of shifting perspectives reflecting the realities, economic and otherwise, of a graying America.\nJul 30, 2013 Elite Colleges Differ on How They Aid Poor\nQUOTE: With affirmative action under attack and economic mobility feared to be stagnating, top colleges profess a growing commitment to recruiting poor students. But a comparison of low-income enrollment shows wide disparities among the most competitive private colleges. A student at Vassar, for example, is three times as likely to receive a need-based Pell Grant as one at Washington University in St. Louis.\nJul 27, 2013 Obama Says Income Gap Is Fraying U.S. Social Fabric\nQUOTE: [Obama] was worried that years of widening income inequality and the lingering effects of the financial crisis had frayed the country\u2019s social fabric and undermined Americans\u2019 belief in opportunity. Upward mobility... \u201cwas part and parcel of who we were as Americans.\" \u201cAnd that\u2019s what\u2019s been eroding over the last 20, 30 years, well before the financial crisis...\"\nJul 20, 2013 Pope, in an Angered Brazil, to Focus on Social Justice\nQUOTE: As archbishop of Buenos Aires, Francis never showed much sympathy for liberation theology, but since he assumed the papacy, signs abound that a truce is now in effect, at least temporarily....Francis took a symbolically important step that liberation theologians here and elsewhere in Latin America interpreted as a peace offering. The beatification of Bishop \u00d3scar Romero, a Salvadoran who was killed by a right-wing death squad in 1980 and is considered a martyr by many disciples of liberation theology, had been frozen since 2005, the year Benedict assumed the papacy, but Francis almost immediately ordered it reopened.\nJun 25, 2013 Who will stop Google? Snowden revealed what many of us already suspected: Google completely controls the web\nQUOTE: What do the U.S. government and Silicon Valley already have in common? Above all, they want to remain opaque while making the rest of us entirely transparent through the capture of our data. What is arising is simply a new form of government, involving vast entities with the reach and power of government and little accountability to anyone. Google, the company with the motto \u201cDon\u2019t be evil,\u201d is rapidly becoming an empire. Not an empire of territory, as was Rome or the Soviet Union, but an empire controlling our access to data and our data itself. Antitrust lawsuits proliferating around the company demonstrate its quest for monopoly control over information in the information age.\nMay 06, 2013 Charts: Why You're in Deep Trouble If You Can't Afford a Lawyer:Fifty years after the groundbreaking \"Gideon\" ruling, public defenders are overworked, underpaid\u2014and America's poor are paying the price\nQUOTE: the Supreme Court disappointed reformers when it refused to rule on a case involving a Louisiana man serving a life sentence after waiting five years in jail while the state came up with money to pay his court-appointed lawyer....Since the 1963 Supreme Court decision, America's prison population has grown more than tenfold\u2014from 217,000 inmates to 2.3 million\u2014largely due to decades of the war on drugs and tough-on-crime policies. It's been nearly impossible for the public defense system to keep pace.\nApr 04, 2013 As economy flails, debtors' prisons thrive (MoneyWatch)\nQUOTE: Thousands of Americans are sent to jail not for committing a crime, but because they can't afford to pay for traffic tickets, medical bills and court fees. If that sounds like a debtors' prison, a legal relic which was abolished in this country in the 1830s, that's because it is. And courts and judges in states across the land are violating the Constitution by incarcerating people for being unable to pay such debts.\nMar 15, 2013 Right to Lawyer Can Be Empty Promise for Poor\nQUOTE: Fifty years ago, on March 18, 1963, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled in Gideon v. Wainwright that those accused of a crime have a constitutional right to a lawyer whether or not they can afford one.... the promise inherent in the Gideon ruling remains unfulfilled... Civil matters \u2014 including legal issues like home foreclosure, job loss, spousal abuse and parental custody \u2014 were not covered by the decision. Today, many states and counties do not offer lawyers to the poor in major civil disputes, and in some criminal ones as well. Those states that do are finding that more people than ever are qualifying for such help, making it impossible to keep up with the need.\nDec 14, 2012 Tax Plan Is Popular, but Not Quite Fair\nQUOTE: The political appeal of a proposal that limits deductions without actually naming any \u2014 inciting the powerful interests and lobbyists that support them \u2014 seems obvious. But many tax experts said that a fixed dollar cap is anything but the evenhanded approach to closing loopholes it appears to be.\nDec 01, 2012 Utah Hunters Criticize Market Approach to Licenses and Conservation\nQUOTE: It especially bothers him \u2014 and other hunters \u2014 that those with means can buy public licenses through private outlets, paying thousands of dollars to move to the head of the line. More than any state in the West, Utah has expanded hunting opportunities for the well-to-do and has begun to diminish them for those seeking permits directly from the state.\nNov 30, 2012 Aid Changes Raise Issue of Diversity at Colleges\nQUOTE: a number of prestigious smaller colleges are straining to meet students\u2019 financial needs. To bridge the gap, some colleges have begun revising their financial aid formulas, raising concerns about how campus diversity \u2014 both economic and racial \u2014 might be affected.\nNov 13, 2012 Unequal or Unfair: Which Is Worse? Inequality is a symptom; unfairness is the disease.\nQUOTE: Fairness\u2014or lack of it\u2014is central to human relationships at every level, from a marriage between two people to disputes involving war and peace among the nations of the world. I believe fairness is what we need to focus on, not inequality\u2014though I readily acknowledge that high inequality in wealth and income is corrosive to society.\nNov 02, 2012 Hardship Strains Emotions in New York\nQUOTE: Emotions, frayed after almost a week of desperation, darkness and cold, approached a breaking point on Friday as the collective spirit that buoyed New York in the first few days after Hurricane Sandy gave way to angry complaints of neglect and unequal treatment. Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, facing criticism that he was favoring marathon runners arriving from around the world over people in devastated neighborhoods, reversed himself and canceled the New York City Marathon.\nAug 31, 2012 The Evolution of Fairness\nQUOTE: A multimedia investigation asks: Can examining how inequality began in a hunter-gatherer society teach us how to fairly share the costs and consequences of how we use diminishing natural resources?\nAug 23, 2012 Is Private School Not Expensive Enough?\nQUOTE: To the extent that any family with the wherewithal is paying less than the full cost of the product it is buying through combined tuition payments and donations, that family is effectively being subsidized by other current and past donors. Not only is this ethically unsupportable, but ultimately, it is also financially unworkable.\nJul 21, 2012 \u00a313tn: hoard hidden from taxman by global elite \u2022 Study estimates staggering size of offshore economy \u2022 Private banks help wealthiest to move cash into havens\nQUOTE: \"The problem here is that the assets of these countries are held by a small number of wealthy individuals while the debts are shouldered by the ordinary people of these countries through their governments,\" the report says\nMar 12, 2012 The Reproduction of Privilege\nQUOTE: Instead of serving as a springboard to social mobility as it did for the first decades after World War II, college education today is reinforcing class stratification, with a huge majority of the 24 percent of Americans aged 25 to 29 currently holding a bachelor\u2019s degree coming from families with earnings above the median income. Seventy-four percent of those now attending colleges that are classified as \u201cmost competitive,\u201d a group that includes schools like Harvard, Emory, Stanford and Notre Dame, come from families with earnings in the top income quartile, while only three percent come from families in the bottom quartile.\nFeb 27, 2012 Are rich people more unethical?\nQUOTE: A series of experiments conducted by psychologists at the University of California, Berkeley, suggests that people who are socially and financially better-off are more likely to lie, cheat, and otherwise behave unethically compared to individuals who occupy lower rungs of the socioeconomic ladder.\nJan 30, 2012 Lower-Income Families May Pay More for Auto Insurance\nQUOTE: Many low-income families cannot afford car insurance, at least in part because insurers price their policies in ways that cost them more...\nJan 24, 2012 In Address, Obama Makes Pitch for Economic Fairness\nQUOTE: President Obama pledged on Tuesday night to use government power to balance the scale between America\u2019s rich and the rest of the public, trying to present an election-year choice between continued leadership toward an economy \u201cbuilt to last\u201d and what he called irresponsible policies of the past that caused an economic collapse.\nDec 22, 2011 A Christmas Message From America's Rich\nQUOTE: The entire ethos of modern Wall Street, on the other hand, is complete indifference to all of these matters. The very rich on today\u2019s Wall Street are now so rich that they buy their own social infrastructure. They hire private security, they live on gated mansions on islands and other tax havens, and most notably, they buy their own justice and their own government....nobody even minds that they are rich. What makes people furious is that they have stopped being citizens.\nDec 21, 2011 Scaling Caste Walls With Capitalism\u2019s Ladders in India\nQUOTE: The rapid growth that followed the opening of India\u2019s economy in 1991 has widened the gulf between rich and poor, and some here have begun to blame liberalization for the rising tide of corruption. But the era of growth has also created something unthinkable a generation ago: a tiny but growing group of wealthy Dalit business people.\nDec 18, 2011 Don\u2019t Tax the Rich. Tax Inequality Itself. (Op-Ed)\nQUOTE: we propose an automatic extra tax on the income of the top 1 percent of earners \u2014 a tax that would limit the after-tax incomes of this club to 36 times the median household income. Importantly, our Brandeis tax does not target excessive income per se; it only caps inequality....It is not a \u201cclaw back\u201d tax. It merely assures that things don\u2019t get worse.\nNov 10, 2011 Greece and Italy Seek a Solution From Technocrats\nQUOTE: The question now, in both Italy and Greece, is whether the technocrats can succeed where elected leaders failed \u2014 whether pressure from the European Union backed by the whip of the financial markets will be enough to dislodge the entrenched cultures of political patronage that experts largely blame for the slow growth and financial crises that plague both countries.\nOct 24, 2011 Why Homelessness Is Becoming an Occupy Wall Street Issue\nQUOTE: political protesters do not face the challenges of urban camping alone.

For President Lee Myung-bak, this is more than a passing problem, because middle-class economic concerns and a string of frauds and scandals have convinced South Koreans that theirs is anything but the \u201cfair society\u201d that he has touted.\nJun 24, 2011 Them That\u2019s Not Shall Lose\nQUOTE: if Washington politicians ever knew the sting of poverty then they have long since vanquished the memory.

Recruited to serve on the board by our founder and first board president, Gerry Beer, Eliza became our third board president following Margaret Estes, and served from 1985 to 1987. During Eliza's leadership, her goal was to broaden our funding base, which soon included funding from the City of Dallas, an increase in our United Way allocation, and creation of an endowment fund with $650,000 from The Crystal Charity Ball.\n\u201cLooking back at myself as a young and inexperienced board president, I am so grateful for the support I received from the board members,\u201d Eliza says. \u201cMany were much more experienced nonprofit directors. The board and Gail Griswold, the first executive director, were open to new ideas and very entrepreneurial. An amazing number of new funding initiatives were accomplished during that period.\u201d\nEliza\u2019s experiences at The Family Place and on other nonprofit boards became the basis for her idea to form Solender/Hall, Inc. in 1991 as a commercial real estate brokerage company specializing in nonprofit organizations.\n\u201cThe Family Place was one of my first clients and continues to be today including representing the organization on the acquisition of the site for the new Ann Moody Place facility,\u201d she says. \u201cI am indebted to The Family Place for giving me the opportunity to continue to serve the organization and am so proud of all that has been accomplished over the past 40 years.\"",

I was passionately addicted to it; it was my great refuge through adolescence.\nI thought Cheever was magnificent and that if I could write like him that would be the best I could do.

As a teenager, he was an active SF fan, living at the Slan Shack in Battle Creek, Michigan, collecting magazines, attending conventions, and publishing fanzines (Fanewscard). He was also known as Frqnk from a 40s fanzine typo.\nAlso in his teens he worked as a copy boy for International Service, and then became an office boy for Ziff-Davis Publishers.\nHe was drafted into the Navy during World War II, and when his tour was over went to Beloit College where he majored in physics, graduating in 1950. He went back into the Navy during the Korean War. Afterward, he went to graduate school in journalism, then worked for a Chicago-based Sunday supplement. Soon afterward he switched to Science Digest, where he worked from 1956-1959. From there, he moved into men's magazines: Rogue, Cavalier, and Playboy (1969-1973). He left Playboy to write full-time.\nAfter moving to San Francisco in the 1970s, Robinson was a speechwriter for politician Harvey Milk; he also has a small role in the film Milk.\nRobinson is the author/editor of around 20 books, and has written numerous stories and articles. He has used the pen names of Thomas Benji, Robert Courtney, and James Walsh. Some of his novels have been made into movies and TV series, including The Power, The Glass Inferno (co-written with Thomas N. Scortia), and The Fifth Missile (an NBC mini-series). He collaborated on several other works with Scortia, including The Prometheus Crisis, The Nightmare Factor, and Blow-Out.\nHis later books included The Dark Beyond the Stars (1991), and an updated version of The Power (2000), which closely followed Waiting (1999), a novel with similar themes to The Power. A medical thriller about organ theft, called The Donor, was published in 2005.\nHis short fiction has been collected in A Life in the Day of Frank Robinson and Other Short Stories (1981) and Through My Glasses Darkly (2002).\nHe collected SF pulps, and one of his non-fiction books was Pulp Culture (1998).\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcK_5kmMJ64 (IA) Interviewed by Rusty Hevelin at MagiCon in 1992\n1977 \u2014 Kwintus Kublius (Kubla Khan 5)\n1981 \u2014 RiverCon VI\n2001 \u2014 First Fandom's Hall of Fame",

It\u2019s especially true in the delivery of patient services.\nAnd while technology innovation in many industries serves to lower costs and improve efficiency, we just haven\u2019t seen that in healthcare. It\u2019s just the opposite. Medical inflation rises at 2 to 3 times CPI and wage increases. Which means that if you\u2019re getting less than a 6% to 7% pay increase every year, you\u2019re actually making less money, net of healthcare costs.\nAs new technologies hit the market, costs just continue to rise. The solutions provided so far are generally more targeted at shifting costs between the participants \u2013 patients, providers, payers, employers. But unless we actually lower the overall cost, none of these solutions is viable over the longer term.\nFor a long time, I\u2019ve wanted to build something to start tackling these challenges.

The 13 victories marks a new school record for the Lakers. Dean advances to the regional semi-finals where they will face Genesee Community College on Saturday.\nMatthew Hall had a team-high six points for Finger Lakes. He scored a goal and assisted on five others. Taylor Spike scored three goals and added two assists. Alex Stull added a pair of goals. Cody Richardson, Matt Youngs, and Austin Laine rounded out the scoring.\nFinger Lakes got out to an early lead against the Bulldogs. They used a pair of illegal stick penalties to their advantage. Matthew Hall and Alex Stull each scored a man-up goal to give the Lakers a 3-1 lead halfway through the first. Dean closed the quarter on a run, however. They scored three goals in the final 3:31, including one with two seconds left to play, to tie the game and then take a 5-4 lead after one. Finger Lakes scored three goals in a 1:02 span in the second. Alex Stull scored and Taylor Spike tallied two for the quick burst, but that was all the scoring for the Lakers to close the half.

        "title": "Qur'an Immutability",
        "raw_content": "Q: In one of your answers, you posited that modern Muslims ought to study the Qur'an in terms of its philosophy, and how that philosophy may be applied to today's society, rather than seek to apply the laws in their exact form as stated in the Qur'an. Are you suggesting therefore that in such principles as zakat, saum, salat, and hajj, we should perhaps change the rules? And what about North American Muslims \u2013 sometimes we do not have anyone to whom to pay the zakat, so should we give the resident Imam? What happens if we do not trust the Imam, should we send it back to our home countries? And on what authority do you take your position which seems to be an abandonment of the stance taken by the ulama of all the different madhahib, namely that the Qur'anic laws are immutable?\nA: I must respond to the last question first, since that answer forms the foundation for all the other responses. The authority on which I base my position is the Qur'an itself. Nowhere in that document does it state that the laws are immutable, and as I have shown elsewhere, Umar, within the first few years of the Prophet Muhammad's death, changed the law regarding those to whom stipends had to be paid. The scholars also formulated the principle of \"taghyir al ahkam li taghyir al azman\" -- the changing of rulings based on the difference of time. The Qur'an also asks us to use our intellect. Now this is a significant development, for in the majority of the previous scriptures, the communities are asked to rely on their prophets' guidance and upon faith. But in Allah's last scripture, the culmination of our intellectual and spiritual evolution takes place. We are now mature enough, as the human race, to look around us and make such empirical surveys as may be necessary, and use the data in the universe around us to make judgments. We know that rules cannot be static; they must change according to time and clime. The Qur'an is inimitable, it is God's guidance expressed in the language of human beings, and this uniqueness is the sole claim of the Book. It is for this reason the Qur'an challenges us to produce a sura like the ones therein, and tells us that we are not able to do so, even with all the non-divine help that we may get.\nThis inimitability is what allows for its mutates mutandis usage of its rulings, for no matter what the changes may be, and which are made within the parameters of an Islamic weltanschauung, the Divine plan will still be maintained. No one in his right mind would suggest that since the Qur'an speaks about slavery, it should be enforced today simply to keep in harmony with the letter of that Book's verses. As Fazlur Rahman has put it, the Qur'anic laws have to be understood in their proper historical context. In the case of polygamy, several interpreters have tried to somehow show that the permission for the plurality of wives was allowed only when the number of widows had increased because of wars. However, this is contrary to historical facts -- monogamy may indeed have been the moral goal of the Prophet, but polygamy was a legally enshrined reality in seventh century Arabia. Were one to attempt to excise it in toto from the society of the Prophet's time, it would have been an impossible task. \"The Qur'an, therefore, accepted polygamy at the legal level, restricted it, and put as many safeguards against it as possible, but at the same time the moral ideal was enunciated as that of a monogamous society towards which the Prophet may have hoped the Muslims would move. History, however, proved otherwise and the vast conquests after the Prophet's death which brought a tremendous influx of women and slave girls into the Muslim society helped to thwart the very purpose of the Qur'an from this point of view.\" (cited from Fazlur Rahman: \"The Impact of Modernity on Islam\" in Islamic Studies, June 1966, p.120).\nHaving said this, I am not advocating a wholesale and pell-mell change by all and sundry. The Muslim community has never been able to face a particular problem: the aspect of change. The first generation of Muslims seemed to understand the Prophet's message in quite a different way to the later communities: and as such, we see certain changes that occurred. With the advent of tradition, and the formulation of the concepts of \"authority of sunna\" etc., we created for ourselves a pitfall from which we have never recovered. For tradition is what binds us to the past and the authority of the past. How dare one change certain things? In the collective Muslim consciousness, certain changes would be tantamount to heresy. One is therefore forced to do certain rituals, and even though in certain cases, we may argue for the pure symbolism of a ritual, we must still observe it, since, in the absence of the Prophet, we can only surmise -- and surmise does not grant certainty. It is for this reason that I say that whenever change is implemented, it must only be by those who can support their positions with logic and the authority of irrefutable arguments.\nLet us look at the question of zakah that you mentioned. What is the purpose of the zakah? The the proceeds of the zakah is clearly for social benefit, and this is as per Qur'anic text. The rate set by the Prophet and the early scholars indicate that they thought such amount was adequate for the needs of the society. But in today's society, we have several other factors that have to be considered -- schools, roads, health, social welfare, foreign aid, etc. These are not considerations that are restricted to the Muslims. Indeed every self-respecting citizen of North America who falls into the category of a tax-payer has deductions either made from paychecks, or makes remittances by some other form to the Internal Revenue Service which uses such taxes for the benefit of all. Is this not the same thing as the zakat? Such payments are made irrespective of one's religion, and surely nothing is more Islamic than this? For a Muslim to pay taxes and then to pay an \"Islamic\" zakat on top of that is an act of imprudence. And in doing so, the Muslims create a \"dar al Islam\" and \"dar al harb\" mentality that is totally against the better interests of modern Islam. Therefore, these considerations make the questions regarding lack of trust in your resident Imam, etc. superfluous. All Muslims in the Western world -- or at least the majority -- adhere to a central system of taxation and the monies are used for this purpose. Perhaps the most telling and yet unsavory example is the fact that there are several Muslims on welfare, and to the best of my knowledge, they do not collect this assistance from their local mosque administration, but from the government. If one, out of the goodness of his/her heart, wishes to send remittances back to a home country, this is fine, but the zakat / tax is preferably for the community in which one lives. That which one chooses to send to another country better falls under the category of \"sadaqah\" which is a voluntary donation, as opposed to the zakah which is a mandatory tax.\nIn the case of the siyam, we know that the duration of the days (as opposed to night) differ: in the Middle East, an average long day would be twelve hours, whereas in the Arctic, or at least in Northern Canada, daylight could be for a full 24 hours. What happens to a Muslim then? Does s/he fast for more than 24 hours? Does s/he not fast at all since there is no clear marker between day and night? Scholars differ on this -- some advocating the Arabian day measurement be used as a standard. I personally disagree with this since it grants some geographical status for setting legal precedent. I feel that the average day should be measured -- which should be on the premise that one does know that s/he is fasting -- maybe 12 hours -- but no more than this. Allah does not want hardship for us. And we know that prolonged fasting is forbidden.\nIn terms of prayer, this is also an area of great problem, perhaps most demonstrated by the fact that many people leave the prayer entirely, or in some cases, combine all five at one time. There is no need for any revamping or restructuring of the prayer: the Prophet's example has left for us the solution, although we make it difficult on ourselves. We are allowed, for any reason whatsoever -- to combine our prayers. This means that we can make three prayers per day. In terms of wudu, we are also allowed to wipe over our socks/stockings for a certain time. This means that before we leave our houses in the morning to go to work or school, if we make our wudu before wear our shoes, we do not have to take off the shoes to wipe our feet -- we simply wipe over the shoes. This means that at work or school, we simply wipe over the shoes. We may combine the prayers during our lunch period, and then after returning home at dinner-time. While it is better to do the ritual form, certainly Allah allows us to perform the prayer in a manner that is compatible with security and peace. We may therefore pray standing, sitting, or in any manner that allows us to concentrate on our Lord.\nThe hajj is conditional on several things, and I think that many Muslims desecrate this ritual. Once someone has done the hajj once, the duty is over. The world population of Muslims and the visa system necessary to travel to Saudi Arabia means that for every person granted a visa, someone is denied. Once a person has performed the hajj once, s/he is relieved of the responsibility afterwards. We should observe this and it will lead to less chaos, and will allow more Muslims to observe a ritual that is cherished. I am quite aware that many Sufi groups reinterpret the concept of hajj. While I am not comfortable with their perception, I am not averse to stating that at certain times, it is better to perform certain deeds that benefit humankind rather than spend the thousands of dollars to go for a pilgrimage. Only then will we have understood the full ethical message of the Qur'an.\nIslam is no longer limited to the geography of the Middle East, and we therefore have to understand that the Qur'an allows for all different cultures, lands, and civilizations to have their own applicable, functional Islam. A woman in seventh century Arabia gave one message when she covered her hair and her bosom; a woman in present day New York, in doing the same action, conveys a different message. These things ought to be considered by each and every Muslim. After all, Allah has given us each a brain, and we will be questioned individually on the Day of Judgment. Certainly there are certain things that we do communally, and it is for this reason that I have, on some issues, stated that the weight of tradition may be given precedence to personal opinion. In a case where a person works a midnight shift for example, to make the dhuhr prayer would be perhaps a stress on such an individual that is far removed from the day worker praying the dhuhr. What happens then? I cannot advocate any \"right\" position except to say that such a person must analyze his/her situation, knowing that Allah is a loving God and will understand. If this means changing the five times of prayer to coincide with his/her sleep/wake schedule, then certainly it would be a departure from the general Islamic norm. Or one may combine the prayers at a suitable time.\nIn the end, one has to realize that Islam is not only a religion of ritual, but of ethics, and our religious outlook must encompass all these different facets. Certain changes that we make to our personal definition and practice of Islam may be kept between God and us; the general public need not know of those departures from the perceived norm. This is in keeping with a concept of Maliki law which states for example that if a person sees the moon to end the fast, but does not have a supporting witness to make his testimony acceptable to the general public, or if the word has already gone out that the fast is not to end -- then such an individual may cease fasting, but keep his actions private. This is to prevent any confusion and lack of unity. It is a wonderful concept which ought to be put into practice on a large scale.\nA final observation that is appropriate here refers to your claims that the ulama of all the different madhahib agree that the Qur'anic laws are immutable. I do not agree. That the majority of Muslims hold that position is unquestionably true, but the majority of Muslims are not specialists in Islamic studies, and in many cases, object to the findings of certain ulama. Dr. Taha al-Alwani, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, and Muhammad al-Ghazali are some scholars who are well versed in the different sciences of traditional Islam, yet they have called for changes and in some cases have been condemned for their counsel. Even an arch-traditionist such as Muhammad Nasir al-Din al-Albani has seriously examined several customs and rules against their correctness. Therefore, it follows that every Muslim has a duty to read the Qur'an and seek to understand it to the best of his/her ability. After all, the purpose of the Book is specifically for individual reading and understanding, which must be enhanced by discussions with bona fide scholars whose findings can withstand both academic and faith-based debate. Only then will Islam live up to the Qur'anic statement: \"Verily the religion with God is Islam.\" And our good God has shown us this by stating: \"And if my servants ask you about Me, indeed I am near, answering the supplications of those who ask Me.\"",

Now in its 19th year, the two-day event staged by Geelong\u2019s Sleepy Hollow Blues Club features an impressive lineup of classic and original blues music from some Australian legends and emerging artists.\nIf you look at the best Australian blues guitarists of all time, Geoff Achison is without a doubt on the list. In 1994, Achison released his debut album Big Machine and since then has gone in leaps and bounds. I got the opportunity to sit down with Achison recently to have a chat about guesting with the Allman Brothers, playing alongside his long-time mentor and collaborator Dutch Tilders and how it feels to be celebrating the anniversary of the disc.\nLily and The Drum\nIn the past three years Lily and the Drum averaged out at about 100 gigs per year, and lucky for us they\u2019re swinging our way for a show or two. We were luck enough to have a chat to the band about the recording process and they\u2019re favourite places to perform \u2013 lucky for us [\u2026]\nWhile they may regret the punctuation in the middle of their name, there\u2019s not much else the four-piece band could add to that list. When I sat down to chat with bassist and vocalist Zach Carothers, the band was in the midst of a free tour in Australia, skydiving and generally living it up.\nCombining indie-pop guitar sounds of bands like The Jungle Giants and the sweet melodic crooning of Matt Corby, there is a new Geelong band on the rise: meet Revolution. From the outset they may seem like a bunch of young folk getting together to have a jam, but since taking out the regional final of the Push Start Battle of the Bands in Geelong at Courthouse ARTS recently, they are a band on the rise, and one to watch in the coming months.\nGeelong Revival Motoring Festival\nThe Geelong Revival Motoring Festival is on again and this year it is set to be bigger and better than ever. Now spanning across three days, the jam packed schedule will feature all things vintage from November 28 to 30. The event brings together hundreds of classic and exotic vehicles to Geelong\u2019s magnificent waterfront, along with racing, exhibits, entertainment, food, music and fashion.\nYou\u2019ve heard the whispers for months and now it\u2019s official \u2013 Florida\u2019s Sleepwave have been added to the 2015 Soundwave line up. \u201cWe\u2019re stoked!\u201d smiled front man Spencer Chamberlain when we caught up just ahead of the public announcement, \u201cI\u2019ve been quietly pushing for us to be on the tour for a while, and we\u2019re very very excited. I guess I can be quite persuasive!\u201d he laughed.\n\u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to playing Queenscliff Music Festival next weekend because we played it once before and we felt we were pretty bloody dreadful! So it\u2019ll be nice to come back and make amends.\u201d A promise made is a promise kept by Tim Powles, drummer of the legendary alt-rock outfit The Church.\nArchie Roach is a man that needs no introduction. Over the past twenty-five years, Roach has developed a unique style of storytelling that has woven its way into his many songs. Best known for his \u201990s tune \u2018Took The Children Away\u2019, which talks directly of experiences of his family being a part of the Stolen Generation, Roach was on tour with Rodriguez when I caught up to chat with him.\nAmidst yet another tour around Australia, we had a chat with high energy, blues and soul singer Shaun Kirk, and we were feeling a bit of deja vu, having talked to him only a few months ago under similar circumstances.",

        "raw_content": "INTP Complex > The World > News, Culture & History > Obama - Left, Right, Center?\nView Full Version : Obama - Left, Right, Center?\nI think Obama is a center politician, so there's my slant. Have a nice day.\nThat has nothing to do with the news. I don't agree with you on that but I see how you could come to that conculsion. The media portrays him often as not going far enough. However if you look at his polcies it clearly falls in the liberal realm. THe problem with american liberalism is it is more a postion advocating state sponsered welfare and general statism than classical liberalism.\nThe typical conservative point is not much better in my mind with the archaic support of church is schools and attempting to ban gay marriage.\nHowever if you look at his polcies it clearly falls in the liberal realm.\nDoesn't seem like that when you look at it from a non-US POV. I guess it all depends how your scale is calibrated.\nIt has everything to do with the fact that the political establishment in the USA has drifted right in the past 40 years, putting the increasingly liberal culture into sharp relief.\nhttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cgOtbUQGXcw/Ty7Ca71CznI/AAAAAAAADH4/Tmkrki-JvFA/s1600/presidents_common_space_1D.jpg\nhttp://voteview.com/blog/?p=284\nHere's a high-quality left news source for you: http://www.counterpunch.org\nidk all his policies, but if you look at his handling of something like immigration & deportation he's like the most right-wing the US has ever had. i definitely do not see him as anything close to left.\nI don't get the same view from your graph that you do then. To me it seems that the democrat politicians have generally stayed within the same range with only the republican candidates moving farther right. I don't see how this graph would show obama as a centrist he seems within the margin of error of the other democrats putting him solidly in the left. Is this graph only taking into social liberalism or economic liberalism as well?\nAlso thanks for the link to counter punch I just started reading a few articles and they make a lot of sense. I'll read them in the future.\nPersonally I am neither a conservative nor a liberal. I think polarizing youself on lines like that is simply stupidity. I think you need to examine every subject.\nI'm not going to lie I know very little about his immigration/deportation policies. However I think it is pretty rash to call him the most right wing PONTUS we have had. I do know they are having a serious problem in the south with immigration thats about all. Where I live we are not effected by it so I have little intrest.\nIs this graph only taking into social liberalism or economic liberalism as well?\nI'm not totally clear on this point, but I gather that this chart reflects government intervention into economic policies, including income redistribution.\nWell, I wouldn't have started this thread.\nIs it really a digression so much from discussing media bias? Now it's my duty to bring this thread back around to that topic.\nObama was upfront about his policy positions during the campaign season, but a lot of people ignored that in favor of wishful thinking.\nI don't agree with the meme that Obama deceived people. People deceived themselves, or didn't pay attention to being with.\nThe main problem was that he was not very clear on certain topics such as firearms. He did not make firearm restriction a point in his election campaign or talk about it frequently but then made it a major point of his presidency so far.\nI don't really care about firearms one way or the other, so I didn't really notice.\nTarget shooting and collecting antique firearms are my favorite hobbies so I take serious note of changes in politicians stances.\nObama was a freshman politician on the national scale, owing his meteoric rise far to much to the Democratic elite and the tremendous cult of personality that swelled around him. He was doomed from the start, having not the necessary political clout of a senior statesman to enact his own policies, and weathering under a mountain of unrealistic expectations by a disenfranchised yet self entitled generation that cries for the immediacy they receive on the internet.\nHowever I think it is pretty rash to call him the most right wing PONTUS we have had.\nthat isn't what i said, though.\nAbout as rash as Fox News equating him to the reincarnation of Che Guevara, I'd say.\nAlthough she didn't really say that.\nSeems we have a distributed media bias here on the internet.\n[SUCK IT STIG]\nHowever I think it is pretty rash to call him the most right wing PONTUS we have had in terms of immigration.\nI had not heard they called him that but I wouldn't doubt it. I don't watch much TV I mainly get my news from paper or the internet so I wouldn't know.\nThe simple multiple choice question is not so simple.\nThe definitions of right, left and center are relative to whether you look at it from US point of view or world point of view. Since world is so interconnected and US has significant impact both are valid.\nCenter, left and right are relative to public opinion on topics which are seen as one-dimensional independent variables. Public opinion on these is seen as a spectrum, a bell curve, with center, left and right deriving from position on bell curve.\nEach individual sees certain topics as being more important than others and tends to see their position as center. I think this explains why some see Obama as Lenin II while others see him as a better singing George W Bush (though W probably has him licked as painter).\nHowever, one can try to evaluate against overall public opinion.\nMy impression is Obama tries to do most things from the center. His healthcare reform was centrist, his foreign policy is a mixed bag reflecting general disillusion with foreign entanglements. His internal security stance strike me as right-ist compared with general opinion. On climate change he might be left-ist from a US standpoint.\nI dont see how having a lackadaisical immigration stance would be considered a right-wing stance, but then again I don't understand why a true conservative would want the state to outlaw drugs or abortions.\nPeople seem confused these days. In the context of politics, conservative is meant in reference to laws, i.e. conservative laws would lean toward more limits on what the government has the authority to tell you what to do or what not to do. In this sense, the democrat and republican (considering the assumption they are liberal and conservative respectively) stances on abortion and the drug war are completely asinine and ass-backwards. That is to say that the modern ideals behind conservatism and liberalism are fundamentally contradictory.\nBut, this is the only sense in which I could understand that Obama's immigration policy is right-leaning, i.e. he supports less strict rules administered by the feds.\nThat being said, I think right, left, and center have little real meaning aside from what the media ascribes to them. The terms conservative and liberal no longer describe a basic philosophy in regards to public policy. This is the result of the constant appeal to demographics in modern US politics. Religious fundamentalists want to keep their guns while telling women they shouldn't be having promiscuous sex, while hippies want to smoke pot and live in a idealistic dream world where everyone helps everyone all the time and its all peace, mannn.\nPolitics now are not about left, right, center. They are just labelled that way to create an allusion toward something that used to exist, but doesn't anymore.\nHe's a pragmatist and a tactician. It's so difficult to shove them into a box either way. I do believe that the right-wingers are finding out just how crazy it makes one sound to do so. (idiotic zealotry)\nI was surprised to see this does not seem to be the case. In an ideal world I would think it true.\nFrom Gallup Poll:\nhttp://content.gallup.com/origin/gallupinc/GallupSpaces/Production/Cms/POLL/heuaoauvcemsjsjbkmr7nw.png\nIt's terrible that those are the only choices we have.\nOn Election Day, yes. But the activist right-wingers understand that intraparty politics is where it's at. That's where they decide whose names go on the ballot, and what their agenda will be.\nI think Obama is a center politician\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMIy_KiBpKU\nYes it is, everything becomes a one dimensional issue.\nThe concentric center of fundraising in the known universe.\nMajor American politicians are usually centrists, because that's what you get from an exclusive two-party system--people who are so marginally interested that they can easily be persuaded to support one side or the other are more important voters than people with clear ideological loyalties.\nThis means that Obama is president because he's the kind of liberal who has appeal to people who don't consider themselves liberals. He hasn't really behaved like an ideologue because being an ideologue is a political weakness in the American system. Doing anything that makes it seem like you're committed to a specific agenda means your opponents will likely bring that up in targeted appeals to \"swing voters\" who might easily be nudged out of supporting you because they don't identify with that agenda.\nThis was happening all over in the last presidential election, where you had two highly centrist candidates running against each other. The Republican campaign harped on Obama being a \"socialist\" (which he plainly isn't--this is laughable) while the Democratic campaign harped on Romney being some sort of right-wing zealot (which he plainly isn't--this is equally laughable). It was like a contest to see who could mischaracterize their opponents' positions the most, with the point of that being to make the case that Their Guy is an ideologue, while Our Guy is just a regular reasonable dude you can trust to make realistic decisions.\nThe Tea Party thing seems like an exception to this, but their successes have been pretty specifically confined to House elections, where they benefit from gerrymandering. (You can't gerrymander a Senate district seeing how Senators represent entire states, and there isn't much of a Tea Party presence in the Senate.) In those cases there was a sort of ideological insurrection in the Republican party which worked because the Republican nominee would have had to try to lose the general election. However, you can see how this hasn't resulted in the Tea Party actually getting what they want so much as just monkey-wrenched the national legislative process (e.g. with the whole budget impasse last year), because the system as a whole runs on moderates edging out compromises that are ever-so-slightly more favorable to one side or the other, within a framework established by an underlying assumption that there is an official national orthodox ideology which shouldn't be departed from. Thus ideology tends to be kind of irrelevant, except in extreme situations (like the Depression, but 80 years later we're still dealing with a national political discourse framed around whether or not FDR was too much of an ideologue. And FDR was really something of a pragmatist technocrat, I would say.)\nThis was happening all over in the last presidential election, where you had two highly centrist candidates running against each other.

We're basically funding live testing of military defense technology that we'll be privy to.\nToo bad they're slashing all the arts funding.\n* Not that I approve of it, but it makes sense. While they're at it, they may as well have Israel test out all of our extreme beta technologies as well.\nhttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f4/Bloch_Sphere.svg/330px-Bloch_Sphere.svg.png\ndon't you bloch sphere me\nyou started it\nmaybe it's autotelic\nyou mean autotelic qua autotelic?\nhttp://i44.tinypic.com/e6vq8l.jpg\nhttp://www.vyralize.com/assets/2013/10/10-guy-02.jpg\nDude it's like inception but with my face\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYmn3Gwn3oI\nI'm a little confused as to how the president of the most powerful imperialist country in the world - with all of the military, political and economic intervention/extorsion that this implies for the majority of the planet - can be considered anything other than right-wing.\nUS politics seems to unfold in a tupperware container where the total absence of a left leads to some weird theory of relativity in which the least right-wing is considered left-wing by virtue of the fact that it simply measures itself against the most right-wing on a domestic level. This is absurd because it ignores the global stage, where actual right, left and center coexist. And the US cannot even be conceived of if not first and foremost as a global hegemon.\nBeing the goddamned Commander-In-Chief of the US Armed Forces is not a position that places you on the left of anything, let's get that clear. You don't arrive there by accident. You don't assume its tasks by accident. Everyone else in the world got the memo - Americans are the only ones who don't seem to be in on the \"secret\". This includes American progressives, who shouldn't be falling for that.\nFrom the perspective of a European, Obama - like all US politicians - is right wing.\nGood points, both. I think I meant domestically when I [stig] started this thread [for me].\nWell, there's a worldview present in the U.S that refuses to look very long about how money and power might be intertwined. This is present even among ostensibly \"left-wing\" groups and organization, even anarchists. I'm not saying I think Marxism is the answer, but the refusal of people to really talk about or look at this is frustrating to me. People consider it offensive if you say something like \"electing a woman president won't do anything about income inequality\". The issues with the distribution of power is not tied to money, but to the fact that the wrong groups have had power, so a lot of people believe that the only thing we need to do this is to put one of those disadvantaged groups in a position of power, and all other problems will solve themselves. People erroneously believe that anything wrong with the way society sees things is exclusively a product of white males being in power ( maybe the worldview was shaped by them, but it's hardly exclusive to white males any more.) , so they think that if you put someone other than a white male in power. the actual attitudes or beliefs of that person don't matter, and putting them in power is enough to effect a massive transformation of society.\nI won't say that can't have an inspirational effect, or have a positive effect in some respects, but I don't really think it has the impact people assume it has.\nThe problem is not that people look at, say, race or gender, but that they refuse to look at class (or other things that IMO we get pretty wrong, like the fear-driven security society, which is weird, because that ties into racism a great deal) . (And really, the historical reasons for people refusing to look at this are pretty obvious, because there have been at least two periods in this history where talking about this at all, whether you were a Marxist or not, was extremely unpopular, and even dangerous.) So it's not surprising that people will talk about animal rights before they will look at class or income inequality. People are more comfortable talking about cows and slaughterhouses than homeless people. Nobody wants to question the American Dream.\nPeople assume that income inequality, and trying to reduce it, results in a decreased standard of living, but there are countries that have less income inequality without everyone living in shacks. I suppose this would be true if it was pursued as an absolute, but I think the only people that would really witness a decrease would be plutocrats, and they'd still be doing pretty well for themselves, just not obscenely well.\nI'd say ideologically, I'm a democratic socialist, or social democrat, but that doesn't exist in this country.\nTLDR: I think the various Red Scares the U.S. went through had an impact that reverberates throughout the present day, even in the absence of any major scary commie threat. Power is usually seen as not a question of resources, or armies, but who has the microphone, and that's a mistake.\nYou know, I've heard this theory before, from an Iranian guy who taught a class on Middle Eastern history/politics/geography I took in grad school. He said the Israelis even have direct deals with American defense contractors where they basically get free samples of technology that's in the beta-test stage.\nIt's really not just right-wingers who want to keep the US-Israel relationship going, though. The US military-industrial complex is a globe-spanning operation that represents a constituency unto itself. Domestic politics only have so much to do with what the people running the overseas infrastructure of the empire want from the government back home. The left-right divide here can be a red herring in that respect. It will be interesting if we get a Tea Party-tinged Republican running against Hillary Clinton--in a furtive, fumbling manner, some Republican figures seem to be coming around to the realization that anti-imperialism is an idea with traction among a large portion of the electorate, but there's no way Clinton can credibly claim she isn't exactly the sort of politician that critics of the military-industrial system complain about.\nHe's center with evident leftist leanings, imo. Congress thinks differently though.\nHe's center with evident leftist leanings, imo.\nI wouldn't blame him. My penis is the same way when I have to wear jeans.\nThat made me burst into laughter at work. Thanks that was hilarious i needed that.\nYeah except some times they sell it to the chinese. That doesn't work.\nWe are always in some sort of military conflict we don't need the israelies to be our test bed.\nThis was from an american view point. so we are comparing the US left VS the US right not a global right vs left.\nThere was an article on the increasingly poor relations between the West and Russia in the New Yorker where someone in the State Department said they thought Obama was a realist - but he felt bad about it. That explains a lot of how he acts.\nin a furtive, fumbling manner, some Republican figures seem to be coming around to the realization that anti-imperialism is an idea with traction among a large portion of the electorate, but there's no way Clinton can credibly claim she isn't exactly the sort of politician that critics of the military-industrial system complain about.\nYes. The interesting thing is that isolationism's nadir came at exactly the point where an ideology (Marxism) actually offered the threat of overthrowing the US system from within and without. Islamism is a much harder sell for a long run imperialist project because of its essentially external character. An ironic consequence of Bush's actions is that he quickly realigned the notion of Islamism as an internal (terrorist) threat into one about foreign wars and imperialism, and so pretty much used up what reservoirs of jingoism he had from 9/11 in the Afghan and Iraqi adventures.\nHappy birthday Barack.\nhttp://i.imgur.com/CHIrF1W.jpg\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8tFaU571xg&list=RDb8tFaU571xg#t=14\nA true left is impossible in the USA right now, given the importance that corporate sponsorship plays in getting elected as the president. I would put Obama in the center-right.\nI think Obamas has left-wing sentiments. But he is a pussy, so he rolls over like an obedient dog to the demands of the ruling class, all the while confusing everyone with his brilliant speeches and contradicting decisions.\ncenter right. the vibe from him now and when he was first running for president is strikingly different. I'm more inclined these days to reconsider the theory that an out of control intelligence apparatus pulls the strings.\nThe Beef Industry Council and Beef Board?\nThink about it, when was the last time you saw one of these ads?\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tviyAIS9c_U\nMaybe they've moved on to other ways of pushing their agenda.\nupon fuhrther, and drunken recollection, there's two sides to any american president- domestic and foreign.\nobama is centrist in domestic issues, and center right on foreign ones. every president post ww2 has been a hawk, probably for fear of ending the apex of the US's arc through world affairs. the grand chessboard and all.\nI think his personal ideology is left-wing, and that he compromises a lot of his personal ideology for the sake of political pragmatism (i.e. meeting his opposition somewhere nearer the centre for the sake of getting things done). I also think people tend to assume he's the sole cause of everything the government does, so the public impression of Obama the Person gets erroneously conflated with the policies congress passes/blocks, with what the military, NSA & other branches of govt are doing, etc. It can be hard to figure out which parts genuinely reflect who he is, when we're only allowed to see the cultivated presidential face most of the time, and when the majority of what we're exposed to has been predigested by the media. But it's important to recognise that he's just one of the cogs in a very large & complex machine.\nThat is true. But a great president can go beyond that. Kennedy was acting against the advice from his staff during the Cuban missile crisis and it was he alone that kept the Cuba missile crisis from escalating.\nI think his personal ideology is left-wing, and that he compromises a lot of his personal ideology for the sake of political pragmatism (i.e. meeting his opposition somewhere nearer the centre for the sake of getting things done).\nI agree. I think no Americans are more politically pragmatic than African Americans.\nA lot has changed in politics since the 60s. Would Kennedy have been an effective president in a post-9/11 political climate?\nI'd like to think so. As far as I'm aware the president's authority hasn't been culled. But he wouldn't get to run for president today. You need many rich corporate friends who pay for your campaign.\nHe could have pulled missiles out of Turkey as a measure of de-escalation, and didn't.\nWhat is your point? I'm sure there were many moments in time when the arms race could have been stopped by either party.\nYou know, I'm not much for conspiracy theories and I don't mean this in that sense, but I think there's more than a grain of truth to this.\nIt's actually kind of an interesting emergent property of the presidency as an institution. Of course the size, scope, and power of the executive branch at the federal level has only grown and kept growing since the early 20th century, but I think with Obama and Bush we actually see less of the \"imperial presidency\" that people worried about during the Nixon years, and more the transformation of that segment of the state into a bureaucratic oligarchy with the president as its public face.\nWhat I mean is that both Bush and Obama strike me as inexperienced politicians who have tended to be notably deferential to professional managers of the federal executive department's various arms--people who are nominally their subordinates. Those seem to be the people actually making executive policy, under a presidency which doesn't seem to really steer them so much as ask what they want to do, perhaps vet their ideas to some extent, but then mainly step in as the person who has to explain those decisions to the public.\nBush was actually something of a skilled rhetorician, in his way. Obama, obviously, is a very skilled rhetorician by conventional standards. \"Chief Rhetorician for the Federal Bureaucracy\" increasingly strikes me as an important dimension of how to accurately characterize a contemporary president's actual systemic role.\nThat all makes sense when you consider that the permanent bureaucracy took decades to build up and will outlast any president. Perhaps the greatest influence any president can have on it is the people he appoints to it. It's the same as the federal courts, only fewer people notice.\nIt's an interesting hypothesis. As a cursory observation, it seems like the Democratic and Republican parties each have their set of people who they appoint into key positions once they assume the presidency. If they aren't the same people, they act as mentors of sorts. Rumsfeld, for instance, had served other Republican White Houses prior to Bush II.\nciphersort\nI agree - considering the supposed conservative backlash of recent US history, but because that backlash is actually extremist and authoritarian I place Obama on the right (Clinton as well) - if that makes any sense. If not oh well... it's not like our government makes sense.\nKhrushchev was the one that stopped the crisis, most would have demanded the removal of missiles from Turkey to at least be done publicly so they didn't seem weak. It even cost him his job eventually, few other world leaders would have made that risk, also some of the most important negotiations and information was done amongst spies. The whole crisis was precipitated by Kennedy's belligerence towards Cuba in the first place, Castro didn't start off a communist and might not have turned to the Soviets at all if Kennedy hadn't tried to destroy Cuba for what was initially just mild land reform. If it wasn't for the heavy handed reaction Castro wouldn't have been so justifiably fearful of a US invasion. The world got lucky we survived in spite of Kennedy.\nI see. And where do you get all of that from?\nNot trying to be beligerent here. I'm always learning about historical crap like that from american sources.\nI don't think any of that is outside the normal scope of history on the matter. there's that often reported quote about \"they just blinked\" which for the leader who 'blinked' according to all public statements didn't work out well and he must've known it wouldn't when he agreed to the deal and allowed the part about the missiles in Turkey to remain secret. Kennedy won a huge propaganda victory and they were taking the missiles out of turkey anyway so he didn't really concede anything, so Khrushchev really made all the concessions that made avoiding war possible. Castro toured the US months after getting into power so it was clear he wasn't into opposing the US for the sake of it. It's still pretty well standard American policy to try and crash any Latin American country that turns even slightly left wing, so the US's aggressive response to basic land reform really forced Castro deep into the arms of the Soviets, which even his communist advisers weren't thrilled with.\nThe US policy toward Third World countries during the Cold War created a self-fulfilling prophecy, as you noted with Cuba. The West refused to help people trying to oppose oppressive right-wing governments, so they turned to the only country that would: the Soviet Union.\nFrom my viewpoint, he seems a little bit right of center on everything, except unions. He's right up the ass of unions and he even likes the European Union and urges the UK to stay in.\nHe's numbnuts for unions. I've stood in a few high ranking union official's offices and seen his picture right up on the wall standing with the same guy I'm meeting with.\nMy own experience of unions is not positive. The collective bargaining isn't the same in the modern era as it was in the 1800s and 1900s, times have changed and with the shift from manufacturing industry to service industry, 'collective bargaining' is looking more like blackmail and government bankrolling for unprofitable/unsustainable sectors. Coal miners, steel workers, car manufacturers etc.\nPretty much the unions have been brought to heel almost everywhere. They might come to prominence again as I see inequality has just reached levels not seen since the 1820s.\nUnions will probably need to drastically re-tool themselves if they're going to remain relevant.\nIn the US, last I checked the big ones (AFL-CIO, etc.) actually represented about 8% of the work force, which pretty much makes them just another special-interest group and hardly the \"voice of the working class\" or anything of that sort.\nThe teachers' unions (a longstanding stalwart Democratic party constituency) don't particularly like Obama, which is interesting. I'm not sure how I feel about the teachers' unions, honestly, but then I'm pretty sure I dislike the same tendencies of Obama's that they don't like, albeit for what I think are different reasons. (He's embraced a \"school reform\" movement which is, IMO, mostly a sham and a cover for shady think-tanks to cynically eat up grant money for producing dubious \"solutions\" that are drastically inferior to well-known measures, like reducing student-teacher ratios, that would be fairly easy to implement were it not for the apparent political consensus against them.) I think the unions' perspective is mostly just reactionary at this point--digging in their heels, making excuses for the status quo, and lashing out at anyone who even uses words like \"reform\", all of which strikes me as myopic and misguided--but on the general point of thinking Obama's big ideas for education policy are a bunch of useless hooey, I'm in agreement with them to some degree.\nobama promised on the campaign trail to enact a pro-union law, and then proceeded to never say anything about it ever again. He also promised to reform NAFTA, another big union issue and again never said another word about it. He once said a nice thing about the 15/hr and a union fast food movement I think - I guess thats nice, but I think one nice comment over the course of 8 years is quite far from 'up the ass' of unions. His buddy emmanuel in chicago is now the bane of the teachers union entirely with talk of privatizations and semi-privatized voucher systems. I think the teachers unions are pretty reactionary because they have nowhere to go at this point - they've been so regulated and standardized tested and judged that they're backed into a corner and since every time the word reform is used it always seems to mean more testing and tighter standards and more vouchers - they don't get really any good options to take so the status quo is probably all they can shoot for unless they pick up their own vision for an education system outside of the parties somehow.\nUnions are changing with the years and I think the decline will ebb soon. American union law is designed only for big unions in large single workplaces, which is why public sector unions are some of the last big ones, they're the only major employers left that can't ship the jobs overseas. Them and the mines. The ban of secondary strikes and weird regulations means that all the retail and service workers who make up the bulk of the union typical crowd legally have little ground to stand on (for instance to unionize a single starbucks in Manhattan, a judge said workers would have had to get all the starbucks employees on the whole island of Manhattan to form a single union - given a ton of people who have zero connection to each other in hugely varying conditions its effectively a government ban). There's a shift to not officially union but actually union activity like the 15/hr campaigns and the our walmart stuff as well as some left wing unions in the retail sector.\nI agree with Limey. If you look at what he's actually done, he seems right-of-center. He's an exceedingly conservative individual, both politically and personally, and he seems to have a profound belief in the theory of American Exceptionalism. Then again, even Carter toed that line.\nI don't think you could become president if you didn't believe in American exceptionalism.\nI think it's unfortunate that the AFL-CIO squeezed out the Wobblies. I think it's sort of amazing that from the very beginning, they were open to everyone.\nThe wobblies are having a resurgence right now, a few campaigns like this IWW Rail Workers Strike To End Illegal Retaliation (http://chicagoist.com/2013/08/01/iww_rail_workers_strike_to_end_ille.php) going on, and a bunch of retail campaigns (starbucks and dominoes amongst the big names) which might not get shop recognition but still carry on doing union things. They're flexible to modern conditions where these sluggish old bureaucratic afl type unions are not.\nThat comment reminded me of this picture\nhttp://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/originals/6a/a4/7c/6aa47c0e80eef52cd6cbd5a3de8f2269.jpg\nhttp://www.bostonglobe.com/ideas/2014/10/18/vote-all-you-want-the-secret-government-won-change/jVSkXrENQlu8vNcBfMn9sL/story.html\nThough it\u2019s a bedrock American principle that citizens can steer their own government by electing new officials, Glennon suggests that in practice, much of our government no longer works that way. In a new book, \u201cNational Security and Double Government,\u201d he catalogs the ways that the defense and national security apparatus is effectively self-governing, with virtually no accountability, transparency, or checks and balances of any kind. He uses the term \u201cdouble government\u201d: There\u2019s the one we elect, and then there\u2019s the one behind it, steering huge swaths of policy almost unchecked. Elected officials end up serving as mere cover for the real decisions made by the bureaucracy.\nHey, that's what I said!\nGLENNON: The ultimate problem is the pervasive political ignorance on the part of the American people. And indifference to the threat that is emerging from these concealed institutions. That is where the energy for reform has to come from: the American people. Not from government. Government is very much the problem here. The people have to take the bull by the horns. And that\u2019s a very difficult thing to do, because the ignorance is in many ways rational. There is very little profit to be had in learning about, and being active about, problems that you can\u2019t affect, policies that you can\u2019t change.\nHey, I kind of said that too, in the other thread.\nYou obviously should be writing books.",

It was agreed I was only to be here for 2 months, and I'm upgrading my certifications while I am doing it.\nI'm working on getting my MS Certifications... The point of this post is that I trust you guys as much as I trust ANYONE on the net, so, if any of you are Microsoft Certified, tell me, is the official website useless. I'm used to the feeling of this stuff being too easy, but the requirements for passing the base test (Exam 70-625) seems almost too easy. Not worth the 300 they want for study material.\nPost subject: Re: A moment of frustration\nCan't help, I'm unemployed, living off a pension I managed to finagle from the Government and living at my parents house. I don't know anyone that has an MS, I'd recommend calling up/emailing any companies that have jobs available in that area and asking them if they need an MS cert, that will give you an idea as to how important they are versus whatever other certification you already might have. If, as you say, it looks too easy I'd say go for it, the cost might be high but at least you'll have the certification without having to do too much work for it, it might mean nothing to you but if employers want that crap you need to bite the bullet and do it.\nCertifications are always good. At the very least it gives the impression of you been an educated man.\nWell, I figured I go for an update here. Nearing the end of month one, I am about to take the exam spoken of, the parents aren't jumping at me ever opportunity, things are going good. Next week I'll be taking the test then looking for work. Bit of a list for a month's work...\nThis thread is over a year old. But if anyone needs help with resumes or mock interviews, I've had some training on giving interviews and reading resumes and what to ask or look for.\nMy university is obsessed with trying to get us to network so we get jobs after the degree is over. So I think that I'll be okay, but I'm not planning on looking for work for the next few months at least. Thanks for the offer however.\nWell, eventually I joined a school, procrastinated the hell out of it, and now am looking for a job with barely any improvement to my credentials. At least I can say I've completed post-secondary.\nLiving on my own now. We'll see if that lasts.",

However, the Spanish club were faced with a registration ban, meaning any incoming players couldn\u2019t play until January 2018, thus preventing Los Rojiblancos from replacing any departing players.\nDespite opting for a contract renewal by the end of the window, many claim that the world-class forward is on the prospect of leaving the club for Manchester United \u2013 which has been shot down by Atl\u00e9tico\u2019s president.\nSpeaking to the press ahead of next week\u2019s Madrid derby, Cerezo went on to say: \u201cWe have put in a lot of effort to keep him and to keep all the players. The problem Griezmann has had is that a series of news stories about other important European clubs wanting him has not benefited him.\u201d\n\u201cGriezmann is and will be an Atl\u00e9tico player. He is an important player and at an important club and he wants to win titles with Atl\u00e9tico.\u201d\n\u201cHe may have had a start to the season which could have been better, but there is a lot left of the La Liga season for him to show how important he is for the club and how important football is for him.\u201d\n\u201cWhat important player doesn\u2019t play this kind of game [linking himself to another club in order to boost his contract position]?

        "raw_content": "Indonesia map:\nDhaka, Kathmandu and all sorts of insanity\nPalau Weh, Indonesia\nI spent 5 weeks there, it definitely needs a journal entry, but I'm lacking the motivation right now. I'm going to write about other, more recent adventures and eventually fill in 5 weeks of relaxation and diving.\nA preview of India. The discount flight from Bangkok to Kathmandu conveniently has a 15 hour stopover in Dhaka. Convenient that is only if you want to catch a quick glimpse of Bangladesh. I did. Someone described Bangladesh as \"India, only more so\". 113 million people packed into a little dot on the map. Some travelers hate India. Most describe it as an amazing experience, but exhausting. With our minibus to and from the airport and luxury (relatively) hotel we were almost completed isolated from the hordes. Almost completely. Here is a quick summary of my Bangladesh experience. Arrive in the airport with hordes of people crammed against the arrivals gate, drive past crowds of people filling the streets, sleep in our very empty western hotel, fight our way through a massive traffic jam of pedicabs and tuk-tuks and the fly out.\nA preview of India indeed. People everywhere and general mayhem, but I think that I'm going to like it. I contemplated staying in Bangladesh to try to see some tigers. There are apparently a lot as they have killed 22 people already this year (a new record). I didn't contemplate staying for long. India is coming up soon enough, I'm excited about Nepal which also has some tigers and I've got a mountain to go climb.\nI had my 3 great goals - swimming from Alcatraz, completing an ironman and climbing to Everest base camp. I really wanted to limit myself to these 3 goals realizing that any more difficult challenge would undoubtedly contain an even great risk of loss of life or limb.\nWell, from the moment that Dave or Marc (both claim credit) said \"You should climb Kilimanjaro\", the concept of stopping after the 3 goals was shot all to hell. The highest point in Africa. The tallest free standing mountain in the world. Wow! And it seems doable - It's only 500 meters higher than Everest base camp. I do of course realize that this could lead to other stupider, or at the least more dangerous, goals. There is the well publicized climbing of the 7 highest summits of the 7 continents. It isn't my goal yet, but I realize that it could be someday. I scare myself.\nWar Zone Tourism\nSpeaking of danger - It wasn't my plan to hang out in lots of war zones. I was just looking for cheap interesting places without tons of tourists. For the most part, these places seem to happen to be war zones. From Aceh with it's 35 years of constant conflict to Nepal with it's Maoist uprising and hundreds if not thousands dead in the last 6 months. As you are leaving the airport the first thing that you see is a soldier standing guard. He's standing in a sandbag bunker keeping watch with a massive machine gun.\nMany tourists are staying away from Nepal. I'm not particularly worried though. No one is hunting for tourists and as far as I know no tourists have been hurt. Many months ago I wrote about Bukit Lawang, Indonesia. I realize now that the experience I had was directly attributable to the fact that I ignored my embassies strongly worded warnings and stayed in Indonesia. With two park rangers and myself at the daily feeding session the Orangutans greatly outnumbered us. It was absolutely amazing and one of the best travel experiences I've had anywhere. Others who have been to Bukit Lawang before or since had experiences that paled in comparison. The all were escorted in big groups to see the Orangutans who kept somewhat of a distance. I can't be sure how this civil war will affect the time I spend in Nepal, but I'm guessing that it will be a net positive. There will certainly be a lot fewer trekkers on the mountain.\nMt. Madness and Sudden Reality\nFor the weeks leading up to my flight to Nepal I was focused on Kilimanjaro. I had all but forgotten about Everest. It was too near of a goal for me to think about. Then, the 2nd day in Nepal a shock suddenly hits me - You're climbing to more than 5500 meters (18,000 ft). You have no idea what you're doing, no idea what you'll need and if you didn't bring gloves (or anything else that you might need) up the mountain you'll have to live without them. Losing fingers or toes and falling down cliffs are real dangers at 4000 meters let alone 5500.\nSince that initial shock I've been getting my act together. Through research and shopping over the last few days I've exhausted myself, but I'm getting close to ready. I have most of the gear that I think I'm going to need. I have maps, an Everest trekking guide and most of all a very tentative plan. I'm still hoping to find someone to join me.\nLeaving Monday or Tuesday I take a bus to Jiri. From Jiri it's a week or so of \"warmup\" - ups and downs totaling 8500m of climbing! By the time that I reach Namche Bazar at 3440 meters I'll be very strong, but probably also very tired. I'll rest a few days at Namche, probably taking a few day trips to stretch out the legs. Then it's up, up, up with a few rest days to Gorak Shep at 5140 meters. That's the highest point that I'll be sleeping. If all is going well I'll take one day trip to base camp, and another up to the top of Kala Pattar (5550 meters) which has better views than base camp. On the way back down I'd like take the somewhat treacherous Cho La pass which would take me once again up above 5000 meters then down to the Gokyo valley with splendid lakes and views. Taking this pass depends on a lot of factors including my health, the weather and my ability to find a guide. From Gokyo it should be a nice walk back down to Namche Bazar. One days walk from Namche is Lukla where I should be able to fly back to Kathmandu. It's a very very ambitious plan, but I'm going to go slow and see how far I make it. Wish me luck!\nP.S. I'm far more focused on the mountains that lie ahead than I am on Kathmandu, but Kathmandu is great. One of the best places I've been. I'll have to take more time to appreciate it after I return from the trek.",

        "raw_content": "Earlier this month, I had a unique opportunity to travel with the Gemba team to San Francisco, CA for the launch of DJI Enterprise\u2019s first-annual Airworks conference \u2013 a networking event for software developers, business partners, and public safety officials to share and gather insight about the evolving UAV industry.\nDJI Enterprise tapped Gemba to plan, develop, brand, and execute Airworks from start to finish, all within a one-month timeframe. It was a challenge, to say the least, but it was also an adventure; a crazy, caffeine-filled adventure that resulted in the coming together of more than 350 industry leaders, all of who are contributors to the expanding ecosystem of drone technology. In other words, it was a wild success, and we can\u2019t wait to do it all over again next year.\nThough, as a young copywriter with little no UAV knowledge, I felt a little out of my league, what with all the advanced aircraft and tech talk circulating throughout the room. These devices and the people developing them are paving the way for a more secure, more functional future, and witnessing the inner-workings of such a thriving industry was an eye-opening, humbling experience that pretty much blew my mind.\nIn between running the registration table, answering attendee questions, and transporting heavy things from one place to another, I snuck in to one of the breakout sessions presented by Thomas Calvert, Captain at the Menlo Fire Department in Menlo Park, CA.\nCalvert provided insightful information on public safety and the ways in which drone technology assists fire departments and their rescue and relief efforts.\nCurrently, drones are used by fire departments to collect vantage point images for accurate assessment, as well as detect thermal activity, allowing firemen to locate survivors and pinpoint the source of the fire. Thanks to this type of technology, fire departments across the country have gained critical assistance in their search-and-rescue missions.\nBut like all things, there\u2019s room for improvement.\nCalvert expressed a need for a tracking device via drone that would allow the incident commander to receive updates and precise whereabouts of every active firefighter, both inside and outside of the building or disaster site. He also suggested software developers create drones that emit a powerful stream of light for nighttime missions or areas of dense smoke. Typically, firefighters walk through the front door of the burning building and find themselves engulfed in darkness, so a reliable light source would be exponentially better than whatever device they\u2019re currently using.\nOne thing I observed while listening to Calvert\u2019s presentation is how eager drone software developers are to help. Almost everyone in the room had a question for Calvert, asking what they can do to make fire department efforts more efficient and more impactful. Drones are powerful tools, and in an environment where lives are on the line, it\u2019s imperative that our ecosystem of software developers continues to communicate, network, and learn more about what needs to be done both on the ground and in the air.\nFrom agriculture to construction to public safety, the UAV industry has only scratched the surface of how this type of technology can assist our environment, our economy, and our lives. In an industry that\u2019s projected to grow from $9 billion to $125 billion in the next three years, there\u2019s no doubt that the future of drone technology is looking up (excuse the pun).\nThe DJI Airworks conference marked the beginning of something big, and, for Gemba Marketing, it was an honor and a joy being a part of it all.",

        "title": "Town of Genoa, Nevada USA - Genoa Founded",
        "raw_content": "by Billie J. Rightmire - Genoa Town Historian and Fourth Generation Genoan\nIn June of 1850, H.S. Beatie and his party camped at a location now known as Genoa. They learned from traders passing by their camp that a heavy emigration was expected through the area. So Beatie and his men got busy and built a two room, double logged, one story house, 20 X 60 feet, without floor or roof.\nThe Genoa Museum, above, was the original county court house, then a school and now a link to the past. For historic building details, visit Douglas County Historical Society.\nThey also built a corral for their animals. Beatie and Abner Blackburn crossed the mountains into California with an extra 3 yoke of cattle to sell or trade for supplies they intended to sell to immigrants passing by their trading post. They brought back flour, dried fruit, bacon, sugar and coffee to the post, although their principal trade was in horses and mules.\nRemembering the April 1846 Donner Party tragedy, Beatie and his party did not want to chance the winter in the Valley so they abandoned their trading post in September and returned to Salt Lake City where Beatie clerked in the J. & E. Reese Mercantile.\nThe first permanent settlement was established in the spring of 1851 by Colonel John Reese, a Mormon, who planned to open a trading post on the overland trail. He was a partner with his brother Enoch in the J. & E. Reese Mercantile firm at Salt Lake City. The party arrived in Carson Valley with 13 wagons loaded with eggs, bacon, flour, seed grain and other kinds of seeds. Stephen A. Kinsey, Reese's nephew, acted as guide. Kinsey stopped for a time at a place on the Carson River called Ragtown. This point did not seem favorable so he moved up the river into one of the most fertile of valleys. On July 4, 1851, Kinsey waited for his party at Beatie's old trading post.\nOn November 12, 1851, the settlers formed and organized a settler's or squatter's government. It was impossible to settle a legal matter or send records back to Salt Lake City, 500 miles away because Indians, bandits, thieves and desperados took advantage of riders on the trail. The settlers adopted rules for taking up land and elected John Reese recorder and treasurer. Reese recorded the first claim for himself in December of 1852 in the new Utah Territory settlement he named Mormon Station (Genoa).\nResolutions, by-laws, rules for water rights, officers to be elected and many other acts took place in Genoa to build a solid and lasting community. Many passing emigrants stayed in the valley and recorded land.\nThe first principal business was trading. Those who settled in Genoa traded garden produce to travelers for whatever was usable. During these early years, the Genoa people established their church, businesses, a school, political institutions and developed extensive ranch lands. The Genoa Post Office was established December 10, 1852 with the appointment of E. F. Barnard as postmaster; the first important land and Carson River water rights were taken up at Genoa, the first printed newspaper - The Territorial Enterprise was founded.\nIn 1854, a school was opened in Israel Mott's home a few miles south of Genoa. Mrs. Eliza Mott, wife of Israel, was the first white woman to settle in Carson Valley and Mottsville was named for this early day family. Other families began to arrive and set down their roots in the new settlements on the west side of the Carson River.\nMormon leader Brigham Young sent Orson Hyde to Mormon Station in 1854 to survey a town site, determine the California boundary and set-up a government. Hyde changed the name of the surveyed town site to Genoa supposedly in honor of Christopher Columbus' birthplace, Genoa, Italy. The Mormons were called back to Salt Lake City in 1857 to help defend the church against threatened action by the Unites Stated Government. By this time there were gentile families, as well as Mormons, settling in Carson Valley. Most of the faithful left, but some Mormons stayed.\nOn March 2, 1861, Congress passed an \"Act\" creating the Territory of Nevada. On November 25, 1861, nine counties were named: Esmeralda, Douglas, Ormsby, Washoe, Lyon, Storey, Lake, Humboldt and Churchill. Nevada became a State on October 31, 1864.\nThe first courthouse was built in Genoa and opened for county business in 1865. It was built by contractors Lawrence Gilman and Rufus Adams for less than $20,000. T. J. Furbee, who was superintendent of the Sierra Mining Company, was the architect. This brick building is still standing today, owned by the Carson Valley Historical Society, and houses a museum of early Carson Valley history.\nGeneration after generation very proudly contributed to the progress and growth of Genoa, Carson Valley and Douglas County, an oasis in the desert.\nPlan a visit to Genoa and learn more about this thriving historical settlement!\nGenoa has a unique, old-fashioned Western atmosphere that lends itself to many events such as weddings, parties and gatherings.\nVisit these other Genoa attractions:\nMormon Station State Park and Museum",

        "raw_content": "Winter is Coming! Business Confidence Index Q4 2018\nOverall, the BCI lost 5.5 points compared to Q3 2018. Expectations in the private sector in Georgia decreased by 14.1 percentage points and dropped to 50.1 index points (up from 64.2 points in Q3). Business performance over the past three months decreased, reaching nearly 28.0 points (decreasing from 38.2), indicating a downturn in production/turnover/sales. The synergy of worsening performance in the past three months and lower expectations have led to a drop in the overall BCI.\nThe BCI index worsened in manufacturing (-55.0), construction (-12.4), agriculture (-10.7) and other (-13.5) sectors. The retail trade, service and financial sectors improved by 5.8, 2.3 and 1.3 points, respectively.\nBusiness confidence in the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased for large firms (-8.1) and improved for SMEs (+8.0). Less optimism and weak performance of the large firms outweighed the improved performance of SMEs and resulted in a decrease of -5.5 in overall BCI.\nBusinesses\u2019 actual performance decreased by -10.2 compared to the second quarter of 2018. In the Q4 2018 reporting period, sales (production or turnover) of the 131 firms surveyed decreased from 38.2 (Q3 2018) to 28.0(Q4 2018).\nA significant decrease in performance was observed in the manufacturing (-79.9), construction (-59.1), agriculture (-48.7) and other (-43.9) sectors. A significant decrease means that in these sectors, the weighted balance between positive and negative responses decreased compared to the previous quarter. In the remaining two sectors, production/turnover/sales for the past three months improved: retail trade (+13.4) and service (10.1) sectors.\nThe Expectations Index decreased by 14.1 index points in the fourth quarter of 2018. Expectations about the next three months improved for the retail trade (+23.4), construction (+5.4) and other (+52.0) sectors. The remaining sectors expect worsening the situation. The highest decrease was reported in the manufacturing and financial sectors\nThe majority (59%) of surveyed businesses do not expect any changes in employment over the next three months. Furthermore, 31% of firms stated that they would employ more employees in the future.\n51% of the surveyed firms expected that the economic condition of their businesses would improve over the next three months, and 36% did not expect any changes in the future, while a lower share of businesses expect their business conditions to worsen.\nSales Prices Expectations\nThe Sale Price Expectation Index increased from 10.3 points (Q3 2018) to 17.5 points (Q4 2018). The improvement in the Index is driven by an increase in the manufacturing, retail trade and agriculture sectors. The manufacturing, construction and other sector expects a noticeable decrease in prices over the next three months.\nThe majority (75%) of all surveyed firms are not going to change the prices they charge over the next three months. Only 7% of firms expect to decrease prices, and 19% expect to increase prices in the future.\nA low level of consumption activities and lack of access to financing continue to be two of the most significant obstacles for businesses. From a total of 131 firms participating in the survey, 29% of large sized firms and 30% of SMEs noted that lack of access to finance was their main obstacle. Meanwhile, 6% of large firms and 32% of SMEs chose lack of demand as the main limiting factor for further business development.\nIt should be noted that the BCI results presented here may be overestimated, as the survey only covers businesses currently operating, and not those that have already exited the market. Firms still in operation are more likely to have a negative outlook to some extent.",

        "raw_content": "Or pure ignorance.\nWe live in a world of increasing diversity, or rather in a world where diverse groups actually come into contact with one another on a regular basis. There are many ways to respond to this but we can plot the spectrum in three points. First is acceptance and even enjoyment. I had some of the best food I ever ate at a Thai owned gas station in the heart of Alabama last week. The second is a simple neutral acknowledgement with little engagement. Finally there is fear and even hatred (Fear almost always leads to Hate.) We call this xenophobia, fear of the strange(r).\nTo put it simply, xenophobia is the idea that if it is different it must be bad.\nTake for instance this sign that showed up on the side of the road in Louisiana.\nLocal authorities get flooded with calls about \"Arabic threats\" and \"possible terror message.\"\nWhy? Because they didn't recognize it and therefore it must be bad.\nIt is Hebrew. It says \"Welcome home, Yamit.\" Now admittedly it looks like it was written by a child and I wouldn't expect the average person to read (I was only a C+ Hebrew student myself) or even recognize Hebrew; but I do expect people not to freak out just because they see a sign in a foreign language!\nThere is also an inherent bit of egotism going on here. Not just the idea that one's own culture must be the best, but that somehow you are important enough that some foreign person would actually conspire against you.\nMuch like with an acrophobe who is forced to jump out of an airplane, the only real cure for xenophobia is exposure. However, unlike the guy who jumps out of a plane - who at worst is going to have a heart attack - exposure to other cultures might actually do something really dangerous. Like change you.\nPart of what I am trying to do with this blog is explain the world to you. Show you that it is not so scary. Sure there is bad stuff in it. But you need to understand that you cannot paint people with a broad brush. You shouldn't be afraid of someone just because they are different.\nEat the gas station Thai food. Go get coffee with your LGBT coworker. Help your Muslim neighbor paint his house. Ask the Buddist how he gets his vegetables to grow like that around here.\nNot only will you be a better person for it, you will be a better person of faith for it as well.",

Additional energy is extracted from the engine exhaust by an innovative technique that considers the fluctuations in exhaust pressure over small time periods and adjusts the nozzle vane positions (see picture) in a way that is synchronised with the exhaust fluctuations.\nThe innovation increases the available power from the turbocharged engine by up to 20%. In addition, the use of the ACT turbo charger control produces a gain in thermal efficiency of the engine in the order of 2%, as more energy is extracted from the engine exhaust, which in turn increases the useable energy which can be obtained from a given mass of fuel. Key features for ACT technologies are:\nUp to 7% exhaust energy recovered by turbine\n5% increase in engine brake power\n0.5% increase in thermal efficiency\nPotential for engine downsizing by 20%\nThese turbocharger improvements will benefit all applications of turbocharged internal combustion engines, this effect is especially valuable to stationary power and other applications where operation is fairly constant and running costs are key business drivers. Imperial is looking to license this technology to leading turbocharger manufacturers.\nThe development of the technology is currently being supported by Imperial Innovations and the Imperial Carbon Trust Incubator. A business development manager has been engaged to attract and negotiate with potential licensees for the technology.\nIf you are interested in this technology, please do not hesitate to contact us:\nRicardo Martinez-Botas tel: +44 (0)20 7594 7241\nApostolos Pesiridis tel: +44 (0)20 7594 1618\nBrian Graves tel: +44 (0)20 7594 6598",

        "title": "Manmohan Singh Government allows FDI in Retailing with only 30% sourcing from India - i.e. up to 70% sourcing allowed from China",
        "raw_content": "HT Editorial\nAmendment of conditions in the policy on Foreign Direct Investment in single-brand product retail trading\nThe Cabinet has approved the proposal of the Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion for amendment of the existing policy on Foreign Direct Investment in Single-Brand Product Retail Trading.\nVide Press Note 1(2012 Series) dated 10.1. 2012, Government had permitted FDI, up to 100%, in single brand product retail trading, subject to specified conditions, including, interalia, the conditions that:\n(i)\tThe foreign investor should be the owner of the brand.\n(ii)\tIn respect of proposals involving FDI beyond 51%, 30% sourcing would mandatorily have to be done from SMEs/ village and cottage industries artisans and craftsmen. 'Small industries' would be defined as industries which have a total investment in plant & machinery not exceeding US $ 1.00 million. This valuation refers to the value at the time of installation, without providing for depreciation. Further, if at any point in time, this valuation is exceeded, the industry shall not qualify as a 'small industry' for this purpose. The compliance of this condition will be ensured through self-certification by the company, which could be subsequently checked, by statutory auditors, from the duly certified accounts, which the investors will be required to maintain.\nThe CCEA has approved modification of the above mentioned conditions, for the activity of single brand product retail trading, as under:\n(i)\tOnly one non-resident entity, whether owner of the brand or otherwise, shall be permitted to undertake single brand product retail trading in the country, for the specific brand, through a legally tenable agreement, with the brand owner for undertaking single brand product retail trading in respect of the specific brand for which approval is being sought. The onus for ensuring compliance with this condition shall rest with the Indian entity carrying out single-brand product retail trading in India. The investing entity shall provide evidence to this effect at the time of seeking approval, including a copy of the licensing/ franchise/sub-licence agreement, specifically indicating compliance with the above condition.\n(ii)\tIn respect of proposals involving FDI beyond 51%, sourcing of 30%, of the value of goods purchased, will be done from India, preferably from MSMEs, village and cottage industries, artisans and craftsmen, in all sectors, where it is feasible. The quantum of domestic sourcing will be self-certified by the company, to be subsequently checked, by statutory auditors, from the duly certified accounts which the company will be required to maintain. For the purpose of ascertaining the sourcing requirement, the relevant entity would be the company, incorporated in India, which is the recipient of FDI for the purpose of carrying out single-brand product retail trading.\nAmendment in the condition relating to brand-ownership has been felt necessary, in view of the fact that, globally, single brand retailers often adopt a variety of business models, wherein the brand owning entity and investor entities are kept separate, even though in some cases, they may be having the same parent. Some single brand retailers adopt models where there is no link between the investing arm and the brand owning arm. In such cases, the brand owner entity could issue an exclusive licence/franchise to the investor entity, to use the brand for the purpose of retail trading, either globally or for a specific region, through appropriate agreement/(s). Such business models were not found to be in consonance with the condition that the foreign investor should be the brand owner. In view of the fact that the global business models do not strictly conform to this condition, a number of investors, who would otherwise have looked at investments in India, may not be able to do so. Therefore, keeping in view the constraints being faced by genuine foreign investors with different business models, as mentioned above, it would facilitate investment if this condition is liberalised. However, in order to address the concern that more than one franchisee/licensee may apply for undertaking SBRT for the same brand, which could lead to difficulties in monitoring compliance and fixing responsibility for non-compliance of the specified conditions, it has been mandated that, only one non-resident entity, whether owner of the brand or otherwise, shall be permitted to undertake single brand product retail trading in the country, for the specific brand, through a legally tenable agreement, with the brand owner in respect of the specific brand for which approval is being sought. The onus for ensuring compliance with this condition shall rest with the Indian entity carrying out single-brand retail trading in India. The investing entity shall provide evidence to this effect at the time of seeking approval from Government, including a copy of the licensing/ franchise/sub-license agreement, specifically indicating compliance with the above condition.\nRegarding the condition that 30% sourcing be mandatorily done from Indian small industry, investors have pointed out that it would be difficult to comply with this condition in the case of very specialized/high technology items. Global single brand retailers are often engaged in the business of retailing specialty/high-tech products. Such products are niche products, wherein it may not be viable for the foreign investors to build capacities wherever they engage in retailing, owing to the specialized requirements of quality and precision which the local small industry may not be able to provide. Investors are, therefore, of the view that the condition of 30% mandatory sourcing from Indian small industries/ village and cottage industries, artisans and craftsmen, is acting as a deterrent to the desired foreign investment in this activity.\nThe other category of products relate to the entire range from household appliances, utensils, furniture, crockery to furnishings, etc. These products are far more amenable to sourcing from MSMEs, village and cottage industries, artisans and craftsmen. Therefore, the proposed modification of the condition is envisaged to take into account the circumstances of both the specialized/high technology niche products, as well as the general category, covering a wide range of items. The fact that 30% domestic sourcing is being mandated would imply that the single brand retailers would have to build production capacities in the country, either in existing units, or set up new ones, catering specifically to their sourcing requirements. Hence, even the 30% domestic sourcing is expected to develop production capacities in the country, with the attendant global best practices, relating to design, production and quality. Since single brand retailers are global players, Indian suppliers and vendors to these retailers would have an opportunity of becoming a part of their global supply chains. Thus, Indian products could find their way in the stores of these single brand retailers located in other countries, thereby augmenting exports from India as well.\nThus, the amended condition relating to sourcing of 30%, of the value of goods purchased, being done from India, preferably from MSMEs, village and cottage industries, artisans and craftsmen, in all sectors, where feasible, is expected to benefit Indian producers, including the Indian handicrafts sector, which provides livelihood to millions and is important from the point of low capital investment, high value-addition and high potential for export, as also to meet the critical need to integrate Indian producers with the domestic and global markets. Skill integration with craftsmen abroad is likely to help develop synergies with international brands and generate more employment. The consequential benefits, arising from the integration of global best practices in management, along with global standards in quality, design, packaging and production, would help build capacities of local producers, by making it worthwhile for them to scale-up their production, thereby creating a multiplier effect on employment and income generation. This would also lead to up-gradation of technology, which, in turn, would have a further multiplier effect on the economy.\nPost Date:9/14/2012 8:10:50 AM\nUpdate Date:9/14/2012 8:25:05 AM Validity:36500 Days",

The Federal Reserve, however, is reluctant on the rising rates instead of taking a stance on the subject like it had been doing.\nIs the entity concerned about the market utility this question arose following the events witnessed in the first month of 2019? Is the organization countering the criticism it has faced over the rise of interest if they increased the rates more in 2019? The entity says that raising rates is a part of the normalization of the currency and the general economy.\nThe economists are projecting that the recession might hit the US economy\nThe bottom line of this is that that the US Reserve is an independent entity which cannot be influenced by other entities including the government and the president. There have been rising skepticism however that the organization might be under the influence of certain people in Wall Street and Capitol Hill.\nThe consumer should, however, know the basic information on the currency as it influences various factors within the economy which include the strength of the dollar and the general economy. With all these factors, which might result in depreciation, buyers are advised to buy gold coins since they are least likely to depreciate.\nThe country is speculated that it might be headed to another period of recession which will result in unfavorable economic position for the consumers. Gold, however, does not get affected by recession or bad economic times which is why owning gold is a good idea at the moment.\nGold might save you in hard economic periods\nFinancial institutions might start preparing for a turn down in the financial sector and the economy in general.

During this decade, however, its use has reduced greatly, but in the past centuries, it has proven to be useful in preserving wealth.\nAs the world struggles in hard financial times, this might be a time for the potential of gold as a currency and wealth storing method to be adopted.

The looming impact has positioned many firms for short sales, which is quite unpredictable and unfortunate. This has hit even the distinguished real estate companies in UK, including the NewRiver (NRRT.L) and Intu (INTUP.L). The home developers like McCarthy & Stone (MCS.L) and Crest Nicolson (CRST.L) are also among those that are positioned for short sales. The outcome is by no chance a coincidence considering that it is affecting firms across all indexes. However, Graham Edwards, a prominent investor and the Chief Executive Officer of Telereal Trillium, has been committed to building a commercial real estate territory that is based on informed policies.\n(gazetteday)\nTrillium was launched in 1997 with the aim of facilitating management and acquisition of a huge complex through a contract with UK\u2019s Work and Pensions Department. The complex is close to 27 million square foot, and Trillium was to sign a 20-year property supervision contract for it in the subsequent year. It is through that contract that a foundation was laid for a company that would become one of the regime\u2019s largest contractors. The firm grew at a rapid speed for the first two years, and this caught many investors\u2019 attention. The company undertook several deals courtesy of Graham Edwards, which include purchase by Land Securities in 2001 and the partnership with BT Group PLC.\nEven as challenges continue hitting the real estate market, Edwards believes all is not lost. He is out to develop policies aimed at promoting real estate enterprises and at the same time limiting the role of the state. Additionally, these strategies also focus on the growth of institutions and families for a strong society. Graham Edwards believes that when such entities flourish, then the future will be more prosperous. Having led Telereal Trillium for over twenty years, Edward has been tapped to head the initiative by the Center for Policy Studies (CPS). The program focuses on policy making in regard to what awaits Britain after Brexit.\nPosted on February 12, 2019 February 14, 2019 Categories Business, Business News, FinancialLeave a comment on Graham Edwards Fights For A Stable Real Estate Market Beyond Brexit\nNetwork marketing on a global level is not easy by any means. It is hard for some entrepreneurs to market in their own city, state or country. It takes a lot more effort to dominate and become a global network marketing leader. That could be the reason why Bernardo Chua is recognized as much as he is. He has done a considerable amount of global marketing with Organo Gold, and this company has been very profitable from Asia to America and it is still growing.\nA large portion of the reasons for this growth have to do with the fact that this coffee came on the market as something that was consider to be a novelty. When people initially heard of Organo Gold, coffee that could possibly contain a healing agent, it seemed like something that was impossible to grasp. It also appeared to be something that would not be long-lasting and successful largely because no one wants coffee that is considered healthy. At least this is the common perception that many people had before Organo Gold became the success that it is today. Read more about Bernardo Chua on Caja Mediterraneo\nWhat Bernardo Chua has realized much more so than anything else is that he is someone that is enabling other entrepreneurs that are selling the Organo Gold products to engage in network marketing and build their own income string. He has promoted this brand as a gourmet coffee brand long before other products came along. That could be is strong hold on network marketing. He knows that you cannot expand brand a bring other products into the environment until you have successfully sold people on your initial idea. He knew the real key to help people to take interest in Organo Gold coffee would be the beginning of his ability to get people to consider other products from the Organo Gold brand.\nTo learn more about Bernardo Chua, click here: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/bernardo-chua-b96b54aa\nPosted on February 10, 2019 February 5, 2019 Categories Businessman, Entreprenuer, Founder, organo goldLeave a comment on Bernardo Chua Becomes Network Marketing Guru\nAmong many successful businessmen, Wes Edens has truly proved himself more than capable to handle any kind of business.

The decline follows the four-day rally that led people to believe a comeback was emerging. News about a potential economic slowdown didn\u2019t help the Dow Jones\u2019 cause. Shervin Pishevar, the tech investor and entrepreneur, probably wasn\u2019t surprised the market took a hit. As we approach the first anniversary of his 21-hour tweet storm, we see he didn\u2019t have much faith in the overall strength of the market.\nShervin Pishevar is an optimistic venture capitalist. He saw the potential in Uber and was one of the rideshare company\u2019s earliest investors. Today, Uber revolutionized the way people get around. The expensive world of the taxi industry no longer has a monopoly on transportation services. Pishevar doesn\u2019t only look at the success potential of a company to make evaluations though. He has to look at the downsides. This way, he can determine what particular companies are the ones worth investing funds. In his famous tweet storm, Shervin Pishevar revealed he lacks faith in the stock market. The entrepreneur believes the market might be primed to experience a 6,000-point drop.\nThe amount of wealth wiped out by this level of a drop would undermine the economies of many countries. Jobless rates could soar. The personal net worth of many individuals could collapse.\nThe mere thought of a 6,000-point drop is frightening. At one time, investors would scoff at the notion. The market collapse of 2008, however, opened people\u2019s eyes to the danger of an unstable market. Right now, with trade wars, a U.S. government shutdown, and a declining Chinese economy, the global markets might be facing severe instability.\nA 300-point drop isn\u2019t cataclysmic, but it could send a scary message to anyone assuming the market\u2019s decline is over. Truthfully, no one knows what direction the market is going. The landscape seems unpredictable. Perhaps that is one reason why Shervin Pishevar chose to warn the public. Selecting a tweetstorm to do so was a novel approach.\nA drop of that magnitude could deliver devastating consequences to the global economy.\nhttps://calacanis.com/2011/12/07/this-week-in-startups-shervin-pishevar-of-menlo-ventures/\nPosted on February 6, 2019 February 7, 2019 Categories Business, CEO, Entrepreneur, TechnologyTags Bitcoin, finance, Reputable Transports, Shervin Pishevar, Stock Market, technology, UberLeave a comment on Shervin Pishevar and the Prophetic Tweet Storm about the Dow Jones\nTMS Health Solutions Offers Innovative Treatment For Depression\nDepression is a mental health condition which will affect approximately 14% of Americans at some point in their lives. Many forms of depression are traditionally treated with anti-depressant medications. There are, however, a number of patients who suffer from types of depression that are extremely resistant to treatment with medication. For them, finding help can be difficult. Fortunately, the professionals at TMS Health Solutions offer the latest in proven treatment methods to aid in their recovery from this condition.\nMany people believe that depression is just a frame of mind or a bad mood, but this isn\u2019t the case at all. Depression is actually a mental health issue that, if left untreated, can become very serious and result in side effects that can be debilitating. Some people are embarrassed to talk about or seek help for depression due to the stigma attached to mental health issues. This leads to worsening of the condition with often crippling results.\nTMS Health Solutions offers a wide range of treatment options, from traditional medication schedules where they are effective to the most up-to-the-minute treatment options to help their patients recover from even the most intense forms of depression. The expert staff go above and beyond routine treatment. They take the time to become acquainted with the entire person, not just as a patient but as an individual. Each client is treated on a one-on-one basis and a personalized plan of action is created to address their specific needs.\nOne of the most common and highly effective treatments for many forms of depression is anti-depressant medication. For some mental health professionals, however, this has become a \u201cone size fits all\u201d answer to the problem. Unfortunately, medications are not always successful. There are severe forms of depression that simply don\u2019t respond to medications. The care team at TMS Health Solutions understands this. They are trained in the use of alternative treatment methods such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or TMS therapy, a non-invasive form of depression therapy. There are minimal side effects from this treatment. Side effects are quite common with the use of medication. They can often be very unpleasant and can cause people to avoid taking them, which hampers their recovery.\nThe TMS procedure applies electromagnetic pulses to the area of the brain responsible for regulating mood. These pulses work by stimulating the nerves that can basically override the signals that cause the depressive feelings. It is done as an outpatient procedure right in the doctor\u2019s office and since it is completely non-invasive, it does not affect the patient\u2019s regular activities at all. Treatments last for 4-6 weeks and are about 30-60 minutes long. Patients have reported significant improvements with this type of treatment. TMS Health Solutions is proud to be at the forefront of this innovative therapy, which has proven to be effective in treating even the most resistant forms of depression.\nCheck: https://tmshealthsolutions.com/service/\nPosted on February 6, 2019 February 11, 2019 Categories Brain DiseaseLeave a comment on TMS Health Solutions Offers Innovative Treatment For Depression\nRyan Seacrest: the multitalented radio and television personality\nIts hard talk about broadcast and cable television in America without mentioning Ryan Seacrest.

The 11th US Secretary of Education has been making headlines ever since she took office. It seems like there is nothing that she can\u2019t do to get out of the spotlight. In a recent interview with \u201c60 Minutes,\u201d the secretary talked to Lesley Stahl about the success of these new education programs and the safety of students on public campuses.\nDeVos looks comfortable as she talks to Stahl calmly about her opponents who say that educational choice can\u2019t work because it won\u2019t receive public funding. DeVos says that just means they don\u2019t understand that public funding isn\u2019t used for educational choice options. DeVos talked to Stahl at length about the success of her programs and whether she thought that any of them had done better than standardized testing and Common Core method.\nDeVos believes that Florida has shown the most success. Students have the most educational choice options including virtual schools, magnet programs, charter schools, private school, and homeschooling options. With all of these options, students are able to find a program that speaks to them. This means that they are able to choose a performing arts school if it better suits their interests than where they are zoned.\nThis has been a huge step forward for students, who used to depend on their zip codes to place them at a school. If you lived in an area with poor schools, it would be difficult to get out of sending your child to that school. Now with educational choice, you are able to send your student to whatever school you wish, as long as it\u2019s approved by your state.\nIn most states, educational choice is still on the back burner. Despite how much she has campaigned, DeVos hasn\u2019t been successful in getting new educational choice options for every state. Is it an issue with funding? DeVos says that it isn\u2019t, but rather, it\u2019s opponents who don\u2019t understand that private schools provide great options to students who don\u2019t want to be taught to a standardized test or Common Core.\nYou can choose your curriculum basically with these options, which is a welcome relief to parents who have been trying to get their kids to like school, even though they don\u2019t understand the new curriculum based off of Common Core method. Now students are able to pick where they go in certain states. DeVos hopes to have more on the roster by the end of her term.\nDeVos has been working hard as well with school safety officials, trying to help schools across the country go to school safely. Since 2018, DeVos has been working with safety officials to rate school\u2019s safety and add new policies to make campuses gun-free. It\u2019s been difficult to keep up with both campaigns at once, but DeVos continues to push forward. She says that it\u2019s important to put students first.\nPosted on January 26, 2019 Categories PoliticsLeave a comment on Betsy DeVos: the new US Education Secretary\nLife is not as easy as it was many years ago. People are currently struggling with all kinds of hardships in life. This is why the number of mental patients keeps going up. Mental health is not an easy subject to discuss in most communities. Most people suffer in silence because they do not want members of their family or even friends to notice that they are living with mental diseases. There are some patients who end up killing themselves because they failed to seek medical help when it was early enough. Employers suffer when their company employees are having any mental breakdowns at work. Most of them are now investing in healthcare services so that they never have to lose their workers. Talkspace is a respected company that is online based. The company offers its therapy sessions online, and so far, it has saved so many lives. Visit talkspace on Instagram for updates.\nTalkspace is impacting the American community. The kinds of approaches used by the company are unique, and this is what helps the patients to open up and get the assistance they need when battling with mental diseases. Not long ago, the American company announced that they were going a special partnership with a well-known professional, Michael Phelps so that they can deal with mental health in the workplace in the best way. Michael Phelps, a professional who has dealt with mental illnesses in the past, wants to use his experience to change the lives of other people with a similar experience. The star, who is popular because of how much he has achieved, sought the help of a professional doctor when he got depression although he was in a very successful career. Talkspace has announced that it is happy about the new partnership, and it looks forward to a positive report from the patients.\nCheck out: https://www.opencounseling.com/blog/betterhelp-vs-talkspace-a-former-therapists-in-depth-review-with-ratings-part-1-33\nPosted on January 24, 2019 January 25, 2019 Categories Company, Talkspace, TherapistLeave a comment on Talkspace Announces Partnership with Michael Phelps",

        "raw_content": "Scales, who needs them? Why and What For, Anyway?!\nSomewhere along the way in our development as guitar players, we start to get the idea that it would be a good idea if we learned some of those things called scales. If we are new to the guitar, and new to music, we are probably not even quite sure exactly what a scale actually is, which certainly adds to the aura of mystery that begins to surround the subject.\nThe next thing that happens, as we continue along in our development, is that we begin to get the unsettling impression that there seems to be an awful lot of those things called scales. In fact, there seems to be hundreds of them. We may even run across an encyclopedia of scales, and realize that there could be thousands of these little buggers out there! The very prospect of learning all those scales begins to make us weak in the knuckles!\nIt is at about this point that we start to get a little suspicious, a little curious about this whole business of scales and what they really have to do with us, and what we want to do on the guitar. \"How many of these things do I have to learn, anyway\"?, we ask, \"and what do I do with them once I learn them\"?\nThen we go and try to find the answer to our questions. We read magazines and hear a lot of advanced and professional guitarists talk on the subject, and it leaves us even more confused. One guy says we must know a hundred ways to play a major scale, and then we should learn a hundred minor scales, and then start on the more exotic type of scales. Another guy, who is also an advanced player, perhaps professional and perhaps rich and famous, says he only uses a few scales. So after all our agonized searching, we are even more confused than when we started!\nWell, I am going to try and provide some clarity on the subject. I am going to lay out an overall view of the subject, and provide you with an understanding of what scales are, what they are used for, and how the way scales are used is DIFFERENT for different types of players. Once you understand these things, you will be in a much better position to achieve some clarity on the subject, and make your own decisions about how you are going to include the study of scales into your practice regimen.\nWhat Scales Are, Musically, and Why We Practice Them\nMusically speaking, a scale is simply a series of notes, following one after the other. The really important thing about any scale is the SPACE between the notes, and by space, I mean the space in terms of PITCH. It is the distance in pitch between two notes that contains the EMOTIONAL CONTENT of music. This is one of the most important concepts that any musician can know, and most do know it, if only on an intuitive level. For those wishing to develop an understanding of music theory, this concept should be pursued and understood. I cannot go into it in the depth it deserves in this essay, but I will lay out the essence of it, and you should pursue it with your teacher, and in books.\nIf I play a note on the guitar, and then play the same note again, there is no distance in pitch between the two notes. If I play a note, and then play the note on the very next fret, the distance in PITCH, (which is the \"highness\" or \"lowness\" of a sound), between those two notes is called a half step. If I play a note, and then play the note two frets away (a note on the first fret, then the third), that is called a whole step, and the effect is very different than a half step. If I play a note and then the note three frets away, that distance is called a minor third.\nAll of these different spacings in pitch between notes are called INTERVALS in music theory. In the interval of a minor third mentioned above, you can really hear what I mean by the \"emotional content\" of the interval. The minor third interval is contained in the minor chord, and this particular \"spacing\" between notes is what gives a minor chord it's dark, minor sound. When you play a blues scale, it is the sound made by the first two notes, and gives the blues scale it's bluesy feeling (or at least contributes to it, as do some other intervals).\nThat is as far as I want to go with Intervals for now. I just want you to know they exist, and that they carry the \"emotion\" of music. I want you to know that every scale not only contains notes, but that the SPACES, or Intervals between the notes are what is really important. Scales come in different \"types\", major, minor, diminished, etc.. Each type of scale has its own peculiar spacings between the notes, and these spacings give each type of scale its unique emotional feeling or \"color\". You will see later that players of different styles use different types of scales in their playing. A lifelong blues/rock player may never need to play a major scale.\nBecause each type of scale has the same intervals between notes, each type of scale has the same \"feeling\", even if it has a different letter name. In other words, if you play a C major scale, or a D major scale, or a G major scale, they will all have the same pattern of spaces, or intervals between each of the notes, as well as each containing the same number of notes, so, they will all sound \"the same\" in terms of the \"emotional content\" or feeling of the scale. In fact, you could say they all have the same \"color\". Minor scales have a different spacing between the notes than major scales, and it gives them a \"dark\" color.\nUsing this analogy, you could think of a scale as a palette of colors. If a composer wants to write a sad piece, he will pull out a minor scale, and use those notes to write it. In this sense, we could say scales are the building blocks of music.\nQuick Jump Page 1 - What gives?Page 2 - What Scales Are, Technically\nWhat Scales Are, Technically >>",

        "raw_content": "IHS: The Holy Name of Jesus: St Bernardino of Siena\nEl Greco 1541 -1614\nAnsono di Pietro di Mencio known as Pietro di Sano 1406 - 1481\nSt Bernardino Preaching in the Campo in Siena\nBernardino di Betto (Benedetto), called II Pinturicchio (ca. 1454 - 1513)\nDeath of St Bernardino of Siena in L`Aquila\nCappella Bufalini\nSanta Maria in Aracoeli, Rome\nThe School of Luca Signorelli\nSt Bernardino of Siena\nLindenau-Museum, Altenburg (Th\u00fcringen)\nFrom A Book Of Hours made and used in Paris\nMiniature from illuminated manuscript\nFolio 190, Chamb\u00e9ry - BM - ms. 0001\nIn his day Saint Bernardino of Siena (8 September 1380 \u2013 20 May 1444) was a controversial figure. His enemies even got him put on trial for heresy\nFor some reason or other his \"star\" declined sharply after the Second Vatican Council\nBut in his day he was probably the greatest preacher of the fifteenth century even receiving the title of \"the Apostle of Italy\". No mean orator himself, Pope Pius II had listened to Saint Bernardino and said that the saint was listened to as another Paul\nHe literally travelled the length and breadth of Italy preaching\nHe was venerated especially in Tuscany. St. Antoninus, Antoninus Pierozzi (1389\u20141459; Archbishop of Florence from 1446\u201459), paid him the highest tributes.\nAfter his death Siena where he had often preached and held in the highest veneration sought to recover his body for its city. It had to do with other things such as erecting a beautiful Oratory in his name (still there) and commissioning Pietro di Sano`s paintings of the Life of the Saint of which the above is only one panel.\nDuring the latter half of the 1440s and particularly around 1450, the year in which Saint Bernardino was canonised, Sano di Pietro was commissioned to paint numerous images of the patron saint of Siena\nThe sunken cheeks of Saint Bernardino and the physiognomic resemblance among the various representations of the saint, are explained by the fact that Sano di Pietro apparently used a wax mask, taken of the saint's head at the moment of his death, to ensure an accurate likeness\nSaint Bernardino was canonised in 1450, only six years after his death, by Pope Nicholas V.\nAs a child he had been taught to venerate The Holy Name of Jesus in a special manner. On reading the epistles of Saint Paul, he had found the Divine Name on almost every line. The Name of Jesus was the usual theme of his addresses.\nHe used to hold a board in front of him while preaching, with the sacred monogram painted on it in the midst of rays and afterwards expose it for veneration. The monogram was JHS (\"Jesus Hominum Salvator\" \"Jesus Saviour of Men\")\nThe emblem or monogram of The Holy Name is usually in most portraits of him. As are the three bishops` mitres in recognition of the fact that he turned down three offers from various Popes of various powerful bishoprics in Italy\nHis teaching was vindicated by the feast of the Triumph of the Holy Name, conceded to the Friars Minor in 1530 and extended to the Universal Church in 1722.\nAnother great theme of his preaching and work was the preaching of peace and the establishment of peace at a time and in areas where there was constant warfare and feuding.\nThe Vatican website carries an extract of one of his sermons on the Holy Name of Jesus. Here it is.\n\"The name of Jesus is the glory of preachers\n\"The name of Jesus is the glory of preachers, because the shining splendour of that name causes his word to be proclaimed and heard. And how do you think such an immense, sudden and dazzling light of faith came into the world, if not because Jesus was preached?\nWas it not through the brilliance and sweet savour of this name that God called us into his marvellous light?\nWhen we have been enlightened, and in that same light behold the light of heaven, rightly may the apostle Paul say to us: Once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light.\nSo this name must be proclaimed, that it may shine out and never be suppressed. But it must not be preached by someone with sullied mind or unclean lips, but stored up and poured out from a chosen vessel. That is why our Lord said of Saint Paul: He is a chosen instrument of mine, the vessel of my choice, to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel.\nIn this chosen vessel there was to be a drink more pleasing than earth ever knew, offered to all mankind for a price they could pay, so that they would be drawn to taste of it. Poured into other chosen vessels, it would grow and radiate splendour. For our Lord said: He is to Carry my name.\nWhen a fire is lit to clear a field, it burns off all the dry and useless weeds and thorns. When the sun rises and darkness is dispelled, robbers, night-prowlers and burglars hide away.\nBy word of mouth, by letters, by miracles and by the example of his own life, Saint Paul bore the name of Jesus wherever he went. He praised the name of Jesus at all times, but never more than when bearing witness to his faith.\nMoreover, the Apostle did indeed carry this name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel as a light to enlighten all nations. And this was his cry wherever he journeyed: The night is passing away, the day is at hand. Let us then cast off the works of darkness and put on the armour of light; let us conduct ourselves honourably as in the day. Paul himself showed forth the burning and shining light set upon a candlestick, everywhere proclaiming Jesus, and him crucified.\nAnd so the Church, the bride of Christ strengthened by his testimony, rejoices with the psalmist, singing: 0 God, from my youth you have taught me, and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds. The psalmist exhorts her to do this, as he says: Sing to the Lord, and bless his name, proclaim his salvation day after day. And this salvation is Jesus, her saviour.\"\nFrom a sermon by Saint Bernardine of Siena, priest (Sermo 49, De glorioso Nomine Iesu Christi, cap 2: Opera omnia, 4. 505-506)\nIt was the Observant Franciscans like St. Bernardine of Siena, St. John of Capestrano, Saint Simon of Lipnica(1435/1440 c. - 1482) who recommenced this devotion to the Holy Name and spread the devotion not ony in Italy but to Poland and far and wide.\nPope John Paul II had a particuar devotion to the Holy Name of Jesus\nIn the liturgical revisions of Vatican II, the Feast of the Holy Name was removed, though a votive Mass to the Holy Name of Jesus had been retained for devotional use. With the release of the revised Roman Missal in March 2002, he restored the Feast of the Holy Name as an optional memorial in the Ordinary Form on January 3.\nSt. John of Capestrano founded the first convent of the Observance in Krakow on 8th September 1453. The Friars Minor of the convent were called the \u201cBerdardini\u201d by the people. The Franciscans have had a continued presence in Krakow and surrounding areas since then. As a young man Pope John Paul II often prayed at the Franciscan churches there.\nSuch devotion is also seen in the Catechism issued during his pontificate as well as the many occasions he invoked the Holy Name in his addresses and homilies\nThe Catechism provides:\n\"Prayer to Jesus\n2665 The prayer of the Church, nourished by the Word of God and the celebration of the liturgy, teaches us to pray to the Lord Jesus. Even though her prayer is addressed above all to the Father, it includes in all the liturgical traditions forms of prayer addressed to Christ. Certain psalms, given their use in the Prayer of the Church, and the New Testament place on our lips and engrave in our hearts prayer to Christ in the form of invocations: Son of God, Word of God, Lord, Saviour, Lamb of God, King, Beloved Son, Son of the Virgin, Good Shepherd, our Life, our Light, our Hope, our Resurrection, Friend of mankind. . . .\n2666 But the one name that contains everything is the one that the Son of God received in his incarnation: JESUS. The divine name may not be spoken by human lips, but by assuming our humanity The Word of God hands it over to us and we can invoke it: \"Jesus,\" \"YHWH saves.\" The name \"Jesus\" contains all: God and man and the whole economy of creation and salvation. To pray \"Jesus\" is to invoke him and to call him within us. His name is the only one that contains the presence it signifies. Jesus is the Risen One, and whoever invokes the name of Jesus is welcoming the Son of God who loved him and who gave himself up for him.\n2667 This simple invocation of faith developed in the tradition of prayer under many forms in East and West. The most usual formulation, transmitted by the spiritual writers of the Sinai, Syria, and Mt. Athos, is the invocation, \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us sinners.\" It combines the Christological hymn of Philippians 2:6-11 with the cry of the publican and the blind men begging for light. By it the heart is opened to human wretchedness and the Saviour's mercy.\n2668 The invocation of the holy name of Jesus is the simplest way of praying always. When the holy name is repeated often by a humbly attentive heart, the prayer is not lost by heaping up empty phrases, but holds fast to the word and \"brings forth fruit with patience.\" This prayer is possible \"at all times\" because it is not one occupation among others but the only occupation: that of loving God, which animates and transfigures every action in Christ Jesus.\n2669 The prayer of the Church venerates and honours the Heart of Jesus just as it invokes his most holy name. It adores the incarnate Word and his Heart which, out of love for men, he allowed to be pierced by our sins. Christian prayer loves to follow the way of the cross in the Savior's steps. The stations from the Praetorium to Golgotha and the tomb trace the way of Jesus, who by his holy Cross has redeemed the world.\"\nThe saint`s memory is still celebrated in many parts of Italy. Indeed last year, the Saint went on his travels again. He is patron of the town of Filettino in Lazio, and his body was brought to the town on 25th July, As can be seen from the video below he can still bring out the crowds\nSaint Bernard of Clairvaux: The Holy Name of Jesus\nPhilippe Quantin (d. 1636)\nSaint Bernard of Clairvaux writing\n181,1 cm x 120.4cm\nSaint Bernard of Clairvaux, O.Cist (1090 \u2013 August 20, 1153) had a particular devotion to the Holy Name of Jesus.\nIn one of his Sermons he said:\n\"What can so enrich the soul that reflects upon it (the holy name of Jesus)? What can . . . strengthen the virtues, beget good and honorable dispositions, foster holy affections? Dry is every kind of spiritual food which this oil does not moisten.\nTasteless, whatever this salt does not season.\nIf thou writest, thy composition has no charms for me, unless I read there the name of Jesus. If thou dost debate or converse, I find no pleasure in thy words, unless I hear there the name of Jesus.\nJesus is honey on the lips, melody in the ear, joy in the heart.\nYet not alone is that name light and food. It is also a remedy. Is any one amongst you sad? Let the name of Jesus enter his heart; let it leap thence to his mouth; and lo! the light shining from that name shall scatter every cloud and restore peace.\nHas some one perpetrated a crime, and then misled, moved despairingly towards the snare of death? Let him but invoke this life-giving name, and straightway he shall find courage once more. . .\nWhoever, all a-tremble in the presence of danger, has not immediately felt his spirits revive and his fears depart as soon as he called upon this name of power? There is nothing so powerful as the name of Jesus to check anger, reduce the swelling of pride, heal the smarting wound of envy. . .\"\nIn Cantica, Serm. XV, 6; Migne, P. L., CLXXXIII, 846-d, 847-a, b\nJesu Dulcis Memoria ( Jesus, Sweet Memory) is a hymn attributed to the authorship of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. The name can refer either to the entire poem, which, depending on the manuscript, ranges from forty-two to fifty-three stanzas, or only the first part.\nThree sections of it are used as hymns in the Liturgy of the Hours of the Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus: \"Iesu dulcis memoria\" (Vespers), \"Iesu rex admirabilis\" (Office of Readings), \"Iesu decus angelicum\" (Lauds).\nThe first few verses are as follows (translation by Fr. Edward Caswall (1814-1878))\nIESU, dulcis memoria,\ndans vera cordis gaudia,\nsed super mel et omnia,\neius dulcis praesentia.\nJESU, the very thought of Thee,\nwith sweetness fills my breast,\nbut sweeter far Thy face to see,\nNil canitur suavius,\nnil auditur iucundius,\nquam Iesus Dei Filius.\no Savior of mankind!.\nIesu, spes paenitentibus,\nquam pius es petentibus!\nquam bonus te quaerentibus!\nsed quid invenientibus?\nO hope of every contrite heart\nto those who fall, how kind Thou art!\nhow good to those who seek!\nNec lingua valet dicere,\nnec littera exprimere:\nexpertus potest credere,\nquid sit Iesum diligere.\nBut what to those who find? Ah this\nnor tongue nor pen can show:\nthe love of Jesus, what it is\nnone but His loved ones know.\nSis, Iesu, nostrum gaudium,\nqui es futurus praemium:\nsit nostra in te gloria,\nper cuncta semper saecula.\nJesu, our only joy be Thou,\nAs Thou our prize wilt be:\nJesu, be Thou our glory now,\nChi-Rho: THe Holy Name of Jesus\nThe city of Albenga is on the Italian Ligurian coast near Savona.\nIt is an ancient city dating back to Roman times.\nWithin its walls still stands an ancient Baptistry dating back to the 5th century. It is the oldest paleo-Christian Baptistry still standing in the province of Liguria and one of the oldest in Italy.\nAlong with Ravenna it is one of the few in Byzantine style still standing in Northern Italy Its state of preservation is remarkable\nOne of the most significant features is a 6th century mosaic within one of the niches of the Baptistry. See below\nIt represents Christ and the Trinity with the Twelve Apostles. Christ is the \"Christogram\" (Chi Rho) representing the name of Christ. There is also a small red cross or crucifix. The Cross is circled by three concentric circles representing the Trinity. The Trinity and Christ are circled by the 12 doves or Apostles which recalls the invitation by Christ to the Apostles to go forth and baptise in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit\nThe use of a wreath around the Chi Rho symbolises the victory of the Resurrection over death. It is an early visual representations of the connection between the Crucifixion of Jesus and his triumphal resurrection\nOften the Chi Rho symbol would be flanked by the Greek letters \"Alpha\" and \"Omega\". The term Alpha and Omega comes from the phrase \"I am the alpha and the omega [,the first and the last] \" an appellation of Jesus in the Book of Revelation (verses 1:8, 21:6, and 22:13).\nIn this gravestone from the 5th Century discovered in a sandpit in France, one can see the full \"Chi Rho\" insignia:\nGrave slab: rectangular, re-used brick-tile architectural fragment; inscribed with chi-rho and alpha and omega in wreath with dove left, and VRSICINVS IACET CVM PACE (Urscinus Rests in Peace)\nExcavated St Acheul (sandpit)\n5th century (Meroviginian)\nA monogram of the name of Jesus Christ was not only an abbreviation but also a symbol. It was also a reminder of important truths. The name of Jesus had to be revered. For Christians it was a confession of faith\nBut after 313 its meaning changed. It also became an Imperial symbol. It was the symbol adopted by the Roman emperor Constantine, after his conversion to Christianity in the year 313\nThe location of the symbol was important. In Albenga it was placed on the ceiling of the niche. One had to look up to see it then after one saw it, one naturally bowed one`s head.\nOn a gravestone the symbol was more than apposite: the Church is of the living and the dead. A viewer might have had to incline one`s head to view it.\nThe sign and depiction of Christ was after the adoption of Christianity by Constantine also seen on mosaic floors. Perhaps there was an idea that to look at it one had to incline one`s head. However it may also be a sign that the increase in such depictions led to a devaluation in the original message of the depiction and the lack of veneration towards the Holy Name. It simply became another house decoration and a symbol of Imperial loyalty\nApart from the depiction of Christ with the Chi-Rho in The Hinton St Mary Mosaic examples of such floor mosaics are almost non-existent.\nIn 427 the emperor specifically banned the making of images of Christ on mosaic floors, and he ordered all existing ones to be removed.\nThe symbol CHI RHO with The Holy Name of Jesus echoed the words of St Paul to the Philippians:\nso that at the name of Jesus\nand every tongue should confess\nPhilippians 2.5-11 (emphasis added)\nSt Joan La Pucelle\nDominique-Louis Papety (1815-1849),\nJeanne d'Arc devant le roi Charles VII \u00e0 Chinon, r\u00e9pond aux pr\u00e9lats qui l'interrogent, f\u00e9vrier 1429\nJoan of Arc before King Charles VII at Chinon replies to the clerics who question her in February 1429 (1837)\nJeanne d'Arc au sacre du roi Charles VII dans la cath\u00e9drale de Reims\nJoan of Arc at the coronation of King Charles VII in Rheims Cathedral Oil on canvas\nPaul Delaroche 1797 - 1856\nJeanne d'Arc malade est interrog\u00e9e dans sa prison par le cardinal de Winchester\nAn ill Joan of Arc is questioned in prison by the Cardinal of Winchester (1824)\nThe Arrival of Joan of Arc at Chinon\nTapestry d'Azeghio (manufactured in Germany)\nMus\u00e9e historique et arch\u00e9ologique de l'Orl\u00e9anais, Orl\u00e9ans\nGeorges-Henri Rouault (1871-1958)\nJeanne d'arc (Harmonie verte)\nInk, gouache, oil on paper\nPaul Leroy 1860 - 1942\nAppearance of Jeanne d`Arc holding the standard and protecting a group of dragoons (24th Regiment): in the rear, the Archangel Saint Michael 1914\nMus\u00e9e de l'Arm\u00e9e, Paris\nFranck Craig 1874 - 1918\n\"La Pucelle ! \"Jeanne d'Arc \u00e0 la t\u00eate de son arm\u00e9e 1914\nJacques Auguste Regnier 1787 - 1860\nJoan of Arc vowing to restore France\nChateau at Fontainebleau\nJules Bastien-Lepage (1848\u20131884)\n254 cm x 279.4cm\nHenri Semiradsky 1843-1902\n136 by 90cm\nShakespeare`s characterisation of St Joan of Arc (or Joan la Pucelle) in Henry VI, Part 1 was not very complementary. It is not often performed and is not well regarded.\nShakespeare portrays Joan La Pucelle so that her only source of power come from witchcraft, and in the end she is forced to lie and beg for her own life\nIt was first performed in 1592 in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I a few years after the Armada had been defeated. The French are portrayed as corruptly Catholic and the English as attractively Protestant.\nIt depicts the beginning of the end of the English Empire in France. The last part of that Empire - the town of Calais - was only recaptured by the French in 1558 in the time of the Catholic Queen Mary well within the memory of many in the audience.\nIn 1756 Voltaire published his satirical epic poem La Pucelle d'Orl\u00e9ans which savaged Joan and by extension the Catholic Church. In his portrayal she was no virgin.\nCenturies later there were further characterisations of the Saint in English. The first was by Mark Twain in 1897 in Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc.\nHowever the major modern characterisation of St Joan in English was George Bernard Shaw`s play Saint Joan, first performed in 1923, after the First World War. He portrayed her as a real flesh and blood character with a stubborn streak which led to her downfall. His St Joan refused to accept the authority of the Cathoic Church, and he portrayed her as the first Protestant.\nIn his Preface he wrote:\n\"Though a professed and most pious Catholic, and the projector of a Crusade against the Hussites, she was in fact one of the first Protestant martyrs. She was also one of the first apostles of Nationalism, and the first French practitioner of Napoleonic realism in warfare as distinguished from the sporting ransom-gambling chivalry of her time. She was the pioneer of rational dressing for women, and, like Queen Christina of Sweden two centuries later, to say nothing of Catalina de Erauso and innumerable obscure heroines who have disguised themselves as men to serve as soldiers and sailors, she refused to accept the specific woman's lot, and dressed and fought and lived as men did.\"\nUnlike Shakespeare`s version, in Shaw`s play, there are no villains in the piece\nThe Preface is well worth reading in full. In many ways it is quite a remarkable defence of Catholicism for its time and Shaw`s rather idiosyncratic views\nShaw`s play came as a result of the resurgence of interest in St Joan. She was designated Venerable in 1904; declared Blessed in 1908 by Saint Pope Pius X; and finally canonised in 1920 by Pope Benedict XV\nThe resurgence in interest came from France especially after the defeat of Napoleon and as a result of the campaign by Bishop Dupanloup in the 19th Century. In times of national struggle such as after the Franco Prussian War and the First World War, the Catholic St Joan trounced the Republican Marianne as the French populace`s pin up and source of inspiration.\nIn her native land Jeanne d'Arc (ca. 1412 \u2013 30 May 1431) has been a political symbol as well as her powerful and noble martial might and struggle.\nThere have been countless depictions, interpretations and re-interpretations of her in art, theatre, film, television, music and even video games. She is a fascinating individual who has stirred the imagination of countless millions.\nIn art, the banner is the most frequently used attribute for Joan of Arc. It is said to have depicted God holding the world, pictured as an orb, flanked by the kneeling figures of Saints Michael and Gabriel, each presenting a lily.\nJoan of Arc carried the banner in every battle she fought, and would later state \u201cI loved my banner forty times more then my sword\u201d.\nIn May 1428, she heard the voices of Saints Catherine, Michael and Margaret instructing her to drive the English out of France and bring the Dauphin, later Charles VII, to Rheims for his coronation. How the \"voices\" are depicted in visual form has tested the ingenuity of many artists\nOn 26th January 2011, Pope Benedict XVI stepped into the arena and spoke about her. It was part of his Wednesday catecheses on important \"powerful\" women Catholics in the Middle Ages.\nUnlike the other women blesseds and saints discussed by Pope Benedict XVI there are no writings of St Joan to discuss.\nHowever there are statements of what she said at her trial. These have been cited and quoted with approval in the Catechism.\nPara 223 The Implications of Faith in One God\n\"223 It means coming to know God's greatness and majesty: \"Behold, God is great, and we know him not.\"Therefore, we must \"serve God first\".(St. Joan of Arc)\"\nPara 435 The Name of Jesus:\n\"435 The name of Jesus is at the heart of Christian prayer. All liturgical prayers conclude with the words \"through our Lord Jesus Christ\". The Hail Mary reaches its high point in the words \"blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.\" The Eastern prayer of the heart, the Jesus Prayer, says: \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.\" Many Christians, such as St. Joan of Arc, have died with the one word \"Jesus\" on their lips.\"\nPara 795 Christ and the Church:\n\"795 Christ and his Church thus together make up the \"whole Christ\" (Christus totus). The Church is one with Christ. The saints are acutely aware of this unity: ...\nA reply of St. Joan of Arc to her judges sums up the faith of the holy doctors and the good sense of the believer: \"About Jesus Christ and the Church, I simply know they're just one thing, and we shouldn't complicate the matter.\"\"\nPara 2005 re Grace:\n\"2005 Since it belongs to the supernatural order, grace escapes our experience and cannot be known except by faith. We cannot therefore rely on our feelings or our works to conclude that we are justified and saved. However, according to the Lord's words \"Thus you will know them by their fruits\" - reflection on God's blessings in our life and in the lives of the saints offers us a guarantee that grace is at work in us and spurs us on to an ever greater faith and an attitude of trustful poverty.\nA pleasing illustration of this attitude is found in the reply of St. Joan of Arc to a question posed as a trap by her ecclesiastical judges:\n\"Asked if she knew that she was in God's grace, she replied: 'If I am not, may it please God to put me in it; if I am, may it please God to keep me there.\"\nIn his talk Pope Benedict uses these bases in the Cathechism and develops these ideas further in his characterisation of Saint Joan.\nFirst of all he sets the historical context in which St Joan lived:\n\"Today I would like to speak to you about Joan of Arc, a young saint from the end of the Middle Ages, who died at age 19, in 1431. This French saint, quoted many times in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, is particularly close to St. Catherine of Siena, patroness of Italy and Europe, of whom I spoke in a recent catechesis.\nIn fact they are two young women of the people, lay and consecrated in virginity, two committed mystics, not in a cloister, but in the midst of the most dramatic realities of the Church and of the world of their time.\nThey are, perhaps, the most characteristic examples from among those \"strong women\" who, at the end of the Middle Ages, fearlessly took the great light of the Gospel to the complex vicissitudes of history. ....\nIn her times, the Church lived the profound crisis of the great Western schism, which lasted almost 40 years. When Catherine of Siena died, in 1380, there was a pope and an anti-pope. When Joan was born, in 1412, there was a pope and two anti-popes. In addition to this laceration within the Church, there were continuous fratricidal wars between the Christian peoples of Europe, the most tragic of which was the interminable 100 Years War between France and England.\"\nBut then he goes on to describe her qualities which set her apart from her time, and made her a memorable figure in the History of the Church, what made her timeless. His characterisation is of a saint not a military or nationalistic figure:\n\"We could place her next to the holy women who stayed on Calvary, close to Jesus crucified, and Mary, his mother, while the apostles fled and Peter himself denied him three times\"\nExceptional praise from a Pope who is not given to overstatement.\nHow did this figure arise from obscurity ?\nHer parents, her early religious education, her early religious devotion and the grounding of her faith in Christ and his mother Mary:\n\"Joan was born in Domremy, a small village located on the border between France and Lorraine. Her parents were well-off farmers, known by everyone as very good Christians.\nFrom them she received a good religious education, with notable influence from the spirituality of the Name of Jesus, taught by St. Bernardine of Siena and spread in Europe by the Franciscans.\nTo the Name of Jesus is always joined the Name of Mary and thus, in the framework of popular religiosity, Joan's spirituality was profoundly Christocentric and Marian. From her childhood, she showed great charity and compassion toward the poorest, the sick and all who suffered in the tragic context of the war.\"\nHer devotion to the Holy Name of Jesus is emphasised by the Pope:\n\"On March 22, 1429, Joan dictated an important letter to the king of England and his men who were besieging the city of Orleans (Ibid., p. 221-222). Hers was a proposal of true peace in justice between the two Christian peoples, in light of the names of Jesus and Mary, but this proposal was rejected, and Joan had to commit herself in the fight for the liberation of the city, which took place on May 8. ...\n[S]he died looking at Jesus crucified and pronouncing many times and in a loud voice the Name of Jesus (PNul, I, p. 457; cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, 435). ...\nDear brothers and sisters, the Name of Jesus, invoked by our saint up to the last moments of her earthly life, was like the breathing of her soul, like the beating of her heart, the centre of her whole life.\nThe \"mystery of the charity of Joan of Arc,\" which so fascinated the poet Charles Peguy, is this total love of Jesus, and of her neighbour in Jesus and for Jesus.\nThis saint understood that love embraces the whole reality of God and of man, of heaven and of earth, of the Church and of the world. Jesus was always in the first place during her whole life, according to her beautiful affirmation: \"Serve God first\" (PCon, I, p. 288; cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, 223).\"\nOf the \"voices\" and her political mission, the Pope is quite clear that the vision of St Michael was true and real and that its reality can be judged by its good effects. It had a profound religious effect on Joan. Contrary to Voltaire, Joan was firmly a virgin and dedicated to purity There was no side to her. She was what she said. She did what she said. There was no \"gameplan\", ulterior motives to her acts or political manipulation or deceptions. Contra Shakespeare she was not in league with the Devil and her courage came from her faith. Contra Voltaire, she was chaste yet remained able to command the soldiery. There was no \"spin\" with St Joan.\n\"From her own words, we know that Joan's religious life matured experientially beginning at the age of 13 (PCon, I, p. 47-48). Through the \"voice\" of the Archangel St. Michael, Joan felt called by the Lord to intensify her Christian life and also to commit herself personally to the liberation of her people.\nHer immediate response, her \"yes,\" was the vow of virginity, with a new commitment to sacramental life and to prayer: daily attendance at Mass, frequent confession and Communion and long periods of silent prayer before the Crucified or before the image of the Virgin.\nThe compassion and commitment of the young French peasant girl in face of the suffering of her people became more intense because of her mystical relationship with God.\nOne of the most original aspects of the holiness of this young girl was precisely the connection between mystical experience and political mission.\nAfter the years of hidden life and interior maturation, the brief but intense two-year period of her public life followed: a year of action and a year of passion.\nAt the beginning of the year 1429, Joan began her work of liberation. The numerous testimonies show us this young woman who was only 17 years old as a very strong and determined person, capable of convincing unsure and discouraged men. Overcoming all obstacles, she met with the dauphin of France, the future King Charles VII, who in Poitiers subjected her to an examination by some theologians of the university. Their judgment was positive: They did not see anything evil in her, [finding] only a good Christian.\nOn March 22, 1429, Joan dictated an important letter to the king of England and his men who were besieging the city of Orleans (Ibid., p. 221-222). Hers was a proposal of true peace in justice between the two Christian peoples, in light of the names of Jesus and Mary, but this proposal was rejected, and Joan had to commit herself in the fight for the liberation of the city, which took place on May 8.\nThe other culminating moment of her political action was the coronation of King Charles VII in Rheims, on July 17, 1429. For a whole year, Joan lived with the soldiers, carrying out among them a real mission of evangelization. Numerous are the testimonies about her goodness, her courage and her extraordinary purity. She was called by everyone and she herself described herself as \"the maiden,\" namely, the virgin.\"\nBut unlike Shaw, Pope Benedict`s tale of St Joan has villains. His villains are the theologians who were advising at the first trial of St Joan. HIs criticism is sharp and it is severe. He has voiced this criticism before on a number of occasions. He re-affirms that God`s mysteries are revealed to those who perhaps have little education but \"the hearts of little children\" and who are not afflicted by any trace of pride.\nHe reminds us of the simplicity of Saint Th\u00e9r\u00e8se of the Child Jesus, made a Doctor of the Church by the Blessed Pope John Paul II and who had a great devotion to St Joan and wanted to live and die like her.\nHe perhaps could also have reminded us of St Bernadette and the visionaries at La Salette.\nAt the same time perhaps the Pope is also criticising those clerics who wish to seek political power or office and restating the incompatibility of holding clerical office in the Church at the same time as holding public office in the State.\n\"Joan's passion began on May 23, 1430, when she fell prisoner in the hands of her enemies. On Dec. 23 she was taken to the city of Rouen. Carried out there was the long and dramatic Trial of Conviction, which began in February of 1431 and ended on May 30 with the stake.\nIt was a grand and solemn trial, presided over by two ecclesiastical judges, Bishop Pierre Cauchon and the inquisitor Jean le Maistre, but in reality led entirely by a large group of theologians of the famous University of Paris, who took part in the trial as consultants.\nThey were French ecclesiastics who had political leanings opposed to Joan's, and who thus had a priori a negative judgment on her person and her mission.\nThis trial is a moving page of the history of sanctity and also an illuminating page on the mystery of the Church that, according to the words of the Second Vatican Council, is \"at the same time holy and always in need of being purified\" (\"Lumen Gentium,\" 8).\nIt was the dramatic meeting between this saint and her judges, who were ecclesiastics. Joan was accused and judged by them, to the point of being condemned as a heretic and sent to the terrible death of the stake.\nAs opposed to the holy theologians who had illuminated the University of Paris, such as St. Bonaventure, St. Thomas Aquinas and Blessed Duns Scotus, of whom I have spoken in other catecheses, these judges were theologians lacking in charity and humility to see in this young woman the action of God.\nJesus' words come to mind according to which the mysteries of God are revealed to those that have the heart of little ones, while they remain hidden from the learned and wise who are not humble (cf. Luke 10:21). Thus Joan's judges were radically incapable of understanding her, of seeing the beauty of her soul: They did not know they were condemning a saint.\nJoan's appeal to the pope's intervention on May 24 was rejected by the court. On the morning of May 30 she received holy Communion for the last time in prison, and immediately after she was taken to her ordeal in the square of the old market.\nShe asked one of the priests to put in front of the stake the cross of the procession.\nThus she died looking at Jesus crucified and pronouncing many times and in a loud voice the Name of Jesus (PNul, I, p. 457; cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, 435).\nAlmost 25 years later, the Trial of Nullity, opened under the authority of Pope Calixtus III, concluded with a solemn sentence that declared the condemnation null and void (July 7, 1456; PNul, II, p. 604-610). This long trial, which includes the statements of witnesses and judgments of many theologians, all favorable to Joan, highlights her innocence and her perfect fidelity to the Church.\nJoan of Arc was canonised in 1920 by Benedict XV\"\nIn his conclusion he fully expounds what is heroic and great about St Joan.\nUnike Shaw, for Benedict, this was not a young lady who would have gone on to great things at the London School of Economics, got a PPE and then become a leading member of the Fabian Society and gone into Parliament.\nShe did not go into public life for self interest or some political ideology. Contra Shaw she was a faithful daughter of the Church. Other members of the Church did not have the same fidelity. She went into public life because it was her religious mission. No wonder perhaps that Shakespeare, Voltaire and Shaw either vilified or underestimated her true character. In British politics and in modern European politics a figure like St Joan woud be regarded as dangerous demagogue or ideologue who would have to be isolated from exercising any type or form of political power. A modern St Joan would terrify the political establishment.\nConsider the contemporary reaction to Margaret Thatcher in the early years of her leadership and in the early years of her premiership. Perhaps such figures are only appreciated and only tolerated in times of national emergency and for the emergency only\n\"Dear brothers and sisters, the Name of Jesus, invoked by our saint up to the last moments of her earthly life, was like the breathing of her soul, like the beating of her heart, the center of her whole life.\nThe \"mystery of the charity of Joan of Arc,\" which so fascinated the poet Charles Peguy, is this total love of Jesus, and of her neighbor in Jesus and for Jesus. This saint understood that love embraces the whole reality of God and of man, of heaven and of earth, of the Church and of the world. Jesus was always in the first place during her whole life, according to her beautiful affirmation: \"Serve God first\" (PCon, I, p. 288; cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, 223).\nTo love him means to always obey his will.\nShe said with total confidence and abandonment: \"I entrust myself to my Creator God, I love him with my whole heart\" (Ibid., p. 337).\nWith the vow of virginity, Joan consecrated in an exclusive way her whole person to the one Love of Jesus: It is \"her promise made to our Lord to protect well her virginity of body and soul\" (Ibid., p. 149-150).\nVirginity of soul is the state of grace, the supreme value, for her more precious than life: It was a gift of God that she received and protected with humility and trust.\nOne of the best known texts of the first trial has to do with this:\n\"Asked if she knew that she was in God's grace, she replied: 'If I am not, may it please God to put me in it; if I am, may it please God to keep me there'\" (Ibid., p. 62; cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2005).\nOur saint lived prayer as a form of continuous dialogue with the Lord, who also enlightened her answers to the judges, giving her peace and security.\nShe prayed with faith:\n\"Sweetest God, in honor of your holy Passion, I ask you, if you love me, to reveal to me how I must answer these men of the Church\" (Ibid., p. 252).\nJoan saw Jesus as the \"King of Heaven and Earth.\" Thus, on her standard, Joan had the image painted of \"Our Lord who sustains the world\" (Ibid., p. 172), icon of her political mission.\nThe liberation of her people was a work of human justice, which Joan carried out in charity, out of love for Jesus. Hers is a beautiful example of holiness for the laity who work in political life, above all in the most difficult situations.\nFaith is the light that guides every choice, as another great saint would testify a century later, the Englishman Thomas More. In Jesus, Joan also contemplated the reality of the Church, the \"triumphant Church\" of Heaven, and the \"militant Church\" of earth.\nAccording to her words, Our Lord and the Church are one \"whole\" (Ibid., p. 166). This affirmation quoted in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (No. 795), has a truly heroic character in the context of the Trial of Conviction, in face of the judges, men of the Church, who persecuted her and condemned her.\nIn the love of Jesus, Joan found the strength to love the Church to the end, including at the moment of her conviction.\nI am pleased to recall how St. Joan of Arc had a profound influence on a young saint of the modern age: Th\u00e9r\u00e8se of the Child Jesus. In a completely different life, spent in the cloister, the Carmelite of Lisieux felt very close to Joan, living in the heart of the Church and taking part in the sufferings of Jesus for the salvation of the world.\nThe Church has joined them as patronesses of France, after the Virgin Mary. St. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se expressed her desire to die like Joan, pronouncing the Name of Jesus (Manuscript B, 3r); she was animated by the same love for Jesus and her neighbour, lived in consecrated virginity.\nDear brothers and sisters, with her luminous testimony, St. Joan of Arc invites us to a lofty level of Christian life: to make prayer the guiding thread of our days; to have full confidence in fulfilling the will of God, whatever it is; to live in charity without favoritisms, without limits and having, as she had, in the love of Jesus, a profound love for the Church\"\nSt Thomas Aquinas and Faith\nAry Scheffer 1795 - 1858\nSaint Thomas d'Aquin pr\u00eachant la confiance en Dieu pendant la temp\u00eate\nSaint Thomas Aquinas preaching trust in God during a tempest\nAry Scheffer is known for many paintings including the celebrated Vision of St Augustine and his mother St Monica at Ostia\nSee The National Gallery, London and A Shared Vision Before Death in Ostia\nIn this work we see a different side of St Thomas Aquinas from that usually depicted. The books, pen and paper have been put away. There is no stasis or ecstasy or apotheosis. The scene is dynamic.\nSt Thomas is fulfilling his vocation as one of the Order of Preachers: preaching and encouraging the people to faith\nOne is reminded of the occasion narrated in the Gospels [Mark 4:35-41, Luke 8:22-25 and Matthew 8:23-27] when Jesus and his disciples were crossing the Sea of Gallilee in a boat when a furious storm came up, with the waves breaking over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped.\nJesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion, but the disciples woke him and said to him, \"Teacher, don't you care if we drown?\"\nThe Gospel of Mark then states that:\nHe got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, \"Quiet! Be still!\" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, \"Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?\" They were terrified and asked each other, \"Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!\"\nThe two questions: \"Why are you so afraid?\" and \"Do you still have no faith?\" seem relevant to this painting\nPope Benedict XVI in his discussion of St Thomas referred to his great intellectual abilities and works but he also went on to say:\n\"In addition to study and teaching, Thomas also dedicated himself to preaching to the people. And the people too came willingly to hear him. I would say that it is truly a great grace when theologians are able to speak to the faithful with simplicity and fervour.\nThe ministry of preaching, moreover, helps theology scholars themselves to have a healthy pastoral realism and enriches their research with lively incentives ...\nIn December 1273, he summoned his friend and secretary Reginald to inform him of his decision to discontinue all work because he had realised, during the celebration of Mass subsequent to a supernatural revelation, that everything he had written until then \"was worthless\".\nThis is a mysterious episode that helps us to understand not only Thomas' personal humility, but also the fact that, however lofty and pure it may be, all we manage to think and say about the faith is infinitely exceeded by God's greatness and beauty which will be fully revealed to us in Heaven\"\nLudwig Gl\u00f6tzle 1847 - 1929\nSt Paul ordains Timothy as Bishop of Ephesus 1891\nDom Sankt Rupert und Virgil, Salzburg\n26 January commemorates the two disciples of Paul, Titus and Timothy, on the day after the feast of the Conversion of St. Paul.\nAccording to tradition, Paul ordained Titus bishop of Gortyn in Crete\nLuis Gonz\u00e1lez Vel\u00e1zquez 1715-1763\nAparici\u00f3n de San Francisco de Sales a San Claudio Croeix (o a San Juan Bautista Gord)\nAppearance of St Francis de Sales to St Claud Croeix (or to St John the Baptist Gord)\nPen and wash on paper\nLuis was not the Vel\u00e1zquez. He was one of the family of artists called Vel\u00e1zquez. He was the son of Pablo Gonz\u00e1lez Vel\u00e1zquez (1664-1727), an Andalusian sculptor who worked in the Baroque style and in 1702 settled in Madrid. His brother was Alejandro Gonz\u00e1lez Vel\u00e1zquez with whom he collaborated\nSt Francis de Sales was Bishop of Geneva (1602) and spiritual director and, with St Jane Frances de Chantal, the founder of Salesian spirituality. He took as his exemplar, St Charles Borromeo\nHe was beatified in 1661 by Pope Alexander VII, who then canonised him three years later.\nHe was declared a Doctor of the Church by Blessed Pius IX in 1877\nIn 1923, Pope Pius XI proclaimed him a patron of writers and journalists, because of the books he wrote, the most famous of which was Introduction \u00e0 la vie d\u00e9vote (\"Introduction to the Devout Life\").\nHe also left the mystical Trait\u00e9 de l' Amour de Dieu (\"Treatise on the Love of God\") and many highly valued letters of spiritual direction\nBut it is not only in the Catholic Church that he is venerated. He is recognised as an exemplary in the Church of England, where his memoria is also observed on January 24, and in the Church in Wales\nHe has always been highly regarded by the Popes who occupied the Papacy\nThe Apostolic Letter of Blessed Pius IX declaring him a Doctor of the Church is worth reading. See Dives In Misericordia Deus (pdf)(Proclaiming St. Francis de Sales a \"Doctor of the Church) November 16, 1877 [Apostolic letter]\nBenedict XV wanted to write an Encyclical on him but died before he could do it.\nThere was however an Encyclial by Pius XI extolling the saint and doctor: See Pius XI, Rerum Omnium Perturbationem (26/01/1923)\nIn his short Pontificate Pope John Paul I was apt to quote and cite him in his public allocutions.\nHere is some of the wisdom of St Francis of Sales:\n\"There is no vocation that does not have its troubles, its vexations, its disgust. Apart from those who are fully resigned to God's will. each of us would like to change his own condition with that of others. Those who are bishops wish they were not; those who are married wish they were not, and those who are not married wish that they were. Where does this general restlessness of spirits come from, if not from a certain allergy that we have towards constraint and from a spirit that is not good, which make us suppose that others are better off than we are?\" (St Francis of Sales, Oeuvres, edit. Annecy, t. XII, 348-9).\n\"God will work with you, in you and for you, and your work will be followed by consolation\" (The Introduction to the Devout Life, III, 10).\n\"Charity is a love of friendship, a friendship of preference, a preferential love, but an incomparable preference, sovereign and supernatural, that is as a sun in the soul to enlighten it with its rays, in all the spiritual faculties to perfect them, in all one's powers to moderate them, but in the will, as on its seat, to dwell there and to make it cherish and love its God above all things\" (cf. Treatise of the Love of God, Book II, chap. 22, p. 125, translated by H.B. Mackey, Newman Book Shop, Westminster, Md., 1945).\n\"Perfect abandonment into the hands of the heavenly Father and a perfect indifference as to what the divine will decides are the quintessence of the spiritual life.... All the setbacks in our perfection come only from the lack of abandonment, and it is certainly true that it is right to begin, to continue and to finish the spiritual life right there, in imitation of our Saviour who did this with an extraordinary perfection in the beginning, during and at the end of his life\" (Sermon pour le Vendredi Saint, 1622: Oeuvres compl\u00e8tes, X, p. 389).\n\"Many are satisfied with carrying the Lord on their tongue, recounting His marvels and praising Him with great ardour; others carry Him in their hearts with tender and loving affection, which becomes part and parcel of their lives, thinking of Him and speaking to Him. But these two ways of carrying the Lord do not amount to much if the third element of carrying Him in their arms by good works is missing.\" (Sermons 2; O. IX, p. 22)\n\"Do not get all worked up about the future disasters of this world, which may never occur anyway; when and if they do occur, God will give you the strength to bear them. Jesus commanded Saint Peter to walk on the water, but Peter, frightened by a gust of wind and the storm, almost drowned. Then he pleaded with the Lord, Who said to him, \"What little faith you have ... why did you falter?\" And putting forth His hand He saved him. [cf. Mt. 14:31] If God asks you to walk on the turbulent waters of adversity, do not doubt, do not fear, because God is with you. Have courage and you will be safe.\" (Letters 1420; O.

        "raw_content": "Norman Cassidy Referral - Sligo, 5 May 2013\nThe Referrals Committee, Judge Tony Hunt (in the Chair), Sean Barry and Hugh M. Ferguson met at the Turf Club, Curragh, Co. Kildare to consider the referral of Norman Cassidy, trainer, following the refusal of Asiya to start in the Kilcawley Construction Sligo Mares Handicap Hurdle at Sligo on 5th May 2013. The matter was referred as Asiya had already been subject to a 60 day ban from racing from starting stalls, which was incurred at Leopardstown on 15th April 2013, where she refused to race.\nEvidence was heard from Norman Cassidy who said that he couldn\u2019t understand why his mare was refusing to race, in view of the fact that she had schooled successfully through stalls on a number of occasions, and had also won a schooling hurdle race in recent weeks. Mr. Cassidy said he would not run her again unless he was happy she was going to start. He also said that the mare would be put in foal and that he was hopeful that this would also help.\nHaving considered the evidence, the Referrals Committee disqualified Asiya from running in future subject to a stay being put on the disqualification for as long as she does not refuse to race.",

        "title": "Cover Story: Experience Hendrix : Illinois Entertainer",
        "raw_content": "Cover Story: Experience Hendrix\nStanding Next To The Mountain\nWhat can possibly be revealed about James Marshall Hendrix that hasn\u2019t already been articulated? Electrified innovator. Arguably the greatest axe slinger of all time. A guitar god gone too soon. An indelible legacy that will live forever. But even the most exalted of rock icons needs a fresh coat of paint, and this spring Jimi gets one thanks to an all-star tour of retro rockers and new-schooled six-string heroes.\nAppearing: Thursday, March 18th at Chicago Theatre in Chicago.\nEnter Experience Hendrix, the biennial, multi-act bill that turns four this year, channeling its namesake\u2019s genius through a marathon evening of individual snippet sets, one-of-a-kind collaborations, and an almighty jam session or two just to amplify the subject\u2019s superiority. And we\u2019re not just talking some questionable cover band, but a laundry list of remarkably authentic disciples, including Joe Satriani, Jonny Lang, Hubert Sumlin, Eric Johnson, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Aerosmith\u2019s Brad Whitford, Doyle Bramhall II, the Isley Brothers\u2019 Ernie Isley, Living Colour, Double Trouble\u2019s Chris Layton, Sacred Steel featuring Robert Randolph, Susan Tedeschi, Los Lobos\u2019 David Hidalgo and Cesar Rosas, plus The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band Of Gypsys\u2019 Billy Cox.\n\u201cThe tour itself is just a fantastic coming together of talent, focus, and heart from everybody loving the music of Hendrix helping bring it together,\u201d says Satriani, a headliner in his own right. \u201cIt\u2019s difficult getting people from all parts of the music world to play together and pull it off, but the thing I love so much about Jimi\u2019s music is that even though it was written so many years ago, it\u2019s continuously unifying. We\u2019re all incredible fans on the tour and I think that magic hangs over everybody. It makes everybody pull together and complement each other the best they can, but quite frankly, we\u2019re all interested in checking each other out as well. It\u2019s a dream come true to be a fan and entertainer at the same time.\u201d\nAnother major player in the mutual admiration society is 28-year-old Lang, who, despite his relative youth, has performed with The Rolling Stones, B.B. King, Buddy Guy, and Aerosmith. Even with all those highlights, he cites the Hendrix tour as the ultimate destination for his technical prowess and unmistakable charisma.\n\u201cThe biggest thing I draw from him is just his sense of melody and his approach is so much different than a lot of guitarists,\u201d Lang contends. \u201cI obviously didn\u2019t know him, but it seems to me like he approached it from a melodic side rather than just trying to play fast riffs. Aside from being a great virtuoso, he was a genius musically. You hear a lot of innovation in his melodies, especially for that time, and in the overall structure of his songs.\u201d\nWhile the majority of the artists were too young to ever collaborate with Hendrix or even meet him personally, Ernie Isley didn\u2019t just know the man behind the music, but they lived in the same house from 1963 to \u201965, just prior to finding global fame. While it\u2019s common knowledge to faithful fans, a lot of casual listeners might not realize Hendrix played guitar on tour for the Isleys during that time frame.\n\u201cTheir guitar player at the time quit and my bother O\u2019Kelly tracked him down,\u201d recalls Isley, who was in junior high at the time and hadn\u2019t yet joined the family troupe. \u201cO\u2019Kelly said, \u2018Can you play something for me?\u2019 and Jimi said, \u2018I can\u2019t because my guitar is in the pawn shop.\u2019 So they went down to the pawn shop and got the guitar back, but it turned out Jimi didn\u2019t have strings because he was broke. So O\u2019Kelly got him strings and within three minutes, it was obvious he had the chops. So he came on board, but didn\u2019t have a place to stay, which is when he moved in with us.\u201d\nAlthough Hendrix\u2019s talents were undeniable, his actual instrument was a little scruffy, according to Isley, which prompted O\u2019Kelly to buy him a new one. \u201cJimi asked for a white Stratocaster, O\u2019Kelly said yes, and Jimi said, \u2018Oh my God.\u2019 So he virtually came into the house with a brand new guitar, he didn\u2019t have to pay for rent, food, or laundry, and was just there like a member of the family. Of course the other guys hated him for it and they didn\u2019t see him until rehearsal, but when he plugged in, they said, \u2018Damn, he\u2019s star of the band now!\u201d\u2019\nAfter his jaunt with the Isley Brothers and several other short-lived stints ended, a move to London resulted in the formation of The Jimi Hendrix Experience and also allowed the leader to be consumed by a rock \u2018n\u2019 roll explosion. Besides meeting members of The Rolling Stones, The Who, and Cream, Hendrix also basked in the blues scene. In fact, 78-year-old guitarist Hubert Sumlin, best known for his tenure with Howlin\u2019 Wolf\u2019s band, can testify to that greatness firsthand, thanks to multiple impromptu performances.\n\u201cYou know I love Jimi and I loved him from the first day I saw him,\u201d Sumlin assures. \u201cWe met in London when [Wolf and his band] were playing Royal Albert Hall, and in walked Jimi straight to the bandstand with his earrings, big hat, and guitar. We were flying back to America the next day and Jimi came back with us on the plane and we did it again the next night at Radio City [Music Hall]. Wolf hugged Jimi, thanked him and said, \u2018You\u2019re all right. I hope you make a million.'\u201d\nAn understatement, but a foreshadowing nonetheless as Hendrix quickly conquered the European market, later crossing over Stateside thanks to iconic appearances at 1967\u2019s Monterey Pop, 1969\u2019s Woodstock, and 1970\u2019s Isle Of Wight festivals. Throughout, The Jimi Hendrix Experience cranked out Are You Experienced? (\u201cPurple Haze,\u201d \u201cHey Joe,\u201d \u201cThe Wind Cries Mary\u201d), Axis: Bold As Love (\u201cLittle Wing,\u201d \u201cCastles Made Of Sand,\u201d \u201cWait Until Tomorrow\u201d), Electric Ladyland (\u201cAll Along The Watchtower,\u201d \u201cGypsy Eyes,\u201d \u201cHave You Ever Been To Electric Ladyland\u201d), and, later, the eponymous Band Of Gypsys live album.\n\u201cSo I\u2019m sitting in study hall, sometime in 1967, and the guys near me are reading about the Are You Experienced? album in a magazine and see that Jimi played with the Isley Brothers,\u201d Ernie recalls. \u201cSo everyone starts asking me about that and I say, \u2018Not only did I know him, but he lived in my house!\u2019 To which everybody asked, \u2018Why didn\u2019t you ever say anything?\u2019 The truth was, no one ever asked and seemed to just soak up all the information from what they heard on radio or in magazines. So then someone asked \u2018Who\u2019s better, Clapton or Hendrix?\u2019 and I said, \u2018Hendrix, not because of what you hear on the records, but from what I heard him play without an amplifier.\u2019\n\u201cI remember being about 11 with my math and social studies book on the dining room table while he was playing guitar as an ambulance went by and he tried to make a guitar sound to match it. I relate to the person and continue to relate in a different way than virtually anybody else because of him living in the house and my older brothers being in the business. I can still remember playing kickball in the backyard and them hearing him and the band in the basement starting up \u2018Twist And Shout.\u2019 We\u2019d all look at Jimi, and even though he might not be looking at you, he\u2019d hit a note, sustain it, look around like there was something flying around in the room, then catch it, pick back up where he was in the song, then look over at you and wink.\u201d\nOn an academic binge, Satriani studied all the albums and bootlegs and came to the conclusion that Hendrix\u2019s talent was absolutely inbred and nothing that could ever be trained, properly mimicked, or copied to any notable degree. \u201c[Growing up] when Jimi\u2019s music would come through the stereo speakers, I was transfixed and I couldn\u2019t figure out why I was feeling the way I did, but it was completely cathartic. \u2018What was that?\u2019 It got me started on my own journey that day of who I was and what I was doing, which eventually led me to pick up guitar. Technically the guy was so innovative in what he did and his technique was so amazing. He sounded like he never practiced a day in his life and that he was playing completely from the heart, making it up as he went along and it felt like he was doing it just for you. None of it could ever be learned at a clinic. All the musical and physical talent was so rare \u2014 one in a million, really.\u201d\nFor more with Experience Hendrix artists, grab the March issue free throughout Chicagoland.\nThomas Basham says:\nThe difference between Jimi Hendrix and everyone else (excluding the way he could bend a note) he made the guitar sing. He sang and his guitar sang with him. He expressed a feeling and the guitar expressed that feeling. My fellow Hendrix freaks can all sing the notes played on the guitar note for note. Like Muhammed Ali, Hendrix is the G.O.A.T (greates of all time).\n\u00ab The Avett Brothers interview\nHigh On Fire reviewed \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Trump's advisor Sebastian Gorka warns North Korea not to 'test' US as country is now a 'hyperpower'\nDiscussion in 'The Americas' started by Averageamerican, Aug 11, 2017.\nThe IndependentAugust 9, 2017\nA top aide to Donald Trump has warned North Korea not to \u201ctest\u201d the United States, because the country is now a \u201chyperpower\u201d.\nSebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to Mr Trump, spoke to Fox News amid reports that North Korea would soon be able to carry out a nuclear strike on the US homeland.\nMr Trump had responded to the news by declaring that North Korea would be \u201cmet with fire and fury like the world has never seen\u201d if they continued to escalate their threats.\nMr Gorka explained that Mr Trump\u2019s words were meant as a warning to North Korea: \u201cDon\u2019t test American, and don\u2019t test Donald J Trump\u201d.\n\u201cWe are not just a superpower,\u201d Mr Gorka said. \u201cWe were a superpower, we are now a hyperpower \u2026 The message is very clear: Don\u2019t test this White House.\u201d\nThe word \u201chyperpower\u201d refers to a nation that dominates in all areas, from economics and military might to cultural attitudes and language. The term was first popularised by French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine in 1999, when he suggested that the US had become a unilateral power that needed to be controlled.\nPARIS\u2014 Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine says that he now defines the United States as a \"hyperpower,\" a new term that he thinks best describes \"a country that is dominant or predominant in all categories.\"\nAverageamerican, Aug 11, 2017\nAmerican \u2018hyperpower\u2019 not going away any time soon\nBack when he was chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Colin Powell is reported to have remarked that no one wants America to be the world\u2019s policeman, but guess who everyone calls whenever they need a cop? Regardless of whether or not Powell actually said that, more than twenty years later it remains true in its essentials. It also explains why America and American power are not going away any time soon.\nIn the quarter of a century since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union the US has enjoyed a degree of global influence that is arguably unrivalled in human history. That hegemony \u2014 what once led a French foreign minister to refer to America as a \u201chyperpower\u201d (it wasn\u2019t meant as a compliment) \u2014 is now being challenged on many sides.\nRussia is reasserting itself in the areas that used to make up the Soviet Union and has, in recent weeks, moved into the Middle East, an area from which its armed forces have largely been absent for decades. China is building up a military that it hopes will eventually match the economic clout it has acquired over the last decade and is daring the US to challenge it in the South China Sea. Regional powers from India to South Africa to Brazil are becoming increasingly important economically and the European Union, for all of its struggles over the last two years, continues to grow as a force to be reckoned with both politically and economically.\nAmerica is now learning how to operate in a multi-polar world, but even if its economic power and political influence are no longer unrivalled that does not mean they are diminished in the ways that some other countries might hope for and some politicians in Washington fear.\nAs data compiled by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, a think tank, show, last year the US spent more on its military than the defence budgets of China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, France, the UK, India and Germany combined. Stop for a second and think about that. Regardless of whether you think that is a good or a bad thing it is, by any measure, extraordinary.\nIt leads, in turn, to a more subtle, but arguably more important, point: reach.\nFor all the talk of rising Chinese power, as The Economist recently noted, China\u2019s entire announced defence budget is about what the US spends just on its navy. The result is that Washington can face down China in the oceans of South-East Asia and deploy troops in several parts of Africa and maintain a significant presence in Europe while fighting in both the Middle East and Afghanistan and still be prepared to deploy to Latin America on a few hours notice.\nAgain, you don\u2019t need to approve of this to be impressed by it, and no one with any credibility is arguing that this reach is going to be challenged by any other power any time soon.\n\u201cIn the quarter of a century since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union the US has enjoyed a degree of global influence that is arguably unrivalled in human history.\u201d\u201d\n-Gordon Robison\nMilitary strength, however, is not the only part of this equation.\nThe world\u2019s most widely traded commodity \u2014 oil \u2014 is bought and sold exclusively in US dollars. Various countries have grumbled and threatened to change this for decades, but none have and in the immediate future none will \u2014 because the world\u2019s financial markets prefer dollars to any other currency on offer.\nThe dollar remains the global reserve currency. That might change someday, but it is not going to happen in the next five to ten years. In the meantime, it is to the dollar that economies in crisis default as a first step toward putting their economic houses in order.\nFor all its ups and downs \u2014 and despite the rise of challengers like the Euro \u2014 the US dollar remains the final resort of countries looking for a safe haven. In the early 1990s Lebanon, wracked by war and hyper-inflation, effectively (though never officially) began using the US dollar as its currency. American money provided a degree of stability and predictability at a moment when the country sorely needed it. Lebanon has recovered, but its view of the dollar as a safe haven is still widely shared.\nThere are many other things one could mention: the soft, but all-pervasive, power of Hollywood; the global reach of America\u2019s pop music industry. America\u2019s leading role in computers and technology (one may do great things anywhere in the world, but to get truly rich one has to make an idea succeed in Silicon Valley).\nFor better or worse America has even managed to make its legal system, especially its banking and wire fraud laws, close to universally applicable \u2014 as various foreign banks and Fifa have learnt the hard way. Once again, I am not saying one needs approve of any of this. But it is the reality with which we all live, for now and for the foreseeable future.\nThings change. Empires rise and fall. Power ebbs and flows. None of this is really open for debate. It is one thing, however, to acknowledge this truism of history, and another to assume that because all things must pass, America\u2019s time has passed.\nGordon Robison, a longtime Middle East journalist and US political analyst, teaches political science at the University of Vermont.\nHe is referring to the US having become a \"hyperpower\" after Trump came to office.\nHe said: \"Don't test this Whitehouse\".

        "raw_content": "Hampi is located in the northern part of Karnataka. It is one of the popular temple towns of South India. Hampi was a part of the Vijayanagara Empire and it is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. For Hindu followers, Hampi is still a spiritual hub. It was under the Kingdom of Maurya during the 3rd century. During excavation, the archaeologists found a seal which was dated to 2nd century CE. In the Vijayanagar Kingdom, Hampi was a beautiful place during the period 1343 to 1565.\nDuring the 14th century, Kampili Kingdom was at its best. The brothers Harihara and Bukka were in-charge of the kingdom. They had a fight with Mohammed Bin Tughlaq once and lost it. The Tughlaq took the brothers into custody along with some others. Because of their brilliance, the brothers were sent out from the jail. Then they made Kampili into the Vijayanagara Kingdom. But it was made into a reality by Harihara 1 and Bukka 1. Hampi\u2019s one side was Tungabhadra River and other three sides were covered with hills. Hampi was naturally protected from the invaders. In 1800 only Hampi leftovers were examined.\nThe Stone Chariot of Hampi\nThe Stone chariot is something that you should first visit in Hampi. It is a beautiful treat for your eyes. It is a holy place which is devoted to Garuda. This is within the Vittala temple compound. There was a huge statue of Garuda on top of the Chariot, but currently, nothing is there. This stone chariot comes under the three chariots of India, the other two being Orissa\u2019s Konark and Tamil Nadu\u2019s Mahabalipuram. This was made by ruler Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagara kingdom in the 16th century. Once he had a fight at Odissa where he saw the Konark Sun chariot. He wanted to build something like that in his region. The architectural brilliance of the Chariot is really worth exploring. The people of Hampi believe that the world will end the moment this Chariot moves from its present status.\nHome of Vijayanagara Kings and Queens\nPhoto by rambla\nWhen we discuss Hampi, all of us will be verbal about the musical pillars and Vittala temples. But there\u2019s another interesting place where the Vijayanagara Royal family used to stay earlier. It is actually stretched across 59000 sq mts. At present the whole place in ruins. But if you move around the place you can get some idea about their amazing lifestyle. The Vijayanagara Empire was centered on Hampi. This royal home had worship places, underground compartments, containers, stages, and halls. More than 45 buildings were there in the complex. You could see the Mughal and Vijayanagara style of architecture in the constructions. The frontage of the palaces is either east or north. A strong Mughal influence in structural design is visible at the Lotus Mahal.\nPhoto by MysteryBee\nThis temple is devoted to Lord Shiva. During the term of Raja Deva Raya 2, the temple was made under the guidance of Lakkana Dandesha. Virupaksha temple has many devotees and they visit the temple in the last month of every year. In the month of February, every year, they conduct the Chariot festival. It was made sometime during the 7th century in a very small manner. Lord Shiva\u2019s deity was made in the 9th century. Later, it was converted into a big temple complex. The Chalukya and Hoysala periods were more significant in the development of Virupaksha temple. Vijayanagara kingdom was under threat when the Muslim invaders attacked. But this temple never was under any threat. In the 19th century, some additions were made to the Virupaksha temple.\nPhoto by nickjohnson\nHampi has many temples such as Saraswathi temple, Achyuta Raya temple, and Sasivekalu Ganesha temple. If you visit these temples, you will come to know the architectural excellence of Vijayanagara style. You must also visit the Lotus Mahal, Dassara Dibba and Hampi Bazar where you could find old coins, handicrafts, handmade bags and designer scarf. Hampi bazaar is a place where can spend hours shopping and exploring India\u2019s rich culture.\nFeatured Photo by rajagopal_rajeev\nHampiHampi ChariotKarnataka TourismVijayanagara Empire",

        "raw_content": "EPS comes out of Amma\u2019s shadow Politics and brain fever Will it be stable? Welcome to democracy... Yellow and red cards 365 degree Appraisal Jails are criminal dens; but who cares? Elections: Democracy Drama Baker\u2019s Dozen Hung!! Time for Action A Political Game? But not for RV, CS! Back to the future for the Congress Time for action is now BJP in a spree of 'acquisitions and mergers' It\u2019s agitation time in the hills History beckons MODI... End competitive \u2018Dravidian\u2019 politics To be or not to be Multi-party contests, more freebies... Champions of change Politician \u2013 business nexus\nLike it or not, there is no denying that Narendra Modi has been the most polarising face in modern Indian history. Some love him, some hate him and very few like me fall in-between. If you ask his devotees, they would say that he transformed Gujarat like no one before. If you ask others, they would point out to data gymnastics plus his being in the seat of power when 2002 happened. Narendra Modi comes as a contrast to Manmohan Singh.\nDr. Singh was a brilliant academic, a scrupulously honest soft-spoken gentleman, who in the 1990s had turned\nIndia around. He was never a terrific speaker and so hardly communicated with people his multifarious achievements as prime minister. Aloof and media shy, he believed that his work would speak for itself. He was hemmed in by the compulsions of coalition politics and never really had the final word on economics; largely because he was not the political boss and as some are prone to point out, he in later years began to like the trappings of his office.\nIn contrast, Modi was schooled in the cesspool of local politics, had a penchant for street fighting, has been a feisty orator and a popular chief minister who ran his ship with an iron fist. In his cabinet, this RSS pracharak with modest upbringing, was not the first among equals, but was No 1, No 2, No 3\u2026 No 10 all rolled in one. As India spun into a mood of pessimism, following myriad scams that rocked it with alarming frequency, it needed someone who was unshackled and who would be his own boss.\nModi fitted the bill...\nWhen he was anointed to lead the BJP, I had mixed feelings. While he did have the qualifications and may have been clean on Gujarat (the SIT said it had found nothing amiss, albeit multiples leads), he was quick to defend 2002 with Newton\u2019s third law of motion (he denied making that statement). He was egoistic: remember the '15,000' boast at Uttarakhand disaster (later the journalist backtracked) and his 56 inches chest claim? I have always looked upon Prime Ministers as statesmen who don't talk the language of the fish market.\nBut in the end, India voted for him and that settled the issue for me. After all, he would be our Prime Minister, India\u2019s Prime Minister. At the end of 365 days of his reign, it\u2019s time to take stock. Read on\u2026\nImproving foreign relations\u2026\nLet\u2019s first talk about the positives.\nNo one thought Modi would have the gravitas to hit it off internationally. He proved us wrong. He has been on whistle-stop foreign jaunts, leaving good first impressions. Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, France, Japan, Indonesia, Russia, Sri Lanka, USA; the man has been everywhere. When Obama invited him to the US, he jumped at it with alacrity. Forgotten was the ignominy of having been refused a visa to that country for ten plus years. Soon the two shared bonhomie and Modi invited the American President home, which Obama happily agreed to. The two tall democracies of the world were seen to have inched closer in friendship.\nModi also sought to shake hands with enemy Nawaz Sharief, suggesting that he was ready to evolve a global statesman. Forgotten was the diatribe that he had once leashed on Manmohan Singh, accusing him of serving biryani to the Pakistan premier. That things did not pan out well between Modi and Sharief, given their blow-hot, blow-cold approach, is another matter. Modi next visited China and Korea as the magician who can sell the idea of India to anyone who is willing to lend an ear.\nHe was well prepared. He made the right noises and the right moves like playing the drums in Japan giving out the impression that he has a soft side as well. Clearly the idea is to build bridges in the first year. The visits created positive press for India and have promised investments into India.\nIn USA, American businesses promised to invest $41 billion in the next three years, in India. France agreed to support India\u2019s candidature for a permanent member seat in the UN Security Council, similar to the promise made by Obama when he visited India a few years ago during the UPA rule. Canada announced it would supply uranium for India\u2019s civil nuclear plant for the next five years. Sri Lanka released Indian fishermen as a goodwill gesture. Nepal and India signed agreements on traditional medicine, tourism and youth affairs. Australia has promised to enter into a free trade agreement sometime next year. Japan has committed $35 billion in investments and financing and the bilateral trade between the two countries may double to touch USD 25 billion. Well, when it rains, it pours.\nThe diaspora greeted Modi everywhere, giving him the status that\u2019s normally reserved for a rock star. Was that because of the curiosity factor of an ordinary man\u2019s rise to superstardom or was it the belief that this was the messiah who would take us to the promised land? Remember Modi has milked his humble origins to the hilt. Modi\u2019s English speaking skills added to his persona. Modi is telling the world, \u201cIf you want to deal with India, deal with me. I am a man of action.\u201d The quick work in Yemen and later Nepal provided proof of speedy action.\nForeign tours can create only so much of goodwill. There has to be action on the ground. A key initiative introduced by Modi sarkar in this regard is \u201cMake in India.\u201d It\u2019s a smart slogan to invite the world to invest in India.\nThe idea that products should be made in India means we need to open various sectors to FDI. Many years ago when China stepped the gas on economic reforms it demanded international investors first invest in their infrastructure. India was less fortunate; they opened the market to FII and to some non-core areas for FDI. But now that India has travelled 25 years into market economy, it makes sense to invite investors to other sectors as well.\nThat\u2019s precisely what Modi is doing. He is trying to propagate exports: either by Indian firms or by foreign companies who set shop in India and export the produce, including to their motherland. Implicit in that scheme is the assumption that either India has or will provide the infrastructure, the manpower and the skill-set to make it happen. Either way, it\u2019s fine. 25 sectors including automobiles, information technology, pharmaceuticals, ports, aviation, leather, hospitality, chemicals and railways are being opened up. Except space (74 per cent), defence (49 per cent) and news media (26 per cent), 100 per cent FDI is allowed in all the other sectors, including railway infrastructure.\nThere have been quick responses from industry. Like: the Spice Group is investing Rs 500 crore to start a phone-manufacturing unit in Uttar Pradesh. Samsung may establish 10 \u2018MSME-Samsung Technical Schools.\u2019 Hitachi has suggested it would increase its headcount in India from 10,000 to 13,000 and would double its revenues from India from 100 billion yen in 2013 to 210 billion yen. Huawei is opening a new research and development (R&D) campus in Bangalore, investing USD 170 million. Airbus has indicated that it will manufacture its products in India and invest $ 2 Billion. And Jaguar Land-Rover(JLR) announced that it would move production of the Land Rover Defender to its Pune facility.\nIn the last many years while China was fast emerging as the hub of manufacturing, India was the hub of knowledge. Apparently, India has now begun to realise that manufacturing can lead to exponential growth in service. We could also give China a run for its money as indications are flowing in that for the first time in several years FDI inflow to China has fallen.\nA second initiative of Modi was drawn upon the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, an initiative to clean India. Named Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, it seeks to cover 4000 odd, to provide sanitation infrastructure. It\u2019s an idea that was dear to Gandhiji\u2019s heart. Cleanliness may or may not be next to Godliness but it gives a sense of pride to people around. Globally, people judge your country based on the status of your roads and the status of the loos. The initiative hasn't come a day too soon. Modi nominated nine leading personalities to take the cause and ever since the chain has moved on. For sure, it requires the collective effort of the people to keep the roads clean.\nA total of Rs 62,000 crore is being budgeted for this project under which restrooms will be provided to all households living below the poverty line. Remember, India is a country where 65 per cent of the people have access to modern mobiles, only 47 per cent have access to sanitation facilities. Yes, they defecate in the open with a mobile in their hand. The statistic should not just shock, but shame us. Even if we can push that percentage to 65 per cent by 2019, we would have moved closer to Gandhiji\u2019s ideal of a clean India.\nIn India deals are in cash. When you want to issue a cheque, how do you feel if the other guy says he does not have a bank account? Such days are likely to become pass\u00e9.\nIt\u2019s the NDA government\u2019s biggest social welfare programme, the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY). An exercise in financial inclusion, it was announced during Modi\u2019s Independence Day speech on 15 August 2014. Eradicate \u2018financial untouchability\u2019 of the poor by opening at least one bank account for every family in the country in less than six months, he exhorted. Modi called it a national priority and said the scheme seeks to 'universal access to banking facilities' starting with \"Basic Banking Accounts\" with overdraft facility of Rs.5000 after six months and RuPay Debit card with inbuilt accident insurance cover of Rs. 1 lakh. By 31 March 2015, 14.71 crore accounts were opened and Rs 15,670 crore collected. It\u2019s another matter 8.52 crore accounts have nil balance.\nThe idea that everyone should have a bank account is great. It will help direct transfer of subsidies to the eligible without routing it through a middleman. Aadhaar was the first step in that direction. PMJDY is the next logical step. But pushing it in practice is critical. As it is, a little more than 50 per cent of the accounts are non-operational. Time will tell if this scheme will work. It of-course is an extension of the financial inclusion scheme started by UPA government. Experts feel that lollipops like zero balance, free insurance and overdraft facility would result in existing account holders creating new accounts for themselves.\nAnother welcome initiative is the setting up of the MUDRA bank, which is intended to provide funding to the unfunded. The trigger for this is the fact that while the large industry employs 1.25 crore and has huge banking facilities and other benefits, the small enterprises employ a humongous 12 crore and have few banking options. Incidentally, 5.75 crore are self-employed and use funds of Rs 11 lakh crore.\nShould MUDRA work well it would be a big thumbs up for this government.\nInsuring the uninsured...\nIn insurance, two innovative schemes have come: the Prime Minister\u2019s Jeevan Bhima Yojana and the Prime Minister\u2019s Jeevan Suraksha Yojana, both term plans. The first one is at a premium of Rs 330 per annum and the other is at Rs 12 per annum. Together, it\u2019s under Rs 1 per day. You get a cover of Rs 2 lakh for death under the first plan and Rs 2 lakh for accident cover under the second plan. These covers are provided on a no-questions asked basis. If Mudra meant funding the unfunded, if Jan Dhan Yojna meant banking the unbanked, this is insuring the uninsured.\nPMO all powerful...\nA change in the way the administration is functioning is becoming visible. The PMO has become all-powerful. Administering through the bureaucracy is setting in with Modi reaching out directly to senior bureaucrats, sidelining the ministerial colleagues. The ministers are increasingly reluctant to articulate on issues concerning their ministries and do not respond to queries raised. That\u2019s a far cry from the way they were noisy when in Opposition.\nMaybe Modi wants the ministers not to voice divergent views in public. In UPA II senior ministers were seen airing multiple views, each different from that of the other, and some contradicting even the views of the Prime Minister. Dr. Singh was too much of a gentleman to take cudgels with them. Modi is grounded in the heat and dust of politics. Administratively, he is a one-man army. Both men are men-of-detail. Modi\u2019s ministers don't speak or are scared of speaking. The last time we saw that in the Center was when Mrs. Indira Gandhi was prime minister.\nA clean image: no scam of substance...\nA strong plus is the apparent lack of big-ticket corruption during the last one year. There has not been one scam of any substance reported so far and industrial houses are on record saying that the incidence of corruption has dropped dramatically. That\u2019s obviously a great achievement in a country where corruption is a by-word and in the past has been justified by saying its an international phenomena.\nPersonally I think there is very little point in giving credit to this government on the coal block fund raising since the Supreme Court mandated it. We have been talking about black money and parallel economy for ages. But precious little has been done about it with every political party equally guilty. There was talk of transferring 15 lakh to every Indian citizen bank account, after bringing the money home. Now the names are not being declared by hiding behind a technicality, the very self same technicality that the UPA stood by.\nThe loose canons...\nThe other major catastrophe of this government is that it has loose cannons both as ministers and others who make statements that are uncouth and unacceptable. Inflammatory statements that divide people by religion have been bandied about with gay abandon. In a very different sense, the prime minister lowered the dignity of his office and that of India by claiming on foreign soil that he was cleaning up the mess and the muck created in the last 60 years. Is he so blind that he could not notice that those 60 years also involved 6 years of NDA rule?\nWhile the BJP won a few states post May 2014 and the Prime Minister was quick to take credit because he campaigned there extensively, he chickened out of the fight half way in the Delhi elections where he threw in more than half the BJP MPs in an election that at the Lok Sabha level is the equivalent of a mere 7 seats. And the public slapped the party unceremoniously. Arvind Kejriwal, love him or hate him, won 67 out of the 70 seats. It now appears that the Central government seems to be trying its very best to ensure that he doesn't govern.\nOn balance, one would think that the Modi government has surely started on the right note, but it needs to check its U-turns because there is only so much that people will believe and, most importantly, they need to learn to respect people\u2019s verdict. Like I had said last year, Narendra Modi has in him to walk into history. It is up to him to do it. He can do it by using the right aspects of his personality; he must curb the wrong side, else he would end up on the wrong side of history.\nShoulder : The NDA anniversary\nRobber barons everywhere Feb 28,2017\nPolicy changes that would have worked...

        "raw_content": "Orthodox and Catholics: still no changes\nWhile some journalists expected it to be now \u2018a conservative counter-revolution\u2019, now boundless ecumenism and liberalism, the pontificate of Benedict XVI has so far answered only the famous slogan of \u2018moderateness and carefulness\u2019. The Synod of Bishops made no radical moves. The new pope\u2019s first encyclical, which is expected to be issued before long, may also prove to be boring and careful, like the pontiff\u2019s first speeches. No breakthrough is seen on the Russian front either.\nThe visits made to Moscow by Cardinal Walter Kasper, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, followed by that of Archbishop Giovanni Lajolo, Vatican Secretary for the State Relations (actually, minister of foreign affairs) have brought nothing new. It looks like the Russian Ministry for Foreign Affairs has not met the Vatican\u2019s expectation to elevate the diplomatic relations to the level of full-fledged embassies. The Russian Catholics will hardly be included in the Public Chamber notwithstanding Lajolo\u2019s expressed wish they may be.\nBoth prelates embraced representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church ceremoniously, thus declaring their greatest respect. In public however, it was again translated into the Catholic interests calling to \u2018equal dignity\u2019 of Churches (clearly, in Russia, not in Italy or Spain) and to the need to \u2018forget the past resentments\u2019 including the most recent transfer of the Uniate cardinal\u2019s see to Kiev. In response, the Danilov Monastery also gave some public stings, accusing the Catholics once again of proselytism and attempts to reshape the Ukrainian confessional map.\nAs the Vatican\u2019s official position suggests, the Catholics should not be engaged in proselytism. Cardinal Kasper even stated that Russia was not seen as a missionary field. But many Catholics \u2018on earth\u2019, especially Polish natives, as well as Russian neophytes who used to be Orthodox, do not think so. Both are eager to make Russia a part of the West. After the working group for resolving Orthodox-Catholic problems reached the specific places where the Orthodox complained, not without reason, of proselytism, the Vatican realized that the problem had better be hushed up; otherwise it will have either to change its official position or to recall its missionaries.\nThe most important thing however is that the factor of John Paul II\u2019s insistent dream of visiting Russia has passed into history. Benedict XVI seems to have more important things to think about. It is not accidental that both prelates, Kasper and Lajolo, have made it very clear: a papal visit is certainly desirable but it is in no way planned for 2006, if it is planned at all for the time being. In short, a sensation on the Orthodox-Catholic front will not happen.",

        "title": "IWF -The FDA Must Avoid Policies that Would Inflame the Opioid Crisis",
        "raw_content": "The FDA Must Avoid Policies that Would Inflame the Opioid Crisis\nLast week, the Independent Women\u2019s Forum (IWF) convened an expert discussion panel on the opioid crisis with Jessica Hulsey Nickel (the President & Chief Executive Officer of the Addiction Policy Forum), and Charmaine Yoest (Associate Director at the Office of National Drug Control Policy) in the Executive Office of the President.\nBoth Nickel and Yoest shared poignant stories about the epidemic which has claimed more than 200,000 lives over the past 20 years.\nBoth experts agreed that a comprehensive government approach is needed to ensure that the crisis of opioid addiction and abuse is addressed without limiting access to those with legitimate needs for medications.\nThe conversation underscored the dire seriousness of the situation, but also provided real insight into how the private and non-profit sectors can and are working with government to help end the crisis and get those affected the care and support that they need.\nSpecifically, one comment from Charmaine Yoest stood out:, the federal government must ensure that opioids are not \u201centering the U.S. from overseas.\u201d\nThis is paramount, as the epidemic has in part been driven by large amounts of illegally imported or illegally manufactured synthetic opioids.\nHowever, drug importation is a serious proposal under consideration by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).\nThe FDA has convened a panel to investigate possible scenarios in which they would permit the importation of foreign pharmaceuticals in an effort to lower the cost of prescription drugs.\nWhile we applaud the administration\u2019s willingness to look at any policy that may help lower costs, importation is not the answer and, particularly when it comes to opioids and drug abuse, could actually harm public health.\nThe truth is that importing prescription drugs would add unverified drugs into the U.S. supply chain, creating a public health crisis as pharmacies and patients grapple with new uncertainty over what is in their drugs and if the drugs are safe. Essentially, a two-track system of unregulated and regulated drugs would emerge, creating uncertainty and undermining a level playing field in the field of medicine.\nAccording to a report from the World Health Organization, as much as 10 percent of the prescriptions in developing countries are fake.\nWhen importing prescription drugs, it can be difficult (if not impossible) to truly know their origins. From ingredient provenance all the way to shipping and packaging, pharmaceutical manufacturing is far more complicated than compressing ingredients into a pill and, in the United States at least, is highly regulated and tested to ensure the public\u2019s safety.\nNor is this an abstract problem. Faulty drugs kill thousands across the world each year and in, one particularly memorable event, more than 200 people died in Lahore, Pakistan because a pharmacy used cheap and therefore poisonous ingredients.\nGiven the current opioid crisis, the threat is even larger. Increasing the supply of unverified drugs into the country merely provides another avenue for opioids to enter the United States and counteracts the administrations substantive work to combat drug abuse. It\u2019s a problem already encountered, as counterfeit drugs that are actually opioids are sold as a different medication.\nLikewise, in August of this year, the FDA had to reprimand 21 web-based companiesin the United States for marketing \u201cunapproved opioids.\u201d Adding other sources of opioids for Americans already suffering from addiction just makes this problem worse.\nIt\u2019s encouraging that the White House has made the opioids crisis a top priority and the progress made so far has been encouraging. However, Americans must remain vigilant against policies that could, however inadvertently, undermine these efforts.\nImportation of foreign drugs is one such policy, threatening public health and adding fuel to the ongoing opioid crisis. America needs a level playing field undergirded by a reliable regulatory process, not a backdoor channel to shady drugs.",

        "raw_content": "The Army Chief of Staff announced that effective July 4, 2001, Independence Day, male soldiers may carry black umbrellas when wearing the class A or B service uniform or the traditional dress blue. Use of the umbrella when in the field or when wearing the Battle Dress Uniform (BDU) in garrison remains prohibited. The Chief did promise one feminist group that further study would determine the feasibility of allowing women soldiers to carry the umbrella while wearing Maternity BDUs. The Chief stated, during a press conference, that he didn\u2019t know why this sensible change was not made by one of his predecessors and that it [the change] would serve as a further illustration of the Army\u2019s desire and willingness to move into the future.\nPentagon rumor has it that the Chief tired of watching soldiers standing by Pentagon doorways on rainy days, umbrella hitch hiking, waiting for an accommodating woman, airmen or sailor to come by. Another rumor from the field implies that the reason for the change is that the colors on the flash of the new black beret run when they get wet.\nThe chief tasked the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) to ensure that Military Clothing Sales Stores stocked this new optional clothing bag item in sufficient quantities to meet the need. Although the announcement did not mention a specific brand of umbrella, those carried must meet specifications outlined in a message released to the field today.\nThe Chief also tasked the Sergeant Major of the Army (SMA) with ensuring that soldiers know the standards for umbrella use. The SMA tasked noncommissioned officers across the Army to be the Army\u2019s standard bearers and ensure that soldiers understood the history and proper use of the umbrella. Along this line, the Army distributed Power Point presentations and briefing material on the proper way to care for and display the umbrella. Women in the Army fear that those who\u2019ve never carried the umbrella while in uniform may not do so properly and are offering advice along that line so as to ensure that the symbolism of this unique uniform item is not lost.\nIn making his decision, the Chief ruled out other options such as the umbrella hat, often seen in baseball parks in the summer. Proponents of the umbrella hat were disappointed because it also sported dual cup holders that could augment the popular camel backs in use by soldiers today. The chief also rejected NATO woodland camouflage and Kevlar versions of the umbrella and umbrella hat. This of course, prompted an immediate response from the congressional districts that manufacture these items.\nMembers of Congress also questioned the Chief\u2019s decision regarding the short time line it gives for fielding the umbrella. Some expressed concern that a significant number of them may actually come from communist China or from countries relying on child and slave labor for production. The Director of the Defense Logistics Agency, in a memo to congress, assured them that this was not an issue as most umbrellas in the AAFES inventory meeting the required specifications come from sweatshops here in the United States manned primarily by illegal immigrants who have no employee benefits and are paid less than the minimum wage. On another note, legislation introduced in Congress requires the Chief to address the Army\u2019s reported ammunition shortfall before proceeding with the umbrella fielding. Congress also threatened further hearings on the issue.\nMembers of some military associations called for the Chief\u2019s resignation, adding this change to a list of others they insist continue to lower standards and feminize the Army. One group of former soldiers set out on a protest march to Washington vowing to take this issue to the White House. For the time being, however, they are locked in debate somewhere at a rest stop on Interstate 95 trying to determine whose march it is, whose in charge of it, what\u2019s the agenda and which way is the White House.\nFormer members of the Women\u2019s Army Corps and other women veterans held a protest rally at the Women in the Military Museum located at Arlington National Cemetery. They protested the move as one that will take away this uniform item that is unique to women, causing them to lose their identity and blend in with the rest of the Army.\nSome subordinate unit commanders received reprimands for openly questioning the decision. Subsequently ordered to not discuss it in any public forum most remain silent on the issue. While some accept the change, they are wondering why black and not another color. Others question why they cannot affix unit identities, in the form of branch identification and unit insignia, to the umbrella. Others still, are asking for branch colors and some believe that there should be a distinction between officer and enlisted umbrellas. One suggestion is that officer umbrellas sport a gold braid similar to that seen on the National Color. The chief stated that he might reconsider that point, as soldiers should be able to locate their officers in a rainy day crowd.\nThe chief would not commit to any future uniform changes, although he did admit that others were under review and that he is entertaining some suggestions such as sabers and Stetsons for the cavalry and red suspenders for the field artillery\u2026",

Backed by a gospel choir, the deeply personal pop anthem traces Anavitarte's surrender to Christ as a teenager. Produced by Stephen Leiweke (Chris Tomlin, Sara Groves) and penned by Anavitarte and Melanie Watson, \"Grace Made The First Move\" will be featured on the artist's forthcoming full-length release, Love Moves.\n\u201c'Grace Made The First Move' is about a key moment in my story of salvation,\u201d Anavitarte says. \u201cI wanted to write a song that both focuses listeners and reminds them of the love of God. The chorus encourages us to understand that His love came and rescued us from our sin. The cultural link between the new and old is personified in the bridge, with lyrics from the hymn \u2018Grace Greater Than Our Sin.\u2019\u201d I hope the song will lead many people back to the wonder of\u2014and response to\u2014God\u2019s grace.\u201d\nNashville-based singer/songwriter Erskin Anavitarte has garnered a diverse fanbase around the world with his unique infusion of pop, jazz, country, R&B and hip-hop styles. Following his 2014 debut, Let's Ride, Anavitarte released Look Up in 2015, which featured the watershed single \u201cBlack & White,\u201d a thought-provoking, action-inspiring narrative on race and religion in America.\nAnavitarte is an advocate for orphaned, abandoned and vulnerable children and serves as an artist representative for Holt International. He is also a diversity spokesperson, with a focus on strengthening ministries, engaging the culture and creating impactful art.\nA Texas-born high school basketball standout, Anavitarte received an athletic scholarship to East Tennessee State University and earned an M.Div. from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. He currently resides in Nashville with his wife Kelli and their children.\nFor further information, visit erskinmusic.com or turningpointpr.com. Follow Anavitarte on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.",

        "raw_content": "\"Tales of the Early Republic\"\n\"Jacksonian Miscellanies\" Archives\nA History Resource, and an Experiment in Hypertext Style\nJohn Rubens Smith (1775-1849) West Front of the United States Capitol Watercolor on paper, ca. 1830\n<>From the Library of Congress Web Site (Pointers to more images here)\nby Hal Morris, Copyright 2010\nPermission is permitted to duplicate for your own personal use.\nMay not be duplicated for profit, or for multiple distribution, without permission by author.\nSome Key Features of this site:\nFull text of Abdy, Edward S., Journal of a Residence and Tour in the United States (3 vols, London, 1835). This book is most valuable, in my opinion, as a guided tour of the scattered free black communities in America in the 1830s, and the kind of life they were living. Its 3 volumes and approx. 1200 pages describe the author's 1-1/2 years in the United States. Much of his time was spent in various free African-American communities, from those in large cities like New York, Boston, and Pennsylvania, to those of many smaller cities, as well as several beleaguered clusters of farmers in Indianna and Ohio. Nearly half the book either describes the people of these communities, or describes the mostly very racist attitudes of \"white\" Americans towards them. It is typical of Abdy's perspective that he felt a need to coin the word Africo-Americans. There are very few copies of this book outside of the larger college research libraries. Harper Brothers started to publish it in the U.S., but decided not to, in the current atmosphere of anti-abolitionist hysteria, so it was only published in London until the 1960s, when the Negro University Press issued a small run of a facsimile edition.\nReadings in Jacksonian America: An outline of some available, mostly online, readings (most complete in the area of religion)\nTales of the Early Republic is a organized collection of essays, original sources, and reference material about a part of what is called the Early American Republic. Nearly all of it is about the years from 1815 - 1850, and it is especially focused on the 1830s.\nIt is basically a work of text, albeit hyper-text, and not of multi-media. Its aims as an \"experiment in hypertext style\" are discussed below.\nTimeline of the Jackson Era:\nIf you enter the Timeline, and freely follow the links within it, you may get a sense of the rich complexity of the time. In time, I hope it will reflect something of the sense given in the poem, Muse'e des Beaux Arts:\nWhile someone else is eating or opening a window\nor just walking dully along;\nOn a pond at the edge of the wood\"\n\"In Brueghel's ICARUS, for instance; how everything turns away ...\n\"the expensive delicate ship that must have seen\nHad somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.\"\nI noticed just recently that the same painting described by Auden appears on the dust-jacket of Fernand Braudel's Structures of Everyday Life.\nA Large Collection of Original Sources:\nThe Jacksonian Miscellanies are a very good place to start exploring Tales of the Early Republic. Jacksonian Miscellanies is an electronic newsletter which you can subscribe to, or find by following the link (its frequency has varied over the past 5 years). It consists mostly of excerpts from printed materials from the 1830s, with a moderate amount of explanations. To date, it includes nearly 100 items.\nThe plain text (without web enhancements) of Jacksonian Miscellanies is meant to be interesting enough by itself, and to provide extra pleasures when viewed on the Web, where it is integrated with the reference and other materials.\nI have tried throughout the narratives, etc., to provide a large number of links, so that ideally, whenever you see a person's name, such as William Morgan, a place name, such as Palmyra, NY, a theological term that keeps popping up, such as Arminianism, you can find out what they mean without having to run to a reference book, or, more commonly,\nA Complete Book, Describing New York from 1816 to 1860 Online:\nReminiscences of New York By an Octogenarian (1816 - 1860), by Charles H. Haswell, published in 1896. It describes, in a wealth of tiny details, a time when Greenwich Village was a village, and one could hunt snipe and other birds in what is now south of midtown Manhattan. It has about 100 engravings, of which 32 are in the completed portion of the book, found here. The set of links to references is very incomplete, so it is not such a good example of an \"experiment in hypertext style\".\nHow to characterize this period? There is much justification for the title: Birth of the Modern: World Society 1815-1830, that Paul Johnson gave to his international study of the early years of the period. The birth of the modern United States could be placed, I think, a few years later, more in the center of the period.\nIn material terms alone, America underwent phenomenal change. It more than doubled in territory, and likewise in settled territory. With the transportation revolution of canals, railroads, and better wagon roads, trips of a week were reduced to a day, and day trips to a couple of hours. Circuit riding lawyers and judges, who once spent months on the road, from town to town could spend weekends at home. Distant parts of the U.S. could fulfill each other's needs and wants, knitting the nation together as a functioning whole, so that American manufacturing, with a vast market to serve, could grow from infancy to being a ubiquitous part of life.\nThe telegraph annihilated distance, where news was concerned. No longer would it be possible to fight battles weeks after an armistice was signed; in the westernmost states, yesterday's Senate debate would be printed in the local newspaper today, instead of a month from today.\nSocially, habits of deference to class superiority -- between white men anyway -- died out, as did the remaining laws that supported such deference. American mass politics, with its cheerful orchestrated hoopla, was created by Jacksonian Democrats in the late 1820s, then used to defeat them in the \"Tippecanoe and Tyler Too\", or \"Log Cabin and Hard Cider\" campaign of 1840.\nAmerica first developed a national literature: Irving and Cooper, read by an international audience, and then the Transcendentalists and their fellow travelers, like Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, and Melville.\nThe Protestant ideal of knowledge and understanding of the Bible, and of nature, replacing \"priest craft\" -- of reasoning ones way to a correct understanding of God -- reached its high water mark as science seemed to contradict parts of the Bible, as the latest philosophers attacked logical \"proofs\" of Christianity, and as scholarly projects to trace the Bible to its origins foundered.\nSomething else took hold: something that looked to some like a direct encounter with God, and to others like a mere passion induced by charismatic evangelists. The action oriented Methodists, whose handbook was called a \"discipline\", not \"confession\" or \"catechism\", methodically harvested souls in the vast spaces of the frontier beyond the reach of institutions adapted to a more static order of society. Presbyterian revivalists deepened religion in the northeast, and exhorted men -- and women, to do active good to their fellows.\nAs religion embraced emotion, faith, and will, America's colleges, became more dedicated to teaching practical knowledge, and less to religion and the formation of character.\nRegardless of denomination, people were fired up with dreams of the perfectibility of the world. Atheists, those of relaxed religious beliefs, and the most passionate and rigorous Christians dreamed a thousand different dreams of a great rebirth of the world, and started dozens of experiments in communal living.\nAs difficult as it is to make sense of this thirty ring circus, the end result is, I think, that Americans of 1850 seem not all that different from us, while those of the revolutionary period seem much more distant and abstract.\nTales of the Early Republic aims to tell a portion of these stories. It cannot be made into one story; I doubt that in any place and time were the headwaters of change more widely spread over the landscape.\nTales of the Early Republic is also very much a conscious exploration of style -- not of surface style or polish, in which it is weak, but of \"How should hypertext historical presentation be structured?\" A \"Web site\" isn't a book, a movie, or a video game, though it can be and has been made to look like any one of these. Why is a conscious exploration of style needed? Suppose modern movie technology had showed up all at once, like a genie out of a bottle. Would people who only knew plays, books, and pictures, have produced great looking movies with that technology? I suspect not. Effective styles generally take years to evolve.\nThe subject matter -- the early American republic, is suited to this experiment; no single narrative can represent this era; one tends to wander around in it, following dozens of paths that intertwine, but fail to converge. Hypertext, unlike the traditional book, permits this style of exploration.\nMy hope is that this unlinear era will be much better appreciated in the new medium. Maybe networked hypertext will reshape people's taste in history towards the formative eras, and away from the stories of good guys conquering bad guys. Changes in the medium do result, over time, in changes in taste, and the content that serves our tastes. It is hard to imagine Cary Grant \"making it\" in the silent film medium. He needs his voice. I suspect that the Early American Republic, so neglected by most Americans, will find its voice in this new medium.\nI even suspect that by learning to appreciate, and enjoy wandering around in this era, we (and I'm thinking particularly of the more casual amateur historian) may better understand other eras, because to a large extent, they only seem to fit tidily into those smooth, soon-to-be-a-major-motion-picture narratives.\nCaveat: These web pages do not live up to this nice manifesto I have made, but they represent an ongoing attempt to do so, and provide glimpses of the possibilities which I believe exist.\nThe Hayne-Webster Debate\nAn item, of some scholarly appeal is the complete text of the Hayne-Webster Debate. This debate, in the Senate, in January 1830, established Daniel Webster as the champion of a strong union (vs. a weaker association of the states), in an age when interpretations of the Constitution were in flux. The text is enough to fill up about 100 pages in a typical book format. It was the \"big news\" of the day -- we know because so many of the single sheet (4-page) newspapers of 1830 printed long excerpts of the debate over several (weekly) issues -- leaving other news on the back burner.\nThis presentation of the debate is intended as an interesting example of hypertext style, in what might be called the \"zoom lens style\".\nFollowing a brief overview and contextualization, the speech itself is presented on three different \"scales\", or levels of detail:\nan outline made up of brief headers - bare reminders of the content,\na point-by-point summary of the text, greatly condensed,\nStaying at a particular point in the debate, one can \"zoom\" up and down in level of detail; e.g., reading the summary to get an overview, and scanning the outline as a refresher, or to find a particular point to look up in the full text.\nYou might also wish to explore a short essay on the American Whig Party, to which Abraham Lincoln belonged for most of his political career, or a Short Biography of Andrew Jackson, or an interpretation of Social Changes in Jackson Era U.S.A.\nOr you can start with mini-biographies of Lyman Beecher, father of Harriet Beecher Stowe (of Uncle Tom's Cabin fame) and of other notable children, or you might start in with John C. Calhoun. Lyman Beecher and Calhoun are exactly household names, but both are extremely central to the stories of the Early Republic, and I have taken special care to see that they are well linked to other parts of this collection of writings.\nIf you like to browse reference works, you can go straight to the biographical dictionary, or the (quite limited) geography of the U.S. - a repository of descriptions of states, towns, counties, rivers, mostly focused on what they were like, and the events that occurred there in the 1820s and 1840s.\nThere are also small but growing reference works on schools of the time, important churches, a fairly extensive bibliography, a glossary, and set of day-by-day timelines in a very early stage of development.\nI spend some time (though far less that I wish) exploring other history sites on the Web. Some that may be of interest to you are:\n\"Historians and the Web: A Beginner's Guide\", from the December 1995 American Historical Association's Perspectives.\nGeorge Welling's American History project at the University of Gronigen (Netherlands) is nominally about the American Revolution, but has a lot concerning the period up to the Civil War, including my short biography of Andrew Jackson.\nSteve Kreis' Web Page and History Guide: Contains extensive class oriented material on European Intellectual History and on Twentieth Century Europe as well as an excellent guide to improving ones approach to the study of history - particularly in the context of formal classes. \"The purpose of The History Guide is to better prepare yourself for your history classes and to make your time in class more enjoyable and proficient.\"\nThe Gutenberg Project is a source of masses and masses of digitized literature that is out of copyright, and which volunteers have scanned in. You can find all the works of Shakespeare, The Education of Henry Adams, a lot of Coleridge - poetry as well as philosophical writings, Emerson's principal writings, the Book of Common Prayer, a huge amount of Calvin, and of Greek and Latin literature (translated). Also lots of Edgar Rice Burroughs. They also maintain a nicely organized list links to thousands of works in other archives, some in HTML format.\nSHEAR: To request membership in the Society For the History of the Early American Republic, click HERE and, if your browser succeeds in putting you into a mail program, send a message consisting of just:\nsubscribe h-shear\n(it needs to go to listserv@ksuvm.ksu.edu, in case mailing directly from your browser does not work.)\nD-lib Magazine: The Magazine of Digital Library Research is an online magazine, free to all, which deals with a range of issues to do with building digital libraries. It looks rather technical/computer science-ish.\nDigital Libraries Resources, Research, and Projects has links to dozens of projects, as well as papers exploring the \"soft\" (non-technical) issues.\nHere is a site which can send you to many repositories of historic maps online.\nHere is (from the above) a map of the U.S. in 1830. It is part of a sequence of maps showing the territorial growth of the U.S.\nNew Horizons in Scholarly Communication is put up by the Librarians Association of the University of California. There you can find discussions of how to get the advantages, in terms of freedom and speed of communication that online media can provide, while preserving the the filtering function of the peer review system.\nWhat's So Special About the U.S. in the 1830s and 1840s?\nThe era often called the \"Jackson Era\", was a critical formative time for the United States. For some, at least, life style changed as drastically as in the twentieth century. The Railroad turned weeks of arduous travel by stagecoach into days, and days into hours. News reached the frontier, by telegraph, instantly, instead of taking weeks.\nIt was an age of religious revivals and temperance crusades that halved the per capita alcohol consumption. A time of exotic movements: the Anti-masonic party, hundreds of experiments in communal living, and the formation of some very extreme offshoots from the Christian tradition, like the Mormons and the Millerites (who lived by the belief that God would sweep away the old world, \"about 1843 or 1844\"). The 1830s and 40s \"transcendentalist\" movement has left us familiar with the names, at least, of Emerson and Thoreau.\nIt was an era of Abolitionism and Anti-abolitionist riots. 1829 was the year in which David Walker, a free black man in Boston, printed and distributed his bitterly eloquent Appeal, and 1830 was the year of his mysterious death. 1831 was the year in which William Lloyd Garrison launched the most influential Abolitionist newspaper, and the year in which Nat Turner led fellow slaves to slaughter 55 slave owners, and some 200 black men and women (mostly innocent) were slain in revenge. In Cincinnati, sons of slave owners were abolitionized, and a riot of the white citizens made hundreds of blacks flee to Canada (for which many Southerners blamed Garrison and/or Walker).\nIn the midst of it, South Carolina declared she would exempt herself from the federal tariff (import tax) laws. The defeat of this scheme, partly through Jackson's very credible military threats, started a generation of southerners thinking about secession.\nAnother Note On \"The Web\", the Jackson Era, and the Future of Access to Difficult Subject Areas\nThe Web, and any media that evolves from it, can facilitate a new style of reading -- involving a more creative and active mental process, with far more freedom to read, without extensive preparation or guidance, material in which every sentence contains an unfamiliar word or allusion. This will have a dramatic affect on the accessibility of writings of the past, that were not \"written for the ages\", as well as that of difficult areas of technical endeavor.\nSuppose you are reading an 1840s newspaper article or pamphlet, which is full of references to a couple of dozen Kentucky Whig leaders, and half or more of it seems to consist of innuendoes about the character of those people, and tangential references to this or that local event of the 1830s. You may feel you are getting almost none of the real meaning. Unless you are in a good library, near the Dictionary of American Biography, or \"Biographical Sketches of Prominent men of XXX County\", you may just have to stop reading till you can get to such a place. If the newspaper is in one place and the other resources are someplace else, you may just have to take notes, make lists of questions: Who was Mr. A, Mr. B., etc.; take notes on the answers to those questions, run back to the newspaper archive, etc.\nWhat is possible in the very near future is to \"click on\" the names of the mystery people, see who they were and what they did, and in seconds be back to the main text.\nIn any difficult and unfamiliar area of knowledge one may find oneself unable to read anything that was not specifically written for the beginner. So what happens if there is nothing written for the beginner? Suppose when it was written all those obscure points were just obvious to the writer and all the readers? As a computer analyst, I've encountered areas of computer application which evolved through the efforts of a few dozen people, who have since gong on to other jobs, so that one simply cannot read the first line of any document without needing to run to an (often nonexistent) glossary, or spending hours or days trying to learn from someone (if anyone can be found) whose forte is not communication.\nBut back to the early republic: I believe it feasible, at least technically, to put all known printed material from the America of the 1820s and 30s,and important earlier material, into electronic form. The average newspaper put out only 200 pages a year. Yet these writings are excedingly difficult to access, largely due to the limited press runs of anything written before the use of mechanized printing. I.e. the quantity to digitize is small, and the rewards large.\nThe field of History of the Early Republic has a relative paucity of printed material and no legal difficulties about ownership of content. I believe, more Americans would be interested in the subject if it were not so difficult to begin to understand it. Thus an experiment in this area of scholarship could, by revealing the potential of the new media, be a pioneering effort for other areas of knowlege, which will have more difficult legal and economic issues to deal with.\nTo find such a thing as a \"usable past\", or history from which we can learn something applicable to the present, I think we need to focus on periods of organic change, and on the points of origin of that change.\nI have sort of a \"triage\" theory of history. There are dull times, which we needn't examine very closely, and there are \"mad\" times, when all the wisdom in the world wouldn't help things without a huge dollop of luck, and finally formative times, like that in which, simultaneously, colonial culture grew into American culture, and the agrarian way of life grew into the beginnings of our present, technological way of life. Ironically (since the word is so popular among military history buffs), by my \"triage\" theory of history, wars aren't so interesting, though they tend to attract us -- or many of us -- emotionally.\nFor half-baked ruminations on the state of the world, and how to save it, the nature of the (human) beast, self-explorations, and the like, see Essays on Broad Subjects",

        "raw_content": "The anarchist demon alien Nemesis battles the fascist minions of Torquemada\nIn the mid 1980s England was ruled by a right wing conservative government under Margaret Thatcher. Like Cameron\u2019s Tories and New Labour under Blair they espoused the values of liberty and justice while simultaneously suppressing free speech and clamping down on Trade Union rights and minorities. It was the first time in the 20th century that a British government had deliberately divided the population using \u2018Them and Us\u2019 rhetoric. In the wake of the Falklands War Thatcher famously referred to striking miners as \u2018The Enemy Within\u2019, an Orwellian divide and conquer strategy used by every oppressive government since the dawn of time. With the trade unions on the run, and traditional socialist opposition in tatters there emerged a new politics of dissidence. Essentially if you create a Them and Us mentality in society and label Them as \u2018deviants\u2019 and \u2018outsiders\u2019 they, more often than not, will respond with \u2018Wahay\u2019 and then set about exposing the cracks in the dominant world picture by making lots of noise. The new discourses of protest coalesced around feminism, LGBT movements and the politics of race, which moved in to fill the gap left by the disappearance of traditional union-based protest against Thatcherite capitalism and all its ills.\nAt this time the comic 2000AD was at the height of its popularity. 2000AD grew out of an earlier comic called Action, which itself had created controversy with its brutal, anti-authoritarian story lines and sparked a brief moral outrage similar to the Horror Comics panic of the 1950s. The main character in 2000AD was Judge Dredd, but perhaps the strip that most closely captured the spirit of the times in Thatcher\u2019s Britain was Nemesis the Warlock, written by Pat Mills and Kevin O\u2019Neill. The first strip was based directly on the song \u2018Going Underground\u2018 by The Jam, and described the anarchic alien rebel Nemesis being chased through a transit system on a future Earth ruled by the fascist overlord Torquemada and his hooded minions. Subsequent tales made it absolutely clear that the Grand Master Torquemada\u2019s fascist state was the direct outcome of Thatcherism. In one episode the villain channels for previous rulers like himself, including the leader of a British right wing government in the late twentieth century. The essential creed of Torquemada\u2019s state is one of racial and ideological purity, combined with eternal vigilance. His code is summed up by \u2018Be Pure, Be Vigilant, Behave\u2019. By definition all non-human aliens are deviants who must be expunged from the galaxy. Nemesis, the demonic alien, leads the resistance against the forces of Torquemada, a battle that played out through ever-increasingly complex story lines.\nKevin O\u2019Neill\u2019s artwork bordered on the hysterically surreal\nThe main difference between the comic strips in 2000AD and those of, say, Marvel, was the constant current of Pythonesque humour that ran through the stories. Nemesis the Warlock is often very funny, with constant in-jokes and references to the joys of living in 1980s Britain. \u201cHere comes my nineteenth nervous breakdown\u201d says one citizen staring out of the window in the giant planet city of Termight. The style of the series became more extreme and violent as it progressed. Kevin O\u2019Neill really went to town on Torquemada himself, often illustrating him surreal, hysterical detail that added to the overall feverish quality of the strip. The series finished in 1989, with a sequel volume appearing in 1999.\nThe 80s Indie band Shriekback were huge fans of 2000AD, especially Nemesis the Warlock. Their album Oil and Gold alternates between belting post-punk anthems to reptilian evolution, anarchy and decadence, and eerie ballads describing a post-apocalyptic wasteland. \u201cShameful and naked, out there in the great cold outdoors we have to learn these things again\u201d are the lyrics to the haunting track \u2018Faded Flowers\u2019. The single \u2018Nemesis\u2019 is a direct tribute to Nemesis the Warlock, with its bizarre refrain \u201cBig Black Nemesis, Parthenogenesis, no-one move a muscle as the dead come home.\u201d In the video to the song you can see Nemesis the Warlock himself hovering in the shadows at the back.\nYou can view the video for Shriekback\u2019s Nemesis on YouTube\nThe complete Nemesis the Warlock series is available from Rebellion in three volumes, though sadly the first one appears to be out of print.\nPosted in: Classics, Music, Science Fiction / Tagged: 1980s, comic\n\u2190 Kings of Space \u2013 Captain W.

Of course, technology keeps changing, and at some point we need stop calling these things telecom conferences, but for now that label is still sticking.\nOn that note, I've been asked to speak at Telecom 2015 next week, and it's always great to do this in town. It's a fairly new event, and having attended last year, I'm happy to be back, especially as a speaker.\nThe conference runs next Tuesday-Wednesday, and the website provides all the detail for the agenda and registration. I just put my presentation together, and will be speaking on Day 2 at 2:20 pm. My topic is 5 Trends Shaping UC for 2016, and if you're attending, I hope to see you there!",

        "title": "Juan Gonzalez Online - Articles",
        "raw_content": "SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Juan Gonzalez quietly goes about his days, moving from the field to the training room to the shower to home. He doesn't say much, leaving people to read his actions, to scour his face and his body language for some sort of explanation.\n\"It's gonna take time to know Juan,\" says Rudy Jaramillo, Gonzalez's first minor-league manager.\nGonzalez's reputation always precedes him, coloring the blank parts of his personality. You hear he's a prima donna, and shy becomes sullen. You hear he's selfish, and a nagging injury becomes an excuse to rest. There are two sides to everything, and Juan Gonzalez is no exception. There are bits of truth in both.\n\"I'm shy,\" he confirms. \"I don't like to talk too much, but I don't have a problem with anybody.\"\nIt seems sometimes people have a problem with him, though. His outspoken hatred of his time in Detroit, his dispute with the Texas Rangers over whether he was really injured (he was), his propensity to crawl into a cave when things don't go well -- all that has painted a picture. And it ain't pretty.\nSome facts are hard to ignore. For instance: More than 600 times, his name and the word \"spoiled\" have appeared in the same newspaper story. That's only about 100 fewer than Ozzy Osbourne's name with the word \"Satan.\"\nJuan says he's misunderstood. \"You know, it's just life,\" he says. \"I have nothing negative in my heart.\"\nThat's the Juan very few people get to see; the Juan who runs a tab at a Puerto Rico drugstore so no one will be without medicine. The Juan who's a history buff, who loves politics and geography. Juan the joker, believe it or not, who has his hands out to snag a bottle of moisturizer, thrown from across the clubhouse by his buddy Benito Santiago.\nGonzalez makes a beautiful, Dwight Clark-esque catch. Walking away, he raises his arms and yells, in Spanish, \"Touchdown 49ers!\" That's him, too: goofy and silly, feeling comfortable and safe in the Kansas City clubhouse.\nIt's confusing. Cancer or cure: Which is he? That's the question the Royals brain trust asked as a $4.5 million contract was inked during the off-season. It's the question they decided to let Juan answer for himself, with no baggage, no skunks in the jury box.\n\"I always say,\" philosophizes skipper Tony Pe\u00f1a, \"you cannot judge people until you've been around them.\"\nJuan Gonzalez Sr. taught junior-high kids for three decades, and learning was prized in the Gonzalez home. He retired three years ago. Both of Juan's older sisters graduated from college. Like them, Gonzalez is a sponge for information. Just because he isn't talking doesn't mean he isn't listening intently.\n\"He'll tell you about Kerry and Dean and Al Sharpton,\" says Luis Mayoral, Gonzalez's friend and adviser. \"He'll talk to you about what's happening in Iraq, in Afghanistan. He will talk Kennedy with you. He'll talk Nixon and Truman.\"\nWhile his sisters went to college, Juan's path was destined to be different. Scout Sandy Johnson first met him when Gonzalez was a shade over 15 years of age. Juan was skinny, his powerful body still a training table and weight room away, but Johnson could see something. He met with Iris Vazquez, who served him coffee and told him to take care of her son.\nWhen Juan moved to the United States, he knew maybe three words of English. Later, when success came, he paid for classes, the big slugger struggling over simple grammar with a tutor from Chicago. He still has troubles, often working hard with context clues and familiar words to guess a question.\n\"In this life, you're learning something new every day,\" he says, \"and you need to adjust.\"\nMuch of his reputation for sullenness is born here. Of course, some of that reputation is because he is sullen -- and spoiled -- at times. There are the missed medical appointments. Taking a limo from Atlanta to Birmingham, Ala., to see his doctor. Refusing to play in the All-Star game as a reserve. Bits of truth in both, remember?\n\"Juan has always been clean-cut,\" Johnson says. \"He's never been in any trouble. He doesn't drink. He doesn't smoke. He's just an All-American guy with a big heart. He just doesn't talk a lot.\"\nBack in rookie ball, along with fellow no-namers like Sammy Sosa, Juan was simply a Latin kid trying to learn a new culture. Jaramillo noticed something else about Gonzalez, something that would define all that's good and bad about him. Jaramillo meant it as a compliment, but you can see how it also can be considered a curse.\n\"When Juan wants to get it done,\" he says, \"he can get it done.\"\nWhen he wants to. That's been the knock; he turns it on and off, his current state of mind dictating his effort level. During spring training, Gonzalez sat at his locker, nursing a calf injury that would keep him out a week.\n\"I feel better today,\" he says. \"The doctor checked me out, and it's OK. Nothing bad.\"\nHis problems in Detroit were well-documented. In a Sports Illustrated article, the moment he turned against the Tigers and the cavernous Comerica Park was detailed. Tie game, bases jammed, bottom of the ninth, Juan smashed a bomb to the left-center gap. Anywhere else, he's jogging. But in Detroit, it was a highlight-reel out.\nHe checked out. Teammates believed he wasn't hustling.\n\"As sure a Hall of Famer as Gonzalez is, (2000) showed how mental this game can be,\" current Tampa Bay pitcher Todd Jones, a Gonzalez teammate with the Tigers, told the magazine. \"Gonzo was a tormented soul.\"\nJuan protested to the team, asking to get the fence moved in. When they refused, he moved out. Not even a gargantuan offer could keep him in Motown.\n\"If he was money-hungry, he would have taken the 140, 150 million,\" Jaramillo says. \"But he didn't. He wanted to go where he was gonna be happy.\"\nHe tried, and mostly succeeded, in Cleveland. Even there, though, he kept to himself. He didn't venture out, didn't interact with the community. His life was apartment, park, apartment.\nIn Texas, as he had done in the past, Mayoral got a job with the club. He had front-row seats to the Misunderstanding of Juan Gonzalez, just as he had decades ago with his old friend Roberto Clemente.\n\"There are a lot of similarities between Roberto and Juan as far as personality,\" Mayoral says. \"They are both very intense. They are both very proud. Their being introverted throws out the wrong impression. Clemente was not arrogant, and Juan is not arrogant.\"\nThe latest example came a year ago in Texas. Gonzalez was convinced something was wrong with his right calf. He told the team it was torn. They told him it wasn't. General manager John Hart made public comments about Juan's desire, calling him out. Hart didn't return phone messages left by The Star.\nGonzalez would make his way to the park for rehab, still insisting something was wrong.\n\"I would see Juan,\" Mayoral says, \"and I had to pump him up emotionally every day.\"\nFinally, orthopedic surgeon James Andrews in Birmingham confirmed Juan's suspicion. There was a tear. He'd been right. The team had been wrong. In September, a Dallas surgeon repaired the calf, and Juan went home to Puerto Rico to recuperate. Less than six months later, taking a huge pay cut, he signed with the Royals.\nThe last few years have damaged Gonzalez, now in his 16th season. He might not show it, preferring to give everyone a smile and a shoulder shrug, but he knows. He and Mayoral have talked about it, about the importance of him playing like a superstar again. And the limb the Royals have crawled out on with a big-dollar contract hasn't gone unnoticed, either.\n\"Juan knows this is a year when he has to reinvent himself,\" Mayoral says.\nIt seems he is doing just that, but Juan is famous for being cheery during spring. There are some real signs, though.\nTogether with a workout guru, he has devised a personal routine to keep him healthy. He and Carlos Beltran have become inseparable. Juan calls Carlos \"kid,\" which makes Beltran laugh. For the first time in years, Mayoral doesn't have a job with Juan's team.\n\"There are different kinds of people inside the organization,\" Gonzalez says. \"Here is more different. There's a big group of Latinos here, and everybody is more comfortable.\"\nHis career is winding down, and he still has things he wants to accomplish. He wants 500 home runs; he's got 71 to go. He wants 1,500 RBIs; he's got 113 to go.\nThen, there's the biggest honor, one he can't even really talk about. Juan Gonzalez is playing for the Royals, but he's also playing for his legacy. And when Juan wants to get it done, he can get it done.\n\"Juan wants to retire with a great possibility of going into the Hall of Fame,\" Mayoral says. \"He's close.\"",

        "raw_content": "James Wesley Marsters was born on August 20th in Greenville, California, and he grew up in Modesto. His father used to be a minister, and his mother almost became a nun. James has one brother and one sister.\nJames graduated from Davis High School and attended the prestigious Julliard, the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts, and the American Conservatory Theatre. He spent about 10 years doing stage work and performed in various plays in New York, Chicago, and Seattle before finally moving to Los Angeles in order to pursue a career in film and television acting.\nAfter landing a few guest spots on shows like \"Northern Exposure\" and \"Moloney\", his big breakthrough came in 1997 with his appearance as bleached blond British vampire Spike on the WB's hit show \"Buffy the Vampire Slayer\". Originally only hired for a few episodes, Marsters quickly captured the hearts of a legion of fans, and he has been a regular on the show since its fourth season and now has a long-term contract.\nBesides working on \"Buffy\", James Marsters has guest-starred on a number of other tv shows like \"Millennium\", \"Strange Frequency\" and Gene Roddenberry's \"Andromeda\" (the last one to be broadcasted in the US some time in November), and he's also worked on a few movies. Marsters had a small role in the 1999 remake of \"The House On Haunted Hill\" and a major role in an independent movie called \"Winding Roads\". Moreover, he has done some stage work in Los Angeles.\nHis other talents include playing guitar and singing, which he occasionally does in public - at fan conventions, or, more recently, at a club in Santa Monica, California. And it looks like he's planning on pursuing a musical career, because he recently formed a band called GHOST OF THE ROBOT (the current line-up consists of two people: James himself and Charlie DeMars). As for an album, there isn't one yet, but the band are currently recording one, and it's set to release in June 2002.\nJames Marsters currently lives in Los Angeles.\nA cocky and witty vamp from 19th century England, Spike got his former (pre-bloodsucker) name, William the Bloody, because of his bloody awful poetry. In 1880 the sensitive poet was sired by his Vampire lover Drusilla and dubbed Spike because of his penchant for torturing victims with railroad spikes. Spike has killed two Slayers: one lived during the Boxer Rebellion; the second was a punk rock kid in New York whose trench coat has become part of Spike's signature look.\nAs one of the most interesting members of Sunnydale's night stalkers, Spike had an off-and-on romance with Drusilla, who ended up leaving our favorite bad boy the first time for the Chaos Demon and the second time for the Fungus Demon. According to Dru, the Victorian poet-turned-psychotic Slayer killer simply wasn't evil enough for her.\nThe wandering Spike returned to Sunnydale in search of the Gem of Amarra, which would make him invincible. Eventually, Spike began dating Harmony, the former Sunnydale High snob-turned-fang-face. Not surprisingly, that didn't work out, and somewhere along the line, Spike developed an unhealthy interest in more than just Buffy's blood: he wanted her body.\nWhen the Initiative implanted a chip in Spike's head to render him harmless to humans, Spike became more a fringe member of the Scooby Gang than a nemesis. His sharp tongue and seductive attitude were eventually irresistible to Buffy, and they began a torrid affair that was both literally and figuratively destructive. Their subsequent breakup destroyed Spike and drove him to attack Buffy, but she fought back and declared she could never love him.\nDevastated, Spike took off for Africa in search of a powerful demon who could help him give the Slayer what's coming to her. Regardless of what he was expecting, Spike received something no one anticipated: the return of his soul. Now, all bets are off, and who knows what will happen between Spike and the rest of the gang when he returns to Sunnydale?\n\"Angel\" (1999/I) TV Series[Actor ....

        "raw_content": "For the past twelve years I\u2019ve been testing a Brand New Ultimate Stress Buster material that has enabled me to Kiss Goodbye To Stress Forever and that\u2019s guaranteed, when you consider that I was\u2026\nWorking full time in the National Health Service (NHS)\nLife Coaching for various individuals\nConducting School assemblies in primary and secondary schools in my town of Skelmersdale, Lancashire UK\nRunning a community Kids club 2 days a week\nLooking after a family of 3 Children\nWorking as a Minister in a local church\nManaging a Football team of stressful teenagers\nConstantly busy with midweek engagements\nPlus lots of other activities all running at the same time!\nThe Stress eBook material you are about to access gave me the tools, tips and nuggets to eradicate stress from my life completely, even with the multiple activities I had to manage in the week.\nThe reason I\u2019ve decided to make this unbelievable FREE OFFER came about quite by chance due to a completely unconnected event that took place as I received an email from an associate a few weeks ago.\nI was reflecting on all the devastation that was around me in my community. I was trying to make sense of it all and began thinking to myself, \u2018how can I help and make a difference to these children and young people, the ones that are hard to reach\u2019. The ones no one is ready to assist with their situation, even though we all talk and moan about the anti-social behaviour that we see.\nThese are kids who have to live in danger hot spots in a deprived part of Skelmersdale, Lancashire. This is a community classed under the lowest 5% on the National Statistics of Multiple deprivation sufferers, in the whole of the United Kingdom considering housing, unemployment, education, income and health.\nDue to lack of funding, this ONLY REMAINING KIDS CLUB was threatened with closure this year so you can only imagine my despair. I hope you will share with me the fact that something needs to be done and done quickly. This is where YOU come in!\nKids and young people hanging about on street corners when all they are asking for is somewhere to go and something to do\u2026 but we can join together to make this a possibility for these young lives who are our future.\nThe amazing e-Book, Workbook and Audio MP3 package\nThis eBook package includes a motivating audio version in MP3 format that you can download and listen to while you\u2019re on the go. And a workbook that you can use to get the best out of the free e-Book. For this whole package, the children of this deprived community are asking you to support them to the tune of just \u00a37 (one -off) which is just about \u00a32.25 a month.\nHow to Kiss Stress Goodbye Forever will enable anyone to eliminate stress and gain control and freedom without having to pay for expensive counseling and coaching. And without having to take medication to help control your anxiety and frustration. You\u2019ll get over eighty pages of hands on techniques and tools to help you to evaluate your life in a balanced way (body, soul, and spirit).\nBut the most important component in the package is the complete workbook, which walks you through applying this priceless information step-by-step. So you can tackle stress and get rid of it for good.\nIt gives you a step-by-step formula for CREATING YOUR OWN WORLD. It\u2019s different and quite superior to anything else relating to stress that you\u2019ve ever seen. This e-Book has taken a holistic view by looking at body, soul and spirit. However, the big problem is most books on the subject are filled with the medical side of things or just the emotional side. This makes your recovery incomplete and without enough actual real tools for dealing with the whole you (spirit, soul and body).\nYou practically have to be a rocket-scientist or brain surgeon to figure out what some of the so called experts are saying. This easy to use e-Book is different and you will soon find out.\nAND I HONESTLY DON\u2019T WANT A SINGLE PENNY FOR IT!\nEvery penny you donate is going to Hope Kids Club in Skelmersdale, Lancashire England (UK). Hope Kids Club rely ENTIRELY on voluntary donations in order to do school assemblies and operate midweek Kids Club and bearing in mind that their founder has not been paid a penny since 1992, it\u2019s a miracle the club is still running.\nIs it right to simply ignore the pain and anguish of little children and others whilst we just go about our daily lives? Surely we can help, at least in some small way, can\u2019t we? This is why I\u2019ve come to the decision to donate my Stress e-Book package to the Charity in the hope that you will become a HOPE ANGEL and make a small donation too to Hope Kids Club. With your help we can put in place something which will last way beyond just the next decade!\nEVERY SOLITARY PENNY of your donation will go to Hope Kids Club Registered in England and Wales No 1125559\nNO \u2018admin expenses\u2019 | NO \u2018card fees\u2019 | 100% of your donation will be handed straight to Hope Kids Club so they can use your donation to continue their work.",

        "raw_content": "USDA Secretary Announces Infrastructure Improvements for Forest System Trails | KTIC Radio\nUSDA Secretary Announces Infrastructure Improvements for Forest System Trails\nBY USDA | February 16, 2018\nWASHINGTON, Feb. 16, 2018 \u2013 U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue today announced the selection of 15 priority areas to help address the more than $300 million trail maintenance backlog on national forests and grasslands.\nFocused trail work in these areas, bolstered by partners and volunteers, is expected to help address needed infrastructure work so that trails managed by USDA Forest Service can be accessed and safely enjoyed by a wide variety of trails enthusiasts. About 25 percent of agency trails fit those standards while the condition of other trails lag behind.\n\u201cOur nation\u2019s trails are a vital part of the American landscape and rural economies, and these priority areas are a major first step in USDA\u2019s on-the-ground responsibility to make trails better and safer,\u201d Secretary Perdue said. \u201cThe trail maintenance backlog was years in the making with a combination of factors contributing to the problem, including an outdated funding mechanism that routinely borrows money from programs, such as trails, to combat ongoing wildfires.\n\u201cThis borrowing from within the agency interferes with other vital work, including ensuring that our more than 158,000 miles of well-loved trails provide access to public lands, do not harm natural resources, and, most importantly, provide safe passage for our users.\u201d\nThis year the nation celebrates the 50th anniversary of the National Trails Systems Act which established America\u2019s system of national scenic, historic, and recreation trails. A year focused on trails presents a pivotal opportunity for the Forest Service and partners to lead a shift toward a system of sustainable trails that are maintained through even broader shared stewardship.\nThe priority areas focus on trails that meet the requirements of the National Forest System Trails Stewardship Act of 2016(PDF, 224KB), which calls for the designation of up to 15 high priority areas where a lack of maintenance has led to reduced access to public land; increased risk of harm to natural resources; public safety hazards; impassable trails; or increased future trail maintenance costs. The act also requires the Forest Service to \u201csignificantly increase the role of volunteers and partners in trail maintenance\u201d and to aim to double trail maintenance accomplished by volunteers and partners.\nShared stewardship to achieve on-the-ground results has long been core to Forest Service\u2019s approach to trail maintenance, as demonstrated by partner groups such as the Pacific Crest Trail Association and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.\n\u201cOur communities, volunteers and partners know that trails play an important role in the health of local economies and of millions of people nationwide, which means the enormity of our trail maintenance backlog must be adequately addressed now,\u201d said USDA Forest Service Chief Tony Tooke. \u201cThe agency has a commitment to be a good neighbor, recognizing that people and communities rely on these trails to connect with each other and with nature.\u201d\nEach year, more than 84 million people get outside to explore, exercise and play on trails across national forests and grasslands and visits to these places help to generate 143,000 jobs annually through the recreation economy and more than $9 million in visitor spending.\nThe 15 national trail maintenance priority areas encompass large areas of land and each have committed partners to help get the work accomplished. The areas are:\nBob Marshall Wilderness Complex and Adjacent Lands, Montana: The area includes the Bob Marshall, Scapegoat, and Great Bear Wilderness Areas and most of the Hungry Horse, Glacier View, and Swan Lake Ranger Districts on the Flathead National Forest in northwest Montana on both sides of the Continental Divide. There are more than 3,200 miles of trails within the area, including about 1,700 wilderness miles.\nMethow Valley Ranger District, Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, Washington: Methow Valley is a rural recreation-based community surrounded by more than 1.3 million acres of managed by the Forest Service. The area includes trails through the Pasayten and Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness Areas and more than 130 miles of National Pacific Crest and Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trails.\nHells Canyon National Recreation Area and Eagle Cap Wilderness, Idaho and Oregon: This area includes more than 1,200 miles of trail and the deepest river canyon in North America as well as the remote alpine terrain of the Seven Devil\u2019s mountain range. The area also has 350,000 acres in the Eagle Cap Wilderness, the largest in Oregon.\nCentral Idaho Wilderness Complex, Idaho and Montana: The area includes about 9,600 miles of trails through the Frank Church River of No Return; Gospel Hump; most of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness areas; portions of the Payette, Salmon-Challis, Nez Perce and Clearwater national forests; and most of the surrounding lands. The trails inside and outside of wilderness form a network of routes that give access into some of the most remote country in the Lower 48.\nContinental Divide National Scenic Trail, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico: The trail\u2019s 3,100 continuous miles follows the spine of the Rocky Mountains from Mexico to Canada, including more than 1,900 miles of trails across 20 national forests. The trail runs a diverse route with some sections in designated wilderness areas and others running through towns, providing those communities with the opportunity to boost the local economy with tourism dollars.\nWyoming Forest Gateway Communities: Nearly 1,000 miles of trail stretch across the almost 10 million acres of agency-managed lands in Wyoming, which include six national forests and one national grassland. The contribution to the state\u2019s outdoor recreation economy is therefore extremely important in the state.\nNorthern California Wilderness, Marble Mountain and Trinity Alps: There are more than 700 miles of trails through these wilderness areas, which are characterized by very steep mountain terrain in fire-dependent ecosystems that are subject to heavy winter rainfall and/or snow. As such, they are subject to threat from flooding, washout, landslide and other erosion type events which, combined with wildfires, wash out trails and obstruct passage.\nAngeles National Forest, California: The area, which includes nearly 1,000 miles of trails, is immediately adjacent to the greater Los Angeles area where 15 million people live within 90 minutes and more than 3 million visit. Many of those visitors are young people from disadvantaged communities without local parks.\nGreater Prescott Trail System, Arizona: This 300-mile system of trails is a demonstration of work between the Forest Service and multiple partners. The system is integrated with all public lands at the federal, state and local level to generate a community-based trail system.\nSedona Red Rock Ranger District Trail System, Coconino National Forest, Arizona: About 400 miles of trail provide a wide diversity of experiences with year-round trail opportunities, including world-class mountain biking in cooler months and streamside hiking in the heat of the summer.\nColorado Fourteeners: Each year, hundreds of thousands of hikers trek along over 200 miles of trail to access Colorado\u2019s mountains that are higher than 14,000 feet. The Forest Service manages 48 of the 54 fourteeners, as they are commonly called.\nSuperior National Forest, Minnesota: The more than 2,300 miles of trail on this forest have faced many catastrophic events, including large fires and a major wind storm downed millions of trees in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in 1999. A similar storm in 2016 reached winds up to 85 mph and toppled trees on several thousand acres and made the western 13 miles of Kekekabic Trail impassible.\nWhite Mountain National Forest Partner Complex, Maine and New Hampshire: Approximately 600 miles of non-motorized trails are maintained by partners. Another 600 miles of motorized snowmobile trails are adopted and maintained by several clubs. Much of that work centers on providing safe public access to the mountain and valleys of New Hampshire and Maine.\nSouthern Appalachians Capacity Enhancement Model, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia: The more than 6,300 miles of trails in this sub region include some of the most heavily used trails in the country yet only 28 percent meet or exceed agency standards. The work required to bring these trails to standard will require every tool available from partner and volunteer skills to contracts with professional trail builders.\nIditarod National Historic Trail Southern Trek, Alaska: In southcentral Alaska, the Southern Trek is in close proximity to more than half the state\u2019s population and connects with one of the most heavily traveled highways in the state. The Chugach National Forest and partners are restoring and developing more than 180 miles of the trail system, connecting the communities of Seward, Moose Pass, Whittier, and Girdwood.\nFor more information about the USDA Forest Service, visit www.fs.fed.us.",

The CMA Awards co-hosts and longtime friends often tease each other, and recently it was Underwood who got the brunt of the joke.\nWhen visiting Paisley at his home this week (as the two country artists prepare for their 10th year co-hosting the awards show together), Underwood shared a photo of her lunch, as provided by Paisley.\n\"Meeting at @bradpaisley's place for the upcoming #CMAAwards ... he had lunch brought in and wanted to make sure I knew which one was mine,\" she explains with a photo of a boxed lunch labeled 'Weirdo Vegan.'\n\"Both words are an accurate description,\" she confirms.\nUnderwood labels herself as a vegetarian, but tries her best to eat vegan most days. However, cheese is hard to resist. \"I\u2019ll have spells where I have no dairy, and I\u2019m good, I\u2019m great, I feel good,\" she admits to Buzzfeed. \"But it makes me feel bad, too. I don\u2019t know why I do it, but that\u2019s kind of my Kryptonite.\"\nIn the same interview, Underwood says that the hardest part of her diet often is the struggle in resisting the leftovers on her son's plate. \u201cI feel like one of my biggest problems is not making myself eat his food he doesn\u2019t eat,\u201d she says. \u201cI hate wasting food. If I\u2019m going to put it on my plate, I\u2019m going to eat it all. I make enough just for us and I don\u2019t ever want to waste it. I\u2019ll eat leftovers for a week because I hate wasting food.\"\nPaisley and Underwood will have a chance to take jabs at each other next month when they unite to co-host the CMA Awards for the tenth year in a row. The 2017 CMA Awards air on Nov. 8 on ABC.\nSource: Brad Paisley Can\u2019t Stop Picking on \u2018Weirdo Vegan\u2019 Carrie Underwood",

Mayor Mike Huether says the first phase will be crucial for planning.\n\u201cI think you\u2019re going to find that over the next six to eight months, there will be decisions made in terms of whether we put a shovel in the ground in that very expensive piece of ten acres. We have six groups that are very interested in investing in that ten acres.\u201d\nWith only 14 months left in office, Huether would love to get things started before his term ends, but his timetable is secondary to the bigger picture.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a goal of mine to at least have one shovel in the ground before I\u2019m done. At the same time if we have to go really slow in doing it, that\u2019s okay. It\u2019s a 200-year project. This is going to impact Sioux Falls like no other investment we\u2019ve ever made before, I think, in our city\u2019s history.\u201d\nBefore any development occurs, tracks need to be removed which should take place either late this year or in early 2018.\nTwo sets of tracks will remain on the east side of the project as rail traffic will continue to have a path through downtown Sioux Falls.\nSource: Mayor Mike Huether Conducting Downtown Railyard Transition",

We firmly believe that It takes bold people, bold action and bold investment to transform the future and we are those people. Therefore, the KZN Growth Fund represents our commitment to growth and seeing the province move forward.\nIn our pursuit of growth we leverage off our influence in the province, using our insight and knowledge to ensure that we do not compromise our integrity and always deliver in a fast, flexible and agile manner that really speaks to the core values of our brand. In this way we are growing KwaZulu-Natal and showing the world what we are capable of.\nHistory of KGFT\nThe KwaZulu-Natal Growth Fund Trust (KGFT \u2013 referred herein as the \u201cTrust\u201d) was set up in 2008 as an initiative of the KZN Government\u2019s Department of Economic Development,Tourism and Environmental Affairs.\nThe KwaZulu-Natal Growth Fund Trust (KGFT \u2013 referred herein as the \u201cTrust\u201d) was set up in 2008 as an initiative of the KZN Government\u2019s Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (EDTEA) to administer the KZN Growth Fund (\u201cKGF Debt Fund 1\u201d). The Fund was set up as a 15 year R1,087.5bn closed debt fund with a commitment period of 6 years, structured as a unique public-private partnership between the EDTEA (R362,5m), Standard Bank of South Africa (SBSA \u2013 R200m), Infrastructure Finance Corporation (INCA \u2013 R300m) and the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA \u2013 R225m). The commitment period ended in August 2015. KGF Debt Fund 1, which became operational in 2009, financed medium to large scale sustainable private sector projects throughout the KwaZulu-Natal (\u201cKZN\u201d) province. The fund size reduced to R787.5m due to the exit of INCA from the fund in November 2013 because of a change in its business model. This initiative was a first in South Africa, aimed at creating sustainable economic development, job creation, broad based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE) and reducing inequality in KZN.\nThe KGF Debt Fund 1 was a closed debt fund and in order to give effect to new funds and products (restricted under KGF Debt Fund 1), the Trust unencumbered its capital from the existing security in the KGF Debt Fund 1 by prepayment of the existing exposures and cancellation of all debt facilities on 31 March 2015. The Trust now caters for both a debt and an equity fund and is able to bring on board additional investors to participate in either.\nThe evolution of KGFT over time has been characterised by a number of significant events that happened from the date of inception in 2009 to date, both from the governance structure and the funding model. Figure 1.1 below portrays a diagrammatic view of these events.\n1.1: Evolution if KGFT\nA brief explanation of the various periods of the evolution of the KGFT is presented below:\n2009/10 \u2013 2013/14 period:\nKZN Growth Fund Trust (KGFT) was established in 2008 by KZN Provincial Government and became operational in 2009;\nIt was structured as a closed project finance debt fund with a 15 year life span until 2024; and\nIt was managed by the KZN Growth Fund Managers (Soc) Ltd (KGFM) \u2013 a subsidiary of Ithala Development Finance Corporation until March 2014.\nRestructured into a unitary governance structure from 1 April 2014;\nKGFT took over the operations of the KGFM through a sale of business agreement;\nMEC for EDTEA approved the Evolution Strategy and the setting up of an Equity Fund in February 2015.\nImplemented the Evolution Strategy and a more attractive funding model.\nUnencumbered the assets of the Trust by prepaying the lenders and closed on Debt Fund 1 that was within a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement; and\nSet up Debt Fund 2, a new Equity Fund and a Guarantee Fund (for implementation in 2016/17).\nSignificant progress in the implementation of the evolution strategy has been made in the 2015/16 financial year.\nThe KZN Growth Fund is an initiative of the Provincial Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (DEDTEA)\nThe KZN Growth Fund is an initiative of the Provincial Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (EDTEA) and as such the department is responsible for the oversight of the Fund and the Fund is legally bound to submit performance reports to the department and ensure that it complies with the departmental mandate.\nInternally, the Growth Fund is governed by the Board of Trustees, who oversee the function of the trust and ensure that it is being run in line with good corporate governance as well as the economic and social mandate outlined by EDTEA. The Board of Trustees has three committees, namely Audit & Risk Committee (ARC), Human Resource Committee (HRC) and Investment Committee(IC).\nThe Trust is established in terms of a Trust Deed which is legally governed by the Trust Property Control Act. The entity is neither a Company nor a listed Public Entity in terms of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA). However, the Board of Trustees have elected to comply with the PFMA as a schedule 3D Public Entity (government business enterprise) as well as to apply the King Report on Corporate Governance (King III) in as far as it is practical to do so.\nThe Acts of Parliament that govern the operations of the KZN Growth Fund:\nTrust Property Control Act, 1988;\nPublic Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act 1/1999);\nPreferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (Act 5/2000);\nPrevailing Treasury Regulations, dated 15 March 2005; and\nKing Report on Corporate Governance (King III)\nThe KZN Growth Fund strategies and policies are aligned to, among others:\nNational Development Plan (NDP)\nProvincial Growth and Development Strategy (PGDS)\nIndustrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) II\nProvincial Spatial and Economic Development Strategy (PSEDS)\nNew Growth Path (NGP)\nOther Partner Agencies\nOur Alignment to EDTEA\nThe KZN Growth Fund falls under the Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (EDTEA) and we are aligned to their mandate of stimulating economic and social growth in the province.",

        "raw_content": "Politics BY Jesse Heasman20th March 2016\nSeconds after Iain Duncan Smith\u2019s resignation as Secretary of State for Department of Work and Pensions, Twitter was alive as ever with angry remarks. The victim of the vitriol this time? IDS and the Tory approach to welfare.\nTwo consecutive tweets I stumbled upon were particularly fun. Dick Mackintosh helpfully enlightened our foreign friends: \u2018If you\u2019re not from Britain and you are wondering who Iain Duncan Smith is .. he\u2019s Britain\u2019s most notorious serial killer #IainDuncanSmith\u2019.\nAnd \u2018smash shaky\u2019 (who has clearly lost his computer\u2019s shift, full stop and comma keys) was even more insightful: \u2018iain duncan smith thinks these cuts are too far and he literally cuts homeless ppl up and blends them into smoothies to maintain immortality\u2019.\nNow these are two tweets from a couple of trolls in a country of 64 million people. But they branch from a widely held view: The Tories are against the poor and vulnerable in society.\nIs there any substance to this claim? Well, I think we could list Tory achievements in areas of equality, welfare, employment and wage growth in the last 5 years and end the article here. But I don\u2019t want to assess the success of Tory welfare policy, compare it to Labour\u2019s track record, and get bogged down in the nitty-gritty of \u2018whose welfare formula wins\u2019. These tactics don\u2019t usually work well on \u2018smash shaky\u2019-types, and is not the issue I want to dwell on.\nWhat I want to do is assess what is behind the divergence in welfare policy between Labour and the Tories. Is it, as so many think, that one cares for those at the bottom of society, and the other cares for those at the top? Is welfare provision a right and necessary public service in one camp or a budget burden in the other?\nI think \u2018smash shaky\u2019 is too caught up on the methods for achieving the Tories\u2019 vision for a better society than the actual results. He sees cuts and reforms, presumes they are merely cost reduction exercises, and can therefore jovially claim IDS blends homeless people \u2018into smoothies to maintain immortality\u2019.\nWhat he might not know is that in 2004 IDS set up the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ). The CSJ was founded to explore real ways in which British society can be transformed, helping people trapped on benefits, those locked out of work, communities marred by drug and alcohol addiction, and people caught in debt and criminality. The CSJ works closely with the Government and the DWP, informing and advising welfare reforms for the good of society. Importantly, recent welfare reforms the Government have been pursuing did not come from George Osborne the cuts-King, but were created within the confines of a think-tank working to give everyone the opportunity to reach their full potential.\nYou may not agree with these reforms and their ability to help the poor and vulnerable, but that doesn\u2019t mean you have the reform-makers sussed out. IDS, the DWP and the Tories are not against the worst-off. The Tories and Labour both want a better society, the means to the ends might vary, but the goal is the same.\nAs the finalists of the 2012 London Olympics 100m sprint psyched themselves up for the race, their goal was the same \u2013 get to the finish line first. But that doesn\u2019t mean their preparations or training were identical. After winning, we heard that Usain Bolt had eaten a McDonald\u2019s for breakfast. I\u2019m sure many would argue he\u2019d have been better off eating quinoa and chia seeds \u2013 but he still won.\nThe point is that the Tories and Labour have the same goal when it comes to governance; to better peoples lives. But their methods differ. When you view it like this, you can\u2019t slander the Tories, because \u2013 and if you asked MPs they would be very passionate about this \u2013 they genuinely believe their methods and reforms will help people the most. Beyond welfare it\u2019s still true. The post-credit crunch cuts across departments have had massive impacts, but is it kinder to cut the deficit now than burden future generations with debt? Again, both the Tories and Labour differ on deficit reduction and borrowing, but they want the same thing \u2013 a happy and prosperous nation.\nAt this stage it is important to recognise that despite their noble aspirations both parties often get it very wrong. They often spend too little or too much on totally the wrong things. This is why we have an Opposition, why we have the Lords \u2013 why we vote altogether. IDS of all people knew this, and his resignation was an indication that he thought the goal of a better society for all had been lost. As he finished his resignation letter, \u2018I hope as the government goes forward you can look again, however, at the balance of the cuts you have insisted upon and wonder if enough has been done to ensure \u201cwe are all in this together\u201d\u2019.\nThanks to backbenchers who haven\u2019t lost sight of the end goal, the Tories have looked again, and it seems that the disability benefit cuts will be reversed. This is good news of course, and an area of welfare in which both parties should agree on \u2013 but the fact remains that they won\u2019t always agree on policy, because there are many paths to the same end. And to claim that IDS and the Tories are immoral because they\u2019ve chosen to go down one route is self-righteous fiction.\nPreviousPetition: iPhone headphone jack \u2013 Jesse Heasman\nNextMaking a Murderer \u2013 a guilty pleasure to feel guilty about? \u2013 Rhian Coekin",

        "raw_content": "With \u201cHigh Flying Bird\u201d, director Steven Soderbergh delves into the world of professional basketball at a time where the entertainment aspect of one of the world\u2019s most popular sports leagues unceremoniously comes to a grinding halt. With the advent of collective bargaining and the game\u2019s most prominent athletes looking for a larger cut from the owners, the expiration of such contracts almost always means the threat of a lock out, the last of which occurred in 2011, leaving the NBA with a shortened 66 game season. But aside from the wrangling back and forth between the attorneys representing the player\u2019s association and the owners, what actually goes on behind the scenes? How does the situation effect rookies coming into the league? And with a sudden loss of their primary income stream, how do players and their agents survive?\nWorking from a script by Tarell Alvin McCraney (\u201cMoonlight\u201d), Soderbergh again pushes the limits of that electronic device we all have in our pockets and shoots the entire film on an iPhone. Citing the ability to both put a camera anywhere he needs it at a moments notice, as well as the ability to see exactly what he\u2019s shot before moving on to the next, Soderbergh utilizes the camera to squeeze into tight spaces in vehicles, as well as for a number of impressive wide angle shots that take full advantage of the story\u2019s New York setting. He also has a game cast in front of him who seem to be oblivious to the fact he\u2019s using a smart phone.\nIn the opening scene, we begin to understand the tenuous situation a work stoppage can cause within the various levels of what is a massive corporate machine. Ray Burke (Andre Holland) is a sports agent who is currently overseeing the affairs of the NBA\u2019s number one draft pick, Erick Scott (Melvin Gregg), as the two meet for lunch to discuss the ramifications of a high interest loan Erick recently took out in order to fund his new lifestyle while waiting for his rookie contract to kick in. The issue here is the fact this kid was drafted, but has yet to receive a dime due to the work stoppage. This also means Ray doesn\u2019t receive his commission either, a notion that becomes painfully real when his corporate card is denied when he attempts to pay for lunch. Ray implores Erick to be patient, wait it out, and to not do anything stupid that would jeopardize his ability to maximize his star power when the lock out ends. Above all, he implores the youngster to understand the league is a business first.\nThere is also chaos within the management company Ray works for. His boss, David (Zachary Quinto), has been told to freeze all expense accounts, and the company is being reorganized to benefit from other revenue streams while the NBA and the players association continue to haggle over money. It\u2019s clear there are many more people involved in all of this who depend on the NBA operating at a peak performance level than just the players and owners. And Ray\u2019s job seems to be on the line as well, given his clients are all NBA stars, meaning he is not bringing in any business. The first casualty of this is the transfer of his long time assistant, Sam (Zazie Beetz), to another department, which leaves him mulling his next move.\nSoderbergh takes a hard look at these issues by asking some very serious questions about the arrangement between owners and players. In doing so, he utilizes a character named Spence (Bill Duke), who runs a basketball program at a community center and was a long time NBA player himself. The questions raised include the notion of white team owners who unfairly utilize the players in a mostly black league for their own monetary gain, and do so with unprecedented control over the players via clearly spelled out restrictions in their contracts, as well as the collective bargaining agreement. Essentially what he\u2019s saying is players not only must give up the rights to their likeness, but they are limited in their ability to sell themselves as a brand. In essence, the argument is the player\u2019s star power on and off the court benefit the NBA, rather than benefiting the player.\nAll of this plays out around a publicity stunt set up by Ray, as the various entities involved haggle over percentages and who gets the bigger slice of the pie with revenues increasing after lucrative broadcast deals. Back and forth between the player\u2019s association and the owners is depicted through scenes where the union\u2019s attorney, Myra (Sonja Sohn), debates with the owner\u2019s representative, David Seton (Kyle MacLachlan), as the two seem unlikely to bend and work towards an agreement. Meanwhile, the players are out of work and not being paid, which leads to them looking for other means to support themselves by using their basketball talents, something the league does not want to see.\nNow the fact \u201cHigh Flying Bird\u201d is shot on an iPhone shouldn\u2019t indicate the film lacks in standard production value. It is in fact a marvel artistically with seemingly every shot carefully composed in the exact same way a film would be had it been shot with a high end camera. And the story succeeds in its quest to ask hard questions about a system that may very well be rigged to ensure every NBA franchise continues to rise exponentially in value, even if it means continuing to hold the players back from creating their own businesses based on their own star power. In an interesting and quite effective twist, Soderbergh includes documentary style interviews with real life NBA players Karl-Anthony Towns, Donovan Mitchell, and Reggie Jackson who speak about their experiences as rookies in the league. Their words play meaningfully into the story as we see Erick Scott struggle with his place in all of this when his expectations of the beginning of his career are reduced to just sitting around and waiting while the wealthy owners of the league ensure their bottom line remains the ultimate priority. GRADE: B+\nIt was only a matter of time. A no brainer if you will. Maybe it took a little longer than once thought, but the script has been flipped on Nancy Meyer\u2019s 2000 hit comedy \u201cWhat Women Want\u201d, bringing a female into Mel Gibson\u2019s role and thus giving her the ability to hear what men are thinking internally. And don\u2019t tell Taraji P. Henson she\u2019s being utilized here to fill someone else\u2019s shoes, as she absolutely owns this role in every way, perhaps even making Gibson\u2019s performance a distant memory in the process. Working from script by Tina Gordon, Peter Huyck, and Alex Gregory, director Adam Shankman changes much of the dynamic from the original, but still places Henson in a position of secondary power, though she is aiming for a big promotion, amongst a male dominated workplace she struggles to get along with.\nStrangely enough, this is the third time in just under a year where a female lead character hits her head hard enough to create some kind of otherworldly experience meant as social commentary. In addition to Henson\u2019s Ali Davis, who after an interesting session with a psychic ends up gaining her ability to hear men\u2019s thoughts when she abruptly smashes her head on a table while dancing at a nightclub, there was Amy Schumer hitting her's during a cycling class in \u201cI Feel Pretty\u201d, and it appears Rebel Wilson will do something similar in the upcoming \u201cIsn\u2019t It Romantic\u201d. Nonetheless, the story moves along with a consistent and welcome comedic beat set to Henson\u2019s ability to deliver sharp, witty dialogue accompanied by raucous physical comedy.\nAli Davis (Henson) is a sports agent working for a sports management firm comprised of mostly male counterparts. And while she boasts an impressive client list of several notable female olympic athletes, she has been continually passed over in becoming a partner due to the lack of signing true superstar talent within the big four professional sports leagues. In an opening scene, she still believes she is about to achieve her goal in a board room ceremony where the next partner is about to be named. The company boss, Nick (Brian Bosworth), tosses a ceremonial football to the new partner and with Ali thinking its her, she catches the ball, only to be told it was directed at the guy sitting next to her.\nAfter the latest setback in her career, she is told if she could get the top college basketball prospect in the country, Jamal Barry (Shane Paul McGhie), to sign with her and the company, it would potentially guarantee she becomes a partner. Flanked by her assistant, Brandon (Josh Brener, Big Head from HBO\u2019s \u201cSilicon Valley\u201d doing his best Gary impersonation from \u201cVeep\u201d), the duo sets out to meet Jamal and his flamboyant Lavar Ball caricature of a father Joe \u201cDolla\u201d Barry (Tracy Morgan) during a photo shoot that doesn\u2019t go as planned, leaving Ali to wonder what it takes to land a client of this stature. Of course, we the audience have an idea since it\u2019s shortly thereafter Ali is suddenly gifted with a power that proves to be quite handy within these male ego infused scenarios.\nThere are a number of hilarious bits Shankman comes up with, each of which utilize cameo appearances from several notable sports stars who are no stranger to captivating audiences with their larger than life personas. An all male poker game Ali finds herself in the middle of includes Joe Barry, but also Shaquille O\u2019Neal, Mark Cuban, and Grant Hill. And with her new found ability to hear each of their ongoing thoughts, it doesn\u2019t prove difficult to clean house if she chooses, but she also sees an opportunity. Add to this a budding love interest in Will (Aldis Hodge), and his very cute 6 year old son, Ben (Auston Jon Moore), who owns the line of the movie with his \u201cWelcome to Wakanda\u201d while utilizing Ali\u2019s underwear as a mask, and you have the recipe for an all out comedy sure to end with the usual sentimental touches.\nThough all of this leads to a formulaic narrative, the film earns its laughs from a very game cast who no doubt gave their all in order to ensure \u201cWhat Men Want\u201d would stand tall next to its predecessor. And while Henson clearly carries the film, she works well along side Brener as he makes a welcome transition from the small to big screen. Meanwhile, Morgan is absolutely hilarious with his helicopter dad impersonation and clearly makes a gargantuan effort to steal every scene he appears in. The only curious bit of casting is that of Shane Paul McGhie as a basketball player being sold as the next phenom and number one pick in the NBA draft. Problem is, he doesn\u2019t seem to have the kind of over the top skills necessary to sell himself as a high level player (one scene in particular between him and Henson on an outdoor court did not exude someone with the kind of talent to play in the NBA). This would\u2019ve been a great opportunity to cast an actual NBA player in the role, but in reality, the film isn\u2019t about him so they get away with it.\nOf course, neither this film nor the Mel Gibson/Helen Hunt version really ever answer the question both titles ask. And that\u2019s because there is no answer. After all these years, we have yet to really figure each other out. But it would be cool (and quite helpful) to finally know exactly what you\u2019re thinking. GRADE: B-\nWriter/ Director Henry Dunham\u2019s feature debut, \u201cThe Standoff at Sparrow Creek\u201d, is a stunning and brilliant achievement worthy of being touted as the first great film of 2019. And while it is certain there will be many more, it would be a massive disservice to forget the film when best of lists are being compiled at the end of the year. Working with a budget of less then $500K, the film takes place within the claustrophobic confines of a large lumber warehouse and is populated with a cast comprised of seasoned veteran character actors that most casual movie watchers likely won\u2019t recognize. But the tension Dunham and this group manage to create, working from a fantastic script by Dunham as well, rivals the very best thrillers of the past decade, while also managing to create several unique twists of its own.\nThe easy comparison here would be Tarantino\u2019s 1991 classic \u201cReservoir Dogs\u201d, but look deeper and you\u2019re likely to find similarities within another genre entirely. Essentially, what Dunham has created, with his men trapped in small spaces scenario, is something more akin to Ridley Scott\u2019s \u201cAlien\u201d or John Carpenter\u2019s \u201cThe Thing\u201d, but without the monster. Although with these characters, many of them certainly could qualify for such a distinction. Nearly every scene is lit with a semi bright key light illuminating the actor\u2019s faces from only one direction, leaving the rest of their silhouette shrouded in darkness. People can appear and you didn\u2019t know they were there, while others just walk away mid conversation without the audience knowing. All of this plays to important aspects of a plot torn directly out of today\u2019s headlines.\nWhen we first meet Gannon (James Badge Dale), he\u2019s deep in the woods lying hidden within some brush and concealed behind a tree. With a rifle and scope, he has a deer in his sights. We don\u2019t see him pull the trigger, but the next shot indicates he bagged his prey, as we catch up with him at his seemingly middle of nowhere trailer. As he\u2019s eating dinner alone, he hears automatic gunfire repeating in the distance. Soon after, he gets a call to meet at the Sparrow Creek lumber yard from the leader of the militia he belongs to. The message is one of urgency.\nGannon is an ex-cop who now toils away with a small militia in Northern Michigan. I found this interesting since a memorable segment in Michael Moore\u2019s \u201cBowling for Columbine\u201d features interviews with a couple of these sloppy out of shape whack jobs who spend their days training like soldiers just in case they may need to stop the government from taking away their arms, or something like that. And in that exact vein we have a group of seedy looking individuals show up at the lumber warehouse to find out what has happened.\nOff camera, a lone gunman has committed a mass shooting at a police funeral. The murderous monster was said to have fired hundreds of rounds with an assault rifle, and employed the use of IEDs hidden amongst the grave stones in order to maximize casualties which is said to have been nearly everyone attending the service. Through listening to the police radio, the group realizes that the local militias are the prime suspects, and Ford (Chris Mulkey), the group\u2019s leader, has called a meeting to find out if the suspect is among them. Complicating matters is the fact one of the AR-15 assault rifles from the militia\u2019s armory is missing, and everyone who has the code to that armory is now in the room.\nBecause of his background as a cop, Ford charges Gannon with interrogating the prime suspects in the group, who are made up of confessed murderers, former members of the Aryan Nation, and prototypical anti social types who scream serial killer just by their mere presence. If you\u2019re familiar with police interrogation techniques, the dialogue in these scenes will be quite intriguing to you, as you\u2019ll right away pick up on Gannon\u2019s methods in an effort to gain confessions from the militia\u2019s most obvious suspects. Beyond this, the group finds themselves unable to leave the lumber yard, as it is now being reported via police radio that several militias have completed coordinated attacks throughout the United States. The mistrust then begins to brew within, as each begins to wonder what the other knows and isn\u2019t telling them.\nDunham\u2019s team proves top notch with outstanding work from Director of Photography Jackson Hunt, Production Designer Adam Dietrich, and Editor Josh Ethier, creating a dark, gritty, atmosphere for the actors to thrive in. And all of this is accomplished without a single note of musical score to support it. When you think about the limited indie budget, as well as the shooting schedule said to have been only 18 days, it\u2019s astounding what the filmmakers were able to create with such limited resources.\nPerhaps even more compelling is the narrative being centered around a mass shooting and the use of an assault rifle equipped with a bump stock serving as the primary means of the attack, particularly given the many recent events in our country. A plot point made even more shocking when we begin to realize the make up of this militia, as it features several members who would qualify as having the background and personality traits of a poster child for a mass murderer. At a certain point in the film, you\u2019d likely believe it could have been any one of them. A testament to the superb performances by the supporting cast that includes Brian Geraghty (\u201cThe Hurt Locker\u201d), Patrick Fischler (\u201cMad Men\u201d), Happy Anderson (\u201cBright\u201d), Robert Aramayo (\u201cNocturnal Animals\u201d, \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d) , and Gene Jones (\u201cThe Hateful Eight\u201d). As for Dunham, \u201cThe Standoff at Sparrow Creek\u201d announces his successful arrival into feature filmmaking and assures his growing audience will no doubt be looking forward to his next project. GRADE: A\n\u201cSerenity\u201d is one of those films that absolutely has to be seen in order to be believed. There is no describing it, unless completely giving away its secrets is an option, but even then words allowing for a proper portrayal of the plot and the characters in the story would be hard to come by. Because the film will make little noise at the box office, most will have to wait until it becomes available on digital platforms to determine for themselves if the film is actually any good or not. Writer/director Steven Knight has weaved together a film so hokey, it\u2019s difficult to take it seriously. A fact that undermines what lies beneath the surface where Knight changes the laws of film narrative to suit his strange third act.\nWhatever trailer house was hired to create the advertising for \u201cSerenity\u201d must\u2019ve only been given scenes from the first half of the film. What audiences will expect to see is not what\u2019s delivered. An all star cast featuring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Diane Lane, and Jason Clarke populate a secluded tropical island called Plymouth where we are meant to believe a twisted murder for hire plot is about to become a reality. Baker Dill (McConaughey), is a local boat captain who take tourists out to sea on fishing excursions, while also continually attempting to hook a rather large tuna that thus far has remained elusive. His first mate, Duke (Djimon Hounsou), functions as a sort of moral compass when Baker becomes impulsive towards catching this fish he has dubbed \u201cJustice\u201d, particularly when they have paying customers on board.\nThe set up here will strike you as odd from the very first scenes. Everything that happens seems convenient and created for purposes that may be revealed later. Each day when Baker returns from the sea, a woman named Constance (Diane Lane), who lives in a cottage overlooking the dock, opens the shutters of her window and looks upon the returning fisherman, not saying a word, but beckoning him to join her as we learn he does each and every time. And after their time in the sack, both exchange some of the most cheesy dialogue you will ever hear, as if the screenwriter was a child and doesn\u2019t have any idea of what exactly he is writing about when it comes to adult situations. This leads to similarly odd exchanges between Baker and patrons of the island\u2019s only bar, as his life seems to be a proverbial daily repeat with nothing but that big fish in his mind.\nThat is until Karen (Anne Hathaway), his ex wife, arrives on the island with an offer and a desperate plea for help. Per her words, we are meant to believe she has arrived several days early before her husband, Frank (Jason Clarke), where he is expecting to go on a fishing excursion she has booked for him. But Karen\u2019s motives are, of course, geared to something else entirely. Frank abuses her, as well as the son Baker and Karen have in common, which leads to her bringing an offer to Baker she believes he can\u2019t refuse. Take her unknowing abusive husband on the fishing excursion, get him drunk, and then send him overboard. In exchange? Ten million dollars of dirty money, courtesy of Frank\u2019s illegal business exploits. But Baker wants nothing to do with her or the situation, leaving Karen to deal with Frank\u2019s arrival and the expectation he will be going on a fishing trip which Karen claims she spent hours on the internet searching for.\nIf the film were to go on from here, you would think this was a classic Femme Fatale story cooked up by the likes of Hitchcock or DePalma, but then Knight changes the game significantly, going somewhere you likely will not predict. For their part, the actors really seem to be into the material with McConaughey going full bore, as he willingly and assuredly belts out his lines with every ounce of emotional grit he can muster. And while Anne Hathaway isn\u2019t as effective with what she is given to work with, Jason Clarke has a mischievously good time playing the bad guy, yucking it up with his ultra-arrogant persona as a man who is used getting exactly what he wants when he wants it. Some of the back and forth between Baker and Frank is actually quite good, given the fact Frank is being set up and he\u2019s too dumb to realize it.\nBut where does all of this end up? To make sense of Knight\u2019s endgame is practically impossible. And the way he gets there makes it seem as though he believes one upping the audience is imperative, even though the pay off doesn\u2019t pack the emotional punch I think he was going for. Nonetheless, \u201cSerenity\u201d could end up being one of those films where once the masses see it, there could be a good bit of water cooler talk debating the narrative choices made by Knight and whether or not they should be allowed in a film. It\u2019s kinda of like something staring right at you in the face, while it consistently tells itself \u201cI\u2019m invisible\u201d. That\u2019s what it\u2019s like to watch the film. It\u2019s all so obvious where it\u2019s going, lessening the impact of the reveal once we get there. GRADE: C\nAfter demonstrating so much promise with recent hits such as \u201cThe Visit\u201d (2015) and \u201cSplit\u201d (2017), M. Night Shyamalan regresses back to the days of his lesser work like \u201cAfter Earth\u201d (2013) with \u201cGlass\u201d, a sequel to his 2000 film \u201cUnbreakable\u201d and the third film in a trilogy which also includes the aforementioned \u201cSplit\u201d. In all fairness, Shyamalan, like many of his contemporaries, is often victimized by his own success. His breakout hit, 1999\u2019s \u201cThe Sixth Sense\u201d, established the director as a phenom and also attached clear expectations of which few filmmakers could possibly meet. Sure, others such as James Cameron and Quentin Tarantino have managed to capture lightning in a bottle, churning out several notable classics after their debut features created lofty standards for themselves. But Shyamalan has struggled to do the same, and critics have regularly ravaged his offerings as having never measured up to what he had already proven capable of. A one hit wonder if you will.\nComing on the heels of \u201cThe Sixth Sense\u201d, even \u201cUnbreakable\u201d was not the sophomore effort audiences were expecting, though the film over the past nineteen years has been reexamined and is how thought to be Shyamalan\u2019s best work. The final scene in \u201cSplit\u201d gave way to something many of his fans had been clamoring for, as it was revealed the film was a sequel to \u201cUnbreakable\u201d, taking place in the same world as Bruce Willis\u2019 would be superhero David Dunn and his nemesis and criminal mastermind Elijah Price played by Samuel L. Jackson. News which then brought forth a number of interesting possibilities where David would face off against The Beast, as a horrified Philadelphia looked on.\nOne of the issues Shyamalan faces with each film he makes is the built in expectation of that \u201cgotcha\u201d moment that has become his hallmark ever since we all were left dumbfounded when we finally realized Bruce Willis was a ghost. That need to fool the audience in every film seems to have pigeon holed Shyamalan into coming up with new ways to continually pull off the same trick, regardless of the subject matter he\u2019s exploring. As you view \u201cGlass\u201d and the narrative moves into the third act, it\u2019s easy to see this is exactly where the film\u2019s downfall is. Without revealing what Shyamalan has concocted for his latest trick, I will say it is neither surprising, nor effective, but rather a real let down that will leave you wondering what the significance is and how it has anything to do with what you just saw.\n\u201cGlass\u201d begins with a reintroduction of David Dunn (Bruce Willis) and his now grown son, Joseph (Spencer Treat Clark), who run a home security business as a front for David\u2019s nightly exploits fighting and solving crime. We are then brought to a run down empty warehouse, where The Beast (James McCoy), along with his many other personalities, has kidnapped four cheerleaders and has them chained down, presumably for The Beast\u2019s later consumption. It\u2019s an odd look for sure, with the cheerleaders in full uniform, stuck in some grungy, cliched, horror film set that somehow conjures images of Nirvana\u2019s \u201cSmells Like Teen Spirit\u201d video and just seems all too convenient considering this is one of the first places the police should look when four young girls go missing. But this is just the beginning of the film\u2019s plot conveniences.\nAfter an initial encounter between The Beast and David, they are duped by an army of cops waiting outside and brought to a mental institution where they will be examined for their belief that they are superheroes. Never mind The Beast is a suspected serial killer with multiple personalities, and David is an internet famous vigilante who has severely injured numerous people. Forget jail or trial, we\u2019re taking them to the very same institution where Mr. Glass (Samuel L. Jackson) is housed so that nineteen years later he can team up with them, help them escape, and enact some nefarious plan he has imagined just for this moment. No, I\u2019m not kidding. That\u2019s the plot.\nAnd while we wait for this, the film spends it\u2019s entire middle half inside the walls of the hospital as a monotone Dr. Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson) tries to convince the trio that their various \u201csuper powers\u201d are merely coincidental. None of these conversations are interesting, and each requires some kind of plot mechanism to ensure they would even be possible. Like the one that allows Dr. Staple or an orderly to stand in the same room as The Beast, as their safety depends on a light flashing device installed at the doorway which conveniently, and without fail, instantly changes his personality to another more docile one. Meanwhile, the character whose name graces the film\u2019s title is no where to be found until the midway point, and even then he\u2019s a sedated mute. And Bruce Willis couldn\u2019t look any more bored, but can you blame him?\nEven more baffling is the promised climax that never actually happens. In fact, aside from the opening sequence, the entire film takes place inside the hospital or in the hospital\u2019s parking lot. And given the size of the hospital and the criminal\u2019s within, there seems to be some really shoddy (or convenient) security in place where there are two employees working 12 on / 12 off shifts and a security guard who mans a gate at the front door. Aside from this, we never see any other employees or any other patients for that matter. Safe to say, you don\u2019t have to be a genius like Mr. Glass to figure a way out. But when you do, the property room still has your superhero gear ready and waiting because after all, you can\u2019t fight The Beast without your rain coat and you can\u2019t execute your diabolical scheme without your \u201cMG\u201d charm from almost 20 years ago.\nIf anything saves \u201cGlass\u201d it\u2019s James McAvoy\u2019s performance, as he has perfected the transitions from personality to personality in a manner that is truly frightening. But seeing the character again just 2 years removed from \u201cSplit\u201d takes away some of the novelty. I don\u2019t want to say \u201cGlass\u201d belongs in the same territory as \u201cThe Happening\u201d, but the result here, particularly because of the ambiguous ending, leaves you feeling unsatisfied and bewildered. There was an opportunity here that seems like it was missed. The idea of superheroes living among us and utilizing their special talents without the need for flashy costumes or other worldly explanations is as intriguing as any for a film. But why act like everything has to be a secret and contain nearly the entire film in one building? Throughout the film, Shyamalan has his characters invoke the necessary framework for great comic book characters and stories, as if the story itself was a comic book in the making. Fact is, if this story was in the form of a comic book, it would be in the bargain bin within a week. GRADE: C-\nThe hardships of drug addiction on a person, and those closest to them, is unquestionably one of the most difficult obstacles someone can attempt to overcome. Looking at this scenario from the perspective of both the user and a family desperate to help, \u201cBeautiful Boy\u201d is a poignant and startling story of a father\u2019s fight to help his son through his late teen years as he struggles with drug use and the expectations of his family of which he feels he will never meet. Directed by Felix Van Groeningen, the film is based on the memoirs written by David Sheff and Nic Sheff, a true life father and son duo of whom the film\u2019s story is based on. The sheer turbulence on screen presents a harrowing scenario where any positive outcome seems nearly impossible, as the family must ultimately determine when their own son is beyond helping. A decision that is as gut wrenching as any a parent would have to make.\nFollowing up his Oscar nominated performance in 2017\u2019s \u201cCall Me by Your Name\u201d, Timothee Chalamet delves deep within the soul of Nic Sheff, portraying the character with the kind of raw emotion and realism that could certainly have him back in the awards conversation again this year. Nic is an 18 year old expected by his father, David (Steve Carell), to go to college and enjoy the kind of success we all want for our children. And while Nic has certainly benefitted from an upper class upbringing thanks to his father\u2019s success as a writer, he is the product of a broken home with his parents divorcing when he was young. His mother moved away, limiting visits to the holidays, leaving his father to raise him. Soon after the divorce, David married again and had two children with his second wife, Karen (Maura Tierney). Those of us who have ourselves been involved in similar scenarios know the potential pitfalls of this dynamic. No matter how much attention David would give Nic, there would always be others requiring his attention as well. And often times the kid in the middle isn\u2019t so quick to sign off on such an arrangement.\nThe narrative structure utilized by Van Groeningen is little messy. The story shifts between what seems like dozens of timelines, flashing forward and then back so many times, it can be difficult to keep track of. Perhaps the filmmakers wanted to depict the chaotic nature of these true events by keeping the audience off balance, but the result leads to confusion and may have been better suited as a story told in a more linear fashion. Nonetheless, the film remains a powerful force throughout. Not once did I notice any kind of needless camera movement or unnecessary fluff employed by Van Groeningen in order to score points for artistry. Instead, the director simply points his camera in close up on his actors and lets them perform. A wise decision given the subject matter and the incredible talent he is working with.\nIt must\u2019ve been three quarters of the way through before we finally meet Nic\u2019s mother, Vicki (Amy Ryan), who attempts to shepherd her son through one of the many addiction programs he takes part in over several years, only to relapse each time. The affects of drug addiction are obvious when we see Nic attempting to cope with his life as it unfolds around him, but what \u201cBeautiful Boy\u201d really excels at is ensuring we understand the strain a teenager can put on a couple who do not share that child in common. Sure, Karen indicates she will treat Nic like her own son, but these relationships (Step Parent / Step Child) are filled with an unending array of potential landmines as it is. Inject an issue such as the step child being addicted to drugs, and the blood parent now becoming consumed with helping instead of tending to his new family\u2019s needs, and you have a classic slippery slope. And there is no book to read that can provide answers.\nNic himself remains lost throughout the process, as he attempts to live life independently of his family, while often returning in order to get money or steal valuables he can sell in order to maintain his habit. He freely admits his disease is of his own doing and refuses to categorize his problem with a sickness such as cancer. But despite the repeated attempts to help from those who care deeply for him, something internally drives him to make the wrong decision. It\u2019s a state of mind I hope to never understand.\nDespite the outstanding work by Chalamet, it is the ever dependable Steve Carell who anchors the film with a steady and nuanced performance indicative of the emotional roller coaster he finds himself on as his son falls deeper into the darkness of addiction. As the custodial parent, he endures phone calls from Nic\u2019s mother, who from far away blames him for their son\u2019s problems. At home, he tries to shield his younger son and daughter from any outward displays of negativity, yet there is also the lingering issue of Karen\u2019s patience wearing thin as she begins to see things spiraling out of control. Imagine being Karen, having to endure all of this with virtually no say in potential solutions as her husband David and his ex wife are thrust back together in order to deal with something few people will truly understand. These are real issues that society has yet to determine proper solutions for. Everyone is different and no case is the same. And given the circumstances here, it\u2019s amazing it didn\u2019t end much worse than it did. GRADE: B+\nThere\u2019s no telling the heights writer/director Barry Jenkins will ultimately reach, but the amazing work he has on display with \u201cIf Beale Street Could Talk\u201d is a certain indication there is no limit to his potential given this is just his third feature. Based on the book by the late James Baldwin (the subject of the powerful 2016 documentary \u201cI Am Not Your Negro\u201d), Jenkins' film, taking place in the early 1970s, explores social issues which sadly remain topical in today\u2019s society. At its core, \u201cIf Beale Street Could Talk\u201d is a deep rooted love story where two soulmates must navigate the pitfalls of a legal system seemingly designed to work against them. There is, perhaps, no greater injustice than the thought of two people meant to be together, only to be separated by prison walls when someone is accused of a crime he didn\u2019t commit. And the fact many of these issues remain nearly fifty years after Baldwin penned the novel is a stain on the fabric of our society and our role as human beings.\nAs narrated by the story\u2019s lead character, Tish (KiKi Layne), the film reveals to us early on that the father of her unborn child, Fonny (Stephan James), has been arrested for a sexual assault which given they were together the night of the crime, means it was impossible for him to have been the suspect. A scenario which means the couple is separated by a glass barrier during visitation, even when Tish first informs Fonny they are going to have a baby. The first thought about the information given at this point in the film is why was Fonny arrested in the first place? If it can be proven he wasn\u2019t anywhere near where the crime occurred at the time it occurred, how did he end up handcuffed and in the back of a police car? Those questions are eventually answered with a set of twisted facts and racially charged legal politics that will only infuriate you. If only it could be said stories like this aren\u2019t true, but they are.\nJenkins uses a non linear format to tell the story, allowing the audience to flashback to the very foundation of Fonny and Tish\u2019s romance. We also view the story in the present as Fonny remains in jail awaiting trial while the family deals with Tish\u2019s pregnancy and the legal defense necessary to prove Fonny did not commit the crime. These issues set up two key scenes in which the acting is some of the best you will see in a film this year. It\u2019s my understanding that both of these scenes are the highlight of Baldwin\u2019s book as well.\nThe first could easily play out on a Broadway stage as Tish reveals to her mother, Sharon (Regina King), that she and Fonny are having a baby. This leads to an after dinner conversation adding Tish\u2019s father, Joseph (Colman Domingo) and her older sister, Ernestine (Teyonah Parris) to the mix. In hilarious fashion, Sharon pulls down a top shelf bottle of liquor for the occasion, a gesture of which Joseph can sense the importance of the pending announcement. The scene is a clear indication of the loving nature of this family. Through the reactions of each person, we gain a clear understanding of the fact they will support one another through thick and thin, never wavering even in the toughest of times.\nIt is then decided they will invite Fonny\u2019s family over to tell them the big news. And through Tish\u2019s narration, we are warned some of the personalities have never mixed very well. Fonny\u2019s father, Frank (Michael Beach), seems to have a long history with Joseph, but his wife, Mrs. Hunt (Aunjanue Ellis), brings with her an overt belief in God and feels it is necessary to chastise those who do not follow suit. Her daughters, Adrienne (Ebony Obsidian) and Shiela (Dominique Thorne) are literal clones of their mother and the three of them look down arrogantly at Tish and her family, criticizing them after the announcement and judging their every move in the aftermath. All of this while Fonny remains in jail with an uncertain future.\nThe second scene involves the fact that the victim in the crime, Victoria Rogers (Emily Rios), has fled the country to her native Puerto Rico and cannot be found by the District Attorney. Common sense would dictate if you don\u2019t have a victim, how can you have a crime? Particularly if there are two witnesses who can testify as to Fonny\u2019s whereabouts at the time of the crime. Nonetheless, Sharon takes it upon herself to track Victoria down and is able to come face to face with her, revealing the true nature of the situation. But none of what she uncovers ultimately matters with the racial injustice common within the system that seeks to ensure Fonny is convicted and sent to prison.\nJenkins expertly weaves these scenes within a very tender and emotionally charged narrative centered around Fonny and Tish falling in love, moving in together, and having a family. It\u2019s heartbreaking to see these two having to overcome so much simply because of race, but you also realize the feelings of hate resonate on both sides, making a potential solution seem impossible.\n\u201cIf Beale Street Could Talk\u201d is Jenkins' followup to his Best Picture winning \u201cMoonlight\u201d (2016), a set of sterling accomplishments which now cements his name amongst the top filmmakers in the industry. And what really strikes me about his work is the fact each of these two films have something important to say and successfully ingrain their respective messages into the minds of the audience long after leaving the theater. This is a testament to both his writing and directing, but also to the performances of his actors, particularly those of Stephan James, who recently shined along side Julia Roberts in Amazon\u2019s \u201cHomecoming\u201d, and Regina King who both nail their respective characters in a way that would make any thespian green with envy. These elements, along with a breakout performance by KiKi Layne, create yet another exceptional film from Jenkins and one of the best of the year. GRADE: A\nWriter / Director Adam McKay\u2019s \u201cVice\u201d seeks to bring light to a person and story of which has already been thoroughly explored. A surprising move as a follow up to his Academy Award winning 2015 film \u201cThe Big Short\u201d. \u201cVice\u201d is a seething takedown of Vice President Dick Cheney, who served under President George W. Bush from 2001 - 2009 and was said to be the most powerful VP in our history. I suppose it\u2019s not overly shocking McKay chose to go this route, particularly considering the daily takedown of our current President, why not make a film about a former leader and destroy his image too? Everyone is doing it after all. Not that Cheney needed any help in that regard, since he left office with an approval rating that hovered around 13%. Fact is, documentary filmmaker Michael Moore previously fired many of these shots in his massively successful 2004 documentary \u201cFahrenheit 9/11\u201d, doing so without the need to engage in what comes off as a Hollywood costume party.\nThere is one glaring issue with \u201cVice\u201d that I have to figure will turn off most audiences, and the reasoning behind the problem is actually found in \u201cThe Big Short\u201d. In that film, the story centers around subject matter nearly every person in this country can gravitate to: The Recession of 2008. Talk to anyone and you\u2019ll likely hear a story involving tremendous financial loss that had significant ramifications on their lives moving forward. And in some cases, even now ten years later, they have yet to fully recover. Now given \u201cThe Big Short\u201d is a dramatic dissection of the reasons the recession was caused, the film tends to be a major punch to the gut. For all it\u2019s comedic aspects and stellar performances (many of whom also appear in \u201cVice\u201d), \u201cThe Big Short\u201d pisses you off and thus strikes the kind of emotional chord few films are successful in achieving.\n\u201cVice \u201c on the other hand plays like old news. Regardless of your politics, the likelihood of you caring for this kind of material is low. And it\u2019s not like anyone entering the theater will leave with a different opinion or outlook anyway. Doing a politically charged biopic can only accomplish two things: Illicit cheers from one side and groans from the other. And given McKay utilizes essentially the same style and filter as he did in \u201cThe Big Short\u201d, the resulting tone simply doesn\u2019t match the material. With Cheney depicted as a monotone introverted wise guy, the serious nature of the issues explored don\u2019t mesh well with the smart ass detours McKay likes to take every few scenes. If anything, the filmmakers should have sided with a tone more akin to last year\u2019s \u201cDarkest Hour\u201d, rather than reverting to the silly antics of McKay\u2019s \u201cAnchorman\u201d days.\nOn the positive side, \u201cVice\u201d boasts an engaging performance from a shapeshifting and unrecognizable Christian Bale as Vice President Dick Cheney. The actor, who has said he gained 45 pounds for the role, delivers yet another memorable character, even if this one was likely conceived from heaping amounts of embellishment. The early years scream by as we see a drunken Yale flunky who somehow makes his way to a Congressional internship working for then Congressman Donald Rumsfeld (Steve Carell). The story moves forward via a nifty plot device courtesy of our narrator named Kurt (played by Jesse Plemons), making stops at most of Cheney\u2019s various posts within the government, including President Ford\u2019s Chief of Staff, and President George H.W. Bush\u2019s Secretary of Defense. Along the way, Cheney is accompanied by his smart and quite ambitious wife Lynne (Amy Adams), as they navigate the political landscape, complete with all of the typical backstabbing and pitfalls we are accustomed to seeing, in much the same way the similar Frank and Claire Underwood do in Netflix\u2019s \u201cHouse of Cards.\u201d\nBut there are no bombshells, nor tidbits of compelling information presented anywhere in the 132 minute run time. About half way through, George W. Bush (Sam Rockwell) is introduced as a secondary character and a backyard meeting between him and Cheney ultimately results in the two becoming running mates and defeating Al Gore in the 2000 election. When 9/11 happens less than a year later, the story delves into the core of its purported existence by presenting several layers of Cheney\u2019s power pulpit including multiple offices in and around the most important parts of Washington D.C., the angling of various constitutional legal opinions that give the Executive Branch more power, and the inevitable mentioning of the U.S. engaging in torture tactics during the war on terror. Again, regardless of your individual take on things, isn\u2019t all of this something we\u2019ve left in the past?\nThe reason McKay\u2019s \u201cThe Big Short\u201d worked so well is the characters being portrayed on screen were not people who have remained in the public eye for decades. The crimes committed by those behind our financial ruin were done by faceless men who were too cowardly to be on the forefront of anything, choosing instead to hide behind the scenes within their deregulated and well protected existence. With costumed political satire airing each week on Saturday Night Live, transforming stars into well known political figures in the film world, particuarly when the person is from our recent and contentious history, is clearly a tricky proposition as it opens up the character to instant and unforgiving scrutiny. That fact does \u201cVice\u201d no favors.\nNow I know the probability of cooperation from the Cheney family would be highly unlikely, but the material here is clearly better suited for the documentary format, so as to hear the facts and opinions from those directly involved with Vice President Cheney. The filmmakers themselves even open the film by saying Cheney was a secretive politician and thus they \u201cdid their f**king best\u201d to tell his story and the events depicted accurately. And that\u2019s the film\u2019s biggest problem. How can you tell a story without having walked in this man\u2019s shoes? How can you possibly portray what Cheney was thinking in the decision room as 9/11 was going on in real time, without the man himself weighing in? It\u2019s at that point you begin to wonder how much fiction and conjecture was necessary to fill out the script. GRADE: C\nIt it wasn\u2019t clear before, it is most definitely the case now. The filmmaking world is incapable of producing content without lifting key design and plot elements from classic films of the past. For all the talk about reboots and remakes, there seems to be another trend that has been occurring for some time now in which films such as \u201cStar Wars\u201d and \u201cBlade Runner\u201d have become templates where filmmakers simply insert their own characters and play as though the work is their own. The latest example of this is director James Wan\u2019s \u201cAquaman\u201d, an origin story of the character introduced to the filmgoing world in both \u201cBatman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice\u201d and last year\u2019s \u201cJustice League\u201d. Now I realize most will let these issues slide, and many won\u2019t notice, but it\u2019s amazing what lengths these film studios will go in order to guarantee themselves a hit.\nWhat exactly am I talking about? \u201cAquaman\u201d transports the audience to the underwater world of Atlantis, a sprawling and beautiful aquatic metropolis that appears not to be somewhere within Earth\u2019s oceans, but rather those of Pandora. In addition, the city\u2019s design elements look suspiciously like those within Coruscant, seen in the \u201cStar Wars\u201d prequels, with the notable overhead flying traffic lanes and infinite levels of futuristic structures below. If rumors are true that James Cameron\u2019s \u201cAvatar\u201d sequels will partly take place underwater, than he must be pissed right about now because Wan likely beat him to the clear and obvious look of a potential oceanic city. Take it a step further and Cameron might also not like the fact \u201cAquaman\u201d features plot devices taken directly from 1989\u2019s \u201cThe Abyss\u201d in which those living below the water are not happy with us land dwellers and our habits with war and pollution. There\u2019s even the recycled image of a massive brightly and colorfully lit underwater craft rising to the surface and thus lifting other ships and people who were floating above it. Is this a case of \u201cWhat\u2019s old is new again\u201d? Or is it ok now to rescue a failing franchise by reusing the ideas and concepts of other more successful films?\nFortunately, all of this works in the favor of \u201cAquaman\u201d given the fact it removes the action away from any chance the other \u201cJustice League\u201d characters could enter the fray and muck the whole thing up. With the vast majority of scenes taking place under water, the story belongs solely to Jason Mamoa\u2019s titular superhero. The screenplay by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and Will Beall works to the film\u2019s advantage as well, providing some weight to the proceedings where we actually understand what the characters are fighting for and why. It also helps that Mamoa is paired with Amber Heard\u2019s Mera, which gives the action scenes the welcome addition of an ass kicking female lead who challenges Aquaman both physically and mentally.\nThrough dialogue, it is indicated the events unfolding are taking place after the heroes of \u201cJustice League\u201d defeated the menacing, yet personality free CGI creation, Steppenwolf, an act which essentially saved Atlantis and has now put Aquaman, who goes by Arthur Curry on the mainland, in line to take his rightful place as King. In a flashback, we learn Arthur is the child of Queen Atlanna (Nicole Kidman) and a lighthouse keeper she falls in love with named Tom Curry (Temuera Morrison). An affair of which is said to have been executed for, which left her only full blooded son, King Orm (Patrick Wilson), as the purported heir to the throne. Politics between those within the royal power pulpit, including King Nereus (Dolph Lundgren) and Orm\u2019s top advisor, Vulko (Willem Dafoe), lead to the idea of an all out war with the unsuspecting people living on land. All the while, Arthur and Mera embark on an expedition to find a hidden Trident said to be wielded by the only true King of Atlantis.\nAware of Arthur and Mera\u2019s exploits, Orm sends a goon squad led by Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), a pirate with an ax to grind against Arthur, in an attempt to stop them. The sequence leads to a tone changing foray in the desert that has the look and feel of an \u201cIndiana Jones\u201d movie, but then moves quickly to a roof top chase in Italy that plays exactly like the one in \u201cFast Five\u201d where Vin Diesel encounters The Rock for the first time. Although the action here, trumped up with a sci-fi twist, is definitely top shelf. Wan, at one point, propels his camera, as if it\u2019s on a zip line, from one roof top to one a football field away where simultaneous action is occurring with different characters. Even though, yet again, there\u2019s familiarity from another film franchise, the adrenaline still flows in the scene, creating a high stakes confrontation between a superhero and masked villain equipped with the very best in Atlantian technology.\nBut like nearly every superhero film before it, \u201cAquaman\u201d stages a massive and mostly unintelligible battle sequence in the third act where multiple sides collide in all out war for aquatic supremacy. You\u2019ll again be reminded of \u201cAvatar\u201d, both because the field of battle resembles Pandora, as well as the many people involved in the fight are riding various sea creatures of whom they can communicate with in much the same way the Na\u2019vi could with their surrounding animal population. It\u2019s also overkill and mind numbing, as you realize the film has now gone on for well over 2 hours with the conclusion no where in sight. As a CGI demo reel, the sequence would certainly turn heads. But what exactly does it add to the story? Did the filmmakers believe the key to saving the DC Universe was more excess? Aren\u2019t they paying attention to that other comic book film studio across town? You know, the one\u2019s whose characters we actually care about?\nAs Arthur Curry / Aquaman, Jason Mamoa is one of those rare actors who possesses both the physical tools, as well as the charisma to bring the character to heights many may have never thought possible. In fact, more of a story dependent on his considerable presence may have done wonders for the film, considering none of the best qualities of his performance are featured in any of the dozens of action sequences. Think back to 1978\u2019s \u201cSuperman\u201d and the dramatic aspects of character development which propelled Christopher Reeve to legendary status. You get the feeling Jason Mamoa could\u2019ve done the same, but unfortunately the filmmakers became too impressed with all of the toys they were given to play with and ignored the very basic components of telling a story. And because the film is jam packed with so much eye candy, \u201cAquaman\u201d becomes an instant blur soon after you leave the theater. GRADE: C\nThe thought of doing a sequel to the beloved 1964 Disney musical, \u201cMary Poppins\u201d, is daunting when you think about everything that would need to go right, along with everything that will likely go wrong. In today\u2019s toxic and incendiary social media frenzy within the world of filmdom, it isn\u2019t possible to please everyone. But director Rob Marshall\u2019s \u201cMary Poppins Returns\u201d certainly tries to be practically perfect in every way, clearly making the effort to pay homage to the original, rather than breaking the kind of new ground likely to cause a fuss amongst the masses. The filmmakers here played it safe in other words. A decision whose dividends may not be known until many years down the road.\nIn order to flourish beyond their theatrical windows and remain relevant for decades to come, it is crucial for a musical to have a catchy hit or two that thrives within other mediums such as radio and streaming. Bottom line is people need to be listening to the songs outside of watching the film. 2016\u2019s \u201cLa La Land\u201d had the Oscar nominated \u201cAudition\u201d and the Oscar winning \u201cCity of Stars\u201d. 2017\u2019s \u201cThe Greatest Showman\u201d had the ultra popular \u201cThis Is Me\u201d, plus an entire soundtrack that has since been re-released with covers by notable artists such as Pink and Kesha. Now think back to \u201cMary Poppins\u201d and I\u2019ll bet at least a half dozen songs immediately come to mind with hits like \u201cA Spoon Full Of Sugar\u201d, \u201cJolly Holiday\u201d, \u201cFeed The Birds\u201d, \u201cLets Go Fly A Kite\u201d, as well as that catchy tune about a certain really long word, are practically rolling off your tongue as if you just saw the film yesterday. So my question remains: Will we be singing and thinking about \u201cThe Place Where Lost Things Go\u201d and \u201cTrip a Little Light Fantastic\u201d at this time next year? We will see.\nMarshall and his collaborators seem intent on keeping both the look and feel of the original film intact and have gone to painstaking lengths to ensure 1930s London nearly replicates everything we remember about the sets and locations from the first film. And this is a good thing. The last thing we would have wanted is a re-imagining that didn\u2019t feel like a \u201cMary Poppins\u201d film, where the production design wallows into an unintentional modern vibe. What you want here is the following of J.J. Abrams\u2019 \u201cThe Force Awakens\u201d blueprint in which from the opening frame, we know we are in the right world.\nAnd so it begins with a musical number where we meet Jack (Lin-Manuel Miranda), a lamp lighter who as a young boy worked as a chimney sweep and now bicycles from street to street ensuring the dark cobblestoned walkways are properly lit. On one of those streets is the familiar Banks home, which now two decades after the first film is suffering through a series of awful family tragedies. The now grown Michael Banks (Ben Whishaw) recently lost his wife and the mother of their three children, Anabel (Pixie Davies), John (Nathanael Saleh), and Georgie (Joel Dawson). Michael and the kids receive constant support from his sister, Jane (Emily Mortimer), but after a year of grieving, their financial situation is about to take a turn for the worse. In order to stay afloat for the past year, Michael had to borrow against his home and after missing several payments is now being told by the bank the family home will be repossessed.\nIt\u2019s in these difficult times the family needs someone to help keep them together and moving in the right direction. And this is again when Mary Poppins (Emily Blunt) appears and with her comes the familiar framework of the original film, along with a slew of musical numbers, some of which are effective, and others that could have been shortened or cut altogether. Nonetheless, the story proceeds as Mary begins by getting the three children to shape up and learn from her time tested wisdom. As Mary takes the children through a whimsical array of animated worlds and choreographed dance numbers, Michael continues in his attempts to save the family\u2019s home by imploring the bank manager, Wilkins (Colin Firth), to give them more time. But of course, there are ill intentioned motivations behind the bank\u2019s business dealings unbeknownst to the Banks family.\nMarshall manages to work in cameos and musical numbers that include both Dick Van Dyke and Angela Lansbury who starred in the original, as well as an unneeded detour involving Mary\u2019s cousin Topsy, played by Meryl Streep. The script, written by David Magee, seeks to inject a number of life lessons, courtesy of Mary, as the stress of losing their home so soon after the loss of their wife and mother begins to take a toll. And those lessons revolve directly around Mary preaching you must never forget how to be a child. What she means is holding on to the ability to be happy and thankful for what you have, knowing the rest will eventually work itself out. Loss is something nearly impossible to deal with and the themes explored in \u201cMary Poppins Returns\u201d are definitely well beyond the younger crowd parents may believe the film is intended for.\nAfter her tour de force performance in \u201cA Quiet Place\u201d earlier this year, Emily Blunt ably steps into the shoes of the character made famous by Julie Andrews. And she does so, not necessarily by making the character her own, but rather continuing on with the performance as if Andrews had never left. She absolutely nails it, from the mannerisms to the look. With so much to measure up to and expectations through the roof, the entire cast is certainly up to the task, providing a film that is sure to lift your family\u2019s spirit and perhaps even help you realize things are not all that bad after all. No one said \u201cStar Wars: The Force Awakens\u201d was better than \u201cStar Wars: A New Hope\u201d, but that doesn\u2019t mean the modern filmmakers here haven\u2019t created something equally as special. The original is always the benchmark, especially if you grew up with it. \u201cMary Poppins Returns\u201d is a sequel that doesn\u2019t seek to necessarily surpass it\u2019s predecessor, but instead looks to remind all of us what makes this character one of the most iconic in all of Disney lore.

        "raw_content": "There are different kinds of cruises that are meant to cater to different people. A cruise line is one of the best places to get information about a cruise. If one is interested to go on a cruise as a couple, they should select a cruise which will be suitable for romantic getaways. Luxury dining for two, massages and many dining venues for date night are some of the services that one will get when they select a cruise that focuses on couples. One can select a cruise based on the activities that they offer for an age group such as seniors. When one joins a cruise that is suitable for senior people they may find activities such as ballroom dancing, afternoon tea, cooking classes, etc.\nThe benefit of going for a cruise that accommodates children is that one will be able to find nurseries for babies, play spaces, games, and cabins for families. Joining a cruise like this that caters to families is enjoyable especially when they have parades and also parties that families can enjoy with their children. Zip lines, onboard surfing, climbing walls and DJ classes, video games, are some of the activities that are included for cruises that cater for families with older children. Basketball, surfing, rock climbing, weight machines, cycling, aerobics, etc are some of the activities that people who want to keep fit can enjoy when they join a cruise that offers this. Those who enjoy sporting activities can also use the sports courts when they want to. Fine dining, rooms with balconies or windows, attentive service, excursions and hotel stays is what is available for people who choose a cruise where they want to splurge.\nAfter selection of the activities that one is interested in, one can search for a cruise line to find out additional information about a cruise. The kind of food that one will get will also depend on one\u2019s budget for a cruise. Some other important information that one should get when they are considering to go on a cruise is the destination that the cruise is going to. Different cruises offer some shore excursions to visitors and one needs to consider these activities before participating in a cruise. People will enjoy going on a cruise because it is convenient to travel in this manner since one will be exposed to different places without having to take trains or pay for airfare. Some cruise lines normally strive to offer good services to their customers and one can benefit from this when they select a suitable cruise.\nOn Resources: My Rationale Explained \u2192",

Since the other kid in town had the string, Bruce chose the latter. This began a life long career in the person-to-person and mass communication that radio is.\nBruce\u2019s career spans 44 years, most of which has been in Edmonton. Morning radio has been his home since 1980. CISN FM enjoyed Bruce hosting the morning show for twenty one years. He took the opportunity when it arose to move to sister station 630 CHED, so Bruce shifted gears to talk radio and has been there for the past five years.\nBruce and Mary live in Edmonton. They have two grown children and now, proudly, two grandchildren. Bruce\u2019s past times include his passion working for the homeless, running and going on road trips on his motorcycle. His work with the homeless was encouraged thanks to an opportunity to sit on the Salvation Army advisory board for over twelve years.\nThree times, Bruce has spent three days living on the street to bring attention to the plight of the homeless and to raise funds for Hope Mission. Of the many things he has experienced over his radio career, he considers this the most rewarding.\nWe greatly enjoyed having Bruce host 'Play It Forward' last year and look forward to his return to our stage as he MC's the 2017 'Play It Forward' at Festival Place on September 30th.",

        "raw_content": "Tighter rules taking effect on travel to US from 6 nations\nAfter months of wrangling, tighter restrictions on travel to the U.S. from six mostly Muslim nations take effect Thursday evening after the Supreme Court gave its go-ahead for a limited version of President Donald Trump's plans for a ban. Under the new guidelines from the State Department, travelers from the 6 countries must prove they have a parent, spouse, child, sibling, son-in-law or daughter-in-law already in the United States. If they can't, they will be banned for 90 days.\nVisas that have already been approved will not be revoked, and that should help avert the kind of chaos at airports around the world that surrounded an initial travel ban ordered shortly after Trump took office. In that case, some travelers with previously approved visas were kept off flights or barred entry on arrival in the U.S.\nMuslim Americans who spoke with News 12 Long Island say the revised travel ban is disappointing.\n\"I think this is just the tip of the iceberg. I think [President Trump] is just testing the water. Maybe has something up his sleeve that will come out in the next few months,\" says Nayyar Imam, of the Long Island Muslim Alliance. \"Maybe more restrictions or maybe restrictions to Muslims living in this country. We are really cautiously sitting tight and watching every move.\"\nImam says he was planning a trip to Pakistan this summer to visit family members he hasn't seen in 10 years. Even though Pakistan is not one of the nation's list in the ban, he is not going on the trip over worries that things could change.\nThe travel ban will remain in effect until the Supreme Court makes a final decision, which could take months.\nAP Wire Services were used in this report",

Long Intermediate School. It measured levels of chemicals inside the school and on its grounds, including in some classrooms and the basement.\n\"Some of them are below standards,\" Esposito says. \"Some are above standards. But there's about two dozen of them (the chemicals), and collectively, how does that impact the health of the students and the teachers?\"\nParents and teachers say a number of employees and students at the school have developed cancer, asthma and other illnesses.\nSkye Dodge, a former student at the school, says she canceled a lot of after-school activities because of headaches that plagued her while she went there. Since moving on, she says, the problem has subsided.\nHer mother and other parents and teachers say they worry that the Brookhaven landfill has been making people sick.\n\"It should be closed down until they know it's safe enough for our children and faculty to come back,\" says Caroline Wilkinson, another parent at the school. She says her son has gotten sick repeatedly.\nThe district did not immediately respond to a News 12 request for comment.\nThe school board will meet Wednesday, and the testing company is expected to be there.",

        "raw_content": "It's my birthday tomorrow, and because I am not just a good guy but generous with it, I am going to give you all a present. Same present for everybody, mind, so you'll have to share, but it's a nice one.\nIt's a large pgn file of the collected games and annotations of Raymond Keene, all in one place for your comfort and convenience. It stretches from 1961, the first annotated game being an Old Indian Defence against John Sugden from that year, to 1988, the last one being from a little earlier, a King's Indian Attack essayed by Zarb.\nI can't actually remember how I came across it first. I thought I had discovered it by accident when, in 2013, I was researching Ray's habits of reproducing his own notes, or other people's, on the sly - Googling a phrase must have produced, among the results, our pgn file. Not so, though, since checking my old emails I find I've been aware of it since 2010 having come across it by chance on this site, maintained by Philip Hughes. The site actually promises us a collection of Ray's games\nand though I can't locate it now, it must have been there at some point. Whatever - here it is, and what an invaluable resource it is.\nOf course you may have come across some of the material before, and more than once.\nIt's neither complete, nor definitive: a collection, rather than the collection. It's not the Complete Games of Ray and nor is it the Complete Annotations, for a few reasons, one of which is that each game appears only once, and so where there is more than one set of annotations, only one appears in the file.\nFor instance, Keene-Timman, Hastings 1974, was annotated in the British Chess Magazine for that year (apologies for the small size)\nbut the notes in the file, which are these, are very different, and appear to derive from Informator\nnot that I can confirm this personally (I don't have Informator) and not that Chessgames.com tell their readers this.\nIndeed it's among the advantages of having this file that you're sometimes given a clue to the origin of notes which you might otherwise think actually originated on Chessgames.com: for instance the annotations to his famous victory over Penrose in 1971 are credited to the British Chess Magazine\nand most of them do in fact appear there.\nBut in this instance, not all, since (again, apologies for the small size)\nyou won't find this section\nwhich appears in most subsequent versions.\nAnd similarly of course, with this set of notes\nwhich you no doubt recognise by now, and which, it is suggested, come from the BCM\nbut wherever they do come from, it's not from there.\nStill, these flaws, in so far as they're flaws at all, are of limited importance - it's not a resource for checking up on Ray so much as one for reading him, most of it coming from the days when he was a player and an annotator of some class.\nThey're good notes, Brent.\nBrent???",

Wand\nDedicated to the Memory of Robert Hieb\nThe report gives a defining description of the programming language Scheme. Scheme is a statically scoped and properly tail-recursive dialect of the Lisp programming language invented by Guy Lewis Steele Jr. and Gerald Jay Sussman. It was designed to have an exceptionally clear and simple semantics and few different ways to form expressions. A wide variety of programming paradigms, including imperative, functional, and message passing styles, find convenient expression in Scheme.\nThe introduction offers a brief history of the language and of the report.\nThe first three chapters present the fundamental ideas of the language and describe the notational conventions used for describing the language and for writing programs in the language.\nChapters Expressions and Program structure describe the syntax and semantics of expressions, programs, and definitions.\nChapter Standard procedures describes Scheme\u2019s built-in procedures, which include all of the language\u2019s data manipulation and input/output primitives.\nChapter Formal syntax and semantics provides a formal syntax for Scheme written in extended BNF, along with a formal denotational semantics. An example of the use of the language follows the formal syntax and semantics.\nThe report concludes with a list of references and an alphabetic index.",

        "raw_content": "Promised forever\nThis past week I had a couple of small, private funerals. All that were in attendance were family and a few close friends. They were nice, quiet times where the family just wanted to have something so they could say good bye to their loved ones.\nWhat\u2019s nice about these services is that they are often much less formal. People tend to be more relaxed, and often, but not always, they are less emotional. I\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s a good thing or not, but there is definitely a different feel to these smaller services.\nUsually when I meet with a family they just say they want something simple. So I offer some prayers, read some scripture, share some words of hope, and that\u2019s it. There\u2019s no music, no eulogies, we\u2019re in and out in 10 minutes.\nBut even in their simpleness, there is still something very special about these services. There is still a presence, and I know it touches people because of their comments afterwards. Sometimes it\u2019s a promise to start coming to church, sometimes it\u2019s just a simple thank you, and the way they look me in the eyes to say it tells me God has touched them.\nFor the families who have no church connection, they feel something. They want to hear that their loved one will be taken care of, that they have gone to a better place. But they also want to hear words of hope, which is why I think scripture is so important to share.\nEven people who have no connection to the church find hope in the words of the Bible. I\u2019m sure when I open my Bible and start to read, it probably feels foreign to them, but when they listen to the words, it does touch them in some way.\nWhat is the connection? What is it about hearing scripture that touches people in ways they don\u2019t expect?\nI believe it\u2019s because we all have a longing to know the promises of God are for us. We are all created in God\u2019s image. We are all created by and come from God. So there\u2019s something about those words in the Bible which touches us deep inside, it sparks that small light within us many people may have forgotten they carry.\nWe\u2019ve already looked at the power of the words of the Bible earlier this fall when we heard Jesus say in John 15, \u201c You have already been cleansed by the word that I have spoken to you.\u201d (John 15:3)\nWords have power, we know that. We can lift each other\u2019s mood with just a few friendly words. And we can also hurt a person with words that harm.\nIt\u2019s God\u2019s words which consistently lift up. Why? Because they touch us deeper than we can possibly imagine. They keep the light of Christ shining within us, they feed our soul.\nKing David feels this. We jump into his story this morning in 2 Samuel 7. David is resting in his home and he wants to honour God for what He has done in David\u2019s life.\nWe are coming into the story of David just after he has brought the ark of the covenant back to the Israelites. He has returned it home from the hands of their enemies. David is so excited about this development that he, the king, is dancing in at the head of the parade as the ark is led into the city.\nDavid is the second king of the people of Israel, after Saul. And the reign of Saul was not a very good one. Saul became king in a time of turmoil, and little changed. Under David\u2019s leadership the nation has been reunited, and the return of the ark is a big boost to the people.\nDavid is on a huge spiritual high right now. God continues to do great things in his life. Remember how David was the youngest of Jessie\u2019s sons. How he was so small they didn\u2019t even think to line him up when they were looking to find someone to defeat the giant. They left him in the field watching the sheep.\nYet, he was chosen by God to take on that role. Too small to wear armour, he defeated Goliath with a single shot to the forehead.\nGod has been working in David\u2019s life and David is so grateful. It inspired David to write poetry honouring God and reflecting on his daily life in God\u2019s presence. David wrote most of the Psalms we see in our Bibles.\nNow David is most definitely a flawed man. He makes many mistakes, as we all do, but through his story we continue to see he has a huge love for God.\nSo when David brings the ark of the covenant home, he wants to do something. He sees how he was this great cedar planked palace, yet they have simply put up a tent to house the ark, and therefor God, as they see it.\nDavid recognizes the contrast here. He knows God is capable of awesome works, he has experienced so many in his life, so he wants to build a home for God. He wants to build a temple.\nSo David calls the prophet Nathan, his spiritual advisor and Samuel\u2019s son, and begins to speak, \u201cSee now, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God stays in a tent.\u201d (v2)\nDavid doesn\u2019t even finish when Nathan interrupts him. Nathan is excited and knows where David is going with his thoughts and says, \u201cGo right on ahead! God is with you!\u201d\nSo I\u2019m sure David feels well supported and ready to draw up the plans for a great temple where they can store the ark of the covenant.\nYet, that night God speaks to the prophet Nathan. God gives Nathan a message for David. God speaks about how He has never had a house for many generations, going all the way back into Egypt.\nGod goes on to say He has never questioned this, He has never asked anyone to build him a temple. So why start now?\nThe rest of our reading, 2 Samuel 7:8-17, are significant not just for the life of David, but they are significant for us today as well. So let\u2019s take a good look at them.\n\u201cI took you from the pasture, from following the sheep to be prince over my people Israel; and I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you; and I will make for you a great name, like the name of the great ones of the earth.\u201d (2 Samuel 7:8-9)\nGod reminds David that He has been active in David\u2019s life, from a very young age. God has brought peace to David\u2019s life, and the kingdom. And then God makes David a promise, \u201cI will make for you a great name, like the name of the great ones of the earth.\u201d\nAs we look over our Bibles, we see this to be true. God does make a great name out of David. As a historical figure, David is on par with Abraham and Moses, the great fathers of the faith.\nIf we skip down to verse 11 we hear this promise,\n\u201cMoreover the Lord declares to you that the Lord will make you a house. When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come forth from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.\u201d (2 Samuel 7:11-13)\nThe descendants of David will reign over the Southern Kingdom for 400 years after his death. It seems clear that God has indeed kept his promise for a long time. But 400 years is not forever. I\u2019m sure the people over those 400 years were rejoicing that the promise was kept, but what of when the reign finally ends? Was the promise broken?\n\u201cI will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me. When he commits iniquity, I will punish him with a rod such as mortals use, with blows inflicted by human beings. But I will not take my steadfast love from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away from before you. Your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me; your throne shall be established forever.\u201d (2 Samuel 7:14-16)\nWho is God talking about here?\nGod has made a promise for forever. He says it three times, once in verse 13 and twice in verse 16! David\u2019s line will rule forever!\nIn the Bible we see it lasts 400 years. Yes that\u2019s a long time, but it\u2019s not forever. Do God\u2019s promises have a time limit?\nWe simply need to skip to the New Testament to find an answer to that question. In the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 1, we can read a list of ancestors. The list begins with Abraham, goes down to David, then through his son Solomon, and continues to Mary, the mother of Jesus.\nIf we look at Luke 3, we see the list goes back to Adam, the first man, continues down to Abraham and David, and all the way to Joseph, the earthly, or the adopted, father of Jesus.\nAnd if we\u2019re wondering who Jesus is, let\u2019s look at John 1.\n\u201cAnd the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father\u2019s only son, full of grace and truth. From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father\u2019s heart, who has made him known.\u201d (John 1:14-18)\nAll of this leads to the story of Jesus. This promise God made to David in 2 Samuel is showing us just how \u201cforever\u201d God intends the promise to last.\nThe reference to God acting as a father is not very common at all in the Old Testament. Yet God says He will be a father to a child of David, and this child will be a son to God.\nThis son will build a temple. This son will establish a throne forever. The kingdom will last forever.\nHow long will this forever last? Let\u2019s look at the last words of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew as he gathers with his disciples one last time after his resurrection and before he goes to live with God.\n\u201cAll authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.\u201d (Matthew 28:18-20)\nThe king will reign forever. A reminder that this promise of God is true and continues to be true because Jesus is here with us today.\nJesus is the ancestor of David, the one who truly establishes the kingdom, God\u2019s kingdom, God\u2019s reign, God\u2019s place in the world in which we live. Jesus extends the promise because he lives. Jesus is not dead, he is alive and he continues to reign over God\u2019s kingdom still today.\nIn a few minutes we will be praying together the prayer Jesus taught us. And we will acknowledge that God is the Father of Jesus, and by extension He is also our Father in heaven.\nBut what will we pray for? We will pray for God\u2019s kingdom. Not God\u2019s kingdom in heaven, but we will pray for the kingdom to be right here, and right now. \u201cThy kingdom come. Thy will be done\u2026\u201d Where? \u201c\u2026 on earth as it is in heaven.\u201d\nWe are asking God to continue His promise, and that we will witness it for ourselves. We might even have a part in it!\nThis is why this simple reading from 2 Samuel to an excited king riding high on a massive victory is so important.\nGod\u2019s promise to David is not just for David.\nGod\u2019s promise to David is for each and every one of us. It is saying that some day there will be an ultimate king. There will be an ultimate ruler of all of creation. This king will rule forever and ever and ever.\nAnd this king has already come.\nIn Jesus this promise lives on. Jesus came and he did just what God said he would do. Jesus established what it means for the kingdom to exist on this earth. Jesus came and showed us all how to live with respect to God and with each other. Jesus extends God\u2019s grace and mercy to all who follow him.\nYet, there was another part of the promise we skipped over. A part which shows Jesus was a ruler who also suffered.\n\u201cI will punish him with a rod such as mortals use, with blows inflicted by human beings.\u201d (2 Samuel 7:14).\nYes, Jesus was punished brutally at the hands of human beings. It seemed again, in that moment, that the promise of God would end. If Jesus was the Son of God, if he was to establish God\u2019s kingdom forever, how could he die?\nThe very next verse says, \u201cBut I will not take my steadfast love from him\u2026\u201d (2 Samuel 7:15).\nNor did he ever take His love away from us. Three days after Jesus died, women walked to the tomb to see the body\u2026 but it wasn\u2019t there. Jesus was no longer in the tomb, he was no longer dead. He met Mary in the garden and gave her a message to share. Jesus met his disciples, and gave them a job to do; to continue his work.\nIn the life, death and resurrection of Jesus we see God\u2019s promise to David continue forever. It will not end.\nGod has set Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour for the entire world forever.\nGod will never leave us.\nThere may be times when we feel like the promise has been broken. There may be times when we see a new king rise above the others. There may be times when we worship other leaders and look to them for guidance.\nCan anyone say \u201celection time?\u201d\nAnd it doesn\u2019t just happen in the United States. We have seen it here in Canada for generations as people get excited for the new face on the political scene. But, no matter how charismatic they are, no matter how wonderful their promises may be, they will come to an end. They will not reign forever. And there\u2019s a good chance they will fail us and let us down. And there may not even be a happy ending in some cases, maybe even many cases.\nThere is only one who will never fail us. Only one who will never let us down. Only one who can walk with us each and every day forever and ever; in this life and in the life to come.\nWe need to turn to Jesus Christ.\nIn Romans 2 the apostle Paul writes,\n\u201cTherefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God\u2019s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God\u2014this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God\u2019s will is\u2014his good, pleasing and perfect will.\u201d \u202d\u202d(Romans\u202c \u202d12:1-2\u202c)\nWe need to trust in God, that through His Son we are swept up into His promise to be with us, walk with us, and love us. Just as God said He would always do for David in his life. And by accepting this promise in our own lives, God will transform us into His children, not children of this broken world.\nAre we so trusting?\nAre we willing to hear this promise and accept that those words are for us today?\nIn Jesus, those words from thousands of years ago apply to us as well.\nGod has established a king for us. God has extended love to His people.\nGod has sent us a Saviour to show us grace and mercy in our lives.\nAnd God has extended to us an invitation.\nAn invitation to be His people forever.\nAnd the invitation has your name on it.\nHow does it make you feel to know you have a promise from God?\nLord God, thank You for Your steadfast love for us. Thank You for blessing us here with Your Holy Spirit which has been shared to us by Your Son.\nNow as we live our lives, we ask that You will watch over us, helping us to experience Your love, helping us remember Your promise.\nMay we be always aware that You are nearer to us than we know, and may we reach out and know it for certain.\nThis we pray in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen and amen.",

        "title": "Hope Azeda: tackling the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide through the arts \u2013 Mashirika",
        "raw_content": "We meet the woman behind an annual arts festival that takes on the history of one of the bloodiest episodes in Africa\u2019s recent history.\n\u201cWhen I returned to Rwanda,\u201d says playwright and performer Hope Azeda, \u201cthe country was on its knees. It was in ashes and was trying to rise. As an artist, your instinct takes you there \u2013 what can I do?\u201d\nRather than shy away from the genocide that had blighted the country, Azeda approached the subject head-on. Her first play, The Firestones of Sehustitwa \u2013 written while she was still at university, in Uganda \u2013 was an allegory for the internal social conflicts of Rwanda. For Africa\u2019s Hope, which was commissioned in 2004 for the 10th anniversary of the genocide, more than 1,000 performers drew on personal testimonies from the war. Its running time of 100 minutes represented the 100 days of the genocide, and it played to more than 25,000 people in Rwanda alone.\n\u201cThe subject matter is very difficult,\u201d she says of her work. \u201cBut I was more scared of the outcome \u2013 what is going to happen? I remember the first performance I did. It was the 10th commemoration of the genocide. It was looking at genocide through the eyes of a child. I didn\u2019t want to talk about adults. We had messed up everything enough.\u201d\n\u201cI thought to myself, what is a child asking about this? Because they are part of our memorial week \u2013 when the week of April comes, students stop going to school, clubs close, everything happy stops.\u201d \u201cFor me, it was the eyes of a child questioning why it happened. What happened on that day?\u201d\nHer plays since have dealt with other topics plaguing people in Rwanda \u2013 from sexism to Aids \u2013 in sites ranging from refugee camps to open football pitches and village halls. In 2015, with a grant from the African Leadership Initiative, she set up the annual Ubumuntu Arts Festival, bringing music, dance, art and theatre to the amphitheatre at the Kigali Genocide Memorial. It attracts about 5,000 people per day. \u201cThe shows run at 6pm, but people start arriving at 4pm,\u201d she laughs.\nHope Azeda set up the Ubumuntu Arts Festival, which is held at the Kigali Genocide Memorial in Rwanda Courtesy Tom Martin\n\u201cIt\u2019s still very challenging,\u201d she says. The memorial \u201cis not a place that people are accustomed to. It\u2019s very special in Rwandans\u2019 hearts because there are people buried in this space.\u201d\nAzeda chose it not only for its symbolic value, but also because the performances give Rwandans a way to engage with the conflict both individually and as a group, or through what she calls \u201cpublic introspection\u201d. \u201cThe set is well-dressed, the scenography is there\u2026 It crosses into your own internal conversation,\u201d she says.\nIndeed, spaces have become of utmost importance to Azeda\u2019s work, in part because of Rwanda\u2019s lack of dedicated spaces for theatre and performing arts, which has meant she has had to improvise. \u201cIn Uganda, I grew up in an environment where there was infrastructure. But when I went back to Rwanda, there\u2019s no infrastructure,\u201d she recalls. \u201cSo spaces become key characters in the works I create. Wherever I go, I make up a space. It has made me not become a slave to what I don\u2019t have, but a solution-based thinker. If this is where I am performing, where will the audience be? If we don\u2019t have a source of power, I bring the scenographer, the set designer, and we design that space as it is.\u201d\nAzeda is not only building a performing-arts network in the country, but is also helping to rebuild the country itself. Despite this role, she seems to make a point of not taking herself too seriously. When we meet, she says to look out for someone with \u201ca hairstyle like that of Minnie Mouse\u201d. During her panel at the CultureSummit in Abu Dhabi last week, she described the \u201cchild-like faith\u201d that motivated her to take on each new project. Her eloquent and impassioned argument in the power of conviction and straight-up gumption was met with spontaneous applause by the audience. Afterwards, as she moved through the conference atrium, people kept telling her how much she had inspired them.\nAzeda accepted the praise politely \u2013 I had the feeling she was used to this. After Abu Dhabi, she was heading on to Edinburgh, to participate in a conference about theatre, and she has been an artist-in-residence at the Institute for the Arts and Civic Dialogue in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a member of the Lincoln Centre Theatre Directors Lab in New York, and a member of the Aspen Global Leadership Network.\nNow married with two daughters, she was raised in Uganda to Rwandan parents who fled the country during the revolution before the war. Her family were scientists, and her mother and father worked their way out of a refugee camp into the house where she was born, as one of 11 children. \u201cI kept having to prove I was not on doom\u2019s path,\u201d she jokes of her decision to pursue a career in the arts.\n\u201cI joined a Catholic boarding school, where everyone had to dance ballet,\u201d she recalls. \u201cI didn\u2019t know there was a dancer in me, but discovered I was a performer.\u201d She went to Makerere University in Kampala, studying music, dance and drama, writing The Firestones of Sehustitwa while there.\nAzeda was so young when she wrote The Firestones of Sehustitwa that, when she was asked to perform it, she had to create a theatre company for the production. Mashirika Performing Arts is still going strong as a site for Azeda\u2019s work, as well as a production company supporting Rwandan and African playwrights and performers.\nFor the third edition, Ubumuntu Arts Festival took place in Kigali with performances from around the world. Last year\u2019s festival focused on the intersection of art and technology and how each can come together to advance a shared sense of humanity. Photo by Tom Martin\nThough her work has expanded beyond being a playwright, it hasn\u2019t moved on from its core belief in the power of theatre to represent and collectivise the trauma of the Rwandan experience in 1994. I ask how Africa\u2019s Hope answered the question of what happened.\n\u201cThe performance ends without the answer,\u201d she replies. \u201cBecause I use testimonies of children. The piece is about their hopes and dreams. This is what they went through, but what are their hopes? You deal with memory and then you deal with hope.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "May 25, 2014 mspanglerWeb Design\nIt\u2019s been a year of self-discovery, evaluation and education. Being a visual designer for more than 8 years just doesn\u2019t cut the mustard in the design world. Over the years I\u2019ve developed my skillset in one area but now the lines are blurred between UX and Visual Designer. Companies want a one in all person\u2026 UX, Visual Designer and Coder/Developer all rolled into one.\nHow can I be everything to everyone? It\u2019s that Jack-of-All-Trades, Master of None aspect.\nStart at the beginning?\nWhere would the starting point be? I thought coding would be a good starting point. All of the job post required some HTML & CSS. It seemed overwhelming at the start. I thought I needed to \u201cbe all that\u201d. How could I be, I\u2019m just a little fish in the big pond of code.\nI had to repeat to myself, \u201cStart a plan of action, learn something new every day\u201d. Repeat it the next day and add on something new. Build the skill on a day-to day basis. It was not easy, sometimes discouraging. I would review the lesson, do what was in the exercise to find the outcome just did not look the same as the example. What was happening? why was it not working? Overload!!\nI would review the lesson again. Ah, there it is a misplaced bracket to no tag. But the more I did the work, the easier it became to do the exercise or just recognize the mistake and make adjustments. Again, one day at a time, the plan was working.\nIt began with parts of a website, a navigation, content areas. Then, it was finally time to put it all together. I\u2019ve been able to hard code a website, Medical Center Options. The site was part of a sales pitch. The client did not have the funds at that time to sign on. I decided to use the design as a skill development exercise. The knowledge will help in the communication with coders.\nNow, I\u2019m on to learning the ins and outs of WordPress. This will enable me to give a client the CMS system so they can continue to update their own site.\nIt\u2019s great to have come this far and everyday I learn something new, something to help me start all over again.\nLearning Sources:\n: coding, education, skill set, web design, wordpress\nNice site Matthew! Good blog post too. \ud83d\ude42 Been there as well and I remember when the tangle of code actually started to make sense. It does get easier every day, yes indeed. Anyway, just thought I\u2019d say \u2018way to go\u2019. Your design work is awesome and I think your plan is a winner. Good luck.\nmspangler\nWell, still trying to figure out alot of my game plan. How to use what I know and give the client what they need. Then again, there is that thing about finding a client base.\nLinda, Thanks for your kind thoughts",

        "raw_content": "A Jury to Decide Damages after City Changed Laws to Keep Church Out\nA jury will decide the extent of damages done to the church Christian Assembly Rios de Agua Viva which was illegally burdened after the City of Burbank changed its laws to prevent the church from moving onto property it was set to purchase at 8100 South Parkside Avenue back in September 2010. Because the property was located in a commercial district, Burbank required the church to obtain a special use permit in order to use the property for religious purposes. But as the church was attempting to get its permit, the city shrewdly amended its law to prohibit non-tax generating groups from moving into \u201cC\u201d commercial districts.\nChristian Assembly Rios de Agua Viva was originally looking for a new home to support the church\u2019s growth. It had plans to renovate the property at 8100 S. Parkside avenue to accommodate 428 seats in a sanctuary, expand its youth outreach, and offer more classes. Due to the unlikelihood of the city ever granting the special use permit, the church eventually purchased a property in Oak Lawn in November 2015.\nAt the same time that the city was considering the church\u2019s special use permit in November 2010, it was working surreptitiously to amend the prior ordinance to require the commercial district property uses to be tax-generating, which in effect, would prevent the church from moving to the property because of its tax-exempt status as a 501(c)(3) organization.\nIn December 2010 the church filed a lawsuit in federal court against Burbank after seeing the proposed amendment the city was sneaking through in a newspaper notice. The lawsuit was based on Burbank\u2019s special use permit requirement, stating it was a violation of RLUIPA and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment; the prior ordinance permitted nonreligious assemblies, such as theaters, but not religious assemblies in the commercial district without that special use permit. After the case moved back and forth from federal to state and back to federal court, the city council denied the church\u2019s special use permit. In February 2017 Federal Judge Sara L. Ellis entered a summary judgement for liability against Burbank and in favor of the church and a jury will determine the amount of damages inflicted on the church.",

The Yearbook is published by RobecoSAM, a sustainability investment firm that manages one of the most comprehensive databases of financially material sustainability information in the world. RobecoSAM\u2019s assessment is used to determine the composition of the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World), which ranked Newmont as the mining industry\u2019s overall leader in 2015, 2016 and 2017.\n\u201cWe\u2019re honored to be recognized as a mining industry leader in sustainability by RobecoSAM,\u201d said Gary Goldberg, president and chief executive officer. \u201cMining is a long-term business and our ability to create value \u2013 which we\u2019ve done for nearly a century and plan to do far into the future \u2013 rests on our ability to operate responsibly. That means protecting the health and safety of our people, minimizing our impact on the environment throughout the mine life cycle, and sharing the wealth our business generates fairly with investors, employees, host communities and governments.\u201d\nThe Sustainability Yearbook has been published annually since 2004 and is based on a Corporate Sustainability Assessment which ranked 2,479 companies worldwide \u2013 including 67 mining companies \u2013 on 600 sustainability performance metrics for each company assessed.\nAris Prepoudis, RobecoSAM\u2019s CEO, said, \u201cI congratulate Newmont wholeheartedly for being awarded a Gold Class medal in The Sustainability Yearbook 2018. The companies included in the Yearbook are the world\u2019s most sustainable companies in their industry and are moving the environmental, social and governance (ESG) needle in ways that will help us realize the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.\u201d\nIn addition to being ranked last month as the world\u2019s leading miner in FORTUNE magazine\u2019s most admired companies list, Newmont was once again confirmed as a constituent of the FTSE4Good Index Series, with an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) rating of 95 out of 100. In December, Newmont was one of only two resource companies named in a ranking by the Drucker Institute of the top 250 best managed companies based on high scores in the areas of employee engagement and development, and social responsibility.\nMore information on Newmont's safety, economic, environmental and social performance can be found in the company's annual sustainability report, Beyond the Mine. The report conforms to the Global Reporting Initiative\u2019s G4 framework and is part of Newmont\u2019s ongoing obligations as a founding member of the International Council on Mining and Metals, as well as the Company\u2019s commitments under the United Nations' Global Compact and the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.\nNewmont Mining Corp.

Just a random collective of subscribed entities LIKEing the posts I (mostly) made. And that's not a Free Planet, that's an ideological dictatorship where (I convince myself that) I've won. People are fucked, and that's how it's gonna be forever. Therefore, the group was pointless and is now no more.

Rogoff, who was in Lee County, Fla., for the announcement. \"It's vitally important that we remove barriers to success by making transportation available wherever our veterans choose to live, work and receive care.\"\nFor example, Lee County, Fla., is receiving $1.4 million to fund information kiosks at locations that include a new Veterans Affairs Department outpatient clinic in Cape Coral, where veterans can readily obtain real-time information on rides and schedules, day or night.\nAlso, a $450,000 grant for the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority in Dayton, Ohio, will make it easier for returning and retired veterans and those who have disabilities to arrange for rides by phone, smartphone or on the Web, officials said. Dayton is home to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and 80,000 veterans, officials noted.\nRogoff said the transit administration received 81 eligible proposals requesting $41 million for this second round of the Veterans Transportation and Community Living Initiative grants, reflecting strong demand for the program. In fiscal 2011, FTA awarded $34.6 million for 55 veterans' transportation projects around the country.\nLaHood said the Federal Interagency Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility, which he chairs, is a partnership of federal departments working to better coordinate federal programs on behalf of people with disabilities, older adults and individuals with lower incomes.

        "raw_content": "Home | Opinion | Who says we are ready to go federal?\nWho says we are ready to go federal?\nmindanao goldstar daily Tuesday,March 13, 2018\tOpinion 121 Views\nA FEDERAL system presupposes the existence of regions or provinces that demonstrate a) that they are capable of, or already practice, a modicum of autonomy or self-government, b) that they desire to enter into an agreement with other regions to form a national government that shall oversee national/federal affairs while reserving to themselves the right to administer their own (state) affairs as component units of the republic\nIn other words, the urge to go federal must come from below, not from the top. To impose the federal system from the top would be a mistake\u2014especially if it is done by legislation or through a constituent assembly.\nIt would be an artificial creation, dictated unilaterally by presumptuous \u201crepresentatives\u201d without even ascertaining whether the people they represent desire it, are ready for it, and are actually clamoring for it.\nNot only that, it is important to determine whether both the people and the leaders have demonstrated capacity for self-governance or even just autonomy.\nThe spirit and practice of autonomy, of self-government and its processes, are essential for the success of a federal system. It was lack of this spirit and practice that drove Indonesia to abandon the federal system\u2014which they adopted at the outset of independence\u2014and replaced it with the unitary-presidential system.\nThus far, our federal proponents have not even checked to what extent our national policy of local autonomy has become institutionalized in local government units: regional, provincial, municipal, or barangay. So on what basis can they claim that Filipinos are ready for the federal system?\nWe have not even fulfilled the mandate to govern ourselves in our own small community, the barangay. It has been over a quarter of a century since the Local Government Code proclaimed this mandate. More than two decades and a half! We left the fulfillment of autonomy entirely to our village officials\u2014as if autonomy can be fulfilled by activating only one side of the equation.\nAutonomy requires that both the constituents and the officials (their public servants) be active participants in governing their jurisdiction.\nThis lopsided participation has resulted in the capture and manipulation of political power by the officials, many of whom are undereducated and misinformed. And that explains why the provisions of the Local Government Code of 1991 has been interpreted to their advantage. Touted as the \u201cautonomy law\u201d, this Code has had no real impact on governance and people empowerment where good government matters most: at the grassroots.\nIf any doubts this, just walk around and see the disorder, the filth, and the poverty in the neighborhoods\u2014even in parts of upscale or gated villages, where misery lives cheek-by-jowl with the abundance of their village\u2019s resources and the wealth of its residents.\nSince municipalities and cities are really just clusters of barangays, the demeanor of their barangays is reflected in the chaos and disorder in the city.\nLet\u2019s face it: The state of our local governments and the appearance of their jurisdictions\u2014and the never-ending reign of trapos and oligarchs in them\u2014are eloquent arguments against the presumptuous advocacy of the federal promoters.\nHow many of our city\u2019s barangays\u2014and the poor in them\u2014fester in a state of penury or neglect? Isn\u2019t this an indicator of how pathetic our society is in the art and craft of self-governance?\nEvery resident of a barangay is sovereign citizen, with a mandate to be actively involved in his local government\u2014as a member of its parliament, the Barangay Assembly. As such, everyone should check his status of involvement. Do you allow an oligarchy consisting of the chair and the kagawads to rule your jurisdiction without your active participation? If so, you are repudiating the barangay\u2019s unique form of direct democracy and parliamentary form of government.\nWithout your participation, the barangay\u2019s parliamentary government becomes inutile\u2014since the officials, your public servants, are carrying on as if they are integral to the presidential-representative form of government that operates at upper levels. The chairman in not a \u201clittle president\u201d or a \u201ccaptain.\u201d The sanggunian is not a \u201clittle congress\u201d, it is a board of directors.\nIf you let your barangay officials control or manipulate your community\u2019s affairs, you are turning its government into an oligarchy. And you are disempowering yourself and your neighbors, who are all officials of your local government\u2014as members of your local parliament (the Barangay Assembly) whose powers supersede the powers of all of your local officials.\nEveryone who think and behave like this is rendering himself unfit for consideration in a federal system\u2014which requires that its citizens be assertive and actively involved in government. More on this next.\n(Manny Valdehuesa Jr. is a former Unesco regional director for Asia-Pacific; secretary-general, Southeast Asia Publishers Association; director, Development Academy of Philippines; member, Philippine Mission to the UN; vice chair, Local Government Academy; awardee, PPI-Unicef outstanding columnist.

In preeclampsia, an increase in blood pressure is accompanied by protein in the urine (proteinuria). Without treatment, preeclampsia can suddenly cause seizures (eclampsia). Eclampsia occurs in 2 to 3% of women with severe preeclampsia.

I\u2019d like to spend hours listening to you, caressing you, kissing you. I\u2019d like to make love to you.\nROBERT I\u2019m fed up with always being in a hurry.\nAren\u2019t you ?\nARIANE Aren\u2019t I what ?\nROBERT Don\u2019t you wish we had a bit more time together ?\nARIANE Hurry up, I\u2019ve got to go.\nShe goes to the door. Her computer beeps, signalling the reception of an e-mail. Robert looks at her. She stays by the door, waiting for Robert to go out.\nE-MAIL I\u2019d like to hold you in my arms until you fall asleep. I\u2019d like to watch you sleep. I\u2019d like to wake in the morning to feel the touch of your lips on my sex. I\u2019d like to run my hand lightly over your body. I\u2019d like to go out with you. I\u2019d like to stay in with you. I\u2019d like to go on holiday, swim in the sea, eat in a restaurant with you. I\u2019d like to take your hands in mine, hold you tight in my arms, keep you close to me. I\u2019d like to uncover your body, your spirit, your soul. I\u2019d like to fall in love with you.\nClair is getting ready to go out. Robert is drinking whisky.\nROBERT Can we try this thing for the telly ?\nCLAIR What now, this evening ?\nROBERT Why not ?\nCLAIR Have you finished it ? I thought it wasn\u2019t ready.\nAriane is writing a text message.\nTEXT I don\u2019t know how to tell you.\nShe sighs, thinks, then erases what she has just written. She summons her concentration to start again.\nROBERT You don\u2019t want to do it now ?\nCLAIR I can\u2019t this evening, I\u2019ve got a dinner.\nROBERT You\u2019ve got a dinner ?\nCLAIR Yes.\nRobert discreetly reads a text message on his phone.\nTEXT I don\u2019t know how to tell you. I think I love you\u2026\nROBERT You don\u2019t want to give it a try ?\nCLAIR I haven\u2019t got time. And anyway it\u2019s better to do that sort of thing in the morning when you\u2019re fresh rather than after a day\u2019s work.\nROBERT You think I\u2019m fresh in the morning ?\nCLAIR Our ideas are clearer in the morning.\nROBERT You think my ideas aren\u2019t clear in the evening ?\nCLAIR I think in the evening you\u2019re usually half pissed and you get aggressive.\nROBERT So right now you think I\u2019m aggressive ?\nCLAIR Right now it\u2019s not my problem because I\u2019m going out. Goodbye, Robert.\nShe goes to the door.\nROBERT The truth is you want me to screw up this thing for the television.\nWe hear Ariane\u2019s voice, without seeing her.\nARIANE (off) He so needs to be loved. You can feel it, you can feel the need. It\u2019s fierce. Every second you spend with him you feel accused. There\u2019s this tacit reproach : \u00ab why don\u2019t you love me ? \u00bb\nLights up on Ariane in bed with Daniel in her flat.\nARIANE I don\u2019t want to belong to a man. I need to feel free. He doesn\u2019t understand that. His head understands but not his heart. Do you understand ?\nDANIEL Sounds reasonable.\nARIANE I\u2019m sorry, I\u2019m going on a bit. I haven\u2019t quite got over it.\nDANIEL No tacit reproach here.\nFrank is getting dressed. Elly is watching him.\nELLY I\u2019m looking for the man who\u2019ll be the father of my children. Does that scare you ?\nHe looks at his phone. There is a text message.\nTEXT I\u2019ll be a bit late. Clair\nFRANK Me ? I want four of them.\nELLY Four ?\nFRANK Alice, George, Henry and William.\nELLY A girl and three boys ?\nFRANK Preferably. Otherwise the names will sound odd.\nELLY But what if it doesn\u2019t go as planned ?\nFRANK I\u2019ll settle for Alan, Georgina, Henrietta and Wilhelmina if need be.\nELLY Wilhelmina sounds a bit funny.\nFRANK Then you\u2019ll just have to give me a William like I asked you to. Right, that\u2019s settled then. Any other questions ?\nHe is ready to leave.\nRobert addresses Clair\u2019s camera.\nROBERT We\u2019ve known it since Darwin. Einstein confirmed it for us. Without exception every single piece of research, great or small, continues to provide us with further proof : life is not simple. It\u2019s true at one end of the scale when we examine atoms and particles and it\u2019s true at the other when we come to consider the immensity of the cosmos. And it\u2019s also true at the more modest level of human life. Our interaction with others is subject to endless complexification. Our\u2026 Alright, I can see you there \u2013 I know it\u2019s simplistic, I know it\u2019s corny, I hate this shit, but that\u2019s what they want, isn\u2019t it ?\nCLAIR Oh yes, absolutely. No, it\u2019s just the choice of words that\u2026\nROBERT What words ?\nCLAIR \u00ab Interaction \u00bb, \u00ab complexification \u00bb.\nROBERT What\u2019s wrong with them ? It\u2019s perfectly good English. \u00ab Complexification \u00bb means what it says.\nCLAIR Alright, I didn\u2019t say anything.\nROBERT What have you got against \u00ab complexification \u00bb ?",

Its elegant historic centre is endowed with some of the country's finest colonial churches and mansions, many of which have been turned into museums or galleries.\nThe second largest city in Peru, Arequipa is one of the country's most attractive cities, situated among white-capped volcanic peaks; however, Peruvians will tell you that a conceited manner of self-importance pervades the atmosphere of Arequipa, earning the inhabitants a reputation for snootiness towards the rest of their countrymen. Of course, travellers may find that the pride of the locals is fully justified! A strong and very tangible rivalry exists between the capital city of Lima and Arequipa.\nThe beautiful Plaza de Armas, with its gardens and central fountain, is the focus of urban life and evening social activities, framed by impressive colonial arcades and architecture and the elegant white fa\u00e7ade of the huge cathedral. One of the city's highlights is the remarkable Santa Catalina Convent, a complex enclosing a complete city within a city, and one of the country's most fascinating colonial religious buildings.\nBesides the architecture and museums, the countryside around Arequipa holds many attractions for the visitor, including the relatively easy climb up the El Misti volcano. The Colca Valley offers superb landscapes, with agricultural terraces and snow-covered mountains, villages with narrow streets and ornate churches, and the dizzying Colca Canyon, twice as deep as the Grand Canyon and an excellent place to see the giant condors.",

        "raw_content": "Soon after the coming of the railway to Hampton Court Station, in 1849, a large tract of land in East Molesey was purchased for development by a Hampton lawyer named Francis Jackson Kent. Palace Road was cut across this estate in 1850, and a plot of land close by was conveyed by Kent to Charles Rowlls, the owner of Kingston Brewery, on which he built an inn, which was opened in 1853.\nThe house, in a rather flamboyant Victorian Gothic style typical of much nineteenth century public house architecture, was first called the \"Prince of Wales and Railway Hotel\". The latter part of the name, however, was soon dropped, although it appears as just the \"Railway Hotel\" on the twenty-five inch Ordnance Map of 1868.\nIn 1854, soon after the Prince of Wales had been opened, the brewery was purchased by Mr. W.F. Hodgson [122], and as Hodgson's Kingston Brewery was well-known for the next hundred years. Rowlls apparently still remained the owner of the inn until 1860, when this and other property was also acquired by Hodgson [123]. Hodgson's business was later acquired by the Courage combine, who are the present owners.\nLicensees in the nineteenth century:-\n1855 - George Quiddington\n1859 - George Royer\n1866 - David Steers\n1871 - Walter Charles Birdsey\n1876 - H.W. Goodered\n1882 - George Brown\nNotes of some landlords:-\nDAVID STEERS: Had his license withdrawn in 1869 after being convicted of a breach of the law. It was restored in the following year with the advice from the magistracy that he should \"be a little more particular in future\" [124].\nWILLIAM BIRDSEY: Became insolvent in 1873, and for sometime the license was transferred to the trustees in bankruptcy [125].\nGEORGE BROWN: Perhaps the most colourful of the landlords. He had been one of the old prize-fighting pugilists, and entered the catering business first of all by opening a refreshment tent on the racecourses. His booth at the races on Molesey Hurst was said to be a great institution. The advertisement over the top of which declared: \"Everything iced but the welcome\" [126].",

        "raw_content": "Our time in Juquila has been one of struggle and success. The clinic has helped hundreds of people from several villages, but we haven\u2019t seen the fruit of a new spiritual awakening in Juquila. Eunice and I have always believed in our plan to evangelize Juquila knowing that it was going to take years. Through the months we have struggled with doubt about our plan, was it going too slow? But that night, sitting with Tadeo, God showed me that His love is being shown, shared and received. As I close in on ten years in the field I have seen churches form in small indigenous villages, but all are devoid of young adult males. They are the life blood to a healthy, growing and reproducing indigenous church. They are also the hardest to reach. If a young church is filled with only women and children the new religion is for women and children exclusively. I have heard many men over the years say that church is fine for their wives but they don\u2019t need anything from that feminine God. Tadeo shared with me that night that he trusts me to guide him, and show him a Godly path. Eunice and I have suffered through time and doubt, but we are now seeing signs of fruit, of progress. I am so thankful that we are given the time needed to develop relationships that will be the fertile soil for a healthy church in Juquila. Each one of you who read this letter are a part of the work going on here. God is good and to Him be the glory.\nWe are so excited to see you in these coming months. We are ready for some time to share and be encouraged by you. We are ready to recharge our batteries. Please pray for our travel plans and our scheduling while in the U.S. Also, pray for Ian\u2019s Mexican passport, we have had a difficult time getting it (I will explain when we meet in person). There is one more note of business, we are joining a mission agency called CTEN (commission to every nation). They will help with our tax receipts and receive all of our support. They have a website www.cten.org where you will soon be able to donate to our ministry online. We are in the process of getting everything setup and hope to have everything fully functional by August. Feel free to check out the website and see what they are all about. As for us we will be doing what we have always done. Thank you all for your support and we look forward to seeing you soon. God bless us all!\nUntil we see one another again,",

We Canadians have used them for more than 80 years, and I understand that they are coming into use in the United States, especially in fine woodworking, for outdoor deckbuilding, and on recreational vehicles and boat hardware. The screwhead has a square recess which accepts one of several different size square driver bits. This allows you to drive a screw from start to finish with one hand, as the screwdriver's square bit applies pressure evenly across the entire screwhead.

Returning after 17 years: I'm just getting back into model railroading after a 17-year gap. Can you explain the difference between HO code 83 and code 100 rail, and should I scrap all my. brass track and turnouts and go with nickel-silver? MICHAEL S. POLASHOCK PADUCAH, KY. A. Rail code in any scale refers to its height in thousandths of an inch, hence code 100 is .100\" and code 83 is .083\" tall. In HO scale, code 83 is closer in scale size to the most common mainline rail used in North America, so it's very popular with advanced modelers and its smaller size makes the models look more massive. .

In Canada, Robertson metric screwdrivers are color c6ded as follows: no. 4, yellow; no.,6, green; no. 8; red; and no. 10, black. - Stive Lucas, IngersoH, Ont. Nickel-silver oxide conducts elec- tricity whereas brass oxide does not, so the nickel-silver rail is preferable because it doesn't need to be cleaned as often. Of course dust rediains a problem with either type of rail. The nickelsilver rail is about the same hardness as brass and it's just as easy to solder. The choice of scrapping the old brass track depends upon your railroad's finances. Manymodelers recycle the brass track into industrial spurs and car storage tracks where locomotives do not run. Once it's painted, weathered; and ballasted the older brass track looks just fine. -Jim Hediger, senior editor .

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Art \u00bb Shifting Focus\nby Ben Kelly on Jul 8, 2013 in Art\nI will never forget the opening words of my college drawing instructor. \u201cAnyone can draw. What I hope to teach you is how to see.\u201d Perception is something we often take for granted, yet it is pivotal to our everyday lives. When it comes to the arts a picture is only worth a thousand words if there are at least a thousand words that can be said about it. There must be a context into which it is seated. Out of that context, there must be a point of focus for our perception to work at all.\nTo help understand what I mean by this let\u2019s take a moment and understand how the human eye works when it focuses on something in our field of vision. Innately, the eye focuses in on one thing with detail, forcing the rest into peripheral vision. For example, when I look at the cup of collected pens and pencils on my desk I see clearly one pencil and all the rest are suggestive images that I interpret as being there, but I don\u2019t focus on them. If I look at the pen beside the pencil, it becomes the center of focus and the pencil becomes a suggestive object in my peripheral vision.\nSo why do I choose to see the pencil and not the pen? There is no detailed explanation for that which will cover every individual. You might have seen the pen first. What we both have in common was that we saw something of importance, something we chose to focus our attention on. As a rule of thumb you might say that in order to see something we must chose to not see something else; at least clearly.\nWhat does this have to do with art? When the artist sits down to a composition they take on the role of human eye and choose a point of focus for the viewer. They must show the viewer what is important. What are we looking at? Why are we looking? What the artist chooses to show us and why is an ethical question in its own right but I feel that art is often misrepresented because the viewers are unclear about what it is they are supposed to see. Too much photo-realism and fancy digital tricks can cheat us of the necessary to see. By choosing to look at everything, we see nothing.\nThis is more than just a discussion of techniques used. It is also a fundamental part of making true art. Let me give you an example; recently I\u2019ve come across a form of documentation called \u201cPhotovoice.\u201d Essentially a Photovoice project allows an individual to show a researcher, or a broader audience, a literal snapshot of something experienced similar to photojournalism. The most pointed example I can recall were images shown by a group of individuals who lived their lives with the help of a wheelchair. Through their eyes we were granted an everyday view of people\u2019s inconsiderate actions toward those who live their lives by a different set of rules, not by choice but by circumstance.\nThe Photovoice images changed our point of view. However in the Photovoice documents there was a written piece that gave context to the images and allowed us to focus in. But if we do not want to or cannot include the written context, then it must be added by the artist.\nHere we come back to the point of focus and the periphery. The context is there, but it is not as clear as what we are focusing on. Artists must learn what part of an image tells the story and focus on that. When an artist chooses to focus on something they turn it from an object into a subject, like an author choosing a narrator or character to follow through the story. This character is important because they will be the gateway through which the viewer enters the scene. A worn shoe filled with holes can be filled with as much character as Da Vinci\u2019s sketches of Italian commoners as long as there is an empathetic connection between two world-weary souls. (Or maybe soles.) What does it have to say? What did the artist hear or see? The subject of the piece had to reveal it to them first.\nThe entry point to a piece of art, therefore, is limited only to the artist\u2019s ability to see and then to help the viewer focus on the subject of the piece. The subject is the focal point, the character at the start through which the image reveals its story. Without that, a viewer is lost on the other side with no gateway to let them in to a revelation of overlooked value. The subject might be one character or it might be many. It all depends on the artist.",

        "title": "Harold Charles, From Aviation Fan to Turks & Caicos Airport Namesake",
        "raw_content": "Posted by Lia on July 30, 2018\n| Turks and Caicos Islands\nHis story begins in Haiti, as one of 13 children. Even then, Harold Charles \u2014 an esteemed Turks & Caicos businessman and philanthropist \u2014 knew what he wanted to do with his life. Back then, Harold was obsessed with aviation. He dreamed of one day becoming a pilot, but growing up in a country known for its extreme poverty, there was no obvious pathway to pursuing his dream job \u2014 until 1974.\nThat was the year Harold came to the Turks & Caicos in search of opportunity. And indeed, an opportunity appeared. Harold was given the chance to clean planes for a living, an offer that he graciously accepted. And so began his climb up the ladder in the Turks & Caicos world of aviation.\nHarold went from cleaner to pilot, and from pilot to eventually owning the airline for which he once worked. He went on to found the airline Sky King, which became the leading carrier in TCI. The decision to come to the Turks & Caicos and accept that plane cleaning job spurred decades of entrepreneurship, and beyond that, giving back to the community that gave him the opportunity to live out his dream.\nWe chatted with Harold to learn more about how he went from an aviation-obsessed young man cleaning planes for a living, to a commercial pilot, to the owner of a Turks & Caicos airline. And it only got better. After more than three decades of living and working in the Turks & Caicos, Harold was honored in the best way possible for a man who has spent most of his life working in the aviation industry: An airport was named after him. Yes, there\u2019s a Harold Charles International Airport in the Turks & Caicos.\nWatch: Terry Meneley Interviews Harold Charles\nAt National Colony Realty, we love putting the spotlight on the special people who live in the Turks & Caicos.

        "raw_content": "It may have started as a slight throbbing sensation in your ears, but now there is a constant ringing. Or maybe you hear a \"whoosh\" sound every time your heart beats. When these hearing issues don't go away, you may be facing tinnitus. Nearly 20 percent of the people in the U.S. experience tinnitus, says the Hearing Health Foundation. When this health issue begins to disrupt your life. it's time to get help. Here is how tinnitus becomes a problem and what help is available to you:\nMany people experience tinnitus at some time in their lives. You walk by loud construction equipment or go to a concert and for several minutes, you have a pulsing sensation in your ears. Eventually, it goes away and your hearing is normal again. This is acute tinnitus and is your ear's natural response to loud noises.\nChronic tinnitus sufferers have pulsing or ringing in their ears constantly. It can range from a faint sound to one that can't be ignored and affects your ability to hear other sounds or have a conversation with someone. Some chronic forms can be treated. The tinnitus treatment for others can only reduce the symptoms.\nWhat Causes the Ringing in Your Ears?\nOne cause of chronic tinnitus is a change in the bones in your ear. These are normally flexible and vibrate when a sound reaches them. Damage to these bones that makes them more rigid resulting in a ringing sensation when they vibrate. This can be due to:\nchanges in bone structure from aging\ndamage to the ear drums or bones from illness or injury\nan abnormal bone growth in the ear\na neurological condition affecting the nerve-to-brain connection in the ear\nOther causes are due to issues with the muscles or bone surrounding your ears. This includes:\nspasms in your neck muscles\ninflammation of the Eustachian tubes\nfractures of the bone around the ears\nCurrent Treatment of Tinnitus\nBecause tinnitus can be the cause of a great deal of anxiety, your doctor may recommend treating the psychological factors as well as the medical causes. You may have difficulty sleeping or being in social situations because of the ringing in your ears. Helping you with the anxiety becomes an important part of your treatment.\nTreating the Medical Causes\nsurgical repair of bone fractures in or around the ear\nremoval of tumors or abnormal bone growth\ntreatment of ear infections with antibiotics\npharmaceutical treatment of high blood pressure and thyroid issues\nTreating the Anxiety Caused by Chronic Tinnitus\nuse of antidepressants to reduce anxiety\nmedication for sleep disorders\nhypnosis and meditation techniques to help you sleep\nIf any ringing or pulsing in your ears lasts more than a day, see a doctor. When detected early, the chronic form of tinnitus can be prevented from getting much worse.

        "title": "MPR: Remembering Korea: B Company from Duluth",
        "raw_content": "Remembering Korea: B Company from Duluth (story audio)\nB Company on Superior Street\nThe McKeevers\nCouture and Morrissey today\nAmerican Radio Works, \"Korea: The Unfinished War\"\nKorean War Education Foundation\nThe Korean War Project\nChosin Reservoir Web site\nRemembering Korea: B Company from Duluth\nIn August 1950, the 227 men of B Company marched through downtown Duluth to the train station. They were Marine reserves on their way to the Korean War. Within weeks, half of them would be trapped in the Korean mountains. (Photo: Duluth News-Tribune)\nIt was the summer of 1950, and the Korean War had just started. The 227 men in B Company made the front page of the Duluth paper. They were Marine Reserves, and they had been called up for active duty. They marched through the middle of downtown Duluth on their way to the train station. One month later, half of them were in combat. Before the war ended, 80 percent of the men in B Company were wounded or injured, and 10 of them were dead. July 27 is the 50th anniversary of the end of the Korean War, and the surviving members of B Company are getting ready to unveil a monument on the shore of Lake Superior. They say their war has been forgotten by most Americans.\nDuluth, Minn. \u2014 Jim Morrissey still calls himself a jarhead, and he still wears a Marine Corps haircut. He's 73, and his back has bent a little over the years. But he's wearing brand new tennis shoes, and it's easy to picture him teaching gym or maybe science to a classroom of elementary kids. In fact, that is exactly what he did until he retired. He still works as a substitute teacher.\nBut now he's in the basement of his house in Duluth. His best pal Jerry Couture is with him, and they are looking at a dozen framed photographs hanging on the wall.\nJerry Couture and Jim Morrissey in Korea\n\"These were taken in Korea,\" Morrissey says, pointing at pictures of groups of men in uniform.\n\"This is kind of a history of Jerry and I, here,\" he says, pointing at a row of three black and white photos. \"This was at (Camp) Pendleton just before we shipped over. This was in Korea. We'd just come off a hill. And then this was after the war, up at my brother's cabin.\"\nThat photo shows two young men with their shirts off. They're each holding a beer, and their arms are draped around each others' shoulders. They are handsome, and well-built, and smiling.\nJim Morrissey and Jerry Couture grew up together in Duluth, and they've been buddies all these years.\n\"Since we were about 8 years old,\" Morrissey says. \"We used to play cowboys and Indians together.\"\n\"We had a lot of fun,\" Jerry Couture says. \"Skiing, and playing hockey -- shinny hockey in the street -- and stuff like that, like all kids do.\"\nJim and Jerry at the cabin\nIn August 1950, they were together in B Company. Jerry Couture was 19 and Jim Morrissey was 20. The Korean War was still new, and only their families knew they'd been called up.\nB Company created a bit of a stir marching through downtown Duluth.\n\"We had to dodge around all these cars,\" Couture says with a chuckle. \"And people were amazed to see all these Marines marching down the street. Three platoons. We headed east down Superior Street, down to the depot.\"\n\"In the middle of the day when nobody expected it,\" Morrissey says.\nThere was no band. Just a sergeant calling out cadence.\n\"We did pretty good,\" Jerry Couture says.\n\"Yeah we did,\" says Jim Morrissey, with a smile and a shake of his head.\n\"We were all just young kids, all charged up, and we didn't know what was coming next,\" Morrissey says. \"I think the bulk of us were between 17 and 20. It was just basically a bunch of guys -- high school kids, and dads. You know, just ordinary guys.\"\nSome of the men in B Company were older. They had served in World War II and been wounded.\n\"Some were in the Navy, and some were in the Marines,\" Jerry Couture says. \"They joined the reserve just to make some extra money. They didn't think they'd end up in war again. And a lot of them had to go to war twice.\"\nA \"Police Action\" in Korea\nWhen World War II was drawing to an end, the Cold War was beginning. Korea was part of a territorial chess game between the United States and the Soviet Union. The two superpowers decided to split Korea.\nIn the north, the Soviets set up a communist dictatorship. In the south, the United States organized a government. For several years, the two Koreas made threats against each other. Then, in the summer of 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea.\nNorth Korean troops swept over the entire peninsula in a matter of weeks. The United States -- and the United Nations -- came in on the side of South Korea.\nMass in the mountains\nWhen the men of B Company got to Korea, the tide was turning. U.S. troops pushed the North Koreans back past the \"38th Parallel\" - the line that separates the North and the South. And then the U.S. troops kept going. They pushed the North Koreans closer and closer to the border with China.\nThe Chinese warned the U.S. not to move into North Korea, but Gen. Douglas MacArthur decided to take all of Korea before the Chinese could join the war. MacArthur didn't know it, or he chose to ignore it, but Chinese troops had already quietly crossed into North Korea -- perhaps hundreds of thousands of them. The Chinese army set a giant trap for the American troops.\nJerry Couture and Jim Morrissey marched into the trap.\nSurrounded at Chosin\nIt was November 1950. About 15,000 Marines were moving north toward the Chinese border. They were stretched out over 50 miles of road.\n\"There's only one road going north,\" Jerry Couture says.\n\"The road wasn't as wide as this living room,\" Jim Morrissey says. \"And you had a straight cliff going this way, and a straight drop-off going that way.\"\nThe Chinese troops were in the hills above the road. They descended on the Americans near the Chosin Reservoir. Historians debate how many Chinese soldiers there were, but this much is sure -- the Americans were hugely outnumbered.\nOn the march in North Korea\nSome researchers estimate the number of Chinese soldiers in the hills at 60,000. Others say the Chinese force was more than 100,000 strong.\n\"They had us encircled,\" Jim Morrissey says.\nThe Chinese often attacked at night to avoid taking fire from American airplanes.\n\"All these signal horns and bugles blowing and screaming and hollering and whistles,\" Morrissey says. \"It was just like an anthill exploding. I mean, you could shoot blindfolded.\"\nThe weather was as brutal as the fighting. It snowed, the wind blew, and the temperature dropped to 30 degrees below zero. But the Marines had no choice. They had to fight their way 70 miles back to the coast. For food, they chiseled away at frozen baked beans with their bayonets. For water, they ate snow. American airplanes flew in from the coast and dropped them ammunition.\nIt took the Marines two weeks to battle their way out of the mountains.\nAt one point, somebody had to rescue the 200 men in Fox Company. The men of Fox Company had held a hill against thousands of Chinese soldiers. By holding onto the hill, Fox Company prevented the Chinese from taking the road and cutting off the escape route for thousands of Marines. But Fox Company ended up surrounded. After five days of fighting, only about half of the 200 men in Fox Company could still walk.\nSo Jerry Couture and Jim Morrissey went behind Chinese lines to bring Fox Company out. There were 500 Marines on the rescue team. They tromped through knee deep snow in single file as quietly as they could. They marched right through the Chinese lines into enemy territory in the dark.\nThe weather got worse as they marched.\n\"Forty below. Wind howling,\" Jim Morrissey says. \"At times you couldn't see the guy in front of you.\"\n\"We had quite a few wounded,\" Jerry Couture says. \"If we had a wounded guy, it would take four guys to carry him in that snow. And we took our dead with us.\"\nSome of the Marines died the first night out. Morrissey says they were resting on a snowy ridge, and the Chinese attacked.\n\"The next morning we got on top of this one knoll, and there the gooks were down below us,\" Morrissey says, referring to the enemy the way many U.S. soldiers did at the time.\n\"Everybody was so doggone mad from the night before,\" Morrissey says, \"we saw all these gooks out in the open wandering around down there, and we just had a turkey shoot. We just sat down in the snow. Man, we laid them out.\"\nYou'd say, 'We're going to beat them so our kids don't have to go through the same thing.' That's the basic reason we were over there.\n- Jim Morrissey\nThe Chinese counterattacked, and the Marines fought a running battle for two days, but they got to Fox Company.\nJerry Couture says they were shocked by what they found. The men of Fox Company were dug in on top of a hill.\n\"They had bunkers made out of bodies -- Chinese bodies,\" Couture says. \"They piled them up like cord wood and that was their bunkers.\"\n\"There wasn't a tree on that hill that wasn't half sawed apart with bullets,\" Jim Morrissey says.\nThe remaining men of Fox Company and their rescuers gathered up dozens of dead and wounded Marines and slogged their way back toward the road. Chinese troops followed close behind.\nA true buddy\nJim Morrissey says Jerry Couture saved his life on that march. Morrissey's feet got so frostbitten that he couldn't walk.\n\"So I told the guys, 'I've had it. I'm just going to stay here and take as many as I can with me.'\"\nMorrissey says he sat down in the snow.\n\"There was a moon that night, and I could see the ridge,\" he remembers. \"I figured as soon as they start coming over the ridge, I can pick them off until I'm out of ammo.\"\nMorrissey pauses and smiles at his friend.\n\"Pretty soon I hear his voice,\" he says, pointing at Couture. \"'Where's that so-and-so Morrissey?'\"\nOn that frigid hillside, Jim Morrissey told Jerry Couture his plan. Morrissey would sit in the snow and wait for the Chinese. Morrissey says Couture cursed and him and said, \"No you're not. You're coming out.\"\n\"So he picks me up,\" Morrissey says, \"and he was my crutch getting back down to the road.\"\nThey made it to the road, and then they hiked to the Marine camp.\n\"When they pulled my boots off all my toes were black,\" Morrissey says. \"Part of my heels were gone. They flew me over to Japan, and I was there for a couple, three weeks. They were going to send me home, and I says, 'I don't want to go home. All my buddies are over there.'\"\nJim Morrissey's assault squad\nThey sent him back to Korea as soon as his feet healed.\nWhile Jim Morrissey was recovering in Japan, Jerry Couture and thousands of other Marines fought their way out of the Korean mountains, back to the coast.\nWithin a few weeks, the two friends from Duluth met up again on the battlefield. They fought together for another three months. Then a round from a machine gun tore off part of Jim Morrissey's left hand, and he was sent back to the States.\nJerry Couture finished his one-year tour of duty in Korea, and then he came home, too.\nThat was more than 50 years ago. These days, Jim Morrissey and Jerry Couture cross-country ski together. They have the same photographs of B Company hanging on their walls, and sometimes they share souvenirs from the war.\n\"I got something for you, Jerry,\" Morrissey says as he fishes out a cardboard box the size of cell phone and hands it to Couture.\n\"This is 53 years in the doing,\" Morrissey says. \"It's time for him to have it.\"\nJerry Couture laughs and gives the box a gentle shake.\n\"Can I guess?\" Couture asks. \"The pipe?\"\nI'd never want to go through it again, but I wouldn't trade a million dollars for what I went through.\n- Jerry Couture\nCouture opens the box and takes out a battered pipe. It's held together with filthy medical tape.\n\"Oh for God's sake,\" Couture says with a hoot.\n\"We shared it,\" Morrissey says. He's laughing, too. \"Back and forth. That pipe went all through Korea with us.\"\n\"I think I got it off a dead Marine,\" Couture says.\n\"We had to tape it together,\" Morrissey says.\nThey don't smoke it any more.\n\"No! You wouldn't dare,\" Morrissey says with another laugh. \"But it tasted like heaven then, didn't it?\"\n\"I'm going to put that in Marine Corps Headquarters,\" Jerry Couture says as he puts the pipe back in its box.\n\"Marine Corps Headquarters\" is next door to Jerry Couture's house. His neighbor's house burned down a few years ago, and Couture bought what was left. He cleaned it up, painted it, and put up some paneling.\n\"I started putting all our Marine stuff in there - Marine flags, and stuff guys send me,\" Couture says. \"So a bunch of Marines come over and they call it Marine Corps Headquarters. We meet over there once in a while and have coffee and BS.\"\nThese guys have a lot of stories from Korea. They've told a few of them to their wives. But there's a lot they don't talk about. Jim Morrissey has five kids, and he hasn't told them any war stories.\n\"I just let them lead their lives and I lead mine, and I don't think they have to know,\" Morrissey says. \"They know a few of the things. They've read some stories that have been out in the paper, and things like that. But basically, the rough stuff, I've never shared with them. It's best forgotten. There's things that you'll never forget, but what good does it do to bring it back up again?\"\nMorrissey says he was fighting in Korea for his kids -- years before they were born.\n\"We're going to beat them so our kids don't have to go through the same thing,\" Morrissey remembers thinking at the time.\nWhen he looks back, he's sure it was the right thing to do.\nThe \"Frozen Chosin\"\n\"No question,\" he says. \"Absolutely. I'd do it again. So would Jerry.\"\nJerry Couture nods in agreement.\n\"I'd never want to go through it again,\" Couture says, \"but I wouldn't trade a million dollars for what I went through. It was a heck of an experience for a 19-year-old.\"\nCouture says sometimes the experience haunts him. He still thinks about a guy from Duluth he really liked. They were in the mountains in Korea, and they were freezing. They got their hands on a parachute, so they cut it up to make scarves.\nCouture made a white scarf. His friend made a red one.\n\"We were like 40 feet apart, and it was snowing like hell,\" Couture says, his voice dropping low. \"I could see him shooting the machine gun. I could see his scarf, and told him to take it off. He didn't do it. So we were attacking a bunker, and he got hit pretty bad by a Thompson submachine gun. I went over to him, and he was dead.\"\nCouture's unit got orders to attack the bunker and take prisoners.\n\"Well, the first guy that came out had a Thompson submachine gun,\" Couture says. \"I went kind of nuts. He had a big smile on his face, and I smashed him in the face with my M1 (rifle). Next one come out, and he had a big smile. I found out later that when they smile like that, they're scared to death. So I grabbed him and I threw him down and took a clip of M1 and jammed it in his mouth until they finally pulled me off of him. I just kind of lost it there for a minute, because of my buddy.\"\nJerry Couture still visits his buddy's grave in Duluth.\n\"He's buried up here at Calvary,\" Couture says. \"Every Memorial Day I go up there and make sure he's got a flag, and clean it up.\"\nRaffle for B Company\nIt's a hot, sunny afternoon and Jerry Couture and Jim Morrissey sit at a folding table in the parking lot outside a grocery store in Duluth. They're wearing wrap-around sunglasses and Marine Corps ballcaps. They're selling raffle tickets to raise money for B Company - their Marine reserve unit that went to Korea.\nA brand new Hyundai is parked next to them. That's the grand prize.\nThe veterans of B Company are building a memorial on the Lakewalk in Duluth. Jerry Couture says the centerpiece of the memorial will be a list of the 10 men from B Company who died in Korea.\nB Company reunion in 2000\n\"They were 18 or 19 when they were killed,\" he says. \"We're in our 70s. We had a nice family, a good life, and they had nothing. They gave their life for our country. So we can never forget them. That's why we want to build this memorial so people can read their name, where they're from, and what they did.\"\nThe men of B Company will dedicate their memorial at the end of August.\nThey'll hold a reunion in Duluth that weekend. They've been getting together every five years, but some of them are getting too old to travel.\nThey say this will be the last reunion for B Company from Duluth.",

        "raw_content": "Article by Lesley Wimbush. Photographs courtesy of manufacturers.\nBack in 1979, a Hewlett-Packard employee named Katherine Lawrence gave a presentation at a Conference of the Women\u2019s Institute for Freedom of the Press. Describing the invisible barriers through which frustrated women can see elite positions within their companies, but are prevented from reaching them, she came up with the phrase \u201cglass ceiling\u201d.\nIt\u2019s a nice metaphor, but it\u2019s also very real. Despite government incentives and requirements to groom more women for top spots, the climb up the corporate ladder is a slow one.\nA recent New York Times story illustrates just how imbalanced the power hierarchy remains, when women directors of large U.S. corporations are outnumbered four to one\u2026 just by men named John.\nAnd of course, rarely is it more apparent than in the automotive sector, that bristling bastion of power and masculinity.\nBut while the glass ceiling is far from dissolving, there are those who have risen above it through undeniable talent and sheer determination.\nCEO, General Motors\nIt was almost a foregone conclusion that Mary Barra would work with General Motors in some capacity.\nMary Barra grew up in a Detroit suburb, the daughter of a Pontiac tool-and-die maker in a neighbourhood where everyone\u2019s dad also worked for GM. An excellent student, she went on to Kettering University (once the General Motors Institute), where she attended a co-operative trade school, on a scholarship paid for by Pontiac.\nAfter putting in her time in a metal-stamping plant, in 1985 Barra became a full-time Pontiac quality-control inspector, then later obtained her MBA at Stanford.\nHer cool, analytical mind and warm demeanour made her a good choice as a company liaison during plant employee labour relations, where she displayed a natural ability to communicate at every level.\nSoon, she was put in charge of her own plant, the Detroit-Hamtramck assembly factory, one of the first robotically automated, and chronically disorganized since its 1985 opening. Re-organizing the budget, acquainting herself with the people on the plant floor and addressing the technology issues plaguing the new robotics, Barra was instrumental in the plant\u2019s earning a J.D. Power quality award only two years later.\nRising up through the GM corporate ranks, Barra eventually became executive director of manufacturing engineering, and was later named head of human resources through GM\u2019s 2009 restructuring during the economic meltdown.\nShe worked closely with then CEO Ed Whitacre throughout the restructuring, where he credited her with creating the order, and the streamlining necessary for the company\u2019s survival.\nWhen Akers departed in 2013, Barra was appointed the new CEO of General Motors.\nIt must have been a bittersweet victory. Just two weeks after she became the first female CEO of a Big Three automaker, the faulty ignition switch crisis landed directly in her lap. Held to account for a disaster linked to at least 21 deaths, and waves of some 30 million vehicle recalls later, Barra has remained poised and professional while acknowledging GM\u2019s responsibility to the victims.\nWhile many are convinced that General Motors knew of the faulty switches and threw Barra \u201cunder the bus\u201d, the majority are impressed with Barra\u2019s head-on approach to the situation, showing impressive leadership and compassion under enormous pressure.\nIt\u2019s certainly well on its way to recovery after the 2009 bankruptcy, with record sales and investing billions back into the economy.\nDespite the communication problems inherent to a gigantic corporation with cumbersome layers of bureaucracy, Barra is confident that GM will regain public trust.\nDr. Annette Winkler\nCEO, Smart Automobile\nWhen Daimler promoted Dr. Annette Winkler to CEO of its Smart brand, it not only signified a big shift in the male-dominated auto industry, it was a sign that Germany was finally changing its antiquated, traditional views on gender equality.\nFor women in the industry, it\u2019s been a long struggle to break through that proverbial glass ceiling.\nYet, mention the significance of her achievement to Dr. Winkler, and she brushes it aside with characteristic humility \u2013 preferring to focus on the role rather than her unusual position.\n\u201cThe less I think about it, the more I can do for the young women (coming up through the ranks) just by being there, being present.\u201d\nWhere many women executives fought their way to the top with aggression, proving they were tougher than their male counterparts \u2013 Dr. Winkler is warm and gracious, enquiring after our health and even offering up refreshments.\nA native of Germany, Dr. Winkler earned her Ph.D. in Business Administration. From 1984 to 1995, she was the director of a construction company \u2013 another non-traditional industry for a woman in management.\nIn 1995, Winkler began her career with Daimler when she was appointed Head of Public Relations and Communications with Mercedes-Benz in Stuttgart. Moving up through the ranks, she became CEO of DaimlerChrysler in Brussels, then VP of Global Business Management & Wholesale Europe in 2006. In 2010, Dr. Winkler was appointed CEO of Smart.\nIt\u2019s a brand she very obviously believes in. She\u2019s effusive in her support of the Smart as a lifestyle choice, its commitment to advanced technology like organic solar cells and its promotion of alternatives to ownership such as car sharing and attractive lease options, which have resulted a recent uptick in North American sales.\nVice President, Nissan Southeast Region, Nissan North America\nJudy Wheeler is no stranger to the automotive business, having worn many hats throughout her career, including time spent in Sales and Service, Marketing and Communications, International Sales and Business Development. But one of the most significant highlights was being appointed the youngest Director of Sales, with the second largest region during her years at Chrysler. She has several degrees, including a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, a Masters in Business Management and is a graduate of the Harvard Business School Executive Management program. Ms. Wheeler has more than 26 years\u2019 experience in the automotive industry.\nShe\u2019s one busy lady, but graciously sat with us for a few questions in Toronto last year.\nLW: During your years as a woman executive at the top level, have you seen any changes in the industry when it comes to advancement?\nJW: I started right out of university, and there\u2019s been a lot of changes. I can remember going to a meeting for district managers, and there\u2019d be five women in a group of 400 men.\nSo I think it\u2019s starting to change, and I love to see that and I know for the Nissan-Renault Alliance, we take diversity very seriously. We put plans in place to make sure that we have a diverse portfolio that represents our country. We make sure that our people are properly educated, that they\u2019re mentored, that they get the opportunities.\nLW: When you were with Chrysler, you had the Daimler-Chrysler Women\u2019s Forum, have you taken some sort of similar initiative with Nissan?\nJW: Actually, when I first came on board, I was assigned to the Nissan-Renault Global Women\u2019s Forum.\n(The program is dedicated to closing the gender gap within the organization, and is represented at the annual Global meeting in Deauville France, which welcomes some 1,300 participants from around the world to discuss gender diversity)\nJW: We had 70 people in our first program, next week is Year Two, and we have 66 people in our program.\nWe\u2019re in a process right now of mentor sponsorship, we literally assign top people within the company \u2013 they\u2019re assigned to someone whose going to represent them in different meetings. It\u2019s a new initiative, with mentoring, conferences, special training \u2013 programs that assist in developing and promoting women and diversity.\nSilvia Mammone\nMichelin Tires \u2013 Motorsports Marketing Manager\nAround the world\u2019s international race tracks, she\u2019s known as \u201cMs. No\u201d.\nSilvia Mammone is Michelin Tires motorsport marketing manager, and is constantly being wooed by race team managers to supply them with the tires for which there is a never-ending demand, and only a limited supply.\nMammone explains that the company has a 16-year symbiotic partnership with many of the teams, supplying them with both tires and an engineer in return for the data accrued through their racing program.\nA brief chat with Mammone at the 24 Hours of Le Mans helped us understand how this Montreal native rose to such a lofty position at one of the world\u2019s biggest auto-related companies.\nLW: You\u2019re originally from Canada.\nSM: Montreal \u2013 my parents owned a bike shop for 25 years. I didn\u2019t get into racing because I loved cars. I got into it because I loved bicycle racing, because that\u2019s what our family did, such as at the Montreal Velodrome, the \u201976 Olympics. We had a bicycle team, so I managed the bicycle team and worked as the bike mechanic.\nI would however, get up on Sunday mornings and watch the F1 race with my dad.\nSo I grew up in the bike industry. When I joined Michelin in 96, I worked in the bicycle division and helped grow that business in Canada because I knew the industry.\nI was in that role for a couple of years, and then started going to Mosport for the motorcycle racing. From there I eventually moved into the passenger and light truck, and that brought me into the Honda-Michelin Challenge.\nLW: Oh, that was a fun series\nSM: Right! So I managed that, was up at Mosport three or four times a summer, then we did the Ice Challenge in Quebec and then worked with Formula One when it came to Montreal.\nLW: How does your program work with the participating racing teams at Le Mans?\nSM: We have different types of tires, but these are what we call \u201cconfidential proprietary tires\u201d. Essentially the tires are leased to the teams. All the teams pay for their tires. They pay for the tires, but actually never own them.\nIt works like a library book. At the beginning of the race weekend, the teams show up with their rims, we choose the tire along with a race strategist \u2013 the Michelin engineer, and that depends on which compound they\u2019ve decided, depending on temperature and depending on the track.\nWe know at every moment where every one of our tires is. We know if it\u2019s with a team, we know if it\u2019s a front or a rear, we keep track of all that. At the end of the race weekend, the tires come back to us and we check them back in, there has to be a balance of zero. We arrived with \u201cX\u201d many (of tires), we must leave with \u201cX\u201d many.\nLW: Have you ever lost a tire?\nSM: Not on my watch! They know how important those tires are to us, they represent 16 years of competing in the series, all the technology, the innovations we\u2019ve developed at Le Mans. I cannot envision us leaving without a tire. We will find it. There are crashes, obviously and tires are shredded, and at the end of the race we will go and pick up the chunks of tires and reconstruct it. We can shut the track down if we have to, and they know that.\nThe weight of this responsibility sits squarely on the shoulders of this former Montrealer, who says, \u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 we really want to win. But we want to win to learn, because that enables us to know why we\u2019re winning.\u201d\nTags: automotive, GM, industry, international women's day, interview, michelin, nissan, smart\nLesley Wimbush\nIn 5th grade, Lesley traded drawings of muscles cars for chocolate bars and things really haven't changed much since then.

        "raw_content": "Groups sue over immigration data\nSeveral pro-immigration and civil rights groups yesterday filed a class-action lawsuit to stop the government from entering immigration information into a national crime database, saying the data is being misused in the wake of the September 11 attacks on America.\nFiled in U.S. District Court in New York, the suit says the Justice Department and the FBI unlawfully entered civil immigration information into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), accessed by state and local police millions of times each day. Thus, the action subjects immigrants to the risk of unlawful arrest by state and local police.\nThe suit also questions the authority of Attorney General John Ashcroft and the Justice Department to enlist state and local police in the enforcement of federal immigration laws.\n\"Co-opting state and local police to make immigration arrests undermines public safety and encourages racial profiling,\" said Raul Yzaguirre, president and chief executive officer of the National Council of La Raza, one of the suit's plaintiffs.\n\"It makes immigrant victims and witnesses afraid to report crimes and assist police investigations, diverts law enforcement resources from other policing priorities, and entangles untrained officers in the complexities of immigration law.\"\nOther parties to the suit include the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, Latin American Workers Project, New York Immigration Coalition and Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees (UNITE).\nOscar Paredes of the Latin American Workers Project said the policy \"encourages every local cop on the beat to make immigrant arrests,\" while UNITE President Bruce Raynor said \"hard-working but vulnerable immigrant workers and their families are intimidated by any contact with local law enforcement authorities.\"\nThe NCIC database, which includes more than 40 million felons, fugitives and others being sought by federal law enforcement, was expanded after the September 11 attacks to include immigrant criminals who failed to show up for their deportation hearings.\nIt also includes thousands of immigrants who registered with the government under the \"special registration\" program, which requires that foreign visitors from designated countries register when they enter the United States. NCIC is used by 80,000 law enforcement agencies across the country.\nMr. Ashcroft has said that under the special registration program, authorities have detained eight suspected terrorists, including one known member of al Qaeda.\nDan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), praised the decision to expand a national database to enable state and local law enforcement officials to identify and apprehend known criminals and illegal aliens as \"an essential step to real homeland security\" and an \"invaluable tool in the effort to combat terrorism in the United States.\"\nMr. Stein noted that several of the September 11 terrorists had direct contact with local law enforcement officials before the attacks, and the lack of a central, accessible database made identifying them impossible.\n\"One of the direct contributing factors to the success of the September terrorists was the government's failure to collect and share information that might have foiled the attacks,\" he said. \"If we maintain a policy of willful blindness, by erecting firewalls to protect people who are in the country illegally, then we are courting another terrorist attack.\"\nMr. Stein said final orders of deportation have been issued for 400,000 alien absconders, but they cannot be located.\nSince these names have begun to be entered into the NCIC database, 5,000 have been removed from the United States, including 4,200 with felony convictions, he said.\nThe lawsuit wants the government barred from entering immigration records into NCIC and the removal of the thousands of entries compiled since September 11. It says Congress strictly limited the power of local and state police to make immigration arrests by requiring them to, among other things, receive formal training in federal immigration law before undertaking general immigration enforcement activities.",

        "raw_content": "Built in the 9th century during the reign of the Sailendra Dynasty, the temple\u2019s design in Gupta architecture reflects India\u2019s influence on the region. It also depicts the gupta style from India and shows influence of Buddhism as well as Hinduism. The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage.\nThe journey for pilgrims begins at the base of the monument and follows a path around the monument and ascends to the top through three levels symbolic of Buddhist cosmology: K\u0101madh\u0101tu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms) and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). The monument guides pilgrims through an extensive system of stairways and corridors with 1,460 narrative relief panels on the walls and the balustrades.\nEvidence suggest Borobudur was constructed in the 9th century and abandoned following the 14th century decline of Hindu kingdoms in Java, and the Javanese conversion to Islam. Worldwide knowledge of its existence was sparked in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, then the British ruler of Java, who was advised of its location by native Indonesians. Borobudur has since been preserved through several restorations.\nThe largest restoration project was undertaken between 1975 and 1982 by the Indonesian government and UNESCO, following which the monument was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Borobudur is still used for pilgrimage; once a year Buddhists in Indonesia celebrate Vesak at the monument, and Borobudur is Indonesia\u2019s single most visited tourist attraction",

Edoardo won the Johnnie Walker Championship by circling the last three holes of the tournament and winning by one shot at -10. Meanwhile, Francesco shot a 75, but still finished at -7 and tied for 3rd place. Edoardo picked up his 2nd win of the season, while Francesco picked up his 7th Top 10.\nNormally, that\u2019s an exceptional weekend for the Brothers Molinari. I mean, what Mother wouldn\u2019t be happy with 1st and 3rd in a European Tour event with a good field? But these Italians (from Turin) took it one step further with the help of Colin Montgomerie. Francesco already qualified for the European Ryder Cup team, but today (after winning in Scotland) Edoardo was also named to the team as a Captain\u2019s pick (alongside Padraig Harrington and Luke Donald).\nThe funny thing is that Edoardo is actually higher in the Race to Dubai rankings, but these two were going to make the team no matter what. They are 27 and 29 years of age and are the defending champions form the World Cup. It only makes sense to have them play together in the Ryder Cup and they should be unstoppable. In the World Cup they played 2 rounds of Fourballs and 2 rounds of alternate shot (Foursomes). They consistently went low and shot -29 through 4 rounds.\nThese brothers also played together in amateur golf winning the 2002 and 2004 Italian Amateur Foursomes Championship. The have been amazing all year and sit at 21 (Edoardo) and 38 (Francesco) on the Official World Golf Rankings (prior to the Johnnie Walker Championship).\nThey will be a force to be reckoned with when the world\u2019s best golfers head to Celtic Manor from October 1-3. Meanwhile, let\u2019s see how the US Ryder Cup team shapes up as Corey Pavin\u2019s picks will come in just over a week.\nFiled Under: Athletes, Francesco Molinari",

        "raw_content": "ThreeSixty Research Market Update April 2014\nMARCH MARKET PERFORMANCE\nGrowth is set to continue, despite weather impacting activity in the northern hemisphere.\nEurope continues to show tentative signs of recovery, albeit from a rather low base.\nChina\u2019s 7.5% growth target is unchanged, though reform remains the top priority.\nAustralian labour market conditions weaken, as mining-led investment reverses.\nThe upward trend in advanced economy business surveys faltered toward the end of 2013 and this has continued into early 2014.\nNevertheless, this softer note probably reflects bad weather disrupting supply chains. There is no evidence in financial markets or forward looking business surveys, that the predicted gradual upward trend in global growth has been called into question.\nAdvanced economy growth has picked up, largely reflecting trends in industry and other sectors. Yet, service sector activity in the latter half of 2013 was held back by government shutdowns, fiscal austerity and consumer caution.\nEmerging economy growth has flat-lined as expected and looks set to continue.\nAcross the Pacific, GDP growth is expected to decelerate modestly in the March quarter, partly reflecting the temporary impact of a severe winter. Quite a few economic indicators have weakened; however, it is not possible to quantify how much of this is weather related.\nAfter a large fall in January, the manufacturing survey recovered some ground in February. But we saw the non-manufacturing indicator fall to its lowest level in four years \u2013 although it still remains above 50, which indicates continuing growth.\nNot all partial indicators have weakened. Initial jobless claims have been relatively flat on a trend basis, business investment has held up, and even housing construction continued to grow through January.\nOn the monetary policy front, the current pace of Quantitative Easing tapering is likely to continue through to the end of Q4 2014. However, the Federal Reserve\u2019s funds rate is likely to be on hold until well into 2015.\nAfter a couple of soft months, non-agricultural employment grew by 175,000 in February, despite the severe weather conditions. The weak December and January readings were also revised up a little.\nThe Euro-zone grew by 0.3% in the December quarter, an annualised rate of around 1.2%. Growth was helped by rising exports and improving investment. However, over the 2013 year, GDP actually fell by 0.5%.\nRetail sales in the Euro-zone rose by 1.6% in January, offsetting the previous month\u2019s 1.3% decline. A modest decline in the Purchasing Managers\u2019 Index to 53.2 points was experienced in March, down from February\u2019s 32-month high of 53.3 points. A value above 50 indicates economic expansion.\nThe economic recovery is not expected to be strong enough to make any real dent on unemployment this year; however, encouraging signs are emerging. The number of persons employed increased by 0.1% in the Euro-zone during Q4 2013.\nEuropean Union annual inflation was 0.8% in February 2014, down from 0.9% in January. Labour-market slack is expected to keep inflation low, though the Eurozone is expected to dodge outright deflation.\nPremier Li Keqiang confirmed China\u2019s growth target at \u201cabout 7.5%\u201d for 2014, but noted that reform was the Government\u2019s top priority. While the target is notionally unchanged from last year, comments by other government officials suggest that there could be some flexibility this year.\nGrowth in industrial production slowed significantly in February to 8.6% (well below market expectations of 9.5%), down from 9.6% in December 2013. This level is the lowest recorded since May 2009, when China was recovering from the global financial crisis. The downward trend in industrial production was unsurprising given the falls in manufacturing across recent months.\nTrade data in February was particularly weak. This appeared to spook global markets, despite the fact that it followed unexpected strong levels in January. This volatility reflects the timing of Chinese New Year.\nThe Consumer Price Index has continued to slow from the recent peak in October 2013. In February, consumer prices increased by 2.0% \u2013 down from 2.5% when compared with January.\nIn early March, China recorded its first domestic corporate bond default. This has raised concerns regarding China\u2019s shadow banking system.\nOver in India, the pace of their economic growth was 4.7% in Q4 2013, which was below market expectations and slightly slower than that recorded in the previous quarter. This outcome lines up with the poor performance shown in the monthly output and international trade data of late 2013, where there was no sign of rebound activity.\nAcross in East Asia, slow growth continued into early 2014 for exports and industrial output. Japan\u2019s GDP for the December quarter has been revised downward to 0.7% annualised, due to a lower rise in capital investments and consumer spending. Japan\u2019s annual consumer inflation hit a five-year peak of 1.3% in January, although it remains well below the central bank\u2019s target of 2%.\nModerate economic growth continues across the emerging market economies of East Asia (ASEAN, Hong Kong, South Korea and Taiwan), with the pace of regional growth quickening from just under 4% in September to 4.3% in December 2013. The export-driven economies of Taiwan and South Korea accounted for most of the acceleration, as ASEAN growth was held down by political tensions in Thailand and financial/inflation issues in Indonesia.\nBack home, the Australian economy grew 0.8% in the December quarter. This resulted in an annual GDP growth rate of 2.8%, which is below the rate needed to prevent rising unemployment.\nLabour market indicators are mixed and suggest that an improvement in January may have been unwound in February. The unemployment rate rose to 6.0% in January and continues to be suppressed by weakness in the participation rate, currently 64.5%.\nThis pattern of jobless growth is set to continue as labour-intensive mining construction is replaced by capital-intensive mining production over the next few years. The NAB Consumer Anxiety Index rose to 61.7 points in March, compared with 61.5 points in December 2013. This was largely driven by heightened concerns over job security.\nPrivate business investment continues to be the weakest area of domestic demand, declining by 3.4% in underlying terms in December 2014. There has been a sharp decline in new machinery and equipment investment (-8.2%), which is now 16.6% lower than a year ago.\nForward indicators signal little likelihood of an improvement in growth. The tentative improvement in NAB business conditions since late 2013 fell away in February driven by poorer conditions in manufacturing and wholesale (a bellwether industry), while forward orders weakened.\nOn a positive note, business confidence remains better than during much of last year, although it drifted down a little in February.\nGlobal equity markets were marginally flat in March, with the MSCI (Ex Australia) Index down -0.05%.\nThe US was one of the few markets to experience a positive result, with the Dow Jones up 0.83%.\nAsian and European markets were the main laggards, with Hong Kong and the UK experiencing large falls.\nAfter a strong February and the conclusion of the reporting season, the Australian equity market experienced a relatively flat month in March. The S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index had a subdued month, increasing by only 0.21%, largely propped up by the banking sector.\nHowever, the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Index was down in March, posting a return of -0.23%, due to a fall in smaller cap stocks.\nFor the 12 months to 31 March 2014, the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index posted a reasonable gain of 12.97%; while the large market caps, comprising of the S&P/ASX 50 Accumulation Index, performed even better, returning 14.50%.\nThe best performing sectors in March were Financials, Industrials and Telecommunications. All three were solid performers, returning 3.1%, 0.9% and 0.8% respectively for the month.\nThe Materials, Consumer Staples and Utilities were the worst performing sectors in March, decreasing by -3.2%, -2.1% and -2.1% respectively.\nGoing up: Financial (ex Property): +3.1%\nGoing down: Materials: -3.2%\nThe MSCI World (ex-Australia) Accumulation Index was marginally down in March (-0.05%), after a strong rebound in February.\nThe US Dow Jones Index was up 0.83% in March \u2013 one of the few global markets to post solid returns in March.\nThe Nikkei, which had been a standout performer over the past 12 months, has been overtaken by Germany\u2019s DAX. While both were down in March (-0.09% and -1.41% respectively), over 12 months returns have been quite strong (19.60% and 22.59% respectively).\nMost other global markets were down in March, somewhat offsetting the broad market bounce experienced in February. The largest falls were felt in the UK (-3.10%) and Hong Kong (-3.00%).\nIn March, the S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Accumulation Index posted a -1.63% fall, once again underperforming the broader S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index.\nOn a 12 month rolling basis, property continues to underperform compared to the ASX 300 Accumulation Index. In fact, the 12 month return for the S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Price Index is now negative for the year to March (-0.87%), compared to the All Ordinaries\u2019 rise of 8.50% for the same period.\nOver the long-term, global property has continued to outperform the Australian listed property sector. Global property, as represented by the UBS Global Investors Index was up 14.56% over the rolling one year period. However, the sector has a steep fall in March of -3.60%.\nUS 10-year bond yields inched higher in March, to close the month at 2.72% (up 0.04%). Australian 10-year bond yields were also up and closed the month at 4.09% (up 0.09%).\nAustralian bonds were relatively subdued during March. For the month, the UBS Composite Bond All Maturities Index posted a return of 0.02%.\nGlobal bonds, as measured by the Barclays Capital Global Aggregate Index, were mixed against the Australian index. The unhedged index posted a fall of -3.51% for March, while the hedged equivalent had a positive return of 0.31%.\nIn March, the Australian Dollar (AUD) was up relative to most major currencies. The AUD increased 3.78% against the US Dollar (USD) to finish the month at 92.66 US cents. Over the past 12 months the AUD has declined significantly against the USD, down 11.05%.\nThe largest AUD rise in March was against the Japanese Yen (up 4.87%). On a 12 month basis, the AUD is down -2.54%.\nAgainst the Euro, the AUD was relatively was up 4.00% during March, but is down 17.21% for the 12 month period. The largest 12 month fall in the AUD was relative to the British pound (down -18.86%).",

The Northstar Grassman and the Ravens, the first of those solo albums, was co-produced and engineered by the ever-reliable John Wood. It's business as usual as far as participating musicians go. Denny's former Fotheringay companions are present, and ex-Fairport guitar prodigy Richard Thompson is all over the album. Freed of the compromises of a democratic group, Denny is able to concentrate on her own material. However, she also finds room for a fine arrangement of the traditional \"Blackwaterside,\" a dip into her beloved rock & roll on \"Let's Jump the Broomstick,\" and the obligatory Dylan cover, \"Down In The Flood.\" But it is the quality of the original material that marks this album. Finest are the plaintive \"Next Time Around,\" with a delicate string arrangement by Harry Robinson, and the moody \"Late November.\" \"John the Gun\" is vintage folk rock, featuring fiddler Barry Dransfield, who is joined on stirring backing vocals by brother Robin and by Royston Wood (ex-Young Tradition).\n1 .

On Sept. 26, 2016\nI was taking my dog out after the debate, before bed. I looked up to see if the sky had cleared so I could see the stars, which I love to do. I was shocked to see a group of orange, triangular shaped, moving objects. They were larger than any of the planets or stars I could see. They were just above the tree line, probably 60 degrees. I would have thought it was a flock of geese had it been daytime or had each been lit! But, they were each lit, a fairly bright orange, and the 11 or 12 objects flew rather slowly. There was no noise that I could hear and the \"v\" shape was not perfect. Some flew somewhat out of formation, for lack of a better word. I wonder if anyone else saw this.",

        "raw_content": "Lame Duck Congress Active In Policymaking, Obama Touts Progressions\nDecember 23, 2010 Mark Ryabtsev Congress, Economy, Jobs, Military, News, Taxes 0\nSan Francisco (Obama.net)- At the beginning of November when the Republicans made big gains in the United States Senate and took over the house of Representatives, many assumed that Congress would go through its lame duck session without passing any legislature and simply be stuck in endless debates until Republicans take their seats in January.\nHowever, Congress has been very active in passing new bills and making new policies in recent weeks.\nThe biggest issue settled was the new tax deal. Tax cuts were extended for all Americans for two years. Unemployment benefits were extended for thirteen months as well. In addition, the payroll tax was rolled back two percent for 2011 and tax breaks for students and their parents were also extended.\nAlso, the \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell\u201d policy has finally been repealed by Congress. The repeal bill, which Obama signed on Wednesday, now enables open gay and lesbian troops to serve in the United States military.\nOther new bills include START, also known as the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, the nuclear weapons treaty with Russia that the Senate finally approved and the 9/11 Health Bill, which will provide free medical coverage for the survivors and responded from the September 11, 2001 attacks.\nPresident Barack Obama is very happy about the unexpected turn of events. Obama said that the passing of so many new bills is a very important sign that \u201cwe\u2019re not doomed to endless gridlock\u201d in the Senate and the House. Obama also said, \u201cWe\u2019ve shown in the wake of the November elections that we have the capacity not only to make progress, but to make progress together.\u201d\nObama told reporters, \u201cI think it\u2019s fair to say that this has been the most productive postelection period we\u2019ve had in decades and it comes on the heels of the most productive two years that we\u2019ve had in generations.\u201d\nHowever, Obama did express his disappointment in the inability of Congress to come together and pass the DREAM Act and enable some illegal immigrants from being able to earn their citizenship through showing good character while enrolled in college or serving in the military. The President called the bill not passing his \u201cbiggest disappointment.\u201d\nBut overall, Obama did praise the good done by Congress recently. Obama said, \u201cWhat we\u2019ve shown is we don\u2019t have to agree one hundred percent to get things done that enhance the lives of families all across America.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\u00a9http://www.lesfilmsengloutis.com\nIt looks like this little man is floating in space- passing canyons and deep dips. Like a basejumper in slowmotion. But actually this man is freediving holding his breath for a really long time. Guillaume N\u00e9ry is a French Freediver and a passionate Oceanlover. In his movie Ocean Gravity he is carried by swift currents through Tiputa pass, part of the Rangiroa atoll about 355 km Northeast of Tahiti.\nGuillaume: \u00abJust like in Free Fall, the location is the starting point of the project. A dive in the Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa, in the Tuamotu Archipelago (French Polynesia)\u2026 and suddenly, I have this idea: to use the strong current during the rising tide to create the visual effect of a body in orbit around a star. The idea was launched and became an obsession. We had to come back at the end of our great journey to Polynesia to shoot this movie. Thanks to the support of the diving club Y AKA Plong\u00e9e Rangiroa, we needed 3 half-days to film all the images.\u00bb\nJulie: \u00abI decided to film without considering the elementary framing rules. I was no longer limited by the idea of top and bottom, like in space. In those conditions, I was able to create the natural illusion of a curved planet. The big challenge was to avoid filming the abundant sea life (sharks, dolphins and numerous fish) to maintain a to maintain a spatial and non-marine atmosphere\u00bb.\nTheir story is the story of an encounter between a man and a woman, two beings both hybrids at home on land and under water. They practice the art of snorkeling. They plunge into the depths of the seas in a single breath and can if put in the element liquid an infinite time.\nThe footage was filmed late last year by his girlfriend, director and underwater camerawoman Julie Gautier.\nThe movie shows perfectly how strong currents are \u2013 Guillaume is carried sometimes in really high speed. The speeds N\u00e9ry reaches in this video seem almost impossible without the help of equipment or flippers.\nYou can see some behind-the-scenes footage and read a bit more (in French) on their website. Gautier and Nery previously collaborated on this bone-chilling \u201cbase jump\u201d into Dean\u2019s Blue Hole in 2010.\nJulie Gautier is native of the Reunion Island. Former holder of several French records in deep-sea free diving (-68m), Julie uses her skills to express herself. She shoots images in apnoea with a unique aesthetic style, using her artistic instinct and the infinite freedom of her movements. Back on firm ground, Julie is an author and a director. Her sensitivity explains her attraction for the world of fiction, as shown in Narcose.\nGuillaume N\u00e9ry comes from Nice. With several records and a world championship title in deep-sea free diving (-125m), Guillaume continues to explore human limits and the unknown deep-sea world. More often in front of than behind the camera, Guillaume lives in water with as much as on Earth. He writes and creates images for some of his craziest ideas that combine aesthetic style and high performance, such as Free Fall or Ocean Gravity.\nRead more about their fantastic work on their website. and please feel free to share!",

        "raw_content": "Locating Offshore Trust Companies and Services\nThe first step is to select the best jurisdiction for your trust. For reasons explained elsewhere, our number-one choice is the Cook Islands.\nWhatever country you settle on, you will have to sort out the local trust companies. Here\u2019s what to look for.\nYour trust should be administered by a real institution. In many instances, what looks like a trust company turns out to be just a filing cabinet belonging to a law firms, accounting firm or company formation service. Your trust is unlikely to be administered properly and at reasonable cost unless you select a trust company with its own professional staff and whose primary business is providing trust services to international clients.\nBe cautious about selecting a trust company that is affiliated with an offshore bank or investment management company. It might turn out to be a good choice, but you should consider whether it is just a device for selling investment products for its affiliate.\nSelect a trustee that is serious about exercising its discretionary powers thoughtfully and about maintaining a record of its decisions for your trust. Hiring a trustee that will give rubber-stamp approval to your wishes makes your trust easy to attack as a sham. A conscientious trustee is mindful of the purposes of the Grantor and puts great weight on the advice it receives from the Protector, but it never says \u201cYes\u201d without thinking through its decisions and recording the reasons for its actions.\nWhen you identify a candidate, do an Internet search on its name, to see what shows up. If there is something seriously wrong with it, some unhappy ex-client will be eager to tell you about it.\nThe easiest and least expensive way to gain the safety of a lawful offshore trust is with the Passport Financial Offshore Trust Kit. The Kit will introduce you to the number-one licensed trust company in the Cook Islands.",

I checked that round thing you turn on the iron to make it hotter, that turns round and round .....(English students help me here) ehen...thermostat, yes........ but it was already on the highest/hottest setting (Linen..permenent setting for 98% of my clothes). The orange/red light thingy on the iron that lets you know when it is on was off, and had bin for longer than normal, even though the iron was still hot (i touched it ....ouch) but it was getting colder by the minute. I looked down to check if it was still plugged in to the wall socket...Aha! it wasn't, i guess in my vigorous attempt to look crisp and sharp I had pulled the plug out of the socket.\nThe lesson I learned from that was \"Stay Plugged in.\" Stay connected to the source of power to be able to function to your full capacity. Like that iron, sometimes we get disconnected from our source of Power, Healing, Wealth, Wisdom etc and even though initially, there may not be any immediate sign, 'cos everything still keeps functioning the way it was before, but over a period of time, the disconnect will show, either in our words or actions.\nI have experienced this several times and even quite recently, when I jump out of bed and rush of to work without spending time with My Heavenly Father (My office is 50m away from my room... so what's the rush? the excuse, i slept late because I was reading a zillion blogs....mehn.. blogville peeps are talented o! LOL) I noticed gradually that work became just a little bit harder, i was getting slightly more irritated over little things, I wasn't quite as \"Sharp\" as i should be in certain areas of my life, I had disconnected myself from the source of wisdom and was running on \"old glory\".\nWe may go on with life for a while without the divine connection, but when we get 'cold' we find ourselves in situations that we never expected, just like the iron couldn't perform it's designed function when it got disconnected, so also is it with us in our unplugged state.\nMy question to you today is... who/what/where is your source? stay connected to it at all times, even though somedays it may not feel like you are 'on' but like the iron that is plugged in, it has a thermostat which regulates the power intake and the heat output efficiency (Omo, dat one na for physics/engineering people ..... How i take become engineer sef...another mystery :-) You are never alone when you are plugged in to the Most high, you have all it takes to acheive all you have been designed to be. My prayer for today is that we all remember to stay connected and plugged in to the one who gives all that pertains to life and godliness.\nposted by John @ 12:43 AM 6 Comments\nGod's IF Statement\nLet me begin by saying that God's love for us is unconditional. This means that there is no \"IF\" attached to it. In Philosophy we were taught that in life there is logic, if this then that, else something else... ok I've lost myself too, philosophy can do that to you...LOL. Computer Programmers also use the \"IF\" function to solve a lot of complex problems that realate to choice, if a user clicks on a button, a particular function attached to that button will be executed, but even programming is way above my thinking right now, I like things simple, and all i have to ask is \"what does this button do....\" (Dexter's Lab) I know I know, too much TV!\nGod loves us without an IF, He definitely proved it by coming to earth to experience being human, feel our pain, interact with us on a human level, and then ultimately sacrificing his Son to pay all our debts. I don't know how unconditional that can get. Today's focus though is on God's blessings.........ahh, blessings, everyone wants them, to be healthy, live a fulfilled life, have food, money, clothes, purpose, etc. So who wants to be blessed let me see your hands up? see all of you, don't you know that there is a simple Binary choice for that? IF you do A, you will be blessed, but if you do B, you will not be blessed, infact you will be cursed, so it means that there are only two choices, Yes or No ....... easy isn't it?\nLets see what the good book says :\n\u201cNow listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways. If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to enter and occupy.\n\u201cBut if your heart turns away and you refuse to listen, and if you are drawn away to serve and worship other gods, then I warn you now that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live a long, good life in the land you are crossing the Jordan to occupy.\nSounds simple but....... I pray that we all will make the right choice today. Yes or No? If yes, then..... else if No, then .....\nposted by John @ 4:37 AM 5 Comments\nLesson 1. An Illustration of Prayer\nHi people, it's been a long while and I guess I've been guilty of not updating the blog, i would love to give a million excuses, but they'll only just be that - excuses, there really shouldn't be any excuse as to why I haven't been writing for y'all, but I guess you will forgive me. Thanks.\nEnjoy and happy reading........\nPrayer : How to -\nA man had two sons, one was 16 yrs old and the other was 12yrs. The man was away on a job in a far away country and was in communication with them via telephone. A few days to his return home, the father asked his 2 sons what they would like him to get for them. The following conversation was what took place\nFather : Hi kids, what do you want me to get for you guys.\nSon 1: Hey Dad, I would really love to have a chess set, with wooden pieces. (Now this son knew how much his dad loved to play chess, and felt that his dad would like him to learn to play someday so that they could play together in the future until they were old and grey)\nFather : Wow! That\u2019s great son, I\u2019d go find it immediately, I didn\u2019t know you were interested in chess, I\u2019m sure we\u2019ll have such a great time playing together.\nSon 2: Dad, I would like to have a gun \u2026\u2026\nFather : Sure son, I\u2019ll get you a toy pistol if you like, but aren\u2019t you a bit too old for that? \u2026.\nSon 2 : No dad, I don\u2019t want a toy, I want a real gun with real bullets!\nFather : Stunned silence!! Thinking to himself, he can\u2019t be serious, no way! He must be pulling my legs, I\u2019m sure he meant a toy gun, like a water pistol or something! Confused and scratching his head at this time\u2026.Okay now son, you know you can\u2019t have a real gun, because you are too young to handle such a dangerous weapon, and it\u2019s not a good thing to desire because guns are used for destruction, so maybe when you grow up and join the army, we could discuss about you having one, but until then, I can\u2019t grant your request.\nSon 2 : Throwing a tantrum.. Ahhhh no, no no , all I want is a gun!! All I want is a gun dad, it\u2019s a gun or nothing, I don\u2019t want anything else.\nFather : son, you know I love you and I don\u2019t want to hurt you, but what you are asking for is not a good thing, and even if I wanted to grant you this, I couldn\u2019t because you are too young to understand how it works and how to use it safely.\nSon 2 : I thought you said I should ask you for anything, you said you\u2019ll give me everything I ask for, now I\u2019m asking for this\nFather: I\u2019m sorry son, but I can\u2019t give you this, cos i know it\u2019s not good for you, trust me on this, you don\u2019t know what you are asking for. What else would you like me to get for you?\nSon 2 : No dad, I don\u2019t want anything else .\nGod will give us what we ask for - if and only if we ask in accordance to his will\n\u201cKeep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. - Matthew 7:7\n\"......Yet you don\u2019t have what you want because you don\u2019t ask God for it. And even when you ask, you don\u2019t get it because your motives are all wrong\u2014you want only what will give you pleasure.\" James 4:2-3\nWhat is that thing that you want? what lurks deep in your heart? what is the desire burning in you? if you want anything, there are steps to take to get it.\n1. Determine what it is you want from God. Be very specific. (Let's use this as an illustration: A woman has been married for sometime and she wants a child, the doctors say there's no hope, that she's has issues with her fertility bla bla bla.....)\n2. Find out if it is talked about in the bible -God's Word. You really have no business asking for what isn't in God's will, the answer would be a resounding NO! For the Illustration of the woman above, she will have to look for the following passages and others;\n\"You must serve only the Lord your God. If you do, I will bless you with food and water, and I will protect you from illness. There will be no miscarriages or infertility in your land, and I will give you long, full lives.\" Exo 23:25-26\n\u201cThe Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops.\" Deut 28:11\n\"He will love you and bless you, and he will give you many children. He will give fertility to your land and your animals.\" Deut 7:13)\n3. Ask God for what you want after you have determined that it is indeed talked about in the bible and God has promised to give to you. (\"......I tell you the truth, you will ask the Father directly, and he will grant your request because you use my name. You haven\u2019t done this before. Ask, using my name, and you will receive, and you will have abundant joy.\" John 16:23-24)\n4. Believe that God has heard and answered your prayer and you will recieve what you have asked for. (\"I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you\u2019ve received it, it will be yours.\" Mark 11:24\n\"But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!\" John 15:7)\nHave a lovely day people and May God grant you the desires of your heart. Amen!\nOnly the WORD\nWritten by Oma Okwara\n\"And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing; nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net\" (Luke 5:5)\n\"My son, attend to my words, incline thine ear unto my sayings... for they are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh\" (Prov 4:20-22)\n\"....... but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed\" (Matthew 8:8)\nThe words we speak are very powerful and have in them the ability to effect changes. Little wonder the bible says; life and death are in the power of the tongue, and whosoever loves it shall eat the fruit thereof. If our own words can be this powerful and transforming, how much more then the words of God, by whom we came into existence.\nGod's word is infallible (Is. 55:10-11). It has the ability to give life no matter the deadness of the situation to which it is sent to. It was all that was needed to bring Jairus daughter back to life (Mark 5:41). The dry bones received life by the word. Even fig tree withered only by the words spoken by Jesus.\n\"He sent his word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions\"\nThe word cannot be limited. For his mouth has given the order, and his spirit will gather them together (Is 34:16). No wonder the centurion asked Jesus to speak the word only, which was all the servant needed to be healed.\nIf you receive and appropriate God's word for your life, it can alter every other report, every other judgement and every other decision of man cos the witness of God is greater than that of man (1 John 5:9).\nHow to appropriate God's word in your life:\nFAITH: For he that believes, there shall be a performance of that which is said concerning him.\nPAY ATTENTION TO GOD'S WORD (Prov 4:20). Don't attend to your dreams, rumours, or even the doctor's report.Be rest assured that it is only the council of the Lord that shall stand.\nHOLD UNTO THE WORD TENACIOUSLY . Never trade it for anything whatsoever, cos it's even more precious than gold.\nENGAGE IN THE WORD THERAPY. Massage your system with the word. Don't stop saying it. For God will do exactly as he hears you say.\nKEEP THE WORD IN YOUR HEART (Ps. 119:11) Let it go beyond your mouth, for your heart is the ground wherein the word will become fruitful.\nBEHAVE THE WORD. Let it become your lifestyle.\nHis word is able to keep us and give us an inheritance among the saints. Never give yourself an option to his word. If he has said it, then it must surely come to pass for he watches over his word to perform it.\nposted by John @ 3:04 PM 0 Comments\nCome as Little Children\nI just love this man ....\nWhy are children so adorable ...... (okay not when you have to change thier nappies, or when they cry at night waking you up from sleep, even though they were just fed a few minutes ago...) not those times, but generally they are so innocent and lovable (a lot of mischief is hidden in their hearts so don't be decieved :-0) . A smile from a child is worth a million photos, and you can't help but love them back.\nWhen a child asks his mother a question (no matter how silly it sounds to a grown up) she knows that the child is curious and really wants to know, and beleive me, children can ask some really earth shattering questions. I heard someone make a statement, he said \" a child is a child, and can only be expected to think and act like a child, and until that child grows up and makes his own decisions, he/she is still a child\"\nJust as children are innocent, curious, adorable and true, that's the way God want's for us to approach him. He wants us to come to him just as we are, without pretense, as real as a child, for we are God's children if we believe in His son, Jesus. If you are His child, he loves and accepts you just the way you are. \"... He said to them, \"Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children\" (Mark 10:14) .\nI encourage you today to come to God like a child, children beleive their parents when they say \"Don't worry, mommy will buy you sweet/ice-cream/biscuit ....... \" (fill in the blanks! .... yeah... I know, I believed and I was expectant everytime I heard those words, it's funny now that as I got older, I don't expect that anymore, hmm...... food for thought dont you think?)\nThis is what God, who created everything, who is the best father anyone could wish for says;\n\"Come to me with your ears wide open, Listen and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all unfailing love I promised to David\" (Isaiah 55:3)\n\"Then Jesus said, \"Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.\" (Matthew 11:28)\nThere are many more invitations from God the most High, I pray that you hear his call today and answer like a child .... \"Yes dad, I'm coming .........\"\n\"And if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ\" Romans 8 :17\n\"Fear not, little flock, for it is the father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom\" Luke 12:32\n\"He has given unto us all things that pertain to life and to godliness\" 2 Peter 1:3\n\" ..... Everything belongs to you, and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.\" 1 Cor 3: 22-23\nEver imagined a son walk into his mother's kitchen, seeing all the well prepared dishes ready to\nbe taken by anybody who cares but still goes hungry for not having food to eat? Or a prince, whose father is very wealthy and influential, with many servants at his service all having whatever they want whenever they want and even some extras to give out to some friends, yet this prince cannot in his father's house have his needs met (a prodigal son, you may say). Error! The preacher calls it. Princes on foot and slaves on horses back. Eccl 10:5-7\nGod has given you everything you need.Scripture says that you are an heir of God and joint-heir with Christ. In other words, you have the same priviledges as Christ, you share equally in his\ninheritance. A man may have the key to a house without knowing it and he therefore remains outside. He is bound to remain there for as much as he is ignorant of his access into the house. It is the knowledge of who you are in Christ that breaks every limitation in your environment. Understand your place in Christ, everything you need, no matter what it is, has been made\navailable to you. Christ was made poor so that you through his poverty will become rich. You are complete in him. God calls forth things that are not as though they they were, and you having his nature can also do likewise for you were created in God's Image (Gen 1: 26 \"Then God said, \u201cLet us make human beings in our image, to be like ourselves....\" )\nAll that's required is that you really believe and don't doubt in your heart. He that did not spare his only son but gave him up for all; how will he not freely give you all things? He has made all things for his pleasure, and also for your own pleasure even as his. Arise therefore and tap into the provisions that are there for you. Begin to reign and live as a king because it's your birthright.\nWhy do you do what you do? What is the REAL reason behind what you do? Answer these questions honestly, and you'll be able to tell if you do things to please men or please God.\nThe online websters dictionary defines motive as;\nMo\u00b7tive : (m\u014d't\u012dv) n. An emotion, desire, physiological need, or similar impulse that acts as an incitement to action.\nWhy do you pray? why do you go to church? why do you give an offering? I would like to point out that it's not the act itself that matters, it's the reason behind the act. Jesus gave an illustration during one of his teachings' saying;\n\u201cWatch out! Don\u2019t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. When you give to someone in need, don\u2019t do as the hypocrites do\u2014blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get. But when you give to someone in need, don\u2019t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Give your gifts in private, and your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.\n\u201cWhen you pray, don\u2019t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.\nAnd when you fast, don\u2019t make it obvious, as the hypocrites do, for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting. I tell you the truth, that is the only reward they will ever get. But when you fast, comb your hair and wash your face. Then no one will notice that you are fasting, except your Father, who knows what you do in private. And your Father, who sees everything, will reward you (Matthew 6: 1-6, 16 - 18. NLT)\nSimple Illustration to show that your motives determine your reward, if you do things so that people will praise you, Jesus says that's all you will get, but if you do it for God, then God will reward you. I want God's reward, and I'm sure you do too, let the motive for all that you do, be to please God and bring glory to His name.\nRemember, it's not what you do, but why you do it. Do have a lovely day and may all of God's reward for you become yours!\nSorry guys, I've been away for a while now, was away from my computer and the internet for sometime (okay it wasn't that long, but ....... anyways, the important thing is that I'm back ;-) and that's what matters!)\nThis message was sent in by a lovely young lady (Oma Okwara) whom the Lord is using for HIS wonderful work (It's good to know such wonderful people ;-), and I would like to use this medium to say if you have any thoughts, comments, contributions that you think will help someone, somewhere, someday, please feel free to send me a mail and I'll gladly post it up. Enjoy!\nGenerally, The world in general measures a man's success by how wealthy he is, number of kids he has, how good his marriage is, etc... But it might be very surprising to know that one can achieve all these things and still be unsuccessful.\n\" A man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.\" Luke 12:15\nA pen may serve as a pointer. It may also serve as a ruler while drawing lines (err.... I think that applies only to Bic and Eleganza?), but no matter how perfect it is in these other functions, (as long as the ink is still there) the manufacturer still considers it underutilized, until it is used as a pen. There's a purpose for your creation and the realization of that purpose is what determines your success. Take some time out and find out who you are 'cos there's something beyond what you see in a mirror. The well being of the real you is the purpose of God for you.\n\"All the families on earth will be blessed through you.\" Gen 12:3\n\"And Lot, who went with Abram also had flocks and herds and tents.\" Gen. 13:5\n\"If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.\" John 8:3\nThe above quotations imply that as seeds of Abraham, your greatness and achievements can only be reckoned as success when you are a blessing to others. Blessing may not only be financially, you can be a blessing by saying a little prayer for someone in your closet. Even a smile freely given, or a hand stretched out in help can be all the miracle your neighbour needs. Be a river and not a reservoir. Flow into lives, change things, make impact. Stretch yourself to the limit. A rubber band is useless until it is streched, release all you have on the inside while you live. As long as people are there for you to bless, your blessing continues to flow.\nEveryone that is born of God has the potential to suceed. Just as salt is not valued by how white or how smooth it is but by how much taste it can provide, so also, your success is not measured by what you have, but by what you become to others or make others become. Go on and succeed, you have it in you.\nLet Go, It's over\nYour future is designed by the words of your mouth, what you say today, affects what will happen tomorrow. Having said that, what happened yesterday should not determine what will happen tomorrow, ok, so you failed the exam last time, that doesn't mean that you will fail tomorrow, so you fell into sin last week, that doesn't mean that your life will not continue, you made the mistake, yes, get on with it, life doesn't stop for anyone, it's in constant motion until the day you die!\nA lot of people are going about living thier lives based on what happened yesterday! It's not over until God says it's over, you haven't lost the battle until you give up, ..... you were abused as a child, that was terrible and it caused you so much pain, but you are all grown up now, don't let that experience determine the course of your life, Jesus paid the ultimate price just to give you everything .... peace, hope, a future, a life!! actually not just a life, but life everlasting (more abundantly too!) Oh how I wish you could see the beautiful plan God has in store for you, if only you'll trust in Him, He promised to forgive you and forget your sins, and God does not lie (actually, He cannot lie) but you have to forgive yourself..... (Now that is very hard for some of us to do!!), learn to see yourself the way God sees you, Righteous..... For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God\u2019s glorious standard. Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins (Romans 3:23-24), Holy ...... God has united you with Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy, and he freed us from sin (1 Corinthians 1:30), Blameless....... Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault (Colossians 1:22), yes you are..... yes you!\nLet go of your past mistakes, they happened yesterday, don't repeat them today, don't dwell on it. I'll let you in on a little secret, your sins can't change God, all they actually do is hurt you and the people around you, making your life more difficult than it should actually be, similarly, all your good works don't mean much to God, your good works affect those around you and makes thier lives a little better! God is moved only by faith in Him, so all your self pity and self beating about what you did yesterday won't do you any good, just beleive what God said about you, and trust that He means what he says.\nTherefore, since we have been made right in God\u2019s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God\u2019s glory. (Romans 5:1-2)\nFor I know the plans I have for you,\u201d says the Lord. \u201cThey are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

He must warn the wicked to turn from their way, that they may live. If souls perish through his neglect of duty, he brings guilt upon himself. (Mathew Henry's Bible commentary)\n\"When I say to the wicked, `O wicked man, you will surely die,' and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require from your hand. \"But if you on your part warn a wicked man to turn from his way and he does not turn from his way, he will die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your life. (Ezekiel 33:8-9)\nDear friends, How many of us know loved ones, neighbours, co-workers, etc who are not living right? (ourselves included!), when was the last time we warned them of the danger of their present lifestyle? For everyone you come across, you have been given a special duty by God to let them know about his love and his available mercy before it's too late.\nGod's will is not that men should perish, but that all may come to know him and partake in his gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ.\n.....\"Say to them, `As I live!' declares the Lord GOD, `I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then will you die, ...........' (Ezekiel 33:11)\n.....\"So it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones perish (Matthew 18:14)\n....\"The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.(2 Peter3:9)\nDo this now! warn your loved ones!!! You are a watchman .......\nRelieve that Stress\nThis Email was sent to me and I thought to share........\nA lecturer when explaining stress management to an audience, raised aglass of water and asked \"How heavy is this glass of water?\" Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g. The lecturer replied, \"The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it. If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance. In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.\n\"He continued,\" And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on. \" \"As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden.\" \"So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can.\"\nSo, my friend, Put down anything that may be a burden to you right now. Don't pick it up again until after you've rested a while. Here are some great ways of dealing with the burdens of life:\n1. Go to God .....\n...\"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.\" (Matthew 11:28-30)\n2. Hand the burden/worry/care over to Him .........\n...Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares about you (1 Peter 5:7)\n...Cast your burden on the LORD, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved (Psalm 55:22)\n...\"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.\" (Philippians 4:6)\n3. Beleive that God cares for you and will take care of it ......\n...When the cares of my heart are many, thy consolations cheer my soul. (Psalm 94:19)\n...It has been testified somewhere, \"What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him? (Heb 2:6)\nArt means different things to different people. Art could come in the form of music, sculpture, paintings, photos (National Geographic here I come!) and a host of other things. Every thing we see in the natural world is a work of art, and the appreciation varies with each individual, I guess it all depends on who the designer is. An Orange tree is a work of art, designed by the grand designer, the Most High God, who sculpted the heavens and the earth, who molded us and designed us just the way we are. We are all wonderfully made, carefuly crafted and expertly finished.\nWhile growing up, I asked a couple of questions, why are some people born with \"defects\" , blind, lame, deaf etc..... why are some black and some white, I thought we all came from one man and woman? (Adam was black and Eve was white, Cain, Abel and Seth were half-caste ....... that's my own theory :-) I cannot say that I have all the answers to those questions, but one thing I know is that God is good, and nothing HE does is evil. I will make reference to a simple answer Jesus gave his disciples when they asked him about a man who was born blind,\nAs Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. \"Rabbi\", his disciples asked him, \"why was this man born blind? Was is because of his own sins or his parents sins?\" \"It was not because of his sins or his parents sins,\" Jesus answered, \"This happened so that the power of God could be seen in him\" (John 9:1 - 3)\nAnd Jesus proceeded to heal the man\nThen he spit on the ground, made mud with the saliva, and spread the mud over the blind man's eyes. He told him, \"Go wash yourself in the pool of Siloam\" (Siloam means \"sent\"). So the man went and washed and came back seeing! (John 9:6-7)\nThis passage proves to me that God has his reasons for allowing things to happen, and shows us his goodness and his will for us as humans, that we might be whole, complete, a beauty to behold, just the way he originally designed us to be. (Adam and Eve were definitely not blind or deaf or lame etc, the evil all happened after the exit of man from the garden of eden, but that's another day's story.\nWhen you create a work of art for example a painting, and you truly love your work, what would you do if it got damaged, stained, torn, worn etc? ....... This is what God says about his work of art;\nSay to those with fearful hearts, \"Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming to destroy your enemies. He is coming to save you.\" And when he comes, he will open the eyes of the blind and unplug the ears of the deaf. The lame will leap like a deer, and those who cannot speak will sing for joy! ......... (Isaiah 35:4-6)\nTake a look again in the mirror (or pool of water ;-) and say to yourself,\n\" I am God's creation, and I am HIS work of Art, He came to save me and restore me to my original state\"\nI leave you with this thought. -- You are God's greatest work of art, a reflection of Him, just as if God was looking at a mirror while painting --\nAll in a seed\nWhat you sow, you shall reap ...... very popular statement, and very natural too. If you plant tomato seeds, you shall get a tomato fruit. (Now is tomato a vegetable or a fruit? that one has always eluded me!! If you know, please tell me so that I can solve that puzzle once and for all), if you plant corn/maize, you will get corn. Now there are many lessons one can learn from this natural law, for example what you put in the ground is what you'll get out of it, another lesson is that you will always get more than what you put in the ground, In the tomato (fruit or vegetable ..... okay i won't dwell on this anymore), you'll get a lot of seeds, same with the corn, or any other seed you plant.\nThis principle applies also to everyday human interactions, have you ever had a little child smile at you? What was your response? I can bet that you smiled back. That is called \"the seed of a smile\", the little child sowed a smile and got it right back and most likely got more in the form of being carried or asked how are you? what is your name? etc ...\nMy question to you today is \"What are you sowing?\" in your daily interactions with people, whether at work or in school, wherever, what are you giving out? What does your smile (or lack of it) say? What responses are you getting? if you don't like what you are receiving, try changing what you're giving. Give a smile today, a word of praise, a word of encouragement, show kindness, care, and love, and i can assure you that you will get all that and more because it's all in a seed.\nDon't worry, I won't talk about money, because that is another story for another day, but I just want you to remember one thing, the principle applies to every area of our lives. The perfect example of a seed from the perfect sower is Jesus, God gave his best, his only son because of his great love, he loves us so much that he sent his son Jesus to die for our sins and to reconcile us to him, - John 3:16 - \"For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him should not be lost but should have eternal life\", and by that seed, he has gotten more than one son back. God now has many sons, and as many as are willing to acknowledge and receive Jesus's sacrifice, they also become God's sons. I can't tell you how awesome it is to be the son of God, you will have to experience it for yourself, and as I plant this seed of these words in your heart, I know that it will grow into an understanding of God's love and goodness and sacrifice.\nHave a wonderful day y'all and remember if you want something, give it!!\nWho are you? What is in a Name?\nHi y'all, I had a long break there, Had loads of stuff to do and catch up on, but i guess I'm back now, so enjoy today's message and feel free to leave your comments, i really do appreciate the phone calls and emails, It's an encouragement for me to keep up the \"good\" (as some of you have called it) work.\nToday's question.... Who are you? usually gets a response that goes something like .... \"My name is .........\" This implies that a person is identified first by name, which brings me to the second question, what's in a name? What does your name mean? How does it affect/determine your life? Do you know that who you are is linked directly to what your name is?\nIn the bible we find that names meant a lot. A few examples will illustrate this;\nJacob became Israel, Abram > Abraham, Sarai > Sarah, Saul > Paul etc......\nHow important were these name changes? Do you think it had any effect on thier lives? The stories in the bible tell us that infact the name changes had a \"turn-around\" effect in thier lives, the childless bore children (Natural and faith children), the anti-Jesus man became the most effective disciple of Jesus! Amazing transformations if you ask me. How many of us would love to have life-changing events? Ask yourself, what is your name? what does it mean? I know of men who have changed thier names in this great nation of ours and have seen positive things take place in thier lives, now i'm not advocating that everyone go about changing thier names every 2 days or something like that, but I'm definitely saying that if your name means something that is not progressive/sad/evil/negative, I suggest you change it ... and quickly too!\nThe origin of names you ask? Well let's go back to the beginning, Adam was the first man, and he named everything on the earth, Trees, animals even his wife Eve, that must mean there's a lot of meaning to a name since it was the very first task that God gave Adam. For the perfect illustration, when Jesus was to come to earth, the angel Gabriel (Even angels have names!! isnt' that something to meditate on?) told Mary to name her child \"Jesus\" (Luke 1:31 and Realization in Luke 2: 21)) ...... Now that name is a Name that is above every name (Phillipians 2:10), Wonderful things happen at the mention of that name \"Jesus\" , Healings, answered prayers, Salvation, name it ... (sounds funny ...... \"name it\" :-), t'was not planned sha)\nSo you tell me, what's in a name? and who are you? I'd love to know your take on this interesting topic......\nWhen a man wants a job, he usually goes out and gets it. How he goes about it is usually in the follwing manner, he prepares his CV, files an application, and then follows through with all the necessary interviews. If he is succesful, he gets the job otherwise he starts the process all over again. Now lets apply that method to other things, and you'll find out a pattern, a question comes to mind, how many of us search for a job in God? How do you prepare your CV, how do you fill out an application, what interviews are necessary, how can you become succesful in your search? ......... meditate on that for a while and let it sink in.\nLet's start from the preparation part. Your CV, which is a history of your past and current position (wherever that may be). God says come as you are, just as you are now, you dont have to backdate your age (or is it forward-date?), you dont have to lie about where you did your IT, you don't need all that, just come as you are, don't worry about not being qualified, for HE has already qualified you.\nHow do you attend the interviews? what do you need to rehearse, what do you find out about the company .... Look around you, the sun, the moon, the trees, animals .... (seeing anything yet?) The creator of the universe made all these things, and HIS character (beauty, order, etc) can be seen from the things around you.\nWhat are your strengths and weaknesses? No need to answer that, HE already knows, actually, HE knows all about you, so it's not really an interview per se, it's more like \"do you accept to work for me? These are the benefits and these are the challenges you will face, what say ye?\"\nThis is the first part of this message ......... I'll keep you posted\nLiving For Today!\nAnyone familiar with the thoughts \"When I get married I'll be ok/happy/relaxed\", \"When I get a job I'll be content/happy/comfortable\", \"When I get the promotion ...........\", \"When I buy the car .....\" \"When I .......\" The list goes on and on and on. Truth of the matter is that we have all been given the same currency by God, and that currency is time, and the time you and I both have is NOW, not yesterday, not tomorrow, not 5 hours from now, not even a few minutes from now.\nA lot can happen in the next second, Jesus Christ may return, the stock market may collapse, the price of fuel may go up, you might win the lottery..... so many unpredictable events can occur in just a few seconds from now. The question really is \"What are you doing with NOW? Are you happy with NOW? Are you full of joy this very moment, or are you waiting for something to happen before you become happy/content/etc?\" Practice carrying the presence of GOD, for it is written, in HIS presence, there is fullness of joy! (Psalm 16:11 ....) God lives in you if you believe in HIS son Jesus, if you don't, you can experience this joy by simply accepting that Jesus paid the price for the world's sins so that you and me can come into the presence of GOD and experience fullness of joy. And you need to do this now, for that's the only time you have at your disposal, the next \"second/minute/hour\" belongs to God, and until it is given to you, enjoy the \"second\" you currently have!!\nLive for today - Please don't get me wrong, it doesnt mean we don't plan for tomorrow, but live as if you don't have tomorrow, live life to the full, express joy, love and peace to the full this moment....... be excited about life, enjoy HIS mercy and goodness and thank HIM for this moment, and even if you don't get to see the next second, you would have lived a full life! God's grace and mercy be to unto you this very moment!\nIn all your getting get wisdom ............ Wisdom is the principal thing....... heard that before?\nRecently I realised that I needed to make certain decisions concerning my life (career, life partner, where to live .....etc) so many decisions, but how can you be sure that the decisions you make are the right one? How sure are you that you are following God's will for that moment?\nTough questions if you ask me, and tough decisions too, but the WORD of God is true and is filled with a lot of statements that makes us realise that all the answers are there, which emphasises the importance of reading the WORD daily.\nLet me share with you what I found out to be the key thing to search for in order to make you decisions less mentally challenging :-)\nProverbs 9:10 \"The fear of the LORD is the begining of wisdom\"\nProverbs 2:6 \"The LORD grants wisdom, from HIS mouth come knowledge and understanding\" (NLT)\nJames 1:5 \"If you need wisdom - if you want to know what God wants you to do - ask him and HE will gladly tell you. HE will not resent your asking (NLT)\nBenefits of Wisdom (all scripture is from NLT)\n- It will fill you with Joy (prov 2:10)\n- It will save you from evil people (Prov 2:12)\n- It will save you from adultery and fornication (Prov 2:16)\n- You will know how to find the right course of action everytime (Prov 2:9)\n- You will gain knowledge of God (Prov 2:5)\n- It will multiply your days and add years to your life (Prov 9:11)\nSo much more, but i'll let you digest this for now, for you to get wisdom, simply ask GOD and HE will gladly give it to you! So I suggest that you read the book of proverbs daily, it contains 31 chapters, one chapter for each day of the month, at the end of one month you'll definitely be wiser, and be able to make decisions easier and knw for sure that you made a \"wise\" descision.\nTill I come your way again, hold on to wisdom, never let \"her\" out of your sight!\nAnother Sunrise!\nWhat a lovely day it is, what can I say? It's a day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. Take out time today to give GOD thanks for seeing another day, there's a reason for you being here today, find purpose in your life, and you'll be filled with joy.\nEnjoy God's gift to you, a statement of purpose saying\n\"My son, here's another day for you to reach out to the rest of humanity, another day to show forth my glory, another day to reflect my character so that men may see and give praise to me\" My gift to you -The sunrise!\nThis time the photo was taken by me (not wanting to be outdone by Ben :-), maybe I'll put in this entry for photo of the month! what do you guys think?\nIf Jesus Came Back Today...\nI received this wonderful peom and it rang so true, So brothers and sistas, what would you do?\nCulled from Laugh and Lift (www.laughandlift.com)\nAuthor (Unknown)\nWould you have to change your clothes Before you let Him in?\nOr hide some magazines, and put The Bible where they'd been?\nAnd I wonder...if the Savior Spent a day or two with you,\nOr would life for you continue As it does from day to day?\nWould you take Jesus with you Everywhere you go?\nOr would you maybe change your Plans for just a day or so?\nWould you be glad to have Him Meet your closest friends?\nOr would you hope they stay away Until His visit ends?\nIt might be interesting to know, The things that you would do,\nIf Jesus came in person, To spend some time with you.\na perfect reflection of the almighty one,\nGOD the most high, Elohim, El ELyon,\nHis character can be seen in the things that were created,\nyou cannot help but give HIM praise and worship,\nfor HE deserves all the glory and honour and power.\nTake out time today to give thanks for the little things\nand for the big things too.\nGod loves you, may HIS peace be with you all through this day.\nThis photo was taken by Benedict Akinyamoju at Ibewa, a little town in the Niger-Delta in Rivers State (On the rig site where we earn a living) I think this photo deserves an award, Hey Ben, National Geographic needs you son :-)\nWat an interesting day it's bin........ more on that later, for now, just let me be. i nid to get some lunch!!\nThis is what you've all been waiting for, the day that John decides to write!\nWhat can I say? I have no idea what to write about, nor what to discuss, what was I thinking?! I guess I thought this would be real easy, now I'm finding out that it is actually :-)\nFor those joining this site, this is the first post and it's an introduction to the life and times of yours truly.\nGod bless naija and God bless you all.

        "raw_content": "The Scary Truth about Instagram (and how it\u2019s Ruining Our Self-Esteem)\n| Apr 5, 2017 | Parents Articles, Teachers Articles, Teenagers Articles\nHow many times have you heard someone say one of the following things about one of their photos on Instagram?\n\u201cRe-do! The photo doesn\u2019t look good.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m deleting this; it didn\u2019t receive enough likes.\u201d\n\u201cMy body doesn\u2019t look good in that photo.\u201d\nWe are obsessed with our virtual reality selves. We try to get that perfect angle and the perfect photo for our followers.\nIs to feel valued? Is it because we\u2019re pressured to appear a certain way? Is it to compare ourselves to other people?\nIt could be a combination of the three. Nevertheless, there is a root cause of all the reasons behind this culture of trying to be perfect on social media: insecurity!\nWhy We Are So Insecure on Instagram?\nThe truth is\u2026 the more you attempt to prove your value to others, the quicker you question your own self-worth. You focus more of your time and energy thinking about how to please other people rather than yourself. We start to criticize ourselves and question whether we look good in a photo or video we posted. We start to doubt ourselves and wonder if we\u2019re pretty or good looking enough.\nForget how shallow that seems; it\u2019s damaging to your physical, mental, and emotional health.\nWe shouldn\u2019t be spending our entire lives proving our value to others. That kind of lifestyle would not be fair.\nEven Instagram models agree with this claim.\nThe Guardian did an interview with some Instagram models, and here\u2019s what one of them said:\n\u201cI get serious FOMO (fear of missing out) with Instagram, and with all social media. People are publicizing usually something really cool or fun that they\u2019re doing, or at least they make it appear that way. I absolutely feel insecure. [\u2026] I have had Instagram since I was in university. I do feel a pressure to look particularly good. I would never post a photo that wasn\u2019t flattering of me.\nI feel anxiety over how many likes I get after I post a picture. If I get two likes, I feel like, what\u2019s wrong with me? Some people judge Instagram by deleting photos that don\u2019t get enough likes. I wouldn\u2019t do that, but I would definitely second-guess my intentions with posting them.\u201d\nAustralian Model Quits Social Media\nEssena O\u2019Neill was a model who once had over 500,000 followers on Instagram and about 100,000 views on each of her YouTube videos. She made a viral video announcing that she quit her job modeling for one of the top agencies in Australia.\nWatch her 17-minute video below:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe1Qyks8QEM\nImagine how many young women (and men) share O\u2019Neill\u2019s experience. The pressure to appear a certain way on a social media platform like Instagram can really affect one\u2019s self-esteem.\nHowever, there\u2019s something else she revealed in her video that needs to be discussed.\nInstagram Photos Are the New Photoshopped Magazine Photos\nYou know how magazines alter images, don\u2019t you? Many people now know that the media uses Photoshop (along with other tools) to normalize this perception of what\u2019s normal, healthy, beautiful, and attainable.\nContrary to popular belief, this is not exclusive to the fashion industry. In fact, according to Beauty Redefined, Photoshopped images can be found anywhere, including some of the brands you follow on Instagram.\nJust take a look at this video from Dove to see the evolution of someone\u2019s face being changed in front of your own eyes.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYhCn0jf46U\nHow does this relate to Instagram, exactly?\nInstagram\u2019s social media culture does provide a great platform to share authentic photos, but not everything is as flattering and amazing as it seems in those photos. People might not use Photoshop, but they can use filters (even if they use the hashtag #NoFilter). They can give off the impression that the photo was effortlessly taken with very little or no preparation whatsoever.\nAs mentioned in Essena O\u2019Neill\u2019s video, businesses rely on social media engagement to thrive. They will go to extra lengths and hire professional photographers and models to promote their products. The Instagram models then share it on social media and get money after promoting it on their accounts.\nSo even if you did think comparing to others on Instagram is okay, just remember that you\u2019re not competing against regular people; you\u2019re competing against big businesses and marketing agencies.\nTake a look at the caption of Essena O\u2019Neill on the bottom of this photo, where she says this is \u201cnot real life\u201d and how she actually felt \u201calone\u201d while taking this photo.\nConclusion/Call-to-Action\nIt\u2019s surprisingly sad to see how much we criticize ourselves. Every day we go on Instagram, we scroll through our newsfeeds and almost immediately compare ourselves to the people in those photos. We look at the amount of praise (particularly the number of likes and positive comments) they get and wonder, \u201cHow can I look like that?\u201d\nYou might be asking yourself, \u201cWhat should I do now?\u201d\nRemember that you can never replace real relationships with online relationships. The level of authenticity of being in front of someone and having a real conversation with someone is irreplaceable. We also recommend doing a 48-hour digital detox to see how it feels to interact only with real people; you will notice a huge positive difference.\nDon\u2019t let numbers define you. Forget about whether you have more/less followers now than you did last week. Your personality is based more than what is in your collection of photos on your social media account. Assuming you stay on Instagram \u2013 rather than quit social media like Essena O\u2019Neill did \u2013 make sure you continue to recognize the differences between the real world and the virtual world (and to maintain a balance between the two).\nLove yourself. We are our harshest critics. However, it is important to know that you are still beautiful by your own standards. Don\u2019t compare yourself to others and think that you need to change. Be yourself and don\u2019t think for a second that you\u2019re worse than anyone else because of it.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=litXW91UauE",

Gold prices pushed $540 in December, which was the most fun that the hard yellow metal has had since 1982.\nFor us, 2005 was spectacular, business-wise. Of course, record sales don\u2019t mean very much when the commodity you deal in goes up in price. We\u2019re prouder of the fact that for the sixth year in a row we \u2018pushed more units out the door,\u2019 that is to say, sold a record number of ounces of gold.\nAs we begin our seventh year on the Internet, we remember the words of Mark Twain:\nLike young Mr. Clemens, we too are sometimes astonished at what can be learned in seven years.\nAnd next year will bring us a lot to look forward to. The Mint is already producing gold Eagles for 2006, and we will have those available about January 5th.\nIn addition, this week we finally learned a few details of the long-awaited .9999 pure gold bullion coin from the US Mint. The design will be a variation of James Earl Fraser\u2019s Buffalo/Indian nickel that was produced from 1913 to 1938, only rendered in a 1-ounce gold coin.\nFor certain, the Buffalo/Indian design is a timeless icon of Americana, reproduced in many forms over the decades. The Mint itself recycled that same old nickel design for a commemorative silver dollar struck to raise money for the Smithsonian Institute in 2001.\nWe\u2019ll see whether bringing the old Chief and Bison out of mothballs, to grace an American gold bullion coin aimed at the world market, is a success. My guess is that it will make quite a splash in the US.\nWe thank you all for all your support in 2005. We are looking forward to 2006, which should be another huge year in the precious metals markets. Starting January 2, 2006, we\u2019ll be back in the saddle.\nSo Merry Christmas to you, Happy New Year, Solstice has come and gone and the days are getting brighter! Things are looking Up!",

The students were accompanied by rabbis from their respective Jewish community, and a native speaker of their language was attached to each group. The journey to Israel and bar/bat mitzvah celebration for 100 youths was sponsored by the Morasha Department of Center of European rabbis, with generous support and assistance by Mr. Moti Sonnenfeld and the Danielle Sonnenfeld Foundations.\nIn the course of the banquet which was held in Zedekiah\u2019s Cave on Wednesday with guests of honor expressing their profound excitement and emotion, which was shared by all participants.\nIn particular, Mr. Moti Sonnenfeld\u2019s stirring words about his daughter Danielle, a\u201dh, a young woman who brimmed with life and love and was also privileged to celebrate her bat mitzvah in Israel. At the age of 20, after spending a full day volunteering at the oncology unit of Schneider Children\u2019s Hospital, Danielle\u2019s life was cut short in a fatal car crash, which was the catalyst that spurred her parents to establish the Danielle Sonnenfeld Foundation in her memory.\nSonnenfeld highlighted one particular story that characterized Danielle during her short life.\n\u201cOne day, Danielle heard of a young man who was hospitalized in the oncology unit. He was a fresh Russian immigrant who\u2019d arrived without any family and was completely alone. His illness was rapidly consuming his body and his hopes of recovery were minimal. Despairing of life and his future, the young man stopped eating and declined medical treatment. Yet Danielle refused to give in. With her devotion, spirit and love of people, she encouraged him and convinced him to eat and persist with the treatment. Every day, the young man waited eagerly for Danielle\u2014his angel of mercy\u2014to visit.\n\u201cSadly, the young man passed away a short while later, but he went in peace and was buried in Beersheva. Danielle made a point of traveling once a month to Beersheva and recited Tehillim at his graveside, aware that there was no one else to daven for him. That was Danielle\u2014a person overflowing with love and chessed. And I call upon all of you to continue growing and maturing with that same kindness and chessed. No less important is your bond with the Jewish nation and country. When you return home to your countries, I ask that you perpetuate Danielle\u2019s legacy\u2014a legacy of love and Jewish pride.\u201d\nAt the close of the events, the parents, boys and girls expressed their deep gratitude to the Center of European Rabbis, which is under the auspices of Chairman Rabbi Menachem Margolin, Deputy Chairman Rabbi Aryeh Goldberg, and faculty members Rabbi Yossi Beinhacker and Rabbi Avraham Abba Trotsky for their efforts to produce an unforgettable journey and celebration. They also thanked the event sponsors including the Ministry of Jerusalem and Heritage under the auspieces of Minister Zev Elkin, Mr. Rami Levi, Rabbi Maimon, and Mr. Moti Sonnenfeld.\nThis is the 9th consecutive year of the project that brings bar and bat mitzvah boys and girls on an educational and experiential journey to Israel to strengthen their commitment and bond to the country and nation. Aside from the tours and attractions, the program encompasses a wide variety of educational and social programs.\nPrevious articleWATCH: Babies compete for \u2018strongest lungs\u2019 and \u2018best napper\u2019 in maternity ward \u2018Olympics\u2019\nNext articleStudent At Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School bentches gomel",

        "raw_content": "Construction workers face a high risk of injury relative to other professions. According to data collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, construction site accidents are a significant contributor to both fatal and nonfatal injuries for workers in Illinois and across the United States.\nThe risk of injury to construction workers may be evaluated in the context of both fatal and nonfatal injuries incurred in the workplace. Given the nature of the work, the prevalence of exposures to bodily harm on construction sites yields a higher risk of both types of injuries in this industry.\nMore workers killed in construction than other industries\nIn the context of fatal injuries incurred in the workplace (which may result in workers\u2019 compensation), data from the BLS show that, in 2013, 796 construction workers were killed on the job. This figure accounted for 18 percent of total fatal injuries across all industry sectors, and also represented the highest number of deaths among all sectors.\nAnother way to quantify the risk of fatal injury to construction workers is to evaluate the incidence rate of such injuries in the sector. Accordingly, the incidence rate of fatal injuries to construction workers, per 100,000 full-time equivalent workers, was 17.7, compared to the national average of 3.2.\nThe types of injuries in 2013 that resulted in death to construction workers varied, but were concentrated among the following four types:\nFalls, slips and trips (37 percent of fatal injuries)\nRoadway (12 percent)\nStruck by object or equipment (10 percent)\nHomicides (1 percent)\nThe above types of injuries amounted to 60 percent of fatal injuries to construction workers, leaving 40 percent of such injuries distributed among a variety of other causes.\nHigh Incidence rates for nonfatal injuries\nFortunately, most injuries in the workplace are not fatal. However, these nonfatal injuries can result in outcomes ranging from missed time (in 28 percent of cases, more than a month away from work) to permanent disabilities (including brain injuries). Again citing the BLS, nonfatal injuries for 2013 in the construction sector ranked fifth among 22 listed sectors.\nConstruction zones commonly feature a host of physical hazards, as evidenced by the incidence rates among the nonfatal injuries most likely to harm construction workers. Compared to industries in general, workers in the construction industry are nearly twice as likely to become injured as a result of contact with objects and more than three times as likely to become injured as a result of falling to a lower level. Anyone who has been injured on the job may want to discuss their legal rights and options with an attorney.",

        "raw_content": "You Don't Need Us To Tell You...\n...that gas prices...\nThat is some creepy shit right there.\nAg-Gag: Welcome to the Corporate Police State\nThis is insanity. This is corporations marshalling the coercive power of the state to protect their blatant wrong-doing. And the post-9/11 state--which apparently thinks that it can observe everything you do, but that you have somehow lost the right to record its activities--seems only too happy to extend its authoritarian anti-taping initiatives in such a way as to protect corporate wrong-doers.\nThis is utter madness. There is no possible justification for this bullshit.\nSargent: The GOP and Post-Policy Nihilism\nAt this point, they might as well be trying to destroy the country.\nColbert: Get Your LotR Facts Straight, CNN\nI think I had that calendar...\nNew Pacific Rim Trailer\nIt is with great sadness that I predict this movie will suck.\nWhat we really need is a really dark, rainy, awesome semi-Cthulhu-esque giant-monsters-from-the-Pacific story...without the giant combots.\nOr, actually, see, the first movie should be the the Alien analog...a horror movie where mere survival is the goal. Then comes the we-strike-back shoot-'em-up monster movie with the giant 'bots, i.e. the Aliens analog...\nThe monster scenes look great, but the human clips don't inspire confidence.\nI really hope GdT can pull this one off, but I'm not optimistic. Yet I will be there as soon as this mofo comes out.\nJason Collins Is The Man\nProps to you, man.\nThis takes guts, even in this age and day.\nKrugman: Bush, The Great Degrader\nBut I think there was something even bigger, in some ways, than his policy failures: Bush brought an unprecedented level of systematic dishonesty to American political life, and we may never recover.\nMy suspicion has long been that it was Reagan who made bullshitting and spinmeistering so central to the presidency...though Bush '43 did degrade the institution by pushing lying, selling, spinning, and bullshitting to a new level. I've typed that sort of thing over and over. So, anyway, I basically agree. with Professor K, FWIW.\nAmong the many things that anger me about all of this is that the hard core of Bush apologists and reconstructors know that all they have to do is keep repeating their lies. Thirty years from now relatively few people will have clear memories of how disastrous Bush's presidency really was. And those who try to find out what it was like just by reading historical accounts will encounter a swamp of he-said-she-said...er...ing? 'ness? Whatever.\nAnd this is one reason why I have authorized my friends to beat me with a 2x4 if I ever vote Republican again: the party still hasn't admitted that Bush was a bad president, and it never will. Or it'll only \"admit\" it in a self-serving way: e.g. on the grounds that he was insufficiently conservative. Since being a Republican means never having to say you were wrong, they simply attribute every failure to bad \"communication,\" to a failure to get their inherently excellent \"message\" across to people--who would surely embrace it with great ardor could they only understand it...\nIf the GOP would admit that the Bush administration was a godawful disaster, we could at least conclude that they'd be likely to avoid foisting another such administration on us in the future. But, given that they remain committed to the conclusion that the Bush administration was just dandy, there's no reason for us to think that they'd not give us another, equally bad or worse, in the future. If that's what counts as an acceptable presidency to the GOP, then they cannot be trusted to get anywhere near the office.\nOf course one salient question here is: are the Dems any better? I think the answer is 'yes.' First, partisan Democrats on the SCOTUS haven't stolen the presidency with sophistical arguments of late...so that's something... The Dems haven't given us anyone as awful as Bush/Cheney... And their innate self-doubt and tendency to flagellate themselves over their errors helps tone down their dogmatism a bit. So, yeah. The Democrats, as usual, win by sucking less than their opposition. Such is the way of human politics...\nAnother Huge Bank Scandal?\nI almost don't even care anymore.\nKrugman: The One Percent's Solution\nWill people give up austerianism given that the preponderance of evidence and expert opinion seems to be against it?\nWorldz TOP Thinkarz WOOOOOO!!!11\nI'm not even going to...\nOk listen, which of the following is the most embarrassing?\n1. That this list exists at all\n2. That Richard Dawkins is ranked #1\n3. That Slavoj Zizek appears anywhere on it (#6, in case you're interested...)\nI'm just going to pretend I never saw this.\nBeck Bombshell Fizzles\nWell, looks like Beck's BIGGEST STORY EVAR has...and how could anyone possibly have seen this coming?...turned out to be nothing.\nMarathon Bomber Had No Gun\nJesus this is weird.\nObviously, I'm not a cop. It's not my ass on the line. But that's an awful lot of rounds to fire in response to...exactly zero rounds fired your way. No gun glimpsed. No gun present.\nThis was also a case in which it was very important to take the suspect alive, and in which there was no real chance that he would escape. It also doesn't exactly seem to be an isolated incident--stories of the police firing excessive numbers of rounds seem to crop up over and over.\nI've never been in a firefight, but I do have a lot of experience with firearms. It's not like you can accidentally fire off your whole magazine... Sometimes such things are inexplicable from the outside, but not so from the inside...and this, of course, could be such a case...\nBut it could also be (more?) evidence that the police have a tendency to be--perhaps extremely--trigger-happy.\n...It's usually not about those things... Those things are an infinitesimally small bit of the universe. Even if we focus only on H. sapiensit's still not always about those things. It's still not even usually about those things.\nAs it turns out, in the cosmic scheme of things...it's almost never about those things at all...\nTen Years of Krauthammer Days\nCrooked Timber on the wrongest man in the world.\nSlightly NSFW.\n(Via MeFi comments)\n\"Cultural Appropriation\"\nDoes anybody know how it is that people get this confused? Anybody?\nActually, I know the answer: bad theories, a lack of intellectual honesty, dogmatism, and a desire to appear morally superior.\nYet another ass-backward, ridiculous sin dreamt up by the lefty/\"SJW\" set.\nNow hear this: there is absolutely nothing--nothing--wrong with adopting stuff from other cultures. Contra the moron on the other end of the link, such things are eminently speparable from bits of their history (e.g. colonialism). You wanna wear paisley? Go right ahead. Not a damn thing wrong with it. In fact, that in particular is a frivolous decision, and the stuff is now a part of our culture anyway for chrissake. Wanna listen to African music? Read the Kalavala? Wear a kilt? Be a Buddhist? Paint Aztec designs on your wall? You go girl. That is all cool. You are under no obligation to pile stuff from other cultures into your life, but there's tons of great stuff out there, and you'll likely have a richer life for doing so. It'll be good for you and good for the culture in question. Added benefit: you'll piss off stupid people. Win-win-win.\nJebus, the confusions runs so deep over there it's hard to even know where to begin.\nRemember how, like, a few years ago you'd have been terrible and ethnocentric if you didn't go out of your way to bring bits of other cultures into your life? Well, see, lefty fashions have changed, and now it is verboten. (Oops...there I go, appropriating the German language... )\n\"Cultural appropriation\" is an invented sin, manufactured by third-rate intellects in an effort to alleviate the boredom associated with moving incrementally forward with actual moral and political reforms in the actual world.\nThese people are just religious fanatics in political guise. They love living in a world of original sin, in which we are all automatically irredeemably prejudiced by virtue of our very birth, they love pofessing their sinful \"privilege,\" and love displaying their putative purity/alleged moral superiority even more. These people are political fundamentalists.\nIt's a kind of madness sweeping through a not-terribly-bright sector of the interwebs.\nThe sloppy thinking, crackpot philosophy and letfist fanaticism...yet another generation of lunacy descended, as seems clear, from postmodernism.\nIf you'll remember, I predicted that the loony left would crawl out of the woodwork in a second Obama term, as they did in Clinton's second term... Dang I hate bein' right all the time...\nFortunately, it kinda seems to me that liberals are having none of this stuff this time around. They knucked under and cowered in fear of the PCs in the '90's...but the SJWs are so patently loony that I'll actually be kind of surprised if this particular flavor of insanity gains any currency...\nPro-American Yemeni: Drone Strikes Generate Anti-American Sentiment\nSalvaging Bush: Jennifer Rubin's Alternate Reality\nAnother salvo in the battle to rehabilitate the Bush presidency.\nThis is one of the reasons that the GOP deserves to be voted out of power permanently: no matter how horrific the fuck-up, they are incapable of admitting that they were wrong.\nHaving pissed on our national leg nonstop from 2000-2008, they now hope to convince us that it was raining.\nAre the Marathon Bombers Best Classified as Terrorists or Murderers?\nEx-CIA Deputy Director says it may be more like Columbine than like terrorism.\nJust for the record, I was asking about this before.\nDrezner on Bush: Was He a Disaster or just Out of His Depth?\nDrezner pushes back against revisionists who are trying to make Bush's legacy to be non-terrible:\nAt best, George W. Bush was a well-meaning man who gave the occasional nice speech and was thoroughly overmatched by events. At worst, he was the most disastrous foreign policy president of the post-1945 era.\nThat's about the most charitable way one could put it...\nThe Bush administration was a disaster. It is, in a way, fitting, I think. We allowed the GOP to conduct a soft coup in the election of 2000. People should still be demonstrating in the streets about that. We allowed the Republican party to subver American democracy, and we paid a heavy price for it, including, iner alia, no seroius effort to stop 9/11, and a radically counter-productive war that could ultimately cost us $6 trillion. And that's to mention only the treasure, not the blood, nor the loss of moral authority. The Bush administration was a self-inflicted wound that might take a hundred years to heal.\nO'Sullivan: Believe It Or Not, We're Safer After the Iraq War\nUm...not.\nThis is really, really terrible. I keep not getting to it, though, so I thought I throw out a quick link.\nImportant information for Ms. O'Sullivan:\nThe following form of inference is invalid;\nPossibly p\nThe Austerity Scam? Exposed?\nIs austerity being pushed on account of a couple of coding errors?\nUpdate: the dude what may have busted them.\nEverybody Gets His/Her/Their/Cos/Zir/Hir/Per/Thon/Em Own Pronouns\nSadly, that is apparently intended to be serious.\nMan it'll be much more convenient when everybody has his...er....her...er...xyglomph...own pronouns.\nThough...\"pronouns\" that are different for everybody, and which are such that you have to ask people which ones apply to them are, basically, names and not pronouns at all...\nMy pronouns are Gandalf/Gandalf's, incidentally, and I will thank you to use them. Actually, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, my pronouns are Great Cthulhu/Great Cthulhu's.\nNext thing, you're going to start oppressing my headmates, too...\nUpdate: More pronouns, oppressors. (via Reddit/r/TumblrInAction).\nUpdater: Still more pronouns. Props this time. (In the sense of gadgets, not of kudos.)\nAmericans (a) Decide to Abuse Chechnya For Marathon Bombing, (b) Confuse Chechnya With the Czech Republic\nWe are a stupid and ignorant people...\nGlenn Beck: Literally Insane?\nWow. This guy has mental problems.\nHe's \"giving\" Obama until Monday to fess about about...I'm not sure... I think he's saying that the marathon bombing was an inside job, and/or that the U.S. government Obama administration spirited the real perpetrator--the Saudi witness?--out of the country to...cover it up? Hard to say exactly.\nMy favorite part is the overwrought hyper-pious tone.\nThis guy is way, way, way off his nut.\nThis is like distilled essence of fever swamp right here.\nWill the Marathon Bomber Be Read His Miranda Rights?\nInteresting, if slightly hysterical, piece on the erosion of Miranda under Holder and the Obama administration. The piece simply presupposes that he won't be read his rights, and goes from there... But the main point of the piece is that Holder's DoJ has pushed an expansive conception of the public safety exception to Miranda. The suspect might very well not be read his rights. And that's worthy of attention.\nI'm fairly pro-Second Amendment. But I really don't get the argument against expanded background checks.\nThe advantages of such checks are obvious.\nWhat are the alleged disadvantages? The most common argument goes like this: if the government goes bad, then, if they have records of who owns guns, and then they can come and get them, and this will make armed resistance to a rogue government impossible.\nFirst, this argument has always seemed weak to me. Suppose the government starts seizing legally-owned firearms. Now...if you're considering armed resistance against the government...what exactly are you waiting for? If they're coming around to seize your firearms, then they've crossed the Rubicon. If armed resistance is warranted, then it's warranted by the very act of trying to seize legally-owned firearms, and if armed resistance is going to happen, then it's going to happen at that point. Consequently, I just don't see how the government could stop armed resistance by seizing firearms.\nBut, second: background checks don't entail a firearm registry. You can check to make sure criminals don't buy guns without keeping records of purchases by non-criminals. And the recent Manchin-Toomy bill actually prohibited the creation of any firearm registry.\nThe failure of this bill seems to me to be bad news indeed. This is a measure that could have really mattered.\nGlenn Greenwald is an Idiot; Torture Edition\nIt's too bad that he's right a fair bit, because he basically just makes reasonable positions seem nauseating. If there's a more self-righteous twit knocking about the interwebs, I haven't encountered him.\nThe torture issue is extremely serious. It needs to be treated seriously. Sadly, Greenwald is so concerned to advertise his own putative moral superiority, and so eager to castigate Obama at every opporunity, that he apparently has no energy left to consider the actual situation faced by the President.\nThere is simply, so far as I can see, no way to prosecute Bush, Cheney et al. for torture. It just cannot happen. The GOP has made the country virtually ungovernalbe as it is. We continue to face an economic near-crisis, Afghanistan drags on, and it's not as if the problem of terrorism has evaporated. Do people deserve to be prosecuted? That seems extremely difficult to deny. What would happen to the country if they were? I shudder to think... A large part of the population is already fanatically anti-Obama--hell, way more than one in ten people apparently believe him to be the Antichrist...\nLook, I am never happy about subordinating principle to utility. But I honestly don't see any alternative here. Trying to prosecute those who approved torture would produce a veritable civil war. It would be likely to hand the White House over to a deranged GOP in 2016--turn it over, that is, to the very people who used 9/11 as a pretext for invading Iraq, and who approved the torturing in the first place.\nSome people seem to live in a fantasy world in which Obama is sitting in the Oval Office making context-free decisions. He could close Guantanamo Bay, he just chooses not to. He has no good reasons for conducting targeted killings, he just likes it. He whimsically decides not to prosecute the fomer President of the United States for torture, when it would be the easiest thing in the world...\nIt makes me sick that we cannot prosecute the torturers. Hell, I'm happy to have my mind changed about this. Allowing torturers to walk free is, in my opinion, no better than allowing rapists to do so.\nBut I simply don't see how anyone can believe that prosecution is a serious option in this case. Even if that is wrong, and it is a serious option, that hardly means that it is an open-and-shut case. Even if we could pull it off, the cost might simply be prohibitively high. And, let me stress, I am not a consequentialist...\nCondemn Obama for making an error here if you will; hell, you're likely to be right. Condemn him, even, for making a serious one. But to pretend that his decision is clearly despicable, that defending Bush, Cheney et al. from justice is some malicious pet project of his...that is lunacy.\nHoping the Boston Marathon Bomber Wasn't One Of You...\nI often hear that, when something like this happens, many Muslims and people of Middle Eastern descent hope that the bomber doesn't turn out to be one of them.\nIf it helps at all, my friends, you'll note that males don't even bother to hope that it wasn't one of us. Because that hope would be futile.\nYou know it was a dude, I know it was a dude, everybody knows it was a dude. We don't even have to ask the question.\nIt goes SO without saying that nobody even seems to think it's weird. It just is what it is. We don't usually even get singled out for it very often.\nSo we basically know that the perpetrator was a male.\nAnd try getting somebody to take a bet, even at 100-1 odds, that it was an elderly Japanese woman...\nTerrorism vs. Just Wanting To Kill People\nI don't see why there's a rush to conclude that the marathon bombings were acts of terrorism. Everything we know about them is perfectly consistent with the hypothesis that the bomber just wanted to kill people. And that's murder (and attempted murder), not terrorism.\n\"Otherkin\"\nAmong the many pathologies fostered by the interwebs is this.\nQuestion: if Smith is clearly not a dragon (or an angel or a cat or a demon or an alien or a wizard from Hogwarts...), but insists that he is one...are others obligated to indulge him?

(h/t Dr. Tao)\nIt doesn't appear to be a serious effort at all.\nThe case for polygamy is simple and straightforward. In fact, there's barely any reason to articulate it: if people want to do it, and there's minimal harm, then the burden is on the anti- position to identify reasons against whatever is in question.\nKeegan makes no serious effort to grapple with the apparent costs of polygamy--costs to women, children, young males, and society at large.\nSo this Slate piece doesn't advance the debate an inch.\nLook, I'm pretty up front about my wildly inconsistent inclinations here. I'm fine with a few instances of three- or four-person marriage here or there. But I'm not fine with large tribes of religious nuts where one dude is \"married\" (in some sense of 'married') to five or ten or twenty women. I don't want the state sanctioning that sort of insanity. I don't see how a line can be drawn in terms of numbers, so my current guess is that we should expect to draw the legal line at two people.\nNeedless to say, there's nothing wrong with three people falling in love and spending their lives together. But the question is whether the state should sanction the relationship and give it the standard protections and privileges. I hate to think in these terms, but the fact of the matter is that probably we will never be able to draw the lines perfectly; some good people and some admirable relationships will, probably, fail to be captured no matter how we divide things up. What we want to do is minimize the number of errors, but without sanctioning and encouraging destructive/crazy types of relationships (see above).\nLook, in the history of humankind, there have, no doubt, been many admirable relationships between people we now consider to be of the age of consent and people we now consider to be under the age of consent. But that doesn't obviously mean that we should lower the age of consent.\nIncidentally, nobody's mentioned the insurance-related problems for polygamy. We have a system of employer-provided insurance. Weird, but we have it. (Will the ACA help us break away from that? Yes, right? I can't remember...) We've also got a system that has tended to shift more and more of our salaries into benefits. And health care is very expensive. I don't have kids. In effect, part of my salary goes to provide health care for my colleagues' children. Hey, ok. Raisin' the next generation and all that... But I don't want to pay for other people's three wives and ten kids. The system would go haywire if hiring one person meant providing health care for twenty people. This is not a fatal objection; there are possible ways around it. But we would have to find those ways.\nI'm not sure what we should do in this vicinity, but I'm pretty damn sure of this: a rush to legalize polygamy would be a terrible error. Lots of thought and research and, probably, experimentation at the state level (Utah: laboratory of democracy?) needs to be conducted before we go and do anything possibly crazy. This is the kind of thing that makes me sad that we don't have a real conservative party that, while non-crazy, would urge that any change in this respect be slow and circumspect.\nBall Bearings / Claymores?\nSince nobody but the usual crew reads this stuff, I'll feel free to note that I've been hypothesizing about Claymores since I first heard this had happened, and heard the reports about ball bearings.\nJust speculation.

So there's more than enough crap in play here already. Now add a layer of objections from the left about studies that aren't sufficiently PC and you get...even crappier crap.\nThe object of TP's ire is a study alleging to show that women prefer men with larger penises. This, we are told, promotes \"gender-biased stereotypes.\" (Note: they mean sex-biased.)\nWhy is any of this sexist? Well, of course, it isn't. The line used to be that size didn't matter to women. Was that sexist? Of course not. No claim in this vicinity is inherently sexist. Just because you can make up some vague, hand-wavy story about the bad motives some theoretical person might have for wanting to believe claims of this kind, that doesn't make them sexist.\nOther studies have apparently drawn similar conclusions...but TP dismisses this important fact by noting that the report in question indicates that the past results\u201chave been disputed as sexist, or scientifically flawed, or both.\u201d This is, apparently, supposed to show that the current study is sexist as well.\nScientific results are sexist only if they aim at proving some conclusion in order to cast one of the sexes in a bad light. There is no indication that this study is sexist, nor any explanation of why the claim that women prefer men with bigger penises might be sexist. If anything, you'd think it'd be guys who'd object...\nLook, women either do or do not, on average, prefer dudes with larger junk. Neither of those two options shows anything bad about women.

The contested premise is:\n(SSMP) If SSM should be legal then polygamous marriage should be legal\nSSM opponents think the reasoning should run like so:\n(1) (SSMP) If SSM should be legal, then polygamous marriage should be legal\n(2) Polygamous marriage should not be legal\n(3) SSM should not be legal\nSome SSM advocates are willing to accept (SSMP) and run:\n(2) SSM should be legal\n(3) Polygamous marriage should be legal\n(One man's modus tollens is, after all, another's modus ponens...)\nHowever, most advocates don't try to run this argument, for at least one of these two reasons:\n(A) Polygamous marriage currently has zero chance of social and political acceptance\n(B) There are non-terrible reasons to think that polygamous marriage is morally bad and/or socially harmful\nThat is: PM is DOA politically, and one need not have overtly retrograde attitudes to oppose it. So PM is, currently at least, a loser on political grounds, and legitimately morally suspect--as is anything linked to it. So it's not a good idea to link same-sex marriage to polygamous marriage.\nI take it that (A) is clear, but (B) less so. I won't delve too deeply into that here, though casual acquaintance with the sociological literature (which is all that I have, and that's actually being rather generous to me) indicates that there is at least some evidence that PM is bad for women, bad for younger, less well-established males, and bad for children. (Bad, that is, even on a relatively thin conception of badness.) A few frisky triads here and there aren't going to bring down society--the important objections are not puritanical ones. But lots and lots of large families with one male and several females may very well do significant harm.\nHowever, the moral argument comes out, the currently political landscape is clear: If the legality of SSM entails the legality of PM, then it's no SSM for the U.S.\nSo what about (SSMP)? Is the conditional true? Does accepting SSM require us to accept PM?\nThough SSM advocates scoff at the conditional, the argument for it is fairly clear (though I deluded myself for years into thinking that it wasn't). Here's a quick way to put it:\nThere are two competing conceptions of marriage in play, one more traditional, and one more liberal, to wit:\n(TM) Marriage is a union between two people of different sexes who love each other.\n(LM) Marriage is a union between two people who love each other.\nLiberals criticize the (putatively) traditional conception of marriage on the grounds that it arbitrarily restricts marriage to heterosexuals. They liken this arbitrary restriction to that against miscegenation. That is, they argue that we can all agree that TM constitutes moral and social progress over:\n(RM) Marriage is a union between two people of different sexes and the same race who love each other.\nLM is then represented as constituting the same kind of progress relative to TM that TM constituted relative to RM. The general idea is that the (morally and rationally) arbitrary restrictions in RM were stripped away, giving us TM, and that the proposed movement to LM is warranted by the same type of idea, i.e. the removal of morally/rationally arbitrary restrictions.\nConservatives tend to argue, of course, that the restrictions in TM are non-arbitrary, invoking premises about reproduction and so forth (which I'll also skip over here, as they're well known.*)\nNow. The trajectory of the argument so far seems to leave LM open to the objection that the proper conception of marriage is really:\n(M) Marriage is a union between/among people who love each other.\nAdvocates of M can argue that the restriction of marriage to two people is every bit as arbitrary as the restriction of marriage to two people of different sexes, or to two people of the same race. The insight that supports SSM is that it is possible for two people of the same sex to love each other. The insight that supports PM is that it is possible for more than two people to love one another. If marriage is, in fact, primarily about love (I leave that unspecific, but you see the idea), then that seems to warrant both SSM and PM.\nThat is to say, there is a fairly clear argument for (SSMP). And that is to say that there does seem to be a very slippery slippery slope from same-sex marriage to polygamous marriage. That's not happy news, but there it is.\nThere are a couple of obvious options open here, not to mention the unobvious ones:\n1. Give up on SSM\n2. Accept PM\n3. Find some other way to distinguish between SSM and PM\nBoth 1 and 2 seem like bad options to me. So that seem to leave some version of 3. The most obvious version of 3 involves appealing to (B) (above). Such responses would also have to involve some premises to the effect that a legal institution mustn't be likely to do too much harm. I'm not happy with that position, but that is what I currently, tentatively accept.\nBut my point here isn't to try to solve this sticky problem, but, rather, just to note that I think that the old liberal line that the polygamy objection to SSM is patently invalid is, well, false. I, like other advocates of same-sex marriage, tended to dismiss the objection. Some advocates try to kill it illegitimately with purely rhetorical responses to the effect that it is \"offensive\" to even raise the issue. But that's BS. The problem is a real one, and it ought to be addressed squarely. Even though I'm not sure how to do so.\n* Though, incidentally, if the case for TM is largely a case about reproduction, a different kind of case will have to be made against PM. (And we're not even mentioning the well-known point that a reproductive conception of marriage would rule out infertile couples and those that elect not to reproduce.)\nAntibiotic-Resistant Bugs Can Move from Animals To Humans\nThe meat industry is, in effect, knowingly raising the probability of a health catastrophe in order to make a few more bucks. We've put in place a system that cranks out antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and the people who profit from it are lobbying like crazy to make sure that sanity does not prevail.\nYet another very good reasons to avoid supporting the meat industry.\nI'm an omnivore, and I don't think that there is anything wrong with humanely killing animals for food. But I don't think you should torture them, and I'm personally against the creation of superbugs that can kill us all. I'm funny like that.\nCuccinelli Tries to Recriminalize Sex In the OD\nCuccinelli is bad news.\nIn this case, he's using the fact that a 47-year-old dude was trying to solicit oral sex from a 17-year-old girl as his stalking-horse. But, given his lunatic views, it's pretty clear what's probably really motivating him.\nTerry McAuliffe is our only hope. [Um, there is an implied facepalm here, in case that's not obvious.]\n(Although, let me say that I do think that there should be some legal recourse for women of any age who are disrespectfully and/or aggressively propositioned for sex. I don't see what that's not a species of verbal assault.)\nCzinger: \"Sexual Regret Is Not Rape\"\nOf most interest to me is the objection to the grossly defective term \"rape culture.\" This is a term that is so loosely defined, and thrown around so irresponsibly, that it creates a kind of conceptual train wreck. It would be bad enough if we just encountered relatively clear sentences containing the unclear term--like \"we live in a rape culture. Then at least we could simply ask for clarification and hold the proposition up for confirmation or disconfirmation. Instead, the term is typically thrown in as part of a kind of presupposition. So you're more likely to encounter claims like \"In addition to having to deal with rape culture, women must...\"\nIt should go without saying that a rejection of the confused term 'rape culture' in no way entails that rape is not an enormous problem. It's too bad this even has to be said.\n\"Relativism\" Watch: Tom Martin on Same-Sex Marriage\nI can't say I agree with much here... Largely because I'm kinda with Popper insofar as I think it'd be crazy to take the Republic seriously as advice about how to run the state.\nHere I'm just interested in this bit:\nThe democrat, a free spirit who is not guided by moral principle, is one step away from a tyrant; He is a relativist who refuses to distinguish higher from lower, right from wrong, or good from evil.\nFor the record, that's not relativism. The view that there is no real distinction between the right and the wrong is moral nihilism. (What it would mean, strictly speaking, to say that someone \"refuses to distinguish\" right from wrong...well, who knows?)\nSchools Push Propaganda: In Which I Agree With...George F. Will\nGlenn Greenwald vs. Sam Harris: Is \"Islamophobia\" Afoot?\nIn my view, both of these guys are bad news.\nGreenwald is in typical form: barely-contained rage: check. Fawning over Chomsky: check. Cheap rhetorical tricks: check.\nBut he seems to rather have the goods on Harris, who has gone rather over the top about Islam. Opposing the ground zero mosque is pretty damn hard to excuse...\nIt seems to me that a rational person can believe that contemporary Islam is more worrisome than most contemporary religions. It may not be true, but you do not have to be bigoted against Islam to believe it. One might argue that full and objective appreciation of the evidence tends to disconfirm the claim--maybe so, maybe not. But the evidence that I have--and I have more than most people have--is consistent with the hypothesis that Islam represents more of a threat to liberal democracy than, say, Buddhism.\nAnd that is something that Greenwald seems to deny. He does explicitly admit that criticism of Islam is permissible; though he seems unwilling to acknowledge that one might reasonably conclude that the problems with Islam are weightier than problems with most other religions. Again: maybe they are, maybe they aren't. But it isn't a crazy view, and one need not be a bigot to accept it.\nOne might reasonably argue that the burden of proof should be unusually high on claims like: \"Islam represents more of a threat to the West than Christianity does.\" I think that's a reasonable view. But it's one that might also reasonably be rejected.\nBut I think I'll just ignore this dust-up\nMark Kleiman, Washington State's New Pot Czar\nOr \"Pot Head\" as some are calling him...\nAnother big step toward a sane drug policy.\nGeorgia High School Still Has Segregated Proms\nI...am...speechless....\nFriedersdorf: The War On Drugs Is Far More Immoral Than Most Drug Use\nIt's easy for philosophers to forget that the terms 'moral' and 'morality' have been so corrupted by the right that they are now thought by some to concern only puritanical prohibitions against, e.g., sex, drugs and, well, you know...\nFriedersdorf is absolutely right when he points out that throwing a kid in jail with murderers and rapists is far more immoral than smoking weed. And that's not to mention all the other immoral aspects of the \"war on drugs,\" e.g. bringing death and destruction to Mexico and much of the rest of the Americas.\nBut Friedersdorf doesn't mention the most salient immoral aspect of the drug war: denying individuals their right to freedom in the private sphere. It's not as consequential as encouraging murderers to murder...but it's in some sense the central, original crime of the state in all this.\n'Illegal Immigrant': Kevin Drum Acknowledges the Foolishness\nThough he's pretty low-key about it:\nI've used \"illegal immigrant\" before, and I've always had a hard time buying the argument that it's an inherently insulting term. But times change, and I generally adhere to AP style since that's what I learned many decades ago. Cranky stubbornness aside, I certainly don't have any reason to make an exception here, so I won't. Illegal immigrant is now out.\nBut I do still have a problem. AP apparently now feels that there's no acceptable way to refer to people who are in the country illegally. Neither \"undocumented immigrant\" nor \"unauthorized immigrant,\" is acceptable, and neither is anything else. Labels are flatly not allowed, despite the fact that we label people all the time. Kevin Drum is a blogger. Barack Obama is a politician. Etc.\nThis leaves us with constructions like \"John Doe is a person who immigrated to the United States illegally.\" Or: \"A bill pending in Congress would bar immigrants who are in the country illegally from receiving Medicaid.\" Clunkiness aside, I guess we can all get used to that, but I'm not sure how it especially serves the cause of accuracy.\nDrum is eminently reasonable, and lots more cool-headed than I am. But, just for the record:\n1. You have a hard time buying the argument that 'illegal immigrant' is insulting because the arguments are preposterously bad, and the term is in no way insulting.\n2. The policy of sticking to AP style is a good one...but the policy of knuckling under to the PC Word Police is not a particularly good one.\n3. Correct: there is now no convenient, PC way to refer to illegal immigrants. But a dopey, smarmy PC term that gains some rhetorical advantage for the lefty position will come down the pike soon enough. So don't fear.\n4. Of course we label people--i.e. describe them with single words or short phrases--all the time. I'm a blogger. Kevin's a wonk. Etc. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. And there is no avoiding it.\n5. No, none of this serves the cause of accuracy. PC reformulations rarely do. See: 'gender reassignment surgery' for 'sex change operation.'\nLook, a much better reason for shunning the term goes like this: for no good reason, the group in question just finds the phrase insulting. So, hey, how about being nice about this and avoiding its use?\nThat is about a million times more sensible than the crackpot reasons being thrown around.\nThough, of course, if we actually said this, we'd have to acknowledge that it's really just a relatively small group of activists and PC \"social justice\" types who have decided the term is \"offensive.\" And then we'd really have to ask whether we were going to allow ourselves to be terminologically pushed around by such people for really bad reasons.\nAnd that discussion is not going to be had by liberals.\nGOP: Our Ideas Are Fine, But We Didn't Communicate Them Well\nOne of the last refuges of the intellectually dishonest...\nLook, I'm happy for you guys to believe this.

Very short.\nJebus. How is every body so stupid all of a sudden.\nO.k. Just go ahead and strike that 'all of a sudden' bit...\nAP Drops \"Illegal Immigrants\". For Stupid Reasons\nI really hate the PC word police. They frequently demand (as if they were in a position to demand) that we change our ways of referring to people, generally do so for bad reasons, and generally propose new ways of referring that pretend to be more precise than the old ways, but are, in fact, less so.\nOne of my favorites was their demand that we call American Indians \"Native Americans,\" despite the fact that most American Indians preferred \"American Indians\"...\n\"Illegal alien\" is absolutely fine, and in no way derogatory, but people got their panties in a wad about it. I still use it, given that there's no good reason not to. \"Illegal immigrant,\" they demanded, was the preferable alternative. Many of us knew what was coming next--it was just a matter of time. And, indeed, \"illegal immigrant\" is now on the terminology Index as well. So it has been decreed by those whose sensibilities are delicate beyond measure. So the Word has been handed down to the rest of us...\nI'll be ignoring the decree...but I expect most will cave to it...\nOh, there's some made-up bullshit about why we are not to use the verboten terminology anymore. One version goes: actions are illegal, people aren't.\nWhat utter, unmitigated horseshit.\nEveryone knows what such a term means. \"Illegal immigrant\" means \"immigrant here illegally.\" There is nothing whatsoever wrong with the term. There is nothing even vaguely derogatory about it. Similar terms get used all the time, and there is no suggestion that \"the person is illegal.\" I've heard: 'Illegal gun-owner,' 'illegal pot-grower', 'Illegal truck-driver.\" I've also heard 'illegal midwife,' 'illegal contractor,' and 'illegal electrician.' God knows how many we'd turn up if we thought about it for a bit. None of these terms is derogatory. The meaning of each one is perfectly clear. No one has ever complained that to call someone an illegal contractor is to say that they are, qua person, illegal. Such a person is a person who illegally performs electircal work. This is not complicated.\nJesus this is some stupid nonsense.\nWe should start taking bets one what the arbiters of PC terminology will decree to be the Permissible Terminology here...\nI'm going to guess:\nDifferently Legal Americans.\nBut perhaps: Citizens In Potentia...\nIt's really too bad that time is wasted on such nonsense, too bad that people knuckle under to it, and too bad that it will, inevitably, just alienate people on the right who are, sadly, somewhat more sensible than those on the left in this respect. And harder to push around. Pushing mindless, ungrounded pieties on them (not to mention the rest of us) does absolutely nothing positive. This is little more than an attempt to score points in the debate by arbitrarily changing terminology in a way that de-emphisizes the fact that the relevant people are here illegally.\nReally, really, really stupid and off-putting in my book.\nIndiana Bill Would Make It Illegal To Expose Factory Farms, Clear-Cutting and Fracking\nALEC strikes again.\n\"If You're Good At Lying, You're Good At Everything\": Top Ten Godlman-Sachs Elevator Quotes\nLOL at these assholes.\nKinda makes you wish there were a Hell...\nThe \"Online Mean Girls Club\"\nOr \"crazy girls' club\" as I'd rather put it...\nSensible post on online feminism by Sadie Smith.\nI don't agre with her about 'cis.' I mean, she is, I think, wrong to say that it's an insult or an affront...it's just stupid, like so much PC terminology. It'll die out like 'co' and 'cos' and other ear-offending lefty terminology. So, yeah, it's dopey, but I can't agree that it's insulting.\nIt's too bad that feminism is crashing and burning like this. I remember, back in the day, when it was full of promise, a sensible, rational, liberal movement. There are still a lot of good people and good thoughts out there, though they tend not to be represented by the loudest voices. Nevertheless, I have full faith that the level-headed core of the movement will continue to make progress, and will still be here ten years from how, after the current wave of loons has burned out. The PCs of the '90s flamed out spectacularly--though, sadly, not until after bequeathing us a renewed conservativism. Thanks, guys! Anyway, so, too, will this wave of extremists pass away.\nAnd, on the bright side: they're just annoying, they're not really dangerous. And that's not true with every political movement...\nHowever, in case you think that American conservatism is dead: well...it isn't. Among the many things that might/will help breath life back into it...or...raise it...back to undead status...so it can ...rampage across the...well...you see what I'm trying to say here...is this crap. There's little that drives people into the arms of the right faster than the wild-eyed, shrill cant of uber-lefties all hopped-up on self-righteousness. If you doubt that, check out the early pages of David Brock's The Right-Wing Noise Machine sometime, in which he ponders how he, a basically reasonable dude, ended up being a right-wing propagandist. The answer: he got so fed up with being brow-beaten by shrill lefties at Berkeley that the right started to look like a bastion of reason to him. Imagine that if you can...\nI'd like to see sensible liberals be better about standing up to these people, but they just don't seem to have it in 'em. Well, who knows? People can surprise you sometimes...\nPrisons and The Aryan Brotherhood\nYet another reason to have a healthy arsenal to my mind...\n...though, um, not all liberals agree...\nMy friend Peter the Public Defender is a ridiculously smart guy. Downright wise even. Years ago, in a conversation, he referred to prisons as \"monster factories,\" and that's always stuck with me. Here's how it works: first, take a bunch of murderous, psychopathic fuckwits. Then, add in some poor schmucks who were stupid or unlucky enough to get busted for smoking weed or whatever. You might have started wtih 50 psychopaths and 50 schmucks. But after a couple of years, you've got something more like 75 psychopaths and 25 (broken, PTSD-addled) schmucks. The policy of throwing a bunch of non-violent drug offenders in with murderous lunatics to play Lord of the Flies...well, not the smartest idea ever...\nAmong other bad things, this encourages people to join gangs just to survive. Now, I doubt that the Aryan Brotherhood really is a major threat. But it ain't good. It's not the sort of thing you want your policies to be promoting. It's like using public funds to feed people paint chips or something. Not smart. I'm fine with locking up real crooks. Hell, I'm all for it. I'm certainly not a liberal criminal-coddler. But the combination of (a) having a shameful prison system in which psychopaths can basically run amok, and (b) throwing a bunch of people in there who aren't even real criminals... Not smart. Hell, not even sane...\nSo, anyway, there's that link to brighten your day...\nYOU AGENTS OF THE KYRIARCHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nWe actually need a new type of punctuation for internet \"SJ\" types.\nExclamation points aren't nearly shrill enough...\nFallacies On Parade: Donna Freitas on Hookup Culture\nMy god this is terrible.\nIt's like a joke piece written for a critical thinking textbook or something.\nSeriously, the Washington Post has nothing better to print that this stuff?\nStoring Energy in Trains\nConservatives and the Arms Race Between Civilians and the Military\nSo, I've mentioned this before, but here's someone with a big platform now making the point.\nAlthough I tend to favor Second Amendment protections of some fairly robust variety, and to do so in some part because I think the populace should have the ability to stand up to the government if absolutely necessary (and, incidentally, to stand up for it in case of invasion). So view obviously tends to be more popular among conservatives than among liberals...though I've never understood why.\nAnyhoo, though I'm an advocate of a strong military, I also think that our military could be lots, lots, LOTS smaller and still count as very strong. I also don't understand the conservative inclination to have a much, much bigger and more powerful military than we need.\nAnd, if you advocate both (a) a preposterously strong military and (b) the view that civilians should be well-armed enough to stand up to that military if necessary, then you basically advocate policies that generate a kind of arms race between civilians and the military.\nAnd I think that's crazy.\nInstead, if we throttled back on the military, reducing it's size and power to something like reasonable levels, then even those who think civilians should be well-armed enough to stand up to the government as a last resort could comfortably accept less civilian firepower floating around.",

        "raw_content": "Guideline Ideas For Plans In Inflammation In Ankle\nPeople who suffer a bad sprain should have the injury assessed by an appropriate healthcare professional like a doctor or physical therapist to determine the severity of the injury and to get, at a minimum, advice and instruction on how to manage the injury, said co-lead author Brenda Brouwer of Queens University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. http://www.feelfreemaldives.com/feetmedicaldoctor/2016/11/09/useful-tips-on-key-details-of-pain-in-lower-leg/The researchers recruited 503 people aged 16 years and older who suffered an acute ankle sprain without other injuries or mobility-limiting conditions. Half of the patients received standard emergency department care, medical assessment and a page of instructions for at-home management, including wearing a brace, rest, ice, compression, elevation, pain medication and gradual return to weight-bearing activities. The remaining half of patients received the same information in addition to supervised physiotherapy, including up to seven 30-minute clinic visits for exercise sessions designed to decrease pain and swelling, increase range of motion, strength and exercise tolerance. \u201cThe therapy involves an initial assessment of the injury to determine the structures involved, the associated symptoms such as pain, swelling, bruising, and the development of a treatment plan to get the individual back to pre-injury function,\u201d Brouwer told Reuters Health by email. \u201cHome exercises and strategies to promote normal joint mobility are prescribed.\u201d In the usual care group, 37 percent of people had achieved \u201cexcellent recovery\u201d by the three-month point, compared to 43 percent of people in the physiotherapy group. o que e bunionetteThat difference is not large enough to rule out the possibility it was due to chance, according to the report published in BMJ. There was little important difference between the groups at six months post-injury. \u201cAs such, it may give pause to individuals who have experienced a simple ankle sprain in terms of deciding whether or not to access physiotherapy, it\u2019s a choice that our findings suggest will not impact recovery providing they have had their injury assessed and received general instruction on how to manage it,\u201d Brouwer said.

Excessive application of ice can lead to frozen nerve and other health complications. At times, crutches, boots, and braces may have to be used in treating the condition as well. You try to dodge the opponent and in the process you hurt your ankle and collapse on the ground. Treatment: A severe chronic case of venous insufficiency will require surgery and the treatment is complicated. Bone spurs are actually the result of our body\u2019s attempt to repair certain damage. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that is associated with the wear and tear of the cartilage, which is a connective tissue that is found at the end of the bones in the joints. Inflammation in the ankles can cause a lot of pain and discomfort, sometimes resulting in swollen ankles as well. If you have seen that you suffer from cramps mainly in summer or after your workout, it can also be due to electrolyte imbalance, which you can rectify by consuming electrolytes mixed with water. Some home therapies that can help reduce the swelling are as follows: You must lie down and keep your legs elevated above your heart, for some time.\nicd-9 neuropathic foot pain\nbunion aid cvs\nbunion pain at night\nhttp://www.chinadragontour.com/wwwchinadragontourcom6060/2016/10/15/some-basic-insights-on-rational-programs-of-chiropody-bunion/",

The first poster for the film received a bit of a mixed reaction, as it was very mysterious and did not provide any hints as to the storyline of the film.

After all, WALL-E was Pixar\u2019s foray into a science-fiction inspired story, and it was easily one of the studio\u2019s most original pieces of work.

        "raw_content": "Interview: Emily Lazar (SEPTEMBER MOURNING)\nSeptember Mourning is the brainchild of miss Emily Lazar, and it was founded in 2007 as a transmedia project, with a musical side that started to develop in the following year. Due to a lineup change in 2010, Emily remained the only touring member, and she's here on playdeadnation to tell us more!\npdn: Hello, Emily! Please tell me, how was the band formed and what was the project about initially? Also, how did you decide upon this band name?\nEmily: First off I like to describe this as an art project with a musical element to it :) The project is based around a storyline of a girl who is a reaper and has the power to take souls from the living but also can replace those souls with those she's already taken. She has the power to change fate. The project was conceived by myself and Marc Silvestri of Top Cow (comics)\nSeptember Mourning is the Reaper name of the girl in the story. Personally, I had a friend who was very close to me die a few years ago in September... this project, for me, is a bit of a homage to him.\npdn: At what age did you start getting involved in music, and under what circumstances?\nEmily: I went to a performing arts school for high school where I learned theater and singing and dance. I first stepped on stage at age 4. Performing has always been in my blood :)\npdn: Who were some bands, people that influenced you in your art?\nEmily: Marc Silvestri as an artist has always been an influence on me. Music wise.... i always enjoy the risk takers and the theatrical ones, and above all the strong songwriters... Manson, Reznor, Slipknot, Kiss, Gwar, Nightwish, Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie, Evanescence, 30 Seconds to Mars....\npdn: What would best describe your live shows, in a few words?\nEmily: A wall of sound heading straight for your face; energy personified; theatrical fantasy.\npdn: You've played with a few great bands so far; who was your favourite artist to share the stage with?\nEmily: Marilyn Manson by far has been the leader. He was so inspiring. I learned so much on that tour. It was awesome.\npdn: Also, who else would you like to tour with in the future, if you could pick anyone?\nEmily: NIN.\npdn: What state is September Mourning currently in?\nEmily: We are in preorder for our European release of our album, \"Melancholia\" which drops May 18th.... you can find it on import through THIS link ;)\npdn: Which would be some of your other main passions, preoccupations except music?\nEmily: What else is there in life? haha.... well hmm.... i love graphic novels/comics and I love gaming too :)\npdn: What are your project's plans for the near future?\nEmily: We are working on new material and an online series for MTV Geek, the release of the comic book, launching our website and touring coming up soon as well... busy busy!\npdn: Thank you so much! Anything you would like to add for your friends, fans? :)\nEmily: Yes.... This project is all about our fans... We wanted to create a world for you all. A place for you to escape to when the weight of this one gets a bit too heavy. We have so much for you all. You have always been there for us and we will always be there for you!

Free standing Post Offices don't get much smaller than this. But it is big on charm and long in the tooth. The post office has been here for 125 years and still going strong. The Bridal Veil Historical Preservation Society Anniversary Party is l0am to 3pm on July 7th, 2012 and that happens to be my wife and mine's wedding anniversary - how serendipitous bein's that Bridal Veil is world famous with brides. If you are a 7-7-07 like we are, come on out to Bridal Veil Post Office and celebrate your fifth and their 125th at this one-of-a-kind Post Box with a Story.\nA look at their world famous drop slot. Not much to write home about on that, but, you could write home or at least send 'em a post card, so whadaya want, gold trim??\nSPECIAL POST MARKED: Here's a look at the cancel stamps you can request, and who could fault a bride for wanting to spruce up her invites mailed right here?\nJust past the post office is the Historic Route 30 which takes you to Bridal Veil Falls and all the other waterfalls along this \"Gorge\"geous, did we make that punny enough, waterfall drive. Hiking is available too, here's a look at the well groomed and very well marked hiking area for Angel's Rest Trail.\nThe lord's pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance in this watershed has to be Multnomah Falls. It's the second highest waterfall in the continental US, and you don't want to miss the hotdog stand there either.\nFollow Highway 84 a small number of miles east and you'll encounter Bonneville Dam which has wonderful free tours, locks, fish ladders and is pumping out more electricity than California, Oregon or Washington can muster toward a Brownout situation. Check out a 450 pound sturgeon... take the dam tour! if you want.\nJust 8 miles past Bonneville you'll see exits for Cascade Locks where your car will cost you a $1 toll to cross the Bridge of the Gods. Directly on the Washington Shore you'll see this sign.\nAnd this sign. The Pacific Crest Trail is a hiking trail that is open to anyone who wants to hike fourteen of the highest mountain passes in North America all on one trail from Canada to Mexico. This otherwise alpine trail crosses the Columbia River Gorge on the Bridge of the Gods, so if you have been over the Bridge of the Gods you have been on the Pacific Crest Trail... with your car. That's not typically allowed, although there are places the trail aligns with roads.\n(special thanks to S. Brennan and D. Reid DeMeo for the geek factoids!) The Postal Service has the world\u2019s largest civilian fleet and the world\u2019s largest alternative fuel\u2013enabled fleet of vehicles.\n(Maybe they should be inventing my flying car? Put at least one guy on it? Hmmm, a flying mail jeep, didn't DaVinci draw one of those?) :)\nJust off Highway 84 twenty-some miles East of Por...",

The 1st Bhairon Singh Shekhawat Life Time Achievement Honour in Public Service was also conferred on Shri Pawan Kumar Chamling, Chief Minister of Sikkim on the occasion.\nAddressing the gathering the President said he was honoured to be invited to deliver the inaugural Memorial Lecture instituted in memory of our former Vice-President Shri Bhairon Singh Shekhawat, an outstanding statesman and a man of the masses.\nThe President stated that Shri Shekhawat and he shared a long history of friendship.

He said that Shri Chamling has made unique contribution to the State of Sikkim which has emerged as a role model.\nIn his Memorial Lecture, the President spoke about the History of Parliamentary Democracy in India. He said that he had outlined the history of representative Government for a specific purpose which was to underline the fact that if prominent legislators of pre-independence days with limited powers, could have done so much, how much more can be done by our MPs, MLAs and MLCs of today.\nThe President said that the 3 Ds \u2013 Debate, Dissension and Decision are essential in a Parliamentary democracy.Democracy should provide for an enabling environment which helps every section of the society to fully participate in the process of governance.",

        "raw_content": "TALENT SPOTTER: ALICE WEIGHTMAN, HANSON SEARCH\nFebruary 4, 2016 Sarah Stimson\t0 Comments Alice Weightman, Hanson Search, recruitment\nNAME: Alice Weightman\nCompany: Hanson Search\nJob title: Founder and CEO\nTwitter: @aliceweightman\nLinkedIn: Alice Weightman\nWebsite: www.hansonsearch.com\nEach day varies so much, that\u2019s what I love about the job! As a consultant at Hanson Search, I work with leading agencies and in-house teams to find the best talent in the industry. I am networking constantly, making business connections and meeting great new candidates.\nNow running the business, it\u2019s equally as varied, but in different ways and with different priorities. There\u2019s much more travel for one thing. I work with global clients \u2013 from the UAE to the USA and beyond. I often speak at industry events and attend conferences worldwide. I still run client work and am actively involved in internal recruitment and training, but I\u2019m also building the business internationally. That means that travelling and meeting people at those global industry events is crucial.\ndon\u2019t hide the fact that you took a different route \u2013 celebrate it and let it be known.\nIs it essential to be a graduate to get a job in PR?\nIt definitely helps to have a degree, but increasingly companies are looking at the whole package and alternative ways of attracting top talent. If you are a graduate, make sure you have done something worthwhile outside of university. There\u2019s more to do than studying and drinking! It\u2019s not easy landing your first job. You\u2019ll need an impressive CV with plenty of work experience and interests outside your degree.\nIf you aren\u2019t a graduate, you\u2019ll need to think of a different approach. There are plenty of examples today of successful business people who made it without a degree, but unfortunately they are usually exceptions to the rule. To succeed, you will need to be intrinsically motivated, gain as much practical work experience as possible, and work on making a name for yourself. Go to networking events, meet industry people, blog, and get involved in conversations on social media. Show that you know the industry but also that you are keen to learn.\nCompanies like hiring people with an alternative or diverse background. If you know you have what it takes for the job, don\u2019t hide the fact that you took a different route \u2013 celebrate it and let it be known.\nI look for people who are bright, passionate, and engaging. It\u2019s important to me that there\u2019s an instant rapport. Strong written and verbal communication skills are a must. They should be on top of current events, have an interest in brands, politics or business. I want to see that they dig deep into a certain topic \u2013 to demonstrate their professional passions. At the end of the day, people buy from people, so I look to hire individuals who embody the core values of my business.\nI also check to see if they are active on social media. Online reputation is of enormous importance. They should be involved in the industry online, not just posting selfies or what they had for dinner.\nWe advertise some vacancies, but as a search firm we mainly headhunt and gain referrals. We use in-depth research skills and techniques to source the best talent in the industry. We also maintain an extensive network of \u201cHanson Friends\u201d. That is an invaluable resource and offers many referral opportunities.\nRecruiters use LinkedIn and increasingly other social platforms \u2013 Facebook and Twitter \u2013 to headhunt,\nHas much changed in how PR practitioners are recruited in the last five years?\nThe biggest change has been the impact of social media on recruitment. It\u2019s much easier and faster to validate what people say in their CVs about their interests and skills. It\u2019s also easier to get an idea of the way they communicate, their network and professionalism.\nRecruiters use LinkedIn and increasingly other social platforms \u2013 Facebook and Twitter \u2013 to headhunt, so it\u2019s important to keep an up-to-date profile.\nWhich sector is the most difficult to recruit and why?\nI think healthcare communications is the most difficult to recruit in. I have over 15 years of experience recruiting in the industry and it has definitely been the toughest sector. It\u2019s also been one of the most rewarding. If you\u2019re interested in social issues \u2013 raising awareness of rare diseases or emerging, life-changing initiatives \u2013 healthcare communications is fascinating. You can make a real difference. More people should get into it!\nThere are so many. David Gallagher does a great weekly blog where he interviews senior PR people. He offers a good snap shot of the industry and what it\u2019s like working in PR.\nI\u2019m always checking PR Week, PR Moment, Brand Republic, and the Holmes Report for industry news, trends, and upcoming events.\nWhat else? Well I can\u2019t fail to mention the Hanson Search blog! My colleagues and I write regularly on industry topics and hiring trends.\nBe strategic \u2013 you need to think of the long game.\nBrush up your LinkedIn profile and CV. Run it past a senior head-hunter. They can help you position yourself in the right way, highlight the right skills, and make you the most competitive.\nThink about the skills you have to offer and your major achievements. Be strategic \u2013 you need to think of the long game. What sectors or companies are going to be interested in you? Will they offer you the progression you are after?\nDon\u2019t move for the sake of moving. Loyalty is looked upon favourably and hopping around can hurt your career prospects. Likewise, know when you\u2019ve plateaued. That\u2019s when you should make a move.\nIntegration is increasingly important in PR \u2013 as it is across communications and marketing teams. Make sure you know your business and understand the wider objectives. If you keep your eyes on the big picture, you will be more successful and valuable in your role.\nPR is a great industry. It\u2019s full of interesting people and businesses. You will learn more than just business skills, but skills for life. You can carve a successful career in the industry if you find the right role.\nThe hours can be long. You need to be good with people \u2013 a good communicator and networker. But if you are passionate, then go for it!\n\u2190 ACADEMIC INSIGHT: ELLIOT PILL, CARDIFF UNIVERSITY\n#PRPROCHAT & #COMMSCHAT \u2192",

        "raw_content": "The report, which surveyed 2030 consumers, suggests that today\u2019s youth are buying more vinyl than any other age group under 50. ICM Research conducted the survey in support of Record Store Day which was last Saturday (the 20th of April). The aim of the day was to encourage customers to buy physical records from independent stores.\nThe report also noted that out of around 2,200 independent record stores in the 1980s, just under 300 are still going today. However, even though there has been a steady decline in shops, vinyl sales have actually steadily increased since 2004, with over 389,000 recordings in the format being sold last year, according to BPI figures.\nArtists themselves are also embracing the retro music form and releasing special EPs to keep the trend going. Foals, Jake Bugg, Everything Everything and Tom Odell are just a few of today\u2019s musicians embracing vinyl. Tom Odell commented on his personal passion for scouring stores, \"It becomes more of an experience buying a record,\u201d he enthused. Record Store Day UK organiser Spencer Hickman is thrilled at the encouragement of artists today, \u201cIt's like so many kids now coming into record stores, when you have Arctic Monkeys saying, 'We go to record shops, we buy vinyl', you can't ask for anything more than that.\u201d \u2018Coexist\u2019 by The XX was named the UK\u2019s biggest selling vinyl in 2012, helping overall sales of the medium increase by 15.3% on 2011\u2019s figures.\nMaurice Fyles, research director at ICM Research said, \u201cOur research shows that independent record stores are driving and fulfilling a growing demand for music on vinyl \u2013 from new Limited Editions to second-hand collectibles. With the closure of many branches of HMV some might expect that demand for music shops and physical formats are declining \u2013 our research rejects this. Rather, when there is so much music available to buy or download online, people\u2019s needs from the high street record store have changed. Independent record stores offer a diverse, interesting and rare range of music \u2013 and that seems to be the key to their continued survival. It\u2019s a real sign that our high street is evolving to changing consumer needs, and that other local independent retailers can take encouragement from this story.\u201d\nwww.icmresearch.com",

Alpe-d'Huez is not likely to be as decisive as it was in 2015 when Froome won overall by one minute 21 seconds.\nFroome (Team Sky) clung on to claim a second Tour victory, after his 2013 triumph and crashing out of the 2014 edition, when struggling with a chest infection on Alpe-d'Huez, where Colombia's Nairo Quintana's (Movistar) attack up the 21-hairpins almost brought him victory.\n\u2b50\ufe0f\u2b50\ufe0f PARCOURS OFFICIEL DU #TDF2018\u2b50\ufe0f\u2b50\ufe0f / \u2b50\ufe0f\u2b50\ufe0f HERE IS THE #TDF2018 OFFICIAL ROUTE \u2b50\ufe0f\u2b50\ufe0f #TDF2018 pic.twitter.com/JxNsEXuWeI\n\u2014 Le Tour de France (@LeTour) October 17, 2017\nThe 105th edition of the Tour will see a reduced peloton, with each team reduced by one rider from nine to eight in Grand Tours in a bid to make the racing less controllable. Some suggested it was specifically targeted at Froome's dominant Team Sky squad.\nFroome has won four of the last five editions of the Tour, while Sir Bradley Wiggins won the yellow jersey in the 99th edition of the race in 2012 to give Team Sky five victories in six years.\nIt was already known the race will begin on Noirmoutier-en-l'Ile and the peloton will cross the Passage du Gois causeway.

He is currently employed as an environmental scientist at the U.S. EPA's Superfund Division. In that division, he is a member of the technical team, FIELDS Group.\nAs a member of the FIELDS Group, he creates sampling designs, collects data and performs GIS and statistical analysis. Sample designs are designed to meet the projects goals (e.g., spatial extent of contamination, determine if an area is above a threshold value). These designs are implemented and the data are collected and analyzed.\nCollected data such as metal levels and radiation levels are spatially and statistically analyzed in order to support site decision-making. The analysis performed includes geostatistics, spatial analysis (e.g., interpolation), regression analysis and various other parametric and non-parametric statistical methods. The results of these analyses include determining the extent of contamination, estimation of volume and mass of contaminated material and creation of remediation (cleanup) scenarios.\nIn order to facilitate these analyses, he has participated in the development of the FIELDS Tools for ArcGIS that allows users to create sample designs, import and query contaminate data, perform interpolations, estimate mass/volume of contaminated material and generate remediation scenarios. These tools are available at:http://www.instepsoftware.com/services_epa.asp. Additionally, he has helped in the creation and testing of a stand-alone GIS software, RAT, that integrates many of the modules in the FIELDS Tools into a software that populates a database with field data (e.g., Radiation meters, XRFs) and GPS data. These two data streams are viewed in real time.

        "title": "International Life Insurance",
        "raw_content": "One single best investment you can give to yourself is personal insurance. May it be health insurance, travel insurance or life insurance, it will still give you enough leverage to confidently do your task everyday anywhere without worrying so much that in any moment, an accident might occur.\nHowever, these types of insurance have limited coverage that is not applicable on a particular situation. The situation I am talking about here is when you decide to live in another country. Sure, you have life insurance or health insurance. But these are only applicable within the boundaries of the United States. So if anything happens to you outside the country, these insurances cannot help you in any way. Same thing goes with travel insurances. Although they can be applicable outside of the country, the claim is only limited up to a certain extent such as medical evacuation, trip cancellation, and trip delays.\nThe bottom line is, when you travel and decided to live outside the United States, these insurance policies you have invested in your life is no longer useful. Thus, you need a particular policy that would be about to give you the coverage you need for this particular situation. You need an international health insurance.\nIn some way, international health insurance is just the same with other insurance policies available for you. But why get international health insurance?\nFor those who have no desire or could not afford to travel internationally, there is no need to purchase international health insurance. But for those who are considering going abroad and staying there, this would come in handy.\nOf course there are prices to pay. While personal health insurance (valid locally) can cost you wealth, international health insurance costs even higher. But, the amount you pay is nothing compared to the benefits it will provide.\nIn most cases, basic international health insurance can give you coverage on things such as hospital accommodation, local ambulances, in-patient or in-hospital care, anesthetists\u2019, physicians\u2019, and surgeons\u2019 charges. Some provide you with radiotherapy, oncology, pathology, and radiology coverage.\nFor wider coverage, a more upgraded international health insurance can answer primary care and primary consultations for outpatient visits. Therapies such as homeopathy, physiotherapy, acupuncture, osteopathy, and primary care and primary consultations including prescribed medicines are covered. For added options, emergency dentistry and at-home nursing care are available at your desire. Of course, the wider the coverage you ask, the more expensive it would be. Usually, the international health insurance with this broad coverage can cost twice as much as the basic.\nThe coverage does not end here.\nYou can get more with higher premiums. If you opt for this, you can add options such as organ transplants, psychiatry, childbirth, rehabilitation, general practitioners consultations, home delivery, and other specializations such as eye, ear, nose, and troth consultations. Other coverage can include visit to specialists such as chiropractors, psychotherapists, dietitians, and osteopaths. Scans, x-rays, lab works, and others can also be included in your coverage along with prescribed medicines.\nThe bottom line for international health insurance is: if you need any medical attention whether here or abroad, you can always tap your insurance policy. After all, accidents strike at any given time, regardless of your location and situation you are into.\nAIG, or the American International Group, Inc. is a world leader in financial services providing, including life insurance. AIG is\u2013or was up until very recently at the time of this writing\u2013the leading international insurance organization, having operations in over 130 nations and jurisdictions. AIG companies provide commercial, institutional, and individual financial services through the most extensive worldwide property-casualty and life insurance networks of any insurance company, although they are being closely competed with by MetLife. What\u2019s more, AIG companies are leading providers of financial services and asset management across the globe. AIG has its common stock listed on the New York, Ireland and Tokyo stock exchanges.\nAIG\u2019s member companies in the life insurance industry include: AIG American General in Houston, Texas; American General Life and Accident Insurance Company in Nashville, Tennessee; and The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York.\nHowever, AIG has recently taken extremely heavy financial harm to itself because part of its financial services included underwriting and buying subprime loans and lending to other financial institutions who did the same. This leaves many people wondering about the financial stability of AIG.\nAIG is in fact planning to sell its three life insurance units in Japan. These sales could total close to $10 billion. AIG now owes $85 billion to the United States government.\nAIG intends to sell shares in American Life Insurance Co (ALICO), AIG Star Life Insurance Co, and AIG Edison Life Insurance Co.\n\u201cIt would be hard for a single domestic insurer to make the acquisition by itself,\u201d a senior official at a major life insurance company was quoted by the Japanese business daily Nikkei as having said.\n\u201cWe know absolutely nothing regarding [who the potential buyers are],\u201d says Tokyo AIG spokesman Fumiyasu Sato.\nAIG has also announced plans at the time of this writing to sell at least most of its life insurance and retirement asset management affiliate companies in the U.S., Europe, and Latin America, and in fact the vast majority of all of its businesses with the notable exception of certain of its core property and casualty insurance businesses in its attempts to pay back the U.S. federal government for preventing it from having to declare bankruptcy. Where not long ago AIG\u2019s stock traded at over $70 a share on the New Yorks Stock Exchange, it now trades for less than $4 a share.\nAIG spokesman Peter Tulupman has said, \u201cLiterally, everything else that doesn\u2019t fit under that definition, we are considering for sale.\u201d\n\u201cWe won\u2019t exactly be the AIG of old, but we\u2019ll have a very secure position. This is going to be a formidable company that emerges from this,\u201d says AIG CEO Edward Liddy.\nHowever, more than one economist is concerned that at least for now AIG is going to have some trouble getting rid of its life insurance and most other businesses. \u201cHe\u2019s trying to refocus AIG to be a true insurance company. The question is, with current market conditions, will there be reasonable bids? If he doesn\u2019t generate enough cash to pay off the loan, then everything comes tumbling down,\u201d says Rob Haines, a debt analyst at CreditSights Inc.\nHowever, AIG is going to do everything it can to retain a majority stake in its American International Assurance Co. life insurance unit. \u201cThe businesses we are retaining could not be re-created today,\u201d says Liddy, who once upon a time was the CEO of Allstate Insurance Co. and was appointed by the US government to take the helm at AIG. He is confident that the sales he is orchestrating will bring in more than enough revenues to repay the feds while also securing the interests of the company\u2019s shareholders.\nBoth Moody\u2019s Investors Service and Standard & Poor\u2019s, two of the most respected independent insurance and financial services rating agencies, have downgraded AIG\u2019s ratings; both raters cited the fact that AIG has borrowed extremely heavily against its credit line and that the amount borrowed exceeds what was anticipated, and Liddy\u2019s sales attempts are fairly risky.\nIt is probably advisable for those who hold AIG life insurance policies or annuities to watch and see who, if anyone, buys AIG\u2019s life insurance businesses, and to see if the company does retain its majority stake in its American International Assurance Co. life insurance unit before choosing whether or not to change life insurers.\nInternational Term Life Insurance for People Who Want Insurance Fast\nIt is hard to know when you might fall sick and need medical attention. Due to the high cost of living, taking care of the medical expenses may be a difficult thing. To surpass this difficulty, you should find a health insurance company that is able to provide you with an international health cover. The advantage that comes with this cover is that you can use it anywhere in the world.\nDifferent people have different needs and the covers are designed to meet them all. This means that you need to find a cover that fits your requirements. This can be accomplished through research. You need to know that some covers cover part of the medical expenses and are cheaper than those that meet the total cost needs.\nYou may not be sure of which cover to go for. In such a situation, the best thing to do is to seek for assistance from an insurance adviser. The adviser will direct you to the most suitable one based on your standards of living and financial situation. This way, it will be easy to know what works best for you. If you need one that does not require any medical checkups, the professional will help you get such.\nUsually, the international health cover companies that do not require you to have any health check-ups prior to getting the policy will always offer you advice on how the cover works. They offer free of charge quotes, which allows you to compare different quotations of the various health covers and settle for the best. This is likely to be one with budget-friendly rates. The agents will guide you in the comparison process and throughout the application process too.\nMost of the covers that do not need medical tests results do not have a lot of paper work or long application processes. You can either apply online or pay a visit to the offices of the insurance company. You must then ensure that you supply all the necessary and accurate information.\nGoing for a term life insurance that does not need a medical checkup helps in saving a lot of time that would have otherwise been spent undergoing medical tests. In order to facilitate a smooth process and ensure that all your needs are met, find an insurance firm that has a reputation for efficient services. By having an international health cover, you are assured of top quality health services regardless of where you are in the world.",

        "raw_content": "Apparently our belief and proclamation of dispensational, pretribulationism has made a great impact upon, not just the religious community, but society in general. There have been a rash of articles and some books that propagate the idea that people who believe in the rapture, a coming tribulation and the modern state of Israel are dangerous people. The alleged danger, according to some, lies in the supposed fact that our simple belief in such views could lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy. How could this be brought about?\nDangerous Dispensationalists?\nThere is a wide-ranging group of people in society who are voicing their opinion that we are a dangerous group of people. Many from liberal leftist to right wing conservatives warn their constituency about the supposed real dangers that our message posses. Frankly, such scare tactics are nothing more than an attempt to demonize those within our camp as a tactic to smear us in the eyes of the public in general. Other than some political power that we are capable of exerting at the polls, dispensationalists in no way pose a threat to anyone.\nThe late Grace Halsell, a secular, non-Christian wrote in 1986 concerning a feared \" Israeli-U. S. fundamentalist alliance,\" and concluded the following:\n. . . it can last long enough to cause a catastrophe of far-reaching consequences. If we do not recognize the danger they pose, the extremists will have time enough in their unsacred alliance to trigger a war that would not end until we have destroyed Planet Earth through self-fulfilling prophecy.[1]\nWe are dangerous because we are said to pursue a self-fulfilling prophecy. That our prophecy views could be the cattalos for nuclear war is such an extreme stretch that even rapture-hater Gary DeMar cannot buy it and says of Halsell: \" This is not an accurate picture of the Armageddon scenario.\" [2] Halsell came out with another book, entitled Forcing God' s Hand: Why Millions Pray for a Quick Rapture----And Destruction of Planet Earth.[3]\nRecently Jane Lampman of the Christian Science Monitor has written an article on the supposed dangers of dispensationalism in an article entitled \" Mixing prophecy and politics.\" [4] She says that some Christians and Jews are speaking out against the prophetic view of dispensationalism, \" which they see as a dangerous mix of religion and politics that is harmful to Israel and endangers prospects for peace with the Palestinians.\" [5] Lampman quotes Timothy Weber saying, \" The danger is that, when people believe they ' know' how things are going to turn out and then act on those convictions, they can make these prophecies self-fulfilling, and bring on some of the things they predict.\" [6] Preterists, especially full-preterists,[7] often teach that dispensationalism is such a dangerous viewpoint that they fear it will lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy of World War III.[8]\nA number of anti-dispensationalists are painting the following scenario concerning the implications of dispensationalism: The United States is the only significant country that regularly supports Israel, thus enabling the Jewish state to be a strong military force in the Middle East. If it were not for American support it is likely that Israel would not be the supposed bully that they are to the poor, oppressed Arabs in Israel. The U. S. is Israel' s enabler. Within the United States it is because of the influence of dispensational, Christian Zionists that are a swing influence politically. If American foreign policy were left to the normal geo-political factors and not the result of religious influence, then we would have a more balance policy toward the Middle East; one that would be more cordial to the Arab world. Since, so many American Evangelicals are pro-Israel, this has provoked the Arab and Muslim world to attack us. If it were not for dispensationalism, they say, we would not have had the first Gulf War, the current war in Iraq or Afghanistan, 911 would have never happened, oil would not be at $45.00 a barrel, and the economy would be much better. It almost sounds as if there would be no real problems in the world if it were not for Israel and their prime enablers, dispensationalists, to hear them talk. Further, those on the program regularly speak of how afraid they are of where dispensationalism is leading this country and they often say that this will lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy[9]\nPro-Palestinian evangelicals like Don Wagner imply the same kind of criticism in Anxious for Armageddon and Dying in the Land of Promise.[10] He says, \" the Christian Right pose[es] a risk for the future of a peace settlement.\" [11] British anti-dispensationalist Stephen Sizer makes the self-fulfilling prophecy claim in a series of video lectures against Christian Zionism.[12] The liberal Presbyterian Church, USA, passed a resolution in the Summer of 2004 in which they \" officially disavow Christian Zionism as a legitimate theological stance.\" [13] Dispensationalism is increasingly being declared a dangerous theology by various voices from all walks of society. These people are out to demonize us through distorting our views and declaring us to be more extreme than we really are. This is an unethical approach.\nA Public Impact?\nGary North and many of the Christian Reconstructionist, anti-dispensationalists of the 1980s and 90s were critical of the supposed lack of social and political impact that dispensationalists were said to not have.[14] He has complained that dispensationalists have not been engaged socially and politically because of their pessimistic view of Bible prophecy. We were said to be so heavenly minded that we were of no earthly good. Now many of the same critics are complaining about \" the political support by fundamentalists.\" [15] Which is it? Are dispensationalists not involved politically, or are they too involved?\nTimothy Weber says that dispensationalists have been for the most part observers of history and not social or political activists. \" Most dispensationalists were satisfied to be mere observers of the Zionist movement,\" notes Weber. \" They watched and analyzed it.\" Weber points out that American William Blackstone \" was one exception to the general pattern.\" [16] Even though Weber appears to believe that dispensationalists will create a self-fulfilling prophecy throughout his book, he does come to a final conclusion that is exactly the opposite. Note Weber' s final conclusion at the end of his book as follows:\nSince the end of the Six-Day War, then, dispensationalists have increasingly moved from observers to participant-observers. They have acted consistently with their convictions about the coming last days in ways that make their prophecies appear to be self-fulfilling. It would be too easy- and completely unwarranted- to conclude that American prophecy believers are responsible for the mess the world is in, that their beliefs have produced the current quagmire in the Middle East. Given the history of the region, the long-standing ethnic and religious hatreds there, and the attempt of many nations, both Western and Arab, to carry out their own purposes in the Holy Land, it is easy to imagine the current impasse even if John Nelson Darby and his views had never existed.[17]\nHey, . . . I think the Arab Muslims of the Middle East deserve a little credit for some of the international conflict we are now experiencing. I don' t believe that a few thousand dispensational Christians should take all the credit for the collapse of Western civilization. I think that unbelievers should get some credit for such an accomplishment.\nWhen one thinks through the idea, in terms of what dispensationalists actually believe and teach, that we are so dangerous that we could provoke a self-fulfilling prophecy, it is absolutely ridiculous. How could we provoke a self-fulfillment of the rapture? Perhaps someone could identify all born-again Christians and send a global e-mail suggesting that on a given day we all go hide. How do you fake the rapture? How does one set off a chain of natural events that culminates in the rapture? Perhaps some New Ager could suggest a scenario. Let' s face it, those of us who believe in the Left Behind theology genuinely believe that the rapture will be a supernatural event and such an event cannot be staged or provoked by human action in any way. If God does not do it, then it will not happen. If God does it, then there is nothing that anyone will be able to about it any way. So where is a genuine basis for concern over such an event as the rapture?\nSome say that dispensationalists are dangerous because we believe that the Temple must be rebuilt during the tribulation. Liberal Jewish commentator Gershom Gorenberg says, \" Millennial movements have resorted to terror ever since the Jewish Zealots who rebelled against Rome nearly two thousand years ago.\" Gorenberg concludes that, \" believers must expect that redemption is very near, and that it depends on human action.\" [18] The problem with Gorenberg' s analysis is that the dispensational prophetic viewpoint sees these events as things that will be brought about after the rapture by the Jewish people or genuinely supernatural, something only God can bring to pass. Thus, there is no compulsion within our mindset that \" depends on human action.\" The only human action that some dispensationalists might see impacting prophetic fulfillment would be our responsibility to live a holy life unto the Lord and engage in tireless evangelism. These are things that are said to be valued by all evangelicals and not thought to be dangerous activities, except by the world.\nFor the last twenty years or so I have attempted to keep up on news about relating to prophecy beliefs. There have been a number of events by religiously motivated groups or individuals that have caught the public' s attention. Events that have caught the public' s eye in the last few years have included some of the following: Jim Jones and his leadership of the mass suicides in South America were certainly not dispensationalists in any way shape or form, instead they were left-wing socialists. David Koresh and the Branch Dividians were a splinter group within the Seventh Day Adventist church who believed that the second coming would occur in 1995. Yet, even though they were premillennial, they were clearly not dispensational. Following the Adventist tradition, they were not even futurists, as are dispensationalists, but historicists. Historicists have a long tradition of taking matters in their own hands and acting. Dispensationalism has almost nothing in common with such prophetic views.\n\" In October 1994, fifty-three members of the Solar Temple, a small French-speaking sect, were found dead at two spots in Switerzerland and another in Quebec.\" [19] This cult was not even Christian and was certainly not dispensational. Instead, they were some kind of an environmental, ecological cult. There were the thirty-nine members of the quasi-Christian cult, Heaven' s Gate, who committed suicide in Rancho Santa Fe, California in 1997. They believed that they would be transported to a flying saucer in outer space in order \" to take them to ' the level above human.' \" [20] This hardly has anything to do with dispensationalism. In Japan, sect leader Asahara Shokou predicted that Armageddon would occur in 1999 and perpetrated a sarin nerve gas attack on the Tokyo subway in 1995. The cult \" mixed Buddhist and Hindu ideas with predictions from the Book of Revelation and a dose of anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.\" [21] Such views are far removed from any kind of dispensationalism. Even the more recent events involving Monte Kim Miller and his group of Concerned Christians whom some thought would attempt to carry out some supposed prophetic events in Jerusalem were not dispensational in their thinking.[22]\nFor most critics of dispensationalism who believe that we are dangerous and on the verge of creating a self-fulfilling prophecy, the Temple Mount is said to be the most dangerous spot on planet earth. One such critics said, \" The most explosive possibility relates to the prophecy that the Jewish temple will be rebuilt on the Temple Mount, where Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque now sit.\" [23] Over the last few decades there have been a few attempts by a couple of individuals to blow up the Dome of the Rock in order to make way for the next Jewish Temple. Yet, once again, none of these attempts were performed by anyone from a dispensational viewpoint.[24]\nIn the past many have noted that dispensationalists tend not to be politically active. There are many great exceptions to this, even if it has been generally true. Tim and Beverly LaHaye would certainly be an exception. Many unbelievers, as well as left-leaning Christians have complained about their social and political efforts. Nevertheless, regardless of the actual degree of social and political activity, dispensationalists believe that God is going to supernaturally fulfill prophecy. This is likely the reason that I have never heard of one who is a dispensationalist that has tried to take matters into their own hands and resorted to some kind of human action like trying to remove the Dome of the Rock from the Temple Mount. It could be possible that someone who is a dispensationalist might do something, but it would definitely be out of character with a belief system that leads one to believe that if God doesn' t do these things then they won' t get done.\nEven though there are currently millions of Christians around the world who hold to a dispensational view of the prophetic future, I do not think that they will become frustrated at some point in the future and take matters into their own hands. I think this is the case, because we also believe that we do not know when these events will take place. Although many of us do believe that we are likely near the time of the rapture and subsequent tribulation period, we never know when they will actually occur before the rapture does occur. Thus, there is not the pressure to act, as critics often contend. Instead, we believe that we should be busy about the Lord' s business, while waiting eagerly for His any-moment return to rapture His church into the clouds.

It is called Lousy Lane. Lousy Lane runs through fields that are a sickly gray color, in which a handful of scraggly trees produce apples so sour that one only has to look at them to feel ill. Lousy Lane traverses the Grim River, a body of water that is nine-tenths mud and that contains extremely unnerving fish, and it encircles a horseradish factory, so the entire area smells bitter and strong.\nI am sorry to tell you that this story begins with the Baudelaire orphans traveling along this most displeasing road, and that from this moment on, the story only gets worse. Of all the people in the world who have miserable lives - and, as I'm sure you know, there are quite a few - the Baudelaire youngsters take the cake, a phrase which here means that more horrible things have happened to them than just about anybody. Their misfortune began with an enormous fire that destroyed their home and killed both their loving parents, which is enough sadness to last anyone a lifetime, but in the case of these three children it was only the bad beginning. After the fire, the siblings were sent to live with a distant relative named Count Olaf, a terrible and greedy man. The Baudelaire parents had left behind an enormous fortune, which would go to the children when Violet came of age, and Count Olaf was so obsessed with getting his filthy hands on the money that he hatched a devious plan that gives me nightmares to this day. He was caught just in time, but he escaped and vowed to get ahold of the Baudelaire fortune sometime in the future. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny still had nightmares about Count Olaf's shiny, shiny eyes, and about his one scraggly eyebrow, and most of all about the tattoo of an eye he had on his ankle. It seemed like that eye was watching the Baudelaire orphans wherever they went.\nSo I must tell you that if you have opened this book in the hope of finding out that the children lived happily ever after, you might as well shut it and read something else. Because Violet, Klaus, and Sunny, sitting in a small, cramped car and staring out the windows at Lousy Lane, were heading toward even more misery and woe. The Grim River and the horseradish factory were only the first of a sequence of tragic and unpleasant episodes that bring a frown to my face and a tear to my eye whenever I think about them.\nThe driver of the car was Mr. Poe, a family friend who worked at a bank and always had a cough. He was in charge of overseeing the orphans' affairs, so it was he who decided that the children would be placed in the care of a distant relative in the country after all the unpleasantness with Count Olaf.\n\"I'm sorry if you're uncomfortable,\" Mr. Poe said, coughing into a white handkerchief, \"but this new car of mine doesn't fit too many people. We couldn't even fit any of your suitcases. In a week or so I'll drive back here and bring them to you.\"\n\"Thank you,\" said Violet, who at fourteen was the oldest of the Baudelaire children. Anyone who knew Violet well could see that her mind was not really on what Mr. Poe was saying, because her long hair was tied up in a ribbon to keep it out of her eyes. Violet was an inventor, and when she was thinking up inventions she liked to tie her hair up this way. It helped her think clearly about the various gears, wires, and ropes involved in most of her creations.\n\"After living so long in the city,\" Mr. Poe continued, \"I think you will find the countryside to be a pleasant change. Oh, here is the turn. We're almost there.\"\n\"Good,\" Klaus said quietly. Klaus, like many people on car rides, was very bored, and he was sad not to have a book with him. Klaus loved to read, and at approximately twelve years of age had read more books than many people read in their whole lives. Sometimes he read well into the night, and in the morning could be found fast asleep, with a book in his hand and his glasses still on.\n\"I think you'll like Dr. Montgomery, too,\" Mr. Poe said. \"He has traveled a great deal, so he has plenty of stories to tell. I've heard his house is filled with things he's brought from all the places he's been.\"\n\"Bax!\" Sunny shrieked. Sunny, the youngest of the Baudelaire orphans, often talked like this, as infants tend to do. In fact, besides biting things with her four very sharp teeth, speaking in fragments was how Sunny spent most of her time. It was often difficult to tell what she meant to say. At this moment she probably meant something along the lines of \"I'm nervous about meeting a new relative.\" All three children were.\n\"How exactly is Dr. Montgomery related to us?\" Klaus asked.\n\"Dr. Montgomery is-let me see-your late father's cousin's wife's brother. I think that's right. He's a scientist of some sort, and receives a great deal of money from the government.\" As a banker, Mr. Poe was always interested in money.\n\"What should we call him?\" Klaus asked.\n\"You should call him Dr. Montgomery,\" Mr. Poe replied, \"unless he tells you to call him Montgomery. Both his first and last names are Montgomery, so it doesn't really make much difference.\"\n\"His name is Montgomery Montgomery?\" Klaus said, smiling.\n\"Yes, and I'm sure he's very sensitive about that, so don't ridicule him,\" Mr. Poe said, coughing again into his handkerchief. \"'Ridicule' means 'tease.'\"\nKlaus sighed. \"I know what 'ridicule' means,\" he said. He did not add that of course he also knew not to make fun of someone's name. Occasionally, people thought that because the orphans were unforunate, they were also dim-witted.\ntitle: \u0412\u044b \u043c\u043e\u0436\u0435\u0442\u0435 \u043a\u0443\u043f\u0438\u0442\u044c \u044d\u0442\u0443 \u043a\u043d\u0438\u0433\u0443 \u0432 \u043c\u0430\u0433\u0430\u0437\u0438\u043d\u0430\u0445: feed_id: 3204 pattern_id: 531 limit: format: 2 book_author: Lemony Snicket book_name: The Reptile Room\n\u041f\u0440\u043e\u043c\u0430\u0445 \u0433\u0440\u0430\u0436\u0434\u0430\u043d\u0438\u043d\u0430 \u041b\u043e\u0448\u0430\u043a\u043e\u0432\u0430, \u042e\u0440\u0438\u0439 \u041a\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043b\u044c \u0427\u0438\u0442\u0430\u0442\u044c \u2192\n\u041f\u044f\u0442\u044c \u043f\u043e\u0445\u0438\u0449\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044b\u0445 \u043c\u043e\u043d\u0430\u0445\u043e\u0432, \u042e\u0440\u0438\u0439 \u041a\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043b\u044c \u0427\u0438\u0442\u0430\u0442\u044c \u2192\n\u0420\u0430\u0441\u043c\u0443\u0441, \u041f\u043e\u043d\u0442\u0443\u0441 \u0438 \u0413\u043b\u0443\u043f\u044b\u0448, \u0410\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0438\u0434 \u041b\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0433\u0440\u0435\u043d \u0427\u0438\u0442\u0430\u0442\u044c \u2192",

        "raw_content": "\u201cThe question isn\u2019t at what age I want to retire, it\u2019s at what income.\u201d \u2013 George Foreman\nBefore I get into the topic I really want to discuss, I would like to provide all of you who are financially, socially and psychologically ready to retire a pdf document from Vanguard that discusses how to turn retirement savings into retirement income. It provides a very simple overview of the process and of course advertises some of the services Vanguard offers.\nOne of the more challenging aspects of retiring is adjusting our attitudes about money, where it comes from, and how we manage it.\nI have a friend who has worked hard, saved for retirement but is currently in ill health and hates her job. Financially, she is in a position to retire, easily I might add. However, mentally, her mindset about money is abysmal. Although she has a chunk hidden away in her 401K, she learned early on never to touch it, so it is truly hidden. She is also very good about living within her means when it comes to a paycheck but has no understanding of what her means would be without one?\nFacing our attitudes, fears, desires, distaste, emotions, insecurities and whatever else the thought of money brings us is one of the hardest things for us to do. As baby boomers, we were raised in a culture where it was impolite to discuss money. Most of us were never taught how to address any of our feelings about money, much less the actual methodology of managing money.\nI would like to introduce to one of the greatest success coaches I have ever run across \u2013 John Assaraf.\nThe video above is an older video (2013) that was put on YouTube to promote a three day live webcast. The reason it is on YouTube is not nearly as important as knowing that John offers you a way to improve your relationship with money.\nI first met John in 2008 when I attended a three day seminar in San Diego on expanding your business. I attended with the CEO of the company I work for and was incredibly impressed. His teaching style made it so easy to learn and incorporate new ideas. Our company has increased its value 10 fold since that time. I am not saying that it is a direct result of working with John. What I am saying is that working with John changes your mindset. It allows you to address all challenges creatively and with joy instead of fear.\nI am now taking a course with him that allows me change my mindset about money. It is called Winning the Game of Money and I plan to write a review for the program in a few days.\nHowever, I digress. The point I wanted to make with the story about my friend and with the video is that without the appropriate mindset you cannot get to where you want to be.\nHow do you get the right mindset? First and foremost, you find people who can help you get to where you want to be. My friend has a financial adviser \u2013 good! She does not want to go see him until she has figured out everything she needs to know \u2013 ugh! There is no need to surround yourself with experts unless you are willing to use their expertise.\nSo, what does she need to change before she can use the expertise she has hired? What does it mean when we cannot accept help \u2013 especially when we need it? Is it a sign of weakness to need help? Does it undermine our independence and our ability to cope? Does asking for help mean that we are not accepting responsibility for ourselves and are therefore somehow a burden? Does it require that we admit to shortcomings? Does it make us vulnerable? Are we now somehow beholden to the person who helps us?\nMaybe it is one or even all of those reasons that keep us from developing a community of people who can help us to live our life to the fullest. I am here to tell you to get over it \u2013 only don\u2019t try to get over it alone.\nMy husband and I are several years away from our retirement date; however, our financial planner is already working with us on scenarios to make sure that we can live the way we want to live. Both my husband and I are excellent at our occupations. It has taken us many hours of study and hard work to be able to claim excellence. We selected a financial planner for the same reason. He has become excellent at what he does using the same two actions. We did not have time to do what we did and do what he did. We are very grateful he is part of our team and can help us be all that we want to be. We are never afraid to ask for his help. The same is true for other experts we have surrounded ourselves with \u2013 our accountant, our attorney, and on and on. I could no more do what our general contractor does when building our new stairwell than I could build a rocket, nor do not want to. Not because it might not be fun but if I tried to be as expert as our contractor, my stairs would not be built for years and I need them now.\nFor those of you who do not have a financial adviser and think you might need one I offer the following article from Kiplinger magazine \u2013 6 Steps to finding a Great Financial Adviser. While it is an older article, the advice is still excellent.\nIf you are not ready to accept help from experts then I recommend reading my review of John Assaraf and his neurogym program on Winning the Game of Money. Overcoming blocks that interfere with your living your best life possible is what he does best.\nThanks for taking the time to be here. Please leave comments or stories that might help others to face the changes we will all need to face as we go through life\u2019s transitions.\nI became familiar with John assaraf through the secret by Rhonda Byrne. His story was very impressive with his vision board. I especially liked the one about how he didn\u2019t even realize that the house that he was living in was exactly the same house that was on his vision board. I myself is a big fan of law of attraction and a practioner. It\u2019s awesome that he has changed your life for the better\nThank you Joon, I am glad you are familiar with John Assaraf. One of his sayings is that he believes in the law of GOYA. Not everyone knows that law but it is a companion to the law of attraction and it means \u201cGet Off Your A__\u201d. Most of his courses focus on performing the right actions in the right order. I believe that one of the things that hold many of us back is insecurity of knowing what to do next. John has helped many people learn to do just that. May every action you take change your life for the better.\nThis is a wonderful post and I know it will help so many people! I am at the stage in my life where I\u2019m trying to make changes that I\u2019ve needed to make for many years but never had the courage or the confidence to do so. I love John\u2019s video because the fears he talks about are exactly what held me back! LOVE IT \u2013 thank you! I\u2019m very interested in hearing more about \u2018Winning the Game of Money\u2019.\nThank you Ana, I will be writing my review of John\u2019s neurogym this weekend. I do know that he has helped many people develop the courage and confidence to move forward with their lives, and he does so in a very positive manner. If you Google his name, you won\u2019t even have to wait for my review. Good luck in moving forward.",

        "title": "Cross-Dressing",
        "raw_content": "At eighteenth-century masquerades, women and men often disguised themselves as the opposite sex. In that period, was it easier for a woman to be mistaken as a man; did people perceive the sexes differently than we do today. I doubt that there is anywhere near enough evidence to suggest that today we \"see\" sex and gender differently than people did in the past. When unisex clothing was popular in the 1960s, plenty of people claimed that males and females were too easily mistaken for one another. And professional drag performers, female as well as male, in modern times have been able to \"fool\" people, especially in situations where one is not expecting to see someone in drag. The \"mistakes\" will be made most consistently when the male already has feminine features or the female already has boyish or masculine features, and this I think was true in the eighteenth century also. Horace Walpole, as is well known, passed for an old woman at a masquerade; but it seems to me that Walpole could easily be mistaken for an old woman even if he were not at a masquerade!\nStories about women who pretended to be men and joined the army or navy often have a little anecdote about how they were perceived to be rather effeminate young boys. Such biographies also occasionally suggest that the women in question were tomboys when they were young, i.e. in some ways they were mistaken for boys even before they took on the role and clothes of males. There are also instances when some women took very great care to appear to be men in all things, for example some of them used a leather-encased funnel device that allowed them to pee against a wall while standing up. If out of the corner of your eye you see your mate apparently peeing against the wall, you aren't likely to question his sex.\nMale cross-dressing seems to have occurred mostly in connection with sexual solicitation and prostitution, which of course happened also at masquerades. Such men at a masquerade would not just be dressing up \"as a woman\", but almost like a whore/courtesan, which is really something rather different than a woman. For example, they would be very highly painted and extravagantly coiffeured, and therefore mask-like even before donning a mask, or perhaps dressed in a callimanco gown and mob cap that hid more than they revealed. Also, of course, the dark avenues of the pleasure gardens would not have made close inspection possible.\nJohn Cooper, who regularly crossed-dressed during the late 1720s/early 1730s and who was known to all his acquaintance as Princess Seraphina, was usually successful in picking up men at Vauxhall while dressed as a woman. Mary Poplet, who kept the Two Sugar Loaves public house in Drury Lane and was a friend of Princess Seraphina, said \"I have seen her several times in Women's Cloaths, she commonly us'd to wear a white Gown, and a scarlet Cloak, with her Hair frizzled and curl'd all round her Forehead; and then she would so flutter her Fan, and make such fine Curt'sies, that you would not have known her from a Woman.\" I don't think there's any indication here that Mary Poplet \"saw\" sex/gender much differently than we do today, or was more easily fooled than we would be today. It's just that the skills of cross-dressers were often well practiced, and sometimes, perhaps, even \"innate\" rather than socially constructed.\nWilliam Beckford kept a scrapbook of cuttings about cross-dressers that he cut from newspapers during 1790\u00961840, mainly the Morning Chronicle. It's surprising how often such phenomena are reported in the newspapers \u0096 even much earlier, from the 1690s.\nToday when we hear the term \"transvestite\", we will probably think of a man in drag. But it's interesting that during the 18th and 19th centuries, persons who passed as members of the opposite sex over long periods of time were mostly women. Princess Seraphina is about the only long-term male cross-dresser I know of before about the 1780s. All the other reports about men in drag indicate that it was done for temporary pleasure, e.g. at small private masquerade parties, or for prostitution. Or for expediency, such as escaping from prison or from the country. (Incidentally, I believe Prince Charles Edward Stuart was good looking enough to successfully pull off a disguise of this sort.)\nIn contrast, there are many, many accounts of female long-term cross-dressers during this period: not only women soldiers, but also women pickpockets who dress as boys or sailors, women who dress as boys and serve at public houses, even women who keep public houses as men. There may have been many female cross-dressers in the itinerant or street culture. Mary Chapman the street ballad singer lived as a man for at least ten years during the 1820s/30s, and lived with another woman as man and wife during this period. The German cross-dresser (and lesbian) Catharina Margaretha Linck was part of an vagabond religious culture in 1710\u009620.\nEmma Donoghue covers the subject of female cross-dressing very thoroughly in her book Passions Between Women: British lesbian culture 1668\u00961801 (London: Scarlet Press, 1993). Donoghue gives a good typology of motivations. Her view is that a substantial number of female cross dressers donned men's clothes in order to escape undetected in a lesbian marriage, even to the extent that the one who donned the male clothes could be chosen by the flip of a coin. But I think it is rather hard to prove that this was ever true extensively, and is countered by the many documented cross- dressing women who went from one lesbian marriage to another, i.e. they were always the \"husband\" and their successive partners were always the \"wives\". I don't think that a reversal of role in subsequent relationships is widely documented. Tomboys are usually noticeable from very early ages (as are pansies who dress like Salome at age five), and they often preserve that status throughout life. In other words, I favour the essentialist common-sense view that most cross dressers don the clothes of the \"other\" sex in order to match an inner desire rather than a social expectation.\nAn interesting difference between men and women is that, as far as we can judge from available documents, male cross-dressers fraternized with one another and formed a community, whereas female cross-dressers remained private individuals and did not network amongst themselves. The discovery of female cross-dressers was regularly reported in newspapers up through the 1930s/1940s. I would be tempted to say that there are fewer and fewer women who lead this secret existence, but who knows? Billy Tipton, the Big Band musician who married and adopted sons, was not discovered to be a woman until her death in 1989.\nOn the subject of masquerades and similar occasions, there are accepted conventions about not being able to recognize people, but I don't think these have changed a great deal over the past few centuries or that \"we can see things more clearly now\" than our forbears! Part of the social utility of a public masquerade was that you could speak to someone without being \"introduced\" to them and without having to subsequently exchange calling cards etc., which would have entailed awkward or impossible consequences if the persons were of different classes. The \"disguise\" was serious enough, but not literal. When I see references to people travelling incognito, I think in many cases this just means that the traveller and those who meet him or her have quietly agreed that they won't have to go through the social conventions arising from an acknowledgement of who they really are. When Queen Victoria went on holiday to France she travelled as the Countess of Windsor: everyone knew perfectly well she was the Queen, but by not acknowledging it, she was allowed to enjoy a normal holiday without having to attend State receptions etc. This accepted failure of perception forms one of my rules for living, though unfortunately I have forgotten my source: \"A Lady never hears that which she ought not to hear. Having unmistakeably heard, she fails to understand.\"\nCopyright \u00a9 2002, 2014 Rictor Norton. All rights reserved. Reproduction for sale or profit prohibited.

        "raw_content": "by Adam Bishopon February 27, 2017\nWe\u2019ve said it before, and we\u2019ll say it again: online security is a big deal.\nIn this digital world, our IT systems and networks are the integral engine room of our businesses. The platform from which we communicate, transact, and carry out our daily operations.\nAnd, most importantly of all, it is where we collect, store, and use the data that drives us.\nThink about what\u2019s on your systems; contained within those hundreds, thousands, possibly millions of files, documents, emails, folders, and databases. Personal information, intellectual property, sensitive or confidential material. Data entrusted to you from clients or data that could harm you, should it fall into the wrong hands, get lost, destroyed, or compromised.\nThis is the data contained online, and within a company\u2019s system. And it needs to be protected. Protected against very real, potentially catastrophic threats. Threats from which no-one is immune, and liable to hit at any time.\nCyber-attacks are rarely out of the news, of course. From a headline grabbing point of view, there\u2019s something kind of sexy about a major corporation being struck by a cyber-criminal. It still all sounds a bit futuristic. And when you start to look at the damage \u2013 the compromised data of millions of Yahoo users, or the financial impact on Tesco Bank, for instance \u2013 then it makes for a major scandal-loving news story.\nBut, to an extent, this paints a distorted picture of the kind of threats to data that we all face on a daily basis. These are stories that place the focus on external factors, undoubtedly a major threat, without taking into account other threats that exist. Threats that may exist from within your system, for example, which can be equally as damaging. But, as they are less reported, are they being as carefully guarded against?\nBack in mid-February, an engineer from Google discovered a bug within the code of content distributor, Cloudflare. The bug had the potential to cause data to leak from thousands of websites that use their backend service. Fortunately, the issue was quickly resolved with little damage occurring. But given that Cloudflare is used by all manner of data sensitive organisations from banks and retailers, to insurance companies and dating sites, the harm could have been enormous.\nAnd offers a timely reminder about the \u2018other\u2019 ways in which online security can be breached, beyond the headline grabbing hacker threats.\nKeeping your security robust to all threats\nThere\u2019s no one catch-all solution to online security; and as the Cloudflare example highlights, focusing attention against threats from only one channel can leave you vulnerable to others. Furthermore, cyber-risks are ever-changing beasts, meaning that your security measures need to be adaptable and evolving to meet new challenges.\nWhen you consider the costs attached to a breach in your system, both financially and to the reputation of your brand, then employing robust measures to protect yourself should be a business-critical decision.\nAnd, as is always the case when protecting the integrity, finances, and well-being of your company, the approach should be multi-faceted; taking preventative measures, with regular scrutiny, while covering yourself against the worst-case scenarios.\nHigh-level Security Protocols\nWe would like to think that it goes without saying that most businesses have the wherewithal to implement security software of one kind or other into their system. Generally adopting anti-malware software, robust firewalls, and spam / anti-phishing filters for your email systems. It\u2019s likely that you\u2019ve also incorporated a multi-step access system (password + security question, for example), to offer greater protection against hacking threats.\nTaking the next step, adopting powerful network security protocols to your system delivers additional \u2013 and very effective \u2013 measures against unauthorised access to the data that you wish to protect.\nTypically this might take the form of encryption, whereby data is scrambled and unreadable until decrypted by special algorithm. Internet Messaging apps, such as WhatsApp, will use a form of network security protocol \u2013 such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), as they provide a means by which one can communicate and share information in a secure online environment.\nRegular Penetration Tests\nPenetration testing is essentially a check on the security level of your network. A test which probes your system, seeking out weak spots and areas of vulnerability. If you\u2019re serious about protecting your system against hackers, malware, or any other threat that may exist, then you really need to ensure that your system\u2019s security is up to the task.\nThreats change, and new vulnerabilities will always emerge \u2013 maybe a piece of code or software that\u2019s not been updated, or simply a new bug yet to be detected. Meaning that checks and maintenance of your security should be an ongoing thing. Incorporating regular penetration tests is another step towards keeping pace with a volatile, and hostile digital landscape.\nThe reality is that nothing can truly offer 100% protection against a breach. There always exists the possibility that you will be hit and effected. So why wouldn\u2019t you protect yourself with suitable cover, should the worst occur?\nYou\u2019d cover your property against fire, theft, or storm damage. When data loss or breach can be so costly \u2013 to the point that businesses can and do go under \u2013 investing in cover against cyber-attack, either through adding to an existing policy, or via a new scheme, might be the most important cover you ever take out. Saving you extraordinarily high costs to your bank account, and demonstrating a diligence that can lessen the impact on your brand, in the eyes of your clients and the market.\nAdam Bishop/ February 12, 2017\nInsurers and insurance brokers in the UK are missing out on a range of opportunities to stream line their business models and develop better data...",

        "title": "RMCQ - History of the Club - Railway Modellers' Club of Queensland",
        "raw_content": "History of the RMCQ\nThe Australian Model Railway Magazine Issue No. 65, which is the March/April 1974 issue Vol 6 No. 6 states on page 26 that :-\n'...Half way through 1973, after lengthy negotiations with the Executive Council, we formed the Railway Modellers' Club of Queensland (RMCQ). It is a 100% club, that is, every member must be a member of S.C.M.R.A. which in turn automatically entitles him to attend the club as a member. The only difference this makes to our operations is that all monies handled by us are in the Club's name, and not in Sunshine Division's, as previously was the case.'\nThe RMCQ had its foundation over 40 years ago. Since that time our Club members have built and displayed layouts at most model railway Exhibitions around South East Queensland and Northern New South Wales. The major problem encountered was that the various pieces of the layout were stored at different Members' homes and that the logistics of transporting and assembling the Layout was most difficult at times. The need to store all sections of our Layout in one central location became very apparent.\nAt an unknown time since 1974, most probably in the late 1980's, the RMCQ ceased to be a 100% club, and members did not have to be members of S.C.M.R.A. to join us, although quite a few members still remain members of S.C.M.R.A.\nIn the early days Members would meet each month at individual Members' homes and whilst this played part in building strong friendships between Members, it did not allow the effective construction, display or running of the Club's Layout.\nR.M.C.Q. became incorporated on the 11th November, 1991.\nThe November 1994, Vol 3 No. 11 'The Semaphore' states that '... the clubrooms become vacant in late October. We have taken possession. The Club layout has been set up. Tours of the clubrooms will occur on 12 November at 1:00pm before adjourning to Ross Goldspink's place to conduct a meeting...' This of course referred to the old Bald Hills Post Office, on the corner of Ana Street and Bald Hills Road. This was the RMCQ's first semi-permanent home.\nBack in 1994 and 1995, we were under the impression that the clubrooms may be a temporary enhancement, due to the then owner being of a well matured age, and RMCQ not knowing if we could afford to continue paying rent for them. At various times since 1994, members have been on the lookout for alternate and possible more permanent clubrooms. Well I guess our initial fears were unfounded.\nHowever after the old Bald Hills Post Office changed hands for the second time in about 12 months, we were being evicted from our former clubrooms on the 6th June 2002, due to these being sold as a vacant possession. To put everyone in the picture, we had a tenancy of these premises for over seven and half years. So we had quite a run. In that time we had only one rent rise. The RMCQ was able to meet all its financial obligations under the stewardship of a number of very competent Executives and the Club continued to grow and develop.\nJust before the above events unfolded, The RMCQ Executive were in negotiations with the Pine Rivers Shire Council for a lease on a parcel of land large enough to go one step further and larger, and construct a permanent base for our activities. This land turned out to be Buckley Park for which our Members will be forever grateful. The eviction from the old Clubrooms occurred just a tad too early, as we did not have a home to house our then assets. As a consequence, these were spread far and wide for a short period.\nBy July 2002, our Club's energies were concentrated on developing these Clubrooms to achieve compliance with our Building Permit. This was undertaken to the detriment of some of our modelling activities. After signoff, our energies could then be refocused on building new and improved HO and N scale Clubroom Layouts and new HO and N scale Exhibition Layouts, as well as increasing the skills of our members in areas foreign to them but within their reach.\nTo summarise the Club's achievements since July 2002 and March 2004, our negotiations with Council were finalised, we re-zoned the Park for a purpose compliant with our activities, and we erected our Shed. The sewerage and water were connected. Electricity has been connected - a much needed commodity in the Model Railway realm. We have also fenced and landscaped our parcel of land. We have also with the assistance of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund, provided the all weather driveway and the completed the landscaping projects.\nOver the last few years the RMCQ has had a number of achievements that it can be justifiably proud of. These include:-\nAlmost 16 years of publishing our monthly magazine - The Semaphore,\nSince June 1996, the RMCQ has managed to have at least one monthly workshop or clinic on our meeting day, with sometimes up to 3, resources permitting,\nProduced a 300+ page Workshop Manual for our members to refer to, to assist them with different facets of this great hobby,\nKeeping up a presence on the Exhibition Scene for over 30 years around Northern NSW and South East Queensland through a number of Exhibition Layouts constructed by members,\nOrganised 2 Buy and Sell events each year for about the last 9 or 10 years with the co-operation of the Bald Hills Uniting Church Community,\nUndertaken 7 very successful Model Railway Exhibitions ourselves for the enjoyment of the local community and model railway enthusiasts alike.\nWe are always on the move and regularly exhibit our layouts at the AMRA Show at the RNA showgrounds, as well as supporting other clubs at their exhibitions, of recent times; we have been to Toowoomba, Sandgate PCYC, Pine Rivers Seniors Expo and Ipswich Railway workshops to name just a few.\nIn 2007 the club received a grant from the Gaming Fund and used this to extend the existing facilities to provide additional workshop facilities, and parking for the trailers we use to transport our club display layouts to other club's shows and expos throughout the South East Corner. We also put in a 3m awning at the front of the shed.\n2007 saw the first Pine Rivers Model Train and Hobby Expo which the club has instigated to showcase the hobby community in the Pine Rivers Shire. This replaces our previous Model Railway Exhibition in a larger and hopefully more diverse manner.\nOur plans for 2008 included the wish of the completion of our shed to permit the construction of a new HO layout replacing our 20 year old faithful layout. The new layout will incorporate the latest technology to ensure that we have a system which is as future proof as we can make it.\nIn February of 2008 we saw the club start work on extending the front of the clubrooms by another 3 metres of enclosed space and another 3 metres of awning, all at the front of the shed. This allowed us a larger meeting area for members. We also put a large concrete slab in front of where the trailers come and go into the shed down the side.\nThe end of 2009 and beginning of 2010 saw the HO fellows build a brand new exhibition layout which was shown for the first time at the AMRA Show of 2010. The N scale fellas were also busy with a big revamp of the N scale exhibition layout.\nIn 2010, the club's wish of extending the clubrooms to allow for a new HO layout to be built were granted. The club received a grant from the Gambling Community Benefit Fund that allowed us to put up a new 12m x 12m extension to our shed. This extension was started in July and completed in time for Christmas of 2010. In January of 2011 we were able to move our old faithful HO layout into the new extension and start planning on the new layout as well.\nThe beginning of 2012 saw the beginning of building of our new HO layout in new extension as well as the building of six new modules for the N scale exhibition layout.\nSince the club established its clubrooms at Brendale membership has grown by 30% with over seventy people now involved in various levels of membership.\nOn the 8th of June 2013 we celebrated the club's 40th anniversary.",

        "raw_content": "My partner and I were really enjoying Glee until one of us, I don\u2019t remember who, pointed out that it seemed to be a bit misogynist. Now that\u2019s practically all we can see.\nWe were slow on the uptake because the show seems upbeat. It\u2019s like Star Trek in that major issues are often resolved in the last few minutes of every episode, except that the solution is always, \u201cHey kids, let\u2019s put on a show!\u201d It\u2019s an MGM musical for our times, where every character becomes the best version of him or herself the moment the music begins to play. It might be even more uplifting, because between songs these are not Fred Astaires or Judy Garlands. The teachers and students of Glee are the sad lost souls of the Heartland living out Springsteen lyrics while dancing to Broadway melodies.\nI love this premise, but Glee\u2019s handling of sexuality and gender leaves a bitter aftertaste. Underneath the charm lurk a bunch of nasty archetypes I hoped TV had outgrown.\nLet\u2019s start with Kurt, the gay high school student, because he is the canary in Glee\u2019s coal mine. In the episode where he comes out to his father, we find him re-enacting the \u201cSingle Ladies\u201d music video with two girlfriends in his basement. While I get that the show is always eager to find excuses for its characters to bust a move, must the only openly gay boy in the show spend his leisure hours working on choreography?\nAt the end of the episode, he comes out to his father, who is totally unfazed. He has always known his son is gay, he explains, because when Kurt was three, the only thing he wanted for his birthday was \u201ca pair of sensible heels.\u201d\nIn a later episode, when there is a girls vs. boys competition in the Glee Club, Kurt assumes he is on the girls\u2019 team. He is incensed that Mr. Schuester directs him back to the boys\u2019 side of the room, and later betrays them to the girls, explaining that his allegiance is still with them.\nAn episode or so after that, he ends up with a Slushie all over his face. His response is to turn to his girlfriends and say, \u201cI need a facial, STAT!\u201d They all duck into the ladies\u2019 room together.\nIn addition to the fact that none of these gags are actually funny, they are also indulging in cheap, inaccurate stereotyping. The gay boy considers himself a girl. He loves cross dressing. He just wants to sing and dance with his only friends, the girls. Caring for his delicate skin is the most important task in his life.\nOne thing that I have never seen with my gay friends is gender confusion. They don\u2019t think, \u201cI like boys, so I\u2019m a girl.\u201d They are men who are interested in other men. They might make jokes about how they are preternaturally good dressers, but they aren\u2019t actually spending hours trying on women\u2019s shoes or exfoliating.\nWhat really pisses me off here is that Glee is trying to pass itself off as a modern show that embraces the values of tolerance and understanding, but then turns around and others the only gay kid in the show. It\u2019s completely backhanded.\nIt\u2019s the insidiousness of the female characters, however, that\u2019s most disturbing. The show revolves around two love triangles. The first is that of the teacher, Mr. Schuester, who is in a loveless marriage to Terri, while he and Emily, the school guidance counselor, pine for one another. The second is that of Finn, the quarterback and the lead male singer in the Glee Club, who is dating the head cheerleader, Quinn, while he and the best female singer in Glee Club, Rachel, pine for one another.\nWill and Terri = Married.\nWill and Emily = In Love\nFinn and Quinn = Dating, expecting a baby\nFinn and Rachel = In Love\nWill and Finn are the good guys of the series, a pair of kind-hearted Lost Boys who have been ensnared by treacherous women and are being kept from the happiness they deserve with the Good Girls. Will\u2019s psychotic, manipulative wife is faking a pregnancy in order to preserve their marriage. Finn\u2019s girlfriend, Quinn, is pregnant and has decided to keep the baby.\nNaturally, Quinn is lying to Finn. She\u2019s telling Finn that it\u2019s his baby when it is not. She cheated on him with his best friend. In fact, she and Finn have not even had sex. He thinks that because he ejaculated while sitting in a hot tub with her, she somehow got pregnant. Finn is too naive and ignorant to know that\u2019s impossible.\n(It\u2019s worth mentioning that the friend is absolved of any real wrongdoing here. He goes on being the lovable reprobate who is guilty about what happened with Quinn, but nothing more. Quinn is the betrayer here. He\u2019s just following his horn-dog instincts. This is almost identical to the way Glee creator Ryan Murphy\u2019s other big hit, Nip/Tuck, handled the relationship between Christian Troy and David MacNamara. Christian and David\u2019s friendship trumped any reprehensible thing Christian might do because, hey, you can\u2019t blame a man for screwing.)\nMeanwhile, Will\u2019s wife is claiming to be pregnant and is using a small cushion to fake a bulge. Will does not think it\u2019s odd that he hasn\u2019t seen or touched Terri\u2019s stomach in months, and Terri has cut a deal with Quinn to take her baby when it is born. Quinn will go on with her life, and Terri will produce the baby that will save her marriage.\nTerri dodges a bullet by using her stupid, cow-like sister to blackmail the OB/GYN into cooperating. Terri\u2019s sister has been cranking out babies, \u201ceach one dumber than the last,\u201d and she threatens to sue the doctor and ruin his reputation. The doctor goes along with Terri\u2019s deception.\nNotice a pattern here? We have two good, decent men who have been ensnared by a mysterious reproductive system they do not understand, and women who use their uteruses to trap them and ruin their lives. One of the women is aided by her sister, who speaks with a rural accent and craps out kids.\nAh, but if only Finn could get with Rachel and Will could get with Emily! These are the good women of Glee, who are above all defined by their adoration for the show\u2019s male protagonists. Rachel is a sweet, loyal, generous girl who is unpopular despite talent and beauty (welcome to TV high school). Emily, on the other hand, is an awkward guidance counselor with a phobia of being touched or otherwise experiencing contact with another person. Ball of neuroses that she is, however, she finds a horse-whisperer in Will. She, too, is loyal, selfless, and honest.\nTo summarize the lesson:\nBad Women use sex and childbearing to ruin men\u2019s lives.\nGood Women are loyal and selflessly supportive.\nWhich leaves one last character to consider: Will\u2019s nemesis Sue, the cheerleading coach.\nSue is unquestionably the strongest, toughest, and funniest female character in the show. The only thing she values is winning, at everything, and right now she sees the Glee Club and its charismatic coach as a threat to her primacy as the only winner in a high school full of losers. Worse, the Glee Club actually threatens her cheerleading team, as it is pulling cheerleaders into its orbit. Cheerleading is no longer the only thing her her girls\u2019 lives. So Sue must destroy Will and his little club, using ever more nefarious and hilarious means.\nUnfortunately, Sue is also not a Real Woman.\nWe know this because she is always wearing a track suit and has her hair cut very short, giving her an androgynous look. She bites out her words like a Lee Marvin character. There is no one and nothing in her life. In contrast to Quinn, who is always in a cheerleading outfit, and Rachel, who is usually in some variant of the Sexy Schoolgirl outfit, Sue stands out as the one sexless character in the show.\nFor one episode she mellowed, appearing to be on the cusp of turning into a good person. We saw her dancing and laughing with Will. The reason? She had developed a crush. She was suddenly (and unrealistically) in love, and it changed everything. Naturally, about 3/4 of the way through the episode, the relationship collapsed. She caught him with another woman, and the relationship ended. Prior to this, it\u2019s worth noting that she had mistakenly bought a zoot suit for a dance date, not understanding that the men wore the zoot suits.\nImmediately thereafter, Sue went back to being a vindictive bitch. A man briefly feminized her, transforming her into a sympathetic character, but when he spurned her she reverted to being the harsh androygne.\nMy problem with Glee is that it\u2019s a decent show that uses heteronormative stereotypes for cheap laughs and as plot elements. There is not a single character that really cuts against the grain of gender roles, despite all the \u201cquirky oddballs\u201d in the cast. It\u2019s a show that is so charming, you may not notice that its sexual politics are disgraceful. But they are, and once you spot them, they color every scene and every line of dialogue. The show is still enjoyable, but there\u2019s something rotten at the heart of it that always leaves me uncomfortable as the credits roll.",

        "title": "The Folly of Mark-to-Market - from Roeder Financial",
        "raw_content": "The Folly of Mark-to-Market\nRalph Katz March 17, 2009\nMark-to-Market accounting may not be the cause of our financial problems but it made everything worse. FAS Statement #157 states that financial assets of a company should reflect the market value of each holding. In theory, this concept has some merit. Of course, the first European missionaries who went to South America probably also thought they were going to do good (instead of spreading a deadly plague for which the locals had no immune defenses). In practice, Mark to Market has come under increasing fire the past year for many valid reasons.\nThe Statement went into effect in late 2007 just as America\u2019s financial crisis was starting to emerge. Suppose a bank holds an asset that is performing at a good level. If someone else sells a similar asset in a \u201cfire sale\u201d situation, accountants mark down the values on the books of everyone \u2013 thus creating a very low artificial price. So what? The bank can just hold on to the performing asset.\nThere is a problem. Since banks are required to hold specified levels of regulatory capital, any marked down asset appears as a current earnings loss and the capital must be replaced. Since the market aggressively sells any bank that is low on capital, the bank has to raise new funds at the worst prices. Potential investors also know there could be a further write down. It is a vicious circle.\nAs someone who has traded for my entire professional life, I believe in markets \u2013 but only when they are real markets. We all know what happens when trading is not liquid. Spreads widen and prices are inaccurate. I always like to look at real data. Tom Brown at www.bankstocks.com has a great example ( http://www.bankstocks.com/ArticleViewer.aspx?ArticleID=5701&ArticleTypeID=2) using an actual 10-K from Capital One. The company is well capitalized and solvent according to GAAP, but simultaneously insolvent from the point of view of many market participants. Obviously, this makes no sense.\nOne of the paradoxes of Mark to Market is that issuers of bond debt can show gains in cases in which the value of their offerings has decreased! Since bond debt is a liability of the issuer, a reduction in said liability has the impact of increasing shareholder equity when the bond\u2019s liability value is written down \u2013 not a rational result. In 2007, this phenomenon resulted in many companies to record added billions in gains. Among those reflecting such gains was the first financial kingpin to fall in America\u2019s financial crisis -- Bear Stearns. The law of unintended consequences struck again with a vengeance. Mark to Market clearly amplifies the \u201cboom bust\u201d cycle of asset values.\nLet\u2019s not castigate the accountants any more than those European missionaries. Well, maybe a little, since there often is a significant increase in compliance costs. But Mark to Market needs to be fixed.\nRalph Katz Burr Ridge, IL",

[...] He translated many Russian classical literary works, as well as studied the historical and cultural past of the Romanian nation. Alexei Mateevici was the most endowed poet of Basarabia since the beginning of the 20th century, singing the beauty of his native language. The poem \"Limba noastr\u0103\" (Our Language) is the most beautiful ode to the Romanian language\u201d.\nThe map represented on the coin is the today's map of the state Republic of Moldavia, successor of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic created by Stalin as result of the aggression perpetrated in 1940 against the Romanian state.\nFrom this point of view, the association of such a map with poet Alexei Mateevici is anachronic. A natural match would have been the association to the map of Basarabia, province where Mateevici was born and which returned to the Motherland Romania less than a year after the death of the poet. The map on the coin differs form the one of the province contemporary to Mateevici, mainly in that which the north and the south of the province are missing, as these regions where arbitrarily attributed by Stalin to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, despite their belonging inside the historical Moldavian principality.",

        "raw_content": "According to the notes written and placed on every single seat by the designer himself, Louis Vuitton S/S14 is a glorious swan song Marc Jacobs dedicated to all the women that have inspired him throughout his 16-years-old journey as a creative director of the brand. The enchanting set design, made up of the elements from the previous collections (but repainted in black) served as a patched up collage of memoirs, resembling the grounds of spellbound noir Parisian carnival. The collection itself, a brilliant combination of mourning showgirls going punk the french way, embellished with the marvelous accessories was a true feast for the eyes. The overall playfulness and storytelling have struck us with a feeling of a positive melancholy and a sense of fulfillment. Thank you and farewell, Marc.\nLabels: carnival, carousel, catwalk, collection, dark, fashion, headpiece, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, noir, paris, punk, runway, showgirl, ss14",

        "raw_content": "Summer continues here in southern Ontario, and I am liking it! Today was simpy stunning with lots of sun, nice mid 20's temperatures, what else could you ask for.\nOn Sunday, Judy and I jumped into the Cruze and headed for a quick trip up north to Orillia. We left early, at 7:00 a.m., in order to arrive around 10:00 and be able to meet up with my Mom at her Church. St. James Anglican Church is a landmark structure on Peter Street in the Downtown area. Judy and I were married here over 40 years ago! Yikes! We had a great day with Mom, and were able to enjoy a great lunch at the local Boston Pizza Restaurant. Mom and I both love pineapple, so we enjoyed a great Hawaiian Pizza! We were able to help her out with some shopping that she wanted to get done, and then it was time to head back to Woodstock.\nWe knew that our friend David, was heading to Woodstock to visit us on Sunday evening! We headed south on Highway 11 and phoned David's car, only to find he was about 10 minutes behind us on the road! It was just over 3 hours to make it back, and we headed right downtown Woodstock to enjoy a great dinner with David at Charles Dickens Restaurant! This is a nice Irish Pub style place, and we had to enjoy some draft beer. David ended up staying the night in our RV, as he has big plans for today. He is heading down to stay at his Condo in Lake Havasu City, which is a 30 hour drive from here! Yikes... He will get there later in the day Wednesday. Keep those wheels turning David! His wife, Angela will be flying down this coming weekend, to join up with him in the south!\nAfter David left at 5:00 a.m. this morning, yawn, I went back to bed! Once Judy and I woke up, we headed down to the Standard Tube Trails, and put in a nice morning walk! Felt so nice in the great weather, while enjoying fall colours. Don't look now, but time is getting short before it is time to hit the road!\nAnother busy fun day enjoying this amazing weather.\nRick Doyle Tuesday, September 30, 2014\nHawaiian is my favorite at Boston Pizza as well. I've been wondering when you and Judy might be planning on heading south. Sounds like it won't be too long although with summer in Ontario, who needs Florida??",

        "raw_content": "After six years in operation, The Village Square \u2014 a Tallahassee-based nonprofit that pushes for community engagement \u2014 is expanding Tuesday with the help of former Gov. Bob Graham.\nThe plan, which has developed over the past year, will make the St. Petersburg College in Pinellas County the location for the first offshoot of The Village Square. The organization draws from community members and aims to open dialogue about local, state and national matters that affect communities.\nLiz Joyner, executive director of The Village Square Tallahassee, said she is excited about seeing the original idea expand to another city and practice the ability to talk about national issues.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really about neighbors connecting with neighbors, regardless of their ideology,\u201d Joyner said. She added the local town hall meeting is what built America and that is what The Village Square aims to continue.\nBryan Desloge, The Village Square co-chair and Leon County Commisioner, said the organization is \u201ctrying to create a venue and a way for people to solve community issues without all the rancor and visceral debate and the spiteful back fighting you see in politics today. It doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not full contact, it doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t have spirited debates, it just means you talk about the facts.\u201d\nDavid Klement, executive director of the Institute of Strategic Policy Solutions at SPC, said the movement in St. Pete was initiated by himself and St. Petersburg College President Bill Law. Law was a co-founder of the Tallahassee Chapter of the Village Square and the former president of Tallahassee Community College.\nKlement attended events in Tallahassee in 2009 and 2010 and said that he wanted to bring that kind of public discussion to his region.\n\u201cI would hope that we could emulate the Tallahassee chapter,\u201d said Klement. \u201cWe\u2019re learning from them, and we\u2019ll learn hopefully from their mistakes and can get up to their speed quickly.\u201d\nGraham is expected to speak about renewing interest in civic duty in education. He was the choice as the keynote speaker because he \u201cis respected across the state, on both sides of the aisle. He was never into the bipartisanship that exists now in many areas,\u201d Klement said.\nSen. Dennis L. Jones (R-Seminole), who oversees the Economic Development and Innovative Projects at SPC, said the goal of the forum is to bring public, not political, issues to the forefront of discussion.\nTopics that the group will discuss include a seminar in September on the eleventh anniversary of 9/11 on what Americans have learned since the event, said both Jones and Klement.\nPosted under Florida, St. Petersburg, Tallahassee, Village Square in the News by Liz 05.22.2012\nBest blog comment policy ever\u2026\nThis by way of Poynter (and Florence):\nThe Big Picture, a finance blog, offers these guidelines for user comments: \u201cPlease use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data, ability to repeat discredited memes, and lack of respect for scientific knowledge.

Restorative Justice.\nRestorative Justice is a theory of justice that \u201cemphasizes repairing the harm caused or revealed by unjust behavior.\u201d\nThe focus of restorative justice is to heal relationships, and make the victim whole. In the case of the oil hemorrhage in the Gulf the list of victims (or future plaintiffs, if you will) is long. The Ocean herself, all the sea creatures, the residents of the Gulf, and future generations, have suffered unspeakable damage from the Deepwater Horizon explosion. Restorative justice would assign blame as a way to allocate responsibility for the actions necessary to restore the environment, to restore all the relationships that are woven into the Ocean and coast. All of them.\nMany key voices have called for the precautionary principle to be employed so that something like this never happens again. Essentially the principle is an ethic of refraining from doing harm. It is another expression of the Golden Rule that says, \u201cDo unto others as you would have them do to you.\u201d This ethic is reflected in the concept of Restorative Justice. How should we behave when the damage has already happened? First we apply the precautionary principle to prevent any more harm and then we restore the environment so the cascade of damage can be stopped.\nOur work following the 1998 Wingspread Conference on the precautionary principle emphasized the necessity of reversing the burden of proof. Moving it from the public\u2013who must prove harm before something can be stopped\u2013to the proponent of an activity\u2013who must demonstrate safety before something can begin. Another way of expressing the idea of reversing the burden of proof is \u201cthe polluter pays.\u201d\nWhat are they paying for? In restorative justice they are funding the work necessary to restore the environment, to restore the health of the ocean, and to restore the lives of the people of the Gulf. Retribution is an inadequate remedy for an injustice of this magnitude. There isn\u2019t enough money in the world to punish all who are culpable. Nor is there enough money in the world to restore the Ocean to health. But if we devote all resources necessary\u2014not just money\u2014to preventing any further harm and to restoring all the relationships that have been damaged we have a better chance of achieving real justice.\n\u2190 The Grandchildren Standard\nResponding to the Gulf Catastrophe: A Public Interest Research Agenda \u2192\nRx for complexity\nOn Being an Environmental Lawyer: Storytelling with a Purpose\nLaura Steiman says:\nWe are all connected so we are all responsible, each to each. From those with the greatest resources must come the greatest responses, to heal and make things right.\nThough there are some far more responsible for the Gulf disaster than others, BP and other oil companies, more than the government, the government more than private citizens, citizens of the US more than citizens of under developed countries, etc. it seems to me that it is unjust for anyone to withhold anything they can offer that might restore the ocean and all its creatures. Surely there is a cosmic or universal justice that calls each of us and everyone of us to offer everything we can without inhibition at such a time. It is just to spend all energies and resources on behalf of healing.\nBP is at fault but that does not exonerate the rest of us from responsiblity for changing our behaviour around continuing the excessive use of fossil fuels and finding solutions that represent a balanced and more respectful relationship with the Earth and all of its inhabitants, right from the top of the food chain to the bottom. As the twelve steps programs say, \u201cHalf measures achieve nothing\u201d we must change the very core of our perspective on that relationship\u2013and for that the religions and particularly Christianity have a significant responsibility. Are we as Human beings truly the be all and end all of creation, the very image of God for whom all else has been created to use and dominate? Or are we a part of a wonderful circle of life\u2013only part like everything else in the circle\u2013whose responsibility is to maintain the balance and show respect for all the rest? All of these questions are central to the BP disaster and to the other Earth-damaging outcomes of our fueled greed. Churches, Christians, Corporations, all have a part to play in finding the balance and making right what has gone so tragically wrong.",

He intends to take photographs in the elevator, pointing his more or less concealed camera at the people he encounters there.

The whole shoot lasts 5 hours and 35 minutes and consequently features a cross section of all the social strata in the publishing house.

There isn\u2019t a hotel room to be found.\nFor brands, SXSW offers the chance to participate in an event crowded with visionaries where films premiere, technology is unveiled, and new artists perform. In 2014, Subway wanted a multi-site brand activation at SXSW where the global franchise could serve up their newest menu item, the Flatizza... both literally and digitally.\nWorking in partnership with High Beam Events, 360i and Jack Morton Worldwide, Solomon Group created a pair activations for Subway at SXSW.\n\u201cEatovations\u201d was an interactive environment inside of The Neal Kocurek Memorial Austin Convention Center, where Subway displayed several prototype products to explore how the brand might evolve in the future. A highlight of the booth was an opportunity for visitors to interact with a digital Flatizza through \u201cneurogaming.\u201d\nSolomon Group designed, fabricated and installed Subway\u2019s booth, which included A/V, integrated scenic lighting and custom graphics. We also built several interactive, custom-branded prototypes which included high-tech wearables and product packaging.\n\u201cSX Subway Square\u201d was an outdoor activation located just outside of the convention center.

We also met at Komikon in April in Manila this year.\nI believe this year's event will be the biggest STGCC so far as there is a lot of participation of exhibitors and guests from various countries in our region and beyond.\nSTGCC is a pop culture event. While comics are a big part of that and more mainstream than many believe, there are many other things to enjoy. As the name implies, Singapore Toy Game and Comic Convention also involves participation from the toy and game industries. All those also involve movies and TV series, so seeing such media in the event wouldn't be a surprise. There's also the possibility that you'll find a comic you'd enjoy!\nMy comic strip series, \"Callous\", features a physician named Dr. Rianne Nicah who happens to have a Guardian Duck, Cal Duck, and their lighthearted everyday adventures in the medical world and beyond. I'll have four of my self-published, fun-filled \"Callous\" comic books for sale in STGCC 2013. Two of which, \"Chocolate Chip Wishes and Caffeine Dreams\" and \"Take Two Spoonfuls of the Sunny Side\", compile gag-a-day strips such as those I submit to and are published by the Manila Bulletin. The other two, \"The Land of the Guardians\" and \"On Lighter Dreams\" are of the adventure/fantasy fare involving the same characters. \"Webcomics: What's Cooking?\", a collaborative charity comic book/cookbook project of many of the top webcomic producers in the world for the benefit of North American food banks, will also be available in my booth. I'll also have related merchandise such as coffee mugs, prints, posters, and button pins available.\nI'll be at STGCC on August 31 - September 1, 2013 in the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre in booth F37! You can also find my comic strip, \"Callous\", in the Manila Bulletin and at callouscomics.com!\nThe sky is the proverbial limit for comics right now with the relatively new avenues of webcomics and digital comics to explore. The comic reading experience may go beyond just looking at drawings and reading words in speech bubbles with the possibility of animated panels and accompanying speech, sound effects, and soundtracks. Creativity in comics is looking at a new frontier and it is a very exciting time to be a part of the industry right now. But there is also the fondness of the tactile experience in printed comic books that I believe can't and won't go away. There's still a lot of creativity that can be explored there.",

As a \u201cyoung\u201d mid thirties active woman, I had never really given any thoughts to that other side, our inevitable death, the place we all eventually go to\u2026and so it was some trepidation that I went over to my friend\u2019s house in order to help him out in his time of needs.\nWe live in a society when death is not something we really spend much time thinking about, particularly when we are so busy with life and even though we are confronted with images of death on the news or in the newspapers, we always seem to brush it off as something that doesn\u2019t happen to us\u2026 yet anyway.\nApparently, or so do some of friends and family members older than me tell me, it\u2019s when a person reaches his or her mid forties, that the realization of our own mortality suddenly hits us.\nThere are so many loose ends to deal with when a person we know has left this world and has put you in charge with things and if truth be told, my friend was at a loss, overwhelmed by grief and the enormity of the task ahead. How to you call distance family members of the departed, people that were never involved in that person\u2019s life and you certainly don\u2019t know that their relative had just passed away. How do you handle all of this.\nAnd then of course there are the more mundane tasks such closing down accounts, paying left over bills etc\u2026 and this is something I am good at. Being on top of things\u2026\nAnd thus I asked my friend to jot down some of the numbers that needed to be called and this is really where the title of this article came from.\nI don\u2019t why, I have no idea if I miss dialed, or if my friend mis wrote one of the numbers he gave me, but when I went home that day, instead of calling a local service landscaping company, the number I dialed had a woman treating me to a rather sexy: welcome to cheap phone sex. But here\u2019s the kick\u2026 I was so focused on the things I had to say that I didn\u2019t really hear the lady and launched myself into an explanation as to why we needed to stop the company\u2019s services and would she give the amount owed so that I might settle it on the spot.\nThe lady didn\u2019t interrupt me as I was telling her that my friend\u2019s best friend had just past away and when I was done she was silent for a moment and asked me how old this friend was. The asked in such a sweet friendly voice that I eventually broke down and spilled my sorrow over the telephone line, right inside the ear of a person I had never spoken to.\nWe spoke for a moment, she asked me if personally knew the person who had jst passed away and was the most helpful person I could ever have encountered on a day like this.\nA few minutes later, have regained some of my composure I asked if she would kindly close the account for me and this lady, this sweet woman who had held my hand in this virtual world responded that she would if she could but I had just called a phone sex company.\nIt was the funniest thing that ever happened to me. It was also very moving and I am very grateful that it was she who picked up the phone and talked to me that day\u2026\nPosted on August 26, 2015 August 26, 2015 Tags Cheap Phone Sex\nMade Possible By the Folks at webmento.org",

        "raw_content": "Read Studying the Synoptic Gospels: Origin and Interpretation by Robert H. Stein Online\nAn introduction to basic issues of interpretation for students of the Synoptic Gospels....\nTitle : Studying the Synoptic Gospels: Origin and Interpretation\nAuthor : Robert H. Stein\nStudying the Synoptic Gospels: Origin and Interpretation Reviews\nThe first part of Studying the Synoptic Gospels is an interesting, informative look at the similarities and differences between the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke and the implications that follow from that. Robert Stein presents a persuasive case for Mark having been written first. He then presents a case for Luke and Matthew having expanded on Mark by adding in information from other written sources which source critics have called Q. I found this second argument less persuasive.The second half of the book (the end of part one and parts two and three) considers the recent history of New Testament textual studies (19th century to present). It is obvious that Stein loves and values his subject, but it seems to me that little has been gained from these pursuits except that the more recent scholars have managed to dig themselves out of the hole the earlier thinkers dug for them. This section reads easily, but it isn't as interesting or useful as the first part of the book.\nThis book is easy to read and understand, making it accessible for beginning students. It's strength is in Stein's ability to layout the interlocking patterns of the synoptic gospels which aids in understanding the foundational issues and theories revolving around the synoptic solution. Unfortunately, Stein's bias toward Markan Priority hinders this book from being a quality systematic approach to the synoptic problem.\nCurby Graham 2019-01-21 12:13\nExtremely valuable and well-informed work on the synoptic issue. Stein argues persuasively for Markan priority and the value and limitations of form and redaction criticism. This is a must have for any serious New Testament library as well as that of anyone at the intermediate to advanced apologetics level.\nTo be lazy and quote from my paper for class:\"Though Stein\u2019s work is indeed useful among many tools to familiarize students with the various issues and approaches to study of the Synoptic Gospels, its effectiveness as a systematic introduction is at times undermined by its richly opinionated tone, while its effectiveness as an apology is often undermined by its summary structure.\"And if you're not asleep yet, here's some more:\"Through neglecting some obvious questions raised by the discussion, inadequately replying to others, and openly dismissing several without explaining the rationale behind their dismissal, Stein tends to veer from evenhanded dealing with scholarly perspectives.\"One hopes that open-mindedness and creativity are achievable in this topic as in others based largely on the analysis of ambiguous evidence. Subsequently, one also suspects that a better introduction would be one allowing readers to come to their own conclusions, informed sufficiently by all legitimate theories.\"***SPOILER ALERT***No scholar actually knows the solution to the Synoptic problem.\nKind of dry at times, but I really enjoyed the sections on the historical figure of Jesus.\nBooks Related with Studying the Synoptic Gospels: Origin and Interpretation by Robert H.

        "title": "Skidmore College, Officially Smoke-Free \u2014 The Skidmore News",
        "raw_content": "The spring semester is officially in full swing, and a noticeable absence hangs in the icy February air \u2014 and not just because of the cold. As of Jan. 1, smoking and tobacco use, as well as the use of all e-cigarettes and vaping devices, have become prohibited throughout Skidmore College property, including outdoor areas and on-campus residential properties. However, the college now has the responsibility of educating the Skidmore community and providing resources for users who wish to quit.\nIn a campus-wide email sent before the start of the semester, Cerri Banks, Dean of Students and Vice President for Student Affairs, reminded students of the new initiative. She emphasized that the policy is to provide the Skidmore community with a healthy working and learning environment by limiting the potential exposure of students, faculty, staff and visitors to the effects of secondhand smoke.\nAlongside these reasons, the policy also comes as a result of recent data that has shown a sharp increase in e-cigarette use among youth, and U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams warning about dangers associated with nicotine addiction and e-cigarette use.\nTo aide in providing resources for smokers and vape-users, the College Wellness Center has partnered with the Health Promotion Center of Glens Falls Hospital to prepare nicotine patches for assisting with addiction.\n\u201cWe included e-cigarettes and vaping devices in the policy because nicotine in any form is highly addictive,\u201d Banks said. \u201cOur health and wellness staff are trained to advise those who are interested in breaking the dependency on nicotine products.\u201d\nOn Jan. 27th, the college hosted a campus-wide smoke-free launch event in Case Center with live music, refreshments, goodie bags, prizes, and giveaways. At the event, Banks addressed attendees and reminded them of the culture of health and wellness that the college is currently committed towards.\nAccording to Jennifer McDonald, Director of Health Promotion at Skidmore, 38.2% of students have used or currently use tobacco or electronic nicotine devices. McDonald also added, pulling from a survey about tobacco usage in the college from 2017, that 32.95% of Skidmore student smokers are currently trying to quit and an additional 23% would like to quit within the next six months.\nSenior Carol Uphus \u201919 spoke to Skidmore News concerning her thoughts regarding the new policy. Although Uphus identifies as an on-and-off smoker, she said that the policy does not deter her from taking up the habit again.\n\u201cThe reality is that those who are addicted to cigarettes and nicotine aren\u2019t influenced by policies such as Skidmore\u2019s new smoking policy. Many people on campus recognize that the smoking policy and its advertisement is about just that: optics,\u201d she said.\nShe also added that \u201cif Skidmore is about \u2018promoting a culture of wellness and providing the community with a healthy learning environment\u2019 then there should be a focus\u201d students who are struggling with a drug addiction, in addition to smoking addictions.\nSkidmore instituted a similar smoking policy in 2012 but later revised it in 2014. Whether this policy will be truly effective remains yet to be seen. Still, this commitment to promoting a smoke-free lifestyle seems to be one that the college is not taking lightly.\nsmoking, smoke free, vaping, quitting, Student Life",

A firm understanding of criminal procedure is required before practical training in a clinic or externship. Students should take one or more courses dealing with the subject of criminal procedure.\nThe Law School offers two survey courses dealing with constitutional criminal procedure. \"Criminal Investigation\" will consider questions that arise under the fourth, fifth, and sixth amendments regarding investigations, interrogations, and charging decisions. This course, \"Criminal Adjudication,\" will look at the way the judicial system handles criminal cases. Topics will include the right to counsel (and the concomitant right to \"effective assistance\" of counsel), prosecutorial discretion and plea bargaining, joinder and severance, discovery, the right to jury trial, double jeopardy, sentencing, and appellate review. Students may take both Criminal Investigation and Criminal Adjudication. (There is, of course, no requirement to do so.)",

It takes light nine minutes to travel from the sun to the earth. Our fastest spacecraft, the Cassini, manages 40,000 m/sec at this point in time. It has taken it nine years to reach Saturn. What light would take a year to travel (this distance is known as a \u2018light-year\u2019, or 9.46 trillion kilometres) would take 7,500 years for Cassini to cover. The nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is 4.5 light-years away, or a journey of 33,750 years, at the speed of Cassini.\nOur Solar System lies somewhere towards the edge of the galaxy in which we find ourselves. We have called it the \u201cMilky Way,\u201d but it is really a swirling spiral of billions of stars. To cross from one edge of our galaxy to the other, light requires 100,000 years. As we look across our galaxy, the stars we see on the other side are as they were 100,000 years ago, when the light we now see left them.\nBut our galaxy is but one of 100 billion other galaxies in the Universe. At this time, our most powerful telescopes can capture the light from galaxies that lie 2 billion light years away.\nReflect on the smallness, insignificance of humanity in this vast universe. What could our purpose possibly be? Are we just an accident of evolution that happens to be aware of itself, or might the universe have need of sentient beings such as us? And if God is in all things, how vast does that make God?\nRecord in your Journal anything that is relevant from this experience.",

        "title": "Global View with Gwynne Dyer ~ Nuclear Posture Review - The Saint Croix Courier",
        "raw_content": "Home Opinions Columns Global View with Gwynne Dyer ~ Nuclear Posture Review\nThe US \u2018Nuclear Posture Review\u2019 published by the Pentagon late last week announced that the United States will be getting two new types of nuclear weapons to provide, in the words of US officials, \u201cmore flexible capabilities to give tailored deterrence.\u201d\n\u2018Tailored deterrence\u2019? What on earth is that supposed to mean?\nIt\u2019s a brand new euphemism designed to disguise an old, largely discredited, and very dangerous concept. The United States is once again playing with the notion of a \u2018limited\u2019 nuclear war \u2013 and everybody else is very unhappy about it.\nSergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, called the move \u201cconfrontational\u201d, and expressed \u201cdeep disappointment\u201d. The Chinese defense ministry said: \u201cWe hope that the United States will abandon its Cold War mentality [and] earnestly assume its special disarmament responsibilities.\u201d Even the Iranian foreign minister warned that the new move would bring the world \u201ccloser to annihilation.\u201d\nWhat the United States is actually going to do is change some of its existing nuclear weapons so they make a smaller explosion. It\u2019s also going to put nuclear-tipped cruise missiles back on some navy ships. At first glance, it\u2019s not very exciting stuff \u2013 but it really is very foolish, and quite dangerous.\nVarious justifications were offered for the new weapons by Deputy Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan, including the \u201cgrowing threat from revisionist powers\u201d such as China and Russia. \u2018Revisionist powers\u2019 are countries that would like to change the world\u2019s pecking order so the United States is no longer the sole superpower. It doesn\u2019t mean they are planning to attack the United States.\nThe main reason that the Nuclear Posture Review gives for the new weapons is that the US military are worried other countries may see its existing nuclear weapons as too big to be used. So the Pentagon also wants lower-yield bombs and \u2018low and slow\u2019 cruise missiles in order to convince everybody else the US would actually use them.\nReally? Do they really think when those \u2018revisionist powers\u2019 see the new, smaller American nukes (no bigger than the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima), they will say to themselves: \u201cI never believed the Americans would use megaton-range thermonuclear weapons on us, but they might actually use piddling little atomic bombs, so I\u2019d better not invade Lower Slobbovia after all.\u201d\nNonsense. The Pentagon pretends the new nukes will just fill a gap under the deterrent fence so that \u201cRussia understands that any use of nuclear weapons, however limited, is unacceptable,\u201d but what it is really after is a credible nuclear war-fighting capability. This is the old fantasy that you can safely fight a \u2018limited\u2019 nuclear war in some distant part of the world without risking major damage to the homeland.\nIt\u2019s a fantasy that has been killed many times, but it never stays dead for long. It just seems wrong and unnatural to the military mind that you should have these hugely powerful and expensive weapons and never be allowed to use them in any circumstances \u2013 that they exist entirely and exclusively to deter the other side from using its own nuclear weapons.\nIt\u2019s frustrating that in every military generation there are people who spin theories about how you might safely fight a \u2018limited\u2019 nuclear war. The first time their ideas gained a temporary foothold in American strategic thinking was in the late 1950s, and they have resurfaced for a while at least twice since then.\nHere they come again. It\u2019s as predictable as the monsoon, and once again more sensible people will have to devote time and energy to defending the core concept of nuclear deterrence.\nAs Bernard Brodie, the father of the theory of nuclear deterrence, wrote in 1946: \u201cThus far the chief purpose of our military establishment has been to win wars. From now on its chief purpose must be to avert them. It can have almost no other useful purpose.\u201d\nThat is true, but it is not compatible with traditional military thinking, so \u2018limited\u2019 nuclear wars that you could actually fight keep sneaking back onto the agenda, usually in disguise. The current proposal is not some transient whim of Donald Trump\u2019s. It has been gestating within the US military for some time.\nIt may be possible for the US military establishment to sell this really bad idea to the American media, the Congress and the White House, but do not imagine that the Russians or the Chinese are fooled. They know exactly what the Pentagon is up to, and they don\u2019t like it one bit. In due course they will respond, and the world will get a little more dangerous.\nPrevious articleDear Old Man Winter: Stop!

        "raw_content": "Congressman Bob Goodlatte Discusses Politics, Technology at Campus Q&A\nCongressman Bob Goodlatte spoke to the Southern Virginia University students, faculty and staff at a special Q&A forum held last Friday.\nGoodlatte, who has served continuously in the United States House of Representatives for 26 years, is a senior member of Congress, the current chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and the former chairman of the House Committee on Agriculture.\nDane McBride, chairman of the board at Southern Virginia introduced Goodlatte and thanked him for the role he has played in helping the University succeed since its beginning.\n\u201cEarly in his second term as a member of congress in 1996, Congressman Bob Goodlatte played a critical role in helping to make possible the financial underpinnings of the rebirth of a small college in Buena Vista, Virginia, known then as Southern Virginia College,\u201d McBride said. \u201cNow, in his 13th and last term in congress, he is, even as we speak, working to help this university to achieve its potential and promise.\u201d\nSouthern Virginia Provost and Politics Professor Jeremiah John, who moderated the Q&A session, gathered and selected relevant questions from students prior to Goodlatte\u2019s arrival, which ranged from inquiries about Goodlatte\u2019s life and career to specific policy initiatives with which Goodlatte has been involved.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a real honor to be here with all of you today; this is a school that I am very proud to represent in Washington,\u201d Goodlatte began. \u201cIt is great to be here with such a fine group of students and faculty and administrators at a school that represents the fine traditions of a liberal arts education.\u201d\nGoodlatte also praised Buena Vista and the surrounding region for its natural beauty. \u201cI tell people that it is the most beautiful congressional district in the United States,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t know of any other district which\u2026has as much going for it in terms of beautiful mountains and valleys and rivers, with the Blue Ridge Mountains on one side and the Alleghenies on the other.\u201d\nResponding to a question about his motivation to hold public office, Goodlatte said that his desire to serve and be involved in the legal process began at a young age.\n\u201cI think what drove me to Washington and Lee [Law School] was the idea that, as a lawyer, I could help people solve problems that they confront in their daily lives and their businesses,\u201d Goodlatte said. \u201cAnd serving in a legislature where we actually write those laws had great appeal to me.\u201d\nGoodlatte also discussed how technology has changed government and politics since he first took office in 1993, especially focusing on the roles of communication technology and more prevalent and accessible news coverage. \u201cWe\u2019re much better informed about what\u2019s going on, and that\u2019s a good thing, as long as the information upon which you\u2019re relying is, indeed, reliable,\u201d he said.\nHe noted that email and social media have aided in increasing dialogue between constituents and their representatives. \u201cIt makes it a lot easier for constituents [to contact us], and in terms of handling that volume, it makes it a lot easier for us to respond as well, so that\u2019s a big thing,\u201d he said.\u201d\nHowever, Goodlatte also observed that sending messages from behind a keyboard has depersonalized communication. \u201cI think that it has contributed somewhat to a reduction in civility in people when they communicate,\u201d he said.\n\u201cThe best way to approach any problem, I think, is to find ways to find common ground and collaborate, and yet messages written in anger or written in haste sometimes don\u2019t promote collaboration,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd it\u2019s not just constituents who do that sometimes; there are other people in elected office who respond too hastily from time to time as well.\u201d\nProvost John noted that, having served in Congress for 26 years, Goodlatte has been elected 13 consecutive times to represent the Virginia 6th District. John asked Goodlatte to reflect on what factors allowed him to maintain the confidence of his constituents.\n\u201cListening to your constituents and trying to work with them, I think, is the most important thing that any representative can do,\u201d Goodlatte said. \u201cI really think that elected officials are public servants, and the ones who remember that and focus on that are likely to be the most successful.\u201d",

        "title": "PENGUINS - Scientific Classification",
        "raw_content": "CLASS - AVES\nThis class includes all birds. Birds have an outer covering of feathers, are endothermic (warm-blooded), have front limbs modified into wings, and lay eggs.\nORDER - SPHENISCIFORMES\nThis order includes all living and extinct penguins.\nFAMILY - SPHENISCIDAE\nSpheniscidae includes all penguins, living and extinct, and is the only Family in the Order Sphenisciformes.\nThe Spheniscidae family includes all living and extinct species of penguins.\nMost scientists recognize 17 species of penguins:\nemperor, Aptenodytes forsteri\n\u2022 king, Aptenodytes patagonicus\n\u2022 Ad\u00e9lie, Pygoscelis adeliae\n\u2022 gentoo, Pygoscelis papua\n\u2022 chinstrap, Pygoscelis antarcticus\n\u2022 rockhopper, Eudyptes chrysocome\n\u2022 macaroni, Eudyptes chrysolophus\n\u2022 royal, Eudyptes schlegeli\n\u2022 Fiordland crested, Eudyptes pachyrhynchus\n\u2022 erect-crested, Eudyptes sclateri\n\u2022 Snares Island , Eudyptes robustus\n\u2022 yellow-eyed, Megadyptes antipodes\n\u2022 fairy (also known as little blue), Eudyptula minor\n\u2022 Magellanic, Spheniscus magellanicus\n\u2022 Humboldt, Spheniscus humboldti\n\u2022 African (formerly known as black-footed), Spheniscus demersus\n\u2022 Gal\u00e1pagos, Spheniscus mendiculus\nSome scientists recognize an 18th species: the white-flippered form of fairy penguin, Eudyptula albosignata.\nScientists recognize 40 or more species of extinct penguins. (Williams, 1995)\nScientists believe that penguins evolved from flying birds at least 65 million years ago during the Cretaceous Period. (Williams, 1995; Harrison et al 2004) As the ancestors of penguins became adapted to an oceanic environment, structural changes for diving and swimming led to the loss of flying adaptations.\nTo date, the discovery of all penguin fossil fragments has been limited to the Southern Hemisphere. Records show that prehistoric penguins were found within the range of present-day penguins.\nThe earliest penguin fossil fragments were found in New Zealand in the mid-1800's. The oldest penguin fossils date from 58 to more than 60 million years ago. (Williams, 1995)\n\u2022 Fossil records show that the largest extinct species lived in the Miocene Period (11 to 25 million years ago). Pachydyptes ponderosus probably stood 1.4 to 1.5 m (4.5-5 ft.) and may have weighed 90 to 135 kg (198-298 lb.). Anthropornis nordenskjoldi probably stood 1.5 to 1.8 m (5-5.9 ft.) and weighed 90 to 135 kg (198-298 lb.). Measurements are estimates, since only a few bone fragments have been found.\nThe extinct species of penguins began disappearing during the Miocene, about the same time that the number of prehistoric seals and small whales started increasing in the oceans. One hypothesis is that seals, whales, and penguins may have competed for the same food source. Another hypothesis is that penguins could have become prey for some of these other predators. Both factors may have contributed to their extinction.\nPenguins share molecular and morphological characteristics with birds in the Order Procellariiformes (the albatrosses, shearwaters, and petrels), the Order Gaviiformes (loons and grebes), and frigatebirds (Order Pelecaniformes).\nDISCOVERY OF MODERN PENGUINS\nThe first European explorers to see penguins probably were part of the Portuguese expedition of Bartholomeu Dias de Novaes in 1487-1488. They were the first to travel around what is now known as the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa.\nThe first documentation of penguin sightings is credited to members of the Portuguese voyage of Vasco de Gama to India in 1497. They described penguins (African) they saw along the southern coasts of Africa.\nThe discovery of South America's Magellanic penguin was chronicled during the journey of Spanish explorer Ferdinand Magellan in 1520.\nThe origin of the word \"penguin\" has been a subject of debate. The theories of researchers and historians range from references to the amount of fat (penguigo in Spanish and pinguis in Latin) penguins possess to the claim that the word was derived from two Welsh words meaning \"white head\". The most agreed-upon explanation is that \"penguin\" was used as a name for the now-extinct great auk, which the modern-day penguin resembles and for which it was mistaken.\nAd\u00e9lie penguins portray the \"typical\" penguins.",

        "title": "The confessional seal: a matter of divine, not merely human, law",
        "raw_content": "The confessional seal: a matter of divine, not merely human, law\nIn times gone by, if you wanted to ensure that a confidential letter was not tampered with before it reached its recipient, you would put some molten sealing wax on it and then mark it with your crest, creating a seal such that tampering would be evident.\nWhen a penitent confesses sins to a priest or bishop, the confession is directed towards God Himself. The confessor has no right to tamper with the seal which binds this communication but only, as a minister of Christ to give counsel, and, if appropriate to give absolution so that the person can return to Holy Communion with a good conscience.\nThere is a good treatment of this subject in Volume II of Felix Cappello\u2019s Tractatus Canonico-Moralis De Sacramentis in which he deals with the Sacrament of Penance. He points out that the preservation of the seal of confession is a grave obligation upon the confessor, both from the virtue of justice and from the virtue of religion.\nThe motive of justice is present because in hearing confessions, the priest has already entered into a binding contract in which he must remain silent concerning any sin that is confessed. However Cappello insists that the motive of religion is a greater consideration. If it were thought that priests would violate the seal of confession, it would prevent people from using the sacrament which brings one who is dead in sin back to the life of grace.\nIn the seal of confession, we are dealing not with a Church law that could be modified, nor are we promoting the privilege of the clergy: we are upholding a sacred trust given to the priest or bishop who hears confessions. Nor can the Church change this. As Cappello says when speaking of how the seal binds iure divino (by divine law):\nThe practice of the Church shows this in not acknowledging any power, even that of the Roman Pontiff, on any occasion or from any motive, of dispensing from this law.\nThis obligation under divine law derives from the very nature of the sacrament itself in which a person confesses to God, by means of the priest, the sins which he has committed. The priest may refuse absolution to someone who is not sufficiently contrite or who does not have a firm purpose of amendment. He can require the penitent to take concrete means to eliminate any future occurrence of the evil that he has done and to make reparation as far as possible. In cases where serious harm has been done to others, the confessor should indeed insist on this. What he cannot do is to violate the seal by which he is bound in hearing the confession of such a sinner. If a priest were to presume that he had the right to reveal sins confessed to him in the sacrament, it would be the most extreme form of \"clericalism\" since he would actually be attempting to exercise a divine prerogative, rather than submitting to the ministerial role that he has been given on trust.\nIn the case of grave sins which harm others, Cappello says this:\nWhere the priest, through confession, knows an evil which threatens another or the state, he can only urge the penitent, under the penalty of denying absolution, that he should either make the matter known himself, or give the power to the confessor to speak.\nThis would be the correct way for a confessor to proceed in the (very rare) event that someone were to confess to abusing children. We do not normally have murderers and child molesters in the queue for confession; the supposition that we do is a common fantasy of people who don't normally go to Church very much. But it is possible that a child molester might be so deluded as to think that he could go to confession and get three Hail Marys and absolution.\nThis is an area where the Holy See could act. It does rather seem that, at least for clergy, the time has now come to make such crimes reserved sins, and imposing stringent conditions for absolution. This would mean that a simple confessor would not have the jurisdiction to absolve such a penitent and would have to refer the case to the Holy See (preserving the anonymity of the penitent, and therefore safeguarding the seal.) Such a procedure is already provided for in canon law for certain crimes. If the Holy See were to do this, it might go some small way towards an honest recognition of the anger that people feel towards the Church.\nGetting back to the question of ius divinum, Cappello cites evidence from Origen, Aphraates, Asterius Amasenus, Paulinus, and Augustine speaking of the duty of silence regarding sins confessed and not known to others. St Leo the Great, in his letter to the Bishops of Campania refers to this as an apostolic rule. From this time, canons were issued against those who broke the seal of confession: Gratian records the penalty of deposition for anyone who violated the seal; the 4th Lateran Council imposed a further sanction:\nFor if anyone presumes to reveal a sin disclosed to him in confession, we decree that he is not only to be deposed from his priestly office but also to be confined to a strict monastery to do perpetual penance. (4th Lateran Council. canon 21)\nAccording to Cappello, this law (excluding confinement to a monastery) was regarded speculatively as remaining in force until the 1917 Code of Canon Law (canon 2639.1) which imposed the penalty of automatic excommunication reserved to the Holy See for a direct violation of the seal of confession. The 1983 Code which is currently in force imposes the same penalty.\nThere is simply no option for a priest \u2013 he must observe the seal of confession and, if necessary, go to prison or even to his death for the sake of this obligation which is binding by divine law. \u201cWe must obey God rather than men.\u201d\nThe next question to address is what the priest should say and do if asked about matter that is under the seal? That is for another post, I hope sooner rather than later.",

Right now though, I thought I'd like to talk about some of the higher level decisions we've made.\nThe first and most obvious is that the Permian-Triassic Extinction didn't happen. Instead of the Siberian Traps going nuts in less than a million years, its eruptions are more gradual and take place over the course of ten million years. Now obviously, this will have its own geological label and a unique climate: sorta a continental variant on the Eocene climatically. Furthermore, it's going to have a higher sustained rate of turnover in species and genera than the periods before and afterwards. It will be a period of evolutionary innovation and a lot of nifty things are going to come out of it. We're going to have some fun showing off here. ;)\nThe Paleozoic doesn't end until what would have been the Triassic's end: the Permian gets an extension from 251 million years ago to 200 million years ago. This makes the Permian pretty darn long: 100 million years to be exact. Truthfully, if we were looking back (or sideways, as it may be in this case), the alternate Permian would probably be broken up into two ages since there was a largish turnover during the period from 251 - 241 million years (ATL). Any thoughts from the pros in the audience?\nThe extended Permian does end with a mass extinction. It kills much the same percentage wise as did the TJ Extinction (OTL). That is to say 50% of the species will get mopped. However, there's no big turnover or domination from one side of the mass extinction to the other two/three major classes of land vertebrates. The cause of the extinction is still largely the same: the blood basalt eruptions of the Central Magnetic Province (and the opening of the Atlantic).\nA couple more things here. The therapsids and their derivatives are the dominate critters up until the KT Event: there are some parallel evolution bits happening here, but this TL is not one where the Age of Mammals comes early. Then anything goes. The oxygen dip that took place and dropped it down oh-so-low OTL is now drawn out and doesn't quite get as low either. The low point ATL is at around 140 million years ago and \"only\" reached the bottoming out of 19%. Much milder than OTL.\nThere's more, but that will have to do for now. I've gotta run.\nPosted by Will Baird at Friday, February 29, 2008 2 comments: Links to this post\nLabels: alternate history, evolution, mesozoic, paleozoic, therapsids, Xenopermian\nMaya May Have Caused Civilization-Ending Climate Change\nSelf-induced drought and climate change may have caused the destruction of the Maya civilization, say scientists working with new satellite technology that monitors Central America's environment.\nMore than a hundred reasons have been proposed for the downfall of the Maya, among them hurricanes, overpopulation, disease, warfare, and peasant revolt. (Read \"Maya Rise and Fall\" in National Geographic magazine (August 2007).\nBut Sever, NASA's only archaeologist, adds to evidence for another explanation.\n\"Our recent research shows that another factor may have been climate change,\" he said during a meeting of the American Association of the Advancement of Science in Boston, Massachusetts, earlier this month.\nOne conventional theory has it that the Maya relied on slash-and-burn agriculture. But Sever and his colleagues say such methods couldn't have sustained a population that reached 60,000 at its peak.\nThe researchers think the Maya also exploited seasonal wetlands called bajos, which make up more than 40 percent of the Pet\u00e9n landscape that the ancient empire called home.\nEmpire? hmmm.\nThis is interesting as it helps peel away more of the Mayan onion.\nLabels: archaeology, climate, climate change, Mayans\noyoyoyoyoyoy!\nLife at the moment is a little exciting.\nYesterday my daughter had her 3rd birthday.

However, previous temperature records show no evidence of the oceans cooling at this time, but instead suggest they actually warmed, presenting a confusing picture of the climate system which has long been a mystery in palaeoclimatology.\nNow Dr Carrie Lear, Lecturer in Palaeoceanography, and her team at Cardiff have presented new temperature records using ancient sea floor mud recovered from Tanzania, East Africa. The shell chemistry of pin-head sized animals called foraminifera (\u201cforams\u201d) reveal that ocean temperatures did in fact cool by about 2.50C.\nDr Lear said: \u201cForams are great tools for studying climates of the past, which helps us learn about the uncertainties of our future greenhouse climate. These new records help resolve a long-standing puzzle regarding the extent of ice-sheet growth versus global cooling, and bring climate proxy records into line with climate model simulations.\n\u201cWe have been able to use the chemistry of the Tanzanian microfossils to construct records of temperature and ice volume over the interval of the big climate switch. These new records show that the world\u2019s oceans did cool during the growth of an ice sheet, and that the volume of ice would have fitted onto Antarctica; so now the computer models of climate and the past climate data match up.\u201d\nThe team at Cardiff University\u2019s School of Earth, Ocean and Planetary Sciences will now look for evidence of the ultimate cause of the global cooling using the forams. They believe the prime suspect is a gradual reduction of CO2 in the atmosphere, combined with a \u2018trigger\u2019 time when Earth\u2019s orbit around the sun made Antarctic summers cold enough for ice to remain frozen all year round.\nMore later. :)\nLabels: antarctica, Cenozoic, oligocene, paleoclimate\nWeb Hosting?

Moreover, the coatings could also eliminate the need for expensive metals like platinum in hydrogen fuel cells.\nBoasting 1,000 times the surface area of traditional materials, the coatings can be used to retrofit existing electrolysers to increase their efficiency to 85 percent--exceeding the Department of Energy's goal for 2010 by 10 percent. The scheme holds the promise of 96 percent efficiency by the time cars powered by hydrogen fuel cells hit automobile showrooms, according to the Santa Ana, Calif., company.\nNow let's see if this is vaporware or not. :D\nCompany link.\nLabels: energy, environment, future tech, hydrogen economy\nYet Another T rex of the Oceans\npurty pic tho.\nLabels: diapsids, Europe, fossils, Jurassic, mesozoic\nLate-Holocene Lake-Level Variation in West Greenland\nSituated between the North Atlantic and the Greenland ice sheet, the thousands of lakes in the Kangerlussuaq area of West Greenland (67\u00b0N) present excellent targets for paleoclimate studies. Paleoshorelines surrounding multiple closed-basin lakes in this area record fluctuations in lake level since deglaciation. Shorelines along two of these lakes, Hundeso and Lake E, were surveyed and trenched to reconstruct the history of lake-level change. The stratigraphies of the trenches were described, and a chronology has been developed using radiocarbon dating of organic material. Preliminary results indicate a highly variable hydrologic regime throughout the late Holocene.\nHundeso had high-stand lake levels ~810 and 1950 14C yr. B.P., reaching elevations 4-5 meters above present lake level. Topographic data show that at these times Hundeso was joined with several neighboring lakes to form a \"mega lake\" that covered over 520 ha. Lake E also experienced high stands at the same time (830 and 1920 14C yr. B.P.), with lake levels 1-2 meters above present.\nThis study presents the first direct evidence of Holocene lake-level variability in this region, which can be used to constrain the interpretation of other paleoclimate proxies in cores from regional lakes. Our data suggest substantial hydrologic variation during the last 2000 years, including the highest lake stands since the lakes were formed ~8000 years ago.\nWarning, paper is a PDF.\nLabels: climate change, Greenland, paleoclimate\nBlog Roll Update: Adding a Nimvarid\nI have added Nimvarid to my sidebar blogroll.

Should it be a state? Should it be an independent country? Should it remain an unincorporated territory (ie colony)? Since I already blogged a little about Obama's stance and Hillary's fight to get the Puerto Rican delegates, I really ought to say something about McCain's stance as well.\nMcCain's stance is that he embraces the President's Task Force on Puerto Rico's Status. He is a cosponsor of Senate Bill 1936 \"Puerto Rico Democracy Act of 2007.\" He has stated that he wants to make a permanent resolution to the island's status. He has stated that he would be willing to sign, as President, either the House or Senate version of the bill. Even though the Senate version of the bill allows for Commonwealth status, McCain wants Luis Fortuno who is a very strong advocate of statehood to act as an adviser. That, and the fact that HR900 is loaded towards statehood, would imply he backs statehood.\nNews links are here and here.\nLabels: elections, expansionism, mccain, politics, Puerto Rico, Republicans, USA\nSDSC Supercomputer Simulates Pac NW 9.0 quake\nOn January 26, 1700, at about 9 p.m. local time, the Juan de Fuca plate beneath the ocean in the Pacific Northwest suddenly moved, slipping some 60 feet eastward beneath the North American plate in a monster quake of approximately magnitude 9, setting in motion large tsunamis that struck the coast of North America and traveled to the shores of Japan.\nSince then, the earth beneath the region \u2013 which includes the cities of Vancouver, Seattle and Portland -- has been relatively quiet. But scientists believe that earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 8, so-called \u201cmegathrust events,\u201d occur along this fault on average every 400 to 500 years.\nTo help prepare for the next megathrust earthquake, a team of researchers led by seismologist Kim Olsen of San Diego State University (SDSU) used a supercomputer-powered \u201cvirtual earthquake\u201d program to calculate for the first time realistic three-dimensional simulations that describe the possible impacts of megathrust quakes on the Pacific Northwest region. Also participating in the study were researchers from the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UC San Diego and the U.S. Geological Survey.\nWhat the scientists learned from this simulation is not reassuring, as reported in the Journal of Seismology, particularly for residents of downtown Seattle.\nWith a rupture scenario beginning in the north and propagating toward the south along the 600-mile long Cascadia Subduction Zone, the ground moved about 1 \u00bd feet per second in Seattle; nearly 6 inches per second in Tacoma, Olympia and Vancouver; and 3 inches in Portland, Oregon. Additional simulations, especially of earthquakes that begin in the southern part of the rupture zone, suggest that the ground motion under some conditions can be up to twice as large.\n\u201cWe also found that these high ground velocities were accompanied by significant low-frequency shaking, like what you feel in a roller coaster, that lasted as long as five minutes \u2013 and that\u2019s a long time,\u201d said Olsen.\nThe long-duration shaking, combined with high ground velocities, raises the possibility that such an earthquake could inflict major damage on metropolitan areas -- especially on high-rise buildings in downtown Seattle. Compounding the risks, like Los Angeles to the south, Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia sit on top of sediment-filled geological basins that are prone to greatly amplifying the waves generated by major earthquakes.\nA Mag 9.0 would be bad news almost anywhere there are people.

The increasing number of fully sequenced genomes available for major evolutionary groups has allowed resolution of relationships that had been considered unmanageable before.\nBut except for humans\u2019 close evolutionary ties to chimpanzees, many of the relationships among other apes, monkeys and pre-monkeys called prosimians have remained somewhat murky, according to Horvath.\nTo find out where Madagascar\u2019s lemurs fit in, the Duke team first needed to develop the tools for comparing sequences from the many lemur species to one another, and to those of other primates including humans.\nThe researchers identified stretches of DNA sequence held in common between the genomes of the human, the ringtailed lemur and the mouse lemur. These \"conserved sequences\" served as primers, allowing them to sample comparable bits of sequence across the genomes of the various primate species.\nTheir analysis confirmed that the first to branch off from the rest of the lemurs, some 66 million years ago, was the aye-aye--a nocturnal primate that taps on trees with its fingers to listen for insects inside, making it Madagascar\u2019s version of a woodpecker. They also resolved the relationships among species within the remaining four evolutionary lineages, which includes a diverse cast of characters: the sifakas, named for the hissing \u201cshee-fak\u201d sound they make; the sportive lemurs, which are strictly nocturnal; the mouse lemurs, the smallest of all living primates; and the many so-called \u201ctrue lemurs,\u201d including the blue-eyed black lemur (one of only three blue-eyed primates in the world) and the ringtailed lemur, which is often found in zoos.\n\u201cBy throwing this much data at the problem, we have absolutely confirmed, beyond any statistical doubt, that the spectacular array of lemurs all descended from a single ancestral species,\u201d said Yoder, noting that lemurs account for about 20 percent of primate species and live on less than one percent of the earth\u2019s surface. \u201cIt further highlights the importance of Madagascar as a cradle for biodiversity.\u201d\nWow. Let me repeat what they said, \"[W]e have absolutely confirmed, beyond any statistical doubt, that the spectacular array of lemurs all descended from a single ancestral species.\"\nThe paper will be in the March 1st, 2008 edition of Genome Research.\n(I <3 lemurs)\nPosted by Will Baird at Monday, February 25, 2008 2 comments: Links to this post\nLabels: evolution, genetics, primates, science\nReturn of Darth Nader\nARGH!

Teraflop computers \u2014the first was developed 10 years ago at Sandia \u2014 currently are the state of the art. They do trillions of calculations a second. Exaflop computers would perform a million trillion calculations per second.\nThe idea behind the institute \u2014under consideration for a year and a half prior to its opening \u2014 is \u201cto close critical gaps between theoretical peak performance and actual performance on current supercomputers,\u201d says Sandia project lead Sudip Dosanjh. \u201cWe believe this can be done by developing novel and innovative computer architectures.\u201d\nUltrafast supercomputers improve detection of real-world conditions by helping researchers more closely examine the interactions of larger numbers of particles over time periods divided into smaller segments.\n\u201cAn exascale computer is essential to perform more accurate simulations that, in turn, support solutions for emerging science and engineering challenges in national defense, energy assurance, advanced materials, climate, and medicine,\u201d says James Peery, director of computation, computers and math.\nThe institute is funded in FY08 by congressional mandate at $7.4 million. It is supported by the National Nuclear Security Administration and the Department of Energy\u2019s Office of Science. Sandia is an NNSA laboratory.\nSo the race is on to start working on the exaflop system. We are also are looking at this. There's a paper that some of my coworkers did recently about a machine to do exaflop \"class work\" on climate simulations. The machine they came up with based on the best fit for modern tech was so ridiculously scary that it is inherently obvious that we are going to need some fundamental breakthroughs in computer tech to get there that we have a long road ahead of us. If a petaflop system is going to take over 20-30 MW now, just imagine what an exaflop will require!\nHint, it's much worse than a linear extrapolation.\nSecond Hint: to make it a sustained exaflop system will require probably more than 10 exaflops of peak and some very good and intelligent reworks of compiler tech.\nWhen I can beat my coworkers into posting the paper I'll put a link here.\nLabels: future tech, HPC, politics, supercomputers, work\nChina to Launch Second Lunar Probe 2009\nChina hopes to launch its second moon-orbiting satellite in 2009, state media reported Friday, as the country steps up its space programme.\nChang'e-1 is the first stage of a programme that aims to land an unmanned rover on the moon by 2012 and put a man there by about 2020.\nBeijing said it planned to launch a record number of spacecraft this year, state media reported Tuesday.\nUp the ante. ;)\nPropithecus verreauxi coronatus: Too Cute for Words\nLabels: mammals, primates\nObama's Letter to Puerto Rico\n\"Puerto Rico's status must be based on the principle of self-determination,\" he wrote. \"As President I will work closely with the Puerto Rican government, its civil society and with Congress to create a genuinely transparent process for self-determination that will be true to the best traditions of democracy.

While nothing can be stated definitively, the addresses by Putin and Medvedev, both in form and substance, strengthened the sense that a transfer of political power from the post of president to the post of prime minister is in the offing.\nAs a number of observers have noted, Putin\u2019s speech on Russia\u2019s development plans was noteworthy \u2013 if for nothing else \u2013 for sounding much less like a valedictory than a speech by a national leader who plans to be in charge for a good while longer.

Ickes, who became a lobbyist after working at President Bill Clinton's deputy chief of staff, was an adviser to former Governor Pedro Rossello in the battle for statehood.\n\"If they know of Ickes' background\u2014they are going to question him on that,\" said Domenech, a Democratic National Committeeman. \"And he is going to have to answer\u2014tell them whether he is going to be advocating X or Y resolution to a problem. But the counterproposal\u2014if they go back and let's say for argument's sake they are for commonwealth, what does that do for the statehood superdelegates? They have a tightrope to walk, because they can't upset our side.\"\nThe conventional wisdom is that Clinton will win the late-scheduled primary in Puerto Rico because she has done better than Barack Obama among Latino voters so far. (On a conference call Saturday morning, Ickes suggested that the campaign was counting on Puerto Rico to put Clinton over the top in the delegate count. \"On June 7, when Puerto Rico votes,\" he said, \"she will be neck and neck and shorty after that will wrap up the nomination.\")\nDomenech argued that the status issue would be very important to Puerto Rican Democratic primary voters, who he said are about evenly divided between commonwealth and statehood.\nTwo things: first that Clinton picked a pro-statehood candidate seems like a misstep. Secondly, that PR, a territory rather than a state, might put a candidate over the top is just odd. Understandable, but odd.

Both contractors coordinated these actions with the HELSTF facility director. As of Feb. 11, seven additional Northrup-Grumman employees voluntarily resigned in order to pursue employment opportunities elsewhere.\nHELSTF is currently carrying out high-power chemical laser testing for the Air Force. This testing is scheduled to be completed by the end of fiscal year 2008, according to the statement. HELSTF must have customer support to remain active and open; if additional customers fail to emerge, there may be additional reductions in contractor staff.\nHELSTF's budget has been reduced from $16 million for fiscal year 2007 to $2.8 million for FY 2008, according to the statement. However, Congress has provided $6 million of additional funding, so HELSTF has an operating budget of $8.8 million for FY 2008.

After I went and checked them out, all they seem to be is a spider that goes out and links to blog entries with key phrases. I had thought that the spiders seem to be pretty dumb at first blush - after all what does skin care have to do with gorgonopsids?! Or pet security?!\nTwo thoughts came to me then. Either this is a way to merely draw people to their oddball site with its advertising in some vain and stupid belief that I am interested in clicking on ads from a spam site. Or, if it had been only one, site doing it that someone was testing their new automated aggregator software. However, its not one blog, but at least four.\nHere I was getting all excited about my Authority rising on technorati and...its largely fake. *sighs*\nGreg Laden has the latest Bone Yard up.

Even some bacteria and moss do it, but scientists have had a difficult time developing methods to turn sunlight into useful fuel. Now, Penn State researchers have a proof-of-concept device that can split water and produce recoverable hydrogen.\n\"This is a proof-of-concept system that is very inefficient. But ultimately, catalytic systems with 10 to 15 percent solar conversion efficiency might be achievable,\" says Thomas E. Mallouk, the DuPont Professor of Materials Chemistry and Physics. \"If this could be realized, water photolysis would provide a clean source of hydrogen fuel from water and sunlight.\"\nMallouk and W. Justin Youngblood, postdoctoral fellow in chemistry, together with collaborators at Arizona State University, developed a catalyst system that, combined with a dye, can mimic the electron transfer and water oxidation processes that occur in plants during photosynthesis. They reported the results of their experiments at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science today in Boston.\nVery interesting. I wish I knew moe about chemistry to venture an opinion about whether or not this might be scalable.\nOnce Upon the Permian: Gazes of Fear\nOnce Upon the Permian...\nWhile I have been working on my Permian ecology post, I have come AGAIN to realize that the world of paleontology lacks some good accessible works on the therapsids. There are a few, but they are ridiculously priced and few and far between. I have been thinking for some time that we need to get Darren to write a general book on the subject, but my contribution to that cause is going to be a little ways off.\nWhile exploring the therapsids, the Late Permian Ecology, and the Permian Extinction, I have been increasingly fascinated by our cousins that are no longer with us. Of the various different critters, I have been reading about the dicynodonts, gorgonopsids, and therocephalians. The therocephalians are of those three the most mammalian. I'll save these guys for another time. The other two are rather interesting and really different from ourselves.\nThe dicyondonts, however, are one of the two of those that are really different from mammals: they're our relatives as synapsids, but they have beaks, bite and chew rather differently than anything mammalian. The most famous of these happens to be Lystrosaurus. However, they are not going to be the topic of the post.\nThe remaining therapsids that I find so fascinating, gorgonopsids, are going to be the actual objects of this post's focus of attention. They are equally fascinating and interesting critters. They are not what you would expect at all. They are not reptiles. They are not mammals. They are something, fascinatingly unique. In some ways, it is really too bad that none of them made it past the Permian Extinction. They are a engrossing subject.\nThey're WHAT?!\nThe first gorgon was described by Richard Owen in 1876 in his book Fossil Reptilia of South Africa. It had been excavated from the Karoo Basin in South Africa. Owen and others did a disservice to our cousins the Gorgons and, for that matter, the rest of the extended \"family\" found in the Karoo. He referred to them as mammal-like reptiles. This miscategorization has lasted even until today. Synapsids, which the therapsids including the gorgons and our own fellow mammals, are not reptiles. We're all amniotes which is not all the same thing.\nTo be sure, it's not really fair to criticize Owen for that. He was working in a time when people were just starting to figure out the natural world. The world had been categorized in simpler terms: mammals were fuzzy, gave milk, and warm blooded. Reptiles were scaly and cold blooded. They were distinct categories and rather different. As far as they could tell there were big gaps between the reptiles and mammals and nothing that might be somewhere between existed.\nThat's what these fossils seemed to show. They had a few traits that fit with mammals. There were a lot more, at that first blush, were like reptiles. Hence, they got the name \"mammal-like reptiles.\" The name has definitely been persistant. When I was growing up it was around and even now in some of my daughter's books the synapsids, especially the therapsids, are still referred to by that misnomer.\nSo what are they really? We'll do a quick run down. Synapsids are not really reptiles, but developed along side the diapsids and anapsids. They are all descended, probably, from a single common ancestor that developed from amphibians (note: not modern lissamphibia, Lissamphibia is only one category of greater amphibia) during the Carboniferous Period. They developed adaptions to terrestrial life that allowed them to break the necessity to return to water for breeding or to keep their skin moist as has been suggested as necessary for many paleo amphibian types and, definitely, all modern ones.\nFrom there, two or three lineages, depending on whom you read, split. One is the synapsids: they had one hole on each side of the skull for the jaw muscles to attach to. These gave rise to the famous Dimetrodon, one of my daughter's favourite critters, the gorgons, and mammals. Another was the diapsids and as you might guess from their name, their skulls had two holes. These gave rise to lizards, pterosaurs, dinosaurs, and birds. The last group, the anapsids, is best known by those that are left today: the turtles. They did have a number of number of relatives in the past, but most went extinct during the Permian Extinction.\nThe synapsids would eventually give rise to what we group together and call the therapsids. Of the groups I mentioned in the beginning of the post, the one that does not appear in the above family tree is the dicynodonts: that's because they are within Anomodontia. This is where we tie back into the actual topic of the post: the gorgons, seen above as gorgonopsia.\nA Gaze Out of Legend\nAt a first glance, the gorgons look like they are something of a cross between a dog and a lizard. Almost as though some poor pit bull woke up from a night that had one too many drinks to find it had done something wild and crazy with a Komodo Dragon. Then she had to live with the consequences of it. oy. Or perhaps you might think they're just fugly otters. Either way, they do seem like they are out of someone's nightmare and made flesh - or fossil! - as it might be.\nThe next most striking thing about the gorgonopsids, if you were to look at them, is that they pack one big honking canine tooth. In fact, they are one of the first of our line, the synapsids, to have developed a sabre tooth, long, long, long before smilodon or the other felids. Like the sabre tooths of the Cenozoic, there's a lot of question with respect to how the gorgonopsids used their uber 'canines' to kill. Now if only I could get Manabu Sakamoto of The Raptor's Nest to take a look like he did for Smilodon...*hint*hint* (However...[1])\nSince we're on the topic of the teeth, let's take a look at them in general. The first big note is that like most synapsids, the gorgonopsids were heterodonts. That is to say, they had a mix of different sized teeth for different functions. It's pretty easy to see from the sabre tooth mentioned before and the incisors. However, the post canine teeth are pretty small, fewer than in earlier synapsids, and, most importantly, in the skulls recovered so far, show no regular wear patterns. This strongly implies that the gorgons didn't actually chew. They bit, ripped, and tore off their food to swallow it. When they tore meat off the carcass they would thrust their lower jaw forward to allow them to bite off meat without the interference of their sabre teeth. It possibly would have allowed them to scrape meat pretty efficiently off of bones, etc. that would have been otherwise left to scavengers.\nIf you also take a look, at their skulls, and the papers associated with them, you will find out more about the gorgonopsid senses. One of the discoveries is that in at least one gorgonopsid skull there seems to be a very well developed sense of smell. A VERY well developed sense of smell. In fact, their nose is so developed that some have suggested that this is evidence of endothermy, but we'll discuss that later. On the flip side, gorgonopsids had very poor hearing. From what has been written that I have access to, they had hearing good enough for low frequency sounds, but little to none for the higher frequencies. It could hear a herd of dicynodonts or scutosauruses trundle along, but not the buzz of flying insect. This tells us that it could have used its hearing to get a general idea of where prey was at, but could not track them if they were, well, whistling. More likely is that they tracked their prey with their sense of smell which was pretty good and their vision which also appears to have been quite good. Also odd and interesting is that in the skulls there appears to be evidence of, well, for lack of a better word: whiskers. What in the world a gorgonopsid would use whiskers for is an interesting question!\nInterestingly, this ties in with another bit: there appears to have been one confirmed skin impression for the therapsids. This was for Estemmenosuchus. There were hints in what I have read that there was one for a gorgonopsid, but it might be that the authors were conflating the two. The skin impression was not what you would expect if you were examining a reptile. It was smooth. There were no impressions at all of scales. Zip. Nada. There were pores. Yes, pores. However, there was no sign of hair. The gorgons might have had whiskers, but no hair. Odd that picture. If you were to try to imagine therapsid skin, think rhinoceros and you might be there. Partially, okay? So how does this also tie in with the sense of smell? It would seem that its very likely that like mammals today, scent glands were present. This means that gorgonopsids - and other therapsids - could have had scent and visual displays instead of sonic ones for mating and courtship. No howling. No singing or chirping. Though there might have been some impressive displays, even brutal ones, visually. And aromatically.\nMoving postcranially for the moment, there are two notable features. The first one is the stance of the legs. Most reconstructions have them slightly sprawled in the front. Some, however, disagree pretty strongly. There seems to be something of an on going fight that echoes the ones reconstructing the ceratopsians. These have been a little more muted only because the gorgonopsids are not nearly as popular. Interestingly, it does seem that those that are arguing for the more sprawled state of the front legs state that the joints are interestingly reminiscent of crocodilian ones. Namely, they think, that the gorgons would have had a 'high walk' and a 'low walk' like crocodiles do today. What's at stake though if we argue over the reconstruction of the forelegs? What's at stake is speed: how fast could a gorgon run? If they were not able to do a high walk, the answer is \"slowly.\" On the other hand, if they only did a \"high walk\" then we're likely to have seen them more as oddball wolves or bears or whatnot. BTW, no one seems to argue over the rear legs, they were straight under the body like modern mammals and, - interestingly! - ceratopsians.\nThe second postcranial detail to consider deals with whether or not the gorgonopsids had a diaphragm respiratory system like modern mammals. The answer is...we don't know. The rib arrangement on the specimens that were published on would rule against this, but I haven't found a paper on the \"completest gorgonopsid skeleton ever found\"as yet about any studies of that specimen's respiratory system though. On the other hand, Ward, I believe, stated in one of his books that it turned out not to be a gorgon after all. Anyways, if the gorgons lacked a diaphragm for breathing then again, it would cripple them for sustained pursuit of their prey or rivals unlike modern mammals or large avians. However, based on the trackways that have been found in South Africa from dicynodonts, the gorgons wouldn't have had to run fast to go after them: the dicynodonts waddled rather slowly. Both bits would lend credence to Ward's hyp/hyperoxia hypothesis for having a major impact on evolution as he outlined in Out of Thin Air, especially as to why the Gorgons didn't make it through the Permian Extinction.\nWarm of Heart? Hot Bodied?\nOne of the big debates with regard to the gorgons is whether or not they were endothermic. While they didn't have the diaphragm lung setup, they may well have still been endothermic. Some hold that the bone growth patterns do not support endothermy. Animals that are endothermic grow their bones one way, and those that are ectothermic grow them rather differently. The gorgons' bones to date seem to lean towards ectothermy. On the other hand, the nasal configuration is one only found in modern mammals...which are exclusively endotherms. The problem is that other than the bone development, the other traits from the fossil skeletons are a bit weak one way or another for supporting endothermy. The question is whather or not these traits might have developed in the therapsid line prior to becoming warm blooded. It looks like there is a good chance here that is the case since the way that I have seen the bone growth for gorgons described fits that of an ectotherm. With the above it looks pretty solid that the gorgonopsids were ectotherms and had they survived until the dinosaurs had started evolving, they would have been outcompeted. However, there is a very interesting bit of evidence is that almost equally compelling that runs contrary to the bone growth.\nThis evidence is actually paleoecological in nature. In modern ecosystems, if the predators in the ecology are endotherms, they make up a very small percentage of the total individual animals living in that ecology: the predators require far, far more prey to maintain their metabolism and that prey must be able to sustain its population. If the predators are ectotherms, they make up a vastly larger number of individuals percentage wise of the total living in that ecology. If we take a look at the ecologies where the gorgonopsids lived, what do we see? We actually see predator to prey ratios that match our modern ecologies. This would very strongly imply that they are endothermic.\nOne area that is not controversial is that the gorgonopsids wherever they lived were the top predators. There are three general locales that have provided gorgonopsids. The first two are the most famous: the Karoo of South Africa and the Urals of near Perm, Russia (whence the Permian gets its name). The third locale is in China. This would be the Shangshihezi Formation (Upper Shihezi Formation) of Jiyuan, Henan. Apparently, the fossils there are of very poor preservation though and I have only found one reference to them so far. In every place, the gorgons dominated the top predator niches. They varied from dog sized to quite large in Russia, Inostrancevia, which apparently grew at times to be as large as 4.3m (14 ft) long. If I were a betting man, I'd probably go for an Inostrancevia eating the Grizzly, personally.\nHowever, how they hunted is controversial. Some maintain that their brains were underdeveloped and too small for real social interaction. Many of the detractors of social gorgons state that they were probably solitary hunters. However, there's an issue, While there were some truly large gorgons, like Inostrancevia, the majority were dog size or a bit larger. Since a good chunk of their prey were heavily armored anapsids, the pareiasaurs, either the gorgons would have only preyed on the wounded, near dead, or young if they were solitary hunters. Or! they would have had to have worked together to bring down an adult pareiasaur. There are a good number of researchers that have suggested that the gorgons were pack hunters, or at least the moderate sized ones. The question is then, is there any evidence of any kind that might settle this? In fact there is. The Synapsids seem to have been social long prior to the evolution of the gorgons.\nThere is, however, another bit of paleobiology about gorgonopsids that is controversial: did they care for their young? Really it's nothing more than an extension of the question of just how social these beasts were. There are some workers that hold they laid their eggs and walked away. As far as I can tell, no eggs of a gorgon, or any therapsid, have yet been found. As an aside, its possible they weren't oviviparus at all: Ward brings it up. However, it appears that the question of sociality and especially of parental care might have predated the evolution of the therapsids in the synapsid line. This past fall, Dr Both-Brink of The National Museum (of South Africa) reported finding very strong fossil evidence of an adult pelycosaur in a \"family group\" with four juveniles. If this holds up and more supporting evidence is found, baring in mind that the only surviving synapsids, the mammals, uniformly care for their young and are social from the very extreme of the monotremes to the other of end of the spectrum of humans, bats and bear: we all care for our young. The simplest explanation is that parental care and sociality are primitive relative to the therapsids. To prove it, we need more fossils of prior to and continuing through the therapsid evolution. As for the gorgons? It will be a challenge to nail this one down past supposition: gorgon fossils are not very common at all and there are a mere handful of locales with terrestrial sequences at all for the time frame that gorgons existed. Perhaps in time, we'll get lucky.\nArticulus finis\nThe Gorgons had a good run of it. They first appeared in the Middle Permian and lasted up to the Permian Extinction. While that is far better than our own hominid line has done to date, the gorgons have seem to have \"only\" survived for 20 million years. In comparison, the Cenozoic - the so-called Age of Mammals comprised of the Paleogene and Neogene - is 65 million years in length. Or alternately, the theropods were the dominate - and virtually only - megafauna carnivores in the Mesozoic lasted in the same niche of top carnivore for well over 165 million years as the gorgons did for a \"mere\" 20 million years.\nTheir reign of terror was cut short by the Permian Extinction, as noted. You have to wonder what would they have evolved into had the Permian Extinction been skipped: imagine that the Permian didn't \"end\" until the Triassic of our timeline. What-if the the radical changes and innovations of the Permian had another fifty million years? Or even another twenty-three million years! Would the trend for size increase continued? Would we have seen 7+ meter long gorgonopsids that would have had ubercanines that would make a T rex pass out? Ones that were used to feed on dicynodonts that were the size of elephants? Or larger? Or would the therapsids, cut down so much by the PT Event, have generated even more odd and interesting critters? Ones that we would have have even imagined. After the exposition of the Permian Terrestrial Ecology, then I hope to do a speculative extended Permian evolution (ie What-if No Permian Extinction & consequences) in the vein of the Specworld works. I could use some collaborators (*hint*hint*).\nIn any rate, in our timeline, the gorgonopsids did succumb to the Permian Extinction. Was it because their main prey animals died out (ie the giant anapsids)? Or was it that one last remnant population get trapped by hypoxic highlands in a single remaining \"lush\" valley where they might have made it through to the Triassic only to be wiped out by a storm that carried in some rather nasty hydrogen sulfide contaminated rain? Or were the last Gorgons huddled, panting around slowly dwindled waterhole in the middle of a dying oasis in the midst of the grinding, expanding, desolate desert? We don't know. We can't know. Just ask Signor and Lipps.\nWhat the gorgons from what we have found so far, did produce what looks like 25 unique genera and 41 different species. That's none too bad really since there are only two places where there are chronologically appropriate, fossiliferous strata good enough to undercover nameable taxa: the Chinese locale has only produced low quality examples that while generally recognizable as coming from this or that family are simply unsuitable to be used for more exacting identification. That's too bad. There are so few late Permian terrestrial sequences out there, never mind ones that cross the PT boundary, that it almost feels like a crime against paleontology.\nT'were I a rich man, I'd be paying for geologists and paleo types to go out into the places where we don't have good geological maps to find more good locales. Tying back to the phylogeny aspect of the gorgons for a moment, if I were also a rich man, I'd be paying for a serious and up to date cladistic and phylogenic review. Perhaps when I get old and retire, I'll go back and get a PhD[2] in paleontology to work to cover the therapsids more. :D\nThere you have it: a basic run down on the Gorgons, the fearsome toothed, non-reptile semi-mammals from the closing chapter of the Paleozoic. I hope that it was at least somewhat satisfying. And worth the wait. I really needed to excise a lot of this from the long promised Permian Terrestrial Ecology post (it was expounded on a bit here).\n1. Hmmm. There appears to have been some work done by a former Bristol type: a one Ian Jenkins, but he's apparently not there anymore since I emailed and it bounced. I have found some (pdf) abstracts about the reevolution of gorgonopsid like \"craniodental adaptations\" in moschorhinid therocephalians after the PT Event. Apparently, whatever exact niche that drove the gorgonopsids to evolve their uber fangs to hunt was still present despite the PT Extinction munching on so much. Perhaps a Raptor's Nest review of the above for the unannoited.\n2.

Although the area is covered in ice and bears witness to some of the most extreme cold on the planet, this ecosystem is dynamic, not static, and change here has always been dramatic and intense. A report published in the March issue of Ecology argues that the extreme cold and environmental conditions of past Ice Ages have been even more severe than seen today and changed life at the Antarctic, forcing the migration of many animals such as penguins, whales and seals. Understanding the changes of the past may help scientists to determine how the anticipated temperature increases of the future will work to further transform this continent.\nExtreme cold and lasting darkness have always worked to limit the productivity of the microscopic algae in Antarctica. The availability of such algae drives the entire region\u2019s food web, from one-celled organisms to top predators such as whales and seals, making life in this region challenging for all kinds of animals.\nBut during the Ice Ages, animals in Antarctica faced conditions even more life-threatening. Massively thick and permanent ice covered most of the land, and sea-ice coverage around the continent was permanent. The Antarctic continental shelf was glaciated and most seafloor animals dodged extinction by emigrating into deeper waters.\nSven Thatje from the University of Southampton\u2019s School of Ocean and Earth Science (UK) has been studying geological records of the area for such insights. He and his team from the British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge and the German Alfred Wegener Institute have found that penguins, whales and seals were very dependant upon areas of open water known as polynyas. The polynyas, the team contends, must have existed far south of the present winter sea-ice boundaries, and far north of the Antarctic shelf.\nHow anything survived the last ice age in Antarctica is a good question. How and what died out because of the glaciation of Antarctica is an even more intriguing question. Did we lose Tundra loving xenatharians? Were there other critters there that died out all other places? The science there is a complete mystery so far.\nLabels: antarctica, Cenozoic, ecology, evolution, Pleistocene\nWell, Finally!\nClinton Wins NM Caucuses.

This marks the first discovery of another system of planets that has striking similarities with our Solar System. Moreover, it suggests that such giant planets do not favour the single-life but are more likely to be found in family groups. The research is published in the 15th February issue of Science.\nWhilst there are more than 250 planets now known, there are only about 25 such systems with multiple planets and the newly discovered system resembles our own Solar System more closely than any previously observed.\nDr Martin Dominik, Royal Society University Research Fellow at the University of St Andrews, points out \"Our gravitational microlensing technique is currently best suited for studying extra-solar planets that resemble the gas giants of the Solar System at their respective orbital radii, given that we do not need to wait for many years for them to complete their orbit.\"\nThe two newly discovered planets have revealed their existence through characteristic signatures in the received light during the gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2006-BLG-109. Rather than orbiting the observed star, these are associated with an unseen foreground star, systematically designated OGLE-2006-BLG-109L (where 'L' stands for 'lens), whose gravitational field (together with that of the planets) bent the light of the observed background star, with which it happened to be closely aligned.\nWhile planet OGLE-2006-BLG-109Lb with 0.71 Jupiter masses is 2.3 times as far from its host star as the Earth is from the Sun, the less massive OGLE-2006-BLG-109Lc, 0.27 times the mass of Jupiter resides at twice the distance from its host star as its fellow companion.\nDespite of the fact that their host star is only half as massive as the Sun, and therefore cooler, the OGLE-2006-BLG-109L planetary system otherwise bears a remarkable similarity to our Solar System. Both the ratio between the two masses of the detected giant planets (close to 3:1) and the ratio between their orbital radii (1:2) are remarkably similar to those of Jupiter and Saturn. Similarly, the ratio between the orbital periods of 5 years and 14 years, respectively, resembles that between Jupiter and Saturn (2:5).\nY'know, I have to wonder if a system like this one - and our own - requires a lower luminosity than is the norm for this to happen. hrm.

In an analysis of bills today before the U.S. Congress, New Carbon Finance research economists based in New York, Washington D.C. and London, U.K. predict that in 12 years a carbon-constrained U.S. economy that includes a cap-and-trade system allowing only domestic trades will produce:\n* A $1 trillion carbon trading market -- more than twice the size of the European Union's Emissions Trading Scheme;\n* A carbon price of $40 per tonne as soon as 2015, which will result in a rise in consumer energy prices in real terms of roughly 20% for electricity, 12% for gasoline and 10% for natural gas -- as well as impacts on other prices as higher energy and transportation costs filter through the economy; and\n* Major U.S. investments in renewable energy, energy efficiency, and greenhouse gas mitigation projects and technologies.\nThe analysis was released Feb. 14 by Michael Liebreich, CEO of New Energy Finance, parent of New Carbon Finance, attending climate change roundtable discussions at U.N. headquarters, New York.\nThat market is HUGE relative to the economy of that time.

Officials said the Navy would likely shoot it down before then, using a special missile modified for the task. Other details about the missile and the targeting were not immediately available.\nBut the decision involves several U.S. agencies, including the National Security Agency, the Department of Homeland Defense and the State Department. Shooting down a satellite is particularly sensitive because of the controversy surrounding China's anti-satellite test last year, when Beijing shot down one of its defunct weather satellites, drawing immediate criticism from the U.S. and other countries.\nA key concern at that time was the debris created by Chinese satellite's destruction -- and that will also be a focus now, as the U.S. determines exactly when and under what circumstances to shoot down its errant satellite.\nThe military will have to choose a time and a location that will avoid to the greatest degree any damage to other satellites in the sky.\nAlso, there is the possibility that large pieces could remain, and either stay in orbit where they can collide with other satellites or possibly fall to Earth.\nIt is not known where the satellite will hit. But officials familiar with the situation say about half of the 5,000-pound spacecraft is expected to survive its blazing descent through the atmosphere and will scatter debris -- some of it potentially hazardous -- over several hundred miles.\nThe officials spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter.\nHmmmm.

The hydrocarbons rain from the sky, collecting in vast deposits that form lakes and dunes.\nThe new findings from the study led by Ralph Lorenz, Cassini radar team member from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, USA, are reported in the 29 January 2008 issue of the Geophysical Research Letters.\n\"Titan is just covered in carbon-bearing material--it's a giant factory of organic chemicals,\" said Lorenz. \"This vast carbon inventory is an important window into the geology and climate history of Titan.\"\nAt a balmy minus 179o C , Titan is a far cry from Earth. Instead of water, liquid hydrocarbons in the form of methane and ethane are present on the moon's surface, and tholins probably make up its dunes. The term 'tholins' was coined by Carl Sagan in 1979 to describe the complex organic molecules at the heart of prebiotic chemistry.\nCassini has mapped about 20% of Titan's surface with radar. Several hundred lakes and seas have been observed, with each of several dozen estimated to contain more hydrocarbon liquid than Earth's oil and gas reserves. The dark dunes that run along the equator contain a volume of organics several hundred times larger than Earth's coal reserves.\nOh James!!! Is this as good as the He3 moon colonization taunts I send you?\nA bit more seriously, this is a pretty exciting discovery.\nLabels: energy, humor, saturn, silly, space exploration, Titan\nCanuckistani \"Cure\" for the Common Cold?\nResearchers at McGill University have discovered a way to boost an organism\u2019s natural anti-virus defences, effectively making its cells immune to influenza and other viruses.\nThe research was conducted by post-doctoral fellows Dr. Rodney Colina and Dr. Mauro Costa-Mattioli, working in collaboration with Dr. Nahum Sonenberg, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute International Scholar at McGill. They worked with colleagues at l'Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montr\u00e9al (IRCM) and the Ottawa Health Research Institute (OHRI). Their results are to be published February 13 in the journal Nature.\nTheir process \u2013 which could lead to the development of new anti-viral therapies in humans \u2013 involved knocking out two genes in mice that repress production of the protein interferon, the cell\u2019s first line of defence against viruses. Without these repressor genes, the mouse cells produced much higher levels of interferon, which effectively blocked viruses from reproducing. The researchers tested the process on influenza virus, encephalomyocarditis virus, vesicular stomatitis virus and Sindbis virus.\n\u201cPeople have been worried for years about potential new viral pandemics, such as avian influenzas,\u201d Dr. Sonenberg said. \u201cIf we might now have the means to develop a new therapy to fight flu, the potential is huge.\u201d\nI wonder if it will work on humans as well as it did on mice. Also I have to wonder what the problems of that much more interferon would be. Would this work on all viruses/virii? If so this could be a huge breakthrough.\nI know nada to comment more.

It's also been found to be unconstitutional. However, at hand here, since the party delegate count is so close its entirely possible that Puerto Rico might be the deciding set of delegates. It all depends on who ends up controlling the delegates from the territory.\n(and, yes, folks, the territories do get to vote in the primaries for the parties. it's the general election that they can't/don't. fyi)\nSmall Update: Turns out he's a superdelegate for the Democratic Party and PR's primary is on June 7th.\nRussia Threatens Ukraine\nRussia has said it may target its missiles at Ukraine if its neighbour joins Nato and accepts the deployment of the US missile defence shield.\nRussian President Vladimir Putin made the comments in Moscow alongside Ukraine's President, Viktor Yushchenko.\nMr Putin has condemned US plans to include Poland and the Czech Republic in its missile defence shield.\nThe leaders had been meeting in urgent talks over a gas dispute and announced a deal to avoid disrupting supplies.\nSpeaking at a news conference at the Kremlin on Tuesday, Mr Putin said he had advised Ukraine not to join Nato, but admitted he would be unable to interfere in any such move.\n\"Restrictions on sovereignty... have already had certain consequences, such as the stationing of bases or a positioning area for missile defence in Eastern Europe, which we believe is aimed at neutralising our nuclear missile potential,\" he said.\n\"Russia therefore faces a need to take retaliatory action.\"\noy. The missile defense system proposed by the US for installation in Poland and Czech Republic is only sufficient to take the option of a single, double, or at best an ten missile salvo off the table. This causes issues only for those nations with a handful of missiles. However, as I wrote before, Russia finds this unacceptable as a limit on their use of nuclear weapons in specific scenarios.\nLabels: Europe, missile defense, NATO, Russia, Ukraine, USA\nUS Considering ASAT Shot\nU.S. officials are studying the possibility of shooting down the errant Lockheed Martin intelligence satellite that was launched into space for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO).\nThe concern is that the spacecraft carries a full tank of hydrazine - a toxic propellant - that would have been used to reposition the satellite in orbit. Government analysts say the odds are that the tank will crack open during re-entry or than it will land in the ocean, which makes up 70% of the area where the breaking up satellite might land. There also is concern in some quarters that debris could reveal U.S. national security secrets if recovered by other nations. It is expected to re-enter the atmosphere late this month or in early March.\nAnalysts at the Missile Defense Agency and NRO have put hundreds of hours into analysis and have studied closely the accuracy of surveillance capabilities of U.S. radars in Japan, Alaska and possibly elsewhere to give more targeting options to those assessing the danger of the satellite falling to Earth.\nA senior official with insight into the planning says that a rumor that the satellite carried a small, nuclear generator is \"absolutely and totally incorrect.\" However, government agencies including MDA and NRO \"are studying options that include\" hitting the satellite with a weapon so that it breaks up in space - and ruptures the hydrazine tank -- before beginning its descent.\nIf the hydrazine tank did hit a populated area intact, and depending on winds and the dynamics of \"plumeology,\" the impact could affect humans - perhaps kill some - out to a distance of \"20-30 yards,\" the official says.\nHoo boy.

        "raw_content": "Obama And Romney Both Favor A One World Economic System That Kills American Jobs\nEither way this election turns out, American jobs are going to continue to get slaughtered by the millions. During this campaign, Mitt Romney and Barack Obama have both attempted to portray each other as the \u201coutsourcer in chief\u201c. Unfortunately, they are both right. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have both participated in the outsourcing of American jobs, and both are openly admitting to the American people that they favor the emerging one world economic system which will continue to destroy millions of American jobs. In fact, they argue with each other about which of them will be more aggressive in pursuing more \u201cfree trade\u201d agreements over the next four years. Unfortunately, the \u201cfree trade\u201d agreements that the U.S. government enters into are never \u201cfair trade\u201d agreements. As a result, over the past decade we have lost tens of thousands of businesses, millions of jobs and trillions of dollars of national wealth. This year alone, we will buy about half a trillion dollars more stuff from the rest of the world than they will buy from us. This trade deficit will be about 7 times larger than the trade deficit of any other nation on earth. Our economy will continue to bleed jobs at a horrifying pace, but Obama and Romney insist that the answer to our problems is even more \u201cfree trade\u201d. What makes all of this even more dreadful is that most Americans continue to fall for this nonsense.\nIt doesn\u2019t take a genius to figure out that merging our labor pool with the labor pools of nations where it is legal to pay slave labor wages was going to kill American jobs and drive down wages for the jobs that remain in the United States.\nWhy should some giant predator corporation pay you 15 dollars an hour plus benefits when they can pay a worker on the other side of the planet a dollar an hour with no benefits to do the same job?\nDuring the second presidential debate, when Obama was asked why high tech products such as the iPhone could not be made here in the United States, Obama openly admitted that there are some jobs that aren\u2019t ever going to come back.\nBut why does that have to be so?\nWhy can\u2019t those jobs come back to America?\nIt seems to me that if you cracked down on nations that are cheating such as China, imposed a system of common sense tariffs and cut the corporate tax rate to a level more consistent with the rest of the world that you could get a lot of those jobs flooding back in by the end of next year.\nBut Obama is so blinded by his faith in the emerging one world economy that such measures are unimaginable to him.\nIn recent years, the Obama administration has entered into new \u201cfree trade\u201d agreements with Panama, South Korea and Colombia. In addition, the Obama administration is making the Trans-Pacific Partnership (\u201cthe NAFTA of the Pacific\u201c) a very high priority.\nConsidering what a nightmare the first NAFTA was, do we really need another one?\nThe Trans-Pacific Partnership is a treaty that would essentially ban all \u201cBuy American\u201d laws. It is being touted as one of the most comprehensive \u201cfree trade\u201d agreements in history, and it would open up the door for millions more good jobs to be shipped out of the country.\nThe workers of America simply cannot afford another four years of Barack Obama.\nIn fact, the Obama administration has actually spent billions of taxpayer dollars to create jobs in other countries. The following is from a pro-Republican website\u2026\nOver his four years in office, Obama promised that he would focus on creating \u201cjobs that pay well and can\u2019t be outsourced.\u201d However, as he racked up trillions in new debt, billions of dollars did go to create jobs that were outsourced or spent overseas. Whether it is electric cars made in Finland or solar panels in Mexico, taxpayers would be astonished to learn that their hard earned money went abroad for jobs that weren\u2019t created in the United States.\nYou can get all the details right here. Needless to say, the Obama administration has been an absolute disaster on these issues.\nSo would Romney be an improvement when it comes to trade?\nThat is very doubtful.\nThe truth is that Mitt Romney was involved in outsourcing jobs while he was at Bain Capital. The following is from a recent article posted on Forbes.com\u2026\nDavid Corn of Mother Jones reports that \u201caccording to government documents . . . Romney, when he was in charge of Bain [Capital], invested heavily in a Chinese manufacturing company that depended on US outsourcing for its profits\u2014and that explicitly stated that such outsourcing was crucial to its success.\u201d\nThis didn\u2019t happen after 1999, when Mitt Romney says he left Bain Capital to run the Salt Lake City Olympics (Corn was one of the first reporters to raise questions, now gaining wide exposure, of whether Romney really left Bain then), but the year before. On April 17, 1998, Brookside Capital Partners Fund, a Bain Capital affiliate of which Romney was the sole shareholder, sole director, president, and chief executive, invested an estimated $14.2 million in Global-Tech, an appliance maker in Dongguan, China. Global-Tech made products for American companies like Sunbeam, Hamilton Beach, Mr. Coffee, and Proctor-Silex. In September 1998 Global-Tech\u2019s CEO announced that the company was postponing a factory expansion because Sunbeam was slowing its rate of outsourcing, and said, \u201cAlthough it appears that customers such as Sunbeam are not outsourcing their manufacturing as quickly as we had anticipated, we still believe that the long-term trend toward outsourcing will continue.\u201d\nSince Romney left, Bain Capital has become even more aggressive with outsourcing jobs. In fact, Bain Capital has been forcing American workers to train their Chinese replacements even in the midst of this campaign. Aren\u2019t they concerned that they are making their former boss look bad? The following is from an article written by an American worker that is having his job shipped to China by Bain Capital\u2026\nOn Monday, November 5th Bain Capital is outsourcing my job to China. On Tuesday, November 6th I\u2019m casting my vote against Mitt Romney.\nYes, I blame Mitt Romney for the loss of my job. Here\u2019s why.\nI\u2019ve worked at the same factory in Freeport, Ill. for thirty-three years, making sensors and controls for the auto industry. It\u2019s tough work, but it pays a living wage with health benefits that folks can count on, and it fuels our town\u2019s economy and tax base.\nThat\u2019s been changing since Bain Capital came to town. Two years ago, our factory was sold to Sensata Technologies, a company created by Bain Capital, and they told us that by December 2012, all 170 of our jobs would be shipped to China. They even made us train our Chinese replacements.\nLayoff notices have been sent out, and some folks have already been laid off. Where there was once lots of people and energy and life, now there\u2019s only the discoloration on the floor where the machinery used to be. It\u2019s depressing. They\u2019re not just dismantling the equipment and the plant; they\u2019re dismantling our community.\nAll of this outsourcing is killing America.\nBack in 1950, the population of this country was less than half of what it is now, and yet there were more Americans working in manufacturing back in 1950 than there are today.\nThe decline in manufacturing jobs in the United States has been really dramatic since the year 2000.\nIn 2000, there were more than 17 million Americans working in manufacturing, but now there are less than 12 million\u2026\nI think that it is interesting to note that China joined the WTO in 2001. Since that time we have been losing jobs to them at an astounding pace. According to a new report by the Economic Policy Institute, U.S. trade with China \u201ccost more than 2.7 million jobs between 2001 and 2011\u201d.\nThe Chinese slap huge tariffs on many of our goods, they manipulate currency rates to make sure that U.S. companies cannot compete, they steal our intellectual property and they deeply subsidize their own businesses.\nAnd yet Obama and Romney insist that this is \u201cfree trade\u201d.\nAnd our tax structure is absolutely killing us as well. The following is from a recent article by Ernest F. Hollings\u2026\nA U.S. manufacturer exporting to China pays the 35% Corporate Tax and a 17% VAT when its exports reach Shanghai. A China manufacturer exports tax free to the U.S.\nOur trade policy is a complete and total disaster, and yet Obama and Romney continue to insist that we just need to become even more integrated with the emerging one world economic system.\nWell, in a previous article I listed 22 statistics which prove that the current path that we are on has been absolutely disastrous for American workers\u2026\n#1 One professor has estimated that cutting the U.S. trade deficit in half would create 5 million more jobs in the United States.\n#2 The United States has a trade imbalance that is more than 7 times larger than any other nation on earth has.\n#3 Overall, the United States has run a trade deficit of more than 8 trillion dollars with the rest of the globe since 1975. That 8 trillion dollars could have gone to support U.S. businesses and pay the wages of U.S. workers. Federal, state and local taxes would have been paid on that 8 trillion dollars if it had stayed in the United States.\n#4 When NAFTA was passed in 1993, the United States had a trade surplus with Mexico of 1.6 billion dollars. In 2010, we had a trade deficit with Mexico of 61.6 billion dollars.\n#5 In 2001, American consumers spent 102 billion dollars on products made in China. In 2011, American consumers spent 399 billion dollars on products made in China.\n#6 The Chinese undervalue their currency by about 40 percent in order to gain a critical advantage over foreign competitors. This means that many Chinese companies are able to absolutely thrive while their competition in the United States goes out of business. The following is from a recent Fox News article\u2026.\nTo keep Chinese products artificially inexpensive on US store shelves, Beijing undervalues the yuan by 40 percent. It pirates US technology, subsidizes exports and imposes high tariffs on imports.\n#7 According to the New York Times, a Jeep Grand Cherokee that costs $27,490 in the United States costs about $85,000 in China thanks to all the tariffs.\n#8 The U.S. trade deficit with China during 2011 was 295.4 billion dollars. That was the largest trade deficit that one nation has had with another nation in the history of the world.\n#9 Back in 1985, our trade deficit with China was only about 6 million dollars (million with an \u201cm\u201d) for the entire year.\n#10 U.S. consumers spend about 4 dollars on goods and services from China for every one dollar that Chinese consumers spend on goods and services from the United States.\n#11 The United States has actually lost an average of about 50,000 manufacturing jobs a month since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001.\n#12 According to the Economic Policy Institute, America is losing about half a million jobs to China every single year.\n#13 The United States has lost more than 56,000 manufacturing facilities since 2001.\n#14 During 2010 alone, an average of 23 manufacturing facilities closed their doors in America every single day.\n#15 Since the auto industry bailout, approximately 70 percent of all GM vehicles have been built outside the United States.\n#16 As I have written about previously, 95 percent of the jobs lost during the last recession were middle class jobs.\n#18 The percentage of working age Americans that are employed right now is actually smaller than it was at the end of the last recession.\n#19 The average duration of unemployment in the United States is nearly three times as long as it was back in the year 2000.\n#20 Due in part to the globalization of the labor pool, only about 24 percent of all jobs in the United States are \u201cgood jobs\u201d at this point.\n#21 Without enough good jobs, more Americans than ever before are falling into poverty. Today, more than 100 million Americans are on welfare.\n#22 In recent years the U.S. economy has embraced \u201cfree trade\u201d and the emerging one world economy like never before. Instead of increasing the number of jobs in our economy, it has resulted in the worst stretch of job creation in the United States in modern history\u2026.\nIf any single number captures the state of the American economy over the last decade, it is zero. That was the net gain in jobs between 1999 and 2009\u2014nada, nil, zip. By painful contrast, from the 1940s through the 1990s, recessions came and went, but no decade ended without at least a 20 percent increase in the number of jobs.\nAt this point, more than 41 percent of all working age Americans do not have a job, and the vast majority of the new jobs that are being created are low paying jobs.\nMedian household income has fallen for four years in a row. In fact, median household income is down by more than $4000 since Barack Obama entered the White House.\nOne recent survey found that about 40 percent of all Americans have $500 or less in savings. We are a country that is full of broke people.\nWhat we need are more good jobs. But Obama and Romney are both determined to keep shipping good jobs out of the country.\nThe path that we are on will only lead to disaster. Please wake up America.\nThe Worst In The World \u2013 The U.S. Balance Of Trade Is Mind-Blowingly Bad\nDid you know that we buy about a half a trillion dollars more stuff from the rest of the world than they buy from us? The U.S. balance of trade is not only mind-blowingly bad \u2013 it is the worst in the world. It is being projected that the U.S. trade deficit for 2011 will be 558.2 billion dollars. That would be an increase of more than 11 percent from last year. As I have written about previously, the United States is the worst in the world at a lot of things, but as far as the economic well-being of our nation is concerned, our balance of trade is particularly important. Every single month, far more money goes out of this country than comes into it. Tax revenues are significantly reduced as all of this money gets sucked out of our communities. The federal government, state governments and local governments borrow gigantic piles of money to try to make up the difference, but all of this borrowing just makes our debt problems a whole lot worse. In the end, no amount of government debt is going to be able to cover over the fact that our national economic pie is shrinking. We are continually consuming far more wealth than we produce, and that is a recipe for economic disaster.\nThe \u201ccurrent account balance\u201d is one key indicator of how a country is doing economically. The following is how the CIA World Factbook defines \u201ccurrent account balance\u201d\u2026.\nThis entry records a country\u2019s net trade in goods and services, plus net earnings from rents, interest, profits, and dividends, and net transfer payments (such as pension funds and worker remittances) to and from the rest of the world during the period specified.\nIf someone were to ask you what countries in the world have strong, thriving economies right now, what countries would you think of?\nWould countries like China, Germany, Russia and Saudi Arabia come to mind?\nWell, all of those nations have huge positive current account balances. In fact, China has the best current account balance in the world at +$305 billion.\nSo who is on the other end of the scale?\nThe following information comes directly from a CIA World Factbook chart\u2026.\n190 Turkey $ -48,420,000,000\n191 Canada $ -48,500,000,000\n192 India $ -51,780,000,000\n193 France $ -54,400,000,000\n194 United Kingdom $ -56,190,000,000\n195 Spain $ -63,650,000,000\n196 Italy $ -67,940,000,000\n197 United States $ -470,200,000,000\nThe United States is rated dead last at number 197.\nJust take a close look at those numbers for a minute.\nThe U.S. had a current account balance of negative 470 billion dollars in 2010. That figure was almost 7 times worse than the next worst country (Italy).\nNot only does the United States have the worst current account balance in the entire world, the truth is that no other country is even in the same ballpark as us.\nWe are bleeding wealth so fast that it is hard to even describe it.\nBut perhaps a real life example can help put this all into perspective.\nOne 22-year-old Saudi Arabian student has a collection of sports cars that is worth more than 12 million dollars. Reportedly, his collection includes at least three Lamborghinis, five Ferraris and five Porsches.\nAnd guess who paid for it?\nEvery month, billions of dollars go out of the United States to help pay for the insane lifestyles of the ultra-wealthy oil barons of the Middle East.\nMeanwhile, dozens of major U.S. cities are degenerating into hellholes.\nOnce upon a time, Detroit was one of the greatest industrial cities that the world has ever seen. It was the envy of the entire globe.\nBut now Detroit is an utter nightmare\u2026.\n*An analysis of census figures found that 48.5% of all men living in Detroit from age 20 to age 64 did not have a job in 2008.\n*If you can believe it, the median price of a home in Detroit is now just $6000.\n*Only 25 percent of students in Detroit graduate from high school.\nSo what happened to Detroit?\nWell, just as has been happening in so many other U.S. cities, industry has been leaving at an astounding pace.\nAs I have written about previously, an average of 23 manufacturing facilities a day were shut down in the United States during 2010.\nOverall, the U.S. has lost a total of more than 56,000 manufacturing facilities since 2001.\nThis country is bleeding middle class jobs profusely, and neither major political party seems to care.\nAmerican family budgets are being stretched tighter and tighter these days. There are not nearly enough good jobs to go around and yet the cost of everything just seems to keep going up.\nMany families are going into massive amounts of debt in an attempt to make ends meet. According to a recent CNN article, credit card use in the United States is experiencing a major upswing once again\u2026.\nPurchases made with credit cards rose 8.2% in the first quarter of 2011, 9% in the second quarter and 10.6% in the third quarter, according to First Data.\nOf course American consumers were out in force on Black Friday once again this year. They gleefully filled up their carts with cheap plastic crap made overseas, and many racked up huge credit card balances in the process.\nBut most of us never stop to think about those that make all of these cheap plastic products for us.\nThanks to the globalization of the economy, big corporations and corrupt governments can make stuff in countries where it is legal to pay slave labor wages and then ship their products into the United States for free.\nIt is important for all of us to learn what actually happens to these people that are working so hard for slave labor wages. The following comes from a recent article in the Guardian\u2026.\nHow in the world are American workers supposed to \u201ccompete\u201d for jobs at those wage levels?\nAs I have written about previously, Professor Alan Blinder of Princeton University is warning that 40 million more U.S. jobs could be sent offshore over the next two decades if nothing is done to stop this.\nBut instead, our \u201crepresentatives\u201d in Congress just keep pushing more \u201cfree trade\u201d agreements as the answer to our problems. Congress has passed new free trade agreements with South Korea, Colombia and Panama, and the Obama administration has made \u201cthe NAFTA of the Pacific\u201d a very high priority.\nWell, if \u201cfree trade\u201d is supposed to create so many jobs, then why was last decade the worst decade for the creation of jobs since the Great Depression?\nIf you can believe it, zero jobs were created between 1999 and 2009. The following comes from an article in Washington Monthly\u2026.\nBut our leaders don\u2019t care about us. In fact, even the members of Obama\u2019s \u201cjobs panel\u201d have been shipping jobs out of the United States at a very rapid pace.\nThe U.S. has run a negative balance of trade with the rest of the globe every single year since 1976. During that time, the U.S. has run up a total trade deficit of more than 7.5 trillion dollars with the rest of the planet.\nThat 7.5 trillion dollars could have gone to support U.S. workers and U.S. businesses.\nBut it didn\u2019t. Instead, it went out of the country and it made foreigners wealthier as our own cities slowly rotted.\nNow we are actually passing laws that encourage wealthy foreigners to come in and buy up pieces of the United States.\nFor example, there is actually a bill in Congress that would automatically give residence visas to any foreigners that are willing to spend at least half a million dollars to buy houses inside the United States.\nThe idea behind the bill is that this will get the housing market moving again.\nThere aren\u2019t enough Americans with good jobs to buy houses, so we have now decided to beg foreigners to buy them.\nHow bizarre is that?\nUntil our horrendous balance of trade is fixed, the employment situation in this country is going to continue to get worse.\nAny politician that tries to sell you on a \u201cjobs plan\u201d that does not address our balance of trade is either totally incompetent or is straight out lying to you.\nThe economic infrastructure of America is crumbling a little bit more every single day. If something dramatic is not done, we will continue to bleed businesses, bleed jobs and bleed wealth.\nPlease share this information with as many people as you can. The American people need to understand what is happening to the economy. We need to work to wake up as many people as we can before it is too late.\nThe Number One U.S. Export To China: Waste Paper And Scrap Metal\nHistorians tell us that by the very end of the Roman Empire, goods were pouring into Rome from all over the known world, but about the only thing being sent out of Rome was human waste and garbage. America has not yet reached that point, but we are certainly well on our way. In 2010, the number one U.S. export to China is \u201cscrap and trash\u201d. Yes, you read the correctly. The number one thing that China buys from us is our garbage. According to author Clyde Prestowitz, China\u2019s number one export to the U.S. is computer equipment (nearly $50 billion) while our number one export to them is waste paper and scrap metal (approximately $8 billion). When it comes to world trade, China is literally wiping the floor with the United States. In August, the U.S. trade deficit with China set a new one month record of $28 billion dollars. Our insane trade policies are making China (along with several of our other \u201ctrade partners\u201d) incredibly wealthy, and the U.S. government ends up begging China to lend that money back to us to fund the exploding U.S. national debt. That just isn\u2019t stupidity \u2013 that is insanity.\nThe truth is that our \u201ctwin deficits\u201d are literally bankrupting this nation. We are completely and totally destroying the economic future of our children and grandchildren.\nBut hey, the Vikings beat the Cowboys, Dancing With The Stars is heating up and we all have a bunch of DVDs to get caught up on so why worry ourselves, right?\nUnfortunately, the reality is that we can\u2019t afford to be \u201ccomfortably numb\u201d any longer if we hope to have any kind of a future.\nIt is time to wake up people.\nSadly, a significant percentage of young Americans these days can\u2019t even tell you what a \u201ctrade deficit\u201d is.\nIf you don\u2019t believe this, just try a little experiment some time. Just go up to a few young Americans on the street and ask them to define \u201ctrade deficit\u201d for you.\nBut fortunately, the vast majority of the readers of this column are quite informed. Unfortunately, I still don\u2019t believe that most of you really understand how incredibly dangerous the trade deficit is.\nSo just how dangerous is the trade deficit? Well, world famous investor Warren Buffett once put it this way\u2026.\n\u201cThe U.S trade deficit is a bigger threat to the domestic economy than either the federal budget deficit or consumer debt and could lead to political turmoil\u2026 Right now, the rest of the world owns $3 trillion more of us than we own of them.\u201d\nBetween 2000 and 2009, America\u2019s trade deficit with China skyrocketed nearly 300 percent. Wealth, factories and jobs are leaving the United States at an astounding pace. The danger that this represents to our economy is so vast that it is hard to even describe.\nIf you ever find yourself in a debate with proponents of \u201cfree trade\u201d, you can almost always get them to eventually admit that \u201cfree trade\u201d will raise the standard of living for workers in countries like China while significantly lowering the standard of living for U.S. workers, but that this must be done for the good of the emerging \u201cglobal economy\u201d.\nOf course U.S politicians never really mention this nasty little fact when they give speeches about how wonderful our trade policies are. They never really get around to mentioning that \u201cfree trade\u201d is one of the key foundations of \u201cglobalism\u201d and that we are being merged into a one world economy.\nToday, American workers do not just compete with other American workers. Instead, U.S. workers now find themselves in direct competition for jobs with workers in China that makes less than a tenth of what an American worker would make. In China, a garment worker makes approximately 86 cents an hour. Apple iPhones are manufactured in China by workers making about 293 dollars a month (and that was after a big raise).\nSo exactly how long do you think you and your family would be able to survive on 293 dollars a month?\nBut unfortunately, millions more Americans will lose their jobs and millions more Americans will be forced to take a cut in pay in order to compete in the new global economy.\nAccording to a disturbing new study by the Economic Policy Institute, if the trade deficit with China continues to increase at its current rate, the U.S. economy will lose over half a million jobs this year alone.\nThe sad truth is that it is NOT a good time to be a blue collar worker in America. If your job does not get offshored or outsourced, then it is likely to be made obsolete by computers and automation.\nThe need for manual labor is rapidly declining in today\u2019s world. For example, there is a Japanese firm called Fanuc, Ltd. that actually has industrial robots manufacturing other industrial robots in a \u201clights out\u201d factory.\nBut things wouldn\u2019t be quite as bad for U.S. workers if China was not cheating so badly. The truth is that they just do not play the game fairly.\nFor instance, it is estimated that the Chinese government is keeping China\u2019s currency valued about 40 percent lower than it should be. This is essentially a de facto subsidy to China\u2019s exporters.\nThere has been a little bit of rumbling in the Obama administration about this in recent weeks, but it is quite unlikely that they will push China too far on this issue. After all, the Obama administration desperately needs China to keep loaning us massive quantities of money so that we can keep funding our runaway debt.\nIf you sit back and objectively analyze the facts, it quickly becomes undeniable that China is beating the living crap out of us economically. In fact, one prominent economist is projecting that the Chinese economy will be three times larger than the U.S. economy by the year 2040 if current trends continue.\nThis all could have been turned around a decade or two ago, but now China has us by the throat. At any time, China could decide to start selling off massive quantities of U.S. Treasuries. At any time, China could decide to cut off our supply of rare earth elements (of which they have a virtual monopoly).\nChina is now even the number one supplier of components that are critical to the operation of U.S. defense systems. How smart were we to allow that to happen?\nIt is a direct threat to national security for China to have so much leverage over us. But you rarely hear anyone talking about this.\nThe truth is that trade with China is not a left/right issue. As I have written about previously, it is impossible for any self-respecting conservative to justify our trade policies with China and it is impossible for any self-respecting liberal to justify our trade policies with China.\nYet very few current members of the U.S. Congress ever discuss the possibility of sweeping changes to our trade policies.\nSo we will continue to lose thousands of factories, we will continue to lose millions of jobs and we will continue to see the biggest transfer of wealth in the history of the world accelerate.\nSo do any of you think that I am wrong about this? Please feel free to leave a comment with your opinion below\u2026.\nThe Trade Deficit Nightmare\nWhen they hear the word deficit, most Americans immediately think of the U.S. government budget deficit which is rapidly spiralling out of control. But that is not the only deficit which is ripping the U.S. economy to shreds. In fact, many economists commonly speak of the \u201ctwin deficits\u201d that are destroying the U.S. financial system. So what is the \u201cother deficit\u201d that they are referring to? It is the trade deficit. Every single month, we buy much more stuff from the rest of the world than they buy from us. That means that every single month there is a massive outflow of wealth from the United States. Every single day, America becomes just a little bit poorer as Americans continue to run out and fill up their shopping carts with cheap plastic crap from China and dozens of other emerging economies. Not that trade is a bad thing. Trade can actually be a very good thing. But the gigantic trade imbalances that the United States has been running for years are absolutely bleeding us dry. Unfortunately, our politicians have just stood idly by as each month we continue to transfer massive amounts of wealth out of the United States.\nThe U.S. Commerce Department recently announced that the U.S. trade deficit increased by 18.8 percent in June to $49.9 billion. Most analysts had expected the figure to be somewhere around 41 to 43 billion dollars.\nIn the month of June, imports rose to approximately $200 billion while exports fell to about $150 billion.\nSo can we afford to have a net outflow of 50 billion dollars each and every month?\nWe had so much wealth as a nation that we could afford to do this for a while, but the reality is that if this keeps up the rest of the world will eventually drain us dry.\nBut very few Americans talk about the trade deficit.\nNumber one, it is because our education system has become so dumbed down that most Americans (especially among the younger generations) do not even know what the trade deficit is.\nNumber two, most Americans are so obsessed with frivolous things such as American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, Lady Gaga and their favorite sports teams that they couldn\u2019t care less about thinking about real issues.\nBut they should be thinking about foreign trade, because it is literally destroying the nation.\nWhat we have done is we have allowed the monolithic predator corporations that dominate our economy to slowly but surely move their operations to countries such as China and India where labor costs less than a tenth of what it does here. In the process, executives at those predator corporations are earning huge \u201cperformance bonuses\u201d while millions of hard working middle class Americans are losing their jobs.\nIt is time to wake up. Have you ever wondered why it is so hard to find a decent job out there right now? Well, there is a good reason. The giant predator corporations have decided that they don\u2019t really need us anymore.\nOnce upon a time, great American companies provided great American jobs for great American workers. We created the biggest middle class in the history of the world and great industrial cities like Detroit, Michigan were the envy of the world.\nBut have you been to Detroit lately?\nOne of the greatest cities in the United States has become a hellhole. The mayor says that nearly half the people there are out of work.\nDid the giant corporations who used to make stuff in Detroit stop making stuff?\nNo, they are still making lots of stuff.\nThey just aren\u2019t making their stuff in Detroit anymore.\nNow, the truth is that it is really easy to jump on Detroit. It is a city that has been mismanaged for decades. But Detroit is far from alone.\nAll throughout the \u201crust belt\u201d you can find other Detroits.\nAt this point many of you may be thinking that people living in places like that should just move.\nThat may be good advice, but the truth is that what has happened to Detroit is going to be happening everywhere. It is going to come to your own neighborhood soon enough. The giant predator corporations are going to continue to try to outsource and offshore every job they can.\nYour job may be next.\nPerhaps you should start learning about the trade deficit.\nPerhaps you should start asking your representatives about it.\nJust look at what all of this \u201cfree trade\u201d and \u201cglobalism\u201d did to our trade deficit between 1991 and 2005\u2026..\nAre you troubled by that chart?\nThe U.S. economy is bleeding and the top politicians from both political parties act as if they could really care less.\nWhat do you think is going to happen if tens of billions of dollars continue to pour out of the United States month after month after month?\nThe economic prosperity that we have all been enjoying is not guaranteed to last forever.\nThe system of world trade that has developed over the past few decades has provided us with gigantic mountains of cheap plastic crap, but it is not a good system for America or for middle class American workers.\nSomeday we will look back in horror at how incredibly stupid it was to ship our manufacturing base, our jobs and our prosperity to China.\nBut the American people have made their choices. They allowed the politicians to convince them that NAFTA, GATT and the WTO would be wonderful things for Americans.\nThey didn\u2019t listen to the warnings about what would ultimately happen to our jobs and our economy.\nThey didn\u2019t take the time to get educated about foreign trade and the exploding trade deficit.\nSo now we all get to pay the price.",

        "title": "10 Weird and Grotesque Archaeological Finds : THE HORROR MOVIES BLOG",
        "raw_content": "History is full of surprises, and archaeology allows us a rare glimpse into the past that often reveals more than any textbook ever could. Every discovery helps to dig up new information about the way the world was in the time of our ancestors. From vampires to giant man-crushing wombats, here are ten of the strangest archaeological finds.\n10. The Alien Skulls of Mexico\nTwenty-five human skulls were found in a mass grave in Mexico with long skulls making them look like aliens.\nMexican villagers were digging into the ground when they found a mass grave, filled with 25 ancient corpses. Around half of the bodies had freakishly long skulls. Although some people were quick to suggest that the bodies were those of aliens, researchers believe that the skulls were reshaped on purpose \u2013 while their owners were still alive.\nChildren in the Central American cultures of 1,000 years ago had their skulls forced into odd shapes from a young age. Their heads were bound with flat boards, which put enormous pressure on their skulls. The pressure forced the bone tissue to grow upwards rather than outwards \u2013 resulting in something that looks a lot like an alien.\n9. King Louis XVI\u2019s Blood (And His Grandfather\u2019s Head)\nThe blood of this murdered French king was found on a handkerchief proving that people took mementos from his execution place.\nThe remains of a handkerchief from the French Revolution is soaked with the blood of King Louis XVI, scientists have found. Legend has it that when the king was killed in 1792, people rushed forward and dipped their handkerchiefs in his blood \u2013 a story which seems to be true, now that the blood stains have been shown to be his.\nDNA testing didn\u2019t prove anything until the handkerchief was compared to a mummified head that probably belonged to King Henry IV, a direct ancestor of King Louis. Both of the finds \u2013 the head and the blood \u2013 were verified at exactly the same time.\nThis ancient ice-corpse was discovered with perfectly preserved blood \u2013 the oldest in the world. In 1991, a group of hikers were trekking in the mountains of Austria when they came across an awful sight: a frozen body was buried in the ice at their feet. That body belonged to a 5,300 year old man, later dubbed \u201cOtzi the Iceman\u201d. By studying the body, scientists have been able to discover some surprisingly specific facts. When he was alive, he had parasites in his intestines, was lactose intolerant, and had been sick three times in the past six months. But his death seems to have been caused by an arrow wound to his back \u2013 leading some scientists to believe that he was chased across the mountains.\nThe most important find was not the body itself, but what was still inside it: Otzi\u2019s blood cells were so well preserved that they look almost exactly like modern day blood samples. This makes it the world\u2019s oldest blood \u2013 which teaches us a lot about the lifestyle of ancient man.\n7. Mega-Wombat Graveyard\nGiant wombats were found in an Australian mass grave with 20-foot long poisonous lizards and mega-kangaroos.\nWombats may well be some of the cutest animals on earth \u2013 but their ancestors were the stuff nightmares are made of. These ancient wombats were something like a cross between a rhinoceros and a grizzly bear. In 2012, Australian scientists found a mass grave filled with about 50 \u201cmega-wombat\u201d skeletons. They were about the size of a Volvo, could weigh as much as 3.1 tons (2.8 metric tons), and had a pouch large enough to hold \u201ca small human.\u201d\nThe mega-wombat graveyard also held bones from 20-foot-long poisonous lizards and 14-foot-tall \u201csuper kangaroos\u201d \u2013 proving that Australia could kill you even in ancient times.\n6. 2,600-Year-Old Human Brain\nA perfectly preserved Iron Age brain was found pickled inside its skull.\nAn amazingly intact human brain was found inside a skull in Northern England. By sheer accident, the brain was naturally preserved \u2013 like pickled onions \u2013 in a way that stopped bacteria from breaking down the soft tissue.\nThe brain is thought to date from the Iron Age. The head was found without its body \u2013 leading some to believe that the head was removed during a ritual ceremony and buried apart from the body.\n5. Neanderthal Cannibals\n49,000 year old human bones with human gnaw marks on them were uncovered in Spain.\nA small group of Neanderthal skeletons have been found at a dig site in Spain. The bones, which are about 49,000 years old, all have human teeth marks on them \u2013 which points pretty conclusively to cannibalism. It seems from the evidence that the group of twelve \u2013 six adults, three teenagers, two children, and an infant \u2013 were a family that was attacked and eaten by another party of Neanderthals, after taking shelter in a cave.\n4. The Sacrifices of the Peruvian Temple\nBodies laid out in patterns give proof for mass human sacrifices in Peru.\nIn 2012, a tomb was found in Peru that held dozens of human skeletons. The adult skeletons were arranged inside a circle of baby skeletons. The tomb was found at the temple of Pachacamac, a major dig site which can claim nearly twenty pyramids and another cemetery to its name.\nThe temple is thought to be the place where sacrifices were carried out by the Ychsma, an ancient people who pre-dated the Incas. It seems that the bodies found inside the ring of babies belonged to pilgrims, who traveled to this tribe in search of some sort of cure \u2013 but a cure for what, nobody knows.\n3. Vampire Corpses\nBodies of the undead are regularly found in Bulgaria with iron stakes still embedded in their hearts.\nBulgarians in the 14th century would stab the hearts of anybody who was thought to be a vampire. It seems that the Middle Ages were even more crazy about vampires than we are today. Over 100 vampire graves have been found scattered across the country \u2013 all of them with an iron stake driven through the chest of the body.\nA vampire corpse, recently found near the coast of the Black Sea, appears to have been stabbed many times and then buried with the stake still protruding from its chest. Grave sites like this are found every few years, and nobody knows just how many people in the region were put to death as vampires.\n2. Amenhotep\u2019s Book of the Dead\nMissing pages of this famous book are still showing up in unexpected places.\nThe Egyptian Book of the Dead is one of the most famous books containing spells to be used in the afterlife. Rather than being a single book, it is more of a concept. The spells were usually written on the walls and on the bodies of the deceased. Upper class Egyptians were also given a papyrus scroll with the spells written on it, which would allow them to journey through the afterlife.\nResearchers have spent years trying to track down all the pieces of the Book of the Dead given to Amenhotep, a powerful Egyptian official from around 1400 BC. Nearly 100 fragments of this scroll were recently found \u2013 not in a sandy tomb, but in the basement of the Queensland Museum, where they were donated almost 100 years ago.\n1. The Headless Vikings\nVikings corpses prove that they were so tough they refused to be killed from behind and preferred to face their executioner.\nIn 2009, a Viking mass grave was found by a road crew in Dorset, UK. The bodies \u2013 51 in total \u2013 had been brutally executed and then left with their heads in one pile and the rest of their bones in another pile. Researchers think that this might be the grave of the feared Jomsvikings, a mercenary group that carried out a series of violent raids along the coast of England around 1000 AD.\nFrom looking at the bones, it seems that the victims\u2019 heads were cut off from the front. As proud Vikings, the captives refused to turn their backs to their killers.\nBizarre Mars photos: Signs of life, or signs the Internet has lost its mind?\nCreepy Black Figure Appears In The Sky Over El Paso, Texas\nFarmers Found Something Bizarre In a Trap In Mexico That Mystified The Whole World\nTags: Alien, alien skulls, aliens, bizarre, Headless Vikings, King Louis XVI\u2019s Blood, Otzi, paranormal, The Alien Skulls of Mexico, Vampire, Vampire Corpses, weird, Wombat Graveyard",

Me too! But obviously, a fun trip is a well-prepared one. From the do\u2019s and dont\u2019s, where to stay, and what to visit, these tips are all based on my personal experience during my trip to Amsterdam.\nBlown Away in Zaanse Schans\nPeople say you haven\u2019t visited Netherlands if you haven\u2019t see the actual windmill that is the icon of this country. So as I happened to visit Amsterdam, I set aside some time to visit the well-preserved historic windmill in Zaanse Schans, a quiet yet lovely neighborhood in Zaandam, Netherlands. And let me tell you, the\u2026\nVisiting the Famous Cheese Factory in Volendam\nIf you happen to be in Netherlands and are a sucker for cheese then this place is a must visit! Located in the charming fisherman village of Volendam, this place is heaven for cheese lovers. Hell, even a non-cheese lover like I am would still have a good time here.\nAmsterdam in Less Than 48 Hours\nAmsterdam is the first European city that I traveled to during my time abroad and also the first city on my first Eurotrip list. It\u2019s just as charming as what people say it is. I went there in the middle of the winter in December and although it was not snowing, it was still magical.\u2026\nLong Haul Flight Skincare Routine\nTraveling to a new place is always an exciting experience, especially when the destination is far away.

        "raw_content": "One hard family loss for me was the death of my aunt several years ago. She and I had become very close, especially after her husband's death when I spent a couple of weeks with her helping her get through the funeral and start the laborious task of filing for his life insurance, pension, etc.\nShe was also the first member of my family to figure out that I was a lesbian and to tell me she didn't think there was anything wrong with that.\nBefore she died, she became confused and forgetful and no longer recognized me, which hurt a lot. In many ways her death was a relief, but I still miss her the way she was.\nI think that this must be one of the more difficult deaths to deal with. When someone you love dearly is indifferent to you, it is very hard to cope with. Just know that she is much better off now. I know that her accepting that you were a lesbian probably brought you that much closer to her since there are so many people who cannot accept that. Just know that she is well now and take comfort in that.\nSend a private message to cassiem0221\nFind all posts by cassiem0221\nI know you're right that it's good she's not suffering any more, but I still miss her. We both adored cats, and every time I see an especially cute cat figurine or a cat calendar (our standard yearly Christmas gift to each other), I think of her, not in a bad way, but kind of wistfully, wishing she were still here to laugh over the antics of my new kitten or the stubbornness of my old cat.\nthis must hjave been a very hard time for you but the one thing you have to hold onto is your memories of her when she was well and not what she was like towards the end\nSend a private message to janus76\nFind all posts by janus76\nHaving a loved one not recognize you is something I haven't really thought about. It must be very difficult.\nI know someone who really doesn't know how long his mother hadn't been recognizing him, because when he'd come to visit her, she'd say non-committal things like \"Look who's here\" without using names.\nOriginally Posted by Calypso\nI know what you are feeling in that part... My grandmother will have died 1 year ago on September 2nd and I still go to the store and see something with angels etc and think... Oh I should buy this for Granny... but she isn't her eto buy for. I miss her dearly.\nI always have a hard time around the holidays. Gift giving is a big tradition in my family, and I always see things I would love to buy for loved ones who have gone before. A couple of times, I've almost cried right in the middle of the Mall. So much for holiday spirit, eh?\nThanks for sharing this Calypso. It sounds like your aunt was a down to earth lady that understood what family and unconditional love are all about. It still hurts and makes you cry, but in time you'll be able to smile and laugh through the tears.",

        "raw_content": "CRAIG BARROWMAN\nI was born in 1969 in Port Elizabeth, 800km east of Cape Town on the Indian Ocean, and have been a tourist guide in Cape Town since 2000.\nMost of my happy childhood was spent in the Eastern Cape interior, the heartland of the Xhosa people, close to the Transkei Wild Coast, where I learned to love the beautiful land and people around me. I returned to Port Elizabeth to study social science \u2013 and what an exciting time to be a student! The heady sense of change was in the air, and excitement around the events leading up to the reforms, including the release of Nelson Mandela in 1990, shaped many choices I made.\nI opted to work in the non-profit sector, and became a fieldworker in a human rights and development NGO based in Port Elizabeth, serving poor rural communities in the region. Besides the wonderful people I met and worked with, traveling around the countryside was a highlight too.\nSome of the greatest days of my life were spent as a volunteer peace monitor during South Africa\u2019s landmark first democratic elections in 1994, when I was deployed in the streets of a sprawling township between the long snaking lines of voters. A remarkable day indeed!\nBut never having left South Africa, I had itchy feet and it was time for new adventures. A short backpacking trip in Europe grew into a three year experience of work and travel which took me to various parts of Europe and North America. I worked in various jobs but again became drawn towards those serving people such as care work and working on a special needs summer camp in the USA. I saved every bit of hard earned cash to travel, usually on a shoestring budget.\nMy time away reinforced what I already knew \u2013 that I came from one of the most beautiful countries on earth, and one that the world would soon want to see! This inspired me to get involved in the rapidly growing tourism industry on my return.\nThe first job I got back in South Africa was managing a lodge and outdoor activity centre for independent travelers in the small country town of Swellendam, 2\u00bd hours east of Cape Town. I loved the place and the work, and was proud to win a Rotary award for outstanding service to the town\u2019s tourism industry. My favourite part of the job was taking guests on day trips to nearby places of interest. I quickly realized that this was something that could develop into a career. After a happy two years, Cape Town beckoned!\nThe turn of the millennium took me to the city. After my first tourist guiding course, I was thrilled to be offered work at one of Cape Town\u2019s largest tour companies. In my five years there I developed a niche doing private tours for small groups, with a focus on nature.\nThe next step was to become more independent and to expand my skills. Working in a freelance capacity, it\u2019s always useful to learn skills in other fields. Being a lover of language, I decided to take a break from touring and do a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate course in Cape Town. This led to a few months of teaching English to language students from abroad, as well as organizing outings in and around the city for them. Which in turn led to a year of teaching English in high school \u2026 in Japan! This total cultural immersion turned out to be one of the most exciting adventures of my life. It gave me the rare chance to take a step back, consider life and the world anew from a fresh perspective \u2026 and travel some more!\nI was delighted to return to Cape Town with recharged batteries in late 2006 and get straight back into guiding as planned, this time on a freelance basis. Since then, most of my work has been for Abercrombie & Kent, with small groups of one to six guests. Many of them come to Africa primarily to enjoy the safari experience, and they are often bowled over by the surprises of our cosmopolitan city and its spectacular environs, in addition to the thrill of seeing the Big 5 that drew them to Africa in the first place.\nBesides showing visitors the city and country that I love, I find that guiding keeps me connected with the world and all the places I\u2019ve traveled to myself, in Europe, North and South America, east and south-east Asia, Australia, and of course other parts of our own beloved Africa.\nWhen I take a break from guiding, I team up with friends, pack the car, and go on big road trips to explore the far flung parts of the land my work doesn\u2019t normally take me to, in South and Southern Africa. Kenya and Tanzania are next on my dream list!\nMany of my leisure pursuits involve nature and the outdoors. I particularly love mountains, and I often go hiking on the mountains around Cape Town and its hinterland, and from time to time join friends on multi-day overnight hiking experiences in places as far afield as the Eastern Cape and Namibia.\nI also enjoy local music and theatre, and am building up a network of art venues to visit with guests. I love dining out, and find that trying to keep abreast of Cape Town\u2019s burgeoning restaurant scene is a very rewarding challenge!\nI\u2019m presently qualified as a guide in the Western, Northern and Eastern Cape provinces, and am in the process of expanding to Gauteng, the North West and Mpumalanga provinces. I\u2019m an active member of the Cape Tourist Guides Association.\nSpecialties: Nature, flowers, walking and hiking, local music and theatre, art and sculpture, senior and disabled guests, winelands.",

Brown: Managing your assets\nFor prospective clients they also have to provide them with an estimate of the costs and charges in the first year and then in subsequent years, if these are different, before signing a client up.\nFrom 1 October 2018 the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) will supersede the Insurance Mediation Directive (IMD) and will introduce similar rules regarding the disclosure of costs and charges as those introduced by MIFID II as well as many other rules, which will substantially improve investor protection.\nCosts and charges have a major bearing on the returns you are likely to achieve and come in many guises, but basically fall into three broad categories.\nWrapper charges; for example the cost of a bond or a QROPS, these typically have an upfront charge and annual charge and quite often have onerous early exit penalties.\nAdviser charges; these (as above) usually include an upfront charge and an annual charge.\nCharges for managing your assets; these can be multi-layered in that there could be a management charge applied by your fund manager, charges on the underlying investments, custody charges, local taxes and transaction costs. The latter are often the most pervasive and currently can be hidden. There may be no actual transaction charge, but just as in foreign exchange there is an implicit cost as there is a bid/offer spread on the underlying investments.\nRC Brown operates in Portugal under MIFID II. If you want to see the total cost of managing your investments, we have a fees calculator on our website www.rcbim.pt, where you can see a detailed breakdown of the costs under various scenarios.\nDepending on size and composition, it varies from just under 1.5% to just over 2.0% p.a., more importantly we levy no upfront fees or exit penalties.\nIf you would like to discuss this or any other matter in more detail, please contact us directly or visit us at Stand57 at BLIP exhibition over the weekend of 13 and 14 October.\nFor further information, Tel: (+351) 707502535, email: enquiries@rcbim.pt or visit: www.rcbim.pt",

        "raw_content": "Quit Texts Will Support Smokers Through Their First Month Quitting\nQuit Texts is a new free SMS based text messaging program from Quit Co. that is designed to help smokers prepare to quit, with lots of tips, encouragement, and advice on how to set up new healthy habits.\nGREENWICH, CT., Monday, November 30, 2015 \u2013 Having a support buddy has been shown to greatly improve the chances of successfully quitting smoking. However, not everyone can have a buddy with them all the time. That is why Quit Co. is now providing a free SMS text message support program called Quit Texts, which provides daily support to help get smokers through the 1st month of quitting, and be set up for success.\nEven with a good plan and willpower, quitting smoking can be difficult. The daily text message reminders from Quit Texts arrive every morning at 7:00 am for 1 week prior to quitting, and for 30 days after quitting. The messages begin with advice on how to prepare to quit smoking. There are also informative texts intended to teach the basics of behavioral modification therapy. After the Quit Date, the text messages are encouraging, with advice on how to get through each day, messages about health improvements for positive reinforcement, and most importantly reminders that 1 cigarette does not mean failure!\nResearchers at the University of North Texas looked at 13 different studies conducted on SMS text message based intervention smoking cessation services, and found an increase in smoking cessation success rates by 36%. These results were considered significant, especially as a viable tobacco dependence treatment option, because of the ease and low cost with which such a program can be administered to a large group of people.\nThe purpose of the program is a help set up those quitting smoking with the new routines they need to be successful. Living smoke free is all about adopting new habits to replace cigarettes. This is called the Substitution Strategy for Quitting Smoking, and the reason it is important is that smokers typically slip back into smoking after the first few weeks when physical addiction to nicotine is over. This highlights the need to address the deeply ingrained behavioral dependency of tobacco smoking.\nThere are links to sign up for Quit Texts on the TheQuitCo.com website. Also, any page in the smoking cessation News & Info blog has a link in the sidebar. And there is a dedicated Quit Texts page where anyone can go direct to sign up. It is important to sign up exactly 1 week before the Quit Date.",

        "raw_content": "February 13, 2019 Ajay Ghosh Community News, Health, India 0\n(Chicago, IL. February 12, 2019) \u201cAmong the many other initiatives, a major theme and focus of the 13th annual Global Healthcare Summit to be held from July 21st -24th 2019, Hyderabad, India, organized by the American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (AAPI) in collaboration with Global Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (GAPIO), will be the much needed CPR Training,\u201d declared Dr. Suresh Reddy, President-Elect and Chairman of the GHS 2019.\nDr. Reddy will assume charge as the new president during AAPI\u2019s annual convention in Atlanta over the July 4th weekend. He says that the GHS 2019 will focus on preventive health, targeting rural health, women\u2019s health, and provide special CPR training, that will equip First Responders to help save lives.\n\u201cIt is the passion, willingness and staunch loyalty towards the former motherland that draws several AAPI members to join this effort & by working with experts in India, AAPI is able to bring solutions that are India centric & takes us closer to our lofty vision of making quality healthcare affordable & accessible to all people of India,\u201d says Dr. Naresh Parikh, President of AAPI.\nWith more than 1.2 billion people, India is estimated to account for 60 per cent of patients with heart diseases. According to the World Health Organization, heart related disorders kills almost 20 million people annually, and they are exceptionally prevalent in the sub-Indian continent. Half of all heart attacks in this population occur under the age of 50 years and 25 percent under the age of 40. It is estimated that India is estimated to have over 1.6 million strokes per year, resulting in disabilities on one third of them. Although there is some level of awareness regarding smoking, dietary habits and diabetes, somehow there is no massive intervention on a national level either by the government or by the physicians.\nWhile coronary artery disease (CAD) tends to occur earlier in life and in a higher percentage of the population in Asian Indians than in other ethnic groups, it has been found that American Southeast Asian Indians typically develop a heart attack 10 years earlier than other populations. Studies also have found that heart disease among Indians is more severe, diffuse, and more likely to be multi-vessel compared to whites despite their younger age, smoking less, and lower rates of hypertension.\nIndia has one of the highest accident rates leading to trauma and head injury. AAPI, in collaboration with leading healthcare institutions in India and the Indian Ministry of Health has embarked on a long-term project to create awareness on the need to prevent, treat, and provide special care and rehab services to those involved in accidents.\n\u201cIn this context, AAPI\u2019s initiative to educate and prevent deaths by accidents and chronic heart problems is very significant,\u201d says Dr. Sanku Rao Chief Advisor of the GHS 2019. To be presented by leading global healthcare leaders and professionals, the day-long Advanced Resuscitation (Post-Cardiac Arrest) Workshop in collaboration with The Chicago Medical Society will be held at the Nizam\u2019s Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India on July 22, 2019, Dr. Rao adds.\nDr. Dwarkanatha Reddy, Convener of says, \u201cAAPI has been in the forefront in addressing the accidental deaths, by collaborating with the American University of Antigua (AUA) College of Medicine, and the American Heart Association, with workshop/training (EMTC) trainings to hundreds of first responders, including police, para-medical professional at every GHS in recent years.\u201d\nThe trainings are aimed at decreasing the number of deaths, especially from road accidents by enabling the first responders to provide life support to victims of accidents. The training, which includes CPI and other medical services are being provided by professional trainers from the US and is being offered to personnel from Police, Traffic Police, and other healthcare professionals from the state.\nDr. Vemuri S. Murthy, MD, MS, FAHA, FICS, Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Illinois, Chicago, Illinois, USA, and a team including, Dr. Radhika Chimata, Dr. Srinivas Ramaka, Dr. Anupama Gotimukula, and Dr. K. Manohar will be the lead speakers.\nDr. Anupama Gotimukula, MD, is a Faculty Co-Chair, Pediatric Anesthesiologist, is based in San Antonio, Texas. She currently serves as the Secretary, AAPI & Member, AAPI Global CPR Ad-Hoc Committee. Dr. Ashima Sharma, MD, DA, is the Coordinator at Nizam\u2019s Institute of Medical Sciences, and serves as the Head, Department of Emergency Medicine, Nizam\u2019sInstitute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.\nDr. Murthy says, \u201cThe AAPI Resuscitation Workshop 2019 is designed, incorporating the basic and advanced Resuscitation Science (Post-Cardiac Arrest) information including global 2018 updates. The workshop focuses on Indian resuscitation projects to enhance outcomes after sudden cardiac arrests.\u201d\nAccording to Dr. Anupama Gotimukula, the workshop will be an effective way \u201cTo share information about recent global advances in Adult and Pediatric Resuscitation; and, to share information about the role of simulation technology in resuscitation training (includes a simulation session).\u201d\nThe workshop is eligible for AMA PRA Cat. 1 CME Credit for 4.5 Hours (for US Physician Registrants): To be approved by the Chicago Medical Society, Chicago, Illinois, USA. All program registrants will receive Resuscitation Workshop Attendance Certificates from AAPI. Registration is open on a first-come first-served basis. No admittance to the workshop without registration. No on-site registration.\nIn addition to Nizam\u2019s Institute of Medical Sciences, there will be day long concurrent CPR Trainings at the Bharatiya Vidhya Bhavan and Indian Police Academy from 8 am to 1 pm on July 22nd.\nDr. Sudhakar Jonnalagadda, Vice President of AAPI, says, \u201cThe growing clout of the physicians of Indian origin in the United States is seen everywhere as several physicians of Indian origin hold critical positions in the healthcare, academic, research and administrative positions across the nation. Indian doctors have carved a comfortable niche in the American medical community and have earned a name for themselves with their hard work, dedication, compassion, and amazing skills and talents.\u201d\nRepresenting the voice of the over 100,000 physicians of Indian origin, AAPI, the largest ethnic organization of physicians, has been strategically engaged in working with the Union and State Governments of India for the past ten years and has collaborated with more than 35 professional medical associations, pharmaceutical and medical device companies to address the health care challenges of a rapidly developing India.\n\u201cWith the changing trends and statistics in healthcare, both in India and US, we are refocusing our mission and vision, AAPI would like to make a positive meaningful impact on the healthcare delivery system both in the US and in India,\u201d Dr. Suresh Reddy said.

        "raw_content": "Written and directed by Jacques Demy, La baie des anges (Bay of Angels) is the story of a bank clerk who is introduced to the world of gambling as he falls for a woman with a gambling addiction. The film is an exploration into a man falling in love with a woman where he gets sucked into a world where the risks are very high. Starring Jeanne Moreau, Claude Mann, Paul Guers, Henri Nassiet, and Nicole Chollet. La baie des anges is a sensational film from Jacques Demy.\nThe film is a simple story of a bank clerk whose friend introduces him to the world of gambling where he gets sucked in as he travels to Nice to gamble some more where he meets a beautiful yet troubled woman with a gambling problem. There, the two endure the highs and lows of gambling where they win big and then lose big as it creates something that plays into whether or not is risking money and livelihood worth it all for a bunch of money? Jacques Demy\u2019s script does play to a traditional structure yet it is largely told from the perspective of Jean (Claude Mann) who is just a bank clerk that is just trying to have a good life and help his father.\nYet, he gets sucked into this high-octane world of winning and losing money but manages to figure out the game of roulette and wins big through his wit. Upon meeting Jackie (Jeanne Moreau) in Nice, he falls in love and becomes consumed by winning big but also lose big as he would also know more about Jackie and her troubled addiction as she is someone that clearly has a problem. While she tries to act cool about it and pretend that it doesn\u2019t affect her, Jean definitely knows she has a problem as he tries to make sense while he begins to realize the dangers of gambling.\nDemy\u2019s direction has an air of style in terms of the camera movements and compositions yet does maintain a sense of simplicity in its visuals and approach to storytelling. Notably as Demy creates something where the audience becomes invested into Jean\u2019s discovery into the world of gambling where they too will probably guess a number and wonder if he\u2019ll win or lose. Demy would create these intricate medium and wide shots to play into the world of casinos as he uses a lot of tracking shots to showcase how intimate and vast these small casinos are. The close-ups would add to the drama as it relates to Jackie\u2019s own anguish and the sense of fear that looms over Jean when both of them have their backs against the wall when it comes to losing.\nEspecially as their trip to Monte Carlo becomes a disastrous one where it would add to the drama as well as Jean\u2019s own revelation about gambling as it relates to what his father told him earlier in the film. It would all play into not just Jean trying to convince Jackie that she\u2019s risking so much more but also the fact that there is a way out. Not just on the roulette table but in life itself. Overall, Demy creates a very compelling yet evocative film about a young man who encounters the world of gambling and a woman with a gambling problem.\nCinematographer Jean Rabier does excellent work with the film\u2018s black-and-white photography from its usage of lights for scenes set at night in its interior and exterior settings to the more naturalistic look into the streets of Nice where it looks more low-key and real. Editor Anne-Marie Cotret does fantastic work with the editing with its usage of jump-cuts to play into some of the excitement that occurs in winning as well as other stylish cuts to play into the drama. Set decorator/costume designer Bernard Evein, with costumer Pierre Cardin, does amazing work with the look of the casino halls and hotel rooms as well as the stylish clothes that Jackie and Jean wear.\nThe sound work of Andre Hervee is terrific for the naturalistic atmosphere that is created inside the casinos and in some of the locations including the beaches in Nice and Monte Carlo. The film\u2019s music by Michel Legrand is phenomenal as it is a mixture of jazz and classical where it features a few playful pieces but also a piano flourish theme that plays into moments of good luck for Jean and Jackie along with a somber theme based on string instruments as it\u2019s one of the film\u2019s highlights.\nThe film\u2019s superb cast includes a few notable small roles from Nicole Chollet as a customer of Jean\u2019s father, Andres Certes as the bank director, Conchita Parodi as the hotel manager in Nice, Henri Nassiet as Jean\u2019s father, and Paul Guers as Jean\u2019s colleague Caron who would introduce him to the world of gambling. Claude Mann is brilliant as Jean as a young bank clerk who is seduced into the world of gambling as he tries to figure out how to play well while being cautious into every move he makes. Finally, there\u2019s Jeanne Moreau in a remarkable performance as Jackie as this woman with platinum blonde hair who is the epitome of beauty but is a complete mess inside when things don\u2019t go her way as she is upbeat when she wins but falls apart when she loses as it\u2019s a performance filled with anguish and charm.\nLa baie des anges is an exquisitely rich and exhilarating film from Jacques Demy. Featuring great performances from Jeanne Moreau and Claude Mann as well as an amazing score by Michel Legrand. The film isn\u2019t just a unique study into the world of gambling and addiction but also how a man become seduced into a world that is new as he falls for a woman whose descent would force him to take action. In the end, La baie des anges is an incredible film from Jacques Demy.\nJacques Demy Films: (Lola (1961 film)) - The Umbrellas of Cherbourg - The Young Girls of Rochefort - Model Shop - Donkey Skin - (The Pied Piper (1972 film)) - A Slightly Pregnant Man - (Lady Oscar) - (La Naissance du Jour) - Une chambre en ville - (Parking (1985 film)) - (Three Places for the 26th) - Turning Table)\nLabels: claude mann, jacques demy, jeanne moreau, paul guers\nOne day a man will fall in love with me and will bank roll my crazy existence.\nActually, I think that's already happened. I shouldn't complain.\nThank you. I wish things were like the cinema so that our lives can be better.",

Lopez said that he went into his career because he wanted to help people by being supportive, and chose to work at a college because it is easier to correct mistakes at a young age.\n\u201cAlcohol really impacts the majority of what people do,\u201d said Lopez, 39. \u201cIt is responsible for 90 percent of things, including sexual assault.\u201d One incident Lopez mentioned was responding to a car crash on College and Woodlawn Avenues, where a 19-year-old female student had rolled her car onto the roof, and later tested .191 for her blood alcohol content. The legal limit for someone under 21 is .02, so she was nearly 10 times the legal limit at the time of the crash.\nIn his free time, Lopez likes to watch shows like \u201cThe Walking Dead\u201d and \u201cGame of Thrones.\u201d In the future, he would like to be Wittenberg\u2019s Chief of Police, for which he recently submitted an application. Lopez said that if he was not an officer, he would still do investigative work.\n\u201cWe\u2019re here to serve the students\u2014that\u2019s the whole purpose of a community.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Guest post by Jacob Laukaitis\nHome \u00bb Destinations \u00bb Guest Blogs \u00bb Explore This Ancient Shrine First Person\nJacob is a young one and to be experiencing the world so young is a grand thing. I really love his photos on this shrine and if an article like this inspires me to go then I want to share it with you all. Japan is at the top of my list.\nI am Jacob Laukaitis, a 21 year old digital nomad, who\u2019s already been to more than 30 countries in the last 2 years. I love making videos of places I visit so here\u2019s one from my last trip to the Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, Japan.\nThe shrine predates 794 when the capital of Japan moved to Kyoto. It sprawls all around the mountain and there are hundreds of small shrines, thousands of sculptures and more than 10,000 Torii gates. Every single one of those gates has been donated by an individual or an organization or a company from anywhere around the world. Their names are inscribed on the gates in Japanese characters. The prices start from 400,000 yen and go up to a million and even more!\nIn order to reach the shrine you need to trek up-hill for quite some time until you reach the wooden forest of the sacred Mount Inari which stands at 233 meters above sea level. Many people do not trek all the way to the top, because even though it's not a very tough physical challenge, it's still quite a stretch, especially for older people and kids. If you, however, decide to climb all the way up don\u2018t be suprised to find a lo In the beginning there are way too many people for it to be enjoyable, but the higher up you go, the more relaxing and interesting it gets.\nSince the shrine has been there for ages it seems as a natural part of the mountain and surroundings, much more than the shopping malls, hotels or stations of Kyoto. It seems like it's been around forever and it's as much a part of the mountain as its trees and bushes.\nThis was my 2nd time visiting Fushimi Inari shrine. The first was exactly a year ago when I spent a month traveling around Japan. I remember that during my first time I was so excited to be able to explore the shrine and frankly couldn't get enough of it. So this time one of the main reasons I decided to come to Kyoto was to be able to walk around the shrine again.\nOne odd thing I noticed while on my way up was that there were absolutely no garbage bins anywhere in the mountain, so I had to keep everything in my backpack. There would be no problem with that, but the green tea flavored coffee that I had bought at the vending machine spilled in my backpack and I spent 15 minutes running around trying to find some napkins to clean it up.\nThe shrine was really breathtaking. I plan on returning there every time I\u2019m in Japan! I\u2019d probably spend a little bit more time there \u2013 I\u2019d find a place with no people whatsoever and sit there completely alone and enjoy the magnificent view. Maybe even read a book.\nJacob Laukaitis- If you like to see more of my endeavors, I post 2 videos a month. My trips and videos are partly covered Travel-Ticker.com thanks to whom I can fund my travels. You can follow my trips on my personal website JacobLaukaitis.com and on my Instagram profile where I post the best moments from my trips.",

        "title": "Troglodad: Dishonesty in Political Mailings?",
        "raw_content": "Dishonesty in Political Mailings?\nso I checked my mail yesterday and there was this flyer for Ron Grooms, a Republican candidate running for State Senator. I kind of remembered the name, but that was about it. Who was this guy.\nWell, according to \"Mayor\" Dale Orem, he's great. Oh, and \"Mayor\" Regina Overton thinks he's swell too. And \"Sheriff\" Randy Hubbard likes him as well. Oh, and so does \"joe Theobald\".\nFirst off, where's Joe's title? Who the hell is Joe Theobald? A Google search shows he once ran for State Rep- guess that's why he didn't get to use a title. He never earned one.\nAnd that's my gripe- Dale Orem was once a mayor, but not anymore. I know that, because I used to live in Jeffersonville, where he was the Mayor. But what about some of the other folks getting this flyer? Do they know he's a FORMER Mayor? And Ms. Overton- isn't she the FORMER Mayor? I therefore assume Mr. Hubbard is the FORMER Sheriff.\nIt really irritates me how people use titles like this. It'd be different if someone retired from a position- military folks do that all the time. But just because you served one or two terms in a public position, why do you get to use the title over and over? And if Ron Grooms wants us to believe he's a swell guy, why is he listing folks who didn't get re-elected? What is their standing that makes them such good references? Are we supposed to know about their political history? If so, why give them these titles?\nI think the whole thing is dishonest. Like actors pretending to be doctors in TV commercials, hawking medicines. Mr. Grooms, it's all fine and dandy that former-Mayor Dale Orem loves you, but what does the current Mayor think? I'd be much more interested in that. I mean, there are tons of former mayors in our region- anybody running for office is bound to be able to get an endorsement from one of them. You're coming across to me as being a little too desperate to get a qualified reference.\nAnd that doesn't inspire confidence.\nSo let's look at your website. Ah. You run a business and were on the Jeffersonville Town Council for 13 years. That's much more interesting to me than a bunch of former politicos endorsements. And I see that you're for: Full Day Kindergarten, building an East-end Bridge, Capping property taxes and increasing funds for schools. That would also be great information to put on your flyer.\nBut I have to take offense at your flier's slogan of \"The Leader Our Leaders Trust\" and \"He's the one our leaders can turn to for advice and leadership.\" That's not what your website says- it's all about your experience.\nSee, I don't think a State Senator is a leader of anything. It's a representative. I'm not voting for you to think for me- I'd be voting for you to represent me in the State Senate. To work for me and do what I would want you to do. Leader? Leader of what? A Conga-line during voting sessions?\nIf you can't get the job function straight (representation) than I surely don't want to vote for you. I think you're in this for you. So for the rest of your life you can go around introducing yourself as \"Senator\". I title that arrogant.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cWow, today was a great day! Today was an awesome day!\u201d\nDo you wish you had more days that ended with statements like this? We can. We just have to decide what will make it awesome, amazing, great in advance. Let me tell you what I mean.\nToo often we feel like life is getting in the way of all the things we want or need to get done. We end up feeling like all the other things that keep us busy are stealing away our amazing, our awesome, our incredible, great day! We end up feeling ridiculously busy all day but ask ourselves \u201cwhat did I really accomplish?\u201d I know I have felt that way and my wife has expressed the very same thing to me on more than one occasion. We\u2019ve bought into the idea that because we have external demands on our time and energy that aren\u2019t always in line with some unrealistic vision of \u201cthe perfect day\u201d that we give up on awesome before we\u2019ve even started our day. We start to judge our day by the things that matter least to us rather than focusing on things that matter most.\nMost moms and dads I know keep some form of a to-do list. There is a sense of satisfaction that comes from crossing something off the list but it never lasts. Once one thing is crossed off the list we\u2019re bombarded by the other thousand things on the list. We start to define our days, our lives and even ourselves by all the unimportant things that remain on the list. Now, I\u2019m not suggesting that there is no place for a good to-do list. I\u2019m only suggesting that there is a better way to tackle the list that emphasizes the most important things in our lives rather than the distractions.\nCreate a new kind of list\nI was recently introduced to a wonderful little book called \u201cThe Five Minute Journal\u201d by Alex Ikonn and UJ Ramdas www.fiveminutejournal.com. I call it a book because it gives an explanation of the purpose of the journal at the front of the book but the part that really changes your life is not what you get out of the book but what you put into it. The journal is a series of five questions to be completed in the morning and evening. It literally takes no more than 5 minutes to complete. The five minute journal is made up of the follow 5 elements\u2026\nGratitude: The journal invites us to write 3 things we are grateful for each morning. These could be big or small. The point is simply to give a moment to recognizing the things you are grateful for each and every day.\nDaily Goals: The second part is to write 3 things that will make today great. This is where the list comes in. It\u2019s important to take a second look at our never-ending to-do list and ask ourselves, \u201cWhich of these things is most important to me and which can I realistically do today?\u201d Identify that 1, 2, or 3 things that are most important and write them down and put the rest of the list away, out of sight and out of mind. Sometimes the most important things I identify are not necessarily from my to-do list but I know that if I am able to do that 1 thing, it will dramatically improve my day. One day not too long ago I had been so busy working on various business goals and other things that narrowed this area to just one thing I felt I needed that day to make it awesome. All I wrote was, \u201cFind time to play with the kids!\u201d You know, I accomplished it and the day was great!\nAffirmation: The third morning task is to write one self affirming statement. Years ago I read some research that suggested that affirmations along are not effective unless the affirmation is a statement that we truly buy into, one that we truly believe. So the task here is to write one statement that encourages and reminds you of your greatest strengths.\nWhat went great? This question is supposed to be completed at the close of our day and act as a review and acknowledgment of the awesomeness we created that day. It is a time to reflect and simply acknowledge the things that you followed through on and realize if it is bedtime and you look at your list of things that would make today great and see that you have not accomplished one of them, stop and do it right then. If you wrote that exercise would make today awesome, drop and do 20 push ups before you climb in bed. If you wanted to get a little reading in your novel in, read a couple pages before you drift off. It is never too late.\nWhat could have made it better? The last thing in the daily journal is an evaluation of what might have gone better. This isn\u2019t an opportunity to complain or degrade yourself but rather to identify possibilities for the future, for growth and for improvement on what is already great!\nThis 5 minute daily exercise has made a huge impact in my own life to narrow my focus to the things that matter most and recognize my own strengths and victories. It\u2019s allowed me to fulfill my new to-do list that is much smaller but much more meaningful than it used to be. It\u2019s allowed me to focus on what is most important for the day and let the other things take their appropriate back seat and given me the insight to insert some of the little things like undivided attention toward someone you really love into the middle of the humdrum monotony of everyday life. It has helped me to have more great days, more awesome days more amazing days! This isn\u2019t because life has changed all that much around me but because I have stopped long enough to take the time to truly live it!\nI hope you will give this 5 minute exercise a try and see how it can bring more amazing days into your life. Let us know what you find in your experience in the comments.\nMarlaine Cover\nWonderful suggestions for massive positive personal change! At P20 Talks 2014 in Dublin I chose the benefits of my own daily gratitude practice as my topic because it proved the most life-altering \u2013 indeed miraculous beyond anticipation in its rewards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od0VproVAfY\nWow, excellent talk Marlaine! Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have experienced some of the same wonderful experiences you have as I\u2019ve practiced the skill of gratitude. Thank you so much!",

        "raw_content": "Stop blaming Israel and wake up: The black flag of jihad is the REAL threat to the world\nEvents in the Middle East today have repercussions on the streets of Britain and Europe.\nJews are attacked here in Britain, they are blockaded into a synagogue in Paris and the chant \u2018Death to the Jews\u2019 is heard in Germany for the first time in 70 years.\nBut too few people seem to want to notice this or admit what it means. They think this is just about Israel, or just about Jewish people. It isn\u2019t. It is about all of us.\nThe decision last month by the Israeli government to respond to Hamas rocket-fire from Gaza is the response any government would choose if rockets were fired at its citizens. The Israeli government has the right - as does any government - to stop the bombarding of its people.\nHowever, in recent weeks it has become plain that much of the world expects a different response from Israel. They expect Israel not to fight for the safety, security and survival of their people, but to lie down in front of the Islamic extremist enemy.\nThe UK government has even - disgracefully - stopped selling some arms to Israel just when the country needs such weapons most. But in expecting Israel to behave differently from the rest of us our societies and governments reveal far more about our own state than the State of Israel.\nBecause the truth is that behind the demands for Israel to lie down in front of its enemies is a fatal unwillingness of our own to face the problem which is in our midst.\nThere are those who think that Israel is somehow the cause of the world\u2019s problems, or that in defending themselves from Islamic extremists Israel is somehow causing Islamic extremism. Nothing could be further from the truth.\nThe extremists of Hamas are the ideological bedfellows of the extremists of ISIS who are rampaging through Syria and Iraq, crucifying and beheading as they go.\nThe video of the apparent beheading of American journalist James Foley by an ISIS murderer with a British accent has shocked the world. ISIS or IS are the soul-mates of Boko Haram who kidnap and kill Christian villagers in the North of Nigeria and stole 300 schoolgirls earlier this year.\nThey also share the exact same ideology \u2013 if not yet the same means \u2013 as those people who were found in Birmingham earlier this year teaching British pupils to hate wider British society and cut themselves off from non-Muslims.\nBut it is this last part of the equation which many people seem so incapable of dealing with. They see the millions of Muslims who have come to our continent and see how many of them are radical. But it is a problem they fear they cannot deal with.\nThey believe that if Israel just gave up fighting and disappeared that the rest of us would be able to live in peace. They see the young Muslims who stormed into a supermarket in Birmingham last weekend, trashing the products and assaulting a British policeman and they think \u201cthis is caused by Israel.\u201d\nThey see young Parisian Muslims throw slabs of concrete at police and set fire to cars and they think \u201cIf only Israel weren\u2019t responding to Hamas rocket-fire.\u201d And they see Imams in Germany and Italy preach that all Jewish people must be killed and they pretend that it is not a problem for all of us.\nHow wrong they are. The problem of anti-Semitism, and Islamic anti-Semitism in particular today, is undoubtedly a problem for Jewish people. But it is only a problem for them first. It is a problem for all of us next.\nWhat is it that lies behind this terrible Hamas-driven rage against Israel? What lies behind the desire for Israel to disappear? Today the world is finding out.\nBecause behind the flags of Hamas and Hezbollah which have flown at anti-Israel demonstrations in recent weeks is another flag. The black flag of jihad \u2013 the black flag most recently being waved in Iraq and Syria by ISIS.\nLast month the black flag was flown from a car in London\u2019s Blackwall tunnel as East End Muslims blocked the traffic. At the entrance to a council estate in East London earlier this month there were anti-Israel banners and Palestinian flags. And then, on top of the lot, the black flag of jihad was flown. In Oxford Street last week Islamic extremists set up stall to try to recruit people to rally around the black flag of ISIS.\nThe black flag is not about Jewish people. Today in Iraq and Syria it is about Christians who ISIS is forcing to convert to Islam at gunpoint or face beheading. Many Christians are being killed by ISIS for refusing to renounce their faith. On some occasions Christians have tried to save their lives by \u201cconverting\u201d at gunpoint and ISIS have killed them anyway.\nAnd this is not only about Christians. It is also about other minority faiths in Islamist dominated countries. In Iraq it is also about the Yazidis, the Mandeans and other ancient beliefs which predate Islam.\nThe ambition of the jihadists \u2013 from al-Qaeda to Hamas, Hezbollah, Boko Haram and more \u2013 is to subjugate the entire world.\nIt is now the duty of all decent people \u2013 including decent Muslims \u2013 to turn on these barbarians and make it clear they will not win.\nRather than offer up beleaguered Israel we should send another message. That the extremists will not win in their desire to take over Israel anymore than they will win in their stated desire to raise the black flag of jihad over Rome, Washington, Downing Street and Buckingham Palace.\nIsrael is not the cause of the world\u2019s problems. It is simply on the front line of them.\nBut increasingly so are we all. And if we abandon Israel today then one day \u2013 too late \u2013 we will realise that in fact what we abandoned was ourselves.",

I like that their fonts are in different states of doneness. We can't do this ourselves because we're stuck in a situation where it's hard to update the end user's files. If we could just push updates like google can we'd totally release things in a more embryonic state and then allocate resources based on popularity. It drives me crazy how much we need to invest in a font before we have a clue if other if it will even get used.\nOf course, if you find a native Russian speaker, he or she will likely give you a very different take on things than a Serb.\nNot necessarily\u2026 At least Jovica Veljovi\u0107 and I seem to be on the same wavelength.\nBut also no reason they should be *less* conventional than the Latin in the same typeface. No? That is always the risk when doing design for an area you are less familiar with.\nBut also no reason they should be *less* conventional than the Latin in the same typeface. No?\nYes\u2026 Come to think of it, every design relying on a set of conventions\u2014common or unfamiliar\u2014is a balancing act, an attempt to slide between the Scylla of dogmatism, and Charybdis of nihilism.\nNo, not at all. I have no objections to challenging conventions, but that's not what I referred to. Instead, I was mentioning the westernization of non-western typefaces.\nIn principle, I have no issues with western-looking glyphs in any alphabet. But when we have more western type designers designing non-western typefaces than we have native users of those alphabets designing them, it might be worth considering the inadvertent influence western aesthetic biases and conventions might have.\nThis isn't one of my big concerns where I have strong feelings. I'm just suggesting that it's worth considering it as a potential pitfall when designing a typeface for an alphabet that one is not entirely familiar with.",

        "raw_content": "Bachelor of Arts (Hons.), History of Science and Technology and Religious Studies, 2014\nI want to be able to have conversations with the public and have that responsibility to make myself understood.\nIt is a long way from a class on the history of alchemy at King\u2019s to a stop at Yonge and Bloor on the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) subway. A long way geographically, but not so far in Haritha Popuri\u2019s fertile brain.\n\u201cI was thinking about travelling underground,\u201d on the TTC she says. \u201cAnd I was thinking back to my class in alchemy and what it meant to the (ancient Egyptians) whose god Atum-Ra every night would go through these very epic battles underground in order to emerge victorious in the sunrise.\u201d\nNo doubt there are days when a commute into downtown Toronto must feel like an epic battle, at the end climbing up the stairs to the light like the rising sun. And these thoughts got Haritha thinking about an art installation that would explore the commute through a very different lens.\nShe hasn\u2019t produced it yet; Haritha is in the middle of a master\u2019s program in theatre and performance at York University. But she has come up with a whimsical title for it: NeferTTC.\nHaritha has other ideas for art, performance and theatre, many of which have their roots in her time at King\u2019s. As part of her statement of intent when she applied to the master\u2019s program at York she described an installation in Chicago focusing on housing discrimination in that city.\n\u201c(It) would gather together the memories of the people who directly experience the effects of living in areas that are so completely overlooked and maligned through state policy,\u201d she says. \u201cPeople pass by without realizing what happened and what is happening that made these places the way they are today. They have a history. They don\u2019t just happen.\u201d\nIn part her ideas are a reflection of a political consciousness she says that began to develop through her work with the King\u2019s Students\u2019 Union. But they also are the result of an epiphany she had in her fourth year at King\u2019s. At that point she was thinking of a career in academia.\n\u201cBut I shied away from that because of the idea that I would only ever be able to talk to people who were already in the know, a very small group. And that kind of scared me. I want to be able to have conversations with the public and have that kind of responsibility to make myself understood.\u201d\nHaritha has huge respect for those professors who \u201centrusted\u201d her with ideas. There was no handholding she says. \u201cThey respected that you had the ability to rise up to that challenge and figure it out eventually.\u201d\nAnd that is what she wants to do through her art and theatre.\n\u201cWhat matters to me is that translation between the people who can see critically and break things down and the people who then do things about it. And that\u2019s what I want to do.\u201d\nConnect with Haritha Popuri",

As a result, an integrated approach to the treatment of acute leukemia appeared positive changes in the outcomes of treatment, thus revise their attitude to this disease: the absolutely fatal to potentially curable. Central venous catheterization - a necessary attribute of all stages of treatment. In case of accidental damage to an artery or vein puncture through-there is a high risk of hemorrhagic complications in the form of violations of plasma and platelet hemostasis. Depending on the location, the massiveness of damage and the competence of hemostatic mechanisms vascular injury may be accompanied by the appearance of a hematoma, external bleeding, hemothorax and gemomediastinum.\nPurpose. Determine the place of ultrasound navigation prophylactic prosthetic perverse components of hemostasis in the algorithm of venous catheterization in children with acute leukemia.\nMaterials and methods. A comparative analysis of hemorrhagic complications during central venous catheterization in 70 patients with acute leukemia who are treated at three major hospitals of the Volga region. The patients were divided into two groups. In the first group (40 children) catheterization was performed under ultrasound-guide, visualization of congenital variants of the location and size of vessels. In the second group (30 children) in addition to the application of ultrasonic navigation injected recombinant activated factor VII clotting - a highly hemostatic, which affects only the place of injury of the vascular wall without causing systemic activation of coagulation. The dynamics was carried ultrasound visualization to prevent hematoma and determine the level of hemoglobin and red blood cells.\nResults. Prior to the application of ultrasonic navigation with the introduction of recombinant activated factor VII clotting hemorrhagic complications during central venous catheterization in children with acute leukemia have reached 53%. The first group of hemorrhagic complications were registered in 3 patients (8%). In the second group were no complications.\nConclusion. Prophylactic use of recombinant activated factor VII clotting with ultrasound-guide minimizes the risk of hemorrhagic complications in catheterization of veins in children with acute leukemia.",

        "title": "UPC ..::|::.. Uganda Peoples Congress",
        "raw_content": "A short treatise on Uganda Peoples Congress (UPC)\nby Prof. Patrick Rubaihayo\nUganda Peoples Congress (UPC) has in a number of its documents always indicated that it is a social democratic Party. In order to appreciate this position, it is important to give a brief background of the history of Uganda Peoples Congress. The roots of Uganda Peoples Congress (UPC) can be traced to the Uganda National Congress (UNC), which was formed in 1952 under the leadership of Ignatius Musazi. The UNC emerged out of the Uganda African Farmers Union UAFU which was a movement of small holder farmers agitating for better prices of coffee and cotton. At the time, the main economic and political activities were concentrated in Buganda and naturally the leadership was mainly drawn from Buganda. Katwe was used as the headquarters of political activities of the day. With time, the Baganda lost out on the political leadership because they lacked the local base and support of Mengo establishment. This therefore, changed the ethnic and character of the leadership of the party. The Party was the first Ugandan Party to be established and to have branches country wide.\nIn terms of ideological outlook, UNC was generally socialist in orientation.\nThere were reasons why UNC adopted a socialistic stance. In order to be able to negotiate for better prices the UNC leadership sought their assistance of Fenner Brokway a Fabian Socialist and Labour Party Member of Parliament in Britain. Soon after its formation Fenner Brokway sent John Stonehouse, another socialist to help in organizing both the farmers' cooperatives movement association and UNC itself. Stonehouse was also able to arrange for Ignatius Musazi to take time off to go to Britain and be further exposed to socialist ideas. Because of the global politics at the time, both the Soviet Union and the western world had great interest in Africa. Most African freedom fighters looked to the Soviet Union for assistance basically because they were fighting colonialism which was perpetrated by the western world.\nIt was in that vain that UNC established an office in Cairo under John Kalekezi the father of the current Inspector General of Police Maj. Gen. Kale Kaihura as a communication and transit center. Since that time, Uganda has maintained close links with Egypt.\nThe fact that UNC adopted a socialistic orientation meant that it had an uphill task dealing with the colonial administration and religious establishments. The result of this was that the party was consumed by internal conflicts fermented by the colonial rulers. Very many small parties were encouraged to form like the Progressive Party under E. M. K Mulira, In January 1955. The Progressive Party never achieved much of a following.\nUnited Congress Party was formed by a splinter group in 1956 under Dr. E. Muwazi but was unable to capture the branches of UNC. UCP decided to take the line of Buganda Government to fight direct elections. In 1958, political leaders in the LEGCO particularly those from outside Buganda formed Uganda Peoples Union under the leadership of W.W. Rwetsiba. The Uganda Peoples Union represented the first major effort at political organization lead from outside Buganda. The Democratic Party which was formed in 1954, partly as a bulwark against communism and marginalization of Catholics in Buganda was later in 1956 led by Matayo Mugwanya who was a minister in Buganda government and in 1955 lost the Katikiro position by 41 votes to Kintu with 42 votes.\nMajor political developments took place in the country following the recommendations of the Wild Constitutional committee, appointed after the Partial General Election of 1958. The 1958 elections were partial because they did not cover the whole country. The colonial administration gave Districts and Kingdom Administrations an option whether to have direct or indirect representation in the reformed and expanded Legislative council.\nAnkole and Bugishu chose indirect elections while Buganda Kingdom refused to participate in the entire electoral process. The Kabaka's government claimed that the appointment of the Speaker to replace the Governor as the Presiding Officer in the LEGCO was a major departure from the Hancok arrangement of 1955, which enabled the Sekabaka Mutesa to return from deportation.\nKaramoja at the time was considered a Special District and was not invited to participate in these elections. The Governor continued to represent their interests of the district in LEGCO. The reason for these serious divergences of policies and actions were many, but the consequences were bound to be cumulative and grave.\nBetween 1956 and 1960 UNC was characterized by internal conflicts and splits which culminated into the emergence of A. M Obote as a compromise candidate to replace I. K Musazi. The change took place at the Annual Delegates Conference held in Mbale on the 12th January 1959. On 9th March 1960, UNC Obote faction merged with UPU to form UPC. In June 1960, a moderate group of Baganda launched the United National Party under the leadership of Apollo Kironde the former member of UNC and Y.K Lule a lecturer at Makerere University and Abu Mayanja as its publicity secretary. This signed the death warrant of UNC. UNP soon afterwards decided to merge with UPC.\nUganda Peoples Congress (UPC) immediate platform was:\nImmediate and complete Independence for Uganda\nRecognition and preservation of hereditary rulers.\nPromotion and maintenance of Unity.\nCreation of a welfare state, where citizens regardless of their class, tribe, colour or creed would have equal rights and the basic needs of modern life.\nDuring the fact finding process by the Wild constitutional committee, the British wanted to manipulate the formation of a Party acceptable to them to which they could eventually hand power. The British had realized that the demand for independence was unstoppable. They requested Yusufu Lule to organize the various parties of the time so that he can form one such strong party. The Democratic Party, refused to take the bait.\nMengo establishment was not comfortable with the political developments in the country and threatened to declare Unilateral Independence (UDI) in December 1960 as the country was preparing for political changes. It was the political maturity and vision of the leadership of UPC during the Lancaster House constitutional conference that helped to avert UDI and brought back Buganda into the fold. The efforts of UPC in convincing Buganda to remain part of Uganda was not motivated by greed for power, but rather by UPC`s commitment to negotiation dialogue leading to national unity and stability.\nThis was quickly followed by the need to define the relationship between the central government, the Kingdoms, Busoga Territory and other District Administrations in the rest of the country. A commission under the chairmanship of Lord Munster helped to define these relationships.\nThe colonial administration held a general election in March, 1961 for the legislative council (LEGCO) in spite of Buganda's refusal of the direct elections. The Mengo establishment boycotted these elections. These elections were won by DP whose base was Buganda and had fielded candidates in all the constituencies throughout the kingdom. The Democratic Party won with 43 seats and 407461 votes and UPC received 35 seats with 488334 votes.\nIn the same year, Uganda was granted internal self government and the DP leader, Benedicto Kiwanuka was named Chief Minister and Leader of Government business. Later that year a Lancaster House Conference was held in Britain attended by all political stakeholders to determine the political future of the country. This pre-independence Conference decided that a new mandate should be sought before Britain relinquished her responsibilities and \"protection\" among other decisions. Accordingly, another General election was held in April, 1962. These elections were for the areas outside Buganda.\nBuganda had been allocated 21 seats which were to be indirectly filled by the Lukiiko as decided at the pre - independence Lancaster house Conference.\nAll the 21 seats went to Kabaka Yekka (KY). The UPC won 37 seats with 494,959 votes and in alliance with K.Y formed the majority in the National Assembly and hence formed the Government. The Democratic Party received 24 seats with 415,718 votes.\nThe first challenge of UPC Government at independence was how best to involve the majority of the population into meaningful and beneficial economic activities without arousing racial animosity and hostility. The immigrant Asian minority issue was delicate and could have led to racial and emotional overtones. The Asian dominated the country's trade and commerce and formed a strong cadre of middle technicians in Industry and the Public Service. At the end of 1959, the breakdown of the entire civil service was composed as follows:- Africans 464, Europeans 677 and Asians 488.\nThe other most politically explosive challenge at independence was the implementation of the constitutional provision which required a referendum to be held within two years of independence to determine the wishes of the people of Bugangaizi, Singo, Buhekula and Buyaga whether they wanted:\nTo stay under the jurisdiction of Buganda kingdom or\nTransfer their allegiance to Bunyoro Kitara Kingdom or\nForm a separate District.\nThe lost countries issue was a test for all stakeholders, whether or not Independent Uganda, was to be governed under the rule of law. As the government of the day, UPC imbued with democratic principles had no alternative, but to abide by that provision of the constitution. The KY which was partners of UPC apparently had hoped that some how UPC government would find a way of not fulfilling this constitutional obligation. However, the referendum was run according to the rules that had been set in the constitution and the people of Bugangaizi and Buyaga elected to join Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom while those of Singo and Buhekula decided to remain as part of Buganda Kingdom.\nThe next challenge was that Sekabaka Mutesa II who was also President of Uganda found himself in a dilemma when presented with the lost counties statutes for signature. The constitution did allow for the signing of statutes by the Executive Prime Minister in case the President for one reason or another was not able to sign such statutes in a given time.\nAccordingly, Prime Minister Milton Obote signed both the laws that enabled the referendum to be held and affirmed the results. This led to an internal uprising in Mengo resulting in the ouster of Katiikiro Kintu basically as an escape goat. Michael Kintu was succeeded by Joash Mayanja Nkangi then a Minister of Industry in the central government.\nThe 1966 political crisis gathered momentum with Daudi Ocheng's Parliamentary motion on 4th Febuary, the arrest and detention of Ministers on 22nd Febuary, and the May Lukiiko resolution demanding the removal of the Central government from Buganda soil which threatened the peace and tranquility of the country. The May 1966, Lukiiko's resolution was reminiscent of the 1960 UDI. The government of Uganda viewed it as a confrontation and treasonable. Therefore, the government had to act to preserve the unity and territorial integrity of the country. The issuing confrontation between the central government and Mengo establishment resulted in the loss of life and the flight of Sekabaka Mutesa II into self exile. This was a very sad episode in the history of Uganda. In order to contain the situation, the government of the day put in place an interim constitution which came to be known as the Pigeonhole constitution. After relative political stabilization, a draft constitution was presented to the National Assembly. The National Assembly dissolved itself into a constituent Assembly to debate the draft. The new Republican Constitution was promulgated in 1967.\nSocioeconomic Policies\nThe economic policy platform of UPC has always been the based on the party's political and economic ideology. Its ideology is molded by the party's struggle and history of the country. UPC believes in serving the masses and its policies have always been motivated by consideration of the wishes of the people of Uganda in consonance with the principles of democracy and social justice. At the Delegates' Conference of the Party held in December 1969, UPC promulgated the common man's Charter. This was the first ideological statement marking the attempt by the party to set out a socialist agenda for Uganda. In the \"first step to move to the left\", the party: -\nMarked the beginning of a new political culture and a new way of life, where by the people of Uganda as a whole - their welfare and their voice in National Government and in their local authorities - were paramount.\nUPC declared to be anti-capitalism and feudalism\nUPC denounced tribalism, colonialism, and privilege class\nIn the Nakivubo pronouncement, UPC as part of its move to the left, announced the nationalization of some private properties.\nThe move to the left, caused a great concern to the western powers. They could not understand or tolerate the pronouncements. Partly as a result of the move to the left, the UPC government was overthrown on the 25th of January 1971 which was largely engineered by the western powers using Israel as a proxy.\nAchievements of the 1960's\nIn spite of the various challenges of the 1960's, the UPC Government was able to published and successfully implemented two-five year development plans and was able to:\nBuild and equip 23 rural hospitals through out Uganda and manned by a professional health workers. These Hospitals included Aim, Anaka, Apac, Atutur, Bududa, Bugiri, Iganga, Itojo, Kagadi, Kambuga, Kapchorwa, Moyo, Kawolo, Kiboga, Kiryandongo, Kitagata, Pallisa, Gombe, Nakaseke, Yumbe, Bundibugyo, Busolwe and Nebbi.\nTarmac thousands of miles of roads.\nBuild and equip many primary schools, secondary schools, and technical institutes.\nExtend the rail services to the Eastern and Northern Uganda.\nExpand district farm institutes and the delivery of agricultural extension services.\nDevelop the tourism industry with a number of hotels under Uganda Hotel built in many places.\nImprove the co-operative movement to the extent of starting its own bank - the Cooperative Bank.\nThe Universal Primary Education (UPE) which has been terribly mismanaged by the highly corrupt NRM Government was conceived and formulated by UPC1969 annual delegates' conference. It was passed by the parliament as one of the projects in the five years plan 1966 to be operationalized in 1970s in phases.\nTransform the small Uganda Credit Savings Society into the giant people's own Bank, Uganda Commercial Bank.\nStart Television Broadcasting and expand radio broadcasting.\nAfricanize and expand the civil service.\nNegotiated and agreed on the East African treaty which ushered in the East African community.\nStrengthened and expanded UDC including UGADEV, the forerunner of Uganda Development Bank.\nEstablished Bank of Uganda\nEstablished the Diary Corporation\nEstablished ranches and Kibimba rice scheme.\nBetween 1971 and 1979, the leadership and many members of UPC took refugee in Tanzania and Zambia. The party is very grateful for the hospitality and assistance extended to the party leaders and members during those difficult times. The struggle against Idi Amin which was spear headed by the party was greatly assisted by the government's and citizen's of these countries.\nUPC Performance 1981 - 1985.\nWhen UPC regained power in December 1980, several public demands shaped its ideological stance. First, the party was conscious of the fact that its move to the left had partly contributed to its overthrow in 1971. Secondly, the economic decline during Amin's regime necessitated a new strategy for economic reconstruction. Thirdly, Uganda Patriotic Movement (UPM), a new party formed in 1980 attracted several of its members with radical and socialist ideological orientations. Lastly on the global scene, socialism as an ideology was loosing appeal. On the African continent much as it had been successful as an ideology for liberation against colonial rule where it had been adopted as an ideology for economic transformation such as Tanzania and Guinea, it had not achieved much.\nAs a result of the above factors, UPC strategically adapted to the new World economic trend. It accepted World Bank and IMF advisers in the bid to halt the disastrous economic decline in the country. With the World Bank and IMF, UPC ushered in a new era of liberalism where the private sector and market forces other than the state were to be the engine of economic recovery.\nWhere as the party also encouraged the development and the strengthening of cooperative societies, by and large the second UPC regime from 1980 to 1985 was characterized by the ushering in of a free market economy.\nIn the forward to the UPC manifesto of 1980, the party declared that \"the liberation of Uganda is not yet completed and life continues to be insecure and difficult\". In the view of the Uganda Peoples Congress, complete liberation could only mean a united, democratic, stable and prosperous Ugandan in which all people could live and pursue their activities in peace and security. During the second stage, UPC's efforts were directed towards salvage operations which were to be completed as quickly as possible in order to set up a platform for the third stage.\nThe effects of the prolonged years of destruction and mismanagement of the country by the Idi Amin regime included large quantities of arms in illegal hands then causing insecurity, low production due to neglect of the economy in which some sectors collapsed, others stagnated and the rest declined. The same sorry state of affairs obtained in the provision of social services where schools and hospitals underwent dehumanizing deterioration. The UPC government strengthened security and ensured the protection of lives and property of the citizens, and restored the health of our economic and social life. Once we had completed the second stage, UPC energies were directed towards the development and expansion of production sectors and social services. This involved well conceived short, medium and long term development plans with definite goals\".\nThe UPC government made good its electoral promises, order and security were quickly established through out the country. The government then embarked on the important outstanding task of rehabilitation and reconstruction of the economy. To this, the UPC government first gathered and analyzed data and then wrote and published the recovery programme 1982-84. In October 1983 UPC government published the Revised Recovery Programme 1982-84.\nUnder the comprehensive revised recovery programme and in spite of the treacherous and diversionary war waged by Yoweri Museveni and other gun men, the government was able to:-\nAchieve macro economic stability by 1984. In June 1984 the two-window exchange system merged into one.\nImported over 3000 tracters to boost Agricultural production,\nRehabilited the tea plantations from forest like estates to the extent of returning to exporting tea on international market.\nIncrease agricultural production to the extent that by 1985 coffee exports exceeded Uganda's Coffee Quota of 2.5 million bags by 1.8 million bags.\nIndustrial production was revived and by the end of 1984, sugar, soft drinks, beer, soap, edible oil and other essential commodities were readily available.\nThe GDP measured against 1966 prices increased on the average by 7% p.a.\nCivil service salaries were gradually revised as the economy picked up.\nThere was 20% increase in 1982/83 budget an additional increase of 50% in1983/84 and an increase of about 4.5 times in 1984/85 budget.\nEducational and health facilities were rehabilitated and in 1984 Nakawa and Kyambogo announced as separate Universities.\nSecondary schools rose from 70 to 1250. More tertiary institutions were setup throughout the country.\nBuild many Primary Teacher Training Colleges to boost the number of trained school teachers in preparation for the introduction of UPE.\nAll these achievements and future plans were of course interrupted and ruined by the military regimes of Tito Okello and Yoweri K. Museveni in succession after July 1985.\nThe military junta of Tito Okellos was not popular as many citizens did not think that the Okellos had a capacity to run a government. This lack of popularity made the military junta gormless and was subsequently flashed out of power by the National Resistance Movement/Army (NRM/A) within six months of existence.\nWhen the NRM through the barrel of the gun formed government on 26th January 1986, they had no idea of economic planning. They experimented with the policy and the practice of barter trade, allocation of commodities and socialistic policies for two years with disastrous consequences. The IMF and World Bank withdrew funding until late 1988 when the NRM plagiarized the UPC's Revised Recovery Programme and presented it as its own new policy document. However, owing to ineptitude, corruption, indiscipline and utter mismanagement, the NRN was unable to implement the remaining aspects of the 1982-84 Revised Recovery Programme.\nManagement of the economy broke down and instead the NRM abandoned its planning role as government and abandoned the economy to the donors or what are sometimes called development partners without any pretence of any coordinated economic programme covering the entire spectrum of the economy.\nUganda is now managed on ad-hoc Sectoral basis under direct supervision of donors. We know have a host of projects, plans, services and reviews covering different time frames, funded and managed by different development partners and their technical advisors with their four wheel drive vehicle totally uncoordinated.\nThe New Ideology\nSince coming into power over 20 years ago, the incumbent regime of NRM has, through lies, falsehoods, deception, distortions, disinformation, misrepresentation and outright exaggeration, and successfully applied a sustained policy of orchestrated concentration of condemnation, demonetizations, vilification and abuse of UPC and its leaders character, values , actions, policies and history. The regime has skillfully and cleverly hypnotized, anaesthetized and sanitized political feelings and emotions of the people of Uganda, the international community and governments and even several reputable international organizations have come to condemn wholesale the UPC past governments to the extent of ridiculously asserting that the Party was regionally and ethnically based. There is now a belief that UPC was solely responsible for gross violations of human rights.\nNothing could be far from the truth as these ridiculous assertions. UPC has continued to enjoy support from all regions, religions, different social classes and cultures in Uganda.\nWhen the parties were allowed to function again after the fall of Idi Amin in 1980, UPC shifted its ideological position from socialism to a free market economy. It is important to note that UPC as a political party has always had a written ideological framework. The party has been and continues to be amenable to changes. For instance, UPC saw it fit in 1981 to alter its stand on the nationalization policy and initiated economic liberalization based on market forces. In the same way in 1994, the party initiated the policy of Federal status for Uganda.\nAgain the new political and economic order dictates that between now and 2011, the Party redefines its new ideological position. UPC Should examine its ideology and decide its new ideology based on at least three cardinal premises which have been running through its veins since the 1990s:\nPromoting and maintaining national unity\nUPC will address issues like building peace and internal security as techniques to promote national unity. It also shall address how prosperity can be distributed evenly throughout the country\nDevolving power to regional governments\nUPC supports the allocation of authority in various sectors to regional governments. These regional governments will allow population to administer their own services and spread development evenly throughout the country. UPC supports the real devolution of authority to regional governments with democratically elected governments. UPC recognizes the importance of traditional institutions in society but which must be independent of the central government although working in consonance.\nBuilding a social democratic state with equal opportunities for all\nUPC supports a democratic state that ensures all citizens have equal rights and opportunities, and the basic needs for life. UPC has all along and continues to fight ignorance, disease and poverty. To this end, UPC supports agricultural support for rural producers, price stabilization programmes for cash crop producers, and development of storage facilities for agricultural commodities. It also supports the creation of a clear unemployment policy, including supporting employment agencies and vocational and technical training. UPC vows to support the enforcement of newly - enacted legislation guaranteeing the right to collective bargaining and creation of a minimum wage. To ensure that the state meets the needs of the population for services, UPC supports the accessibility of affordable quality education, provision of water services at the household and community level, and the improvement of health services delivery at the local level. UPC programs and policies have always ensured that the interest of historically disadvantaged including women, youth, and persons with disabilities are promoted through affirmative action.\nProf. Patrick Rubaihayo\nNational Chairman, Uganda Peoples Congress",

        "title": "John Lewis: Fighting, Film and the Fertittas",
        "raw_content": "John Lewis: Fighting, Film and the Fertittas\nFew men have left a mark on the sport of MMA quite like John Lewis. A heralded jiu-jitsu practitioner who was just the fourth American to be awarded his black belt, Lewis became one of the first men to identify as a mixed martial artist when No Holds Barred fighting was still oriented around pitting single-discipline combatants against one another. He fought for Extreme Fighting, the Ultimate Fighting Championship and Vale Tudo Japan in between a solid 20 unsanctioned fights. In 1995, he took Carlson Gracie Jr. to a draw he would have won on the scorecards if judges existed and did the same opposite Rumina Sato a year later in Japan.\nLewis\u2019 feats in the cage -- where he earned a deceptively underwhelming 3-4-3 professional record between 1995 and 2000 -- are far less important than his influence outside of it. It was, after all, Lewis who introduced UFC President Dana White, then a small-time MMA manager and boxercise instructor, to Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz, and the Fertitta brothers, Lorenzo and Frank, to the sport of jiu-jitsu -- a discipline they took to enthusiastically as they began doing their due diligence on the fledgling MMA industry.\nLewis played the role of intermediary between the Fertittas and a cadre of fighters -- Liddell, Ortiz, B.J. Penn and Frank Shamrock, among them -- and eventually, the Fertitta brothers purchased the ailing UFC company from the Semaphore Entertainment Group in 2001, installing White as its president. This ultimately set the promotion on a course of aggressive expansion and unprecedented economic success, which was bookended by the organization\u2019s sale in 2016 for a record-setting $4.2 billion. Without Lewis, it may not have been so, but the 49-year old is hardly resting on his laurels.\n#actorjohnlewis\nA post shared by John Lewis (@actorjohnlewis) on May 3, 2016 at 12:13am PDT\nSpeaking to Sherdog.com, Lewis talked proudly of his contribution to MMA\u2019s formative years, the adventures he had on both sides of the curtain and how much the sport has changed in the past two decades.\n\u201cOne of most interesting parts of my story and others in my era was watching the progression of the sport, its rules, in real time,\u201d he said. \u201cNow people come into the sport and it is what it is, it will be what it will be. The rules are the rules; the gloves are the gloves. When we were in there, we\u2019d be thinking we were going to be fighting for 30 minutes and then at 2 a.m. in the morning we get a call saying we have to fight two 15-minute rounds tomorrow. The next thing [we\u2019re told] is that we\u2019re fighting three five-minute rounds and we have to wear these little glove things. We didn\u2019t train for that, but that\u2019s the only way you can fight. At 3 a.m., we\u2019re in the hotel and we get a call saying pack your bags, the police are coming to arrest everybody. We have to go to this [other] hotel and fight on a reservation to save the event.\n\u201cWe were there through all of those changes to where it is now,\u201d Lewis added. \u201cFight records are [also] different now. In those days, there were no judges, no 10-9 rounds. You could dominate somebody for an entire fight, and it gets scored a draw.\u201d\nLewis has watched the evolution of the game fondly since his retirement from competition more than 18 years ago. However, with a burgeoning career in Hollywood as an actor, producer and fitness instructor to the stars, he admits that finding time to watch the UFC and Bellator MMA on a regular basis is difficult. From what he has seen, though, he still believes he could hold his own in the cage today, and when he talks about competing, his eyes light up.\n\u201cI feel like I would do great,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you look back on my fights and remember what the time frame I was in, I think I was doing what they do now. I had black belts in multiple arts. I could punch and I could kick. I could grapple. I could do judo and wrestling. I used it all. I chose which [disciplines] I used based on my opponent and what they were good at. I could control fights, because I wasn\u2019t stuck in one specific martial art. At that time, you were a boxer, a kickboxer. I was a mixed martial artist, when there was no mixed martial arts. I fought everything.\n\u201cA lot has changed now in terms of intensity,\u201d Lewis added. \u201cPeople are willing to go toe-to-toe and bang it out more. In those days, I was like, \u2018Let me see how much I can get done and not take any damage.\u2019 Nowadays people almost want to take damage so they can get a check for having \u2018Fight of the Night\u2019\u2026 Keep in mind, when I was fighting Carlson Gracie Jr [at Extreme Fighting 1], it was zero dollars to lose, four thousand to win. We got two thousand each because it was a draw, so it was never about money. All I had was winning the fight and bettering myself; there was no other motivation.\u201d\nLewis had his last fight at UFC 28 in November 2000, shortly before he made his foray into fight promotion with the World Fighting Alliance. Discussing that transition, he also revealed that Frank Fertitta III approached him about investing in the WFA -- a move that may have permanently altered the trajectory of the industry.\n\u201cI was approached my Frank Fertitta, a close friend, when I was trying to start the WFA,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cFrank asked me if he could be an investor and a partner and finance the show. Lorenzo was on the [Nevada State Athletic] Commission and Dana [White] was still a boxing coach. What I said at that time was that I\u2019d love to do that with [Frank] but I could only do it with my partner. Frank said, \u2018I only want to do it with you John,\u2019 so I couldn\u2019t do it. Looking at it in hindsight, if Frank Fertitta would have been my partner in the WFA, with no other brand being big [at the time], the UFC was done, right? Then Lorenzo would have been on the commission. He would have backed his brother\u2019s company, the WFA, and who knows? That might have been today\u2019s UFC; and my friend, my partner, five years later, I could have cut him a $5 million check and he would have been fine. Looking back, as I got older in business, I see how I could have played that better, but at the time, it was all about loyalty. I respect myself for doing that, but there was a smarter way I could have played it.\u201d\n#ufc owners Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta #purenightclub #actorjohnlewis\nA post shared by John Lewis (@actorjohnlewis) on Mar 5, 2018 at 4:46am PST\nLewis was not surprised by the incredible success of the Zuffa era, noting that the Fertittas had the business savvy and financial backing that its competitors did not. He does, however, think that the industry has some way to evolve, predicting that the sport will ultimately depart from the \u201cleague model\u201d popularized by the UFC and head in a more star-centric direction.\n\u201cMy opinion on the final resting place of [MMA] is that it will [become] like boxing,\u201d he said, \u201cwhere it\u2019s not based on the brand, UFC or Bellator, it\u2019s really about the fighters. I mean that if you and I had a promoter\u2019s license and we had the money, we would be able to go to [Manny] Pacquiao and say, \u2018We want to promote your fight.\u2019 They say, \u2018It\u2019ll cost you this much.\u2019 We say \u2018OK\u2019 and we\u2019re making the fight. It\u2019s not called whatever the production company is called; it\u2019s called \u2018Pacquiao versus so and so.\u2019 Anyone who can pay the fighters should be able to put on the show. When it comes to that, we\u2019ll have a universal set of rankings, not show-specific rankings.\u201d\n\u201cI think it will happen naturally,\u201d Lewis added. \u201cIt just happened with Tito versus Chuck. Oscar De La Hoya could afford to pay both guys, and they had a national production.\u201d\nWith success as a fighter, MMA and night-club promoter and now actor-film producer, Lewis has a pretty good idea of how fighters can build their personal brands, looking at pioneers from his era like Liddell and Ortiz, who wrote the playbook on putting themselves on fans\u2019 radars. Authenticity is the key to selling a character, and when it comes to making a transition to the entertainment world, being prepared to hustle is the name of the game.\n\u201cTito was always talking, digging the graves,\u201d he said. \u201cTito popped from that: \u2018The Huntington Beach Bad Boy.\u2019 Conor [McGregor] just took that [approach] and took it to another level and showed how far you can go and what the path would be if you can build your brand that way. You see it now with the way [fighters are in] interviews. They\u2019re applying a cookie cutter of what Conor does. I think it\u2019s a mistake. It\u2019s corny; it\u2019s not real. They have to learn to find who they really are and find a way to make that interesting. It\u2019s kind of like movie-making, taking a character and finding the true character, not trying to mimic somebody else\u2019s success. Who are you and why are you interesting? Some will stand out, and some won\u2019t be able to pull it off. Only some have the magic.\n\u201cThe advice I would give to every fighter looking to get into acting is [they] don\u2019t realize how lucky they are to get a phone call, offering them a role in a new series or big [TV] show,\u201d Lewis added. \u201cThey think, \u2018Oh, cool,\u2019 but they don\u2019t practice or go take classes and they do these shows and they don\u2019t appreciate the opportunity. Outside of Gina Carano, I\u2019m yet to see a show with an MMA star where the star was amazing. I see a lot of wasted opportunities from fighters. They get it too easy.\u201d\nLewis is quick to mention that his own path, from the cage to the silver screen, was not as linear as that of Carano or Ronda Rousey. Having competed before MMA was on the mainstream radar and having made the jump to club promoting after the WFA was bought out by Zuffa in 2006, Lewis came upon acting almost by accident on the strength of his contact lists.\n\u201cWhen I was in Vegas, I made my money from my schools and a lot [more] in the night club industry,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cI was top of the food chain there in that game. One of things that I did in the business, marketing for nightlife venues and companies, was I brought celebrities and brands together to help build brands, which put me in contact with some very big agents in [Los Angeles].\u201d\nWith a growing network of Hollywood power brokers, Lewis was encouraged to make the jump into acting, shuttling back and forth between Las Vegas and Los Angeles to attend auditions while taking acting lessons on the side. His discipline paid off, and since 2011, Lewis has had 24 acting credits -- they include in the immensely popular \u201cSons of Anarchy\u201d TV series and Gerard Butler\u2019s action blockbuster \u201cDen of Thieves\u201d -- and another 12 as a producer.\nWe could do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way. Call it. #actorjohnlewis\nA post shared by John Lewis (@actorjohnlewis) on Apr 16, 2018 at 6:51am PDT\nLewis credits his success to giving 100 percent to the game, making the move from Las Vegas to Hollywood and approaching each project with a service mentality.\n\u201cI started taking classes, doing post-production, learning what I was talking about,\u201d he said. \u201cI really made it in acting by transitioning from the club industry to Hollywood. Nothing from fighting gave me any benefit to my career as an actor. There wasn\u2019t even Twitter in those days. None of that existed. It was really me coming here as an actor and going to auditions but also talking to people, making friends, asking, \u2018How can I help you?\u2019\n\u201cIf there was anything I was smart with,\u201d Lewis added, \u201c[it was] that I always knew when to leave. I left when I still had time [in that space]. People were telling me I should fight again, but I always knew better. I never got stuck in the situation when I was fighting past my prime. I was never holding onto something that was bankrupting me. I always left early and started again and snowballed off of good situations. It was important to know when to hold them and when to fold them.\u201d\nSince embarking on his career in film, Lewis has typically played the villain in the projects he has booked, including his role as the sociopathic outlaw Reb in the 2017 Western film \u201cJustice.\u201d While he admits playing the bad guy is more fun as an experience, Lewis\u2019 designs are set on the leading-man spot.\n\u201cBeing a co-lead as the villain, it\u2019s fun\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a great role. Playing the bad guy is way more fun than the good guy. The good guys are straightforward; you can play yourself. The bad guy, you get to create the character, you can be twisted. It\u2019s more fun, but career-wise, I prefer to play the leading man. I have a couple of films coming out in the next year. They\u2019re back-to-back scheduled. They\u2019re all big films with big stars. It\u2019s going the right direction. That\u2019s part of the hustle. You have to climb to become that guy.\u201d\nOne of Lewis\u2019 latest films, Matthew Berkowitz\u2019s \u201cA Violent Man,\u201d may already be on MMA fans\u2019 radars. Starring Liddell and former NFL player Thomas Q Jones, the movie follows a struggling MMA fighter, Ty, as he navigates the sordid politics of the industry and a police investigation into the death of a female MMA journalist with whom he had a one-night stand. Lewis plays Jameson, Ty\u2019s close friend and confidant, and spoke enthusiastically about the experience as an actor, producer and fight choreographer for the film.\nOn set with my boys @chuckliddell and @ThomasQJones. #aviolentman #johnlewis #actor #mma #ufc #actorjohnlewis\nA post shared by John Lewis (@actorjohnlewis) on Jan 14, 2017 at 12:12am PST\n\u201cI knew the film producers from \u2018Gutshot Straight\u2019 [released in 2014],\u201d he said. \u201cThe editor and producer from that called me and asked if I wanted to produce this new film with them. He asked if I could bring some talent to the film, and I [obliged]. I brought Chuck Liddell [and] Felisha Terrell to the cast. He also offered me a great role [as Jameson]. I became a producer because they needed someone to patch it together, to put on some finishing touches on it and get it made. I also choreographed the fight scenes.\n\u201cIt was really fun,\u201d Lewis added. \u201cThomas was a tough guy. He can scrap as an athlete, but he wanted to learn MMA all around. We choreographed some really fun stuff. I had him and Chuck get together for weeks and weeks, just getting them to move together, roll together, get used to each other. I also worked with Thomas privately. Then I choreographed the fights, and we went through many weeks of rehearsals and doing the actual movie. Chuck\u2019s a really fun guy to work with. He\u2019s such a good, sweet person. He\u2019s very generous with his body for Thomas. Thomas loved getting to know Chuck that way. It was a really fun experience getting people ready for the film.\u201d\nWith a number of films set to be released 2019 and more to come, courtesy of a first-look deal with WonderFilm Media, Lewis is enjoying some free time before things get crazy in the months ahead. When asked if he would ever consider getting back into the MMA industry in some capacity in the future, Lewis smiled.\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t leave what I\u2019m doing,\u201d he said, \u201cbut I see those two roles working together. I could get back into a promotional role with a company, but I wouldn\u2019t be the one who wanted to start a company. I would rather jump into something and play a role in the puzzle and make things happen. I\u2019m making major progression in a very short amount of time with what I\u2019m doing now. Sky is the limit in the direction that I\u2019m going now.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "As already explained, I have recently been working on various big-data-related developments (the appendix of this project includes my detailed impressions about one of them). These experiences have helped me gain relevant insights into big data forecasting, as opposed to what is associated with my more-restricted-model background.\nThe most relevant differences which I observed when facing the aforementioned big-data problems are summarised in the following points:\nBuilding comprehensive models (i.e., ones adequately accounting for virtually any sub-situation) is very difficult; in most of the cases, such a proceeding isn't even recommendable. The next point helps to understand this issue better; more specifically: the big-data expectations and/or assessing methodologies tend to favour not-so-bad-for-the-most outputs what penalises slightly-mispredicting-more-insightful approaches.\nGeneric assessing methodologies. A descriptive example to illustrate this point: by taking an average-based methodology and assuming that the modelled behaviour is defined by (input=>output) 1=>2, 2=>3 and 3=>1, predictions of the form 1=>2, 2=>2 and 3=>2 would be assumed perfect. Such a proceeding would provoke a relevant penalisation for high-accuracy-prone attempts: in the very unlikely scenario of delivering an actually-perfect answer, it would get the same score than the aforementioned simplistic average-value result; in any other case, it would be worse independently upon its real understanding of the underlying behaviour.\nAs a consequence of the two previous points, getting adapted to the peculiarities of this format seems an unavoidable requirement. Even a priori easy and intuitive ideas (e.g., keeping it as simple as possible) cannot be immediately applied, mainly in case of coming from a different background. The big-data character (i.e., huge training data sets, together with the conditions and expectations usually associated with these problems) has certainly a big influence on the way in which the given model is being developed.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Vet School Advice > By the Numbers: The Cost of Vet School\nBy the Numbers: The Cost of Vet School\nOne of my constant, joking refrains goes something like, \u201c\u2026When I\u2019m rich and famous, working as a vet, I\u2019ll be able to afford that little lakefront cottage.\u201d But if you\u2019re poking around the veterinary medicine field for the money, you are more than a little lost. Whoever told you vets are in it for the money is making a joke: you see, veterinarians don\u2019t see 100% of that vet bill. Veterinary medicine differs from human medicine in that vets must tailor both restraint and medical tools to fit the animal species, which means that practice owners must invest in specialty equipment if they wish to practice medicine safely and efficiently.\nAnd even if veterinarians don\u2019t start their own business practice, most make expensive monthly payments on their educational debt. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) reports an average of $18,000 for in-state yearly tuition and $38,000 for out-of-state for the 30 accredited colleges of veterinary medicine. That doesn\u2019t sound all that bad until you realize that most students have exhausted their funds paying for the prerequisite undergraduate courses. According to a 2012 survey by the AVMA, 89.2% of vet students expected to borrow more than $151,000. (In case you were wondering, the federal government calculates a monthly payment of $961.29 for 25 years under the extended repayment plan, if you had $138,500 in initial debt. Here\u2019s a link to the Montana Guaranteed Student Loan Program website, which walks you through the most common repayment schedules and also includes the handy-dandy chart from which I took the above statistic. http://www.mgslp.org/managing-your-loan/repayment-schedule )\nFactor in the money spent on prerequisite undergraduate courses\u2014 which averaged $14,300 a year at public institutions and $23,300 a year for private for-profit institutions in 2012 according to the National Center for Education Statistics\u2014and you start to realize that becoming a veterinarian can cost anywhere from $129,200 to $245,200. People are spending big bucks to become educated as licensed veterinarians. But what sort of return are they making on such an educational investment? The AVMA estimates the median entering salary of veterinarians to be $65,404 in 2012, which is comparable to the salary of a business operations manager, a computer programmer, or a commercial pilot, according to CareerOverview.com.\nNope, vets aren\u2019t in it for the money. We\u2019re in it for the science, for the thrill of puzzling out diagnoses, and for the love of animals and their role in human lives\u2014those are some of my reasons, anyway. But determining the true costs and gains of life as a veterinarian is not as simple as just adding up the money spent and the money received. I may not have begun my four years at veterinary school yet, but my thousands of hours spent in the classroom, in the field, and in the clinic have given me a wealth of knowledge about the veterinary profession, and I get more passionate about my field every day. For me, the monetary investment is worth all this hard work and sacrifice, but you will have to make that decision for yourself.\n** If you are interested in more information about the costs of attending vet school, I suggest the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges website (www.aavmc.org), which has great links for information about careers, applying to schools, and preparation tips as well. Also, tuition varies greatly depending on the school and whether you are applying as an in-state or out-of-state resident, so I suggest using the AAVMC website to find colleges near you, then going directly to that college\u2019s website to begin researching costs.\nTo All the Great Teachers\nFiled Under: Vet School Advice Tagged With: beginnings, Finances, vet school, veterinary school\nAnother Reason To Be a Vet\u2026.",

Getting people to come to your website more than they do the websites of your competitors is vital, but it often seems like an impossible task. Let\u2019s be clear: it is a big task. But it\u2019s not impossible. In fact, it often isn\u2019t as difficult as people make it out to be. Here are the things you need to keep in mind when it comes to really hooking people.\nIf you are a new business, website, or blog, you may be surprised by how sparse your pages look at first. The key is striking a balance between something eye-catching and attractive without cluttering the page.\nKeep the content quality exceptionally high. You can visit https://www.udemy.com/how-to-create-high-quality-blog-content-that-gets-shared/ if you want to look into the teaching of content techniques. Spamming visitors with endless blog posts won\u2019t work. Ensure that what is visible is of excellent quality, and it won\u2019t matter if there is not much of it. Don\u2019t take this to mean that quantity doesn\u2019t matter, though; people will want more of your great content and you should deliver it!\nOur world is more communicative than ever these days. With selfies, instant messenger, and more, people love to interact. Make sure that every post you make is easy (and inviting) to share. If you or your business have additional social media, share your content across each of the platforms attached to you. Add buttons that link to popular sites like Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and more. If you think your social media presence needs to be more impressive, check out http://www.buycheapfollowersfast.com/twitter/. Be sure to research the demographics and target platforms that best suit your intended audience. Statistics show that Pinterest has a high percentage of female users, for example.\nYour aim should generally be to make your content as accessible and user-friendly as possible. There is no sense in creating great content that no-one will ever see or be able to share with their friends. Good websites have to be supported by good technology. Master the art of adding the share buttons and watch your traffic skyrocket! Encourage further interaction by adding a comment section, too.\nMake sure you are familiar with jargon as it relates to your website and its traffic. Are you familiar with boosting SEO? Do you know what conversion optimization is? SEO and conversion rate optimization are important to understand.\nSEO refers to \u201csearch engine optimization\u201d. Basically, ensure that you are giving web users the best chances of finding your content. Make sure you include a relevant title and core keywords throughout the post, for example. That way, when people Google your topic, your post becomes more likely of popping up. You can read more about succeeding in this field at https://tech.co/anne-ward-win-seo-battlefield-2017-03. As for conversion rate optimization, it\u2019s the rate at which visitors are \u201cconverted\u201d into actual customers.

        "raw_content": "September 30, 2018 Vintage Everyday 1800s, event & history, photography, portraits, sport 0\nThis 1869 baseball card is considered to be one of the first baseball cards ever made. It was found accidentally by a 72-year-old woman from California who originally listed it on eBay just for $10 dollars. After bidders showed an unusual interest, she withdrew it and it eventually sold it at auction for more that $75,000 dollars.\nIn 1869, Peck & Snyder printed trade cards with a photo of the undefeated Cincinnati Red Stockings, the pioneering professional team. (Professional Sports Authenticator)\nWhile the date of the absolutely oldest card is uncertain, what is believed by many collectors to be the first true mass-produced baseball card was created in 1869 by the Peck & Snyder Sporting Goods Company of 124-128 Nassau Street in Manhattan. The company was founded in 1866 by Andrew Peck and Irving Snyder, who sought to capitalize on a growing interest in sports by an America that was exhausted from the Civil War.\n\u201cAlthough their emotions were still raw from the war, Americans found the rapidly spreading popularity of baseball was a common ground on which to gather,\u201d Jerry Houseman wrote in an article about the company on the website Sports Collectors Daily. Men who only a year earlier had tried to kill each other on the battlefield were now teammates on the ball field. \u201cPeck & Snyder seized the moment and combined sports and pictures into one,\u201d the article says. \u201cBaseball fans no doubt loved it.\u201d\nBaseball and photography were both in their infancy; newspapers were not printing advertising photographs yet, and Peck & Snyder, like many other mid-Victorian businesses, advertised themselves by mass-producing trade cards to give out. In 1869, the company printed trade cards, in bright red lettering, with a team photo of the undefeated Cincinnati Red Stockings, the pioneering professional team. There were several varieties of the card; in the most sought-after, the players\u2019 names were printed beneath the photo. They posed in their uniforms and bootlike shoes, and held bats, but there were no gloves yet.\nDepending, as always with collectibles, on their condition, the few surviving 1869 Red Stockings cards can be worth a small fortune.\nIn 2009, a card found in an odd lot by an antiques dealer in Fresno, Calif., Bernice Gallego, sold for more than $75,000. Ms. Gallego, who had never seen a baseball game, initially offered the card for $10 on eBay, but withdrew it after bidders showed unusual interest.\nThe Peck & Snyder company prospered, branched out to other sports, especially bicycling, and was later sold to the Chicago sports equipment maker A. G. Spalding, the former player and team executive.",

        "raw_content": "There are truly many compassionate and caring people in this world and the police officer in the following story is one of them. When she saw a teenager trying to take his own life, she did all that she could to save it.\nInstead of hesitating or contemplating what to do next, this woman leaped into action to prevent a horrible event from becoming even worse. It\u2019s heroes like the woman in the following story that we need more of.\nWhile driving to work on a Friday, a Westchester County police officer watched in horror as a young boy ran against traffic on the Saw Mill River Parkway. Then, the boy stopped and climbed over a guardrail, jumping 30 feet below into an empty storage yard. The officer, Jessie Ferreiro Cavallo, recalls being shocked and at the same time, knowing that she had to do something.\nSuicidal Boy\nwww.emtbravo.net\nShe immediately parked her car on the shoulder, as did other passersby and grabbed a first aid kit. To reach the boy, Cavallo had to make nearly the same jump as he did, which she did without hesitation. Along with the help of another Samaritan, Cavallo administered CPR. They were able to put a neck brace on him and make a splint for his arm.\nTime Was of the Essence\nwww.pressfrom.info\nWhen she first got close to him, Cavallo believed that the boy looked like a young teenager. \u201cEverything happened so fast and I think my adrenaline was pumping so high,\u201d she told the Detroit Free Press. When she saw the boy, she admitted that she wasn\u2019t thinking too much. The state of the child was horrible and she knew she had to continue to act fast.\nAiding the Teen\nCavallo recalled that all she saw was blood. \u201cI just knew, when I looked down and saw him \u2026 he looked dead. I couldn\u2019t see anything other than blood. I thought to myself, \u2018He needs help. I need to help him.\u2019\u201d Besides Cavallo, another woman in military uniform also stopped to help. \u201cBoth me and her \u2026 were able to aid and assist him,\u201d she said.\nwww.newsfromwomen.com\nAfter some time, the boy opened up his eyes, but was mostly non-responsive, Cavallo said. The whole time she was talking to the other woman at the scene who was identified as Laura Yakaboski, a Yonkers police officer, who also just happened to be passing by at the right time. Both Yakaboski and Cavallo were talking to each other like they were together, even though they had never met before.\nHe was Fleeing Andrus\nhome.llu.edu\nYakaboski reported the incident and helped direct the ambulance to the scene. The women waited for help to arrive and the boy was taken to the hospital with a broken arm, broken nose, and leg injuries. Once in the hospital, the officers learned that the boy was around 12 or 13 years old and he had fled from Andrus, a private, nonprofit organization for children with severe emotional, behavioral and mental health issues.\nwww.andruscc.org\nA description on their website reads: \u201cAndrus is a private, non-profit organization that helps secure strong, promising futures for children, families, and communities by promoting stability, increasing resilience, and rebuilding hope. \u2026 We specialize in teaching children and families the skills to express and cope with strong emotions. We help increase the well of resources available to them to manage the impacts of adversity, particularly severe emotional, behavioral and mental health issues in children.\u201d\nBy this description alone, anyone can gather that this teenager was going through a really difficult time and he may have felt like his life was no longer worth living. While he recovered in the hospital, Cavallo reflected on what she did. It didn\u2019t truly hit her until the following day that she risked her life and her health to save this boy.\nRealizing What She Did\nwestchester.news12.com\n\u201cFriday, after this whole thing happened, I went to work and worked to 11 p.m,\u201d Cavallo said. \u201cI didn\u2019t realize what was going on until yesterday. That\u2019s when it hit me \u2026 I didn\u2019t realize how high it was. It seemed doable. It didn\u2019t seem that high. I thought I jumped over a brick wall or a cement barrier. It was so fast. It was more like tunnel vision. I saw the boy and I needed to get to him. I didn\u2019t see anything else.\u201d\nLife-Saving Officer\nShe planned on seeing the boy in the hospital the following day (Sunday), but she wasn\u2019t permitted to. Thankfully, the boy is believed to make a full recovery at the Westchester Medical Center. \u201cI just hope he\u2019s doing well,\u201d Cavallo told The New York Post. \u201cI just want to give him a hug.\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time Cavallo, 28, saved a life. In her seven years as a New York police officer, she\u2019s received six lifesaving awards.\nWhile working as a Mount Vernon officer, Cavallo saved an elderly man after a heart attack by using a defibrillator and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. She also received several awards in Hastings for administering naloxone in heroin overdoses. Not to mention, she\u2019s been recognized for her undercover work with the FBI and a county task force.\nMan Trying to Take His Own Life\nThis is just one of many near-fatal suicidal jumps where law enforcement stepped in to help save someone\u2019s life. In April 2018, law enforcement and truckers in Michigan teamed up to save the life of a man who was ready to jump off a highway bridge. It happened one night when someone saw a man look down at the midnight traffic on Interstate 696 and considered the fall.\nBlocking the Gaps Beneath the Bridge\nBy the time officers got to the scene at 1 a.m., the man was still there, deciding which way to jump. In an effort to prevent the man from jumping and hopefully save his life, police blocked off the lanes beneath the bridge and negotiators started to talk to the man, urging him to walk off the bridge and continue his life.\nShutting Down the Highway\nwwjnewsradio.radio.com\nOnce responders figured out that this was a real situation where someone might be contemplating taking their own life, they shut down traffic and diverted it off to the street. After the highway under the bridge was closed off, onlookers started to film as officers formed sort of a bridge beneath the bridge\u2013a safety net of metal to break any fall.\nCreating a Barricade\nThirteen trucks packed in tightly to minimize the gaps between them and should the man have fallen, it would have been only five or six feet onto the roof of a truck, rather than 14 feet to the concrete below. The Michigan State Police on the scene explained to CNN, \u201cUsually when we talk to people that are involved in these types of incidents, there\u2019s a trigger. We try to find out what the trigger is and rectify it.\u201d\nPreventing a Suicide\nwww.fox2detroit.com\nIt wasn\u2019t the first time they used truckers to stop a suicide, but it was unusual to see so many volunteers. From one wall of the interstate to the other, it was nothing but rigs, with their roofs being just a few feet away from the bridge. The whole process took about three or four hours and by the end of it, the man who had once been alone with his thoughts now had police on each side of him, talking to him and a row of truckers sitting below, refusing him his option to fall.\nThe Photo Didn\u2019t Tell the Whole Story\nA picture of the scene, showing the 13 trucks parked in both directions beneath the bridge, gained a ton of attention on social media, but it didn\u2019t tell the whole story. \u201cIn that picture somewhere is somebody that was contemplating ending their own life,\u201d Lt. Mike Shaw of the Michigan State Police said. \u201cWe want that to be the story\u2013not what Michigan State Police did or what the truckers did, but that the person changed their own mind.\u201d\nThe recent deaths of fashion icon Kate spade and chef-turned-TV-host Anthony Bourdain are raising even more awareness of suicide prevention. It\u2019s estimated that nearly 40,000 people have died from suicide in 2011, which makes suicide the cause of more deaths than murder, car accidents, or prostate cancer, according to the American Association of Suicidology.\nSome of the risk factors for suicide include depression, mental disorders, a prior suicide attempt, family history, or exposure to other people\u2019s suicide behavior, according to the National Institutes of Health. Some of the warning signs of suicide are: Talking about wanting to die (about 50%-75% of people who attempt suicide tell someone about it first), finding ways to kill themselves, insomnia, and losing interest in things and becoming withdrawn from family and friends.\nIf Someone is Suicidal\nIf you know someone who is thinking about suicide, it\u2019s best not to leave them by themselves. It\u2019s also important to remove anything that might be harmful to the person, such as guns. You should try and get your loved one to seek immediate help from a doctor or to go to the nearest emergency room. You can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).\nJournalist Held Captive by Pirates Explains How Forgiveness and Focus Kept Him Alive\nSacred Dakota Relic Tied to Historic War Takes Unexpected Journey Back Home",

        "raw_content": "Human-Shaped Mushroom Grows In England\nLatest, News, Science\nA human-shaped mushroom species has been discovered on the side of a road in Norfolk, England.\nJonathan Revett, a mycology hobbyist for over 40 years and owner of fenfungi.com, found the mushroom and sent a specimen in for analysis after noticing its unique humanoid shape. Naturally seeming to possess \u201chuman head and arms\u201d, the fragile stalk can split in two, creating its \u201clegs\u201d \u2013 which has caused some to compare the mushroom to a fisherman, or a \u201chat villain\u201d, wearing a poncho.\nThey do look like little mushroom men. It\u2019s really strange how their shape makes them look like they have a head and arms. That\u2019s what drew my attention to them.\u201d\nThe species has been named Geastrum britannicum, a new type of Earthstar mushroom; which means that locomotion isn\u2019t actually out of the question. The fruit bodies of several Earthstar species are known to dry out and curl around the \u2018shroom\u2019s delicate spore sac. In this state, the fungus will detach from the ground and roll off toward new, moister pastures, like tumbleweeds. One such species, Sphaerobolus stellatus, is commonly referred to as the \u201cshotgun\u201d or \u201ccannonball\u201d fungus, as it\u2019s capable of throwing black spore-globs on painted surfaces and ruining homes.\nOn the other hand, since Mr Revett\u2019s original find, three more specimens have been collected in Norfolk and the fungus has also been found in Hampshire and the Welsh Borders.\nCarl Chapman, of Norfolk-based Wildlife Tours and Education said,\nThis is a riveting stuff. This is not just a new species for Norfolk \u2013 this is a new species for the world. They were doing the work and requested some samples of this fungus and found the DNA was different.\u201d\nBut the most interesting part is that this tumbling humanoid fungus, is both inedible and highly poisonous.\nSo stay away, guys! There\u2019s no sense getting killed by a fungus!",

Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language or dialect, symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art or physical appearance.\nThe largest ethnic groups in modern times comprise hundreds of millions of individuals ( Han Chinese being the largest), while the smallest are limited to a few dozen individuals (numerous indigenous peoples worldwide). Larger ethnic groups may be subdivided into smaller sub-groups known variously as tribes or clans, which over time may become separate ethnic groups themselves due to endogamy or physical isolation from the parent group. Conversely, formerly separate ethnicities can merge to form a pan-ethnicity, and may eventually merge into one single ethnicity. Whether through division or amalgamation, the formation of a separate ethnic identity is referred to as ethnogenesis.\nThe term ethnic is derived from the Greek word \u1f14\u03b8\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 ethnos (more precisely, from the adjective \u1f10\u03b8\u03bd\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 ethnikos, [3] which was loaned into Latin as ethnicus). The inherited English language term for this concept is folk, used alongside the latinate people since the late Middle English period.\nIn Early Modern English and until the mid-19th century, ethnic was used to mean heathen or pagan (in the sense of disparate \"nations\" which did not yet participate in the Christian oikumene), as the Septuagint used ta ethne (\"the nations\") to translate the Hebrew goyim \"the nations, non-Hebrews, non-Jews\". [4] The Greek term in early antiquity ( Homeric Greek) could refer to any large group, a host of men, a band of comrades as well as a swarm or flock of animals. In Classical Greek, the term took on a meaning comparable to the concept now expressed by \"ethnic group\", mostly translated as \" nation, people\"; only in Hellenistic Greek did the term tend to become further narrowed to refer to \"foreign\" or \" barbarous\" nations in particular (whence the later meaning \"heathen, pagan\"). [5]\nIn the 19th century, the term came to be used in the sense of \"peculiar to a race, people or nation\", in a return to the original Greek meaning. The sense of \"different cultural groups\", and in American English \"racial, cultural or national minority group\" arises in the 1930s to 1940s, [6] serving as a replacement of the term race which had earlier taken this sense but was now becoming deprecated due to its association with ideological racism. The abstract ethnicity had been used for \"paganism\" in the 18th century, but now came to express the meaning of an \"ethnic character\" (first recorded 1953). The term ethnic group was first recorded in 1935 and entered the Oxford English Dictionary in 1972. [7] Depending on the context that is used, the term nationality may either be used synonymously with ethnicity, or synonymously with citizenship (in a sovereign state). The process that results in the emergence of an ethnicity is called ethnogenesis, a term in use in ethnological literature since about 1950.\nshared descent (\u1f45\u03bc\u03b1\u03b9\u03bc\u03bf\u03bd - homaimon, \"of the same blood\"), [8]\nshared language (\u1f41\u03bc\u03cc\u03b3\u03bb\u03c9\u03c3\u03c3\u03bf\u03bd - homogl\u014dsson, \"speaking the same language\") [9]\nshared sanctuaries and sacrifices (Greek: \u03b8\u03b5\u1ff6\u03bd \u1f31\u03b4\u03c1\u03cd\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03ac \u03c4\u03b5 \u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bd\u1f70 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03b8\u03c5\u03c3\u03af\u03b1\u03b9 - the\u014dn hidrumata te koina kai thusiai) [10]\nshared customs (Greek: \u1f24\u03b8\u03b5\u03b1 \u1f41\u03bc\u03cc\u03c4\u03c1\u03bf\u03c0\u03b1 - \u0113thea homotropa, \"customs of like fashion\"). [11] [12] [13]\nWhether ethnicity qualifies as a cultural universal is to some extent dependent on the exact definition used. According to \"Challenges of Measuring an Ethnic World: Science, politics, and reality\", in Challenges of Measuring an Ethnic World: Science, Politics and Reality : Proceedings of the Joint Canada-United States Conference on the Measurement of Ethnicity, April 1\u20133, 1992, Joint Canada-United States Conference on the Measurement of Ethnicity, Department of Commerce, Statistics Canada, 1993, [14] a conference organised by Statistics Canada and the United States Census Bureau (April 1\u20133, 1992). [15] Many social scientists, such as anthropologists Fredrik Barth and Eric Wolf, do not consider ethnic identity to be universal. They regard ethnicity as a product of specific kinds of inter-group interactions, rather than an essential quality inherent to human groups. [16][ irrelevant citation]\nOne is between \" primordialism\" and \" instrumentalism\". In the primordialist view, the participant perceives ethnic ties collectively, as an externally given, even coercive, social bond. [17] The instrumentalist approach, on the other hand, treats ethnicity primarily as an ad-hoc element of a political strategy, used as a resource for interest groups for achieving secondary goals such as, for instance, an increase in wealth, power, or status. [18] [19] This debate is still an important point of reference in Political science, although most scholars' approaches fall between the two poles. [20]\nThe second debate is between \" constructivism\" and \" essentialism\". Constructivists view national and ethnic identities as the product of historical forces, often recent, even when the identities are presented as old. [21] [22] Essentialists view such identities as ontological categories defining social actors, and not the result of social action. [23] [24]\nAccording to Eriksen, these debates have been superseded, especially in anthropology, by scholars' attempts to respond to increasingly politicised forms of self-representation by members of different ethnic groups and nations. This is in the context of debates over multiculturalism in countries, such as the United States and Canada, which have large immigrant populations from many different cultures, and post-colonialism in the Caribbean and South Asia. [25]\nMax Weber maintained that ethnic groups were k\u00fcnstlich (artificial, i.e. a social construct) because they were based on a subjective belief in shared Gemeinschaft (community). Secondly, this belief in shared Gemeinschaft did not create the group; the group created the belief. Third, group formation resulted from the drive to monopolise power and status. This was contrary to the prevailing naturalist belief of the time, which held that socio-cultural and behavioral differences between peoples stemmed from inherited traits and tendencies derived from common descent, then called \"race\". [26]\nAnother influential theoretician of ethnicity was Fredrik Barth, whose \"Ethnic Groups and Boundaries\" from 1969 has been described as instrumental in spreading the usage of the term in social studies in the 1980s and 1990s. [27] Barth went further than Weber in stressing the constructed nature of ethnicity. To Barth, ethnicity was perpetually negotiated and renegotiated by both external ascription and internal self-identification. Barth's view is that ethnic groups are not discontinuous cultural isolates, or logical a prioris to which people naturally belong. He wanted to part with anthropological notions of cultures as bounded entities, and ethnicity as primordialist bonds, replacing it with a focus on the interface between groups. \"Ethnic Groups and Boundaries\", therefore, is a focus on the interconnectedness of ethnic identities. Barth writes: \"... categorical ethnic distinctions do not depend on an absence of mobility, contact and information, but do entail social processes of exclusion and incorporation whereby discrete categories are maintained despite changing participation and membership in the course of individual life histories.\"\n... the named ethnic identities we accept, often unthinkingly, as basic givens in the literature are often arbitrarily, or even worse inaccurately, imposed. [27]\nIn this way, he pointed to the fact that identification of an ethnic group by outsiders, e.g. anthropologists, may not coincide with the self-identification of the members of that group. He also described that in the first decades of usage, the term ethnicity had often been used in lieu of older terms such as \"cultural\" or \"tribal\" when referring to smaller groups with shared cultural systems and shared heritage, but that \"ethnicity\" had the added value of being able to describe the commonalities between systems of group identity in both tribal and modern societies. Cohen also suggested that claims concerning \"ethnic\" identity (like earlier claims concerning \"tribal\" identity) are often colonialist practices and effects of the relations between colonized peoples and nation-states. [27]\n[C]ategorizations about identity, even when codified and hardened into clear typologies by processes of colonization, state formation or general modernizing processes, are always full of tensions and contradictions. Sometimes these contradictions are destructive, but they can also be creative and positive. [28]\nSocial scientists have thus focused on how, when, and why different markers of ethnic identity become salient. Thus, anthropologist Joan Vincent observed that ethnic boundaries often have a mercurial character. [29] Ronald Cohen concluded that ethnicity is \"a series of nesting dichotomizations of inclusiveness and exclusiveness\". [27] He agrees with Joan Vincent's observation that (in Cohen's paraphrase) \"Ethnicity ... can be narrowed or broadened in boundary terms in relation to the specific needs of political mobilization. [27] This may be why descent is sometimes a marker of ethnicity, and sometimes not: which diacritic of ethnicity is salient depends on whether people are scaling ethnic boundaries up or down, and whether they are scaling them up or down depends generally on the political situation.\nDifferent approaches to understanding ethnicity have been used by different social scientists when trying to understand the nature of ethnicity as a factor in human life and society. As Jonathan M. Hall observes, World War II was a turning point in the ethnic studies. The consequences of Nazi racism discouraged essentianlist interpretations of ethnic groups and race. Ethnic groups came to be defined as social rather than as biological entities. Their coherence was attributed to shared myths, descent, kinship, a common place of origin, language, religion, customs and national character. So, ethnic groups are conceived as mutable rather than stable, constructed in discursive practices rather than written in the genes. [30]\n\"Essentialist primordialism\" further holds that ethnicity is an a priori fact of human existence, that ethnicity precedes any human social interaction and that it is basically unchanged by it. This theory sees ethnic groups as natural, not just as historical. It also has problems dealing with the consequences of intermarriage, migration and colonization for the composition of modern day multi-ethnic societies. [31]\n\"Kinship primordialism\" holds that ethnic communities are extensions of kinship units, basically being derived by kinship or clan ties where the choices of cultural signs (language, religion, traditions) are made exactly to show this biological affinity. In this way, the myths of common biological ancestry that are a defining feature of ethnic communities are to be understood as representing actual biological history. A problem with this view on ethnicity is that it is more often than not the case that mythic origins of specific ethnic groups directly contradict the known biological history of an ethnic community. [31]\n\"Geertz's primordialism\", notably espoused by anthropologist Clifford Geertz, argues that humans in general attribute an overwhelming power to primordial human \"givens\" such as blood ties, language, territory, and cultural differences. In Geertz' opinion, ethnicity is not in itself primordial but humans perceive it as such because it is embedded in their experience of the world. [31]\n\"Perennialism\", an approach that is primarily concerned with nationhood but tends to see nations and ethnic communities as basically the same phenomenon, holds that the nation, as a type of social and political organisation, is of an immemorial or \"perennial\" character. [32] Smith (1999) distinguishes two variants: \"continuous perennialism\", which claims that particular nations have existed for very long spans of time, and \"recurrent perennialism\", which focuses on the emergence, dissolution and reappearance of nations as a recurring aspect of human history. [33]\n\"Instrumentalist perennialism\", while seeing ethnicity primarily as a versatile tool that identified different ethnics groups and limits through time, explains ethnicity as a mechanism of social stratification, meaning that ethnicity is the basis for a hierarchical arrangement of individuals. According to Donald Noel, a sociologist who developed a theory on the origin of ethnic stratification, ethnic stratification is a \"system of stratification wherein some relatively fixed group membership (e.g., race, religion, or nationality) is utilized as a major criterion for assigning social positions\". [34] Ethnic stratification is one of many different types of social stratification, including stratification based on socio-economic status, race, or gender. According to Donald Noel, ethnic stratification will emerge only when specific ethnic groups are brought into contact with one another, and only when those groups are characterized by a high degree of ethnocentrism, competition, and differential power. Ethnocentrism is the tendency to look at the world primarily from the perspective of one's own culture, and to downgrade all other groups outside one's own culture. Some sociologists, such as Lawrence Bobo and Vincent Hutchings, say the origin of ethnic stratification lies in individual dispositions of ethnic prejudice, which relates to the theory of ethnocentrism. [35] Continuing with Noel's theory, some degree of differential power must be present for the emergence of ethnic stratification. In other words, an inequality of power among ethnic groups means \"they are of such unequal power that one is able to impose its will upon another\". [34] In addition to differential power, a degree of competition structured along ethnic lines is a prerequisite to ethnic stratification as well. The different ethnic groups must be competing for some common goal, such as power or influence, or a material interest, such as wealth or territory. Lawrence Bobo and Vincent Hutchings propose that competition is driven by self-interest and hostility, and results in inevitable stratification and conflict. [35]\n\"Constructivism\" sees both primordialist and perennialist views as basically flawed, [35] and rejects the notion of ethnicity as a basic human condition. It holds that ethnic groups are only products of human social interaction, maintained only in so far as they are maintained as valid social constructs in societies.\n\"Modernist constructivism\" correlates the emergence of ethnicity with the movement towards nation states beginning in the early modern period. [36] Proponents of this theory, such as Eric Hobsbawm, argue that ethnicity and notions of ethnic pride, such as nationalism, are purely modern inventions, appearing only in the modern period of world history. They hold that prior to this, ethnic homogeneity was not considered an ideal or necessary factor in the forging of large-scale societies.\nEthnicity is an important means by which people may identify with a larger group. Many social scientists, such as anthropologists Fredrik Barth and Eric Wolf, do not consider ethnic identity to be universal. They regard ethnicity as a product of specific kinds of inter-group interactions, rather than an essential quality inherent to human groups. [16] Processes that result in the emergence of such identification are called ethnogenesis. Members of an ethnic group, on the whole, claim cultural continuities over time, although historians and cultural anthropologists have documented that many of the values, practices, and norms that imply continuity with the past are of relatively recent invention. [37]\nEthnic groups differ from other social groups, such as subcultures, interest groups or social classes, because they emerge and change over historical periods (centuries) in a process known as ethnogenesis, a period of several generations of endogamy resulting in common ancestry (which is then sometimes cast in terms of a mythological narrative of a founding figure); ethnic identity is reinforced by reference to \"boundary markers\" - characteristics said to be unique to the group which set it apart from other groups. [38] [39] [40] [41] [42]\nEthnicity theory says that race is a social category and is but one of several factors in determining ethnicity. Some other criteria include: \"religion, language, 'customs,' nationality, and political identification\". [43] This theory was put forth by sociologist Robert E. Park in the 1920s. It is based on the notion of \u201cculture\u201d.\nThis theory was preceded by over a century where biological essentialism was the dominant paradigm on race. Biological essentialism is the belief that white European races are biologically superior and other non-white races are inherently inferior. This view arose as a way to justify slavery of Africans and genocide of the Native Americans in a society which was supposedly founded on freedom for all. This was a notion that developed slowly and came to be a preoccupation of scientists, theologians, and the public. Religious institutions asked questions about whether there had been multiple genesis's (polygenesis) and whether God had created lesser races of men. Many of the foremost scientists of the time took up idea of racial difference. They would inadvertently find that white Europeans were superior. One method that was used was the measurement of cranial capacity. [44]\nMichael Omi and Howard Winant's theory of racial formation directly confronts both ethnicity theory's premises and practices. They argue in Racial Formation in the United States that ethnicity theory was exclusively based on the immigration patterns of a white ethnic population and did not account for the unique experiences of non-whites in this country. [45] While this theory identities different stages in an immigration process \u2013 contact, conflict, struggle, and as the last and best response, assimilation \u2013 it did so only for white ethnic communities. [45] The ethnicity paradigm neglects the ways that race can complicate a community's interactions with basic social and political structures, especially upon contact.\nAnd assimilation \u2013 shedding the particular qualities of a native culture for the purpose of blending in with a host culture \u2013 did not work for some groups as a response to racism and discrimination as it did for others. [45] Moreover, once the legal barriers to achieving equality had been dismantled, the problem of racism became the sole responsibility of already disadvantaged communities. [46] It was assumed that if a Black or Latino community was not 'making it' by the standards that had been set by white ethnics, it was because that community did not hold the right values or beliefs. Or they must be stubbornly resisting dominant norms because they did not want to fit in. Omi and Winant's critique of ethnicity theory explains how looking towards a cultural defect for the source of inequality ignores the \"concrete sociopolitical dynamics within which racial phenomena operate in the U.S.\" [47] In other words, buying into this approach effectively strips us of our ability to critically examine the more structural components of racism and encourages, instead, a \u201cbenign neglect\u201d of social inequality. [47]\nAge grade/ Age set\nIn some cases, especially involving transnational migration, or colonial expansion, ethnicity is linked to nationality. Anthropologists and historians, following the modernist understanding of ethnicity as proposed by Ernest Gellner [48] and Benedict Anderson [49] see nations and nationalism as developing with the rise of the modern state system in the 17th century. They culminated in the rise of \"nation-states\" in which the presumptive boundaries of the nation coincided (or ideally coincided) with state boundaries. Thus, in the West, the notion of ethnicity, like race and nation, developed in the context of European colonial expansion, when mercantilism and capitalism were promoting global movements of populations at the same time that state boundaries were being more clearly and rigidly defined.\nIn the 19th century, modern states generally sought legitimacy through their claim to represent \"nations.\" Nation-states, however, invariably include populations that have been excluded from national life for one reason or another. Members of excluded groups, consequently, will either demand inclusion on the basis of equality, or seek autonomy, sometimes even to the extent of complete political separation in their own nation-state. [50] Under these conditions \u2013 when people moved from one state to another, [51] or one state conquered or colonized peoples beyond its national boundaries \u2013 ethnic groups were formed by people who identified with one nation, but lived in another state.\nMulti-ethnic states can be the result of two opposite events, either the recent creation of state borders at variance with traditional tribal territories, or the recent immigration of ethnic minorities into a former nation state. Examples for the first case are found throughout Africa, where countries created during decolonisation inherited arbitrary colonial borders, but also in European countries such as Belgium or United Kingdom. Examples for the second case are countries such as Germany or the Netherlands, which were relatively ethnically homogeneous when they attained statehood but have received significant immigration during the second half of the 20th century. States such as the United Kingdom, France and Switzerland comprised distinct ethnic groups from their formation and have likewise experienced substantial immigration, resulting in what has been termed \" multicultural\" societies especially in large cities.\nIn recent decades feminist scholars (most notably Nira Yuval-Davis) [52] have drawn attention to the fundamental ways in which women participate in the creation and reproduction of ethnic and national categories. Though these categories are usually discussed as belonging to the public, political sphere, they are upheld within the private, family sphere to a great extent. [53] It is here that women act not just as biological reproducers but also as 'cultural carriers', transmitting knowledge and enforcing behaviours that belong to a specific collectivity. [54] Women also often play a significant symbolic role in conceptions of nation or ethnicity, for example in the notion that 'women and children' constitute the kernel of a nation which must be defended in times of conflict, or in iconic figures such as Britannia or Marianne.\nRace and ethnicity are considered as[ by whom?] related concepts. Ethnicity is used as a matter of cultural identity of a group, often based on shared ancestry, language and cultural traditions, while race is applied as a pseudoscientific grouping, based on physical similarities within groups. Race is a more controversial subject than ethnicity, due to common political use of the term. It is assumed[ by whom?] that, based on power relations, there exist \"racialized ethnicities\" and \"ethnicized races\". Ram\u00f3n Grosfoguel (University of California, Berkeley) argues that 'racial/ethnic identity' is one concept and that concepts of race and ethnicity cannot be used as separate and autonomous categories. [55]\nBefore Weber (1864-1920), race and ethnicity were primarily seen as two aspects of the same thing. Around 1900 and before, the essentialist primordialist understanding of ethnicity predominated: cultural differences between peoples were seen as being the result of inherited traits and tendencies. [56] With Weber's introduction of the idea of ethnicity as a social construct, race and ethnicity became more divided from each other.\nIn 1950 the UNESCO statement, \" The Race Question\", signed by some of the internationally renowned scholars of the time (including Ashley Montagu, Claude L\u00e9vi-Strauss, Gunnar Myrdal, Julian Huxley, etc.), stated:\n\"National, religious, geographic, linguistic and cultural groups do not necessarily coincide with racial groups: and the cultural traits of such groups have no demonstrated genetic connection with racial traits. Because serious errors of this kind are habitually committed when the term 'race' is used in popular parlance, it would be better when speaking of human races to drop the term 'race' altogether and speak of 'ethnic groups'.\" [57]\nThe opposing interests that divide the working classes are further reinforced through appeals to \"racial\" and \"ethnic\" distinctions. Such appeals serve to allocate different categories of workers to rungs on the scale of labor markets, relegating stigmatized populations to the lower levels and insulating the higher echelons from competition from below. Capitalism did not create all the distinctions of ethnicity and race that function to set off categories of workers from one another. It is, nevertheless, the process of labor mobilization under capitalism that imparts to these distinctions their effective values. [58]\nAccording to Wolf, racial categories were constructed and incorporated during the period of European mercantile expansion, and ethnic groupings during the period of capitalist expansion. [59]\nThe term 'ethnic' popularly connotes '[race]' in Britain, only less precisely, and with a lighter value load. In North America, by contrast, '[race]' most commonly means color, and 'ethnics' are the descendants of relatively recent immigrants from non-English-speaking countries. '[Ethnic]' is not a noun in Britain. In effect there are no 'ethnics'; there are only 'ethnic relations'. [60]\nIn the U.S., the OMB defines the concept of race as outlined for the US Census as not \"scientific or anthropological\" and takes into account \"social and cultural characteristics as well as ancestry\", using \"appropriate scientific methodologies\" that are not \"primarily biological or genetic in reference\". [61]\nMany ethnic groups and nations of Africa qualify, although some groups are of a size larger than a tribal society. These mostly originate with the Sahelian kingdoms of the medieval period, such as that of the Akan, deriving from Bonoman (11th century) then the Kingdom of Ashanti (17th century).

        "raw_content": "== Roadmap for webwork development == ====Webservices API==== At the Raleigh code camp a number of us discussed putting together a solid API for the webservices and currently have a [https://github.com/whytheplatypus/WeBWorK-API working draft]. The API is a listing of all the interactions that we want to have with the webwork server (or actually the database). ====Current Webservice==== Separate from the current webwork pages, there is a webservice to serve information from the database in lib/WebworkWebservice.pm and lib/ContentGenerator/instructorXMLHandle.pm and a handful of additional files in /lib/WebworkWebservice. This webservice mainly serves some of the new tools (Homework Manager, Classlist Manager and with a new version of the LibBrowser). The idea would be to deprecate this webservice (see RESTful webservice below). ====RESTful Webservice==== Most current webservices run what is called a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer RESTful service]. In short, it's a common way to send and request information from a webserver. There are many reasons for using RESTful webservice, but the best is that this will be based on the API listed above. Once we have a solid API, we can go about designing the backend. The current webservice is not RESTful. A near-term goal will be to create such a webservice in perl, possibly using [http://www.perldancer.org/ Perl Dancer], [http://www.catalystframework.org/ Catalyst] or [http://search.cpan.org/~jeteve/Apache2-REST-0.07/lib/Apache2/REST.pm Apache2::REST]. Some quick research shows Perl Dancer may be the way to go for this. The reason for using a perl webservice is that it will be the quickest way to develop such a webservice since the rest of the codebase is in perl. A longer term goal will be to write non-perl RESTful webservices. These may include a [http://node.js node.js] service or any other type of back end. More of this to follow. ====Switching the core database==== Another current trend in webservices is that of a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NoSQL NoSQL] database, which store flexible documents. This is in contrast to a SQL (or relational) database in which everything needs to be stored as a table. The flexibility of a NoSQL database will be that data structures can be nested. For example, A ProblemSet can store information about the problem as well as an array of users that set is assigned for. The users can also be nested if need be. Another advantage to a NoSQL database is that the documents are injected and retrieved via JSON (which is the standard interchange format for objects on the web) and no conversion is necessary. This leads to clearer code on the server side. Some common NoSQL databases that are being used are [http://www.mongodb.org/ MongoDB] and [http://couchdb.apache.org/ CouchDB]. ====Changing the Webwork UI==== In addition to the backend, there has been progress on the Webwork UI. The goal of the new Webwork tools are to modernize and simplify the interface. These tools use [backbonejs.com Backbone] to help with 1) separating the data from the view (in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model%E2%80%93view%E2%80%93controller MVC] style) and 2) synching the data on the client with that on the server. Backbone was designed to interact with a server in a RESTful manner, and although we currently don't have such a webservice, there are ways to manage.

A root canal is nothing to be worried about, it is however extremely important in the saving of your tooth!\nThere is no reason for concern if you require a root canal. Endodontics, also known as root canal therapy, refers to a filling of the root structure of your tooth. This is usually required as a result of trauma to the tooth or significant decay that involves the nerve or pulp of your tooth.\nDuring an endodontic procedure, the tooth is cleaned, filled and restored to its original shape and size. Generally, a crown is placed over the tooth to protect it from further problems. This crown will protect your tooth for years to come, and the endodontic treatment allows your tooth to survive.\nSo do not be concerned if Dr. Pizzino communicates that you require a root canal. Root Canal Therapy is quite common and a procedure that Dr. Pizzino has performed on so many occasions.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Labor\u2019s Defiant Lady: Remembering Mother Jones\n100 Years Ago We Thought Very Differently About The Pope \u2192\nMomentum, support, and enthusiasm for the presidential campaign of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders continue to grow daily. What many laughed at just a few months ago now has roots deep enough to sustain a formidable bid for the Democratic Party nomination for president in 2016. Now may be just the right time to reflect on the man who originally had the foresight and vision to know that this moment was possible.\nWhat now seems as inevitable was but a pipe dream to a handful of people in early 2014. But one of those people happened to be Tim Carpenter, the now deceased founder of Progressive Democrats of America (PDA). It is not a stretch of the imagination to say that without Tim Carpenter there simply would not be Bernie 2016. In hindsight, it\u2019s as though Tim Carpenter knew that one of his last efforts just might be the biggest and best yet of all the incredible things he had done in an all too brief life.\nFor anyone who had the pleasure of meeting, knowing, or working with Tim Carpenter, they knew instantly when they met him that he was a one-in-a-million; a saint walking the earth. Educated by the Jesuits in the post-Vatican II era, Tim took seriously the social justice gospel and from it, began to chart the course of his life.\nI had the pleasure of meeting Tim Carpenter at a Labor Campaign for Single Payer conference in 2013 at which time I presented him a copy of my book: Wisdom Of Progressive Voices.\nI had the pleasure of meeting Tim at a Labor Campaign for Single Payer conference in Chicago in January 2013. That led to this feature I wrote on Tim and PDA, in which Tim took time from his 25-hour-a-day schedule to articulate the work of PDA and its vision of organizing a community of activists willing to do the work to build a passionate and progressive government. For a more in-depth look at this incredible man and his work with PDA we invite you to click here. Intelligence, good-humor, motivated, unceasing. Words that came to life within 5 minutes of having met Tim.\nBelieving the impossible was possible is what motivated Tim Carpenter and his work with PDA. The little engine that could, that was Tim. Healthcare not warfare; clean and transparent elections; stopping voter suppression; ending corporate rule. Pick any of the impossible issues facing us today and Tim was there fighting the good fight. But it was on the eve of PDA\u2019s 10-year anniversary celebration set for May 2014 that Tim, who had struggled with health issues his entire life, reached for the stars with one of his boldest ideas yet.\nIn spring 2014 with Carpenter\u2019s health rapidly failing, he began a PDA-led drive with CredoMobile to garner 25,000 signatures urging Sen. Sanders to run for President in 2016 as a Democrat. The signatures would be presented to Sanders, the scheduled keynote speaker at the PDA 10-year anniversary celebration. Click here to see the original petition.\n\u201cTim was the one who got Bernie to come speak at PDA\u2019s 10-year anniversary, which we turned into the first \u201cRun Bernie Run\u201d event,\u201d remembered Steve Cobble, co-founder of PDA. \u201cIn his last few days, Tim was still working the phones (for support for Bernie). There was no one like him.\u201d\n\u201cThe Valley Advocate,\u201d the Northampton, MA hometown paper of Tim Carpenter provided a great synopsis of the Sanders drive in a March 2014 edition.\nAnd so it officially began \u2014 Run Bernie Run (As A Democrat) \u2014 with PDA out in front with online petitions, and signature gatherings and grass roots organizing. What else would one expect from PDA and Tim Carpenter?\nAnd then, just days before the 10-year anniversary celebration scheduled for Northampton on May 10, 2014, the sad news emerged. Tim Carpenter succumbed to his long battle with cancer on April 28. In a moving tribute to Carpenter, The Nation Magazine\u2019s John Nichols wrote:\nNot many hours before I learned that he had passed, Tim was on the phone with me, running through the latest numbers from a national petition drive he and PDA had organized to urge Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders to seek the presidency. They were over 10,500. A few hours after the call, he e-mailed me, with more numbers. They were over 11,000. That was typical Tim. His enthusiasm for politics was immeasurable, and infectious.\nWhat better tribute to Tim then to forge on with the \u201ccelebration\u201d and the presentation of signatures to Sen. Sanders, the keynote speaker that day in 2014. Jim Hightower, in his introduction of Bernie that day, said he thought of Bernie Sanders as a Tim Carpenter with a Bronx accent and a Senate seat\u2026and then went on to introduce Sanders to the crowd as \u201cour candidate for President in 2016.\u201d\nSo as the Bernie bandwagon continues to rightfully and joyfully grow beyond most people\u2019s wildest dreams, it\u2019s also a time to remember that no movement \u201cjust happens.\u201d Now, with thousands of volunteers, paid staff members, and other organizations coalescing to support Bernie 2016, let\u2019s remember that somewhere there were seeds planted, ideas shared, and those who had the courage to fight for an idea that seemed impossible at the time.\nOr as Tim Carpenter told us in 2013, \u201cAt the end of the day it\u2019s going to be about the journey. Most of the work we\u2019re doing, we\u2019re not going to see the end results in our lifetime. But it\u2019s important that we reach those markers and celebrate the victories like passing a bill, or getting more co-sponsors to a bill. It\u2019s by pulling together that we have those major victories\u2026\u201d\nIt\u2019s hard for anyone who knew Tim Carpenter not to have a melancholy moment when they see overflow crowds of 27,000 people in Los Angeles or standing room only at town halls in Iowa and South Carolina. They ache inside \u2014 wishing he could be there to see this. But they also grin just a bit knowing that Tim\u2019s smiling at them from somewhere saying, \u201cSee, I told you so\u2026.isn\u2019t this fun\u2026now let\u2019s go finish the job. Hugs.\u201d\nFor the full Bernie Sanders speech at the PDA 10-year anniversary conference in 2014 see below.\nThis entry was posted in Democracy, Democratic Progressive Caucus, The Progressive Connection, Thoughts on Life and tagged Bernie Sanders, Bernie Sanders 2016, PDA, Tim Carpenter.

        "raw_content": "Where the hell has Lea been?\nOh, did you miss me?\nI've become addicted to this stupid game, Mobsters. And if that isn't bad enough...\nI've found a chat room full of other Mobster addicts. Oh yeah, memories of days gone by when I was hours and hours on AOL.\nI vaccumed half the hallway, till the belt on the vaccum broke for the 12th time AGAIN!!! And instead of putting on another belt (which is a bitch to do)I came to my computer and chatted online in the chat room for 6 hours. 6 HOURS. Don't ask me what I spoke about, because I have no clue.\nWhat else didn't I do..\nPut my new weight bench together. Work out on the Wii. Clean the kitchen. Take a shower.. you get the idea, right? Thought so.\nI'm still dealing with Chances rages, though the last few days have been pleasant enough. He even took out the trash, the first time I asked him to today.\nTess on the other hand, while she's a good kid, there are things she needs to do to be a responsible adult (since she insists she is an adult, the day she turned 18)and for the life of me, I cannot get her to do these things..\nStudy for the drivers exam that she has failed 6 times.\nCall FAFSA and check to see about grants for college.\nCall the college and find out when she is to register.\nCall the college and also find out about grants she may be eligible for.\nClean the damn cat box every day so I don't have to smell it. (I throw up when I clean it and nearly throw up just smelling it)\nand the worse thing..\nHOUSETRAIN HER FUCKING PUPPY.\nI refuse to housetrain it. It's her dog. My two are housetrained, though they are also large and outside most the time (till it's too hot here, since one is a siberian husky, a snow dog and the other is siberian husky/border collie mix, then they will be in the house more than out, but still they are housetrained)\nYes, I have threatened to get rid of her dog, though it breaks my heart, it IS being neglected, unless I take it out of her room and let it follow me around the house, but the damn thing shits in my living room. After threatening her one last time, to her credit, she has been picking up the shit right away and spraying vinegar/water to take away the smell, but dammit, that dog should be going outside and she is too lazy to sit out there for 10 minutes while it does it's business. Every once in a while I will take it outside, because I feel bad for her, locked in Tessa's room all day, but I can't always do this, as I am not always home either... it's a viscous cycle.\nAnd one last thing.. ok, two last things....\nI colored my hair dark. No, you can't see it. I have culture shock everytime I look at it and am thinking of putting some blond highlights in it.\nI'm thinking about doing away with Monday Giveaway, since I seem to not be able to send out the winnings.. this week it's mostly because I am broke that they haven't gone out yet... though I do have to go to Walmart tomorrow, after the gas guy comes sometime (it's an all day appointment, they shut my gas off yesterday for non payment, I just forgot to pay it) so maybe I will remember to pick up the packing stuff I need to send out the winnings...\nSometimes, I'm such a loser.\nLabels: children, darker hair, loser, rage, winnings\nVisit Monday Giveaway for my latest giveaway.\nIt's real cute!\nWordle!!! And some other random stuff...\nJoe at Joe, in and around Las Vegas sent me my new Wordle. Thanks Joe! I love these Wordle things, they are so cool!\nThanks again Joe! I'm going to try to do one of these each month. I can't capture them, but Joe can, so hopefully he'll capture mine each month!!\nNew Monday Giveaway coming tomorrow. Check it out tomorrow evening (hopefully I can get it up by then) at Monday Giveaway.\nWinnings from previous Monday Giveaways should be going out this week too, hopefully life doesn't get in the way AGAIN! I hate that it's taken me so long to get these out to my readers, makes me feel like shit.\nBeen entering some contests lately, I think I am going to make a special page just for he contests that I've been entering... actually I think I might even have one already.\nDoes anyone know how to make it so that there is a permanent \"saying\" at the top of each of my posts? So I don't have to type it out each time? Like to check out Monday Giveaways? If so, please either leave a comment on how to do it, or feel free to email me at wisprnsoul@cox.net (wisprnsoul at cox dot net)\nLabels: joe in and around las vegas, monday giveaway, new blog for contests, permanent quotes, wordle\nThere are many forms of abuse. I've been on the receiving end of all of them. Eventually, you can read some of my story when it is published on Violence Unsilenced. The button for it is over there -----> and there are 2 new stories each week, I'm in line somewhere... Don't wait for my story, go there and read others, they are heartbreaking.\nTimmy drinks and gets verbally abusive. I walk away. When Timmy doesn't drink he's a gentleman, kind, considerate etc. This is ultimately the reason I decided that our relationship would not go any further than it is now and I've been doing some soul searching this week, trying to decide if I should walk away completely or not. He always apologizes, but that just doesn't work for me. I won't give him an ultimatium, me or the drink, but what I will do and have begun to do, is distance myself from him. I no longer call him, though he calls me everyday more than once. Sometimes I answer, sometimes I don't. It's how \"I\" am dealing with it right now. One thing, he hasn't drank all week, I haven't asked why, because I don't care why, only that for the past week he hasn't drank - and still I'm keeping myself at a distance.\nThe boy.. Perhaps it is time to give you their names. My youngest child, my 13 year old is called Chance (yes, that is his name). My daughter, her name is Tessa. And my oldest boy, who will be making me a grandma soon, is Morgan. My DIL is Amanda. There, now it seems more personal I guess.\nChance, is difficult at best. Much of this can be blamed on me. Who else is to be blamed? His father has never been in his life and when he was born I had made a conscious desicion not to date till the kids were older. I do not believe in bringing men in and out of a childs life. So, other than my father, who's really been sick the better part of Chances life (his illness didn't just happen recently, his heart has been giving him trouble since his first triple bypass at age 40)Dad really hasn't been able to be there for him, as a male role model or even a grandfather, as he was to both Tess and Morgan when they were little. (Though admittedly Tess is and always has been his favorite)\nWhile I say Chance is a difficult child, he isn't a \"bad\" child, though he makes some bad choices. He doesn't smoke, do drugs, have sex nothing like that (which I was doing all of those things at his age). He's passionate about skateboarding and baseball (playing not watching).\nChance doesn't hit me, but he hits walls. He steals from me and his sister. He's verbally abusive to his sister, calling her fat and other things that I won't repeat here. But when it comes to me, he is even more viscious. Yet, nothing adds up. If I am sick, he is all over me, what can I do for you, are you hungry, do you want me to go to the store and really is a little caretaker...\nBut, when I try to discipline him, he rages. \"I hate you\" \"Fuck you\" \"You're a shitty mom\" and those are the mild things he says. He makes me cry. He lies to me. Often times if I am on the phone he will act out and the person on the other end is flabergasted by the way he speaks to me. I wouldn't let a man I was dating/married to, speak to me the way Chance speaks to me, yet I haven't a clue what to do about this. Glen has been here at the house when Chance acts out and he has said something to Chance, but he doesn't listen not to Glen, not to me. Both Glen and Timmy have told me that they will kick his ass, this usually comes from hearing me cry and wondering where I went wrong. But, I don't hit my kids. I HAVE, but I don't like to do it and I don't think I would let anyone else do it.\nReading this back, it all just seems like he's a typical 13 year old boy, but he's not. I don't seem to be able to articulate his true character, or at least the abusive part. Oh, he's also been lighting fires in the backyard, spits on the walls (spits juice, milk, koolaid things like that so he can watch it run down the wall). He has chores that he has had for 8 years now, yet I still have to tell him to do them and then he gets verbally abusive towards me for that. I end up doing the chores (no he does not get an allowance). Last month I decided not to do Chances chores OR Tessa's chores (cause yep, I have to tell her every night too)for 3 weeks I did nothing but vacuum when I could get it to work...\nMy house. was. disgusting. There was piles of trash all over the kitchen and living room. Not one clean dish or silverware in the house, nor any clean pots or pans. I hid in my room with the door shut, I couldn't stand it... finally, I spent almost a week cleaning the front part of the house.\nIf I had the money, I would send him to Military school. He wants to live with his grandfather, but my father is not healthy enough to take care of him and he won't be for a long time now.\nI just don't know what to do with him and it makes me so sad. I am so afraid that he is going to grow up and be abusive to his girlfriends/wife... not physically, he has never raised a hand to me, that would be the final straw for me, it would be then that I would have to beat him to a pulp.. as much as I hate violence, I could not stand for him to raise his hand to me.\nI've said it before. I don't know how to raise a boy. I try to teach him that women are to be respected, this is a BIG thing for me. One of the most important lessons that I think I could and SHOULD teach him. But, somewhere I am going wrong and for the life of me, I cannot figure out what it is that I am not doing right.\nI know that I am just so very tired of it all, but I don't want to give up on him. He's my boy. My baby. One of the three love of my lifes. I pray every night for guidence, to be shown the way to do this, to teach him right, I love him so much, it just hurts so much.\nI just do not know what to do anymore.\nLabels: abuse, children, hurt, love, raising a good boy\nMy own flesh and blood..\nI wonder why I attract abusive men or why I put up with it for the short time (if even THAT amount of time) that I do. I can hold my own, I know the signs and I sure as hell KNOW how to leave rather than wait for it to get worse because it will and all the excuses in the world won't make it OK,. And see I know how to leave the \"him\" currently in my life, but what do I do when it's my own flesh and blood, my baby, my beautiful 13 year old son, who I would lay my life down for.\nLabels: abuse, the boy, when is enough enough",

        "raw_content": "Epic/SME Records\nLandspeed/Traffic\nEric B., Gang Starr, Gang Starr Foundation, Tha Trademarc, Tech N9ne, John Cena, Big Scoob\nFreddie Foxxx at Myspace\nJames Campbell, (born March 27, 1969), better known by his stage names Freddie Foxxx and Bumpy Knuckles, is an American rapper and music producer from Long Island, New York.[1]\nMixtapes 2.2\nAppearances 2.3\nFoxxx got his start rapping in the early 1980s.\nIn 1986, he recorded \"You Gotta Come Out Fresh / Handling Things\" as a member of the Supreme Force (other members were Cool Cee and Easy E) on NIA Records. On this occasion he rapped under the alias Freddie C. Later, in 1986, he was slated to meet with producer Eric B. who was searching for an MC to pair up with. Foxxx missed the meeting, and Eric B. ended up pairing up with MC Rakim and forming the group Eric B. and Rakim.\nDespite this, Foxxx's first LP, Freddie Foxxx Is Here was produced entirely by Eric B. and himself and released in (1989) through MCA Records. He soon parted ways with the label and became a member of Queen Latifah's Flavor Unit establishment.[2] In 1993, only promo copies of his second album, Crazy Like A Foxxx, were circulated when Epic Records decided to shelve it.[2]\nFoxxx then began to be known more for his cameos on songs by Boogie Down Productions, Naughty By Nature, M.O.P., O.C. and, most notably, his appearance on Gang Starr's The Militia from their Moment of Truth album (1998). The song was issued as a single, building a buzz for Foxxx and helping him to prep for his next full-length release.[2]\nThis time around he applied the lessons he'd learned from previous experiences with major record labels, and went the independent route. The LP featured production from hip hop heavyweights DJ Premier, Pete Rock and The Alchemist. The members of M.O.P. provided the album's only cameo.\nAfter the success of Industry Shakedown, Foxxx released his third official album, The Konexion (2003) via Barely Breaking Even. A less commercially successful affair, the album was nevertheless faithful to its predecessor in terms of style and content and featured contributions from frequent collaborator DJ Premier and DJ Clark Kent.\nFoxxx made significant contributions to the WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006 soundtrack. He contributed two songs, and made a guest appearance on another song. He also produced all of the hip hop songs. He also appeared on John Cena's WWE released album You Can't See Me.[2]\nIn 2006, he released a mixtape called Street Triumph, in anticipation of his fifth album, Amerikkan Black Man.\nRecently, his previously unreleased album Crazy Like a Foxxx was officially released on July 29, 2008 on Fat Beats Records.[2]\n1989: Freddie Foxxx Is Here (MCA Records)\n1994: Crazy Like a Foxxx (Fat Beats Records)\n2000: Industry Shakedown (Landspeed Records)\n2003: The Konexion (BBE)\n2008: Crazy Like a Foxxx (Official Re-Release) (Fat Beats Records)\n2010: Music From The Man Vol.1 (with Jesse West)\n2011: Royalty Check (with KRS-One)\n2011: Lyrical Workout (with Statik Selektah)\n2012: The Kolexxxion (with DJ Premier)[3] #US 195 #US R&B 31 #US Rap 22 #US Independent 33\n2012: Ambition (with Statik Selektah)[4]\n2006: Amerikkkan Black Man (Unreleased)\n2006: Street Triumph Mixxxtape (Fat Beats Records)\n2006: Krupt Mob\n2007: Krupt Mob Vol.2\n2008: The OG Vol.1: Get Rich or Kill Tryin'\n2009: The OG Vol.2: Realmatic\n2011: \"Leaks Vol.1\"\n1986: \"You Gotta Come Out Fresh\"/\"Handling Things\" 12\" release by Supreme Force (NIA Records) - No Album\n1990: \"Money in the Bank\" (from the Kool G Rap & DJ Polo album Wanted:Dead or Alive)\n1991: \"Heal Yourself\" (from the H.E.A.L.

        "title": "Europe: A season's overview \u2013 CNN World Sport - CNN.com Blogs",
        "raw_content": "Europe: A season's overview\nSo another fantastic season of football in Europe comes to a close, and now the excitement is over there is time for reflection and analysis before things kick off again in a few month's time. Who stood out among the myriad of stars fighting for silverware across the continent \u2013 well here are my thoughts:\nThe all-action Gerrard had a vintage season for Liverpool.\nPlayer of the year \u2013 Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United)\nThe Serbian international matured into one of the best defenders in the world during Manchester United's title-winning campaign. The 27-year-old provided the muscle in a back line which proved watertight for much of the season. Vidic led United to a streak of 14 consecutive clean sheets. He also scored four goals, some of them crucial to his team's success in the league.\nHonorable mention \u2013 Steven Gerrard (Liverpool)\nThe league's third top scorer with 16 goals and nearly single-handedly kept Liverpool in the title race until the final weeks of the season. Playing further up the field, he provided scoring opportunities to Fernando Torres and Dirk Kuyt who both scored over 10 goals in the campaign. England's best all-round player had probably his best season to date.\nPlayer of the year \u2013 Leo Messi (Barcelona)\nYou could easily run out of superlatives trying to describe Messi's performances in La Liga this season. The tiny Argentine was simply breathtaking, mesmerizing opponents' defences with his magical dribbling skills, and scoring goals of all shapes and sizes. His finishing was the skill which he improved the most in the last campaign as he tallied an impressive 23 league goals.\nHonorable mention \u2013 Diego Forlan (Atletico Madrid)\nThe European Golden Boot winner was a constant threat to goalkeepers all across Spain this season and finished with 32 goals in 33 appearances for Atletico Madrid. One of the hardest working strikers around, the 30 year-old Uruguayan international made the most of the goalscoring opportunities presented to him by Kun Aguero and Maxi Rodriguez.\nPlayer of the year \u2013 Esteban Cambiasso (Inter Milan)\nThe heart and soul of an Internazionale side that dominated the Serie A. Esteban Cambiasso was ever present in the Nerazzuri midfield this season and was the first name on the team sheet for manager Jose Mourinho as his tough tackling and intelligent ball distribution made him indispensable. The 28-year-old Argentine international also pitched in with four goals during a stellar campaign.\nHonorable mention \u2013 Diego Milito (Genoa)\nTo score 24 goals in the Serie A is tough, but to do it for a non-championship contender is even tougher, but that's what Il Principe accomplished this season. Despite being overtaken at the top of the goalscoring chart by Zlatan Ibrahimovic on the last day of the campaign Milito still earned praise from all corners of Italy for his spirited performances and deadly finishes. Impressed 'The Special One' who bought him for Inter next season.\nPlayer of the year \u2013 Grafite (Wolfsburg)\nWolfsburg won their first ever league title thanks in large part to the goalscoring exploits of this Brazilian striker. An incredible 28 goals in 25 games from a late bloomer who had never scored more than 20 goals in a season in the top flight of any league before. He will be remembered this year for a fantastic solo goal against Bayern Munich in a 5-1 demolition of the Bavarian giants.\nHonorable mention \u2013 Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich)\nThe silver lining in a dark cloud for Bayern this season. The Frenchman was just unstoppable and assisted more goals than any other player this season. His own tally wasn't bad either as the 26-year-old winger finished with nine goals. If it weren't for Ribery, Bayern could have easily finished outside the top four.\nFrench First Division\nPlayer of the year \u2013 Yoan Gourcuff (Bordeaux)\nProved he is a world-class player with a series of fantastic performances in France as he led Bordeaux to their first title since 1999. He was the maestro of a side who won the last 11 games of the season to clinch the league trophy on the last day of the campaign. Gourcuff, who was on loan from AC Milan, scored a career-best 12 goals and is one of the brightest young stars in European football at 22 years of age.\nHonorable mention \u2013 Bakary Kone (Olympique Marseille)\nOne of the fastest players on the planet, the Senegal international gave Olympique Marseille a new dimension following his signing from Nice. The 27-year-old winger terrorized defenders all season long, setting up heaps of goals and getting on the score sheet nine times himself.\nPep Guardiola \u2013 A perfect season for the rookie coach who in his first season in professional management won an unprecedented treble \u2013 The Spanish League, Spanish Cup and Champions League. As impressive as the trophy haul was the way they achieved it, playing free flowing attacking football during most of the season. They finished their league campaign with a +70 goal average and were also the top scorers in the Champions League.\nMost disappointing coach of the Year\nJurgen Klinsmann \u2013 He had to be relieved of his duties in the final sprint for the Bundesliga title race. Worse than their performances in Germany was their capitulation against Barcelona at the Camp Nou. It is inadmissible to concede four goals in a half, even against the almighty European Champions. The fact he failed to motivate a star-studded dressing room means it will be a while before he gets another chance at a top club in Europe.\nPosted by CNN Sport, CNN Sports Anchor, Pedro Pinto\nThese lists always crack me up.\nVidic is certainly a very good defender, but he was exposed pretty often too. If you're going to put his name in context of the clean sheets, why not choose van der Sar?\nAnd Gerrard was certainly terrific, but \"single-handedly\"?!?!?! What absurdity. Most Liverpool supporters tip Alonso as player of the year, by the by.\nSo i think another fantastic season of football in Europe. I think God helps those who are honest.\nctoy11\nGreat work, always good to see football represented on the big American websites/publications.\nI write/draw a popular football comic strip called Studs Up (www.studs-up.com). I'm trying to express football passion, humour and culture in a way that isn't being done right now and if you get a chance to take a look, I'd love to hear what you think.\n(If you need it, you can find my contact email address on the website)\nGood analysis, I think u almost got it all right though I reserve my thoughts and comments on Vidic. Gd Job\nSophie Brooke\nmy apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this question \u2013 but I was just interested in what theme you are using for this site? I really like it. Keep up the great work \ud83d\ude42",

        "title": "Left Out: Labor Demand and the Supply Profile",
        "raw_content": "by Robert Wendell Feb 18, 2014 - 7:17am\nAlthough the title of this article highlights the obvious current gap between labor supply and demand, equally if not more important is the somewhat less obvious mismatch between the profiles of labor demand and that of its available supply. We have plenty of jobs that too few are qualified to supply with their labor. There was a book around by the late 1970s that was already predicting that the information technology revolution was going to make much labor obsolete. The book noted that nothing was being done in terms of the education and training urgently needed to forestall the otherwise inevitable future mismatch.\nOur failure to pay any attention to this is certainly a large chunk of what is responsible for the current unemployment, underemployment, and just plain surrender to despair in finding suitable work. The lack of foresight and resulting lack of political will to do anything about it has created a mess. Many in industry knew, but this was apparently not collectively important enough to industry, since their lack of demand for lower skilled labor was not nearly as large or immediate a liability for them as it was and still remains for labor. They knew that automation was destined to fill the gap.\nThe intention here is not to discuss job displacement from immigration, outsourcing to India and other countries, the calculated emasculation of bargaining power for labor, or related problems. These are valid issues, but they lie outside the scope of this article. Quite simply, too many have too few usable skills to find work and either already are, or destined to unwillingly become, social drone bees. We could have foreseen this. Some did and too few listened.\nAround 1980 I was predicting that the noticeably waning quality of education was going to create a private industrial response to close this impending gap. My free market advocacy felt that this was going to be a positive thing. I was right about the increasingly commercialized education aspect, but wrong about it doing much to fill this otherwise inevitable gap. Much of the marketing in commercial education consists only of selling intellectual snake oil and profiting handsomely on the student loans their useless education disallows the students to pay back. Yes, these commercial education institutes are indeed functioning on Ayn Rand's self-interest paradigm, too. Ironically, these same people are probably business oriented conservatives who are disdainful of those dependent on the government while they profit from government loans to their students.\nAyn Rand's noble scenarios and her entire philosophy seem to unwittingly assume ideal people and situations that don't exist in any comprehensive sense in the real world. Current economic theory assumes \"rational self-interest\" right in line with Rand's position. Research clearly shows that human beings often fail to act with rational self-interest as a result of a variety of psychological and emotional factors. Ultimately, this kind of idealism is the flaw in Marxist thinking on the opposite end of the spectrum. Similar idealism is also the flaw in anarchist thinking.\nOn the other hand, our founders were realists who implemented checks and balances intended to countermand overly idealistic assumptions. In contrast, Ayn Rand's view was essentially that of people functioning ideally in economic terms, working in an environment of relative economic anarchy. Her ideas would work as described only if we assume that ideal people and efficient markets are virtually universal throughout an economy, along with honest government free of conflicts of interest.\nAlthough we currently have plenty of regulations, the political influence of industrial lobbies has dictated too many of them. The sad result is a complex, twisted tangle of regulatory red tape too often combined with ludicrous favoritism toward specific interests. We need a governmental and economic structure that does not depend on any kind of idealism; that works in the real, practical world and that is also relatively free of the conflicts of interest undue financial and political influence create. Our founders tried to do that, but it has been subverted by all kinds of less than virtuous selfishness as well as by a great deal of na\u00efve idealism.\nThe scientists who in the sixties were predicting technology would hand us a twenty-hour work week in a few decades failed to factor in short-term profit seeking and the lack of political will in the most politically influential sphere, which was and is naturally constituted mainly of those with the most financial clout. Most of the rest of us were just plain ignorant of the impending realities. It is not too much of a generalization, given the historical evidence, to state that industry has always needed some massive popular uptick in political will to motivate them to treat labor well enough even for their own long term business interests, let alone those of the economy as a whole.\nThe all too typical corporate mindset is intrinsically short-sighted. These businesses are held captive by their need to keep their quarterly reports looking good for pension fund investors, shareholders, etc. Everyone working in their own interests is natural and inevitable, as Ayn Rand was so fond of pointing out. But contrary to her philosophy, when the economic incentives are intrinsically near-sighted it often fails to actually work in the overall best interests of society. In the long term this fails to work nearly as well as it could have even for the top rungs of the financial and political ladder.\nAmong far too many of those fortunate ones somewhat better trained or educated there is a conspicuous lack of any compassion for those left out of the current picture. This is especially so among those from similar social classes in which they traditionally competed with each other for work. The more fortunate exhibit an overweening pride, a vainglorious basking in their success as contrasted with those less fortunate. This tends to show up as disdain for the latter and characterization of them as lazy, dependent people who just want a government handout. Some of us accuse them of eating up our hard-earned money with taxes to pay for unemployment insurance, welfare, food stamps, Medicare, etc. But as even Ayn Rand might have guessed, self-interest also motivates the less fortunate enough to desire their own survival. After all, industry is certainly not taking care of that.\nThe twenty-hour work week scenario predicted in the sixties could never have worked unless the general population was educated or trained to handle the more highly skilled jobs a highly technical economy demands. It also would have required a corporate world willing to share with those increased numbers who had acquired the necessary skills the results of essentially having doubled productivity. These factors would have combined to produce a broader labor base working fewer hours as logically predicted, were it not for Rand's savvy but not always so virtuous selfishness.\nOf course, that would have meant lower profits for industry. As it is, only industry is profiting from the higher productivity, enormously so, while those who have enough skills to find work are not paid anything that remotely corresponds historically with their level of productivity. Too many of the rest languish in despair and have to depend at least to some degree on the government for their survival. Meanwhile, the corporate political lackeys in government want to lower taxes on those at the top. God forbid that anyone should even suggest raising them!\nNow here is some real nitty-gritty data from way down in the trenches. No one can support a decent standard of living today cleaning toilets. The lack of higher level skills in a good chunk of the population limits them to physical labor that pays little if anything above that level. More than one in five adults in the U.S. reads below the fifth grade level!* The statistics are lamentable indeed:\nPercent of U.S. adults who can't read: 14 %\nNumber of U.S. adults who can't read: 32 Million\n*Percent of U.S. adults who read below a 5th grade level: 21 %\nPercent of prison inmates who can't read: 63 %\nPercent of high school graduates who can't read: 19 %\n(Click here for the source.)\nThe current labor supply and demand mismatch was not only predictable, but actually predicted by those with a little knowledge, intelligence, and insight. However, the mismatch was inevitable when we consider the lack of such knowledge, intelligence, and insight in much of the voting population at all social levels. This is not to mention the subversion of our political system with the complicity of too many politically na\u00efve citizens, their often resulting complacence, or the ironically passionate, unwitting support of others for politicians working against their very supporters' interests.\nWe especially fail to see in most hard right conservatives any understanding or compassion for the less fortunate. Those who publicly manifest these cold attitudes usually fail to show any of the positive characteristics that would have foreseen this or even the hindsight today that should clearly tell us what has happened and why. We as a people need to collectively wake up to these realities with a strong desire to do something about them.\nWe can do this on an individual, creative level as some are already. We can also do it by exhibiting and exerting our political will loudly and clearly. We have infrastructure needs in this country with dire consequences looming if we fail to take care of them. The government needs to institute work programs that address these needs and that are integrated with training for skills needed in the current job market.\nSince some of us seem bound to drive our economy further and further toward third-world status, the government also needs to provide a program that is something like a domestic equivalent of the Peace Corps. Such a program could serve the homeless and others living in abject poverty with little hope of improvement without such help, help that would empower them and enable self-sufficiency. Together we can make the right things happen as a practical expression of our sincere empathy and compassion for all those less fortunate.\nIn the bargain this would express in practical, productive terms our genuine gratitude for the opportunities life has granted us\u2026something much more significant than a mere vacuous indulgence in the vanity of praise and thanks for our own good fortune. Oh, and by the way, it is perfectly alright to have a bleeding heart, whether conservative, liberal, or libertarian, as long as we do not remain satisfied to just sit still and bleed.\nJoF, I read a good chunk of The Virtue of Selfishness decades ago. I had no quarrel with a lot of it. Since then, most of my understanding of her philosophy has just been the elaboration of what I had read through interaction with those who espouse her ideas. Her concept of rational self-interest has a strong element of truth in it to be sure. However, I don't believe that collectively we can depend on rational self-interest to work without some kind of policing of irrational self-interest, including lack of corporate incentives to respect human interests, general unethical business behaviors, and outright criminality. Our arms industry, for example, makes roughly ten times as much profit during war than in peace. They have strong lobbying organization. I believe Vietnam and Iraq and some of what is going on now are gratuitous wars that are a consequence of this. If that is rational self-interest at work and we have nothing to countermand it, you can have it. The problem is that if you have it, I have to swallow it, too.\nBob - nice article. If anything has been evident over the past 50 years of federal government intervention in education it is that the following resulted:\n1) education quality is lowered and focused on stupid initiatives that do little to help our kids be successful\n2) due to government subsidies, higher education has gotten ridiculously expensive - every time the government adds a subsidy/grant/loan program, education institutions jack up the cost of education\n3) local innovation and success is squashed by federal oversight - teachers and schools need to be free to innovate and find new ways to get kids motivated and learning\n4) Giving parents the freedom to send their kids to any school (Vouchers) has forced lousy public schools and complacent teacher's union officials (NOT the teachers - I have the greatest admiration for 95% of them) to take actions in the kid's interests, not theirs.\n\"Her (Ayn Rand) ideas would work as described only if we assume that ideal people and efficient markets are virtually universal throughout an economy, along with honest government free of conflicts of interest.\"\nWhy do keep insisting on mixing up crook's motivations with \"rational self-interest\"? It is NOT rational to cheat a large number of people because you will eventually be caught and either jailed for fraud or run out of town on a rail.\nAgain, I have read almost everything Rand has written and NOWHERE does she postulate or specify any \"conditions\" for a Free Market other than non-interference. You admit that you have not studied Rand's works so please refrain from giving \"facts and opinions\" on a topic you aren't qualified to.\nCarole McKee Added Feb 18, 2014 - 12:01pm\nRobert--This is a really good article--all mostly true. I applaud your insight. he comments from others are equally good.\n\"I believe Vietnam and Iraq and some of what is going on now are gratuitous wars that are a consequence of this. If that is rational self-interest at work and we have nothing to countermand it, you can have it.\"\nis a great example of what happens when the Constitution is ignored/violated and the US goes to war without a formal declaration of war. It is an usurping of power by the executive branch combined with a weak-kneed congress and a comatose Supreme Court. I think the Supreme Court should stop hearing cases about abortion, gay rights, and any topic NOT in the purview of the federal government and start to do its primary duty - make sure that legislation and executive orders are Constitutional.\nI'm also tired of slimy Atty Gen's that when asked about the President's legal authority in writing executive orders, they respond \"every President did it\". That's a cop-out, not a straight answer. We are turning our elected representatives into de facto \"Rulers\" and arming them sophisticated intelligence gathering authority and weapons.\nThank you, Debra! In one of my many recent comments under the article The Case for Market Socialism by Allen Goldstein (who is pretty far to my left from where stand, but whose heart is in the right place as I see it) I stated that we need \"...legal measures strongly enforced to countermand conflicts of interest, which would require outlawing any kind of direct monetary influence on state interests from business interests. This and only this would allow government to judge the monetary interests of the state in terms of benefit to its citizens, uninfluenced by any direct benefit to themselves [politicians], but only by the indirect benefit derived from their own citizenship along with that of the rest.\n\"In my opinion, the big mistake our founders made was to leave this last out of the constitution. They included separation of church and state and checks and balances, but I don't think that was enough. I think our current situation illustrates the point. They should have included separation of direct monetary influence from business on the state as well. Without that, I believe corruption of government by business interests is inevitable.\"\nSo I agree with you wholeheartedly on that issue. You might also wish to take a look at my article Declaration of Economic Independence/Interdependence. It outlines the principles I believe should underlie good government in complex, technological societies and suggests ideas for how to implement some of them.\nYes, Ben, and thank you, too! Our educational system is way down the international list now in terms of student knowledge. I went to the first grade in 1950. I used to complain about how teaching even then tended to stifle creative thinking and critical thought. Now I thank God I went to school when I did, since the teachers I witness now don't know their fecal orifices from a hole in the ground.\nOne of the main reasons for that is that although they technically qualify as professionals, anyone smart enough to be a truly competent professional won't work for long at current pay levels. Add to that the both parents work now to barely get by and what do you get? You get parents who don't have time or even know how to cook real, healthy food that everyone sits down together to eat. As to their children you end up far too often with a bunch of fat dumbos who don't respect their parents, other adults, or each other enough to behave halfway decently, can't read, write school papers as if they were texting on their damn cell phones, etc.\nMark, thanks for the correction. I changed unfortunate to fortunate, so it's fixed now.\nMike: \"Again, I have read almost everything Rand has written and NOWHERE does she postulate or specify any \"conditions\" for a Free Market other than non-interference.\"\nBut Mike also says: \"Why do keep insisting on mixing up crook's motivations with \"rational self-interest\"?\"\nMy answer is simple, Mike. I don't. I just don't assume rational self-interest represents more than one aspect, a subset if you will, of the practical reality. That means \"non-interference\" by government is not an option.\nQuoting JoF regarding the prohibition of private financial influence on government:\n\"Objectivism and Natural Law are in agreement that such prohibition is one of the few legitimate roles of government.\"\nGovernment \"interference\" or \"regulation\", which I prefer to call policing, is something I don't believe we can rationally afford to privatize. That would result in the fox guarding the henhouse, which is pretty much what we have now anyway. Without such policing, we get a corrupt mixture of both kinds of self-interest. I submit that anyone who has had a \"friend\" who suddenly became an irrational idiot when money became involved has a solid basis for understanding how pervasive irrational self-interest is when money is involved.\nIt is precisely private financial influence that has corrupted our regulatory structure and made it so counterproductive. It has required ad hoc countermeasures to prevent utter depravity, but which combined with our messy political process has resulted in such a tangle of regulatory red tape.\nMy only quarrel with the \"virtue of selfishness\" is that it's not necessarily virtuous at all in practice. It sometimes is and often isn't. To assume it is to the point that free, efficient markets can exist without government \"interference\" (i.e., policing) is idealistic to the point of becoming completely unrealistic. It doesn't matter that Rand's ideas would work if it weren't for so much irrational self-interest. That's not the real world. Marxism would also work if people were so highly motivated by charity that they enthusiastically and happily enabled do-nothings to mooch off the rest or simply helped the disabled under the ideal assumption that charity is so universally motivating that moochers don't even exist. I believe neither works for the same bottom line reason, which is that practical reality does not conform to any such ideals. JoF's natural law arguments as well as the various versions of anarchy would work, too, if people actually conducted their lives in conformity with natural law.\nThe basis for the inclusion of the checks and balances our founders instituted in our form of government was a fortunate realism stemming from experience with the English monarchy. This realism recognized that self-interest is not necessarily either rational at all, or virtuous for that matter. There has to be some means of practically dealing with this simple truth. But I think checks and balances were only part of the possible solution.\nOne of my core beliefs about government is that checks and balances should also include total government insulation from the influence of commercial or any other kind of private financial pressure. I believe the only way to protect government from otherwise inevitable corruption is to outlaw such pressure, just as we have with the separation of church and state. Our government is just as corrupted with sectarian secular influence as surely as a theocracy is infected with sectarian religious influence. We don't usually think of commercial interests as \"sectarian\", but they do have a secular equivalent.\nOne small example is the trucking industry that lobbied for our interstate highway system, against which I have no objections considered in isolation. I'm happy it exists. I was in the fifth grade when our Weekly Reader announced Eisenhower's support for the interstate highway system. A few years later I became a happy beneficiary of it when our trip to our maternal grandparents' home required much fewer hours to negotiate with much greater comfort.\nHowever, there were other commercial pressures resulting in legislation I will not bother to enumerate that contributed to the growth of the much less efficient trucking industry and the eventual demise of a huge portion of the railroad industry. It also resulted in the virtually complete destruction of the passenger railroad industry. Anyone who has been the beneficiary of the efficient, pervasive passenger railroad system in Europe and is also old enough to remember the heyday of passenger rail travel in the U.S. realizes what a loss this has been. The vastly less fuel efficient airline industry is another beneficiary of our lopsided transportation system.\nThis was was all good for the auto, trucking, and airline industries and bad for conserving fossil fuel reserves and the environment, not to mention the economic abandonment of the demographic that cannot afford automobiles, flying, or do not wish to or cannot for whatever reason fly or drive. This is just a tiny example of how fundamentally and powerfully undue commercial pressure on government can affect the entire infrastructure of a major, highly technological society.\nAlvin, thank you for your encouraging comments. May you enjoy the best that life has to offer to a motivated man with high goals and the willingness to go for them with all his heart! Bravo, my brother!\nBob - I think we're converging on an understanding. Can we agree on the following assumptions?\n1) People are a mixed bag - some good, some bad\n2) A Free Market is one where buyers and sellers are able to negotiate their own terms, and transactions take place without the use of force, coercion, extortion, etc.\n3) There are always going to be people that try and \"cheat\" others or use undue influence on others to get what they want - there is no economic \"system\" that eliminates them.\n4) A proper function of government by consent of the people is to protect individuals from harm by others. In the Free Market this protection includes laws and regulations designed to catch and punish those offenders.\n5) Another equally important function of government is to provide protection to allow all individuals (NOT GROUPS) the right to pursue their own separate interests within the law. This includes non-interference in legal pursuits by any individual.\n6) It is NOT a proper function of government to protect, destroy, shelter, favor, subsidize or provide any advantage to any individual, company, industry, union or trade association. The collective actions of all people if a free market should be decide the success or failure of any enterprise.\nHow does the above set with you?\nJoF: \"Where you and I disagree, however, is what form of solution is required.\"\nPlease elaborate. I didn't quite get it if you feel you already did. We seem to agree that government must police commerce against unethical and criminal behavior and that government must not be infected with conflicts of interest that countermand this. That means to me that government must be insulated from any kind of direct monetary influence from private interests.\nThat means, in turn, that no individual or entity within Government be allowed to profit personally or organizationally in any direct or surreptitious reward from any specific legislation. Also, government must be transparent and fully account for those it is intended to serve.\nThis is the only way that there can be legitimate government concern for the economy that it profits from only as society profits from that same concern. Individual reward for those in government must be conditioned on exactly the same general economic factors that affect any citizen. It is the only there can be economic incentives for those in government to serve society rather than themselves. This kind of \"trickle up\" theory is the only kind of economic \"trickling\" I believe in.\nMike, I can agree fully with points 1 through 4 and also with 5 and 6 with certain caveats. There are some situations that require government mediation, such as an example I've used before, company towns. I use this as just one example, but a very easy one to understand, since it so clearly represents a situation that can very easily violate your condition that \"buyers and sellers are able to negotiate their own terms, and transactions...\" And that they should \"take place without the use of force, coercion, extortion, etc.\"\nI believe that people should be able to negotiate collectively, since the companies they work for can do exactly that, too. However, I don't believe in labor organizations that can hold whole industries hostage to their demands, since that is clearly a monopoly just as sure as a corporation that manages to corner its market is. I suggested in my article Declaration of Economic Independence/Interdependence that collective bargaining should have strong legal protections, but should be limited to the particular company for which the collectively bargaining labor actually works. There would naturally also have to be protection against all kinds of legal maneuvers on the part of the companies to split labor up by creating new divisions or whatever else they could conceivably come up with to skew the balance in their favor. Such shenanigans would have to be policed by government and decided by the courts.\nThere are many other situations that are similar. I also see a problem with never allowing under any circumstances competent authority to override public opinion that is clearly in error because the public doesn't believe a hurricane is coming, for example. So parents refuse to evacuate and so kill their innocent children along with themselves as a result of their own suicidal decisions.\nPublic opinion is far from infallible and easily influenced by those who specialize in influencing public opinion for their own corrupt advantage. You might be interested to know that I don't think we have any business trying to impose democracy on other nations, since I've been around internationally enough to become thoroughly convinced that democracy can only work when there is an informed citizenry free of radical religious ideas, for example, and/or intense ethnic and cultural divides that we can witness right now in some places that disallow democracy. We like democracy in other countries only when they vote the way we want them to anyway. Often they vote against their own interests. I think a good chunk of people in this country are doing just that. Very importantly, I don't think we really have a democracy right now in the U.S., but a plutocracy that suckers gullible folks with less power and influence to vote against their own interests to unwittingly aid the interests of their manipulators.\nWe live in a highly technological society with politicians making technological and scientific decisions who are completely illiterate in these areas. So we have a scientifically illiterate population living in a society that is supported by a very small percentage that is competent at all, and even many of these fail to see very important implications for society and the world of what they're doing. For most people, the technology they completely depend on and are often even addicted to might as well be magic. For them it is effectively magic. They make not think of it that way, but that's only because they're used to it and not at all because they understand it. I regard that is very dangerous for what I think should be obvious reasons. All these ignorant people end up voting for people who are either \"bubbas\" that they would be comfortable having a beer with or are really good at pretending to be, but incompetent to make wise decisions in our current scientific and technological environment. So the big question for me is how do we deal with that?! I'm not sure, to be honest.\nJoF: \"Robert, we have to stop treating politicians like fair maidens being spoiled by dirty businessmen.\"\nSo when have I even remotely implied that? Isn't it clear that to be corrupted, you have to be corruptible. Just because I didn't explicitly make that obvious point doesn't imply its opposite.\nWhat I'm saying is that if the money were outlawed, the incentives that attract corrupt people into the political system would be gone. We have a lot of things in this economy that provide incentives that are upside down with regard to anything that even begins to be positive for society.\nIrvn: \"...if one really wanted the money out of politics, one would logically advocate for less taxation,...\"\nWhat do taxes have to do with paying off politicians with campaign funds, perks of all kinds, special retirement plans and lifetime incomes that make Marxism look right wing?...all essentially bribes. Taxes don't bribe politicians. So who do you think does?...or do you just look the other way and pretend it's all fine?\nCarole McKee Added Feb 22, 2014 - 9:48am\nNathan Kelley--For once we are in total agreement. I always knew that day would come.\nMe, too, for once!\nWe need a simple sales tax on everything that gets exchanged, retail or wholesale. That way the people who use social infrastructures the most pay the most for it. If you tax only at the retail level, that doesn't happen. Taking your kids to school uses a lot less government infrastructure than manufacturers and their parts vendors do. This would be an extremely simple, fair, but very unlikely solution because we have a ton of people in the U.S. who make a very good living from consulting on our extremely complicated and UNFAIR tax system.\nLarry, I agree with most of your comment. But we need to recognize that our economy is not supporting jobs for everyone in between children and those too old to support themselves. We have a bunch of factors we've inherited from our past and current behaviors as a country than includes greed from those who have plenty much more from those who merely struggle survive. I smell a lot of political naivete in your comment in that regard.\nI think it's a bit of a stretch to call people greedy who naturally hope for help when they otherwise have to grovel in garbage to sift out some pitiful excuse for food. We have failed to educate our people well. We have automated many of them out of jobs. We have ripped off other countries' natural resources for the money it takes to bribe their corrupt leadership to let us do it while their people starve.\nNow we have some of those people in poor countries starting to get an education and take away good jobs our poor don't know how to fill. This makes people at the top super rich and leaves out our uneducated poor with no place to go for work. In other comments elsewhere, I've proposed that most of these U.S. poor don't know how to do basic things we all used to do for survival, like eat real food that grows in the ground that we can learn to produce ourselves.\nI know how to garden. I've come back from vacation with a garden so lush with vegetables we didn't have to shop for anything to eat until after we'd been back for four days. None of what we were eating was processed food unless you count dry whole grains and beans.\nBut I was also once laid off after getting a laptop as reward for being the most productive employee. I was the last to still be working before the company went under. I then had to do anything I could find, including temporary painting jobs and cleaning barns. I even worked in a grocery store for minimum wage for a while. I ran out of unemployment insurance twice and had to get food stamps and Supplementary Security Income. I don't think I was being greedy and I have a college education and had been making $62K/year in a small rural town in Iowa in 1996 before this happened.\nSo I get a little sick at my stomach when I hear blowhard blather about starving people being greedy because they welcome survival help from the government.\nLarry, by the way, my way out of that mess was to leave my family and friends after 22 years in that town and accept a graduate assistantship at age 60 (a minor miracle) for a Master's degree at the University of Florida, Gainesville. I graduated in 2006 with a 3.95/4.0. I worked a few hours a week as a consultant for $50/hour to keep my student loan needs low. I now work part time to supplement my retirement income and earn $45/hour before my costs for publicity, which are relatively low. How many people in my position could have done that, especially people without my skills and education? You may think you're a self-made man and get all puffed up about that and judgmental about people who aren't doing so well, but that ignores a ton of factors that have allowed you have whatever success you've experienced that you had NOTHING to do with, including in what family you were born and how they raised you, etc. Maybe you should think about being more grateful and less puffed up about your success and so less judgmental about those who've been less fortunate?\nCarole McKee Added Feb 24, 2014 - 1:53pm\nLarry, the story about the lady in your office just fries me! And I'll tell you why. I was a single parent with no education. I worked my butt off, sometimes two or three jobs at a time, just to keep a roof over my kids' heads. Their dad was a deadbeat who contributed nothing to their support, and since I worked and made my own way, support court didn't give a damn. Now that woman makes $32-37 a year? I made $5 an hour! I took nothing from anybody. My kids didn't have cell phones, X-box, Gameboys, designer clothes, big screen TVs, but what I did give them was love and a work ethic.\nI had no money to further my education and certainly no time, since I worked so much. Then I lost the use of my hand. After surgery, the hand worked but never worked quite as well. I ended up at OVR (Office of Vocational Rehabilitation) looking for help with a career change. After testing, I was offered a college scholarship and I jumped on it. But the point is, I lived on very damn little and got no help. I don't understand how all of these other people get so much free assistance.\nNow again, I find myself in severe unbearable pain that took me right out of the workforce. I now collect Social Security (I was turned down for disability) and I am just up against the wall every month. I'm trying to find a part-time job that wouldn't require a lot of physical activity rather than try to get any kind of government assistance.\nNow I feel for the woman with the special needs child, but I think she is getting a lot more than she needs from the government.\nI think what really infuriates me is that people who are getting assistance have a much better lifestyle than I have, and I've always worked.\nLarry, I understand there is an element of truth in what you say and I know that situations like that exist and that there is some fraud as well. The fraud is never going away any more than other kinds of insurance fraud. But does that mean we just focus on the relative pennies these people get compared the corporate fraud we just witnessed not so long ago? And that's just the tip of the iceberg and a zillion times more of a taxpayer ripoff. Magicians use misdirection of attention to pull off their \"magic\". There is a plutocratic component of our economy that is using misdirection big time to get us ticked off at little people with small-time fraud or greed if you like.\nAlso, you started a janitorial business that enable you to survive without government assistance. Bravo! I congratulate you. Do you think everyone has the ability to do that, or even do what I did to get myself off of government support? I did take that support, because where I was I saw no option other than ending up on the street. Does that make me a greedy, blood-sucking good-for-nothing in your eyes? I'm not cut out to be a salesman, but I've done a significant amount of high-end industrial sales work. It didn't come naturally and it was quite a strain for me. I'm pretty highly skilled both technically and musically, but I'm not a natural businessman either. I do have my own music teaching business with myself as the only employee, if you will. But that is a pretty simple kind of business in terms of the business side of it. It takes a lot of deep knowledge, though, to teach what I teach as well as I teach it.\nThe point is we're all different and cut out for different things. Some things are more readily supported by society and the economy than others. Music is considered a luxury by everyone except musicians, so in hard economic times, things go more slowly. I've had success to whatever degree I have because I'm extremely good at what I do. Not everyone is as good at whatever they do as you and I are.\nSo I feel that you're being a bit too judgmental in the bigger picture if we ignore the exceptional situations like the one about the lady who works for you. I've always worked, too, just as Carole has, but I needed the help or I honestly don't know what would have happened to us. We didn't need it long, but when we needed it, we really needed it. You ignore that both of you were raised to be the way you are and have the way of thinking and being that worked for you the way it did. Does that mean we should condemn everyone who was not fortunate to be born into that kind of situation to economic hell? I don't think so. I don't even think that would be good for anyone, including us, in the long run.\nRobin the red breasted songster Added Feb 28, 2014 - 3:20am\nNathan: Is that true about tax breaks for campaign donations? Sounds incredible.\nJohnny Fever Added Feb 28, 2014 - 12:29pm\n@ Robert & Larry\nWhile I disagree with just about everything Robert says, as it relates to this discussion, I agree with Robert. Greed has nothing to do with the social safety and entitlement programs which Robert and others depend on. Being dependent on social security, unemployment, food stamps, etc. is not a lifestyle to be envied. Furthermore, this is a generous country so despite Fredrick Douglas\u2019 cold hearted approach to the needy, we provide for the needy.\nBecause we\u2019re a capitalist country, there are far less needy which need to be provided for than if we lived in a socialist country. But living in a capitalist country doesn\u2019t make us greedier nor should it be considered a curse of capitalism. Greed is a sin, wanting more for you and your family is a commendable goal. Thankfully capitalism allows us to pursue that goal far easier than in a system where everyone is supposed to be the same\u2026socialism.\nThank you, Johnny. For once we have something to agree on. One of the problems of the current political far right political environment is that they view just about any social safety net to be more than merely socialist, but Marxist!\nI get the impression from your use of the word socialism that you tend to equate it with Marxism. Much of Europe is much more socialist than anything the hard right here classifies that way in the United States. This is even truer of Scandinavia, most especially Sweden and Denmark. None of these is a Marxist social system.\nOn the contrary, they are highly capitalistic in their business models with low levels of both government regulation and interestingly, of poverty, which is much lower than ours. However, these countries also have their downsides and Switzerland, which is ultra-capitalist, also has very low levels of poverty. I attribute this in Switzerland to a strong work ethic and a superior form of democracy that is vastly less corrupted by money than ours. Here is an interesting article with a relatively balanced perspective that looks at the pluses and minuses of Scandinavian socialism/capitalism:\nhttp://www.frontpagemag.com/2011/steven-plaut/does-scandinavian-socialism-work/\nJohnny Fever Added Mar 1, 2014 - 12:31am\nAlthough I can\u2019t speak for everyone in the far right I don\u2019t think they think the social safety net is Marxist. In addition, I personally don\u2019t equate socialism to Marxism. I also don\u2019t think the Scandinavian countries you mentioned are \u201chighly capitalistic in their business models with low levels of both government regulation\u201d. I think they are far more socialistic than us but we\u2019re catching up quick.\nI think your link did more to discredit some of your assertions than help. For example, the title of the article is \u201cDoes Scandinavian Socialism Work?\u201d; not exactly a title touting a capitalistic system. And most of the article was spent debunking your statement about their poverty levels being lower than the United States.\nI don't know if I like the word Greed. Can we replace it with passion please. It kind of sounds good. Greed for life does not sound as good as passion for life. The word greed implies a sense of selfishness whereas passion includes others also.\nI notice that the many readers seem to believe that only economic success will solve all our problems. I feel that time has come now where the psychological survival will play just as an important role as the economic survival. The reliance on drugs and alcohol to relax is bit scary in my opinion.\nI also feel there is some confusion about knowledge, skills and education. I think they are all very different. The current system only provides skills and knowledge. The word education implies the total understanding of concepts and the ability to efficiently apply in real situations. I do not come across that too often. I notice that common-sense is lacking in many people. Compassion should be part of education too. In my experience, a compassionate manager achieves better results from his/her employees than a money driven manager.\nA good, passionate not greedy, organisation is able to predict its future requirements of skills and it prepares its employees for those skills. One requires intelligence to foresee what is coming. It should be noted that knowledge is one dimensional, logical arrangement of that knowledge is two dimensional, complete understanding of that knowledge is three dimensional but intelligence is beyond time and space therefore has no dimension and is very rare. That is why the current issues as seen in theses discussions. Can institutions provide education and not just knowledge and skills? Industry must work with institutions to help the colleges prepare new candidates and their current employees to meet the future skills requirements. I believe it is called being pro-active rather than reactive. Greedy people only want the profits now, passionate people want the profit now but also want to prepare for future.\nSome of the very best benefits for mankind have come from people who are passionate but not greedy.\nThe Internet for example, essentially donated by Tim Berners Lee and which, because of the fact that it was not monetised, was immensely more useful and popular than the paid for alternatives that existed before e.g. Compuserve.\nOnce you have enough to satisfy needs, the psychologically healthy human being starts to be driven by other things such as, for example, the praise of his peers, a sense of achievement etc.\nIt is only the seriously unbalanced that continue to pursue money for its own sake... sitting like some bad tempered troll on a growing pile of gold coins. The rest use what they have to create something else more worthwhile e.g. Bill Gates and his Foundation.\nMoney does not make you happy. What you choose to do with it just might though. However just buying stuff rarely works as a happiness generator beyond the short term\nRobert Wendell Added Mar 3, 2014 - 10:42am\nJohnny, please try to read with your heavy political filters turned off. Those articles mentioned that poverty does indeed exist in those Scandinavian countries, so they haven't eliminated it, but it's much lower and they get a lot of government help. That said, you have to go beyond that title to get to the part that talks about how strongly capitalist their business models are.\nAre you going to deny that the openly and strongly Marxist government in China has implemented an essentially capitalist business model? Well, the Scandinavian countries are much more capitalist than China. I also compared them to Switzerland, which is anything but socialist, yet also has very low levels of poverty.\nI also disagree strongly with the characterization of greed as responsible for financial success. I think it corrupts financial success by converting it to a \"no holds barred\", dog-eat-dog kind of success. That's essentially criminal. The drug cartels operate on that philosophy taken all the way to its logical conclusion. Slavery is also an extreme example.\nGetting enormously rich by taking advantage of people who have no choice but to accept very low wages or starve is just a less obvious, milder brand of slavery. I don't think greed is ever good. The most truly successful people I have run across were wealthy, kind, and happy. They made their money by providing others with an opportunity to contribute to their entrepreneur's success and their own with their own work and creativity. They inspired passion, as others here have put it.\nThat is not greed. If everyone functioned this way, there would be no poverty and the society as a whole would be much more successful both financially and in quality of life. There is no reason with our current technological knowledge to be anything but wealthy on an inclusive, social scale. The idea that we're in a zero sum game is essentially a Marxist idea, that we have to take from the rich to give to the poor. We need a simplified, fair tax system and we need to get rid of our upside down financial incentives that reward the wrong kinds of behavior at both the industrial and individual level. We just need to quit trampling on each other to get off the boat and start bailing water together.\nRobert Wendell Added Mar 3, 2014 - 4:51pm\nMark, your example translates Mahendra's philosophy extremely badly. First, there is nothing in being a compassionate manager that eliminates the goal of monetary achievements. Your example eliminates them to make the it a severely unjust interpretation of Mahendra's philosophy.\nI have worked in industry quite a lot. I've seen it all. I've seen managers who judged everything in terms of apparent short term monetary advantage while ignoring human feelings and lost really good employees as a result. As a personal example, I trained someone highly qualified to do work that I managed and she became much better at it that when she came. She was highly technical but cold as ice in her interactions with clients. She improved greatly under my training. This is a level of feeling for people absolutely affects revenues.\nNow here comes another, even better example in the same company. A few months later, the president and CEO wanted to lay This new woman off because business was slow for reasons unrelated to her or anyone else's performance. I convinced him that it was a bad idea; that we had invested a lot in the new woman and she had become quite good at her job.\nI knew this man and was quite aware of his essentially heartless way of managing his company. I knew that by convincing him to keep her I was risking my own job; that this turkey could easily lay me off instead sometime later because I had been there much longer and cost him substantially more. But I knew what I was doing was the honest thing to do.\nSure enough, he did lay me off a few months later. The new woman realized who she was working for, how cold-hearted and strictly money oriented he was. She got a new job at her earliest convenience. He was left in the lurch and called me right away.\nI implied to him quite directly, firmly, but politely essentially how wrong-headed his behavior had been. He was desperate and I took full advantage of my leverage to reinstate my longer vacation time, a higher salary than before, and the ability to take my vacation time only a couple of months after returning when I had originally scheduled it. I got everything I asked for, of course.\nI told him that he had made three bad decisions. one of which I had talked him out of, and that he had clearly made the wrong decision every time because he was thinking only of the apparent short term monetary advantage each time with no attention to either moral integrity, sensitivity to, or compassion for others' needs and desires. He shrugged and said you can't always make the right decisions, making it clear that my remarks had sailed right around his dense little head.\nOnly three months later, after having returned from my European vacation, I got an attractive job offer from another company. I took it. The wife of the president and CEO of the company I was leaving was furious. She hadn't been furious at all when her dear husband had done exactly the same thing to me. I think I smell something of a double standard there. It's funny (but not so humorous) how twisted people's perceptions can be, isn't it?\nThe power elite in any country often have this kind of double standard: one for themselves and another for those they regard as having lesser status. They see no irony in their treatment of others in ways that would offend them deeply if anyone directed the same behavior toward them. In their minds, their still exists a modern equivalent of the divine right of kings that justifies one standard for them and their noble colleagues and another for \"commoners\".\nI have seen this many times, as well as very different and vastly more positive attitudes in people with much greater wealth than this mighty moral midget had. The difference in their personalities clearly corresponded. So did their company's morale. The employee morale in the story I just told was always in the sewer. How much money that cost that turkey is an opportunity cost that I'm not competent to assess, but I'm quite certain that it was very high.\nThanks for the clarification and the support.\nI would just like to add to what Robert has just said. Compassion is a very powerful energy and it contains, but not limited to, the following.\n1. Responsibility to yourself and your employees.\n2. Passion for what you are doing.\n3. Desire for an outcome which include budgets, sales targets and the other economic factors.\n5. Consideration of the feelings of employees and their personal issues.\nI have operated my business for the last twenty-three years without ever making a loss. I have maintained my team and have never sacked a single employee. During the global financial crisis when large and small companies were struggling and shutting their doors, we not only survived, we did better. My acquaintances closed business. The reason for our survival and the demise of others was simple. There employees were working for the money, our team was working for me and I was working for the team. Compassion is the most powerful energy on this planet if one knows how to utilise it. It gives you strength to carry on. Currently I am training young engineers in power generation industry how to integrate philosophy with technology because they are related. I pray that few listen.\nI would agree with Mahendra here. When employees are only working for money they do not deliver of their best for you. In fact, those are the employees that you have to be careful of if they are in a position of trust.\nI have twice had problems with employees defrauding me. Both were highly money orientated.\nThe best employee is one who is motivated to deliver his best irrespective of whether extra money is involved. Employer and employee need to be loyal to each other.\nIf you find yourself trying to motivate through money, then you have probably failed.\nThis is not to say that you should not remunerate people accordingly. You should. Inadequate remuneration can be a demotivator. But motivation of the best sort comes from other sources.\nI should say that Mark is correct about money perhaps delivering more as a motivator... in the short term.\nIf you have a monthly or quarterly driven business then maybe cash is the best way to go. No-one is committed to the business for the long term so the only thing anyone really gets out of it is cash today.\nBut those businesses rarely make it through for the long term unless something is done to develop and conserve the business's human capital. When an employee leaves, a huge amount of value leaves with him... this is certainly true in the businesses that I have been involved in. It can take years to replace.\nJohnny: \"Although I can\u2019t speak for everyone in the far right I don\u2019t think they think the social safety net is Marxist.\"\nWell, then why, since we have not even remotely attempted to implement anything close to the socialism that abounds in Europe, and since even European socialism is not Marxism, then while I'm not defending everything the current administration does, why is the far right yelling Marxism at everything economical the current administration tries to implement?\nMike Haluska Added Mar 4, 2014 - 12:52pm\n\"Well, then why, since we have not even remotely attempted to implement anything close to the socialism that abounds in Europe\"\nindicates you have a different definition of \"remotely\" than most everyone else. Now that we are implementing socialized medicine, allowing the NSA to eavesdrop on any and all private communication, using the IRS to punish \"dissidents\", implemented even harsher penalties to those trying to get out of the welfare state trap, destroyed the traditional family, etc. I'd say we're leading the race to the perfect progressive ideal - Total Control of every aspect of the ordinary citizen's life\nMike, don't be so paranoid! The NSA has been doing that for a long, long time, way before the current administration. The only difference between what was happening before is the increasing technological ability to do what they were already doing their darndest to do.\nYOU have a very different definition of \"Total Control\" than most everybody else, but this time \"everybody else\" is for real. Your implied concept of \"most everybody else\" seems to include only your particular social and political environment, which I would submit is far from representative of the general population.\nOh, and by the way, government control, spying on your own citizenry, harsh treatment of dissidence, harsh penalties, etc. do not have anything to do with any reasonable definition of socialism. Every kind of dictatorship that has ever existed has had these characteristics, most of which had nothing to do with socialism.\nYou think of me as a liberal, but I'm as against all those things at least as much as you are. So what's your beef?\n1) What I said about what the current administration has been trying to do really doesn't approach anything like European socialism, which is also still far from real Marxism.\n2) All the things you mention as proving otherwise have nothing to do with socialism. I don't like them either.\n3) All the things you mention have been growing decade by decade. The current administration is not doing anything that wasn't already happening or trying to happen under many previous administrations, including all the Republican ones, who have been some of the worst offenders despite their disingenuous rhetoric to the contrary,\n4) Republicans have constantly harped about spending while historically increasing spending by vastly greater percentages than Democratic administrations.\n5) They talk about trickle down economics, but the economy has performed worse by far under Republican administrations than under Democratic ones as a clear matter of public record.\n6) Income inequality has increased enormously more under Republican administrations than Democratic ones for reasons completely unrelated to entitlement programs.\n7) I dislike both parties, but find the Democrats the lesser of two pretty disgusting evils.\n8) I believe we need to unseat this political duopoly by peaceful means, but lack the social unity to do so.\n9) This same lack of unity is even more impotent to effect change by violent means than it is politically.\n10) I believe in intelligently regulated capitalism (i.e., policed for the purpose of bringing criminal economic behavior to justice).\nAddendum to my preceding post:\nPoint 10 should read, \"I believe in intelligently regulated capitalism (i.e., policed for the purpose of bringing criminal economic behavior to justice and eliminating conflicts of interest, which should be outlawed).",

        "raw_content": "The 200 Faces Project\nIn 2009, I was feeling the pressure of being a recent college graduate in an economic crisis. I was finding it challenging to remain creative and still pay my bills, and for a time found myself simultaneously working 4 part time jobs, because of the student loans I was carrying. It was a crash landing into the real world, after the structure and safety of the academic setting, where projects were defined and I had felt productive.\nAfter experimenting with a self-portrait, I painted a few friends and family members. When I had 10 portraits finished, I displayed them at an exhibit in Lewiston, Maine, and decided to publicize a goal: I would set out to paint and sell 200 portraits to pay off my student loans. By doing so, I hoped to accomplish several things: become debt-free, build my portfolio, hone my skills, establish an artistic reputation, and stay inspired to regularly produce art.\nBy making 200 Faces public, I was held accountable, and I soon found that it grew beyond my expectations. It became a widespread community art project, and I received orders from other states and countries.\nI loved having a goal to work toward, and appreciated every new challenge that each painting provided. I painted adults, children, couples, families, dogs, and cats. Some serious, some joyful, some with a hint of humor or strong personality. Some were memorial paintings to honor those who had passed on. I truly enjoyed making connections and learning the stories of the people and animals that I was painting.\nThis body of work represents the beginning of an ongoing journey to explore humans and animals on canvas for a glimpse into who they are, and the relationships that connect them. I look forward to the future and the faces it will bring!",

        "raw_content": "http://www.3-keys.com\nFor inbound marketing professionals, the importance of social media to a successful marketing campaign is so very important. Social media sharing sites such as Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Pinterest are indispensable tools of the trade when it comes to marketing content.\nFacebook is by the far the best platform for promoting brand awareness, as nearly three quarters of Americans adults use the site. Facebook is a great platform for promoting virtually any brand, due to its very heterogeneous user base. Business like Pillrite, Astute, Contact center, Aspire, Thapos have integrated with 3- keys for Social media promotion via 3-Keys Graphics.\nInstagram is a great option for brands that rely heavily on images, such as clothing companies and retailers. It\u2019s also particularly effective for reaching young adults, Hispanics and African Americans.\nGoogle+ can be a great platform to reach men in the technology industry, as two-thirds of the network\u2019s users are men, most of whom work in engineering or other technical professions.there is that statistic about the more than 500 million users. If your business only attracted 0.5% of all Google+ users to your website, that would still be 2.5 million visits to your company website, which means millions of opportunities to convert those visitors into leads, and eventually customers.\nPinterest is an excellent social network to reach women, especially for brands selling jewelry or clothing. There are many reasons Pinterest is a great opportunity for businesses. It will help you introduce your business and blog to a whole new audience. One pin can lead to ten pins, which can lead to another ten pins, and so on\nFinally, if you operate a business-to-business company, LinkedIn is a stronger choice for promoting business-related content and connecting with other corporate influencers. A 2013 study from Jill Konrath and Ardath Albee revealed that 84% of users generated several business opportunities from the use of LinkedIn.\nA LinkedIn company page provides your business with the opportunity to tell your company\u2019s story, engage with followers, share career opportunities, and scale your word of mouth marketing.",

Prior to this it had operated over the road on a site right on the river that it shared with an almshouse. The original Old Anchor and the almshouse were moved to new sites when Christ\u2019s Hospital, which owned the whole area and still does, redeveloped St Helen\u2019s Wharf in 1884.\nThe three attached houses that had stood on the present site were remodeled to create the new Old Anchor Inn plus a separate dwelling that was incorporated in the same building. At the rear of the present building, and not accessible to the public, is a seventeenth-century timber-framed range that formed part of the original three houses. The redevelopment also included new almshouses next to the new inn. They replaced an old workshop that was demolished to make way for them.\nThe present Old Anchor has two doorways. Initially only the right hand door (1 St Helen\u2019s Wharf) led to the public house; the left hand door (No. 2) belonged to the separate dwelling. This was later incorporated into the public house.\n\u00a9 AAAHS and contributors 2013 revised 2014\nThe Old Anchor is listed at Grade II (reference no.1048831)",

        "raw_content": "JPMorgan Touts Nakheel's Sukuk Saying Default Doubtful\nJPMorgan Chase & Co. is advising clients to buy Nakheel PJSC\u2019s Islamic bonds after last month\u2019s record slump as new projects boost the Dubai developer\u2019s earnings, while government backing makes a default improbable.\nState-run Nakheel\u2019s 4.27 billion dirhams ($1.2 billion) of sukuk yielded 9.88 percent at 12:30 p.m. in Dubai, down seven basis points this month, after surging 179 basis points in June. That\u2019s more than twice the average gain in yields on corporate Islamic debt tracked by HSBC/Nasdaq Dubai indexes. JPMorgan listed Nakheel in a July 4 research note as its \u201ctop overweight recommendation\u201d among Dubai real-estate debt.\nNakheel will manage to pay or refinance as much as half of the $3 billion of debt due in 2016 as it generates at least $1 billion from new projects and land sales, JPMorgan said. Investors have demanded higher yields to hold Nakheel\u2019s bonds since the company drove Dubai to the brink of default in 2009, prompting the government to extend a bailout.\n\u201cThe government is quite unlikely to let Nakheel default on its bond obligations in 2016 after supporting the company under much more difficult circumstances,\u201d JPMorgan analyst Zafar Nazim wrote in the note. \u201cNakheel has been a beneficiary of real-estate recovery in Dubai. We believe that new project launches and plot sales were not baked in the original restructuring plan that was agreed in 2010.\u201d\nNakheel, known for building an island shaped like the frond of a palm tree and another like a world map off Dubai\u2019s coast, has received at least $8 billion of cash from the government since announcing a standstill agreement with creditors in 2009, JPMorgan said.\nThe real estate industry in Dubai, one of seven sheikhdoms of the United Arab Emirates, has started recovering from a crash that sent prices plunging more than 65 percent. New projects such as the world\u2019s biggest Ferris wheel, a new district with 100 hotels and the world\u2019s largest mall were unveiled in the past year.\nSale prices for residential units have risen 28 percent from a trough in January 2011, according to an index tracked by Jones Lang LaSalle. Dubai\u2019s economy grew 4.4 percent in 2012, the fastest pace in five years. Against this backdrop, JPMorgan also recommends Islamic debt of Emaar Properties PJSC (EMAAR), developer of the world\u2019s tallest tower, and Jebel Ali Free Zone Authority FZE, which leases commercial real estate in Dubai.\nAverting Default\nThe yield on Emaar\u2019s 6.4 percent securities due in July 2019 has declined 25 basis points this month to 5.59 percent today, while Jafza\u2019s 7 percent sukuk due a month earlier yielded 5.43 percent, down 30 basis points. The yield on HSBC/Nasdaq Dubai\u2019s Corporate U.S. Dollar Sukuk Index advanced 73 basis points last month.\n\u201cDubai was able to avert bond default in all of its government-related entities and its economy has recovered to pre-crisis levels,\u201d JPMorgan said. \u201cNakheel has been a beneficiary of real-estate recovery in Dubai.\u201d\nDubai\u2019s credit risk returned this year to levels it hasn\u2019t seen since late 2008 amid the global credit crisis, after state-linked companies paid or refinanced at least $3.75 billion since the start of 2012. Five-year credit default swaps, which protect investors against non-payment of debt, dropped 130 basis points in the past year to 220 on July 5, according to CMA. Middle East contracts fell 13 basis points, on average, to 302 in the period.\n\u2018Risky Sector\u2019\nStill, property prices in Dubai are likely to ease \u201cdue to high levels of future supply, limited debt availability and more mature market regulations,\u201d Alan Robertson, chief executive officer for the Middle East and North Africa at Jones Lang LaSalle, said by e-mail yesterday.\nInvestors dumping emerging-market assets sold debt of Dubai property companies last month amid an emerging-market rout triggered by Federal Reserve plans to trim its bond-buying program. Nakheel\u2019s debt isn\u2019t rated, while Emaar\u2019s bonds non-investment grade at Moody\u2019s Investors Service and Standard & Poor\u2019s.\n\u201cDubai\u2019s real estate is still considered a risky sector,\u201d said Montasser Khelifi, Dubai-based senior manager for global markets at Quantum Investment Bank Ltd. \u201cWhen there\u2019s turmoil in the bond market, investors sell the debt, even though new projects in Dubai are announced regularly these days.\u201d\nNakheel\u2019s business prospects are improving. The company said in May it sold 471 villas valued at almost 1.9 billion dirhams. The developer also expects to sign an agreement with banks to extend the maturity by eight years from 2015 on 8 billion dirhams of debt, a spokeswoman said last month.\nInvesting in Nakheel\u2019s sukuk may be a risk worth taking, Khelifi said. \u201cWhile its very possible Nakheel won\u2019t have the money to repay the bonds, it\u2019s good news that they\u2019re seeking to refinance their debt,\u201d he said.\n(Bloomberg / 08 July 2013)\nLabels: Islamic finance, sukuk",

        "raw_content": "Islamic finance \u2018can boost investment in Mediterranean\u2019\nIslamic finance is emerging as one of the main tools for further economic development in the Mediterranean region, a panel of experts said Nov. 27.\nSpeaking at the 3rd Mediterranean Islamic Finance Forum at the 9th Mediterranean Week of Economic Leaders in Barcelona, experts said Islamic finance provides an alternative source of funds that could help financial institutions broaden their sources of funding.\nExperts in the banking sector at the forum said that though the volume of Islamic finance has grown steadily, there are many challenges for Islamic finance, including the deteriorating global economic environment, lack of product awareness in the industry, technology risk, liquidity risk and legal and tax issues.\nMarcos Eguiguren, the executive director for the Global Alliance for Banking on Values that was established seven years ago by several global banks, said no economic activity makes sense if serving people and society is not its main goal.\n\u201cIslamic banking is based on values. We should build bridges between value-based and Islamic banking,\u201d Eguiguren said.\nPablo Moreno, head of Financial Organizations and International Relations of the Spanish Central Bank, said Islamic finance has grown 5 percent since 2008, faster than normal banking.\n\u201cIslamic finance is useful for infrastructure finance and for financing SMEs [small- and medium-sized enterprises]. Spain is highly dependent on SMEs for employment and growth. We face challenges in financing them, and, despite many attempts by EU to help, it is still not enough,\u201d Moreno said.\nMoreno said there are regulatory challenges for Islamic finance. \u201cThere is a need for greater harmonization of regulations that govern Islamic finance around the world,\u201d he added.\nExperts estimate Islamic finance currently manages assets of $2 trillion globally, an amount that is projected to increase to $6.5 trillion by 2020.\nHowever, the decline in oil prices means that governments and companies in the Middle East --which represents about 40 percent of Islamic finance in terms of assets-- will have less to invest in Islamic financial products, according to a report by credit agency Standard & Poor\u2019s (S&P) released on Oct. 19.\n(Daily News / 04 December 2015)\nIslamic finance \u2018can boost investment in Mediterra...",

        "raw_content": "one of the hardest things i've found about my journey in grief so far has been the anxiety of knowing that anything could happen at any moment.\nand today i want to write about it, because writing about things helps me understand how i'm feeling, and i guess i feel that by sharing it in this way i can start to move through it a little more. it's not something i can easily talk about face to face, so those of you who know me or see me in real life probably haven't realised what's been going on in my head and why i've been quite so flaky lately.\nso, if you're new here, you need some context, because this anxiety all stems from losing my beautiful littlest niece earlier this year - i wrote a post about it at the time, which so many of you have been so kind about.\nit's been over 6 months now, and one of the major repercussions of this tragic loss has been how it has affected my anxiety levels. because, you see, the way in which she was taken was so very very very unexpected, and it was so sudden and simple. it could have happened to anyone. but it didn't happen to just anyone, it wasn't something that happened to someone else in the newspapers, it happened to her and it happened to our family.\ni do believe that God took her that day for a reason, that it wasn't random, and that it was very much a part of His bigger plan and that He was protecting her from something worse in her future. i talked about this more in my previous post. and i guess i feel confident in His ability to do the right thing, but i feel exactly the opposite about my own ability. i feel like if i step outside of the house, however tired or awake, however well or sick, something bad could happen.\nand that IS the reality - anything could happen at any time. i just didn't see it as clearly as i see it now.\ni believe more than ever that we do need to live in a way where there are no regrets and in a constant state of preparedness for our final day, where we make sure to speak kindly and gently and thoughtfully to those around us, because only God knows when that last day is going to be. and we make sure to not go to bed angry with anyone, and to say goodbye properly.\nbut, instead of believing and living in the positive sides of this truth, i'm currently in an opposing extreme, where i stay in more often than not because i feel safer that way. and i only do things outside my comfort zone if it's been in my diary for a while and i feel comfortable with all the variables. i hardly ever do anything last minute. i cancel things a lot; when my sugar levels are slightly out of control (i have type 1 diabetes) or if my toddler is grumpy or sick (he's 2.5 so it happens a lot), or if i haven't had enough sleep, because then i don't feel in control.\nof course, the irony of this is actually that the fewer people i spend time with, the harder i find it to go out the house and spend time with people and hold a conversation, especially new people. i seek comfort in the people i've known for ages because i know that if i say something stupid they'll still love me.\nbeing a stay-at-home mum really does compound this situation rather a lot too. as well as just my own personality type (a people-pleasing introvert/INFJ). to make my stress levels higher also, we moved country at the end of last year, and we are in progress with moving again shortly... it's all just rather a lot at the moment. it feels the same as the last time i had proper doctor-approved \"stress\" and took two weeks off work - i have shortness of breath, chest pains, foggy brain, i cry all the time - only i can't exactly get a prescription for time off to fix this one...\nso that's where i am, and that's how i feel. and that's why you may not have heard from me, or that might be why i've cancelled our dates. thank you for bearing with me those of you who have, you are so dear to me. and thank you for your encouragement and support, you will never know what one kind word or message can do to change my day. please keep praying that i feel His confidence to get out the door, and that i fully know that in Him i can do all things.\nso then, there's this gorgeous song by Lauren Daigle called You Say, and the lyrics are so perfect that i want to share them with you, because each time i hear this song at the moment i cry, and each time i hear it i want this song to be my song...\ni hope these words speak to you. please go and listen to the song because it's so beautiful (you can listen/watch here on YouTube). it's a reminder of some key truths that i need to get stuck down deep in my head and my heart - i need to keep singing 'i believe what you say of me' until i do.\ni don't believe in being a hands-off Christian, one that just does whatever they want and hopes God will protect them, because i do believe He gave me a brain for a reason. but i do also know that He would rather i have a life lived confidently outside of these walls, and that i would chose to do things in His confidence more often. that i would use His strength and His love to move forwards.\nif you've experienced stress or anxiety before, i'd really appreciate your practical advice as well as verses or words of encouragement - so please add them in the comments or send them to any other way you can. i believe our words can change lives.\nthank you for reading today x\nLabels: anxiety, grief, how i feel\nHi Alissa\nFirst well done for sharing this post, it can't have been easy.\nWhile I cannot imagine what you have gone through losing your neice so unexpectedly, I have faced my own anxiety. I'm also a fellow INFJ.\nTo give you a brief overview, I had a bad living arrangement at uni (10 years ago now) which left me very anxious. I ended up leaving uni, but things continued to take a turn for the worse when I was in a car accident. I then lost my Mum to cancer in 2014.\nCombined, these things left me with agoraphobia. I did not want to leave the house for the fear that something bad would happen. What if I had another car accident? What if something happens and my Mum is not there to help? What if I come across horrible people like at uni and feel trapped again?\nI did hit rock bottom and asked for help with the NHS. This turned my life around and I started going out again. Talking to someone allowed me to have a weight taken off my shoulders and I started to feel safe again .\nSo I guess what I'm trying to say is, yes the fear is still there when I go out. I fear for the future and the everyday. But the opposite scenario of staying at home, a prisoner of my own making is far worse in the long term.\nIt took me a long time to realise both bad and good things happen regardless of whether I choose to leave the house that day.\nYou must also give yourself compassion as it has not been a year since the tragic loss of your neice, and so it is perfectly normal and okay to feel the way you do. It's only in hindsight of losing my Mum that I can make sense of that first year of grief, and why things played out the way they did.\nSo be gentle with yourself, you're doing the best you can.\nTry to up relaxation as much as you can (I know with a toddler this is challenging). But even just some simple breathing exercises daily will support your nervous system. It's not for everyone, but possibly read up on CBD oil as that is good for anxiety.\nI am thinking of you at this time and pray that you feel better soon xx",

        "raw_content": "I always love weddings that are different, and the handfasting vows that this couple added to their wedding made it truly unique. According to Wikipedia, the term originated from the old Norse word hand-festa, which meant \"to strike a bargain by joining hands.\"\nIt is similar to our tradition today of shaking hands with each other. It is a Pagan ritual that predates Christianity by several centuries.\nIf you are of Celtic heritage, this may be something that you wish to add to your ceremony in order to honor that. It involves tying a cord or ribbon of some sort around the hands of the bride and groom. In the case of this couple they had originally tied several ribbons of different colors together in a lariat style, with long ends hanging loose.\nThis is what I tied around their hands during the ceremony. They had practiced on themselves several times before the wedding to make sure that it worked well.\nThe idea is that the knot tied during the ceremony will never be untied during their marriage. It therefore represents the eternity of their love. They will keep that knot throughout their lives.\nHere are the handfasting vows that Carter and Gary chose to use in their ceremony.\nDo you have symbols of your love and these vows to give to each other? (Give pre-made cords to officiant.) These cords are a symbol of the truth of the vows you have spoken. They represent the eternal love that you share. Let these cords say to all that your commitment is deep and everlasting. As you wear them, may infinite love be nurtured through all your years to come.\nNow join your hands, and with your hands, your hearts.\nOfficiant then ties the cords around the couple\u2019s hands in a knot.\nHere is a suggestion for other wording that you could incorporate into your ceremony as well. Feel free to vary the words according to your preference.\n'These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you, that are holding yours on your wedding day, as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow, and forever.\nThese are the hands that will work alongside yours, as together you build your future. These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you through the years, and with the slightest touch, will comfort you like no other.\nThese are the hands that will hold you when fear or grief fills your mind. These are the hands that will countless times wipe the tears from your eyes; tears of sorrow, and tears of joy. These are the hands that will help you to hold your family as one.\nThese are the hands that will give you strength when you need it. And lastly, these are the hands that even when wrinkled and aged, will still be reaching for yours, still giving you the same unspoken tenderness with just a touch.\"\nOf course, there are many sites on the web with information and suggestions for this tradition. I encourage you to do some research and come up with what resonates with the two of you if you decide to go this route. It is limited only by your imagination.\nGo from \"Handfasting Vows\" to \"Home Page\"",

        "raw_content": "4 of the Best CRMs for Insurance Agents\nPosted: Thu Oct 04, 2018 4:43 pm Post subject: 4 of the Best CRMs for Insurance Agents\nHello forums. I've been a long time reader here, and decided to start giving back to the community that's helped me so much. I'm an agency owner, and I've seen a lot of people posting in the past about the technology they use to keep their businesses running. When we started our agency, we looked at a lot different systems to manage our book of business and prospecting. We've gone through many of them, so I'm going to lay out a quick review on the ones that (in my opinion) are the best ones out there, for various reasons. Maybe this will help some of you find the right solution, as well. These are in no particular order.\nAgencybloc.com\nThis one was the first systems we used when we got up and running. Agencybloc is a well-known name in the industry. It was developed by software guys, and provides a pretty broad suite of basic agency management tools. The bonus here is that it's industry-specific.\nProspect creation\nOne of the biggest strengths they have is the reporting features. They have invested a lot of time into building detailed reporting on many different aspects of an agency. I personally feel that this is the area where they excel the most. The tracking features are nice, too. It's always good to have one place to watch your pending, see your written business, and track commissions. However, we stopped using the system because if didn't really offer enough for us. It's not the easiest system to use, either, but the support staff is very good at addressing issues quickly, and they have a lot of guides and tutorials. Price-wise, it can get very expensive when you start adding a lot of agents to it, but the basic package is very affordable.\nPipedrive is a very nice little system for what it does. If competing solely on price, their basic plan is $12, and that gets you the starter tools that will work for basic management. While it isn't industry-specific, it's very customizable. The main dashboard can be reconfigured to track opportunities based on our industry's language. It's pretty straight forward, simple, and doesn't take a lot of technical expertise to get up and running. Some of the highlights are:\nGrouping features (organizations)\narc-ware.com\nARC isn't as heavy on the reporting features, like Agencybloc, but its array of tools is impressive and it's industry-specific. As far as working in the life and health market, it has tons of features that make life easier for our agents. So far, this is the most comprehensive system we've found. All the essential stuff, like client and prospect management is here, but a lot of everyday stuff that we use in the field, and the office.\nThe prospecting database alone is a huge feature, especially when you're in the field and get stood up. It's really easy to see other potential prospects in the same area and go canvas. Our agents really like being able to manage all their mileage, expenses, and so forth for tax season.\nFrom the administrative side, I like that when an agent leaves it automatically flags all the clients, prospects, leads, apps, policies, etc, as orphans, and I can reassign them to someone else. The \"Agency Central\" dashboard makes things kind of fun, too, as we can chat, look at standings, and provide training. There's really so much here, that it would take pages to cover all the features. As far as having everything under one system, this is as close as we've found. The lady who owns the company is very visible and personable, as well, and it has more of a community feel to it than just a software system.\nIt's hard to ignore Sales Force, just because they're such a huge name. Like pipe-drive, it's not specific to the insurance industry, but it's very customizable to fit pretty much any kind of business you have. If there's one big downside to Sales Force, it's the cost. At least, when we were using it, the system can get very pricey. It seems like their target market is more the enterprise business, rather than the small business.\nSales Force is very good at doing what it does though, which is client management, and a wealth of various apps and integrations for just about every service you would ever need. Email apps, social apps, lead distribution, etc. They've also custom-built some systems specifically for some of the big insurance companies. I heard recently from an old contact that Bankers Life had a system designed for them by Sales Force fairly recently. Physicians Mutual, last I heard, was also using them. Ultimately, it didn't really have the solution we were looking for, which was everything in one place, but it's quality software and a well-known name in the business.",

        "raw_content": "The Automation Waltz\nBy Paul PierpointAugust 5, 2011Technical\nWhen you have a bunch of machines involved in a process, you need to ensure that various stages in this process have executed. If the target host is unavailable, you want a guarantee that the job will execute when the host becomes available again. This is well beyond the capabilities of ssh in a for-loop.\nIn trying to solve this problem, we had assessed tools like mcollective, but came to the conclusion that they were inappropriate for our environment. mcollective in particular was removed from consideration as it was designed for a more homogeneous environment than the one here at Anchor.\nWhen we realised we needed a different solution, a few of us gathered around a whiteboard and started enumerating our requirements. The result was Orchestra, which we\u2019re releasing today under the BSD License.\nOrchestra is a suite for managing the reliable execution of tasks over a number of hosts. It is intended to be simple and secure, leaving more complicated coordination and tasks to tools better suited for those jobs.\nBecause everybody loves this web development stuff, it was developed to provide an interface that operates asynchronously in relation to the\nexecution of the work being done, allowing for cheap and easy polling of job state.\nAnd last, but not least, because having critical system services depend on potentially fragile language interpreters or their libraries is generally a really bad idea for reliability, it was completely implemented in Go \u2013 a type-safe static language that compiles to native code and includes many features derived from dynamic languages. Despite this, the work units it executes for you can be written in any language you like.\nOrchestra itself is far from finished, but it\u2019s working reliably enough that we\u2019re already using it in production in a very limited capacity, and have been slowly extending it\u2019s reach into new areas as appropriate.\nWe\u2019d love you to take a look and see if it works for you, we\u2019re open to suggestions and contributions for improvement.

It is the southernmost and largest island in the Mariana island chain and is also the largest island in Micronesia .Guam is the closest land mass to the Mariana Trench , a deep subduction zone , that lies beside the island chain to the east. Challenger Deep , the deepest surveyed point in the Oceans , is southwest of Guam at 35,797 feet (10,911 m) deep. The highest point in Guam is Mount Lamlam , which is 1,332 feet (406 m), and surprisingly, is also considered the tallest mountain in the world from below sea level, since it extends in to the Mariana Trench .The island of Guam is 30 miles (48 km) long and 4 mi (6 km) to 12 mi (19 km) wide. The island experiences occasional earthquakes due to its location on the western edge of the Pacific Plate and near the Philippine Sea Plate . In recent years, earthquakes with epicenters near Guam have had magnitudes ranging from 5.0 to 8.7. Unlike the Anatahan volcano in the Northern Mariana Islands , Guam is not volcanically active. [7] However, due to its proximity to Anatahan, vog does occasionally affect Guam. [8] The northern part of the island is a forested coralline limestone plateau while the south contains volcanic peaks covered in forest and grassland. A coral reef surrounds most of the island, except in areas where bays exist that provide access to small rivers and streams that run down from the hills into the Pacific Ocean and Philippine Sea.

        "raw_content": "Sources of friction: Why investment expertise often fails to help you and what you can do about it\nMost of the time when I talk to people about the investment industry I get the distinct sense that they would rather talk about almost anything else. While there are certainly many potential causes for such an understated response, I also don't get the sense that an overwhelming degree of satisfaction is usually one of them. Rather, there seems to be a persistent state of frustration lurking under the surface that occasionally reveals itself in comments like, \"I'd like to be able to get more confident with my investing\u201d, and, \"Do you ever get to talk to the person managing the money?\"\nTo the extent that lurking frustration exists, it is not for lack of investment expertise. Not only are there thousands upon thousands of investment professionals, but there are also terrific credential programs like the CFA and the CFP, a substantial and diverse active management industry that has a business model predicated on developing proprietary insights, and research that suggests it works. For example, the study \"Best Ideas\" [Cohen, Polk, and Silli, 2010] shows that the typical active money manager actually does outperform with his/her best ideas (the problem is that most portfolios also contain a lot of other ideas that aren't nearly as good).\nSo why do investors continue to be frustrated when all of this expertise is available? The answer, in a word, is friction.\nSources of friction\nJust like the progress of any vehicle is slowed down by the friction created by its contact with the road, so too is the efficient transfer of investment expertise constrained by a variety of structural sources of \u201cfriction\u201d in the industry.\nOne important source of investment friction is the tendency of many firms to focus more on the business of investment management than on the profession of investing. Because the universe of significant investment opportunities is limited in a competitive environment, managers must settle for progressively less attractive alternatives as a fund grows larger -- and this dilutes performance. The conflict of interest between an investment manager's desire to grow assets (and therefore business profits) and an investor's desire for a smaller fund focused exclusively on best ideas is one way in which investment expertise often fails to benefit clients.\nA second source of friction is essentially a corollary of the first: Many firms fail to focus on the types of activities that are closely associated with generating superior investment returns. For example, many firms persist in charging high fees for investment services despite widespread evidence that high fees detract from returns. Many run portfolios that look very similar to their benchmarks rather than concentrating on best ideas (i.e., high active share). Many react (and overreact) to short-term results for which there is very little information content (i.e., low signal to noise ratio). Each of these types of activities is a well-known structural impediment to good investment performance and each is the result of a choice, a tradeoff, made by an organization's leaders. While it is unfortunate such impediments exist, they are absolutely avoidable.\nA third source of friction is over-specialization. When an environment remains stable for a long period of time the most successful entities are those that focus on a very narrow area of expertise. Examples include narrowly defined functional silos such as industry-specific analyst coverage and very narrowly defined investment mandates. In such an environment, flexible business approaches and policies to insure against large losses represent unnecessary opportunity costs. In a more tumultuous environment, however, the costs of focusing too narrowly can be debilitating and sometimes even deadly. It's fine to pack only swim suits and t-shirts for the beach as long as the weather stays nice. If it gets cold and rainy, you'll wish you had better choices.\nWhile various sources of friction often prevent investors from deriving as much benefit as they might from the industry, the good news is that they also provide a clear target for improvement. If you want things to run more smoothly and efficiently, just reduce or eliminate the sources of friction. For investment firms this is simply a matter of making policy choices -- of choosing to focus, on the margin, more on the exercise of investing than on the business of investment management. For investors, this is just a matter of identifying the firms that are not only willing to accept, but to actually encourage, making the tradeoffs that benefit investment results.\nAnother way for investors to derive more benefit from the investment services industry is to find better user interfaces. Steve Jobs revolutionized the computer industry by developing a graphical user interface (GUI) that made it much easier for normal people to interact with computers. The same needs to be done with investment firms. While a great deal of investment expertise does exist, only a small subset of that resides with organizations that have cultures truly oriented to helping people. Without such a culture, the path of least resistance is for that expertise to first benefit investment firms and their employees.\nThe investment services industry is interesting as a case study because it defies so many well established norms in other industries. Exceptionally few businesses in a competitive environment can afford to persist with processes and behaviors that impede performance and client satisfaction. If you went to a nice restaurant and ordered an expensive meal and the waiter came out and just threw it down in front of you without explanation and walked away, you would probably be miffed and might consider never coming back. Oddly, the same behavior happens with investment firms all the time -- except in these cases investors tend to resign themselves to accepting such treatment. You can do better, but you will almost certainly need to look for new approaches that avoid old, and predictable, sources of friction.\nEric Sheldon\nDave, how are you doing? Seems like a few too many words to say what you meant. That is my two cents. Best wishes!",

After finding myself visiting supermarkets just to stare at rows of pretty packaging, I decided I had a serious colour-deficit in my life, and needed to do something about it. I bought a few canvasses and started throwing colour around to see what would happen, and eventually found myself gravitating back to my love of the natural world.\nNow I work exclusively with acrylics on canvas and love the sense of immediacy and vibrant colours these produce. I still take inspiration from the wildlife and sweeping landscapes of the Scottish Borders but, in the paintings themselves, I like to draw the viewer\u2019s attention from the general to the particular, as if peeling back the public layers to reveal a specific, private moment in time \u2013 a kingfisher\u2019s dive, or a cow\u2019s inquisitive lick, for example. The backgrounds of my paintings are generally fairly neutral and without distraction in order to focus on the smaller expressions of beauty inherent in our everyday lives. I also try to reflect that in some of the slightly quirky characters I create. I hope they make you smile.",

        "raw_content": "Metamorphic Histories | Lui Medina\nThe UP Vargas Museum in cooperation with Artinformal opens Lui Medina\u2019s solo exhibition Metamorphic Histories on 10 December 2013, Tuesday, 4PM at the GF Lobby and West Wing Gallery of the museum.\nMedina probes the \u201cnatural\u201d as her works take off from lapis lazuli, a rock esteemed as a gemstone and as a color. Akin to her previous works where she uses geological forms, Medina transforms these objects into precious items that mimic the value of a museum collection. In Metamorphic Histories, a series consisting of paintings and small sculptural plaster works, she explores the possibilities and capabilities of history-making, not only that of the distant past, but also the mundane, violent and recurring stories of everyday. The exhibition calls to mind current events, both on a national and personal histories; situations that deal with ideas of fragility, brokenness and ultimately, metamorphosis.\nLui Medina (b. 1981) graduated from the University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts in 2003 and Master of Fine Arts in Painting at the Slade School of Art in London in 2008. She had participated in exhibitions in Manila, Philippines, Hong Kong and London, UK. She is currently the exhibition adviser of the M.A. in Fine Arts and Design (MAFAD) Program of the Philippine Women\u2019s University.\nMetamorphic Histories runs until February 8, 2014.\n0 Responses to \"Metamorphic Histories | Lui Medina\"",

It is not there anymore; it was taken out at the end of the 2006-07 ski season. A sign posted in the display said \"Original 10th Mountain Equipment.\" Photos of it as it existed when it was on display are below.\nMany thanks to William Drake for providing (on August 3, 2014) this important information about these items: \"My mother and I started collecting 10th MT stuff in the mid 90's to celebrate our kitchen manager's late husband who was a 10th veteran (Ken Isakson). By around the 1999-2000 season, we had filled all the wall space on the upper floor of the restaurant, thanks largely to many local 10th veterans like Steve Knowleton, Bert Bidwell and Gus Ball. When we sold the restaurant in 2007, and the new owners made it clear that they had no interest in maintaining the display, we returned all the photos, magazines and equipment to their rightful owners and donated everything we had collected ourselves to the Aspen Historical Society, the Colorado Ski Museum and a few local collectors. Richard Allen from www.vintageskiworld.com was also a great resource for period equipment.\"\nOne item that was included in the display was a photo of Bert Bidwell, who was responsible for the 10th Mountain Division Sculpture and Plaque at Aspen Mountain, which is covered on this site here: http://www.aspensnowmassshrines.com/index.php?1-10th-Mountain-Division-Sculpture-And-Plaque-Aspen-Mountain)",

        "raw_content": "ONLINE > RECOLLECTION issue 1 Menu > May You Pirate In Interesting Times\nMay You Pirate In Interesting Times:\nA Peek into the North American C64 Scene (circa 1983-1990), and Other Ramblings...\nby The Shark of International Network of Chaos (INC)\nThe old North American scene... Visions of rushed releases, endless wars, and multiple intros per release all come to mind for many people part of the newer scene.\nStill, despite these negative labels, the old scene was the most fascinating era on the C64 due to the mass wave of releases, the large number of users, and the technical advances occurring weekly. During this incredible time, the scene could be divided into two primary regions -- Europe and North America. Today, I'll be giving you a peek into the old North American scene...where, through the ubiquitous modems, warez moved fast and furious.\nFirst, let's look at the birth of a pirate in the America. After all, to understand the scene, you have to know the players. It's well known that the C64 was marketed as the first affordable family computer of its time. With the primary market being middle to mid-lower class citizens, the average family could afford 1-2 software titles per month at $30-$40 per title. For your average game, this was a hard price to swallow since arcade games were still $0.25 a credit. Next, factor in that many of the C64 users were 10-18 years old -- not exactly you're most responsible age group. When a kid saves up his allowance to buy a game only to find out that he just bought a stinker, certainly there is going to be some resentment aimed at the gaming industry. Finally, and most importantly, the temptation of hundreds of free software games is too strong to resist even for a preacher's son.\nThis is where the rationalization comes in. You think to yourself, \"What harm is it to pirate this game that I couldn't afford to begin with?\" You think some more...You convince yourself that it's not as if you are taking money from the programmers because you never were going to buy the game to begin with. Nothing physical is being taken. In fact, you tell yourself, you are simply duplicating software, a harmless crime. And so you cross the line guilt free with a smile your face as if you had just beaten an unjust, greedy system. But who is kidding whom here? With the potential for all those free games, there really is no rationalization going on in a teenager's head.\nNot all pirates start this way -- some are just as greedy as the software industry or have little morals to begin with. But I think the above describes how many pirates start off -- pissed at the gaming industry and unable to resist all the free games. This entry-level pirate, as you will later read, can often mutate into the hardcore scener.\nWhen you become a pirate, certainly you'll need others to trade with. In the young 80s, many American C64 users would trade software at school, through friends, or at local C64 user groups. It seemed that nearly everyone who owned a C64 pirated at some level, and those who didn't could be detected by their personality or simply by their lack of knowledge about the pirating world. You simply didn't bring up the subject around such people, although the authorities back then really cared less. The primary targets were the mass spreaders of software or the people profiting on the sale of pirated software. And the focus was usually on the more expensive software found on other computer systems such as IBM-PCs. Nonetheless, you seldom would volunteer your piracy status to non-pirates back then just to be safe.\nMuch of the software at this time was \"cracked\" through Mike J. Henry's \"Fast Hack'em\", a commercial program that would remove software protection for most of the major titles. Due to this automated cracking, the cracker in this case didn't really feel like he achieved a major accomplishment. Thus, much of the early software passed around had no mention of the party responsible for initial violation. Occasionally, though, you would see text on the title screen of a cracked game stating something like, \"The Bandit was here\" or \"Cracked by Mr. Disk\". As a young pirate you would wonder who these mysterious people were but at the same time marvel at their defiant abilities.\nOver time, informal trading networks were formed. Sometimes trading was done through the mail, although this was less common in North America compared to Europe. Usually your mail-trade partners were a cousin or a good friend because you needed to ensure that you would get something in return (after all, those disks were expensive for kids back then). If you had an out-of-state trade partner, you were likely considered to be \"the man\" among your locals since you'd often receive different games than what everyone else had already passed around. This kind of power (i.e., controlling the warez) can get to a kid's head so, like in any society, the scene formed hierarchical levels. The more games you had as well as how quickly you obtained them decided your status. And note, pirates aren't exactly full-fledged Robin Hoods -- they can be very generous, but they often do expect something in return for \"their\" software. If you had no warez to offer in return, eventually your contacts would cut you off until you offered something new. Cutting off a contact was almost fun. They'd call asking if you had any new warez. You'd say, \"nope\" or you simply wouldn't return the call.\nThose who couldn't get new warez eventually got the hint.\nIt was at this time that you were likely labelled a 'lamer' by your former contact. The label, though, didn't apply to everyone who lacked the latest warez. People who could show skill on the C64, such as programmers and artists, were seldom given the lamer label even when their warez collection was small/old. In addition, you could be a lamer to the people above you while being a key contact to people below you. So there was a place for everyone, and most everyone was at least partially pleased since the warez eventually flowed downward.\nNear the mid-80s, the scene underwent a monumental change. An incredible device for the C64 was now affordable -- the modem. Believe it or not, at one time people on the C64 actually used 300-baud modems. Even for its time, this modem was considered slow by most, but it was bearable since now you could get software from someone 45 minutes away without leaving your chair. Although the modem was so slow that you could probably drive over and copy the game faster than the modem could transfer it, a 45-minute drive for a teenager was a tough feat if you had no car or even a driving license. But the modem wasn't just about getting games. The modem became the lifeline of the scener for tools, games, information, entertainment, meeting new people, etc. And note, most American cities had unlimited local phone calls for a flat fee, so sitting on your modem all day was not an monetary issue like in Europe.\nWith the popularity of the modem booming, a new problem presented itself. Unless games were properly cracked, people were unable to send them over the modem. Fast Hack'em cracks often were only suitable for full-disk copying since part of the software protection involved hiding files on the disk. Since a full disk copy would copy even the hidden files, it didn't matter if the files were hidden or not. With modems, though, the software back then could only transfer files (visible files that is). This meant that people had to get these games to a state that we called \"fully cracked\" (to distinguish it from a Fast Hack'em crack). (Note, eventually zipping tools were released that allowed the transferring of the semi-cracked games.)\nWith a cracker putting in so much effort to fully crack a game, naturally enough he would want to place his alias somewhere on the crack. But by now, with so many people trading software with each other (mostly with friends), the idea of working alone was on its way out. And thus the pirating group was formed. The first pirating groups consisted of all local members who were friends before the group formed. They'd create a group name often bolding stating what they did and where they were from (e.g., the \"Philadelphia Cracking Group\" or \"East Side Crackers\").\nWith the modem allowing games to be spread quicker, groups discovered that their cracks were getting spread state-wide or even to neighbouring states. With such exposure, a simple little text message in the title screen of the game was no longer sufficient. Something much more grandiose would be needed! And so the intro was created. Simple compared to today's standards -- often a static picture perhaps with the group's logo and all the member names listed. Back then, though, this was jaw dropping since here now was a group of pirates who had joined forces. More strikingly however were their brash attitudes expressed by their \"look at us\" intro. It was as if they were standing on a hill top shouting, \"Everyone! We did this, and we dare you to stop us!\"\nNear the same time as this modem and cracking revolution was beginning, the Bulletin Board System (BBS) world was growing rapidly. Rather than trying to coordinate a time with your contacts for transferring files, there were now dedicated systems out there where you could upload/download software as well as post messages to all or even individual users. This hugely increased the availability of software further speeding up the distribution. Looking back, what I now find so fascinating about BBSes was that they only had a single phone line. Thus, they had the capacity for only one user at a time. (Note, there were some BBSes that handled multiple users, but those were extremely rare.)\nWith people now a little closer to each other on the BBSes, something interesting began to form -- competition. In order for a group's intro to be seen, that group would have to have their warez on the BBSes. But now with multiple groups all trying to use the same distribution method, only the fastest would survive. And it wasn't just a matter of who could crack the fastest. You had to buy the game quick as well or at least hope that the shipments to the store were quick. Since the production locations for the software houses were scattered through out America, one region could get the game quicker than another.\nTo make competition even more interesting, another big scene development was also occurring about the same time. Phone calling cards were becoming very popular with the American consumer since it allowed you to take your long distance service along with you. The security codes for these calling cards were initially pathetic. A five-digit code would be given to each paying customer. This code wasn't appended to the user's phone number; it was a stand-alone code. Thus, if a company had 5,000 customers, you had a one in twenty chance of finding a valid code! Perhaps these companies figured that not many people would manually try to hack their code pool. They were right in that regard. Sceners simple would use hacking software and let their modems do the work while they slept. You would awake with anywhere from 5-10 new codes a night that would last you a good three months. With little tracing going on back then, hacking these numbers was extremely safe. Note, some pirates, especially in Canada, could Blue Box. This involved generating a tone of certain frequency into your phone receiver causing you to get someone else's dial tone. I think the process involved calling most any 800 number and then blowing the tone. From there, you'd get their dial tone. But I should say that it was rare to meet a Blue Boxer on the C64 scene since the phone companies were pretty much preventing it from working by the mid-80s.\nWith calling cards, or codez, now readily available, sceners began phreaking (calling for free illegally). Very rapidly the idea of competing locally now turned into competing regionally (i.e., SouthWest) and then eventually from coast to coast. Initial competition wasn't too intense, and for the most part it was friendly. There were plenty of warez for everyone, and no one really took the competition too seriously. The idea of trading software long distance was still new to many so it took a while for efficient spreading of the software to become common place. But software was certainly moving faster than ever, and with games being released by the truckload, there were times where either you didn't have enough time or blank disks to download everything.\nSimilar to the local pirating communities, the BBSes also had a class system based on how quickly one obtained warez. The best BBSes soon advertised that they received warez \"0 dayz old\". Lower on the totem pole would be 0-3 dayz, 0-5 dayz, and then after that people usually just didn't mention how old their warez were. (In case you haven't noticed, pirates love z's.) The real lame BBSes that catered to mostly local callers would often front as a public domain BBS. Only if the BBS operator (SYSOP) knew you were part of the scene would they give you access to the pirating section of the BBS. Elite BBSes on the other hand were private and usually required you to have references to gain access. Another sign of eliteness on BBSes were the type of download credit systems pirates were placed on. A credit system was needed in order to prevent leeching (the art of obtaining pirated software and returning very little in trade). Many BBSes gave users two blocks of download credits for every one block uploaded. This policy varied from board to board. Mega-elite pirates, those who were members of the top pirating groups, usually received unlimited credits since they often uploaded all their new releases. Plus, Sysops loved to boast about their user lists so they would offer unlimited \"creditz\" to the most famous pirates.\nShortly after the mid-80s the BBS scene really started to roll when 1200-baud modems became affordable. I can't begin to tell you how pleasant it was to quadruple your transfer speed. By now, warez spreading was very organized with groups utilizing designated software runners (simply called 'spreaders') whose sole purpose was to spread warez to as many BBSes as possible. Spreaders were needed in order for groups to rightfully claim that they were the first to release a particular warez title.\nGroups now counted their victories by how many 'first-releases' they had and how popular the cracked titles were. Releasing highly anticipated games such as Maniac Mansion, Defender of the Crown, Beach Head II, Winter Games, etc., were seen as massive victories to pirating groups.\nWith the scene quickly maturing, not only was the competition more intense and organized, but now pirating was becoming more about group promotion rather than people trying to get new warez. Group intros evolved into elaborate displays containing animated sprites, multi-colored scrolling text, music, and quality artwork. Being the #1 group on the scene was now the driving goal. In fact, some sceners weren't even playing the games they were releasing. And some sceners would download games released by other groups with the primary purpose of viewing the intro. This weird culture was now made up of what I refer to as \"hardcore scener\" - a mutation of a normal pirate. When a scener no longer plays the games he pirates, something is seriously wrong. (Well, it seemed strange to me!)\nConsidering that hardcore sceners were often immature by default, it was only a matter of time before this organized competition led to wars. Scene wars were usually started by some small act, such as one group member changing groups, and would sometimes escalate into large-scale wars involving groups not even part of the original dispute. Wars often included the following annoyances done to the enemy: spread their phone numbers, crank calling at late hours, have phone lines disconnected, ordering items to their house, and nearly anything else irritating in your bag of tricks. These wars always spilled onto the BBSes providing some of the most humorous ragging of the times. Undoubtedly these wars were very childish, but they did add a little spice to the scene. The group that would release more warez once the war started was considered the victor since actions spoke louder than words on the scene. Plus, the more you released, the bigger fan base you had backing you up helping to declare you the winner. These victories helped strengthen your group's reputation, and reputation on the scene was very important. Reputation was short lived, however. The scene has always had the mentality of \"what have you done lately?\"\nAlthough winning wars helped a group's reputation, the best way to gain respect, as mentioned earlier, was to release many high profile titles. The most prolific C64 American cracking groups to do this were the following: Eagle Soft Inc. (ESI), Untouchable Cracking Force (UCF), North East Crackers (NEC), A Touch of Class (ATC), and No Frills International (NFI). Without a doubt, ESI was the most dominating and the most remembered. Not only did they release some of the hottest games during the C64's golden era, they also had a massive arrogant, elitist attitude further escalating their reputation. Think in terms of how the top 1% of the wealthiest people behave in society and you'll get the idea of their attitudes. For example, only friends of ESI could be on their BBSes (being elite wasn't enough), and only a select few were 'privileged' to speak to their cracker, Mitch (Such a boring alias for someone so famous. Actually, Mitch was his real first name). In essence, Mitch was ESI, and the other members were just riding his coattails. ESI's fame didn't happen overnight, however. It happened over a series of years as they became more and more dominating eventually controlling around 90% of the American cracks. ESI's monopoly had to be preserved at all costs. Any groups competing with them were usually targeted for no reason other than being a threat to their dominance. The only group to ever give them a run for their money was UCF, and eventually UCF fell like the others in the most famous war in C64 history. It was a battle of the two biggest groups on the scene with nearly every other group forced to take one side or the other. ESI, unlike many other groups of the time, contained many adults - men among boys, if you will, who were able to outwit or intimidate their teenage opponents. It all ended in 1987 when JJ the Breaker, UCF's cracker, graduated from high school and headed to the Navy.\nWith no competition in site, ESI's reign eventually ended when Mitch decided to leave the C64 at the end of 1988. The other groups mentioned above all had brief moments of fame, especially NEC. But since NEC's domination existed in the early 90s, a time of few releases and a shrinking C64 scene, their fame could never be compared to ESI.\nThus far, the focus of this article has been on American cracking scene. However, the history of the American scene certainly would not be complete with out also mentioning the European cracking scene. Although I do know quite a bit about the Euro scene from my time, I will only mention Europe from the perspective of the American importer. (It would be much more appropriate if Europeans wrote their own history for obvious reasons.)\nDue to the C64 being released in America prior to Europe, America had a slight head start with creation of C64 software. The vast majority of the early major C64 titles, such as those from Epyx and Electronic Arts, were American. Most American sceners were completely unaware that Europe was making C64 software until about 1985. It was at this time the American scene began to see a few games from \"unknown\" software houses that would occasionally list their country of origin. But none of these games were being released on the store shelves - they were all cracks. Yet somehow they were being transferred over to America.\nDuring this time recall that 300-baud modems were popular, and phreaking on the C64 scene was in its infancy. Although sending the games through the modem overseas would have been possible, modems like the ones used in America were not popular in Europe. Furthermore, many of the calling card companies during the mid-80s would not allow international calls. This meant that phreaking to Europe was extremely difficult unless one Blue Boxed, so people initially traded software the old fashion way - snail mail. At this time, European trade partners were found similar to how American trade partners were found. For the most part, these were close friends or relatives who could be trusted (money for disks and overseas postage added up). And if you thought having an out-of-state trading partner at this time made you \"the man\", then having an overseas contact made you a god. The reason: you now had games that people couldn't even go to the stores and find. Interestingly enough, European games had a different flavour compared to most American games. American games were often more strategic and involved slower game play. European games conversely were often similar to arcade style games in that they required quick hand and eye coordination. This made European games extremely popular among many of the American teenage sceners.\nWith both continents demanding new warez from each side, more and more mail trading was established. By 1986, the European warez were now commonly found in many American sceners' collections. And the number of European warez was growing fast. It seemed that for every one American game released, Europe released five. Part of this was due to Europe releasing budget software, but the primary factor was that the C64 was really taking off in Europe. Evidence of this could be seen in the technical advances found in much of Europe's software. Europe was really much more into the C64 than their American counterparts. And I might jealously add that Europe even had dedicated C64 game magazines unlike in America.\nWith so many European warez available, Americans were now commonly exposed to European crack intros. Just as with the games, Euro intros were of a different style compared to the American crack intros. Often Euro intros would display some nifty programming skills. American crack intros, on the other hand, were commonly made up of a hi-res intro with scrolling text. The two styles of intros massively differed in size since, of course, hi-res takes up a lot of memory. Unlike in America, Europeans were very size conscious with their cracks since they predominately traded warez through the mail (trying to use as few disks as possible). Again, most Europeans at this time didn't have modems, and even if they did, they still had to pay for local phone calls making the post a much cheaper option. Europeans also established organized trading networks just like in the America, but their networks were through the mail. And note that they were much bolder with their personal information compared to the Americans. They often would place their home address and phone numbers in their crack intros providing a convenient way to invite others trade partners.\nThis personal information would come in handy for American sceners when in late 1986 something very wonderful happened - telecommunication companies such as Sprint (with their sweet fiber-optic connections) and MCI began to handle international calls.\nThese were the crown jewels of calling cards, and with international calls being a little more expensive, phone companies were finally wising up. The calling cards at this time grew to about 7-9 digits in length presenting a little more of a challenge to hack. Instead of hacking 5-7 codes a night, you'd often only get 1-3 a night (three if you were lucky!). The good news was that these codes often lasted 2-4 weeks at a time depending on how much use (or abuse) they were getting. With codez becoming harder to obtain, it came to a point where they were becoming more valuable than warez in terms of trade price.\nNow that American sceners had the ability to call overseas, of course the first people they called were the top cracking groups who listed their phone numbers in their crack intros. The only problem was that the Europeans needed modems, and it had to be modems that used the same communication standards. But would the American modems work in European C64s as well as with European phone lines? The only way to tell would be to send a modem to Europe and hope for the best.\nAnd this is exactly what some people did. It was rough going at first since there was often a small delay between the calling parties. Any delays over 0.5 seconds often made the transfer near impossible. Furthermore, international calls back then were often full of random problems such as static, echoes, tones, and cross-line problems. C64 modems were already very sensitive to begin with (no error correction and such). For example, a family member nosily picking up the phone while you were on the modem often caused a disconnection. You can see now why I called Sprint cards \"sweet\".\nI don't know who was the first to make a successful connection to Europe, but I do know that Fucked Beyond Repair (FBR) followed by The Survivors (TS) were some of the more famous early importing groups. That's right, there were groups whose sole purpose was to import software from Europe. After all, not everyone could crack.\nCracking was very difficult task that only C64 programmers could handle. Most sceners were game players - not programmers. In addition, there was hardly enough American games to go around supporting the existing cracking groups. Thus, other sceners hungry for fame found a new niche for themselves. This was true even during the mail trading days with Europe. In fact, importing groups eventually decided to add their intro on top of the European crack intro in order to achieve recognition for their efforts. (This resulted in two intros per imported game. Fun, eh? But getting those codes and putting up was the hassle of overseas transfers was worth at least a pat on the back, right? Hehe) It's interesting to note that the idea of a group performing both importing and cracking wasn't a popular idea until the late 80s. American crack groups felt that cracking was so much more glamorous than importing that to import would be like taking a step down. Despite this view of importing groups, both importing and cracking groups coexisted on very good terms.\nAnyway, modem trading with Europe suddenly shaved 10-15 days off the amount of time it took to get warez across the Atlantic. And once multiple Europeans had modems, America acted as a bridge back into Europe helping to spread the Europeans' cracks around Europe faster. Naturally, the European cracking groups who had modems were at an extreme advantage when it came to winning the warez races in Europe. But note, in Europe, although it was important to be quick, it was also very important to produce a quality crack. A quality crack in Europe meant having mega-trainers, being as small as possible, and including amenities such as the title loading picture. Such cracks were common prior to the modem days since the cracker could have all night before the mail ran the next day. Conversely, in America, being the first with the working game was primary goal. Since Americans used modems with free calls, size meant very little. Time was of the essence. Just a difference of an hour between two crackers could be enough for one cracking group to claim the \"first-release\" victory since the spreading network was so quick. European groups with modems eventually succumbed to the American way in order to win the race. Except for the freeze-cracks (the lamer way of cracking), most of these fast European cracks were still cracked with pride. Freeze-cracks, done with the aid a cartridge, were hugely frowned upon since they were often very large and somewhat buggy.\nWith the European-to-America communication hurdle now solved (well, at least tolerable), there now would be a smooth flow of warez going back in forth causing an integration of the two scenes. However, there were new problems on the horizon. The prime issue was a compatibility problem causing headaches for many importers.\nSoftware relying on minor hardware differences between European and American C64s was causing some new European games to be unplayable on American machines. The root of this issue was caused by dimensional differences between European (PAL) and American (NTSC) TVs, which forced Commodore to make some minor variations between C64s sold in two continents. In short, Commodore wanted to utilize the extra screen space found on European TVs, which is understandable since they probably never envisioned the two continents sharing much software. Of course, any European program using this part of the screen would get that part chopped off on NTSC TVs. Another problem dealt with European games utilizing timing techniques based on the larger screen. The larger screen gave them more time per raster update to do various calculations or image movements compared to American systems. Advanced video games often require precise timing, so even minor delays caused lock-ups or garbled graphics. Lucky for Europe, it was rare that an American game wouldn't work on their European systems (unless the game had some interesting disk loader).\nThe PAL-NTSC problem was seldom an issue prior to 1987 since most games didn't really push the C64's technology. But by this time Europe was beginning to push the C64 abilities into new realms beyond what the original creators of the machine had envisioned. As more and more games failed to work on the American systems, American programmers finally decided to come up with ways to fix the problem. Sadly, it is unknown who was the first to NTSC fix some of these games. What I can tell you is that scene legend Mitch/ESI fixed a few of the earlier games (and he seldom took credit for it!). There was also a programmer by the name Blackhawk from Rowdy American Distributors (RAD), a popular importing group, who gained some fame as an NTSC fixer in 1987.\nBy 1988, it seemed that around 25% of the warez from Europe needed an NTSC fix. Importing groups who didn't have a sharp programmer who knew how to fix were soon surpassed in the standings. Plus, since the best games often used the best technology, groups with NTSC fixers were able to release some top-notch warez. Two groups who thrived at this during this time were Exodus and my own group, INC. Among Exodus' ranks was perhaps the greatest NTSC fixer of all time, Stormbringer. Keep in mind that fixing was a difficult art, to say the least, left to the more advanced programmers. And the knowledge of how to fix wasn't exactly passed around much due to the competition.\nNTSC fixing wasn't the only pain for importers. Also in 1988, phone companies once again were improving their counter measures against hackers. International calling cards were now starting to be based off peoples' home phone numbers. With a four-digit pin appended to an American phone number, calling card were now 14 digits long, a length improbably to randomly hack with a C64 modem. In addition, phone companies were now using 800 toll-free numbers instead of local 950 numbers as the access point for the long distance call. Since your phone number would be logged whenever calling an 800 number, one would significantly increase the odds of being caught if they phreaked or hacked through the toll-free number. Unlike with small-scale pirating, phreaking was something that the authorities actively pursued. The reason is that the phone companies had significantly more revenue than the gaming industry giving them much more influence in America. Plus, they often could trace calls of the offender giving them at least some evidence to work with. The game industry couldn't really track pirates in a similar manner.\nWith overseas calling becoming increasingly difficult and risky, a new strategy had to be developed. One idea was to have Europeans call to America since these international calling cards could be used from Europe with little threat of being caught. I don't have the technical details as to why this was so, but I can imagine that it had to do with the phone infrastructures not being nicely compatible in addition to European phone systems using older technology compared to America. This option meant that the flow of warez could continue if somehow the calling cards could be obtained. Of course, where there is a will, there is a way. Enter social engineering. You wouldn't believe how easy it was to call an unsuspecting phone customer and get their calling card directly from them. With a bit of confidence in your tone, and the claim of being from \"AT&T Security\", people would often read their card to you with little hesitation once you explained to them \"the situation\".\nAnd so the warez continued to flow from our brothers in Europe, but now they called us instead of the other way around. They also started to call the American BBSes, and to my humour, soon these European groups were setting up their distribution headquarters on American BBSes just like Americans had done in the years past.\nThe concept of importing was no longer what it used to be due to Europeans now being in direct contact with the American masses. Nonetheless, importing groups still survived since they were the ones who supplied the Europeans with their lifelines - the calling cards. So trading European warez for American calling cards was the new deal, and Europeans would simply snag all the warez they needed from the boards instead of their American trade partner sending them over.\nAlthough the European C64 scene was just starting to embrace phreaking, by 1989, American sceners' own lifelines were beginning to dry up. Obtaining the basic non-international calling cards was even becoming a feat since phone companies continued to advance the technology making it very difficult to hack codez. Sceners now had to rely on hackers for help here. Don't confuse pirates with hackers, by the way. Just because pirates could use their modems to hack calling cards didn't make them hackers. Hackers were an interesting but secluded breed that didn't really care for pirates since they thought of pirates as juveniles (who bugged them for codes all too often). Despite this, hackers would tolerate pirates in order to grab some warez from them now and then. Even hackers enjoyed an occasional game. Plus sceners often tried to befriend a few hackers since they were always good to have on your side during wars. Just having a big name hacker on your side was enough to scare other groups from even considering warring with your group.\nCodez weren't the only item beginning to dry up in 1989. The amount of American games released was starting to dwindle. This was understandable since the C64 wasn't really an upgradeable computer like modern PCs. Thus, here was 1982 technology competing with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and the Commodore Amiga. The NES had already started to slowly chip away many of the C64 freaks since 1985. By 1988, the NES had 65 titles, which was miniscule compared to the thousands on the C64, but the NES was using newer technology and drew in some big game companies. And for the Commodore enthusiasts, many began to head to the Amiga, especially with the Amiga 500 being an economical option. Even in Europe, the number of C64 releases was starting to slow a little (but not as bad as in America). And with the 16-bit Sega Genesis arriving plus the growing popularity of the IBM-compatible PCs, the writing was on the wall - the C64 was headed on its way out.\nDespite the slowdown, there was still enough warez being released to support an active scene - at least for another year. What's interesting though is that some groups were now trying to find ways to acquire more market share. This lead to some importing groups attempting to enter the cracking market as well as some cracking groups trying to enter the importing market - in essence, groups were becoming \"super groups\". This wasn't particularly amazing, but it showed that the rules were changing in the American scene where tradition had previously been hard to break.\nAnother example of changing times was seen when American crackers began to train and crunch their games. It was a case of the European scene influence now rubbing off on America.\nBy 1990, the scene was really starting to hurt. Commercial C64 releases in America was now ridiculously low, and Europe was hit hard too but at least they had some good activity around summer and the Christmas season. At this time, I think there were only 2-3 American cracking groups left, and these groups were usually much smaller than the cracking groups from the 80s. As for importing groups, there were probably around 5-7 serious groups. Phreaking was now primarily done on risky 800 numbers of smaller phone companies since 950 numbers were pretty much gone. Times were changing.\nIt would be safe to say that any American scener hanging out on the C64 at this time was more of a casual scener. This differs from the hardcore scener found in eighties in that the causal scener spent much less time with scene activities. The idea of competition still existed, but just on a smaller scale. The scene would now begin to undergo a metamorphose adopting a new philosophy. Instead of catering to warez races, the new scene was leaning more towards a playground for hobbyist who enjoys pushing our dear machine further. More precise details about the scene from 1991 to the present will have to be presented by someone else since I've now run my course.\nNow for some final thoughts on piracy and the C64 scene. I am not an advocate of piracy, but I think that there is a reason for it. Primarily, people feel as if they are being overcharged, and all indicators say that they are. The software industry is one of the most profitable industries in the world, yet they act as if piracy is going to put them out of business. Well, you can believe them or you can believe the revenue statements. And I'd like to note that the estimates they give for loss of revenues due to piracy is grossly inflated. Their estimates are based on how many people they believe are pirating their software. As I mentioned earlier, there are people who pirate software who would of never bought the software to begin with, so that must be factored in. Furthermore, these companies have incentive to inflate the numbers in order to influence lawmakers to make stricter penalties for piracy. They argue that such strict policies would scare pirates out of piracy further increasing their profits to an even more absurd level. And finally, blaming piracy always serves as a good excuse to have in their back pockets whenever companies fail to make their projected profits.\nI am not saying that because the software industry is profitable that they should be exploited. What I am saying is that they are grossly profitable and therefore they set themselves up to pirates who attempt to defeat what they feel is an unjust system. This is no different from people phreaking to stick it to the phone companies for, again, absurd profits and monopolistic practices. If your phone company undercharges you, do you call them up to let them know of their error? Unlikely. However, if a restaurant undercharges you, do you let them know of their error? Well, depends on the service and the food you received, but most likely you will. The difference is that one may not be trying to stick it to you. It doesn't matter the industry - as long as there are people who feel as if they are getting raped, they will attempt to counter one way or the other. This is basic human nature.\nNow, to address the myth that the C64 and Amiga were the most pirated computers of all time. Nah, the IBM-compatible PC wins that hands down, and look how well it's doing. And how about the myth that piracy killed the C64/Amiga? This was likely started by Commodore or failed software companies on Commodore machines in order to blame others for their own business miscues. Piracy didn't kill the C64. Obsolete technology killed the C64 market. Period. It was 1982 technology trying to survive in 1989. Everyone knows computers have a short life span, especially static computers. Let's not forget that many C64 companies made millions of dollars with C64 software and spawned into major software gaming companies that exist to this date. Companies that didn't survive were likely their own worst enemies. Epyx comes to mind with their reckless business plans in the late 80s. As for the Amiga, it is well documented that Commodore failed to market and support the machine correctly.\nOne reason why PCs did so well is because they could do business applications nicely. So could the Amiga, but Commodore never thought about pumping money into business software. Software sells hardware, not the other way around.\nSo there you have it. piracy and the C64. Happy times. The C64 was a great machine surrounded by a fascinating but strange sub-world that we called \"the scene\". This scene was at the dawn of piracy and during a time of key technical breakthroughs. Although there will always be pirating scenes, they'll likely never again be one quite like the one on the ole' Commodore 64.\nOn behalf of Recollection,",

        "raw_content": "Kicking off the Immigration Legal Clinic in the South Bronx\nA rarer moment of personal space on Brooklyn's Coney Island this past weekend (w/a friend's thumb sharing the photo)\nThe consistent paradox of NYC\nThis begins week 3 of living and working in the Bronx. My first week or so here in NYC, I was admittedly consumed with settling in and establishing some semblance of a routine (still working on that, as a matter of fact). NYC has this way of being simultaneously completely energizing and exhausting. I often find myself oscillating between both of these states multiple times, on the daily. Oof.\nBut there is no doubt that NYC reigns supreme in terms of immigration resources in the US. The sheer number of legal services organizations is astounding. There is so much to do and so much to learn.\nA friend once told me that living and working in NYC, one has to be sure to have a specific intentionality -- or risk being swallowed up by New York's energy.\nI totally agree with this sentiment. Although many of the days, the work and pace of New York life can feel exhausting, there's not a day that goes by where I don't recognize the privilege of being able to be able to live and work here.\nSome immigration stories from the Bronx\nMy humble little office at immigration legal clinic at St. Luke's on E 138th that I am running every Friday -- with a very, very small table. :)\nLast Friday was the first full immigration legal clinic that I ran out of St. Luke's on E 138th here in the South Bronx. I worked with the pastor to put a notice in the weekly bulletin and managed my expectations because it was right before the long holiday weekend.\nBut the clinic was very busy and I consulted clients back to back. Here are some of their stories:\n1. There was a woman who is a community leader here in the South Bronx -- she has been leading one of the community organizational efforts here for almost 20 years -- and has been awaiting her citizenship status this entire time. She was granted Temporary Protected Status from Honduras and her wait has been long and arduous. As she told me: \"I've been working in this community for almost 20 years. What more do I need to do to be officially a member of this country?\"\n2. Another woman around my age came in and asked several questions on behalf of her family members -- a mother who wanted to establish citizenship from a green card -- and a brother who had already paid nearly $15,000 for another lawyer who didn't file the paperwork on time. She told me that there were hardly any immigration lawyers in the South Bronx and that she and many of her family/friends had to travel to Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn in order to receive help.\nI was simultaneously surprised and not so surprised to hear the news. But living and working in a community that is predominantly Latino -- it feels as though there should be more legal resources existing here within the community.\nI also spoke with a friend who works at a nearby community organization a handful of blocks away from where I'm living at the moment. She also confirmed the lack of local immigration attorneys who are able to advise.\nTo me, the situation reiterates the seemingly NYC paradoxical notion of having so many people around -- but a lack of resources.\n3. A man came by with a corrected version of his citizenship test and we went over some of the answers together. He told me that he is going to take the exam in two months and that he is very much looking forward to that next step.\nAnd, I have heard others mention this, but wanted to confirm: that citizenship test is pretty tricky. I can nearly guarantee that many Americans would not know many answers on that exam. Without a doubt, there are new immigrants in this country who undoubtedly know more about American history than Americans themselves.\nSpotted on the Lower East Side...\nIt's another week with the legal clinic this Friday and I am also doing some pro bono work with Make the Road out in Jackson Heights, Queens. More to come soon!",

        "raw_content": "How Australian Bollards could have prevented the tram crash in Kew\nby: Australian Bollards on Tuesday, May 17, 2016\nThe use of bollards could have protected a residency in Kew after a tram was hit by a car and forced from the tracks, smashing into the home.\nThe tram derailed when it was struck by a car at around 11:15pm last night, proceeding to slam into the front of the property near High and Childers Street, knocking over the gas meter in the process.\nA man sleeping in the home was not harmed but the house has suffered significant damage, while the driver, a 58 year old woman, was initially trapped in her vehicle and later treated for minor injuries in hospital.\nHad bollards been installed in front of the affected area, the tram would have collided with the preventative measures and the impact to the house would have been neutralised. Australian Bollards offer a vast range with features including high impact and anti-ram raid capabilities suited to coping with excessive force from fast moving vehicles like trams, cars and other vehicles.\nIn fact, there are specific bollards tailored to protect gas meters from suffering impairment. The presence of one of these Gas Meter Bollards would certainly have been a handy investment on this occasion.\nResidential homes are not the only locations at risk. Cafes, work sites, bars, restaurants and shops are all common in high traffic areas where the likelihood of vehicle collision is strong and as a result, should be secured against potential smashes.\nThankfully, no one was hurt on this occasion. However, this isn\u2019t a risk worth taking and through the installation of premium products from Australian Bollards, there is an ideal preventative solution.",

        "raw_content": "Why I Started Wearing The Hijab?\n(Dwana Colourblock Panel Maxi Dress/Soho Micro by Sometime x Poplook/Black Wedges from H&M)\nI get really interesting questions about my hijab time to time. Especially when I meet new people who are non-Muslim. To be honest, I really like it that people are actually interested to know about the concept of modesty and hijab. One of the top questions I usually get is why I wear the hijab?\nI was once the girl who kept saying, I will wear it one day. But it hit me one day, who sets the date? Who makes the decision? It's me. I wasn't even sure why I was not wearing one. My mum never force it on me. She taught me well actually. She sent me to extra religious classes on weekends and taught me the importance of covering up. But she's not the kind who will tell me that I can't go out unless I'm wearing it.\nWhen I graduated from poly and started looking for a job, I knew in my heart that I have to start wearing it one day. So for the first job interview I attended, I decided to wear it. At that point of time, the last time I wore it was probably slightly less than a decade ago.\nSo what actually made me do it...\nI had it on the whole day and it made me feel calm and protected. I had no men trying to take a peek at my chest or staring at my thighs.\nI saw the way my mum looked at me when she saw me in my hijab. She was beaming. I knew I made her proud.\nPeople know I was a Muslim. In Singapore, we always have the mindset that being Malay = Muslim. That's not true, of course but that's another topic for another day. The foreigners are not so familiar with that. I like it that people only need to look at me once and they know I am a Muslim woman.\nOn a lighter note, my hair is long and luscious after wearing the hijab. I don't have to go to the salon every 3 months to get it coloured too. I still make sure my hair is well taken care of though. The hijab is not an excuse to ignore those locks!\nAll that covered skin? Girl, you have no idea what the sun can do to our skin. I did a skin test the other day and the amount of moisture I have on my neck and my face is quite a huge difference. The woman who was doing the test for me told me that it is most likely because the skin on my neck is covered. I am 90% protected from the vicious sun.\nBottomline is, it makes me happy. I feel much more comfortable. If any of you girls are struggling, please don't hesitate to email me. I would love to listen!\nhttp://rougeandruche.com/2016/01/25/why-i-wear-the-hijab/\nhttps://sunglowandme.wordpress.com/2016/01/24/why-im-wearing-hijab/\nhttps://pearlmirror.wordpress.com/2016/01/25/why-i-started-wearing-the-hijab-world-hijab-day/?preview=true\nhttp://www.lilpink.info/2016/01/hijab-diaries-why-i-prefer-to-wear-hijab.html\nLabels: fashion , Featured , hijab , hijabi blogger , muslimah , reflections\n10 comments on \"Why I Started Wearing The Hijab?\"\nLiyana M. Hidhir January 25, 2016 at 11:41 PM\nGreat post! My mother never pressured me into wearing the hijab either, though that was something that many people assume before they ask me about it. I think it's great to have somebody who supports you, rather than pressures you, and it really helps you to embrace the hijab more positively. And I absolutely agree - at the end of the day, we make our own decisions and bear their outcomes, whatever they may be :-)\nhttp://rougeandruche.com\nTiq Zulkifli January 26, 2016 at 11:02 PM\nAlhamdulillah.

        "raw_content": "BAHEP to honor Mayor Sylvester Turner with Silver Anniversary Quasar Award\nBay Area Houston Economic Partnership will honor Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner with its esteemed Quasar Award on the Silver Anniversary of this prestigious event, which will be held on Jan. 26 at the South Shore Harbour Resort in League City.\nThe Quasar Award recognizes an outstanding elected official or business leader who, through his or her actions and leadership, has demonstrated a strong and continual effort to support the business foundations of the greater Bay Area Houston communities.\nThe recipient\u2019s actions must have gone above and beyond to promote the economic development of the region and the fulfillment of the Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership\u2019s objectives to recruit, retain and expand primary jobs in the region. The award is presented during the organization\u2019s formal Quasar Award banquet, which annually brings together nearly 700 individuals who celebrate and congratulate the honoree.\n\u201cSignificantly, Mayor Turner has stepped forth to champion the coastal spine system to protect the region from hurricane storm surge,\u201d BAHEP President Bob Mitchell said in announcing the award. \u201cAdditionally, his work to ensure a fiscally sound City of Houston will be a lasting testament to his outstanding leadership for decades to come. Mayor Turner\u2019s foresight has contributed immeasurably to the economic strength of Bay Area Houston.\u201d\nHouston City Councilman Dave Martin, whose district includes Bay Area Houston, said, \u201cMayor Sylvester Turner has been and continues to be a strong proponent for Bay Area Houston. Spearheading the city\u2019s efforts to implement pension reform, addressing our mobility and infrastructure initiatives, and fostering a strong economic development agenda for the Bay Area region, are the cornerstones of Mayor Turner\u2019s first two years in office.\n\u201cWith the mayor\u2019s strong endorsement of the coastal spine system, our Bay Area homes and business will be protected from future hurricane surge,\u201d he added.\nElected in December 2015, Mayor Turner is serving his first four-year term as Houston\u2019s 62nd mayor. Since taking office, he eliminated a $160 million budget shortfall in record time, led the city\u2019s remarkable rebound from Hurricane Harvey, expanded municipal investments in renewable energy, and led the winning bid to host the World Petroleum Congress in 2020.\nAs the head of the energy capital of the world and the most diverse city in the nation, Mayor Turner has brought a performance-driven approach to the job, creating more responsive, streamlined and efficient delivery of city services while shoring up Houston\u2019s financial future.\nOne of the mayor\u2019s signature initiatives is Complete Communities, which aims to improve the quality of life for residents in all neighborhoods. The mayor\u2019s other priorities include filling more than 90,000 potholes on city streets, implementing a six-point holistic plan for addressing homelessness, reducing flooding, and improving drainage.\nMayor Turner\u2019s civic leadership has been nationally recognized through his service as a member of the U.S. Conference of Mayors Transportation and Communications Standing Committee, vice chairman of the National Climate Action Agenda, member of the C40 and Global Covenant for Mayor\u2019s for Climate and Energy, and an advisory board member of the African American Mayors Association.\nPrior to his election as mayor, Mayor Turner served for 27 years in the Texas House as the representative for District 139. He worked on the House Appropriations Committee for 21 years and served as Speaker Pro Tem for three terms. He was appointed to several Budget Conference committees to help balance the state\u2019s budget and served on the Legislative Budget Board.\nMayor Turner is a life-long resident of Houston and lives in the Acres Homes community where he grew up with eight siblings. He is a graduate of the University of Houston and earned a law degree from Harvard University. He began his law practice at Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P. and later founded the Barnes & Turner Law Firm.\nPrevious recipients of the Quasar Award are:\n1994 Texas Gov. Ann Richards\n1995 U. S. Rep.

        "raw_content": "What is unequally yoked?\nIntroduction. Our question has reference to Paul's teaching to the Corinthians. Paul wrote: \"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers...\" (2 Cor. 6: 14). Unequally yoked in 2 Corinthians 6: 14 is translated from the Greek heterozugountes. Heterozugountes is a compound word made up of heteros, another of a different sort and zugos, a yoke, serving to couple two things.\nThe unequal yoke, an application. The text in which the unequal yoke prohibition is found is generally discussing a yoking of opposites, such as the temple of God and idols; righteousness and unrighteousness; light and darkness (vs. 16, 14). Notice that Paul is not simply forbidding a yoking together, but the yoking of two things that are severely opposite and incongruous. It is important to notice that the \"unbeliever\" of the First Century was usually a pagan who aggressively worshipped idols and sought to convert others to his idols. Many Christians have learned too late as to why they should not form business yokes with the dishonest and morally deprived.\nThe unequal yoke and marriage. One common view of 2 Corinthians 6: 14 is that Paul is teaching that it is inherently a sin for a Christian to be married to a non-Christian. However, the passage does not mention marriage. In addressing marriages between the Christian and the content unbeliever, Paul instructed the marriage to continue (1 Cor. 7: 12-16). If such a union had automatically been a sin, Paul would have required the dissolution of all such marriages. Nonetheless, it is not recommended for the Christian to marry a non-Christian.\nConclusion. The paramount lesson of the prohibition against the unequal yoke is that God must be put first in the life of the Christian (Matt. 6: 33). Regarding the yoking together of extremely dissimilar animals, the Law of Moses condemned such (Deut. 22: 10). One cannot serve two dissimilar masters (Matt. 6: 24).",

        "title": "Bill King Blog | Reform TIRZs, Don\u2019t Repeal Property Tax Cap",
        "raw_content": "17 Nov Reform TIRZs, Don\u2019t Repeal Property Tax Cap\nPosted at 10:12h in City Of Houston Finances, TIRZ, Uptown\tby\tBill King Policy 0 Comments\nMy former colleagues at the Houston Chronicle editorial board opined this week that the City\u2019s property tax cap should be repealed and that the tax increment reinvestment zones (TIRZs) need to be reformed. [Click here to read.] They are wrong on the first count but right on the second one.\nTo begin, let\u2019s get some facts straight that were mangled in the editorial.\nFirst, the City does not have a revenue cap; it has a property tax cap. Property taxes make up about 25% of the City\u2019s total revenue. That is the only source of revenue that is limited under the City charter amendment that was approved by voters in 2004. The other 75% of revenue is not restricted. There is a cap on all revenues in the charter that was also approved by the voters in 2004, but because the property tax cap got more votes, the City only enforces the property tax cap.\nRepeal advocates insist on mischaracterizing the limitation as a \u201crevenue\u201d cap to mislead the public into believing that the City\u2019s ability to raise any form of revenue is impaired by the restriction. But since the charter amendment was enacted, City revenues have increased by a whopping $2 billion (67%), including the enactment of the drainage fee, which was the largest single tax increase in the City\u2019s history.\nSecond, the increase in taxes is not \u201cconstrained by an arbitrary algorithm.\u201d The limit is the lesser of population growth and inflation or 4.5%. Limiting Council\u2019s ability to increase property taxes to population growth and inflation is a reasonable limitation and should be a rough estimate of the need to increase taxes. If the City\u2019s population and inflation were growing by more than 4.5%, I would have to agree that the limitation is arbitrary. But because the City\u2019s population has been growing at a very slow pace and inflation has been low since 2004, the 4.5% limitation normally does not come into play.\nThird, and most importantly, the property tax cap repeal advocates always omit that the charter amendment begins with this clause: \u201cThe City Council shall not, without voter approval . . .\u201d In other words, in any year that the Mayor and Council believe that the City needs more tax revenue than the limitation allows, all they need to do is ask for the voters\u2019 approval. If they feel handcuffed by the charter amendment it can only be because they believe they cannot make a credible case to the taxpayers to pay more.\nMy former colleagues are right about the detrimental effect the TIRZs are having on the City\u2019s finances. Last year, the TIRZs collected $132 million in property taxes, nearly 14% of the City\u2019s total property taxes. That is more money than the drainage fee brought in last year.\nThey are also correct that the taxes collected by the TIRZs are excluded from the property tax cap. As a result, TIRZ tax receipts have soared. Last year the property taxes collected by all TIRZs increased 13%. The receipts for the six richest TIRZs went up by an astonishing 27%!\nOf course, the City has devised a number of clever ways to claw back more and more of this revenue over time and subvert the voters\u2019 intention as expressed in the cap. Each TIRZ pays the City an administrative fee and most make other contributions toward \u201cshared\u201d expenses. But there is no question that if the City had all of this revenue back, it would go a long way toward solving its long-term structural deficit.\nOne of the challenges in bringing any of this revenue back to the City is that the TIRZs have been on a debt binge in recent years. They currently owe around half a billion dollars. So, much of their revenue is committed to repaying that debt. Of course, voters had no say in the creation of this debt, notwithstanding that property taxes will be used to repay it.\nThere are certainly some good projects that are undertaken by the TIRZs. But increasingly they are grasping for projects on which to spend their largess; witness the idiotic $200 million bus lane project in Uptown.\nOf course, our benevolent State Legislature has its finger in all of this. All of the TIRZs were created by state statute. So, the State will have to be involved in any restructuring. Given numerous conflicts of interests between our local delegation and the TIRZs and their first cousins, the management districts, good luck with that.\nIf you would like to receive our blog post by email, send your email address to weking@weking.net and we will add you to our distribution list.",

        "raw_content": "Five Minutes with Dr. Panos Iakovidis\nPublished by: The Winter Haven Sun\n(As a thoracic vascular surgeon, and President and Board Chairman of the Bond Clinic, Dr. Panos Iakovidis was already a busy man. So what was he doing in St. Louis when the Sun Central Media Group caught up with him? He was attending the owner\u2019s meetings for the Major Arena Soccer League of course. Iakovidis probably never imagined adding \u201csoccer team owner\u201d to his resume, but about six months ago, that\u2019s exactly what he did, becoming the majority owner of the MASL Florida Tropics who play their home games at the RP Funding Center \u2013 formerly the Lakeland Center \u2013 and the Lakeland Tropics, currently in the middle of their first season in the USL Premier Development League. Lakeland\u2019s next game is a biggie, a rematch with FC Miami City, who beat the Tropics 4-0 in Miami in the team\u2019s first ever outdoor game. However, after that loss, the Tropics reeled off six straight wins to put them in serious playoff contention even as an expansion team. That game is Saturday, June 24, at historic Bryant Stadium. Kickoff is 7:35 p.m. For information on the team, and to buy tickets, go to www.lakelandtropics.com. But as you\u2019ll find out, in viewing the Tropics, Iakovidis sees more than just soccer.)\nSCMG: Were you even aware of arena soccer before the Tropics came along?\nPI: \u201cI was aware of the old times (the Major Indoor Soccer League), and I\u2019d seen videos in the 1980s. I never watched it, and I knew that arena soccer was very popular in the United States. But me watching it in person, no, I never did that.\u201d\nSCMG: So that Major Arena Soccer League home opener against the two-time defending western division champion San Diego Sockers last November, who were a huge favorite against you guys, was really something then for you, coming back from a 4-1 deficit in the fourth quarter to win 6-5 with the winning goal coming with just 31 seconds to play.\nPI: \u201cI was ecstatic. Within the first 10 or 15 minutes, I felt that the intensity of the game would make anybody, even non-soccer fans, want to watch it. Because of the constant action your attention to the game is always focused on what is happening. That is a significant change from outdoor soccer where you just watch the big picture. In arena soccer, you have to focus on where the ball is, and what is happening because you can miss a great goal or a great save or great attempt for a shot. The end of the game, it was something of a movie. My favorite picture in our office \u2013 I will always remember 50 years from now it was something that stays with you \u2013 is a picture of our players celebrating the winning goal with our fans, just jumping with happiness and excitement and joy. That\u2019s the idea, those people having the great pleasure of victory in the last second. You could not have had a happier opening.\u201d\nSCMG: What does it mean for Polk County to have now two soccer franchises to call their own?\nPI: \u201cI think it\u2019s an important step forward for our community, another step towards what our capabilities are. We have a large number of individuals at games that enjoy soccer and take pride in the community. Those two teams will be part of them. And we\u2019ll take great pride in who we are, where we live. My hope is this will become a tool that will bring all of us together.\u201d\nSCMG: You\u2019ve been a soccer player most of your life. Are you a better player or owner?\nPI: \u201cI was a recreational soccer player. I spent my time going to school, so I chose medicine as my first love. But I always enjoyed playing soccer at the level that my time would allow me. As an owner, my goal is to bring a team not just on the field but off the field, and at the same time connect with the community. I depend on many other good people to do the work and focus on our goals. I give guidance , but the success depends really on them.\u201d\nSCMG: You had thousands of fans at the Lakeland Tropics home opener on May 20, a thrilling 4-3 win over The Villages SC, who are the defending southeast division champions. What were you\u2019re emotions at kickoff?\nPI: \u201cThat was exciting for me personally because it involved all of us. Having 6,100 people or so was something that was unique. I don\u2019t think anyone thought that number of people would come and watch a first-time team, and at the same time, expect to see such a quality and exciting game. Winning it of course topped everything, especially when you were against last year\u2019s champions. It\u2019s something that will stay with me.\u201d\nSCMG: And what were they at the end of the game?\nPI: \u201cHappiness and excitement. I had fulfilled a goal of my life that I didn\u2019t even know I had. During the game, the emotions went up and down, which is part of the game, the excitement and the disappointment. That\u2019s part of the experience of being a fan of the team.\u201d\nSCMG: You\u2019re kind of in a soccer cradle, with Orlando City to the east having great success in Major League Soccer, and Tampa Bay to the west, having great success in the Division 2 United Soccer League, with hopes of joining MLS in a few years. What does that mean for the Tropics?\nPI: \u201cIt means that we have a higher chance for success. There\u2019s no question when you\u2019re alone, chances for such a success are limited. The population we have here is drawn to soccer, and they would travel an hour and half each way to watch a game. Now they have the opportunity to watch their sport in their town with their own team. That brings a local flavor to their favorite sports.\u201d\nSCMG: After decades of talking like it would happen, do you think we\u2019ve finally turned the corner on soccer in the country as a whole?\nPI: \u201cI think we took that turn some time ago, but we did not notice it, with our busy every day lives. With the new technology, with entertainment at our fingertips, not just a few hours a day but pretty much every second, it came but we did not notice it. It\u2019s definitely here. How many new teams are coming to the market? How many new leagues? Everywhere you turn there is soccer. We\u2019ve made the turn, and looking forward, over the next 10 to 20 years you\u2019ll see further growth not only of the sport but of our lifestyle and businesses getting around this sport too.\u201d\nSCMG: Community is big, you\u2019ve mentioned it a few times. What do you want a family to think once they\u2019ve attended an arena or outdoor Tropics game?\nPI: \u201cI think the most important message we have is that we are here to be together. Soccer is just a venue for us, getting to know each other, supporting each other. Soccer may be exciting, it may be entertaining, but it\u2019s just one small step for the community to come together. We have many, many difficult tasks that we have to solve, and none of us can solve them by ourselves, no matter how much power we have, how much money, all of us as a community have to come together to solve those problems. This is part of what my fortunes in life have brought me to.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Exchange traded funds are very similar to mutual funds, except that they trade on the exchange all day, and their prices are updated by the second based on the prices of their underlying assets. You can buy many different types of exchange traded funds, similar to mutual funds, but there are also leveraged exchange traded funds, which you can\u2019t find in mutual funds.\nBefore you buy an exchange traded fund, you need to do your homework. You want to make sure you know what types of stocks you want to buy and under what circumstances. There are many different types of ETFs that correlate to the kinds of stocks available \u2013 large cap, small cap, sectors, etc. Make sure you understand what you want to get into and the fundamentals of the index or sector.\nSecond, you need to do your due diligence on the ETF. This means checking the past performance, looking at the expense ratio, and just becoming familiar with the fund. Although many exchange traded funds follow the same indexes, they all have different expenses.\nWays to Buy Exchange Traded Funds\nThere are two main ways people buy exchange traded funds \u2013 either through a discount broker or a full service broker.\nYour best bet is to go through an online discount broker and make the trade yourself. These funds are very straightforward and easy to understand, so you should have confidence in buying them.\nYou simply need to deposit an initial amount of money at the broker, place a buy order online, enter the ticker symbol of the ETF you\u2019re interested in, and you\u2019re done. Since ETFs are usually longer term trades, you can simply place market orders and be fine.\nYour other option is to use a full service broker, but this actually takes more work and will cost you more money. All the steps are similar to using a discount broker, except you actually need to speak to someone to have your order placed, and they charge considerably higher fees for this service.\nTo get more information on how to buy Exchange Traded Funds, sign up for our free email newsletter.",

His father is behind bars, his foster Dad, Dev has stuck with him through tough times, and is now accepted by Joel\u2019s family. And water-loving Joel has a windsurfer all of his own. Still, some doubts linger. Dev might not want to hang around forever, he has a life outside of Joel\u2019s world.\nA tear in the sail of his windsurfer leads Joel to the sailmaker, an eccentric who lives a hermit- like existence on an island where he tends the lighthouse. Stories about the place being haunted don\u2019t scare Joel off; quite the opposite, he wants to spend the night there.\nJoel also finds an abandoned boat, a tinny, drifting near shore. But who owned it? And where is that person now? These thoughts are far from Joel\u2019s mind as he and his best friend Mei spend the night on the island. But a sudden storm cuts them off from the mainland, and the children are plunged straight into danger. Joel needs to keep a cool head and use his resourcefulness to survive.\nFirst published in 2002, this has been re-released as a companion to the newly published third book in the series, Killer Ute. Another fast paced story by Rosanne Hawke for children aged 9 and over. Although Sailmaker is the second in a series, it is able to stand alone.",

        "raw_content": "Carol Graham works across genres and her ever-evolving images appeal to a wide range of art lovers. Her work is held in private collections, public institutions, businesses and galleries across the UK, Ireland, USA, South Africa and Australia.\nCarol trusts and courageously follows her inner voice. Her subject matter varies, including landscapes, seascapes, still life, horses, and spiritual, metaphorical and abstract images. She often produces images in groups or in a series.\nThroughout her subject matter, from the most vibrant to the darkest, there is a consistent quality of light; Carol especially enjoys dawn and dusk.\nCarol Graham lives near Belfast and has a studio in Lisburn. The Irish artist is available for commissions (portraits) including horses, landscapes, still life etc. One-to-one/group teaching sessions and studio visits. Carol has a substantial body of work which can be viewed at her studio by appointment.\nCarol Graham was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland and attended Belfast College of Art. On leaving she set up a studio in an old barn in a rural area (County Down) and began to exhibit her work in a variety of galleries.\nThe Arts Council of Northern Ireland commissioned and purchased her work, as did the Ulster Museum in Belfast. Regular commissions (including multiple portraits) followed and she continued to explore and extend her work.\nIn the early 1990s Carol experienced a period of depression, which she sought to explore and understand through her work. Her images changed, encompassing new subject matter of Irish mountain landscapes, which developed into cathartic and powerful abstract images: metaphorical explorations of emotional and spiritual experiences.\nCarol\u2019s acclaimed exhibition Into the Darkness, in Dublin and Belfast, was the culmination of this difficult and ultimately redemptive process. Carol\u2019s learning from this period informs all her subsequent work; she has a keen interest in art therapy.\nCarol served as President of the Royal Ulster Academy (RUA) from 2003-2006, overseeing the transition from the Academy being hosted in the Ulster Museum, to the Ormeau Baths Gallery (due to the former\u2019s temporary closure). An extremely successful period in the RUA's history.",

This season, Cape Fear Regional Theatre is thrilled to share a mix of truly great stories that are sure to entertain, stimulate imagination, spark conversation, and bring the community together with the power of live theatre. Effie White and her best friends will grapple with the cost of success in the dazzling production of Dreamgirls and audience members will be on the edge of their seats during the suspense thriller Wait Until Dark. In February, Dr. Seuss\u2019s best-loved characters will come to life in a fantastical, flying, musical extravaganza in Seussical. Audiences will then join in the edgy, thought-provoking, and most produced play in American theatre last year, Disgraced. Wrapping up the season will be a fresh, engaging, and imaginative version of Sense and Sensibility and a Gospel-filled great time, Crowns, which will stir your soul and inspire you to connect to your roots. Ticket sales account for less than 40% of CFRT\u2019s funding. Grants such as this grant from the Arts Council are essential to ensuring great stories are told here.\n\u201cOperating Support grants are designed to strengthen our community through the arts,\u201d says Deborah Martin Mintz, executive director of the Arts Council. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to support a strong arts organization such as Cape Fear Regional Theatre, which is vital to maintaining a vibrant community, essential for economic development and integral in the development of a creative workforce.\u201d\nThe Arts Council\u2019s Community Organization Resource (CORE) Grants may be awarded to local arts agencies in Cumberland County whose programs are vital to the cultural life of the community and whose organizations have reached a size and maturity that assure their long-term viability. The purpose of these grants is to strengthen and stabilize major arts institutions and help them to deliver high quality arts services to the citizens of Cumberland County.\nCFRT is committed to presenting an annual series of plays, performances and special events that, in addition to entertaining, will enlighten, inspire, and educate performers and audiences. CFRT strives to tell the stories that resonate with all members of this dynamic diverse community, and be a place for the entire community to come together to laugh harder, think deeper, share experiences, and grow as a community.\nAbout the Arts Council of Fayetteville/Cumberland County\nThe Arts Council of Fayetteville/Cumberland County serves the 300,000 residents of Fayetteville and Cumberland County. For more than 30 years, the Arts Council has ensured growth in our children\u2019s education, our community\u2019s cultural identity and our economic progress.

        "raw_content": "How To Date A Horse Girl: A Primer For Men (Views: 230969)\nSo, you\u2019ve started to date a horse-crazy gal? First of all, congratulations. You have excellent taste. The Horse Girl is a unique and wonderful breed, and we want your relationship to be successful.\nYou might believe that dating a girl who is crazy about horses isn\u2019t any different than dating somebody who crochets or collects folk art. But you\u2019d be wrong. There are things you need to know about us, and it\u2019s best that you know them sooner than later.\nIt is easy to identify a Horse Girl when you meet one. Just start a conversation with us. About anything. If we don\u2019t find a way to mention our horse within the first five minutes, then we don\u2019t have one.\nOnce we do mention them, be prepared to for us to pull out our phone and show you three dozen photos of said horse in various poses. And those are just the pictures we took today. (Years from now, when the garage is too full of extra saddles and feed for you to park your car, you can\u2019t say we didn\u2019t warn you. We practice full disclosure right from the beginning.)\nThe usual rules of how to impress a girl don\u2019t apply. We won\u2019t find your high-rise condo appealing. But you will pique our interest if you tell us that you have a house with some property in any area that is zoned for agriculture (it doesn\u2019t matter if you know your zoning; we have this sort of stuff memorized). The potential for housing additional horses is a powerful aphrodisiac.\nSaying you own a hot sports car won\u2019t excite us. But you\u2019d have to really screw up to not get a second date if we find out you have a truck. Before we even buckle our seatbelt we\u2019re giddily calculating how many fewer trips we\u2019ll need to make to the feed store. And if your truck has a hitch\u2014well, land, truck, and hitch is pretty much the Horse Girl equivalent of hitting the trifecta.\nDon\u2019t worry if you think strawberry roan is a dessert and liver chestnuts are something you stuff poultry with. It\u2019s actually better if you\u2019re NOT a horse person yourself. We\u2019d just as soon not have to deal with the inevitable disagreements\u2014you claiming the horses are fine when the weather clearly warrants blanketing, for example. All we need is for you to be trainable in the basics.\nIf we\u2019re meeting you somewhere for a date, chances are we are coming from the barn. Yes, we are going out to eat looking and smelling like this. If it\u2019s really a problem for you, we\u2019ll dab a bit of Belvoir behind our ears and run a tail comb through our hair. Keep a bottle of Febreze in the truck if you must, but we are not going to wear that pine tree-shaped \u201cnecklace\u201d that you took off your rearview mirror.\nHorse Girls prefer cozy, casual dates to formal social outings. We\u2019re not much for small talk and aren\u2019t good at parties. We\u2019ll probably just hang out at the buffet table waiting for opportunities to sneak carrot sticks into our purse\u2014unless we meet another horse person, in which case you\u2019ll have to go entertain yourself until it\u2019s time to leave.\nSpeaking of leaving, if there is an emergency at the barn any time of day or night, we are going. It doesn\u2019t matter if we\u2019re in the middle of donating a kidney to you. And we\u2019re taking your truck.\nCommunication skills are important in any relationship, and Horse Girls have their own language. Because of this we will take you to the barn now and then to teach you some basic terminology. We can\u2019t fully enjoy telling you stories about what cute thing our horse did today if you must continually interrupt us to ask what a word means.\nShould our relationship progress to the point where you want to give us a ring\u2014don\u2019t. When you put it on our finger and tears well up in our eyes, it is not out of love. It is because we are agonizing over what a great saddle we could have bought for that much money.\nIf you need to make a grand romantic gesture, get us a two-horse slant-load. If you want to buy us something special to wear, wrap up a shadbelly. And surprising us with a weekend getaway is only advised if we can bring our horse with us.\nWhen it comes to buying us gifts in general, your job couldn\u2019t be easier.* If it comes from a tack store or a feed store, you\u2019re golden.\nBut if you really don\u2019t know what you\u2019re looking at, it\u2019s safer to opt for a gift certificate. There is no kind way to tell you why we\u2019re returning the orange plaid blanket you got for our hunter. Your argument that \u201cit\u2019s hunter orange,\u201d will not hold up here.\n*Exception to gift rule: Do not ever buy us anything with a title like \u201cThe Horse Owner\u2019s Vet Book.\u201d In it, we will find hundreds of conditions we never knew our horses were susceptible to. Our horse-mom paranoia will reach manic proportions. You will be sorry. The vet will be sorry. Our horse (who we will probably end up wrapping in bubble wrap) will be sorry. If you must get us a book about horses, we recommend Black Beauty.\nYou never have to worry about a Horse Girl turning into a different person once you marry her. After the wedding, very little is going to change\u2014for us. As for you\u2014you will get used to horse hair in the dryer and blankets stretched out on your workbench in the garage to dry. You\u2019ll learn how to back out of the driveway blind when hay bales are blocking the back window of the truck. The good news is, you\u2019ll never, ever have to ask us \u2018where have you been all day?\u2019 You\u2019ll always know where we are.\nThere will be hard realities to face. We will do things for horses that we would not dream of doing for a human being. No matter how much we love you, we\u2019re not going to hold up your leg while you bleed on us until the doctor arrives. If you wake at night with a stomachache, you can get up and walk your own self around. We do not want to be alerted when you poop. It\u2019s in your best interest to suffer silently. If you make too much noise we\u2019re going to get out the tube and the mineral oil.\nThere are benefits to living with a Horse Girl, though. We\u2019re hard workers who are not afraid to get our hands dirty. We\u2019re not squeamish. You can count on us to do whatever it takes in a pinch. And give us duct tape and Bondo and we can fix about anything.\nJust be careful not to play the \u2018\u2019Ooooh, I\u2019m so sick,\u201d card when you want our sympathy. Do you really want us to get the thermometer?\nAfter years of trying to fit in with corporate America, Jody Lynne Werner decided to pursue her true passion as a career rather than a hobby.

        "raw_content": "Energy Engineering Conscience\nI have taken on the office of CIBSE Presidency for 2013-14 with eyes wide open to the opportunities, challenges and changes ahead for our institution.\nI accepted the Jewel of Office with pride on behalf of our industry, which I have tirelessly worked for now for over 35 years. During my year in office I will be continuing the President\u2019s blog and I\u2019d like to thank immediate Past President David Fisk for giving us such an entertaining year of posts.\nSince taking over the helm I\u2019ve already had the pleasure of numerous events, awards, presentations and meetings. Not being a practised blogger I had no doubt on how to approach the blog; ask my daughters what to do. Suitably embarrassed I concluded that I want to open up debate on some of the key issues that affect us and our industry, and their importance to human well being. So, over the coming months I\u2019ll be introducing these themes and invite you to give your take on the month\u2019s topic. Each week a guest blogger will have the opportunity to respond to my introduction, giving their unique perspective, insight and expertise. With collaboration in mind, I\u2019d like to invite input from engineers of all disciplines, facilities and operations managers, architects, academics, social commentators and the like. Getting involved is simple, so please do contact us if you\u2019d like to be part of the blog. I\u2019d encourage a diverse range of opinions and look forward to reading your posts.\nMake sure you keep an eye on the blog so you don\u2019t miss any posts. We\u2019ll be sure to share the posts on social media, in particular on the CIBSE LinkedIn pages, so that way the debate can continue on a daily basis. Each time I upload a blog I\u2019ll provide an update of social media activity from the preceding month so you can see just how much of a debate you\u2019ve created!\nAnd so to my first topic \u2013 energy engineering conscience.\nClimate change is occurring even quicker than predicted. Sir Nicholas Stern, this year, has declared that loud and clear. So we must respond accordingly.\nHuge energy efficiency improvements and adaptation of our cities offer major opportunities to change. Long-standing debates on areas such as wind power must be resolved soon. Europe, for example, has shown it could develop renewable resources on an integrated governmental scale. Societies could develop their populations to act on climate change and ecosystems through education, social interaction and greater sharing of knowledge. Governments could increase research and development resources to get a grip of the 30% of energy wasted alone in existing buildings. Organisations can pursue a new continuously improving process for their facilities and operations. It\u2019s a matter of making better choices based on a realistic view of the challenges and opportunities through a new energy engineering conscience.\nCIBSE will stride forward to provide a voice and a conscience for excellence in Building Services Engineering, a place for knowledge and a place for voices to be heard.\nFor debate: What are the opportunities presented by the challenge of climate change and can we, through behavioural change, grasp them?",

        "raw_content": "Some needs are self-actualization needs. When we feel self-actualized we feel like our lives are fulfilling, like we are living our dreams. We have a cohesive sense of self and we believe we are valuable, lovable human beings. We all have the need to be and strive towards being self-actualized. Let\u2019s take a closer look at this need and how this need relates to credit.\na. What is self-actualization?\nAbraham Maslow developed what many of us know as the Hierarchy of Needs model. When he developed this model, he studied self-actualization needs. He concluded that people who are often motivated to satisfy a self-actualization need are restless, almost as if they were asking themselves\u2014\u201cIs this all there is?\u201d It\u2019s as if they realized there was more to life than endlessly pursuing approval and feeding their egos.\nTheir reaction to this discontent drives them to develop their talents, to become what they believe they were on earth to become, and to ditch the pursuit of pleasure as defined by some in our society as getting more \u201cstuff.\u201d They are motivated by internal, inside needs, or what\u2019s called intrinsic rewards. We experience an intrinsic reward when we feel a sense of accomplishment from within us versus needing something external to motivate us, like the praise or threats of others. World leaders, who some would say are motivated by intrinsic rewards such as Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Mother Theresa, and Buddha could be examples.\nSo how is all of this related to credit? Well, it turns out that what motivates you may be related to your credit score. Let\u2019s take a look at the list of characteristics of the self-actualizer. Then we\u2019ll talk about what this means for your credit.\nb. Characteristics of self-actualizers:\nRealistic: Logical, seek the truth, unafraid of the unknown.\nSelf-accepting: High in self-worth, lack excessive guilt or shame, and enjoy themselves for who they are.\nSpontaneous, simple and natural: Typically, enjoy a creative inner life, value their independence, and are motivated by what\u2019s important to them.\nFocus on problem solving: Focus on problems in order to focus on what\u2019s important. Typically serene, not a worrier, and devoted to duty.\nDetachment, need of privacy: Self-starter who is not lonely when alone. Rise above the daily stressors.\nAutonomy, independent of culture: Appreciate people for who they are and not greatly influenced by cultural \u201cmusts.\u201d\nPersonal relationships: Feel a deep and sympathetic affection for others. Typically have profoundly intimate relationships with a few people but a love and appreciation for many.\nDemocratic values and attitudes: Are humble and friendly with others regardless of class, education, political beliefs, race, or color.\nPhilosophical, without a hostile sense of humor: Laugh at themselves but never make jokes that hurt others.\nResistance to enculturation: Are somewhat detached from cultural values and work for long-range cultural improvement and justice.",

        "raw_content": "By: Krystle\tDate: August 24, 2015\nHealth and Safety Reform Bill \u2013 Duty of Care\nThe Bill will replace the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 and it is part of \u201cWorking Safer: a blueprint for health and safety at work\u201d. It will introduce major changes including placing the primary duty of care towards workers on persons conducting a business or undertaking (\u201cPCBU\u201d), imposing a positive duty of due diligence on directors and certain others in senior management, and a penalty regime with significantly increased penalties. Working Safer\u2019s aim is to reduce workplace injury and the death toll by 25 per cent by 2020.\nPCBU duties may overlap with the duties of other PCBUs in shared workplaces or where workers work for more than one PCBU. The Bill requires PCBUs to consult, co-operate and co-ordinate with each other. The changes clarify how PCBUs must work together to discharge their overlapping duties to the extent that they have the ability to influence and control the matter. A duty holder\u2019s obligations to manage risk are limited to doing what is in their ability to control and manage, along with what is reasonably practicable for them to do to manage the risk. Courts are required to consider death or harm (both actual and potential) caused by a breach of duty. An officer of a PCBU has a duty to exercise due diligence to ensure that the PCBU complies with its duties, placing a positive duty on people at the governance level of an organisation to actively engage in health and safety matters.\nTaxation (Land Information and Offshore Persons Information) Bill \u2013 Property Tax Rules\nThe Bill aims to assist Inland Revenue to enforce property tax rules by amending the Land Transfer Act 1952 and the Tax Administration Act 1994. If the Bill is passed into law it will require buyers and sellers of residential property to provide their IRD number and other details when transferring property. People with tax residency in another jurisdiction will also be required to provide the equivalent of their IRD number in that country. People situated offshore are required to provide evidence of a New Zealand bank account in order to obtain an IRD number. It is likely that Trusts will need a Trust IRD number for property transfers rather than individual trustee\u2019s IRD numbers.\nThe Bill will likely pass into law by 30 September 2015 and Landonline changes will be implemented from 1 October 2015 at which time the necessary tax information will need to be supplied in order to submit a new dealing through Landonline. The new bright-line test removes any doubt about a seller\u2019s intention and makes it clear that all property buyers, including overseas buyers, who buy and sell a residential property within two years will be taxed on their gains. The only exemptions are a person\u2019s main home (including a home held in trust), property that is transferred under a relationship property settlement, and inherited property. The bright-line test together with the Bill will help Inland Revenue to identify investors in residential property, and ensure that they pay their fair share of tax, whether they reside in New Zealand or offshore.\nAmendments to the Employment Relations Act 2000\nThe Employment Relations Amendment Act 2014 came into effect in March 2015. The changes concern flexible working arrangements, rest and meal break rules, continuity of employment for specified employees (Part 6A), good faith, collective bargaining framework including strikes and lockouts and the Employment Relations Authority. The revised Code of Good Faith in Collective Bargaining aligns with the new law and gives guidance to employers and unions on their duty to act in good faith when bargaining for a collective agreement or variation to a collective agreement under the Employment Relations Act 2000.\nThe key changes include extending the statutory right that caregivers currently have to request flexible working arrangements to all employees. There is no limit on the number of requests that can be made in a year and an employer must respond to a request within 1 month in writing including an explanation for a refusal. Changes to rest and meal break provisions include when employers can make reasonable restrictions on rest and meal breaks, when breaks can be taken and how long breaks should be. The right to rest and meal breaks cannot be contracted out of. An employer is required to give relevant information to an employee where it is proposing to make a decision that may have an adverse effect on the continuation of that employee\u2019s employment.\nThere are consequential changes to the Employment Relations Authority which introduces requirements for when and how the Authority must give determinations. At the conclusion of an investigation meeting, the Authority must give an oral determination and a written record of it within 1 month. Alternatively, the Authority must give an oral indication of its preliminary findings to the parties and deliver a written determination within 3 months of the investigation meeting or when extra evidence is provided. The Authority can also decide matters without holding an investigation meeting where a written determination must be given within 3 months of receiving evidence from the parties.",

        "raw_content": "Milford field hockey touts IR, 6-0\nA young Indian River High School varsity field hockey team is still trying to find their identity under first-year head coach Cheryl Carey. The winless Lady Indians came out strong on Tuesday afternoon against Milford but slowly began to fall apart before they were able to establish an offense. Milford improved to 3-1-1 this week and walked away with a 6-0 win over Indian River, who, as of Wednesday, Sept. 29, were 0-4-2.\nMilford\u2019s Briana Walls and Indian River\u2019s Taylor Cox run down a ball in Tuesday\u2019s game. The Buccaneers defeated the Lady Indians 6-0.\n\u201cWe came out exactly how we needed to,\u201d noted Carey. \u201cOur girls were totally in the game... for the first 15 minutes. Then we struggled defensively, and Milford scored on us. Our defense recognized that, but it happened again. If we were able to knock one into the cage first, that probably would have given us the momentum we were looking for.\u201d\nMilford\u2019s Peyton Shockley scored a hat trick, with two first-half goals and a late, second-half goal. Savannah Becker added two more, including one in the final minute of the game to push the Buccaneers ahead, 6-0.\nAlthough her offense was unable to finish, Carey also noted that the defense needs to be more aware of their positioning and counter the attack.\n\u201cOur defense was flat-footed,\u201d she said. \u201cWe didn\u2019t move as well in the circle as we should have. Field hockey is all about moving your feet. We can\u2019t stand around when the other team\u2019s on the attack.\u201d\nThe Lady Indians were able to hold Seaford to a 0-0 tie late last week, their second one of the season, but had yet to pick up a win this year. In fact, their offense hasn\u2019t scored since their season opener, on Sept. 13, when they tied Red Lion Christian Academy, 2-2.\n\u201cWe need to go back and focus on the fundamentals,\u201d said Carey. \u201cWe can\u2019t afford to make these small mental mistakes. We\u2019ve improved as a team since the start of the season, but we can\u2019t always look at the score.\u201d\nAfter each game, she\u2019s asked the girls to reflect on what they did right in the game, as well as areas that may need some extra attention.\n\u201cAfter they recognize what they need to do differently,\u201d she added, \u201cwe can go from there. We are starting the game strong, but we\u2019ve got to get better at not committing offensive fouls.\u201d\nThe Lady Indians will keep busy with week with Delmar on Saturday, Oct. 2, Cape Henlopen on Tuesday, Oct. 5, and Laurel on Thursday, Oct. 7.\n\u201cWe definitely could have played with Milford if we didn\u2019t let the score get to us,\u201d Carey said. \u201cThis week, we\u2019re going back to the drawing boards and buckling down at practices. We just need to regroup as a team and keep our heads up.\u201d\nTuesday\u2019s win was a welcome one for Milford, who opened with a tie against Polytech and succumbed to Laurel, two conference rivals.\n\u201cIt was very important that we get back on track,\u201d said Milford head coach Amanda Jacona. \u201cWe played with heart when we didn\u2019t have the ball against Laurel. But we know we\u2019ve always got to be ready for the next game.\u201d\nThis past Thursday, Sept. 30, marked the first home game of the Buccaneers\u2019 season.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been on the road for the first three weeks of the fall,\u201d Jacona added. \u201cIt will be nice to be back on our own field.\u201d",

While we hasten to undertake the austere Lenten journey, we want to invoke with particular confidence the protection and help of the Virgin Mary. May she, the first believer in Christ, be the one who accompanies us in these 40 days of intense prayer and sincere penance, to be able to celebrate, purified and completely renewed in mind and spirit, the great mystery of her Son\u2019s Easter. (http://www.zenit.org/article-28387?l=english)\nAccording to The Catholic Encylopedia itself, the 40 day Lenten season was really not a practice of the original Christians:\nSome of the Fathers as early as the fifth century supported the view that this forty days\u2019 fast was of Apostolic institution\u2026But the best modern scholars are almost unanimous in rejecting this view\u2026We may then fairly conclude that Irenaeus about the year 190 knew nothing of any Easter fast of forty days\u2026And there is the same silence observable in all the pre-Nicene Fathers, though many had occasion to mention such an Apostolic institution if it had existed. We may note for example that there is no mention of Lent in St. Dionysius of Alexandria (ed. Feltoe, 94 sqq.) or in the \u201cDidascalia\u201d, which Funk attributes to about the year 250 (Lent. The Catholic Encyclopedia).\nYet, in the late second century, Polycrates, Bishop of Ephesus, felt it needful to remind Bishop Victor of Rome, that Easter Sunday was not a practice of the original apostles, but Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread were:\nWe observe the exact day; neither adding, nor taking away\u2026Philip, one of the twelve apostles, who fell asleep in Hierapolis; and his two aged virgin daughters, and another daughter, who lived in the Holy Spirit and now rests at Ephesus; and, moreover, John, who was both a witness and a teacher, who reclined upon the bosom of the Lord, and, being a priest, wore the sacerdotal plate. He fell asleep at Ephesus. And Polycarp in Smyrna, who was a bishop and martyr; and Thraseas, bishop and martyr from Eumenia, who fell asleep in Smyrna. Why need I mention the bishop and martyr Sagaris who fell asleep in Laodicea, or the blessed Papirius, or Melito, the Eunuch who lived altogether in the Holy Spirit, and who lies in Sardis, awaiting the episcopate from heaven, when he shall rise from the dead? All these observed the fourteenth day of the passover according to the Gospel, deviating in no respect, but following the rule of faith. And I also, Polycrates, the least of you all, do according to the tradition of my relatives, some of whom I have closely followed. For seven of my relatives were bishops; and I am the eighth. And my relatives always observed the day when the people put away the leaven. I, therefore, brethren, who have lived sixty-five years in the Lord, and have met with the brethren throughout the world, and have gone through every Holy Scripture, am not affrighted by terrifying words. For those greater than I have said \u2018 We ought to obey God rather than man\u2019 (Eusebius. Church History, Book V, Chapter 24. Translated by Arthur Cushman McGiffert. Excerpted from Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Series Two, Volume 1. Edited by Philip Schaff and Henry Wace. American Edition, 1890. Online Edition Copyright \u00a9 2004 by K. Knight).\nNotice that Polycrates said that he and the other early church leaders (like the Apostles Philip and John, and their successors like Polycarp, Thraseas, Sagaris, Papirius, Melito) would not deviate from the Bible, and that they knew the Bible taught them to keep the Passover on the correct date, and not always on a Sunday. Also notice that they always observed the day when the people put away the leaven. Polycrates also reminded the Roman bishop that true followers of Christ \u201cobey God rather than men\u201d.\nThe Apostle Paul also invoked keeping the Days of Unleavened Bread:\n7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. (1 Corinthians 5:7-8)\nThus, while the Apostle Paul specifically endorsed the observance of Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread, he did not do so for something called Lent. However, because the Days of Unleavened Bread involve a seven-day \u201cfast\u201d from leaven, it may be that some associated with Rome and Egypt felt that an abstinence period would be appropriate, but the amount of time varied.\nSome others have suspected that pre-Christian culture was the reason that a 40 day Lenten period was adopted by the Church of Rome:\nThe forty days\u2019 abstinence of Lent was directly borrowed from the worshippers of the Babylonian goddess\u2026Such a Lent of forty days was observed in Egypt, as may be seen on consulting Wilkinson\u2019s Egyptians\u2026Among the Pagans this Lent seems to have been an indispensable preliminary to the great annual festival in commemoration of the death and resurrection of Tammuz, which was celebrated by alternate weeping and rejoicing, and which, in many countries, was considerably later than the Christian festival, being observed in Palestine and Assyria in June, therefore called the \u201cmonth of Tammuz\u201d; in Egypt, about the middle of May, and in Britain, some time in April. To conciliate the Pagans to nominal Christianity, Rome, pursuing its usual policy, took measures to get the Christian and Pagan festivals amalgamated, and, by a complicated but skilful adjustment of the calendar\u2026Originally, even in Rome, Lent, with the preceding revelries of the Carnival, was entirely unknown; and even when fasting before the Christian Pasch was held to be necessary, it was by slow steps that, in this respect, it came to conform with the ritual of Paganism. What may have been the period of fasting in the Roman Church before sitting of the Nicene Council does not very clearly appear, but for a considerable period after that Council, we have distinct evidence that it did not exceed three weeks (Hislop A. Two Babylons. pp. 104-106).\nSo, while their was a biblical time of some type of abstinence, a 40 day period known as Lent was not the practice of early Christians.\nSome modern groups, like the Living Church of God (who traces its history through leaders including Polycarp and Polycrates), still observe Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread. But groups with closer historical ties to the Church of Rome tend to observe Lent and Easter Sunday.\nMysterious origins of Mardis Gras and Ash Wednesday Where do researchers believe these practices came from?

Inscriptions include \"UNITED STATES OF AMERICA\" and \"$1.\"\nThe mint mark, year, and the inscription, \"E PLURIBUS UNUM,\" are incused in the edges of the coins.\nJames Garfield: 20th President, 20th in Presidential $1 Coin Series\nGarfield, the 20th U.S. President, was born in a log cabin in 1831 in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. After graduating from Williams College in Massachusetts, Garfield started an academic career at the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute (later Hiram College) in Ohio as a classics professor and soon became its president.\nHe later changed careers when he was elected to the Ohio state senate in 1859. By 1862, supporters elected him to Congress where he served for the next 18 years.\nFinally, during 1880 Garfield won the Presidential election and was inaugurated in March of 1881. On July 2, however, a disgruntled attorney, who sought a consular post and did not get it, shot the President as he waited at the railroad station in Washington D.C. Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, tended to Garfield and tried to find and remove the bullet, but he was unable. On September 19, 1881, the President died from an infection and internal hemorrhage.\nPast US Mint Presidential Dollar Product Releases\nThe first four Presidential Dollars to start the series in 2007 were for George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.

        "title": "Snapshots - #29: House of Cards Trilogy, Baby Driver, and Churchill",
        "raw_content": "House of Cards (1990), (\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666): Francis Urquhart (Ian Richardson) is the Chief Whip of Britain\u2019s Conservative Party. He is a disciplinarian; he keeps the troops in check. Mr. Urquhart is also apparently a man without further political ambitions. But what better test for a politician's ambition than a general election in which a charismatic man, \"with no background and no bottom\" has been elected?\nHenry Collingridge (David Lyon), a relatively young man whose only political desire is to be well liked, is elected for the Conservative Party as the Prime Minister, with less majority than predicted by the polls. He is the pebble in Urquhart's shoe, the first of many, for the Chief Whip will use political mischief, and every dirty secret in his files to clear his path to higher office, including manipulating Mattie Storin (Susannah Harker), a young journalist with dreams of becoming a heavyweight political analyst.\nI had watched at least the first 15 minutes of the original House of Cards, a BBC and WGBH Boston adaptation of Michael Dobbs' trilogy on power, at least five times over the past few months with no real desire to commit to this series. I have to say also that I thought I wouldn't understand the politics, but surprisingly enough, politics and politicians are alike no matter what country you inhabit.\nDirty tricks and political mischief are as old as time; I have had the opportunity to get a glimpse of that by reading Suetonius' The Twelve Caesars. Some Caesars like Tiberius, Caligula, and Nero resorted to poison to checkmate their foes. Modern politicians, however, employ less conspicuous means, such as coercion, suicide by two bullets, or manipulating public opinion by using the media to make or un-make a candidate. In the end, it is ultimately the people who must question who benefits the most from a political disaster.\nI had a great time watching House of Cards. Francis Urquhart frequently addressed the audience directly with the intention of making it complicit of his malice. I found Francis Urquhart so entertaining in his Machiavellian ways...He always got rid of an opponent with a devilish smirk on his face, or raised one eyebrow to punctuate his disapproval. Ian Richardson was brilliant as Urquhart. He was the protagonist, but left no doubt that it was his time to shine and did so marvelously. Impressive also was Susannah Harker (Jane Bennett of 1995's Pride and Prejudice fame), who ably kept up with Richardson and gave him a run for his money as Mattie Storin, a young woman infatuated with power. The rest of the supporting cast was outstanding as well.\nThere are a few things in House of Cards that look dated, such as the talk of Collingridge about \"European countries recently freed from the grip of Communism\", the incessant use of landline cord telephones, and the computers that look as old as dirt. Despite these elements, the series could have been filmed today without losing its luster or its appeal.\nTo Play the King (1993), (\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666): Francis Urquhart (a.k.a. FU) (Ian Richardson) has been PM for some time. A new monarch (a.k.a. HM) (Michael Kitchen) has acceded to the throne. Both must inevitably meet to discuss politics and matters of state, but FU is in for a big surprise, because His Majesty wants to spearhead social change and empower the marginalized sectors of society.\nFU has made economic progress; supposedly the country is running like a well-oiled machine, but the disenfranchised are suffering under his austere policies. Who does the king think he is airing his political views, against the current government nonetheless, in public? When FU, with the help of his fiercely intelligent personal assistant, censor one of the king's speeches, the text is filtered to the press by one of HM's press secretaries. The fight is on and it's gloves off. Better yet, we know that FU fights dirty and doesn't like losing...\nIn To Play the King there is a lot of British politics; luckily though, the ruling party is conservative, and I more or less know what comes with that. It was interesting to see the role of a monarch, who is a figurehead, being played out as an idealist, in contravention with the politics of the party in power, because a monarch may have political opinions but cannot afford, for the sake of constitutional unity, to air them in public. The power struggle was nicely explored, as well as the differing views of both leaders.\nThis time around, FU is being haunted by what he did to Mattie Storin. He shows something resembling a conscience. Once again, he uses a power-struck young woman to achieve his goals and have a bit of personal fun on the side. Again, it doesn't end well.\nThe Final Cut (1995), (\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666): Francis Urquhart (Ian Richardson) has been Britain's PM for ten years. He may beat Margaret Thatcher's record as longest serving PM, but new threats to his power arise from within his cabinet. Tom Makepeace (Paul Freeman) is the Foreign Affairs Secretary, a man who is considered emotionally a child by those who know him well, but who has a veneer of respectability that may be just what the country needs.\nWhen FU thinks he is losing ground, he invents an incident between Cypriots and Greeks in which he has to intervene with the right balance of leadership and strength. That could work out for him as the Falklands War did for Thatcher. Meanwhile, a Greek-Cypriot family is looking for two of their relatives who were killed during the Cyprus-British war in the 1950s, and they suspect FU doesn't want to release the documents that may clarify what happened because he was the young British officer who caused their deaths.\nIn The Final Cut, we meet a FU who is haunted by Mattie and what he did to those two men in Cyprus a lifetime ago. He zones out even during Parliament sessions. He could retire while still popular and avoid scandal now that he has acquired a handsome nest egg, but it is not in him to give up the fight. With a younger man, whom Urquhart doesn\u2019t consider a worthy rival, aspiring to higher office, he will fight dirty and may even use his personal secretary, Claire Carlsen (Isla Blair), as his weapon of choice because she used to be the man\u2019s mistress.\nI was ready for this trilogy to end on a certain note, but I have to say the ending really took me by surprise; I wasn\u2019t expecting it at all, but in retrospect, it seems fitting. It could not have happened any other way.\nBaby Driver (\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666): Baby (Ansel Elgort) is a young and gifted getaway driver. He can outmaneuver his chasers while listening to his playlists with his headphones on, which is why, among the people who work for Doc (Kevin Spacey), he is the only constant every time a \"job\" comes up. Baby doesn't know that erasing his debt with Doc doesn't mean that he is free of his boss, and he is going to find out really soon how high the stakes may get in his latest assignment.\nBaby Driver has a relentless pace, with high speed car chases choreographed to the beat of cool music, dynamic camera work, heists that are rough around the edges (or just plain rough), and good working chemistry by the whole ensemble cast...Overall, this film is great escapism, and a solid entry in the heist genre.\nChurchill (\u2666\u2666\u2666): Explores the days prior to the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944 (D-Day) in the life of Winston Churchill, the worries over how best to serve his country, and the fear of massive casualties brought on by an offensive that seemed much too familiar to one almost 30 years prior during the great war.\nDespite my average rating, Churchill is a must-see artistic movie, one of the few thus far this year. The ensemble cast, led by Brian Cox as Winston Churchill, Miranda Richardson as Clementine (Churchill's wife), the dashing James Purefoy as King George VI, and John Slattery as General Eisenhower, all give superb performances.\nI was quite taken with the overlaid ghost images of Churchill walking on the beach, and worrying over massive casualties, while pronouncing his speech to reassure his British subjects that whatever casualties they incurred on D-Day would not be in vain when Europe got rid of the cancer that were Nazism and Hitler.\nthecuecard October 24, 2017 at 9:03 AM\nIan Richardson looks like the perfect bad guy/politician in the original House of Cards; the trilogy looks good. I'd like to see the Churchill movie or perhaps I have? I will have to check; Brian Cox looks familiar as Churchill. I guess the new Churchill movie is coming out at Thanksgiving called Darkest Hour. hmm.\nThis Churchill movie is from this year as well. I will be watching the Darkest Hour; that one is with Gary Oldman in the leading role.\nDorothy Borders October 24, 2017 at 10:38 AM\nEvery so often, either my husband or I will suggest watching the original House of Cards but so far we haven't succumbed to it. I think we are so burnt out with the American version (and with politics in general) that we haven't been able to face it, but we'll get to it some day. Churchill looks interesting. I'd watch just about anything with James Purefoy and John Slattery.\nThe House of Cards trilogy is, at times, laugh out loud funny, and it's only four episodes each year (12 total). I think you would love it. John Slattery and James Purefoy look dashing in military uniforms, but I have a soft spot for Purefoy since his Mark Antony days, so I may be biased. :-)\nYou are so right about dirty tricks and political mischief. I used to be outraged but the more I read and learn the more I seem to accept it as part of life. I am not sure I should. I just finished the second volume of the Lyndon B Johnson biography by Robert Caro so have been immersed in that sort of behavior. Interesting that you could follow a British version of politics because it was, well, politics and as you say conservative. Thanks again for the movie reviews. You always help keep my queue filled up.\nI think political mischief is a necessary part of politics. If I don't keep your movie queue filled up, I'm not doing my job well. :-)\nPerhaps not the best rating ever but I do fancy Churchill.\nIt may be more fiction than fact, but Brian Cox gives one heck of a performance.\nKate Scott October 30, 2017 at 7:08 PM\nBaby Driver looks interesting, though after this week, I'm not sure I'll ever be able to watch another movie w/ Kevin Spacey in it again.\nYes, I know what you mean.",

        "raw_content": "Author Topic: Brought me to tears (Read 1387 times)\nAgain, you write so well - that the images you convey with words are extremely motivating. I'm talking about the time the body of a soldier was flown in the middle of the night, received with an honor guard. It's been a while since I read it - it's sad - so I don't really want to re-read it - but it left me with such a gut-wrenching reaction. I can still feel it - even a couple of years later - such a moving story of honor encompassing the death of the soldier.\nI just wanted you to know that your words really had a tremendous impact on me and my mother when I shared it with her, too.\nRe: Brought me to tears\nWatching that particular homecoming was incredibly difficult for one of the strangest reasons: There aren't any Marine units within about 3 hours of Burlington. I don't know how they arrange something like that, but my guess is that the honor guard might have come from Massachusetts in order to be there. The fact that it was so incredibly cold that night contributed to it. It was one of those \"sharp\" nights when the world seems even more silent as a result of the low temperatures. It was an incredibly difficult moment to watch. I still get choked up thinking about it.\nAs kind of a side note, Vermont has the highest per capita death rate of soldiers in the U.S. It's a small state with some exceedingly rural areas where the only option open to too many of the young men and women who want to break out of that rural existence is serving in the military. The fact that some of the towns are so small makes each loss even more difficult to endure. Not that any loss is 'easier', no matter where the soldier used to live. It's just that up here, a single death can touch a greater percentage of a community.",

My car broke down on the cross-country trip, a major breakdown, my Swedish host became very ill and we\u2019ve had to revisit my European travel itinerary, I had the flu, a very bad case that seemed to never end, and a few other unexpected challenges have arisen lately.\nMay you live in only the best of interesting times.\nMissive from Book-Writing Land: Attention SF Bay Folks\nhttp://www.thepathofforgiveness.com/kim-2.0/\nI am in the homestretch on the book-writing project! The deadline is tomorrow and I have only four chapters left to write. Time to really focus! (That training as a litigator comes in handy at times.)\nKim's January Update (Before I Go Into Hiding)\nFor those I haven't already greeted this year: Happy New Year! (At what point do we stop saying that? Is it the middle of January? The end?)\nAs you might imagine, I'm busy with a lot of activities for 2015. You're not going to read much about those, yet. Mainly, I'm working on my book. (Tentative title) Integrative Law will be published by the American Bar Association later this year. Before that, I need to write it.\nContribute to the book?\nKim's Circumnavigation Continues (Won't you join me next year?)\nSubmitted by J.

The year is nearly over and the time to finish all our lists is upon us.

Lots of stops on the way: Palm Springs, Phoenix, Sedona, Albuquerque, Taos, Dallas, New Orleans. Are you on my route? The Tardis is going to live with my daughter for a few months while I go back to South Africa and Europe. I'm coming back to the US for a program at Omega Institute over July 4 weekend, if not before.\nAs always, sending love!",

        "raw_content": "CU opponent preview: CSU Rams maintain postseason goal\nCSU wide receiver Michael Gallup, left, picks up a few yards after a catch as CU defensive back Isaiah Oliver comes in for the tackle during the first quarter on Sept. 1 in Denver at Sports Authority Field. (John Leyba / The Denver Post)\nTheir top offensive weapons from last year are gone, the defense has plenty of holes to fill, and they're still getting used to a makeover of the coaching staff, but Colorado State's football team hasn't changed its annual approach.\n\"The only thing I'm focused on is today,\" Rams head coach Mike Bobo told local media in the spring. \"I don't ever go into a year thinking, 'Hey, we're going to rebuild,' or go into the year, 'Hey I think we're going to win them all.' It's focusing on today and trying to get better today.\n\"Our goals have not changed. It's to compete for our conference championship and win a conference championship and win our rivalry games. But ... it's a new year and the most important day is today.\"\nBeginning with the Rams, Buffzone.com will take a look at each of Colorado's opponents over the next 12 days. CU and CSU will square off on Aug. 31 in Denver, and it'll be a Rams team that must navigate through some growing pains to reach a bowl game for the sixth year in a row.\nIn each of Bobo's three seasons with the Rams, they've finished 7-6 overall, 5-3 in the Mountain West and capped the season with a bowl game loss.\nLast year was particularly disappointing because they felt they had the tools to challenge for a New Year's Six bowl game, but a three-game skid late in the year ended those hopes and took them out of Mountain West title contention.\nLed by all-Mountain West quarterback Nick Stevens, all-American receiver Michael Gallup and running back Dalyn Dawkins (1,399 rushing yards), the Rams had good weapons on offense. Unfortunately for the Rams, all three \u2014 as well as four starting linemen \u2014 are gone from last year.\nGoing into the fall, the Rams aren't really sure who will lead the offense.\nWashington grad transfer K.J. Carta-Samuels is a good bet to take over as the starting quarterback, but he has yet to officially practice with the Rams and has very little college experience, so it's difficult to anoint him the starter just yet. Of the quarterbacks that did participate in spring, freshman Justin McCoy may have been the best of the bunch.\nAt receiver, the Rams are expecting a lot from Preston Williams, a transfer from Tennessee, who was once one of the top recruits in the country. The running game should be in good shape with senior Izzy Matthews, junior Marvin Kinsey and sophomore Rashaad Boddie.\nDefensively, the Rams overhauled the staff and eventually settled on John Jancek as defensive coordinator. He was the coordinator at Tennessee from 2013-15. Under Jancek, the Rams are converting from a 3-4 base defense to a 4-3, and hope to be more of an attacking defense than they've been in the past.\nJust five starters are back on defense, but the middle is anchored by a pair of talented senior linebackers, Josh Watson and Tre Thomas.\nDuring the spring game in April, the defense was the better side of the ball. That could speak to the struggles on offense, but Bobo felt it was also a good sign for his defense.\n\"I liked the energy and effort from the defense throughout the spring,\" he said. \"When there's change, it's always difficult, but ... I like the way the defense is going right now.\"\nAs far the Mountain West goes, Boise State is the preseason favorite to win the Mountain division. The Rams, however, are hoping they can jell in time to make a run.\n\"You've got a new mindset every year to work and to get better and learn from your mistakes,\" Bobo said.\nFor the second year in a row, the Rams will open their season early, hosting Hawaii on Aug. 25 before taking on the Buffs six days later. ... After facing CU, the Rams host Arkansas and then visit Florida. ... In three years at Washington, Carta-Samuels completed 27 of 47 passes for 310 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. In all three years, he backed up starter Jake Browning. ... The Rams' current streak of five consecutive bowl appearance ties a school record. ... CSU is 1-7 against Power 5 conference teams over the past three years, including three consecutive losses to CU. The Rams haven't lost four in a row to the Buffs since CU's eight-game win streak from 1987-1998. ... Including newcomers and injured players, the Rams will add more than 30 scholarship players to the mix in fall that did not participate in spring. ... Although there are question marks on offense and defense, the Rams are set in the kicking game. Sophomore punter Ryan Stonehouse and senior kicker Wyatt Bryan are among the best in the MWC. Bryan was 16-for-22 on field goals last year, while Stonehouse averaged 45.9 yards per punt. ... According to the experience chart in Phil Steele's preseason publication, the Rams rank last in the country (No. 130) overall. The offensive line, with only 22 career starts, ranks 125th in experience.\"",

Every now and then I go looking for a photo of a town I haven't mentioned here before, like this one: a postcard image of Townsend, taken about fifty years ago. You're looking east on Broadway Street, out towards the Big Belt Mountains.\nThe editors of the great WPA guidebook to Montana were usually a fairly laudatory bunch, but they used the words \"drab\" and \"neglected\" to describe Townsend.

The view in this photo is anything but drab, though, thanks to the now-classic cars on the street, and all those great advertising signs. I love that stuff.\nLabels: photos, postcards, Townsend",

I was welcomed like an old school friend by a very helpful assistant who upon hearing my requirements asked me the following questions;\nSuffice to say the end of that engagement resulted in me throwing the paper into a bin and declaring that I\u2019ll stay online when looking for a new phone and that I when I do definitely won\u2019t do it with Carphone Warehouse.\n\u2018That\u2019s right, the cheapest thing we have is one pound...................... I know sir it\u2019s rubbish\u2019\nNow many of you may say \u2013 you don\u2019t have to buy a coffee \u2013 and you are correct, but that isn\u2019t really the problem \u2013 the problem is that South Western Railway have created a completely avoidable crap customer experience within their overall (literal) customer journey, which if you are a public transport provider \u2013 creates unnecessary customer angst, frustration and creates the opportunity for peer-shared negative feedback (of which there is plenty for them).\nI think businesses need to stop believing their own marketing hype (if that is possible) and really concentrate on customers. Never mind marketing, digital and sales being closely aligned \u2013 marketing and customer care within organisations should be in each other\u2019s pockets. Rather than throwing money at the same marketing channels (be this social ad\u2019s etc.) align customer experience with marketing opportunities.\nWhere the experiences are bad \u2013 they should spend shared resources fixing them (be this digital, content, offline or perceptive) and use the opportunity for strategic marketing to create (dare I say) a distraction until they are ready to shout about the fact that their customer experiences are great (ignoring that they were broken to begin with)!!\nUltimately by stepping back and observing a customer\u2019s experience from an objective angle is never a waste of time \u2013 there is always something to improve \u2013 and therefore an opportunity to increase product and brand loyalty by giving organisations the methods and confidence to constantly develop not only their engagement but also marketing strategies.",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s None of Your Damn Business! Financial Corruption in Modern Christianity\nThe Grahams: Three Generations of Wealth and Greed\n\"Share Jesus with your friends.\" (Then have them share their wallets with us!)\nI can\u2019t count the number of times have I've heard stated (while pointing out the rich life styles of big time evangelists such as Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Joyce Myers and Jesse Duplantis (to name but a few)); that while there are some Televangelist who exploit their position for monetary gain, Billy Graham has been the poster evangelist for truth and honesty . . . one of the truly great Christian preachers who is only here to preach Christ.\nHowever, just as I pointed out in my first criticism here seven years ago entitled Wheeling and Dealing J-E-S-U-S! The 21 Century Religion Business , Christian preachers are in the religion business for the money. Thus, the more souls won for Christ, the more money goes into their pockets and the more their family run religious business empires expand. Where the once small time broadcast evangelist used to need some money to get on TV, now with huge ministry overheads fueled in part by personal lavish lifestyles, especially where all family members live the lives of millionaires, many must get on TV to get even more money (many needing over several million dollars a month just to survive).\nIronically, William (Billy) Graham's family is no exception. With three generations of Grahams now part of a full-time money making Religious Industrial Complex with Billy Graham's great grandson (Billy Graham IV\u2019s son), Billy Graham V born with silver spoon in his mouth. This extended family is walking their streets of gold here and now, or as the late Reverend Ike used to preach, \u201cWhy wait for a pie-in-the-sky in the sweet-by-and-by, when you can have it now with ice-cream on top of it!\u201d\nSo consider Billy Graham's net worth of $25 million or the onetime yearly salary of his son, Franklin Graham\u2019s $1.2 million salary plus perks . (Note 1)\nThe rest of Billy Graham\u2019s children run the Billy Graham Library outside of Charlotte,NC where books, videos and trinkets (such as Bible versed book marks go for $5.00 . . . likely made in China) while Billy Graham's grandson (Billy Graham IV) runs the Billy Graham Training Center at the Cove near Asheville, NC.\nHowever, if you want proof about the Graham's financial corruption, may I suggest you start with the National Better Business Bureau's National Charity Report Directory and see for yourself:\nBilly Graham Evangelistic Association (Thus, this post's title. (I find now that the BBB has now dropped the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association from their list; it's not even rated. Truly none of your damn business!)) and Franklin Graham's Samaritan's Purse\nThus, while we at DC think we are letting the air of falsehood out of the ties of the overloaded Christian Bible bus, these big time evangelists see us as little more than a tempest in a teapot as they laugh all the way to their tax free religious banks!\nFranklin Graham has now shifted his incomes down to $566,417 with the rest in company options and perks not listed as salary. \u201cSamaritan's Purse reported gross receipts of $414,031,085 during the 2010 federal tax year. According to public records filed with the Internal Revenue Service, Graham was compensated $409,851 as chairman of Samaritan's Purse and received $156,566 from the Billy Graham Evangelical Association as CEO.\u201d (Quoted from here) For Franklin Graham's perks and compensations apart from salary, see the 2013 tax filing.",

While she was searching for a way into the story, Jandreau\u2019s career came to an abrupt end when a bronco threw him and then stomped on his head, shattering his skull.\nThe seductive distortions of Call Me By Your Name (2017)\nIf you didn\u2019t know that the Best Picture\u2013nominated Call Me By Your Name is an uncritically rapturous celebration of a same-sex relationship between an inexperienced youth played by Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet and an experienced man played by Armie Hammer, you might almost guess it from the opening titles, an arty overture for the film that follows.\nAmerican moviegoers aren\u2019t necessarily the most demanding viewers in the world, but it seems we have our limits, if dire movie-ticket sales for 2017 are any indication.\nInterview: Catholic filmmaker Timothy Reckart, director of The Star\nTimothy Reckart is the talented creator of one of the most original and memorable animated shorts in recent years, the 2012 Oscar-nominated stop-motion gem \u201cHead Over Heels.\u201d He is also a devout Catholic working in Hollywood.\nWhat does a starship need with God?\n\u201cWhat does God need with a starship?\u201d That line, uttered by William Shatner\u2019s Capt. James T. Kirk in the much-derided Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) \u2014 co-written and directed by Shatner himself \u2014 is probably that film\u2019s most famous (or infamous) moment.\nReinventing the Vault: Disney\u2019s classy new remakes\nLinking these three terrific family films is a defiantly old-fashioned, almost countercultural lack of ironic revisionism and gritty edginess. Each of them feels in some way like a kind of movie they don\u2019t make any more \u2014 if they ever did.\nApostasy, ambiguity and Silence\nShusaku Endo\u2019s 1966 novel Silence honors 17th-century Japanese martyrs who sang hymns as they succumbed slowly to grueling deaths. But it also empathizes with, perhaps even exonerates, many who capitulated to official demands for ritual renunciations of Christian faith \u2014 typically trampling on images of Jesus or Mary, called fumie, designated for this purpose.\nIn a sense every year is a good film year, but some years you have to go further afield than others.\nDoctor Strange and Hacksaw Ridge: Breaking rules and the greater good\nIn each of their latest films, the battle against a threatening power raises questions about which principles the protagonist should or shouldn\u2019t compromise in order to protect his world \u2014 questions that aren\u2019t necessarily clearly answered by the end of the film.\nHacksaw Ridge: Mel Gibson and Robert Schenkkan at the Sheen Center\nThe director and screenwriter spoke at a screening of the film at the New York Archdiocese\u2019s cultural center, and I chatted with Gibson about the film.\nThe Greater Freedom: Karol Wojtyla and Our God\u2019s Brother\nAs a seminarian in the 1940s, the future Pope St. John Paul II wrote a play about a Polish artist turned religious who helped inspire his vocation.

        "raw_content": "Home / Resources / Case Studies / One Year Study Showed a 36% Loss in Excess Body Weight\nOne Year Study Showed a 36% Loss in Excess Body Weight\nObese individuals completed a 1-year study and lost a mean 35.6% of excess body weight taking\u2026.\nPatients taking 3 mg of liraglutide daily lost a mean 35.6% of body weight.Nick Finer, MBBS, consultant endocrinologist and bariatric physician at University College London Hospitals (UCLH) and UCLH Centre for Weight Loss, Metabolic and Endocrine Surgery at University College London, United Kingdom, reported that, the number needed to treat (NNT) to achieve a loss of 10% of total body weight was only 3 mg.\nDr. Finer described a 20-week trial extended to 52 weeks in which participants with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 to 40 kg/m2, aged 18-65 years, and with a fasting plasma glucose level less than 7.0 mmol/L (126 mg/dL) underwent a placebo run-in for 2 weeks and were then randomly assigned to 1 of 6 treatment groups: subcutaneous liraglutide at 1.2 mg/day, 1.8 mg/day, 2.4 mg/day, or 3.0 mg/day; subcutaneous placebo injection; or oral orlistat, 120 mg 3 times per day.\nFrom weeks 20 to 52, the investigators and participants were blinded to liraglutide or placebo treatment. Throughout the trial, participants were on a diet providing a 500-kcal/day deficit and had increased physical activity.\nIn a post hoc analysis, the investigators explored the percentage of weight loss at 52 weeks in responders who achieved a 5% or greater weight loss at 12 weeks, as well as the percentage of excess body weight loss (EBWL) at 52 weeks with liraglutide.\nAll the groups (n = 90-98 per group) were well matched for baseline characteristics and differed little at baseline for individuals who completed 52 weeks. They were about 1 quarter male, aged 45 to 47 years, with body weight of 96.0 to 98.4 kg, BMI of 34.1 to 35.0 kg/m2, and excess body weight of 34.8 to 38.4 kg. Excess body weight is that amount in excess of having a calculated BMI of 25 kg/m2.\nAcross all the groups, a total of 356 participants completed 52 weeks.\nWeight loss at 20 weeks continued out to 52 weeks in a dose-dependent manner for liraglutide. \"You can see that orlistat patients did lose weight but were about equivalent to the lowest dose, the 1.2 mg of liraglutide, and about half that seen for the higher doses of liraglutide,\" Dr. Finer reported.\nPatients who achieved at least a 5% weight loss at 12 weeks were considered responders, and that included 75% of people receiving 3.0 mg of liraglutide per day and 32% of those receiving placebo. The placebo responder group lost 7.1 kg by 52 weeks.\nThe highest-dose liraglutide nonresponders had lost only 3.4 kg at 12 weeks \"but in fact continued to lose weight out to 1 year \u2014 6 kilos \u2014 so one might argue these were not truly non-responders,\" Dr. Finer said.\nLiraglutide responders had lost 7.9 kg at 12 weeks and by 52 weeks had lost 11.1 kg, which was a total body weight loss of nearly 12%.\nOnly 38% of the orlistat group were responders. \"In terms of the ultimate weight loss in the responders\u2019 group, there was not a large difference between orlistat and liraglutide,\" D. Finer said. \"If you did respond to orlistat, you did well. It was just you were much less likely to respond.\"\nIncreasing liraglutide doses were associated with increasing amounts of EBWL; a 35.6% EBWL was seen with the 3.0-mg dose, which is the dose being carried forward in further weight loss trials.\nNo one who completed 52 weeks of treatment with liraglutide, 3.0 mg, gained weight, but 27% of those receiving placebo and 13% of those taking orlistat did.\n\"I would like to emphasize that liraglutide is not licensed as a weight loss agent at this stage and has not completed its safety trials let alone its long-term efficacy trials in phase 3 trials,\" Dr. Finer cautioned the audience.\nIn an intention-to-treat analysis, the NNT to achieve a 5% weight loss at 1 year was 2 for liraglutide, 3.0 mg; 3 for orlistat; and 4 for placebo. To achieve a 10% weight loss, the NNTs were 3, 7, and 10, respectively. \"I think that we should be encouraged by these data,\" Dr. Finer said. \"I think there\u2019s often a lot of negativity, but an NNT of 3 [for liraglutide] for a 5% weight loss is really quite impressive.\"\nDr. Finer said the 35% EBWL with liraglutide stacks up favorably against the findings seen with bariatric surgery. \"The use of excess body weight loss and also, I should say, numbers needed to treat, I think give clearly defined weight loss targets and perhaps a more optimistic interpretation of these data,\" he concluded.\nLuca Busetto, MD, from the Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences and a member of the Obesity Center at the University of Padova in Padova, Italy, commented that newer, effective antiobesity drugs may in the future be the most appropriate treatment for people with class 1 obesity.\nFor the latest on GLP-1 Agonist Therapy, check out our special topics page with all our GLP-1-related News Articles, Special Features, Tools for Your Practice, Homerun Slides, and much more.\n\"Probably the potency of these new drugs will be sufficient enough in order to solve the problem,\" he said. \"So I think that we will not need surgery any more in patients with BMI between 30 to 35 [kg/m2], and probably also in the BMI class 35 to 40 [kg/m2] we may have some competition between drugs and surgery, at least less invasive surgery.\" For larger patients, Dr. Busetto thinks that surgery will remain the most efficacious therapy for at least the next 5 to 10 years.\nFor patients who can be managed with drugs, he thinks therapy will probably have to be life-long, although long-term data are lacking. \"Obesity is a chronic disease, and probably we need to think of treating obesity as we treat hypertension, as we treat type 2 diabetes,\" Dr. Busetto said.\nBut as with other chronic medications, adherence may be a problem, especially with an injectable drug such as liraglutide, although development of longer-acting GLP-1 analogues that require less frequent injections may help.\nDr. Busetto predicted that liraglutide for weight loss may face some regulatory hurdles both in the United States and in Europe because licensing agencies may require not only demonstration of efficacy for weight loss but also demonstration of cardiovascular safety, \"probably as a consequence of the problem with sibutramine in the past.\"\nDr. Finer has been an advisory board member and done paid lecturing and commercially sponsored research for Novo Nordisk A/S. He has also received lecture and consultancy fees from Roche in the past. The study was funded by Novo Nordisk A/S.

Currently, modified gastric bypass surgery is used to treat type 2 diabetes. This intervention has been utilized since the 1990s. The procedure reached 83% efficiency and currently the therapeutic mechanism is still uncertain.\nThe purpose of this study is to clarify the outcome and the mechanism of modified gastric bypass surgery on glucose metabolism. The study was designed as a retrospective study that analyzed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), and blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent modified Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. The study consisted of 50 patients from January 2006 to September 2014. Blood was drawn before surgery at 1 week and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. Lab values that were recorded were fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, fasting glucagon-like peptide-1, 2-hour GLP-1, fasting GIP, and 2-hour GIP. The recorded data were expressed as the mean + SD.\nThe results showed that preoperative fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial decreased at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery (p<0.01). HBA1c decreased significantly at 3 and 6 months after surgery (p<0.05). Fasting GLP-1 and 2-hour GLP-1 values increased significantly at 1 week and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery (p<0.01). Fasting GIP values were decreased significantly 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery (p<0.05) and 2-hour GIP values decreased significantly at 1 week and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery (p<0.01). 2-hour GIP was significantly higher before surgery in comparison to fasting GIP (p<0.01). However, there was no difference noticed after the surgery.\nTo conclude, the present study demonstrated that after a modified Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, patients exhibited decreased levels of fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in comparison to the values taken before surgery.\n2-hour postprandial blood glucose and fasting blood glucose were decreased significantly at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery.\nHbA1c values were reduced at 3 and 6 months after the surgery in comparison to the values taken before the surgery.\nModified Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery amends digestive tract reconstruction which leads to the improvement of glycemic control in type 2 diabetics.\nXiong SW, Cao J, Liu XM, Deng XM, Liu Z, Zhang FT. \u201cEffect of Modified Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery on GLP-1, GIP in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.\u201d Gastroenterol Res Pract. 2015;2015:625196.\nPrevious Mortality Rates in Type 2 Patients Exposed to Glargine\nNext FDA Approves First PCSK9 Inhibitor",

At the last meeting the group discussed the new wetlands area which had struggled a bit with the very dry summer, an issue this area of the park doesn\u2019t usually face! Edinburgh and Lothian Greenspace Trust and the council are also looking at the potential of a path that leads to the wetland area to improve access. The Steering Group also heard about summer holiday activities that were organised for a variety of local groups and discussed upcoming events including a potential bird walk at the end of November. The Steering Group is keen to collect photos of the park and are planning to organise a photography competition through the Facebook page.\nThe next meeting is on Wednesday 31st October and the group are keen to have more local residents involved.

When did this happen?\"\n\"Last night.\" Was it only yesterday?\n\"Yes, but she wouldn\u2019t let him do a full exam.\"\n\"I know. She should make an appointment to see her own doctor in a couple of days. Someone she\u2019s comfortable with. Did she press charges?\"\n\"No. She refuses to bring the police into this.\"\n\"That could be a mistake. The closure of knowing the rapist is punished can go a long way in her healing.\"\n\"This was a friend. Someone we know and . . . and trust.\"\n\"He wasn\u2019t responsible. I doubt we ever find who was.\"\n\"It\u2019s not important. Tell me how to help her.\"\n\"Did she call you when this happened?\"\n\"No, no I walked in. I pulled him off . . . I . . .\"\n\"So you rescued her.\"\n\"Not in time.\"\n\"Sounds like you\u2019re going to need someone to talk to as well.\"\n\"I\u2019m not important. I\u2019m worried because she\u2019s so calm, so detached, except for the fear of touch you'd think this\nhad happened to someone else.\"\n\"Denial. That\u2019s very common. At least she\u2019s not blaming herself.\"\n\"No, not that. She knows what really happened.\"\n\"Can you get her to call in? We know what she\u2019s going through. We\u2019ve been thought it ourselves. You\u2019re not . . . she\u2019s not suicidal is she?\"\n\"What?\" He hadn\u2019t been worried about that. Now he was. \"I have to go.\"\n\"Wait! Listen, I want you to call me back. Patsy, ask for Patsy, okay?\"\n\"Yeah, I gotta go.\" He hung up and headed for the door. Her gun, when had he last seen her gun? He tried to call her apartment, but got no answer, that only fueled his fear.\nWhen he got there he knocked and again received no answer. He slipped his key into the lock and entered.\n\"What are you doing here?\" My god, she was armed. He raised his hands away from his side.\n\"I called and there was no answer.\"\n\"I was in the tub. Why did you let yourself in?\"\n\"I\u2019m sorry, Scully. I was concerned. I didn\u2019t think. Please put the gun down.\" She glanced down as though she\u2019d forgotten it. She lowered it and placed it on her coffee table.\n\"I didn\u2019t mean to sca - startle you, Scully.\"\n\"Are you going to try to smother me, Mulder?\" She sighed.\nShe watched him deflate, \"Yeah, I guess I am.\"\nHe was startled at her slight smile. \"At least you\u2019re honest about it.\"\nThe smile was gone as quickly as it appeared.\n\"I have a headache.\"\n\"Why don\u2019t you lie down here on the couch and watch an old movie with me. I\u2019ll massage your feet.\"\nShe drew back at that suggestion.\n\"Just your feet, Scully. I promise not to go above the ankles. Okay?\"\n\"I\u2019m not getting rid of you, am I?\"\n\"Not in this lifetime.\" Whoops, too much. Her eyes moistened, then she took a deep breath.\n\"I guess we could try that. Let me get dressed.\" She returned back shortly in tights and an oversize sweatshirt. \"Did you find a movie?\"\n\"Planet of the Apes?\"\n\"Why not.\"\nShe sat on the couch, forcing herself to lean back in some semblance of relaxation. He waited, he couldn\u2019t hurry this. If she couldn\u2019t let him touch her feet, he\u2019d try something else tomorrow. Whatever worked for her.\nHe realized she had placed her feet so that her toes brushed against his jeans. He still made no move. She exhaled and slid her feet into his lap. He released the breath he was holding and lightly rubbed the top of her foot.\nShe nodded, concentrating on the TV screen. He felt the tension leave her and realized shortly that she was asleep. Good, she needed the rest. At one point he stopped the massage, but she stirred uneasily so he resumed.\n\"Beneath the Planet of the Apes\" had begun before she woke. She stretched, but didn\u2019t withdraw her feet.\n\"I probably won\u2019t sleep at all tonight.\"\n\"You can keep me company then.\"\n\"Where do you think you\u2019re going to be?\" She knew, but she couldn\u2019t let him know how much she wanted him here.\n\"Right here, on my couch.\"\n\"Your couch?\" He grinned and nodded. \"It\u2019s not necessary.\"\n\"You might have another nightmare. I\u2019ve got lots of experience in that area.\"\n\"Name it.\" His relief was too great to refuse her anything.\n\"Go check on Skinner.\"\nHe couldn\u2019t help it, he was stunned. \"You want me to . . . \"\n\"Please. I . . . I have you, but he doesn\u2019t have anyone.\" She couldn\u2019t quite meet his eyes.\n\"Okay. What should I bring for dinner?\"\n\"Whatever you want. I\u2019m not really hungry.\"\n\"Can I ask a favor in return?\" He ducked down to try to see her eyes.\n\"What?\" She was wary, but Mulder wouldn\u2019t ask more than she could handle.\n\"Would you call this number, ask for Patsy.\"\n\"Who\u2019s Patsy?\"\n\"I think she could be a friend. I won\u2019t be long.\" Tell her too much and she\u2019d refuse outright.\n\"I won\u2019t be long.\" He let himself out; he was feeling better about her. But Skinner - damn.\nHe was beginning to think Skinner wasn\u2019t going to come to the door, when he finally heard him.\n\"What do you want Mulder?\"\n\"Just to check on you.\"\n\"I\u2019m not a child.\"\n\"No, but you could use a friend.\"\n\"That might be true, if I deserved one.\"\n\"Well, you\u2019ve got two, whether you want them or not.\" Mulder stood his ground, he wasn\u2019t leaving until he\u2019d done what he promised Scully.\n\"Scully sent me to check on you.\"\n\"Oh god.\" He stepped back and allowed Mulder to enter the apartment.\n\"Have you had any problems from the drugs?\"\n\"You mean any more problems?\" Mulder shrugged. \"Look, you don\u2019t want to be around me, and I\u2019m not exactly comfortable with you. I\u2019m fine, tell her not to worry about me.\"\n\"Is your nose going to be okay?\"\n\"Yeah. He said I\u2019d be as handsome as ever.\" He said bitterly.\nMulder didn\u2019t have an answer to that, so he made none. They sat is silence for a few minutes.\n\"She is all right?\" Skinner finally allowed himself to ask.\n\"I think she will be. She got some rest this afternoon.\"\n\"Good. Look, I\u2019m checking on a transfer so that she won\u2019t have to see me any more.\"\n\"I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a decision you should make right now.\" Mulder cautioned him.\n\"She shouldn\u2019t have to contend with my presence.\"\n\"Even before she spoke with you, she told me something was wrong. Your actions were too out of character.\" So why did he still feel so stiff around the guy? At least Skinner couldn\u2019t remember what he\u2019d done.\n\"She\u2019s more generous than I am. Whatever the catalyst, I\u2019m responsible for what happened. I have to live with that the rest of my life.\"\n\"Sir . . . \"\n\"Don\u2019t.\" Skinner barked at him.\n\"Don\u2019t call me sir. I can\u2019t . . . it\u2019s not appropriate.\"\n\"You\u2019re my superior.\" Skinner snorted at that. \"And you\u2019ve saved my ass countless times. Scully\u2019s too.\"\n\"Oh Jesus, Mulder. Could you leave now?\"\n\"Sorry. That came out badly.\"\n\"I know what you\u2019re trying to do, Mulder. Part of me even appreciates it, but I want you to leave. I need to be alone.\"\n\"I don\u2019t need a mother, Mulder. Thanks for coming by.\" Skinner stood, leaving no doubt that the visit was finished.\n\"I\u2019ll be staying at Scully\u2019s tonight. Call me if you need anything.\"\n\"Sure, Mulder.\"\n\"When will you be back at work?\" He hadn\u2019t done anything to help, and Scully needed information that only he could obtain from Skinner.\n\"I\u2019ve got a couple of weeks due me. I\u2019ll probably take them now.\"\n\"I\u2019ll call you tomorrow.\"\n\"Fine. Look, you can do me more good looking after her. Okay? Oh, listen, just for your information, Tucker\u2019s disappeared. His apartment\u2019s empty as well.\"\nMulder nodded, he\u2019d halfway expected that. He let Skinner see him out. He knew Skinner wasn\u2019t okay, but there wasn\u2019t a whole lot he could do. He didn\u2019t think there was a hot line to help him.\nAfter picking up Thai food, he headed back to Scully\u2019s. She opened the door for him and had obviously been crying.\n\"Scully? What?\" He wanted to hold her, but he didn\u2019t want to scare her.\n\"How do you know Patsy?\"\n\"Patsy? Oh, I called her. I thought she might be able to help.\" He had to fight to keep his arms down, not to embrace her.\n\"How would you even know about . . . \"\n\"The doctor gave me the number last night, for you.\"\n\"But why did you call?\" She was looking him in the eye finally, wanting to see more than the words.\n\"I . . . I just wanted to know what I could do. How I could help you.\"\nApparently she saw what she wanted. \"Mulder, I . . . \" she turned from him and snagged another tissue. \"How\u2019s Skinner?\"\n\"Not too well. He\u2019s talking about a transfer, so you won\u2019t have to see him.\"\nShe made no comment. He followed her into the kitchen and began laying out the food.\n\"Thai? You don\u2019t like . . . \"\n\"I can\u2019t . . . Mulder, I can\u2019t have you treating me like this. It\u2019s worse than the cancer.\"\n\"Let me do this, Scully. While you need it. You\u2019ve always been there for me.\"\nHe actually got her to eat a few bites by teasing and cajoling. She was relaxing.\nHe grabbed the phone before it could wake her the next morning. \"Hello?\"\n\"Hello. Is Dana there?\"\n\"Patsy?\" He caught the voice.\n\"Yes. Is that you, Fox?\"\n\"Sorry I woke you. What are you doing there?\"\n\"I stayed over, in case she had nightmares.\" Funny, she didn\u2019t make him feel like he needed a reason.\n\"She was right, you are special.\"\n\"You talked about me?\" Did he want to know what they\u2019d said?\n\"I asked about her support system. You seem to be it.\"\n\"Oh no, she\u2019s got lots of friends and family.\" He relaxed a little.\n\"Whom she\u2019s chosen not to confide in. You\u2019re the only one she trusts.\"\nMulder had to swallow around the lump in his throat. \"It\u2019s mutual.\"\nThey spoke for several minutes, then Patsy paused, \"Fox, can I ask you a question?\"\n\"I asked Dana this last night and her answer confuses me.\"\n\"Were you lovers before this happened to you?\"\n\"To her.\" Mulder corrected.\n\"Before this happened to her.\"\n\"Don\u2019t kid yourself, Fox. This happened to both of you. Were you?\"\n\"No, we\u2019ve never been lovers. Why?\"\n\"Same answer she gave.\" It was almost a sigh.\n\"You don\u2019t believe us?\"\n\"You don\u2019t talk like just friends. Is there any reason . . . \" she wasn\u2019t sure how to ask this.\n\"I\u2019m not gay, Patsy.\" Just terminally celibate apparently.\n\"I\u2019m sorry. I didn\u2019t mean to imply . . . \"\n\"I just have superhuman self control.\" That\u2019s when he heard her laugh. She came around the corner.\n\"Do I get to see your cape?\"\n\"How long have you been standing there?\" He sputtered, face flushing.\n\"Long enough. Is that Patsy?\" He nodded and handed her the phone.\n\"I\u2019ll go make coffee. You can gossip about me while I\u2019m gone.\"\n\"I like purple.\"\n\"What?\" He turned back, confused.\n\"For your cape.\"\nHe grabbed the remote and pretended to throw it at her, and she smiled. A real smile, the first he\u2019d seen since . . . He quickly retreated to the kitchen, so his emotions wouldn\u2019t spill over.\nHe handed her the cup when she came in the kitchen to join him. \"It was nice of her to call.\"\n\"Patsy\u2019s been very good for me. I think I\u2019ll go to her group this week.\" She was studying the coffee, not looking at him.\n\"Yeah, that\u2019s probably a good idea.\"\n\"There\u2019s a group for . . . for, uh, spouses and partners, if . . . \"\n\"When does it meet?\"\n\"Tuesdays at seven\"\n\"Okay. What?\" Was that relief that flickered across her face?\n\"Nothing. Uh, I think I embarrassed Patsy. She asked about your background. It unnerved her when she realized she was giving advice to a psychologist.\"\n\"Not in this instance.\"\n\"Listen, I\u2019m throwing you out tonight. You can\u2019t stay here.\"\n\"Hey, my snoring is no louder than yours.\"\nShe tried to glare at him, but couldn\u2019t sustain it. \"Really, Mulder. I need to see if I can be here alone. I can\u2019t let myself . . . \"\n\"Lean on me?\"\n\"It\u2019s more than that. Don\u2019t be upset with me. I have to prove this to myself.\"\n\"Yeah, I know. But you will call me, anytime, I\u2019m not going to be sleeping anyway.\"\n\"When does Patsy\u2019s group meet?\"\n\"Tuesday\u2019s, same time as yours.\"\n\"Good, we can go together.\"\nNot his idea of a good time, sitting around, sharing \"feelings\" with men he didn\u2019t know. Hell, if it would help Scully he\u2019d dance with them. He\u2019d finally met Patsy, when he dropped Scully off at her room. She was younger than he had thought, but she seemed to know her stuff. He didn\u2019t want to think about where she might have had to learn it. But she seemed to have come through okay, that\u2019s what was important.\nHe joined the men in the room they had sent him to. Their leader seemed nice enough. Ben was probably his age, shorter, slightly receding hairline, and seemed to have a good handle on the group. Everyone introduced himself or herself, first names only. Um, no other Fox\u2019s, when was the last time that had happened?\nThey had barely finished the introductions when Russ, another newcomer broke in, \"Listen, how long she is going to be like this?\"\n\"Like what, Russ?\" Ben asked quietly.\n\"She won\u2019t let me touch her. I mean it\u2019s been a couple of weeks already and she don\u2019t want sex or nothing. Her bruises are gone, but she won\u2019t even let me . . . \"\n\"Russ, only the bruises you can see are healed. She\u2019s got a lot of . . . \"\n\"You mean she\u2019s bruised down in there too?\"\n\"Probably, but I meant emotionally. You need to understand how violated she\u2019s feeling. Control was taken from her at the most basic level. Her own body was violated. Imagine how you would feel if someone broke into your car and stole something extremely valuable, irreplaceable, out of it. Now magnify that 1000%. Can you imagine something like that?\"\nFrom the look on this face, Mulder was pretty sure that he couldn\u2019t, but he kept quiet.\n\"Well, okay, but how long does that mean I have to go without? I mean, I didn\u2019t do her and she\u2019s treating me like the plague.\"\nMulder stood from his chair. He wasn\u2019t going to walk out, but he couldn\u2019t sit there and listen quietly. He walked over to the coffeepot and poured himself a cup. He missed the answer, whatever it was, but Russ seemed suitably subdued when he returned to his seat.\n\"Fox, how are you doing?\" Ben drew him into the group.\n\"I\u2019m fine, concerned about her.\"\n\"Is she behaving differently?\"\n\"Well, she startles easily. I try to make more noise so she always knows where I am. And if she takes a nap I try to sit where she can see me as soon as she opens her eyes.\"\n\"That\u2019s very good. Is she wary of touching also?\"\n\"Yeah. I try to be very careful there because I\u2019ve come to realize that I always touched her a lot. I make sure she initiates all touching now, or try to.\"\nBen was looking at him strangely. \"You have experience with this?\"\n\"No, it\u2019s what seems to make her comfortable.\"\n\"Well, it\u2019s a couple of the techniques we recommend around here. I\u2019d say you\u2019re handling things well with her. How about you?\"\n\"Me? Listen, everyone keeps talking about me, I\u2019m fine. She\u2019s the important thing here.\" Mulder knew he sounded defensive, but everyone kept harping on him. Nothing had happened to him, except maybe his life being shattered.\n\"Why do you feel so guilty?\" Ben spoke quietly.\n\"I\u2019m not guilty.\" Well, not really.\n\"Could you have prevented what happened?\"\nMulder was silent for a minute. \"If I\u2019d gone with her . . . \"\n\"Was it a place you should have been, somewhere you knew she was going that she wouldn\u2019t be safe?\"\n\"No.\" He would never have foreseen that. If he hadn\u2019t actually walked in he still wouldn\u2019t be able to reconcile it.\n\"Then you couldn\u2019t have prevented it. Of course it would help if you believed that. Bill, why don\u2019t you tell him about your situation?\"\nIt was a good two hours. Mulder did have a better understanding of his own guilt. These men had been through a lot too, a side of things he hadn\u2019t dwelled on. It seemed that some of the stories had even gotten through to Russ. He would be back next week, if they were in town. If she was able to work, that is.\nHe headed up the hall to meet Scully, and spotted her outside the room the women had used, talking with Patsy. When she turned to watch him come toward her, he could tell she\u2019d been crying. Damn. His hand automatically rose to touch her, but he remembered in time.\nScully reached out and took his hand, placing it firmly on the small of her back. He gave her a shy smile and after a quick goodbye to Patsy, they walked out together.\nPatsy watched them leave. You\u2019d almost think she was marked there, the placement of his hand had been so precise. She\u2019d watched so many couples be torn apart by this, it was nice to see a couple she felt confident would get through it because of each other rather than in spite of.\n\"You ready to go, Sweetheart?\" She hadn\u2019t heard him approach.\n\"Yeah. I had a good group tonight. You?\"\n\"Sure did.\" Ben put his arm around her and her arms went around his waist.\n\"Makes me remember how lucky I am.\"\nThey followed Mulder and Scully into the night.",

        "title": "Liu Yi: Trekking Mount Huang - DUKE EAST ASIA NEXUS My title",
        "raw_content": "Trekking Mount Huang\n:\u200bMount Huang is one of the most famous mountains in China, acclaimed for its unique pines, strange stones, sea of clouds, and thermal spring. The peak, called the \u201cloveliest mountain in China,\u201d has been famous since ancient times. Many emperors and poets visited the mountain to worship the gods and to show respect for nature, and many works of art and literature have been created about this mount.\nWe started to climb the mountain at 4 pm, and it took us about four hours to reach the summit. Through the climbing, the path\u2019s slope varied, becoming level at times and steep at others. Halfway, we came across three college students, with whom we shared food and took photos. Later we continued on alone without them since my group wanted to arrive at the top of the mountain before dark.\nHere are some pictures we took of the magnificent scenery along the way:\nThe steps we climbed\n\u200bWhile we climbed, we often came across people shouldering loads. They were transporting garbage from the top to the foot of the mountain. We felt great sympathy for them. Though we carried nothing, we were already exhausted, whereas they were burdened with such heavy loads. They had to do this trek twice a day.\nSunset at the top of the mountain\nAbout 8pm, we finally arrived at the top of the hill, called Guang Ming Ding. There, we found many tourists carrying tents. We realized that we had made a huge mistake in neglecting to carry tents and warm clothes, because as soon as we were at the top, we felt the coldness piercing our bones. Those who prepared well brought tents and wore winter clothes, while others booked rooms in the only hotel on the hill. Not expecting the coldness, we had innocently expected that we would just spend the night on the mountain, counting the stars. As we couldn\u2019t stand the wind and cold any longer, we decided to move to the hotel to check whether there were any rooms left. Unfortunately, there were so many visitors that we could no longer book a room. Amidst this misfortune, we were lucky that inside the hotel lobby, there were some chairs where we could sit and rest. It was warmer inside than out, so we decided to stay there and spend the night. It was really tough at the time, as we were so exhausted, to be without a bed to sleep the night. I didn\u2019t sleep at all that night; never in my life will I ever do such a thing again\u2014it was so painstaking. But when I look back now, it was really a special memory. I survived in spite of all the difficulties, and I feel proud of myself. It was a proof of our youth.\nThose who climb the mountain at night expect to see the sunrise. The sun rises very early in the mountain area, around four to five in the morning. At 4 am, we left the hotel to reach the prime spot to see the sunrise. It was extraordinarily cold, especially because we were in a high and open space, where we could clearly hear the wind blow. We huddled together, sleepy, tired, and chilled, waiting for the sun to appear. However, the moment the sun emerged, I felt that all the effort was worth it.\nAfter seeing the sunrise, we began our descent. This extremely narrow path is called One-Line-Sky.\nThis special tree in Mount Huang is called the Guest-Greeting Pine because its trunks lean only to one side as if welcoming the visitors.\nThis journey not only presented me a wondrous mountain with stunning views, but also allowed me time to think. The universe is so marvelous, carving these many great mountains and rivers. Faced with nature\u2019s masterpiece, we humans are so small. From this distance, the problems and challenges we think we are facing seem unimportant, and the world still functions without us working. So while we are still young, we should act as though we are young. We should go out into the world and see it in different perspectives, which will certainly open up a new world for us. The paths we go through, the books we read, and the people we meet will eventually come back to shape who we are.\nLiu Yi is a senior at Wuhan University.",

        "title": "Insufficient Evidence that Bed Bugs are a Vector for Disease Transmission to Humans",
        "raw_content": "Insufficient Evidence that Bed Bugs are a Vector for Disease Transmission to Humans\nRead the complete Resident Focus\nReference: JAMA. 2009 Apr 1;301(13):1358-1366, (level 3 [lacking direct] evidence)\nBed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are arthropods that feed on the blood of humans and/or domestic animals. Typically they are uncommon in developed countries, but a resurgence of outbreaks has increased medical interest. It has been postulated that bed bugs could transmit pathogens to humans. Over 40 pathogens have been considered candidates for transmission, but the evidence is very heterogeneous and sometimes incomplete concerning this issue. According to this clinical review article, evidence for disease transmission by bed bugs is lacking.\nIn this systematic review, authors reviewed and summarized 53 articles that met inclusion criteria. Information published from 1960 to 2008 was sought using computer-assisted literature searches in computer databases, including MEDLINE and EMBASE; manual searches were also used to identify pertinent articles in sources frequently not included in computer databases, such as newspapers and older journals. The search strategy was limited to English language papers and used the medical subject heading term \u201cbed bugs\u201d with publication types including clinical trials or randomized controlled trials. There were 16 studies found investigating potential disease transmission of Chagas disease, filariasis, HIV, or hepatitis B virus (HBV).\nVector competence refers to the ability to acquire, maintain, and transmit an infectious agent. Bed bugs were hepatitis B surface antigen positive in samples collected from South Africa, Senegal, Egypt, the Ivory Coast, and China, thus displaying pathogen acquisition. Regarding maintenance of infection, HBV DNA has been detected by polymerase chain reaction assays in bed bugs and their excrement up to 6 weeks after feeding on infected blood. However, no evidence of viral replication has been detected in bed bugs manually infected with HBV. In regards to transmission of disease, an experiment with chimpanzees failed to demonstrate infections or seroconversion in the primates 2 weeks after HBV-infected bed bugs took a blood meal from them. In another study, despite 100% reduction of bed bug numbers in a bed bug eradication project in Gambia, there was no effect on rates of HBV infection in children. The conclusion drawn from this study was that Hepatitis B was probably being spread through some route other than bed bugs.\nThere is still a possibility that certain illnesses may spread through bed bug bites. In 1 study of Chagas disease, white mice were infected with Trypanosoma cruzi (the causative agent) 15 days after being bitten by infected bed bugs. No human studies have been done to see if Chagas disease can be spread to humans through bed bugs.\nSupport for bed bugs as vectors for transmission of human disease in general is lacking. No study has been performed showing that an infection is passed to humans through bed bugs and one study did not find that bed bug eradication changed HBV infection rates.

Odetta's 1965 take on Bob Dylan's \"Baby, I'm in the Mood for You\" is quite a departure from Cyrus' latest psychedelic collaboration with the Flaming Lips, but made the song her own.\nI spoke with Costello on the phone Wednesday to preview his Oct. 10 concert stop in OKC, and he heard the influence of Oklahoma-born rockabilly pioneer Wanda Jackson.\n\"She sounded just like Wanda,\" Costello said. \"I mean that as the highest compliment. I was super impressed by the way she sang. Because I don\u2019t listen much to that kind of music usually, and she come out and just played with The Roots doing this kind of like 1962 Bob Dylan song. It\u2019s a folk/blues song and she just killed it and she sounded just like Wanda. There wouldn\u2019t be any higher praise.\"\n\"You can see it on the cyber, I believe,\" he added with a laugh.\nMy full interview with Costello will run Oct. 7 in The Oklahoman.\nCheck out the excellent performance below.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61MCDFy-cJY\nRe: Elvis , 'Detour' , plays Oklahoma City Oct. 10th 2016\nPostby Azmuda \u00bb Mon Oct 03, 2016 12:13 am\njohnfoyle wrote: Who's going ?\nPerhaps former resident Vince Gill ...\nhttp://okgazette.com/2016/10/05/elvis-c ... um=twitter\nElvis Costello remembers country music legend Merle Haggard ahead of return to Oklahoma City\nThe death of country music legend Merle Haggard left an impression on Elvis Costello, the prolific London-born Rock and Roll Hall of Fame musician and singer-songwriter behind classic late-\u201970s new wave and punk rock releases My Aim Is True and This Year\u2019s Model.\nIt is not unusual that Costello would encounter another famous musician.\nCostello is a self-proclaimed serial collaborator. Of his more than two dozen career studio albums, six were made with other bands or artists. He has produced for Paul McCartney, The Pogues, The Specials and Nick Lowe (his own longtime producer).\nFor an Englishman, the musician is also incredibly well versed in classic American country music. Costello released Almost Blue, a collection of classic country covers, in 1981. The album includes a version of \u201cTonight the Bottle Let Me Down\u201d by Haggard, the Okie from Muskogee and Oklahoma Music Hall of Famer (technically California-born) who died in April on his 79th birthday from complications of pneumonia.\nDuring a recent Oklahoma Gazette phone interview, Costello reminisced about meeting Haggard. Costello\u2019s acclaimed Detour tour makes a Monday stop at Chevy Bricktown Events Center, 429 E. California Ave.\nCostello told The New York Times in an October 2015 Q&A that while growing up in England, hearing music by artists like Haggard and George Jones was one of the first times the country genre really clicked in his mind. Haggard was long known for earnest storytelling and an authentic outlaw aesthetic Costello could see when the two met at a show in 2009.\n\u201cI got a picture [with Haggard], and when he suddenly passed, I found it in my files, and boy, he just looks so great,\u201d Costello said. \u201cHe has such an incredible head; his features are so strong.\u201d\nThe musician was attending a surprise salute to iconic country songwriter Hank Cochran in Nashville. Costello remembers being in a room with other legends like Cowboy Jack Clement and Bobby Bare before the show when he came across Haggard.\nCostello, unlike some other A-list entertainers in the industry, is a genuine audiophile and music nerd, even at age 62. Though he counts Haggard as one of his biggest country influences, he said he still sometimes discovers songs in the artist\u2019s back catalogue that blow him away.\n\u201cThat\u2019s one of the things about him,\u201d Costello said. \u201cYou think you know all the songs, and then you find a half-dozen more that you lost sight of.\u201d\nIn addition to \u201cThe Bottle Let Me Down,\u201d Costello occasionally performed \u201cI Threw Away the Rose\u201d at gigs. He remembers his impromptu decision to do the song at a Detour show in San Diego, a four-hour drive from Haggard\u2019s hometown in Bakersfield, California, the night Haggard died.\nIn recent years, Costello has frequently performed alongside Atlanta roots-rock sister duo Larkin Poe, which is scheduled to open for and back him during his Oklahoma City concert. Costello said they were onstage with him when he launched into his unannounced tribute.\n\u201cBy the name and title of the tour, you can detour quite literally,\u201d he said. \u201cIn this case, I just went straight to the song on the emotion of the night, and it felt like a really beautiful version of the song because it wasn\u2019t considered, it wasn\u2019t sentimental. I didn\u2019t say anything ahead of it.\u201d\nThe Detour solo concert series started in April and is partly inspired by Costello\u2019s 2015 New York Times best-selling memoir Unfaithful Music & Disappearing Ink. The artist uses the partially improvised shows to tell personal anecdotes and play whichever songs he feels like performing that day, including big hits, deeper cuts and tributes like \u201cI Threw Away the Rose.\u201d\n\u201cYou just have to feel for the right moment, and I didn\u2019t repeat that [song],\u201d he said. \u201cI just did it for that night.\u201d\nFans who see Costello in Oklahoma City will see the musician perform in front of a giant screen featuring projected pictures of Costello\u2019s family and personal photos mixed in with other images the artist deems appropriate for this show. No two Detour shows are identical, he said.\n\u201cYou\u2019re going to see something that you won\u2019t see again,\u201d he said. \u201cEven if we came back and brought it back again next year, it would be different again. We\u2019re all in it together because without the audience, I\u2019m just up there on my own with my songs and a rack of guitars.\u201d\nCostello said the stripped-down, intimate shows help him find greater personal meaning in crowd favorites he has played thousands of times before.\nInstead of going through the motions, partially hidden behind a wall of sound, Costello incorporates the audience\u2019s energy to complete the show\u2019s equation.\n\u201cThat\u2019s exactly what this tour is built to do \u2014 to come somewhere and not give you what you already know,\u201d he said. \u201cYou find people that value the stuff that\u2019s all around them.\u201d\nPostby johnfoyle \u00bb Fri Oct 07, 2016 6:45 am\nhttp://m.newsok.com/article/5521298?utm ... ar-Twitter\nElvis Costello takes 'Detour' concert to Oklahoma City\nElvis Costello wants his concert to be a living thing.\nThe English singer- songwriter, 62, will bring his \u201cDetour\u201d concert to Oklahoma for a second time Monday night. Along with it comes a continuing Costello family tradition of performing live that stretches back to his musical grandfather, a huge stage prop shaped like an old-school TV set and stripped-down interpretations of iconic material spanning Costello's 40-year career.\n\u201cI'm there on my own, so you're hearing them the way I would have first played them to the band, and in some cases you're hearing ... something I understand about the song now that I maybe didn't understand when I first wrote it,\u201d Costello said in a phone interview with The Oklahoman. \u201cThe humor or the sadness in the songs strikes me a different way, and that's how it comes out, and that's how it stays alive ... instead of a recitation of the past.\u201d\nThe Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's retrospective solo tour overlapped with his recently released memoir \u201cUnfaithful Music & Disappearing Ink.\u201d You might hear some of the same stories, but there's a big difference between the two. When writing, Costello searched inward. Onstage, he's reaching outward to connect with an audience.\n\u201cYou're not up there giving your confession,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the book, you can look at memories in a different way, and if you've seen any of the book, you'll know it doesn't proceed in a chronological order. So much of it's driven by the way the memories link up and, of course, on the stage what's very different is you're singing these songs. People have their own memory of them, so they're not looking into you telling a tale.\u201d\nMusical mementos\nThe \u201cDetour\u201d set is rooted in the past, but Costello said he doesn't aim to be nostalgic. His stage helps.\nAny image can get thrown on Costello's TV backdrop. He uses this to again connect with his audience and to share musical mementos he's discovered while touring. It also keeps Costello from missing home.\n\u201cLast time we played in Oklahoma we played in Tulsa at Cain's Ballroom. ... I think it was Bob Wills' 110th birthday, and so Bob went up on the screen,\u201d Costello said. \u201cWhen we're playing in Memphis, you might put Al Jackson Jr. on the screen, to see how many people really light up when they see that face. It's nothing to do with the song I'm singing. I'm just acknowledging that this is music I love.\u201d\nMaybe Oklahoma-born jazz trumpeter Chet Baker will get a shout out Monday. Costello met Baker during a short-notice '80s recording session in London, which led to the recording of the song \u201cShipbuilding\u201d and opened up Baker to a new audience. Costello remembered sitting down with the Okie for an interview.\n\u201cHe had some hard times, he had some serious problems with addiction, and at different times it took him way down,\u201d Costello said.\n\u201cHe talked about Oklahoma, he talked about his upbringing, the difference in the musical scene where he came from to the music that he dreamed of playing. ... It's a story that pops up in a few of my tunes, the idea that you maybe have to go a little far from home to do the thing that you want to do. You might even need to change your name, change your style or your way of living.\u201d\nOr maybe Oklahoma City-based rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson might be a fit for Costello's big screen.\n\u201cI know, she's wonderful,\u201d Costello said. \u201cI was on the bill with her a couple of years ago at Newport Folk Festival and watched her set, standing on the side stage of Pete Seeger, which is not something everybody can say. It was a pretty great moment. We've sung \u2018Crying Time' together, which I recorded with her. What a great singer she is.\u201d\nA different festival set connected Costello with his \u201cDetour\u201d opening act, Larkin Poe. Rebecca Lovell and Megan Lovell front the roots rock act and met Costello at MerleFest several years ago. The North Carolina festival honors Doc and Merle Watson. Costello said the Atlanta- based sisters stole the show, and he hasn't stopped inviting them onstage since.\n\u201cThey're writing some really good songs, and we've ended up bringing some tunes into the light that I probably wouldn't have played if I was up there on my own,\u201d Costello said. \u201cThings that involve vocal harmony and a couple of songs, like one of the songs I wrote for the record of Bob Dylan lyrics ... and now we've been doing that song in the show. Every night we do it, people like just seem to love it, because it's got such an emotional feeling. It's good to have a show where there's something you can only hear in the theater, then you feel like you really got your money's worth, because you hear the tunes that you bought the ticket to hear, I'm going to play you those ones, and I'm going to play you a few you haven't heard. And they're good ones.\u201d\nCostello is also mixing in songs from an upcoming musical re-imagining of the 1957 film \u201cA Face in the Crowd.\u201d The movie starred Andy Griffith, Patricia Neal and Walter Matthau. Playwright Sarah Ruhl is teaming up with Costello on the adaptation.\n\u201cUsually you wait until opening night to play the songs but I took the decision with permission of my colleagues to debut the songs in my concerts, and again, the reaction that we've had night to night has been so encouraging. I share a couple of those songs with Rebecca and Megan. They've taken a bold step, stepping forward and singing brand-new songs with me. I would really honestly say don't miss their set. Make sure you get there to hear their show, too.\u201d\nPostby johnfoyle \u00bb Mon Oct 10, 2016 11:03 am\nWarning comment on the venue's f/book page -\nI haven't been here since the remodel.

The students were provided with the opportunity to watch Costello\u2019s sound check for his concert scheduled for later that evening as well as participate in a Q&A with the music legend, according to a news release.\nCostello discussed the evolution of his successful career in music, highlighting prominent moments from his musically-rich childhood to key turning points in the American and British music worlds overall. He stressed the importance of maintaining artistic ownership of one\u2019s work as well as strength and integrity in today\u2019s ever-evolving, very competitive music industry.\n\u201cThe number of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees that our students have been afforded the opportunity to learn from is truly unbelievable. I am continuously amazed with how these music giants give so freely of their time to our students,\u201d said Scott Booker, CEO and executive director of the ACM@UCO, in the release\n\u201cElvis Costello is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. I know our students gained invaluable insights from attending his sound check and Q&A \u2013 insights that will absolutely help them succeed in their careers in the music industry.\u201d\nThe ACM@UCO is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music and offers an industry-based, real-world educational experience for those interested in a career in today\u2019s music industry.

So who's to say he wouldn't be just as good at running our country?\nHe\u2019s already laid out a pretty solid political platform with his music: \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d pales in comparison to \u201c(What\u2019s So Funny \u2018Bout) Peace, Love, & Understanding?\u201d\nOver the course of his 40-year career, Costello has established himself as the original King of Cool. His lyrical subjects are broad and his genre ever-changing, with one critic going so far as to describe him as a \u201cpop encyclopedia.\u201d Which makes sense for a guy who throughout his career seems to have done it all, from having his first three albums appear on Rolling Stone\u2019s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time to making a cameo appearance in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.\nIt\u2019d be hard to find an opening act who does justice to a legend like Costello, but Larkin Poe managed to impress even with that baggage. Fronted by sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell, the Atlanta-based roots rock band ooze both pure talent and genuine artistry. With both girls decked out in black leather and ripped denim, they looked and sounded like a grittier-sounding Heart with some Janis Joplin thrown in.\nRebecca\u2019s gravel-coated vocals were beautifully impressive, breathing new life into blues standards like \u201cBlack Betty\u201d and winning over the crowd with the soulful \u201cWhen God Closes a Door.\u201d But while the set as a whole was on point, nothing could\u2019ve prepared me for their rock-infused cover of Cher\u2019s \u201cBang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down).\u201d\nAs a song notable for its somber, slow-burning melody, Larkin Poe\u2019s revved-up cover had me on the edge of my seat listening to Rebecca\u2019s whiskey-soaked vocal acrobatics. It was so good that you\u2019d think we were in the middle of a grungy dive bar watching the sisters tear up the stage instead of an elegant theatre in downtown Oklahoma City.\nIn between sets, Costello had a montage of still photos and music videos playing on a giant mock TV screen set at center-stage. Along with a few guitars set on display and some various signage to go with the stage design, it was a relatively stripped-down aesthetic for the solo tour.\nAnd when he finally took the stage, he was just as energetic, soulful, and wacky as the crowd always hoped he\u2019d be. Opening with \u201c(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes,\u201d Costello\u2019s set covered his 40-year career with aplomb, touching on all of his classics while introducing some deeper cuts into the mix.\nI could write all day about the beautiful music he unleashed onto the crowd. I cheered when he launched into \u201cAccidents Will Happen\u201d and almost cried when I heard those opening chords from \u201cAlison,\u201d which Costello sang off-mic during a delightfully tender moment. \u201c(What\u2019s So Funny \u2018bout) Peace, Love, & Understanding?\u201d ended the night on a high note during his third encore, but his fiery performance of \u201cBlame It On Cain\u201d with the girls of Larkin Poe was also a definite standout.\nBut while the music was obviously fantastic, the stories and wisecracks in between songs left just as big of an impression. We\u2019ve always know how talented Costello is as a performer, but the set Monday night also displayed just how much of a knack he has for comedy and storytelling.\nThe audience was buckling over while Costello talked about how \u201cView From The Edge of Town\u201d was inspired by his infatuation with a cab-driver on a drive to Mexico. He mocked the venue of the evening, telling the crowd to always fight for your dreams because one day \u201cYou might be able to play at the Chevy Bricktown Events Center!\u201d He even name-checked The Voice, mentioning that the reality singing competition has only proven that \u201cpop music is a blood sport.\u201d\nBut when you weren\u2019t laughing, you were simply in awe of the multi-faceted artist in front of you. Hearing Costello talk so passionately about collaborating with Chet Baker and Wanda Jackson, who was in attendance, was enough to make you teary-eyed. We\u2019re so used to placing our musical legends on a pedestal that we always forget they were just kids with nothing more than a dream and a guitar. But by combining humor and heart for an unforgettable evening, we got the chance to see Elvis Costello the person as well as the icon.\nhttp://city-sentinel.com/2016/10/elvis- ... o-concert/\nElvis Costello spins tales and serenades during OKC \u201cDetour\u201d solo concert\nby Darla Shelden on October 26, 2016 .\nBorn Declan Patrick MacManus, Elvis Costello performed mostly solo to a nearly full house at the Chevy Bricktown Events Center in Oklahoma City on October 10. The multi-genre musical raconteur told tales during the eclectic two hour \u201cDetour\u201d concert. With his lovable British accent and uniquely Elvis humor, he described his boyhood history, beginnings in the music biz and recent and future musical endeavors.\nThe tour follows the recent release of Costello\u2019s autobiography \u2018Unfaithful Music & Disappearing Ink.\u201d\nThe stage was a show in itself, featuring a large vintage television, radio signage, a plethora of guitars, several vintage microphones, a grand piano he attributed to his well known singer/songwriter wife Diana Krall, and a chair where he serenaded us with several crowd favorites.\nHis repertoire included materials for a forthcoming musical adaptation of \u201cA Face in the Crowd,\u201d which he previewed on Broadway in June. He has written 17 songs for the score, including selections he performed, A Face In The Crowd, Vitajex, Blood And Hot Sauce, and Burn The Paper Down To Ash.\nStage screen visuals opened with Costello\u2019s Monkey to Man music video, then flashed a montage of childhood photos, film noir movie posters, and other images that spun the details of his personal and musical history.\nFirst songs up were (The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes and Poison Moon, from his debut album My Aim is True, followed by Accidents Will Happen, Ascension Day, Every Day I Write The Book and Church Underground.\nHe interspersed his multi-stylistic rocker/serious virtuoso music with relaxed, funny, and sometimes serious conversation.\nHe said starting out in the business he sent out tapes of his recordings, noting, \u201cthey were very courteous \u2013 they sent them back to me.\u201d\nCostello\u2019s father, Ross McManus was a well known singer and trumpet player in the Joe Loss Orchestra. Elvis proclaimed that he\u2019s a sentimental type reminiscing that his parents met across the counter in a record shop.\nWith that charming accent, he talked casually about his childhood and early days as a performer making the show feel like we were just hanging out with an old friend. He recalled performing with his father in Blackpool only to slyly unplug the power since he was \u201cso badly out of tune.\u201d\nElvis recalled working with the late Allen Toussaint, one of his heroes, on \u201cWalking on Thin Ice\u201d by Yoko Ono. Costello told how Toussaint rebuilt his entire career after Katrina and mentioned their collaboration on the Grammy nominated The River in Reverse. During the show he sang Ascension Day from the album of the same name.\nMoving to the piano he said he \u201cborrowed from his wife,\u201d who was \u201chome with the kids.\u201d The couple has twin boys. Before performing the lovelorn tune Almost Blue, he said, \u201cI heard my wife play this song at the Royal Albert Hall before we were married and I knew I was in a lot of trouble.\u201d Other keyboard selections included Deep Dark Truthful Mirror, and Face in the Crowd.\nCostello has performed numerous times at Cain\u2019s Ballroom in Tulsa and once at the Oklahoma City Zoo Amphitheater.\nWhile on stage, he acknowledged two \u201cfriends\u201d from Oklahoma, Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Inductee Wanda Jackson, who was in the audience, and jazz great Chet Baker, who performed with him in London. Black and white photos of an earlier Miss Jackson and Mr. Baker were part of the nostalgic program.\nMentioning that Baker soulfully covered Almost Blue, Elvis said he \u201cregretted never taking up the trumpet.\u201d\nMoving to a comfy chair with a ukulele, \u2018Walking My Baby Back Home was dedicated to Ms. Krall. While there he did bittersweet guitar renditions of Side By Side and Ghost Train.\nGrabbing yet another guitar, Elvis cranked up the volume on Watching the Detectives, and although solo, he rocked the room like a full band. Moving to the edge of the stage he performed Alison, unplugged.\nNext a delightful vintage video played of Elvis\u2019 father (a mirror image) performing \u2018If I had a Hammer\u2019 a la Trini Lopez.\nReturning to the stage Costello was joined by Georgia Lovell sister duo, Larkin Poe. With Rebecca on mandolin and Megan on lap steel, they provided sweet harmonies to Costello\u2019s delivery of Nothing Clings Like Ivy, followed by Clown Strike, Burn the Paper Down to Ash (Rebecca singing lead), and Vitajex.\nUsing only guitars and a kick drum, Larkin Poe delivered strong blues-rock tunes with a riveting style of their own during the opening set. Glorious vocals and stellar performances were witnessed while accompanying Costello.\nElvis casually stated he was unofficially announcing his candidacy to an approving round of applause, before breaking into Blood and Hot Sauce.\nThe high-powered set finished off with That\u2019s Not The Part Of Him You\u2019re Leaving, Blame in on Cain. Pump It Up and I Want You.\nCostello, now 62, closed the show with a rousing version of (What\u2019s So Funny \u2018Bout) Peace Love and Understanding \u2013 sounding as good today as he did nearly forty years ago.",

        "raw_content": "Preserving the environment and protecting natural resources is one of three primary objectives of the Austrian Development Cooperation, the other two being combating poverty, and ensuring peace and human security. An intact environment with fertile soils, clean water and air is a fundamental prerequisite for a healthy life without hunger, as well as for every kind of economic progress. Natural disasters such as droughts, floods or landslides cause great harm and foremost where the environment is already degraded and can no longer provide a protective function.\nEnvironmental degradation and pollution especially harm the poorest and most vulnerable groups in developing countries who directly depend on the use of natural resources, and who lack resilience and adaptive capacity to climate related hazards and natural disasters. On average, their risk of suffering health impacts from negative environmental conditions is ten times higher than for Europeans. Limited or at times no access to natural resources such as water, land and minerals is the most common source of conflict in developing countries.\nIt is important to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in light of global climate change and to ensure that progress in sustainable development is not compromised by the effects of the latter. Any consequences of climate change have to be factored into all strategies, programmes and projects to promote the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions, take into account the expected impacts of climate change, and include respective adaptation measures. Effective environmental protection requires the full commitment of national institutions and the local population. The global dimension of environmental degradation calls for increased global cooperation. The basis for this is a series of Multilateral Environmental Agreements such as the three \u201cRio conventions\u201d on Biological Diversity (CBD), Climate Change (UNFCCC) and Combatting Desertification and Land Degradation (UNCCD).\nThe Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations include the protection of ecosystems such as forests, wetlands, drylands and mountain regions. In addition to supporting specific environment and climate change endeavours in partner countries, the Austrian Development Agency takes care to ensure that all financed activities are screened concerning their environmental impacts (i.e. on soil, sir, water, biodiversity and biosphere, greenhouse gas emissions and resilience towards climate change), in order to avoid any negative repercussions and impacts.\nRangeland management: transboundary landscapes\nLooking back on the evolution of ICIMOD\u2019s Rangeland Management Programme supported by ADA.\nBeekeeping and pollination in the Hindu Kush Himalaya region\nClimate change in Austrian Development Cooperation 154 KB | PDF\nStrategic Guideline on Environment & Development 365 KB | PDF\nGreen Economy 55 KB | PDF\nEx-post Impact Study Environment in Southeast Europe 2007-2013 - Final Report 850 KB | PDF\nEx-post Impact Study Environment in Southeast Europe 2007-2013 - Annexes 4 MB | PDF\nPoverty and Environment Partnership (PEP)\nEC Environment\nOECD DAC Environment\nSustainable Mountain Development \u2013 Mountain Farming is Family Farming\nSustainable Mountain Development \u2013 Tourism in Mountain Regions\nSustainable Mountain Development \u2013 Investments in Mountains",

He argued that Scotland's positive experience strongly supports the economic case, made by UK, German and French Climate Ministers, for an early transition to a low carbon economy to deliver jobs, boost economic recovery and provide energy security.\nThe briefing was attended by representatives of the international community in Edinburgh, including the Edinburgh Consular Corps. It took place ahead of a debate in the Scottish Parliament on 'A Low Carbon Economy for Scotland', which took place later the same afternoon.",

One, however, who will not be at 100% full strength is their star shortstop Carlos Correa. He's been battling back issues almost the entire year\u2014and spent six full weeks on the disabled list. Since his return to action on August 10th, he has not been the offensive force he once was. He did homer once in the ALDS against Tito's Tribe, but every swing brings pain. Being the post-season, he will suck it up and play\u2014said Correa, \"You\u2019re a competitor so every time you step on the field you play it off like everything is fine. But obviously you\u2019re hurting.\" Again, Houston has enough firepower in the rest of their line-up to more than compensate for a less-than-stellar Correa.

        "raw_content": "Florida Amendment 4: Felon voting rights\nProposed constitutional amendments explained\nTAMPA (FOX 13) - In Florida, 10 percent of adults are not allowed to vote. They have been convicted of a felony, and Florida is one of four states that does not restore voting rights once felons have served their sentences.\nThere's a major fight to change it: Amendment Four would restore the right to vote for felons like Coral Nichols.\nAs a member of the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, Nichols is going door to door, hoping to convince residents in South Tampa to support the measure.\n\"The more people I get to share my story with, the more people who look at me like, \u2018no way you are a convicted felon.\u2019\"\nConvicted in 2004, she served five years for embezzlement and will be on probation until next year. She then has to wait seven years before going to a clemency board that consists of the governor and his cabinet.\nThen, she is given a minute to make her case.\nThe board decides, yes or no: Vote, or not.\nAmendment Four would abolish the board and restore voting rights to those who have done their time, in a fell swoop.\n\"It is my voice,\" said Nichols. \"As a child, I learned my voice didn't matter. It led me down a road to do some things, making poor choices.\"\nOf late, the issue has gotten national attention.\n\"The worst state of all concerning this, and arguably everything else, is Florida,\" said comedian John Oliver - only half kidding - on his HBO show Last Week Tonight.\nHe pointed out the rules have roots in 1868, when the state's new constitution effectively banned ex-slaves from voting.\nGov. Charlie Crist reformed the process, restoring rights to 150,000 people.\nBut Gov. Rick Scott tightened rules again, only restoring rights to about 3,000 ex-felons, just 10 percent of the cases they've heard. And, they hear only 50 cases per quarter, with 1.6 million still banned.\n\"It is like someone finishing a triathlon, only for Scott to then say, 'No, it's a quadathon, now you have to learn Mandarin.' It doesn't really seem fair,\" joked Oliver.\nThe New York Times, NPR, and Fox News Channel have all covered the issue too, pointing out 1.6 million new people on the rolls could impact everything.\n\"Florida has been decided by fewer than 200,000 votes in three of the last five presidential races, so it's a meaningful number,\" Fox News host Tucker Carlson said on his show.\nTampa lawyer Richard Harrison, of Floridians for a Sensible Voting Rights Policy, says restoring rights in one shot is a mistake.\n\"It doesn't allow anyone to evaluate on an individualized case-by-case basis what someone has done or whether they have truly turned their lives around.\"\nThe issue also has a racial tinge, given a disproportionate number of those who are disenfranchised are African-American.\nThe governor says the current rules are about discerning who has actually reformed.\nNichols will knock on doors until the election. Real reform, she says, can't come until one has a stake in society.\n\"The problem comes when you continue to punish,\" she said. \"When we continue to punish, you don't allow someone to have a buy-in, then you increase the recidivism.\"\nAmendment Four would not impact rules that prohibit felons from owning guns or from serving on juries.\nThree-fifths of voters have to support the amendment for it to be enshrined in the Florida Constitution.",

        "raw_content": "About the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP)\nMission of the Fraternity\nThe Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (Fraternitas Sacerdotalis Sancti Petri in Latin) is a Clerical Society of Apostolic Life of Pontifical right, that is, a community of Roman Catholic priests who do not take religious vows, but who work together for a common mission in the world. The mission of the Fraternity is two-fold: first, the formation and sanctification of priests in the cadre of the traditional liturgy of the Roman rite, and secondly, the pastoral deployment of the priests in the service of the Church.\nThe spiritual formation of the priests in the Fraternity is based in the Sacred Tradition of the Church, and is founded upon four pillars:\nA deep love and devotion to the Blessed Eucharist in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.\nFaithful following of Christ the High Priest, source of all grace, our example and our inspiration.\nFilial love and true devotion to Mary the Mother of Priests and patroness of our seminary, Our Lady of Guadalupe.\nLoyalty and fidelity to, and dependence on, the Magisterium of the Church and the successor of Saint Peter, our Patron.\nThe Coat of Arms of the Fraternity\nThe two crossed keys principally evoke Saint Peter, Patron of our Fraternity. They also refer to the Holy See, to which we have been united with indefectible fidelity since our foundation. The absence of a tiara and the color of the background, however, clearly distinguish our arms from those of the Apostolic See. The blue background, a Marian color, reminds us that the FSSP is under the protection of the Mother of God (Constitutions #4). Lastly, the tears commemorate the difficult historical circumstances of our inception: \u201cQui seminant in lacrimis, in exsultatione metent\u201d (Ps 125, 5), as well as Saint Peter\u2019s triple assertion of love for the Lord (Jn 21, 15-17). This number may also evoke the three central aspects of our charism \u2013 hierarchical fidelity, doctrinal rectitude and the Gregorian liturgy.\nFounding of the Fraternity\nIn 1988, Pope John Paul II established the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter as a Clerical Society of Apostolic Life of Pontifical right, and approved its constitutions. The Fraternity was founded in response to the Holy Father\u2019s call to ecclesial unity and the new evangelization. Hence, our name denotes a filial love and loyalty to the Supreme Pontiff. The primary patron of the Fraternity from its inception was Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, later becoming Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.\nHistory of the FSSP in North America\nIn 1994, with the permission of Bishop Timlin, Father Josef Bisig announced the establishment of Our Lady of Guadalupe Seminary at Elmhurst. It was soon apparent that the growing number of seminarians mandated a separate building. In 1998, at the invitation of Bishop Fabian W. Bruskewitz, Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska, the decision was made to construct a seminary in Denton, and in the fall of 2000 the new seminary opened.\nSince its formation, the North American District has experienced a continuing increase in the establishment of parishes and apostolates. Under Father Devillers, first North American District Superior, and his successors, Frs. Paul Carr and George Gabet (the current District Superior), parishes and apostolates have been established in seventeen dioceses in the United States. In addition to the aforementioned dioceses they include, the Archdiocese of Denver, Colorado and the Dioceses of Rapid City (South Dakota), Little Rock (Arkansas), Lincoln and Omaha (Nebraska), Youngstown (Ohio), Paterson (New Jersey), Kansas City (Kansas), Atlanta (Georgia), Tulsa and Oklahoma City (Oklahoma), Corpus Christi and Dallas (Texas), Colorado Springs (Colorado), Indianapolis (Indiana), Sacramento (California) and Boise City (Idaho). All Saints Catholic Church became the newest parish to be served by the Fraternity, with priests taking over administrative and pastoral duties of the Parish in July 2013.\nIn 1995 the pastoral work of the District truly became \u201cNorth American\u201d with the invitation to the Fraternity by His Grace, Archbishop Marcel Gervais, Archbishop of Ottawa (Ontario), to minister in Canada. With the invitation of other members of the Canadian hierarchy the Fraternity has established parishes and apostolates in Ottawa and St. Catharines (Ontario), Calgary (Alberta) and Vancouver (British Columbia).\nThrough its first decade the number of District priests has also increased tremendously. From its original two members the District now has 75 priests engaged in pastoral or seminary work. This number continues to grow each year through ordinations.\nFor more information about the history, mission and apostolate of the FSSP, please visit the FSSP North America page and the FSSP International page.\nPriestly Fraternity of St. Peter in North America\nwww.fssp.com\nUsing the ancient liturgy as our well-spring, we form our priests in the traditions of the Church to serve at the altar and in the parish so that the fullness of Christ might enter the emptiness of the world.\nFSSP Supporters\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/fsspsupporters/\nA Facebook group of laymen and women to discuss and publicize events, news, and information related to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter.

        "raw_content": "road trip reflections.\nIt's been about a week & a half since I wrapped up my summer road trip, and although I haven't posted anything since Saturday, August 13, I haven't slowed down either. I'm in the middle of my second week at my alma mater First Stage Children's Theater, working as a Resource Teacher with students on the autism spectrum in their Next Steps program. I really wanted to spend some time reflecting on the six weeks I spent on the road before I write something up, so I've taken the past couple days to sit with my thoughts, and here's what I've come up with.\neverybody should travel by themselves.\nAnd I'm not talking about a three-day weekend to a nearby city. I'm talking about hopping in a car, or on a plane, and taking off to somewhere totally new. It totally awakens your senses to be constantly shifting from place to place. And anyone who loves a challenge (like me) will thrive off working out the logistics of a solo trip.\nBut especially if you're feeling how I felt at the beginning of July, super conscious that one chapter of your life is ending and a new chapter's about to begin, striking out alone is an incredible gift to yourself. Obviously, traveling solo afforded me a lot of alone time to reflect, meditate, and recalibrate my inner life. Navigating my way across almost 8,000 miles of pavement (and not pavement) has helped me largely avoid the existential dread of leaving academia & shift into a new, full-time New Yorker state of mind.\nAND you can see sights like these, which are from hands-down the most beautiful drive of the trip, up north on Highway 12 in Utah (shoutout to Tim for the killer recommendation!).\nsolo travel tips.\nThat being said, I got to figure out where I wanted to go, what I wanted to see, and how I wanted to structure my days all by myself. For me, I totally loved this aspect of my trip, and I think I found a nice balance between having a gameplan & going with the flow.\nI had quite a few days where the main activity was driving. When you're with someone else, you can always take turns. But when you're by yourself, it's easy to overdo the driving, especially when you're driving through some of the...more monotonous states. Whenever I was in doubt about my stamina in the driver's seat, I pulled over at the next rest stop to stretch and recharge, or I'd stop at a scenic overlook and snap a few pictures. Even if I paused for just 10 minutes, I found that it did wonders for my focus.\nThis might go without saying, but budget, budget, budget. Unless you have a trust fund, then I guess disregard this paragraph. I knew I would be making several big purchases, including new hiking shoes & the beautiful tattoo you see above. So when I was planning out expenses for the trip, I factored that into the overall budget, even though I figured I could spend $50 a day (and mostly succeeded at it!. But keep in mind that there will certainly be unplanned expenses (food you wanna try, museums you want to visit), and costs you might forget about (parking, entrance fees, laundry detergent). Plan beforehand, but be prepared to record & recalibrate your spending during. I managed to spend less than $5,000 for the entire trip, which was my goal!\nSpeaking of budget, I highly recommend using AirBNB, which is super convenient to use when you're traveling alone. An AirBNB stay costs less than a hotel by a long shot, and you can easily find places that will accommodate you in a private room. I had a 90% positive experience in terms of hosts, and I booked my stays ahead of time on their user-friendly app. Doing this not only gave me structure, but also forced me to take the plunge & strike the open road, in case I might get cold feet. Plus, when you stay with locals, you get much better recommendations than a guidebook or a website. Although if you're looking for online trip-planning resources, TripAdvisor & Yelp are definitely the way to go!\nLeave off the pressure to do everything everywhere. Because you won't. You can't. It's impossible. Unless you have an indefinite amount of travel time, make priorities of what you'd like to do and what you enjoy. For me, I loved museums & food. I didn't get to spend as much time as I liked everywhere, but I also wouldn't seen as much as I did. road trips are different than vacations, because you're going to a lot of different locations. So do what you can, and make a list of places you'd like to return to for a longer stay. Here's mine: Park City, Utah; Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; Colorado Rockies; Highway 12; Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland; and Mammoth Mountain.\nMost of all, I feel like I've healed my relationship with myself. As I write this, it sounds like total hippy-dippy BS, but hear me out.\nIf I'm being honest with myself, for the past 10+ years, my mind's been mostly focused on what's coming next. Middle school was about getting ready for high school, high school was about getting ready for college, college was about getting ready for life after college...and now that I'm here, post-college, I've come to realize that the majority of this time, I've been dutifully accomplishing what I think I should be doing, without taking much pause to consider what truly brings me joy. I've been volunteering, interning, learning, teaching, & working, but in pursuit of getting ready for the next phase of my life, I've been seriously neglecting myself.\nThankfully, this summer & largely due to my road trip, I've reconnected with things I love that I will bring back with me to NYC. I escaped into nature on a regular basis, which I've stopped doing since moving away from Central Park. I've realized that there are more enjoyable ways to learn about the world than sitting in a classroom & writing papers, including podcasts & museums. I've started reading for fun again (I seriously forgot what that felt like!).\nThere's been two books this summer that have totally rewired my brain. The first is this amazing book called The Gift, which was given to me by my boss & I highly recommend to any artist. Besides being a fascinating anthropological survey of gift-giving, the author Lewis Hyde makes a case for the fruits of any artist's labor to be treated as a gift rather than a commodity. A difficult but satisfying read!\nThe second book is called The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo, and it was given to me by my mother (not passive-aggressively at all!). Admittedly, my room has been a disaster zone for a while, probably because I'm a minor league hoarder. But the KonMari method of cleaning has actually changed the way I think about my space and my possessions. My parents are moving in the next couple of months, and for the past year, my mom has been only keeping objects, as per the KonMari method, that bring her JOY. I wish you could hear the way my mom's Midwestern accent pronounces this word.\nAt Big Sky Theater Workshop, the incomparable Stephanie DiMaggio (Program Director of BSTW & my former acting teacher) kept repeating this beautiful phrase throughout the week. It was said by Konstantin Stanislavsky towards the end of his life. When someone asked him for his advice for young artists, his reply was five words long:\n\"Lighter. Higher. Simpler. More joy.\"\nJoy. It's never been a priority in my life. But it's also never too late to start.\nI've got a little more than a week of vacation time before I head back to New York City. I'm looking forward to our students' presentation of their work tomorrow morning for their parents & friends. I'm looking forward to reconnecting with Wisconsin folks over the next couple of days. But most of all, I cannot WAIT to be free of responsibilities for a FULL WEEK. Although I do need to finish cleaning out my childhood bedroom. And I have a bunch of books to read. And applications-\nAll right, so I might not be slowing down any time soon. But I can say with certainty I'll be chugging along with more joy.\ntagged with RoadTrip2k16, Wisconsin, First Stage Children's Theater, Education",

        "title": "CVB, FCEDC up budget requests - News - The Garden City Telegram - Garden City, KS",
        "raw_content": "CVB, FCEDC up budget requests\nThe Finney County Commission on Monday heard a series of budget requests from local agencies for 2019, including a few that increased over last year.\nThe Finney County Convention and Visitors Bureau requested about $881,227 in budget authority, reflecting a significant increase in transient tax dollars coming into Finney County. The CVB\u2019s budget authority is derived exclusively from those tax dollars, as opposed to local general funds, and the request for 2019 marks an approximate increase of $74,000 from the $807,000 request for 2018.\nWhile the CVB projects roughly $950,000 to come into the county in 2019, the agency officially projected $800,000 for 2017 and 2018. Still, CVB Executive Director Roxanne Morgan said revenues have \u201cconsistently\u201d surpassed $900,000 in recent years, and excess revenues are used to supplement the budget of the following year.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a very, very good path that we\u2019re on,\u201d Morgan said.\nMorgan\u2019s budget application notes that the agency partnered in 73 events in 2017 that brought more than $4.8 million into Finney County. Overall, Morgan said during her report, visitors to Finney County spent $100 million in 2016, $11 million over 2015.\nTourism Economics, a third-party consulting agency contracted by both the CVB and the state for tourism analytics, usually produces results about a year and a half after the revenues come in, she said. She anticipates annual tourism revenues for 2017 going into 2018 to be equal to or greater than $100 million.\nAccording to Morgan, 973 jobs are supported by the local leisure and hospitality industry, and more than 1,200 jobs are supported indirectly.\n\u201cThe good thing about the Finney County Convention and Visitors Bureau is we cost nothing for the community,\u201d Morgan said. \u201cAll of the dollars that we receive are from the transient tax, so the investments that we make are 100 percent returned to the county.\u201d\nThus far in 2018, the county has received $346,120 in transient tax revenues, and $210,504 were collected by the county in revenues that exceeded the CVB\u2019s budget authority in 2017 and have not yet been allocated.\nMorgan noted that the CVB started 10 years ago with a budget of $286,000, reflecting a budget authority that has gradually tripled over the course of a decade with increased revenues.\nMorgan attributed much of the CVB\u2019s success to the community\u2019s growing role as a host for international sporting events, such as the Garden City Charity Classic, that have drawn participants from more than 30 countries to Garden City.\nAccording to Morgan, the CVB also has approximately $125,000 in \u201crainy day fund\u201d reserves, which the agency keeps tucked away in case transient tax revenues drastically decline during any given year.\nMeanwhile, the Finney County Economic Development Corp. is angling for more money to fund community projects intended to enhance the local quality of life, but their funds come directly from the four major taxing entities in Finney County: the City of Garden City, Finney County, Garden City Community College and the City of Holcomb.\nThis year, the FCEDC increased its funding requests to most of the local taxing agencies, raising its request to Finney County over last year by $15,000, from $150,000 for 2018 to $165,000 for 2019.\nFCEDC President and CEO Lona DuVall said increased funding would be necessary for the continued growth of Finney County. The FCEDC has been working to rectify housing and childcare shortages as part of a larger effort to stimulate workforce development and local quality of life.\n\u201cI think you are all aware that we\u2019ve been working very diligently on childcare, housing (and) workforce development,\u201d DuVall told county commissioners, adding that continued progress on those fronts would require a larger investment by local taxing entities.\n\u201cWe have to determine as residents that we\u2019re willing to pay for those, and quite honestly, we can\u2019t continue to grow at the rate we\u2019ve been growing without supporting these really basic needs that our residents have, and that in turn our employees have,\u201d DuVall said.\nAccording to the application materials submitted by the FCEDC, the agency has contributed to the generation of more than 4,500 jobs in Finney County since 2011 and a $113 million increase to the county\u2019s valuation.\nThe document indicates that FCEDC was directly responsible for more than $400 million of capital investment in Finney County in 2016 and 2017. The agency received $635,000 in funding from the four local taxing entities in that time, translating to a return on investment of about $630 for each dollar of investment in the agency.\nDuVall also suggested exploring the possibility of using sales tax to enhance the FCEDC\u2019s resources by repurposing the .15-cent sales tax dedicated to the creation and maintenance of HorseThief Reservoir after its scheduled sunset in 2021, a move that would require a community vote. The suggestion was first broached at the agency\u2019s annual meeting in January.\nShe said it would be important for the taxing entities to maintain their direct investments in addition to any prospective sales tax revenues, \u201clargely because we do show a direct impact on the taxable value at the county and each of the taxing entities there.\u201d\n\u201cWe think that the voters of Finney County (have) been very supportive of the HorseThief Reservoir obviously, and Finney County has contributed significant dollars to that project,\u201d DuVall said. \u201cI think if people were willing to do that for a facility that provides quality of life in a county outside of our own, I would like to think that they would be willing to provide that same level of support for quality of life impact in our own community.\u201d\nUnder the proposal, the Finney County and City of Garden City governments would collect the money and distribute it as needed for FCEDC quality of life improvements after public consideration of the expenditures.\nThree exceptions to that stipulation, according to the document, would be $100,000 distributed annually to the Finney County Childhood Early Learning Network, $50,000 distributed annually to the Great Plains MakerSpace to fund entrepreneurial activities, and $200,000 distributed annually to FCEDC for use in project and community development.\nThe FCEDC\u2019s budget request from each taxing entity for 2019 totals $360,000, including $165,000 from Finney County, $155,000 from the City of Garden City, $28,000 from the City of Holcomb and $15,000 from Garden City Community College. For 2017, the FCEDC requested $150,000, $145,000, $25,000 and $15,000 from each agency, respectively.\nThe application materials indicate that the $25,000 allocated for 2018 by the City of Holcomb remains unpaid. Holcomb\u2019s city government has called for lower contribution requests amid concerns that the amounts are disproportionate to the requests to Garden City on a per capita basis.\nAll budget requests were taken into advisement by the county commission and no other action was taken.",

        "raw_content": "N\u2019Djamena, 19 September 2018.\nExactly two years after the New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants was adopted, the Government of Chad \u2013 in partnership with the United Nations, donor countries and technical and financial partners \u2013 officially launched the CRRF in a national Symposium. The launch follows the formal announcement of its application in May this year and marks a milestone step towards achieving the objectives of comprehensive responses and the proposed global compact on refugees, to be adopted by the UN General Assembly later this year.\nThe launch was chaired by the Chadian Minister of Territorial Administration, Public Security and Local Governance, Mr. Ahmat Mahamat Bachir and was attended by six Province Governors, three provincial Secretary Generals, representatives of development, the UN Resident Coordinator and UN Agencies, the donor community, refugees from various locations in the country, NGOs and other members of civil society. The participation of regional government authorities is key to ensure that both refugees and the hosting communities benefit from emergency assistance and more long-term responses to meet their needs. Other participants included UN Agencies, the donor community, refugees from various locations in the country, and civil society.\nIn his inaugural remarks, Minister Ahmat Mahamat Bachir said: \u201cAs we work to include refugees in our national development systems \u2013 from integrating refugee schools into our public system to giving refugees access to health services \u2013 we welcome the CRRF and the opportunities it provides for our partners to support this process\u201d. With 450,000 refugees in Chad, representing more than 3% of Chad\u2019s population \u201c\u2026 the involvement of development and financial institutions can help ease the pressures on Chad and support greater self-reliance for refugees\u201d, he added.\nUNHCR\u2019s Country Representative in Chad, Mbili Ambaoumba, explained that comprehensive responses require more systematic efforts to merge humanitarian aid with development actions, and increased collaboration to deliver programmes that benefit both refugees and their hosts. \u201cThe CRRF is a new way of working where more actors come together to support the Government of Chad to increase durable solutions for refugees. This includes stronger socio-economic inclusion in their host communities, more resettlement options in third countries, and the creation of better conditions in countries of origin to enable refugees to return home safely,\u201d he said.\nThe United Nations Resident Coordinator, Stephen Tull, was encouraged by the broad engagement of multiple actors at the Symposium: \u201cThe CRRF is a tool to mobilise all stakeholders who can contribute to both humanitarian and development interventions that benefit host communities and refugees. Critically, it aligns with the National Development Plan, as well as the One UN approach, a new way of working that supports stronger collaboration among agencies.\u201d\nIn line with the pledges made by the Chadian Government at the UN Leaders\u2019 Summit on Refugees in 2016, Minister Ahmat Mahamat Bachir announced that the draft of a new asylum law is expected to be adopted before the end of the year, once it is presented to the Council of Minister and adopted by Parliament. A draft action plan to guide the application of the CRRF was endorsed at the launch and will be the subject of further discussions in the weeks to come.\nFor more information, view the Chad page of this Portal here and operational data here.\nPhoto: Minister Ahmat Mahamat Bachir addressing the audience at the National Symposiom. \u00a9UNHCR/ Nde Ndifonka",

This extraordinary conversion from coal is the latest in GPC\u2019s environmental sustainability efforts for reducing emissions in 2015.\n\u201cCleaner air is a commitment GPC made to the Muscatine community. With dedication and hard work, we are able to achieve our promise. Replacing coal with natural gas as a fuel source will substantially reduce levels of sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, nitrous oxide and lead,\u201d said Mick Durham, director of environmental services for GPC.\nAccording to Durham, using natural gas is projected to provide a 91 percent reduction in GPC boiler emissions. Included is a projected reduction of carbon monoxide by 61 percent, nitrous oxide reduced by 22 percent, particulate matter reduced by 91 percent, sulfur dioxide (SO2) reduced by 99.9 percent and lead will be reduced by 97 percent.\n\u201cWe have worked diligently and steadily to lower emissions through a number of projects and processes at GPC,\u201d said Janet Sichterman, GPC spokesperson. \u201cIn May, GPC announced that its new $83 million dryer house became fully operational. These two efforts for controlling emissions have put GPC well ahead of industry peers.\u201d\nWhile these projects are significant in scope and impact, GPC continues to identify ways to improve its impact on the environment.",

        "title": "The disappearing hyphen: Surnames getting simpler | Greatreporter",
        "raw_content": "The disappearing hyphen: Surnames getting simpler\nKate Appleton, 24 December 2007\nHyphenating a surname at marriage is no longer the powerful feminist statement it once was. The hyphen\u2019s moment has passed...\nHyphenation may be the most egalitarian approach to surnames, yet like so many other trends popularized in the \u201970s and \u201980s, it hasn\u2019t aged well.\nAs women saddled with hyphenates face their own naming decisions, the hyphen is revealing itself to be an impractical, one-generation solution.\nEmily Mitchell-Marell, 26, regularly fields questions about her name and the ultimate what-if scenario: marrying someone else with a hyphen. She has come close, as two of her ex-boyfriends have hyphenated surnames.\n\u201cI\u2019ve often thought about what I\u2019d do, not so much when I get married, but when I have kids,\u201d said Mitchell-Marell. \u201cFor the first time, in the last year or two, I\u2019ve thought about changing my name.\u201d\nIn September, Mitchell-Marell started a Facebook group called My Hyphenated Name Brings Me Both Pride and Confusion. \u201cI really like my last name and would use it for some purposes,\u201d said Mitchell-Marell, who works for the City University of New York\u2019s admissions department.\n\u201cBut I don\u2019t feel like I need to keep it to prove something-I\u2019m the same person, and I can have two names.\u201d\nThat pick-and-choose attitude has become more prevalent among women, and with that, the number of hyphenated surnames is dipping. No longer as powerful a feminist statement as it was a generation ago, the hyphenated surname is often seen as a bureaucratic inconvenience.\n\u201cHyphenation, in my experience, seems to be tapering off,\u201d said Danielle Tate, founder of MissNowMrs.com, which helps women with the legal process of altering surnames. Tate, who gave up the name Rowlett when she married in 2005, observed that many of her mother\u2019s friends have hyphenated last names, but none of hers do.\n\u201cIn talking to brides, I feel like there\u2019s almost a stigma with hyphenated last names. They\u2019re a mouthful and difficult in travel situations,\u201d Tate said. \u201cWe\u2019ve had the whole feminist movement-we\u2019re aware that we\u2019re equal.\u201d\nLeah Adams-Curtis hyphenated in 1982, when she was 21, as a way to follow the tradition of taking her husband\u2019s name without giving up her own. She agrees that there has been a cultural shift. \u201cWhen you ask college-age women today, they\u2019re like, \u2018Well, I\u2019ll just take his name,\u2019 and I don\u2019t think they have the same sense of identity tied to their names,\u201d she said.\nIn 2002, Adams-Curtis, an administrator at lllinois Central College, and colleagues at nearby Millikin University surveyed 197 students\u2019 perceptions of married women and men with hyphenated surnames. The results were generally positive: Women were seen as intellectually curious, good-natured, and career-oriented, and men as warm and committed to their marriages.\nJacob Grigolia-Rosenbaum, whose professional description (actor-director-fight choreographer) rivals his name, has come to terms with his hyphen. And at 29, he\u2019s mulling the possibility of replacing one of his names with his fiancee\u2019s surname to form a new hyphenate for their kids.\n\u201cIf you\u2019ve been carrying both sides of your family your whole life and you start mucking around with a hyphen, will the families be offended?\u201d he said.\nSuch complications help explain the disconnect between the perceptions and reality of hyphenation-and why so few choose it. Michele Hoffnung, director of women\u2019s studies at Connecticut\u2019s Quinnipiac University, researched name choices in New York Times wedding announcements from 1982 to 2002 and found that 21 percent kept their names, 7.1 percent used their maiden names professionally and their spouses\u2019 socially, and only 2.1 percent hyphenated.\nChoices at marriage tell only part of the story, as women may make revisions over time. Robbi Sherwin, a 50-year-old cantor and Jewish recording artist, hyphenated her name to Sherwin-Jordan when she married 26 years ago. After 14 years, as she puts it, she \u201ckept the husband but dropped the hyphen\u201d because it was too unwieldy.\nSherwin spared her daughter and son the hyphen, but other hyphenated offspring, like 24-year-old Alex Levy, formerly Frell-Levy, have taken matters into their own hands. Levy dropped the hyphen last summer before beginning law school at the University of Chicago.\n\u201cIt made sense professionally to decide what I was going to do for the rest of my life, and it\u2019s annoying\u201d to have to spell a hyphenated name, Levy said.\nHer decision was made easier, as Frell, her mother\u2019s maiden name, is already her middle name. Levy slipped in the hyphen in eighth grade. \u201cI\u2019m less bent on making a political statement than I was when I hyphenated,\u201d she said. \u201cLosing the hyphen just felt like a total epiphany about how my life would be so much easier.\u201d\nFor Dana Perry-Hunter, 29, hyphenating at 18 acknowledged both her stepfather, who raised her, and her biological father, who died when she was 3. As a child, she had been known among friends as Dana Hunter, but her legal name was her biological father\u2019s, Perry.\n\u201cI was very happy to hyphenate both names and put it to rest instead of being the same person with different names,\u201d Perry-Hunter said.\nYet while hyphenating simplified things for her personally, it created the type of bureaucratic hassles that are infamous among hyphenates. She was called for jury duty twice in one year and had to show up in court with a lawyer to prove that she had already served. It turned out she was listed in the computer system twice, with and without the hyphen.\nPerry-Hunter has a penchant for her monogram and plans to keep her hyphenated name when she marries but to give her children her as-yet-unchosen husband\u2019s last name. \u201cThen for purposes where we\u2019re together,\u201d said Perry-Hunter, \u201cI would be Mrs. Whoever.\u201d\nWomen keep their names after marriage for more than feminist reasons\nMore women expected to launch a new business in the UAE this year\nMen's room. Women's room. Where's the in-between room?",

        "raw_content": "San Francisco Bans Plastic Bags:\n180 Million a Year\nBack in the summer of 2005, I expressed my disappointment that San Francisco Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi's proposal to levy a $.17 tax on plastic shopping bags didn't go very far, \"Plastic Bag Tax: Good Enough for Dublin, Why Not San Francisco?\"\nA lot has happened to change the political environment in the past 21 months -- Hurricane Katrina, oil prices skyrocketing, ecosystems on the verge of collapse, and the awarding of an Oscar to a documentary about global warming.\nSuddenly environmental issues have taken center stage and a plastic bag tax doesn't seem so radical. Yesterday, Mirkarimi and all those who supported his efforts to tax plastic bags were vindicated, and rewarded with an even better result.\nThe city's Board of Supervisors approved groundbreaking legislation Tuesday to outlaw plastic checkout bags at large supermarkets in about six months and large chain pharmacies in about a year.\nThe ordinance, sponsored by Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, is the first such law in any city in the United States.\nUnder the legislation, which passed 10-1 in the first of two votes, large markets and pharmacies will have the option of using compostable bags made of corn starch or bags made of recyclable paper. San Francisco will join a number of countries, such as Ireland, that already have outlawed plastic bags or have levied a tax on them. Final passage of the legislation is expected at the board's next scheduled meeting, and the mayor is expected to sign it.\nOf course, the California Grocers Association isn't happy about it, behaving like most corporate entities, putting profits over people and the planet. (Funny, the CGA shows paper bags on its corporate website!)\n\"We're disappointed that the Board of Supervisors is going down this path,\" said Kristin Power, the association's vice president for government relations. \"It will frustrate recycling efforts and will increase both consumer and retailer costs. There's also a real concern about the availability and quality of compostable bags.\"\nHow much will costs increase? For retailers, the difference is about 2 to 8 cents between plastic bags and biodegradable bags. This law will instantaneoulsy increase demand for compostable bags, which will in turn create business opportunies for those who can solve any issues of availability or quality.\nThe real savings is for the environment and the planet. The City of San Francisco uses about 180 million plastic bags a year, which require 774,000 gallons of oil to produce. How much does that oil cost? A lot more than most would imagine.\nGetting 180 million plastic bags out of our ocean and landfills? Priceless.",

        "raw_content": "Being at the forefront of the medicinal use of cannabis, can be very frustrating. Rick Simpson healed his own cancer using cannabis extracts, which contained high levels of THC. After openly presenting his findings to those in authority in his homeland Canada he encountered nothing positive, but what he calls \"corruption and ignorance\". He then felt that those who control Canada, had no interest in helping the sick and suffering. Therefore Rick felt compelled to abandon his homeland and he now lives in Croatia. It is from this country that Rick continues his crusade. To have cannabis extracts recognised as being an effective treatment for diseases such as cancer, MS, arthritis and a vast array of other medical difficulties. Rick received the Koos Zwart Award in 2016 at cannabis liberation day in Amsterdam.\n,,By the time I had reached the age of 20, most of my friends were already using cannabis recreationally. Due to all the coughing involved with smoking the plant material and the endless propaganda I heard I sincerely thought this plant was dangerous. I thought my friends were actually harming themselves. It was only at the age of 35 that I started smoking cannabis. Up to that point I preferred to drink alcohol, but finally the realisation dawned on me that perhaps alcohol was doing much more damage than cannabis. So I gave up drinking in favor of using cannabis.\u2019\u2019\nRick holding the Koos Zwart award, meant for people fighting for acceptation and legalisation of cannabis. Koos Zwart was a cannabis icon in the Netherlands\n,,Many years later when I had a severe head injury I began to discover the medicinal virtues of this amazing plant. None of the drugs the doctors gave me did anything to improve my situation. I found they did more harm than good. By 1999 I realised that smoking cannabis was much more beneficial than anything the doctors had given him me. I still needed more sleep though. I then began to wonder what an extract from this plant could do, to ease my sleeping problems and help me deal with the other health issues caused by my head injury. When I discussed this with my doctors I could get discouraged. They claimed cannabis was still under study so I thought about it as a risk. I could not think of any reasons why doctors would refuse to help me. But my curiosity and desperateness won from my doctors advices and I started to ingest small amounts of the cannabis extract I prepared myself. Gradually I elevated the dose and it helped. I slept better, lost weight, got rid of the arthritis in my knee and felt better. Many people who sustain the kind of head injury had ended up taking their own life and if it wasn\u2019t for the cannabis oil I think that would have happened to me as well.\"\nRick on stage in at the cannabis liberation festival in Amsterdam\n,,By 2003 I got diagnosed with skin cancer on three different areas of his body. My doctor was especially worried about one of the spots and removed that surgically. When this wound got infected I lost faith in the surgery method and simply applied a small amount of the cannabis extract to the other two areas. When I removed the bandages a couple of days later I found both areas had completely healed. Within 7 weeks the cancer which had been surgically removed returned so I applied the extract and a bandage again and four days later this area was also completely healed.\"\nRick pointing out the place where the lesion in his neck used to be.\n,,I then went to my doctor\u2019s office to obtain the pathology report to prove that I had been suffering from a form of skin cancer. After finding out what was used to heal the three areas, the doctor refused to even talk to me about this. I then lost all trust in the medical system. After supplying these extracts to many others who were often suffering with severe medical problems, he has seen with his own eyes and even documented, the medical miracles these extracts could achieve. But it was not only the doctors that wouldn\u2019t do anything. Canadian Politicians, people form the UN, the cancer society, nobody would listen to what I told them. Our world is being controlled by rich psychopaths who only concern themselves with making huge profits and they care nothing about what is best for mankind.\u2019\u2019\nRick with his wife Danijela.\nFor the past four years they continued Rick's battle towards acceptation of cannabis as a natural medicine. Together, they visited many different countries all around the world, where they gave lectures, held seminars, and informing the public about this subject through interviews, social networks and various other activities.\nRecently, they established their own publishing company Simpson RamaDur. Rick's books are being translated into many different languages with one goal - to spread the knowledge about the healing abilities of cannabis oil.\nFind out more about Rick, his battle and the oil at phoenixtears.ca",

        "raw_content": "This is a shorter letter than the First Thessalonian Epistle, and it is said to have been written very shortly after the first one. Some have made the claim that the Apostle Paul wrote this letter to correct that which he set forth in the first epistle, I Thessalonians 4:13-17. However if one reads this epistle, he soon discovers that such is not the case; and to even assume such is to deny the inspiration of the apostle's writings. All Christians believe that the Holy Ghost inspired the apostles to write all the letters to the various churches, and that the Holy Ghost made no mistakes to need correction. An erroneous translation of a phrase in Chapter II, verse 2, may be the cause of some thinking such.\n(Verses 1 and 2) \"Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.\"\nThus Paul identifies himself and two of his companions, Silvanus and Timotheus, the latter of which we know as Timothy; and he addresses the \"church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.\" Then, as he usually does, he prays that God our Father and our Lord Christ Jesus may continue to bless this church with grace and peace.\n(Verses 3 through 6) \"We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; so that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;\"\nPaul gives a wonderful testimonial of the great faith and fervent love of the Thessalonians, saying that it is proper that he always thank God for them, because of the growing of their faith in God, and the abounding of their love for one another. He even finds himself boasting to other churches concerning the patience and faith of these brethren under the persecutions and tribulations that are upon them. His comfort to them is that this, their suffering such is a manifest, or clearly evident, token of God's righteous judgment, and shows that they are \"counted worthy of the kingdom of God .\" The suffering surely is not pleasant, but it is a great comfort in the assurance it gives that we are accepted of God. Paul's motto, in regard to himself and all Christians, is given in II Timothy 3:12, \"Yea, and all who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution\". Here he says, \"Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you,\" signifying that this not only shows that we are accepted with God, but also opens the door for Him to exercise His righteousness in inflicting judgment upon those who persecute us. It is a righteous thing for Him to do so. But the only righteous course for us to pursue is to endure as patiently as possible whatever persecutions are sent upon us, looking by faith unto Him, and leaving all judgment and recompense for such in His hands, for He will not fail.\n(Verses 7 through 10) \"And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power; when He shall come to be glorified in His saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.\"\nThis account should be contrasted very carefully against that given in I Thessalonians 4:13-17. In such a study it becomes evident that they are two separate and distinct events connected with the return of our Lord. Many have a problem understanding what the scriptures tell us about His return because they start with a false premise. They think that when He comes \"as the lightning,\" all the graves, of both righteous and wicked, will burst, the dead shall all arise at once in a confused multitude, and will have to be separated and judged, one rewarded and another condemned, in the same session of court. This just simply is not the case, as described by our Lord Himself, and the Apostle Paul. Our Lord, speaking, in John 5:28-29, very distinctly separates the resurrection of the righteous, \"the resurrection of life,\" from that of the wicked, \"the resurrection of damnation.\" In Matthew 24:30-31, He says, \"And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.\" Mark 13:26-27 gives almost identical wording. Paul, in I Thessalonians 4:16-17, says, \"For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.\" In these accounts the Lord descends from heaven in the clouds of glory, and from His position \"in the air\" sends His angels to gather His elect, both living and dead, from the entire earth, \"from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.\" Thus are they gathered together in the clouds to \"meet the Lord in the air.\" This is sufficient coverage of this event of His coming for the moment. What Paul is at this point considering is a different event of His coming, for in the one we have just considered there is no mention of the wicked or of their fate. Here, however, the apostle tells these persecuted brethren that they are to \"rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.\" Although that will be a time of terrible vengeance upon the wicked, all who trust in our Lord Jesus the Christ will be able to rest in perfect safety. As the destroying angel said to Lot , (Genesis 19:22 ,) \"Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither.\" So it has ever been, and will be; God's elect must be in a place of safety before He will release His awful judgments upon the wicked. Then will He come \"with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.\" These unbelievers will then be punished with eternal ruin, forever shut off from the presence of our Lord and the glory of His power. This will all take place on that day, when our Lord comes \"to be glorified in His saints, and to be admired [wondered at] in all them that believe.\" That is, when He shall demonstrate to them, in a manner and measure they have never before seen, His wonderful power and might in overcoming and punishing His enemies. Since all believers will be given the privilege of seeing and marveling at this great work, Paul comforts these brethren by saying, \"because our testimony among you was believed\", thus assuring them that on that day they will have nothing to fear, but will rejoice in the glory of Jesus Christ.\n(Verses 11 and 12) \"Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of His calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of His goodness, and the work of faith with power: that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.\"\nNotice that Paul does not pray that the burden of persecution and tribulation be lifted from these brethren, but that they be accounted worthy of this calling, which, according to verse 5, clearly will continue the persecution. Then his prayer is that God will fulfill \"all the good pleasure of His goodness, and the work of faith with power.\" This will then result in the name of our Lord Jesus the Christ being glorified in them, and they will be glorified in Him. All of this is to be \"according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.\"\n(Verses 1 and 2) \"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him, that ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ [the Lord] is at hand.\"\nBefore commenting on any other part of this passage, let us look at what is here translated, \"the day of Christ.\" This, in Greek, would have to be, \"he hemera Xristou,\" whereas the actual Greek text is \"he hemera tou kuriou,\" and can only be \"the day of the Lord;\" and this expression, in all seventeen places where it occurs in scripture, indicates a time of the outpouring of the judgment of God upon wicked men, although some of those judgments are temporal. In this instance it can mean nothing but that event covered in verses 7 through 10 of the preceding chapter, Paul taught the Thessalonians while he was among them, and repeated that teaching in I Thessalonians 4:13-17, that Jesus would deliver them from the wrath and judgment of that day. Here we find them much disturbed by some false teachers, and perhaps even a letter someone has forged in the name of the Apostle Paul, to the effect that the rapture is already past, and the persecutions and tribulations they are suffering, are those of the judgments following it. If this were true their hope in Christ would be totally worthless; they would still be left in their sins, to face the awful judgment of God. So Paul says, to them, \"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto Him_ _ _.\" The coming here mentioned is that in which we will be \"caught up together in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air;\" and this he uses as the basis for his plea to them, thus assuring them that they have not been passed by; and His coming is still in the future. So by it he begs them to \"be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled.\" They have no reason to worry: our Lord has not forgotten us. He then tells them that no matter what means someone may use to try to convince them of such, \"neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us,\" they are not to be troubled or uneasy in their minds about this; it just is not so. Under the stress of heavy persecution and tribulation some may become so depressed that a Satanic spirit may whisper to them that they have been by-passed and left to the time of tribulation and judgment. Or, someone may come along preaching this. And it may even be that someone will claim to have a letter from Paul to this effect. If any, or all, of these means are used, Paul begs them to give no heed to such. This, which they are experiencing, is not \"the day of the Lord,\" the great day of tribulation.\n(Verses 3 through 5) \"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God, sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was with you, I told you these things?\"\nA comparison of what the apostle says here and that which he said in I Thessalonians 4:13-17 will show a very clear point of difference between the two events, which is never specifically mentioned. There his repetitive use of the phrase, \"we which are alive and remain\" signifies clearly that there is no known great event which must come to pass before the coming of our Lord to gather His people together unto Himself. But, before He comes to mete out judgment to the wicked, there are two things which must take place. One is that there must be a falling away. Often, because of coldness in the churches, and the moral decay of the world, people will talk of a great falling away that seems to be taking place now. But this is nothing when compared to that which will take place after our Lord lifts His saints out of this world, and gathers them unto Himself. Then will be such a falling away as will prepare the way for the second necessary event, the introduction and revelation of \"the man of sin,\" the \"antichrist,\" and this will literally take place. That \"man of sin\" will arise to such a position of power in the world, that he will set himself up in the temple of God , declare to the world that he is God, and forbid the worship of any one or any thing except himself. Paul reminds these brethren thus: \"Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?\" This is no new message to them, but only a reminder of what he has already taught.\n(Verses 6 through 10) \"And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only He Who now letteth will let, until He be taken out of the way. And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: even him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all the deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.\"\nPaul reminds these brethren that they are not in darkness and ignorance, but they know what is keeping that man of sin from being revealed until his time, that is, the time appointed of God. Through the centuries, many have fallen into the trap of \"finger pointing\", because they either did not realize, or had forgotten that the \"antichrist\" has a time, appointed of God, to be revealed. And until that time no man knows who he is, just as none of our Lord's disciples knew who would betray Him until the deed was done. Paul says that \"the mystery of iniquity\" is already at work, even in his day; but, until taken out of the way, the Holy Ghost hinders, and will hinder, his revelation. This is an act of mercy toward the children of God in the world. Were he permitted to be revealed while they are here, their tribulations would be multiplied many fold. Until the rapture of the saints, the Holy Ghost will stand in the way of the revelation of \"the man of sin.\" After the rapture He will be taken \"out of the way,\" not \"out of the world,\" but He will no longer stand in the way of the revelation of this monster. At that time he will be allowed to rise to power; and when he does, he will exercise miraculous powers performing \"signs and lying wonders,\" not just pretended miracles, as some have said, but very real ones, albeit \"lying\" ones because the testimony they will give is a lie. They will be used by the man of sin, to prove to the world that he is God, which, of course, is a lie. Yet these signs and wonders will have all the \"deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved.\" Only those to whom God in His grace has given the love of the truth shall be saved.\n(Verses 11 and 12) \"And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.\"\nPaul's phrase, \"And for this cause,\" can only refer back to that which he has already said, \"because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved.\" So, because they have no love for the truth, \"God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.\" This is such a straightforward statement that it leaves no necessity for explanation. This is just simply something God is going to do, with no \"ifs,\" \"ands,\" or \"buts\" about it. Then, Why will He do it? The answer is just as clear: \"That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.\"\n(Verses 13 through 15) \"But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren, beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth; whereunto He called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.\"\nHere the apostle declares that he is constantly forced to give thanks for these brethren who are beloved of God, because God, for the love He has for them, did, from the beginning, choose them \"to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.\" It is not something which He set before them, and said, \"Take it, or leave it,\" as many today try to preach. No. He made choice of them to that end. In addition, Paul says, \"whereunto He called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.\" Two things are to be said about the gospel by which God called the Thessalonians. The first is, this is not Paul's gospel, in the sense that he is the owner, the source, or the subject thereof, but only in that God has entrusted him with the preaching of it. The other is, that Paul uses this word in two different ways, or with two different meanings. He sometimes uses it in reference to the preached word, the testimony of the gospel; and at other times his meaning is the substance of the gospel, what Christ has done, is doing, and has promised to do. The latter is apparently his meaning at this point, because, although the preached word does call to obedience, it can only be effective after, by the operation of the Holy Ghost, one has been made partaker of the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus the Christ. So it is through the work wrought by our Lord, and applied to our hearts by His Holy Spirit, that we are called \"to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.\" Nevertheless, because we are thus called, the apostle instructs us to \"stand fast, and hold the traditions, which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.\" That is, Do not be disturbed, or moved by any doctrine contrary to this.\n(Verses 16 and 17) \"Now our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God, even our Father, Which hath loved us, and hath given us an everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.\"\nIt is to be noted that, though Paul is well aware of our Lord's declaration that He and the Father are One, he usually separates Them, as he does here, and prays that They will in unison do that for which he prays; in this instance, \"comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.\" The Christian is to be comforted, but he also is to be firmly grounded, both in good words and good deeds; and He Who has given us everlasting consolation and good confidence in Him through His grace, is certainly able to do this for us also.\n(Verses 1 through 5) \"Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. But the Lord is faithful, Who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you. And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into patient waiting for Christ.\"\nFirst Paul makes a final request that these brethren pray for him; and in that request he asks that they pray that he be delivered from \"unreasonable and wicked men,\" which some may consider as a selfish request; but notice what he says before asking this. \"_ _ _That the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you.\" His reason for desiring deliverance from unreasonable and wicked men is that the word of the Lord may not be hindered in its spread to others, where it will be glorified as it has been among the Thessalonians. Since all men do not have faith, if he falls into the hands of unreasonable and wicked men, the spread of the gospel message will be hindered. He then comforts them with the declaration that God is faithful; they can depend upon Him to establish them, and to keep them from evil. His next statement is clearly a reference to that which he has said in Chapter II, verses 1 and 2. Remember that they were much disturbed in mind, thinking that, perhaps, the Lord had already come, and they had been passed by. Now Paul says, \"We have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we commanded you. And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into patient waiting for Christ.\" Notice that his confidence is in the Lord, that these brethren are doing, and will do, those things he has commanded them. That is, the Lord will cause them to do this. And as they do so, the Lord will also direct their hearts, not only into the love of God, but also \"into patient waiting for Christ,\" thus assuring them that the Lord has not passed them by, but will at the appointed time come, and gather them, together with all His saints, unto Himself.\n(Verses 6 through 9) \"Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us. For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; neither did we eat any man's bread for naught; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.\"\nThere is a great difference between the manner in which Paul addressed the Thessalonians in verse 6 of this passage and in Chapter II, verse 1. There he was concerned with comforting them even though he, at the same time, was correcting an idea that someone had led them into, while here his concern is that they recognize the authority by which this is commanded. So here \"in the name of,\" or by the authority of, the Lord Christ Jesus he commands, \"withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.\" There have been many arguments about the apostle's meaning in the expression, \"withdraw yourselves.\" Some say that he means that the church should excommunicate such an one, while others argue that we should withdraw ourselves, as individuals, from him, by just not keeping company with him. In the light of what Paul says in verses 14 and 15 of this chapter, it seems that the latter understanding is more in keeping with his intent, for there he says, \"And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed. Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.\" Another point in the apostle's statement (verse 6) which causes some a slight alarm is the word, \"tradition.\" This is a translation of the Greek word, \"paradosis,\" which, though it can mean \"tradition,\" is better understood as \"precept,\" or \"instruction,\" both of which are also acceptable meanings of this word. Those who will not conduct themselves according to the instruction given by the apostle not only in word, but also by example, are to be noted, or marked; and we are to have no company with them until they are \"ashamed,\" that is, until they have come to repentance. Now the apostle reminds these brethren that they know his manner of living among them, that it was not disorderly. In short, he never used the motto, which seems so popular with some today, \"Do not as I do; but do as I say.\" He constantly declares his determination to be a living example of Christian service, and says, \"Follow me.\" Then he reminds them that he was no expense to them, but worked, even under extreme hardship, \"travail,\" night and day to support himself that he might not be \"chargeable\" to any of them. Verse 9 is one which many who claim to be gospel ministers today, either never knew, or have forgotten, \"Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ENSAMPLE UNTO YOU TO FOLLOW US. The word, \"power,\" in this sentence is, of course, to be understood as \"authority.\" As an apostle of our Lord, it was certainly within the scope of his authority to require the church to support him, but as an example for us to follow, he supported himself.\n(Verses 10 through 13) \"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.\"\nIn this modern age there is much hue and cry about \"welfare;\" and some think that it is our \"Christian duty\" to take care of every person who has need of any thing, no matter who he is, or how he came to be in need. This sounds wonderful, and some say that to refuse to do this is totally non-Christian. Certainly Paul commands us, \"But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.\" Unquestionably this means that we are not to grow weary, and give up on helping those who cannot help themselves. Nevertheless this is only the closing verse of the passage quoted above. What does he say before this? (Verse 10) \"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.\" Certainly those who CAN NOT WORK should, and must, be taken care of; but just as surely, those who WILL NOT WORK must be cut off. They are not to eat at the expense of others. He then says that he has heard that there are some among the Thessalonians that walk disorderly; and the only points of disorder that he mentions are that they work \"not at all, but are busybodies.\" Some may argue that one will not necessarily be a busybody, just because he is not working. This MAY be true of one who CAN NOT WORK, but it will never be found so of one who WILL NOT WORK. He then says, \"Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.\" This is a very serious commandment, given not just by the authority of the Apostle Paul, but by the authority of our Lord Jesus the Christ. This is why he gives the instructions of verses 14 and 15, which we have already discussed.\n(Verses 16 through 18) \"Now the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all. The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.\"\nThus Paul concludes this letter to the Thessalonians, praying that our Lord Jesus the Christ, Who is the Lord of peace, will give them peace \"always by all means,\" and that His grace will continue with them. He declares also that his salutation, written by his own hand, marks this epistle as authentic, and not a forgery. Apparently he had someone else do the writing of the body of the letter as he dictated it.",

        "raw_content": "Helping Kids and Their Families Live Healthy\nIn 2005, Armstrong School District administrators were surprised to find out that according to national standards almost 35% of children in the district were overweight or obese. As a result of this finding, several organizations in Armstrong County came together to develop HEALTHY Armstrong, a collaborative that focuses on improving the health and well-being of children and their families. HEALTHY stands for Healthy Eating Active Lifestyles Together Helping Youth. Key stakeholders include ACMH Hospital, ACMH Hospital Foundation, Armstrong School District, UPMC Health Plan, Children's Community Pediatrics (Armstrong), and the County of Armstrong.\n\"The coordination of key community stakeholders has helped us make gradual changes that assist children and their families in making healthier food choices and increasing their physical activity levels,\" says Harold Altman, MD, Chief Medical Officer of ACMH Hospital. Dr. Altman, a pediatrician, is also a member of HEALTHY Armstrong's Executive Council.\nThe Executive Council includes one representative from each key partner organization and directs the efforts of the coalition. The Steering Committee, which includes the project director, school program coordinator, and representatives from all partner/community organizations, meets monthly to address key program details and to make sure their decisions follow the direction set by the Executive Council.\nArmstrong School District has made gradual healthy changes to the food choices available in district schools. Changes include removing deep fryers from school cafeteria kitchens and removing soda pop from vending machines in student areas. School-based programs include daily morning exercises and after-school activities that include parents. The district incorporates the National Institutes of Health's We Can!TM program, an easy-to-use wellness program for parents and teachers.\nA community-wide campaign, Healthy Recipe of the Week, has engaged families throughout Armstrong County by helping residents understand the importance of proper food choices, nutritional content, and portion control. At several grocery stores throughout the county, weekly recipes are featured in a prominent grocery display and provided to residents so they have easy access to healthy food choices.\n\"This event helps parents make changes to their family diet, which is important to the overall mission of the HEALTHY Armstrong collaborative,\" explains Michael Culyba, M.D., Vice President, Medical Affairs, at UPMC Health Plan, and an Executive Council member.\nIn July 2009, HEALTHY Armstrong gained national recognition when Congresswoman Kathy Dahlkemper (PA-3) introduced legislation \u2014 Healthy Communities Act of 2009 \u2014 that is modeled after the HEALTHY Armstrong collaborative. Through public-private partnerships, this legislation will offer grants to community organizations that develop programs to help residents live a healthier lifestyle.\nFor more information about HEALTHY Armstrong , contact Kay Owen, Project Director, at (724) 543-8580 or owenk@acmh.org or visit www.healthyarmstrong.com.",

Equally impressive is how the history of printing is depicted by the first Arabic letters that had been printed in Europe during the same period. Some small-format copies of the Koran, which were printed by means of photolithography at the beginning of the 20th century, as well as several printed body text fonts round out the history of printing with Arabic letters.\nThe most precious pieces of the Islam Section are some parchment pages with Kufic inscriptions and an earthenware bowl decorated with an inscription band from the early days of Islam.\nIllustrated Manuscripts and some handwritten single pages of the 9th to 20th centuries show the traditional book art and art of writing in Arabic script. Some other important examples of the art of writing can be seen on several articles of daily use.",

A good portion of the bribes were allegedly paid during the period when U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney was CEO of Halliburton.\nNigeria's lead investigator in the case, Chudi Offodile, complained that Halliburton's failure to cooperate in the investigation could be interpreted as an \"admission of guilt,\" the Times reported. He said Halliburton's partnership, known as TSKJ, refused to answer detailed questions during a public hearing regarding its relationship with a Spanish company, known as Tri-Star, which apparently funneled bribes to Nigerian officials on behalf of TSKJ. Frustrated by the lack of cooperation, Offodile abruptly called off the hearing.\nAccording to Nigeria's online newspaper, ThisDayOnline.com, most of the TSKJ witnesses who testified before Nigeria's House of Representatives \"did not want to disclose the information they were asked to give because other investigations are going on elsewhere on the matter.\"\nThe United States, France and the United Kingdom are conducting separate criminal investigations.\nThisDayOnline said a \"foreigner who claims to be a lawyer for Halliburton\" had testified during the hearing, but had said he did \"not speak for the company.\" The information he provided was not helpful, say Nigeria's investigators.\nNigeria says TSKJ hired Spanish-based Tri-Star Co., run by London lawyer Jeffrey Tesler, to pay bribes of $60 million in 1995, $37.5 million in 1999, $51 million in 2001 and $23 million in 2002, according to ThisDayOnline.com. All of TSKJ's witnesses at the hearing say they were not aware of these payments. The witnesses refused to disclose who hired Tri-Star and for what reasons.\nThisDayOnline.com reported that during the hearing, Nigeria's former Minister of Petroleum, Dan Etete, who has been implicated in accepting bribes from TSKJ, stated through his lawyer that the contracts awarded to TSKJ were awarded behind his back. The former minister denied accepting bribes. Another former Nigerian official, Alhaji M.D. Yusufu, admitted that he collected money from TSKJ's agent, Jeffrey Tesler, but claimed that the money was a loan and not a bribe.\nInterim report of the Nigerian government\nTHE CHENEY FACTOR; Political CEO proves risky business for Halliburton\nNigerian LNG to stay with contractor despite probe\nNigeria bans Halliburton from new contracts on safety concerns\nHouston Chronicle: Frustration hits Nigerian panel",

More than one hundred travelers enjoyed this magical experience.\nIt was a great honor to be specifically invited back to sing at the Cultural Olympiad in China!

        "raw_content": "Earning the Right to be Lead\nI have a good friend who recently left home for his first spring training as a professional baseball player. After honing his craft through Little League and High School competition, he was recruited by a large university, and did so well he was drafted and signed to a professional contract.\nI also know several young men who have acquired and demonstrated sufficient skills and aptitudes to merit major corporations offering them employment contracts.\nIn one sense, all these young men are in the same situation. They are all professionals, asked to use their skills for the good of the organization, while being compensated for their efforts.\nBut, there is one major difference: The baseball player knows he must start at the bottom, work harder than most of his teammates, and demonstrate consistent, long-term progress in the skills baseball demands if he wants to gain respectability and move up. He realizes he is a beginner despite previous achievements. He understands there are many who are more skilled than he, and he values their coaching and modeling. He is clear on the fact that he doesn\u2019t know all he needs to know and can\u2019t do all he needs to do in order to make it to the Major Leagues. At least, not yet.\nHe is also clear on what he has no right to think or do. He knows he can\u2019t go around sulking that, after two months, he hasn\u2019t been asked by the Major League coaches to offer his insights, take his spot on the field, and generally be treated as highly valuable. Simply put, he must be humble enough to learn, focused enough to work extremely hard, and respectful enough to gain the added value of having real relationships with those who can help him improve.\nMost of all, he must realize the true level of his value to the organization is, at this point, minimal. The reason? It\u2019s simple. He hasn\u2019t done anything yet. In baseball, accomplishment always precedes recognition and reward. Just because the minor leaguers wear the same uniform and are paid to play doesn\u2019t mean their stock is equal to that of the Major Leaguers.\nIf only the same thing were true in other arenas of society. Society is witnessing the massive influx of a generation pervasively nourished on their own self-worth. They have bought into the pernicious and erroneous ethical perspective that being alive and human makes them equal to those who have lived more, learned more, done more, and earned the right to speak, act, and lead. They wear their entitlement on their sleeves.\nSadly, in the world of baseball, the failure rate is pretty high. It is usually agreed that only 10% of all those signed to a minor league contract will play at least one game at the Major League level. But apparently, the fact that 90% never make it motivates the minor leaguers to give it their all, and then some. It adjusts their arrogance downward, and propels them to take advantage of every practice, game, coach, and manager they can find. It also means they enter the fray understanding they have a long way to go.\nAnd that\u2019s where many entering the business world show their ignorance. Rather than come in knowing they have a long way to go, they believe they\u2019ve already arrived. They come on the scene wearing an inflated sense of their own importance, their own abilities, and their own value. Even worse, they come armed with entitled expectations, and a great storehouse of indignation just ready to burst forth if they feel under-valued, under-recognized, and under-utilized.\nWe need to get back to the tried and true concept that value follows achievement, just as insight and ability are honed through experience. This doesn\u2019t mean newcomers don\u2019t have a place. Just as baseball drafts a new crop of hopefuls yearly, so also business recognizes the value of new employees whose potential may actually be greater than that of previous generations. But potential is of little value until it is fulfilled in maturity, experience, and accomplishment.\nSo, if you at the beginning of your career, learn from the professionals in the baseball world. Be honest about your value and strive to learn from those more experienced. Work hard to improve and succeed at your level. Take your job seriously but never yourself. Be humble, teachable, and honest about your abilities, and prize achievement above status. If you do those things consistently, those with power to promote will certainly take notice.\n\u2190 Hey, Be A Man!God Wins! \u2192",

A special Holocaust trip took college students, Veterans, and Holocaust survivors to Germany, Poland, Austria, the Slovak Republic, and the Czech Republic. Other trips have included China, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Austria specializing in the Chilly Warfare; Korea; and, most lately, Vietnam.\nAgain, this can be carried to an unhealthy extreme. However one of the nice complaints about college students is teachers who act as if the students do not have anything else happening of their lives, which leads them to conclude that we don\u2019t have anything happening in our own lives (as a result of we are robots who never go away the varsity building). Do your students know what you care about? Do you prefer to make music? Do you like to paint water lilies? Do you gather ceramic frogs? It does not matter- let your college students know that you\u2019ve a passion in life other than teaching (as a result of reside people have greater than two dimensions, so to go for a live human, it\u2019s essential to have at the least three dimensions as nicely).\nAs I identified final time, there has by no means been, to my knowledge, any evaluation of whether the PARCC does a better job measuring things we care about in comparison with the NJASK. So, whereas the PARCC has plenty of supporters, we actually do not know if it\u2019s any higher than the previous check at detecting \u201cgood\u201d educational practices, assuming we are able to maintain issues like scholar traits fixed. Whether or not Shine or his supporters had something to do with it, all I have is suspicions, is definitely irrelevant as a result of there\u2019s a a lot larger problem with Jacksonville\u2019s education landscape and it\u2019s that individuals like Shine, Chartrand and the folks at the Jacksonville Public Education Fund, additionally financed by Chartrand current them as serious players however the truth is they are not.\nName it what you want- the motion to create Summit-type program-in-a-software-field laptop driven knowledge-gathering training-flavored program products continues to collect steam, in no small part due to its attractiveness to buyers. Its appeal is multipronged. First, it\u2019s an actual product you can move to market. Second, by its very nature, it reduces the schooling biz to nice near numbers. None of this wiffle-waffle teacher drivel- push a button, and your display shows you good hard data, the type that can be used to delineate clear-cut success or failure (which h in turn is useful for social influence buyers).\niPad, Mac, and Apple TELEVISION develop what\u2019s potential contained in the classroom and past. iPad opens up new opportunities for studying. Mac is an engine for creativity. And Apple TELEVISION helps you capture your class\u2019s consideration like never before. (three) \u2013 You had a bad day on the check. It does occur. People have complications or a private drawback arises right before you stroll into the class. I feel the first two are the most likely issues but bad days do occur.

Her friend, Mary, who is also deaf-blind, had helped her stay connected to the community.\n\"When she moved away, I started to have challenges,\" she said. \"I wouldn\u2019t get my email. I wouldn\u2019t find out what was going on.\"\nTogether, the two women found a solution. During a visit, Mary told Annette about the National Deaf-Blind Equipment Distribution Program \u2013 known as iCanConnect. Annette applied to the program and received a laptop in 2014.\nRogers has no hearing in her right ear, and has hearing loss in her left ear. She can only see glare, due to glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration.\nHer equipment, along with SARA, a text-to-speech device, allows her to check email and messages. \"If it wasn\u2019t for the iCanConnect instructor, I wouldn\u2019t have been able to do that,\" she said.\nStaying in touch with Mary, who has since moved to Chicago, is now easy. Annette also uses her laptop to email with her six children and grandchildren who are spread out around the country.\nThanks to iCanConnect, Annette Skypes with her five sisters in Trinidad, which she still finds amazing. \u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful feeling. It\u2019s like you can reach out and touch them without really touching them.\u201d\n\u201cI want to reach as many people as possible. It keeps me happy and going all the time.\u201d\nShe shares the iCanConnect program with everyone she can. \u201cI pass it along, I tell everyone,\u201d she said. Annette is inspired by what she\u2019s already learned and eager to accomplish more.\niCCProfileAnnetteRogersFebruary2016.docx",

        "raw_content": "Lesson 1: \u201cCloud!?\u201d\nIf the term \u201cCloud\u201d is commonly used by our informants, we noticed that it was a surprisingly unclear notion for most of them. As a category, \u201ccloud computing\u201d was hard to grasp and they provided us with several definition of what it actually refers to. Although it is a fundamental infrastructure for everyday life with digital technologies, it seems that it is not as meaningful as we expected. From the users\u2019 perspective, the cloud is thus an intriguing research category.\n1995, more \u201cPictures of Clouds\u201d start to appear \u201cdenoting anything too complicated for non-technical people to understand.\u201d Image from \u201cA Brief History of Cloud\u201d on Thoughts On Cloud.\nWebsite linked from the post \u201cPictures of Clouds, 1995\u201d (21.10.2015).\nLesson 2: cloud providers, cloud users\nAs usual with technology, there are two kinds of discourses: the promises from those who provide the services, and their actual appropriation by the users, which often lead to a mix pleasant surprises, frustrations, interrogations and satisfaction. However, there is a gap between these two.\nFor the majority of people we interviewed, the cloud corresponds to a tiny icon on the OS GUI (Dropbox or Google Drive). Unlike the service providers\u2019 discourse and representation (data centers, evanescent clouds of data), the cloud corresponds to a set of (small) user interfaces features, seamlessly integrated into the OS. This means that it is hard for them to separate the cloud and their operating system. As our informants reported, they \u201cfeel\u201d the cloud when \u201cit refreshes\u201d or when it doesn\u2019t work (or when there\u2019s no network access).\nIn addition, our first workshop showed that what people report as \u201ccloud computing\u201d is quite diverse. As represented on the following diagram, it encompasses quite a large set of services:\nOur interviews, mixed with the analysis of forum content, also enabled us to map the this variety of uses to different motivations, highlighted in the following diagram :\nLesson 3: is the cloud a set of folders?\nThe gap between the grandiose description of The Cloud by the service providers and what the users actually as a consequence : for the users we spent time with, it corresponds to a set of folders\u2026 which actually behave differently than what they are used to. In other words, the representation of distant files/folders is perceived a misleading. The way file storage is represented gives them the impression that they would work as the local folders. But it is not the case and it leads to surprises and frustrations: disappearance of documents when someone accidentally removes a file he though was \u201conly on his laptop\u201d, confusion between \u201cshared folder\u201d and \u201cinvitation in a folder\u201d, etc.\nLesson 4: an opaque process\nA possible reason for this confusion is the difficulty to understand a process that is quite opaque for the users. Because, overall, cloud computing is all about \u201csyncing\u201d as we noticed, except that the syncing behavior of the services is difficult to understand: even when Dropbox tell users when it starts/when it\u2019s finished, there are always exceptions. Plus cloud computing relies on constant connectivity\u2026 which is not always the case.\nImage pulled from the post \u201cI&IC Workshop #6 with Sascha Pohflepp at HEAD: output > Cloud Gestures\u201c.\nLesson 5: surveillance? mmhmm \u2026\nThis one was the biggest surprise for us. Although most of our informants were aware of the surveillance risks, robocopyright (automatic verification of IP-protected content), and how personal data can be used for unknown purposes\u2026 no one was ready to stop using Cloud platforms. They are concerned by these issues of course but they saw them as drawbacks, the ugly side of the facility of use/access.\nWe are currently in the process of designing a booklet that expand on these 5 lessons with the material we produced in the field research workshop. In order to do this, we chose the format of the \u201calmanac\u201c, which we found quite apropos for this type of content. The book will feature the results of our work in a fragmentary way with a certain diversity of elements : diagrams, quotes, definitions of terms used by service provides and users, photographs, drawings, etc.\nMock-up of the booklet summing up the material produced in our field research.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Smart drugs\u2019 pose special risks to brain for students\nin: Analysis,Big Problems,Brain,Health & Fitness,Latest Trend,Science & Technology News\nThe brain is composed of neural fibers that connect various regions and enable them to communicate.\nOver a million American students misuse prescription drugs in hopes of boosting their attention, memory or energy levels. But taking these drugs could cause long-term impairments in brain function, recent animal studies suggest.\n\u201cSmart drugs\u201d that may improve brain performance in the short term appear to have lasting effects on developing brains, making them less adaptable for multitasking, planning ahead and organizing, researchers say.\nHuman brains continue developing into a person\u2019s 20s and 30s, particularly the prefrontal cortex, an area involved in planning and decision-making, said Dr. Wen-Jun Gao, a neuroscientist at Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia.\nBrain-enhancing drugs may increase the release of brain chemicals like dopamine, which can improve memory, learning and motivation in the short term. But, as with anything, \u201cif it\u2019s too much, it\u2019s not good,\u201d said Gao, who co-authored a paper summarizing the research on the long-term effects of brain-enhancing drugs, published Tuesday (May 13) in the journal Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience.\n\u201cAny drug that stimulates too much dopamine release can cause problems,\u201d Gao told Live Science.\n\u2018Smart\u2019 drugs\nThe most popular drug for enhancing mental performance is methylphenidate, more commonly known as Ritalin or Concerta, which is prescribed to treat people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). About 1.3 million American teenagers had misused methylphenidate in the previous month, according to a survey by the Partnership at Drugfree.org and the MetLife Foundation.\nStudies in juvenile rats have shown that even low doses of methylphenidate can affect developing brains by impairing nerve activity, working memory and the ability to switch between tasks.\nOther popular brain-boosting drugs include modafinil, sold as Provigil, a drug used to treat people with narcolepsy and other sleep disorders, as well as for alertness by U.S. Air Force pilots. Modafinil can boost memory, alertness and number ability, and is thought to increase dopamine levels in the synapses between brain cells. But the drug may have similar long-term effects to methylphenidate, research suggests.\nThe U.S. military is currently investigating another class of drugs called ampakines, for boosting soldiers\u2019 alertness. The drugs bind to receptors in the nervous system to boost nerve signals and strengthen neural connections. Ampakines have been found to improve memory and cognition in healthy human volunteers and in rats, but could pose a threat to young brains.\nAbuse of these drugs could overstimulate the nervous system, damaging or killing cells, the researchers said.\nMuch more research on the effects of smart drugs is needed, Gao said.\nVia Live Science",

The Peru Tribune reports Heraeus Electro-Nite, which makes measurement technology systems used with molten metals, plans to add more than 100,000 square feet of space to its Peru facility and add an as-yet unknown number of jobs.\nPlant Manager Jason McCoy says the expansion will double the size of its current facility. He says the project will allow the company to bring its distribution capabilities under one roof.\n\"A large part of it will be for distribution,\" McCoy told the publication. \"We do the distribution for our final product for all of U.S. and Canada, so a large part of it will be warehouse distribution, but then there will also be additional manufacturing as well.\"\nHeraeus has had a presence in Peru for nearly 30 years. An estimated time frame for completion of the expansion was not provided.\nYou can read more about the project in the Peru Tribune.",

        "raw_content": "\"But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.\" (Matthew 12:36-37)\nOur words have power. Just to hear someone say \"I love you\", in whatever context (friend, familial, romantic) is supremely empowering. True love from an honest heart, expressed through simple words. It erases hurts, soothe raw nerves, calms timorous temperaments. And God is saying it all the time.\n\"By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them, by the breath of His mouth.\" (Psalm 33:6)\nLet's follow God's lead. Not because of an irrational fear of judgment, but because we love Him. \"Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children.\" (Ephesians 5:1) And I'm not talking about creating galaxies and worlds and infinite space, I'm referring of course, to creating the feelings needed to sustain and build up the body of Christ. Our brothers and sisters in Him. Far, far more important.\nIt takes time to iron out the words we speak. And while I believe it's within our power to do so, James (3:8) says that \"the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.\" Ouch. Guilty! If we're going to untwist our tongues and speak words that edify as opposed to tear down, we'll need all the help from the Holy Spirit we can get!\n\"Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt...\" (Colossians 4:6)\nAssuming \"idle hands are the devil's workshop\", what are \"idle words\"? \"The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.\" (Proverbs 18:8) A \"talebearer\" eh? Also known as a gossip. People's secrets are precious. And if someone takes the time to not only share with you privileged information, but also to get to know you well enough to do so, realize that you've been given a piece of their heart. Something that needs guarding and tending. Be sure to share it with no one but God. It goes without saying. Talk might be cheap, but it all depends on what you're saying, right?\n\"Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what He said.\" (Luke 9:33, emphasis mine) This is Peter talking. Telling Jesus what He wants to do for Him, as well as Moses and Elijah. They two had just appeared to Jesus and were discussing the forthcoming events. Heavy stuff. And while Peter's heart was right, it would seem his desire to build \"tabernacles\" for them wasn't quite the right response. Have you ever encountered an individual who after you talk to them realize you put your foot in your mouth? I have and it's quite embarrassing. God the Father, however, speaks through the cloud in the verses following, saying \"This is my beloved Son: hear Him.\" (verse 35) Sometimes, all you really can contribute to a situation is silence. I'm not saying that Peter was a fool, he just wasn't at the same level as Jesus or Moses or Elijah, he just thought he was. But, \"Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.\" (Proverbs 17:28) Some things do indeed go without saying.\n\"Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace to the hearers.\" (Ephesians 4:29) When we live in the light of God's words to us, and indeed the living Word (Jesus), then everything we say will end up being the right words at the right time. \"But whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.\" (Mark 13:11, emphasis mine)\nBut don't be harsh with yourself. Our words are important. So much so, that God says He'll even tell us what to say. You'll know it, because it's just so refreshingly different than what you're generally accustomed to saying. Idle words? Please... One of the fruits of the Spirit is \"temperance\" (Galatians 5:23) or self-control.\n*whispering* Pray this: \"Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.\" (Psalm 19:14)\nAnd don't forget to say \"please\" and \"thank-you\".\nidle words, language, temperance, conversation, God, words, Holy Spirit, self-control, speaking, idle hands, Jesus, Christianity",

        "raw_content": "21. It is raining bad luck in Panama. (11/12-11/17/07)\nSo far I have managed to wash my ipod, drop my camera card into the Panama Canal, and waste 2 days driving aimlessly in search of transportation to Columbia. On a more positive note, I have been couchsurfing with a couple of very nice guys, Rafael and his brother Angel in Panama City. They live very modestly, but have one of the best views from their apartment in Casco Viejo (historical area). Here is a picture of what I have been using to take showers for the last few days. There is a shower here, but the water pressure is too low to take a shower and for most of the day the water does not work.\nEarlier in the week I met up with Wayne and his friend Mike and we drove to the East coast together. The road was very backed up to Colon and we were forced to do a massive amount of lane splitting and shoulder driving. This was very fun, but dangerous at the same time because the shoulder was full of pot holes and lose gravel.\nWayne and Mike arranged sailboat transportation for an all inclusive price of $550 each. I decided that I could find a better deal than this. We split up 30 miles West of Colon as they drove South to Portobello and I drove East to Colon to try and find cheap trasportation. My guidebook gives a warning saying that you should avoid going to Colon because you could be mugged in broad day light. My god was this warning right! If you have ever seen Blackhawk Down, Colon looks just like Mogadishu in this movie. Every building looks like it is on the verge of collapse but people still live there (most of the buildings were constructed by the French and the U.S. when the Canal was being built from 1900-1920). The streets are full of garbage and uncovered manholes (saw a guy prying one up so he could make a few backs recycling it). The people here look like they have been through a lot. Every third guy I saw on the street looked like he was ready to rob me (I left my helmet on most of the time as I walked into stores). After finding out that there were no boats to Columbia until next week I hightailed it back to Panama City.",

        "raw_content": "Prophets Of Addiction have returned with their latest record, the unplugged, acoustic release; Nothing But The Truth. Founder, front man and bassist Lesli Sanders teamed up with fellow constant member and guitarist G.G. to bring us this special release. Coming off the releases of their two previous records which featured their full band, Lesli and G.G. have been touring lately across the country performing their acoustic songs as part of the Prophets Of Addiction Unplugged tour.\n\u201cAmerican Dream\u201d opens up the record. Introduced by Lesli\u2019s vocals with an intertwining guitar delivery from both himself and G.G.. A beautiful piano interlude flows throughout the track and adds a very calm, soothing feeling. \u201cAlter Of Altercation\u201d opens with a duel guitar intro before the vocals kick in. This song has one of my favorite lyrical designs. Lyrics written about a beautiful woman who turns your happiness into sorrow. \u201cBabylon Boulevard\u201d has a more aggressive delivery. Lesli \u2018s vocals come across with a touch more anger but are bridged by G.G.\u2019s soloing. It gives the feel of walking down a darkened street contemplating your past actions and where to go from there. \u201cTalkin\u2019\u201d has a much bluesier feel. A higher pitched guitar delivery with slide also gives it a southern touch. \u201cLast Of The Words\u201d opens with a lighter, quicker guitar tone. While G.G.\u2019s backing vocals are featured throughout the record this is the first track when you really hear him and Lesli harmonizing together. It gives \u201cLast Of The Words\u201d more of a duet feel which also makes its place at the midway point of the record a nice touch. \u201cSpare The Bullets\u201d is one of my favorite tracks on the record. It opens with a darker almost sadder tone. \u201cSTB\u201d gives the feeling of taking a deep look at yourself in the mirror while avoiding the slings and arrows from people who don\u2019t understand your lifestyle. \u201cHollywood\u201d talks of the trials and tribulations being faced living in Los Angeles. The guitars run on a much more parallel plain and the gang vocals design bring a new dimension to the record and a feeling of camaraderie. \u201cAtmosphere\u201d is another favorite of mine because it gives me the feeling of a man being alone with his thoughts. The infusion of a violin brings a softer side to the song and a unique pairing with the guitars. \u201cHeart Of Mine\u201d is more of a pure love song. You get much more of a solo feel to this track. It comes across as much more of just Lesli because you get the feeling and vision of someone playing just for someone else. \u201cReturn The Smile\u201d has that pure ballad feel, especially when it comes to the chorus. It\u2019s very gentle but comes out of a tougher designed song. The opening riff strumming of the track gives a slight feel of angst but as you\u2019re listening it comes across very clear that the person in the story understands the support they have.\nI very much enjoyed this record. Acoustic records can often be judged unfairly but the musicianship is very clear and delivers that rock and roll feel. It is in no way lost in translation. Lesli\u2019s vocal tone has always been unique and a trademark to the sound of Prophets Of Addiction and his partnership with G.G. makes for a terrific listening experience. The record is out now so go out and get it!",

But for many people looking at how to pay for long term care, the insurance ship has already sailed.\nMedicare. When ordered under a doctor\u2019s care, Medicare will cover a short stay in a nursing home for rehabilitation. But it\u2019s not a long term solution.\nGovernment Benefits Programs. Many people who can qualify for the VA Aid and Attendance Pension or Medicaid aren\u2019t receiving these valuable benefits.\nWe never know if we will run into bad weather on our life journey. A storms might always be lurking unseen, just over the horizon. How we ride out that storm\u2014or even avoid it entirely\u2014depends upon our level of preparation.\nThe Coming Nursing Home Storm\nFour out of ten seniors will spend time in a nursing home during their life. Those seniors relying on their own funds (private pay) will owe an average of $74,825 per year (or $6,235 per month) according to a 2010 study.\nAnd that\u2019s just the nursing home. The cost gets even bigger when medical treatment and prescription drugs are included.\nAt that rate, a nest egg saved over the course of a lifetime can be gone in just a few years.\nHowever you\u2019re going to pay for nursing home care if it becomes necessary, it\u2019s clear that you need to plan for it.\nCharting a Course with Medicaid\nWith the cost of long term care rising, Medicaid is increasingly becoming the go-to resource to pay for it. Medicaid is now the primary payor for more than 63% of all nursing home residents (in other words, about two-thirds).\nEveryone\u2014with large assets or small, with long term care insurance or without\u2014should be thinking about where Medicaid fits into their long term care plan.\nThe requirements for Medicaid eligibility are pretty strict. There are some exceptions, but the general rule of thumb is that a single person will need to have less than $2,000 to their name to qualify. But buried within those Medicaid rules are the foundation for strategies to get qualified without becoming a pauper.\nCareful Medicaid planning\u2014right now\u2014can help you protect your hard-earned assets. Keep it in the family, rather than giving every last penny you have to a nursing home.",

I can\u2019t remember how many years ago now, maybe five. We went to a DOA call. A grandmother had been providing day care for her infant grandchild. As she was holding the baby, she had a heart attack. She was going in to the bedroom and she fell on the bed on top of the baby. She suffocated the baby. So it was a double DOA. I went to the funeral, which I don\u2019t normally do. One of the firefighters who responded to the call also went to the funeral.\nI think about that family every Mother\u2019s Day. I think about that family on Christmas. I think about them sometimes when I just see a mom and a baby, or what looks to me to be a grandmother and a baby. It used to make me sad sometimes to the point where I would cry. It was such a horrific accident. It was bad enough that the grandmother died. Why the baby? I could not make sense out of that one.\nOther calls stuck with me for a while. There was one where this guy owed another guy some money from some business transaction. This guy and his wife worked at a pizza restaurant across from the Seattle Center. The guy he owed money to came into the restaurant and shot him. I had to take the wife home. She had to tell her kids that their dad had been shot and didn\u2019t make it. That was my very first one that bothered me.",

        "raw_content": "Next of Kin Mrs Caroline Desilet, 2702 North Berch Street, La Grande, Oregon\nTrade / Calling Sawyer\nBattalion Company C\nBranch 91st Division, 361st Infantry Regiment\nBuried At Saint Thomas Cemetery, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, USA\nPlot New Section 45, Grave 1\nDesilet, Joseph Francis\nJoseph Francis Desilet was born on 25 May 1890 in Norman, Ontario, the community now amalgamated with Kenora in northwestern Ontario. His parents Joseph Desilet and Caroline Provost were both from Quebec, marrying on 21 April 1873 in St Theodore de Chestsy, Montcalm. At the time of the marriage Joseph Sr\u2019s occupation was given as cultivateur (farmer). Over the years the surname was alternately spelled as Desilets. After giving birth to son Emile in 1875, the family briefly lived in Vermont where son William was born in 1878, likely in Rutland. By the time of the 1881 Canada census the family was farming in Ste Agathe, Provencher, Manitoba where other Provost family lived. Daughters born in Manitoba were Diana (1882) and Amanda (1883). By the time of the birth of their next child, daughter Julia Anna in 1886, the family was living in Norman. Following the births of Norman Alexander in 1888 and Joseph in 1890, Joseph Oscar was born in 1892 but sadly he died in 1894. Joseph Oscar Antonnie was born in 1896 and Stella in 1900. At the time of the 1901 census the family was listed in Rat Portage (later renamed Kenora) where Joseph Sr was working as a saw mill labourer. Amanda had died in 1899 in Norman and after the 1901 census further trace of Antonnie was not found.\nAround 1907 some of the family immigrated to the United States, with Joseph\u2019s parents and some of his siblings settling in La Grande, Union, Oregon where Joseph Sr worked as a millwright for the George Palmer Lumber Company. According to a later census, Joseph immigrated to the States in 1916 and was working as a sawyer for a lumber company in Bend, Oregon when he signed his WW1 Draft Registration card on 5 June 1917 in Bend. According to his US Department of Veterans Affairs Death file, Joseph enlisted on 26 April 1918.\nConstituted 5 August 1917 in the National Army as the 361st Infantry and assigned to the 91st Division, the 361st Infantry Regiment was organized 4-6 September 1917 at Camp Lewis, Washington. As a Private with Company C with the 361st, Joseph embarked for overseas from Brooklyn, New York aboard the Karoa on 6 July 1918. The passenger list gave his mother Caroline in La Grande as next of kin. The 361st\u2019s Campaign Participation Credit World War I included Ypres-Lys, Meuse-Argonne, and Lorraine 1918. With the end of the war and having being promoted to Private 1st Class, Joseph embarked from St Nazaire, France aboard the Edward Luckenbach on 3 April 1919. Arriving in Hoboken, New Jersey on the 15th, Joseph was discharged from service on the 28th. Joseph\u2019s brother Norman trained/served in the States during the war, further details unknown.\nOn 30 September 1919, in the County of Kootenai in Idaho, Joseph married Pearl Marquis. Born on 15 February 1896 in Baraga, Michigan, Pearl was the daughter of Ernest Marquis and Marie Lavasseur. Her parents were born in Canada, with the family found living in Akeley, Minnesota at the time of the 1910 US census and in Idaho by the 1920 census.\nJoseph and Pearl were eventually to make Coeur d\u2019Alene, Idaho their home where Joseph worked as a lumber company sawyer. The couple gave birth to three children, son Robert in 1921 in La Grande, Oregon, and daughters Anna in 1923 and Betty Lou in 1929, both in Coeur d\u2019Alene. A mechanic and repairman, Robert served with the US Air Force in WW2 from October 1942 to November 1945.\nJoseph died on 12 May 1980 in Spokane, Washington. At the time of his death he was survived by his son Robert and daughter Betty Lou (Robert) Stevens, both of Spokane, his sister Julia Siegrist of Portland, eleven grandchildren and four great grandchildren. He was predeceased by his daughter Anna (William) McFarland in 1973 in Spokane and his wife Pearl on 24 July 1975 in Coeur d\u2019Alene as well as his mother Caroline (1927, La Grande), father Joseph (1935, La Grande), siblings William (1959, Scappoose), Norman (1971,La Dalles), Diana (Clovis) Degagne (1971, La Dalles), and Stella (Paul) Masse (1971, Portland). His brother Emile had moved back to Canada and his date and place of death are unknown. Joseph\u2019s sister Julia Anna (William) Siegrist later died in 1986 in Portland. Joseph and Pearl are interred in the Saint Thomas Cemetery in Coeur d\u2019Alene.\nGrave marker photo courtesy of Bill Kapaun, findagrave.com\nObituary provided by Becky Menzel, Spokane Public Library",

Scharre is loaded with them:\nFrom 2008-2013, Scharre worked in the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) where he played a leading role in establishing policies on unmanned and autonomous systems and emerging weapon technologies. Scharre led the DoD working group that drafted DoD Directive 3000.09, establishing the department\u2019s policies on autonomy in weapon systems.\nScharre also led DoD efforts to establish policies on intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) programs and directed energy technologies. He was involved in the drafting of the 2012 Defense Strategic Guidance, 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review and secretary-level planning guidance. His most recent position was special assistant to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy John Rood.\nPrior to joining OSD, Scharre served as a special operations reconnaissance team leader in the Army\u2019s 3rd Ranger Battalion and completed multiple tours to Iraq and Afghanistan. He is a graduate of the Army\u2019s airborne, ranger, and sniper schools and honor graduate of the 75th Ranger Regiment\u2019s Ranger Indoctrination Program.",

The harassment included the arrest and intimidation of employees\u2019 family members based in Iran.\nIran\u2019s government-run Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) has a long history of parading Iran\u2019s critics and their family members on national TV, where they are forced to make so-called \u201cconfessions\u201d or public statements meant to discredit them and their causes.\nLast Tuesday, the Iranian state TV broadcasted the confessions of two Peshmerga fighters that were captured by Iranian security forces.\nHuman rights groups have documented several instances in which dissidents, activists, and journalists were featured in pseudo-documentary videos intended to \u201cprove\u201d their \u201cguilt,\u201d though they apparently did not appear willingly.\nIn December 2015, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) rejected a complaint by two IRIB officials against the European Union\u2019s decision to include them on its human rights sanctions list for broadcasting a series of forced confessions by detainees who had been tortured.\n\u201cAs the European Court of Justice emphasizes in its ruling against the IRIB chiefs, collaboration with the security apparatus in producing pseudo-documentary videos, and broadcasting coercive confessions are serious human rights violations,\u201d said Shadi Sadr, executive director of Justice for Iran.",

        "raw_content": "CKDU-What needs to be done\nR.M. GAMINI RAJAPAKSE [B.Sc. Hon. (Peradeniya), Ph.D. and D.I.C.\nThe Editor of \u201cThe ISLAND\u201d Newspaper,\nI have studied over 300 journal articles and WHO reports pertinent to Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown Aetiology (CKDU) prevailing in Sri Lanka, and together with my opinions and studies, I prepared a detailed presentation on \u201cCKDU REVISITED\u201d, which I presented as Invited Lectures at our Medical Faculty (University of Peradeniya), Science Faculty (University of Peradeniya), Institute of Fundamental Studies (IFS), Sri Lanka Institute of Nanotechnolgy (SLINTEC), Annual Sessions of the Soil Science Society (SRICANSOL), University of Peradeniya Senate (Open to\nPublic) and the last one last Thursday at the SLASS Auditorium (Jointly Organized by the SLASS and NASSL, Open to Public). Assistant Secretary to His Excellency the President of Sri Lanka and his team were also present at the SLASS for this lecture. This Assistant Secretary is an Eminent Science Graduate with Postgraduate Qualifications in several disciplines. We had a follow up chat in which he requested me to send my presentation. Thus, the presentation is in the Presidential Secretariat now to realize true science as opposed to frauds and nonscience.\nWith the Patronages of our Vice-Chancellor, University of Peradeniya (Professor Atula Senaratne) and Dean, Faculty of Medicine (Professor M.D. Lamawansa), we have formed \u201cThe CKDU Centre of University of Peradeniya\u201d, at the Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Medicine, where the working team is comprised of Nephrologists, Pathologists, Distinguished General Practitioners, Sociologists, Chemists, Geologists, Experts in Crop Science, Statisticians, Veterinary Scientists, Allied Health Scientists, Dental Scientists and others. This CKDU is a multidisciplinary problem that requires input from all these angles to identify its root causes (multi-causative disease) and to find ways and means to eradicate it. We are nearly there now, but, of course, it is as of now, too premature to come to concrete conclusions.\nMeantime, we have organized a musical show for November 01st night at Dharmajara Auditorium where the singers are patients who have undergone kidney transplants, 10 of them selected from 100 of kidney transplanted individuals including Master Ananda Perera, Raju Bandara and Bandara Athauda. Honourable Minister of Health is the Chief Guest of the occasion. The collection will be used to improve Kandy Hospital\u2019s Nephrology Unit; surprisingly the unit has only 30 Dialysis Machines for each patients to dialyze 4 hours per session 3 times a week! There are over 60,000 CKDU patients. To further strengthen this unit, I have contacted my expatriate students abroad who are now Professors of almost all US Universities and some others are holding key positions in US Industries. They are willing to help us to improve this Nephrology Unit and the fund raising will be done properly through the University\u2019s Accounts Section.\nWe can easily disprove the so called \u201cGlyphosate Hypothesis\u201d and we have done so. Based on this unproven hypothesis, which can be proven wrong, the safest weed killer called Roundup (Active Ingredient is\nGlyphosate) has been banned. This act will result in 40% reduction in rice yield (according to experts of our Agriculture Faculty and also those of the Agriculture Department) and the poor farmers will definitely fall from pot to fire and the reduced rice production will lead to starvation in the near future. Banning glyphosate will not solve the problem of CKDU in whatever the way, since glyphosate has NOTHING to do with CKDU. This banning is promoted by a group of people who have some hidden agendas. We, as scientists, are totally against fooling scientifically illiterate farmers who produce our staple food.\nAs such, we, the members of the academic staff of the Faculty of Science, University of Peradeniya, discussed this very important National Issue and sent an Open Letter to His Excellency the President of Sri Lanka explaining the gravity of the problem. We have attached this letter for your reference and for further actions please. We hope that you would publish it in your Newspaper; the newspaper popular among our academic community also.\nI have another article explaining why the banning of glyphosate will not help solve the problem of CKDU, which I will send to you in due course.\n(Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, University of London), C.Chem, FNASSL] Senior Professor in Chemistry, Coordinator, M.Sc. Programme in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Department of Chemistry, University of Peradeniya, Peradeniya 20400 Visiting Professor, Graduate School of Engineering and Research Institute of Electronics, Shizuoka University, Japan.\n3 Responses to \u201cCKDU-What needs to be done\u201d\nLooks like an advert on Glyphosate. If the problem is not agrochemicals or glyphosate, then what it is?. Please explain with facts and figures here so that we all can read. Anything even remotely connected with CKDu should be banned. It does not matter what the economic consequences are; people\u2019s lives are more important. You scientists are there to talk about the safety aspects and ensure that first, economic matters second. Do not keep arguing until the whole farmer community is wiped out.\nToday I received an email from a Professor who was connected with agriculture in SL and now employed overseas with the announcement of the development of a water purifying equipment that has been used to remove the heavy metals from the drinking water of Rajarata people. According to him it has been tested on affected areas and has been successful in reduced the heavy metal content in their blood. It seems it has already been patented in SL. If it is correct we will make arrangements to manufacture this inexpensive device in large scale and distribute on a non profit making basis among the NCP people.\nFunny thing is these various scientist are out there suddenly not to save lives but to disprove the so called \u201cGlyphosate Hypothesis\u201d.\nCKDu is not somebody\u2019s dream or a fiction. It is real and people are dying.\nJust like Lanka Web declare a disclaimer at the end of every article published here, those experts writing for or against the actions of the GOSL or the officials writing on behalf of authorities should declare that they are not benefiting in anyway from research work or papers being written on this subject. There had been allegation that some of these experts children are studying in universities of the countries selling these chemicals at the expense of companies marketing them.",

        "raw_content": "Getting Ready for the Hair Removal Process\nDo you envision yourself with smooth, unblemished skin? Are you sick of waxing and plucking to make that inner image become a reality? If so, there is a New York hair removal treatment option for you. The Groom Laser and Skin Center provides safe, effective hair removal treatments that will take a matter of moments and leave you looking and feeling better than ever before. If you want to take advantage of this offer, here are a few things you should be aware of.\nThe laser hair removal process is one that both men and women can benefit from. Virtually any area that grows hair can be treated, and the process works at its best when it targets areas where hair grows coarse and is hard to get rid of through conventional means. This can include nostrils, abs, arms and legs, bikini lines, and sensitive areas like ears and areola. Prior to showing up for your appointment, you should shave the area where you want hair to be removed. This will allow the process to target the follicles more effectively. Ideally, you should shave these areas either the day before or the day of your treatment.\nLaser hair removal is a completely safe procedure that will cause most people no pain or discomfort at all. However, there are still steps that you need to go through in order to prepare for the treatment. These preparatory steps help to make sure that the treatment eliminates unwanted hair as smoothly and effectively as possible. First, you should make sure not to tan or do anything else that might damage your skin and hair for at least two weeks prior to the treatment date. On the day of the treatment, you should also shave the area where you wish hair removed. This will allow the lasers to focus on the follicles themselves. You should consult your technician about other preparatory steps.\nCare, Treatment, and Follow-Up\nAfter you have received your NYC facial treatments, you should avoid tanning and other skin-damaging activities for a few days to a couple of weeks afterward. If you experience anything unusual after the treatment, be sure to contact your technician. For the most part, you don\u2019t have to do anything else after you have received your treatment \u2013 it\u2019s just a matter of enjoying the new you. In some cases, additional sessions might help make sure that the unwanted hair never grows back. In other cases, one session might be all you need in order to achieve long-term results.\nWith only a few basic steps, you can effectively prepare for the laser treatment process. The actual treatment requires you to do nothing more than lay back and relax while a skilled technician does the work. Afterward, as long as you make sure not to overexpose yourself to damaging environments, you should see immediate improvements in your skin quality. This process can allow you to shape your face as you wish, eliminating any unwanted hairs and letting your skin shine.\nGroom Laser and Skin Center\n216 E 39th St Suite 1",

        "raw_content": "You Are Here: Home \u00bb Events \u00bb Lebanese Environment Forum organizes a workshop on Responsible Hunting\nPosted date: November 28, 2014 In: Events | comment : 0\nThe Lebanese Environment Forum held a national workshop last Saturday, under the patronage of HE M. Mohammad El Machnuk, Minister of Environment to discuss a project aiming to regulate and promote responsible hunting practices in Lebanon, at the Holiday Inn Hotel in Beirut.\nThis project is being implemented in Lebanon with a grant received from the Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund (CEPF) and with technical support from the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon (SPNL).\nThe objective of this national workshop was to build the capacity of conservation NGO members of the LEF on the importance of IBAs/KBAs, birds and biodiversity; discuss the status of hunting, and concept of responsible hunting; introduce the concept of Responsible Hunting Areas to the LEF conservation NGOs and agree on the criteria for RHAs identification and selection. Further, the workshop aimed to develop materials and an action plan for an awareness campaign, which will be implemented locally by the member NGOs.\nThe establishment of Responsible Hunting Areas in Lebanon is an attempt to balance the needs of wildlife with the needs of people using the best available science to ensure safe and responsible hunting.\nGame hunting is permitted within Responsible Hunting Areas borders with bag limit and under the control of the local community that is represented by the local authority, the municipality. Management within RHAs draws on disciplines such as mathematics, chemistry, biology, ecology, climatology and geography to gain the best results.\nMore than 100 representatives from environmental associations in Lebanon and municipalities, in addition to representatives of the Hunting Higher Council, Birdlife International, United Nations Development Program, and the representative of the CEPF in the Mediterranean area, were present at this event. The participants signed a declaration aiming to achieve responsible hunting in Lebanon,.\nAfter the welcome speech given by the secretary of the LEF Malek Ghandour, Mrs. Lara Samaha representative of HE M. Mohammed El Machnuk, Minister of Environment and Head of ecosystems and biodiversity department at the ministry, reviewed the scope of the obligations stipulated in the hunting law and announced that the Ministry of Environment completed regulatory decrees and decisions of the law but will not open the hunting season officially this year, hoping to complete the logistics procedures that will enable the Hunting Higher Council to approve the recommendation on opening the hunting season in 2015.\nSamaha confirmed that the Council is studying the criteria for selecting the RHA dedicated for responsible hunting raised by the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon-SPNL, through studies carried out in the context of the Migratory soaring birds project.\nThe President of the LEF Rifaat Saba highlighted the importance of the workshop in raising awareness about the modalities of application of the hunting law in Lebanon No. 580, issued in 2004 and confirmed the readiness of the members of the LEF to raise awareness about RHA which will be launched in coordination with municipalities interested in organizing hunting. He announced that a pilot area will be initiated through the CEPF funded project which would constitutes a breakthrough for the organization of this sector currently uncontrolled.\nMr. Ramzi Saidi representative of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon highlighted that the low level of public awareness in Lebanon, led to random hunting on public and private lands, and even on the borders of reserves resulting in the death of many birds species, even those globally threatened.\nIn turn, the Director General of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon, Assad Serhal said that the experience of the Society in organizing wild hunting over thirty years led it to believe that the solution lies in the creation of RHA dedicated for responsible hunting managed and monitored by the concerned municipalities and within its lands. Without the implementation of this type of control, it is impossible to enforce the hunting law in Lebanon. He revealed that the Society in collaboration with the University of Balamand have studied 10 potential RHA dedicated for responsible hunting and identified them on maps along with the game species allowable to hunt in these areas hoping that the Hunting Higher Council will approve these maps in its next meeting, and that municipalities will adhere to this option to regulate the hunting within their municipal lands, pointing out that the CEPF funded project implemented by the LEF will push also towards the adoption of this option and the start of its application through a pilot area.\nThe expert in ornithology and member of the Hunting Higher Council Dr. Ghassan Ramadan-Jaradi, made a detailed presentation on the scientific criteria for the identification of RHAs.\nHe added, \u201d for 19 years during the hunting ban, it was not enforced on the ground. Therefore we were obliged to suggest proactive ideas, such as limiting hunting activities in RHA which are managed and controlled by municipalities. Due to the lack of standards in the world for RHA, we have created relevant criteria and standards which draw the attention of the world. He pointed out that the CEPF funded project will mark the beginning of launching RHA dedicated for responsible hunting in Lebanon and will be the beginning of a solution to stop uncontrolled and irresponsible hunting in Lebanon.\nNour Zouhairy form UNDP office in Lebanon highlighted the Migratory Soaring Birds Project (MSB) position and aspiration regarding the hunting issue. Mainstreaming Conservation of Migratory Soaring Birds into Key Productive Sectors along the Rift Valley/Red Sea Flyway\u201d project aims to the threats on populations of migratory soaring birds from productive sectors along the flyway, including hunting. For that purpose, strategic alliances with major actors of the hunting sector have been established with the aim of successfully integrating conservation objectives, such as achieving responsible hunting, within the sector\u2019s regulations and activities.\nHussein Al Kisswani, Regional Flyway Facility (RFF) officer, was given the opportunity to present the MSB project Code of Best Practices for Responsible Hunting and the Full Protection Migratory Soaring Birds. The code of best practices will be published in a booklet format and soon be available for distribution at MSB project partners\u2019 offices\nBassima Khatib, Assistant Director General in the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon, explained the importance of IBAs/KBAs, birds and biodiversity in Lebanon, exposed the current situation of wild hunting in Lebanon, and the concept of responsible hunting. Rebecca Baissari from the LEF featured the goals of the project and a calendar of action adopted by LEF in involving NGOs in raising the awareness of hunters in Lebanon to responsible hunting practices.\nResponsible Hunting Areas contribute to reduce the loss in the earth\u2019s biodiversity by taking into consideration ecological principles such as carrying capacity, disturbance and succession; and environmental conditions such as physical geography, pedology and hydrology with the aim of balancing the needs of wildlife with the needs of people.\nThe \u201cLebanese Environment Forum\u201d is a democratic umbrella organization that brings together environmental NGOs. It comprises more than 45 organizations and it is managed to coordinate and inter-cooperate among its members, to ensure the spread of information and coordination in order to boost action. The Lebanese Environment Forum was established in 1992 and it got official licensing from the Ministry of the Interior No. 415.\nThe Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund is a global leader in enabling civil society to participate in and benefit from conserving some of the world\u2019s most critical ecosystems.

        "raw_content": "Smart Immigration for Europe\nJul 9, 2018 | Analysis |\nSAMI MAHROUM\nThe immigration issue has long been a thorn in the EU\u2019s side, not least because of the fear-mongering and emotional manipulation that have impeded constructive debate. But a new social contract for economic migrants \u2013 which protects their rights, while restricting their social privileges \u2013 could finally remove the thorn.\nPARIS \u2013 Immigration-related headlines have become a staple in Europe, whether the story is of an illegal Malian immigrant scaling a Paris building to rescue a toddler or the formation of a populist government in Italy that aims to deport a half-million migrants. And yet, despite the constant coverage of the issue \u2013 or, more likely, precisely because of it \u2013 the immigration policy debate remains beset by misconceptions and politicization.\nIn the United Kingdom, the Brexit vote was fueled partly by false and distorted claims, such as that unrestrained migration from the rest of Europe was driving down wages. Since the vote, however, the anti-Brexit camp has engaged in similar distortions, warning that, once it has left the European Union, the UK will face a skills shortage. But plenty of countries \u2013 such as Australia, Canada, and Singapore \u2013 do just fine without agreements guaranteeing freedom of movement from other countries, by issuing skills-matching visas.\nSuch distortions, by both pro- and anti- immigration forces across Europe, have consistently thwarted sober debate on the topic. Even when parties seem to be carrying out a reasonable cost-benefit analysis of immigration\u2019s economic impact, they tend to cite only the studies and data that back their own viewpoint. This precludes agreement on creative and effective solutions.\nJudging by my years spent studying the international migration of highly skilled workers, not to mention living as an immigrant, a rational and balanced debate on immigration must begin with the perspective of immigrants themselves. What drives a person to move to a new and usually unknown country?\nIn answering this question, it quickly becomes clear that immigration is a highly varied phenomenon, depending as it does on a diversity of factors such as nationality, skill level, intended duration abroad, and motivation. The experience of a medical specialist moving permanently to the UK from India is very different from that of a construction worker from Romania hoping to secure a better salary in France. From the ease of the journey to the living conditions into which they settle, both the experiences of both are very different from those of a refugee from Syria hoping to wait out that country\u2019s civil war in Germany.\nWhat these experiences do have in common is they are generally driven by a desire to raise one\u2019s living standards, whether through a more prestigious position, a higher salary, or increased physical safety. In short, immigrants want better lives \u2013 not a new culture or identity.\nEconomic migrants, in particular, are simply job-seekers from overseas. If comparable employment could be created at home, they might never migrate at all. In this sense, the economic migration challenge boils down to an issue of job brokerage.\nGiven this, economic migrants should be matched with jobs where they are needed, potentially through newly created job-brokering agencies for major immigrant-sending countries. A program inspired by the EU-Turkey refugee-exchange program \u2013 in which the number of rotating work visas made available for a country are tied to the number of illegal job-seeking immigrants repatriated to that country \u2013 could also be created.\nOf course, once in the host country, the immigrants\u2019 rights as foreign workers should be protected. But they do not need to be granted full access to the political rights and social benefits of their host society\u2019s citizens.\nThis is roughly the system that is in place in the United Arab Emirates, where millions of foreign-born workers voluntarily pursue employment. They know they will enjoy labor and human-rights protections, with abuses prosecuted under the law, but no additional privileges. This system enables the UAE to give nearly eight million people the opportunity to raise their living standards, while avoiding a backlash from the indigenous population.2\nAnother innovative solution, which may work in some areas, is Switzerland\u2019s \u201cG permit\u201d scheme, available to foreigners who live in a border zone in their home country and work in a border zone in Switzerland. (Border zones are established by treaty.) All cross-border commuters must return to their home country at least once a week. Could the EU create its own \u201cborder zone\u201d category permitting a system of flexible mobility for non-permanent workers from Africa and the Near East?\nDenying migrants the privileges associated with living in their host country may seem to contradict traditional European liberal and egalitarian values. As a liberal myself, I share these values, but recognize that insisting on them as a matter of policy ultimately undermines migrants\u2019 interests . With vehemently anti-immigrant political forces gaining ground throughout Europe, one must ask whether the newcomers desperate for a job are better served by being admitted on a conditional basis (including, potentially, for a limited period), or by not being admitted at all.\nSkills-biased immigration gives rise to a similar dilemma. Many in Europe argue that this approach not only discriminates against the weakest groups of immigrants, but also leads to a brain drain from countries that need highly skilled workers.2\nBut, again, one must examine the trade-off. Skilled immigrants are more likely to integrate smoothly into the host society, to which they can add more value. This enables the construction of cultural bridges between host societies and home countries. More important, those immigrants can send more money home in remittances than they would have been able to contribute in taxes had they remained.\nThe immigration issue has long been a thorn in the EU\u2019s side, not least because of the fear-mongering and emotional manipulation that have impeded constructive debate. The key to softening the thorn, if not removing it altogether, may be to establish, at the national and EU levels, a social contract for economic migrants. Such a \u201cforeign worker rights charter\u201d would protect immigrants\u2019 rights, while restricting their social privileges.\nWith immigration no longer dominating the political agenda, the EU might finally be able to address the myriad other challenges it faces. Ideally, it would do so with the same kind of cooperative, creative, and clear-eyed approach.\n*Sami Mahroum is Director of the Innovation & Policy Initiative at INSEAD, a member of the WEF Regional Strategy Group for the Middle East and North Africa, and Non-Resident Fellow at The Lisbon Council.

Formerly known as \u2018juvenile diabetes\u2019 or \u2018insulin-dependent diabetes\u2019.\nIn type 2 diabetes, the body either does not produce enough insulin, or is unable to use insulin normally. Type 2 diabetes usually occurs in adults older than 40 years but is becoming more common in younger adults. Some ethnic groups are at greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, particularly people of South Asian, African and African-Caribbean descent.

For example, drugs crimes involve some of the most serious minimum mandatory sentences. Those convicted of an offense under this sentencing guideline will face a strict prison term with no potential time off for good behavior. This law is also known as the \"10-20-Life\" law. It requires courts to impose a minimum sentence of 10 years, 20 years, 25 years, or even life for any felony convictions that fall under this category.\nFlorida enforces minimum mandatory sentences for various crimes, including:\nHome invasion / robbery\nWhen a firearm or other dangerous weapon is involved in any of these offenses, in can result in these minimum mandatory sentences.\nIncreased Sentences for Habitual Offenders\nIf an individual has prior convictions on their record for the same offense, such as two convictions of DUI while they are facing a charge for a third, they may be considered a habitual offender.\nSpecifically, a Florida court may impose a more serious sentence if they find that the defendant:\nHas been convicted of two or more felonies;\nWas serving a sentence for the previous offense;\nWas on felony supervision; and\nCommitted the subsequent offense within five years after a conviction / release from state prison.\nThe current felony charge and one of the priors could not have been an offense involving the purchase or possession of drugs. If you are deemed a habitual offender, you could be facing enhanced maximum penalties for your offense. For example, a felony of the third degree would result in 5 to 10 years in prison, a felony of the second degree would result in 15 to 30 years, and a felony of the first degree would result in 30 years to life in prison.\nYou cannot afford to go without a seasoned Fort Lauderdale criminal defense attorney.

        "raw_content": "One year down! Last March, I racked my brain and came up with 36 and a half goals I would spend the next 12 months working towards. I wasn't sure how much I would stick to the plans, to be honest, but having a public space to share accomplishments - and face non-action - definitely helped put the pressure on!\nClick on the side bar or this link to review full detail, but here's an overview on how I measured up and my lessons learned for the next round of goals (coming soon to a post near you!)\n1. I'm a pop culture over-achiever! I assumed 15 books and read 18. I assumed 120 movies/TV show seasons and watched 143. An interesting one: I said three museums and went to two, but I said two theater trips and went three times! That evens out, right?\n2. Some goals don't play well with each other. I had equal parts \"spend a lot of money\" as I did \"save a lot of money.\" Between booking international trips and trying to pay off a student loan, something has to give. I think I have the right frame of mind in recognizing I don't have to be paying more than double the minimum on the loans at the interest rates I have, when that money can be going towards life experiences like Egypt and Italy! Sure, I might be tacking on a few more months to the loans, but am still over two years ahead on them. Not bad at all!\n3. Sometimes life gets in the way and that's okay. I wasn't able to fulfill my web design certificate program - just two classes left though - based on class dates and my travel schedule and also a more pressing need to save money (house hunting alert!). Making over one of my parents' rooms also didn't come to fruition this year, but the good news is they are starting slowly on a basement bedroom on their own!\n4. A couple I accomplished were the ones I thought I never would. Driving a car and Running a 5K. If you knew me at all, you would never put me in the same category as those two activities. Sure, I don't drive on a regular basis and I might be waiting until this horrible winter is over before strapping on the running shoes again, but I am proud to say I did both of these things in 2010!\nYear One is in the can. Whew! Now I can figure out what goals are constants and what new ones to take on. Wish me luck!",

The machinist's craft is basic to all American industrial production. It is the machinist's task to interpret the engineer's drawings in order to fabricate new machines and products. Machinists operate various types of material-removing equipment such as lathes, milling machines, grinders, and computerized numerical control (CNC) machines. Upon completion of the POS, students will have gained experience to pursue post-secondary education and certifications related to the metalworking industry.\nPrinciples of Manufacturing introduces students to various occupations and pathways in the Advanced Manufacturing career cluster. Topics include safety practices and terminology; overview of manufacturing, including materials used in manufacturing, quality control, and the latest trends in advanced manufacturing; common hand tools; layout and measuring; blueprint reading and interpretation; overview of mechatronics and electromechanical technology; welding terminology and equipment identification; and career exploration.\nPrinciples of Machining I focuses on the essential principles that must be mastered for a person to be effective in production environments in the metalworking industry. Topics include career exploration; machine shop safety; measuring tools; blueprint reading and interpretation; classification of metals and the chemical and physical properties of materials used in the machining process; understanding the production design process; and quality control inspection techniques.\nPrinciples of Machining II provides additional instruction and practice in the use of measuring tools, lathes, milling machines, and grinders. Emphasis is on safety; interpretation of engineering drawings; operations and control; solving manufacturing-related problems, including scheduling, cost, materials, and equipment; and quality control test methods and techniques.\nManufacturing Practicum allows students to practice skills and knowledge previously learned while learning new skills relevant to their area of specialization. Students will create a professional portfolio that illustrates mastery of skills and knowledge outlined in previous courses and applied in the practicum.\nCareer and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) are an integral curriculum component of each Career and Technical Education Programs of Study (POS). CTSOs provide students the chance to see and experience what it takes to succeed, not just in terms of academic knowledge, but in terms of leadership, communications, and other \"soft\" skills that are the foundation of future success. Students who participate in CTSOs can experience the relationship between classroom and the business world; build business and community contacts who may become role models, mentors, and employers; lead, coordinate, and participate in school and community projects; and apply skills gained in a CTSO to their personal lives.\nIn the Machining Technology POS, the CTSO is SkillsUSA which is a national partnership of students, teachers, and industry working together to ensure America has a skilled work force. SkillsUSA's mission is to empower its members to become world-class workers and responsible American citizens. SkillsUSA complements technical skills training with building employability skills such as self-confidence, teamwork, communication, and leadership.",

        "raw_content": "FireEye Research Reveals Increasingly Global Nature of Advanced Cyber Attacks\nNext-Generation Threat Protection Company Publishes \"Advanced Cyber Attack Landscape\" Report; Finds 184 Countries Hosting Crimeware Servers; High Technology Companies Most Frequently Targeted; 89 Percent of APT Attacks Leverage Chinese Attack Tools\nMILPITAS, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 23, 2013) - FireEye\u00ae, Inc., the leader in stopping today's new breed of cyber attacks, today announced the release of \"The Advanced Cyber Attack Landscape\" report and interactive maps that provide detailed insight into the global nature of malware communication activity related to sophisticated cyber attacks. The research highlights:\nThe 184 nations that house communication hubs, or command and control (CnC) servers, with Asia and Eastern Europe accounting for the majority of activity.\nTechnology organizations are among the most frequently attacked.\nThe majority of Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) attacks -- 89 percent -- are associated with tools developed and disseminated by Chinese hacker groups.\n\"The threat landscape has evolved, as cyber threats have outpaced traditional signature-based security defenses, such as anti-virus, and permeated around the world, enabling cybercriminals to easily evade detection and establish connections inside the perimeter of major organizations,\" said FireEye CEO David DeWalt. \"The FireEye research puts in proper perspective the global pandemic of this new breed of advanced cyber attacks.\"\nCnC servers are used heavily during the life cycle of an attack to maintain communication with an infected machine by way of callbacks, enabling the attacker to download and modify malware to evade detection, extract data, or expand an attack within a target organization.\n\"The Advanced Cyber Attack Landscape\" draws from blocking more than 12 million callback events from 184 countries logged by the FireEye platform across thousands of end-user appliances during 2012. The FireEye platform is deployed behind firewalls, next-generation firewalls, intrusion prevention systems (IPS), anti-virus (AV), and other security gateways, representing the last line of defense against advanced attacks that bypass traditional signature-based security infrastructure.\nKey findings from \"The Advanced Cyber Attack Landscape\" include:\nCyber attacks have become a global activity - Over the past year, callbacks were sent to 184 countries. FireEye found that CnC servers are hosted in 184 countries -- a 41 percent increase when compared to the FireEye findings in 2010 with 130 countries.\nAsia and Eastern Europe are attack hotspots - Looking at the average number of callbacks per company by country, the Asian nations of China, South Korea, India, Japan, and Hong Kong accounted for 24 percent of global callbacks. Not far behind, the Eastern European countries of Russia, Poland, Romania, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Latvia comprised 22 percent.\nTechnology companies are highly targeted - Technology companies experienced the highest rate of callback activity associated with the next generation of cyber attacks. Technology companies are targeted for the theft of intellectual property, sabotage, or modification of source code to support further criminal initiatives.\nThe majority of APT callback activities are associated with APT tools that are made in China or that originated from Chinese hacker groups. By mapping the DNA of known APT malware families against callbacks, FireEye discovered that the majority of APT callback activities -- 89 percent -- are associated with APT tools that are made in China or that originated from Chinese hacker groups. The main tool is Gh0st RAT.\nTo review the interactive CnC callback maps please visit -- http://www.fireeye.com/cyber-attack-landscape/\nTo read the full report, \"The Advanced Cyber Attack Landscape,\" please visit -- http://www2.fireeye.com/WEB2013ATLReport.html\nFireEye\u00ae has pioneered the next generation of threat protection to help organizations protect themselves from being compromised. Cyber attacks have become much more sophisticated and are now easily bypassing traditional signature-based defenses, such as next-generation firewalls, IPS, anti-virus, and gateways, compromising the majority of enterprise networks. The FireEye platform supplements these legacy defenses with a new model of security to protect against the new breed of cyber attacks. The unique FireEye platform provides the industry's only cross-enterprise threat protection fabric to dynamically identify and block cyber attacks in real time. The core of the FireEye platform is a signature-less, virtualized detection engine and a cloud-based threat intelligence network, which help organizations protect their assets across all major threat vectors, including Web, email, mobile, and file-based cyber attacks. The FireEye platform is deployed in over 40 countries and more than 1,000 customers and partners, including over 25 percent of the Fortune 100.\nAbout this company FireEye, Inc.",

Nothing helped.\nNadal\u2019s movement was clearly limited, and by the end, he was walking with a bit of a hitch in his gait between points. At one juncture, he approached the chair umpire to complain about a late call from a line judge and mentioned in passing that he was going to have to quit. Soon enough, he did just that.\nNadal said he didn\u2019t know what kind of effects might have been lingering from his quarterfinal victory over Dominic Thiem, which lasted five sets and nearly five hours. He did have some knee issues earlier in the tournament, when he had it taped during his win against Karen Khachanov in the third round.\nFor del Potro, it was an odd way to return to an important summit. Nine years ago, he stunned Nadal in the semifinals, then Roger Federer in the final, to win the U.S. Open at age 20. He was considered a rising star at the time, but a series of wrist operations \u2014 one on his dominant right arm, and three on his left \u2014 slowed his career and kept him out of 2 1/2 years\u2019 worth of major tournaments.\nHe has returned to the height of his powers and the height of his sport, up to a career-best No. 3 in the rankings.\nAfter nearly two weeks of heat in the 90s, it cooled to the 70s, although the humidity was still at about 70 percent.",

The straight silhouette of the garment signaled an innovation in women's dress during the second decade of the 20th century. Unlike other periods, there is no large skirt, bustle, or exaggerated leg o'mutton sleeves to change the natural shape of any part of the wearer's body.

You see that the thing that was causing you pain was a small part of the sky, and you can now see all the beauty around it.\nGratitude is kind of like that. It is very easy to be distracted by a small number of negative things, painful things, difficult things, and to not notice all the tremendous blessings that we have.\nThis became clear to me after I posted this article. In it, I describe some things that people have said recently which were particularly hurtful. The response I got over the next few days really put things into focus. There are maybe 5 or 6 occasions recently on which people whom I thought were friends surprised me by choosing to listen to rumors rather than believe me, but five times as many people reached out to me one way or another to express support, and hundreds have expressed support over the past couple months, and that is really where my focus should be.\nI am deeply grateful that I have such a wide array of amazing people around me: Many wonderful people whom I have known for quite some time, and a surprising number of new friends whom I have only met since this crisis began, and who saw what I did and appreciate it.\nBut that's not all I have to be thankful for.\nI am generally healthy and active.\nI have the ability to support myself and my family in a reasonable lifestyle.\nI have a wonderful daughter who is absolutely brilliant and beautiful.\nI have a great wife who supports me in many ways.\nI work with a company of some of the best people I have ever met.\nI have an excellent game store right around the corner from me.\nI am well respected in my local community for the work I have done here.\nSo, really, things are pretty good.

        "raw_content": "Lisfranc Injury: Causes and Treatment Options\nCurrent News Lisfranc Injury: Causes and Treatment Options\nBy: The McGowan Institute For Regenerative Medicine | Category: Current News, Epidemiology | April 4, 2018\nLisfranc injury, also known as Lisfranc fracture, is an injury of the foot in which one or more of the metatarsal bones (five long bones in the foot) are displaced from the tarsus (a cluster of seven articulating bones in each foot situated between the lower end of tibia and fibula of the lower leg and the metatarsus. Lisfranc injuries are caused when excessive kinetic energy is applied either directly or indirectly to the midfoot. This foot injury is treated by McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine affiliated faculty member MaCalus Hogan, MD, Assistant Professor in the Departments of Orthopaedic Surgery and Bioengineering and Vice Chair of Education and Residency Program Director in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.\nDirect Lisfranc injuries are usually caused by a crush injury, such as a heavy object falling onto the midfoot, or the foot being run over by a car or truck, or someone landing on the foot after a fall from a significant height. Indirect Lisfranc injuries are caused by a sudden rotational force on a plantar flexed (downward pointing) forefoot. Examples of this type of trauma include a rider falling from a horse but the foot remaining trapped in the stirrup, or a person falling forward after stepping into a storm drain.\nIn athletic trauma, Lisfranc injuries occur commonly in activities such as windsurfing, kitesurfing, wakeboarding, or snowboarding (where appliance bindings pass directly over the metatarsals). American football players occasionally acquire this injury, and it most often occurs when the athlete\u2019s foot is plantar flexed and another player lands on the heel. This can also be seen in pivoting athletic positions such as a baseball catcher or a ballerina spinning.\n\u201cAnyone who is doing a lot of high-impact running and jumping, there is a risk there,\u201d said Dr. Hogan.\nTreatment options include operative or non-operative. If the dislocation is less than 2 mm, the fracture can be managed with casting for six weeks. The patient\u2019s injured limb cannot bear weight during this period. For severe Lisfranc injuries, open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) and temporary screw or Kirschner wire (K-wire) fixation is the treatment of choice. The foot cannot be allowed to bear weight for a minimum of six weeks. Partial weight-bearing may then begin, with full weight bearing after an additional several weeks, depending on the specific injury. K-wires are typically removed after six weeks, before weight bearing, while screws are often removed after 12 weeks.\nRecently, one of Dr. Hogan\u2019s 16-year-old patients underwent surgery to repair her Lisfranc injury. Today, after surgery and months of physical therapy she is back on the soccer field. \u201cShe was young, athletic, very strong. The chances of her returning were higher,\u201d Dr. Hogan said.\nWFMZ News\nWikipedia: Lisfranc injury",

        "title": "The Killer Bee and its Origin ~ MiWildLife",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb \u00bb The Killer Bee and its Origin\nThe Africanized bee known colloquially as \"killer bee\", is a hybrid of the Western honey bee species (Apis mellifera), produced originally by cross-breeding of the African honey bee (A. m. scutellata), with various European honey bees such as the Italian bee A. m. ligustica and the Iberian bee A. m. iberiensis.\nThe Africanized honey bee was first introduced to Brazil in the 1950s in an effort to increase honey production, but in 1957, 26 swarms accidentally escaped quarantine. Since then, the species has spread throughout South America and arrived in North America in 1985. Hives were found in south Texas of the United States in 1990.\nAfricanized bees are typically much more defensive than other species of bee, and react to disturbances faster than European honey bees. They can chase a person a quarter of a mile (400 m); they have killed some 1,000 humans, with victims receiving ten times more stings than from European honey bees. They have also killed horses and other animals.\nThe venom of an Africanized bee is the same as that of a European honey bee, but since the former tends to sting in far greater numbers, the number of deaths from them are naturally greater than from European honey bees. While allergies to the European honey bee may cause death, death and complications from African bee stings are usually not caused from allergies to their venom. Humans stung many times by the African honey bees can exhibit serious side effects such as inflammation of the skin, dizziness, headaches, weakness, edema, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. Some cases even progress to affect different body systems by causing increased heart rates, respiratory distress, and even renal failure. African bee sting cases can become very serious, but they remain relatively rare and are often limited to accidental discovery in populated areas.\nThere are 28 recognized subspecies of Apis mellifera based largely on geographic variations. All subspecies are cross-fertile. Geographic isolation led to numerous local adaptations. These adaptations include brood cycles synchronized with the bloom period of local flora, forming a winter cluster in colder climates, migratory swarming in Africa, enhanced (long-distance) foraging behavior in desert areas, and numerous other inherited traits.\nThe Africanized honey bees in the Western Hemisphere are descended from hives operated by biologist Warwick E. Kerr, who had interbred honey bees from Europe and southern Africa. Kerr was attempting to breed a strain of bees that would produce more honey and be better adapted to tropical conditions (i.e., more productive) than the European strain of honey bee currently in use throughout North, Central and South America. The hives containing this particular Africanized subspecies, were housed at an apiary near Rio Claro, S\u00e3o Paulo, in the southeast of Brazil and were noted to be especially defensive. These hives had been fitted with special excluder screens (called queen excluders) to prevent the larger queen bees and drones from getting out and mating with the local population of European bees. According to Kerr, in October 1957 a visiting beekeeper, noticing that the queen excluders were interfering with the worker bees' movement, removed them resulting in the accidental release of 26 Tanganyikan swarms of A. m. scutellata. Following this accidental release, the Africanized swarms spread out and cross-bred with local European colonies; their descendants have since spread throughout the Americas. Because their movement through South and Central America was rapid and largely unassisted by humans, Africanized bees have earned the reputation of being one of the most successful biologically invasive species of all time.\nThe first Africanized bees in the US were discovered in 1985 at an oil field in the San Joaquin Valley of California. \"Bee experts theorized the colony had arrived hidden in a load of oil-drilling pipe shipped from South America.\"The first permanent colonies arrived in Texas, from Mexico, in 1990. In the Tucson region of Arizona, a study of trapped swarms in 1994 found that only 15 percent had been Africanized; this number had grown to 90 percent by 1997.\nThough Africanized bees display certain behavioral traits that make them less than desirable for commercial beekeeping, excessive defensiveness and swarming foremost, they have now become the dominant type of honey bee for beekeeping in Central and South America due to their genetic dominance as well as ability to out-compete their European counterpart, with some beekeepers asserting that they are superior honey producers and pollinators.",

But it is worthy of talking about, because there are a number places out there on the web that will try and trick you into installing spyware by saying what you have is not working.\nIn many situations, if you have a reputable antivirus program installeld, you already have all of the anti-virus protection you\u2019ll need. Norton and Symantec both include anti-spyware detection, as do freeware and shareware applications, such as AVG Antivirus. When this is enabled on those applications, your computer will be regularly scanned and protected against visures, trojans, and all manner of malware.\nBe very wary of a website that opens a window telling you that you need to install some sort of spyware or antivirus because your system is infected. More often than not, a site that does this is trying to install malcious content of their own, and should be avoided.\nAs far as installing instances of anti-spyware goes. It is possible to do so, but you would suffer twice the system degradation as double the resources would be required for the program to run in the background. Another problem you may encounter is that the two applications would interfere with each other, perhaps to the point of becoming a serious nuisance, as they battled for supremacy on your computer.\nRetail antivirus VS Corporate antivirus - Friday, July 4, 2008 14:56 - 0 Comments\nWhy businesses should not use free antivirus - Tuesday, June 24, 2008 21:22 - 2 Comments\nFree online virus scanners - Monday, June 23, 2008 21:34 - 1 Comment",

        "title": "National Freedom Forum: The Republican Party & Gay Rights",
        "raw_content": "In order to build a Republican majority, we have to be more inclusive related to various interest groups in our country. While Gay Americans make up a very small percentage of our population, they are a very vocal minority group, particularly since the left wing media acts as their loud speaker. It is incorrect to say that Gay Americans are discriminated against in the workplace. In fact, various studies demonstrate that Gays actually earn more than the average American primarily because they tend to be better educated. So that is a non issue to the extent that it is happening; though there may be individual cases that warrant attention. I just don't see it happening in business today.\nThe really big issue for Gay Americans is the ability to marry, or perhaps more important to have all the rights afforded married people under the law. The reality is that other than all the hoopla that goes along with weddings and the religious aspects and history of marriage around the world, marriage in the United States is actually a contract between two people that is recognized under the law. That is the reason married people can't just say I divorce you three times, as apparently happens in some societies, to just end a marriage. Divorce is the dissolution of a contract and it can be ugly because of the emotion involved.\nHowever, use of the word \"marriage\" as defined by religious tradition and history as between a man and a woman is a sacred institution for many people. The words husband and wife are gender specific. This is the reason why many people are uncomfortable when two Gay men refer to themselves as husbands; or, two Gay women refer to themselves as wives. Strictly speaking from an English language perspective, it would seem more appropriate for Gay Americans to use the word spouse, or partner, however, what they choose to call each other is their business. To put this in perspective, if I were to refer to my wife consistently as \"my woman\" instead of my wife, or my \"old lady\" again instead of my wife, it might make some people feel uncomfortable because of the connotation. I only make the point to say that words matter.\nIn any case, other than a reference to the relationship itself, the word marriage as defined between a man and woman is sacred to many people, which is why many get riled up concerning Gay Marriage. Yet the reality is that if two Gay Americans choose to enter into a contract, a Civil Union, that replicates the advantages of marriage, why should anyone care. Yes, I know about the passages in the Bible that refer to Gay Sex as an abomination. But there are other passages in the Bible, as well, that would require all of us to be Kosher. I don't know about you; but I just love bacon, so no Kosher for me.\nObviously, two people of either sex can live together anyway, so why would any Republican care about a contractual relationship that is not called \"marriage\". We have to get over this issue. Gays need to get real too. Using the word \"marriage\" is poking many in the eye and as long as the rights of marriage come from Civil Unions, what purpose does it serve to do that to the majority population. In the broader scheme of things, while I am sure the issue of marriage, or Civil Unions is very important to Gay Americans that may be single issue voters, why should anyone else care about this particular contractual relationship. I certainly don't.\nAnd, there is some humor in all of this because with Gay Civil Unions will come Pre-Nuptial Agreements, Gay Divorce, Alimony and Child Custody issues. Anyone who has gone through a miserable divorce, something this Blogger has only seen from a distance with employees and friends, Gay Americans that enter into Civil Unions may rue the day they asked for this right. In any case, it time for Republicans to stop worrying about other people's contractual relationships. Civil Unions, without using the word marriage, but providing all the rights of marriage, should be the Republican position and the law of the land. Can we please move on to more important things like the potential economic collapse of the United States if we keep adding to our $16 Trillion National Debt.",

Core training exercises can do everything from aid in preventing injury to improving respiratory function, making it easier to achieve other fitness goals and to protect your overall health.\nYour core includes every muscle in the torso, including the stomach, back, and the muscles that wrap between the two. This provides the support for your extremities and your spine, and makes it possible for your body to move as an integrated unit. Therefore, by strengthening the core, you provide the rest of your body with optimal support. While looking good in a swimsuit is nice, this support is essential to living a healthy lifestyle.\nSo what are the specific benefits of core training exercises?\nImproves your overall balance and the coordination between the muscles in your core and those in the rest of your body.\nBrings your body into neutral alignment, supporting a proper distribution of weight and eliminating the strain placed on other muscles when they\u2019re put in a position to do more work, or work in a way, in which they aren\u2019t supposed to.\nProvides the spine, ribs, and pelvis with stability, three systems that are most essential to ensuring your organs are protected, yet the most vulnerable under force.\nSo while a good looking stomach can be an excellent motivator, keep these health benefits of core exercises in mind as well!

In addition to that preparedness reduces the efforts and resources we need to spare for the response after the disaster.\nConsidering the repeated flood in certain areas of Rajkot and Surendranager district, we have designed a Community Based Disaster Preparedness (CBDP) programme. The programme is designed to work with communities to increase their resilience to disaster situations and reduce the negative impacts of the same. The project would build upon and strength the community base which Navjeevan Trust has created through its various programs of animation and women empowerment. The programme will also aim to establish strong linkages with the govt., particularly at the district and block level. Since the programme works through SHGs & CBOs, this approach would make the service delivery of the govt. more effective and accountable to the people.

        "raw_content": "A subdural hematoma (Subdural hematoma) (SDH) is a form of traumatic brain injury in which blood gathers between the dura (the outer protective covering of the brain) and the arachnoid (the middle layer of the meninges). Unlike in epidural hematomas, which are usually caused by tears in arteries, subdural bleeding usually results from tears in veins that cross the subdural space. This bleeding often separates the dura and the arachnoid layers. Subdural hemorrhages may cause an increase in intracranial pressure (ICP), which can cause compression of and damage to delicate brain tissue. Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) has a high mortality rate and is a severe medical emergency.\nSubdural hematomas are most often caused by head injury, when fast changing velocities within the skull may stretch and tear small bridging veins. Subdural hematomas due to head injury are described as traumatic. Much more common than epidural hemorrhages, subdural hemorrhages generally result from shearing injuries due to various rotational or linear forces. Subdural hemorrhage is a classic finding in shaken baby syndrome, in which similar shearing forces classically cause intra- and pre-retinal hemorrhages. Subdural hematoma is also commonly seen in the elderly and in alcoholics, who have evidence of brain atrophy. Cerebral atrophy increases the length the bridging veins have to traverse between the two meningeal layers, hence increasing the likelihood of shearing forces causing a tear. It is also more common in patients on anticoagulants, especially Aspirin and Warfarin. Patients on these medications can have a subdural hematoma with a minor injury.\nSymptoms of subdural hemorrhage have a slower onset than those of epidural hemorrhages because the lower pressure veins bleed more slowly than arteries. Thus, signs and symptoms may show up within 24 hours but can be delayed as much as 2 weeks. If the bleeds are large enough to put pressure on the brain, signs of increased ICP or damage to part of the brain will be present.\nOther signs and symptoms of subdural hematoma include the following:\nA history of recent head injury\nLoss of consciousness or fluctuating levels of consciousness\nHeadache (either constant or fluctuating)\nWeakness or lethargy\nInability to speak or slurred speech\nAtaxia, or difficulty walking\nAltered breathing patterns\nDeviated gaze, or abnormal movement of the eyes.",

        "title": "PACE vs. PPAs or Leasing \u2013 New Jersey PACE",
        "raw_content": "PACE vs. PPAs or Leasing\nPosted on Saturday, November 16, 2013 AuthorJonathan CloudLeave a comment\nPower Purchase Agreements or PPAs are one of the most important business model innovations in the clean energy space. As our newest Advisory Board member Jigar Shah \u2014 who successfully pioneered the model as the basis for establishing SunEdison as an early leader in the solar field \u2014 notes, it represents one of the guiding paradigms of the 21st century, \u201cinfrastructure as a service.\u201d\nThe best infrastructure solutions generally cost more upfront and have lower operating costs. As with majestic bridges and well-planned cities, quality costs more upfront. This is also true for renewable energy solutions like solar and hydropower or vehicle solutions like electric and natural gas vehicles. Buyers have to pay more upfront and save on operating costs over time.\nThe way PPAs work is that the solar company finances the system entirely and then charges the user only for the kWh that it generates. The price, which is in many areas lower than the cost of utility-delivered electricity, covers all costs including maintenance while having enough profit to pay investors back with interest.\nThe customer loves this concept because they save the upfront investment and all of the maintenance staff needed to maintain [the system]. With an asset life of over ten to twenty years, customers can get access to the best infrastructure that saves them money over the longer term.\u201d\nIn other words, even though the system being financed may take several years to break even, the customer sees the savings right away, in the form of lower energy costs.\nA solar lease operates in much the same way, except with a fixed monthly cost to rent the equipment and often a guarantee of a minimum amount of production for less than the customer is currently paying the utility for the same amount of energy.\nIn both cases, however, \u201cThe benefits of owning the system, such as purchase rebates, tax credits, the ability to take depreciation, or other incentives belong to the PPA provider or leasing company,\u201d and is part of what allows them to offer the service profitably.[1] Many customers accept these terms because they lack the upfront capital and/or can\u2019t take advantage of the incentives; but most also realize that they could be paying even less if they owned the system.\nPACE provides this alternative. By financing the purchase of the system through the property tax mechanism, the building owner gets to keep all of the incentives and tax credits that come with owning the system, while still having a lower monthly cost than with utility-supplied power. In addition, while the \u201cliability\u201d is off the balance sheet, the value of the asset is recognized right away. The finance charges are treated as an operating expense (literally, the cost of borrowing the money), while the production cost savings accrue to the property owner.\nIn The \u201cOther\u201d Type of Commercial Financing, Daryl Zeis of REC Solar notes:\nPACE is a win-win for both the business that wants to go solar and the PACE lender. It\u2019s a win for the business because it can own a solar system with no upfront costs, get free electricity for 20 years, plus receive any available solar rebates and tax incentives. It\u2019s a win for the lender because the PACE loan is paid back through a special tax assessment on the business\u2019s property, which makes the loan extremely secure, even from bankruptcy.\nThe advantages for businesses include:\nNo upfront costs. Just like a commercial solar PPA or a solar lease, your business gets to go solar and save money on electricity without any upfront costs.\nEasier credit. Because PACE is secured through a special tax assessment, it\u2019s much easier for your business to be approved for a PACE loan than an unsecured loan. That means that new businesses without a long credit history or have low real estate equity due to the recession may still be eligible for a PACE loan.\nYou own the solar system. With a solar PPA, you\u2019re only renting the solar system for 15 to 20 years. You do save on your electricity bill with solar PPAs, but not as much as when you own the system. Plus, when you own the solar installation, you get to keep it running for as long as it lasts \u2014 typically 25 to 30 years, or even longer.\nYou get to keep the rebates and tax incentives. If your city or state has any solar rebates, you get to keep that cash, plus any tax incentives, such as the 30 percent Federal Investment Tax Credit. With a solar PPA, the PPA company owns the system, so it keeps the tax incentives, rebates, and any other incentives.\nIt\u2019s a long-term loan. PACE loans can vary by the lender, but they\u2019re typically a 20-year loan. That makes your payments small, and they should equal an amount less than your old annual electricity bills, especially when you include the free solar electricity savings.\nThe special tax assessment is transferable. What if you sell your business or want to move your business to another location? The special tax assessment will be transferred to the new property owner, who will continue to make any remaining payments through the special tax assessment\u2014and continue to receive the free electricity through the solar panels. In short, the solar system always stays with the original PACE property until the loan is paid in full.\nIn addition to being more advantageous than solar PPAs or leasing, PACE also applies to energy conservation measures and energy-saving equipment whose \u201cproduction\u201d is no less real but harder to meter. As a result, PACE can be used for a much wider array of energy and indeed other improvements, such the resiliency elements incorporated in A3898/S2632 currently before the legislature, with the benefits accruing to the property owner right away while the payments are spread out over the useful life of the improvements.\n[1] For a side-by-side comparison of PPAs vs. leasing, see http://www.energysage.com/solar-lease/lease-ppa-whats-the-difference.\nCategoriesCommercial PACE, Facts, PACE\n\u2190 Previous Previous post: Simon Property Group Arranges a \u201cOne-Off\u201d PACE Project in Ohio\nNext \u2192 Next post: New Jersey PACE / CRCS Now a 501c3 Nonprofit",

        "raw_content": "I came across a website last night called DearMe.org and it's a place where people write letters to their 16 year old selves. Since I'm now 29, I've learnt a lot since being 16 years old, so I though it would be cool to see what advice I could give myself, looking back. Perhaps some of it will be useful to some of you reading this.\nFirst of all, yes this is quite freaky writing to you from the future. If you're able to read this, somebody somewhere have invented a time machine and I've managed to put this in your hands. The world is a much crazier place than you now, or me in the future (as I write this) imagined. It's 2014 and you're now 29 years old. I'm here to give you some advice, and a little insight into the things I've learnt since being 16 years old.\nMost of the things you think are important right now, aren't. As soon as you leave school, you'll realise that. Whilst it is important that you turn up to school and learn so that you can pass your exams, the rest of the things happening in your life are totally irrelevant.\nThose \"best friends\" that you think you have, you don't. They are probably already talking behind your back right now. The minute they get the chance, they will stab you in the back. Don't worry though, whilst you're living your happy life in a few years from now, they are still trying to discover who they are.Karma is a b**ch... for them! Don't let it upset you, you will find real friends soon. Ones that will stand by you and support you, no matter what.\nDon't rush to meet a boy. You will kiss a few frogs before your prince arrives. Believe me, he's worth the wait. He will make your heart skip a beat and give you butterflies in your tummy. Wait for him.\nDon't worry about fitting in. Whilst it seems really important to you right now, as you grow up you will realise that every single thing that makes you different, is amazing. We were never supposed to be robots, we are all unique. Most people will conform to what they believe is \"normal\". Don't. Be you, stand out.\nYou may feel like your parents don't love you. They do, more than you will probably ever know. Just because they don't let you do what you want, when you want, doesn't mean they don't care. They're just looking out for you. Let them know that you appreciate it, and that you love them. Your brothers too. They will have your back through whatever life brings. Show them that you appreciate them. Your family are there for you throughout everything. Tell them you love them!\nNow, do the following:\nGet to the gym. Tone up, keep fit. You do it eventually, but no harm starting now!\nBrush your teeth more. You only get one set, look after them.\nThose spots on your chin. Leave them alone! You're doing more harm than good.\nStop buying blue glitter eye shadow. You don't know what to do with it. Leave it on the shelf.\nPut the mobile phone down. Go out and enjoy life more.\nDo not under any circumstances get a tattoo! You will regret it.\nFriends you make in the next couple of years online turn out to be true friends. Hold on to them.\nOther than that, the things you do right now made you who you are in the future. Keep it that way.\nOh and buy shares in Google, Facebook and YouTube!\nNatalie Y 6 October 2014 at 16:32\nOh wow, such a great idea! It's good to reflect back and learn from it. I'm gonna do this. Thanks for sharing :)\nThank you Natalie. I wish I could somehow have made 16 year old me read it. If you do this post, let me know as I'd love to read it. I'm now adding real technique brushes to my shopping cart, thanks to your latest post :)\nOh I wish I could do this and my 16 year old self actually read it. I would totally tell her to not worry so much boys lol\nIt would be awesome if we could somehow have had these kind of things to read when we were 16. Btw I loved your blog post about how often to blog etc... I promised to myself to blog daily through October and i'm struggling with inspiration and we're only on the 11th. I hope I last :)",

        "raw_content": "Last night at around 11:30 pm I got a text from Andrew. Come on up to 9-- in 15 minutes or so. I smiled and picked up my pager. It was the last night of 2012 and also the last time my husband and I will work simultaneous shifts at the hospital. Normally when I'm working overnight I head to the stiff cot in the chaplain sleep room by 9:30 or 10pm if the pager has been quiet. It's anyone's guess how many times I'll be woken up throughout the night to answer pages or go to codes, so it's a good idea to start trying to sleep early. Some nights it doesn't go off at all. I think the record for me is five pages between bedtime and end of shift at 8am.\nBut last night was special, and so I ended up ringing in the new year in an empty ninth floor hospital room, standing on tiptoe to see the peekaboo view of the Space Needle and its fireworks. Andrew was next to me and we stood with each other and the many residents, nurses, and medical personnel crowded into the room. Somebody passed around sparkling cider and another person found a youtube version of Auld Lang Syne to play from their phone. We all tried to be both jubilant and quiet, because new year or not it was midnight in an ICU and there are quiet hours and whatnot, you know.\nI usually write a goodbye letter to the year that has just passed. It's one of my favorite rituals. This year I'm finding it hard to do. Maybe it's that just in the past four months 2012 kicked my butt hard enough that I have no idea what to say about it. Or maybe I need to find a different way to mark the passage from one year to the next. I have a hunch that perhaps in a week or two - or maybe a month or two - I'll have a much better perspective from which to memorialize this past calendar year.\nFor now let me simply say this: 2012 didn't have one big moment that changed everything forever but the experiences I have had this past year will reverberate throughout my life, for the rest of my life, in powerful and permanent ways. I have learned so much about my family, my faith, and myself. A lot of that learning is ongoing, and it still smarts a little.\nThey say that whatever you are doing at midnight on New Year's Eve sets the tone for your whole new year. If that's true it's okay with me. There was something fitting about beginning my 2013 in a hospital, way up high, holding hands and looking out to fireworks in the sky.\nluna January 1, 2013 at 10:16 PM\nthat is SUCH a fabulous photo!\ntime and space can provide the perspective needed to process such intensity. I imagine the words will come, eventually. happy new year!\nSarah B January 2, 2013 at 1:13 PM\nHappy New Year! We had an early drink with our neighbors (like, 5 pm early) to ring in the new year. Not the flash or decadence of years past, but still sweet and meaningful nonetheless. I love the visual of the night staff gathering to welcome the new year - how fantastic that you got that lull to see it come and that you got to be with Andrew. Sounds memorable to me!\nHappy New Year - sounds great!",

        "title": "Irish Men",
        "raw_content": "Echoes of Irish History\nOctober 21, 2011 by National Hibernian Digest\nThe immigrant voyage of millions of Irish to America in the nineteenth century was staggering in its hardship. Many know of the Coffin Ships during the Great Hunger and the incredible death toll associated with the 6 to 8 week journey on inadequate vessels designed for hauling cargo rather than passengers. However, little known but just as significant were the tragedies attending those who fled the imposed cruelties in Ireland before the blight even occurred in 1845. Before that tragedy, mass emigration from Ireland accounted for one- third of all traffic across the Atlantic. Between 1825 and 1840, 220,000 Irish emigrated to the U.S. at a time when there were few maritime or immigration regulations in place.\nPerhaps none who ventured across the Atlantic seeking a better life had as tragic an end as the 100 Irish men, women and children who set forth on October 16, 1836 on the ship Bristol and the 116 who followed 8 days later on the ship Mexico. Little remembered today, both of these ships wrecked, with a loss of 216 lives, off Long Island\u2019s south shore within weeks of each other. The double-tragedy shocked all who read the spectacular headlines for months to come. The wrecks were among the deadliest maritime accidents in U.S. history up to that time. Their fates brought about sweeping changes in the government\u2019s neglect of the maritime industry, with measures to insure safer travel, including tasking federal ships with sea rescues which evolved into the Coast Guard. So many avoidable deaths so close to land and perishing so horribly, gripped the nation\u2019s emotions. Even Walt Whitman wrote about the event in his poem, The Sleepers, from Leaves of Grass.\nI look where the ship helplessly heads end on, I hear the burst as she strikes,\nI hear the howls of dismay, They grow fainter and fainter.\nThe Bristol departed Liverpool on Oct. 15 and reached the shores off Far Rockaway on Sunday, November 20 awaiting a pilot escort to guide them through the Narrows. Local boatmen acted as pilots bringing arriving vessels into port safely. Though licensed by the harbor, pilots were generally self-employed. The ship waited for a pilot to arrive, but the New York pilots, who had little regulation and cared less for Irish immigrants, ignored the captain\u2019s signaling, preferring not to work on Sunday! Later that evening, a storm and strong currents drove the Bristol toward Rockaway Shoals. The ship grounded and the captain told the passengers to go below and give the crew a better chance to work on deck. In about an hour, a tremendous wave struck. Life boats and everything moveable were swept off the deck. The hatches were ripped off and the vessel filled with water. Of the 82 steerage passengers below, none but a few close to the hatchways, were saved. Not a sound was heard; death was instantaneous as 60 persons swam unprepared, into eternity.\nThe Mexico left Liverpool eight days later but had a more difficult crossing, encountering storms and pummeling seas. She took twice as long as the Bristol, to reach New York. Arriving on New Year\u2019s Eve, Captain Charles Winslow signaled for a pilot, but callously, the pilots had adjourned to a Manhattan saloon to ring in the New Year. Winslow tried to keep the ship away from the treacherous shoreline while he waited for a pilot to respond to his signals, but currents and a storm carried his ship to the Long Beach shore. The ship was also overloaded with a cargo of iron bars and coal, which added to the difficulties in controlling her. To the owners, the passengers were simply another commodity, occupying a cargo deck leased to a passenger broker. The crew, weakened by the weeks of battling high winds and flailing seas, and hampered by freezing temperatures, lost both lifeboats in launch attempts. Not till 3 p.m. did a rescue boat reach the Mexico, led by 51-year-old local wreck-master Raynor Smith, who ignored the perils posed to his long boat and six-man crew.\nHe took in 8 survivors, including Capt. Winslow, 4 crew members, and 3 passengers who had volunteered to help the crew. The remaining famished and terrified passengers were left behind praying that the boat, or others like it, would return for them. As day turned to night, Smith, his crew and other would-be rescuers refused to risk another trip to the Mexico as the seas churned unabated. The weather was so intensely cold, that it was difficult for anyone to remain on deck longer than half an hour at a time. Fifteen minutes after the rescue boat had departed, the ship struck the bottom at Hempstead beach, not more than a cable\u2019s length from the shore. It is believed that none drowned, but all froze to death.\nA correspondent for the Morning Courier and New York Express later reported: When (passengers) perceived that no further help came from the land, their piercing shrieks were distinctly heard at a considerable distance, and continued through the night until one by one they diminished. The next morning the bodies of the many unhappy creatures were seen lashed to different parts of the wreck, embedded in ice. Of the 104 victims, two-thirds were women and children, all of whom stood praying on the deck of their broken ship in zero-degree weather just 200 yards off Long Beach where they slowly froze to death in sight of the land of their dreams. Only their tears made it to shore!\nFiled Under: Uncategorized Tagged With: Avoidable Deaths, Blight, Coffin Ships, Cruelties, Double Tragedy, Far Rockaway, Fates, Great Hunger, Immigration Regulations, Irish History, Irish Men, Leaves Of Grass, Maritime Accidents, Maritime Industry, Mass Emigration, S South, Safer Travel, Sleepers, Slider, Sweeping Changes, Walt Whitman",

We have been going for the past five years and the kids love it. So do we.\nThe kids created a blog this year so friends and family could follow their adventure. It was a hit! It was fun to chronicle the trip there from Toronto with stops in Montreal, the St. Lawrence River, and New Brunswick. On the way home we had a three day stopover in lovely Boston. We also stopped in Bangor, Maine, Portsmouth, NH and the Hudson Valley.\nLooking forward to returning again next year.\nMegan Carroll August 8, 2010 at 10:59 PM\nsounds like a great trip... I am moving to Boston... what is it like?\nI love Boston! I could easily live there. Lucky you! What neighborhood are you considering? We stayed in Brookline and loved it.\nJosh August 23, 2010 at 10:33 AM",

So much can happen in the next ten years. I honestly believe we are going to find the answer to all our questions about Anomalous Research, or at least a few of them.\nWhile studying the CLFI course lots of new things have been learned. Something Mike Jones said has stuck in my brain. Mike says it is possible that we generate the electromagnetic energy to fuel a haunting (sorry if I'm saying this wrong Mike) A few years back, in my earlier years as an investigator, I got curious about something similar. While with another group, I approached the leader and asked it if would be possible to conduct research on people's physical responses to \"contact\" events. I was thinking in terms of blood pressure, heart rate, breathing and other physical markers. I also wondered if it would be possible to document these events and get a record going on that topic. At the time, the leader said, \"That's a good idea Vickie, but it would be too time consuming and unreliable\", so I dropped the idea. My thinking has changed, thanks to Mike and one of my goals this year is to pursue Mike's thoughts while on investigations. I just wish I knew a reliable way to measure the energy a person generates and how. So the question is, \"Do we create hauntings or do hauntings get energy from us?\"\nVickie Gagnon's Blog Home\nVickie Gagnon (View Profile)\n2010JanuaryWhere do we go from here?\nBlog Created: Jan 6, 2010",

        "title": "Official Report - Parliamentary Business : Scottish Parliament",
        "raw_content": "Good afternoon. We will begin today\u2019s business with time for reflection, which will be led by Father Liam McMahon, parish priest at St Michael\u2019s in Glasgow.\nFather Liam McMahon (St Michael\u2019s RC Church, Glasgow):\nThank you, Presiding Officer, for giving me the opportunity to address members of the Parliament today.\nThis morning, as I drove here from my parish in Glasgow\u2019s east end, I reflected that \u201cin here\u201d and \u201cout there\u201d are two very different kingdoms. The Scottish Parliament chamber and the gifted people who inhabit it create a place of powerful possibility, which is an engine that bridges the gap between those two kingdoms.\nIt would be a missed opportunity to fall into one of two possible extremes: either to be so mired in the difficulties of people\u2019s lives that we fail to examine the possibilities that others bring to the chamber, or to become absorbed in the art of bureaucracy and forget that, if it fails in its purpose to change lives, it is useless. I humbly suggest that a middle way needs to be maintained and emphasise the inspiring example that parliamentarians can be to society.\nWhat values can we agree to hold in common? I suggest one: listening with an open heart. Pope Francis has said that\n\u201cpolitical engagement is one of the highest expressions of charity\u201d.\nHowever, in order to learn from someone else, we must be willing to listen to them, whatever their background, belief or political outlook may be. If we condemn them in our hearts before they have opened their mouths, we both lose instantly. We all need to insist on a respect for \u201cthe other\u201d, because then that powerful possibility is instantly recovered. We need to rediscover the gift of listening with a sincerely open heart.\nSt Paul\u2019s description of every individual believer as a necessary part of the whole body is helpful. The foot is completely different from the ear\u2014as each of us might be from our political opponent\u2014yet for the body to be able to work there needs to be some fundamental unity between those parts, no matter how different they are. Collective progress must be based on fundamental respect and acceptance that \u201cthe other\u201d is as necessary a part of society as we are. Together we must find some way to co-ordinate our beliefs and not silence anyone who is different from us.\nI encourage members to remember that, in your work, you are called to something inspirational and can truly be a light in the darkness of the struggles of people\u2019s lives. I encourage you to listen to others, especially when their politics are at odds with yours. Take your responsibility with hope and courage, but also with gentleness, as you hold the future of many in your hands.\nI commend to members the gift of listening with open hearts.\nTopical Question Time\nMcGill and Co Ltd (Redundancies)\nTo ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to assist the Dundee-based firm McGill, which has entered administration and announced an initial 374 redundancies. (S5T-01470)\nThe Minister for Business, Fair Work and Skills (Jamie Hepburn):\nThe Scottish Government is concerned that McGill and Co Ltd has gone into administration. Since being made aware of the company\u2019s cash-flow problems, Scottish Enterprise engaged closely with it and offered it assistance with a turnaround plan. However, McGill did not provide the required financial information in time for the appropriate due diligence to be undertaken.\nI also spoke with McGill\u2019s managing director throughout the process and offered my full support. McGill responded to my offer to speak with any of its major debtors, and I spoke with the one that it asked me to on two occasions. Unfortunately, McGill\u2019s trading situation declined, and a positive outcome was not possible.\nOur partnership action for continuing employment\u2014PACE\u2014team was present on 1 February when McGill informed staff that it was appointing an administrator. A PACE event to support employees will be held on 7 February in Dundee. I spoke with the administrator and Unite the union yesterday. The administrator is exploring all options for a sale of the business, and Scottish Enterprise will maintain contact with the administrator and look to introduce and assist any viable interested parties.\nWe will continue to offer support to those employees who have been made redundant, to support them back into employment.\nThat is possibly the most inadequate answer that I have ever heard in the Parliament. That is not my understanding of the situation at all. I understand on very good authority from McGill that it provided all that was asked for in a timely way.\nSome 450 workers will lose their jobs, and our thoughts today are with them and their families. They know, however, that this should not have happened. McGill is a company with a \u00a340 million order book. It is profitable, but it had a cash-flow situation. It went to the Government on 9 November, in the same week in which we heard that Michelin was closing, and asked for a loan. On 30 January, 12 weeks later, Scottish Enterprise went back to McGill and said no to that \u00a32 million loan to cover cash flow.\nWhen Prestwick airport received \u00a346 million of Scottish Government loans, with no indication of when they will be paid back, when Burntisland Fabrications can secure \u00a335 million and Ferguson Marine Engineering can secure \u00a345 million, why could McGill not get just \u00a32 million to save 450 jobs, when Dundee is reeling from the Michelin and HM Revenue and Customs closures?\nWho made the decision not to give McGill the loan? Why, given the scale of job losses in Dundee, did the minister not instruct Scottish Enterprise to make that loan available and save those jobs?\nI am sorry that Ms Marra feels that the answer was inadequate. She may have thought that she had it on good authority, but my answer is entirely accurate. The issue is that McGill had no historical link with Scottish Enterprise. It is not an account managed company\u2014the first time that it approached Scottish Enterprise or had any interaction with it was to say that it was in financial difficulty.\nAt that stage, Scottish Enterprise offered to support the company through funding KPMG to review the cash position and evaluate options, and it asked for a business plan. On 18 December 2018, Scottish Enterprise emphasised the need for a revised business and turnaround plan at that juncture. Unfortunately, the revised business plan did not come until some time after we were first approached and not in time for it to be given proper consideration through due diligence.\nI would regret turning the issue into some form of political knockabout. At the end of her contribution, Jenny Marra said that her primary thoughts were with the workforce at this time. I hope that that would be the case for anyone in the chamber. That is exactly where my thoughts and priorities are.\nOur PACE initiative has intervened quickly. We will have an event on 7 February, less than a week since the company went into administration. The task for us all now is to unite to support the workforce to get back into employment, not to engage in political knockabout on this most important issue.\nThis is utter complacency. PACE is for continuing in employment. Does Jamie Hepburn not realise the state of the Dundee economy? The jobs toll is running into the thousands.\nIs the minister telling us that companies have to be account managed to approach Scottish Enterprise to save 450 jobs? All that McGill was told, throughout the whole process, was that it did not fit the Government\u2019s model. The minister had 12 weeks to sort this out and to get his people in Scottish Enterprise to help McGill to save those jobs. He had 12 weeks. What kind of timescale is it when, in a commercial environment, the Government takes 12 weeks but then decides not to grant the loan? Why can millions and millions of pounds go to other parts of the country when Dundee cannot get one penny for McGill? Four hundred and fifty people are losing their jobs. The minister who failed to act should consider his position, given that utter negligence.\nMs Marra should have listened a little more closely to the answers that I gave. At no juncture did I say\u2014and it is not the case\u2014that a company has to be account managed if it is to approach Scottish Enterprise for assistance. The point is that, if a company has that prior engagement, it might be better placed to get earlier intervention if it is having financial difficulties. I am sure that Ms Marra understood that that was my point.\nMs Marra said that no investment is going to Dundee. We have just announced a \u00a3150 million city region deal, so the idea that we are not investing in Dundee does not bear scrutiny.\nThe immediate circumstances that are before us are that we have a company that, unfortunately, is not able to continue to trade, despite the best efforts of Scottish Enterprise and my officials and\u2014let me tell Ms Marra right now\u2014despite my best efforts in engaging directly with the company and some of its major debtors, both at my offer and at their request for intervention. Unfortunately, we have not been able to ensure that the company can sustain itself.\nWe will do everything that we can to get the workforce back into employment. That is our priority. We will do everything that we can to support the administrator in getting a buyer. I hope that everyone in Parliament welcomes that action and will collectively commit to it.\nShona Robison (Dundee City East) (SNP):\nI think that all members acknowledge what a difficult time it is for the people who have lost their jobs at McGill, and for their families.\nYesterday, Joe FitzPatrick and I spoke to the administrator, KPMG, and received assurances that it is actively looking for a buyer for the company. It should be possible to find a buyer, given McGill\u2019s extensive order book. Does the minister agree that that would be the best outcome for local jobs? What communication has he had with KPMG about the options?\nFinally, what support can be offered to the many apprentices at McGill\u2014I understand that there are about 75\u2014to ensure that they can continue their apprenticeships with alternative local employers? We need to focus on the workforce and the people who absolutely need our support at the moment. I hope that the minister can give some assurances in that regard.\nI thank the member and her colleague Joe FitzPatrick, who are the city\u2019s constituency representatives in the Scottish Parliament, for taking the time to meet me earlier today, at their request. I will be happy to speak to any member who wants to speak to me about the issue.\nI agree that our immediate priority is to support the workforce\u2014we have the PACE event on 7 February\u2014which, of course, includes apprentices. The adopt an apprentice scheme, which is administered by Skills Development Scotland, is a successful initiative whereby funding is provided to enable employers to take on an apprentice who has been made redundant, with a range of support for the employer and the apprentice. We will make every effort to ensure that apprentices are redeployed and can continue and complete their apprenticeships.\nAs I said, I spoke with the administrator yesterday. KPMG\u2019s priority on Friday was, rightly, to support the workforce\u2014that should be everyone\u2019s priority\u2014and we are at an early juncture in terms of the prospects going forward. Given that there is an order book, I think that we can find another buyer. We should set ourselves that task, and this Government is willing to do everything that it can to assist the administrator in that effort.\nI will follow up Jenny Marra\u2019s point. The minister indicated that there was a lack of time for due diligence to be conducted. Why was that the case if there was a 12-week process after the business first approached the Government? For what specific reasons was the request for support rejected?\nAs I have at least attempted to set out, there was a particular request at the time of the initial contact. There was some engagement with KPMG that was, I re-emphasise, paid for by Scottish Enterprise, not by McGill. At that stage, it was clearly indicated that a full business plan had to be made, but that was not provided until some time later. At that stage, according to the company, there was not the time for due diligence to be undertaken in the timescale in which it had to operate. That is unfortunate. If there had been time, full diligence would, of course, have been provided.\nI recognise that Mr Rennie probably has constituents who are affected by what has happened\u2014as will my colleague Graeme Dey. Mr Rennie will not have had the update from me, as I have written to the constituency representatives for the three sites and to the regional MSPs for North East Scotland, Lothian and Glasgow. I would be delighted\u2014that is the wrong word because of the circumstances; rather, I would be very willing to provide him with an update and to send him any information that he requires in order to update his constituents accordingly.\nBill Bowman (North East Scotland) (Con):\nI refer to my entry in the register of interests. I was a partner in KPMG in the past, but I have no connection with it now.\nThe Scottish National Party Government and the SNP-run council seem to be content to sleepwalk into a Dundee jobs crisis. It appears that the minister knew about difficulties at that vital local employer and did not act effectively. That follows the inaction on Michelin Tyre plc before its bombshell news about its intention to withdraw from Dundee. Rather than form a coherent jobs-first strategy for the city armed with early notice of difficulties at major local employers, the SNP seems to be content to cry crocodile tears after the fact. How is the minister arming the construction and manufacturing sectors in Dundee to avoid a repeat of these unfortunate circumstances?\nMy point about early notification has been made before. When we are in dialogue with a particular company, it will have approached us to look for our assistance. We offer every assistance that we can. There will be many situations that members will not learn about because the assistance has been successful and has allowed the company to continue. It would be entirely wrong for us to flag concerns publicly at that early juncture, because that would breach trust and cause further problems.\nOn support for the Dundee economy, I reiterate that the \u00a3150 million Tay cities deal will support up to 6,000 jobs and lever over \u00a3400 million into the city-region economy over the next 10 to 15 years. That is a serious commitment to Dundee and the wider area. We also have a significant pipeline of billions of pounds\u2019 worth of investment in construction through our infrastructure investment plan, which will support the construction sector. However, with the specific circumstances with McGill, my commitment right now is to do everything that we can\u2014and my clear effort is on that\u2014to support the workforce, which has been badly impacted.\nTo ask the Scottish Government what its response is to reported allegations of mismanagement and a cover-up at the former Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency. (S5T-01479)\nThe Cabinet Secretary for Justice (Humza Yousaf):\nThe Sunday Post has published details of an episode that sounds like a scene from \u201cLife on Mars\u201d. It involved chaotic filing; a stash of documents, from passports to credit cards and receipts; officers being sent to buy an incinerator and petrol; and documents taken to wasteland on the other side of the river to be disposed of before being burned in a car park. That all throws up serious questions. I appreciate that that happened in 2011, but has the Scottish Government asked anyone at Police Scotland for their version of events? Has the Scottish Government considered referring the matter for further investigation to the Police Investigations and Review Commissioner or to another police force in the United Kingdom?\nLiam Kerr (North East Scotland) (Con):\nDaniel Johnson (Edinburgh Southern) (Lab):\nThe Sunday Post\u2019s reports are worrying, because they reopen many of the questions about undercover policing. They also cast a shadow of doubt on the previous investigation into those issues. I heard what the cabinet secretary had to say, but surely there is a question about whether it is appropriate to leave the matter to Police Scotland. Surely we need an independent investigation into the alleged destruction of the evidence, and surely an external police force is required to do that. Does the cabinet secretary accept that now we must have a full and independent review not just of these matters, but of undercover policing as a whole, because of the questions that have been raised?\nForestry Strategy 2019 to 2029\nThe next item of business is a statement by Fergus Ewing on the publication of \u201cScotland\u2019s Forestry Strategy 2019-2029\u201d. The cabinet secretary will take questions at the end of his statement.\nThe Cabinet Secretary for the Rural Economy (Fergus Ewing):\nAs the Cabinet Secretary for the Rural Economy, I have a clear ambition for forestry. I want Scotland to have more trees and woodlands. The passage of the Forestry and Land Management (Scotland) Act 2018, with new powers and the full devolution of forestry, will help us to achieve that.\nTo fulfil one of the key statutory requirements of that act, I am pleased today to publish \u201cScotland\u2019s Forestry Strategy 2019-2029\u201d. The strategy signals the start of a new era for forestry in Scotland. We are building on the success of more than 100 years of effective stewardship and growth in forestry and woodlands. The United Kingdom Forestry Act 1919 laid the foundations for the thriving Scottish forest and woodland sector that we enjoy today.\nForests and woodland now cover nearly 19 per cent of our land, and Scotland plants more trees than anywhere else in the UK does. However, we want to do more, and Scotland\u2019s forestry strategy sets out our vision for the future.\nBy 2070, Scotland will have more forests and woodlands, which will be sustainably managed and better integrated with other land uses. They will provide a more resilient and adaptable resource, with greater natural capital value, which will support a strong economy, a thriving environment and healthy and flourishing communities.\nWe developed the strategy in close consultation with others. That consultation included a reference group that comprised representatives from the forestry, land use, environment and community sectors; a 10-week-long online consultation on a draft strategy that elicited more than 400 responses; and a programme of meetings across Scotland that involved more than 250 people from more than 120 organisations. I thank everyone who gave their time, expertise, views and knowledge to the process. I hope that members can see how those who were involved helped to influence Scotland\u2019s forestry strategy, which will help us to deliver its objectives.\nAt the risk of stating the obvious, I note that growing trees is a long-term business. We aim to deliver our 50-year vision through a 10-year framework that seeks to do three key things: to increase the contribution of forests and woodlands to Scotland\u2019s sustainable and inclusive economic growth; to improve the resilience of Scotland\u2019s forests and woodlands and increase their contribution to a healthy and high-quality environment; and to increase the use of Scotland\u2019s forest and woodland resources to enable more people to improve their health, wellbeing and life chances. To achieve those objectives, we have identified six priority areas for action, which provide the Government and all its agencies with a route map for identifying and resourcing activity.\nTo deliver our vision will require sectors, businesses, communities and professionals to continue to work together, therefore I am also announcing that we will establish a national group to advise on implementation. Our two new forestry agencies\u2014Scottish Forestry, and Forestry and Land Scotland\u2014will also focus on implementing the strategy, and we will develop a process for monitoring and reporting on progress, which will chart actions taken and their impact as well as measuring success.\nProgress and success will, of course, require funding. The Scottish Government remains absolutely committed to providing support for tree planting and woodland maintenance and creation, but we have had no such clarity from the United Kingdom Government on future funding streams. We know that contracts that have been entered into by the end of 2020 will be honoured, so we encourage everyone who is planning to plant trees to apply for and agree grants now. However, beyond that, we need the UK Government to share our commitment to forestry and to agree in principle to provide the Scottish Government with the funds that it needs. I hope that the Parliament will support our efforts to achieve that.\nForestry is undoubtedly a hugely productive use of land. It contributes \u00a31,000 million in gross value added to the economy; provides a home to 172 protected species; removes 12 million tonnes of CO2 a year from the atmosphere; supports approximately 25,000 jobs; and enriches the lives of the millions of Scots and visitors who live, work and play in Scotland\u2019s woods and forests. However, let me be clear: future development must work in harmony with other land uses. One of the key points raised in the consultation was the need to ensure that success in forestry does not come at a cost to other land uses. We have therefore ensured that the core principle of integrated land management, as specified in the land use strategy, is embedded throughout, to ensure that forestry, farming, tourism, conservation, community and recreational interests work together to help get the best from our land.\nThat requires appropriate leadership from Government. In my time as cabinet secretary thus far, I have taken decisive action to reinvigorate this vital sector, which is now seeing a period of great investment and optimism. Planting rates are on the upturn: last year, we had the best year for productive planting in decades. Meanwhile, we are also supporting the delivery of more than 3,000 hectares of new native woodland, thereby meeting a key biodiversity commitment. I am committed to meeting our targets for new woodland creation and to ensuring that we continue to manage our 1.4 million hectares of existing forests sustainably. This critical, renewable resource needs to be managed so that it sustains and increases the substantial environmental, social and economic benefits that it already provides, and addresses the problems that may have been caused by poor planting in previous generations.\nIn summary, there is great dynamism in forestry in Scotland at the moment. If our forestry strategy is to succeed, planting trees and maintaining and investing in woodlands and forests must become a shared national endeavour. I look forward to continuing to work collaboratively across all sectors to realise our vision and achieve our ambitions, and to involving the Parliament. The 2018 act requires the Government to report back to Parliament on progress that has been made on implementing the national strategy. I look forward to doing so and to reporting on how Scotland\u2019s forests and woodlands are increasing their contribution to the success of our country and its people.\nI thank the cabinet secretary for advance sight of his statement. I refer members to my entry in the register of interests that relates to forestry.\nThe Scottish Conservatives welcome the publication of the Scottish Government\u2019s new strategy. We broadly support its principles and ambitions and its focus on a sustainable forestry sector. We also welcome its long-term approach.\nGiven that the average lifetime of a commercial woodland is 30 to 40 years, it is surely right to set a 50-year timescale. We recognise the importance of the industry and note that, in 2017, planting in Scotland accounted for more than three quarters of all tree planting in the UK.\nIn relation to the cabinet secretary\u2019s comments on UK Government funding, I note the UK Government\u2019s commitment to protect the entire envelope of pillar 1 and pillar 2 funding until 2022, and suggest that he has the clarity that he claims he lacks. In any event, given that forestry is now fully devolved, that the Forestry Commission Scotland is wholly funded and that Forest Enterprise Scotland is partially funded by the Scottish Government, his own portfolio budget is plainly important.\nI want to ask two questions. First, given the Government\u2019s failure to meet planting targets in the past\u2014for example, in 2017, when it failed to meet its 10,000 hectares of planting per year target\u2014is the cabinet secretary confident that he can deliver 15,000 hectares per year from 2024-25?\nSecondly, given the increasing tension that exists between agriculture and forestry, is he confident that, with the increased targets, expansion of the forestry sector can occur without detriment to the livestock farming sector in particular?\nI welcome the support of Mr Cameron and his party for the broad thrust of the strategy, and I hope that we can proceed on a cross-party and consensual basis.\nMr Cameron said that the UK Government has guaranteed the envelope of pillar 1 and pillar 2 funding until 2022, but I say to him\u2014with due respect\u2014that that is not the factual situation. The factual situation is that the assurance that has been provided by the UK Treasury in respect of pillar 2 funding for forestry applies to contracts that will have been entered into by 2020, but it does not extend to 2022. Indeed, that was the very request that I made when I met Mr Gove at the beginning of January. I pointed out that the fact that the assurance in relation to funding extends only to 2020 is impairing investment at the moment. As I understand it, my interpretation is shared by Confor, which wrote to Mr Gove. I would be happy to share the correspondence that I have seen thereanent.\nI hope that, because Mr Cameron thinks that the funding is guaranteed until 2022, once he finds out that that is not the case, he will support my efforts to make sure that it is made the case without further delay. The current uncertainty is impairing investment right now, but it could easily be dispelled. Given that about half of the \u00a340 million in grants from the Scottish Government comes from Europe, it is plain that if Brexit takes place, that European proportion of the funding will need to be replaced.\nOn our ambition, I am working hard to achieve our targets this year. Mr Cameron is right to say that we fell short last year. That was not good enough, which is why I am determined that we will do better. Through the various steps that we are taking\u2014which I do not have time to enumerate, but which have been welcomed by the sector\u2014I am determined that we will achieve our targets next year. I have made that very clear to my colleagues Jo O\u2019Hara and Simon Hodgson, who is the new chief executive of FLS.\nMr Cameron also asked about the interrelationship between farming and forestry. He has a point\u2014the issue is undoubtedly a concern to some farmers. Others, who have participated in agriforestry schemes\u2014as more people are doing\u2014take a different view. I am pleased to assure Mr Cameron that such matters are dealt with in the strategy on pages 23 and 41, inter alia. There is an emphasis on integrated land use, which is about planting the right tree in the right place at the right time. For example, it is not appropriate, by and large, that trees be planted on prime arable land. I am sure that that would be recognised by all.\nThe matter that Mr Cameron has raised is an important one. I am pleased that he has raised it and am happy to give him the assurances that he has sought.\nI, too, thank the cabinet secretary for providing advance sight of his statement. There is nothing in it to disagree with, but there is very little detail on how it will be implemented. The document is an overview rather than a strategy; it is a strategy on how to form a strategy.\nThe Scottish Government has missed targets on planting and on biodiversity, but the strategy shows little leadership on how we could meet targets in the future. The only thing that is new is the national group on implementation of the strategy that is being set up. Could the cabinet secretary provide some more detail on that? What will the group\u2019s remit be? Who will sit on it? Will it be permanent or transitional? How will it interact with Scottish Forestry and Forestry and Land Scotland? More important, who will turn the overview into a strategy that will make a lasting difference to forestry?\nI was heartened by the first sentence that Rhoda Grant uttered, so let us focus on the positive. In all seriousness, I say that the document is a strategy and not an action plan or a framework for action. The inner leaf of the forestry strategy sets out three objectives, which I have read out, and six priorities for action. Plainly, I have agreed that we will report to Parliament on progress that we make, as we are obliged to do under the 2018 act.\nOn the group whose formation I announced today, we will make an announcement in due course, but it will include all the relevant key voices in the forestry world. Its purpose will be to help to inform, shape and benefit the action plan.\nI am delighted that we have made substantial progress in forestry in recent times. Last year, we had the largest amount of planting for some considerable time\u2014decades, I believe\u2014and I expect that we will surpass that next year. I am confident that, provided that we get from the UK Government a fair and reasonable settlement on funding, and provided that the doubt about funding beyond 2020 is dispelled as quickly as possible so that we can remove the question mark that is hanging over the industry, as it has argued is the case, I am confident in expecting that we will meet our targets in future years.\nI thank the cabinet secretary for providing an advance copy of his statement. I welcome the strategy document, particularly given that we need only get as far as page 2 to find a mention of increased native woodland cover, which is positive.\nI want to ask about reinvesting in the forest sector money from disposal of public forests. There are several mentions of the contribution to sustainable economic growth, but that point is not specifically covered. There is an oblique reference on page 40, which states:\n\u201cAny funds received as a result of disposing of land will be used solely for the purpose of carrying out Scottish Ministers\u2019 functions\u201d.\nWill the cabinet secretary give an indication of what that money will be used for?\nAgain, I am grateful for the broad welcome for the strategy document from the Green Party, and I am pleased that the strategy specifically contains the targets to which John Finnie has alluded.\nThe strategy sets out a number of objectives and priorities that encapsulate a range of activities. The objective to plant trees and restock is perhaps the principal one, but alongside it we have activity relating to recreation, tourism, renewables, health and wellbeing and mental health, so it is reasonable to assume that the funding that is available to Forestry and Land Scotland and Scottish Forestry will be usable for all those purposes and not only for purchasing land. For example, it could be used for mental health programmes to build on the good work in that regard, or to expand the renewables potential of our estate.\nObviously, the funding must be used for the purposes of the bodies, as set out in statute and in the strategy, but I can certainly give a commitment that the money will not be siphoned off and used for other purposes elsewhere. We very much welcome the fact that we are able to focus on those other areas as well as on the core objective of forestry.\nThe Liberal Democrats support the Scottish Government\u2019s forestry strategy, which is the right way forward, and we wish the cabinet secretary well in implementing it.\nOn the wider issue of future financial support, will the cabinet secretary ensure that a forestry organisation is asked to take part in the new group that is being set up to advise him on the long-term future of financial support for the wider rural economy post-Brexit, because forestry is an important sector?\nThe strategy sets out a welcome 50-year vision and high-level objectives for the next 10 years. Clearly, there is a lot of work to be done, particularly between now and 2070, when I will be 124 years old. How will the cabinet secretary monitor delivery of the plan and achievement of its objectives? In particular, I am thinking about the shortfall in softwood from 2030 to 2050, which is referred to on page 20 of the strategy document.\nI doubt that I will be around to listen to the excellent speeches that Mr Stevenson will make in his 124th year. That will be my loss, as must be apparent to everybody.\nTo be serious, though, I note that progress will be monitored in numerous ways. First, I already receive regular reports from the senior management of Forest Enterprise and the Forestry Commission, and that will continue to be the case.\nSecondly, there is, as is set out in the 2018 act, a statutory duty to report back to Parliament that it is incumbent on the Government to fulfil. As a result, there will be continued democratic scrutiny.\nAs for the problem of the dip in total output that is expected in the 2030s, which Mr Stevenson also raised, that is a result of insufficient planting in the past, and will be rectified best by improving our planting rates and meeting our planting and environmental targets. That is precisely what we are setting out to do.\nFirst, I declare an interest in a farming partnership in which the land in question has an element of timber.\nI did not think that I would be asking the same question as John Finnie, but I am delighted to do so. I want to push the cabinet secretary on the issue of acquisition and disposals, as set out on page 40 of the strategy. At the moment, we are disposing of more land than we are acquiring, with the money going on daily running costs. Can the cabinet secretary confirm that there is a level or percentage at which he will stop the sale of land? For example, will he stop the sales when we own only 60 per cent of what we have today? I should say that I broadly welcome the rest of the strategy.\nI hear what Mr Mountain has said, and I would be very interested to receive from him, preferably in writing, an analysis of the facts that lead him to reach the conclusions that he has voiced, because they are not as I would expect them to be.\nWe must allow the statutory bodies the freedom to act and go about their business with regard to disposals and purchases. Broadly speaking, the forest estate comprises 650,000 hectares, around 450,000 of which are made up of woodland. As a result, not all land owned in the forest estate is actually covered by trees.\nMoreover, that land is used for various purposes such as recreation, and I would also point out that more than 40 community sales account for some of the sales in that respect. We do not expect to get that land back, because the whole point of such sales is to benefit communities. Land is made available for renewables, communities, recreation and many other purposes, and the strategy recognises that it is correct for us to do so.\nI am very happy to come back to this issue, as I expect we will, and if Mr Mountain cares to go to the trouble of putting something in writing, setting out the facts on which he has based his conclusions, I will certainly look at it carefully and reply to him at that point.\nI thank the cabinet secretary for his statement and welcome the publication of the strategy. What consideration has been given to Confor\u2019s report, which recommends that a study be funded to assess the benefits of a strategic approach to significant new and continued investment in infrastructure and targeted funding for restocking and new planting in the north of Scotland?\nI welcome Confor\u2019s suggestion, particularly because it is right that there should be a focus on the northernmost part of the mainland of Scotland, which is Gail Ross\u2019s constituency. There is existing forestry in the area, but some of it is entrapped because of timber transport issues. I am very pleased that we have been able to provide very substantial support to address some of the pressures on timber transport and that that has been appreciated by the sector. It has allowed access to mature forests that would otherwise become windblown and, in some cases, potentially valueless.\nThe study will also recognise the potential for future planting and restocking in the north of Scotland and what will be required in that respect. I very much look forward to working with Confor and Gail Ross, who has championed this issue for her constituents, over the coming weeks and months.\nClaudia Beamish (South Scotland) (Lab):\nDuring the progress of the Forestry and Land Management (Scotland) Bill, there was constructive engagement with unions by Labour MSPs on the bill\u2019s complexities. However, union engagement does not feature in the cabinet secretary\u2019s statement or the strategy. How has the cabinet secretary engaged with the unions on the national reference group? How does he intend to involve unions in the national group to advise on the implementation of the forestry strategy and the further development of the land use strategy, which underpins the way forward?\nClaudia Beamish is correct that I made a point of engaging with the workforce representatives from the variety of unions that comprise the Forestry Commission trade unions. In fact, the member will be pleased to hear that I had a lengthy meeting with the trade union representatives just last week, at which we had a very useful discussion and I undertook to continue with that engagement.\nMy approach as a minister has always been to have sufficiently regular engagement with the trade unions to ensure that their concerns are properly heard by the Scottish Government. That is exactly what I shall continue to do and we shall give careful thought to what additional role the trade unions may be able to play. Generally speaking, my approach is that their participation is not a liability but an advantage.\nWe have five more questioners and only two and a half minutes; I ask for succinct questions and answers, please.\nWe have had evidence at the Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee that there was traditionally quite a solid line between farming on the one hand and forestry on the other. Does the cabinet secretary think that the two could be more combined? For example, hill sheep farmers would sometimes benefit from having some trees on their land.\nYes, I do. There is a substantial role for agriforestry. I am not a farmer, but I understand that agriforestry includes, for example, the creation of shelter belts that can protect against the risk of hypothermia in cold weather for livestock, which is a very serious problem on some exposed land. Agriforestry can also provide flood management options and, on an economic level, a form of diversification for farms. There is therefore a lot of scope for more being able to be done in agriforestry. I am determined to see what opportunities there are to make that as swift and smooth as it can be.\nI welcome the cabinet secretary\u2019s statement and the commitment to planting more trees and improving the sustainability of forestry in Scotland. As the Forestry and Land Management (Scotland) Bill went through the committee, I pushed for an amendment to place a duty on ministers to make arrangements for research into tree health and the promotion of cross-border sustainable forest management. Despite that amendment being agreed to, there is no reference in the strategy to what research will be done to ensure that our trees remain healthy, particularly in cross-border forests. What arrangements have been made regarding tree health research?\nAs we undertook to do during the debates on the Forestry and Land Management (Scotland) Bill, we have dealt with and are on course to fulfil our obligations in respect of co-operating with other parts of the UK and their Governments on forestry and tackling disease.\nI draw Mr Chapman\u2019s attention to page 33 of the strategy, which deals with the importance of tackling all those matters. He is absolutely right to allude to their importance, because there are very many serious diseases that can have a significant impact on forestry and have done so in the past. That is why it is important that we have a clear, strategic overview of how we tackle those matters, which is precisely what we have.\nMaureen Watt (Aberdeen South and North Kincardine) (SNP):\nThe excellent support that Forestry Commission Scotland staff have given as partners in the delivery of branching out courses in Forestry Commission woods\u2014for example, at the Tyrebagger woods near Aberdeen\u2014has highlighted the benefits of woodland spaces to people\u2019s mental health.\nHow has the cabinet secretary ensured that the voice, views and experience of people working in forestry and woodlands, as well as the general public who benefit from access to forests and woodlands, have influenced the development of the strategy?\nWe have sought to listen to those voices and Maureen Watt is quite correct to point to them. The point about wellbeing is covered on pages 26 and 35 of the strategy. The member refers to a particular course of branching out near Aberdeen. I agree that the branching out programme has been a successful and popular mental health programme. We have included the point about mental health in the strategy. It is an element of work that is relatively new for the Forestry Commission. I have spoken to some of the staff in the Perth office who will be rolling it out. They were really enthused about how recreation in the forest has been able to provide improvement and a sense of wellbeing for those who are suffering from mental health issues.\nBranching out is an example of the new ways in which we can use our forest estate to good effect, and I would like to work with others to see what more we can do to build on that successful programme.\nI apologise to Colin Smyth and Richard Lyle, who have waited patiently to ask their questions. I am afraid that we have run out of time\u2014we have gone more than two minutes over.\nOn a point of order, Presiding Officer. The cabinet secretary said that, from his recollection, he was not clear that the Forestry Commission had sold more land than it had purchased. The Forestry Commission\u2019s figures, which were published earlier, show that since 1999, purchases are at \u00a379 million and disposals are at \u00a3147 million. It is clear that that is the position and I would not want the cabinet secretary to have misled the Parliament.\nThat is a point of political debate, not a point of order. The point has been noted. However, information can be exchanged in other ways.\nVulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill: Stage 1\nThe next item of business is a stage 1 debate on motion S5M-15699, in the name of Humza Yousaf, on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill.\nI am delighted to open the debate on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill.\nI thank the Justice Committee and its convener, Margaret Mitchell, for the stage 1 report and I thank the Finance and Constitution Committee and the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee for their consideration of the bill.\nI extend my thanks to the many stakeholders and individuals who gave evidence. I was encouraged to hear so many speak to the benefits that pre-recording evidence can bring. Some rightly pointed out the challenges and areas where more can still be done to improve our criminal justice system for the most vulnerable witnesses. I am very aware of that, and it is one of the reasons why I set up the victims task force. I look forward to the debate, which I have no doubt will be positive and constructive, on these significant proposed reforms.\nI am grateful for the Justice Committee\u2019s support for the general principles of the bill and in particular its endorsement of the proposed new rule requiring the evidence of child witnesses in the most serious criminal cases to be recorded in advance of the trial. The committee made a number of detailed recommendations to which the Government responded yesterday.\nI will set out the principles of the bill and the positive changes that it will bring to the criminal justice system if it is passed by the Parliament. I will also address some of the key points that the committee raised. First, however, it is important to acknowledge the work of the Lord President, Lord Justice Clerk and the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service\u2019s evidence and procedure review. The review made recommendations on how to improve the treatment of vulnerable witnesses. It also involved wider stakeholders and creates a long-term vision for how evidence can be taken. It is also having a more immediate positive impact, in particular due to the new High Court practice note on evidence by a commissioner.\nThe bill would not have been introduced without the leadership of my predecessor Michael Matheson on improving how evidence is taken from children and it is a vital first step towards the vision that, where possible, child witnesses should not have to give evidence at trial.\nI turn to the main provisions of the bill. Evidence by commissioner is a special measure that allows for evidence to be pre-recorded and played at trial without the witness having to be present. The date and time for evidence by commissioner is scheduled in advance, avoiding uncertainty for vulnerable witnesses and minimising the distress that is caused by delays to the trial. The atmosphere is less formal than it is in full court proceedings and evidence can be recorded directly or via remote video link from another location. The early capture of the evidence enables the vulnerable witness to recall events more accurately, ends their involvement in the trial sooner and, when necessary, allows for quicker recovery.\nWe should not forget that evidence by commissioner can currently happen by application. However, the bill\u2019s main reform is the creation of a new rule that makes a presumption that evidence by commissioner will happen for child complainers and witnesses under 18 in the first instance. The presumption will ensure that, where those individuals are due to give evidence in the most serious of cases, that evidence will be pre-recorded, unless an exception applies.\nThe bill also introduces a power to extend the proposed new rule in due course to adult \u201cdeemed vulnerable witnesses\u201d in solemn cases, which could include complainers in sexual offence, human trafficking, stalking and, potentially, domestic abuse cases. I sympathise with the view that there should be a quicker roll-out to other categories of vulnerable witness, but it is vital that this major reform is undertaken in a phased, considered and effective way, by first targeting the youngest witnesses in the most serious cases. That is why the bill proposes a framework for the phased extension of the requirement to pre-record other vulnerable witnesses. The approach was supported by many stakeholders in the evidence sessions and I am pleased that the committee agrees that a phased approach to implementation is sensible.\nThe cabinet secretary is right to say that the evidence was overwhelmingly in favour of a phased approach, but he will also be aware that there was compelling evidence for the inclusion of domestic abuse cases alongside the cases that he has listed. Is the cabinet secretary minded to accept that and introduce an amendment to that effect at stage 2?\nMr McArthur has pre-empted what I was going to say later in my speech, but I am very open. I thought that the evidence was compelling and very powerful. Liam McArthur will be aware of the steps that the Government has taken in order to improve the awareness and the tackling of domestic abuse and, of course, of the provisions that will come into force in the spring. I am extremely open and I am looking at the implications for resources and so forth, which are important and cannot be ignored. I am minded to lodge an amendment in the future, but I have to do some more work in that regard. I will listen to what else members have to say on the matter.\nFurther to Mr McArthur\u2019s point, the cabinet secretary will be aware of the discussions around summary cases in general. Given that the vast bulk of domestic abuse cases are summary, is there a proposal to look at encouraging the use of similar techniques in those cases, given that it is possible for sheriff courts to do so?\nThat is a good point and I will look at that encouragement where I can. It is correct to say that the vast majority\u2014I think almost 94 or 95 per cent\u2014of domestic abuse cases are dealt with by way of summary proceedings. I think that Mr Johnson will accept that if we were to extend the presumption to summary cases, that would almost be the wrong way round. It is important that we apply the presumption to the more serious cases\u2014solemn cases\u2014first and foremost and that we focus on the most vulnerable, namely the youngest, witnesses in our society. Notwithstanding that, Mr Johnson\u2019s point is valid.\nCan I check how much time I have for my opening statement, Presiding Officer?\nYou have 12 minutes, but I am happy to give you a little more time.\nI said that without having my microphone on.\nThat is okay, I heard you.\nI know, but the world has to hear me, cabinet secretary.\nIn terms of the implementation of the legislation, legislative reform, as Daniel Johnson has just pointed out, is only a part of the work that is needed to ensure that there is much greater use of pre-recording. It is vital to ensure that there are sufficient modern facilities and pre-recording technology to enable this important reform to be implemented in practice. We heard time and again in the Justice Committee\u2019s evidence sessions that there is work to be done in relation to the facilities and the infrastructure when it comes to pre-recorded evidence. In October last year, I announced \u00a3950,000 of funding to support the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service with the creation of a new child and vulnerable witness-friendly hearings suite in Glasgow. The facility, which I have visited, will make significant improvements to the experience of victims and witnesses in the Glasgow area.\nWe have also made a further \u00a31.1 million available to the Scottish Courts Service and are working with it to upgrade other venues and technology. The funding is important to get the court infrastructure ready for the increase in the number of witnesses having their evidence pre-recorded. We have shared with the Justice Committee a provisional implementation plan for the staged commencement and extension of the rule requiring pre-recording. Before the plan can be finalised, it is important to see whether any significant changes are made to the bill during the parliamentary process that could affect it. However, once the approach has been agreed, I would be happy to share further details with the committee.\nI turn to issues that were raised in the stage 1 report. I was pleased that the committee supported a broad range of provisions in the bill. On the issue of cross-examination, I recognise that some legal stakeholders have concerns that the bill may enable a prior statement to be used as a witness\u2019s only evidence, even when the defence wants to cross-examine. The bill does not in any way limit or alter the right of the defence to cross-examine a vulnerable witness who has their evidence pre-recorded, and nor does it limit in any way the ability of the defence to test the evidence. However, I am keen to allay any concerns on the matter and I will consider in advance of stage 2 whether an amendment is required to clarify that point.\nLiam McArthur asked about domestic abuse cases. I note the committee\u2019s recommendation that the bill should be amended to include domestic abuse in the list of offences covered by the rule. I am open to the suggestion that the list should be extended to include domestic abuse offences in solemn cases and I will be interested to hear the views of other members during the debate. A number of stakeholders\u2014including the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, in its briefing, and many others, including, I think, Scottish Women\u2019s Aid\u2014suggested such an extension. I am open to that, but I think that we would all accept that it has some implications that I have to work through.\nThe committee welcomed the provisions in the bill that would require a ground rules hearing before the taking of evidence by commissioner. However, the committee asked that we consider whether there should be greater scrutiny of the questions to be asked at the commission. I can understand that, sometimes, it may be of benefit for questions to be lodged in advance. However, I am not convinced that requiring that in primary legislation is the best approach. I agree with Lady Dorrian, who said in evidence that in order to maintain flexibility, the High Court practice note is the more appropriate place to set out the detail of what should be required at the ground rules hearing. Again, though, I am open-minded.\nOn prior statements and additional measures to support vulnerable witnesses, the committee made a range of recommendations on broader matters such as joint investigative interviews and the work of the victims task force. I will ensure that those recommendations are discussed at the next meetings of the task force and the joint investigative interviews governance and working groups. My response to the committee highlighted the significant on-going work to improve the quality of JIIs, which should enable them to be used even more frequently as part of a child\u2019s pre-recorded evidence.\nThe committee made a number of recommendations relating to the implementation of the barnahus principles in Scotland, and I am happy to accept its invitation to discuss those matters. Many committee members travelled to Norway to see for themselves barnahus in practice. The barnahus concept is about much more than evidence and the justice process. It supports a child\u2019s recovery from the point at which they disclose abuse, as well as supporting their right to justice. Accordingly, any move to implement the barnahus model would need to look at all those issues holistically. It is also accepted by most, if not all, members of the committee that every barnahus, whichever jurisdiction it is in, should be relevant to that jurisdiction. Tweaks and appropriate nuances may therefore be needed so that, collectively, we come up with what we think is a Scottish barnahus approach and have a road map to that destination.\nI strongly believe that the justice system should be compassionate, trauma-informed and able to respond effectively to the needs of victims and witnesses. There have been significant changes in recent years to the criminal justice system to recognise the interests of those groups. However, more can be done, and I am determined that more should be done, to support child and other vulnerable witnesses, and I am confident that the bill is a major step towards achieving that. I look forward to the rest of the debate and to hearing the views of members across the chamber.\nThat the Parliament agrees to the general principles of the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill.\nBefore I move on, I ask members who have not yet pressed their request-to-speak buttons to do so now. I call Margaret Mitchell to speak on behalf of the Justice Committee. Convener, you have nine minutes.\nIt is a pleasure to speak on behalf of the Justice Committee in today\u2019s stage 1 debate on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill, and I thank all those who gave evidence to the committee. The committee thanks Lady Dorrian and the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service staff for arranging visits for members to see the current arrangements for pre-recording evidence. Our grateful thanks also go to all at the barnahus in Oslo, for the time that they spent with us during our visit to the facility in December. That first-hand experience was invaluable for scrutinising the bill and forming a longer-term view of the changes that are required to improve the experience of child witnesses. I thank the Justice Committee clerks and committee members for their hard work in producing the report.\nLegislation already allows for a child or vulnerable witness\u2019s evidence to be recorded in advance of a criminal trial. However, despite an increase in pre-recording, it is still not common practice. The committee therefore supports the bill\u2019s new rule, which would generally require all of a child\u2019s evidence in the most serious cases to be pre-recorded. Removing children and vulnerable witnesses from the court environment and the traditional examination in chief and cross-examination has several advantages: it reduces their distress and trauma; it improves the quality of their evidence, because taking evidence earlier in the process aids their ability to recall events; and it allows them to get on with their lives.\nCrucially, undue delay is avoided, the potential consequences of which Barnardo\u2019s has set out compelling evidence about. Some young people who were 14 when they had offences committed against them were 16 and a half by the time they presented in court. Barnardo\u2019s states:\n\u201cBecause of the trauma that they have experienced, they can be involved in a lot of behaviours ... not seen to be positive. What the court sees is a difficult, belligerent, drug-addicted, alcoholic young person instead of the child they were when the offences happened.\u201d\nNevertheless, the committee fully recognises that the new rule will have major implications for our adversarial criminal justice system. Not only will it require sufficient facilities and technology to pre-record evidence; more significantly, there will need to be a shift in legal practice and culture. The committee therefore agrees with the Scottish Government that a phased approach to implementation is sensible. Given the importance of getting this right, the committee recommends that progression between phases should be based on careful and detailed evaluation.\nThe committee agrees that the initial phase should focus on child witnesses in the most serious cases. However, following powerful evidence about the pressures that children can experience when giving evidence in domestic abuse cases, it urges the Scottish Government to amend the bill to include those cases in the new rule. The cabinet secretary\u2019s comments and his confirmation in today\u2019s debate that he will listen to views on that subject are very welcome.\nThe committee also supports the phased extension of the new rule to other serious offences and to adults who are deemed to be vulnerable witnesses, which the bill provides for through affirmative regulations. It is crucial that there be sufficient parliamentary scrutiny of the regulations, preferably before they are introduced. The committee welcomes the cabinet secretary\u2019s willingness to share information that was gathered during the evaluation of earlier phases of implementation and asks to be provided with early notification of the Government\u2019s intention to lay regulations extending the rule. Members must be able to consider whether the necessary technology and facilities are in place to cope with any extension of the rule and whether any lessons can be learned from earlier phases of implementation.\nIn view of those undertakings, and on balance, the committee considers that the approach outlined in the bill is appropriate to allow vulnerable witnesses to benefit from the provisions without any delay caused by primary legislation being required, although that does not preclude the possibility of the committee recommending that an extension of the rule be provided for in primary legislation if that is deemed necessary.\nThe committee accepted the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland\u2019s comment that\n\u201ca bad interview done early is no better than a bad interview done in a trial.\u201d\u2014[Official Report, Justice Committee, 27 November 2018; c 33.]\nThe committee therefore recommended that all those who are involved in questioning child and vulnerable witnesses receive appropriate trauma-informed training, and the committee seeks assurances from the cabinet secretary that sufficient resources will be in place to deliver that training.\nIn addition, the committee considers that there should be measures in place to protect witnesses against the risks of harassment and further victimisation throughout the process, including after they have given evidence and proceedings have concluded. That is immensely important not only to protect individuals from harm but to ensure that other potential witnesses are not deterred from giving evidence. The committee welcomes the establishment of the new victim taskforce to look at that issue in detail.\nThe committee was unanimous in its strong support for implementing the barnahus principles in Scotland. During our visit to the barnahus in Oslo, we saw that the facility, which is located away from the court, is child friendly and provides a range of support services under one roof. Crucially, the visit allowed the committee to understand the one forensic interview approach, whereby the child is interviewed by a highly trained police officer, with no direct questioning by lawyers. However, the rights of the accused are protected by allowing the defence to request a supplementary interview when that is necessary. That interview is carried out by the same police interviewer, who asks the defence\u2019s additional questions to test the child\u2019s evidence. The one forensic interview approach delivers benefits both in the quality of the evidence that is obtained and in supporting children\u2019s recovery from trauma.\nThe committee realises that that approach would require a significant shift in legal culture and practice, as well as substantial resources, but the committee considers that it could be used in appropriate cases. Furthermore, no less a person than the Lord Justice Clerk, Lady Dorrian, has said that she sees no reason why the barnahus system cannot be adopted in Scotland in the longer term.\nIn the meantime, priority should be given to developing an enhanced process for joint police and social work interviews with children, to be conducted by highly trained interviewers in child-friendly facilities, with other support services available under one roof. That would deliver significant benefits for child witnesses and would be a meaningful step towards implementing the barnahus principles.\nThe Justice Committee unanimously supports the general principles of the bill and its aim to increase the use of pre-recorded evidence. Nonetheless, it is evident that a barnahus model is far removed from current practice in Scotland. The committee therefore calls on the Scottish Government to work towards adapting the one forensic interview approach and recommends that urgent action be taken to adopt elements of the barnahus principles and to ensure that progress is made within the current parliamentary session to drive forward efforts to fully implement those principles in the longer term.\nI am very pleased to close for the Scottish Conservatives and speak in favour of the principles\u2014[Interruption.]\nI think that you are opening for the Conservatives, Mr Kerr.\nLiam Kerr:\nI am pleased to open, as well as close\u2014[Laughter.]\u2014the debate for the Scottish Conservatives and speak in favour of the principles of the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill.\nAt the outset, I echo the convener\u2019s gratitude to the clerks, not only for the quality of the report, which succinctly and clearly reflects the key points and the committee\u2019s examination of the bill, but because, contrary to initial concerns, they had not shredded the draft that I left with them, which had all today\u2019s speaking notes scribbled on it\u2014although, having begun by saying that I was closing, I might wish that they had shredded it after all.\nThe fundamental principle of the bill is one that, as the convener said, the committee and the Scottish Conservatives are united behind. At its core, the bill is about improving the experience and evidential reliability of children and vulnerable witnesses in the criminal justice system. It does that by increasing the use of pre-recorded evidence.\nWhen a child witness\u2014the bill notably and rightly excludes a child accused\u2014is to give evidence in solemn criminal proceedings involving one of a set list of offences such as murder, culpable homicide, assault to the danger of life or human trafficking, the court must enable all their evidence to be given in advance of the hearing. In other words, in an extension to the protections that are already in place, in those cases all the child\u2019s evidence will be given in advance.\nAs the convener set out, that was pretty much universally agreed to be a good thing. The Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service described it as\n\u201ca critical step in improving both the experience of witnesses and the quality of justice\u201d.\nIn that regard, I found compelling the evidence of Children 1st that\n\u201cScotland\u2019s justice system\u2014designed for adults and rooted in the Victorian era\u2014often causes them greater trauma and harm.\u201d\nNotable, too, was the SCTS\u2019s \u201cEvidence and procedure review\u201d, in which it was suggested that\n\u201cparticularly for young and vulnerable witnesses, traditional examination and cross-examination techniques ... are a poor way of eliciting comprehensive, reliable and accurate accounts\u201d.\nSome witnesses and MSPs feel that we should go further, and we may well hear about that in the debate. Certainly, the committee concluded that there would be merit in expanding the rule requiring pre-recording to child witnesses in domestic abuse cases. That makes sense, as the cabinet secretary noted. A number of submissions made that point, too. One would have thought that it stands to reason that the potential, almost special, nature of the trauma to a child in such cases, as highlighted in evidence from Scottish Women\u2019s Aid, would mandate such special measures. That is particularly the case, given that, logically and as suggested by the advocacy, support, safety, information and services together project, the new Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018 could lead to greater numbers of children being cited to give evidence. I agree with Liam McArthur that there seems to be merit in including child witnesses in such cases. I am encouraged by the cabinet secretary\u2019s response to Liam McArthur\u2019s intervention, in which he stated his willingness to consider the proposal, and I look forward to developments at stage 2.\nI have looked at the figures, and although domestic abuse cases that go to solemn proceedings make up only 4 per cent of the total, that equals about 150 High Court cases and 750 sheriff and jury cases.\nI am absolutely open-minded to the suggestion, but does Liam Kerr agree that, given the number of cases involved, it is undoubtedly important for the Government and others to examine the resource implications of making that potential change?\nI agree with the cabinet secretary that the resource implications are crucial. I will say something specific about that shortly, but I will track back slightly before I do so.\nOn the same theme, in an intervention, Daniel Johnson brought up what is potentially a key issue. In its submission, the NSPCC suggested that, as only a few cases of domestic violence go to solemn proceedings, there is a danger that, by excluding summary proceedings, we exclude child witnesses in domestic abuse cases. Like Daniel Johnson, I find that concerning.\nI note that the Lord Advocate has presented a response in which he specifically addresses the point. If I do not respond to the cabinet secretary\u2019s intervention in two seconds, I ask him to reiterate some of those concerns, which were well expressed by Daniel Johnson.\nDuring our evidence sessions, the suggestion was made\u2014I suspect that it will be repeated in the debate today\u2014that we should go further, particularly in relation to adults who are deemed to be vulnerable witnesses, and that we should expand the categories of people who would be covered by the provisions on pre-recording and automatic special measures. The bill gives ministers the power to do that, but the cabinet secretary indicated that that would involve a long timeline. His approach is supported by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, which felt that it would be appropriate to take evidence-based, deliberate decisions over time on expanding the categories.\nI accept that that approach will cause understandable frustration, but I agree with the cabinet secretary that it makes sense. The bill makes a seismic change that goes to the heart of the criminal justice system. The cabinet secretary highlighted his concern that quicker expansion may overwhelm the system.\nIt seems vital that whatever we put in place is introduced in a managed way that takes account of what will be a cultural paradigm shift, as highlighted by the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service in particular.\nA significant cost seems to be involved: the financial memorandum estimates the annual recurring costs of the bill\u2019s provisions to be up to \u00a33.5 million. The maximum estimated cost of extending the new rule to all adults who are deemed vulnerable witnesses is around \u00a314 million.\nThe committee concluded that a phased approach is sensible\u2014I agree with it on that point. To try to implement everything at once could be counterproductive. We might end up in a worse place than the one in which we started, with an inefficient and ineffective approach and the potential for miscarriages of justice.\nOn that point, I will pick up on a point that the convener made. The ability to expand the categories of protection by regulation caused me some consternation. My concern was whether, given that this is a managed but significant change to the system, expansion of categories by regulation affords sufficient opportunity for scrutiny. The Faculty of Advocates, in particular, expressed concern about that.\nThe committee heard a great deal of evidence on that point. The cabinet secretary noted that primary legislation could cause delay. In my view, delaying matters to get them right is never a bad thing. However, it was reassuring to hear the cabinet secretary promise to share the evaluation evidence with the committee prior to scrutiny of any such regulations. We also received an undertaking in that regard in the Government\u2019s response yesterday.\nToday, the Parliament is asked to indicate whether it supports the principles of the bill. The Justice Committee\u2019s report provides strong evidence\u2014as, no doubt, will today\u2019s debate\u2014that the principles of the bill are the right ones. It is clear that pre-recording evidence of children and adult vulnerable witnesses reduces the distress that such witnesses go through and can help to ensure that the most accurate evidence is obtained.\nThroughout our evidence gathering, it was clear that the bill is a start and that there are other areas into which protection of vulnerable witnesses might go. I look forward to hearing representations from colleagues across the Parliament in that regard.\nI am pleased to confirm that the Scottish Conservatives will support the principles of the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill at decision time.\nThis is a useful and important debate, in which we can come together in agreement about how we can modernise and improve our justice system, to make it more effective and more humane.\nI, too, thank the Justice Committee clerks and my fellow committee members. I also thank the numerous organisations who submitted evidence, orally and in writing, to the committee\u2014without their efforts we simply could not do our work.\nIn particular, I thank the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service, because the opportunity to see facilities and hear about how evidence on commission is taken was hugely important. I also thank the Norwegian police for the time that they took to show us the barnahus model that operates in Norway.\nAbove all, I thank Lady Dorrian, because the bill represents a substantial amount of her work and effort. She first made the proposals in 2015; broader reforms were initiated in 2013. Her practice note, which has meant that evidence is being taken on commission, was produced in 2017. We should not underestimate the time that it has taken to get here.\nThe bill\u2019s provisions undoubtedly represent a useful step forward for the Scottish judicial and court system and will improve the experience of child witnesses. As a number of members have said, we must not retraumatise young people who give evidence in court. It is vital that they give evidence; it is equally vital that we ensure that they do so in a way that does not retraumatise them.\nMore important, the bill is about improving the quality of evidence that is given by reducing the time that it takes to take evidence\u2014the committee heard that it takes considerably less time when a witness provides their evidence on commission\u2014and by reducing stress. That will improve the accuracy and quality of the evidence that is given.\nFor those reasons, Labour supports the bill at stage 1.\nIt is important that we examine the provisions and consider how the bill might be improved. Moreover, we should consider the next steps that we can take to improve our justice system. Therefore, I want to talk about how we ensure that the interests of the child are best met; the investment that is required; and the possible extension of the provisions to other types of witness and other types of hearing.\nThe ground rules hearing is absolutely central to the proposals on protecting the interests of the child. The prosecution and the defence will set out how they will cross-examine the witness and draw out the evidence for the court through the ground rules hearing. There will still be cross-examination\u2014we saw that in examples of evidence taken on commission when the committee went to the High Court. The ground rules hearing will ensure that things are conducted in a way that is humane and effective in gathering evidence.\nIt struck me that the process will be very reliant on the training and practice of the advocates who will conduct the evidence gathering. Although the ground rules hearing is important and it is right that we do not overburden the bill with provisions or requirements, we must understand the dependency on the ground rules hearings being conducted properly and recognise that they rely on agreement. Trust is involved. We will trust the advocates to take their duties seriously and responsibly. We must review how the process is carried out to ensure that it is not abused and does not go in directions that were not foreseen. Although advocates in the main may approach matters in the way that we would hope, the intention at the point of legislating can sometimes result in practice that was not intended. Therefore, we need to keep the process under examination.\nWe must also ensure that there is adequate support and that a common point of contact is provided to vulnerable witnesses, particularly children. A number of third sector organisations made that point. Should we have a much more proactive and positive duty at the ground rules hearing to look at what sort of support is provided to witnesses who are providing evidence that is taken on commission?\nMuch has already been made of the requirement to have a phased approach and why that is necessary, given the investment and the undertaking that the bill represents. I agree with what has been said. The Government is right to look at a phased approach. As Liam Kerr pointed out, it is critical that we get this right and that we take our time to do so. However, we must ensure that investment takes place. When I looked at the room that is used in Parliament house, I was struck by the fact that it is still essentially a conference room in a court building and that it falls far short of the child-friendly environment that we might wish for. I welcome the investment in a new evidence suite in Glasgow, but will we make such facilities available to every child who gives evidence in Scotland, wherever they may do so? We need to ensure that there is consistent access for vulnerable witnesses.\nWe must also focus on training, legal practice and culture. The investment cannot simply be in technology and spaces.\nI want to briefly mention domestic abuse. Although I welcome the cabinet secretary\u2019s comments, if the bill is about establishing a principle on the right way to take evidence from vulnerable witnesses, why does it not provide for at least the possibility of extending the provisions to summary cases? I understand the arguments and the restrictions in respect of investment and the requirements that exist, but if the principle is right and the strategy that has already been set out in the bill is for staged implementation, should not provision for that final extension to summary cases be provided for? The Government should certainly look at ways in which the practice is encouraged in sheriff courts, because it is possible for them to take evidence in that way.\nI am running out of time. I, too, am opening and closing for my party, so I will get a second chance to get in the bits of my speech that I have not managed to get in, which I am very thankful for.\nThe bill is a significant step forward. It takes the right approach in its proposals and how they will be implemented. However, we must always challenge, so we must seek to go further in the bill and in future steps that we can take with our court system in Scotland.\nI should clarify that Gordon Lindhurst will close for the Conservatives. He was looking a bit peeved.\nLike my Justice Committee colleagues, I thank witnesses and parliamentary staff, various organisations for their briefings and our friends in Norway for their helpful advice.\nAs I hope that the committee report evidences, there has been detailed scrutiny of the Government\u2019s proposals. There are a couple of recurring themes. One theme, which I hope to talk about in a bit more detail later, is the tension between the adversarial system as applied at the moment and the inquisitorial system that is more in keeping with the proposals in the bill. The other is the rights of witnesses and the accused.\nThe Scottish Green Party will unequivocally support the bill at stage 1.\nI take us back to the case for reform as outlined in the committee\u2019s report. We highlighted the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service\u2019s \u201cEvidence and Procedure Review Report\u201d, which is from 2015. I make no apologies for this long quote, because it is helpful. The Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service report says:\n\u201cIt is now widely accepted that taking the evidence of young and vulnerable witnesses requires special care, and that subjecting them to the traditional adversarial form of examination and cross-examination is no longer acceptable.\u201d\n\u201crecounting traumatic events is especially distressing for children, and can cause long-term damage\u201d.\nImportantly, it says that that approach\n\u201cis a poor way of eliciting comprehensive, reliable and accurate accounts of their experience\u201d.\nWe are told that the status quo damages witnesses in the same way that it disadvantages the public interest and the interests of the accused. I do not think that any of us wants to see that situation prevail.\nChildren 1st\u2019s written evidence, which has been alluded to, says:\n\u201cOver and over again child victims and witnesses\u201d\nof crime\n\u201chave told us that Scotland\u2019s justice system\u201d\nis, as someone mentioned earlier,\n\u201cdesigned for adults and rooted in the Victorian era\u201d\nand that it\n\u201ccauses them\u201d\n\u201ctrauma and harm\u201d.\nThe submission goes on to mention the\n\u201cscientific understanding of child development\u201d.\nThe extent to which child development has been mentioned in our deliberations is heartening. Understanding the needs of individuals\u2014whomever they may be\u2014is important, and there is growing awareness of that, not least in relation to the impact of adverse childhood experiences and trauma awareness. A lot of organisations, including Police Scotland, are very much aware of that.\nThe Children 1st submission also tells us:\n\u201cDevelopmentally children\u2019s ability to recall memories varies with both age and their experiences of trauma.\u201d\nI join others in supporting the extension of the provision to domestic abuse cases and summary cases. Although the cabinet secretary is supportive of that, if I noted him correctly he said that the implications have to be worked through. I resolutely support that approach, and the incremental approach that the committee is in favour of. We are talking about a significant investment in time, training and facilities. It is crucial that we get this right and that, most important, we take practitioners from all sectors with us.\nDaniel Johnson is correct to say that it is about getting the facilities right. I sat with Daniel and other members in the room that he spoke about\u2014I mean Daniel Johnson. I beg your pardon, Presiding Officer. I saw the face.\nYou read my lips.\nJohn Finnie:\nI know that expression.\nI sat with Daniel Johnson and others in the room that he spoke about. Yes, it was not particularly child friendly, but we saw the benefit of having such a facility for the child.\nIt is important that we get the whole criminal justice system right. The Lord Advocate has just responded to the committee\u2019s report. His letter is pretty much like the Scottish Government\u2019s response, and we are very pleased to have those responses, albeit that they have come at the 11th hour. He mentions the need to disclose obligations in adequate time. The ground rules hearing that has been mentioned is a fundamental part of what we are seeking, and the timing associated with that is crucial. We have had debates about whether it should be pre or post indictment. We do not want a situation in which someone is unnecessarily put through trauma only for the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service to decide against taking forward a case because it is not in the public interest or because there is an insufficiency of evidence to proceed; equally, we do not want trauma to be caused by having to wait to give evidence. That is another tension and balance that needs to be worked through. That will be helped by having an expeditious process, which the Lord Advocate refers to in his response. The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service has created 41 additional posts in the High Court to tackle the most serious cases, in which such an approach is likely to be used.\nThe committee took evidence on joint investigative interviews, which involve Police Scotland and social work staff. Those interviews are an important part of our process, but they are a long way away from the barnahus system, which started in Iceland and applies across Nordic countries, and which we saw in Norway. That involves three years of training for police officers. We saw charts on the wall about the expectation of children\u2019s understanding at different stages\u2014the developmental issue is important.\nThe proposals are excellent, but there is a way to go, and we will work on that.\nLike colleagues, I thank the clerks, the Scottish Parliament information centre and others for supporting the committee and I thank in particular all who gave oral and written evidence during our stage 1 consideration of the bill.\nLike others, Scottish Liberal Democrats strongly support the bill\u2019s principles, although they are hardly controversial. That can present challenges, as cross-party consensus can sometimes blunt robust scrutiny, but I am confident that that is not a risk in this instance, because the committee has already identified a number of areas where we will look to work with the Government to improve and strengthen the bill at stages 2 and 3.\nBefore I turn to those aspects, I, like others, record my gratitude to those who hosted the committee\u2019s visit to Oslo at the end of last year. It was enormously helpful to see at first hand how the barnahus\u2014child\u2019s house\u2014principles are applied in Norway. Approaches differ between the countries that apply the principles, but the visit demonstrated clearly to the committee what a genuinely child-centred and integrated approach to criminal justice looks like.\nFor a country such as Scotland that aspires to be the best place to grow up in, barnahus must be at least part of the yardstick against which we measure ourselves. I accept that the one forensic interview approach of barnahus would require a shift in legal culture and practice here, given our adversarial system. Nevertheless, we see the lighthouse model being trialled in London, and there was almost unanimous support from those from whom we took evidence\u2014including, as our convener said, Lady Dorrian, to whom we owe a huge debt of gratitude\u2014for moving more quickly towards adopting the principles.\nAs the NSPCC pointed out, integrating justice, healthcare and on-going therapeutic social care services under one roof\u2014often in purpose-built, child-friendly accommodation\u2014is the best, if not only, means of effectively reducing trauma for child victims and witnesses while maximising the chances of capturing their accounts of what happened. It is fair to say that we are still some way off that.\nThe Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service admitted in its 2015 review that\n\u201cScotland is still significantly lagging behind those at the forefront in this field.\u201d\nHowever, the SCTS has argued\u2014rightly\u2014that the bill is a\n\u201ccritical step in improving both the experience of witnesses and the quality of justice.\u201d\nEnabling greater use of pre-recorded evidence from children and vulnerable witnesses is the right way to go and builds on the special measures that are in place. As Lady Dorrian made clear, ways must be found to take evidence from children and other vulnerable witnesses\n\u201cin an environment and in a manner that does not harm them further, but allows their evidence to be given and tested fully and appropriately.\u201d\nI have been listening carefully to Liam McArthur and reflecting on what he has said. Does he agree that the relative consensus in the Parliament could be an advantage in helping to shift the legal culture that has applied in Scotland not just for decades but for centuries? If we put collective effort into dealing with obstacles that we might come across, that might have value in helping to shift mindsets.\nThat is a valid point and I do not diminish the value of consensus. Sometimes, the perception has been that the demand for reform that has emanated from the Parliament has been met with resistance in the legal community, but the evidence that we took suggested that that community has an appetite to collaborate with us. I hope that that will bear fruit.\nThe balance is crucial, and the rights of the accused cannot be lost in the process. The Law Society of Scotland made valuable points about the need for early identification of cases and effective communication by the COPFS, including timely disclosure of information. Without that, the defence is unlikely to be able to test the evidence fully. That said, the Lord Advocate is right to identify ground rules hearings, which would be overseen by a judge or sheriff, as an opportunity to strike the right balance between defence and prosecution interests, as well as to ensure that the questioning of a child or vulnerable witness is carried out in an appropriate and sympathetic fashion.\nThe committee felt strongly that when evidence is then taken by commissioner, every effort should be made to minimise any delay that could affect a child\u2019s recollection of events and to avoid, if at all possible, the need for such recorded interviews to be carried out more than once. While none of that is entirely new, the committee quickly recognised that what the bill proposes will have serious resource implications for aspects from training through to equipment and facilities, as was mentioned by John Finnie and Daniel Johnson. Some of those have already been recognised by the Scottish Government, and I welcome the additional investment that has gone into the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service and the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service. However, if such measures are to be applied routinely and to a consistently high standard, we should not underestimate what will be involved or the pressure that they will place on the criminal justice system.\nFor example, we already know that support for victims and witnesses in our courts and wider communities is stretched. That message came through during our earlier inquiry into the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service. Welcome though the bill\u2019s provisions undoubtedly are, they will inevitably compound the challenge that is faced by many of those services. That is why it makes sense for the Government to adopt a phased approach to implementation, starting with the most serious solemn cases in the High Court that involve child victims and witnesses. I can entirely understand the impatience in some quarters to see the measures rolled out for all victims and witnesses in the High Court and sheriff courts. However, the committee heard overwhelming evidence that there is a significant risk that the system would be unable to cope with that, which is an outcome that would serve no one\u2019s interests. Therefore, I accept the case for working through each phase systematically, reviewing and learning lessons before seeking to extend the provisions.\nHowever, I agree that the categories of cases in section 1 that are covered by the rule need to be expanded to include domestic abuse. Again, the evidence that we heard in that regard was both overwhelming and compelling. The Cabinet Secretary for Justice suggested that he had an open mind on that, which I welcome, and I encourage him to accept that case and to lodge an amendment at stage 2. As for future changes to the circumstances in which the protections and provisions would apply, again, there is sense in enabling those through regulations.\nIn conclusion, let me\u2014as most other members have done already\u2014quote Children 1st, which stated:\n\u201ca joined up approach to the care and justice needs of child victims and witnesses through a Barnahus or \u2018Child\u2019s House\u2019 is the best way to get it right for children from the moment they tell their story, ensuring that the child and their family get the support they need to recover. This will ensure that we have a justice system that is able to do both what is best for children and best for securing evidence.\u201d\nI hope that we can go some way towards ensuring that ahead of stage 3.\nWe move to the open debate and speeches of six minutes.\nRona Mackay (Strathkelvin and Bearsden) (SNP):\nLet me start by saying that this is a good bill and I am happy to commend its general principles to the chamber.\nAs the deputy convener of the Justice Committee, I thank the clerks for all their work in producing a fair, well-balanced report. As we have heard from my colleagues, the bill achieved consensus among the committee. We heard a lot of evidence from stakeholders in the legal profession, children\u2019s organisations and the court service, whom I thank for giving evidence.\nIn essence, the bill will ensure that children in the most serious criminal cases\u2014those who have been victims of or witnesses to sexual offences, murder, assault or danger to life\u2014are spared the trauma of giving evidence in court. It will enable them to give pre-recorded evidence much closer to the time of the offence. The Lord Justice Clerk, Lady Dorrian, told the committee:\n\u201cWhen children, in particular, are asked to give evidence at a time that is remote from the event, not only has their memory diminished, but they are more likely to be confused by general questioning about the incident\u201d.\u2014[Official Report, Justice Committee, 18 December 2018; c 3.]\nThat is crucial. Being asked to recall an event that may have taken place some time ago can be extremely distressing and traumatising for a child.\nIn its written submission, Children 1st told us:\n\u201cOver and over again child victims and witnesses have told us that Scotland\u2019s justice system\u2014designed for adults and rooted in the Victorian era\u2014often causes them greater trauma and harm. At the same time, as scientific understanding of child development\u2014and recently our understanding and awareness of the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences\u2014has grown, it has become overwhelmingly evident that Scotland\u2019s traditional approach to justice is the least effective for eliciting consistent, reliable accounts from child victims and witnesses.\u201d\nAs we know, the bill applies only to witnesses in solemn cases that are heard in the High Court, but a phased extension is proposed to cases that are heard in the sheriff court, under which child witnesses of domestic abuse would be covered. Along with other members, I am extremely keen for that to happen as soon as possible, as the majority of domestic abuse cases are heard in the sheriff court. I am pleased that the justice secretary has said that he will keep an open mind on including such a provision in the bill.\nI understand the need for a phased approach that involves monitoring and evaluation of the effect of the bill on court procedure and resources. I hope that a successful evaluation can be carried out quickly and that arrangements will be put in place for the extension of what is proposed from the High Court to the lower courts. I hope, too, that the proposal will be extended to cover adult vulnerable witnesses in solemn cases, who could benefit in the same way by giving recent unpressured evidence in a less-intimidating environment.\nRape Crisis Scotland said that cases often take two years or longer to move from the police report stage to trial, only for complainers\n\u201cto get a call the night before to say the trial isn\u2019t going ahead ... This causes considerable distress, and does not assist in complainers being able to give their best evidence.\u201d\nI understand that special measures are put in place for witnesses who have been assessed by Crown Office staff, and I urge that that practice be continued until the new rule applies.\nThe bill also focuses on the quality of joint investigative interviews by police and social work, which are vital, particularly when use is made of pre-recorded evidence. As with all aspects of the bill, it is vital that thorough trauma-informed training is given to all parties who are involved in taking evidence, and I am encouraged to note that a new JII training programme is expected to be finalised by March. Interviewing vulnerable witnesses takes a very special skill, and such skills are certainly necessary when JIIs are carried out or evidence is pre-recorded.\nThe bill does not cover the taking of pre-recorded evidence from a child accused although, from our knowledge of adverse childhood experiences, we know that such children have many issues and are often extremely vulnerable. They are children, too. However, I understand that the right of the child accused to remain silent must be respected and that the issues surrounding the recording of evidence before the trial has begun are complex. As the decision about whether a child witness should give evidence at the trial must be made in the context of the trial, it can be made only at the end of the trial. Taking evidence beforehand could prejudice their case or risk the evidence not being entirely accurate.\nNevertheless, the Lord Justice Clerk pointed out that there are special measures that can be put in place, such as enabling evidence to be given by live television link, but they are currently underused. That is not acceptable. I urge defence counsel to consider all measures that could be used and to apply them to the child accused in all cases to minimise the trauma that is involved.\nI am pleased that the justice secretary, the former justice secretary, the Lord Justice Clerk and the legal profession generally are fully supportive of the barnahus model for the giving of evidence by children. As the convener and others have said, the Justice Committee had the opportunity to visit the state barnahus in Oslo before Christmas, and we were extremely impressed with the one forensic interview system, which is operated in a child-friendly environment. Shortly after I was elected, I met Mary Glasgow and Harriet Hall of Children 1st, who explained the benefits of the barnahus to me. I was totally and utterly convinced that having such a system should be Scotland\u2019s aim. I am delighted that we are making some progress towards that and that it will become a reality in the not-too-distant future. In evidence to the committee, the justice secretary said that scoping arrangements would be put in place early in 2019, and I would welcome an update on that.\nThe bill represents a huge step forward in reducing the trauma that is faced by children in our justice system, and I commend its general principles to the chamber.\nMaurice Corry (West Scotland) (Con):\nI welcome this stage 1 debate on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill and thank the members of the Justice Committee and its clerks for their helpful insight and scrutiny of the bill.\nIt is crucial that witnesses come forward to participate in court cases. Their evidence is what makes for robust and fair verdicts, but the quality of their participation is at risk, especially if they are deemed to be vulnerable witnesses. We can all see that Scotland\u2019s court process is far from perfect. For vulnerable witnesses and children, in particular, the system can be almost overwhelming. Unless special care is taken when they are questioned, young witnesses can feel as though they are reliving their experience all over again. Pursuing a just and fair outcome without prejudice while ensuring that the witness is not placed in a distressing situation can be a sensitive balance to get right.\nWe have seen the benefit of adopting in courtrooms more special measures that are designed to help vulnerable witnesses. Television live links or supporters who sit with witnesses as they give evidence have been helpful methods of improving the process for young witnesses, especially if they are prone to feelings of anxiety and stress.\nThe proposal in the bill to allow, for some child witnesses, the pre-recording of evidence outwith the courtroom is rightly the next step to take. It will mean that, apart from in exceptional circumstances, those vulnerable witnesses will avoid the unnecessary trauma of being questioned in court, which will remove the mental burden that that places on child witnesses in the most serious cases. There is no doubt that the change in the law will help us to safeguard more readily the interests of children who have been the victims of human trafficking, sexual offences or abuse. At the same time, it will uphold the rights of those who are accused.\nAs well as the benefit for vulnerable witnesses, there will be a benefit for the quality of the proceedings and justice as a whole. By giving all the evidence in advance of the trial, witnesses will be able to recall their experiences far more readily and with greater accuracy and clarity, which will surely make for a more informed verdict. It will mean that witnesses have the best chance to participate in the process as helpfully as possible. Moreover, they will be free from what is often a lengthy wait until the trial.\nWe see pre-recorded evidence for such witnesses as the way forward, but it would be a mistake to stop there. The Scottish Government hopes to adopt a phased approach in implementing the new rule and expanding it to cover other vulnerable witnesses. Surely, that should start with the inclusion of child witnesses in domestic abuse cases. As we have heard, the Justice Committee has suggested that approach, and I believe that it was right to do so. The implications of domestic abuse are far reaching but, often, those who are most harmed are the children at the centre. Young people who experience such abuse are in desperate need of the same readiness to support them through the criminal process.\nAs the committee suggested, wider support mechanisms for vulnerable witnesses are well worth exploring. Providing the time and resources to allow special training would reduce the chances of harmful questioning of child witnesses and ensure that they are treated sensitively and fairly. Offering specialised and appropriate training would surely work well in tandem with implementing pre-recording of evidence.\nIt is equally important that we understand better the proposed timetable for the changes. We should not neglect the capacity that the bill has\u2014we must ensure that it is as effective and impactful as it can be. To achieve that, it needs to be clear and structured in setting out the proposed phased implementation. Only with clarity can we ensure that change will actually happen.\nScotland\u2019s court system desperately needs to improve. We cannot expect reliable and rock-solid evidence from children if it is taken in a traditional setting that neglects to recognise their needs. The bill offers progress in breaking down those courtroom barriers and a way to allow more accurate evidence giving in a safer environment.\nThe bill will provide a welcome change. It gives some assurance that vulnerable child witnesses will be involved in our court processes in the most sensitive and appropriate way. It safeguards their mental health and ensures more stable and certain evidence. I hope that, for the sake of other vulnerable witnesses and Scotland\u2019s future criminal procedure, the support for wider reform will not go unnoticed.\nIt is a great pleasure to speak in the debate. I will not be met with much objection from colleagues across the chamber when I say that it is legislation such as that proposed in the bill that we all came into politics for. The proposed legislation will have a positive effect on people\u2019s lives and will go some way to rectifying discrepancies in our current system. For those reasons, I was privileged to be one of the members of the Justice Committee who scrutinised the bill. I join the convener, the deputy convener and others in putting on record my thanks to the clerking team for their work on the bill under immense pressure and in preparing the stage 1 report, which I encourage anyone who is watching the debate to check out.\nAs others have said, the bill\u2019s main policy objective is to improve how children and vulnerable witnesses participate in the criminal justice system by enabling greater use of pre-recorded evidence. Many have fought for such a change in the law for a long time, including the Moira Anderson Foundation, which is based near my constituency. The vast majority of evidence that the committee heard from stakeholders, including among many others Barnardo\u2019s and Children 1st, was supportive of the need to reform and of the introduction of a rule ensuring that, in the most serious of cases, evidence from a child is taken pre trial.\nThere are many areas of the bill that I could focus on in the limited time that I have, but it will probably come as no surprise to my committee colleagues that I will spend a little time looking at the use of joint investigative interviews by the police and social work. At the moment, they are used in connection with child protection measures, and at this point, I must declare an interest as a registered social worker with the Scottish Social Services Council.\nThe committee heard how joint investigative interviews could be an integral part of the process and that there was more scope to use them as evidence in chief, thereby limiting damage to child victims and witnesses and preventing the need for them to give evidence at trial. However, we also heard that it was not always possible to use such interviews, and the committee found it difficult to ascertain exactly how often they were used.\nI was involved in joint investigative interviews for around eight years and although there was a lot of good and innovative practice, I do not think that any of my previous colleagues will mind my saying that there is scope for change and improvement\u2014in fact, they would expect me to say it. For example, specific JII training is very intense, but it is only a week long; after that, a worker\u2019s involvement in such interviews can be very sporadic, with perhaps only a handful or even fewer than that a year. The committee\u2019s scrutiny of the bill got me thinking about how many interviews I had been involved in and although it is obviously not possible to say exactly, I am reasonably confident in stating that the figure was no more than 30 over an eight-year period. That falls well short of the 100 to 150 hours that Mary Glasgow felt was required to gain an appropriate level of expertise.\nI therefore welcomed the evidence that was given by Kate Rocks of Social Work Scotland, who told the committee about the joined-up discussions that were going on with the police to expand the training to a year and the possibility of having a smaller group of workers who would be highly skilled in carrying out the interviews. I also welcomed the cabinet secretary\u2019s response to the committee about the governance and working groups that have been set up and the fact that, as Rona Mackay pointed out, the training programme is expected to be finalised in March.\nPerhaps such a move would also fit in with the principles of the barnahus model. As everyone who has spoken has said, the committee visited Oslo, and I think that it is fair to say that we were very impressed by what we saw there. That said, I think that we have already put in place many of the barnahus principles through our child-centred approach, but something relatively simple that we could do would be to have a one-stop shop for all the services that are involved to save a child from having to go to one place for an interview, another for a medical assessment and perhaps another for therapeutic support.\nI think that the conclusion in the committee report, as relayed by the committee convener Margaret Mitchell, sums it up best, and bringing all of that together might require having a specific venue in, say, each health board area, in four areas across Scotland or whatever. Such a setting would also allow the crucial issue of support to be addressed. In our evidence gathering, we heard lots of testimonies, and the suggestion was that, although it was very important to gather evidence for criminal proceedings, a perhaps more significant and important issue was the need for continued support during and after the process and to deal with any trauma that the child witness might experience.\nI conclude where I started by making it clear that the bill has been introduced as a result of real people\u2019s real-life experiences. In that respect, I want to share an example that involves a constituent of mine. What I am about to say has been agreed with the child\u2019s mother to protect anonymity.\nLast week, I had a parent in my office asking for help. Her child had been a key witness in a case that had resulted in the accused serving a prison sentence, but she told me that no one had sat down with the then nine-year-old or the parents to explain what was going on or how their statement would be used in the case. Because the accused pled guilty, the young person was spared the ordeal of having to testify before him in court, but they are fully aware that their evidence was a major part of securing the guilty plea. At one point, the child said, \u201cIt was scary that my mum had to leave the room and I had to speak to strangers\u201d.\nThe experience has led to a severe deterioration in the child\u2019s mental health, because every day they live in fear about what might happen when the individual is released from prison. The mother described having to deal with nightmares and self-harm, and she also told me about the day that she found her child attempting suicide. Thankfully, she made the shocking discovery in time. No victim should ever have to go through that, and that is why it is so important that the bill\u2019s provisions are put in place as quickly as possible.\nNot all of the bill is relevant to the case that I have just highlighted, but its principles are. I know that the mother is watching today\u2019s proceedings, and I hope that this is the start of changes being made to the law that will mean so much to her and her family. It is such real-life situations that make the bill so important. Moreover, given what I have said, it would be fitting if the bill were to pass at stage 1 during children\u2019s mental health week.\nThis is an important bill, and I thank the Government, the current cabinet secretary, his predecessor and others for bringing it forward. I commend the general principles to the chamber and hope that members will vote for them.\nJohann Lamont (Glasgow) (Lab):\nI was not involved in the bill\u2019s development, but I have found it very interesting to read the report and the briefings that we have secured. Like other members in the chamber, I have direct experience of constituents telling me how they have felt let down by the justice system. From the start of the Scottish Parliament, we have been trying to understand how people experience the justice system and trying to find ways to ensure that witnesses and victims feel that they get justice. I can remember very early in the Parliament a woman who had been the victim of a serious sexual assault talking about feeling that the court system had compounded her terrible experience rather than giving her a sense of justice. I think that the bill is part of understanding that experience, because those voices are still there. Fulton MacGregor\u2019s very powerful description of a young person\u2019s direct experience of the justice system gives us all pause and should act as a spur to ensure that the journey of making the justice system fair continues.\nThe bill is another step in wrestling with the challenge of how we ensure that the accused has a fair trial and that those who give evidence are able to do so in a way that allows that evidence to be thorough and testable. I would argue that we have made progress in creating a fairer system, because things that we were told were simply impossible as they would challenge the justice system and the protections in it are now part of the accepted court process. I expect that the bill\u2019s provisions will also be seen in that way in the future.\nWe need to think about how we treat victims, witnesses and complainants in the context of understanding criminal behaviour in all its many forms and the particular impact of particular crimes on victims. For example, I know from my conversations with adult survivors of child sexual abuse that their vulnerability still lives with them every day. We need a court system that understands that, too. We also need to think about the decisions at the prosecution stage on taking cases forward and whether they reflect the vulnerability of witnesses and victims; for example, if the victim is a person with a learning disability the case might not be taken forward as it might be deemed that their evidence will not be seen as credible. We need to reflect on those issues.\nThere is, of course, a danger and a challenge for us all in doing the relatively easy bit\u2014obviously, I have done less work on the bill than committee members, who have done a lot of work on it\u2014of passing legislation and feeling pleased that we have got that right. However, legislation must be placed in the context of the need for it to be effective and to ensure that it is enforced and that the changes are resourced properly. We do not want to end up just taking resource from one place and putting it in another in order to match the legislation\u2019s demands, only to see one piece of legislation having unintended consequences for another part of the system.\nWe need to understand how we can prevent people from becoming vulnerable to crime in the first place and how supported they are personally. For example, for children who are victims of domestic abuse, with all that that means for them, we need to look at the availability of safe places and the responses of the school system, the housing system and the agencies round about the young person. Those supports will, in their own way, give help to a child who might find himself or herself in a courtroom, which can be the end point of what might have been a traumatic journey of conflict and violence. We cannot separate the court process from the budget and resources that must support victims under the new system.\nAs an example of the challenge involved in that, I raise in particular the important role of the children\u2019s hearings system in the broader justice system. The children\u2019s hearings system is symbolic of our understanding of the need to put the child at the centre of the justice system, but it is also the practical expression of how we make that support real. Despite the sterling work of the volunteers and staff who manage the hearings system, the system is under pressure from, for example, lack of social work support, the inability to have social background reports produced and the inability of panels to make certain disposals because the resource is simply not there to make them happen. The danger is that young people are being ill-served by a system that is overstretched and pressured.\nThe Scottish Government needs to reflect on its choices in budgeting terms as well as in policy terms. In my view, it is simply shortsighted to target local government for budget cuts, given that many of the key supports for the justice system lie with schools, community safety, support groups and social work departments, most of which sit within local government.\nI support the bill, given the way in which it continues the journey towards ensuring that victims are treated fairly in the justice system and that, as a consequence, our justice system serves society better. However, I simply reflect that we should all take seriously not just the legislation; we should not see it in isolation but look at what must underpin it\u2014not only resources to deliver the process but resources to provide broader support and protection for those who live with the trauma of abuse and crime day by day.\nThe points that Fulton MacGregor made in his conclusion are absolutely right\u2014it is not just in the moment of giving evidence that a child or vulnerable witness has to be supported, but before they give evidence and afterwards as well. That is what will make the legislation real in the lives of young people and vulnerable witnesses.\nI thank the Justice Committee\u2019s clerks for all their work in pulling together a report ahead of today\u2019s stage 1 debate.\nOf course, the bill should not be considered in isolation. For the Government, this is clearly part of a wider agenda that is focused on the rights of victims and witnesses. However, if we consider that the Government designated 2018 the year of young people, it is timely that we now reflect, as a Parliament, on how the justice system listens to the views of our young people when it really counts. Indeed, as John Finnie said, it is vital that we get this right.\nAs has already been mentioned, it is now nearly two years since the Lord Justice Clerk, Lady Dorrian, introduced the High Court practice note that was the first step towards improving how our courts take evidence from children and vulnerable witnesses. Today, the provision to take evidence by commissioner remains the main policy objective, with greater use being made of pre-recorded evidence from child witnesses in the most serious cases. That original practice note from 2017 looked to build greater consistency into application of taking evidence on commission by minimising the risk of trauma through taking practical decisions about location, for example, more sensitively.\nSection 5(4) of the bill seeks to make changes to the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 that will allow for the possibility of pre-indictment commissions. I want to revisit why that provision is so important.\nThe ASSIST\u2014advocacy, support, safety, information and services together\u2014service is a domestic abuse advocacy and support service that is based in Glasgow. ASSIST advised the committee that children\u2019s evidence\n\u201cshould be taken in advance and as near to the \u2018incident\u2019 as possible.\u201d\nFurthermore, we were told by Daljeet Dagon from Barnardo\u2019s Scotland:\n\u201cwe often find that statements are taken and the police investigation concludes years before the actual process takes place. Recently, we found ourselves chapping the doors of young women who are now in their 20s but who had given statements when they were aged 14 and 15. Their situation had moved on, yet we were going back and retraumatising them, saying, \u201cWe\u2019ve got new evidence. Are you willing to come forward? We don\u2019t know how long the process is going to take.\u201d\u2014[Official Report, Justice Committee, 27 November 2018; c 4.]\nPerhaps this was most powerfully illustrated when Daljeet Dagon went on to give the example of a young person who gave the police 27 statements in total. By the time the trial went to court, she was deemed to be an unreliable witness.\nThe original 2017 practice note encouraged the use of commissions for children, and application for a commission at the earliest possible stage in High Court proceedings. The Lord Justice Clerk has therefore welcomed the new provision in the bill for the possibility for a commission to take place before serving of an indictment, as the committee heard.\nOne of the committee\u2019s key recommendations is that\n\u201csection 1 of the Bill should be amended to include domestic abuse in the list of offences covered by the rule requiring prerecording,\u201d\nin particular, because of\n\u201cthe trauma that children can experience in such cases.\u201d\nAs Scottish Women\u2019s Aid has argued,\n\u201cThis is a crucial issue, given the trauma that can be caused to children and young people experiencing domestic abuse\u201d.\n\u201cgiven the numbers of children likely to come under the auspices of the new offence,\u201d\nit is imperative that the offence be included. I appreciate that the cabinet secretary has previously indicated to the committee that he is willing to consider such an extension. In my view, there is an opportunity to join up legislation that has already been passed in Parliament on domestic abuse, so I am glad to have heard the cabinet secretary reiterate that point today.\nThe committee\u2019s visit to Norway to see the barnahus model in action was, as has been said today, a formative experience in respect of how we might seek to improve children\u2019s experiences of the justice system. The model is a one-stop shop where services come to the child. It struck me that the barnahus model has much in common with our own getting it right for every child approach, which is also child centred.\nThe bill has the potential to be truly groundbreaking if we get it right. Although I note the investment in Glasgow in a dedicated child and vulnerable witness suite, perhaps there is an opportunity for the Government to pilot the barnahus model on a small scale in the first instance, during this parliamentary session, because our experience, as Daniel Johnson alluded to in his comments, is that it was a siphoned-off room within the court buildings, which is not what the barnahus model is about, according to our experience on our visit to Norway.\nAlthough much can be learned from the Norwegian approach, a Scottish equivalent will have to be tailored to reflect our differing public services. I note that Healthcare Improvement Scotland and the Care Inspectorate are already involved in the development of Scotland-specific standards for barnahus. The Government\u2019s response to the committee advises:\n\u201cThis will enable us to set out a roadmap for improvements. These Scotland-specific standards will be based on the European PROMISE Quality standards for Barnahus. It is anticipated that the scoping stage will begin in early 2019.\u201d\nI note the cabinet secretary\u2019s commitment to meet the committee to discuss the barnahus model in more detail, but I make a request to the cabinet secretary that both Healthcare Improvement Scotland and the Care Inspectorate collaborate with education colleagues in that work, in order to avoid duplication and to acknowledge the sound grounding of education policy that already exists in the area, particularly in relation to trauma-informed schools and the wider adverse childhood experiences agenda, which Rona Mackay mentioned.\nThe strength of the barnahus model is, of course, that children are able to give evidence in the most comfortable environment possible, thereby avoiding retraumatisation. The taking of evidence on commission is part of the answer for Scotland, but a look again at the practicalities of location and environment, as Lady Dorrian specified in the original practice note, should be the next step in ensuring consistency of provision in that respect across the country. That should be the focus of the bill, if we are really to improve children\u2019s and vulnerable witnesses\u2019 experiences of the Scottish justice system.\nLady Dorrian said in 2017:\n\u201cIn all aspects of the work being undertaken we should never lose sight of the underlying aim. That is to secure a justice system which allows the guilt or innocence of an accused to be determined on the basis of the best possible quality of evidence available, in a manner that does not cause undue distress or harm to any participant in the process, and which is transparently fair, efficient and effective.\u201d\nTransparency, fairness and dignity in order to protect our vulnerable witnesses and to ensure that Scotland\u2019s children are spared the trauma of giving evidence in court are all aims that I am glad every MSP can support.\nAnnie Wells (Glasgow) (Con):\nI am very pleased to speak in this stage 1 debate. Although I am not a member of the Justice Committee, I am aware of how important the bill is to victims and witnesses of crime. Too many people find themselves being retraumatised by the court process. We all agree that that is not right. In supporting the reform, we are taking a positive step in the right direction.\nHowever, there is still more to do; I stress that Scotland must become the gold standard for victim support. The bill aims to improve how children and vulnerable witnesses experience criminal trials by enabling greater use of pre-recorded evidence. Significantly, the bill\u2019s focus is on child witnesses in the most serious cases, unless there is a significant\n\u201cprejudice to the fairness of the hearing\u201d,\nor if the child witness is \u201caged 12 or over\u201d and\n\u201cexpresses a wish to give evidence\u201d\nin a way that would serve their \u201cbest interests\u201d.\nAlthough the current methods of pre-recording will continue to be used, the bill also aims to improve the process of taking evidence by commissioner in all cases, not only when the new rule applies. That is a welcome move. Children\u2019s groups have been clear that the justice system in its current form causes distress and trauma. The charity Children 1st likened it to what was in place during the \u201cVictorian era\u201d.\nNot only should the introduction of pre-recording reduce the trauma that is caused to child witnesses\u2014it should also improve the quality of justice. A review of criminal procedure by the court service concluded that, for children in particular, traditional examination and cross-examination techniques in court are more likely to produce inaccurate and unreliable accounts of their experiences. That view was supported by the Lord Justice Clerk, who stated the importance of getting evidence from children as close to the event as possible. Confusion can arise from memory loss, which increases the likelihood that the witness will agree with the questioner when they cannot remember something.\nImportantly, and of reassurance to people who are concerned about potential miscarriages of justice, research has shown that pre-recording evidence does not make jurors more sympathetic, and that use of pre-recorded evidence from child witnesses has no significant effect on the outcome of the trial.\nThere is always a need to put checks and balances in place. We support that, too. The Faculty of Advocates made that point and stressed the requirement for sufficient safeguards to be put in place\n\u201cto enable the rule to operate fairly\u201d\nand so that evidence can be tested on an informed basis.\nThe bill gives ministers the power to expand the rule to adult vulnerable witnesses in cases of rape, sexual assault and domestic abuse. It is obvious why, in such cases, a victim would not want to give evidence in the presence of the alleged perpetrator, whether in the courtroom or via a live television link. I ask members to think about whether they or a loved one would really wish to go through the heartache and pain of having to relive what happened over and over again. Sometimes, the process can take years to come to an end, so it is no surprise that victims say that the process leaves them traumatised.\nI appreciate the fact that the process for applying for special measures will be simplified. I also understand that the courts system is under huge strain and that reforms need to be implemented in an effective and manageable way. Undeniably, however, it will be disappointing to women who are affected by those heinous crimes that they will have to wait until the mid-2020s to be offered the same reforms. Rape Crisis Scotland stated that the current approach to taking evidence from adult vulnerable witnesses causes significant distress and trauma, with frequent significant delays in cases coming to trial. Trials can be cancelled at the last minute, which puts more strain and pressure on the witnesses.\nOn potential changes to put victims at the heart of the justice system, I strongly support the introduction of the one-sheriff system for victims of rape and sexual assault, which the Scottish Conservatives have previously called for in cases of domestic abuse. As things stand, victims of those crimes can have their cases and related proceedings heard by various judges and so have to relive their stories over and over again. It is vital that we look at the one-sheriff approach, which has been trialled successfully elsewhere, and assess the impact that it would have on reducing retraumatisation. I therefore ask the cabinet secretary for his thoughts on how a one-sheriff system could be implemented for such cases.\nI reiterate my support for the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1. To give evidence as a victim or witness is difficult enough; to do so as a child or as the victim of domestic violence, rape or sexual assault is even more difficult. It is fundamentally important that we support victims of crime. The bill will play an important role in that.\nThat said, there is still much more to do, so we must strive to reach a point when Scotland is the gold standard for victim support.\nAs a member of the Justice Committee, I support the general principles of the bill and welcome the consensus that has been demonstrated in the debate.\nThe bill forms part of a much wider and more ambitious programme of work being undertaken to improve and modernise the experience of victims and witnesses in the justice system. The bill\u2019s objective is to improve how children and vulnerable witnesses participate in the criminal justice system, with greater use of pre-recorded evidence. It would apply in solemn cases, such as those that other members have mentioned.\nAs has also been said, few can imagine being an already traumatised young child, who is interviewed, sometimes multiple times, or who has to relive harrowing events at a later date through the traditional judicial processes for giving evidence. The bill will help to remove any legislative obstacles that would have a detrimental effect on the greater use of pre-recorded evidence and that includes the power to make the pre-recording of evidence available to adults who are deemed to be vulnerable witnesses in solemn cases.\nThe bill is supported widely, including by the judiciary and many third sector organisations. I am pleased that the Scottish Government is committed to looking at how the Scandinavian barnahus principles could work in the context of Scotland\u2019s child protection, health and justice system. Unfortunately, due to a prior engagement, I was the only member of the committee not to see the barnahus model in real life in Norway, but I spoke to other committee members and they were very impressed with the model\u2019s potential.\nThe model was adopted because it was recognised that multiple agencies\u2019 information sharing and co-ordination were poor and it was introduced to overcome those challenges. Children were previously required to give multiple interviews to professionals from each agency, thereby damaging the reliability of the evidence that they were able to provide, and they were being traumatised by having to give testimony in court. Consequently, few suspected perpetrators were charged and convicted and victims were not adequately supported to recover from the trauma of sexual abuse.\nThe barnahus model offers all the services under one roof in a non-threatening and child-friendly environment. A trauma-trained interviewer is with the victim, and on a video link are a range of professionals, including the police, child protection and the prosecutor and defence solicitors. They communicate via an earpiece with the interviewer who relays questions in a child-friendly manner that is consistent with the principles of forensic interviewing. It is vital that the interview is carried out as quickly as possible after the alleged offence; the children\u2019s charity Children 1st agrees that it is in the best interests of the child to give their complete testimony as soon as possible. It minimises the anxiety that is felt by children and allows directed support networks to work with children to improve their welfare.\nAlthough I fully understand that some stakeholders that are involved in the consultation want quicker progress towards the barnahus model, it is crucial to get it right and to take a phased approach. The Scottish Government\u2019s proposed phased approach could initially be in the form of a pilot scheme, and it would allow the system to absorb change while minimising risk both to the system and, importantly, to individual cases. Our justice system is not identical to those in Scandinavia and we have to recognise that.\nI therefore welcome the Scottish Government\u2019s commissioning of Healthcare Improvement Scotland with the Care Inspectorate to develop Scotland-specific standards for the barnahus approach\u2014that is the right way to proceed. The specific standards would balance a child\u2019s right to recovery with their right to access justice in a child-centred way, in line with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and, of course, the getting it right for every child approach. I am sure that progress can be made towards adopting the best elements of that system here in Scotland, and I look forward to progress in the foreseeable future.\nI, like other speakers, welcome the bill. Anything that makes giving evidence easier for children and vulnerable witnesses has to be welcomed. The bill is geared towards children, but it must be wider, to recognise the nature of the crime and how that can make witnesses vulnerable.\nI will speak about domestic abuse, as many people have done this afternoon. I welcome the cabinet secretary\u2019s comments on considering amending the bill to make sure that the process is available in cases of domestic abuse where children are giving evidence. That is the right thing to do, rather than introducing that at a later date. The trauma that is attached to domestic abuse is well understood for adults, but not for children. It has a long-lasting effect on their development, so it is really important that, where possible, we limit the trauma as much as possible.\nWe can imagine a case in which a child is in court giving evidence against a parent\u2014having that person in the same room makes the evidence giving very difficult. It is serious, but quite often the justice system does not treat domestic abuse as serious. That point was made by Daniel Johnson; most cases are summary cases. The NSPCC noted that a tiny minority of domestic abuse cases are heard in solemn court proceedings; therefore, if the first phase of reform is limited solely to solemn cases, a large number of vulnerable children who will potentially give evidence in domestic abuse cases will not benefit or be protected under this system.\nIt is important that the ability to pre-record evidence is extended to all domestic abuse cases, regardless of which court they are heard in. It should also be extended to all child witnesses. A court case can take one or two years to come to court and young children will forget the evidence that they have to give, whereas if their evidence were recorded at the time, when the incident was fresh in their minds, they would be much better witnesses. Children in all court cases should be protected, but particularly those involved in domestic abuse cases.\nThat goes for adults as well, and particularly those who are victims of domestic abuse. Domestic abuse relies on coercion and control and therefore coming face to face with their abuser in court can have a devastating effect on the victim giving evidence in the case. It is right that the bill focuses on children, who need our protection. However, it should be extended to adults in not only domestic abuse cases, but cases where witnesses are vulnerable adults, people with learning difficulties or people with poor physical or mental health. Those people should be afforded the same protections as children, because the way in which they give evidence at a later date could be compromised if they are not.\nAlthough we are moving towards a presumption of evidence by commission, which we will implement in phases in cases involving adults who are deemed to be vulnerable, it is important to say that as things stand, if there is an application, evidence from adults can already be taken by commission.\nI hope that the bill makes that the norm and that that is applied to adult vulnerable witnesses.\nOther members talked about rape and sexual abuse cases. That is another area to which the approach should be extended. Those crimes leave victims extremely vulnerable. We have heard during parliamentary debates stories in which victims have said that the process of going through court was worse than the damage done by the original crime. That is unacceptable. We need to protect people.\nI have constituents in the Highlands who have had to go to Glasgow because rape and sexual abuse crime is tried in the High Court. That is not local and those cases can be cancelled at very short notice. In some cases, women have had to arrange childminding, cover for their jobs and somewhere to stay in Glasgow\u2014as well as somewhere to stay for those who are giving them support, the cost of which is not always covered\u2014and they have had to cancel it all at the last minute. If their evidence was recorded, that would not happen.\nI know that I am short of time, Presiding Officer, and forgive me if I abuse my position in the debate, but I want to flag up to the Cabinet Secretary for Justice the issue of custody of children who have suffered domestic abuse. Custody is given to abusive partners. I know that it is an issue that the Scottish Government is considering and that the bill is perhaps not the right place to address it. However, I do not believe that a domestic abuser should automatically get custody of their child. Indeed, the opposite is the case: the abuser should not get custody until they can prove to the courts and to the victims of their abuse that they will not harm the child or use the custody to further promote their abuse.\nThe bill is welcome and overdue. It is striking that Children 1st talked about the court process being an adverse childhood experience, rather than the crime that the child had suffered. Justice should be cathartic, rather than abusive. I hope that the bill will be a step in that direction.\nThat brings us to the debate\u2019s concluding remarks.\nIt has been a useful and very consensual debate. The touchstone is the trauma and length of time that the bill seeks to eliminate. The convener and deputy convener of the Justice Committee, as well as other members such as John Finnie, have brought to life the importance of reducing trauma and the amount of time between the event that is witnessed and the gathering of evidence, because reliability is key.\nMany members have made the point that our courts reflect a Victorian way of doing things. The bill is an important step towards modernising our courts and our justice system.\nIt is important to look at the reliability of what is being proposed, and I thank Annie Wells for reminding us that the bill proposes a sound way of taking evidence. In such consensual debates, it is easy for us to leap to conclusions, but it is important to bear witness that the evidence shows that pre-recording evidence is reliable and does not unduly sway juries one way or another.\nIt is also important to reflect on context, and for doing so I thank my colleague Johann Lamont. We should view the measures not in isolation but in the context of our wider services and the wider circumstances that people find themselves in.\nI particularly thank my colleague Fulton MacGregor for his remarks. He provided some of the context. The example that he gave of the child and the clear trauma that providing evidence gave that individual brought to life the importance of delivering the proposals as quickly and efficiently as we can. He also provided some of the technical detail about the JIIs that I was not able to cover in my introductory remarks.\nWhen we examine what takes place in the initial contact that a child or vulnerable person has with the authorities\u2014the integrated approach of social work and the police, the training and the focus that is happening\u2014we begin to see some of the next steps that we can take. Most important among the proposed measures is the proposal about how we can promote such evidence as evidence in chief in the courts, meaning that direct evidence is not required from individual witnesses.\nI thank my colleagues Jenny Gilruth, Rona Mackay and Shona Robison for describing the barnahus model that we saw, which means that I do not have to. When we compare and contrast the JII with the barnahus model both generally and specifically in Norway\u2014its single interview in an integrated facility where other forensic procedures can take place and the three-year training that the police officers in the barnahus in Norway have to undertake, which involves taking a bachelor\u2019s degree, as opposed to the one year that we are just proposing and not even delivering for the people who undertake JIIs\u2014we can see how a JII could conform to the barnahus model. We could deliver much of what we seek from that model through a JII, and I urge the Government to look at how that can be done.\nMuch is made of the ability to test evidence and the need for cross-examination. In Norway, the fact that a second interview can be requested shows how we could deliver the testing of the evidence that is so important to our legal system. I urge the Government to look at that.\nI am grateful to the member for taking an intervention. Does the member recall\u2014as I do\u2014that, although there is the facility in the barnahus model to request a second interview, such is the efficiency of the initial interview that a second one is very rarely called for by the defence?\nI thank my colleague for that intervention. I was struck by that point, too. It points to the place that we could arrive at if we are so minded.\nThe key point\u2014it is one that many members have made\u2014is that we must not see the bill as an end point but must push to go further. The comments that have been made about domestic abuse cases, which have been acknowledged by the cabinet secretary, point to the fact that we must strive to go as far as we possibly can.\nAlthough it is a good bill, its logic leads to a danger of defining vulnerability by reference to the charge or the court in which an individual gives evidence, which is clearly not right. An individual who gives evidence is not traumatised because of a particular charge or court; they are traumatised because they are having to recount the experience that they had. We must therefore expand the measures as widely as possible and make them the norm. It is self-evident that expansion to other courts and charges is the next step.\nIt is a good bill, but it has to be the first step on the journey, not the last.\nGordon Lindhurst (Lothian) (Con):\nThere has been interesting discussion in the chamber today, and much agreement has been evident in the speeches that we have heard. In particular, there is agreement that the bill could improve not only the experience of the justice system but the quality of the evidence\u2014something that is in the interests of not just witnesses and victims but justice itself.\nTo put it simply, it is better to take evidence closer to the time of events, while memories are still fresh. I say that from direct experience as an advocate in many, many criminal trials before our courts. Video evidence that is taken at the time can, therefore, be of more value than evidence that is taken directly from a witness many months\u2014if not years\u2014later, as members have said. The obvious answer to that, on one level, is that court proceedings should take place more quickly. Indeed, the Faculty of Advocates made that point during evidence taking.\nOur court system has been referred to as \u201cVictorian\u201d. I am not sure that I recognise that as an accurate description of where we are\u2014and I say that as someone who has dealt with child witnesses in a courtroom setting. Indeed, I have dealt with victims of sexual offences who were as young as three at the time of the commission of the offences. Changes have been made in Scotland over the past 40 years or more, such as the introduction of the standard special measures that are available, which are described in the committee\u2019s report. For example, live television video links allow evidence to be taken from outside the courtroom.\nHowever, there is always room for improvement\u2014there is no doubt about that. As Liam Kerr pointed out, the bill, in effect, extends the protections that are already in place. It can be viewed as a bill that takes sensible next steps. Ensuring the participation of witnesses, especially vulnerable people, is vital to the effective pursuit of justice. Maurice Corry rightly referred to the need to bear in mind the difficult balancing act that must take place if the outcome is to be just and fair and no witness is unnecessarily to suffer distress in the process.\nIn trying to strike that balance, it is critical that we get it right for all the parties who are involved in criminal proceedings, because, as well as efforts to reduce the stress that vulnerable witnesses often feel and thereby improve the evidence that is available from such witnesses, there must be safeguards to prevent miscarriages of justice, as Annie Wells said. There is, of course, no single, one and only consideration when it comes to dealing with justice and crime, but an honest desire to find out the truth of what happened needs to be one of the overriding considerations. The committee received evidence of that.\nThe issue is particularly pertinent because the success of the bill will depend on the child\u2019s evidence being tested sufficiently and on an informed basis. That will involve full disclosure of evidence at an early stage. As the bill progresses, it is important that concerns about current trends on late disclosure be addressed. Late disclosure can result in a need to revisit evidence with a witness, which defeats the purpose of the bill.\nIf we are to get things right, the answers might not be entirely simple and straightforward. Changes might need to be informed by the experience that follows the bill. That is why I welcome the Cabinet Secretary for Justice\u2019s commitment to take a careful approach to the changes and to the timetable for implementation, which will include reaching out further to all children who give evidence and to adult vulnerable witnesses.\nAs Annie Wells pointed out, we need a more detailed timetable, with thought given to which groups of people could benefit through these measures. As the committee\u2019s report highlights, it is partly a matter of resources. In any country, starving the justice system and the courts of the resources that they need is a false economy. That applies as much to Scotland as to anywhere else. As has already been mentioned, the risk is that we overwhelm the system, meaning that procedures such as commissions do not operate as they should and the aims of the bill\u2014the interests of vulnerable witnesses and justice\u2014are not met as a result. That would be counterproductive and could defeat the good intentions behind the desire to immediately include all vulnerable groups.\nLike Liam Kerr, I hope that the evaluation evidence will be shared with the committee, as was promised, so that sufficient parliamentary scrutiny can be applied to any consideration of further extending the bill\u2019s provisions. That could facilitate the speedy extension of the provisions, as and when appropriate, to other witnesses.\nWith my colleagues, I look forward to developments and to the cabinet secretary\u2019s further careful consideration of these matters.\nThe debate has been excellent: it has been very constructive, insightful and, at times, extraordinarily powerful. It is sometimes worth taking a step back. I think that, despite our various differences in a number of policy areas, every single one of us is in politics to make a difference to the most vulnerable people across Scotland, and that is what the bill very much aims to do.\nI want to pick up on a point that Liam McArthur made at the beginning of the debate about the consensus on the bill, which is a good thing. Having been in front of the committee, I can say that there is no lack of scrutiny of the bill. That is also good, and I have every faith in my Opposition colleagues robustly scrutinising the bill. That consensus has not come about by accident; it has resulted from a lot of reflection and from taking people on the journey with us. It is great that we have progressively minded people in the legal institutions that we put our faith in, from the Lord Advocate to the Lord President to the Lord Justice Clerk and many others. It is great that we have consensus, but that certainly has not come about by magic by any stretch of the imagination.\nI will try to pick up on many of the points that have been raised in the debate. Members from almost every political party suggested that the Government consider extending the list in the bill to include domestic abuse cases. I reiterate that I am seriously considering that as the direction of travel in which the Government will move, but I have to consider the implications. I highlight again some of the numbers. Four per cent of cases that were marked for trial on indictment in the sheriff court were domestic abuse cases; 0.9 per cent were marked for trial in the High Court. The percentages are small, of course, but we are talking about 150 High Court cases and, I think, 710 sheriff and jury cases. Not all such cases will necessarily involve a child witness but, nonetheless, I have to take those considerations into account if there is phased implementation. Notwithstanding all of that, I am quite confident that we can get to a position at which we will, I hope, extend the list.\nIs it worth inquiring into the numbers of cases that involve children? We could therefore get an idea of the resources that might be required for implementation.\nI am doing that as part of my consideration of the issue. Despite that, that is the direction that the Government should absolutely go in and in which I will take the Government if I can.\nAnother issue that I think has been raised by members from every political party is the barnahus model and Scotland fully adopting the barnahus concept. It is the Scottish Government\u2019s intention to implement barnahus. It is really important for it to be recognised that we are making improvements and that we are making our way towards that approach. Clearly, in order to get there, we will have to take others, including our legal institutions, with us along the way.\nWhen John Finnie intervened during Daniel Johnson\u2019s closing speech, he made a very good point about secondary interviews not often being taken up. However, I know that John Finnie recognises that our system is very different from an inquisitorial system. Our adversarial system is not decades but centuries old. That legal tradition is not to be scoffed at by any stretch of the imagination and it has served us well. Although it presents inherent difficulties, they are not insurmountable, and I take Lady Dorrian\u2019s point that, in the long term, we should have one forensic interview.\nOn joint investigative interviews, I am not being critical of the practitioners, but if we can enhance the quality of the system, we are likely to reduce the trauma or the requirement for a revisiting interview.\nJohn Finnie makes that point very well. I will come to joint investigative interviews shortly.\nI will finish off my point about the barnahus model. On Rona Mackay\u2019s point, significant work is under way to explore the barnahus concept, and I am happy to update the Justice Committee on our work to develop\u2014I hope by April\u2014Scotland-specific standards for barnahus. I will therefore go back to the Justice Committee to give further detail on how we are getting on with that.\nI am very encouraged by what the cabinet secretary is saying. Does he accept that, by making it explicit that not only the direction of travel but the ultimate objective is to put in place the barnahus concept, those who have concerns about how that is achieved will have certainty about where we are going? We can then work on the solutions to the problems, rather than get overly vexed about the problems themselves.\nYes. I am more than happy to say on the record that that is our destination. We want to have barnahus\u2014or a bairn\u2019s hoose or whatever members want to call it. I again make the point that the barnahus model is different in each of the jurisdictions in which it has been adopted, depending on the legal framework. That point should not be lost.\nMembers have made very valid points about joint investigative interviews. I have heard from the Lord Advocate, the Solicitor General for Scotland and many in the legal professional about the quality\u2014and, sometimes, the lack of quality\u2014of joint investigative interviews.\nMembers will probably know that the \u201cEvidence and Procedure Review Child and Vulnerable Witnesses Project Joint Investigative Interviews Work-stream Project Report\u201d made 33 recommendations on how the current JII model could be strengthened. The recommendations are being progressed by the relevant organisations and multi-agency working groups have been established. The Scottish Government has also committed more than \u00a3300,000 to a joint project, led by Police Scotland and Social Work Scotland, which will create a revised JII model and develop an approach to investigative interviewing of children that is trauma informed and achieves best evidence through more robust planning and interview techniques.\nAll that said, I was struck by Jenny Gilruth\u2019s comment about our partners being wider than just those in the legal system and our need to look at education and health improvement. I will reflect on her point and see how we can include those wider sectors in some of our work.\nI thank the committee and all the members who spoke in the debate for their important recognition of the fact that we must have a phased implementation approach. We all want to get to a place where everybody who is vulnerable\u2014child or adult\u2014has the opportunity to give evidence by commission, which they can do on application as things stand, and where the presumption is in favour of their giving evidence in a trauma-informed way, including through pre-recorded evidence by commissioner. Equally, we cannot afford to overwhelm the system\u2014as, I think, John Finnie said. We must get it right, not rush it.\nMembers across the chamber are, of course, right to press the Government for further detail on the implementation plan. Once we have that, I will, of course, share it with members.\nDaniel Johnson and other members spoke about the ground rules hearing. I reiterate what I said in my opening speech. There may be benefit in lodging questions in advance, but I warn against any suggestion that such a requirement should be in primary legislation. I was struck by Lady Dorrian\u2019s stage 1 evidence that\n\u201cThe flexibility that would be maintained by having those recommendations on the ground rules hearing set out in the practice note would be much more beneficial than trying to put those into primary legislation, which would be much more difficult to change.\u201d\u2014[Official Report, Justice Committee, 18 December 2018; c 10.]\nI am pleased that the committee is so minded, too.\nI turn to other issues that were raised. Many members, including Daniel Johnson in his closing speech, made the valid point that, although we are\u2014for right, good and understandable reasons\u2014focusing on solemn cases because they are the most serious cases, there is no doubt that witnesses and complainers in summary cases can be vulnerable. As Rhoda Grant said, the majority of domestic abuse cases go through summary proceedings. The Government will reflect on that valid point.\nExtending the approach to summary cases would have serious implications for resources and other matters, which is why we are dealing with solemn cases first, after which we will perhaps look at summary cases. However, the point about vulnerability is not lost and is well made by members across the chamber. Daniel Johnson\u2019s point about measurements of vulnerability is also something for us to reflect on.\nI will reflect on a number of other points that were made. Annie Wells made a powerful speech, as did others, about taking a holistic approach to victim support. From the moment that I was appointed as the Cabinet Secretary for Justice, I have ensured that we look to strengthen the support that we give victims. Victim Support Scotland is a key player in that, as are Rape Crisis Scotland, Scottish Women\u2019s Aid and many other organisations.\nThe victims task force will be a key group, and the Justice Committee has already asked me to go to future meetings to update the Parliament on the task force\u2019s work, which I have agreed to do. I extend to Annie Wells and any other member who is not on that committee the opportunity to have a briefing and an update on the task force and the difference that we are making and to suggest issues that we should consider.\nAnnie Wells asked for my opinion on the one-sheriff system for certain cases. I noted and will reflect on what she said. I know that she is aware that court programming, including the scheduling of judges, is very much a matter for the Lord President, whose territory I am always wary of stepping on. If she has not done so, Annie Wells might want to raise the issue directly with him.\nSubstantial points were made about the need for trauma-informed training. Jenny Gilruth and Shona Robison made their points about that well, as did other members across the chamber. It is important to approach that in a joined-up way. The Deputy First Minister, who is on my right, and I are often in meetings together to talk about the trauma-informed approach, the ACEs agenda and overlapping governmental responsibilities.\nDeveloping an ACE and trauma-informed workforce, including implementing national trauma training, is a programme for government commitment. In June last year, the Deputy First Minister announced \u00a31.35 million of investment to launch a national trauma training programme, which involves training that is consistent with the transforming psychological trauma framework. Specific lead projects have been identified to raise awareness among medical professionals and those in the criminal justice system of how to handle trauma and adverse childhood experiences. On 30 January, the Judicial Institute for Scotland announced plans to provide new refresher training for all sheriffs and judges ahead of the provisions on the new domestic abuse offence coming into force.\nThe Scottish Government plans to host a round table early this year that will allow NHS Education for Scotland and the Law Society of Scotland, together with many other stakeholders from the legal profession, to discuss opportunities to develop a bespoke trauma-informed training resource for solicitors that will count towards continuing professional development. We take seriously the points about the trauma-informed approach and trauma-informed training.\nI end by thanking Fulton MacGregor for his very powerful account, which he received from his constituent, of the impact that going through a court process can have on a vulnerable individual, especially a child. That is the reason why we\u2014not just the Scottish Government, but all of us in the Parliament who support the bill\u2014are doing what we are doing.\nI thank members for their detailed scrutiny of the bill, which has yielded many suggestions on which the Government will reflect. I am pleased to say that we will do so with an absolutely open mind. I have greatly enjoyed the stage 1 debate and look forward to stage 2, when we will look at the amendments, and to working with members from across the chamber to ensure that we get our criminal justice system right for the most vulnerable people in our society.\nVulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill: Financial Resolution\nThe next item of business is consideration of motion S5M-15277, in the name of Derek Mackay, on the financial resolution for the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill.\nThat the Parliament, for the purposes of any Act of the Scottish Parliament resulting from the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill, agrees to any expenditure of a kind referred to in Rule 9.12.3(b) of the Parliament\u2019s Standing Orders arising in consequence of the Act.\u2014[Humza Yousaf]\nThe next item of business is consideration of business motion S5M-15724, in the name of Graeme Dey, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, which sets out changes to this week\u2019s business.\nThat the Parliament agrees to the following revisions to the programme of business for:\n(a) Wednesday 6 February 2019\u2014\n5.15 pm\tDecision Time\n(b) Thursday 7 February 2019\u2014\n2.30 pm\tParliamentary Bureau Motions\n2.30 pm\tStage 1 Debate: Management of Offenders (Scotland) Bill\n2.00 pm\tMinisterial Statement: Glasgow City Region Deal \u2013 Glasgow Airport Access Project\nfollowed by\tStage 1 Debate: Management of Offenders (Scotland) Bill.\u2014[Graeme Dey.]\nOn a point of order, Presiding Officer. I want to raise a point of order under rule 8.17 of the standing orders. In response to my question earlier today on the failure of Scottish Enterprise to provide a loan to McGill that would have saved 450 jobs, the Minister for Business, Fair Work and Skills said that McGill\n\u201cdid not provide the required financial information in time for the appropriate due diligence to be undertaken\u201d.\nI understand that to be completely false.\nMembers: Oh!\nToday, the minister said that Scottish Enterprise asked for a business plan on 18 December 2018, which was the day that KPMG issued its report. However, there was no request for anything from McGill on that day.\nAt a meeting on 14 January 2019, Scottish Enterprise asked McGill to provide a two-year financial model, a turnaround plan and a strategic review, which it provided four days later, on 18 January. I have a copy of that email.\nThe minister hides behind bureaucratic timescales because he has been negligent in his duty to save 450 jobs with a \u00a32 million loan. Yesterday, we heard that the Scottish Government has put together a \u00a315 million funding package to prevent the loss of 300 jobs at Texas Instruments in Inverclyde. The fact that the much lesser amount of \u00a32 million could not be found to save 450 jobs is a disgrace and will be a source of real frustration to the workers and the people who tried to save the company.\nI hope that the minister will correct the record, but I am bitterly disappointed that he did not act to save the company.\nI thank Ms Marra for giving me a few minutes\u2019 notice of her point of order. I will make a couple of remarks in response.\nFirst, all members have an obligation to be truthful and accurate in their contributions in the chamber. I also remind all members that they should treat each other with respect.\nIn the light of her comments, if Ms Marra disputes the accuracy of the minister\u2019s reply I suggest that she pursues the point through intervening on him in parliamentary questions, lodging written or oral questions or writing to him. I hope that she will consider those to be appropriate routes.\nThe first question is, that motion S5M-15699, in the name of Humza Yousaf, on the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1, be agreed to.\nThe final question is, that motion S5M-15277, in the name of Derek Mackay, on the financial resolution to the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill, be agreed to.\nThat the Parliament, for the purposes of any Act of the Scottish Parliament resulting from the Vulnerable Witnesses (Criminal Evidence) (Scotland) Bill, agrees to any expenditure of a kind referred to in Rule 9.12.3(b) of the Parliament\u2019s Standing Orders arising in consequence of the Act.\nThe final item of business is a members\u2019 business debate on motion S5M-15410, in the name of Emma Harper, on world cancer day 2019. The debate will be concluded without any question being put.\nThat the Parliament notes that 4 February 2019 marks World Cancer Day; understands that one-in-two people will get cancer in their lifetime but that, over the last, 40 years survival rates have doubled, with half of people now surviving cancer thanks to the great progress that research has made; acknowledges the importance of early detection; understands the need for continued action to help prevent cancers; believes that 40% of cases could be prevented by positive action, including by not smoking and keeping a healthy bodyweight, and notes that Members can show their support for World Cancer Day through wearing its unity band.\nI am pleased to lead the debate, noting that yesterday\u20144 February 2019\u2014marked world cancer day. I thank my colleagues who supported my motion, and I am looking forward to everybody\u2019s contributions.\nI would like to thank Cancer Research UK for its media support in print and social media in the past week, as well as ITV Border in my South Scotland region for its coverage of my sister\u2019s primary breast cancer treatment and recovery journey. Raising awareness was the whole purpose.\nCancer is a global subject that is possibly too big to cover in the time allocated. In my previous career as an operating room nurse, I assisted with tumour removal and tissue repair daily. One in two people gets cancer in their lifetime but, over the past 40 years, survival rates have doubled and half the people who are diagnosed now survive cancer, thanks to the great progress that has been made in cancer research.\nThe theme for this year\u2019s world cancer day is unity. I am wearing my unity band because we must unite to beat cancer. No single person, organisation or country is going to beat cancer alone. We must all unite and work together to make faster progress on achieving the goal of three out of four people surviving cancer by 2034.\nAs Cancer Research UK has outlined, four in 10 cancers could be prevented by actions such as not smoking, keeping a healthy body weight, cutting back on alcohol, eating a healthy balanced diet, keeping active and enjoying the sun safely\u2014I say that as somebody who needs factor 50, at least, when she goes in the sun.\nWe need to raise awareness of the reduced uptake of cervical cancer screening in Scotland, which was debated recently in Parliament. It is extremely important that women accept their national health service invitation to attend cervical screening. In Dumfries and Galloway, research has been conducted on a simple home self-test for human papilloma virus, which is the cause of 99.7 per cent of cervical cancers. There are 6,000 women in the NHS Dumfries and Galloway area alone who have not taken up their cervical screening invitation, and I encourage them all to do so. That highlights the importance of research to make screening easier, less uncomfortable, more accessible and easier to engage with. When cancer is detected early, treatment is more successful.\nI want to highlight the importance of action on smoking. As convener of the cross-party group on lung health and someone who has a sister who is a respiratory nurse consultant, I am keen to support any activity that we can implement to help people to quit smoking. I thank Cancer Research UK for the briefing that it provided ahead of the debate, according to which smoking is the biggest preventable cause of cancer and is linked to 15 cancer types. Unfortunately, smoking prevalence is still close to 40 per cent in some groups in Scotland, and it is a greater cause of health inequality than social position. It is responsible for half the difference in life expectancy between those from the most and those from the least deprived backgrounds.\nSmoking cessation services are extremely important in reducing smoking prevalence. NHS stop smoking services are successful in reaching people from communities that have a lower success rate in quitting smoking. My mum was a smoker for 40 years, and she has been able to stop with help from the local NHS stop smoking service. She has achieved non-smoking status for the past 10 years, which is fantastic.\nCancer Research UK is calling on the Scottish Government to ensure local and national investment in the quit your way services so that they are maintained for the duration of Scotland\u2019s five-year tobacco control strategy, and I echo those calls. Last year, the Scottish Government published \u201cA healthier future: Scotland\u2019s diet and healthy weight delivery plan\u201d, which was backed by \u00a342 million of investment and has the aim of improving the health of the people of Scotland. It has a particular focus on obesity, which in Scotland is the second-biggest cause of cancer after smoking. Obesity is linked to 13 types of cancer, such as breast and bowel cancers and some of the hardest to treat ones, such as pancreatic and oesophageal cancers. Pancreatic cancer is particularly difficult to diagnose. I recognise my colleague Clare Adamson\u2019s continued efforts to highlight pancreatic cancer, and I am sure that she will expand more on that in her speech.\nIt is interesting to note that only one in four Scots knows that being overweight could put them at risk of cancer, which is particularly concerning given that Scotland has among the highest levels of obesity in the UK and that we are among the heaviest nations in Europe. I was therefore pleased that the Scottish Government published \u201cA healthier future\u201d, which sets out 67 action points, including reducing excessive junk food consumption, improving the health of our young people and providing better and easier access to healthier food for families on a low income, all of which are extremely welcome steps. Additionally, the plan calls on the UK Government to bring about a change to broadcasting laws to restrict the promotion of certain foods on television. I ask the Scottish Government to continue to push the UK Government to do that as soon as possible.\nLast week, I, along with other members, had the privilege of taking part in a photograph for the organisation Make 2nds Count, and I was pleased to meet Lisa Fleming, who is the founder of the group. Make 2nds Count is a charity in Edinburgh that was created to raise funds to support women and men with secondary breast cancer. One of the charity\u2019s other principal aims is to raise awareness of secondary breast cancer. One woman described how she felt \u201cdiscarded\u201d and said:\n\u201cWe want to count, too. We need to be part of research and funding. I wouldn\u2019t be here today without being part of a Perjeta trial.\u201d\nAll the funds that Make 2nds Count raises go to the research team at the Medical Research Council institute of genetics and molecular medicine at the University of Edinburgh.\nI do not have time to mention all the organisations that carry out important work with cancer patients and their families, but I would like to recognise some of the ones in my South Scotland region. In Dumfries and Galloway alone, 1,130 people are living with cancer and we have 530 cancer deaths each year. Dumfries and Galloway has the cancer information and support centre, which is a joint venture between Macmillan Cancer Support, the Big Lottery Fund and NHS Dumfries and Galloway. It offers confidential counselling and support information on living with cancer and on treatment, complementary therapies, stress management and relaxation tips, as well as links to local support groups where people can come together to share their experiences or just have a bit of company.\nWe also have Ayrshire Hospice, which is based in Ayr and which helps adults in Ayrshire and Arran with life-limiting illnesses such as cancer and other neurological conditions.\nI thank the many organisations that are involved and that are made up of extremely hard-working volunteers and staff who work tirelessly together to support anyone who is affected by cancer. No single person, organisation or country will beat cancer on their own. We must all work together to make faster progress towards our goal of three out of four people surviving cancer by 2034. This year\u2019s world cancer day theme is unity\u2014it is about uniting people, communities, researchers and Governments to raise awareness and take action. We must unite in the fight against cancer.\nI remind members who wish to speak in the debate to have a wee check whether they have pressed their request-to-speak buttons, because uptake seems to be very low.\nI thank Emma Harper for securing the debate, and I thank all the organisations that have provided briefings for it.\nI found the story of Emma Harper\u2019s sister, Buffy, lovely and uplifting. The member has outlined what happened; my point is that, as the various campaigns go forward and as we encourage our fellow Scots to buy unity bands and raise funds for clinical research, it is vital that we show the human side to this issue.\nThere cannot be many in the chamber who have not been touched by cancer or who do not have their own cancer story to tell. I shared mine in my maiden speech, when I talked about losing my mother to breast cancer when I was seven. World cancer day therefore presents an opportunity for all of us to recommit ourselves and our country to tackling cancer and ensuring that people who have cancer live as long and as good a life as possible.\nYesterday, as part of world cancer day, I and the public health minister visited the Edinburgh Maggie\u2019s centre and the Edinburgh cancer research centre. I pay tribute to all the charities and volunteers across Scotland who work to support people\u2014and their families\u2014as they go through a cancer journey. I know that we are all wearing our unity bands, and I pay tribute to everyone who has helped to fundraise in whatever way and to support cancer charities in delivering vital care and undertaking research.\nYesterday, I also met a constituent from Livingston who was about to start a five-week treatment for bowel cancer. She highlighted a number of points that I think are key to the debate, which I said that I would raise this evening. We have fantastic cancer centres, but we often forget the challenges that are faced by those who are undergoing cancer treatment, some of which I have been struck by in conversations that I have had. The issue is not necessarily the treatment itself, but aspects such as transport. There have been certain demographic changes in Scotland, with a number of adults not having children and a larger percentage of people living on their own, and those commencing their cancer treatment are told that they will need someone to drive them places, help them with tasks or support them at home. The message that came over loud and clear from my constituent was that, in her case, that someone did not exist.\nIt is therefore important that we develop a truly holistic approach to those who are living with cancer and understand what they are going through in their treatment. Although we, in Scotland, have been world leading in the development of Maggie\u2019s centres and in the work of other charities in the field, it is still an area that we should look at and where we can improve. An ask that I make of the minister relates to the cancer patient experience survey. It has provided a great opportunity for us to hear about and learn from people\u2019s experiences, and I ask that any future surveys be fully funded.\nOn the subject of breast cancer, I, too, was delighted to meet the remarkable ladies from Make 2nds Count last week. I have been campaigning with some of those ladies on other issues, and I find it remarkable that, given everything that they are going through, they can still campaign with such guts and strength. However, I know from those with whom I have campaigned as part of the Perjeta campaign that secondary breast cancer is still very much forgotten about and an issue that needs to be discussed as we look at how we can improve research in this area. Only 5 to 9 per cent of national breast cancer research funding goes towards secondary breast cancer, and that situation has to change.\nNevertheless, there is no question but that there is good news to tell about breast cancer. Indeed, the statistics show that the mortality rate has improved dramatically over the past few decades. In Scotland, the rate in 2017 was 32.5 per 100,000 people whereas, in 1992, the rate was 53.5 per 100,000 people. As a nation, we have made real progress.\nCan you start to wind up, please?\nWorld cancer day presents us with an opportunity to look at what is happening not only in Scotland but globally. I recently attended a conference in Oxford, where I met some Syrian cancer specialists. They told me about the tragedy of what is happening in their country\u2014about the loss of all their national health services and how that has diminished their opportunity to treat patients. What they hoped for on a day-to-day basis was just to have access to electricity. How we tackle such issues globally is important. One of the facts that they gave me was the number of the people in the world with cancer who have no pain relief whatsoever.\nCan you come to a close, please?\nThat situation is something that we and all those who are involved in world cancer day should consider so that we can collectively address it.\nI forgot to say that the speeches should be four minutes long, but I point that out now. We have a lot of speeches to get through.\nI, too, congratulate Emma Harper on securing this debate on world cancer day. I also pay tribute to Emma\u2019s sister, Buffy, for her fight against breast cancer. Anyone who knows Buffy cannot fail to be impressed by her outgoing personality and optimism. We are all really pleased by her recovery.\nI wanted to speak in the debate to pay tribute to Buffy and to the hundreds of thousands of people who are affected by cancer. Cancer Research UK and Emma Harper have pointed out that survival rates for cancer have improved significantly in the past two decades, which is in no small part due to the work of Cancer Research UK. A lot of that work is going on here, in Scotland, in our world-leading universities.\nI have decided to support that work this month by signing up to Cancer Research UK\u2019s sugar free February campaign, which aims to beat cancer and sugar cravings. I have a hopelessly sweet tooth, but it did not take long for me to stop missing chocolate, cakes and even white wine, which is full of sugar. Of course, we know that, as Emma Harper said, being overweight can increase the risk of getting a range of cancers, so going sugar free sends an important message. I balance that, though, by saying that I have known many fit, slim, healthy people who led impeccable lifestyles but who got cancer. Cancer can therefore be as illogical as it can be unfair, which is also why we need more research.\nThrough my sugar free February fundraising, I have raised \u00a3160 so far. If I can convert a few of those pounds sterling raised into pounds and stones lost, I will be a very happy woman. Here is my pitch: I know that there might be quite a few people in the chamber\u2014not least my political opponents\u2014who would appreciate seeing less of me; now they can achieve that by heading for my Cancer Research UK giving page on Facebook and Twitter. I will move on from that shameless pitch.\nThis is a day on which to remember that many people survive cancer and that the survival rates are, as we have heard, improving all the time. However, there are still huge challenges.\nI will finish by talking about my most recent experience of cancer, which illustrates an issue that we need to talk about more: cancer in older people. My father, Jim, died of an unspecified cancer aged 83. He was a very fit and healthy man who never sat down. He was also a carer who contributed to his community and his church, and, like many older people, he spent his retirement making a difference to his family and the people around him. I know that we were lucky to have him for so long. Miles Briggs talked about losing his mother when he was a child, and many people who lost loved ones much earlier will probably wish that they had had their mum or dad as long as I had my dad. However, cancer in older people can be devastating\u2014it is not true that it always progresses more slowly in older people. That was not the case with my dad\u2019s illness, because he was dead within a few weeks of his diagnosis and he suffered greatly.\nCancer affects a lot of older people. The number of people over 75 who are diagnosed with cancer is expected to rise by 80 per cent in the next 20 years, and the majority of cancer patients at the moment are over 65. Understanding the differences in how cancer develops and behaves in older people is an urgent issue for researchers. I was therefore very pleased to see the briefing from Cancer Research UK on its 2018 report \u201cAdvancing Care, Advancing Years: Improving cancer treatment and care for an ageing population.\u201d\nOlder people respond in different ways to both chemotherapy and pain relief. If there is no understanding of that, we cannot treat them effectively. Despite the prevalence of cancer in the elderly, treatment studies rarely include people older than 70, which means that doctors do not have clear guidance on what works best for such patients. One geriatrician said:\n\u201cIn geriatrics, we are always having to extrapolate from treatment guidelines based on younger people, but the gap is most extreme in cancer care.\u201d\nAs our population ages, that is no longer acceptable. Older people live worthwhile lives\u2014like my father, they are often the lynchpins of their community as, for example, volunteers and family carers. I am pleased that progress is being made and that the issue is being recognised, and I hope that, in the next 20 years, we see advances in cancer care for everybody who suffers from the disease, no matter what age they are.\nI thank Emma Harper for bringing the debate to the chamber. We all have a friend or relative\u2014a wife, partner or child\u2014who has been affected by cancer. On the face of it, the disease does not discriminate: it impacts on people, be they black, white, young, old, male or female. However, this is a day for telling our stories because that is the way in which we understand and empathise with people who are affected.\nCancer can be a brutal, uncompromising thing. My own da was a big bear of a man who worked as a bricklayer all his life. Cancer took him 15 years ago, at the age of 64. He was reduced to a shell of his former self as the disease worked its way through his body, and I miss him every day. Like too many people in communities such as mine, his life was cut short well before his time because of this disease.\nHowever, the experience of dealing with cancer can also be life affirming and uplifting. When my wife Fiona was diagnosed with breast cancer three years ago\u2014she is wearing my unity band today\u2014I feared the worst. I wondered whether my dad\u2019s experience would be repeated. However, every day I thank the NHS staff, our family, friends and colleagues, every god that exists and\u2014most important\u2014my wife for that not happening and for the fact that today she is back to full fitness and is well. She was lucky but she was also fantastically and skilfully looked after by Dr Barber, nurse Laura and the entire team at the St John\u2019s oncology unit and the Western General radiotherapy unit.\nAlthough the experience of my dad and other relatives, friends, neighbours and constituents has often been grim, brutal and life ending, for others, it can be life changing for positive reasons. Following the tears and emotion of my wife\u2019s diagnosis, within a few days our house was full of cards, flowers and visitors, with people offering their help and support. However, we could not help but reflect on how fortunate we were. How many people are there in all the communities that members represent who get a cancer diagnosis\u2014maybe a terminal diagnosis\u2014and return to a cold, empty house with no cards or flowers and who barely see a visitor or get any offers of help and support?\nThink of the feeling of being told that you have cancer and having no one to talk to about it, no one to share your fears or tears, no one to go with you to hospital, make you a cup of tea, sit with you during chemo or take you on the 26-mile journey to the Western General every day for radiotherapy. Trying to imagine that brutal loneliness haunts me every time I think about it.\nMy ambition\u2014like all of us here in the week of world cancer day\u2014is of course that we find a cure, but it is also that we improve prevention, especially in the most deprived communities in Scotland, where the mortality rate is 60 to 70 per cent higher, which is absolutely scandalous. That is where cancer discriminates\u2014in communities such as the one where I live. I want us to get a grip on waiting times and I want us to show that addressing a disease that will affect one in two of our population over their lifetime is really, genuinely and truly a national priority.\nAlison Johnstone (Lothian) (Green):\nI start by declaring that I am currently enjoying my third sugar-free February and I am finding it easier this year\u2014and it is already 5 February.\nWorld cancer day is not the only time that we can reflect on what we can do better to reduce the incidence of cancer and to improve survival rates and the quality of cancer care, but it is an important opportunity to step back and take stock\u2014to reflect not only on how far we have come, but on how much more we have to do. I, too, thank Emma Harper for giving members in the chamber that opportunity today and I thank her sister Buffy for her inspiration.\nAs the motion notes, 40 per cent of cancers are preventable and being more physically active can play an important role in reducing cancer risk. We know that physical exercise helps to tackle obesity, which is the second biggest risk factor, but evidence shows that being more active can help to reduce cancer risk through other mechanisms too, such as by improving our digestive function, which can reduce the risk of colon cancer. There is approximately a 30 per cent lower risk of colon cancer and a 20 per cent lower risk of breast cancer associated with being active every day.\nActive travel, and cycling in particular, is associated with the reduced risk of cancer. A 2017 study by the University of Glasgow looked at the impact of travelling to work by bike and on foot and found that commuting by bike, even partially, was associated with a lower risk of adverse health outcomes, including several cancers. Therefore, physical activity is really important for people who are waiting for, having or recovering from treatment. For example, exercising while undergoing cancer treatment can help to prevent decline in physical function and control cancer-related fatigue. We have to do all that we can to make sure that such activity is available for everyone. The Scottish health survey shows that 65 per cent of adults meet\n\u201cthe guidelines for Moderate or Physical Vigorous Activity\u201d,\nbut that the figure falls to 56 per cent in our most deprived communities.\nMembers have heard me talk about investment in active travel before and I will raise it in the chamber again. Many car journeys in Scotland are short, and those journeys could be undertaken on foot or by bike: 33 per cent of such journeys are between 1 and 2 miles and 11 per cent are less than a mile. Let us promote walking and cycling because, in doing so, we reduce risks of cancer.\nThe motion rightly draws attention to the doubling of cancer survival rates over the past 40 years but, as Neil Findlay pointed out, an individual\u2019s chances of getting and surviving cancer are still very much influenced by their socioeconomic situation. The incidence of cancer is more common in the most deprived areas of Scotland. Incidence rates have typically been 30 to 50 per cent higher in the most deprived areas than in the least deprived areas. The Macmillan Cancer Support and NHS National Services Scotland report, \u201cDeprivation and Cancer Survival in Scotland: Technical Report\u201d found that mortality from cancer is highest among those who are from the 20 per cent most deprived communities and that the difference was statistically significant for eight cancers, including breast, liver and lung cancers.\nAs the motion notes, early detection is one of the keys to successful treatment. We are still not doing enough to ensure that Scots who are experiencing deprivation are accessing screening programmes and I would be grateful if the minister could comment on that in his closing speech.\nI thank the incredible campaigners from Make 2nds Count; I think that their visit last week had an impact on each and every one of us. I thank all those who work with the 50 per cent of us who have cancer. My mum was diagnosed with myeloma\u2014a blood cancer\u2014in 2014. She had a stem-cell transplant and is currently having her three-monthly check with haematology. She is very grateful to two Macmillan nurses who are based in Wester Hailes healthy living centre and she has spoken of not only the health support, but the support in so many other areas, from nutrition to exercise, to entitlements, to transport, to support in getting a blue badge\u2014absolutely everything is covered. I thank all those people who are involved in helping people who have the disease.\nWorld cancer day is a time to reflect on the huge progress that we have made in learning about a disease that will have an impact on about 50 per cent of Scots. I look forward to hearing more from the minister in his closing speech about how we can tackle it together.\nI know that people have a lot to say in this debate and a number of members still wish to speak. Therefore, I am happy to accept a motion without notice, under rule 8.14.3, to extend the debate by up to 30 minutes. I ask Emma Harper to move the motion.\nThat, under Rule 8.14.3, the debate be extended by up to 30 minutes.\u2014[Emma Harper]\nI congratulate my friend and colleague Emma Harper on securing this important and timely debate. The motion is succinct and Emma Harper laid out further background in her opening speech.\nI am not going to stand here and profess that I am an expert in the field of cancer, because I am clearly not, but cancer knocks on the door of many households indiscriminately. As the motion says, one in two people will get cancer in their lifetime. That may appear to be a high number, but I am not aware of many families who have not been affected by cancer. We all welcome the increase in survival rates, but we recognise that that has not happened by chance. That is why research is so important and why the investment to fund that research is crucial.\nWe received various briefing notes prior to the debate, and I thank all the organisations that work and help in the cancer field. The figures that those organisations highlight about research indicate not only how much is spent, but the journey that we still have to go on to beat cancer. Cancer Research UK spent \u00a338 million last year and Breast Cancer Now spent just over \u00a316 million, so it is clear that the sector is working hard. I thank everyone involved in cancer research and those who work with patients to provide them with the expert care, attention and information that they require every day.\nEvery year, MSPs don a bit of pink for wear it pink day to raise awareness of breast cancer and raise funds for breast cancer research. I admit that we can look a bit ridiculous, but it is for a good cause. When the photo appears, my constituents see the funny side, and all, apart from one, appreciate the fun element that highlights the serious message. In my constituency, I have dealings with Marie Curie and Macmillan Cancer Support and I appreciate everything that they do to help make the lives of my constituents better and more comfortable.\nI take a slightly cold position on cancer\u2014I tend to approach it in a state of defiance. It might mean that I do not show enough emotion when I talk about cancer or work with others on the issue, but that is my self-defence mechanism. I need to try to remain as impersonal as possible about cancer. I know, and have known, too many people with cancer; some have managed to beat it and others have not. I admire and cherish those who have survived and continue with their lives, usually with a different perspective.\nEmma Harper talked about social media and television. TV programmes play a hugely important role in portraying a message. \u201cCold Feet\u201d is on STV at the moment, and one of its characters, Jenny, played by the wonderful Fay Ripley, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I have not seen last night\u2019s episode, but I will see it later in the week. The connection that the characters have with the audience is testimony to the excellent writing and acting. The breast cancer storyline is extremely powerful and highlights not only the importance of talking about breast cancer, early diagnosis of cancer and treatment, but the mental challenge of facing up to and dealing with cancer. That is where the media have such an important part to play, and I thank the programme makers for introducing that storyline so carefully and sensitively.\nYesterday was world cancer day, but cancer day starts for someone new every single day. I thank Emma Harper once again for securing the debate and, once again, I thank everyone working in the field for their efforts to improve research into cancer and the treatment of the disease. One day, society will defeat this awful, indiscriminate disease forever.\nMark McDonald (Aberdeen Donside) (Ind):\nI congratulate Emma Harper on securing this important debate. She listed the ways in which we can protect ourselves against cancer, for example by not smoking, by cutting down on alcohol, by losing weight and by taking more exercise. As a non-smoking teetotaller who has managed to lose three stone in the past year and is currently in training for two marathons, I appear to tick plenty of those boxes.\nWorld cancer day yesterday was a very poignant day for me and my family, because 4 February 2019 marked the second anniversary of my father\u2019s death. I want to say a bit more about the circumstances of my dad\u2019s cancer, which I have mentioned previously in a question to the minister. Neil Findlay quite rightly said that this is an opportunity for us to tell our stories. My father\u2019s story has a very important message attached to it, which I think it is beneficial for me to relate.\nMy dad worked for a large part of the year in Africa; he had a business interest in Ghana. Just prior to returning to Africa, he noticed, under his false teeth at the base of his mouth, what he thought was an ulcer. As he had false teeth, he tended not to visit the dentist and did not have regular oral health check-ups. For many people, there is often a misconception that if they do not have their own teeth, they do not need to go to the dentist. Anas Sarwar has left the chamber, but as the resident dentist in Holyrood, I am sure that he would attest to the fact that dental checks are about much more than just checking that teeth are okay\u2014they are about wider oral health.\nMy dad dismissed it and went off to Africa. He was due back for the period that would span his 60th birthday, when we were going to have a big party and celebration. He arrived with a very large growth on his jaw, which he had initially dismissed as probably the result of an insect bite to which his face had reacted. After some time\u2014and nagging from my mother\u2014he eventually made an appointment to see the emergency dentist. From that, he was quickly referred to the maxillofacial clinic, from which he was referred for a biopsy. During this process, I began to join the dots and realise that we were probably heading towards the destination of a cancer diagnosis, but we read so much in the news about cancers being caught early and people being treated effectively and recovering. We have heard this evening some fantastic and inspiring stories about people\u2019s recovery journeys.\nHowever, in June 2016, my father received the diagnosis of cancer and was told that it had developed to a stage at which there was no hope of recovery. Neil Findlay spoke about the effect of cancer on his father. It was exceptionally difficult to watch my father\u2014a man who was always making jokes and making people laugh, and who had himself the most infectious laugh\u2014slowly losing the ability to communicate, to speak and be understood, and to watch the frustration when he tried to make conversation but could not be readily understood because of the effect that oral cancer was having on him.\nIn 2017, the year my father passed away, oral cancer deaths in NHS Grampian rose from 21 to 28\u2014I have made that point to the minister in the chamber. NHS Grampian officials told me that late presentation is often a key factor. I often think back and wonder, what if my dad had gone to be seen more quickly? What if he had had regular dental check-ups? What if he had taken the steps that might have identified the cancer earlier? Would he still be here with us, laughing, joking, playing with his grandchildren and enjoying time with his family and friends? We do not know for definite, but it would certainly have increased his chances.\nA key message that I want to send\u2014and that I have tried to send since my father\u2019s passing, in particular during the recent mouth cancer awareness month\u2014is that if people notice anything unusual, even if they think that it is nothing, they must go and get it checked. People who are qualified can tell us whether it is nothing; if it is something, it is better to know and get it dealt with. If we leave it until later, that often means leaving it until it is too late.\nClare Adamson (Motherwell and Wishaw) (SNP):\nI thank Emma Harper for bringing the debate to the chamber. I am feeling a tad emotional\u2014lots of members have shared personal experiences. My dad died of cancer, so I found Mark McDonald\u2019s contribution to be particularly moving. I thank him, Neil Findlay and the others who have shared their experiences. It is a very brave thing to do.\nI also thank my friend and colleague Hannah Bardell MP, who recently had her smear-test recall to hospital and experienced the worries that surround that. She has campaigned tirelessly for years for the Michelle Henderson Cervical Cancer Trust. Michelle was a young woman and friend of Hannah\u2019s from her constituency who died in her twenties from cervical cancer. Hannah has used her own recent experience to remind young women in particular how important it is to take up the offer when we are offered screenings. Among young women, the rate of taking up screening opportunities has fallen, recently. Given all the work that has been done to help people, it is very important that people take up the opportunities so that we can prevent cancers from developing.\nEmma Harper mentioned that I have a particular interest in pancreatic cancer. I have that interest because of the Begley family from Lanarkshire, who shared their experience of their father\u2019s cancer with me, and through my colleague Nicola McManus, whose mum died from pancreatic cancer. I know that Nicky and her three children still feel that loss very deeply.\nI was not very aware of the issues around pancreatic cancer and, as we have heard today, everyone\u2019s individual cancer journey is unique to them, although there are trends and statistics that we can talk about. I will move on to those in a moment.\nAt the pancreatic cancer event that was held last year, only one survivor in the room had lived for more than 10 years after diagnosis. It is a stark reality of pancreatic cancer that the statistics have hardly changed in the past 50 years. Great work is going on to try to reverse that trend.\nI was delighted to meet the young leaders from the precision-panc research team at the Beatson west of Scotland cancer centre. The precision-panc programme is funded by Cancer Research UK, which I thank for all that it has done to promote world cancer day, and for the briefing for the debate. I also thank the Scottish Government. The programme seeks to make vital breakthroughs in pancreatic cancer research.\nIs pancreatic cancer unique? The five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer in Scotland is 5.6 per cent. That rate has increased by only 2.1 percentage points in the past 20 years. In 2016, 784 people were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in Scotland, and 719 people died of the illness. It has an incredible attrition rate. The cancer is quick\u2014its rapidity is staggering\u2014so we have to make some vital breakthroughs in order to change the situation. Although we celebrate every success\u2014everything that is happening and every survival\u2014we must recognise that in the case of pancreatic cancer there is much more to do.\nI thank Pancreatic Cancer UK for the work that it is doing. It has a petition to try to get the UK and Scottish Governments to increase treatment rates for cancer. In particular, it is asking that pancreatic cancer be treated as an oncological emergency in order to ensure that people get the vital treatment that they need more quickly.\nIt has been a particularly good and informative debate this evening. I thank everyone who has spoken. As I said, cancer is something that touches each and every one of us in our lives.\nTom Mason (North East Scotland) (Con):\nIt is a great privilege to speak in the debate, having spoken in the debate on the matter at the same time last year. I am grateful to Emma Harper for lodging the motion for us to debate.\nThe subject of today\u2019s debate is one that is close to the hearts of many members, perhaps through experiences with constituents, friends or family members. Improving outcomes for people with cancer is a goal that we share, and which crosses the normal political divides. That is why I, too, am pleased to mark world cancer day and to welcome the important progress that has been made in recent years and decades.\nAs the motion notes, there has been a marked change in survival rates over the past 40 years, which is in part down to advances in medical treatment and technology, as well as to the change in respect of our recognising the lifestyle factors that lead to cancer. In many cases, the changes that are needed to prevent cancer are fairly simple\u2014eating healthily, for example. Some changes are more challenging, such as stopping smoking, but we cannot overstate the importance of a change that can be the difference between life and death.\nHowever, as we look at the good progress and at the work that is being done, it is important that we consider where we could do better. One of the key markers is the Scottish Government\u2019s 95 per cent target for the 62-day standard from referral to treatment. According to the latest statistics, only two health boards have managed to meet that target, with NHS Grampian, in my region, coming in at just 76.6 per cent. NHS Grampian also falls behind on the target for treatment within 31 days of the decision to treat: it is at 90.5 per cent against a target of 95 per cent.\nIn Scotland more generally, in the last published quarterly information the national average for treatment within 62 days of referral fell from 84.6 per cent to 81.4 per cent. Set against the 95 per cent target, the figures are simply not good enough. There comes a point when good will and good wishes do not cut it: we must see improvement, and we need to see it fast.\nI feel that there is another consideration\u2014the quality of life of cancer survivors. Let us be in no doubt that even when it is successful, cancer treatment frequently has long-term side effects that can cause substantial physical and psychological damage. Having been on the receiving end myself, I think that more attention could be paid to making sure that patients who receive treatment can live their lives as comfortably as possible, so I would welcome any work that can be done in that regard.\nNo one doubts that this is a vital issue that should command our full attention. Important work is being done, and it should continue, but there are areas in which improvement is needed. It is estimated that by 2027 about 40,000 cases of cancer will be discovered in Scotland every year. It is vital that we transform services in order to deliver better and more supportive care, and that we use resources wisely.\nI welcome the debate and I hope that we can make the changes that we need in order to ensure that progress over the next 40 years exceeds what we have become used to in the past.\nGillian Martin (Aberdeenshire East) (SNP):\nI thank my friend Emma Harper for bringing this debate to the chamber and for sharing her online story of her lovely sister Buffy to raise awareness, and I thank the constituents who have been affected by cancer who got in touch to ask me to take part in today\u2019s debate.\nThere are so many aspects that we could cover in a debate such as this. I want to concentrate on one of the third sector agencies in my area that works with those with a cancer diagnosis and their families\u2014CLAN Cancer Support. A few months ago, I spent some time at CLAN in Inverurie with a few people and their families who have used its services. I thank the manager, Fiona Cormack, her team and everyone whom I met for making me so welcome.\nThe phrase \u201cused their services\u201d\u2014as I realised when I wrote it\u2014does not seem adequate to describe people\u2019s relationship with CLAN. When I was there, I met families who told me how CLAN had supported them in all manner of ways while their loved ones were seriously ill. I met cancer patients dealing with the trauma of their diagnosis who needed pastoral care that cannot easily be provided\u2014and which it is sometimes not appropriate to deliver\u2014in a healthcare setting. I met people who had lost loved ones to cancer and continued to visit the centre months and years later for emotional and practical support.\nWhat is CLAN and what does it do? What it does not do would be easier to cover. CLAN does what it can to provide whatever a person needs\u2014whatever they come and ask CLAN to help them with. That could be advice and support, including advice on finances; simple friendship and community; opportunities to share experiences with others with cancer diagnoses; and no shortage of listening ears. CLAN provides complementary therapies such as massage and aromatherapy, too; the sort of thing that can give a person a bit of respite from medical procedures and the stress of their condition. The centre has therapy rooms that are just outstanding. CLAN also has support groups for particular groups. There is one for children and one for teenagers who are affected by cancer.\nOne group whom I met at the centre was a men\u2019s group, who were just back from a walk. They meet up once a week for a walk, a cup of tea and a chat about anything\u2014they were discussing music when I butted in. Two of them took the opportunity to give me some casework, which had nothing whatsoever to do with their health. The group is there for friendship and support. It happens to be made up of a range of people who are affected by cancer\u2014people who are currently dealing with diagnosis and treatment, those in recovery from cancer and a couple of people whose connection to CLAN and the group was through a family member. One regular visitor was the widower of a woman who had died over a year ago, who pops in regularly for a chat with the friends that he has made there. Hospitals cannot provide that sort of thing. That is why third sector organisations such as CLAN are needed.\nCLAN also operates in the north of my constituency in Turriff, where it has to meet in the local library\u2014CLAN Turriff does not have the fantastic facility that CLAN Inverurie has\u2014and our paths often cross, as I hold a constituency surgery there. Although it might not have the facilities of CLAN Inverurie, it offers the same support. As in Inverurie, there are monthly coffee mornings at which people can meet and catch up.\nThere is no manual on how to cope with a diagnosis of cancer\u2014either for the person who receives the diagnosis or for their family and friends. I spoke to many people at CLAN and what came up time and again was the relief that people felt when they found CLAN. They reflected on what they would have done if they had not had it to turn to for support when they needed it.\nIt struck me that for every person who finds out what CLAN does, there will be another person who needs the charity but has not found it yet. That is why I wanted to make CLAN the focus of my speech. I want everyone in my area to know that CLAN is there. They might be fortunate enough never to have to walk through CLAN\u2019s door, but thank goodness because it is there for the people who do.\nMonica Lennon (Central Scotland) (Lab):\nI am grateful to Emma Harper for lodging the motion and giving us the opportunity to come together to mark world cancer day. The motion mentions the unity band; the Parliament has united this evening, because we are all touched by cancer.\nWe have heard a mixture of sad stories\u2014of people who have lost loved ones\u2014and hopeful stories, such as those of Emma Harper\u2019s sister Buffy and Alison Johnstone\u2019s mum, who I hope is doing well. My mum has had her own cancer journey recently. She is going back to work tomorrow, after having had an operation a few months ago.\nPeople often think that politicians are out of touch and do not understand the issues, but I think that all members could have taken part in this debate without receiving a briefing. However, we are all grateful to Macmillan Cancer Support, Cancer Research UK and Breast Cancer Now for their helpful briefings. Of course, we are also grateful for the brilliant jobs that they do to support families who are affected by cancer, and for their tireless campaigning and fundraising.\nLike other members, I pay tribute to and thank our wonderful NHS staff who support people and their families through this difficult illness. In the past two years, my family has certainly had its money\u2019s worth\u2014and probably a bit more\u2014out of the NHS.\nCancer used to be a taboo subject, which carried a lot of stigma\u2014families did not talk about it. I am glad that that is changing. Survival rates are improving and there have been positive campaigns to tackle the stigma, such as Breast Cancer Now\u2019s wear it pink campaign, which is a lot of fun, and the work of Jo\u2019s Cervical Cancer Trust to encourage women to go for smear tests. I was grateful to members who took part in my members\u2019 business debate last month to mark cervical cancer awareness week.\nGroundbreaking cancer research would not be possible without the incredible fundraising efforts of people in our communities. I see that in my region. Just last week, I picked up the local paper, the Hamilton Advertiser, and read that the Hamilton Bowling Club ladies section had raised \u00a33,000 for Cancer Research UK. Generosity like that happens day in and day out.\nMembers talked about the third sector and volunteering. I was pleased that Miles Briggs mentioned transport. The Lanarkshire Cancer Care Trust was invaluable to my mum, who did not want to rely on family members having to fit in with her appointments. She was able to make a donation to the volunteer group who ran what she affectionately called \u201cthe cancer bus\u201d. The other people who used the bus were experiencing the same thing and could understand what she was going through, and the driver was expert at getting through the traffic and to the right department\u2014my mum had to go to the Beatson west of Scotland cancer centre, University hospital Hairmyres and other places. Even when someone has a family to go home to, they might not always want to open up to their family, as Neil Findlay said. For my mum, that service was really important.\nOn another positive point, I am pleased that recent stats show that the majority of patients in Lanarkshire have been treated within the treatment time standard. However, that is not the experience nationally, in relation to diagnosis. Perhaps when the minister makes the closing speech he will update the Parliament on that. The cross-party group on cancer has been doing good work in that regard. We all want to support the system to keep improving.\nAs members said, there is a lot that we can do to prevent cancer. We have to focus on that, but we must also make sure that our strategies and policies are realistic and that we make it easy for people to make lifestyle changes, by considering the barriers that people face in making healthier choices.\nWe have seen great progress. We know that we can do tremendous things in the Parliament\u2014there is the smoking ban, for example. My gran, whom I loved very much and miss dearly after 16 years, was a heavy smoker. She was a barmaid and worked in smoke-filled working men\u2019s clubs and pubs, and she died of lung cancer. I remember her every day through my daughter, Isabella, who is called after her. I hope that we will see less of such things.\nI thank everyone for their contributions.\nThe Minister for Public Health, Sport and Wellbeing (Joe FitzPatrick):\nI thank Emma Harper for securing this important debate. I am pleased to join her and other members in wearing a unity band.\nThe debate provides us with an opportunity to reflect on the preventable causes of cancer and the steps that all of us can take to reduce the impact of that terrible disease. It is fitting that we should have this debate following world cancer day, yesterday. The day is intended to target misinformation, raise awareness and tackle the stigma that is often associated with cancer. The day is important for those who are currently affected by cancer, for reducing the number of people who develop cancer in the first place, for detecting cancer at the earliest possible stages and for supporting those who have a cancer diagnosis and their families and friends.\nI was pleased to mark world cancer day, yesterday, by visiting Maggie\u2019s Edinburgh. My path crossed that of Miles Briggs. Like him, I really appreciated the time that people took to speak to us around the kitchen table. Maggie\u2019s is one example of the many organisations that do fantastic work. Gillian Martin mentioned CLAN, and other members have mentioned Macmillan nurses. There are many organisations that do a lot of good work, and I thank them all.\nI was also pleased to speak at the Scottish cancer prevention network conference yesterday. That is an important gathering of world experts on cancer prevention who are largely based in Scotland. We can be proud that our NHS and academic institutions are working together to highlight the issues and to help everyone in Scotland to live healthier lives. The conference highlighted projects such as the ActWELL project, which is led by Professor Annie Anderson of the University of Dundee. It encourages women across Scotland who attend breast screening programmes to reduce their risk of developing breast cancer by taking up physical activity\u2014Alison Johnstone mentioned that\u2014eating healthily and losing weight. It is delivered in partnership with Breast Cancer Now volunteers, it is supported by the Scottish Government and it is making a real difference to women across Scotland, including in my constituency.\nI assure all members that the Scottish Government is determined to play its part in tackling cancer. The current projections from Cancer Research UK tell us that one in two people in the UK born after 1960 will be affected by cancer. We need to reduce that figure over time and ensure that the right support is in place to help those who are affected by cancer. Significant progress has been made over the past 10 years. Overall, the cancer mortality rate has fallen by 11 per cent; however, more needs to be done to reduce the risk factors associated with cancer.\nOur \u00a3100 million cancer strategy \u201cBeating Cancer: Ambition and Action\u201d sets out our ambitions for the future of cancer services in Scotland to improve the prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment and aftercare of those who are affected by all forms of cancer. Research is important, of course, and Scotland is to the fore in that area. Clare Adamson mentioned the precision-panc project. The Scottish Government has committed some \u00a34 million to the precision medicine ecosystem, including \u00a3700,000 of direct funding for the precision-panc project. That project can potentially make a real difference by ensuring that cancer treatment\u2014particularly for pancreatic cancers, but for other cancers as well\u2014is based on the genetics of the individual patient\u2019s tumour. There is real potential for progress there.\nIt is also important that the whole journey is as positive as it can be. That is why the cancer patient survey, which Miles Briggs mentioned, is important. I am pleased to say that we concluded our cancer patient survey in December and expect to publish the results in the spring. We will use the results to identify the gaps in services and then focus on addressing them.\nGillian Martin mentioned the holistic support that is available for people with cancer. That is an important part of our cancer strategy. I hope that the cancer patient survey will help us to get that right so that people get the support that they need. Organisations such as CLAN Cancer Support are very useful in helping us to do that.\nAs Emma Harper said, it is estimated that four in 10 cancer cases could be prevented. That can be done largely though lifestyle changes such as not smoking, maintaining a healthy body weight, eating a healthy and balanced diet, reducing alcohol intake, protecting our skin from sunburn and keeping active.\nNeil Findlay rightly made the point that we have a higher mortality rate in our most deprived communities. In each of our strategies on tackling smoking and drinking and on promoting healthy eating, we focus on tackling that health inequality. If I have time, I will talk about some of the success that we have had in that regard and the strategies more generally.\nSmoking is the first area in which we have seen success. Just one in five adults now smokes, and the number of 15-year-olds who smoke regularly has dropped by more than two thirds in the past decade. It is clear that smoking is still more prevalent in more deprived areas, but the level of smoking is reducing.\nEmma Harper asked about stop-smoking services. I assure her that there is no intention to reduce those services, for which we provide about \u00a310 million of funding annually to health boards. That is important, because we are perhaps getting to the point at which those people who have not given up smoking need more support, and most of them are in the most deprived areas.\nAs we have heard, obesity is the second-largest preventable cause of cancer. According to Cancer Research UK, it is linked to about 2,200 cases a year in Scotland. It is really important that we make progress in reducing diet-related health inequalities. One of the first things that I did as the public health minister was launch \u201cA healthier future: Scotland\u2019s diet and healthy weight delivery plan\u201d in order to tackle the issue by focusing on prevention.\nAn area in which we have to work together is foods that are high in fat, salt and sugar. Our consultation on that issue has just closed. We asked about restrictions on multibuy promotions, placement at checkouts and product promotions. That is a really important area in which this Parliament can help our population and make it easier for people to make healthier choices.\nA number of members asked about screening and early detection. We know that the early detection of cancer leads to a better prognosis, and our national cancer screening programmes continue to work towards identifying bowel, breast and cervical cancers at the earliest stages. However, as Alison Johnstone and Neil Findlay rightly mentioned, the uptake of screening is lower in areas of deprivation.\nTime is tight, so I will talk about one screening test. Scotland was the first country in the UK to introduce a simpler bowel screening test called the faecal immunochemical test\u2014FIT. Since its introduction in November 2017, we have seen increased levels of participation in the bowel screening programme, and statistics that were published today show that we have exceeded the 60 per cent uptake target for the first time. That is really important.\nOne of the most important things is that the biggest improvement has been among those who live in the most deprived areas, where uptake has increased by 10 per cent. As somebody said, we encourage those who have a bowel test kit sitting in a drawer at home or who receive one in the weeks to come to please take the time to complete it and post it in, because it could save their life.\nMonica Lennon asked about diagnostics, and we continue to look at how we can improve that area. In particular, we are looking at the development of rapid diagnostic and assessment centres, which are being piloted in England. The final report on the pilot is due to be published later this year, and our Scottish cancer task force will consider the results and use them to learn where to improve our services.\nIn closing, I thank all the staff and volunteers who work tirelessly in our NHS and in the charity sector to deliver our strategies for cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment and to deliver support for people with a cancer diagnosis. The unending commitment of staff and volunteers is invaluable in driving back the disease.\nIn final conclusion, I give huge thanks to Emma Harper for lodging the motion for this important debate and to her and many others for sharing their personal stories, which are really important in such a debate. Thank you all very much.\nThat finally, finally concludes the debate.",

He graduated from Carlsbad High School and then joined the Air Force soon thereafter. His first assignment was in Japan as part of the national rebuilding efforts of the 5th Air Force. After various assignments in other locations (including two in Alaska), his work involved reconnaissance operations, which led to his training and entry into the computer technology field in 1962 as part of NORAD at Ent Air Force Base in Colorado Springs. He retired from military service in April 1968 as a Senior Master Sergeant and received the Air Force Commendation Medal. He then chose to work for Civil Service in a similar capacity for NORAD and then later Space Command, serving at several national defense posts in the Colorado Springs area, including the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. When he retired 20 years later as a Computer Program Analyst, it was never fully known exactly what his later work in the military or in Civil Service entailed as it was top secret. Nevertheless, it was understood that it had something to do with satellites and global monitoring for national security threats.\nWhile stationed in Japan, Eugene converted to Catholicism. His faith was a very important aspect of his daily living and gave him great comfort, especially in the last 14 years of his life as he dealt with the crushing effects of COPD and up till his death from the disease at Pikes Peak Hospice.\nFamily also meant a great deal to Eugene as his parents had divorced when he was 11 years old. He married Georgie Batdorf in October of 1962. They had four children: Theresa, Peggy (deceased), Daniel, and David. He had four granddaughters he adored as well: Trista Wussick, Jillian Wussick, Heaven Read, and Zavrielle Read.\nEugene was also his family\u2019s genealogist \u2013 an avocation he truly enjoyed and in which he made many great discoveries and maintained many key, detailed historical records. He was also an avid Broncos fan and the consummate gardener, creating much beauty and good food for his family on his home\u2019s 1/3 acre lot for much of his adult life. Perhaps his greatest legacy was that he was a kind, compassionate, and loving man who gave much to charity and would do anything for those he loved. He is truly missed, and his family looks forward to being with him again on the other side.\n~ Georgie A. Read, wife",

(File)\nLaunching a scathing attack on Rahul Gandhi, poll-bound Chhattishgarh's Chief Minister Raman Singh on Saturday alleged the Congress chief was \"sort of an entertainment\" for people in the state and his campaign could be detrimental to his own party.\nAhead of the crucial first phase of voting in the state on Monday, Mr Singh said Rahul Gandhi does not know anything about Chhattisgarh and his rallies would not help the Congress draw any significant votes.\nMr Singh's counter-attack came a day after the Congress president, during his election campaign on Friday, accused Mr Singh of indulging in graft and of doing any work only after taking \"permission from his 10-15 industrialist friends\".\n\"Rahul does not know anything about Chhattisgarh. People of Chhattisgarh do not take him seriously. He is sort of an entertainment for them,\" Mr Singh told PTI in an interview.\nMr Singh, who has been chief minister of the tribal-dominated state for a record 15 years out of its 18-year history, said Mr Gandhi's presence in the state would not dent poll prospects of the BJP, but might prove detrimental to his own Congress party.\nWhile there was no immediate comment from the Congress on the latest jibe at its party chief, the allegations levelled by various political parties have often become personal amid a rising election fever in the country's political landscape.\nWhile the Congress has been accusing the BJP-led governments at the Centre and in various states of indulging in crony capitalism, Mr Gandhi has launched an aggressive campaign centred around these charges for the five poll-bound states, including Chhattisgarh, which are being seen as semi-finals before the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.\nThe BJP has denied these charges and have levelled counter-allegations of corruption and crony-capitalism being things of past when the Congress was in power.\nMr Gandhi has been actively campaigning in Chhattisgarh where voting will be done in two phases \u2013 on November 12 for 18 seats (including 12 in naxal-affected areas) and on November 20 for the remaining 72 seats.\nVoting in MR Singh's own constituency Rajnandgaon, where the Congress has given ticket to late Atal Bihari Vajpayee's niece and former BJP leader Karuna Shukla, will also take place on Monday.\nDuring his campaign rallies on Friday, Gandhi had hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Singh over various issues, including lack of development in Chhattisgarh.\nMr Singh, who is eying a fourth term as chief minister, said Chhattisgarh has developed on all fronts contrary to what the Congress party claims.\n\"Chhattisgarh used to be a backward stage. In 15 years of the BJP rule, it has become one of the developed states. We are growing at a great pace and will soon be along top five developed states of the country,\" he said.\nTo a question on whether the BJP will lose votes due to an alliance between former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Ajit Jogi-led Janta Congress Chhattisgarh and Dalit leader Mayawati's Bahujan Samaj Party, Mr Singh said the BJP's vote share will remain intact despite the formation of this \"selfish coalition\".\n\"It is a selfish coalition and both the parties will not have any effect on the BJP votes,\" he said.\nOn the menace of Maoism, Mr Singh said Maoists in the state were living on life support.\n\"We have neutralised Naxalites and their agenda with our development work. Maoists in the state are living on life support. It will soon be over,\" the chief minister said.\nThe 66-year-old BJP veteran, who was a practising ayurvedic doctor before taking the plunge into politics in 1980s, became Chhattisgarh's chief minister in December 2003, after the saffron party snatched power from the Congress just about three years after the state was carved out of Madhya Pradesh.\nIn the 2013 election, the BJP got 49 seats while the Congress secured 39. The BSP got one, while one seat was won by an Independent candidate.\nPrevious article\u092d\u093e\u091c\u092a\u093e \u0935\u093f\u0930\u094b\u0927\u0940 \u092e\u0902\u091a \u092a\u0930 \u091a\u0930\u094d\u091a\u093e \u0915\u0947 \u0932\u093f\u090f 22 \u0928\u0935\u0902\u092c\u0930 \u0915\u094b \u092c\u0948\u0920\u0915 \u0915\u0930\u0947\u0902\u0917\u0947 \u0935\u093f\u092a\u0915\u094d\u0937\u0940 \u0926\u0932 : \u0928\u093e\u092f\u0921\u0942\nNext articleFire Breaks Out At Highrise In Mumbai\u2019s Byculla",

After raising our family and living in Sarasota, Florida for the last 15 years, we decided to move to the mountains for a cooler climate and to live in a more natural environment. We scouted out various locations for our vacation rental business and almost ended up in Costa Rica. However, after spending multiple summers in the Blue Ridge mountains, always staying at various cabins and cottages, we decided that this was the place for us. Weaverville has been a hidden gem for us. We have everything here; a quaint downtown (reminiscent or bygone days), along with the convenience of big box stores. Being so close to Asheville enables us to have the best of both worlds; a country feel that brings us back to nature, yet access to the funky city life with art and amazing restaurants.\nJoe, with a degree in architecture, has been building homes for over 30 years. He designed these vacation cottages to be green built, non-toxic, energy efficient, and set into the natural environment to take advantage of the magnificent views and surroundings.\nSue, previously worked in the Occupational Therapy field is now loving the vacation rental business, most of all because of the fantastic guests that we have from all over.\nThey have two grown children in college and a dog named Callie, who resides on the property.",

The increase would apply to the entire country except for Caye Caulker beginning on April 1.\nAs per usual, those who wish to comment on the initial decision, including BWS and parties representing users of at least 10% of the annual amount of water supplied by the company in 2013-14 have until close of business on February 17 to write in to the PUC.\nIf there are none, then the initial decision becomes final. If objections are received, the PUC is required to appoint an Independent Expert to review the regulated values, rates, tariffs, fees and charges and to make recommendations to the PUC on such.\nThe PUC has planned, tentatively, a press briefing for Monday afternoon at 2 in Belize City.",

        "title": "Price Tower - Price Tower Arts CenterPrice Tower Arts Center",
        "raw_content": "The Price Tower is a spectacular building of copper and concrete and stands in the downtown area of Bartlesville, Oklahoma. The tower was built for Harold C. Price as a corporate headquarters for his pipeline construction company. Mr. Price had originally thought of a rather modest rectangular building a few stories high, however Frank Lloyd Wright convinced him that it would be more economic and efficient to build up rather than out.\nSubsequent floors of the building not required by the Price Company could be rented out and accrue revenue to support the building throughout its lifespan.\nThe unique form of the Price Tower was originally designed by Wright for downtown New York City in 1929, as one of a cluster of apartment towers, but was nonetheless unrealized due to the effects of the Great Depression upon real estate prices and building material costs. Wright was delighted to have the opportunity to build his tower on the plains of Oklahoma, and he nicknamed the building \u201cThe Tree that Escaped the Crowded Forest\u201d because it had escaped the crowded \u201cforests\u201d of Manhattan skyscrapers and was now able \u201cto cast its own shadow upon its own piece of land.\u201d At the time of its construction, from 1953 to 1956, the Price Tower was the tallest building in Bartlesville and on the corner of Dewey Avenue and Sixth Street at the southern edge of the downtown area.\nThe nickname also reflected the structural design of the tower. Frank Lloyd Wright was an \u201corganic\u201d architect and often chose themes and ideas from nature. The \u201ctrunk\u201d of the Price Tower is made of four elevator shafts and their structural walls. The trunk extends deep underground like a \u201ctap root\u201d and provides the strong support for the upper floors, whose tapering cantilevered concrete floor slabs are like \u201cbranches.\u201d The outer walls do not support the building, allowing for large expanses of window glass. The exterior of the Price Tower is clad in copper panels and sun louvers, the \u201cleaves\u201d of the tree, whose color was aided by chemical applications rather than due to the effects of nature upon the material. The building also tapers upward like a tree with thetop three floors progressively becoming narrower and the penthouse floor only a single suite of rooms.\nWright also wished to visually connect the inside of a building with the landscape outside by using similar materials on both the interior and exterior, such as the copper panels, concrete, and aluminum trim. Large windows drew the eye outside toward the view of the Oklahoma prairie, with Wright preferring not to have draperies or artwork on the walls to distract one\u2019s eye from experiencing the beauty.\nFrank Lloyd Wright was interested in the ways in which a society worked and felt that architecture could both transform and improve the landscape while helping create a more functional society. He believed that mankind should build \u201cup\u201d rather than \u201cout\u201d so that in a skyscraper one could both work and live, but also have everything you need in the same building. Rather than having these businesses, stores, and offices along one street, he favored a \u201cvertical street\u201d where they are stacked into a tall building\u2014his definition of a \u201cskyscraper\u201d\u2014 that would release land for parks, gardens, and the general enjoyment of the town\u2019s citizens.\nPrice Tower was designed as four quadrants based on the geometry of a 30-60-90\u00b0 double parallelogram module\u2014one quadrant for double-height apartments and three quadrants for private offices. Initially, there were eight apartments in the building, with Bruce Goff living and working in the Price Tower for nearly nine years. The first and second floors of the Price Tower were designed for retail and housed a women\u2019s dress shop, a beauty salon, and the offices of the Public Service Company of Oklahoma. On the floors above there were a variety of professional offices with the Price Company occupying the top seven floors of the tower including a sixteenth-floor commissary where free lunches were prepared and served to their employees. The seventeenth and eighteenth floors housed the Price Company corporate apartment and the company\u2019s conference room. The nineteenth floor penthouse was the office suite for H.C. Price and his assistant.\nThe Price Tower commission also allowed Wright to design objects within the building. He designed built-in furniture, free standing furniture, fixtures, textiles and decorative artwork. Many of the designs were produced locally to his specifications. The cast aluminum chairs were manufactured by Blue Stem Foundry, Dewey, Oklahoma, with the built-in and freestanding wood furniture built on site.\nThe draperies and upholstery fabrics were designed by Wright as part of his \u201cTaliesin\u201d line of wallpapers and fabrics, and were manufactured by the F. Schumacher Company, New York City, in 1955. The tower\u2019s murals were also designed by Wright, with the corporate apartment\u2019s mural being the only one he inscribed and signed.\nThe floors and ceilings of the building are made of reinforced concrete. Frank Lloyd Wright liked to build with concrete\u2014it could be molded, colored with pigments, and was durable and easy to maintain. The floors of the Price Tower are dyed \u201cCherokee Red,\u201d which was believed to be his favorite color, and used on many of his designs. The powdered pigment was added to the concrete while it was still wetand after pouring, the floors were scored with the geometric double parallelogram module.\nIn February 1956, the Price Tower was opened for the public to tour. Curious onlookers and reporters came from great distances to view the fascinating and unusual looking building in a small town on the Oklahoma plains. Since then, visitors have continued to be intrigued and amazed by its beauty and architectural form, and so the Price Tower is particularly recognized by a variety of honors:\n1960 The Price Tower was listed as one of Wright\u2019s most significant works by the American Institute of Architects.\n1974 The Price Tower was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.\n1983 The Price Tower was honored with the American Institute of Architects\u2019 Twenty-five Year Award for continued use of a building in the purpose for which it had been designed.\n2007 The Price Tower became a National Historic Landmark \u2013 the twentieth designation in Oklahoma to receive this prestigious honor.\nIn 1979, the lobby of the Price Tower was remodeled by Taliesin Associated Architects, Scottsdale, Arizona, as Frank Lloyd Wright\u2019s firm was known following his death. The redecoration included new freestanding furniture, built-in reception desk and banquette sofa, and a beautiful twenty-five-foot long cloisonn\u00e9 (enamel on copper) mural entitled Willows and Reflections designed by John DeKoven Hill (1920-1996) of Taliesin Associated Architects and fabricated by Arizona artist Pauli Lame (b. 1924). The room was completed with the hanging of copper metal draperies to complement the copper on the exterior of the building.\nThe Price Company enjoyed the time they owned and occupied the Price Tower and the Price family continued to operate the company and work in the tower until 1981, when the company relocated to Dallas, Texas. The Phillips Petroleum Company then owned the building for a number of years using it for office space, and off-site storage. In 1987, the Landmarks Preservation Council of Bartlesville began conducting tours of the Price Tower, continuing to do so until 1998. In 1990, the Bartlesville Museum and Sculpture Garden began presenting exhibitions in the tower. Their first exhibition, \u201cThe Tree That Escaped the Crowded Forest, Frank Lloyd Wright and the Price Tower,\u201d was a fitting tribute to the Price Tower\u2019s role in the community.\nIn 1998, The Bartlesville Museum and Sculpture Garden became the Price Tower Arts Center and Phillips Petroleum began to refurbish the tower, making it compliant with current building codes and removing alterations that had been made to the interior spaces. Once completed, Phillips Petroleum then donated the building to the Price Tower Arts Center, who is the current owner of the Price Tower and its city block.\nIn 2003, Inn at Price Tower, a nineteen-room hotel and Copper Bar + Restaurant opened, providing overnight guests the option to fully experience Wright\u2019s design. The Price Tower Arts Center galleries now occupies the two-story space once held by the Public Service Company of Oklahoma and the dress shop and beauty salon. In October 2006, the top three floors of the building were reopened following a three- month restoration to their original 1956, appearance, including replacement of furnishings and replication of original draperies and upholstery fabrics. Tours are conducted daily to these floors or by special appointment.\nThe many ways which the building is used and enjoyed continues to develop and expand. The Price Tower has, indeed, become a beloved landmark of Bartlesville, the State of Oklahoma, and the nation.",

After putting Michael Jordan on the floor for one last swan song, the Wizards have made a resurgence and winning is the only thing on their mind.\nIn the 2004-2005 season, the Wizards brought together three outstanding players in Antawn Jamison, Gilbert Arenas and the now-departed Larry Hughes. Together, these players helped the Wizards to rise above the failures of the past and put the franchise back into the top after a seven-year absence. The new Wizards brand of up-tempo, high flying, team ball was the key to success and the way back into the hearts of the fans, and although Hughes left, his replacement in Caron Butler was no less effective on the floor and exciting to watch. Butler\u2019s positive impact on the team was never more apparent during the five games he was out with an injury, of which the Wizards were not able to win a single contest.\nThe nest season, although marked by ups and downs, was another success as the Wizards finished with a 42-40 record and made back to back appearances in the NBA playoffs where they faced an old teammate in Larry Hughes who had now joined superstar high school phenom, LeBron James. The series was an instant classic as these two evenly match teams went six games, with two of those games requiring overtime sessions. In the end, LeBron lived up to the hype surrounding him to win the series, but the Wizards are taking that playoff experience into this year where they hope to use it in yet another postseason appearance.\nCharlotte Bobcats Tickets\nNew York Knicks Tickets Los Angeles Lakers Tickets\nOrlando Magics Tickets\nNew Jersey Nets Tickets\nOklahoma Thunder Tickets",

        "raw_content": "CUSTOMER SERVICE IN B.C. AND DUTCH MUNICIPALITIES\nThis summer the Process Pros did silent visits in 9 B.C. municipalities; Vancouver, Richmond, Langley, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Surrey, New Westminster, Delta and Burnaby. Our Dutch sister company De Processpecialisten did the same in the Netherlands. In this article, we compare the results to see if the experience of the customer differs between the two countries. We tried to compare different services such as building and business permits, but these services cannot be compared easily due to large differences in the legislation and parties involved. However, we managed to create a case which is applicable to both situations: the street musician wanting to perform in a public space and checking procedures by email, websites, and visits to city hall. It is not the most commonly used service, and therefore is very well suited to check the customer\u2019s experience.\nHow did we evaluate?\nThe four criteria that express the customer\u2019s experience are ease of use, timeliness, first time right, and human interaction.\nIn most cases, we found that information on B.C. websites is difficult to find. When visiting websites, we found that 50% of B.C. municipality procedures for street musicians were either not easy to find or completely absent. Websites were also unclear in redirecting a customer to a contact. In various cases, it was not possible to download information from the website.\nThe forms, either downloaded or given to us when visiting City Hall, contained adequate information in most cases. The formatting of the brochures did not always make the information easy to read. In many cases a copy of brochure was given to us, with maps and street names that could not be read. In one case, the clerk was kind enough to write down the street names on the brochure because she admitted that she was unable to read the information herself.\nIn most municipalities in the Netherlands, no forms were handed out. Instead, we were referred to the cities\u2019 websites. The Dutch websites were clear about regulations and procedures. The digital forms were found mainly on the special digital desk, and could sometimes be filled out straight away. The Dutch forms were better structured, transparent, and more user friendly.\nStrangely, in both B.C. and the Netherlands there was one city where we had great difficulty in finding the entrance to City Hall. In the B.C. municipality we had to enter through what appeared to be a cellar entrance. In the Dutch City Hall, the entrance was closed to the public(!) and we had to ring a bell to get in.\nThis aspects needs major improvement in three areas:\nUnclear rules and regulations\n1. Unclear rules and regulations\nWe found that policies in B.C. differ per municipality, and that in most cities staff was not able to give unambiguous answers. Three cities permit a licensed street musician on city pavement. In one city staff did not know if a license was needed. The senior officer said that it was \u2018probably OK\u2019 and gave us his business card to show to the police in case of any problems.\nWe found the contrary for the Dutch situation. The regulations are clear and there is little difference between the cities. Most of the cities allow street performances without a permit. In only 3 out of 12 cities, a permit is required for a street musician.\nDesk clerks of Dutch municipalities have great difficulty in giving adequate information. At one case we started at the front desk, where the employee advised us to call another employee. The employee that we phoned advised us to send in an email. The answer to our email was that we could find the requested information on the website. But in general, when calling City Hall a clear answer was given straight away.\nWe found that although routing procedures in both the Netherlands and in B.C. limit referrals, they do not realize one stop shopping. In B.C. City Halls there are many desks on various topics, which in itself stimulates the idea of fragmented services instead that of one stop full service. In most cases it took only one referral to visit the right desk.\nWhen visiting City Halls in the Netherlands, it often felt like playing a game show where you had to guess where you would end up. Most cities have an automatic number dispenser to start the routing. However, the case of a street musician was not common enough to be directed instantaneously. So the next step would be to check in at the main reception. The main reception directed us to the next desk. But the desk clerks were only able to answer one of our two questions. From that point we experienced four different options. The first option was to be referred to another desk, which is basically a loop. The second option was to be referred to the City\u2019s website. The third option was to call or come back at another time. The last option was an employee acknowledging that they just don\u2019t know the answer.\nAlmost half of the B.C. cities did not mention the possibility of a street musician performing on private property like a shopping mall or at a Translink station, or at events.\nIn the Netherlands, street musicians were informed completely.\nAlthough service levels in the Netherlands are notoriously low compared to Canadian standards, we found most staff to be very helpful and assisting, although some exceptions were met. In Dutch municipalities staff is focused on routing correctly and following procedures, while B.C. Cities\u2019 staff tends to actually focus on the customer. We were frequently asked which kind of instrument or type of music was played, if we had a CD out, etc. Staff in B.C. in general is more willing to assist in making it possible. In some cases when staff did not know the rules, we were encouraged just to perform because \u201cnobody will notice\u2019.\nIn general, waiting times in both B.C. and Dutch city halls are short for \u2018the first stop\u2019 at the information desk. In almost all cities we were served within four minutes at the information desk. The short waiting time was even realized during a B.C. property tax day. In Dutch city halls the waiting times were slightly longer. However, in most cases we were redirected to a second desk. And then waiting time and redirecting time could run up to twenty minutes.\nAdditionally, B.C. staff did not specify timelines about the application and permit. Dutch staff did give timelines, but they were not very specific. E.g. \u201cAnywhere between x and y weeks.\u201d\nThis small survey indicates that there might be two patterns of service models:\nThe Dutch model which is characterized by actively referring the customer to digital and process-oriented fulfillment\nThe B.C. model which is characterized by human interaction and paper-oriented processing\nIt might be of interest to see what B.C. and Dutch municipalities can learn from each other when progressing towards the digital personalized bureaucracy. The results from our small survey suggest that the back office of Dutch municipalities are more strictly organized, while B.C. municipalities have their front office organized as more customer friendly.",

        "raw_content": "Chandigarh is the capital of both Punjab and Haryana. It is one of the first few planned cities of India. As per the report released by the International Institute of Environment and Development, this city is placed at number four among the fastest growing cities in India.\nChandigarh properties have been witnessing immense growth in spite of restrictions on constructions here. The constructions here had been far from environmental norms. But still the real estate developers are able to expand the property sector here by new ways.\nThe new developers are concentrating in building modern apartments. These residential apartments are constructed with a view of providing facilities like swimming pool, kids play area, gymnasium, community hall, badminton court etc. And of course, most of the apartments in Chandigarh are accessible at economical interest rates and EMI options.\nChandigarh Residential Property\nA lot many real estate developers are coming forward to invest in the property sector in Chandigarh with a view of making residential properties in the city. These residential projects include villas, farm houses, condominiums and townships.\nSome of the forthcoming major housing projects in and around Chandigarh are Nirmal Chhaya Towers: It is a residential apartments project situated at VIP road and is close to Ambala-Chandigarh Highway. It constitutes 771 apartments with 2/3/4/5 bedroom and 70% open green area. Residency, Mohali, located near Chandigarh: It is a group housing project, which provide amenities of modern-lifestyle in its well-integrated flat.\nMany IT companies have come there and have opened their offices to expand their horizons. The list includes Infosys, Tech Mahindra, IBM, Dell, Cognizant etc. Because of foray of IT and ITes majors in Chandigarh, one can see a lot of variation in prices of Chandigarh properties ranging from moderate to very high. For example rentals at sector 19 are at Rs 90/- per sq ft a month. If we move to sector 22, it is quite moderate at Rs 6-7 per sq ft and on the other hand, the value at sector17 and 19 is at Rs10-11,000 per sq ft.\nChandigarh Real Estate Growth\nThe growth of real estate in Chandigarh has been unbelievable. Buying property in and around the city is rising in the present time. Though earlier this activity of buying and selling property in Chandigarh was a fussy job because of some legal formalities but now it has been made easier by the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB).\nChandigarh real estate is mainly ride by investors than the end users. Good connectivity, enough available land and low operational costs are some of the factors that make Chandigarh properties a luring investment segment. There is an advantage of investing in Chandigarh real estate in terms of low investment when compared with metro cities and yet providing equivalent rentals.\nRelated Topics:Buy property in ChandigarhChandigarh PropertyChandigarh Real EstateProperty in ChandigarhReal Estate ChandigarhResidential Properties in ChandigarhSell property in Chandigarh",

The Carters attended an annual General Council meeting in Ann Arbor, Michigan for the World Plumbing Council (WPC). The meeting discussed WPC Bylaws and Strategic Plans. The Carters joined representatives from five different countries at the WPC meeting. Germany, Canada, China, Australia and the United States each had representatives in attendance. The Carters are advocates of improving the lives of others in underdeveloped countries through the education of plumbing practices. The Carters were in Haiti last year where they installed the plumbing for a village orphanage. The WPC was established in 1990 and has representatives and industry organization members from over 27 different countries.

They promote the plumbing industry\u2019s role in safeguarding the environment through proper management, care, reuse, and conservation of natural resources. They are promoting plumbing education worldwide.\nPlumbing is Important:\nGood plumbing can and does make a difference in so many aspects of our day to day lives. While most people in developed countries tend to take the provision of wholesome drinking water and sanitation services for granted, it was not too long ago that general health in these countries improved dramatically when such services were first effectively provided.\nThe picture in developing countries, however, is quite different.\n1. One billion people do not have access to safe water\n2. Six billion People do not have access to acceptable sanitation\n6000 children die every day from water related diseases\nGood plumbing systems could help to improve these tragic statistics dramatically. The entire world is affected by climate change and the increasing pressures on our natural resources through demand for fossil fuels and shortages of potable water. The plumbing industry is at the forefront of action toward increasing energy efficiency and the use of renewable sources of energy. Water efficiency and conservation is also a major challenge in which the plumbing industry has taken a leadership role.\nThe WPC aims to highlight these issues and demonstrate the positive role that the plumbing industry can play in addressing them throughout the world.\nInformation about Carters My Plumber:\nJamie & Lisa Carter own Carters My Plumber.

        "title": "Daylight Harvesting and Solar - Rainbow Grocery",
        "raw_content": "Renewables are our past and future\nIn April of 2001, it was time. Our building needed a new roof. Our roof was leaking out heat in the winter and letting in heat in the summer, which wasted precious resources and drove up our energy costs. After much planning and scores of meetings, we decided that not only would we replace the leaky roof with a new high-tech roof, we were going to embark on three innovative, eco-friendly projects:\nSolar Electric Power ( Photo-Voltaic )\nSince all of these projects involved working on the roof, Jake Hesse, a member of our Maintenance department, suggested to the Board of Directors and the Membership, that we undertake the projects all at once. Though at first glance the price tag seemed a little steep, it would be well worth the cost because we would be be less reliant on non-renewable sources of energy that are harmful to the environment. Fortunately, we were also able to take advantage of rebates and tax credits from the state and federal governments which reduced the cost. Construction started on our fancy new roof in early summer of 2002. There was a little noise and dust, but store operations continued as normal. Now the new roof and the other projects are nearly complete \u2013 and we are excited to show them off!\nWith increasing our energy efficiency as our goal, the members of Rainbow Grocery turned to daylight harvesting. Daylight Harvesting utilizes available daylight to reduce the amount of electrical light used in a room. Using a combination of skylights and an automatic control, electric lights are turned off when there is enough daylight to sufficiently light the store and turned on when the daylight levels are too low. Our daylight harvesting system is made up of many skylights. Each watertight skylight is fitted with a prismatic dome outside of the building and a diffusing lens inside the building which \u201cspreads out\u201d the light. The diffusing lens softens the light and cuts down the heat transference that can affect perishable items in the store.\nIn addition to daylight harvesting, another part of the project is the installation of solar electric ( or photovoltaic ) array. Comprised of tiny cells, the solar electric array absorbs energy from the sun and converts it to electricity without pollution. The cells are laid side by side into larger panels \u2013 there are 72 of these panels on the roof at Rainbow. Although, we cannot rely solely on the photovoltaic panels for electricity, it still provides a cleaner energy source \u2013 and we are not paying PG & E for it!. As solar electric technology progresses, someday we may be able to go \u201coff the grid\u201d\u2026And won\u2019t that be cool.\nWe also use the sun\u2019s energy to heat our water. Large flat boxes with glass covers are installed on the roof with dark colored copper plates and tubes inside. The copper plates absorb the sunlight\u2019s heat causing it to heat the water that flows through the tubes. This solar thermal system provides Rainbow with half of our hot water.",

The estate, however, isn't quite what it seems.\nDespite this film being released 43 years ago it's one I've only very recently just seen, in fact I'd only heard about it in the last few weeks.\nI love it when a film pops out of nowhere and you have absolutely no idea about it or what it's about, it's a rarity that I always take advantage of when it happens and that's exactly what I did here.\nStrangely this film went missing not long after it's release for many years (which explains a lot) it was considered a lost film, that was until 2014 when the negatives were found and luckily restored and released.\nI will state that this film is not to everyone's taste, it's a feature that has focuses mainly on plot, it's broodiness could be even called boring by today's standards.

        "raw_content": "June 14, 2017 By Ready for Rob Leave a Comment\nThis week I\u2019m making the trip to Washington D.C. for the annual convention of the Coalition for Juvenile Justice, as well as their annual Hill Day that coincides with the convention. I\u2019ll be representing the State of Maryland as a representative of Maryland\u2019s Juvenile Grant Planning and Review Council, our State Advisory Group (SAG).\nBoth the Council and the Coalition for Juvenile Justice exist because of the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (the \u201cJJDPA Act\u201d), a law first enacted in 1974 (amended in 2002) to incentivize state governments to follow certain best practices in the care a treatment of youth who enter the justice system.\nThe Coalition works to get the JJDPA Act reauthorized when necessary, and also serves as a hub for new research and thinking on ways to improve juvenile justice policy. Juvenile justice policy serves as a window into criminal justice policy as a whole, in that the key policy aims deal with applying evidence-based approaches, prevention, reducing race and ethnic disparities, creating community-based programs, recognizing the role of mental health, and improving aftercare and reentry. A big priority in juvenile justice policy is keeping the youth justice system separate from adult courts, jails, and prisons.\nI am drawn to this work because I believe that the way we treat our kids in the dawn of their lives determines to a great degree what kind of society we\u2019re going to have. In my view, the juvenile justice system should be flexible enough to be modified and applied to deal with the needs of each individual child. Kids involved in the system ought to have an opportunity to be helped, and not discarded, so they become productive citizens. If we commit to this standard our communities, neighborhoods, and society will benefit. Spending a bunch of money locking kids up does no one any good. By working with this State Advisory Group I am able to contribute to this kind of work and gain a better sense of who is also doing the same while making recommendations to the Governor as to where valuable state resources might be allocated to help facilitate better outcomes for our youth.\nThe SAG is mandated to meet certain requirements including the four core protections, which are:\nDeinstitutionalization of Status Offenders, which requires that juveniles who are not charged with any offense, but who are aliens or alleged to be dependent, neglected or abused, shall not be placed in secure detention/correctional facilities\nSight and Sound Separation, which states that accused and adjudicated delinquents and non-offending juveniles will not be detained or confined in any institution where they may have contact with adult inmates.\nRemoval of Juveniles from Adult Jails and Lockups, which states that juveniles cannot be detained in any adult jail or lockup.\nReduction of Disproportionate Minority Contact, which includes the over-representation of minority youth who come into contact with the juvenile justice system at any point.\nAnnually, the SAG reviews grant applications from organizations who are working to address any/all of these protections throughout the state via programming and we recommend funding for those programs that are most deserving.\nThis week I am hoping to meet with peers from across the country who are also engaged in this work and to gain a better understanding of what some of the best practices are in this area as well as glean what innovations are on the offing that might be applied here in Maryland such that still better outcomes might be realized. In April, I wrote about bail reform, and I shared my view that the bail debate is similar to debates on broader criminal justice policy, where evidence-backed, holistic approaches are at odds with the historical status quo. Juvenile justice is certainly one of those areas. It\u2019s long past time for proven strategies to receive more serious attention and action. This will continue to be one of the focuses of my campaign and my legislative agenda as your Senator.",

        "title": "How to Choose a Car Rental Company? \u2013 Ultimate guide for you",
        "raw_content": "A car hire is undoubtedly the best way to explore a new location. Still, it doesn\u2019t mean that you have to put too much money into it to get the best services. While paying for a luxury car hire will guarantee you comfort, you can work within your means and still get a vehicle that will help you travel hassle free. Even so, there are many companies that deal in car rental, and this factor alone can make it difficult to select the appropriate services. So how can one go about choosing the right rentals? Here are some tips on how to deal with this:\nWhen buying a home appliance or health product, people try to find out as much information as they can before obtaining the items -car rental shouldn\u2019t be an exception. Just like any other set ups, car rentals are businesses and whether new or established, making profit is at the core of their objectives. However, even as you pay for what they provide you with, it\u2019s important that you get value for money. Therefore, as much as you can decide to make a random selection and pick whichever company you come across, it\u2019s always more beneficial when you make effort to research on the company including its customer service.\nLook Beyond the Pricing\nGoing for the cheapest car rental can seem like a brilliant idea at a glance, but even as it may help you save, this may come at the cost of your comfort. Generally, what you pay for a car rental will affect what you get; thus, going for the lowest-priced option may mean foregoing some essentials. Hence, before you pay for a car rental, you should think about what you want included in the package and then try to find an alternative that will provide you with most, if not all the features that you want. Ideally, you should call the company upfront and inquire about the model, services and discounts, and confirm that it has everything you will need to keep you comfortable during your journey.\nConsider the Interior Space\nCar rentals including Autoverhuur Verenigde Staten give descriptions of the vehicle makes and models available in their premises. Therefore, customers always have many alternatives when it comes to car hire. Depending on the number of people you are travelling with, you can go for compact models, or choose an option such as a van if you need more space. If you want a vehicle to take you for short distances, you may not need excess space and in such a case, you can go with a car that will simply help you commute from A to B.\nThere are many other things that you should take into consideration when looking for a car rental. For instance, a company with positive reviews and a good track record will assure you of better services than one with negative testimonials. With research, you can be sure to figure out such issues and therefore only spend where it\u2019s worth.\nJenni is a freelance writer who writes on different topics such as travel, holiday and lifestyle. She holds bachelor\u2019s degree in electronics. Her famous articles includes article on Autoverhuur Verenigde Staten. She loves to travel and make new friends.",

Not so much because it is the best game evar or anything (it is pretty good though), but more because there aren\u2019t any better out there that don\u2019t require massive and continuous commitments for my time.\nOne thing I always wondered though is why more games didn\u2019t learn from the old Jumpgate MOG (I refuse to use the longer acronyms, so MOG is Massive Online Game\u2026 that\u2019s as much hype as you\u2019ll get from me). Like most games, especially MOGs, Jumpgate started a web site long before the game released. But from the start one thing really stood out about their web site. The site was linked very deeply into the actual game (in beta at the time). You could look up who was online, where, what they were doing, see statistics, and even manage your in game character a little.\nWhere the fuck is that feature in every game released since then? Jumpgate is years and years old\u2026 I don\u2019t even know how old. And it had deep integration with their game database back then.\nWhat I\u2019d love to see is WoW implement a way to actually log into the web site and see your character info, spend your talent points, talk to in game players (at least ones in your guild), and most of all\u2026 monitor and participate in the auction house. Man I\u2019d love to be able to watch the AH for those rare items from work without having to actually log into the game itself (which is a sure way for the boss to know you aren\u2019t working :P).\nAnyway\u2026 I do hope future games take some Qs from Jumpgate. Make your web site PART of the game\u2026 not just a bullshit marketing ad.",

        "raw_content": "Life During Dwarf Time\nCelebrating 30 years of Red Dwarf fandom!\nIt's Friday 13th November, 2015. 250 people are packed into a tent in the freezing cold winter air outside Pinewood Studios, around seventeen miles to the west of London. In a short while, they'll sit in rows of temporary seating in one of the world's most storied movie studios, to watch a group of men who are all aged over 50 pretend to be four hapless space adventurers.\nDespite the cold, and despite the waiting, these 250 people can count themselves enormously lucky to be here - because to do so, they've been successful in a ballot which over 14,000 other people have also entered. Their luck means that they're getting to fulfil a dream that for some of them has lasted for nearly three decades.\nIt's a very different story on 27th September, 1987. At the BBC's Oxford Road studios in Manchester, the assembled audience has no idea what they're about to watch. They've largely been gathered from surrounding pubs - office workers at the end of the day, roped in to be the laughing voices in the background of a new show they've never heard of. As the recording of this new sitcom goes on, many of them are reticent, not really understanding what's in front of them. But as it goes on, some of them start to get it - and light chuckles give way to full on laughter.\nThe circumstances may be different, but these two groups of people, twenty-eight years apart, have something in common. The ones in 1987 Manchester might not realise it yet, but they're starting a trend that will link them with the ones in 2015 Pinewood - not to mention every one of you reading this article in 2018.\nThey're all Red Dwarf fans.\n\"We've never been a trendy show,\" Craig Charles said in 2002's Launching Red Dwarf documentary. \"We've never been accepted by comedy officialdom. We've always been these scallies, tied on at the end, never broken into the mainstream of the comedy mafia, as it were. Which is fine by us!\"\nThis sense of looking in from the outside has been with Red Dwarf from the start - right from the days when a script that had been kicked from pillar to post around the BBC for several years (and about which even the producer who was its biggest champion, Paul Jackson, had said \"Don't [write it], guys. Don't write a sci-fi sitcom\") was produced at the unfashionable BBC Manchester, filling a slot left behind by another show's budget, and nearly not getting made at all because of an electricians' strike.\nYet despite this perception, Red Dwarf is one of the most beloved comedy series ever produced. It still holds the record as BBC2's highest-ever rated sitcom - pulling in over 8 million viewers in 1999 - and the 2009 Back to Earth special remains the most viewed programme ever on current channel Dave. It has a global reach, having cracked the difficult US market long before the current wave of British shows - and at a time before dedicated channels for that kind of thing were readily available, it did so on the humble PBS.\nBut Red Dwarf isn't the kind of show that just has viewers. Red Dwarf has fans. At a time when the only kind of programme that attracted fan conventions, magazines and the like were serious sci-fi dramas like Star Trek and Doctor Who, Red Dwarf broke the mould by being a sitcom with a cosplaying, fan-fiction-writing, obsessive-nitpick-detailing fanbase to match any of them. And that fanbase has stuck with the show - even through a ten-year period without any new episodes - growing with new generations and remaining as fervent as ever.\nSo how did that happen? What is the unique power of Red Dwarf? And what does it mean to its millions of fans worldwide - some of whom have even gone so far as to work on, or even appear in, the show years afterwards?",

That, and nobody knew about them.\nSince the break-up, Grant released two albums \u2014 1999\u2019s Sadstyle and 2004\u2019s Puking And Crying. In honor of the 10-year anniversary of Sadstyle, it was remixed and remastered, with a handful of unreleased tracks and demo versions of songs, in a cleaner quality than the original recordings. Other than that, the only real difference is in the new additions.\nTrack seven, \u201cSo You Wanna Be A Rockstar,\u201d is one of the unreleased songs, mixing painful lyrics with gloomy, driving guitarwork, layered to sound much bigger than one woman and one set of hands \u2014 a common attribute to Grant\u2019s work. \u201cSure, I\u2019d Love One\u201d is lower, with guitar at the higher end of the spectrum. Lastly, there\u2019s a demo version of \u201c5 Dollars,\u201d which appears much more polished on Puking And Crying, so aside from seeing how it started, it\u2019s not that great to listen to.\nThe album as a whole \u2014 and really, all of Grant\u2019s solo work \u2014 feels dark and desperate, in a more broken down way than Carissa\u2019s Wierd did. Grant\u2019s voice is more in the forefront, putting more emphasis on the interplay between guitar and voice. If you already have the original Sadstyle, there\u2019s not a ton you\u2019d be missing if you passed this one up. Nonetheless, it\u2019s a great intro to S if you missed the boat the first time around and is most definitely a solid listen.\nRachel Helm is a former REDEFINE magazine Staff Writer.",

        "raw_content": "SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA GET IT WRONG FIRST\nAs a popular show (that, in fact, had been done badly first and then superbly much later on) put it \"all of this has happened before and all of this will happen again.\" (and I'm sorry if you liked the original, but it was largely possessed of teh suck).\nSome of my best spec scripts, at least in my subjective opinion, are the direct result of some total crap. My House spec, which has served me well so far, is essentially a rewrite of a House that I basically forced myself though about a year prior. I got to the last page of it, read though it and decided it was total crap. After having written a thing or two...or five...else, I decided I still wanted a House spec in the rotation, and I did a lot of research for that first one, so I started with that crap script and rebroke it from top to bottom. A page-one rewrite. The logline is the same, but little else. The time away let me come back fresh.\nMy current Dexter spec only found focus after completing a considerably less focused draft and letting my writer's group have at it.\nNow, I think it's time to pull some Daisies. I got though a Pushing Daisies draft a few months ago. Even before I was done, I wasn't wild about it. I felt that I was nailing the voices, but the plot felt strained and contrived. The B-plot sucked harder than Cygus X-1. At one point I even gave it to a friend to read and then asked her not to read it. I hope she didn't.\nSince then, I've gone though a pilot, aborted on a one-act, but started another and wrote a short radio play. And actually, that Dexter was pulled together after the vomit draft of the Pushing Daisies. And that's really what it was, a vomit draft. Point is, last night I decided that enought time had passed, and started thinking about that Pushing Daisies. My first problem was that the story didn't get going quickly enough. I couldn't quite crack it before, but it totally came to me in minutes this time. I've flushed the B-plot and have some new contenders with a stronger focus on the theme...and I'm reconsidering who dunnit in the whodunnit portion of things.\nI feel there will be a strong spec after I tear this down and put it back together again.\nSo, I say to you...if you feel your script isn't quite working, or you're not happy with your outline but can't seem to crack it...write it anyway. You might find your way while you're in the middle of executing that script, but if you don't you need to vomit that shite out of your system.\nThen, and pardon the imagery, file that bile away. Come back to it later. A couple of weeks, maybe a couple of months. It'll look different than you remembered it, and you'll spot the problems easier. And you might find the solutions with a less tainted eye.",

        "raw_content": "By Katie Watson Post date: Feb 04, 2016\nThe purpose of this case study is to look at the effectiveness of the project Zambia: Putting Health News in the Headlines in enhancing journalism by focusing more extensively on health coverage. This project came to fruition through the combined efforts of the Gates Foundation, the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) and Antigone Barton. Barton lived in Zambia and worked with Zambia Daily Mail for one year, during which time she developed several goals in coordination with journalists living and working in Zambia. These goals included the following:\nDevelop a sustainable health desk at the Zambia Daily Mail;\nCreate and share a health reporting newsletter;\nProduce multiple in-depth health reporting projects;\nDevelop a successor for Barton, so that when she left her work would continue.\nIn the first six months of the project alone, Barton was able to create dramatic changes in health reporting at the Zambia Daily Mail. She encouraged journalists to do in-depth reporting on major issues, a change from prior articles, which had merely restated press releases. Barton\u2019s efforts resulted in the creation of a health-reporting newsletter, multiple health reporting projects, the introduction of infographics in Zambian health stories, and a series of successful health workshops. Her work has played a direct role in lowering the prevalence of malaria in Zambia and has been recognized by Zambian government officials. Barton\u2019s project was so effective that her successor, Zarina Geloo, has been able to sustain the work, and expand upon it, from 2010 through today.\n\u201cWhen I left the Daily Mail...a health desk existed and they continued to do health projects,\u201d Barton said. \u201cI had picked a successor and it was a Zambian...it was extremely rewarding.\u201d[1]\nIn order to duplicate these results globally one must select qualified and committed journalists who are able to readily adapt methods and projects to the needs of both local actors and partner organizations. Future projects should strive to create:\nA dictionary of terms to be widely circulated so there is clarity of use\nA journalistic network with which to share ideas and resources\nA dedicated health desk so that there is clarity and consistency in reporting.\nFor all the project\u2019s successes, there were several challenges that can be learned from and built upon. This report will examine the strengths and weaknesses of the project, Zambia: Putting Health News in the Headlines, and provide recommendation for future projects both in Zambia and internationally.\nZambia: Putting Health News in the Headlines was funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which \u201caims to harness advances in science and technology to save lives in developing countries.\u201d[2] The Gates Foundation awarded over $1.7 million to the International Center for Journalists for use with the Knight Health Journalism Fellowships with projects taking place in Zambia, Uganda, Kenya and South Africa.[3]\nProject lead Antigone Barton said, \u201c[The Gates Foundation] funds a huge number of things having to do with health, and they were putting a great deal of emphasis on journalism at the time because they were noticing these [health] stories weren\u2019t getting told...The pressure, or the awareness that needed to be brought to policy makers wasn\u2019t happening, so they funded [the projects in Sub-Saharan Africa] for three years.\u201d[4]\nThe Knight Health Journalism Fellowships develop media projects in Sub-Saharan Africa that focus on coverage of key health issues, and set the stage for policy improvement. Fellows help journalists in country to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to support ongoing coverage of major health issues that affect the region, and the continent. As a result, journalists in the area have begun to cover disease prevention, healthy living, new developments in health care and government corruption and inefficiency.\nAll reporting, whether on business, sports, or breaking news must include an element of health coverage. \u201cWhether it is about living in a healthy environment, eating nourishing food, staying strong enough to achieve our goals or avoiding the communicable deadly illnesses that make this world a smaller place each day, writing about health means writing about the quality and duration of our lives,\u201d Barton wrote.[5]\nBarton worked with journalists at the Zambia Daily Mail to create a list of goals they hoped to accomplish over the course of the project. These goals included:\n\u201cWork with reporters and editors to develop and raise the profile of daily health reporting with the use of at least one additional source, follow-up stories and regular appearances on the front page;\n\u201cWork with newspaper staff to create an in-house health-reporting style manual, that would include definitions, standards for statistic use, criteria for citing research, and other matters to be agreed on by participating staff members\n\u201cCreate a health-reporting newsletter that could be used to draw together a network of health journalists and could be continued after the end of [the] fellowship;\n\u201cWork with reporters and editors to produce at least four in-depth health reporting projects;\n\u201cIntroduce the use of charts, graphs, [and] information boxes to highlight important statistics accompanying health stories;\n\u201cDesign a series of workshop or group training opportunities around health writing issues--including research, statistic use, translating technical or bureaucratic terminology for mass audiences.\u201d\nDevelop a successor for Barton so that when she left her work would continue;\nDevelop a sustainable health desk at the Zambia Daily Mail.\nWhile not all of these goals were met during the one-year fellowship, the overall effect of Barton\u2019s work was overwhelmingly positive and led to six additional years of funding for another woman, Zarina Geloo.\nZambian journalists are expected to train in an incredibly broad scope of fields, including broadcast, print, radio, and television, as opposed to honing in on one area of focus. As a result they are often uncomfortable writing in depth about any one particular topic, making it difficult to establish a health specific beat. Other fundamental issues stemmed from the structural maladies that Zambian journalists deal with on a daily basis.\nBarton said, \u201c[Journalists] went to appointments in a pool vehicle where everybody crammed in as many people as they could, and you got there give or take an hour of when you were supposed to be there. The internet literally worked about as often as it didn\u2019t work. The computers were ancient and they were infested with viruses. They weren\u2019t very well compensated for any expenses they had to incur on their own. It was very hard to make a case for being paid back for things... and in a low income country those things really add up. Their salaries were not great so they were very reluctant to lay out those expenses... So for any of those reasons the challenges for doing your job with a great deal of vigor were limited.\u201d[6]\nThe technological issues led to further problems that the project sought to address. Namely, donors such as USAID will often write statements on health issues in Zambia and distribute them to local journalists. As electricity usage, computer accessibility, and internet connectivity could be sporadic, journalists were often left with no option but to copy the statements word for word and present them to the public as fact. This frequently led to mass uniformity of information across the country, and no investigative reporting.\nWhen Barton arrived in Zambia, health news was largely overlooked, and not one of the major publications or broadcast outlets had a dedicated health desk.\nBarton said, \u201cNobody was developing expertise in health; they were catching stories as they could...nobody was getting the opportunity to inform their reporting as much as it needed to happen.\u201d[7]\nThis led to collective frustration among the Zambian population. They felt that even if a major health initiative were to take place, the media would not care unless the President himself was there.\n\u201cWhen members of Parliament formed a coalition to draw attention to the pandemic, the news didn't make the news, the group's new chairman complained, \u2018not even a meanwhile,\u2019\u201d Barton wrote. \u201cWhen seventeen parliamentarians were tested for the virus at a local shopping center recently, not a single reporter showed up\u2026A representative from Journalists Against AIDS issued a \u2018collective apology.\u2019\u201d[8]\nBarton tackled these problems and more by coordinating all her actions with journalists at the Zambia Daily Mail to ensure that goals were achieved in a collaborative and long-lasting manner.\nMethodology of the Project\nThe primary goal of Zambia: Putting Health News in the Headlines was to develop a health beat at the Zambian Daily Mail. In order to do this Barton worked in-country with journalists to come up with projects that would focus on \u201cone health issue and assign a variety of stories and use data and do all the things that make a project fun here...to make health information easier to access.\u201d[9] As these initiatives were carried out, Barton monitored and evaluated the project and accounted for her results to the ICFJ.\n\u201cWe had specific benchmarks which included each of the projects and getting the health desk started by the end,\u201d Barton said. \u201cThere were deliverables, but how to accomplish them was very much up to me once I was [in Zambia].\u201d[10]\nAdditionally, Barton worked closely with journalists in-country to utilize local resources, and target key areas of need. Using local support made her efforts more successful than they would have been if she worked only with Westerners, as the cultural and structural differences were vast. Together, Barton and the local journalists compiled mailing lists of over 100 health communicators and coordinated with them to plan and execute successful workshops on health reporting. They also created a list of terms to be used in health reporting, and the proper way to use them, and sent the terms to the mailing list so that there would be uniformity in use.\nChallenges to the Project\nFor all the project\u2019s successes there were several issues along the way, some of which were resolved and some of which persisted long after Barton had returned home. The structural and cultural issues that frustrated Barton during her time in Zambia will be some of the hardest to overcome in the future.\nOne of the biggest challenges to accurate,watchdog reporting was the cost. Journalists and staff members expected to be paid for any activity, even those that contributed to the development of their own capacities or resources. The impact of this kind of thinking has been hugely detrimental to journalistic ethics and integrity, as most journalists readily accept opportunities to make additional money, including the acceptance of bribes in exchange for slanting a story a particular way.\nThe desire for additional compensation for every activity was a major problem when the idea of the style guide was introduced. Initially, there was widespread support for the idea and a desire among journalists to participate. However, when it became clear that participants would not be given additional, monetary incentives there was a massive decline in desire to be a part of the project.[11]\nCompensation and incentives also presented problems when designing workshops and group training opportunities around health writing. The expectations surrounding workshops in Zambia are self-defeating, as participants bide their time waiting for their per diem expense pay, tea breaks, and \u201cglowing evaluations, to ensure more such events keep occurring.\u201d[12] The events end with little actual benefit to participants, and no real accountability for workshop sponsors. In the end, Barton spent her time trying to persuade newspaper management to curtail reporters\u2019 access to these frequent events, instead of preparing one herself.\nZambia\u2019s infrastructure is not as friendly to daily news cycles as is the United States. Fuel is a necessity, and yet it is not always readily available, or affordable. The power frequently cuts off for hours at a time, limiting journalists\u2019 access to their computers, phones, printers and scanners. Traffic can be brutal, causing journalists to be late for events, or miss them all together. In Zambia, minute long tasks can turn into hours long problem solving experiments as journalists fight to get stories told.\n\u201cThat happened when the writer of that day\u2019s commentary ended up stranded by the fuel shortage and without Internet access in the Copperbelt. Another writer took up the assignment,\u201d Barton wrote. \u201cIn the meantime, sending copy to the Deputy Managing Editor was hindered by the power failure. The DME picked up the phone to get tech support to look at the situation, but his phone was out too. I headed home to send the copy from there, where I hoped my Internet would be working, a normally five-minute journey that took 45 minutes that day in the gas-station-line blocked traffic. And another 45 minutes back.\u201d[13]\nBarton also encountered problems when trying to work with other organizations within Zambia. While she was there it came out that a clinical trial had failed to divulge to Zambian journalists the results of its study, which had included Zambian participants. This resulted in an onslaught of misreporting and backlash, highlighting the problems health reporting faces in the country.\nOther challenges stemmed from a lack of coordination between officials in the United States and those in Zambia. Barton knew that World AIDS Day would be an opportune time to write about the problems that Zambia is facing in the AIDS Epidemic, yet she had an incredibly hard time finding any American aid workers who could speak to her journalists, as AIDS Day fell on Thanksgiving that year.\n\u201cThanksgiving -- and the days before, and the days after, it turns out -- are days off for the American USAID staffers here whose permission is required before anyone from any organization receiving USAID money can speak to the press. That effectively made seeking comments or information -- on many if not most HIV treatment or prevention initiatives here -- a dead end,\u201d Barton wrote. \u201cIt surprised all of us that USAID didn't stay staffed in the days leading up to World AIDS Day, in spite of the fact that HIV/AIDS-fighting efforts is a major focus of the agency's work.\u201d[14]\nAlthough the project met many initial roadblocks, including a lack of training, education and failures of technology, the project was deemed an overall success.\n\u201cThings came together to the extent that they did because [the project] was really valued,\u201d Barton said. \u201c[The journalists] participated, and joined, and added their input and started working with each other more. So the support was critical, but also letting them set the tone, and the pace and the priorities was critical.\u201d[15]\nBy the end of Barton\u2019s year in Zambia she had appointed a successor, Zarina Geloo, who is still in Zambia continuing Barton\u2019s work. She also created a health-reporting newsletter with a mailing list of over 100 health communicators. Referrals from the original mailing list have lead to a steady growth in participation, creating a forum for discussion and a greater dissemination of information.\nOf all of the changes that Barton sought to implement the introduction of charts, graphs and information boxes were the most eagerly embraced. These infographics have highlighted important statistics accompanying health stories, and lead to a clearer presentation of information for readers.\nBarton also completed the goal of producing four in-depth health reporting projects on malaria, AIDS, cancer and circumcision. This plan was the best received by the staff from the beginning and resulted in the most productive and informative work.\n\u201cManagement had thrown itself behind the series of malaria stories, assigning daily commentaries to run with them and staff photos to run with the bylines,\u201d Barton wrote. \u201cThe fact that the malaria series did make it out on time here in the midst of obstacles that slowed the already challenged pace of work here said something about priorities. As anywhere they ultimately revolve around survival, resilience, and solutions...Those priorities boded well for the promise of health journalism here.\u201d[16]\nBarton\u2019s work was so successful that the Zambia Daily Mail was recognized by the Minister of Health of Zambia, who awarded the paper a prize for its malaria series and gave them a plaque on national television.[17]\nThe overall effects of Zambia: Putting Health News in the Headlineswere hugely beneficial to Zambians, and its efforts should be repeated in other areas.This project contributed to successful vaccination campaigns against measles, pneumonia and polio, and is credited with helping to lower the incidence of malaria and other diseases.[18]It has prodded governments to improve policies addressing health challenges ranging from AIDS to prenatal care to tuberculosis.[19]When project leaders spend time with and take valuable advice from journalists in country they can learn a great deal, and tailor projects to the needs of the area. By listening to individuals in Zambia, Barton was able to redirect her focus away from unproductive events, such as workshops, and towards the more useful creation of a permanent health desk. Furthermore, in choosing a successor who is from Zambia and thus integrated in the local culture, this project has had much higher rates of continued success.\nThere are several things that can be done to ensure the success of future projects:\n- Additional projects should imitate Barton\u2019s work by creating mailing lists of journalists and health officials so that information is able to freely flow between all. Health officials are often hard to reach, but they are indispensible to health news coverage. Giving journalists the opportunity to create relationships and professional networks with these officials will make it easier to get information about health initiatives, prevention and treatment. The mailing lists will also ensure that when there are breaking news updates both journalists and health officials can alert each other and share resources to create better, more informative coverage of health news.\n- It is essential that project heads host regular meetings with staff and other community leaders to discuss what will bring the greatest benefit to the community. Having spent considerably more time in the community, staff will understand the culture and needs of the individuals that these projects seek to help, and how project goals can be met most efficiently. Community leaders are highly respected, and their opinions on a matter of health often matter much more than facts or statistics on the matter. They should be consulted first and educated about the benefits of health prevention and treatment and then persuaded to tell their communities what they have learned. Until this is done, individuals in the area will continue to doubt the information they read in health news.\n- In order for work to be continuous, individuals from the country should be given leadership roles, and encouraged to take an active role in activities. Individuals who have grown up in affected areas know intimately the problems that their communities face and the resistance to change that may be felt due to culturaldifferences. Providing natives with leadership roles will bring valuable insight to the project, and ensure greater success rates.\n- Style and term guides should be created so that reporting is uniform throughout the field. This consistency will ensure that health journalists understand the importance of using the correct terms for all health situations, and of presenting health news in a straightforward manner. Furthermore, the project\u2019s reach will be extended far beyond its original intent as the guides are distributed across a wide range of publications.\n[1] \"Antigone Barton.\" Telephone interview. 06 Nov. 2015.\n[2]\"What We Do.\" Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

        "raw_content": "I met Rina in autumn. She came onto our service because her breast cancer, treated twenty years previously, had come back in metastatic form despite a double mastectomy. She was grateful for those twenty good years, and now she accepted her terminal prognosis. She lived with her younger son, a quiet, learned man, in a tiny studio apartment where he slept on a pallet next to her hospital bed. Her oldest son had embezzled her pension and life savings, but she never spoke ill of him. Rina was a Jewish lady from New Jersey. She would say in her east coast accent, \u201cEv\u2019rybody\u2019s gotta die. Whaddaya gonna do?\u201d\nThis working class girl had moved out to the West coast when her older sister needed help with a new baby after the Second World War had been won in Europe, but not in the Pacific. She was an \u201cold maid\u201d at twenty-three, and figured that being a California nanny would be an adventure. She came across the country by train, and was impressed. \u201cWho knew this country was so big?\u201d The train was full of young men in uniform. Judging by an old photo taken just before the trip, it is no wonder with her strong cheekbones, hourglass figure, and engaging smile that Rina did not lack for companions in the dining car. \u201cI never paid for one meal!\u201d she winked.\nRina had listened to the Metropolitan Opera\u2019s radio broadcasts since she was a little girl. \u201cThe first time I heard opera, it just captivated me,\u201d she told me one afternoon. My practiced chaplain\u2019s expression of concerned interest must have failed me for a moment, because the next thing she said was, \u201cOpera\u201d\u2014a two-syllable word for Rina\u2014\u201cYa either love it or ya don\u2019t.\u201d\nI played her opera from YouTube through my bluetooth speaker, and invited her to watch the video of Maria Callas singing the Violetta Aria from La Traviata on my iPad. When the last note had died away, we sat in silence for a while, recovering, before Rina said rapturously, clasping her hands over her bony breast, \u201cMaria Callas. Such a voice! It\u2019s a gift from God, that voice!\u201d\nI asked, \u201cAnd what about you, Rina? What has been your gift from God?\u201d\n\u201cOh, I could make a soup,\u201d she said, looking at me impishly. \u201cI could make such a soup, that the smell of it would fill the house, and a child that came into that house and smelled that soup would know that they were loved.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s a mighty good gift,\u201d I said.\n\u201cYes, it is,\u201d she agreed, remembering.\nTwo months later I was visiting again. Rina had been getting more cachectic, more tired, and was having more pain in her back as the cancer progressed. When I came in, her son Saul would take the opportunity to dash to the grocery store on his bicycle to replenish their meager larder. This particular day, Rina was barely responsive, eyes closed, breathing labored. I sat beside her hospital bed in a silent meditation for healing.\nYou may be surprised that I use that word healing in association with a terminally ill patient, but it is related to the words \u201chealth,\u201d \u201chale,\u201d and ultimately, \u201cwhole.\u201d I was meditating on Rina\u2019s wholeness as a person, and on her being a part of the cosmic whole.\nSuddenly, she put her hand up, and I took it in both of mine. \u201cWhat do you need, dear?\u201d I asked. \u201cI\u2019m here. Chaplain Carl is here.\u201d\n\u201cLemme see your face,\u201d Rina rasped.\nI stood up and leaned over the bed, thinking that she was confused about who I might be. She took my face in both her hands and looked into my eyes for a long moment. I\u2019d somehow not realized that her eyes were an emerald green color, not a murky hazel like mine, but a true green.\nShe shook my face gently side to side. \u201cYou\u2019re so beautiful,\u201d she said.\n\u201cYou are so very beautiful, Rina.\u201d\nThe moment held us in its glow, and time stopped the way it does, you know, when you\u2019ve entered into numinous time, sacred time. The afternoon sun slanted through the window, and I could hear schoolchildren calling to one another as they walked home. Rina and I just stayed there, transfixed by the precious beauty of existence.\nShe died four days later. She never complained, she was never afraid that I know of, she was never concerned with her dignity, which is the most dignified way to be. She was grateful for everything, and she often laughed until she wheezed.\n\u201cEv\u2019rybody\u2019s gotta die. Whaddaya gonna do?\u201d\nBy Carl Magruder|2017-05-09T10:34:11+00:00June 22nd, 2016|Chaplain's Blog, ResolutionCare Blog, ResolutionCare Stories|8 Comments\nJulie Lerwill June 23, 2016 at 8:20 am\t- Reply\nBeautiful, Carl.

With this training, Bisiach created one of the most important Italian violin firms of the late 1800s and early 1900s. All three Antoniazzis would work in Bisiach\u2019s workshop at different times, and it was in this shop that a number of other very well-known luthiers of 1900s Italy learned the trade (Sgarabotto, Pedrazzini, Garimberti, and Ornati being the most famous). The workshop produced new-looking instruments and also antiqued examples based on the work of old masters. These copies were well-informed, as Leandro Bisiach was the leading Italian dealer in antique instruments of his day. Internationally recognized, he did business with the Hill firm of England and the Wurlitzer shop in the United States.\nWe are offering one of the finest examples of Leandro Bisiach\u2019s personal making that has ever come through our shop. In nearly mint condition, this violin dates from c.1895 and features a compelling, rich sound.",

        "raw_content": "Romania to Sell 15% of Romgaz, Biggest Gas Producer, This Year\nRomania plans to sell 15 percent of Romgaz SA, its largest natural-gas producer, in an initial public offering this year as part of the eastern European country\u2019s agreement with the International Monetary Fund.\nRomgaz shares will trade on the Bucharest Stock Exchange as well as in London as global depositary receipts, Romgaz and the government said in a joint statement today. Romania will keep at least 70 percent of Romgaz and property-restitution fund Fondul Proprietatea SA will have a 15 percent stake in the company. The total value of the offering may reach as much as 600 million euros ($814 million), Gabriel Dumitrascu, head of the Energy Department\u2019s asset-sale program, said on Sept. 19.\n\u201cThe listing of Romgaz is part of the ambitious program initiated by the Romanian government to introduce private investors into strategic companies in the context of reforming the energy sector,\u201d Energy Minister Constantin Nita said in the statement.\nRomania\u2019s government must complete the sale by the end of November to meet the terms of its newly-signed 2 billion-euro accord with the IMF to overhaul state companies. The nation sold to the public a minority stake in nuclear power generator Nuclearelectrica SA last month as part of the deal.\nThe country also sold a 15 percent stake in natural-gas grid operator Transgaz SA in April and an additional 15 percent stake in utility Transelectrica SA in March last year.\nPrime Minister Victor Ponta\u2019s government may approve next week a price range in Romgaz\u2019s sale, which should start no later than Oct. 28 and end by Nov. 9, Bursa newspaper reported today, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter.\nThe offering could start as soon as the end of this month, Dumitrascu said in an interview on Oct. 9.\nRomgaz\u2019s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization fell to 1.1 billion lei in the first half of 2013 from 1.2 billion lei a year earlier, it said in the statement. Sales declined to 3.8 billion lei in 2012 from 4.2 billion lei in 2011.",

The SBI Group recognizes its sociality as an element that constitutes society and undertakes business operations entirely from a customer perspective, based on its fundamental \u201cCustomer-centric Principle,\u201d with a view to contributing to the maintenance and development of society through businesses while responding to requests from a wide range of stakeholders. The Group considers that gaining social trust is essential in each process of the businesses it conducts. Accordingly, with also a view to establishing an appropriate corporate governance structure that contributes to the improvement of corporate value, it strives to maintain an organizational structure that responds rapidly to any change in the transparency/fairness of decision-making processes and business environments.\nI.

Basic Policy on the Governance System\nAttachment 1Basic Policy for Constructive Dialogue with Shareholders\nAttachment 2 SBI Holdings\u2019 Independence Criteria for Outside Directors\n1. Management Philosophy and Corporate Vision\nThe SBI Group makes a clear distinction between its Management Philosophy and its Corporate Vision. The Group considers a management philosophy to embody a company\u2019s long-term, universal values and raison d\u2019etre, which are not prone to change because of changes in top management or the business environment. The Group considers a corporate vision to be a concrete, realistic and obtainable description of how a company sees itself in the future. In this age of incessant change, a corporate vision is medium-term in nature.\n(1) SBI Group\u2019s Management Philosophies\nSound Ethical Values\nWe shall undertake judgements on actions based not only on whether they conform to the law or profit the Company, but also whether they are socially equitable.\nFinancial Innovator\nWe will transcend traditional methods and bring financial innovations to the forefront of the financial industry, utilizing opportunities provided by the powerful price-cutting forces of the Internet and providing financial services that further enhance benefits for customers.\nNew Industry Creator\nWe will work to become the leader in creating and cultivating the core industries of the 21st century.\nContinual Self-Evolution\nWe will continue to be a company that evolves of its own volition by forming an organization that flexibly adapts to changes in the operating environment and incorporates corporate \u201cIngenuity\u201d and \u201cSelf-transformation\u201d as part of its organizational DNA.\nFulfill Social Responsibility\nWe will ensure that each company in the SBI Group recognizes its social responsibilities as a member of society while fulfilling the demands of its stakeholders, contributing to the betterment of society.\n(2) The SBI Group\u2019s Corporate Vision\nFor detail, please refer to the following website.\nhttp://www.sbigroup.co.jp/english/company/information/vision.html\n2. The SBI Group\u2019s Definition of Corporate Value\nThe SBI Group defines corporate value as an aggregation of customer value, shareholder value and human capital value.\nThe creation of customer value, which is the intrinsic value of goods and services a company provides to its customers, is the foundation of corporate value. Customer value, shareholder value and human capital value are mutually interconnected, and increase over time in a virtuous cycle.\nIncrease in customer value, by closely adhering to the \u201cCustomer-centric Principle\u201d on a Group-wide basis, will contribute toward an improvement in business performance, which results to an increase in shareholder value. And as an outcome, it makes it possible to further recruit and retain superior personnel, which leads to an increase in human capital value. If it is able to recruit and retain superior personnel, better products and services can be created and will lead to an additional increase in customer value. By creating this type of virtuous cycle, the SBI Group is endeavoring to increase corporate value.\n(1) The SBI Group\u2019s Code of Conduct\nIn accordance with the Management Philosophy, SBI Holdings (\u201cthe Company\u201d) has established the SBI Group Compliance Code of Conduct as a code of conduct pertaining to relations with stakeholders. All SBI Group officers and employees observe the Code of Conduct and endeavor to ensure that it is widely put into practice.\n(2) Disclosure of Company Information\nThe Company\u2019s basic policy on information disclosure is to fulfill its responsibilities as a listed company to all stakeholders through appropriate, prompt disclosure of important matters about the Company and to increase corporate value by ensuring management transparency and fairness.\n2. Relationships with Customers\nThe SBI Group consistently adheres to the \u201cCustomer-centric Principle\u201d in all Group businesses to maximize customer value, which is the intrinsic value of the goods and services a company provides to customers and the foundation of corporate value. The officers and employees of the SBI Group demonstrate leadership and endeavor to increase customer satisfaction, along with create and enhance customer value through the provision of customer services grounded in this basic principle.\n3. Relationships with Shareholders\n(1) Shareholder Rights\nThe Company observes the following matters to enable all shareholders to secure and appropriately exercise shareholder rights.\n(i) The Company discloses information concerning the General Meeting of Shareholders in a timely and appropriate manner.\n(ii) In principle, the Company sends out the convocation notice approximately three weeks before the General Meeting of Shareholders and publishes the notice on the Company\u2019s website to allow sufficient time for consideration of proposals.\n(iii) The Company arranges an environment in which shareholders are able to exercise voting rights via the website. In addition, it discloses the English translation of agenda items in the convocation notice, as well as the convocation notice written in English via its English website.\n(iv) The Board of Directors analyzes proposals against which a substantial number of negative votes have been cast at the General Meeting of Shareholders.\n(2) Basic Policy for Constructive Dialogue with Shareholders\nThe Company has established a basic policy for the purpose of actively engaging in dialogues to establish good relationships with investors, including shareholders, through investor relations activities \uff08see Attachment 1\uff09.\n(3) Capital Policy\n(i) The Company\u2019s basic dividend policy is to pay a minimum annual dividend of JPY 10 per share, and endeavors to increase the dividend when it has determined that a further return of profits is possible, after a comprehensive consideration of the appropriate level of internal reserves required for sustained growth, along with a consideration of the ongoing business performance. Furthermore, the Company strives to achieve a total shareholder return ratio, which is the portion of the sum of dividend payouts and share repurchase amounts to profit for the year attributable to the owners of the Company, of 40% as a minimum.\n(ii) When implementing a capital policy that results in dilution of shares, to avoid causing unfair harm to existing shareholder value, the Company comprehensively considers the rationality of the policy and provides sufficient explanation to shareholders at the time of implementation.\n(4) Strategic Shareholding\n(i) Strategic shareholding policy\nWhen engaging in business alliances or cooperation that contribute to the SBI Group\u2019s business development and enhancement of the Company\u2019s corporate value, the Company may acquire and hold shares of business partners with a view to earning profits through their future sale if it is rational to do so for reasons such as prospective enhancement of the corporate value of business partners. The Board of Directors individually examines the objective and rationale for those listed shares that are held from a strategic reason, on an annual basis. Specifically, the Board of Directors conducts assessments from qualitative perspectives, such as whether or not the holding of shares contributes to the maintenance and strengthening of the relationship with the relevant parties, and quantitative perspectives, such as whether or not dividends or earnings from transactions related to the relevant parties are in line with the Company\u2019s capital cost. If it decides that there is no rationale in such holding after a comprehensive examination, the Company, in principle, starts to sell such shares that are held.\nIn a certain case where the Company\u2019s shares are held by a strategic shareholder, it will not engage in economically unreasonable transactions that are detrimental to the joint corporate and shareholder interests with the relevant company. If the relevant shareholder of strategic holdings indicates an intention to sell such holdings, the Company takes appropriate measures, instead of preventing the sale of such holdings by indicating the possibility of reducing transactions and other means.\n(ii) Policy on exercise of voting rights\nThe Company exercises voting rights after confirming that the content of proposals submitted to General Meetings of Shareholders does not damage the SBI Group\u2019s corporate value and taking into consideration the circumstances of investee companies.\n(5) Anti-takeover Measures\nIn principle, the Company does not adopt anti-takeover measures.\n(6) Related Party Transactions\nWhen the Company engages in a transaction with a principal shareholder (a shareholder holding 10% or more of voting rights) or when the Company engages in a transaction with a Director of the Company, approval of the Board of Directors shall be required.\nExcept for the above, when the Company or a subsidiary of the Company engages in a transaction with a related party, the Board of Directors shall appropriately monitor the details of the transaction.\n4. Relationships with Employees\n(1) Fair Remuneration Linked to Employees\u2019 Motivation\nBased on the Group\u2019s policy to reward those who have merited success, and to offer positions to those who exhibit good sense and judgement, the processes that lead to results are evaluated, as well as the results themselves in determining the employees\u2019 remuneration. The evaluations are based on a comprehensive range of other criteria, including experience, ability and contribution to business performance.\n(2) Respect for Diversity\nThe SBI Group engages in initiatives to enable each employee to actively contribute regardless of nationality, race, religion, age, gender, or disability, focuses on creating a workplace environment in which employees can develop wide perspectives, autonomously build their careers, and actively contribute in various fields. Furthermore, the Group evaluates employees in accordance with their abilities, making no distinction based on gender in hiring, advancement, or promotion.\n(3) Whistle-blowing System\n(i) The Company has established a whistle-blowing system for SBI Group officers and employees to directly report violations of laws, regulations, or the Articles of Incorporation or other important compliance-related matters and periodically reports to the Statutory Auditors on the status and content of reports made via the whistle-blowing system.\n(ii) The Company does not dismiss or subject to any other disadvantageous treatment to persons who have made reports via the whistle-blowing system or SBI Group officers and employees or Statutory Auditors of subsidiaries who have reported to the Company\u2019s Statutory Auditors, any matter pertaining to the performance of duties by SBI Group officers and employees.\n(iii) The Board of Directors supervises the status of whistle-blowing system operation.\n5. Relationships with the Community\nThe SBI Group\u2019s underlying approach to business is not solely guided by the profit motive, but by its belief in contributing to a society that is safe, fair, comfortable and environmentally friendly. Based on this belief, while seeking harmony with various stakeholders as a constituent member of society, the SBI Group not only proactively commercializes and practices the ideals of social justice, but also through direct social contributions actively engages in direct social contribution activities to contribute to the creation of a sustainable society.\nThe Company has selected a Company with Board of Statutory Auditors system as its organizational structure and has established a Board of Directors and Board of Statutory Auditors.\nThe Board of Directors decides important matters, supervises the status of business execution, and in principle, by securing one third of the total number of Directors as Outside Directors who pose no risk of conflict of interest with general shareholders and meet the independence criteria established by the Company (see Attachment 2; hereafter \u201cIndependent Outside Directors\u201d), strengthens the supervision of management appropriateness and improves management transparency. The Board of Statutory Auditors has the responsibility to establish a good corporate governance system that maintains the trust of society by auditing the Directors\u2019 performance of duties as an organization independent from the executive bodies. In particular, the Statutory Auditors are directly elected by the shareholders and have the authority to conduct investigations of subsidiaries or audits at their sole discretion in the pursuit of responsibility of Directors. The Standing Statutory Auditors play a central role in appropriately ensuring collaboration between the Statutory Auditors or Board of Statutory Auditors and Independent Outside Directors and Accounting Auditor, and endeavor to realize a more effective corporate governance system.\nThe Company seeks to enhance the functionality of the Board of Directors and the objectivity and transparency of deliberation processes with respect to the designation of candidates for Directors and Statutory Auditors, the appointment/dismissal of management executives (President, Senior Executive Vice President, Senior Managing Director and Managing Director), the compensation for Directors, as well as the development of the next generation of management executives. In doing so, it established the Management Advisory Committee, a voluntary advisory organization for the Board of Directors, in which the majority of the committee members are Independent Outside Directors.\n1. Directors and the Board of Directors\n(1) Roles and Responsibilities of Directors\nThe Directors shall recognize their fiduciary duty to shareholders and act in the common interest of the Company and shareholders while ensuring appropriate cooperation with stakeholders.

The reason for the appointment and dismissal of candidates for Directors and Statutory Auditors is described in the convocation notice.\n(vii) The Representative Director selects candidates for management executives mainly from among the executive officers and strives to foster such candidates to develop the next generation of management executives that contribute to the Company\u2019s sustainable growth. The Representative Director supports candidates' efforts for self-improvement through the daily execution of duties while evaluating their capability, personality, dignity and insights from a range of perspectives.\nIn addition, the Board of Directors consults with the Management Advisory Committee regarding the development of the relevant candidates for executives and receives feedback from the Committee. In doing so, it undertakes adequate supervision regarding how the development is being carried out; namely, assessing whether or not insights, decisiveness and the ability to perform the duties required for future management executives are being developed, as well as the evaluation of the actual results and achievements.\n\uff083\uff09Nomination of Director Candidates\n(i) Procedure\nTo determine Director candidates, the Representative Director selects individuals that he/she considers to be qualified based on the performance of their duties. Meanwhile, the Board of Directors designates Director candidates after consulting with the Management Advisory Committee regarding whether or not such candidates satisfy the qualities and abilities required for Directors or management personnel, and appoints them as Directors through the resolution of the General Meeting of Shareholders.\n(ii) Policy\nWith respect to the designation of Director candidates, attention shall be paid to securing a reasonable number of members to convene meetings flexibly and conduct discussions actively. In addition, the matters listed below shall be considered while simultaneously considering the balance between knowledge, experience, capabilities and roles that are expected of Directors, regardless of their nationality, race or gender.\n\u30fb Director candidates are determined by considering the following two requirements;\na Director candidates recognize their fiduciary duty to shareholders and have qualities that enable them to appropriately perform their duties with the care of a prudent manager and loyalty toward the Company.\nb Director candidates possess sufficient professional knowledge and a wealth of experience in management or management supervision and are able to engage in appropriate decision-making to contribute to enhancing the Company\u2019s corporate value.\n\u30fb Candidates for Independent Outside Directors are expected to have sufficient insights to supervise management from a third-party perspective, extensive job experience, high-level expertise in areas such as company management, financing, accounting and laws, or knowledge and experience of the Company\u2019s business areas.\n\u30fb If Independent Outside Director candidates concurrently hold positions as officers of other companies, it shall be possible for them to appropriately fulfill the abovementioned role in the Company.\n\u30fb Director candidates the Company plans to appoint as management executives are expected to be able to contribute to enhancement of the Company\u2019s corporate value utilizing their knowledge and experience of the SBI Group as a whole or the SBI Group\u2019s important businesses.\n\uff084\uff09 Compensation for Directors\nCompensation for Directors consists of basic compensation, which is fixed compensation, and performance-linked bonuses based on business results that are provided as short-term incentives. The Board of Directors determines the amounts to be paid after receiving feedback from the Management Advisory Committee, taking into consideration a range of factors such as the details of duties and the level of responsibility, authority and contribution, within the range of the total compensation amount approved at the General Meeting of Shareholders. However, if the Board of Directors leaves the decision to the Representative Director, the Representative Director makes such a decision.\nThe Company recognizes that from an incentive perspective, it is effective to some extent to hold shares for the purpose of further increasing motivation that contributes to the enhancement of corporate value on a medium- to long-term basis. Even so, it considers that stock compensation plans based on its own shares may result in the pursuit of short-term profits and excessive risk-taking initiatives. It therefore considers that the introduction of stock compensation plans should be discussed as much as possible at meetings of the Board of Directors and Management Advisory Committee, and whether or not it is appropriate to introduce such programs should be fully examined. Based on this stance, the Company has not yet introduced any stock compensation program, in which its own shares are used. Going forward, however, it will actively consider introducing such a program.\nThe amount of compensation (excluding bonuses) is decided for each Director taking into consideration the following matters.\n\u30fb The maximum amount of employee salary\n\u30fb Compensation paid to Directors of the same rank in the past\n\u30fb The Company\u2019s business performance outlook\n\u30fb The going rate for Director compensation\n\u30fb The degree of contribution to the Company\u2019s business performance, etc.\n\u30fb The circumstances of accession to office\n\u30fb Other matters\nDirectors\u2019 bonuses are determined for each individual Director on the basis of the status of performance of duties.\n(5) Management Advisory Committee\nThe Company is working on strengthening the supervisory functions of the Board of Directors while increasing management transparency from an outside perspective through the use of multiple Independent Outside Directors.\nThe Management Advisory Committee, a voluntary advisory organization for the Board of Directors, in which the majority of the committee members are Independent Outside Directors, is operated for the purpose of being properly involved with the function of the Board of Directors and the deliberation processes thereof related to the designation of candidates for Directors and Statutory Auditors, the appointment/dismissal of management executives, compensation for Directors, as well as the development of the next generation of management executives. In doing so, the Committee increases the objectivity and transparency of the decisions the Board of Directors makes, and further enhance the Company\u2019s corporate governance system.\nIndependent Outside Directors engage in proper and active discussions at meetings of the Board of Directors and seek to exchange information and share recognition based on an objective standpoint at such meetings that are held periodically to execute the duties properly from an independent standpoint.\nIn the meantime, Statutory Auditors may participate in the Management Advisory Committee as necessary.\n(6) Board Evaluation\nThe Board of Directors strives to improve its effectiveness by analyzing and evaluating the overall effectiveness of the Board of Directors once a year, and endeavors to improve issues that are identified.\n2.

Accounting Auditor\nThe Company recognizes that the Accounting Auditor has an important role of ensuring the reliability of financial information and has a duty toward shareholders and investors. In addition, to prepare an environment that makes it possible for the Accounting Auditor to appropriately conduct audits, the Company endeavors to secure an audit schedule and prepare a conference room for the exclusive use of the Accounting Auditor, arranges regular interviews between the Accounting Auditor and the Company\u2019s Representative Director and CFO, and secures a framework for liaison with the Statutory Auditors, Internal Auditing Department and Independent Outside Directors.\nIf the Accounting Auditor discovers misconduct and requests an appropriate response or identifies any defect or problem, it immediately liaises with the Board of Directors and Board of Statutory Auditors, and the Directors in charge take the lead in examining and correcting the situation under the direction of the Representative Director.\n(1) Board of Directors Operating Policy\nThe Board of Directors has established the following policy for operation of Board of Directors Meetings for the purpose of stimulating deliberation and discussion.\n(i) Board of Directors Meeting materials are distributed to the Directors and Statutory Auditors well in advance of meetings.\n(ii) The Company provides sufficient information to the Directors and Statutory Auditors as necessary concerning matters to be deliberated.\n(iii) The annual Board of Directors Meeting schedule and expected matters to be deliberated are notified in advance.\n(2) Access to Information and Support Framework\nThe Company has developed and operates a framework for information sharing and otherwise providing appropriate support at the request of Directors and Statutory Auditors.

The investor relations department is responsible for individual meetings with shareholders and investors. When there are requests for individual meeting, the Representative Directors, Directors (including Independent Outside Directors) and Executive Officers attend as necessary.\nTo rationally and smoothly engage in dialogues with shareholders and investors at financial results announcements and investor briefings, the investor relations department plays a central role in providing accurate, unbiased information to shareholders and investors while closely liaising with involved departments.\nThe Company holds quarterly financial results briefings, semi-annual briefings for individual shareholders, Current Management Information Briefings after the General Meeting of Shareholders, and other events as means of dialogue other than individual meetings and actively arranges opportunities for the executive team to engage in direct communication with shareholders and investors, such as participation from time to time in conferences held by securities companies in Japan and overseas.

Back in 1991, Anderson, who serves as president and CEO, purchased a distribution operation from Martin Brower that serviced McDonald\u2019s restaurants out of Solon and still maintains more than a dozen McDonald\u2019s distribution centers in the U.S.\nHe had approached McDonald\u2019s two years earlier and told the restaurant chain that he would work for free in return for the opportunity to operate a McDonald\u2019s distribution center. If he proved himself worthy, he would get the opportunity to purchase and operate one at the end of his work. McDonald\u2019s agreed to give Anderson the chance and he proved to be a master at running every aspect of the business. Two years later, through hard work and securing his own financing, he was able to create and open his own distribution operation.\nRonald M.

        "raw_content": "Schulich Leader Scholarship Winners Offer Tips to Foot University Bills\nSince 1995, The Schulich Foundation has funded thousands of scholarships through a vast network of post-secondary educational benefactions ranging from the University of Calgary\u2019s Schulich School of Engineering to Dalhousie University\u2019s Schulich School of Law. To date, there has been no greater conduit of channeling the foundation\u2019s charitable dollars directly to students than Schulich Leader Scholarships, established in 2011 across twenty leading Canadian universities.\nOf the growing network of 300+ scholarship recipients, there are a host of savvy students who became hugely successful in navigating the scholarships landscape as high school seniors.\nHere are some helpful tips to students hoping to fund their undergraduate degrees:\nFor major scholarships like Schulich Leader Scholarships that put zero restrictions on accumulating additional scholarships or bursaries to the already substantial $80,000 or $60,000 award; some past recipients entered university after amassing six figure bank accounts by capitalizing on scholarship opportunities wherever possible. Sherry Wong, a second-year biomedical student and 2014 Schulich Leader at York University says \u201cThere is a misconception amongst graduating high school students that there are no longer any scholarship opportunities by February. However, students can still apply and win a variety of scholarships leading up to September of their entering year, and even after starting college or university. The application process does not need to stop upon graduating high school.\u201d\nThat misconception is likely what keeps some $15 million in unclaimed scholarships and grants (by a conservative estimate) each year according to Yconic\u2019s CEO Rob Henderson [1] With an average student debt rate hovering around $30,000 per student, you would think students would be snapping up bursaries far and wide.\n\u201cStudents don\u2019t realize how accessible opportunities are because it takes work to seek them out\u2026After I get home from my extra-curriculars and finish my school work, I would spend an hour or so every night in grade 12 searching for scholarships and awards.\u201d Says Wong, who went on to launch Young Scholar, a community resource providing pragmatic advice to students looking to fund their post-secondary education.\nMichael Gilbert, a third-year medicinal chemistry student and 2013 Schulich Leader at UNB believes in the local approach to securing financial aid for your studies. \u201cI would recommend going to see your high school guidance counselor and asking about scholarships offered by the school and local organizations. Often, these types of scholarships do not get a lot of applicants and the process isn't too intensive. They may be small, but they add up quick!\u201d says Gilbert. Financial aid towards higher education can often be found at your parents employer, an untapped but often plentiful resource for student aid.\nGo Get'em and Good Luck!\nThe Schulich Foundation wishes all 2016 Schulich Leader Nominees the best of luck during the national adjudication process at our 20 university partners starting this March through May, and wish you continued success in securing alternative funds towards your Higher Ed pursuits. With the majority of major scholarship applications coming due, the time is ripe for all university bound high school graduates to seek out alternative means to fund the rising costs of post-secondary education. Your resume and chequing account will thank you later for the efforts you put in now!\n[1] https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/blogs/pay-day-/millions-canadian-scholarship-dollars-going-unclaimed-193114435.html",

        "title": "Forensics: The science of crime -",
        "raw_content": "In today's world, forensic science has been largely portrayed by television producers with programmes giving some insights into the subject. Forensic science is portrayed as being science used by police to investigate crimes - but this is only a half-truth.\nIt is true that the largest employers of forensic scientists in this country are police and agencies whose major workload is carrying out investigations of criminal activity. However, forensic science is also a science that aids the legal system, including the civil courts and public inquiries. The use of forensic science even extends to matters that do not go to court, such as the investigation of fires and accidents on behalf of insurance companies. These cases rarely reach the courtroom, but often involve some form of scientific investigation. Perhaps the most striking feature of forensic science as portrayed on television is the wide range of disciplines involved, both at the scene of the incident and in the laboratory.\nFor many cases, the examination starts at the scene of an incident - and this is a speciality in its own right. If materials are not collected and properly stored, they cannot be examined. The crime-scene officers work for the various police forces, and it is they who identify and collect samples that may assist the investigator. Their work is varied, the next job may be another house-breaking, or it may be a major crime such as a murder or terrorist offence. No matter what, their responsibility is to recognise and collect what is important, and then send it to a laboratory for examination. They even need to ensure that the laboratory staff have sufficient information for them to carry out a suitable analysis.\nThe laboratory work is mainly an application of the techniques of analytical science. In the chemistry branch, the main analytical tools are various forms of chromatography, mass spectrometry and infrared spectrophotometer. These are used when analysing samples for dyes, such as those occurring on textile fibres, when analysing materials such as petrol which may have been used to start fires, or when testing for the presence of illicit drugs in a variety of sample types. In the biology branch, clearly a considerably amount of work involves molecular biology, since DNA technology has revolutionised forensic biology during the last decade. However, there is much more to forensic biology than the application of molecular biology - for example, a study of blood splash patterns can be important in distinguishing between a villain and a Good Samaritan. Other aspects of forensic science involve less common analytical techniques, such as the use of comparison microscopes to examine tool marks.\nIf forensic science were restricted to the above, then it would merely be analytical science. However, the distinguishing features of forensic science are its professional aspects. In forensic science, it is very often necessary to 'first find your sample'; searching for suitable samples is an integral part of the job, and with the introduction of ever more sensitive analytical techniques, such samples can be smaller and smaller.\nAny one case may involve a wide variety of samples, such as tool marks, paint, glass, textile fibres and blood. Whilst it may be technically possible to analyse all of these samples, it is generally undesirable to do so, since forensic science must be cost-effective as well as generally effective! This means that finding the best selection of samples and analytical techniques for those sources is an important part of the job.\nThe prime entry requirement for a career in forensic science is a good Honours degree, grade 2-1 or better, in a relevant subject such as chemistry, biochemistry or molecular biology. However, such is the diversity of forensic science that graduates with other degrees are also considered - for example, engineers carry out traffic accident investigation.\nRegardless of the degree, personal attributes are also important. Interaction with others is crucial, since investigations are team affairs, requiring interaction together with a variety of other disciplines. No matter how sophisticated the science, or how meticulously the work carried out, it is all to no avail if the findings cannot be communicated clearly to the courts. Communications are particularly challenging in forensic science, since the recipients may well have little or no scientific training. All communication is initially in writing, and may well be followed by verbal presentations in the courts.\nThe most apparent employers are forensic science laboratories operated by police forces and the Home Office Forensic Science Service; and scientific support units operated by police forces to examine incident scenes. However, there is a wide range of other employers working in forensic science - for example, in drug screening laboratories - and some graduates have chosen these alternatives as their career.",

(Image provided)\nSolinftec, a leading digital ag company based in Brazil, to expand its innovative technology by providing American farmers with actionable insights, plans to establish office at Purdue Research Park, create 90 jobs in 2019 and more than 300 by 2022.\nWest Lafayette, IN (November 29, 2018) \u2013 Solinftec, a digital agriculture company that grew quickly in Latin America by making sugar cane and row crop operations more efficient, announced Nov. 29 that it plans to establish operations at its United States headquarters near Purdue University to bring high-tech solutions to American farmers, creating 90 jobs in 2019 and up to 334 high-wage jobs by 2022.\n\u201cSolinftec has shown a passion for discovering innovative solutions to improve agriculture operations through science, engineering and more recently AI,\u201d says Daniel Padr\u00e3o, Solinftec\u2019s chief operating officer. \u201cThat is why we are excited about the opportunity to work with a renowned research university such as Purdue and its College of Agriculture as we continue to expand our platforms into new geographies.\u201d\nSolinftec (SOL-inf-tek) plans to expand its innovations to the United States and increase its tech-based offerings for United States customers in the agriculture industry. Solinftec built its reputation by creating Internet of Things platforms to integrate and digitize all aspects of farming operations. The company has the technology to monitor farming processes and provides real-time actionable insights that increase crop returns by acre.\nSolinftec\u2019s first virtual assistance technology, called \u2018Alice,\u2019 involves installing a smart black box in agricultural equipment and sensors in the field under a user-friendly platform.\n\u201cFollowing on the heels of Inari\u2019s decision to locate its Seed Foundry at Purdue, this shows that the Wabash Heartland area, with Purdue as an economic magnet, has a very real chance of becoming a world center of precision agriculture,\u201d Purdue University President Mitch Daniels says.\nIndiana is a leading center for the agbiosciences, with the sector contributing roughly $16 billion to the state\u2019s gross domestic product a year. Approximately 65,000 jobs in Indiana are supported by agbioscience companies. Indiana is also a leading producer of corn, soybeans and processing tomatoes, which are areas in which Solinftec is looking to expand.\n\u201cIndiana is at the center of innovation in agtech, and today\u2019s news is yet another example of the collaborative ecosystem we\u2019ve created here,\u201d Gov. Eric J. Holcomb says. \u201cSolinftec choosing to locate its first U.S. operation and its U.S. headquarters in Tippecanoe County will not only create hundreds of high-skilled, high-wage jobs, but it will bolster an industry that is developing new solutions, improving agricultural products consumed around the world, and enabling farmers in Indiana and beyond to grow their operations.\u201d\u00ad\nPadr\u00e3o says a factor in moving to Indiana was to be close to Purdue and its College of Agriculture, which is ranked as ninth best in the world according to QS World Rankings, and its Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, which is ranked as the best in the United States by US News and World Report. Solinftec also used Tom Farms in Huntington County as a trial farm to move into row crops.\n\"The U.S. Midwest is core to our strategy; we recognize its importance in the global food and its ag ecosystem. We are humbled and thrilled to launch our U.S. headquarters out of the state of Indiana. We thank the state government, AgriNovus Indiana, Purdue University and Tom Farms for their vision on supporting this initiative and for everyone\u2019s Hoosier hospitality,\u201d saysRenato Hersz, Solinftec's strategy and corporate development director.\nAnother factor in Solinftec\u2019s decision was the opportunity to work with the Wabash Heartland Innovation Network (WHIN), a consortium of 10 counties in north-central Indiana working to harness the power of internet-enabled sensors to develop the region into a global epicenter of digital agricultural and next-generation manufacturing. A recent $40 million grant from Lilly Endowment established the network.\n\u201cJust within the WHIN region in north-central Indiana, there are over 5,000 farms that could benefit from the insights generated by Solinftec\u2019s ability to capture data from various sources and use that data to create predictive analyses,\u201d says Johnny Park, CEO of WHIN. \u201cThey are an example of what is possible here and having them as a local leader will help us show others what is possible too. Together we can help our farmers be the best they can be.\u201d\nSolinftec\u2019s solution is present in more than 16 million acres, and its equipment is monitored in real time by more than 100,000 daily users, according to Hersz. The company serves large international growers such as Ra\u00edzen, which reports more than 3,000 monitored equipment, the largest telemetry system in the world. Other international companies served by Solinftec include Tereos, Cofco and British Petroleum, all in the field of sugar cane crops, and Amaggi, Bom Futuro e Terra Santa, a grower in row crops.\nAmong the 10 largest companies in the sugar and ethanol sector, eight are customers of the company, and among the five largest producers of grains and fibers three are in its portfolio.\nSolinftec is working in relevant commercial and technological partnerships with original equipment manufacturers and cooperatives that will be announced in due time to serve the American farmer. Solinftec has also received Series B funding from AgFunder and TPG in their first round of 2018 AgTech investments, where they look to invest in bold and exceptional founders who are committed to building the next generation of agrifood tech companies.\nAs Indiana\u2019s land-grant university, Purdue has Extension offices in all of Indiana\u2019s 92 counties to assist farmers and growers across the state and conducts world-renowned agriculture research that serves the U.S. and the global society. The College of Agriculture also has been home to three World Food Prize laureates, two faculty and one distinguished alumnus.\nSolinftec\u2019s expansion into the Purdue Research Park was announced Thursday (Nov. 29) during the Agbioscience Innovation Summit put on by AgriNovus Indiana in Indianapolis.\n\u201cAgriNovus and Solinftec first crossed paths earlier this year at an Ag Tech conference in San Francisco,\u201d says Beth Bechdol, president and CEO of AgriNovus Indiana. \u201cTheir commitment to bringing their technology to row crops and to the Midwest was clear, and I\u2019m thrilled that they recognized the depth and diversity of Indiana\u2019s agbioscience assets. It is exciting to see several companies in just a few short months move or expand in Indiana, and we welcome Solinftec to our agbioscience community.\u201d\nThe collaboration aligns with Purdue's \"Giant Leaps\" celebrating the university\u2019s global advancements made in health, space, artificial intelligence and sustainability highlights as part of Purdue\u2019s 150th anniversary. Those are the four themes of the yearlong celebration\u2019s Ideas Festival, designed to showcase Purdue as an intellectual center solving real-world issues.\nSolinftec is the second agriculture-related business this month to announce plans to move into the Purdue Research Park. Inari, a Flagship Pioneering company, announced on Nov. 8 that it was expanding from Cambridge, Massachusetts, as it seeks to reintroduce genetic diversity into the seed industry.\n\u201cWe are so happy to hear of Solinftec\u2019s decision to locate here in West Lafayette. Indiana. Purdue, the Purdue Research Foundation, Tippecanoe County and Greater Lafayette Commerce have been leading the way in making our community one of the best places in the world to focus on technology, agriculture and their convergence. As a person who happily calls West Lafayette home, I know Solinftec will enjoy its new American hometown,\u201d West Lafayette Mayor John R. Dennis says.\nFounded in 2007, Solinftec provides solutions to give farm operations information about the status of their machines and their progress based on their positioning and what activity they\u2019re undertaking. Combining this with harvest data, the company gives clients a verifiable record of their harvest and traceability from the farm to the truck to mill, without any human input. Solinftec is expanding its operations to America with its new U.S. headquarters in West Lafayette, Indiana.\nThe Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) leads the state of Indiana\u2019s economic development efforts, helping businesses launch, grow and locate in the state. Governed by a 15-member board chaired by Gov. Eric J. Holcomb, the IEDC manages many initiatives, including performance-based tax credits, workforce training grants, innovation and entrepreneurship resources, public infrastructure assistance, and talent attraction and retention efforts.

        "raw_content": "Invisible Wounds: Examining the Disability Compensation Benefits Process for Victims of Military Sexual Trauma\n\u201cWomen are the fastest growing population among veterans, making up 8 percent of the Armed Forces. However, the US Department of Defense estimates that one in four women who join the armed services will be raped or assaulted, but that only about 10 percent of such incidents are ever reported,\u201d stated Rep. Jon Runyan, Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs. \u201cEven more alarming is that of those few who did report incidents of military sexual trauma, over 75 percent stated that they would not make the same decision about reporting the incident again, due to the consequences it had on their military career.\u201d\nThe US Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that more than half a million men and women have been assaulted during their service in the military. Most veterans seeking treatment and compensation for military sexual assault lack evidence, mainly due to victims\u2019 low reporting of incidents for fear of retaliation, to support their disability compensation claims resulting in 20 percent fewer claims for Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS) being approved by VA when compared to combat-related PTS claims.\n\u201cThis process took me 23 years to resolve, and I am one of the fortunate ones. It should not be this way,\u201d stated Ruth Moore, a Navy veteran, who testified before the Subcommittee regarding the impact of repeated sexual assaults upon her in 1987 while stationed overseas. \u201cIf I had been treated promptly and received benefits in a timely manner, back at the time of my discharge, my life would have been much different.\u201d\nAt the moment, standards for those filing claims for PTS as a result of military sexual assault are different than standards applied to PTS claims for combat-related claims. Furthermore, VA demands collaboration of evidence for military sexual assault, putting the burden of proof on the victim, which in a majority of cases, does not exist.\n\u201cThere must be zero-tolerance for this behavior in the military, and VA must recognize the immediate trauma inflicted on these men and women,\u201d said Runyan. \u201cThis is a system that needs major reform and I am calling on VA to treat these victims with the compassion they deserve and ensure they receive the benefits they are due from their government.\u201d\nWitness Testimony of Ms. Margaret Middleton, Executive Director, Connecticut Veterans Legal Center\n\"Chairman Runyan, Ranking Member McNerney and Members of the Subcommittee, thank you very much for the opportunity to appear before you today and offer my testimony on the highly important issue of military sexual trauma and the VA\u2019s disability compensation benefits process. My name is Margaret Middleton. I am the Executive Director and co-founder of the Connecticut Veterans Legal Center. Our mission is to help veterans recovering from homelessness and mental illness overcome barriers to housing, healthcare, and income. I am also a visiting clinical lecturer co-teaching the Veterans Legal Services Clinic at Yale Law School. In both of these capacities I work with veterans seeking VA compensation for PTSD caused by sexual assault in the military.\n\"There are several experts at this hearing who have eloquently testified as to the appalling extent of sexual assault in the military and the scope of the VA\u2019s failure to assist those victims. Rather than repeat those statistics I\u2019d like to share some personal experiences I have had in representing veterans to illuminate how the evidentiary standard set forth in Title 38 of the Code of Federal Regulations section 3.304 prevents worthy claimants from receiving compensation they deserve.\nPhotograph of Marine helicopter pilot cleaning the rotor blade of her aircraft.

        "raw_content": "\u2018Yes Means Yes\u2019: Grappling With Teen Sexual Assault\nBy Teresa Wiltz, Stateline, Pew Trusts*\nA few years ago, when Mae Gayle Dalton was in the 9th grade, her close friend was sexually assaulted by a former boyfriend on school grounds. Making matters worse, Dalton said, school administrators punished her friend more severely than the boy. Fueled with rage, Dalton gave herself a crash course on sexual assault and the cultural forces that sometimes encourage it. And this year, as part of a Girl Scout project, she took on the task of educating her Danville, Virginia, community about what she learned.\nArmed with buttons and flyers, Dalton, now a high school senior, has been camping out at local fairs, Rotary Club meetings and school board sessions, giving speeches about her cause. And she's been pushing her state representative to support legislation that would require Virginia's public schools to teach \"yes means yes\" as a standard for sexual consent.\nThe usual approach, which relies on teaching kids that \"no means no,\" isn't enough, Dalton said. Often, when it comes to sexual activity, she said, \"there is a fine line. We have to un-blur it.\"\nSome states agree with her. In 2015, California became the first state to require that public schools teach students what\u2019s known as the affirmative consent standard, which requires a clear, unambiguous and voluntary agreement to participate in a specific sexual activity.\nLast month, Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a Democrat, signed a law that requires public middle and high schools to teach age-appropriate ways to prevent dating violence, domestic abuse, sexual harassment and sexual violence. (Dalton says the law doesn't go far enough because it doesn\u2019t specifically require that \"yes means yes\" be taught.)\nAlso in March, the Maryland House of Delegates approved a measure that would require public schools to teach the \"yes means yes\" standard for sexual consent. (The Maryland Senate failed to advance the bill this week, effectively killing it for this year.) Similar bills have been introduced this year in Illinois and Pennsylvania. And in February, the Nevada Youth Legislature, which has the power to pitch youth-oriented legislation to the state Legislature, introduced a bill that would, among other things, require public schools to teach students about affirmative consent.\nThe \"yes means yes\" measures don\u2019t change the legal definition of sexual assault. They vary from state to state, but generally, \"no means no\" remains the legal standard for prosecuting sexual assault cases.\nRelationships and Going Places, Health, Fitness and Style, News and Issues, Health and Science, Issues, Learning, Meeting Places and Romance, Grandparenting, Senior Women Web, Articles, Sightings, What's New",

        "raw_content": "Don\u2019t allow health scare to co-opt health care\nIf the public debate around healthcare were not so tremendously absurd, it would be laughable. True, there are many questions that one can rationally ask about national health care. The key word here is rationally.\nWhat we have witnessed in America, however, is anything but rational. It is staged, played, acted, and has detracted from the real issues of a national health-care program for all Americans. Let me take you back for a moment.\nHave we forgotten which nation was first to design and implement a public education system for all of its citizens? Let me remind you: It was America! This is one of our nation's most noble and celebrated moments.\nThomas Jefferson was among the first American leaders to suggest creating such an institution. Many of his ideas formed the basis of education systems developed in the 19th Century. After the Declaration of Independence, 14 states had their own constitutions by 1791.\nOut of the 14 states, seven had direct provisions for education. Jefferson believed that education should be under the control of the government. It should be free from religious biases and available to all people regardless of their status in society.\nOthers who advocated for public education at that same time were Benjamin Rush, Noah Webster, Robert Coram and George Washington. No, they were not socialists, communists or betrayers of the Constitution.\nPrior to the 1840s, the educational system was very limited and available only to the rich and powerful. Many reformers opposed this and desired all children to gain the benefits of a public education. A system of opportunity based on taxing land owners to help pay for the poor and the landless was initiated.\nLeaders such as Horace Mann in Massachusetts, Henry Barnard in Connecticut, and later Booker T. Washington in Alabama, and W. E. B. DuBois in Atlanta took the issue of public education for all people to a higher level.\nMann took the educational issues to the public. He and his supporters argued that common schooling could create good citizens, unite society, and eventually prevent criminal activity and reduce poverty.\nBooker T. Washington lifted up the African-American tradition, emphasizing a sound education and hard work; along with DuBois, who said, \u201cthat what African Americans needed was real education that would teach them to know, to think, and to aspire.\u201d\nThey did it without guns and swastikas, and without questioning the birth place of the president of the United States.\nThey never yelled, \u201cI want my country back,\u201d as if the country has somehow disappeared.\nNo, it did not eliminate private education! Many organizations, churches and others still maintained a private education for students in their community. As a matter of fact, it stimulated improvement and even greater options for education.\nToday, there are nearly 50 million Americans without health care. Jobs are scarce, industry is down, and retirees are suffering. Is this movement about lifting up health care, or is it about bringing down the president? Is this about national health care, or is it really about a national health scare? After all, the defeat of a national health-care program in the eyes of some could become the president\u2019s ultimate Waterloo.\nHow can we allow the \u201cjust say no crowd\u201d to take away from all Americans the most significant issue of public aid for every American since public education was first created? The president of the United States is gonna be alright.\nCongress and the Senate are gonna be alright. They all have more than adequate health care.\nWhat about my momma and daddy? What about your grandfather and your uncles and aunties? What about your children? How can the most powerful nation on earth, with the most talented and gifted people (so we claim), allow Canada, France, Cuba, Sweden, the Netherlands, Germany and a host of other nations to take greater care of their citizens than the leader of the free world does for her own?\nLet\u2019s stop the madness. No, there are not death panels, no government-funded abortions, no elimination of your private health care, no elimination of your personal physician, no Nazi takeover, but it can be a very positive makeover for a healthy life.\nWe need a national health-care program. America drags behind 30 other nations with a life expectancy of its citizens of 78 years. Meanwhile, Japan as the number 1 nation has a life expectancy of 83 years for its citizens.\nIn case you have forgotten, we already have government-sponsored health care. It is called Medicaid/\nMedicare. The president must stand strong along with reasonable people who know better.\nThis is not about the people of America. It is about special interests who cannot accept the political reality in America.\nWe have a new president. He is the first African American, a new commander-in-chief who seems to want to do something for all the people. This includes people of every race, regardless of station or vocation.\nSo, let\u2019s stop scaring the people, and let us begin to care for the people.

        "raw_content": "A primer on intellectual disability\nI\u2019ve started giving talks about Uncle Melrose and the world that he and other people with intellectual disabilities have lived in for the past century. In making these presentations, I\u2019ve found that many people are not familiar with the term \u201cintellectual disability.\u201d\nI find that I need to explain not only what it is, but explain the difference between intellectual disability and mental illness.\nThe two are often confused, but they are very different human conditions.\nTwenty years ago, we referred to people with intellectual disabilities as being \u201cmentally retarded.\u201d This terminology, although it is far preferable to some of the labels that were common 100 years ago, is no longer considered acceptable.\nToday, if you have an intellectual disability, it was usually present at birth. People who are described in this way have a permanent condition in which their intellectual functioning is impaired. They cannot be \u201ccured,\u201d but can live successful lives with the right kind support.\nMental illness, on the other hand, has nothing to do with intelligence level. Mental illness is a medical condition that disrupts thinking, emotions, moods, and daily functioning. Mental illnesses include schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression.\nWhether a person has mental illness or an intellectual disability, it is important to note that their condition is not due to lack of character or poor upbringing. These impairments can happen to anyone, regardless of their race, sex, country of origin or income level.",

        "title": "Update on Religious Liberty Battle: Appeals Court Rules for Colleges and New Cases | David J. Shestokas",
        "raw_content": "Update on Religious Liberty Battle: Appeals Court Rules for Colleges and New Cases\nFiled Under: Legal News Tagged With: HHS Contraceptive Mandate, Obama, religion\nOn December 18, 2012, an appeals court ruling in the battle for religious liberty opposing imposition of an Obamacare contraception mandate favored the religious colleges opposing the mandate. With the December 14 filing of a suit by Domino\u2019s Farms and Thomas Monaghan, the number of federal lawsuits around the country has grown to 42.\nThe battle against the federal assault on religious liberty saw a step forward for opponents of a mandate from the Obama administration requiring employers to include certain contraception services as part of employee health plans. (For detailed discussion of the issues see Ongoing Legal Battles Against The Federal Assault on Religious Liberty)\nAppeals Court Agrees Religious Schools Are Injured by Obamacare Mandate\nCatholic Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina and evangelical Wheaton College in Illinois had filed lawsuits in federal district court opposing the mandate on November 10, 2011 and July 18, 2012 respectively. Both cases were dismissed on essentially the same grounds: the government was working on new regulations and promised not to enforce the mandate that was in place, so there was no injury to religious liberty.\nThe district court dismissals were based on the legal concept of \u201cstanding\u201d.[1] Both Belmont and Wheaton appealed the dismissals to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals in the District of Columbia. The appellate court heard both cases together.\nIn its December 18th opinion the court said the district courts\u2019 dismissal \u201cfor lack of standing was erroneous \u2026\u201d The court further noted that the government had made a promise during argument to \u201cnever enforce\u201d the contraceptive mandate against Belmont and Wheaton and other similar institutions, and that new rules would be forthcoming for such institutions.\nThe court ordered the government to file with the court status reports every sixty days and indicated the government would be held to its promise of non-enforcement. The ruling was a victory for the challengers of the contraceptive mandate. Implicit in the court\u2019s finding the colleges had standing is the court\u2019s belief that the mandate is an injury to the First Amendment\u2019s protections of religious liberty.\nOrders in Michigan & DC Prohibit Government Enforcement of Mandate\nOn October 31st, Daniel Weingartz, and Weingartz Supply Company were granted a preliminary injunction prohibiting enforcement of the contraceptive mandate as to Weingartz and his privately held company. In accordance with his Roman Catholic faith, Weingartz, designed a health insurance policy for the employees of Weingartz Supply to specifically exclude contraceptive services. The mandate rules for private employers require the inclusion of such services in employee health plans. Weingartz argued to the court that he would be forced to choose between providing health insurance that includes contraception without cost-sharing or incurring a financial penalty, and that such a choice is a substantial burden on the free exercise of religion.\nUS District Court Judge Robert H. Cleland, noting \u201c[t]he loss of First Amendment freedoms, for even minimal periods of time, unquestionably constitutes irreparable injury\u201d granted Weingartz request for an injunction and directed the government to file with the court on the first Monday of each month a report on the status of amending the regulations.\nA similar injunction was issued by US District Court Judge Reggie B. Walton in favor of Tyndale Publishing on November 16th. Tyndale publishes a wide array of Christian books ranging from Bible commentaries to books about family issues to Christian fiction. The publishing company employs 260 full-time employees, and provides them with health insurance through a self-insured health plan. Tyndale omits from its employee health plan any coverage of abortions and of drugs or devices that can cause the demise of an already conceived/fertilized human embryo. This omission is due to the religious beliefs under which Tyndale operates.\nIn issuing the injunction, Judge Walton noted: \u201c\u2026First Amendment rights are among the most precious rights guaranteed under the Constitution.\u201d\nHobby Lobby Request for Injunction Denied\nUnlike, Judges Cleland and Walton in the Weingartz and Tyndale cases, US District Court Judge Joe Heaton in Oklahoma found that the contraceptive mandate did not substantially burden the religious freedoms of the Green family of the Christian-owned-and-operated Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.\nJudge Heaton denied the injunction request despite the Green family\u2019s religious beliefs which prohibit them from deliberately providing insurance coverage for prescription drugs or devices inconsistent with their faith, in particular abortion-causing drugs and devices. Hobby Lobby\u2019s insurance policies have long explicitly excluded contraceptive devices that might cause abortions and pregnancy-termination drugs like RU-486.\nOn December 20, 2012, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals denied an appeal of Judge Heaton\u2019s ruling against the Greens and Hobby Lobby. With that denial, the Greens\u2019 only recourse, represented by the Beckett Fund for Religious Liberty may be the first of the contraceptive mandate cases to reach the United States Supreme Court.\nThe Legal Battle Grows with Domino Farms Suit\nThomas Mohaghn\nOn December 14th a Michigan company, Domino Farms Corporation, filed the 42nd lawsuit opposing the contraceptive mandate on religious grounds. Domino Farms sole owner and shareholder is Thomas Monaghn. Mr. Monaghn was the founder of Domino\u2019s Pizza and owner of the Detroit Tigers from 1983 to 1992. He is a devout Catholic who has devoted his life to the furtherance of Catholic education with the founding of Ave Maria University and Ave Maria School of Law.\nDomino Farms is subject to the mandate. The complaint in the case highlights the serious nature of the burden on religion placed by the mandate as follows:\n\u201cBased on the teachings of the Catholic Church, and their deeply held religious beliefs, Plaintiffs do not believe that contraception, sterilization, or abortion is properly understood to constitute medicine, health care, or a means of providing for the well being of persons. Indeed, Plaintiffs believe these procedures involve gravely immoral practices, specifically the intentional destruction of innocent human life.\u201d\nWith that, that battle continues.\n[1] \u201cStanding to sue\u201d is a legal principle defining the circumstances which must exist before a party is entitled to have a court decide the merits of his case. In U.S. federal court a party must meet many requirements to have \u201cstanding\u201d. Among the requirements for standing:\nRedressability\nThe requirement of \u201cstanding\u201d comes from the Constitution\u2019s Article III grant of power to federal courts in \u201ccases\u201d and \u201ccontroversies\u201d.\n[\u2026] Fund maintains a regularly updated site tracking the status of all the cases involved As of December 20. 2012, the number of lawsiots has grown to 42 and a DC appellate court has sided with the plaintiffs on the [\u2026]\n[\u2026] tension between government and religion is ongoing. Currently there are 43 lawsuits around the United States challenging the constitutional authority of the government to impose upon employers requirements to [\u2026]\nNew HHS Contraception Mandate Rules Create a Shell Game | David J.

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s is so kind & humbling, as a Singapore emcee and for all of us in this industry when one of Singapore\u2019s top Creative Agencies go out of their way to find out the \u2018behind the scenes\u2019 of what makes our industry pulsate & move forward & what gives us \u2018staying power\u2019. Not just for our side, but for many facets of the entertainment industry. Advocate is one of those rare ones\u2026. here\u2019s the original post of this interview.\nhttp://advocatestar.com/donna-daniels.html\n\u201cWe had the opportunity to work with this dynamic duo that have graced the stage of the entertainment industry for more than a decade. We look into the journey of Donna & Harvey, unravelling their secrets to staying strong and dominant in the industry.\nDonna, the emcee services extraordinaire, can be described as one of the reigning queens of the business. With her easy charms and charismatic demeanour, this vibrant individual commands the stage with her presence. Donna is more than just a professional emcee, she\u2019s an entertainer with the passion to liven up any room (and she has already brought life to thousands).\nAs the saying goes; behind every successful man, there is a woman. In this case, while the man is backstage, the woman showcases her magic on stage; making every show a success. Harvey is the main man behind Donna\u2019s creative antics; cleverly synchronizing her every move with sound and visual effects. It is a feat to watch the duo at their best.\nAs we sat down with the fantastic pair, the interview unveiled some of the industry\u2019s \u2018insides\u2019 which left us (a little) dumbfounded but stricken with laughter.\nWhy did you choose to be in the entertainment industry?\nDonna: Working as a cleaner is tough, working in a petrol station is bad for your health, working as a shop assistant is boring. That\u2019s why we went into entertainment! (Laughs).\nWas it difficult to get to where you are at now?\nDonna: Was it hard? Yes, but we got used to hard work. Did we have to face difficulties? Definitely!\nWhat are some of the hurdles that you guys had to go through?\nDonna: We were not paid for our first job and were dead broke, living on baked beans (and we still like baked beans to this day). Did the jobs come thick & fast? No, the jobs came slow and slower.\nHarvey went knocking on door to door for 6 months, with all doors slammed in his face. Was it hard? You bet! Did we survive? You bet!\n\u201cWe had a garage sale and sold off everything we owned to pay our rent and had another month\u2019s supply of baked beans. Were we sad? No. We were over the moon that we\u2019d burned our bridges and were embarking on this new empowering time of our lives. We were in it for the long haul! As Austin Powers would say\u2026.\u201dYeah, baby!\u201d\u201d\nTell us about your \u2018big break\u2019.\nDonna: So, firstly, a creative agency took a \u2018risk\u2019 on us. Then came another, and another and just like magic, we were \u2018hot!\u2019 Reputation spreads like wildfire in this business. When the jobs came, we gave our best; the best we could give every time and that has always been our motto.\n\u201cGive our best to the audiences, the people who promote us and the people who work with us. Because ultimately, it\u2019s a team effort, and if it wasn\u2019t for them, we would not be where we are at now.\u201d\nWe love and thank everyone. Mmmwaah! (Laughs).\nHow, as a Singapore emcee, has working with creative agencies helped you in expanding yourselves as a duo?\nDonna: Jobs that came to us through creative agencies are all different. Their client\u2019s requirements are different. Our job is to work together with the creative agencies to meet the objectives of the clients. To do this, we are continually stretched \u2013 and this is great for expansion. We look forward to unusual requests (as long as they\u2019re legal and ethical). This is how we expand.\nWhat has been the memorable collaboration that you and Advocate have worked on?\nDonna: We\u2019ve worked with Advocate on numerous occasions and they have all been fun, exciting, successful events. Two of the events were for very large audiences in the thousands and we\u2019re always amazed to see the amount of work behind the scenes that goes into making these events a success. We know that hiccups are bound to happen when an event is going on \u2018live\u2019 but we\u2019ve seen Advocate handle themselves well in all situations.\n\u201cIt is always a pleasure to work with Advocate. They have a terrific team that provides excellent behind-the-scenes support. Advocate is one of the rare creative agencies that understands the importance of sound, lighting and video equipments.\u201d\nAdvocate knows how to impact their audience and they deliver more than just a show. This sets them apart to be one of the best and not just \u2018run of the mill\u2019.\nTheir pre-event activities are also very interactive and experiential which puts the audience in the right mood before the ballroom doors even open. This makes our job so much easier and it\u2019s no wonder their events are so successful.\nHow can creative agencies collaborate with individuals from your industry?\nWhat are some of the value-add services we can provide for each other?\nDonna: We think, we all need to work together as one unit. We all need each other. Treat each other with respect and be responsible for the roles we\u2019re taking. For example, we can help each other by brainstorming ideas and concepts that can make the events a memorable experience for the clients.\nHow would you describe your experience working with creative agencies thus far?\nDonna: Like all things in life, there\u2019s the good, the bad and the indifferent. Not all creative agencies come from the same mold. Some event companies, (we will not call them creative agencies) are \u2018fly by night\u2019 and were just in it for the short term. You never see them again a year later. They were literally out to \u2018take the money and run!\u2019 They do not care whether they pay artists and we also know of some that took client\u2019s deposit and disappeared off the planet. (Laughs).\nWhat is the worst that could happen behind the scenes?\nDonna: Sometimes, what happens behind the scenes can be very\u2026messy.\nLet me give you an example. Nerves can cause clients to become very high strung, especially if the event is very high profile or their job reputation is on the line. There was one event where the client started freaking out (over nothing). That caused the creative agency to also freak out, to the extend of packing up all their equipments and walk away!\nLuckily, we managed to calm both of the parties down and got them back in focus. The event eventually turned out to be a huge success.\nWhat would you tell other emcees on working with creative agencies? What can they expect?\nDonna: We would tell emcees to know their own job and role in the big picture. To do this well, they need to ask lots of questions (from the creative agency). Also, it is advised to do their own research on the creative agencies or clients before event meetings, to be as prepared as possible.\nSometimes, the creative agencies are not well prepared. In fact, the words \u2018blur like sotong\u2019 also comes to mind. (Laughs).

        "raw_content": "February 11, 2006: GURPS Fourth Edition Books To Be Available On e23\nStarting this month, Steve Jackson Games will be releasing PDF versions of its GURPS Fourth Edition books on e23. The PDFs will be bookmarked and searchable, and will be priced at $24.95.\nWe will be releasing the existing books in chronological order. GURPS Fantasy is available now at e23, and there will be a new PDF every two weeks through the end of March, which will see the release of GURPS Powers. Thereafter, a new GURPS Fourth Edition PDF will be released approximately three months after the print version ships to retailers. The GURPS Fourth Edition Basic Set will remain a \"print-only\" product.\nWhy release the PDFs now? Steve Jackson Games was built on good relations with our retail partners. We were concerned, as were many retailers, that PDF sales would reduce the number of print sales. After observing the market, we have concluded that, in general, the sales of a PDF version of a product do not affect the sales of the print version. Therefore, we can satisfy the growing number of PDF-using customers without harming the retailers who have supported us for so long.\nThe release of the Fourth Edition PDFs will not change our print runs. Gamers who love the smell of a new book will be able to find print copies just as easily as before, and those who prefer the advantages of digital can now be satisfied.",

Her major label years were brief but beautiful, and her indie albums also call out to roots music fans. Here's a quick look at her work...\nJann Browne \"Tell Me Why\" (Curb, 1990)\n(Produced by Steve Fishell)\nJann Browne set off on her solo career with this doozy of a disc, backed by several hotshot pickers along the lines of Albert Lee and James Burton (alumni of the Emmylou Harris Hot Band), and John Jorgenson as well. Browne racked up two Top 20 hits with this one, and although that was her official commercial peak, she's been making great music ever since. Recommended!\nJann Browne \"It Only Hurts When I Laugh\" (Curb, 1991)\nHere's a hidden gem: a remarkably rootsy commercial offering from a gal with an appealing but imperfect voice. Alt-country hillbilly filly Rosie Flores is the closest comparison I could come up with, with a fleck of that old Emmylou tone in there as well... and hey, if you like Rosie, you oughta love this album! The title track is pretty darn fun, and the rest of the album holds up as well... Apparently, Browne started out as the \"girl\" singer in the Asleep At The Wheel band in the early '80s; she had a couple of songs hit the lower rungs of the charts, but none of them were from this album. At any rate, this one's worth searching for...!\nJann Browne \"Count Me In\" (Cross Three, 1995)\nJann Browne \"Missed Me By A Mile\" (Plan B, 2001)\nJann Browne \"Buckin' Around: A Tribute To The Legendary Buck Owens\" (Plan B, 2007)\nWikipedia: Jann Browne",

        "raw_content": "Food in the News and in Books\nThe Center for Disease Control reports that since April, over 1000 people have become ill from food contaminated by salmonella. It's disheartening that in the United States something so fundamental - getting good, safe food to eat - can be so treacherous.\nThe good and bad of the food chain in the United States has been the topic of many relatively recent books, such as those by Michael Pollen. I've browsed through these books and found that, for me, this is not the best format to learn about this interesting topic. I'm much more likely to read and absorb this type of information when its published in a newspaper or The New Yorker, or discussed on a public radio program.\nReading about good food, however, can be good entertainment. I vividly recall reading Peter Mayle's excellent and entertaining A Year in Provence. Mid-way through the book, I rushed out to buy brie, crusty bread, and a cold bottle of good white wine to enjoy while I resumed the story of Mayle's efforts to cope in the wilds of the south of France.\nTwo memoirs by culinary super-stars also provide great reading. The first is My Life in France by Julia Child and Alex Prud'Homme, and the second is The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen by Jacque Pepin. The stories of how these chefs rose to success are fun to follow.\nFinally, the issue of what to eat, but from the perspective of diet and nutrition, is also addressed in Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes. Taubes' book, in tremendous detail, essentially argues that there is very little scientific support for many conventional dietary recommendations. The mass of information presented in this book is very persuasive and, while I can't agree with everything the author ultimately concludes and recommends, I have put bacon back on the breakfast table.\nDavid Brown July 10, 2008 at 3:21 PM\nThought you might get a kick out of this quote from a July 3 article published in our local paper. The headline read \"At age 106, Bigfork angler enjoys day of lake fishing.\" The quote:\nAs she fished from the dock, slowly retrieving a lure and hoping for a strike, she passed along her secret for a long life.\n\"I eat bacon every morning,\" she said. \"Crisp bacon.\"",

        "raw_content": "Report: 'The Clone Wars' Is Leaving Netflix On March 7th\nIt appears that three years to the day it debuted on Netflix, the Emmy award winning animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars will be leaving the service. Fans have noticed that the availability of The Clone Wars is listed as \"Until 2017/03/07\", meaning fans will only be able to watch their favourite episodes on the streaming service until March 7th. Lucasfilm has not commented on the story as of yet, though Lucasfilm publicist Tracy Cannobbio, who handled much of the publicity for The Clone Wars and its follow up series Star Wars Rebels, did promise on Twitter to look into it.\n@swankmotron First I'm hearing of this. Will check. Thx.\n\u2014 Tracy Cannobbio (@Tcann13) February 5, 2017\nThere is precedent for the series leaving Netflix, apparently The Clone Wars stopped being available on German Netflix on New Years Day. (I checked on the Canadian Netflix, and the series is scheduled to leave there on March 7th too).\nThe Clone Wars debuted on Neflix to much fanfare on March 7th 2014, when, in addition to the first five seasons which aired on Cartoon Network, the much anticipated sixth season (\"The Lost Missions\") premiered. \"The Lost Missions\" consisted of 13 episodes which were in production following the decision to cancel the show. Lucasfilm allowed the animation team to complete the episodes, despite shifting focus towards new projects (like Rebels).\nDespite being off the air the past three years, The Clone Wars has remained relevant to the Star Wars storytelling. Saw Gerrera, a character first introduced in Season Five of The Clone Wars, appeared in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story played by Academy Award winning actor Forest Whitaker, and countless other Clone Wars characters have popped up in Rebels as well as new novels and comics.\nGiven the impact of the series on current and future storytelling, having it on Netflix made The Clone Wars accessible to fans who would be introduced to the new characters in other mediums and wanted to learn their backstories. It has also been credited with the continued success of The Clone Wars and the interest in seeing its characters appear in other stories.\nWhen/If the series does indeed leave Netflix, it will be a bittersweet day. Netflix stepped in and gave the series a home during an uncertain period and the shows debut on the service was a day of celebration (albeit, in its own bittersweet day) and there can be no denying the role of Netflix in the continued interest in The Clone Wars. While the series will still be available for purchase on DVD/Blu-ray/Digital download, having it leave Netflix makes it less accessible for those just looking to check it out for the first time.\nIf you want to get in one last binge-watch marathon of the series before it leaves Netflix, better start now....\nClone Wars News Dominic Jones Netflix News\nJacob Levy said...\nMike Farnham said...\nThere's no \"U\" in FAVORITE\nDominic Jones said...\n@Mike Farnham, Yes there is. There's also one in \"Colour\" and \"Labour\"\nEccentric Gamer said...\n@Mike Farnham: Only if you live in America.\nBrian Fassbender said...\nAre we ever going to get Rebels on Netflix?\nKen B said...\n@Mike Farnham, get an education, mate.\nWell, it's March 8th and Clone Wars is still on Netflix. Did it get renewed or was the whole thing a hoax?\nDogsteeves said...\nI am still watching clone wars right now on Netflix and it March 8 2017 lol\nIt's March 14th and I'm still watching it\nAndrew Kelly said...\nSeptember 12 still on Netflix I live in st.louis would that have anything to do with it.",

I'm the 2018 Arizona state yo-yo champion. I got into yo-yo because it was popular at my school and basically, it was just something fun to do and when everyone else quit I just kind of kept with it and found the community. I started doing competitions in the fall of 2014 and from there I just kind of continued on with it. When I won the 2018 Arizona state yo-yo championship, it was a surreal experience for me honestly because I worked so hard to get to where I was. Just being able to win it, it was just a good feeling and my friends hyped me up for it and just made me feel really good and it's something that didn't happen much with yo-yo competitions. I don't have a good track record. I guess it just was awesome. I ended up being interviewed by USA Today and SportsCenter. Just blew up on Twitter, became viral and was able to live out a dream of mine. For me, yo-yoing is a lot more than just a toy and it's more of community and just a good place to be honestly.\nReach the reporter at cchild1@asu.edu or follow @_cchild88 on Twitter.",

Take a look at this letter from the SEC Chairman Chris Cox to Senator Jon Kyl.\nSouth Asian Voice\nIn a recent article titled \"MISSING THE OIL STORY\" Nina Burleigh who has written for The Washington Post, The Chicago Tribune, and New York magazine tried to explore the connection between the latest US military intervention in Afghanistan with unexploited energy reserves in the region. For instance, she pointed to studies that suggest that by 2050, Central Asia will account for more than 80 percent of our oil. She cited a September 10 report in the Oil and Gas Journal, which reported that Central Asia represents one of the world's last great frontiers for geological survey and analysis, \"offering opportunities for investment in the discovery, production, transportation, and refining of enormous quantities of oil and gas resources.\"\nShe also suggested that there was lots of oil beneath the turf of the US's \"politically precarious newest best friend, Pakistan\". According to an Agence France Presse report released just days before September 11, \"Massive untapped gas reserves are believed to be lying beneath Pakistan's remotest deserts, but they are being held hostage by armed tribal groups demanding a better deal from the central government.\"\nIn an earlier article, Steve Niva (Evergreen State College, Washington) had pointed to how US foreign policy in the Middle East had been driven by it's \"interests\" in backing and influencing regimes who controlled the massive oil resources of the region. That oil has been a major factor in the politics of the Middle East has been brought out by numerous analysts and scholars of the region.",

        "raw_content": "A Philophical Thought: Are Politics Adding to the Misery?\nI am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.\nStories such as mine recently entered on my blog, and that of Sheila Ramos [http://www.propublica.org/article/the-great-american foreclosure-story-the-struggle-for-justice-and-a-place-to-call-home/] - which inspired me to write my own story - as well as the untold stories of millions of other men and woman undergoing the same experience - need to understand the dynamics that have been working against us for so long. We all need to know for certain what our country's political philosophy is or should be with regard to the policies and beliefs of our elected leaders that affect our well-being, including in the area of housing and property rights. We at least deserve an explanation - understood and accepted by all - as to who and what specifically is responsible for our societal woes, including the ongoing threat to the millions of us who are in jeopardy of losing our homes. The answer isn't just one political party. It is the system by which they arrive in their positions.\nAlthough my corpus callosum is of average size and my IQ isn\u2019t extraordinarily high, I still have strong opinions that I do not hesitate to share. (This propensity for forthright bluntness doesn\u2019t increase my popularity, but that doesn\u2019t matter to me. I\u2019ve never been popular.) So I am going to take a giant leap of faith and hope someone will agree with the idea and help generate more discussion:\nI feel that someone (actually, a group of our country\u2019s greatest minds) should get together and define the type of political philosophy that governs \u2013 or should govern - our policies that so greatly affect all of us. This imaginary group would set out to define a set of principles and values as guidelines (not simply \u201cconservative\u201d or \u201cliberal\u201d beliefs in a general sense, but lay out specifics) that our leaders would use to govern their actions. This (imaginary) document or \u201ccontract with America\u201d should be viewed by everyone who cares to participate in our democracy; those who care about the direction our country is headed. Then the contract - no longer imaginary - would be used as part of the electoral process: i.e., a political candidate either agrees with it, or part of it, or not. But he or she would be able to assure the voters, in a concrete way (not abstract) that their values, articulated honestly, are in line with the majority populace or at least their individual constituencies.\nAs a voter, I don't want to have someone representing me who doesn't represent my values. Today as I try to articulate something way above my head, I can't help but question why we as a country should continue with a two-party system with ideological battles that result in obstruction and gamesmanship. I'm referring of course to our current government shutdown, debt ceiling debate, and other crises (our bailout of corporations, as well as the auto industry; the high unemployment rate, and other structural elements that have so many of us in limbo). There has to be change. Why is the minority calling the shots?\nTo start the conversation as to whether this idea has merit, let\u2019s talk a little about political philosophy. Wikipedia\u2019s definition of this particular discipline of social science is as follows:\nPolitical philosophy is the study of such topics as politics, liberty, justice, property, rights, law, and the enforcement of a legal code by authority: what they are, why (or even if) they are needed, what, if anything, makes a government legitimate, what rights and freedoms it should protect and why, what form it should take and why, what the law is, and what duties citizens owe to a legitimate government, if any, and when it may be legitimately overthrown, if ever. In a vernacular sense, the term \"political philosophy\" often refers to a general view, or specific ethic, political belief or attitude, about politics that does not necessarily belong to the technical discipline of philosophy. In short, political philosophy is the activity, as with all philosophy, whereby the conceptual apparatus behind such concepts as aforementioned are analyzed, in their history, intent, evolution and the like.[1]\nIn the mid-1950s, I wasn\u2019t even an adolescent, but I was already aware, in an unknown, inexplicable sense, that something wasn't quite right in my world I suppose it was an acute awareness of my particular place in society (at the lower, working class end). That \u201csubtle awareness\u201d became more prominent as I matured, of course, but I seldom felt empowered to do much about it. Yet, I tried to find that power. I thought it would help if I worked as had as I could as a white collar wage earner. I had other aspirations, too: I wanted to go to college. I wanted to be appreciated and respected.\nI fell for the myth that if you work hard you will succeed. That only applies to some people and under the right circumstances. By the way, I finally got that sought-after college degree \u2013 but not until I was sixty! So far it hasn\u2019t done much good.\nAs I sit here now in my \"golden years\" and as I read what I should have read and studied decades ago, I marvel how a particular sociologist \u2013 the one I am about to quote \u2013 saw the truth of what was going on and how our society was failing so many of us. He was able to see and articulate this failure so clearly, and it still applies today - especially today, October 16, 2013. Here is an excerpt of a speech that sociologist C. Wright Mills delivered in Canada in 1954. The passages have been taken from The Politics of Truth: Selected Writings of C. Wright Mills, ed. by John Summers (Oxford University Press, 2008), pp.90-91.\n\u2026between the state and the economy on the one hand, and the family and the small community on the other, we find no intermediate associations in which we feel secure and with which we feel powerful. There is little live political struggle. Instead, there is administration above, and the political vacuum below.\nThe effective units of power are now the huge corporation, the inaccessible government, the grim military establishment. These centers of power have become larger to the extent that they are effective; and to the extent that they are effective, they have become inaccessible to individuals like us, who would shape by discussion the policies of the organizations to which we belong.\nIt is because of the ineffectiveness of the smaller human associations, that the classic liberal public has waned, and is in fact being replaced by a mass society. We feel that we do not belong because we are not \u2013 not yet at least, and not entirely \u2013 mass men.\nWe are losing our sense of belonging because we think that the fabulous techniques of mass communication are not enlarging and animating face-to-face public discussion, but are helping to kill it off. These media \u2013 radio and mass magazines, television and the movies \u2013 as they now generally prevail, increasingly destroy the reasonable and leisurely human interchange of opinion. They do not often enable the listener or the viewer truly to connect his daily life with the larger realities of the world, nor do they often connect with his troubles. On the contrary, they distract and obscure his chance to understand himself or his world, by fastening his attention span upon artificial frenzies.\nWe are losing our sense of belonging because more and more we live in metropolitan areas that are not communities in any real sense of the word, but unplanned monstrosities in which as men and women we are segregated into narrowed routines and mileux. We do not meet one another as persons in the several aspects of our total life, but know one another only fractionally, as the man who fixes the car, or as that girl who serves our lunch, or as the woman who takes care of our child at school. Pre-judgment and prejudice flourish when people meet people only in this segmental manner. The humanistic reality of others does not, cannot, come through.\nIn this metropolitan society, we develop, in our defense, a blas\u00e9 manner that reaches deeper than a manner. We do not, accordingly, experience genuine clash of viewpoint. And when we do, we tend to consider it merely rude. We are sunk in our routines, we do not transcend them, even in discussion, much less by action. We do not gain a view of the structure of our community as a whole and of our role within it. Our cities are composed of narrow slots, and we, as the people in these slots, are more and more confined to our own rather narrow ranges. As we reach for each other, we do so only by stereotype. Each is trapped by his confining circle, each is split from easily identifiable groups. It is for people in such narrow mileux that the mass media can create a pseudo-world beyond, and a pseudo-world within themselves as well. 1/\n[Cited from www.philosophicalsociety.com/political philosophy.htm#polphil-def . . . Retrieved Oct. 11, 2013]\nMost of us don't feel secure and we don't feel powerful. The power remains in corporations (primarily banking, insurance, and other financial institutions), government, and the military establishment. They are getting most of their money right out of our pockets. And we feel powerless to change the system. We feel alienated.\nAs Mills said almost 50 years go, we are losing our sense of belonging \"because we think that the fabulous techniques of mass communication are not enlarging and animating face-to-face public discussion . . .\", we do not meet each other as persons [but know one another only fractionally, as the man who fixes the car, or as that girl who serves our lunch, or as the woman who takes care of our child at school.]\n(Of course back then we didn't even have the Internet. Mills must be rolling over in his grave about now.)\nIt is necessary that we achieve consensus. We the people - not those who are appointed or elected to govern, set policy, and so forth - need to collaboratively delineate the values and goals we want to see in the behavior of our leaders. This can be done, but not the way most elections are conducted (traveling all over the state or country, espousing general, nonspecific goals of bringing everyone together, having a true, working democracy, blah, blah, blah. There needs to be a written contract, something in black and white, that our elected leaders agree to abide by once they are in power. And this contract should be drafted by us - we the people.\nFifty years ago we didn\u2019t have the World Wide Web. Now we do. Let\u2019s use it for the good of everyone. Do you have the courage to go to your legislative representatives, present them with a written set of values, goals, and standards you would want them to abide by while they are in office? I don\u2019t know whether I myself have enough courage to approach each one of my legislators \u2013 state and federal. There is one in particular that I know would not even listen to me as he has refused in the past to engage in conversation with me in any form (but his staff knows me very well). A little encouragement would help. Who said it first - There's power in numbers!\n1/ By the early 1950s C. Wright Mills had given up hope that the labour movement \u2018was capable of stemming the tide of almost complete corporate capitalist domination of economic, political and cultural life\u2019 (Aronowitz 2003). He had turned more strongly to theories of mass culture and mass society, and became more pessimistic about the possibility of effecting significant political change. This judgement was strengthened by his analysis of the new middle class in White Collar (1951).\n[Cited from www.InFed.org; retrieved October 12, 2013.]",

In a family business, relationships can change, where the next generation wishes to take control or sibling rivalry affect the efficiency of a business.\nIn some cases the partners or directors can work out a way of parting company in an amicable way. However, more often than not, the parting is with difficulty or even acrimony.\nArguing the case in court for fair apportionment\nThis is where it becomes expensive, as lawyers and accountants need to be retained for arguing your case in court for the fair apportionment of the business between the parties, particularly where there is no shareholders' agreement in place, setting out the procedures for dissolving the company.\nAn alternative to going to court to settle your differences is to apply for mediation. For a start it is a lot cheaper than going to court and you have the opportunity to influence the outcome. However, you have to be prepared to compromise so that a reasonable result is achieved for both sides. If you seek judgement in court, you are in the hands of the judge as to the outcome.\nSo think carefully, before you rush to instruct lawyers to make a claim for recompense through the courts, instead of considering a much cheaper mediation procedure.

There was nothin' on TV last night so we finally took pity on this lonely film, cracked the shrink wrap on it, and sat down to watch. About an hour into it, I was wondering why we bothered, and by the end, I was wondering what possessed me to sit through this overly long, talky, not-scary-in-the-slightest made for TV adaptation of one of King's lesser recent works in its entirety. (My wife fell asleep about halfway thru, and woke up just as it ended... I told her \"don't worry, you didn't miss anything.\" Ron (\"Hellboy\") Perlman was fun to watch as the demonically-possessed smalltown sheriff but fun went right out the window any time he wasn't on screen. This was originally a TV mini-series covering four hours (the run time minus commercials is just shy of two and a half hours) but the whole thing could've easily been boiled down to one 90 minute film, IMO. I felt really burned because I could've watched TWO crappy movies last night in the time it took me to get through this thing.\nAvoid, avoid, avoid!\nDesperation is an effective, if slightly flawed, adaptation of the Stephen King novel. The largest problem is the fact that this novel is tied into The Regualtors, a Richard Bachman Book (King's pen name used to write Thinner,The Long Walk,Blaze), but the film removes all references to it. A shame since the two books add a depth to the situation and expand upon one another in a very interesting way.\nMick Garris Stephen King's The Shining,The Stand,Riding the Bullet) is one of the few directors who understands how to translate King's material from the page to the screen.\nRae W. from KILLEEN, TX\nNot a bad rendition of Mr. King's book. Of course no movie so far has proven to be as good as the book. Ron Perlman does a superior job of playing Colly Entragian! Added this one to my DVD collection of Stephen King stories.\nAnother not so great adaptation of a Stephen King novel - this one made for TV. It was fairly true to the novel but limited in the special effects. If you're a King fan you'll watch it anyway but don't expect too much.\nI still wounder what is going through Steven King's mind. Just as bizar as his other movies.\nStephen King's \"Desperation\" adapted for television...TAK!\n\"Stephen King's novel \"Desperation\" comes to life on the big screen with an all star cast that is led by Tom Skerritt. The dark desert saga is told very close within the novel itself and unlike other King TV adaptations, it seem to do a good job with portraying the mood and landscape that I discovered when reading the story a few years ago.\nDesperation follows the tale of a variety of people who are traveling on a lonely open road through the deserts of Nevada. Slowly one by one, they are pulled over by a cop, and ultimately taken in to the jail that is a one stoplight town called \"Desperation\". As each person has a different experience with the highway patrolman, they all realize the same thing: This guy is more than just a dirty cop who plants evidence to haul them in. He's strange. Aside from him enormous figure, his skin looks like it is almost decaying, and in conversation he continually seems to suddenly include the word \"TAK\" in his sentences.\nBy the time a group of people are gathered at the jail, they have already experienced death and dismay. Who is this Collie Entragian, and why has he arrested them and brought them here? What is happening to his body? Why does he keep saying \"TAK\"? It is soon discovered, thanks to a little boy with a connection with god, that Collie Entragian is definitely more than meets the eye, and that the strange happenings in the China Pit mine nearby have a lot more to do with it than they realize. King's story explores themes of survival while at the same time using a simple plot of good vs. evil to lay out the foundation for the story. Mick Garris directs and despite accused botchings of past film adaptations from novels, doesn't do a bad job here. The key for the success of Desperation is that the viewer feel like Ron Perlman (playing Collie Entragian, the large, strange cop) is believable as one of the more poignant figures of the story. I think Garris did a good job here in showing that Collie was not only simply a large individual but somewhat of a jerk AND a smart alec when it came to the opening scenes of the movie.\nTom Skerritt is excellent as Johnny Marinville, a writer who is traveling cross country on a Harley Davidson when he is suddenly stopped by Entragian. Marinville gave up on god long ago, and is not buying the kid's (Shane Haboucha as David Carver) visions he receives at the jail when talking to his dead sister. Marinville soon realizes that he in fact experienced TAK back in the Vietnam War. TAK is, for lack of a better description, an entity of evil that was released during a mine cave in the early days of Desperations western development. Now it's up to this group of people to fulfill the wishes of a higher power and take on TAK, who by now is realized as a hideous \"body snatcher\" that commands the animals, reptiles, and insects of the desert at its whim.\nThe films does and excellent job in the cinematic landscape of Desperation. The old movie theater and jail within desperation were just as I had pretty much envisioned them when reading the novel. TAK is conveyed with all the power and darkness it can be, while the humanity and perseverance that lies within a group of strangers being thrust into a bad situation is conveyed well. The scenes of the wolves, dogs, spiders, snakes and other animals were also done well as it added to the impact of TAK's powers as well as the reminder of the isolated desert locale. The dialogue is changed somewhat to give it a whisk of modern day culture, which mostly comes from Marinville making references to everything from Adam Sandler to Ann Coulter. The music, filming and acting I feel save this from being a possible disaster. Compared to past botchings of King's novels when they come to the screen, Desperation works.\nDesperation also stars Annabeth Gish and Steven Weber. Due to the film originally going to be a mini-series, it lasts 3 hours in its entirety.\"\nTak! Tak a lah!\nRoland | 06/17/2006\n\"Stephen King, as reknowned as he is, has a bad habit of recycling ideas for his books. Likewise, films based on his books, particularly the made for TV ones, are often nothing short of awful. Desperation has its moments, but is too muddy, too weird, and too saccarine sweet at times.\nThe film feels overly familiar to other King adaptations such as the Langoliers, IT and even the Stand. A group of sundry people are trapped in a Nevada ghost town and are at the mercy of a powerful earth demon or entity known as Tak, who dates back to an ancient, pre-Native American civilization. In the first half of the movie, Tak is played by the woefully underrated Ron Perlman, one of my favorite actors. Perlman chews up the scenery and seems to be enjoying himself. But the problem is that Tak can only inhabit human bodies for short amounts of time as they decompose rapidly, so Perlman isn't really seen in the second act. Lots of familiar actors and actresses show up, including Tom Skerrit as a Vietnam vet writer, Matt Frewer, Anabeth Gish and Stephen Webber. However, things get really muddled in the clash of good vs. evil. There are ENDLESS speeches and pep talks about God and christian faith, its really tiresome. However, the little boy who stands in for Danny from the Shining often finds himself asking if maybe the God he worships might be no less sadistic than Tak, so things aren't all black and white. The atmosphere of the town of Desperation is cool, but suffers from bad lighting. Probably the creepiest scene is a supernatural old film reel of how Tak was released from its ancient slumber.\nIts too bad that there wasn't much light shed on what exactly is Tak trying to accomplish. It simply awakens, posseses people, controls animals and that's about it. It would also have been cooler if they delved a bit deeper into the ancient civilization that is connected with Tak. Oh well, if you're a King fan you might eat it up.\nStephen King is awesome! Tak a Lak\nChris S. Barbay | 11/09/2006\n\"I read the book before I Purchased the Movie, which is always better, but the movie folows the book very closely from beginning to end. 2 people driving in a desert stopped by a demented cop, who plants drugs on them.They are taken to a jailhouse where others that were abducted are kept, and the story builds from there. Don't want to give away to much, but if you are an avid Stephen king fan, you will not be disapointed.\"\nMovie Worked For Everybody But The Audience\nDavid Smith | Northern California | 09/26/2006\n\"So I thought I only saw pieces of the ABC presentation of Desperation. On TV I thought I missed the chapter about the first family, David's family, and how they came to be in the town jail. It turns out I didn't miss anything, that's the way it was filmed. When I heard the film was available on DVD and \"R\" rated, too, I vowed to rent it and see the movie as it was designed to be seen. Curses, gore, adult scares and, perhaps a booby! One wouldn't expect anything but the most watered down presentation on ABC but the \"R\" rated version, oh boy!\nThe DVD, rated \"R\", was EXACTLY the same presentation word for word and scene for scene with the only difference being the exclusion of commercials. I'm going to say, and prove me wrong, that the \"R\" rating was slapped on the DVD to intice people to rent it to see the original adult version. What a sneaky rip-off. How can they do that?\nOverall, the movie was not great. The ending was completely tacked on and I got a little tired of the sermonizing. The performances were OK, with the exception of Ron Perlman's performance. He was outstanding.\nI know Amazon sells this DVD but they also sell the book and the book is much more satisfying. It's hard to believe the same guy that wrote the movie also wrote the book. I'm sure everybody made lots of money on this project but I'd like my money back.\"\nRoland | Idaho | 11/25/2007\n\"This is a bad movie, and no where near the book, since it leaves out the majority of what the book was based on, the characters and their stories. Also, alot is abridged overall, which leaves it feeling to rushed and tenuous throughout. It is like a long Twilight Zone episode more than a big movie or film. One thing for those who are not religious, you may be turned off by the constant \"God\" theme that runs throughout the film. Even for religious people, you may find it annoying - it feels to preachy to me. TOTALY SUCKED!!!!!!\"",

        "raw_content": "This belongs to my Father... so why would I be afraid?\nThe past two weeks all of my Bible studies have seemed to be of a piece -- which, I know, should not surprise me at all. And I'm not surprised, exactly, but it's beautiful, and timely.\nIn Exodus with BCCC and HopePres, we've discussed/argued/wrestled with the idea of God's sovereignty. How can you not, looking at the exodus and seeing His might -- and wondering about why He left them in slavery for 400 years? It's all unfathomable to us when we try to answer the why questions... but it's taught so clearly. We've talked about Job, too, about looking to Who, not why.\nThen at CBS, we've been studying 1 John, where he hammers away (over and over and over...) at the dangerous lie of gnosticism, the insidious creeping of the Platonic notion that the spiritual is pure and the material is tainted, evil.\nLast night, with my little group from HopePres, we sat around in Jake's living room, discussing creation, God's sovereignty and goodness, the eschaton, how gnosticism still rears its head in the popular escapist culture of Left Behind.\nIt's amazing, elegant, how the beginning plays the whole way through to the end. How what we believe about the creation (Did God really make it? Was it really good? Is it still good?) informs how we live now, what we look forward to in the end times.\nThere were three things that our conversation last night made me think about.\nThe first is Paul's words to the Athenians, telling them that the unknown God they were worshipping is the Creator and Lord of everything. That He doesn't need anything from them -- but rather He has ordained all of history, \"allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place,\" creating humans in His image so that \"they might feel their way toward Him and find Him.\"\nThose words in turn always remind me of a quote from the movie adaptation of City of Joy.\nMaybe the world is meant to break your heart.\nAnd doesn't it, though? Both with the grievous sorrows that our hearts can't stand up to and the bright joys that we can't bear?\nOver all these thoughts, over all of the news stories of ebola and WMDs, of death and devastation, the words of the hymn This is My Father's World echo in my heart.

The Shadow knows.\" He was already a radio veteran by the time he worked on \"The Shadow\" in the mid-1940s, switching regularly between that medium and movies, but fans of Poverty Row B movies will also remember him from his starring roles in the cheapie Monogram pictures \"King of the Zombies\" and \"Bowery at Midnight,\" the latter co-starring Bela Lugosi and Tom Neal. When not acting in B movies, he landed smaller supporting roles in major studio productions like the war drama \"Guadalcanal Diary\" and the gangster picture \"White Heat.\" In 1950, he starred in one of the first real Hollywood science fiction movies, \"Destination Moon,\" co-scripted by novelist Robert A. Heinlein.\" The movie, which at the time featured groundbreaking special effects in an effort to show what a moon landing would actually be like, won an Academy Award for visual effects and remains a historic milestone for the genre.

He drifted into acting, appearing on Broadway in The Day Before Spring, and in film in a number of movie serials for Universal and Republic under his birth name. In a radio contest sponsored by Jesse L. Lasky, he won the top prize, an RKO contract in the name of \"John Archer.\" His screen credits include Hello, Frisco, Hello, Guadalcanal Diary, White Heat, Destination Moon, Rock Around the Clock, Ten Thousand Bedrooms, and Blue Hawaii.

        "raw_content": "Wednesday's bond market has opened in negative territory despite the release of weaker than expected economic data. The stock markets are showing small gains with the Dow up 21 points and the Nasdaq up 9 points. The bond market is currently down 6/32, which will likely push this morning's mortgage rates higher by approximately .125 - .250 of a discount point.\nBoth of today's factual economic reports gave us weaker than expected results. The first was January's Housing Starts that tracks starts of new home construction. It revealed a decline of almost 17% in starts, bringing the total down to a record low. This gives us another indication that the housing market has not bottomed-out and that we could see further weakness in near future. This is considered good news for bonds because weak housing helps support a theory of a weakening economy.\nJanuary's Industrial Production data was also posted this morning, showing a 1.8% drop in manufacturing output. This was a larger decline than the 1.4% that was expected and along with a downward revision to December's output, indicates that the manufacturing sector is still slowing. This is another favorable indicator for bonds and mortgage rates.\nThe minutes from the last FOMC meeting will be released later today. Traders will be looking for any indication of the Fed's next move regarding monetary policy. They will be released at 2:00 PM ET, therefore, any reaction will come during afternoon trading. However, with little likelihood of the Fed making a change to key short-term rates anytime soon, these minutes will likely not heavily influence trading or lead to a change in mortgage rates during afternoon trading.\nThe Labor Department will post their Producer Price Index (PPI) for January early tomorrow morning. It measures inflationary pressures at the producer level of the economy. There are two portions of the report that analysts watch- the overal l reading and the core data reading. The core data is more important to market participants because it excludes more volatile food and energy prices. It is expected to show an increase of 0.2% in the overall reading and a 0.1% rise in the core data. Good news for bonds would be a decline in both readings, particularly the core data.\nAlso tomorrow morning will be the release of the Leading Economic Indicators (LEI) for January. This Conference Board report attempts to predict economic activity over the next three to six months. It is expected to show no change, meaning that economic activity may be flat in the near future. A decline would be good news for the bond market and mortgage rates.\nIf I were considering financing/refinancing a home, I would.... Lock if my closing was taking place within 7 days... Float if my closing was taking place between 8 and 20 days... Float if my closing was taking place between 21 and 60 days... Float if my closing was t aking place over 60 days from now... This is only my opinion of what I would do if I were financing a home. It is only an opinion and cannot be guaranteed to be in the best interest of all/any other borrowers.",

        "title": "Linux at a Crossroads in the Enterprise",
        "raw_content": "Linux at a Crossroads in the Enterprise\nAsk someone familiar with computers to suggest where the Microsoft Windows operating system will be in one year and, more than likely, you will hear about Vista, the newest iteration, or about enhancements to XP, the current version. Ask someone familiar with the Linux operating system to answer that same question and it's likely you will be asked which OS you mean.\nLinux, an open-source OS kernel developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991, currently claims 15 or more popular variations or distributions, according to Linuxiso.org, a site that offers Linux distributions for downloading.\nWhile Windows has several versions used by millions of enterprises and consumers, these software packages are not the same thing as Linux distributions. For instance, Windows XP, Windows XP Professional, and Windows XP Media Center all share the same interface and are controlled by one developer. Not so with Linux.\nThis lack of uniformity complicates any forecast of where Linux is headed. But where some experts see uncertainty, others point to a growing acceptance of Linux for server applications and enterprise support.\n\"Linux has been limited to the edge of the network for tasks like Web servers,\" said Simon Yates, principal analyst at Forrester Research. \"But now we are seeing it gain stature and become part of the server network.\"\nAccording to a just-released report from research firm IDC, Linux servers generated $1.6 billion in revenue for the last quarter of 2005, the fourteenth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth, with year-over-year revenue growth of 20.8 percent. For the full year, Linux server revenue was $5.7 billion, rising to third place behind Windows and Unix.\nYates said that the newest Linux kernel -- the latest stable distribution of which is version 2.6.15.4, according to the Linux Kernel Archives (www.kernel.org) -- is a good operating system for mission-critical tasks throughout an enterprise. He also said that many of the lingering corporate fears about Linux are fading.\nSome aficionados say the latest Novell Linux distribution could jump-start a surge in popularity for Linux among businesses. \"Linux will start to become more popular in the corporate world because of the latest Novell Linux distribution,\" said Edward Corrado, leader of the Princeton, New Jersey, Linux User Group. \"Novell has name recognition and is much more durable and stable than the other distributions.\"\nOne of the major misconceptions about Linux, according to Corrado, is the notion that it is more difficult to set up and learn than Microsoft Windows. Nothing could be further from the truth, he said.\n\"Linux in the workplace is no more difficult to learn than switching skills from an Apple computer to a Windows machine,\" he said. \"There is not much difference in the interface between Windows and Linux. For a new user, Linux is just as easy, if not easier.\"\nA close cousin to Unix, which for years has been a strong choice for running servers, Linux has the look and feel of Microsoft Windows without the higher licensing costs and overhead caused by design vulnerabilities, at least according advocates of the operating system.\nCorporate interest in Linux is growing beyond server functions, Yates said, citing surveys that Forrester conducts with hundreds of major companies.\nOne recent survey reported that 88 percent of companies in the U.S. are using Microsoft Windows, while 22 percent are running Linux applications for some tasks. But Yates noted that a significant number of respondents, 68 percent, said they would consider fitting Linux into their operations.\nThis year also could see a push for Linux in corporate work rooms. Major application upgrades will take place this year, giving Linux a good growth potential for companies looking for alternatives to Windows. For instance, 59 percent of U.S. companies, out of 860 surveyed by Forrester, will schedule server- and network-equipment upgrades this year. Forty-nine percent of European companies surveyed will face upgrades. And about half of the firms Forrester surveyed in the Asia-Pacific region are planning to upgrade equipment this year.\n\"This will open the door for Linux-based applications,\" said Yates. \"The larger server systems can now run Linux.\"\nInfrastructure consolidation is not the only force that could propel Linux's popularity. Many companies will have to replace legacy systems this year. According to Yates, about 15 percent of large enterprises are planning to replace their older PCs.\n\"These are all good places for Linux to grow,\" he said. \"Companies are cutting back on proprietary flavors of Unix systems that are tied to manufacturer-specific architectures, like Hewlett-Packard.\"\nDesktop Disappointment?\nOne the biggest stumbling blocks to the adoption of Linux is the lack of software specifically designed to run on the operating system, Corrado said. Until software developers port over popular business applications or develop Linux-specific products, greater user support for Linux will be hindered, he said.\n\"Certain applications are too big to write quickly,\" said Corrado. \"In other cases, businesses will not readily switch to another application to run on Linux if they are happy with the current software's performance.\"\nPerforming typical business-oriented tasks in Linux would pose a major problem for corporations. That problem is twofold, according to Corrado.\nFirst, the software developers would need an incentive to develop software products for a crossover market. Second, even if and when key applications became available on Linux, many business users would not switch operating systems if their current versions were not ported over to run on Linux directly.\n\"The chances for Linux to become a desktop operating-system replacement are very small,\" Yates said. \"Users have no reason to leave Windows, either in the office or the home.\"\nTwice a year, Forrester analysts assess enterprise views on computing in the workplace, conducting a survey of 8,000 firms to spot trends. So far, the results have shown that no more than 0.2 percent of all companies use Linux on their desktop computers.\nAnd where Linux is in use, Forrester has found, the migration is justified by one of two reasons. Either the company's executives are leveraging the lowest equipment cost possible or the company is fostering a hi-tech geek mentality.\nYates said that when Microsoft releases Vista later this year, businesses will have the first opportunity in a long time to consider an operating system alternative. Some companies might use the prospect of a major Windows upgrade as a chance to change their OS.\n\"The release of Vista will be a fork in the road,\" Yates said.\nOf course, a successful push from Windows to Linux would need a tremendous amount of support from the Linux community, similar to the buzz that the Mozilla.org supporters were able to generate for Firefox as an alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer. The Linux empire would have to generate a full-court press to entice business users and, ultimately, consumers to participate in a new game.\nWhile there is no compelling urgency to migrate from Windows to Linux to run desktops just yet, Corrado said, the computing landscape will be different in five years. By then, he said, a Linux user base will develop within corporations already using Linux servers. When people start using Linux at work, they also will use it at home for convenience and consistency, he said.\n\"People who use Novell on Linux really like it. We are starting to see acceptance of this combination in corporate circles,\" Corrado said. \"Its acceptance will be slow in the next year. But in five years, there will be a much stronger user base of Linux on the desktop.\"\nCorrado is confident that, regardless of Linux's prospects in the desktop environment, Linux will continue to displace Windows as a server operating system over the next few years.\n\"Linux will get a greater share of the corporate user base and more government agencies and schools,\" he said. \"We are already starting to see migration to Linux on college campuses.\"\nLooking to the future, it might be only a matter of time before more and more converts give Linux stellar marks.\nNext ....: Web Services, SOA, Open Source Converge",

        "title": "Will They Return? Insights on Attracting Higher Education Diaspora Faculty \u2013 TechSangam",
        "raw_content": "[Editor\u2019s Note: Earlier this year, academic collaborators from Rutgers University, Penn State University and Tata Institute of Social Sciences published an insightful study that quantified the severe gap in higher education faculty in India and, after surveying nearly 1,000 Indians who are either pursuing or have completed graduate study in the U.S, came up with results that are surprising and encouraging for Indian universities. The key findings from that study are presented as a two-part series. In this (Part 1) post, we\u2019ll be looking at key trends around higher education in India. Kudos to the study authors (TISS\u2019s Venkatesh Kumar, Penn State\u2019s David Finegold, and Rutgers\u2019 Ann-Laure Winkler) for a high quality research study.]\nIndia has more than 20,000 colleges, with almost 10,000 being setup in current decade\nSteady enrollment increase in higher education system over the past two decades\nPerhaps the biggest constraint on being able to meet these ambitious growth targets while improving, rather than diminishing, quality is the availability of a sufficient supply of well-qualified faculty members with advanced degrees. India already has one of the worst student-to-faculty ratios of any nation: at 26:1, it is roughly twice the ratio of China.\nIndia\u2019s student-teacher ratio is twice that of USA, China & Brazil\nFaculty growth (CAGR 2.28%) trailed student growth (CAGR 6.3%)\nWhopping percentage of faculty positions in higher education not filled\nIn 2003, engineering institutions had a shortage of 33,574 Ph.Ds and 42,831 M.Techs\nIndia is very far from developing a sufficient supply of PhDs or Masters graduates interested in becoming academics who could educate the growing number of students the government is seeking. The number of PhD students has failed to keep pace with the growth in overall student numbers \u2013 PhD students accounted for 0.7% of all students in 1985, falling to 0.5% by 2000 and then rebounding to 0.64% by 2005. If this ratio were maintained, that would suggest that roughly 100,000 of the 13.6 million students in India in 2010 were in PhD programs. If the average student takes three years to complete their studies, there is no attrition, and all of these doctoral students chose to pursue academic careers (all assumptions that are likely far too optimistic), this would suggest there are roughly 33,000 PhD graduates ready to enter faculty positions. At this rate of PhD production, it would take 30 years to meet the projected need for faculty growth, by which time many of the existing faculty will have retired or left the system.\nIndia needs to recruit at least one million new faculty members for its college and universities if it is to meet the government\u2019s ambitious target to offer a higher education (HE) place to 20% of all young people by 2020. The number of PhDs being produced by the current Indian HE system falls far short of meeting this need. The most promising way to fill this gap is to recruit back many of the over 100,000 Indians who are studying in the US each year to obtain a graduate degree and the many others who are studying in other nations or who have completed their degrees and begun academic careers abroad. \u00c2 Stay tuned for Part 2 where we present results from a survey of approximately 1,000 of these potential future faculty members to explore their willingness to return to India and the key factors affecting their decisions. [Update: here is Part 2.]\nann-laure winklercollegedavid finegolddiasporaengineering collegesfacultyhigher educationindiaMTechpenn state universityPhDstudent teacher ratiotata institute of social sciencesTISSuniversityvenkatesh kumar\nUmanchanda\nThe reason many of these positions are not filled because many of them are reserved for various groups (not that I am against the reservation system). Second, when these Faculty positions are advertised, there is a clear seniority ranking calculated in terms of number of years taught at a government university, which means those who have teaching experience at various private institutions in India do not qualify.

        "title": "Practical stochastic modelling! (Part 2) | The Actuary, the official magazine of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries",
        "raw_content": "Practical stochastic modelling! (Part 2)\nIn our article in the June issue of The Actuary we identified the main stages in developing a stochastic model and covered the first three of these. Just to recap, the stages were:\n1 Scope, timetable, and team\n2 Systems, data, and support\n3 Specification and decision rules\n4 Stochastic assumptions\n5 Adapting to unexpected problems\n6 Testing and reasonableness\n7 Interpretation, explanation, and reporting\nIn this article we look at stages 4 to 7 and draw some conclusions.\nStochastic assumptions\nIt is the scenario generator that will transform the dynamic corporate model into a stochastic model. The model is likely to be used to produce some form of ruin probability or the fair value of liabilities (or both). For either use, an economic scenario generator (ESG) is required.\nFor ruin probability calculations, a model that accurately reflects extreme market events and the correlations between asset classes in those scenarios is necessary. The expected rate of return, volatility of returns, and correlation between asset classes will typically be based on past experience and judgement.\nFor fair value calculations, market-consistent models are important, and have the advantage that less significance is attached to the extreme scenarios (which have a low probability weight applied). One simple way to achieve this is by using the types of model used by banks. For a fair value model, the expected rate of return on each asset class does not affect the results, because as the expected rate of return increases, so too does the discounting effect of the deflators.\nVolatilities should be based on the volatilities of derivative instruments as observed in the market. The correlations between asset classes cannot be directly observed from the market, because instruments that rely on these are not publicly traded. Past experience and judgement will be needed instead.\nWhile certain ESGs may support both fair value and ruin probability calculations, most are likely to improve over time from a less powerful starting point. Your model should be designed with sufficient flexibility to accommodate changes to existing and new ESGs. This flexibility would include being able to support both risk-neutral valuation and state price deflator methods.\nAside from the ESG, it may be appropriate to make allowance for non-financial assumptions and their interaction with projected economic circumstances. Incorporating the stochastic nature of the assumptions into the model should be relatively straightforward, and will be particularly relevant for persistency assumptions where some form of financial guarantee exists. Deriving credible statistics on policyholder behaviour is likely to be the most significant problem.\nAdapting to unexpected problems\nThe successful management of unexpected problems will be critical to the success of the project. It is likely that you will need to revise your plans in order to achieve the goals, and a degree of pragmatism is required. \u2018Workarounds\u2019 can be effective, and are sometimes more appropriate than the originally intended solution. Having regular access to experienced individuals along with a good project manager can significantly improve progress.\nDelivering a 95% solution on time and within budget with known well-documented weaknesses is likely to be preferable to significantly overrunning and overspending on a 100% solution. You can always address known problems in the next phase of development.\nTesting and reasonableness\n\u2018How do I know it\u2019s right?\u2019 will be the most frequently asked question once your model is producing output. Testing should be structured to answer this question. There are several techniques available for the testing and audit of a dynamic corporate model and these can be structured to meet your needs. Formulating a formal testing plan before the testing starts will ensure that the tests cover the required areas, and that overlap is minimised. Setting the sign-off criteria in advance can be useful, but such criteria need to be treated with an element of practicality.\nTesting is bound to be an iterative process, so it is vital all test results are stored and documented, so they can be re-examined when later changes are made. If not, you will find yourself repeatedly going over the same areas.\nAlthough this article cannot hope to cover all the testing techniques available, at a high level we can say that a \u2018bottom-up\u2019 approach is likely to be used. Individual asset classes and liability products are tested (normally against any established internal systems using an appropriate deterministic basis), and then \u2018corporate-level\u2019 testing is carried out. For most insurers, the corporate-level testing will be the most challenging, and will include testing for \u2018internal leakage\u2019 and sensible decision outcomes over a wide range of projected scenarios. Investment, bonuses, and new business mix are typically the key areas to be considered.\nSeparate from the model testing, you will also need to assess the appropriateness of any ESG assumed. Standard market-consistent tests, if appropriate, can be extended to validate the effect of smoothing on guarantees on any with-profits business. For some approaches, elapsed time will be a critical factor in this stage of testing, owing to the number of simulations likely to be required.\nOverall, the test plan would be expected to include the following tasks:\n\u2013 Test asset and liability products for individual model points against deterministic assumptions.\n\u2013 Test asset and liability products for all data against deterministic assumptions.\n\u2013 Test ESG calibration.\n\u2013 Test asset and liability products against stochastic assumptions.\n\u2013 Test the fit of model points to all data against deterministic assumptions.\n\u2013 Test the corporate model against deterministic assumptions, varying scenarios (sometimes to extremes) to test the decision rules.\n\u2013 Test the corporate model against stochastic assumptions.\n\u2013 Test the fit of subsets of model points to subsets of all data against stochastic assumptions.\nThe testing structure can be designed to cover many of these steps in parallel, dramatically reducing the time required for the testing phase.\nInterpreting, explaining, and reporting\nFor many actuaries, interpreting the results of stochastic models will be a new experience. There is obviously an overlap with the testing phase, as a lot of familiarity with the model will have been gained during testing. Interpreting the model will be much easier if the guarantees within products and the decision rules are broken down into their components, and the effect of each is valued step by step. Working this way, and interrogating the output of the economic model, makes it easier to build up a picture of what is happening and to assess the reasonableness of the results.\nExplaining the results of the model to senior management, especially non-actuaries, will be difficult. Stochastic models are complex, but if the investment in developing them is to be worthwhile, and directors are to fulfil their increasingly demanding obligations, senior management must understand the results. In much the same way as your own knowledge will have been built from the bottom up, your explanations should take the same approach. In particular, the credibility of and sensitivity to the chosen economic model is likely to require considerable justification and explanation.\nFor most standard modelling packages there will be almost no limit to the amount and format of information available. The problem is deciding what you really want to see, understanding how to access it, and choosing the format to present it in. This can also affect how much information is stored from each run, which will affect run times and disc capacity requirements. This can be daunting to internal users, who may still be new to the system.\nIf you have access to experienced system users, or the system provider, the standard outputs should be relatively easy to produce. Figure 1 provides an example of standard output.\nMore company-specific statistics are likely to be developed over time, perhaps with some initial investment from experienced users. A popular solution is to start with relatively simple statistics, which can be developed and extended over time as management learns to interpret and to use the information. As with the projection model, the format and level of detail of your output are likely to be continually refined, so reducing the need for the full solution to be provided straight away.\nDon\u2019t reinvent wheels\nBuilding these systems is a major investment. It could take a couple of years to develop the required capabilities, produce understandable answers, and ensure that the systems are reliable and auditable. While each company will be different, most of the problems are likely to have already been encountered and resolved by someone elsewhere. Find this expertise from experience within your organisation, contacts in other offices, consultants, or auditors. Be as pragmatic as you can.",

Why are these seemingly long passages of chanted dialogue, which are in the rhythm of speech, accompanied by a harpsichord? Later operas in the Romantic period, and beyond, don\u2019t use it. What exactly is going on?\nThe practice goes back to opera\u2019s origins. A group of composers in the late 16th century were trying to recreate what they thought was the performance practice of Greek plays. The texts of these plays exist and we know that they were sung in some manner, but there is no record of what kind of music was used. Maybe they were just proclaimed in a quasi-sung manner or maybe they were actually sung with some kind of simple accompaniment.\nThese early composers, such as Jacopo Peri, wrote what would have to be called a proto-opera. They set all of the dialogue in this chanted manner and interspersed it with simple songs. The practice came forward to the 17th century in the operas of Claudio Monteverdi. Mozart used it extensively as did composers in the beginning of the Romantic era, including Gaetano Donizetti. But the practice eventually died out in favor of through-composed operas.\nAll of this tedious background serves as an introduction to David Hanlon, who will accompany all of the recitatives in the final production of TDO\u2019s season, Don Giovanni. Hanlon is a highly respected composer, conductor and pianist who brings all of these varied backgrounds to the task.\nWe chatted with him about his orchestral role on the harpsichord in the opera.\nTheaterJones: How do you approach accompanying all of this sung dialogue? It is not written out. You only have the vocal line and a bass line with some indications of the harmony to work from [called a figured bass].\nDavid Hanlon: While I do plan out what I am going to do, most of what I play is improvised at the time. I never play it the same way twice, even though there are similarities.\nYou are playing on a harpsichord, which is an instrument that can\u2019t play dynamics. How do you work around that limitation?\nI am always looking for every trick I can come up with to match the meaning of the words rather than be monochromatic and not just a helpful harmony tool.\nThe biggest thing is always coming up with a lot of variety and color in your playing. I am constantly challenging my imagination. In a way, it is like movie underscoring. You have to support the singers and be aware of what they are doing on the stage. Occasionally, the singers will do something different, changing an inflection or accent for example. I have to be flexible enough to change instantly to go with what they are doing. This is really the biggest challenge but the spontaneity required is also the greatest delight. I want to keep it fresh for the performers.\nYou are also the pianist for rehearsals. What instrument do you use?\nFor rehearsals, I bounce back and forth between piano playing a reduction of the orchestral score, and harpsichord for the recitatives. It is important that the singers get used to the sound, which is very different from the piano. It is wonderful that we have the a harpsichord for rehearsals.\nWho owns the harpsichord that will be used for the performances?\nThe Dallas Symphony owns it and it is a beautiful instrument. It produces a lot of sound and we are experimenting with the best location to place it. We are trying to use it acoustically, without amplification.\nDoes the harpsichord require a special technique?\nIt does because it doesn\u2019t have the sustaining pedal that you find on a piano. But, I consider myself to be a keyboardist and I play whatever is in front of me. You have to find different ways of doing things to get the ideal effect, but you can bring these learned techniques from each instrument and apply them to the next one.\nThe harpsichord is hard to tune and to keep in tune. How are you dealing with this for Don Giovanni?\nThe instrument is tuned completely before each performance and it gets a check up at intermission. But it is very tricky to keep it perfectly in tune. But you never know what might happen in a performance. But, God forbid, if anything goes wrong, like one of the strings coming loose, I can work around it since it is all improvised anyway.\nDon Giovanni~~~Dallas Opera~~~/images/large/l_870111210338.jpg",

We would have been far ahead of where we are today. It\u2019s just that for a long time, we have suppressed the truth.\n\u201cBut the truth is that I have decided to offer myself. If it will require me to pay the supreme sacrifice for saying the truth, I\u2019m ready to do it because the time has come that we must stop promoting sycophancy and mediocrity.\n\u201cWe must promote the truth. We must respect the constitution and the rule of law. The constitution and the law of our land is the only thing that can guide us to greater height.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the only thing that can lead us to where we want to be. It\u2019s only thing that can promote and project us to rank with other countries that are doing well.\n\u201cWas it not just yesterday we said \u2018Ghana must go?\u2019 Why is it that on West African soil today the whole world is turning their attention whether in investment or whatever? Ghana has become a reference point against Nigeria.\u201d\nThe governor noted that with his age and the positions that he had held in government, he was more concerned now with his contribution to humanity, regretting that he was being persecuted for doing the right thing for his people.\nHe added: \u201cAnd today, for the persecution that am going through, for doing what is right then, I\u2019ve become a target? For saying that \u2018look, enough is enough, stone Age laws should be repealed even if they were laws or if they were policies, we should discard them because they will not help us.\n\u201cThe truth is that I felt so sad when the Minister of Defence and followed by the IG of Police were acting the script of Miyetti Allah instead of doing their jobs that they are collecting tax papers money for every month which am also involved in.\n\u201cHow can you say that it\u2019s the Prohibition of Open Grazing and Provision of Ranching Law 2017 in Benue State that has brought those killings?\u201d\nWondering why there were killings attributed to Fulani herdsmen in other states without anti-open grazing law, Governor Ortom, explained that \u201cthis law is a necessity arising from the killings that were taking place and for us, we sought to bring a permanent solution to the perennial problem of herdsmen and farmers clashes.\u201d\nHe argued that the lack of action against the perpetrators of the killings was deliberate as the promoters of the violence were known to law enforcement agencies.\nThe governor however applauded the media for highlighting the plight of Benue people in the hands of the marauding herdsmen and called for a change of heart from security agencies to bring the problem to a complete stop.\nOrtom further said: \u201cSo, it\u2019s not about the law. It is deliberate. We live in a country where people will come out in the name of Miyetti Allah and issue threats that they are coming to attack, that they will mobilize people to invade the land and take over the land. And even when you report to the authorities, no action is taken and they expect you to keep quiet.\n\u201cWhen you are a leader elected by the people and they are looking unto you for protection, what do you expect me to do? I should speak.\n\u201cAnd of course, when I speak, the medIa is able to alert the whole world and today, the whole world appreciates the magnitude of the problem that am going through.\n\u201cHow can you live in a state and you have seven IDP camps hosting more than 100,000 people and 60 percent of these people children who should be in their schools.\n\u201cThey are being denied their legitimate right, which we as leaders are supposed to give them, because of the non-performance of people who are saddled with sensitive responsibilities in this country to provide security for lives and property.\n\u201cSo, it is painful and really unfortunate and I expect those people who are responsible for enforcing the laws of our lands and ensuring security for lives and property who have demonstrated incompetence because of what is going on\u2026take for instance, the president directed the IG of Police to relocate to Benue state to ensure that these killings stop.\n\u201cThe IG came here one day and left and he is sitting in Abuja and he has chosen to send his PPRO to be insulting me on Channels Television for doing what is right and for him not doing his job.\u201d\nSOURCE: https://independent.ng/life-threats-insisting-anti-open-grazing-law-ortom/",

        "raw_content": "Languages: French and Creole (English and Spanish widely spoken)\nCurrency: Haitian gourdes\nSquare Miles: About 10,700 Approx.\nABOUT. Haiti is on the western part of Hispaniola, the second largest island in the Greater Antilles. Haiti is the third largest country in the Caribbean behind Cuba and the Dominican Republic (the latter shares a 360-kilometre (224 mi) border with Haiti). Haiti at its closest point is about 45 nautical miles (83 km; 52 mi) away from Cuba and comprises the horseshoe-shape peninsula and because of this, it has a disproportionately long coastline and is second in length (1,771 km or 1,100 mi) in the Greater Antilles. Haiti shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic, and the country is mountainous with the highest peak, Pic La Selle, at 8,770 feet.\nHaiti\u2019s regional, historical, and ethno-linguistic position is unique for several reasons. Originally inhabited by the indigenous Ta\u00edno people, the island was first discovered by Christopher Columbus during his first voyage across the Atlantic in 1492. When Columbus first landed in Haiti (western Hispaniola), he had thought he had found India or Asia. His flagship, the Santa Maria, sank after running aground on 25 December in the north coast of present-day Haiti.\nOn 12 January 2010, at 4:53pm local time, Haiti was struck by a magnitude 7.0 earthquake causing great devastation. Haiti is the world\u2019s leading producer of vetiver, a root plant used to make luxury perfumes, essential oils and fragrances, providing for half the world\u2019s supply. Half of all Haitians work in the agricultural sector. Haiti relies upon imports for nearly half its food needs. Haiti exports crops such as mangoes, cacao, coffee, papayas, mahogany nuts, spinach, and watercress.\nHaiti is among the poorest countries in the West, but it is rich in culture.The country\u2019s customs essentially are a blend of cultural beliefs that derived from the various ethnic groups that inhabited the island of Hispaniola. Haitian culture has a unique cultural identity consisting of a large blend of traditional customs of French and African, combined with Spanish and indigenous Ta\u00edno cultural influence.",

        "raw_content": "The CIE was commissioned by the ADA to develop and cost an alternative model for funding the cost to consumers of dental and allied health care.\nOut-of-pocket costs for dental and allied health care are often high, and can delay or prevent access to care. Existing support provided by general treatment private health insurance is limited to selected private health insurance policy holders only, and comes with gaps and exclusions in policies, as well as annual limits.\nA concept for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) for dental and allied health services was developed to offer positive incentives to save for one\u2019s care in a way that is consumer-centred, without barriers to consumer choice, and where consumers are rewarded for proactively.\nEconomic modelling estimated that relatively modest and affordable government incentives could promote HSA adoption by up to 10 per cent of the Australian population by 2030. Estimated average annual savings were forecast at $1 225 per person, based on government incentives valued at $186 per person per annum. The report highlights that there are many ways that HSAs could be structured to target consumers most in need to stimulate considered policy debate about HSAs in Australia, and their appropriate use to improve access to dental and allied health services and promote a more pro-active approach to managing one\u2019s health care.",

Weems was only a junior in high school when the band had its first practice in 2011, which makes her no-frills lyrics about shitty friends, small-town boredom and drinking too much feel especially heartfelt. \u201cA lot of times if I'm feeling frustrated about something, I'll write a song about it,\" she says. Potty Mouth reminds you that sometimes tapping into your inner adolescent is all it takes.\nAround the time the band formed, Weems was still listening to Dookie in her childhood bedroom in Amherst, and the rest of Potty Mouth was about 10 miles away, at Smith College, an all-women's liberal arts school in Northampton. At the time, Ally Einbinder was playing bass in two different bands, and Victoria Mandanas was drumming with South Carolina garage punks Chemical Peel during school breaks; Phoebe Harris, a studio art major, had yet to pick up a guitar. After bonding over records and gender politics, the three spotted Weems hanging around at local house shows and brought her on board as a vocalist. \u201cI knew Abby wanted to start a band,\" says Harris, \u201cand it was this spontaneous, kind of odd pairing, because we all didn't know each other that well.\"\nPotty Mouth\"Damage\"\nPotty Mouth, \u201cDamage\u201d\nListening to Hell Bent's smart, economical racket, it's clear the members of Potty Mouth have spent some time getting acquainted. Weems is almost into her twenties now, but she still sings the kind of candid teenage poetry that doesn't need to be analyzed. How real were you? she intones in her raw, monotone drawl on \u201cDamage,\" its jittery guitars and driving drums recalling the kind of gritty indie rock that the members of Potty Mouth aren't quite old enough to be nostalgic for. \u201cIt wasn't like, Oh yeah, we want to be a '90s revivalist band,\" Einbinder remembers. \u201cRecently, we've been listening to a lot of Jawbreaker and Hole and hearing similarities, like, Oh, right, we kind of sound like that.\" They struggle to otherwise pinpoint what they sound like collectively, but they're quick to highlight each other's personal strengths, particularly when explaining their collaborative songwriting process. \u201cPhoebe's leads almost function as a second vocal harmony,\" Einbinder says proudly of Harris' intuitive ear for guitar hooks. The riffs aren't revolutionary, but they're persistent in a way that's tough to shake off. Hell Bent may charm with its unvarnished edges, but it also projects poise, a levelheaded confidence in the face of youth's uncertainties. Look at me now/ My life's alright/ Think I might have found what I was after, Weems deadpans on \u201cThe Gap,\" the album's ramshackle opener about her decision to put off college, for now. The rest of the band have received their diplomas, but the \u201cgap year\" is still an apt metaphor for the Potty Mouth spirit in general\u2014that post-adolescent mentality of not knowing what's coming next. For now, they're content writing catchy songs and making up the rest as they go.\nPotty Mouth Issue 89 Patrick D. McDermott\nGEN F, Issue 89, Patrick D. McDermott, Potty Mouth, Rock",

        "raw_content": "Deli Girls are fed up, unstoppable, and emo as hell\nLike all the best mall punk and nu metal, this duo\u2019s noise music reminds you what it\u2019s like to feel invincible.\nBy NM Mashurov\nPhotographer Molly Matalon\nThe FADER's longstanding series GEN F profiles emerging artists to know now. This story contains graphic language related to sexual assault.\n\u201cEmo is gay,\u201d Danny Orlowski says between bites of tuna melt. I\u2019m sitting with Orlowski and Tommi Kelly of New York noise duo Deli Girls at Paphos Diner, a fluorescent spot with green seats, hot pink walls, and totally decent waffle fries. We\u2019re talking mall punk \u2014 Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, The Used, Good Charlotte.\n\u201cThe reason why I needed [emo] so badly, and maybe still do, is that it was the only thing that was \u2018punk\u2019 where it was also OK to be gay,\u201d Orlowski tells me. Growing up ambiguously queer in Queens and Long Island, they cite emo\u2019s embrace of androgyny as formative, especially at a time when mainstream media wasn\u2019t showcasing openly queer artists. \u201cI\u2019ve gotten so much shit my entire life for not giving a shit about all the classic punk bands, but all that shit is super straight and exclusionary,\u201d they say. \u201cI\u2019m not gonna pretend to like your shit at my own expense.\u201d\nNot pretending to like exclusionary shit at their own expense is sort of a Deli Girls mantra \u2014 others include \u201cfriendship is romance,\u201d \u201cdance at our shows,\u201d and \u201cJim Carrey that shit,\u201d referring to the actor\u2019s philosophy of manifesting his reality. Guided by such principles, Deli Girls has spent the last few years Jim Carrey-ing a growing fanbase, one that is drawn to the visceral energy of their live performances.\nAt shows, the crowd gathers around Orlowski as they strut and thrash around the room, displaying their rage and vulnerability with an ugly, commanding sincerity. Kelly, meanwhile, crouches in the background over drum machines and sequencers, turning vocal samples, barking dogs, and a grab-bag of other percussive noises into a feedback-scorched blend of industrial, hardcore, and pop. It feels both brand new and ecstatically familiar, as if the \u201998 Family Values Tour just crash-landed in the basement of your local punk house. Their first album, Evidence, released by Brooklyn freak nightlife label Sweat Equity last October, plays out like one of these live shows.\nThough Orlowski and Kelly both graduated from Brooklyn\u2019s Pratt Institute in 2013, they didn\u2019t start hanging out until the following year, first bonding over a bad art show. \u201cTotal seminal Deli Girls moment,\u201d remembers Kelly, \u201chating on some art.\u201d They started playing music the following year, making songs for a mixlr radio show, eventually pulling their first live set together after two dudes named Alex booked them a show at the now-defunct Coco 66 in Greenpoint. \u201cThere\u2019s never gonna be a super bad moment because we know how to respond to one another,\u201d says Orlowski. \u201cThat\u2019s the most special relationship ever.\u201d\nThe first Deli Girls collaborations were, at their core, pop songs. \u201c[Pop] goes past your personality and hits you right in the heart,\u201d Kelly explains, before starting to sing the riff of NSYNC\u2019s turn-of-the-century earworm, \u201cIt\u2019s Gonna Be Me.\u201d As an openly gay teenager in Phoenix, Arizona, voted \u201cmost likely to be famous\u201d in high school, Kelly spent his time playing video games and listening to Nine Inch Nails. (Currently he chooses not to declare his sexuality.) Now he has leveraged an interest in Max Martin song craft and a gamer\u2019s taste for Easter eggs into a giddy mastery of apocalyptic soundscapes you can dance to.\n\u201cEmo is gay.\u201d \u2014 Danny Orlowski\nOrlowski deploys the same precision in their lyrics and delivery, repeating sharp lines with a rhythmic urgency, like they\u2019re trying to physically expel the words from their body. The resulting poetry unfurls like a hyper-relatable shitlist, one that takes aim at insurmountable debt (\u201cthey put numbers in my name and I can\u2019t even fucking pay\u201d), fascist scum hiding behind rhetoric (\u201cyou say rights but you don\u2019t mean rights\u201d), and surveillance (\u201clittle man watching me / little camera recording me\u201d). But their fiercest rage is reserved for rapists and the spineless bystanders who protect them.\n\u201cI was raped by somebody,\u201d says Orlowski. \u201cAnd a bunch of socially glorified men told me that there was no evidence that it happened. And they used the word evidence. So our album is called Evidence.\u201d The title track is the album\u2019s closer, featuring a threatening Quake sample of someone drowning and Orlowski\u2019s snarls: \u201cIt\u2019s my body and I\u2019ll fucking kill you.\u201d At this point in the show the music tends to drop out, leaving all eyes on Orlowski as they pace around, cackling. \u201cI\u2019ll feed him Plan B / that he bought with his own money...and then I\u2019ll leave him for dead.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s probably the best fucking feeling ever that people are into our record,\u201d Orlowski says. \u201cIt\u2019s the biggest turn this shit into something positive thing ever, and it feels so fucking good. I\u2019m sure none of them are even aware of what it means to me. But it\u2019s so cool to see people mosh and get angry [with this as] the soundtrack.\u201d\nAt Paphos, Orlowski is wearing an oversized Ko\u042fn hoodie, which matches the Ko\u042fn tramp stamp they got the night of 45\u2019s inauguration. Tonight their neon orange hair is down, but sometimes it\u2019s liberty spiked. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a coincidence that in 2018 all the club kids look like they\u2019ve been shoplifting from Hot Topic, or that as soon as the clock rounds 3 a.m., even the most polished DJs tend to drop \u201cFreak on a Leash.\u201d The last few years have left even the most resilient of us enraged and exhausted. Sometimes it feels like the only art worth engaging with is the kind that reminds you what it\u2019s like to be hyped and invincible.\nIt sort of feels like I\u2019ve spent my entire life in fluorescent diners like this one, commiserating about assholes with social capital and the real violence of toxic scene dynamics. The Deli Girls project feels redemptive because it makes you believe that, for once, kids like these get to score an extra life. Like, for twenty unhinged minutes at a time, we get a chance to win.\nDeli Girl's Evidence is out now. Listen below:\nEvidence by Deli Girls\ndeli girls, GEN F, Punk",

        "raw_content": "Countdown to Gotham: Looking Behind, Looking Ahead\nSunday, January 04, 2015 / Izzy Stevenson / No comments\nThis is the final installment of a special five part series on Gotham. We\u2019ve recapped all ten episodes that have aired so far, and today we\u2019ll take a special look at the journey so far and speculate on what\u2019s to come. Remember to tune in to the midseason premiere of Gotham tomorrow on Fox! We would also like to remind readers that Gotham contains some content suited only for older viewers, and viewer discretion is advised. Spoiler warning for past (and possibly some future) episodes!\nGotham has only aired half a season so far, and yet quite a lot has happened in that short amount of time. We saw the murder of Thomas and Martha Wayne, as well as the beginning of a gang war. We\u2019ve been introduced to famous heroes and villains alike, some long before they were ready to take up their iconic identities, and others already well on their way to becoming the characters we\u2019ve always known. Reviews were mixed in the beginning. Opinions of the show overall are still pretty varied, but it\u2019s nevertheless risen to being the number one show on Fox.\nLike all shows, it has its strengths and weaknesses. Its main strength seems to be its fantastic supporting cast. The show\u2019s weakness, sadly, seems mostly to be a couple of the main characters.\nI\u2019m normally a huge fan of Commissioner Gordon. In fact, I usually find him more of a hero than Batman himself. Not so this time. Gotham\u2019s Jim Gordon is a good man. He definitely means well and is on the Good Side. But he is also very stony, serious, and not as compassionate as one would expect Gordon to be. What\u2019s worse, considering he\u2019s good and the GCPD is corrupt, you would expect his fellow cops to be wrong about the way they look at him. But they are actually right about him most of the time. Jim is very na\u00efve, idealistic, and it causes him to go about almost everything in the wrong way. (Arresting Mayor James and Falcone out of the blue? Come on! There\u2019s no way that was going to work!) Interestingly, I\u2019ve seen interviews hint that he will turn somewhat bad himself during his mission to erase the evil in Gotham. It\u2019ll be interesting to see what happens with him now that he\u2019s being sent to work at Arkham Asylum.\nThe other main character I found problematic was Barbara, who is not exactly an example of a great female character. Her main purpose on the show so far seems to be looking beautiful, and switching between comforting Jim and adding unnecessary drama to his life. She betrays his trust by blabbing his business to the newspapers, and then wonders why he keeps secrets from her. She works so hard to get him to open up to her again, and when he does, she decides she can\u2019t handle it and leaves. I also doubt she\u2019s the sort of representation the bisexual community was hoping for, as her past relationship with Montoya is used only to make her life more dysfunctional and eventually leads her to be unfaithful to her fianc\u00e9. What\u2019s more, her drug problem totally came out of left field, and was only mentioned once before being forgotten entirely.\nApart from them, however, I think the characterizations have been consistently good. Even Harvey Bullock took me by surprise. When we first meet him, we get the impression that he\u2019s just a lazy jerk who isn\u2019t afraid to break any law (including murder) to avoid trouble. Which\u2026 is true. But there\u2019s more to him than that. Though he starts out very hard to like, he somehow becomes very hard to hate in the end. And honestly, I don\u2019t quite understand it myself. His apparent lack of cleverness combined with his growing devotion to Jim makes him strangely endearing. Not everyone agrees with me, however. Several viewers I\u2019ve seen have complained he\u2019s too corny, and they make fun of the way his dialogue is written.\n(Source: mylittle-penguin.tumblr.com and grandecaps.tumblr.com)\nBut, to be honest, I think he\u2019s probably supposed to be cheesy. In all his scenes, there\u2019s this air of self importance he carries, coupled with a complete lack of self-awareness. It just seems to fit his character.\nI even find Captain Essen interesting, though she\u2019s not really a major character. She definitely has her own share of personal conflict. Like the others at the GCPD, Essen is a proponent of the motto \u201cGo along to get along\u201d, which includes engaging in illegal and evil activity when it suits. But we do get glimpses of the \u201creal\u201d Essen below that, and she\u2019s a woman who doesn\u2019t want it to be that way. She\u2019s a woman who, like Jim, wants to stand up for justice. But because she\u2019s also a woman with a family whose safety she cares about, she doesn\u2019t feel she has the freedom to take that stance.\nOf course, out of all the characters, Eddie is my baby. On one hand, I\u2019m really excited to see what he\u2019ll be like when he turns bad. But on the other hand, I don\u2019t want to see it at all ever because I know it will absolutely break me. It\u2019s true I\u2019ve had lots of favorite characters that did villainous things or killed people and all that. But they weren\u2019t Eddie. Eddie can\u2019t do that stuff. I mean, just look at that happy little nerd.\nSee. He doesn\u2019t have a bad bone in his body.\nAt least, as far as I can tell.\nBut there have been several scenes already where I\u2019ve expected him to do something evil, and he didn\u2019t. Scenes where he slowly looks at the camera, and you expect an evil grin to spread across his face\u2026 but it doesn\u2019t. Or the part where he picks up a knife that glitters in the lamplight, only for the scene to reveal he\u2019s performing an autopsy. It often feels like there\u2019s an invisible evil force floating outside his body that even he isn\u2019t aware of, and its waiting for just the right moment to seep into his skin and take control.\nThe behavior of his coworkers puzzles me as well. I understand that he\u2019s awkward, and his love of puzzles gets on their nerves. But they seem almost to go out of their way to dislike him. Even when he\u2019s kind to them, helpful to the case, and shows an interest in them as people. Do they sense something evil is in him and avoid him because of that? Or are they just being shallow and cruel, and their behavior is what will lead him to become evil later?\nEither way, I do often wonder what will ultimately send him over the edge. At first I thought his coworkers would just keep ignoring him until he lost it and started staging stunts to get attention. But now I\u2019ve been hearing in interviews that his character will start receiving recognition and appreciation for his accomplishments. This choice of direction confuses me a great deal, since it seems to erase all the things in his life that are pushing him toward bitterness. Why will he eventually choose to go to the dark side, then? Will it be the opposite problem? Will the recognition go to his head? Or will he end up losing all that recognition again somehow, so that his unwillingness to return to failure drives him mad? Questions, questions.\n(Source: wouldyouliketoseemymask.tumblr.com)\nI just hope that, whatever sends him over the edge, it\u2019s not rejection from Kristen Kringle. I\u2019ve been worried about that ever since I saw his failed attempts to flirt with her in episode six. Don\u2019t do this to me, Gotham writers! I hope I don\u2019t have to tell you why that direction would be an unspeakably bad idea. Men turning murderous after being friendzoned is such a terrible old trope. I don\u2019t want it used for my Eddie, of all characters. What\u2019s more, when that trope is used, the female character involved always ends up getting the most unfair treatment. Eddie\u2019s going bad should not, in any way, be labeled as Kristin\u2019s fault. Especially since there are so many other things done to Eddie that he can be rightfully angry about. I mean, even Jim is rude to him.\n(Source: saditasaxton.tumblr.com)\nJim Gordon, people.\nWhatever direction they take his story, I hope we see something happen with him soon, good or bad. They can only show so many episodes of him being snubbed by coworkers before it gets repetitive. I doubt we\u2019ll see him actually go bad this season, as the showrunners said each season will focus on one villain at a time, and this one\u2019s Penguin\u2019s. We could maayybee see something of him going bad in the finale. But I think the majority of it will be saved for his own personal season, which I\u2019m guessing will be either season two or three.\nAs sad as it will be, I am looking forward to seeing the actor show a more villainous side to his role. Cory Michael Smith is a great actor. He hasn\u2019t had too many scenes to prove it yet. But I think once the show focuses on Eddie more, he could even give Robin Lord Taylor a run for his money as best Gotham actor. (And Robin Lord Taylor has consistently been hailed as the best actor on the show so far, hands down.) I think it will be a friendly rivalry, though, as both actors appear to be good friends in real life and are dying to do a scene together. And I\u2018m dying to see one! Imagine a scene with Oswald and Eddie interacting. And both such iconic villains, too. In one interview I saw, it was even mentioned that a confrontation between Oswald and Eddie is planned in a future episode. I can\u2019t imagine what would prompt such a confrontation, but I hope we don\u2019t have to wait too long to find out. It sounds fantastic.\nI have to admit, as much as I\u2019ve always loved the Batman universe, watching Gotham is the first time I\u2019ve actually liked Bruce Wayne. I usually liked it for the other characters. I\u2019m sure many people will call me a heretic now, but Bruce is a character that has always uninterested me. He was cold, distant, wealthy, and overly dramatic about his parents\u2019 deaths (which I could never connect to before). But David Mazouz is fantastic as young Bruce. I\u2019m really looking forward to seeing more of him. And I\u2019m especially excited to see him meet the other characters he hasn\u2019t had scenes with. Such as Eddie, Oswald, Fish. People he\u2019ll one day grow to fight.\nI was skeptical about Alfred at first, since he seemed so much more gruff than I expected him to be. But I really think they did the best possible thing with his character. I like that he\u2019s so strict and yet such an enabler. I often think Bruce is really the adult in their relationship. One thing that surprised me was how they become such good friends so fast. At the start of the show, Alfred\u2019s fatherly feelings for Bruce are obvious to viewers, but Bruce is unaware of them. I thought that would turn into a multi-season arc for their relationship, but they already seem to have bonded. I wonder what the showrunners will do now to make the relationship interesting?\nCat has done nothing but impress me consistently so far. Camren Bicondova is an amazing young actress. She effortlessly portrays both a fun, gentle side, and the side of a ruthless street thief, and it flows together seamlessly. She even looks and moves quite like a Cat.\n(Source: rosamundqpike.tumblr.com)\nI\u2019m also impressed with Ivy, though we haven\u2019t seen much of her yet. What we have seen of her has been delightfully disturbing, and I hope she makes more frequent appearances on the show. From what I\u2019ve seen of the previews, it looks like we\u2019ll be seeing a good deal of both her and Cat together.\nWhile watching TV shows, most viewers, of course, root for the good guys. But it\u2019s okay to root for some of the bad guys too. Especially when there are multiple bad sides fighting to become the top bad guy. Even if you do ultimately root for the good side, you must have some opinion on which bad guy you want the good side to have to fight in the end. And there are many different Gotham baddies vying to take that place. In-fandom fighting over which one of them should win is already happening (if you haven\u2019t heard someone cry \u201cPenguins eat fish!!!\u2019 yet, you will). The main competition in fans\u2019 eyes seems to be between Oswald and Fish. These debates can get even more passionate and personal when you take into account that Oswald is a white male character, and Fish is a powerful woman of color \u2014 a rare character to see in most media.\nI personally adore both characters. I think you all know of my obsession with Oswald Cobblepot. And Fish is undeniably the queen of the fandom.\nThey are both two of the most fantastic characters on the show. However, while I understand and appreciate what an important character Fish is (and I am truly in awe of her), I can\u2019t help ultimately being Team Oswald.\nTake a look at Oswald Cobblepot. He\u2019s small, he\u2019s weak, he comes across as powerless. His motivations are to prove he can be somebody when everyone else thinks he can\u2019t. Everything he does, he does despite giant odds against him. I\u2019m not trying to excuse him at all, or claim he\u2019s a good person at heart, because he most certainly is not. But as twisted as he is, there is something oddly inspiring about him. Then take a look at Fish. She is literally like an evil queen in a fairy tale. Fish seems to have been born with a natural power and presence that demands respect and obedience from people, and it's rare for her not to get her way. She wasn\u2019t abused, mistreated, or looked down upon as far as we know. In the real world, there is a lot going against a woman of color trying to rise to power. But are things the same way in the fictional Gotham universe? It seems in her world, she has no needs and nothing to prove. Only an insatiable lust for power. And the power she already has, she lords over those weaker than her. While Oswald seems like he would be bullied, Fish would be the bully. And that makes it very difficult for me to root for her wholeheartedly. Although, once we dig deeper into her character, we may discover something that changes that.\nI also find it difficult to imagine Fish defeating Oswald, if the show decides to follow the comics at all. Fish is, as an original character, not someone that exists at all in Bruce Wayne\u2019s future world as Batman. Whereas, Oswald becomes the Penguin. And as the future Penguin, he\u2019ll have to defeat a lot of people who are above him to get to the top. Unless she\u2019s also secretly a Batman villain from the comics, and they both end up taking control of the city in different ways, Oswald defeating Fish seems inevitable.\nBut then, I haven\u2019t exactly ruled out the possibility of her secretly being a villain from the comics, whose future identity has not been revealed yet. It would make for an interesting twist. And I\u2019ve found it strange that, in the promotional material, whenever the \u201cfuture Batman nemeses\u201d are lined up, Fish is among them. I guess we\u2019ll have to keep our eye on her.\nOswald, meanwhile, seems to be captivating viewers. Most critics I\u2019ve seen have named him as the main reason for the show\u2019s success. And I\u2019ve come across several people who are not at all fond of the show, but watch it anyway solely for Oswald. Robin Lord Taylor is certainly deserving of such recognition, as he steals every scene he\u2018s in. His character is fascinating, terrifying, funny. Not to mention the fantastic amount of sass. I mean\u2026 look at him. He even eats apples sassily.\n(Source: lokineedsprozac.tumblr.com)\nAnd I didn\u2019t even know that was a thing you could do.\nOf course, I\u2019ve already talked in-depth in a previous article about how interesting I find the relationship between him and his mother, Gertrud. And I\u2019ve heard hints of a very intriguing scene coming up between the two of them. So I think we still have lots more to look forward to there. I\u2019m also very interested in his relationship with Jim Gordon. They are two very different people, and only have a few scenes together so far. Yet, they seem to have developed almost a codependent relationship, in some ways. Oswald has skills that could come in handy for Jim, and Oswald seems determined to either help Jim or bring Jim over to the \u201cdark side\u201d (although\u2026 maybe those are the same thing in his eyes?). I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if they end up needing each other to achieve their goals in the end, and often end up working together somehow.\nI\u2019m also looking forward to finding out how they\u2019ll continue to handle the Penguin\u2019s rise to power. So far he\u2019s steadily rose higher and higher. Will he continue to do so, or will it be more of a rollercoaster with ups and downs? What\u2019s more, previews seem to indicate he\u2019s not far from embracing the name \u201cPenguin\u201d, instead of fighting it.\nOf course, there\u2019s also the two Dons themselves, Falcone and Maroni. They\u2019ve pretty much been the series\u2019 center of conflict, and I think the story involving them has been handled well so far. Despite his \u201cweakening\u201d from the Wayne murder and Arkham loss, Falcone is certainly a powerful, shrewd man. Maroni is a lot less clever; but also more brutal and unpredictable.\nI look forward to seeing which (if either) of them comes out on top. I have a hard time imagining that both men will still be alive by the end of the series (or possibly even the season). I don\u2019t know if either of them dying would be canon to the comics, but this show doesn\u2019t have a history of being faithful to the comics anyway. And I feel like the story will need some big event \u2014 such as the death of a major character \u2014 to shake things up and prevent it from becoming stale. Besides, neither Fish nor Oswald can take control if these two continually dominate the city.\nThen there\u2019s the matter of Liza. She is yet another character who I would be surprised to see still alive by the end of the season. I believe she is capable of being powerful and dangerous, but I don\u2019t think she realizes this about herself. And she is far too easily manipulated. It\u2019s pretty obvious to everyone but her that Fish doesn\u2019t give a dime for her safety. And if Liza thinks Fish will just have her continue to spy on Falcone forever, she\u2019s kidding herself. Either Fish will make her try to kill Falcone, or she\u2019ll sacrifice Liza for some great purpose in her plot. Either way, it won\u2019t end well from Liza\u2018s perspective, so she\u2019d better start thinking up a gameplan.\n(Source: cnnrswalsh.tumblr.com)\nHer smartest move, I think, would be to come clean to Falcone in secret \u2014 to say that Fish tried to use her against him, but that she doesn\u2019t want to work for her; she wants to work for Falcone instead. Since Oswald also has her in his clutches, she\u2019d have to make up some lie about him also plotting against Falcone in secret. It\u2019s probably true, anyway. And it would be easy enough, since Falcone has shown he already harbors suspicions against Oswald. Falcone cares a good deal for Liza, and would probably believe what she tells him. He is also still powerful enough in this point in time to protect her from Fish\u2019s and Oswald\u2019s revenge (probably by disposing of them). Not only would this help Falcone keep his power, it would also most likely lead to Liza becoming his right-hand woman, which would make her quite powerful as well. I very much doubt this will happen, however. Such a move would surely end in the deaths of both Fish and Oswald, and they are both too important to the story to die. Liza, on the other hand, is disposable. I can\u2019t see things ending well for her.\nVictor Zsasz thoroughly impressed me as a villain, and I hope we get to see more of him.\nWe haven\u2019t seen much of Harvey Dent yet for me to have much of an opinion on him.\n(Source: jeniiferlawrence.tumblr.com)\nI\u2019ve heard they won\u2019t focus overly much on him this season, and instead wait until later seasons. This is why I think Season Two will be either his or Eddie\u2019s. (I\u2019m hoping it will be Eddie\u2019s, though, because I like him much more as a character.)\nI\u2019ve learned we will also meet two new characters this season \u2014 Leslie Thompkins and Jonathan Crane, both pretty famous figures in the Batman universe.\nWe can probably expect plenty more red herrings for the Joker this season. The showrunners have said there would be a number of them, and so far we\u2019ve only seen one. Most viewers expect these red herrings to distract from the real clues being laid down about the future Joker. Whoever the real one is, it\u2019s sure to be quite a shocking twist.\nMany theorize that Oswald will actually turn out to be the Joker, and that his being the Penguin is just a front on the writers\u2019 part. Robin Lord Taylor could totally pull off playing the Joker. But as cool a theory as it is, I kind of doubt it\u2019ll be the case. However, it wouldn\u2019t at all surprise me if the Joker turned out to be some character we never suspected. Imagine if it was Fish Mooney! I\u2019d love to see how audiences would react to a female Joker. As I mentioned earlier, I do find it odd she\u2019s always included in the lineup of \u201cfuture Batman nemeses\u201d when she\u2019s supposedly an original character. And the showrunners did say they were going to take their Joker in a very different direction than others have. I suppose it is possible. Though, if so, her character will have to change a lot before reaching that point.\nAnother person to theorize about is the Wayne murderer. In the comics, he was just a mugger named Joe Chill. But I think Gotham will be going in a different direction. It\u2019s most likely that the murderer will be a character we\u2019ll get to know before being revealed as the Wayne killer. Whether that person is someone we\u2019ve already met or not, I don\u2019t know. A common fan theory is that the killer will turn out to be Harvey Bullock. I don\u2019t know if Cat was being honest in her drawing of the killer, but to me it looked a lot like Mayor Aubrey James or Butch Gilzean. If it did turn out to be Butch, he was probably under orders from Fish Mooney as part of her plan to weaken Falcone. And that would certainly add fuel to the future fire between Bruce and the Joker, should she turn out to be the famous nemesis.\nWell, that\u2019s it for now! We\u2019re all caught up. I hope you\u2019ve enjoyed this Countdown to Gotham series. I will return as your regular Gotham Girl next Monday to recap the midseason premiere.

        "raw_content": "Morgyn's Review of Moana\nMonday, November 28, 2016 / Morgyn Ashe / No comments\nLast night, my family and I went to see Moana. We've been wanting to see it since we saw the first teaser trailer last year. Obviously, as a resident Disney addict, I go to see every Disney movie when it comes to the theater.\nThere wasn't a dull moment in the whole movie. There were times I was sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. Moana was a fearless teenager who didn't let anything stand in the way of saving the people of her island. She was resilient and even bossed around Maui (the demigod!). I appreciated the relationships in this movie, as well. Moana, although she respected her parents, wanted to be able to get out on her own and live her life (outside of her small island), despite her parents wanting her to stay where she was, safe on their island.\nThis was a typical good versus evil movie, one that I found satisfying from the very first minute to the closing credits.\nMy favorite thing by far about Disney movies is the great music that always goes with them. The score for Moana was incredible. Featuring songs from newcomer Auli'i Cravalho and even Dwayne Johnson (who knew he could sing?), the Polynesian-style music was interesting and well-done. If nothing else, I say see the movie just for the music. (My sister also says that I should mention that Lin-Manuel Miranda produced the music.)\nLike I said above, Auli'i Cravalho is a newcomer to film. She was so good at the part of Moana that I was thoroughly impressed that she'd never done any voice-over acting before.\nDwayne Johnson voiced Maui, the demigod. His character reminded me a lot of him, and he never failed to make me laugh.\nI would give Moana a 10/10 rating! The plot, the voice cast, and the music made this animated film a special treat for the whole family.\nHave you seen Moana? If so, what was your favorite part?\nIf not, when are you planning to see it?\nDisney, Disney Movies, Moana, Morgyn Ashe, movie review, reviews",

        "raw_content": "Home Entertainment The Walking Dead: Andrew Lincoln May Return as a Director\nThe Walking Dead: Andrew Lincoln May Return as a Director\nAfter exiting The Walking Dead, Andrew Lincoln plans to return to the series as a director. While his character, Rick Grimes, may be gone after just six episodes in season 9, Andrew Lincoln\u2019s ties to the zombie drama will remain, but in a different way.\nShockwaves were sent through the fan community when it was first reported that Lincoln would be departing the series in season 9. Lincoln\u2019s departure will come less than a less full season after the death of Rick\u2019s son, Carl (Chandler Riggs). The loss of Carl was the show\u2019s most shocking death to date. However, losing Rick, the series\u2019 lead, will be an even a greater blow to the fans. It\u2019s worth noting though that Rick may not leave the show as tragically as Carl, since there is a chance that Rick won\u2019t die in his final episodes.\nRelated: The Walking Dead Season 9 Premiere Review: A New Era Begins Now\nLincoln revealed to EW that the actor isn\u2019t done with The Walking Dead. The actor will return to the set during season 9 to shadow a director so that he\u2019ll be able to helm his own episode in season 10. Lincoln says he\u2019s too \u201cinvested\u201d in the show to walk away completely:\nI can\u2019t be that far away because I can\u2019t bear it. That\u2019s how much I am invested in the show and the continuation of the story.\n\\ Lincoln would be the third actor in The Walking Dead universe to direct an episode. Colman Domingo, who is a series regular on Fear the Walking Dead, directed a recent episode of Fear the Walking Dead\u2018s fourth season, and will direct another episode during season 5. Michael Cudlitz, who played Abraham from season 4 to season 7 of The Walking Dead, will be back to direct the seventh episode of season 9. Before sitting in the director\u2019s chair, both actors learned the ropes by shadowing directors, which is what Lincoln hopes to do as well.\nSince it was officially confirmed that Lincoln is leaving the series, the actor has repeatedly expressed his love for working on the show. Lincoln says the decision to leave was made because he wanted to spend more time with his family, who lives in England. Every season, Lincoln usually spends half a year filming in Georgia. With this mind, it makes sense why Lincoln would rather direct than continue starring in the series. As a director, Lincoln would still be associated with the series while also spending a much shorter amount of time on set.\nMore: Walking Dead Expansion Plan Includes Movies, More TV Shows\nSeason 9 of The Walking Dead premieres October 7th on AMC.\nRick & Morty Fan Creates Anime-Style Opening Credits Sequence\nSource : https://screenrant.com/walking-dead-andrew-lincoln-director-season-10/\nPrevious articleMeghan Markle Wore a Super-Straight Hairstyle for the First Time as a Duchess\nNext articleBergen\u2019s Liv Morgan potentially injured by Brie Bella in Monday Night Raw match",

And that pattern may not include thinking of yourself as \u201can activist\u201d or doing what you might consider \u201cactivist-y things.\u201d But the one day something happens. Your local hospital announces it will close as a result of government cuts, leaving your community high and dry in times of crisis. Breed-specific legislation threatens to tear your family and pets apart. An elephant at a zoo is photographed slowly starving to death. And then you just have to act.\nHere at Care2, we do believe the world is fundamentally good and full of good people. But we also believe that there are times when each of us has to step up in order to keep the train of good things going. That\u2019s where Care2 petitions come into play. We\u2019re here to help you stand for good, and once you\u2019re ready to take that stand, we\u2019ll have your back.\nAnd one of the ways we have your back is by providing you with free resources to help you become the best, most effective advocate you can be \u2014 no matter what your cause is.\nIf you\u2019re ready to start your Care2 petition, here\u2019s what you\u2019ve got to know:\nStep 1: Choose a clear and specific goal to work towards.\nWe all know how it feels to be hurt, confused, or upset. Now it\u2019s time to channel that energy \u2014 but first, you need to define what it is you want to change. Learn how to define your goal.\nStep 2: Write an eye-catching, rallying title.\nYour title is the first thing anyone will see about your petition, so it needs to be clear, short, and energetic. Read up on how to write an attention-grabbing title here.\nStep 3: Write up your petition.\nThis is your chance to fully explain to strangers what exactly is happening, how it is wrong and concerning, and why you are trying to do something about it. Don\u2019t forget to tell your personal story, too, if you have a direct connection to your issue (and you can also tell your story even if you just learned about this issue in the news). We\u2019ll teach you how to write your petition, step-by-step, in this blog post.\nStep 4: Find a dramatic, powerful photo for your petition.\nThis is the best and easiest way to create a direct emotional connection with your readers. Want someone to deeply care about your issue? Choose an evocative photo. Let us help you \u2014 read our top tips.\nStep 5: Choose a decision-maker to target.\nThis person will be the recipient of your petition, once you feel like you\u2019ve collected enough signatures. They should be someone in a position of authority who is able to make your goal a reality. Not sure how to choose your target? We\u2019ll teach you how.\nCongratulations! Now you\u2019re ready to start your own Care2 petition, a serious step toward making a real and lasting difference. And we are so, so glad to have you here.",

        "raw_content": "Mervyn King attacks Theresa May: Brexit plan \u2018betrays\u2019 Britain\nEDINBURGH \u2014 Brexit discussions in the House of Commons have been going very badly for Prime Minister Theresa May. Previous supporters have turned against her. Former chief whip Mark Harper told the Tory- and May-supporting The Telegraph that he would break 13 years of loyalty to the Government by voting against Theresa May\u2019s Brexit plan, saying: \u201cBrexit should be an opportunity for our country to spread its wings, not have them clipped.\u201d He claims the proposed withdrawal agreement \u201cnot only compromises the integrity of our country\u201d but also breaches the Conservative manifesto, insisting it \u201cleaves the UK in a worse position that we are now\u201d in an article published today. Former Bank of England governor Mervyn King has weighed in, slamming May in a powerful opinion piece run by news agency Bloomberg. He accuses her of betraying Britain (read his full article, below). In the meantime, Scottish remainers have confirmed that the UK can stop Brexit in its tracks without permission from the rest of the European Union. Although still to be ratified by 27 judges, the Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ) stated yesterday that the UK has the power to unilaterally revive Article 50, reports Scotland\u2019s The National. Scotland voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU. \u2013 Jackie Cameron\nMervyn King*\n(Bloomberg) \u2013 When Tony Blair and Boris Johnson unite in their condemnation of the \u201cdeal\u201d under which Theresa May proposes that the U.K. should leave the EU, you know something has gone badly wrong. The withdrawal agreement is less a carefully crafted diplomatic compromise and more the result of incompetence of a high order. I have friends who are passionate Remainers and others who are passionate Leavers. None of them believe this deal makes any sense. It is time to think again, and the first step is to reject a deal that is the worst of all worlds.\nCommons row as Brexit legal advice published\nTheresa May has been accused of \"misleading Parliament, inadvertently or otherwise\" as the full legal advice on her Brexit deal was published.\nThe Scottish National Party said the PM had \"concealed the facts\" after the advice, which warns of an \"indefinite\" backstop deal with the EU, came out.\nMinisters were found in contempt of Parliament on Tuesday for providing only a legal overview of the deal.\nBut the PM said the two documents were consistent and the position was clear.\nWhile the UK would have no unilateral right to withdraw from the backstop - a measure designed to prevent the return of physical checks on the Irish border - she insisted neither the UK nor the EU wanted the backstop to come into force in the first place.\nBut the Democratic Unionists said the legal viewpoint was \"devastating\" for Mrs May's prospects of getting the backing of MPs for her deal in a vote on 11 December.",

(Alberto Font/The Tico Times)\nHold the guac! That side of guacamole could get a lot more expensive now that Costa Rica has decided to temporarily ban avocado imports from nine countries, including the world\u2019s largest producer of avocados, Mexico.\nCosta Rica produces only a small percentage of the avocados its population consumes, and one local producer predicted prices could rise as much as 25 percent.\nA virus called \u201csunblotch\u201d affecting avocado crops around the world \u2014 especially the coveted Hass variety \u2014 drove the country\u2019s Plant Health Services to close Costa Rica\u2019s borders to imports of the fruit on Tuesday, according to a statement from the Livestock and Agriculture Ministry.\nAlong with Mexico, avocados from Australia, Spain, Ghana, Guatemala, Israel, South Africa, Venezuela and the U.S. state of Florida have also been temporarily blocked.\nOfficials said the virus could do serious damage to the country\u2019s roughly 900 small avocado producers if the plague finds its way in. The virus reduces the quantity and quality of avocados, affecting the tree\u2019s leaves and deforming the fruit with yellow stains.\nAs of April, sunblotch had not reached Costa Rica.\nThe decision to block avocado imports from Mexico could leave many suppliers scrambling. Mexico is the world\u2019s largest producer of avocados and the single biggest exporter of avocados to Costa Rica.\nMexico was responsible for more than 80 percent of the 12,563 metric tons of avocados imported in 2014, according to figures from Costa Rica\u2019s Foreign Trade Promotion Office.\nCosta Rica\u2019s annual avocado production tops out at just 2,000 metric tons, according to the agriculture ministry.\nCarlos Gamboa, manager of APACO, an avocado growers cooperative in the Los Santos area south of San Jos\u00e9, told The Tico Times that he expected prices for avocados to jump as high as 25 percent as importers look to more distant sources, like Chile, Peru or California to fill demand.\nAvocados have become part of the basic Costa Rican diet during the last several decades, Gamboa said, so given high demand, it\u2019s likely supply will be quickly replaced.\nHe said he was pleased with the government\u2019s decision to ban imports from sunblotch-infected regions.\n\u201cWe\u2019re very satisfied to see the Costa Rican government taking steps to protect domestic production,\u201d Gamboa said.\nPlant Health Services Director Francisco Dall\u00b4Anese has been in dialogue with his Mexican peers to find an alternative to safely allow Mexican avocados back into Costa Rica without risking the country\u2019s domestic production. The agency said in a statement that it\u2019s working to establish import protocols for the other affected countries.\nagricultureavocadosimportsMAG\nCosta Rica taxi fares to drop\nCosta Rica women\u2019s soccer team headed to World Cup for first time",

        "raw_content": "Rat in me kitchen, part 1: L\u00e8se majest\u00e9\nWhen I was on my mission -- don't you hate it when guys in Sunday School start their spiritual anecdotes that way? I mean, come on, 24 hours a day with another guy, no entertainment, no women, and that was the \"best two years of your life\"? Yikes. But don't worry, this isn't a spiritual anecdote, it's a rat anecdote. Anyway, when I was on my mission, the first area I was sent to was up in the snowy mountains of northern Japan. The branch I was in had about four active members in it, so we didn't have our own church building or anything. Church was in a rented building. Downstairs there were a big room that we used for sacrament meeting, two smaller rooms that we could use for classrooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom.\nUpstairs there were two little rooms, which is where the missionaries slept. That's right -- we lived in the church. So every Sunday, we'd invite people over to our place for church. Most of them didn't come. Maybe it was because they thought we were poor hosts. All we offered our guests was a torn-off piece of bread and a tiny cup of water; some guests we wouldn't even let have that.\nSo anyway, this was a small, prefab, cheap, dingy commercial building, not a real house or anything. Like most buildings of its type back then, it had no central heating and no insulation. We heated whatever room we were using with kerosene stoves. Now, this was up in the mountains in winter, in a place where the snow stayed on the ground from December until late March. We had to turn off the heat overnight, because you can't leave a kerosene stove on when you're asleep without the risk of turning that sleep into an eternal one. That meant that on really cold nights, the temperature would drop below freezing inside the building. A couple of times, I left a half-glass of water by my pillow and woke up in the morning to find it partly frozen. Seriously. If you had food in the kitchen, the only way to be sure it wouldn't freeze overnight was to put it in the refrigerator.\nOK, sorry for the long set up. Now for the rat. There were just two of us missionaries living there, me and my \"companion.\" (Fortunately, the situation wasn't nearly as homoerotic as that may sound. We hated each other's guts.) Anyway, we started hearing scuffling noises under the kitchen floor. We had a rat. Like many thieves, this one began with the theft of petty objects of little value. Leftover food would disappear if we forgot to wash the dishes. We'd find a little garbage scattered on the floor after the rat had been at it. Things like that. As with many thieves, however, success bred greed, and the rat began to move on to better and bigger things. Our own food began to disappear. An apple. The three-inch remainder of a loaf of French bread. A banana. Clearly, this was a most enterprising rodent.\nThe last straw came one Sunday morning. The night before, I had left the remainder of a loaf of bread -- two and a half slices -- in what I thought was a rat-safe location. The bread was for my breakfast and for Sacrament Meeting. Two slices for me, and, since we only needed bread for about six people, a half slice for the sacrament. When I came downstairs Sunday morning, though, there was no bread where I had left it. There was only an empty wrapper and half a slice of bread on the floor. No bread for my breakfast, but apparently the rat was a pious one, because it had left the half slice for our Sacrament Meeting. That is to say, it's a little hard to tell tooth marks from the marks left by a serrated knife, but I was pretty sure that it was the same half slice and not another one that the rat had eaten half of and left behind.\nAfter Sacrament Meeting, my companion and I discussed the matter. I'm a tolerant man, but this rodent had gone too far. Stealing my breakfast was an act of l\u00e8se majest\u00e9 for which even the piety of leaving bread for the sacrament could not atone. The rat was condemned in absentia to the sentence of death, without appeal, may God have mercy on its soul.(To be continued...)\nLabels: humor, Japan, LDS, memories\nMsBolte 1/14/2006 9:53 AM\nYou can't leave a girl hanging like that.

        "raw_content": "Justice finally will be served in Hoerig case\nIt was Trumbull County Prosecutor Dennis Watkins whom Paul Hoerig praised first when we contacted him after learning of murder defendant Claudia Hoerig\u2019s return to Trumbull County to face charges in the murder of Paul\u2019s brother, Karl.\nCertainly, Watkins\u2019 name came to mind first because of his never-ending persistence and devotion to this case that involved a seemingly insurmountable international extradition battle.\nIt had been more than a decade since the woman accused of killing her husband, Air Force Maj. Karl Hoerig, had fled to her native Brazil. She was subsequently indicted by a Trumbull County grand jury on a charge of aggravated murder with a gun specification.\nKarl was a highly decorated pilot with the U.S. Air Force Reserve. He was assigned to the 910th Tactical Airlift Wing at the Youngstown Air Reserve Station in Vienna, where he flew C-130H planes.\nKarl\u2019s body was found March 15, 2007, after his wife had left the country, returning to her native Brazil.\nBefore marrying Karl, Claudia had renounced her Brazilian citizenship and became an American citizen. Still, the South American country for years had denied U.S. requests to return her to Ohio authorities.\nWatkins led the local efforts to return her to the U.S. for trial. He remained steadfast in returning her to America for trial, refusing offers by Brazil to try her in that country.\nHe knew his high standards would be maintained here, which included no less than a fair trial as he worked to prove her guilty of the cold-blooded killing.\nIn his fight to return Hoerig to Ohio, Watkins was joined by U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Howland, and former U.S. Rep. and and now state Rep. John Boccieri, D-New Middletown, in efforts that included hundreds of attempts via letters, emails and court action and congressional demands. Ultimately, the U.S. State Department also stepped in to ensure Claudia Hoerig\u2019s recent return to American soil.\nAll those involved deserve praise.\nThe family of Karl Hoerig never gave up, and they, too, must be praised for their resolute faith. Family and friends kept constant vigil via social media, as well, continuing to shine light on this case that could so easily have fallen through the cracks.\nPaul, especially, demonstrated persistence and showed not a second of hesitation when invited last year by CBS\u2019s \u201c48 Hours\u201d to go with a news crew to Brazil in an attempt to rouse interest and urge the Brazilian government\u2019s cooperation.\nThe \u201c48 Hours\u201d report extended to a national level the coverage that local media, including the Tribune Chronicle, has been doing for years. It put a face on Karl Hoerig and his family that international powers no longer could ignore.\nThe work by Watkins and all these others involved in Claudia Hoerig\u2019s return was no less than amazing. Watkins would tell you, however, that the work really is just beginning. Justice will be served only once this high-profile case has been adjudicated.\nThey say justice delayed is justice denied. In this case, however, we say it\u2019s never too late.",

        "raw_content": "Chaturbate is quickly becoming one of the favorite chat sites for live shemale amateurs. Why? Because it\u2019s the only site to offer 100% FREE live sex shows. You\u2019re encouraged to tip the performers, but you\u2019re not required to. Members will enjoy additional features by purchasing credit, including access to private shows. But for the casual cam viewer, it\u2019s a site you\u2019ll want to visit often and it\u2019s without putting a dent in your bank account.\nThe home page displays the model currently online by webcam screenshots. You can quickly locate your preferred niche by clicking on one of the tabs on top: Featured, Female, Male, Couple, and Trans. For this review, we\u2019ll focus on the transgender section of the site. Lots of sexy teens and amateur fuck buddies here, but not a lot of famous pornstars.\nLive Transgender Models\nAs I write this review, there are currently 190+ TS models online, which is much more than I was expecting. The site is definitely gaining in popularity, and it\u2019s no longer difficult to spot perfect 10s. Each of the Tgirls are displayed by snap shops taken from their live webcam feed. There\u2019s a mix of real-life partners and solo girl-next-door types. Just click on the babe that you like most to open her public free video chat room.\nOnce inside her chat room, you\u2019ll find the chat box on the right. You can view the live video and listen to the model(s) voices as they flirt and tease their viewing audience. You can also read what all the other members are typing. If you want to take part in the chat session, then you\u2019ll need to sign up for a free account (assuming you\u2019re over 18 years old). You don\u2019t need a credit card to join. Heck, you don\u2019t even need a valid email. Just choose a username and password and you\u2019re good to go.\nChaturbate is as much of an online community as it is an adult chat site. There are message boards, free picture galleries (from live show snapshots), and webcam model blogs. You get all the basic chat features, and there\u2019s usually a couple dozen HD webcams. You can also make money online by broadcasting your webcam for the world to see.\nThere are other features as well. For example, you can contact the models privately to request specific fetish shows. And you can spy on the models while their giving private shows for other members. Each model has a detailed bio page with a history of their contest stats from previous shows. If there\u2019s one particular model that piques your interest, then you can opt to enter her private room for a pay-per-minute hardcore show.\nYou can also compare how Chaturbate with other Shemale Cam sites on TS Reviews own top list with the Best Shemale Cams.\nChaturbate can be summed up as free amateur webcam porn. There\u2019s an interesting variety of sexy amateurs, some of whom are much more attractive than others. And there\u2019s always a good selection regardless of when you visit the site. Unless you\u2019re planning on become a webcam performer yourself, some of the features won\u2019t apply to you. But if you enjoy live webcam porn, and you don\u2019t like paying exorbitant pay-per-minute chat rates, then you\u2019re going to love this site.",

        "raw_content": "On this day, IUPUI chancellor Dr. Glenn W. Irwin, Jr., named Dr. Paul R. Bippen director of the IUPUI-Columbus Center. Bippen had served as interim director of the center since 1976, and before that he had been assistant to Indiana University's chancellor for regional programs and assistant to the IUPUI dean of the faculties.\nFor years Columbus citizens had pressed state-government leaders to provide higher-education opportunities in the city. When the General Assembly nixed the idea of a \"Columbus Community College,\" city leaders asked state universities to set up a presence there. IU and Purdue University responded by assigning IUPUI to create a teaching center offering courses to meet Columbus's needs. The new extension center opened on August 17, 1970, with two employees: the director and a secretary. Thus, a university less than one-year-old had grown a satellite.\nThe name and mission of this center were politically sensitive in its early years. In order to secure initial funding, local legislators had to promise that regional campus status would not be sought for Columbus. Eventually these promises became outdated. With campus growth also came name changes to IUPUI Columbus, and still later IUPU Columbus.\nOther sensitivities also affected IUPU Columbus. For over 20 years university leaders vetoed business degree programs in Columbus. Finally, in fall 2000 the IU Board of Trustees and the Indiana Commission on Higher Education approved a site-specific bachelors and, one month later, a graduate degree (MBA) for Columbus. These approvals came with full realization that they would change IUPU Columbus into a degree-granting site.\nToday \"IUPUC\" is a thriving campus that employes 263 full-time and part-time faculty and staff. IUPUC students can now complete eleven programs entirely at IUPUC.\nDr. Bippen, appointed dean in 1994, is now retired but continues to serve both IUPUC and IUPUI actively. He currently serves on the IUPUI Campus History Committee during our Fiftieth Anniversary celebration. Each of his successors as dean of IUPUC has been appointed a vice chancellor of IUPUI.\nDo you have questions about IUPUI's fascinating history?

The honorees are:\nHENRY CLEERE, mentor, teacher, and friend to a generation of heritage professionals throughout the world, is being honored for his dedication to the cause of World Heritage and to his contributions to international heritage policy and practice. Professor Cleere began his career in archaeology after working in the steel industry for nearly twenty years, eventually obtaining his PhD in 1980 at the Institute of Archaeology of University College London (where he has been Honorary Professor of Archaeological Heritage Management since 1998).\nHe was Director of the Council for British Archaeology from 1974 to 1991, followed by eleven years (1992 to 2002) in Paris as World Heritage Coordinator for the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS). Since that time he has been a consultant on the management aspects of World Heritage and other urban and archaeological sites in a number of countries, including Bahrain, China, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Oman, Tunisia, and Ukraine. He has edited two major works on heritage management: Approaches to the Archaeological Heritage (Cambridge, 1984) and Archaeological Heritage Management in the Modern World (London, 1989). A founder member and first Secretary General of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA), he was the recipient of its European Heritage Award in 2002. In 2010 he received the annual Conservation and Management Award of the Archaeological Institute of America. He is currently a Senior Advisor to the US-based Global Heritage Fund.\nBARBARA J. LITTLE is being honored for her prolific and fundamental work in public archaeology, issues of public outreach and involvement, evaluation and official designations of archaeological places, and on the public relevance of archaeology. Her book Historical Archaeology: Why the Past Matters (2007) was named an \"Outstanding Academic Title\" by Choice in 2008.

        "raw_content": "ILC Comm Hub, 3rd Floor\nDaisy Tam, Ph.D., will be presenting current research which investigates the potential of a networked approach to crowdsourcing food rescue in urban environments. Like many cosmopolitan cities, Hong Kong\u2019s urban food system is unsustainable \u2013 it spends 4.4% of its GDP to import over 90% of the food it consumes and disposes 3648 tonnes of it a day into landfills, while 1.3 million people face food insecurity. Tackling the logistical challenge of food rescue contributes positively to waste reduction and poverty alleviation and increases community resilience. In the talk, I will cover the design aspects of the platform, theoretical implications of collective intelligence, and insights drawn from the urban food system in Hong Kong.\nDaisy Tam is the Fulbright Senior Scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Urban Risk Lab. She is assistant professor at the Hong Kong Baptist University where she teaches and does research on food systems and practices with a particular focus on urban food security. Her current project is a theoretical and technical undertaking where she explores the potential of community driven practices in food rescue.

While deck building games have become increasingly popular at retail, the vast majority lack the name recognition and firepower that come with the beloved characters from the Marvel Universe until now.\nGamers can play with popular Marvel Super Heroes like Spider-Man, Iron Man and Wolverine and the game features a never-before-seen game engine designed by Devin Low, the former Head Developer of Magic: The Gathering\u00ae. Legendary is unlike a traditional trading card game because all 560 cards are available right in the box, instead of having to purchase booster packs. Additionally, the game can be played with a single player or with as many as five players.\nIn Legendary each player starts with a deck of basic cards and then improves that deck throughout the game by recruiting Marvel\u2019s greatest heroes in an effort to defeat evil Marvel Mastermind cards featuring evil characters like Loki and Magneto. Throughout the game, players will need to use recruit points to enlist the help of more heroes while also boosting their fighting abilities in order to combat those pesky villains who pop up throughout the game looking to fulfill the Masterminds diabolical schemes.\nThe truly unique component to Legendary is that the game fights back. The villains frequently take action against players and can potentially win the game if the heroes cannot defeat them. However, it isn\u2019t just the evil masterminds players will need to worry about however as they will also have several instances during the game where a conflict arises within the team and it is up to the players to work through it.\nAnother compelling aspect of Legendary is that every unique piece of art used in the game is completely original. It was important to Upper Deck Entertainment that Marvel fans experience not only a cool new gaming experience, but are also treated to amazing artwork that has never been seen before.\n\u201cSeeing gamers interact with Legendary at trade shows throughout the summer, it is clear that Marvel fans have been chomping at the bit for this type of gaming experience to come along,\u201d said Jason Brenner, Upper Deck\u2019s Marvel brand manager. \u201cThis is the type of gaming experience Marvel fans have wanted for some time and Upper Deck Entertainment is pleased to be able to deliver it in time for the holiday season. It is time to expect more from a gaming experience, and Legendary delivers just that.\u201d\nMarvel fans can become \u201clegendary\u201d when the game arrives in stores on November 13, 2012. Legendary carries a suggested retail price of $59.99 per game and includes 560 cards, a full color game board and color rule book.",

        "raw_content": "Shaw V MFP Foundations & Piling Ltd\nThe statutory demands made by the contractor against the homeowners in respect of the sum which the adjudicator directed the homeowners to pay the contractor should be set aside\nThe homeowners' ground of appeal was correct and should be accepted, namely that it was wrong as a matter of law for the judge at first instance to have refused to set aside the statutory demands on the grounds that the homeowners' ability to pay the sum awarded by the adjudicator was a decisive or principal reason not to do so and that there was therefore no real risk that they would be prevented by bankruptcy from pursuing the arbitration to overturn the adjudicator's decision. The judge at first instance therefore erred in a material respect with the results that the appeal should be allowed on this basis and it was necessary for this appeal court to exercise the discretion afresh and in doing so, to consider the contractor's cross appeal.\nThe contractor cross appealed on the ground that a statutory demand should not be set aside on the ground of there being a cross claim equalling or exceeding the amount of the debt specified in the statutory demand where the debt(s) in the statutory demand was based on a judgment enforcing an adjudication award and bankruptcy proceedings were not being used to stifle a genuine counterclaim, set off or cross demand. The contractor's cross appeal should be dismissed because the bankruptcy court would have regard to all relevant circumstances and would not be circumscribed in the exercise of its discretion in the manner. Whilst the contractor placed considerable emphasis on the policy behind the Construction Act, namely the \"pay now, litigate later\" philosophy, there was nothing in the Act or in the Scheme for Construction Contracts which indicated that it was intended that this policy should displace the position as applied to personal insolvency by rule 6.5(4) of the Insolvency Rules 1986 or to corporate insolvency by caselaw. The court should not start from the presumption that a debtor was not entitled to rely on a substantial and genuine cross claim save where it would be oppressive to prevent him from so doing. The court's discretion should be exercised afresh by setting aside the statutory demands on the basis that it appeared clear on the evidence and it was accepted by the contractor that the homeowners' cross claim was one which was both genuine and substantial and equalled or exceeded the amount of the statutory demands.",

He didn\u2019t have a cell phone on him because he doesn\u2019t want them to distract him while driving customers\u2019 cars, according to the Daily Star.\nAs two other good Samaritans pulled over and called 911, Scott broke the window with a rock and unlocked the door. He checked for Clara\u2019s pulse but couldn\u2019t find one.\nOur impact. https://t.co/n5Ie1xkYjN\n\u2014 The Office (@theofficenbc) January 24, 2019\nScott says he just reacted. Even though he had no first aid training, he got in the car and began giving the woman CPR.\n\u201cI\u2019ve never prepared myself for CPR in my life,\u201d Scott told the Daily Star. \u201cI had no idea what I was doing.\u201d\nLuckily, Scott had seen \u201cStress Relief,\u201d a decade-old episode of \u201cThe Office\u201d in which manager Michael Scott, played by Steve Carell, and his team learn to perform chest compressions to the beat of the Bee Gees\u2019 \u201cStayin\u2019 Alive.\u201d\nWhen Scott began chest compressions, he sang the song out loud. According to the Daily Star, all he could think about in that moment was \u201cThe Office.\u201d\nAfter a minute, Clara took a breath and threw up. The three good Samaritans rolled her onto her side.\nScott says by the time paramedics arrived, about 10 minutes had passed since he first pulled over, and one of them told him if he hadn\u2019t helped Clara, the situation could have turned out very differently.\nDespite the praise, Scott told the Daily Star the real heroes are the paramedics who save people every day, but he would like to get trained in CPR.\nClara was taken to the hospital and released later the same day.\nGood thing he didn\u2019t try to harvest the organs. pic.twitter.com/2gnUhiK1eZ\n\u2014 JJ McCormick (@jjmccormick08) January 25, 2019\nOfficials with the Red Cross confirm \u201cStayin\u2019 Alive\u201d has the appropriate number of beats per minute for use in chest compressions. According to the Washington Post, other songs that could be used include Lady Gaga\u2019s \u201cJust Dance,\u201d Stray Cats\u2019 \u201cRock this Town\u201d and Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s \u201cCrazy in Love.\u201d\nThey also encourage everyone to take CPR courses.\n\u201cChest compressions alone are a benefit to the patient,\u201d said Jonathan Epstein, the senior director of science at the American Red Cross training services. \u201cYou can\u2019t hurt them if they\u2019re not breathing, so all you can do is make them better.\u201d",

They moved their normal positions in the house a few times and depended on us and each other for love. The end result is a different life for all of us.\nLosing someone dear to our hearts changes us. We don\u2019t get over it, we pick up what pieces are left and reassemble them the best that we can. We adjust. We change. We go on because that is the only viable option.\nAnyone who is among the living has hope \u2014 even a live dog is better off than a dead lion.\nLife is a precious gift from God and must be preserved if at all possible. When God made man, He put in us the will to live. Had He not done that, people would lay down and die for little or no reason at all. We would see no point in continuing. Even with our God-given will to live, we often struggle. We must depend on others\u2019 hope and strength when we cannot find our own.\nI have known people who say that God\u2019s strength is all that they need to survive and prosper. Those are people who have never been ground into dust by loss or failure. They have not yet been tested and that time will eventually come for them. It always does and those who wear a mask of strength are usually the ones who fall the hardest and need the most support. There is nothing you can do to help them until they are at their lowest and they are the most difficult to convince that life is worth living. They depend on their strength. Oh, they say the beautiful words that God is their strength but pride in their own faith is still pride and pride precedes destruction.\nWe can hope and pray that these people do not fall when we need them the most but the truth is that we should not expect these people to be supportive because they only support themselves. We must adjust because they will not until they have no choice and their adjustment is liable to be destructive. The ones who are the most pious are the ones who collapse first under pressure. When their hope is gone, their only option is a scorched earth reaction. They are the ones most likely to destroy everyone near them and then put a gun in their mouth. They are their own self-fulfilling prophecy.\nYou know the ones I am talking about. They are the ones who offer pious words of encouragement that have no substance. They say things like \u201cGod will grant you strength and mercy in your time of need,\u201d and might even throw in, \u201cWe will be praying for you,\u201d but there is never a touch. They cannot offer a touch when a touch is needed. Words are cheap and meaningless when action is needed.\nThe Duchess, the Budster and even Mumford turned to us in their time of need. We were there for them and they were there for us. We touched. Others reached out and touched us to the extent of their ability even if it was a virtual touch over the Internet. The pious and self-righteous disappeared. We adjusted and we are healing. The missing in action adjusted to preserve their shallow piety and their lack of support was duly noted.",

Well? I\u2019m fantastic. Tired, but fantastic. Busy, but fantastic.\nI\u2019ve been meaning to assure you all that I did, in fact, stop feeling sorry for myself upon completing my last post. I\u2019ve been eating great (most of it cooked in house), getting in a bunch of exercise (despite the deep freeze), and accomplishing a ton at work (a necessity given my week-and-a-half-long hiatus). It has really made me feel better about myself and get over my holiday/vacation indiscretions. Which is good, because life is meant to be lived, not regretted.\nI still haven\u2019t made any real goals for the year. Usually I take some time to reflect at the start of the year, but I swear to you: I haven\u2019t gotten an opportunity to yet\u2026 and it\u2019s the 6th. Crazy. All of my free time has been spent doing things that are not conducive to reflection. Like sleeping.\nThere are, however, some new things I want to try this year, some of which I\u2019ve already started or have signed up for/committed to. Like the half marathon(!) on May 2nd. And a hip-hop class(!!) that starts in 3 weeks. And hiking, which I did in Arizona last week, and plan on doing more of when Pittsburgh is no longer frigid. And racquetball and/or tennis.\nThat seems like a good list for now. I\u2019ll keep you posted.\nThough, not with photos of me attempting hip hop, so don\u2019t get your hopes up.\nThis entry was posted on Wednesday, January 6th, 2010 at 8:45 pm\tand is filed under Personal Stories, Trials and Tribulations.

        "raw_content": "The Legacy of Antonin Scalia: Don't Mourn, Organize\nby Ruthann Robson\nWith the unanticipated death of Justice Antonin Scalia on February 13, the United States Supreme Court has become a more hospitable forum for feminist causes. While Justice Scalia was not alone in his hostility to feminism\u2014remaining Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas are equally unsympathetic\u2014Scalia proved himself particularly rancorous during his three decades on the high court bench. In opinion after opinion, Scalia expressed views inconsistent with women\u2019s equality: he believed that an historically all-male military academy should be able to continue to exclude women; that the constitution did not protect a woman\u2019s right to abortion or her right to be free from domestic violence; and that the constitution should not prohibit attorneys from excusing potential jurors based on their gender. He was an ardent foe of sexual minority rights, contending that the constitution did not protect against the criminalization of same-sex intimacies or the prohibition of same-sex marriages. He believed a state should be able to prevent local laws that outlawed discrimination based on sexual orientation. He did credit theconstitution as having rights for some: if you claimed to be \u201cdisadvantaged\u201d by an affirmative action program; or if you wanted to purchase, own, or use firearms; or if you challenged environmental regulations on your beach front property, then Scalia\u2019s constitution proved most accommodating.\nScalia\u2019s positions can be linked to his espousal of an \u201coriginalist\u201d theory of constitutional interpretation, but the theory provides an incomplete explanation for his views. Under an originalist perspective, the Constitution is limited to the notions of the men\u2014and they were all men, some of them slaveholders, all of them white and affluent\u2014who authored the document. This perspective has the obvious disadvantage of exiling the majority of Americans, even then, from constitutional aspirations. It also produces less obvious problems of \u201ccherry-picking\u201d the views even of those men, whose ideas not only conflicted with each other but were also sometimes internally inconsistent. Moreover, the notions of the original \u201cfounding fathers\u201d were superseded as the Constitution itself was amended. The Nineteenth Amendment, ratified in 1920, accorded women the right to vote (finally), acceding to a demand of the feminist activists of the women\u2019s suffrage movement. Given such complications, it should be no surprise that Scalia\u2019s jurisprudence is often criticized, including by conservatives, for not being consistently originalist, or as Scalia himself once described himself, as being a \u201cfaint hearted\u201d orginalist.\nScalia sometimes expressed his preference for an \u201coriginalism\u201d that was better described as \u201ctextualism.\u201d In other words, it is the words of the Constitution that govern all constitutional disputes. Yet again, even if the words were clear, this explanation does not satisfy. Scalia justified his refusal to entertain the possibility that the Constitution could include a right to abortion or contraception by the text of the Constitution. As he wrote, dissenting, \u201cthe Constitution says absolutely nothing about it.\u201d However, the text of the Ninth Amendment, which he conveniently ignored, precludes such a negative inference from the failure to specifically enumerate a right.\nScalia also conveniently ignored the values he championed, including what might be called respect for women, civility, and not \u201cpunching down.\u201d In the watershed case of United States v. Virginia, involving a constitutional challenge to the Virginia Military Institute\u2019s (VMI) exclusion of women cadets, Justice Scalia dissented. He argued that by mandating women\u2019s acceptance into the college, the court was essentially assaulting the tradition that men honor women. Extensively quoting from \u201cThe Code of a Gentleman\u201d issued by VMI, Scalia highlighted the manners that \u201cgentlemen\u201d should express toward \u201cladies\u201d and others. A gentleman, says the code:\nDoes not speak more than casually about his girl friend.\nDoes not go to a lady\u2019s house if he is affected by alcohol.\nDoes not lose his temper; nor exhibit anger, fear, hate, embarrassment, ardor, or hilarity in public.\nDoes not hail a lady from a club window.\nA gentleman never discusses the merits or demerits of a lady.\nDoes not slap strangers on the back nor so much as lay a finger on a lady.\nDoes not \u2018lick the boots of those above\u2019 nor \u2018kick the face of those below him on the social ladder.\u2019\nBut as Professor Michael Frost has pointed out, Justice Scalia\u2019s dissenting opinion in the case violates some of the very notions of civility expressed in \u201cThe Code of a Gentleman,\u201d including exhibiting anger.\nIn fact, much of Justice Scalia\u2019s writing could be considered the antithesis of gentlemanly. His prose was most often described in terms such as \u201cacerbic\u201d or \u201cscathing.\u201d There were many who took great delight in this combative style of writing. It was good for soundbites in the press, certainly. But praising Scalia\u2019s opinions for being witty or \u201cdirect\u201d is similar to praising Donald Trump for such qualities. In fact, it lowered the level of discourse to playground insults.\nEven if a caustic style may be appropriate in written opinions, Scalia\u2019s oral performances were often similarly acid. This was true not only in lectures and appearances, as for example, when Scalia scoffed at law students, but also in formal oral arguments before the Court. Law Professor Rick Hasen documented Scalia as the \u201cmost sarcastic\u201d justice, the one most often to elicit laughter. But Scalia\u2019s comments also provoked gasps from the courtroom. Such was the case in December when Scalia, asking a question from the bench in a university affirmative action case that has not yet been decided\u2014and now will be decided without him\u2014opined that African Americans would be better off in \u201clesser schools where they do not feel that they\u2019re being pushed ahead in in classes that are too\u2026fast for them.\u201d\nIn a different oral argument, Scalia berated the woman attorney defending the constitutionality of a Massachusetts law requiring a \u201cbuffer zone\u201d around abortion clinics. In her first sentences, the attorney referred to the clinic demonstrators as \u201cprotesters.\u201d Scalia accused her of distortion and vehemently disagreed, preferring \u201ccounselors.\u201d Having made his point, he nevertheless chastised the woman attorney when she again used the word \u201cprotesters.\u201d Supreme Court proceedings are not recorded on video, but the audio recording is available, and telling. Scalia\u2019s conduct, in this case and others, can accurately be described as \u201cbullying.\u201d Not surprisingly, when comedians portray the Supreme Court Justices as dogs, Scalia\u2019s totem is a bulldog.\nIn short, feminists have no reason to mourn Scalia\u2019s departure from the court. His absence shifts the court\u2019s ideological balance, although whether or not it will affect the important abortion case before the court this year is uncertain. The court now has three women justices\u2014Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan\u2014each of whom could be fairly described as feminist. But among the now eight justices are two archconservatives who are openly opposed to feminism and progressive causes: Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. The remaining three justices have a mixed record, with Justice Breyer tending toward Ginsburg\u2019s views, Justice Kennedy being decidedly better on sexual orientation issues than on feminist issues, and Chief Justice Roberts tending toward Scalia\u2019s views. The issue now is who will replace Justice Scalia. It\u2019s tempting to say we could do no worse\u2014but we could.\nRuthann Robson is Professor of Law and University Distinguished Professor at City University of New York (CUNY) School of Law, where she teaches in the areas of constitutional law and sexuality and law.

        "title": "Are impeachments a case of too swift justice? | News, Sports, Jobs - Weirton Daily Times",
        "raw_content": "Are impeachments a case of too swift justice?\nWell, here we are. The West Virginia House of Delegates meets this morning to discuss and pass 14 Articles of Impeachment against every single sitting justice of the state Supreme Court of Appeals.\nIf it seems like we went from a slow and deliberate process to maximum warp, trust me when I say that the delegates on the House Judiciary Committee were just as surprised as you were. Democratic members of the committee expected Tuesday to be a short day.\nFrom what I understand, committee leaders came to a realization last Monday night. The legislature just wrapped up the second session of the 83rd Legislature. With all House members up for re-election in November, those who win will become part of the first session of the 84th Legislature, which will also result in the election of a new House speaker.\nWhat does all of that mean? It means there is a window of time that lawmakers have to complete the impeachment and conviction process. If this stretches on to the end of the year, the whole process has to start over from scratch. Committee leaders had no choice but wrap up the impeachment investigation and bring Articles of Impeachment before the committee.\nThere was agreement on many of the Articles of Impeachment, but there was much disagreement over articles dealing with the spending of taxpayer dollars. The Supreme Court has control over its budget, some argued, and while they agreed there was extravagant waste, it wasn\u2019t criminal.\nAccording to the state constitution, \u201cAny officer of the state may be impeached for maladministration, corruption, incompetency, gross immorality, neglect of duty, or any high crime or misdemeanor.\u201d The bulk of the reasons that can be used for impeachment are not criminal in nature.\nAs I\u2019ve been fond of saying, impeachment is a political process. It\u2019s not a legal or criminal process. The reasons for impeachment are very broad. For example, maladministration can be defined as \u201ccorrupt or incompetent administration.\u201d\nThe problem, however, is lawmakers are seeing first-hand how easily it is to bring Articles of Impeachment against someone. Some on Twitter called for the impeachment of Senate President Mitch Carmichael for spending more than $800,000 on bathroom renovations. If a lawmaker believes this was corrupt or incompetent use of taxpayer dollars, you certainly can.\nHowever, while it may be easy to bring Articles of Impeachment, we\u2019re about to discover how hard it is to convict and remove someone from office. Using Carmichael as an example again, you\u2019re going to have to get two-thirds of senators \u2014 who sit as jury during impeachment trials \u2014 to believe that $800,000 on bathroom renovations is a waste.\nThe bulk of those renovations occurred in the Senate\u2019s six public restrooms. They had never been renovated in the history of the building. They were gutted, the crumbling 90-year-old plumbing and fixtures were removed, it was made compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and restored to the way that Capitol architect Cass Gilbert wanted. They\u2019re not gold-plated, and one need only compare the House restrooms with the Senate restrooms to see why the renovations were needed.\nThe differences between Senate bathrooms and the offices of Supreme Court justices is night and day.\nSpeaking of the justice\u2019s offices, I\u2019ve been greatly confused how each justice was allowed to have such architecturally-different offices.\nIn Charleston, we have a Capitol Building Commission which rules on all updates and changes to the Capitol grounds. You can\u2019t cut down a dead tree on the Capitol grounds that\u2019s in danger of falling on a sidewalk without approval from the commission. The commission tries to protect the legacy of Cass Gilbert and keep the building the way he intended it to look.\nShouldn\u2019t the Capitol Building Commission have had a say in approving the Supreme Court office renovations? The court\u2019s administrator even serves as an ex officio member of the commission.\nAs Parkersburg News City Editor Jesse Mancini wrote last week, the court issued a letter to State Auditor J.B. McCuskey, who raised concerns over the irresponsible use of state purchasing cards by the court. Interim court administrator Barbara Allen didn\u2019t mince words with her response: the Supreme Court is not subject to purchasing card rules. It\u2019s also not subject to the State Ethics Act.\nAs former court administrator Steve Canterbury said during impeachment testimony a few weeks ago, \u201cI think they think they say what the law is. That doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re above it, but they say what it is.\u201d Even the U.S. Supreme Court is held in check by the executive and legislative branches, but the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals thinks itself completely independent. That\u2019s about to change.\nHere is a fun scenario: \u201cWhen sitting as a court of impeachment, the president of the Supreme Court of Appeals, or, if from any cause it be improper for him to act, then any other judge of that court, to be designated by it, shall preside.\u201d\nIf all the sitting Supreme Court justices are being impeached, who is left to appoint someone to preside over impeachment? Apparently Workman believes the acting justice she appointed to fill in for Loughry, Cabell County Circuit Court Justice Paul Farrell, can also sit as acting chief justice during the Senate impeachment trial.\nThere is a problem with this. I don\u2019t know anywhere in this country where the defendant in a court case can appoint the judge overseeing their case. In many cases the judge in a criminal proceeding is picked at random. Workman might have the authority to appoint, but Farrell definitely has a conflict of interest being hand-picked by a justice facing impeachment charges.\nSo, if Farrell shouldn\u2019t sit as acting chief justice, who should? The thought is whoever Gov. Jim Justice appoints to sit in Ketchum\u2019s chair can preside and shouldn\u2019t have a conflict of interest.\nThe problem with that is whoever gets appointed only sits until November, unless that same person also files to run in the special election to fill the remainder of the term until 2020 and wins. It\u2019s just another reason this is all starting to move fast.\nSome also say it\u2019s a conflict of interest for whomever Justice appoints, because the governor could be in the position to appoint more justices should the Senate remove one or more of the current justices from office. The problem is there are no perfect solutions, just solutions that are less bad than others.\nThe plus side is if Justice has to appoint new justices, they\u2019ll be up for special elections in 2020 unless their terms are already up in 2020. Voters would have a say, but it wouldn\u2019t be immediate.",

He returned to the UK immediately afterwards and the next day was back in work.\nHe won his gold medal as part of Britain\u2019s victorious 4 x 400m relay team, held in Antwerp just after the end of the First World War, where he brought the British squad home in the lead at the end of the first leg in a time of 50.6 seconds. Aberystwyth-born Jack Ainsworth-Davis was also in the team. Griffiths was originally selected for the individual 400m but had to drop out due to illness and Ainsworth-Davis took his place finishing fifth behind British based South African, Bevil Rudd who won in 49.6, a time that Griffiths was easily capable of achieving, especially when you consider his performance in the following year\u2019s Welsh Championships where he won the 440 yards in a Welsh record 49.8 secs.\nCecil Griffiths really was an astonishing athlete. His Welsh 440 yards record set when winning that 1921 Welsh title at Barry Island stood for a remarkable 32 years. Converted to 400m this performance is worth 49.5 and he recorded this time on a 330 yards bumpy grass track in Barry almost a century ago! The time would have been good enough to win the 2012 Welsh title \u2013 that\u2019s how extraordinary Cecil Griffiths was. D.J.P Richards, writing in the History of the Welsh AAA in 1956 says of Griffiths: \u201c\u2026he is lightly built, but possesses an easiness of style that makes it appear as though he is blessed with boundless energy\u2026\u201d\nHe was a finalist at the AAA (UK) championships at either 440 yards or 880 yards for a remarkable nine successive years. This is an achievement that very few athletes have achieved. He won the half mile twice in 1923 and 1925; and finished third over 440 yards three times between 1919 and 1921. In 1919 he was only 19.\nHis finest race came in the 1926 AAA 880 yards when placing third in the epic race between Otto Peltzer of Germany and the double Olympic Champion (1924/1928) Douglas Lowe of Britain, which the German won in a UK all-comers record of 1:51.6. Lowe finished just three yards behind in an estimated time of 1:52.0, which was by far the fastest ever time recorded by a British athlete over the distance. Only winner\u2019s times were recorded in those days, but a realistic estimate of Cecil\u2019s time was 1:53.1 and this stood as unassailable to other Welsh athletes until the arrival on the scene of Empire Games mile champions Reg Thomas and Jim Alford in the 1930\u2019s\nIn Fallowfield, Manchester in 1924 and 1925, he produced two brilliant performances winning the 880 yards handicap off scratch in 1:54.6 on each occasion. For some unknown reason, his winning time in 1924 was never ratified as a British record.\nAt the time only performances set in Britain were recognised as British records, and his 1:54.6 in 1924 should have been recorded as equalling the ancient British record of Francis Cross set in 1888 and the time recorded by Henry Stallard in winning the AAA title a few weeks earlier. Herbert Workman also ran 1:54.6 in 1901, but this was set in Montreal so couldn\u2019t be ratified as an official record as it was set outside the UK.\nSo it remains a mystery as to why the performance was never recognised. One initial theory was that as the time was set in a handicap race it couldn\u2019t be ratified. But this theory can be disproved as his great friend, Albert Hill\u2019s British time in Glasgow was ratified as equalling Joe Binks\u2019 1902 World and British (amateur) record after being set in a handicap race in 1919 (4:16.8). See the Evolution of British All-Time 880 yards Performances 1882-1940 at the end of this pen portrait.\nA report in the News of The World of the 1924 Manchester race by Binks said that: \"Griffiths has a beautiful action and in the last quarter showed tremendous speed. He managed to overtake his opponents in the last 10 yards\".\nGriffiths won ten Welsh titles in all, including five successive 440 yards titles between 1920 and 1924, and four half mile wins in 1922-24 and again in 1927. To underline his versatility, he also took the 220 yards title in 1921 on the same day that he won the 440 yards title in that Welsh record of 49.8. His wins in 1922 and 1923 came on the hallowed turf of Cardiff Arms Park.\nWe all remember Eric Liddell of Chariots of Fire fame who won the 400m in the 1924 Paris Olympics after refusing to run in the 100m as the heats were due to be held on a Sunday. But Cecil Griffiths was one of Britain\u2019s top 400m runners at the time and should have been in Paris to challenge for the gold.\nHowever, it was discovered by the AAA at the time of the team selection that he had unwittingly accepted a small prize seven years earlier as a 17 year-old whilst still living in Neath. Although reinstated by the AAA he was banned from international competition by the IAAF. John Hanna, the husband of Griffiths\u2019 granddaughter, who is writing a biography of Griffiths, said that the AAA recorded in their committee meeting of 6 May 1924 that Cecil would not be selected for the Olympic Games team. This presumably was because of an IAAF ruling in 1923 which disqualified him from selection due to the breach of amateur rules back in 1917. John Hanna says that the reason for the IAAF ruling delay was a lengthy dispute involving member countries about the reinstatement as amateurs of professional athletes.\nThink about it: if Cecil had been selected to run in Paris in 1924, Eric Liddell may not have been given a place in the 400m \u2026\u2026if that had have happened there would not have been a \u201cChariots of Fire\u201d movie and no academy awards!\nWhat is surprising, and further indication of his talent, is that in Stockholm later in 1924, despite the IAAF ban on international competition, he broke the British record for 1,000 metres when finishing second in 2:33.6 to world record holder Sven Lundgren of Sweden. Lundgren had finished fifth in the 1920 Antwerp Olympic 1,500. So what ban?\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.more mystery!\nHe lowered his 1,000m British best to 2:31.8 at Stamford Bridge the following year, to bring his British best tally to three.\nThe IAAF could not have been aware of his 1917 misdemeanour in 1921 as he took part in England\u2019s first recorded international match, against France in Paris. He finished second in the 400 and was part of England\u2019s winning medley relay team. In the return fixture at Stamford Bridge in 1922 he won the 400m in 50.8 and finished second behind teammate Edgar Mountain in the 800. He returned to Paris the year before his non selection for the 1924 Olympic team winning the 800 in 1:57.0 and finishing third in the 400\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026. Who would be an athletics historian!\nAt the time, the regions of Wales were part of the various English Counties and this was probably the reason Griffiths ran for England \u2013 although having been a member of Surrey AC since his move over the border aged 18 may have qualified him to run. This strange governance situation was why Reg Thomas won the mile for England in the 1930 Empire Games. This situation prevailed until Wales, in the athletics sense, won home rule in 1948 with the formation of the Welsh AAA. However, a Welsh Commonwealth Games Council was formed in time for Wales to compete as a nation for the first time in the 1934 White City Empire Games, allowing Jim Alford to win his mile title in 1938 in the colours of Wales.\nCecil Griffiths died in 1945 of heart failure at the tragically young age of 45 on Golder\u2019s Green Tube Station leaving a widow and two sons.\nHe is the very first person to be inducted into the Welsh Athletics Hall of Fame on a posthumous basis \u2013 such is the stature of this athlete. He truly is one of the all-time greats of Welsh athletics.\nNote: Griffiths\u2019 full name, date of birth and date of death have been previously reported incorrectly.\nClive Williams, 2011, updated 2013.\nWith thanks to John Hanna, Bob Phillips, Peter Matthews and David Thurlow.\nEvolution of British All-Time 880 yards Performances 1882-1940\nFrancis Cross\nHerbert Workman\nLondon, Stamford Bridge\nCambridge, Mass, USA\nSydney Wooderson\nLondon, Motspur Park\n* Handicap race won off scratch\nNote: Douglas Lowe finished 2nd in the AAA Champs 1926, 3 yards down on Peltzer\u2019s 1:51.6 so must have run around 1:52.0.Griffiths\u2019 estimated time in 3rd place was 1:53.1.

        "raw_content": "Doug and I met while taking time off from school, living in St. Paul, Minnesota. When we met it was an instant connection and we decided to leave the cold winters of Minnesota and head to Sunny Colorado. We moved to Denver in 2006 and have been building our lives here ever since.\nIt wasn\u2019t until the summer of 2010 that Doug decided to make the big step and ask me to marry him. He had it all planned out; it was fourth of July weekend and we had a weekend getaway planned in Beaver Creek, CO. We were all set to go up to the mountains, except for one thing, the ring that Doug had made back in his home town in Illinois didn\u2019t make it. I, of course, had no idea the amount of stress and worry that Doug was experiencing while we were driving up to the mountains. Miraculously, Doug\u2019s brother who also was the best man in the wedding, found the ring in a downtown Chicago post office, where he was able to somehow talk them into giving him the ring and within hours he was on a plane from Chicago to Denver to deliver the ring to his big brother! The ring was delivered in the middle of the night as I slept and I had absolutely no idea that any of this was happening. The next day, Doug proposed at Beaver Lake up on top of Beaver Creek Mountain. It was perfect!\nAfter the ring fiasco, Doug and I both decided we wanted someone local and someone we could trust to help us pick out our wedding bands. Williams Jewelers has been everything we wanted and more for our choice of jewelers! We were working with Laurel, who was such a pleasure and she helped put us at ease through the whole process. She was a great listener and very helpful as Doug and I began our process to decide on our bands. Laurel gently and professionally guided us through this process and helped us to create a custom wedding band that fits perfectly with my engagement ring. I couldn\u2019t be happier with the end result; our rings are beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Williams Jewelers was professional, caring and provided us with excellent service!\n\u2190 David & Sierra Taylor & Holly \u2192",

But General Dwight Eisenhower demanded complete surrender of all German forces, those fighting in the East as well as in the West. If this demand was not met, Eisenhower was prepared to seal off the Western front, preventing Germans from fleeing to the West in order to surrender, thereby leaving them in the hands of the enveloping Soviet forces. Jodl radioed Grand Admiral Karl Donitz, Hitler's successor, with the terms. Donitz ordered him to sign. So with Russian General Ivan Susloparov and French General Francois Sevez signing as witnesses, and General Walter Bedell Smith, Ike's chief of staff, signing for the Allied Expeditionary Force, Germany was-at least on paper-defeated. Fighting would still go on in the East for almost another day. But the war in the West was over.\nSince General Susloparov did not have explicit permission from Soviet Premier Stalin to sign the surrender papers, even as a witness, he was quickly hustled back East-into the hands of the Soviet secret police, never to be heard from again. Alfred Jodl, who was wounded in the assassination attempt on Hitler on July 20, 1944, would be found guilty of war crimes (which included the shooting of hostages) at Nuremberg and hanged on October 16, 1946-then granted a pardon, posthumously, in 1953, after a German appeals court found Jodl not guilty of breaking international law.",

Nineteen panzer divisions, 3,000 tanks, 2,500 aircraft, and 7,000 artillery pieces pour across a thousand-mile front as Hitler goes to war on a second front.\nDespite the fact that Germany and Russia had signed a \"pact\" in 1939, each guaranteeing the other a specific region of influence without interference from the other, suspicion remained high. When the Soviet Union invaded Rumania in 1940, Hitler saw a threat to his Balkan oil supply. He immediately responded by moving two armored and 10 infantry divisions into Poland, posing a counterthreat to Russia. But what began as a defensive move turned into a plan for a German first-strike. Despite warnings from his advisers that Germany could not fight the war on two fronts (as Germany's experience in World War I proved), Hitler became convinced that England was holding out against German assaults, refusing to surrender, because it had struck a secret deal with Russia. Fearing he would be \"strangled\" from the East and the West, he created, in December 1940, \"Directive No. 21: Case Barbarossa\"--the plan to invade and occupy the very nation he had actually asked to join the Axis only amonth before!\nOn June 22, 1941, having postponed the invasion of Russia after Italy's attack on Greece forced Hitler to bail out his struggling ally in order to keep the Allies from gaining a foothold in the Balkans, three German army groups struck Russia hard by surprise. The Russian army was larger than German intelligence had anticipated, but they were demobilized. Stalin had shrugged off warnings from his own advisers, even Winston Churchill himself, that a German attack was imminent. (Although Hitler had telegraphed his territorial designs on Russia as early as 1925--in his autobiography, Mein Kampf.) By the end of the first day of the invasion, the German air force had destroyed more than 1,000 Soviet aircraft. And despite the toughness of the Russian troops, and the number of tanks and other armaments at their disposal, the Red Army was disorganized, enabling the Germans to penetrate up to 300 miles into Russian territory within the next few days.\nExactly 129 years and one day before Operation Barbarossa, another \"dictator\" foreign to the country he controlled, invaded Russia--making it all the way to the capital. But despite this early success, Napoleon would be escorted back to France--by Russian troops.",

Douglas MacArthur, who was preparing to invade the Philippines. The cost in American lives would prove historic.\nThe Palaus, part of the Caroline Islands, were among the mandated islands taken from Germany and given to Japan as one of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles at the close of World War I. The U.S. military lacked familiarity with the islands, and Adm. William Halsey argued against Operation Stalemate, which included the Army invasion of Morotai in the Dutch East Indies, believing that MacArthur would meet minimal resistance in the Philippines, therefore making this operation unnecessary, especially given the risks involved.\nPeleliu was subject to pre-invasion bombardment, but it proved of little consequence. The Japanese defenders of the island were buried too deep in the jungle, and the target intelligence given the Americans was faulty. Upon landing, the Marines met little immediate resistance-but that was a ploy. Shortly thereafter, Japanese machine guns opened fire, knocking out more than two dozen landing craft. Japanese tanks and troops followed, as the startled 1st and 5th Marine regiments fought for their lives. Jungle caves disgorged even more Japanese soldiers. Within one week of the invasion, the Marines lost 4,000 men. By the time it was all over, that number would surpass 9,000. The Japanese lost more than 13,000 men. Flamethrowers and bombs finally subdued the island for the Americans-but it all proved pointless. MacArthur invaded the Philippines without need of Army or Marine protection from either Peleliu or Morotai.",

The council receives money when a development takes place to fund essential local community requirements such as roads, schools and libraries. Frustration with lack of information about this money led to Lib Dem questions at last night\u2019s Wokingham Borough Council meeting.\nCllr Dee Tomlin (Twyford Ward) is angry \u201cI was horrified to discover that in just the small part of the Borough we asked about, there is \u00a31M sitting in the coffers doing nothing. How can this have happened? Our communities are crying out for things like a library in Twyford and public toilets in Woodley. The Conservatives are always using the excuse that they haven\u2019t got any money and yet here we have \u00a31million that could have been used and hasn\u2019t been. That\u2019s \u00a31million in five council wards. There are 25 wards in the Borough altogether so the Conservatives could be holding onto as much as \u00a35million in total that is meant to be used to benefit our communities.\u201d\nCllr Tom McCann (Loddon Ward) said \u201cThis is information that should be available to the public and at the moment it is not. There are things that our communities clearly need and it is only because the Lib Dems have demanded answers that the public can now see there is money to pay for some of them. And it\u2019s just not good enough that the Conservatives have been sitting on the money for so long. The Liberal Democrats will continue to push on this issue and we won\u2019t let the Conservatives off the hook.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "When Old School Yoga Meets Western Yoga\nEver wonder why there is a different variety of yoga practices? Basically, different practices depend on different approaches when it comes to doing the craft. Since there are different types of yoga, some do more chants, some are more focused on stretches, some on the other hand are focused more on the core, and some others are depending on other factors, specifications, or custom practices. The art of yoga is a beauty that is very diverse. Diverse in a sense that it has its own individuality. Some old techniques are adopted and given a new twist, one of which is called Power Yoga.\nPower Yoga is a form of yoga that follows the ashtanga yoga practice in a very fast paced manner. It was dubbed in the 1990\u2019s and what we also call \u201cgym yoga\u201d. This type of yoga focuses more on power, a swift and fast paced type of workout to rejuvenate you and at the same time, give you that relief and relaxing feeling. This type of yoga is a slight deviation from the gentle stretching, meditation, and slow paced yoga. But in addition to the effects of traditional yoga, this type of yoga packs a more energizing, but at the same time soothing feeling after. Here are a few characteristics of Power Yoga:\nFaster than the usual pace\nIf you compare Power Yoga to your more traditional Yoga practice, the latter is basically more relaxed, and at a slower pace, Power yoga on the other hand has a faster pace where you move in a series of poses which creates faster rhythm and an intense workout.\nAshtanga redefined\nThe roots of Power Yoga are the so called Ashtanga which is meant to be the \u201calignment and movement of breath\u201d. This has been a classical Indian yoga which now takes on a modern form. Ashtanga transforms static flow to dynamic, which has a big factor concerning breathing.\nPower Yoga focuses on the core which is a great intense training and meditation. Since it is more concerned with lifts, poses, and breathing, you will definitely feel the burning sweat flow through your head and would get your body to feel that burn.\nEndorphins Alive\nSince Power Yoga is a fast paced, dynamic fusion, rhythmic, and modern workout, it of course tends to release endorphins or what we call an \u201cendorphin rush\u201d. Most yoga classes make you feel very relaxed after, in comparison to power yoga, the latter gives you the same feeling of relaxation plus the total workout experience where you get to feel more energized after finishing.\nDefinitely, if you are the type of person who likes to add a little more flavor or deviate from the norm. This type of yoga is one of the options for you. Not to mention that it strenghtens the core, relaxes and gives you that rejuvenated feeling, at the same time gets you energized and leaves you that feeling of the burn in your body.",

The film shows all this in massive and epic pictures until the very end where he tears down the wall and breaks free.\nYou are watching Pink Floyd The Wall (1982) online free full at watchcartoonsonline.eu.\nLiberty\u2019s Kids: Est. 1776 (2002\u201320...\nThis Is America, Charlie Brown (1988-1989)\nHeaven`s Memo Pad (2011\u2013 )",

        "title": "Book Babe: Rock With Wings by Anne Hillerman",
        "raw_content": "I'm one of those people who continues to read a series that's been taken over by another writer after the death of the original author if I liked the series. I sometimes think that the new writer is an improvement.\nAnne Hillerman, the daughter of Tony Hillerman, is an improvement when she writes the perspective of Jim Chee's wife, Bernadette Manuelito. Bernie, as everyone calls her, is a Navajo Tribal Police officer like her husband. As a feminist, I'm always hoping to see a woman officer being portrayed as the equal of male officers in police procedurals. Most police procedurals have male protagonists. That's why I've been pleased by Anne Hillerman's primary focus on Bernie's perspective.\nOne of the problems that I had with this book is that it seemed to me that Chief Largo was deliberately giving Bernie minor cases while Jim Chee got the high profile action. I think that the Chief was trying to protect Bernie, but she ended up in a dangerous situation anyway and acquitted herself well. So Anne Hillerman was really showing that Bernie could handle danger, but I was impatient with all the minor cases that got piled on Bernie.\nI also disliked the fact that Anne Hillerman felt the need to pander to the popularity of zombies. The case that Jim Chee was investigating involved all sorts of illegalities surrounding the making of a zombie movie in Monument Valley.\nThe associate producer of this movie philosophizes about horror movies saying that \"When things go haywire, it's nice to have something to blame that's out of our control.\" He thinks this explains the popularity of horror movies. I've always thought that the main appeal of horror is the demonizing of difference. Horror makes it OK to hate beings who are different because in horror they're always monsters. I'm absolutely not a fan of the genre.\nSo Anne Hillerman brings zombies into Navajo country. Traditional Navajos would consider zombies a type of chindi. Chindis are the spirits of the dead. The traditional Navajo fear them, consider anything that has been touched or associated with the dead polluted, and avoid mentioning the names of any dead individuals. In the Navajo religion, it's believed that mentioning the names of dead people summons their chindis. I would have thought that there would have been some objection from traditional Navajos to the theme of the movie, but apparently the money that the film industry brings is too good to pass up. When Chee discovers a grave in Monument Valley which would pollute it with actual chindis (rather than fictional ones), that does become a matter of deep concern to Navajo authorities.\nBernie's most important case ,which started out with her pulling over a speeding motorist, turned out to deal with solar energy. I'm not sure about the politics of this author on the subject of climate change, but this novel surrounds the solar industry and the use of solar power on the Navajo reservation with all sorts of negativity. There are extremely unscrupulous individuals using coercion to get people signed up for the installation of solar panels on their property. There are malfunctioning solar panels and a Navajo elder who objects to solar panels. He is coming from the perspective of someone who has never had electricity in his home. This character believes that part of hozho, which is the Navajo concept of harmony, involves living in a natural way. He gets up at dawn and goes to bed when it becomes dark. According to this outlook, people who incorporate artificial light in their lifestyle are living out of balance with nature. It's an interesting viewpoint, but in my opinion those of us who want to continue utilizing artificial light really need to find a clean renewable source of energy like solar. I find it troubling that in Rock With Wings the only characters who talk about the benefits of solar energy should be indicted.\nI'm interested in reading about opinions other than my own, but my idea of balance is that ideally all perspectives should be fairly represented in both fiction and real life.\nRock With Wings contains some moments of wonderful characterization and deals with one of my favorite American landscapes, but I'd rather not read about zombie movies. I'd also prefer to see a more even-handed presentation of the issue of solar energy.\nLabels: Book Reviews, Chindi, Female Police Officers, Horror Movies, Hozho, Monument Valley, Mysteries, Navajos, Police Procedurals, Solar Power, Zombies\nYou might qualify for a new government solar rebate program.",

These personal injury claims typically arise when a person slips or trips and falls and gets injured, on someone else\u2019s property. They are also referred to as occupier\u2019s liability claims. We help injury victims in Leduc, Camrose, Cochrane, and many other cities in the surrounding areas that have been injured because of another person\u2019s negligence.\nWhat do we mean by Slip and Fall Accidents?\nAs the name implies, these accidents result in injuries that usually involve slipping on ice, snow, water, and any other environment that can be deemed as being unsafe. The more common injuries that occur include:\nAny time you fall and injure yourself, the first thing you need to consider is your personal health and safety. Once you have left the area where you slipped and fell, you need to get medical attention immediately as you may not know how serious your injuries are. Once you have done that, call the BLPC AB Personal Injury Lawyer firm and schedule a FREE consultation to evaluate your claim and determine what it\u2019s worth.\nRequirements for filing a Personal Injury Claim\nAccording to Alberta Provincial Law, property owners and managers are responsible for keeping public areas safe for those people entering and using them. Whether it is a commercial or retail business, industrial property, municipally owned property, private property, or residential property, it doesn\u2019t matter. According to common law and the Occupier\u2019s Liability Act, the person responsible for the property has a certain duty of care to those people who visit it.\nSlip and fall personal injury claims arise when the buildings or the land they are erected on lack the adequate and proper maintenance, repair, and upkeep required. This also applies to protecting individuals from dangerous or hazardous conditions. With respect to the liability involved, the BLPC AB Personal Injury Lawyer team knows what to look for when representing the client. In addition to maximizing the compensation in your claim, we will ensure that your rights are protected throughout the legal process.\nIn many instances, the owner or manager of the property could be liable for your injuries, but in order to prove that they are liable, you and your BLPC AB Personal Injury Lawyer must provide evidence that:\nThe property owner or person responsible knew or should have known about the hazard or dangerous condition that existed\nThe property owner or person responsible failed to correct it or make the necessary adjustments required\nThe injury victim (plaintiff) was acting as expected in a reasonable manner when they sustained their injuries\nWhile the frequency of slip and fall accidents throughout Alberta Province increases during the winter months, these types of mishaps can occur anywhere and at any time of the year.

        "raw_content": "Chances are you\u2019ve already heard about online tutoring, but aren\u2019t really sure if it is the right option for your child. After all, you may be asking yourself the question: how can my child learn without a tutor to help them in-person?\nWhile this may be a serious concern for many parents, research suggests that online tutors can be just as effective as traditional tutors. In fact, technology can actually promote your child\u2019s interest and study habits \u2013 generating better results and boosting your student\u2019s performance. Each school year, thousands of families are making the switch and finding that online tutors are more than just an alternative, but their preferred tutoring option.\nAt Above the Mark Learning, we have listed ten advantages for an online learning service.\nAn online tutor is flexible enough to schedule meetings whenever you have time. Extra tutoring \u2013 like before a big test \u2013 can be easily worked out with an online tutor.\nFrom math and science to language arts and history, you can find an online tutor with the specific qualifications and skills for your child \u2013 no matter where you live.\nOnline tutors do not have to spend the time and gas money traveling to their office or your home. Online tutors also face enormous competition and must continually drive their rates down to stay competitive with hundreds of other sites. Online tutors are almost always less costly than a classroom or in-person tutor. This does not mean that quality is ever being compromised, though!\nToday\u2019s classroom is vastly different than those ten or fifteen years ago. School districts across the country have realized that when kids use computers in class, they become more engaged and attentive. Technology can actually encourage students to learn. Your child is also learning valuable computer skills every time they log into an online lesson.\nWith an Online tutor, the student is learning the same material without ever leaving the comfort of home. When the student and tutor are both in a stress-free environment, a relaxed educational experience prevails that is conducive to learning and thoroughly understanding the material.\nOnline tutoring uses live, one-on-one interaction with a student to accomplish study goals. The separation of a screen does not mean that the lesson is any less effective or that your child is not receiving the deserved attention. A live, online tutor can answer the same questions and provide the same help for any subject as a face-to-face tutor.\nDuring a live tutoring session, a student has access to a wealth of online and computer resources. Graphing calculators, diagrams, maps, and other educational tools are just a few clicks away. An online tutor can effortlessly share important study material without ever having to leave the computer.\nFor a student with a learning disability, it is easy to find an online tutor with such skills. Online tutors can develop a personalized approach for any student \u2013 utilizing the latest technology and teaching strategies. Online tutors use individualized, results-driven lesson plans to meet your child\u2019s unique goals.\nUnlike the mountains of paperwork your child receives at school, online tutors cut down on unnecessary clutter. Important assignments or lessons can be easily shared online to save paper and keep all assignments organized in a digital format. With an online tutor, a student\u2019s week-to-week progress can be easily followed with online charts and data, too.\nWhile this may not seem like an important factor, this may be the biggest advantage of an online tutor. Simply put, students do better when they enjoy what they are learning. If your child likes using the computer, then an online tutor can make learning fun and exciting with games and interactive activities. Teaching your student to learn and have fun at the same time builds confidence and promotes a future of successful studies",

        "raw_content": "Stop Disparaging Dads Immediately\n10 Things We Need To Stop Saying About Dads Immediately | Romper As a mother, I\u2019ve admittedly grown tired of the conversation surrounding or describing fatherhood; so, I can\u2019t imagine how you fellas feel. We\u2019ve become so accustomed to talking about fathers as secondary parents. We praise them for doing even things that are the most basic as far as what is required of parents, while simultaneously downplaying their importance in kids\u2019 lives, as well as the value of their love and involvement.\nThanks to a society plagued by sexism and misogyny that teaches men to suppress their feelings and avoid all emotions, men (and plenty of women) talk about fatherhood like it\u2019s a joke: Fathers are so funny in their failures when they try to \u201cbe like mom,\u201d and fathers are just so silly, trying to be parents when it\u2019s clearly not something they\u2019re \u201cprogrammed\u201d to be. It\u2019s disheartening, to say the least. It puts an unfair burden on women to do most of the parenting and handle most of the responsibility, while also telling men that their non-monetary parenting contributions simply do not matter as much, are not as required, and when they do occur (and when they\u2019re magically without tragic, endearing dad-flaw), they are worthy of a parade that moms never get for doing the same stuff all the time.\nBut the truth is, fathers are just as capable of being outstanding parents as mothers are. Fathers are just as devoted and involved, and more and more men are becoming stay-at-home fathers, so the cultural \u201cnorm\u201d is changing in a way that other generations have never seen. Furthermore, the elaborate gold stars we give dads simply for being involved parents are not only offensive to moms, and not only perpetuating of problematic ideas about gender roles, but they are offensive to dads; they\u2019re ultimately saying, \u201cWow, you\u2019re doing something that is totally not what a \u201cman\u201d does \u2014 how cool for you!\u201d Like, what guy wants to hear that? Let\u2019s just let all of that \u201cgood dad\u201d stuff be considered \u201cnormal parenting\u201d stuff, and do away with the celebrations whenever a dude-parent does some of it, and see how it works to everyone\u2019s benefit.\nAs our culture continues to change, so should the way we speak about fathers. With that in mind, here are 10 things we need to stop saying about dads:\nThey\u2019re Glorified Babysitters\nAll too often, when a mother is seen without her kid(s), she\u2019ll hear, \u201cOh, is dad babysitting?\u201d Well, no. No, he\u2019s not babysitting because he\u2019s the dad. He\u2019s parenting.\nWhen we tell fathers that being a father is more like babysitting than being a parent, we\u2019re diminishing their role in their children\u2019s lives, while simultaneously encouraging passive behavior. A babysitter is paid for their efforts, and are only responsible for a kid(s), for a few hours. That doesn\u2019t sound like parenting to me.\nThey Don\u2019t Have The \u201cParenting Gene\u201c\nFirst of all, what exactly is the \u201cparenting gene\u201d? Scientists have yet to find a genetic link to a person\u2019s urge or choice to become a parent. And while scientists believe genes could play a role in how a person parents, they\u2019ve yet to find conclusive evidence that suggest that genes have a direct influence, instead attributing most parenting choices to how that parent was raised themselves. Environment (aka, our society and its culture) is a massive influence on our parenting choices: We either adhere to cultural norms, or consciously go against them.\nIn other words, the gender of an individual does not determine how involved or uninvolved a parent will be in their kid\u2019s life. There\u2019s nothing fundamentally flawed, wrong, or genetically predetermined in a father that makes them less likely to change a diaper, feed a baby, or any other task that comes along with parenthood. That is all entirely something we\u2019ve taught or selves to expect (or rather, in some cases, not expect).\nThey Have To Learn How To Be A Parent; Moms Just \u201cKnow\u201d How\nThe idea that a woman is always a mother without a baby (until she has a baby), but a man is just a man who has to learn how to be a parent, is laughable at best. I don\u2019t know about you, but I definitely had to learn how to be a mom. In fact, I\u2019m still learning. While there are some maternal instincts at play, I\u2019m still filled with doubt, making plenty of mistakes and relying on the knowledge and wisdom of others. My partner isn\u2019t any less knowledgeable about parenthood than I am, and even if he was, it wouldn\u2019t be because of his gender.\nThey\u2019re Not As Emotional\nI\u2019m still shocked that this fallacious idea about men still exists. I mean, haven\u2019t you all seen the crying Jordan meme?! Men are just as capable of experiencing feelings as women, and I can\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve witnessed my partner become emotional, whether it was during the birth of our son, taking him to the hospital, the first time he walked, and numerous moments in between.\nIf you haven\u2019t seen your male partner cry or express emotions, it\u2019s not because he doesn\u2019t feel them. It\u2019s more likely because our society has convinced men that certain emotions make them weak (or maybe he, as a single individual, just isn\u2019t prone to showing emotions in an outwardly visible way, a characteristic that shouldn\u2019t be broadly applied to men as a whole). Many individuals who identify as male are conditioned to suppress their emotions for fear they will be judged. The feelings are there, they\u2019ve just been taught not to express them.\nThey\u2019re Inept Mistake-Makers\nUnfortunately, it seems that our culture loves making fun of fathers and their perceived/imagined/projected/created ineptitude about parenting. You\u2019ll hear someone say, \u201cOh my, looks like dad dressed the baby!\u201d or see a picture of a disheveled house and a wayward kid, with a caption like, \u201cThis is what happens when dad is in charge.\u201d Can it be funny? Sure, I guess? Humor is subjective, and all that jazz. But it\u2019s all mostly just a backhanded way of saying that dads have no idea what they\u2019re doing ever, and they\u2019re pathetic in their attempts to parent. Not only does it downplay a father\u2019s role, it simultaneously shifts responsibility \u2014 not to mention, ability \u2014 solely on the mother. Plus, it\u2019s not like mothers never, ever make mistakes.\nThey Need To Be Trained\nDads are people, not dogs. Most, if not all, parents need training in one form or another: Moms-to-be go to birthing classes so they can prepare their minds and bodies for birth; Many women are counseled by a lactation consultant so they can learn how to successfully breastfeed; Parents are trained in how to properly secure a car seat, how to give a baby CPR, and how to take care of a rash\u2026 Everyone is learning, not just fathers.\nEngaged Fathers Are Playing \u201cMr. Mom\u201d\nEngaged fathers are being engaged fathers, just like engaged mothers are being engaged mothers. Not only is the \u201cMr. Mom\u201d title offensive, it reinforces outdated gender stereotypes where the woman is the primary parent and the man goes out into the world to make money and do manly, worldly things. Enough already.\nThey\u2019re Secondary Parents\nThanks to a misogynistic culture that has created a set of behaviors used to reinforce or define gender, men are still considered \u201cless than\u201d parents. If a child only has one involved parent, it\u2019s best that it\u2019s the mother (because they need their mother more than they need their father). But the truth is, according to CNN and Pew Reserach Center, \u201cThe number of stay-at-home dads has doubled since 1989, to 2 million in 2012. Single-father homes are also on the rise: 8% of homes are now headed by a single father, up from 1% in 1960.\u201d\nBecause of this cultural shift, a study conducted by the Scientists from Bar Ilan University in Israel shows that, \u201cbrains of dads who are highly engaged in their infants\u2019 lives are activated in the same way mothers\u2019 brains are during pregnancy.\u201d\nBasically, if two people are equally engaged in their kid\u2019s life, there\u2019s no such thing as a \u201csecondary parent.\u201d\nThey\u2019re Brave or \u201cAmazing\u201d If They\u2019re Involved\nWhen we constantly praise fathers for doing what can only be described as normal parenting behavior, we\u2019re reinforcing the idea that being a parent is more of the mother\u2019s job than it is the father\u2019s. The dad is \u201cjust helping,\u201d and wow! How kind of him to lend a hand!\nWhile it\u2019s healthy to thank your partner for tag-teaming parenthood with you, there\u2019s no need to constantly (or publicly) praise a dad for simply being a dad.\nTheir Love Is Secondary\nCaring fathers do not love their kid less than a mother does, especially not just because they\u2019re a father. A father doesn\u2019t have some love-blocker hidden away in his DNA that forces him to disconnect with his kids. Someone\u2019s gender doesn\u2019t dictate how they love or how much love they have to give. If a father isn\u2019t involved or as caring, it\u2019s because he\u2019s making that choice (along with many other factors, because life is complicated and it\u2019s difficult to know exactly why people do what they do), not because he\u2019s genetically wired to care less.\nAs a mother, I\u2019ve admittedly grown tired of the conversation surrounding or describing fatherhood; so, I can\u2019t imagine how you fellas feel. We\u2019ve become so accustomed to talking about fathers as secondary parents. We praise them for doing even things that are the most basic as far as what is\nSource: 10 Things We Need To Stop Saying About Dads Immediately | Romper\nIs Single Parenthood the New Norm?\nWhy More Dads Are Staying At Home With The Kids\nWhich is worse?

The approval process saw a week-long visit of a high level delegation of the Bar Council of India to Limerick in August 2017. During this visit, the delegation meet with staff and students of the School of Law as well as with key stakeholders and representatives of the wider University, including the President of UL and senior staff from the Library, Language Centre, International Education Division, Writing Centre etc. The recognition process was co-ordinated by Dr Kathryn O\u2019Sullivan, School of Law.\nThis is another great endorsement \u2013 at an international level \u2013 of the law programmes delivered by the School of Law and will ensure\u2026\nHow To Keep In Touch With Friends From Home\nYou meet so many amazing new people in college, between groups and societies, housemates and course-mates, you will end up making a whole group of new friends! This is great but we don\u2019t want to lose our old friends from home too.\nA lot of people worry about keeping in touch with their friends from home when they go off to college. Although it isn\u2019t just when people first head to college that they lose contact with old friends, it can happen gradually throughout college.\nLong distance friendships are work and usually it won\u2019t take much to keep in contact. We all have social media platforms now that make us feel like we know exactly what\u2019s going on in people\u2019s lives and our friends are just a tap away. But nothing beats meeting in person and sometimes college life gets so busy that we forget to make time to see people at home.\nHere are some tips to ensure you don\u2019t drift apart from your good home friends:\nThis seems really simple and it is! With our phones, the Internet and social media we can\u2019t make any excuses for not keeping in contact with people. College life is exciting and busy but make sure to check in with each other often. A phone call is a great way of staying up to date with each other\u2019s news. You can also leave each other voice messages on Whatsapp or Facebook, this way you can leave them and listen to them and reply to them when you have a free ten minutes.\nInvite your friend to come stay at your college house and visa versa. Whether you go out to a club, for drinks, for dinner, a walk or watch a movie at home, it doesn\u2019t matter. Visiting the place your friend calls home for 5 days a week will help you grow closer. Now when they complain about their messy housemate you have a face to put with the name. It will help You will no doubt be excited to share this new part of your life with each other.\nPlan Meet Ups\nOften we don\u2019t have a lot of free time at the weekends. If you have a job at home you\u2019ll be lucky to have time to see your family. Then your commute back to college could take up half your Sunday. It\u2019s important to make time to plan your time in advance to see friends. It could be a late movie night when you\u2019re both finished your split shifts or a breakfast date before you set off to college. You\u2019ll be surprised as well at how even a short meeting with your best friend at the weekend can set you up for a good week.\nPlan Something Fun In The Future To Do Together\nThis is really effective at making sure you keep in touch! Plan to do something in the future that you both love. This could be anything from the cinema to see a movie you\u2019re excited about, a concert, a holiday or a nice dinner out. Having something planned to do will keep you connected to each other, it gives you something to talk about and get excited about together. Also if you can\u2019t meet up as often as you\u2019d like it means that when you finally do you will be doing something that you both really enjoy.\n\u2018Making A Murderer\u2019 attorney to lecture UL law students\nThe defence lawyer at the centre of the 2015 Netflix documentary series \u2018Making A Murderer\u2019 will take up a position this month as guest lecturer on University of Limerick\u2019s law programmes.\nAmerican attorney Dean Strang will deliver lectures over six weeks at UL\u2019s School of Law starting on February 10, 2018.\nMr Strang provided legal representation for Steven Avery, twice convicted of murder in Wisconsin, who came to public attention in the Netflix series documenting the overturning of his first conviction and the procedural details of his second.

As a visiting law student from Canada, studying at UL allowed me to familiarize myself with the law of the European Union and the legal traditions of Ireland, topics of which I would not otherwise have been exposed.\nI took both masters and undergraduate courses and found the course selection and quality of instruction\u2026\nJanuary 30, 2018 March 14, 2018 AHSS Students\nLiving with seven boys, has its perks. No I most certainly am not referring to Friends with Benefits here. They aren\u2019t the bickering kind and occasionally help me with carrying my bags home from Aldi. Plus wherever you go, you\u2019ll always have Z+ security, walking you back safely.\nWe are however the chaotic kind, you\u2019d see us all in our tiny living room trying to make dinner and occasionally breaking a few glasses in the process. On some days, you\u2019d find us screaming our lungs out and playing absolutely meaningless games, which they won\u2019t admit but I always win at.\nIn our tiny little house, we\u2019ve had many fun-filled evenings. Singing, dancing and watching trashy films became our little tradition. However one November evening, snuggled up in our respective rooms, we were in a rush to finish our assignments. The Wifi had been down (it was our neighbour\u2019s fault) and to top it all off, house inspection was round the corner. I was just about the edit the most crucial part of my radio podcast when this loud noise almost made me deaf and shook me off my seat.\nI ran into the kitchen to see if our cooking experiments had caused the fire alarm to go off. By now the sound was unbearable, yet I didn\u2019t find any funny business in the kitchen. I quickly grabbed my keys and phone and was about the run down the stairs, when I saw all my boys staring at the fire alarm box, puzzled. I expected them to have a more worried reaction, or the urge to run out and call for help, but they stood there transfixed. Unable to bear the noise anymore I pushed them aside and stepped out in a rush, when one of them called out to me and said, \u2018Could you call someone from the reception?\u2019\nBy the time I came back with a Resident Assistant, the noise had subsided. My extremely capable flatmates, figured out a way to make the noise bearable. Staring at the box, did help after all. However, before I could rejoice the fact that this would all be over soon, the alarm went off again. Forcing us to stand out in the rain, shivering.\nWith Campus Security on their way, we were absolutely curious why the alarm went off in the first place. Turns out, in his quest to make our house tidy and clean, the broom which my flatmate was using to clean the corridor with fell on the Fire Alarm glass causing all the ruckus. Even when we were being responsible, it nearly cost us our hearing capacity. You\u2019ll be happy to know, we now maintain a 4ft distance from the alarm, lest it goes off again, scarred are our minds.\nWarning: Do not try this at home!",

        "raw_content": "There\u2019s currently a huge stink about the so-called \u201cParadise Papers\u201d \u2014 basically, a leak from a law firm called Appleby that specialises in \u201coffshore\u201d activities, detailing the shennanigans of many of its clients.\nUnderstandably, today, there\u2019s a lot of anger in social media, particularly on the left, about the tax evasion and tax avoidance that the BBC\u2019s Panorama current affairs programme detailed in its latest episode. The thing is that a lot of the anger is misplaced, and, to be perfectly blunt about it, a lot of people are being manipulated by politicians greedy for more government cash into thinking that this is about schools or hospitals closing versus tax revenue being collected. Those same politicians don\u2019t mention, of course, that they spend taxpayers\u2019 money on guns, bombs, five star hotels, art for their offices, expensive office furniture and so on. I\u2019m not necessarily opposed to those things, I might add, but they\u2019re a lot less popular with the public than schools and hospitals, and so if you put yourself into the mindset of a politician who would like extra money to spend on his or her personal priorities (which may or may not include a fancy office chair, for instance; or extra \u201ctrade envoys\u201d so their chums can enjoy a few foreign junkets at taxpayers\u2019 expense), you\u2019re always going to play the schools and hospitals card here. You might, if you\u2019re a political leftie, also go on about \u201ccuts\u201d to peoples\u2019 benefits \u2014 regardless of whether or not the current government has cut benefits, some people are likely to be receiving less than they were for whatever reason (rule changes, changes in personal circumstances, etcetera), and those people will suck up your argument, even if it is basically untrue.\nAnother fact that isn\u2019t often mentioned, unless you talk to an economist anyway, is that there\u2019s an underlying assumption that the money would be better used if paid in taxes to government. A case in point here is Apple. I won\u2019t for one moment claim that I think that how Apple currently arranges its tax affairs isn\u2019t anything short of outrageous \u2014 though I have a different view on it to the one being loudly expressed across the Internet today, which I\u2019ll go into below \u2014 but in purely objective terms, the goal here should be to maximise the benefit to citizens, across all measures. So, for instance, one could argue that Apple having a lot of cash benefits millions of people because Apple spends a lot of that money on innovation, and that innovation makes the lives of many millions of people, the world over, better. Yes, it may also enrich Apple shareholders, directors and employees, but I\u2019d argue that\u2019s a much smaller effect. On the other hand, if governments had confiscated it as taxation, it\u2019s quite unlikely they would choose to spend it that way. Yes, some of them might spend some of the money on schools and hospitals, or alleviating homelessness or poverty, but let\u2019s be honest here \u2014 quite a bit of it would instead be spent on things the public isn\u2019t so keen on.\nNote: I\u2019m not trying to defend Apple here. Apple can do that itself. I\u2019m just trying to fill in some of the missing parts of this.\nOn Corporate Taxation\nOn the subject of Corporation Tax, which is what the fuss about Apple is all about, and is also, actually, at the heart of some of the other tax avoidance schemes that we\u2019re talking about here, CT is just a bad tax, pure and simple. The OECD even published a paper about taxation at one point showing that Corporation Tax was the only widely deployed form of taxation that was negatively correlated with growth. It\u2019s also too easy to manipulate, because it\u2019s based on profit calculations \u2014 that is, companies can reduce it by appearing on their profit and loss sheets to have spent money or to have lost money on their assets through depreciation or other kinds of loss. Additional confusion is caused to the public by the fact that companies only exist within the legal jurisdiction in which they were incorporated. In a very real sense, for instance, there is no such company as \u201cApple\u201d. Rather, there is Apple, Inc (which is in the United States), Apple Europe Limited (in the United Kingdom), Apple Operations International (Ireland), Apple Sales International (Ireland), Apple Distribution International (Ireland), as well as a host of other entities. All of them are separate companies, and therefore separate legal entities, though some may hold shares in others and they likely share some directors too. The thing the public thinks of as \u201cApple\u201d is not, in a legal sense, real \u2014 but instead is projected by the actions of a number of co-operating legal entities in various different jurisdictions. You might say this is a sleight of hand, but it\u2019s how the world works because it\u2019s how the laws passed by our politicians work.\nThe upshot of this fact is that it\u2019s possible for (for instance) Apple, Inc to pay money to Apple Operations International, which doesn\u2019t change the amount of money \u201cApple\u201d (the ephemeral thing the public thinks of) has, but does change things for tax purposes because Apple, Inc pays Corporation Tax at the United States rate (high by global standards), while Apple Operations International is taxed in Ireland. Of course, as the Paradise Papers make clear, things are not quite that simple, and some other steps are involved that reduce the Irish tax bill by, basically, paying money to another company in Jersey. But you get the idea.\nNow, you might say, as Donald Trump does, that this is all outrageous, that Apple is a U.S. company, and that the billions it has \u201cstashed away\u201d outside of the United States should have been taxable at 35% in the United States and that Something Must Be Done. Or, you might say, as some here in the United Kingdom do, that Apple makes a lot of money here, but doesn\u2019t seem to pay very much tax here, and so some of those billions are \u201cours\u201d in some sense. But that simply isn\u2019t how the law works.\nNor, and I\u2019m going to be controversial here, is that how we should want it to work. Let me take another example. Imagine you operate a delivery and warehousing company in the United Kingdom, whereby overseas suppliers can pay you to stock goods for them and deliver them to addresses in the United Kingdom. Now imagine that there is a website that sells goods of all types, all shapes and all sizes, and that that website does so in the United Kingdom by hiring your delivery company to hold stock and deliver goods; in other territories they do much the same thing, but with different delivery and warehousing companies. Clearly both the delivery company and the website company will be able to calculate a profit figure (essentially sales minus costs), and so Corporation Tax will be paid at UK rate on the profit made by the delivery company and at some other rate depending on where the website company is incorporated on its profits. Now, let\u2019s say the website company can choose where it incorporates \u2014 after all, it\u2019s a website and the Internet is everywhere. So let\u2019s pick somewhere with low tax rates. Luxembourg, say.\nNow, the delivery and warehousing company is free to charge whatever it pleases. Obviously if it goes too high, it will lose the website company\u2019s business, and if it goes too low, it will lose money and eventually go out of business, so there are limits, both low and high. Moreover, the high limit, according to standard economic theory, will tend towards the low limit as the level of competition increases \u2014 assuming perfect competition, the delivery and warehousing company will be making a profit of \u00a30 on its operations.\nAll of this is fine and dandy, and nobody would question the right of the owners of the distribution company to operate at the lowest possible cost and even to make no profit at all if that\u2019s what they wish to do. It\u2019s their company, and there is no innate requirement that a company run at a profit (they could even choose to fund its operations by constantly shoveling money at it, though that strategy can\u2019t last indefinitely as the owners will eventually run out).\nI\u2019m sure some people can see where I\u2019m going with the situation I just described. So let\u2019s cut to the chase. Let\u2019s call the UK company \u201cAmazon UK Limited\u201d, and let\u2019s call the website company \u201cAmazon EU SARL\u201d. Just, you know, for sake of argument. And since corporate ownership is rarely straightforward, let\u2019s say the two companies share some directors and shareholders. We might even imagine (though this isn\u2019t how it happened in Amazon\u2019s case) that the website company might eventually decide to simply buy the distribution and warehousing company (in which case, the two separate companies still exist \u2014 it\u2019s just that one owns the other). Why does this make it unreasonable for the distribution and warehousing company to run at zero profit all of a sudden? It was fine before I gave them both similar sounding names, and before they had shared directors/shareholders. Why is it suddenly not OK now?\n\u201cNobody would run a business for zero profit\u201d, I hear you say. Are you sure? What about a family business where the owners are employed by the business? Running at zero profit in that case might make sense \u2014 subject to tax legislation not making it much worse to pay salary rather than dividend.\nThe fact is that \u201cmultinational\u201d companies are largely a fiction \u2014 legally speaking, they are really groups of national companies that happen to co-operate for whatever reason, often but probably not always because they have the same (or overlapping) ownership or directors. Each of these separate legal entities is separately taxable, in the jurisdiction in which it exists, on its profits, and there\u2019s little you can do to prevent them from paying one another for services, intellectual property licensing and so on, thereby reducing the profit in one jurisdiction and increasing it in another. There are some rules governing payments between companies with shared ownership, so for instance you can\u2019t have company A sell parts to company B at hugely inflated prices in order to reduce profits at company B and increase them at company A, but of course it\u2019s very difficult to prove a value for intellectual property, especially things like brand names, so this is something of a losing battle for tax authorities as long as corporations\u2019 accountants are on the ball.\nA final nail in the coffin for Corporation Tax is that while the intent is that it should fall on the owners of corporations, in practice some fraction is, for understandable reasons, borne by their customers and employees instead, in the form of higher prices and lower wages respectively.\nWhat should we do instead? Well, CT is a non-starter. It doesn\u2019t work in a globalised world, it isn\u2019t an efficient tax, it\u2019s poorly understood by the public (which causes resentment when they hear that e.g. Amazon isn\u2019t \u201cpaying its fair share\u201d), forces governments to get involved in and to legislate about the calculation of corporations\u2019 profits and is just, in general, not a good idea.\nBut let\u2019s think for a moment; the goal here was to impose a tax on the owners of the corporation. How do those owners benefit from a corporation\u2019s profits? Well, in two ways:\nThrough appreciation in the value of their shares.\nThrough dividend payments and other distributions.\nIn the former case, we tax the rise in value when they sell the shares. Currently in the United Kingdom, this would be covered by Capital Gains Tax, which is levied at a lower rate than Income Tax, which may or may not be desirable (it\u2019s notionally to encourage investment in businesses). We might consider instead taxing at Income Tax rates, but taking into account inflation when calculating the taxable gain, if any.\nIn the latter case, these are often taxed through Income Tax, though presently here in the UK we have some special rules for dividends that make them a little more tax efficient. We could abolish those and instead tax them as ordinary income \u2014 the original justification for the different treatment was that the money had already been subject to Corporation Tax and that taxing it twice was, essentially, double taxation.\nThe elephant in the room here is probably overseas distributions or capital gains, and the solution there is quite straightforward: a withholding tax. So, for instance, if a company pays a dividend to an entity (a person or a company) that is outside of the United Kingdom, a UK company should apply income tax at full rate to that money at source. That tax could then be claimed back by the foreign entity if it can show that it has been taxed on the money. There are variations we could consider (for instance, perhaps at most the amount paid in tax in the foreign jurisdiction could be claimed back, even if the UK payment was higher), but the central idea is that you make it impossible to take the money out without paying some tax on it.\nCorporation Tax is negatively correlated with growth.\nCorporation Tax should fall on the owners (typically shareholders) of corporations, but in practice is partially borne by customers and employees.\nCorporation Tax is based on profits, and as such is easy to manipulate, particularly for \u201cmultinationals\u201d.\nTo try to prevent manipulation, the rules have become increasingly complex in many jurisdictions \u2014 for instance, banning \u201cdepreciation\u201d (here in the UK we have \u201ccapital allowances\u201d instead), attempting to regulate the prices of \u201cintra-company\u201d transfers (i.e. sales between related legal entities) to prevent \u201cprofit-shifting\u201d and so on. This complexity is good for accountants and lawyers, but it\u2019s very bad for smaller businesses (and therefore bad for competition, and thereby consumers) and makes it more likely that loopholes are inadvertently introduced.\nThe notion that businesses will \u201cplay fair\u201d is a nonsense. Big businesses, in particular, have every incentive not to; they have adequate funds and staff to challenge the tax authorities, and the sums involved can be colossal. They can also afford to employ the best and brightest \u2014 wages in public service are typically more restricted, and worse, if someone is really good, business may eventually poach them. On the other hand, small businesses are more likely to play fair because they don\u2019t have those resources and want to concentrate on their business, so treating everyone the same way is likely to be advantageous to big business (whether you\u2019re going to come down hard on everyone or not).\nOn Personal Taxation\nIt is often asserted that it is \u201cimmoral\u201d not to pay your \u201cfair share\u201d of tax. But what is your fair share? Let\u2019s think about that for a moment.\nLet\u2019s start by assuming that we all agree that everyone should pay some tax. Not everyone thinks that, and there are details like whether the very poor should pay any tax at all, but we\u2019ll take it as given that, in principle, we should pay some tax.\nSo, how much tax should you pay? Should it be based on your income? Or on your wealth? What if your income varies substantially from year to year? Is it fair to tax someone who earns \u00a370,000 one year, but will only earn \u00a320,000 the next, in the same way as someone who earns \u00a370,000 every year? What if you have no income but are very wealthy? How does that change if your wealth is illiquid (maybe you own a large country house, or even a small house somewhere expensive like London)? And when we decide what to tax, at what rate should we set the tax? 13%? 35%? 50%? Higher? Should the tax rate increase (or decrease) with the overall amount? Why? Should anyone be exempt from tax for any reason? Should there be an amount you can earn or hold before you start having to pay tax? How should this interact with things like benefits or indeed voting rights?\nMy goal here is to make you think. This isn\u2019t simple. It isn\u2019t like the question of whether you should cheat on your wife (you shouldn\u2019t, in case you\u2019re wondering).\nSo what we\u2019ve chosen to do, at least in most countries, is as follows: we elect people, who form a government. They, in conjunction with some kind of assembly, debate the matter and come up with a set of rules, which they pass as legislation. The legislation answers the above questions, at least as far as that country is concerned.\nThat is, the amount of tax you should pay is defined by the law. If the law says you should only pay \u00a31 in tax, then that is what you should pay. There is no \u201cmoral\u201d case for paying more than that amount. Paying less than that amount is evasion, and that is both illegal and wrong \u2014 because it\u2019s unfair that everyone else has to comply with the law and you don\u2019t.\n\u201cBut tax avoiders\u2026\u201d I hear you say. Well, what is tax avoidance? Tax avoidance is really just where you notice that the law says you could pay less tax than someone else thinks you should. Note: it isn\u2019t paying less tax than you owe; it\u2019s really just where the amount of tax you owe is surprising for some reason. Now, aggressive tax avoidance can involve doing all kinds of things that you wouldn\u2019t ordinarily have done (typically this involves companies owning things that you would normally have owned yourself; loans being made where none were necessary; low tax rate investments like pensions investing in assets you sell to them, and so on), solely to leave you in a position where the law says you owe little or nothing in tax. The UK, in common with other jurisdictions, has passed legislation to prevent that, namely the General Anti-Abuse Rule (or GAAR).\nI\u2019m in two minds about GAAR. On the one hand, I\u2019m not really a fan of aggressive tax avoidance; yes, it\u2019s legal, but I think where it\u2019s obvious that you\u2019re using the law in a manner different to that which Parliament intended, there\u2019s an ethical problem with that. I won\u2019t do it, even sometimes in cases where my accountant is convinced I should. And I\u2019ve been offered avoidance schemes, which I\u2019ve turned down. On the other hand, it essentially amounts to allowing the tax authorities to decide that the law doesn\u2019t matter, and what does matter is their view of how much you should pay. I\u2019m no fan of that either, and while there are checks and balances in place, my view is simple: it\u2019s up to Parliament to get the law right in the first place.\nMuch of the aggressive avoidance is caused by Parliament complicating the tax system for political reasons. There are many examples; my favourite recent example was the legislation passed to make the UK an attractive place to make films. This was intentionally designed to provide tax breaks for investors, but many of the various vehicles that accountants and tax planners constructed to take advantage of the tax break have fallen foul of GAAR, it seems because someone didn\u2019t realise the massive tax advantage they\u2019d handed out. Yes, there were loans involved \u2014 but honestly, that\u2019s quite normal \u2014 if you know you\u2019re going to make a profit on your investment, you might well take out a loan in order to make a bigger investment than you could out of your own capital. The problem here was that in doing that, the investors were entitled to a much larger tax break, and could write off in some cases very large amounts of tax. I don\u2019t think you can really argue that this wasn\u2019t what Parliament intended; if it didn\u2019t intend that, then those responsible for the legislation were spectacularly inept. And, I might add, an unfortunate consequence is that there were many much less wealthy people who became involved and for whom the tax consequences are dire, because the penalties being imposed are based on the total investment, including the money they borrowed, which was often many times the amount they put in themselves. Nor was this \u201cwheeze\u201d failing to result in films \u2014 the vehicles in question were responsible for a number of blockbusters, so the tax break certainly encouraged precisely what the government wanted it to. Basically, I\u2019m no fan of Jimmy Carr, and I wouldn\u2019t have invested in the scheme he did, but I\u2019m a little uneasy about saying that people who did were doing anything other than what Parliament intended.\nBut even simple things like deliberately imposing high marginal rates on \u201cwealthier\u201d individuals create the scope for avoidance. Why? Because you\u2019ve increased the value to those individuals of not paying that money in tax. That can make it worthwhile to do something unusual that wouldn\u2019t ordinarily be viable because of the extra cost \u2014 like paying yourself through a limited company (as, it turned out, even civil servants and BBC staff were doing).\nSo what should we do? Well, the tax system needs to be fair, but we need to recognise that it\u2019s just as unfair to confiscate very large portions of a rich person\u2019s income as it is to do the same to a poorer person, but that, unlike poorer folk, the very rich are in a position to do something about it. Thus, we should resist the \u201csoak the rich\u201d mentality of the hard left, while nevertheless making sure that the matter of calculating the tax that is due is as simple as possible so that there is little room for manoeuvre. So we should also resist the urge of some to craft all kinds of exemptions, special schemes and complicated rules to encourage this and discourage that. Simplification should be the order of the day.\nPersonally I\u2019m in favour of a flat tax at, say, 35%, with a large personal allowance to cover basic living costs, which can be combined with someone else\u2019s so that a household with one person earning \u00a3X pays the same in taxes as a household with two people earning, between them, \u00a3X. At the same time, I\u2019d abolish National Insurance, which is far too complicated and is contributing to the business of people unnecessarily being paid through companies, I\u2019d get rid of Capital Gains Tax as a special case (but allow inflation to be used to reduce gains, and the same on savings in the bank, so that you don\u2019t get taxed on inflation), and I\u2019d get rid of the special treatment of dividends too. Similarly, VCTs, EIS, ISAs and all the other complications, I\u2019d probably look to abolish \u2014 I\u2019d rather people invested because they had money I hadn\u2019t taken off them, instead of investing in order to prevent me taking money away from them which is what those schemes do \u2014 and at the same time I\u2019d be looking carefully at the benefit system to see how it could be reformed (I find the universal basic income to be an interesting suggestion in this area, though I\u2019m not sure how it would work in practice).\n\u201cEvasion\u201d is where you don\u2019t pay the tax the law says you should. That\u2019s wrong, pure and simple.\n\u201cAvoidance\u201d is where the law says you need to pay an amount of tax that somebody finds surpisingly low for some reason. It isn\u2019t illegal, and if something is at fault, it\u2019s the law. You should focus your anger about this on the politicians who get to choose what the law says, not on those people who pay less tax than you think they might otherwise.\nAggressive avoidance is already tackled in many places through a General Anti-Abuse Rule (GAAR). These are problematic, though, because they effectively allow a body to decide that the law itself doesn\u2019t matter as much as their opinion. I\u2019m not a huge fan of GAAR overall \u2014 I\u2019d rather the underlying law didn\u2019t provide opportunities that create a need for it.\nIf someone starts bleating about \u201cschools and hospitals\u201d, you\u2019re being manipulated. Governments spend money on lots of things you probably don\u2019t approve of, in addition to the schools and hospitals everyone likes. The notion that tax avoidance or even evasion is responsible for school closures is nonsense, even at the outside estimates of the amount of tax that is avoided or evaded every year.\nIt\u2019s also worth being a little more sceptical about some of the more outspoken voices you may hear in the media on this. Margaret Hodge, for instance, the current chair of the Public Accounts Committee appears to have a very large holding in Stemcor, much of it held in trusts. The facts and figures in that letter are disputed \u2014 both Hodge and Stemcor used the word \u201clibellous\u201d in their response \u2014 but the fact is that Stemcor is owned by and controlled by the Oppenheimer family, of which Hodge is a member, and there is certainly some evidence that it engages in the kind of tax planning of which Hodge has been so publicly critical.\nOn VAT\nPanorama made a point of mentioning Lewis Hamilton\u2019s jet, on which he apparently hasn\u2019t paid any VAT in spite of it allegedly being used for personal use, as opposed to merely business use. I\u2019m sure he isn\u2019t the only one doing this, I might add \u2014 it\u2019s just that Panorama singled him out.\nNow, again, this is more complicated than it seems on the face of it. If I were Lewis or his accountant or lawyer, I\u2019d probably point out that much of what Lewis does, including posting pictures of himself on Instagram (or wherever) having a very nice time apparently on holiday, could be construed as \u201cbusiness\u201d, in that Lewis Hamilton is, himself, a brand (in the same way as, for instance, David Beckham). That, and the itinerant nature of Formula 1, makes it quite difficult to separate personal use of his aeroplane from business use, and I imagine that\u2019s what the Isle of Man\u2019s tax officials had in mind when they allowed him to pay no VAT on its import into the European Union. It\u2019s also, as I understand it, not unusual to discount a small amount of business use on some items, though the rules are very complicated and I don\u2019t know how it applies to aeroplanes in practice, and it may well be that the Isle of Man got it wrong when they did this.\nI\u2019m not sure VAT avoidance or VAT is really in-scope for this piece, as it only formed a minor part of the information coming out from the Paradise Papers, so I\u2019m not going to talk more about it here.\nAs always with these things, I\u2019d say it\u2019s a good idea to be more sceptical about what you read or hear in the media. Rather than blaming \u201cthe rich\u201d or \u201ccorporations\u201d for the problem of tax avoidance, you should look to your politicians. They, not the rich and not the corporations, are responsible for setting the law, and a lot of this is caused by baroque legislation made for political purposes and a failure to grasp the nettle of tax simplification.\n\u00ab dmgbuild Update Aura \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Case Report \u2013 Federal Court addresses effect of requester\u2019s death on a denied access request\nOn April 29th, the Federal Court ordered Correctional Services Canada to provide a requester\u2019s personal information to the Elizabeth Fry Society on the basis of a consent she signed before she committed suicide.\nThe requester alleged mistreatment by CSC and sought the help of the Society. The Society made a request for access to personal information on her behalf pursuant to a consent that authorized disclosure to the Society. In the consent, the requester stated the disclosure was \u201cfor the purpose of assisting me.\u201d The CSC failed to answer the request in time and was deemed to have refused it on August 17, 2009, about two months before the requester committed suicide.The CSC later denied the request to the Society and, in response to the Society\u2019s application, claimed the Society had no standing as a result of the requester\u2019s death.\nThe Court held that the Society continued to be authorized to act on the requester\u2019s behalf after her death. It mentioned briefly that the purpose of the consent continued after her death, but its reasoning does not rest heavily on the language of the consent. It said, for example, \u201cI conclude that the Act intended that an individual\u2019s right to grant access to their personal information survives their death.\u201d This finding allowed the Court to conclude that the Society had standing to file an application to the Federal Court as an \u201cindividual who has been refused access to personal information.\u201d It is questionable whether this fact limits the judgement, but the Court did stress that the requester was alive and being represented by the Society on the date of the deemed refusal.\nCanadian Association of Elizabeth Fry Societies v.

        "raw_content": "Dumas, TX is a small town of approximately 15,000 in the Panhandle and is located at intersection of Highway 287 and Highway 87/152. One of the things we like about Dumas is the low cost of housing. The cost of housing is 25% lower than the rest of the state and the cost of living in Dumas is low. You can get a home for an average price of $86,000 and rents average $608. Dumas is considered a very safe place to live and it has an excellent school system.\nThe major sectors of employment are manufacturing and the oil industry, and Dumas' unemployment rate is lower than the state and national average. JB Swift is a large meatpacking plant in Dumas, and Valero, an oil refinery, is another major employer. Both employ many of the residents of Dumas and the surrounding area. A new 265 acre business park in Dumas is helping to build the growing economy. Recently the Moore County Airport made major renovations to accommodate larger jets and it is hoped this helps to bring even more business to the area. Amarillo is only 45 miles away, and if you choose to commute you will not have to worry about traffic jams with the wide open highway between Dumas and Amarillo.\nOne of the other reasons we like Dumas is the variety of golf courses in the area. There are three golf courses in nearby Pampa, and Dumas has an 18 hole regulation course suitable for beginners and pros. The Pheasant Trails Golf Course is located on Schuman Road and is open to the public. Dumas also has a free RV park on Highway 87 on the West side of town right before the railroad tracks. The RV park fills up quickly, so you need to get there early to find a spot. If you enjoy your stay, you\u2019re encouraged to leave a donation to keep the park free. All of these things make Dumas a small town with lots to offer and one of our favorites in the Panhandle.",

        "raw_content": "Love and the Real Regency Rake\nMiniature of John Mytton by Samuel John Stump\nThe rake is supposed to be an object of desire, a hero of modern Regency romance. There is nothing desirable nor heroic about John Mytton. Something is missing in his story.\nThe character of the rake first appeared in seventeenth century. He was a libertine, a prodigal bent on rebellion and frequently addicted to excessive appetites. During Charles II\u2019s reign, Restoration comedies modeled this new kind of hero after certain aristocrats who indulged in such antics. They could be anything from Sir Charles Sedley, a man who simulated sex in public while drunkenly naked, to the more notorious (!) George Villiers, 2nd Duke of Buckingham who killed the Earl of Shrewsbury in a duel over the latter\u2019s wife.\nAfter a while, however, the tiresome rake began to weary the play-going public.\nEnter the feisty heroine, employed to restore the libertine to his senses and thus allow the rake to remain a popular device in literature. She, too, was modeled after redeeming females. Even though Sedley couldn\u2019t marry her, being unable to obtain a divorce from his insane wife, Ann Ayscough remained with him until the end of his life. Villiers\u2019 wife took him back after the affair with the widowed Countess of Shrewsbury:\n\u201cThe Duchess of Buckingham has merit and virtue; she is brown and lean, but had she been the most beautiful and charming of her sex, the being his wife would have been sufficient alone to have inspired him with a dislike. Notwithstanding she knew he was always intriguing, yet she never spoke of it, and had complaisance enough to entertain his mistresses, and even to lodge them in her house; all which she suffered because she loved him.\u201d \u2014 Memoirs of the English Court by Madame Dunois (1699)\nWithout such love, poor John Mytton was doomed. Recall in an earlier post the warning that Mytton was not fit for marriage. Did that make him insensible to love?\nAfter his second wife left him, John tried in vain to get her to return to him. He even went so far as to seek her out at Chillington Hall, her family\u2019s home to which she had fled. Constables were summoned to handcuff him, for in his great strength he had knocked down eight strong manservants in the foyer, desperate to see the one he loved.\nHis friend Nimrod laments the self-destruction that not only robbed Mytton of his happiness, but the love of his life as well:\n\u201cHe loved this woman to distraction; he would have given the apple of his eye for her at any time; he would have risked twenty lives to have gotten her back again, and obtained her forgiveness; he raved about her in his madness, and sent her his dying benediction!\u201d\nChillington Hall, now a wedding venue.

Although, there\u2019s been a few written recently that make me think the distinction is not as significant as formerly thought. Thanks for stopping by!\n\u2654 la dauphine \u2654 on June 23, 2013 at 1:04 am said:\nI agree with Joy, nothing to write home about & a genuine duche. It is rather impressive that he bested 8 guards! And of course, in concurrence with my teenage sense of humor\u2026his friend\u2019s name is Nimod! Hee hee. Another top post!\nThanks for commenting. Nimrod would have made a good Regency romance author\u2013for his Herculean attempts to redeem his rakish friend if for nothing else.\nNancy on June 23, 2013 at 1:45 am said:\nI do not know why so many authors claim their hero is the greatest rake in 3 kingdoms. It shows a massive disrespect for women\u2013 treating them as interchangeable and disposable. I guess it comes from the old saying of a reformed rake is the best husband and the heroine is the one to reform him.\nWhy didn\u2019t Mytton realize he loved his wife so desperately before he made her leave? He proves that even a rake in love can\u2019t always change his ways.\nThe heroes written today are not rakes in the true sense of the (Regency era) word. And even during the Regency, rake was a concept taken from the seventeenth century when audiences were eager to shake of Cromwellian taste. Tastes change and so do the characters with them. A reformed rake is an enduring character, however, that continues to claim the reader\u2019s delight. Making the reformation difficult, achievable and yet believable can be a Herculean task not only for the heroine but for the author as well. Mytton: a rake in the truest sense. Because of that, his story is not marketable. A paradox, if you will. Thanks for stopping by.\nBeppie Harrison on June 23, 2013 at 2:35 am said:\nThe idea of a rake (or bad boy, nowadays) is much more tempting in fiction than in real life. In fiction he always straightens up under the beguiling influence of the woman he loves and turns into a hero. In real life \u2014 well, Mytton was an excellent example of real life, wasn\u2019t he?\nAnd he didn\u2019t even make himself happy with his pleasures!\nI like your focus on the fiction of the rake. And your take on what happens in real life.\nLacey Falcone on June 23, 2013 at 5:56 am said:\nI think the idea of a rake is very true to real life today\u2026I think women who are younger, and not very experienced with men or love, are always attracted to the guys who are not good for them \u2013 the ones on the edge. The ones who are a bit naughty. As we grow older and a bit more experienced, we realize that these guys are not good for us. But, we still have a special place in our hearts for the rakes, especially if we marry them early. I\u2019m not surprised that the Duchess of Buckingham still loved him. Interesting post!\nLacey, your comment reads like a great prologue to an enduring romance. Thanks for stopping by.\ntexasdruids on June 23, 2013 at 4:26 pm said:\nThe Regency rake has been done and done. I\u2019d rather read about a man of that time period with a sense of honor. Heroes shouldn\u2019t always require reforming.\nExactly why the Restoration comedies had to change the character of the rake. It can be wearisome to read/watch something that\u2019s been done and done.\nAlly Broadfield on June 23, 2013 at 10:59 pm said:\nExcellent post. I enjoyed reading the comments. In the end, I think romance readers love the reformed rake because we like the idea that love can conquer all.\nYou said it very well, Ally.\nPingback: Love and the Regency Rake By Angelyn Schmid | The Beau Monde",

        "raw_content": "It wasn\u2019t until I left the US that I realized how invasive our police force is. The are everywhere. As a poor kid in a bad neighborhood, I was often subject to their harassment for doing things like: walking on the sidewalk, going to work, coming home from work, being in the mall, being in any store, shopping, walking home with groceries, etc\u2026\nHonestly, it\u2019s hardly even something you think about. Cops hassle you if you live in a bad neighborhood. That\u2019s how it is. And you can\u2019t do anything about it, because they have guns and a legal right to shoot you. So you smile and let them question you while your groceries are going bad in the heat. You smile and pretend that you aren\u2019t humiliated.\nTwo of my friends were shot dead by police when I was growing up.\nOne was because he stopped his step-dad from beating his mom. His step-dad was angry to be stood up to by \u201cthat little brat\u201d and told the cops that he had been threatened and that my friend had a gun. When the cops saw my friend Billy, they shot him more than 20 times. He never had a gun (of course), but that didn\u2019t matter after he was dead. They said they did the best they could, acting on the information that they had.\nThe second time it was \u201cby accident.\u201d A cop fired into a crowd (in spite of training not to do that) and a stray bullet hit my friend. It only took the one bullet, as luck would have it. It caught her in the head. Some would say that she shouldn\u2019t have been out late at that desert party in the first place, but I would say that cops shouldn\u2019t just shoot at people. Ever.\nI thought this was just something people feel in every country, but it\u2019s not.\nIn fact, when I was in Japan I was surprised at how kind and helpful the police were (if you saw them, which was rare.) Same for France and England. In South Korea I was shocked to learn that people sometimes get angry at cops for \u201chassling them\u201d and punch them in the face. This is a $200 fine (no criminal charges). But here\u2019s what makes that even more outrageous: the cops don\u2019t hassle you for nothing there. If you are being so rude and loud and awful that the cops are called on you, well, that is a very rare thing. And cops will do anything there to avoid arresting you. If you are drunk, they will drive you home. If you are angry, they will calm you down. They don\u2019t like to get involved, and if they do, they like to minimize their involvement.\nIn sharp contrast, our for-profit prison system holds more people than any other country on Earth. And our police are very obviously in the business of keeping those jails full so that they can turn a profit for investors.\nI know that those of you from nicer neighborhoods might not get this. Cops don\u2019t tend to pick on the rich because they can afford lawyers. But trust me, this is a huge issue, and one that we as a country need to address.\nThink about how much nicer it would be if the cops only came when they were called.\nPosted in Angry Rant, Expat Insight.Tagged Can't they come when called?, Cops kill, for-profit prisons, Freedom is what I feel in other places but not at home, It's not freedom if it comes with stop and frisk, keeping jails full, We let this happen, Why do they harass us.\nPrevious Post Politically Correct\nNext Post The Image of the US Abroad",

        "raw_content": "After you get up\nAll those inspirational metaphors about \u201cfalling down and getting back up\u201d have never worked for me. I understand the sentiment, but I always think: everybody gets up. It\u2019s what you do after you get up that counts.\nSome people will stand still. Some will move forward, slowly, dragging their feet and resisting the need to move on. Others will run recklessly toward the same situation that made them fall down in the first place. Some might sit down for a moment and reflect on what went wrong, some might ask a loved one to hold their hand for a while, and some might forge ahead without really processing what happened so they can take a lesson from it.\nHere\u2019s a different metaphor that I like better. Imagine a long pole across your shoulders, with bags hanging on each end, and each of the bags has weight \u2013 these are \u201cburdens.\u201d Some might be related to work, or to family, friends, or finances. Some are heavier than others.\nSometimes life hangs a new \u201cbag\u201d on your pole. This leaves you feeling unbalanced, as you were used to carrying your burdens a certain way, and now there\u2019s a new one. You have to adjust, get used to the added weight and the way it\u2019s distributed over you. Then you can start stepping forward again.\nFortunately, weights can be removed, too. The resolution of a problem or a difficult situation makes the burden lighter \u2013 but we still have to get used to the change.\nWe can also take on the burdens of others, in an attempt to lessen their load.\nI\u2019ve had a rough couple of weeks. I fell down, and I got back up \u2026 because that\u2019s what you do. Now I have to adjust to this new weight, and start stepping forward.\nchuck close, inspiration, inspiration is for amateurs\nA message for my students\nmessage for students, students\nI was touched by a video message from former first lady Michelle Obama (link below) for college students, and I echo the things she said here. I wanted to take her four points and express them in my own words:\nDon\u2019t doubt that you deserve to be here \u2013 Everybody feels like an impostor sometimes. You\u2019ve got game, or you wouldn\u2019t be here. Believe it.\nDon\u2019t be afraid to try new things \u2013 Every day, you\u2019ll encounter something that pushes against your comfort zone. That\u2019s what college is for. You\u2019ll keep getting stronger.\nDon\u2019t try to do this alone \u2013 There are all kinds of resources available to you when you need them. Need writing help? We have that. Need mental health counseling? We have that too. You are not on your own here, you have a whole staff of professionals whose job it is to help you. And it\u2019s not a weakness to need help.\nThere are people who believe in you \u2013 Including me. In fact, I\u2019ll lead that parade. When people complain about \u201ckids these days,\u201d I\u2019m one of the first to say \u2013 let me tell you about MY students. They\u2019re bright, energetic, and filled with purpose. They\u2019re going to make this world a better place. I believe in you so, so much. You\u2019re going to life a meaningful life, and I\u2019m already so proud of you.\nFollow this link for Mrs. Obama\u2019s video message:\nMichelle Obama\u2019s message to first-generation college students\nStop by office hours to talk. I\u2019m here because of you.\nDr. Hamel (here with Annelise Wilp, class of 2018)\nHere we are, one week out from school starting, and these rascals are slowing me down:\nStill working on syllabi and lesson plans, attending meetings, and all the busyness of the start of the school year. This morning I served on a Q&A panel for new faculty, which was a lot of fun. We have some really clever and eager new colleagues joining us this year.\nTake a moment today to breathe, to just stare into space and think. This is life, right now, this moment.\ncoffee and kindness, power, president, truth, truth to power\n\u201cThe President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else.\u201d \u2013Theodore Roosevelt\n\u2014 The Kansas City Star, 18 May 1918\nI\u2019m here in the office, setting up the course websites for Fall 2018. School starts a week from Wednesday (August 29), and I have various meetings and appointments next week. Fall semester seemed so far off, and now it\u2019s like a freight train barreling down the track at us!\nI\u2019m also moving offices \u2013 just two doors down, but a bigger (corner) office with much nicer walls and carpet than my current one. The current occupant of that room is moving downstairs to an office that\u2019s being vacated by a retiree \u2013 but his stuff is still in that room, so the process can\u2019t begin just yet. The retiring colleague is the first \u201cdomino\u201d in this process. I\u2019m just hoping I won\u2019t be trying to move during the first week of classes, but we\u2019ll deal with it if we have to.\nI still haven\u2019t finished the book manuscript, but that has to be moved to the \u201cback burner\u201d for now. Must finish course prep and get this move done.\nGoing up north for the weekend to visit my parents. I\u2019ve discovered that it\u2019s futile to wait until a \u201cgood time,\u201d I just have to make time and go. Otherwise there\u2019s never a good time and I never stop working. Girl needs a break now and then.\nThe days are already getting a bit shorter, and the nights are cooler. Autumn is my favorite time of year \u2013 can\u2019t wait for football and \u201choodie weather!\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Arizona's oldest highway\nApache Lake has remained a relatively untouched gem due to the nature of its location. Apache Lake Marina and Resort is only accessible via the Apache Trail, also known as State Route 88. The Apache Trail is a historical route completed in 1905, and is known as one of the most scenic drives in Arizona. The trail winds through the Superstition Mountains, passing Goldfield, Canyon Lake, and Tortilla Flat, eventually arriving at Apache Lake.\nThe Apache Trail provides drivers with the opportunity to experience the untainted, absolute beauty of Arizona\u2019s wilderness. View thousands of saguaro and other species of cacti, marvel at fiery igneous rock, catch a rare gila monster or coatimundi crossing the road, and share the same views as westerners in the early 1900s.\n\u201cThe Apache Trail combines the grandeur of the Alps, the glory of the Rockies, the magnificence of the Grand Canyon, and then adds an indefinable something that none others have, to me, it is the most awe-inspiring and most sublimely beautiful\u201d\n-Theodore Roosevelt, 1911\nThe Apache Trail is paved for the first 25 miles, and turns to dirt for the remaining seven miles when driving from Apache Junction. The trail was declared Arizona\u2019s first historic highway, and a portion remains unpaved in order to preserve its historic integrity. The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) is in charge of keeping the road graded and maintained, but the dirt road is exposed to the elements, which means it is prone to potholes and washboards on occasion.\nDirections to Apache Lake\nThe drive to Apache Lake is approximately 2 hours from the Phoenix Metropolitan area.\nHow to Get to Apache Lake?\nThe most common route is from Phoenix, Arizona.\nTake the I-10 to the US-60 East\nExit Idaho Road, and drive north on Idaho Road\nTurn right on Route 88 (also known as the Apache Trail)\nContinue on Route 88 for approximately 25 miles of paved road\nThe paved road turns to a dirt road- continue on the dirt road for another 7 miles\nAfter 7 miles of dirt road, there will be a sign for Apache Lake Marina & Resort. Turn left down the paved road for 1 mile\nAt the bottom of the hill in a tan building with a green roof. This is our main building. Turn in here.",

It takes its color from the liturgical feast as listed above.\nCassock (KASS-uhk) \u2013 a long, black garment worn by altar servers under the surplice; also worn by diocesan priests (black); monsignors (rose); bishops (violet), cardinals (red), and the Pope (white).\nSurplice (SIR-plis) \u2013 Worn over the cassock, this is a wide-sleeved garment that when slipped over the head, covers the shoulders and extends down below the hips.\nCope (KOPE) \u2013 a cape-like garment, open in the front that when placed over the shoulders, hangs to the ankles. It is worn by a priest or deacon in processions at Benediction and other services.\nBenediction Veil \u2013 a long, narrow shawl-like vestment used at Benediction (also called the humeral veil).\nAltar \u2013 This is the focal point of the church. It is a table, often made of wood or stone, that is set at the center of the sanctuary and has been consecrated for sacred use. The holy sacrifice of the Mass is offered on the altar, as the gifts of bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. A relic of a saint is often contained inside the altar.\nAmbo \u2013 This looks like a podium and this is where the lector proclaims the readings for Mass. The deacon or priest also reads the Gospel from here.\nTabernacle \u2013 the most Holy Eucharist is reserved in this sturdy, immovable, vault-like receptacle that is locked at all times. It is normally located in the sanctuary apart from the altar.\nSanctuary Lamp \u2013 a candle that remains lit in front of the tabernacle to remind us that the Eucharistic presence of Christ is reserved in the tabernacle.

Candles can also be used in procession and/or to decorate the sanctuary area. Candles symbolize joy and festivity and remind us of God\u2019s presence as fire and light.\nPaschal Candle \u2013 the large candle lit at the Easter Vigil, is used during the Easter Season and during baptisms and funerals. It is a reminder of the risen Christ and our participation in the Resurrection of the Lord.\nIncense \u2013 used on major feast days and for funerals, it symbolizes communication with God. The image of smoke rising to the heavens in combination with the fragrance it emits, invoke a connection with the divine.\nHoly water font \u2013 receptacles that look like bowls that hold holy water and are placed at the entrance of the Church. Worshippers entering or exiting the church dip their fingers into the holy water and make the sign of the cross as a reminder of their baptismal promises and commitment.",

L \u2013 An earthenware jar decorated with crocodiles and snakes was probably made between 3100 and 3300 B.C.\nThe admirable show, \u201cDawn of Egyptian Art\u201d put together at the Metropolitan Museum of Art by Diana Craig Patch, reveals a world of seething artistic creation headed in multiple directions. Much of it bears no recognizable connection to the statuary and objects from Egypt under its historic dynasties.\nThe most startling revelation is the simultaneous existence by the end of the fourth millennium B.C. of pure abstraction, highly stylized figuration and representational art close to nature.\nA large earthenware vessel from Naqada, a site north of Luxor in Upper Egypt, is thus painted with some abstract motifs above a group of simplified human figures. Around and below them, desert goats are accurately rendered with their characteristic twisted horns. The vessel was created around 3300-3200 B.C.\nDuring the centuries that preceded it, Egyptian artists had been exploring radically different avenues.\nA stone jar carved between 3650 and 3300 B.C. displays a stunning aptitude at reducing animal form to near abstraction, with a surreal twist that anticipates 20th-century avant-garde art. With its round eyes and curving tusks, it conjures the image of an elephant. The image conveys a distinct sense of hilarity. This comes out even more definitely in a gray stone palette shaped as an animal. To Ms. Patch, this is a lion. Others might be tempted to see it as a hippopotamus with its massive back and enormous head.\nRead full article: NYTimes \u2013 The Roots of Art in Ancient Egypt\nChristie\u2019s Dubai totals $12 millions\nAyyam Art Auction in Dubai 9th of April",

The tea party was being organized by one of our own seniors for her senior project. Last year we helped with a similar project, but the theme was Wizard of Oz. I was excited to help with this project and knew that the students would love helping as well. After all, girls love princesses, no matter how old they are.

Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) is an approved adjunctive therapy for mid- and advanced stage Parkinson\u2019s disease that improves motor symptoms, quality of life, and activities of daily living while also reducing medication burden and associated complications. Vanderbilt University Medical Center completed the only prospective, randomized clinical trial testing DBS in very early stage Parkinson\u2019s disease.

        "raw_content": "Posted on May 31, 2007. Filed under: Spiritual Musings |\nIt\u2019s late at night and I\u2019ve been thinking about something. Everyone knows what kind of funk I\u2019ve been in. It just seems as though nothing has gone right for a year and a half. You feel sick inside and even your soul becomes sick after a while. For almost two years I refused to leave the house (unless practically dragged out) and then when I would leave to go somewhere I\u2019d wander off to a quiet corner and sit in silence.\nBut here lately, I\u2019ve thought to myself, \u201cIf I really want a change, if I want to get back to where I used to be I need to get out again.\u201d I\u2019ve been out of the house more often in the past four weeks than I have been in the last year\u2026.and this has caused me to really think.\nGood Titus and Bad Titus don\u2019t normally like to be held for very long. But every once in a while, Good and Bad Titus gets sick or gets really tired or gets hurt and simply needs to be held (not wants to be held but needs to be held). Just sits there and waits, waits until it seems like it\u2019s okay to come back out. It makes me wonder if that\u2019s not what is happening with me.\nMaybe, with all of the hurt, all of the crap, all of the bad news I\u2019ve gotten (almost without any good news in-between), I\u2019ve just climbed into the lap of God and I just haven\u2019t been ready to get up. It\u2019s not that God made the move towards me, nor did he do anything while I sat there (I\u2019m speaking metaphorically, please don\u2019t give me the \u2018God is always doing stuff\u2019 line cuz I\u2019ll have to hit you) just like I don\u2019t need to always do something with Good and Bad Titus when sitting in my own lap. As a matter of fact, I doubt there\u2019s even a realization that there\u2019s a lap being sat in.\nMaybe I\u2019m in the same position. Maybe I\u2019m sitting in the lap of God, just being held, without even realizing that I\u2019m being comforted. Maybe I need to 1) realize that\u2019s what\u2019s happening and 2) maybe the reason I\u2019m getting out more often is because I\u2019m ready now to be let back down off of that lap.\nI don\u2019t know, I don\u2019t want to speculate.

Participants experience the Teamwork Compass\u00ae, a powerful tool that helps leaders understand the four foundational elements of a successful team. They then work through a series of hands -on leadership activities that help them see how much more effectively a team can operate when using these key attributes. With the guidance of our expert facilitators, participants then discuss how this impacts their own leadership style and approach.\nWelcome & Warm-Ups (10-15 minutes) Atlanta Challenge staff welcome participants and set expectations and ground rules for the leadership activities. We then lead some fun warm-up challenges that break the ice and get the group physically and emotionally involved, as well as split them into smaller groups for the event if needed.\nThe Teamwork Compass\u00ae (15-20 minutes) We lead a short interactive conversation about the key ingredients of teamwork, how different team members have a stronger affinity for some of those ingredients, and how a leader can bring them all together to be an unstoppable team. We then use this metaphor throughout the program to help the group become familiar with this powerful tool for successful leadership.\nThe Quest (60-120 minutes) Participants tackle a series of hands-on leadership activities which require brainstorming, collaboration, planning, and creative problem-solving. Here are some examples of the dozens that we have available. The activities are selected by your facilitator to fit your group.\nBull Ring In this activity, participants must transport a ball from the top of a stake to another stake which is about 30 feet away. Half the group are \u201cmanagers\u201d and half the group are \u201cworkers\u201d. The managers have a limited amount of time to coach the workers to accomplish this task. This initiative focuses on quality control, communication, and effective problem solving.\nCorporate Connection In this challenge, every per- son in the group must be directed by the leaders through a maze within the designated time. All participants must find the path to the other side through trial and error. The leader\u2019s job is to ensure that the team learns from their mistakes, and \u201cfails forward.\u201d\nRaising the Bar The group will attempt to collaboratively lower a pole to the ground, without blaming each other for the odd behavior of the pole. A great lesson in team focus, and group dynamics.\nClosing Debrief & Wrap-up Activity (5-15 minutes) The group comes together to acknowledge accomplishments and incorporate refined leadership skills into real life. We wrap up with a meaningful closing activity and team photo.\nEnhance leadership skills.\nLength: 90 min \u2013 3 hours\n\u201cWe had a really good time and accomplished a lot. I suspect we will work with you guys again in the future.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Tom and Ed\u2019s Autobody in Schererville, IN, Celebrates 30 Years\nBack in 1983, Tom Tylka and his business partner Ed opened a body shop in Schererville, IN, and 30 years later, Tom & Ed\u2019s Autobody is still successful, although without the \u201cEd.\u201d Ed left the business after only a year, but Tom, now 63, kept the name the same, and he and his wife Debbie Tylka became the sole owners.\n\u201cEd only lasted a year, but I left his name on the business so he could see what he would be missing,\u201d Tom joked. \u201cThe name was on our logo and all the letterhead and paperwork and I didn\u2019t want to change it.\u201d\nThree decades ago, Tom left a job in the welding and engineering industry to open his own business. What started out as a hobby tinkering and restoring old MGs and Jaguars grew into his dream.\n\u201cI always wanted to own my own business,\u201d he said. \u201cThat was my goal in life. We started out with $2,500 and 2,500 square feet.\u201d\nIn the early years, the shop was a small 2,500 square foot space. With big ambitions, it grew to a 15,000-square-foot facility by 1995. Tylka opened two more locations in the northwest Indiana area\u2014a 10,000-square-foot facility opened in Crown Point in 1998, and in 1999 they opened a 8,500-square-foot facility in Merrillville in Bosak Motors facility. He also operates a 24-hour towing service.\nOne of the toughest business decisions Tylka has made was the decision to add locations. He saw the industry heading in the direction of consolidation. One of his biggest concerns was quality control and customer satisfaction, and so the business has standard operating procedures for everything.\nToday, Tylka\u2019s body shops bring in $4 million a year and he has 35 employees, including his wife Debbie who is vice president and takes care of the financial end of the business. Tom & Ed\u2019s Autobody competes against the larger MSOs and they are surviving. Much of their work is for dealerships. He attributes his success to how he treats customers.\n\u201cI started out treating customers how I wanted to be treated and that\u2019s still true today,\u201d he said.\nHis top three secrets to success are:\n1) paying attention to his employees and listening to their opinions.\n2) Having access to numbers to constantly measure and improve the business.\n3) Having strong support from his wife and family. \u201cI put a lot of time and effort into the business and they sacrificed just as much for our success,\u201d he said.\nThe best advice he has to give, he said, is to \u201cwork on your business and not in your business.\u201d\n\u201cGrowth is important for success. Prepare to be very competitive in your business, and be in touch with your customers, and your community,\u201d he added.\nHow does he see the future of Tom & Ed\u2019s Autobody? Continued growth and constant improvement. \u201cWe are not done expanding and we are looking for more locations to grow our services in a bigger market. We are also very excited for my son to eventually take over the company,\u201d he said.\n\u201cWe are all so very proud of my father and mother, as they teamed up to grow something special,\u201d said Andy Tylka, 30, who joined the business three years ago and is the general manager. \u201cI was lucky enough to join into this business and see firsthand how special my parents are to the staff.\u201d\nFor fun, Tom\u2019s hobbies include things that sound like more work\u2014 house rentals, commercial real estate and he recently bought a limo bus and is dabbling in limo service. \u201cHe always has his hands in something new,\u201d Andy said.\nTom & Ed\u2019s Autobody is planning a 30th anniversary celebration in late summer.\nMore in this category: \u00ab MI Couple Accused of Embezzling from Auto Glass Retailer Ohio Shop Owner Sentenced in Restoration Case \u00bb",

        "title": "Year in review 2018: Diesel | Autovista Group",
        "raw_content": "The last 12 months have seen a steep decline in diesel sales, while manufacturers, industry bodies and vehicle suppliers continue to champion the technology.\nDuring 2018, there were over 200 stories relating to diesel technology in Autovista Group\u2019s Daily News Brief.\nThe year started ominously for the industry as France became the first country to post its 2017 figures, showing diesel market share falling below 50% for the first time since 2000, with registrations falling 5%. Sales of diesel engine vehicles in Germany fell by 13% in 2017, while UK sales of vehicles using the technology fell by 17.1%. This was coupled with an increase in CO2 levels in the country, the first rise in 20 years, and a sign of things to come.\nQuarterly figures for Europe released in November by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), revealed that 58% of all new passenger cars sold in Europe ran on petrol, while roughly a third were fuelled by diesel. Sales declined in most EU countries except Denmark, Romania, Bulgaria and Poland, meaning the market fell from 43.1% in Q3 2017 to 34.7% in the last three months. Overall, 1,208,639 cars were sold, down 18.2%. Year-to-date sales declined 16.9% compared to the first nine months of 2017.\nWhile sales of the technology fell, the UK\u2019s used car market proved there was demand for diesel technology, placing the blame on falling new sales on rising tax rates and demonisation, rather than lack of appetite. Conventional petrol and diesel engines made up more than 98% of all Q3 transactions, with around 850,000 diesel vehicles changing hands. While new diesel sales are plummeting, used sales of the technology continue to remain fairly stable, just 2.6% down compared to Q3 2017.\nRetrofits and bans\nIn Germany, the first instance of the need for manufacturers to offer hardware retrofitting, on top of their software retrofits offered during 2017, came up in January. Following national elections that saw no party gain a majority to rule in the country, the leading Christian Democratic Union (CDU) held coalition talks with the Social Democratic Party (SDP). As part of these negotiations, politicians wanted to push through a series of hardware updates to diesel vehicles, something manufacturers opposed.\nHowever, while the debate over retrofits rumbled on, Hamburg became the first city in Germany to implement a driving ban on diesel vehicles in the city, nominating some streets to place restrictions upon. This was then followed with announcements of bans starting in 2019 in Frankfurt and Stuttgart. In each instance, only certain areas of the cities are subject to bans, with Euro 4 and below vehicles not allowed to travel in these zones. Bans on Euro 5 diesels will come into place later this year.\nCleaner diesels\nNew data released during the year by ACEA provided evidence that latest-generation diesel vehicles emit low pollutant emissions on the road.\nSome 270 new types of diesel cars type-approved against the latest Euro 6d-TEMP standard were introduced on the European market over the past year. All of these diesel cars performed well below the NOx threshold of the real driving emissions (RDE) test, which applies to all new car types since September 2017. What is more, already today most of these vehicles show results that are below the stricter NOx threshold that will be mandatory from January 2020.\nIn April, vehicle supplier Bosch presented new exhaust technology that it claimed could save diesel. The system has been tested by the company and in real-world driving conditions (RDE) emits lower levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx) than is permitted by new regulations due to be adopted in 2020. Bosch engineers achieved the results by refining existing technologies, meaning no expensive additional components were needed.\nThere were a number of recalls in 2018, as manufacturers continued to grapple with the fallout of Dieselgate. Audi was ordered to issue a recall for 127,000 vehicles after the country\u2019s KBA motor transport authority, the KBA, detected illegal emission control software, while Daimler was told to recall more than 600,000 vehicles including Mercedes-Benz C-class and G-class models because of suspected emissions manipulation.\nIn February, Audi\u2019s headquarters and plant in Neckarsulm were raided in relation to the Dieselgate scandal. These searches, together with some carried out at private homes, related to suspected fraud and illegal advertising in connection with the sale of at least 210,000 vehicles in both Europe and the US since 2009.\nGerman prosecutors also searched Opel\u2019s Ruesselsheim and Kaiserslautern facilities as part of a probe into potential diesel-emissions cheating. As a result of the raid, the KBA ordered the carmaker to recall 100,000 vehicles, including Cascada, Insignia and Zafira models. The authority has said that illegal \u2018defeat devices\u2019 were discovered in Opel cars earlier in the year.\nAutomotive supplier Bosch was also told it must hand over emails in connection with lawsuits brought by investors against Porsche, linked to the Dieselgate scandal.\nFinally, as diesel markets fell, a number of manufacturers confirmed they would be ending sales, development and production of the technology, concentrating instead on electric and hybrid vehicles.\nToyota was the first to suggest it would suspend diesel production in January 2018, halting sales in Italy and France. Porsche also announced that it would be ending its association with the diesel engine.\nThe company says that by 2022, it will have invested more than \u20ac6 billion in e-mobility creating the basis for sustainable growth in the future. It also believes that interest in hybrid models is taking off, with 63% of its Panamera models sold in Europe having a hybrid powertrain.\nNissan said it would cease to launch any new passenger vehicles with a diesel engine from 2021, although it will continue to offer the option on commercial vehicles and pickup trucks, where the fuel remains dominant. French automotive manufacturer Renault is also to reduce its diesel range in Europe as it looks to expand its hybrid presence in the region.",

        "raw_content": "By author | Badi News | No Comments\n-Unaffordable housing is a 21st-century global issue. As demand from ever-growing urban populations and fragmenting households fast outstrips supply, badi comes in with a smart solution to unlock available rooms through Europe.\n-Badi has hit over 12 million room rental requests since first launching in 2015.\n-The funding is being led by Silicon Valley VC Goodwater Capital, making its first investment into a Spanish startup along with Target Global and returning VCs Spark Capital and Mangrove Capital.\nBarcelona, January 10, 2019: Badi, the leading room-rental marketplace that makes city living accessible, has today announced a $30M Series B, led by Goodwater Capital, a US-based consumer tech VC firm that previously invested in companies like Spotify, Twitter and Facebook. This new round will bring badi\u2019s funding up to $45M.\nIn this last round, Shmuel Chafets from Target Global VC has also participated along with returning VCs Mangrove Capital and Spark Capital.\nAdditionally, Tao-Tao, COO of one of the booming German tech companies GetYourGuide will be joining badi\u2019s board which is currently formed by Alex Finkelstein from Spark Capital, a prestigious US venture firm that previously has invested in companies like Slack, Oculus, Coinbase & Twitter; Nikolas Krawinkel from Mangrove Capital Partners, one of Europe\u2019s most successful VCs who has invested in Skype & Wix.com, Didac Lee, an outstanding Spanish entrepreneur and Carlos Pierre, CEO of badi.\nReal estate is the largest commodity in the world, with an estimated $217 trillion valuation. Home ownership in Europe has collapsed within 20 years, so more and more people are looking for non-binding and flexible accommodation option. However, the offering is not responding to demand, which is why the price of rents are continuing to increase.\nBadi has already championed London as one of the most important cities to invest in, largely due to it being continually named as Europe\u2019s most expensive city to rent over the past few years. Badi has already seen success in Spain for the same reasons, as the rental market has grown by 130% in the last 10 years and represents 23% of the entire real estate industry, making Barcelona and London a huge focus for the room rental marketplace.\nParis, Berlin and Rome are also strongly on the brand\u2019s agenda thanks to their constant growth, size and high rental prices. Currently, private rentals represent 21% of Rome\u2019s market, 23% of Paris\u2019 market, and 40% of Berlin\u2019s market, highlighting the demand for badi\u2019s sophisticated solution. The Series B funding will allow the company to continue to further expand into all of these leading European markets and make smart-city-living a viable option.\nThe new capital will enable the company to consolidate its services in Barcelona, Madrid, London, Paris and Rome and open new markets in major European cities starting with Berlin. The investment will also be used to expand the core team up to 100%, open new offices in London and develop new extra services to make the life of landlords and tenants easier.\nBadi sets itself apart as an end-to-end platform that connects landlords with room seekers by using AI. The brand has already hit 12 million rental requests since launch and is not stopping there \u2013 badi is on a mission to become the world\u2019s largest and most innovative real estate marketplace, kicking-off the 2019 with Series B!\nNot sure how to find a lodger? Read these tips from badi on the five things you should consider before kicking off your search and getting an advert online.\nThere are plenty of benefits to taking on a lodger; not only do you get to make a new friend, but you can also earn up to \u00a37,500 tax-free. Don\u2019t just jump straight into advertising your room though, there are plenty of things to consider before putting a notice out to find your lodger. Not sure how to find one? Here are five things to think about when trying to find a lodger\u2026\nDoes personality matter?\nIt may sound obvious, but you should really think about the type of person you want to live with before you advertise. You may think that it doesn\u2019t matter as long as they keep the place in good condition, which may well ring true if you spend a lot of time out of the house. However, most of us will want to get along with our lodger. Before looking at how to get a lodger, you\u2019ll need to decide the type of person \u2013 or persons \u2013 you\u2019d feel comfortable sharing a house with.\nCreating a checklist or profile of your ideal lodger is a great way to start the entire process. Consider their personal habits and if you\u2019re willing to put up with them, such as smoking or noise habits. Other things to consider are age, gender and if you\u2019d take on a couple as well as laying down some ground rules.\nWording the advertisement\nThe advertisement itself has a huge impact on the type of people who apply. As mentioned above, don\u2019t write your advert before considering the type of person you want to apply. Some of the information will have to be included regardless, including the size of the room and the details of the property.\nOther aspects can be targeted to suit the preferred applicant. For example, if you\u2019d prefer a student lodger, you can mention how far of a walk it is from the nearest university or the local nightlife. You might also want to include generally useful information, such as transport links.\nDo I need to declare a lodger?\nIn short: yes. There are a couple of organisations that you should contact about your plans before you begin looking for a lodger. While many mortgage agreements allow you to rent out a room, it\u2019s always good to give them a call to double check and fill them in on the details.\nAs well as your mortgage provider, you\u2019ll have to notify your insurance company to ensure your current policy covers a lodger. You\u2019ll definitely have to update your council tax too, so ensure that\u2019s updated for their move-in date.\nIn accordance to the Rent a Room Scheme, you can benefit from \u00a37,500 of tax-free income from a lodger.\nBenefits of having a lodger:\nMoney: you can earn up to \u00a37,500 per year tax-free thanks to the Rent a Room Scheme.\nSafety: Having more people in the house can improve safety, especially if you were previously living alone.\nYou make the rules: While it\u2019s a good idea to be open to compromises, you own the property and can, therefore, make the ground rules. Make sure you discuss the major points before they move in and be open to discussion.\nNew friend: You can make new friends, especially if you choose someone who you have something in common with.\nHousework: As well as getting extra income, you can get some help around the house.\nDeposit or no deposit:\nThere are a few financial factors to consider before beginning your search. While it isn\u2019t required, it\u2019s always a good idea to get a deposit before your lodger moves in. This way you can ensure any damage they cause to the property can be paid from this and you have some cover if a problem occurs.\nThe typical amount is about one month\u2019s rent, although it\u2019s up to you how much you ask for. Unlike a tenant, a lodger\u2019s deposit doesn\u2019t have to be secured in a tenancy deposit protection scheme. However, it\u2019s still important to keep this safe.\nNow that you\u2019ve considered some of the key points of getting a lodger, why not use badi to advertise your room? Our advanced AI technology and secure in-app chat makes the entire process incredibly easy. .",

        "raw_content": "Facebook Doesn't Really Know Anything Important About Me\nWe often hear how people are scared of all the data Google and Facebook are collecting about us, and how they know everything about us. But do they really?\nI agree that there is a ton of problems in the US around data brokers and how data is being collected and shared without my consent. In fact, most of the standard practices that we see in the US are illegal in many parts of Europe.\nFor instance, in my country (Denmark), companies are not allowed, by law, to share personally identifiable data with third parties. This pretty much eliminates data brokers from even existing. It's also illegal for companies to collect information about me that isn't directly related to the product I'm buying.\nIf I go down to Ford to look at a car, Ford is not allowed to write down what type of clothes I'm wearing. This data isn't relevant to buying a car and as such cannot be collected by law.\nThis is one reason why there is so much friction between US tech companies and the EU. Our definition of privacy is much, much stronger.\nBut what I don't agree with is the notion that Facebook is scary because, let's face it, it's not very good at targeting ads.\nWhen was the last time you went to Facebook and said, \"Yes, this ad is just what I wanted!\"\nRight? That almost never happens. Most of the time you say, \"Why are you showing me this crap? I will never buy this in a million years!\"\nAnd it's not just Facebook. This is true on any channel. We talk so much about big data, tracking, and advertising... but the ads aren't really that relevant.\nIn fact, Twitter recently admitted as much when their US head of sales said this:\nWe can provide the same level of deliverable results that we can with logged-in users.\nIn other words, whether they know who you are or not doesn't really change how the ad performs.\nBut let me give you a practical example.\nYou can go over to Facebook and see exactly what things it thinks you are interested in, or what it calls your 'Ad preferences'. And the result is never that good.\nHere is what Facebook thinks it knows about me.\nFirst, we have what businesses and industries it thinks I like:\nBusiness and industry: Restoration Hardware, Porsche, BBC, Internet television, SpaceX, Science, The Walt Disney Company, Facebook, Pixar, Google, Nieman Foundation for Journalism, NASA, Designer, Facebook, Developers, Futurist, Telecommunication, Mass media, Physics, Porsche Design Group.\nI do love SpaceX, NASA, futurism, and science in general. But, you have to be very specific in what you are trying to advertise before I would even consider buying anything related to those keywords.\nYes, I would probably buy a great book about the history of NASA and space exploration. No, I probably wouldn't buy a t-shirt with a picture of the moon on it.\nI also do like Disney and Pixar. I have watched every single Pixar movie ever made. In fact, I own every one of them... including the original shorts from when Pixar first started. So, it's kind of right.\nThen we have the vague categories like BBC, internet television, telecommunication, and mass media. Am I interested in those? Well... yes-ish. But I cannot imagine any ad targeting where those vague terms would appeal to me in any way.\nMy interest in the BBC, for instance, is as a media analyst. I don't have any special feelings towards any of their shows. They are good, but that's not why I'm interested in them.\nAnd then we have Porsche, but I will get back to that.\nThe next category is education, and... it's weird.\nEducation: Interaction design, founder, Sound, List of artistic media.\nYes, I am a founder of my own company, and yes, I do think interaction design is important in the digital world. But these topics are completely useless in terms of advertising. Sound? List of artistic media?? What?\nThen we have the fitness category:\nFitness and wellness: Walking.\nHere it thinks I like walking. I don't like walking at all... I find it to be absolutely boring. The only thing I hate more than walking is running. Skiing, on the other hand, now that's fun.\nThen we come to food.\nFood and drink: Gluten\nI'm quite surprised by this, considering how many times I have posted about food, but apparently, Facebook thinks I'm interested in gluten.\nNope! Not even close. In fact, my interest would be if food were gluten-free. There is quite a difference between those two things.\nThen we come to hobbies...\nHobbies and activities: Luxury vehicle, Drawing, Sports car, Porsche 911, Porsche, Panamera, Mars, Porsche Carrera GT, Image, Porsche 918, Metal, Porsche 993, Porsche 997, Porsche 911 GT2, Comic strip, Porsche 996, Porsche 934, Porsche 964, Porsche 924, Porsche 718, Porsche 968, Porsche 904, Porsche 787, Porsche 906, Porsche Supercup, Porsche RS Spyder.\nApparently, Facebook thinks I have a deep and incredible passion for Porsches. I don't. Or rather, I do like Porsche for its design, which is also why I follow Mercedes and Audi over at Instagram. But I will never actually buy a Porsche.\nIf you gave me $100,000 to buy a car, I would by a Range/Land Rover... or possibly a Jeep. I love dirt roads. In fact, when I was looking to buy my last car and I took it for a test drive, I returned it to the dealer with mud on the roof.\nI don't want a Porsche.\nThe other categories? Image, metal? What does that even mean? Although, I do like drawing and Mars.\nThen we come to my lifestyle...\nLifestyle and culture: Bible, Open Vlaamse Liberalen en Democraten, Instant messaging, Future, Porsche in motorsport, Technology (late adopters), All mobile devices, iPad Air, Tablet Owners, Smartphones and tablets, Primary Browser: Chrome, New smartphone and tablet owners, Facebook Page Admins, All Android devices, All iOS devices, Smartphone Owners, Primary OS Mac OS X, WiFi Connection, Generation X, Relationship status: single, Baekdal.com, Entrepreneurship.\nNo, Facebook. I'm not at all interested in either the Bible, the Hebrew Bible, the Book of Genesis (which you will see below). As an agnostic, I don't consider religion to have any role in my life, and I definitely don't want to be targeted with religious advertising.\nFacebook is right about me being single though, although all that seems to do is to expose me to a constant stream of dating ads, which is the most annoying form of advertising in existence. I absolutely hate dating ads (and dating sites in general). I consider them to be shallow and pointless and not what I would consider real love.\nFacebook is also right that I'm Generation X, but I also consider myself to be a digital native. So, how would targeting me with Gen-X ads be relevant to me? It wouldn't.\nAnd Facebook is obviously right that I'm interested in mobiles, tablets and those other devices. That's not really a secret, and they are way too broad for any specific targeting. But they also think i'm interested in 'Technology (late adopters)'... really, Facebook? Really?\nLate adopters??\nAnyway, let's look at news interests.\nNews and entertainment: Spotify, Visual arts, TV, Discovery Channel, Instagram, tina dickow, Disney Pixar, Walk off the Earth, mythbusters, Nieman Journalism Lab, Figment (website), Tron: Legacy, Dirty Jobs, tron, Hebrew Bible, Bratz, Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe, Garfield (character), Garfield and Friends, Book of Genesis, Garfield's Fun Fest, Tron: Uprising, Ichi (2008 film), walk off earth, Jidaigeki.\nAll of this is mostly just crap. They are topics that I only have fleeting interest in, but not in an passionate way. There are two exceptions. I love Tron and I have always loved Garfield. The rest? Meh...\nThe inclusion of Ichi (2008 movie) is a bit funny though (and a complete fail). I have never watched that movie, but in the mid-2000s, I did work with a fashion company called ICHI. So, no Facebook, I'm not interested in that movie, but I was once interested professionally in a fashion brand... but that was 10 years ago.\nPeople: Avinash Kaushik, Darren Rowse, Elon Musk, Sheryl Sandberg, Tom Clancy, Tina Dico, Carl Sagan, Chris Ryan, Michio Kaku, Mike Rowe, dr michio kaku, Isaac Asimov, Garfield, Guy Verhofstadt, Eve Ensler, Jim Davis (cartoonist), Abraham, Isaac, Sarah, Sarah Blackwood.\nThis one is actually somewhat good. Well, mostly anyway. Avinash is brilliant and always worth following on any channel, Elon Musk is inspiring, Isaac Asimov is my favorite author of all time, and I have read all of Tom Clancy's books. And Dr. Michio Kaku is always worth listening to.\nOther people like Darren Rowse, Sheryl Sandberg and Guy Verhofstadt are interesting because of their professions.\nAbraham? Eh... is that another religious reference I don't care about? And I have no idea who Eve Ensler is.\nNow we come shopping interests...\nShopping and fashion: Porsche Design, Foundry.\nUh... no. Again, I'm not going to buy a Porsche (anything)... and Foundry? What's that?\nIt's the same with what Facebook thinks are my sports and outdoor interests:\nSports and outdoors: Detroit Pistons, Sports car racing, Mutts.\nI actually had to look it up because I couldn't remember what sport the Detroit Pistons is. It's apparently a basketball team in Detroit. I'm sorry, Facebook. I have not watched a basketball game in 20 years.\nSports racing? Well... yes-ish. I do very much like the 24 hours of Le Mans, and I occasionally watch other races. But I'm not a really fan.\nAnd then we have Mutts. It's a comic strip (and a good one), but what does that have to do with sports and outdoors?\nBut, surely technology is my thing, right?\nTechnology: Cosplay, Streaming media, Electric car, Computers, Social network, Trendalyzer.\nCosplay? How is that technology? More to the point, while I am interested in cosplayers, it's not because of the actual cosplaying, but mostly because of the creativity and geeky passion they put into it.\nHere is an example of a very geeky cosplayer you might have heard about and that I like:\nWhat I love about this, is the model making/building part. I'm not really interested in the cosplaying itself. On Facebook, for instance, I also follow Volpin Probs, who is a brilliant prop maker.\nTrendalyzer is another miss of sorts.\nIf you don't know this, Trendalyzer is the tool Hans Rosling uses for his presentations, and Hans Rosling is one of my absolute heroes (but not listed under people Facebook thinks I like). So, I'm not really interested in Trendalyzer, as such. But I am interested in whatever new things Hans Rosling is working on.\nAs for the other topics? Yes, I do love the future of electric cars, and I'm obviously interested in computers (although I don't care about computer ads).\nFinally, we have travel and places:\nTravel, places and events: Merlin (rocket engine family), Yorba Linda, California, Formula One, Italy, Denmark, Outer space, Jilin, Revello.\nThis one is just completely useless.\nMerlin is the rocket engine SpaceX use, and I am very interested in SpaceX... but how is this a 'travel, places and events'?\nYorba Linda is apparently a small town in California, but I had no idea before I looked it up, and I have no idea why Facebook thinks I like that.\nFormula One? Meh.\nJilin? No idea... it's apparently a place in China close to the border of North Korea, but I had never heard about it before seeing it in this list of things Facebook thinks I'm interested in.\nItaly? Well, it's a nice country, and I have been there a couple of times. It's not my preferred travel destination though (too warm, not enough snow). And Revello? I assume they mean the small province in Italy which I have never visited, or maybe they are talking about the ice-cream which I have never tasted (especially considering I'm allergic to the milk in it).\nThe only topic that I really agree with is 'outer space'. I would love to travel to outer space one day.\nSo, you see the problem here?\nFacebook has built up this profile of things that it thinks I care about, but it doesn't really know me at all. Most of the things are something that I may have come across in the past, but it's not really something I care about. Some of the things are flat out wrong and would annoy me if they started targeting me with ads about them, while a very few topics are things I care deeply about, but in such a specific way that general advertising related to them would not be relevant anyway.\nHowever, there is one more thing Facebook completely missed about me and that is all the things they don't know about me. And with this I mean that Facebook completely fails to identify anything that is actually important to me.\nFor instance, they fail to know that I'm deeply passionate about writing. They don't understand that I have become a foodie and that I love to experiment with food. They have no understanding about my professional life except that I'm a founder at Baekdal.com. But no topic of interest links to me being a media analyst.\nAnd there are so many other topics that Facebook seems to have completely missed about me. All the topics that Facebook thinks I'm interested in are all the low-hanging fruits that aren't really that important to me. It doesn't seem to know anything about what I really care about, well, except for two or three things.\nIf you think this is bad on Facebook, all the other channels are just as bad. Over at YouTube, the 'Trending' tab is pretty much a list of all the videos I would never ever want to see.\nOn Twitter, 9 out of 10 ads I see every day are for server solutions. I don't care about server solutions. I'm a digital media analyst, not an IT worker.\nAnd on Instagram this morning, I accidentally hit the Discover tab where they recommended that I watch people fight or being in a car crash, two topics that I consider just as idiotic as all those posts about Trump we see every day.\nThis is not targeting. This is anti-targeting. This is 'let's find the most idiotic, the most shallow, and the least interesting content possible, and then recommend that'.\nA few hours later I thought I would check again, and now Instagram showed me this (but the fighting stuff was still further down the list):\nThe reason I see this is probably because I follow Dr. Paige Jarreau. She is an amazing person who has done a lot very interesting work into how scientists do science communication. And this is why I follow her as a media analyst.\nAnd I also follow her on Instagram. Here she often posts about her hobby, which is to do aerial silk. And she is very talented at it.\nBut this is not why I follow her. I follow her because of her person and her work. I don't follow her because of her personal hobby.\nInstagram, however, in its very simplistic pattern matching thinks that this is the reason. It noticed that I followed her, matched her posts to a keyword, and then decided that this is all I'm interested in as well.\nNo, Instagram. You are completely wrong about this.\nIn fact, the Instagram Discover tab is pretty much a list of accounts that I have no interest in following, ever.\nI could say the same about Google's ad targeting, where you are constantly exposed to remarketing ads that you have no interest in. This is particularly a problem when working in the media, because then, as a result of my work, I come across a lot of websites that have no relation to myself as a person.\nI can only assume, for instance, this is why Facebook thinks I'm a fan of the Detroit Pistons. I have probably looked at something in relation to it when I was analyzing a US media site.\nI'm reminded of this tweet.\nMy point is not just to bitch about the absolutely terrible way social media algorithms work and how poorly targeted they really are. It's also to illustrate that this field of interest based targeting is fundamentally flawed.\nI have written about this in several of my other articles, illustrating how advertising today completely misses the important factors, which are people's actual intent, the real reason why people connected, and the context of what we are doing.\nLook at this example from a Danish yachting magazine with ads for a safari in Africa or a plane trip to Las Vegas.\nI can only assume they are matching... uhm... 'vacation'? Maybe?\nSo, they are suggesting that because I'm interested in going on a vacation, I should jump on a plane and fly to a place where there is no water anywhere... on a yachting magazine site?\nThis is a joke, people. This doesn't work.\nAnd I'm increasingly coming to the conclusion that we are simply heading in the wrong direction here. I don't think we can fix this by just optimizing the data and refining the algorithms.\nTo me, it seems this is fundamentally flawed and that we are simply looking at the wrong signals. And it's not just the ads, it's also how our social feeds are algorithmically ranked. The content that we see isn't bad, but it's also not that good.\nI wrote about this previously, where I illustrated how ranking four different fruits often leads to the mediocre one being chosen as the best one. On social channels this means you get to see a ton of rather mediocre content that a lot of people engage with, but you rarely see the really good stuff because those are too niche and too narrow to get the engagement they need to be ranked.\nWe need a different solution here, because we are optimizing for the wrong thing.\nI don't know what that solution is, of course. If I did I would be a billionaire by now. But the first step to solving a problem is to realize that we have a problem, and that we are heading in the wrong direction.\nWe are focusing too much on what and who people are. And almost nothing on why.\nLet's try to change that.",

        "title": "Dental Implant Surgery Huntsville, AL | What to Expect",
        "raw_content": "Dental Implant Surgery Huntsville, AL\nAt Balmoral Dental Center, we can provide you with dental implant surgery to replace your missing tooth. Even though oral health care has improved, the majority of adults still lose at least one tooth during their lifetime. Whether this is due to old age, an accident, or gum disease, we have the most durable solution for replacing your teeth. This is the only procedure that replaces both your lost root and tooth, since dentures and dental bridges only replace the visible portion of your tooth. In order to place implants, we must conduct dental implant surgery, where a titanium post is inserted under the gums and secured to the jawbone. The bone and metal will fuse together through the process of osseointegration, creating a durable root system for your new tooth (crown) to be attached to. If you are considering this procedure, we encourage you to call (256) 660-3094 to schedule a consultation with our Huntsville dental office.\nOn the day you visit our Alabama dental office for surgery, you will be given anesthesia so you will not feel anything while the implant is being placed. The procedure itself can take anywhere from 30 minutes for a single implant to several hours. If you are having multiple teeth replaced with implants, we will let you know how long the process will take and whether or not you will need to have it completed over the course of two appointments.\nGiven that dental implant surgery is an invasive process, you can expect to have some swelling and sensitivity after the fact. While perfectly natural, you must take good care of your mouth in order to prevent an infection or unnecessary irritation. We suggest taking ibuprofen to decrease swelling and manage discomfort. You can also use an icepack or cold compress for 15 minutes at a time. At Balmoral Dental Center, we generally recommend taking a couple of days off work while you are recovering. After two to five days, you should feel normal again, though your gums may remain slightly sensitive for a little longer.\nCheck out what others are saying about our dental implant surgery services on Yelp: Dental Implant Surgery Huntsville.\nWe recommend you eat foods that are soft and easy to chew or that require no chewing at all. A perfect example would be yogurt, warm soup, ice cream, smoothies, and steamed vegetables. our dentist can provide you with a more detailed list during your pre-operative consultation. You should also be sure to avoid food difficult to chew, like steak, or things that are sharp, like tortilla chips, since they can further irritate your gum tissue.\nMost of our Huntsville patients report feeling normal within a week of dental implant surgery. The first couple of days will be the most uncomfortable, but every day you should feel slightly better, and ibuprofen or Tylenol should be enough to increase your comfort.\nWhen you come in for a consultation, our dentist can provide you with a good idea of when your new tooth will be attached. For the most part, we wait until the process of osseointegration has taken place and the titanium post has integrated into the jawbone. This provides the most durable base to attach your new crown to. Typically, this process can take anywhere from three to six months to complete, though there are other options we can explore if you are on a tight timeframe. To ensure your smile is intact while you wait, we can provide you with a temporary denture to wear. The denture will be attached using wires, similar to a retainer, and can come out whenever you want it to. This way, your smile will appear intact until we are ready to secure your new tooth (crown) in place. We will schedule you for a follow up visit to inspect your implant and give you a better idea of how the healing process is going at that time.\nYes, at Balmoral Dental Center, we place implants on a regular basis, giving them to patients who are tired of wearing removable dentures and want something more permanent. Since dentures can easily slip out of place, switching to implants can make it easier to eat, speak, and engage in normal daily activities. If you have worn dentures for some time, you may be suffering from resorption. If this is the case, your jawbone may not have sufficient density to support an implant. In this case, we may recommend a bone graft prior to getting started. To discuss this further, call 256-660-3094 and schedule an examination. After physically examining your teeth and taking x-rays, we can create a full treatment plan for you.\nBefore you can begin, we need to examine you and take x-rays to determine the density of your jawbone. This appointment will be non-invasive and comfortable. We can present you with all of the options available to you and discuss the ins and outs of each treatment solution. This will allow you to ask questions and select the option that is best for you. To get started, call our Huntsville dental office at (256) 660-3094.",

        "title": "Survey Says 2/3 of Churchgoers Have Invited Someone to Church \u2013 BCNN1 WP",
        "raw_content": "Survey Says 2/3 of Churchgoers Have Invited Someone to Church\nNearly two-thirds of Protestant churchgoers say they\u2019ve invited at least one person to visit their church in the past six months, according to a new LifeWay Research study.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a fairly easy thing for churchgoers to do,\u201d said Scott McConnell, executive director of LifeWay Research, based in Nashville. \u201cIn any six-month stretch, there are major Christian holidays and often other special events that are perfect occasions for churchgoers to invite friends and acquaintances.\u201d\nChurchgoers were asked how often they had invited an individual or a family to attend a worship service with them in the last six months. They could include repeated invitations to the same people as well as invitations that were turned down.\nSeventeen percent said they extended an invitation. Twenty-one percent extended two invitations, while 25 percent extended three or more. Nine percent said they didn\u2019t know how many invitations they extended.\nThree out of 10, meanwhile, said they didn\u2019t invite anyone (29 percent).\n\u201cThat\u2019s a pretty substantial number,\u201d McConnell said. \u201cFor a number of churchgoers, inviting people to church isn\u2019t on their radar.\u201d\nChurch invitations were harder to come by in some parts of the country. Forty-two percent of churchgoers in the Northeast said they hadn\u2019t invited anyone, while 37 percent of Midwesterners skipped the invitations. By contrast, only 24 percent of Southerners and 26 percent of those in the West said they hadn\u2019t invited anyone.\nInvitations, by denomination\nChurchgoers who attend Assemblies of God or other Pentecostal churches (71 percent) and those who attend nondenominational churches (69 percent) were more likely to say they had invited at least one person to church. Lutherans (55 percent) and Methodists (53 percent) were less likely.\nForty-three percent of Methodists said they had not invited anyone, as did 41 percent of Lutherans. Fewer nondenominational (20 percent), Baptist (22 percent) or Assemblies of God/Pentecostal (23 percent) churchgoers skipped invitations.\nChurchgoers who were Baptist (31 percent) or Assemblies of God/Pentecostal (30 percent) were more likely to have invited three or more people than Lutherans (17 percent) or Methodists (15 percent).\nNot surprisingly, the more often people went to church, the more likely they were to invite someone to go along. Twenty-seven percent of people who attend at least once a week had invited three or more people. That dropped to 10 percent for those who attended once or twice a month.\nNearly half of those who attend services once or twice a month had not invited anyone to go with them (46 percent).

I was surprised by how hard it was. It seemed to take a long time before I noticed any results from it. I don\u2019t know why I kept going back.\nMy knee had been keeping me from running. Winter had set in, I\u2019d put my bike away. I went through four or five instructors before I found one I liked. For some reason, I stuck with it.\nAside from the great toning, it washes away the stress of the day, or the week. It loosens the kinks from sitting at a computer, driving too long, working too long.

        "raw_content": "Injectable hyaluronic acid products are \u201cfillers\u201d used to fill in wrinkles and depressions such as acne scars. Hyaluronic acid is a substance produced in the dermis of the human skin that becomes depleted over time as one ages. Hyaluronic acid is able to hold 1000 times its own weight in water and is widely seen to contribute to the plumpness and fullness of the skin. These products are widely used to fill in the creases from the nose to the mouth, acne scars, chicken pox scars, plump lips, and lift the corners of the mouth in those individuals with a frowning appearance. These products are not used to fill in sullen cheeks, thin skin on the back of the hand, or thin wrinkles such as seen around the eyes.\nThese products are injected into the second layer of the skin with or without anesthesia. As this can be quite a painful procedure, topical, local, or regional anesthesia is usually recommended. Topical anesthesia may be done with topical EMLA 1 hour prior or LMX .5 hours prior to the procedure. Local anesthesia is usually not done because those injections may distort the region intended to be filled with the substance. Regional anesthesia is usually done by dental blocks as is usually done by the dentist. Other than anesthesia, there is no other preoperative procedure that must occur.\nThe effects of the injections are immediate and are often overemphasized since swelling and redness acutely accompany the injection. There is no post-operative care that must be undertaken by the patient after injections except for ice packs that may be placed on the area immediately after the injection and for some times afterwards to minimize swelling, redness, and pain.\nThe effects of the injections should last for 5-8 months. Complications of the injections include pain, bleeding, bruising, lumpiness, or unevenness. In addition, rarer and more serious complications such as arterial occlusion and/or skin necrosis may occur. The effects of the injections are temporary, and any unevenness or lumpiness will resolve within 5-8 months. Corrections or modifications should be done 2-4 weeks after the initial injections in order to assess the final appearance prior to re-injection.\nHyaluronic acid dermal fillers are an excellent adjunct to laser therapy or botulinum toxin therapy (Botox) for anti-aging treatments.\nRead more about the Cosmetic Treatments and Dermal Fillers.\nStill have questions about the filler treatments we offer?

        "raw_content": "1 August 2000 PCB Levels in Laminated Coastal Sediments of the Baltic Sea along Gradients of Eutrophication Revealed by Stable Isotopes (\u03b415N, \u03b413C)\nMarkus Meili, Per Jonsson, Rolf Carman\nA systematic investigation of PCB in coastal sediments of the Baltic Sea was initiated in 1996 by retrieving dated subsurface layers (1992\u20131994) from 88 sites in 19 sheltered archipelago areas, where laminated sediments were found to be common. PCBs7 (HELCOM's standard sum of 7 congeners, \u22481/6 of total PCB) was quantified, as well as the abundance and isotopic composition of nutrients (N, C), in order to trace effects of eutrophication and potential influences on the turnover of PCB. In most of the areas, the median of PCBs7/C was within 70 to 120 ng g\u22121 C. This is similar to recent values in regional offshore sediments, and thus consistent with a rapid exchange between coastal and open waters. Elevated PCBs7 levels up to around 1000 ng g\u22121 C were found within 50 km from Stockholm. Here, but not in other areas, PCBs7/C increased linearly with the degree of eutrophication. This was evident from the isotopic composition of sediment N and C, reflecting local eutrophication as well as its link to freshwater input. In contrast, concentrations or ratios of nutrients in sediments were poor indicators of eutrophication. Our results demonstrate that the Stockholm watershed still is a source of both PCB and excess nutrients to the Baltic Sea, but do not support any enrichment or dilution of PCBs7/C ratios caused by eutrophication.\nMarkus Meili, Per Jonsson and Rolf Carman \"PCB Levels in Laminated Coastal Sediments of the Baltic Sea along Gradients of Eutrophication Revealed by Stable Isotopes (\u03b415N, \u03b413C),\" AMBIO: A Journal of the Human Environment 29(4), (1 August 2000). https://doi.org/10.1579/0044-7447-29.4.282\n\"PCB Levels in Laminated Coastal Sediments of the Baltic Sea along Gradients of Eutrophication Revealed by Stable Isotopes (\u03b415N, \u03b413C),\" 29(4)",

At two years old, he quickly mastered reading fluently using phonics and was speaking Japanese by the age of three. At the age of six he became the youngest person in the world to study Philosophy and History at the prestigious University of Oxford in England, gaining a distinction in both subjects.\nHis father, Knox Daniel, said he first noticed his son was clever when he was sitting on his lap while on the computer. \u201cI started telling him what the letters on the keyboard were and I realized that he was remembering and could understand.\u201d\nHe could read, write and understand the alphabet and point to different colors on a chart when he was just ten months old.\n(Joshua at age 6)\nIn 2011, his father wanted to challenge his son, so he wrote to the university to see if he could participate in a philosophy course for bright children between the age of eight and thirteen. They agreed, and Joshua was the youngest student ever accepted. He even passed with distinction.\nNamed one of the smartest kids in the world, the now 12-years-old is far too academically advanced to attend third grade with his peers and is homeschooled instead.\nSo, what does a super scholar study? Joshua excels at science, math, history, foreign languages and history. He dreams of being a neurosurgeon and is well on his way by practicing gall bladder removals and appendectomy procedures.\n\u201cSince the age of four, I was on my dad\u2019s laptop and it had a body simulator where I would pull out organs. I want to save the earth. I want to change the world and change peoples ideas to doing the right things about earth.\u201d\nHe also plans to be an astronaut and is currently writing a children\u2019s book about Egypt.\nWhen he isn\u2019t studying and achieving more than many adults, Joshua also serves as the face of the National Autistic Society\u2019s Black and Minority (BME) campaign. Diagnosed with high functioning autism himself, Joshua helps to spread the campaign\u2019s mission of highlighting obstacles blacks face when trying to obtain access to necessary autism support and services.\nAccording to a 2011 study, Autism and the African American Community, \u201cevidence demonstrates that although rates of diagnosis for autism occur at the same rates in all racial groups, diagnosis in African American children occurs later than in White children. As a result, African American children may require longer and more intensive intervention.\u201d\nIn between studying to be the youngest neurosurgeon, Joshua enjoys fund-raising for three Autism Charities, one in the U.K and two in Africa, and campaigns to save the environment.\nBetween medical school and the years associated with that, Joshua should reach his goal of being named Doctor within the next two years.\nYoung Joshua is definitely living proof that no obstacle is too great to keep you from achieving greatness.",

        "raw_content": "Home / News & Events / Second Star To The Right\nI\u2019m trying something I\u2019ve never really tried before, in terms of writing, and it\u2019s scaring the hell out of me.\nI\u2019m forward planning.\nAs I write the copies of Folk\u2019d Up have just arrived from the printer, although I left work too early to intercept the courier from Blackstaff offices; I had to leave a message with the reception guy to hold them for me.\nSounds simple, doesn\u2019t it? This is the same guy who went out for a fag a few weeks ago and accidentally locked 700 people in a building behind him as he did so. When this was \u2013 I felt, under the circumstances \u2013 extremely reasonably pointed out to him by office workers hanging out of first-floor windows (i.e. without the use of objects hurtling toward his head) his response was an annoyed grunt that his fag break had been cut short.\nSo you\u2019ll understand if I greet tomorrow morning with some trepidation that the big papery thing tied up with string hasn\u2019t been deposited into the big shreddy thing, or used as bog roll, although I do hear that chapter 5 is soft, strong and thoroughly absorbent.\nI can\u2019t wait to get my hands on a copy. I especially can\u2019t wait to press it tightly against a copy of book 1, so tightly in fact that I\u2019m more or less forcing them to have sex with one another, then turn them on their side and read their spines, run my fingers along their soft yielding edges, and go \u2018oooooohhhhh\u2019.\nWow. That sentence ended up in a dark place, huh? No wonder my child-minding business went bust.\nI still have the spectral presence of book 3, Completely Folk\u2019d, on the horizon, and man, that one is gonna be a beast. The last thing I want is for this whole thing to land with a spluf. Or a gwlt. Or a pfhl. I\u2019m using those onomatopoeic words in this blog because Blackstaff keep deleting them from my novels by the way. You can\u2019t touch this blog, motherf**kers! Anyway \u2013 I want the whole trilogy to hit you right between the eyes with a Thud! Boosh! Smack!\nChrist, this is turning into an Adam West era \u201cBatman\u201d episode.\nWorrying as that challenge is, book 3 is at least already written in some format. It\u2019ll be rewritten, perhaps quite extensively, but \u2019tis always easier to refine than to invent.\nNo, the forward-planning I speak of isn\u2019t for Folk\u2019d, but for life post-Folk\u2019d.\nIt\u2019s weird because although fantasy & sci-fi are so often lumped together \u2013 especially with these new terms of \u201cgeek\u201d or \u201cgenre\u201d or \u201ccult\u201d fiction being bandied about \u2013 they really are quite different from one another. I would have always counted myself as more a sci-fi nut than a fantasy nerd, and yet my first big success story has been firmly planted in the fantasy genre.\nMy next venture, though, is going right back to sci-fi. The future, in fact. And that\u2019s what scares the hell out of me, because I have a sneaking suspicion I\u2019m going to get a few speculative guesses wrong. You might have noticed, for instance, that we don\u2019t currently go everywhere on moving pavements, we don\u2019t have domestic robot servants who take care of all that pesky ironing and washing-up, and WHERE THE F**K ARE MY F**KING HOVERBOARDS, NASA???!!! F**K MARS! F**K EUROPA! DID YOU SEE HOW COOL THOSE THINGS LOOKED???\nI remember reading one of Jules Verne\u2019s lesser known stories set in the future (the 2100s I think) and what struck me was how much everyone in it blathered on about what life must have been like in 1890s Paris (apologies if I\u2019m getting some small details wrong here, I can\u2019t be arsed to Wikipedia it). Of course, ol\u2019 Jules himself lived in Paris, and he wrote the story in the 1890s. It suddenly hit me \u2013 this is our problem, isn\u2019t it? You look at Star Trek time travel episodes from the classic series; oh look a time warp\u2026to America in the 1960s.\nWe always try and interpret the future through an obsession with what the world is like now; when was the last time anyone, anywhere, really gave a toss what life was like anywhere in the 1890s, let alone in Paris? The fact is, something completely unforeseeable is going to come along and blow our predictions out of the water. The Internet, the mobile phone, the iPod \u2013 all seemed to explode overnight, and all of them changed the world. No author can realistically hope to get much right when peering into the looking-glass of things that have not yet come to pass.\nTruth is, though, I shouldn\u2019t worry. Getting the details right doesn\u2019t matter \u2013 telling a good story matters, and nothing else. So, f**k it. I\u2019m going to set my story in 2091, far enough away that \u2013 fingers crossed \u2013 everyone reading this blog in 2014 will be long dead by the time that year rolls around. I\u2019m going to throw mad ideas at the wall not for the sake of throwing mad ideas at the wall \u2013 oh alright, a little bit for that \u2013 but to see if I can get them to serve the characters and the plot.\nI\u2019m going to introduce a team of people, one at a time, each one with a remarkable ability borne out of a horrible consequence of rampant technological advance.\nI\u2019m going to have them team up. There will be derring-do. There will be piss-taking on an epic scale. Quite possibly one of the characters may be a super-intelligent monkey.\nAnd by God as my witness, THERE WILL BE HOVERBOARDS!!!!!",

Heh, kind of cool to see people are actually interested enough to keep checking back over long periods of time, even though content tends to be pretty sub-par. And then when I do put out quality stuff, \u201cI can\u2019t be bothered to read stories\u201d. You should, though. I\u2019ve been told it\u2019s pretty good.\nAlso makes me awfully self-conscious though. People are watching my every word, it\u2019s no longer just an internet rant-box or something. What if my parents are still lurking, too? Oh my.\nI don\u2019t really have anything private on here though, I wouldn\u2019t ever dare. My older posts are just about the limit of shamefulness I\u2019ll allow on here. Really though, the blog\u2019s just an extension of me, of my voice.

        "title": "The Fool on the Hill: The Winter Palace as philosophical object",
        "raw_content": "The first little pig built his house of straw, and so did I.\nI've written previously about this house as structure and as politics. Now it's time to write about it as a philosophical statement, and as a philosophical statement, the fact that it is built of straw is significant.\nIt's not actually built from straw grown in my own field; it was meant to be, but as I have written earlier in 2011, due to heavy rain through the back end of the year, my barley crop failed and I was unable to harvest straw. So, actually, there are 'food miles' - litres of diesel consumed - in transporting straw. But not many.\nSimilarly, the timbers of my roof were not actually cut in my own wood. They could have been, but I have few trees which are yet big enough and in any case there would not have been time to season the timber. The roof lining is plywood from Finland, so more food miles - but it is at least spruce plywood, so the same species as most of my own trees. The floor planking is tropical hardwood, from Malaysia. But it was imported fifty or more years ago, to form the floor of a school in Glasgow; I have it second hand, literally recycled. Counted in terms of cost to the planet, my re-use of the floor planking seems to me to be better than free: carbon that would otherwise have been put back into the cycle is conserved out of cycle, for now. The bearers are of oak, but again it's re-used, second hand railway sleepers, and in any case I've personally planted thousands of oak trees - to use some oak seems to me justifiable. Apart from that, all the timber in this building is spruce and larch produced in Scotland. There are food miles, but not in the global scale of things many.\nFurthermore, all of these materials - except the Malay hardwood - are local to this landscape. The render on the walls, of clay, is also local to this landscape. When I cease to maintain the building, when the roof starts to rot (as it will) and ceases to be watertight, when water gets into the straw and rots it too, the building will revert very quickly into compost - into fertile soil from which new trees will grow. Within fifty years, it will be gone completely, leaving no trace. The impact of this building on this landscape is extraordinarily light.\nThe stranger in this woodpile is, of course, glass. The front of the building has a lot of glass. The back window, also, obviously, has glass. Less obviously, both floor and roof are stuffed with glass fibre insulation. I would hope that when I'm gone someone will rob out those window units and re-use them somewhere else, but if they don't, glass is fundamentally only silica which is itself native to this landscape.\nStill, I don't like the idea of leaving behind panes of glass which may break, become hidden in debris, and later cause injury to passing animals or people.\nThere's also copper - a small amount in electrical cables and a more significant amount in plumbing - but that is precious metal and one can be reasonably confident that that will be robbed out and re-used. My good enamelled steel bath is also an asset which I'm sure someone will re-use for something, even if it is only as a water trough for animals.\nSo yes, it isn't perfect. This is not the platonic eco-house. It would have been better had I used sheep-wool as insulation, and better still if I had come up with some more bio-degradable solution to glazing. But for all that, this house is light on the land; this house will leave little trace. And I'm proud of that.",

        "raw_content": "Currently, information professionals have to face to projects such as institutional repositories, exhibitions or social networks everyday. However, are we aware of the importance of taking this type of courses in the LIS curriculum? Definitely, it requires a major reflection due to the fact that user needs are constantly changing and students need to be familiar with this managerial technique. However, what is project management? Do we know what this concept means? In this line, I would like to start from the beginning.\nAccording to Liz MacLachlan, \u201cadopting a project management approach can help. Think of each task as a project \u2013 define your objectives, plan the timescale, allocate resources, monitor progress and evaluate what you have achieved\u201d (Making project management work for you, p. IX). In this regard, project management requires planning, implementing and closing stages in which time, cost, risk and people managing are key elements. As a result, are we truly trained in this technique? Is it compulsory in all of the LIS programs? Have all of university departments of Library and Information Science built project management into their curriculum? What is more, may managerial courses have a positive effect on the programs quality inasmuch as they are addressed to the highest positions?\nOn the other hand, what is the information professionals\u2019 opinion? Their professional experience can be significantly more interesting than we have ever thought. It is their daily routine and participation as project stakeholders that may help LIS students to acquire the core skills.\nBased upon this reflection, this study aims at getting an overview of project management courses in the Library and Science programs, which means the use of technological information sources as well as contact by email. Additionally, information and opinions gathered from librarians will be included in the study. As a result, Heads of LIS departments will have a deep knowledge of skills required and how people are currently managing library projects.",

        "raw_content": "3 Ways to Integrate Account-Based Marketing Into Your Sales Practices\nNow that you have discovered the benefits of using an account-based marketing (ABM) strategy to maximize your available marketing and sales resources by developing personalized campaigns for targeted accounts, it's time to focus on how you can further integrate ABM into your sales practices. Through the integration process with sales, you'll be able to develop a deeper understanding of each account in order to enhance how you personalize all marketing communications with those accounts going forward.\nThe result can be increased revenues and referrals from those accounts as their satisfaction with their experience rises.\nHere are three ways that you can integrate ABM into your sales practices:\nAvailable tools and platforms facilitate the integration process between ABM and your sales processes. This includes platforms that automate and update lead and contact information so everyone has the same current data on the accounts. Technology can also streamline marketing campaigns and provide a way to collaborate on the production of these campaigns. For example, this can include getting immediate feedback from sales on the visuals and content that marketing has developed, which is then shared across both teams.\nAnother area that technology can assist with in terms of integration would be the ability to deliver action-oriented insights from the data collected during the marketing and sales processes. The analytics can be divided and segmented into different metrics to understand the impact that certain ABM strategies had in assisting sales with lead generation as well as conversion.\nThis capability also includes customized reports on each account, drilling farther down to illustrate how the personalization efforts have impacted the results with that account. Having this information can serve as the map that both marketing and sales need to see how they can work together to improve the efforts that both make to winning new customers and keeping existing ones.\nShortening the learning curve for your marketing and sales teams through training can speed up the integration process between ABM and your sales system. The introduction of the aforementioned new technology also precipitates the need for training. our teams need to understand how ABM works and what it can achieve for sales.\nFirst, your teams need to understand how ABM works and what it can achieve for sales. This gives them the rationale they need to be willing to change habits and processes that they might have been using prior to this move to the ABM approach. Second, providing hands-on training of any new technology gives them the framework for what type of integration is possible that will save them time and reduce any redundancies across functions. It will also show them how the integration can produce more insights that will help them achieve better results.\nThe faster you can ramp up their understanding of what and how to integrate ABM and sales, the faster those results will come for the organization. Through their training, they may even realize other aspects of what they do that can be integrated to speed the personalization of marketing and sales for each account.\nWhile technology and training can provide the pathway to integration between ABM and sales processes, it is up to the people within those functions to truly make it happen. To be successful requires communication and collaboration between those on both teams. This starts with regularly sharing what each team is doing in conjunction with each account to determine how they might combine efforts to improve the experience for that account.\nThis will also help to ensure that both marketing and sales are speaking the same language so the accounts don't become confused by interaction with both.\nScheduling meetings as well as checking in on a one-on-one basis helps everyone understand the latest information on that account and showcases the results of the integration efforts. Ideas and feedback can then be implemented based on the previous efforts to determine how to further integrate. Doing this in a stepwise fashion can ensure the integration process works and helps everyone on both teams get acclimated to the changes that result.\nThe sales staff can provide their insights to marketing about why and when an account wanted to buy, which enables marketing to more effectively plan their campaigns for specific times of the year based on that information. Making that information available through a collaborative platform furthers the integration of the processes that both teams enact, helping to get more results within less time and using fewer resources.\nContinual Process\nIntegration doesn't happen overnight between sales and marketing, and it doesn't end at some point. Instead, consider integration as an ongoing evolution for your organization that will occur over time. Each step you take toward integrating ABM into your sales processes will incrementally change what your teams are doing and result in measurable performance improvements.\nBe patient, thoughtful, and open to the integration process that requires technology, training, communication, and collaboration to optimize the benefits you'll get from doing so.\nWhen asked, a third of marketing organizations say their biggest challenge is maintaining personalized and consistent interactions with their customers.

It is historically accurate to say that Islam swept across the Persian and Byzantine empires as well as across northern Africa and into Spain. The new religion seems to have been a breath of fresh air to the citizens of those empires.\nThe Persian and Byzantine Empires had both been weakened by years of warfare against other neighboring empires. They had overreached themselves as the Romans had before them. They had conquered people of other nationalities and ethnicities and had imposed their political rule over them and incorporated them into their armies. This made the armies larger but weakened their unity and destroyed a common vision that all men could ascribe to.

        "raw_content": "Vodafone, Idea may have a new brand name after merger\nThe merger will create India\u2019s largest mobile phone operator by subscribers and revenue market share Devina Sengupta&Delshad Irani | ET Bureau | February 12, 2018, 08:54 IST\nVodafone India and Idea Cellular, India\u2019s second-and thirdranked telcos that are merging, are working on a new name and brand identity for the combined entity, which may come into effect a year after the transaction closes, people familiar with the matter said.\n\u201cThere will be a new brand identity \u2014 work has started on it,\u201d a senior consultant working on the merged company\u2019s new identity said, speaking on the condition of anonymity due to non-disclosure agreements. The UK-based Vodafone and the Kumar Mangalam Birla-owned Idea are chalking out a new positioning that will attract customers and retain the recall value associated with both the parent companies, according to the people.\nThe two companies didn\u2019t respond to ET\u2019s emailed queries. The merger will create India\u2019s largest mobile phone operator by subscribers and revenue market share. The companies expect the deal to close in the first half of 2018, though experts said it may come through by March-April. The companies are in the final leg of getting regulatory approvals for the merger, which will allow them to better take on Reliance Jio Infocomm and current No. 1 telco Bharti Airtel in an intensely competitive market that has eroded revenue, profit and cash flows.\n\u201cA new brand will help them start afresh without any baggage,\u201d said Jessie Paul, chief executive officer of marketing advisory firm Paul Writer in Bengaluru. \u201cWith Vodafone\u2019s strength in its urban circles and Idea Cellular\u2019s in rural areas, a new brand from scratch makes more sense.\u201d In March 2017, both the companies said that the brand strategy of the combined company will be developed in due course and will leverage customers\u2019 affinity for the existing brands, built up over the past decade.\nSenior executives in the telcos aware of the developments said it will be a while before any new brand is rolled out. \u201cNothing is locked as of now and all options are open. We are veering towards maintaining status quo for at least one year,\u201d said a senior executive aware of the developments at one of the telcos. \u201cIt\u2019s very likely that one unified brand will emerge,\u201d said a senior executive at an advertising firm that has worked with one of the telcos. \u201cThe operational chaos that would ensue as a result of a new brand, however, would be a major issue, naturally.\u201d\nIdea and Vodafone India have hired Aon to chalk out salary structures, pulled in Bain Consultants to advise on overall strategies and have roped in leadership management company Spencer Stuart to shortlist candidates for major roles in the combined entity.\nTags : Business of Brands, Merger, Vodafone, Kumar mangalam birla, industry, idea, Brand identity",

        "raw_content": "It didn't take long for things to get out of hand for the White Sox last night. Mike Mussina set the Sox down in order on ten pitches in the top of the first thanks to a great running catch at the 385 ft. sign by Melky Cabrera and three called strikes on Jim Thome.\nIn the bottom of the first, Johnny Damon hit an 0-2 pitch to third base which spun away from Josh Fields, forcing him to reach for the ball and giving Damon time to reach with an infield single. On an 0-2 count to the next batter, Derek Jeter appeared to go around on a check swing, but was ruled not to have swung, robbing Contreras of a strikeout. In the previous inning, Thome had complained to home plate umpire Phil Cuzzi when strike two from Mussina appeared to be a bit high, then, after taking a pitch on the inside corner for a ball, was called out on another high pitch that he though was ball four. When Jeter's swing was declared checked by first-base ump Tom Hallion, White Sox pitching coach Don Cooper and manager Ozzie Guillen started arguing from the dugout. Phil Cuzzi, who has a reputation for being an instigator, responded to the White Sox's taunts and, before anyone knew what was happening, Cuzzi tossed Guillen from the game.\nGuillen came out onto the field to get his money's worth from Cuzzi, repeatedly, and colorfully imploring him to do his job at home plate rather than get in the middle of a disagreement between the White Sox bench and the first base ump, but it was all just bottle rockets before the real fireworks.\nGiven a stay of execution, Jeter singled up the middle and, two pitches later, Bobby Abreu crushed a home run into the upper deck in left. After Alex Rodriguez flied out to deep right, Hideki Matsui added solo shot into section 41 of the right field bleachers to make it 4-0 Yankees. Jorge Posada added a double before Contreras was able to get the last two outs on fly balls to left center.\nMike Mussina gave up a three-run home run to Juan Uribe in the top of the second to make the game momentarily close at 4-3 as Contreras set the Yankees down in order in the bottom of the second, striking out Melky Cabrera and Johnny Damon along the way. Mussina returned serve with a nine-pitch, all-strikes top of the third, and the Yankees broke it open in the bottom half, driving Contreras from the game with a three-run homer by Robinson Cano. Knuckleballing relief pitcher Charlie Haeger was greeted by an error by Juan Uribe, who booted an Andy Phillips grounder, then recovered only to have the webbing tear out of Paul Konerko's glove allowing Phillips to reach base. That was followed by a two-run home run by Melky Cabrera that made it 9-3 Yanks after three.\nFrom there things just got silly. Jorge Posada hit a two-run homer off Haeger in the fourth. Matsui added a two-run jack off Gavin Floyd in the sixth. With Floyd taking one for the team, Johnny Damon hit his first home run since June 26 in the seventh. Two batters later, defensive replacement Shelley Duncan followed with a solo shot of his own that set the final score at 16-3.\nIn addition to being Duncan's fourth home run in 21 major league at-bats, Duncan's tater was the Yankees' eighth of the game, tying the franchise record set on June 28, 1939 when Joe DiMaggio and Babe Dahlgren each hit two and Bill Dickey, Joe Gordon, Tommy Henrich, and George Selkirk each hit one. Duncan was also the seventh Yankee to homer in the game, tying an American League record held by three other teams. The Yankees have now scored 54 runs in their last three games in Yankee Stadium. I don't know if that's any kind of record, but it sure sounds like one.\nAlex Rodriguez, who entered the game with 499 career home runs, did not hit a home run. Nor did he get a hit. He did, however, hit a lot of warning-track bombs, one of which Jermaine Dye made a great catch on while running face-first into the wall in right. After his last at-bat, Rodriguez gave his bat to a very excited kid in a blue sleeveless shirt behind the Yankee dugout. That bat won't make it to the Hall of Fame, but the next one off the rack just might.\nHidden behind all those homers was a strong performance by the Yankee hurlers who allowed no runs beyond that Uribe homer. Together Mussina, Kyle Farnsworth (who was booed when announced in the seventh inning and responded by retiring the side on eight pitches, six strikes), Mike Myers, and Sean Henn allowed eight hits, walked none, struck out eight, and threw 84 of 122 pitches for strikes (69 percent). By comparison, Contreras allowed seven runs on eight hits and a walk in just 2 2/3 innings.\nThe Yankees are 4-3 against the White Sox thus far this season and most recently took three of four from the Chisox in Chicago in early June. This week's three-game series marks the Sox's only visit to the Bronx on the season. Since the Yanks were last in Chicago, the Sox have gone 22-27 (.449), which is a pretty close match for their overall winning percentage of .457. That's just what this team is. The Sox have won three of their last four series, losing to Boston, but beating the Indians, Tigers, and Blue Jays, still, they're a mere 8-7 over that stretch. One thing that has changed is that the Sox are finally scoring some runs, scoring 5.21 runs per game in July after scoring just 3.90 per game over the first three months of the season. Of course, they've started allowing runs too, giving up 6.11 per game in July after allowing 4.68 per game through the end of June.\nAnd so it goes for the White Sox, who have tossed in the towel by flipping free-agent-to-be Tad Iguchi to Philadelphia where he'll fill the second base hole vacated by Chase Utley's broken hand. Twenty-four-year-old lefty Danny Richar, whom the Chisox picked up from the Diamondbacks in a swap of minor leaguers back in mid-June, and veteran backup Alex Cintron will look to fill that hole for the Pale Hose now. The Sox were unable to deal fellow pending free agent Jermaine Dye, however, or tonight's starter Jose Contreras.\nNo surprise about Contreras, who has been awful since the end of May. After posting a 3.71 ERA in his first nine starts, six of which were quality starts, Contreras has posted a 8.27 ERA and a 1-9 record over his last 11, only three of which have been quality starts. Limit it to his last eight starts and that ERA swells to 9.32, and 11.05 over his last five (all loses). Things have just taken a nose dive from there. Here's Contreras's line in his last two starts combined:\n12 IP, 22 H, 19 R, 6 BB, 5 K, 3 HR\nEl Titan de Bronze has actuall pitched fairly well against his former team in two starts this year (14 IP, 9 H, 7 R, 5 ER, 4 BB, 11 K, O HR) despite losing both, but one assumes some correction will occur to that line tonight.\nMike Mussina's two starts against the White Sox have been more of a mixed bag, but in his last he locked horns with Contreras and hurled six innings, allowing just one run on four hits, no walks, and no homers. Chances are Moose, who will looking for his first quality start in three tries, won't be quite that sharp tonight, but it shouldn't take much to outpitch Contreras.\nNote: I'll update this post with news of the roster changes resulting from the Betemit deal when I have them. Peter Abraham reports that Phil Hughes is in the Bronx and will pitch on Saturday, but he doesn't say that Hughes has been activated yet. The Yanks could just let Betemit replace Proctor and let Hughes replace Chris Basak on Saturday, but I'd imagine they'll farm out Basak for a stop-gap reliever before game time.\nUpdate: No moves today. Proctor is gone, but Betemit isn't here yet and the Yanks will play a man short for tonight as a result.\nWilson Betemit for Scott Proctor\nAs we inch toward the 4:00 pm trading deadline, the Yankees have made what could turn out to be their only deadline deal by sending Scott Proctor back to the Dodgers for infielder Wilson Betemit. This trade impresses me in several ways:\nFirst, this is not a win-now trade. Rather than giving up prospects for middle relievers of dubious value, the Yankees have traded a 30-year-old middle reliever of dubious value for a 25-year-old infielder in his third full major league season whose top PECOTA comp is Carlos Guillen. There's some question as to how the Yankees will utilize Betemit, but there's no doubt that they got the superior player in the deal.\nSecond is just how talented Betemit is. A switch-hitter who can play second, third, and short and even made an emergency appearance in right field for the Dodgers earlier this year, Betemit has a good bit of pop and improving plate discipline and probably deserves a starting job somewhere in the major leagues.\nI'll take a closer look at Betemit in just a second, but before I do, the third thing that impresses me about this deal is that Brian Cashman essentially turned Robin Ventura (whom he dealt to the Dodgers for Proctor and Bubba Crosby at the 2003 deadline) into Betemit, getting Proctor's solid 2006 season out of the pen along the way. The Ventura deal infuriated me at the time. I was sure that Ventura would have been a valuable bat off the bench in the Yankees' postseason run, and I'm still convinced that he could have made the difference in the 2003 World Series, but it's hard to argue against it now. Ventura, then 35, played 151 games for the Dodgers over a season and a half, totaling 1.5 wins over replacement (per Baseball Prospectus's WARP) for L.A. before retiring. In parts of three seasons, Crosby accumulated 0.7 WARP and was sent on his way before he could do much harm (Adam Kennedy's \"triple\" in the 2005 ALDS was as much if not more Gary Sheffield's fault than Crosby's). Proctor, meanwhile, compiled 6.1 WARP for the Yankees over four seasons (4 of those wins coming last year) to give the Yankees a 5.3 win advantage in the Ventura trade alone. That the Yankees now have Betemit to show for all of that is just fantastic work on Cashman's part.\nWilson Betemit was signed as a right-hand-hitting shortstop out of the Dominican Republic by the Atlanta Braves in 1996. The deal was illegal as Betemit was just 14 at the time, but the Braves paid the penalty to keep Betemit, who learned to switch-hit and by the age of 19 was hitting .355/.394/.514 in double-A, which earned him a brief cup of coffee in the major leagues and a whole lotta hype. Betamit stalled out there, however, struggling with his weight, shifting to third base, and spending the next three years at triple-A, struggling in the first and showing only mild improvements in the next two before getting his second taste of the majors with brief call-ups in May and September of 2004 at the age of 22. Out of options in 2005, Betemit finally spent a full season in the bigs and even got to start at third base during Chipper Jones' annual stint on the disabled list. He hit a solid .305/.359/.435 that season and .281/.344/.497 the next year with Atlanta before being flipped to the Dodgers at the 2006 trading deadline for Danys Baez and Willy Aybar. Installed as the Dodgers' starting third baseman, Betemit kept up that pace with a little less patience but a bit more power through early September, but then slumped badly hitting .175/.264/.238 from September 5 through the end of the 2006 season. Betemit was even worse in April of this year, hitting .120/.299/.160 through May 1, but since then he's been raking to a .283/.392/.623 tune.\nOverall, even with those two awful months mixed in, Betemit has seen his isolated power (ISP = SLG - AVG)) and plate discipline (ISD = OBP - AVG) numbers increase in each of the last two seasons from .130 ISP and .054 ISD in 2005, to .206 ISP and .083 ISD in 2006, to .243 ISP and .128 ISD thus far this year, both of which are just outstanding numbers.\nHere's Dodger Thoughts' Jon Weisman on Betemit's Dodger career:\nWhile no All-Star, Betemit, particularly against right-handed pitchers, was quite simply one of the Dodgers' best hitters. He was often mocked for his propensity to strike out [151 Ks in 604 PA in 2006 and 2007 combined], but those strikeouts distracted the critics from realizing his value.\nHowever many times he made an out, it was more rare than any Dodger infielder except Jeff Kent and James Loney. His slugging percentage was also higher than any Dodger infielder except those two. Much has been made of Nomar Garciaparra's July hot streak, yet few noticed that Betemit was even hotter, with a .500 on-base percentage and .667 slugging percentage [actually .677].\nBetemit lost fans because simply because of the type of outs he made, not because of the quantity. He was a book judged by its cover. And that always makes me sad.\nAs to why the Dodgers were willing to deal such a player, Weisman again:\n\"That fact remains that the Dodgers will stick with Garciaparra and Kent at third base and second base for the remainder of the season as long as they stay healthy, so that there was no starting role for Betemit. And with Andy LaRoche, Tony Abreu and Chin-Lung Hu in the minor leagues, the Dodgers are also covered for the future. At least one of these players has a higher ceiling than Betemit.\"\nStill, Weisman agrees that Betemit is, \"a more valuable player than Proctor,\" and that \"trading for a middle reliever is almost by definition against good judgment, unless you're giving up a fringe minor-leaguer in the process.\" Adding only that, \"the Dodgers were probably never going to warm up to Betemit--even though he hit 19 home runs in 330 at-bats as a Dodger.\"\nSo Betemit is a young, multi-talented hitter and infielder who's good enough to start, but what is he going to do on the Yankees?\nThat's a good question. For now I imagine he'll replace Chris Basak on the roster while Saturday's starter (who one assumes will be Phil Hughes) will eventually take Proctor's vacated position on the pitching staff, which had only been carrying four starters since Basak replaced Kei Igawa on Friday. ESPN's Buster Olney reported that the Yankees liked Betemit because \"he could play first base for them this year,\" but failed to mention that Betemit's never played first base in the major leagues before while Andy Phillips has hit .304/.350/.420 since being recalled, .317/.360/.442 since taking over the starting job at first base, and is in the midst of an 11-game hitting streak. Besides which, Betemit and Phillips would not make a good platoon as both are better against righty pitching (Phillips repeating last year's odd reverse split, and the switch-hitting Betemit doing the bulk of his damage hitting lefty).\nIt's widely believed that Betemit was primarily obtained to be Alex Rodriguez insurance, as Betemit could become the Yankees' starting third baseman in 2008 should Rodriguez opt out of his contract and sign elsewhere. That's not a bad get for a redundant right-handed middle reliever who had a 1.51 WHIP on the season, has allowed four homers in his last six innings pitched, and against whom opposing hitters are hitting .298/.391/.482 since June 1. If nothing else, it gives the Yankees the best utility infielder they've had under Joe Torre by incredible leaps and bounds, even though it seems likely that Miguel Cairo will stick around to be a redundant drain on the roster (a.k.a. pinch-runner).\nShould Rodriguez sign an extension to stay in New York, Betemit could be flipped over the winter for something a lot better than Scott Proctor or retained as the lone utility infielder leaving Cairo to find work elsewhere. Whatever becomes of him, Betemit is a great addition and a significant upgrade for the Yankees whether you're comparing him to the player he was traded for (Proctor), the player he replaces on the roster (Basak), or the player whose playing time he'll likely most effect (Cairo).\nAs for the bullpen, with 15 minutes to go until the deadline, the latest news is that Eric Gagne may be headed to Boston, while Joba Chamberlain and Edwar Ramirez could wind up getting the call to solidify the Yankee pen with Chris Britton still on the DL for Scranton, Brian Bruney likely getting demoted, and the fate of Kyle Farnsworth still to be determined.\nUpdate: Sox got Gagne (for mL CF David Murphy and LHP Kason Gabbard), which gives them an insane endgame provided Gagne stays healthy.\nYankee Panky #18: A bunch of bull(pen)\nIf you believe what you\u2019re reading, seeing on TV and hearing on radio, every team in contention is looking for middle relief help. And as far as the Yankees and their bullpen are concerned, the past couple of days have featured plenty of jibber jabber. Peter Abraham gave a clue into this on Sunday in a notes column that featured some surprising honesty from Joe Torre, a misleading headline, and a hitch in the second paragraph that spell check won\u2019t catch but a decent copyeditor should.\nWhile Pete Abes asserts that Scott Proctor\u2019s removal from a primary set-up role is intended to restore confidence in the righty, Jayson Stark and George King write that Proctor is the most likely candidate to be dealt. This is due in part to the Cashman Manifesto of building from within. Joba Chamberlain\u2019s move to the bullpen at Scranton, for all intents and purposes, is meant to accelerate his promotion to the Major Leagues. Yet Abraham wrote that the team had not formulated a plan to use Chamberlain as a reliever.\nWhich story is true? I wrote last week that it\u2019s difficult to separate truth from rumor near the trade deadline. I would guess that Stark and King, two veteran writers that manned the Phillies beat for a long time, have it right. That\u2019s not meant to discredit Abraham\u2019s reporting. New information could have been presented between the time he filed his story and Stark and King filed theirs.\nA QUEBECOIS IN PINSTRIPES?\nThe Yankees are reportedly among four suitors for Eric Gagne, who has eclipsed 30 appearances for the first time since 2004 and made it known that if he's traded, he wants to go where he can be a closer and not a set-up man. Kat O\u2019Brien reports that Gagne has a no-trade clause, but he cannot block a trade to the Mets or Yankees, two teams where he would be a set-up man. The Red Sox, who also have a solid closer, are also reportedly interested in the Nordique.\nBut after what\u2019s happened to the most recent bespectacled, brittle reliever to wear a Yankee uniform (see below), is Gagne worth the risk, especially at that price?\nFARNS WORTH LESS AND LESS\nFrom the looks of things, Kyle Farnsworth is approaching persona non grata status. Monday\u2019s stories, specifically in the Post and Newsday regarding Farnsworth\u2019s fall from favor and incompatibility with Jorge Posada stole some layout space from a big day by Johnny Damon (it sounds more entertaining when you picture the Matt Damon marionette from \"Team America: World Police\" saying Johnny Damon's name).\nIt\u2019s no secret the Yankees were, and probably still are, shopping Farnsworth. Torre is in a big-time Catch-22 here; there is no usage pattern he can devise for Farnsworth that will convince anyone that the reliever is a part of the Yankees\u2019 plans for the stretch run and beyond. If Farnsworth pitches, say, four or five times per week over the next couple of weeks as opposed to the recent number of twice in a nine-day span, the assumption will be made that the Yankees are showcasing him. If another prolonged span of Kyle the Sedentary occurs, it\u2019s reasonable to believe he might already be placed on waivers and the Yankees are just waiting for someone to claim him.\nI\u2019ll be honest: I don\u2019t care if Farnsworth is traded. It could very well be addition by subtraction. If you put Farnsworth's numbers next to those of Scott Proctor, Brian Bruney, and until six weeks ago, Luis Vizcaino, the hard-throwing four-piece bridge to Rivera is basically the same pitcher in four different sizes, shapes and colors.\nIf Farnsworth is traded, I believe it\u2019s because of the feud with Jorge Posada. Farnsworth is not the first Yankee pitcher to complain about Posada. The catcher can be prickly \u2014 I've witnessed it on numerous occasions. I was surprised to not see any mention of pitchers who previously had problems with Posada. There would be no need to go into extreme detail about the Randy Johnson saga which culminated in the signing of Kelly Stinnett (a move Joe Torre rationalized by saying he \u201chad a little more stick\u201d than John Flaherty), the punches Posada and El Duque exchanged several years ago, or even Mike Mussina\u2019s comfort factor with Wil Nieves this season compared to Posada. David Cone preferred Joe Girardi to Posada, even after Posada won the everyday job in \u201998. A brief sentence or two listing prominent Yankee pitchers that did not see eye to eye with Posada would have added another dimension to the story. Tyler Kepner added a historical component to his main story Monday, but not on the Farnsworth-Posada feud. Kepner likened Joba Chamberlain\u2019s possible promotion to young relievers on recent World Series winners who were called up in July or August and had an impact on the pennant race.\nMaybe it\u2019s just me. I\u2019m a history buff. As an editor, I always thought past events added value to a story when used properly. As a fan, I want to read a story or listen/watch a broadcast and connect it to a past event or events. If I can piece it together, the writers or broadcasters should be able to, from being around the team every day. The incidents I mentioned above could have been included in the writers' original drafts. (Maybe they were and were cut for word count restrictions.)\nDo you agree? Do you think the past Posada feuds are relevant to the current one with Farnsworth?\n\u201cImpact\u201d will be a buzzword today. It always is on Deadline Day. Like all of you, I\u2019ll be scanning the wires for the latest. I\u2019ll check back Wednesday with a best and worst of trade deadline coverage.\nTuesday Tidbits: Act Like You Wanna\nNothing doing so far with the Yanks in the trade market. The deadline is today at 4 p.m, east coast time. The morning rumors have Eric Gagne as a longshot to come to the Bronx and the Proctor-for-Betemit a possibility once again--here is coverage in the Post, News, the Times, and Newsday. According to Buster Olney over at ESPN, the Yankees:\n...Seem destined to make a move today. If they cannot trade Kyle Farnsworth for what they consider to be equal value, then they'll probably trade Scott Proctor to the Dodgers for Wilson Betemit. If they can find a deal for Farnsworth, then they'll keep Proctor. Either way, Joba Chamberlain is crucial to their thinking -- they hope the touted prospect can fill a role in middle relief.\nThey are sitting in the pole position, so to speak, on Gagne -- they have prospects to offer, and he cannot stop them from acquiring him. But the Yankees have stood their ground against the Rangers' trade demands, so far (which includes the team's top prospects).\nThe Red Sox are still looking to add Jermaine Dye. They are also in on Gagne, reports the Boston Herald.\nSeries Wrap: @ Baltimore\nOffense: The inverse of the Royals series, the Yankee offense was comatose for the first 18 1/3 innings (including the completion of the suspended game), scoring just 3 runs over that span. Over the final ten innings they scored 15 runs. Overall a poor performance, but at least it ended well.\nMelky Cabrera 6 for 11, 2 2B, 3B, 3 RBI, 2 R, BB, HBP, SB\nRobinson Cano 5 for 13, 3 2B, 2 RBI, R\nAlex Rodriguez 0 for 9, 4 K, 5 BB\nMiguel Cairo and Jose Molina combined 0 for 3\nNeither Shelley Duncan nor Chris Basak got into a game on either offense or defense.\nRotation: Quality starts by Andy Pettitte and Chien-Ming Wang with Roger Clemens missing by one run (6 1/3 IP, 4 R). Clemens and Wang were both a bit off, however, as they combined to allow 24 base runners in 12 1/3 innings. Pettitte's was easily the best start of the weekend (7 IP, 8 H, 3 R, 3 BB, 5 K).\nBullpen: This was by far the pen's worst performance of the second half thus far as it allowed 8 runs in 7 2/3 innings.\nRon Villone faced three batters over the course of two appearances and retired all three, striking out one. He did allow one inherited runner to score, but that was because he was brought into a bases-loaded, one-out situation created by Brian Bruney and the first batter he faced grounded out, plating a run in the process.\nBrian Bruney gave up the two crucial eighth-inning runs by which the Yankee rally fell short on Saturday night. He faced five batters, allowed three singles, one reached on an error by Alex Rodriguez, and the only one he retired plated a run with a sac fly. Kyle Farnsworth walked the first man he faced, then allowed a two-run Brian Roberts home run and threw in a single for good measure in his only inning of the weekend. Scott Proctor gave up a Kevin Millar solo home run and a single in his only appearance of the weekend and needed Ron Villone to get the last out of his inning for him. Mike Myers faced four batters across two games. Two of them reached base, one of them scored on Luis Vizcaino's watch. For his part, Vizcaino allowed four runners and one run (not counting the inherited run of Myers') in an inning and a third. Mariano Rivera got one save and closed out the only win of the weekend, but allowed five hits and a run in 2 2/3 innings (though he did also strike out four). I honestly forgot Sean Henn was on the roster. He did not pitch.\nDefense: The only error of the weekend was Alex Rodriguez's boot amid Brian Bruney's awful third of an inning (though Robinson Cano flubbed a ball that hit off Vizcaino's shoulder in the finale, but that was ruled a hit). Otherwise, the Yanks played some very strong defense, with Melky Cabrera's arm and Johnny Damon's catch in the finale standing out. Jose Molina threw out the only base runner who attempted to steal against him making him a perfect 2 for 2 as a Yankee.\nConclusion: A scuffling offense and a flammable bullpen make for a rough weekend, especially when the starters are only so-so. Fortunately the offense perked up at the end. But what about the pen? Word has it Joba Chamberlain has been moved to the bullpen down in triple-A. Meanwhile, the trading deadline is tomorrow. Stay tuned . . .\nThe Yankees scored four runs early yesterday afternoon to overcome another less-than-crisp start from Chien-Ming Wang (6 IP, 9 H, 4 BB, 3 ER). They then scored six runs late to overcome more shoddy relief work from the bullpen (3 IP, 6 H, 3 R). Put it all together and the Yanks beat the Orioles 10-6 to salvage the final game of the weekend series and the glimmer of hope for their season.\nThe Yanks got all four of those early runs off Daniel Cabrera in the first two innings. They did this despite getting only one run out of a bases-loaded no-outs situation in the first and Derek Jeter being called out at the plate on an inning ending 3-4-2 double play off the bat of Alex Rodriguez in the second despite the fact that it appeared that catcher Paul Bako missed the tag.\nRodriguez, incidentally, is still hitless since he launched career homer number 499 in Kansas City. After last night's game, Rodriguez said he was being pitched very carefully and that instead of pressing to make things happen he had to learn to take his base and keep the line moving. Yesterday, after striking out and grounding into the afore mentioned double play in his first two at-bats (both with the bases loaded), he took his own advice and took three walks (one intentional) in his three remaining trips. That's further evidence of the increased maturity that Rodriguez has shown this season. In the 2005 Division Series against the Angels, Rodriguez was in a similar situation. The Angels gave him nothing to hit in that series, but he tried to force it and wound up going 2 for 15 with five Ks and just six walks in 21 plate appearances.\nCabrera largely settled down after the bad call on Jeter, while Wang coughed up those two runs in the bottom of the fourth, stranding two other runners on base thanks to a fantastic inning-ending catch by Johnny Damon heading back toward the wall in the gap in left field to snag a drive by Brian Roberts. Roberts got his revenge on Wang by driving in a run in the sixth to pull the O's within 4-3. The Yanks got that one back in the seventh off John Parrish, but the O's returned the volley in the bottom of the inning by plating Nick Markakis's leadoff double off Luis Vizcaino.\nThat made it 5-4 Yanks with Vizcaino burned and Kyle Farnsworth warming in the pen. Watching the game, I was convinced Farnsworth would blow that one-run lead in the eighth. Fortunately, the Yanks exploded for five runs against Paul Shuey and Dany Baez in the top of the inning, which cushioned the blow of the two-run Brian Roberts home run Farnsworth eventually surrendered in the bottom half. Mariano Rivera struck out the side around a pair of singles and a wild pitch in the ninth to wrap things up.\nThe Yankees are now back home for a much needed rest today followed by six games against the White Sox and Royals. They really need to go 5-1 in that stretch. It's a lot to ask, but times are tough in Yankeeland.\nDoes that headline apply to last night's 7-5 Yankee loss to the Orioles in which the Yankees rallied for four runs in the ninth only to have Bobby Abreu strikeout to end the game while representing the tying run, or to the Yankees' season itself? You tell me.\nThe Yankees got exactly one man on base against Brian Burres in each of the first six innings last night. Twice that runner was erased by a double play. Twice he stole second base. Once he was thrown out stealing. In none of those six innings was he advanced by another batter, and none of those six runners came around to score. The Yanks finally broke through when Hideki Matsui led off the seventh with a solo home run. Jorge Posada followed that homer with a single, driving Burres from the game, but despite a subsequent walk, the Yankees were unable to do further damage against reliever John Parrish.\nFor his part, Roger Clemens had a rough first inning, allowing two runs on a walk and a pair of doubles and throwing 31 pitches. He pitched out of another jam in the second, but another 19 pitches put him at 50 after just two frames. Clemens set the O's down 1-2-3 in the third, but it was the only time he was able to do so all night. The O's scratched out a third run in the fifth on a lead-off walk to Brian Roberts, a sac bunt, a steal of third, and an RBI single.\nDespite having thrown 110 pitches, Clemens came out for the seventh, but when Roberts delivered a one-out single on Rocket's 113th pitch, Joe Torre brought in Mike Myers to face Corey Patterson. Patterson singled to put runners on the corners, then stole second uncontested when the Yankee infield came in to cut off the run. Myers got Nick Markakis swinging for the second out and Torre called on set-up ace Luis Vizcaino, but Vizcaino walked Kevin Millar on five pitches to load the bases then gave up a bloop single to right by Miguel Tejada to plate two more runs, running the score to 5-1 O's.\nIn the eighth, Danys Baez got Derek Jeter, Bobby Abreu, and Alex Rodriguez on eight pitches and the O's tacked two more on against Brian Bruney and Ron Villone to make it 7-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth.\nWith a six-run lead, Dave Trembley turned to the bottom man in his pen, Cory Doyne. Doyne got ahead of Hideki Matsui 0-2, fell back to 2-2, then got Matsui to ground to second. Only the ball was a slow, bounding, three hopper close to the bag and Matsui was able to beat Brian Roberts' throw at first base by a half step. Then this happened:\nPosada home run\nCano double\nPhillips single\nCabrera single, Cano scores\nWith the score 7-4 Yankees, Trembley pulled Doyne and brought in lefty Jamie Walker to face Johnny Damon. With two men on base, I wondered about the wisdom of going for broke by pinch-hitting Shelley Duncan for Damon against the lefty Walker. The thought being that the righty slugger Ducan could run into a pitch and tie the game, while Damon, being a lefty, was more likely to roll over on one and hit into a rally-killing double play. The other side of that being that Damon had hit .355/.412/.516 over the previous seven games and, with no outs, Damon's on-base abilities were more likely to keep the line moving and bring the team's big hitters to the plate. Torre, smartly, elected to stay with Damon. What I didn't know at the time, but Torre did, was that Damon had hit into only one double play all season prior to that at-bat, but that DP had come in the third inning of this very game. Damon rewarded Torre's informed decision by grounding into his second double play of the 2007 season. Undeterred, Derek Jeter singled to plate Phillips, bringing Bobby Abreu to the plate as the tying run.\nWith Alex Rodriguez, still looking for his 500th career home run, lurking on-deck, Abreu took a slider on the outside corner for strike one as Jeter took second base on defensive indifference. Abreu then took another slider well outside for ball one, and a fastball that looked a bit outside for strike two. With catcher Ramon Hernandez bouncing around to prevent Jeter from relaying location from second base, Walker threw a slider in the dirt to make it 2-2. Abreu then fouled off a slider and a fastball (both of which were in the strike zone), and took another slider low and away to run the count full. Seven pitches into the at-bat, Walker had thrown five sliders and two fastballs, all had been belt-high or lower, all had been away, and all but the last fastball had been on the outside corner or outside the strike zone. Walker's last pitch started out headed for Abreu's ribs. Bobby had seen it often enough to recognize it: the slider again. This one was higher and a bit further over the plate than the others. Abreu paused to avoid swinging early at the 73-mile-per-hour pitch, then let loose.\nWatching the replay, I still can't figure out how he missed it. The pitch was high in the zone. Al Leiter, broadcasting for YES, said it was too high for Abreu to reach, but it was letter-high at most and the replays show that he swung on the right plane. If anything it looks like he swung too early despite the extra pause. In either case, the pitch was likely ball four. Having come up empty, Abreu stared back at the ball in Hernandez's glove in shock, then let out a yell of frustration and realization before staggering back to the dugout in a daze behind Rodriguez, who was left on deck.\nWill a similar scene be played out on a larger scale in September? With the Yankees having now dropped the weekend series to the Orioles, breaking serve for the first time in the second half (if you'll allow the cross-sports metaphor), let's do some calculations.\nThe Yankees are now 55-49. They are nine games behind Boston (who won last night) in the AL East, and five games behind Cleveland (who lost) in third place in the Wild Card race (thanks to Friday's completion of the suspended game, their games behind in the standings and games behind in the loss column are now in synch). Thus far in the second half, the Yankees have gone 13-6 (.684) (including that suspended game, which was not added to their record until it was completed on Friday) against their cupcake opponents. If the Yankees can arrest their current three-game losing streak to continue to play .684 ball against the cupcakes (O's, Chisox, D-Rays, KC, Jays), and go 12-11 against their tougher opponents (Tribe, Tigers, Halos, Bosox, M's) per my previous calculations, they'll finish the season with 91 wins. At their current winning percentage, Cleveland would finish the season with at least 93 wins. There's still hope for the Wild Card, but there's no room for error. The Yankees have to compensate for their current slump with a sweep against someone else, and they have to do better than 12-11 against the big boys (preferably beginning by winning their three-game series in Cleveland) if they want to make the postseason. The Red Sox, who are on pace for at least 99 wins, are likely out of reach. The Mariners (on pace for a max of 89 wins and having lost 7 of their last 9) are of little concern.\nChien-Ming Wang needs to be the stopper this afternoon, and the offense needs to build on its ninth-inning rally. If this team gets any deeper into its sudden funk, it's over, both the season and the franchise's 12-year streak of reaching the postseason.\nThe Yankees enter tonight's game in the same situation they were in a week ago. Having lost two straight, they have to sweep the weekend to stay on target. Last weekend they did just that by blowing the Devil Rays out of the water by winning three games by a combined score of 45-12. This weekend, the pitching matchups favor the Yankees, but the offense will have to snap out of their sudden funk to cash in on that advantage.\nRobinson Cano broke the team's 0-for-27 slump with runners in scoring position with an RBI single in the sixth inning last night. Here's hoping they can build on that tonight against Brian Burres who has a 7.18 ERA over his last five starts. Roger Clemens, meanwhile, has allowed three runs in his last 13 innings over two starts.\nThe Yankee Rumor Mill\nIn less than 100 hours now, we\u2019ll know whether the Yankees have made any substantial moves to beat the trading deadline. As well as the Bombers have played since the All-Star break, general manager Brian Cashman cannot afford to stand pat. The acquisition of backup catcher Jose Molina is a small step in the right direction, if only because it forced the incompetent Wil Nieves off the roster. Still, the bench and bullpen remain primary areas of concern, as does the back end of the starting rotation. At the same time, Cashman shouldn\u2019t trade his two prized pitching prospects, Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain, not unless the Cardinals are suddenly offering Albert Pujols. (After all, he wasn\u2019t good enough to play unless the All-Star Game went extra innings.) With all of that in mind, let\u2019s consider some of the many rumored possibilities\u2026\nThere\u2019s been a lot of talk this week about a Mark Teixeira deal, but I don\u2019t see him coming to the Yankees when all is said and done. I\u2019d bet on the Braves instead, followed by the Orioles as a longshot. Embattled Rangers GM Jon Daniels needs a big return for Teixeira, especially considering how many of his recent deals have flatlined for Texas. Daniels will almost certainly insist on either Chamberlain or Hughes, both of whom are close to untouchable in Cashman\u2019s mind. (Furthermore, both figure in the Yankees\u2019 immediate future, Hughes as the No. 4 starter and Chamberlain as a possible set-up man for Mariano Rivera.) If Daniels is willing to consider a lesser package featuring Melky Cabrera, Tyler Clippard, and/or Ian Kennedy, the Yankees might bite. But then again, can the Yankees really afford to trade Cabrera given Johnny Damon\u2019s fragile body and diminishing outfield range? And will Teixeira, who has only 13 home runs this season, ever show the kind of power that he showed in 2005, when he peaked with 43 home runs? Given these questions and obstacles, I just don\u2019t see the Rangers and Yankees getting together on a major deal involving Big Tex\u2026\nThe Yankees would be smarter to pursue a deal with the Devil Rays, who have two useful players that interest the Yankees. For the price it would cost to acquire Teixeira, the Yankees could probably land both Carlos Pena and Ty Wigginton. How about a package of Clippard, Scott Proctor, Ross Ohlendorf, and Chris Britton (currently on the minor league DL) for the pair of 29-year-old power hitters? The lefty-swinging Pena could then platoon with Andy Phillips at first base (and isn\u2019t that a lot more appealing than waiting for Doug Mientkiewicz to return in September?), while Wigginton could serve as a platoon partner for Robinson Cano at second base and as a valuable bat off the bench. Wigginton\u2019s ability to play second, first, third and the outfield make him especially attractive\u2014and might be enough to bump Miguel Cairo from the 25-man roster\u2026\nSpeaking of second baseman, the Yankees are once again showing interest in Houston\u2019s Mark Loretta, just as they did during the off-season when he was a free agent. Like Wigginton, Loretta could platoon with Cano and could provide another option at first base. Unfortunately, Astros GM Tim Purpura is notoriously conservative and needs a federal proclamation to make any trades of substance\u2026\nWhat about the bullpen? Scott Linebrink has already been traded, leaving the Rangers\u2019 Eric Gagne and the Royals\u2019 Octavio Dotel as the biggest names available in a thin market of relief pitching. The Yankees have some interest in both pitchers, (more in Gagne than in Dotel, whom the Yankees already had in 2006), but probably not enough to outbid teams like the Indians, Tigers, Dodgers, and Mets. As for lesser names, David Weathers and Salomon Torres are both available, but neither seems like an ideal guy for the eighth inning. Rather than a trade, the Yankees are far more likely to pursue solutions from within their system, such as Joba Chamberlain or Chris Britton\u2026 Then there\u2019s always the theory of addition by subtraction, which explains the rumors that have the enigmatic Kyle Farnsworth headed back to the Tigers for a C-level prospect\u2026\nThe Yankees and White Sox have engaged in recent discussions, enough to merit the White Sox sending scouts to follow the New Yorkers on their current road trip. While Jose Contreras and Javier Vazquez are both available, the Yankees have little interest in re-visiting either of those options. Vazquez\u2019 mechanics are too problematic and Contreras has lost too much off his fastball, so forget about either of those right-handers. Jon Garland, however, is another story. The Yankees so covet the 27-year-old ground ball specialist as a mid-season replacement for long-in-the-tooth Mike Mussina that they are considering the surrender of some of Cashman\u2019s stockpile of pitching prospects. The White Sox would also have interest in center field prospect Brett Gardner, given the disaster area that position has been for Chicago since the departure of Aaron Rowand. With the potential additions of both Garland and Hughes, the Yankees could then jettison both Mussina and Igawa to the bullpen, where they would presumably replace some combination of Proctor, Farnsworth, Mike Myers, and/or Ron Villone\u2026\nOne final note: some recent trade talk has centered on Johnny Damon, who is apparently being shopped around both leagues. I\u2019m sure that the Yankees would love to trade Damon, but his contract is so prohibitive that it makes the chances of a fair exchange nearly impossible. If the Yankees are smart, they\u2019ll work with Damon on a new conditioning program, switch him to left field fulltime in 2008, and hope that he can regain some of the power he showed in 2006.\nAndy Pettitte pitched another credible game in defeat as a three-run inning was too much for the Yankees to overcome as they fell 4-2 to the Orioles.\n\"I'm just kind of fighting myself,\" said Pettitte, who allowed eight hits and three walks, while striking out five. \"I'm constantly having to make adjustments out there instead of it just being together for seven straight innings. I got in a little bit of a rhythm the last few innings, and that's what's frustrating \u0097 that I can struggle for a few innings and then it's fine, but yet the damage is done.\"\nKepner, N.Y. Times)\nScott Proctor may be sniffing around for the lighter fluid. He gave up a solo homer last night, the fourth dinger he's surrendered in his last five games. As Pete Abraham mentions, \"He looks like a guy who is worried about being traded, which perhaps he should be.\"\nBut the story of the night was Baltimore's rookie starter Jeremy Guthrie and the O's pen. The Yankee offense was kept in check. Guthrie threw six strong innings, featuring a 95+sinker and a good breaking ball. Man, does he look like a keeper or what? In fact, there are a lot of things to be pleased about in Baltimore these days, according to the Washington Post.\nThe bad news for the Yanks? Boston, Cleveland and Seattle all won. Welp, today is another day. Let's hope the Yanks come slugging tonight.\nYanks Jump Start Their Weekend\nThe Yankees and Orioles kicked off their weekend series this evening with some unfinished business. On June 28th, the Yankees lead the O's 8-6 with two men out in the eighth inning when the game was suspended due to rain. RBI singles by Melky Cabrera and Derek Jeter helped the Yankees rally from two down. It was raining like crazy as the Yanks came back and Baltimore third baseman Melvin Mora got himself thrown out of the game arguing with the umpires after the Yanks took the lead. The game should have been called sooner and you couldn't blame Mora for being upset.\nIt was raining this afternoon in Baltimore but cleared up and the game resumed a few minutes after seven. All the statistics will count as June stats. Here's the play-by-play:\nThe Yankees 8th Rob Bell on the mound for Baltimore. He falls behind Hideki Matsui 3-0. This time Godzilla doesn't swing at the 3-0 pitch, fastball strike. Then he grounds a sharp one-hopper to Kevin Millar at first and the side is retired.\nBottom of the 8th Mike Myers, who had entered the game in the seventh inning starts the eighth inning against Nick Markakis. The first pitch is a breaking ball low for a ball. Another breaking ball, this one is high and away, ball two. Fastball on the inside corner, called strike one. Fastball, outside, Markakis swings late and fouls a ball to the left side. Breaking ball, Markakis waits, is late again but fouls it back. Another breaking ball, low and away, Markakis grounds a soft ground ball to Jeter. One out.\nSlider inside, ball one to Chris Gomez. Fastball, high and away, ball two. Fastball, low and away, 3-0. Again low and away, four pitch walk. Aubrey Huff comes to hit and Torre calls for Mariano.\nMariano vs. Huff. Cutter, up and in, ball one. It didn't cut so much as it swept. Another cutter. Huff swings late and grounds a chopper to Cano, who flips to Jeter, who throws on to first for an easy 4-6-3 double play. Nice and easy. Now that's what I'm talkin' about, Mo.\nTop of the 9th\nAlex. Fastball low, ball one. Fastball, down the pipe, ground ball to short. That was a pitch to hit. You know he's thinking about the home run. Well, so much for the Back-to-the-Future home run angle.\nThe first pitch to Jorge Posada is a fastball strike right over the plate. Slider, outside, 1-1. Another breaking ball, high and away, 2-1. Fastball grounded right at Brian Roberts at second. Easy out.\nBobby Abreu takes a questionable strike, low and away. Fastball, tailing away. Same pitch, same call. Same pitch again, low, 1-2. Another sinker, easy ground ball to second, side retired.\nMiguel Tejada, who did not appear in the original June 28th game, leads off. Tonight gives his return from the DL. Mo's first pitch is a cutter on the outside corner. Tejada swings and misses, strike one. Cutter in the dirt, 1-1. Fastball, low, Tejada takes an enormous cut and misses the ball. Upstairs, the ball cuts, and Tejada swings wildly through the ball. One out.\nCorey Patterson fouls the first pitch--a cutter--off of his foot. Another cutter, this one doesn't get in enough and Patterson lines the ball to right center. Abreu gets a bad jump, the ball gets in the gap and Patterson glides into second base with a double.\nRamon Hernandez is the pinch-hitter. Cutter, low and away, 1-0. Another cutter, low and away. Mo missed his target, 2-0. Posada was set-up inside. High and inside, ball three. Mo hasn't been close in this at-bat. Pitches are really moving. Fastball strike, 3-1. Cutter, up and over the plate, lined up the middle. RBI single. Oy. Now, it's 8-7 Yanks.\nJay Payton nubs the first pitch to Jeter who steps on the bag and quickly throws to first. But the throw is wide and Andy Phillips stretches to his right to catch it. His foot comes off the bag and Payton is safe. Jeter rushed his throw.\nBrain Roberts takes a cutter for a strike. He was taking all the way. Posada is set-up inside. Mo taking a long time. I'm surprised Roberts hasn't stepped out. Cutter, inside, 1-1. Another cutter, flat, high and outside. Posada was set-up inside. Mo missed badly again. Cutter \"drilled deep to right field,\" says Michael Kay. But he's just too quick and the ball is foul, 2-2. The crowd jumped at that one. Now they are cheering. Fastball away, Roberts lines the ball down the third base line. Payton reaches third, Roberts holds first. Nice hitting by Roberts. The ball was up at little but it was outside; Roberts just stayed back and went with it.\nHomina, homina, homina. Brandon Fahey takes a ball, 1-0. The crowd is rowdy. Another cutter low, Fahey fouls it off, 1-1. He did Mo a favor swinging at that pitch. Another cutter--slow chopper hit up the middle. Cano ranges to his right, leans over and backhands the ball. Without breaking stride he steps on second base, beating Roberts for the final out of the game.\nAnd that's that. Whew. Jeez, that was a bunch of excitement early in the evening. Mo gives up a run but the Yanks win. They now trail the Red Sox by seven games. The regularly scheduled game will begin in about twenty minutes. Y'all come back now, ya hear? In the meanwhile, check out this article I wrote about shortstops for SI.com.\nSam Perlozzo was fired after the penultimate game of a nine-game losing streak in late June. Dave Trembley's first game as Orioles manager was the team's ninth-consecutive loss, but since then they've gone 18-12 (.600). Along the way, their runs scored have surpassed their runs allowed, putting them in the Pythagorean black with a 51-49 make believe record. More recently, the O's have won 9 of 12 and enter this weekend's 3 1/2 game series on a four-game winning streak, the first three games of which saw them allow a total of just one run to the A's and Devil Rays.\nIndeed, pitching has been the reason for the O's recent success. The offense is still awful, though it should get a boost with the return of Miguel Tejada from the DL for tonight's action. Nick Markakis has been raking (.359/.435/.500 in July), but only has one homer on the month. Corey Patterson has hit his way into the two-spot in the order with a .337/.353/.530 line and team-leading four homers and eight steals in nine attempts in July, but other than a singles-driven surge from Chris Gomez, no one else could be described as \"hot,\" and only Kevin Millar, who has moved up to the cleanup spot in Tejada's absence, and Brian Roberts have been acceptably productive. Rather it's been the work of staff ace Erik Bedard (7-2, 2.09 ERA since the end of April and 6-0 with a 1.89 since the departure of Perlozzo) and the $40-million bullpen that has put the O's on the winning track.\nThe Yankees are fortunate enough to miss Bedard this weekend, but tonight's starter, 28-year-old fourth-year rookie Jeremy Guthrie, has pitched in as well. Guthrie held the Yankees to two runs over 6 1/3 innings and struck out six when these teams last met. In his last two starts he's allowed just two runs in 13 innings. He did have something of a hiccup in between (a 6.11 over three starts, all Oriole losses), but that was his only rough patch since joining the rotation in early May. Guthrie has 13 quality starts in 15 tries this season and in one of the two \"non-quality\" starts he struck out seven and walked none while allowing just four hits in eight innings. In fact, that game was what is known as a \"blown quality start\" as Guthrie had held the Angels to three runs over seven innings, but having thrown just 88 pitches, was left in the game by Trembley only to surender a solo homer in the eighth to \"blow\" the quality start.\nThe good news is that the Yankees have a potential momentum buster with the completion of the teams' suspended game from June 28 preceding tonight's scheduled game. The game was stopped with the Yankees leading 8-6 with two outs in the eighth, Derek Jeter on second, and Hideki Matsui coming to the plate. That gives Matsui an immediate chance to break his RISP 0-fer. It also means the Yankees only need six outs to secure the win (though both Luis Vizcaino and Chien-Ming Wang, the latter of whom is on his throw day today, have already been used in the game; Mike Myers is the active pitcher). Of course, that win wouldn't break the Orioles' winning streak (though it could mess with Alex Rodriguez's 500th homer), and an Oriole comeback could be devastating to the Yanks, who I'm sure have had this one penciled in as a win for the last month.\nAndy Pettitte, who seems to have righted his ship in the second half (2-0, 3.38 ERA, 19 K in 18 2/3 IP) will start the scheduled game for the Yanks. Meanwhile, Chris Basak has been recalled, replacing Kei Igawa who has been optioned back to Scranton (which suggests that the fifth starter will be skipped following Monday's off day and that Phil Hughes will take the turn when it next comes due). Meanwhile, could it be that Miguel Cairo could be heading to the Mets or Phillies, both of whom need a second baseman following the broken bones suffered by Jose Valentin and Chase Utley? That's baseless speculation on my part, but youneverknow.\nSeries Wrap: @ Royals\nOffense: The Yanks scored 25 runs in the first three games of the series, but went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position in their 7-1 victory on Wednesday night (a game that was 3-1 after seven innings) and 0-for-12 with runners in scoring position while being shutout in the finale. I still can't give the offense a mixed review, but that's a bit worrisome.\nRobinson Cano 6 for 14, 2B, 3 BB, 2 RBI, 4 R\nJohnny Damon 6 for 15, 2 2B, BB, 3 RBI, 3 R, SB, CS\nDerek Jeter 7 for 19, 2B\nJorge Posada 4 for 12, 3B, 4 RBI, 3 R, 2 BB\nHideki Matsui 5 for 18, HR, 4 RBI, 4 R, 2 BB\nMelky Cabrera 4 for 15, 2B, HR, 4 RBI, 3 R, BB\nShelley Duncan 1 for 8, BB, R, 2 K\nRotation: Roger Clemens turned in the only quality start (7 IP, 2 R in the opener), but Chien-Ming Wang gave the Yankees six solid after growing cold on the bench while his offense sent nine men to the plate in each of the first two innings on Tuesday, and Mike Mussina protected a 2-1 lead for 5 2/3 innings on Wednesday. Kei Igawa, however, took a step backwards allowing five runs in 5 2/3 innings after allowing a combined five runs in ten innings over his two previous starts. Good signs for Igawa: no homers and just two walks.\nBullpen: Allowed just two runs in 10 2/3 innings, 12 baserunners. Both runs and five of those baserunners were surrendered by the last man out of the pen in the finale, meaning the Yankee pen had tossed 8 2/3 scoreless while allowing just seven baserunners prior to that.\nEveryone but Sean Henn. Everyone pitched, and Mike Myers was the only other reliever to allow as many as two baserunners in a single inning. Luis Vizcaino was again the best, throwing two perfect innings and striking out three.\nSean Henn allowed those two runs on three hits and two walks in the last two innings of the finale. One of those walks was the first taken by Tony Pe\u00f1a Jr. in 244 plate appearances.\nDefense: Just one error in four games. In his first appearance as a Yankee in the finale, Jose Molina threw out the only Royal to attempt a stolen base in the series (Emil Brown).\nConclusion: The Yankees remain on mission, but one worries that the offensive explosion will yield to a slump.\nJust like that the Yankee offense turned back into a pumpkin last night as they were blanked by the Royals, 7-0. It's not that they didn't put runners on base--once again they did that very well. They simply could not get a big hit. Hideki Matsui failed twice with runners on. In the first inning he popped up a 3-0 pitch with runners on the corners and in the the fifth he grounded out, swinging at the first pitch, with the bases loaded.\nThen there was Kei Igawa. More mediocrity. Igawa gives up hits when he's ahead in the count, and runs with two men out. He's an entirely frustrating pitcher to watch and with Phillip Hughes about set to return to the majors, it is likely that Igawa's days in the rotation are numbered. And if Joba Joba gets called up to pitch in the pen, the running man Igawa might find himself back in the land of Dunder Mifflin.\nNo soup for Alex Rodriguez either, who is sitting on career homer #499.\nHey, the Yanks were due for a stinker. They lose a game to the Red Sox who pounded the Indians in Cleveland. The Bombers now head to Baltimore to face the O's, who are coming off a three-game sweep of the Rays.\nThe Yankees have already won this four-game series against the Royals but man it sure would be nice if they win again tonight. Greed is good, cousin. The very iffy Kei Igawa goes for the Yanks, while Jorge De La Rosa is on the hill for K.C. As you may have already heard, Alex Rodriguez hit career dinger #499 against De La Rosa. Everyone in the park will likely know this fact by the time Rodriguez comes to hit and I'm sure they'll remind us a couple of several times on the YES broadcast too. I wouldn't count on A Rod getting too much to hit but who knows? The way he's been going this year, De La Rosa just better not make a mistake.\nYankee Panky #17: Reading the trades\nThe last week in July is arguably the most fun time of the baseball season from an editorial perspective, with the non-waiver trade deadline drawing ever closer. I also thought August was fun, when teams start unloading players onto the waiver wire and buyers eye the last piece or pieces to put together a run to the postseason.\nThe big questions every year were: Which teams are buying? Which teams are selling? Who\u2019s available? What will the market bear? And where do the Yankees fit into all of it, because they\u2019re always involved somehow.\nThe most difficult aspect of this, I found, was separating truth from rumor. At YES \u2014 the dot.com at least \u2014 we were at a slight disadvantage because we weren\u2019t around the team every day, and while we had contacts both internally and within the league, we were under strict orders to not break news. We were not a news gathering organization, although we tried to report. This was the Catch-22. Come trade deadline time, I didn\u2019t mind this so much, but selfishly, I wanted YESNetwork.com to be the go-to place for Yankees content, and I wanted us to be the first to get the story. If I noticed something in a blog or in a local paper or TV/Radio broadcast, I\u2019d pitch a reaction story to one of our broadcasters or outside contributors for some analysis and perspective on the matter. We also had access to wire copy and could run with an AP story.\nHow is the 2007 trade deadline being handled? If the Yankees were closer to the Red Sox, or even in first place, I believe there would be more of a push from the papers and the talkies to stir activity. Right or wrong, it\u2019s part of the fun of this time of year. This week and the days leading up to the Winter Meetings are the days you see information come from \u201csources close to the situation.\u201d The only trade the Yankees have made thus far was acquiring Jose Molina from the Angels in exchange for minor league pitcher Jeff Kennard.\nThere was the annual convention of team brass to discuss the grand plan, which the papers all used as Notebook leads from Tuesday night\u2019s game coverage. Brian Cashman has told reporters for months now that one trade is not the answer; it won\u2019t be enough to help the team because the current players haven\u2019t played to their capabilities. According to numerous reports, Cashman is intent on holding onto Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain and using them as the foundations of the Yankees\u2019 future pitching staff. He will not sacrifice them to land Mark Teixeira; he took a similar stance 2 \u00bd years ago, refusing to include Robinson Cano and/or Chien-Ming Wang, his best trade chips, in any deal.\nThe hot rumor has been Ty Wigginton for Scott Proctor, and that story has taken a couple of twists. First the Rays were interested; the Yankees wanted to give them Kyle Farnsworth, but he was too expensive. Then the Rays said they didn\u2019t want to trade within the division. Then they were interested again, but wanted Proctor because he fit the Rays\u2019 budget.\nPerhaps the best trade to be made is one made from within, as Joel Sherman suggests. But is Joe Torre ready to stop giving Kyle Farnsworth the benefit of the doubt?\nThere\u2019s still talk of bringing in a first baseman not named Andy Phillips: Wigginton, Shea Hillenbrand, and Big Tex are the names being bandied about, but until something happens, it\u2019s best to think a trade involving the Yankees is hearsay.\nSTERLING\u2019S TARNISHED SILVER\nMany of you expressed your enjoyment of John Sterling several posts back when I posed the question about your preferences for Yankees, Mets and Red Sox coverage. I will concede that Sterling is a capable entertainer. Sports are a form of entertainment, and with his flair for the dramatic, he fits that bill perfectly.\nBut John Sterling the baseball announcer is not as formidable as John Sterling the entertainer. Mike and the Mad Dog razz Sterling for his melodramatic calls and his homerism, and in many cases, it\u2019s justified. The 28 seconds of dead air that followed A-Rod bouncing into the 9th-inning double play in Game 4 against the Angels in \u201905 is just one example of patented Sterling. It sounded as if he took off his headphones in disgust, walked out of the booth to collect himself, and then came back when he was ready. Had Suzyn Waldman not been camped near the clubhouse to prep for postgame coverage, one of two things would have happened: 1) Sterling would have stayed put; 2) If Sterling was frustrated enough to cut off his speech, Waldman likely would have picked up on it and rehashed the double play and transitioned the broadcast to the next at-bat.\nMost recently, Sterling has fallen into the \u201cI think\u201d syndrome. It surfaced Monday night during the Kansas City broadcast, specifically Alex Gordon\u2019s second at-bat, when was discussing how two of the Royals\u2019 recent top draft picks \u2014 Gordon and Billy Butler \u2014 were in the lineup. It had potential to be a good note and a chance to educate Yankee fans about a player to watch for years to come. Except \u2026 in Sterling\u2019s description of Gordon, he mentioned how the 23-year-old third baseman \u201cwas a star at Wichita State, I think.\u201d\nI\u2019m sorry, but Sterling should have known Gordon played college ball at Nebraska and not Wichita State. He has the Royals\u2019 media guide. He has game notes. He has access to the Internet. He has every means necessary to be more than adequately prepared for such a talking point during the broadcast, and he dropped an I think.\nIn April, during the Yankees\u2019 first trip to Tampa Bay, when A-Rod was on his first home run binge and hit his 12th homer of the season, Sterling estimated how many home runs he needed to reach the 500 benchmark. The math was simple. He started 2007 with 464, and had 476 at the time of that home run. He needed 24 to get to 500. Sterling should have known the number \u2014 put it on an index card or something.\nAs a fan of the game and, at one time, an aspiring broadcaster \u2014 my dream job was to be a baseball PBP announcer, and I continue to study anyone I can. It upsets me when Sterling or anyone in such a position makes simple mistakes like the ones mentioned above, which give the audience the impression that he\u2019s unprepared.\nI did play-by-play for five different sports in college, including baseball, and was fortunate enough to do a couple of minor league games each of the past two years, and the most important thing you can portray to your listeners is a knowledge and understanding of the game itself and of the players represented on both teams. Sterling only does this in spurts. You might say I\u2019m focusing on the mistakes, but to me, mistakes like this are inexcusable. Especially when you\u2019re dealing with a team like the Yankees, whose fans are arguably the most passionate and knowledgeable in all of baseball.\nJohn Sterling has a great voice. But in this town, I think we deserve more than just a voice, theatrics, stories and a few chuckles.\nYour game recap this morning courtesy of Mike Mussina:\n\"Melky got into one early and gave us a lead, and I just did the best I could to hold them down until we could scratch out some more. We got to 3-1. I felt pretty good about it, and then we busted loose and scored four runs late so that kinda just put it away from there.\"\nTo flesh that out, Melky Cabrera hit a two-run homer of Gil Meche in the second. Mussina held the Royals scoreless through five thanks to a couple of extra ticks on his fastball and good command of his curve. The Royals bounced him with two outs in the sixth when Ross Gload doubled and Reggie Sanders singled him home to make it 2-1. Ron Villone got Alex Gordon to end that threat. The Yanks added a run in the top of the seventh. Mike Myers bailed out Scott Proctor in the bottom of that frame, and the Yanks exploded in the eighth with Alex Rodriguez hitting career homer number 499 off Gil Meche, a two-run shot to right. That bounced Meche in favor of Jimmy Gobble, who was greeted by a Matsui solo shot and then gave up a second run on a Cano single and an Andy Phillips double to put the final at 7-1.\nSo the Yanks win their fourth straight four-game series and, for the first time in that stretch, have a chance to sweep. Good signs: they've won Kei Igawa's last three starts, are on a six-game winning streak in which they've scored a minimum of seven runs in every game, and are 17-6 (.739) in July.\nIt's Not the Size of the Moose in the Fight . . .\nThe Yankees need to win just one of these final two games in Kansas City to stay on target by taking three of four from the Royals. Unfortunately, they'll have to do it with the weak back end of their rotation. Mike Mussina, who takes the ball tonight, is better than the disaster outing he had last time out in the series opener against Tampa Bay, but not by as much as he'd like to think. He has a 4.97 ERA on the season and a 4.71 ERA over his last five starts. He's very clearly the Yankees' number-four starter at this point, and his delicate diva act is getting old fast (and I say that as someone who finds his post-game churlishness hilarious and oddly endearing).\nBefore his last start, I reported that Mussina had a 3.40 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP in 11 starts with Wil Nieves behind the plate and a 9.00 ERA and 1.89 WHIP in four starts with Jorge Posada behind the plate (one of them being his injury-shortened outing in Minneapolis in April). That night, Moose was caught by Posada and gave up six runs in 4 2/3 innings pushing his Posada ERA to 9.53 and WHIP to 1.94. Well, Nieves is gone and Posada will be behind the plate again tonight, so Moose had better crank up his way back machine and remember how he turned in Cy Young-worthy seasons pitching to Posada in 2001 (3.15 ERA, 1.07 WHIP) and 2003 (3.40 ERA, 1.08 WHIP). Or, better yet, remember that it was Posada's advice on his changeup that stimulated a last gasp of brilliance early last season (2.42 ERA, 0.95 WHIP through the end of May (he might want to thank Jorge for his current two-year, $23-million deal while he's at it).\nWhatever it takes, it sure would be nice not to have to rely on Kei Igawa's high-wire act for that third win of the series. Further complicating the issue, however, is the fact that the Yankees will face the Royals best pitcher tonight, the maybe-not-so-overpaid-after-all Gil \"Ga!\" Meche. Meche has gone 7-6 with a 3.63 ERA (130 ERA+) for a team playing .434 baseball, and very much deserved his All-Star selection. Then again, Meche has been coming back to earth over the last two months, posting a 4.50 ERA in June and July and a 5.40 ERA in his last six starts (yet somehow going 3-0 over that same six-start stretch). Still, Meche held the major leagues' best offense to two runs on five hits and no walks over seven innings in his last outing, which took place in Detroit as the Royals romped to a 10-2 win over the Central Division leaders, and in his only outing against the Yankees last year held the Bombers to two runs on five hits and a walk in six innings while striking out six.\nThings have been easy for the Yankees over the last five games. That will likely change tonight. Here's hoping they can reignite that fighting spirit they displayed in last week's Toronto series.\nI don't mean to seem ungrateful, after all, the Yankees won 9-4, but did it have to take four hours?\nThe Yanks scored six runs off Scott Elarton before making their sixth out, driving Elarton from the game after 1 2/3 innings. Lefty reliever John Bale then walked the first three batters he faced (two of them on four pitches) to push across the one runner Elarton had left on base. That made it 7-0 after an inning and a half. When he got a chance to pitch, Chien-Ming Wang wasn't at his best, but he didn't need to be, and one can forgive him a lack of sharpness considering the amount of time he spent waiting for his team to stop hitting. Wang, who actually got more outs in the air than on the ground, gave up two in the second and two in the fifth and yielded to the bullpen after six innings and 98 pitches. By then the Yankees had tagged on two more runs to set the score at the eventual final. Derek Jeter had the big night going 4 for 6 with a double (though oddly he drove in no runs and scored only one), while Robinson Cano tied a career high with three walks.\nIn total, the Yankees put 23 men on base (13 hits, nine walks--six of them by Bale--and a hit batsman) and forced the Royals to throw 224 pitches (Elarton and Bale threw 109 pitches in a combined three innings). The only inning in which the Bombers were retired in order was the eighth (by Joel Peralta) which was the first time the Yankees had gone down in order since Al Reyes' 1-2-3 eighth inning in Saturday's nightcap, a streak of 24 innings with at least one base runner. Somewhere around the seventh inning I gave up and watched The Daily Show. The game was still in the eighth inning when I flipped back.\nUpdating Mike Carminati's statistics, the Yankees have now scored 56 runs in their last four games, which is the second-highest four-game total since 1950 when the Red Sox scored 1,027 runs in 154 games, one of just two 1,000-run seasons since 1936 (the other being the 1999 Indians, who scored 1,009 runs in 162 games). Those 1950 Sox scored 6.67 runs per game, the fourth-best average of all time (the 1931, '36, and '30 Yankees being the top three). The current Yanks have now scored 5.72 runs per game on the season, which remains second in the majors to the Tigers' 5.82.\nMore importantly, the Red Sox beat the Indians again, which is exactly what the Yankees want to see as they're gaining much faster in the Wild Card race, where they're now just 4.5 games back. If they can get within three by August 10, they'll be in position to take the lead by beating the Tribe head-to-head.\nThe Yankees have scored 47 runs in their last three games and 54 in their last four. Mike Carminati has the historical significance of that outburst covered. The only question remaining is how much they'll add to it tonight against Scott Elarton, who comes off the DL sporting a 9.17 ERA. Elarton is a famously homer prone pitcher who has given up 185 home runs in 169 career starts. This year he's given up a dozen dingers in just eight starts. Though he's been hurt most of the year (offseason shoulder surgery and most recently a sprained right foot), Elarton has not finished the sixth inning in any of his eight starts thus far, and has allowed fewer than four runs in only his first start of the year, which came against the hitless White Sox in mid-May.\nBy comparison, Chien-Ming Wang, who takes the mound for the Yankees tonight, has allowed just six home runs in 17 starts and none in his last four, over which he has posted a 2.03 ERA. An interesting side note, opposing basestealers are 0 for 3 against Wang in those four games, this after they started the season with five successful steals against him.\nJohnny Damon will DH with Melky in center, Abreu back in right, and Shelley Duncan on the bench tonight.\nIn other news, Phil Hughes will make what could be his penultmate rehab start for triple-A Scranton tonight. He'll be joined in the dugout by fast-rising 2006 draftees Joba Chamberlain and Ian Kennedy, who were just promoted from Trenton (Tyler Clippard and Chase Wright have been demoted to double-A to make room).\nAfter their offensive outburst against the Devil Rays over the weekend, the Yankees suffered a disappointing letdown in Kansas City last night. Their bats went cold, and they plated just nine runs, on only 13 hits and four walks.\nThen again, it\u2019s possible that Sunday\u2019s 21-4 score may have warped my perspective somewhat.\nMonday's game was actually fairly close throughout the middle innings, but the Yankees won 9-2 behind a strong, no-nonsense performance from Roger Clemens, who went seven innings and allowed only four hits. He walked nobody and struck out three. The Royals scored in the 4th on a Mark Grudzielanek double, a groundout, and a wild pitch, and again in the 7th on a solo home run from the unfortunately named Ross Gload, but that was all. (And by the way, you don\u2019t scare me, Grudzielanek -- I\u2019ve been typing out Mientkiewicz for months now. Punk.)\nThe Yankees scored early and late, and once again every Yankee starter had at least one hit. In the first, Hideki Matsui singled home Melky Cabrera and Derek Jeter; in the second, it was Johnny Damon\u2019s double that scored Robinson Cano and Shelley Duncan.\nThose four runs turned out to be enough for Clemens, Luis Vizcaino \u2013 who is teaching me how to trust again \u2013 and Ron Villone. But the Yankees added five insurance runs in the ninth, anyway, off of Kansas City relievers, turning the game into a last-minute blowout and keeping Mariano Rivera in the bullpen. The first of those runs was Alex Rodriguez's 100th RBI of the season, which came on a sharp single up the middle.\n-Melky\u2019s nifty catch on a foul ball in the first. It seemed so certain to drop in that the YES cameras didn\u2019t even bother cutting away from the batter, and the play occurred offscreen.\nCabrera\u2019s batting average and OBP have risen steadily every month this season , from .200/.238 in April to .368/415 in July. Given that he won\u2019t be 23 until August 11, that strikes me as encouraging, as does the fact that he\u2019s started following A-Rod\u2019s workout program. Seriously, if they trade this kid \u2013 even if it\u2019s a smart trade that I should logically approve of \u2013 I\u2019m going to throw a fit.\n-There were several sweet familial moments during the game: Chris and Dave Duncan were in the stands watching brother/son Shelley, thanks to a Cardinals off-day, while in the Yankee dugout Tony Pena tried his best not to look happy when Tony Jr., the Royals\u2019 shortstop, went 2 for 4. I think Tony Junior looks a little like an elf.\n-Johnny Damon is starting to look human again; maybe he really has gotten healthy. He was three-for-five last night, and several of those were hard-hit.\n-The Yankees announced that Joba Chamberlain and Ian Kennedy have been promoted to AAA. Just typing that, I started salivating a little bit.\nDamn Kansas, that song\u2019s gonna be stuck in my head all day now. Carry on my waaaayward soooon, there\u2019ll be peace when yooou are dooone, lay your weary heeead to reeest, don\u2019t you cry nooo mooooooore\u2026\nThis just in: the Kansas City Royals don't suck. At least they don't suck as much as they usually do. The Yankees' next three series are against the Royals, Orioles, and White Sox and the Royals just might be the most dangerous of those three teams as they are currently tied in the AL Central with Chicago and just one game behind Baltimore in the overall standings, but have been much hotter than either of late.\nSince the end of interleague play, the Royals have gone 13-8 while taking series from the Angels (a three-game sweep), Mariners, Red Sox, and Tigers. They also lost two of three to the Indians by a combined three runs and their only loss to Detroit came in ten innings. Over those 21 games, they've outscored their opponents 124-81, which works out to a .701 winning percentage (or a 15-6 record). By comparison, the Blue Jays are 11-13, the Orioles are 12-10 (not counting their suspended game with the Yankees), the White Sox are 14-12, and the Devil Rays are 5-20 since the end of interleague play.\nWhy have the Royals been so good against the league's best teams? Their bullpen has a lot to do with it. Led by a finally healthy Octavio Dotel (3.34 ERA, 10 SV) and Rule-5 steal Joakim Soria (2.34, 10 SV while Dotel was hurt), and rounded out by the setup duo of veteran righty David Riske (2.42 ERA) and 25-year-old lefty Jimmy Gobble (2.67), the Royals' pen has the sixth-best ERA in the American League, and things are only getting better as Zack Greinke is thriving in his new middle-relief role with a 1.88 ERA since June 10.\nThat strong performance by the pen means that the Royals can hold onto the leads handed to them by their surging offense, which scored 5.9 runs per game over that 21-game stretch. The leaders there have been veteran second baseman Mark Grudzielanek, who has hit .431/.453/.510 since coming off the DL on July 6, utility man Esteban German, who has hit .371/.443/.548 while starting 15 of those 21 games (initially in place of Grudzielanek at second, and since then spotting in at third base and pushing struggling \u00fcberprospect Alex Gordon to first base), and rookie designated hitter Billy Butler, another top prospect, who has hit .373/.422/.590 since being recalled on June 20.\nThere's something amiss, however. It seems no one else has really hit much at all over those last 21 games, and, since Grudzielanek and German essentially split second base over that span, that means the offense has been riding on two hot bats, Butler's and the second baseman's. Catcher John Buck, who leads the team with 16 homers (more than twice the total of second-place Mike Sweeney), has slugged .524 over that stretch, but with only three taters and a .292 on-base percentage. Reggie Sanders has the next-best season line on the team, but injuries have limited him to 16 starts on the season. He was just reactivated from the DL a week ago and has made just three starts since then, going 2 for 10 in those games. First basemen Ryan Shealy and Mike Sweeney (surprise) are back on the DL. Ross Gload, who seemed redundant earlier in the season, has instead been merely punchless filling in for Shealy. Despite occasionally threatening to fulfill his promise, Alex Gordon has hit just .240/.301/.320 over those last 21 games. David DeJesus and Mark Teahen have been better than that, but not by enough. Tony Pe\u00f1a Jr. was never supposed to hit in the first place, and hasn't, but is still outperforming Emil Brown (.228/.288/.319 on the season).\nAre the Royals all smoke and mirrors? Yeah, probably. Butler is the real deal, and German is a criminally neglected player who deserves to start somewhere (the Indians should be banging down the Royals' door for him), but Grudzielanek is obviously in way over his head, Gordon is really the only hitter likely to rise up to replace his production, and it just might be that Gordon isn't as ready for the Show as the Royals thought he was. The bullpen is likely to cool off at some point as well, which leaves this team in the hands of Butler, German, and Gil Meche. There's no doubt that the Royals are a better team than they were a year ago, but they're still a legitimate last-place team (despite the White Sox's best efforts). The only real danger is that they're having a lot of fun playing the spoiler right now, and there's nothing that says that's going to stop this week with the Yankees in town. There are still eight players on this Yankee team who remember the devastating sweep the team suffered in Kansas City in 2005.\nTonight, Roger Clemens looks to get the Yankee road trip off on the right foot against lefty Odalis Perez. Clemens has a 2.63 ERA over his last three starts despite taking the only loss in the Yankees' second-half-opening series in Tampa Bay. Perez, meanwhile, has a 7.47 ERA over his last three starts, but still managed to pick up a win against the Red Sox in his last outing (5 IP, 5 R) thanks to the four runs the Royals scored off Julian Tavarez in the fifth inning of that game. The big hits in that inning? Doubles by Grudzielanek and Butler. It sounds a bit extreme, but the key to this series may be making sure those two don't get anything to hit in big spots.\nSeries Wrap: vs. Devil Rays\nOffense: Forty-nine runs in four games? I'd say that's pretty good.\nRobinson Cano 11 for 16, 2B, HR, 6 RBI, 6 R, BB\nShelley Duncan 4 for 12, 3 HR, 7 RBI, 3 R, 2 BB, 4 K\nHideki Matsui 7 for 19, 3 HR, 7 RBI, 5 R, BB\nAlex Rodriguez 5 for 11, 2 2B, 2 HR, 7 RBI, 6 R, 4 BB\nBobby Abreu 7 for 17, 2B, HR, 6 RBI, 6 R, BB, 2 SB\nAndy Phillips 7 for 18, HR, 4 RBI, 5 R, BB\nJohnny Damon 4 for 11, 3 2B, 5 RBI, 4 R, 2 BB, SB\nWil Nieves 3 for 5, 3 2B, 3 RBI, 3 R\nUh, Miguel Cairo (1 for 5, 2B, 3 R, BB, 3 K)?\nSean Henn struck out in his only at-bat after Joe Torre decided he didn't need a DH anymore in the finale.\nRotation: In four games, the Yanks got one start from their fifth starter and another from a minor league spot starter, so you knew it wouldn't be pretty going in, but no one expected that Mike Mussina would have the worst start of the weekend (4 2/3 IP, 7 H, 6 R, 3 BB, 5 K, 1 HR). Andy Pettitte turned in the only quality start in the finale, doing just that (6 IP, 3 R) while allowing 11 baserunners (8 H, 3 BB), but striking out eight for good measure. Not a good weekend for starting pitching.\nBullpen: The pen actually did worse than Mussina in the opener (8 R, 7 ER in 4 1/3 IP). In the remaining three games they allowed 3 runs in 11 1/3 innings while allowing 15 baserunners, which is almost exactly what they did in the Toronto series (11 2/3 IP, 2 R, 15 baserunners). Take out Friday night's disaster and that's a 1.96 RA (that is Run Average, with unearned runs included) over seven games and a 1.30 WHIP. That'll work.\nSure, Sean Henn was facing a demoralized Devil Rays squad that was already down 18-3, but he still tossed two scoreless innings in his first major league work in nearly a month and a half, striking out three. Luis Vizcaino picked up both wins in Saturday's double header on the basis of 2 1/3 scoreless innings. Mariano Rivera tossed a scoreless inning striking out two in his only work of the weekend in Saturday's day game. Shockingly, Kyle Farnsworth did the same.\nAfter a 14-day layoff, Edwar Ramirez had a disaster outing on Friday night. He entered the game with the Yanks down 5-0, a man on second and two outs. He then walked two men on nine pitches to load the bases and gave up a grand slam to Dioner Navarro, a sub-.200 hitter who had one prior home run on the season. He then walked two more men on eight more pitches before Mike Myers was brought in to get the one out Ramirez proved incapable of recording. Brian Bruney gave up four runs on four hits and two walks while getting just three outs. Scott Proctor gave up two solo home runs in addition to two other hits in two innings, possibly scuttling the rumored Proctor-Wigginton swap in the process.\nDefense: Three errors in four games (Matsui, Nieves, Cano), curiously two of them led to unearned runs charged to Mike Myers, the only runs Myers allowed on the weekend.\nConclusion: The Yanks beat the snot out of the worst team in their division, as they should have, but all that offense hid some less than encouraging pitching. Still, three series into the cupcake part of their schedule, the Yanks are 9-3. They're now alone in third place in the Wild Card race, 6.5 games behind Cleveland, but just six back in the loss column.\nWell, that was a real nail-biter for about ten minutes there. Do you remember when, in previous recaps, I joked about how Andy Pettitte never seems to get any run support? Never mind. Playing Super Mario to the Devil Rays\u2019 goombas, the Yankees won the last game of the series 21-4. Look at that box score\u2026 I mean, really look at it.\nThis wasn\u2019t Andy Pettitte\u2019s best outing. He was uneven, alternately dominating (8 Ks) and all too hittable, with 11 baserunners allowed in six innings of work. But he managed to ease out of most of his jams without too much damage, just three runs total -- not that it mattered.\nThe Devil Rays took a one-run lead in the second on a Carlos Pena homer, and I hope that, for their sake, they really savored the moment. The Yankees tied it in the bottom of the inning off D-Rays starter James Shields, on another bomb from Hideki Matsui, who set a career high with five hits. I\u2019d say he\u2019s continuing his hot streak, but to be fair, a well-watered potted plant might have teed off on Tampa Bay's pitching on Sunday. The Bombers took a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the third, but Pettitte immediately gave it back with a series of singles that tied the game; as he wriggled out of the inning, I thought we were in for a slugfest, but a tense slugfest.\nThen the bottom of the fourth happened. Rather than try to summarize the entire thing, I\u2019ll just give you the straight play-by-play:\nRobinson Cano triples.\nAndy Phillips singles to left, Cano scores, 4-3 Yankees.\nShelley Duncan walks.\nMelky Cabrera grounds into force out, Duncan out at second, Phillips to third. One out.\nDerek Jeter singles to right, Phillips scores, Melky to third. 5-3 Yankees.\nBobby Abreu singles to right, Melky scores. 6-3 Yankees.\nDouble steal, throwing error, Jeter scores, Abreu to third. 7-3 Yankees.\nAlex Rodriguez walks.\nHideki Matsui singles to center, Abreu scores. 8-3 Yankees.\nPitcher Casey Fossum replaces James Shields.\nJorge Posada singles to left, Rodriguez scores. 9-3 Yankees.\nRobinson Cano singles. Matsui scores. 10-3 Yankees.\nWild pitch, runners advance.\nAndy Phillips strikes out. Two out.\nDuncan Shelly hits a three-run home run to left. 13-3 Yankees.\nMelky Cabrera walks.\nDerek Jeter grounds out.\nNow that\u2019s what I call Farnsworth-proofing. It was not unlike batting practice, except, according to Torre in the Times, even better:\n\u201cI\u2019ve never seen anything like these last two days,\u201d Manager Joe Torre said. \u201cEven in batting practice you don\u2019t get hits every time you swing the bats. This was incredible.\u201d\nOuch. This all took more than half an hour, and Pettitte was understandably a bit rusty on his return to the mound, despite having retreated to the clubhouse to throw into a net... but by that point, nobody cared.\nThe Yankees scored seven more runs before the end, including homers from Abreu, Cano, Rodriguez, and Duncan, again. The rookie\u2019s now gotten three curtain calls in two days, and while there\u2019s really nowhere to go from there but down, his goofy, intense enthusiasm has been charming; I plan to enjoy it while it lasts.\nThe Devil Rays, meanwhile, dragged out a series of interchangeable, young, overmatched relievers, of whom only Gary Glover was at all effective. And thank god for him, because otherwise the Yankees would probably still be batting in the sixth. The bullpen wasn't helped by its fielders, who were charged with two errors but made a considerable number of other sloppy mistakes besides. \u201cSome of the play today, and in this series - it\u2019s just not acceptable at the major-league level,\u201d said Al Leiter, sounding pained.\nBy the end of the game, Miguel Cairo was at short, Johnny Damon was inserted in right field, Andy Phillips played third and Duncan was at 1st. Sean Henn planted himself at the far outside edge of the batter's box and struck out, in his first Major League at-bat, as the Yankees had lost their DH. Posada was still behind the plate, however; new Yankee Jose Molina had only just arrived, and could be seen looking on with bemusement at the Yanks\u2019 increasingly giddy dugout antics. He only narrowly avoided getting caught in the bouncing Cabrera-Cano sandwich that engulfed A-Rod after his home run.\n--Fun Facts: Every Yankee starter was on base at least twice, scored at least one run, and had at least one RBI; the team has scored 38 runs in its last two games, on 45 hits. For perspective, the Yankees haven\u2019t had two 20-hit games in a row since they were just proto-Yankees at the dawn of the 20th century, and haven\u2019t scored this many runs in back-to-back games since the Great Depression.\n--Among the many balls careening out of the Stadium yesterday was Alex Rodriguez\u2019s 498th career home run, which means his 500th is likely to come on the road. That\u2019s too bad, but really, it seems ungrateful to complain about any aspect of A-Rod\u2019s current season. While I realize that RBIs are an unreliable, largely team-dependant statistic and rarely pay them much mind\u2026 if you have 99 of them on July 22nd, you\u2019re doing something right.\nThose of you more intrigued by the sultry siren-song of sabermetrics might be happy to learn that Magglio Ordonez\u2019s reign of VORPish terror has finally come to an end, and A-Rod has resumed his rightful place at the top of the charts, 59.3 to 54.\n--Several commenters have made less than totally flattering remarks about Shelley Duncan's appearance over the last few days (it's those deep-set eyes and the high forehead, I suppose), but I'm still trying to figure out who he reminds me of. In any case, he's got that old-school ballplayer look, doesn't he?\nMomeana, Molina\nDuring the nightcap of yesterday's double header, the Yankees announced that they had traded minor league relief pitcher Jeff Kennard to the Angels for catcher Jose Molina. Molina will become the Yankees' new backup catcher as soon as he arrives in New York (or Kansas City if he doesn't make it today), at which point Wil Nieves will be designated for assignment.\nFirst, let's dispense with Kennard. He's a right-handed relief pitcher who throws a mid-90s fastball with no movement and gets a bit wild from time to time. He turns 26 later this week and has yet to crack triple-A. This describes Scott Proctor in mid-2003 just before the Yankees acquired him in the Robin Ventura deal, except that Proctor had some experience as a starter and Kennard has made just one start as a professional. Besides, who needs two Scott Proctors? The Yankees used to have another Scott Proctor named Bret Prinz. Prior to the 2005 season, they traded Prinz, then 28 and with 95 major league games under his belt, to the Angels for Wil Nieves. Prinz has since pitched his way through the Rockies and White Sox organizations and is getting lit up for the triple-A Iowa Cubs in the Pacific Coast League. These guys are a dime a dozen, so there's no harm using one to try to upgrade a position that's sorely lacking at the big-league level. Kennard had been on the 40-man roster only because he'd been in the minors so long that the Yankees had to add him to keep him out of the Rule 5 draft. They did that because they thought they had made a breakthrough by dropping Kennard's arm slot. Kennard was pitching well for Trenton, but he was no Edwar Ramirez.\nAs for the catching situation, Wil Nieves went 2 for 3 with two doubles in last night's game. That makes him 4 for his last 10, all four hits being doubles. That recent surge pushed Nieves' season line to .164/.190/.230. It's obscene that the Yankees waited this long to make a move. Given that Nieves hit .259/.298/.346 in triple-A last year, there was nothing to wait around for. Anyone, even last year's failure Sal Fasano, would have been an improvement (in his brief time with Toronto this year, Fasano hit .178/.229/.311, which is a hair better than what he did for the Yankees last year). By acquiring the middle Molina, the Yankees have done better than Fasano: The Sequel, though not by a whole lot.\nMolina is ultimately little more than Wil Nieves four years in the future (though without a big brother clearing the way for him, Nieves is unlikely to get the opportunity Molina has had). A career .245/.314/.319 hitter in the minor leagues, Molina first sniffed the majors with the Cubs in 1999 at the age of 24 (Nieves did the same at the same age with the Padres). After brief appearances with the Angels in 2001 and 2002 (though more extensive than the ones Nieves had with the Yankees over the last two years), Molina finally cracked the 100 at-bat mark in 2003 with a Nieves-like .184/.210/.219 line. The next year, however, Molina got all the way to 203 at-bats and looked like a major league backup catcher, hitting .261/.296/.374 (hey, that's what these guys hit). It's been downhill from there, however, as Molina's production has declined annually, bottoming out at .228/.246/.293 thus far this year.\nYes, Jose Molina, 32-year-old, righty-hitting backup catcher, is a terrible hitter (ML career .238/.276/.339), but even that dreadful career line would be better production than the Yankees have had from a backup catcher since 2004. Read it and weep:\n2005: John Flaherty (.165/.206/.252)\n2006: Kelly Stinnett (.228/.282/.304)\n2006: Sal Fasano (.143/.222/.286)\n2007: Wil Nieves (.164/.190/.230)\nThe Yankees had no idea how good they had it with Kelly Stinnett.\nMolina has one other advantage over Nieves: he can throw out baserunners. Nieves has thrown out only six of 27 baserunners this season (22%), and 10 of 43 on his career (23%). Molina has thrown out 28 percent of baserunners this season and a far more impressive 41 percent in his career. Over the last three seasons (2004 to 2006), Molina has thrown out 47 percent of the men trying to steal on him.\nSo the Yankees have made a very modest upgrade at their least important position (only Kevin Thompson, Chris Basak, and Shelley Duncan have had fewer plate appearances for the Yankees than Wil Nieves this season) for a minimal expense. They say nothing ventured, nothing gained. Both may be true in this case, but if Molina gets hot (last year he hit .377/.414/.642 from the beginning of July through mid-August), it'll be a great move. If he tanks like Fasano did last year, he'll replicate Nieves' production and provide better defense. In that way this is something of a win-win for the Yankees. If nothing else, the fact that Edwar Ramirez and Shelley Duncan have had recent callups and that Wil Nieves has been replaced (and not by triple-A duds Raul Chavez or Omir Santos) proves that Brian Cashman is paying attention. Every little bit helps, even if it's a very little bit. I just hope Mike Mussina can handle the disruption.\nWhat better way to rebound from a dispiriting loss on Friday than to pummel that same opponent in a double-header sweep on Saturday? That's exactly what the Yankees did, rebounding from Friday night's 14-4 drubbing to win a pair by a combined 24-8 score yesterday.\nThe Yanks fell behind early in game one as Kei Igawa gave up solo homers in the first and second innings, but Igawa got out of a bases-loaded jam in the third when Delmon Young lined into a 4-3 double play, and Hideki Matsui tied things up with a rocket two-run homer into the right field seats in the fourth. Igawa again left the bases loaded in the fifth. Luis Vizcaino took over in the sixth, and in the bottom of that frame, the Yanks dropped a five-spot on reliever Jae Kuk Ryu. That rally almost didn't happen. Following a leadoff single by Bobby Abreu and a pitch that drilled Alex Rodriguez in the lower back (later prompting Derek Jeter and Robinson Cano to good-naturedly mock Rodriguez's dance of pain in the dugout), Ryu struck out Matsui and Jorge Posada. Fortunately, Cano delivered a tie-breaking two-out single that plated Abreu, then took second on the throw home, which allowed him to score on Andy Phillips' subsequent game-breaking two-RBI single. Shelley Duncan then drove the nail in the D-Rays coffin with his first major league home run, and the Yankees got more laughs out of Duncan's overly enthusiastic hi-fives (he almost beheaded Andy Phillips after crossing the plate, and nearly tore Kim Jones' shoulder out of the socket when she tried to join in the fun by asking for a hi-five during the post-game interview).\nScott Proctor gave one back in the eighth on a solo homer by backup catcher Raul Casanova (whose beard and batting scowl make him look more than a little like Ice Cube) to set the final score at 7-3 Yanks.\nThe Yankees would be doing more laughing in the nightcap as Tampa Bay spot-starter J.P. Howell appeared to be throwing batting practice. Johnny Damon set the tone. Akinori Iwamura hit Matt DeSalvo's first pitch deep into the corner in left where Damon, starting in left field in place of the DH Matsui, made a brilliant leaping catch, slamming in to the wall on his way down and then flexing at Melky Cabrera in celebration. After DeSalvo struck out the next two men, Damon drew a four-pitch walk from Howell, then stole second to jump start the Yankee offense. A single by Derek Jeter and doubles by Abreu and Alex Rodriguez make it 3-0 Yankees before Howell had recorded an out. The Rays countered with two, but the Yankees added one more in the second and three more in the third, with a double by Wil Nieves, of all people, being the big blow in the latter inning. That made it 7-2 Yankees, much as the first game had been, but this time the Rays rallied scoring two in the fifth to drive DeSalvo from the game and one in the sixth off reliever Brian Bruney. That was as close as they'd get, however, as the Bombers greeted former Yankee Jay Witasick with another five-run sixth inning, this one capped by Alex Rodriguez's 497th career home run (and 33rd of 2007). Brian Stokes got thet same sort of greeting in the seventh with Hideki Matsui's second homer of the day capping off another five-run inning that set the final score at 17-5.\nThus the Yankees keep the dream alive with the opportunity to win the series today as Andy Pettitte takes on James Shields, a match-up the Yankees won in Tampa to kick off the season's second half thanks in part to fourth-inning home runs by Jeter, Rodriguez, and Abreu off Shields.\nAs for yesterday's starters. Igawa again bent, but didn't break and struck out six men in five innings along the way, earning another start. DeSalvo de-salvaged (sorry) his standing a bit with a passable outing that saw him strike out more than he walked for the first time in a major league appearance. Nonetheless, he's headed back to Scranton and will be replaced by Sean Henn, who heads to the bullpen to take Edwar Ramirez's spot. Since he was last optioned down to triple-A in late-June, Henn has posted a 2.03 ERA in 13 1/3 innings, striking out 10 against just one walk. Luis Vizcaino, meanwhile, earned the win in both games yesterday. Vizcaino, who also picked up the win on Opening Day, is now 8-2 on the season. That four of those wins have come in the last week is a testament to Joe Torre's increasingly and surprisingly wily use of his most effective set-up man.\nThe Yanks not only got smoked by the Rays tonight, they used up six pitchers in the process. Moose was terrible and Edwar Ramirez wasn't much better and when it was all over, the Rays won 14-4. To make matters worse, the Sox rolled tonight, and just like that, the Yanks are eight games out again. With a killer double header tomorrow. Who is gunna pitch if things get dicey? Oh man, it could be a long weekend.\nYou may commiserate in the comments section below.\nThe Yankees have done exactly what they've needed to thus far in the second half, taking three of four from both the Devil Rays and Blue Jays. Along the way they won five games in a row prior to yesterday's loss, but the only one of those games that was decided by more than two runs (Wednesday's 6-1 win), saw the Yanks trailing 1-0 in the seventh. Perhaps these close games are helping the team maintain its focus and avoid any bad habits that might emerge in garbage time at-bats, but I'd think they could use the emotional respite that a nice blowout win could provide (certainly Luis Vizcaino and Mariano Rivera could use an extra day of rest having pitched in six and five of the last eight games respectively).\nThe pressure won't ease up until the Yankees either clinch a playoff spot or get eliminated, and it's right back on them tonight. Having taken three of four from the Devil Rays last weekend, they need to do the same this weekend, and with Matt DeSalvo and Kei Igawa getting the starts in a double header tomorrow that's sure also see Wil Nieves get a start behind the plate, there's extra pressure to win tonight behind Mike Mussina, who will be caught by Jorge Posada for the first time since he gave up seven runs in 6 2/3 innings to the Red Sox on May 22. (For the curious, Mussina has posted a 3.40 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP in 11 starts with Nieves behind the plate and a 9.00 ERA and 1.89 WHIP in four starts with Posada behind the plate, one of them being his injury-shortened outing in Minneapolis in April).\nAs for the Devil Rays, after losing three of four to the Yankees, they took two of three at home from the scuffling Angels by a combined score of 15-8. The Rays have also made a trio of roster moves since the Yankees were in town. Most importantly, they've activated closer Al Reyes from the DL, farming out lefty Jon Switzer in the process. They also just tipped their roster from 11 to 13 pitchers in preparation for the four games they'll play over the next three days in the Bronx. Specifically, they optioned out infielder Jorge Cantu and designated outfielder Dustan Mohr for assignment while calling up righties Jae Kuk Ryu and Scott Dohmann. Word is the Rays will make yet another move to bring up J.P. Howell for a spot start in the second game of Saturday's double header, while Ryu could get the start in the day game if Jason Hammel is needed to eat innings for Edwin Jackson tonight.\nThey Yankees, have made a roster move of their own, calling up Shelley Duncan and optioning Kevin Thompson back to Scranton, while moving Doug Mientkiewicz to the 60-day DL to make room for Duncan on the 40-man roster. Duncan has been raking at Scranton, hitting .295/.380/.577 with 25 homers and 79 RBIs, but also 88 strikeouts. A big (6'5\") outfielder/first baseman who's not particularly adept at either position, he's got the Adam Dunn skill set, but from the right-hand side of the plate. Duncan is no Dunn, however. He's 40 days older than Dunn, was a career .251/.334/.468 hitter prior to this year, and didn't crack triple-A until late last year on the verge of his 27th birthday. Duncan has 128 home runs in his minor league career. Dunn has 224 in his major league career. That Duncan went to college (University of Arizona), but Dunn didn't is not enough to explain even a fraction of that discrepancy. Still, it's worth a shot to see if Duncan can keep his bat hot (he's hitting .367 with four homers since the break) as the Yankee DH, which is where he'll start tonight (Johnny Damon will play center as Melky Cabrera's sitting due to the abdominal strain he suffered in yesterday's game).\nTonight's mound match-up of Mussina and Jackson is a rematch of Sunday's finale in Tampa, which the Yankees won 7-6 after some shoddy work by both bullpens. In that game, Jackson, who sports a season ERA of 7.14, held the Yankees scoreless for four frames before coughing up a four spot in the fifth. He finished after six innings having allowed just those four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six. Mussina got the better of Jackson by allowing just three runs over six innings, but he also allowed five more hits and struck out none. Jackson has been a significantly better pitcher on the road this year, while Mussina has been a touch worse at home, so tonight is no given for the Yanks. They'll have to keep on fighting.\nCard Corner--Chris Chambliss\nChris Chambliss\u2014Topps Company\u20141977 (No. 220)\nWith two episodes of The Bronx Is Burning in the books, I can safely say I\u2019m a big fan of the ESPN miniseries. Though it has received mixed reviews, I think the adaptation of Jonathan Mahler\u2019s book is exceedingly well done, full of both entertainment and educational value for someone like me who actually lived through 1977 in the greater metropolitan region of New York. (The interpretations of Billy Martin and George Steinbrenner by John Turturro and Oliver Platt, respectively, have been wonderful. And Leonard Armond Robinson has been appropriately hysterical as Mickey Rivers.) There are some smaller quibbles, such as the lack of a muscular frame or convincing home swing on the part of Daniel Sunjata as Reggie Jackson, but in a film like this, I\u2019m less concerned with the on-field realism as I am the off-field by-play between Jackson and the other major characters.\nAs with any good historical film, The Bronx Is Burning has shed some light on otherwise little-known facts associated with that tumultous 1977 season. I\u2019ve already learned two tidbits that I wasn\u2019t previously aware of: that Bobby Grich claimed Steinbrenner \"threatened\" him during failed contract negotiations and that Steinbrenner dropped a hint to Billy Martin that he would pursue Frank Robinson if Martin failed as manager. Of course, The Boss would have needed to work out a deal with the Indians, who had F. Robby under contract as their manager at the time. I wonder if Steinbrenner would have tried to pull off a managerial trade, sending Martin to the Indians for Robinson, a bigger name but one who was less skilled in the area of game management.\nIn honor of those 1977 Yankees, I thought it might be fitting to pay tribute to perhaps the quietest and least controversial member of that team: Chris Chambliss. Only three seasons earlier, Carroll Christopher Chambliss had joined the Yankees as the centerpiece to one of the most famous \"massacres\" in the history of the franchise. While Most Yankee fans fondly recall the \"Boston Massacre,\" the memorable four-game sweep of the rival Red Sox in 1978 that helped the New Yorkers claim the pennant, fewer fans likely remember another \"massacre\"\u2014the \"Friday Night Massacre.\" It took place in 1974, when the Yankees traded away nearly half of their pitching staff in a stunning and controversial deal.\nOn Friday night, April 26, the Yankees edged the Texas Rangers, 4-3, to remain within a half-game of first place in the AL East. In the meantime, the Yankee braintrust put the finishing touches on a monster seven-player deal with the Cleveland Indians. The Pinstripers surrendered four pitchers\u2014right-handers Fred Beene, Tom Buskey and Steve Kline, and left-hander Fritz Peterson\u2014or 40 per cent of their 10-man staff. In exchange, the Yankees received pitchers Dick Tidrow and Cecil Upshaw and a young first baseman named Chris Chambliss, pictured here in a 1973 Topps card\u2014one of the last times that he would be seen in an Indians uniform.\nThe trade shocked both Yankee players and fans. \"I can\u2019t believe this trade,\" star outfielder Bobby Murcer told The Sporting News while expressing his belief that the front office had lost confidence in the team\u2019s ability to win. \"You don\u2019t trade four pitchers,\" longtime ace Mel Stottlemyre informed Yankee beat writer Phil Pepe. \"You just don\u2019t.\" Stottlemyre\u2019s batterymate, the often gruff Thurman Munson, offered an even more candid assessment. \"They\u2019ve got to be kidding,\" said a not-so-diplomatic Munson. Yankee fans seemed to agree with the assessment of the team\u2019s veteran players. Hordes of Yankee followers flooded the team\u2019s switchboard with calls of complaint. And when Chambliss, Tidrow, and Upshaw made their first appearances at Yankee Stadium, they received a barrage of boos from the rush-to-judgment contingent in the Bronx.\nThe media also joined in the criticism\u2014and the questioning. Why did the Yankees give up so many pitchers in one trade, especially someone like Buskey, who had been named the team\u2019s outstanding rookie during the spring? Why did they trade for a first baseman when they really needed a second baseman? (The 1974 version of the Pinstripers struggled to find a pivotman. They started the season with an aging Horace Clarke before making trades for mediocrities Sandy Alomar and Fernando Gonzalez.) What in the world was the front office thinking in making such an unbalanced deal? One Cleveland writer suggested the Indians should send the Yankees a thank-you note for their generous gift of a quartet of pitchers. \"Make sure you thank them for me, too,\" declared ex-Yankee Fritz Peterson in an interview with Cleveland beat writer Russell Schneider.\nThe barbs didn\u2019t faze Yankee president Gabe Paul, the architect of the blockbuster trade and the man who had created a \"Cleveland Connection\" with his onetime organization, bringing in former Indians like Sam McDowell, Graig Nettles, Duke Sims, and Walt \"No-Neck\" Williams over the last two years. Paul maintained that the deal conformed to his general philosophy on making trades. \"The way to evaluate a deal is to sit down and look at your club before a deal, and then look at it after a deal,\" Paul explained to The Sporting News. \"If the club looks better after the deal, go ahead and make it. I think we\u2019re a better club with Chambliss\u2026\" Paul clearly held a high opinion of Chambliss, whom Yankee pitcher Ken Wright had praised only 10 days earlier by hinting that he would win a batting title. \"I think we got an outstanding first baseman in Chambliss,\" Paul said proudly. \"[He\u2019s] a fellow who could be our first baseman for 10 years.\"\nChambliss didn\u2019t last 10 seasons in Pinstripes, but that was about the only prediction from Paul that proved to be an exaggeration. After flailing away in his first Yankee go-round, hitting only .243 with a mere six home runs in 400 at-bats, Chambliss began to contribute in 1975, hitting .304 and playing an excellent first base. His lack of power (nine home runs) and plate patience (29 walks) remained a concern, but he improved his power output in 1976, accumulating 17 home runs and 96 RBIs and nearly duplicating it in 1977 with 17 home runs and 90 RBIs. All in all, Chambliss solidified the Yankees at first base, which had become a revolving door for one-dimensional players like Mike Hegan (good field, not much hit), Ron Blomberg (good hit, no field, and always injured), and Bill Sudakis (no field, occasional power).\nEven if he did little else (and he did plenty), Chambliss forged himself a piece of pinstriped history in 1976, when the Yankees advanced to the postseason for the first time in 14 seasons. In the fifth and final game of a nip-and-tuck American League Championship Series against the Royals, Chambliss deposited a dramatic home run over the right-field wall, victimizing Kansas City relief ace Mark Littell and sealing a New York pennant for the first time since 1964. Providing a calming influence in a turbulent clubhouse, Chambliss then played a key role in helping the Yankees win the World Series in both 1977 and \u201978. In the 1977 World Series against the Dodgers, Chambliss hit a solid .292 and slugged .500 in helping the Yankees bring some measure of satisfaction to the Bronx\u2014along with the other troubled boroughs of New York City.\nBruce Markusen is the author of eight books on baseball and also writes the Cooperstown Confidential blog for MLB.com.

In their defense, they faced Roy Halladay in game two.\nRobinson Cano 6 for 16, 2B, HR, 3 RBI, BB\nHideki Matsui 7 for 16, HR, BB, SB\nAlex Rodriguez 4 for 15, 2B, HR, 5 RBI, 4 R, BB, HBP\nDerek Jeter 5 for 16, 2B, BB, SB\nJohnny Damon 0 for 13, 4 BB, 3 K\nWil Nieves 0 for 3, K\nRotation: The worst of the four starts was, predictably, Kei Igawa's. While he looked pretty awful, the end result wasn't all that bad (5 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 4 BB, 7 K). Indeed, the Yankees won his game. The other three men turned in quality starts, with Pettitte and Clemens allowing just one run each and Pettitte and Wang both finishing seven innings. Overall, a solid performance against a lineup that contains some dangerous hitters.\nBullpen: Allowed just two runs in 11 2/3 innings, but 15 base runners, and both runs resulted in lead changes.\nLuis Vizcaino pitched three scoreless innings, one hit, no walks. Mike Myers was brought in twice to face a lefty. He retired both to end Blue Jay rallies. The first time he left the bases loaded. The second time he made a great play on a comebacker to turn an inning-ending double play. In total he threw six pitches, four of them strikes, and got three big outs. Mariano Rivera picked up two more saves, one of them a five-out save. He did allow a triple to Troy Glaus in to lead off the ninth in game one, but stranded him on third by striking out the next two batters. Although Joe Torre got fed up when he walked the first batter in the eighth with a 4-1 lead in game three, Bruney retired four of the five batters he faced in the series.\nProctor and Farnsworth again. Proctor allowed eight base runners in 2 2/3 innings including a solo home run by Alex Rios that tied up Monday's game at 4-4. It was Proctor that loaded the bases for Myers in game three. Farnsworth came into a tied game on Tuesday, gave up a leadoff single, made a wild throw to first with the runner standing on the bag, then gave up a double to plate the go-ahead run.\nDefense: Farnsworth's wild throw was the only Yankee error of the series, though their overall play was less spectacular than in the previous series in Tampa.\nConclusion: Torre seems to be sorting out the bullpen and the rotation seems to be getting on its feet in the second half. The offense is spreading things around (Andy Phillips had some big hits, Bobby Abreu drove in the only runs in the finale, and only Damon didn't come through in one way or another). Overall, the team is playing well, though the offense is still a bit underwhelming. An offensive outburst could give the team an emotional breather and allow Vizcaino and Rivera to get some real rest and Edwar Ramirez to get some work (though, regrettably, Ramirez will likely be farmed out on Saturday so that Matt DeSlavo can make a spot start in that day's double header, so I guess it would be too little too late for Edwar for now). Overall, they Yankees are getting the job done, having won their last four series. They've also pulled into third place in the Wild Card race, though they still have a long way to go to catch the Indians.\nWith the Yankees having already taken the series by winning the first three games against the Blue Jays, this afternoon's finale lacked much punch. Indeed, the game itself was rather listless. Bobby Abreu doubled home a pair of runs against Dustin McGowan in the first inning. Chien-Ming Wang retired the first 11 men he faced before Vernon Wells doubled with two outs in the fourth. There was a brief downpour in the third. Otherwise, nothing much happened until the seventh when the Blue Jays broke through with three runs off Wang on a leadoff double by Matt Stairs, an infield single off Wang's shin (he was fine), a fly out that moved both runners up, an RBI groundout, RBI triple by Aaron Hill that shot past Melky Cabrera in the right field gap, and an RBI single by Gregg Zaun. The Yankees went down in order in the seventh and eighth against McGowan and reliever Casey Janssen. Alex Rodriguez lead off the bottom of the ninth with a flair single to right, but Hideki Matsui popped out, Melky grounded out, and Robinson Cano flied out to end the game. 3-2 Jays.\nOther items of note: Wil Nieves caught the day game after night game, so Posada will catch Mussina tomorrow night. The two catchers will likely split Saturday's double header. Melky Cabrera appeared to tweak a stomach muscle while at bat in the middle innings, but stayed in the game and showed no further discomfort.\nMy wife has gotten used to listening to me rant and rave as we watch the Yankees each night. All of my shouting and cursing used to drive her up the wall--she just couldn't understand why I would let something I have no control over get me so upset. She probably still doesn't understand but she's come to accept my neurotic behavior. Last night, I was in good form, gloom and doom from the start. \"Honey, I don't think the Rocket's got it tonight, he's going to get pounded.\" I screamed like Ed Harris in Glengarry Glen Ross when Alex Rodriguez hit into a double play to end the forth inning. You can imagine how bad it got by the time the bullpen--Proctor, Bruney, Villone--were issuing walks late in the game.\nAll this on a night the Yankees won. Imagine how infuriated I would have been if I rooted for the Jays? Toronto left runners on base in each inning but the second and the ninth. They left two on in the third, fifth, sixth and eighth and left the bases loaded in the seventh, and were 1-14 with runners in scoring position (they are 3-30 with runners in scoring position since Monday). This allowed the Yankees to come from behind and beat the Jays for the third straight day. Final score: Yanks 6, Jays 1. It was another rousing win the Yanks who have won six of seven since the break.\nRoger Clemens allowed nine hits and a walk over six innings (Alex Rios had four hits, three against Clemens), but repeatedly worked his way out of trouble. Shawn Marcum threw twelve pitches to Johnny Damon to start the game, but was remarkably efficient after that. He wasn't necessarily dynamic, but he was extremely impressive, changing speeds, throwing strikes. He fell behind Rodriguez 3-0 with runners on the corners in the fourth inning and just one out. He then threw Rodriguez two beautiful change-ups, and got the double-play to get out of the inning.\nScott Proctor was an adventure in the seventh, hitting a batter, giving up a single and walking a man to load the bases. He did retire two men and Mike Myers came in to get the final out of a half-inning that took 25 minutes. The long stretch was just what the Yankees needed to drive Marcum from the game. Derek Jeter and Bobby Abreu singled to start the bottom of the seventh and Rodriguez came to the plate with men on first and third. He drove a fastball over the head of left fielder Reed Johnson, good enough for a double and two RBI (Abreu got a great jump on the ball). That makes 92 Rib-Eye Steaks for Rodriguez on the season. Later in the inning, Andy Phillips singled home two more. Jorge Posada and Robinson Cano added RBI singles in the eighth.\nBruney and Villone each walked a man in the eighth, bringing the tying run to the plate. Mariano Rivera came in and he retired all five men he faced, lowering his season ERA to 3.18. The Red Sox lost to the Royals and the Yanks are seven back, six in the loss column. While I'm still cautiously optimistic about the Yankees chances of making the playoffs, they are now winning games that they had previously been losing.\nSo yo, happy 67th boithday, Joe Torre.\nIt's all about baby steps for the Bombers who go for the sweep this afternoon with Chien-Ming Wang on the hill.\nMr. Splitty for the Split\nHaving taken the first two games of their four game set against the Blue Jays, the Yankees need only split the remaining two to stay on target and win the series. With Roger Clemens and Chien-Ming Wang set to pitch, that's a pretty good spot for them to be in. Clemens, of course, had the one dud start in Tampa, but that came after two outstanding eight-inning gems, so one can expect some bounce back tonight. He'll face 25-year-old Shaun Marcum who is 4-1 with a 3.14 ERA since joining the Jays' rotation in mid-May. Marcum's one bugaboo is that he's a bit homer prone, having surrendered 12 dingers in his 12 starts.\nIn other news, down in Trenton earlier today, Phil Hughes struck out five in four innings while allowing one run on a pair of hits and a pair of walks. He'll make one more rehab start for Scranton on Monday and could rejoin major league club after that. The Yankees also think that Jason Giambi, who is working out in Tampa, could rejoin the team in early August, which, combined with Andy Phillips' solid play at first base, could fill the hole in the Yankee lineup, provided that Joe Torre recognizes that the hole is currently being created by Johnny Damon (.238/.339/.330 and .207/.312/.281 since June 1) not Melky Cabrera (.282/.335/.384 and .333/.382/.453 since June 1) or Phillips (.300/.354/.433 and .375/.419/.500 in July). Of course, if Torre realized that he might have stopped batting Damon leadoff by now seeing as even Robinson Cano has gotten on base more often than Damon since June 1 (Cano since June 1: .288/.333/.474).\nAndy Pettitte and Roy Halladay both entered yesterday's game trying to get on track after a series of ugly outings. After the first inning, it looked like this just wasn't going to be their night. Pettitte threw 25 pitches in the top of the first, allowed a run on a single, a walk, and a Frank Thomas double, and was fortunate to strand runners on second and third. Halladay threw 28 pitches in the bottom of the first starting with a five-pitch walk to Johnny Damon, who moved to third on a pair of groundouts. With two outs, Alex Rodriguez drove Damon home with a single and the Yankees proceeded to load the bases only to strand all three men when Robinson Cano grounded out.\nTo recap, that's 53 pitches, seven base runners, and a 1-1 score after a single frame.\nPettitte threw another 23 pitches in the top of the second, but avoided giving up a run when Reed Johnson's two-out double near the line in left bound into the stands, forcing Royce Clayton, who had singled, to hold up at third. Pettitte then struck out Alex Rios to preserve the 1-1 tie.\nThen everything changed. Halladay retired the Yankees in order in the second. Pettitte did the same to the Blue Jays in the third on just nine pitches, including a three-pitch strikeout of Thomas. Suddenly it was the top of the eighth and the scoreboard still read 1-1.\nHalladay and Pettitte matched each other almost exactly:\nHalladay - 7 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 6 K, 112 pitches\nPettitte - 7 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 7 K, 116 pitches\nWith Pettitte staring down 120 pitches, however, Joe Torre needed to bring in someone else to pitch the eighth. Luis Vizcaino would have been the obvious choice based on recent performance, but he had pitched in each of the last two games and in four of the last five. Scott Proctor pitched two innings on Monday and has allowed eight base runners in his last 2 2/3 innings. Ron Villone's last outing was a blown save. Edwar Ramirez hadn't pitched since before the All-Star break and remains an unknown quantity. Mariano Rivera, having closed each of the last three games and four of the last five, was not a candidate to go two innings. Mike Myers is a specialty guy whom Torre is now refusing to use even for that purpose (more on that below). That left supposed \"eighth-inning guy\" Kyle Farnsworth and Brian Bruney, both of whom were fully rested. Torre chose the wrong guy.\nI doubt there was a Yankee fan watching who didn't assume the Blue Jays would take the lead when they saw Farnsworth taking his warmups in the top of the eighth. Indeed, Frank Thomas led off with a single. Toronto manager John Gibbons pinch-ran with Howie Clark, and Aaron Hill doubled Clark home to give Toronto a 2-1 lead.\nIt was actually a bit more interesting than that. Farnsworth, who made a wild throw to first in the 11th inning of a 1-1 game against the Angels just before the All-Star Break, yanked a pickoff throw past Andy Phillips to send Clark to second base. The best part is that Clark was standing on first base when Farnsworth threw over; he hadn't even taken his lead yet. Curiously, Lyle Overbay then lined out directly to Phillips, who was playing back because he didn't have to hold on Clark, but it was all rendered meaningless by Hill's RBI double.\nThe Yankees staged another two-out rally in the eighth against lefty reliever Scott Downs. Hideki Matsui and Jorge Posada both singled to put the tying run on second base with two outs, but Downs threw Robinson Cano six straight looping curve balls, and Robinson missed badly at the first two and the last to end the inning.\nHaving burned through Farnsworth, Joe Torre then called on Brian Bruney in the ninth. Bruney retired the heart of the Blue Jay order (Alex Rios, Vernon Wells, and Troy Glaus) in order on 11 pitches, seven of them strikes. Here's hoping Joe noticed.\nAndy Phillips, who had the game-winning hit in each of the previous two games, lead off the bottom of the ninth with a single against Jays closer Jeremy Accardo. Torre then pinch-ran for Phillips with Miguel Cairo, and Cairo stole second on a 1-0 count to Melky Cabrera to put the tying run in scoring position. Melky then attempted to bunt Cairo to third (as he should have), but bunted foul for strike two (he had purposely swung through the pitch on which Cairo stole second). Melky then followed that failed bunt attempt with a single through the hole into right field. Larry Bowa sent Cairo home as Alex Rios fired to the plate. Cairo slid to the outside of the plate as Gregg Zaun lept for Rios's throw. As Zaun came down with the ball, he collided with Cairo, who was reaching in for the bag. Having received a hip-check to the head, Cairo was stopped cold and tagged out. Had Cairo headed directly for the plate, he would have been safe easily, but there was no way for him to anticipate that the play would unfold as it did.\nFortunately, Melky moved to second on the play, so, after all of that, the Yankees still had the tying run in scoring position with one out. With a 2-1 count on Johnny Damon, Cabrera stole third as Accardo appeared to have forgotten about him. Accardo then walked Damon and, as Cabrera and Damon danced of third and first respectively, Accardo came set, bent his back knee, and stepped off the rubber, balking home the tying run. Suddenly the Yankees had the winning run on second with one out, but Derek Jeter and Bobby Abreu, who were a combined 0-for-10 in the game, both grounded out to push the game into extra innings.\nCalled in for emergency duty, Luis Vizcaino, despite missing a few miles per hour off his fastball, pitched around a one-out single to send the 2-2 tie to the bottom of the tenth. Casey Janssen, in for Accardo, opened the inning by plunking Alex Rodriguez on the elbow pad with a 0-1 pitch. Janssen then threw a 2-2 pitch to Hideki Matsui in the dirt and Rodriguez alertly moved to second as the ball squirted into fair territory and Zaun stumbled attempting to corral it. Earlier in that at-bat, Matsui missed a game-winning home run by mere feet, pulling a ball about three seats foul into the front row of the upper deck in left. Janssen rallied to strike out Matsui on a bad pitch up in the zone that was such a miss that it fooled Matsui completely. With first base open, the Gibbons then walked Jorge Posada to pitch to Robinson Cano, who had twice failed to deliver the hit that could have made the difference in the game, leaving five men on base in the process. This time, Cano laced Janssen's first pitch into the corner in deep left, plating Rodriguez and winning the game, 3-2 in ten innings.\nIt was a great win for the Yankees, and puts them in a great position as most had assumed that with Kei Igawa starting for the Yankees on Monday and Roy Halladay starting for the Blue Jays last night, the Yankees would lose at least one of those games. The game also comes with a lesson.\nThe Yankees have won 9 of their last 12 games and the last four games they've lost have been started by Scott Kazmir, John Lackey, Johan Santana, and Dan Haren. You really can't complain about that, though it is cause for concern heading into tonight's game against another big name pitcher, Toronto's Roy Halladay. Here's the good news: after a fantastic April (4-0, 2.28 ERA), Halladay's been something of a mess, posting a 6.35 ERA over his last eleven starts and a 6.85 ERA over his last four. The bad news is that it seems a significant part of that has been bad luck. Halladay has allowed 92 hits in his last 66 2/3 innings, which can be traced to his inflated .323 opponents average on balls in play. That cannot, however, be traced to the Toronto defense, which is fifth in the majors at turning balls in play into outs and puts a solid in field quartet behind the groundballing Halladay.\nMore bad news is that Andy Pettitte's recent history is actually worse than Halladay's. He's posted a 6.99 ERA over his last eight starts, a 9.00 mark in his last five, and a whopping 13.14 in his last three. More encouraging signs are that Pettitte fell just one out short of a quality start in Tampa last week, and handled the Blue Jays expertly in a hard-luck loss back in late May when he was undone by poor defense and run support and Aaron Hill's steal of home. Halladay last faced the Yankees in September of last year, leaving the game after 3 1/3 innings with a forearm strain.\nYankee Panky Week 17: Sticks and Stones, and Acidic Tones\nAt the Winter Meetings in 2003 in New Orleans, not long after news broke that Gary Sheffield\u0097then a free agent\u0097would sign with the Yankees, I asked his former manager at the time, Bobby Cox, the kind of player he was, how he would fit in the Yankee clubhouse and most importantly, and how he would get along with Joe Torre.\n\"Joe's gonna love him. He never gave me a problem,\" was Cox's response.\nWhile Sheff was in uniform for the Yankees\u0097for the first two years at least\u0097he was arguably the most important hitter in the lineup. He provided protection for Derek Jeter in the three slot and for Alex Rodriguez or Jason Giambi if he batted fifth, got on base and drove in runs. His right-handed bat gave Torre the option to alternate lefty-righty from one through nine, which he loved. And he had a competitive, angry edge from an everyday player not seen since Paul O'Neill's retirement. He played hurt and he played hard. His teammates respected him.\nThat reputation, at least among his former Yankee teammates, is likely gone.\nWell, whadda ya know?\nThe Yankees won the kind of game last night that they've been losing all year. Kei Igawa was doo doo, getting killed by the long ball (after being ahead in the counts, no less). But he escaped trouble in both the first and second inning, a turn of events that would prove costly for Toronto. Scott Proctor later gave up a game-tying homer, still the Yanks prevailed, thanks to a two-out, two-run single in the seventh by Andy Phillips.\n\"It's a lot of joy to see what he's doing, especially with what he's been through,\" said Jorge Posada, who singled to start the two-out, tie-breaking rally against Josh Towers. \"He's come out here and getting a chance to play, and he's doing everything we ask for. It's a lot of fun to see.\"\n(Tyler Kepner, N.Y.Times)\nHideki Matsui, Robinson Cano and Alex Rodriguez all homered as the Yanks beat the Blue Jays, 6-4. Mariano Rivera gave up a lead-off triple to Troy Glaus in the top of the ninth--Glaus narrowly missed hitting his third dinger of the night--but then struck out The Big Hurt swinging, Lyle Overbay looking, and got Aaron Hill to ground out to third to end it.\nIt was Mo's third save in as many games. The Bombers have won four of the first five games since the break. It's nice to see them playing better but I'm not letting myself get too excited yet. Let's see how they fare tonight against Doc Halladay.\nThe Yankees did what they needed to do by taking three of four from the Devil Rays over the weekend. They'll now need to do the same against the Blue Jays at home this week. The Jays are the toughest opponent the Yankees will face until they head to Cleveland on August 10 and they'll face them seven times prior to that date, adding a three-game set in Toronto to wrap up the cupcake portion of their schedule in the first week of August.\nThe Blue Jays, who have gotten Roy Halladay, Greg Zaun and Reed Johnson back from the DL since the Yankees last saw them in late May, have played well of late. They opened the second half by splitting a four-game set in Boston and concluded the first half by taking four of six from the Indians and A's. That said, the Jays are the definition of a .500 team (a game below in reality, a game above according to Pythagoras), while the Yankees are desperately trying to prove that they're more than that. In that way, this could prove to be a huge series for the Bombers.\nThe Blue Jays hold a 3-1 advantage in the season series entering tonight having beaten Phil Hughes in his major league debut in a rain-shortened one-game series in the Bronx in April and taken two of three in the \"Rod Said 'Ha!'\" series in late May. Of course, the Yankees' starting pitchers in those four games were Hughes in his debut, Matt DeSalvo, Andy Pettitte, and Tyler Clippard, so the Blue Jays have yet to really face the Yankees' best.\nNot that they will tonight either. Kei Igawa takes the mound in his fourth start since returning from the minors. In his first three he's posted a 6.19 ERA while walking nine and allowing three home runs in 16 innings (all three dingers coming in the middle start against the A's). The Yanks will have to outhit whatever Igawa gives them tonight and will look to do so against Josh Towers. Towers' last start (on July 8) was far and away his best of the season as he held the Indians scoreless on three hits and no walks over eight innings. He was nearly as good against the Tigers back on April 15, but otherwise has been more of a five-inning, four-run starter. He won't walk very many, but he'll give up his share of hits and homers. The Yankees have only faced Towers in relief this year, plating a run against him in 2 2/3 innings in their only win over the Jays on the season.\nMan, guess who is playing for the Long Island Ducks of the Independent League these days? Welp, the roster includes Jose Offerman, Ed Yarnall, John Halama, Edgardo Alfonzo, Carl Everett and Pete Rose Jr.\nSeries Wrap: @ Devil Rays\nWith the Yankees needing to win every series for the next month (and, really, beyond), I though I'd start a new feature here that takes a look at the individual performances of each just-completed series. It goes a little something like this:\nOffense The Yankees scored an average of six runs per game against the Devil Rays, which sounds impressive when you consider the fact that the Tigers lead the majors by scoring 5.94 runs per game on the season. However, the Rays allowed an average of 6.17 runs per game over the first half of the season, which means the Yankees' performance was actually close to average. I say close, because the Rays tend to give up a lot more runs on the road, so the Yankees were actually above average for a visitor at Tropicana Field, but it still wasn't as impressive a showing as it might appear at first glance.\nOffensive Studs:\nBobby Abreu: 6 for 16, 2 2B, 2 HR, 8 RBI\nHideki Matsui: 6 for 18, 2 2B, 2 HR\nJorge Posada: 4 for 9, 2 2B, HR, 4 BB, SB\nDerek Jeter: 5 for 18, 2B, 2 HR, SB\nOffensive Duds:\nRobinson Cano: 2 for 12, IBB, RBI\nMelky Cabrera: 3 for 12, 3 K, CS\nKevin Thompson: 1 for 8, 2B, 3 K\nJohnny Damon: 3 for 14, 5 BB, SB, CS\nRotation Two of the four starters turned in bare-minimum quality starts, Chien-Ming Wang doing so while striking out six and walking none, and Mike Mussina doing so by gutting out six innings with bad stuff. Andy Pettitte missed a quality start by one out, leaving with two on and two out in the sixth. Roger Clemens had the only truly poor outing of the series, though it wasn't a total disaster (5 1/3 IP, 5 R). Overall a poor showing by the rotation against a team batting Brendan Harris third.\nBullpen Allowed five runs in 12 innings, but only blew a lead once, that coming in the finale when Ron Villone entered a 4-3 game and gave up a two-run home run.\nMariano Rivera collected two saves and closed a third game with a four-run lead. Altogether, he allowed a pair of singles and struck out four in three innings. Luis Vizcaino was perfect for 2 2/3 innings, striking out three and closing the door for Pettitte in the opener. Brian Bruney finished the sixth for Clemens on Friday, retiring his two batters on nine pitches, six of them strikes.\nKyle Farnsworth pitched three times, allowing two runs on a home run and a pair of doubles. In his three innings, he allowed six base runners and struck out one. Mike Myers and Scott Proctor teamed up to allow a run in their only work of the weekend on Friday. Myers faced two batters, striking out Akinori Iwamura, then allowing a double to Carl Crawford. Crawford is a career .333/.368/.722 hitter against Myers in 19 plate appearances. Proctor came on and, in the process of getting the last two outs, allowed Crawford to steal third, walked two, and gave up a single that plated Crawford. Ron Villone pitched a perfect inning striking out two on Saturday, but undid that good work by blowing a one-run lead on Sunday by surrendering a two-run homer. This after another base runner had been erased on a double play. Vizcaino had to finish his inning as well. Carlos Pe\u00f1a was the terror who hit both home runs against the Yankee pen. Edwar Ramirez was not used.\nDefense The Yankees played fantastic defense all weekend. Their only error was Jorge Posada's catcher's interference in ninth-inning on Sunday. Melky Cabrera, Alex Rodriguez, and Andy Phillips, who made a game-saving play in the finale, earn special mention for their play in the field.\nConclusion The offense needs to build some momentum. The pitching staff needs to shape up. Joe Torre needs to switch Farnsworth and Vizcaino on his bullpen depth chart and give Edwar Ramirez a fair shake.\nJust as they did on Saturday night, the Yankees fell behind 3-0 early yesterday as Mike Mussina showed his usual long-rest rust and spent as much time arguing with home plate umpire C.B. Bucknor as he did actually getting hitters out during the first three innings. Moose locked it down, however, and the Yankees rallied against Edwin Jackson in the fifth to take the lead, hitting for the cycle with a Robinson Cano single, an Andy Phillips triple that was badly misplayed by B.J. Upton in center (payback for Upton robbing him of a 400-foot extra-base hit on Saturday), a Wil Nieves double (his first extra-base hit of the year), and a two-run Derek Jeter home run.\nMussina fought his way through six innings with the help of some great defense, starting with his own, as he snagged a comebacker from the first batter he faced. Later in the first inning, with Carl Crawford on second and Brendan Harris on first, Carlos Pe\u00f1a singled to center to plate Crawford, but Melky Cabrera threw behind Harris to catch him rounding second base too far for the second out. The third inning came to a scoreless close when Hideki Matsui threw out B.J. Upton trying to score from second on a single to left thanks in part to Upton's sore quadriceps and a great swipe tag by Wil Nieves. In the fourth, Carl Crawford ground to Andy Phillips deep at first, and Phillips beat Crawford in a footrace to the bag, colliding dramatically with the Tampa center fielder (thankfully, neither player was injured). The fifth ended on a 4-6-3 double play, and Melky again gunned out a runner at second base in the sixth as he caught Ty Wigginton trying to stretch a single.\nRon Villone came on in the seventh and promptly coughed up the lead by surrendering a two-run homer to Pe\u00f1a, but the Yankees quickly fought back in the eighth. Alex Rodriguez led off with a double to drive reliever Brian Stokes from the game. Hideki Matsui greeted Casey Fossum with a single that put runners on the corners. After Melky struck out, Robinson Cano plated Rodriguez with a sac fly on which Matsui alertly took second. Gary Glover then came on to face Phillips, who singled home Matsui to regain the lead and took second on the throw home. After pinch-hitter Jorge Posada was intentionally walked and Johnny Damon was unintentionally walked, Derek Jeter ground to third baseman Akinori Iwamura, but Iwamura couldn't find the handle on the ball and all hands were safe, with Phillips scoring what proved to be a crucial insurance run.\nI say crucial because Kyle Farnsworth opened the eighth by giving up a ground-rule double to Upton that missed being a home run by all of three feet. Wigginton then singled Upton home to pull the Rays within one. Rays manager Joe Maddon then pinch-ran for Wigginton with Josh Wilson with Dioner Navarro at the plate and one out. Navarro hit a hot shot to the left of Phillips at first, which Phillips snared on a full dive, then clamored to one knee and doubled Wilson off second for what would prove to be not only an inning-ending play, but a game-saving one.\nMariano Rivera wrapped things up with a heart attack ninth that started with a single by Iwamura, followed by catcher's interference as Posada came out of his crouch to try to throw out Iwamura stealing second and tipped Carl Crawford's bat with his glove in mid-swing. That put runners on first and second with no outs in a game the Yankees lead by just one run, but Brendan Harris ground into a 5-5-3 double play and Carlos Pe\u00f1a, who had driven in three of the six Devil Ray runs to that point, popped out to give the Yankees a 7-6 victory.\nSo, while it wasn't a dominating performance, the Yankees did what they needed to do in taking three of four from the Devil Rays. They'll have to play better ball to do the same against Toronto this week, however. Meanwhile, Andy Phillips, who is hitting .302/.362/.453 this season, is the story of the day. Pete Abraham kicks things off.\nChien-Ming Wang allowed three runs in the first inning last night, but quickly adjusted, mixing in more sliders and changeups to hold the Devil Rays to a lone single over the next four innings. Meanwhile, the Yankees chipped away with a run in the third, a Hideki Matsui solo homer in the fourth, and a two-run homer by Bobby Abreu in the fifth to take a 4-3 lead. Wang got into trouble again in the sixth, loading the bases with two outs, but struck out Jonny Gomes to end the inning and his evening. The Yanks tagged on an insurance run in the seventh thanks to some aggressive base running by Johnny Damon, who went from first to third on a single to left and scored on a groundout. That run was crucial, as, after Ron Villone pitched a perfect seventh, Kyle Farnsworth gave up a solo home run to Carlos Pena in the eighth, an inning he escaped only when Jorge Posada gunned out B. J. Upton stealing second. The Yanks got that run back in the top of the ninth, however, again thanks to Damon's legs as Johnny walked, stole second, and scored on a Bobby Abreu double. Incidentally, speed made the first Yankee run happen as well, as, with the bases loaded and one out in the third, Bobby Abreu (there's that man again) hit into what looked like a sure inning-ending double play, but burned up the first-base line to beat the pivot throw as Andy Phillips scored from third. Mariano Rivera shut the door in the ninth, nailing down the 6-4 win and picking up his 425th career save, which moved him past John Franco into third place on the all-time saves list. The other big numbers on the night were Abreu's five RBIs and Chien-Ming Wang's six strikeouts against no walks in six innings.\nToday the Yanks look to wrap up the series by taking three of four, which is exactly what they need to do against teams such as the Devil Rays. The bad news is that Mike Mussina will be working on a whole bunch of rest. The good news is that he only has to be better than 23-year-old Edwin Jackson, who is 1-9 with a 7.23 ERA and a 1.89 WHIP on the season and also hasn't started since July 4, when he gave up 7 runs in five innings against the Red Sox.\nThe Rocket got kicked around in Tampa Bay on Friday, the 13th as the Yankees lost, 6-4. The Bombers made Scott Kazmir work but had little to show for it (The Devil Rays flashed the leather all night along too). Jorge Posada and Hideki Matsui hit back-to-back dingers late, but it wasn't enough. Phillip Hughes had another successful rehab start--Pete Abraham has the latest (Pete also has a nice little Chien-Ming Wang anecdote).\nIn other \"news,\" Jason Giambi, blah, blah, blah, Gary Sheff, fat mouth, blah, blah, blah.\nYanks and Rays play again tonight. Stay cool peoples, it's another scorcher today...\nMove Over Little Dog, 'Cuz The Big Dog's Movin' In\nThe Devil Rays send their young left-handed proto-stud to the mound tonight against the Yankees' old right-handed hoss. It's a pretty keen matchup that we'll look back on if Scott Kazmir ever puts it together. Thus far injuries and walks have kept him from building on the potential he showed in 2005 at the tender age of 21. Last year, Kazmir was significantly better than in '05, but was limited to 24 starts due to reoccurring shoulder problems that ended his season in late August. This year, he's taken all of his turns, but his rate stats are down across the board. His .347 opponents' average on balls in play, which is pure bad luck, isn't helping, but his homer rate is up, his strikeout rate is down, and, most disappointingly, his 4.65 BB/9 has undone all of the progress he had made in that department last year. A significant side effect of that is that he's not going deep into games because of swollen pitch counts. All of which is good news for the Yankees, as is the fact that Roger Clemens has dominated in his last two outings (2 runs on 7 hits and 2 walks in 16 innings), and the fact that the Yankee offense seems to be clicking, following Bobby Abreu's lead as it has all season.\nThe Yanks started the second half right with a 7-3 victory over the Devil Rays in Tampa Bay. Stop the presses, they are a .500 team again. I didn't catch but the last two innings though on the count of I met up with a group of old New York Giant fans up the block (Cait Murphy came and spoke about her new book, Crazy '08, which looks excellent). But I was thrilled to learn that the Bombers caught James Shields on an off-night. Andy Pettitte wasn't great, but he was good enough as Bobby Abreu led the offense. Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Abreu hit back-to-back-to-back dingers in the fourth inning. Sweet.\nJeff Karstens had a re-hab start. Be nice to see him back in the bigs, huh?\nTampa Bay Devil Rays: It's Now or Never Edition\nEntering the second half of the season, the Yankees' record stands at 42-43, a game below .500. With 77 games left to play, they are tied with Toronto in second place in the AL East, 10 games behind Boston, and tied for fifth in the Wild Card race, 8.5 games behind the Indians (who were recently passed in the Central standings by the defending AL Champion Tigers).\nThings look bad, and indeed they are, but 54 of those remaining 77 games will come against teams that currently have equal or worse records than the Yankees themselves. If the Yankees can simply break even in their 23 games against contending teams (say a 12-11 record in their remaining series against the Red Sox, Tigers, Indians, Angels, and Mariners), the fate of their season lies in their ability to take advantage of the cupcake portion of their second half schedule. If they win two of every three games (in other words, just win their series) against those weaker teams, the Yankees will finish the season 90-72. That might not be enough to make the playoffs as the Wild Card-leading Indians are on a 96-win pace, but if they can mix in a few sweeps and a few 3-out-of-4 series wins, they'll be right in the thick of it.\nThat said, it has to start tonight. It's now or never. Any sort of stumble against Tampa, Toronto, Kansas City, Baltimore, or the White Sox will put the final nail in the coffin currently containing the Yankees' season. Exactly half of those 54 games come in 27-game stretch that begins tonight in Tampa Bay. The only time the Yankees have to leave the eastern time zone during that 27-game stretch is for a four-game series in Kansas City in two weeks. If they can't play something in the neighborhood of .700 baseball over those 27 games, that last flickering ember of hope for this season will be extinguished.\nThe good news is that the Yankees ended the first half of the season on a positive note, taking five of seven from the Twins and Angels, a pair of winning teams ahead of them in the standings. What's more, Phil Hughes is on the comeback trail (he'll make a rehab start with double-A Trenton on Friday and, if that goes well, another on Wednesday). Hughes could replace Kei Igawa as the fifth starter by the end of the month, which would give him a couple major league starts before the Yankees hit the tough part of their second-half schedule in mid-August. At this point just about everything has to go right for the Yankees to even sniff the playoffs, but the opportunity exists for that to happen.\nPastime Passings--June 2007\nTwo colorful characters from two different eras departed us during the month of June. Their deaths, along with those of two former major league pitchers who died earlier this spring, highlight this edition of Pastime Passings.\n(Died on June 23 in Phoenix, Arizona; age 38; cause of death currently unknown): One of the game\u2019s most colorful characters of the 1990s, Beck used an overpowering split-fingered fastball and an aggressive approach to pitching in becoming one of the decade\u2019s most effective closers. Originally drafted by the Oakland A\u2019s, Beck was traded to the A\u2019s Bay Area rivals, the San Francisco Giants. In 1991, Beck made his major league debut with the Giants, soon establishing himself as the team\u2019s relief ace. From 1991 to 1997, the hefty right-hander saved 199 games for San Francisco, helping the Giants to a 103-win season in 1993 and a National League West title in 1997. Beck later pitched for the Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox, and San Diego Padres. A hard thrower early in his career, Beck added to his air of intimidation by growing his hair long and sporting a Fu Manchu mustache. Later on, Beck made up for a loss of velocity by perfecting his splitter and his control, aggressively pounding the strike zone with fastballs. Nicknamed \"Shooter\" because of his gunslinging appearance and his love of cowboy boots and country music, the chain-smoking Beck was extremely popular with both fans and teammates. During a 2003 comeback with the Iowa Cubs, the blue-collar Beck lived in his Winnebago, located just outside of the stadium\u2019s outfield fence. Fans regularly visited Beck, who responded by signing autographs and drinking beers with his newfound friends. Beck successfully returned to the major leagues with the Padres in 2004, but encountered problems with substance abuse that led him to take a leave of absence. After struggling with the Padres as a set-up reliever, the team released him in August of that season.\nAfter his playing days, Beck dabbled in the film industry. He took an acting role in the film, Work Week, which is scheduled for release later this year.\n(Died on June 4 in Atlanta, Georgia; age 70): Regarded as one of the finest defensive third basemen of all-time, Boyer emerged as a critical part of a New York Yankees dynasty that won five consecutive American League pennants in the 1960s. Boyer started his career with the Kansas City Athletics, but was routed to the Yankees as the player to be named later in the massive 11-player deal that also sent pitchers Art Ditmar and Bobby Shantz to New York. Boyer\u2019s tenure with the Yankees included two World Championship teams in 1961 and \u201962. Boyer also helped the Yankees advance to the World Series in \u201963 and \u201964. In the latter series, Boyer and his older brother Ken, an All-Star third baseman with the St. Louis Cardinals, each hit home runs in Game Seven. Boyer remained with the Yankees until the winter of 1966, when they traded him to the Atlanta Braves for outfielder-third baseman Bill Robinson and pitcher Chi-Chi Olivo. A right-handed batter who hit 162 home runs during his career, Boyer played with the Braves until 1971, when he clashed with Atlanta management and then left to finish out his professional career in Japan.\nCOMMENTARY: Summers in Cooperstown won\u2019t be quite as colorful as they\u2019ve been. That was one of the first reactions I had when I heard the sad news that Clete Boyer had died at the age of 70 from the effects of a massive stroke. In recent years, the hard-living Boyer had spent his summers in Cooperstown, signing autographs at baseball shops on Main Street or running his Hamburger Hall of Fame restaurant while spinning stories from his days as a player and coach. Boyer became a favorite in particular because of his connection to the Yankees\u2014the team with the strongest following in upstate New York\u2014and because of his down-home but forthright personality.\nBoyer spent his first summer in Cooperstown living in the same building as me, in an apartment just above Mickey\u2019s Place. I often ran into him while coming or going to work. Even if I was running late, Boyer\u2019s yarns usually kept me planted for at least a few moments. Clete liked to talk about his brother Ken, an underrated player whom he felt deserved a place in the Hall of Fame. Always willing to defer to Ken\u2019s superiority as a ballplayer, Clete talked about his older brother with pride and admiration; there was never any jealousy. I picked up the sense that Clete really missed Ken, who lost a battle with cancer at a young age in the early 1980s.\nWhile Clete didn\u2019t like to boast about himself as a player, he did show some pride in his work as a coach and spring training instructor. Boyer often cited his efforts with Wade Boggs, who had been criticized for his defensive play in Boston. After Boggs joined the Yankees, Boyer convinced him to assume a lower defensive stance, as a way of improving his lateral quickness on ground balls. Boyer\u2019s hours of work with Boggs in spring training paid off, resulting in the lone Gold Glove of his Hall of Fame career.\nAnd then there were Clete\u2019s targets. For better or worse, he was honest about those he didn\u2019t like in baseball, particularly Buck Showalter. Boyer worked on Showalter\u2019s staff in the early 1990s, only to be fired by the manager under nebulous circumstances. Considering Showalter disloyal and manipulative, Clete resented Buck\u2014and never hesitated to let anyone know about it. Another target was Casey Stengel, who managed Boyer with the Yankees. During a memorable appearance by Clete at a Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) meeting in Cooperstown, Boyer recalled how Stengel once pinch-hit for him in the first inning of a World Series game. Boyer said most of the Yankees couldn\u2019t stand Stengel, but their dislike of the manager didn\u2019t prevent them from winning.\nStill, Clete had a sense of humor about things. At that same SABR meeting, Clete comically took note of the surroundings. The meeting, held annually in Cooperstown, took place in a funeral home just off of Main Street. As Clete\u2019s eyes rolled, most of us laughed from our seats in the casket room.\nOften dressed in a blue Yankee sweatsuit, Boyer liked to wear leg weights and brag about the condition of his calves. \"Look at these calves,\" Boyer would say calmly but proudly. Those calves served him well during the 1960s, when Boyer established a reputation as one of the two best defensive third basemen in the American League. While most historians consider Brooks Robinson the best defender of his era\u2014and perhaps the most skilled of all-time\u2014Boyer had his supporters who claimed he was just as good. A converted shortstop, Boyer had terrific range at third base, perhaps even better than Brooks. He definitely had the better arm\u2014no one was better at throwing from his knees\u2014a cannonshot that likely would have played well in the outfield. Robinson probably had better hands, along with a cat-like quickness that we saw on full display in the 1970 World Series. Boyer never enjoyed a Series quite like that, which at least partially explains why his reputation for general fielding excellence has usually ranked behind that of Robinson.\nI really can\u2019t say whether Boyer was better than Robinson. I saw Brooks many times throughout the 1970s, but never did see Boyer play. Although I missed out on that part of his career, I\u2019d like to think I made up for it, at least a little bit, by hearing what Clete had to say.\n(Died on May 17 in Mt. Shasta, California; age 87; heart attack): A left-handed pitcher who played for eight teams, Wight was perhaps best known for signing Hall of Famer Joe Morgan as a scout for the Houston Colt .45s and Astros. During his playing career, Wight known for having one of the game\u2019s best pickoff moves; in one game against the New York Yankees, he picked Mickey Mantle off twice. After his retirement, Wight became a longtime scout, first for the Astros and then for 32 years with the Atlanta Braves.\nEdson Bahr\n(Died on April 6 in Seattle, Washington; age 87): One of only seven major leaguers to hail from the Canadian province of Saskatchewan, Bahr pitched in 46 games for the Pittsburgh Pirates during the 1946 and \u201947 seasons. A veteran of World War II, Bahr split his time between starting and relieving after his military service. The right-handed swingman posted a record of 11-11 with an ERA of 3.37 for the Bucs.\nYankee Panky #16: Halfway There\nDepending on your perspective, the All-Star break is a perfect time for the Yankees to regroup and heal, or, based on the offensive eruption that took place last Sunday, the three-day midseason hiatus is a momentum breaker.\nMore than anything, what the break does is offer a chance to reflect on the first half. In the Yankees\u2019 case, most fans would prefer to look forward than ruminate on inconsistent starting pitching, bullpen performances akin to Rick Vaughn\u2019s tryout fresh from the California Penal League, and hitting results from the left-handed chunk of the lineup that made you think they\u2019d be better off turning around and batting righty.\nOn the field, it was literally 45 games of three steps back, two steps forward for the Yankees. Last Friday while subbing for Michael Kay on 1050 here in New York, Don LaGreca hit the nail on the head when he discussed how 53 to 55 wins over the last 77 games may not be enough to lift the Yankees into the playoffs, but few are ready to start preparing the team\u2019s eulogy.\nAs for the coverage in general, the first 85 games featured an ebb and neap between stirring the pot and projecting the panic button. And with that in mind, here are my orders of distinction for the first-half Yankees Media Coverage.\nThere are actually two. The first is Alex Rodriguez\u2019s offensive barrage. There were so many angles to explore, from it happening in an opt-out year to the technical changes made in his swing through his work with new hitting coach Kevin Long. Over the next three months, the continuation of this story \u2014 should he maintain his pace \u2014 will center around his MVP candidacy. Should the Yankees miss the playoffs and he still wins the MVP, expect comparison stories to his 2003 win with the last-place Rangers. Of course, if that happens, the uber-cynics will still say that A-Rod needs to prove himself as a clutch player in October.\nThe second: Roger Clemens\u2019 signing and all the fun that brought, from the hoopla of his 7th-inning stretch introduction to his contract, to whether or not he\u2019d only be with the team every fifth day. With the exception of one outing, he\u2019s pitched well enough to win all his starts. And in typical Clemens fashion, he\u2019s gone 8 innings in each of his last two starts as a sort of middle finger to those who said he\u2019d only be a 6-inning pitcher. (Maybe Andy Pettitte said to him: \u201cRoger, get it straight to Mo. Your chances are better that way. Get into the 8th inning as often as you can.\u201d Sorry. My imagination got the best of me there.)\nBut looking at the numbers, he\u2019s not even a 6-inning pitcher. The consecutive long starts bumped his average to 5 2/3 innings per start. And the 2.9 runs per game he\u2019s been supported with has to leave him with flashbacks of 2006 as an Astro.\nTHE DEAD HORSE AWARD\nFor the story that\u2019s been repeatedly beaten over the past four months: A-Rod\u2019s off-field foibles. I\u2019ll admit, I\u2019m just as guilty for getting caught up in it, since I referenced the coverage his adventures and misadventures in this space and criticized \u201cthe third baseman.\u201d The convergence of events in Toronto: the stripper pictures and the Little League yell to distract the Blue Jays\u2019 third baseman from catching a pop-up were a low point. Following that, the presentation of his wife joining him in Boston for what was presented as a \u201cmake-up\u201d dinner was too much. The headlines were hilarious, though, save for the TORRE TELLS A-ROD TO SHUT UP item being posted out of context. I\u2019m sure Carl Pavano was happy to have someone taking the tabloid heat off him. Wait, is he still on the team?\nWHY WASN\u2019T THIS COVERED UNTIL NOW?\nThe \u201cHoly Crap\u201d stats, to me, are A-Rod\u2019s late-game numbers (7th inning or later): .374 batting average (.542 in the 9th inning, 10 home runs, 25 RBIs, .769 SLG and 1.247 OPS. Aficionados knew this, but only until the past week did this note receive significant air-time.\nWHY HASN\u2019T MORE BEEN MADE OF THIS?\nFor all the discussion of Jason Giambi\u2019s cooperation with the Mitchell Investigation, surprisingly little has been written about the positive effect his absence has on the lineup. And by positive, I mean Melky Cabrera being the everyday center fielder and Johnny Damon as the primary DH, when something on his body isn\u2019t creaking.\nTHE STORY THAT COULD HAVE BEEN A STORY BUT WASN\u2019T...\nYET STILL COULD BE\nJoe Torre\u2019s job security. Maybe he\u2019ll be fired. Maybe he won\u2019t. Maybe Brian Cashman will go first. Maybe they\u2019ll both get sacked in one fell swoop. Maybe Joe Girardi came back to YES so he could be in the on-deck circle for the Yankees\u2019 managerial job if and when something happens to Torre. Maybe that\u2019s why he turned down the Orioles. Maybe Don Mattingly will ascend to the post. Maybe in a fit of 77-year-old craziness, GMS3 would consider recycling Buck Showalter.\nAnd maybe, just maybe, Torre will save his job and guide the Yankees to the playoffs by not using any of his right-handed relievers except for Mariano Rivera, and reserve Mike Myers for special occasions and make Kei Igawa a reliever when Phil Hughes returns (more on this below). Wait, now I sound like Joel Sherman.\nI\u2019m really intrigued by Bruce Markusen\u2019s hypothesis, posted in this space yesterday:\n\u201cOn a more realistic front, I wonder why we don\u2019t hear more talk about O\u2019Neill becoming a manager. (After all, there have been whispers about O\u2019Neill becoming the Reds bench coach in 2008.) Fiery and intelligent, O\u2019Neill was often mentioned as a future managerial candidate at the tail end of his playing career. I know that O\u2019Neill is concerned about spending large chunks of time away from his young children, but perhaps he\u2019ll take a page out of Don Mattingly\u2019s book and begin to pursue a coaching career once his children get older. O\u2019Neill could become a curious cross between Billy Martin and Lou Piniella, and wouldn\u2019t that be an interesting kind of manager for Yankee fans to follow after the sedate tenure of Joe Torre?\u201d\nTHE \u201cGET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT\u201d AWARD\nTo the Post and Daily News, for their coverage of the Steve Swindal fallout. The two tabloids are so combative with each other it\u2019s comical. There were myriad projections of who would succeed Swindal as George Steinbrenner\u2019s heir to the Yankees, Bill Madden of the News reported that it would be Hal the Younger to rise, while the Post\u2019s George King refuted the story a few days later. As it stands now, according to the bevy of reports, it\u2019s still a toss-up between the Steinbrenner brothers and the other son-in-law, Felipe Lopez.\nI thought this story was interesting not only for all the Godfather parallels, but because when it comes to stories on the inner workings of the team, particularly Steinbrenner issues, Madden has a history of being accurate. I found his premise credible. Similarly, I know how George King hustles for information, and his rebuttal was just as strong.\nTHE \u201cTHIS WILL ONLY BE A STORY FOR ANOTHER FEW WEEKS\u201d AWARD\nTo the prospect of trades Brian Cashman may or may not make prior to the July 31 non-waiver deadline, and between August 1 and August 31 before the waiver deadline approaches. Tyler Kepner\u2019s look into Cashman\u2019s plans included a cryptic quote: ''Last year's team earned the right to get reinforcements. This year's team's got to still earn that right. Last year's team showed it was a championship-type situation, fighting through a lot.''\nTHE STORY TO WATCH IN THE SECOND HALF\nPhil Hughes\u2019 return and its effect on the pitching staff. A rotation of Wang, Pettitte, Mussina, Clemens and Hughes gives the Yankees the possibility of putting together several extended win streaks, provided the offense cooperates. That makes Kei Igawa a Hideki Okajima-type option (because he can pitch to righties \u2014 Torre loves that), leaving Myers to return to the role he was originally assigned: matchup lefty.\nTHE STORY TO WATCH IN THE SECOND HALF: PART 2\nShould the Yankees continue to plod along the path to mediocrity and not take the fork in the road, per Yogi's instructions, how long will it be before the local and national media pull the plug on the season?\nI\u2019ll save a fuller list of favorites, best and worsts, and strange occurrences throughout the media landscape as they pertain to Yankees coverage, in my season-ending recap.\nHotter N July\nDude, it is hot in New York. Dog Day Afternoon/Do The Right Thing Hot. Hey, anyone stay up and watch The Bronx is Burning? The Home Run Derby put me to sleep. I did wake up to catch a few minutes of the mini-series and thought it was a mess. But I only saw a few minutes. Was it any good?\nMeanwhile, links: Pete Abraham on Phillip Hughes; Jack Curry on Alex Rodriguez; SG on the Bombers' offense at the break; John Helyar on George Steinbrenner, and, finally, Steven Goldman caught up with Dr. Bobby Brown and Rick Cerrone last weekend at Old Timer's Day. Check it out. The bit with Cerrone is especially good.\nObservations From Cooperstown--Old-Timers Day\nI\u2019ll never get tired of Old-Timers Day. In fact, as I work my way into my early forties, I only appreciate this wondrous day more and more. It boggles the mind that the Yankees are the last team to hold the fort on Old-Timers Day\u2014of the 30 clubs, they\u2019re the only team that bothers to stage this event any more\u2014but that\u2019s a subject for another day. Rather than focus on what other teams are losing out on\u2014hey, it\u2019s their loss, not the loss of Yankee fans\u2014let\u2019s take a look at some of the more memorable moments from the latest gathering of legends at Yankee Stadium.\n*I was amazed at the loudness of the ovation for Scott Brosius, who was one of several former Yankees participating in his first Old-Timers Day at the Stadium. Although mostly a journeyman player during his big league career, Brosius enjoyed a career year in pinstripes in 1998 and then hit that nail-in-the-coffin home run against Trevor Hoffman in the World Series. Those accomplishments, coupled with the relative recentness of Brosius\u2019 time in New York, have made him one of the most popular of the ex-Yankees. (Imagine if Brosius had played for the Yankees in the 1980s; he likely wouldn\u2019t even be invited to Old-Timers Day.) I guess Brosius\u2019 cult status shouldn\u2019t come as that surprising given how many fans lament for the hard-nosed players of the recent dynasty. The three names that fans always mention are Paul \"The Warrior\" O\u2019Neill, Tino Martinez, and\u2014of course, Scott Brosius.\n*Other than Brosius, several former Yankees made their inaugural appearances at Old-Timers Day. O\u2019Neill, the recipient of some loud chanting at the Stadium on Saturday, was the most prominent. Even into his sixth year of retirement, he looks to be in the same kind of playing shape today and rifled a line drive single into right-enter field. (Former Yankee GM Gene Michael says O\u2019Neill retired way too early, giving up three our four more potentially productive seasons.) Given the struggles of the every-passive Bobby Abreu, maybe the Yankees should give O\u2019Neill an audition. Well, let\u2019s not get that desperate\u2026 On a more realistic front, I wonder why we don\u2019t hear more talk about O\u2019Neill becoming a manager. (After all, there have been whispers about O\u2019Neill becoming the Reds bench coach in 2008.) Fiery and intelligent, O\u2019Neill was often mentioned as a future managerial candidate at the tail end of his playing career. I know that O\u2019Neill is concerned about spending large chunks of time away from his young children, but perhaps he\u2019ll take a page out of Don Mattingly\u2019s book and begin to pursue a coaching career once his children get older. O\u2019Neill could become a curious cross between Billy Martin and Lou Piniella, and wouldn\u2019t that be an interesting kind of manager for Yankee fans to follow after the sedate tenure of Joe Torre?\n*A couple of Yankees from the lean years also made their Old-Timers debuts. Ken Griffey, Sr. and Jesse Barfield reappeared in Yankee pinstripes for the first time in years. I have to admit that I never much cared for the senior Griffey as a Yankee; he was a chronic complainer who showed a reluctance to try to steal bases and who bristled when the team tried to move him to first base. On one occasion, Griffey failed to show up for a game (a cardinal sin for a professional athlete), only contacting the team at a very late hour to provide a reason for his absence. I find his return to the Stadium curious; could it be an omen that Griffey, Jr. is on his way to the Bronx? As for Barfield, I have a much softer spot for the former right fielder. Though he played for some of the worst Yankee teams in the early 1990s, Barfield always played hard, displayed one of the greatest arms in recent right field history, and gave the Yankees some decent production before giving way to Danny Tartabull. Barfield also carried himself like a classy gentleman, which is one reason why I root for his son, Indians second baseman Josh Barfield.\n*As the Yankees always do, the organization remembered former players who have passed away within the last 12 months. The list of names read by Bob Sheppard included Cory Lidle, Hank Bauer, and Clete Boyer, along with onetime Yankees Steve Barber, Lew Burdette, Johnny Callison, Pat Dobson, Pete Mikkelsen, and Joe Niekro, and former Yankee pitching coach Art Fowler. I knew Boyer fairly well from recent summers, in which he lived in Cooperstown and often signed autographs up and down Main Street. I also remember Barber, Callison, Dobson and Niekro from my early days growing up with baseball, yet another sign that I\u2019m treading toward middle age.\n*The theme of this year\u2019s Old-Timers Day centered on the 30th anniversary of the 1977 World Championship team. That\u2019s a summer that I remember vividly. I was 12 years old, still in grade school, and savoring what would be the first Yankee World Championship of my lifetime. Sixteen members of that team attended Saturday\u2019s reunion. Also, in a nice touch, close relatives of four deceased members of that club (captain Thurman Munson, Hall of Fame right-hander Jim \"Catfish\" Hunter, coach Elston Howard, and manager Billy Martin) were introduced to the crowd. That left roughly ten prominent players from the \u201977 squad who did not show for a variety of reasons. Several of the \u201977 Yankees are managers at either the major league level (Lou Piniella and Willie Randolph), in the minor leagues (Sparky Lyle), or in the new Israel Baseball League (Ken Holtzman), thereby making them unavailable for Saturday\u2019s ceremonies. With those exceptions, that left Roy White, Carlos May, Fred \"Chicken\" Stanley, Fran Healy, Don Gullett, and Dick \"Dirt\" Tidrow as no-shows. Stanley and Tidrow both work as executives with other clubs, so perhaps that created a conflict. Healy has disassociated himself from the Yankees since working for them as a radio broadcaster in the early 1980s. As for White, May, and Gullett, I\u2019m not sure of the reasons behind their absences. White was fired by the Yankees after his last coaching stint, so perhaps that was a factor, while the whereabouts of Gullett and May remain unknown to me.\n*Perhaps the most surprising attendee among the \u201977 Yankees was Mickey Klutts, a onetime highly regarded prospect who flopped in the major leagues. Klutts (man, we had fun with that name back in the seventies) appeared in all of five games in 1977, coming to bat 15 times, but was still included in the \u201877 contingent. (Klutts actually had fewer at-bats than 1977 late arrival Dave Kingman, who has about as much association with the Yankees today as Ken Phelps.) It makes you wonder if Dave Bergman, Gene Locklear, and Marty Perez received invites to the reunion.\n*The No 1 highlight of this year\u2019s Old-Timers gathering may have been the appearance of Bobby Murcer. Given some of the grave reports surrounding Murcer\u2019s battle with cancer this past winter, I wondered whether we\u2019d see Murcer on Old-Timers Saturday. Not only did Murcer appear, but also he wore a uniform, sported a microphone for the YES Network, played in the actual game, and delivered a hard-hit line drive that was caught in right field. Though his uniform looked a bit baggy because of his recent weight loss, Murcer moved well for someone battling the effects of brain cancer. His hair has also started to grow back after recent chemotherapy treatments. And just as importantly, Murcer has lost none of the self-deprecating humor that makes him one of the most beloved of all the retired Yankees. Simply put, Bobby Murcer is one of the best justifications for having something like Old-Timers Day in the first place.\nLet\u2019s just hope the Yankees remain the last holdouts among major league teams and never do away with this gathering of nostalgia and remembrance known as Old-Timers Day.\nHideki Matsui, Robinson Cano and Alex Rodriguez each hit three-run homers on Sunday as the Yanks bounced back from a tough loss on Saturday by pounding the Angels 12-0. Chien-Ming Wang earned his 9th win of the season while Rodriguez added 4 RBI, giving him 86, with 30 homers and 79 runs scored. Yup, he leads the majors in all three categories. His home run yesterday moved Rodriguez passed Lou Gehrig on the all-time list. The Bombers finish the first half of the season one game under .500.\nBunch of links for you. Dig:\nTim Marchman doesn't think the Yanks will have a fire sale this summer; Tyler Kepner takes a look at some of the Yankees' pitching prospects; Richard Sandomir reviews The Bronx is Burning; Reggie Jackson is none too thrilled about ESPN's mini-series; Joe Posnanski weighs in on Derek Jeter's fielding, and SG examines how the pitching staff did in the first half of the season.\nSloppy Split\nThe Yankees and Angels played and ugly, sloppy game on Friday night that saw two runs score on errors, another called back when Robinson Cano missed the bag rounding third, and several other poor plays (such as missed cutoff men and third outs made at third base) on both sides of the ball and both sides of the field.\nThe pitching was pretty crappy as well. Bartolo Colon, who was bounced with two on and none out in the third, allowed seven runs (including both bequeathed runners, who scored on Darren Oliver's watch). Andy Pettitte made it into the sixth, but left with none out and a man on and was charged with eight runs on the night, including that bequeathed runner, who scored with Edwar Ramirez on the mound.\nRamirez allowed an additional run of his own in the sixth to run the score to 9-9. The Yanks broke that tie in the seventh when Johnny Damon drew a leadoff walk from Chris Bootcheck, stole second, moved to third on a Melky Cabrera single, and scored when Gary Matthews bobbled Melky's hit in center. Alex Rodriguez then laced a line-drive homer to the seats in left that put the Yankees up 12-9. Remarkably, Ramirez, Scott Proctor and Ron Villone managed to shut the door at that point, while the Yankees plated two more in the eighth against Dustin Moseley to put the final score at 14-9. Ramirez earned his first major league win despite retiring just two of the seven batters he faced against their will (one of them sacrificed).\nYesterday, following a joyous Old Timer's Game that saw Paul O'Neill and Scott Brosius lace hard singles in their first Old Timer's action, and Bobby Murcer make a triumphant return to the field with a hard line out, the Yankees played a game that was very much the opposite of Friday night's circus, but was also decided by sloppy play and poor decisions. Coming off his dominant two-hit performance against the Twins, Roger Clemens held the Angels to one run on five hits and a walk over eight efficient innings (98 pitches). Angels' ace John Lackey matched Clemens almost exactly (one run on five hits and a hit batsman over eight innings), but upped the ante by striking out eleven Yankees (including Melky Cabrera four times) and throwing 72 percent of his 107 pitches for strikes.\nThe Yankees got their one run in the bottom of the second on doubles by Hideki Matsui and Bobby Abreu. The Angels got theirs in the top of the third on a leadoff double by Garret Anderson and a pair of productive groundouts. With the game still tied 1-1 in the ninth, both managers turned to their bullpens, doing so exactly as they should. Mike Scioscia got three scoreless innings from his set-up ace Scot Shields, then turned to his closer in a still-tied game on the road. Joe Torre worked his bullpen backwards as he should have, starting with a pair of shutout innings from Mariano Rivera, then a scoreless frame from Kyle Farnsworth, then turning to the fully rested Luis Vizcaino rather than Scott Proctor, who had thrown 21 pitches on Friday.\nVizcaino pitched around a two-out single in the twelfth, volleying back to Francisco Rodriguez, who stranded Hideki Matsui at second base following a one-out walk and a surprising stolen base by striking out Jorge Posada and getting Bobby Abreu to ground out. In for his second inning of work, Vizcaino gave up a leadoff double to Howie Kendrick, who had been making highlight reel plays at second base all day long (mostly on balls hit by Miguel Cairo). Jose Molina then attempted to bunt Kendrick over to third, but fouled off the first attempt, then missed the second, taking off the play. After ball one and a trio of fouls, Molina grounded to the left of Miguel Cairo, who was again starting at first base in place of the stiff-necked Andy Phillips. Cairo fell to his left and smothered the ball, but bobbled it as he came to his feet, then, perhaps forgetting that a Molina was running, made a desperation throw that sailed behind Vizcaino who was covering the bag. Cairo's throw sent Molina to second and allowed Kendrick to score the tie-breaking run. Cairo was charged with two errors on the play, giving him four at first base in two games (on Friday night he made a nearly identical play throwing behind Pettitte covering first and allowing a run to score, he also flubbed a ball in the tenth inning of yesterday's game) and pushing the Yankees' total to five on the day (Kyle Farnsworth threw wild to first base in the 11th, and Hideki Matsui booted a single in the fourth to putt the batter on second). Vizcaino retired the next three men in order, but the damage had been done.\nThe Yankees staged a rally in the bottom of the 13th. Cairo, attempting to atone for his errors, singled with one out, stole second, then moved to third on a ball that Rodriguez threw clean over Molina's head to the backstop. Suddenly the Yankees were a productive out away from re-tying the game.\nIn the third inning of Friday night's mess, with one out, the Yankees up 6-3, and runners on the corners, Joe Torre called for a suicide squeeze, which was perfectly executed by Miguel Cairo with Jorge Posada charging from third base. Now, with Cairo on third and Johnny Damon at the plate, Damon stood tall as Francisco Rodriguez threw three more balls, resulting in the same set up (runners on the corners, one out) in a sudden-death situation (extra-innings, down by one). Unlike the meaningless squeeze on Friday, a squeeze bunt here would have tied a game that otherwise could have been lost on a single double-play grounder. The man at the plate was Melky Cabrera, who already had five successful sacrifice bunts on the season. In addition to the squeeze, having Damon, who had stolen two bases on Friday night, steal second on Rodriguez (who had already allowed a steal to Hideki Matsui of all people) would have eliminated the double play and could have resulted in either a delayed double steal or a throwing error that would have gotten Cairo home without any help from the batter.\nI probably don't need to tell you what happened, or rather, what didn't. No steal. No bunt. Melky struck out for the fifth time in the game, and Derek Jeter, who had hit into an inning-ending double play in the eleventh, grounded into a fielder's choice to give the Angels a 2-1 win in 13 innings.\nI've lost track of the number of times Joe Torre has failed to employ the squeeze bunt when a successful one would either tie or win a game, but I can approximate that number by saying it's every time. According to Baseball Prospectus 2007, Joe Torre did not call for a single squeeze from 2004 to 2006 and he sure as hell didn't call for one in the 11th inning of Game 4 of the 2003 World Series. In a lineup that includes Damon, Cabrera, Jeter, Abreu, Cano, and Cairo, all of whom will lay one down from time to time, be they bunting for a hit or, in the case of Cabrera, Cairo, and, stupidly, Jeter, sacrificing, the squeeze bunt should come in to play regularly in sudden-death situations. Instead it never does, and the Yankees are 6-14 in one-run games.\nToday they try to win the rubber game behind Chien-Ming Wang who threw seven scoreless innings against the Twins in his last outing. The Angels counter with Ervin Santana, who has a 6.88 ERA over his last three starts, though he did strike out 11 Rangers in his last outing.\nOnly one team in baseball has won more games than the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, that being the Boston Red Sox. This is not the happiest of seasons to be a Yankee fan, to say the least. The Angels swept the Yankees in Anaheim back at the end of May winning one high-scoring affair and two close, low-scoring games.\nThe upside for the Yankees this weekend, beyond Old Timer's Day, is that they miss two of the Halos' top three starters (Weaver and Escobar) and that they're coming into the series on a relative high having done what they needed to do against the Twins, taking the three games not started by Johan Santana to finish their season series with Minnesota with a 5-2 record. Meanwhile, the Angels come in on something of a slide having dropped six of nine to the pitiful Royals, Orioles, and Rangers, the first of those having swept them in Angel Stadium.\nAdding to the good news, tonight the Yankees get a crack at a favorite wipping boy in Bartolo Colon (career 5.32 ERA against New York). Colon is ripe for the picking having struggled with injuries all year and having posted a 7.91 ERA over his last seven starts, allowing eleven home runs along the way. Alex Rodriguez, who is a career .440/.460/1.133 hitter against Colon with a whopping eight home runs in 45 at-bats, will return to the lineup at third base looking to use that matchup to break out of a small 0 for 15 slump. Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada, Hideki Matsui, and Robinson Cano all have OPSs over 1.000 against Colon, and Johnny Damon (starting in left field tonight with Matsui at DH) falls just short of that mark.\nOn the flip side, the Angels' hitters have pretty good numbers against Andy Pettitte as well, but only Garret Anderson and Gary Matthews Jr. have more than ten at-bats against him and only two others have ever faced him. Andy's looking to rebound from his disaster outing his last time out.\nThe Yankees had a nice, only intermittently terrifying 7-6 win over the Twins this afternoon. The good news: they flashed some long-overdue power, and though A-Rod (0 for his last 19) sat this one out, his MRI came back normal. The bad news: Kei Igawa.\nIgawa walked the first batter he faced and then allowed three straight soft singles (though Cuddyer was hung up between 1st and 2nd on one of those), a strikeout, a bungled play near the mound that became an awkward pop-up single, and another strikeout; when the smoke cleared it was 2-0 Twins. It's rare to get significant booing at Yankee Stadium in the top of the first inning like that -- people are still filing in and buying hot dogs and whatnot -- but Igawa's got the knack for it.\nThose first-inning hits were pretty weak, so you could try to chalk them up to bad luck if you were so inclined... except that later in the game he would go on to enjoy much better luck, and pitch even worse. During the in-game comments, someone asked what kind of pitches Igawa was throwing, and the truth is I could barely tell. You\u2019d probably need to get a forensics team in there to be sure: \u201cWell, based on this partial thumbprint, it appears this was meant to be a curveball\u2026 but it\u2019s difficult to be sure, as the ball has suffered severe blunt trauma.\u201d\nThe Yanks broke through for five runs off Kevin Slowey in the second, all with two outs...\n[Off the top of my head and in no particular order, the worst pitcher names* ever:\nAnd, of course, the immortal Bob Walk.\nBest non-pitcher name that I discovered by accident while looking up Pete Walker\u2019s stats: Welday Wilberforce Walker.]\n...Anyway! In that second inning, Robinson Cano homered, his fifth of the year; Andy Phillips and Miguel \u201cMig-Rod\u201d Cairo hit back to back doubles to tie the game; Damon walked; and Melky Cabrera followed with a solid three-run shot to center, giving the Yanks a 5-2 lead. Melky\u2019s been on fire recently, and his stats are beginning to come around to respectable levels, though after his molasses-slow start he still has a ways to go. Asked about Cabrera after the game, longtime friend, fellow home run-hitter, and carpooler Robinson Cano said, \u201cwe\u2019re going to be making some jokes in the car.\u201d\nIgawa had a quick second inning and a passable third, but came undone again in the fourth. After a double and two quick outs (thanks to nice plays on line drives by Jeter and, believe it or not, Johnny Damon in center), Igawa walked tiny (but lovable!) .202 hitter Nick Punto, then got what he deserved: a two-run double, a single, and a tie game. Igawa recovered and made it through the fifth, but not before making thousands of viewers reflect with nostalgia on Tyler Clippard.\nThe Yanks then got scoreless relief from Luis Vizcaino, Scott Proctor, and Kyle Farnsworth\u2026 I feel this moment should be commemorated with some sort of plaque or official proclamation. But moving on. In the bottom of the 8th, the Twins brought in effectively twitchy submariner Pat Neshek, my choice for the final AL All-Star Vote (and I certainly wasn\u2019t alone). With two out and Jeter on first, Matsui broke the 5-5 tie with a massive shot to right-center, and I may be wrong about this, but it seems like even though Matsui only has 10 homers this year, a lot of those have really been crushed. Rough day all around for Neshek, who also lost the 32nd All-Star vote to Hideki Okajima... but I still want a \"Pitch in for Pat\" t-shirt.\nSo it was 7-5 Yankees going into the ninth, but Mariano Rivera, thoughtful guy that he is, didn\u2019t want fans to get bored. So decided to heighten the excitement by allowing two consecutive singles (though the second should probably have been called an error on Jeter, on a DP ball no less). He then settled down and, after a tense moment with one out, runners and second and third, and Joe Mauer at the plate, induced an RBI groundout; finally, Michael Cuddyer was called out on a somewhat questionable checked swing strikeout, ending the threat and the game. That moves Mo into a tie for third on the all-time saves list with John Franco (really? I always liked John Franco, but third all-time?). After the game, Rivera said he was thrilled with the personal milestone and determined to reach second place, and that this was just as important to him as the Yankees' record--... oh, just kidding:\n\"The most important thing is that we won the game,\" he said. \" ... It's not about me.\"\n* \u201cWhat\u2019s the pitcher\u2019s name?\u201d \u201cWhat\u2019s on second!\u201d Sorry, had to get that out.\n...by a thread...\nThe Yanks played well enough to lose on the 4th of July. When Johan Santana is the opposing pitcher, you know it is going to be a tough day, regardless. But the Yanks let the game get away from them late and fell to the Twins, 6-2. Still, the Bombers have a chance to win the series with a victory this afternoon and I've got a hunch that Kei Igawa will pitch well. Alex Rodriguez, who is 0-for-his-last-19, is not in the starting line-up.\nCard Corner--Sparky\nSparky Lyle\u2014Topps Company\u20141979 (No. 365)\nEven if he never throws a pitch again, Mariano Rivera will retain the legacy of being the greatest closer, or relief ace, in Yankee history. Rich \"Goose\" Gossage, likely to be enshrined in Cooperstown in 2008, would probably come in second on the lists of most fans and media members. Yet, somehow forgotten in the argument of great Yankee relievers is a pitcher who was a contemporary of Gossage in the 1970s and early 1980s. Albert \"Sparky\" Lyle (pictured here in his 1979 Topps card, his final as a Yankee) might not have been Mariano Rivera, but from 1972 to 1977, he was pretty much lock-down untouchable in the seventh, eighth, and ninth innings of many Yankee victories. He was also one of the most colorful characters to ever wear Yankee pinstripes.\nAs a youngster, Lyle earned the nickname \"Sparky\" from his father, who took note of his seemingly unending level of energy. His left arm had plenty of life, too, and drew interest from the Baltimore Orioles, who signed him to his first professional contract in 1964. When the Orioles left him unprotected, the Red Sox drafted him after the season and converted him to relief. It was the perfect place for the inexhaustible youngster, who could better channel his energies pitching frequently out of the bullpen rather than once every fourth day as a starter.\nIn 1965, Lyle did something he would come to regret. He faked an injury and spent 15 needless days on the disabled list. Fortunately, he also met Ted Williams that spring. The Red Sox\u2019 legend encouraged Lyle to learn how to throw a slider, a pitch that had always given the \"Splendid Splinter\" some difficulty. The slider would become Lyle\u2019s trademark on the mound.\nAlthough Lyle enjoyed some success with the Red Sox, his career began to fully blossom with the famed 1972 trade that sent him to the archrival New York Yankees for first baseman Danny Cater and a player to be named later (the immortal Mario Guerrero). It was 35 years ago that the Yankees pulled off that heist; it remains one of the primary reasons the Yankees and Red Sox no longer do business on the trade front.\nDuring his Yankee years, Lyle also emerged as one of the game\u2019s leading pranksters. Lyle compiled an impressive list of practical jokes for his resume, including the following highlights:\n*During one of the team\u2019s charter flights, Lyle quietly approached Yankee broadcaster Phil Rizzuto, who was not only sleeping but was known for being particularly squeamish when it came to anything like lightning, snakes, or figures from the world of horror. When Rizzuto woke a few minutes later, he was greeted by the angry countenance of \"The Wolfman.\" Donning the mask of the famed Universal Studios monster, Lyle had succeeded in giving the nervous Rizzuto one of his most frightening mid-air moments.\n*In one of his most memorable stunts, Lyle once procured the waterbed that belonged to teammate and fellow left-hander Mike Kekich (also a notable flake: see wifeswapping). Lyle then hung it from the scoreboard at Milwaukee\u2019s County Stadium, displaying it during a game for fans\u2014and his Yankee teammates, including Kekich\u2014to appreciate as it dangled in the wind.\n*Lyle arranged to have a casket delivered to the team clubhouse at Yankee Stadium. As manager Bill Virdon prepared to address his players in a team meeting, the casket creaked open. Emerging from inside the casket was Lyle, who slowly sat upright and then delivered his best Bela Lugosi imitation while cryptically mouthing the words, \"How do you pitch to Brooks Robinson?\"\n*Of all the Lyle pranks, his trademark stunt became his \"treatment\" of birthday cakes that arrived at Yankee Stadium. When a player celebrated a birthday during the season, the Yankees typically arranged to have a large birthday cake delivered to the clubhouse. As soon as Lyle got wind of the cake\u2019s impending arrival, he prepared to take action. Waiting in the clubhouse until the cake was placed on a table, Lyle then pulled down his pants (including his underwear), jumped up in the air, and proceeded to sit on top of the cake! With another cake effectively buried, yet another Yankee teammate was frustrated in his effort to celebrate his birthday. (Former Yankee outfielder Ron Swoboda once exacted the ultimate revenge on Lyle, doing something unmentionable to one of his birthday cakes.)\nIn spite of his continued ruination of birthday cakes, Lyle remained a popular player in the Yankee clubhouse. While several personalities on the Yankees clashed with each other, Lyle remained outside of the fray. Later in his career, he joined the Texas Rangers, where he fit in well in a clubhouse that featured an array of offbeat characters, including Oscar \"The Big O\" Gamble, Jim \"Emu\" Kern, and the ultimate hot dog, Willie Montanez.\nEquipped with his own humorous perspective, Lyle became a natural candidate to collaborate on a book about the Yankees\u2019 tumultuous seasons of 1977 and \u201978. Lyle\u2019s The Bronx Zoo became one of the best-selling sports books of the decade. In 1990, Lyle moved into the realm of fiction, collaborating on a novel that featured the intriguing title, The Year I Owned the Yankees.\nGiven his bent toward practical jokes and the lighter side of sports, it might come as surprising that Lyle has become a successful manager in the minor leagues. As the skipper of the independent Somerset Patriots, Lyle has led the team to three Atlantic League titles\u2014in 2001, 2003, and 2005. If he continues to follow that pattern, Lyle will add a fourth league title to his resume in 2007.\nBruce Markusen is the author of eight books, including the award-winning A Baseball Dynasty: Charlie Finley\u2019s Swingin\u2019 A\u2019s, the recipient of the Seymour Medal from the Society for American Baseball Research. He has also written The Team That Changed Baseball: Roberto Clemente and the 1971 Pittsburgh Pirates, Tales From The Mets Dugout, and The Orlando Cepeda Story.\nBruce, his wife Sue, and their daughter Madeline reside in Cooperstown, NY, a stone\u2019s throw from the Hall of Fame.\nWho are these guys and what have they done with the 2007 New York Yankees?\nThe Yankees jumped out to an early 1-0 lead last night when Johnny Damon and Melky Cabrera singled and Damon scored on a groundout. Chein-Ming Wang made that hold up by limiting the Twins to a double through the first three innings. In the fourth he ran into some trouble, walking the first three men and giving up a single to Justin Morneau, but he escaped with the lead because the first walk was erased when Jorge Posada caught Jason Bartlett stealing, and Torii Hunter followed Morneau's bases-loading single by grounding into a double play. Wang got another DP following a leadoff single in the fifth. By then his lead had swelled to 3-0 thanks to a two-run Robinson Cano home run in the previous frame. Wang pitched out of trouble again in the sixth and then the Yankees went to town dropping a five-spot on Carlos Silva and Juan Rincon in the bottom of the inning.\nThe onslaught started when Jorge Posada hit a single to center that bounced past Torii Hunter allowing Posada to head to third as the Yankee dugout erupted in laughter as the sight of their 35-year-old catcher running out a would-be triple. Posada actually had two triples last year, but had gone three years without one before that (and remains without one this year as the hit was scored a single and a two-base error). Posada scored on a wild pitch, but the bases didn't remain empty for long as Hideki Matsui doubled and Bobby Abreu, in the midst of another three-hit night, singled him home. Andy Phillips then flew out to the warning track in left driving Silva from the game. Abreu greeted Rincon by stealing second. Rincon reacted by hitting Cano in the foot. Johnny Damon moved the runners over with a groundout, and Melky Cabrera drove them home with a single, moving to second on the throw home, which Cano avoided by sliding outside of home plate and sticking his left hand in between Joe Mauer's leg and tag. Derek Jeter then singled home Melky to complete the scoring.\nWang, Scott Proctor, and rookie Edwar Ramirez each pitched a scoreless frame to wrap things up, Ramirez dazzling by striking out the heart of the Twins' order on 14 pitches in his major league debut. Ramirez is exactly as advertised. His uniform hangs on his skinny frame, but he throws 90-mile-per-hour fastballs mixed with sliders then puts hitters away with a changeup in the high-70s that just falls off a table when it reaches the plate. Michael Cuddyer, Justin Morneau, and Lew Ford (hitting for Torii Hunter who was ejected in the eight for jawing at home plate umpire Ron Kulpa from the dugout) each went down swinging, missing Ramirez's change by a good foot each.\nSome other items of note: Alex Rodriguez went 0 for 4 and came out of the game after popping up to end the Yankees' sixth-inning rally, but didn't seem to be favoring his sore hamstring. He's expected to DH tomorrow, and remains one of just two players to start every game this season (Ichiro Suzuki being the other).\nJohnny Damon has a hit in six of his last seven games (including the suspended finale in Baltimore), but he's only hitting .267/.333/.400 over that span and did not play in the only game the Yankees won against Oakland over the weekend. Melky Cabrera, meanwhile, is hitting .320/.378/.469 since taking over in center field on June 1. In 1994, a 25-year-old Bernie Williams hit .289/.384/.453 in his fourth major league season, which made that the best year of his career to that point. At age 22, Melky Cabrera may just have arrived as the Yankee center fielder of the future.\nIn these first two games against the Twins, Derek Jeter is 5 for 10 from the three-hole. Robinson Cano, who was 2 for 22 coming into the series, is 3 for 6 with a homer and a walk while batting ninth. Hideki Matsui has figured out that he's trying to pull the ball too much. Matsui, who had a single and a double in his last 23 at-bats coming into last night's game, had a single and a double in last night's game alone. Finally, Bobby Abreu, who was 4 for 41 coming in to this series, got a pep talk from Roger Clemens prior to Monday night's game (Clemens told him he was the hitter he had feared most when facing the Phillies the last few years, and that he needed to go back to being that guy) and has gone 6 for 7 with a walk and a monster home run in the first two games against the Twins.\nIt's my belief that Abreu is the key to the Yankees' season. The offense seems to go in which ever direction he goes. Indeed, during last night's game, YES posted a stat showing that Abreu has hit roughly .350 in Yankee wins and roughly .150 in Yankee loses. As the Yankees saw down the stretch last year, when Bobby Abreu's on his game, he's a difference maker. Alex Rodriguez may be having a monster season, but with Jason Giambi out possibly for the season, and Damon making me wonder how Kevin Thompson or Shelley Duncan might do as the everyday DH, Abreu needs to be the Bobby Abreu Clemens remembers.\nHere's hoping facing Johan Santana this afternoon doesn't undo all of that good stuff.\nThe Yankees continue their quest to gain ground on the Twins tonight as Chien-Ming Wang faces off against Carlos Silva. Last year this would have been a mismatch, but Silva has rebounded from his disastrous 2006 season to be roughly league average. The most noticeable change in his game is that he's posting his highest walk rate as a starter (remember, this is the guy who walked just nine men in 188 1/3 innings in 2005). It could be that, after a season of serving up meatballs (246 hits and 38 homers in 180 1/3 innings in 2006), Silva has figured out that there's a limit to pitching to contact.\nChien Ming-Wang, who is just a year Silva's junior, has been exploring similar things this year, using his slider to increasing his strike-out rate by more than a K per nine innings, though that's been countered by a corresponding reduction in his ground ball rate. Curiously, with Silva walking more men and Wang striking out more men, the two have very similar peripherals (Silva has exactly one more walk, strikeout and home run allowed, albeit in 8 2/3 more innings). Wang's still the better pitcher, of course, and holds a comfortable advantage in hit rate, ERA, and WHIP. In fact, Wang has failed to complete the sixth inning just once in his 12 starts this year and has allowed more than four runs just once, while Silva has done each four times. Since May 16, Wang has posted a 2.64 ERA in eight starts, going 6-1 with one no decision while allowing just two home runs in 58 innings.\nOf course, the big story tonight will be how Alex Rodriguez feels the day after straining his hamstring in a collision with Justin Morneau at first base. If Alex Rodriguez misses a significant chunk of time due to the injury, the Yankees can chip away all they want, but all they'll have to show for it is a pile of rubble. One thing's for sure, Miguel Cairo will be starting at third base tonight.\nBy the way, for those who stay up late enough, I'll be making an appearance on Steve Thompson's show on WCCO radio in Minneapolis tonight at midnight to talk Yankees. You can listen live on their website.\nNice Win, Bad Break\nRoger Clemens pitched a strong, efficient game against the Twins on Monday night, good enough for win #350 in his storied career, as the Yanks rolled 5-1. Clemens needed only 97 pitches to complete eight innings. He was helped out by an aggresive Twins offense; normally, Clemens uses up close to 100 pitches to get through five or six innings. But his splitter was working and the Twins were duly impressed.\nIt was a much-needed win the Yanks, but then again, aren't all their wins much-needed these days? Bobby Abreu absolutely plastered a ball high into the upper deck in right field and had three hits all told.\nHowever, it wasn't a free-and-easy night as Alex Rodriguez came up lame with a strained hamstring after colliding with Justin Morneau at first base. He was able to walk off the field on his own. Still, the thought of Rodriguez missing a significant chunk of time is disheartening to say the least. He'll be checked out by a doctor today. Hopefully, he'll just miss a few games. Even if they have to shut him down until after the break, so be it, so long as he's not gone for a month or more. Pete Abraham is cautiously optimistic at best.\nThe 1995 season was shortened to 144 games because of the previous year's strike. After 73 games, one game past the season's half-way point, the Yankees were seven games under .500 (33-40), in fourth place in the AL East 7.5 games behind the division-leading Red Sox and ten games out of the Wild Card behind eight other teams.\nAt the end of this week's four-game series against the Twins the Yankees will have played 82 games, one game more than half of the season. They are currently four games under .500 (37-41), in third place in the AL East 11 games behind the division-leading Red Sox and nine games out of the Wild Card behind five other teams.\nIn 1995 the Yankees won the Wild Card after signing Darryl Strawberry in late-June, swapping Danny Tartabull out for Ruben Sierra, and acquiring David Cone for a trio of minor leaguers at the trading deadline. Sierra represented only a modest improvement over Tartabull, but Strawberry, who joined the major league team in early August, represented a significant improvement over Luis Polonia, whom the Yankees promptly dumped on the Braves. Meanwhile Cone and Scott Kamieniecki completed a rotation that had been only three deep since Jimmy Key and Melido Perez went down to injury in May and June respectively.\nStill, it took a nearly miraculous 25-6 stretch run combined with a similarly staggering collapse by the AL West-leading Angels (who lost 28 of 37 before rallying to force a one-game playoff with Seattle) and an otherwise weak league (just one other non-division winner finished with a winning record) for the Yankees to sneak into the postseason in 1995. This year will not be 1995 all over again. There's only one spot to fill in the rotation and the Yankees won't fill it with the defending Cy Young Award winner. There are no superstar reclamation projects toiling in the independent leagues (the closest the Yankees could come would be Clemens, who is already here). Meanwhile, the teams they're trying to chase are not only good, but should get better.\nTake the Twins, for example. Everyone and their mother knew that Sidney Ponson and Ramon Ortiz would be replaced in the rotation two of the organization's four strong triple-A starters by now and indeed they have. Meanwhile, Johan Santana is a notoriously dominant second-half pitcher. Meanwhile, last year's batting champ, Joe Mauer, is back after missing most of May due to injury and hitting .267/.380/.517 since June 16, and there's still room for improvement at third base, designated hitter, and in Ron Gardenhire's lineup construction.\nThe improvements in the rotation are the most dangerous however, as the Big Three in the Minnesota bullpen, Joe Nathan, Sideshow Pat Neshek, and Matt Guerrier, have been flat out dominant, combining for a 1.82 ERA, 8.9 K/9 and a 0.93 WHIP in 123 1/3 innings. That means opponents have six innings get a lead, which is a tougher trick without Ponson and Ortiz to kick around.\nTonight the Yankees try to get ahead against Boof Bonser, who hasn't turned in a quality start in his last five tries, posting a 6.91 ERA over that span as opposing batters have hit .328/.362/.529 against him. The Yanks gave Boof his worst going over of the season back on April 10 when they plated seven runs off him, knocking him out in the fifth. Ah, remember that series? The Yankees had opened with a disappointing 2-3 showing on their opening home stand, but we all blamed it on the cold and were convinced we were right when they beat the Twins 18-3 in their first two games indoors in Minnesota behind strong outings by Andy Pettitte and . . . Carl Pavano? Seems like a lifetime ago now.\nRocket Clemens takes the hill for the Yanks looking to rebound from the 7.15 ERA he's posted in his last three outings (two starts, one relief inning). The Yankees, who trail the Twins by four games in the Wild Card hunt, could really use a sweep this week, as unlikely as that may be. If nothing else they need to win the three games not started by Johan Santana, who was a 16-year-old free agent signee by the Houston Astros in 1995. Times have changed folks.\nThe Yankees scored two runs off Joe Kennedy in the first inning of Friday night's game against the A's. Mike Mussina made that hold up for seven innings and, after Kyle Farnsworth let two men on in the eighth, Mariano Rivera came on to get the last four outs to secure a 2-1 win.\nOn Sunday, the Yankees were still looking for their third run of the series as they had been one-hit by Chad Gaudin and Rich Harden on Saturday in a 7-0 loss. Kei Igawa pitched well in Saturday's game with the significant exception of the three home runs he allowed in 6 1/3 innings. One of those dingers was hit by Jason Kendall, who had previously hit a total of two home runs in his two and a half seasons with the A's. Scott Proctor gave up hits to three of the four men he faced in relief of Igawa and, with Mike Myers' help, all three men came around to score. After the game, Proctor, still reeling from walking in the winning run in Baltimore, burned his glove and spikes in front of the dugout.\nThe Yankees finally broke through to score five runs in Sunday's finale, but it didn't do them much good as Andy Pettitte got lit up for eight runs before a single Yankee crossed the plate. Pettitte, who said after the game that, despite a good warmup, he had absolutely no command and that his pitches were just centering themselves over the plate, got the hook with two outs in the A's seven-run second inning. Ron Villone pitched 3 1/3 scoreless innings as the Yankees rallied to make it 8-5, but Mike Myers and Luis Vizcaino allowed a trio of insurance runs (Myers' again being an inherited runner, this time charged to Brian Bruney) to put the game out of reach at the eventual final of 11-5. Proctor, breaking in his new equipment, finished things off by retiring the four batters he faced on nine pitches (six strikes).\nAnd so the Yankees' slide continues as they fall to 2-9 over their last four series, all of which they lost. They're now four games under .500, which is where they were on June 7, and a whopping nine games out in the Wild Card race behind five other teams including the departing A's. Suddenly the AL East, where they're in third place, 11 games behind Boston, seems more winnable. Tomorrow they begin a four-game series against the Twins, who are another of those five teams ahead of them in the Wild Card race (and one with a nearly identical record to the A's). They pretty much need to sweep that one. Johan Santana pitches on Wednesday. (Do you see where I'm going with this?)",

        "title": "BioLife4D bioprints human cardiac tissue [Video]",
        "raw_content": "Biotech company: We're one step closer to printing human organs\nBiotech 3D printing startup BioLife4D has successfully produced human tissue in the form of a cardiac patch, the company announced on Monday, bringing it one step closer to printing organs viable for transplant.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s interesting about this is that it\u2019s being 3D bioprinted,\u201d Joseph Woo, MD, the chair of the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Stanford University, told Yahoo Finance. \u201cInstead of constructing it by hand in a dish, you can 3D print it on the dish.\u201d\nBioLife4D says the bioprinted cardiac patches could bring significant cost and time savings by making the creation process scalable. The company, which has raised more than $1 million selling public securities, aims to eventually produce organs on demand.\nAbout 610,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year, and 735,000 people suffer from heart attacks, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In the developing world, the black market for organ trafficking generates somewhere between $840 million and $1.7 billion annually, according to a report by nonprofit organization Global Financial Integrity.\nCardiac patches\nWoo explained that the idea of a cardiac patch is analogous to a patch on a tire.\n\u201cIt\u2019s sort of a kind of colloquial term to describe a tissue-engineered construct that is placed onto the heart to try to repair the heart. \u2026 A patch can be made of a variety of things, like a conglomeration of stem cells, or it can be a gel that has proteins in it that help heals the heart.\u201d\nBioLife4D stated that the cardiac patch, created at a research facility in Houston, is derived from a patient\u2019s white blood cells and contains multiple cell types included in the human heart.\nA visualization of the 3D bioprinting process. (Photo: Courtesy of BioLife4D.)\nWoo, a spokesperson for the American Heart Association, noted that this development could bring material benefits to the industry by shaving off time spent to make the patches, increasing precision and adding stability.\n\u201cThere\u2019s an ability to change things very rapidly. You simply need to change out the ink and rewrite the program,\u201d said Woo. \u201cAnd cost \u2014 it\u2019s labor intensive. When you\u2019re switching from handmade to machine-made, there\u2019s the capital expenditure of the machine and the labor cost.\u201d\n\u201cIt has been shown that grafting biocompatible patches onto the infarcted myocardium can improve cardiac tissue repair post ischemia.\u201d (Credit: Stanford School of Medicine)\nAiming for human hearts\nThe ability to bioprint human cardiac tissue provides a \u201cclear and rapid pathway towards bioprinting human hearts,\u201d said Ravi Birla, PhD, BioLife4D\u2019s chief science officer in a press release. The next steps will involve constructing parts such as valves, blood vessels, and a mini-heart. The company hopes that by using the patient\u2019s own white blood cells, the company can eventually create a human heart that can be transplanted.\n\u201cWhat we\u2019re talking about doing will solve the problem of supply and enable people on waiting lists to get hearts,\u201d said Steven Morris, founder of BioLife4D. \u201cUnlike a lot of other things that happen with medical advancements, this will be a win-win for everybody.\u201d\nHowever, Woo is skeptical of bioprinting a functioning human heart in the near future.\n\u201cThere are a lot of organs that would be easier to print first, like the liver,\u201d Woo said. \u201cThe liver has a more straightforward structure. \u2026 That would be an easier organ to print. The heart is a much more complex organ to synthesize than a liver or say a kidney, or the spleen or pancreas.\u201d\nRead more from Yahoo Finance: Map: What citizens around the world worry about most",

        "raw_content": "Free-swinging Avisail Garcia does it his way\nAvisail Garcia, Chicago hope (AP Photo/Gary Landers)\nIt didn\u2019t take long for Avisail Garcia to get back in fantasy\u2019s good graces. Even on the eve of a major holiday, his explosive Tuesday mobilized the pickup community.\nGarcia\u2019s season got off to a dead-end start. He didn\u2019t hit for three weeks (.233/.250/.315, one homer), then a hamstring injury kept him out for two months. Out of sight, out of mind. I had Garcia stashed on a few DL lists, and every so often I\u2019d calibrate the trade market. No takers.\nBut maybe this story comes with a happy ending. Garcia returned on June 22 and he\u2019s been sizzling, hitting .365 with six home runs. Three of those homers came in the last two days, which is why his ownership spiked up to 50 percent. Heck, it jumped 27 percent on Tuesday alone.\nTo be fair, Garcia is riding a .406 BABIP (that\u2019s no joke, Teddy) since his return, and he\u2019s never going to be a SABR darling. He\u2019s struck out 14 times and walked just once (his only walk of the season) over these 12 games. He sees the ball, he hacks at the ball.\nThere\u2019s an irony to players like Garcia \u2014 the more modern your league is, the less likely they are to trust him. Egads, he doesn\u2019t walk. Yikes, his chase rate is up to 47.6 percent this year (and it\u2019s 42.2 percent for his career). But sometimes this actually turns out to be a leak of good fantasy player, the burden of being too deep into the advanced numbers. Garcia had all sorts of wonkiness to his 2017 profile, and he ended the year with a .330-75-18-80-5 line, nifty production over 136 games.\nAnd to think, Garcia\u2019s doing all this with a hamstring that might not be 100 percent.\nWhite Sox OF Avisail Garcia told to take care to protect his ailing hamstring https://t.co/cFFJc2EGBn pic.twitter.com/px3UUiVF1c\n\u2014 Zesty White Sox (@zesty_whitesox) July 4, 2018\nFifty percent is the equator for pickup usefulness. This is last call in the most shallow of leagues. Everyone else has to decide what Garcia is worth in the trade market.\nConventional wisdom says that freewheeling approach will come back and bite him, but it hasn\u2019t in a year and a half. Maybe Garcia is a rare player who can succeed with an unorthodox style. Not everyone needs to hit the same way. And sometimes aggression is your best friend in that batter\u2019s box.",

        "raw_content": "Ford: Mustang driver injured by air bag fragment in North Carolina crash\nDETROIT (Reuters) - Ford Motor Co F.N. said on Sunday night it was cooperating with U.S. safety regulators investigating a report the driver of a 2007 Ford Mustang was injured in August by a metal fragment from the car\u2019s air bag.\nThe Mustang logo is seen on the grill of new 2015 Ford Mustang GT during the Ford Motor Co. unveil event in New York December 5, 2013. REUTERS/Brendan McDermid\nThe 2007 Mustang was part of a June recall of millions of cars from nine manufacturers because air bag inflators made by Japanese supplier Takata Corp 7312.T could rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin.\nThe so-called \u201cregional recalls\u201d were carried out mainly in high-humidity states such as Florida after Takata said the inflators could be susceptible to rupture if exposed to moisture or extreme humidity.\nNorth Carolina is not one of the high-humidity states listed in Ford\u2019s June recall, which covered Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The 2007 Mustang owner\u2019s complaint was filed on Oct. 30 with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).\nFord could not confirm that the 2007 Mustang involved in the North Carolina accident was equipped with Takata air bags.\nIn a statement released on Sunday night, Ford said: \u201cBased on the field reports and testing currently available, the Takata airbag inflator designs used in Ford vehicles have not shown the same risk of fragmentation as other Takata airbag inflator designs used by other manufacturers. We are continuing to investigate this issue, and we are cooperating fully with NHTSA and Takata.\u201d\nFord\u2019s June recall covered 58,669 cars. It was expanded in late October to 85,023 cars, including about 61,000 Mustangs from model years 2005-2008; 23,700 Ford Ranger pickups from model years 2004-2005, and 256 Ford GT sports cars from 2005-2006.\nA Takata spokesman was not immediately available for comment.\nThe NHTSA complaint about the August accident in North Carolina said the Mustang \u201ccrashed into the rear end of another vehicle\u201d at about 35 miles per hour.\n\u201cThe air bag deployed with abrupt force and a metal fragment dislodged, causing injury to the driver\u2019s leg, which required medical attention,\u201d the complaint said.\nRuptured inflators in Takata air bags have been linked to four deaths in the United States and one in Malaysia, all in Honda vehicles. NHTSA has received dozens of complaints linked to the air bags.\nThe U.S. safety agency on Friday said Takata-related recalls since April 2013 number around 8 million. Before then, Honda alone had recalled more than 2.5 million cars, dating to November 2008, to replace defective inflators in Takata air bags.",

Herbert served five of his nine aces against the Australian in the final set.\nIn Sunday\u2019s final, Herbert will face Japanese qualifier Yoshihito Nishioka, ranked No. 171 in the world. Both men are seeking their first career singles title.\n\u201cI\u2019m really happy and proud of myself,\u201d said Herbert, who won the French Open doubles title this year with partner Nicolas Mahut. \u201cMy plan is to rest and have a good night and be ready for tomorrow. It\u2019s my dream to lift the trophy.\u201d\nNishioka survived 14 aces and rallied to defeat fifth-seeded Fernando Verdasco of Spain, 1-6, 6-3, 7-6 (5) in two hours, 22 minutes.\nThis is the first ATP final for Nishioka and the second for Herbert, who was runner-up in Winston-Salem, N.C., in 2015. It will be their first meeting.\nAustralian qualifier Bernard Tomic extended his success against seventh-seeded Joao Sousa of Portugal and reached his sixth ATP final with a 6-4, 6-4 victory in Saturday\u2019s semifinals in Chengdu, China.\nTomic served 12 aces, fended off all three break points and improved to 4-0 against Sousa. In his first final since Acapulco in 2016, Tomic will face top-seeded and World No. 13 Fabio Fognini of Italy.\nThe 31-year-old Fognini advanced to his fourth final of 2018 (18th overall) with a 6-7 (5), 6-0, 6-3 victory against American Taylor Fritz.\nFognini cruised after losing the first set in a tiebreak, breaking Fritz six times over the last two sets.\n\u201cI returned really well and was moving better and better,\u201d Fognini said. \u201cI am happy to be in the final.\u201d\nIf Fognini wins Sunday, he would become the first Italian to win four ATP titles in a season. His previous wins were at Los Cabos in Mexico, Bastad in Sweden, and Sao Paulo, Brazil.\n\u201cFabio is playing ridiculous,\u201d Tomic said. \u201cHe has won three titles this year and he wants to win another one.\u201d\nFognini is 2-1 in his career against Tomic, winning their most recent meeting on the clay at the Madrid Masters in 2016. Tomic won the only previous hardcourt clash at the Paris Masters in 2015.",

        "raw_content": "More Canadian Pharmacies Seek Non-U.S. Pharmaceutical Supplies\nTwo newspapers recently examined the increased number of Canadian pharmacies that have begun to seek supplies from outside the United States because U.S. pharmaceutical companies have limited supplies to the pharmacies to help prevent reimportation of their products to U.S. residents.\nPhiladelphia Inquirer : According to the Inquirer , some Canadian pharmacies have engaged in the practice for some time and do not inform consumers \"where the drugs were coming from.\" However, some more reputable Canadian pharmacies also have begun to seek supplies from New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Israel and the United Kingdom, according to Gabriel Levitt of PharmacyChecker.com, a Web site that monitors some Canadian pharmacies. Levitt said, \"The drug companies are likely to see this as fodder for saying you can't trust pharmacies in Canada, but it's worth noting that Canada is going to foreign supplies because manufacturers are cutting off their own supplies.\" He said, \"This may be the beginning of a losing battle\" for U.S. pharmaceutical companies, adding, \"They can cut supplies from one country, but can they keep going from country to country, cutting off the supplies in each place?\" Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America spokesperson Jeff Trewhitt said, \"The U.S. pharmacy system should remain closed to stop counterfeit and substandard products, which account for 15% of global pharmaceutical sales.\" He added that FDA \"has a number of concrete examples\" in which prescription drugs are sent from unlicensed sources in developing nations through Canadian pharmacies to U.S. residents who are unaware of the origins of the medications (Dorschner, Philadelphia Inquirer , 7/26).\nWall Street Journal : According to the Journal , U.S. drug makers such as Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline recently have cut back on shipments of prescription drugs to Canadian pharmacies in an effort to discourage reimportation. Such \"aggressive efforts\" against Canadian pharmacies have \"clearly had an effect on both prices and supplies,\" and some pharmacies \"that once dabbled in mail order decided it wasn't worth the trouble,\" according to the Journal . However, other Canadian pharmacies have begun importing supplies from pharmacies in New Zealand and Australia -- where drugs can cost 20% to 30% less than in Canada -- and from Israel and Chile, where drugs can be 10% to 20% less expensive, the Journal reports. It remains \"unclear whether Americans will embrace prescription drugs from nations other than Canada,\" and some health care advocates are concerned that drugs imported from other countries will not meet U.S. federal safety standards, according to the Journal (Spors, Wall Street Journal , 7/22).",

        "raw_content": "The Chemical Engineering Program in the College of Engineering at the University of Iowa was first accredited in 1926 and has maintained accreditation since that time. We have continued to make appropriate revisions in the curriculum to better serve student needs and to ensure success in their chosen careers. In the spring of 2002, the faculty of the College of Engineering adopted a revised engineering core curriculum with three primary objectives: (1) to expose students to engineering design during the first semester of the freshman year; (2) to enact a three-semester common core for all programs in the College; and (3) to provide a flexible structure that allows students to tailor elective courses to their specific career goals. This college-wide curricular assessment and revision process has had a positive impact on the Chemical Engineering Program. For example, it has resulted in the creation of a new set of engineering mathematics courses that are more relevant and responsive to the needs of engineering students; it resulted in the establishment of the Center for Technical Communication; and it has led to the development of Chemical Engineering Elective Focus Areas in the fields of polymers, biochemical engineering, process engineering, environmental engineering, business, entrepreneurship, pre-medicine, and graduate studies. Other new college-wide educational initiatives include: the Certificate in Technological Entrepreneurship, the Program for Enhanced Design Experience, the Engineering and Business Student Leadership Seminar, the International Business in London Course, and the Regents Education Abroad Program.\nThe resources available at The University of Iowa play an important role in student development. Our students are able to choose from a wide variety of courses outside the program. This helps provide a strong foundation to allow pursuit of a variety of careers and also provides our students with an awareness of the diversity of the world and its cultures. Students also have opportunities to work in research labs across campus, often participating in multidisciplinary research groups.\nOur small college, situated in a major research university, helps us provide students with some distinctive opportunities. For example, with small class sizes, each student has a much greater chance of assuming a leadership role at some time in the curriculum.\nKNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS YOU SHOULD HAVE AT THE TIME OF GRADUATION\nThe Chemical Engineering Student Outcomes are characteristics that a successful chemical engineer should have at the time of graduation. These outcomes are patterned after the basic requirements identified by the engineering accreditation board (ABET) and the AIChE Program Criteria, and are listed below.\nEach graduate will have the ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering fundamentals.\nEach graduate will have the ability to design and conduct experiments, and to analyze and interpret experimental results.\nEach graduate will have the ability to design systems, components, or processes to meet specified objectives within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability in chemical engineering.\nEach graduate will have the ability to work as a member of multidisciplinary teams, and have an understanding of team leadership\nEach graduate will have the ability to identify, formulate, and solve chemical engineering problems.(1)\nEach graduate will have an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.\nEach graduate will have the ability to communicate effectively in written, oral, and graphical forms.\nEach graduate will have an education that is supportive of a broad awareness of the diversity of the world and its cultures, and that provides an understanding of the impact of engineering practice in the global, economic, environmental, and societal context.\nEach graduate will recognize the need for and have the ability to engage in lifelong learning.\nEach graduate will have knowledge of contemporary issues.\nEach graduate will have the ability to use the techniques, skills and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.\nEach graduate will have a thorough grounding in chemistry and a working knowledge of advanced chemistry, including organic and physical and either inorganic or analytical, depending upon their individual educational goals.\nEach graduate will have a working knowledge of chemical process safety.\nEach graduate will have a working knowledge of biochemical engineering.\n(1) As an integral aspect of this outcome, each graduate will demonstrate a working knowledge, including safety and environmental aspects, of material and energy balances applied to chemical processes; thermodynamics of physical and chemical equilibria; heat, mass, and momentum transport; chemical reaction engineering; continuous and stage wise separation operations; process dynamics and control; and chemical engineering design.",

The book, available in its entirety below, examines the root causes of the forced migration of children and families in the Northern Central America\u2013Mexico\u2013United States corridor. It evaluates the policies, practices, and underlying conditions of countries of origin, transit, and destination; and examines their effects on children throughout the region, particularly with respect to the violation of children\u2019s rights. The authors additionally analyze relevant regional and bilateral accords. The book concludes with extensive recommendations for governments, rooted in human rights.\nThe Center for Gender & Refugee Studies at the University of California Hastings College of the Law (CGRS) and the Migration and Asylum Program, Center for Justice and Human Rights at the National University of Lan\u00fas, Argentina (CDHUNLa) directed Childhood, Migration, and Human Rights in partnership with civil society organizations from each of the five countries examined.

Chandler, who settled in the area in 1891. The town of Chandler began in 1912, with the opening of the Hotel San Marcos in 1913. In 1920 the Town of Chandler incorporated, with Dr. Chandler as its first Mayor. The City of Chandler has worked diligently to make the downtown area a dining and entertainment destination, and their efforts are paying off as boutique shops, art spaces and eclectic cafes have steadily increased their presence. The downtown storefronts have been restored to a modern version of their original turn-of-the-century look, and the plaza has been redesigned and named after the City's founder. The Center for the Arts, new parks, restaurants and retail centers mark an exciting future for the City.\nTullamore, County Offaly, Ireland\nLocated in the Midlands of Ireland, Tullamore boasts a unique geographic location. The Slieve Bloom Mountains lie to the south, while north of the town are the Arden Hills, a gravel ridge which is a product of the Ice Age. The boglands, for which this part of County Offaly is known, lie to the east and west. Beyond the boglands on the easter side lies Croghan Hill, an extinct volcano. The River Shannon flows to the southwest of the town, while the town itself is divided by the Tullamore River.\nThe capital town of Offaly and the powerhouse of the Country, Tullamore has a population of 250,000 serbving a 30-mile radious.

It has a rich history of techno and house music and some of the biggest DJs in world have started in this vibrant, rebellious and care free city. With one of highest densities of clubs in the world, it\u2019s no surprise that it can all seem a little daunting. But no need to fret, we\u2019ve compiled a list of the best clubs in the city so you know where to go.\nClub nights in Berlin often start on Thursday or Friday night and continue well passed monday morning - so whatever the time, you\u2019re sure to find a club that\u2019s still open. And to find out more visitBerlin highlightsor take a look at our guide to the city's beststag do barsandbar crawls.\nOften regarded as the best club in the world, this mega-club is housed in a former power plant. Spread across various floors, with the panorama bar at the top, it can host well-over 1,500 people in the main room. The minimalist design of concrete and steel is coupled with open air dance floors and Djs playing the latest techno on one of the best sound systems in the world.\nThis stylish club was one of the most important forces in the rise of minimal techno in the mid-2000s. Now, it plays the latest house and techno music and has nights that cater for all tastes. It\u2019s one of the best places in the world for electronic music, largely because of its incredible sound system. Split across two floor, it\u2019s next to the river Spree and has a wooden deck that overlooks the river and amazing Oberbaum Bridge.\nThis stylish club is smarter than the many shabby-chic venues dotted around the city. It\u2019s a New York style club, meaning that it steers towards disco and house rather than minimal techno. Decked out with LED lights, it\u2019s the place to be see and be seen.\nOne of the original clubs in Berlin, this canalside venue is still one of the most popular in the city. With a small indoor dance floor and loads of wooden decking outside, it\u2019s a chilled-out club perfect for soaking up the sun and listening to some minimal techno and house music. It\u2019s often filled with the after-hours crowd on the weekend but it\u2019s also a great place to chill and enjoy a few beers midweek too.\nOne of the longest running clubs in berlin, Tresor is currently located in a converted power station in Kreuzberg. It\u2019s a techno club through and through and has 3 rooms with some of the loudest sound systems that you\u2019ll find anywhere in the world.\nLocated in former military stables, this mixed-genre club plays host to a huge variety of acts - from hip-hop royalty like Afrika Bambaataa, to Reggae and Drum\u2019n\u2019bass legends like Congo Natty. It\u2019s located close to Kreuzberg and hosts some of the most popular nights in the entire city.\nBefore travelling to Berlin, it is worth remembering that a lot of the top clubs have strict door policies and may not be ideal for big groups.

        "raw_content": "Autonomous Cars Don\u2019t Have To Be Perfect To Save Lives\nThe battle to be firstest with the bestest self-driving car technology is heating up. Every major car manufacturer is developing systems for autonomous cars, but so are lots of tech companies \u2014 from Waymo to Uber and Apple. Tesla is in the middle \u2014 a tech company that also makes cars. Its Autopilot system may be the gold standard at the moment, but there are lots of other competitors breathing down its neck.\nAutonomous cars have a lot of hurdles to clear before a person can climb into one, set a course for the coast, and go to sleep. Highway driving is pretty straightforward, but once surface streets become involved, there are stop signs and traffic lights to consider. Bicyclists and pedestrians seem to come out of nowhere. Then there are the jerks who drive the wrong way on a one-way street or blow through a red light while texting. Devising systems that can handle all those challenges safely is a daunting task.\nBut self-driving systems don\u2019t have to be perfect to save tens of thousands of lives, says the RAND Corporation in a new report entitled The Enemy of Good: Estimating the Cost of Waiting for Nearly Perfect. Autonomous vehicles systems that are only slightly better at driving than a human could prevent hundreds of thousands of fatalities worldwide over the next 30 years. There is no reason to wait until autonomous cars are 75% or 90% better, the report suggests.\n\u201cOur work suggests that it is sensible to allow autonomous vehicles on America\u2019s roads when they are judged to be just moderately safer than having a person behind the wheel,\u201d said Nidhi Kalra, co-author of the study. \u201cIf we wait until these vehicles are nearly perfect, our research suggests the cost will be many thousands of needless vehicle crash deaths caused by human mistakes. It\u2019s the very definition of perfect being the enemy of good.\u201d\nThat\u2019s the theory. The reality is that less than perfect autonomous cars will still get into accidents, some of them lethal, and society will react. RAND estimates that when all the data is in and tabulated, highway fatalities in America for 2016 will top 40,000. Society seems to be willing to accept that level of carnage on the streets when humans are involved because, hey, we\u2019re only human, right? But will people be equally willing to accept road deaths when a computer is involved in the driving process?\n\u201cThis may not be acceptable because society may be less tolerant of mistakes made by machines than of mistakes made by people,\u201d says David Groves, a co-author of the study and co-director of RAND\u2019s Water and Climate Resilience Center. \u201cBut if we can accept that early self-driving cars will make some mistakes \u2014 but fewer than human drivers \u2014 developers can use early deployment to more rapidly improve self-driving technology, even as their vehicles save lives.\u201d\nThe problem, as RAND sees it, is that it will take decades to accumulate the data necessary to verify that self-driving systems are 100% effective or nearly so. In the meantime, large numbers of people will die in vehicle collisions. Many of those fatalities could be avoided if self-driving systems were approved for public use sooner rather than later. It\u2019s the \u201cgreater good\u201d conundrum. Is it better to let one driver die so that two others might be saved?\nMany states now permit companies to test their autonomous cars on public streets, but they always have a human driver riding shotgun, just in case. Michigan passed a law last year permitting the sale of self-driving cars within its borders, even though there are no Level 5 fully autonomous cars available yet.\nThe chances are the same thing will happen when cars with some self-driving ability start crashing into each other \u2014 as happens when an electric car catches on fire today. Even though thousands of conventional cars go up in flames every day, the news never reports on those events. But every battery fire garners worldwide attention from the press, especially if that car is a Tesla.\nThere will be bumps along the road to fully autonomous cars. It can be argued it is better for society to save some lives even if it is not possible to save them all. Would the US be better off if highway fatalities were cut to \u201conly\u201d 20,000 a year instead of 40,000? No doubt the trial lawyers representing the next of kin of those who do die in car accidents where computers are involved in the driving process will have something to say on that subject.\nTags: ethics, RAND report, safety, self driving cars, self-driving vehicles\nTeslas Drive 4\u20137\u00d7 Further Than Other Cars Before Crashing \u2014 Q4 Tesla Safety Report \u2192\nUrban Planners Should Ignore New York & Israel Regarding Electric Bikes \u2192",

        "raw_content": "South Carolina is vulnerable to sea level rise, flooding, coastal storms and increasing temperatures \u2013 all which threaten the state\u2019s agriculture and energy industries as well as human health\nSouth Carolina\u2019s climate is already changing. Most of the state has warmed by one-half to one degree Fahrenheit in the last century, and the sea is rising about one to one-and-a-half inches every decade. The Southeast in general is exceptionally susceptible to extreme heat, more frequent and more intense hurricanes, and decreased water availability. South Carolina is also vulnerable to sea level rise, which poses continuing threats to the state\u2019s coastal economy and environment. In the coming decades, the region\u2019s changing climate is likely to reduce crop yields, harm livestock, increase the number of unpleasantly hot days, and increase the risk of heat stroke and other heat-related illnesses.\nSea level rise: Sea level is rising more rapidly in South Carolina than in other areas because South Carolina is also subsiding. If the oceans and atmosphere continue to warm, sea level along the South Carolina coast is likely to rise one to four feet in the next century. Rising sea level submerges wetlands and dry land, erodes beaches, and exacerbates coastal flooding.\nFlooding: Increasing temperatures and precipitation amplify the risk of flooding. Since 1958, the amount of precipitation falling during heavy rainstorms has increased by 27 percent in the Southeast, and the trend toward increasingly heavy rainstorms is likely to continue. The October 2015 floods, which cost the state as much as $12 billion, demonstrate the impacts of a changed climate. Scientists said that in this case, climate change \u201cworsened the effects of an already extreme weather event.\u201d\nCoastal storms: As the ocean warms, surface waters have more energy to convert to tropical cyclone winds, which scientists say is likely increasing the intensity of the most severe cyclonic events. This trend is strongest in the Atlantic, where rising ocean temperatures correlate closely to an increase in Atlantic tropical cyclone strength. More frequent storms could increase the deductible for wind damage in homeowner insurance policies. People may also move from vulnerable coastal communities and stress the infrastructure of the communities that receive them.\nAdaptation: South Carolina has not developed a climate adaptation plan. Without action on climate, the South Carolina coast will see an additional $743 million in annual damages by 2050, and by then $5.7 billion worth of property will be under water, according to one estimate.\nSouth Carolina residents support clean energy and climate regulations\nAccording to the Yale Map Project on Climate Change Communication 67% of South Carolina residents recognize that global warming is happening. The project finds that 72% of residents support regulating carbon dioxide as a pollutant and 82% support funding research into renewable energy sources.\nSouth Carolina shows significant potential for solar, currently untapped\nRenewable Portfolio Standard: In 2014, South Carolina enacted a renewable portfolio standard authorizing the creation of distributed energy resource programs to encourage the development of in-state renewable energy generation capacity. In 2015, renewable energy resources accounted for 5.3% of South Carolina\u2019s net electricity generation; almost 56% of that generation came from conventional hydroelectric power.\nSolar: South Carolina ranks 27th in the nation for installed solar capacity, with 143 MW currently installed or enough to power 16,000 homes. The solar industry employs 2,700 people across 67 companies in the value chain. This is in sharp contrast to North Carolina, which ranks second with a total installed capacity of 3,287 MW.\nWind: South Carolina houses 15 wind manufacturing facilities, but the state has no installed wind capacity.\nElectricity: In 2015, South Carolina was eighth in the nation in per capita retail electricity sales, in part because of high air conditioning demand during the hot summer months and the widespread use of electricity for home heating in winter.\nNuclear: South Carolina\u2019s four nuclear power plants supplied 55% of the state\u2019s net electricity generation in 2015. Two new reactors are under construction at the V.C. Summer Nuclear Station site in Fairfield County.\nPrevious ArticleFort McMurray FireNext ArticleNevada",

Find data science bootcamps in your city.\nThe Data Science Bootcamp journey for Cognitive Class (formerly, Big Data University) started in China back in September. At the time, we were in Bejing for the CDA (Certified Data Analyst) Summit, which had an attendance of more than 3,000 data analysts, data scientists, data engineers, students, and professors. After that, we held a Data Science Bootcamp in Mexico which was a 4-day affair with an attendance of 80 participants in the city of Guadalajara.\nMore recently, IBM\u2019s Cognitive Class held a four and a half day beginner friendly, hands-on data science bootcamp in New York City. It took place from Tuesday, November 29th to Saturday, December 3rd at the Zicklin School of Business, Baruch College, CUNY.\nBDU\u2019s Chief Data Scientist Saeed Aghabozorgi, PhD delivered the Data Science bootcamp with the aid of two fellow BDU data scientists: Candi Halbert and Hima Vasudevan. 45 participants from the corporate and academic world took part in the bootcamp.\nWe are very grateful for the help and support from Maithily Erande (Lecturer, Marketing Analytics Dept. of Marketing & International Business) in arranging this New York data science bootcamp. (Maithily is an Analytics Expert and a Product Manager/ Vice President for Product Engineering with several Fortune 100 clients including Apple, Microsoft, Dun & Bradstreet, JP Morgan Chase, Cisco, and Sesame Street.)\nIntroducing Validated Badges\nAt this bootcamp, Saeed gave an overview of data science, Cognitive Class, an introduction to the R language, data analysis, data visualization, machine learning and working with big data with SparkR. There was also a capstone project which gave participants a hands-on experience on a real-world data science project. For this project, participants used the Data Scientist Workbench, a virtual lab environment which allowed them to perform lab exercises directly from their browsers.\nFor the first time ever, participants who passed the exam were eligible not only for a certificate but for a Validated Badge as well. This badge is reserved for Cognitive Class students who pass the test for a course in person (so that we can guarantee that they were the ones who took the exam). These badges, like our regular badges, can be shared with others using social media, on your resume, etc.\nWe, at Cognitive Class, are greatly enjoying these bootcamps. The feedback received so far has been equally enthusiastic. If you are interested in attending future Data Science Bootcamps worldwide, please refer to our Data Science Bootcamps link. We hope to see you there!\nTags: data science, data science bootcamp, new york data science bootcamp, validated bages",

        "raw_content": "Home Sport Red Sox Fans Told Us What They Really Think About A-Rod\u2019s Retirement\n\u201cI don\u2019t give a shit about A-Rod,\u201d one Red Sox fan told me Tuesday night. We were seated at a bar across the street from Fenway Park, waiting for the Yankees great to begin the last week of his career. \u201cI don\u2019t hate him, but his numbers aren\u2019t legitimate,\u201d he said, referencing Alex Rodriguez\u2019s suspension for performance enhancing drugs.\nWhat about hometown hero David Ortiz, who\u2019s beem accused of the same?\n\u201cDid Big Papi do steroids? I don\u2019t know, probably,\u201d he replied. \u201cBut not his whole career like A-Rod.\u201d\nLast Sunday, seemingly out of nowhere, the Yankees announced that this would be A-Rod\u2019s final week as a baseball player. That only left four games, three of which, as luck would have it, would be hosted at Fenway Park.\nI spent the night of A-Rod\u2019s third-to-last game asking Sox fans about their least favorite memories of the man. There was, as tends to be the case in Boston, an undercurrent of jealousy to the spite, because there was a time when it seemed like he might actually be ours. But then, following the Red Sox\u2019s loss to the Yankees in the 2003 ALCS, the potential trade fell apart.\n\u201cIt was a feeling he generated here,\u201d one friend said. \u201cHe made us feel inferior to New York, as if we needed another reason.\u201d\n\u201cHis amazing athletic abilities, coupled with his playing for a team I root against was, generally frustrating,\u201d another admitted.\nFenway Park, home to the Yankees\u2019 biggest rival, is also the site of some of A-Rod\u2019s most deplorable moments\u2014at least in Sox fans\u2019 eyes.\nIn 2013, Red Sox pitcher Ryan Dempster was determined to plunk Rodriguez, who was in the middle of appealing his 211-game suspension, later reduced to a mere 162, for the use of performance enhancing drugs. After narrowly missing him at the knees, Dempster finally found the mark in the meat of his well-muscled back, resulting in riotous cheers from the crowd. A-Rod would have the last laugh that night, however, finishing with three hits, including a home run to spark a Yankees win.\nThere was also, of course, A Rod\u2019s two home runs in game 4 of the 2004 ALCS, both of which were tossed back onto the field in disgust. (The Yankees would go on to lose that game, and the next three, making the Red Sox the first\u2014and still the only team in baseball history\u2014to come from behind in a 0-3 deficit in a series.)\nThat may or may not have been retaliation for the most hate-able moment of A Rod\u2019s rivalry with the Sox, which happened earlier that year. Bronson Arroyo had blasted him with a pitch that he understandably took umbrage with. One thing led to another, and catcher Jason Varitek shoved A-Rod in the face, leading to a bench-clearing brawl.\nWith so many distasteful memories to draw upon, you might have expected some excitement leading up to A-Rod\u2019s last-ever appearances at Fenway. When his retirement was announced on Sunday, Girardi said at the time \u201cIf he wants to play in every game, I\u2019ll find a way.\u201d\nAnd yet by Tuesday night, Girardi said A-Rod would not be in the lineup until Thursday. \u201cMy job description does not entail farewell tours,\u201d he said. \u201cMy job description is to try to win every game and to try to put everyone in the best possible position to do that. And that\u2019s what I\u2019m trying to do.\u201d\nNot only that, A-Rod would not be honored at Fenway, as had been done for fellow Yankees Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera when they retired. \u201cThere will be nothing approximating that for Rodriguez, team officials said,\u201d as the Boston Globe reported. \u201cIf there is a public acknowledgment of his leaving the game, it will be brief.\u201d\nAs for Rodriguez, he said, \u201cI came to the stadium hoping to play all three games, maybe two out of three,\u201d but he wasn\u2019t getting that opportunity. He also said he expected Sox fans to have a last chance to give him one big long boo.\nIt was looking doubtful: Few people I spoke with seemed to much care. Most barely seemed to register that A-Rod was in town for the last time. It was sad, in a way, like losing an old rival but forgetting what made you dislike him so much in the first place.\nIt wasn\u2019t that big a deal, one fan named Ben said. \u201cI\u2019ve always respected good baseball players, and he was always a good one. You obviously hate him because of the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry or whatever. He might be a cock bag, but he\u2019s obviously talented.\u201d\nWith so many distasteful memories to draw upon, you might have expected some excitement leading up to A-Rod\u2019s last-ever appearances at Fenway.\nApparently, the Yankees-Sox rivalry isn\u2019t as big as it used to be: Three scalpers who skittered around Fenway all said tickets to the games weren\u2019t selling. One offered a bleacher seat for $80 to a man who talked him down to $60.\nDown the street, a man holding a broom and a sign that read \u201cYankees Suck, Spare a Buck,\u201d was keeping the flame of hatred alive anyway. \u201cI fucking hate him,\u201d he said of A-Rod. \u201cI hope somebody beats his head in with a baseball bat. I fucking can\u2019t stand none of the Yankees. Yankees fucking suck.\u201d The broom, he said, \u201cis for sweeping the fucking shit off the sidewalks. The Yankees are polluting our streets.\u201d\nFurther up the road, a man named Bob, who held a billboard declaring that sinners were bound for hell, paused from his sermonizing to talk about whether A-Rod was destined for the eternal inferno. \u201cAs long as he isn\u2019t on steroids\u2014he isn\u2019t now, but I think he was before. It\u2019s not right, because people like Henry Aaron, they didn\u2019t take steroids. It\u2019s not fair to the other people. It\u2019s not right.\u201d\nA Yankees fan named Jennifer said, \u201cHe\u2019s not my favorite player, but he\u2019s on my team, so I\u2019m going to support him. If he comes in tonight, he\u2019s going to get booed, absolutely. I\u2019d be tempted to boo him myself.\u201d\nDavid Ortiz Might Just Cut Your Lawn\nA while later, I paused at the top of Lansdowne Street in my Red Sox t-shirt, to take a picture of the sun setting over Fenway. A car full of dudes drove by. \u201cGo Yankees, fucker!\u201d one of them yelled. There it is, I thought. A dose of the good stuff.\nOn Wednesday night A-Rod would finally make it into the game. He was called on to pinch hit in the 7th inning, after another round of \u201cWE WANT A-ROD!\u201d chants from the crowd. At one point, the broadcast zoomed in on a fan holding up an oversized picture of Varitek pushing in A-Rod\u2019s face.\nAfter working into a 2-1 count, he connected with the ball, launching it into right field, approaching the wall before falling short, where it was easily caught. The crowd, at long last, erupted in boos. All was right in the world.\nPrevious articleRivals Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte Raced for the Last Time at the Olympics\nNext articleAt Least This TV Anchor Made an R.

        "raw_content": "Property rights and Brett Frischmann\u2019s social value of infrastructure\nby Andrew Odlyzko \u00b7 April 26, 2012\nBrett\u2019s book is a very valuable addition to the literature on the governance of infrastructures. Just the collection and summary of a huge variety of references would be valuable by itself, as a guide to literature. And then there are Brett\u2019s own contributions in this volume, only some of which have been published before.\nI was only able to skim through Brett\u2019s book, so cannot provide a careful evaluation of it. But one point that might be worth making explicitly is that at a basic level, his argument for a commons approach to infrastructure regulation is the same as that of the currently dominant private property rights movement.\nWhy are clear and secure property rights important? Because they provide assurance to entrepreneurs and investors that the fruits of their money and efforts will not be misappropriated by some Robber Barons. But lack of restrictions on infrastructure providers means that they can act as Robber Barons with regard to other businesses, appropriating the fruits of their investments. Lack of regulation of monopolies is similar to a lack of law.\nThat this is an issue can be seen in numerous instances, such as the article about U.S. railroads in the Sept. 26, 2011 issue of Fortune by Mina Kimes, \u201cRailroads: Cartel or free market success story?\u201d A chemicals company covered there decides to expand in Texas and not in West Virginia because in Texas their site \u201chas access to three railroads,\u201d whereas in West Virginia it is captive to a monopoly that can charge far above its costs.\nThus the issue is really about protecting property rights of either the infrastructure providers or the economy at large. Where should the balance lie? It should be said that this is not a rhetorical question, as historically, it has often been the case that infrastructure providers were often given more leeway to engage discriminatory pricing when the costs of the infrastructure were high.\nTags: commonsdiscriminatory pricinginfrastructure regulationproperty rights\nKen Lay: R.I.P.\nNext story Competition Can Protect the Open Internet\nPrevious story Why Do We Lack the Infrastructure that We Need?",

        "raw_content": "Posted in children, Christmas, life, tagged Anderson, art projects, children, grandparenting, school, volunteering on January 10, 2016| 4 Comments \u00bb\nI have mentioned previously that I volunteer at my grandson\u2019s school. He is in Kindergarten. Usually, I do one of two things. I either help with kids\u2019 printing practice, one on one, or I take a couple out in the group work center (in the hallway) to work on an art project. I think it\u2019s sad that there is no time for the kids to have an art project as a whole group but there is so much to be covered that there just is no time. I enjoy doing the art projects, though so it\u2019s a good fit for me.\nBefore Christmas, I was asked to do an art project where the kids would be working on making a Christmas tree picture using their shapes. We were using a large triangle, a small rectangle, and circles. The instructions were for them to (1) draw a large triangle then a (2) small rectangle touching the bottom of the triangle. They had a sample to look at and I explained it slowly and carefully to each of the two (at a time) students. There was more to it but I only gave those instructions until they had completed those steps. The first three kids really had a problem drawing the triangle and we had to erase a lot. So I thought to lightly draw three dots and have them connect them with their pencil to form the triangle. It worked like a charm but I only did it for those that were having trouble with the triangle. So when it was Anderson\u2019s turn (that\u2019s my grandson), I drew the dots for the other child and then turned to help Anderson. When I turned, he had seen me draw the dots and had drawn his own three dots, and was connecting them! No help needed. I was very pleased but the triangle wasn\u2019t quite like the others. It was narrower and not quite as large as the others. However, I did not have the heart to tell him to erase it. He had done such a good job with no help! So what if his was a little different?! I think he made a perfect little Christmas tree!\nThe last steps were to use a large marshmallow in paint to fill in the triangle and the rectangle; then a small marshmallow to paint ornaments on the tree. Kind of a clever way to incorporate triangles, rectangles, and circles (which they were studying that week) into a seasonal project!\nAnderson\u2019s Three Shapes Christmas Tree\nA Cookie Smile\nPosted in children, tagged bedtime story, cookies, kids on December 13, 2015| 6 Comments \u00bb\nWhen Anderson slept over on Friday night, we read a bedtime story on my Kindle. He said he didn\u2019t know we could read books on the Kindle (tablet) so I showed him all the kid books I had downloaded to his Kindle Fire. We picked one called Diego Dilemma and the Cookie Conundrum. It\u2019s a cute story but I would recommend that the author go back and use kid language. The sentence structure and a lot of the vocabulary are way above the 5 year age recommendation of the book.\nIn the story, the little boy, Diego, loves cookies but can only eat them when he earns them. He earns them by eating vegetables and by being a good boy. One day he decides to eat all the cookies without permission and, just like his dad warned, he turned into a cookie!\nSo now, Anderson keeps asking if he is going to turn into a cookie. Last night he asked if he was going to turn into a candy cane and this morning, after his second granola bar, he asked if he was going to turn into a granola bar!\nAh! The power of the written word!",

The choices we make, no matter how large or small, define who we become, and the freedom to make those choices is invaluable to all of us.\nOur aim at Cornerstone is to enrich the lives of the individuals we serve by providing a safe and healthy environment, conducive to personal choice.\nBy providing a safe and healthy support structure we know that our service\nrecipients will be empowered to live self-directed lives!\nTogether we can make a difference in the lives of the people we support!\nAbout Cornerstone Support Services\nCornerstone Support Services was founded by Trey and Elizabeth Cave\nfor Trey\u2019s Aunt, Pamela Kay Byers.\nPam spent her childhood growing up in a close knit, loving environment with her parents and siblings in Hedgesville, West Virginia and was somewhat sheltered from the rigors of daily life.\nIn her younger years, Pam\u2019s parents helped her connect with a local sheltered workshop for people with developmental disabilities. She was finally able to go to work like her parents and earn a paycheck. She established wonderful friendships and took her routine and job responsibilities very seriously. She seldom missed any days, and gave anyone standing in her way of going to work a very difficult time.\nIn her retirement years, and after her parents passed away, Pam moved in with her sister\u2019s family, where Trey spent many of his teenage years trying to keep up with Pam\u2019s active lifestyle. Pam was involved in many activities, one of which was her local bowling league. Pam developed an unusual ability to seemingly control the bowling ball, as if by telekinesis, as it slowly made its way to the lead pin.\nAs Trey grew up living with Pam, he developed a sincere desire to help her and other people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live life to its fullest.\nTrey found work in group homes and day programs early on in his career. One of his first experiences was as a teacher at a developmental center. Subsequently, he earned a Non-Profit/Human Services Management Degree from the University of Tennessee and progressed into management and administration within the ID/DD field.\nElizabeth began her career in the field as a residential counselor in a group home for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Elizabeth earned a degree in Christian Ministries from Tennessee Temple University and also progressed into management and administration.\nThe Caves envisioned Cornerstone in 2003. They developed a strong person-centered philosophy and began making preparations to start the organization. In 2009, Cornerstone was licensed by Virginia's Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.\nWith the help of the wonderfully talented and skilled people who have joined Cornerstone\u2019s team, Cornerstone offers an array of services for people with developmental disabilities. Families often find it comforting that the people at Cornerstone understand the personal and complex relationships families have with each other as they search for the right placement for their loved one.\nThank you Pam for being who you were and impacting so many lives in ways no one could have predicted.\nCo/CEO\nTrey Cave\nSharlee Rodriguez\nNikkea Hardy\nChris Grindheim\nGinny Davidson\nLPN Health Office\nFostinat Tabb\nClothing Depot Manager\nGarrett Arreola\nDirect Link Email: Ecave@CornerstoneSupportServices.com",

        "raw_content": "By Gregory K. Moffatt\nWhen you get your annual physical, does your primary care physician ask if you\u2019ve been feeling atypically sad or anxious lately?\nPrimary care doctors are often the first professional a person will tell about symptoms related to depression or other mental health issues. With this in mind, two Pennsylvania counselors have created a presentation on coping skills and takeaways from cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) that medical doctors can use with their patients.\nWhen Brandon Ballantyne and Kevin Ulsh spoke to the primary care physicians and other medical personnel at Tower Health in Reading, Pennsylvania, recently, they found an interested and engaged audience. The medical practitioners were particularly interested in learning more about how to help patients who present with anxiety and related problems during medical appointments.\nUlsh and Ballantyne are mental health therapists in the inpatient and partial hospitalization programs, respectively, at Reading Hospital, which is part of the Tower Health system. Ballantyne is also a licensed professional counselor and American Counseling Association member.\nHow can aspects of CBT be translated for use in the medical professions? CT Online asked Ulsh and Ballantyne some questions to find out more.\nHow did this come together? Did you reach out to the doctors, or did they invite you to come?\nWe have always been interested in the concept of extending coping skills practice and implementation into primary care settings. We believe that the primary care setting is where most individuals first report problems associated with anxiety, stress, depression and so on. In many situations, the primary care physician is the first provider to address such issues.\nRecently, we have observed a growing trend to integrate primary care and behavioral health services. We decided to take these observations and build a coping skills lecture that can assist providers in the primary care setting with addressing stress and anxiety, along with other mood-related problems with the patients they serve. We developed an outline for a presentation and broadcast the idea to the primary care Tower Health continuing education team, who then gave us an invitation to present it as a part of their lecture series.\nHow did it go? Were the doctors open to your message? What were some of the things they asked or commented about?\nThe lecture went well. The doctors in attendance were attentive and interested. They asked several questions about how to address behaviors particularly associated with adolescent anxiety such as school avoidance and oppositional defiance. We addressed these questions by referring back to the cognitive model, which we highlighted as a foundation of our lecture.\nWe think it was important to have a discussion with the doctors about the clinical indicators of avoidance versus defiance. Utilizing a cognitive philosophy, we emphasized that avoidance typically shows itself as a behavior which prevents an individual from doing something that they would like to be able to do or would want to be able to do if not affected by anxiety. The anxiety that drives avoidance is typically a product of some anticipated fear. \u2026 The individual has cognitively come to the conclusion that the fear itself is an already established fact or guarantee.\nDefiance, on the other hand, is a behavior that is driven by the desire to maintain control by resisting demands and expectations to comply with things that are simply undesirable. In other words, in the cognitive process that drives defiance, an individual may think, \u201cIf I don\u2019t like it or don\u2019t want to do it, then I don\u2019t have to, and it doesn\u2019t matter what anyone says.\u201d\nTherefore, primary care physicians may be able to get a better handle on what it going on with the patient, clinically, simply by asking about their thinking.\nFrom your perspective, how could CBT be helpful in a medical setting? Please talk about why you chose to focus on CBT when you spoke to the doctors.\nWe chose to focus on cognitive behavior therapy when providing this lecture because CBT is an evidence-based approach that has been shown to be an effective form of treatment for multiple psychological problems across various populations. We believe that in the primary care settings, patients will benefit most from socialization to the cognitive model, so that they can gain a clear understanding of the difference between a thought and an emotion.\nOnce an individual understands the relationship between a thought, an emotion and a behavior, they acquire control over regulating their mood and reactions in a positive way. CBT-based skills are goal-oriented, problem-focused and able to be introduced and taught to individuals dealing with a wide range of psychological problems.\nIn the fast-paced primary care setting, brief psychological education and skills practice can be a piece of the treatment puzzle that not only addresses the emotional problems of the patient, but also offers skills that they can continue to utilize and benefit from outside of the office (such as deep breathing, sleep hygiene, behavioral activation, disputing cognitive distortions, thought journals, activity scheduling, etc.).\nFrom your perspective, what are the benefits to this kind of collaboration? In other words, benefits not only for the professionals involved, but for the patients/clients too.\nThere are multiple benefits to this kind of collaboration. We believe that in most cases, the first call that patients make when they are not feeling well is to their family doctor. On some occasions, they are being seen by their family doctor for a physical health issue. However, in the midst of assessment, they may reveal an emotional problem or talk about a significant stressor that is causing psychological distress.\nThis is because for the most part, individuals attend treatment with a primary care doctor whom they trust. Maybe they have been seeing this doctor for most of their life. They have learned to confide in this doctor quite often. Therefore, they may be more open to acknowledging emotional problems within that office setting.\nThe type of collaboration that we facilitated reinforces the importance of integrating psychological education and coping skills practice into a primary care setting. For professionals, it improves the continuum of care and reduces the stigma of mental health problems. Ongoing behavioral health collaboration, and having a behavioral health component to primary care treatment, implies that psychological distress is a natural area of assessment which patients might otherwise be hesitant to acknowledge or discuss. In this way, patients can become more open to behavioral health support and more accepting of their need to seek outpatient therapy to further resolve symptoms.\nWhat advice or tips would you give to counselors who might want to collaborate with medical professionals, like you did, in their local area?\nWe would suggest that mental health professionals in all parts of the country consider developing a presentation on one particular area of therapy and/or psychological education that you feel passionate about [and] which you also utilize with the clients you serve. The goal is to develop a component of that theoretical orientation that is applicable to a primary care setting. It has to be something that primary care physicians can utilize within the short amount of time that they have with their patients.\nWe found that in our lecture, doctors were most interested in the practical applications of CBT as it pertains to the acute management of anxiety. We assume that other helpful topics may be closely related to dialectical behavior therapy [and] concepts such as mindfulness, distress tolerance and opposite action.\nIs this something you think that counselors could or should do more of? What did you learn through this process?\nAs a result of providing this lecture, we learned that primary care doctors are very much interested in behavioral health support and assistance. It seems as though there has been an increase of patients presenting to family physicians with emotional problems. The doctors that we spoke with were very thankful for the background on CBT and the skills practice that we provided. In fact, they practiced some of the skills with us.\nIt reminded us that regardless of the [health] profession, we all will be most effective [with] our patients if we are also taking good care of ourselves. Integrating behavioral health support, psychological education and coping skills practice into a primary care setting reinforces the importance of seamless multidimensional treatment, ultimately helping patients to receive effective care that addresses their physical and emotional needs, and offers the safety to accept the behavioral health treatment that they may otherwise be hesitant to pursue.\nBallantyne and Ulsh can be contacted via email:\nBrandon.Ballantyne@towerhealth.org\nKevin.Ulsh@towerhealth.org\ncognitive behavioral therapy, healthcare, integrated care, interdisciplinary",

        "raw_content": "By Oliver J. Morgan September 7, 2017\nCounselors and mental health professionals of all stripes are coming to understand the prevalence of childhood adversity, toxic stress and trauma in our caseloads. Barely a day goes by that we do not see someone with a trauma history, whether we are aware of it or not. Some have even called for universal trauma screening of all clients and patients as an ethical responsibility, especially for those individuals who are more at risk, including first responders, military personnel, refugees, those with serious medical and chronic illness, and people struggling with addiction. It would help to know what we are dealing with upfront.\nI became aware of a duty to inquire about trauma in 2007 when I began the Supportive Oncology Service (SOS), a psychosocial counseling practice colocated in a medical oncology setting. I had been teaching, practicing and publishing mostly in addiction studies at the time, but I was hungering for change in my own clinical work. When the opportunity to work alongside physicians and learn about serious medical illness came along, I jumped at it. Quickly, I discovered that what I was learning about the interface between addiction and trauma could just as easily be applied to the occurrence of trauma in a cancer-involved population. This cross-fertilization of ideas and their practical outcomes has been a rich source of learning for me.\nThe Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) studies, a collaborative project between Kaiser Permanente and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), instigated my interest. The ACE project was designed to study long-term relationships between adverse experiences in childhood and adult health and behavioral outcomes. I had begun looking into this as an offshoot of my addiction work but promptly came to realize its applications in the general population. The initial studies were conducted from 1995 to 1997 with 17,000 ordinary Americans in a large outpatient medical clinic and now have been replicated across a number of states and even internationally.\nSince its inception in 1995, numerous papers have been published by the ACE project that present the evidence for consistently strong and graded relationships between adverse experiences in childhood, household dysfunction and a host of negative health outcomes later in life. Many of the most serious illnesses facing our country \u2014 heart disease, cancers, chronic lung and liver disease, a host of autoimmune disorders, obesity, substance-related and addictive disorders \u2014 as well as a variety of health-risk behaviors, including smoking, use of illicit drugs, high numbers of sexual partners and suicide attempts, are strongly related in a dose-response or graded fashion to childhood adverse experiences.\nThis suggests that the impact of adverse childhood experiences on adult health status and adult suffering more generally is powerful. Dose-response relationships indicate a change in outcome (e.g., harmful substance use or ischemic heart disease) that is associated with different levels of exposure to a stressor. Experiencing multiple categories of trauma in childhood increases the prospects for later illness. ACE studies measure the number of categories of exposure and not the number of instances; for example, one instance or multiple instances of sexual assault would count as one category. If anything, this underestimates a person\u2019s exposure to adverse experiences.\nResearchers are finding that the occurrence of adverse experiences is quite common in all populations. Relationships found in the original population are being replicated elsewhere. Fifty-two percent of those participating in the original study acknowledged at least one category of adversity in childhood. Eighty-seven percent of those who acknowledged one adverse childhood experience also experienced additional adversities. The study revealed that adverse experiences occur in clusters, with 40 percent of the original sample reporting two or more categories of adversity and 12.5 percent experiencing four or more categories of adversity.\nThe ACE categories are as follows:\nMother is treated violently\nLoss of a parent for any reason\nMental illness in the home, including suicidal behavior or institutionalization\nCriminal behavior in the household, including incarceration of a household member\n\u2018Mild\u2019 adversities?\nWhat first strikes people when they review the categories above is how different the list seems from what we expect. It challenges our assumptions. Many of us are familiar with the standard understandings of trauma connected to natural or human-made disasters, battlefield experiences, violence or sexual assault. Clearly, these are life-altering events. Although these categories are on any list of traumatic events, so are forms of household dysfunction, neglect, and emotional abuse and humiliation. We are coming to understand that, when dealing specifically with children, a wider range of traumatic experiences can be equally devastating and produce debilitating outcomes years later. Further studies are also uncovering negative outcomes related to more \u201cordinary\u201d adversities such as accidents, childhood hospitalizations or the loss of a sibling.\nThe ACE results had suggested that the different categories were essentially equal in their damage. This was startling. However, ongoing trauma science supports this conclusion. Although some categories of adversity stand out because of the social significance and stigma attached to them, we now know that more hidden or subtle adversities, such as neglect and experiences of recurrent humiliation by a parent, can both be detrimental in the present and carry long-term consequences for adult health and psychiatric illness. Scientists such as Martin Teicher and his colleagues at Harvard University have documented the potent negative effects of parental verbal aggression and emotional maltreatment.\nMore common adversities can have large impacts on children. The clinical and research focus on posttraumatic stress disorder may have slanted our expectations, giving us the impression that adversity comes only with high-profile suffering. If it doesn\u2019t leave a mark, it can\u2019t be all that damaging, right? In reality, nothing could be further from the truth.\nIn short, poor health and risk for illness \u2014 medical as well as psychiatric \u2014 can be rooted in childhood psychosocial experiences. They can also be hidden due to time, denial and social taboo. The ongoing ACE studies and allied research have given us a new lens for viewing health, wellness and disease. This is nothing short of revolutionary. It is instructive that this new vision has been picked up by the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Programs for medical education, intervention and prevention are being developed by these groups and others.\nLooking at cancer\nIn 2010, one of the ACE papers made the dose-response link to risk for lung cancer. This got my attention. Adverse childhood experiences are obviously not the only causes of cancers \u2014 disease is often multicausal. However, the associations this paper made between having a history of adverse childhood experiences and those who were first hospitalized at younger ages with lung cancer and died prematurely at younger ages from lung cancer were striking. Smokers were much more likely to have a history of adverse childhood experiences than were nonsmokers. In addition, those with adverse childhood experiences were more likely to begin smoking at younger ages than were other smokers.\nI was amazed until I went back and did a chart review for my small oncology service. At that time, we had seen about 100 patients. Admittedly, this was a potentially skewed population, but even so, 60-70 percent of our patients with a variety of cancers met the ACE criteria for adverse experiences, and a large proportion of them had multiple ACE categories in their past. Research had suggested that those with four or more categories of childhood adversity were likely to be diagnosed with cancer or some other serious illness. Those with six or more categories had a life expectancy shortened by up to 20 years. My patient population buttressed those numbers. In addition, several of my patients who were not smokers but nevertheless were diagnosed with lung cancer did have a history of trauma. That day I became a believer in universal screening for trauma in my population of cancer patients. My colleagues and interns have also become believers.\nWhen I discussed these outcomes with several of my physician colleagues, they quickly came to the conclusion that because childhood adversity was strongly associated with the risk of early smoking \u2014 nicotine is a powerful anti-anxiety agent \u2014 that would likely explain the prevalence among patients with lung cancer. Case closed. If a cancer patient also had a traumatic childhood history, smoking was the likely pathway from trauma to lung cancer. Risky behavior led to later disease.\nThis did not sit well with me, however. First, it did not explain the high trauma numbers in my cancer patients more generally (a number of whom were nonsmokers) and, second, identifying only this pathway seemed too facile. I believed that more was involved.\nChanges that make us vulnerable\nAt first blush, ascribing disease to risky behaviors and poor lifestyle choices seems reasonable. There is obviously some truth to it. Lots of scientific evidence points to smoking as a risk for cancer. Still, I wondered, could there be other pathways from childhood adversities to cancer? The connections seemed clear, but what were the explanations? As an addiction specialist, I was suspicious of the \u201cpoor choices\u201d explanation. Were there other, hidden dynamics that were not so obvious?\nThis is where the intersection of childhood adversity and neurobiology becomes so important. As a counselor, I had focused my thinking on the social and psychological explanations. Childhood adversity short-circuited psychosocial development. Trauma created toxic stress in a person\u2019s life. Negative experiences became part of a person\u2019s sense of self and view of the world, which made living difficult. These negative experiences also placed emotional burdens on the person\u2019s psyche and spirit, creating negative internal images, expectations and attachments at the core of the personality. People learned to be wary of others and became more guarded, isolated and distrustful. Fair enough. But how do we get to physical disease?\nThis move requires an alchemical kind of insight \u2014 namely that the footprints of our psychosocial experiences of attachment and caregiving are inscribed into our brains and bodies in what Allan N. Schore, Daniel J. Siegel and others call \u201cpsychobiological\u201d experiences. Donna Jackson Nakazawa, in her 2015 book Childhood Disrupted, described it this way: Biography becomes biology.\nWe are continuing to learn about the depths of this process. From our earliest beginnings, experience shapes the development of our brains, bodies and critical survival systems. The formation of our neural architecture, emotional and cognitive networks, regulatory systems, coping and stress response, and immune systems depends on the kinds of caretaking we receive. Social networking is part of our DNA it seems; it is essential for our survival but can also create vulnerabilities.\nIn childhood, all the essential systems are forming and developing. When children are caught in cycles of abuse, neglect or humiliation, their stress response and coping mechanisms can be degraded and become stuck in the \u201con\u201d position. Their bodies are continually bathed in inflammatory stress chemicals. This can lead to physiological changes, long-lasting inflammation, eventual breakdown and disease. The immune system can be weakened, even at the level of genes. Neuroscience is helping to document these enduring kinds of changes, large and small, that are the pathways to later illness.\nAnother form of negative development that can follow from childhood adversity affects the child\u2019s regulatory coping mechanisms for stress. This can lead to difficulties such as substance use and addictive disorders. Emotional and behavioral regulation are essential skills, built upon the foundation of neurological development. Toxic stress, however, can alter and \u201cmiswire\u201d the development of critical coping systems, resetting their baseline levels of activity and making them supersensitized, not only to stress but also to triggers that signal the approach of rewarding or stressful situations. In these instances, individuals may substitute chemical or behavioral forms of coping, reward, relieving stress or alleviating anxiety and pain. Regularly resorting to such substitutes can ingrain these choices into neural channels that are resistant to change once firmly set.\nThese ways of thinking have opened my eyes. Childhood maltreatment and adversity alter children\u2019s brain development and create the underlying conditions for short-term coping and long-term medical and psychiatric problems, including cancers and addiction. The intersection of knowledge from developmental psychology, attachment theory, trauma and neuroscience is presenting us with many new ways to conceptualize the challenges that confront us. As counselors, it is imperative that we remain open to these new developments.\nBased on my experience, I want to make some practical recommendations:\n1) Counselors need to learn all we can about adverse childhood experiences and their impact on adult living.\n2) We can all benefit from universal screening for adversity and trauma as a first step in clinical work. A few simple questions can be added to our standard history taking. Asking these questions on an abstract or computerized form, followed up with face-to-face conversation, has been found to be the best practice for obtaining accurate information. There may be direct health benefits to these conversations. As reported in Nakazawa\u2019s book Childhood Disrupted, physicians who discussed adverse childhood experience questions with patients following completion of intake forms found a 35 percent reduction in office visits and an 11 percent reduction in emergency room visits for patients with chronic ailments over the ensuing year.\n3) When we discover a history of adversity, we should remain curious, be empathic and be predisposed to believe. The primary consideration initially is creating a safe space.\n4) Be prepared for pendulum swings in the conversations. It is normal to move forward in the story and then back off when the client shows anxiety.\n5) Teach grounding techniques so that the client can retreat to safety when overwhelmed.\n6) As is the case in much of our counseling work, self-knowledge is critical. Each of us can benefit from conducting our own self-assessment of adversity and trauma. Understanding our own issues and working with them may be the most important first step in recognizing the problem and then working with others.\nGood luck. This work, I believe, is one of the greatest secrets and potential resources in clinical practice today. Trauma continues to be a hidden occurrence among our clients and patients for too many counselors, physicians and human service providers. We need to do better.\nOliver J.

The federal agency says that rates of smoking are disproportionately higher \u2014 a little more than double \u2014 among those diagnosed with mental illness than among the general population.\nIt is widely accepted that the nicotine in cigarettes is highly addictive, but people struggling with mental health issues often turn to cigarettes for reasons that go beyond their addictive qualities. For instance, many people smoke as a coping mechanism to deal with difficult feelings. In addition, despite their negative health effects, cigarettes are still largely viewed by society as an \u201cacceptable\u201d addiction in comparison with other substances.\nThe reality? \u201c[Smoking] is a devastating addiction and a difficult one to quit,\u201d says Gary Tedeschi, clinical director of the California Smokers\u2019 Helpline and a member of the American Counseling Association. \u201cThis clientele [those with mental illness], in particular, need the encouragement and support to go forward [with quitting], and many of them want to, despite what people might think. \u2026 To let people continue to smoke because \u2018it\u2019s not as bad\u2019 [as other addictions] is missing a really important chance to help someone get healthier.\u201d\nTo drive home his point, Tedeschi points to a statistic from the 2014 release of The Health Consequences of Smoking \u2014 50 Years of Progress: A Report of the Surgeon General, which says that more than 480,000 people die annually in the United States from causes related to cigarette smoking. Close to half of the Americans who die from tobacco-related causes are people with mental illness or substance abuse disorders, Tedeschi says.\nIn Tedeschi\u2019s view, the statistics connecting smoking to mental illness are \u201cso obvious that it\u2019s almost an ethical and moral responsibility to help this population quit.\u201d\nPart of a package\nFord Brooks, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and professor at Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania, says he has never had a client walk in to therapy with a primary presentation of wanting to stop smoking.\nTobacco use \u201cis always part of a package\u201d that clients will bring to counseling, Brooks says. In his experience as an addictions counselor, smoking is often piled on top of a laundry list of other challenges that may include alcohol or drug addiction, depression, a marriage that is on the rocks, the loss of a job or financial trouble.\n\u201cThey\u2019re on the train to destruction, and their nicotine use, in their minds, is on the back end [in terms of importance]. \u2026 Is the smoking related to what their presenting issue is? Chances are it probably connects somehow. Don\u2019t be afraid to bring it up,\u201d advises Brooks, co-author of the book A Contemporary Approach to Substance Use Disorders and Addiction Counseling, which is published by ACA.\nTedeschi, a national certified counselor and licensed psychologist, notes that many people who call the California Smokers\u2019 Helpline are struggling with comorbid conditions or mental illness in addition to tobacco use. The phone line is one in a system of \u201cquitlines\u201d operating in each of the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam.\nFor clients struggling with mental health issues, smoking may serve as a coping mechanism to deal with uncomfortable feelings or anxiety, Brooks says. Years ago, when smoking was still allowed in many indoor spaces, Brooks led group counseling in detox, outpatient and inpatient addictions facilities. \u201cWhen powerful emotions would come up in group, [clients] would fire up cigarette after cigarette to deal with those feelings and quell anxiety,\u201d he recalls.\nWith this in mind, counselors should help prepare clients for the irritability, anxiety and other uncomfortable feelings they are likely to experience when they attempt to stop smoking cigarettes. \u201cTalk about what it will feel like to be really anxious and not smoke\u201d and how they plan to handle those feelings, Brooks says. \u201c\u2026 If a person has anxiety or depression and stops smoking, what initially happens is they could get more depressed or more anxious without nicotine to quell the emotion.\u201d\nThe counselors interviewed for this article urge practitioners to ask every single client about their tobacco use during the intake process, no matter what the person\u2019s presenting problem is. \u201cIf you\u2019re helping them to get mentally and physically healthier, this [quitting smoking] is a very critical part of the overall wellness picture,\u201d Tedeschi says.\nCounselors shouldn\u2019t be afraid to ask their clients whether they smoke, says Greg Harms, a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC), certified addictions specialist, and alcohol and drug counselor with a private practice in Chicago. \u201cIt can feel weird the first couple of times, especially if this is not your area of expertise,\u201d says Harms, who does postdoctoral work at Diamond Headache Clinic in Chicago, an inpatient unit for people with chronic headaches. \u201cA lot of times, clients have heard all the bad stuff about smoking. A lot of them, deep down, they know they\u2019d be better off if they were to quit smoking. They may have failed so many times in the past that they\u2019re discouraged. They might be hesitant to bring it up because this is a counselor and not the [medical] doctor. If you bring it up, more often than not, the client is going to engage with that. Even if they don\u2019t, if it\u2019s not the right time for them, you\u2019ve planted that seed. \u2026 It might come to fruition down the road. I\u2019d much rather plant that seed than not say anything at all.\u201d\nWhen Harms was a counseling graduate student, he completed an internship at the Anixter Center, a Chicago agency that serves clients with disabilities. While there, he worked as part of a grant-funded program for smoking cessation for people with disabilities that was spearheaded by the American Lung Association. He also presented a session titled \u201cIntegrating Smoking Cessation Treatment with Mental Health Services\u201d at ACA\u2019s 2013 Conference & Expo in Cincinnati.\nIf a client doesn\u2019t feel ready to begin the quitting process right away, the counselor can put the topic on the back burner to address again once the client has made progress on other presenting problems or has forged a stronger relationship with the practitioner. However, that shouldn\u2019t mean that the topic is off the table completely, Harms says. A counselor should talk regularly with the client about quitting smoking, even if it\u2019s only for a few minutes each session.\n\u201cGive them a little nugget of information [about quitting], and then you can focus on what they\u2019re there for,\u201d Harms says. \u201cHelp them find ways to deal with their presenting problem, then they\u2019ll trust you. Once they\u2019re in a better place, revisit [the idea of quitting]. We don\u2019t have to address it and get their buy-in during the first session. It would be fantastic if that was the case, but it\u2019s OK if it\u2019s not. In most cases, time is on our side to develop the relationship, plant the seed and revisit it. If the client is not ready, we can harp on [quitting] all we want, [but] it won\u2019t do anything.\u201d\n\u201cYou really have to take the client\u2019s lead and go at the pace they\u2019re willing,\u201d Harms continues. \u201cDon\u2019t push. Respect their decision. Even if they\u2019re not ready for [quitting], let them know that [you\u2019re] there for them and respect their autonomy to make that decision.\u201d\nPositioned to help\nCounselors are particularly suited to help clients quit smoking because the profession has an array of tools focused on behavior modification, Tedeschi asserts. Motivational interviewing, cognitive behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and other models can be useful in helping clients stop smoking. But techniques from any therapy model that counselors are comfortable using can be adapted to help clients navigate the challenge of quitting, Tedeschi says, especially when combined appropriately with pharmacologic aids approved by the Food and Drug Administration.\n\u201cWe\u2019re in the business of helping people change. The principles that a counselor uses to help someone understand an issue and begin to make steps toward change apply to smoking cessation as well,\u201d Tedeschi says. \u201cCounselors help people understand their motivation to change and help them come up with a plan to change.\u201d\nHarms agrees, noting that in most cases, a counselor will have significantly more time with a client than a medical professional will. Instead of \u201chitting [the client] over the head\u201d with the dangers of smoking, Harms says, a counselor can afford to focus on the positive, use a strengths-based approach and build on what the client wants to work toward rather than what he or she wants to avoid.\n\u201cWe [counselors] are so strengths-based. It\u2019s our natural inclination to tell the client, \u2018Yes, you\u2019re strong enough to do this,\u2019 rather than [taking] a scare approach,\u201d Harms says. \u201cWe can find their strength and have that unconditional positive regard for them, regardless of how long it\u2019s taking. We have the patience to sit with a client as they\u2019re going through [quitting]. We can build that relationship and be a resource.\u201d\nTedeschi recommends that counselors use the \u201cfive A\u2019s\u201d to discuss smoking with clients. In this approach, a practitioner should:\nAsk each client about his or her tobacco use\nAdvise all tobacco users to quit\nAssess whether the client is ready to quit\nAssist the client with a quit plan\nArrange follow-up contact to mitigate relapse\nEach of these steps is important, but providing support and follow-up as the client begins to quit is particularly critical, Tedeschi says.\n\u201cThe first week of quitting is the hardest. If [a counselor] waits for a week to talk to the client, you could lose about 60 percent of people back to relapse,\u201d he says. \u201cIf someone is able to quit for two weeks, their risk of relapse drops dramatically.\u201d\nIf clients resist the idea of quitting or do not feel ready to quit entirely, Tedeschi suggests that counselors work with them to stop smoking for one day or even just an afternoon. During this time, have clients monitor how they felt: How was their anxiety level? What were their cravings like? This technique can introduce the idea of stopping and prepare clients for the quitting process, he says.\nBrooks recommends using motivational interviewing to help clients make the life change to quit smoking. \u201cNicotine is a drug, and it\u2019s no different than if [clients] were to say they want to stop drinking. Work with their motivation to identify what they can possibly do for that,\u201d he says.\nPart of the quitting process involves clients going through an identity shift, Tedeschi notes. Clients can be behaving as nonsmokers \u2014 abstaining from cigarettes \u2014 long before they make the mental leap that they are no longer smokers, he says. It is important for clients to make that mental shift from \u201ca smoker who is not smoking\u201d to a \u201cnonsmoker,\u201d Tedeschi says. Counselors need to work with these clients to identify as and accept the nonsmoker label. \u201cAs long as someone calls [himself or herself] a smoker, they will be open to turning back to cigarettes,\u201d he explains.\nCounselors can use the following tips and techniques to better equip clients to meet the challenge to stop smoking.\nSet a quit date. This is an important step, but one that clients must take the lead on and choose for themselves, Tedeschi says. Research shows that simply cutting back without setting a quit date isn\u2019t very effective, he adds. The behavioral patterns that often accompany smoking (for example, smoking after eating or taking smoke breaks at work) make it very hard to keep tobacco use at a low level. Setting a quit date creates accountability and is a \u201csign of seriousness,\u201d he says. At the same time, be flexible. \u201cFor some people, it\u2019s just too hard to think about [sticking to a quit date],\u201d Tedeschi says. \u201cFor some \u2014 especially those who are struggling with other substances \u2014 they need to take one day at a time.\u201d\nBe aware of psychotropic medications. Counselors should be aware that if clients are taking prescription medicines for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder or other mental illnesses, their dosages might need to be adjusted as they quit smoking. Nicotine is a stimulant, so it speeds up a person\u2019s metabolism. This means a person who smokes will burn through psychotropic medications faster than someone who doesn\u2019t smoke, Harms explains. Counselors should be certain to talk this through with clients and work with their doctors to modify their dosages, he says. \u201cThis is especially noticeable with mood stabilizers. It\u2019s acute with bipolar disorder,\u201d Harms says.\nThe same holds true with caffeine, Tedeschi notes. After they quit smoking, clients may notice that they get jittery from caffeine and may need to cut back on their coffee intake.\nUse cognitive strategies. Counselors can help clients create a list of personal reasons why they want to stop smoking \u2014 beyond the health implications, Tedeschi says. The list doesn\u2019t need to be long, but the reasons need to be compelling and motivating enough to carry clients through a nicotine craving. For example, one of Tedeschi\u2019s clients wanted to quit because his young grandson asked him to. As a reminder, the client kept a toy car that belonged to his grandson in his pocket. \u201cWhen he had a craving [for a cigarette], he would pull [the toy car] out of his pocket, look at it, hold it and squeeze it,\u201d Tedeschi says. \u201cIt helped.\u201d\nTurn over a new leaf. As they quit smoking, encourage clients to organize, clean and purge their homes and cars of smoking-related materials such as ashtrays, advises ACA member Pari Sharif, an LPC with a practice in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey. That action will help clients turn a new page mentally and start fresh, she says. Sharif also encourages clients to air out their homes and clean their closets so their clothes and furniture no longer smell like smoke.\nOn a similar note, if clients have a certain mug that they always use to drink coffee while smoking, Harms suggests that they get a new mug. Or if they always stopped at a certain gas station to buy cigarettes, he suggests that they now change where they buy gas.\nWhen cravings strike, breathe. Sharif, a certified tobacco treatment specialist, introduces breathing techniques to all of her smoking cessation clients. She asks these clients to take measured breaths for roughly two minutes, inhaling while slowly counting to four, then exhaling for four counts.\n\u201cInstead of the reflex habit to grab a cigarette, take a moment to stop and ask why. Be more in control of yourself and your mind,\u201d she tells clients. \u201cPause to do breathing and body scanning from head to toe. Ask yourself, \u2018What am I doing? Why do I need this [cigarette] to calm down?\u2019 \u2026 [Through breathing exercises,] your breath becomes deeper and deeper. Close your eyes. Your body starts relaxing and your anxiety level goes down.\u201d\nSharif also recommends that clients download a meditation app for their smartphones and use a journal to record how they\u2019re feeling when cigarette cravings strike. This helps them log and identify which situations and emotions are triggering their need for nicotine,\nGet to the root of it. Asking clients about the circumstances that first caused them to start smoking can help in identifying what triggers their nicotine use and the bigger issues that may need to be addressed through counseling, Sharif says. In some cases, a specific traumatic event or stressor caused the person to start smoking. In other instances, it was a learned behavior because everyone in the household smoked as the client was growing up. \u201cFind out when they started smoking and why,\u201d Sharif says. \u201cGradually, when they become more aware of themselves, they quit.\u201d\nChange social patterns. Cigarettes are often used as a coping mechanism when people experience anxiety in social situations, Harms says, so clients may need to focus on social skills as they start the process of quitting smoking.\n\u201c[Cigarettes] are their way to socialize and get out and meet people. If you have social anxiety, you can still go up to someone and ask for a cigarette or ask for a light. It\u2019s programmed socialization,\u201d Harms explains. \u201cIt gives you an excuse to be close to people, feel more sociable. If you take away their cigarettes, you\u2019ve got to replace that.\u201d\nBrooks agrees, noting that clients who smoke likely have friends who are also smokers. For example, he says, it is not uncommon to see people smoking and talking together outside of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Counselors can help clients prepare to avoid situations where smoking is expected and practice asking people not to smoke around them, Brooks says. Counselors can also support clients in creating social networks of people who don\u2019t smoke, including support groups for ex-smokers, he adds.\nBreak behavioral habits. Similarly, Brooks says, counselors can help clients change the behavioral habits they connect to smoking, such as starting the morning by reading the paper, drinking coffee and smoking a cigarette. Counselors can suggest activities and new rituals to replace the old ones, such as taking a daily walk, he says.\nHarms encourages clients to replace their former smoke breaks with \u201cclean air breaks.\u201d They can still take their normal time outside, but instead of smoking, he suggests that they walk around the block, sit and read a book, eat an apple or use their smartphones outdoors. If they had a favorite smoking spot outside, he urges them to find a new place to go instead.\nFind comforting substitutes. \u201cThe whole ritual of lighting up a cigarette \u2014 tapping the pack to pull out a cigarette and flicking the lighter \u2014 the behaviors that go with [smoking] can be very comforting,\u201d Harms says. \u201cSometimes that\u2019s what\u2019s so hard to break \u2014 the behaviors that go with it.\u201d\nTedeschi recommends that counselors work with clients to have comforting alternatives ready to go even before the clients attempt to quit smoking. It is hard for people to figure out alternatives in the heat of the moment when a craving strikes, he explains. Tedeschi offers several possible substitutes for consideration: sugar-free gum, beef jerky, cinnamon sticks and even drinking straws cut into cigarette-sized lengths through which clients can inhale and exhale.\nIf clients are comforted by having something in their hands, Brooks suggests keeping a pen, stress ball or prayer beads nearby. Staying hydrated and carrying a water bottle can also help these clients, Tedeschi adds. Most of all, counselors should work toward the idea of replenishment and filling in where clients feel they are losing something, he says.\nDon\u2019t dismiss pharmacotherapy. A wide variety of quitting aids are available, from nicotine patches, lozenges and gum, to prescription pills such as Chantix. The counselors interviewed for this article agree that these stop-smoking aids can be helpful when used alongside counseling. However, Tedeschi says, counselors should work with their clients\u2019 physicians when such medications are being used, or make sure that clients are talking with their physicians. Counselors should also be aware of the potential side affects that these medications can have, such as aggressive behavior.\nBrooks notes that none of these options is a magic solution to quit smoking. For example, nicotine gum and other medications can be prohibitively expensive, and some clients can continue to smoke even while using nicotine patches or gum. As for electronic cigarettes, Sharif and Harms agree that they are not a recommended alternative. Electronic cigarettes are carcinogenic, addictive and mimic the \u201cpuffing\u201d behavior of regular smoking, Harms notes.\nConnect clients with other supports. Counselors should equip clients with resources they can turn to outside of counseling sessions, such as local support groups for ex-smokers or the phone number for their state\u2019s tobacco quitline, Brooks suggests. Nicotine Anonymous (nicotine-anonymous.org) is an ideal resource for clients who are trying to stop smoking, Brooks says. The 12-step method at Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) can also be applied to tobacco use for clients who attend AA meetings already or who don\u2019t have a Nicotine Anonymous support group in their local area, he adds.\nSharif suggests that counselors keep brochures and other information about quitting smoking alongside the materials they might have about depression or suicide prevention in their offices or waiting rooms. It is better for counselors to distribute information that they have vetted themselves rather than having clients search the internet for information on their own, she notes.\nOn average, it takes a smoker 10-12 attempts to fully quit cigarettes, according to Tedeschi. For that reason, it is imperative that practitioners not give up on clients after their first, second or even 10th try, he stresses.\nQuitting smoking is hard, Tedeschi acknowledges, but possible with perseverance. \u201cDon\u2019t be discouraged as a clinician if your client relapses. [Quitting] is definitely not a one-time event; it\u2019s a process. \u2026 Relapse prevention is important, but it\u2019s equally important to be ready for the relapse,\u201d he says. \u201cOne of the best things a counselor can give a client is that reassurance. Any attempt to quit for any length of time is a success rather than a failure. That\u2019s just the reality of this addiction. As long as they keep trying, they\u2019ll get there. The only failure is to stop trying. The most important message a counselor can give a client is to never give up.\u201d\nStatistics: Smoking and mental health\nRoughly 50 percent of people with behavioral health disorders smoke, compared with 23 percent of the general population.\nPeople with mental illnesses and addictions smoke half of all cigarettes consumed in the U.S. and are only half as likely as other smokers to quit.\nSmoking-related illnesses cause half of all deaths among people with behavioral health disorders.\nApproximately 30-35 percent of the behavioral health care workforce smokes (versus 1.7 percent of primary care physicians).\n\u2014 Source: U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration (see bit.ly/1sEx97a)\nTreatment Strategies for Substance and Process Addictions (2015), a book published by the American Counseling Association, contains a chapter on nicotine addiction (available in print or as an e-book at counseling.org/bookstore).\nA Contemporary Approach to Substance Use Disorders and Addiction Counseling (2015)\nsecond edition, by Ford Brooks and Bill McHenry is also available in print or as an e-book at counseling.org/bookstore.\nThe North American Quitline Consortium website (naquitline.org) has a map and information on all the smoking cessation hotlines available in the United States.\nSmokefree.gov has resources for practitioners and clients, including a text message-based cessation program.\nThe American Lung Association has a wealth of resources and tools, including online support communities,at lung.org.\nThe National Council for Behavioral Health offers tobacco cessation resources at thenationalcouncil.org/topics/tobacco-cessation.\nMental Health America offers infographics on smoking and mental illness at mentalhealthamerica.net/conditions/smoking-and-mental-illness-quick-facts.\nThe article \u201cSmoking Use and Cessation Among People With Serious Mental Illness\u201d was published in the September 2015 issue of the Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine (see bit.ly/2dXCrGf).\nFind out about becoming a certified tobacco treatment specialist via the Association for the Treatment of Tobacco Use and Dependence (attud.org).\ncancer, Counselors Audience, integrated care, medication, Substance Abuse & Addictions, Wellness\nBreast cancer touches all of our lives, and I am no exception. In February 1996, I went for my first mammogram. I was only 33 at the time, but I had read about the importance of having a baseline mammogram for early detection of breast cancer. Early detection meant cure, right? As a single mother of two young daughters, I was all about early detection and cures.\nSo, I went for a mammogram, astonished at how my 34B\u2019s were able to squish like a schnitzel on the chilled mammography plate. The technician greeted me with a smile and warm hands, and for both I was grateful. The procedure, while uncomfortable, was not unbearable. I mean, I had given birth to an 8-pound baby without so much as an episiotomy. This was a simple walk in the park. The technician informed me that no news was good news, and I left feeling initiated (once again) into the sisterhood of womankind.\nYou can imagine my shock when I received a call mid-March that something unusual had been detected in my mammogram and that I needed to return for an amplification. The previously chipper technician met me with a solemn face and greeted me in almost a whisper. She did not make eye contact. The amplification was done in silence. Again I was told that I would be contacted if something was detected.\nA week later, I was scheduled for a needle biopsy. As I lay facedown, my left breast dangling through the hole in the hospital table, thoughts raced through my head: \u201cWhat if it is cancer? I can\u2019t stop working. How will I take care of the girls?\u201d\n\u201cNo,\u201d I told myself. \u201cThis is not cancer. I\u2019m only 33 after all, and who gets cancer this young? I am a vegetarian. I am an aerobics instructor, for heaven\u2019s sake! I don\u2019t feel sick!\u201d\nI was provided with a bag of ice to place over the area of my breast that had been biopsied. They had found three suspicious areas and removed them, leaving a marker just in case \u2026 In case of what? I wondered. I left with my bag of ice and a fearful heart.\nI started noticing articles in newspapers and magazines about young women with breast cancer. Had these always been there? Was I just now seeing them? I went home, hugged my daughters and cried. I cried the entire weekend as I waited for Monday\u2019s pathology report.\nI went alone to the hospital. I didn\u2019t want to feel like I had to take care of another human being if my news was grim. I wasn\u2019t sure I could take care of myself, let alone another person.\nI went to the desk and announced my arrival. Again, the quiet whispered reception. I was immediately whisked away to a back office. Alone. Alone with a running video titled Living With Breast Cancer. Oh, my God! It\u2019s true! I must have breast cancer. They\u2019re preparing me by showing this video.\nI began rehearsing how I would tell my family \u2026 my parents \u2026 my brothers \u2026 my daughters. The pathologist arrived and sat in a chair across from me. I took a deep breath. I don\u2019t think I exhaled until I had been home for several days.\nThe pathologist began. \u201cWell, we found three suspicious nodules and we removed them.\u201d OK, buddy, so what are they?\n\u201cI\u2019m curious,\u201d he continued. \u201cHave you ever experienced a trauma to the left breast?\u201d\nA trauma? You mean other than the needle biopsy that occurred the previous week? \u201cNo,\u201d I replied in a small voice while still holding my breath. \u201cNot that I am aware of. Why?\u201d\n\u201cThese are calcifications that appear to be from a traumatic blow to the breast,\u201d he answered.\nLet me get this right. I have been poked, prodded and petrified because of benign calcifications that possibly occurred during a Thanksgiving round of family football?\n\u201cSo, I do not have cancer?\u201d I whispered.\nHe shook his head and finally made eye contact. I was flooded with relief. I would live. I would raise my daughters. I would endure their teenage antics, their graduations, their weddings perhaps. I might even experience grandchildren!\nWhat I wasn\u2019t prepared for was the second wave of emotion that I experienced \u2014 anger. Anger at the time wasted, waiting and worrying for four excruciating days before I had to return to the hospital, find parking and sit in a room for 20 minutes watching a video about breast cancer. Anger at waiting for a doctor to hand over my fate. To me, this seemed so insensitive and cruel. What is wrong with health care that we treat the disease without treating the person?\nHowever, I was 33 years old, a single mother, and I had just been told that I did not have cancer. I left that hospital, lived my young life and put breast cancer aside \u2014 until recently.\nI am a licensed clinical professional counselor. I had been in private practice for a few years when I received an email from METAvivor (metavivor.org), a local nonprofit group whose mission includes providing emotional support to individuals living with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer and promoting funding for research projects. The organization was looking for a therapist to facilitate a support group focused on meaning construction and stage 4 metastatic breast cancer.\nAuthor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl provided us with a foundational understanding of the importance of meaning construction in his classic book Man\u2019s Search for Meaning. He proposed that the search for meaning was universal to the human experience and that it was a prerequisite for mental and physical well-being. Furthermore, an inability to make sense of our situation has been found to be associated with poor health. Therefore, a cancer support group that promoted meaning-making could provide patients with the necessary tools to experience a sense of well-being, even in light of their diagnoses.\nMy clinical practice had included counseling for bereavement and hospice care, but I had been spending more time working with survivors of trauma and had focused my advanced training in the area of trauma and spirituality. So, I wasn\u2019t certain that I was going to be the best person to facilitate a support group for stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Regardless, I agreed to co-facilitate\nthe pilot group with a colleague from a local hospice.\nThe pilot group lasted eight weeks. During that time, I became acutely aware that the youngest member of the group was experiencing her diagnosis in a much different way than her older counterparts were. She was a 30-year-old married woman who had been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer eight months prior to the launch of the group. She had a beautiful 6-month-old baby boy who provided all of us such joy when he visited our group. Her disease appeared to be relentless, however, resulting in a complete bilateral mastectomy and oophorectomy and causing her days of nausea and fatigue. She would come to group pale and weak, convinced that the last round of treatment had to be curative because of its great potency. She died two months after our group ended.\nAccording to the Metastatic Breast Cancer Network, approximately 162,000 women in the United States are living with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer, and only 27 percent will survive as long as five years. This translates to one death from metastatic breast cancer every 14 minutes. Of this population, 5 percent are women younger than 45. Metastatic breast cancer is more aggressive the younger the person is at onset; only 2 percent of premenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer survive longer than five years following their diagnosis of advanced cancer. Most women living with breast cancer may share similar experiences regarding self-image, relationships and support issues, but unique needs appear to exist among young women living with advanced breast cancer.\nAs a result of meeting the young woman in our pilot support group, I conducted my dissertation research on spirituality and meaning-making in premenopausal women diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. I dedicated my dissertation to her and to all of the young women living with advanced breast cancer, and I committed my work to serve as the voice of those who can no longer speak. What follows is some of the wisdom provided to me by the women in my pilot group and research study.\nI am woman?\nThe treatment for advanced breast cancer involves invasive surgeries that remove not only what many women described as their femininity (breast tissue and nipples) but also their fertility (ovaries and uterus). As a result of treatment, women were catapulted into early menopause and became subject to the physical and psychological manifestations of estrogen depletion. These manifestations included weight gain related to decreased metabolism, hot sweats, dry skin, decrease in vaginal lubrication and decline in libido.\nAccording to the women in my study, the experience of metastatic breast cancer had stripped them of their bodies, their fertility, their youth and their sexuality. Extensive research demonstrates that physical alterations of the body related to the treatment of breast cancer may have negative effects on identity, confidence, mood, esteem, sexuality, self-satisfaction and quality of life. Treatment may involve not only the removal of breast tissue and nipples, surrounding lymph nodes and ovaries, but also the insertion of an external port to receive chemotherapy. This may be followed by radiation therapy. The body is left scarred and burned with an existing portal that emerges from the upper trunk.\nMany of the women in my study described feeling like a \u201cfreak,\u201d a \u201cmess\u201d or a \u201cpatchwork quilt.\u201d All of the women described feeling detached from their bodies following their treatments. The body that remained was described as lifeless and clinical, almost corpselike.\nBFFs and other strangers\nThe struggle to cultivate authentic relationships was a common theme in this study. The women spoke of their desire to be able to discuss the genuinely harsh reality of their diagnoses with family members and friends. However, the women felt that a substantial portion of their circles of support were unable (or unwilling) to assimilate adequately and comprehend the grave world of living with advanced cancer. The women were asked (directly and indirectly) by family and friends to compartmentalize their experience with cancer and to act as if they were not ill. Such requests led at times to feelings of anger, resentment and, eventually, rejection and isolation.\nIn addition, there appears to be an absence of sensuality as it relates to the body that remains. This, combined with decreased libido, proved to be a common issue for all the participants in my study. The women expressed a desire to resume an active, healthy sex life with their partners, but they struggled with experiencing a lack of sex drive and feeling unattractive.\nResearch indicates that women younger than 45 who are diagnosed with breast cancer have more difficulty adjusting than do older women. These younger women have lowered overall quality-of-life ratings linked to concerns about body image, partner relationships and sexual functioning, and they also exhibit less adaptive coping styles.\nIt also appears that having casual sexual encounters becomes less attractive when living with advanced cancer. One of the women described the need to feel emotionally safe before allowing a stranger into the scarred world of breast cancer. She noted, \u201cI will need to trust the person to tell my whole story.\u201d\nEngaging in honest dialogue regarding the fears experienced by a person living with a life-threatening illness seems to provide some degree of anxiety relief for the person. This appears to be the result of directly identifying and addressing that which concerns the individual.\nFor example, many of the women in this study spoke of their fear of being forgotten and not having a part in the rearing of their children. This discussion provided opportunities to identify ways that might allow their values and beliefs to continue to exist even after their lives ceased. Among the ways these women attempted to provide continuity of their presence in the lives of their families was through writing letters, keeping journals and signing cards for future events.\nIn addition to memory-making projects, all of the women in the study were involved in using their stories to promote education and awareness of the specific needs of young women living with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer.\nPink isn\u2019t my color\nIn addition to feeling isolated from family and friends, these young women living with advanced breast cancer described feeling alienated from the breast cancer community as a whole. The \u201cpink\u201d model of breast cancer awareness strives to inspire hope of survival and a cure. However, these women live with a diagnosis that mandates that they are not in remission and that the cancer has spread to other organs. For them, there is no cure at this time. One woman in the study described the pink ribbon as \u201ca noose that is killing me.\u201d\nFaith and peace\nPsychiatrist and author Irvin Yalom proposed, \u201cIf we must die, if we constitute our own world, if each is ultimately alone in an indifferent universe, then what meaning does life have?\u201d\nAs one of the study participants said, life-threatening illness can \u201csuck the meaning out of life, making the person feel already lifeless.\u201d In facing death, we are faced with making sense of life, and it would appear that we make choices about how to live our lives until death. Therefore, anything that affirms life force, meaning and importance to others can counter the sense that death has made its claim.\nFrankl reminds us that we have the ability to choose how we respond regardless of our circumstance. This can be empowering even when facing death. The women in my study discussed the role of choice. One woman described using humor to help her cope with the chemotherapy. Another described an attitude of gratitude: \u201cI show gratitude more often. \u2026 It is liberating to know I can choose happiness.\u201d\nThe women spoke of feeling a sense of being part of a bigger, universal plan. In particular, they described feeling that a divine presence was actively participating in their illness. Some women in the study felt that their diagnosis was a wake-up call to be more present in their lives and to be closer to the transcendent. Each described a restoration process of reclaiming and redefining her life.\nOther women in the study believed that their spiritual faith gave them the strength to endure the changes brought about by their illness and its subsequent treatment. Interestingly, all of the women described experiencing a richer, more authentic life that a \u201cloving presence\u201d had transformed from the ashes of advanced cancer.\nAs counselors, we have an incredible opportunity to help support young women living with advanced breast cancer in the following ways.\nBody talk: We can help these women (and their partners) reconnect with their bodies in a healthy and empowering manner. We can talk about sexuality and recognize the role that it plays in our emotional, spiritual and physical well-being. To support premenopausal women who are living with advanced breast cancer, we need a greater understanding of their fears around rejection and increased recognition of the role that sexual intimacy plays in their lives. This is a focus of my current research.\nBittersweet friendships: We can validate the changes that occur in these women\u2019s friendships and offer grief work around these losses. We can help clients establish healthy boundaries in relationships that feel authentic and protective. In addition, we can promote the strengthening of those relationships that are nurturing and empowering.\nLegacy work: We can help clients cultivate strategies for legacy. Lillie Shockney, administrative director of the Johns Hopkins Breast Center, has written an exceptional book titled 100 Questions & Answers About Advanced and Metastatic Breast Cancer that helps clients and families navigate the challenges of advanced breast cancer. It also provides excellent ideas for being present and remembered beyond the cancer. In addition to her book, Shockney hosts exceptional retreats for families living with advanced breast cancer and provides a forum for discussion, connection and community to these patients and families.\nBeyond the pink ribbon: We can connect young women who have advanced breast cancer to communities that are validating and supportive. Wonderful online communities include Young Survivors Coalition (youngsurvival.org) and the Pink Daisy Project (pinkdaisyproject.com).\nFaith and justice: Facing death directly can be strangely comforting and empowering. However, counselors may be uncomfortable facilitating a candid dialogue that might be painful for their clients. Furthermore, counselors need to be open to their own discomfort in discussing death and dying. Counselors are encouraged to work from a conviction that they are helping rather than hurting clients by asking them to lean into the discomfort that comes from confronting one\u2019s death. These clients are faced with family members and friends who are reluctant or unable to join them on this journey of facing death. Counselors have the opportunity to embody the existential experience and join the client on this difficult journey. The essence of relational, embodied theology is not captured simply by the empathic presence of the counselor, nor the rites and rituals that inspire spiritual and psychological nourishment. The essence of embodying suffering is to give voice to marginalized persons and to tell their stories. Better still, counselors can be instrumental in nurturing the intrinsic divine wisdom that is present in all of us and empowering clients to tell their own stories.\nCheryl Fisher is a licensed clinical professional counselor in private practice in Annapolis, Maryland.

        "title": "Wait-listed: Budget woes blamed for delays serving people with brain injuries",
        "raw_content": "Wait-listed: Budget woes blamed for delays serving people with brain injuries\nCourtesy of Carol Albert\nCasey Albert\nThe phone call in September gave Carol Albert some hope: After years on a waiting list, her daughter Casey seemed poised to get a spot in a state program for people with brain injuries.\nThat would allow Casey, 23, to move into an apartment and have aides who could help address her needs. It would take some responsibility off Albert, who frequently misses work because of her daughter\u2019s needs and monitors Casey nearly constantly the rest of the time. And it couldn\u2019t come soon enough: Casey\u2019s mental and physical health are deteriorating, her mother said.\nBut after getting her daughter\u2019s paperwork and plans in order, Albert said she was told by the state Department of Social Services that Casey wasn\u2019t coming off the waiting list yet.\nAlthough the program had a waiting list of 25 people as of Jan. 28 and 13 open slots, department officials say they don\u2019t have the money or staff to serve 13 more people.\nWaiting lists are not uncommon in programs like the one the Alberts are waiting for, known as Medicaid waivers. But advocates have questioned whether the state is violating the terms of the brain injury waiver by not filling open slots, and one advocate has asked the federal government to intercede and force the state to fill them.\nThe state\u2019s Office of Protection and Advocacy for Persons with Disabilities has also raised concerns about people on the waiting list going unserved \u2013 particularly since there are another 98 slots that have been reserved for, but so far unfilled by, people already receiving other publicly funded services.\nTypically, when people are on wait lists, families provide care, said Nancy Alisberg, the office\u2019s managing attorney.\n\u201cIt can mean that caregivers have to quit jobs so that they can provide services. It means that people are usually not getting the services that they need and that they are entitled to,\u201d Alisberg said.\nOfficials at the Department of Social Services say the state is not obligated to fill all the slots. Still, they say they could begin filling one per month \u2013 if they have the money and get approval to outsource care management responsibilities in the program, something legislators rejected in December.\nThe dispute comes as Gov. Dannel P. Malloy\u2019s administration seeks deep cuts from state human service agencies to address a projected $570 million budget deficit and what officials characterize as an economy that can\u2019t support the type of state spending Connecticut has historically had.\nAlbert sees her daughter\u2019s care as a casualty of the state\u2019s tight budget: If the department doesn\u2019t fill the program, she said, there will be extra money to address the funding shortfall.\n\u201cIn the meantime, I\u2019m struggling,\u201d said Albert, who lives in Columbia and whose daughter has had a brain injury since age 5, the year after Albert\u2019s husband died. She said she told DSS officials, \u201cI\u2019m either going to end up institutionalized or my daughter will, because this is becoming way too much for me.\u201d\nThe handling of the state\u2019s program for people with brain injuries has been a major source of contention in recent years.\nThe program is a Medicaid waiver \u2013 an add-on to the Medicaid program that allows the state to cover people with specific needs who might not otherwise qualify. The federal government reimburses the state for a portion of the program\u2019s costs.\nWhile Medicaid is an entitlement, meaning the state must grant coverage to anyone who meets eligibility rules, states can limit the number of people served by Medicaid waivers. The waiver Casey Albert is wait listed for, for example, has 180 slots this year.\nBut whether the terms of the brain injury waiver allow the state to leave some of those slots unfilled has become one of the latest points of dispute between state officials and critics of the way they\u2019re handling the program.\nThe state actually has two waivers for people with acquired brain injuries, intended to help them live in the community.\nThe first began in 1999. As of 2014, it covered more than 340 people, spending an average of $96,382 per person. Another 49 people were on a waiting list; it could take them more than three years to receive services.\nAt the same time, some people with brain injuries, including some on the waiting list, were receiving services from the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, or DMHAS, at the state\u2019s full expense, about $10.5 million in 2014. Other people with brain injuries who weren\u2019t covered by the waiver were in nursing homes.\nIn 2014, DSS proposed a change: closing the existing brain injury waiver to new clients and creating a new one that could serve those whose services were paid for by DMHAS, allowing the state to get millions of federal dollars toward their care. It would also allow people in nursing homes to move into the community and cut down on the waiver\u2019s waiving list, officials said at the time.\nMany people with brain injuries and advocates opposed the plan, worried that it could jeopardize the original waiver, which must meet certain cost requirements under federal rules. And since many slots in the new waiver would be reserved for those already receiving services, critics charged that people already getting help would be taking spaces that could go to those who had been waiting.\nStill, the plan moved forward. This year, the new waiver has 180 slots, 139 of which are reserved for people who had been in nursing homes or receiving DMHAS-funded services. Currently, 41 of those 139 slots are filled, according to DSS.\nOf the 41 slots available to people like Casey Albert who are not in a nursing home or receiving DMHAS-funded services, 13 remain open.\nBy not filling those 13 slots, says Elaine Burns, president of the Connecticut Brain Injury Support Network, the state has violated the terms of the waiver.\n\u201cWe can\u2019t find the authority for them to manage it in this manner,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s crucial that at least those 13 people get services. They\u2019re just languishing.\u201d\nState officials have said there isn\u2019t money or staffing to fill the 13 slots \u2013 and they say DSS isn\u2019t obligated to make all the waiver slots available.\nSocial Services Commissioner Roderick L. Bremby wrote to Burns in December that funding for the new waiver depends on attrition from the original waiver. When the new waiver\u2019s budget was developed, he wrote, it was assumed that approximately 13 people would leave the old waiver each year.\nAnd Bremby and Benjamin Barnes, Malloy\u2019s budget director, wrote to Burns last month that while Medicaid waiver documents list the maximum number of people who will be served at a time, \u201ccapacity to fill any and all waiver slots is dependent on sufficient appropriation of the state share of funds for such slots.\u201d\nThey pointed to two other Medicaid waivers \u2013 one serving people with developmental disabilities and one, known as the Katie Beckett waiver, that serves children with severe disabilities \u2013 for which the number of people served is based on how much funding has been budgeted, not the number of slots allowed under the waiver.\nBurns has questioned both points. The documents for the two other waivers include language allowing the state to limit the number of participants to fewer than the maximum number of slots, while the acquired brain injury waiver does not, she said. And Burns said nothing in the new brain injury waiver indicates that its funding depends on attrition from the old waiver.\nAsked to point to the authority the state has to not fill all waiver slots, DSS spokesman David Dearborn said, \u201cA waiver is a permissive document and is not an entitlement.\u201d\nAs for the reserved slots, DSS officials said in a fact sheet dated Feb. 3 that since they are meant for people whose services are already publicly funded, reducing the number of reserved slots wouldn\u2019t free up funding to serve people on the waiting list.\nDSS: Linked to rejected outsourcing plan\nStill, that fact sheet indicated that the department could serve one new client per month through the new waiver \u2013 \u201cdependent on budget availability\u201d and upon approval of a plan to contract care management services to an outside agency.\nThe latter part refers to a proposal by the department to outsource care management in the program. Officials say it\u2019s necessary because the workload of DSS social workers has increased dramatically, and competing obligations with other work have made the social workers unable to perform annual reassessments of the program on a timely basis, as federal law requires. The department says it can\u2019t hire more social workers because of a hiring freeze and other budget constraints.\nBut legislators on the Human Services and Appropriations Committees \u2013 many of whom cited concerns about the process involved \u2013 rejected DSS\u2019 proposal in December. The department plans to seek approval again.\nBurns questioned the idea of linking the department\u2019s ability to fill slots to approval for the care management contract. She questioned whether staff were really as stretched as the department has said, and said that staffing shortages and a hiring freeze are within the ability of the administration to correct.\nAt a time of budget-cutting, would DSS have the funds to serve people on the waiting list, even if the care management plan were approved?\nOnce the department has a contract in place to outsource the care management, Dearborn said, \u201cWe are optimistic that funding will be available in current and future appropriations to support our proposal to add one person per month\u201d through the end of the year.",

        "raw_content": "Doomsday Religious Movements \u2013 Canadian Security Intelligence Service \u2013 Report # 2000/03 (December 18, 1999)\nThis paper uses open sources to examine any topic with the potential to cause threats to public safety or national security.\nOften overlooked in the discussion of emerging security intelligence issues is the challenge of contending with religious movements whose defining characteristic is an adherence to non-traditional spiritual belief systems. While only a small fraction of these groups could be considered Doomsday Religious Movements espousing hostile beliefs and having the potential to be violent, the threat they represent is evinced by recent events involving groups such as the American Branch Davidians, as well as Canada\u2019s Order of the Solar Temple. Japan\u2019s infamous Aum Shinrykio is a textbook example, where the coupling of apocalyptic beliefs and a charismatic leader fixated on enemies culminated in a nerve-gas attack intended to cause mass casualties in the hope of precipitating a world war and completing its apocalyptic prophecy. By examining the many characteristics of these movements, this paper intends to discuss which types of groups could be prone to violence and which factors indicate a group\u2019s move to actualize this violence. The conclusions presented here are solely the result of a review of unclassified information available in the public domain.\nAccording to relevant literature, \u201cmillennialism\u201d is the belief that human suffering will soon be eliminated in an imminent apocalyptic scenario, ensuring that the collective salvation of humanity is accomplished. Millennialism is an enduring pattern in many religious traditions, and it has been reported that 35 percent of Americans believe that the Apocalypse will take place at some point. Cults throughout history have thought that critical dates will bring the fulfillment of their beliefs (e.g. Solar Temple members believe in the supernatural power of solstices and equinoxes). The year 2000 AD as the turning of the millenium is a central date in the doctrines of many modern cults.\nMillennialist beliefs are shared by a variety of groups, but not all foresee a violent turning of the millennium; in fact, many see it as the catalyst for peaceful and harmonious change. Those groups which espouse violence have been called Doomsday Religious Movements in this paper for the purpose of clarity. The approaching year 2000 AD has stimulated millennial anxiety and heightened concern that its unfolding will bring an increase in potential threats by groups that would choose to assert their apocalyptic beliefs through violence.\nCharacteristics of Doomsday Religious Movements\nAlthough the large number of groups which could be considered a Doomsday Religious Movement presupposes a variety of beliefs, there are some commonalities in both doctrine and action which can be delineated in order to anticipate which groups might pose a physical threat to public safety.\nApocalyptic Beliefs: Movements often believe in doctrines which are similar to that of mainstream religions, yet the convergence of some of these doctrines expressed through rites helps to shape a violent theological world view characterized by an inherent volatility.\nDualism \u2013 The belief that the world is fractured into two opposing camps of Good and Evil, which confers a profound significance on small social and political conflicts as evidence of this great cosmic struggle, and which could precipitate a violent response.\nThe persecuted chosen \u2013 Movements view themselves as prophetic vanguards belonging to a chosen elite but feel persecuted by wicked and tyrannical forces, which push the group to make concrete preparations to defend their sacred status.\nImminence \u2013 Because movements believe the apocalypse is unfolding before their very eyes, the \u201clast days\u201d are experienced as psychologically imminent and pressure them to take immediate action to ensure their salvation.\nDeterminism \u2013 Since a group devoutly believes it will be the ultimate winner of the final battle, if it believes a catastrophic scenario is being actualized, the group may feel it has no choice but to try to trigger the apocalypse through violence.\nSalvation through conflict / enemy eradication \u2013 As salvation depends entirely upon direct participation in the apocalyptic struggle, a group is always on the verge of anticipating confrontation, which justifies action to eliminate evil and eradicate enemies.\nCharismatic Leadership: Millenarian beliefs are associated with volatility when embodied in and disseminated by charismatic leaders who wish to portray themselves as messiahs, identify the millennial destiny of humankind with their own personal evolution and demonize opposition to their personal aggrandizement.\nControl over members \u2013 Groups monopolize members\u2019 daily lives and circumscribe their belief systems within rigid doctrines, insulating them from the influence of broader social constraints. The leader is then well positioned to ask his followers to commit acts they would not normally engage in, albeit violent ones.\nLack of restraint \u2013 Leaders believe themselves to be free from religious and social laws, and operate in a social vacuum where there is a relative absence of normal institutionalized restraints to curb their whims. Physical segregation further distances the group from society\u2019s mores, where its own social code is established as the basis of all acceptable behaviour. Here authority can be exercised arbitrarily without restraint, a situation that facilitates violence.\nWithdrawal and mobilization\u2013 While society is often repelled by or hostile to these groups, movements are also often suspicious of others. This tends to lead to their physical, social and psychological withdrawal, intensifying a leader\u2019s power and increasing the homogenization and dependency of the followers. When withdrawal is coupled with the group\u2019s expectation that it will face hostility and persecution, members often feel they must mobilize for \u201cendtimes\u201d by acquiring weapons and securing defences.\nActions by Authorities: Violence is often not actualized until the group comes into contact with state authorities, which usually embody all that is evil for the movement and which must be vanquished in order for the apocalyptic scenario to be realized. Action on the part of state agencies will almost always elicit a reaction, which underlining the delicacy with which the situation must be handled.\nLack of comprehension \u2013 Authorities often fail to appreciate the leverage they have over doomsday movements, which depend upon them to fulfill their apocalyptic scenarios. Failure to fully comprehend this symbolic role often results in actions that trigger violence.\nUnsound negotiation \u2013 Should authorities decide to intervene in a crisis situation, negotiators dealing with the movement must understand its belief structure, as ignorance of the minor differences between the beliefs of respective groups can have drastic outcomes.\nHasty action \u2013 Hasty actions can directly trigger violence on the part of the group by forcing it to act out its \u201cendtimes\u201d scenario, especially when its grandiose apocalyptic scenario appears discredited under humiliating circumstances.\nSpiral of amplification \u2013 Sanctions applied by authorities are often interpreted by a movement as hostile to its existence, which reinforces their apocalyptic beliefs and leads to further withdrawal, mobilization and deviant actions, and which in turn elicits heavier sanctions by authorities. This unleashes a spiral of amplification, as each action amplifies each reaction, and the use of violence is facilitated as the group believes that this will ultimately actualize its doomsday scenario.\nThe presence of these three factors (apocalyptic beliefs, charismatic leadership and actions by authorities), whether inherent to the dynamics of a Doomsday Religious Movement or in response to the actions that it engages in, translates into a predisposition towards violent behaviour.\nThe Threat to Public Safety\nIt is difficult to ascertain the potentially violent behaviour and threats to public safety which some movements could represent, since there exists little information about the demographics or attributes of these movements or their members in Canada. This is exacerbated by the ambiguity which surrounds Doomsday Religious Movements: their motives are often not initially comprehensible, their actors not readily identifiable and their methods are difficult to predict. Despite these difficulties, the inherent volatility and unpredictability of some millennialist cults is a cause for concern because any could pose a realistic threat to public safety almost overnight.\n1. Threat to democratic governance: This threat emerges when movements associate abstract enemies with concrete state entities; when combined with volatile beliefs, this encourages a blatant disregard for the law and overt revolt against the state. The integrity of democratic governance is severely undercut because the methods of these groups end with attacks, subtle or not, on government credibility. A public perception emerges that the government cannot meet its primary raison d\u2019\u00eatre, namely, the protection of the people.\n2. Weapons Acquisition\nFirearms \u2013 In Canada, stricter gun control laws prevent an accumulation of weapons comparable to the US situation, where groups justify the stockpiling of firearms through their interpretation of the US constitutional right to bear arms. However, this does not preclude their acquisition through illegal channels, as demonstrated by the case of the Order of the Solar Temple (see below).\nExplosives \u2013 The possession of explosives poses an equal, if not greater, threat than do firearms. Given this consideration, it is plausible that a sophisticated bomb-maker could focus on the mass murder of non-group members. Situated in the middle of a continuum of destructive capability, explosives possessed by groups represent mass murder waiting to happen.\nChemical and biological weapons \u2013 A still greater threat is the acquisition and use of chemical and biological weapons. It is feared that some doomsday-like groups may have mastered the production of biological agents, while the Aum cult manufactured and deployed chemical weapons. Marking the dawn of a \u201cNew Age,\u201d Aum\u2019s vast biological and chemical stockpiles included, respectively, significant amounts of botulinum toxin, one of the most powerful poisons, and hundred of tons of deadly sarin nerve gas ingredients. Although the chances that a group will both acquire and deploy these weapons are slim, the Aum case proves that it is within the range of possible action.\n3. Institutional Infiltration\nPolitics \u2013 Bribery has been one costly method of building mainstream political support; the Aum cult allegedly bribed Russian officials in exchange for a series of \u201cfavours\u201d. Another potential threat lies in members who are already involved in the political process; the Solar Temple\u2019s roster included the mayor of a Canadian town and a provincial government official. The most direct political linkages concern efforts to exert direct influence over political processes. Both the Aum leader and the head of a Peruvian Doomsday Religious Movement, the Israeli Mission of the New Universal Fact (not associated with the Government of Israel in any way), have campaigned for electoral office.\nBusiness \u2013 Businesses owned by groups can both facilitate weapons acquisition and drive membership growth; the Aum cult\u2019s multimillion dollar empire financed the purchase of weapons, justified the possession of ingredients for chemical and biological weapons, and provided a legitimate vehicle for widespread recruitment. Also, the position a member occupies in an established enterprise can augment the potential threat; several Solar Temple members were senior employees of a public utility, whose access to sensitive systems could have crippled the provision of a much-needed service.\n4. Criminal Activity\nCrimes against individuals \u2013 Crimes against individuals not affiliated with the state may indirectly enable the above threats. Documented crimes include successful attempts to \u201csilence\u201d opposition from non- and ex-members, while alleged crimes finance weapons acquisition. These acts undermine the state\u2019s ability to identify and respond to dangerous groups, where the ultimate costs of such crimes are public safety and, thereby, the legitimacy of government.\nTransnational criminal activity \u2013 The final category of threats pivots around alleged involvement in transnational crime. The Solar Temple purportedly laundered money and trafficked in arms and illegal drugs, while Aum Shinrykio allegedly supplied illegal drugs to transnational organized crime syndicates. If these reports are correct, any possible threats to public safety are magnified.\nIdentifying the Threat\nDoomsday Religious Movements often provide both verbal and tangible early warning signs that are symptomatic of a group\u2019s volatility and propensity for violence. The challenge for government and law enforcement is to note those early-warning signs as a group shifts from a \u201cpreoccupation with enemies\u201d to \u201cenemy eradication\u201d, i.e. from belief to action. Such early- warning signs include:\n1. Intensification of illegal activities \u2013 This early-warning sign is most often a noticeable increase in the illegal procurement of weapons, which often attracts the attention of locals, and signals that the group may be making the final preparations for its destiny in the cosmic battle of all time. This occurred at Waco, Texas, before the confrontation with law enforcement agencies unfolded.\n2. Humiliating circumstances \u2013 Should a group be humiliated to the extent that either its leader or apocalyptic scenario appears discredited, for example, if its prophecies fail to actualize by a set date or if group leaders are arrested on minor charges, then it may try to counter this defamation by violently introducing its vision.\n3. Relocation to a rural area \u2013 This indicates both a physical and psychological withdrawal, which usually precipitates the strengthening of group solidarity and increased control over members. A relocation betrays a group\u2019s desire to carry out either the defence preparations or violent acts called for by its scripted scenario.\n4. Increasingly violent rhetoric \u2013 This may indicate that the group has reached a level of critical \u201cfervour\u201d and is ready to take the first step towards actualizing its rhetoric and triggering an apocalyptic scenario.\n5. Struggle for leadership \u2013 Owing to the unstable nature of the leadership and the volatility of the group, any situation which threatens the leader\u2019s control could result in violence. Examples include the challenging of group beliefs by dissidents and the questioning of the leader\u2019s physical health. All of these put the power of the leadership in question, and, by extension, its fundamental apocalyptic vision.\nAnnex I presents a brief table summarizing the preceding characteristics and serves as a quick reference guide.\nA Canadian Example \u2013 the Order of the Solar Temple\nThe Order of the Solar Temple was a group espousing millennialist beliefs which met the preceding criteria of a Doomsday Religious Movement. The Order had members in the US, Quebec, Switzerland and France; in 1994, fifty-four members committed mass suicide. The group was composed of several leaders who were very charismatic and expert public speakers, and who also had aggrandized beliefs about themselves. They believed in an imminent ecological apocalypse, where members were the \u201cchosen ones\u201d to repopulate the earth after its demise, but not before they had been persecuted on the earthly plane by non-believers. Other attributes typical of a Doomsday Religious Movement were the high degree of control exercised over members, the promotion of bigamy within the group, and the physical withdrawal to a rural area. The alleged criminal activities of the Solar Temple (money laundering, drug and arms trafficking) were clear threats to public safety, as was the infiltration of political and business circles by several members.\nThe Solar Temple mobilized for their coming apocalypse by acquiring weapons and money. This prompted several high-profile investigations and arrests which could have hastened the suicide. This was an early warning sign: a humiliating circumstance running counter to their supposed glorious salvation before the onslaught of the apocalypse. Other events which could have enhanced the feeling of humiliation included: an investigation initiated by the public utility into the Order\u2019s infiltration of their company; the near bankruptcy of the Order and the loss of investor capital; then, negative media attention. Finally, other early- warning signs immediately preceded the mass suicide and signalled that their potential for violence could be soon realized: a recent change in leadership; the failing health of one of the leaders; and foreboding, violent statements made by members.\nThe violence of the incident left 48 people dead in Switzerland and five in Quebec. Had the group believed that its salvation was tied to a direct conflict with the \u201cenemy\u201d and the leaders opted for \u201cenemy eradication\u201d rather than escape via mass suicide, the risk to members of the public would have been serious.\nConclusions \u2013 Continuing Threats to Canada\nThe irrationality which underlines the threat posed by Doomsday Religious Movements constitutes a different threat to public safety than that posed by the calculated terrorism traditionally manifested in the last 50 years, usually in support of an identified political cause. One estimation indicates that there are 1,200 active cults throughout the world, and that roughly 400 subscribe to doomsday philosophies which foresee catastrophe on or around the year 2000. While it is not known which cults have the potential for violence, this does not imply that possible threats posed by Doomsday Religious Movements should be ignored, as they can quickly manifest themselves in a variety of forms. Rather, there clearly is a continuing threat potential, given the temporal inaccuracies of the turning of the millennium (various scientific and religious accounts offer competing evidence as to when the new millennium will actually begin) and the tendency for groups to be unpredictable and give early-warning signs of their potential for violence, as well as ambiguities in their structure, dynamics and attributes.\nThe Apocalyptic Cult Checklist\nApocalyptic Beliefs * dualism * the persecuted chosen * imminence * determinism * salvation through conflict Charismatic Leadership * control over members * lack of restraint * withdrawal Actions by Authorities * lack of comprehension * unsound negotiation * hasty action * spiral of amplification\nDemocratic GovernanceWeapons Acquisition * firearms * explosives * chemical / biological weapons Institutional Infiltration * political * business Criminal Activity * crimes against individuals * transnational crime\n* Intensification of illegal activities * Humiliating circumstances * Relocation to a rural area * Increasingly violent rhetoric * Struggle for leadership\nAnnex II References and Suggested Reading\nThe Center for Millennial Studies www.mille.org <http://www.mille.org>\nCult Awareness and Information Centre www.caic.org.au <http://www.caic.org.au>\nwww.csj.org <http://www.csj.org>\nFactNet www.factnet.org <http://www.factnet.org>\nInfo-Cult www.infocult.org <http://www.cesnur.org/testi/www.infocult.org>\nOntario Consultants on Religious Tolerance www.religioustolerance.org <http://www.religioustolerance.org>\nBainbridge, William S.

We\u2019ll get to discuss them in detail on the day(17th July), so maybe I\u2019ll post some more thoughts about them then, but I thought I\u2019d put some initial ideas down now. I haven\u2019t got round to reading the Cope poetry yet, so this will just be about the McEwan and Jackson, starting with the McEwan, since I read that first. To be frank with you, I was so ready for something speedy and easy to read, as \u20181599\u2019 James Shapiro and \u2018Defying Hitler\u2019 Sebastian Haffner are both interesting books, but ones which require your full attention, whereas with the McEwan I could finish it in a couple of hours. It\u2019s about Florence and Edward and their wedding night and how things not said and not done can have an eff ect just as things actually done. Although I enjoyed the book, it won\u2019t be on any of my \u2018must-read\u2019 lists because, despite the novella (it really is pretty short) being beautifully written, the plot is not overly enthralling. In fact, the story itself didn\u2019t keep my hanging on edge, desperate to find out what happens and, as my friend Georgia put it, you get the feeling it might have been just as good, if not better, as a short story without all the backstory surrounding Edward and Florence.\nIn contrast to this, the Jackson was certainly a cliffhanger. In fact, I was half way through when going to bed on Sunday and got so wrapped up that I finished the book in one sitting, even though I was pretty tired for school the next day. I have to say, I was dubious at first. considering how the book started: \u201cMy name is Mary Katherine Blackwood. I am eighteen years old, and I live withmy sister Constance. I have often thought that with any luck at all I could have been born a werewolf, because the two middle fingers on both my hands are the same length, but I have had to be content with what I had. I dislike washing myself, and dogs, and noise. I like my sister Constance, and Richard Plantagenent, and Amanita phalloides, the death-cup mushroom. Everyone else in my family is dead.\u201d Saying that, although I was doubtful, who wouldn\u2019t want to carry on reading after that? And that is exactly how the book continues. Part of your brain murmurs: \u201cBut this is crazy, who would write this?\u201d while the rest shouts \u201cTHIS IS SO DISTURBING WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT?\u201d I found the afterword by Joyce Carol Oates especially interesting, as it drew on the parallels between Jackson\u2019s book and \u2018The Turn of the Screw\u2019 Henry James which I\u2019ve just finished doing as part of my English AS Level. In both novellas the narrators are unreliable and their thoughts reveal much more about them than their actions. In both one becomes caught up with their way of seeing the world, and yet I felt more drawn to Merricat in \u2018We Have Always Lived in the Castle\u2019 than the governess in \u2018The Turn of the Screw\u2019 as she felt stronger, and less pathetic, although a lot more creepy.\nMy conclusion is that Jackson\u2019s book is definitely worth a read, and I might try and find some more to read by her, whereas, though I don\u2019t regret reading McEwan\u2019s book, the feeling of anticipation and suspense wasn\u2019t there. Of course, Jackson\u2019s is gothic and of a very different genre to McEwan\u2019s, but I still feel like the plot wasn\u2019t as exciting in \u2018On Chesil Beach\u2019. However, one similarity I did notice between the two books is that they both deal with past events and their impact upon people\u2019s lives. Although in my title today Shakespeare gives wise advice that we should not dwell on the past as we can\u2019t change it, these books demonstrate that sometimes looking back is unavoidable, as the bygone actions cast long shadows.\nThanks again to everyone who reads this!

        "raw_content": "There is a growing trend amongst amateur cyclists to take their training to a higher level. Where power meters used to be exclusive for professional cyclists, it is now becoming a standard equipment for amateurs. It all started with the heart rate monitors and train in certain fitness zones, but now the most asked question is how many watts you can push for 5 minutes.\nAnother trend we\u2019ve seen is altitude training camps, which can be useful to prepare for a special event or Gran Fondo with lots of vertical climbing. Living and training for a couple of weeks on high altitude has been the key preparation for any Grand Tour winner of the last decades. And we\u2019ve all read the stories about young Nairo Quintana living above 3,200 meters and take his bike to school every day made him the best climber in the world. Since we are based in Bogot\u00e1, one of the highest capital cities in the world, we know all about training in high altitude. And next to that, we also organize altitude training camps in Medellin. So we thought it would be nice to take a closer look at the effects of high altitude training.\nAltitude training works because of the difference in atmospheric pressure between sea level and high altitude. At sea level, air is denser and there are more molecules of gas per litre of air. Regardless of altitude, air is composed of 21% oxygen and 78% nitrogen. As the altitude increases, the pressure exerted by these gases decreases. Therefore, there are fewer molecules per unit volume: this causes a decrease in partial pressures of gases in the body, which elicits a variety of physiological changes in the body that occur at high altitude. The body may acclimate to the relative lack of oxygen in one or more ways such as increasing the mass of red blood cells and hemoglobin, or altering muscle metabolism. Proponents claim that when such athletes travel to competitions at lower altitudes they will still have a higher concentration of red blood cells for 10\u201314 days, and this gives them a competitive advantage.\nRoad bike tours in Colombia\nOther mechanisms have been proposed to explain the utility of altitude training. Not all studies show a statistically significant increase in red blood cells from altitude training. One study explained the success by increasing the intensity of the training (due to increased heart and respiration rate). This improved training resulted in effects that lasted more than 15 days after return to sea level.\nAnother set of researchers claim that altitude training stimulates a more efficient use of oxygen by the muscles. This efficiency can arise from numerous other responses to altitude training, including angiogenesis, glucose transport, glycolysis, and pH regulation, each of which may partially explain improved endurance performance independent of a greater number of red blood cells. Furthermore, exercising at high altitude has been shown to cause muscular adjustments of selected gene transcripts, and improvement of mitochondrial properties in skeletal muscle\nSo now that we know what happens to the body at high altitude training, we can focus on the different types of training. In short, there are two well-known principles: Live High Train High (LHTH) and Live High Train Low (LHTL).\nLive high, train high\nLive high, train high is the traditional altitude training technique where athletes relocate to a high altitude camps or areas to both live and train. Decades of clinical data on LHTH demonstrate that it improves performance at high altitude, but should be within the following limits:\nLive and train within the optimum altitude window of 2,100-2500 m (6,890-8,200 ft).\nThis altitude range is a balance between maintaining high enough elevation to induce red blood cell generation and low enough altitude to not significantly reduce training performance and recovery\nDo not attempt your sea-Level training regimen in high altitude\nHigh altitude places limitations on your body that simply prevent you from reaching your sea-level training regiment, as measured by a combination of training intensity and volume. Training in high altitude also produces more lactic acid, which will reduce EPO in your blood and potentially stunt your ability to acclimatize.\nLive and train at high altitude for a minimum of 28 Days.\nThis is the minimum amount of time required for red blood cell concentrations to significantly increase and for other biological benefits to be acquired.\nIt is unclear whether or not LHTH is beneficial to athletes competing at sea level. Scientists cite detraining effects, humidity de-adaptation, and effects on cardiac output as factors that may offset its sea-level performance benefits. As scientists have discovered that these performance-decreasing factors are specific to LHTH, the athletic trend is shifting towards its new and improved version live high, train low (LHTL).\nLive high, train low\nThe theory behind this regime is that the body will acclimatize to altitude by living high, whilst training intensity can be maintained by training low. Hence, the beneficial effects of altitude exposure are harnessed whilst some of the negative ones are avoided. However, residence at altitude must be for more than 12 hours per day. A non-training elevation of 2,100\u20132,500 meters (6,900\u20138,200 ft) and training at 1,250 meters (4,100 ft) or less has shown to be the optimal approach for altitude training. This makes Colombia with cities like Bogot\u00e1 and Manizales a perfect location for altitude training camps.\nWith this technique, improvements in sea-level performance have been shown in events lasting between 8 and 20 minutes. And interestingly, athletes of all abilities are thought to benefit.\ncycling training camp in Medellin Colombia\nSo, if you are looking to improve your performance on high altitude challenges, the Live-high, train-high principle seems to be the best preparation. While if you\u2019re looking for a performance improvement on a sea-level event, the Live-high, train-low principle would work out best for you.\nAt Cyclot\u00e1 we can organize both types of training camps, thanks to the Andes mountain range in our backyard. Train on your desired altitude and live in some of the best hotels Colombia has to offer.\nBook your altitude training camp now",

        "raw_content": "Home FAMILY 10 Tips for Photographing Landscapes\n10 Tips for Photographing Landscapes\nIf you\u2019ve been following our photography series, chances are that you have a new DSLR and young children that you want to photograph. Landscape photography may or may not be on your radar yet. But at some point, you\u2019re bound to take a trip to the mountains or come across a beautiful ocean. You\u2019ll look over at your camera and think, \u201cwell as long as we\u2019re here, I might as well take a few photos.\u201d\nBefore that day comes, there\u2019s a few things that you need to know about landscape photography. For one, it\u2019s very different from portrait photography, but that\u2019s just the start of it. Today\u2019s post uncovers 10 tips to photographing landscapes.\n#1. Time of Day\nGreat landscape photography applies many of the same rules we use with portrait photography. It takes great planning, preparation and patience to get just the right shot. You can spend all the time in the world worrying about the right gear, focal lengths or f-stops, but if you forgot to check the weather forecast or didn\u2019t time your photos appropriately, you may be disappointed in the final outcome.\nWe recommend shooting an hour after sunrise or before sunset. The sun is much lower in the sky and therefore, offers much longer and softer shadows. The light also provides a warmer color which can make your landscape scene look much more inviting than a scene captured during the midday sun.\nWhat you\u2019ll want to do is arrive on location well before that \u201cgolden hour\u201d to set yourself up (tripod, camera, filters, etc). Then wait for the light. We promise, it\u2019s worth it.\n#2. Use a Wide Angle Lens\nWide-angle lenses and landscape photography go hand-in-hand since they allow you to get more of a scene into the frame. If you\u2019re shooting with a full frame camera, this means a focal length shorter than 50mm. If you\u2019re shooting with a cropped sensor camera, this means anything shorter than a 35mm. However, the most popular wide angle lenses would be those with a 21 or 24mm focal length. For that matter, you can even bring out your 18-55mm kit lens, but we prefer prime lenses since they tend to produce much sharper images.\n#3. Composition\nWhen we talk about composition, the first thing that comes to mind is the \u201cRule of Thirds.\u201d Using the rule of thirds is simple, but effective, whether you\u2019re shooting landscapes, portraits or anything in between. When you\u2019re composing an image, imagine that it\u2019s divided up into three equal horizontal sections and three vertical sections. Then, as you frame your shot, try to arrange key elements along one of the lines or \u201cthirds.\u201d Where possible, position important features where the lines intersect each other.\nUsing the rule of thirds can turn what could easily be a snapshot into a work of art. Alternatively, you could go for a symmetrical composition. If you go this route, be sure to pay special attention to every little detail so that the image is balanced and free of any distractions.\nYou could also shift the balance of the image to an extreme. For example, maybe you shoot a tiny piece of land with the main focus of the image being on the beautiful sky above. These types of shots can create a lot of drama and visual appeal. For added effect, use an individual or couple to add an emotional element to your image.\n#4. Include Foreground Interest\nOne of the most common mistakes people make when photographing landscapes is not including visual interest within the foreground of the image. We get all excited to see a beautiful ocean or mountain view and forget about photographing what\u2019s right in front. In fact the foreground can often be what draws our eye upward to whatever it is that initially grabbed our interest enough to pick up our camera.\nForeground interest can improve your landscape photos in a number of ways beyond just filling an empty space. For one, it can give the viewer a sense of scale. But it also helps train the viewer\u2019s eye to move around the image from near to middle to far, allowing the viewer to feel as though they were there with you.\nWhen you\u2019re photographing a landscape, consider the scene and what might be nearby to include in the foreground of your composition. Details such as gates, signs, flowers, rocks or branches can make for a beautiful foreground.\nAlso consider how you might use the foreground to create leading lines. Streams, footpaths, fences and walls that extend into your landscape will draw the viewers eyes into the photo. Alternatively, an empty foreground can also create impact. Rather than looking for something to put into an image just to take up space, the use of positive space to direct the viewer\u2019s attention towards the main focus of the image can be quite useful.\n#5. Use a Tripod\nThe easiest way to achieve sharp, shake-free landscape images is by using a tripod. Pair that tripod with a remote shutter release so that you can trigger the shutter without touching the camera. If you don\u2019t have a remote, you can also use your camera\u2019s self timer.\n#6. Shoot Vertically\nWhen shooting landscapes, for some reason, we all seem to think that we\u2019re limited to shooting in landscape (horizontal) mode. And while shooting horizontally will most often be the best option for landscapes, don\u2019t forget to turn your camera vertically every once in a while. If you\u2019re not sure whether or not an image will look best in landscape or portrait mode, then shoot both.\n#7. Don\u2019t Rush\nLandscape photography simply can\u2019t be rushed. Shooting a brilliant landscape photo takes time. Be sure to allow yourself plenty of time to choose your location, set up, and allow yourself plenty of time to move around and shoot from a variety of angles.\nIf you must bring the family, consider choosing a location that will allow them to explore and play in their own way. Bring along some simple activities such as sidewalk chalk or bubbles, or scope out a location that has a playground close by. Even better, just leave them at home.\n#8. Proper Exposure\nOne of the trickier things about landscape photography is properly exposing the entire image, especially considering that the land and the sky are normally very different in terms of how they need to be exposed. For example, if you meter for the sky, the land portion of your image will likely be too dark; if you meter for the land, the sky\u2019s highlights will likely be blown out.\nThere are 2 possible ways to control your exposure in this situation: HDR and graduated filters.\nHigh Dynamic Range (HDR) involves taking multiple exposures (at least 3) and merging them together in post-processing. One exposure for the brightest part of the image (sky), one for the darkest areas (land) and then one somewhere in between. If you\u2019re going to attempt HDR, you definitely need a tripod.\nGraduated Neutral Density filters are another way to control your exposure in camera versus post-processing. These filters are kind of like putting a pair of sunglasses on your camera, but only on the brightest part so that your camera sees a compressed range at the same exposure. Graduated filters work best when there is a well-defined horizon between the land and the sky.\n#9. Use a Narrow Aperture\nIn order to get the foreground, background and everything in the middle of a landscape photo sharp and in focus, you must use a narrow aperture (f/22). You may even want to go back to aperture priority mode while you get the hang of using a narrow aperture versus the wide apertures you may have been using to photograph your children. Just be sure to pay attention to your histogram to retain your highlights.\nAnd while you\u2019re at it, use as low an ISO as possible. This combination definitely requires a tripod.\n#10. Don\u2019t forget to Edit\nThe photography world has mixed opinions about whether or not to edit landscape photos. There are those who prefer to capture everything in camera and be true to the reality in which they captured. These photographers see any significant editing as cheating. Others will take their photos to the other extreme.\nWe\u2019re not suggesting you do one thing or another. Your photos are your photos and you should do with them whatever you want. However, in order to get the most out of your photos, shoot in RAW rather than JPEG. RAW images allow much greater control in editing, and can make all the difference in turning a decent shot into a brilliant photograph. We\u2019ll talk more about RAW versus JPEG in a future post.\nThere\u2019s certainly a lot more to photographing landscapes, so if this area of photography interests you, be sure to practice and keep reading as much as you can on the subject.\nFor more photography tutorials, check out Shooting in Manual: Step-by-Step.\nPhoto Credit: Ashley Sisk, Nicolas Raymond, Randen Pederson and Kain Kalju\nPrevious articleLourdes Fashions: Fall/Winter 2014\nNext article8 Reasons to Leave Your Camera at Home\nAffordable Fertility Treatments are Finally Here\nGetting Over The Shyness Of Mind-Blowing Sex\nExploring the World With Science: Water Cycle",

        "title": "Writers Who Have Influenced Me\u2013J. R. R. Tolkien | David Carrico Fiction",
        "raw_content": "If there is a single author on this planet whose name is more widely known than that of J. R. R. Tolkien, I have no idea who it would be. He is an incredibly important author in the history of 20th century literature. In fact, author and fellow professor Tom Shippey presents a case for Professor Tolkien being the most important writer of the 20th century. J. R. R. Tolkien perhaps almost single-handedly is responsible for the rise of fantasy as a popular genre in the second half of the century. Talk about casting a giant shadow\u2014the man did, and still does, even though he died in 1973.\nJohn Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in 1892. His Wikipedia article does a rather nice biography, so I\u2019ll not repeat any of that. And I don\u2019t want to spend much time talking about Tolkien\u2019s writing career. There are numerous articles about that as well. Instead, I want to consider J. R. R. Tolkien from a personal viewpoint\u2013how he touched me first as a reader and later as a writer.\nI first discovered J. R. R. Tolkien in 7th grade. I was omnivorously devouring all the science fiction and fantasy I could find in my local library, and had just recently discovered the science fiction section in the adult stacks. Among the volumes in that section were three books by Tolkien: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King (a/k/a The Lord of the Rings). This would have been early 1964, so I was 12 years old. This was before the paperback editions were available, so these were the big hardback volumes published by Houghton Mifflin, with the big foldout maps in the back.\nNow, I didn\u2019t know anything about trilogies. I\u2019d never seen one before. I had no idea that it was possible to write a story arc that would continue across multiple volumes. So guess what happened. Right. I read them out of order. I read the last volume first, then the first volume in the middle, and the middle volume last. I was so confused. It was a few months later before I figured out what had happened, which caused me to reread them in the correct order. Things made a lot more sense the second time around. (For what it\u2019s worth, I did the same thing the first time I read Isaac Asimov\u2019s Foundation Trilogy, with much the same result.)\nAs a reader, I was gobsmacked. First of all, the story was huge. (Approximately 450,000 words. For comparison, Tolstoy\u2019s War and Peace is about 600,000 words.) This was the first time I had encountered a story arc that ran for more than a single volume, and the scope that allowed Tolkien to adopt just astounded me. I fell in love with the sheer size of the story, and all the detail that it allowed Tolkien to present. I had read The Hobbit not long before that, and while I had enjoyed it, it absolutely did not grab me like the trilogy did. Secondly, even as a young reader, Tolkien\u2019s world building just enraptured me. Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Ents, and the casual mention of thousands of years of recorded history\u2013I ate it all up and cried out for more. Third, when the Ballantine paperback editions came out the following year and I was able for the first time to read the Appendices that were available in that edition of The Return of the King, I was in heaven. I was already a bit of a history geek, but I had never encountered a fictional history before, and that just pushed all my buttons. I still remember the \u201cWow\u201d I felt the first time I finished reading the Appendices.\nI read the trilogy twelve times cover to cover over the ensuing eight years, and who knows how many times I reread my favorite passages\u2013probably forty, at least. And it very quickly became my answer to the question\u2013you know, the one that goes \u201cIf you were marooned on a desert island and could only have one book, which one would it be?\u201d No thought required: The Lord of the Rings. And truth to tell, that is still my answer today.\nI became moderately knowledgeable about the details of the story. I knew more LOTR trivia than anyone I knew, although I was never in the running for all-time LOTR trivia geek. I used the tables in the Appendices to translate the rune bands on the title pages of the individual books. (If you didn\u2019t know there were messages in those rune bands, then you\u2019re not as big a fan as you thought you were.) When Caedmon Records put out the spoken arts recordings of Tolkien reading some of his material, and the Donald Swann song cycle based on Tolkien\u2019s poems (The Road Goes Ever On), I bought those immediately. And for a long time I had a copy of every American edition of both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, but I finally had to give that up when my Tolkien collection was taking up over half the space I had for books. (Nowadays I just have a copy of each textual edition, plus most of the limited deluxe editions. That\u2019s at least six copies of The Hobbit\u2013including the original 1938 first American edition\u2013and at least four copies of LOTR.)\nThe Lord of the Rings became the standard against which I measured everything I read, and not much compared well to it. I grew very tired of the constant advertising comparisons \u201cThe greatest book since The Lord of the Rings.\u201d It took me a while to become a little more balanced in my evaluations of other writers and other books. And oddly enough, the first book that really broke through was Frank Herbert\u2019s Dune, which was a very different book indeed, but had some of the same sense of huge scale and exceptional world building. So even today, due to the influence of Tolkien, my favorite books all feature outstanding world building.\nI finally decided to write in 1978. Tolkien influenced me there as well, and in much the same way. I wanted (and still want) to tell stories involving right and wrong, I wanted to tell stories on grand scales, and I wanted to tell stories against great world building. I\u2019ll never equal J. R. R. Tolkien, especially in the last category, because I can\u2019t spend twenty years working on a single story idea like he did. But I can try.\nI reread LOTR not long ago, for the first time in a lot of years. It held up extremely well, although I found myself critiquing the writing much more than I had ever done before. Side-effect of being a professional writer myself, I guess. When I was done, I decided that while J. R. R. Tolkien was a really good story teller, there were others who are just as good, if not better. But no other writer will ever affect me as he did.",

You must change and become like little children. If you don\u2019t do this, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. The greatest person in the kingdom of heaven is the person that makes himself humble like this child.\u201d (Matthew 18)\nAwakening is not something you can convince yourself of or think yourself into.

        "title": "\"Tebowing\" Is Now An Official English Word, Except It's Probably Not",
        "raw_content": "\"Tebowing\" Is Now An Official English Word, Except It's Probably Not\nLanguage desk\nWhen a person gets very famous, lots of companies want to put themselves in the news alongside that person. Which is why you're seeing a lot of Tim Tebow in unlikely sources these days. Today's entry: something called the Global Language Monitor says that \"Tebowing\" is now an accepted English word. Defined as \"the act of taking a knee in prayer during an athletic contest,\" Tebowing now takes its place alongside other the perfectly cromulent words in the English language, if a provocative press release is to believed.\nAs Global Language Monitor hoped, the press is running with it. Like USA Today, who loves a simplistic headline and calls this honor \"practically the equivalent of gaining acceptance to Webster's Dictionary.\" It's not, it's really not, not even the Unabridged, and that has all kinds of bullshit words.\nDo you know what Tebowing is? You probably do, because you're part of a very specific subset of the Anglosphere that watches American football and uses Tumblr. This doesn't make it a word (and there's no official process for making a word official anyway.) And just because the term has been used for five or so weeks now, that doesn't mean it's going to be officially welcomed by actual professional lexicographers who have nothing to gain by putting \"Tebow\" in a headline. Gatekeepers of language don't work that way:\nGraeme Diamond, principal editor of the New Words group at the Oxford English Dictionary, once said:\n\"People would be wrong if they thought of us typically reading something in the paper one day and sticking it into the dictionary the next. We want to resist putting ephemera in, because the OED never takes anything out.\nThere are plenty of reasons to question Tebowing's status as an \"official\" word. There's been very little formal research on slang, there's no agreement on when slang becomes word, and it wouldn't even really be \"Tebowing\" anyway, would it? It would be the verb form. This isn't a gerund, and it's not Tebow Part IV: The Tebowing.\nSo consider the source. Global Language Monitor does nothing but find another way to put the latest SEO bait headlines in a press release. Like how they hopped on the Michael Jackson death bandwagon. Or release their arbitrary college rankings two weeks before US News's. Or name buzzworthy \"words of the year,\" like recent winners occupy, Twitter, hybrid, and misunderestimate. Or most spectacularly, an attempt to count all the words in the English language. It's a scam at worst and quixotic at best, but hey, if we have \"quixotic\" maybe there's hope for a Tebownian eponym.\nSo when this company sends out a press release says Tebowing is a word, it gets trumpeted because people are eager to consume the cult of Tebow, and they don't really understand how language works. That's why there's a human being who actually askd if a word becomes official when it's added to UrbanDictionary.com. If so, say hello to A.J. Daulerio's own \"smoky tornado.\"\n[Photo from Westword]",

        "raw_content": "CorePower Yoga founder Trevor Tice\u2019s death officially ruled an accident\nThe founder of CorePower Yoga likely died after falling and repeatedly striking his head, according to a report from the San Diego Medical Examiner\u2019s Office released Thursday.\nOfficers found Trevor Tice dead in his California home Dec. 12 after his contractor, who was checking on him, found blood in the house, the report states. Tice was 48 and leaves behind a successful yoga franchise and young daughter.\nTice reportedly had a medical history of significant alcohol and prescription drug abuse. Toxicological studies show he might have been intoxicated when he fell and struck his head.\n\u201cHis immediate cause of death was his head injuries. \u2026 His liver disease could reasonably have contributed to a decreased ability to coagulate blood, and to increased bleeding from his injuries, and alone (absent the head injuries) could have resulted in death,\u201d the report states.\nSan Diego law enforcement said they were investigating Tice\u2019s death due to \u201csuspicious circumstances.\u201d The report released Thursday revealed dried blood was discovered throughout the house.\n\u201cThe San Diego Police Homicide Unit has completed its investigation into Tice\u2019s death and concur with the findings of the San Diego County Medical Examiner\u2019s Office,\u201d the police department said in a statement Thursday.\nTice grew up in Telluride. His family owns and operates Telluride Trappings & Toggery, the town\u2019s longest-standing clothing store. Tice opened the first CorePower Yoga studio on Grant Street in downtown Denver in 2002. During the last 14 years, the company expanded to more than 150 locations across 20 states.\nCorePower generated $45.2 million in revenue in 2012 and was on the path to eclipsing $100 million more recently, according to a 2015 Inc. article.\ncore power yoga, trevor tice, Opiates, Chris Herndon",

        "raw_content": "Produced by William Frye\nScreenplay by Blanche Hanalis\nBased on a novel by Jane Trahey\nBefore I start this review it\u2019s only fair that all you action adventure/horror/crime thriller fans please go on upstairs and avail yourselves of the refreshments provided. This isn\u2019t a review for you. Unless of course you\u2019ve got a daughter, younger sister or niece you want to spend time with but worry about what kind of movie you can watch together that hasn\u2019t got a bit of bad language and/or nudity. A movie that\u2019s actually fun to watch and promotes positive values. But also quite funny in its own way. Not Laugh-Out-Belly-Laugh-Loud but funny in that it\u2019s got a sharp take on how younger and older women interact in a setting that most of us never get to see.\n1966\u2019s THE TROUBLE WITH ANGELS takes place in a Catholic girls school over a period of four years where we watch the emotional and spiritual growth of two of the main characters: Mary Clancy (Haley Mills) and Rachel Devery (June Harding). The two girls are a perfect match: Mary\u2019s a born leader and Rachel is a born follower. As you watch their friendship develop and grow you can\u2019t help but think that maybe this is how Lucy Ricardo and Ethel Mertz would have been if they\u2019d met as young girls. We get an idea of how much of a problem Mary is going to be as in the first scene of the movie she\u2019s smoking a cigarette on the train taking her to The St. Francis Academy For Girls and mouths off to Bruce Wayne\u2019s Aunt Harriet herself (Madge Blake) The character is never identified by name but I like to think this is actually Aunt Harriet. Just the movie and comic book geek in me at working to make a connection, I guess.\nOnce Mary and Rachel arrive at St. Francis they meet the nuns who will be their teachers for the next four years: Sister Clarissa (Mary Wickes) is more at home on a basketball court or fixing a car engine than in the chapel. The impossibly beautiful Sister Constance (Camilla Sparv) is going off to work with a colony of lepers, an act that totally baffles Mary as she can\u2019t imagine anyone taking the risk of sacrificing such beauty. Sister Liguori (Marge Redmond) uses horse handicapping as the way to teach her girls mathematics. And there\u2019s a bunch of other nuns, all with their own eccentric traits but they\u2019re used as insights into their characters and not just as props. And then there\u2019s Reverend Mother (Rosalind Russell) who immediately clashes with Mary and a lot of the movie is about how these two very different women of very different ages in life and from very different backgrounds but so similar in attitude start out disliking each other immensely but grow to respect and admire the other. Reverend Mother\u2019s clashing with Mary soon turns into a war of wills as it seems as if Mary will simply not adhere to the rules of the school and indeed, goes out of her way to pull elaborate pranks that continually disrupt and cause chaos. There\u2019s a great scene where Reverend Mother is on the verge of expelling Mary from the school but has a talk with her old friend Sister Liguori that gives you the distinct impression that in their youth, Reverend Mother and Sister Ligouri weren\u2019t all that different from Mary and Rachel. Reverend Mother explains to her old friend why she won\u2019t expel Mary and the resolution of that scene had even an old grinch like me feeling a tug at the heart strings:\nThere isn\u2019t a plot in this movie to speak of. It\u2019s really a series of incidents that take place over the four years. But the transitions between one year and another are really imaginative due to the direction of Ida Lupino. Most of us know her as an actress but she\u2019s famous in Hollywood for being one of the first female directors. And a damn good director that earned her respect. Ida Lupino has shots where she shows the passing of seasons in unobtrusive yet innovative ways. A character will be bundled up in winter clothes and look out a window, see other characters playing volleyball and suddenly we\u2019re into the next year of school and its spring.\nHaley Mills is quite good is this movie. She was looking to break away from the image she had while working at Disney and while I\u2019m not familiar with her Disney work I liked what she did in this movie. I\u2019m also not all that familiar with Rosalind Russell but she was great as Reverend Mother. I enjoyed every moment she was on screen and she has a simply wonderful scene with Haley Mills where she talks about the life she wanted before she found her calling as a nun. If you see this movie, watch the expressions on both their faces. They convey far more than their words.\nSo should you see THE TROUBLE WITH ANGELS? Like I said earlier, if you\u2019re a mother looking to watch a movie with your daughters aged 8-12 or an aunt looking to spend time with your nieces, by all means, give this movie a try. It\u2019s got wonderful performances by Rosalind Russell, Haley Mills, Marge Redmond, Mary Wickes and a great cameo by Jim Hutton. It won\u2019t appeal to most of you bloodthirsty maniacs who normally read my reviews and are by now wondering what I\u2019m currently smoking, snorting or sniffing but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not worthy of viewing or respect. The next time you\u2019re looking for a movie to stream, give this one a try. It\u2019s a lot of fun for the audience it\u2019s intended for and even for those who want to step outside of their normal movie habits a bit.\nTags: Haley Mills, mary wickes, Rosalind RussellCategories: 1960s Comedy Movie, A Particular Favorite Of Mine, Comedy, You Clever Child, You\nPreviousThe Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor",

In the six years I\u2019ve been doing this, I\u2019m not anywhere near the wage that I used to be on when I was a copper.\u201d\nDan Tompkins \u2013 TesseracT\u2019s old vocalist who has become the new vocalist again.\nYou see, being a Police Officer is a job on a salary. It is a community need to have Police Officers. They are there to keep public order and to enforce the rules. Now, being a singer in a progressive rock band means that you are one of many in a crowded marketplace. There is no salary and no guaranteed income. Everyone needs to make a living, however you need to be in the industry for the music first. Money comes a distant second.\nSimply economics 101 dictates, when there is unlimited supply of a similar product, demand is low. When supply is limited, demand is high. At this point in time, there is a lot of new music coming out everyday.\nSo what are the fans going to latch onto?\nWe don\u2019t know, there is just too much noise, so we wait. Meanwhile that act is percolating, spreading slowly from city to city, country to country. But that takes time. In some cases, a lot of time.\nSo, it\u2019s time to bust a myth.\nBeing in a band is a financial struggle.\nBeing in a band with a label behind you is also a financial struggle, unless you are in the one percent of acts that cross over. The label will give you an advance that they will need to recoup from sales, touring, etc. However if you are in a band and you have an audience that cares, you can monetize that audience so that life is not a financial struggle.\nIn today\u2019s market, the audience needs to go and find you. The hype and marketing of the past doesn\u2019t work anymore.\nTesseracT is a good band who are good musicians and songwriters. However, the big money-oriented labels find these kinds of acts no longer acceptable, unless they start making millions on an indie label.\nIt\u2019s just a shame that so many fall by the wayside because there\u2019s just too much saturation. It\u2019s always been that way. There\u2019s plenty of good music, it\u2019s just in different places than the equivalent of what being on the radio used to be.\nBeing an artist means that you have to work for free and if you have worked for free and have built up an audience, then it\u2019s up to you to monetize them. Normally, the record label would enter at this point in time. However, the myth of the label as the hero is greatly exaggerated. I remember the transitional period in the early 80s after MTV broke and made everyone a star and music become a sales driven vehicle.\nLook at Protest The Hero. They had a label deal. They sold decently. They had decent film clips. They toured a lot. Then the sales dried up. By the end of it, they had no label and no money. They could have packed it in and done something different.\nThey went to their fans to see if anyone cared. They set a target of $125K. They got a lot of hate in the process. Days after launching Indiegogo, they broke past their target. The fans cared.\nJust this week, I got an email from Protest about another campaign, a subscription based service. I signed up straight away for the $25 package. Imagine they get the same 10,000 people signing up. You do the math.\nCoheed and Cambria broke away from the label\u2019s and went DIY for \u201cThe Afterman\u201d releases. Claude got creative with the release package for the double album release and offered up an excellent Super Deluxe package at $70.\nAnd they get opening week sales of 49,500. Assuming those sales are a mixture of Super Deluxe and Normal releases, the gross return is still pretty impressive. Then they had second week sales of 10,200. Third week sales of 4,000. Fourth week sales of 2,800. After four weeks, the band had moved over 60,000 units of the \u201cAscension\u201d album. Then they went on a year-long victory lap around the world. During that tour, \u201cDescension\u201d comes out, three months after \u201cAscension\u201d and it moves 40,600 units.\nAgain, you do the math on gross sales.\nIt\u2019s hard making money in music, there is no doubt about it, but so is every business enterprise. There is no guarantee that every start-up will succeed, and it\u2019s the same deal for artists. But history has taught us one thing. The artists that stick it out, percolating on the fringes, do end up crossing over. Pink Floyd, Yes, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails and Disturbed are just a few acts that come to mind quickly. And then, the sky is the limit.\nDaybreak Embrace And The Music Business\nJune 8, 2014 destroyerofharmonyDaybreak Embrace, independent EP, Making It, Mercury, Modern Rock, Paul Trust, Tomorrow Awaits Leave a comment\nLet me tell you a truth.\nOnce upon a time, back in the Record Label controlled music business no one would have heard any music from Daybreak Embrace is outside of their South Florida scene. Back then, bands would release independent EP\u2019s and singles in the hope to generate a big enough buzz at their live shows that they would get signed. Then once they got signed there was no guarantee that the band would still get a chance to release music on that label.\nSo a band like Daybreak Embrace could be at it for a long time before the world could get a chance to hear their music. However that is not the case in 2014. And I for one, am glad about that.\nI really enjoyed Daybreak Embrace\u2019s 2010 EP \u201cTomorrow Awaits\u201d. From that EP \u201cThirty\u2013Six\u201d is a dead set classic and \u201cSanctuary\u201d is not that far behind. This is where people should start.\nSo I was curious as to what new music they had released since then.\nI go to Spotify, type in their name and I see that they have new music. The \u201cMercury\u201d EP was released in 2013. Damn, how did I miss that. The Modern Rock scene in the U.S is a very crowded marketplace. You have bands like Shinedown, Three Days Grace, Three Doors Down, Alter Bridge, Lifehouse and many more. So if a band is to rise above the saturated marketplace, then they need to be great.\nProducer and songwriter, \u201cPaul Trust\u201d has played a big part in recording the band at a high level. Sometimes all bands need these kind of experienced people. Daybreak Embrace by the way is James Wamsley (vocals), Giann Rubio (drums), Dan Cartagena (lead guitar), Keneth Figueroa (guitar) and Dani Costa (bass).\nYep, I know they are not rock star names like Slash, Nikki Sixx, Jay Jay French or Ace Frehley. But that doesn\u2019t mean they don\u2019t rock.\nWith all the beautiful things that the Internet has brought us, one thing hasn\u2019t changed.\nIt is still difficult for a band to get attention and the odds of success are still very low.\nHowever good bands always came from left field and from a place completely unexpected. They are around for years before they are fully embraced. Like all technological startups there are early adopters before critical mass.\nFor any band, first comes the music and then comes the fan base.\nFor managers and record labels, they don\u2019t care what the music sounds like. They only care that it has an audience.\nAnd that is the hardest part for any band. Proving that it has an audience so that they can gain entrance into a bigger league. And that doesn\u2019t happen overnight or within a year or within five years. Remember that every overnight sensation is years in the making.\nBand Harmony: Is There Such A Thing?\nMay 4, 2014 destroyerofharmonyband, band member changes, Dave Mustaine, Dream Theater, Evergrey, Exit Night, Five Finger Death Punch, guts, harmony, Kiss, Making It, Marty Friedman, Megadeth, Metallica, Motley Crue, music, sacrifice, Volbeat Leave a comment\nWho remembers watching interviews or reading interviews from their favourite bands about how much the band members love each other and all of that other rubbish about how great they are for the band.\nThe cold hard truth is this. Bands/artists want to show a solidarity, a unity.\nThey don\u2019t want people and fans of the band to see weaknesses, so they try their best to make it look like everything appears fine on the surface.\nHowever underneath it is a different story.\nEvery biography I have read, from \u201cThe Dirt\u201d about Motley Crue, to \u201cEnter Night\u201d about Metallica, to \u201cLifting Shadows\u201d about Dream Theater, to \u201cFace The Music\u201d about Kiss or to Dave Mustaine\u2019s bio about his career. The same theme is prevalent throughout. The band members didn\u2019t like each other.\nNo one really speaks their mind as it would cause problems in the band.\nOthers want to speak up and do more, however since a band member has already taken on that responsibility they step down as they don\u2019t want to step on any toes.\nOthers want to have their songs included, however they keep on getting rejected or changed until the song loses it\u2019s soul.\nSo they hold their tongue until it gets to a stage where they can\u2019t anymore and all hell breaks loose.\nLook at a few bands that are doing the circuit today and there is a pretty good chance that they do not have the original members in there.\nVolbeat \u2013 holding on to lead guitarists proved problematic.\nFive Finger Death Punch \u2013 holding on to bass players and lead guitar players proved problematic.\nIn This Moment \u2013 holding on to bass players, guitar players and drummers proved problematic.\nShinedown \u2013 holding on to bass players and lead guitar players proved problematic.\nDream Theater \u2013 where do you start. Singer changers after one album, three different keyboardists and a drummer change.\nTrivium \u2013 changed drummers.\nEvergrey \u2013 only Tom Englund is the original member.\nMachine Head \u2013 only Robb Flynn is the original member.\nWhen a record label signs an artist/band, they want to know that their newest signing/s are committed to the cause.\nWant some advice.\nSacrifice everything. If you are in a band that means you are only as good as your weakest link. If the other band members don\u2019t have the same committment, then they need to be sacrificed or you need to sacrifice yourself from the band.\nIf you don\u2019t sacrifice everything then it is just a hobby.\nWant to know about sacrifice. About change.\nLook at Marty Friedman. Megadeth is on a high, selling platinum records (we\u2019ll excuse the \u201cRisk\u201d album) and Marty Friedman leaves. As a fan of Megadeth and a fan of Marty Friedman\u2019s solo work, I didn\u2019t want it to happen.\nFriedman reinvented himself by describing it as the best decision he has ever made, because, he was looking at the music that was making up the Top 10 in Japan and he liked it. Then he compared it to the music that was making up the Top 10 in America and as a musician he felt that Japan was the scene that he should be in.\nI can\u2019t say I was a fan of the music he did while in Japan, however a musician needs to follow their muse. And that is what Marty Friedman did.",

        "raw_content": "Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can\u2019t Lose: Reigniting My Passion for Social Media\nI\u2019m unemployed. My husband is unemployed (but nearly done with school to become a front end web developer). We\u2019re in debt. We have a lot of financial obligations.\nNormally, in this situation \u2014 and I\u2019ve been faced with it before \u2014 I would commence to FREAK THE F*CK OUT and take the first job I could get that somewhat matched my salary expectations and experience. Because I was motivated by fear: fear of creditors, fear of not having a place to live, fear of not having a car, fear of not having a professional identity.\nThis time, though, it\u2019s different. This time, there is some real clarity about what it is I need to do.\nIf you time-travel back 6 years ago, to 2010, I was reveling in my passion: social media and social journalism. I was executive director of the Alabama Social Media Association. I was managing social media at al.com, Alabama\u2019s largest news media website.\nI\u2019ve since veered off-course. After moving to Orlando, I held positions in the digital space, but none of them involved social media to the extent that it was my entire job. And the past two years have been somewhat of a nightmare for me, working in digital agencies in Atlanta and Orlando. There was no social media, no community engagement, no digital content for me to work on directly, just managing digital projects for clients that I sometimes didn\u2019t even morally feel right working for. It was anxious, soulless busywork \u2014 for me, at least.\nSo now, I\u2019m setting out to course-correct. The work I enjoyed the most is the work I was able to do in Alabama, teaching journalists to engage on social with their readers and viewers, and engaging with them myself. Whether I\u2019m working with local news media, a web-only operation, or something on the national level remains to be seen, but it\u2019s what I want.\nWriting, editing, teaching, mentoring, analyzing, tweaking, improving, and creating great content is my passion. I\u2019m not sure how, exactly, I veered this far off course, but I\u2019m glad to finally be back, to be myself again, to really feel again.\nHave you ever had a moment of clarity like this in your career? What did you do about it?\nPrevious postA Better Career, a Healthier Life\nNext postProfessional Job-Seeker\n1 thought on \u201cClear Eyes, Full Heart, Can\u2019t Lose: Reigniting My Passion for Social Media\u201d\nWell done, well said. Be brave, confident. Follow your \u201cgut\u201d (or whatever other body part you prefer!)",

        "title": "Zionist Power | Dissident Voice",
        "raw_content": "Zionist Power\nby Jay Knott / March 21st, 2014\nThis month, campaigner for Palestinian rights Alison Weir has scored a double against the Israel Lobby. The first goal was organizing the first-ever National Summit to Reassess the U.S.-Israel \u2018Special Relationship\u2019. A summary of this conference by Harry Clark can be found Dissident Voice.\nThe second is her devastating book, Against Our Better Judgment: The Hidden History of How the United States Was Used to Create Israel, about the harmful influence of the Lobby on American politics.\nWeir\u2019s new book has a patriotic feel, sometimes giving the impression that Americans in general have the same interests. Surely Weir doesn\u2019t take seriously her statement that the State Department is \u201ccharged with recommending and implementing policies beneficial to all Americans\u201d. Still, her work does show that, on the specific issue of the Lobby, most Americans, rich and poor, do have the same interests. It is in their interests to defeat it.\nWeir gives the impression America is inhabited by well-meaning, simple, Christian folk, who are manipulated into supporting the oppression of the Palestinians by dishonest, clever Jews. But what about Americans who support the ethnic cleansing of Palestine because they think it defends American interests? The problem with pointing out, correctly, that it does not in fact defend those interests, is that it leaves these people thinking that if it were in American interests, it would be worth supporting.\nThe book mentions the spy ship, the USS Liberty, which was attacked by Israel in 1967, killing 34 sailors and wounding 174. It\u2019s easy, but wrong, to rouse conservatives about this. Attacking a US warship during the Vietnam war was not a war crime. Neither was it a war crime for Zionists to blow up the King David hotel in Jerusalem in 1946 \u2013 it was the British HQ. Weir calls it a \u201cterrorist act\u201d.\nPatriotism also leads Weir to quote opponents of the Lobby within the Pentagon as follows:\n\u201cno group in this country should be permitted to influence our policy to the point where it could endanger our national security\u201d\nwithout realizing that this could imply the suppression of any movement which endangered US imperialism.\nWeir unearths several examples of Jews who were victims of Zionism. Most holocaust survivors didn\u2019t want to go to Israel; those who attempted to refuse were often beaten in their camps by Zionist thugs. Orphans who\u2019d been sheltered by gentile families were dragged, screaming, into Hebrew-speaking orphanages. The passengers on the Exodus were kept on board for five months as a publicity stunt to take them to Israel. Zionists in Iraq planted bombs in synagogues, and made it look like it was Arab terrorism, to encourage Jews to move to Israel.\nBut, if Jews are victims of Zionism, why do so many of them support it? One argument might be that they benefit from Jewish privilege; Israel is a wealthy Western country to which any of them can move, whose land was stolen from its inhabitants by means of ethnic cleansing.\nWeir describes in detail Zionist power in the media, and the exploitation of the American political system. Many of her examples illustrate it\u2019s the state\u2019s democratic apparatus, more than its military core, which is subject to Zionist pressure. Senators and Congressmen know that if they don\u2019t vote for Israel, phone calls are made, and they lose their jobs. But the book doesn\u2019t take this further. An educated, dedicated, organized, wealthy, ethnic minority has taken advantage of an open society. It\u2019s because America is open, democratic, liberal, and scared of the allegation of \u201canti-semitism\u201d that it could be \u201cused\u201d for the creation of Israel.\nThe book hints at, but doesn\u2019t spell out, the phrase \u201cJewish power\u201d, whose chief component is fear of calling it by its name. It describes in excruciating detail how Zionist Jews have taken advantage of America, the leading Western society, but doesn\u2019t attempt to explain the weaknesses which allows this to happen. We need to develop a theory which explains these weaknesses and this power.\nThis article was posted on Friday, March 21st, 2014 at 6:30am and is filed under Book Review, Israel/Palestine, The Lobby, Zionism.",

For many, truth is a gray area \u2014 there is no simple black and white, right or wrong to the issue. But the discussion triggered a staggering number of personal emails sharing stories about broken trust and the damage done by not telling the truth, as well as telling the truth inappropriately.\na pastor who preached using a couple from the congregation going through a divorce as an illustration\na pastor who actively covered for a staff person having an affair by telling her spouse that he (the pastor) didn\u2019t know where the staff person was when she was playing around\na pastor who leaked a laity leader\u2019s drinking problem to pressure the person to resign his position\na lay leader who started vicious rumors about each new pastor he didn\u2019t care for\na pastor chronically telling whoever he is talking to what he thinks they want to hear so they will leave him alone\na treasurer who refuses to let anyone else see the church financial records, so that no one but her knows that the congregation is on the verge of a total collapse\na pastor who knows he is leaving the church reassuring parishioners that he isn\u2019t going anywhere\na district superintendent telling a church there is no plan to move the pastor after the decision has already been made\na pastor sharing publically who voted for and against a controversial decision in a closed meeting\na pastor publishing the names of all the church members giving-to-date in a \u201cspecial\u201d church newsletter\nWhat are we thinking? Look at the list again. Which of these things looks like a good idea? If a group of church people got together and studied the list, how many of these things would they like to try themselves? I am hoping the answer is \u201cnone.\u201d\nTrust is so fragile. Many people will begin by extending a certain measure of trust, but once it is broken, it is so hard to rebuild. It is perhaps so precious because it is so fragile. Telling the truth inappropriately is almost as bad as lying. It can do catastrophic damage. This last week\u2019s lectionary passage from James pointed out what a potentially toxic and virulent thing the tongue can be. The author emphasizes the need for teachers and leaders to \u201ctame the tongue,\u201d so that it offers only praises and blessings rather than curses. But this still begs the question: why is it so easy to use the tongue as a weapon rather than a tool?\nThree troubling attitudes have popped up out of this whole discussion:\npeople can\u2019t handle the truth, so it is better to keep it from them\npastors have the wisdom to know what people have a right to know and what they do not\navoiding conflict and unpleasantness is our highest value\nThe number of pastors who defend lying as a way of protecting the congregation is high. So is the fear that scandal might tarnish our image, and if there is a dark secret in the family, it is best hidden so that people won\u2019t leave the church. One pastor actually told me, \u201cI will not share any information that could reflect badly on the integrity of the Christian church.\u201d Think about this for a moment. Withholding negative information to protect integrity. Act without integrity to insure integrity. Kind of like using guns to insure peace. It may work and in some cases be the best course of action, but is it right? There is an insidious subtext that lay people don\u2019t have the coping and processing skills to understand what is going on. I find this incredibly insulting. Having done mediation work for two decades, it is laity leadership more often than clergy leadership that is the key to reconciliation and health. This leads to the second troubling attitude.\nThe vast majority of emails I receive from pastors state unequivocally that they know when it is right to tell the truth and when it is acceptable to lie. Pastors \u201cknow\u201d what is right. I wonder how they come to such confidence? One pastor wrote to me saying, \u201cI pray about every decision I make. I take very seriously what I will say and what I will not. We went through <a terrible experience> in my church that simply made it impossible to tell people what was actually happening. It was in prayer that I received the story that we told the congregation. You may call it lying, but for me it was a case of spiritual discernment, and I have no doubt that it was the right thing to do.\u201d Hard to argue with such conviction, but forgive me if I read in this a smidge of rationalization and delusion. The concept of the Spirit of God directing spiritual leaders to lie is unnerving to me. I believe that sensitive decisions should be made in community with other leaders and not fall to the shoulders of any one individual, including the pastor. I never knew for sure what others \u201cneeded\u201d to know. I always saw the pastoral ministry as a journey with the congregation, not me up front with everyone else following behind. It is obvious that my bias is toward full disclosure and total transparency. When there was a breach in the spiritual family, the whole spiritual family dealt with it \u2014 whether it was financial, sexual, personal or other. Perhaps I never had the kind of earth-shattering crisis that could have destroyed the Christian church for all time, but I did have the kinds of experiences that might have destroyed the congregation if handled poorly. I was fortunate to pastor three churches that all wanted to address problems and conflict rather than avoid them.\nThis is the third attitude that has been prevalent \u2014 don\u2019t make waves. Keeping the peace at all costs and making sure that people don\u2019t get upset is a high priority. There is nothing wrong with this in and of itself, however the desire is so strong that it causes people to justify lying as an appropriate peace-keeping strategy. The emails I have received contain a litany of cliches: \u201cdon\u2019t rock the boat,\u201d \u201cwhat people don\u2019t know won\u2019t hurt them,\u201d \u201cwhat happens in Vegas stays in Vegas,\u201d \u201cignorance is bliss,\u201d and \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell,\u201d among them. \u201cI will not share anything that hurts people\u2019s feelings, causes ill-will, or makes people uncomfortable at church,\u201d writes one pastor. \u201cI take the concept of \u2018sanctuary\u2019 very important. Church is one safe place where people can escape all the unpleasantness of the world. I am not going to allow problems behind the scene poison the congregation\u2019s experience of safe, spiritual community.\u201d This is a lovely sentiment, but at what cost?\nFor me \u2014 an I emphasize that this is my own personal observation \u2014 this whole issue is symptomatic of the larger issue of what it means to us to be \u201cchurch\u201d in the 21st century. For almost two thousand years, the \u201cshepherd-sheep\u201d model of church has been dominant. This is a deeply patronizing and limiting image, even though it is biblical. The minority model throughout the past two millenia is the one I would like to see dominate in the millennium to come: that of teacher-disciple. This is a much more empowering, edifying model \u2014 and equally as biblical. See, the problem with the shepherd-sheep model is that try as hard as you will, if you\u2019re a sheep you can never become a shepherd. You will always be subservient and inferior to the shepherds (pastors?) who tend you. However, a disciple is in training to become a teacher. Followers can become leaders, learners can become teachers, disciples become stewards, mentors and guides. Shepherds protect their lambys from the wolves; teachers equip and train their students to protect themselves. Where \u201cpastoral\u201d ministry is locked into the traditional \u201cshepherding\u201d mentality, you can treat the sheep anyway you see fit \u2014 they won\u2019t know any better. But where \u201cdisciple-making\u201d ministry prevails, teachers have the highest commitment to equipping students to become trustworthy, honest, and respectful leaders themselves. The pathway toward healing broken trust is not through the sheep-pen, but into true spiritual community. It will take more than a shift of metaphor, but moving from the \u201cshepherd-sheep\u201d to the \u201cteacher-disciple\u201d worldview may be a very good first step.\nCategories: Church Leadership, Communication in the Church, Congregational Life, Core Values\nTagged as: Church Leadership, hypocrisy\nAs a pastor, I am certainly guilty of the telling people what I think they want to hear at the moment (often to help make sure I\u2019ll get a paycheck that would clear) \u2013 my last church would have been insolvent without the financial support of two families, so keeping them \u201chappy\u201d until forming disciples that translated into giving felt essential, even though definitely not what Jesus would have done. I think that underscores, at least in my experience, the fundamental problem \u2013 taking shortcuts, if you will, to try and keep the institutional church afloat while at the same time attempting to make disciples, which is time intensive. These goals would ideally always go hand in hand, but sadly they sometimes seem to part ways.\nWhile I am in favor of telling the truth for the right reasons, I would say that our general failure to make disciples frequently means that certain laity in congregations are as complicit or active in the lies and dishonesty as the pastors are. I saw that mentioned in your list (\u201cLay leader spreads rumors . . .\u201d), but the bulk of your post seems directed to pastors (whom I imagine are the majority of your reading audience, so I don\u2019t intend to fault you for that). I just to want to make sure this whole topic doesn\u2019t get unloaded unfairly on pastors exclusively.\nAnd I try to strike a balance so that the blame doesn\u2019t fall too heavily on leaders \u2014 primarily pastors \u2014 who are trying to manage wisely and well in a dysfunctional system. Our system sometimes punishes honesty and rewards dishonesty, so it is hard to blame individuals. My main point is how sad it is that the system has gotten so broken that honesty isn\u2019t always the best policy (to draw upon another cliche\u2026)\nPatrick Tiedt says:\nDo we really think that we can take sin, that which seperates us from God, this lightly and still say that we live lives of holiness which is different from the world around us??\nApparently. It boggles my mind, but there are some who feel we can play loose and fast with the truth and it\u2019s no big deal. Sad, huh?\nJust a note on a pet peeve of mine from the end of your fourth paragraph:\n\u201cBegs the question\u201d does not mean \u201craise the question.\u201d Begging the question is a form of logical fallacy in which a conclusion is used as a premise. To argue, for example, that whereas only a Divine Designer could account for an elegantly created universe, and whereas we see elegance in the created order, therefore the universe must have been designed begs the question \u201conly a Divine Designer could account for an elegantly created universe.\u201d\nBegging the question is the wicked step-sibling of circular logic of the the-Bible-is-inspired-by-God-because-Second Timothy 3:16-says-the-Bible-is-inspired-by-God variety.\nSee http://skepdic.com/begging.html for more info.\nSo, you don\u2019t think the conclusion that it seems easier to use the tongue to destroy than build up is valid? I actually think that both James and the majority of modern culture assume the initial point that snarkiness is easier than blessing. In this case, I think it both begs and raises the question, but I didn\u2019t obviously mean it the way you read it\u2026\nOy veh. Who would want to join ranks with this kind of unhealthiness & immaturity? C\u2019mon, clergy.\nThe questions that race through my head are about accountability and just simply not tolerating bad behavior. This stuff happens over time through inattention and carelessness much more than by intent. But like you\u2026c\u2019mon!\nWendi Gordon says:\nI especially appreciated your mention of the third attitude that is prevalent: \u201cKeeping the peace at all costs and making sure that people don\u2019t get upset.\u201d In my opinion, that attitude is by far the most destructive, not only because it is used to justifying lies, but also because it is what keeps pastors from setting healthy boundaries and speaking up when their own needs are going unmet.\nI am both a pastor and spouse of a pastor, so I fully understand how it can seem expedient for clergy to keep their true feelings carefully hidden and just smile and keep getting blamed for everything and handed additional responsibilities. However, as I stress in my life coaching and workshops for pastors, this is not only damaging to the pastor (and his/her family), it is also enabling the congregation to remain unhealthily dependent and keeping the people of God from doing the work they are called to do.\nGood balance \u2013 telling the truth doesn\u2019t mean that we automatically spew every bit of information we\u2019ve ever gathered just because we have a platform from which to do so.",

        "raw_content": "We\u2019ll get by with a little help from our friends\nWater is a funny thing. We can\u2019t live without it, but right now, it\u2019s getting increasingly hard to live with it in many parts of Minnesota. This summer\u2019s storms have brought damaging winds, tornadoes and rain. Lots and lots of rain. So much, in fact, that dozens of counties, along with several tribal nations, are reporting significant impacts.\nWhat\u2019s a state to do in such a situation? Ask for help. Representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recently arrived to conduct preliminary damage assessments (PDAs) along with state and local officials. What they discover will determine whether the state can request a federal major disaster declaration.\nIf a federal disaster is declared, qualifying local governments can ask for reimbursement of money they spend on response and cleanup, such as removing debris from roads; emergency protective measures, such as removing downed branches from power lines; and damages to public property, such as roads and bridges, water control facilities, buildings and equipment, utilities and parks. The federal government covers 75 percent of these reimbursements, while the state, through our Homeland Security and Emergency Management (HSEM) division, picks up the other 25 percent.\nThe federal disaster declaration process is several steps long, which means we may not know the full monetary extent of the damages until the PDAs are complete. Here is a summary of how that process works (for a more detailed look, check out our Preliminary Damage Assessment Process (PDF):\nShortly after the incident, local officials tell HSEM what facilities in their communities are affected.\nHSEM asks FEMA to conduct a PDA. They view the damage in person together with teams from the affected county to find out whether the damage meets the threshold of $3.68 per person.\nIf it does, and the state meets its threshold of $7.7 million, HSEM drafts a letter on behalf of the governor requesting a disaster declaration. This includes information such as National Weather Service data and the steps local officials took to respond to the emergency.\nThe governor submits the letter to the president through FEMA. If the president declares a federal disaster, HSEM and FEMA work together to apply for funds.\nThere are two things you can do if you have damages to your home or business. First, report your damages to your county emergency manager (here\u2019s how to find that person). They\u2019ll submit the data to HSEM. Second, contact the Minnesota Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (MNVOAD), which has plenty of volunteer agencies stepping in to assist residents who have been affected by the flooding.\nBy working together on local, county, state and federal levels, we can rediscover the benevolent side of water and recover from disaster.",

As my cancer has recently decided to progress I thought I would put pen to paper again\u2026\nSo you decided to wake up from your long sleep then. I wonder what you\u2019ve been dreaming about all those months. Did I give you a nudge? Was it the episode of infection after my stent exchange operation? Did all those cytokines flying around my body jolt you awake? Or have you been waking up more insidiously over a few months, really quietly so that I didn\u2019t notice at first and then bang, did you think it would be fun to give me a very hard tap on the shoulder, just to make sure I knew you were back?\nWhatever it was that woke you up I do know about it now. The pain you are causing is horrible and I am not impressed. You are forcing my hand to have to resort to stronger and stronger analgesia, just to quieten your effects on my damaged body. When I sat in the Registrar\u2019s Office at work and looked at the scan pictures my heart sank. There you were. Bold as brass. All over my abdomen. Filling my pelvis. Threatening to obstruct my large bowel. Sneakily hiding behind my left clavicle.\nSo here\u2019s the thing. I\u2019m not quite ready to let you take my life yet. I have a few more things I\u2019d like to achieve. I want to look after a few more patients of my own. I want to finish my third book. There are so many people out there I would love to meet in real life. So I\u2019m afraid I\u2019m going to have to poison you again in the hope that we can shrink you a bit and send you back off to sleep. You are nothing without me, as when I die so do you, so please be obedient and let the drugs do their work on you.

        "raw_content": "By ECI, in General Q/A, April 3, 2018\nQ1. What is an Electronic Voting machine? In what way its functioning is different from the conventional system of voting?\nAns. Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) is an electronic device for recording votes. An Electronic Voting Machine consists of two Units \u2013 a Control Unit and a Balloting Unit \u2013 joined by a five-meter cable. The Control Unit is placed with the Presiding Officer or a Polling Officer and the Balloting Unit is placed inside the voting compartment. Instead of issuing a ballot paper, the Polling Officer in-charge of the Control Unit will release a ballot by pressing the Ballot Button on the Control Unit. This will enable the voter to cast his vote by pressing the blue button on the Balloting Unit against the candidate and symbol of his choice.\nQ2. When was the EVM first introduced in elections?\nAns. EVMs were first used in 70-Parur Assembly Constituency of Kerala in the year 1982.\nQ3. How can EVMs be used in areas where there is no electricity?\nAns. EVMs do not require electricity. EVMs run on an ordinary battery assembled by Bharat Electronics Limited/Electronics Corporation of India Limited.\nQ4. What is the maximum number of votes which can be cast in EVMs?\nAns. An EVM being used by ECI can record a maximum of 2,000 votes.\nQ5. What is the maximum number of candidates which EVMs can cater to?\nAns. In case of M2 EVMs (2006-10), EVMs can cater to a maximum of 64 candidates including NOTA. There is provision for 16 candidates in a Balloting Unit. If the total number of candidates exceeds 16, more balloting units can be attached (one per 16 candidates) up to a maximum of 64 candidates by connecting 4 Balloting Units. However, in case of M3 EVMs (Post 2013), EVMs can cater to a maximum of 384 candidates including NOTA by connecting 24 Balloting Units.\nQ6. What will happen if the EVM in a particular polling station goes out of order?\nAns. If an EVM of a particular polling station goes out of order, the same is replaced with a new one. The votes recorded until the stage when the EVM went out of order remains safe in the memory of the Control Unit and it is perfectly fine to proceed with the polling after replacing the EVM with new EVM and there is no need to start the poll from the beginning. On counting day, votes recorded in both Control Units are counted to give the aggregate result of that polling station.\nQ7. Who has designed the EVMs?\nAns. The EVMs have been devised and designed by the Technical Experts Committee (TEC) of the Election Commission in collaboration with two Public Sector undertakings viz., Bharat Electronics Ltd., Bangalore and Electronic Corporation of India Ltd., Hyderabad. The EVMs are manufactured by the above two undertakings.\nQ8. What is Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT)?\nAns. Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) is an independent system attached with the Electronic Voting Machines that allows the voters to verify that their votes are cast as intended. When a vote is cast, a slip is printed containing the serial number, name and symbol of the candidate and remains exposed through a transparent window for 7 seconds. Thereafter, this printed slip automatically gets cut and falls in the sealed drop box of the VVPAT.\nQ9. Whether VVPAT runs on electricity?\nAns. No. VVPAT runs on a power pack Battery.\nQ10. Where were VVPATs used for first time in India?\nAns. VVPATs with EVMs were used for first time in a bye-election from 51-Noksen (ST) Assembly Constituency of Nagaland.\nQ11. Who conducts the First Level Checking of EVMs & VVPATs?\nAns. Only authorized engineers of the manufacturers, namely Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) and Electronics Corporation of India Limited (ECIL), conduct the First Level Checking (FLC) of EVMs and VVPATs under control of District Election Officer and direct supervision of Dy. DEO in the presence of representative of Political Parties under videography.\nQ12. What is the cost of the machines? Is it not too expensive to use EVMs?\nAns. The Cost of M2 EVMs (manufactured between 2006-10) was Rs.8670/- per EVM (Balloting Unit and Control Unit). The cost of M3 EVMs has been tentatively fixed at about Rs. 17,000 per unit. Even though the initial investment seems somewhat heavy, this is more than set off by the savings in the matter of printing of ballot papers in lakhs for every election, their transportation, storage etc., and the substantial reduction in the counting staff and the remuneration paid to them.\nQ13. In our country a sizeable section of the population is illiterate. Will it not cause problems for the illiterate voters?\nAns. Voting by EVMs is much simpler compared to the conventional system, where one has to put the voting mark on or near the symbol of the candidate of his choice on the Ballot Paper, fold it first vertically and then horizontally and thereafter put it into the ballot box. In EVMs, the voter has to simply press the blue button on Ballot Unit against the candidate and symbol of his choice and the vote is recorded.\nQ14. Is it possible to use EVMs for simultaneous elections for Parliament and State Legislative Assembly?\nAns. Yes. However, during simultaneous elections 2 separate sets of EVMs are required, one for the Parliamentary Constituency and the other for the Legislative Assembly Constituency.\nQ15. What are the advantages in using EVMs?\nAns. Advantage of using EVMs:\nIt completely eliminates the possibility of casting 'Invalid Votes', which during the paper ballot regime was noticed in large numbers during each election. In fact, in many cases, the number of 'Invalid Votes' exceeded the winning margin, leading to numerous complaints and litigations. Thus EVMs have enabled a more authentic and accurate reflection of the choice of the electorate. With the use of EVMs, printing of millions of ballot papers for every election can be dispensed with, as only one ballot paper is required for fixing on the Balloting Unit at each polling station instead of one ballot paper for each individual elector. This results in huge savings by way of cost of paper, printing, transportation, storage and distribution. The counting process is very quick and the result can be declared within 3 to 5 hours as compared to 30-40 hours, on an average, under the conventional Ballot paper system. Q16. With ballot boxes counting is done after mixing the ballot papers. Is it possible to adopt this system when EVMs are used?\nAns. Yes, through the use of a device called 'Totalizer' which can accommodate upto 14 Control Units at a time to aggregate votes without revealing the candidate-wise count of individual EVM used at a particular polling station. However, totalizers are not in use at present as its technical aspects and other related issues are under examination and it is also the subject of a court case.\nQ17. How long does the Control Unit store the result in its memory?\nAns. The Control Unit can store the result in its memory until the data is deleted or cleared.\nQ18. Wherever an election petition is filed, the result of the election is subject to the final outcome. The courts, in appropriate cases, may order a recount of votes. Whether EVMs can be stored for such a long time and whether the result can be taken in the presence of the officers authorised by Courts?\nAns.The lifespan of an EVM is 15 years & even more and votes recorded in the Control Unit can be stored upto its lifetime until it is cleared. If the Court orders a recount, the Control Unit can be reactivated by fixing the battery and it will display the result stored in its memory.\nQ19. Is it possible to vote more than once by pressing the button again and again?\nAns. No. As soon as a particular button on the Balloting Unit is pressed, the vote is recorded for that particular candidate and the machine gets locked. Even if one presses that button further or any other button, no further vote will be recorded. This way the EVMs ensure the principle of \"one man, one vote\". The next vote is enabled only when the Presiding Officer/Polling Officer in-charge of the Control Unit releases the Ballot by pressing the Ballot Button. This is a distinct advantage over the ballot paper system.\nQ20. How can a voter be sure that the EVM is working and his vote has been recorded?\nAns. As soon as the voter presses the `blue button' against the candidate and symbol of his choice, the lamp against symbol of that particular candidate glows red and a long beep sound is heard. Thus, there is both audio and visual indications for the voter to be assured that his vote has been recorded correctly. In addition, VVPAT provides an additional visual verification in the form of paper slip to the voter so he can ensure that his vote has been correctly recorded for the candidate of his choice.\nQ21. Is it true that sometimes because of short-circuitry or other reason, a voter is likely to get an electric shock while pressing the `blue button?\nAns.No. EVMs work on a battery and there is absolutely no chance of any voter getting an electric shock at the time of pressing the `blue button' or at any time of handling the EVM.\nQ22. Is it possible to program the EVMs in such a way that initially, say upto 100 votes, votes will be recorded exactly in the same way as the `blue buttons' are pressed, but thereafter, votes will be recorded only in favor of one particular candidate irrespective of whether the `blue button' against that candidate or any other candidate is pressed?\nAns. The microchip used in EVMs is a one-time programmable/ masked chip, which can neither be read nor overwritten. Hence, the program used in the EVMs cannot be reprogrammed in a particular manner. Furthermore, the EVMs are stand-alone machines which are not accessible remotely from any network are connected with any external devices and there is no operating system used in these machines. There is, therefore, absolutely no chance of programming the EVMs in a particular way to select any particular candidate or political party.\nQ23. Will it not be difficult to transport the EVMs to the polling stations?\nAns. No. On the contrary, it is easier to transport the EVMs, as compared to ballot boxes as EVMs are lighter, portable and come with custom-made polypropylene carrying cases for ease of portage/transport.\nQ24. In many areas of the country, there is no electricity connection and even in those places where there is electricity connection, power supply is erratic. In this scenario will it not create problem in storing the machines without air conditioning?\nAns. There is no need to air condition the room/hall where EVMs are stored. What is required is only to keep the room/hall free from dust dampness and rodents as in the case of ballot boxes.\nQ25. In the conventional system, it will be possible to know the total number of votes polled at any particular point of time. In EVMs 'Result' portion is sealed and will be opened only at the time of counting. How can the total number of votes polled be known on the date of poll?\nAns. In addition to the 'Result' button, there is a 'Total' button on Control Unit of EVMs. By pressing this button the total number of votes polled upto the time of pressing the button will be displayed without indicating the candidate-wise result.\nQ26. The Balloting Unit has provision for 16 candidates. In a constituency, there are only 10 candidates. The voter may press any of the buttons from 11 to 16. Will these votes not be wasted?\nAns. No. If there are only 10 candidates including NOTA in a constituency, the \u2018Candidate\u2019 buttons provided at Sl. No. 11 to 16 will be masked at the time of preparation of EVM by Returning Officer. Therefore, there is no question of any voter pressing any of the buttons for candidates 11 to 16.\nQ27. Ballot boxes are engraved so as to avoid any scope for complaint of replacement of these boxes. Is there any system of numbering EVMs?\nAns. Yes. Each Balloting Unit and Control Unit has a unique ID Number, which is engraved on each unit. The list containing ID number of EVM (Balloting Unit & Control Unit) to be used in a particular polling station is prepared and provided to the contesting candidates/their agents.\nQ28. In the conventional system, before the commencement of poll, the Presiding Officer shows to the polling agents present that the ballot box to be used in the polling station is empty. Is there any such provision to satisfy the polling agents that there are no hidden votes already recorded in the EVMs?\nAns. Yes. Before the commencement of poll, the Presiding Officer demonstrates to the polling agents present that there are no hidden votes already recorded in the machine by pressing the result button. Thereafter, he conducts a Mock poll with atleast 50 votes in the presence of the polling agents and tallied with the electronic result stored in the CU to fully satisfy the polling agents to satisfy them that the result shown is strictly according to the choice recorded by them. Thereafter, the Presiding Officer will press the clear button to clear the result of the mock poll before commencing the actual poll. He then again shows to polling agents, by pressing 'Total' button that it shows '0'. Then he seals the Control Unit before starting actual poll in the presence of polling agents. Now, with 100% VVPAT use at every polling booth, after the Mock Poll, the VVPAT paper slips are also counted.\nQ29. How can one rule out the possibility of recording further votes at any time after close of the poll and before the commencement of counting by interested parties?\nAns. After completion of poll i.e. when the last voter has voted, the Officer in-charge of the Control Unit/Presiding Officer presses the 'Close' Button. Thereafter, the EVM does not accept any vote. After the close of poll, the Control Unit is switched off and thereafter the Balloting Unit is disconnected from the Control Unit and kept separately in the respective carrying cases and sealed. Further, the Presiding officer has to hand over to each polling agent a copy of the account of votes recorded. At the time of counting of votes, the total votes recorded in a particular control unit is tallied with this account and if there is any discrepancy, this can be pointed out by the Counting Agents.\nQ30. Whether there is any provision to complaint if the paper slip generated by the printer has shown the name or symbol of a candidate other than the one he voted for?\nAns. Yes, if an elector after having recorded his vote alleges that the paper slip generated by the printer has shown the name or symbol of a candidate other than the one he voted for, as per the provisions of Rule 49MA of Conduct of Elections Rules, 1961, the presiding officer shall obtain a written declaration from the elector as to the allegation, after warning the elector about the consequence of making a false declaration.\nIf the elector gives the written declaration referred to in sub-rule (1) of Rule 49MA, the presiding officer shall permit the elector to record a test vote in the voting machine in his presence and in the presence of the candidates or polling agents who may be present in the polling station, and observe the paper slip generated by the printer.\nIf the allegation is found true, the presiding officer shall report the facts immediately to the returning officer, stop further recording of votes in that voting machine and act as per the direction that may be given by the Returning Officer.\nIf, however, the allegation is found to be false and the paper slip so generated under sub-rule (1) matches with the test vote recorded by the elector under sub-rule (2), then, the presiding officer shall-\nmake a remark to that effect against the second entry relating to that elector in Form 17A mentioning the serial number and name of the candidate for whom such test vote has been recorded; obtain the signature or thumb impression of that elector against such remarks; and make necessary entries regarding such test vote in item 5 in Part I of Form 17C.\". Q31. Who loads the Serial numbers, names of candidates and symbols allotted to contesting candidates in VVPAT unit?\nAns. Serial numbers, names of candidates and symbols allotted to them are loaded in VVPAT unit with the help of engineers of the manufacturer i.e. ECIL/BEL.\nQ32. Whether test printout of the Serial numbers, names of candidates and symbols loaded in VVPAT is required?\nAns. Yes. A test printout of the Serial numbers, names of candidates and symbols loaded in VVPAT is required to check with the ballot paper placed on Ballot Unit. Thereafter, one vote to each candidate will be given to check that the VVPAT is printing the paper slips correctly in respect of all the candidates.\nQ33. Whether additional Polling Official is required in each polling station to handle the VVPAT unit?\nAns. Yes. Additional polling official is required in each polling station where M2 VVPATs are deployed with the EVMs. The duty of this polling official will be to watch the VVPAT Status Display Unit (VSDU), kept on the presiding officer's table, continuously during the entire poll process.\nHowever, in case of M3 VVPAT no additional polling official is required to handle the VVPAT.\nQ34. Whether changing of paper roll is allowed at polling stations?\nAns. Changing of paper roll is strictly prohibited at polling stations.\nQ35. Whether counting of printing paper slips of VVPAT is compulsory on the counting day?\nAns. Counting of printed paper slips of VVPAT is done only in the following cases:\nMandatory verification of printed VVPAT paper slips of 01 randomly selected polling station of (a) Assembly Constituency in case of election to State Legislative Assembly and (b) each Assembly Segment in case of election to the House of the People. In case of no display of result from the Control Unit, the printed paper slips of the respective VVPAT is counted. If any candidate, or in his absence, his election agent or any of his counting agents make a written request to count the printed paper slips of the VVPAT in respect of any polling station or polling stations under Rule 56 D of the Conduct of Elections Rules 1961, the Returning Officer taking into consideration various factors decides and issue written orders, whether to count or not to count the printed paper slips of the VVPAT of that particular polling station(s). Q36. After announcement of the result, whether the printed paper slips of VVPAT (counted or not), the printed paper slips are required to be taken out of the drop box of the VVPAT Printer unit?\nAns. No. The VVPATs are stored along with the EVMs in a secure strong room till the completion of the Election Petition period.\nQ37. Where can I read further about EVMs and VVPATs?\nAns. For further reading you may refer to:\nManual of EVMs available at https://eci.gov.in/files/file/9230-manual-on-electronic-voting-machine-and-vvpat/ Status paper on EVM available at https://eci.gov.in/files/file/8756-status-paper-on-evm-edition-3/\nQ38. Whether it is possible to know beforehand about the deployment of EVMs in a particular polling station?\nAns. No, it must be noted here that the arrangement of names of candidates in the ballot paper, and hence the Ballot Unit, is in alphabetical order, first for the National & State Recognised Political Parties, followed by other State Registered Parties, and then by Independents. Thus, the sequence in which the candidates appear on the Ballot Unit is contingent on the names of the candidates and their party affiliation and cannot be ascertained beforehand.\nEVMs are allocated to polling station by two stages of randomization process through EVM Tracking Software developed by the Commission. After first level checking of EVMs, first randomization of EVMs is done at the District Election Officer level to allocate them Assembly Constituency-wise in the presence of the representative of political parties. Thereafter, before commissioning of EVMs, second randomisation of EVMs is done at the Returning Officer level to allocate them Polling Station-wise in the presence of candidates/their agents.\nQ39. Is it true that many petition have been filed against EVMs in courts? What is the outcome?\nSince 2001, the issue of possible tampering of EVM has been raised before various High Courts. Some of these are mentioned below:\nMadras High Court-2001 Kerala High Court-2002 Delhi High Court-2004 Karnataka High Court- 2004 Bombay High Court (Nagpur Bench)-2004 Uttarakhand High Court - 2017 Supreme Court of India - 2017 After detailed analysis of the various aspects of the technological security and administrative safeguards around the use of EVMs, the credibility, reliability and robustness of the EVMs has been validated by the various High Courts in all the cases. In some of these cases, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has also dismissed appeals filed by some petitioners against High Court orders, which were in favour of the EVMs. For details, refer Status paper on EVM available at https://eci.gov.in/files/file/8756-status-paper-on-evm-edition-3/\nBy ECI, in Model Code of Conduct, April 3, 2018\nMODEL CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE GUIDANCE OF POLITICAL PARTIES AND CANDIDATES\nNo party or candidate shall include in any activity which may aggravate existing differences or create mutual hatred or cause tension between different castes and communities, religious or linguistic.

He may at the most attract action from the political party to which he belongs.\u2019\n13). Whether an elected member of a state legislative assembly, whose election has been set aside by the High Court in an election petition, but in whose favour a conditional stay has been granted by the Supreme Court during the pendency of his appeal, permitting the member concerned to sign the assembly\u2019s attendance register but not permitting him to take part in the proceedings of the House, can vote at the elections to the Council of States or the State Legislative Council?\nThe Supreme Court clarified their order of 27 October 1967 (Satyanarayana Mitra Vs Bireswar Ghose Appeal No. 1408 (NCE) of 1967) that the member concerned should not be allowed to participate in the election to the Council of States.

In such case the order of the High Court shall be deemed never to have taken effect under Section 116B(3) of the RP Act, 1951, and the member concerned shall continue to enjoy all rights and privileges of a member of the legislative assembly without any fetters, including his right to participate in election to the Council of States or State Legislative Council.\n15) If a biennial election is not held in due time due to non-existence of the state legislative assembly concerned at the relevant time and the resultant vacancies remain unfilled for a long time during which some other regular vacancies also arise, can the vacancies so arising be combined for a common election or the vacancies arising on each separate occasion (categories) have to be filled by separate elections, even if a common time table for such elections is adopted on the constitution of the assembly concerned?\nAns: The regular vacancies that arose from different categories/cycles (determined at the time of initial constitution of the Councils) cannot be combined and vacancies arising on separate occasion have to be filled by separate elections, even if a common time table for such elections is adopted.\n[Surinder Pal Ratawal Vs Shamim Ahmed AIR 1985 Del 22 & A K Walia Vs Union of India and Ors Civil Writ No. 132 of 1994 before Delhi High Court].\n16) Can the oath or affirmation be made and subscribed on the day of scrutiny of nomination papers at that election.\nAns:- No, The oath or affirmation should be made and subscribed before the date fixed by the Election Commission for scrutiny of nomination papers at that election. The decisions of the Supreme Court in PasupatiNathsingh vs. Harihar Prasad Singh (A.I.R. 1968 S.C.- 1064) and Khadar Khan Hussain Khan and other vs. Nijalingapppa [(1970) (1) S.C.A-548] have clarified the position and removed all doubts in regard to actual making and subscribing the oath or affirmation.\nAccording to these judgments, the oath or affirmation can be made and subscribed by a candidate only after his nomination paper is delivered and it cannot be so made and subscribed on the date of scrutiny. It has to be made before the date fixed for scrutiny.\n17) Whether same proposer can propose the nomination of more than one candidate?\nAns:Yes. There is no bar under the law against an elector proposing the nomination of more than one candidate. Thus, an elector subscribing as proposer for the nomination of one candidate may so subscribe the nominations of one or more other candidates also (Amolak Chand Vs Raghuveer Singh AIR 1968 SC 1203).\nEven a candidate himself may propose the nomination of another candidate for the same election.\n18) Who can present the nomination paper of a candidate?\nAns: A nomination paper shall be presented to the returning officer or the authorised assistant returning officer either by the candidate himself in person or by any of his proposers [s 33(1) read with Section 39(2), 1951 Act].

Two affidavits one in Form 26 and additional affidavit as per the form prescribed by the Commission vide its Order No. 509/11/2004-JS.I dated 03.02.2016, regarding dues against Government accommodation.\n22) Whether the nomination paper is valid, if any of the columns of Affidavit (Form-26) is left unfilled?\nAns:The Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court in its judgment dated 13/9/2013 in WP(C) No. 121 of 2008 (Resurgence India Vs. Election Commission of India and Ors) has held that in the affidavits filed by candidates along with their nomination paper, the candidates are required to fill up all columns therein and no column can be left blank. Therefore, at the time of filing of affidavit, RO has to check whether all columns of the affidavit filed with the nomination paper are filled up. If not, the RO shall give a notice to the candidate to submit a fresh affidavit with all columns duly filled in. The Hon\u2019ble Court has held that if there is no information to be furnished against any item, appropriate remarks such as \u2018NIL\u2019 or \u2018Not Applicable\u2019 etc as may be applicable shall be indicated in such column. They should not leave any column blank. If a candidate fails to fill the blanks even after notice from R.O., the nomination paper will be liable to be rejected by the RO at the time of scrutiny of nomination papers.\n23) Whether nomination paper of any candidate can be rejected if the information given therein is incorrect?\nAns: No, giving wrong information in nomination form is not the criterion for rejection of nomination papers. The Returning Officer can reject the nomination papers as per the provisions contained in Section 36 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951.\n24) Then what is the penalty a candidate faces for filing a wrong affidavit?\nAns: If a candidate files false declaration or conceals information in affidavit in FORM 26, then he is punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to six months, or with fine, or with both under Section 26 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951. In this case as per the Commission\u2019s instruction dated 26.04.2014, the complainant can move before appropriate Court of Law for action under Section 125A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951 directly.\n25) What is the outer time limit for filing the various documents required to be filed in connection with nomination paper?\nAns: (a) The affidavit in Form 26, the additional affidavit and Forms AA & BB have to be filed latest by 3.00 P.M. on the last date of filing nominations.

Every political party which has its member(s) as MLAs can appoint an authorized agent to verify as to whom its members have voted. The authorized agent will be seated inside the polling station in seats provided by the R.O. In case of MLAs who are members of political parties, after they mark the vote and before inserting the ballot box, are required to show the marked ballot paper to the authorized agent of their party.\n29) Whether an authorized agent of a party at elections to Council of States can be the authorized agent of another party simultaneously?\nAns: No. The spirit behind Rule 39AA of the Conduct of Elections Rules 1961 is that MLAs belonging to a political party shall show their ballot papers (after marking their vote) to the authorized agent of that party only and not to the authorized agent of other parties. As such, the same person cannot be appointed as the authorized agent of more than one party.\n30) What action is required to be taken by Presiding Officer/Returning Officer in election to Council of States, in case an elector belonging to a political party refuse to/does not show his/her marked ballot paper to the authorized agent of his party or shows his/her marked ballot paper to the authorized agent of other political party?\nAns: In such case the ballot paper issued to the elector shall be taken back by the presiding officer or a polling officer under the direction of the presiding officer and the ballot paper and keep it in a separate envelope after recording on the reverse side of the ballot paper \u201cCancelled-voting procedure violates\u201d. Provision in sub-rules (6) to (8) of rule 39A of the Conduct of Elections Rules, 1961, shall apply in such case.\nIn case before taking back such ballot paper the elector dropped the ballot paper into ballot box, at the time of counting such ballot paper, RO should first separate this concerned ballot paper and it shall not be counted.\n31) Can an independent MLA show his marked ballot paper to the authorized agent of any party?\nAns: No, Independent MLAs are required to insert the marked ballot paper in the ballot box without showing the marked ballot to any agent.\n32) Whether an MLA or Minister can be appointed as authorized agents of the party at the election to the Council of States and State Legislative Councils by MLAs?\nAns:There is no such restriction imposed by the Commission in elections to the Council of States and State Legislative Council by MLAs.\n33) Whether the list of electors to be maintained under section 152 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951 can be amended to include the name of newly elected member of state legislative assembly after the date of notification of election to the Council of States or even after the last date of filing of nomination?\nAns: In case when a member gets elected to the Legislative Assembly at a bye-election, result of which is declared after the date of notification of election to the Council of States or even after the last date of filing nomination, the name of newly elected MLA should be included in the list of members maintained under Section 152 of the RP Act, 1951. Further, he shall then be entitled to vote at the election to the Council of States if the poll is taken after the date of his election as MLA.\nThis instruction is also applicable in the case of elections to Legislative Council by MLAs.\n34) Whether a person can vote at any election if he is confined in a prison, whether under a sentence of imprisonment or as under trial, or is in the lawful custody of the police?\nAns: No. The provisions of Section 62(5) of the Representation of the People Act, 1951 provides that no person shall vote at any election if he is confined in a prison, whether under a sentence of imprisonment of transportation or otherwise, or is in the lawful custody of the police.\nBy ECI, in Presidential Election, April 3, 2018\nUnder the Constitution of India, there shall always be a President of India (See Article 52 of the Constitution).

[see Rule 7 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Elections Rules, 1974]\nQ.14 Can the electors choose their place of voting?\nAnswer: Yes. While normally Members of Parliament vote in New Delhi and the members of the State Legislative Assemblies, including the members of the Legislative Assemblies of NCT of Delhi and UT of Puducherry vote at the place fixed in each State/UT capital, facilities are provided by the Election Commission for any MP to vote in the capital of State and similarly an MLA may vote at the polling booth set up in the Parliament House, if he is in Delhi on the date of poll. However, the MP or MLA who opts to vote in a place other than the place where the member is designated to vote is required to intimate the same to the Commission well in advance (ten days) for making necessary arrangements.

[see Rule 10 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Elections Rules, 1974]\nQ.16 Is the value of vote of each elector the same?\nAnswer: No. The value of votes of MLAs would differ from State to State as the value of each such vote is calculated by the process explained below. However, the value of votes of all MPs is the same.\nQ.17 How is the value of votes of members of the Electoral College calculated?\nAnswer: The value of votes of electors is basically determined on the basis of population of the States in accordance with the manner laid down in Article 55(2)\nof the Constitution. The Constitution (Eighty-fourth Amendment) Act, 2001 provides that until the population figures for the first census to be taken after the year 2026 have been published, the population of the States for the purposes of calculation of value of the votes for the Presidential Election shall mean the population as ascertained at the 1971 census. The value of the vote of each member of a State Legislative Assembly included in the Electoral College is calculated by dividing the population of the State concerned (as per 1971 Census) by the total number of elected members of the Assembly, and then further dividing the quotient by 1000. If the remainder, while so dividing is 500 or more, then the value is increased by \u01ee1\u01ef. Total Value of votes of all members of each State Assembly is worked out by multiplying the number of elective seats in the Assembly by the number of votes for each member in the respective State. The total value of votes of all the States worked out as above in respect of each State and added together is divided by the total number of elected members of Parliament (Lok Sabha 543+Rajya Sabha 233) to get the value of votes of each Member of Parliament. The statement of Value of Votes of MLAs & MPs as per Article 55(2) of the Constitution is given below*. (Appendix)\nQ.18 What is the manner/procedure for recording votes at an election to the office of President?\nAnswer: In accordance with the system of proportional representation by means of single transferable vote, every elector can mark as many preferences, as there are candidates contesting the election. These preferences for the candidates are to be marked by the elector, by placing the figures 1,2,3, 4, 5 and so on, against the names of the candidates, in the order of preference, in the space provided in column 2 of the ballot paper. The preferences can be indicated in international form of Indian numerals or in the form used in any Indian language or in Roman form but the preferences cannot be indicated in words like one, two, first preference second preference etc. [see Rule 17 of the Presidential and Vice- Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.19 Is it compulsory for an elector at a Presidential election to mark his preference for all candidates?\nAnswer: No. Only the marking of first preference is compulsory for a ballot paper to be valid. Marking other preferences is optional.\nQ.20 Are the provisions of the Anti-Defection Law applicable in Presidential elections?\nAnswer: No. Members of the Electoral College can vote according to their wish and are not bound by any party whips. The voting is by secret ballot. Therefore, Party whip does not apply in this election.\nQ.21 Are Nominated Members of either Houses of Parliament or a State Legislative Assembly eligible to vote at the election to the Office of President?\nAnswer:No. Only elected members of both Houses of Parliament and of the State Legislative Assemblies are members of the Electoral College for Presidential Election. Therefore, nominated members cannot vote in this election. [see Article 54 of the Constitution.]\nQ.22 Can an elector at a Presidential election exercise his vote by proxy?\nQ.23 Whether provisions of NOTA are applicable?\nQ.24 Can a disabled or illiterate elector in a Presidential election take the help of a companion to record his vote?\nAnswer: No. Unlike in Parliamentary and Assembly election, an elector cannot take the help of a companion. He can take only the assistance of the Presiding Officer to record his vote, if he is unable to read the ballot paper or to record his vote by reason of his illiteracy or blindness or any physical or other disabilities. The Presiding Officer is obliged under the rule to record the vote according to the wishes of the elector and keep such vote secret. [see Rule 19 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.25 How can an elector who is under preventive detention during the period of Presidential election cast his vote?\nAnswer: An elector under preventive detention can cast his vote through postal ballot, which will be sent to him by the Election Commission on the place of his detention. [see Rule 26 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.26 Is the winner in a Presidential election elected on the basis of obtaining simple majority? Or by securing a specified quota of votes?\nAnswer: As the Presidential election is held in accordance with the system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote, every elector has as many preferences as candidates contesting the elections. The winning candidate has to secure the required quota of votes to be declared elected, i.e., 50% of valid votes polled +1. [see the schedule of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.27 What are the grounds for rejection of the ballot papers?\nAnswer: The Returning Officer shall reject a ballot paper as invalid on which:\n1. The figure 1 is not marked; or\n2. The figure 1 is marked against the name of more than one candidate or is marked in a manner which renders it doubtful as to which candidate it is intended to apply; or\n3. The figure 1 and some other figure is marked against the name of the same candidate; or\n4. Any mark is made by which the elector may be identified.\nA ballot paper will also be invalidated if the preference is marked in words like one, two, three or first preference, second preference, third preference, etc., instead of in figures 1, 2, 3 etc. A postal ballot may be rejected if the signature of\nthe elector on the declaration and the attestation form received with the ballot\npaper is not duly attested by the authority specified in such form (who is normally the officer-in-charge of the jail or the place of detention). [see rule 31 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.28 What is the procedure of counting in a Presidential election? How is the quota of votes to be secured by the winning candidate determined?\nAnswer: After the valid ballot papers are segregated from the invalid ones, the valid ballot papers are distributed among the contesting candidates on the basis of first preference marked on each of them for those candidates. The value of votes which each contesting candidate gets in this process is ascertained by multiplying the number of ballot papers on which the first preference is marked for him, by the value of vote which each ballot paper of a member (MP or MLA) represents as indicated on the ballot paper itself. The total votes secured by each contesting candidate are then ascertained by adding together the value of votes secured by him from the Members of Parliament and the Members of the State Legislative Assemblies. This is the first round of counting.\nFor ascertaining the quota sufficient to secure the return of a candidate, the value of votes credited to each contesting candidate in the first round of counting is added up to determine the total value of valid votes polled at the election. Such total value of valid votes is then divided by two, and one is added to the quotient so obtained, ignoring the remainder, if any. The number so determined, is the quota, which a candidate should secure to be declared elected.\nIf the total value of the votes credited to any candidate at the first count, is equal to, or greater than, the quota sufficient to secure the return of a candidate, that candidate is declared elected by the Returning Officer. If, however, after the first round of counting, no candidate secures the requisite quota, then the counting proceeds on the basis of a process of elimination and exclusion, whereby the candidate credited with the lowest number of votes is excluded and all his ballot papers are distributed among the remaining (continuing) candidates on the basis of the second preferences marked, if any, thereon. The value of such\ntransferred ballot papers will be the same as the value at which the excluded candidate received them. The ballot papers on which second preference is not marked is treated as exhausted ballot papers and shall not be further counted, even if the third or subsequent preferences are marked thereon. If no candidate secures the requisite quota even at this stage after distribution of votes of the excluded candidate then the process of counting will continue on the same basis of elimination and exclusion of the candidate with lowest vote till a candidate secures the required quota of votes. In case, even after the exclusion of the candidates receiving the lowest number of votes, no candidate secures the requisite quota and ultimately one candidate remains as the lone continuing candidate, he is declared elected even if he has failed to secure the quota sufficient to secure the return of a candidate. [see the schedule to the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Rules, 1974].\nQ.29 Where is the counting of votes in a Presidential election held?\nAnswer: The counting of votes is done in the office of the Returning officer at New Delhi.\nQ.30 When is the security deposit of a candidate in a Presidential Election forfeited?\nAnswer: The Security deposit shall be forfeited if the candidate is not elected and the number of valid votes polled by him does not exceed one-sixth of the number of votes necessary to secure return of a candidate at such election. In other cases, the deposit will be returned to the candidate. The security deposit is returned by ECI. [see Section 20A of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Act, 1952].\nQ.31 Can the result of the election to the Office of President be challenged? If so, what is the proper procedure for doing so?\nAnswer: Yes. An election to the Office of the President can be called in question by means of an election petition presented to the Supreme Court after the election is over. Such election petition should be presented by a candidate or twenty or more electors joined together as petitioners, and may be presented at any time after the date of publication of the declaration containing the name of the returned candidate at the election under Section 12 (of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Elections Act, 1952), but not later than 30 days from the date of such publication. Subject to these provisions, the Supreme Court, under Article 145 of the Constitution, may regulate the form, manner and the procedures connected with such election petitions. [see Sections 13 to 20 of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Act, 1952].\nSTATEMENT OF VALUE OF VOTES OF ELECTED MEMBERS OF THE STATE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLIES AND BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT AS PER\nPROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 55(2) OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA\nS.No. NAME OF STATE NUMBER OF ASSEMBLY SEATS (ELECTIVE) POPULATION 1971 CENSUS) VALUE OF VOTE OF EACH M.L.A.

        "raw_content": "Exploring the practices of English language teachers of assessing the oral communication skills of grade 5 students in Karachi, Pakistan\nSonia, Aga Khan University\nA qualitative case study was employed to explore the assessment practices of English Language Teachers (ELTs) used in assessing the Oral Communication Skills (OCSs) of the students of Grade 5 in Karachi, Pakistan. The study also aimed to explore the factors that facilitate and the challenges that English Language teachers face during the assessment of Oral Communication Skills. The data were collected by using various tools such as semi-structured interviews, Focus group discussion and classroom observation. Through a purposive sampling, participants were selected for semi-structured interview and focus group discussion. Semi- structured interviews were conducted with two English language teachers, a focus group discussion was conducted with 8 students of grade 5 and classroom observations were also conducted for the triangulation of the data.The findings of the study revealed that assessment practices especially-formative assessment - have a positive impact on students\u2019 learning in the area of Oral Communication Skills. Findings show that English Language teachers use various assessment strategies, such as discussions, oral questioning, interviews, role plays, peer assessment, turn and talk and presentation to assess Oral Communication Skills of students which in turn helps students in motivating and building their confidence to participate in the classroom. Teachers were aware of the fact that speaking of English language can be learnt through practice. Therefore, teachers use these assessment strategies to involve the student in the conversation. Several elements such as technology, listening, lesson planning, reading aloud and integration of all four skills assist English Language teachers in the process of assessment of Oral Communication Skills. Results indicated that speaking skill is the most difficult skill to teach and assess. In addition, it also revealed that English Language teachers face several challenges in the implementation of assessment strategies. The major challenges for English Language Teachers were over crowded classes, negligence of Oral Communication Skills in the summative examination, lack of resources and workload. The generalizability of the findings may be limited to the context where this research has been conducted because of small sample size. However, the findings can be transferred to other contexts having a similar background in terms of teaching, learning and assessment. Moreover, future studies can employ different research methods such as action research or a true experimental study to get more reliable results and see the improvement in students\u2019 learning of oral communication skills.\nSonia, .

        "raw_content": "Lane Wright is Director of Policy Analysis at Education Post. He is focused on telling stories that help families understand how their schools are doing, how to make them better, and how policy plays a role. He\u2019s a former journalist and former press secretary to Florida\u2019s governor. Full profile \u2192\nIf I had to pick one word that critics and supporters of Tennessee\u2019s Education Commissioner Candice McQueen might agree on to describe her, it would probably be \u201cengaged.\u201d\nShe\u2019s one of the highest profile state education leaders in the country. She\u2019s constantly appearing in national and local education news stories, shaping the conversation around improving schools. She\u2019s getting out of her office and talking to parents, teachers and others in local communities around the state. She\u2019s visiting schools and working hard for education reforms she believes in, while at the same time, being flexible and making adjustments when things aren\u2019t going as planned.\nMcQueen recently took a little break from her day-to-day to answer a few questions for Education Post\u2019s Coffee Break, and shed some light on maintaining Tennessee\u2019s status as an education leader, her state\u2019s approach to the new federal education law, and how she takes her coffee.\nAre you a coffee or tea drinker? How do you take it?\nI\u2019m a coffee drinker, with a little cream, but my preference is a non-fat latte.\nTennessee has been a leader in reform for some time now\u2014since winning Race to the Top? How does this plan keep Tennessee in a leadership role?\nOur work since I entered this role in 2015 has been to build on our successes, learn from what has worked so far, and take our schools to the next level. We first developed a strategic vision and plan with our stakeholder community called Tennessee Succeeds, which was released shortly before ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) was signed. That became the framework from which we built our ESSA plan.\nI believe our ESSA plan continues the work and the policies that are foundational for our success but with improvements based on lessons learned. For example, we continue to strengthen our accountability system and expanded our focus on equity and supporting all children, and we provided more clarity and more options within our school improvement work. We were also able to fold in the work we\u2019ve started over the past year to increase both access and quality in early learning, particularly in reading.\nOur ESSA plan also focuses on specific new areas that help us align to our bigger vision in Tennessee around postsecondary and workforce readiness, which we\u2019ve capitalized on with Tennessee Promise and the governor\u2019s Drive to 55 initiative. Within ESSA, we have a new Ready Graduate indicator that looks at whether all students are getting access to early postsecondary opportunities as well as performance on indicators like the ACT and the ASVAB for the military. We are also taking the opportunity to explore innovative ways to support teacher and principal pipelines through residency models, which can be particularly helpful in our rural areas, which includes two-thirds of our districts.\nYou\u2019re one of 17 states that chose to meet the early deadline for submitting your state education plan. Why not wait until September and the following year to implement? Would more time help?\nOur context here is important\u2014mainly, we had a strong foundation and momentum from the Tennessee Succeeds strategic plan, which came out just a couple months before ESSA was signed into law. We had also just written and been granted a new waiver from ESEA (Elementary Secondary and Education Act). So, we had a head start on this work, and it was easy to continue that conversation with our education community. We knew the direction we wanted to go.\nFor us, ESSA was an opportunity to refine based on feedback about Tennessee Succeeds and align our broader work, particularly in accountability. It was also a chance to hear from thousands of Tennesseans and get their feedback on a range of educational topics. That in and of itself helped to ensure we were on the right path to move forward.\nI\u2019d like to ask about the minimum number of minority students schools need to have before they\u2019re accountable (N size/sub-groups for the wonks out there). You and Michigan chose 30\u2014the highest of all states. Also, I get why you\u2019re combining Black, Hispanic, and Native American students (I wrote about it here), but why not drop the minimum to 20 and only combine when schools don\u2019t reach the threshold, as some have suggested?\nTennessee is strongly committed to supporting all students, especially those in historically underserved student groups. Tennessee is a largely homogenous state with pockets of districts and schools serving a large, diverse student body. The state\u2019s accountability framework is designed to hold as many schools accountable for subgroup performance as possible while maintaining statistical reliability, validity, as well as providing safeguards to ensure student information is protected.\nWe continue to use 30 as our n-count threshold in order to increase the confidence of the sample in our model. This is considered a best practice from a statistical basis to minimize potential sampling errors. We are very concerned about ensuring that the minimum n-size we set for accountability purposes provides us with data that we view as valid, reliable, and statistically sound, especially given that these results are used for key decisions, including state intervention in low-performing schools.\nGiven the methodology we use when we look at schools\u2019 effectiveness across all of our indicators, and based on IES research on statistically sound practices, we do not get the reliability and validity we need at n-counts lower than 30. We use additional safeguards, including 95 percent confidence intervals, when we evaluate school performance. We want to have confidence that when we say a school did not meet a target that they actually did not meet\u2014and we believe that is only possible at an n-size of at least 30.\nWe also have a robust accountability system at the district level. So, if a particular school does not meet the n-size for a given subgroup, it\u2019s very possible if not probable that the district will. This ensures there is a focus on these particular students. As you noted, if a particular school does not meet the n-size for a particular subgroup, we combine Black, Hispanic, and Native American students into a single subgroup in order to hold as many schools as possible accountable for the performance of students from historically underserved backgrounds.\nIn total, more than 43,000 Black, Hispanic, and Native American students would be excluded from subgroup accountability if we did not use the BHN combined racial/ethnic subgroup.\nAdditionally, for transparency purposes, Tennessee will publicly report at the level of individual racial and ethnic groups, and the n-size will be lowered to 10 reporting purposes. The state report card will include the progress of all subgroups, including each racial/ethnic subgroup, and data will be disaggregated, including progress against subgroup AMO targets. We believe this addresses any concern that the performance of an individual racial or ethnic group could be masked by the performance of another in the aggregated group.\nIn recent years, there\u2019s been a lot of drama over school choice\u2014especially in Nashville. Is there a good case for more choice in Tennessee right now or do most parents have enough high-quality options? What about in rural areas?\nData transparency empowers choice, and we have spent considerable effort to make sure our data is accessible and understandable, which is something we\u2019ll continue to build upon through ESSA and our new school accountability framework and report card. Some of our highest-performing schools in Tennessee are Nashville charters, and we continue to want to learn from and replicate our highest-performing options.\nOur goal is to ensure we have high-quality public schools in every district in the state, and our data shows where we have room for improvement. In rural communities, we see many pockets of excellence, and we want to try to learn from what those schools are doing well and spread those practices elsewhere, whether it be partnerships with industry, offering AP classes, or introducing academic programming that opens doors for students.\nThe architect of the new federal education law is your Senator Lamar Alexander, who is a former Tennessee governor and a former education secretary. He\u2019s making a big push for local control. Does that empower you\u2014as the state chief\u2014or create a challenge because you are not at the local level? Put another way, what is the state\u2019s role under the federal education law.\nWe actually see local control in ESSA as primarily state-level empowerment where we influence goals, alignment and decision-making in both districts and schools. The state is now fully empowered with setting accountability frameworks that ultimately shape priorities, resource allocations, and behavior, and we are taking this significant authority and responsibility seriously as we have crafted a plan that at every level is about serving all students.\nPhoto courtesy of Classroom Chronicles.\nBetter Conversation, Black students, Candice McQueen, Coffee Break, Commissioner of Education, Drive to 55, ESEA, Every Student Succeeds Act, ESSA, Hispanic, Latinos, Local Control, Local Control Accountability Plans, Native American, Rural Schools, School Choice, Students of Color, subgroup, Tennessee, Tennessee Promise\nCoffee Break: Kunjan Narechania on the One Change That Has Made the Biggest Difference For Kids in New Orleans\nCoffee Break: District Turnaround Expert Karen Hawley Miles Wants No Nonsense in Her Coffee and No Nonsense in Our Schools\nCoffee Break: New Mexico\u2019s Teacher of the Year Jessica Sanders on What Brought Her to Teaching and Why She's Staying",

        "raw_content": "Are project management practices generic?\nFormalized project management frameworks such as those codified in PMBOK provide practitioners with a range of tools and techniques that can be applied in a variety of projects. However, such frameworks and methodologies typically do not offer advice on which tools and techniques are appropriate for particular situations or contexts. This begs the question: are project management practices generic? A recent paper by Claude Besner and Brian Hobbs, entitled Project Management Practice, Generic or Contextual: A Reality Check, addresses this question by looking into use of project management tools and techniques and the level of support provided for them in various organisations. This post is an overview of the paper.\nIn the usual fashion of academic research, the authors begin with a literature review. They find that much of the research done to date falls into one of two camps those who believe that project management practice is generic and those who don\u2019t. Among the latter, they find that very few have studied the extent of variation (or similarities) in PM practices across different organisations and projects. The few who have, are focussed on specific tools and techniques or application areas. The authors claim that theirs is the first work that looks at commonalities and variations in project management practice across a wide range of organisations and project types.\nAnd so, on to their research\u2026\nThe authors gathered data from over 750 organisations through a questionnaire which elicited the following information:\nDemographic information on respondents (position, education, experience)\nIndustry, organisation maturity and project characteristics.\nLevel of use of 70 specific tools and techniques as measured on a 5 point Likert scale.\nThe respondents were from the following industries:\nIT and Telecommunication (~59%)\nEngineering/Construction (~12%)\nBusiness Services (~12%)\nOther (~17%).\nThe data was analysed across the entire population and sub-populations (partitioned by industry, organisational maturity or project type) using two approaches:\nRanking of tools by average use in the whole population and within sub-populations.\nSearching for statistically significant variations between levels of use across sub-poulations.\nThe results bring forth some interesting features which are described below.\nAs far as levels of use in the entire population is concerned, the top five tools are:\nThe bottom 5 (in decreasing order of use) are:\nThe top five tools hold no surprises barring the fact that one of them (Kickoff meeting) doesn\u2019t appear in the PMBOK! The commonly used tools also tend to be simpler to use than the least used ones. The latter are typically used only when there is significant organisational support for them. Another barrier to the use of the least used tools is their complexity: although people may be familiar with them (i.e. they know what the tools do), they may not have the technical knowledge to use them effectively. From my experience and that of others who I\u2019ve spoken to, the technical complexity of a tool can be a significant limiting factor in its use.\nAs far as organisational support is concerned, there\u2019s a very strong correlation between level of use of a tool and organisational support for it. No surprise here: if people are required to use a tool, they\u2019ll use it. What\u2019s more interesting though, is whether people use tools that their organisations do not support. Here the authors found that such autonomous usage occurs to some extent, but generally involves only tools that can be used without significant organisational support. I interpret this (near tautology!) to mean that autonomous usage will occur only for tools that are in a sense easy to implement and use at an individual level (i.e. no organisational resources required).\nThe next part of the analysis \u2013 variations of use between sub-populations \u2013 directly addresses the main objective of the research: i.e are practices generic or contextual. Firstly, the authors find that the rank-ordering of tools by level of usage indicates that the most and least commonly used tools are virtually the same across all sub-populations. This clearly indicates that there is a commonality in the way project management is practised across industries, organisations and project types. Having said that, the authors hasten to point out that there are significant differences across sub-populations too. I summarise the main differences in the following paragraphs.\nOrganisational Maturity Level: Respondents were asked to rate their organisation\u2019s level of maturity on a scale of one to five, akin to the Capability Maturity Model . The authors grouped the responses into two lots: one with maturity scores of two and below and the others with scores above two. They found significant differences in tool usage between the two groups. This included:\nAll tools are used more often on projects in mature organisations.\nThere is greater autonomous usage of tools in less mature organisations\nThat being said, the most frequently and least frequently used tools were found to be virtually the same in all organisations, regardless of maturity level.\nProject Size: The authors split the population into two groups based on dollar value of the project (a rough indication of project size), with the dividing line drawn (arbitrarily) at the million dollar mark. Here again, they found that the pattern of tool use frequency was much the same. The differences were:\nLarger projects used a greater number of tools, and did so more often than smaller ones.\nLarger projects tend to have a significantly higher usage of project controlling / monitoring and risk management tools.\nProduct types: Here the authors divided the population into three categories based on product type. These were: Engineering / Construction (E&C), Information Technology (IT) and Business Services (BuS). There are several differences in commonly used tools in each of these. I summarise the authors\u2019 salient findings below:\nE&C projects use contract related tools (bid documents, bidders conferences etc.) more than IT or BuS projects. This is consistent with the (generally) higher monetary value of E&C projects as compared to the other two. Further it is also consistent with the fact that most E&C projects tend to be for external customers whereas a significant proportion of BuS and IT projects are for internal customers.\nIT projects tend to use scope and requirements definition tools more than BuS and much more than E&C projects. This reflects the fact that requirements tend to be more volatile for IT and BuS projects.\nIT projects tend to use more tools for communication and coordination compared to the other two types of projects. I view this as a possible consequence of a general recognition that IT projects are plagued by communication problems!\nE&C planning tools tend to focus on managing cost whereas IT planning tools tend to focus on schedule and resource allocation. The latter resonates with my experience on projects for a wide variety of customers (both internal and external).\nIT projects use more risk management tools than E&C or BuS projects. This is perhaps a recognition of the fact that IT projects tend to encounter more project banana skins than the others.\nBuS projects use a smaller number of project planning tools than either of the other two project types. However, they tend to make greater use of stakeholder analysis tools.\nThere\u2019s more on variations between other sub-populations in the original paper \u2013 I\u2019ve covered only the most interesting ones (from my perspective!). The interested reader is urged to consult the original paper for more.\nAs is clear from the above, the paper covers a lot of ground. As for the answer to the question posed at the start (and in the title of this post): project management practices are generic to a large extent, but there are variations depending, among other things, on organisational maturity, project size and project type.\nI\u2019ve already gone way beyond my normal word limit. However, I should mention a caveat before closing: as the author\u2019s themselves note, the paper attempts to tackle the broad question of context dependence of project management practice by looking at a fairly narrow aspect of the practice \u2013 i.e. the use of tools and techniques. This is a limitation of the research. Nonetheless, their findings, which are interesting in their own right, vindicate the position that despite variations in specific practices, project management is a generic discipline with a wide range of applicability.\nBesner, C. and Hobbs, B., Project Management Practice, Generic or Contextual: A Reality Check, Project Management Journal, 39 (1), 16-33 (2008).\nReviewing documentation on a work day evening\nWith apologies to Robert Frost (and a colleague who shall remain nameless).\nWhose work this is I think I know.\nHe hasn\u2019t done a good job though.\nHe will not see me over here,\nreading his drivel pure as snow.\nThe cleaners must think it queer\nthat I\u2019m still working, though midnight\u2019s near.\nBetween you and me \u2013 it\u2019s late,\non the darkest night of the year.\nI give my poor head a shake,\nand ask, \u201cWhy so many mistakes?\u201d\nof the vacuum cleaner\u2019s swift intake.\nSlumber beckons, long and deep,\nbut I have this job to keep,\nAnd files to go before I sleep,\nAnd files to go before I sleep.\nPosted in Communication, Verse\nI do most of my writing when I\u2019m not writing.\nHaving said something so clearly contradictory, I think I owe you an explanation. The mechanical act of writing \u2013 what I\u2019m doing as I tap out these lines \u2013 is obviously done whilst I\u2019m at my computer. However, by the time I begin the keyboard finger-shuffle, I\u2019ve already figured out what I\u2019m going to write. Not just the topic, but much more. I know what I\u2019m going to write about, the introduction and (broadly) how I\u2019m going to develop the piece. The hard part \u2013 generating ideas and developing them \u2013 has already been done. What\u2019s left is the easy bit; the actual writing down of things I\u2019ve already thought through.\nWhere do ideas come from? Answering this would take me into the realm of speculation, well beyond my knowledge and experience. So I admit complete ignorance and leave it there. In any case, I\u2019m more interested in finding ways to get new ideas, rather than figuring out where they come from.\nSo here\u2019s a more relevant question: are there certain activities that assist in generating new ideas? For me the answer is a resounding affirmative: it is while I\u2019m on my early morning walks that I get them. A writer told me that walking was valuable not so much for the exercise, but for the ideas. I didn\u2019t believe her until I found the same worked for me. The ideas appear to come from nowhere (I refrain from using terms like subconscious, that I\u2019m not sure I understand). I could be thinking about something and then, out of the blue, I get this notion which is completely unrelated to the prior thought. It could be just a phrase or a sentence, the mere inkling of a piece, but I can usually tell whether it\u2019s worth pursuing or not.\nOnce the nascent idea has my attention, I start thinking about how I might develop it. I find it best to do this right after I get the idea, else there\u2019s a good chance that I\u2019ll lose the context in which I conjured it up. Consequently, I end up doing a lot of my idea development while still on my pre-dawn perambulation. The development phase also acts as a filter \u2013 if the idea is hard to develop, it probably isn\u2019t very good. As a rule of thumb, if I haven\u2019t found a promising development in five to ten minutes, the idea is probably not worth pursuing. However, just to be sure, I jot it down in a phrase or two (on my mobile, which always accompanies me) and come back to it a few hours or days or even weeks later. Often the second look confirms that the idea is good only for the garbage bin. Very occasionally, I go on to develop these further. My mobile memo pad is full of ideas that never took off.\nI\u2019ve stopped trying to analyse where the ideas come from \u2013 I\u2019m just grateful that they do. My AM ambles are a double benefit: exercise and ideas. So, if you\u2019re suffering from bloggers block you could try some strategies for overcoming writer\u2019s block. On the other hand, you could try a morning walk instead. Solvitur ambulando \u2013 it is solved by walking.\nPosted in Communication, Writing\nDr. Do-little\nSo you\u2019re the hardworking techie who\u2019s just been promoted to project manager. Congratulations and all that, of course, but I\u2019m sure you realise that your new job has very little to do with your old one. Chalk and cheese or caramel and chilli are comparisons that come to mind.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s that you say? You didn\u2019t know?\u201d\nYou shake your head. \u201cThey didn\u2019t tell me,\u201d you reply.\n\u201cWell, of course they didn\u2019t,\u201d I respond, and rush back home to continue this piece\u2026\nThe transition from a techie to a project manager can be a difficult one. The biggest and hardest adjustment is this: project managers are responsible for a whole lot of stuff that they don\u2019t do themselves. The best way to explain what I mean is through my own experience.\nAs a project manager I\u2019m responsible for the success of a project although I\u2019m not directly involved in the nuts-and-bolts of its implementation. I depend on the team for the latter. In effect, as far as technical work is concerned, I\u2019m Dr. Do-little \u2013 I do very little (if any) coding or design.\nSo what do I do? The facetious answer is: I manage projects. To most people who don\u2019t know what project managers do, this sounds like a Very Important Job. One in which I get to order people around, tell them what needs to be done and by when. The reality, as all experienced PMs know, couldn\u2019t be more different. The following paragraphs should serve to illustrate just how so.\nA lot of my time and effort is spent in ensuring that others can do their work unimpeded by obstacles of any kind \u2013 political, physical, communication-related or whatever. (Ah, I see that look of disbelief on your face now \u2013 but believe you me, it\u2019s true.) Some examples of this include: following up with vendors; making sure that a developer has the stuff he needs to proceed with cutting code; resolving misunderstandings between developers or between developers and users, and so on.\nAnother aspect of a PM\u2019s job is negotiation. Sometimes it seems that I spend entire days negotiating \u2013 with team members (cajoling\u2026 no pleading\u2026 with them to get the module finished by Friday, as they\u2019d promised) or with vendors (to try and get them to ship the hardware that was to have arrived yesterday) etc.\nFinally, because I\u2019ll be the first one out of the door if the project fails, it is in my interest to ensure things are on track. Here too, things aren\u2019t black and white (or even red, amber and green as those wonderful traffic light status reports show) \u2013 they\u2019re in several hundred fine shades of gray. A task can be late but still be under control. Even more paradoxically, it could be early but getting out of control. There\u2019s way more to keeping projects on track than is detailed in status reports. You have to have an eye out for potential trouble, or project banana skins as I\u2019ve called them in an earlier piece. For example, a task could have finished early because the developer wanted to finish it up before resigning \u2013 things are about to spin out of control and you\u2019re not yet aware of it.\nI may be Dr. Do-little in that I don\u2019t cut code or do design. And although I don\u2019t to a Very Important Job, I do a reasonably important one. Without my efforts, the project may well fail. So, to the novice project manager I say: welcome to the infuriating and frustrating world of project management. Remember, in the end \u2013 when your projects are successful \u2013 it can also be very rewarding.\nTwo project managers, one project\nSome projects are run by more than one project manager (PM). The most common manifestation of this is on projects that have a clear distinction between business and technical responsibilities. In such cases it is logical, not to mention efficient, to divide these responsibilities between two PMs \u2013 one from the business and the other from the tech side. At first sight this arrangement appears to violate one of Henri Fayol\u2019s principles of management: unity of command. Further, with two people running the show, there\u2019s an increased potential for confusion regarding roles and responsibilities. One is, therefore, justified in thinking that two PMs on a project implies trouble (or should I say, double trouble?). However, from experience I can say that such an arrangement works well, providing some simple and fairly obvious guidelines are followed. So, if you have the double-edged fortune of being one half of a project management team, here\u2019s some unsolicited advice from someone who has been there:\nDevelop a good rapport with your counterpart: As I\u2019ve written about elsewhere, communication is the basis of good project management. It is easier (and a lot more fun) to communicate with someone you like and get along with. Hence this is number one in my list: get to know your counterpart, socially if possible. Building a rapport (even better, a friendship) will help ease the inevitable tensions that crop up when the project is underway.\nDivide all responsibilities: This is almost as important; responsibilities must be completely partitioned between the two PMs. This means:\nall responsibilities are assigned to a PM \u2013 i.e. no unassigned responsibilities and,\nno overlap \u2013 i.e. each responsibility assigned to one PM only (never both!).\nNote that this point addresses the apparent violation of principle of the unity of command\nHelp each other: Yes, despite what I\u2019ve said in point two, you will occasionally need to help each other. This could, for instance, be by helping out with hard tasks or covering for your counterpart while she\u2019s away. Remember, you never know when you\u2019ll need help yourself. So, offer assistance, if only for selfish reasons!\n\u2026but don\u2019t tread on each other\u2019s toes: After all is said and done, you and your counterpart are individuals. Respect that by not barging into each others territory. There\u2019s a difference between offering help and interfering \u2013 though, some people seem to find it hard to make this distinction. As an example, don\u2019t offer unsolicited advice (unlike me!), unless you\u2019re sure it will be taken in the right spirit.\nMake joint presentations at sponsor meetings: You and your counterpart are a leadership team. Giving joint presentations to sponsors reinforces the notion that both of you are jointly responsible for the project.\nRunning a project with another person can be an enjoyable experience. Yes, each of you will have to adjust to the other\u2019s management style and quirks. However, you\u2019ll both find that this effort is repaid many times over through the support and assistance you receive from each other.\nSolutions in search of problems\nHistory repeats itself; first as tragedy, then as farce \u2013 Karl Marx.\nAlthough Mr. Marx didn\u2019t say anything about repetitions beyond the second, one can safely assume he would have considered them beyond farcical. Yet, in the world of corporate IT, we\u2019re continually faced with the following repeat offender: the solution in search of a problem (or SSP). I should define the term before I go on \u2013 a SSP is a project that has been sanctioned without any regard to the actual value or utility of the deliverables. This post is aimed at assisting project managers in identifying a SSP, so that they can take appropriate action when confronted with one. This basically amounts to of the following: sidestep it (i.e. duck it somehow), step down (i.e. resign) or suffer (i.e. accept the responsibility of managing the project and, well, suffer).\nSo, here we go then, seven deadly signs of SSPs:\nNo one knows what the project is about. Everyone talks about it, but no one seems to know why it is being done.\nIt\u2019s all about technology or standards (SOA anyone?), not the business. The justifications on offer for the project are seasoned with phrases like \u201cbest practice\u201d or \u201cstate of the art technology\u201d; terms that have more to do with technology than business need.\nThere\u2019s a committee responsible for implementation (often with a global reach). You\u2019ve got to love global committees with their 10,000 metre view of ground level realities. Most recommendations that emerge from these are either so general as to be unusable, or worse \u2013 patently incorrect.\nSince no one knows what it\u2019s about, the project is more about the means than the end. Put another way, project management processes or process improvement methodologies in their full bureaucratic glory will reign supreme. Be sure that you\u2019ve filled in all the right forms and have all the right signatures, else all hell will break loose.\nNo one is aware of a successful implementation: The global committee has little to show for their three years of the project, barring the pilot they did two years and nine months ago, involving 1.5 users.\nThe project will replace a perfectly good existing solution: You have a good system in place? Don\u2019t worry, the SSP will replace your tried and tested solution with one that will give your staff many hours of debugging fun, and the gray hairs to prove it.\nAnd finally: these projects often originate in the upper reaches of the corporate hierarchy, where the connection with ground level reality is somewhat tenuous. Corporate mandated projects have a fair chance of being SSPs.\nSo, it isn\u2019t hard to spot an SSP. What do you do if confronted with one? Well, that\u2019s up to you. As mentioned earlier, you have three options: sidestep, step down or suffer. The choice is yours.\nCertifiably mistaken: two wrong reasons for pursuing project management certification\nProject management certifications are booming. However, it seems to me that the main beneficiaries of the certification gold rush are the certifiers, not the certified. There are a lot of articles aimed convincing people of the value of certifications. Here I take a different, and possibly contrary approach: I\u2019ll give you two common, but (in my opinion) wrong, reasons for pursuing PM certification.\nMy motivation for writing this post is a recent conversation I had with a colleague. It went like this:\n\u201cDo you think a PM certification is worth the effort?\u201d\n\u201cDepends on what you want out of it,\u201d I replied.\n\u201cWell I reckon it will make me a better project manager and help me stand out from the crowd .\u201d\nNow I don\u2019t remember what I said in reply, but he\u2019s wrong on both counts. Here\u2019s why:\nTo become a competent project manager: A cert does not a PM make. Preparing for a certification will teach you formal project management processes as decreed by a particular certifying authority. These processes are easy to learn by reading a book or two. The \u201chard bits\u201d of project management \u2013 negotiation, people skills, crisis management, conflict resolution, prioritisation, stakeholder management (I could go on and on but I\u2019m sure you get my point) \u2013 are not, and cannot be, learnt through certification.\nTo stand out from the crowd: The fallacy here is easy to see: certifying authorities push their credentials like there\u2019s no tomorrow, hence the number of people gaining certs is growing rapidly. That being so, the \u201cstand out from the crowd\u201d factor is getting smaller and smaller every day.\nBefore I conclude, I should come clean and admit that I have a cert or two. My main reason for getting certified was (is!) that it is a good way to learn about commonly used project management processes and the associated terminology. The certs don\u2019t make me a better project manager, and they won\u2019t help me get that dream job either. However, they do help me recognise jargon-laden bulldust when I hear it (which, unfortunately, is quite often).\nIn the end, formal knowledge is always useful. So, gaining a cert won\u2019t hurt, but be sure you aren\u2019t doing it for the wrong reasons.",

In patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the emergency department, does preprocedural fasting demonstrate a reduction in the risk of emesis or aspiration?\nLevel B recommendations. Do not delay procedural sedation in adults or pediatrics in the ED based on fasting time. Preprocedural fasting for any duration has not demonstrated a reduction in the risk of emesis or aspiration when administering procedural sedation and analgesia.\n2. In patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the emergency department, does the routine use of capnography reduce the incidence of adverse respiratory events?\nLevel B recommendations. Capnography* may be used as an adjunct to pulse oximetry and clinical assessment to detect hypoventilation and apnea earlier than pulse oximetry and/or clinical assessment alone in patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED.\n3. In patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the emergency department, what is the minimum number of personnel necessary to manage complications?\nLevel C recommendations. During procedural sedation and analgesia, a nurse or other qualified individual should be present for continuous monitoring of the patient, in addition to the provider performing the procedure. Physicians who are working or consulting in the ED should coordinate procedures requiring procedural sedation and analgesia with the ED staff.\n4. In patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia in the emergency department, can ketamine, propofol, etomidate, dexmedetomidine, alfentanil, and remifentanil be safely administered?\nLevel A recommendations. Ketamine can be safely administered to children for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED. Propofol can be safely administered to children and adults for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED.\nLevel B recommendations. Etomidate can be safely administered to adults for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED. A combination of propofol and ketamine can be safely administered to children and adults for procedural sedation and analgesia.\nLevel C recommendations. Ketamine can be safely administered to adults for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED. Alfentanil can be safely administered to adults for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED. Etomidate can be safely administered to children for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED.\nhttp://media.blubrry.com/emcrit/p/traffic.libsyn.com/emcrit/Practical-Evidence-20140218-14-Procedural-Sedation-2014.mp3\nSylvain Ellis\nHey Dr Weingart,\nPrehospital Ketamine, yea or nay? I\u2019m a Paramedic Intern in the Boston area, and around here, we don\u2019t even have a whiff of Ketamine. Dr Minh Le Cong of PHARM seems to love the stuff, and as far as I can tell, it seems like a great agent to use prehospitally, with it\u2019s cardiovascular stability and multitude of uses. Thoughts on prehospital sedation and induction would be much appreciated too, if you\u2019ve got the time.\nto my mind it is a drug purpose built for the prehospital environment\nFOAM Eye-Catchers 5: ACEP says fasting is not required for procedural sedation in ED | Emergucate\n[\u2026] 19/2/14: Emcrit just released a podcast discussing these new ACEP [\u2026]\nBjarni Arnason\nThanks for another great podcast Scott.\nDoes this mean that you would you do electrical conversions for atrial fibrillation without symptoms of acute heart failure without a full preprocedural fasting? These patients are usually not in pain and often only mildly symptomatic. A full preprocedural fasting prior to el-con is hospital policy in most (if not all) Scandinavian hospitals.\nif I decide to go down that road, yes, I\u2019d have no problem ignoring last meal. If I was admitting them regardless, then it is a toss up. But like I alluded to in the cast, just choose your meds based on the situation. El-con is nice b/c they are sitting up, less chance of passive regurg.\nS.Sipra\nThanks for another interesting podcast Dr. Weingart.\nWhats your take on sedating a child via the intranasal route: Intranasal midazolam vs intranasal ketamine vs intranasal dexmedetomidine? I\u2019m an emergency medicine resident, working in the middle east.\nno exp. c peds unfortunately\nC Rosebrock\nThanks for the POD cast\nJo Deverill\nSo according to the ACEP Clinical Policy:\n\u201cPropofol can be safely administered to children and adults for procedural sedation and analgesia in the ED.\u201d\nPropofol? An analgesic? Surely they don\u2019t mean that.\nSince propofol is level A recommendation by acep where ketamine in adults is level c, if patients blood pressure is stable and you are doing a quick ortho procedure, should we be using propofol instead of ketamine due to the level of evidence?\nAlso, how much O2 are you suggesting for pre-oxygenation and for how long before procedural sedation?\nPaul, Although I agree in concept with the recommendations put forward, I was a little dismayed by your apparently flip take on pre-existing fasting guidelines and the idea that you \u201cmight\u201d have some added concern for someone who just ate six cheeseburgers before administering procedural sedation. Another point of view on what are essentially different risk tolerances: Aspiration is a low frequency, high acuity event. As Marik\u2019s paper reports (N Engl J Med 2001; 344:665-671) aspiration can be a major cause of airway-associated morbidity and mortality. In particular, \u201cIt is also a recognized complication of general anesthesia, occurring in approximately 1 of 3000 operations in which anesthesia is administered and accounting for 10 to 30 percent of all deaths associated with anesthesia.\u201d For the anesthesia community, if one conducts between, say 1000-3000 anesthetics/year, the statistical risk for aspiration is ~1/year, which in the course of a 40-odd year career would be a considerable number of adverse events. Consider that it takes only one of these 40-some patients to go to the ICU intubated, acquire pneumonia, sue you or die, to be a big deal to both you and the patient.

        "title": "Lifeline: Silent Night (3 Minute Games) | Emily Short's Interactive Storytelling",
        "raw_content": "Lifeline: Silent Night (3 Minute Games)\nLifeline: Silent Night is a (very lightly) Christmas-themed sequel to the original Lifeline (though, mercifully, it has no important connection with the disappointing Lifeline 2). In it, Taylor, the gender-nonspecific protagonist of the original game, has gotten into trouble aboard the ship home after the events of Lifeline. (I have always thought of Taylor as female, so I refer to Taylor as she below, but your version of Taylor could well be \u201che\u201d or \u201cthey\u201d if you prefer.) There\u2019s less mystery this time around, because we basically know the parameters of the kind of universe we\u2019re inhabiting. Taylor still spouts pop culture references from Futurama and The Simpsons (and the conversation even lampshades this overtly). There are still long pauses where Taylor is \u201ctraveling\u201d or \u201cresting\u201d \u2013 perhaps somewhat less plausibly now that she is not on a vast moon but are instead poking around what is described as a small spaceship, and during an emergency.\nBut Silent Night offers a couple of other tweaks on the formula of the original. There are fairly long stretches of non-interactive text in between choice points \u2013 sometimes a page or two of text messages on my iPad, more than I remember from the original Lifeline. This text-to-choice ratio wouldn\u2019t seem that odd in, say, a Choice of Games piece, but it\u2019s more noticeable when the text is formatted as text messages (where we\u2019re used to a rapid back-and-forth) and when it\u2019s printing on a delay.\nThere are structural changes, too. Taylor is no longer completely on her own. The ship is crewed, and Taylor\u2019s connection renders their dialogue in contrasting colors so that you can see the conversation when we\u2019re around them (which is not very often). These other characters are still out of the way for most of the duration of the game, perhaps because otherwise it\u2019s hard to explain why Taylor would be taking our advice to the exclusion of theirs, and it\u2019s also not quite obvious why we can hear them but they can\u2019t hear or see the advice we\u2019re giving back to Taylor. But we just have to accept that that\u2019s how the communication link works.\nSecond, Silent Night comes with a schematic map of the ship, allowing you to pause during conversation and check out where Taylor is and what she\u2019s doing. This is kind of cool, from a feelie perspective, and helps sell the idea of the ship as a particular place. I wouldn\u2019t ever say that the map becomes necessary, though, and in fact it frequently felt to me as though it had been awkwardly appended to the game after the script was already complete.\nFor one thing, the game frequently has Taylor making long trips through solitary corridors. Empty corridors are a staple of television and movie spaceships, certainly; but they don\u2019t appear anywhere on the schematic. On the schematic map, all the rooms are directly connected to one another, wasting no time with intervening space. (I couldn\u2019t help thinking of Coloratura here, which also included feelies but felt like the ship had been rigorously researched and planned.)\nSimilarly, to the extent that there are directional decisions to make for Taylor, the map doesn\u2019t necessarily give you what you need to solve them. Silent Night is not like Mayday: Deep Space, where you have to steer the protagonist past antagonists that you can see on the schematic plan. Here, antagonists appear when the narrator wants them to, and there\u2019s no system involved in getting past them. You mostly still learn by dying in order to solve the piece. If I have one piece of advice, it\u2019s that you should always search an area until you\u2019ve found everything you can, because Taylor always needs inventory. But if you\u2019re an adventure game player, you know that already.\nBut the main thing I come away with, and I actually mean this as a kind of praise: there is impressively little here given how successful it is. It is not that long a story; it is structurally not very involved; you could stick this narrative together in Twine in a pretty short time. The writing is, yes, more polished than the average IF Comp entry, but there are a bunch of times where it feels like it\u2019s operating more or less on automatic. The characters banter in a standard fashion and then Taylor spots something and says OH GOD and the player has a choice of two ways to say \u201cWhat? What do you see?\u201d This is the core loop.\nBut the UI is slick and the time delay mechanic is still fairly effective even though I\u2019ve now seen the gimmick in half a dozen other pieces. And simple though the design might be, the imitators of Lifeline (and even Lifeline 2 itself) demonstrate that there are lots of ways to take this basic idea and get it totally wrong. (See One Button Travel.)\nAnyway, my impression is that there\u2019s a large audience for this material and it\u2019s comparatively easy to write. So there will be more Lifelines, I\u2019m sure of it. The end of this one pretty much says so, but it would be a commercial certainty anyway. I\u2019m reviewing this one by reader request; I\u2019m not sure I will review future Lifeline sequels, since I suspect they may get quite same-y. But 3 Minute Games has achieved its own commercial subgenre at this point.\nUltimately, Silent Night feels less consequential than the original and is probably not really worth playing on its own if you haven\u2019t already tried Lifeline. If you did play Lifeline and really like it, though, Silent Night will probably entertain in much the same way.\nI have one spoilery remark about the ending, which I will place after some spoiler space.\nThe end of Lifeline was a struggle for control over Taylor with the green mind-controlling alien entities. The end of Lifeline: Silent Night gives Taylor a little more agency over her destiny, though she still defers to you: should she attempt a wildly dangerous and implausible suicide mission, or should she save herself by getting in an escape pod and leaving the rest of the ship to its fate?\nIt\u2019s the kind of thing that wants to be a moral/emotional call, on the order of the last scene of Fallout 3, but it fell flat for me for two reasons.\nFirst, the suicide mission doesn\u2019t merely sound dangerous. It also sounds really unlikely to actually work. The first time I played through this section, I steered Taylor away from it because I was hoping that she might find some alternate way of building a trap that might be more effective than the plan she does have. Steering Taylor away from fatal mishaps is what I\u2019ve been doing for the last 1.75 games. At this point I was used to making choices about practicality rather than choices about heroism.\nThen, because I had her take the coward\u2019s route at the end, I also discovered that it\u2019s a feint. If you try to make Taylor escape, she just gets caught and perfunctorily killed, game over. And that in turn slightly undermines the heroism of the scene where she does execute her hair-brained scheme and save humanity (until next time, because inevitably there will be a next time).\nSo. This isn\u2019t terrible: it makes more sense than the ending of Lifeline 2, and it\u2019s offering a consequential decision that makes sense in the framework we\u2019ve had so far. It just also tended to remind me \u2013 as so many other aspects of the game do also \u2013 that I was playing within a world of narrative contrivance, rather than one in which a consistent world model applied.\nThis entry was posted in commercial IF, CYOA, interactive fiction, mobile platforms and tagged dave justus, lifeline silent night, taylor by Emily Short.

        "title": "OnDeck Capital Targets Businesses Banks Won't Touch - Canada OnDeck site",
        "raw_content": "OnDeck Capital Targets Businesses Banks Won\u2019t Touch\nThe online lending service is thriving by making loans to struggling small companies. Its founder wants to turn it into a matchmaking system for business borrowers and lenders.\nWhen Mitch Jacobs founded online lending service On Deck Capital in 2006, his goal was to make loans to small business borrowers who had been rejected by banks as too risky. At the time, the need was hardly obvious. Business owners could borrow against rising home values, and banks stuffed mailboxes with credit-card offers. Those days are gone: $40 billion in bank credit to small businesses has evaporated since 2008, according to Federal Reserve data.\nThe crunch has been good news for On Deck, whose short-term loans average $30,000 and carry annual interest rates of 18 percent to 36 percent, two to three times more expensive than conventional bank credit. The 54-employee New York City company is on track to reach $15 million in revenue this year, up from $5 million in 2009, says Jacobs. Since it began lending in 2007, On Deck has disbursed $80 million to 3,000 companies. The typical borrowers are small retail or local service businesses\u2014restaurants, hair salons, doctor\u2019s offices\u2014with average annual sales of $250,000 to $2.5 million. \u201cThe goal of On Deck is to build the systems and tools that enable a Main Street small business owner to access and manage capital for [her] business and make that a very easy-to-use online service,\u201d the 38-year-old Jacobs says.\nThree innovations make On Deck\u2019s lending possible. First, it simplifies the application process. Instead of businesses sending stacks of paper to a bank, On Deck accesses data from applicants\u2019 online banking and credit-card processing accounts, credit scores and other information. Second, On Deck uses that data to evaluate the business\u2019s cash flow. Jacobs says the cash-flow analysis gives a more complete picture of the borrower\u2019s ability to repay than the personal credit scores that banks typically rely on for small dollar-amount loans. Third, On Deck automatically collects small daily repayments directly from the business\u2019s bank account, rather than counting on the borrower to write a check every month. On Deck takes an origination fee of 2 percent and a subscription fee starting at $500, in addition to the interest income it shares with such investors as hedge funds and private equity groups that provide the capital for its loans. \u201cThey\u2019re clearly filling a gap that the banking industry has not stepped up to,\u201d says Susan Feinberg, senior research director at TowerGroup, a Needham (Mass.) research firm. \u201cWhen you look at the interest rates that they\u2019re charging, clearly these companies are desperate and they can\u2019t find a source of borrowing at any reasonable rate.\u201d\nMatchmaking Ambition\n\u201cDesperate\u201d is the word Houston florist Elaine Ousley-Nevarez uses to describe her six-employee shop\u2019s situation in the spring of 2009. With her bank unwilling to extend more credit, she took a $20,000 loan from On Deck at an interest rate of more than 20 percent. She used the money to pay overdue bills to suppliers. When her first loan was nearly repaid, she borrowed another $7,000 and refinanced the rate to 15 percent. Ousley-Nevarez is now working with a bank on a new loan.\nJacobs wants On Deck to move beyond making loans directly and become a system to match millions of business borrowers with the best sources of capital to meet their needs. In August, the company launched a free tool to help businesses understand their finances using their online credit and banking data, similar to how personal finance site Mint.com works for consumers. (Jacobs says the full data profile, printed out, would make a stack of paper four inches thick.) Next, On Deck plans to use that information to connect businesses with lenders offering a menu of funding options, from credit cards to Small Business Administration-backed loans. Jacobs expects to introduce partnerships with other lenders in the next six months. Eventually, he says, he envisions a time when \u201cfive mainstream financial institutions are bidding to make a loan to a pizza place\u201d using the On Deck system.\nThe challenge will be whether demand for On Deck\u2019s services will disappear when the economy recovers and banks ease credit, Feinberg says. \u201cCommercial banks, community banks and credit unions are going to take a fresh look at the small business market, in part because consumer banking is becoming more and more challenging because of the new regulations,\u201d she says.\nFounder\u2019s Success\nJacobs has a record of success as an entrepreneur: Two previous companies he founded were acquired, including a venture he started as a junior at Dartmouth College that allowed off-campus merchants to accept student IDs as payment cards. Jacobs has raised $18 million in equity for On Deck from investors that include Contour Venture Partners, First Round Capital, Khosla Ventures, RRE Ventures and Village Ventures. And the company has access to $60 million from investors to fund loans.\nOn Deck is part of a small group of innovators using technology to make small business finance more efficient, Jacobs says. He cites others, such as The Receivables Exchange, a marketplace for businesses to sell unpaid invoices to investors at a discount, and Progreso Financiero, which helps underbanked Hispanic customers build credit. Says Jacobs: \u201cWe have a relatively small and focused group of entrepreneurs more successfully tackling a problem that all the resources of the U.S. government and financial system have been stumbling trying to solve.\u201d",

The autonomous community is based on the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country, a foundational legal document providing the framework for the development of the Basque people on Spanish soil, although the territory of Navarre was left out and made into a separate autonomous community.\nCurrently there is no official capital in the autonomous community, but the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, in the province of \u00c1lava, is the de facto capital as the location of the Basque Parliament, the headquarters of the Basque Government, and the residence of the President of the Basque Autonomous Community (the Palace of Ajuria Enea). The High Court of Justice of the Basque Country has its headquarters in the city of Bilbao. Whilst Vitoria-Gasteiz is the largest municipality in area, with 277 km2 (107 sq mi), Bilbao is the largest in population, with 353,187 people, located in the province of Biscay within a conurbation of 875,552 people.\nThe term Basque Country may also refer to the larger cultural region (Basque: Euskal Herria), the home of the Basque people, which includes the autonomous community.\nMain article: Physical geography of Euskal Herria\nThe following provinces make up the autonomous community:\n\u00c1lava (Basque Araba), capital Vitoria-Gasteiz\nBiscay (Spanish Vizcaya, Basque Bizkaia), capital Bilbao-Bilbo\nGipuzkoa (Spanish Guip\u00fazcoa), capital Donostia-San Sebasti\u00e1n\nTxindoki mountain from Lazkaomendi\nBasque coast near Mundaka\nRioja vineyards near the Ebro\nThe Basque Country borders Cantabria and the Burgos province to the west, the Bay of Biscay to the north, France (Nouvelle-Aquitaine) and Navarre to the east and La Rioja (the Ebro River) to the south. The territory has three distinct areas, which are defined by the two parallel ranges of the Basque Mountains. The main range of mountains forms the watershed between the Atlantic and Mediterranean basins. The highest point of the range is in the Aizkorri massif (1551 m). The three areas are:\nAtlantic BasinEdit\nFormed by many valleys with short rivers that flow from the mountains to the Bay of Biscay, like the Nervi\u00f3n, Urola or Oria. The coast is rough, with high cliffs and small inlets. The main features of the coast are the Bilbao Abra Bay and the Estuary of Bilbao, the Urdaibai estuary and the Bidasoa-Txingudi Bay that forms the border with France.\nMiddle sectionEdit\nBetween the two mountain ranges, the area is occupied mainly by a high plateau called Llanada Alavesa (the \u00c1lava Plains), where the capital Vitoria-Gasteiz is located. The rivers flow south from the mountains to the Ebro River. The main rivers are the Zadorra River and Bayas River.\nEbro ValleyEdit\nFrom the southern mountains to the Ebro is the so-called Rioja Alavesa, which shares the Mediterranean characteristics of other Ebro Valley zones. Some of Spain's production of Rioja wine takes place here.\nThe Basque mountains form the watershed and also mark the distinct climatic areas of the Basque Country: The northern valleys, in Biscay and Gipuzkoa and also the valley of Ayala in \u00c1lava, are part of Green Spain, where the oceanic climate is predominant, with its wet weather all year round and moderate temperatures. Precipitation average is about 1200 mm.\nThe middle section is influenced more by the continental climate, but with a varying degree of the northern oceanic climate. This gives warm, dry summers and cold, snowy winters.\nThe Ebro valley has a pure continental climate: winters are cold and dry and summers very warm and dry, with precipitation peaking in spring and autumn. Precipitation is scarce and irregular, as low as 300 mm.\nSee also: Immigration to Spain\nAlmost half of the 2,155,546 inhabitants of the Basque Autonomous Community live in Greater Bilbao, Bilbao's metropolitan area. Of the ten most populous cities, six form part of Bilbao's conurbation (Bilbao, Barakaldo, Getxo, Portugalete, Santurtzi and Basauri), which is also known as Greater Bilbao.\nWith 28.2% of the Basque population born outside this region,[2] immigration is crucial to Basque demographics. Over the 20th century most of this immigration came from other parts of Spain, typically from Galicia or Castile and Le\u00f3n. Over recent years, sizeable numbers of this population have returned to their birthplaces and most immigration to the Basque country now comes from abroad, chiefly from South America.[2]\nRoman Catholicism is, by far, the largest religion in Basque Country. In 2012, the proportion of Basques that identify themselves as Roman Catholic was 58.6%,[3] while it is one of the most secularised communities of Spain: 24.6% were non-religious and 12.3% of Basques were atheist.\nBilbao-Bilbo (348,574)\nVitoria-Gasteiz (242,082)\nSan Sebasti\u00e1n-Donostia (186,409)\nBarakaldo (100,502)\nGetxo (83,000)\nIrun (61,195)\nPortugalete (47,756)\nSanturtzi (46,978)\nBasauri (42,971)\nErrenteria (38,767)\nSee also: Basque language and Spanish language\n\"Iberian peninsula in 1030\". The first written record in Spanish and Basque are in the Glosas Emilianenses. The map shows the Kingdom of Pamplona between 1029 and 1035\nSpanish and Basque are co-official in all territories of the autonomous community. The Basque-speaking areas in the modern-day autonomous community are set against the wider context of the Basque language, spoken to the east in Navarre and the French Basque Country. The whole Basque speaking territory has experienced both decline and expansion in its history. The Basque language experienced a gradual territorial contraction throughout the last nine centuries,[4] and very severe deterioration of its sociolinguistic status for much of the 20th century due to heavy immigration from other parts of Spain, the virtual nonexistence of Basque language schooling, and national policies implemented by the different Spanish r\u00e9gimes (see Language policies of Francoist Spain). After the advent of the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country in 1982 following Franco's death, this reductive trend was gradually reversed thanks to the Basque language schools and the new education system. Basque has always had a strong presence in most of Gipuzkoa, central and eastern Biscay and the northern edge of \u00c1lava, while most Basque speakers in western Biscay and the rest of \u00c1lava are second-language speakers.\nThe 2006 sociolinguistic survey[5] of all Basque provinces showed that in 2006 of all people aged 16 and above in the Basque Autonomous Community, 30.1% were fluent Basque speakers, 18.3% passive speakers and 51.5% did not speak Basque. The percentage of Basque speakers was highest in Gipuzkoa (49.1% speakers) and lowest in \u00c1lava (14.2%). These results represent an increase on previous years (29.5% in 2001, 27.7% in 1996 and 24.1% in 1991). The highest percentage of speakers was now be found in the 16-24 age range (57.5%), while only 25.0% of those 65 and older reported speaking Basque.\nTen years later, the sociolinguistic survey showed that in 2016 of all people aged 16 and above in the Basque Autonomous Community, 33.9% were fluent Basque speakers, 19.1% passive speakers and 47% did not speak Basque. The proportion of Basque speakers was again highest in Gipuzkoa (50.6%) and lowest in \u00c1lava (19.2%).\nThis section is about the history of the Autonomous Community since 1978. See also History of the Basque people\nMonument to the Battle of Vitoria, part of Spanish Independence War against the French rule.\nThe forerunner of the Gernika Statute was the short-lived Statute of Autonomy for \u00c1lava, Gipuzkoa and Biscay, which came to be enforced in October 1936 just in Biscay, with the Spanish Civil War already raging, and which was automatically abolished when the Spanish Nationalist troops occupied the territory.\nBefore the Spanish Constitution of 1978 and its system of autonomous communities, these three provinces were known in Spanish as the Provincias Vascongadas since 1833.[6] The political structure of the new autonomous community is defined in the Gernika Statute, which was approved by a majority in a referendum held on 25 October 1979. Nowadays it is one of the most decentralised regions in the world; in this regard it has been described as having \"more autonomy than just about any other in Europe\"[7] by The Economist.\nChurruca's death at the Battle of Trafalgar. Basque navigators key for the navy of Castile and later the Spanish Navy.\nAs regards the bounds to the Spanish Constitution, Basque nationalists cite the fact that in the 1978 Spanish Constitution referendum, which was passed with a majority of votes and a poor turnout in this area, the Basque Country had the highest abstention[8] (the Basque Nationalist Party had endorsed abstention on the grounds that the Constitution was being forced upon them without any Basque input). To this, the \"NO\" vote in this referendum was also higher in the Basque Country than in the rest of the state. All in all, many Basques believe that they are not bound to a constitution that they never endorsed.\nThe Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country is an organic law but powers have been devolved gradually during decades according to re-negotiations between the Spanish and the consecutive Basque regional governments to reach an effective implementation, while the transfer of many powers are still due and has always been a matter of heated political discussion. Basque nationalists often put down this limitation in the devolution of powers to concessions made to appease the military involved in the 23-F coup d'\u00e9tat attempt (1981).\nIn 2003, the governing Basque Nationalist Party (PNV) proposed to alter this statute through the Ibarretxe Plan. The Ibarretxe bill was approved by absolute majority in the Basque Parliament after much discussion, as it was subject to lengthy legal objections\u2014on the grounds that it contradicts the Spanish Constitution\u2014that were ultimately overcome. Despite its mandate of the majority of the autonomous Parliament, the main two parties in Spain (PSOE, PP) imposed a blockade on a discussion of the Plan in the Spanish Parliament (Madrid Cortes Generales), resulting in its rejection for debate by a large majority of that Parliament in January 2005.\nSince the first autonomic cabinet, the Basque Nationalist Party has held office in the Basque Autonomous Community except for a 2009-2012 term, led by Patxi L\u00f3pez (PSE-PSOE). The current Basque prime minister is I\u00f1igo Urkullu, also a member of the Basque Nationalist Party. Despite ETA's ceasefire in 2011, this autonomous community shows the highest rate of police per 100 inhabitants in Western Europe by 2018. As agreed with the Spanish premier Zapatero in 2004, Urkullu intends to increase the figure of ertzainas, while the Spanish PP's Ministry of Interior rejects a pullback of Spanish police bodies, as demanded by the large majority of the political forces in the autonomous parliament, even pointing to an increase of the Guardia Civil in the future.[9][10]\nGovernmental institutionsEdit\nBasque parliament building in Vitoria-Gasteiz\nThe current laws configure the autonomous community as a federation of its present-day three constituent provinces. These western Basque districts kept governing themselves by their own laws and institutions even after the Castilian conquest in 1200. The new king upheld their institutional system issued from the consuetudinary law prevalent in Basque and Pyrenean territories. This limited self-government, similar to the one for Navarre, was partially suppressed in 1839 and totally in 1876 in exchange for an agreement on tax-collection and a number of administrative prerogatives. These in turn were suspended by Franco for Gipuzkoa and Biscay, but restored by the Spanish Constitution of 1978.\nThe post-Franco Spanish Constitution of 1978 acknowledges historical rights and attempts a compromise in the old conflict between centralism and the different national identities (Basque, Catalan, and Galician). A negotiation between UCD's Su\u00e1rez in office and PNV led to the establishment of the Basque statute, with its first article stating that the Basque people (Euskal Herria) takes on an institutional personality in the form of the Basque Autonomous Community; the 2nd article goes on to establish that it may be constituted by \u00c1lava, Biscay, Gipuzkoa, as well as Navarre .[11] Provincial councils provided with actual relevant attributions (taxation, etc.) were restored to these provinces (called therefore diputaci\u00f3n foral), but Navarre detached from the Basque political process. A specific approach to the national realities in Spain was eventually diffused by a legal provision allowing for the establishment of autonomous administrations and parliaments to any region in Spain (e.g. Castile and Le\u00f3n, Catalonia, the Valencian Community, etc.), while the Basques, Catalans, and Galicians were acknowledged historic specificity.\nAjuria Enea Palace, official residence of the Lehendakari in Vitoria-Gasteiz\nThe provinces in the Basque Country still perform tax collection in their respective territories, but with limited margin in decision making under the Spanish and European governments. Under this intricate system, the Diputaciones Forales (Basque: Foru Aldundiak) administer most of each of the provinces but are coordinated by the autonomous Basque Government (Spanish Gobierno Vasco, Basque: Eusko Jaurlaritza). The autonomous community has its own police force (the Ertzaintza), controls Education and Health Systems, and has a Basque radio/TV station. These and only some of the powers acknowledge in the Gernika Statute have since 1980 been transferred to the Autonomous Community by the Cortes Generales under the Gernika Statute.[12][13] The seats of the Basque Parliament and Government are in Vitoria-Gasteiz, so this is the capital city de facto, but the Basque Autonomous Community has no capital de iure.[14][15]\nThe Parliament is composed of 25 representatives from each of the three provinces. The Basque Parliament elects the Lehendakari (President of the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country) who forms a government following regular parliamentary procedures. Until 2009 all Lehendakaris (even those in 1937 and during the exile) have been members of the Basque Nationalist Party (Euzko Alderdi Jeltzalea) (moderate and Christian-Democrat) since 1978. Despite their continued leadership role, they have not always enjoyed majorities for their party and have needed to form coalitions with either Spain wide parties or left-leaning Basque nationalist parties, often governing in a difficult minority position.[citation needed] Since 1982 until the late 1990s, Basque nationalists ideologically closer to ETA refused to turn out in the Basque parliament, a significant wedge of the parliament. Currently, the Basque Government is headed by I\u00f1igo Urkullu (PNV).\nSummary of the 25 September 2016 Basque Parliament election results\nEH Bildu (18)\nElkarrekin Podemos (11)\nPresent-day political dynamicsEdit\nETA's permanent ceasefire (2010-2011) opened the possibility of new governmental alliances and has enabled EH Bildu's electoral success and rise to governmental institutions (Gipuzkoa, and capital city Donostia, 2011-2015). In the 2012 Basque parliamentary election, the PNV obtained a plurality of the votes, followed by the left-wing nationalist coalition EH Bildu (Eusko Alkartasuna, Sortu, Alternatiba).\nIn 2016 the Basque regional election was held on 25 September to elect the 11th Parliament of the Basque Autonomous Community, which left a hung parliament, with the combination of Basque nationalist parties (PNV and EH Bildu) representing the largest wedge in the parliament of the Basque Autonomous Community, the main Spanish parties PP and PSOE's branches occupying a 24% of the seats, and Podemos - Ahal Dugu accounting for 11 seats (14,66% of the total). However, the leading party PNV renewed its traditional alliance with the PSE to form government.\nDuring the 2017 Catalan referendum crisis, the parliament showed its sympathy and support to the Catalan independence referendum and lashed out at the Spanish government's stance on the issue, denouncing any measures it may take against the vote or 'democracy' altogether.[16] Besides supporting the vote, Basques of this community showed a preference for further self-government (43,5%), with independence and present-day status quo ranking as second and third options (22,6% and 18,9%).[17] In 2016, the parliament of the autonomous community passed a Police Abuses Act spanning the period between 1978 and 1999; it was shortly after challenged by the public prosecutor and appealed also by virtually all police and Civil Guard unions. Incoming Spanish premier Pedro Sanchez agreed to lift the public prosecutor's block on the law in exchange for altering its content.[18]\nTerritorial issuesEdit\nThe statute, insofar as it is addressed and provides an administrative framework for the Basque people, provides the mechanisms for neighbouring Navarre to join the three western provinces if it wishes to do so, since at least part of it is ethnically Basque. The Basque Government used the \"Laurak Bat\", which included the arms of Navarre, as its symbol for many years. The Navarrese Government protested, and tribunals ruled in their favour. The Basque Government replaced it with an empty red field.\nNavarre is one of the historical Basque territories and even claimed by the Basque nationalists as the core of the Basque nation. There are also two enclaves surrounded by Basque territory\u2014Trevi\u00f1o (Basque: Trebi\u00f1u) and Valle de Villaverde (Basque: Villaverde-Turtzioz)\u2014which belong to the fellow neighbouring communities of Castile and Le\u00f3n and Cantabria respectively, for which a legal connection to the Basque Country has become an on-off matter of political discussion.\nIberdrola Tower in Bilbao.\nThe Basque Autonomous Community ranks first in Spain in terms of per capita income, with a nominal gross domestic product (GDP) per capita (adjusted to purchasing power parity, PPP) being 22% higher than that of the European Union and 30% higher than Spain's average in 2016,[19] and at \u20ac34,400 in 2015.[20] Industrial activities were traditionally centred on steel and shipbuilding, mainly due to the rich iron ore resources found during the 19th century around Bilbao. The Estuary of Bilbao was the centre of Euskadi's's industrial revolution during the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. These activities decayed during the economic crisis of the 1970s and 1980s, giving ground for the development of the services sector and new technologies.\nEdinburgh tram car assembled in CAF Beasain (Gipuzkoa)\nToday, the strongest industrial sectors of the Basque Country's economy are machine tool, present in the valleys of Biscay and Gipuzkoa; aeronautics in Vitoria-Gasteiz; and energy, in Bilbao.\nThe main companies in the Basque Country are: BBVA bank, Iberdrola energy company (both of them have their headquarters in Bilbao), Mondrag\u00f3n Cooperative Corporation\u2014MCC, the largest cooperative in the world\u2014Gamesa wind turbine producer and CAF rolling stock producer. MCC's business leadership in the Basque Country hangs in the balance after Fagor, its flagship cooperative of household appliances and goods manufacturing, declared bankruptcy in 2014.\nEight out of ten Spanish municipalities with the lowest unemployment rates were found across this autonomous community in 2015, highlighting such towns as Arrasate, Portugalete and Barakaldo with a strong manufacturing industrial make-up.[21] The Basque Autonomous Community ranked above other communities in Spain in terms of resilience in the face of the economic crisis, going on to become a beacon and a subject of study in Europe.[22]\nIn 2013 the Basque Country outperformed Spain in several parameters, but economic overall figures were highly variable. Spanish figures are subject to conspicuous seasonal fluctuation, relying on its tourist and services sectors, while Basque performance is rather based on mid- and long-term results, according with its more industrial focus. In the last quarter of 2017, unemployment in this autonomous community rose to 11.1%[23] (8.43% in Gipuzkoa), second lowest in Spain after Navarre, at a percentage slightly higher than the EU average (10.8%),[24] but still ahead of the Spanish overall unemployment rate of around 16.55%,[25] the second highest in the EU.[26]\nUltra-High Voltage Laboratory of Arteche\nIn regards to GDP performance, 2017 was a remarkably positive year for the Basque Autonomous Community. It underwent an increase in GDP of 3.0%, close to the Spanish increase, 3.1%. In the last term of 2013, the public debt of the Basque Autonomous Community stood at 13.00% of its GDP, totalling 3,753 \u20ac per capita,[27] as compared to Spain's overall 93.90%, totalling 20,383 \u20ac per capita.[28]\nThe Basque Government's high-ranking officials, as well as Basque-based party leaders and personalities, have protested and voiced their concern over the detrimental effects of austerity measures passed by the Spanish Government as of 2011, overruling Basque taxation powers, may be having on industry and trade, especially export. Basque officials have strongly advocated for participation, along with Navarre, in the Ecofin, with a full membership, in order to defend Basque interests in line with Basque reality and fiscal status, and not as a Spanish subsidiary.\nAP-8 in Eibar\nThe strategic geographical location of the Basque Country as a link between the northwest and centre of Spain and the rest of Europe makes this territory heavily transited.\nThe main backbones of road transport are the AP-8 motorway which links Bilbao, San Sebasti\u00e1n and the French border and the A-1 motorway which links San Sebasti\u00e1n and Vitoria-Gasteiz with central Spain. Other important routes include the AP-68 motorway which links Bilbao with the Mediterranean.\nEusko Trenbide Sarea (Basque Railway Network) is the Basque Government-owned company that maintains and creates the railway infrastructure in the autonomous region. EuskoTren (Basque Train) is the Basque Government-owned narrow gauge rail company that operates commuter services in Bilbao and San Sebasti\u00e1n, intercity Bilbao-San Sebasti\u00e1n service, and EuskoTran tram services in Bilbao and Vitoria-Gasteiz.\nMetro Bilbao operates two metro lines that serve the Greater Bilbao area while EuskoTren operates a third which opened in 2017. EuskoTren operates a metro service in the San Sebasti\u00e1n area, known as Metro Donostialdea.\nThe Spanish government owns two main RENFE broad gauge lines that link Vitoria-Gasteiz with San Sebasti\u00e1n and Bilbao with central Spain. It also operates Cercan\u00edas commuter lines in both Bilbao and San Sebasti\u00e1n.\nThe Basque Y\nThe FEVE narrow gauge rail company operates a commuter line between Bilbao and Balmaseda and links Bilbao with the rest of northern Spain.\nA new high-speed network (called Basque Y) currently under construction will link the three capitals in 'Y' formation. Because of the rough geography of the territory, most of the network will run through tunnels, with a total estimated cost of up to \u20ac10 billion.[citation needed]\nThe estimated ecological impact of the project has encouraged the formation of a group campaigning against it called AHTrik Ez Elkarlana. The group uses social disobedience to oppose the project and promotes referendums against it in the towns it most affects. In spite of the vocal opposition to the project by this and other community groups (as well as EH Bildu), work continues, not without uncertainty. In early 2015, an estimate suggested that the average Basque intercity fare would rise to a non-competitive 25 \u20ac, while the Spanish central government's funding has been subject to continuous delays, spurring the irritation of the Basque government in Vitoria-Gasteiz.\nThe three capitals have airports:\nBilbao Airport (BIO) International\nVitoria Airport (VIT)\nOf the three, the most important hub and entry point to the Basque Country is Bilbao Airport, offering many international connections. Nearly 4,600,000 passengers passed through it in 2016.[29]\nThe two most important ports are the Port of Bilbao and the Port of Pasaia. There are also minor fishing ports, such as Bermeo and Ondarroa.\nThe Port of Bilbao is by far the most important in the Basque Country and the north of Spain, being the fourth most important in Spain with over 38 million tons of traffic.\nAll cruising routes arrive in Bilbao and there is a ferry service linking Bilbao with Portsmouth (United Kingdom).\nMain article: Basque cuisine\nTwo sample pintxos\nBasque cuisine is an important part of Basque culture. According to the chef Ferran Adri\u00e0, San Sebasti\u00e1n \"in terms of the average quality of the food, in terms of what you can get at any place you happen to walk into, maybe it is\u2014probably it is, yes\u2014the best in the world.\"[30] The most popular dishes are seafood, fish (for example Marmitako) and \"Pintxos\", bar finger food.\nDuring the 1970s, several chefs from the Basque Country, particularly Juan Mari Arzak and Pedro Subijana, led a gastronomic revolution, translating to Spain the principles of French nouvelle cuisine. The first Spanish restaurant to be awarded 3 stars in the Michelin Guide was, in fact, Zalaca\u00edn, a Basque restaurant, although located in Madrid. Today, the Basque Country, alongside Catalonia, is the Spanish region with a higher density of stars in the Michelin Guide, and it has become a preferred destination of many gastronomic tourists, both domestic and international. Four restaurants boast 3 stars, the highest possible award: Juan Mar\u00eda Arzak (Arzak restaurant), Mart\u00edn Berasategui (Berasategui restaurant), Pedro Subijana (chef of Akelarre) and Eneko Atxa (Azurmendi restaurant). In the new generation of chefs, Andoni Luis Aduriz, Mugaritz restaurant, is outstanding.\nThe coastal city of San Sebasti\u00e1n is home to the Basque Culinary Center, an academic research institution focused on higher education and research in the areas of gastronomy and nutrition.\nBasque food is one of the reasons for tourism to the Basque Country, especially the pintxos. A popular way to socialise is \"ir de pintxos\" or txikiteo, a Basque version of a pub crawl, albeit generally more civilised.\nPelota (jai alai) court in Sara, Lapurdi\nBasque rural sports, known as Herri Kirolak in Basque, are a number of sports competitions rooted in the traditional lifestyles of the Basque people, for example Basque pelota, the Basque version of the European game family that includes real tennis and squash. Basque players, playing for either the Spanish or the French teams, dominate international competitions.\nThe Basque country is also home to former national football champions Athletic Club from Bilbao. It has a strict Cantera policy of employing only players born or trained in the Basque Country (greater region). Athletic's policy does not apply to head coaches, with famous names as Howard Kendall and Jupp Heynckes coaching the team at various points. In spite of this, the club shares with worldwide heavyweights Real Madrid and FC Barcelona the distinction of never being relegated from the top flight.[31]\nAnother major Basque Country club is Real Sociedad from San Sebasti\u00e1n, who contest the Basque derby with Athletic. Real Sociedad used to practise the same policy, until they signed Irish striker John Aldridge in the late 1980s. Since then, Real Sociedad have had many foreign players. Xabi Alonso became the only Basque player to win both the World Cup and the club European Cup and he played in the Real Sociedad. The region is also home to other La Liga clubs SD Eibar and Deportivo Alav\u00e9s.\nThe most renowned Basque footballer of all time is possibly Andoni Zubizarreta who holds the record for appearances in La Liga with 622 games and has won six league titles and the European Cup. Nowadays, the best known Basque football player is Xabi Alonso, winner of two UEFA European Championships and one World Cup, who played for Real Sociedad, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, but retired in 2017. Other notable Basque players include Mikel Arteta, Asier Illarramendi, Andoni Iraola, Aritz Aduriz, Xabi Prieto and Ander Herrera. Both Athletic and Real Sociedad have won the Spanish league, including dominating the competition in the early 1980s, with the last title won by a Basque club being Athletic's 1984 title.\nAt international level, Basque players were especially prominent in Spanish selections prior to the Civil War, with all of those at the 1928 Olympics, and the majority of the 1920 Olympics and 1934 World Cup squads, born in the region. There is an unofficial 'national' team which plays occasional friendlies, however its squads pick players from the wider territory including Navarre and the French Basque Country.\nCycling as a sport is popular in the Basque Country. Abraham Olano has won the Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a and the World Championship. The UCI World Tour Movistar Team hails from the Basque Country.[32] The Caisse d'\u00c9pargne cycling team traces its history back to the Banesto team that included Miguel Indur\u00e1in. The region is home to the Tour of the Basque Country stage race and the Clasica de San Sebastian one day race. The Euskaltel\u2013Euskadi team was also part of the World Tour until its disbandment in 2014. It was an unofficial Basque national team and was partly funded by the Basque Government. Its riders were either Basque, or at least grown up in the Basque cycling culture, and former members of the team have been strong contenders in the Tour de France held annually in July and Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a held in September. Team leaders have included riders such as Iban Mayo, Haimar Zubeldia, Samuel S\u00e1nchez, David Etxebarria, Igor Ant\u00f3n, Mikel Landa and Mikel Nieve.\nSome notable Basque people from this administrative jurisdiction include Francisco de Vitoria, philosopher who set the theories of just war, international law and freedom of commerce; Juan Sebasti\u00e1n Elcano, completed first circumnavigation of the Earth; Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Jesuits; Don Juan de O\u00f1ate, explorer of the great plains and Colorado river; Blas de Lezo, naval strategist, best remembered for his defensive tactics at the Battle of Cartagena de Indias; Jorge Oteiza sculptor; Paco Rabanne, fashion designer; Crist\u00f3bal Balenciaga, fashion designer; Xabi Alonso and Mikel Arteta, footballers; Edurne Pasaban, first woman to climb all of the fourteen eight-thousander peaks in the World; Elena Arzak, best female chef in the world (2012); Jon Kortajarena male model; Jose-Maria Cundin, artist; Fernando Savater philosopher; Miguel de Unamuno, essayist, novelist, poet, playwright, philosopher.\nBasque portal\nBasque breeds and cultivars\nLivestock in the Basque Country\n^ a b \"El 28,2% de la poblaci\u00f3n que vive en el Pa\u00eds Vasco ha nacido fuera | Pa\u00eds Vasco\". elmundo.es.

        "raw_content": "Not to be confused with Gaels.\nA map of Gaul in the 1st century BC, showing the relative positions of its three tribes: Celtae (Galli), Belgae and Aquitani. The region corresponds to what is now Belgium, France, Switzerland, Netherlands, Western Germany and Northern Italy.\nOverview of the Hallstatt and La T\u00e8ne cultures:\nThe core Hallstatt territory (HaC, 800 BC) is shown in solid yellow,\nThe core territory of the La T\u00e8ne culture (450 BC) is shown in solid green,\nThe Gauls (Latin: Galli, Ancient Greek: \u0393\u03b1\u03bb\u03ac\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9, Gal\u00e1tai) were a group of Celtic peoples of West-Central Europe in the Iron Age and the Roman period (roughly from the 5th century BC to the 5th century AD). The area they inhabited was known as Gaul. Their Gaulish language forms the main branch of the Continental Celtic languages.\nThe Gauls emerged around the 5th century BC as the bearers of the La T\u00e8ne culture north of the Alps (spread across the lands between the Seine, Middle Rhine and upper Elbe). By the 4th century BC, they spread over much of what is now France, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Southern Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia by virtue of controlling the trade routes along the river systems of the Rh\u00f4ne, Seine, Rhine, and Danube, and they quickly expanded into Northern Italy, the Balkans, Transylvania and Galatia.[1] Gaul was never united under a single ruler or government, but the Gallic tribes were capable of uniting their forces in large-scale military operations. They reached the peak of their power in the early 3rd century BC. The rising Roman Republic after the end of the First Punic War increasingly put pressure on the Gallic sphere of influence; the Battle of Telamon of 225 BC heralded a gradual decline of Gallic power over the 2nd century, until the eventual conquest of Gaul in the Gallic Wars of the 50s BC. After this, Gaul became a province of the Roman Empire, and the Gauls were ethnically and culturally largely assimilated into Latin (Roman settlers) majority, losing their tribal identities by the end of the 1st century AD.\nThe Gauls of Gallia Celtica according to the testimony of Caesar called themselves Celtae in their own language (as distinct from Belgae and Aquitani), and Galli in Latin.[2] As is not unusual with ancient ethnonyms, these names came to be applied more widely than their original sense, Celtae being the origin of the term Celts itself (in its modern meaning referring to all populations speaking a language of the \"Celtic\" branch of Indo-European) while Galli is the origin of the adjective Gallic, now referring to all of Gaul.\nThe name Gaul itself is not derived from Latin Galli, but from the Germanic word *Walhaz (see Gaul).[3]\nFurther information: Gaul\nOrigins and early historyEdit\nMain articles: Hallstatt culture and La T\u00e8ne culture\nBronze cuirass, weighing 2.9 kg, Grenoble, end of 7th century \u2013 early 6th century BCE\nGaulish culture developed out of the Celtic cultures over the first millennia BC. The Urnfield culture (c. 1300 BC \u2013 c. 750 BC) represents the Celts as a distinct cultural branch of the Indo-European-speaking people.[4] The spread of iron working led to the Hallstatt culture in the 8th century BC; the Proto-Celtic may have been spoken around this time. The Hallstatt culture evolved into the La T\u00e8ne culture in around the 5th century BC. The Greek and Etruscan civilizations and colonies began to influence the Gauls especially in the Mediterranean area. Gauls under Brennus invaded Rome circa 390 BC.\nBy the 5th century BC, the tribes later called Gauls had migrated from Central France to the Mediterranean coast.[5] Gallic invaders settled the Po Valley in the 4th century BC, defeated Roman forces in a battle under Brennus in 390 BC and raided Italy as far as Sicily.[1]\nIn the 3rd century BC, the Gauls attempted an eastward expansion in 281-279 BC, towards the Balkan peninsula, which at that time was a Greek province, with the ultimate goal to reach and loot the rich Greek city-states of the Greek mainland, but the majority of the Gaul army was exterminated by the Greeks and the few Gauls that survived were forced to flee.\nA large number of Gauls served in the armies of Carthage during the Punic Wars, and one of the leading rebel leaders of the Mercenary War, Autaritus, was of Gallic origin.\nBalkan warsEdit\nDuring the Balkan expedition, led by Cerethrios, Brennos and Bolgios, the Gauls raided twice the Greek mainland.\nAt the end of the second expedition the Gallic raiders had been repelled by the coalition armies of the various Greek city-states and were forced to retreat to Illyria and Thrace, but the Greeks were forced to grant safe-passage to the Gauls who then made their way to Asia Minor and settled in Central Anatolia. The Gallic area of settlement in Asia Minor was called Galatia; there they created widespread havoc. But they were checked through the use of war elephants and skirmishers by the Greek Seleucid king Antiochus I in 275 BC, after which they served as mercenaries across the whole Hellenistic Eastern Mediterranean, including Ptolemaic Egypt, where they, under Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-246 BC), attempted to seize control of the kingdom.[6]\nIn the first Gallic invasion of Greece (279 BC), they achieved victory over the Macedonians and killed the Macedonian king Ptolemy Keraunos. They then focused on looting the rich Macedonian countryside, but avoided the heavily fortified cities. The Macedonian general Sosthenes assembled an army, defeated Bolgius and repelled the invading Gauls.\nIn the second Gaulish invasion of Greece (278 BC), the Gauls, led by Brennos, suffered heavy losses while facing the Greek coalition army at Thermopylae, but helped by the Heracleans they followed the mountain path around Thermopylae to encircle the Greek army in the same way that the Persian army had done at the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BC, but this time deafeating the whole of the Greek army.[7] After passing Thermopylae the Gauls headed for the rich treasury at Delphi, where they were defeated by the re-assembled Greek army. This led to a series of retreats of the Gauls, with devastating losses, all the way up to Macedonia and then out of the Greek mainland. The major part of the Gaul army was defeated in the process, and those Gauls survived were forced to flee from Greece. The Gallic leader Brennos was seriously injured at Delphi and committed suicide there. (He is not to be confused with another Gaulish leader bearing the same name who had sacked Rome a century earlier (390 BC).\nGalatian warEdit\nMain article: Galatian War\nIn 278 BC Gaulish settlers in the Balkans were invited by Nicomedes I of Bithynia to help him in a dynastic struggle against his brother. They numbered about 10,000 fighting men and about the same number of women and children, divided into three tribes, Trocmi, Tolistobogii and Tectosages. They were eventually defeated by the Seleucid king Antiochus I (275 BC), in a battle in which the Seleucid war elephants shocked the Galatians. Although the momentum of the invasion was broken, the Galatians were by no means exterminated, and continued to demand tribute from the Hellenistic states of Anatolia to avoid war. 4,000 Galatians were hired as mercenaries by the Ptolemaic Egyptian king Ptolemy II Philadelphus in 270 BC. According to Pausanias, soon after arrival the Celts plotted \u201cto seize Egypt\u201d, and so Ptolemy marooned them on a deserted island in the Nile River.[6]\nCeltic sword and scabbard circa 60 BC\nGalatians also participated at the victory at Raphia in 217 BC under Ptolemy IV Philopator, and continued to serve as mercenaries for the Ptolemaic dynasty until its demise in 30 BC. They sided with the renegade Seleucid prince Antiochus Hierax, who reigned in Asia Minor. Hierax tried to defeat king Attalus I of Pergamum (241\u2013197 BC), but instead, the Hellenized cities united under Attalus's banner, and his armies inflicted a severe defeat upon the Galatians at the Battle of the Caecus River in 241 BC. After this defeat, the Galatians continued to be a serious threat to the states of Asia Minor. In fact, they continued to be a threat even after their defeat by Gnaeus Manlius Vulso in the Galatian War (189 BC). Galatia declined and at times fell under Pontic ascendancy. They were finally freed by the Mithridatic Wars, in which they supported Rome. In the settlement of 64 BC, Galatia became a client state of the Roman empire, the old constitution disappeared, and three chiefs (wrongly styled \"tetrarchs\") were appointed, one for each tribe. But this arrangement soon gave way before the ambition of one of these tetrarchs, Deiotarus, a contemporary of Cicero and Julius Caesar, who made himself master of the other two tetrarchies and was finally recognized by the Romans as 'king' of Galatia. The Galatian language continued to be spoken in central Anatolia until the 6th century.[8]\nRoman warsEdit\nIn the Second Punic War the famous Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca used Gallic mercenaries in his invasion of Italy. They played a part in some of his most spectacular victories, including the battle of Cannae. The Gauls were so prosperous by the 2nd century that the powerful Greek colony of Massilia had to appeal to the Roman Republic for defense against them. The Romans intervened in southern Gaul in 125 BC, and conquered the area eventually known as Gallia Narbonensis by 121.\nIn 58 BC Julius Caesar launched the Gallic Wars and had conquered the whole of Gaul by 51 BC. He noted that the Gauls (Celtae) were one of the three primary peoples in the area, along with the Aquitanians and the Belgae. Caesar's motivation for the invasion seems to have been his need for gold to pay off his debts and for a successful military expedition to boost his political career. The people of Gaul could provide him with both. So much gold was looted from Gaul that after the war the price of gold fell by as much as 20%. While they were militarily just as brave as the Romans, the internal division between the Gallic tribes guaranteed an easy victory for Caesar, and Vercingetorix's attempt to unite the Gauls against Roman invasion came too late.[9][10] After the annexation of Gaul a mixed Gallo-Roman culture began to emerge.\nRoman GaulEdit\nMain article: Roman Gaul\nThe Gallic Empire (in green), under Tetricus I by 271 AD, included the territories of Germania, Gaul and Britannia.\nAfter more than a century of warfare, the Cisalpine Gauls were subdued by the Romans in the early 2nd century BC. The Transalpine Gauls continued to thrive for another century, and joined the Germanic Cimbri and Teutones in the Cimbrian War, where they defeated and killed a Roman consul at Burdigala in 107 BC, and later became prominent among the rebelling gladiators in the Third Servile War.[11] The Gauls were finally conquered by Julius Caesar in the 50s BC despite a rebellion by the Arvernian chieftain Vercingetorix. During the Roman period the Gauls became assimilated into Gallo-Roman culture and by expanding Germanic tribes. During the crisis of the third century, there was briefly a breakaway Gallic Empire founded by the Batavian general Postumus.\nThe fourth-century Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus wrote that the Gauls were tall, light-skinned, light-haired, and light-eyed:\nAlmost all Gauls are tall and fair-skinned, with reddish hair. Their savage eyes make them fearful objects; they are eager to quarrel and excessively truculent. When, in the course of a dispute, any of them calls in his wife, a creature with gleaming eyes much stronger than her husband, they are more than a match for a whole group of foreigners; especially when the woman, with swollen neck and gnashing teeth, swings her great white arms and begins to deliver a rain of punches mixed with kicks, like missiles launched by the twisted strings of a catapult.[12]\nThe first century BCE Greek historian Diodorus Siculus described them as tall, generally heavily built, very light-skinned, and light-haired, with long hair and mustaches:\nThe Gauls are tall of body, with rippling muscles, and white of skin, and their hair is blond, and not only naturally so, but they make it their practice to increase the distinguishing color by which nature has given it. For they are always washing their hair in limewater, and they pull it back from their forehead to the top of the head and back to the nape of the neck... Some of them shave their beards, but others let it grow a little; and the nobles shave their cheeks, but they let the mustache grow until it covers the mouth. [13]\nJordanes, in his Origins and Deeds of the Goths, indirectly describes the Gauls as light-haired and large-bodied via comparing them to Caledonians, as a contrast to the Spaniards, who he compared to the Silures. He speculates based on this comparison that the Britons originated from different peoples, including the aforementioned Gauls and Spaniards.\nThe Silures have swarthy features and are usually born with curly black hair, but the inhabitants of Caledonia have reddish hair and large loose-jointed bodies. They [the Britons] are like the Gauls and the Spaniards, according as they are opposite either nation. Hence some have supposed that from these lands the island received its inhabitants.\nIn the novel Satyricon, written by Roman courtier Gaius Petronius, a Roman character sarcastically suggests that he and his partner \"chalk our faces so that Gaul may claim us as her own\" in the midst of a rant outlining the problems with his partner's plan of using blackface to impersonate Aethiopians. This suggests that Gauls were thought of on average to be much paler than Romans.[14]\nAll over Gaul, archeology has uncovered numerous pre-Roman gold mines (at least 200 in the Pyrenees), suggesting that they were very rich, also evidenced by large finds of gold coins and artefacts. Also there existed highly developed population centers, called oppida by Caesar, such as Bibracte, Gergovia, Avaricum, Alesia, Bibrax, Manching and others. Modern archeology strongly suggests that the countries of Gaul were quite civilized and very wealthy. Most had contact with Roman merchants and some, particularly those that were governed by Republics such as the Aedui, Helvetii and others, had enjoyed stable political alliances with Rome. They imported Mediterranean wine on an industrial scale, evidenced by large finds of wine vessels in digs all over Gaul, the largest and most famous of which being the one discovered in Vix Grave, which stands 1.63 m (5'4\") in height.\nAgris Helmet.

The druids were not the only political force, however, and the early political system was complex. The fundamental unit of Gallic politics was the tribe, which itself consisted of one or more of what Caesar called \"pagi\".[citation needed] Each tribe had a council of elders, and initially a king. Later, the executive was an annually-elected magistrate.[citation needed] Among the Aedui tribe the executive held the title of \"Vergobret\", a position much like a king, but its powers were held in check by rules laid down by the council.[citation needed]\nThe tribal groups, or pagi as the Romans called them (singular: pagus; the French word pays, \"region\", comes from this term) were organised into larger super-tribal groups that the Romans called civitates. These administrative groupings would be taken over by the Romans in their system of local control, and these civitates would also be the basis of France's eventual division into ecclesiastical bishoprics and dioceses, which would remain in place \u2014 with slight changes \u2014 until the French Revolution.\nAlthough the tribes were moderately stable political entities, Gaul as a whole tended to be politically divided, there being virtually no unity among the various tribes. Only during particularly trying times, such as the invasion of Caesar, could the Gauls unite under a single leader like Vercingetorix. Even then, however, the faction lines were clear.\nThe Romans divided Gaul broadly into Provincia (the conquered area around the Mediterranean), and the northern Gallia Comata (\"free Gaul\" or \"wooded Gaul\"). Caesar divided the people of Gaulia Comata into three broad groups: the Aquitani; Galli (who in their own language were called Celtae); and Belgae. In the modern sense, Gaulish tribes are defined linguistically, as speakers of dialects of the Gaulish language. While the Aquitani were probably Vascons, the Belgae would thus probably be counted among the Gaulish tribes, perhaps with Germanic elements.\nJulius Caesar, in his book, Commentarii de Bello Gallico, comments:\nAll Gaul is divided into three parts, one of which the Belgae inhabit, the Aquitani another, whereas those who in their own language are called Celts and in ours Gauls, the third.\nAll these differ from each other in language, customs and laws.\nThe Garonne River separates the Gauls from the Aquitani; the River Marne and the River Seine separate them from the Belgae.\nOf all these, the Belgae are the bravest, because they are furthest from the civilisation and refinement of (our) Province, and merchants least frequently resort to them, and import those things which tend to effeminate the mind; and they are the nearest to the Germani, who dwell beyond the Rhine, with whom they are continually waging war; for which reason the Helvetii also surpass the rest of the Gauls in valour, as they contend with the Germani in almost daily battles, when they either repel them from their own territories, or themselves wage war on their frontiers. One part of these, which it has been said that the Gauls occupy, takes its beginning at the River Rh\u00f4ne; it is bounded by the River Garonne, the Atlantic Ocean, and the territories of the Belgae; it borders, too, on the side of the Sequani and the Helvetii, upon the River Rhine, and stretches toward the north.\nThe Belgae rises from the extreme frontier of Gaul, extend to the lower part of the River Rhine; and look toward the north and the rising sun.\nAquitania extends from the Garonne to the Pyrenees and to that part of the Atlantic (Bay of Biscay) which is near Spain: it looks between the setting of the sun, and the north star.\nJulius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico, Book I, chapter 1\nMain article: Gaulish language\nGaulish or Gallic is the name given to the Celtic language that was spoken in Gaul before the Latin of the late Roman Empire became dominant in Roman Gaul. According to Julius Caesar in his Commentaries on the Gallic War, it was one of three languages in Gaul, the others being Aquitanian and Belgic.[15] In Gallia Transalpina, a Roman province by the time of Caesar, Latin was the language spoken since at least the previous century. Gaulish is paraphyletically grouped with Celtiberian, Lepontic, and Galatian as Continental Celtic. The Lepontic language and the Galatian language are sometimes considered to be dialects of Gaulish.\nThe exact time of the final extinction of Gaulish is unknown, but it is estimated to have been around or shortly after the middle of the 1st millennium.[16] Gaulish may have survived in some regions as the mid to late 6th century in France.[17] Despite considerable Romanization of the local material culture, the Gaulish language is held to have survived and had coexisted with spoken Latin during the centuries of Roman rule of Gaul.[17] Coexisting with Latin, Gaulish played a role in shaping the Vulgar Latin dialects that developed into French, with effects including loanwords and calques[18][19], sound changes shaped by Gaulish influence[20][21], and well as in conjugation and word order.[18][19][22] Recent work in computational simulation suggests that Gaulish played a role in gender shifts of words in Early French, where by the gender would shift to match the gender of the corresponding Gaulish word with the same meaning.[23]\nTaranis (with Celtic wheel and thunderbolt), Le Chatelet, Gourzon, Haute-Marne, France.\nMain article: Celtic polytheism\nThe Gauls practiced a form of animism, ascribing human characteristics to lakes, streams, mountains, and other natural features and granting them a quasi-divine status. Also, worship of animals was not uncommon; the animal most sacred to the Gauls was the boar, which can be found on many Gallic military standards, much like the Roman eagle.\nTheir system of gods and goddesses was loose, there being certain deities which virtually every Gallic person[citation needed] worshiped, as well as tribal and household gods. Many of the major gods were related to Greek gods; the primary god worshiped at the time of the arrival of Caesar was Teutates, the Gallic equivalent of Mercury. The \"father god\" in Gallic worship was \"Dis Pater\". However, there is no record of a theology[citation needed], just a set of related and evolving traditions of worship.\nPerhaps the most intriguing facet of Gallic religion is the practice of the Druids. There is no certainty concerning their origin, but it is clear that they vehemently guarded the secrets of their order and held sway over the people of Gaul. Indeed, they claimed the right to determine questions of war and peace, and thereby held an \"international\" status. In addition, the Druids monitored the religion of ordinary Gauls and were in charge of educating the aristocracy. They also practiced a form of excommunication from the assembly of worshippers, which in ancient Gaul meant a separation from secular society as well. Thus the Druids were an important part of Gallic society.\nList of Gaulish tribesEdit\nSee also: List of Celtic tribes\nAfter completing the conquest of Gaul, Rome converted most of these tribes into civitates, making for the administrative map of the Roman provinces of Gaul. This was then perpetuated by the early church, whose geographical subdivisions were based on those of late Roman Gaul, and lasted into the areas of French dioceses prior to the French Revolution.\nSculpture of an armoured torc-wearing Gaul warrior, Vach\u00e8res, France.\nCeltic cross, in Chambon-sur-Lac, Auvergne, France.\nVercing\u00e9torix Memorial in Alesia, near the village of Alise-Sainte-Reine, France.\nAedui Bibracte\nAllobroges Vienne\nAmbarri near junction of Rh\u00f4ne & Sa\u00f4ne rivers\nAmbiani Amiens\nAndecavi Angers\nAquitani Bordeaux\nArverni Gergovia (La Roche-Blanche)\nAtrebates Arras\nBaiocasses Bayeux\nBelgae Gallia Belgica\nBoii Boii (Boui near Entrain)\nBoii Boates Boates (La Teste-de-Buch)\nBoii Bologna\nBellovaci Beauvais\nBituriges Bourges\nBrannovices near M\u00e2con?\nCadurci Cahors (Uxellodunum - Puy d'Issolud, Saint-Denis-l\u00e8s-Martel/Vayrac)\nCarni Aquileia\nCarnutes Chartres ; Orl\u00e9ans\nCatalauni Ch\u00e2lons-en-Champagne\nCaturiges Chorges\nCenomani Le Mans\nCenomani Brescia\nCeutrones Mo\u00fbtiers\nCuriosolitae Corseul\nDiablintes Jublains\nEburones Tongeren\nEburovices \u00c9vreux\nHelvetii La T\u00e8ne\nInsubres Milan\nLaevi Pavia\nLemovices Limoges\nLexovii Lisieux\nLingones Langres\nMediomatrici Metz\nMedulli M\u00e9doc\nMedulli Vienne\nMenapii Cassel\nMorini Boulogne-sur-Mer\nNamnetes Nantes\nNervii Bavay\nOrobii Bergamo\nOsismii Vorgium\nParisii Paris\nPetrocorii P\u00e9rigueux\nPictones Poitiers\nRaurici Kaiseraugst (Augusta Raurica)\nRedones Rennes\nRemi Reims\nRuteni Rodez\nSalassi Aosta\nSantones Saintes\nSegusini Susa\nSenones Sens\nSequani Besan\u00e7on\nSuessiones Soissons\nTaurini Turin\nTigurini Yverdon\nTolosates Toulouse\nTreveri Trier\nTricastini[24] Saint-Paul-Trois-Ch\u00e2teaux (Augusta tricast(r)inorum)\nTungri Tongeren\nTurones Tours\nUnelli Coutances\nVangiones Worms\nVeliocasses Rouen\nVellavi Ruessium\nVeneti Vannes\nVertamocorii Novara\nViducasses Vieux\nVindelici Augusta Vindelicorum\nVocontii Vaison-la-Romaine\nVolcae Arecomici Languedoc\nModern receptionEdit\nThe Gauls played a certain role in the national historiography and national identity of modern France. Attention given to the Gauls as the founding population of the French nation was traditionally second to that enjoyed by the Franks, out of whose kingdom the historical kingdom of France arose under the Capetian dynasty; for example, Charles de Gaulle is on record as stating, \"For me, the history of France begins with Clovis, elected as king of France by the tribe of the Franks, who gave their name to France. Before Clovis, we have Gallo-Roman and Gaulish prehistory. The decisive element, for me, is that Clovis was the first king to have been baptized a Christian. My country is a Christian country and I reckon the history of France beginning with the accession of a Christian king who bore the name of the Franks.\" [25]\nHowever, the dismissal of \"Gaulish prehistory\" as irrelevant for French national identity has been far from universal. Pre-Roman Gaul has been evoked as a template for French independence especially during the Third French Republic. An iconic phrase summarizing this view is that of \"our ancestors the Gauls\" (nos anc\u00eatres les Gaulois), associated with the history textbook for schools by Ernest Lavisse (1842-1922), who taught that \"the Romans established themselves in small numbers; the Franks were not numerous either, Clovis having but a few thousand men with him. The basis of our population has thus remained Gaulish. The Gauls are our ancestors.\"[26]\nAst\u00e9rix, the popular series of French comic books following the exploits of a village of \"indomitable Gauls\", satirizes this view by combining scenes set in classical antiquity with modern ethnic clich\u00e9s of the French and other nations.\nSimilarly, in Swiss national historiography of the 19th century, the Gaulish Helvetii were chosen as representing the ancestral Swiss population (compare Helvetia as national allegory), as the Helvetii had settled in both the French and the German-speaking parts of Switzerland, and their Gaulish language set them apart from Latin- and German-speaking populations in equal measure.\n^ a b \"Gaul (ancient region, Europe)\".

        "raw_content": "Botticelli (game)\nBotticelli is a guessing game which requires the players to have a good knowledge of biographical details of famous people. The game has several variants, but the common theme is that one person or team thinks of a famous person, reveals their initial letter, and then answers yes/no questions to allow other players to guess the identity.\nThe game takes its name from the famous person having to be at least as famous as Sandro Botticelli, who is also the answer to the archetypal question, \"Did you paint a picture of Venus rising?\", referring to his painting The Birth of Venus.\n1.1 Indirect mode\n1.2 Direct mode\n2.1 Stumping\n2.2 Confirmation requirement\n2.3 Additional letters\n3 Games similar to Botticelli\n4 Botticelli in popular culture\nOne player (the chooser) is selected to think of a famous person (the identity). This person should be someone the chooser is comfortable answering biographical questions about, and someone the chooser is very confident that the other players will all have heard of; obscure identities make for frustrating game play, especially with young players. The rule of thumb is that the person should be at least as famous or well known as Sandro Botticelli, hence the name of the game. Fictional characters are acceptable, but can present certain difficulties. In some contexts, a non-famous person with whom all the players are familiar may be acceptable.\nThe chooser then announces the initial letter of the name by which the person is usually known; for non-fictional characters, this is usually the last name. For example, if the chooser chose Sandro Botticelli, then the initial letter would be B. Names such as Michael Douglas might generate argument, as only the two names together identify the person. A first name such as Elvis (who might be Presley or Costello) can be chosen, where it is a well known identifier. For the purposes of phrasing questions and answers, the chooser adopts the chosen identity.\nThe game has two modes \u2014 direct mode and indirect mode \u2014 and starts in indirect mode.\nIndirect mode[edit]\nIn indirect mode, the guessers take turns (either in sequence or informally) to think of someone with the designated initial letter. These guesser choices do not have to conform to any other information so far acquired about the chooser's identity (e.g. male, non-fiction, still alive).\nEach guesser asks the chooser a yes/no question using some detail of the guesser's choice. For example, if the letter is B then the guesser might choose Yul Brynner and ask, \"Are you bald?\" At this point, the chooser has three possible responses:\n\"No, I am not Frank Black.\" \u2014 The chooser has either guessed the guesser's chosen person, or has thought of another person who fits the same criteria. (Even if the guesser was thinking of the chooser's chosen person, a correct \"No I am not\" that names a different person is allowed, if it fits the questioned criteria.) The game remains in indirect mode, and moves to the next guesser.\n\"Yes, I am Yul Brynner.\" \u2014 The chooser's identity meets the criterion of the guesser's question, and the chooser cannot think of anyone else who satisfies it. The guesser wins.\n\"No, and I don't know who you're thinking of.\" \u2014 The chooser can't think of someone meeting the criteria. The guesser reveals their answer, and the game changes to direct mode.\nGuessers can use indirect mode to guess the chooser's identity directly (e.g. \"Are you Yul Brynner?\")\nThe bar for guesser choices is lower than that for the chooser's identity; it is not essential for the chooser to have heard of the person, or to know the relevant biographical detail, but guessers should not deliberately exploit this provision. The ideal guesser question is one where the chooser says, \"D'oh! I should have gotten that,\" when the answer is revealed.\nDirect mode[edit]\nIn direct mode, the guesser whose choice enabled the mode switch gets to ask a series of yes/no questions about the chooser's identity, as in standard Twenty Questions. Direct mode continues until the chooser answers \"no\" to a question.\nIf the chooser does not know the answer to a direct mode question, or the question does not permit a clear-cut yes/no answer, then the chooser answers as accurately as possible, and the game remains in direct mode. There are some conventions for answering contextually inappropriate direct mode questions; for example, fictional characters are usually deemed to be dead if their death has been recorded.\nSome variants allow only a single direct mode question before returning to indirect mode, regardless of the answer, as the reward for the guesser. Coupled with the confirmation requirement, this allows for long, intellectual games.\nThe game ends when a guesser successfully determines the chooser's identity. That guesser then becomes the chooser, a new identity and letter are chosen and the game starts again in indirect mode. If the successful guess was suggested by a non-designated guesser in direct mode, then it is normal courtesy for the designated guesser to defer to the other player.\nIf all guessers give up before winning, then the chooser reveals the identity. The guessers then determine (by majority) whether the choice was a good one (that is, they should all have known of the character and the chooser's answers in direct mode were reasonably accurate). The role of chooser then remains with the same player, or passes to another player (e.g. clockwise) as appropriate. It is considered bad form for one guesser to hold out after everyone else has given up.\nStumping[edit]\nThis variant is particularly useful as a pastime for long trips, since a single round can sometimes last over an hour. As in the standard version, the chooser picks a famous person or character and provides an initial (for example, if the chooser picked Sandro Botticelli, he or she would provide the letter \"B\"). The guesser must then think of a trivia question which can be answered by a word beginning with that letter, so in our example the guesser might ask, \"What is the most populous country in South America?\", the answer being \"Brazil.\" The answer to the question must be something the chooser could reasonably know, not something personal to the guesser (e.g. \"What was the name of my invisible friend when I was five?\") or anything otherwise impossible to guess. If the chooser answers correctly, the guesser must think of another question. If the chooser is stumped and cannot answer, the guesser may ask a single yes-or-no question (as in direct mode of the standard version) about the person or character. Once the chooser answers the question, the guesser must stump the chooser again before asking another direct question. Generally, guessing the identity of the person or character counts as a direct question and can only be done after the chooser is stumped; however, in the interest of shortening the game, players sometimes will guess the person without having first stumped the chooser.\nConfirmation requirement[edit]\nIn one variation, the game only moves to direct mode if, after the chooser fails or gives up, another guesser can successfully identify the subject of the question. This provides a built-in standard for whether the question posed by the guesser was fair.\nAdditional letters[edit]\nOne variation rewards stumping the chooser (but not fellow guessers) with an additional letter in the chosen person's name. This can make for quicker gameplay.\nGames similar to Botticelli[edit]\nVermicelli, in which the thing to be guessed is a food rather than a person.\nVespucci, in which the thing to be guessed is a place.\nWebster, a challenging variant in which the thing to be guessed can be any word.\nContact, Webster with stumping and adding letters. If one of the players knows the answer to the question asked to stump the chooser, he makes \"contact\" with the asker of the question. The two players say \"contact\" and count to ten. If the chooser cannot guess the answer before then he must reveal the next letter. There is no direct mode.\nBotticelli in popular culture[edit]\nIn John Updike's 1968 novel Couples, the protagonists play a version of Botticelli in which responses to guesses give broad hints to aspects of the Identity, but without giving the name away. The pattern of answers shows the reader facets of the individuals' characters and the relationships evolving between them.\nThe 1968 TV film Prescription: Murder, which introduced the character of Columbo, begins with the murderer (Gene Barry), an arrogant psychiatrist, stumping party guests in a game of Botticelli by choosing Josef Breuer, an obscure Nineteenth-Century neurophysiologist.\nNapoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin while away waiting time by playing Botticelli in several novels by David McDaniel based on the 1960s television series The Man from U.N.C.L.E..\nA 1971 short play by Terrence McNally called Botticelli features two American soldiers playing the game while fighting in the Vietnam War.\nIn an episode of the 1980s TV comedy The Young Ones, Rick attempts to teach the game to his housemates, unsuccessfully.\nIn An Acceptable Time, a 1989 young adult science fiction novel by Madeleine L'Engle, the protagonist Poly plays the game with her family and family friends.\nIn episode 8 of season 19 (2007) of The Simpsons, Cecil (Sideshow Bob's brother) begins to tell Bart how he and Bob used to play the game and begins to discuss the play before concurring with Bart's earlier comment that it is boring.\nIn Thomas Pynchon's novel The Crying of Lot 49, protagonist Oedipa Maas plays a game they call \"Strip Botticelli\" with lawyer Metzger in her motel room.\nIn an episode of the TV series Malcolm in the Middle, Malcolm plays Botticelli with the family of a girl he is dating.\nAt the beginning of \"The Vegas Renormalization\", a 2009 episode of The Big Bang Theory, Howard, Sheldon, Leonard, and Raj play Botticelli.\nhttps://web.archive.org/web/20050204153050/http://open-site.org/Games/Knowledge_Games/Botticelli/\nhttps://web.archive.org/web/20050409202027/http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/~davea/games.html\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Botticelli_(game)&oldid=862721460\"",

When the null is rejected, residual analyses are conducted to identify cells in which observed frequencies differ significantly from expected frequencies. Residual analyses are thus conditioned on a significant omnibus test. Conditional approaches have been shown to substantially alter type I error rates in cases involving t tests conditional on the results of a test of equality of variances, or tests of regression coefficients conditional on the results of tests of heteroscedasticity. We show that residual analyses conditional on a significant omnibus test are also affected by this problem, yielding type I error rates that can be up to 6 times larger than nominal rates, depending on the size of the table and the form of the marginal distributions. We explored several unconditional approaches in search for a method that maintains the nominal type I error rate and found out that a bootstrap correction for multiple testing achieved this goal. The validity of this approach is documented for two-way contingency tables in the contexts of tests of independence, tests of homogeneity, and fitting psychometric functions. Computer code in MATLAB and R to conduct these analyses is provided as Supplementary Material.\nContingency tables; Residual analysis; Chi-square tests; Multiple testing; Bootstrap",

In this review, we offer a general overview on the most relevant synthetic approaches for the covalent and non-covalent functionalization and characterization of GBMs. Moreover, some representative examples of the incorporation into GBMs of electroactive units such as porphyrins, phthalocyanines, or ferrocene, among others, affording electron donor\u2013acceptor (D\u2013A) hybrids are presented. For the latter systems, the photophysical characterization of their ground- and excited-state features has also been included, paying particular attention to elucidate the fundamental dynamics of the energy transfer and charge separation processes of these hybrids. For some of the presented architectures, their application in solar energy conversion schemes and energy production has been also discussed.\nCiencias > Qu\u00edmica > Qu\u00edmica org\u00e1nica",

The program goal was to provide intensive staff development to 275 school personnel, from all segments of the educational community, in the skills and information necessary to provide substance abuse prevention education to students and to mobilize parents in preventive efforts. Training was to be evaluated through administering pre- and post-tests to staff participants. In-class observations were also to be conducted to assess the extent to which staff members were able to translate program training into lessons for students. The primary means of achieving proposal goals were through workshops and training programs. The content of staff development activities included information on substance abuse and related issues, strategies for building self esteem, student activities designed to encourage critical thinking about drugs and sociopolitical issues, and ways of enabling students to pursue creative activities. Much of the material was age-specific and culturally sensitive. Data submitted to the Office of Educational Research (OER), for program evaluation were survey material from workshops and records of program activities.

        "raw_content": "From Data to Bonuses: A Case Study of the Issues Related to Awarding Teachers Pay on the Basis of Their Students' Progress. Working Paper 2008-14\nMcCaffrey, Daniel F.; Han, Bing; Lockwood, J. R.\nNational Center on Performance Incentives , Paper prepared for \"Performance Incentives: Their Growing Impact on American K-12 Education\" (Nashville, TN, Feb 29, 2008)\nA key component to the new wave of performance-based pay initiatives is the use of student achievement data to evaluate teacher performance. As greater amounts of student achievement data are being collected, researchers have been developing and applying innovative statistical and econometric models to longitudinal data to develop measures of an individual teacher's contributions to his or her students' learning. These models are generally referred to as value-added models. A few studies have compared subsets of the various value-added estimators of teacher performance, but few have considered the alternative explicitly in the context of using the estimates as the basis of performance-based pay. Moreover, there has been little consideration of aspects of the process of generating performance measures and using them to award teacher bonuses or make other compensation decisions. This paper directly addresses these issues, as it describes the process of taking a large administrative database of student test scores and class assignments and turning it into bonus decisions for teachers. The choices to be made at each step of the process are illuminated with careful consideration of impact on the types of teachers who receive awards, the choice of performance measures, and decision rules for awarding bonuses.

Despite meager funding and a lack of public recognition, these educational institutions are producing a large share of the nation's African American graduates in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Against the odds, HBCUs have proven that they are ready and able to increase African-American graduates in the sciences. The nation now must invest more in science and science education programs at HBCUs. Scientists in all disciplines at traditionally white universities and public facilities should look for new ways to build mutually beneficial partnerships with HBCUs and to expand opportunities for HBCU undergraduates to have \"graduate-level\" internships during summers. These efforts will benefit HBCUs and their students, but equally importantly, they will build future potential for the nation's economic growth and for the vitality of the science communities.

        "title": "A Comprehensive Ethical Analysis of the Copenhagen Accord. | Ethics and Climate",
        "raw_content": "As Copenhagen approached, optimism about a Copenhagen deal faded although there was a short spurt of renewed hope several weeks before the conference started as the US, China, and a few other nations publicly made commitments on emissions reductions.\nThe Copenhagen meeting was attended by 110 heads of state, hundreds of ministers from every part of the world, as well as thousands of registrants from nongovernmental organizations, the media, UN agencies \u2013 more than 40,000 people in a facility with a capacity of 15,000. During most of the two weeks, little progress was made with many sessions memorable for acrimonious exchanges between developing and developed countries.\nThroughout the two weeks in Copenhagen, attendees from poor, at-risk countries could be heard despairingly describing killer droughts and growing deserts in Africa, loss of glacier-fed water supplies on which their agriculture depends for millions in Central Asia and South America, and rising seas that are now threatening the very existence of small island states. Suffering caused by the human-induced warming that that the Earth has already experienced is now visible around the world although mostly in poor developing countries. Because warming is expected to accelerate in the years ahead, for many poor countries climate change is now understood to be an urgent matter of life and death.\nAs ClimateEthics explained in an earlier post, the Copenhagen meeting was different than previous COPs for the noticeable increase in attention paid to the ethics and justice dimensions of climate change and adaptation needs. See, ClimateEthics, Two Climate Change Matters Move To Center Stage In Copenhagen With Profound Implications for Developed Nations: Ethics and Adaptation, http://climateethics.org/?p=331.\nYet, as we shall see, none of this appeared to motivate developed nations to make commitments to reduce GHG emissions consistent with what science claims necessary to protect those most vulnerable to climate change.\nDuring the Copenhagen conference representatives from poor vulnerable nations begged developed countries to: (a) commit to reduce GHG emissions to levels necessary to prevent dangerous climate change. and (b) to fund adaptation programs in developing countries that are necessary to protect the most vulnerable from climate change impacts that could be avoided and compensate for damages that could not be avoided.\nDespite these pleas, not much happened during the conference to resolve the most contentious issues until US President Obama appeared on the morning of the last day, Friday, December 18, 2009. For much of that day, President Obama negotiated with Chinese premier Wen Jiabao, Brazilian president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and South African President Jacob Zuma.(Lerer, 2009) Yet, a large part of this time of these negotiations was focused on a dispute between the United States and China on whether China would agree to monitoring and verification of Chinese climate change commitments.\nPresident Obama could not commit to anything in Copenhagen that he could not get through the US congress. Because a climate change bill that had passed the US House was very weak compared to what science says was necessary to protect the world\u2019s poorest people, the United States took a position in the lead-up to Copenhagen that continued to be the weakest of all the developed countries on emissions reductions.\nBecause none of the developed countries were willing to make emissions reduction commitments congruent with what science was saying was necessary to protect them, some of the most vulnerable developing countries saw the developed countries\u2019 positions as ominous, perhaps a death sentence.\nThe United States was not alone among developed countries in refusing to make emissions reductions commitments consistent with what science was saying was necessary to prevent dangerous climate change. In fact as ClimatEthics has explained in a previous post, no developed country made such a commitment in the lead-up to Copenhagen. See, Ethical Failures of National GHG Emissions Reduction Proposals Approaching Copenhagen,http://climateethics.org/?p=147.\nA notable example of the acrimony between developed and developing countries during the pre-Copenhagen period were a provision that had been inserted in the negotiating text that claimed that developed countries were responsible for \u201cecological debt.\u201d As we shall see, this assertion was strongly rejected by Todd Stern, lead US climate negotiator, who said: \u201cI actually completely reject the notion of a debt or reparations or anything of the like.'(Roberts, 2009) In addition, US negotiator Jonathan Pershing further said, \u201cThe donor countries have only so much largesse.\u201d This statement appeared to be premised on the idea that the United States has no obligations to developing countries for past pollution and that payments to developing countries for adaptation are simply a mater of charity.\nIn response to this denial of historical responsibility for climate change, Vandana Shiva, a prominent social activist for developing countries, said: \u201cI think it is time for the United States to stop seeing itself as a donor and recognizing itself as a polluter, a polluter who must pay for its pollution and its ecological debt. This is not about charity. This is about justice.\u201d (Roberts, 2009)\nPresident Obama personally negotiated the Copenhagen Accord during last hours of the conference. Yet, to get this deal, President Obama had to ignore many of the positions of the most vulnerable nations that were unresolved in the two negotiating documents that had been created in the lead-up to Copenhagen, the documents known as AWG-KP and AWG-LCA.\nAlthough the United States was unwilling to acknowledge financial responsibility for climate change, President Obama was at least willing to recognize that the United States should make commitments on emissions reductions and funding, a profound change from the prior US administration. Most likely because of a potential future, but yet unrealized, new US direction, President Obama managed to obtain support from many nations including some prominent developing countries on the Copenhagen Accord, the non-binding, political statement that emerged from the Obama-led negotiations.\nDespite growing scientific evidence that the world is running out of time to protect the poorest people in the world from the harsh impacts of climate change, the best the international community could do in Copenhagen was to agree on the weak, compared to what was hoped for, non-binding document, the Copenhagen Accord.\nPolitically President Obama\u2019s hands were tied in the negotiations because of domestic political constraints.\nMost observers believed that there was little hope of getting meaningful US domestic climate change legislation through the US congress without being able to argue that China was on track to make GHG emissions reductions also. And so, for domestic political reasons, moving China on climate change in Copenhagen was important.\nThose opposing climate change legislation in the United States often have argued that it would be unfair to the United States if it was bound to reduce GHG emissions and China was not required to do the same. In fact, a decade earlier, when the Kyoto Accord was under consideration in the United States, opponents of the Kyoto deal frequently ran TV commercials that argued that the Kyoto Protocol was unfair to the United States because China was excluded from emissions limitations. This argument was often made without visible critical comment in the United States even though the United States had committed itself to take the first steps to reduce emissions along with other developed countries under the UNFCCC. For instance, the Heritage Foundation argued that the Kyoto Protocol should not be ratified because the Protocol excluded developing countries from binding emissions reductions including China. (Coon, 2001).\nWhen China became the world\u2019s largest emitter in terms of total tons of GHGs in the fall of 2008, this fact was widely publicized in the United States as if China had moved into first place in terms of global responsibility. The US press frequently announced that China had become the largest polluter, a fact that ignored that the United States emits more than four times the amount of GHG than China on a per capita basis.\nAlthough President Obama originally negotiated the Accord with just four other countries, in the last few hours of the Copenhagen conference the United States successfully convinced most large emitting countries to support the Accord including China, India, Brazil, South Africa, U.K., France, Australia, Germany, the E.U., Japan, Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Russia, Mexico, Spain, South Korea, Norway, the Maldives, Columbia, and Indonesia.\nAs a result, in the wee hours of Saturday mourning, the Copenhagen parties agreed to reference the Copenhagen Accord in a COP decision that \u201ctook note\u201d of the Copenhagen. The COP \u201ctook note\u201d of the Copenhagen Accord rather than adopting it because a consensus was not possible and decisions by a COP require a consensus. At least 25 countries that were asked by the COP President to participate in a high level meeting of the \u201cfriends of the President\u201d eventually accepted the Accord, at least four Parties spoke out against it (Tuvalu, Sudan, Bolivia, and Venezuela). (Werksman, 2009)\nThe Copenhagen Accord will not solve the climate change crisis as even President Obama acknowledged because it does not contain commitments necessary to avoid dangerous climate change nor deal adequately with other issues including GHG gases coming from deforestation and adaptation issues.\nThe Copenhagen Accords is a three page document whose most significant elements are:\no Long-Term Goals: The parties agreed that deep cuts in global emissions are required according to science and as documented by the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report, with a view to reducing global emissions in order to limit the increase in global temperature to below 2\u00b0C. The agreement also calls for an assessment of the implementation of the Accord to be completed by 2015 including examining whether the long-term goal should be a temperature rise of 1.5\u00b0C.\no Adaptation: The document states that adaptation to the adverse effects of climate change and the potential impacts of response measures is a challenge faced by all countries, and that enhanced action and international cooperation on adaptation are urgently required in developing countries, especially in the least developed countries, the small island states, and Africa. The parties to the Accord also agree that developed countries shall provide adequate, predictable and sustainable financial resources, technology and capacity building to support adaptation.\no Financing For Poor Nations: The document provides that developed countries shall set a goal of mobilizing jointly $100 billion a year by 2020 to address the needs of developing countries and that the funds will come from a wide variety of sources, public and private, bilateral and multilateral. An annex carries the following short-term financing pledges from developed countries for 2010-2012: EU \u2013 $10.6 billion. Japan \u2013 $11 billion. United States \u2013 $3.6 billion\no\tEmissions Reductions: The document provides for countries to voluntarily commit to GHG mitigation plans in two separate annexes, one for developed country targets and the other for the voluntary pledges of major developing countries. The developed countries committed to implement individually or jointly quantified emissions reductions targets for 2020 to be submitted by 31 January 2010. The developing countries may identify commitments that will be included in the annex to the Copenhagen Accord. Neither developed nor developing country commitments under the Accord are legally binding.\no\tVerification of Climate Change Promises. A sticking point for a deal, largely because China refused to accept international controls, the section on monitoring of developing nation pledges is one of the the agreement\u2019s most significant provisions. The document provides that emerging economies must monitor their efforts and report the results to the United Nations every two years, with some international checks to meet Western transparency concerns but \u201cto ensure that national sovereignty is respected.\u201d\no\tForest Protection. The accord \u201crecognizes the importance of reducing emission from deforestation and forest degradation and the need to enhance removals or greenhouse gas emission by forests,\u201d and agrees to provide \u201cpositive incentives\u201d to fund such action with financial resources from the developed world.\nIII. Arguments For and Against Conclusions That Copenhagen Was A Disaster or A Positive Step Forward.\nThe Copenhagen Accord has triggered serious disputes among world leaders, academicians, journalists, and participants as to whether it was an unmitigated disaster or a positive step toward finally dealing with climate change.\nFor instance, sharply negative assessment of the Copenhagen has been made by John Sauven, executive director of Greenpeace UK, who said at the conclusion of Copenhagen: \u201cThe city of Copenhagen is a crime scene tonight, with the guilty men and women fleeing to the airport. (BBC, 2009).\nJames Curran, the director of science at the one of the Scottish government\u2019s top advisors on climate change said \u201cIt really couldn\u2019t be any more serious,\u201d and \u201cIt\u2019s staggeringly frightening and deeply disappointing that Copenhagen has failed. This is extremely dangerous for Scotland and the world.\u201d (Herald Scotland, 2009)\nYet, even though almost all commentators that have drawn positive conclusions about the Accord have also expressed some reservations about this agreement, some have concluded that on balance it was a positive step.\nFor instance, Andrew Light of the Center for American Progress said about the Copenhagen Accord: \u201d The truth right now is that this agreement is not only meaningful but potentially groundbreaking.\u201d (Light, 2009)\nSimilarly Robert Stavins from the Harvard Environmental Economics Programs concluded that the Copenhagen Accord was probably a good thing because \u201cleaders took the reins of the procedures and brought the negotiations to a fruitful conclusion, and because the foundation was laid for a broad-based coalition of the willing to address effectively the threat of global climate change.\u201d (Stavins, 2009)\nIn a like manner, David Doniger, policy director NRDC climate center, said that the Copenhagen Accord was a big step forward.\nAnd so some environmental NGOs are split about whether the Copenhagen Accord was a disaster or a positive step forward.\nOn the one hand, a strong case cane be made that Copenhagen was an immense global catastrophe because the two week meeting:\no\tDid not produce any legally binding, enforceable global deal that met the objectives of the meeting including.\no\tDid not achieve greenhouse gas reductions commitments congruent with what science is now saying is necessary to protect the most vulnerable people in the world and avoid dangerous climate change.\no\tAllowed big countries to block a 1.5 oC atmospheric stabilization target desired by the most vulnerable developing countries. Although the text sets an unenforceable goal of 2 oC and allows for a review of whether a 1.5 oC target is necessary, this review does not take place for 5 years and most scientists argue that global emissions must peak before this to avoid catastrophic climate change..\no\tAbandoned much of the UNFCCC approach to climate change set process out in the architecture of the Kyoto Protocol.\no\tReached no agreement on an emissions baseline year so that some nations including the United States were able to make reductions commitments from 2005 despite the fact that most of the world had agreed to 1990 as the baseline year under the Kyoto Protocol.\no\tProduced the Accord, an outcome that angered many developing countries whose positions were set out in detail in the texts that had been under negotiation for two years before Copenhagen.\no\tDid not significantly move forward on the institutional issues related to deforestation programs, technology transfer, or capacity building. Many issues in the negotiating text on these issues were ignored.\no\tIgnored hundreds of pages of negotiating text through the production of a three-page Accord without consulting most of the parties that had been negotiating the text.\no\tPut into jeopardy, the international trading flexibility mechanisms that had come into existence under the Kyoto Protocol.\no\tDropped the objective of finalizing a legally binding treaty in 2010 in Mexico City\no\tProduced a final document, the Accord that contains no rules on how it will be governed.\no\tDid not achieve specific commitments for adaptation or other financing needs of developing countries.\no\tMade no progress on the UNFCCC promise that developed countries should reduce their emissions based \u201cequity\u2019 to prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.\nArguments that have been made that Copenhagen Accord was a positive step forward have noted that the agreement:\no\tBroke through years of negotiating gridlock to achieve critical goals of a needed an international climate change agreement.\no\tProvides real cuts in heat-trapping carbon pollution by all of the world\u2019s big emitters.\no\tEstablishes a transparent framework for evaluating countries\u2019 performance against their commitments.\no\tStarts a new flow of financial resources to help poor and vulnerable nations cope with climate impacts, protect their forests, and adopt clean energy technologies.\no\tBinds emission pathways to halt warming over 2 oC. In fact, the Accord is the first international agreement to promise consideration of limiting warming to 1.5 oC.\no\tAchieved targets and policy announcements from big developing countries that would have been unthinkable a year ago.\no\tProvides a transparent way of assessing the progress of developing countries GHG commitments.\no\tBy bringing in developing countries, enhanced the US congress\u2019s prospects to pass domestic climate change legislation.\no\tMade movement on a global agreement that would not have happened without the Accord because the UNFCCC process was unworkable and if the parties continued to follow it, deadlock was inevitable.\no\tManaged to isolate several obstructionist countries including Saudi Arabia and Venezuela who are oil producing countries.\no\tMade China into a major world player and made this country accountable.\no\tElevated India, Brazil and South Africa to the climate change world stage.\no\tAlthough it did not get all nations to agree to an international climate regime, provided an agreement among the largest emitters.\nIV. Analysis of the \u201cDisaster or Step Forward\u201d Controversy\nIt would appear that the strongest reasons given for concluding that the Copenhagen Accord was a positive step forward are most firmly grounded on the notions that: (1) following the normal international negotiation process under UNFCCC would have led to political deadlock, and (2) the Accord brought high-emitting developing countries into an international climate change process thus helping the US with pending domestic climate change legislation.\nYet the deadlock that was evident in the lead-up to Copenhagen was largely caused by huge gaps between developed and developing world positions. Many vulnerable developing countries, for instance, called on developed countries to make aggressive, legally binding commitments to reduce their GHG emissions based upon equity and capped at levels that would protect the most vulnerable poor countries from climate change effects.\nDeveloping countries also wanted developed countries to commit to hundreds of billions of dollars a year in new, predictable funding for adaptation, prevention of deforestation programs, and technology transfer.\nIn fact, as ClimateEthics has explained in a prior post, developing country demands for adaptation funding were noticeably stronger in Copenhagen than in prior COPs. See, Two Climate Change Matters Move To Center Stage In Copenhagen With Profound Implications for Developed Nations: Ethcs and Adaptation, http://climateethics.org/?p=331 As we noted in this prior post, the two-week Copenhagen negotiations were marked by many meetings and speeches devoted to the justice dimensions of climate change, particularly regarding the need for developed countries to make emissions reductions commitments congruent with what science was saying was necessary to avoid dangerous climate change and to contribute significant amount of funding for adaptation in developing countries.\nIt was also true that in the lead-up to Copenhagen the developing nations\u2019 positions had become more sophisticated, specific, and strongly articulated than in previous COPs. Of course, this does not necessarily mean that all positions of developing countries were justified.\nHowever, the reluctance of developed countries to make commitments for GHG emissions reductions at levels necessary to protect the most vulnerable indicated that the developing country demands in the lead-up to and during Copenhagen were in great conflict with developed countries\u2019 ability or political willingness to act.\nConsequently, since the negotiations in the two years leading up to Copenhagen made little progress in resolving huge conflicts between developed and developing countries it was not likely that the two weeks that had been set out in Copenhagen would lead to a global climate change deal and finding another approach to breaking the deadlock became an attractive option.\nYet, if developed nations were willing to follow the normal negotiating procedures and make additional commitments on emissions reductions and funding for adaptation, deforestation programs, and technology transfer, some progress greater than achieved in the Copenhagen Accord might have been achieved. As a result, since developed countries were unwilling to make binding commitments sufficient to protect vulnerable developing countries, it is disingenuous for some developed countries to assert that the Copenhagen Accord was practically necessary because of the magnitude of the gaps between developed and developing countries as the size of these gaps have been caused to a great extent by the developed countries themselves.\nThat is, the appeal to practical necessity to justify the Accord must be seen in light of the unwillingness of developed countries to commit to do things that would be required of them if they agreed to be bound by duties and responsibilities to developing countries and not just narrow economic self-interest.\nIt is also clear that because of the nineteen year failure in the UNFCCC negotiations to produce significant GHG emissions commitments, the gaps between what is needed to protect poor developing countries and the ability of developed countries to make these commitments have grown. This is so because each time a global solution to climate change is delayed, atmospheric concentrations of GHG continue to rise and the time for preventing dangerous climate change continues to get shorter. And so as delays in achieving a meaningful global solution to climate change have continued, promises from developed countries to take steps to protect developing countries have become more difficult to make because over time the commitments need to be more ambitious after each delay. Therefore the failure to reduce emissions in the past is making gaps between developed and developing countries\u2019 positions on climate change more intractable, a fact that should be seen as an ominous development for both developed and developing countries.\nIn negotiating the Accord, the United States pushed issues that it needed to resolve to pass pending US climate change legislation at the expense of issues that were important to protecting the poorest developing countries from climate change. For instance,\no\tThe US commitments on GHG emissions reductions leading up to Copenhagen had been 17% below 2005 emissions levels, which was only 4% below 1990 levels, a baseline supported by most other countries and the baseline endorsed by the Kyoto Protocol. This made the US proposal on reductions commitments the weakest among developed countries, yet consistent with a bill passesd by the United States House of Representatives. In Copenhagen, as noted above, President Obama\u2019s hands were tied by his inability to make commitments that were not likely to be enacted by US domestic legislation and therefore President Obama could not practically go beyond the commitments in the US House climate change bill. As a result of this practical constraint, when President Obama negotiated the Accord, he successfully pushed for making emissions reductions commitments from developed countries completely voluntary.\no\tWhen President Obama addressed the Copenhagen high-level segment he asserted that the US\u2019s two main requirements for Copenhagen were to: (a) set emissions reductions by large emitters; and (b) that these emissions reductions were internationally verifiable. (Gu\u00e9rin and Wemaere. 2009) The United States insisted on getting large developing countries to make further commitments despite the fact that it had been previously decided in Bali that developing countries could develop non-binding NAMAs. As we have seen, this US interest in additional developing country commitments was motivated by US domestic pressure to avoid emissions reductions commitments in Copenhagen unless large developing countries commit to reduce their emissions. As we shall see in the next section, the position that the United States need not reduce its emissions to its fair share of safe global emissions until others make such commitments is ethically dubious even if it reflects political reality in the United States. In addition, even if one assumes that President Obama\u2019s hands were tied by domestic political considerations, a case can be made the failure of the US president to make the case to the American people that in addition to US economic interests in climate change policies the United States has ethical obligations, duties, and responsibilities to other nations can be understood to be an ethical failure or a failure of leadership.\no\tEven though the United States demanded that China commit to a verification process, the United States conceded to China\u2019s demands to remove from the Copenhagen Accord provisions requiring all parties to achieve a 50% reduction by 2050, developed countries to reduce by 80% by 2050, and the 1.5 C warming target of great interest to small island states and low-lying nations that have the most to lose from rising seas. (Milliband, 2009). As we shall see in the next section, these omissions are ethically dubious.\no\tThe Accord did not resolve an issue that put the United States at odds with many developed countries, namely whether the developed countries commitments would be integrated into an extension of the Kyoto Protocol. The United States had resisted proposals from other developed countries to build the second commitment period on the architecture of the Kyoto Protocol during the entire two year lead-up to Copenhagen because the United States had never ratified the Kyoto Protocol and saw little domestic political support for doing so.\nFrom these considerations it can be argued that the United States got essentially what it wanted in the Copenhagen Accord including the following:\nThe Accord sets no additional obligations for the US other than what it plans to do domestically.\nThe United States obtained verification of developing countries\u2019 actions and especially China, an achievement which should help the United States with its domestic legislation in light of the fact that many opposed to the US legislation objected to the lack of commitments by China.\nThe United States obviated the need to join the Kyoto Protocol, a step that was politically impossible in the United States.\nFrom the US point of view, the Copenhagen Accord was a good deal. This result is not insignificant even to other members of the international community if the concessions in the Accord from large developing countries leads to US domestic legislation because the world needs the United States to join the community of nations working to reduce the threat of climate change. For this reason, even though the Copenhagen Accord was seen as a very weak outcome by many EU countries, if the United States can now move to pass domestic climate change legislation allowing it to make legally binding commitments, then international negotiations can regroup in Mexico City to achieve some of the goals originally hoped for in Copenhagen and laid out in the Bali Action Plan.\nHowever, from the standpoint of developing countries that are particularly vulnerable to climate change, the Accord is a potential disaster because the Accord:\nMakes no reference to a future legally binding instrument.\nAllows developed countries to commit to both emissions reduction levels and funding for developing country needs for adaptation, deforestation prevention programs, and technology transfer at any level politically acceptable to the developed country.\nWill likely lead to a 3\u00b0C or even 3.5\u00b0C increase based on current pledges from the developed countries, putting many developing countries at a very high risk, despite its 2\u00b0C long-term temperature limit as a goal of the UNFCCC.\nDoes not take a decision on the future of the Kyoto Protocol. The Kyoto Protocol includes many provisions that benefit developing countries including the Clean Development Mechanisms, a baseline year for emissions reduction of 1990, and legally binding commitments of developed countries.\nMakes no progress on the requirement in the UNFCCC, that nations reduce their emissions based upon \u201cequity.\u201d\nGives control over future climate change policy to large emitters which is good if these big emitters reduce their emissions to levels required by justice and responsibility to developing countries. Yet because these big emitters now have more control over their emissions reductions commitment levels under the approach taken by the Accord that allows pledging of commitments without the pressure to satisfy the developing countries in a negotiated process, the large emitters are more than ever likely to adopt climate change emissions policies guided by national economic interest, not at levels that duties and obligations to developing countries would require. For this reason, the good news is that the Copenhagen Accord made the large emitters larger players in the international approach to climate change, yet the bad news is that the Accord makes the large emitters key players in the international approach to climate change, an outcome that also diminishes the power of the poor, most vulnerable nations.\nAll of this makes the United States domestic climate change legislation enormously important for the international community. Many nations finally agreed to the Copenhagen Accord because they were hopeful that the United States might soon pass meaningful domestic climate change legislation before the next meeting of international negotiations in November in Mexico City. An so, after over twenty years of international climate change negotiations, the world is still waiting for the United States.\nWhat happened in Copenhagen makes US action on climate change a key to any hope that the world will finally adopt a global solution to climate change. Although bi-lateral and more regional solutions to climate change can continue, these negotiations will take place without the need to satisfy the demands of the most vulnerable developing countries. Since there is no reason to believe that in the absence of pressure from developing countries, the developed countries will reduce their emissions based upon \u201cequity,\u201d a change in the locus of international climate change negotiations to bi-lateral or regional levels almost guarantees that economic interests of nations will loom even larger in the future in determining their future climate change positions .\nUnfortunately there is little evidence that the United States is on a track to adopt climate change policies and programs that would represent its fair share of safe global emissions. In addition, as we shall see, the US approach to the Copenhagen Accord was based on several ethically dubious assumptions.\nIn summary, the Copenhagen Accord must be seen as a disaster for developing countries if developed countries continue to make commitments insufficient to prevent dangerous climate change. As we shall see in the next section, there is little reason to believe that developed countries are willing to commit to actions that represent what ethics and justice would require of them. .\nV. Ethical Analysis of Copenhagen Accord\nIn the lead-up to Copenhagen, ClimateEthics identified ethical criteria that any Copenhagen agreement would have to satisfy, see Minimum Ethical Criteria For All Post-Kyoto Regime Proposals: What Does Ethics Require of A Copenhagen Outcome http://climateethics.org/?p=50,\nIn this prior analysis, ClimateEthics concluded that any proposed post-Kyoto regime must as a matter of at a minimum:\nIn addition to these criteria previously identified to guide ethical analysis of a post-Kyoto regime, the rise in importance in the adaptation agenda and the almost certain fact that it is too late to protect poor countries from the need to cope with adaptation issues, there is clearly a need to add additional ethical criteria for evaluating second commitment period regimes under the UNFCCC. That is, any proposed post-Kyoto regime must:\nAssure that those responsible for climate change provide adequate, predictable adaptation funding to enable developing countries and in particular the most vulnerable developing countries to do what is necessary to avoid climate change damages in cases where it is possible to take action and to prevent damages, or be compensated for climate change damages in cases where it is impossible to take protective action. We will refer to this as the just adaptation criteria\nThese three criteria, that is environmental sufficiency, equity, and just adaptation constitute the minimum ethical considerations that any climate regime must satisfy, they don\u2019t capture all ethical questions raised by climate change. In fact ClimateEthics has identified many civilization challenging ethical questions that the need be considered in adopting climate change policies. Yet these criteria are the minimum ethical considerations that any new climate change regime must meet.\nAs the world approached the Copenhagen negotiations in late summer of 2009, ClimateEthics examined the specific positions of nations and concluded that some nations were taking positions on the Copenhagen agenda as if GHG emissions reduction commitments can be guided by national interest alone and not responses to international ethical duties and obligations. For this reason, ClimateEthics concluded that the major emitters were approaching Copenhagen in a way that appeared to be avoiding their ethical obligations and acting as if narrow national economic interest is a valid justification for their climate change positions. Yet, ethics would require these nations to act in accordance with duties and responsibilities to other vulnerable nations, not self-interest alone.\nThe Copenhagen Accord and the way it was negotiated does nothing to change the conclusion that most nations failed to live up to their ethical obligations in approaching Copenhagen. In fact, as we shall see, many of the considerations that seemed to be the driving forces behind the content of the Copenhagen Accord are based upon ethically problematic assumptions and premises.\na.\tEnvironmental Sufficiency Criteria.\nNot only does the Copenhagen Accord fail to require sufficient GHG emissions reductions to assure that the international community is on a GHG emissions reduction pathway that will prevent dangerous climate change harm, the emissions reductions commitments that have been identified under the Accord almost guarantee that millions of poor people, plants, animals, an ecosystems will be harmed by climate change if the consensus science position turns out to be correct.\nAlthough it is still possible that nations in the next few years will revise upward their GHG emissions reductions commitments to levels that will protect the most vulnerable people and countries, very recent science has concluded that the world is running out of time to do this.\nAs we have seen, the Copenhagen Accord does set a target that nations should work together to limit human caused additional heating to 2\u00b0C. There are, however, several ethical problems with this target. They include the following:\nAny additional warming from current levels is ethically problematic because current temperatures are already dangerous for some vulnerable people around the world and an additional 1 \u00b0C temperature rise is already locked in by prior emissions. Because any additional warming from current levels could have serious consequences to those most vulnerable to climate change, those who are most vulnerable should have as a matter of procedural justice rights to consent to put at risk by the additional 2\u00b0C goal adopted in the Accord. Yet, some of the most vulnerable nations in Copenhagen wanted the Copenhagen outcome to adopt a 1.5 \u00b0C goal. Although the Copenhagen Accord specifies that the 1.5 \u00b0C can be reconsidered in five years, many scientists would argue that since global peaking of GHG emissions must take place in the next few years and therefore waiting five years virtually guarantees that the 1. 5\u00b0C is unachievable.\nThe Copenhagen Accord appeared to reject an idea that was under consideration in the negotiating text that world needed to set not just a temperature limit goal but needed to commit to an atmospheric GHG concentration level that would give any temperature goal practical significance. To give the warming target practical meaning it is necessary to identify an atmospheric GHG concentration goal because there is scientific uncertainty about how much warming will be produced by different levels of atmospheric GHG concentrations, a scientific issue usually referred to as the \u201cclimate sensitivity\u201d problem. Therefore, if the international community is serious about protecting vulnerable people it must take a position on climate sensitivity by adopting a atmospheric GHG concentration goal. The negotiating text under consideration before the Copenhagen Accord contained unresolved alternative atmospheric GHG concentration goals such as 350 and 450 parts per million of CO2. Only by adopting an atmospheric GHG concentration target, can anyone analyze the sufficiency of national commitments. And so the 2\u00b0C warming limit adopted by the Accord is virtually worthless in determining whether national emissions reductions commitments are adequate to protect human health and the environment from climate change.\nThere is substantial scientific evidence that even the 1.5 \u00b0C temperature limit would not be sufficient to protect those most vulnerable to climate change. For instance, a recent paper by Jim Hansen and seven other authors concluded that additional warming should be limited to 1\u00b0C warming and to do this existing atmospheric concentrations of CO2 must not only not be allowed to rise the small amount to 450 ppm of carbon equivalent but must be reduced from existing levels of 385 ppm to 350 ppm CO2. (Hansen et al 2008) According to this paper, the world has likely already shot past the level of atmospheric concentrations that will lead to dangerous climate change for many. Under this view, the world has already used up all of the assimilative capacity of the atmosphere and biosphere that has been available to buffer against dangerous climate change. Given this, a strong ethical argument can be made that all nations have a duty to try to prevent additional warming of almost any amount, while the Copenhagen Accord legitimizes an additional 2\u00b0C warming. Given that the Copenhagen Accord can also be understood to legitimize any national GHG emissions target that is proposed voluntarily, even if it is insufficient to achieve the 2\u00b0C temperature limit goal adopted by the Accord, let alone the duty to try and prevent any additional warming, the Accord is ethically problematic. Given that a case can be made that current levels atmospheric GHG concentrations are already harming or putting people and ecosystems at risk, it is difficult to make an ethically acceptable case that atmospheric GHG concentration targets higher than current levels are justified unless consent is given by those who are already being harmed by warming. Yet the Copenhagen Accord assumes that an additional 2\u00b0C warming is acceptable.The national GHG emissions reduction commitments that have been identified to be included in the Annex to the Copenhagen Accord are not sufficient to even achieve the 2\u00b0C temperature limit goal. As one commentator has explained:\nAs a group, the Copenhagen commitments for the biggest emitters, if confirmed, would imply a 28% increase of emissions above the 1990 level.\nCompared with the business-as-usual scenario for those countries, emissions would be reduced by 21%.\nAssuming that the rest of the world continues on a business-as-usual path, global emissions would increase to about 48 gigatons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GT CO2-eq) by 2020. This represents a 29% increase with respect to 1990, a 5% increase with respect to 2005 and a 16% reduction with respect to business-as-usual\nThe Copenhagen declarations are clearly insufficient to control global warming below 2\u00b0C \u2013 even if they are substantial when compared with the business-as-usual scenario. What at first glance seemed like good news \u2013 the emission-reduction declarations \u2013 turns out to be bad news. The declarations are inconsistent with the 2\u00b0C temperature target, even though the target is reiterated in the Copenhagen Accord itself. (Carraro and Massetti, 2010)\nFor this reason, the Copenhagen Accord is ethically problematic because it appears to legitimize emissions reductions commitments that are inconsistent with its temperature limit goal.\nWe have also seen that the United States approached negotiations of the Copenhagen Accord as if the United States need not make emissions reductions commitments unless it could secure commitments to reduce GHG emissions from high-emitting developing countries.\nA prior ClimateEthics post examined in detail whether one nation may make its emissions reduction commitments contingent upon other nations\u2019 promises to do so. See, Ethical Issues Raised By US Blue Dog Democratic Senators\u2019 Opposition to Climate Legislation \u2013 When May a Nation Make Domestic GHG Reduction Commitments Contingent on Other Nations\u2019 Actions, http://climateethics.org/?p=206. In that post, ClimateEthics concluded that no nation may deny its duty to reduce its emissions to its fair share of safe global emissions on the basis that others who are contributing to the harm have failed to cease harmful behavior. This is so because no nation or person has a right to continue destructive behavior on the basis that others who are contributing to the harm have not ceased their destructive behavior.\nAnd so, if some nations are not willing to reduce their emissions to levels consistent with what justice requires of them, no nation, including the United States, can refuse to reduce its emissions to its fair share of safe global emissions levels on the basis that others won\u2019t act.\nAlthough the United States is well within its rights to obtain promises of other nations to contribute to solving the climate change problem, it may not as a matter of ethics condition its willingness to reduce its emissions to levels required by justice on other nations\u2019 behavior. That is, although it may be in everyone\u2019s interest if the United States encourages others to make GHG emissions reductions commitments, the United States may not refuse to reduce its emissions to its fair share of safe global emissions on the basis that others have not acted. The United States could ethically link non-obligatory climate change actions on other\u2019s participation in climate change solutions but must agree to do what ethics requires of it in reducing emissions without regard to the actions of others.\nTherefore, from the standpoint of the environmental sufficiency goal, the Accord fails to satisfy the requirement that any post-Kyoto regime must assure that the international community is on a greenhouse gas emissions reduction pathway that will prevent dangerous climate change harm.\nb.\tEquity Criteria\nThe second minimum ethical criteria that all Copenhagen proposals must meet is the requirement that emissions reduction proposals must be consistent with what \u201cequity\u201d and \u201cjustice\u201d demands of them. In a prior post on this matter, ClimateEthics explored in detail what the equity criteria would require of nations in any second commitment period climate regime. See, Nations Must Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions To Their Fair Share of Safe Global Emissions Without Regard To What Other Nations Do,http://climateethics.org/?p=37. Summarizing a much longer analysis on equity in this prior post, equity requires that each nation reduce its emissions to its fair share of safe global emissions. And so, each nation\u2019s emissions reduction levels should be based upon what distributive and retributive justice demands, not on national self-interest. Although there are different theories of distributive justice that lead to different national allocations, many justifications for national GHG emissions allocations fail to satisfy any ethical scrutiny. In other words, it is not necessary to know what perfect justice requires to conclude that some proposals for national GHG allocations are unjust. One such common approach to national GHG emissions reductions commitments that fails to satisfy any ethical scrutiny is the claim that all nations must reduce emissions by the same amount without regard to whether a nation is a large or small contributor to the climate change problem, an approach often referred to as \u2018grandfathering\u2019 or equal reductions from existing emissions levels. It would appear that some of the national commitments that will be included in the Accord are based upon grandfathering emissions reductions from existing levels.\nSince most nations entered the Copenhagen negotiations as if national interest rather than global responsibility to others was an adequate basis for national climate change policies, the Copenhagen Accord has failed to satisfy equity criteria. In fact, in the lead-up to Copenhagen, most of the justifications for national commitments that had been announced by countries to reduce emissions were exclusively focused on whether they met global goals to reduce GHG emissions unadjusted by equity considerations\nThere have been several proposals discussed by the international community about second commitment period frameworks that would expressly incorporate equity into future GHG emissions reductions pathways. Two such frameworks are known as \u201cContraction and Convergence\u201d (C&C, 2009) and \u201cGreenhouse Development Rights\u201d (GDR) (Bear and Athanasiou, 2009) frameworks. In the lead-up to Copenhagen, all major GHG emitting nations ignored the C&C or GDR frameworks or any other comprehensive framework that took equity into account. In fact, the Copenhagen Accord allows each nation to identify its emissions reduction commitment based upon voluntary national considerations without regard to equity.\nTherefore, the Copenhagen Accord is a complete failure in satisfying equity criteria.\nc.\tJust Adaptation Criteria\nThe third minimum ethical criteria for judging any second commitment period under the UNFCCC is that it must provide adequate funding to support adaptation programs in developing countries given that some developing countries have done nothing to cause climate change and must take steps to avoid harsh impacts.\nAs ClimateEthics reported previously, in Copenhagen there was a huge blossoming of interest in adaptation to climate change and the linking of the adaptation agenda to everything else. All of a sudden the world has awoken to specific adaptation questions such as: (a) Who is going to pay for climate change damages?, (b) How should these monies be administered?, (c) To whom should they go?, (d) How to set priorities among adaptation needs, and (e) How much money will be made available for growing adaptation needs? From the standpoint of the poorest developing countries, adaptation issues have been a high priority for some time but now these issues are high on the negotiating agenda for all because every day it is becoming more difficult to prevent climate change damages. In fact, for some parts of the world adverse climate change impacts are not a future threat but a present reality\nOver the last several years, developing countries have pushed the adaptation agenda to center stage in international climate change negotiations. In Bali, a decision was made to create a new adaptation fund as part of the UNFCCC climate change architecture and to put adaptation on an equal footing with mitigation. For the last few years, adaptation has been growing in importance in international climate change negotiations, yet the energy, force, manner, and specificity with which the adaptation agenda is being negotiated is new.\nFor instance, for the first time some developing countries succeeded in getting the words \u201cecological debt\u201d into the negotiating text. One proposed paragraph provides:\nThe negotiating text leading up to Copenhangen called adaptation \u201curgent\u201d and provides that the \u201cpolluters shall pay\u201d through \u201cmandatory\u201d contributions for \u201cnew, predictable, and additional sources of funding\u201d for:\n\u2022 special funding amounts for particularly vulnerable countries including small island states and African countries affected by desertification, droughts and floods,\n\u2022 creation of new international adaptation committees that collect, analyze, and disseminate information on adaptation.\nYet, it was the amount of the adaptation funding agenda identified in the negotiating text that has profound historical significance for developed countries. According to one provision in the proposed negotiation text, funding for adaptation should be in the range of $70 to $140 billion per year until 2020 and then updated after. Another proposal calls for mandatory adaptation in the amount of 0.5 % of GDP for developed countries.\nAs we have seen, the Accord acknowledges that enhanced action and international cooperation on adaptation are urgently required in developing countries, especially in the least developed countries, the small island states, and Africa. The Accord also states that that developed countries shall provide adequate, predictable and sustainable financial resources, technology and capacity building to support adaptation. Yet, as we have also seen, the United States expressly denied that this funding is a duty or responsibility but a matter of \u201clargess.\u201d\nAlthough short- and long-term funding amounts for a variety of developing country climate change needs are also recognized in the Accord, this document does not acknowledge that this funding is in fulfillment of national responsibilities and in fact may be satisfied from \u2018public and private\u2019 sources.\nIn the Accord, the developed nations only promised to take steps to mobilize funding from a variety of sources, not provide dedicated funding sources.\nAs we have seen above, the assertion that the United States has no duties for adaptation was made by US chief negotiator Todd Stern who said:\nI actually completely reject the notion of a debt or reparations or anything of the like. For most of the 200 years since the Industrial Revolution, people were blissfully ignorant of the fact that emissions caused a greenhouse effect. It\u2019s a relatively recent phenomenon. (Revkin and Zeller, 2009)\nAnd so, the United States\u2019s denial of responsibility for adaptation appears to be based upon lack of knowledge of harm. Although there are some interesting ethical questions about when this responsibility should start, the international community could have been put on notice of potential climate change harms on the following dates:\no\tIn 1824, Joseph Fourier described the greenhouse effect for the first time\no\tIn 1894, Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius calculated that a doubling of CO2 would increase global temperatures by 5 0 C.\no\tIn the late 1950s, direct measurements of atmospheric CO2 demonstrated rising levels in direct proportion to fossil fuel use around the world,\no\tIn 1965, President Johnson\u2019s Scientific Advisory Committee warned that climate change was a \u201creal concern.\u201d\no\tIn the 1970s computer model based studies were warning the world that climate change would create adverse climate change impacts.\no\tIn 1981, Albert Gore organized a climate change hearing on Capitol Hill.\no\tIn 1985, scientists at Villach, Austria conference reached consensus that global warming was happening and international treaties were needed to curb emissions.\no\tIn 1988. the UN-led Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was established to assess state of knowledge on climate change.\no\t1990, IPCC issued its first report concluding that climate change was a serious problem.\nAnd so the United States cannot deny that it was on notice about the harms of climate change for many decades and certainly at the very latest by 1990. Therefore, if responsibility for harms starts upon notice of potential harm, a strong claim can be made that all developed countries have been on notice for many decades.\nBecause the Copenhagen Accord made no binding commitments on the part of developed countries for adaptation and provides no reliable adaptation funding mechanism, The Copenhagen Accord must be understood to fail the just adaptation criteria.\nVI. Conclusions-Climate Change Ethics after Copenhagen.\nThe Copenhagen Accord is ethically problematic for reasons stated in this post among other reasons. In summary, the commitments made by nations in the Accord are not environmentally sufficient, distributively just, nor provide for just adaptation responses for vulnerable developing countries.\nThe next climate change negotiations will take place in Mexico City in November 2010. Although it is possible that developed nations will take more ethically responsible positions on an urgently needed global climate change solution, the world is running out of time to do this according to the consensus scientific view\nThe longer the world waits to reduce its GHG emissions, the more important and expensive will be the adaptation agenda and the steeper emissions reductions commitments will need to be to protect vulnerable developing countries. Each failure to develop a global solution to a climate change regime will make it more difficult to forge a just climate change regime.\nIt would appear that US domestic action on climate change is a key to success at the international level. In the months ahead there are sure to be many arguments made against US climate change legislation in the United States. If these arguments follow past patterns, they will predominantly be claims based on narrow, short-term national economic self-interest devoid of any recognition of duties, responsibilities, and obligations to others to prevent climate change If this is the case, those interested in an ethically justifiable global solution to climate change need to turn up the volume on the ethical problems with US climate change responses.\nAs ClimateEthics has previously pointed out, the US press has utterly failed to emphasize the ethical dimensions of climate change and as a result most Americans see little problem with judging national climate change policies on the basis of national economic interest. As a result, ethics and justice are the crucial missing elements in the US national conversation about climate change policies.\nBBC.

Should toxic gasses is real, I would be the first to die. Without any protection, I continued burning until late in the evening under the big acasia tree to minimize the spread of toxic fumes spreading in adjacent houses.\nIt feels good doing the opposite and plans to continue burning non-biodegradable trash in the days to come.

We use it to cook our food too.\nIt might be also one solution to attain zero waste in our schools.\nThis experiment is 3 days old and hope local enforcement agencies will not notice, hehehe\u2026\nI Love you guys, you have opened our eyes and Copenhagen will never be a failure.

        "raw_content": "Three things that have improved since the arrival of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\nManchester United and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer are currently on an amazing winning streak of eight games in all competitions, which puts them just three points behind the top four spots in the Premier League as well as a place in the fifth round of the FA Cup. It\u2019s been the ideal comeback since the departure of Jose Mourinho, however, the second half of the season is now kicking off in full effect.\nSince the managerial change, a lot of things have changed on and off the pitch, allowing the side to revive their style of play and a footballing campaign that had seemed to be apparently over and buried in the grave. Not only that, even the Old Trafford faithful are enjoying the rollercoaster of a ride they are on at the moment, as they are simply taking each game and fixture one small step at a time.\nHere are three things we have learnt about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\u2019s Manchester United\u2026\nBest way to defend is to constantly attack\nUnited\u2019s defence has constantly been the side\u2019s main weakness throughout the season so far, where they have lacked solidity as a unit and have been relying on David De Gea to come up with the vital goods in goal as usual. However, they have now learnt to dominate possession once again and to calmly play the ball around the opposition\u2019s half, minimising the amount of times they have to defend in their own half.\nThanks to Solskjaer\u2019s positive mindset and his ability to install a winning mentality into the squad, the team are able to show to the opposition that football is played the Manchester United way or the highway. The recent statistics are surely backing up these opinionated comments, as the side have managed to achieve 22 goals and have conceded on only five occasions, showing huge improvement defensively.\nThe mood within the dressing room has massively turned around\nThroughout the final couple of weeks or so under the reign of Mourinho, the manager had lost the faith of his key players in Alexis Sanchez, Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba whilst dividing and tearing the dressing room into pieces. Once this had become evident within a number of league matches, there was a huge feeling within the fanbase that he would be relieved of his duties before the matter affected the club in the long run.\nNow, six weeks into Solskjaer\u2019s time at the football club he adores the most, he has re-assured the squad and had advised to each single one of them, of the important role they will be playing for the side from now until the season comes to an end. The positive feelings and the high spirits speaks for itself on the pitch and during the training sessions, where all the individuals are better and stronger as a whole than ever before.\nPressing high up the pitch with intensity can lead to positive outcomes\nBelieve it or not, football has massively changed over the last five to ten years, and one of the main factors to this has been the high pressing system that is utilised by the best teams in Europe. Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Manchester City are the perfect examples to use, three well-known sides that play effectively within this method that allows them to advance well in all the competitions they take part in season by season.\nLooking back at United, it is important for the side to press in numbers and to understand when to press, purely because it is crucial to not run around like hooligans and it is a must to control the stamina levels during the match. With the likes of Martial, Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford pressing with intensity, whether it\u2019s down the flanks or through the middle, a lot of the side\u2019s goals have been by forcing the opposition into making mistakes and pushing them out of their comfort zone.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News, Football News\t| Tagged Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Old Trafford, ole gunnar solskjaer, premier league\t| Leave a reply\nThe curious case of Manchester United\u2019s Eric Bailly\nWhen Manchester United completed the signing of centre-back, Eric Bailly, in the summer of 2016, it had seemed like the club\u2019s diabolical presence of Chris Smalling and Phil Jones in the backline had come to an end. Having left Villarreal and La Liga at such a young age, the Ivory Coast international moved to England as an unknown player who cost the biggest club in England a fee of \u00a330million.\nThe player himself moved to a new country and a new league with very little expectations, given that he wasn\u2019t seen as one of the best rising and upcoming centre-backs within Europe. However, the instant mentions about his athleticism, composure on the ball and his mentality of intercepting and tackling every ball, made it feel like a defender was coming in to fix the side\u2019s ongoing issues.\nLooking back at Bailly\u2019s first season in the Premier League, it can be easily stated that he exceeded all opinions and predictions of how he would do, as he formed a really consistent and dominant partnership with the likes of Jones and Marcos Rojo throughout the campaign. In that very moment, the centre-back seemed like the perfect individual for the manager to form his defence around.\nAlthough the main focus was on Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who arrived in the same window as Bailly did, it was the latter that instantly became a fans favourite and was seen as one of the signings of the season. Not only that, he came out on top when facing the likes of Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy and Sergio Aguero in his first campaign within English football.\nThough, the unfortunate issues began in the following season with an unknown injury in October 2017, which kept him out on the sidelines until the first week of December as he missed five games altogether. At first, it was regarded as a minor setback that would keep him away from the side for four to six weeks, but he returned to training and a week later, he suffered a major ankle problem that would see him face his longest spell so far in his professional career as an injured player.\nWithin the period from October 2017 till February 2018, Bailly missed 26 important games and it could very well be the reason to why he has fallen down the pecking order over the last couple of months. Also, the defence has been mentioned as a department that is filled with flaws and weaknesses, so it\u2019s not actually a surprise to see the backline being changed week in and out.\nAlso, the 26 games he missed should be seen as three quarters of a season that the 24-year-old spent on the sidelines, which has simply stagnated his development and has prevented himself from proving that he is one of the best centre-backs within England and Europe. If the long-term injury had not occurred, he would have potentially had another 15 to 20 league games of experience under his belt and he would now be playing alongside Victor Lindelof at the heart of defence on a regular basis.\nOn the other hand, Eric Bailly still has a lot to learn given that he has a tendency to lose focus in the matter of seconds and can frustratingly be seen as a red card waiting to happen. If the former manager, Jose Mourinho, who has a history when it comes to improving young and upcoming defenders, cannot help take the centre-back to the next level, the question has to be seriously asked on what needs to be done, in order to make the individual become consistent and defensively dominant again.\nOverall, the majority of Manchester United supporters and the Old Trafford faithful know how brutal and talented Eric Bailly is, someone who is not afraid of putting his head where most would not even confidently put their feet into the challenge. And in the end, all he may need is more game time alongside Lindelof under a manager that has an actual footballing system, or a defensive coach that can kind-heartedly assist him on and off the pitch to become a more complete and perfect centre-back.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News, Football News\t| Tagged Eric Bailly, Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Old Trafford, ole gunnar solskjaer\t| Leave a reply\nFour things we truthfully learned about Manchester United in 2018\nThe majority of Manchester United supporters will be hoping that the New Year is filled with memorable moments as well as one or two trophies. 2018 as a whole will be one to forget for the Red Devils, given that a lot of unforgettable things had happened, from the unconvincing transfer windows to the disappointment in the Champions League and the defeat in the FA Cup final.\nOn top of that, the Old Trafford faithful had to bare the appalling and dire football that was played under Jose Mourinho, which resulted in a number of points being dropped home and away during the season. Due to this, the board made a huge managerial decision and are now looking to get back to their best, before they can start to challenge for the league title and the domestic trophies again.\nHere are the four fascinating things we learned throughout the year of 2018\u2026\nA director of football is badly needed\nWith the likes of Andrea Berta, Fabio Paratici and Paul Mitchell being reportedly linked as the new director of football at Manchester United, the board and Ed Woodward are starting to understand the importance of having an individual that has the football knowledge to help take the football club to the next level. If this was to happen within the next couple of months, the next permanent manager of the team will enjoy the presence of someone who has positive plans for the long run.\nMost vitally, a director of football will help to target players in a simple yet effective way, which will allow the club to utilise their money properly rather than splashing it out on midfielders or attackers who have not proved themselves at the top level. The revival of Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla over the last five to ten years have been because of the board\u2019s capability to bring in a sporting director, who can bring forward a controllable philosophy that everyone can follow.\nJose Mourinho was the virus, not Paul Pogba\nFor a large number of months in 2018, it had seem like the gloomy days and painful nights at Old Trafford were solely due to the rift between Jose Mourinho and Paul Pogba, two individuals who could not get along with one another and could not put their differences aside for the sake of the football club. With the situation becoming worse and worse, the Premier League pundits and Manchester United supporters felt one of them had to leave before it affected the team as a whole.\nIn the end, the hierarchy felt enough was enough and chose to relieve the manager of his duties, which now happens to be a great decision as the side are now playing their football with more confidence and freedom as well as Pogba himself being the heartbeat of the midfield. Had the board decided to back the manager and get rid of the player, they would have potentially looked very stupid in a year\u2019s time, where the Frenchman could be playing the best football of his career at Barcelona or Paris Saint-Germain whilst they are stuck with a declining and finished Mourinho.\nDavid De Gea has constantly been saving United\u2019s defence\nOver the last couple of years or so, both Louis Van Gaal and Mourinho set United up in a defensive and counter-attack way, which made it look like the side were defensively a solid unit whilst being just about clinical on the other side. However, the side\u2019s defensive displays in recent years have been largely exaggerated due to the brilliance of David De Gea, a goalkeeper that comes up with a number of saves with ease on a regular basis, which has made him to be recognised as the best shot-stopper within the Premier League as well as one of the best goalkeepers in Europe, if not the best.\nThe defence has to be seen as a weak department and an area that needs shuffling around, especially given that the likes of Antonio Valencia, Ashley Young, Chris Smalling and Phil Jones have been playing at the club for far longer than necessary and have simply failed to reach the potential they were expected to meet. If the board want to make a statement and are looking to show ruthlessness, then they will be willing to seriously revamp the backline over the summer transfer window.\nThe future looks bright for the Red Devils on and off the pitch\nFor sure a lot of money has been spent from after the Sir Alex Ferguson era up until now, though, it cannot be kept as a secret that the current squad is filled with a number of talented players. They maybe yet to prove themselves as Champions League or Premier League winners, but the important individuals such as Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Paul Pogba, Victor Lindelof as well as a couple of others who have shown moments here and there are ready to take this football club forward.\nOverall, it is impossible to see United fall far away from the top sides within England and Europe, as they have the financial resources to aggressively buy in every transfer window. On the other hand, it is critical for the club to start reflecting and showing their dominance on the pitch, otherwise, their chances of creating another successful legacy decreases season by season. In the end, there is simply no doubt that the Red Devils will be bouncing back and return to the throne that was once theirs.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News\t| Tagged champions league, Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Old Trafford, ole gunnar solskjaer, Paul Pogba, premier league\t| Leave a reply\nPremier League chief Richard Scudamore\u2019s pay off feels like short change in the long term\nHindsight is a wonderful thing, and on these very pages I wrote an article detailing the grotesque story that emerged of Premier League chief Richard Scudamore being handed a \u00a35m golden handshake payment following his decision to step down after two decades. But in contrast to some of the news in the Premier League his bonus seems like short change.\nTake Mark Hughes who keeps failing at clubs and getting chances where other better managers are missing out on Premier League jobs. He was reported to have received \u00a36m when Southampton sacked him earlier this season, and yet Hughes was not at The Saints for two decades like Scudamore.\nThe bigger story is left to the bigger fish, the one and only Jose Mourinho who has received or will receive a reported \u00a315m after being sacked from Manchester United. The blame must go on the shoulders of United\u2019s vice chairman Ed Woodward who gave Mourinho a contract extension at the beginning of 2018, which resulted in this pay off. Some outlets put the figure much higher at \u00a322m, whatever the total amount, Mourinho has been paid at least 3 times the figure of Scudamore for failing.\nAt least Scudamore can claim not to have failed in his job and whilst his payment from he outside feels unjustified to the person in the street he has been able to grow the Premier League into what it is today. Sure its not all roses- mostly the same teams win the title. But anyone that wants to question Scudamore\u2019s great job need only look at Italy\u2019s Serie A. A one great league that is now a shambles of concrete stadiums, racist abuse to players and fans and hardly family friendly. Perhaps Scudamore\u2019s next role should be in Italy, the man has the golden touch that cannot be denied.\nCould Hughes or Mourinho claim the same? What type of legacy did they leave at their clubs? And yet they were paid handsomely well and no fan was ready to protest their pay offs like people did with Scudamore\u2019s \u00a35m which feels like petty cash given that he has injected billions into the very same teams that these fans support.\nSo whilst being paid two times your salary as a bonus does not feel right it must be taken in the context of the sport of football which is locked and loaded with money one thing is for sure and that is at least in the context of the crazy world that is football Scudamore earned his pay off.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News\t| Tagged English Premier League, English Premier League Fantasy Game, Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Mark Hughes, richard scudamore, southampton\t| Leave a reply\nManchester United: Three reasons why Jose Mourinho deserved to get sacked\nPosted on December 24, 2018 by Asif Norat\nWhen Manchester United made the announcement that Jose Mourinho has been relieved of his duties, it did not come up as a huge and total surprise, as the side were failing to pick up consistent victories in the Champions League and most importantly in the Premier League. Also, it had become really obvious that the dressing room were losing their confidence and full faith in the manager.\nOn top of that, the regular stalemates and defeats in the league left the board and Ed Woodward with no choice but to sack the 56-year-old Portuguese international before the matters on and off the pitch had got worse. The important people in the hierarchy have started to learn when enough is simply enough, something they did not understand during the David Moyes and Louis Van Gaal era.\nHere are three important factors to why Jose Mourinho was sacked\u2026\nThe results in all competition were not consistent enough\nFor majority of the Manchester United supporters, they started to give up on the manager after they were knocked out by La Liga side, Sevilla, in the Champions League knockout stages of the previous season. Deemed as a one of the easiest sides to face ahead of the fixtures, the former Chelsea and Real Madrid coach treated them as one of the best teams in Europe and chose to nullify the opposition from start till end rather than focusing on his side\u2019s strengths, which led to the awful but expected outcome.\nLooking back at his time at Old Trafford as a whole, Mourinho failed to bring the fortress reputation and status to United\u2019s stadium, which it was well known as during Sir Alex Ferguson\u2019s 27 years at the club. Given the amount of success he achieved during his time at Chelsea, Inter Milan, Porto and Real Madrid, he was unable to take the biggest football club in the Premier League back to the pinnacle of English football and allowed many of the lower sides to take a lot of valuable points off the team.\nFailed to adapt and adjust to the current style of English football\nA lot of the managers that have managed in the top-flight of English football for the last five to ten years are starting to be left behind from the rest, and it\u2019s mainly because of the fact that the style of football is constantly changing but only a small amount of coaches have had the audacity to make tactical tweaks and small changes. In the end, only a few managers have survived over the last few seasons whilst the rest have left.\nThe main examples are Arsene Wenger in the previous campaign and now recently Jose Mourinho, two well-known managers who were once upon a time controlling and dominating the Premier League for a quite a number of years. However, due to their lack of capability to amend their footballing methods and their style of play, they are now being overtaken by the likes of Jurgen Klopp, Mauricio Pochettino and Pep Guardiola, who are playing football at an aesthetically pleasing level within all competitions.\nConstant issues with the dressing room and especially the key players\nNow, it\u2019s time to look at the very main reason to why Mourinho was given the sack, which was the bizarre treatment he showed towards his key players whilst the ones that were his favourites were given a free pass to be selected in the starting line-up. Over the last year or so, the way he treated the players in Anthony Martial, Eric Bailly, Luke Shaw and Paul Pogba made no sense at all and it was simply painful to see.\nDespite spending a large amount of money since moving to Old Trafford in May 2016, he has constantly relied on the signings that were made by Moyes and Van Gaal rather than the ones he brought to the club. Also, Bailly and Pogba arrived at the club in Mourinho\u2019s first transfer window and had an impressive season under him, yet both individuals have been treated poorly by himself and were given the cold shoulder.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News, Football News\t| Tagged champions league, Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Old Trafford, premier league\t| Leave a reply\nMauricio Pochettino doesn\u2019t have to leave Tottenham for Manchester United but probably will\nSince Jose Mourinho\u2019s sacking earlier in the week there has inevitably been talk of who will permanently be the next manager at Manchester United after caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\u2019s tenure ends next summer.\nEveryone from Zinedine Zidane to Diego Simeone has been thrown in the hat. In Zidane\u2019s case he is currently unattached to any club and after his immense success with Real Madrid could be the number 1 candidate, but not so\u2026 that vote of confidence has fallen to Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino. Despite not winning a trophy for the North London club yet Pochettino has turned Spurs into genuine title contenders and changed the mentality of the club. One could argue that pound for pound Tottenham have been the best team in the Premier League for the past two seasons.\nNow the Argentinian is being heavily linked to United and it does make sense. He has bags of experience in England, knows the Premier League inside out and his teams play positive attacking football, he\u2019s also a great guy to be around. But the question that arises is do Manchester United need Pochettino more than he needs them?\nThere is no question that being offered the United job is a fantastic complement, but being offered it 5, 10, 15 years ago would have meant that there was no turning it down. But with time it feels that in 2018 United simply are not the same club anymore. After spending 26 years attached to Sir Alex Ferguson and one manager, the club have gone through 3 in five years. They feel like the also rans, yesterday\u2019s team, perhaps even of an era changing. There is no question that the club will roar back but that could be 10 years or so away from now.\nThe knee jerk reaction when United or any of the big clubs come calling is to go, but Pochettino is in a unique position because he is already at a fantastic club- all that they are missing of course is the silverware to go with his tenure. Tottenham if the Gods persist will move into their brand new stadium early next year and the future does indeed look bright.\nThe only problem though could arise from Tottenham\u2019s owner Daniel Levy being tight with the budget. The club have already infamously brought in no new players in the summer- although as it has turned out it hasn\u2019t affected the club like it should have. But it must still be frustrating for the manager especially when he hinted last week that there would be no money to purchase new legs in January.\nThere is also the stark reminder of their neighbours Arsenal, who, after their big money move from Highbury to the Emirates went years without silverware and saw their best players leave as budgets were cut. Pochettino will have to weigh all of this up, and it could be the main reason he jumps ship. Levy needs to convince him to stay and offer him a decent budget on players for such a Premier League team.\nUltimately it would be unfortunate if he did decide to leave Spurs, because when the dust settles, it is plain to see that he doesn\u2019t really need to leave, glory could be much closer to home than he thinks.\nPosted in EPL Fantasy News\t| Tagged arsenal, English Premier League, English Premier League Fantasy Game, Jose Mourinho, Manchester United, Mauricio Pochettino, Spurs, Tottenham Hotspur, Zinedine Zidane\t| Leave a reply",

NOT TO SCALE, and significantly compressing one dimension. I will explain more tomorrow.\nThe big three: Africans, Caucasians (Euros, MENA, and Indians) and east Asians:\nZooming out:\nAnd adding in a bit of the second dimension:\nThe large circles represent more or less a billion people.\nCathedral Round-Up #18: Audre Lorde (Come and Vote!)\nJanuary 27, 2017 January 4, 2017 evolutiontheorist The Cathedral\tapartheid, Audre Lorde, bullshit, Cathedral Round Up, feminism, homosexuality, Ivy League, LGBT, Penn, poetry, privilege, Shakespeare, SJWs, University of Pennsylvania, white privilege\nIn honor of the decision by students at the University of Pennsylvania to replace Shakespeare\u2019s portrait (too stale, pale, and male for our newest crop of intellectuals,) with Audre Lorde\u2019s, (\u201cAfrican American writer, civil rights activist and self-described, \u201cblack, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet.'\u201d) I decided to read a batch of Lorde\u2019s poetry to see how it stacks up against the bard\u2019s.\nBut to make this more fun, I\u2019ve decided to pair each Lorde poem (chosen from those available on PoemHunter.com) with a poem on a similar theme from Shakespeare and let you vote for the ones you think are genuinely the best. (I wanted to make two columns so you can read the poems side-by-side, but I\u2019m not sure how to code that, so I just photoshopped the poems together. Let me know if they aren\u2019t readable.)\nEvX: I decided to cut #4, because it was quite long. We still have 5/7 listed on PoemHunter.\n(Lest you question my technique in choosing these poems, my methodology was relatively simple: first I headed to the local library, in search of this famous poet\u2019s marvelous books. Alas, even though Lorde published a grand total of 17 books of poems and essays, [including a posthumous collection of writings not previously deemed worth publishing,] coming admirably close to Shakespeare\u2019s 38 plays and 154 sonnets, the local library is mysteriously bereft of her work; I could find only one poem and a couple of essays in large anthologies.\nSo I turned to the internet, as mentioned. PoemHunter.com, which lists about 400 entries for Skakespeare, also lists 7 poems for Lorde. I assume these particular poems are on the site because Lorde\u2019s fans believe them to be particularly excellent examples of her work, and so decided to use them for my comparison. After excluding one for obscenity and one for length, I was left with a reasonable 5, which I then tried to match against poems of similar theme from William Shakespeare.)\nNow at this point, you may be asking yourself, \u201cWho is this grand Shakespearess? Whence hailed this ebony poet of warrior\u2019s virtue?\u201d\nLorde was born in New York City to Caribbean immigrants from Barbados and Carriacou, Frederick Byron Lorde (called Byron) and Linda Gertrude Belmar Lorde, who settled in Harlem. Lorde\u2019s mother was of mixed ancestry but could pass for white, \u2026 Lorde\u2019s father was darker than the Belmar family liked, and they only allowed the couple to marry because of Byron Lorde\u2019s charm, ambition, and persistence.[3]\u2026 [Audre] learned to talk while she learned to read, at the age of four, and her mother taught her to write at around the same time. She wrote her first poem when she was in eighth grade.\nNow, this brought me to a dead stop, because most children begin talking around the age of one, not four. By the age of two, the average child can form two-word sentences; a two year old who is not talking needs to be seen by a medical professional to ascertain if they have some physical or mental disability (such as hearing loss or jaw difficulties.) And according to Early and Late Talkers: school-age language, literacy, and neurolinguistic differences:\nIn this study, 174 elementary school-age children whose parents reported that they started forming sentences \u2018early\u2019, \u2018on-time\u2019 or \u2018late\u2019 were evaluated with standardized measures of language, reading and spelling. All oral and written language measures revealed consistent patterns for \u2018early\u2019 talkers to have the highest level of performance and \u2018late\u2019 talkers to have the lowest level of performance\u2026\nIn short, a kid who doesn\u2019t start talking until the age of four is most likely severely retarded. The claim here that Audre Lorde began talking at the age of four, with no given explanation for why and no indication of mental impairment, is extremely suspect. (Though I note that people in Lorde\u2019s day didn\u2019t rush to get their kids autism diagnoses like we do today. Wikipedia\u2019s claim that:\nAs a child, Lorde, who struggled with communication, came to appreciate the power of poetry as a form of expression.[8] She memorized a great deal of poetry, and would use it to communicate, to the extent that, \u201cIf asked how she was feeling, Audre would reply by reciting a poem.\u201d[9]\nis consistent with autism and other developmental disorders, so perhaps Lorde is indeed a high-IQ autist who simply began speaking late.)\nLorde\u2019s relationship with her parents was difficult from a young age. She was able to spend very little time with her father and mother, who were busy maintaining their real estate business\u2026\nSo Audre Lorde is basically the half-white, half-black daughter of rich immigrants who lived in NYC. (Even when liberals are clearly trying their hardest, they still somehow can\u2019t find a poet who is actually a member of America\u2019s historical black community. Perhaps libs just aren\u2019t good at distinguishing between different groups of non-whites, hence their habit of just lumping them all together in an undifferentiated mass of \u201cPOCs.\u201d)\nIn New York, Lorde she was subject to such rampant discrimination that she was forced to attend Hunter College High School:\nHunter College High School is a secondary school for intellectually gifted students located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. It is administered by Hunter College of the City University of New York (CUNY). Hunter is publicly funded, and there is no tuition fee. According to the school, \u201cstudents accepted to Hunter represent the top one-quarter of 1% of students in New York City, based on test scores.\u201d[1]\nHunter has been ranked as the top public high school in the United States by both The Wall Street Journal and Worth.[2][3][4] The New York Times called Hunter \u201cthe prestigious Upper East Side school known for its Ivy League-bound students\u201d and \u201cthe fast track to law, medicine and academia.\u201d[5] Publicly available data indicate that Hunter has the highest average SAT score, the highest average ACT score and the highest percentage of National Merit Finalists of any high school in the United States, public or private.[6][7]\nEvil Jim Crow laws and homophobia then so shut Lorde out of college and job opportunities that she was basically homeless and starving in the streets:\nIn 1954, she spent a pivotal year as a student at the National University of Mexico, a period she described as a time of affirmation and renewal, during which she confirmed her identity on personal and artistic levels as a lesbian and poet. On her return to New York, she attended Hunter College, graduating class of 1959. There, she worked as a librarian, continued writing and became an active participant in the gay culture of Greenwich Village. She furthered her education at Columbia University, earning a master\u2019s degree in Library Science in 1961. She also worked during this time as a librarian at Mount Vernon Public Library and married attorney Edwin Rollins; they divorced in 1970 after having two children, Elizabeth and Jonathan. In 1966, Lorde became head librarian at Town School Library in New York City, where she remained until 1968.[10]\nIn 1968 Lorde was writer-in-residence at Tougaloo College in Mississippi,[11] \u2026\nIn 1984 Audre Lorde started a visiting professorship in Berlin Germany at the Free University of Berlin. She was invited by Dagmar Schultz who met her at the UN \u201cWorld Women\u2019s Conference\u201d in Copenhagen in 1980. While Lorde was in Germany she made a significant impact on the women there and was a big part of the start of the Afro-German movement.[13] The term Afro-German was created by Lorde and some Black German women as a nod to African-American. During her many trips to Germany, she touched many women\u2019s lives including May Ayim, Ika H\u00fcgel-Marshall, and Hegal Emde. All of these women decided to start writing after they met Audre Lorde.[14] She encouraged the women of Germany to speak up and have a voice. \u2026 Her impact on Germany reached more than just Afro-German women. Many white women and men found Lorde\u2019s work to be very beneficial to their own lives. They started to put their privilege and power into question and became more conscious.[14]\nSee, pre-Lorde Germans were basically brute savages, ignorant of ideas like \u201cwrite things down\u201d or \u201ctalk about stuff.\u201d It is very lucky for them that this miracle working Sequoyah deigned to teach them her Dahomey magic art of \u201cconsciousness;\u201d I certainly can\u2019t think of anything that occurred prior to 1984 that might have ever made a German person think spontaneously and independently about things like \u201cpower\u201d or how the state might oppress an ethnic minority. But getting back to Wikipedia:\nBecause of her impact on the Afro-German movement, Dagmar Schultz put together a documentary to highlight the chapter of her life that was not known to many. Audre Lorde \u2013 The Berlin Years was accepted by the Berlinale in 2012 and from then was shown at many different film festivals around the world and received five awards. The film showed the lack of recognition that Lorde received for her contributions towards the theories of intersectionality.[13]\nIt\u2019s almost like privilege isn\u2019t a real thing and not all humans are identical\nGee, why don\u2019t people understand that the idle rich have a unique insight into the lives of oppressed people? It\u2019s just terrible when wealthy people don\u2019t get the credit they deserve.\nOh, would you like to hear some of Lorde\u2019s non-fiction? Here\u2019s an excerpt from an essay she wrote in 1985:\n\u2026 stock in Black human life in the U.S.A., never high, is plunging rapidly in the sight of white american complacencies. But as African-Americans we cannot afford to play that market\u2019 it is our live and the live of our children that are at stake.\nThe political and social flavor of the African American position in the 1980s eel in particular aspects to be analogous to occurrences in the Black South African communities of the 1950s, the period of the postwar construction of the apartheid, reaction, and suppression\u2026\nThe fact that African-Americans can till move about relatively freely, do not yet have to cary passbooks or battle an officially named policy of apartheid, should not delude us for a minute about the disturbing similarities of the Black situation in each one of these profit-oriented economies.\nNot only does Lorde appear to be unaware that 324,000 white Americans died to free the slaves, (perhaps this is not her fault\u2013after all, Lorde\u2019s ancestors weren\u2019t in the country back then and she attended such an inadequate, taxpayer-funded school that she might have never heard of this little dust-up between the states,) she also believed in 1985 that the US was moving toward a system of full apartheid.\nI can forgive a bad prediction\u2013we all make them\u2013but why was this essay included in a book published in 2000, well after we discovered that the US was not actually moving toward apartheid? Here, let\u2019s have an essay about phlogistan while we\u2019re at it.\nAlso, Lorde is a communist and we all know exactly how well that turned out.\nAnother book with one of Lorde\u2019s essays, \u201cThe Impossible will Take a While,\u201d published in 2014, states in its introduction (not written by Lorde):\nWe live in a contradictory world. Dispiriting events coincide with progress for human dignity. \u2026 Only a short while ago, if you were gay, you were probably invisible and closeted, except for a handful of courageous activists who affirmed who they were despite major risks and costs.\nLiberals live in this strange time warp where basically the entire world prior to the Obama administration was Dark Ages. In 1984, a good thirty years before this book was published, enough gay men were courageous and active enough to have unprotected sex with hundreds or thousands of partners, resulting in an AIDS epidemic that had already claimed 7,600 American lives. By the early 90s, AIDS was killing over 40,000 people a year, but its rampage was finally checked by condom use and the massively expensive development of retroviral drugs, so that by 2002, a mere 500,000 Americans had died.\nThat\u2019s a really big \u201chandful.\u201d\nAre people simply incapable of figuring out whether strings of words make sense or bear any relationship to reality?\nAccording to HuffPo, Study Finds People Who Fall for Nonsense Inspirational Quotes are Less Intelligent:\nWhen Ph.D. candidate Gordon Pennycook stumbled on [the \u201cNew Age Bullshit Generator,\u201d] he found it profoundly entertaining \u2014 at first. But then he got a little disturbed:\n\u201cI thought, \u2018I wonder if people would actually rate such blatant bullshit as profound,\u2019\u201d \u2026\nHis study, \u201cOn the reception and detection of pseudo-profound bullshit,\u201d was published in the journal Judgment and Decision Making in November. Pennycook, along with a team of researchers from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, tested close to 800 participants on whether they could determine if a statement was bullshit. \u2026\nDefining \u201cbullshit\u201d \u2026 he cites the deceptively deep sentence \u201cHidden meaning transforms unparalleled abstract beauty.\u201d\nThe study explains: \u201cAlthough this statement may seem to convey some sort of potentially profound meaning, it is merely a collection of buzzwords put together randomly in a sentence that retains syntactic structure.\u201d\n\u201cBullshit, in contrast to mere nonsense, is something that implies but does not contain adequate meaning or truth,\u201d it continues. \u2026\nThe researchers used randomly generated sayings from New Age Bullshit Generator and another site called \u201cWisdom of Chopra\u201d \u2014 the last a sarcastic nod to the new age teachings of best-selling alternative medicine author Deepak Chopra \u2014 for the study.\nThey found that people who are receptive to this kind of \u201cpseudo-intellectual bullshit\u201d are less intelligent than those who aren\u2019t.\nBut getting back to Audre Lorde:\nShe wrote The Cancer Journals, which won the American Library Association Gay Caucus Book of the Year Award in 1981.[16] She featured as the subject of a documentary called A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde, which shows her as an author, poet, human rights activist, feminist, lesbian, a teacher, a survivor, and a crusader against bigotry.[17] \u2026\nFrom 1991 until her death, she was the New York State Poet Laureate.[19] In 1992, she received the Bill Whitehead Award for Lifetime Achievement from Publishing Triangle. In 2001, Publishing Triangle instituted the Audre Lorde Award to honour works of lesbian poetry.[20]\nState poet laureates are in fact real things; New York law dictates:\nThe governor shall biennially present the New York state Walt Whitman citation of merit to a distinguished New York poet upon the recommendation of the panel constituted in this section. The poet selected shall be considered the state poet and the citation shall carry an honorarium of ten thousand dollars. \u2026\nNothing says \u201coppressed\u201d like the state of New York voting to give you $10,000 a year to write poems about gay sex and black power. (I would take Lorde\u2019s self-description as a \u201cwarrior\u201d more seriously if she put her money where her mouth is and actually joined the army.)\nIn Ada Gay Griffin and Michelle Parkerson\u2018s documentary A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde, Lorde says, \u201cLet me tell you first about what it was like being a Black woman poet in the \u201960s, from jump. It meant being invisible. It meant being really invisible. It meant being doubly invisible as a Black feminist woman and it meant being triply invisible as a Black lesbian and feminist\u201d.[35]\nHoney, you\u2019re not invisible because you\u2019re a black lesbian feminist; you\u2019re invisible because you chose a profession that most people don\u2019t care about and then managed to suck at it.\nRumor, Outrage, and \u201cFake News\u201d\nJanuary 23, 2017 December 19, 2016 evolutiontheorist Neuropolitics, Metapolitics\tfake news, incentives, internet, knowledge, metapolitics, news, newspapers, social construction, truth\nBack when I started this blog, I had high hopes that the internet would allow people to bring together more and more information, resulting in an explosion of knowledge I referred to as the \u201cGreat Informationing.\u201d To some extent, services like Google and Wikipedia have already started this ball rolling by essentially creating searchable databases of crowd-sourced data on a scale and at a speed never known before in human history\u2013indeed, this blog would be much more limited in scope could I not look up at a moment\u2019s notice almost anything I desire to learn.\nIn the past year, though, I have become disillusioned. While the internet does put a great deal of information at my fingertips, it also puts a great deal of misinformation at my fingertips.\nRumor flies halfway around the world before Truth has got its pants on.\u2013variously misattributed\nIt\u2019s bad enough to try to delve into subjects where I don\u2019t speak the correct language to read most of the sources and thus can\u2019t even begin properly searching. It\u2019s even worse if the news I am getting isn\u2019t reliable.\nThere\u2019s been a lot of talk lately about \u201cfake news.\u201d I\u2019m not sure which sites, exactly, have been promoting \u201cfake news,\u201d but I noticed toward the tail end of the election a seeming proliferation of websites and news sources I\u2019d never heard of before. Clicking on these links generally led me to a site plastered with adds and images (which had a high probability of instantly crashing my computer) and headlines that looked lifted from other sources.\nSince noticing this trend, I\u2019ve tried to avoid linking to or trusting any headline that comes from a site I don\u2019t recognize on the grounds that I have no way to confirm whether they are trustworthy, and further, I don\u2019t like having my computer crash. The downside to this policy is that the internet is vast and I certainly do not know every respectable site out there.\nI noticed some time ago that even \u201crespectable\u201d papers like the WaPo and NYTimes had quite a lot of one-sided or otherwise questionable reporting. Lies and more Lies were another theme that got hounded a lot in the early stages of this blog, but my focus was more on society than the media. Since reading a lot of iSteve, however, I\u2019ve grown more sensitive to the ways media shape narratives, especially via what they chose to report and chose to remain silent on.\nWhen you realize that there are stories the media isn\u2019t commenting on, or is giving you a particular spin on, what do you do?\nquote found on Twitter\nLook for other sources, I guess.\nLast summer I noticed prominent papers printing not just mistakes or one-sided stories, but outright false statements that could only have made it into print because someone purposefully decided to make them up. (For privacy reasons I\u2019m not going into more details, but you can probably supply your own cases.)\nThere are a variety of things going on with the media, but the internet, sadly, appears to be making matters worse.\nIt\u2019s no secret that traditional print media has had a rough time since the information super highway started jazzing up our lives.\nI remember when Borders first opened in my neighborhood. I loved that place. I\u2019d bike over there and spend endless hours browsing the shelves, especially during the summer. I found my first anthropology books there.\nAnd I remember when the Borders went out. The empty husk of the building is still there, unoccupied. It\u2019s been empty for years. I wonder what on Earth is wrong with the person who owns that spot. Can\u2019t they find someone to rent it to?\nNewspapers have also suffered; with dwindling subscriptions, they\u2019ve simultaneously cut everyone with enough expertise to demand a high salary and turned to generating click-driving content.\nFamiliar exploits of beloved characters are related from a respectful, prejudice-free perspective: the Emperor is no longer naked in his new clothes but \u201cis endorsing a clothing-optional lifestyle,\u201d Snow White escapes to the cottage of \u201cseven vertically-challenged men,\u201d and Goldilocks is an ambitious scientist studying anthropomorphic bears. (source)\nWhen you have subscribers who actually pay for newspapers, they value thoughtful, high-quality reporting. (Otherwise, what are you spending all of that money on?) When readers are just clicking through, outrage drives the news cycle. Articles don\u2019t even have to be about something outrageous\u2013the article itself can be the outrageous thing, so long as people link to it and say, \u201cOMG, can you believe they wrote this?\u201d\nEvery hate click makes things worse.\nThe outrage machine is helping drive the SJW-fueled obsession with \u201cidentity politics,\u201d particularly feminism, anti-racism, and LGBT issues. This isn\u2019t the first time this style of political correctness has broken out\u2013remember the much-mocked silliness of the late 80s? But back then, only the National Enquirer could hope to use stories about transgender elementary school kids to sell papers. Now everyone can.\nIt\u2019s bad enough being the kind of person who worries about whether or not the division between \u201ctree\u201d and \u201cbush\u201d is just a social construct, or the basic unknowablity of what one doesn\u2019t know.\nBut now we have to consider the effects of hate-clicks and outrage on everything we know.\nWhen did Asians Evolve?\nJanuary 19, 2017 December 17, 2016 evolutiontheorist Genes and HBD, Human Migration, Cultures, and Species of Exit\tAborigines, Asians, Chinese, genes, genetics, HBD, human evolution, human family tree, Melanesians, Native Americans, race\nThe history of humanity\u2019s long sojourn across the globe has resulted in, more or less, three main super-clades, or races: Sub-Saharan Africans, Caucasians, and Asians. The words we use for these are not perfect (\u201cCaucasian\u201d is particularly imprecise,) but do the job well enough.\nGenetic distance map of 18 human groups, by Saitou Naruya\nThe Asian super-clade has three main branches: Melanesians (and Aborigines,) who traveled south into the Pacific; the Native Americans, who settled North and South America some 13-40,000 years ago; and of course the East Asians, like the Chinese, Japanese, and Polynesians.\n(Amusingly, Indians, though they clearly live in Asia, are part of the Caucasian clade because they are more closely related to Middle Easterners and Europeans than Chinese people. As a result, Indians were\u2013for a while\u2014recorded as \u201cwhite\u201d on US censuses, though today they are recorded as \u201cAsian.\u201d)\nPeople are fond of saying that the SS African race contains the greatest genetic diversity (as well it might, due to the inclusion of groups like the Pygmies and Bushmen, who may have split off from other human groups over 100,000 years ago,) but the Asian race has the greatest pre-Columbian geographic/environmental range, stretching from Australia and Polynesia to Siberia and Greenland, from Mongolia to Patagonia.\nLocations of Asian, Australian, and Melanesian ethic groups (including Indian, Middle Eastern, and Chinese) from Haak et al\u2019s dataset\nTrying to offer a single, coherent description of the physical appearances of such a diverse range of peoples is nearly impossible. They range in skin tone from almost white to as black as most of Africa; in stature from slight, Pygmy-like Negritos to the formidable Comanches (who in the 1800s were among the world\u2019s tallest measured people;) and in average reported IQs from >105 to >65. (Okay, IQ isn\u2019t appearance.)\nWe will be able to speak much more meaningfully about appearances when we address each of the sub-races.\nHere are the relevant portions from Haak et al\u2019s lovely dataset:\nOn the left, we have the Native American DNA, from the depths of the Amazonian rainforest to the tribes of upstate New York. The olive green section are the Inuit/Eskimo and related Russian groups. The Inuit (who appear to have wiped out the earlier Dorset people,) share a great deal of DNA with other Siberians, eg the Yakuts (a Turkic people) and the Nganasan, (who speak a highly divergent language of the Samoyedic branch of the Uralic family, which also includes the Finnish, Hungarian, and Sami languages\u2013language is a very bad guide to genetics.)\nThe pale peach are the Onge, who live in India\u2019s Andaman Islands; purple the people of Papua New Guinea and Australia.\nThe very yellow part is all of the groups normally thought of as \u201cEast Asian,\u201d like Japanese, Chinese, and Thai. Yellow is most dominant in the aboriginal people of Taiwan (who were there before the Chinese started migrating there in the past few hundred years,) and are the ancestors of the (not pictured) Polynesian peoples of Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand. (I think they picked up some Melanesian DNA on the way.)\nAnd on the right we have the various peoples of Siberia and central Asia.\nI think it an open question whether the Melanesians and Aborigines ought to be properly classed with the other Asians, or awarded their own clade.\nI stole this from Razib Khan, didn\u2019t I?\nAccording to Masatoshi Nei, a biology professor at Pennsylvania State University,[131] the ancestors of today\u2019s Asians and Caucasians split into two separate groups around 41,000 years ago, (give or take 15,000 years,) and their ancestors split from the ancestors of modern Africans\u2013the \u201cOut of Africa Event\u201d\u2013around 114,000 years ago, (give or take 34,000 years.)\nBERLIN (AP) \u2014 The human populations now predominant in Eurasia and East Asia probably split between 36,200 and 45,000 years ago, according to a study released Thursday.\nResearchers used new techniques to analyze genetic samples from the shin bone of a young man who died at least 36,200 years ago near Kostenki-Borshchevo in what is now western Russia. The study, published in the journal Science, concludes that Kostenki man shared genetic sequences with contemporary Europeans, but not East Asians.\nA separate study published last month in the journal Nature determined that a 45,000-year old sample found in Siberia contained sequences ancestral to both modern East Asians and Europeans.\nIn a genetic study in 2011, researchers found evidence, in DNA samples taken from strands of Aboriginal people\u2019s hair, that the ancestors of the Aboriginal population split off from the ancestors of the European and Asian populations between 65,000 and 75,000 years ago\u2014roughly 24,000 years before the European and Asian populations split off from each other. These Aboriginal ancestors migrated into South Asia and then into Australia\u2026\nA different study found:\nThe first complete sequences of the Y chromosomes of Aboriginal Australian men have revealed a deep indigenous genetic history tracing all the way back to the initial settlement of the continent 50 thousand years ago, according to a study published in the journal Current Biology today.\nThe Native Americans much more conveniently split off around 25,000 years ago.\nSo on the one hand, race is biological and real, and on the other, it\u2019s a social construct. Australian Aborigines are more closely related to other Asians than to, say, Europeans or Africans, but the Chinese are more closely related to Europeans than to Aborigines.\nOne reason why Australians and other Melanesians appear so divergent from other Asian populations maybe their Denisovan (or other human) DNA. Most (if not all) human groups appear to have picked up DNA from some other, non-Homo Sapiens source. Europeans, East Asians, and Native Americans all have a small percent of Neanderthal DNA. Africans, IIRC, have a small % of some local African homin. And Melanesians/Australians have a small % of Denisovan DNA (Denisovans were a less-well-known cousin of the Neanderthals.)",

Rowling offered her followers a thought about the Harvey Weinstein scandal.\nIn a Wednesday afternoon tweet, the Harry Potter author retweeted former White House advisor Sebastian Gorka who wrote Tuesday, \u201cThink: If Weinstein had obeyed [vice president Mike Pence\u2019s] rules for meeting with the opposite sex, none of those poor women would ever have been abused.\u201d\nPence reportedly won\u2019t even have a meal alone with a woman other than his wife, Karen, or attend events serving alcohol without her accompanying him.\nRowling shot back: \u201cIf the only thing preventing a man committing sexual assault is the presence of witnesses, he\u2019s too dangerous to be at liberty.\u201d\nIf the only thing preventing a man committing sexual assault is the presence of witnesses, he's too dangerous to be at liberty. https://t.co/9XswCIvFJC\n\u2014 J.K.

Weinstein has since been fired from The Weinstein Company. He has denied any allegations of sexual assault. \u201cAny allegations of non-consensual sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein,\u201d a representative for Weinstein told The New Yorker. \u201cMr. Weinstein has further confirmed that there were never any acts of retaliation against any women for refusing his advances. Mr. Weinstein obviously can\u2019t speak to anonymous allegations, but with respect to any women who have made allegations on the record, Mr. Weinstein believes that all of these relationships were consensual. Mr. Weinstein has begun counseling, has listened to the community and is pursuing a better path. Mr. Weinstein is hoping that, if he makes enough progress, he will be given a second chance.\u201d",

While we were told to anticipate some major deaths this season, she just wasn\u2019t one we were hoping to say goodbye to.\nSpoiler alert\u2026now would be the best time to stop reading if you haven\u2019t already seen the episode, or seen everyone sobbing about it on social media.\nThe internet took the death of Shiva pretty hard, and it was a heavily discussed topic on last night\u2019s episode of Talking Dead. Robert Kirman and Lil\u2019 Jon were the in-house guests and Kirman had this to say about Ezekiel and Shiva.\nI mean, it\u2019s a huge turning point for Ezekiel, losing Shiva, losing his people, this is a big deal for him, but Shiva, you know, somebody that has protected him, that he\u2019s protected, they\u2019ve got a great relationship. It\u2019s a big loss. It\u2019s a big loss for him, it\u2019s a big loss for everyone. I\u2019m upset too, man. I like tigers.\nWe\u2019re all upset. Quite honestly, we\u2019re expecting to be upset about this one for a while. While the nature of her death brought her relationship with King Ezekiel full circle, it couldn\u2019t have happened at a worse time. Honestly, it was just adding insult to injury.\nDuring last night\u2019s Talking Dead, Chris Hardwick brought up that Kirkman totally missed an opportunity to bring Shiva back as\u2026well\u2026a next level zombie.\nHardwick: You really missed an opportunity with whatever that industrial waste was for a radioactive zombie tiger, why not?\nKirkman: I mean, who says it\u2019s not happening?\nHardwick: All right, good, I just need a little bit of hope.\nThe short conversation was definitely laced with some sarcasm and quite frankly, we\u2019re glad it\u2019s not really an option they toyed with. Unless, of course, they\u2019re just yanking our chains and it\u2019s gonna happen and shock us all.\nHonestly, that\u2019s not an end we\u2019d like to see for Shiva, and we don\u2019t think King Ezekiel would be able to survive it.\nTags :chris hardwickKing EzekielRobert KirmanshivaTalking Deadthe walking dead\nJason Momoa Teases \u2018The Crow: Reborn\u2019 Production",

        "raw_content": "3 Keys to Creating a Successful Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy\nAh, the 21st century. How long we have been awaiting its arrival! Not that the cavemen were sitting in their caves, dreaming of iPhones and Mars Rovers. But there is a primal something in the human spirit that hunts down progress, that gathers innovation. From the discovery of obsidian for better arrowheads, to the global holding-of-breath and waiting-in-line in the hours leading up to a new iPhone\u2019s availability, we humans long to improve.\nAs we live with our hopes and our dreams, we live with our fears and limitations. Humans are extensively gifted, yet terribly distractible. But sometimes, when we work together, we can accomplish truly great things. Think of the pyramids, the Great Wall of China.\nThink of Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs. Wozniak was the brains behind the technology now glued to our ears, while Jobs had just the right touch of charisma-bolstered brilliance to market the now-ubiquitous Apple products. Take away one of them, and we would most likely still be stuck in the Age of Nokia.\nWhen it comes to establishing a Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy, you don\u2019t have to go it alone. We provide you with 3 keys to jump-start your Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy.\n3 Keys to Jump-Start Your Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy\n1. Use who you know (not \u2018what\u2019, but \u2018who\u2019).\nJones & Bartlett\u2019s guide to Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy states that identifying your target audience is a crucial first step to marketing. The 80/20 rule dictates that 80% of future clientele will come from 20% of existing patients. Direct your attentions towards them, taking time to network.\nOne helpful tip is to have a CRM (Client-relationship Management) that employees can use to catalog and store client information. That way, even if you haven\u2019t seen a patient in years, you can show you care in tangible ways, bolstering the relationship over time.\n2. Focus on SEO.\nSEO (Search Engine Optimization) is a way of creating background content with focused, thorough keywords that will bring your site up to a potential client, even if their search is fairly nebulous.\nIn order to become a reputed \u201cthought leader\u201d in Google\u2019s eyes, it\u2019s necessary to publish good content often. This is easier said than done. In order to publish content, you need to write a blog and keep it maintained. That\u2019s a bit of work.\nAll the Sports Medicine Marketing Strategies in the world are useless without a little elbow grease and a lot of time spent making it happen. But that\u2019s what we humans do: we make things happen.\nThere is one more tip, however, that could save you a lot of time and effort: contact Farotech. Our team of expert technicians can help streamline your website, and our writers can help create content that will A) draw the reader\u2019s attention with engaging, helpful information, and B) boost your place in Google search results.\nEnacting a Sports Medicine Marketing Strategy can seem daunting, but you don\u2019t have travel this journey alone. Farotech is here to help.\nWhat\u2019s the Deal With Paid Search Services? (and Why You Should Be Using Them!)",

(LP FieldKirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports)\nThe 2015 UAB at Tennessee football game has been moved to LP Field in Nashville, Tennessee vice chancellor and director of athletics Dave Hart announced today.\nThe game is set for Sept. 5, 2015 and will be the season-opener for both schools. The match-up was previously scheduled to be played at Neyland Stadium in Knoxville on the same date.\nTennessee\u2019s last regular-season game played at LP Field was against Wyoming in 2002. The Vols crushed the Cowboys in that season-opening contest 47-7.\n\u201cScott Ramsey and I have been in conversation about opening our 2015 season in Nashville for more than a year,\u201d said Tennessee vice chancellor and director of athletics Dave Hart. \u201cIt is exciting to have this come to fruition, and we look forward to opening our season in front of a great crowd in Nashville.\n\u201cWe have made the necessary adjustments to our 2015 football schedule in order for us to move our opening game against UAB to Nashville, which is a priority for us from the perspective of recruiting, our fans, and our alumni. We were scheduled to play Connecticut in 2015 and 2016, but we have a mutual agreement to suspend that series in order to provide us the opportunity to play in Nashville in 2015 and in Bristol in 2016. We will still play seven home games in Neyland Stadium in 2015, beginning with hosting Oklahoma on September 12.\u201d\nTennessee was scheduled to travel to UConn on Sept. 26, 2015 and host the Huskies on Sept. 3, 2016. But as Hart mentioned, that series has been postponed to dates to be announced.\nAfter opening the 2015 season vs. UAB, Tennessee is scheduled to host Oklahoma on Sept. 12. The Volunteers later host North Texas on Nov. 7 and will add another non-conference game at home.\nUAB plays all four of their 2015 non-conference games consecutively. After taking on Tennessee, the Blazers host Georgia State (Sept. 12) and South Alabama (Sept. 19) at Legion Field before traveling to face in-state rival Troy on Sept. 26.\nTennessee Future Football Schedules",

        "raw_content": "A net gain from outsourcing?\nDHS, Interior plan to use Networx for switch to managed network services\nScott Charbo knows the future of his Homeland Security Department backbone. And the future is now\u2014well, as soon as the Networx governmentwide acquisition contract is awarded and ready for agencies to use.\nThe DHS CIO said his agency is close to completing OneNet\u2014a consolidation of six WANs. But he is waiting for the General Services Administration to award the two-part, $20 billion Networx contract in March and May so DHS can finish the job.\n\u201cOneNet is almost up,\u201d he said after a conference sponsored by the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association\u2019s Bethesda, Md., chapter. \u201cAt least 40 percent of the circuits have migrated. We still have to move the Coast Guard and parts of the Transportation Security Administration.\u201d\nCharbo, like many other CIOs and network administrators, is seriously considering how much of his network can be outsourced to a managed-services provider\u2014likely through Networx\u2014and how much will be addressed by the IT Infrastructure Line of Business initiative. \u201cThis is the right model and where everyone should go,\u201d Charbo said.\nAgency and vendor experts recently said that handing over some or all of your network management responsibilities to a managed-services provider could provide cost savings, improved security and improved continuity of operations planning.\nBut experts warned that agency officials must detail their performance expectations to a specific level of granularity.\n\u201cYou should ask the vendor, \u2018How much do you love me?\u2019 \u201d Interior Department deputy CIO Ed Meagher said at a breakfast on managed services for COOP in Washington sponsored by Federal Computer Week Events. \u201cYou must come to an understanding based on what you are buying that they will be there when you need them, and you\u2019re not just one of several customers in line.\u201d\nCharbo, for instance, understands DHS\u2019 needs.\n\u201cWe are in a dual, multiprotocol, label-switching environment,\u201d he said. \u201cAfter Networx is awarded and we are using it, we will have everyone plug into the network and go.\u201d\nMeagher said Interior has similar challenges because it has so many disparate networks.\n\u201cWe will be one of the first ones to move to Networx,\u201d he said. \u201cIt gives us the opportunity to stop buying circuits. We can all save big bucks across government.\u201d\nInterior currently manages its network centrally, but it is distributed to the bureaus in an ad hoc way, Meagher said.\nNetworx is a precursor to what the Office of Management and Budget wants to do with the IT Infrastructure LOB. OMB expects agencies to save $29 billion over 10 years by consolidating their infrastructures around the LOB initiative. The GSA-led task force will focus on desktop or seat management, initially by establishing a definition and cost baseline. Other areas, including data networks and data centers, are in the works for 2008.\nBut that doesn\u2019t mean agencies are not aggressively moving to managed networks.\nAgencies\u2019 spending on network and communications services was $17.2 billion in 2006, and GSA expects it to grow at a 5 percent rate over the next four years.\nJim Williams, commissioner of GSA\u2019s Federal Acquisition Service, said the government\u2019s move to IP Version 6 and the agency\u2019s focus on mission-critical applications are the main reasons for this growth.\nWilliams suggested agencies look for areas that vendors could manage, such as firewalls, intrusion detection, vulnerability scanning and securing e-mail.\n\u201cAgencies should look at what the perimeter of their network is and where can attacks come into the network,\u201d he said. \u201cManaged network services can be about delivering the right amount of services and helping you understand what is going on with your network and why, so you can focus your attention more quickly.\u201d\nPaul Wohlleben, a partner with Grant Thornton LLP of Chicago, said agencies either are moving to managed services or acting as their own contractors and outsourcing pieces of their networks.\n\u201cManaged services are growing, and the consolidation of agencies\u2019 IT infrastructures [is] a big part of this,\u201d he said.\nWohlleben and others said the most important thing to consider when moving to managed services is ensuring that you set up a quality assurance program to oversee the contract (see box).\nMeagher said agencies should lay out specific expectations and have severe\u2014seven-figure\u2014penalties if the provider doesn\u2019t meet them.",

My plan is (was) to move away from the problem of affluence in reckless teen pics and see how a social ill like drug addiction is presented in an American feature circa late fifties. Based on its description, A Hatful of Rain (1957) fills the bill perfectly. Not only that but Anthony Franciosa's performance in the movie earned an academy award nomination that put him in competition with the likes of Guinness, Brando, Quinn, and Laughton. This I gotta see. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to locate it. I'm presently in the middle of writing a post about a very different and very cool film (planning to go live with it late Sunday night). Still, I'd like a chance to at least see A Hatful of Rain. Anybody know if a digital download or DVD version exists or if plans are in the works for a release?\nPosted by Thom on 13 November 2009 at 09:28 AM | Permalink\nIt's playing on TCM January 18th.\nPosted by: Jacqueline T Lynch | 14 November 2009 at 05:16 AM\nJacqueline, you're the greatest. Thanks! I'll set the DVR as soon as possible. 'Course I probably shouldn't wait that long to post again :D Have you seen it before? Zinnemmann directed some of my favorite films noir, westerns, and war dramas so I'm anxious to see how he tells this story.\nPosted by: Thom | 14 November 2009 at 07:11 AM\nI have seen it before, some great performances and a very stage-like quality to the scenes. It was on not too long ago, I can't remember when, but I discovered it accidently while flipping channels and I remember wishing I had known it was going to be on so I could have recorded it. Too bad I didn't, I could have sent you a DVD.\nThanks, Jacqueline. I read on imdb that Fox Movie Channel also plays it from time to time. I'll keep the DVR ready. Every time I think of Zinnemann I think of those overhead and long shots juxtaposed with emotional CUs in High Noon (probably my fav western). If this is a stage adaptation he must work in a different style. Still anxious to see it. Perhaps when I finally do sit down with it we can do a double review of it or something.",

        "raw_content": "Betta Splendens \u2013 commonly known as the betta or Siamese fighting fish.\nBetta fish are known for their aggressive temperament, they are highly territorial and will fight viciously to protect their ground.\nA solitary fish, Betta do not form schools as they will simply brawl with each other. If two male fish are kept together in the same tank, the fighting will never stop until one escapes or dies. Female betta fish are less aggressive but fighting will still occur if they are\nFamily: Osphronemidae\nSpecies: B. splendens\nBetta fish are native to the Mekong Basin of South-East Asia, an area spanning the three countries of Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia and China.\nIn Thai, the fish is called \u201cpla-kad\u201d (literally fighting-fish).\nJust like goldfish, Betta fish in the wild usually have darker colors such as brown, grey and dull green. They have been bred in captivity to display more recessive traits such as red, blue and bright orange.\nOther physical traits such as large and fancy tails are also selectively bred, they rarely occur in nature because they do not have an evolutionary advantage in the wild.\nJust like everything else in the world, rarity beautiful, it is no co-incidence that humans like keeping things which rarely occur naturally, rare fish fetch far higher prices than common fish among aquarium enthusiasts worldwide.\nAlthough Betta fish are quite common in fishtanks around the world because they are relatively simple to keep and breed, their numbers in the wild are dwindly and under threat. This is mainly due to habitat loss, as Betta fish are usually solitary creatures which require a large amount of space.\nDue to many factors such as improved healthcare and decreased conflict, the worldwide human population continues to skyrocket and South East Asia is no exception. Rice paddies and farms in Thailand are continuing to be developed, displacing much of the Betta Fish\u2019s natural habitat.\nAlthough Betta fish populations are declining in areas with growing human activity, their ability to survive in suitable environments is strong. A large population of Betta fish is well established in topical regions of Australia, they are considered to be a serious threat to the local ecosystem and government sponsored eradication programs have been implemented to prevent the spread of Betta fish. These fish have most likely be introduced from someone\u2019s aquarium.\nBetta fish are classified as \u201cinsectivores\u201d, meaning they exclusively consume zooplankton, small crustaceans, mosquito larvae and other aquatic insects.\nDespite their insectivore classification, Betta, especially those bred in captivity, will accept a wide variety of foods including fish pellets, brine, bloodworms, shrimp etc.\nThere is a common misconception that Betta fish can consume algae and other aquatic plant matter in your fish tank. This isn\u2019t true, Betta are not omnivores and consume protein based food sources primarily.\nBetta fish produce sexually. Male Betta fish perform a mating dance to attract a female. If the female is interested her color darkens and vertical lines known as \u201cbreeding bars\u201d will develop to display interest.\nBreeding bars on a female Betta fish \u2013 they are less ambiguous than human females!\nA very interesting trait of Betta fish is that the males have to build a house for the young to provide them with a place to live. This is highly attractive to the females.\nMale Betta fish working hard producing a bubble nest in hopes of rearing its young.\nEven if there is no females present, male Betta fish will continue to create and build nests.\nBubble nests are not free floating and always attach at the surface. In nature this is usually something that breaks the surface such as a rock, dead tree trunk or aquatic plant.\nA female produces eggs inside her body without the aid of males when she is ready to breed, however in order for these eggs to be released a \u201cnuptial embrace\u201d is required when the male hugs the female\u2019s body, causing her to release her eggs. During each embrace, the female will release 10-40 eggs, the pair will continue to embrace until the female has no eggs remaining.\nOnce the eggs are released, the male releases milt (semen) into the water to fertilize the eggs. Once the eggs are released, the male pick sup the eggs with his mouth and puts them into the bubble nest. Sometimes the female male help the male do this but usually she just eats up the eggs she has just laid.\nOnce the female has laid the eggs, the male will chase her away otherwise she will try to devour the eggs she has released. If the female cannot be chased away (she cannot escape) such as the case when they are kept together in a small space, the male will have no other choice but to try and kill the female to protect their offspring.\nThe eggs will be cared for by the male. The male betta fish ensures that the eggs remain in the egg, he will fight off any threats, put any eggs that have fallen out back inside and repair the nest from any damage. He does not need to work hard for too long to protect his babies because the incubation period is as short as 24 \u2013 40 hours. The newly hatched betta fish larvae will remain the the next for the following 2-3 days until they fully absorb the nutrients from the yolk sac in their egg.\nThe baby larvae fish develop the ability to move on their own, they enter a stage where they become \u201cfry\u201d, they can leave the egg on their own and begin the free-swimming stage.\nDuring the few weeks of their lives, the betta fish larvae can only use their gills for respiration. After 3-6 weeks of age, the labyrinth organ in beta fish allows them to breathe atmospheric oxygen. These figures are not concrete, the growth rate is extremely variable in betta fish.\nBetta fish are known to reach sexual maturity in as little as 4 months of age, many things in tropical areas, not just fish, experience a faster growth rate due to elevated temperatures allowing faster metabolism and higher rates of nutrient utilization.\nHuman organized competitive fish\nThe aggressive nature of Betta fish has long been observed by humans, organized fights of betta fish have occurred since the 19th century in parts of South East Asia, where Betta fish were specifically bred for their aggressive tendencies.\nIn the wild, Betta fish usually engage in combat for a few seconds/minutes before one fish retreats without significant damage. Betta fish specifically bred for their aggressive traits can last much longer, often until a fish becomes severely injured or even dead. A duel between two fish is considered to be finished when the loser retreats.\nA famous historical example demonstrating the popularity of betta fish fighting is in 1840, when the King of Thailand, a fan of Siamese fish fighting, gifted some of his prized specimens to the visiting English medical scientist Theodore Edward Cantor who wrote extensively about the experience.\nFirst use of Betta fish as pets in aquariums\nOne of the earliest recoreded instances of betta fish being domesticated as pets in the western world is in 1892, when the Famous French fish breeder and importer Pierre Carbonier (center) introduced this magnificent species of fish into Paris, France.\nIn 1896, another famous European fish importer from Germany named Paul Matte imported Betta fish from Moscow to Germany.\nTags: asianbeginnerbeginnersbettabreedingdietfeedingfishlife cycleoverfeedingreproduction",

        "raw_content": "More on Hog Poison\nTexas game wardens over the weekend wrapped up a successful six-day multiagency initiative, called Operation Bahia de Aransas, designed to increase law enforcement presence along the coastal bend region. The initiative was in response to increased commercial oyster activity in Aransas, Carlos and Mesquite bays.\nThroughout the week of Feb. 13, patrols were conducted by Texas game wardens in collaboration with officers from U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Air and Marine, U.S. Coast Guard, Aransas County Sheriff\u2019s Office, and the CBP Office of Field Operations.\nIn all, 67 citations and 15 warnings were written for Parks and Wildlife code violations relating primarily to commercial oyster harvest including many undersized oyster cases.\n\u201cOyster resources in Texas have declined over the last several years due to siltation from hurricanes and tropical storms, drought, flooding and high harvest pressure,\u201d said Lance Robinson, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Coastal Fisheries Division deputy director. \u201cA continued strong market demand for oysters has led some fishermen and dealers to resort to harvesting and buying undersize oysters. Hopefully this operation will serve as a deterrent to commercial fishermen and dealers to continue this practice.\u201d\nIn addition six arrests were also made including a U.S. Marshal Service warrant that was executed from a tug boat, an arrest warrant for assault on a federal officer, and a TPWD Class B arrest for a commercial oyster violation.\n\u201cThe high level of agency participation acted as a force multiplier and allowed us to expand our coverage in these areas,\u201d said Texas game warden Major Larry Young. \u201cThis Operation was definitely a success and the officers involved have done an outstanding job providing natural resource protection and public safety\u201d.",

So for two Republican President's and 1 Democratic?\nAnyway, I'm sure you and I have a different opinion of when tax dollars are \"wasted\".\nAnd for some reason, most Republicans don't mind as long as the President\nin power says he's a \"Conservative\".\nSadly... that characterization is correct. As much as Democrats don't mind if someone gives a country like... say Iran... an ENEMY since at least 1979, BILLIONS of dollars to spend on terrorism...\nOnce again... they're ALL shit\nBy the way, go back 50, 60 years... they ALL waste money.\nThat money was Obama just giving Iran back their own money.\nThe money was legally due to Iran. Iran had paid America for military equipment in 1979,\nbut then the Iranian revolution came and the hardware was never delivered. They gave us $400 million\nand we gave it back, plus interest.\nSo how responsible is it to give money to a country that you KNOW is promoting terrorism, along with the stupid fucking nuke deal that people do not realize is a joke, and you KNOW they are using that money to grow more terrorists?\n... but it's ok because we owed them money right?\nCome on old... no way was that the right thing to do.\nIt was their money. We didn't give it to them. Right or wrong, it was owed to them.\nAnd I'm not going to get into a debate about Iran or the Nuclear deal.\nI will just say, if you think the corruption and waste is the same as it has always been,\nyou need to pay closer attention.\nThe same? No, I don't believe it's the same... it has gotten progressively worse as the years go on, and there is NO ONE innocent.\nOwed to them... so NO OTHER president gives it to them BECAUSE they are anti-US and pro-terrorist, but it's ok for Obama.\nI just don't understand this point of view.\nA couple of links to help you understand it better ...\nThe Obama administration allowed $1.7 billion in cash to go to Iran earlier this year. The money, however, was a settlement of a decades-old legal claim between the two countries. An initial payment of $400 million was handed over on Jan. 17, the same day Iran\u2019s government agreed to release four American prisoners.\nObama administration officials had initially denied the two transactions were linked. But later, officials acknowledged the U.S. had withheld the cash to pressure Iran to move forward with the releases and guarantee the Americans were allowed to leave Iran.\nThe remaining $1.3 million, apparently interest on Iranian cash held in the U.S. since the 1970s,was handed over in two later payments in January and February.\nhttp://www.latimes.com/nation/politics/trailguide/la-na-trailguide-third-presidential-donald-trump-is-right-the-u-s-did-pay-1476931849-htmlstory.html\nhttp://www.politifact.com/georgia/statements/2017/jun/06/karen-handel/Handel-pushes-details-Iran-deal-terror-support/\nI don't doubt that we owed it to them...\nWhat I don't and never will support is giving money (owed or not) to a mortal enemy.\nWe KNOW that they used the money to support terrorism, there is no way in hell that we should've given them the money.... so that they could fuck us or other innocents with it.\nI should have clarified this earlier...\nKinda like when they helped us perpetrate terrorist acts when we sold them arms and Reagan used that money to fund the Sandinistas.\nAnd like when we terrorized their citizenry by overthrowing their democratically elected leader and installed the Shah in 1953.\nPerspective is powerful...\nExactly... I know the truth... and it sickens me\nWe are reaping what we have sown. And by that second \"We\" I mean people who are long dead. Thanks.\nYes... and \u201cwe\u201d will continue to do so until someone stops the vicious cycle.\nIn order to do that we must expose, convict, and REFUSE to keep re-electing the same criminals.\nNot just the current GOP twatwaffles, but ALL of the twatwaffles.\nLet's not fool ourselves, our involvement with Iran isn't exactly on the up and up either. Don't kid yourselves if you don't think we want a regime friendly to us, the straights of Hormuz is a goal for us.\n1979 wasn't that long ago, and it should be reminded that their view of us and behavior towards us probably is reflective of that.\nIt's been a helluva lot longer than that Jamie, this had been the American political machines (see big business owned) modus operandi for a long damn time.\nJust little ole jaded USN Bengal here...\nit's ok folks,\nnothing to see,\nmove along now... the old man is a little crazy, but harmless\nAnd as long as the system of funding the politicians remains this way...\nI've read the majority of people receiving public assistance are rural white Southerners.\nhttps://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/02/gop-base-poverty-snap-social-security/516861/",

        "raw_content": "https://sports.yahoo.com/usain-bolt-casually-ties-nfl-combines-40-yard-dash-record-sweatpants-203431086.html\nAt the 2019 Super Bowl Experience on Saturday, Bolt unofficially tied the NFL scouting combine\u2019s 40-yard dash record with a 4.22 rumble. .....Without any specific training, and while donning sweatpants and tennis shoes, Bolt tied Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross\u2019 record from the 2017 combine....What makes things even more wild is that Bolt appeared to slow up at the end, in part because he was going to run into a padded barrier.\nlol. And Bolt is 32 years old and retired as a competitive sprinter, and he isn't even very fast in the first half of a 100 meter race. I always get a big chuckle when football players brag about how they are as fast or faster than the world's best sprinters.\nA 66% completion rate as a high school QB is impressive to say the least.\nI'll take Logan Smothers and how he has done so far as a HS player. You can't coach speed, and that is very important to have in SF's offense at the QB position. He has no problem running the ball and if his passing improves, which it will the longer he plays and gets coached at HS and then by MV, he'll be a good QB for us.\nMy bad...I was referencing LM. My apologies\nIf this was on a standard 165 yard indoor track, that probably amounts to a sub-50 400m outdoor time. As a junior. That is a great combination of strength and speed for a qb. I don\u2019t have a clue as to what his 40 would be. Of all the great sprinters I\u2019ve been around on the track, nobody ran the 40.\nDon\u2019t use Bolt as a measuring stick for anything. He isn\u2019t human.\nThey have a 200m hydro banked track down there so the conversion is a bit less than on a 165 yard track.\nalabamahusker Scout Team 15 Year Member\nI saw several games of his last season as it is literally right down the road..\nThe kid is quick no doubt.\nI am holding out on an overall QB assessment as that little of an observation sample doesn\u2019t mean much...\nalabamahusker, Feb 4, 2019\nThis is a really fun debate to talk about, hits home with me. I was pretty tall, and had a really fast 100 meter time. But I was by no means quick, my 40 was fast, but not as impressive as my 100 meter, and while I never ran the 10 yard dash, that would have been average at best. I still remember running suicides (one sideline to the other) and seeing guys that my 100 was better than beating me, because they could get up to speed faster. Another time, we were doing spring conditioning and the coaches knew my times, we had a drill where we started on our stomach and then sprinted 20 yards to work on core and reaction and sprinting. I couldn't win a single one of those, and one of my coaches was coming with \"you are obviously dogging it, you should be winning every single one of these!\" I just couldn't get up to speed as fast as others.\nPersonally, i'll take a guy that has a lower top end speed but can get to his top end the quickest. If he gets caught from behind, it is what it is, but some of the guys that are really fast but take longer to get up and going might not even break away to get caught from behind. It's why there are WRs that are considered \"striders\". In the 40, I wasn't to top speed yet. I feel like I was in the 100s, but everyone is different. There's a reason that many times someone that wins the 60m indoors at NCAAs isn't the same as who wins the 100m, the start is so crucial.\nsilvercityHUSKER, CO4NU and All 'N' 011808 like this.\nYeah, I would agree with that for football. In the 4 x 100m relay, I used to take this into consideration all the time based on who I put where and how far they actually ran. Every leg in this relay is not actually 100m based on where the handoffs are exchanged. That's why 100m splits can mean absolutely nothing because one guy might be running closer to 115m or something like that while two others are running less than 100m.\nMy top end wasn't bad either, but on suicides I would get beat by way more than could beat me at 100 or even the 40s. I don't think I have a fast twitch muscle in my body except my eyelids. I'm not a slow blinker.\nthe fountainhead and Huskerthom like this.\nI may not know much about running times because the only time I ever run was chasing a calf that got away from the herd, but it makes sense that the 10 yard time is most important (with the ability to change direction) is the most important for someone starting from the backfield (got to get past the line of scrimmage). I can also see a 40 yard time being more important for wide receiver to get open down field faster.\nP.S. The calf usually won.",

        "title": "[TechRadar] Review: Updated: Microsoft Surface Pro 4 | Forum Authority [TechRadar] Review: Updated: Microsoft Surface Pro 4",
        "raw_content": "There's no doubt about it, the Surface Pro 3 was wildly successful, even going as far as to inspire third parties to make their own 2-in-1s in a similar vein. It should come as no surprise then that when the next iteration rolled around, it delivered only slight refinements over its predecessor. And that isn't necessarily a bad thing.\nThe slimmer form factor and increased display size do wonders for the Surface Pro 4. Even the Type Cover has seen subtle changes. While it may not seem like much on the surface (ha), Microsoft Devices team lead Panos Panay and his crew have crafted with the Pro 4 a sort of love letter to their long-time supporters who've taken the time to issue feedback along the way.\nThe Surface Pro 4 is evidence that Microsoft is listening, and its response is stellar.\nDespite creating a top-end tablet, not all has been sunny for Microsoft and its fans as of late.\nHowever, the firm has made long strides in turning the corner recently.\nFollowing a rocky start to 2016 namely involving faulty power management, Microsoft finally released a Surface firmware patch in late February that is widely believed to have resolved the issues. Addressing anything left in the aftermath were 17 different updates that arrived in mid-April.\nA recent controversy known as the 'Sleep of Death' has led some Surface Pro 4 owners reverting back to its predecessor. Though it was patched up with a handful of updates (including one that claimed to boost battery life) after tracing the issue back to Windows Hello, the Surface Pro 4 was still failing to automatically rotate the display orientation in conjunction with the screen itself.\nWe can only hope that with the Anniversary Update imminent, which introduces touch-centric features like Windows Ink, major technical barriers like this can be avoided altogether. In that case, July can't come soon enough, unless you plan on waiting until then to make the jump from Windows 7 or 8.1.\nHowever, perhaps making up for those mistakes in the eyes of its UK users, Microsoft stealthily launched a Surface Pro 4 in June featuring 1TB of internal storage space and a free leather sleeve as a bonus. Available for pre-order now, the 1TB model that arrived stateside at the turn of the year will ship starting June 30.\nMicrosoft managed to up the device's screen size by a few hairs, from the 2014 model's straight 12 inches to this year's 12.3 inches, without affecting its footprint at all. That is, unless you count the Redmond firm shaving over half a millimeter off of its thickness, from 9.1mm to 8.4mm this year \u2013 all while maintaining support for full-fat mobile processors.\nSecondly, the team managed to bring the display's optical stack \u2013 the series of sensors, diodes and pixels beneath the glass \u2013 even closer to the glass this time around, a key point of Microsoft's trademarked PixelSense screen technology. This helped the firm bring the slate's thickness down by half a millimeter.\nFor the rest of us, it simply means more realistic-looking movies and more vibrant photos and games. However, considering Microsoft kept to its rare 3:2 aspect ratio to best emulate the notepad experience for the stylus users, you'll see even thicker black bars sandwiching your favorite films in 16:9 \u2013 and even more so for those in 21:9, or widescreen format.\nThe reason for this is two fold. For one, this stylus is even more comfortable to hold than the last as a result \u2013 your index finger rests just above the main function button on the flat end. Secondly, this surface (no pun intended) is coated with thin, powerful strip magnets that allow it to cling onto the tablet's left side. The age of stylus loops is over.\nThe new Type Cover is also slightly thicker and far more rigid than before, allowing for deeper key travel and punchier feedback \u2013 not to mention a sturdier, quieter surface to type on \u2013 that brings it so much closer to the true laptop keyboard. Panay's team also managed to widen the touchpad and coat it in glass rather than plastic.\nKane Fulton and Gabe Carey have also contributed to this review\nWhat you see here is the slightly-higher-than-mid-range version of the Surface Pro 4, which will set you back a cool $1,299 (\u00a31,079, AU$1,999) \u2013 and that's before picking up a $129 (\u00a3109, AU$199) Type Cover. That said, it would be smart to go with either this model or the one just below it, with the same Core i5 and half the RAM and storage, for $999 (\u00a3849, AU$1,499).\nFrankly, it's not a great value, and \u2013 oddly enough \u2013 Microsoft hides the option to purchase the Core m3 version outright behind a \"Configure Your Device\" button on its US web store.\nNow, the Spectre x360 makes for an easier comparison, and on paper does seem to stretch your dollar a lot further. For the same price as the Surface Pro 4 unit in question, you could buy HP's leading Ultrabook complete with a current, dual-core Intel Core i7 chip \u2013 not i5 \u2013 with Intel HD Graphics 520. This package matches the Surface for RAM and storage, meanwhile tripling its USB ports and claiming to last two hours longer on a charge.\nSo, is the Surface Pro 4 worthy of opening your wallet? That's a more difficult question to answer, because \u2013 from the new keyboard cover to the stylus improvements \u2013 everything that you can't quantify about the device is exactly what makes it so worthwhile.\nRegardless, Microsoft promises up to 9 hours of video playback on a single charge, and these numbers simply aren't close to that. Sure, these figures are far better than last year's Surface Pro 3, despite the serious screen resolution bump, which should not be overlooked. But they still can't hold a candle to neither Apple's leading laptop nor its top tablet \u2013 much less comparable Windows-running hybrids.\nLongevity, or lack thereof, then is about the only thing about the Surface Pro 4 that's holding it back from truly, honestly replacing your laptop \u2013 or at least your MacBook Air specifically. Otherwise, the machine offers somewhat below-average lasting power.\nSpeaking of which, the Surface Pro 4 comes in asking for more and offering less in its entry-level model than last year, which will be tough to overlook for the budget conscious. The power gap between the Core m3 chip and the Core i5 is wide enough that I'd recommend you not bother with the former. Furthermore, even after testing an updated unit, the Pro 4 battery life leaves a bit to be desired \u2013 despite improving upon the previous model.\nhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/techradar...QI/1290286",

After announcing the winners of the second Hyperloop Pod Competition on Monday, the SpaceX founder said he would take the company\u2019s Hyperloop pusher pod for a spin this week to see what it could do when it wasn\u2019t pushing student pods. Now, we have our answer: break speed records.\nIn an Instagram post, Musk confirms that he broke the just-set record with the pod, hitting a speed of 355 km/h (220 mph). He thinks he will be able to hit half the speed of sound \u2014 more than 500 km/h (310 mph) \u2014 with the pod next month following a few adjustments. That would be an almost 50 percent speed increase, so no doubt the world will be waiting to see if he can make it happen.\nWe took the SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pusher pod for a spin by itself a few days ago to see what it could do when not pushing student pods (some need a push to get going, e.g. passive maglev). Got up to 355 km/h (220 mph) before things started ?. Kind of like racing with a tugboat. Maybe able get past 500 km/h (about half speed of sound) next month with a few tweaks or maybe tiny pieces \u2026\nA post shared by Elon Musk (@elonmusk) on Aug 30, 2017 at 10:27pm PDT\nEventually, Musk is hoping a Hyperloop system could be used in the underground tunnels his Boring Company is developing. They recently received approval to extend their test tunnel in Hawthorne, California, by an additional ~2.5 kilometers (1.6 miles), and according to Musk, a 29-minute Hyperloop from New York to Washington, D.C. is also in the works.\nIf Musk has his way, underground Hyperloop routes could be added throughout the country and, eventually, the world.

        "raw_content": "Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor and We Happy Few Headline Newest Xbox Game Pass Additions\nGame Pass\u2019 lineup of games continues to grow ever more alluring.\nGame Pass as a service has become exceptionally great value in the last few months, with Microsoft and third parties adding some of the biggest games of the generation to the service, making its lineup that much more alluring. And such is the case with the newest batch of games being added to the service as well, which Microsoft announced today.\nLet\u2019s start with the game that will be added on January 17\u2013 Compulsion Games\u2019 We Happy Few, their controversial survival game, joins Game Pass tomorrow. The LEGO Movie Videogame joins the lineup tomorrow as well. On January 24, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor joins the lineup, allowing many to play the game that was famous for its emergent Nemesis System first hand. On that same day, Saints Row: The Third will also be available on the service.\nBarring We Happy Few, which remains divisive, all of these are fun enough games, and if you haven\u2019t spent money on them (and were never going to), this warrants at least you checking them out. Thankfully, Game Pass continues to move from strength to strength for now.\nTagged With: compulsion games, game pass, Microsoft, MIddle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, monolith productions, Saints Row The Third, The LEGO Movie Videogame, THQ Nordic, TT Games, Volition Studios, warner bros interactive entertainment, we happy few, Xbox One\nPlatforms: PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Linux, Mac",

        "raw_content": "Virtual Box: Creating a Virtual Machine\nVirtual Box is, to quote the Virtual Box website,\n. . . a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). See \u201cAbout VirtualBox\u201d for an introduction.\nVirtual Box was created by Sun Microsystems and was acquired by Oracle when it bought Sun.\nHere is Arch Linux running in a virtual machine (VM). Behind it and to the left, you can see Virtual Box and, behind that, the incidence of Opera I\u2019m typing in right now.\nI have been mucking with Virtual Box for some time and have finally figured it out.\nI had it working last week with one problem: I could not establish a consistent internet connection for the virtual machine. In fact, in working on that, I ended up blowing up my entire installation and having to rebuild the computer.\nSo I tried again, but this time I downloaded the current release (v. 3.2.12) from the Virtual Box site. (Debian Linux, which I\u2019m running right now, values being stable above being bleeding edge, so it is often the case that that the software packages in the Debian repositories are not the most recent.) It installed smoothly and, unlike the earlier versions I had been working with, contained all the elements in one package (in earlier versions, several different packages were necessary).\nI then created a virtual machine; it worked the first time and included the internet connection with an effortless one-click setting.\nI also installed Virtual Box on my Windows box and verified that the interface looks the same on both Windows and Linux. (Microsoft, though, really doesn\u2019t seem to like Virtual Box\u2013during the install, Windows threw about six warnings telling me to stop installing it because it might threaten the stability of the \u201ccurrent operating system.\u201d So far, it hasn\u2019t, but I don\u2019t intend to use it there.*\nThe rest of this post will summarize the steps of creating a virtual machine. Next will be a series on installing Arch Linux.\nTo configure a new VM, click \u201cNew\u201d in the Virtual Box window to start the process:\nThe next Window prompts you to name the VM and select the type of operating system. The choices are:\nIn the next screen, use the slider or the text box to allocate memory to the VM. This memory will not be available to your normal OS while the VM is running.\nThe next screen prompts you to create or select a hard disk. Note that this is a virtual hard disk, space reserved for the virtual machine. Selecting to use an existing one means selecting an existing virtual hard disk. Once you make the selection, a hard disk configuration dialog begins; the first step is to choose between a fixed or a dynamic hard disk:\n\u201cFixed\u201d sets aside a fixed amount of space.\n\u201cDynamic\u201d allocates space as needed up to the maximun set in the next dialog.\nAfter that, a screen with a slider similar to the memory allocation screen shown above allows you to choose the size of the hard disk. I allowed 10 GB for Arch, more than the default recommendation, but the actual size on my hard drive after a bare-bones installation is slightly less than 1 1/2 GB.\nVirtual Box will display a summary of your choices, with the option to go back to change something or to create the disk now. Clicking \u201cFinish\u201d creates the VM.\nYou have an empty drive ready to accept an installation.\n*The Linux geek in me chuckles at the use of \u201cWindows\u201d and \u201cstability\u201d in the same sentence, but that\u2019s neither here nor there.\nGWP 2010-12-08 #168: A Listener Needs Your Help!

        "raw_content": "Mr. Armando Falcon, Jr.\nDear Mr. Falcon:\nThe purpose of this letter is to request that the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) consider a rulemaking to strengthen the corporate governance of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and require the Enterprises to make certain public disclosures.\nIn undertaking such steps, OFHEO will be advancing goals outlined by the President in his Ten-Point Plan for Corporate Responsibility and Protecting America's Shareholders: providing better information to investors; making corporate officers more accountable; and developing a stronger, more independent audit system. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has a leadership role in pursuing these goals with respect to publicly traded companies, and it is within the purview of OFHEO's regulatory mission to extend generally applicable principles of governance and disclosure to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Even though they are not subject to direct SEC oversight, as publicly traded companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should be subject to no lesser standard than applies to other companies.\nIn September 2001, OFHEO published a proposed rule to codify the corporate governance requirements for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that currently exist in OFHEO's guidance to the Enterprises. We request a further rulemaking that would include additional requirements to strengthen corporate governance of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. OFHEO should work closely with the SEC as OFHEO pursues efforts to apply to the Enterprises the corporate governance recommendations in the President's Ten-Point Plan.\nIn April 2002, OFHEO publicly announced a review of public disclosures by the Enterprises. It is our understanding that OFHEO plans to assess whether current disclosures meet SEC criteria, and also to consult with analysts about additional disclosures that would enhance market transparency. OFHEO's public announcement does not commit to a rulemaking on disclosures. We request that OFHEO consider a rulemaking to require each Enterprise to disclose publicly the information that is required of publicly traded companies by the SEC, including any additional disclosures SEC requires in the future. While the Enterprises now voluntarily comply with many of these disclosures, they are not required to do so. Such voluntary compliance might be abandoned at a time when it is most needed.\nOFHEO should also consider disclosures to enhance market transparency related to the unique issues involved in the operation of government-sponsored enterprises. OFHEO should study the disclosures favored by the Multidisciplinary Working Group on Enhanced Disclosures.\nAs OFHEO considers a rulemaking to strengthen the corporate governance and public disclosures of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, I and others at the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) are eager to work with you to ensure the best possible rule and supporting analysis. At your earliest convenience, OMB staff would like to meet with your staff to discuss this effort.\n/omb/inforeg/text/ofheo_prompt052902.html",

        "raw_content": "(Full disclosure: I\u2019ve known Rudin for decades and worked closely with him when I was an RNS national correspondent in the 1990s. Nor is Rudin's the only Jewish top-story list out there. However, I'm confining myself to his alone in this post because of its widespread use by non-Jewish, RNS subscribers.)\nHere\u2019s the link to Rudin\u2019s full top-10 column for 2018. And here\u2019s what he said about the Pittsburgh mass killing:\n1. The Tree of Life synagogue shooting\nThe \u201cslaughter of the innocents\u201d in a Pittsburgh synagogue in October was the single worst anti-Jewish attack in U.S. history, with 11 worshippers killed (among them were two of my cousins, Cecil and David Rosenthal). The swift public revulsion and denunciation of the massacre cut across all religious, ethnic and racial boundaries and resulted in a vast outpouring of support for the American Jewish community\nRudin\u2019s third place pick was also about increased anti-Semitism, though this time he referred to the situation in Europe as well as the U.S.\n3. Increase in anti-Semitic incidents\nThere was a sharp rise of overt anti-Semitic acts in both Europe and the United States in 2018. In the U.S., besides the Tree of Life shootings, a mural of the Star of David was defaced at Duke University in North Carolina and the office walls of a psychologist and Holocaust scholar at Columbia\u2019s Teachers College in Manhattan were sprayed with anti-Semitic graffiti.\nIn Europe, swastikas and other graffiti expressing hatred for Jews appeared on public buildings, cemeteries and synagogues in Germany and France.\nTwo separate polls in Europe found that 1 in 4 Europeans expressed anti-Semitic views. At the same time, 38 percent of Jews living in Europe considered leaving the politically unstable continent because of the growing number of right-wing governments and ultra-nationalist movements.\nBut why separate the Pittsburgh incident from the trend for which it is a dramatically tragic example?\nOne-offs happen in connection with all sorts of issues. But isn't it more telling to connect the dots so that the bigger picture \u2014 and bigger problem \u2014 is more clearly in focus?\nAlso, I would have added Europe\u2019s growing Muslim population, with its widespread religious and political disdain for Jews sustained by the generations-long Israel-Palestinian conflict, as another prime reason for the continent\u2019s spike in anti-Semitic incidents.\nRudin\u2019s third important story selection?\nHere\u2019s where the we-can\u2019t-quite-wait-until-the-year\u2019s-actual completion rule kicked in for him. He choose the U.S. moving its embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv, an act I considered little more than a politically motivated photo-op with little material gain for Israel.\nI\u2019d say it's more likely President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to quickly withdraw remaining U.S. military forces from Syria, which occurred on Sept. 19, after Rudin\u2019s RNS deadline. (Monday, Trump indicated he would slow the length of time it will take to complete the Syria withdrawal. Given that, and Trump's erratic decionmaking, we'll just have to see how fast this actually happens.)\nThis move, whenever it happens, has way more possible ramifications for Israel and the larger Middle East because it cedes much of the military theater to Iran, Russia, and Lebanese Hezbollah. This could result in more attempts to strike Israel, and for Israel\u2019s military to strike back.\nSo having combined Rudin\u2019s first and third pick, and slotting the Syria pullout in second place instead of the embassy move, my number three (and his number five) is the growing divide between American Jews and Israelis over political and religious issues.\nThis divide holds the very real possibility of putting in danger Israel\u2019s security \u2014 much of it bolstered by American Jewish political, emotional and tribal ties. Because if growing numbers of American Jews continue to loose interest or even become hostile to Israel, so will more non-Jewish Americans and American politicians.\nHere\u2019s Rudin again.\n5. The growing split between American Jews and Israel\nThere was much public worry about reports of a \u201cparting of the ways\u201d between Israel and some sectors of the American Jewish community over issues such as religious pluralism, the treatment of women and the widening cultural differences between the two countries. The largest number of the world\u2019s Jews now lives in Israel, a trend likely to accelerate as a result of that nation\u2019s increasing Jewish birth rate.\nThe rest of Rudin\u2019s top-10 is, I believe, up for debate as to their sequential importance. Rather than debate them here, I invite readers to read his list in full and make your own decisions. If you like, share your thoughts in the comments section below. Here\u2019s that link again.\nThere is, however, one more place in the list that the RNS deadline again tripped up Rudin\u2019s list. That would be in his number 10, notable deaths in 2018. Had he the time to include him, I\u2019m sure Rudin would have added famed Israeli novelist Amos Oz to his list.\nOz died Dec. 28. RNS published Rudin\u2019s column on Dec. 27.\nThis clearly is an example of the power of deadlines to impact history -- or at least the historical record.\nNewer PostAn Episcopal priest bolts for the Catholic Church, but will news story answer the obvious questions?\nOlder PostWhen covering Catholic wars over sex, it's clear there are questions the Gray Lady refuses to ask",

Joan Borysenko, medical scientist, psychologist and educator, possesses an unforgettable warmth. She openly strives to \u201cmeet people where they are\u201d and in doing so, instantly establishes rapport. Her presentations sound more like spiritual inspiration than medical advice, but her professional accomplishments and scientific credentials are unquestionable: An elite education from Harvard Medical School including three post-doctoral fellowships, groundbreaking work as a clinician, co-founder and director of one the first Mind/Body clinics in the US, and a thriving career as an author of fourteen books including the New York Times bestseller Minding the Body, Mending the Mind.\nYet, what truly distinguishes her in the field of Alternative and Complementary Medicine is the fact that she walks her talk. Through the experiences of her own challenges and personal transformation, she has effectively bridged scientific credibility with spiritual integrity. As a result, Borysenko radiates an authentic love and compassion that endears her to both professional and lay audiences alike.\nSuperConsciousness Magazine is honored to bring you Dr. Borysenko as this issue\u2019s featured interview.\nSC: You\u2019ve played an important role in bringing about a broader, more comprehensive understanding of the nature of health, healing and wellness. What do you see as the relevant differences between traditional, pharmaceutical-based medicine, the integration of alternative therapies into our current health care practices, and the pursuit of a greater understanding about wellness?\nJB: I\u2019ve been in this field since when it was first called holistic medicine in the 1970\u2019s, so I\u2019ve had a long time to watch the evolution of medicine. During that time, what I\u2019ve noticed are many concerns and attitudes that bring people to alternative medicine. On one end of the spectrum are those people who are simply just trying to avoid pharmaceutical medicine. Rather than looking at health and wellness to include all the forces of life, from environmental forces to emotional forces to spiritual kinds of things, you have just the opposite: Those who approach alternative healing as in \u201cThis is a way that I can avoid chemotherapy.\u201d\nYet, The National Institute of Complementary and Alternative Medicine describes illness as an opportunity for personal growth and healthcare providers as able to facilitate a person\u2019s growth by working along with them. From my point of view, that is what wellness is all about.\nThe National Institute of Complementary and Alternative Medicine describes illness as an opportunity for personal growth and healthcare providers as able to facilitate a person\u2019s growth by working along with them. From my point of view, that is what wellness is all about.\nWhen I think about wellness, it includes psychological health, human maturation, and spiritual growth. Together, they are all a part of wellness and exist at the opposite end of the spectrum from the people that attempt to avoid treatment. And, of course, there\u2019s everything in between.\nWhat I do see in this country is a definite interest, a growing consumer driven interest, in looking at wellness. And that, of course, is why hospitals have put in their own wellness departments and complementary medicine departments. It\u2019s really because that\u2019s what the public is asking for. Unfortunately, many of those departments, to be quite honest, don\u2019t really make it because they\u2019re not utilized well, or they\u2019re a hodgepodge.\nClinics will bring in somebody who does Reiki, another who does acupuncture, someone who teaches mindfulnessbased stress reduction, and somebody who teaches yoga. There\u2019s a sense that it\u2019s a little bit like complementary, but healthcare providers can easily fall into the trap of really becoming like specialists of any type who only see their specialty instead of the whole.\nTrue complementary medicine follows that definition of supporting the growth of the whole person and the facilitation of that growth no matter what discipline you\u2019re in. It\u2019s a rare clinic that\u2019s able to bring it all together, and that\u2019s the challenge. The alternative for a person seeking wellness is to put together a team, because putting together the team for one\u2019s self is an extraordinarily empowering thing and an important part of the process. At the same time, you have to be extremely motivated to do that as well as possess a certain capacity to figure out what kind of treatments you might need and where to look.\nI think we have an awfully long way to go but at least we\u2019re moving in the right direction. For most people it is much easier to ask for a pill or ask for a homeopathic remedy or go for an acupuncture treatment than it is to reflect on one\u2019s life and understand that adverse childhood experiences have a relationship to health later in life.\nSC: How important is it to address childhood experiences for obtaining or maintaining wellness?\nOnce a person experiences being diabetic, having heart disease or obesity, it\u2019s very difficult behaviorally to exercise or to change the diet when it is relational to their childhood. Most people don\u2019t want to go there, and that\u2019s the challenge most people are up against. The most interesting research that\u2019s come out in the last decade is called the ACE studies.* [Adverse Childhood Experiences]\nThe ACE studies really gets to the bottom of things. If we really want to talk about wellness, we need to start with our children, and to do that, first we have to heal ourselves. We have to go far enough back and address our issues so that we don\u2019t automatically hand the difficulties we had in our families off to our kids. Research shows this to be a very important part of healing, but it\u2019s a hard sell for people.\nSC: What have you found that helps people be more committed to negotiating that path?\nJB: It\u2019s very empowering for people when they realize they can learn how to change their breathing, learn meditation, learn mindfulness, learn yoga, and notice right away a decrease in symptoms. That\u2019s very basic, and the first set of skills people have to learn.\nFrom there, the next step is to address emotional intelligence and the fact that there\u2019s a tremendous amount of chronic stress that comes from the state of learned helplessness related to such thoughts as \u2018whatever I do is never good enough. When anything goes wrong, it\u2019s my own fault. That this is the story of my life and it\u2019s pervasive through every part of my life.\u2019 People begin to understand their explanatory style, and only with that awareness can people actually look at their thoughts and make other choices.\nQuestions are asked like, \u2018How do you manage stress? What is it to be stress hardy?\u2019 And that leads directly into \u2018Where did you learn these things?\u2019 Emotions that have been most familiar throughout life are addressed and questioned with \u2018What have you always done with those emotions?\u2019\nWhy people want to be done with it is because they become so miserable. That\u2019s always the impetus. There are relatively few people who simply say \u201cwell, my life is pretty good and I have a sense that if I did all this work it would be even better.\u201d\nThere was certainly an emphasis on emotional literacy and it touches on childhood and the kinds of things we learned as children. When you have issues left from childhood, you\u2019re often left with a sense of learned helplessness and that helplessness ripens into depression. That\u2019s actually the best cognitive model of depression and that comes from Dr. Martin Seligman\u2019s work on Positive Psychology.\nSC: What is the relationship between the manifestation of physiological and psychological disease, reviewing childhood issues, and forgiveness and self-forgiveness?\nJB: The second book I wrote, Guilt is the Teacher, Love is the Lesson, was based on nine years of clinical observations; that there were always people who picked up the ball and ran with it.\nI noticed that a lot of people just don\u2019t like themselves and they were always down on themselves. And, of course, they blame themselves, they can\u2019t forgive themselves, they project that, they blame others, they can\u2019t forgive others. After watching all of this, I began to notice the qualities of those who did not transform themselves.\nYou know, the word \u2018heal\u2019 really comes from the Anglo Saxon root haelen, which means to make whole: A human being with a soul, as a human being with a body, with emotion, with a family system \u2013 all of those things.\nThose that could not heal were still fragmented, they were emotionally bothered and their symptoms weren\u2019t improving at all. And when I really began to ask what is it that prevents people from healing, it became very clear that the largest thing was holding onto regrets and resentments, which came directly out of childhood experiences and the subsequent lens then through which they viewed the world.\nI sent a lot of people to therapy over the years, and many of them learned. They were actually glad to begin to touch on those things once they really realized the amount of pain they carried. Through the years, I\u2019ve also been a tremendous proponent of the Hoffman Quadrinity Process.\nThe Hoffman Process views the human being as a quandrinity, or four parts: A physical body, within that body the adult reasoning intellectual self, and an emotional self that is frequently the unhealed emotional child that carries on a dialogue with the intellect. And, then, of course, there is a person\u2019s spiritual self.\nThere are other people who really start to transform in that place of uncertainty. They start to do the things that maybe they\u2019ve known were important before, but are really important now like reaching out and looking for who truly are their allies. \u2018Who are my mentors? What can I learn?\u2019\nThe process includes healing your relationships with your parents, understanding how you developed as you did, and how those patterns of behavior and thought were developed since childhood. It\u2019s a weeklong process and includes looking at the patterns of behavior that your parents had before you were even born. If we either adopt the behaviors of our parents, we\u2019ll be loved and become just like them, and even if we rebel against those behaviors, there\u2019s attachment to the parents one way or another.\nThe first couple of days are really for understanding the patterns of the parents. They call it prosecution of the parents; get your anger out. The next couple of days are very deep compassion processes where you understand your parents and how come they are the way they are as best you can. They do this in a very brilliant way. The training culminates with a sense of self-forgiveness that\u2019s incredibly deep. Nothing, of course, is perfect for everyone, but it has done a tremendous amount of good. There are many ways to help yourself forgive the past and the Hoffman Process is certainly one of them.\nSC: What were the circumstances in which people make the choice to address their issues and say, \u201cI\u2019m done with this. I want to be done with this forever\u201d?\nJB: Why people want to be done with it is because they become so miserable. That\u2019s always the impetus. There are relatively few people who simply say \u201cwell, my life is pretty good and I have a sense that if I did all this work it would be even better.\u201d\nSC: Have you observed that people only change through adversity?\nJB: I think there\u2019s a tipping point for most people between the desire to wake up, to then be able to make a conscious choice, to engage in more conscious evolution of wellness and action in the world, and then to develop compassion toward other people. It\u2019s different for different people, so there\u2019s no way that I can generalize except that frequently serious illness is that tipping point for people.\nAnother thing that I started to notice when working at the hospital was the anatomy of change. For instance, let\u2019s say a woman just found out that she has uterine cancer or breast cancer or lung cancer, or whatever it might be. What was frequently said to me was, \u2018the day that I got my diagnosis I felt like I died right then and there. I just died.\u2019\nThat\u2019s actually true. That\u2019s what a change process really is. You begin by dying to who you were. You can never go back to the way your life was before because it\u2019s irretrievably broken. It\u2019s like the ground has opened up underneath you and swallowed you, like a trap door.\nThat\u2019s what a change process really is. You begin by dying to who you were. You can never go back to the way your life was before because it\u2019s irretrievably broken. It\u2019s like the ground has opened up underneath you and swallowed you, like a trap door.\nThe second stage is a period of dwelling in that place between no longer and not yet. And that\u2019s been written about in many different traditions from the anthropological to the spiritual, like the Jews wandering in the wilderness for 40 years. Jesus cut it down to 40 days. He was very speedy after his temptation by the devil, before he returned from that liminal space completely transformed with something new to give to the family of humanity. The difficulty is making it through the liminal space. That time between no longer and not yet. Yes, a person may have the experience of death, but they haven\u2019t yet gotten to the point of rebirth.\nDuring that time of uncertainty, I\u2019ve noticed one of two things tend to happen. One of them is that a certain number of people simply give up hope and often give up on their medical treatment, or they become lackluster about paying attention to what they should be doing.\nPerhaps they are supposed to be exercising or they\u2019re supposed to be eating right, but they don\u2019t bother because they\u2019re depressed. That despair and depression really shortcuts what could be happening in terms of transformation. At best, it prolongs the process. At worst, it really blocks the process.\nThere are other people who really start to transform in that place of uncertainty. They start to do the things that maybe they\u2019ve known were important before, but are really important now like reaching out and looking for who truly are their allies. \u2018Who are my mentors? What can I learn?\u2019 And later in the process, they begin to mentor and help those they can help.\nThe study of people who are resilient is really a study of people who have a sense of how to survive that liminal space, that period of uncertainty. I think that\u2019s incredibly important.\nThe third phase of the change process is when you come back transformed and your life has really become more conscious and you\u2019ve developed the capacity to author your own unique gifts to other people. There has been an expansion of who you are as a human being, a kind of revelation of essence.\nSo, I used to give an anatomy of change lecture to all of my patients and to tell them it\u2019s like an initiatory thing. And, you know, when a boy in Africa undergoes an initiation, and he\u2019s taken from the mother\u2019s hut, it\u2019s really scary just like getting ill. And then for a year he has to wander in the wilderness and learn a whole other set of skills. And then he comes back with the manhood skills to take his place in a different way. Explained correctly, it can be more empowering when people think, \u2018I\u2019m an initiate in the rite of passage instead of the victim of some random horror.\u2019\nSC: What about personal expectations?\nJB: You know, the thing that comes up time and time and time again, and I always go over it because it\u2019s never old territory, is \u2018new age guilt\u2019. I have spent a greater part of my career trying to explain to people that yes, you are responsible for your health to a large degree, to the degree that you eat right, that you exercise, that you learn to manage your emotions, and all of that. But in spite of the absolute best that you do, people get sick anyhow, and often we don\u2019t know the reason.\nUnfortunately, there are people who want to oversimplify illness by saying, \u2018You were thinking wrong. You attracted it to yourself.\u2019 Those kinds of comments picked up again after The Secret came out. There is a middle ground.\nUnfortunately, there are people who want to oversimplify illness by saying, \u2018You were thinking wrong. You attracted it to yourself.\u2019 Those kinds of comments picked up again after The Secret came out.\nBack in 1989 there was a conference on holistic health in medicine in Bangalore, India, in which Mother Theresa and the Dalai Lama were co-sponsors. During the event a woman from the West and a man from an Eastern country were asked to sit with His Holiness and talk about health and healing.\nI got to be the woman from the West, and there was a wonderful psychiatrist from India who was the man from the East. We were charged with asking questions of His Holiness that we thought were very, very important to ask. The first question I asked him was the new-age guilt question:\n\u201cSo many of my patients feel guilty because they believe that they have caused their illness through their thinking. What is your perspective? What is the most conscious, enlightened thing I could tell them?\u201d\nEssentially what he said was that they should not be so simpleminded, and realize that there are many different routes. \u201cThere are genetic routes, there are environmental routes, there are emotional routes, there are, you know, relational routes.\u201d He went on simply naming them and stating that a person can\u2019t oversimplify to say that you created your own illness without understanding context.\nIt\u2019s the journey of maturation as a human being \u2013 understanding the breadth of that context, and how we cooperate in enriching and purifying the various contexts of which we\u2019re a part. That begins to happen through childhood healing and peeling away some of that mask that we have, those patterns we adopted so that we could stay safe in our family of origin, and then reconnecting with our own self.\nSC: What are some of the other ways people tend to block achieving wellness?\nJB: When somebody comes to see me who is significantly ill, I ask them if they have a theory about why they\u2019re ill. What surprised me was how many people will say \u201cI must have done something to offend God.\u201d When we\u2019re really stressed and frightened we will regress to the most infantile of childhood beliefs. That was the most popular belief as to why people thought they were sick.\nI ask them if they have a theory about why they\u2019re ill. What surprised me was how many people will say \u201cI must have done something to offend God.\u201d\nThen the next most popular belief was I brought it upon myself with my thinking. And then a very small minority, maybe 10%, would say that it\u2019s a mystery, \u201cI may never know that, so I\u2019m just going to concentrate on what it takes to get better.\u201d\nWe recreate the image of God with the image of our parents and all of that comes up when people are facing an illness and all of these old religious beliefs come up. Many patients will say \u2018I\u2019m not religious, I\u2019m spiritual,\u2019 but they hadn\u2019t really contemplated deeply what their beliefs actually were. Those old thoughts came back and grabbed them.\nI\u2019ve come to realize that much of the work I have done I call soul care because people needed a place to talk about meaning. What does this mean? What do I believe? It\u2019s an important process to help one engage their own healing journey.\nFor more information about Joan Borysenko, go to www.joanborysenko.com\nFor more information about ACE go to *http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/ace/ and http://www.acestudy.org/\nSource: Super Consicousness\n\u2190 Why friendships are so important: The forgotten key to your health & longevity?\nKomen muggen nu eigenlijk wel of niet op licht af? \u2192\nDe 14 vaakst voorkomende tekenen van glutenintolerantie\n27 februari 2017 Ans Reacties uitgeschakeld voor De 14 vaakst voorkomende tekenen van glutenintolerantie\n\u2018Lavendel helpt net zo goed als valium\u2019\nAustralian aboriginals know the healing power of stillness\n13 september 2017 Ans Reacties uitgeschakeld voor Australian aboriginals know the healing power of stillness",

        "raw_content": "January 13, 2019 Posted by Gold IRAGold, gold ira, ira, retirement\nUncovering trustworthy companies that offer gold IRA\u2019s may seem complicated. Since there are a great number of businesses that offer gold IRAs, it can be challenging to comprehend the difference between an honest company versus a scam. When a person\u2019s financial future is at stake, it is important to know how to choose a solid company. It is essential to work with an experienced gold IRA custodian to gain success and enjoy a comfortable retirement. It is vital to research a reputable company that will be helpful. Here are certain attributes that a person should look for along the way.\nThe Better Business Bureau was established to help consumers by providing useful information about various businesses. It is used as a benchmark to judge the services that are offered by different companies. The BBB examines a number of organizations and assigns a ranking to each one. This will be based on history, number of complaints, and other items. It will be extremely helpful when comparing different gold IRA companies. The BBB will give a trusted AAA rating of each company. A five star rating and preferred membership will help to determine the best gold IRA company that should be chosen.\nThere are a great number of gold IRA companies, so it is essential to choose the best company. It is important to be satisfied with all services that are offered. To become satisfied, a person will normally want to receive the gold as fast as possible. A solid company will offer a delivery guarantee that acts as a promise. A customer can expect to receive the gold IRA within a specified period of time. Under certain circumstances, a trustworthy company will deliver in under one week. This is much better than the companies who take up to a month to deliver the gold. When a company makes a guarantee of this kind and fulfills the promise, it will show that the company is fair and trustworthy.\nProvide Helpful Information\nInvesting in any retirement plan will require a person to learn all types of information that will affect future assets.\nIt is always wise for a customer to be educated about gold IRA accounts before becoming an investor. A shady company will keep a consumer in the dark about the gold industry. On the other hand, a trustworthy company will provide useful information to help a consumer make a smart decision. In place of selling any gold IRA plan, this type of company will take time to sell a plan that meets individual needs. Not every gold IRA plan will work well for all customers. Good companies will supply educational articles, charts, or gold investment kits to keep a customer informed and educated.\n\u2190 401k Investing: How Much is that ETF in \u201cthe Window\u201d?\nBullion Vault \u2013 How To Buy Gold \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Home id:7 May and June Phoenix Weather\nMay and June Phoenix Weather\nPhoenix Arizona is the hottest and sunniest city in the United States, and May and June are when the transition from pleasantly warm to blazing hot takes places. The average high temperature increases 18 degrees from May 1st to the June 30th, up to an average of 106 degrees. That\u2019s just the average; temperatures in 110s and even 120s are possible! Of course it\u2019s a \u201cdry heat\u201d, and that does make a difference in the way you will be able to handle this incredible heat. Indeed most locals will tell you it\u2019s not really hot until it gets up above 105 or so.\nMay Phoenix Weather\nThe highest recorded temperature for Phoenix for the past 73 years in May was 113 degrees Fahrenheit, most recently measured on May 28, 1984, and the standard high is 94.

        "raw_content": "access_time August 25, 2015 at 2:37 AM\tin Features by Jeffrey Harris\nResident Evil 2 Remake: Capcom\u2019s Smartest Move in Years\nSo, it is finally official. Capcom recently confirmed the announcement of the development of a Resident Evil 2 Remake project. After years of pleas from fans, and even a fan-made remake, Capcom is finally moving forward with a full, official remake of the classic franchise installment. Capcom\u2019s hesitant attitude toward moving forward with a Resident Evil remake is understandable. Why? Unlike the original Resident Evil game, there was not a recent post-2000 update of Resident Evil 2 to upgrade. The Gamecube version of Resident Evil 2 was nothing more than a port of the original title. The situation is not like the remake of the first game released on the same console. In other words, Capcom would have to spend and invest significantly more money into a modern update of Resident Evil 2. The Resident Evil 2 Remake will require a lot more research and development than the high-definition remastering required for the Gamecube Resident Evil remake that was recently released for current and last-gen consoles in January 2015. However, now that the project is greenlit, this is easily Capcom\u2019s best and smartest move in years.\nThe most obvious reason why this was a good move for Capcom is the sales potential for a modern update of Resident Evil 2. The HD Resident Evil remake has already sold over one million copies. In addition, the game was hailed as the fastest selling digital in Capcom\u2019s history (via Gamespot). This proved that there was untapped financial potential for releasing next-gen, upgraded remasters of the classic Resident Evil series installments on the next-gen consoles. The sales for the Resident Evil remaster proved that there was potential and fan support in going back to the classic Resident Evil catalog. Fans would turn out and buy the classic games with updated graphics and in a HD format. Capcom continuing on that path depended directly on the sales of the Resident Evil remaster. The sales figures surpassed expectations so Capcom would move forward with Resident Evil 0. Of course, that would be an easier game to tackle as a remaster since it was also released for the Gamecube in 2002.\nBefore 2015, the Resident Evil franchise was essentially in tatters. Like it or not, Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6 were not as well received as previous installments. The games did not meet expectations in terms of reviews or sales. So, instead of moving forward with the franchise\u2019s main line of games, Capcom opted to search through its past. It might be sad to consider the fact that players would rather look at the older games than the newer ones, but those games are classics for a reason. What Resident Evil needs right now, as a franchise, is rejuvenation. Offering fresh coats of paints to classic, beloved installments of the franchise could give the franchise the shot in the arm it needs. It started with the Resident Evil remaster, and the Resident Evil 2 Remake is the next part of that. If Capcom pulls off the Resident Evil 2 Remake with flying colors, that could really put the franchise back on track in many ways.\nWhat is arguably most significant is that this announcement pleases the fans, and that is something Capcom really needs right now. It finally puts some momentum and fan approval back on their side. Fans essentially demanded this Resident Evil 2 Remake, and Capcom acknowledged those desires. In short, Capcom is getting some good PR for a change by developing this project. Besides Street Fighter V, it gives players something else to look forward to from the Capcom catalog in the coming years.\nIn short, the Resident Evil 2 Remake project will give Capcom an almost guaranteed win and hit, which have been in short supply as of late. In 2014, Capcom announced a sales drop of 51.3 percent in revenue and 39.9 percent in profits compared to 2013 (via Gamespot). What is worse? 2013 was already the company\u2019s least profitable year since 2013 (via Games Industry). Capcom has undeniably been struggling in recent years. When that is happening for a major game publisher, the company cannot afford too many missteps. The Resident Evil 2 Remake already has the support and excitement of players on its side. This project is pretty much a win-win for Capcom from every angle.\nSince Resident Evil 2 is a classic video game, it is important for Capcom to remember not to try and reinvent the wheel with this remake. Once again, the project will entail more than just upgrading the graphics, textures and screen presentation. Capcom might have to rebuild character models and even cut scenes from scratch. The voice-overs might be considered outdated and could possibly need to be re-recorded. Changes such as those are understandable. However, in making changes, Capcom should not try to alter what made the original so special. Resident Evil 2 played like an amazing progression of the original. The Zapping System at the time was a revelation to experience. Capcom should not mess around with these basic building blocks, or even the controls. Sure, the option of a more streamlined control scheme similar to the Resident Evil update is fine. New skins, trophies and achievements are also fine. However, that is where the tinkering should end. In remaking Resident Evil 2, I want every room, every boss battle and all the major story beats to remain identical to the original.\nMore details for the Resident Evil 2 will be revealed later on. The experience of getting to experience the true vision of survival horror yet again will be a sight to behold.",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: hedy lamarr: an incredible life\nReview: Hedy Lamarr: An Incredible Life\nI remember the first time I fell in love with a screen icon. It seems as though red-blooded male I knew, knew that they loved women from that first sight. One of my friends from work talked about this very instance he has with all three of his sons. They were watching a trailer for the Justice League movie and the moment they saw Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, they all had a big grin across their faces, as they all felt those proverbial butterflies about the same woman.\nMy first onscreen crush was Brooke Shields. I remember seeing her in the Blue Lagoon and being \u201csmitten\u201d with those sea blue eyes. Since then, I had a few, and even some from yesteryear, one of them being Hedy Lamarr. I remember the first time I saw her, it was in Samson and Delilah. She played the titular female protagonist and she captivated my attention the whole film. So, when I heard that there was a graphic biography of the film icon, Hedy Lamarr: An Incredible Life, I was definitely interested.\nWe first meet Hedy, when she was 5 years old, growing up in Vienna, as her father becomes the person who stoked her interest in understanding how everything works, including cars and lights, which will start a lifelong interest in inventions. As she became a teenager, soon her interests were enthralled by the movies, and soon she pursued a career in movies, working behind the scenes, until a casting director saw her, and put her in her first film. Unfortunately, her career would be derailed, as she gets herself in an unhappy marriage, the death of her father, and growing presence of the Nazi regime in Austria, pushes her to pursue her dreams in Hollywood. As her star brightens, she begins to catch the attention of many Hollywood luminaries, everyone from Howard Hughes to Errol Flynn, while the situation in Austria, begins to get more dangerous, she works to get her mother with her in America. By book\u2019s end, one of her inventions, the wireless network, becomes a trailblazing idea, which has changed the world, and has made he world take notice that she was more than the most beautiful woman in the world, but also one of the smartest people on the globe.\nOverall, Hedy Lamarr is the true personification of \u201cbeauty and brains,\u201d as she not only marveled the world with her presence but changed the world with her mind. The story by William Roy is riveting, evenly paced, and articulate. The art by Sylvain Dorange is ethereal and vivid. Altogether, a life story that shows despite how much people underestimate you you are more than the sum of your parts.\nStory: William Roy Art: Sylvain Dorange\nHedy Lamarr was born Hedwig Eva Marie Kiesler on November 9, 1914. To her fans, Hedy Lamarr was a star of the silver screen; to those who knew her, she was a genius. She fashioned designs to revolutionize the planes built by Howard Hughes. In the dead of night, she tinkered with her blueprints and experiments. And when World War II began, Hedy left her superstar persona behind and claimed the patent for a strange device. One that manipulated sound, created an unbreakable code and confounded the Nazi regime, giving the allies the advantage they needed to claim victory. Scientists called it \u201cSpread Spectrum\u201d technology. The military called it a \u201csecret communication system.\u201d Today, we call it a \u201ccell phone,\u201d \u201cWi-Fi\u201d and a little thing called the \u201cInternet.\u201d\nThis week, timed to Hedy Lamarr\u2019s birthday, the acclaimed graphic novel publisher Humanoids is publishing the biography Hedy Lamarr: An Incredible Life by writer William Roy and artist Sylvain Dorange.\nHumanoids has released an excerpt and a trailer to celebrate the book\u2019s publication.",

A year ago, V\u00e9ronique Lusson created the association she is in leading, \u201cAmiens comme Amie\u201d, which is part of the national network of Greeters. Eleven of us embarked on the adventure. A few preparatory \u201cblank\u201d greets, a few meals around a table, allowed the group to get to know each other and instill the essential conviviality.\nGreeters\u2019 words: \u201cI am always listening to what is happening in the city of Amiens. I learned that on June 2, 2018, our city received the label of L\u2019ARBRE LE PLUS REMARQUABLE DE FRANCE for the chestnut tree of the square St Denis planted around 1860\u201d.\n1st birthday to be discovered Amiens with a resident\nIt was on Friday, November 10, 2017 when the association was officially launched in the presence of Christian Ragil, President of the Federation France Greeters; Jonathan Huffstutler, our godfather and himself \u201cGreeters\u201d in Rueil-Malmaison, who had not had the opportunity to join us, accompanied us by the heart. After introducing themselves, everyone was then able to sign the Charter, and was given a badge in front of an invited audience, including the Director of the Amiens Metropolitan Tourist Office, with whom we have excellent relations.\nGreeters d\u2019Amiens: new projects\nA year later and about thirty Greets, to discover Amiens, including several in English, the Greeters d\u2019Amiens team had some departures, but above all we saw the arrival of new passionate inhabitants. Our monthly meetings, at each other\u2019s homes, have united us and allowed us to enrich and improve our greets along the way. Three new greeters have joined us and were officially inducted on Friday, November 30, 2018.\nProjects are announced: you will soon be able to find us on a Facebook page! We will tell you about our greets and how we will continue to introduce you to Amiens through the eyes of a resident. As the city is the European Youth Capital of 2020, the Greeters are committed to \u2018Amiens for Youth\u2019 as of now. It is planned that we will get closer to the UPJV students who have recently arrived in Amiens and offer to accompany us to help them discover Amiens in a different way.\nDiscover Amiens with a resident or become a Greeters yourself?\nJoin us to discover Amiens in a different way, with your eye and your passions.\nLet's discover Amiens with a local !\nAlready a year of activity, and yet the kick-off meeting, in which I participated, seems so close to me.\nThe Federation\u2019s Steering Committee joins me in thanking you all, Greeters d\u2019Amiens and its surroundings.\nThank you for your involvement, your good humour and your passion for welcoming visitors and sharing \u201cyour\u201d city.\nAlso important for us: your pleasure in being grafted and in exchanging with others and other cultures.

        "raw_content": "For Ayo Alaba Idowu, chief executive officer, Glass House Entertainment, producers of The Legendary Show, a TV talk show that celebrate illustrious Nigerians, whose talents, personalities and career skills have imparted lives and contributed immensely in enhancing the culture, unity, economy and the entertainment image of Nigeria and beyond the shores of the country, was inspired by the need to reward the selfless services. In this interview with FUNSHO AKINWALE, during the shooting of the first episode in Lagos, he spoke on why the show debut on national television stations and MNET Africa, and the various categories.\nWhat inspired The Legendary Show?\nIt was the desire to meet a need gap. We thought that certain personalities should be remembered, celebrated and honoured because they have through their various industries, contributed immensely to nation building, national unity, culture preservation, talent and economic development. The Legendary Show is the platform we have created to meet that need. We felt that if we celebrated such people, we can get a lot more people to contribute even more and Africa will be a better place.\nWhy the various categories?\nThe Legendary Show is not just into celebrating legends; we are also into inspiring legends. The different categories were to create enough room for different generations especially the younger ones, so that they can be inspired. The transition from one legendary level to another is the fulfillment of the show.\nWhat defines each category?\nPerennial Legends: These are legends that are no longer with us but remains in our hearts forever. It was an incredible moment with the Rashidi Yekini and the DaGrin families on the show.\nAll-time Legends: These legends are not less than 30 years in their varying industries and have created or invented something that has been beneficial to others. It could be a line of business, thought or action that many people are now following. Such an invention must have created employment opportunities within and even outside his or her industry. The contribution of such legends must have been recognised by a minimum of three different international organisations beyond the shores of Africa. To be recognised as an All-time Legend, it means in generations coming, it will be difficult or impossible to talk about that specific industry without mentioning the name of such an All-time Legend. We believe it takes only an All-time Legend to have achieved this feat.\nToday\u2019s Legends: To be recognised as Today\u2019s Legend, such person must have spent at least 20 years in a specific industry and must have immensely impacted lives. He or she must have created noble paths that people strongly look up to. Such person must have covered grounds in his country, and must have got at least two international recognitions within Africa, by Africans in diaspora or from the rest of the world. It is however important to note that the categorization isn\u2019t basically all about the duration a legend has spent in his or her industry but about the level of contribution made within that duration. We can have someone who has been doing the same thing for more than 50 years but is recognized as Today\u2019s Legend.\nNext Generation Legends: This category is designed for the younger generations who have been in their chosen fields for a minimum of 10 years and have made remarkable impact. Such legends may have been recognized multiple times nationally and even internationally.\nKids\u2019 Legends: Just as the name implies, these are kids within the age of 0 to 13 who have done things that others are unable to do. Such kids must have got multiple recognitions within their country and beyond. Such kids, if they maintain consistency and do more, could in the future be recognised as Next Generation Legends and more.\nHow were you able to put together a great team to achieve the kind of excellence and quality The Legendary Show possesses?\nAs an entrepreneur, the biggest challenge is in putting the right team together. Setting out to do something that will make Africa\u2019s biggest television show meant that we had to ensure we got the best hands across all areas of production. Interestingly, I have been working with this same team over time. We have been working together and when a time like this comes, we just ride together.\nWhat makes The Legendary Show different from other shows?\nFirst, it has a set that has got usual creative depth. Again, it has a huge external value with a peculiarity that is first in the world. It is amazing when you see a legend stamp his own footprint on the show and has it carved out for him to take home in gold. What we do on the show is not make-believe; it is real. I am imagining the timeless value of such footprints. Many years from now, when these legends eventually pass on, each footprint will be that part of them that they leave behind asides the memories in our hearts. It is something the world will come together to look at because it goes beyond a physical relationship; each footprint will have a spiritual connection to its owner. This is the first time in the world this has been done.\nAs the producer of the show, what were your major challenges?\nRunning away from mediocrity was the first major challenge. I have a philosophy that states, \u201cIf it\u2019s not excellent, then it\u2019s not good.\u201d So I had to ensure that everyone on the team was driven towards achieving excellence. Another challenge is the finance; a show like The Legendary Show is a huge project that we had set out to achieve without sponsors. In this part of the world, it is usually difficult for sponsors to picture and relate with a creative idea until you actually bring it out, especially when it\u2019s something you have not done before.\nWhat other contents have you produced?\nInterestingly, for television, we just started not too long ago. This year alone, Glass House Entertainment has done five television contents in six months which I both produced and directed. We have done Hope234, which is airing right now on one of the African Magic channels. We also did The Survivor Show, which is another very big content that Africa should watch out for in a couple of weeks. We started filming The Proposal Show last month. I must say, it is one of the most challenging and creative contents I have seen anywhere. I think Africa should really watch out for that too. We have five more television contents to film this year.",

        "raw_content": "Alstom will Supply the Signalling & Train Control of the New Tel Aviv Tramway Red Line Project\nAlstom and NTA (Metropolitan Mass Transit System LTD) signed a contract worth more than \u20ac90 million. The contract includes the development, manufacture, procurement, supply, installation, testing, commissioning, warranty and maintenance of the signalling and train control of the 90-vehicle for the new Tel Aviv Tramway Red Line project. The maintenance services cover a period of 10 years plus an option of 6 additional years and an option for supplying the signalling systems for an additional amount of 30 vehicles.\nThe Red Line will begin operations on October 2021, and is planned to service approx. 200,000 passengers every day. This 24-kilometer-long tramway line will pass through five municipalities (Bat Yam, Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Ramat Gan, Bnei Brak and Petach Tikva) and will include an 12-kilometre-long tunnel section to be built under the cities of Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan and Bnei Brak.The Red Line is one of the most heavily used traffic corridors in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, and the population density along the corridor is one of the highest in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area.\n\"I congratulate Alstom for joining the national project of building the mass transit system in greater Tel Aviv. This is a meaningful stepping stone on the way to the Red Line, which will be operational in four years,\" said NTA CEO, Yehuda Bar-On.\n\"We are delighted that NTA has placed its confidence in Alstom. Delivering high quality signalling systems is at the heart of Alstom strategy and Urbalis solution has already been in service for 15 years on around 80 metro lines throughout the world. This wide experience will be beneficial to our customer for the new Tel Aviv Tramway Red Line,\" said Didier Pfleger, Senior Vice-President for the Middle East and Africa at Alstom.\nThe contract includes the control of the trams that will travel along the Red Line, including coordination with the road traffic lights system, as well as transfer to automatic driving in the tunnels. Alstom will supply the widely proven and constantly upgraded Urbalis 400 CBTC system, a solution for urban transit operators aiming at maximizing performance, capacity and availability. Urbalis has a flexible and scalable Control System architecture, based on moving block principle, which safely optimizes the maximum of available rail network capacity, and allows mixed-mode operation such as Red Line combination of tunnels and interface to road traffic at grade.\nAs noted, the Red Line signalling Project in the Dan region is divided into two parts: construction and maintenance. The execution of the project is expected to last about 44 months, and will include the system and product design; procurement and production; equipment installation along the line and on the train cars, which are manufactured in China; testing and commissioning. The first stage of the system and product design and development, will begin next week, with accordance with the Notice to Proceed (NTP) received from NTA. The project team will include 40-50 Israelis who will work from Israel, and dozens more at Alstom's sites in France, Italy, Turkey, China, Spain and India.\nAlstom has been active in Israel for more than 25 years and is a partner in significant projects. Alstom has a solid and continuous presence in Israel, engaging with local companies and employing hundreds of workers.\nTransport of Hydrocarbons News in United Kingdom >>\nFirst Oil Flows from Hail Field Offshore Abu Dhabi\nTunnel Boring Machine, \u2018Wugeisha EXPO 2020\u2019 Starts Drilling\nChina Energy Investment Signs MOU for $83.7B in West Virginia Projects",

        "raw_content": "POSTS What is the Best Suunto Watch for Military?\nAre you after a reliable, durable, and supremely functional military watch?\nIf so, you\u2019ll be very interested to learn what the best Suunto watch for military uses has to offer. When you\u2019re out on expeditions, being able to use the right watch can become incredibly useful, and even lifesaving.\nThe Suunto Ambit2 is our top pick due to the number of reliable features that enhance your exploration experience.\nHowever, we\u2019ve also reviewed the Suunto Vector and Core model too. They may be more appropriate depending on the type of trips that you\u2019re planning on taking.\nAll of the three watches that we\u2019re about to take a look at below are fantastic for hunters and law enforcement, as well as those who simply love to travel.\nThey do come with various flaws which we\u2019ve made sure to cover. Therefore, you\u2019ll be left with a complete rundown of whether or not any of these watches are right for you.\n1 Top Pick: Suunto Ambit2\n1.2 The Not So Good\n2 2nd Pick: Suunto Vector\n3 3rd Pick: Suunto Core\nTop Pick: Suunto Ambit2\nThe Ambit2 model by Suunto impressed us by how many useful features it includes for anyone who enjoys outdoor adventures. You\u2019re able to accurately track your fitness statistics and locate your exact location with ease.\nThe GPS and navigation features that are built-into this watch are remarkably useful when it comes to being out in the wild.\nThere have been countless times where people struggle finding their way back when they\u2019re out in unfamiliar places. Well, the GPS system can provide you with your exact coordinates in an instant. This is a fantastic function that could save you in times of need.\nFurthermore, if you know that you\u2019re entering a new place, your navigation may be a little off. But you can rely on the Suunto Ambit2 to guide you through various routes. This can easily be done by utilizing Movescout and downloading routes onto the watch.\nThese routes are incredibly easy to follow and can save you a lot of time walking around aimlessly.\nOne of the benefits of exploring the outdoors is the positive impact it has on your health. If you were interested to know more about the number of calories burned, steps taken, and distance travelled, this military watch tracks all your data.\nThe information it provides you with is incredibly accurate and insightful.\nYou can even use the Movescout connection feature to download various workout plans too.\nA major downside that I\u2019ve noticed among some military watches is that they have poor displays.\nAs a result, it becomes difficult to read the watch in various conditions. When it comes to using this Suunto Ambit2, however, you can be sure to clearly read the display, no matter what environment you\u2019re in.\nThis is because it\u2019s equipped with a backlight which becomes handy in low light conditions. Moreover, you can alter the colour of the text and background to make it easier to read in bright sunlight settings.\nBeing able to rely on a solid battery life with military watches is a must. That\u2019s why I was glad to find that the Suunto Ambit2 can last anywhere between 16-50 hours without charging.\nThis range is so large because the more features you are using (such as the GPS) will drain the battery more.\nBut overall, customers have been happy with the longevity of the battery life.\nOne glaring flaw that this Suunto watch has involves comfort.\nUnfortunately, many customers have voiced their concerns surrounding how uncomfortable this watch feels to wear. The strap is the main cause for this.\nIt has been designed with an angle that\u2019s fairly sharp and it can feel especially uncomfortable for people who have smaller wrists.\n2nd Pick: Suunto Vector\nThe Suunto Vector is equipped with some great features that will come in handy on explorations. However, it\u2019s the runner up to the Ambit2 since it has a couple more flaws that are more noticeable.\nThe compass feature that comes with this watch is awesome.\nI liked how it allows you to change the decline level to provide you with more accurate details on where you are. As a result, it gives you a very precise reference point, which is particularly useful when it comes to being out in places that you\u2019re not familiar with.\nOverall, I found the display of the Suunto Vector was very easy to read at all times.\nRegardless of how intense the sunlight is, customers are pleased with how easily they can read the watch face. So, if you\u2019re out during the day, you can be sure to rely on this watch and utilize its features to your benefit.\nWhen you purchase this watch, Suunto also include a heart-rate monitor strap.\nThis is a great little add-on that enables you to track your fitness with supreme accuracy. Even if you\u2019re not working out, you can wear the strap to get a good idea of what your heart rate is as you go about your day outdoors.\nI liked how the watch provides you with the beats per minute as they happen too.\nIf you were interested in going swimming, you\u2019ll be glad to know that this watch has been made with waterproof materials.\nIt remains effectively waterproof with depths of up to 91 metres. This allows you to use the watch in versatile situations.\nQuiet Alarm\nThe most notable pitfall that I came across with this watch centres around the alarm.\nCustomers have been consistently mentioning how the sound of the alarm is too quiet. So, if you needed to be up early, I recommend using another device for a more reliable alarm. It\u2019s likely this one won\u2019t wake you up on time!\nInitially, the interface of this watch appears to be pretty complicated.\nThis is because of the way that they\u2019ve designed the navigation features and various modes. Therefore, it may take you some time to fully get used to the watch. So, it may be a good idea to purchase it ahead of any trips.\nIt will give you the time to become accustomed to how to access the different modes and features.\n3rd Pick: Suunto Core\nOne of the main reasons why the Suunto Core is the third choice in our review is because it lacks GPS features. Having said that, it\u2019s reliable and easy to use. Therefore, it would be a great option for the more casual adventurer.\nThe predictive-storm feature that comes with this watch is incredible.\nSuunto\u2019s Core military watch uses the built-in barometer to help predict storms. What\u2019s even more impressive is that it can notify you of storms two hours before they arrive in your location.\nThey call this feature the intelligent storm alarm. It works by picking up on a sudden decrease of air pressure over a period of a few hours.\nThis is especially useful for people hiking in mountains. It gives you warnings ahead of time so that you can focus on finding or building shelter for when the storm arrives.\nThe Suunto Core can be used underwater too. It has been manufactured with waterproof materials which provides you with a peace of mind in knowing that it\u2019s versatile.\nIt can remain resistant to damage from water for up to 30 metres.\nDisplay & Battery Life\nI was glad to find that the display was incredibly easy to read, no matter what lighting conditions you\u2019re in. You can be sure to rely on the watch at all times, night or day.\nFurthermore, I found the battery life to be impressive too. This also provides you with more reliability, which is crucial when you\u2019re out on expeditions.\nYou know that the battery life isn\u2019t going to die when you\u2019re out in the middle of a completely new environment.\nThe lack of GPS features may be a real downside for some people.\nIf you needed a watch that provides you with GPS functions, the Ambit2 and Vector models would be more suitable.\nHaving said that, if you don\u2019t use GPS systems to help you navigate, this may not be as big of a flaw.\nNow that you know more about what the each of these Suunto watches have to offer, you\u2019ll have a better idea of which one would suit you best.\nI recommend the Ambit2 as the best Suunto watch for military uses. It has the highest number of useful features that you can rely on it all conditions. The only negative side is that it may feel uncomfortable for some.\nThe Suunto Vector is another great choice. It has a precise compass, easy-to-read display and waterproof materials. However, the configuration can be tricky and will take some getting used to.\nWe included the Suunto Core as the third option. We were impressed with the storm-predictive feature, as well as the battery life, display, and water-resistant benefits. Although, the GPS may be a major let down for people who were hoping to use it on explorations.\nIf you\u2019re interested in using watches specifically for kayaking, take a look at our detailed review on the best Garmin watch for kayaking.\nTags:Fitness Technology, Military, Suunto, Watch",

        "raw_content": "INVERSE-DYNAMICS ADAPTIVE CONTROLLER\nDandina_Hulikunta_Rao_1990_sec.pdf (8.929Mb)\nDandina, Hulikunta Rao\nProgress in the advancement of control techniques has been mainly due to stringent design requirements, and the need to meet these requirements with less precise apriori knowledge of the plant under study. That is, the necessity to control a plant under increased uncertainty has been responsible for the evolution of control schemes. No general analytical solution for a system operating under uncertain conditions can be determined. This, therefore, necessitates the design of an adaptive controller with learning and adaptation features. In the existing learning methodologies, controlling a given plant follows the learning phase, that is, learning and controlling are two distinct phases. In order to unify the above two phases into one phase, 'learning-while-functioning', a different approach called Inverse-Dynamics Adaptive Controller (IDAC) has been proposed in this thesis. In this approach, the controller is made to be an inverse-dynamics model of the plant under study. The concept of the inverse-dynamics approach, and the necessary algorithm for this technique, are developed in this thesis. The results of extensive computer simulation studies are given which detail the performance of the IDAC. From these results, it is observed that a controller designed using the inverse-dynamics approach can learn and control a given plant. Also, learning and control are achieved simultaneously. At each learning trial the plant is directed towards a desired performance. The use of the IDAC for control purposes is rather a direct approach in contrast to the conventional techniques using optimization theory. Furthermore, the inverse-dynamics adaptive control scheme is independent of the type of plant to be controlled, however, in this thesis, only linear plants considered.\nWood, H. C.; Gupta, M. M.",

        "raw_content": "China\u2019s Intellectual Property System in the Process of Catch-up - with Patent in Focus\ndc.contributor Helsingin yliopisto, oikeustieteellinen tiedekunta fi\ndc.contributor Helsingfors universitet, juridiska fakulteten sv\ndc.contributor University of Helsinki, Faculty of Law en\ndc.contributor.author Zhao, Yajie fi\ndc.description.abstract This thesis explores the evolution of Chinese IP mechanisms during national development and transition to becoming a well-developed country. This subject is studied from the perspective of intellectual property (IP), with a special focus on the People\u2019s Republic of China since 1949. Internationally, the Chinese State, as a late-developing country, has adopted various mechanisms to narrow its gap in income and in technological capability in relation to developed countries. Meanwhile, internally, China itself is going through a crucial stage of social transition, and switching its economic model from labour-intensive mode to high-tech and innovation-intensive mode. During China\u2019s international \u2018catch-up\u2019 process, and its own social transition, the role of IP has constantly changed. This research on China\u2019s IP covers a period of the late Qing Dynasty until early June 2017, especially focusing on the period after 1949 and the modern Chinese IP system since its Reform and Opening-up Policy in 1979. The reviewed literature covers: (1) Chinese IP-related legislation and policies; (2) the domestic and international academic IP studies; (3) research reports from international organizations; (4) central reports from the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, other reports and speeches from the central government with a historical period start from 1933; and (5) IP-related annual reports and statistics from the State Intellectual Property Office and the various levels of the people\u2019s court. This thesis combines the narrative approach of Chinese IP studies, law in context, and historical perspective, and specifically studies the question: \u2018what is the IP system\u2019s role in the catch-up process of China?\u2019 The main research question is divided into sub questions: How does the development of the IP system and the national Science and Technology (S&T) integrate with each other (Chapter 2)? How is the IP system absorbed into Chinese society? The absorption of an IP system is explored via two aspects: one imperative aspect is the evolution of IP system from the perspective of enforcement (Chapter 3); and the other is how the IP system from the state level involved has impacted on the Chinese business players (Chapter 4). The manuscript concludes: Even though external pressures played an undeniable role during Chinese IP development, which can chase back to the 19th Century, China has been constantly advancing its IP system and its implementation mainly because of its internal and developmental needs since 1949 (Chapter 5). The outcome of this thesis summarises the three decades of Chinese modern IP development and its enforcement in the following way: an advanced legislation system that goes along with the international standards, an enforcement system with Chinese characteristics, and an administrative system for registration and examination focusing mainly on the domestic industries yet taking international practices as reference. China\u2019s adjustments of the IP policies are ultimately determined by the overall objectives for catching up and building an innovative country. China updates its IP system strictly in line with its level of national S&T development. Based on the internal and international conditions, it is a selected development model from China\u2019s side to emphasize IP reform and modernization. en\ndc.description.abstract Not available fi\ndc.relation.isformatof Helsinki: Unigrafia, 2018 fi\ndc.title China\u2019s Intellectual Property System in the Process of Catch-up - with Patent in Focus en\ndc.ths Bruun, Niklas fi\ndc.ths Oesch, Rainer fi\ndc.opn Li, Mingde fi\nChinasIn.pdf 1.310MB PDF Avaa tiedosto\nOikeustieteellinen tiedekunta [83]",

        "raw_content": "The Grief For My Lost Sister Has Made Me A Better Mom\nBy Jackie Boeheim\nI will never forget the sound of the doorbell ringing. I will never forget the police officer removing his hat to share the news. I will never forget the sight of my mother falling to her knees. I will never forget the accident that took my sister away those many years ago.\nI don\u2019t want to forget.\nMy sister was just 12 years old when she was in a tragic car accident. She was a cheerleader in the making, a friend to many, a little girl growing into a well-rounded teenager. This accident would reshape the lives of those who loved her.\nHer mother, father, stepmother, stepfather and six grandparents outlived her. It was a twisted reversal of the natural flow of life. It was a faith challenging cement roadblock for those ten parental figures.\nThe grief for my lost sister was young, innocent and confusing. It gave me childlike nightmares, awkward social skills and bewilderment on how to get through the upcoming days. It manipulated my childhood.\nYou see, I was a shy kid. Always living in her shadow, not in a bad way, but in an older sibling protecting young sibling way. This is where I felt safest, in the shadow of her rusty blonde hair and broad shoulders, she was my protector. If someone were to ask me a pressing question like, \u201cDo you want lemonade or apple juice?\u201d I would just gaze at my sister who would happily answer the question for me.\nWho was going to answer my questions now?\nI was young. There were days when I thought she\u2019d come home, the school hallways were dark and quiet and the funeral was confusing. Life was messy. My parents struggled, that\u2019s all I knew was that they were sad.\nHowever, the days went on. In fact, the years flew by. In that time we lost touch with my sister\u2019s friends and moved from the house filled with memories to one that would be a fresh start. My mom picked herself up and made an effort to give her two living daughters a great life. She tried.\nI was mute, I wouldn\u2019t speak to anyone unless they were in my immediate comfort circle. That was hard for my parents. My little sister lost her way to drugs. That was hard for my parents. My stepbrother battled with depression. That was hard for my parents. In their effort to give us a normal life, it would never be \u201cnormal\u201d not in the way we knew it. We were missing a family member and my parents put their grief aside to raise the rest of their children.\nI am now in my 30\u2019s and have children of my own. My grief has changed. My experience with death has changed. The moment I held my newborn son in the crook of my arms, I was in love. It was an automatic and non-complicated love. That first night home from the hospital, I rocked with him and softly wept. I wept for my mother who had to bury her oldest daughter, I had a new wave of grief for the death of my sister. It was no longer childlike and innocent, it was maternal and it was real. I was grieving all over again.\nI think of how my parents wiped their tears, stood up straight and cared for us. They took the time to get me therapy and involve me in a church youth group. I think about how they pursued help for my siblings who had lost themselves to their own respective battles. As a mother, would I be able to do this? Would I be strong enough to whole-heartedly be there for the rest of my family?\nI called my mother shortly after crying in the rocking chair that night. I told her how sorry I was for her loss, it may seem trivial now but I don\u2019t think I had ever comforted HER. I asked her how she did it, how she raised the rest of us, how she cared for us. It was simple, she said. There was no other choice. The death of her oldest daughter didn\u2019t take away her title as mother, it enhanced her title, it made her a stronger mother, and it made her an experienced mother.\nMy dad and step-mom immediately clung to their faith through those tragic years. They have beautiful souls and a deep understanding of life, death and the aftermath. They have instilled this in me and I know that with faith on my side, I can get through pretty much anything.\nThat night while I was weeping in the rocking chair, I had to make a decision. Was I going to be a mother who lived in fear of losing her children to unforeseen accidents? Or was I going to encourage them to live full lives with hearts of faith, wandering souls and belly-laughing moments?\nI don\u2019t know what tomorrow holds but I do know what my parents taught me. Their strength and wisdom has made me a stronger mother, I am thankful for the revelation I had as a new mother, I am thankful for the new mourning of my sister. I have had a mighty life of ups and downs, I have had a life of prayer and I believe that I have the wisdom to get this mother thing right.\nWhat do your tragedies (whether it\u2019s divorce, loss of job or family death) say about you? Have they defined you in a distressing way or have the magnified your heart in a positive light? Maybe we don\u2019t want to see it just yet, but there is a lesson in each hardship. As parents, lets make it a strong one. When my parents picked themselves up all those years ago to be strong for me, they had no idea I\u2019d be sitting here 20 years later, praising them for that moment.\nMotherhoodparentingsiblings\nJackie Boeheim\nJacqueline Leigh holds a BA in Journalism from Valdosta State University.

        "title": "Disruptive Innovation. Hmmm. | Designing History's Future",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 Andrew Delbanco and the Hogwarts Experience\nQuestioning Diversity in Higher Education \u2192\nClayton Christensen is a professor of business administration at the Harvard Business School. He has many accolades. His primary specialty is in the field of disruptive innovation. In his books Innovative University and Disrupting Class he defines disruptive innovation as when a product is introduced \u201cthat actually is not as good as what companies historically had been selling\u201d (Christensen, 2008). This process creates new consumers out of non-consumers and disrupts the hold traditional companies have on a particular industry. This process he claims results in innovation.\nInnovative University takes the history and current statuses of two universities and portrays them through the lens of disruptive innovation in an attempt to highlight successes, failures, and potential solutions to problems in the state and future of higher education. It should be noted that Clayton Christensen is by no means an unbiased observer. The first university that is discussed is Harvard, from which he has two advanced degrees and is a faculty member. The second is BYU-Idaho. Christensen has a bachelors degree from its sister school in Utah, and religious ties to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which owns and operates both schools.\nOne of the foundations of Christensen\u2019s argument is that most American universities have in one-way shape or form based themselves upon the model set out by Harvard and other prestigious universities. He refers to this as the \u201cUniversity DNA.\u201d Their emulation is not only imperfect but they lack the immense wealth required to sustain the model in any manifestation. Some fundamentals of this model are:\nUp or out tenure\nUndergrad and Graduate programs\nCompetitive sports programs (though Harvard themselves cut those programs)\nChristensen claims that this emulation leads to universities being overstretched and under-funded, focus on research as opposed to teaching, have a fundamental dissonance in their purpose, and make costly expenditures that are burdened by the student body.\nAs an example of an innovative university and a potential model for what higher education should try to emulate Christensen presents BYU-Idaho. At this university they have a \u201czero-growth\u201d policy. This doesn\u2019t mean that they aren\u2019t expanding their capacity for new students; it means they won\u2019t spend more money on infrastructure or faculty. The goal is to create a better learning experience for more students at a lower cost. BYU-Idaho does not have a graduate program. The focus of the faculty is on instruction not on research. There are a small number of majors. There is no nationally competitive athletics department. The university has a year-round schedule, and they have invested heavily in online courses.\nBYU-Idaho is less expensive than Harvard and has a more focused and technologically focused format. It makes good business sense. Does that mean that BYU-Idaho is a better learning institution?\nChristensen, an MBA graduate and professor regards higher education as a business. While in many cases that stance is a reality, if we view higher education as something that is fundamentally necessary to our society it is important to realize that its pursuit produces products that are less tangible than money. In Disrupting Class Christensen says that disruptive innovation is \u201ca positive force. It is the process by which an innovation transforms a market whose services or products are complicated and expensive into one where simplicity, convenience, accessibility, and affordability characterize the industry.\u201d Should education be simple? Should education be convenient and for whom? What are the products? The problem with the way Christensen conceptualizes education in general is that it is so much more complex then any analogy to business or industry. In Inside the Black Box of Classroom Practice, Larry Cuban proposes the idea that metrics are only one of four things that are needed to ensure a good education. The others are: willingness to learn, support at home, and available resources for students and teachers. Christensen\u2019s primary metric is money. According to his book BYU-Idaho has found a way to provide education to more students, at a low cost. That is great but how do you determine the quality of that education? On page 286 of Innovative University Christensen says: \u201cThe fully online offerings enjoyed an across-the-board cost advantage over traditional instruction. Many of the online adjunct faculty were working professionals or homemakers for whom the pleasure of teaching was as great a motivator as financial compensation.\u201d I read this as \u201cwe needed to save some money so we brought in some part timers who needed cash and paid them as little as we possibly could.\u201d In chapter 15 Christensen talks about a former president of BYU-Idaho named Bednar who \u201cinvited his colleagues to \u2018think about how we think\u2019 and to \u2018set goals so high that we cannot imagine achieving the results through our existing processes.\u2019 He cited the success of Sam Walton, whose Arkansas-based company, Wal-Mart, he had worked with for more than fifteen years as a business school professor. Walton met with derision when he initially proposed to double the industry standard of $50 in sales per square foot of retail space. But, Bednar reported, Wal-Mart had since achieved $300 per square foot and aspired to reach $1000.\u201d While the thought of enrolling in a university that bases its practices on those of Wal-Mart is incredibly scary, at least Wal-Mart has an amazing return policy. I wonder if that will transfer over to students who want their money back for worthless degrees?\nChristensen does make some great points. Money is a factor for all but the most elite schools (and even for them in some cases). We can\u2019t stand by tradition and expect change. Online courses are clearly the wave of the future. Focusing on quality is always better than focusing on growth. Still, most of his views on education seem rooted in business and capitalism. The goal of business is money. Whether a company is making hamburgers or laptops, the goal is money. McDonald\u2019s isn\u2019t successful because their hamburgers are amazing. Microsoft isn\u2019t successful because Windows is a flawless program that never-ever freezes and makes you want to break something. These companies are defined as successful because they make lots of money. We cannot compare education to business because they are fundamentally different in the way they should be approached and the outcomes we expect from them. We don\u2019t need a population of people who can say they are college graduates. We need a population who can say they know how to learn, how to think, what has come before them, and how they might make what comes after them better for everyone.\n1 Response to Disruptive Innovation.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Exploring Online: National Parks\n\u201cNow You See It\u201d: Cathy Davidson and the Gorilla in the Room \u2192\nKatie Salen is definitely on to something. As the executive director of the Institute of Play \u2013 a non-profit design studio that explores new ways of learning and undertakes a number of projects such as Quest Schools and GlassLab \u2013 and a game design professor at DePaul University, Salen is a pioneer in charting new ways of learning in the classroom.\nI want to focus on the Quest to Learn (Q2L) project because it is pertinent to what we discuss in class. According to the Q2L Report, the Q2L research and development document, Q2L is \u201ca sixth- to twelfth-grade small school in New York City that opened its doors to its first sixth grade class in the fall of 2009. The school was designed by the Institute of Play in partnership with New Visions for Public Schools, the largest education-reform organization in New York City dedicated to improving the quality of education children receive in New York City\u2019s public schools\u201d (p. xv). Without explaining all the nuances of Q2L, it utilizes a trimester schedule in which objectives and skills are learned through approximately ten week long discovery missions. After students complete the mission, which could consist of helping \u201cTroggles\u201d create new inventions or acting as a medical student and diagnosing illnesses, the students enter the intensive two week boss mission as a capstone of the entire trimester. Additionally, Q2L views schools as one of the many places in which learning occurs versus school being the only place where it occurs. Ten core practices underlie Q2L, including giving and receiving feedback, inventing solutions, practicing in context, and theorizing and testing, among others. The cherry on top of this project is that the students also satisfy state education standards.\nI am a fan of Salen and this project. I think her leadership role in exploring new ways of educating is bold and exciting. I believe in the learning principles she advocates including collaboration, team building, problem solving in complex places, forgiving environments, and utilizing different identities when learning, reachable challenges, and scaffolding instruction (providing information on a need to know basis). I believe that we need exemplars such as Q2L to showcase the best environment and practices for teaching. However, while reading about Salen and these projects I began to feel a slight resentment toward the project. After reading the design and more about Salen, I reflected on this feeling and attempted to figure out why. What follows is why I think I felt this way.\nTo me, Q2L seems necessary, but there was something foreign about it. As Salen said in a video about Q2L, it is really unusual, unique, and different. The reason for this is that the non-profit works hand in hand with the public school. What does this mean? It means that many of the resources in the form of teachers, curriculum developers, technology, etc. are subsidized by the non-profit. As I read through the research document more, I began to feel like a child watching Care Bears or Teletubbies in that I was becoming immersed in a far-off world to which there was no bridge. I do not mean this disrespectfully. I am a proponent of creating the most ideal situations possible, and I am an idealist to a fault myself. But in creating such an environment, I felt myself harboring my feelings as I continued to ask myself, \u201cHow will they implement all these things without the same resources?\u201d\nI wondered how everyone that was not fortunate enough to have the same types of resources or time (such as the 80 minuets per day instructors had for professional development) could effectively utilize the same curriculum. To be fair, the Q2L website does have four documents to use in implementing Q2L practices. But the fact remains that not all schools have the same resources available. For instance, Q2L sees school as one place of learning, but there is staff available to link it to other learning spaces. Many schools do not have this ability, and many students do not have home lives that support learning or mentoring.\nI understand this critique may be short sighted. Essentially, I\u2019m comparing the ideal environment with the most supporting factors to the least ideal environment with almost no supporting factors. I think that starting more toward the middle of the spectrum in creating curriculum would be more realistic. In this way, the design would account for navigating more state requirements and a lack of resources. I understand the \u201cso what?\u201d question regarding Q2L, but I\u2019m left asking \u201cnow what?\u201d\nI believe that the negative feelings I have may result from some of the small town Texas in me. I imagine some of the teachers I had resenting this program due to a feeling of their circumstances not being understood. If they were to be presented something like this, I imagine many of them retorting that they have to be at school at 7 am and have duties that keep them there until 4:30 pm, with little time to themselves outside of a 45 minute off period. I also imagine them citing the fact that they use computers over 10 years old. I can see them asserting that there are not enough funds to equip students with the technology to enable them to complete missions and boss levels as described as well.\nAfter saying all this, I am compelled to restate that I like what Q2L seeks to do. The project is setting standards for learning in new ways. My critique is that I fail to see how this can be realistically implemented. There is a real possibility that I did not scour enough sources to realize this is happening or that others are doing this as I type. If this is not the case, however, perhaps this could be the next step for the project. Perhaps using that manpower to navigate not so ideal situations could prove fruitful and be something applicable to schools with little to no modification.\n1 Response to Quest 2 Learn and Practicality\nDominic \u2014 I totally agree. I kept thinking about inequities of access and resources while I was reading about Salen, and while she mentions it from time to time, it doesn\u2019t seem to be a central concern. And if I can make some blanket judgements here, I did notice that all the teachers at Q2L seem to be pretty young and hip\u2026 I also wondered how this would go over with a different generation of teachers. It\u2019s exciting stuff, but how feasible is it for your typical school? I think that\u2019s also related to the question of what this would look like in a university setting, when we\u2019re not talking about intimate, nicely integrated classes. Hopefully this will come up in class!",

        "raw_content": "Taking care of a loved one is not always easy. One strategy that makes it easier to keep things on track is to keep a journal. Don\u2019t worry about sentence structure or other things. Write about what you are feeling and what you think matters most. At the end of the week, you\u2019ll find that this approach really benefits your emotional wellbeing and abilities as a caregiver. By making a point to write in the journal every day, Conway home caregivers will reap the advantages of this important tool.\nAn Outlet for Your Emotions\nThere are times when you seem to be at your wit\u2019s end. The stress of taking care of an elderly loved one can be significant even when things are going well. You need a way to get those feelings out, but there is only so much you can say to friends or family members. When you keep a journal, you can put all of those emotions into words only you can read. Having this outlet makes it easier for you to get through a rough day because you can vent your feelings in a safe, judgment-free zone.\nA Personal Assessment Tool\nThe entries in your journal allow you to evaluate your actions throughout the day. Did you do something that seemed to please your loved one more than usual? Was there something about the day that you will want to manage differently the next time? Writing down your impressions can help you get a better grasp of what\u2019s working well for your loved one and what can be improved upon.\nTracking Changes in Your Loved One\u2019s Condition\nRecord the day-to-day shifts in your loved one\u2019s health.

        "raw_content": "Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) is a NASA Explorers program Solar and space exploration mission to study matter comprising energetic particles from the solar wind, the interplanetary medium, and other sources.\nReal-time data from ACE is used by the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center to improve forecasts and warnings of solar storms.[1] The ACE robotic spacecraft was launched August 25, 1997, and entered a Lissajous orbit close to the L1 Lagrangian point (which lies between the Sun and the Earth at a distance of some 1.5 million km from the latter) on December 12, 1997.[2] The spacecraft is currently operating at that orbit. Because ACE is in a non-Keplerian orbit, and has regular station-keeping maneuvers, the orbital parameters in the adjacent information box are only approximate.\nAs of 2019, the spacecraft is still in generally good condition, and is projected to have enough propellant to maintain its orbit until 2024.[3] NASA Goddard Space Flight Center managed the development and integration of the ACE spacecraft.[4]\nAn artist's concept of ACE\nwww.srl.caltech.edu/ACE/\n5 years planned\nElapsed: 21 years, 5 months and 20 days\n444 W End-of-Life (5 years)\nCape Canaveral LC-17A\nL1 Lissajous\n148,100,000 kilometers (92,000,000 mi)\n145,700,000 kilometres (90,500,000 mi)\nACE in orbit around the Sun\u2013Earth L1 point\nACE observations allow the investigation of a wide range of fundamental problems in the following four major areas:[5]\nElemental and isotopic composition of matter\nA major objective is the accurate and comprehensive determination of the elemental and isotopic composition of the various samples of \u201csource material\u201d from which nuclei are accelerated. These observations have been used to:\nGenerate a set of solar isotopic abundances based on direct sampling of solar material.\nDetermine the coronal elemental and isotopic composition with greatly improved accuracy.\nEstablish the pattern of isotopic differences between galactic cosmic ray and solar system matter.\nMeasure the elemental and isotopic abundances of interstellar and interplanetary \u201cpick\u2013up ions\u201d.\nDetermine the isotopic composition of the \u201canomalous cosmic ray component\u201d, which represents a sample of the local interstellar medium.\nOrigin of the elements and subsequent evolutionary processing\nIsotopic \u201canomalies\u201d in meteorites indicate that the solar system was not homogeneous when formed. Similarly, the Galaxy is neither uniform in space nor constant in time due to continuous stellar nucleosynthesis. ACE measurements have been used to:\nSearch for differences between the isotopic composition of solar and meteoritic material.\nDetermine the contributions of solar\u2013wind and solar energetic particles to lunar and meteoritic material, and to planetary atmospheres and magnetospheres.\nDetermine the dominant nucleosynthetic processes that contribute to cosmic ray source material.\nDetermine whether cosmic rays are a sample of freshly synthesized material (e.g., from supernovae) or of the contemporary interstellar medium.\nSearch for isotopic patterns in solar and Galactic material as a test of galactic evolution models.\nFormation of the solar corona and acceleration of the solar wind\nSolar energetic particle, solar wind, and spectroscopic observations show that the elemental composition of the corona is differentiated from that of the photosphere, although the processes by which this occurs, and by which the solar wind is subsequently accelerated, are poorly understood. The detailed composition and charge\u2013state data provided by ACE are used to:\nIsolate the dominant coronal formation processes by comparing a broad range of coronal and photospheric abundances.\nStudy plasma conditions at the source of solar wind and solar energetic particles by measuring and comparing the charge states of these two populations.\nStudy solar wind acceleration processes and any charge or mass\u2013dependent fractionation in various types of solar wind flows.\nParticle acceleration and transport in nature\nParticle acceleration is ubiquitous in nature and understanding its nature is one of the fundamental problems of space plasma astrophysics. The unique data set obtained by ACE measurements have been used to:\nMake direct measurements of charge and/or mass\u2013dependent fractionation during solar energetic particle and interplanetary acceleration events.\nConstrain solar flare, coronal shock, and interplanetary shock acceleration models with charge, mass, and spectral data spanning up to five decades in energy.\nTest theoretical models for 3He\u2013rich flares and solar \u03b3\u2013ray events.\nCosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS)\nThe Cosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer covers the highest decade of the Advanced Composition Explorer\u2019s energy interval, from 50 to 500 MeV/nucleon, with isotopic resolution for elements from Z \u2248 2 to 30. The nuclei detected in this energy interval are predominantly cosmic rays originating in our Galaxy. This sample of galactic matter investigates the nucleosynthesis of the parent material, as well as fractionation, acceleration, and transport processes that these particles undergo in the Galaxy and in the interplanetary medium. Charge and mass identification with CRIS is based on multiple measurements of dE/dx and total energy in stacks of silicon detectors, and trajectory measurements in a scintillating optical fiber trajectory (SOFT) hodoscope. The instrument has a geometrical factor of 250 cm2 sr for isotope measurements. [6]\nSolar Isotope Spectrometer (SIS)\nThe Solar Isotope Spectrometer (SIS) provides high resolution measurements of the isotopic composition of energetic nuclei from He to Zn (Z = 2 to 30) over the energy range from ~10 to ~100 MeV/nucleon. During large solar events SIS measures the isotopic abundances of solar energetic particles to determine directly the composition of the solar corona and to study particle acceleration processes. During solar quiet times SIS measures the isotopes of low-energy cosmic rays from the Galaxy and isotopes of the anomalous cosmic ray component, which originates in the nearby interstellar medium. SIS has two telescopes composed of silicon solid-state detectors that provide measurements of the nuclear charge, mass, and kinetic energy of incident nuclei. Within each telescope, particle trajectories are measured with a pair of two-dimensional silicon strip detectors instrumented with custom very-large- scale integrated (VLSI) electronics to provide both position and energy-loss measurements. SIS was especially designed to achieve excellent mass resolution under the extreme, high flux conditions encountered in large solar particle events. It provides a geometry factor of 40 cm2 sr, significantly greater than earlier solar particle isotope spectrometers. [7]\nUltra Low Energy Isotope Spectrometer (ULEIS)\nThe Ultra Low Energy Isotope Spectrometer (ULEIS) on the ACE spacecraft is an ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometer that measures particle composition and energy spectra of elements He\u2013Ni with energies from ~45 keV/nucleon to a few MeV/nucleon. ULEIS investigates particles accelerated in solar energetic particle events, interplanetary shocks, and at the solar wind termination shock. By determining energy spectra, mass composition, and their temporal variations in conjunction with other ACE instruments, ULEIS greatly improves our knowledge of solar abundances, as well as other reservoirs such as the local interstellar medium. ULEIS combines the high sensitivity required to measure low particle fluxes, along with the capability to operate in the largest solar particle or interplanetary shock events. In addition to detailed information for individual ions, ULEIS features a wide range of count rates for different ions and energies that allows accurate determination of particle fluxes and anisotropies over short (few minutes) time scales. [8]\nSolar Energetic Particle Ionic Charge Analyzer (SEPICA)\nThe Solar Energetic Particle Ionic Charge Analyzer (SEPICA) was the instrument on the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) that determined the ionic charge states of solar and interplanetary energetic particles in the energy range from \u22480.2 MeV nucl-1 to \u22485 MeV charge-1. The charge state of energetic ions contains key information to unravel source temperatures, acceleration, fractionation and transport processes for these particle populations. SEPICA had the ability to resolve individual charge states with a substantially larger geometric factor than its predecessor ULEZEQ on ISEE-1 and -3, on which SEPICA was based. To achieve these two requirements at the same time, SEPICA was composed of one high-charge resolution sensor section and two low- charge resolution, but large geometric factor sections.[9]\nAs of 2008, this instrument is no longer functioning due to failed gas valves.[3]\nSolar Wind Ions Mass Spectrometer (SWIMS) and Solar Wind Ion Composition Spectrometer (SWICS)\nThe Solar Wind Ion Composition Spectrometer (SWICS) and the Solar Wind Ions Mass Spectrometer (SWIMS) on ACE are instruments optimized for measurements of the chemical and isotopic composition of solar and interstellar matter. SWICS determined uniquely the chemical and ionic-charge composition of the solar wind, the thermal and mean speeds of all major solar wind ions from H through Fe at all solar wind speeds above 300 km s\u22121 (protons) and 170 km s\u22121 (Fe+16), and resolved H and He isotopes of both solar and interstellar sources. SWICS also measured the distribution functions of both the interstellar cloud and dust cloud pickup ions up to energies of 100 keV e\u22121. SWIMS measures the chemical, isotopic and charge state composition of the solar wind for every element between He and Ni. Each of the two instruments are time-of-flight mass spectrometers and use electrostatic analysis followed by the time-of-flight and, as required, an energy measurement.[10][11]\nOn 23 August 2011, the SWICS time-of-flight electronics experienced an age- and radiation-induced hardware anomaly that increased the level of background in the composition data. To mitigate the effects of this background, the model for identifying ions in the data was adjusted to take advantage of only the ion energy-per-charge as measured by the electrostatic analyzer, and the ion energy as measured by solid state detectors. This has allowed SWICS to continue to deliver a subset of the data products that were provided to the public prior to the hardware anomaly, including ion charge state ratios of oxygen and carbon, and measurements of solar wind iron. The measurements of proton density, speed, and thermal speed by SWICS were not affected by this anomaly and continue to the present day.[3]\nElectron, Proton, and Alpha-particle Monitor (EPAM)\nThe Electron, Proton, and Alpha Monitor (EPAM) instrument on the ACE spacecraft is designed to measure a broad range of energetic particles over nearly the full unit-sphere at high time resolution. Such measurements of ions and electrons in the range of a few tens of keV to several MeV are essential to understand the dynamics of solar flares, co-rotating interaction regions (CIR\u2019s), interplanetary shock acceleration, and upstream terrestrial events. The large dynamic range of EPAM extends from about 50 keV to 5 MeV for ions, and 40 keV to about 350 keV for electrons. To complement its electron and ion measurements, EPAM is also equipped with a Composition Aperture (CA) which unambiguously identifies ion species reported as species group rates and/or individual pulse-height events. The instrument achieves its large spatial coverage through five telescopes oriented at various angles to the spacecraft spin axis. The low-energy particle measurements, obtained as time resolutions between 1.5 and 24 s, and the ability of the instrument to observe particle anisotropies in three dimensions make EPAM an excellent resource to provide the interplanetary context for studies using other instruments on the ACE spacecraft. [12]\nSolar Wind Electron, Proton and Alpha Monitor (SWEPAM)\nThe Solar Wind Electron Proton Alpha Monitor (SWEPAM) experiment provides the bulk solar wind observations for the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE). These observations provide the context for elemental and isotopic composition measurements made on ACE as well as allowing the direct examination of numerous solar wind phenomena such as coronal mass ejection, interplanetary shocks, and solar wind fine structure, with advanced, 3-D plasma instrumentation. They also provide an ideal data set for both heliospheric and magnetospheric multi-spacecraft studies where they can be used in conjunction with other, simultaneous observations from spacecraft such as Ulysses. The SWEPAM observations are made simultaneously with independent electron (SWEPAM-e) and ion (SWEPAM-i) instruments. In order to save costs for the ACE project, SWEPAM-e and SWEPAM-i are the recycled flight spares from the joint NASA/ESA Ulysses mission. Both instruments had selective refurbishment, modification, and modernization required to meet the ACE mission and spacecraft requirements. Both incorporate electrostatic analyzers whose fan-shaped fields of view sweep out all pertinent look directions as the spacecraft spins. [13]\nThe magnetic field experiment on ACE provides continuous measurements of the local magnetic field in the interplanetary medium. These measurements are essential in the interpretation of simultaneous ACE observations of energetic and thermal particles distributions. The experiment consists of a pair of twin, boom- mounted, triaxial fluxgate sensors which are located 165 inches (=4.19 m) from the center of the spacecraft on opposing solar panels. The two triaxial sensors provide a balanced, fully redundant vector instrument and permit some enhanced assessment of the spacecraft's magnetic field. [14]\nACE Real Time Solar Wind (RTSW)\nThe Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) RTSW system is continuously monitoring the solar wind and producing warnings of impending major geomagnetic activity, up to one hour in advance. Warnings and alerts issued by NOAA allow those with systems sensitive to such activity to take preventative action. The RTSW system gathers solar wind and energetic particle data at high time resolution from four ACE instruments (MAG, SWEPAM, EPAM, and SIS), packs the data into a low-rate bit stream, and broadcasts the data continuously. NASA sends real-time data to NOAA each day when downloading science data. With a combination of dedicated ground stations (CRL in Japan and RAL in Great Britain), and time on existing ground tracking networks (NASA's DSN and the USAF's AFSCN), the RTSW system can receive data 24 hours per day throughout the year. The raw data are immediately sent from the ground station to the Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado, processed, and then delivered to its Space Weather Operations Center where they are used in daily operations; the data are also delivered to the CRL Regional Warning Center at Hiraiso, Japan, to the USAF 55th Space Weather Squadron, and placed on the World Wide Web. The data are downloaded, processed and dispersed within 5 min from the time they leave ACE. The RTSW system also uses the low-energy energetic particles to warn of approaching interplanetary shocks, and to help monitor the flux of high-energy particles that can produce radiation damage in satellite systems. [15]\nThe spectra of particles observed by ACE\nOxygen fluences observed by ACE\nThe figure shows the particle fluence (total flux over a given period of time) of oxygen at ACE for a time period just after solar minimum, the part of the 11-year solar cycle when solar activity is lowest.[16] The lowest-energy particles come from the slow and fast solar wind, with speeds from about 300 to about 800 kilometers per second. Like the solar wind distribution of all ions, that of oxygen has a suprathermal tail of higher-energy particles; that is, in the frame of the bulk solar wind, the plasma has an energy distribution that is approximately a thermal distribution but has a notable excess above about 5 kiloelectron volts, as shown in Figure 1. The ACE team has made contributions to understanding the origins of these tails and their role in injecting particles into additional acceleration processes.\nAt energies higher than those of the solar wind particles, ACE observes particles from regions known as corotating interaction regions (CIRs). CIRs form because the solar wind is not uniform. Due to solar rotation, high-speed streams collide with preceding slow solar wind, creating shock waves at roughly 2\u20135 astronomical units (AU, the distance between Earth and the Sun) and forming CIRs. Particles accelerated by these shocks are commonly observed at 1 AU below energies of about 10 megaelectron volts per nucleon. ACE measurements confirm that CIRs include a significant fraction of singly charged helium formed when interstellar neutral helium is ionized.[17]\nAt yet higher energies, the major contribution to the measured flux of particles is due to solar energetic particles (SEPs) associated with interplanetary (IP) shocks driven by fast coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar flares. Enriched abundances of helium-3 and helium ions show that the suprathermal tails are the main seed population for these SEPs.[18] IP shocks traveling at speeds up to about 2000 kilometers per second accelerate particles from the suprathermal tail to 100 megaelectron volts per nucleon and more. IP shocks are particularly important because they can continue to accelerate particles as they pass over ACE and thus allow shock acceleration processes to be studied in situ.\nOther high-energy particles observed by ACE are anomalous cosmic rays (ACRs) that originate with neutral interstellar atoms that are ionized in the inner heliosphere to make \u201cpickup\u201d ions and are later accelerated to energies greater than 10 megaelectron volts per nucleon in the outer heliosphere. ACE also observes pickup ions directly; they are easily identified because they are singly charged. Finally, the highest-energy particles observed by ACE are the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), thought to be accelerated by shock waves from supernova explosions in our galaxy.\nOther findings from ACE\nShortly after launch, the SEP sensors on ACE detected solar events that had unexpected characteristics. Unlike most large, shock-accelerated SEP events, these were highly enriched in iron and helium-3, as are the much smaller, flare-associated impulsive SEP events.[19][20] Within the first year of operations, ACE found many of these \u201chybrid\u201d events, which led to substantial discussion within the community as to what conditions could generate them.[21]\nOne remarkable recent discovery in heliospheric physics has been the ubiquitous presence of suprathermal particles with common spectral shape. This shape unexpectedly occurs in the quiet solar wind; in disturbed conditions downstream from shocks, including CIRs; and elsewhere in the heliosphere. These observations have led Fisk and Gloeckler [22] to suggest a novel mechanism for the particles\u2019 acceleration.\nAnother discovery has been that the current solar cycle, as measured by sunspots, CMEs, and SEPs, has been much less magnetically active than the previous cycle. McComas et al.[23] have shown that the dynamic pressures of the solar wind measured by the Ulysses satellite over all latitudes and by ACE in the ecliptic plane are correlated and were declining in time for about 2 decades. They concluded that the Sun had been undergoing global change that affected the overall heliosphere. Simultaneously, GCR intensities were increasing and in 2009 were the highest recorded during the past 50 years.[24] GCRs have more difficulty reaching Earth when the Sun is more magnetically active, so the high GCR intensity in 2009 is consistent with a globally reduced dynamic pressure of the solar wind.\nACE also measures abundances of cosmic ray nickel-59 and cobalt-59 isotopes; these measurements indicate that a time longer than the half-life of nickel-59 with bound electrons (7.6 \u00d7 104 years) elapsed between the time nickel-59 was created in a supernova explosion and the time cosmic rays were accelerated.[25] Such long delays indicate that cosmic rays come from the acceleration of old stellar or interstellar material rather than from fresh supernova ejecta. ACE also measures an iron-58/iron-56 ratio that is enriched over the same ratio in solar system material.[26] These and other findings have led to a theory of the origin of cosmic rays in galactic superbubbles, formed in regions where many supernovae explode within a few million years. Recent observations of a cocoon of freshly accelerated cosmic rays in the Cygnus superbubble by the Fermi gamma-ray observatory[27] support this theory.\nFollow-on space weather observatory\nOn February 11, 2015, the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR)\u2014with several similar instruments including a newer and more sensitive instrument to detect Earth-bound coronal mass ejections\u2014successfully launched by NOAA and NASA aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch vehicle from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The spacecraft arrived at L1 by 8 June 2015, just over 100 days after launch.[28] Along with ACE, both will provide space weather data as long as ACE can continue to function.[29]\nCluster (spacecraft)\nHelios (spacecraft)\nMagnetospheric Multiscale Mission (MMS), launched 2015\nParker Solar Probe, launched in August 2018\nSolar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), launched 2010, still operational\nSolar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), launched 1995, still operational\nSolar Maximum Mission (SMM), launched 1980, decommissioned 1989\nSolar Orbiter (SOLO), set to launch in 2019\nSTEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory), launched 2006, still operational\nTom Krimigis\nTransition Region and Coronal Explorer (TRACE), launched 1998, decommissioned 2010\nUlysses (spacecraft), launched 1990, decommissioned 2009\nWIND (spacecraft), launched 1994, still operational\n^ \"Satellite to aid space weather forecasting\".

He had been Assistant Vice President for Space Science and Engineering at the Southwest Research Institute, full Adjoint Professor of Physics at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), and was the founding director of the Center for Space Science and Exploration at Los Alamos National Laboratory. He is noted for his extensive accomplishments in experimental space plasma physics, including leading instruments and missions to study the heliosphere and solar wind: Ulysses/SWOOPS, ACE/SWEPAM, IBEX, TWINS, and Parker Solar Probe. He received the 2014 COSPAR Space Science Award and the NASA Exceptional Public Service Medal.\nHalloween solar storms, 2003\nThe Halloween solar storms were a series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections that occurred from mid-October to early November 2003, peaking around October 28\u201329. This series of storms generated the largest solar flare ever recorded by the GOES system, modeled as strong as X45 (initially estimated at X28 due to saturation of GOES' detectors). Satellite-based systems and communications were affected, aircraft were advised to avoid high altitudes near the polar regions, and a one-hour-long power outage occurred in Sweden as a result of the solar activity. Aurorae were observed at latitudes as far south as Texas and the Mediterranean countries of Europe.The SOHO satellite failed temporarily, and the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) was damaged by the solar activity. Numerous other spacecraft were damaged or experienced downtime due to various issues. Some of them were intentionally put into safe mode in order to protect sensitive equipment. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) had to stay inside the more shielded parts of the Russian Orbital Segment to protect themselves against the increased radiation levels. Both the Ulysses spacecraft which was near Jupiter at the time, and Cassini, approaching Saturn, were able to detect the emissions. In April 2004, Voyager 2 was also able to detect them as they reached the spacecraft. One of the solar storms was compared by some scientists in its intensity to the Carrington Event of 1859.These events occurred during solar cycle 23, approximately three years after its peak in 2000, which was marked by another occurrence of solar activity known as the Bastille Day Flare.\nThe term heliophysics means \"physics of the Sun\" (the prefix \"helio\", from Attic Greek h\u1e17lios, means Sun), and appears to have been used only in that sense until quite recently. In the early times, heliophysics was concerned principally with the superficial layers of the star, and was synonymous with what is now more commonly called \"solar physics\". Usage was extended explicitly in 1981 to its literal meaning, denoting the physics of the entire Sun: from center to corona, and has been used in that sense since. As such it was a direct translation from the French h\u00e9liophysique, which had been introduced to provide a distinction from physique solaire (solar physics). It thus became a subdiscipline of heliology. Early in the 21st century the meaning of the term was extended by Dr George Siscoe of Boston University to include the physics of the heliosphere (the space around the Sun beyond the corona, in principle out to the shock where the solar wind encounters the interstellar medium, but excluding the planets and other condensed bodies), although Siscoe's view of the discipline appears not to contain most of the true realm of endeavour. The term was adopted in Siscoe's restricted sense by the NASA Science Mission Directorate to denote the study of the heliosphere and the objects that interact with it\u2014most notably planetary atmospheres and magnetospheres, the solar corona, and the interstellar medium. Heliophysics combines several other disciplines, including solar physics, and stellar physics in general, and also several branches of nuclear physics, plasma physics, space physics and magnetospheric physics. Solar wind interaction with magnetized planets, Solar wind propagation, Solar activity effects on planetary magnetospheres. Solar magnetic field configuration from the Sun to the Heliopause. The recent extension of heliophysics is closely tied to the study of space weather and the phenomena that affect it, and consequently to space climate and to terrestrial climatology. To quote Siscoe from a recent conference presentation:\nHeliophysics [encompasses] environmental science, a unique hybrid between meteorology and astrophysics, comprising a body of data and a set of paradigms (general laws\u2014perhaps mostly still undiscovered) specific to magnetized plasmas and neutrals in the heliosphere interacting with themselves and with gravitating bodies and their atmospheres.\n\"Heliophysics\" is now the name of one of four divisions within NASA's Science Mission Directorate (Earth Science, Planetary Science, Heliophysics, and Astrophysics). The title was used to simplify the name of the \"Sun--Solar-System Connections\" Division (and before that, the \"Sun-Earth Connections\" Division).\nNASA's restricted use of the term heliophysics has also been adopted in naming the International Heliophysical Year in 2007-2008.\nThe Heliophysics Science Division of the Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA) conducts research on the Sun, its extended solar system environment (the heliosphere), and interactions of Earth, other planets, small bodies, and interstellar gas with the heliosphere. Division research also encompasses geospace\u2014Earth's uppermost atmosphere, the ionosphere, and the magnetosphere\u2014and the changing environmental conditions throughout the coupled heliosphere (solar system weather).\nScientists in the Heliophysics Science Division develop models, spacecraft missions and instruments, and systems to manage and disseminate heliophysical data. They interpret and evaluate data gathered from instruments, draw comparisons with computer simulations and theoretical models, and publish the results. The Division also conducts education and public outreach programs to communicate the excitement and social value of NASA heliophysics.\nIn celestial mechanics, the Lagrangian points ( also Lagrange points, L-points, or libration points) are the points near two large bodies in orbit where a smaller object will maintain its position relative to the large orbiting bodies. At other locations, a small object would go into its own orbit around one of the large bodies, but at the Lagrangian points the gravitational forces of the two large bodies, the centripetal force of orbital motion, and (for certain points) the Coriolis acceleration all match up in a way that cause the small object to maintain a stable or nearly stable position relative to the large bodies.\nThere are five such points, labeled L1 to L5, all in the orbital plane of the two large bodies, for each given combination of two orbital bodies. For instance, there are five Lagrangian points L1 to L5 for the Sun-Earth system, and in a similar way there are five different Langrangian points for the Earth-Moon system. L1, L2, and L3 are on the line through the centers of the two large bodies. L4 and L5 each form an equilateral triangle with the centers of the large bodies. L4 and L5 are stable, which implies that objects can orbit around them in a rotating coordinate system tied to the two large bodies.\nSeveral planets have trojan satellites near their L4 and L5 points with respect to the Sun. Jupiter has more than a million of these trojans. Artificial satellites have been placed at L1 and L2 with respect to the Sun and Earth, and with respect to the Earth and the Moon. The Lagrangian points have been proposed for uses in space exploration.\nLissajous orbit\nIn orbital mechanics, a Lissajous orbit (pronounced [li.sa.\u0292u]), named after Jules Antoine Lissajous, is a quasi-periodic orbital trajectory that an object can follow around a Lagrangian point of a three-body system without requiring any propulsion. Lyapunov orbits around a Lagrangian point are curved paths that lie entirely in the plane of the two primary bodies. In contrast, Lissajous orbits include components in this plane and perpendicular to it, and follow a Lissajous curve. Halo orbits also include components perpendicular to the plane, but they are periodic, while Lissajous orbits are not.In practice, any orbits around Lagrangian points L1, L2, or L3 are dynamically unstable, meaning small departures from equilibrium grow over time. As a result, spacecraft in these Lagrangian point orbits must use their propulsion systems to perform orbital station-keeping. Although they are not perfectly stable, a modest effort of station keeping keeps a spacecraft in a desired Lissajous orbit for a long time.\nIn the absence of other influences, orbits about Lagrangian points L4 and L5 are dynamically stable so long as the ratio of the masses of the two main objects is greater than about 25. The natural dynamics keep the spacecraft (or natural celestial body) in the vicinity of the Lagrangian point without use of a propulsion system, even when slightly perturbed from equilibrium. These orbits can however be destabilized by other nearby massive objects. For example, orbits around the L4 and L5 points in the Earth\u2013Moon system can last only a few million years instead of billions because of perturbations by the planets.\nList of heliophysics missions\nThis is a list of missions supporting heliophysics, including solar observatory missions, solar orbiters, and spacecraft studying the solar wind.\nThis is a list of known objects which occupy, have occupied, or are planned to occupy any of the five Lagrangian points of two-body systems in space.\nOrbital station-keeping\nIn astrodynamics, the orbital maneuvers made by thruster burns that are needed to keep a spacecraft in a particular assigned orbit are called orbital station-keeping.\nFor many Earth satellites the effects of the non-Keplerian forces, i.e. the deviations of the gravitational force of the Earth from that of a homogeneous sphere, gravitational forces from Sun/Moon, solar radiation pressure and air drag, must be counteracted.\nThe deviation of Earth's gravity field from that of a homogeneous sphere and gravitational forces from Sun/Moon will in general perturb the orbital plane. For a sun-synchronous orbit the precession of the orbital plane caused by the oblateness of the Earth is a desirable feature that is part of the mission design but the inclination change caused by the gravitational forces of Sun/Moon is undesirable. For geostationary spacecraft the inclination change caused by the gravitational forces of the Sun & Moon must be counteracted by a rather large expense of fuel, as the inclination should be kept sufficiently small for the spacecraft to be tracked by a non-steerable antenna.\nFor spacecraft in low orbits the effects of atmospheric drag must often be compensated for. For some missions this is needed simply to avoid re-entry; for other missions, typically missions for which the orbit should be accurately synchronized with Earth rotation, this is necessary to avoid the orbital period shortening.\nSolar radiation pressure will in general perturb the eccentricity (i.e. the eccentricity vector), see Orbital perturbation analysis (spacecraft). For some missions this must be actively counter-acted with manoeuvres. For geostationary spacecraft the eccentricity must be kept sufficiently small for a spacecraft to be tracked with a non-steerable antenna. Also for Earth observation spacecraft for which a very repetitive orbit with a fixed ground track is desirable, the eccentricity vector should be kept as fixed as possible. A large part of this compensation can be done by using a frozen orbit design, but for the fine control manoeuvres with thrusters are needed.\nFor spacecraft in a halo orbit around a Lagrangian point station-keeping is even more fundamental, as such an orbit is unstable; without an active control with thruster burns the smallest deviation in position/velocity would result in the spacecraft leaving the orbit completely.\nAn orbiter is a space probe that orbits a planet or other astronomical object.\nThe RTX2010 manufactured by Intersil is a radiation hardened stack machine microprocessor which has been used in numerous spacecraft.\nThe Solar Maximum Mission satellite (or SolarMax) was designed to investigate Solar phenomena, particularly solar flares. It was launched on February 14, 1980. The SMM was the first satellite based on the Multimission Modular Spacecraft bus manufactured by Fairchild Industries, a platform which was later used for Landsats 4 and 5 as well as the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite.\nAfter an attitude control failure in Nov 1980 it was put in standby mode until April 1984 when it was repaired by a Shuttle mission.\nThe Solar Maximum Mission ended on December 2, 1989, when the spacecraft re-entered the atmosphere and burned up over the Indian Ocean.\nThe Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) is a spacecraft built by a European industrial consortium led by Matra Marconi Space (now Astrium) that was launched on a Lockheed Martin Atlas II AS launch vehicle on December 2, 1995 to study the Sun. SOHO has also discovered over 3,000 comets. It began normal operations in May 1996. It is a joint project of international cooperation between the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA. Originally planned as a two-year mission, SOHO continues to operate after over 20 years in space: the mission is extended until the end of 2020 with a likely extension until 2022.In addition to its scientific mission, it is the main source of near-real-time solar data for space weather prediction. Along with the GGS Wind, Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) and DSCOVR, SOHO is one of four spacecraft in the vicinity of the Earth\u2013Sun L1 point, a point of gravitational balance located approximately 0.99 astronomical unit (AU)s from the Sun and 0.01 AU from the Earth. In addition to its scientific contributions, SOHO is distinguished by being the first three-axis-stabilized spacecraft to use its reaction wheels as a kind of virtual gyroscope; the technique was adopted after an on-board emergency in 1998 that nearly resulted in the loss of the spacecraft.\nThe solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun, called the corona. This plasma consists of mostly electrons, protons and alpha particles with kinetic energy between 0.5 and 10 keV. Embedded within the solar-wind plasma is the interplanetary magnetic field. The solar wind varies in density, temperature and speed over time and over solar latitude and longitude. Its particles can escape the Sun's gravity because of their high energy resulting from the high temperature of the corona, which in turn is a result of the coronal magnetic field.\nAt a distance of more than a few solar radii from the Sun, the solar wind is supersonic and reaches speeds of 250 to 750 kilometers per second. The flow of the solar wind is no longer supersonic at the termination shock. The Voyager 2 spacecraft crossed the shock more than five times between 30 August and 10 December 2007. Voyager 2 crossed the shock about a billion kilometers closer to the Sun than the 13.5-billion-kilometer distance where Voyager 1 came upon the termination shock. The spacecraft moved outward through the termination shock into the heliosheath and onward toward the interstellar medium. Other related phenomena include the aurora (northern and southern lights), the plasma tails of comets that always point away from the Sun, and geomagnetic storms that can change the direction of magnetic field lines.\nSpace physics is the study of plasmas as they occur naturally in the Earth's upper atmosphere (aeronomy) and within the Solar System. As such, it encompasses a far-ranging number of topics, such as heliophysics which includes the solar physics of the Sun: the solar wind, planetary magnetospheres and ionospheres, auroras, cosmic rays, and synchrotron radiation. Space physics is a fundamental part of the study of space weather and has important implications in not only to understanding the universe, but also for practical everyday life, including the operations of communications and weather satellites.\nSpace physics is distinct from astrophysical plasma and the field of astrophysics, which studies similar plasma phenomena beyond the Solar System. Space physics utilizes in situ measurements from high altitude rockets and spacecraft, in contrast to astrophysical plasma that relies deduction of theory and astronomical observation.\nStamatios (Tom) M.

He has contributed to exploration missions to almost every planet of the Solar System. In 1999, the International Astronomical Union named the asteroid 8323 Krimigis (previously 1979 UH) in his honor.\nUnmanned or uncrewed spacecraft are spacecraft without people on board, used for unmanned spaceflight. Uncrewed spacecraft may have varying levels of autonomy from human input; they may be remote controlled, remote guided or even autonomous, meaning they have a pre-programmed list of operations, which they will execute unless otherwise instructed. Many habitable spacecraft also have varying levels of robotic features. For example, the space stations Salyut 7 and Mir, and the ISS module Zarya were capable of remote guided station-keeping, and docking maneuvers with both resupply craft and new modules. The most common uncrewed spacecraft categories are robotic spacecraft, uncrewed resupply spacecraft, space probes and space observatories. Not every uncrewed spacecraft is a robotic spacecraft; for example, a reflector ball is a non-robotic uncrewed spacecraft.\nWhistler (radio)\nA whistler is a very low frequency or VLF electromagnetic (radio) wave generated by lightning. Frequencies of terrestrial whistlers are 1 kHz to 30 kHz, with a maximum amplitude usually at 3 kHz to 5 kHz. Although they are electromagnetic waves, they occur at audio frequencies, and can be converted to audio using a suitable receiver. They are produced by lightning strikes (mostly intracloud and return-path) where the impulse travels along the Earth's magnetic field lines from one hemisphere to the other. They undergo dispersion of several kHz due to the slower velocity of the lower frequencies through the plasma environments of the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Thus they are perceived as a descending tone which can last for a few seconds. The study of whistlers categorizes them into Pure Note, Diffuse, 2-Hop, and Echo Train types.\nVoyager 1 and 2 spacecraft detected whistler-like activity in the vicinity of Jupiter, implying the presence of lightning there.",

        "raw_content": "Richard Michael \"Goose\" Gossage (born July 5, 1951) is a former Major League Baseball right-handed relief pitcher. During a 22-year baseball career (from 1972\u20131994), he pitched for nine different teams, spending his best years with the New York Yankees and San Diego Padres. The nickname \"Goose\" came about when a friend did not like his previous nickname \"Goss\", and noted he looked like a goose when he extended his neck to read the signs given by the catcher when he was pitching. Although Gossage is otherwise generally referred to as \"Rich\" in popular media, a baseball field named after him bears the name \"Rick.\"[1]\nIn the late 1970s and early 1980s, he was one of the earliest manifestations of the dominating modern closer, with wild facial hair and a gruff demeanor to go along with his blistering fastball. He led the American League in saves three times and was runner-up twice; by the end of the 1987 season he ranked second in major-league career saves, trailing only Rollie Fingers, although by the end of his career his total of 310 had slipped to fourth all-time. When he retired he also ranked third in major-league career games pitched (1,002), and he remains third in wins in relief (115) and innings pitched in relief (1,556\u2154); his 1,502 strikeouts place him behind only Hoyt Wilhelm among pitchers who pitched primarily in relief. He also is the career leader in blown saves (112). From 1977 through 1983 he never recorded an earned run average over 2.62, including a mark of 0.77 in 1981, and in 1980 he finished third in AL voting for both the MVP Award and Cy Young Award as the Yankees won a division title.[2]\nRespected for his impact in crucial games, Gossage recorded the final out to clinch a division, league, or World Series title seven times. His eight All-Star selections as a reliever were a record until Mariano Rivera passed him in 2008; he was also selected once as a starting pitcher. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2008. He now works in broadcasting.\nMLB: April 16, 1972, for the Chicago White Sox\nNPB: July 4, 1990, for the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks\nMLB: August 8, 1994, for the Seattle Mariners\nNPB: October 10, 1990, for the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks\nFukuoka Daiei Hawks (1990)\n9\u00d7 All-Star (1975\u20131978, 1980\u20131982, 1984, 1985)\nAL Rolaids Relief Man Award (1978)\n3\u00d7 AL saves leader (1975, 1978, 1980)\nGossage attended Wasson High School in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Chicago White Sox selected him in the ninth round of the 1970 Major League Baseball draft.\nGossage led the American League (AL) in saves in 1975 (26). After the 1976 season, the White Sox traded Gossage and Terry Forster to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Silvio Martinez and Richie Zisk.[3] He became a free agent after the 1977 season, and signed with the New York Yankees.\nGossage again led the AL in saves in 1978 (27) and 1980 (33). On October 2, 1978, he earned the save in the Yankees' one-game playoff against the Boston Red Sox for the AL East title, entering with one out in the seventh inning and a 4-2 lead following Bucky Dent's home run; although he allowed two runs in the eighth inning, he held on to preserve the 5-4 victory, getting Carl Yastrzemski to pop up to third baseman Graig Nettles with two out and two men on base in the ninth inning to clinch the division championship. He was also on the mound five days later when the Yankees clinched the pennant in the ALCS against the Kansas City Royals, entering Game 4 in the ninth inning with a 2-1 lead and a runner on second base; he earned the save by striking out Clint Hurdle and retiring Darrell Porter and Pete LaCock on fly balls. He was on the mound ten days later when they captured the World Series title against the Los Angeles Dodgers for their second consecutive championship, coming on with no one out in the eighth inning of Game 6; he retired Ron Cey on a popup to catcher Thurman Munson to clinch the win.\nOne of his most impressive performances was on September 3, 1978, in a game vs. the Seattle Mariners. Replacing Sparky Lyle in the top of the 9th with runners on second and third and no outs, he preserved a 4-3 lead by striking out the next three batters in 11 pitches.[4][5]\nHe missed some of the 1979 season with the Yankees with a thumb injury sustained in a locker-room fight with teammate Cliff Johnson. Ron Guidry, the reigning Cy Young Award winner, volunteered to go to the bullpen to replace him. In the first game of a doubleheader on October 4, 1980, Gossage pitched the last two innings of a 5-2 win over the Detroit Tigers, earning his career-high 33rd save as New York clinched another division title. On October 10, George Brett of the Royals hit a tide-turning three-run homer off Gossage into Yankee Stadium's right-field upper deck to lead the Royals to a three-game sweep in the AL Championship Series, after the Yankees had defeated the Royals in three consecutive ALCS from 1976 to 1978. Almost three years later during the regular season, Brett got to the Goose again in the Bronx, blasting a go-ahead two-run home run in the top of the ninth in a game memorialized as the \"Pine Tar Game.\"\nGossage during 1983 spring training\nGossage recorded saves in all three Yankee victories in the 1981 AL Division Series against the Milwaukee Brewers, not allowing a run in 6\u2154 innings, and he was again the final pitcher when they clinched the 1981 pennant against the Oakland Athletics. In 1983, his last season with the Yankees, Gossage broke Sparky Lyle's club record of 141 career saves; Dave Righetti passed his final total of 150 in 1988. Gossage holds the Yankees' career record for ERA (2.14) and hits per nine innings (6.59) among pitchers with at least 500 innings for the team.\nIn eight of his first ten seasons as a closer, Gossage's ERA was less than 2.27.[6] Over his career, right-handed hitters hit .211 against him.\nGossage became upset with Yankees' owner George Steinbrenner for meddling with the team. In 1982, he called Steinbrenner \"the fat man upstairs\", and disapproved of the way Yankees' manager Billy Martin used him. Gossage became a free agent after the 1983 season, and insisted that he would not resign with New York.[7] He signed with the San Diego Padres. In 1984, Gossage clinched another title, earning the save in Game 5 of the NL Championship Series and sending the Padres to their first World Series; after San Diego had scored four runs in the seventh inning to take a 6-3 lead against the Chicago Cubs, Gossage pitched the final two innings, getting Jody Davis to hit into a force play for the final out. On August 17, 1986, Gossage struck out Pete Rose in Rose's final major-league at bat.[8]\nBefore the 1988 season, the Padres traded Gossage and Ray Hayward to the Cubs for Keith Moreland and Mike Brumley.[9] On August 6, 1988, while with the Cubs, Gossage became the second pitcher to record 300 career saves in a 7-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies, coming into the game with two out in the ninth and two men on base and retiring Phil Bradley on a popup to second baseman Ryne Sandberg. Released by the Cubs in March 1989, he signed with the San Francisco Giants in April. The Yankees selected Gossage off of waivers in August.[10][11] He pitched for the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks of Nippon Professional Baseball in 1990.\nGossage signed with the Texas Rangers for the 1991 season. On July 23, 1991, a statistical coincidence was noted when he recorded his 308th career save to preserve Nolan Ryan's 308th win. Gossage signed one-year contracts to pitch for the Oakland Athletics in 1992 and 1993.[11]\nA ticket from the game where Gossage earned his 300th save.\nGossage signed with the Seattle Mariners for the 1994 season. On August 4, 1994, Gossage became the third pitcher in major league history to appear in 1,000 games. Gossage entered a game against the California Angels with two out in the seventh inning and runners on second and third base, trailing 2-1; he picked up the win when the Mariners scored three times in the eighth for a 4-2 victory. In his final major league appearance on August 8, he earned a save of three innings\u2014his first in over 15 months\u2014in the Mariners' 14-4 win over the Rangers, retiring all nine batters he faced; Jos\u00e9 Canseco flied out to left field to end the game.\nGossage had a record 112 career blown saves. ESPN.com noted that blown saves are \"non-qualitative\", pointing out that the two career leaders\u2014Gossage and Rollie Fingers (109)\u2014were both inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.[12] Fran Zimniuch in Fireman: The Evolution of the Closer in Baseball wrote, \"But you have to be a great relief pitcher to blow that many saves. Clearly, [Gossage] saved many, many more than he did not save.\"[13] More than half of Gossage's blown saves came in tough situations, with the tying run on base when the pitcher entered. In nearly half of those blown tough saves, he entered the game in the sixth or seventh inning. Multiple-inning outings provide more chances for a reliever to blow a save, as he needs not only to get out of the initial situation but also to pitch additional innings in which to possibly lose the lead.[14]\nPioneer of the closer role\nThe New York Yankees of the late 1970s and early 1980s arguably pioneered the set-up/closer configuration, which is used by every team today. The most effective pairing was Ron Davis and Gossage, with Davis typically entering the game in the 7th or 8th innings and Gossage finishing up. During one stretch with that pairing, the Yankees won 77 of 79 games in which they led after six innings.\nGossage and top relievers of his era were known as firemen, relievers who entered the game when a lead was in jeopardy\u2014usually with men on base\u2014and regardless of the inning and often pitching two or three innings while finishing the game.[15][16][17] Gossage had 17 games where he recorded at least 10 outs in his first season as a closer, including three games where he went seven innings. He pitched over 130 innings as a reliever in three different seasons.[16] He had more saves of at least two innings than saves where he pitched one inning or less.[18] The ace reliever's role evolved to where he was reserved for games where the team had a lead of three runs or less in the ninth inning.[19] Mariano Rivera, considered the greatest closer of his era,[20] earned only one save of seven-plus outs in his career, while Gossage logged 53.[21] \"Don't tell me [Rivera's] the best relief pitcher of all-time until he can do the same job I did. He may be the best modern closer, but you have to compare apples to apples. Do what we did,\" said Gossage.[22]\nDuring his career, Gossage pitched in 1,002 games and finished 681 of them, earning 310 saves. Per nine innings pitched, he averaged 7.45 hits allowed and 7.47 strikeouts. He also made nine All-Star appearances and pitched in three World Series.\nGossage was one of the few pitchers who employed basically just one pitch, a fastball. However, his fastball was one of the best of all time, routinely throwing in the 98- to 102-mph range in his prime, with pinpoint accuracy. Occasionally he would throw a slurve or a changeup, but mainly just came right at hitters with heat, not afraid to knock them down to keep them from crowding the inner half of the strike zone. Despite his reputation as a pitcher who intentionally threw at hitters, Gossage stated that he only threw at three hitters in his career: Ron Gant, Andr\u00e9s Galarraga, and Al Bumbry.[23] Even into his 40s, in the early 1990s, he still threw regularly in the mid-90s, though he did not close games as often as he did in his youth, serving as a capable and intimidating setup man.\nGossage had a reputation as a no-nonsense no-frills pitcher who wasted no time on the mound. Throwing only one kind of pitch left little need for communicating with the catcher. He would stand on the mound and pitch from the stretch position as soon as the batter was in the batter's box.\nGossage at the All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball Game during the 2008 All-Star break.\nGossage lives in his home town, Colorado Springs, Colorado, and is active in the community promoting and sponsoring youth sports. In 1995, the city of Colorado Springs dedicated the Rick \"Goose\" Gossage Youth Sports Complex,[24] which features five fields for youth baseball and softball competition. He also owned a hamburger restaurant in Parker, Colorado, called Burgers N Sports.\nHe has written an autobiography, released in 2000, entitled The Goose is Loose (Ballantine: New York).\nHis son, Todd, is a professional baseball player who has played for the Sussex Skyhawks, Newark Bears, and Rockland Boulders of the Can-Am League.\nGossage coached the American League team in the Taco Bell All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game in Anaheim, California on July 12, 2010.[25]\nAt the Hall of Fame induction in 2008, Gossage expressed gratitude to a number of baseball people who had helped him through his career, and several times described his Hall of Fame week experience as \"amazing\".[26] The inductions included Dick Williams, his manager at San Diego. After the ceremonies, the two of them sat together for an ESPN interview on the podium, taking audience questions and gently ribbing each other, especially about the upper-deck home run Kirk Gibson hit off Gossage in the 1984 World Series.\nThe Yankees honored Gossage with a plaque in Monument Park on June 22, 2014.[27]\nList of Major League Baseball annual saves leaders\n^ http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/cc353/TameraGoldsmith/CS%20Daily%20Photo%202009/07082009.jpg\n^ \"Chat: Chat with former pitcher Goose Gossage \u2013 SportsNation \u2013 ESPN\".

        "title": "AI and Machine Learning: The Poincare Five Step Process",
        "raw_content": "John Sharp - Saturday, April 1, 2017 - 9,481 Views\nIn 1908, Henri Poincare, the famous French mathematician, and pioneer of what we now call machine learning, wrote down what would later become the four stages of the \"Gestalt\" model of learning and psychology: Saturation, Incubation, Inspiration, and Verification. Einstein, who found Poincare's four stages to be a tad etherial, later suggested a fifth, rather practical step: \"Perspiration\".\nTo anyone, such as myself, wishing to better understand the subtleties of artificial intelligence, these five stages of learning (and doing) offer a useful guide to practical visualisations of AI and machine learning. Let's start by substituting some potential modern equivalents:\nSaturation: Datification/Digitization and Data Gathering\nIncubation: Data Classification and Analysis\nInspiration: Identification of Patterns and Insights\nVerification: Real-World Testing and Confirmation\nPerspiration: Automated Responses and Process Improvement\nHere's a simple (modern) example of how we can apply these five steps: A web designer programs for an e-commerce store programs a testing application to conduct A/B/C testing on three versions of the site's home page to determine which of the three web site designs leads to greater sales on the site (saturation) and sets the program to run for a week (incubation). At the end of the week, the program is instructed to make a decision on the most effective page (inspiration) and push all traffic to it, whereby the conversation rates can be expected to improve over the per-testing rates (verification.)\nAt the end of the first four steps, it can be argued that we are entering the realm of \"artificial intelligence\" - defined by Forbes writer Bernard Marr as \"the broader concept of machines being able to carry out tasks in a way that we would consider \u201csmart\".\nBut if all we do is move through these four steps one time, we're not really developing intelligence, so much as building a system with a single output. As with evolution, real intelligence doesn't stop at repetition of a single successful action - intelligence evolves.\nIndeed, true intelligence, whether natural or artificial, requires that the breadth and depth of the understanding of the owner of that intelligence must grow over time. I still remember the answer my tenth-grade teacher, Rod Davis, provided to us when I asked him for a definition of intelligence. \"The more intelligent you are\", he said, \"the more situations you can deal with.\" I liked that definition at the time - and I still like it now. So to truly grow intelligence, either naturally or artificially, we need to do what children do, and iterate, and learn more and more from each interaction with the data.\nIt's at this point that we can begin to define \"machine learning\". Machine learning is sometimes seen as a subset or \"interim step\" in artificial intelligence, but an increasing number of people involved in AI view machine learning as the \"enabler\" - the builder/creator of intelligence. Because machine learning is about taking ownership of the steps and building more knowledge, based on changes to the data sets, the weighting of various forms of analysis, the iteration rates, the testing results... to stretch the earlier analogy, what machine learning is about, is \"perspiration\". Using machines, not humans.\nWe have more than a passing interest in this stuff - our investment strategy over the next five years depends in part on our ability to automate tasks related to the discovery and successful processing of new investments.\nOn that score, we're confident that the current workflow processes predominant in venture can be significantly improved and automated, enabling even the smallest funds to gain from the well-known benefits of portfolio theory. Beyond these benefits, the next phase of our evolution will involve the application of perspiration... sorry, machine learning... to the building of an increasingly robust artificial intelligence that supports venture investing. Stay tuned.",

        "raw_content": "After Election, Miami Fair Flip-Flops on Hosting Anti-Trump Art Project\nThe day after the election, the art collective T.Rutt was informed it would no longer get to show its anti-Trump bus and flag works at the Red Dot Fair in Miami.\nT.Rutt, T.Rump Bus post-election (2016) (all images courtesy the artists)\nThe day after Donald Trump was elected president, artists David Gleeson and Mary Mihelic \u2014 who have spent much of the last year criss-crossing the United States aboard a reclaimed Trump campaign bus \u2014 received an email from the president of the company that owns the Red Dot Art Fair, explaining he\u2019d changed his mind about displaying their works of anti-Trump protest art at the Art Basel Miami Beach satellite fair. \u201cIn light of the surprising results [of the election], I\u2019ve decided to pass on both the bus display and flag,\u201d wrote Eric Smith, president and CEO of the Ohio-based Redwood Media Group (which acquired Red Dot earlier this year), in an email shared with Hyperallergic. \u201cI trust you understand.\u201d\nThe \u201cbus display\u201d is the former Trump campaign bus turned rolling anti-Trump protest art project that Mihelic and Gleeson, of leftist art collective T.Rutt, spent the past year driving to Republican rallies. The \u201cflag\u201d is a large US flag that T.Rutt embroidered with the president elect\u2019s comments from the leaked Access Hollywood tape. Stitched in neon yellow on the flag\u2019s white stripes, the quote begins with \u201cI did try and fuck her,\u201d and ends with: \u201cGrab \u2018em by the pussy.\u201d\nT. Rutt, \u201cFlag desecration artwork\u201d (2016)\nMihelic and Gleeson were \u201cstunned\u201d by the email from Smith, who had previously offered them free space to exhibit and a place in Red Dot\u2019s \u201cArt Lab.\u201d \u201cI was like, \u2018no, I don\u2019t think I understand,\u2019\u201d Mihelic told Hyperallergic. The artists were troubled by the notion that their protest art no longer interested an art fair in light of the fact that the figure it protests had been elected president.\nIn a phone interview, Smith called his passing on displaying T.Rutt\u2019s protest art \u201ca business decision\u201d and denied that it was a reaction to Trump\u2019s election. \u201cI was always iffy about it,\u201d Smith said. \u201c[T.Rutt] has a limited budget, and they\u2019d asked for a [free] place to park the bus. Then I saw the flag project, which had some pretty derogatory words embroidered on it. The P word and \u2018fuck\u2019 and \u2018shit\u2019 and stuff on the flag. It just offended me. After a while, I thought it wasn\u2019t worth my while. It\u2019s kind of past news.\u201d\nWhen asked to explain why he was offended by quotations from the president elect stitched onto the American flag, Smith said: \u201cI think our flag is for all peoples. To make a statement about one person on the flag \u2014 I just didn\u2019t like it. You\u2019re not supposed to burn the flag, you\u2019re supposed to treat it in a certain way \u2026 according to American law.\u201d Burning or otherwise desecrating the flag has been legal for decades; the Supreme Court declared in 1990 that laws against desecrating the flag are unconstitutional.\nMihelic and Gleeson are concerned that, in the coming years, laws protecting freedom of speech will not be upheld, and that, even before the fact, people in power in the art world might bow to fear of potential censorship. \u201cI\u2019m a little nervous that with the new Supreme Court, the flag desecration artwork will become against the law,\u201d Mihelic says. \u201cThat [1990] law could easily be overturned under Trump and a different Supreme Court.\u201d\nT.Rutt, T.Rump Bus in New Hampshire (2016)\nSmith insists that his decision not to show T.Rutt\u2019s flag and bus was unrelated to concerns about restricted freedom of expression. \u201cIt didn\u2019t have anything to do with fear of censorship,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was purely a business decision.\u201d In addition to Red Dot, Redwood Media Group also owns and operates more than a half-dozen art fairs around the country, including Artexpo New York, Art San Diego, Art Santa Fe, and Spectrum Indian Wells. According to Mihelic and Gleeson, Smith contacted them after \u201chearing from people from the press\u201d to let them know that, if they wanted to pay the booth fees, like all other participating exhibitors, they could exhibit their work.\nNow, T.Rutt is still looking for a space at which to exhibit the anti-Trump bus and flag during Miami Art Week (December 1\u20134). One fair, the Satellite Art Show, had enthusiastically invited them to show their work, but didn\u2019t have the space. According to Mihelic, the P\u00e9rez Art Museum Miami said the work was \u201ctoo controversial\u201d for them. (A P\u00e9rez representative reached out to deny this claim.) Scope Miami Beach stopped responding to queries about showing T.Rutt\u2019s work after learning about the flag artwork.\n\u201cAfter all this, we do not think the top-tier of the art world will show anti-Trump protest artwork inside the USA under the Trump administration,\u201d Mihelic says. \u201cIf the initial reception of our anti-Trump artwork in Miami is any indication, it seems unlikely that the top-tier galleries, dealers, and fairs will take that risk under Trump.\u201d\nIn our grief hashtags now read, with a big sigh, \u2026\u2026men\u2026\u2026 & \u2026\u2026..great\u2026..\nOy! pic.twitter.com/GIwzipDZPz\n\u2014 t.Rutt2013 (@t_Rutt2013) November 10, 2016\nA few art fairs have released statements in the week since the election affirming their commitment to promoting diverse and progressive voices. In a \u201cstatement of solidarity,\u201d the Volta art fair wrote: \u201cVOLTA has and will continue to exhibit artists and gallerists from the margins, whether that be geographically or philosophically, including but not exclusive to racial minorities, the LGBTQ community, and women. Marginalised voices of all types will find a platform alongside the voices of colleagues and peers.\u201d Today, the Armory Show announced that its 2017 edition will include a thematic exhibition titled What is To Be Done? featuring 12 artists from 10 countries reflecting on \u201cthe idea of social and political awareness during a time of uncertainty.\u201d It remains to be seen, though, how many exhibitors in the coming year will display artworks that explicitly criticize Trump\u2019s statements and actions.\n\u201cWe have spent over a year generating work in response to Donald Trump\u2019s divisive campaign and articulating the importance of art in this deeply disruptive period for American society,\u201d Mihelic said. \u201cWe travelled the country engaging with thousands of Trump supporters about contemporary art and Donald Trump. If the art world is afraid to show that kind of art, we are in serious trouble. And if a President Trump tries to stifle that kind of work, who knows what that means for the art world. Who knows what that forebodes for society at large or the art world itself in particular.\u201d They suggest that it falls to individual artists to keep making this sort of art in the face of potential censorship or opposition. \u201cWe will continue to create artwork about Donald Trump,\u201d Mihelic says, \u201cand we are not afraid to do so.\u201d\nArt Basel Miami Beach 2016David GleesonDonald TrumpElection 2016eric smithMary Mihelicred dot art fairt.Rutt",

IAN's goal is to facilitate research that will lead to advancements in understanding and treating autism spectrum disorder (ASD). To accomplish this goal, we created the IAN Community and IAN Research.\nIAN is a partnership of the Kennedy Krieger Institute and the Simons Foundation, with partial funding through a Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Award.\nView our infographic to learn about IAN's achievements.\nThe IAN Community is an inviting library where everyone concerned with autism spectrum disorders can learn more about autism research. Everyone can participate and benefit from the IAN Community.\nOur goal is to help you:\nUnderstand the research process\nKeep up with the latest research findings, news, and events\nUnderstand the value of participating in autism research\nInfluence the direction of research\nWe hope that the IAN Community will bring individuals with ASD, their families, and friends together with researchers, therapists, educators, and other professionals in the autism field. The goal is to better understand this complex disorder through research and collaboration, and to develop effective strategies that will improve the lives of people on the spectrum.\nIAN Research\nIAN Research is scientific study where individuals with ASD, their families, and qualified researchers throughout the United States work together to understand autism spectrum disorder. IAN Research connects researchers to individuals with ASD and their families \u2014 the people who live with autism day to day \u2014 to uncover the secrets of this complex disorder.\nWithout leaving home, participants provide information in a secure online setting about diagnosis, behavior, family, environment, and services received. Participating parents report on their child\u2019s progress over time. Adults with ASD share information about their experiences and needs. Researchers from different institutions throughout the country will work with this information to learn about the effect and interaction of factors such as genetics, environment, and treatment, as well as the current situation and needs of those affected by ASD.\nEach year, many useful and innovative studies are not completed or are significantly delayed because researchers cannot find enough participants who qualify; valuable opportunities to learn about autism are lost. IAN Research matches willing individuals and families with appropriate local and national research projects. This partnership solves one of the major difficulties that autism research projects face\u2014recruiting enough participants.\nIndividuals with ASD and their families may benefit directly from this match because they will be able to participate in research that they would not have known about without IAN. Participation may also provide opportunities to learn more about ASD and its impact.

        "raw_content": "Privacy Perspectives | The rise of encryption in Turkey is not just about tech Related reading: Creating meaningful data protection out of US privacy proposals\nThe rise of encryption in Turkey is not just about tech\nYusuf Mansur \u00d6zer Yusuf Mansur \u00d6zer\nTurkey's digital literacy rate is arguably low, but every once in a while it takes a big leap forward.\nMore often than not, Turkey enters into a cycle where its public institutions try to cope up with the new norms of the digital age. It was precisely the case in 2014 when Twitter and YouTube were frequently censored amid allegations of massive corruption in the government. Back then, the enemy was social media.\nThat was the rise of anonymous browsing. It was then that people became experts of DNS, VPN, and TOR overnight.\nToday, we are witnessing the rise of private communications.\nIn the aftermath of the coup attempt, Turkey has declared a state of emergency, and tens of thousands of people have been arrested since. Because of the atmosphere created by this rather unpredictable storm, people have started to care deeply about the tools they use for the purposes of communication. After all, observation does change behaviour.\nDigital Rights, a platform where volunteers, including yours truly, review and summarize the privacy policies of technology services in Turkish language- had a 96-percent increase on its monthly traffic since July 15th, 2016. Unsurprisingly, WhatsApp and Telegram are by far the most viewed services.\nPeople are also gradually abandoning the tools that depend on traditional network technologies (e.g. SMS, phone calls). Instead, secure messaging and voice-over-IP apps are now preferred for even daily communications. There is no empirical data on this yet but one would see this trend simply by looking around in Turkey.\nThe Rise of Encryption\nThe main instrument that lies at the heart of what is explained above is, obviously, encryption and that is indeed on the rise in Turkey. But it is important to remember that this rise is not in the technical sense, but rather in terms of \"encryption literacy,\" if you will.\nformat_quote\u201c... unless there are revolutionary conditions it is simply not possible to control mass interception with legislation and policy.\u201d\n\u201c... even if the people have the best of intentions, it doesn\u2019t matter. The architecture is the truth.\u201d\nSuch is argued in Cypherpunks: Freedom and the Future of the Internet by Julian Assange and Jacob Appelbaum, which calls to mind the idea of code is law suggested by Lawrence Lessig. Encryption is slowly becoming the law in Turkey, and this is made possible by the very actions of those that were hoping for the opposite effect.\nIt is a long suggested argument that technology is a living organism which solves the very problems it creates. On one hand, the internet allowed surveillance in an unprecedented scale, but on the other, it was not long before technology struck back with the solution. Encryption enabled the citizens of the cyber world (i.e. netizens) to evade the prying eyes of third parties. Now, the same is adopted widely by the people of Turkey.\nTruly, there is an evolutionary balance to the nature of technology. And it seems that this balance is not only achieved by technical advancements but also through social change.\nphoto credit: Istanbul via photopin (license)\nPrivacy law and resolving 'deepfakes' online\nIn the aftermath of a high school shooting in Florida in early 2018, a pro-gun-control movement called the March for Our Lives seized political and media attention across the U.S. During that time, an image of one of the movement\u2019s leaders, Emma Gonzalez, ripping up the U.S. Constitution roared thro...\nAI ethics and moving beyond compliance\nThe digital economy is at the center of a seismic change with the convergence of big data and artificial intelligence.

        "raw_content": "The Solo Parent Family\nA solo parent family is one in which one parent manages the household alone for him/herself and his/ her children, with no regular partner. This family pattern includes families of widow/ers and children, divorcees and children, single women who choose to have children and raise them alone, and families in which the parents are separated and the children live with one parent only.\nMost solo parent families in Israel are headed by women (in 2001, 90.7 percent of solo parent families in which the youngest child was under 18. See Central Bureau of Statistics [hereinafter: CBS], Statistical Abstract of Israel, 2000: Table 12:5; for previous periods, see Gordon and Eliav, 1992; Katz and Bendor, 1986; Katz and Peres, 1996). Hence the title of this study, Solo Mothers in Israel.\nThe solo parent family has become a common pattern over the past generation. Its increasing prevalence reflects changes in women's status in the labor market and changes in family patterns.\nOver the past three decades, the educational level and labor force participation of women have been rising. In European Union countries, for every ten men who joined the labor force in 1970, three women joined in Spain and six in Sweden, whereas by 1997 the number of participating women in those countries had climbed to six and nine, respectively (S. Swirski et al, 2001: Table 1). These changes have given women wider opportunities for autonomy and independence and have decreased the value of marriage as a source of economic security.\nConcurrently, the patterns of spousal relations have been changing: a rising divorce rate (due, among other reasons, to the increasing legitimacy of divorce and greater flexibility in the rules pertaining to it); an increase in the rate of births out of wedlock along with a decrease in the birth rate within marriage; and a decline in the centrality of the institution of marriage, as reflected in fewer and fewer marriages and remarriages after divorce (Larsen, 1998).\nThese processes have facilitated the development of alternative patterns. One such alternative is a one-parent family. Among one-parent families, the most common configuration is a woman who is the solo parent.\nRising Proportion of Solo Parent Families in the West and in Israel\nSolo parent families became common during the last three decades of the twentieth century, particularly in Western countries (Mulroy, 1995, Ch. 2; Duncan and Edwards, 1997; Larsen, 1998; Kiernan, Land, and Lewis, 1998). In the second half of the 1990s, they constituted 25 percent of families in the United States, 19 percent in Great Britain, 18 percent in Australia, 17 percent in Germany, 16 percent in Sweden, and 13 percent in France (Duncan and Edwards, 1997). In Israel, in 2001, 9.9 percent of all families were solo parent families headed by women.\nIn Israel, too, the proportion of solo parents increased significantly over the past three decades: from 4 percent in the 1970s to 8.6 percent in 1995 and 9.9 percent in 2001 (see Table 2). The upturn derives from the same processes as those occurring in the West, including uptrends in rates of divorce (1) and births out of wedlock. (2) In Israel, as in the West, women's educational levels and labor force participation rates have been rising. The proportion of women in the labor force, relative to that of men, climbed from 40 percent in 1970 to 70 percent in 1997 (S. Swirski et al, 2001: Table 1). In Israel, however, there was another important factor in the rising incidence of solo parent families: the arrival of many solo parent families from the former Soviet Union and Ethiopia. Table 2 shows that the most significant increase in the proportion of solo parent families occurred in the 1990s, when nearly one million men and women immigrated to Israel. During that decade, the proportion of solo parent families doubled, from 5 to 10 percent. The largest number of solo parent families came from the the former Soviet Union (Sicron, in Sicron and Leshem, 1998; Poskanzer, 1995; Ben-David, 1996), but many came from Ethiopia. More than one quarter (28 percent) of households of Ethiopian Jews who arrived in the 1980s (in Operation Moses) were headed by solo parents, and most of them (84 percent) were headed by women (Kanizhenski, Estman, et al., in Weil, 1991: 22). Unlike immigrants from the former Soviet Union, who came from a society in which solo parenthood is commonplace, the high proportion of solo parent families from Ethiopia evidently traces to hardships encountered during the move to Israel (Weil, 1991: 44; Schwartzman, 1999: 26; Benita, Noam, and Levi, 1994: 7; King and Efrati, 2002:II).\nAlong with the proportional increase in solo parent families, there has been a change in the characteristics of such families: In the early 1970s, most solo mothers (58.5 percent) were widows (Rotter and Keren-Yaar, 1974: Table B), whereas in the early 2000s most heads of solo parent families (54.8 percent) were divorcees (CBS, Statistical Abstract of Israel 2002, 2000, Table 12:5). (3)\nIsrael is not unique in these respects. In every Western country, without exception, the proportion of widows among solo mothers has fallen and the proportion of divorcees, single women, and separated women has risen (Duncan and Edwards, 1997).\nTable 2 shows the absolute and percent increases in Israel's population of solo parent families between 1975 and 2001.\nSocial Recognition and Economic Self-Sufficiency\nThere are two key issues in regard to solo parent families headed by women.\nThe first concerns social recognition, since solo parent families do not fall within the normative family pattern of one male and one female parent. The question of recognition is important in all configurations of solo parenthood, including families headed by widows (a pattern that has been familiar for years) and families headed by divorcees--a pattern that has become particularly prevalent in recent decade but is still far from normative. (See Katz, 1998; for an up-to-date analysis of the situation in Canada, see Bala and Bromwich, 2002.) However, the question of recognition is especially meaningful in regard to families headed by women who have chosen the solo parent pattern, be they single, separated, or divorcees who do not remarry.\nThe second question concerns solo mothers' ability to support themselves: There is every likelihood that a family that has only one parent, working or not, will have a lower income than a family that has two working parents. This is particularly true for solo parent families headed by women, because on average women's salaries are lower than men's.\nThis study focuses on the second issue--the economic self-sufficiency of solo mothers. Before we tackle the subject, however, we should briefly address the question of social recognition. In Israel, as in other countries around the world, the normative model remains the two-parent family, predominantly the patriarchal family--a two-parent family in which the man is considered the head of household and the chief breadwinner. This model is enshrined in social norms and laws that regulate family patterns including marriage, procreation, parenting, inheritance, taxation, social security, and the like.\nIt is noteworthy in this context that Israel's laws and courts do not recognize solo parent families as full-fledged families in all respects. For example, such families are not eligible to adopt children in Israel--this is still only possible for couples--although they may adopt them abroad. In fact, most Israelis who adopt children abroad today are single or divorced women. Similarly, families that wish to procreate by means of a surrogate mother must be composed of a man and a woman. In respect to artificial insemination, however, the law says nothing about solo mothers and therefore, by inference, does not restrict them in this sphere. (This is not the case in England; see Smart, 1966: 55.) (Most of the details in this paragraph are based on a conversation with Adv. Edith Titonowicz, chief legal advisor for Naamat, Tel Aviv, Nov. 7, 2002.)\nThis study, as stated, focuses on solo parents' ability to support the family unit. Here the key issues are employment and wages.\nIn respect to labor and wages, we use different definitions than those conventionally utilized in socioeconomic discussions. The conventional definition of \"work\" overlooks many activities performed by women during the day, i.e., care of home, children, and elderly members of the family. While work in the \"labor market,\" i.e., outside the home, is performed for wages, caregiving in the home is not recognized as \"work,\" is not remunerated, and is not calculated as part of economic activity (Elson, 2002; Folbre, 1995; Ironmonger, 1996; Gross and Swirski, 2003; B. Swirski, 2002). We will treat caregiving as \"work.\" Accordingly, the distinction used in this study is not between \"work in the labor market\" and \"caregiving\" but between paid and unpaid work.\nWe begin with paid work. As is widely known, the labor market is divided not only by class, religion, or race, but also by gender. In the labor market, men hold the positions defined as the most important and are remunerated more generously than women even when women hold similar positions. Historically, negotiations over wages in industrial enterprises--which involved the establishment of trade unions, the formation of labor parties, and protracted confrontations between labor, on the one hand, and management and state institutions, on the other--have generally focused on men's wages. This is because men have been, and still are, viewed as the chief breadwinners. Since men's wages are considered the main, if not the only, wages, negotiations revolve around setting wages at a level that will \"suffice\" to support an entire family unit. The wages of women--wives of laborers on Industrial Revolution assembly lines and urban middle-class women who, for the most part, joined the labor force in the twentieth...",

        "raw_content": "On November 9, 2018 OSHA published a Final Rule amending the requirements for crane and derrick operator training, certification, and employer evaluation (29 CFR 1926 Subpart CC).\nThe final rule required:\n1. Employers to:\na. train operators as needed to perform assigned crane activities; and\nb. evaluate operators and document successful completion of the evaluations.\n2. Crane operators to:\na. be certified or licensed; and\nb. receive ongoing training as needed to operate new equipment.\nThe deadline for training was December 9, 2018. If you already evaluated your operators prior to Dec. 9, 2018, you do not have to conduct those evaluations again, but you will need to document when the evaluations were completed.\nThe evaluation and documentation requirements become effective on February 7, 2019.\nUnder the new Final Rule, operator certification can be based on crane \u201ctype\u201d or \u201ccrane type and capacity.\u201d This is a change from the 2010 rule \u2013 which required certification based on \u201ccrane type and capacity. \u201c\nOperators who are not yet certified are classified as \u201coperators-in-training.\u201d Employers must provide them with sufficient formal and practical instruction to ensure they have the skills, knowledge, and ability to recognize and avert risk needed to operate their cranes safely.\nOperators-in-training can operate cranes without being certified (subject to certain restrictions), and they must be continuously monitored.

        "raw_content": "Find The Top Cable Providers in My Area\nIf you\u2019ve ever found yourself wondering, \"What cable providers are available in my area?,\" you're far from alone. It doesn\u2019t matter if you just moved to a new town, city, or state; or if you\u2019re just curious to see what other options exist near your long-time home. Many folks long to know which nearby cable service providers can get their cable TV connection setup. And with our help, you\u2019ll be able to quickly and easily compare and select the best cable TV providers in your area.\nWe\u2019re here to assist with everything from getting basic cable for the first time to bringing your television to life with full-blown HDTV programming. And our cable provider partners, like Charter and Cox, have the right cable packages and prices to give you all the cable TV you want.\nSo, simply enter your address in the search bar above and we\u2019ll get you connected with cable TV providers in your area in no time at all.\nThe Best Ways to Compare Cable TV Options\nIt\u2019s hard to figure out how to choose the best TV. When it comes down to it, there are a number of different factors for you to consider when selecting the cable TV provider and package for you. Below, we\u2019ve outlined the big ones and slipped in a few tips as well, so be sure to keep all this in mind as you\u2019re considering the cable TV for your needs.\nPrice: Nowadays, with increased competition from satellite TV and fiber TV, cable TV is becoming an inexpensive choice for television service. This competition has dropped prices for cable service in some areas. It has also increased the number of features available at the same cost, like free HD cable TV programming, in other areas. So, be sure to compare cable TV options to see how far your dollar might go.\nContract Terms and Length: Not only is price important, but be sure to read the fine print on contract lengths and introductory pricing. The first year of service may be a complete bargain, but make sure you\u2019re not locked into a contract for too long. You never know when you may feel the need to change your cable TV service or your provider.\nNumber of TVs/Devices: Depending upon your cable service provider, there may be a single charge for connecting cable TV to your home. Or, there could be a separate charge for every TV or device connected to the cable network. You\u2019ll want to know which is what you\u2019re buying, or what you\u2019re needing, based on the number of TVs you have.\nBundles: Does your preferred cable TV provider also offer internet and home phone in your area? Odds are pretty good that they do. If you\u2019re looking to save a bunch of money while getting a bunch of entertainment services and home utilities connected, then a cable bundle may be the wisest way to work it in your favor.\nNumber, Variety, and Quality of Cable Channels: With the advent of digital TV, basic cable has sort of become the new standard for television viewing. It offers about 20+ channels \u2013 including the main local broadcast stations (like ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS, etc.), as well as education and local government channels. Expanded basic cable packages include roughly 30-50 channels \u2013 all the ones mentioned above, as well as popular networks such as Disney, ESPN, MTV, and Fox News. However, not all channels are available in all markets, so be sure to double check with your provider before signing any contract. Many service providers also offer additional channels a la carte, such as foreign and international channels, sports-centric channels, premium channels (like HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, and Starz), HD cable TV channels for a crisper and more true-to-life viewing experience, and On-Demand viewing options of popular movies and TV series.\nAdd-Ons and Bonuses: Cable companies also offer certain channels in high definition to their customers. And if your television is HDTV-ready, upgrading to high-definition cable and truly experiencing television is easy. Also, look for adding the convenience of a DVR so you can conveniently record \u2013 and never miss \u2013 your favorite shows. And if you lead a life that keeps you on the move, you\u2019ll definitely want to research any TV-on-the-go apps or options that your cable provider may offer.\nHere\u2019s How Cable TV Works\nIf you want your home to have the ability to display cable TV channels, you must first have a TV connection setup. Most folks get their TV signal through a coaxial cable that\u2019s been connected to their homes and hooked into the larger network outside of it. In general, this cable is installed by the providers for homes that are getting the TV service for the first time. However, many apartment complexes and previously-occupied homes already have some sort of physical TV connection established. So, this means that you may be able to get your cable TV established even faster and cheaper. From there, the provider filters certain digital channels and features into your home for your enjoyment based upon the cable TV package you choose.\nA Brief History Lesson to Clear Up the Great Digital TV Conversion\nBack in June 2009, the United States Federal Communications Commission (the FCC) made its nationwide switch to digital TV. This largely wiped out the bunny-eared analog antenna that had kept the country entertained for the past 60 years. In turn, that analog signal was replaced with a digital one that delivered clearer picture and crisper sound to our TV sets. The advanced technology behind the digital signal means it can be compressed and transmitted far better and further than the older one.\nDespite all the worry behind the switch, folks whom had older TVs only needed a simple converter box to receive and display this digital TV signal. And, in preparation for this, any TV set built after March 2007 already had this capability built in. Even better, those folks who already subscribed to cable television services wouldn\u2019t have to do or change a thing at all. Cable TV service providers had already taken care of them long before. Since cable TV stations don\u2019t use the same frequencies that local broadcasters do, the analog-to-digital switch didn't even affect them. And today, nearly every TV station is delivering 100% digital, higher-definition signals into customers\u2019 homes and making television even more enjoyable and entertaining.\nGet the Best Deals on Cable Providers in My Area\nTo take advantage of all the features that cable television services have to offer, simply enter your address in the cable TV search box at the top of the page. Once you do, you can check to see which cable packages are available in your neighborhood, and then sign up online free of charge.\nOur partnerships with local and national cable TV service providers allow us to offer you the best digital cable TV packages available. They also ensure that you\u2019ll get all the features you want at the price your budget can afford.\nOnce you\u2019ve made your selection of a cable provider and package that you like, you'll be able to make any necessary customizations and upgrades to it to fit your viewing needs and budget. There are usually several optional features available, so just select the features you want, along with a connection date, and then checkout. Its super easy, and online set up is even free.

        "title": "Five Tips For Getting The Most Out Of Your Marketing Technology Solutions",
        "raw_content": "By: Dave Lawrence on January 9th, 2018\nCollaboration in the workforce | marketing efficiency | marketing technology | creating positive change in your company | technology based marketing solutions\nThe world of marketing has transformed dramatically in the last ten years or so \u2014 what used to be a linear approach is now a much more complicated, multi-channel beast \u2014 and this has led many businesses to adopt technology-based solutions to their problems. The number of different systems and software-based applications available today is overwhelming, ranging from digital asset management (DAM) and content management systems (CMS) to product information management (PIM).While the popularity of such technology-based solutions is undeniable, there are many businesses and marketing departments that are unknowingly failing to reap all the benefits from what they\u2019ve purchased. What this means is that marketing efforts will likely be compromised and valuable opportunities, missed. Moreover, this often occurs without businesses even being aware.\nThere are five steps that businesses can take into account to ensure they are getting the most they possibly can out of their marketing technology investments.\nWe all know that technology moves at an incredibly fast pace, continually evolving and advancing in line with consumer demands and the latest innovations. Naturally, this means that software-based solutions commonly used by marketers are frequently updated and upgraded to introduce new features and capabilities.\nBut unless businesses are committed to staying up to date, these features can go entirely unnoticed. Many seem to operate with an \u2018if it ain\u2019t broke, don\u2019t fix it\u2019 approach to systems and applications. But on the flip side, it means they have no idea what they\u2019re missing out on, such as additional state-of-the-art technology opportunities. There have been many instances where businesses have considered scrapping a certain system altogether because it is outdated or lacks a feature they\u2019re looking for, only to discover that a simple update can address all of their needs.\nAdopt an internal champion\nMany businesses have found that identifying an \u2018internal champion\u2019 can prove to be incredibly beneficial for two reasons in particular. Firstly, it makes it easier to achieve the goal of maintaining regular updates, mentioned above. This internal champion, who naturally tends to be an individual (or a group of individuals) with a genuine interest in the marketing technology, is responsible for keeping one eye on the latest developments and updating the system as soon as possible to ensure all users are reaping the benefits they should be.\nSecondly, an elected individual who is knowledgeable about what each update includes is much more likely to be able to translate these benefits into a language that all users can understand. Being able to communicate this on a human level is also more likely to drive adoption of the solution in question (more on this further so, kindly keep reading.)\nRemain ahead of the curve\nOnce a business decides to make a significant investment in a new technology-based marketing solution, they will naturally want to make sure that it remains relevant and useful for as long as possible. Of course, staying on top of software and firmware updates is a part of the process, but can also be helpful to create a dedicated development environment, where any new features or updates that a business might like to implement can be tested and experimented with - before they go live to all users.\nThis development environment should effectively act as a sandbox \u2014 users are not interacting with it regularly, but it allows a select few to install and play with specific elements to test their effectiveness. Having a proving ground of this kind can also help to save time and money in the long run, while also keeping any potential frustration from users at bay. With any new features extensively tested before going live, employees should be able to enjoy something that just works.\nAnother huge benefit of this step from a business perspective is that the financial investment required to build a development environment is minimal, and yet the long-term gain can often be significant.\nEncourage solution adoption\nPeople don\u2019t like change \u2014 that\u2019s a well-known fact of life. And, this also applies to change in work processes, so there is always likely to be pushback from users when a business decides to invest in something new. Is this a challenge? Yes! But it is often how the company chooses to deal with this pushback that can determine the overall success of their investment.\nAs mentioned earlier, having an internal champion can help to convert the more skeptical users by communicating the benefits and advantages of the technology in a way that is clear, coherent and more compelling than it would be if they were to read through some release notes directly. The dedicated development environment can also help to drive adoption \u2014 users are much more likely to continue using a specific tool or solution if they are shown how it works before it goes live and they\u2019re forced to get to grips with it.\nPost-launch analysis is key\nIt\u2019s practically impossible to determine how successful the adoption of a specific technology is until it's in use for an extended length of time. Even if a business has decided to invest a significant amount of money into a solution that it feels incredibly confident about, there is never any guarantee that all users will also feel the same way.\nTake note; this is why once the technology in question has gone live and enough time has passed for users to become accustomed to it, it\u2019s vital to check in with these users about their experiences and how they feel about it from their perspective. It is often the case that people will provide valuable constructive criticism and raise important issues that have been thoroughly overlooked, helping the business to make appropriate tweaks \u2014 in a way it is the post-launch equivalent of a dedicated development environment. Once the wagons are in motion and the post-launch analysis has been carried out, businesses can then take this feedback to the third-party systems integrators to help update and further optimize the systems.\nWhen it comes to squeezing as much out of your marketing technology as possible, it\u2019s important to rally the troops together and work collaboratively to make things as smooth and pain-free as possible. Users that express a level of competency around the solution should be taken on-board as internal champions, and the opinions of every single user must be taken into account when it comes to tweaking the solution both pre-launch and post-launch. By keeping the five above steps in mind at all times, your investment will go a lot further than you first thought.\nTo learn more about improving your marketing technology solutions and increasing the efficiency of your processes take a look at our free guide: Future-Proofing Your Digital Asset Management and Creative Production.\nAbout Dave Lawrence\nDave Lawrence is the technical lead at IO Integration in the US Western Region.

Senior leaders of Telangana Pradesh Congress met party president Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi on Tuesday, with newly-elected MLAs and discussed the reasons for the defeat of the organization in the December 7 Telangana assembly elections.\nAICC in-charge, R C Khuntia said that \"Rahul has discussed the party\u2019s performance in Assembly elections and working together to get more Lok Sabha seats in Telangana\". Whether or not the Congress will have an alliance with TDP, the CPI and TJS for the Lok Sabha elections due by May, like it did in the Assembly poll, or go it alone, he said: \"That has not been decided.\"\nNaidu and the TDP had come under sharp attack from TRS leaders in the campaign for the Assembly elections. Khuntia said: \"Very soon we will have a meeting at the national level to take a decision about the strategy on how to go about in Telangana\".\n\"At this moment, we have a good working relationship with TDP at the national level but what would be the strategy at the state level...that has not been decided,\" he said.\nMeanwhile, Khuntia said that Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has been invited to campaign in Telangana. He also said that some Congress leaders, in fact, requested Priyanka and Rahul to contest from Telangana.",

        "title": "The Real Horror Of Jennifer's Body: Toxic Friends",
        "raw_content": "The Real Horror Of Jennifer's Body: Toxic Friends\nWe talked bloodthirsty boy-eating demons with Jennifer's Body director Karyn Kusama and learned that the real terror in the story is the co-dependent toxic relationship between two girls.\nio9: What's new about this horror film, why did it stand out to you?\nKaryn Kusama: The humor comes from Diablo's vision of the world and I felt like the horror came out of the relationship. Which I thought was a really interesting idea, the idea that this toxic friendship could be the emotional foundation of the horror. A lot of times I think we watch horror movies that by default have a female character. But this movie - it's interesting to see that the so-called monster Jennifer is female, as is the heroine.\nI really liked this relationship between the two girls, it's something many people experience. Was this always the foundation of the movie?\nIt was always supposed to be a relationship rooted in the past, rooted in childhood. And the toxic element of it developed between them as a sort of emotional codependence and role playing in which Jennifer always played the Alpha female in control and Needy was always willing to be her tagalong or sidekick and was subservient to her. I think there have been comedies and teen movies that explore that idea. But in this case that relationship is sort of realized into something pretty dark.\nI really can't imagine anyone else playing that Alpha character - was Megan Fox always in mind?\nShe was an element to the movie very very early. Even before the producers came on.\nShe's pretty perfect for the role, how did you help her find her inner bitch for this character?\nWell I'm sure all of us would love it if we could all find our inner bitchiness. She just relished the opportunity to have fun with that, she was very, very funny with that. But I really enjoyed working with her. She was very thoughtful, smart, very prepared. She brought a lot of humor to the role that I wouldn't have necessarily known she could do because that was something she hadn't done in Transformers.\nThere's been this new study out that says women watch more horror movies than men. Do you think that's accurate? What do you think about that?\nI think actually women were probably always going to horror movies, we just weren't measuring it as religiously as we do now. I think it's a human condition to identify with being scared. There is something about the narrative of flight and survival that I think is very compelling for women. I find it very compelling. I don't watch all of the horror that's out there, because one, there's so much of it and two some of it is a little less emotionally engaging for me than others. I think there is something about watching women, well women and men, but often times young people fighting for their lives - it's a very compelling story. It's a way to deposit all of our anxieties about our own life. Particularly if those anxieties are more mundane but they feel like life and death. It's a way to articulate those anxieties in a safe place like a theater.\nAnd this movie's focus on female relationships will probably bring out more female horror fans.\nI feel like there have been plenty of horror movies where the main character is female. A lot of them that I really love. But this is one of those movies where the movie and the horror grows out of the female relationships. And I think that's pretty interesting.\nAnd that relationship is pretty toxic. These two are friends but Jennifer, Megan, really goes after her friend. Can we talk about why you wanted this kind of a dynamic? Why is Jenny so angry with her best friend?\nIt's funny I was just talking about this with Megan the other day in another interview. And she had always approached this character as someone who was jealous of her best friend, Needy. Jealous of the attachments and the relationships that Needy has in her life. And that somehow there was some subconscious desire to take that away from her.\nThey dress very different as well. Small spoiler, at the formal Needy looks very 80s in a big pink dress with bad hair and make up while Jennifer has a lovely gown. Whose idea was this and why?\nDiablo had always written that it was a really bad dress. By the time I was working with the costume designer I had shown her a lot of reference material, a lot of pretty terrible 80s prom dresses. The worse they got the better the look became. I always wanted her hair to be big and poofy and her makeup to be a little over-applied. I think our costume designer nailed it.\nBut why make them so different on the outside too?\nI think the whole point with Needy was that she was an expression of some more 80s sensibility and that everyone else had been more attuned to the fashions of the times. Needy is a little more nostalgic in life, but also a little less tuned in to the relentless [fashion] magazine culture.\nBut Megan really was covered in blood half the time too. And the gore was pretty good.\nThere's a scene where she's literally scooping blood out of the carcass of one of our characters. I really wanted it to look as if she was at a fountain of youth and instead of drinking water, she was drinking blood. So I wanted it to look like she was slurping that blood and drinking it down. We could only get a couple of takes that were working because we had live rats in the scene at the same time which is a whole other absurd nightmare, especially rodents which are not highly trained animals. Meanwhile she's drinking this unholy combination of some kind of stand in for blood and corn syrup so she can ingest it. I felt like by the third take I was waiting for her to just puke into a pail. That scene was pretty painful for her because she was swallowing everything.\nThe side characters in this film really helped ground the movie in reality. Adam Brody was great and seriously disturbing in an off-putting way.\nThe great thing about Adam Brody he manages to keep things very charming and personable so it takes a while to really see the depth of his ambition and psychosis. There's a coldness to his single mindedness once he starts to reveal what his plan is and what he's done to Jennifer. So in an interesting way Jennifer gets to be the monster and he gets to be the villain.\nWhen he looked towards the camera at the character Needy, it gave me chills.\nIt's funny because when we screened it and a lot of those looks generated really big laughs. And I wonder if that's just because people were nervously anticipating what's to come.\nI'd bet it's also because they aren't used to seeing him that way either.\nYeah it's true, you have to get used to that the comedy is tied up with his very very bad intentions.\nJennifer's Body will be out in theaters this Friday.",

        "raw_content": "One voice telling one story. The one-person play harkens back to the storyteller spinning a tale around the campfire. It can be fiction or nonfiction, it can have one character or many (yes, you can have dialogue in a solo performance), it can involve projections and props and pyrotechnics, or it can just be one person standing on a bare stage asking the audience to come with them on a journey. No matter what form it takes, a play for one is a unique piece of theatrical magic for the actor, the audience and the writer. In this workshop, writers will be asked to arrive with a story they want to tell. Facts are optional. Over eight intensive hours together, we will explore different ways to bring this story to life on the page and on our feet. We will play with point of view, with lies and truth and unreliable narrators; we will experiment with body language and props and the use of silence. We will think of character in terms of gestures, impulses and need. Acting skills are definitely not required, though you should be prepared to read your work aloud. This will be a safe space to explore a new way to connect with your reading audience.",

        "raw_content": "Kiddies\u2019 Corner in Accra\nBy Renee Sigel.\nKiddies corner in Accra sounds like the title of a popular children\u2019s TV show; something one could happily watch with toddlers on a Saturday morning, learning ABC songs about foreign and faraway places. It sounds as it always does: a freely expressive haven of childish imagination.\nFor most of us it would be hard to imagine it could be anything else, unless one has encountered iPeace member Liz Busch, one very remarkable English grandmother. Her creation is this special Kids\u2019 Corner, which is very much an oasis for the imagination of children, yet it as far from the magical illusion of television as it can get. Accra, for those who may not be aware, is the Capital of Ghana. Its setting is among the most beautiful of African landscapes and it is home to some of life\u2019s harshest realities, especially for its children.\nHer story is exemplary of remarkable strength, fortitude and courage in the face of the worst kind of personal tragedy and she is a lesson to each of us.\nA car accident left her critically injured and cost the lives of her two sons and her foster child. She spent a very long time recovering both mentally and physically.\nEventually she decided to fulfill a lifetime's dream to travel to Ghana and do something to help the children there. She arrived in February 2006 as a volunteer teacher with the intention of staying for six weeks. Discovering the appalling conditions in which the children learn, i.e. almost no books at school or home, no exercise books or paper, often even forced into sharing a pen, she decided to return and open an Educational Centre and Library. She was back two months later and has been running the Child Development Project - Ghana in Hohoe, in the Volta Region, ever since. (www.cdp-ghana.com)\nShe and those who work there affectionately call the Centre 'Kiddies\u2019 Corner'. It is a remarkable oasis for the 3,000 local village children who lead very difficult lives. Some are too poor to go to school. They often are forced to have to work from 5 a.m. - 9 p.m. to help support their families. At the Centre they are assured of a kind word, a book to read, paper and coloured pencils for a few minutes relaxation, before going back to on the street; selling old clothes or fruit, just so they earn barely enough to fed themselves.\nChildren are raised under severe conditions and are seldom praised, mostly reprimanded and treated abusively by parents so as not to encourage \u2018idleness\u2019. They are unaccustomed to encouragement and open displays of approval and affection. The centre provides a cherished respite from the harsh routine of their day. At the Centre, they relish educational, sporting and recreational materials and facilities. Equally important, the centre is a sanctuary where children come to learn in a peaceful, friendly, supportive and relaxed environment.\n\u2018Kids' Corner\u2019 has now flourished and grown into the main focal point of the children of Hohoe, with a membership of over 3,500 children, aged from 5 - 16, who regularly visit our after-school Education Centre.The Centre houses a library of second-hand books donated from the U.K. and also provides educational games, toys and puzzles.\nSaturday mornings are dedicated to sports and games: footballs, sports clothing and boots, as well as skipping ropes, basketball facilities are their simple treasures. Other weekend favourites include drawing, writing, spelling and dancing competitions.",

        "raw_content": "THIS OPTION HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE OPTIONEE WILL NOT TRANSFER THIS OPTION OR THE UNDERLYING COMMON SHARES UNLESS (I) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION COVERING SUCH OPTION OR SUCH SHARES, AS THE CASE MAY BE, UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (II) LIVE VENTURES INCORPORATED FIRST RECEIVES A LETTER FROM AN ATTORNEY, ACCEPTABLE TO IT, STATING THAT, IN THE OPINION OF THE ATTORNEY, THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND UNDER ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (III) THE TRANSFER IS MADE PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.\nFORM OF NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT\nTHIS STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (the \u201cAgreement\u201d) is made and entered into effective as of November 3, 2016 (the \u201cEffective Date\u201d), by and between Live Ventures Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (\u201cLIVE\u201d), and Rodney Spriggs (the \u201cOptionee\u201d).\n1. Recitals. The Optionee is presently employed, pursuant to the terms of that certain Employment Agreement of even date herewith (the \u201cEmployment Agreement\u201d), by an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of LIVE, i.e., Vintage Stock, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the \u201cSubsidiary\u201d). LIVE desires to provide the Optionee with an incentive to remain in such capacity and to afford the Optionee the opportunity to obtain share ownership in LIVE so that the Optionee may have a significant proprietary interest in LIVE\u2019s success. LIVE therefore hereby grants to the Optionee this non-qualified option to purchase shares of its stock pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, this Agreement.\n2. Shares Subject to Option. As of the Effective Date, LIVE hereby grants to the Optionee the option (\u201cOption\u201d) to purchase one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of LIVE\u2019s common stock (the \u201cOptioned Shares\u201d), at the price set forth in the Paragraph of this Agreement entitled \u201cExercise Price\u201d (the \u201cExercise Price\u201d), subject to the terms and conditions and within the period of time set forth in this Agreement. This Option is intended to be a non-statutory, non-qualified stock option which does not qualify as an \u201cincentive stock option\u201d under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the \u201cCode\u201d).\n3. Term; Expiration. This Agreement and the Option granted hereunder shall expire at 6:00 p.m. Central Time on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date. If all or any portion of this Option is unexercised upon the expiration of this Agreement, then, to that extent, this Option shall be deemed to have been forfeited and of no further force or effect. The Option will expire on the Expiration Date immediately set forth above, or earlier as provided in this Agreement. If the Optionee\u2019s continuous service to the Subsidiary, LIVE, or another affiliate of LIVE is terminated:\n\u00b7 Due to the expiration of the Employment Agreement, the Optionee may exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date thirty (30) days following the Optionee\u2019s termination of Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date\n\u00b7 For Cause or without Good Reason (each as referenced in Section 5(b) of the Employment Agreement), the Option (whether vested or unvested) shall immediately terminate and cease to be exercisable\n\u00b7 Without Cause or Good Reason (each as referenced in Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement), the Optionee may exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date ninety (90) days following the Optionee\u2019s termination of Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date\n\u00b7 Due to death or disability (each as referenced in Section 5(d) of the Employment Agreement), the Optionee or the Optionee\u2019s personal representative and/or beneficiaries, as the case may be) may exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date one year following the Optionee\u2019s termination of Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date\n4. Vesting.\n4.1 Vesting Schedule. Subject to the terms of the Subparagraph in this Agreement entitled \u201cChange in Control,\u201d the Option granted hereunder shall vest as follows: 25% shall vest at the end of the first year following such issuance, with the remaining 75% vesting monthly over the next three years, in each event subject to the Optionee\u2019s continued service as an employee of Subsidiary, LIVE, or another affiliate of LIVE through such dates; provided, that, if Optionee\u2019s employment with Subsidiary, LIVE, or another affiliate of LIVE is terminated without cause by Subsidiary, LIVE, or another affiliate of LIVE, or is terminated by Optionee for Good Reason pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement, then the Option granted hereunder shall become immediately and fully vested, subject to Section 3 of this Agreement. From and after the respective vesting dates and through the expiration hereof, the Option may be fully and immediately exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in respect of such Optioned Shares.\n4.2 Change in Control. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in the Subparagraph of this Agreement entitled \u201cVesting Schedule\u201d immediately above, if at any time prior to full vesting of all of the Optioned Shares and while the Optionee is performing services for the Subsidiary, LIVE, or another affiliate of LIVE, a Change in Control (as that phrase is defined below) in LIVE occurs, Optionee\u2019s grant and right to exercise this Option shall immediately and fully vest and this Option shall immediately be exercisable as to one hundred percent (100%) of the Optioned Shares (or such percentage of the Optioned Shares as may not then have been previously purchased) on the date immediately preceding the consummation of such transaction. For purposes of this Agreement, \u201cChange of Control\u201d shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the consummation of any transaction after the Effective Date in which any person or entity or group of related persons and/or entities becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities representing more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the combined voting power of LIVE\u2019s then-outstanding voting securities, or (ii) a majority of the seats (other than vacant seats) on the board of directors or other governing body of LIVE shall at any time be occupied by persons other than those persons who are members of the board of directors on the Effective Date, or (iii) any merger (other than a merger in which LIVE is the survivor and there is no change of control pursuant to (i) or (ii) of this sentence), reorganization, consolidation, liquidation, winding-up, or dissolution of LIVE or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets.\n5. Exercise Price. Subject to the provisions of the Paragraph in this Agreement entitled \u201cVesting\u201d and for adjustment in the manner provided below, the exercise price for each Optioned Share shall be on and 81/100ths US Dollars ($1.81).\n6. Method of Exercise. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice identifying the number of Optioned Shares as to which this Option is then being exercised has been provided to LIVE in accordance with the terms of this Option and full payment for the Optioned Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by LIVE. Upon the exercise of this Option in whole or in part and payment of the Exercise Price in the manner provided by this Agreement, LIVE shall, as soon thereafter as practicable, deliver to the Optionee a certificate or certificates for the shares purchased or LIVE\u2019s transfer agent shall record such share ownership in \u201cbook entry\u201d format. The Exercise Price for the Optioned Shares to be purchased upon the exercise of the Option may be paid in same-day, good funds.\n7. Withholding. LIVE may, in its discretion, require that the Optionee pay to it at or after the time of the exercise of any portion of this Option any such additional amount as LIVE deems necessary, in the exercise of its good faith reasonable discretion, to satisfy its liability to withhold federal, state, or local income tax or any other tax incurred by reason of the exercise of this Option. Such shares shall be valued on the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.\n8. Adjustment of Optioned Shares. In the event that there is any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of common stock or other securities of LIVE, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase common stock or other securities of LIVE, or other similar corporate transaction or events that affect the common stock of LIVE such that an adjustment is necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available pursuant to this Option, then the number of unexercised Optioned Shares subject to this Option and the exercise price per share of such Optioned Shares shall be proportionately adjusted to prevent such dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available pursuant to this Option.\n9. Option Non-Transferable. This Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and this Option shall be exercisable during the Optionee\u2019s lifetime only by the Optionee or his guardian or legal representative. Any purported assignment of this Option, or of any right or privilege conferred hereunder, contrary to the provisions hereof shall be null and void.\n10. Laws and Regulations. No shares of common stock shall be issued under this Option unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance of such shares have been complied with to the satisfaction of LIVE in the exercise of its reasonable discretion.\n11. Rights in Stock Before Issuance and Delivery. The Optionee shall not be entitled to the privileges of stock ownership in respect of any shares issuable upon exercise of this Option, unless and until such shares have been issued to the Optionee by LIVE. Except as provided in this Agreement, no adjustment shall be made in the number of shares of common stock issued to the Optionee or in any other rights of the Optionee upon exercise of this Option by reason of any dividend (other than a stock dividend), distribution, or other right granted to LIVE\u2019s stockholders for which the record date is prior to the date of exercise of this Option.\n12. Tax Consequences.\n12.1 Section 409A. This Option is intended to meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. If the Option contained in this Agreement is determined to be taxable to the Optionee and/or to LIVE, then LIVE, after consultation with the Optionee, shall have the authority to adopt, prospectively or retroactively, such amendments to this Agreement that LIVE determines in its reasonable discretion to be appropriate to: (i) exempt the transactions contemplated under this Agreement from Section 409A; (ii) make this Agreement comply with the requirements of Section 409A; or (iii) avoid more generally the adverse tax consequences of Section 409A as it applies to this Agreement.\n12.2 Other Tax Consequences. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Optionee acknowledges that LIVE has not made any representations or warranties to the Optionee with respect to the tax consequences related to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and the Optionee is in no manner relying on LIVE or its representatives for an assessment of such tax consequences. The Optionee acknowledges that (i) there may be adverse tax consequences upon acquisition or disposition of this Option or the Shares subject to this Option, (ii) LIVE has no responsibility to the Optionee to ensure any particular tax result, and (iii) the Optionee should consult his own tax advisor prior to the acquisition, exercise, or disposition of this Option and the underlying Shares with regard the particular tax treatment of this Option as it relates to the Optionee.\n13.1 Agreement Binding. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties, their legal representatives, and permitted successors and assigns.\n13.2 Entire Agreement.

Except to the extent specifically set forth herein, this Agreement does not supersede or amend any existing agreement, between the Optionee and LIVE. No addition to or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Optionee or LIVE unless made in writing and signed by both the Optionee and LIVE.\n13.3 Notice.

        "title": "Theodor Mommsen History of Rome - The Revolution Page 38",
        "raw_content": "As early as 622 the consul of that year, Publius Popillius, the same who directed the prosecutions of the adherents of Tiberius Gracchus, recorded on a public monument that he was \"the first who had turned the shepherds out of the domains and installed farmers in their stead\"; and tradition otherwise affirms that the distribution extended over all Italy, and that in the formerly existing communities the number of farms was everywhere augmented--for it was the design of the Sempronian agrarian law to elevate the farmer- class not by the founding of new communities, but by the strengthening of those already in existence. The extent and the comprehensive effect of these distributions are attested by the numerous arrangements in the Roman art of land-measuring that go back to the Gracchan assignations of land; for instance, a due placing of boundary-stones so as to obviate future mistakes appears to have been first called into existence by the Gracchan courts for demarcation and the land- distributions. But the numbers on the burgess-rolls give the clearest evidence. The census, which was published in 623 and actually took place probably in the beginning of 622, yielded not more than 319,000 burgesses capable of bearing arms, whereas six years afterwards (629) in place of the previous falling-off(2) the number rises to 395,000, that is 76,000 of an increase--beyond all doubt solely in consequence of what the allotment-commission did for the Roman burgesses. Whether it multiplied the farms among the Italians in the same proportion maybe doubted; at any rate what it did accomplish yielded a great and beneficent result. It is true that this result was not achieved without various violations of respectable interests and existing rights. The allotment-commission, composed of the most decided partisans, and absolute judge in its own cause, proceeded with its labours in a reckless and even tumultuary fashion; public notices summoned every one, who was able, to give information regarding the extent of the domain-lands; the old land-registers were inexorably referred to, and not only was occupation new and old revoked without distinction, but in various cases real private property, as to which the holder was unable satisfactorily to prove his tenure, was included in the confiscation. Loud and for the most part well founded as were the complaints, the senate allowed the distributors to pursue their course; it was clear that, if the domain question was to be settled at all, the matter could not be carried through without such unceremonious vigour of action.\nIts Suspension By Scipio Aemilianus\nBut this acquiescence had its limit. The Italian domain-land was not solely in the hands of Roman burgesses; large tracts of it had been assigned in exclusive usufruct to particular allied communities by decrees of the people or senate, and other portions had been occupied with or without permission by Latin burgesses. The allotment- commission at length attacked these possessions also. The resumption of the portions simply occupied by non-burgesses was no doubt allowable in formal law, and not less presumably the resumption of the domain-land handed over by decrees of the senate or even by resolutions of the burgesses to the Italian communities, since thereby the state by no means renounced its ownership and to all appearance gave its grants to communities, just as to private persons, subject to revocation. But the complaints of these allied or subject communities, that Rome did not keep the settlements that were in force, could not be simply disregarded like the complaints of the Roman citizens injured by the action of the commissioners. Legally the former might be no better founded than the latter; but, while in the latter case the matter at stake was the private interests of members of the state, in reference to the Latin possessions the question arose, whether it was politically right to give fresh offence to communities so important in a military point of view and already so greatly estranged from Rome by numerous disabilities de jure and de facto(3) through this keenly-felt injury to their material interests. The decision lay in the hands of the middle party; it was that party which after the fall of Gracchus had, in league with his adherents, protected reform against the oligarchy, and it alone was now able in concert with the oligarchy to set a limit to reform. The Latins resorted personally to the most prominent man of this party, Scipio Aemilianus, with a request that he would protect their rights. He promised to do so; and mainly through his influence,(4) in 625, a decree of the people withdrew from the commission its jurisdiction, and remitted the decision respecting what were domanial and what private possessions to the censors and, as proxies for them, the consuls, to whom according to the general principles of law it pertained. This was simply a suspension of further domain-distribution under a mild form. The consul Tuditanus, by no means Gracchan in his views and little inclined to occupy himself with the difficult task of agrarian definition, embraced the opportunity of going off to the Illyrian army and leaving the duty entrusted to him unfulfilled. The allotment-commission no doubt continued to subsist, but, as the judicial regulation of the domain-land was at a standstill, it was compelled to remain inactive.\nAssassination Of Aemilianus\nThe reform-party was deeply indignant. Even men like Publius Mucius and Quintus Metellus disapproved of the intervention of Scipio. Other circles were not content with expressing disapproval. Scipio had announced for one of the following days an address respecting the relations of the Latins; on the morning of that day he was found dead in his bed. He was but fifty-six years of age, and in full health and vigour; he had spoken in public the day before, and then in the evening had retired earlier than usual to his bedchamber with a view to prepare the outline of his speech for the following day.",

        "raw_content": "Many of us don\u2019t believe it, but rest and relaxation actually increases overall productivity. The list of issues caused by our inability to slow down is quite extensive. So here are a few tips:\nGet some sleep. Laura Stack has a fantastic blog post on how getting more sleep actually increases overall productivity. If you sleep more, you will get more done! When we sleep, we allow our subconscious time to address our stresses, and we are about to better handle them in the morning. That\u2019s why when you are facing tough issues, it\u2019s always good to sleep on it!\nTake time to reflect. Most of the self-made, successful people I have read about take time to reflect on their daily activities. A lot of them journal (such as Dale Carnegie and John C. Maxwell) as a way to reflect more effectively. Taking time to break away from technology can be very refreshing. This time allows us to really dig into our inner-self and allows us the opportunity to make strategic decisions about who we want to be and where we want to go. It\u2019s also very effective at helping us spot obstacles before they become critical. I encourage you to take time daily to reflect.\nTake a day off. I saw a great tweet on Twitter: \u201cIf you can\u2019t get it done in six days, then you aren\u2019t doing it right.\u201d Regardless of your religious beliefs, I think there is something to be said for the creation story in Genesis. God made the earth in six days, and on the seventh He rested and commanded us to rest as well. If we fill our lives up day in and day out, we will eventually burn out. A day off from chores, work, and the ceaseless demands allows us the strength to take on the rest of the week.\nTake a vacation. That means, disconnect from work! This is a big problem because technology makes checking in at work so accessible. Additionally, there is a generational shift; millennials are melding work and home lives into one. Nevertheless, we need to be allowed to cut the ties at work and take a break. I would propose that most of us have difficulty doing this either because we think we are so important that work can\u2019t live without us, or we have done a poor job training other leaders within our organization that can manage things while we are gone. Whether you are a CEO or are self-employed, there really isn\u2019t anything that can\u2019t wait a few days for you to take a break. If we are honest with ourselves, we can admit most of us are not in industries where decisions happen overnight and are irreversible.\nIncrease your effectiveness, and help out your long-term growth and development. Take a break, enjoy life. What\u2019s the point of being successful if you can\u2019t enjoy the best parts of life (which, in case you didn\u2019t know, don\u2019t happen at work)?\nproductivity, time management, work-life balance\n\u2190 6 Tips to Control Your E-Mail Instead of Letting It Control You\nWhy Are We Here: The Importance of Communicating Project and Team Purpose \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Keep an eye out for open source\nFebruary 2, 2018 Jonathan Marsh\n\u00a9 Shutterstock / Lucky Team Studio\nOpen source is clearly established in mainstream enterprises. But just because it has achieved this position doesn\u2019t mean we should rest easy. In this article, Jonathan Marsh explains why it\u2019s important to keep an eye on open source technologies.\nA decade ago, we talked a lot more about open source as a major disruptive force in enterprise software. About four times more than we do today, according to a Google Trends search on the term \u201copen source\u201d:\nWhy the drop? Is open source only a quarter as relevant today? I don\u2019t think so. I believe there are natural reasons why open source is talked about less frequently today, but also some worrying trends as attention declines.\nWhy we aren\u2019t talking about open source so much these days\nFirst, the good news: Open source is clearly well established in mainstream enterprises. There is little doubt that web-scale architectures are built largely on open source technologies. Linux is a clear leader on the operating system side. Docker, Kubernetes, OpenStack and others are leaders in providing scalable compute infrastructure. Big data technologies have been led by open source projects, such as Apache Hadoop, Apache Spark, and Apache Cassandra. Blockchain is emerging as an open-source-led innovation space. Across all parts of the enterprise stack, there are widely adopted and battle-tested open source options.\nPerhaps one reason we aren\u2019t talking about open source so much these days is that it\u2019s become so pervasive. Most enterprises would likely describe their open source use on the \u201cplateau of productivity\u201d phase of Gartner\u2019s hype cycle.\nHowever, lack of attention leads to a downside as well. It makes it easier to forget what a radical value change open source introduced. These values include the ability to:\nRetain ultimate control of your future, with the unrestricted ability to modify, derive, and evolve the software. In the era of digital transformation, every company becomes a software company, and control over your software evolution is core to maintaining control over your company\u2019s competitive edge.\nProperly price code in a high-supply market, which establishes a new level of competition in an industry with historically exorbitant costs.\nEase adoption with standard royalty-free licensing, allowing the technical cycle of evaluation, development, and deployment to be independent of any commercial licensing and agreement cycle.\nEncourage the development and wide availability of skills, especially grounded in the academic community.\nReduce the power of a vendor to lock in customers to a cycle of commercial and technology changes that may not align with a user\u2019s best interests.\nWith less attention paid to the details of open source, some software vendors have been able to get a little sloppy with these core values and lure customers into gradually compromising them. Here are some of the more common lures enterprises should be mindful of.\nSEE ALSO: Why enterprises are flocking to open source\nEnterprise versions\nMany vendors adopt the mantle of open source and promote a so-called \u201ccommunity version\u201d that contains core product features under an open source license. This appears to customers to represent openness, but for the vendor, it serves a more limited function as a free trial mechanism. Often, advanced features and support services, which are indispensable for serious enterprise use, are included only for a version with a commercial license. The result is that customers are subtly redirected back into the proprietary license model they sought to escape.\nThe speed and ease of adoption at a low entry cost typical of public cloud services suggest that it has similar values as open source. Plus, they let you outsource operational details and the difficult architecture issues involving scalability and continuity. Cloud services generally use a lot of open source under the covers, so they can appear irresistible.\nBut as a whole, cloud systems rely on the economies of scale possible by imposing a \u201cone size fits all\u201d approach. This, along with hiding the technical and operational details, limits your ability to evolve and customize the system. You surrender control of and access to valuable data and metadata about the system that could be a source of competitive advantage and drive innovation. Most cloud services cannot be easily replicated in another environment, so migrating between clouds usually involves a complete rewrite. Clouds become a walled proprietary ecosystem resistant to both evolution and escape.\nThe unicorn effect \u2014 Building a company committed to open source is challenging!\nSometimes customers are enticed by the perception of industry momentum associated with unicorn valuations. The allure of apparent momentum can obscure the compromises that rapid marketing-led growth can make to pure open source values. Building a company uncompromisingly committed to open source is challenging! You have to recognize and even celebrate that some portion of your market will not pay for product support and services. You have to invest heavily in innovation, create compelling opportunities for monetization around instead of within the product, and adopt new marketing and sales approaches. You have to convince investors that you can do all this while generating a healthy return on investment.\nMany investors will naturally be nostalgic for the days when proprietary intellectual property guaranteed lock-in and an \u201ceasy button\u201d to generate outsize returns. Customers of these vendors should be mindful that unicorn valuations can drive an urgency for short-term revenue growth, poorly aligned with the customer\u2019s goal of building long-term value through iterative innovation supported by open source values.\nSEE ALSO: \u201cThe Apache Way\u201d \u2014 Open source done well\nClearly, temptations abound for vendors to undermine their commitment to open source, and to do their best to downplay these values.\nThis isn\u2019t to say that all commercial open source offerings are antithetical to open source values. These values are not compromised when paired with additional value-added services available at reasonable fees. For instance, enterprise-grade support services; product maintenance, including constant vulnerability monitoring and remediation; and expertise in the form of consulting services of all types\u2014along with operational and hosting services\u2014all provide value without compromising the purity of the open source ecosystem they support. Even certain cloud services, when based fully and transparently on open source and supported by well-defined mechanisms for migrating to a non-commercial open source deployment, can be a solution consistent with an enterprise\u2019s open source strategy.\nOpen source\u2019s pervasiveness is a remarkable achievement, representing a true paradigm shift in software innovation and adoption. As the novelty wears off, it\u2019s harder to notice erosion of the values. It\u2019s our responsibility as open source consumers and community members to be mindful of\u2014and demand for our organizations\u2014the unadulterated values that have led to the incredible success of open source in the enterprise.\nThat\u2019s something worth talking about, and even more importantly, working towards.\nJonathan Marsh is the vice president of strategy and IoT at WSO2.\nHe has held a range of strategy, business and technical roles within WSO2, Microsoft and other technology firms, and has contributed to open source and open standards including serving on working groups related to XML and web services within the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) international standards organization.",

An open letter signed by over 250 members of the Jewish Voice for Peace Academic Advisory Council asks the U.S. State Department to revise its definition of anti-Semitism in order to prevent the charge of anti-Semitism from being misused to silence critics of Israel.\nIn light of recent high-profile stories that have conflated the debates over Israel politics on campus with reports of rising anti-Semitism, the letter asserts the crucial need to distinguish criticism of the state of Israel from real anti-Semitism.\nIn particular, the letter takes issue with provisions in the U.S. State Department definition of anti-Semitism that refer to \u201cdemonizing,\u201d \u201cdelegitimizing,\u201d and \u201capplying a double-standard to the state of Israel.\u201d As Simona Sharoni, an Israeli-American professor of Gender and Women\u2019s Studies at SUNY Plattsburgh, noted\nSuch prohibitions are so vague that they could be, and have been, construed to silence any criticism of Israeli policies.\nAccording to Palestine Solidarity Legal Support, which documents attempts to silence activists for Palestinian rights, 60 such incidents have taken place on U.S. campuses in the first four months of 2015.\nCurrently, legislation that may pass through the California State Legislature this week also aims to codify the problematic State Department definition into law. Anti-Palestinian activists intend this law to be used to silence supporters of the movement to hold Israel accountable for its treatment of Palestinians.\nNotable academics who signed the letter include: Rabab Abdulhadi (San Francisco State University), Joel Beinin (Stanford University, Former President of the Middle East Studies Association of North America), Karen Brodkin (UCLA), Judith Butler (UC Berkeley), Lisa Duggan (NYU, President of the American Studies Association), Richard Falk (Princeton University, Former UN Special Rapporteur on Palestinian Rights), Katherine Franke (Columbia University), Neve Gordon (Ben Gurion University), Amy Kaplan (University of Pennsylvania), Zachary Lockman (NYU), Ian Lustick (University of Pennsylvania), John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago), Chandra Talpade Mohanty (Syracuse University), Joan Nestle, James Schamus (Columbia University), Sarah Schulman (City University of New York), and Joan Scott (Princeton University).\nA petition signed by over 15,800 Jewish Voice for Peace supporters also circulated in support of the letter.\nThe following is the text of the letter, and a full list of signatories is available on request.\nDear U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism Ira Forman, and Ambassador at Large for the Office of International Religious Freedom David Saperstein,\nAs academics committed to addressing anti-Semitism and other forms of oppression, we oppose ongoing efforts to silence legitimate criticism of the state of Israel by codifying its inclusion in the definition of anti-Semitism.\nSeveral resolutions at the state (1) and campus (2) levels in California do just that by using a problematic State Department definition of anti-Semitism.\nThe so-called \u201cState Department definition\u201d includes clauses about \u201cdemonizing,\u201d \u201cdelegitimizing,\u201d and \u201capplying a double-standard to the state of Israel,\u201d prohibitions that are so vague that they could be, and have been, construed to silence any criticism of Israeli policies.\nThese clauses were taken from the \u201cWorking European Union Monitoring Centre definition\u201d which has been widely criticized and was removed (3) as a working definition by the European body in 2013. This definition has limited legal authority (4) in the US because, if implemented, would unconstitutionally restrict freedom of speech. Further, this overbroad definition diminishes the ability to identify and address incidents of true anti-Semitism when they do occur.\nAs Jews and allies, we ask that the US State Department revise its definition of anti-Semitism to reflect its commitment to opposing hate and discrimination without curtailing constitutionally protected freedom of speech.\nSigned by over 250 members of the Jewish Voice for Peace Academic Advisory Council\n1) Text of Sacramento legislation.\n2) UCLA resolution, Jewish Voice for Peace statement.\n3) Times of Israel, EU drops its working definition of anti-Semitism.\n4) Palestine Legal FAQ on State Department Definition of Anti-Semitism.",

[AD]\nFern Mallis says the most important advice she has for anyone interested in working in fashion is to be nice, because \"you never know where anyone will end up in this business.\" [NYTimes]\nAlexander Wang, who currently has just one store, in New York City, is planning to open 14 more by the end of 2012. All will be in Asia. Wang says that when he was growing up in the U.S., his Shanghai-based mother foreshadowed the development of his business. \"My mom was the first to tell me, 10, 15 years ago: \u2018China, one day, is going to be the next fashion capital.' At that time, I was like, \u2018Mom, you're just trying to get me to move here with you!' But then, I saw the progression.\" [WWD]\nRejoice, lovers of pretty, feminine designer Jenny Packham (and/or people who envy Kate Middleton's style): Packham is launching a collaoration with U.K. mass retailer Debenhams in April, which will include dresses priced at \u00a385 to \u00a3160. [Daily Mail]\nJames Franco directed some ads for 7 For All Mankind jeans. \"I guess you could say it's a vintage 1970's California dreamy feel,\" says the actor. \"The movies that I cut together have a lot of weird double exposures and super- imposed images over other images, so it's a real, I guess you could say, trip.\" [WWD]\nObligatory tranche of Model Alliance-related news:\nFor the fall 2012 season specifically, the alliance has introduced a backstage privacy policy, implemented a system to anonymously counsel models on workplace abuse and drafted a models' bill of rights. \"In this industry, you will be pressured into things you had never thought of,\" Rocha said toward the end of the party. \"Either you will just allow it or you will stand firm. And that's why I really wanted to be part of this, because this is something bigger. This is about our rights as human beings, as women and men.\"\n[Disclosure: this writer sits on the Model Alliance board.] [WWD]\nThe Cut's Shakthi Jothianandan interviewed Shalom Harlow at the Model Alliance launch:\n\"The issue of an underage girl working without any kind of mentoring or chaperoning is really critical, because at that age you're still learning boundaries, you're still learning how to stand in your right and say no,\" said [Shalom] Harlow. She knows from experience: \"It took tremendous will for me to say, \u2018No, I'm not going to walk down the runway naked, even though it's my first time doing a show for you, and you're threatening to cancel me, and you're this huge designer I've seen on TV my whole life, and I'm standing up to you and I'm 16 years old.'\"\n[The Cut]\n29-year-old [Sara] Ziff knows something about how models are treated. She's spent more than half of her life working as a model and in that time says, \"It just became more and more evident to me that this was a wonderful industry filled with strong, powerful, creative women but which lacked any regulation\u2013and so was putting very young girls, often children, in compromising situations.\" She learned a lot more about the compromising situations models find themselves in\u2013facing sexual harassment, in severe debt to their agencies due to lack of financial transparency, alone and vulnerable and often without a chaperone\u2013while documenting the plight of other models for her documentary, Picture Me, which debuted in 2010. Fordham Law professor Susan Scafidi, who heads up Fordham's Fashion Law Institute, saw a screening and wanted to help. So did Jezebel's fashion writer (and former model herself), Jenna Sauers. And so the wheels for the Model Alliance were set in motion.\n[Fashionista]\nStyleite:\n\"Models in the U.S. lack basic workplace protections,\" Ziff explains with the vigor you'd expect of a community organizer in the streets, not one in a sparkly dress and stilettos. \"Generally we're considered independent contractors, which basically means that the rule of law in terms of workplace standards does not exist.\" The organization hasn't fought the government yet, but they have gotten the recognition and support of the CFDA and Vogue. It's a not-so-humble start for sure.\nModel Marihenny Rivera Pasible has some advice for new faces: \"Don't get your hopes up. Last season I went to the same client five times. The day of the show, I was still waiting for the e-mail with the call time. Nothing. It broke my heart. Now I tell my agent I only want to know about confirmations, not options.\" [WWD]\nOh, by the way? A few years ago, when Karolina Kurkova put on a little weight and people on the Internet started making fun of her for being \"fat\"? It was because of a thyroid condition. \"I was 24 and going through menopause \u2014 that was one of my side effects,\" she said yesterday at a CFDA Health Initiative event. \"I thought I was going crazy. I was having panic attacks every minute and I didn't know what was happening.\" [The Cut]\nThe Telegraph believes it has identified the 20 richest supermodels. Unsurprisingly, Gisele B\u00fcndchen (Victoria's Secret), Tyra Banks (everything), and Christie Brinkley (real estate) top the list. [Telegraph]\nAnna Wintour held another Obama fundraiser with Karolina Kurkova, Scarlett Johansson, and Solange Knowles. [The Cut]\nIn other news sartorio-political, Joe Biden's nephew is going to DJ a fashion party tonight. [P6]\nFamous face of the '60s Penelope Tree makes a return to modeling in the new Barneys catalog. [WWD]\nNaomi Campbell says she would never call herself a supermodel. \"I would never call myself that. I don't have any superhuman powers.\" This has been an important update on Naomi Campbell's self-identification. [People]\nKanye West will be showing at this coming Paris fashion week, again. [WWD]\nRalph Lauren's profits rose 0.4% during the last quarter over the same period last year. Sales overall rose over 17%, but higher production costs ate into that jump. [WWD]\nIf you've ever wondered about the man behind BryanBoy \u2014 the story of who he is, where he came from, and how we was able to afford all those handbags \u2014 the Observer profiles him for this week's cover. The piece was written by, well, me. But don't read it because of that, read it because how could you not click through after this tantalizing intro:\nWhile Bryan has the rare quality of appearing to offer total, unvarnished honesty, his blog readers \u2014 and even many of his friends \u2014 are privy to surprisingly little information about him. He rarely mentions his family, and never by name. BryanBoy will tell his readers about discovering he was gay at age 12 when he had feelings for a classmate called Emanuel, but he will not post any pictures of or give even a first name for the boyfriend he has been dating since 2010. (He is a Swedish commercial banker, and he is said by those who have met him to be a nice man who guards his privacy closely.) BryanBoy will scan and post the results of an HIV test (negative) along with a safe-sex message, but he's never mentioned his parents' professions. BryanBoy will live-tweet a threesome (in 2010, he took the time to mention that his partners were wearing Lanvin Homme and Damir Doma, respectively), he will even tweet about his bowel movements, but he will not talk about where he grew up.\n\"He has the most entertaining Twitter account of anybody that I follow,\" said [Isaac] Hindin-Miller. \"But no, I don't know what his parents do. I guess you don't interrogate your friends.\"\n\"He writes about everything,\" said [Alex] Gilvarry. \"But I really don't know anything about him.\"\nSo, who is BryanBoy?\nAs with many mythologies of self, there is an alter ego involved.\n[NYObs]",

        "raw_content": "Obama, Sovereignty, Pirates, the U.N.\nAs a U.S. Naval Officer for more than 20 years, I was taught to never give up one inch of soveriegn U.S. territory or freedom. \u201cTerritory\u201d was always extended to any U.S. flagged vessel and certainly to any U.S. Embassy: both were always legally protected as \u201cU.S. soil.\u201d\nJimmy Carter gave some of this legal protection away by allowing the U.S. Embassy in Iran to be taken by riotous thugs. And today it seems that President Obama will follow suit with the thugs of Somalia.\nHere we have maybe dozens of armed, stateless men \u201ctaking on\u201d the U.S. and perhaps \u201cwinning.\u201d\nIn Thailand a similar situation is unfolding: hundreds and perhaps just a few thousand of unhappy rioters are disrupting the business of state and the work of an international organization: ASEAN.\nAn anti-government protester pleads with Thai soldiers not to use violence against Thai\nPresident Obama has suggested that the Unted States become more global and more international and has said the United Nations should play a greater role in our thinking.\nBut this raises the issue of sovereignity and how important we thaink that is.\nToday the United Nations stands with only a few harsh words between it and a nuclear and long-range missile armed North Korea and Iran. Many of the smaller countries in the U.N. applaud North Korea and Iran just as thy applaud pirates \u201ctaking on\u201d the United States.\nIs this the sate of affairs we really want? Is this in the best onterest of \u2026. whom?\nLetter to the Editor from The Washington Times\nFor the first time in many decades, pirates have attacked and seized a U.S.-flagged ship on the high seas. This, in case anyone doesn\u2019t know, constitutes an attack on the United States.\nIn years past, this would have prompted a strong counterattack, like sending the Marines to the shores of Tripoli. Yet, when asked about this outrageous transgression against America, President Obama simply declined comment on the matter, as if to dismiss the attack as an insignificant incident \u2013 no matter that, at the time, the captain of the ship remained a hostage of lawless pirates.\nSecretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton made up for Mr. Obama\u2019s lack of words, but what she said was not just startling; it was shocking. She declared that the \u201cworld must come together to end the scourge of piracy.\u201d Does this mean that the once-mighty United States is incapable of striking back and instead needs the \u201cworld\u201d to protect it from acts of piracy?\nAnother thing: Mrs. Clinton unequivocally called this unwarranted attack on the United States of America \u201ccriminal activity,\u201d as if to relegate the piracy to the level of a meager criminal offense. Adding insult to injury, she laughed off the incident with one of her patented cackles.\nSomebody should inform Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama that this act of piracy, like others through the centuries, is an act of terrorism by enemy combatants and should be treated as such. Unfortunately, in light of Mrs. Clinton\u2019s remarks, it appears that our government has come full circle to the pre-Sept. 11 mentality of equating terrorism with petty crimes. If George W. Bush were still president, these motley pirates who seized the American ship most likely would be shaking hands with Allah.\nHARRISON E. MCCANDLISH\nAbhisit Vejjajiva, the prime minister of Thailand, has declared a state of emergency in the capital Bangkok, with troops firing shots into the air in an attempt to control anti-government protesters, some of whom stormed the country\u2019s interior ministry.\nSee the Telegraph (UK):\nhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnew\ns/asia/thailand/5144116/State-of-emergen\ncy-declared-in-Thailand.html\nPosted in news, North Korea, Obama, pirates, politics, Somalia, terrorism, Thailand, United Nations | Leave a Comment \u00bb",

        "title": "Learning Center for Consumers about stopping debt collection harassment under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA)",
        "raw_content": "The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is an important consumer law that is a part of the Consumer Credit Protection Act. It protects consumers from unfair, deceptive and abusive debt collectors and collection harassment. Among other things, the FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from harassing and abusing a consumer, reporting inaccurate information about a debt, suing a consumer after the statute of limitations has expired, and contacting most third parties such as neighbors. In addition, the FDCPA gives the consumer the right to demand that the debt collector provide verification of a debt (called validation) and cease contact if such a demand is made properly by the consumer. If a consumer proves that a debt collector violated the law, the FDPCA provides that a consumer may recover statutory damages up to $1000, as well as any actual damages.\n\u00a7 1692. What Congress Found in Passing the Law\nThis is exactly what Congress found was going on in the collection industry which caused it to pass the FDCPA:\n(a) Abusive practices\n\u00a7 1692a. Definitions\u2014The following are the definitions for the terms found in the FDCPA\n(2) The term \u201ccommunication\u201d means the conveying of information regarding a debt directly or indirectly to any person through any medium.\n(4) The term \u201ccreditor\u201d means any person who offers or extends credit creating a debt or to whom a debt is owed, but such term does not include any person to the extent that he receives an assignment or transfer of a debt in default solely for the purpose of facilitating collection of such debt for another.\n(6) The term \u201cdebt collector\u201d means any person who uses any instrumentality of interstate commerce or the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the collection of any debts, or who regularly collects or attempts to collect, directly or indirectly, debts owed or due or asserted to be owed or due another. Notwithstanding the exclusion provided by clause (F) of the last sentence of this paragraph, the term includes any creditor who, in the process of collecting his own debts, uses any name other than his own which would indicate that a third person is collecting or attempting to collect such debts. For the purpose of section 1692f(6) of this title, such term also includes any person who uses any instrumentality of interstate commerce or the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the enforcement of security interests. The term does not include\u2013\n(7) The term \u201clocation information\u201d means a consumer\u2019s place of abode and his telephone number at such place, or his place of employment.\n(8) The term \u201cState\u201d means any State, territory, or possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or any political subdivision of any of the foregoing.\n\u00a7 1692b. Acquisition of location information\u2014The FDCPA limits the contacts that a debt collector can have with third parties about a consumer\u2019s debt. One of the exceptions is when the debt collector is just looking for information about where the consumer is located. But the FDCPA is very specific as to what the debt collector can and cannot say in such a situation. Here is what the law says:\nAny debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall\u2013\n(6) after the debt collector knows the consumer is represented by an attorney with regard to the subject debt and has knowledge of, or can readily ascertain, such attorney\u2019s name and address, not communicate with any person other than that attorney, unless the attorney fails to respond within a reasonable period of time to communication from the debt collector.\n\u00a7 1692c. Communication in connection with debt collection\u2014The FDCPA limits what types of communications a debt collector can and cannot have with a consumer.\n(a) Communication with the consumer generally\nWithout the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, a debt collector may not communicate with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt\u2013\n(1) at any unusual time or place or a time or place known or which should be known to be inconvenient to the consumer. In the absence of knowledge of circumstances to the contrary, a debt collector shall assume that the convenient time for communicating with a consumer is after 8 o\u2019clock antemeridian and before 9 o\u2019clock postmeridian, local time at the consumer\u2019s location; Example: Calling too early or too late\n(2) if the debt collector knows the consumer is represented by an attorney with respect to such debt and has knowledge of, or can readily ascertain, such attorney\u2019s name and address, unless the attorney fails to respond within a reasonable period of time to a communication from the debt collector or unless the attorney consents to direct communication with the consumer; or\nExample: When the consumer is represented by a lawyer, contacting the consumer directly\n(3) at the consumer\u2019s place of employment if the debt collector knows or has reason to know that the consumer\u2019s employer prohibits the consumer from receiving such communication.\nExample: Calling the consumer at work after the consumer has told the debt collector he or she cannot take calls at their place of employment\nExample: Debt Collector speaking with neighbors, parents or children of the consumer\nIf a consumer notifies a debt collector in writing that the consumer refuses to pay a debt or that the consumer wishes the debt collector to cease further communication with the consumer, the debt collector shall not communicate further with the consumer with respect to such debt, except\u2013\nExample: Continued and repeated contact with the consumer despite the consumer having sent a cease and desist letter;\n(1) to advise the consumer that the debt collector\u2019s further efforts are being terminated;\n(3) where applicable, to notify the consumer that the debt collector or creditor intends to invoke a specified remedy.\nIf such notice from the consumer is made by mail, notification shall be complete upon receipt.\n(d) \u201cConsumer\u201d defined\nFor the purpose of this section, the term \u201cconsumer\u201d includes the consumer\u2019s spouse, parent (if the consumer is a minor), guardian, executor, or administrator.\n\u00a7 1692d. Harassment or abuse\u2014Harassment and/or abuse by a debt collector is prohibited by the FDCPA. The FDCPA lists specifically what kinds of acts constitute abuse or harassment. They include:\nExample: threatening violence or injury to the consumer, damage to house or car, or to embarrass the consumer to his or her neighbors/family;\n(2) The use of obscene or profane language or language the natural consequence of which is to abuse the hearer or reader. Example: cursing to the consumer\nExample: public disclosure of a consumer\u2019s debts\nExample: repeated calls on a daily or weekly basis;\n(6) Except as provided in section 1692b of this title, the placement of telephone calls without meaningful disclosure of the caller\u2019s identity.\nExample: debt collector failing to tell consumer who they are , what company they work for, etc.\n\u00a7 1692e. False or misleading representations\u2014In addition to prohibiting abuse and harassment, the FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from making false or misleading statements or statements in an effort to coerce payment of the debt. The FDCPA specifically defines what types of statements are false and/or misleading.\nExample: Using a symbol on a letter or stating in a phone call or letter which suggest that the debt collector is somehow working with or part of a government;\nExamples: Stating the consumer owes more than they actually do, or that the debt collector can sue on a debt that is barred by the statute of limitations;\nExample: that if the consumer pays the debt, the debt collector or someone else will pay the consumer;\nExample: Lawyers sending mass form letters which suggest that the lawyer is involved in collecting the debt;\nExample: threatening that a consumer can be arrested for non-payment of a debt, or that his or her wages can be garnished if the state he or she resides in prohibits garnishment;\nExample: like 4 above but would include threats of suit when the debt collector doesn\u2019t sue or cannot sue in the consumer\u2019s forum, threatening suit far away;\n(6) The false representation or implication that a sale, referral, or other transfer of any interest in a debt shall cause the consumer to\u2013\nExample of this would be telling a consumer that a debt will stay on the consumer\u2019s credit report beyond the time-period permitted by the FCRA or that the debt collector has reported a debt to a credit bureau when they haven\u2019t).\n(11) The failure to disclose in the initial written communication with the consumer and, in addition, if the initial communication with the consumer is oral, in that initial oral communication, that the debt collector is attempting to collect a debt and that any information obtained will be used for that purpose, and the failure to disclose in subsequent communications that the communication is from a debt collector, except that this paragraph shall not apply to a formal pleading made in connection with a legal action.\n(14) The use of any business, company, or organization name other than the true name of the debt collector\u2019s business, company, or organization.\n\u00a7 1692f. Unfair practices\u2014The FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from engaging in tactics which would clearly be unfair to a consumer. The following is a list of prohibited unfair tactics:\n(1) The collection of any amount including any interest, fee, charge, or expense incidental to the principal obligation) unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or permitted by law.\n(2) The acceptance by a debt collector from any person of a check or other payment instrument postdated by more than five days unless such person is notified in writing of the debt collector\u2019s intent to deposit such check or instrument not more than ten nor less than three business days prior to such deposit.\n(3) The solicitation by a debt collector of any postdated check or other postdated payment instrument for the purpose of threatening or instituting criminal prosecution.\n(4) Depositing or threatening to deposit any postdated check or other postdated payment instrument prior to the date on such check or instrument.\n(6) Taking or threatening to take any nonjudicial action to effect dispossession or disablement of property if\u2013\n\u00a7 1692g. Debt Validation\u2013This section gives consumers the right to demand that a debt collector provide verification of a debt. For example, if the consumer disputed the debt as not being his or hers and demanded verification of it, this would require the debt collector to provide some evidence showing the consumer\u2019s liability (like a credit application or receipt for a purchase.\nIf the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection (a) of this section that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. Collection activities and communications that do not otherwise violate this subchapter may continue during the 30-day period referred to in subsection (a) of this section unless the consumer has notified the debt collector in writing that the debt, or any portion of the debt, is disputed or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor. Any collection activities and communication during the 30-day period may not overshadow or be inconsistent with the disclosure of the consumer\u2019s right to dispute the debt or request the name and address of the original creditor.\n(d) Legal pleadings\nA communication in the form of a formal pleading in a civil action shall not be treated as an initial communication for purposes of subsection (a) of this section.\n(e) Notice provisions\nThe sending or delivery of any form or notice which does not relate to the collection of a debt and is expressly required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, chapter 94 of this title [15 U.S.C.A. \u00a7 6801 et seq.], or any provision of Federal or State law relating to notice of data security breach or privacy, or any regulation prescribed under any such provision of law, shall not be treated as an initial communication in connection with debt collection for purposes of this section.\n\u00a7 1692h. Multiple debts\nIf any consumer owes multiple debts and makes any single payment to any debt collector with respect to such debts, such debt collector may not apply such payment to any debt which is disputed by the consumer and, where applicable, shall apply such payment in accordance with the consumer\u2019s directions.\n\u00a7 1692i. Lawsuits \u2014This section limits how and where a debt collector can sue a consumer for a debt:\n(a) Venue\nAny debt collector who brings any legal action on a debt against any consumer shall\u2013\n(1) in the case of an action to enforce an interest in real property securing the consumer\u2019s obligation, bring such action only in a judicial district or similar legal entity in which such real property is located; or\n(2) in the case of an action not described in paragraph (1), bring such action only in the judicial district or similar legal entity\u2013\n\u00a7 1692j. Furnishing certain deceptive forms\u2014Debt Collectors cannot use deceptive forms which trick a consumer into paying a debt.\n\u00a7 1692k. Civil liability\u2014If a debt collector violates the FDPCA, the consumer can sue the company AND recover attorney\u2019s fees and costs.\nExcept as otherwise provided by this section, any debt collector who fails to comply with any provision of this subchapter with respect to any person is liable to such person in an amount equal to the sum of\u2013\n(3) in the case of any successful action to enforce the foregoing liability, the costs of the action, together with a reasonable attorney\u2019s fee as determined by the court. On a finding by the court that an action under this section was brought in bad faith and for the purpose of harassment, the court may award to the defendant attorney\u2019s fees reasonable in relation to the work expended and costs.\nIn determining the amount of liability in any action under subsection (a) of this section, the court shall consider, among other relevant factors\u2013\n(2) in any class action under subsection (a)(2)(B) of this section, the frequency and persistence of noncompliance by the debt collector, the nature of such noncompliance, the resources of the debt collector, the number of persons adversely affected, and the extent to which the debt collector\u2019s noncompliance was intentional.\n\u00a7 1692Administrative enforcement\n(a) Federal Trade Commission\nCompliance with this subchapter shall be enforced by the Commission, except to the extent that enforcement of the requirements imposed under this subchapter is specifically committed to another agency under subsection (b) of this section. For purpose of the exercise by the Commission of its functions and powers under the Federal Trade Commission Act [15 U.S.C.A. \u00a7 41 et seq.], a violation of this subchapter shall be deemed an unfair or deceptive act or practice in violation of that Act.

        "raw_content": "There is an ongoing outbreak of yellow fever in Brazil. Between 1 July 2017 and 13 March 2018, 920 confirmed human cases of yellow fever have been reported in Brazil, including 300 deaths; in Minas Gerais (415 cases, 130 death), S\u00e3o Paolo (376 cases, 120 deaths), Rio de Janeiro (123 cases, 49 deaths), Espirito Santo (5 cases) and Distrito Federal (1case, 1 death).\nAs a result, Yellow fever vaccination recommendations have been revised by the World Health Organization (WHO) based on the risk assessment of yellow fever transmission. The updated areas at risk for yellow fever are available on the WHO ITH website: http://www.who.int/ith/updates/20180116/en/.\nWHO, considering the increased level of yellow fever virus activity observed across the state of S\u00e3o Paulo, decided that the entire state of S\u00e3o Paulo should currently be considered at risk of yellow fever transmission and vaccination against yellow fever is recommended for international travelers visiting any area in the state of S\u00e3o Paulo.\nCases of yellow fever in unvaccinated travelers who traveled to risk areas in Brazil have also been reported recently in: the United Kingdom (1), France (1), the Netherlands (1), Argentina (4), Chile (3), Romania (1) and Switzerland (1). Probable site of infection for these cases are under investigation and include Mairipor\u00e3/Atibaia, S\u00e3o Paolo (1 case), Ilha Grande/Angra do Reis, Rio de Janeiro (8 cases), Brumadinho, Minas Gerais (1 case).\nTravelers should be informed that yellow fever is transmitted to humans via the bite of an infected mosquito and should take insect bite avoidance measures.\nVaccination against yellow fever is recommended for all travelers \u22659 months of age at least 10 days prior to the travel when visiting areas where there is a risk of yellow fever transmission. A single dose of WHO approved yellow fever vaccine is sufficient to provide sustain immunity and life-long protection against the disease, and a booster dose of the vaccine is not required.\nTravelers should also be aware of symptoms and signs of yellow fever and immediately seek care while traveling and upon return from areas at risk for yellow fever transmission.\nWHO does not recommend the implementation of any general travel or trade restriction.\nWorld Health Organization (WHO).

        "raw_content": "About Laryngoscopy\nWhy Is Laryngoscopy Performed?\nDuring Laryngoscopy\nFlexible and direct laryngoscopy examinations allow doctors to see deeper into the throat by using either a flexible or rigid telescope. Rigid telescopes are more often used as part of a surgical procedure in evaluating kids with stridor (a noisy, harsh breathing) and removing foreign objects in the throat and lower airway. They're also used in collecting tissue samples (biopsies), laser treatments, and in locating cancer of the larynx.\nIndirect laryngoscopy will require your child to sit up straight in a high-backed chair with a headrest and open his or her mouth wide. The doctor will spray the throat with an anesthetic or numbing medication (which your child will gargle and spit out), then cover the tongue with gauze and hold it down.\nThe doctor will hold up a warm mirror to the back of the throat and, with a light attached to his or her headgear, will tilt the mirror to view various areas of the throat. Your child may be asked to make high-pitched or low-pitched sounds so that the doctor can view the larynx and see the vocal cords move.\nFlexible laryngoscopy uses a flexible laryngoscope (a thin, flexible instrument that lights and magnifies images) for a better view of the larynx and vocal cords.\nThis might be done in an operating room under general anesthesia or in the doctor's office, and usually doesn't require a hospital stay. The flexible scope is inserted through a nostril or the mouth, then the doctor examines the throat area through the scope's eyepiece. Sometimes the images are displayed on a monitor so that family members can see what the doctor is seeing.\nThe doctor will explain the findings after the procedure. If a biopsy was taken, a laboratory will examine the tissue and report the results to your doctor, who will discuss the results and treatment options with you. Usually, biopsy results take about 3 to 5 days.\nDepending on the outcome of the exam, your doctor might schedule an office visit or a follow-up procedure for 4 to 6 weeks after the initial laryngoscopy.\nWhen your child is having any kind of procedure, it's understandable to be a little uneasy. But it helps to know that a laryngoscopy is considered an extremely effective and routine medical exam and complications are rare. However, as with most procedures, there are some risks, which your doctor will review with you. If you have any questions about laryngoscopy, speak with your doctor.",

The materials were stone, wood, brick, and a number of intangibles that were integral in the completion of this home sweet home.\n\u201cIt\u2019s so much, I don\u2019t think I can put into words how good it is,\u201d says retired Army Sgt. Legrand Strickland.\nWith the foundation laid of service to his country, more than 400 people helped complete the house. Under the direction of the Gary Sinise Foundation, builders, contractors, designers, and more gave their time and money to make this home a reality for the Strickland family.\n\u201cI would donate the band and play a concert and we\u2019d raise money and build houses,\u201d says Gary Sinise, founder of the Gary Sinise Foundation. \u201cThen when I created my foundation I just wanted to continue doing that. So we created the RISE program, Restore Independence, Supporting Empowerment. That\u2019s what we do is give the independence back to someone that had it taken away because of their injury.\u201d\nIn just 7-1/2 years, Gary Sinise, his Lt. Dan Band, and the Gary Sinise Foundation have provided 70 forever homes to veterans and officers injured in the line of duty.\n\u201cJust think of being a legless, above knee amputee, and the things I used to take for granted because I had legs,\u201d says Strickland. \u201cNow I have a wheelchair and when I get home and take my legs off and enjoy the house and not have to roll around and getting into doorways.\u201d\n\u201cThis house is going to provide them with an opportunity to move forward in their lives. These are all mortgage-free homes,\u201d Sinise said.\nWar veteran who lost his legs gets smart home from Gary Sinise Foundation\nCrest Bowl worker accused of swindling thousands from employer",

        "raw_content": "CO2 emissions from power plants and industrial installations can be recycled as a material using additional energy or converted chemically into energy sources that can be easily stored. The necessary energy can be provided by surplus electricity that is temporarily not needed in the grid and which previously was unable to be stored on a sufficiently large scale. This opens up technological paths that are collectively referred to as power-to-X technologies. These include, for example, Power-to-Gas, Power-to-Chemicals, Power-to-Liquid, Power-to-Fuel and others. Possible products include chemical base materials such as polyurethane as well as synthetic fuels (e.g. kerosene) and synthetic natural gas. This development helps to closer interlink industrial sectors that previously operated separately \u2013 known as sector coupling. Examples include a stronger coupling of conventional power plants with the chemical industry (base materials) and the mobility sector (fuels).\nUtilising surplus electricity for biological methanation\nSurplus electricity can be used to generate hydrogen by means of electrolysis. Part of this hydrogen can be directly mixed with the natural gas and fed into the natural gas network. The remainder can then be used for downstream methanation. In the test, a newly developed biological process has shown promising results. The system is suitable for small, decentralised installations and requires little energy. Read more\nThe efficient production of synthesis gas is being tested on a new test rig in Pullach. A tubular reactor generates synthesis gas \u2013 a compound of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The process is based on dry reforming. The gas is used as a valuable base material in chemical processes. Linde AG is carrying out the research together with its partners. Read more",

The line must have at least two points. One point is the beginning of the line and the other one is the end of the line. In this example, I choose a straight line however the line can be curved. The line is the element that made the shapes which all shapes made with several lines. However, lines are made with points so points are the first element to start any shape.\nI took this picture in my apartment while I was working on my computer.\nThis is an example of a plane. I think this paper is representing the plane because it is flat and has hight and width. plane can represent a shape. In this case, it represents rectangular shape.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 ISLAM and the myths of unity and peace\nSAUDI ARABIA and why child marriage is allowed \u2192\nCHINA faces a fresh bout of ethnic hatred\nAngry demonstrators throw rocks at police in Urumqi, capital of China\u2019s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on July 5, 2009.\nThe People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC) faces a new wave of ethnic tensions and just like the crisis in Tibet, much is based on the growing size of the Han Chinese community and the feeling of alienation amongst the mainly Muslim Uighur people. However, for the leaders of the PRC it is like a re-run of ethnic clashes in Tibet because just like now, the government of China is blaming outside agitation. Therefore, what are the real reasons behind the current unrest?\nFirstly, the current death total states that 153 people have been killed during the current riots and street battles in Xinjiang, western China. This figure is likely to increase and more that one thousand people have been injured. In the \u201cfog of hatred\u201d it is hard to pin the blame on any one side.\nAfter all, you have clear evidence of Tibetan Buddhists killing both Han Chinese people and Muslims during riots in 2008. Therefore, a similar pattern may have taken place and it would appear that more Han Chinese people have been killed in the current ethnic violence.\nWhat is clear is that you have had major economic growth in Xinjiang, like Tibet, and central rulers in Beijing will point out that the government of China is merely focused on modernization. Therefore, from a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) perspective the central government does not discriminate against any ethnic group because all citizens belong to the PRC.\nAlso, China is not regulating the movement of people; on the contrary, the political leadership merely wants to eradicate poverty and to bring economic development to poorer regions. Therefore, internal migration is natural and clearly many Han Chinese, and other ethnic groups, have migrated to Shanghai and other parts of China in order to find work.\nHowever, in both Xinjiang and Tibet you have two powerful ethnic and religions groups and within both communities you have people who feel marginalized or fear the erosion of their traditional way of life. This especially applies to the rapid growth of the Han Chinese ethnic community in both Xinjiang and Tibet. Yet what is the PRC meant to do?\nAfter all, if the PRC neglected both regions in the field of economics then you would have a further outcry of neglect and abandonment. Also, both regions were economically weak prior to the creation of the PRC and poverty was rampant. Therefore, China, just like multi-ethnic America or the United Kingdom, and other nations, will see major changes in migration patterns.\nFor example the Hispanic community is now thriving in many parts of America and ethnic changes have been rapid in many parts of this nation, notably in southern areas of America. The same applies to many cities in the United Kingdom. For example the Muslim community 60 years ago in places like Bradford, Oldham, and other cities, was very small yet today the Muslim community is thriving. Yet just like China, much of this ethnic change took place because of economic reasons and migration was a natural phenomena and not state regulated.\nIn the streets of Iran today, people are dying in the name of democracy and it is the centralized state which is clamping down on open demonstrations. Yet these demonstrations are a million miles away from what happened in Tibet last year, and what may have taken place in Xinjiang. For in Tibet you had Tibetan Buddhists surrounding Han Chinese people and other ethnic groups, and killing innocent people in terrible acts of violence. However, demonstrators in Iran are demanding their democratic rights by peaceful ways.\nTurning back to Xinjiang, then it is clear that tensions in the provincial capital, Urumqi, and other smaller outbreaks in Kashgar is causing alarm in Beijing. Ethnic tensions are nothing new and many nations and societies face similar problems. Yet for the PRC recent events in Tibet last year and now in Xinjiang, is problematic because it will hinder both economic development in the short-term but more worryingly, it means that ethnic hatreds will linger on.\nYes, the indigenous people of both Tibet and Xinjiang will have genuine complaints and many fear the loss of their identity or being marginalized. Yet it is also true to state that Buddhism and Islam are thriving in both Tibet and Xinjiang respectively, and in other parts of China. Also, unlike the Okinawan people in Japan who mainly speak Japanese, the people of Tibet and Xinjiang still speak their mother-tongue.\nTherefore, you have a lot of anti-Chinese propaganda about cultural destruction, however, modern day China is very different from the China of 40 years ago which was based on ideology. Given this, the centralized government of China must foster stronger links with important regional institutions in Tibet and Xinjiang respectively. At the same times, negative elements within all communities must be \u201crooted out\u201d because unlike the genuine demonstrations in Iran, both demonstrations in Tibet and Xinjiang turned into ethnic riots and the killing of innocent people happened on the grounds of ethnicity.\nPosted by leejayuk on July 7, 2009 in ASIA, INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND GLOBAL NEWS, RELIGIOUS ISSUES",

It takes time, since the spammer has to have one of the required i.d.\u2019s, has to fill in the form, and then the code to submit.\nNonetheless, every day I have to delete at least several spam comments from the queue. Usually these comments are hawking links to other websites that sell something.\nBut this is a first. A spammer with a sense of humor? Or just desperate? [link to website disabled in quote]:\nRinkesh has left a new comment on your post \u201cIRS The New Health Care Enforcer\u201c:\nHowdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it\u2019s driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated. coughing up blood\nkitty | August 19, 2010 at 10:51 am\nI'm not a spammer; I've commented here before. I just wanted to tell everyone here who may be interested in going to Glen Beck's 8/28 Restoring Honor Rally in DC, that you can still find rides on buses. Check out this map for a bus near you.\nBen | August 19, 2010 at 3:52 pm\nNot sure if you're big enough or comment-oriented enough for it to work, but I recall that, at least when I visited the site, little green footballs would only allow registrations during brief windows.\nWell, if one must be spammed, let one be spammed with sympathy.\nMike | August 19, 2010 at 8:13 pm\nThat wasn't spam. Wikipedia (yeah, yeah, I know. it works for something like this though) defines spam as:\n\"Spam is the use of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately. \"\nThis wasn't a bulk message sent indiscriminately. It seems to me it was merely a note posted in the wrong place. Fine for removal, but identifying it as spam is a mistake.\n1389 | August 29, 2010 at 9:23 am\nI get a ton of spam on my WordPress blog, but I use the Akismet plug-in to get rid of most of it. (I don't think there is a similar counterpart for Blogger blogs.) This looks to me like something that Akismet would automatically reject.\nComment spamming can be posted manually as well as automatically, though it usually is done automatically these days. People look for places to promote some commercial enterprise in an inappropriate manner.",

Smith has been elected the Endowment\u2019s vice president for community development, effective July 1, 2018. Smith will succeed Wallace \u201cAce\u201d Yakey, Jr., who will retire from the Endowment on June 30.\nSmith joined Eli Lilly and Company in 1996 after earning an MBA in finance from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University. At Lilly, he has served as financial analyst, minority business coordinator, manager of investor relations and director of corporate communications. He moved into his current role in 2005 and serves as senior director of corporate responsibility and president of the Eli Lilly and Company Foundation. In this role, he oversees a team accountable for Lilly\u2019s philanthropic efforts, including its work in global health and engagement in Indianapolis. His team also oversees Lilly\u2019s major employee volunteer programs and the company\u2019s archives.\n\u201cI have long admired the Lilly family, and it has been an honor to work for the company they built. It is a privilege beyond words to join the philanthropic organization they made possible \u2013 one that has had such a positive influence in my home state of Indiana and beyond. I look forward to working with the outstanding team at Lilly Endowment and helping them build on the extraordinary legacy of the Endowment\u2019s founders.\u201d\nYakey joined the Endowment\u2019s staff on Nov. 1, 1997, as program director in community development. In 2012, he was elected vice president for community development. Before joining the Endowment, Yakey was president of the Indianapolis Economic Development Corp., a nonprofit corporation that was responsible for the retention and expansion of existing businesses in the Indianapolis area, as well as the attraction of new businesses to the region.\nThe Endowment\u2019s community development division supports efforts that enhance the quality of life in Indianapolis and Indiana. It also provides funding for compelling causes that are consistent with the values and interests of its founders throughout the country.\n\u201cIt has been a true privilege to work with Ace for more than 20 years. There is no one more committed to improving the quality of life of all the residents of communities throughout Indiana. The Endowment is most grateful for his dedicated and passionate leadership and service,\u201d said N. Clay Robbins, the Endowment\u2019s chairman, president and CEO.\n\u201cAlthough we will miss Ace, the Endowment is delighted that Rob has agreed to lead our community development division. His character, wisdom and dedication to the values and aims of the Endowment\u2019s founders, along with the relevant expertise he has developed through his various experiences at Eli Lilly and Company, make him ideal for this role.\u201d\nLilly Endowment Inc. is an Indianapolis-based, private philanthropic foundation created in 1937 by J. K. Lilly and his sons, Eli and J.K. Jr., through gifts of stock in their pharmaceutical business, Eli Lilly and Company. While those gifts remain the financial bedrock of the Endowment, the Endowment is a separate entity from the company, with a distinct governing board, staff and location. In keeping with the founders\u2019 wishes, the Endowment supports the causes of community development, education, and religion and maintains a special commitment to its hometown, Indianapolis, and home state, Indiana.",

He is the English physicist who became famous for his theories of the universe and for the books that he wrote, among them A Brief History of Time that has sold ten million copies.\nStephen Hawking is also famous for something else. When he was still a college student, he was found to have ALS (Lou Gehrig\u2019s disease), a disease of progressive muscular degeneration. He was told he had two years to live, being made to understand that, as his body deteriorated, his mind would be unaffected.\nThe Theory of Everything is Stephen Hawking\u2019s story, based on a book by his wife, Jane Hawking. Eddie Redmayne, who was memorable in My Week with Marilyn and Les Mis\u00e9rables, plays Stephen, and Felicity Jones plays his (nearly saintly) wife, who, even in middle age, appears to be about twelve years old. (A minor quibble.)\nWhen Stephen first discovers that he has ALS, he tries to send Jane away, believing he has no future and nothing to offer her, but she persists. (She takes the idea of romantic love literally.) She will stick by Stephen for as long as he has. (Stephen\u2019s father tells Jane that Stephen\u2019s disease won\u2019t be a fight but will instead be a crushing defeat for all of them.) Stephen and Jane are married and soon have a child.\nLiving with Stephen and taking care of him is not easy for Jane, but she soldiers on through the years as Stephen becomes world-famous and continues to defy the probability that he will die soon. Jane and Stephen end up having three children. A turning point comes when Jane\u2019s mother suggests that Jane join the choir at church. (\u201cThat may be the most English thing that anybody has ever said,\u201d Jane says.) She takes her mother\u2019s suggestion and meets the handsome and charming choir director, Jonathan Hellyer Jones (played by Charlie Cox, who played a likeable character on Boardwalk Empire who met a bad end). Jonathan becomes a friend and helper to both Jane and Stephen. Jane soon admits that she has \u201cfeelings\u201d for Jonathan and Jonathan feels the same way about Jane. Stephen, meanwhile, is drawn to a pretty therapist named Elaine.\nYou don\u2019t have to understand Stephen Hawking\u2019s science (black holes, the theory of relativity, boundaries of the universe, etc.) to be drawn in to The Theory of Everything. It\u2019s a very good movie that, like other very good movies, will probably not appear at the local multiplex that only does mainstream. You might have to go a little farther and expend a little more effort to see it, but it\u2019s worth it. If it\u2019s not one of the best movies of the year, it\u2019ll have to do until the real thing comes along.",

        "raw_content": "Mein Fuehrer is Sleeping ~ A Short Story by Allen Kopp\nHis name was Albrecht Fennerman and he was a ghoul. Tall and emaciated, with skin the color of ivory, he wore only formal attire, top hat and monocle. A most distinguished fellow. His teeth were long and gray and he used them for biting when necessary, but most of the time he wore a benign smile. He was over a hundred and thirty years old and by any reckoning should have been dead a long time ago, but, since the fall of the Third Reich in 1945, he had kept himself alive with a secret formula devised by Dr. Mengele and by self-administered jolts of electricity.\nAt one time Albrecht Fennerman the ghoul had been married to a witch named Rafaela, but Rafaela had been dead for, lo, these many years. From this blessed union had been born two daughters, Regina and Gloriana, whom Albrecht suffered to live with him in his castle.\nRegina and Gloriana were half-ghoul and half-witch and, as a result of this duality, were temperamental and bitter in the extreme. They believed they belonged in neither camp, the ghouls or the witches, so they kept themselves apart and were mostly unhappy. Regina in her hulking enormity was not as formidable or as frightening as tiny Gloriana, who possessed the deviousness and cunning of a master criminal. She mistreated her servants and had been known to kill one or the other of them in a fit of pique, flinging their lifeless bodies down a ravine while Regina stood by and laughed uproariously.\nBoth of Albrecht\u2019s daughters had been disappointed in love many times. In the game of romance, they didn\u2019t seem to be able to get a decent hand. Men either ran away from them, or Gloriana for one reason or another had to kill them. Sometimes on very short acquaintance.\nThey still held out hope, though. Their one wish and their most fervent desire lay in a vat of formaldehyde in a sealed chamber in the castle.\nSince the death in 1945 of the Fuehrer, Albrecht Fennerman had been in possession of the Fuehrer\u2019s well-preserved body. When the time was right, he and some of his friends would return the Fuehrer to life and from that moment on the history of the world would be forever changed. The Fourth Reich would be born, the greatest the world has ever known. Mighty and invincible, with world domination its goal. Everything would go according to plan this time. Knowledge of past mistakes would smooth the way for the future.\nAnd when he awoke from his long sleep, the Fuehrer was going to need a queen, a mate to stand by his side, to help him guide the destiny of the world. Regina, with her bulk and physical prowess, her horned helmet and breastplate, believed that she was to be the female ideal of the Fourth Reich. Gloriana, however, was convinced that the Fuehrer would choose the woman of intellect and the ruthlessness to kill anybody who tried to stand in her way.\nSo each sister harbored a secret desire to be Queen of the coming Fourth Reich, never discussing it with the other but all the time plotting what they would do and how they would do it when the time came. Each was as determined as the other. Their feminine wiles, so they believed, were inexhaustible and without peer.\nOne autumn day, after being gone for more than a week, Albrecht pulled up in front of the castle in his 1936 touring car. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he went around to the other side of the car to help somebody else get out. It was a lady and he knew that Regina and Gloriana were watching from the upstairs window.\nAlbrecht and the lady went inside the house, smiling and laughing. He welcomed her effusively and showed her into all the downstairs rooms with a sweep of his arm. He would show her the upstairs after they had rested a while and had a drink.\nAt the dinner of pig brains in a blood sauce and dinosaur eggs (an expensive delicacy), Regina and Gloriana discovered that the \u201clady\u201d called herself Marie Antoinette and that she was a witch. They knew there had been other witches in Albrecht\u2019s life before but none had ever been invited to dinner before.\n\u201cHow long will you be staying with us?\u201d Regina asked innocently as blood dripped from her mouth.\nAlbrecht and Marie Antoinette looked at each other and laughed. He reached over and took her hand in his.\n\u201cShe\u2019s going to be here always,\u201d he said with his sly smile.\n\u201cIsn\u2019t it rather ridiculous to suppose that she would want to live in a drafty old castle on a lonely mountain top,\u201d Gloriana asked, \u201cwhere the nearest town is twenty-five miles away?\u201d\n\u201cOh, I think the castle is marvelous!\u201d Marie gushed.\n\u201cI have to let you in on a little secret,\u201d Albrecht said and giggled foolishly. \u201cShe is to be your new step-mama.\u201d\n\u201cOoooh!\u201d Regina said, clapping her hands in baby claps.\n\u201cYou mean you\u2019re going to marry her?\u201d Gloriana asked.\n\u201cWe were married three days ago!\u201d Albrecht said. \u201cWe\u2019ve been honeymooning in Switzerland!\u201d\n\u201cJesus, Mary and Joseph!\u201d Gloriana exclaimed.\nMarie looked from one to the other of them, expecting their congratulations. \u201cI think we shall all get along famously!\u201d she cooed.\n\u201cOh, dear!\u201d Regina exclaimed, looking at her sister.\n\u201cI know!\u201d Albrecht said. \u201cIt\u2019s a bit of a shock and it\u2019ll take some time for all of you to get acquainted.\u201d\n\u201cWhat if I say no?\u201d Gloriana said.\n\u201cI for one don\u2019t want her here and I\u2019m sure Regina feels the same way.\u201d\n\u201cOui, oui!\u201d Regina said, reverting to the French whenever she became upset.\n\u201cWhose castle is this?\u201d Albrecht asked. \u201cWhose table are you sitting at? Whose food are you eating?\u201d\n\u201cS\u2019il vous pla\u00eet!\u201d Regina simpered. \u201cIl ne faut pas se quereller.\u201d\n\u201cTut, tut, tut!\u201d Marie said. \u201cI don\u2019t want to cause discord in the family. I\u2019ll go whenever my husband tells me to go.\u201d\n\u201cThat will be never, my dear!\u201d he said.\n\u201cYou and your sister are only about a hundred years old,\u201d Marie said, facing Gloriana with a gracious smile. \u201cI am hundreds of years old. The two of you are half-witches. I am a full-fledged witch. Your powers, if they even exist, are no match for mine!\u201d\n\u201cThere\u2019ll be no reason for a display of powers!\u201d Albrecht said.\n\u201cMon Dieu! Mon Dieu!\u201d Regina said.\n\u201cI don\u2019t believe she\u2019s really Marie Antoinette,\u201d Gloriana said. \u201cShe could make up any story she wanted to try to impress people. Well, I for one am not impressed!\u201d\nMarie loosened the collar of her dress to show the hideous scar where her head had been separated from her body. \u201cMaybe this will help to convince you,\u201d she said.\n\u201cAnybody can have a scar on their neck!\u201d Gloriana said.\n\u201cHow did you do it?\u201d Regina asked.\n\u201cAfter my execution by guillotine, some friends took my body away and reattached my head. Quite simple.\u201d\n\u201cAnd then they made you a witch?\u201d\n\u201cI was always a witch. I was born a witch.\u201d\n\u201cDid your husband, the king, know?\u201d\n\u201cBut you told him later?\u201d\n\u201cHe came to understand it on his own.\u201d\n\u201cAnybody can tell a pack of lies!\u201d Gloriana said.\n\u201cI don\u2019t really care one way or another if you believe me,\u201d Marie said. \u201cI do not have to try to prove myself to any half-witch.\u201d\n\u201cDo you know I have been known to kill?\u201d Gloriana asked. \u201cJust ask Regina.\u201d\n\u201cOui, oui!\u201d Regina said.\n\u201cI am not afraid of you,\u201d Marie said.\n\u201cI may not kill you but I can order you out of the house!\u201d\n\u201cNo, you cannot!\u201d Albrecht said. \u201cIf anybody is ordered out of the house, if it be you and I will be the one doing the ordering!\u201d\n\u201cI forgive you, my dear!\u201d Marie said. \u201cI know it isn\u2019t easy being what you are.\u201d\n\u201cYou don\u2019t know anything about me!\u201d\n\u201cI know you are half-witch and half-ghoul, and that in anybody\u2019s book is a very bad combination.\u201d\n\u201cNous nous intendons!\u201d Regina said.\n\u201cThat will be enough of all this!\u201d Albrecht said. \u201cI\u2019ve had a long journey and I\u2019m tired. Gloriana, Marie is here and here she will stay. If you don\u2019t think you are capable to adjusting yourself to the situation, I invite you to leave at any time.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019ll just see about that.\u201d\n\u201cWe should not engage in petty quarrels,\u201d Marie said. \u201cWe are all nothing compared to the destiny that awaits us.\u201d\n\u201cMeaning what?\u201d Gloriana asked.\n\u201cA god sleeps in our midst.\u201d\n\u201cComment po\u00e9tique!\u201d Regina said.\n\u201cWe will all live only to serve him. Nothing else will matter!\u201d\n\u201cYou told this woman of your plans to resurrect the Fuehrer?\u201d Gloriana shrieked at Albrecht. \u201cHow could you?\u201d\n\u201cWe have chosen the date,\u201d Marie said, standing up from the table. \u201cIt will be October the thirty-first, All Hallow\u2019s Eve. Dr. Mengele, himself a ghoul since the fall of the Third Reich, now possesses the knowledge to awaken the Fuehrer from his long sleep. Albrecht and I, along with thirteen of our closest associates, will be present to witness the moment that will electrify the world!\u201d\n\u201cWhat are you saying?\u201d Gloriana asked. \u201cDo you think the Fuehrer will want you as his queen?\u201d\n\u201cMy dear, I already am a queen! While you, I am afraid, are nothing! You don\u2019t even figure into the equation.\u201d\n\u201cEst-ce vrai?\u201d Regina whimpered.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think some of us will live to see the day!\u201d Gloriana said.\nWith those words, she picked up a knife and hurled it at Marie\u2019s head. When the knife missed, she lunged across the table to get her hands around Marie\u2019s neck to strangle her.\nWhat Marie had said was true. Gloriana was no match for her powers. With one movement of her finger, she turned Gloriana into a crow.\n\u201cMon Dieu!\u201d Regina said. \u201cQu\u2019avez-vous fait?\u201d\nGloriana hopped around on the table and looked around in amazement with her beady, blinking eyes.\n\u201cHow appropriate!\u201d Marie said. \u201cThis half-witch is now a lowly crow.\u201d\n\u201cI think you may have gone too far, my dear!\u201d Albrecht said mildly.\n\u201cNonsense!\u201d Marie said. \u201cI think I know how to handle unruly children.\u201d\n\u201cCan you change her back?\u201d\n\u201cIf she behaves herself and if I remember how to do it. I think it would be best for all of us if she remains a crow until well into November, don\u2019t you, darling?\u201d\n\u201cI suppose you\u2019re right,\u201d Albrecht said.\n\u201cWhat do we do with her in the meantime?\u201d Regina asked.\n\u201cIn the basement you will find a large bird cage. Go down and bring it up.\u201d\n\u201cBut I\u2019m afraid to go to the basement by myself, father!\u201d\n\u201cFind it! Put your sister in it and keep her in your room. I\u2019ll leave her in your charge until we change her back.\u201d\n\u201cIf we change her back,\u201d Marie said.\n\u201cFeed her corn or whatever crows eat. If she won\u2019t eat corn, find something that she will eat.\u201d\n\u201cProbably dead flesh,\u201d Marie said, resuming her seat at the table to finish her dinner.",

        "title": "How should we protect and preserve our history \u2014 on the moon? | Lucas Laursen",
        "raw_content": "But amid the excitement of exploring the moon, we can\u2019t overlook our lunar heritage, says Derek Webber, a commercial space exploration consultant and former satellite engineer (TEDxBudapest talk: Claiming the future; protecting the past). After all, humanity\u2019s past isn\u2019t just what has been left here on Earth \u2014 it\u2019s in space, too. \u201cLunar heritage is the record of when we first reached the moon, and it captures the epoch-making reality of what happened back then,\u201d he says. New voyagers will encounter 58 years\u2019 worth of human-created artifacts on the moon, including flags and footprints. Here\u2019s why we should be thoughtful about what we do with them.\nDon\u2019t worry. NASA\u2019s got a (tentative) plan. The basis of international space law is the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which has been signed by 106 nations and states that while the planets and celestial bodies belong to all countries, objects in space are owned by the governments that launched them. In 2011, NASA issued an initial set of recommendations on best practices for America\u2019s moon heritage sites, which include the locations where the Apollo missions landed. The guidelines address such questions as how far a rocket should stay away from heritage sites during its landing approach (two kilometers) and how far a rover on the ground should stay from objects to minimize the odds of an accident (one to three meters, depending on the item). However, these aren\u2019t formal rules, and they pertain only to US equipment. So it will take cross-border cooperation and goodwill to ensure that the next wave of explorers act responsibly.\nThere\u2019s tons of stuff on the moon \u2014 and a ton of valuable information. It\u2019s estimated that up to 400,000 pounds of human-made debris have been deposited on that celestial body. The American stuff includes five national flags, a gold olive branch (which was left by the Apollo 11 crew in 1969 as a gesture of peace), discarded packaging from meals, used wet wipes, and dozens of spacecraft, both intentionally and accidentally crashed. And, of course, there are the other less visible but no less important souvenirs of America\u2019s impact on the moon, such as the footsteps of Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and the 10 other US astronauts who have walked on the moon. \u201cThere\u2019s a whole lot of data to get from those sites and objects,\u201d says University of Central Florida planetary physicist Phil Metzger, who was involved in writing the NASA guidelines. Researchers could study crashed spacecraft to determine why they stopped working, and the successfully landed vehicles could yield information about space weathering under temperatures that veer from +200 to -200 Celsius. \u201cWe want to know how different materials have held up in the space environment,\u201d says Metzger. Even assessing the amount of dust collected on items can tell us about the flux of micrometeorites, which will shed light on how the lunar surface was formed and how the solar system works.\nSpace heritage won\u2019t last forever. If lunar heritage sites attract robotic or human pilgrims, they\u2019re likely to degrade faster. Since the GLXP competition is aimed at developing low-cost methods of space exploration, \u201cmy biggest concern is that [the GLXP missions are] being done on a shoestring, says Roger Launius, former senior curator at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC, and the author or editor of 26 books on space. He believes the less money the teams have to spend, the less likely the guidance technology for their landers and rovers is to work. One important question to consider is whether NASA can realistically protect the sites while at the same time being able to conduct any necessary science experiments and make them accessible to future space tourists.\nMoon visitors could help provide answers. GLXP teams have been asked to follow NASA\u2019s guidelines, so its recommendations will undergo real-life testing. Teams can win bonus prizes of up to $4 million for producing high-quality video and photographic documentation of heritage sites, so competitors will be motivated to come up with ways to approach the areas without harming them. After the upcoming missions by GLXP teams and by other governments and entities, NASA can \u201creview their work and add aspects to take care of omissions as future knowledge emerges,\u201d says Webber. Flexibility is essential \u2014 since moon exploration is relatively nascent, \u201cthere\u2019s no possible way we could be smart enough to write really good guidelines at this point,\u201d adds Metzger.\nSpace conservation efforts must strike a balance between past, present and future. Since outer-space spots are not yet tourist destinations, people with the moon bug must settle for digital substitutes now and in the near future \u2014 Google offers 3D tours of the Moonthrough Google Earth and the Smithsonian is planning to incorporate virtual reality into its future Apollo exhibits. At the same time, though, governments must prepare for the inevitable reality of space travel and make plans to protect their country\u2019s artifacts on the moon. A goal should be \u201cto tell that story in the best possible way with the best preserved site possible,\u201d says Launius.\nIn terms of models, at one extreme are the Churchill War Rooms \u2014 the London space where Winston Churchill and the British Cabinet did their plotting during World War II and which is open to the public as a museum. The Rooms are \u201ca good example of halting time, as it were, and preserving a moment and place of history,\u201d Webber says. At the other extreme is Stonehenge, where ongoing attempts to provide access to visitors have created new layers of changes to the site. Regardless of what decisions the next visitors to space heritage sites make, one thing is certain \u2014 they probably won\u2019t please everyone. \u201cThere will always be a tension between those wanting to protect the past, and those wanting to keep moving forward,\u201d Webber says.\nFirst published by TED Ideas: [html] [pdf].\nPrevious PostTaxonomy Goes Digital: Getting a Handle on Social BotsNext PostSoil in the Forecast",

        "title": "Transitioning from Researcher to Outreacher | Lucas Laursen",
        "raw_content": "Transitioning from Researcher to Outreacher\nShelley Bolderson was scraping mud from a trowel one day in an Anglo-Saxon midden in St. Neots, United Kingdom, when she realized she didn\u2019t want to be an archaeologist any longer. \u201cIt was winter, and I\u2019d spent ages on that particular site,\u201d she recalls. \u201cIt was really kind of soul-destroying work.\u201d\nUntil that point, Bolderson had worked as a freelance archaeologist around England, mostly in urban environments, where she assessed building sites before development. She had a bachelor\u2019s degree in archaeology from the University of Southampton in the U.K. and wasn\u2019t interested in doing a master\u2019s or Ph.D. She sought temporary work while deciding what to do next.\nOne of her temporary jobs was at the University of Cambridge in the U.K. in the office that coordinates the Cambridge Science Festival, an annual, weeklong event that shares Cambridge-area science research with the public. \u201cI saw a new career I had no idea existed beforehand and thought it looked really exciting,\u201d she says. When a position coordinating the science festival opened up in the office, Bolderson applied for it.\nIt\u2019s common for scientists do some outreach work alongside their research jobs \u2014 an occasional public lecture, say, or a talk at a local school. But a few scientists, including Bolderson, have turned outreach into a full-time job, connecting science and scientists with the public via their jobs at universities, associations, museums, or other organizations. Andrew Hickley, Bolderson\u2019s former boss who\u2019s now an independent consultant, says the mission and motivation of science outreach \u201cis helping people understand science more effectively, helping them understand the role that science has got to play in society [and] in people\u2019s lives.\u201d\nFor Bolderson, that has meant organizing the annual science festival and training graduate students, postdocs, and other researchers to host their own public-engagement activities during the year. She also helps manage the ongoing relationship between the university\u2019s scientific community and the city government, with which she coordinates a summer science program for young people. Managing relationships with colleagues and community members is an important element of her work, she says.\nScience outreach careers bring science to the public in many settings, whether it\u2019s by putting on special programs at the university, giving workshops in the community, or going into school classrooms. It\u2019s a teaching gig, with the widest possible audience. Still, Hickley says, \u201cthere\u2019s absolutely no substitute for standing up in front of a classroom full of kids.\u201d\nChris Vanags of the Vanderbilt Center for Science Outreach (CSO) in Nashville, Tennessee, is a quintessential example. He coordinates a program that brings local high school students to the university once a week for science classes. He and his colleagues prepare lesson plans and teach just as if they were high school teachers but within a university setting. \u201cOur goal is to teach kids to think like scientists though not necessarily to be [scientists],\u201d he says.\nOutreach coordinators at academic institutions also work with the scientists and departments within the university. Scientists with outreach components to their research funding may look to the university\u2019s outreach specialists for assistance in designing outreach plans that complement their research, in writing the outreach portion of a grant application, or in executing the outreach plan once that funding comes in. Jennifer Ufnar, director of the Science Teacher Institute, also at the Vanderbilt CSO, often helps Vanderbilt scientists write broader-impact statements for their National Science Foundation (NSF) grant applications.\nOutreach officers at scientific societies have some similar responsibilities, especially in interacting with the public. The British Science Association, for instance, organizes its own annual science festival, as well as a science and engineering week aimed at the general public. The rest of the year, the organization offers enrichment activities and material to schoolteachers and their students, coordinates student science project competitions, and helps organize local science and engineering clubs. Katherine Mathieson, the association\u2019s director of education, supervises the managers of each of those outreach areas; she does little direct science outreach today, she says, but she enjoys having a hand in a variety of projects, established and new.\nMathieson notes that science-related businesses are another place to look for jobs with an outreach component, as those companies want to build good relationships with the community. However, \u201cthe major opportunities are going to be related to universities or similar institutions, such as museums,\u201d Hickley says.\nAn outreach incubator at Vanderbilt\nUfnar\u2019s career got a major boost when she connected with pathologist Virginia Shepherd, the director of the Vanderbilt CSO. Early in her career, Shepherd attended a session at a scientific meeting at which a speaker proclaimed that scientists have an obligation to the public, which funds their research, to devote 4 hours a week to teaching. Shepherd was attracted to the idea, and today she devotes far more of her time to outreach at the Vanderbilt CSO, where she coordinates the efforts of 15 postdocs and graduate students who handle more than half a dozen different science outreach initiatives. \u201cIt started off very modestly, and now we have funding of around $1.5 million a year,\u201d she says. In addition to directing the Vanderbilt CSO, Shepherd still runs her pathology lab and publishes in biochemistry and microbiology journals.\nThe work has given Shepherd and her prot\u00e9g\u00e9s \u2014 including Vanags and Ufnar \u2014 an idea of the skills aspiring outreach workers need to communicate science to teachers and students. One key: laboratory experience. \u201cHaving worked in a lab really did help me because I was comfortable with the science,\u201d Ufnar says, referring to her Ph.D. research in environmental toxicology at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg. Another key, Shepherd says, is the ability to create partnerships. She points to NSF\u2019s Graduate STEM Fellows in K-12 Education program, in which science graduate students commit to visiting a classroom on a weekly basis. \u201cIf I were going to hire somebody,\u201d Shepherd says, \u201cI\u2019d certainly look to see if they\u2019d been involved in leading a program or if they were involved in a program for training\u201d during their scientific career.\nUfnar also teaches in Vanags\u2019s high school program, brings schoolteachers into her water-contamination lab at Vanderbilt to teach them how to do research, and teaches at a nearby community college. A portion of her time is spent writing grant proposals, for her research in water contamination and to support her outreach efforts. \u201cI do everything a traditional scientist would do, just in the outreach field,\u201d Ufnar says. She hopes eventually to take the skills she is accumulating at Vanderbilt to another university, directing her own outreach center and forging closer links between the research community and the public.\nIt\u2019s possible to earn an advanced degree in science communication, but most scientists interested in outreach begin with small steps out of the laboratory. The ready availability of volunteer work makes it possible to try before you buy. For a one-time taste of outreach that doesn\u2019t require a long-term commitment, Hickley suggests looking for a nearby science festival to see if they could use volunteers.\n\u201cWith educational outreach, contacting the outreach center on campus is the perfect first step,\u201d Ufnar says, adding that outreach officers would usually be delighted to utilize volunteer help from a grad student or postdoc. Even undergraduates can volunteer in outreach, as Ufnar did when she was still an undergrad.\nMathieson recommends volunteering at your institution before abandoning research to pursue a full-time outreach career. She got started in outreach as a volunteer answering calls from the public on Science Line, the now-defunct science-questions hotline. It was \u201canything-could-happen outreach,\u201d she says. \u201cIt was really good fun getting a sense of the kind of questions people would ask and why they ask them.\u201d When Science Line needed a full-time staffer, they hired her. \u201cA lot of charities and small enterprises who do science outreach operate in that way. They\u2019ll need volunteers for particular activities or events, and then when it comes to recruiting there\u2019s an obvious pool to recruit from.\u201d\nLike many science-related jobs, outreach requires a combination of skills. \u201cYou need to be a good communicator first of all, \u2026 good at working with people, empathic; you need to understand what stage they\u2019ve reached in their understanding,\u201d Hickley says. Even if you decide not to pursue outreach as a career, the interpersonal skills you gain will help if you go into outreach full time \u2014 or even if you don\u2019t. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to be a scientist to do this stuff,\u201d Hickley says, but if you are, there is absolutely nothing stopping you acquiring the skills for doing it.\u201d\nPrevious PostHaitians go home as government proposes relocationNext PostIceland Eruptions Fuel Interest in Volcanic Gas Monitoring",

        "raw_content": "Queen Fabiola dies aged 86\nBelgium's former queen Fabiola, the Spanish-born widow of the popular King Baudouin, an uncle of Grand Duke Henri, died on Friday, the palace said. She was 86.\n(FILES) A file taken on July 1990 shows Queen Fabiola and King Baudouin of Belgium posing in the parc of their residence at the Royal Castle of Laeken, in Brussels. Belgium&apos;s former queen Fabiola died on December 5, 2014 at the age of 86. AFP PHOTO / belga ***belgium out***\nBelgium's Queen Fabiola looks on during an official photo with the jury members of the International Queen Elisabeth Music contest for violin at the Royal Palace in Brussels in this May 26, 2009 file photo. Queen Fabiola, widow of King Baudouin and queen between 1960 and 1993, died on December 5, 2014 at the age of 86, the royal palace said. REUTERS/Yves Herman/Files (BELGIUM - Tags: ROYALS OBITUARY HEADSHOT)\nA devout Catholic, Fabiola was widely celebrated for bringing spark to a sullen king struggling to connect with a post-colonial Belgium divided into French and Dutch speaking communities.\nUnder a cold December drizzle, the national flag at the royal place in Brussels flew at half mast. State funeral arrangements were not yet decided with the government set to meet on the matter Saturday.\n\"Their majesties the king and queen and members of the royal family announce with very great sadness the death of Her Majesty Queen Fabiola this evening at Stuyvenberg Castle in Brussels,\" a statement from the royal palace of King Philippe said.\nBorn Dona Fabiola de Mora y Aragon on June 11, 1928 in Madrid to Spanish nobility, she married Baudouin in December 1960 - the same year that Congo won its independence from Belgium. The almost inseparable couple never had children.\nThe fifth queen of the Belgians, she withdrew from the public eye after the sudden death of King Baudouin in 1993 on holiday in Spain, while her brother-in-law Albert and Queen Paola took the throne. Then in July 2013, she looked on as king Albert II passed the crown to her nephew Philippe, to whom she was close until her death.\n'Fond memories'\nGrand Duke Henri, Fabiola's nephew by marriage, on Saturday sent a note to the king, saying: \"It is with great emotion that the Grand Duchess and I have learned the news of the passing of Queen Fabiola. With my father, our family and our fellow citizens we extend our very sincere condolences to you. We shall keep fond memories, recognising a queen who put her whole heart and soul and at the service of her husband's reign and the well-being of her fellow citizens. Her love of life and infectious enthusiasm were always an example for us.\"\nPrime Minister Charles Michel said all Belgians saluted her devotion to the nation. \"We will remember a great woman who will forever be part of the history of our country,\" he said.\nThe years after Baudouin's death were hard on Fabiola, challenged by illness and then ensnared in a financial scandal. She sparked uproar in Belgium in 2012 with the creation of a private foundation that was widely perceived as a way to avoid paying the country's 70 percent inheritance tax.\nShe later dissolved the charitable vehicle, and her annual income from the state was reduced from 1.4 million euros to around 900,000 euros.\n'Loved by the people'\nFormer prime minister Elio Di Rupo was part of the campaign against her, but on Friday he paid tribute to a woman \"who would be remembered for her presence and availability, notably to society's most fragile.\"\nFabiola was admired for her devout Roman Catholicism and involvement in social causes, especially those related to mental health, children's issues and the status of women.\n\"She was loved by the people thanks to her spontaneity, that compensated for Baudouin's stiffness and rigidity\", said Mark Van den Wijngaert, a historian at HUB University in Brussels.\nAt the death of Baudouin, many said she would take refuge in a convent or return to her native Spain, but she remained in Belgium, the country that adopted her with open arms in 1959, when her engagement was first announced.\nFabiola also marked minds for wearing resplendent white to her husband's funeral, in an unexpected display of hope and resurrection, instead of a black veil of tradition.\nIt was on a Catholic pilgrimage to Lourdes that the taciturn Baudouin asked Fabiola for her hand in marriage. His queen was \"chosen by the very holy virgin\", the late king would later write.\nOnce installed as Belgium's new queen, Fabiola battled hard to weaken the influence of King Leopold III, who abdicated in 1951, and his wife Lilian. The family rift lasted until Leopold's death.\nFabiola and Baudouin never hid their \"great suffering\" of never having had children. Fabiola suffered five miscarriages in her life, a fate she said ultimately freed the royal couple to \"love children, all the of them.\"",

From occupying just a small room at the Biennale to finally having its own pavilion, Luxembourg has managed to make a splash on the international art scene through its young, contemporary artists.\nAnd while many of them were relative unknowns at the time, both in Luxembourg and abroad, their installations often garnered international acclaim. In 2005 artist Su-Mei Tse even won the Golden Lion for best national participation.\nResearch, reinterpretation and reconstruction\nAs part of the ongoing Atelier Luxembourg project, which aims to present Luxembourg art since 1945, the Mudam has now ventured to reconstruct these 12 projects in its halls.\nBut, as director Enrico Lunghi explained ahead of the official opening on Friday, much has been lost over the years, from complete canvases to documents and other material. Also, the Mudam is a different space from the various venues where Luxembourg artists exhibited their works in the past.\nStill, by collaborating with the artists, the museum has managed to put on an impressive show, spanning its ground and lower floors. With all projects combined in one space, visitors can track the development of contemporary art from the Grand Duchy throughout the years.\nVideo interviews with artists (subtitled in English), documents such as sketches and photographs, dating back to the time each project was first installed in Venice, and more material make for a special retrospective, suitable for Luxembourg contemporary art newcomers and connoisseurs.\nArtists on display are:\n1988: Patricia Lippert, Moritz Ney\n1990: Marie-Paule Feiereisen\n1993: Jean-Marie Biewer, Bertrand Ney\n1995: Bert Theis\n1997: Luc Wolff\n1999: Simone Decker\n2001: Doris Drescher\n2003: Su-Mei Tse\n2005: Antoine Prum\n2007: Jill Mercedes\n2009: Gast Bouschet & Nadine Hilbert\n2011: Martine Feipel & Jean Bechameil\nThe Venice Biennale Projects 1988 \u2013 2011 celebrates its opening night on Friday, October 12, starting at 6pm at the Mus\u00e9e d'Art Moderne in Kirchberg.\nThe exhibition is open until February 24, 2013.

        "title": "When you say no to your doctor\u2019s gloomy prognosis - Lynne McTaggart",
        "raw_content": "When you say no to your doctor\u2019s gloomy prognosis\nIf you\u2019re the victim of a near-fatal car crash, Western medicine, with its array of high-tech gadgetry, is without parallel in its ability to put you back together again.\nBut for anything other than emergency medicine, or certain forms of surgery like joint replacement, modern medicine doesn\u2019t really offer much in the way of miracle cures.\nWhen it comes to most chronic degenerative illnesses plaguing society today, stories of complete healing with conventional treatments are especially thin on the ground. The US National Health Council now estimates that some 133 million Americans, or more than one in three, suffers from at least one chronic condition that is both ongoing and considered incurable.\nThese sobering statistics, which have parallels in other developed nations around the world, represent an indictment of not just our current lifestyles but also the tools conventional medicine has at its disposal.\nWith so few true cures, doctors have learned to view virtually all major degenerative diseases as developing in a simple linear progression\u2014from bad to worse. Arthritis, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune diseases like diabetes, heart disease, Alzeimer\u2019s and other forms of dementia, cancer\u2014you name it\u2014will leave you ever more debilitated and may even kill you in the end. If you\u2019re lucky, the best that most medicine can do is to stave off the inevitable.\nAs a consequence, medicine as it is practiced today is essentially an exercise in dodging bullets.\nIf a patient\u2019s disease violates that progression and he or she actually undergoes a cure, the situation is characterized as a \u2018spontaneous remission,\u2019 as though at any point, without warning, the disease can mysteriously reappear.\nSo unusual is this situation, in the eyes of conventional medicine, that it is written off as a weird anomaly, unlikely to be repeated and so not worthy of study.\nSince 1989, in our publication What Doctors Don\u2019t Tell You we\u2019ve been reporting on thousands of such anomalies. We\u2019ve encountered case after case of people who have defied every medical prediction and overcome the odds. These include cases of many so-called \u2018no-hope\u2019 diseases: stage 4 cancer of many varieties, rheumatoid and other forms of arthritis, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, dementia, Parkinson\u2019s, underactive thyroid, ankylosing spondylitis, chronic fatigue, Lyme disease and more.\nAs we wrote about them, we discovered that these patients had several important characteristics in common: a refusal to accept a prognosis of \u2018you\u2019ll have to learn to live with it,\u2019 coupled with a gritty determination to get well.\nWhen their ordinary doctors could not offer them a cure, they began educating themselves about the potential causes of their illnesses and any alternative treatments with evidence of success. Occasionally this healing journey involved trial and error\u2014experimenting with several modalities before finding the one that was going to make the difference.\nBut in every single instance, the patient understood that to get well, they needed to take their lives into their own hands.\nThere was David Passmore, who beat stage 4 lymphoma with a combination of supplements and positive thinking, and Ivan Misner, who disparaged alternative cancer as \u2018woo-woo\u2019 until he found out he had prostate cancer and turned to alternatives to avoid debilitating surgery or radiation.\nAnd Sean Codling who refused to resign himself to a wheelchair after being diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis and, through some detective work, discovered that the cause of his condition had its origins in his gut. And Sarah Gall, who overcame her painful osteoarthritis with the help of honey and apple cider vinegar.\nOn a vast range of autoimmune conditions, cancer, chronic pain and women\u2019s health, we offer a detailed blueprint for how each of these patients got better. We\u2019ve highlighted the best wellness diets and the most successful alternative treatments\u2014from well-known therapies like homeopathy and acupuncture to more recent discoveries purporting to work on an energetic level.\nThe truth is that any medical prognosis is, at best, a highly inexact science. No doctor, no matter how learned or experienced, can predict with any certainty how any given patient will respond to the challenge of illness and healing. In fact, no one can say with any certainty who will live and who will die. In our long experience, there is always hope, no matter how advanced and disseminated the disease, and a cure for virtually every condition.\nMay you never give up until you find the one that works for you and yours.\n5 responses to \u201cWhen you say no to your doctor\u2019s gloomy prognosis\u201d\nThank you for this article. I will share it. It is important people hear about the successes in dire predictions. Yes there is hope and healing. Thank you Lynne and Byran\nBruce Sawford says:\nLynne, many congratulations on such a brilliant and concise piece of writing. I have already sent it out to WDDTY licensees around the world.\nKarma Singh says:\nWhat a joy. Finally I can add comments. Or, at least I thought I could.\nAs it now seems inevitable that facebook and I must part company due to their abrogating to themselves the right to censor what can and cannot be said even in matters of health and I am, here, required to sign-in with a facebook account to be allowed to comment, this joy must be short-lived.\nNotwithstanding;\nIn more than 40 years practise I have learned that a maximum of 40% of medical diagnoses are even approximately correct. This is due to inadequate basic training and disincentives to expand their knowledge. They are deliberately taught nothing of nutrition because this would drastically reduce pharmaceutical sales. They are required to believe that the advanced development of pharmaceuticals - homoeopathy - is unscientific and ineffective. They are taught nothing of either physical, mental or emotional structures; all things belonging to a basic training to become a healer. Small wonder then that they are, mostly, incapable of helping people - they have neither the tools nor the training required.\nThereto, there comes a well-tutored lack of personal responsibility \u201cno matter what stupid thing I do, the medico\u2019s will make it right again\u201d.\nWhen those who have been taught nothing are carers for those who want to know nothing it is inevitable that many will die and many more be crippled.\nhttps://www.tprip.com\nI am currently re-reading Bernie Siegel's books Love Medicine and Miracles; Peace, Love and Healing; and Living, Loving and Healing. All published between 1986-1993. This wonderful doctor/surgeon took the trouble to learn from his 'survivor' patients, who were mainly cancer sufferers, how they coped with their illness. IF YOU WANT TO LEARN HOW TO HELP YOURSELF TO HEALING, I RECOMMEND YOU READ HIS BOOKS, preferably in this order. I would even say to anyone, \"Read his books\" They are a tonic for living well.\nYeah, this is what I did after being diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer. I had surgery, was sent to an oncologist, was told I'd need chemo or I'd die soon. I walked out, never went back to the oncologist. Didn't do anything special except get more sleep, which I had been scrimping on. I just told myself I have to keep going for my family, and prayed for myself. I have an age in mind that I would like to live to be--78 or 79. I don't care about living past that. I'm almost 68.\nMore than two years after diagnosis, I have no sign of cancer. While having the initial tests, I found out I had ovarian cysts that caused a hormone imbalance in my body, and probably caused or enabled the cancer elsewhere, I deduced. So I had surgery for that as well. So I did take that action, the surgery. Making two surgeries.",

        "title": "Healers Needed | Living in the Reign",
        "raw_content": "Healers Needed\nPhoto Credit: chanlsrfer via Compfight cc\nIn last week\u2019s post I discussed the fact that chaos dominates our world. Because that is true, our world is broken. It is sick on every level imaginable. Relationships of all kinds are in a state of decline and decay. Just look at what is going on in relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children, employers and employees, governments and citizens. Disease continues to run rampant (Ebola, anyone?). Crime and poverty seem to be beyond resolve regardless what laws or programs we put in place. Economies are unstable, causing a general sense of unrest. And the list goes on\u2026and on\u2026and on\u2026 Jesus Christ came as Healer and brought something to the table that makes a real difference in the midst of all the pain.\nThe healing Jesus brought was not limited to physical ailments, although He certainly healed those. He also released people from their bondages to demons. He released people from the oppression of religious traditions. He healed people from their feelings of isolation. He freed people from any sense that God had forgotten about them. I\u2019m sure everyone\u2019s spirits were lifted just by Him walking into town. Just His presence amoung the people brought a sense of healing.\nAll of this is because Jesus brought with Him the sense of shalom. While the western mind normally thinks of shalom merely being the Hebrew word for peace, it is so much more than that. Shalom usually refers to a state of affairs in which there is well-being and wholeness. It is a large and encompassing word that indicates that things are the way they ought to be. That was what Jesus brought to the table. Every time He restored a person on any level He brought things back to the way they were supposed to be.\nEvery word Paul used to describe the fruit of the Spirit is the exact opposite of the hard-hearted, mean-spirited, tight-fisted, lusting, grasping, angry spirit manifested in the lives of those dominated by the world system and the devil. This is the image of Christ put on display so others can see what God intended man to be from the beginning. This is man restored to what he ought to be. Because of the different attitude in our lives, we should bring healing to the atmosphere just by showing up! That\u2019s part of bringing healing to a hurting world.\nBesides the Presence of God\u2019s Holy Spirit in our lives, we have also been authorized to petition the King to release the resources of His Kingdom to meet the needs of a sick society. Look again at what the Lord Jesus said in John 16:23 \u2013 24.\nThis is the normal Christian life. This is at least part of what it means to be salt and light (Matthew 5:13 \u2013 16). Everywhere we go we should be raising others up by the Presence of God\u2019s Spirit and our authority to petition the King. Our world needs healers. Are you one? Are you willing to be? Bringing shalom to a sighing, dying, crying world is the natural by-product of living in the Reign.\nbrokenness, Chaos, Healer, Healing, healing lifestyle, hurt, Jesus Christ, Kingdom of God, shalom, sickness\n\u2190 The Answer to Our Chaos\nIt\u2019s That Time of Year Again\u2026 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Samples from the true crime library\nScripts and Novels\nLETTERS FROM THE HOLE (film script)\nJames Hart (alias), a New Jersey black man, has been on Death Row for over 33 years after being convicted on charges of Murder-for Hire. James was the only black man in the courtroom during his trial. His five white conspirators were dead or released.\nLFH is the compelling story of a black man on Death Row (the \u201cHole\u201d) who continues his struggle with a virtually all white justice system while awaiting his execution. LFH is an expedition into the original trial, and subsequent legal appeals. Based on true events, it peels back the skin of the crime drama to show the grim pettiness of: corruption, power, violence and deception in late 20th and early 21st century Nevada judicial system. The raw authenticity of the script stems from the fact that the story is based on letters from a black Death Row inmate to his unnamed white advocate with whom he continues to correspond to this day. The inmate has been in the Hole for 33+ years during which he has made many appeals. Within the last few years, he has received evidence withheld at trial that would have changed the verdict from the death sentence to acquittal. His case is currently on appeal.\nTHE ENEMY WEARS BLUE (full-length screenplay)\nA dedicated African-American police officer becomes the main target of a major reverse drug sting operation. The main character learns that he isn\u2019t immune to racism and discrimination just because he is a member of law enforcement. The screenwriter researched the backgrounds of many police officers and mobsters. The screenplay is easily adaptable to TV or a mini-series.\nTHE \u201cG\u201d (novel) This novel written by an inmate focuses on black gangsters in Chicago and San Francisco whose daily lives consist of: drugs, murder, and gang-related activities.\nFrom the opening of The \u201cG\u201d\n\u201cAs far as America was concerned, with its dog-eat-dog policies and super-solidified, Darwinian mental ideologies, Floyd didn\u2019t want to hear any of it. Six years in maximum-security Nevada, for attempted murder had completely embittered his mind into the proverbial system. It had not taken much for Floyd to get to his current state of being. He was a gangster, anyway, and murder was nothing new to him. Floyd had just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but it all gone bad with some Reno boys, and he had paid for it with time out of the wallet of his life. Floyd was not one to be robbed without recourse, and spent his sentence devising a plan to get back what he felt society have stolen. If all went well, which there was no reason he believed it should not, this would be Floyd's last dirt in America's grimy underworld. Gangsters retire just like anyone else \u2013 with a nest egg!\u201d\nSILENT STRUGGLE (novel) \u2013 Tom, 25-year-old white male, takes a drug beef for a friend and winds up in a cell in a maximum-security prison in California. Adam, his cellmate, is an independent that is not affiliated with the ruthless prison gang that literally controls the prison. In fact, the gang\u2019s leader Bob wants Adam dead. Tom\u2019s childhood friend George, in the same prison, is a high-ranking member of the gang, who wants Tom to join up. Tom refuses. Bob is furious upon hearing of Tom\u2019s refusal. He puts a hit on Tom and Adam who then get locked up after two members of the gang try to carry out the hit while on the weight pile. Meanwhile, the gang extends to the streets and is run by Ned, an older white supremacist and ex KKK member. He became Bob\u2019s mentor after some blacks raped and killed Bob\u2019s mother. The gang controls most of the drugs in California. Ned has a daughter who is married to Bob. She has an extramarital affair. Bob kills the man, but spares Ned\u2019s daughter. Bob still wants Adam and Tom dead, so he has Ned set up a hit from the streets. A guard and member of K Gestapo, a group of guards within the prison who kill and brutalize prisoners, guns down Tom and Adam on the exercise yard in lockup.\nGO TO TV LIBRARY LIST.",

John Markle\u2019s total financial contribution to the Foundation exceeded $17 million.\nMary R. Markle 1853 - 1927\nMary Estelle Robinson Markle was a generous supporter of several New York City charities, in particular those whose work benefitted impoverished women. She was widely recognized as John Markle\u2019s inspiration for the establishment of the Foundation, the first American institution of its kind to name both husband and wife as partners. This move, considered revolutionary for their times, affirmed the Markles' belief that the integration of a couple\u2019s financial and social interests can impel the important societal changes needed to serve the greater good.\nJP Morgan Jr 1867 - 1943\nMedicine and Medical Research\nJP Morgan Jr. whose family\u2019s great wealth was as legendary as their long tradition of philanthropic service, was a member of the very first Markle board of directors. He succeeded John Markle as president in 1933. Soon after, Morgan began sharpening the focus of Markle\u2019s original vision of \u201cadvancing the diffusion of knowledge,\u201d leading the Foundation to provide financial support to individuals and institutions dedicated to serving the general good of mankind through their work in the field of medicine. Morgan served as president until 1942.\nThomas William Lamont 1870 - 1948\nThomas William Lamont was a banker, diplomat, and philanthropist who was a presidential advisor to Woodrow Wilson during World War I and to Herbert Hoover during the Great Depression. He succeeded JP Morgan Jr. as president of Markle in 1942, and served in this capacity until 1947. He continued the work and vision of his predecessors by overseeing grant-making efforts that helped to promote advancement in medical science through research and academic excellence.\nGeorge Whitney 1885 - 1963\nMarkle Scholars-in-Medicine Program\nGeorge Whitney was a banker and financier who took up the reins as Markle\u2019s president after the death of Thomas Lamont. He further refined the Foundation\u2019s mission to support advancements in medicine by instituting programs that focused more specifically on cultivating a new generation of leaders in academic medicine. He enjoyed his hands-on role in the selection of Markle Scholars, engaging with the nominees personally and fostering the spirit of collaboration that would become a hallmark of the Markle tradition. Whitney served as president of Markle from 1948 to 1959, and as chairman from 1960 to 1963.\nJohn McFarlane Russell 1903 - 1986\nJohn McFarlane Russell became Markle\u2019s first executive director in 1946, serving under the presidencies of Thomas Lamont and George Whitney. In 1948, Russell launched the Markle Scholars-in-Medicine Program, through which 506 gifted practitioners from 91 medical schools around the country received more than $16 million in grants to encourage growth and strengthen the field of academic medicine. Russell was appointed president of Markle in 1960, and served in this capacity until 1969.\nLloyd N. Morrisett 1920 -\nMass Communications in a Democratic Society\nLloyd N. Morrisett sought a new direction for John and Mary Markle\u2019s original vision of \u201cpromoting the advancement and diffusion of knowledge,\u201d and found it at the dawn of the Information Age. As a former vice president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and one of the founding members of the Children\u2019s Television Workshop, which revolutionized educational programming with such milestone creations as Sesame Street, he began his tenure at Markle by initiating a program to advance the use of communications technologies to promote early childhood education, lifelong learning, and the ongoing cultivation of an informed citizenry.

        "raw_content": "\u201cman jumping above rock mountain\u201d by Blake Cheek on Unsplash\nLife Is Ever-Changing Flavors of Perfection\nThis morning, I woke up with a full bladder, as I often do. I walked to the bathroom feeling the fullness, and with what is often considered pain. As I walked, a thought appeared: \u201cIt\u2019s always been like this, and it\u2019s always changing.\u201d As I was peeing, I noticed the texture on the wall behind the toilet. It was all that was happening, well that and the feeling of urinating, and the sound of the pee hitting the water in the toilet. All of that was all that was happening.\nBack in the bedroom, I said to Cindy, \u201cThere are preferences. This early morning darkness, for example. It\u2019s preferable but preferable is just another flavor of perfection.\u201d\nI remembered my son jumping from great heights, from his bunk-bed, and from the top of a flight of stairs. I said to him, \u201cI don\u2019t want to stop you from doing that, but I want you to know that I feel scared that you might hurt yourself.\u201d Tears came into his eyes, and I asked him what seemed to be producing them, but he couldn\u2019t tell me.\nAfter recalling that this morning, I noticed sadness arising and then I noticed judgment: I am a bad father. When I told Cindy this story, she said, \u201cYou were clipping his wings.\u201d Yeah, I was teaching him about fear. \u201cYou might break your leg,\u201d I told him. I had recently broken my own ankle. Now the thought comes, \u201cSo what if he broke his leg?\u201d I guess he would have learned about fear one way or another.\nThere\u2019s no way to change what was, and there\u2019s also no way to change what is. These thoughts are appearing. These feelings are appearing. All this experiencing is happening.\nA year ago, I wrote as one of my goals, \u201cI am calm and confident at all times.\u201d I had no idea how that would be possible. I saw no path to it, but I chose it anyway. Little did I know that I was choosing death. Now, in spite of fear, I seem to be falling endlessly to my death.\nAfter years of searching to find my way back to the unconditional love that appeared while I was meditating on the floor of what would become my son\u2019s nursery, I\u2019m finally understanding that I was searching for a way to get back to what is always blindingly obvious.\nAll hope is slipping away. All hope of having any control, all hope of reality being any different than it is. On and off, it seems to be recognized that this has always been obvious. I have always been endlessly falling to my death; I was just pretending that I could do something about it. Anything can happen, including worry and irritation and self-judgment. All of these are just more flavors of perfection.\nLife clearly has no meaning or purpose. Nothing is happening for any reason. Yet, when it is allowed to be like it is, there is nothing lacking. There is no hole that needs to be filled with meaning and purpose.\nIf I am anything, I am the experiencing. I am the seeing, the hearing, the feeling, the thinking. If I am anything then I am all of this. If I am this, then it\u2019s impossible to reject any part of myself. It\u2019s happening regardless of what I think I want. If I am the fullness of what is obvious, then what else is needed? If I am this, then I am no \u201cthing,\u201d and I am always changing. If I am this, then I am inevitable, and I am death.\nBut there is no need for me in this. It has always been complete without me. This is just ever-changing flavors of perfection.",

        "raw_content": "Support for veteran athletes in Kerala, India.\nSandeep Zachariah\nAs part of the our family morning routine we take a walk in the beautiful Kanakkakunnu Palace premises. The palace premises is serene, clean and the felling is just awesome. Its even more heart warming to see people doing their morning walks, playing badminton, athletes practising their laps, people doing yoga, performing group laughing therapy sessions, families getting together for a good quality time.Today I happened met two veteran athletes who practices hard daily for national and international competitions, Suresh & Vijayan. They participate in the national and international events for 400m and swimming events. They have such passion towards sports and we sense the excitement in the conversations. They are over 60 years and I was blown away with the kind of fitness they have.\nSuresh has won gold medals nationally and internationally in swimming and track events, nationally and internationally. He recently took up swimming and practised for two years before winning medal in international events. He won gold in butterfly stroke event this year, a commendable feat! But the sad part is the support they get from the state and central government. There is absolutely no support what so ever in terms of money, encouragement, refunds or recognition from the governments side. Even their ticket fares were not refunded by the government. They have to spend all the money from their own pockets for the training, kits and travel for all the events. I am not really sure whether the government has funds to support these wonderful athletes. But I felt that they should definitely be supported and encouraged. I have decided to do my research and talk to people to get this information, the least I can do from my part or at least get the media cover the story.\nTheir views and insights on the development of sports in the city is wonderful. It would be great if people with similar views are included in the decision making process related to the field of sports. As citizens, we also have a responsibility to engage with the government\u200a\u2014\u200aproviding them with inputs and also holding them accountable for service delivery.\nThanks to SKG.\nhttp://www.sandeepzachariah.in/\nNever miss a story from Sandeep Zachariah, when you sign up for Medium.

        "raw_content": "Business, Professional Tips\nInspiration has Struck! Now, How Do You Sell an Idea?\nOnce you have a high-quality prototype of your invention, you\u2019re probably wondering how best to market and monetize your product. \u201cA common misapprehension with new inventors is that the hard work stops after the product is protected and designed; however, this is not the case. You have to be prepared to drive your product no matter which avenue you choose\u201d (source: http://www.innovate-design.co.uk/sell-idea/) when it comes to marketing it.\nUnderstanding Licensing Agreements\nBefore you sell your product idea, you\u2019ll need to obtain a firm grasp of licensing agreements so you can sign a contract fully aware of what you are getting into. Signing the contract or licensing agreement effectively allows the manufacturer to produce and market the product, providing you with royalties. There are various types of licensing agreements available in the UK; however, the three main types include an exclusive license, sole license, and non-exclusive license.\nThe exclusive license allows one company the right to produce and sell your product. The sole license allows both you and one company to produce and sell the product. The non-exclusive license allows you and any number of companies to produce and sell the product. Whatever license you choose, of course, will also come with a list of terms and conditions that both parties must abide by for the length of the contract, which may be set for several years or as few as six months.\nWhat Are the Benefits of Licensing?\nLicensing provides inventors with royalties from the wholesale profits made through the sale of their invention. Licensing minimizes the financial risk for inventors associated with the mass production of the product. Licensing also allows the inventor the opportunity to work with and learn from an established company that is adept at marketing and selling. Many inventors prefer to allow a company make and sell their products for a period of time before they (if they choose) decide to take on that enterprise on their own.\nFinally, some inventors are actually selling their ideas/inventions to the UK government that regularly works with innovators that have marketable ideas through programs geared for inventors. \u201cThe (UK) government has set a target for 50% spend on cloud, and 25% spending with small and medium business suppliers.\u201d (Source: http://www.settuk.com/blog/great-idea-sell-it-to-the-government) Whatever route you decide to take to market your invention, however, be sure to take the time you need to research its ins and outs before signing on the dotted line of any contract.\n1.

When he was in middle school, his family moved from his hometown of Shanghai, China to California. Traveling back and forth between the two international cities during his school years piqued Luo\u2019s interest in aviation, but it wasn\u2019t until a high school trip to the East Coast of the United States that Edison knew he found his niche.\n\u201cI fell in love with New York City and knew I wanted to move there to attend college,\u201d said Luo. \u201cMy passion for the aviation management sector, combined with the location of Vaughn College in the city, was the perfect fit for the two things that were driving my passion at the time.\u201d\nLuo enrolled in the airport management program at Vaughn in 2012, where he embraced his courses and excelled in the program.\n\u201cI chose airport management so I could learn about one of the most global businesses in the world,\u201d Luo explained. \u201cThe courses at Vaughn allowed me to appreciate other strategic backgrounds in the mainstream business sector.\u201d\nDuring his time at Vaughn, Luo launched into his field as vice president of the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) student chapter.\n\u201cWe organized two luncheons and invited over 10 industry experts in the aviation industry, including airport managers, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) officials, National Security Agency (NSA) members and aviation educators,\u201d said Luo. \u201cIt was an instrumental opportunity to hear them share their industry insights, knowledge and personal experiences with the students.\u201d\nThe chapter didn\u2019t stop there. They organized four field trips for a group of over 20 members and students to airport terminals, air sides (sections of the terminals where aircraft can be observed), land sides (sections of the terminals where the public has unrestricted access), and airline headquarters for educational events.\nLuo graduated valedictorian of his class in 2015 with a Bachelor of Science in airport management. At 24 years old, he\u2019s living back in his hometown of Shanghai, where he works as an analyst at a global information technology firm that specializes in market research.\n\u201cMy work has given me the grounding to appreciate some of the strategic drivers behind the cyber and technology industry,\u201d Luo explained. \u201cOne of my major clients is a worldwide national defense, aerospace and cybersecurity service provider.

I\u2019m a wife, a mother, and a working woman who cares deeply about our community, our region, and our state.\nMy grandparents were Italian and Irish immigrants that came to this country to find a better life. They worked with their hands to build a better future for my parents. I\u2019m so grateful for their hard work.\nMy mother was a passionate public educator. She was the kind of woman that knew teaching was much more than a job. It was a calling, a skill. My father was an abstract painter and professor at Youngstown State University. He constantly challenged my siblings and me to think differently and follow our dreams.\nSo after studying dance, I graduated from Ohio University and moved to New York City to pursue a career as a modern dancer.\nWhen I moved back home, I met a railroad engineer named Bob Hagan. He was running for the Ohio House. We fell in love on the campaign trail. It was the best time of my life.\nAfter he proposed, he joked that he was marrying me so I couldn\u2019t run against him.\nI took a job working at Youngstown State University and over the past 27 years, I\u2019ve risen to become the Director of the Performing Arts Series. All the while, I\u2019ve raised 2 kids on the Northside of Youngstown and fostered a serious political activism. I\u2019ve been a ferocious advocate of the arts in Youngstown as well, while supervising YSU staff members, administering YSU department budgets, and securing hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding for music and theater programs at YSU. Throughout, I\u2019ve been active in my community, holding positions on the board of directors for the Youngstown\nArea Urban League, the Youngstown Area Arts Council, Potential Development, and the Ballet Western Reserve.\nNow, I\u2019m ready to serve Youngstown, Struthers, Campbell, Lowellville, Coitsville, and Austintown in the Ohio House of Representatives. I bring to Columbus the lessons I\u2019ve learned as a community leader and the convictions I\u2019ve developed as a mother and citizen. I\u2019m shaking up the status quo with a woman\u2019s voice.

        "title": "Are Affordable Care Act (ACA) Costs Driving Workforce Management? - Mitrefinch",
        "raw_content": "Are Affordable Care Act (ACA) Costs Driving Workforce Management?\nAre Affordable Care Act (ACA)\u2026\nEmployee ProductivityWorkforce ManagementManagement\nWhen it comes to the benefits plan, the ultimate aim of most employers is retaining a high quality workforce and minimizing turnover. However, there are some organizations that aim to remain compliant with laws and regulations without spending exorbitantly. Also, there is a minority that doesn\u2019t have a specific benefits plan and reacts to change when it occurs.\nOrganizations have always found it difficult to make decisions related to employee benefits and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has added to the complexity of this task. A number of questions for organizations are raised by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has made many organizations realize the importance of having better data to understand their workforce, both in the past and going forward. In order to ensure compliance with the Affordable Care Act (ACA), employers need to do the following three things:\nOffer all but 5% of their eligible fulltime employees \u2018minimum acceptable\u2019 healthcare insurance\nEnsure the healthcare insurance plan they offer is \u2018affordable\u2019\nEnsure the healthcare insurance plan (s) offered and the contribution of the employer to these plans isn\u2019t set up to favorably treat certain employees\nThe cost for meeting the aforementioned requirements is something large employers will be required to pay. In case you didn\u2019t know it already, any organization with fifty or more fulltime employees is referred to as a large employer. Anyone working thirty hours a week is considered as a fulltime employee. Today, the requirements and costs of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are driving the strategies for managing workforce.\nToday, some employers are considering restricting the hours employees work each work to less than 30. The reason for this is obvious: employers can avoid the requirement to offer healthcare coverage to employees by limiting the hours they work each week to less than 30. Also, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has prompted some employers to consider a freelance-workforce for their organization. Fortunately for job seekers, the aforementioned employers are few and far between.\nThe U.S economy is fast recovering from the economic downturn or recession. As a result of this, many employers are looking for full-time rather than part-time employees. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the United States experienced a 9% increase in full-time employment between 2010 and 2015. The workforce landscaping in America is evolving. 18 to 24 year olds are entering the workforce while baby boomers continue to retire.\nThe costs and requirements of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) have not prevented employers from placing a higher priority on attracting, recruiting, and retaining full-time employees. More importantly, they haven\u2019t caused the employers to limit hours. In short, Affordable Care Act (ACA) costs are driving workforce management but not to a degree many imagine.\nCategories: Employee Productivity, Workforce Management, ManagementBy user_pepper_mitre 5th July 2017\nPreviousPrevious post:Top Time Tracking Software HacksNextNext post:Increasing Employee Engagement in a Diverse Workplace Setting",

Leaders from nearly 200 nations are poised to adopt a sweeping plank of global goals to combat poverty, inequality and climate change in the broadest and most comprehensive effort ever by the United Nations to tackle the world's ills.

Red Army looked for a new, modern semiautomatic pistol to replace obsolete Nagant M1895 revolvers and a variety of foreign semi-automatic pistols. One of the most popular foreign handguns, purchased in numbers during 1920s, was the famous Mauser C96, and the Red Army really liked its powerful 7.63mm cartridge, which, in slightly modified form ,selected for its future pistol of domestic design. Red Army tested several pistols of various designers, and in 1930 eventually selected the design of the famous Russian arms designer, Fedor Tokarev. During 1930 \u2013 1932 Red Army procured several thousands of new pistol, and after initial field testing requested several improvements, which resulted in the adoption of the model 1933 Tokarev pistol early in 1934. This pistol was manufactured in increased numbers prior to the Great Patriotic War. Before July 22, 1941, about 600 000 TT-33 pistols were delivered to Red Army. During war pistols were made in increasing numbers. In 1946 the TT was slightly modified to cut production costs, and its manufacture in USSR finally ceased circa 1952, with the adoption of the more modern 9mm Makarov PM pistol. However, TT served with the Soviet Army well until 1960s, and with the Soviet Militia (Police) \u2013 until 1970s. During late 1940s and 1950s USSR also supplied some of its new allies from Warsaw pact with licenses to manufacture TT, and it was produced in China, Hungary, North Korea, Poland, Romania and Yugoslavia, in more or less original forms. Most military TT pistols of non-Soviet manufacture were also in 7.62mm, with some commercial export versions available in 9x19mm Luger, and fitted with some sorts of manual safety.\nFor its time Tokarev TT was a formidable weapon, with good penetration and effective range. It was of good reliability and easy to maintain. What it lacked most was the manual safety, and its grip shape was not too comfortable.\nThe Tokarev TT is a short recoil operated, locked breech pistol. It uses Browning swinging link system, borrowed from the Colt M1911 pistol, modified to simplify production. The single action trigger had no safeties, other than disconnector to prevent out-of-battery fire, and a half-cock notch on the hammer. The only safe way to carry TT was to always have an empty chamber. The hammer unit was made as a single unit, easily detachable for cleaning and maintenance. Some years later Swiss designer Charles Petter developed similar system for the French Mle. 1935 pistol. Steel magazine held 8 cartridges. Fixed sights were factory zeroed for 25 meters. Grip panels were usually made of plastic or wood (wartime production).",

        "raw_content": "It was a rather uneventful trip, but I did learn a few lessons. So in my typical, bolded font loving way, I will share them with you, my readers.\nStaying in the suburbs is lovely, but the commute is awful | I have a dear family friend who lives in the suburbs of D.C., and she was gracious enough to offer me a place to stay during my trip. I was thrilled because her house is like another home for me whenever I visit the area. However, I did not consider how wearying the commute would be when I made plans to stay there. The conference was in downtown D.C., so I had to drive through congested, rush hour traffic each morning to get to the conference\u2019s opening sessions.\nI was by no means a fan of this, but it did give me the opportunity to study the minute details of the interior of my rental car, to learn how to muscle my way between a Mercedes and a Maserati on a crowded highway, and to realize that just because Apple Maps directs you to an airport access road doesn\u2019t mean that you should drive down it.\nOverall, the drive was frustrating, but you can\u2019t beat the feeling of returning to a warm home rather than a sterile hotel room after a long day.\nBeing the event planner for a conference full of event planners must be a nightmare | From the minute the conference began, people in the audience complained about the details of the event. This makes sense since it was a room full of people who plan events for a living, but the whole scenario made me feel bad for the people responsible for putting on the conference.\nThere were comments about how the registration process could have been more efficient, how the refreshments weren\u2019t adequately proportioned, how the A/V equipment could have been set up in a more user-friendly way, etc.\nThe whole experience taught me that a) I would never in a million years want to put on an event for people whose livelihood centers on doing the same thing b) I was surrounded by real professionals from the field from whom I could glean loads of helpful information.\nA conference can sometimes be like a middle school cafeteria | I arrived a little late to the first full day of the conference because of the aforementioned commute. This meant that the table full of people whom I had sat with at the previous night\u2019s sessions was full. I panicked for a moment but did my best to suppress the feeling while making my way over to one of the few tables that had an open seat.\nI approached the table and cautiously asked if I could join them. The most talkative person in the group said that I could and emphatically motioned for me to join them. We made the usual small talk about where we were all from and then turned our attention to the presenter who had just begun speaking.\nThroughout the morning, I asserted myself as the funny person of the table and came up with such memorable lines as \u201cTupac the nuns\u201d and \u201cCluster-cuss.\u201d Neither of those is an inherently witty line, but that didn\u2019t matter to my group. They laughed uncontrollably whenever I quipped about something and elevated my already dangerously high ego to a new level altogether.\nOnce the morning sessions had concluded, \u201cthe group\u201d (as I had taken to calling us) made plans to head to a nearby Shake Shack for lunch. They, of course, made sure that the popular people of the table were for sure joining, and we made our way downtown in a group similar to The Plastics from Mean Girls. The whole scenario felt a bit cliquish, like middle school, but that didn\u2019t stop me from enjoying my seat at the \u201ccool kids\u201d table.\nI am now a midwesterner | I have prided myself for quite some time on not being raised in Ohio. Whenever people asked where I was from, I would proudly tell them that I was from New York (leaving out the Western part) and follow it up by saying that I \u201cresided\u201d in Ohio. Well, like it or not, that doesn\u2019t seem to do the trick anymore.\nI met quite a few people during my time at the conference, and I was consistently shocked and horrified by how many people would act so unsurprised when I told them that I was from Ohio. I had people say things like, \u201cYeah, that totally makes sense\u201d or \u201cI definitely pegged you as a corn-fed guy when I saw you.\u201d Hearing statements like that bordered on being full-blown traumatic, but I would always do my best to smile and compliment them on their keen, state-guessing sense.\nI guess that the lesson learned from these cringe-worthy moments is that you can do your best to disassociate from a place that you don\u2019t think is especially cool, but in the end, people are going to make assumptions about your background regardless of what you say. So I guess that you may now refer to me as Dan the Ohioan.\nSo that was my trip in a nutshell. There were many more practical lessons pertaining to my job that I learned, but I figured it best to save those for a debriefing with my supervisor rather than my blog. I left the conference feeling more confident to tackle my upcoming events and buoyed by the fact that I have begun establishing a network with professionals from my field who I can rely on when I need advice in the future.\nPosted in Amusing Anecdotes, Recent PostsTagged Case Conference, conference, conversation, event planning, inspiration, interesting, learning, life, networking, story, travel, washington D.C., writing\nPrev That Time I Walked Out of a Dance Audition\nNext That Time I Bowled with an Artist, a Diva, and a Sociopath",

        "raw_content": "Home > Reviews\t> THE IRON GIANT \u2013 Michael Kamen\nTHE IRON GIANT \u2013 Michael Kamen\nThe thing which distinguishes The Iron Giant from the vast majority of other film scores is that, by and large, there are no recurring themes anywhere. Written in the short gap between finishing his historic \u201cS&M\u201d collaboration with Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra and re-commencing work on his millennium symphony, \u201cThe New Moon in the Old Moon\u2019s Arms\u201d, composer Michael Kamen tackled The Iron Giant like a mini-symphony of its own, with each individual cue a standalone piece intended to depict a certain feeling or moment in childhood.\nAdapted from the popular book by Ted Hughes, which was itself taken from a Scandinavian fable, The Iron Giant has become one of the most critically acclaimed and universally lauded animated motion pictures in history. Set in the 1950s at the height of the Cold War, it tells the story of a young fella named Hogarth Hughes who, while wandering in the forest near his suburban American home, finds a huge metal robot sitting in a clearing. It transpires that this metallic behemoth is capable of speech and interaction, and soon Hogarth and the giant become friends \u2013 despite the fact that a whole host of paranoid FBI agents are intent on capturing the gentle creation. With a voice cast that includes Jennifer Aniston and Harry Connick Jr., and with Brad Bird (the director of many Simpson\u2019s episodes) at the helm, the simple sentiments and gentle parables of The Iron Giant have turned it into almost an instant classic.\nAs the film is set in the fifties, Bird specifically asked Kamen to become \u201cinspired\u201d by the music of Bernard Herrmann, and to try to create the richly textured sound one might have heard in the film music written by him during that period. In an attempt to achieve this, Kamen took himself off to Prague to record his score with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, and the mileage seems to have been worth it. Somehow, there is an extra feeling of depth and quality to the score, which ultimately makes the album seem a far better listening experience that might otherwise have been achieved had the score been performed by a contracted group of Los Angeles musicians.\nWhile some people may be unable to grasp the concept of a film score having no recurring themes, and while I myself often discredit scores for that very same thing, I actually believe that Kamen\u2019s approach here is absolutely spot-on. There are minor motifs, for Hogarth and for the Giant himself, which occasionally reappear, but for the most part Kamen\u2019s music plays fluidly, almost like a symphony of its own. The score develops a series of different feelings as it progresses, initially sounding frightening and turbulent, gradually changing to be tentatively attractive, introspective and thoughtful, before becoming heartbreakingly operatic and emotional as the curtain comes down. This is a score unlike anything Kamen has composed before, and is without a doubt the most intelligent and creatively structured work of his career to date.\nThe album is full of highlight cues, but my personal favorites include \u2018Eye of the Storm\u2019, which opens the score with a chaos of churning and bubbling dissonance; opening; \u2018The Giant Wakes\u2019, which features some lovely innocent woodwind performances; \u2018Cat and Mouse\u2019, in which flighty woodwinds and massive tubas engage in some superb interplay; \u2018Bedtime Stories\u2019 and \u2018Souls Don\u2019t Die\u2019, with their tenderly evocative string writing; \u2018Space Car\u2019, a cue composed of sheer joy and youthful ebullience; \u2018The Army Arrives\u2019 with its threatening snares and martial overtones; and the whole 12-minute finale from \u2018The Giant Discovered\u2019 onwards, which runs the gamut of emotions and eventually reaches a magical musical peak of almost Williams-eqsue proportions.\nFor many film score fans, Michael Kamen is a love-him-or-loathe-him composer who, despite having written such wonderful works as Mr. Holland\u2019s Opus and Don Juan DeMarco, still has a fair amount of detractors. Hopefully, The Iron Giant will dispel the misconceptions about Kamen\u2019s talent and make more people aware of the gifts he has. He has certainly matured in my eyes. Such was the film\u2019s uncharacteristically poor box office performance, I can virtually guarantee that Kamen won\u2019t be officially recognized by the Academy in February, but he is most deserving.

        "raw_content": "5 Surprising Ways Apps are Changing How Schools Work\nEd Tech, Guest Blogger, mrkempnz, Social Media\nToday\u2019s blog is a guest post from Neeraj Sharma. Neeraj is an avid reader and writer with an undying passion for making people aware of the latest tech with his blogs. He has written a myriad of articles related to tech, apps, games, social media, and entrepreneurship. At present, Neeraj is contributing articles on applify.co\nWhat are your memories of school?\nMine are old classrooms, blackboards, heavy books, and boring lectures that drained out of energy. The most days that I can recall are the ones when teachers either asked us to copy everything written on the chalkboard or picked up a student at random and asked him/her to recite the whole lesson loud in front of the whole class. As a result, many students fell asleep. They woke up after either hearing the teacher\u2019s scolding or receiving the hit of a chalk thrown at them with super speed (some teachers had such a precise aim that the chalk landed directly on the head). Poor souls! They didn\u2019t even know how to react at that moment.\nImage Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyzJwMlatn8\nMy school days are full of such stories. Yours might also be the same. Though, the scenario of today is entirely different. Schools are no longer the scary places from where kids used to run away. Things have changed. Smart classes have replaced traditional classrooms. In place of carrying a bag full of books to school, kids now just bring a single device from which they can get access to the entire syllabus (and the world). Instead of scrolling through books, they learn interactively from apps. Not only this, when they have any query, they don\u2019t just sit idle. Instead, they open the browser on their smartphones/device and do research. Some even use apps like Duolingo and Pocket Thesaurus to learn new skills.\nImage Source: https://www.goconqr.com/en/examtime/blog/mobile-learning-apps-future-of-education/\nTechnology and apps are certainly bringing a revolution. Ain\u2019t it? However, it\u2019s not just the lives of students that apps have changed. They\u2019ve also improved the working in schools. Here\u2019s how:\nLearning has become more interactive\nMost kids hated studies during our time because they lacked interaction. Who wouldn\u2019t fall asleep when the only thing you\u2019re expected to do is to recklessly note down what teachers say without even asking a single question in return? Even the most dedicated students will lose interest after some time. Although, similar is not the case after the arrival of mobile apps. Apps and games engage students in a healthy thought process. Hence, they understand concepts more easily and keep their attention going in the lecture. Perhaps, that\u2019s the reason students are loving the inclusion of apps and games in their curriculum. According to a recent US survey mentioned in this blog, over 54% students said that they feel more involved in a class that uses technology and 55% want their instructors to use more education apps and games.\nCommunication between parents and teachers has improved\nBack in the old days, the only time parents had interaction with teachers was either in parent-teacher conferences or special events. As a result, they rarely had an idea if their kid was performing well in school or if he/she was involved in any wrong activity. However, now communication apps like WhatsApp and SeeSaw have bridged this gap between parents and teachers. Communication and collaboration has never been easier. Breaking down the four walls of the classroom.\nApps have made it easy to keep track of a student\u2019s activities\nKeeping the complete record of student\u2019s class-performance and sending it to parents was a big challenge. Schools sent academic report cards home no doubt. Still, some kids were masters in hiding them or forging parents\u2019 signatures. Yet schools have grown a lot smarter now. Almost each of them has a dedicated app that tracks complete activities of the students and shares with parents. If they didn\u2019t bring the homework copy, the app will send a message to parents. If they bunked school, parents will receive notifications. Even attendance and class test reports are sent on mom and dad\u2019s phone. Nothing is hidden. While kids might think it as strictness, these apps have helped in increasing the coordination between parents and the school, ensuring that students don\u2019t fall prey to any bad habits.\nApps have saved a lot of time\nIn most of the schools, students had to manually submit fee at the counter in early days. The process was time-consuming as they had to stand in queues for hours. Although, now they can pay their fee directly from the app. This saves a lot of time, which they can use for studying or learning new skills. There are so many other uses for apps to save time too.\nIt has become possible for the school to reach every student\nTraditional school systems found it hard to connect with all students. Only a handful of students in the class received teacher\u2019s attention. Rest went unnoticed. Mobile apps have solved this problem. Nowadays, if a student is not able to discuss their queries in class, they can approach the teacher via connection tools and ask questions. Pretty simple and straightforward. Ain\u2019t it?\nIn simple words, Mobile apps are no less than a divine blessing. Many schools have benefited from them. Their management has become a lot better and students have started performing well. Also, there is discipline among them. Seeing this, I can say that there will be high demand for education apps in the future. Still, the quality of these apps is still a major concern for me. Indeed, there are education apps on Google Play and the Apple App store that are strong and social media helps share the best and worst apps for education. Here is my suggestion to all people out there who create education apps:\n\u201cIf you really want students to download your app and recommend it to friends, offer them the best experience so that they can actually learn and grow. Just don\u2019t lure them with something that promises a lot but offers only a little. For reference, you can take help from this guide.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Posted Dec 24, 2009 by Greg Albo\nTopics: Climate Change , Ecology , Financialization\nPlaces: Palestine , Venezuela\nThe United Nations conference to address climate change in Copenhagen over the last week has illustrated several crucial features of contemporary politics, as Obama completes a year in power, the NATO plots a military surge into the war spanning from Palestine to Afghanistan, and an economic recovery staggers along.\nThree Features of Political Climate\nFirst, in the current balance of social forces in North America and globally, it is impossible to get committed political action to change the existing economic model of development, in the specific sense of a reform of the fossil fuel-dependent, outward-oriented, finance-led, labor-repressing economic model of neoliberal globalization and in the larger sense of a rupture with the ecologically-destructive profit-driven system of capitalism.\nSecond, it is clear that, despite the financial crisis of 2007-09, there has been no break with the power structures of neoliberalism: any interference in market relations to shift distributional relations (including how much humans withdraw from nature) is blocked (as opposed to government interventions to preserve the power of banks and financial capital); finance capital remains a central force backing the financialization and commodification of the environment; and U.S.-led imperialism remains at the core of global decision-making and the ordering of the relations between states. While there are cracks and modulations in these power structures (notably, the rise of China, Brazil, and India), there is no dramatic shift in power so as to open new vistas for alternative development (although the interventions at Copenhagen of Bolivia, Venezuela \u2014 leaving aside some aspects of their own oil and gas policies for the moment \u2014 and others in the ALBA pact were notable for their insistence that an alternative path is more necessary than ever).\nThird, the turn to market environmentalism of so much of the environmental movement in North America has been in equal parts political and ecological disasters. This effort to form alliances with the capitalist classes and the state within the confines of neoliberalism has done nothing to advance solutions to the most crucial ecological issue of the day: carbon emissions reduction. At the same time, it has shifted the ecology movement to the political right, where it spends most of its time in concertation with governments and business and the rest spinning out green entrepreneurship and localism as solutions to global economic and environmental crises.\nA Green-Left Alternative\nWhat has been made invisible by the ecology movement\u2019s tragic embrace of the market over the last decade as a solution to ecological problems and especially greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is this: the best GHG reduction strategy that can be immediately implemented \u2014 and also better for the long run in its focus on the quality of human development and not the quantity of capitalist growth \u2014 lies with many of the traditional demands of the Left.\nSome of these traditional demands are: work time reduction and increased leisure time; massive expansion of collective services such as daycare, education, parks, museums, and other recreation facilities; increased funding of the \u201cgrant economy\u201d for cultural workers, community festivals, and the like; a mass shift to public transportation funded by long-term (50-year) bond floats; major income redistribution given the huge class differences in causing environmental degradation; increased worker input into the health and ecological conditions of labor processes; expansion of the cooperative and worker-controlled enterprise sector as a basis for building alternative local communities; debt relief for the global south; mass transfer of sustainable technologies; sharply limited growth in the north to provide room for growth in less developed zones and to diminish inequality; and so forth.\nFrom this foundation, it is possible to integrate energy-switching, retrofitting, carbon taxes, and so forth in a way that actually builds better social and ecological relations in a system of responsible production. Instead, the mainstream of the North American environmental movement has been absorbed in the politically fruitless and intellectually dishonest pursuit of a financial-market-led cap-and-trade strategy for carbon emissions reduction \u2014 like bloodletting, a cure that can only worsen the disease.\nStalling \u2014 But Not Yet Breaking \u2014 Cap-and-Trade\nThere is only one good thing to have come out of the Copenhagen debacle. The sordidness of the final agreement may well stall extensive implementation of the cap-and-trade system for carbon emissions and the \u201cclean development mechanisms\u201d foisted on the global south \u2014 the latest mechanism of imperialism \u2014 in the name of GHG reduction.\nWell, maybe another positive note: it showed clearly the Conservative government of Stephen Harper in Canada toadying behind the U.S., a bought-and-paid-for shill of the Alberta oil and gas industry and as strong a defender of neoliberalism as exist anywhere on the planet. Now the whole world can see what Canadians should know well: the \u201cugly Canadian\u201d can no longer be shielded by nationalist cultural mythologies.\nGreg Albo is Associate Professor at the Department of Political Science of York University.\nAbout Greg Albo\nView all posts by Greg Albo \u2192",

Boring, the background of this work is very close to that of La courbe de la Seine \u00e0 Saint Cloud [The Bend in the Seine at Saint Cloud]. Both were probably painted on the hill at Le Pecq. It is in fact the road to Marly at Le Pecq with the Chemin de la B\u00e8gue and the Chemin des Vignes Benette on the left. In the distance the hill and terrace of Saint-Germain-en-Laye are outlined on the left, with the hills of Cormeilles in the distance on the right. In the middle distance, we can make out the bend in the Seine and the road bridge and railway bridge that cross it.\nSisley was fond of depicting roads and paths which in his view invited the spectator to come into the painting: \"the spectator should be led along the road that the painter indicates to him, and from the first be made to notice what the artist himself has felt. Every picture shows a spot with which the artist himself has fallen in love.\"\nIn this composition, ample space is accorded to the sky, which assumed great importance in Sisley\u2019s eyes. He was fascinated by the shapes and movements of the clouds, and admitted to always starting a painting with the sky.\nProvenance: purchased by Domenica Walter in 1953\nAlfred Sisley18391899\nSigned and dated bottom right, in dark blue: Sisley 75\n\u00a9 RMN-Grand Palais (mus\u00e9e de l'Orangerie) / Thierry Le Mage",

Many actually believe that Beowulf is the monster in the tale. That certainly is not the case \u2013 at least, not a literal monster-in this tale. It\u2019s one of the oldest fantasy tales ever written, and quite possibly the most and important as it had a heavy influence on modern day powerhouses such as Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones.\nThe story takes place in Europe, describing a great beast known as Grendel, who was said to be the descendant of Cain. He was in constant pain, while the Danish people were always happy and celebrating. One day, his anger and desires got the best him. Calling that which follows \u201cgruesome\u201d would be an understatement. Word gets out, and a famous warrior named Beowulf shows an interest in slaying the beast. I wouldn\u2019t want to spoil the rest, but it is quite a tale.\nThough I only read a shortened version of the epic in school, I was quite impressed with its deep symbolism and rich attention to detail. I\u2019ll admit, I was underwhelmed at first, simply because the story can seem quite shallow and generic if merely looked through. But if looked through carefully, and with proper research, you can see the depth. For example, Grendel represents an outcast or an outsider, and since he is linked with the Bible, many also link him to the devil. It is symbols such as these that provide new layers of context to the tale, and sheds new light on the characters and their characteristics.\nAlso, being a fan of the medieval genre, I appreciated the world that the author created, with all of the traditional aspects that make a great fantasy story, from monsters to magic, kingdoms to knighthood. Beowulf is quite an impressive story, and a must read for any fantasy genre fan, since this is what truly kicked off the entire genre. There are different versions of Beowulf, so best to choose the one that suites your time and interest.\n-Ahmed H., 12th grade\nBeowulf is available, in various translations and critical thought, for checkout from the Mission Viejo Library. It is also available for download on Overdrive and Hoopla.\nPosted in Book Reviews\t| Tagged beowulf, classic literature, dragons, epic poetry, monsters\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "Mark\u2019s #1 \u2013 Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk (224 pages)\nThe first rule about Fight Club is you don\u2019t talk about Fight Club (can I blog about it?).\nI had never read this book or seen the movie, yet I knew this rule \u2013 it has nettled its way into our collective conscienceless. So I was curious when I saw Fight Club listed on several \u2018must read\u2019 book lists.\nThis book was as intriguing as it was bizarre. During the day, the unnamed narrator lives out a meaningless existences in a mundane office job. At night he battles insomnia. His psychologist sends him to several support groups for various life threatening diseases. Here he feels alive by staring mortality in the faces of the attendees around the group sessions. Eventually, the narrator becomes fascinated with Tyler Durden, a young enigmatic man who develops the idea behind Fight Club. These fights between men in the basements of various bars draw men from all walks of life. Here, as they get battered and bruised, they feel alive for the first time, and the clubs begin to spread throughout the city and the country. Tyler goes further by developing Project Mayhem \u2013 his attempt to implement anarchy and rescue society from the filth it has become.\nThe satirical style and dialogue between characters reminded me of the writings of Flannery O\u2019Connor. I was often confused by the plot and dialogue. Occasionally I would have to read the wikipedia article to find my place in the bigger picture of the story.\nThe takeaway from this book for me is that we, especially men, long for our lives to matter. We long to break out of the ordinary. We long to be in the fight. There is a kind of life and purpose to it. Of course, the direction taken and the conclusions drawn by the novel\u2019s characters is often vile and off base\u2026 yet this book has clearly struck a chord with people (4.5 star rating with nearly 1400 reviews on Amazon). I believe we were made to be in the fight, to make our lives count. However, we must pick the right fight.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Patient and Family Leadership Network\nAbout the Patient and Family Leadership Network\nThe Patient & Family Leadership Network (PFLN) supports ongoing communication, collaboration, and synergy among patient and family thought leaders to advance their equal and full engagement across the health care continuum: as equal and effective partners in care decisions, at the community and organizational level through continuous improvement initiatives, and at the policy level. The PFLN is a vibrant virtual Network that engages the nation\u2019s patients and families in serving as effective leaders and advisors to the National Academy of Medicine and others to achieve better culture, better care, better value, and better health for all in a healthcare system that continuously learns and improves.\nJoin the Patient and Family Leadership Network\nLearn more about the Patient and Family Leadership Network\nHarnessing Evidence and Experience to Change Culture: A Guiding Framework for Patient and Family Engaged Care, a discussion paper from the NAM, asserts that a cultural shift to \u201cpatient and family engaged care\u201d is an essential driver to achieving the \u201cQuadruple Aim\u201d outcomes of better culture, better care, better health, and lower costs. By introducing the term patient and family engaged care, the authors recognize the evolution of the field toward embracing partnership\u2014working with patients and families, not simply doing to and for them. In addition, the authors lay out a novel Guiding Framework for creating and sustaining a culture of patient and family engaged care. Grounded in scientific evidence and the lived experience of patients, their care partners, practitioners, and health system leaders, the Guiding Framework provides a pathway for organizations to create and sustain a culture of patient and family engaged care, including practical real-world examples. Download the paper by clicking here.\nPlanetree\u2019s Consumer-friendly Summaries of Harnessing Evidence and Experience to Change Culture: A Guiding Framework for Patient and Family Engaged Care: Planetree\u2019s Patient and Family Partnership Council developed two consumer-friendly summaries of the NAM discussion paper Harnessing Evidence and Experience to Change Culture: A Guiding Framework for Patient and Family Engaged Care. The two summaries are for two distinct audiences\u2013healthcare professionals and patients and families themselves. Focusing on the evidence base supporting patient- and family-engaged care, and \u201creal world\u201d suggestions for making patient and family engagement work, respectively, these summaries highlight the key elements of the discussion paper with applications for real life.\nDownload the summary for health professionals >>\nDownload the summary for patients and families >>\nThe Resource Compendium for Patient and Family Health Care Leadership was created to assist and to inform volunteer patient & family council leaders and such leaders have contributed valuable feedback from its inception to its completion. It presents summary informationon available evidence and information about the impact of patient and family engagement on health care outcomes and care improvement. It is intended to be a continuously updated living resource,and suggestions for inclusion are encouraged.\nNAM\u2019s Action Collaborative on Clinical Well-Being and Resilience\nThe Learning Health Systems Series\nTo facilitate progress toward the development of a learning health system \u2013 in which science, informatics, incentives, and culture are aligned for continuous improvement and innovation, with best practices seamlessly embedded in the delivery process and new knowledge captured as an integral by-product of the delivery experience \u2013 the Roundtable on Value & Science-Driven Health Care has marshaled the insights of the nation\u2019s leading experts to explore in detail the prospects, and the necessity, for transformational change in the fundamental elements of health and health care. The assessments are reported in the 11 volumes of the IOM Learning Health System Series. Download the series >>\nIn Patients and Health Care Teams Forging Effective Partnerships, the authors provide insight into how, by including patients and families as active participants in the health care team, the broad systemic movement toward team-based care can be enhanced. The discussion paper, published by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), builds upon previous work regarding the core principles of team-based care in order to help achieve three aims of better health, better care, and lower costs. The authors are participants in the Best Practices Innovation Collaborative of the IOM Roundtable on Value & Science-Driven Health Care. In their paper, the authors undertook both a detailed review of the literature and one-on-one interviews with patients and clinicians to suggest how to create health care teams that involve patients and meet their needs. Read the discussion paper >>\nShared Decision-Making Strategies for Best Care: Patient Decision Aids\nIn Shared Decision-Making Strategies for Best Care: Patient Decision Aids, the authors suggest concrete steps to fully integrate the ideals and practices of shared decision making (SDM) into routine clinical practice. The discussion paper, published by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), is a product of participants in the IOM\u2019s Evidence Communication Innovation Collaborative. The authors identify key steps to shift expectations and behaviors of patients and clinicians: certifying decision aids, establishing measurement standards for SDM, using health information technology to facilitate information exchange, and expanding the role of employers and payers in supporting certified decision aids. In support of these steps, the authors summarize their views of the compelling case for implementing SDM, and underscore the potential benefits. Read the discussion paper >>\nHealth Literacy and Numeracy: Workshop Summary\nAlthough health literacy is commonly defined as an individual trait, it does not depend on the skills of individuals alone. Health literacy is the product of the interaction between individuals\u2019 capacities and the health literacy-related demands and complexities of the health care system. Specifically, the ability to understand, evaluate, and use numbers is important to making informed health care choices. Download the summary >>\nSocial Networking Sites and the Continuously Learning Health System: A Survey\nIn Social Networking Sites and the Continuously Learning Health System: A Survey, the authors report findings that 94 percent of U.S. adult social media users with health conditions strongly endorse sharing their health data anonymously to help improve health care. The discussion paper and a companion commentary were written by participants in the IOM\u2019s Evidence Communication Innovation Collaborative. The survey also finds that respondents\u2019 willingness to share data for society\u2019s benefit outweighs lingering concerns that sharing health data still carries some degree of risk. For instance, 76 percent of American social media users with a medical condition believe that data from their personal health record potentially could be used without their knowledge. The authors conclude by arguing for balanced policies that allow for the sales of goods and services based on users\u2019 data, but also protect users from potential harm. Read the discussion paper >>\nMaking the Case for Continuous Learning from Routinely Collected Data\nIn Making the Case for Continuous Learning from Routinely Collected Data, the authors suggest that in order to achieve better health, patients and clinicians will need to view every health care encounter as providing an opportunity to improve outcomes. The paper cites widely reported examples of routinely collected digital health data being applied to improve services, inform patients, avoid harm, and speed research. Developed by individual participants from the IOM\u2019s Clinical Effectiveness Research Innovation Collaborative, it asserts that patients and the public are the most effective advocates for resetting expectations that their data be used to advance knowledge and support continuous learning. Citing examples of efforts to engage patients and clinicians in continuous learning efforts, the authors see broader application of these approaches as critical to ensuring the success of a learning health system in achieving better care, lower costs and improved health. Read the discussion paper >>\nThis Discussion Paper, Core Principles & Values of Effective Team-Based Health Care, presents basic principles and personal values that characterize interprofessional team-based care. Developed by individual participants from the IOM\u2019s Best Practices Innovation Collaborative, the authors identified key findings from health care literature, and used interviews with eleven teams located across the United States to clarify how these factors shape effective team-based care. The principles and values reviewed are intended to help guide clinicians, patients, administrators, and other stakeholders in health care seeking high-value team-based care that focuses on the goals and priorities of patients and their families. In its conclusion, the discussion paper outlines four themes to guide the growth of team-based health care delivery. Read the discussion paper >>\nBest Care at Lower Cost: The Path to Continuously Learning Health Care in America\nDemanding Value from Our Health Care: Motivating Patient Action to Reduce Waste in Health Care\nHealth care costs have doubled as a share of the economy over the past three decades (Martin et al., 2012), causing stress on family, employer, and government budgets. Furthermore, these expenses contain substantial waste and often do not improve patient health. One important way to improve this situation is by engaging patients and the public around value. There are numerous challenges to achieving this goal, including several unanswered questions about how best to routinely approach patients on the issue. Yet, some insights are developing.

        "raw_content": "Prevalence of Obesity Among Adults and Youth: United States, 2015\u20132016\nQuestions for Craig M. Hales, M.D., Lead Author on \u201cPrevalence of Obesity Among Adults and Youth: United States, 2015\u20132016\u201d\nQ: There seems to be confusion about whether obesity is going up or is stable. Could you clarify based on your new data?\nCH: The trends in obesity prevalence are different for adults 20 years and over than they are in youth 2-19 years. Since 1999-2000 there has been an increasing trend among adults. The prevalence of obesity was 30.5% among adults in 1999-2000 and has increased almost 10 percentage points to 39.6% in 2015-2016. Almost 4 in 10 adults had obesity in 2015-2016, and that is the highest prevalence of obesity ever reported among all US adults.\nAmong youth, there was a significant increase in obesity prevalence between 1999-2000 and 2015-2016, however, between 2003-2004 and 2013-2014 the prevalence was unchanged at 17% and there was no statistically significant change between 2013-2014 and 2015-2016. We are continuing to analyze trends in both youth and adults.\nQ: Would it be accurate to say that, among adults at least, the percentage who have obesity hasn\u2019t changed much in recent years, but has definitely increased over the past 10 or 15 years?\nCH: The prevalence of obesity among adults has definitely increased since 1999-2000. Since 1999-2000 the prevalence has increased almost 10 percentage points from 30.5% to 39.6%, or almost 40%. From one 2-year cycle to the next, changes in obesity prevalence may appear small, but when we look over time, we are better able to see trends.\nQ: Between adolescents, school-aged kids, and pre-schoolers, what are the most significant patterns among our youth, based on these new data?\nCH: Among youth, these data show that school-aged kids and adolescents have a higher prevalence of obesity than pre-schoolers. This is the same pattern we have seen in previous reports from this survey.\nQ: The U.S. has changed quite a bit demographically over the past 30 years, and this corresponds with large increases in the percentages who are obese. With obesity prevalence being significantly higher among U.S. Hispanics, would it be accurate to say that at least some of the increase in obesity prevalence in the U.S. is a characteristic of demographic change?\nCH: It\u2019s true that both non-Hispanic black and Hispanic adults have a higher prevalence than non-Hispanic whites and non-Hispanic Asians, although the patterns are different in men and women. Previous reports have found that trends over time are not explained by these demographic changes.\nFor this report we focused on a cross-section of the US population in 2015-2016, but we are continuing to analyze the data, including the impact of demographic changes on trends over time.\nQ: What finding in your new report did you find most striking?\nCH: What I found most striking is that almost 40% of adults in the US had obesity in 2015-2016. This is almost 10 percentage points higher than the prevalence was in 1999-2000. It is the highest prevalence of obesity ever reported among all US adults.\nQ: What is the best advice for those who want to control their weight?\nCH: I recommend that anyone who wants to lose weight talk to their healthcare provider. People can also learn more about US diet and physical activity guidelines at health.gov.\nQ: Anything else you\u2019d like to note about the new study?\nCH: Measured height and weight is the gold standard for generating accurate estimates of obesity prevalence. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey is unique in that it combines both interviews in the home and physical examinations in mobile examination centers, and it is the only national survey where people\u2019s height and weight are physically measured.\nOther surveys report obesity prevalence based on self-reported height and weight, but several studies have found serious inaccuracies with self-reported or proxy-reported height and weight. Among adults and teens, self-reported height tends to be overreported and weight is underreported, although misreporting can vary among subgroups of the population \u2013 but this misreporting leads to underestimates of obesity prevalence.",

        "raw_content": "Embolization before stereotactic radiosurgery for the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations.\nA Iyer, M D\u2019Souza, GK Steinberg\nJournal of neurosurgical sciences, 2018\nEmbolization is commonly used for the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) prior to stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Due to mixed outcomes, however, its use remains controversial. This article is a review of recent studies assessing the efficacy of pre-radiosurgical embolization for brain AVMs. Articles published between 1990 and 2017 on the subject of pre-radiosurgical AVM embolization were retrieved from PubMed. A literature review was performed on the selected studies to compare obliteration, hemorrhage, and complication rates from groups treated with embolization prior to radiosurgery to those treated without embolization. Overall, the studies reviewed demonstrate mixed results on the efficacy of pre-radiosurgical AVM embolization. For large, complex AVMs, embolization prior to radiosurgery may have a role in carefully selected patients performed by experienced practitioners.\nNext story Predictive value of early MRI findings on neurocognitive and psychiatric outcomes in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.\nPrevious story Meta-analysis and systematic review of population-based epidemiological studies in idiopathic intracranial hypertension.",

        "title": "4A ROUNDUP: Liberty eyes playoff push | Nevada Preps",
        "raw_content": "4A ROUNDUP: Liberty eyes playoff push\nStarting with Friday\u2019s game against visiting Silverado, Liberty\u2019s football team embarked on a three-step program to reach the playoffs for the first time.\nThe Patriots can count step one as complete.\nLiberty erupted for 21-point second-quarter points \u2014 including 14 off of turnovers \u2014 then held off a second-half Skyhawks rally for a 21-18 victory over eighth-ranked Silverado.\nPatriots coach Rich Muraco said he told his team this week that it had a chance to make the playoffs based on winning its next three games.\n\u201cWe preached all week that if we want to make the playoffs, we had to win tonight, then against Del Sol and Coronado,\u201d Muraco said. \u201cWe hold it in our hands. And tonight I was pleased with our performance, especially against a good team like Silverado.\u201d\nTeu Tai had two touchdown runs in the second quarter for the Patriots (4-3, 2-2 Southeast).\n\u201cIt was going good because of my line. They were doing really good out there,\u201d said Tai, who finished with 52 yards rushing. \u201cI got in the end zone tonight because of them.\u201d\nThe line also came through to help Liberty convert on six third downs, including three that were more than 10 yards and kept scoring drives alive.\nTurnovers also were a key for Liberty.\nWith the game tied at 7, Samson Toalei recovered a fumble at the Skyhawks 42, and four plays later Tai scored on a 6-yard run to give the Patriots a 14-7 lead.\nOn Silverado\u2019s next drive, Michael Reveles scooped up a Skyhawks fumble a returned it 35 yards to the Silverado 15. Five plays later Tai scored on a 1-yard run to push the lead to 21-7.\n\u201cThe last few weeks we have been just shooting ourselves in the foot with turnovers,\u201d Muraco said. \u201cI was a little worried once we fumbled and they scored. But once the kids calmed down, they played really well.\u201d\nLiberty\u2019s fumble two plays into the second half gave Silverado (5-2, 1-2) new life. Cory Iwata recovered the loose ball for the Skyhawks, and four plays later Brandon Romano kicked a 41-yard field goal that cut it to 21-10.\nAfter Liberty\u2019s ensuing drive stalled, Teran Madu-Jules took a handoff on the next play and zipped 53 yards for a touchdown for the Skyhawks. Trent Tipton then tossed a pass to Matt Holen for a 2-point conversion, and suddenly Liberty\u2019s lead was down to three points.\nBut Liberty\u2019s defense held up. The Patriots came up with an interception to stop one drive, then saw Romano miss just short on a potential game-tying 61-yard field goal with 5:56 left.\nLiberty ran out the clock to clinch the win.\n\u201cOur defense doesn\u2019t get much credit. He (Madu-Jules) is the first back to get over 100 yards on us this year,\u201d Muraco said. \u201cOur defense usually holds teams under two touchdowns. They played well tonight.\u201d\nMadu-Jules finished with 149 yards rushing on 21 carries and two touchdowns, but the rest of Silverado\u2019s offense was held to 55 yards, including 11 passing yards.\nNow the Patriots will try to achieve step two.\n\u201cThis was a really good win,\u201d Tai said. \u201cThis was one of our steps to get in the playoffs. Now we have to focus on Del Sol.\u201d\nSpring Valley 35, Bonanza 28 \u2014 At Bonanza, Taj Allen had four touchdowns, including a decisive 55-yard scoring run with 7:45 left, as the Grizzlies (5-3, 5-2 Southwest) beat the Bengals (3-5, 3-4).\nJust like Allen, Bonanza running back Dasean Martin had three touchdown runs and a TD reception.\nAllen scored on Spring Valley\u2019s opening drive with a 44-yard run. Martin responded with a 37-yard run on Bonanza\u2019s next possesion.\nAllen caught a 33-yard touchdown pass from Anton Stallworth midway through the second quarter, and Martin had a 74-yard TD burst on the next play.\nAllen\u2019s 4-yard TD run put the Grizzlies up 21-14 at the half.\nKevin Bodda was the only other player with a touchdown, scoring when he recovered a blocked punt in the end zone in the third quarter to give Spring Valley a 28-14 lead.\nMartin ran in a 12-yarder in the third quarter and caught a 14-yard pass from Sterling Sprau in the fourth to tie the game at 28.\nAllen finished with 211 rushing yards, and Martin had 181.\n\u2014 Kevin Klein\nPalo Verde 55, Arbor View 21 \u2014 At Palo Verde, the No. 4 Panthers scored 41 second-half points to win their 19th straight home game.\nPalo Verde led 14-7 at halftime but scored three touchdowns in a four-minute span to blow the game open. Chappell Thomas scored on runs of 26 and 46 yards, and defensive lineman Doug Stultz returned an interception 21 yards for another score.\nAfter rushing for just 43 yards in the first half, Palo Verde gained 302 on the ground in the second and kept the ball for more than 15 minutes.\nTyrone Blake had rushing touchdowns of 9, 15 and 9 yards. Thomas finished with 152 yards on 18 carries, and Brandon Wright added 99 yards on 14 carries for the Panthers.\nOn the Panthers\u2019 first possession, Palo Verde (7-1, 5-1 Northwest) marched 42 yards in five plays with Blake scoring on a 9-yard run for a 7-0 lead. The Aggies answered with their best drive of the night \u2014 a 14-play, 80-yard march that ended with Christian Rodriguez\u2019s 25-yard run to tie the game.\nWright responded by taking the ensuing kickoff 91 yards for a touchdown.\nRodriguez led Arbor View (4-4, 3-4) with 85 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries.\nValley 12, Rancho 7 \u2014 At Valley, Garic Wharton returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown and added a 1-yard scoring run to lead the Vikings (2-5, 2-2 Northeast) past the Rams (1-6, 1-2).\nWharton, Valley\u2019s quarterback, finished with 147 yards on 27 carries.\nDallas Carter led Rancho with 148 yards on 14 rushes, including a 63-yard touchdown in the second quarter that pulled the Rams within 12-7.\n\u2014 Sean Walker\nFoothill 33, Coronado 20 \u2014 At Coronado, the Falcons (4-3, 2-1 Southeast) jumped to a 25-0 lead after one quarter and held off the Cougars (2-4, 0-4).\nParker Riggin passed for 267 yards and four touchdowns to lead Foothill. Riggin had three TD passes in the first quarter, connecting with Kyle Keplinger on a 27-yard TD pass, hitting Darius Gates with an 86-yard TD pass and hooking up with Mikie Charlton on a 20-yard TD.\nCoronado scored 20 straight points to cut the lead to five, but Riggin added a 26-yard touchdown pass to Tyrel Garner, who had five catches for 106 yards, late in the fourth quarter to seal it.\nCoronado\u2019s Kentavius Hudson rushed for 63 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries, and freshman Cory Mucino added five catches for 74 yards. Ryan Newton passed for 256 yards, including a 21-yard TD strike to Mucino.\n\u2014 Ricky Campbell\nEldorado 33, Chaparral 6 \u2014 At Eldorado, senior Daytron Green ran for 197 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Sundevils (1-6, 1-2 Northeast) past the Cowboys (0-7, 0-4) in the Cleat Game.\nGreen carried 31 times, scoring on runs of 7, 3, and 14 yards to key a rivalry win that gives Eldorado possession of Merlin Olsen\u2019s cleat.\nJunior JaQuorrey Williams completed 5 of 7 passes for 50 yards and also ran for 44 yards and scores of 39 yards and 1 yard.\nThe Eldorado defense forced five first-half turnovers, including four interceptions. Joseph Ortega picked off two passes, and linebacker Tyler Nelson had an interception and recovered a fumble.\nChaparral\u2019s Zachary Luciano completed 8 of 19 passes for 102 yards, including a 38-yard touchdown to Jacob Gallen with 1:21 left.\n\u2014 Sammy Scherr\nFaith Lutheran 27, Shadow Ridge 13 \u2014 At Faith Lutheran, junior Don Pearson tossed two touchdown passes to younger brother Brad and returned an interception for a touchdown as the Crusaders (1-6, 1-5 Northwest) broke an eight-game losing streak and collected their first Class 4A win by beating the Mustangs (1-6, 1-5).\nDon Pearson staked Faith Lutheran to a 14-0 first-quarter lead with a 27-yard interception return and a 14-yard pass to Brad Pearson. The duo connected for another 14-yard scoring pass in the second quarter.\nJoe Portaro added field goals of 33 and 34 yards for the Crusaders, who managed just 112 yards of total offense but won for the first time since Oct. 17, 2008.\nMichael Tootle had scoring runs of 3 and 2 yards for Shadow Ridge, which had only 163 yards of offense.\nDurango 60, Sierra Vista 20 \u2014 At Durango, the Trailblazers (6-2, 5-1 Southwest) racked up 378 yards rushing while routing the Mountain Lions (1-7, 1-5).\nDurango\u2019s Julio Mora rushed for 219 yards and four touchdowns, and Michael Mehling added 161 total yards and three touchdowns.\nSierra Vista\u2019s Dontrell Hall returned a kickoff 93 yards for a score, and Ryan Phung\u2019s 3-yard run made it 14-14 after the first quarter.\nMora had TD runs of 5 and 7 yards to push Durango\u2019s lead to 27-14 at halftime, and the Trailblazers put the game away in the second half.\nMehling scored on runs of 5 and 15 yards and had a 58-yard TD reception from Chase Roberts.\nCimarron-Memorial 65, Mojave 12 \u2014 At Cimarron, the sixth-ranked Spartans rushed for 469 yards, averaging more than 17 yards per carry, and routed the visiting Rattlers.\nCimarron (5-2, 4-2 Northwest) scored on its opening drive with a 10-yard touchdown run by Zach Barbara and extended the lead on James Poole\u2019s 32-yard TD just 2:30 later.\nMojave (2-5, 1-5) trimmed the deficit to eight on a 4-yard TD pass from Clarence Prophet to Robert Jameson. But the Spartans responded with 44 consecutive points.\nPoole scored on touchdown runs of 32, 87 and 11 yards, finishing with 174 yards on eight carries, and added a 35-yard punt return for a score late in the third quarter. Barbara had TD runs of 10, 35 and 41 yards, finishing with 119 yards on five attempts, and Stephen Nixon added 100 yards rushing and a touchdown.\n\u2014 Adam Berchin\nBishop Gorman 69, Western 6 \u2014 At Gorman, Victor Belen rushed for 89 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Gaels (8-0, 6-0 Southwest) to a lopsided win over the Warriors (1-6, 1-5).\nGorman\u2019s Shaquille Powell hauled in a 73-yard touchdown pass from Jarrett Solomon and also scored on a 13-yard run.\nThe Gaels\u2019 defense held the Warriors to 27 yards of total offense.\nGorman linebacker Trevor Stuart returned an interception 55 yards for a score, and safety Devin Bailey had a 23-yard interception return for a touchdown.\nWestern\u2019s lone score came on an 86-yard kickoff return by Brian Mikol.\nDesert Oasis 35, Pahrump Valley 0 \u2014 At Pahrump, Elijah Mitchell scored a pair of second-quarter touchdown runs to help the Diamondbacks (5-2, 4-2 Southwest) overpower the Trojans (0-7, 0-6).\nMitchell had TD runs of 14 and 13 yards to help Desert Oasis take a 21-0 lead. Brennen Stott added a 42-yard TD pass to Colin Maestas.\nMitchell\u2019s second scoring run came after a botched punt attempt in the final 20 seconds of the half.\nThe Diamondbacks got a 7-yard TD run by Roycen Shepherd and a 60-yard scoring run from Peter Okafo in the second half.\nPahrump lost its 16th consecutive game.\n\u2014 Don McDermott\nDel Sol 6, Centennial 0 \u2014 At Del Sol, Dezerick Reed scored the only touchdown on a 25-yard run in the first minute of the fourth quarter, lifting the Dragons (7-0) over the Bulldogs (3-5).\nReed\u2019s run capped a nine-play, 90-yard drive that began late in the third quarter.\nReed led all rushers with 206 yards on 28 carries.\nWith less than three minutes to play, the Bulldogs recovered a fumble on their 26-yard line. After an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty gave Centennial a first down at the 41, quarterback Cody Clark and Christoper Henderson hooked up for a 42-yard pass to the Dragons 13 with 1:39 to play.\nBut two false start penalties stalled the Bulldogs\u2019 final drive, and a last-second pass from Clark to Taj Cole from the 8 was dropped in the end zone.\n\u2014 Vincent Hernandez\nClark 20, Virgin Valley 15 \u2014 At Mesquite, Keneal Riley\u2019s 40-yard touchdown run with seven minutes remaining allowed the Chargers (4-4) to rally past the host Bulldogs (2-5).\nVirgin Valley had a chance to win the game in the final minute but lost a fumble at the Clark 15.\nDerrick West, who had six carries for 123 yards, scored on a 33-yard run in the second quarter and a 78-yard run in the third as the Chargers battled back from a 15-0 deficit.\nClark ran only 30 offensive plays \u2014 all of them rushes \u2014 and lost three fumbles but gained 278 yards.\nVirgin Valley built its lead on a 30-yard pass from punter Victor Ruvalcaba to Humberto Urias and a 1-yard run by Zach Horlacher in the first quarter. The Bulldogs ran 63 offensive plays for 240 yards.",

        "title": "Politics of Obamacare: Vulnerable Democrat Mark Pryor Touts Benefits | The New Republic",
        "raw_content": "This Is How Democrats Win on Obamacare\nAvoid the label, play up the benefits\nCan Democrats turn Obamacare into a political advantage? Senator Mark Pryor seems to think so.\nPryor, who is fighting a tough reelection battle in Arkansas, has just released a new television ad touting his support for the Affordable Care Act. In the ad, Pryor talks about his own bout with cancer\u2014and about his fights with insurance companies that refused payment for treatments. \u201cNo one should be fighting an insurance company while you\u2019re fighting for your life,\u201d Pryor says. \u201cThat\u2019s why I helped pass a law that prevents insurance companies from canceling your policy if you get sick, or deny coverage for preexisting conditions.\u201d\nThis isn\u2019t just some ad the Pryor campaign posted online, in order to gin up donations from liberals. Greg Sargent of the Washington Post reports that it\u2019s airing across the state, at a cost that runs into hundreds of thousands of dollars. And while one ad does not a political trend make, you don\u2019t have to squint to see signs that the politics of Obamacare are shifting. Bloomberg News just did a study of Republican television ads and discovered that mentions of Obamacare are way down from where they were a few months ago. Meanwhile, as Sargent has pointed out several times, Republican Senators and Senate candidates are struggling to explain their opposition to the law, even in conservative states.\nThis doesn\u2019t mean Obamacare has suddenly become popular. Its standing in the polls is at record lows, while Obama himself remains politically toxic across much of the South. That probably explains why Pryor\u2019s ad conspicuously avoids mentioning the law or the president by name.\nBut people\u2019s feelings about the health care law are complicated. Whatever the attitudes of American voters towards \u201cObamacare\u201d per se, large majorities seem to approve of what Obamacare actually does. They like the idea of making sure anybody can get insurance, regardless of income or pre-existing conditions. They want to make sure policies are reasonably comprehensive, so that people with insurance don\u2019t still face financial ruin. Sometimes they even like the law as a whole, as long as they don\u2019t associate it with the president. This is perhaps most obvious in Kentucky, where \u201cKynect,\u201d the state\u2019s version of the program, consistently polls well but \u201cObamacare\u201d does not.\nRepublicans, by proposing to take Obamacare off the books, commit themselves to taking away these benefits. That renders them vulnerable, in ways that Democrats have exploited at least once before.\nI\u2019m speaking, of course, about the 2012 presidential election. After playing down the issue during the early parts of the campaign, Obama started highlighting the law\u2019s benefits and reminding everybody that Romney had committed himself to total repeal. Not only did that argument cast Romney as somebody who would make it harder for people to pay their medical bills, it also reinforced the public perception that Romney, and Republicans more generally, were out to take things away from the poor and middle class. I\u2019m not sure how much those attacks ultimately helped the Democrats\u2019 cause. But they sure didn\u2019t hurt.\nKeep in mind that this is how Democrats usually win on Medicare and Medicaid\u2014by reminding voters of what they have to lose from proposed Republican attacks on the programs. Maybe that's how Democrats will win on Obamacare, too.\nNews from Wednesday:\nFERGUSON DEVELOPMENTS The city had its first relatively peaceful night, with only minor incidents.

        "raw_content": "Alain Jocard, Getty Images\nThis is going to be the new long-term target for global warming.\nIf the final text of the Paris climate agreement is adopted by 195 countries in Paris, world leaders will have agreed to limit the average rise in global temperatures to \u201cwell below 2 \u00b0C above preindustrial levels,\u201d and supports efforts to limit it to 1.5\u00b0C, which is a more aggressive target than first expected.\nTo help guide us to this temperature goal, the agreement also spells out a \u201clong-term\u201d target on greenhouse gas emissions. It tells countries to aim to peak their emissions \u201cas soon as possible,\u201d while allowing that developing nations will take longer to reach their peak than developed ones:\nParties aim to reach global peaking of greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible, recognizing that peaking will take longer for developing country Parties, and to undertake rapid reductions thereafter in accordance with best available science, so as to achieve a balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases in the second half of this century, on the basis of equity, and in the context of sustainable development and efforts to eradicate poverty.\nThis is a slight tweaking of the draft that came before it, which called for nations to reach \u201cemissions neutrality\u201d in the second half of the century. The new version instead calls for countries to \u201cachieve a balance\u201d on emissions and land-use after 2050.\nThe one disappointing part is that there is no firm timeline spelled out.

Beatty became the first American to win the Man Booker Prize in its 46-year history\u2014the prize was only recently opened to Americans\u2014and it\u2019s hard to think of a better first American Man Booker winner than The Sellout, a profane, hilarious, and often uncomfortable look at America. (If nothing else, the Man Booker Prize finally confirmed what has always been true, which is that Americans write the best books.)\nThe 2016 Man Booker Prize continued a recent trend\u2014one that began even before the prize opened itself up to entries from outside the British Commonwealth\u2014of ignoring established authors like Ian McEwen and Julian Barnes, in favor of younger and less well-known writers. The 2016 shortlist was bereft of superstars\u2014a good thing, in my opinion, but one that regularly results in whining from the British publishing establishment\u2014and instead consisted of relative unknowns. At least, that\u2019s the narrative if you watched the BBC broadcast. The Sellout was a breakout book in the U.S. when it was published last year, in large part because it was the best book published in the U.S. that year. (That said, it was also criminally under-reviewed and took some time to emerge as the fiction book of the year.)\nComing months after Brexit and two weeks before the U.S. presidential election, there was an undeniable political tinge to the broadcast, though\u2014fittingly for the British\u2014it remained just a tinge. The presenter declared the prize as part of a \u201cglobal vanguard that stands against all threats both practical and political\u201d and for freedom of expression. Beatty himself was more personal as he accepted the award. Visibly emotional, Beatty thanked his agent, editor, and girlfriend and recalled reading The Sellout aloud for the first time and breaking down crying. \u201cI don\u2019t want to get all dramatic\u2014writing saved my life and all that.

The image is one of a number of images of tattoos of student veterans on display during November in the University of Illinois Library.\nCaleb Carlson, a sophomore studying business with a concentration in international business, served four years in the Army:\n\u201cI had my sun tattoo done in 2012, before my first deployment to Afghanistan, as sort of a starting bookend for the journey ahead. My father had a sun tattoo, although dissimilar to my own and on the opposite arm, so it was a symbol that I grew up with and associated with the strength and assertiveness of my father. So I took that symbol and made it my own, both in its image and by placing it on the opposite arm, to represent that while I share aspects with him, I am my own man, with my own legend to build into the symbol.\u201d\nBrent Blackwell\u2019s tattoo of a ship represents his journey of military service.\nBrent Blackwell, a junior in pre-med studying kinesiology, served in the Army for seven years:\n\u201cI got this tattoo in 2010 while on leave from the military. I was getting ready for my second deployment, so they let us go home for a couple weeks before we deployed. I chose a ship tattoo because I thought it symbolized my journey. I was always on the move, always headed somewhere new. I chose this style because I am a big fan of the \"Traditional Tattoo\" style, and I chose the middle of my right forearm to encourage me to work toward a whole sleeve. (It unfortunately didn't work. I didn't get further than this).\u201d\nEditor\u2019s note: The Symbols of Service exhibit on the first floor of the Main Library features tattoos and personal narratives of current student veterans and highlights stories of service, sacrifice and military culture. The display was created to commemorate Veterans Day, and it will be showcased for the month of November.",

        "raw_content": "Botanical Photography Exhibition Opens at McClung Museum June 5\nA new exhibition featuring botanical photographs by retired UT botany professor Alan S. Heilman, opens Friday, June 5, at the McClung Museum of Natural History and Culture.\nThrough the Lens: Botanical Photography of Alan S. Heilman explores the art and science of sixty-plus years of Heilman\u2019s award-winning botanical photography of leaves, buds, flowers, fruits, seeds, mosses, lichens, cones, and bark of plants native to or grown in the East Tennessee region. The exhibition will run through August 30.\nThe fifty-five photographs on view include images of plants from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the UT Gardens on the Agriculture Campus, and highlight Heilman\u2019s fascination with color, texture, and plant structure.\n\u201cImages in the exhibit are products of a lifelong scientist who became an artist, painting through a lens,\u201d said exhibition curator Gary Crites, McClung Museum curator of paleoethnobotany. \u201cThe exhibit offers an exciting blend of plant structure, which has been at the core of Heilman\u2019s decades as a student, educator, and advocate for habitat appreciation and protection, and the artist\u2019s eye for color, form, and function in nature.\u201d\nHighlights of Through the Lens include the diversity of plant species, types, and parts photographed. It includes veterans of various photograph competitions, including regional and national award winners. A sunflower image in the exhibit was awarded first place in the Natural World Photographic Competition held at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in 1996.\nHeilman began his career as a science photographer in the 1940s, when he used his Kodak Recomar 33 and a darkroom in his family\u2019s basement to experiment with making microscopic enlargements of dissected plants. He continued to take thousands of photographs of plants in the field and under the microscope over the next decades, amassing an archive of images, many of which are available today as digitized color-film photographs housed at the UT Libraries. They can be viewed at http://kiva.lib.utk.edu/heilman.\nThe exhibition includes prints produced from digital files held by UT Libraries, as well as prints gifted by Heilman to the UT Gardens.\nSeveral exhibit-related family programs are planned. They include Family Fun Days from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. on June 20 and August 1 and a Stroller Tour for parents, caregivers, and young children at 10:00 a.m. on June 8 and August 24.\nA lecture on macro, or extreme close-up, photography, will be given by local nature photographer Kendall Chiles at 3:00 p.m. on June 14 in the museum auditorium. UT Gardens Director Sue Hamilton also will lead a plant and garden photography demo at the museum at 3:00 p.m. on July 19.\nThrough the Lens is organized by Crites in collaboration with UT Libraries and UT Gardens. The exhibition is presented by First Tennessee Foundation, UT Federal Credit Union, and Thompson Photo Products. Additional support is provided by Knox County, the City of Knoxville, and the Arts and Heritage Fund.\nThe McClung Museum is located at 1327 Circle Park Drive. Museum admission is free, and the museum\u2019s hours are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Saturday and 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. on Sundays. Free two-hour museum parking passes are available from the parking information building at the entrance to Circle Park Drive on the weekdays. Free parking is available on Circle Park Drive on a first-come, first-served basis on weekends. Free public transportation to the museum is also available via the Knoxville Trolley Vol Line.\nGary Crites, (865-974-2144, gcrites@utk.edu)",

        "raw_content": "Omega 3\u2019s \u2013 So Many Benefits Natural Immune Support for Flu Season\nThe Value in The Z\u2019s\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a shock to hear that we need sleep to function properly throughout the day, just like we need proper nutrition and exercise. What most people don\u2019t realize is how much sleep we in fact need, and what the consequences to not getting enough z\u2019s on a daily basis can mean to our overall health.\nOver the past couple of decades, numerous studies have been conducted, producing varying results and a whole lot of different conclusions, but one thing always seems to be consistent\u2026. not getting enough sleep can actually make you sick. It\u2019s recommended that adults sleep for at least 7 hours a night to give the body rest needed for a full next day of energy. There\u2019s a myth floating around out there saying that we can actually train ourselves to function on less than 6 hours of sleep, but I promise you that it would eventually catch up to you.\nMost of us have the perception that when we go to sleep, our minds just shut down and our body gets the rest it needs, but there is so much more happening. While we\u2019re sleeping, our brains are working hard on creating new pathways for learning, getting new insights, and creating new memories. When you don\u2019t get enough sleep, it\u2019s difficult to focus, pay attention, and even react / respond quickly. Next, it might not come as a surprise, but lack of sleep can even cause significant mood-swings, irritability, depression, and of course, fatigue.\nOver the course of these numerous studies, a number of ailments have been linked to sleep-deprivation. Without an acceptable amount of sleep, our bodies are more prone to major issues such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. On top of all of that, those who are sleep-deprived are even more susceptible to getting infections and then in turn have a more difficult time fighting them off.\nThere are probably hundreds of reasons why a lot of us don\u2019t get the amount of sleep that is recommended. Let\u2019s just touch on a few of the major players in the game:\n\u2013 Do you have a TV in your bedroom? Things like computers and televisions stimulate our minds. When we need to rest, but are distracted by the news, a TV series, or our friends\u2019 new posts on Facebook, we don\u2019t allow our minds to rest.\n\u2013 What are you eating? First, going to bed hungry is not the best idea. It is known to be a cause of insomnia. Our minds need nutrients (let\u2019s call it brain food) just like our bodies do. Be careful that you don\u2019t overeat though. Eating too much can prevent sleep too. Second, eating foods with a lot of sugar can keep your body stimulated, not allowing it to rest when you want it to, and taking in too much caffeine from things like coffee and tea can keep your mind going a mile a minute when all you want is to close your eyes and sleep.\n\u2013 Are you stressed out? Things like stress and anxiety are like vicious cycles when it comes to sleep. Being stressed can prevent you from getting to sleep, and not getting enough sleep can make you more stressed out or anxious. A couple hours before going to bed, look back at the day in a positive way. Don\u2019t focus on the tasks of tomorrow. Let your mind \u201cwind down\u201d, whether through a form of meditation or by reading a relaxing book.\n\u2013 How\u2019s your posture? Studies have shown that the same cause of your headache or neck discomfort may be responsible for your inability to sleep. Neck tension is known to cause a variety of issues like headaches, neck pain, tingling, and insomnia. While focusing on proper posture can help this, having us evaluate you might be in your better interest.\nThe list of many reasons goes on, of course. If you\u2019re having trouble sleeping and you frustratingly cannot figure out why, come in and talk to us. There are numerous nutritional and lifestyle contributors to getting your needed beauty sleep these days, and we would be happy to help.\nTagged with \u2192 can't sleep \u2022 chiropractor \u2022 florida \u2022 insomnia \u2022 Natural Treatment \u2022 nutritionist \u2022 palm beach gardens \u2022 thomas rofrano",

Nearly half of the plastic that flows into the ocean every year \u2013 an estimated 8 million metric tons \u2013 escapes from waste streams in just five rapidly developing economies in Asia (Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand and China).\n\u201cThis is a major breakthrough in the fight for trash free seas,\u201d said Susan Ruffo, managing director of international initiatives at Ocean Conservancy. \u201cOur research has found that by improving waste management in Southeast Asian countries, we can cut the flow of plastic going in the ocean by half by 2025. A funding mechanism will take this goal from dream to reality, and support efforts by governments and local groups on the ground to improve their livelihoods and well-being while also improving ocean health.\u201d\nScientists estimate that over 150 million metric tons of plastics are currently in the ocean today, entangling wildlife, polluting beaches, and costing coastal communities hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars. That number could grow to 250 million metric tons in less than a decade if immediate action isn\u2019t taken.\nThe new funding mechanism will be operated by Closed Loop Partners, an investment firm that invests in companies, technology and recycling facilities to turn waste into value and advance the circular economy. This new mechanism will catalyze new investments from the private sector, governments, and development finance institutions; demonstrate eco-system solutions; and build a pipeline of bankable waste management projects to demonstrate investment viability and maximize recycling profitability.\n\u201cThrough this initiative, we will invest in and support the municipalities, entrepreneurs, investors and NGOs working to reduce ocean plastics and improve waste management in Southeast Asia,\u201d said Rob Kaplan of Closed Loop Partners. \u201cOur investments across North America \u2014 from recycling collection in Tennessee to developing new end markets for waste plastics in Louisiana \u2014 have resulted in tangible improvements to waste collection and recycling. Our model is to take the best practices in waste management investment, leverage the world\u2019s largest consumer goods supply chains, and marry them with on-the-ground partner expertise and work.\u201d\nEffective waste management reduces plastics waste leakage, leads to healthier citizens, creates jobs, and reduces emissions of toxins and carbon. It is also a critical component to making a circular economy function, ensuring that materials can be recovered for reuse and recycling. This initiative aims to solve the root causes of plastics in the ocean by investing in the systems and emerging technologies needed to capture and transform waste into valuable commodities before it reaches marine environments, while also providing tangible benefits to communities.\nConsumer goods companies and plastics manufacturers support the project. Early commitments from PepsiCo, 3M, Procter & Gamble, the American Chemistry Council and the World Plastics Council have fully funded the design phase of the fund.\n\u201cP&G is proud to be a part of this initiative,\u201d said Jack McAneny, Director of Sustainability, Procter & Gamble. \u201cPlastics play an important role in commerce, but they clearly don\u2019t belong in our waterways and oceans. Thanks to the vision of Ocean Conservancy, we now have a multi-stakeholder collaborative effort that can drive the kind of innovation and scale that we need to stop the flow of plastics to the environment and ideally give these materials a second life.\u201d\nThe initiative aims to share the results of its initial phase of work within the next year to help build the field of investors looking to deploy capital into this market.\nThe Trash Free Seas Alliance is comprised of:\nOcean Conservancy, Algalita Marine Research and Education, The Coca-Cola Company, Covanta Energy, The Dow Chemical Company, ITW, Keep America Beautiful, The Marine Mammal Center, The Ocean Recovery Alliance, Project AWARE Foundation, Amcor, American Chemistry Council, Bank of America, Cox Enterprises, DANONE, Dart Container Corporation, Georgia Aquarium, Nature Works, Nestl\u00e9 Waters NA, Procter & Gamble, REDISA, Rozalia Project for a Clean Ocean, The Consumer Goods Forum, Vancouver Aquarium, Walmart, World Animal Protection, The World Plastics Council, World Wildlife Fund www.trashfreeseas.org\nOcean Conservancy is working to protect the ocean from today\u2019s greatest global challenges. Together with our partners, we create science-based solutions for a healthy ocean and the wildlife and communities that depend on it.\nClosed Loop Partners invests in sustainable consumer goods, advanced recycling technologies and the development of the circular economy.",

        "raw_content": "Former Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou. (Courtesy of Rod Searcey/Center for Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law)\nFormer President of Taiwan talks democracy and politics\nBy: Sean Chen and William Dunlop\nFormer Taiwanese president Ma Ying-jeou addressed a crowd of 400 University faculty, students and local community members in his Wednesday talk on democracy, cross-strait relations and future challenges facing Taiwan.\nThe event was jointly sponsored by the Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center, The Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law (CDDRL) and the Hoover Institution.\nMa, who served as President of the Republic of China (Taiwan) from 2008 to 2016, began his talk by describing his previous visit to Stanford in 1971 as a law student on a 70-day trip with the U.S. State Department\u2019s Asian Pacific Student Leader Project. He spent three weeks in the Bay Area, he said, and recounted seeing anti-Vietnam War protests on campus.\nMa said that at the time when he left office, he had brought relations between Taiwan and mainland China into what he described as an era of \u201cunprecedented peace and prosperity.\u201d He added that Taiwan has been rated by the U.S.-based Freedom House, an independent organization that scores nations by level of democracy, as more free than the U.S. in terms of political rights and civil liberties.\nMa went on to discuss future challenges in Taiwan, including the economy, international trade and cross-strait relations. Ma expressed his support for nuclear energy and said he was frustrated with Trump\u2019s withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership. He also said he believes his 2015 meeting with Chinese president Xi Jinping marked the beginning of reconciliation between Taiwan and mainland China.\nDemocracy in China and Taiwan\nIn his address, Ma expressed his dissatisfaction with policies introduced by the current Democratic Progressive Party. As an example, he cited recent legislation regarding the legitimacy of party assets, which he claims unfairly targets Kuomintang, the main opposition party of which he is a member.\nMa also emphasized the importance of discussion surrounding Taiwan\u2019s national identity in light of recent political tensions domestically and around the world. Specifically, he pointed to concerns about Taiwan\u2019s independence and its engagement with mainland China.\n\u201c[Focusing too heavily on the identity question] is actually not a good or rational way of doing things that could lead Taiwan into a constant struggle,\u201d Ma said.\nRegarding the growth of democracy as an institution in mainland China, Ma said he is cautiously optimistic.\nAccording to Ma, a growing Chinese middle class will contribute to calls for greater freedoms. Specifically, he explained that he believes 70 to 80 percent of citizens need to be of the middle class in order for democratic movements to gain momentum. Currently, 30 to 40 percent of China\u2019s population is middle class.\n\u201cI don\u2019t believe that\u2026people [who are] well-educated [and] well-fed do not want to participate in public affairs,\u201d Ma said.\nWhen asked how the United States can encourage democratic change in China, Ma responded by calling for increased U.S. economic activity, which he argued would help reduce the trade deficit between the two nations.\nIn response to how mainland China\u2019s recent elimination of presidential term limits would affect cross-strait relations, Ma replied that he wished for more prudence on President Xi\u2019s side.\n\u201cI\u2019m not quite surprised, but just somewhat disappointed,\u201d Ma said.\nIn recounting his Nov. 2015 meeting with the Chinese president, Ma said Xi was \u201cnot a tyrant\u201d compared to former Soviet General Secretary Nikita Khruschev. Instead, Ma recalled Xi being \u201ccool-headed,\u201d but urged that Taiwan and the U.S. should take caution in dealing with the Chinese president.\nRegarding Taiwan\u2019s security position in response to potential increases in Chinese political and military aggression, Ma referred to a three-layer defense that he initially proposed during his presidency. In it, Ma identified cross-strait institutional relations, international allies and finally the Taiwanese military as safeguards for Taiwanese freedom.\nMa also said he believes Taiwan should take an active role in international humanitarian issues.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very important [\u2026] to not be engaged in an arms race with mainland China,\u201d Ma said. \u201cThe top priority is not to win a war, but to prevent a war from happening.\u201d\nIn addressing his support for nuclear power, Ma cited Taiwan\u2019s lack of an indigenous energy option. He added that the United States, Russia and Japan all currently employ nuclear power.\nIn the closing remarks to his address, Ma reaffirmed the importance of continuing to develop the relationship between Taiwan and mainland China. He also cautioned that Taiwan should be wary of power abuses that may negatively impact its \u201cdynamic but fragile\u201d democracy.\n\u201cTaiwanese people must have the right to express their views,\u201d Ma said.\nContact Sean Chen at kxsean \u2018at\u2019 stanford.edu and William Dunlop at wjdunlop \u2018at\u2019 stanford.edu.\nCDDRL Center for Democracy China democracy Hoover Hoover Instituion international relations politics Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center Taiwan\t2018-04-13\nTagged with: CDDRL Center for Democracy China democracy Hoover Hoover Instituion international relations politics Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center Taiwan\nAbout William Dunlop\nWilliam Dunlop is an undeclared major freshman writer for the University/Local beat who really enjoys music and anything associated with it.

        "raw_content": "Larochelle and Sniderman: High time to do away with the mandatory victim surcharge\nAndrew Stobo Sniderman & Vincent Larochelle\nMinister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada Jody Wilson-Raybould speaks to reporters in the Foyer of the House of Commons on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Monday, Feb. 12, 2018.\tJustin Tang / THE CANADIAN PRESS\nThere is a long tradition of legislators leaving hard questions to judges. When convenient, politicians facing a problem can dodge or delay. By contrast, when a judge is thrown a hot potato, hands must burn \u2013 and, hopefully, justice gets done.\nPrime Minister Justin Trudeau\u2019s government stalled for 18 months after introducing a draft law to abolish the requirement of a so-called \u201cvictim fine surcharge\u201d on those who commit any kind of criminal offence.\nThe mandatory surcharge imposes minimum fines on offenders, at $100 or $200 per offence, regardless of the seriousness of the crime, whether the offender can afford the fine, or even whether or not there is a victim.\nEach fine may not seem like much, unless you are destitute, in which case a number of petty offences can indefinitely saddle you with the crushing burden of debt and the stigma of criminality.\nIn 2013, Stephen Harper\u2019s Conservatives made the fine mandatory on all offenders, indigent or otherwise, because apparently being tough on crime requires indiscriminate punishment, and so be it if the most vulnerable bear the greatest burden. One judge in Ontario called the mandatory surcharge \u201ca tax on broken souls.\u201d\nIn the Yukon, where administration of justice offences are five times higher per capita than the Canadian average, alcoholics are racking up thousands of dollars of fines for violating parole or bail conditions that require sobriety and avoiding bars.\nThe cycle is predictable, common, and, yes, victimizing.\nIt is also a great waste of time and resources, in the Yukon as across Canada, because our justice system spends so much energy chasing after people who will never be able to pay.\nWhen the victim surcharge was created in 1989, judges had discretion on whether to impose it, and the laudable goal was fundraising for victim services. Which is great, unless attempts to enforce the fine on people who can\u2019t afford it costs even more.\nHere as always, blind vengeance makes bad policy.\nIt is trite and true to say that politicians of all stripes historically have a hard time producing rational criminal justice legislation. It is all too easy for blowhards to campaign on maximum punishment for the most guilty. Judges face a different reality in the day-to-day operation of the system, which is clogged by offenders who are not so much evil as poor, desperate and addicted.\nInflexible, harsh laws make no sense for these people.\nTomorrow, the Supreme Court will hear arguments on whether the mandatory surcharge is constitutional. We will be among those arguing the court should strike it down.\nFairness demands punishment that is proportional to the circumstances of each case.\nInterestingly, the court will not hear from the attorney general of Canada, who withdrew a planned intervention in the case.\nPresumably, this has something to do with Minister of Justice Jody Wilson-Raybould\u2019s comment in 2016: \u201cImposing a victim fine surcharge on somebody that is a marginalized person that has an absolute inability to pay because of their financial circumstances, whether that be homelessness or not being employed, does not bolster a fair justice system.\u201d\nLawyers may be experts at polishing turds, but clearly the Liberal government knows how much this law stinks. In this case, rightly, the attorney general\u2019s silence is the opposite of complicity.\nIt is evident that Wilson-Raybould cares deeply about the ongoing injustice of the mandatory surcharge, and wants the law changed. In October 2016, she introduced a paragraph-long statute, C-28, to do just that.\nBut that draft bill just collected dust and went nowhere. Then, late last month, she introduced a new law proposing broad criminal justice reform, C-75, which includes provisions to deal with the pernicious effects of the mandatory surcharge.\nThe new bill is a significant though incomplete move toward the necessary systemic changes this government has promised for our criminal justice system. We hope the government shows the requisite urgency to get it passed before the next election.\nLegislative time is relatively short, and the surcharge continues to wreak systemic havoc in the lives and communities of the most vulnerable.\nPerhaps the Supreme Court will strike down this unjust law. If the court doesn\u2019t \u2013 and it may not, because not every unfairness is unconstitutional \u2013 we will need legislators to make things right.\nVincent Larochelle is a criminal defence and appellate lawyer in the Yukon and former law clerk at the Supreme Court of Canada.\nAndrew Stobo Sniderman is a visiting researcher at the University of Ottawa\u2019s Human Rights Research and Education Centre, and former policy adviser to two Liberal cabinet ministers.\nShalaby: Humboldt crash shows (again) why we need a federal road-safety...

        "raw_content": "How to Use the Science of Awe and Wonder to Succeed\nSeptember 13, 2017 Marcia Reynolds2 Comments\nOne cold April morning, I jumped off the top of an Alpine peak. That wasn\u2019t the hard part. The run to the cliff knowing I was going to jump was one of the most difficult things I\u2019ve done, and the most exhilarating.\nI remember when the guide told me to run as fast as I could to the edge of the mountain without hesitating. He would be running behind me but my committed run would help lift the parachute so when we got to the edge, it would carry us both to safety. My brain screamed, \u201cNO\u201d but I thrust my body forward. Each stride was in direct rebellion to my brain.\nThe float down was beautiful, past shiny ice ledges, glistening waterfalls, green patches with white flowers, and the tiny town below growing in view. But the run to the cliff was more memorable. The run into the unknown with my brain and body screaming at me was magnificent.\nWhen my feet touched the ground and I had a chance to process the experience, I realized how much power I had to muster to achieve my goal while countering what my brain concluded was dangerous, uncertain, and stupid. Never mind that I checked the guide\u2019s safety record and we tested everything before we left. At the make-or-break moment, nothing was certain and my brain fought hard to get me to quit.\nEvery day, we are faced with uncertainty and ambiguity. We are racing toward the unknown. That morning, I knew I wasn\u2019t sure what was going to happen. Most days, we pretend we know what\u2019s coming and avoid testing our theories so we aren\u2019t proven wrong.\nWe like to think we are on top of things. We fill in our schedules, map out our months, pick safe vacations, and chastise ourselves if we feel lost or uneasy.\nWhat\u2019s worse, we act as if what we don\u2019t know doesn\u2019t exist.\nOverriding Your False Sense of Knowing\nThe need to know is particularly true of leaders who work hard creating models and schematics to predict a future they cannot know. They prepare as best they can, but are afraid of telling anyone, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d\nThe novelist Pico Iyer, having traveled with the Dalai Lama, said the one thing that seemed to give people reassurance and confidence was when the Dali Lama would answer their questions with, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d He made it okay to not know.\nIyer also says, \u201cThe opposite of knowledge isn\u2019t always ignorance. It can be wonder.\u201d\nIn The Neurophenomenology of Awe and Wonder,[1] the researchers created a scientific study to define awe and wonder as experienced by astronauts in space, and determine if we can replicate these experiences. The answer is yes, though it\u2019s not easy.\nThe authors define wonder as two senses merged. \u201cThe first sense is closely tied to the feeling of awe; the second to the feeling of curiosity.\u201d In other words, you experience wonder when you see something that takes your breath away, and then ponder how this came into existence with open questions instead of assumptions. Add in a little humility for recognizing that what you see is beyond your control\u2014that you are a tiny part of the vast universe\u2014then your needs and fears decline as your sense that you are part of a collective experience appears. You then ask, \u201cHow can we move through this space together?\nCan you use a sense of wonder when faced with complex challenges? Can you declare that what you are facing is a new experience, be amazed by what is occurring, and engage others to curiously explore how the phenomenon appeared?\nNot knowing what\u2019s next can make you anxious, angry, or numb. You can also choose to be excited, saying, \u201cHere we go!\u201d as if boarding your favorite roller coaster at night.\nUsing wonder to succeed\nHal Gregersen, author of the Harvard Business Review article, \u201cBursting the CEO Bubble\u201d says ambiguous shifts are always around the corner in life and business.[2] When you are determined to have all the answers, you stay within the bounds of what you know. Sometimes that\u2019s necessary and appropriate, but if you\u2019re going to crack open new territory, you\u2019ll need to break that habit.\nThe solution is not that complicated, Gregersen says. \u201cGet out of the office today and spend more time being wrong, being uncomfortable, and being quiet.\u201d Don\u2019t just be curious, ask the question, \u201cWhat could I be dead wrong about?\u2019\u201d Then admit, \u201cWhat can I now see that I didn\u2019t know I was looking for?\u201d\nHere are other questions Gregersen asks,\nWhen was the last time you were dead wrong about something? How fast did you change course?\nWhat could you be wrong about now and surprised to find?\nHow often do people ask you uncomfortable questions at work? (if not much, why not?)\nHow much time do you spend with people who make you feel uncomfortable?\nHow many questions do you ask versus statements you make in typical conversations?\nTo be a good leader, partner, or friend, role model how to embrace ambiguity. Give up being the one who knows so you can be the one who engages people in creative dialogue. Be curious about knowing what you don\u2019t know. See everything brand new so you don\u2019t miss what\u2019s changing.\nSeek to be awed and filled with wonder.\nEvery morning provides you a new chance to embrace the thrill of what you don\u2019t know.\n[1] Gallagher, S. et al. (2015) The Neurophenomenology of Awe and Wonder: Towards a Non-reductionist Cognitive Science. Palgrave Macmillan. pp. 22-23.\n[2] This article appeared in the March\u2013April 2017 issue (pp.76\u201383) of Harvard Business Review.\nPrevious Post How to \u201cGet Over It\u201d by Telling Your Story Next Post Can You Quit Being Judgmental?\nLoving this Marcia. In my recent workshops in London we\u2019ve been exploring the Flow State and found that AWE is a vital part of the equation \u2013 it opens up new worlds of appreciation and possibility.\nWe exercise muscles of awe by exploring amazing things in both inner and outer space \u2013 the microscopic and the astronomical.\nWith your permission, I\u2019m going to quote you in the next session where you stated, \u201cNot knowing what\u2019s next can make you anxious, angry, or numb. You can also choose to be excited, saying, \u201cHere we go!\u201d as if boarding your favorite roller coaster at night.\u201d\nIt is good to hear about the good work you are up to Pad.

It can be made from the milk of any ruminant animal, such as a cow, goat, or sheep. It is slightly sour and carbonated due to the fermentation activity of the symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast that make up the \u201cgrains\u201d used to culture the milk (not actual grains, but a grain-like matrix of proteins, lipids, and sugars that feed the microbes). The various types of beneficial microbiota contained in kefir make it one of the most potent probiotic foods available.\nEven though Kefir is dairy based, and not strict Paleo, it can be made from coconut milk and coconut water as well.\nContinue reading about the benefits of Kefir.\nIs Ketchup Paleo?\nRecipeswith Kefir",

It only requires an email confirmation and identity verification by the member\u2019s social security number.\nThis information, as any information given by the member is and will remain confidential. It will not be disclosed without permission, except according to a valid law or following a valid order from a competent court.\nHowever, a member that brings forth a proposition or leaves a comment on the website will have to do so under his true identity. Il will waiver by this act the confidential aspect of his member status.\nMembership is valid for the rest of the civil year, ending on december 31st at midnight. It will be automatically renewed yearly, unless notice to the contrary by the member.\nThe member will be able to vote as soon as his identity is confirmed, unless otherwise specified.\nHe will be able to bring forth propositions after a probation period of 30 days.\nMember access to the website acts as membership card.\nIn consideration of the party\u2019s fundamental values and its transparency policy, the website will be accessible to the public by simple follower status of the website.\nThe follower status does not allow voting rights or the possibility to bring foward propositions.\nThe member who publishes a comment or brings forth a proposition is fully responsible for his words. They do not bind the party or its other members.\nElective assemblies are held through the party\u2019s website. All the members votes, except for candidate nomination assemblies where vote is limited to members of the concerned electoral divison.\nWhile the leader and the executive may suggest a voting option, the vote is always open.\nMembers will receive email notice when vote his being held and for how long.\nThe default vote duration is 7 days, but the national executive can convene otherwise if circumstances warrant it.\nAs the assembly is virtual, the communications director acts a assembly president and may appoint moderators as needed. He establishes the modalities of it.\nIf a physical assembly is exceptionnaly required, the national executive appoints an assembly president which will be in charge of establishing the modalities of it, under condition of respecting the values of democracy, freedom and transparency of the party.\nBarring contrary measure, simple majority wins. Quorum is not necessary, but the leader or the national executive can refuse a result that doesn\u2019t have a quorum of 50% of the members.\nGeneral assembly (Congress) follows the same rules as elective assemblies and are held once a year for the period and duration determined both by the national executive.\nOn it we elect the national executive and case pending, vote on member propositions, including ratification or modifications to the constitutive documents (Constitution and regulations).\nThe leader acts as assembly president, or if not possible his delegate.\nIf a leadership bid takes place, president of the executive act as president of this elective assembly, or if not possible a president is elected from the members proposed and seconded by voting members.\nAssembly president establishes modalities of the assembly and may appoint moderators if needed.\nPropositions approved no later than 30 days before the beginning of the general assembly are submitted for voting during the general assembly.\nExceptionnaly, national executive can submit a proposition to vote outside the general assembly.\nThe various transition Commissions created by the national executive must be held through the party\u2019s website and videoconferencing service.\nWhile they may still hold physical meetings on a voluntary basis, they will do so at the commissionners own costs and will still have to be reported in the website private section set to that end. The final and approved reports of these commissions are however public themselves.\nInternal management of the Commissions will be run by the commissioners, but will remain subject to supervision by the national executive.\nA candidate, in addition of the requirements set forth in the party\u2019s Constitution, must have been a member for a minimum of 30 days.\nSomone aspiring to an elective office inside the party, whatever it is, must meet the same requirements than a candidate, includind those set forth in the party\u2019s Constitution.\nVirtual vote excludes the possibility of a recount, except if a technical problem is the cause. In such a case, a new vote will be required if the technical problem has or may have had a decisive impact.\nAn aspiring officer or candidate cannot act as assembly president for the one where he is presenting himself.\nFor delay calculation, the first day doesn\u2019t count, but the last one does. If the last day is a holiday, the delay ends the following business day.\nWhen a conflict on the website requires moderator intervention, the member at fault may require revision by the communications director and his decision will be final.\nThe latter may submit a case of sufficient gravity to the executive committee and must do so in a case of heinous or crime inciting discourse. This does not predjudice his right and the right of the moderator to take immediate measures.\nThe present regulations can be modified or replaced by simple proposition accepted following the modalities established in section 11.\nSaid modification or replacement can be partial if the whole remains coherent and complete.",

Earlier that year, Bannister had become the first man to break the four-minute mark in the mile.\nThe day before the start of the semester is like the last minute before the starter\u2019s gun fires for a footrace. Back in high school, I was a miler on the track team. About 60 second before the race, I\u2019d stand in the infield just off to the side of the starting line, walking in aimless little circles. Half a minute later, I\u2019d toe the starting line in my assigned lane, rocking back and forth without moving my feet. Then it was \u201cRunners, take your marks!\u201d and the gun would crack.\nThe start of the semester is like the first lap of the mile. During that lap, I\u2019d try to get my breathing into a smooth, regular rhythm, even though my lungs were burning. I\u2019d also plot my race strategy based on how the pack was shaping up. That was all there was to it: trying to run four laps faster than anyone else on the track. It never was easy.\nThe start of my spring semester begins at 8:30 a.m. tomorrow. At about 8:15, I\u2019ll start getting fidgety, wondering how well the first day of class will go. As in the mile, a good start is important. I try to get to class early for a little small talk with the students as they file in.\nThen the starter\u2019s gun fires. And the race begins again.\nA good start is certainly optimal, but then there's that tried and true adage of, \"Slow start, strong finish\" that could apply to your running analogy as well as to the start of the semester.\nAnyhow, *clink* - here's to a good start!\n*Clink*\u2014I'll drink to that. Thank you.\nAll of the students I'll be working with this semester had Chris and me in class last semester (we team-taught two sections of the same course), so the start should be a good one.\nI'm sure your semester will start off on the right foot.\n*ba-dum-kssh*\nYeah, and it will end up in my mouth before the end of the class.\nLast year, I mistook a student's gender in front of the whole class. You can only go up from there.",

The context of these papers is overall categorizations as they have appeared in the literature. These currently vary widely, and this series is concerned with exploring possibilities for bringing them closer together. The aim is to stimulate discussion and to encourage feedback, which might hopefully lead to the development of more widely acceptable and accepted categorizations.\nThe first paper (Stretton 2014f) focused on project categorizations, and the second (Stretton 2014g) on program categorizations. In both cases existing categorizations were found to be a mixture of industrial/ social sectors (Application Sectors) in which programs/projects are undertaken (e.g. aerospace, defence), and types of programs/ projects (Program/ Project Types) which are undertaken in many, if not most, of these Application Sectors (e.g. IT projects, R&D projects).\nIn each case the components of the categorizations were re-allocated into Application Sectors and Program/Project Types, and presented as a matrix illustrating the intersections between them. It was evident that some of the Program/Project Types were much more immediately relevant to some Application Sectors than to others. It would appear to be potentially useful to establish the nature and importance of such relevancies, and thence, hopefully, develop a better understanding of how individual Program/Project Types can benefit through sharing inter-Application-Sector data.\nIt was further identified that programs and projects shared five key Program/ Project Types. It was also noted that the listings of Application Sectors and Program/Project Types found so far are very incomplete. This series is somewhat more concerned with categorizations of Program/Project Types, and this third paper will discuss these further, and extend the listing of these Types.\nEditor\u2019s note: This series of articles on the categorization of projects and programs is by Alan Stretton, PhD (Hon), Life Fellow of AIPM (Australia), a pioneer in the field of professional project management and one of the most widely recognized voices in the practice of program and project management.

The international financial reporting standard-setting process came to be developed several decades ago and onwards (IASB, 2009, p. 56). The international accounting standard board (IASB) publishes the standards in a sequence of announcements referred to as International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (IAS, 2008, p. 21).\nThe standards aim at promoting the integrity of the accounting profession. It was a way of making assured consistency in the way accountants present the transaction records and also in the preparation of the business final accounts. The industrialized nations moreover wanted to create standards to be used by developing and smaller countries not capable of establishing their own reporting standards. This is by a large extent meant to enhance the assurance of stakeholders, principally shareholders and prospective financier in the accounting profession. However, as the business world became more comprehensive, managers, shareholders, large firms and auditing companies came to appreciate the significance of embracing general standards in the field of the financial accounting chain.\nFinancial reporting standards are essential to encourage quality financial reporting The elementary function of accounting is to transmit financial information regarding businesses and other institutes to the relevant stakeholders as well as government, and the general public (Dick & Missonier-Piera, 2010, p. 45). The government, investors, suppliers, lenders, and all shareholders, use the financial reports in their decision-making and also, assessing the credibility of people chosen to administer such businesses. If the financial information does not amuse the stakeholders, they may fail to make effective decisions to their benefit. For instance, if a business show rise in profits on their financial report the investors would tend to hold on to their shares with the hope of the company doing much better. The financial reports should be reliable exhibiting the good qualities of relevance and under stability.\nOther options IASB considered before a standalone standard were developed.\nIn coming up with a decision to develop an IFRS, the IASB considered some of the following issues:\n1. Capability of others doing it\nThe Board well thought-out the possibility of financial reporting standards to be prepared by other people either internationally, within a country, or possibly a region. The board concentrated their efforts, mainly on standards for entities played part in the public capital markets. Nevertheless, the IASB noted that their mission was not constrained to standards for entities that only played part in public capital markets (Mackenzie, Coetsee, & Njikizana, Wiley, 2011, p. 123). If the board concentrated only on those entities is probable to end up in practices for new entities, which may fail to address the requirements of external consumer or user of the financial statements, who may not be conversant with the boards structure designed for the Preparation of Financial Statements, also the standards, may perhaps be short of comparability on general regional boundaries or within a country. The board considered those reasons and focused on undertaking the project.\n2. Do national standard-setters support a board\u2019s initiative\nThe IASB project is supported by the nationwide accounting standard-setters. The board had to have to survey on whether its initiative on the standalone for SMEs was considered. The IASB board held a meeting in September 2003 with the nationalized accounting standard setters in which the standard setters approved.\n3. An IFRS for SMEs is consistent with the IASB\u2019s mission.\nDeveloping standalone standards ought to be consistent with the board\u2019s mission. The prime goal of the IASB was to develop with the public interest at hand, a particular set of worth, comprehensible and applicable worldwide financial standards, which are highly guided by, transparency and analogous information in financial reporting and statements that could guide the capital markets in making economic decisions. A \u2018standalone\u2019 means that all entities nationwide follow the same standards.\n4. Different users\u2019 needs and cost-benefit considerations\nThe standard alone framework had the intention of financial statements is to give data regarding to the financial situation, routine and variations in financial status of an entity which is that is valuable to a variety of clients in economic decisions making. In setting up standards for the structure and meet general purpose with regard to financial statements, the user requirements are paramount.\nSome of the users of financial statements of SMEs might not get the significance of various information presented in the financal statements, which are prepared in agreement with full IFRSs. For instance, the user of SMEs financial statements of might have been interested in temporary cash flows, liquidity, past trends of earning and the strength of the balance sheet, which may help them in decision making. However, the financial statements of SMEs might not present all the information which an entity shareholder requires.\n5. Jurisdictions\nThe board considered some accounting policy options. Normally, some transaction, event or condition, tend to be simpler to put into practice than the other. The board had to decide whether the IFRS for SMEs ought to get rid of all bookkeeping policy preferences and, thus, necessitate all Small and medium enterprises to follow a distinct accounting policy to complete a specified transaction, event or condition. This was undertaken to facilitate simplification of the IFRS for Small and medium enterprises and better comparability of the consequential economic information among entities using the IFRS for SMEs.\nAccording to IASB board, the accounting policy benefits were attractive. It finalized that eliminating the small and medium entities from employing an accounting policy option which is accessible to entities by means of full IFRSs may possibly hold back comparability between small enterprises and entities using full IFRSs. The Board acknowledged that there was a possibility of most SMEs opting for the uncomplicated choice in full IFRSs. Therefore, the Board decided to include only a simpler option in the standalone policy.\n(Barry J. Epstein, 2010)\nQ2. Factors that SMEs will have to consider in managing the change to IFRS for the first time\nThe IFRS for SMEs\nThe standard was established on July 2009 by the International Accounting Standard for Small, and Medium sized Entities (Hillary, 2000, p. 67). Its aim was to develop a smooth progress of financial reporting to small entities through an easy and fewer comprehensive requirement and regulation from full IFRS standards. It was also intended to remove complex options in some areas in which the full IFSR standards permit several accounting options (Kumar, 2010, p. 127).\nConsiderations prior to adopting the IFRS for SMEs\nThe main goal for IFRS for SMEs is to make financial reporting easier and bring down costs of the financial statements preparation. The adoption of the IFRS for SMEs is acceptable to any entity; nevertheless, the entities must comply with the intended scope of the standards in order to claim their financial statements comply with the IFRS for SMEs. The scope for IFRS for SMEs is only applicable to entities that are not publicly accountable (Mackenzie, Lombard and Coetsee, 2010, p. 32).\nThe following are some of the factors that an entity could consider before adopting the IFRS for SMEs.\n1. Local financial reporting requirements\nAmong other things, the adoption of the IFRS for SMEs should count on whether, the standard complies with local laws Even though the standards comply with local laws and authority needs or else consent the standard as suitable for financial reporting structure, subsequently, individual entities taking into consideration affecting the standard still require establishing whether they are able to assert compliance in their particular circumstances with the standard. For example, if an entity meets the requirements under the criterion defined by an authority who accepts an application of the IFRS for SMEs may not be able to assert to the agreement with the customary if it is publicly accountable (Barry J. Epstein, 2010, p. 97).\nA further feature that an entity has to put into consideration is whether the IFRS for SMEs is extensively accepted on economic reporting structure in their operating business environment. One is required to analyze whether the user will agree with the IFRS for SMEs financial information or if they would need supplementary revelation and statements. If any addition requirement is established, then the cost- benefit test may not be met. Furthermore, there is a benefit for entities in the quest of foreign investments through the adoption of the set standards. If additional disclosures or statements were required, then a cost-benefit test might not be met. Meanwhile, entities involved in international trade or looking for foreign investment can benefit from implementing the standard that is based on similar ideologies that are broadly conventional.\n2. User and comparability to other entities.\nIt is certain that, the necessities in the IFRS for SMEs standards are not as extensive as compared with full IFRSs, it seems unavoidable that entities reporting using the IFRS for SMEs may, in particular, conditions apply different accounting handlings, that may perhaps end up in preparing fewer comparable financial statements of entities using the IFRS for SMEs as compared to those of entities using full IFRSs This can be a temporary apprehennsion for consumer who may be concerned in making a comparison of different entity's financial statements. However, it would at high degree possibly reduce over time; while other entities approve the standard and the elucidation of the demands of the standard grow to be more standardized. Furthermore, the accounting statements prepared using the IFRS for SMEs might be simpler to comprehend having in mind that the IFRS for SMEs requirements are simple, and the disclosures are few.\n3. Business impacts\nAn entity needs to consider several key business aspects such as the result on a financial metrics such as net profit, existing debt agreements, and the provisions and conditions of conventional arrangements. It may also influence on some business items: First, the amount of payable taxes. A change may arise on taxable income and the amount of tax payable, when the net profit changes or tax law is based on the accounting treatment. Secondly, the capability to pay a bonus or the amount of dividends payable: In authority for which dividends are inadequate to disseminate reserves or are objected to capital management requirements, the capability to pay dividends or the amount of dividends the which might be paid can possibly be impacted. Finally, administration compensation: when the management reparation is supported on financial metrics, subsequently a change may be realized on the amount payable.\nThe implication of such impact is dependent on the specifics and conditions of every entity, together with confined jurisdictional requirements. The consideration at this point is to make sure that sufficient onward preparation is embarked on, in order to limit any undesirable impacts, other than capitalizing on the constructive results.\n4. Long-term plans\nThe firm\u2019s long time goals and plans should be put consideration when deciding on adapting the IFRS for SMEs. While an entity has the developmental aspirations or is forecasting on an event, for example, a recording in the future which might necessitate the approval of full IFRSs, an adoption of the IFRS for SMEs earlier, may well be a valuable step towards adopting full IFRSs\nFor group reporting purposes, requirements in other diverse jurisdictions are predominantly relevant to reflect on. Example, for a group entity who comes from different regions, e.g. Africa, Germany, or France, should consider applying for the IFRS for SMEs for group reporting. Using the standard the business case will be more convincing if the conventional financial reporting framework is acceptable in most authorities for which the group entities come from. If the group reports are controlled by full IFRSs, a subsequent deliberation with respect to group reporting may be whether the complication and figure of consolidation alteration will vary as an effect of the group entity\u2019s acceptance of the IFRS for SMEs. This will highly count on the entity\u2019s present accounting reporting structure and how comparable it is to complete IFRSs.\nBefore adopting the IFRS for SMEs there may be necessary to put into account various cost implications, calculating on entity and authority explicit status. They might comprise the following:\nUpfront investment: due to the system changes brought about by system changes, training expenses, and the change of format of the financial statements, the adoption of the IFRS for SMEs might impose some upfront investment However, it is expected that appropriate standard accounting packages may be obtainable, which may cut down the upfront investment necessary.\nOngoing training: the IFRS for SMEs may not be updated severally, continuing instruction expenses might be low as compared to the cost that would be incurred if the accounting reporting framework was to change rapidly (Tohmatsu, 2008, p. 72).\nStandalone financial reporting standards, useful time and again, improve the comparability of the accounting information. Financial differences can make it difficult to understand the comparisons made by the shareholder, investors and other users. As a result of the presentation of a standard analogous financial information, superior comprehensive account reporting standards advance the effectiveness of allotment and the capital charging. This benefits both creditors and the entities that seek resources for the reason that it lessens their conformity costs and reduces reservations which have an effect on their cost of capital. Universal financial reporting standards also advance reliability in audit worth and ease instruction and training.\nThe gains of standalone financial reporting standards are unlimited to the entities, whose sureties do business in open capital markets. In the opinion of the Boards, the standalone financial statements benefit the small and medium-sized entities due to the application of common financial standards. The IFRS for SMEs financial statements are comparable across countries.\nContemporary Lessons from Martin Luther King Junior\nBeing Labeled Gifted",

She's replacing Sarah Isgur Flores, who moved to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's office, sources told the newspaper.\nWhile at the Alliance Defending Freedom, Kupec was in charge of East Coast and Supreme Court media operations. According to The Daily Beast, she \"spent some time at the White House helping with Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmations to the Supreme Court.\"\nHere's what the SPLC says about the Alliance Defending Freedom:\nFounded by some 30 leaders of the Christian Right, the Alliance Defending Freedom is a legal advocacy and training group that has supported the recriminalization of homosexuality in the U.S. and criminalization abroad; has defended state-sanctioned sterilization of trans people abroad; has linked homosexuality to pedophilia and claims that a \"homosexual agenda\" will destroy Christianity and society. ADF also works to develop \"religious liberty\" legislation and case law that will allow the denial of goods and services to LGBT people on the basis of religion. Since the election of President Donald Trump, the ADF has become one of the most influential groups informing the administration's attack on LGBT rights working with an ally in Attorney General Jeff Sessions.",

By the time I was thirty I wanted a job that paid well and also gave me time to spend with my family while being an active provider. Not really interested in a career path at that time; I was more focused on life\u2019s necessities such as food, water, and shelter. Little did I know that one phrase, \u201cCongratulations! Welcome to Target Distribution\u201d was all it would take to change my life and provide me with the two things I was lacking, a career and a sense of self. Beginning my career at Target Distribution as an Inbound Team Member, I focused on learning everything and anything I could to help me perform my job. It didn\u2019t take long, with the help of my extended Target family, to begin learning other areas of the warehouse [\u2026]\nby Audra Audra | Nov 29, 2017\n\u201cCongratulations on getting the job. Target is a great place to work \u2013 I have been here for five years\u2013started out on the warehouse floor, advanced through several roles to my current position, and have had a positive experience on the Target DC team. You can too.\u201d As a Senior Target Security Specialists (STSS), this is how I welcome new employees during our New Hire Orientation at the distribution center. Some of the highlights I emphasize are Target\u2019s competitive pay and benefits, good work/life balance, and opportunity to advance in a variety of roles and departments. The best term to describe my career at Target would be growth, and in more ways than one. On a personal level, while employed at Target our family has increased from two people to five (we now have two girls and a boy!). Through that busy period we were thankful for Target\u2019s excellent health [\u2026]\nby Michael Michael | Jul 5, 2017\nTarget is one of the world\u2019s most recognized brands and one of America\u2019s leading retailers. And our Distribution Centers are key to that success, whether guests shop our stores or online. It\u2019s our DC teams who make sure that products arrive at our stores (and guests\u2019 doorsteps) on time, every time. Wonder what it\u2019s like to spend a day in the life of a Warehouse Worker? Here\u2019s your chance! They\u2019re making things happen in Distribution Centers across the country, and we spent some time asking them what it\u2019s all about\u2026 What is a day like as a Warehouse Worker? o Being a Warehouse Worker in a Target Distribution Center is fast paced. You will have to be flexible throughout the work day. There are several departments in the building that process product received from our vendors domestically or overseas into the Distribution center, other teams put it in reserve or [\u2026]\nSuccess, the accomplishment of an aim or purpose. Something that Target Team Members should keep in the forefront of their mind, and they do. Not only for themselves, their leaders and Team, but for the betterment of Target Corporation as a whole which means every Target Team Member (TM) gets to share every company success. Specifically within the distribution network there is a strong understanding that creating and being a part of a holistic working environment allows success for everyone. On an individual basis I have had the pleasure to experience many facets of the company over the past five and a half years; starting as a Seasonal Team Member at the T2032 store in Winter Park, Florida I have since been able to expand a job into a career. Invited to become a full time TM at the end of the season I opened the opportunity to cross train [\u2026]\nThe first time I walked into a Target distribution center I didn\u2019t know much about supply chain. It was early March of 2013. After spending several years bouncing around North Carolina, Virginia and D.C. working in grocery stores and restaurants, I\u2019d decided to move back to my hometown of Suffolk, Virginia. I needed a job and the local Target warehouse was hiring. I started out working the outbound dock, loading freight on trailers and learning the basics of warehousing and distribution. I was eager to learn as much as I could, and fairly quickly I was given additional responsibilities as a trainer and a backup utility attendant. I learned a lot about inventory management and discovered that I have a passion for this kind of work. For me, Target started out as a job at a warehouse, but quickly became a career in supply chain. Thanks to Target\u2019s flexible work [\u2026]\nColorful Communication\nCommunication is one of the biggest keys to success in a fast-paced environment at the distribution centers. Knowing the most up to date information allows us to make better decisions each day. It also allows us to stay connected to the bigger company priorities and initiatives. Each year we take the Best Team Survey to voice opinions on all different aspects of Target. Getting feedback on the areas we are doing well in and opportunities to improve help us become a better team. This year we identified that team members wanted to see more communication about Target, the distribution center and the department from us. There are several communication vehicles already out there including Communication Alley, Table Talkers, and Start up Announcements. To better understand what the team was looking for in addition to those, we solicited feedback and asked what information they wanted to see. They said they wanted [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Nov 14, 2012\nTest your strength!\nWe enjoyed the last of the warmer weather as a team with an outdoor carnival! Our Events Committee brought together classic carnival food and games for a fun team event. We had a great time eating popcorn, snow cones, and nachos while engaging in some friendly competitive games: speed pitch, high striker to test our strength and other lawn games. I was able to talk with one team member after the event and I asked her a few questions about what she thought of the carnival. Q: What was your favorite part about the FFF carnival? A: Getting together with everyone outside of working to be able to have fun. Q: What games did you like the best? A: I liked the strength game. I tried my best to get the highest score. Q: What food did you enjoy? A: The nachos were great! For me, my favorite part about [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Oct 16, 2012\nPenny Wars,\nThe results were in! In an effort to support the United Way, Distribution Center T551 had Penny Wars. We divided ourselves into 6 groups: 1 for each senior leader/shift group and1 for the non-operational team members. The rules were simple: raise as many points as possible to win. Each group had a collection bucket that anyone could contribute currency to. Pennies were worth one point each, however, larger currency was deducted from the total. The points were added up at the end and the execs from the group with the lowest amount of points received a pie in the face! When I announced current standings each morning at start up, the team members smiled the few times I said that our A1 shift was near the bottom. I think the team members would have had a kick out of seeing me in the hot seat! After 2 weeks, the points [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Sep 25, 2012\nThe best teammates!\nRecently I hung 3 posters around the distribution center all asking the same question: \u201cWhat is the best part about working with your teammates at T-551?\u201d I asked all team members and leaders to write on the poster. We received a wide range of responses and I realized that there are so many things that I really enjoy about working with my team and peers. One thing that I consider the best part about working with my teammates is the fun that we have together during the work day. One day during start up (our morning team huddle), one of my team members brought in stick on mustaches. I asked if I could have one, and the one that I picked was a blonde mustache to match my hair. I wore the stick-on mustache all through start up announcements, warm up for work, and throughout the beginning of the shift [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Aug 30, 2012\nCelebrate more birthdays!\nEveryone likes to celebrate birthdays, right? Celebrating more birthdays is a goal I share with Relay for Life. I recently attended Relay for Life at the Blaine High School in Blaine, Minnesota with peers and team members from our distribution center. Relay for Life is an annual event supported by Target and other organizations. It is an opportunity to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remembered lost ones, and fight back against disease with the American Cancer Society. The event was from 5pm to 5am on a Friday night. Teams formed to fight back against cancer brought out tents to camp out. There were tents set up by different teams and organizations with food, games, and even a silent auction! At the Target tent, we had some healthy food options including sandwiches, vegetables, and fruit. We also had hula hoops, ladder golf, and other lawn games to [\u2026]\nwater blitz!\nWe\u2019re in the midst of the summer heat here in Minnesota. With a week of temperatures in the 90s and lots of humidity to top it, it\u2019s difficult to remember the days of the sub-zero temperatures only four months ago. With these sizzling temperatures, our main focus here at the distribution center is hydration. Our team members are so dedicated each day and are working hard to ensure our stores are getting the freight they need. Add in some heat and their jobs can get even tougher! To make sure our team members are drinking enough water and staying hydrated, the group leaders did a water blitz this weekend. We piled onto golf carts, grabbed cases of cold water bottles and visited each team member to remind them of hydration and provide some cold water to drink. I visited a team member loading a trailer that was going to be [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Jul 17, 2012\nPenny Wars for United Way\nIf you happened to be walking and noticed a penny or a $5 bill lying on the sidewalk and you only had time to pick up one, you\u2019d choose the $5 without a doubt. However, during our Penny Wars for United Way, I would much rather prefer pennies than any other currency! To jump start our support for the United Way, we are currently in the thick of Penny Wars between 6 groups at the distribution center. Each key (leadership group that works the same schedule) has formed a group and then we also have the senior group leaders as another group and the non-operational executives in another group. Each group has a jar that is located near the entrance of the building. The object of penny wars is to accumulate the most points at the end of a 2 week period. Pennies are worth 1 positive point each. All other currency [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Jun 27, 2012\nroad trip to Cedar Falls Iowa!\nCedar Falls,\nSix a.m. Wednesday morning, two vans of group leaders were headed down to Iowa. Our destination was the T-590 Distribution Center and T-3895 Food Distribution Center in Cedar Falls. We had a full agenda ahead of us once we arrived at the buildings. Our first stop was the Distribution Center to complete a best practice assessment. We conduct best practice assessments to help Distribution Centers support our distribution mission of driving sales profitably while delivering what guests want. Distribution Centers are typically assessed by the Assurance team from Headquarters once a year. To ensure that we\u2019re following best practices year-round, we conduct self-assessments and assessments of other buildings when we get the opportunity. Upon arriving at T-590, we split up the series of best practice questions and got to work. We checked to make sure everything was compliant \u2013 from updating training files to observing safe behaviors of team members [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Jun 6, 2012\nchange is always consistent at the distribution center\nIf you asked me what a typical day would look like for a group leader, I would not have an answer for you because each day is so different! That is one of the reasons why I really love to work at the distribution center. The overall goal for the day is always the same, but there are definitely some surprises. When I first started in this role, I would print my calendar for the day. After about the third week here, I was constantly making changes, crossing out meetings, and shifting priorities based on what the day would bring. Yesterday was a great example as to why I have started saving paper and stopped printing my calendar. It was a humid morning and we were expecting some thunderstorms. Before the shift started at about 5:30 a.m., I was planning on focusing on the team\u2019s performance for the day by [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | May 31, 2012\nFast, Fun and Fifty at T-551\u2026 the planning begins!\nCityTarget,\nfastfunandfifty,\nIt was 50 years ago that Target opened its doors at T-1 in Roseville, MN. The product that filled that store for the first guests came from our Distribution Center, T-551! This marks a huge milestone for our building and we are excited to be planning a special celebration to recognize our success. We have so much history at our building and we will be giving team members an opportunity to share their favorite memories about Target during our celebration in a few weeks. We currently have 3 posters circulating where team members are adding inspirations on different themes about Target. The themes include \u201cThe 50 things I love about Target,\u201d \u201cWhat does your crystal ball say?\u201d (predictions for the future 50 years), and \u201cRemember the good times\u201d (favorite memories). Team members and leaders are starting to add things to these posters. Some of the responses for the things the [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Apr 27, 2012\nThis past weekend I had the opportunity to attend the Mindful Leadership Retreat along with 25 other Target team members that are involved in leading and supporting well-being. I remembered back to when I first received the invite to the leadership retreat and I asked myself what is mindful leadership? I was about to find out. The leadership retreat was held at the Gainey Conference Center in Owatonna, Minnesota. The center was the home and farm of the late Daniel C. Gainey and it was absolutely beautiful. The white-washed brick, gold features, and chandeliers were still from the home that was built more than 50 years ago. During the retreat we focused on mindfulness, paying attention intentionally and training the mind to be in the moment. It took me quite some time to learn how to focus and to find clarity in my busy mind. I learned that autopilot isn\u2019t [\u2026]\nNo Excuses Not to Be Healthy\nOur well-being challenge was just our first step to focus on our health as a team. There are so many resources available at the distribution center to help support our health. One of the incentives to winning the well-being challenge was a free membership to our in-house fitness center for one year! Unfortunately our Team Spice Girls finished in 4th place, but we still do have the opportunity that many of our team members take advantage of: a low cost fitness center membership. The fitness center is located near the front of the building and has treadmills, weights, and everything else that a typical fitness center has to offer, but for much less! This is just one of the many resources available to our team to help us improve our health well-being. Recently, our vending machines have begun to offer additional healthy food choices. In the vending machines, these healthier [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Mar 15, 2012\nNew Year\u2019s Resolutions \u2013 Distribution Center Edition\nI know I\u2019m not alone when I say I\u2019ve been guilty for deciding on a New Year\u2019s resolution and quickly forgetting about it once the middle of January rolls around. However, this year will be different! Our Distribution Center is currently in the midst of a two month well-being challenge that is helping jump start and sustain our focus on well-being. In December, we chose teams and came up with fun and creative team names (I\u2019m representing Team Spice Girls of course!). Each week, we award ourselves points on a well-being scorecard. Different challenges are worth varying amounts of points. Some examples of challenges include: 2 points for every 15 minutes of physical activity you complete a day, -1 point for each unhealthy snack you consume, or 4 points for every volunteer event you attend. The team with the most points at the end of the two months wins! This has been [\u2026]\nby julia Distribution Group Leader | Feb 13, 2012\nWho would have ever thought we could have a tailgate in the middle of a Minnesota winter? The Distribution Center in Fridley, MN kicked off 2012 with food, games, and a presentation of our goals for 2012. One of our goals for this year is to continue to focus on our personal well-being. Small changes can be made to improve our overall well-being. Instead of your typical tailgating food such as hot dogs and hamburgers, we provided a healthy salad bar to promote our health well-being. The variety of toppings and salad dressings were endless and the team enjoyed a healthy snack! We also provided resources and information posted around the break room that stated our building goals for 2012. One of our building goals is to have a green score for best practice. Best practices are common processes used by each distribution center to operate efficiently and in the [\u2026]",

When the cooling unit is not performing as it should, it can make you swelter even more on those warm summer days and nights. It\u2019s uncomfortable and not much fun. Here are the most common reasons of for poor dehumidification.\nCommon Reasons for Inefficient Dehumidification\nOld A/C Unit\nIf your air conditioner device is too old, it may be time to replace it. Over time, parts wear out and so your unit won\u2019t do its job as it should. Don\u2019t forget to schedule regular maintenance inspections, as a neglected unit can cause this problem too.\nSingle-State A/C\nIf you have a single-stage A/C, it means that it only runs at one speed. This model reaches the desired temperature in your home quickly and then turns itself off. So, it doesn\u2019t have enough time to draw the humidity out. Consider investing in a modern A/C system with a variable speed motor and air humidity control.\nOversized A/C Device\nIf your unit is too big, it won\u2019t run for a long time because it fulfills the cooling load quickly and then shuts off. Consequently, it won\u2019t remove humidity from the air. The correct size of air conditioners run longer. This means that if you want your unit to dehumidify your home while cooling it efficiently, make sure you select the right size. Expert HVAC installers will help you with this task.\nAll in all, a bigger cooling device will not do its job efficiently. It will not only generate discomfort during the hottest days of the year but you will end up paying more on energy bills. On top of this, an increase in excess air moisture can also damage your house and reduce the indoor air quality. For these reasons, it is important to schedule regular maintenance with HVAC experts in Colorado.\nCall Quinnair at 303-980-3788 to see how we can help.",

        "raw_content": "Posted on September 17, 2015 by rachelandrewadoption\nDid You Know? About Open Adoption.\nIn VERY SIMPLE terms, Open Adoption means that the adoptive family and the birth mother/family share some level of identifying information and ongoing contact.\nAs we learned about open adoption, we grew more confident that it was beneficial for everyone involved. The birth mother (and possibly father) play a big part in choosing the adoptive parents and have an understanding of they type of home the child will be raised in. The child knows where they came from and has access to information about their birthparents including cultural and medical history. As for us as the adoptive parents, we just know that this kind of transparency is the right thing to do.\nIn open adoptions, birth mothers get to say what\u2019s important to them. Does she want her child to be raised in a city, a suburb, a small town\u2026with a family who has similar hobbies\u2026.who share her beliefs and values\u2026who are this or that or whatever. An agency then gives her letters and pictures of families that fit that criteria. These help to give a little view into the adoptive parent\u2019s lives and likely includes info on their relationship, families, careers, hobbies, lifestyle, etc. At some point, a birth mother will look at our profile and either just pick us or we\u2019ll meet for lunch and see how we feel about each other. We\u2019ll each have the opportunity to say if we want to move forward.\nAs my friend Steven said, \u201cIt\u2019s kind of like Match.com.\u201d\nAll the studies show that an open adoption is most beneficial to the adopted child. All the medical histories can be shared, and there is no mystery for the child to have to unwind later on. An open adoption also means that the birth mother, and even her extended family, may have an on going relationship with the child after the adoption.\nWe\u2019ll figure out what our open adoption will look like it once we meet our birth mother and get to know each other. It could be pictures once a year or periodic visits. We\u2019ll have to work this out as we go and all of us will try to make our decisions based on what\u2019s in the child\u2019s best interest.\nWe won\u2019t know what kind of adoption we\u2019ll have until we\u2019re in it!\nAnd so for now\u2026.You Know!\nPosted in UpdatesTagged adopting, adoption, adoption agency, Adoption in America, birth mother, birth parents, Chicago adoption, did you know, domestic adoption, hoping to adopt, open adoption, open adoption beneficial, Rachel and Andrew",

        "raw_content": "incorporating the child\nHas it really been an entire week since I was last in this space? Really? My, time flies. Well, when last I was here, I mentioned that Robin, Coree, and I would be speaking at the Biodynamic Farming Conference over the weekend. That has already been days ago at this point. A lot of water has passed under that bridge. Silly me\u2026 I was so apprehensive about the whole thing and our talk, or \u201cconversation\u201d rather, went just fine. Especially when, towards the end of our time my dear husband walked in with a tray of beverages for the three of us. (Beer for Robin and me, tea for Coree who was feeling a bit under the weather.) The group of attendees, mostly women but a few exceptional men, couldn\u2019t have been better. Once we farmwives finished up our blabbing\u2026 I mean sharing our experiences\u2026 we opened the floor for questions. For me, that was the best part. I got to hear stories and questions from some pretty remarkable people.\nOne woman in particular has been in my mind since our talk. She queried about how homeschooling our children is incorporated into our overflowing days. I could tell she was in the thick of it, in her own life. I did my best to answer her question, but I was left feeling trite and inadequate and maybe not very helpful.\nDamn if I don\u2019t really know the answer. I guess, as a matter of speaking, there is more than one way to skin a cat. Some days are smooth. Some aren\u2019t. Some days the children are eager to be involved in whatever we are doing. Some days they even help without being asked. Some days they don\u2019t help when I beg and bribe. Some days I feel like my kids are eager to do some \u201cschoolwork\u201d and other days I think they would prefer to shovel out the outhouse. Just when I feel like my kids are geniuses, I suddenly want to scream because I get asked a simple question that I know I have answered a million times already. And on and on. Day in and day out.\nClearly, I\u2019m fumbling along here. I have found, in my limited experience, that each child is different. Very different, in fact. I do have a Waldorf-based homeschool curriculum that I very loosely use as a guide, like a beacon in times of darkness, but for me and my family it is not the definitive end all. The nature of our lives here on the farm determines so much of what we do. For those of you who homeschool in a more urban setting, I\u2019m sure your experiences differ greatly from my own. Or maybe they don\u2019t. I have no grounds for comparison, really. All I know is that if you are homeschooling your children, you spend a lot of time with them. Obviously, a lot of that time is not spent on schoolwork, but on living your respective lives.\nSo my best answer, simply put, is to incorporate the child.\nEven if it makes you want to pull your hair out on occasion, take a deep breath and Incorporate the child in whatever you are doing as much as possible. I mean, I\u2019m not so hard core as to make the kids suit up and go with me to milk the cow when it\u2019s seventeen degrees if they don\u2019t want to (even though not so long ago that was a simple fact of life), but you get my point. After all, the decision to homeschool was made by some adult in your household for some reason or another. It\u2019s only human nature to question ourselves, especially in times of uncertainty. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever met another parent that feels 100 percent confident 100 percent of the time. Our questioning is a good thing. It leads to growth.\nProbably the most beautiful thing about homeschooling, other than being witness to my children\u2019s expanding horizons, is that there is just so much opportunity. Big lessons can sneak into the mundane tasks associated with life. Lessons don\u2019t always have to be dramatic or overly orchestrated. A child\u2019s curiosity is an amazing force. Just be present. Be with your child(ren) and experience the world together. Incorporate the child, let them feel their worth, and enjoy the journey.\nThis entry was posted in cher's posts and tagged children, homeschool, homeschooling, life, life learning, raising children, unschooling by cher.

        "raw_content": "The year before, when I was selling ads for the first two issues of Pyramid Magazine, at my boss\u2019s recommendation I\u2019d reached out to a small company that was working hard to innovate in the early 1990s game industry. They were based out of Seattle, something like seven people in a basement studio.\nIt was a drawback at the time that there were so many role-playing games \u2014 they were all so different that it was hard to share monsters and adventures and other material from one game to another. When you wrote role-playing game material, you had to write it for a specific game. This little company had taken a novel approach by putting out a book that focused on cool material, and then including rules for a wide variety of popular games. Sadly, one of the game publishers thought that they should have exclusive control over creating content for their game, and sued the new publisher. I was glad to report in Pyramid #1 that they\u2019d won their case, though it took a real toll on the small company. I was happy to help provide them with an inexpensive promotion, seeing how a full-page black-and-white ad cost something like a couple hundred dollars.\nYou didn\u2019t have to be a designer to think poorly of them because of the ad. It was crap: a not-great illustration of a thoughtful robot set against a white void, alongside a column of text thick enough to cross your eyes. But buried at the bottom was a mysterious line, encouraging fans to watch out: \u201cIt\u2019s going to be a magical summer!\u201d Something about that stood out to me, echoing back over in my head not four months later that summer when Doug Barnes approached me at the Origins convention holding something new.\n\u201cIt\u2019s interesting,\u201d he said, fumbling with a garishly designed deck of cards \u2014 they hadn\u2019t really upped their styling much from where they were with that ad, beyond moving to full color.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a card game?\u201d\n\u201cSort of. It\u2019s a collectible card game. You can buy a deck, but you can also buy these booster packs of something like eight random cards \u2014 sorry, not-random cards. That\u2019s the trick.\u201d\n\u201cThat they\u2019re not random?\u201d\nHis face lit up. Something cool to explain! Doug lived for that.\n\u201cYes! There are something like 400 different cards, so you only get some in any given box. Some cards are more common than others. Most cards are pretty common, a good number are uncommon \u2014 you get maybe two in a booster pack \u2014 and a few very powerful cards are rare, so you get, like, one rare card per booster. Then based on the powers of your cards \u2014 see the colors; similar colored cards work together well \u2014 you build custom decks optimized for one strategy or another.\u201d He blinked. \u201cProbably the best thing to do would depend on how much you could find out about your opponent\u2019s deck.\u201d\n\u201cSo this drives people to buy the cards, okay. Is the game any good?\u201d\nHe winced. \u201cYeah. They\u2019re paying their employees in stock right now, though, so there\u2019s probably not a lot of free cash lying around to pay designers. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019ll go anywhere \u2014 it comes out in a month, so I guess we\u2019ll see. I was talking to them about doing an online version, through io.com. It wouldn\u2019t be too hard to do. It\u2019s a formula that would work even better as a computer game.\u201d He sighed. \u201cThey\u2019re all really excited about it over there at their booth.\u201d\nGame conventions could be boisterous scenes, large exhibition halls with row after row of game publishers trying to promote their newest thing to all the fans \u2014 and generally also to the distributors, who held the keys to the retail kingdom in terms of which companies and products got promoted to the stores, or not. Our company was a fan favorite, and the show was in our home state, so we had a larger booth with a lot of attentive fans. A ways away I could see their booth, small but decently manned enough to make up for the lack of floor traffic they were getting.\n\u201cI wish \u2019em well,\u201d I said, even though it turned out they didn\u2019t need it, not nearly at all. They believed enough in the promise of their game that they were happy to press five or six decks and a bunch of boosters into my hands of the first print run of their game, which if I kept would be worth many thousands of dollars today.\nThe company was Wizards of the Coast. They called their game Magic: The Gathering, and in a handful of months it had completely transformed the entire gaming industry.",

        "raw_content": "Yesterday ended up being a very long day, but it was worth it! I had to get myself awake and moving and out of the house about the time of day that I am often heading to bed because I had my NRA Basic Pistol (CCW) class set up. I am not used to sitting in a classroom for hours on end anymore; it\u2019s been years since I did that on a regular basis (other than at conferences, and that\u2019s a little different). I did learn a fair amount, though. It definitely got some thoughts chasing around in my head.\nThe range time towards the end of the day was like a reward for having been good all day long. Each person in the class got one-on-one time with one of the instructors, not only to \u201censure competence\u201d but also for them to work with each of us on the mechanics of how we shoot. I used my Kimber .45; the instructors didn\u2019t seem at all surprised to see me (the only girl in the class) with a .45, but some of the guys in the class were a bit shocked. I had no trouble showing \u201ccompetence\u201d with my firearm, so I was off the range fairly quickly.\nOne interesting thing that they had each of us do, though, was to fire a few shots at the end with the gun held in tight, pretty much right at my chest. Admittedly, if I ever have to use it, it may well be at exactly that short range, so it is good to know how it feels\u2026it\u2019s rough and loud and hot, and I could taste it. But if I ever have to, the shot itself won\u2019t startle me now, and it won\u2019t scare me into dropping the gun.\nAfter class was done, I got a treat! I went to another local range where I met THOT. He had invited me to come and see (and shoot at) a low-light/flashlight event. I was so unprepared\u2026I don\u2019t (yet) own a holster, and I only (so far) have a single magazine for the Kimber. THOT loaned me a holster and extra magazines so I could participate, and when they realized that I\u2019ve never participated in any sort of shooting match before, the people running it didn\u2019t turn the lights out on me, so I didn\u2019t have to juggle a flashlight my first time through.\nCategories: Firearms\t| Tags: CCW, Competitive Shooting, Kimber | Leave a comment",

Only 22 percent of local government respondents indicated a preference for the federal system to remain the same in another 100 years, against 70+ percent preferring significant structural change (50 percent seeking regional governments that replace the states). This higher-than-expected interest in change suggests that ongoing national reviews of the position of local government will need to reconsider federalism's values and structures from first principles, including engagement by Commonwealth and states alike with the principle of 'subsidiarity', if they are to deliver any long-term gains.\nAustralian Journal of Public Administration",

        "raw_content": "Obama Administration Ordered to Make Some Forms of EC Available Without Restrictions\nJun 5, 2013, 5:12pm Jessica Mason Pieklo\nThe Second Circuit Court of appeals denied in part the Obama administration's request that an earlier ruling to make emergency contraception widely available be put on hold.\nA state judge ruled Monday that age and identification requirements on the sale of emergency contraception passed by the Oklahoma legislature should be blocked.\n23ABCNews / YouTube\nThe Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) must immediately comply with an earlier order by U.S. District Court Judge Edward Korman to make some forms of levonorgestrel-based emergency contraception available without a prescription and without point-of-sale or age restrictions.\nThe ruling came in response to the administration\u2019s request for a stay while it appeals Korman\u2019s order. The Second Circuit\u2019s order, only two pages, is a partial win for women\u2019s health advocates; while it lifts restrictions on two-pill variants of emergency contraception, it grants the Obama administration\u2019s request to stay, or pause, Judge Korman\u2019s order as it applies to one-pill products, such as Plan B One-Step, pending the outcome of the government\u2019s appeal. That appeal will be placed on an expedited schedule as requested by the administration.\nIn a statement, Nancy Northup, president and CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights, said: \u201cToday\u2019s decision from the 2nd Circuit marks a historic day for women\u2019s health. Finally, after more than a decade of politically motivated delays, women will no longer have to endure intrusive, onerous, and medically unnecessary restrictions to get emergency contraception.\u201d\nThe Obama administration appealed Korman\u2019s decision earlier this month, just one day after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Plan B One-Step to be sold over-the-counter to consumers ages 15 and up. But even that approval was limited, restricting sales to stores that have an on-site pharmacy and only to those with identification. The Plan B approval was in direct conflict with Judge Korman\u2019s April order requiring all emergency contraception be made available over-the-counter and without point-of-sale restrictions.\n\u201cMedical experts, the FDA\u2019s own scientists, and a federal court have all agreed: there are no medical grounds to keep emergency contraception behind the counter for any woman\u201d Northrup said. \u201cExpanding access to this safe and effective way of preventing pregnancy after failed birth control or unprotected sex is the among the very best decisions our federal government can make for women\u2019s health.\u201d\nA schedule for the full-appeal is not yet available.\nAccess to contraception, Contraception, Emergency contraception, Emergency Contraception, Executive branch, Judge Korman, Levonorgestrel, Plan B, RJ Court Watch, Second Circuit, Women's rights",

In addition, 30 of the participants were randomly selected to take part in follow-up interviews which asked why they felt the way they reported. The results revealed that the participants enjoyed a medium level of quality of work life and experienced a medium-to-low level of motivation.

(2012). Nanocomposite bilayer film for resisting wear and corrosion damage of a Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Surface and Coatings Technology, 206(19-20), 4156-4165.\nA nanocomposite NiSi 2/Ti 5Si 3 bilayer film was engineered onto Ti-6Al-4V alloy by double cathode glow discharge. The outer layer of the resulting film comprised of NiSi 2, having dense and fine-grained (35nm in size) columnar structure with a fraction of nanoscale twin bundles, and the inner layer consisted of equiaxed Ti 5Si 3with a grain size of 50nm. Nanoindentation was carried out on polished cross-sections to measure the elastic modulus and hardness of each layer of the as-deposited film. Scratch tests were undertaken to evaluate the resistance of the as-deposited film to both abrasive and adhesive damage. The dry sliding wear experiments were conducted against ZrO 2 ceramic balls under the applied load ranging from 3.3N to 4.8N at room temperature and 500\u00b0C using a ball-on-disc tribometer. Compared with the Ti-6Al-4V alloy, the specific wear rates of the alloy coated with the bilayer film decreased by one order of magnitude at room temperature and were further reduced by one order of magnitude at 500\u00b0C. The electrochemical behavior of the coated alloy was characterized by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 5wt.% HCl solution. The results revealed that nanocomposite NiSi 2/Ti 5Si 3 bilayer film exhibited a higher corrosion resistance than the Ti-6Al-4V alloy.",

Again, it goes back to the first day, or the first conversation series, about how art.yale.edu was so much about the community of the school. And it works because there is a very distinct and specific community that you can draw a line around. Maybe meaning comes because the community is defined\u2014it\u2019s not so open. But I\u2019m not sure, and that sounds terrible to say.\nMatt: That sort of sounds like what Facebook is getting a lot of push-back for. They\u2019ve almost algorithmically defined what that community is that only you are seeing, like people who like similar things that you do.\nLaurel: It almost seems like there needs to be more fiction in the beginning. What if adding a friend was like 10 times harder?\nAyham: Like it is in real life?\nRC: I do think that certain sites will draw specific crowds. But with larger websites that millions of people use, community is often more open than in real life (or at least the perception of it). I think that's what makes people more brave to enter, to comment, to befriend. Maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's not if that space is needed for specific conversations from a certain group. But it's even starting to influence the way people even meet. But through these web platforms, they also reinforce their own ideas about community and what they value, through the things they post or write about or even just like (on FB). There's just a different set of rules...\nKatelyn: Actually, if that were the case, I think people would approach these websites a lot differently. There\u2019s this humanistic aspect that it doesn\u2019t live forever, and so you feel a sense of shared responsibility or maintenance.\nDan: You\u2019d use it, but you wouldn\u2019t invest in it. That seems like it could be totally healthy.\nRC: I think now people believe that the internet has the capability to hold your information forever. There is something freeing about being able to outlive what you put out. Although I suppose for art historical purposes it's always the inverse. But I think that that allows for commentary about this particular moment, when everything can fade quickly and we move unto the next thing right away.",

        "title": "Turing Machines \u2014 Runestone Interactive Overview",
        "raw_content": "Turing Machines\u00b6\nThe idea for a computer was first described in 1936, over a dozen years before the first electronic computer was ever built. Alan Turing, a brilliant mathematician, was trying to answer a question that mathematicians were struggling with at the beginning of the 20th century, \u201cWhat are the limits of mathematics? What can be computed using mathematics, and what truths can\u2019t be computed?\u201d Turing defined a device (a Turing Machine) that answered that question: Anything that is possible to mathematically compute could be programmed on a Turing Machine.\nFigure 2: Photo of Alan Turing\ncsp-2-2-1: Use the following link to learn more about Alan Turing. Which of the following is false about him?\nHe occasionally ran 40 miles to London for meetings.\nThis is true. He was a talented runner and even tried out for the olympics.\nHe proposed the Turing Test to decide if a computer was intelligent.\nThis is true. He said that if a computer could fool a person into thinking it was a person, that that computer was intelligent.\nHe worked on breaking Enigma ciphers in World War II.\nThis is true. Winston Churchill said that Alan Turing made the single biggest contribution to winning World War II.\nHe went to school in Oxford, England.\nThis is false. He attended King's College at Cambridge and Princeton University.\nToday\u2019s computers work differently than Turing\u2019s machine, but are mathematically equivalent. Anything that is possible to compute can be programmed on any modern electronic computer. ALL computers, from the ones in your microwave to the super-duper computers that predict the weather all have the same basic abilities. Click on the following link to learn more about how Turing Machines work.\nFigure 3: Figure of a Turing Machine\nThe meaning of that statement is huge. For example, it means that it\u2019s possible to run any program on any computer, but it might mean that you have to do a lot of programming to make it work. But it doesn\u2019t mean that we can solve all problems on any computer. One of the important things that Turing proved is that some problems can\u2019t be solved by computers at all, ever.\nTuring\u2019s machine didn\u2019t actually know anything about numbers, which might be surprising for a device that could do any mathematical computation. Instead, it could simply make marks on a piece of paper tape, and then count those marks to be able to do mathematics. In reality, electronic computers are just as dumb. They count using patterns of voltages on wires (e.g., \u201coff,on,off,off\u201d is a representation of the number 4 in binary). But we don\u2019t really want to deal with patterns like this, so people have already programmed basic mathematical operations into the computer.\nWhen you work with a computer, you have all kinds of abilities already built-in by others. Your computer already knows how to deal with numbers and mathematical operations, and lots of other things as well. At the basic level, though, even the biggest, most powerful, most expensive supercomputer cannot solve problems better than a Turing Machine. All computers are exactly the same in terms of what they can do.\ncsp-2-2-2: Which of the following is false about computers?\nThere were female computers.\nThis is true. Look for information on the Harvard Computers and Secret Rosies.\nYou can make a computer with Tinkertoys.\nThis is true. Some students at MIT did this in the 1980s.\nComputers can solve any problem.\nThis is false. Turing provide that there are problems computers cannot solve.\nComputers use sequences of voltages on wires to represent numbers.\nThis is true. Computers use patterns of on and off voltages to represent numbers.\nA programming language (like Java or Python) which is a language that allows you to tell a computer what to do, can do anything that a Turing Machine can do (no more or less). A programming tool like Alice or Scratch can do most of what a Turing Machine can do, but typically, not everything. You can program anything that a Turing Machine can do in Python .",

With this order, five countries have ordered the new system since it was launched in late 2014. Delivery will take place during 2018.\nSince 1948, the Carl-Gustaf multi-purpose weapon system has been supporting dismounted infantry around the world in dealing with a full range of battlefield challenges. The new version, Carl-Gustaf M4, launched in 2014, has all the effectiveness and versatility of the Carl-Gustaf system but its improved and lightweight design, weighing less than 7 kg, offers significant mobility improvements to the soldier.\n\u201cWe are happy to announce that the Swedish Armed Forces, the first and original user of the Carl-Gustaf system, is the new member of our Carl-Gustaf M4 family. With the choice of this new version the Swedish soldiers will have an increased capability to defeat any threat out there, says G\u00f6rgen Johansson, head of Saab business area Dynamics.\n\u201cThe improved ergonomics of the Carl-Gustaf M4 will make the Swedish soldiers more agile and effective on the battlefield. We are looking forward to helping the Swedish Armed Forces strengthen their operational capability\u201d, says Torbj\u00f6rn Saxmo, head of Saab business unit Ground Combat within Saab business area Dynamics.\nWith Sweden as a new Carl-Gustaf M4 customer, Saab has signed contracts with five different nations since the system was launched to the market in 2014\nThe Carl-Gustaf M4 is the latest version of the portable, shoulder-launched, multi-role weapon system. It gives users a wide range of engagement options and allows troops to remain agile and effective in any scenario. It builds on the system's formidable capabilities, offering a higher degree of accuracy, lighter construction and compatibility with future innovations. The M4 is also compatible with future battlefield technology developments such as intelligent sighting systems and programmable ammunition.",

        "raw_content": "In the recent case of Camilla and Gerard Versteegh the Appeal Court declined to increase her \u00a390 million divorce package.\nOne of the main issues being that the couple had signed a pre-marital agreement in Sweden where such agreements are usual.\nIn this case, the wife sought not to be bound by the agreement and wanted the English court to approach her settlement on the basis of the more usual starting point in England of 50:50 share of the assets.\nAlthough the court did not hold the wife to the Pre-Nuptial Agreement it was a significant factor in the decision on the divorce settlement.\nAn important point arising from this case was whether or not the wife was fully aware of the meaning and effect of the Pre-Nuptial Agreement. The court considered that she was fully aware of it even though, in her case, she had signed it only the day before her wedding and had not had legal advice. Part of the reasoning was that she was from Sweden where these agreements are quite usual. The terms of it had in addition been referred to over the years by the wife.\nIt is of note that although the court did not hold wife to the Pre-Nuptial Agreement it did not then disregard it altogether.\nIt does, therefore, appear that the court are regularly taking Pre-Nuptial Agreements into account in divorce proceedings.\nThe present position in English law is that neither party can be held contractually to the terms of a Pre-Nuptial Agreement because it is not binding. It is however given weight when the court make a decision. Where a couple are clear they do not want their assets to start from a basis of equal sharing it is worth having a Pre-Nuptial Agreement.\nThese are often thought of as an agreement that is made after a wedding, perhaps there has been insufficient time before the wedding itself for it to be done. However, a Post-Nuptial Agreement can also be entered in to by a couple who wish to attempt reconciliation after a period apart or even where finances have been a significant issue in the relationship. At the moment it would not be binding at the time of divorce but would be strong evidence of their intentions.",

        "raw_content": "Putnam Market\u2019s William Roach On The 20 Things Every Wine Lover Should Know\nThe British Wine Director is celebrating 20 years at Downtown Saratoga's Wine Room. Here are 20 wine tips for budding oenophiles.\nJune 7, 2018 by William Roach\nPutnam's Wine Room and its Wine Director, William Roach, are celebrating 20 years in the wine business. (Lawrence White)\nIf you\u2019re lucky enough to live in Saratoga Springs\u2014or are a frequent visitor\u2014you\u2019ll know Broadway\u2019s Putnam Market well. When I was a teenager growing up here in the 1990s, I spent many a weekend afternoon in the deli line ordering a sandwich there, but it wasn\u2019t until about 2001, when I was 21, that I could legally enjoy the bottles in the little shop next door. That would be Putnam\u2019s Wine Room, which first opened its doors 20 years ago, and has been a staple in Downtown Saratoga ever since. Let\u2019s say you need a Pinot, Cab Franc or ros\u00e9 on the go. Know that Putnam\u2019s Wine Director, William Roach, will guide you to your next vintage wisely. For one thing, he holds a level four diploma in Wine & Spirits from the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET). In addition, he\u2019s a WSET Certified Educator\u2014meaning that he actually teaches the intricacies of wine. (He also holds an MBA from London Business School and pronounces \u201cprivacy\u201d with a succinct \u201ci\u201d because, yes, he\u2019s British.)\nSays William of his time in the business: \u201cI sold Putnam Market\u2019s first bottle of wine in May 1998. Since then, I\u2019ve had many hours of wine education and many opportunities to taste wine in all manner of places, with many who know more about wine than I do.\u201d This year marks William Roach\u2019s 20th year at Putnam, so saratoga living asked him to share 20 kernels of wine knowledge that he\u2019s learned throughout the decades. \u2014Will Levith\nHere\u2019s William Roach\u2019s (Amazing) List:\nON KNOWING WINE\n1. Wine knowledge starts with geography and a smattering of chemistry.\n2. If you want to appear knowledgeable about wine, try not to mention fruit\nor berries.\n3. Buy two bottles of wine that are similar, barring one thing\u2014price, place of origin or age. Then compare and contrast for sweetness, acidity and persistence. Do not consider which you like better until the very end. Repeat.\n4. Take the sommelier\u2019s advice. Tell him or her how much you want to spend and the style you\u2019d prefer\u2014as in: \u201cI\u2019d like to spend somewhere around $50. I like Pinot Grigio but I want something different.\u201d\n5. When asked to taste the wine, just smell the glass. If it doesn\u2019t smell like it would taste nice, it probably won\u2019t. Ask the sommelier (or wine waiter) for a second opinion\u2014as in, \u201cThis doesn\u2019t smell right to me, what do you think?\u201d Even if he or she doubts your judgement, in a well-run establishment, the wine waiter will quietly bring a replacement bottle.\nIN A WINE STORE\n6. Most customers are fearful of buying wine they, or their guests, won\u2019t like. Familiar brands and high ratings offer them reassurance. If you don\u2019t recognize many labels in a store, it\u2019s because you\u2019ve found the wine equivalent of an indie bookshop. Start a conversation: It\u2019ll be welcomed.\n7. Wines that are out of fashion are usually lower priced and better made than popular and fashionable varieties. For example, this is a very good time to drink California Merlot.\n8. The more specifically the label describes the source of the grapes, the more likely the wine will have a distinct personality.\n9. Wine and cheese go well together: Sweet wine with blue cheese is terrific, hard cheese goes great with Cabernet Sauvignon and washed-rind cheese pairs up perfectly with Chardonnay.\n10. Food will always change the way wine tastes. Sweet food will make a dry wine taste tart. Lemon juice will make a dry wine taste sweet. Protein (cheese) will make a tannic wine smooth. Try it.\n11. Four winemaking companies account for 63 percent of all the wine sold in the US. Their products include all the well-known brands.\n12. The production of well-known wine brands runs to millions of cases. Nobody on Earth makes millions of cases of wine that nobody likes.\n13. Most well-known brands use between two and four teaspoons of sugar per bottle to make the wine instantly appealing.\n14. Wine is the only consumable product on your dining room table that\u2019s not required by law to display the ingredients it contains. Interesting, no?\n15. It\u2019s hard to like any food or drink upon first encounter. That can often be helped in equal measure by peer pressure and sugar.\n16. The joy to be had from a glass of wine is directly proportional to the amount of fun you\u2019re having. In other words, context is, as always, everything.\n17. Never store wine glasses upside down. They will end up smelling musty.\n18. For a large party, keep the choices to a minimum\u2014one red wine, one white wine and one wine with a touch of sweetness. And always buy a little more than you think you\u2019ll need.\n19. Always buy wine that\u2019s good enough, but not too good\u2014nothing that demands to be the center of attention.\nON GIVING WINE\n20. If the recipient\u2019s a total wine geek, give good olive oil. Trust me.",

        "title": "Curse of the Pharaohs - Scare Street",
        "raw_content": "To the Ancient Egyptians, death was the most sublime of states. The sacred journey of a soul into the afterlife was one that need not be perturbed, ever. And it was up to the priests to enshrine the tombs in which kings and queens were buried from any outside disturbance, for all eternity. A person who willingly disrupted the pharaohs\u2019 slumber would have certain calamity befall him or her \u2013 be it sudden death or the onset of an inexplicable disease, the end for those who disturb ancient tombs is far from pretty.\nThe curse of the pharaoh as a concept arguably entered popular consciousness in the 20th Century, particularly with Howard Carter\u2019s landmark discovery of King Tut\u2019s tomb. While his astonishing work in the field of Egyptology earned him worldwide renown, his findings heralded the beginning of the end for him and his colleagues, all of whom died under mysteriously tragic circumstances.\nSince then, numerous stories have circulated in pop culture regarding the curse of the pharaohs. And the misfortune befalling those who dared to disturb an ancient Egyptian crypt remain a haunting warning for future intruders. The following are some of the best known curses to emerge from beyond the grave.\nHoward Carter \u2013 Where It All Began\nPopular belief in a pharaoh\u2019s curse began in earnest when the public became aware of the mysterious deaths of members in Egyptologist Howard Carter\u2019s team, soon after opening the tomb of King Tut in 1922 \u2013 one of the century\u2019s most renowned archaeological discoveries.\nWhen the erstwhile boy king\u2019s tomb was found, journalists reported that the following inscription was on the door: \u201cDeath shall come on swift wings to him who disturbs the peace of the King.\u201d\nThe first deathly occurrence to beset members of Carter\u2019s team was that of his beloved canary. Carter had sent a messenger to run an errand for his home, and upon entering the abode, the boy said he heard a small, human-like cry. He looked, and found that the birdcage once housing the canary now occupied a frightening cobra \u2013 which, incidentally, symbolizes the Egyptian monarchy. The cobra swallowing the hapless bird whole fueled locals\u2019 rumors of a curse, one that was beginning to run a thread of evil throughout Carter\u2019s immediate circle.\nBut perhaps the first truly mysterious death was that of Carter\u2019s benefactor and companion on the excavation, Lord Carnarvon. The English nobleman had been bitten by a mosquito, and later accidentally slashed the bite while shaving. The cut quickly became infected, resulting in blood poisoning, killing Carnarvon. In an eerie twist, an autopsy performed on King Tut\u2019s mummy found a similar lesion on his cheek. To make things even more frightening, the lights in Carnarvon\u2019s home suddenly went out when he died, with virtually no explanation.\nOthers who had accompanied Carter on his dig \u2013 George Jay Gould, Audrey Herbert, Hugh Evelyn-White, Aaron Ember, and Archibald Douglas Reed \u2013 are all said to have died soon after coming into close contact with King Tut. The media frenzy in the 1920s focused on these mysterious deaths, leading to further paranoia. So much so that Italian leader Benito Mussolini, who at one point had accepted an Egyptian mummy as a gift, ordered its immediate removal from his palace, as he feared he would be its next victim.\nWalter Bryan Emery and Osiris\nBritish Egyptologist Walter Bryan Emery was at the top of his game in March 1971, which found him in the middle of an excavation at Sakkara. In his late 60s, the former marine-engineer turned archaeologist made enormous headway in the study of Nubia, Luxor, and Thebes.\nDuring the dig at Sakkara, he came across a small statue of the Egyptian god of death, Osiris. At the end of the long, arduous day, he returned to his office accompanied by his assistant, taking the statue with him.\nWhat happened next is terrifying in its unfathomable nature: upon entering the office, Emery disappeared into the restroom. Shortly thereafter, his assistant began to hear his superior wailing from within, in a pained howl unlike anything he had ever heard. He ran to the bathroom and found Emery clutching the sink, sweaty and trembling. Even upon several entreaties to explain what was the matter, Emery stood silently, a breathless shell of his former self.\nHis assistant ran and asked for help, but it was to no avail. Emery was diagnosed with paralysis on the right side of his body, rendering him unable to speak. He collapsed into death the following day.\nThe Titanic and the Wrathful Mummy\nW hile the Titanic disaster is often attributed to an iceberg and a general lack of experience on the crew\u2019s part, there is another story lurking just underneath the common narrative.\nOne night early on during the Titanic\u2019s journey, English journalist and Spiritualist William T. Stead held court amongst a small group of friends, discussing the meaning of life and death; an existential conversation meant to while away the time.\nWilliam then proceeded to share with his friends the ghostly curse of a mistreated mummy by the name of Princess Amen-Ra \u2013 whom he assured his fellow passengers was sharing their quarters on the very same ship.\nApparently, a rich English nobleman on holiday in Egypt bought the elegantly carved case bearing the Princess\u2019 mummy, and planned to take it back home with him on the Titanic. William whispered to his incredulous friends that the mummy\u2019s case bore a murderous inscription wishing violent death upon all those who dared to disturb the mummy\u2019s slumber. So far, the mummy claimed three lives of those who helped drag it away from its tomb, each dying under mysterious circumstances. And its wrathful spirit was lying still within the Titanic as they spoke, waiting to claim its next victim.\nWilliam\u2019s friends stared at him: could there be such a thing? Was the curse of the pharaohs real? And how could their acquaintance so easily believe in such nonsense?\nSadly, the group did not get a chance to wonder much longer. Seven out of the eight chatting on that fateful night died shortly thereafter when the Titanic sunk, along with William himself.\nFilm Set Shenanigans\n1963 saw the production of one of Egyptian cinema\u2019s most beloved romantic comedies, Bride of the Nile. Starring the leading actress of her time, Lobna Abdel Aziz, the film told the story of an archaeologist working in an area of upper Egypt known to be the site of many hauntings by ancient \u201cNile Brides;\u201d beautiful creatures who roam the verdant river, dreaming of an eternity of love. The archaeologist \u2013 Roshdy Abaza \u2013 is hounded by the spirit of a bride \u2013 Lobna \u2013 who chases him all over the country, but he ends up falling in love with her despite himself.\nThe film\u2019s slight plot and general sense of giddy silliness masks the turmoil of what took place onset, as what was meant to be a quick 3 month shoot turned into a 6 month production from hell.\nWhile much of the film was shot in studios in the center of Cairo, there were a number of sequences that made tremendous use of the country\u2019s rich Egyptian heritage, filmed alongside tombs and ancient temples.\nAccording to popular conjecture, this led the film\u2019s production to be beset by a number of unfortunate accidents. First off, the movie\u2019s titular bride, Lobna, fell ill with pneumonia, forcing her to be hospitalized several times during the production. This even led to the hiring of a special on-call doctor onset, and the building of a fully equipped \u201cemergency room\u201d inside the studio.\nThe streak of bad luck continued as huge photography cranes crashed suddenly into the ground, the camera shattered into thousands of pieces \u2013 almost as though spontaneously combusting \u2013 and one of the main sets collapsed on some of the actors during a scene.\nThe star of the film has gone on record stating that she never indulged in superstitions regarding the curse of the pharaohs till production of Bride of the Nile commenced, and the series of paranormal incidents it incurred. The film\u2019s crew often jokingly blamed her for the disastrous events, since the movie was Lobna\u2019s idea, and the director was her husband at the time.\nWhile modern science has perhaps validated the notion of a pharaoh\u2019s curse, by explicating the very real ways in which people have died by entering a tomb \u2013 malignant forms of bacteria breeding on its walls led to everything from damaged eyesight to complete paralysis \u2013 there remains a spectacularly spooky sense of the mysterious and unknown.\nPerhaps this is due in part to the idea of trespassing the sacred realm of the dead.

        "raw_content": "Comparison of Empirical Relationships for Hydraulic Conductivity Using Grain Size Distribution, Packing, and Porosity Information from the Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site, Boise, Idaho\nClinton Hughes, Boise State University\nMaster of Science in Geology\nWarren Barrash\nHydraulic conductivity, or K, is widely accepted to be the most important parameter for understanding groundwater flow and contaminant transport in aquifers. Most subsurface hydrology research employs methods for determining the magnitude and distribution of K using analytical scales that vary from centimeters to meters. Heterogeneity in K significantly affects contaminant transport.\nThis thesis focuses on the heterogeneity of K in coarse grained alluvial sediments. Several empirical models for the calculation of K, ranging from simple to complex, are used for three of the 18 wells at the Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site (BHRS), which is a research wellfield located approximately 15 kilometers east of Boise, Idaho. All the models use grain size information, and some of the models incorporate porosity information, to estimate K values of the BHRS aquifer at the core (sub-meter) scale. The results are then compared against each other and against independent K data from the site.\nThe empirical models' K values span six orders of magnitude, and the weighted averages of K for most relationships result in K estimates larger than the averages from the fully penetrating pumping test analysis and tracer test. The overestimation is attributed to using effective grain sizes that are not appropriate for coarse conglomeratic deposits with a large range of grain sizes. This study selected a K estimation approach that considers the BHRS sediments to be mixtures of interconnected sand-to-fine-pebble, or \"matrix\" regions, that fit in the spaces between larger cobbles that form the framework of most of the aquifer. K values for each core sample are estimated by computing the effective grain size (d10) and porosity of the matrix material, since flow cannot occur through cobble grains.\nUpscaled K values were calculated by taking the weighted average of the individual K values (36 total values per well) from core for a given well. The upscaled K value for each of the three BHRS wells examined in this thesis is compared to the average K value from (a) a fully penetrating pumping test at the same well (0.05, 0.06, and 0.08 cm/s for C1, B2, and B5 respectively), and (b) tracer test results (0.025 cm/s for elevation interval 839.l to 837.6 meters and 0.033 cm/s for elevation interval 837.6 to 837.1 meters above sea level) at well A1. Of the seven models used in this thesis (Hazen, Beyer, United States Bureau of Reclamation, Kozeny-Carman, Terzaghi, Clarke, and Koltermann and Gorelick), the weighted average K for the fractional packing model (Koltermann and Gorelick) comes very close to the average K values for the fully penetrating pumping test results, while the other models are within a factor of 2 - 5 lower for the effective grain sizes used in these models. The closer match of Koltermann and Gorelick to pump test results can be attributed to coming closer to the calculated de value that is likely closer to the appropriate values. It is apparent that d10 is not always the most appropriate effective grain size to use for the calculation of K. Back calculating from the pump test results to find the optimal de grain size indicated that the optimal de grain size varies significantly from one model to the next (i.e., d4 for Hazen in well C1 to d19 for Terzaghi and Kozeny-Carman in well B2).\nThe modified K methods used here work very well at the BHRS and this approach represents a broadly applicable method of K estimation for coarse grained sediments.\nHughes, Clinton, \"Comparison of Empirical Relationships for Hydraulic Conductivity Using Grain Size Distribution, Packing, and Porosity Information from the Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site, Boise, Idaho\" (2005).

Where it has been used in workplace environments, it has typically been used to enhance theoretical understandings of work and the humans who engage in work. It has not typically been used with an eye to advancing the business causes of the companies it has been used with. In addition, it has not been used internationally with multi-national companies. This is a shame, for with its Elements of Activity and its idea of contradiction, Activity Theory does seem to hold much promise for being able to shed light on cultural issues encountered by companies operating across national boundaries. This research presents a descriptive case study of a company using Activity Theory to shed light on the potential cultural conflicts the company faced as it designed and developed training interventions for use in its affiliates around the globe. The research focused on being practical--on creating tools the company could use, and on detailing the methodology sufficiently that other instructional designers could employ Activity Theory in a similar way in other situations which they felt were relevant. Although Activity Theory was not completely internalized by the company, with the assistance of a facilitator coaching them in its use the company was able to use the theory to avoid cultural conflicts, enhance understandings about cultural conflicts which did occur, debrief cross-cultural training interventions, identify improvements for future training interventions, and publicly share internally held cultural knowledge and beliefs.\nThesis (PhD) - Indiana University, School of Education, 2006\nName: umi-indiana-1423.pdf",

Lack of HIV testing leads to late diagnosis and increased mortality from HIV-related illnesses. Based on the health belief model, this correlational study analyzed the extent to which HIV stigma mediated the relationship between perceived benefits or perceived severity of HIV and the uptake of HIV testing among African American women in New Jersey. A total of 93 African American women aged 18 and older who resided in New Jersey completed online questionnaires. Data were gathered via the Perceptions of Stigmatization by Others for Seeking Help (PSOSH) scale, the Benefits of HIV Testing Scale, and the Severity of HIV Infection Scale. Although there was a relationship between stigma and perceived severity of HIV, this relationship did not translate into uptake of HIV testing. Perceived benefits of HIV testing did show an impact on uptake. Based on the findings of this study, research and intervention programs should concentrate on the potential benefits of HIV testing among African American women. Through dissemination of these findings, positive social change that may result through increased rates of HIV testing in this population and ultimately better health outcomes for patients who have HIV. Additionally, the findings on HIV benefits could be used as supporting data for policymakers to improve HIV/AIDS prevention programs aimed at African American women by emphasizing the benefits of testing.\nAfrican American Studies Commons, Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons, Women's Studies Commons",

        "raw_content": "Evaluating the Implications of Parental Mental Illness for Children Using an Ecological Perspective\nJessica Elizabeth-Rose Carroll, Walden UniversityFollow\nResearchers have extensively studied the experiences and potential consequences of being a child whose parent has a mental illness (COPMI). However, there is no consensus on the best way to support these children, in general or in schools. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the effects of parental mental illness on children by using an ecological approach. Researchers have used ecological theory to illustrate the importance of internal characteristics, skills, and supports for children to enhance resiliency. This study looked at whether COPMI differed significantly from the children of parents of parents with no current or past mental illness (NonCOPMI) on the Developmental Assets Profile (DAP). The study also looked at whether there was a significant difference in the change in DAP scores for the COPMI compared to the NonCOPMI over time. A secondary data analysis of DAP survey results was performed and SPSS v.23.0 (IBM, 2015) software was used to complete one-way and two-way repeated measures ANOVA on DAP scores. COPMI reported lower DAP levels than NonCOPMI, and this difference was statistically significant in some areas of Internal Assets and Social and Community contexts. These findings suggest that COPMI may be challenged in these areas and are in line with previous findings regarding the challenges that COPMI may face and supports the continued use of ecological theory. By utilizing the DAP survey, specific areas where COPMI may benefit from additional supports can help professionals promote resilience among children. Proactive efforts like this, especially in schools, where increasing attention is being paid to mental health education, may contribute to positive social change.\nClinical Psychology Commons, Psychiatric and Mental Health Commons",

        "raw_content": "By now it is well known that infection by the mosquito-spread Zika virus can cause devastating birth defects. Most notably, affected infants can have abnormally small skulls and underdeveloped brains. Scientists have been scrambling to find out why.\nNow infectious disease expert Catherine Blish, MD, PhD and developmental biologist Joanna Wysocka, PhD, along with graduate students Nicholas Bayless and Rachel Greenberg, have found that a population of cells called cranial neural crest cells can \u2014 at least in the laboratory \u2014 also be infected by Zika. They published their results today in Cell Host & Microbe.\nFrom our release:\nCranial neural crest cells are cells that arise in humans within about five to six weeks of conception. Although they first appear along what eventually becomes the spinal cord, the neural crest cells migrate over time to affect facial morphology and differentiate into bone, cartilage and connective tissue of the head and face. They also provide critical molecular signals that support nearby developing neurons in the brain.\nBecause Zika-affected babies also sometimes have facial abnormalities, Bayless and Greenberg wondered whether cranial neural crest cells could be infected by the Zika virus.\nRecent research has focused on the effect of Zika virus infection of the neural precursor cells that give rise to neurons in the developing brain. But Bayless and Greenberg found that not only can cranial neural crest cells also be infected by the Zika virus, they respond differently than their neighboring neural precursor cells to the infection. Rather than rapidly dying, as the neural precursors do, the cranial neural crest cells act as a reservoir for the virus by allowing it to replicate repeatedly. In addition, they begin to secrete high levels of cytokines, including leukemia inhibitory factor and vascular endothelial growth factor, known to affect neural development.\nWhen Bayless and Greenberg exposed neural precursor cells to levels of cytokines equivalent to what was secreted by the infected cranial neural crest cells, the neural precursor cells displayed an increase in structures associated with cellular migration and growth. The cells also began to initiate a program of cellular suicide.\nThe researchers emphasize that their results were obtained only on cells grown in the laboratory and haven't been confirmed in humans. But the findings may provide another way of thinking about how brain size is curtailed by Zika infection.\nAs Wysocka explained:\nOur study brings attention to the possibility that other infected embryonic cell types in the developing head can influence Zika-associated birth defects, including microcephaly, perhaps through signaling to neighboring cells or by serving as a viral replication reservoir.\nPreviously: Zika is just one of many tropical viruses headed our way, says Stanford expert, Countdown to Childx: Talking Zika with a Stanford infectious disease expert, and Zika and reproductive rights: new geographies, similar concerns\ndevelopment11 Stanford Medicine2155 zika10",

        "raw_content": "'Horrible Bosses 2' to be Directed by 'We're The Millers' Writers\nAside from a few very lucky people, almost everyone has to deal with a horrible boss at some point in their working lives - and the weighty profit that Seth Gordon's 2010 comedy Horrible Bosses made at the box office is probably a testament to just how many people have, at some point, fantasized about the policy of killing their employer. Whether portrayed in Dave Harken's (Kevin Spacey) cold sadism, Julia Harris' (Jennifer Aniston) aggressive sexual harassment or Bobby Pellitt's (Colin Farrell) bone-headed selfishness, the strength of Horrible Bosses lay in presenting caricatures of people that a lot of us have run into in real life.\nHorrible Bosses was the second mainstream comedy movie from Gordon, who enjoyed cult success with his fascinating documentary The King of Kong, but has since directed a couple of duds. New Line was pursuing Gordon to direct Horrible Bosses 2 as well, but last month he finally turned the job down due to scheduling conflicts.\nNow THR reports that Horrible Bosses 2 has not just one, but two directors behind the wheel: Sean Anders and John Morris will step in to take over the sequel as their next project for New Line, having recently scripted the box office hit We're the Millers. Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day and Jason Bateman, the vengeful underdog employees of the first movie, are all planning to reprise their roles, though it remains unknown whether any of the horrible bosses are returning (unfortunately, Colin Farrell probably won't be).\nAnders and Morris are a regular writing team, having previously collaborated on films like Hot Tub Time Machine, She's Out of My League and Sex Drive. Anders also has a few directing credits for comedy films under his belt, including the Adam Sandler bad parenting comedy That's My Boy. Together, their track record ranges from decent movies to pretty awful ones, but there's room for some cautious optimism when it comes to them being tapped for Horrible Bosses 2.\nThe script is being penned by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the writers of the original Horrible Bosses movie, so personal interest in the sequel is likely to depend on how much you personally enjoyed Daley and Goldstein's efforts in the first. It will be interesting to see whether Horrible Bosses 2 regurgitates the boss-killing plot of the first movie with Bob Newhart returning as the abusive CEO of Nick's company, or perhaps Nick himself could let the power go to his head and become a horrible boss himself.\nHorrible Bosses 2 doesn't have an official release date yet, but we'll keep you updated on any further developments.",

I guess Glenn doesn\u2019t either? Superstore isn\u2019t perfect, but it does spin America\u2019s troubles into smooth sitcom fare. BRAD\u2019S PICK: The Good Place [NBC, \u2026 Continue reading What to Watch: 11/08/2018\nBinge Watch: Certified Fresh\nMy Crops are Flourishing, My Skin is Clear and I Just Watched Four Seasons of Fresh Off the Boat\nOver the last two weeks, I binge-watched the first four seasons of Fresh Off the Boat. Here are my thoughts.\nI had been meaning to watch this show for a while, but it slowly inched its way up my must-watch list when Nicole came out as a lesbian in season four with an episode that won the show a Gay Emmy!\nI am always on the hunt for a good comedy. I watch A LOT of drama, which is great, but honestly, sometimes I don\u2019t have forty-five minutes to watch an episode and I really hate pausing in the middle. I have watched all of The Office, Parks and Rec, The Good Place, and Brooklyn 99 multiple times. I know there are other comedies out there, but not ones that make me laugh out loud in my living room. Fresh Off the Boat definitely had me guffawing.\nI love Jessica Huang. I love that she is bossy, stubborn, and never apologizes. She reminds me of what I was like as a kid on the playground before my parents taught me to be more likable. Jessica never worries about being likable. She just is.\nOh, Louis. Louis is an adorable, dorky wholesome dad. One of my favorite moments is when we discover how stressed he is about spending time with the kids. Busy running Cattleman\u2019s Ranch, he plans their time together down-to-the-minute and gives himself a pep-talk while running through the schedule before going through the front door. When he is faced with the task of spending unplanned time with them, he panics and doesn\u2019t know what to do. He is super weird and tense. Then his kids tell him that they don\u2019t need entertainment; they want to be around him. It is a major breakthrough for the Huangs and is very, very cute.\nHoney is a character I never expected to like, but I love her so much. The point of her character is to confront your expectations and turn them on their head. Her relationship with Jessica is one of my favorite depictions of adult female friendship on television. There is definitely a world where Jessica would just walk all over Honey, but she doesn\u2019t let that happen. She picks her battles wisely and stands up for herself when it matters. And when it matters a little less, she just lets Jessica be Jessica. I am excited to see where motherhood takes her this season.\nEddie has grown up so much over the series! Both physically (he is tall at the end of season four!) and emotionally. I really love his friendship with Nicole and their use of her Saturn as a safe space. They steer away from talking about race after season one, only occasionally talking about being the only Asians in Orlando. What I love about Eddie and Nicole\u2019s friendship is that they have a mutual understanding of what it is like to be on the outside and they support and protect each other.\nThe season four finale had me crying, even though this is a sitcom. I love the Huangs and all their friends. I probably feel more invested in Fresh Off the Boat after binge-watching than I would if I had just watched the show every week. Sometimes, after a binge, I feel drained\u2013like I just accomplished a major project (like the time I watched six seasons of Grey\u2019s Anatomy over a winter break during college), but watching Fresh Off the Boat left me full in heart and spirit.\nSeptember 29, 2018 October 1, 2018 \u00b7 Leave a comment \u00b7\nWe usually avoid Saturdays, but the reigning significant Saturday show for the last 43 years returns tonight, and Adam Driver \u2014 whose endearing charm made for a solid episode the first time he hosted \u2014 and the promise for a major skewering of the Brett \u2026 Continue reading What to Watch: 09/29/2018\nWeekend Box Office July 20, 2018\nMovies!

        "raw_content": "19 SepThe 5 Benefits of Shopify for eCommerce Startups\nIf you\u2019re thinking of starting or upgrading an e-commerce store it can be difficult to know where to start. Here at Serene Media, we have a lot of experience working with different e-commerce platforms and Shopify is certainly one of our favourites; here\u2019s why\u2026\nSometimes it\u2019s hard to imagine how the older generation lived without the internet. I mean, the internet has brought with it so many opportunities that people are spoilt for choice.\nEnter Shopify; an eCommerce platform that is of Canadian origin. Shopify offers multiple solutions to its clients besides the eCommerce system; it also offers a point of sales systems along with a computer software platform. Shopify\u2019s turn-key solutions have helped improve business for thousands of startups and other eCommerce businesses across the globe.\nThe platform takes care of the common website issues such as a gateway, management, hosting and payment. Moreover, the platform allows users to classify client information for marketing while keeping an eye on their stock.\nOn a global scale, each year, eCommerce industries generate billions of dollars in revenue. The number one key issues for startups is how to reach the heart of their target audience. How accessible, captivating and feature rich the store is for their visitors comes first for startups. In this end, Shopify plays a very vital role in helping startups that want to promote their products or services appealingly. In this blog article, we are going to discuss why Shopify stands out as an eCommerce solution platform for startups.\nThe Birth of Shopify\nWhy Shopify For Startups\nShopify\u2019s journey started like most businesses of today. You realise a need in the market, but the solutions are either below par, expensive or don\u2019t suit your immediate need.\nThis is the situation Shopify\u2019s founder, Tobias Lutke, found himself. He had an amazing line of snowboards that he wanted to sell, but there was no efficient way for him to sell his products online. Being a programmer himself, he found the available eCommerce solutions too rigid and limiting in terms of flexibility when it came to integrating them with other services\nOne Friday evening, after so much frustration trying to find solutions that he would use to sell his snowboards, he found himself thinking of creating a software that would suit his needs as an online eCommerce store. And so, he partnered with his friend, Scott Lake, and begun the work.\nIn the months to come, they found themselves more motivated in creating a business that revolved around the eCommerce software they had built to help other businesses sell their products online and less motivated in selling their own snowboards. The two spent the next one and a half years on expansion and making updates to their platform with the key focus being on flexibility.\nIn 2006, the two launched Shopify, an online customizable storefront builder after an angel investor gave them $250,000 while they raised $200,000 from family and friends.\nThe beginning was rough, and they were forced to go without salaries for close to two years. After a while, Lake left Shopify, and he had to bring in more people. At the same time, people had begun noticing their product and how good it was.\nThe efforts of the new team paid off when the Ontario-based organization became profitable in 2008. In 2010 and 2011 respectively, investors got attracted to Shopify, and they ended up securing $7 million and $15 million in funding. The struggles at the beginning now seem like nothing. To date, Shopify has helped power more than 500,000 online stores selling different merchandise. Besides, Shopify not only serves small-business owners but has big brands like Red Bull, Angry Birds, 50 Cent and Foo Fighters. Business owners using Shopify have so far sold more than $40 billion in products as of 2017.\nAs a shopping cart solution to eCommerce business\u2019, business owners using Shopify don\u2019t have to worry about server maintenance, hosting their shopping cart and above all, how to present their brand and wares to potential clients.\nShopify\u2019s auxiliary apps that are available to its users help business owners manage their complete eCommerce cycle from stock management to customer contact management to shipping.\nThe humble journey born out of a need to design an eCommerce platform that isn\u2019t rigid to the needs of business owners is what makes Shopify stand out as an eCommerce solution for startups. There are multiple of reasons why Shopify\u2019s eCommerce platform is suitable for startups. In our post, we explore five reasons why startups would benefit a lot from using Shopify.\nThe number one reason that most people love Shopify is that they don\u2019t have to be coders or programmers to use Shopify. In short, the platform takes care of the web-hosting and coding issues faced by busi ness\u2019 owners on their eCommerce sites.\nAs such, users don\u2019t need any technical expertise before launching their online store with Shopify. All that\u2019s needed is just the inventory and the business know-how. Shopify exemplifies the Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) rule of thumb. By taking care of the technical needs and website configuration and shopping cart management, Shopify makes it easy for business moguls to focus on their business 100 percent of the time.\nAlthough Shopify has kept it simple, that doesn\u2019t mean they are a basic shopping cart. Besides around the clock customer phone support, a detailed FAQ page and email support, they also offer users a Shopify Manual. The manual consists of guides that help users make the most of their shopping carts.\nThe comprehensive manual gives users an introduction to their Shopify user interface, ushering them through the procedure of capturing information and database management, answering the how-to questions of product display, discount use, collections, sales to the most trivial issues such as shipping and payment. Furthermore, Shopify has a Help Wiki that\u2019s built as a collective effort between its developers and users.\nWith all the materials that Shopify has made available to its users, getting your shopping cart up and running will only take you a couple of minutes or more depending on how you want to customise it.\nNo hosting issues\nHow about an eCommerce platform that requires no web hosting, no software installations on your laptop or server?\nYes, that is how much Shopify wants to save you time and the hosting hurdles that are a common occurrence with most eCommerce solution platforms. Shopify hosts all the shopping carts for its users. The platform takes care of the common website issues such as a gateway, management, hosting and payment. Moreover, the platform allows users to classify client information for marketing while keeping an eye on their stock. Regardless of the kind of products you are selling, Shopify will enable you to do all that without needing any coding to calibrate your eCommerce store.\nBesides the technical benefits, Shopify also helps your startup\u2019s bottom line. How, you may ask. Simple. Having Shopify take care of your web hosting dilemma means there\u2019ll be no hosting costs, no software\u2019s to update and no servers to maintain. All these will help save you money and time that you can use to invest in more stock and time that you can use to focus on your business fully.\nWho doesn\u2019t love a platform that is reliable? This is what Shopify has over other available eCommerce solutions.\nFor instance, if you opt for a self-hosted solution, every second that your server is down means loss of business. This is because your customers are unable to buy your products. Research from both Google and Amazon have shown that delayed page loads even for a fraction of a second cause a notable revenue loss. On Amazon, for example, a 100-microsecond load time delay meant sales decreased by 1 percent. In the case of Google, a half second difference in loading a ten-page result that takes 0.4 seconds and that of a 30-page result that loads in 0.9 seconds meant a 20 percent decrease in revenue and traffic. Bottom line, users browsing the internet in search of products are impatient.\nNow, we aren\u2019t saying that Shopify is immune to downtimes and page loads. However, that headache will not be on you as they\u2019ll be hosting your shopping cart.\nAs such, their experienced team will take care of all the needed server upgrades and maintenance to ensure that your shopping cart is always available and doesn\u2019t suffer from slow page loads. Best of all, should anything stop working, they have a team that works 24/7 to ensure that all emergency issues are dealt with in the shortest time possible therefore taking all the stress from you.\nDon\u2019t believe us? Well, believe their client list. Shopify has a full list of clients who affirm how reliable and dedicated they are: GitHub, General Electric, CrossFit, Foo Fighters, Tesla Motors, Amnesty International, Encyclopaedia Britannica and some 500,000 more. Shopify\u2019s infrastructure allows them to handle all your business needs more reliably and cost-effectively.\nThe visual appearance and design of any online store is of significant value to any business owner. If a store is shabby and tiresome, the business will end up with abandoned shopping carts.\nStartups looking to build a platform on Shopify have the freedom of choosing from multiple readymade templates and themes. If after a while you need more themes, you can still be able to hire a freelance developer to customise it for you for less as Shopify will have already provided you with the needed tools and they won\u2019t be starting from scratch.\nWith over 500,000+ online stores successfully hosted on Shopify and providing them with solutions that they can\u2019t find anywhere else, there is no reason your business shouldn\u2019t feature on Shopify regardless of the products or services you offer.\nShopify\u2019s App Store Integrations\nAs is common with most successful products in the tech space, Shopify has a full community of experts and designers who have created apps that startups can add to their eCommerce options.\nEven as Shopify works on adding more suitable features to enhance the user experience and may not be the perfect solution in the market, its App Store gives it an upper hand over its competitors. The added value from the App Store makes it more reliable and more accommodating than other eCommerce solutions available in the market.\nThere are various types of apps available on Shopify and that help boost Shopify\u2019s functionality. Below are three apps that have gotten great reviews from Shopify\u2019s users on their App Store.\nYotpo Social Reviews\nThe App has gotten more 5-star review than any other Shopify App. Currently, the App has a 5-star review from 1024 users. The Yotpo Social Reviews App works in such a way that leverages the social media market and connects a business\u2019 shopping cart to their review. The connection automatically prompts customers to leave a review which is then integrated into your site. In addition, business owners have the freedom of connecting positive reviews from different sources available on the internet to Yotpo and to their cart. This helps boost confidence in shoppers and generate traffic to your online store.\nDeveloped by Bold, Product Options App allows users to customize the Shopify stocks and categories interface so that they can determine how their products or services get displayed in a quick and easy way. This takes care of the limitations that the built-in Shopify interface has. This enhances the user experience of buyers making it easier for them to find the products they need and for business owners to better customize, display and describe their inventory.\nSEO Meta Manager\nWe all know the importance of an optimized website. Now, how about having your own brand or products optimized for search engines such as Google, Bing or Internet Explorer? This is what the SEO Meta Manager gives you. It gives you the control and power to choose how you want your products or services to be displayed and appear on the different search engines available. Furthermore, the SEO Meta Manager provides support for blogs and homepages so that they can be optimised for searches and help with brand visibility, revenue generation and page views.\nWith a wide range of Shopify Apps available, users are able to get an App to suit their own unique needs. This also means that the functionality of the different apps are suitable to your stock, customers, target market and work as per your terms.\nShopify has evolved through the years sticking to their mantra of flexibility for their clients. When it was launched, Shopify was designed for small to medium size business but later launched the Shopify Plus to cater for big retailers.\nThis goes to show how flexible they are and the importance of putting the needs of the client first. Moreover, the ease of use makes it suitable for most people as there are no coding or programming skills needed. Anyone can build their website in the shortest time possible without the need to spend a huge sum of money.",

The winds have potential be strong and damaging, especially along the coast on Thursday, according to the weather service.\n\u201cIt will still have a bit of a punch to it as it approaches the coast,\u201d Canepa said, adding that big-rigs are most exposed to the dangers of wind on the roadways.\nStrong winds may lead to downed trees and limbs as well as downed power lines, which may cause power outages, Canepa said.\nIn addition to rain and wind, the storms are also bringing high surf to the area.\nA high surf advisory is in effect through Friday morning from Sonoma County in the north to Monterey County in the south, with some areas seeing waves above 15 feet.\nIn the Sierra Nevada, a winter snow warning is in effect through early Friday morning, with snow accumulation at higher elevations forecast to reach up to 5 feet by the weekend.\n\u201cThe jet stream is quite active,\u201d Canepa said, explaining that several storms are expected over the next week and into mid-December.\nIn areas burned by the recent wildfires, a flash flood watch is in effect through Thursday morning. Heavy rainfall over burn scars, including areas impacted by the Camp Fire in Butte County, may lead to flash floods and dangerous debris flows.\nIn anticipation of heavy rainfall, Caltrans has closed a 12-mile stretch of state Highway 1 near Big Sur. The road is closed as a precaution, as these are the first major storms since the road was rebuilt following one of the largest mudslides in state history in 2017.\nToddler killed in Richmond hit-and-run identified\nWoman dies retrieving clothes from recycling container",

It can't be true,\" Federer said after beating Benoit Paire 7-5, 6-4, 6-4 to reach the third round of the US Open.\n\"Eventually, OK, fine I get it, they're allowed to ask it. Then you get to a point where everybody has to ask it because it could be that I would be the one in that very moment to reveal that this might be it.\"\nThe topic of when the 20-time Grand Slam champion -- currently ranked second in the world -- might hang up his racquet so exercises the press that even a casual comment can get antennae quivering.\nFederer himself jokingly used the \"R-word\" as he addressed the Flushing Meadows crowd after his first-round win over Yoshihito Nishioka on Tuesday -- and promptly faced questions about it.\n\"It's a total joke, yes,\" he said. \"So please don't read into it. Don't even write that word.\"\nThe Swiss great admitted it could get wearing, with no new answer to the question on the horizon.\n\"Sometimes you wonder why they ask you again because do they not hear what I said yesterday? Do they not listen to what I said two months ago?\n\"At this point I take it with a smile and I understand that everybody is just doing their job, I guess.\"",

Hope, the Bronx\nState, city and local luminaries were on hand January 9th to break ground on a new three-building affordable/supportive housing project in the Mt. Hope section of the Bronx, a collaboration of Thorobird Companies and ACMH.\nState, city and local luminaries were on hand January 9th to break ground on a new three-building affordable/supportive housing project in the Mt. Hope section of the Bronx, a collaboration of Thorobird Companies and ACMH. The project is unique on a number of fronts: it is the first and largest ground-up affordable project developed by an African American firm since 2011 and is among the few developments to mix supportive, affordable and middle-income housing. Of the 138 units, 41 will be supportive \u2013 funded through the Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative; of the affordable, 14 are set-aside for households earning 90% of AMI and the rest for families and individuals at 40-60% AMI.\nThorobird\u2019s Thomas Campbell welcomed the crowd saying \u201cThe Grand is the first step to providing one of the city\u2019s most economically-challenged areas with quality affordable homes.\u201d\nHCR Commissioner RuthAnne Visnauskas echoed those sentiments, adding \u201cthe Grand is a profound statement that when we build our city and our state, we include everyone in the process.\u201d\nBronx Borough President Ruben Diaz emphasized the project\u2019s income/unit mix \"Creating affordable housing units was a top priority since my first day in office, and the work we have done in the Mount Hope and Morris Heights neighborhoods are a testament to the efforts we are putting in to make this happen. These 138 units in three buildings will provide true mixed-income housing, addressing the needs of low- and middle-income residents, providing supportive units for our most vulnerable residents. I want to thank Thorobird and ACMH on this partnership, as well as Gov. Cuomo and all the New York City agencies that lent their leadership to continue our growth, as a borough.\"\nACMH\u2019s Executive Vice-President and CEO Dan Johansson closed out the program with these words: \u201cSupportive housing is the golden thread, or better still, the iron thread, that runs through the fabric of great projects like this one. It\u2019s gold because it brings the experience and mission-driven commitment of non-profits to everything from the design to the operation; its iron because it brings underwriting that makes projects durable, sustainable, and resilient. It\u2019s a thread because when you step back and look at the fabric of the community, supportive housing is neither seen nor heard. Think about it: people down on their luck due to age, disability or poverty are only seen when they are on the street. When they have permanent, affordable housing and access to a lifeline of social supports like here at the Grand, they are just like you and me, going about their daily lives and contributing to their community. \u201cThey\u201d are no longer them; they are us.\u201d\nFunding for the project came from NYS Homes and Community Renewal, NYC\u2019s Housing Preservation and Development Department, and NYSERDA. The Bronx Borough President, Councilmember Ritchie Torres and Councilmember Fernando Cabrera each contributed Reso A funds with the councilmembers contributing $250,000 and the Borough President contributing $500,000. On-site supportive services are funded through the Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative and will be provided by ACMH. The tax credits were syndicated by CREA, the architect is GF55 and the contractor is M. Melnick & Co., Inc.",

That tape was not with the book, but I had bought the book long ago myself, and I although I had done the book away, I had kept the tape. So now it is complete again. It is very difficult to get rid of things!\nThe Is Elvis alive book is not worth reading, neither is the tape worth listening to. It might be a joke, but I think it was not meant as a joke. It is meant to make money. For people like me, who see life as a mystery, it is sometimes hard to deal with people who spread lies and non-information for money reasons. But this book is too stupid to have any effect. And the tape is stupid too: while there are a few thousand Elvis impersonators in every major American city, Gail Brewer-Giorgio hired a guy who hardly sounds like Elvis. And he has nothing to say either! I have listened to the tape a few times back then, trying to find out if it might be a joke after all, and if I missed the clues. But I don\u2019t think so. It is all just stupid.\nThe other book is very good! It contains all kind of facts about records and musicians, mostly presented as lists. Like this list:\nI found this article about the Doppelganger problem of Fleedwood Mac a good read too:\nI like doppelganger stories. The best Doppelganger story that I know of, is the one about the guy who replaced Paul McCartney, after the real Paul McCartney died in a car accident in the late sixties. I have not written about this, but I certainly will in the near future.\nThanks to Marijn van der Waa I have heard both the complete CD\u2019s by The Fab Four, that I mentioned on December 25th. They were even better than I expected! Both CD\u2019s can be bought at Amazon for only 10 dollars, and that is definitely worth it.\nHere is their version song of a song that I never liked at all, but in this version I can\u2019t get enough of it. What a brilliant recycling of the Fleetwood Mac\u2019s Albatross riff. And believe me, all The Fab Four songs are just as great!\n\u2190 Soul tapes",

        "raw_content": "Sci-Fi Week by Killa Heredia Bratt\nIn our seventh week of fiction, the amazing Terry Bisson has come to teach Creative Writing I a thing or two about science fiction.\nScience Fiction is fiction based on imagined future scientific or technological advances and major social or environmental changes, frequently portraying space or time travel and life on other planets. I was a little timid\u2013it seemed like such a complex genre to step into. And who was I, someone who hardly ever reads or watches sci-fi, to write about it?\nBefore this unit, I was not really introduced to this particular genre, save for the occasional post-\u00adapocalyptic novel. And with the first assignment that Terry gave us, watching The Day the Earth Stood Still, (the original) it seemed I would be diving head first into it.\nThe thing about that movie, is that amongst the spaceships and the robots and the aliens, the real meaning behind it is to be at peace. That war is a childish, immature thing. It is a thing of stupidity. And so even though with all the complex science, everything about it seemed to be straightforward and easy to understand.\nThe real fun started when we all shared out our ideas to each other. There was a huge range between GMO freak accidents, (GMOcalypse!) and animal hybrids which drove some people to incest, and even selected memories being deleted from one\u2019s mind to improve education. Everyone\u2019s imagination just really came together to create these new worlds.\nAnd that\u2019s when I realized there was absolutely no reason to be scared or apprehensive about writing sci-fi. It\u2019s just a way to express your imagination, to deliver the message you want to get across just like you would any other story but with a twist. At least that\u2019s what it is to me. I happen to love using my imagination. And with science fiction, you can do so much with it. So if you want to write stories about aliens or meteorites or even vampires whose to say you can\u2019t?\nPosted in: Uncategorized | Tagged: Killa Heredia Bratt, sci-fi, science fiction, Terry Bisson",

        "raw_content": "Sparx Systems honoured for innovation and industry leadership\nSD Times Top 100 List\nLong Island, New York, June 17, 2014 - Sparx Systems, a global software vendor best known for its popular Enterprise Architect modeling software, has been recognized as an industry leader by the editors of Software Development Times, a leading US-based trade publication.\nThe magazine has just-unveiled the 2014 SD Times 100, listing Sparx for the sixth consecutive year. Organizations are selected for the annual list on the basis of innovation, leadership and \"buzz\" in the marketplace.\nSparx was named to the list in the ALM category - application life-cycle management and development tools. Award recipients in this group - one of seven industry categories in the Top 100 \u00ad- provided the market with \"up-to-date tools and platforms that help developers stick to the plan and avoid falling behind.\" Sparx fits because of its flagship Enterprise Architect software.\nSparx COO Tom O'Reilly said he is particularly proud of the SD 100 Awards because they focus on innovation and leadership. \"Right from the early days at Sparx, we have built a culture that encourages and rewards innovation,\" he said. \"It's also part of our culture to invest in being an active leader in developing open standards.\n\"I'm convinced our ability to provide value to our end-users has always had its roots in our commitment to innovation and leadership, and that value is what fuels our success in the international marketplace.\"\nO'Reilly said the five years since the company first made the SD Times 100 List have been marked by steady growth in its user-base and in its involvement in setting technical standards that are used around the globe.\nThe company has worked with industry associations to create standardized public-domain reference models now widely used in more than 20 vertical sectors - including geospatial, aviation and insurance. These open-standard frameworks can be plugged-in to Sparx' modelling software as extensions, saving enterprise architects and software developers \"an enormous amount of time\" and enhancing quality control during major projects.\nO'Reilly said their software-development team \"continuously and relentlessly\" enhances Enterprise Architect with new features, new efficiencies and new options for customizing the interface. Many of these improvements are based on suggestions from Sparx' user-base, which has grown by 75 per cent in the five years since the company was first chosen for the SD 100. The user base now stands at almost 350,000 -- and Sparx' software is now used by more than three quarters of Fortune 500 companies.\nSeven major software releases have occurred since SDTimes first picked Sparx for its Top 100 list five years ago - most recently in April this year.\nAll this success has provided Sparx with the resources to get more involved as a leader in the worldwide user community. A senior Sparx representative sits as an active member (and Gold Sponsor) on the international Architecture Board of the Boston-based Object Management Group, one of the world's leading standards organizations.\nIn another international trend setting development, Sparx Enterprise Architect has been recognised by global geospatial leader, Esri\u0099 Inc. as the officially recommended technology for users interested in geodatabase design with UML, as it removes the limitations presented by previous tools.\nTo review the latest tools and technologies generating enthusiasm around Enterprise Architect, Sparx conducts a series of monthly webinars incorporating a range of topics that provide valuable tips, tricks and best practices. Upcoming webinars as well as past presentations can be accessed at: www.sparxsystems.com/webinars\nSparx modeling software is widely used in finance, defence, government, aerospace, automotive engineering, geospatial, entertainment, health, smart grid, aviation, retail and telecommunications. Sparx' flagship modeling tool Enterprise Architect is now licensed by three quarters of the companies on the Fortune 100 list.\nSparx software is price competitive even when deployed across the entire development team. Sparx Systems has won five consecutive SD Times Top 100 awards and two Readers Choice Merit Awards from Visual Studio Magazine and Jolt. Now at version 11, Enterprise Architect is available directly from Sparx orbundled with expert support and comprehensive training services - from a network of more than 300 technology partners active in North America, Europe, Australia, India, China, Japan, southeast Asia and Latin America.",

        "raw_content": "Julian Edelman perfectly explains how Patriots build Super Bowl teams\nNBC Sports Boston February 11, 2019, 8:17 PM GMT\nJulian Edelman perfectly explains how Patriots build Super Bowl teams originally appeared on nbcsportsboston.com\nThere's no question luck has played a part in the New England Patriots building the NFL's greatest dynasty, but there are plenty of things they do differently than the other 31 teams that puts them in a better position for consistent success.\nPatriots wide receiver and Super Bowl LIII MVP Julian Edelman did a great job encapsulating his team's roster-building philosophy during a recent interview with NBC Sports' Peter King.\n\"I think they (the Patriots) grade people differently, honestly,\" Edelman told King. \"They don't want distractions. They want guys that are versatile. They want mentally tough football players. That's what I've seen through my career being there. They want a smart, physical, tough football player. If you don't have that, you're probably not gonna be there.\nSo I've been fortunate to have a bunch of teammates-pretty much all the teammates I've had have been pretty good guys. You've got these young kids out here that have to learn, but you learn from the guys above you. I learned from the Kevin Faulks. I learned from the Toms, the Wes Welkers, the guys that worked hard that were there that were playing at a high level consistently. If you don't, they usually get rid of you.\"\nBuilding a winning culture is important, and so is having smart football players who know what to do in every type of situation. These are things the Patriots do better than all other franchises. It's one thing to be athletic and physically talented, but those skills don't mean as much if you don't know when and how to apply them in certain situations.\nThe Patriots do a great job instilling the importance of situational football, and it's among the reasons why they perform so well late in games, particularly in the playoffs.\nNew England will have plenty of opportunities to add smart football players to its roster before next season begins. The Patriots have six selections (one in Round 1, two in Round 2 and three in Round 3) in the first 101 picks of the 2019 NFL Draft. This impressive amount of draft capital is one of the reasons to believe in the Patriots' chances of successfully defending their Super Bowl title in 2019.",

He was ordained on December 22, 1844 in Baltimore Maryland.\nIn 1860, he was considered for Bishop but, requested that the Pope not appoint him as he wanted to be a pastor working with the poor, preaching missions and hearing confessions. The Pope granted him this request.\nBlessed Father Seelos was transferred to New Orleans in 1866. He contracted yellow fever and died October 4, 1867. He was 48 years and 9 months old at the time of his death. Many miracles are attributed to his intercession both during and after his death.\nIt was the recovery of a Louisiana woman from terminal liver cancer that was accepted as a miracle, which helped to Beautify Father Sellos. In August 1966, Angela Boudreaux, was told she had two weeks to live. In December 1999, the Church declared her cured and gave a unanimous affirmative vote for Father Seelos\u2019 beautification. In January 2000, the Commission of Cardinals cast its official vote on the miracle clearing the way for the April 2, 2000, beautification ceremony in St. Peter\u2019s Square in Rome.\nThe Roman Catholic Church has declared this individual \u201cBlessed,\u201d the penultimate step in being declared a \u201cSaint.\u201d\nTo receive a blessing, please contact the person listed on the Parish Bulletin.",

        "raw_content": "Signs Your Portfolio May Be Over-Diversified\nWe recently discussed the issue of over-diversification and some of the most common side effects that investors generally report from having over-diversified portfolios. These issues could include a lack of focus or a general lack of understanding when it comes to investment decisions \u2013 especially for new investors. However, when we consider the issue of over-diversification, it generally leads many investors to question their own portfolios. Many of you may be wondering, \u201cis my portfolio over-diversified?\u201d or \u201cwhat is the sweet spot level of diversification that I should be aiming for?\u201d While the answers to these questions may vary based on your investment strategies, we have put together a list of several of the most common signs that your portfolio may be over-diversified, so that you can assess your own investments.\n1. Owning Only Mutual Funds \u2013 And Not Knowing Where They Are Similar\nMutual funds can be extremely useful investment vehicles \u2013 especially for newer investors looking for a good way to diversify their portfolios. However, just because something works well does not mean it should be used in excess! One problem with owning too many mutual funds is that, while the funds you own may sound like very different investments, they can actually be very similar in terms of their investment holdings. This can become a problem because owning two mutual funds that are very similar can make you feel as though you are doing a good job at diversifying, when in reality each fund might leave you with very similar results. To combat this issue, it is best to read up on the mutual funds you\u2019re looking into before you buy. Familiarize yourself with their strategies, their value propositions, and their holdings, so that you can know what things to look for if you are to go in on another mutual fund.\n2. Owning An \u201cExcessive\u201d Number of Individual Stock Positions\nOwning too many stocks can be a surefire sign that your portfolio is over-diversified. After a certain point, every additional investment you make will drive less and less individual value. So, what is the key number of stocks for an investor to own, then? Most investment professionals will agree that the number of companies is somewhere between 15 and 30. However, it is best not to get too fixated on any exact number \u2013 as long as you\u2019re not invested in too many!\n3. Owning Investments That Are Not Fundamentally Different from Other Investments You Already Own\nFinally, you may be able to get a sense of over-diversification in your portfolio if you go back and analyze the positions that you have. Do you have investments that are fundamentally similar to each other? Think of this in terms of the company\u2019s industry, philosophy, business strategy or market cap. Or, if you are invested in assets other than stocks, how is the structure of each asset different from the next? If you are sensing that you have a lot of investments that seem very similar, you might want to reconsider the positions that you have. One way to alleviate this problem is to plan a set structure for your portfolio by selecting different asset classes or industries and re-assess that structure periodically to make sure that you are staying within your bounds.\nThe bottom line here is that there are many simple ways to see if you have over-diversified your portfolio. By taking a step back and analyzing the current investments you own, you might be able to paint a clearer picture of how to move forward with your diversification strategy!",

        "title": "Gilbert Syndrome Article - StatPearls",
        "raw_content": "Viveksandeep Thoguluva Chandrasekar\nGilbert syndrome is the most common inherited disorder of bilirubin metabolism leading to decreased glucuronidation of bilirubin. Augustin Nicolas Gilbert first described the condition in 1901. It is also called Meulengracht disease or constitutional hepatic dysfunction or familial nonhemolytic jaundice. It is generally a benign condition characterized by recurrent episodes of jaundice. Patients are usually asymptomatic, except for the finding of icterus or jaundice. No treatment is usually necessary.\nThe episodes of jaundice can be triggered by several factors such as fasting, dehydration, inter-current illnesses, overexertion, stress, hemolysis or menstruation. By reducing the total calorie intake to 400 Kcal per day or being on a normocaloric diet without lipids, these patients can have a rise in plasma bilirubin concentration up to three times normal within 48 hours. The plasma bilirubin returns to normal levels within 24 hours of having a normal diet. Several theories have been postulated for this, which include increased cycling of the bilirubin by enterohepatic circulation, decreased conjugation due to a decrease in the levels of UDP-glucuronic acid which is a co-substrate in glucuronidation and also an increased bilirubin load which is released from the adipocytes.\nIt has been reported that the prevalence of Gilbert syndrome is between 4% and 16% in different populations. During adolescence, there is a change in the sex steroid concentration which affects the bilirubin metabolism which leads to increased bilirubin levels. Hence, most patients with Gilbert syndrome present during puberty. It is also more commonly seen in males due to a higher level of daily production of bilirubin.\nUridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, UGT) is a group of enzymes which help with the glucuronidation of various chemicals in the body for metabolism and excretion. UGT1A1 is the enzyme which is responsible for the conjugation of glucuronic acid with bilirubin for the metabolism of bilirubin. UGT1A1 conjugates glucuronic acid to bilirubin and converts it into a water-soluble substance which can be excreted in bile. More than 100 mutations have been implicated in the causation of Gilbert syndrome, but the two most common genotype among Caucasians is the homozygous polymorphism of two extra bases (TA) in the TATAA box sequence of the promoter region of the UGT1A1 gene. The extra bases reduce the affinity of the binding protein to the TATAA box causing reduced gene expression. This results in a 10% to 35% reduction in the UGT1A1 enzyme activity. Patients manifest this syndrome only when they are generally homozygous for this mutation, and hence, it is typically inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. It has been estimated that up to 9% to 10% of the general population of the Western world is homozygous to the variant promoter and up to 42% of the population is heterozygous.\nThe liver appears normal except for mild non-specific accumulation of lipofuscin pigment in the centrilobular zones. There are other mild abnormalities which can be seen in electron microscopy.\nBilirubin-UGT is involved in the metabolism of estrogen and several other drugs through glucuronidation. Hence, individuals with Gilbert syndrome may be susceptible to toxicities from these substances that require glucuronidation for metabolism. Irinotecan is one of the well-known medications with increased toxicity in patients with Gilbert syndrome. The active metabolite SN-38 can get accumulated and lead to diarrhea in these patients. Atazanavir and Indinavir are an anti-retroviral medication (HIV protease inhibitors) which can increase bilirubin level by decreasing the activity of UGT. Acetaminophen and tolbutamide are two other medications which require glucuronidation although their clinical significance is unclear in these individuals. Accumulation of these drugs can lead to toxicities theoretically, but avoidance of these drugs is not recommended currently. Studies on acetaminophen in Gilbert syndrome individuals have shown that intravenous administration leads to decreased glucuronidation but not with oral administration.\nMost patients with Gilbert syndrome are usually asymptomatic except for intermittent episodes of jaundice. They usually appear first during adolescence due to changes in the concentration of sex steroids. When Gilbert syndrome occurs in combination with other diseases like hereditary spherocytosis, glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency, breastfeeding, thalassemia or other conditions which can increase unconjugated bilirubin levels, they may potentiate the increase in the level of bilirubin. Although Gilbert syndrome can cause mild to moderate hyperbilirubinemia in neonates in the absence of any superimposed hemolytic disease, it does not cause significant elevation of unconjugated bilirubin in neonates to cause kernicterus. It has, however, been reported to cause worsening neonatal jaundice when associated with other hemolytic conditions which can lead to kernicterus. Some patients may have complaints like malaise, fatigue, nausea, anxiety, loss of appetite, and abdominal discomfort but studies have not shown any correlation with these symptoms and the bilirubin levels.\nThe only significant laboratory abnormality in patients with Gilbert syndrome is increased unconjugated bilirubin levels, and they are usually below 3 mg/dL with less than 20% of the bilirubin levels being conjugated. When associated with other pathological conditions which increase hemolysis, the level can be higher, but even then it is usually below 6 mg/dL. The diagnosis can be presumed with elevated unconjugated bilirubin levels on repeat testing with normal complete blood count, reticulocyte count, LDH, peripheral smear and normal levels of aminotransferases and alkaline phosphatase. Of note, fasting serum bile acids are normal. There is no role for any imaging modalities in the absence of any other laboratory abnormalities. Provocative tests such as 48-hour fast, observing a rise in bilirubin concentration after a low-lipid and low-calorie diet or after intravenous administration of nicotinic acid (which raises the osmotic fragility of red blood cells), observing a fall in serum bilirubin level on taking phenobarbitone (which induces the hepatic conjugating enzyme) can be considered but they are usually not performed.\nGenetic testing can be used for confirmation when the diagnosis is difficult otherwise. They can be tested by using polymerase chain reaction or DNA-fragment sequencing for DNA mutations in UGT1A1 gene.\nThere is no specific treatment required for patients with Gilbert syndrome as they are usually asymptomatic. Recognition of the disorder and discussion of the mode of inheritance is more important to avoid unnecessary testing in the patient and family members. In patients with co-existing disorders with increased bilirubin levels, phenobarbital can be used to decrease the bilirubin level by inducing the UGTs.\nBilirubin is known to exert an anti-oxidant effect, and in individuals with mildly increased bilirubin levels such as Gilbert syndrome, it may offer a protective effect due to that. Patients with Gilbert syndrome have a lower incidence of ischemic heart disease due to decreased production of advanced glycation end products which prevents endothelial dysfunction and reduces progression of atherosclerosis. Studies have also shown a reduction in the incidence of Hodgkin lymphoma, endometrial cancer, and cancer-related mortality when compared to the general population. In fact, the all-cause mortality rate is lower in individuals with mild hyperbilirubinemia due to Gilbert syndrome compared to the general population. In overweight children who develop the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the mean bilirubin levels were lower compared to those children who did not develop NAFLD. Gilbert syndrome patients are also at an increased risk of developing pigment gallstones (cholelithiasis), and especially in patients with other disorders of hemolysis like thalassemia, Sickle cell disease, and hereditary spherocytosis.\nTake 11 Question Quiz on Gilbert Syndrome",

        "raw_content": "A Tale of Zoning Manipulation in Saint Paul\u2019s Tangletown\nBy Tom Basgen on August 7, 2017 in Preservation\nThe house on Princeton Avenue.\nOur town is filled with gates and walls invisible to the eye. Regulars at streets.mn know how the physical reality around is affected by zoning policy and staid old traffic development manuals, and it\u2019s not my intention to bore you by banging that drum again. But when examples of bad practice come up, it\u2019s important to spotlight them, particularly given the wonky, boring, and exclusionary nature of the zoning realm.\nThis is the tale of another invisible wall being built in Saint Paul to protect the wealth of a small group of private homeowners cleverly using taxpayer dime with only one small caveat, this one hasn\u2019t happened yet.\nIt starts where it always starts, with concerned neighbors. Save Our Saint Paul Neighborhoods (SOSPN) is an organization that conjured itself from the well heeled shadows of Tangletown in the Mac-Grove Saint Paul in 2014 to save a quaint single family home on a big lot from becoming two quaint single family homes on decently sized lots. The group uses phrases like \u201chistorical value\u201d, \u201csustainability\u201d, and \u201cneighborhood character\u201d without attaching any concrete values to their claims.\nThey earned their first victory in 2014 that saved the old Dutch Colonial by endlessly berating the Director of the Minnesota Historical Society, who had made the grave error of purchasing the home and trying to improve it. Since then they\u2019ve spent time berating District Councils, City Council, and the Mayor. This year they hosted a Mayoral Candidate Forum where they scowled and growled until each candidate stood and obediently shouted the words \u201cProperty Value\u201d with varying degrees of sincerity.\nFor this tale though, we\u2019ll go to September 2016, when SOSPN took its first stab at writing its own protectionist zoning code for Saint Paul\u2019s Tangletown neighborhood, entitled the \u2018Tangletown Conservation District.\u201d (Tangletown Conservation District Proposed Final Version \u2013 Oct 13 2016.) The document boils down to essentially this: Nothing taller than what already exists, don\u2019t touch the trees, and everything has to fit into the subjective notion of the \u2018character\u2019 of the neighborhood. It\u2019s that last bit that\u2019s the real kicker. The vagueness of it, if ever adopted, essentially gives the neighbors of Tangletown a veto on any new development or remodel based on nebulous aesthetics.\nFirst SOSPN dragged their exclusionary proposal before the Mac-Groveland Community Council. MGCC\u2019s tepid response was a resolution of vague neighborly support, the fine print of which expresses serious concerns about the actual implications of the SOSPN documents. A particularly poignant line reads\n\u201cConcern about the proper balance of individual versus neighborhood property rights.\u201d\nThat\u2019s the whole point of the Tangletown Conservation District though, to give entrenched, well-to-do constituents power over property they don\u2019t own, to exclude the kinds of people they do not approve of. It\u2019s the whole point of SOSPN. It\u2019s the whole point of every nay-saying platoon across the country. It was the whole point of every neighborhood organization that quickly coalesced in the aftermath of the Fair Housing Act in 1968. It\u2019s the bloodline of the redline.\nAfter SOSPN collected their vaguely supportive resolution from the MGCC they brought it to Ward 3 Council Member Tolbert who put a resolution onto the consent agenda of City Council asking the Planning Commission to study and report the merits of a Conservation District in Tangletown. It passed and now we\u2019re dedicating city staff time and resources to the larval form of an exclusionary zoning ordinance that will be used to bludgeon some upcoming development near Macalester College to death.\nWhat happens next is left to the Planning Commission. We can only hope that they return with the obvious: Tangletown is not under assault, it does not possess historical significance above and beyond the neighborhood around it, it does not possess additional \u2018character\u2019 above and beyond the rest of the neighborhood (save for kinking up the street grid), and it certainly does not merit a \u2018Conservation District\u2019. I pray for an abrupt and uneventful ending to our tale.\nFor me, the lesson is thus: the soft power in the city lives in these quiet undercurrents of dry, boring, bureaucracy. This kind of power is the ability to dictate who can live where, and by its basic nature, this kind of control is only accessible to those who possess the combination of time and education to keep a finger on its faint pulse. Don\u2019t be surprised when people who possess that combination use it to protect and grow their own wealth at the expense and exclusion of others.\nNo good tale goes without a moral, and mine is this: keep your neighbors accountable, and serve each other genuinely.\nDocument dump:\nTangletown Conservation District Proposed Final Version \u2013 Oct 13 2016\nconservation districts, featured, mac-grove, saint paul, tangletown\nMap Monday: Existing and Planned Twin Cities Rail versus Population Density\nThe Stillwater Bridge Story, Part Five\n48 Responses to A Tale of Zoning Manipulation in Saint Paul\u2019s Tangletown\nJohn August 7, 2017 at 1:54 pm #\nI can understand why the people of Tangletown are concerned about tear downs in their neighborhood. It\u2019s because the new houses they put in place are almost always badly proportioned, over-grown, and hideously monstrous. (What is up with the enormous porch posts on steroids?) If the newly built homes were not such eyesores, i don\u2019t think people would be so up in arms regarding this issue.\nIf you are going to replace a building, is it asking too much that the new structure be better looking than the old one? I realize that taste is subjective, and one person\u2019s fake Victorian is another person\u2019s charming McMansion.\nBut I moved into my neighborhood precisely because of the pre-War housing stock. Today, I have over-sized, suburban-style homes popping up like so many mushrooms in my once quaint neighborhood of single-story bungalows.\nIf I wanted to live in Chanhassen, I would have bought a house there.\nSteve August 7, 2017 at 4:48 pm #\nYou bought a house, not the neighbourhood.\nIf you want control over the other lots in your neighbourhood, there is a straightforward and legal way to do this without infringing on the rights of your neighbours \u2013 buy the land.\nAnything less is just asking your fellow taxpayers to subsidize your lifestyle.\n\u201cIf I wanted to eat italian food, I would have gone to an italian restaurant\u201d \u2013 is not a justification for a law that says no one is allowed to build an italian restaurant.\nFreedom means freedom of movement, freedom to own, buy, sell, rent, and freedom to build, even if your neighbours don\u2019t care for it.\nMatt Steele August 8, 2017 at 9:13 am #\nMaybe there could be a requirement that if you tear down a house, you have to add units to the overall mix once rebuilt. Maybe take a SFH and require it to be a duplex, with bonuses for if you do a triplex or fourplex. That would be a huge improvement over teardown McMansions.\nBill Lindeke August 8, 2017 at 9:27 am #\nInteresting idea for sure!\nI think the people building these large houses are the same people that don\u2019t want to share a wall, ceiling, and yard with other people. So I that requirement would put the kibosh on teardowns for better or worse.\nAgree with the comment that taste is subjective. I myself have made fun of the \u201cHouses of Too Many Gables\u201d but on the other hand a lot of residential architecture can variably be classified as homage or parody. This includes the old houses in Minneapolis with stucco and fake timbers trying to look Tudor or the needless pillars of a suburban Colonial Revival inspired house.\nMatt Steele August 8, 2017 at 11:33 am #\nThe people building these large houses are generally developers and general contractors, building them speculatively to sell. If they were allowed to build more dwellings rather than being forced to build SFH and nothing else by the heavy hand of zoning, maybe they would. I know I would love to build some multi-family housing near Macalester.\nMike Sonn August 7, 2017 at 2:32 pm #\nThe background on this story is kinda scary \u2013 n\u2019bors harassed the new owner at her place of employment. She made an effort to rehab the house but the costs didn\u2019t pencil out. Also, we could\u2019ve added another household to our n\u2019hood.\nhttp://www.twincities.com/2014/11/15/st-paul-neighbors-rally-to-save-tangletown-house-from-demolition/\nLynn August 9, 2017 at 1:21 pm #\nThat tactic did not help the neighbors win. The house was saved despite the ill-advised harassment tactic.\nThe sellers were planning to build two very large (two story, 4/5 beds, 3 baths), unaffordable houses, fyi. They were planning to be living in one of those.\nThere is so much wrong about the history people think they know.\n\u201cBut several dozen protesters gathered on the front porch of 1721 Princeton Ave. on Friday evening for a candlelight protest, chanting \u201cSave this home\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t tear it down.\u201d\u201d Candlelight vigil for a house still makes me chuckle. Keep in mind that Fred Melo authored that piece.\nTom Goldstein August 8, 2017 at 11:04 am #\nCompletely biased, cleverly-written, uniformed article by someone who didn\u2019t bother to actually talk to anybody involved with SOSPN. God forbid that neighbors want to save a historic home because they think place and character of a neighborhood matter. Saint Paul would be so much more appealing if all the homes were uniform tiny houses with tiny yards where nobody had pets or kids or cars or even books that might fill up a room.\nLeft out of all the hero-worship for the much-maligned purchaser is that the ultimate plan was to make a pile of money by one day selling these homes. That\u2019s capitalism at work, but don\u2019t romanticize it as some kind of noble effort to increase the housing stock. And it was only because Macalester College held a right of first refusal on the property that had been overlooked during the sale of the home that the neighborhood was able to avert yet another bulldozed house in Ward 3.\nWhile purchase of a lot gives the property owner certain rights, those rights are not unlimited, and pushing for an overlay district that places limits on teardowns or alterations make perfect sense in a historic neighborhood.\nWeren\u2019t they asking for TIF too?!!?\nNope. Purchase and renovation of Princeton house completely funded by private nonprofit HWF and the donated sweat \u201cequity\u201d of two staff people who worked weekends and evenings for three months on that house.\nTom Basgen August 8, 2017 at 9:37 pm #\nHi Tom, thanks. I\u2019d like to think I\u2019m pretty clever too, handsome too.\nDo you know what makes that house historic? Cause God love George and Jennie Williams but immigrants coming to America and building a house, while arguably the most American story of all time, is hardly historic when it has happened millions of times from the beginning of our nation up through today. It\u2019s happening today Tom. We don\u2019t need to preserve that story, we\u2019re living it. Well, Ok, Trump. You got me there.\nFurthermore, any attempt to lessen one\u2019s footprint while creating additional housing stock is a noble effort, and if you can make a buck while doing it that makes you smart too. Don\u2019t get me wrong. Capitalism on the whole is a bum deal and it has no friend in me. It financially incentivizes homeowners to create artificial barriers to building housing because the more exclusive a home is, the more money it\u2019s worth. That has the unfortunate effect of being bad policy who for everyone who doesn\u2019t own a home where the frivolous rules are put into play.\nBeyond that, the Right of First Refusal was only brought into the play after the whole scenario was blown sky high by SOSPN. To say that it was Macalester and not SOSPN that was the cause of the death of the sale is disingenuous or at least, not particularly clever.\nOh and I didn\u2019t talk to anyone from SOSPN about the article because the article is based on an official proposal with a group with a statement of intent at the very beginning of the document. A document which was included for your reading pleasure.\nDaniel Choma August 8, 2017 at 11:13 pm #\n\u201c\u2026someone who didn\u2019t bother to actually talk to anybody involved with SOSPN.\u201d\nI think what Tom is saying here is that it\u2019s unnecessary to give those who have added their statements to the public record a second chance to rectify their statements before using said public record.\nThe whole point of a public record is that it is available to the public unaltered and arguably that provision is core to our democracy.\nThis is why our state law dictates an \u201cOpen Meeting Policy.\u201d This open meeting policy has three stated goals:\n\u2022 To prohibit actions being taken at a secret meeting where it is impossible for the\ninterested public to become fully informed about a public board\u2019s decisions or to detect\nimproper influences\n\u2022 To assure the public\u2019s right to be informed\n\u2022 To afford the public an opportunity to present its views to the public body\nStreets.MN, in my opinion, is an extension of that open meeting protocol and exists in pursuit of the same goals.\nIt is my opinion that Mr. Basgen is not required to give public documents a second edit by their authors prior to publication of Mr. Basgen\u2019s personal views. It may behoove Mr. Goldstein to remember that these source materials exist in order to foster democracy.\nFor reference, I have attached the MN State Open Meeting policy in hopes that all parties may find it useful in fostering a respectful conversation in pursuit of a better city.\nhttp://www.house.leg.state.mn.us/hrd/pubs/openmtg.pdf\nCindy Syme August 9, 2017 at 2:55 pm #\nThat would be great if those meetings we accurately portrayed by the Planning Commission. But we must be vigil about what is actually reported. For example, the public meeting input for the Ford Site plans were wildly inaccurate in the initial report. Only because citizens involved looked carefully at those pie charts, did they eventually revise the public input from a majority for the current plan, to a larger majority against. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to have more than one avenue of information.\nBill Lindeke August 9, 2017 at 3:32 pm #\nSpeaking as one of the people on the Commission, we had all the Ford comments available to us before anyone made any decisions. I know many of the 20 Commissioners read every one of the 400+ comments before making up their own individual minds.\nSpeaking personally, some of the comments were better informed than others. Petitions, in particular, are a dubious reflection of public opinion, because nobody has any idea how they were generated. To me, the fact that the vote was unanimous points to the quality of the work that the City has done in creating the Ford site plan.\nInteresting that a member of the Planning Commission considers the voice of the people as dubious. I respectively disagree.\n\u201cThe voice of the people\u201d is an interesting concept that I have written and thought about many times. Who gets a voice? How is that voice expressed and gathered and represented? What kinds of people are we talking about? Are we talking about wealthy people? People that own property? People that speak English? etc etc. I am proud of the work that the Commission has been doing to more accurately reflect the actual population of Saint Paul. The vast majority of the new Commissioners, for example, are people of color. I am one of the few renters on the Commission, for example. These are just a few of the things that we should be thinking about when we do public engagement.\nIn my 15 years of public engagement experience those who resist change are often the loudest and show up at hearings. The folks who think, hey, that\u2019s a cool idea or I would like that in my neighborhood, often don\u2019t take the time to show up at hearings or make comments.\nTom Goldstein August 8, 2017 at 11:39 pm #\nMy point is that no matter what your perspective on SOSPN, the housing code would have allowed for a teardown. It was only because of clause insisted upon by Macalester when the property was sold that there was any leverage with the buyer. Why did Macalester include that clause? Probably because somebody at the college\u2013perhaps smarter than you\u2013recognized that maintaining the historic character of a neighborhood was an important value for a city built around sustainable neighborhoods.\nDensity has its place, though density for density\u2019s sake doesn\u2019t create neighborhoods\u2013it just crowds a lot of people together who may have no interest whatsoever in who lives around them\u2013just as long as there\u2019s a brew pub, coffee shop, and bike lane nearby, right?\nSure, millions of historic homes were built in the 20th century, but you\u2019re treating it as one big inventory when it\u2019s just as important where the remaining homes are located as how many of them exist. They aren\u2019t monuments to a bygone era, but living, breathing structures that will outlive you and I if we don\u2019t treat them with disdain the way you seem to. Tearing down a bunch of historic homes so we can turn Tangletown into Dinkytown is not my idea of a positive step forward in Saint Paul.\nThere was nothing noble about the intent of the buyers of the Princeton Ave property; they saw a chance to convert a lot into two properties and hopefully realize a nice payday for their retirement. It is one thing for someone to put vacant lots back into service for housing, or tear down an abandoned property that is beyond saving for the same purpose. In fact, there are two vacant lots that have sat across the street from my house in the Midway for nearly twenty years that I\u2019d love to see converted into single family homes.\nBut for you to see nothing of value in a historic home because it\u2019s just part of some kind of inventory that is disposable is the exact mentality that led to all the foolish urban renewal in the 1950s and 1960s that wiped out so much historic architecture that we now just read about in books. And for what? A bunch of concrete obsolescence that makes American planners look like short-sighted idiots.\nKeep writing your fables. Just don\u2019t pretend you\u2019re an expert on urban planning because you\u2019re capable of being clever.\nMike Sonn August 9, 2017 at 7:10 am #\nMac probably had a right-of-first-refusal because they owned the property before and sold it to an employee and wanted to keep that option open for future employees. I doubt it went any deeper than that.\nAnd your condescending tone is so off-putting that I have a hard time imaging what a Goldstein administration would look like and how it would do our city/region any good even if I did agree with your policy positions.\nYep. But the ROFR was not legally effective, so even less important.\nAdam Miller August 9, 2017 at 9:24 am #\nYour idea of history is ahistorical. The gradual intensification of city land use is very much how history went.\nThe foolish urban renewal of the \u201950s and \u201960s was not at all the same thing. It was tearing down for its own sake.\nBut sure, neighborhoods aren\u2019t made up of things that people like (those darned brewpubs, bike lanes and coffee shops). It\u2019s just the structures that already exist that really matter. Uh huh.\nBill Lindeke August 9, 2017 at 10:27 am #\nThis is a pretty condescending attitude toward different kinds of social life. Like saying \u201ckids today\u2026\u201d and pointing to smart phones or something.\nSo what \u201ccreates neighborhoods\u201d? Walking, sidewalks, bike lanes, caf\u00e9s\u2026 those are a good start.\nWhat doesn\u2019t create a neighborhood? My easy answer is people sitting in traffic and honking at each other. To my mind, solo driving is the most socially destructive urban pattern we have in our cities, and has done more to undermine \u201cneighborhoods\u201d than any other social change we\u2019ve made in the last few generations. All the things you list in your comment here are far more conducive to basic human interaction \u2014 and therefore community \u2014 than folks sitting in their car by themselves, futilely getting angry about the world around them.\nKatie August 9, 2017 at 12:32 pm #\nNot weighing in on the larger controversy, but Macalester bought the property in 1970 as part of the High Winds Fund and its efforts to keep professors living near the college. It sold the house to Professor West in 1972 as part of its effort to buy homes in Tangletown and around Macalester and encourage professors and other faculty members to live in them and energize the neighborhood in the midst of white flight to the suburbs. My understanding is that these properties were sold at a very low cost by Mac in the first place and the right of first refusal ensured they could pass them on to new folks and faculty if they became available again.\nPretty close to accurate. Some dates may be slightly off and there were covenants put on the properties to keep them out of hands of landlords, but the general idea is spot on!! Tangletown would probably be controlled by landlords renting to students if HWF had not stabilized homeownership during white flight era. Thanks Katie!\nKatie August 9, 2017 at 2:10 pm #\nNo prob! I got the dates from a Mac Weekly article from a while back so they could be off by a little. \ud83d\ude42\nTom Goldstein August 9, 2017 at 2:22 pm #\nI found the whole tone of the article to be arrogant, from the headline of \u201cA Tale of Zoning Manipulation in Saint Paul\u2019s Tangletown\u201d to lines like \u201canother invisible wall being built in Saint Paul to protect the wealth of a small group of private homeowners cleverly using taxpayer dime\u201d and \u201cberating District Councils, City Council, and the Mayor. This year they hosted a Mayoral Candidate Forum where they scowled and growled\u201d and \u201cgive entrenched, well-to-do constituents power over property they don\u2019t own, to exclude the kinds of people they do not approve of,\u201d etc.\nI understand that the author of an opinion piece is entitled to certain \u201cpoetic license,\u201d but the use of this kind of language to impugn the motives of people who don\u2019t at all fit the condescending assessments made of them is unacceptable. Since sarcasm seems to be the coin of the realm when those wearing the sustainability hat go after those who disagree with them about teardowns or what makes for a good neighborhood, I was making some broad generalizations in response to underscore that point.\nMost teardowns that occur in Ward 3 are out-of-town developers buying up affordable bungalows and replacing them with out-of-character McMansions that tower over the surrounding homes. If Mr. Basgen was really concerned about what practices are doing the most harm in excluding people from being able to live in more affluent neighborhoods, that should have been the focus of his one-sided piece. Instead, he takes some cheap shots at people who weren\u2019t willing to allow developers to exploit their community.\nI\u2019m sorry if running for mayor somehow disqualifies me from using sarcasm to make a point, but this is an issue I\u2019ve worked on for several years and during that time I found no one involved in the effort doing so with the goal of excluding people from the neighborhood\u2013other than unscrupulous investors and developers looking to make a buck at the expense of everyone else.\nBut since I am running for mayor and apparently some people did not appreciate my tone, I apologize and want to clarify that I very much appreciate the many brew pubs and coffee shops that have sprouted in Saint Paul and fully support the entrepreneurs who have taken the risk to make them happen.\nI also appreciate the efforts to make Saint Paul a much more walkable city than it is and to make getting around on a bicycle far easier than it has been historically\u2013so long as the implementation of those goals is not done in the insular fashion that I\u2019ve witnessed the past several years. But that\u2019s somewhat off-topic to this discussion, so that\u2019s a fight we can have another time. (insert smiley face here.)\nIf you have time, send us your \u201cvoter guide\u201d Q&A so we can post it. I\u2019d love to hear more about your approach to density, walkability, etc. I think you\u2019re the last mayoral candidate outstanding\u2026 not including Tim Holden.\nCleveland Avenue Bike User August 9, 2017 at 2:49 pm #\nBecause mayoral candidate Goldstein just made it sound like he supports the implementation of bike infrastructure in Saint Paul, I am just leaving this link to Mr. Goldstein\u2019s FB post here and quote of text therein for people to consider, as they wish.\n\u201cTom Goldstein for Saint Paul\nOne of the surprising things I\u2019ve learned in my doorknocking of the neighborhoods around St. Thomas University the past several months is the widespread opposition to the proposed alignment of Cleveland Ave as a north-south route for the St. Paul Bike Plan.\nAnd it\u2019s not anger from \u201ccrotchety old people\u201d or the anti-bicycling crowd, though there is some of that. Rather, I\u2019m hearing frustration from moms and dads, avid cyclists, and all sorts of level-headed, common sense folks. Although the city can demonstrate a series of public meetings in 2011 and 2014 during a very short window of time, the anger level suggests that the public process was neither welcoming nor inclusive.\nI know some of my biking friends will disagree with that assessment, but some of them will also acknowledge that Cleveland Avenue is not a route they would use because the street is just too narrow. I agree.\nI\u2019m sure those who have been waiting for these routes to be completed see no reason for further delay. Maybe so. But the hallmark of good government is that you do the work on the ground to build support, not simply push through a solution because \u201cthat\u2019s the way it is\u2013we\u2019re tired of waiting.\u201d\nPlease turn out on Wednesday, October 28th, from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. to share your thoughts and concerns at the city-sponsored Open House. And let\u2019s put the brakes on this plan until we have an alignment that really does reflect the best path forward.\u201d\nNot sure why \u201cCleveland Avenue Bike User\u201d feels the need to post anonymously, but I appreciate him linking to my FB comment about the Cleveland Ave bike lanes made in 2015. I think it\u2019s completely consistent with what I said here about wanting to make St. Paul a much more bike-friendly place but that the implementation of that plan must include far greater public input and engagement than what has taken place in the past. Thanks again for sharing on my behalf that post.\nThat\u2019s a particularly strange thing to say with reference to the Cleveland bike lane, that got lots of public input as part of the plan and then lots more as people brought up late objections to its implementation.\nAlso, hindsight should surely tell us that the outcome of that late input was pretty atrocious \u2013 spending a lot of money that was supposed to go to pedestrian and bike facility improvements on two completely unneeded parking bays.\nMoreover the lanes are there now, get used and none of the terrible predictions of doom seem to have come about.\nIf you ask me (and yes I realize you didn\u2019t), a lesson of Cleveland Avenue is that perhaps people who seek to be community leaders should seek to tamp down unfounded concerns rather than magnify them.\nTom Goldstein August 10, 2017 at 1:24 pm #\nI think leadership is about listening to neighborhood concerns and trying to respond to them.\nAs I noted in my original FB post, I was somewhat blindsided by the resistance to the bike lanes and had no idea it was an issue until I started knocking on people\u2019s doors in July 2015. Ignoring those concerns when people at door after door were bringing up the issue would have been arrogant and irresponsible.\nI\u2019m not going to rehash that entire discussion other than to note, as I said then, that concerns were not being expressed from one particular group of people but across the spectrum, including bike enthusiasts. To push ahead with a plan at that point and \u201ctamp down unfounded concerns\u201d is not in my view leadership, but the opposite.\nFrom my view, a \u201cwe know better than you\u201d approach to governing is exactly why we have so much friction around teardowns, parking meters, bike lanes, the Ford Plant, etc.,instead of building consensus. Some want to frame it as one group being enlightened about what progress looks like and the other opposed to change, but I don\u2019t find that simplistic view to be accurate.\nYou\u2019ve described communication, not leadership. (Not that communication isn\u2019t really important!)\nLeadership requires judgment and the fortitude to be able to say, \u201cI hear your concerns but I think they are misplaced.\u201d\nAs we\u2019ve seen, the concerns about Cleveland Ave were misplaced.\nAdam, you represent one point of view. On what basis would I have concluded that those concerns were misplaced? Bicyclists to this day tell me they do not like riding on Cleveland Avenue between Grand Avenue and Cleveland. I think in certain circles people clearly feel that bike lanes on Cleveland are a great idea, but that doesn\u2019t necessarily represent the prevailing view. Show me the data on bike use of Cleveland and I might be persuaded.\nI met between Grand Avenue and Randolph.\nI meant between Grand Avenue and Randolph. Can\u2019t seem to type at the moment.\nThe \u201cconcern\u201d that cost the most \u2013 in actual dollars \u2013 was parking. Because of it, we got two expensive parking bays. They are almost always empty. Thus concerns about parking were unfounded, as we knew from looking at parking demand at the time.\nIt\u2019s just disingenuous to pretend that a meaningful amount of concern was from people who bike who thought it was too narrow. But even if it wasn\u2019t, those people still have the option of biking elsewhere. The lanes don\u2019t harm them at all.\nMeanwhile, the other day I road behind a dad with two little kids following behind him on that stretch (between Grand and Randolph) and I\u2019ve never ridden through there without seeing other people doing the same. I don\u2019t have numbers, but I do have eyes and whenever I\u2019m over there I see a people using it. Hopefully the city will do (or has done?) actual counts to back that up.\nIt\u2019s not at all clear to me that you understand that you hear disproportionately from people who agree with you or that talking to people who don\u2019t like it is not at all a way to measure how many people do.\nTom Basgen August 10, 2017 at 8:04 pm #\nI\u2019m sorry if I came off as Arrogant. The tone I was attempting to strike was Fury. To have some finger-wagging, condescending, perennial, Boomer candidate impugn my motives only compounds that emotion, but I\u2019m happy to elucidate the roots of the anger for you.\nI sit in at a lot of the same community meetings you do, but we view from different angles. I\u2019m younger, a mechanic, a renter, I own a car but ride my bike most of the time for transportation because of [[grocery list of benefits]]. I\u2019ve been to enough meetings to find the trend line, when public comment starts, for the most part those who stand to speak are much older than I and vilify me for things that I\u2019m not doing, they\u2019re things I just.. am.\n\u201cCyclists slow traffic and don\u2019t pay their fair share.\u201d False. \u201cRenter\u2019s are transients who don\u2019t care about the neighborhood.\u201d False. I cannot even ballpark how many times I\u2019ve heard that same refrain from how many different people.\nThey other parts of myself that get impugned are harder to quote the opposition because you have to innuendo distaste for the not wealthy and the young. It absolutely sucks to be excoriated for something about yourself that just IS. You probably know that particular lesson better than I do, but still you scurry to curry favor from the parts of our community that trade on that kinda of bologna.\nIt\u2019s galling to be constantly treated like I don\u2019t have skin in the game. I LITERALLY have skin in the game. I\u2019ll show you my scarred up hand (courtesy of a hit and run Toyota Forerunner) the next time I see you. I had the house I was renting for four years sold out from under me by a Plymouth landlord who read a PiPress article about a hot housing market in town. So my motives are pretty simple: I want to go to places without being chewed on by Toyota Forerunners, and I want to live inside my home.\nNow I\u2019ve read enough books and got enough of that good book learning that I know when my neighbors, who struggle to count their blessings despite all the local accountants, make up their own nebulous rules about beauty, and they come with an implied veto attached, as the guy they constantly vilify I\u2019m probably gonna be the one who suffers the negative externalities of those rules. So yeah, I\u2019m gonna go ahead and take my cheap shots before y\u2019all raise the rent and they\u2019re not that cheap anymore.\nColon hyphen end parentheses. \ud83d\ude42\nTom\u2019s right that the couple who was planning to tear down the Princeton house were not doing it for noble purposes.\nBut, it is WRONG to assume the ROFR created any leverage. It didn\u2019t because it had no legal effect. I will tell you why in person, but not on a public comment board.\nHow do I know this? I researched it at the time of the proposed tear down. I lived this history.\nThe house was saved because the couple, now in the middle of a firestorm of public acrimony, began to realize that getting out of the deal was a good option and maybe, the best option if they could \u201cbe made whole\u201d. So, two people at Macalester College delicately negotiated over several months a way to get them and the contractor out of the deal. The real history is not so simple or easy. It\u2019s not true that the ROFR was the leverage.\nAnd the people who bought the house and now live there are lovely and we should really stop relitigating this.\nPerhaps someday, if they are allowed to do so, they will respectfully build on the adjacent lot and add density; which is a future issue related to the premise of the article. Should someone owning a double lot in Tangletown be allowed to build on the adjacent lot? Reasonable people can disagree. I find myself just on the side of leaving it to the existing forces already at work: zoning, district councils, neighbors, etc. And Tangletown already has a lot of resources and knowledge that other n\u2019hoods don\u2019t have. Adding a conservation district seems like addressing a First World problem of little import, when there are so many other more important issues we face.\nAdam Miller August 9, 2017 at 2:12 pm #\n\u201cShould someone owning a double lot in Tangletown be allowed to build on the adjacent lot? Reasonable people can disagree.\u201d\nCan they? As you say, there\u2019s zoning and planning approval and whatnot (which is probably excessive too, but whatever), but barring that, how is it reasonable for anyone other than the owner to argue that a home can\u2019t be built on an open lot?\nPrivate property rights are the primary basis for being able to do what you wish with your property, which is why I am against a conservation district that would further limit pp rights, such as the right to build on an adjacent lot.\nA reasonable argument against my position might go something like this: having more space between a limited number of properties in a n\u2019hood adds more variety of options, so we should consider and value that rare circumstance and weigh it accordingly.\nI don\u2019t think this point is very persuasive, but it is reasonable. If the point were balanced by an idea to change zoning at corner lots within a residential n\u2019hood (to support duplex, 4, 8, or 12 unit buildings) I would find the point more persuasive.\nCorrection. The ROFR was not legally effective. Two people at Macalester carefully negotiated a purchase from the owners intending to tear down 1721 in order to help the buyer get out from under the storm of criticism and then restored the house. Inside story not reflected by comments on this page.\nI wouldn\u2019t want to be renovating a house in an historic preservation district!\nI support appropriate density in Macalester Groveland & Highland. It\u2019s frustrating to see SOSPN extend their preservationist agenda to the Snelling rezoning study and in the Ford site. SFHs can co-exist with significantly higher density on major thoroughfares. Let\u2019s fight those battles!\nI like having more mixed-use density along Snelling. Saint Paul desperately needs that kind of housing and tax base boost.\nHamp Smith August 8, 2017 at 11:37 am #\nAs someone who lives in the area and also was an employee of the Minnesota Historical Society for 30+ years I would like to make a couple of points about this article. First, the director of the society, Stephen Elliot, had nothing to do with the proposed purchase. The person involved was an employee acting on her own and MHS was not involved with it, one way or the other. Second, the author\u2019s characterization of the neighborhood is off the mark. Not everyone here is wealthy, or even close. There are all shapes, sizes and styles of homes here (mine is under 2,000 sq. ft.) and much of the neighborhood concern is to protect that variety of housing. We have seen small bungalows replaced with hulking, suburban style homes that are built on speck and quickly sold. I am not against new housing stock but I don\u2019t want Mac Groveland to look like another piece of sprawl. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s too much to ask for reasonable lot/house footprint ratio. Not every new home needs to be a 3K sq. ft. $750,000 behemoth.\nStudents_T August 9, 2017 at 9:20 am #\nMod here. This is obviously a heated topic with a lot invested from both sides. We don\u2019t always need to agree, but we do need to be respectful. Assumption making and personal attacks (on both sides) only hinder discussion and distance people from the points trying to be made in the debate.\nFeel free to check out the our comments policy for some light reading (though I\u2019m sure everyone on here has..) https://streets.mn/about/comment-policy/\nMeg Arnosti August 13, 2017 at 12:37 pm #\nThe author has a distorted lens when it comes to interpreting the actions of neighbors in Tangletown and the motives behind Save Our St. Paul Neighborhoods.\nTeardowns are done to make a profit. Small houses are removed and larger, more expensive houses are built in their place. Some of these houses tower over their neighbors, blocking light, causing runoff. Teardowns also incur a great deal of waste. There is no requirement that homes be stripped of reusable or architectural materials. Teardowns have become rampant in Edina and in parts of Highland. Existing regulations are an open invitation for insensitive developers and wealthy buyers to push their suburban sensibilities into urban neighborhoods that so many have worked long and hard to build.\nThe Tangletown Conservation District has been proposed to try to combat the teardown trend. The goal of the district is to encourage people to continue to maintain older homes and to ensure that new construction be in keeping with the scale of the neighborhood. Tangletown has property values as low as $150,000, and has many renters which are important to the economic diversity of the neighborhood. A laissez faire approach to teardowns leads to the replacement of smaller, more affordable housing with larger, more expensive homes, decreasing the economic diversity of the residents.\nThe Dutch Colonial home at 1721 Princeton was never going to be renovated. Documents filed with the City at the time of the purchase agreement show that the house was to be torn down and two 4,000 square foot homes, a 2-car and a 3-car garage were to be built, taking up most of the lot. These proposed homes were not \u201cquaint.\u201d The developer used tactics such as turning off the heat in the middle of winter so that the pipes would freeze, in order to destroy the home beyond repair.\nSave Our St. Paul Neighborhoods had nothing to do with the house at 1721 Princeton. It is a city-wide effort to work on neighborhood issues and combat the teardown trend. There were 5 Mayoral Candidate Forums, ranging from the Hmong-American Partnership to the Midway Chamber of Commerce and the St. Paul Labor Federation. Only one focused on neighborhoods. There were four questions. 1. How mayors and the City of St. Paul can solicit more community input. 2. How to encourage home ownership in lower-income neighborhoods. 3. How to address the challenge of out-of-scale buildings. 4. How to strengthen district and community councils.\nPerhaps the author has a problem with people participating in a democracy. He describes working with the community council and the city council as \u201cberating.\u201d Fact-free ranting on the Internet is a more accurate description of the word. We would encourage the author to seek the input of the people he is writing about before launching another uninformed opinion piece.\nThanks, Meg, for writing this.",

Electron Microscopy is the only technique that can image proteins in their natural environment. Understanding the molecular geometry of membrane complexes is essential, if we want to understand a wide range of cellular functions, from cancer to the formation of new connections in the brain. First, we investigate the dynamics and structure of scaffolds that play a pivotal role in excitatory and inhibitory synapses. First described over 100 years ago, much has been learned about the general principles that underlie basic synapse function. However, untangling the structure of the complex intracellular protein interaction networks is an enormous challenge that has not noticeably advanced past the identification and basic functional characterization of the proteins that are involved. First we will focus on the synaptic scaffolding protein gephyrin, which is the major scaffolding protein organizing inhibitory synapses. Considering its crucial function in the inhibitory system, it is not surprising that Gephyrin has been identified in a wide range of mental diseases like autism or schizophrenia and a target for analgesic drugs. Second, we are interested in the glycine receptor, which is the binding partner for gephyrin. This protein is not a passive binding partner for gephyrin but is getting modulated upon binding and is modified by itself. A complex of this core unit of the excitatory synapse has been elusive and a structure would open up a window into the dynamics of synaptic scaffolds and their regulation in diseases. Apart from the wealth of information gained by visualizing the gephyrin:glycine receptor complex, glycine receptors and their function is currently a \u2018hot topic\u2019. Recent studies identified them as a possible target for pain management. Therefore we target the receptor structure in different conformations and a physiologically relevant stoichiometry for facilitate the design of novel drugs. Third, we just started collaborative work protein interacting with C kinase (PICK1), which is the major trafficking protein in the excitatory synapse. PICK1 is known to regulate a plethora of transmembrane proteins in and out of the synapse; from dopamine transporters to glutamate receptors. As such, PICK1 has evolved into a therapeutic target due to its role in virtually every major mental disease, like schizophrenia, drug addiction, epilepsy or Parkinson\u2019s Disease. Obtaining a structure of this interesting protein in the context of the membrane will help us to devise novel therapies for the debilitating diseases this proteins is involved in",

        "raw_content": "Credit: Bisma Jay.\nWhat is Diaspora?\nI have been an English student for such a long time that I often forget that the lingo I am familiar with may be unfamiliar to others outside my own circle. It was only when a friend pointedly asked me \u201cwhat the hell is diaspora?\u201d that the inaccessibility of all of my blog\u2019s content slapped me in the face.\nWell, diaspora by itself is a loaded and presumptuous term. Wikipedia would suggest that diaspora refers to dispersion, or scattering. Diaspora theorists, on the other hand, would point to concepts of exile, displacement and hybridity (all of which may appear to be foreign terms to a layman). I see diaspora as a space outside of one\u2019s homeland. It\u2019s a loaded term, because although I was born in India, I am a Canadian now. So, in a way, I have two homelands, India and Canada. There are many others who can put a claim onto more than just two \u201chomelands\u201d.\nIt can be argued that home is where the heart is, however clich\u00e9d that sounds. In the case of my blog, \u201cdiaspora\u201d is a paradox. It\u2019s a term to be deconstructed at leisure. Definitely not a term to be taken for granted. And since I have had more than one \u201chome\u201d and plan to have many more, I am hoping to have the \u201cdiaspora\u201d as my playground.\nWhy South Asian in the Diaspora?\nI never thought of myself as South Asian. That was before I moved to Canada and realized that I was a minority. The fastest growing visible minority in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), mind you. \u201cSouth Asian,\u201d in this case, is also a term to be deconstructed.\nOfficially speaking (in third person):\nSanchari Sur is a feminist/anti-racist/sex-positive/genderqueer Canadian who was born in Calcutta, India. Her work has been published in The Feminist Wire, Matrix Magazine, Toronto Lit Up\u2019s The Unpublished City anthology (BookThug, 2017), Arc Poetry Magazine, Humber Literary Review, and elsewhere. She is a 2018 Lambda Literary Fellow, PhD candidate in English at Wilfrid Laurier University, and the curator/host/co-founder of Balderdash Reading Series.\nI am a Canadian from Calcutta, India. I left India at the age of 9, and have been meandering in the diaspora since. Currently, I reside in Mississauga, Ontario.\nI also write. A lot. Have been since I was 9. I was out of practice for a long time, but in October of 2009, I had a sudden urge to get back in the game (To see a list of published short fiction and poetry, click here).\nI also picked up the photography bug in earnest during my four month stint in India at the beginning of 2012. So, don\u2019t be surprised if you stumble across the occasional photography post (To see a list of published photography, click here).\nI hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology and English from York University, a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certificate from University of Toronto, an English M.A. from McMaster University, and am now a doctoral candidate in English at Wilfrid Laurier University.\nMy research interests (for those who may be interested): Diaspora Literature and Theory, Post-Colonial South Asian Literature, CanLit, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Feminist Theory, Trauma Theory, Disability Theory, Trans Theory, Politics of Storytelling.\nThe Blog Manifesto:\nI solemnly promise that:\n*I shall post every month.*\n*I shall NOT write about my work or my co-workers.* Because it\u2019s evil. And tempting. And I could lose my job.\n*I shall NOT write about my mundane daily life.* Because that would be unfair to readers. And, totally clich\u00e9 too (take note, fellow newbie bloggers), unless of course, it has some direct relevance to the topic I am bent on exploring.\nAnd, finally, *I shall post interesting interviews or events that I conduct or cover.* Because who doesn\u2019t like to be famous for having rubbed shoulders with the famous?\nFollow me on Twitter @sanchari_sur for instant updates of my articles and blog posts, or drop me a line at sur [dot] sanchari [at] gmail [dot] com.\nI will take on suggestions/comments/feedback/criticism/praise(?) in unequal doses.\nFashion Blog (2014 \u2013 2015): FashUnFauxPas\nBalderdash Reading Series (Jan 2017 \u2013 present)\nThe Lady and the Beard (short story collection in progress)\nBlood Red Sky (novel in progress).",

We are all forced to wear masks in our everyday lives. This can be the result of wide range of familiar, political or societal pressures, ranging from fear from persecution to rejection from a social order with which we identify. This is the Grand Masquerade. A tribute to the mask and a recognition of its existence. Determining whether or not a mask should be worn can only happen once it has been identified. What is the reason for hiding this aspect of the self?\nThe title track Grand Masquerade mixes classical style strings, indie-rock guitar, with hiphop and electronic groove. So often individuals find it necessary to mask who they are from the world in attempts to fit in and conform to the norms of society, or pressures of an oppressive government or household. Grand Masquerade is both beautiful and powerful. A struggle of the self-grappling with the decision to live a life of masked conformity or defiant individualism.",

However, beginning last school year, we have all heard all about a new teacher who has quickly gained the reputation of being one of the best teachers at Centennial. Having the opportunity to speak to this person illuminated why he has garnered this reputation so quickly.\nFrom a young age, Mr. Nunez knew he had a calling to be a teacher and a coach, \u201cI have always had teachers that really influenced me and just made an impact which I thought was really awesome.\u201d Specifically, he mentioned another Centennial teacher that made this impact. \u201cI would have to say Mr. Kurtz, he really did teach me a lot and I really did look up to him the most.\u201d\n\u2014 Having passion for what you do will never let you down and I just believe that passion is what drives me and how I teach\nCoach Kurtz also had praise for his former student. \u201cZach is definitely one of the most hard-working guys I\u2019ve ever met, and he really does have great morals\u2026I also think he is great teacher and coach because he really does love all of his kids.\u201d Coach Kurtz saw in Mr. Nunez all the makings to becoming a great teacher while he was still a student. \u201cYou could tell he always pushed people to do their best which made me see that he could be a teacher.\u201d\nMr. Nunez brings his coaching methods into the classroom, which what makes such a difference because the energy level is always high, as it would be on the field of play.

        "raw_content": "Kukje Gallery |\u00a9 Sali Sasaki/Flickr\nSeoul / Art\nSeoul\u2019s 10 Best Contemporary Art Galleries: Top Independent Venues\nSeoul\u2019s pioneering and innovative spirit has influenced the city\u2019s art scene, which has grown exponentially in the last decade. With several art districts to explore, Seoul has something to offer to every kind of art lover. From Samcheong-dong, an area overflowing with galleries, to Hyoja-dong, home to the city\u2019s cutting-edge arts organizations, here are the ten best independent galleries in South Korea\u2019s capital.\nView from Namsan, Seoul, South Korea | \u00a9 yeowatzup/Flickr\nGallery Hyundai is the city\u2019s oldest art gallery. It was established in 1970, and is located just off Samcheong-ro, the heart of the Seoul art scene (appropriately dubbed \u2018gallery street\u2019). Over the course of its distinguished history, the gallery has hosted the work of established Korean artists, such as Park Soo Keun, Joong Seop Lee and Dai Won Lee, and expanded the Korean art market in the process. The gallery now puts its name to two spaces in Sagan-dong and one space in Gangnam, whilst also running the Dugahun Gallery (just behind the Gallery Hyundai New Space), which is an art space-cum-wine bar and restaurant housed in a traditional Korean hanok. Gallery Hyundai is also dedicated to the discovery of new talent through schemes such as its Window Gallery, which exhibits the work of local and international artists.\nGallery Hyundai 14 Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul 110-190 Korea,+82 2 2287 3500\nWith its main space also at the center of the Samcheong district, PKM Gallery is another big player on the city\u2019s cultural landscape. Founded in 2001 by Park Kyung Mee, who commissioned the Korean Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in the same year, PKM Gallery has developed a strong international stance, showing at art fairs such as Art Basel, Art HongKong and Art Fair Tokyo, and opening a second space in the Caochangdi art district of Beijing in 2006. The gallery\u2019s roster of artists is similarly international in outlook, with foreign artists Olafur Eliasson and Darren Almond represented alongside local names such as Park Chan Kyong and Cho Duck Hyun.\nPKM Gallery, 40, Samcheong-ro 7-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 734 9467 9\nPKM Gallery, Seoul | \u00a9 r\u00e9gine debatty/Flickr\nGallery FACTORY\nOn the other side of Geongbokgung Palace, Hyoja-dong is a historical area that is fast growing into a creative hub to rival Samcheong. This is where Gallery FACTORY, a small but punchy avant-garde space, has established itself as a steadfast presence on the city\u2019s advancing art scene. Originally founded as Factory Arts & Crafts by Bora Hong in 2002, the gallery narrowed its originally broad focus of presenting cutting-edge art when it moved to its current location and changed its name in 2005. Since then, it has worked hard to develop audience participation through workshops and talks, as well as engaging in art consultation, public art projects, publications and international exchange programs. This is a great place to discover the experimental work of up-and-coming artists based in Korea.\nGallery FACTORY, Jahamunro 10 gil 15, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 733 4883\nGallery Factory, Seoul, South Korea | \u00a9 Gallery FACTORY\nLeeahn Gallery is an influential Daegu-based institution, best known for its central role in developing the arts scene in the metropolitan city of Daegu and introducing internationally renowned artists to local audiences. The Seoul branch, a modern, sleek building designed by Suh Architects, opened in March 2013 to some controversy. Local residents were not keen on the Antony Gormley figure perched on the rooftop. One of the first shows at the Seoul space was an exhibition of the renowned conceptual painter David Salle, his first time exhibiting in the country. Leeahn Gallery\u2019s ambitious programming will no doubt continue to feature the world\u2019s major artists, further enriching and opening up Korea\u2019s cultural identity.\nLeeahn Gallery, 9 Jahamun-ro 12-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 730 2243\n\u00a9 Leeahn Gallery\nProject Space SARUBIA\nEstablished in 1999, Project Space SARUBIA is an alternative space for experimental art across the genres of fine art, architecture, music, dance and film. This non-profit gallery started its life in Insa-dong, in the former site of the SARUBIA Coffee Shop, which used to be an important artists\u2019 haunt. The gallery devotes itself to pioneering new concepts and practices, and incubating the talents of undiscovered artists, who are selected through an open application process. The basement setting of the gallery has a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, which is ideal for sampling Seoul\u2019s thriving alternative art scene and discovering the next big thing in Korean art.\nProject Space SARUBIA, 158-2 Changseong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 733 0440\n\u00a9 Project Space Sarubia\nLeeum \u2013 Samsung Museum of Art\nBuilding, Museum\nPerhaps the most powerful and undoubtedly the most famous private gallery in Seoul, Leeum is a must-visit for those interested in the history of Korean art. Directed by Hong Ra Hee, wife of Samsung chair Lee Kun Hee, Leeum is an international centre of Korean and world art with an incredibly rich collection of artworks. The museum\u2019s architecture, designed by celebrated architects Mario Botta, Jean Nouvel and Rem Koolhaas, reflects the collection\u2019s interplay between past and present. There are three distinct areas dedicated to Korean traditional art, international contemporary art, and special exhibitions. Leeum is known for its unmissable blockbuster events, presenting artists such as Anish Kapoor, Mark Rothko and influential multimedia artist Nam June Paik. It also uses innovative and interactive technologies to enhance exhibitions. This is the place to see Korea\u2019s cultural legacy, and its future.\nLeeum, Samsung Museum of Art, 60-16 Itaewon-ro 55-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 2014 6901\n60-16 Itaewon-ro 55-gil, Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu Seoul, 140-210, South Korea\n\u00a9 Leeum Samsung Museum of Art\nArtside Gallery is notable for its focus on contemporary Chinese art and artists. Established in 1999, Artside introduced artists such as Wang Guangi, Yue Minjun, Zhou Chunya, Zeng Fanzhi and Zeng Hao to Korean audiences. Since then, the gallery has taken on a leading role in the artistic exchange between Korea and China, and garnered international attention for hosting the first solo exhibition of artist Zhang Xiaogang in the country. In 2007, Artside opened a gallery space in Beijing, and in 2010 relocated its Seoul gallery to Hyoja-dong. Amongst this expansion, the gallery\u2019s vision remains intact \u2013 to present the best in Chinese and Asian avant-garde as a way to encourage understanding and creativity across Asian art.\nArtside Gallery, 33 Tongui-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 725 1020\n\u00a9 Artside Gallery\n\uc608\ud654\ub791, Seoul | \u00a9 Gallery Yeh\nGallery Yeh is an iconic landmark in the Gangnam district of Garosu, with its striking, award-winning modernist building. The gallery\u2019s prestigious reputation is similarly iconic. Established in 1978 and reopened in 1982, it is seen as the forerunner of the Gangnam art scene. Under its influence, the area has grown into a dynamic cultural center, nicknamed the Soho of Seoul, home to many regional festivals of culture. The gallery has also played a pivotal role in bridging the gap between Seoul and the wider art world, showcasing the work of world-renowned artists such as Raphael Soto and Alberto Giacometti, as well as representing Korean masters such as Pon Ung Ku, Ok Yeon Kwon and Hwan Ki Kim at international fairs around the world.\nGallery Yeh, 18 Apgujeong-ro 12-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 542 5543, +82 2 542 3624\n18 Apgujeong-ro 12-gil, Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu Seoul, 135-120, South Korea\n\u00a9 Gallery Yeh\nSongEun ArtSpace\nThe Cheongdam area of the affluent Gangnam district is fast developing into a cool and vibrant hub of galleries, high-end fashion and culture. In the heart of this, SongEun ArtSpace is an innovative gallery, founded in 2010 by the SongEun Art and Cultural Foundation. This large building houses three levels of exhibition space, a caf\u00e9-cum-restaurant, and a multifunctional event hall in the basement. Past exhibitions have included retrospectives of Tom Wesselmann and the Chapman Brothers, as well as solo exhibitions of Korean artists such as Sung Myung Chun and Sekyung Lee. The foundation also runs the SongEun ArtCube, in the SAMTAN office building, and the annual SongEun ArtAward, with the aim of supporting emerging Korean artists.\nSongEun ArtSpace, 6 Apgujeong-ro 75-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 3448 0100\nSongEun ArtCube, Samtan Bldg Lobby, 421 Yeongdong-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 3448 0100\n\u00a9 SongEun ArtSpace\nThe beautiful residential area of Pyeongchang, at the foot of Mount Bukhan, is home to some of the country\u2019s oldest and most influential galleries. Among them is Gana Art, a modern complex designed by celebrated architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte with the largest exhibition space in the country. Founded in 1983, Gana Art has presented over 400 exhibitions of Korean and international art over its long history, including prominent artists such as Pierre Alechinsky, Roy Lichtenstein and Joan Miro. The center continues to showcase a diverse range of art, as well as hosting performances and open-air concerts. Since 2001, the centre has also hosted the annual International Photo-Media Festival. The high quality of curation at Gana Art as well as varied and exciting group shows, means that this gallery is still a formidable presence on the Seoul art landscape.\nGana Art Seoul, 97 Pyeongchang-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea, +82 2 720 1020\n\u00a9 Gana Art Center",

        "raw_content": "Do you own a residential rental property or holiday home?\nIf the answer is yes, you may be interested to know that you\u2019re entitled to tax deductions, regardless of the age of the property. A tax depreciation schedule is a document detailing how much depreciation you can claim on your investment on an annual basis from when it was first available to rent.\nAt The Home Inspection Hub, we manage the process for you. After gathering some information from you about the property, we will liaise directly with the property manager on your behalf, arranging a time for an inspection. Once the data is collected, a qualified Quantity Surveyor who specialises in depreciation schedules will prepare your report. The following process will apply:\nContact The Hub for a quote\nComplete an Information Sheet\nThe Hub will arrange an inspection time with your property manager\nAn on-site inspection will take place\nA qualified Quantity Surveyor will complete your depreciation schedule\nA report will be emailed to you, along with a receipt\nWhy is a tax depreciation schedule with The Hub so important?\nA depreciation schedule will help reduce your tax and is one of the tax deductions you should be aware of as a property investor.\nOur contract Inspectors have the skills and experience to carry out the data collection inspection.\nWe can backdate a tax depreciation schedule by two years.\nIf you\u2019ve carried out renovation works that have cost more than $30,000, we can assist you with a second depreciation schedule to reflect the changes to your property.\nThe cost of your tax depreciation is 100% tax deductible.\nThe process at The Hub is simple and time-effective to ensure you get your schedule as quickly as possible. Once the inspection has taken place and the data is collected, the report will take approximately 3 business days to complete.\nPhone us on 1300 071 283 or click here to request a free online quote. We\u2019ll be ready to help you!\nWho can prepare a depreciation schedule?\nA registered Quantity Surveyor is qualified to estimate the historical construction cost of a building and process the claim to the ATO standard. It\u2019s important to note that an Accountant is not suitably qualified to estimate construction or renovation costs.\nHow long does a tax depreciation schedule last for?\nGenerally, a tax depreciation schedule will cover a full 40 year analysis of your tax entitlements. However, if you invest in a schedule and then renovate the property, you\u2019ll need to obtain another schedule in order to reflect the changes with the renovation.\nHow much depreciation will I receive?\nThis is a common question that we get asked by clients. Unfortunately, it\u2019s very difficult to estimate depreciation without viewing the property. Our best piece of advice is to invest in a tax depreciation schedule close to your settlement date. If the property is newly built, the greater the depreciation will be, mainly in the first ten years from settlement date. However, it\u2019s still worthwhile investing in a depreciation schedule for an older property as well.\nWhat if you renting out your own home?\nIf you renting out your own home, you are able to claim depreciation from the date the property was made available for rent.\nYou have a holiday rental property. Can you still get a tax depreciation schedule?\nIf you own a holiday rental, you\u2019re entitled to claim depreciation. This applies to the property and furniture, as well as linen, videos, electrical equipment, games, books and kitchen cutlery located within the home.",

One idea is that by making each chip one of a kind and unclonable, an application would become almost impossible to hack. The U.K.-based startup says it has introduced \u201cthe world's most advanced security product for IoT devices.\u201d The microprocessor-based solution uses quantum physics, combined with cryptography, all embedded in silicon, it explained in a press release last October. \u201cThe world's first quantum-driven secure chip (QDSC), on silicon, which, when combined with cryptographic APIs, provides highly scalable, integratable, easy-to-implement and seamless end-to-end security for any connected device,\u201d the company claims. The chips generate large quantities of unique cryptographic keys using quantum processes, Crypto Quantique explains. PATRICK NELSON READ MORE",

This sort of approach won support from Democrats and Republicans in the Senate, but the House Republicans walked away after insisting that the budget be balanced on the backs of seniors and the middle class.\n\u201cNow, faced with the \u2018my way or the highway,\u2019 short-term approach of the House Republicans, Senator Reid has put forward a responsible compromise that cuts spending in a way that protects critical investments and does not harm the economic recovery. All the cuts put forward in this approach were previously agreed to by both parties through the process led by the Vice President. Senator Reid\u2019s plan also reduces the deficit more than enough to meet the contrived dollar-for-dollar criteria called for by House Republicans, and, most importantly, it removes the cloud of a possible default from our economy through 2012. The plan would make a meaningful down payment in addressing our fiscal challenge, and we could continue to work together to build on it with a balanced approach to deficit reduction that includes additional spending reforms and closing tax loopholes for corporations, millionaires and billionaires.\n\u201dSenator Reid\u2019s plan is a reasonable approach that should receive the support of both parties, and we hope the House Republicans will agree to this plan so that America can avoid defaulting on our obligations for the first time in our history.

Those external events make a big difference in the deficit, and they are the major reason why deficits have increased faster in absolute terms during Obama\u2019s first two years that during the last two under Bush. (In a recession, tax revenues plunge, and government spending goes up \u2013 partly because of automatic programs like unemployment insurance, and partly in a deliberate attempt to keep the recession from getting worse.)\u2026.\n\u2026. the policy that did the most to magnify future deficits is the Bush-era tax cuts. You could argue that the stimulative effect of those cuts is worth it (\u201cdeficits don\u2019t matter\u201d etc). But you cannot logically argue that we absolutely must reduce deficits, but that we absolutely must also preserve every penny of those tax cuts.

That word in the title is a dirty word to many. It seems to put teabaggers and firebaggers in a suicidal rage and can make partisans of all stripes a wee bit queasy. And yet, compromise is at the heart of our system of government. All progressive progress since 1776 has come through a series of hard and often bitter compromises. To reject the very idea of compromise is to reject the idea that Government by the people, of the people and for the people is a good thing. Because there are a lot of us with many different views and ideas of how to move forward. Some of these ideas are good. Some bad. Quite a few are horrible. Some only improve when tested against other ideas. The best ideas are tested by compromise and improve over the years.\nOf course everything I just wrote is heresy if you view compromise as an evil in and of itself.\nThis is especially true if you\u2019ve narrowed your political world view to the lens of a favorite single issue (or two) and force all of your thinking and reactions through the force rigidity that their talking points demand. If that is how you view the world then the notion of compromise is simply vile. Now, some would argue that this view of compromise as the great evil is evenly distributed between the left and the right or between Democrats and Republicans. That is, of course, pure bullshit. Yes, the Left/Democrats have their Firebaggers, but these folks are a tiny grifter minority whose main function seems to be to lighten the wallets of the gullible. Most Democrats view compromise the way Teddy Kennedy viewed it \u2013 as the best way (and the only way) to get things done\u2026.\nThank you gobrooklyn\nTags: aggro, Barack, be, civil, knoller, Mark, Obama, President, schedule, Twitter\nMorning everyone, hope you\u2019re all doing well.\nI haven\u2019t had a chance to read all the comments the last few days, but having looked through a few \u2026. just a small request: please be civil to each other!\nI know this is a miserably tense time, but let\u2019s try to keep our heads and stay united through it all. That doesn\u2019t \u2013 needless to say \u2013 mean we won\u2019t disagree, sometimes passionately, on the issues currently being debated, but let\u2019s try to do so in a respectful way.\nAlso, please don\u2019t bring \u2018professional\u2019 left/GOP spin and lies here \u2013 as we all know, those two groups are united in their opposition to any form of compromise in these talks for the sole reason that they believe it would reduce the President\u2019s re-election chances. It\u2019s all about destroying Obama \u2013 if the American economy is trashed in the process, so be it. Honestly, we don\u2019t need their pitiful talking points repeated here, we know where to go if we want to read them.\nSo, when the President is up against that level of mindless hostility and opposition I think we should all just try to dig a little deeper, stay calm, wait to see what happens \u2013 and stay united. By all means disagree with each other, but try to be nice while doing it!\nTags: Barack, british, cable, ceiling, debt, english, gop, government, limit, minister, nutjobs, Obama, President, republican, republicans, right, uk, vince, wing\nThe Guardian: Vince Cable (UK Government Business Secretary) has launched an extraordinary attack on \u201crightwing nutters\u201d in America who are trying to block the raising of the US government\u2019s debt ceiling and who are, he said, a bigger threat to the world economy than problems in the eurozone.\n\u2026 He said: \u201cThe irony of the situation at the moment, with markets opening tomorrow morning, is that the biggest threat to the world financial system comes from a few rightwing nutters in the American Congress rather than the eurozone.\u201d\nNegotiations on raising the US government\u2019s debt limit above its current level of $14.3tn (\u00a38.7tn) collapsed in acrimony late on Friday over details of a package of spending cuts and tax rises that would help to pay for such a move.\nA visibly angry Barack Obama attacked the Republican speaker of the house, John Boehner, for refusing to return his phone calls and said he had been \u201cleft at the altar\u201d in trying to reach an agreement. Most experts agree that if the US were to default on its debt payments, stock and bond markets worldwide would plunge, threatening a new great recession. The deadline for agreement is just over a week away, on 2 August\u2026\u2026\nThanks Titti",

Earlier this month, the Korea-based airline had $500 flights to Manila, Philippines from a bunch US cities, including New York and Los Angeles. This time, flights start around $550 round-trip from Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and more. While all of these flights have a short layover, you can find flights as low as $500 if you don\u2019t mind a 10-hour layover in Korea. Nonetheless, Asiana is one of the best airlines to fly long-haul in economy, and it\u2019s quite easy to find an itinerary with very short layovers.\nTravel dates for this deal are quite flexible in March and April, although it appears that Friday and Saturdays flights are excluded across the board.\nAirline: Asiana\nRoute: JFK, LAX, ORD and more to SGN\nDates: March 2016 through April 2016\nPay With: American Express Premier Rewards Gold, Citi Prestige or Chase Sapphire Preferred\nSearch for flights:\nNew York (JFK) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) for $550 on Asiana:\nNew York (JFK) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) for $550 on Asiana.\nLos Angeles (LAX) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) for $550 on Asiana:\nChicago (ORD) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) for $550 on Asiana:\nChicago (ORD) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) for $550 on Asiana.",

        "raw_content": "Is a Reading Retreat the Next Yoga Retreat?\nIn the past couple years, a new kind of retreat has been popping up and it doesn\u2019t feature a spa or yoga, nor is it a creative writing getaway. Nope, it\u2019s a reading retreat and there\u2019s only one rule here: The reading room must be silent at all times. You don\u2019t even have to BYOB (bring your own book).\nPeople all around the world are turning to reading retreats as the next form of ultimate relaxation. Cressida Downing and Sara Noel started their own Reading Retreat in the United Kingdom and have had great success with book worms from all over the world. Visitors pay about $600 for a three-night stay in one of their cozy accommodations, including all meals, a published author at each stay and a tailored reading prescription although guests are allowed and encouraged to bring any book they\u2019d like.\nThe Reading Retreat is not like reading at home or going on vacation and reading in your hotel room. As one guest told the BBC: \u201cThis is about giving myself permission to prioritize my reading. If I stayed home, I\u2019d always be thinking that I should be doing other things \u2014 seeing friends, writing, cleaning, knitting.\u201d\nA 2014 study conducted in the UK reported that 41% of 25-39-year-olds were reading for pleasure less than they used to, and that nearly a quarter of adults in the UK hadn\u2019t read one book for pleasure in the previous year. Experts suggest that people are distracted by screens in the digital age \u2014 but don\u2019t fret, phones are allowed at the Reading Retreat, although the founders do encourage a digital detox and offer to confiscate phones and tablets upon arrival.\nAt the retreat, readers are encouraged to dive into their books whenever and wherever they like \u2014 even at the dinner table.\n\u201cReading is not a passive thing,\u201d Downing told the BBC. \u201cReading is about engaging and connecting. And reading, as scientists have discovered, does wonderful things for your brain and longevity and health so really, we\u2019re probably better for you than a spa.\u201d\nFeatured image by @andrewkuttler via Twenty20",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb The Magic Pill\nAfter the death of my mom in 2010, when I finally resolved myself that I needed to make changes in my lifestyle for my own good health, and the weight I\u2019d been carrying around for so many years finally began to come off \u2013 this time I believed (and still do) for good \u2013 I found myself getting the same question on nearly a daily basis: \u201cWhat diet are you on?\u201d Usually the person asking the question was an already thin and perky woman who would then inundate me with the details of her latest diet, or her quest to burn 1000 calories a day, or her meticulous calorie counting, or her struggle to take off six pounds (never 5, never 10 \u2013 always some odd single digit number between the two which was completely unfathomable to me who had always had two zeros between me and my \u201cideal weight\u201d for as long as I can remember).\nThe truth, though \u2013 and I\u2019ve said this before here, but it\u2019s worth saying again: there is no secret. Losing weight, especially as a woman, especially as a woman in my late 30s (and now at 40) is really hard work. It\u2019s a constant battle with my own self-control, a constant push against my desire to stay still and put off exercise for tomorrow (and tomorrow again, and the day after that\u2026). It\u2019s a mental head game that I play with myself from the moment I head down the stairs in the morning til the moment I head back up them at night \u2013 and sometimes even after that. There is no magic pill or powder, no magic diet, not even a magic bariatric surgery (because if you think learning to eat right is hard now, ask any post-bariatric surgery patient how it is eating with a figurative gun to their head), nothing that will beat getting your butt moving and learning to make healthy eating choices. I know that thousands of infomercials and lots of pharmaceutical companies would love us all to believe differently, but this is the cold, hard truth \u2013 to get to a healthy physical state takes hard work, possibly the hardest work most of us will ever do in our lives.\nAnd yet \u2013 when you are suddenly half of the person you once were, everyone wants answers. They want the magic pill.\nIn the past, on one of my yo-yo downward swings, I would tell people freely what diet I was on, what exciting new \u201csecret\u201d I had stumbled upon that suddenly had me dropping 20 or 30 pounds. But this time was different. Something in me understood that this time was different. That this time had to be private. It was almost as if I was afraid that by sharing my epiphany I would cheapen it\u2026and somehow lose the magic of it. Because the truth is the hard work I was putting in was something magical to me. I\u2019d never experienced freedom from my scale, never before seen my body do what it was able to do. I\u2019d always been the chubby kid, chosen last for every team sport, dreading P.E. days at school and tag on the playground because I was so physically unfit. But now I was running \u2013 albeit on a machine \u2013 for thirty, forty-five, sixty minutes a day. I was lifting weights and doing situps and planks and squats and dozens of other exercises that I used to watch people do on TV and think, I can\u2019t do that. One day I realized I could actually feel the muscles in my body as I moved, supple and graceful, and I knew I never wanted to lose that sensation of feeling every part of my body respond to whatever I asked of it.\nBut there was no easy way to explain any of that to someone looking for a quick dietary fix.\nBeyond the exercise, the harder thing to explain was my slow evolution toward better eating. Although I credit losing my mom with my finally waking up and realizing I needed to take my own health more seriously, the truth is that I had already evolved my dietary understanding quite a bit by that time. Shortly before my mother\u2019s death, I realized I really am a sugar addict, but more importantly, I realized I had sever my reliance on artificial sweeteners. I learned to like agave and stevia instead. A year previous I\u2019d virtually cut out all processed food, even learning to make my own bread. Before that I\u2019d educated myself on taking in whole grains rather than cutting out carbs all together (Atkins being another fad I had gone through on a yoyo swing). Prior to that (and after the Atkins phase) I\u2019d learned the value of healthy fats over unhealthy fats. So by the time I had my \u201cepiphany,\u201d I knew what to do. I just needed to make myself do it.\nI still struggle with all of it. Every single day. But learning to value what\u2019s in the food I eat, learning to understand how it effects me, learning to eat not on a daily I-must-only-eat-these-foods-and-stay-under-this-many-calories basis has helped me to keep the majority of the weight off and enjoy my life at the same time. If you\u2019re reading this now at 300, 400, 500 pounds and thinking, \u201cI don\u2019t have time to do that,\u201d or, \u201cI don\u2019t have the energy to do that,\u201d know that you do. And if you take that time, if you put that energy in now, it will pay off in the long run. If you\u2019re thinking, \u201cBut I don\u2019t know how to do that,\u201d then stick with me \u2013 I\u2019ll do what I can to help here, and better yet, if you call your doctor I\u2019m betting he or she will help, too. You will finally be on the road to Wellville. And as you take that first step, know this \u2013 you won\u2019t be traveling alone.\nTags: addict, bariatric, exercise, featured, fitness, good health, healthy eating, mental-health, size, weight loss\n\u2190 Te Quiero Taco Salad?\nArtichokes: More than a Veggie with a Pun-ny Name \u2192\nOne Comment on \u201cThe Magic Pill\u201d\n\ud83d\ude00 great",

        "raw_content": "Recently, while on an airplane trip I was distracted by the sound of a man opening up a candy bag. The loud crackling sound it made announced its presence to all around. The bag had no say in the issue but the outside forces were causing it to make noise. It contained something good that was going to be gotten at all costs. The sound let all of us know something good was in the bag and going to be enjoyed by that man.\nI actually began to reflect on that candy, or more so the bag, and relate that to our own lives. If we have been given the Spirit of God to reside in us, shouldn\u2019t our lives reflect that? I mean, it sure seems like we do a lot of grumbling about life, rather than communicating the awesome, life-changing, transformational power that is within us. How can we as Christians expect a world to embrace the God of the universe if we, His children, cannot even reflect that awesome power that is within us? Even worse, how can we expect people to come to Christ if we are silent about our relationship with Him, or our conversation is limited to grumbling about the affairs of the world?\nLet me put it this way, if we were facing a firing squad, and death was near certain, and somebody came along and volunteered to step into our place and take the penalty, what would you do first? Would you go outside the prison gate and be quiet as a church mouse? No, I don\u2019t think so! Rather, you would shout from the mountaintops, and the rooftops, and the street corners that you had been saved by the gracious behavior of the one who saved you. Unfortunately, we often behave as if we have duct tape over our mouths.\nThe Bible encourages us in Psalm 107:1-3. \u201cOh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.\u201d The Psalmist is saying, if grace has saved you then talk about it. If you have been redeemed from trouble, speak up. Tell someone!\nChrist paints the picture well in Luke 11:33. \u201cNo one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.\u201d To put it mildly, the purpose of saving you, or lighting your lamp, was not so you could keep it all to yourself, it was so you could pass it on. Let others see the light that is within you.\nIf you have been given life everlasting with God, and he has given you the gift of the Holy Spirit to be with you and within you, you should \u201ccrackle\u201d when the world is around you. Make a noise for the Lord. People should hear you and know you have something inside of you that they should want as well. We want them to ask, \u201cHey, what\u2019s that noise all about? That person must have something great inside of them!\u201d\nSo, if you have been redeemed, if you have been bought with a great price. Say so!\nLet the redeemed of the Lord, SAY SO!\nCategoriesMusings from a Shepherd's Pen TagsLuke 11:33, Psalm 107:1-3\nPrevious PostPrevious Autoimmune Disorder\nNext PostNext On the Sidelines",

        "raw_content": "Mixer Mania #23 \u2013 Word Play\nHave you ever wondered where some of our sayings for approval come from? Well, as we feature Peach Juice as this week\u2019s mixer, let\u2019s take a look at some of those sayings and delve into their origins:\nSometimes shortened to simply \u2018peachy\u2019, the term can often be used ironically, when things aren\u2019t going as well as originally hoped. Radio DJ Jim Hawthorne is credited with making the term popular and it was even used by Rizzo in the movie Grease.\nSaxophonist Lester Young is credited with first popularizing the word cool as slang. Nicknamed Prez, Young encapsulated the African-American jazz scene of the 1940\u2019s and the culture it inspired. The musician can also be recognized for coining the term \u2018bread\u2019 to mean money.\nMost often heard from the cast of Scooby Doo, groovy is also a jazz slang term from the 1920\u2019s, referring to the grooves in a vinyl record. It returned with a vengeance in the 1960\u2019s and became a big part of the hippie counter-culture of the time.\nWhile diabetics and those dieting try to avoid things that are sweet, for the exact same reasons, the word has become a slang term used by folks to describe something great. After all, we all love things that are sweet\u2026 some of us just can\u2019t have those things.\nAfter going through a couple incarnations, including being used by surfers in the 1970\u2019s to describe a dangerous wave, it was picked up by teens in the 1980\u2019s to describe something that was excellent. The same backstory explains the word \u2018Tubular\u2019, as well.\nMuch more than a Broadway play, wicked can now be used to describe everything from awful to amazing things. Apparently, the concept was born and bred in Boston, Massachusetts and now that I\u2019ve pointed that out, you can totally hear a New Englander saying it.\nLiterally meaning \u201csomething which inspires awe\u201d, with the word becoming more used as slang, it has lost some of its original significance. That said, it has brought to the world such enhanced terms as awesome sauce, awesomeness and awesometastic.\nOnce again, we go to the African-American jazz scene and their vernacular for this one. Meaning \u201cfashionably current\u201d, Wikipedia reminds us that what is hip is continuously changing. As Grampa Simpson once said: \u201cI used to be with it, but then they changed what \u2018it\u2019 was\u201d.\nMixer Mania #23: Shanghai Sunset\n1.5 oz Orange Vodka\nTop with Peach Juice\nPut most of the words together and this sounds like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles work. Of course, some honourable mentions go to terms like tight, sick and bad, which imply the opposite of their original meaning.\nThe Grenadine didn\u2019t show up as well as I\u2019m used, but perhaps that\u2019s because I went very light with it, not wanting the cocktail to become too sweet. The little fireball in the sky, courtesy of the Maraschino Cherry garnish, was still present, though.\nPosted in Mixer Mania\t| Tagged Awesome, Bad, cocktail, Cool, Etymology, Gnarly, grenadine, Groovy, Hip, lemon-lime soda, Maraschino Cherry, Mixer Mania, Orange Vodka, Peach Juice, Peachy Keen, Shanghai Sunset, Sick, Slang, Sweet, Tight, Tubular, Wicked\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "Book Review # 65: Tender is the Night\nPublisher: Arcturus Publishing Limited\nGenre: Romance, Classic\n\u201cThe French Riviera of the mid-1920s is the new playground for rich Americans, among them elegant heiress Nicole Warren and her husband, ambitious psychiatrist Dick Diver. The Divers\u2019 renowned hospitality brings celebrities and socialites flocking to their villa, but when a starlet called Rosemary Hoyt finds her way into their charmed circle, the consequences are devastating.\nScott Fitzgerald has developed quite the reputation as the master storyteller of the Jazz era. His magnum opus, The Great Gatsby, is one of today\u2019s most recognized titles. It was so popular it was so popular it was adapted in the big screen starring Hollywood \u2018s cr\u00e8me-ala-cr\u00e8me. The success he had with The Great Gatsby set him up for literary greatness. Unfortunately, this success casted a shadow over his other works, which were equally brilliant. One such work is Tender is the Night, one of the 20 books I chose to be part of My 2018 Top 20 Reading List.\nSet in 1920s, Tender is the Night relates the story of Dick Diver. While on vacation in the French Riviera, he met Rosemary Hoyt, a fledgling Hollywood actress, with whom he instantly fell for. But just like any love stories, theirs had stumbling blocks. Dick Diver is married to a socialite, Nicole Warren. Dick\u2019s affair exposed the rift between her and her husband, who have long been estranged with each other. Rosemary\u2019s presence made the marriage\u2019s past secrets to rise to the surface. Tender is the Night is the story of an illicit affair but is also the story of the author himself.\n\u201cActually that\u2019s my secret \u2014 I can\u2019t even talk about you to anybody because I don\u2019t want any more people to know how wonderful you are.\u201d ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender is the Night\nTender is the Night is F. Scott Fitzgerald\u2019s fourth and last novel, personally calling it as his best work, eclipsing the ever popular The Great Gatsby. In this work, Fitzgerald poured in every inspiration he could muster to concoct what is to be the work of his lifetime. Amongst his works, it is the most autobiographical and it mirrored several aspects of his personal life, especially his stormy relationship with his wife, Zelda. This personal touch gives the story a different complexion, making it a very interesting one.\nTo start with, the book is a complex read. The elements Fitzgerald worked with are very close to his heart and reading it with an objective eye could be a challenge. The dichotomy between the author\u2019s life and the book\u2019s story is obscured by the story\u2019s intricate details. The convergence of these two worlds make understanding the story a challenge. Thankfully, its rhythm and beat matched that of his previous works, The Great Gatsby and This Side of the Paradise. This assuaged my understanding and appreciation of the book.\nThe book is a toast of its time, portraying the high society lifestyle of the Jazz era. Fitzgerald wrote it in phases \u2013 starting with the glitz and glamour before transitioning to the darker facets of the period being depicted. Right there, Fitzgerald\u2019s mastery of his era shines through in his words. He has this virtual scale where he is able to find the perfect equilibrium in his stories. Entering a Fitzgerald narrative is like entering the domed area of the Titanic, full of bedazzling wonder.\nOne of the book\u2019s subtlest yet most important aspect is its take on morality. Fitzgerald depicted the unglamorous side of high society, hinged on marital affairs. On the other side, it also highlighted subjects on patient-doctor relationship, hypocrisy and substance abuse, particularly alcoholism. The convergence of such subjects makes the book an engaging read. Moreover, these dark themes were dealt with in a very offhanded manner, hence, it is not too preachy.\n\u201cLater she remembered all the hours of the afternoon as happy \u2014 one of those uneventful times that seem at the moment only a link between past and future pleasure, but turn out to have been the pleasure itself.\u201d ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender is the Night\nFitzgerald\u2019s personal touch made the story delve a lot on introspection. Through Dick Diver, Fitzgerald channeled his personal frustrations, his travesties and even his ideals, skewed or not. Dick\u2019s frustration stemmed from many sides \u2013 his failed love affair with Rosemary, for instance, and his inability to convince his wife to divorce him. All of these frustrations led to his unusual relationship with the bottle, something that F. Scott Fitzgerald knows a thing or two about.\nIn the book, Fitzgerald\u2019s writing shone bright. He made a very efficient machine that delivered a wonderful literary experience to readers. His writing matched his era but its timelessness makes his works last for years. It is very distinct and his voice is palpable over hundreds of pages he poured his heart to. In spite of his stormy personal life, Fitzgerald demonstrated what he is truly capable of as a writer by writing powerful and meaningful prose.\nAnd this extreme personality was most ostentatiously demonstrated in Tender is the Night. Dick Diver, although he has fallen to wicked means, is a relatable character because he is not the typical perfect character reads about in fictional books. His flaws and down trodden nature gives him a whiff of humanness. However, some might find Dick\u2019s flaws jarring. He is a character you would love to the but nevertheless fell sorry for because he mirrors the ordinary person\u2019s nature.\nNo read goes without any challenges, and Tender is the Night is no exception. First of all, it was a challenge getting the perspectives straight. The narrative jumped from one perspective to another, and at times it gets frustrating. The abrupt shifts impair one\u2019s understanding of the character. This led to a disjointed narrative. Moreover, although the primary characters were well developed, most of the secondary characters were sketchy.\n\u201cI don\u2019t ask you to love me always like this, but I ask you to remember. Somewhere inside me there\u2019ll always be the person I am to-night.\u201d ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender is the Night\nTender is the Night weaved an overwhelming sense of frustrations and regrets into the prose. On the contrary, it is because of these elements that it has a once in a lifetime book. The story, in the guise of a romance story, seemed simple enough but the curves and spins Fitzgerald made gave the story an altogether different flare. In the end, one can\u2019t help but pity Dick Diver because of his misfortune. His actions maybe abominable and capricious but in the end, he tried to mend his ways, and that is what is more important.\nRecommended for readers who like works about the Jazz Era, those who like F. Scott Fitzgerald\u2019s works, those who enjoy classical works, those who are into works that make them reflect into themselves, those who like reading works about the glamorous lives of the rich and those who like works that are autobiographical.\nNot recommended for Zelda/Nicole Warren, those who have a hard time dealing with their personal circumstances, those who dislike works about dark subjects or works with dark atmosphere, those who dislike books with multiple perspectives and those who are into pleasurable works.\n(Photo by Wikipedia)F. Scott Fitzgerald. Who have never heard of him? The immense popularity of his works made him a household name and his works are amongst studied and discussed.\nFrancis Scott Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1986 in Saint Paul, Minnesota. He spent his childhood in New York and West Virginia before going back to Minnesota when his father was fired from Procter & Gamble . When he was 15, he was sent to study at Newman School in New Jersey, where he graduated in 1913. He continued his studies at the Princeton University to hone his artistic abilities. While studying, he wrote for numerous magazines and literary outlets, all the while improving his skills.\nIn 1917, he dropped out from the university and joined the army. While he was stationed at Montgomery, Alabama, he med Zelda Sayre, whom he\u2019ll marry and sire one daughter with. His storied career is marred by his alcoholism, from which arose numerous health issues. In December 21, 1940, Fitzgerald passed away.\nIn 1920, Fitzgerald published his first novel, This Side of Paradise. This was later followed by The Beautiful and the Damned (1922) and perhaps his most popular work, The Great Gatsby (1925). His last complete work is Tender is the Night (1934). The Last Tycoon (1941) was unfinished when Fitzgerald died but was later published posthumously. Aside from novels, he also wrote novellas and short story collections.\nCategories: Bibliophile, Book ReviewsTags: 1001 Books You must Read Before You Die, 2018 Reading List, Bibliophile, Book, Book Blog, Book Blogger, Book Blogging, Book Feature, Book Goals, Book Quote, Book Quotes, Book Reader, Book Review, Book Reviewer, Book Thoughts, Bookish, Books, Bookworm, Classics, F.

        "title": "Sound | THINKING ON MUSIC",
        "raw_content": "Sound and Spirit\nMusic is considered the most spiritual of the arts. The designation refers equally to music\u2019s substance and impact. Music is revelation: it manifests in ethereal air. Music is boundless: it transcends physical constraints. Music is invisible: its essence cannot be seen. Music reaches inward: it communes with the inner life. Music conjures: it stirs vivid memories and associations. Music alters: it changes moods and frames of mind. These observations point to the music\u2019s immateriality. Although it abides by the laws of physics and follows a traceable line of causation, it somehow extends beyond them.\nMusic embodies the fundamental meaning of spirituality: \u201cof, relating to, or affecting the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things.\u201d Unlike the visual arts, which manipulate tangible matter, music lacks a physical presence. It is force without mass.\nThis is not to suggest supernaturalism, which is often confused with spirituality. The life of the spirit is not dependent upon an otherworldly plane. From a scientific perspective, everything\u2014including sound\u2014is part of the natural world. The separation of music from material existence is more perception than objective fact. Just as science has demystified the once-taken-for-granted duality of soul and body, the perceived disconnect between music and material reality would not pass scientific muster. Yet, insofar as art is expression and impression, the feeling of otherness is enough to sustain the mystery of music.\nMusical responses can be attributed to chemical and neurological mechanisms. For example, dopamine release is the primary inducement of musical \u201chighs.\u201d But, just as scientific explanations of why and how we come to believe in the supernatural do not prevent people from doing so, laboratory studies of music\u2019s effect on the brain do not compel us to pause, analyze, and dismiss musical-spiritual sensations as they occur. We are wired to feel and conceive of music the way we do.\nHow can these rational/scientific and non-rational/spiritual views be reconciled? One way is by appreciating music\u2019s ability to meet incorporeal needs distinct from the material necessities of food, shelter, clothing, possessions, and the like. The fact that music is a natural phenomenon (like everything else) does not make it any less spiritual. What music accomplishes more than the other arts is a sense of going outside the measurable world, even while being a part of it.\nThis entry was posted in music, perception, science, sound, spirituality and tagged Music, Perception, Science, Sound, spirituality on October 29, 2015 by jlfriedmann.\nSimulated Silence\nOur quietest surroundings are brimming with sound. The modern world is cluttered with humming freeways, droning light bulbs, vibrating appliances, buzzing electrical wires, and countless other incessant noises. These acoustic waves are so constant that we tend to block them out. But if we listen closely in a quiet bedroom or library, there they are (around 30 decibels worth). Likewise, remote habitats free of humanity\u2019s sonic stamp\u2014which are few and far between\u2014are home to a variety of natural sounds. Absolute silence is simply not a feature of our planet.\nThe foreignness of pure quiet is on full display at Orfield Laboratories in Minneapolis, a location certified by Guinness as the world\u2019s quietest place. The lab\u2019s anechoic (echo-free) chamber absorbs 99.9 percent of sound, with its mesh flooring, double-walls of concrete and steel, and lining of fiberglass acoustic wedges. Manufacturers use the chamber to gauge the volume of switches, triggers and other components of their products.\nFounder Steven Orfield challenges visitors to sit in the chamber with the lights off for as long as they can. Most give up before twenty minutes; no one has lasted longer than forty-five. Orfield himself struggles to endure beyond the half-hour mark. The reason for this is that the brain, so used to filtering out environmental sounds, turns inward. It starts picking up the pumping heart, pulsating lungs, digestive gurgles, and creaking joints. The effect is so disorienting that participants invariably tap out. Absolute silence disturbs absolutely.\nThe anechoic chamber proves that there is no escaping sound. Even when auditory stimuli are sucked from our surroundings, we have the hubbub within. Thus, the ordinary quiet we long for is not dead silence, but relative silence. It is the absence of grating, high-decibel, out-of-place and otherwise unwelcomed noises. Relative silence is highly coveted in part because it is rare: not only is the atmosphere filled with subtle rumblings, it is also host to noticeable sonic intrusions.\nOne way to create a gratifying impression of silence is by contrasting attention-grabbing sounds with sudden stillness. This is best accomplished with music. Minimally defined, music is the art of arranging sound and silence\u2014that is, tones and spaces between tones. Of course, the juxtaposition of structured sound and calculated quiet is more pronounced in some pieces than others, as the tempo and spirit of the music allows for longer or shorter rests.\nHowever, in almost all cases there is room to prolong the moment immediately following the music, thereby creating the perception of silence. Such potent pauses occur whenever audiences hold their applause after a piece concludes, and in ceremonial settings when there are breaks between song and spoken word. Whether the music ceases abruptly or gradually fades into nothingness, it sets the stage for a pleasing audible quiet rarely discerned in our day-to-day lives.\nThis entry was posted in listening, music, nature, perception, Silence and tagged Anechoic Chamber, Guinness World Records, Listening, Music, Nature, Noise Pollution, Orfield Laboratories, Silence, Sound, Steven Orfield on December 18, 2014 by jlfriedmann.\nNuminous Noises\nTheologians often treat music as a potent tool for fostering sacred awareness. Music\u2019s ethereal abstractness suggests a reality that is beyond the ability of words to describe. Of the resources available to humanity, musical sounds are the closest representation of the divine. To quote Joseph Addison, they are \u201call of heav\u2019n we have below.\u201d Yet, theologians are quick to remind us that music and theology are not the same. The absorbing impact and amorphous beyondness of music might hint at God\u2019s immanence and transcendence, but this effect is, at best, a useful metaphor.\nThis cautious approach is conspicuously absent in The Idea of the Holy (1917), Rudolf Otto\u2019s influential treatise on the phenomenology of religion. Giving preference to experience over analysis, Otto claims that supernatural encounters\u2014or numinous experiences\u2014are real events that stand apart from ordinary occurrences. Rationalizations and approximations are used to describe the ineffable event, sometimes giving rise to myths, rituals, and dogma. The experiential moment\u2014the thing itself\u2014becomes religion.\nOddly, Otto assesses the musical experience in an identical way. Music is first received as an all-consuming, supra-rational force. Only subsequently is it understood in emotional or other humanizing terms. In contrast to the visual arts, music is not representational or expressive of anything specific in the physical world. Rather, it is \u201cwholly other\u201d\u2014the same phrase Otto applies to spiritual communion.\nMoreover, Otto believes that numinous experiences, while separated from day-to-day activities, are not unreachable or even uncommon. All human beings have access to episodes of transcendence. Thus, the regularity with which music brings about spiritual sensations is not a trivialization of the numinous, but confirmation of its accessibility.\nThe blending of musical and spiritual language in Otto\u2019s treatise has its climax in the following passage: \u201cSuch is the effect in Music in the highest degree, for Music stands too high for any understanding to reach, and an all-mastering efficacy goes forth from it, of which, however, no man is able to give an account.\u201d Replace \u201cMusic\u201d with \u201cGod\u201d and the point becomes clear. (The capitalization of \u201cMusic\u201d further sharpens the effect.)\nIn a recent article, religious studies scholar Christopher I. Lehrich contends that Otto\u2019s treatment of music in The Idea of the Holy allows for a \u201cdisconcerting\u201d reformulation: \u201cSuppose that, instead of writing a book about numinous experience, Otto had chosen to write one about musical experience.\u201d Beyond merely discarding the theologian\u2019s preference to mark distinctions between music and theology, Otto essentially groups them together. Music is not simply a means for coming into holiness. Music is Holy.\nThis entry was posted in music, ritual, spirituality, theology and tagged Music, Numinous, religion, Rudolf Otto, Sound, spirituality, theology, Wholly Other on August 29, 2014 by jlfriedmann.",

        "raw_content": "The One Awful Thing You Have To Accept If You Want To Be In A Forever Relationship With Each Zodiac Sign\nBy Brianna Wiest, November 16th 2017\nhttp://tcat.tc/2hmGTD5\nEmily &\nThey will always be just a little bit better than you.\nAries don\u2019t just need to be right in the sense that they will relentlessly argue a point even if they are wrong\u2026 they will actually go out of their way to find a way to always be right about, well, anything. What this means practically is that they will consistently position themselves as just slightly above you. And if at any point they imagine you\u2019re catching up, they will go to great lengths to improve themselves to be wiser, wittier or more successful. Aries need to lead, and will often want you to follow.\nTheir standards will be as unpredictable as they are high.\nA lot of people have high standards, but very few have the kind of evolving standards that a Taurus has. It is not just that they expect the best, it is that their concept of what\u2019s \u201cbest\u201d is never the same for long, and you will end up feeling as though you are never quite enough for them. Even if they love you a lot, you will sense this silent desire that you become just a little bit better than you are.\nTheir egos will get the best of them.\nGeminis have so many incredible traits: they are loyal and loving and creative and passionate\u2026 but they are also easily influenced by their ego\u2019s desires. Boundaries can be hard for them, and often they will get angered that other people won\u2019t bend to meet their desires. They don\u2019t naturally intuit how other people will feel or react to their behaviors, and end up eating their words often.\nTheir unreasonable outbursts won\u2019t go away.\nThe worst part of being in a relationship with a Cancer is that they are very much prone to having fits of irrational emotion and can be impossible to level with when they are having an episode of sorts. You want to think that their overreaction to something benign was just an isolated incident, but it probably wasn\u2019t. You\u2019ll have to learn to just ride the wave until they are more settled, and not try to fight them when they\u2019re already upset. Sometimes, this can feel a little like parenting.\nThey will be allergic to criticism.\nA crucial part of a healthy relationship is the ability to fight with purpose. You need to be able to express to one another what you are really feeling, and how you need your partner to reconsider their actions or habits for the sake of your partnership. This will be distinctly difficult with a Leo. They will not take to criticisms well. They will only change if they see the point in changing\u2026 and your challenge will be trying to figure out a way to get them to do that.\nThey will overreact to anything.\nVirgos give off the air of being super chill and mellow, but that is only because they do a great job of concealing a lot of their emotions (which isn\u2019t healthy). All of that suppression will inevitably result in them becoming weirdly overreactive to random things, and getting super paranoid about what other people think of them or some other random irrational fear. You will have to understand that you can\u2019t really take a lot of their intense emotions seriously, you just have to wait for them to pass and be reassuring in the meantime.\nYou will never be quite good enough for them.\nLibras only hold one person to higher standards than they do themselves: their life partners. The lovers of the zodiac, Libras have an insane need for romance and beauty and they are constantly seeking a high. One place they will always want to get it from is their life partner, so you better be ready to give them excessive amounts of lovin\u2019 as much as they seem to want it.\nThey will always need a little more than you can give.\nScorpios are deep lovers, though that is usually lost in translation as their humor lets them brush off any semblance of real vulnerability. At their core, they need a lot of reassurance and approval to sustain them, and that is never as crucial as with their life partner. They will always want you to be making them feel like they are loved and appreciated, and that neediness can really become a burden at times, as they will always be trying to win over your affection (even if they already have it).\nThey will always seem to have one foot out the door.\nIt is not that Sagittarians cannot commit (of course they can, and do) but that they always seem to have their eyes on the \u201cnext big thing.\u201d They are always dreaming of a new trip, a new project, a new friendship, anything that keeps propelling them forward. Sags will often give you the feeling as though you are not quite good enough for them, even if they really do love you. They are adventurers by nature, and will have to keep moving to feel sustained.\nThey will be resistant to change.\nCapricorns are happiest when they are steady, when they are sure of what\u2019s going to happen and where they stand with you. Of course, that\u2019s not how real life works. Capricorns struggle most in relationships because they are strongly adverse to the unknown, and will often become an odd mix of annoyingly passive as well as overwhelmingly strong-headed. It is not a flattering combination, and one that you will have to learn to deal with over time.\nYou won\u2019t always come first.\nIt should be no surprise that when you commit to a life with an Aquarius, you know that you will not always be their #1 priority. It is not that they won\u2019t care about you at all, just that their interests will often shift to work or other friends or travel or really anything that piques their desires. You will be a part of an Aquarian\u2019s world, not the center of it. If you can\u2019t be okay with that, they aren\u2019t the partner for you.\nThey will trust their feelings too much.\nPisces are stereotyped as being emotional (and they are) but the root of that is not really an abundance of feeling as much as it is that they trust their feelings more than they should. It\u2019s normal to experience doubts in a relationship every once in a while, but a Pisces will take that very, very seriously and maybe act on it when they don\u2019t really mean it. You will have to learn to navigate the very confusing waters that a Pisces\u2019 mind is always trying to tread\u2026 and know that even when they are super saturated in their own BS, they will come out of it\u2026 eventually.\nThe Brutal Truth About What You Need To Do To Win Them Over, Based On Their Zodiac Sign\nHere\u2019s What You Need To Cut Out Of Your Life, Based On Your Zodiac Sign\nHere\u2019s Why You\u2019re Terrible At Relationships, Based On Your Zodiac Sign\nWhat You Need To Overcome In Order To Find Love, According To Your Zodiac Sign\nImage Credit: Emily Broadbank\nThe One Awful Thing You Have To Accept If You Want To Be In A Forever Relationship With Each Zodiac Sign is cataloged in Astrology, Astrology Catalog, Love & Sex, Zodiac",

        "raw_content": "8 Things You Should Know About Independent Women\nBy Lorin Ore, May 12th 2018\nhttps://tcat.tc/2rCmFHn\n1. We are content being alone. While we do want love and affection, we don\u2019t need a partner in order to be happy. We\u2019ve worked hard to become the women we are, and we\u2019d rather not rely on others to get what we want. There is an enormous difference in being selfish, and valuing yourself. No, we don\u2019t want to be alone forever, but this doesn\u2019t mean we are going to fill our days chasing after a relationship.\n2. We are self-sufficient and highly resourceful. We know how to perform an oil change, we\u2019ve had no choice but to learn to do these types of things on our own. We also know that the right person will have enough self-confidence to appreciate our independence. Just because we aren\u2019t needy or asking for your help doesn\u2019t mean we aren\u2019t interested.\n3. We\u2019re tired of being labeled as \u201cintimidating.\u201d The simple truth is this: we aren\u2019t afraid to speak up and call you out on your shit. Unfortunately, most people are not so fond of being \u201ccalled out,\u201d which also leads to being labeled as \u201cmean\u201d or \u201cbitchy.\u201d Sorry not sorry.\n4. We refuse to be an option and we won\u2019t play games. Honesty and commitment are requirements. We will not hesitate to walk away from a situation that is unhealthy and/or immature. We were fine before and we\u2019ll be fine after. Don\u2019t expect us to compromise our standards and put up with someone who treats us like garbage.\n5. We are said to come across as \u201ccold.\u201d However, just because we aren\u2019t super clingy doesn\u2019t make us \u201ccold.\u201d In fact, we\u2019re deeply emotional people who love hard. But, we have our own hobbies and interests, and we expect the same thing in a potential partner. We\u2019ve spent a lot of time learning to love ourselves, we want the same for you. Of course, we want to be loved, but we don\u2019t want you to lose yourself in the process.\n6. We don\u2019t have an \u201cattitude.\u201d Again, we value ourselves and believe that we are worth fighting for. If being driven and motivated is something that intimidates you, then maybe you\u2019re the problem.\n7. We do not place value on material things. It\u2019s not money that we\u2019re after, it\u2019s loyalty.\n8. We can be hard to love. We\u2019ve become so accustomed to doing everything ourselves and solving our own problems, sometimes we lose sight of the fact that it\u2019s okay to ask for help. We keep our guard up because it\u2019s our way of staying in control. We require patience, it takes time for us to let go of being the \u201ctough girl,\u201d because we\u2019re terrified of being hurt. However, we are worth it. Once we\u2019re in, we\u2019re all the way in, the level of passion and loyalty will surpass anything you\u2019ve ever experienced.\nYour Relationship Status Does Not Determine Your Value, But The World Needs to Stop Telling Us It Does\nThis Is What Happens When You\u2019re A Strong Woman Who Feels Incredibly Lonely Sometimes\n12 Things I Need My Future Husband To Know\nA Strong Man Is Not Intimidated By A Strong Woman, He Is Inspired\n32 Guys Confess The Secrets They\u2019d Never Want Their Girlfriend To Know\nInternational Women\u2019s Day Reminds Me To Be Proud Of Women EVERY Day\n8 Things You Should Know About Independent Women is cataloged in Heart Catalog, identities, Independent Women, Strong women",

If there is an unused portion of the Budget after the scheduled expiration of the Campaign Period, the Campaign Period will be extended until such Budget is consumed. With respect to any Renewal Campaign Period (as defined in Section 6(i)), the applicable Budget associated with that Campaign will renew for the same Budget amount that applied to the prior Campaign Period, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.\n(iii) Cycle Payment. \u201cCycle Payment\u201d refers to the aggregate recurring fees for each of the Campaign Cycles, such as the Budget.\n(iv) Campaign Set-Up Fee. \u201cCampaign Set-Up Fee\u201d refers to a one-time fee for the set-up of a Campaign, which can include, but is not limited to, the Publisher set up, keyword generation, proxy creation, creative services and other similar set-up requirements. With respect to Search Engine Marketing, the Campaign Set-Up Fee also includes a review of the Campaign within the first sixty (60) days of the Campaign.\n(v) One-time Product Fees: \u201cOne-time Product Fees,\u201d as set forth on the Order, refers to a one-time cost to purchase a Marketing Service.\nThriveHive reserves the right to change any of the foregoing fees at any time, provided that, such changes will not take effect until: (i) a new Order has been agreed between Advertiser and ThriveHive; or (ii) the renewal of an existing Order after implementation of the new fees.\n(b) No Pass-Through Obligations. Advertiser is not entitled to any credits, discounts, rebates, refunds or any other amounts provided to ThriveHive by a Publisher or any other third party.\n(c) Discount Credits. If ThriveHive offers any special promotions which provide Advertiser with discounts, credits or any other fee reduction incentives in connection with any Order (the \u201cDiscount Credits\u201d) and: (i) Advertiser terminates such Order (other than for cause under Subsection 6(d) below); or (ii) ThriveHive terminates such Order for cause under Subsection 6(d) below, then Advertiser will be required to repay to ThriveHive, within ten (10) days of such termination, the full amount of the Discount Credits used by Advertiser.\n(d) Refunds and Chargebacks. ThriveHive will not issue cash refunds for early cancellation of Marketing Services, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

Subject to Section 6 below, once an Order has been accepted by ThriveHive, Advertiser will be responsible for payment of all fees set forth therein, except as may otherwise be provided in Section 6(c). All payments due are in U.S. dollars and are exclusive of any sales, use or similar applicable taxes, which shall be the sole responsibility of Advertiser.\n(b) Method and Timing of Payment.\n(i) Method of Payment. Advertiser may pay for all amounts payable under this Agreement by: (A) credit card (the \u201cAdvertiser\u2019s Card\u201d); (or (B) receiving an invoice, at ThriveHive\u2019s sole discretion. If paying by credit card, Advertiser will be required to sign and comply with the applicable payment authorization forms. In the event Advertiser receives an invoice, all amounts will be due upon Advertiser\u2019s receipt of the invoice.\n(ii) Timing of Payment.\n(A) Timing. Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that all amounts owed must be paid in advance of each Campaign Cycle and that, in addition to being in breach of its contractual obligations, Advertiser\u2019s Campaign may be suspended or terminated if timely payment is not made. If Advertiser has authorized payment by Advertiser\u2019s Card, such authorization permits ThriveHive to recover any Discount Credits (as set forth above) in the authorized manner, and to process all payments for ongoing or additional services or products and any other amounts owed pursuant to an Order or this Agreement via such Advertiser\u2019s Card.\n(B) Initial Payment. Advertiser shall pay: (I) the Cycle Payment for the initial Campaign Cycle; and (II) if applicable, the Campaign Set-Up Fees, on or before the commencement of the Set-Up Period.\n(C) Subsequent Payments. All subsequent Cycle Payments will be made no later than three (3) days prior to the start of the applicable Campaign Cycle.\n(D) On-going Payments. In order to avoid any pauses in the Campaign associated with Marketing Services that have a Budget, Advertiser authorizes ThriveHive to cause payment to be made, via Advertiser\u2019s Card or other chosen method of payment, for the upcoming Campaign Period when seventy-five percent (75%) of the Budget for the current Campaign Period has been exhausted.\n(E) Payments for Other Products and Services. For all Marketing Services elected by Advertiser that do not include a Budget, Advertiser authorizes ThriveHive to cause payments to be made, via Advertiser\u2019s Card or other chosen method of payment, within seven (7) days prior to the expiration of the applicable Campaign Cycle.\n(c) Late Charge; Suspension of Marketing Services. Any amounts not paid by Advertiser when due shall be subject to a late charge equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Advertiser agrees to pay all costs of collection (including attorneys\u2019 fees and costs and all other legal and collection expenses) incurred by ThriveHive in collecting payments under the Order and/or this Agreement. In addition, ThriveHive may suspend the performance of Marketing Services in the event that any undisputed fees are overdue more than ten (10) days, shall not be obligated to resume such performance until the overdue fees have been paid and shall have no liability for such suspension.\n(a) Term. Subject to Section 3 above and Subsection 6(i) below, the term of this Agreement shall be the Campaign Period (as defined below) set forth on the applicable Order (the \u201cInitial Campaign Period\u201d), unless terminated sooner as provided herein, or extended by renewal. The Initial Campaign Period and any Renewal Campaign Period (as defined in Section 6(i)(A) below shall be collectively referred to herein as the \u201cCampaign Period\u201d.\n(b) Termination by ThriveHive. ThriveHive may terminate any Campaign, with or without cause, upon written or email notice.\n(c) Termination by Advertiser. Subject to Subsections 4(c), 6(f) and 6(h), Advertiser may terminate the Campaign during the Initial Campaign Period upon sixty (60) days prior written or email notice to ThriveHive in accordance with these terms. Such written notice must be received on the ThriveHive Cancellation Form, which can be accessed at https://thrivehive.com/legal/cancellation-notice/ No other means of termination by Advertiser will be valid. If the cancellation is received during the Initial Campaign Period, the Advertiser may still be subject to the Early Termination Payment outlined in Section 6(h).\n(d) Termination For Cause. Either party may terminate an Order on thirty (30) days prior written or email notice (the \u201cTermination Notice Period\u201d) if the other party is in material breach of its obligations under the Order and/or this Agreement and such breach has not been substantially cured by the end of the Termination Notice Period. Notice must be received on the ThriveHive Cancellation Form, which can be accessed at https://thrivehive.com/legal/cancellation-notice/ . No other means of termination by Advertiser will be valid. The Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that it will be responsible for any obligations accrued through the effective termination date.\n(e) Campaign Pauses. Advertiser may request a pause in a Campaign. However, it shall be in ThriveHive\u2019s sole discretion to determine if a Campaign pause is appropriate. If a Campaign is paused for more than thirty (30) consecutive days, Advertiser will have to pay an additional Campaign Set-Up Fee to restart the Campaign.\n(f) No Refunds. Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that it will not be entitled to any refunds of amounts already paid to ThriveHive, unless: (i) Advertiser terminates for cause under Subsection 6(d); or (ii) ThriveHive terminates under Subsection 6(b) above, in which case Advertiser shall only be entitled to a refund for the unearned portion of the then applicable Cycle Payment.\n(g) Effect of Termination; Survival. Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that due to the nature of the internet, certain information regarding Advertiser that will be posted on the internet as part of the Marketing Services, including, for instance, the Local Profile posted on third party directories, may continue to be available from the internet following termination of any of the Marketing Services and/or the Order. All provisions of this Agreement that by their sense or nature should survive termination of the Order (including, without limitation, all limits of liability, indemnity obligations, and confidentiality obligations) shall so survive. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event of any termination, Advertiser shall remain liable for any amounts due to ThriveHive as of the effective date of termination.\n(h) Early Termination Payment. If Advertiser terminates the Order and/or this Agreement, without cause, prior to the expiration of the Initial Campaign Period, any unpaid portion of the Monthly Fees set forth on the Order, shall become immediately due and payable (the \u201cEarly Termination Payment\u201d). The Early Termination Payment will not apply: (i) if this Agreement is terminated under Subsections 6(b) or 6(d) or (ii) during any Renewal Campaign Period that was automatically renewed (as defined below in Section 6(i)(A)).\n(i) Renewal.\n(A) Automatically Renewing Campaign Periods. As indicated on the Order, certain Marketing Services and Bundled Packages will automatically renew (a \u201cRenewal Campaign Period\u201d). The Initial Campaign Period for such Marketing Services and Bundled Packages shall automatically renew for additional periods of the same duration as the Initial Campaign Period, unless Advertiser provides sixty (60) days prior signed, written or email notice on the ThriveHive Cancellation Form, which can be accessed at https://thrivehive.com/legal/cancellation-notice/ . If the cancellation is received during the Initial Campaign Period, the Advertiser may still be subject to the Early Termination Payment outlined in Section 6(h). Only automatically renewed Campaign Periods are considered \u201cRenewal Campaign Periods\u201d for purposes of the exclusion from Section 6(h).\n(B) Other Campaign Period Renewals. Any Marketing Services that are not subject to automatic renewal under Section 6(i)(A) above will require execution of a new Order by Advertiser in order to renew. Any early termination of the Campaign Period for such Marketing Services will be subject to the Early Termination Payment outlined in Section 6(h).\nAdvertiser Data; ThriveHive Platform.\n(a) Advertiser Data.

        "raw_content": "Why It\u2019s Worth a Watch Wednesday \u2013 Chicago P.D.\nToday, I\u2019m jumping in with a show that could either a) fall in line with all the other police procedurals on TV, or b) stand out as the next Dick Wolf success\u2014Chicago P.D..\nCreated by Dick Wolf (Law & Order) and a spinoff series of Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D. will serve as yet another typical police procedural on television. Or will it?\nMy main question is this\u2014will Sergeant Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) be a good guy or a bad guy? While I did not watch the entire first season of Chicago Fire, I did watch enough to know that he was not a \u201cgood\u201d cop. The character did not hesitate to cross legal or ethical lines. And if he\u2019s anything like that on the new show, what in the world is his staff going to be like?\nAnd speaking of Jason Beghe, I\u2019ve had a crush on him since I was a little girl when he starred as the quarterback, Tom Yinessa, on HBO\u2019s 1st & Ten. Yes; my parents let me watch with them\u2014it was about football, after all! And most recently, I\u2019ve enjoyed his recurring character, Richard Bates, on Showtime\u2019s Californication where he plays an alcoholic/sometimes gay/sometimes straight man. His performances are fantastic. Needless to say, I gave Chicago P.D. a try just for him.\nBut let\u2019s talk about Voight right now\u2026 like I mentioned earlier, Voight was not a \u201cgood\u201d cop on Chicago Fire. Actually, he went to jail. However, in this new series, his character has negotiated some deal to get out of prison and land himself the supervisory position for the Intelligence Unit of the Chicago Police Department. We later learn this deal is for him to secretly report back to Internal Affairs\u2026 but will he? Will he be 100% honest with them? Probably not\u2026\nSo is he good or bad?\nWell, Voight instructs his staff to keep everything in-house\u2026 they tell him the truth, so he can lie for them. This isn\u2019t so strange. Anyone who has played sports has heard the saying \u201cwhat happens in the locker room, stays in the locker room.\u201d Same concept.\nThe Intelligence Unit is family, and to Voight, nothing is more important than family. Yet, sadly, his sordid past actually gets one of his officers killed in the first episode (in a round-about-way). Sorry for the spoiler.\nUltimately, Voight just operates under the mantra\u2014and expects his team to as well\u2014whatever it takes.\nDoes this make him bad? Naaa. I kinda like him and will continue to watch because of him. I want to see how many professional and ethical lines he and his team will cross, while maintaining characters that I like and am actually rooting for. There seems to be the \u201cright way\u201d and the \u201cVoight way\u201d of doing things. Sometimes \u201cVoight\u2019s way\u201d is the only way to get things done. I get that real cops shouldn\u2019t act this way, but this is TV and I like it.\nBut enough about just Voight\u2026\nChicago P.D. bounces back and forth between his unit and the officers who patrol the streets of Chicago. As a Law & Order fan, I can definitely tell this series is a Dick Wolf creation from the cinematography and style. And being a Chicago Fire spinoff, many of the characters have done and will do a crossover stint at one time or another (for those who love and need more of Taylor Kinney and Jesse Spencer). If I understand correctly, the series will actually do a full-blown crossover episode event with Chicago Fire and Law & Order: SVU. Guess I\u2019ll need to watch Chicago Fire that week.\nWhile I will and already have watched more of Chicago P.D. than I have Chicago Fire, I can\u2019t award the series with anything beyond a JFTV rating. I like it; I do. But I don\u2019t mind letting the episodes pile up on the DVR to watch when I have time. It\u2019s just like when I keep a bag of those greasy potato chips in the pantry, but only reach for them when I need a fix. After all, it is just another police procedural on TV today\u2026 just with a different kind of twist.\nWhat do you think? Do you watch Chicago P.D.? I\u2019d love to hear from you!\nCategoriesMore Television, Television, TV Reviews, Watch it? TagsChicago Fire spinoff, Chicago P.D., Dick Wolf, Jason Beghe, police procedural, TV Review of Chicago P.D.\n2 Replies to \u201cWhy It\u2019s Worth a Watch Wednesday \u2013 Chicago P.D.\u201d\nI\u2019m actually trying to cut down on my TV watching, so I probably won\u2019t add another police show. Hawaii Five-O and Criminal Minds are enough for me, I think. Oh, and Rizzoli & Isles when it comes back on \ud83d\ude42\nI love the series, and particularly Erin (Sophia Bush). Never watched Chicago Fire, so I don\u2019t know what Voight is supposed to have done, but so far I like him a lot better than the IA lady. Seems like she\u2019s blackmailing him for her own personal gain, and I hope he can turn the tables on her somehow. Not a fan of L & O, but I do like this series.\nPrevious PostPrevious New to TV \u2013 Winter 2014 (Part Four)\nNext PostNext Tasty Breakfast Recipe \u2013 Blueberry Croissant Puff",

Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) appeared on MSNBC\u2019s AM Joy with guest host, Washington Post reporter Jonathan Capehart, ahead of her 80th birthday on Wednesday.\n\u201cCongresswoman, your birthday is on Wednesday\u2026if you could be granted one birthday wish what would it be?\u201d asked Capehart.\n\u201cMy biggest birthday wish would be that we're able to get a leader of this country who represents us, who has the respect of all of our allies all over the world,\u201d Waters said. \u201cSomeone who has an appreciation for the Constitution. Someone that does not lie every morning when they get up with these tweets\u2026Someone ho not only respects women but all of the people., and instead of dividing us, would take leadership to bring us all together,\u201d responded Waters according to IJR.\n\u201cI would wish that we could remove him from office and go about getting the kind of president that we could all be proud of. If he is not impeached, if he cannot be impeached, 2020 is coming up and I believe that American people are going to do the right thing for our country stand up for what is right, and get rid of this man who is embarrassing us all\u201d Waters said in closing.\nIn a statement urging her supporters to confront Trump supporters and administration members in the streets Waters said: \"Let's make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere. We've got to get the children connected to their parents,\" reported CNN, in response to Trump's zero tolerance immigration policy that separated illegal immigrant families at the border.",

        "raw_content": "Archive for the \u2018 ~BRISTOL RI~ \u2019 Category\nKing Phillips Chair \u2013 Bristol\nKing Phillips Chair/Miery Swamp\nApproximate distance hiked: Less than 1 mile on two separate walks.\nA notable site more so for its history than its hiking, King Phillips Chair is well worth the visit if you are in the area. There are some restrictions though as the \u201cchair\u201d and nearby spring in Miery Swamp are not publicly open unless you receive permission. Both the \u201cchair\u201d and the spring are on property owned by Brown University on Mount Hope. This area in the 1600\u2019s was part of the Wampanoag/Pokanoket tribes lands known as Sowams. The \u201cchair\u201d, at the base of the largest outcrop of white granite in Rhode Island served as the seat of Metacom (known by the English colonists as King Phillip). It is said that Metacom held meetings here and the top of the rock served as a lookout. From 1675 to 1678 a war between the Native Americans and English colonists was fought in this area. The King Phillips War was by far the bloodiest war in American History (per population) as nearly 10 percent of the population were killed on both sides. Some of the fiercest fighting occurred in the nearby towns. King Phillip met his end in Miery Swamp a mere half mile southwest of King Phillips Chair on August 12, 1676. A monument, placed by the Rhode Island Historical Society in 1877, now stands by the spring on the site of his death. Nearby Mount Hope Farm abuts the woods and to gain access to King Phillips Chair and Miery Swamp you must contact the office at 401-254-1745 for permits and parking passes. Groups of more than 10 will require insurance (per Brown University) to visit the site.\nThe Base of the Large Outcrop Served as King Phillips Chair\nWaypoyset Preserve \u2013 Bristol\nNarrows Road, Bristol, RI\nAt the Bristol Narrows is a little known preserve named Waypoyset. The long narrow property is heavily wooded and currently offers only a few trails. There is potential for a longer trail network. On this visit, birds were in abundance in the tall shrubs and thickets. Cardinals, blue jays, and nuthatches were seen. The shrubs were filled with berries and the remnants of milkweed pods. A visit to the trickling stream was also made. A local informed me that the other side of the stream is private property. There is parking down by the water at the end of Narrows Road. Be sure to park above the high tide line.\nWoodland Path \u2013 Bristol\nWoodland Path \u2013 Colt State Park\nColt Drive, Bristol, RI\nAt the extreme southern end of Colt State Park there is an area of woods. There is a network of trails here, some part of the park wide \u201cPath to Health\u201d system. The trails are faintly blazed and easy to follow. There is a couple small ponds and several vernal pools here. At the time of this hike, the frogs were very active. To add distance to this easy and short hike follow any of the parks paved walking paths or walk to the nearby Coggeshall Farm. There is a trail map sign near the parking area.\nPath in the wooded part of Colt State Park.\nBristol Waterfront \u2013 Bristol\nThames Street, Bristol, RI\nBristol is most famously known for its Independence Day celebrations. The town is host to the longest running 4th of July parade in the United States which was first celebrated in 1785, a mere nine years after the colonies declared their independence from Great Britain. Patriotism runs deep in this town and in the weeks leading up to Independence Day it really shows. Bristol is situated on the east side of Narragansett Bay and its harbor has always played an integral part of the town. Downtown Bristol is home to several historical building dating back to the 1700\u2019s as well as many \u201cMom and Pop\u201d shops. Bristol is a thriving waterfront town and today\u2019s walk covers both the waterfront and some of the towns historical district. Starting at Independence Park, at the southern terminus of the East Bay Bike Path, I first followed Thames Street in a southerly direction, then turned left onto Franklin Street making my way slightly uphill to Hope Street. Along the way I passed the first of, literally, a town full of shops. I then turned right onto Hope Street. This stretch is lined with several historic houses, lantern streetlights, and large old trees. Most of the houses have plaques on them citing the dates they were built. The first on the right bears a date of 1730 and ahead just before the bank is a massive ginkgo tree. You will also notice the red, white, and blue line in the middle of the street. The line is painted throughout the town along the parade route. In the weeks leading up to Independence Day this stretch is overtaken with flags and banners. Just before Bradford Street on the left is the Andrew School. It is the first of several school buildings along the route of the walk. The Colt School is next on the left just after Bradford Street. Built in the early 1900\u2019s by a prominent Bristol resident, it was donated to the town as a school. Also on the left is Linden Place, a large mansion built in 1810. On the right is the Rogers Free Library housed in a building built in 1877. Just before turning left onto State Street, I came to the Bradford-Diman-Norris House. Built in 1792, it replaced a structure that was burned by the British during the American Revolution. Following State Street, I passed several more houses that were built in the early 1800\u2019s. I then crossed High Street, passing the Walley School on the right. Continuing east I made my way to Wood Street opposite St. Mary\u2019s Church. Along the way on the right is the Bristol Common. On the left I would pass the Bristol Train of Artillery and another old school building which is currently home to the towns School Department. At Wood Street I then turned right and started to follow the path into the Common that leads to the Gazebo. I continued pass the gazebo toward the back of the brick building at the corner of High Street and Church Street. This building is the Byfield School. The school is now used by several artists and their studios including the aptly named Liberty Looks studio. Note, while walking through the common, the row of buildings along High Street. They are the back of the Walley School, the First Baptist Church, the former Bristol County Courthouse, and the Byfield School. I then crossed High Street heading west along Church Street. A fire station is to the left at the corner and the rest of the street is lined with more historical houses. About mid way down the street on the right is a chapel that is set back behind a house. Just before the intersection of Hope Street on the right is the St. Michaels Garden. Across the street is St. Michaels Church, built in 1861, it is the fourth church on this site. The first was also burned by the British during the American Revolution. Turning right onto Hope Street, I then came to a large stone building on the right. This is the Burnside Hall built in 1883. It was used as the Town Hall until 1969 and today it is a visitors center. You can stop in and get all the information you need from its friendly staff. I then continued along Hope Street, passing the Belvedere Hotel on the left, and then turned left onto State Street heading back to the waterfront. Crossing Thames Street, I followed the brick walkway to a restaurant along the water. Just to the north of the restaurant is the beginning of the public boardwalk that follows the edge of the harbor. The boardwalk passes a marina, a condominium building and a couple of restaurants before ending at Independence Park. From here I crossed the park back to parking area, stopping briefly at a plaque explaining Bristol\u2019s role in the American Revolution. You could easily add more mileage to this walk by zigzagging the towns blocks. Just about every street in this area has a structure of historical significance. This walk just scratches the surface of the towns history.\nTrail map can be found at: Bristol Waterfront.\nBoardwalk Along Bristol\u2019s Waterfront\nBlithewold \u2013 Bristol\nBlithewold Mansion, Gardens, & Arboretum\nFerry Road, Bristol, RI\nI stop at Blithewold quite often to stroll around the gardens for ideas and to take in the solitude it has to offer. Another of my hobbies is gardening. Blithewold has a wide variety of flowers to see at all times of the year. More so a walk than a hike, you still can get a mile or more nonetheless along stone and dirt paths. I remember the first time coming here was for a wedding. I also stop by quite often during daffodil season. The display is quite impressive. Both Blithewold and Parsons are well worth checking out for their daffodils. Today I was joined by my mother for this walk. We started at the Visitors Center by the parking lot. After paying the entry fee we went through the rose garden and found our way toward the front of the mansion. We followed the path away from the mansion toward the road passing a Giant Sequoia and Japanese Cedar along the way. We then circled around toward the summer house. We then passed an area of hydrangeas while we followed a path back towards the mansion. When we reached the North Garden we then followed another path back into the wooded area passing a water fountain. We eventually reached a grove of bamboo. After walking through the grove we stumbled upon a garden of flowers of all assortments. There were several black eyed susans and coneflowers attracting several bees and butterflies. We then followed the northern property line along a dirt road to the bay. The views are quite impressive here. We then wandered into the rock and water gardens. The small ponds here were covered with lily pads and the highlights of the garden are a Japanese Red Maple on a small island as well as a stone bridge that crosses a section of the pond. We then followed a path that passed several trees of interest including a snowbell, plane, and a walnut to name a few before passing into an archway of boxwood. This path eventually met with the path with the water fountain. We then made our way back to the North Garden. At this point we had walked just under a mile. We then explored the mansion before returning to the car.\nMap of the paths and gardens can be found at: Blithewold.\nPerry Farm \u2013 Bristol\nPerry-Tavares Farm\nMetacom Avenue, Bristol, RI\nBetween the first visit here in the summer of 2014 and the last, in January of 2017, the Bristol Conservation Commission and their many volunteers have made great improvements to this property. The nearly two mile system is blazed with blue, white, and yellow trails. There are several access points to the property including the Elmwood Drive entrance which features a footbridge over a small stream. The main entrance, opposite Fatima Drive, along Metacom Avenue offers a small parking area. The blue blazed trail runs from Metacom Avenue westerly to the power line easement and the yellow loop trail. Along this stretch you will pass a couple stone walls, vernal pools, and some old towering trees. The yellow trail loops through the midsection of the property passing areas of birch trees and small outcrops of pudding-stone. The white blazed trail at the northern end of the property weaves along the edge of a meadow and through areas of thickets that are a haven for birds. The property is especially suited for photography of flowers and birds. On the two (of likely several more) visits I encountered rabbits, toads, hawks, robins, blue jays, woodpeckers, finches as well as an abundance of wildflowers including milkweed, black raspberries, and grapes attracting not only the birds but butterflies, bees, and dragonflies. Deer, owls, and turkey have also been seen on this property.\nTrail map can be found at: Perry Tavares Farm\nWinter Tree at Perry Farm Meadow",

        "raw_content": "Master Ed sentenced to 20 years for keeping teenage sex slave\nMissouri man gets 20 years for keeping young woman as sex slave:\nEdward Bagley Sr.\nLast week 46-year-old Edward Bagley Sr. of Lebanon, Missouri was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for keeping a woman captive as his sex slave for years. You can check the archives to see my previous posts on this but I\u2019ll try to sum up the low points of what Bagley did to his victim.\nFirst he took the mentally challenged woman in as a 16-year-old girl, would trade her to his friends for things like cigarettes and steaks, would electrocute and torture her and broadcast it on the internet, made her sign what she thought was a legally binding document making her Bagley\u2019s slave and lastly he had her vagina sewn shut. Those are just the ones I can pull off the top of my head. For those of you new to the story, yes Bagley is/was married and his wife was in on it as well.\nAs I\u2019ve mentioned previously a lot of people who claim to be from the BDSM community think that this was nothing more than a master/slave, or dom/sub if you will, relationship. It was not. It was slavery at its basest form using coercion and violence against his victim. Most BDSM people who I know in real life say that they have never heard of any kind of consensual BDSM relationship like this and are shocked that any BDSM practitioners would try to say so.\nAs far as I\u2019m concerned 20 years is nowhere near enough the sentence Bagley should have got. He\u2019s nothing more than a modern-day slave trader. He got the 20 year sentence after entering into a plea deal back in January.\nAnd if you are a BDSM practitioner great for you but this isn\u2019t a government indictment on your lifestyle. It\u2019s an indictment on one white trash hillbilly scumbag who took advantage of a 16-year-old girl for his own sadistic purposes. If you think anything else you may want to unzip the mouth hole on your gimp mask because your brain isn\u2019t getting enough oxygen.\nThis entry was posted in Crime, Trench Report and tagged Edward Bagley Sr., false imprisonment, human trafficking, Lebanon, Missouri, sex slave, Torture. Bookmark the permalink.\n\u2018Master Ed\u2019 pleads guilty in Lebanon, MO sex slave case\nFinal Suspect Pleads Guilty in Sex Slave Case; Faces 20 Years:\nAs alluded to yesterday 45-year-old Edward Bagley Sr.of Lebanon, Missouri has pleaded guilty to federal charges of trafficking, torturing and raping a woman he kept in his home for several years. Just a slight recap of some of the torture this woman had to endure at the hands of this white trash hillbilly.\nThe victim was tortured over a six-year period by strangulation, suffocation, breast and vaginal penetration with skewers, and electrical voltage.\nAnd that\u2019s only the tip of the iceberg. You can read more about her ordeal in the archives.\nWhile it\u2019s good to see that all involved are being sent to prison Bagley is only facing 20 years thanks to his plea deal. That means he could get less than 20 years. The torture of this woman is almost Dr. Mengele like proportions and all he\u2019ll get at the most is 20 years? This is not justice unless there some kind of Marquis De Sade room in federal prisons that I\u2019m unaware of. With any luck his fellow inmates will return unto him what he gave to that poor woman tenfold.\nGuilty plea expected in Lebanon, MO sex slave case\nGuilty plea expected in \u2018horrific\u2019 sex torture case:\nTomorrow 45-year-old Edward Bagley Sr.is expected to plead guilty to the sexual torture and trafficking of woman that he and his wife allegedly kept as a sex slave.\nBagley met the girl when she was a 16-year-old runaway and convinced her to stay at his trailer. Bagley would sexually abuse the woman and either broadcast it over the web or charge his friends to watch. He even lent her out to some of his cronies in exchange for things like steaks, cigarettes and cash. He had his name tattooed on her and made her sign what she thought was a legally binding contract making her his property. As one form of punishment Bagley allegedly had her vagina sewn shut. This went on for a number of years. The only reason that she was rescued is because she had a heart attack after being electrocuted by Bagley during one of their torture sessions.\nSince the story broke there have been some in the BDSM community who have been saying that there is nothing illegal going on here. One journalist even compared this situation to 50 Shades of Grey. Here\u2019s the thing with that though, in most BDSM relationships it\u2019s not only between two people and those people usually respect each other and the relationship is consensual. Trading your partner out for steaks and smokes is usually not part of the deal. What happened here is nothing short of the torture of a poor unfortunate woman. She was not a willing participant. She was coerced into thinking that she had no other choice. Prison for Bagley is only a modicum of justice in this case.\nNo word on what Bagley\u2019s possible sentence is but unless it includes the words torture, electrocution, rape and slavery it won\u2019t be anywhere near what this cowardly and depraved piece of pig excrement deserves.\n\u2018Journalist\u2019 compares sexual torture and slavery case to 50 Shades of Grey\nIs Missouri couple\u2019s \u201950 Shades of Grey\u2019 lifestyle a crime?:\nDiana Reese is a freelance journalist in Kansas City. The Washington Post carried her article that compares the trashy mom porn novel 50 Shades of Grey to a case in Missouri where a mentally challenged woman was held captive for 7 years.\nAs far as I can tell, because I haven\u2019t read the book, 50 Shades of Grey is about a man who introduces a naive young woman into the world of BDSM. From what actual practitioners of BDSM have told me it\u2019s just a Harlequin romance novel that made it big. But I\u2019m not here to trash the book. I\u2019m here to call Ms. Reese\u2019s article not only irresponsible journalism but trying to get ink (or pixels) by using something that\u2019s popular to trivialize the plight of a woman who was tortured and traded for 7 years.\nI\u2019ve posted about the story of Edward Bagley Sr. and his wife Marilyn of Lebanon, Missouri before. They allegedly took in a mentally challenged 16-year-old runaway in 2002. Bagley convinced her to come live with him and even made her sign a contract that said he owned her which she thought was legally binding. He is believed to have raped and tortured the woman for years over webacam and with private shows for some of his buddies. He had the girl tattooed with his name to show dominance over her and that she was his property. Investigators say that Bagley also traded her out to some of his friends for money, clothes, cigarettes and steaks. Did I mention at one point she allegedly had her vagina sewn shut as a form of punishment?\nThis is not BDSM in any sense of the term. This is just pure sadism in its basest sense, torture for the sake of torture.\nHow dare anyone try to compare the torture this woman endured from the ages of 16 to 23 as a \u2018relationship\u2019.\nUpdates on Lebanon, MO sex slave case\n4th man changes plea in Missouri sex slave case:\nUpdate: Fourth Man Pleads Guilty in Ozarks Sex Slavery Case:\nI\u2019ve previously posted about this story here and here. The heart of the story is that Edward Bagley Sr. of Lebanon, Missouri allegedly kept a mentally challenged woman as a sex slave for 7 years between 2002 and 2009. He first met the woman when she was a 16-year-old runaway. He is accused of torturing her which included sewing her vagina shut and anally electrocuting her. Bagley would also \u2018rent\u2019 the woman out to other men for such things as steaks and cigarettes.\nThe last update I posted said that two of Bagley\u2019s customers, Dennis Henry and James Noel had pleaded guilty to the charges against them. Since that time two more customers, Bradley Cook and Michael Stokes, have also pleaded guilty.\nStokes not only had repeated sex with the victim and tortured her but he also promoted her at strip clubs and took her to California for a porno mag shoot. He only received five years for his guilty plea. Considering he admitted to electrocuting the victim anally and vaginally he should have gotten way more than that.\nCook got 20 years in his plea deal admitting that he engaged in sex and torture with the victim.\nHenry got 15 years in his plea deal for committing sex trafficking by force.\nNoel also only got 5 years for torturing the victim.\nBagley and his wife Marilyn have yet to go to trial which is scheduled for February 15th. If they don\u2019t get life sentences then there is no justice for victims.\nAnd to all you BDSM aficionados out there this is not an indictment on your lifestyle choice. We are talking about a woman who was manipulated into believing that she was legally someone\u2019s slave. She was not a willing participant, there was no \u2018safe word\u2019. She was the captive of a sadist and that\u2019s all there is to it.\nUPDATE 7/11/2012: The trial for the Bagleys has been pushed back until February 2013.\nThis entry was posted in Crime, Trench Report and tagged Bradley Cook, Dennis Henry, Edward Bagley Sr., false imprisonment, human trafficking, James Noel, Lebanon, Michael Stokes, Missouri, sex slave, Torture.

Back then in Lebanon, Missouri five men were indicted for holding a developmentally challenged girl captive and sexually abusing and torturing her.\nThose \u2018men\u2019 are\u2026\nEdward Bagley, Sr., 43, and Michael Stokes, 62, both of Lebanon, Mo., Dennis Henry, 50, of Wheatland, Mo., James Noel, 44, of Springfield, Mo., and Bradley Cook, 31, of St. Louis, Mo.\nHere\u2019s the summary of the situation from my original post\u2026\nBagley is said to be the ring leader as investigators say he was the one who held the girl hostage from 2002 to 2009. Bagley originally met the girl, only identified as VF, when she was a 16-year-old runaway. He convinced her to come live with him as a sex slave even forcing her to sign a contract, that she believed was legally binding, into becoming his sex slave. Bagley is said to have raped and tortured the woman both live and on webcam for years. He is also said to have advertised his little shows online as well. No word on what website he used to advertise but I have my suspicions. He lured the girl into his pathetic life by promising to make her a model which is a common trick among online predators. He is even said to have had the woman tattooed branding her as his property. If she complained or tried to leave Bagley would only increase the torture. Outside of these shows Bagley is said to have forced her to work in strip clubs too keeping all her money. Investigators were tipped off when Bagley took the woman to the hospital after torturing her so bad that she went into cardiac arrest.\nGot that so far? Now for his alleged accomplices\u2026\nStokes gave Bagley steaks, cigarettes, coats, clothing, lighters and cash. Henry and Stokes paid approximately $2,900 for Bagley to transport FV to California in December 2006 for a photo shoot in which FV performed sexual acts. Henry accompanied Bagley on the trip. Stokes paid Bagley $300 for a torture session, and also gave him money to build a home-made device to sexually torture FV. Cook gave Bradley a hard drive with sadomasochism and torture videos downloaded from the Internet.\nNow a new indictment has been handed down against Bagley\u2019s wife, 45-year-old Marilyn Bagley.\nMarilyn Bagley, 45, along with her husband Edward Bagley, Sr., also known as \u201cMaster Ed,\u201d 43, and Michael Stokes, also known as \u201cThe Rodent,\u201d 62, all of Lebanon, and Bradley Cook, also known as \u201cPutHer2GoodUse,\u201d 32, of St. Louis, were charged in an 18-count superseding indictment returned by a grand jury in Kansas City, Mo. The superseding indictment replaces an indictment handed up last Sept. 8. Edward Bagley, Stokes and Cook remain in federal custody.\nNice names. I still want to know how in the blue hell a married couple come up with a scheme like this to torture a young woman like this. How is that conversation even brought up? \u201cHey honey, you know what would make our marriage even better? If we got a mentally challenged woman that we could hold captive and torture.\u201d\nSpeaking of the torture\u2026\nEdward Bagley allegedly beat, whipped, flogged, suffocated, choked, shocked, caned, skewered, drowned, mutilated, hung and caged the woman to coerce her to become a sex slave.\nThe men had locked the victim in a cage, and had her vagina sewn shut as a form of punishment.\nA lot of the comments I received on my original post were from people who were involved in BDSM relationships who thought that the woman was not a victim and that prosecutors were making a big deal out of nothing.\nTell me, does this sound like a willing participant to you?\nShe did not know how to think for herself. She also took long periods of time to think and comprehend something and had a difficult time keeping up with conversations. Henry saw that the woman did not know how to eat with a knife and a fork, and he taught her how to use silverware.\nNot to mention the whole vagina sewing thing.\nHenry and Noel have already pleaded guilty.\nThere is no way in hell you can say that this woman was a willing participant. This is not your normal BDSM relationship. This crossed over into nothing but pure rape and torture. No one is here to attack your lifestyle. I just want to see a sick son of a bitch, his wife and the rest of his lackeys serve a long time in a captive relationship courtesy of the state.\nThanks again to phyllie for the tip.\nWoman kept as sex slave and tortured for 7 years\nOzarks Community Shocked by Alleged Sex Trafficking Case:\nIn Lebanon, Missouri five men have been indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly sexually torturing a woman over the course of 7 years.\nThose indicted were\u2026\nBagley is said to be the ring leader as investigators say he was the one who held the girl hostage from 2002 to 2009. Bagley originally met the girl, only identified as VF, when she was a 16-year-old runaway. He convinced her to come live with him as a sex slave even forcing her to sign a contract, that she believed was legally binding, into becoming his sex slave.

Investigators were tipped off when Bagley took the woman to the hospital after torturing her sop bad that she went into cardiac arrest. And that\u2019s only half the story. Please read the entire article to get the full effect.\nNow check out what Stokes, Cook and Henry are said to have done\u2026\nSo for 7 years this poor woman was violated repeatedly on the internet and was trafficked across the country and no one lifted a finger to a damn thing about it. Just think of how many men watched Bagley\u2019s shows over the years and felt not one iota of guilt or remorse over that 7 year span. Not to mention the indicted suspects who didn\u2019t even treat her like she was human. While the internet has been a great boon to mankind it also allows scum like this to find each other and congregate to wallow in their torturous ways.\nAnd this is just one of the many reasons why I believe we have failed as a society and that the human race has given up all rights to exist on this planet.\nNod to phyllie.",

        "raw_content": "ORD, EDWARD OTHO CRESAP\nThomas W. Cutrer\nORD, EDWARD OTHO CRESAP (1818\u20131883). Edward Otho Cresap Ord, United States Army officer and designer of Fort Sam Houston, the third son of James and Rebecca Ruth (Cresap) Ord, was born in Cumberland, Maryland, on October 18, 1818. His father was a United States naval officer, and his mother was the daughter of Daniel Cresap, an officer in the American Revolution. The family moved when Ord was a year old to Washington, D.C., where he received his early schooling. He was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point in September 1835 at the age of sixteen. After graduating seventeenth in the class of 1839, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Third Artillery Regiment and after field service against the Florida Seminoles was promoted to first lieutenant two years later. During the Mexican War he was stationed in California. In 1850 he was promoted to captain on Indian duty in the Pacific Northwest. He participated in the suppression of the John Brown insurrection at Harpers Ferry in 1859 but was back in California, stationed at the Presidio, at the time of the firing on Fort Sumter.\nHe received a commission as brigadier general of volunteers on September 14, 1861, and during the first year of the Civil War commanded a brigade assigned to defend the capital. Ord participated in a skirmish with Jeb Stuart's cavalry at Dranesville, Virginia, on December 20, 1861, was promoted to major general of volunteers on May 2, 1862, and was transferred to the western theater of operations. Although he was not even within the sound of the guns at the battle of Iuka, Mississippi, on September 19, 1862, he was given a colonel's brevet in the regular army \"for gallant and meritorious service\" on the field. He was severely wounded a few days later at Hatchie, Mississippi, and was incapacitated until June 1863, when he returned to the army in time to take part in the siege of Vicksburg as commander of the Thirteenth Corps. After the fall of Vicksburg on July 4, Ord held commands in Louisiana and in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. During the siege of Richmond he commanded first the Eighth Corps and later the Eighteenth Corps. He was again seriously wounded at the storming of Fort Harrison in September 1864 and did not return to his command until January 1865. On March 13, 1865, he was awarded the brevet rank of brigadier general for his role in the battle of Hatchie, Mississippi, and a major general's brevet for his part in the assault on Fort Harrison, Virginia. He was then given command of the Army of the James with responsibility for the Department of North Carolina.\nOrd became a brigadier general in the regular United States Army on July 26, 1866. After the surrender of the Confederate armies, he first commanded the Fourth Military District and then the military departments of California and the Platte before receiving assignment to command the Military Department of Texas on April 11, 1875. He supervised the construction of Fort Sam Houston. His command numbered from 3,000 to 3,900 troops, stationed at San Antonio and forts Brown, Concho, Clark, Davis, Duncan, McKavett, and Ringgold. From his headquarters at San Antonio Ord oversaw the scouting, construction of telegraph lines, and post maintenance and repair, as well as suppression of cattle rustling and hostile Indians. Troops under Ord's command were responsible for the discovery of grazing land in the state's trans-Pecos region as well as deposits of silver, iron, lead, and copper.\nOrd was married to Mary Mercer Thompson at San Francisco on October 14, 1854. The couple had thirteen children. He retired from active duty on December 6, 1880, with the rank of major general. He was stricken with yellow fever on a cruise ship bound from New York to Veracruz and died in Havana on July 22, 1883. He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery.\nRobert W.

TWEET SHARE\nThis week, the Arizona Legislature passed a budget that included a raise for teachers and more funding for schools. It led organizers of the teacher walkout to announce an end to their demonstration, which forced schools across the state to close.\nGov. Doug Ducey signed legislation giving teachers a 9 percent raise for the upcoming school year, at a cost of about $300 million dollars. Legislation also requires more than a dozen school districts, including Tucson Unified School District, to levy a secondary property tax to cover the cost of court-ordered desegregation programs.\nArizona 360 invited Pima County Superintendent of Schools Dustin Williams to learn more about how the new budget affects districts in the county.\n\"This was thrown in under the carpet. And now individuals, approximately 100,000 parcels, all located in the TUSD school district will see their taxes increased,\" said Williams, who estimated it would add $10 for every $100,000 appraised.\nWilliams also explained how each district school or charter school is tasked with determining how to make the 9 percent raises work within their teachers\u2019 contracts.\nThe teacher walkouts prompted the Phoenix-based Goldwater Institute to threaten superintendents with a lawsuit. The conservative think tank claims some districts broke state law by coordinating with teachers and closing schools over what it deemed an \"illegal strike.\" Employment attorney Barney Holtzman discussed the difference between a strike and a walkout, and the legitimacy of the Goldwater Institute's claims. \u201cIt is a political position, depending on whether you are for or against what is being debated, you would call it a strike or walkout,\u201d explained Holtzman.\nLeading up to the passage of a spending bill, Arizona 360 looked at the day-by-day impacts of the walkout. It brought us to Victory Worship Center in Tucson that opened its doors to several hundred students for a #RedforEd day camp; the Capitol where teachers demonstrated as lawmakers began to consider a budget; the Altar Valley School District where instruction never stopped, and to Canyon Del Oro High School, where a math teacher continued to meet with students over the course of the walkout to help them prepare for Advanced Placement exams.\nIn the days after a Nogales police officer Jesus Cordova was shot and killed in the line of duty, Lorraine Rivera toured the town with Santa Cruz County Sheriff Tony Estrada to understand the impact on the community.\nNogales had two murders in two months. Prior to that, it had been at least five years since law enforcement in Santa Cruz County had investigated a murder. \u201cWe like to think it\u2019s something that won\u2019t be normal, but it worries us because we\u2019re not used to this. We\u2019re not used to seeing this violence,\u201d said Estrada. Cordova was shot and killed by a car-jacking suspect last week. He was the first Nogales police officer killed in 130 years. Before joining the Nogales Police Department, Cordova served in the Santa Cruz Sheriff\u2019s Department for 11 years.\nMORE: Arizona 360, Education, News, Santa Cruz County\nWildfire Preparedness; Helping Vets Heal; Gold Star Parents Asylum Seekers; Dividing Dollars for Teacher Pay; ADOT in Mexico Historic Walkout; #RedforEd and Charters; Border Agent Acquitted",

Accessories include everything from printer filament to software.\nWhat is 3D printing and scanning?\n3D printing is the process of turning a digital drawing into a 3-dimensional object, layer by layer. It\u0092s a quick and affordable way of creating objects that would otherwise need expensive types of machinery to carry out the work, such as a CNC router or injection moulding machine.\n3D scanning works in a different way to 3D printing. A laser is used to capture the form of an object which is then processed by software contained within the scanner itself. This image can then be used to recreate the object using a 3D printer.\nWhere is 3D printing and scanning used?\nFrom the automotive industry to tooling and aerospace, there are many ways in which 3D printing and scanning can be used effectively. It\u0092s particularly good for design, as it enables designers to be able to see their ideas come to life, and make changes quickly and easily at a very low cost.",

Since 2007, UJA has invested more than $81 million to bring urgent relief to those on the ground and aid long term recovery. Our essential relationships with hundreds of nonprofits worldwide make us agile and ready to mobilize at a moment\u2019s notice.\nCrises we\u2019ve responded to since the new millennium include: the second intifada in Israel, 9/11, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, and Hurricane Sandy here in our own backyard. In the fall of 2017, we led a substantial relief effort in the wake of the hurricanes in Texas, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean\nIn fall 2018, following the deadly earthquake and tsunami in Indonesia, UJA\u2019s partners provided emergency medical services, critical supplies, and psychosocial support. In the aftermath of Hurricanes Florence and Michael, we supported nonprofits that helped in the massive clean-up and provided trauma treatment.\nIn the wake of the Tree of Life massacre in Pittsburgh, UJA took concrete steps to show our solidarity with the shattered Pittsburgh Jewish community and ensure the continued safety of our local institutions.\nSecurity: Long a priority, we\u2019re continuing to help network nonprofits navigate the process of accessing federal, state, and city funding to ensure the safety of our synagogues, day schools, JCCs, and other centers of Jewish life. Additionally, we\u2019re offering bridge loans to nonprofits that have received security grants but cannot afford to pay for security enhancements upfront while awaiting reimbursement from the government. We received $1 million in funding from The Paul E. Singer Foundation to support safety reviews and enhanced precautions at Jewish institutions.\nCounseling: Partners in Caring, a UJA-supported initiative, deployed mental health professionals to area synagogues, day schools, and community centers. Partners in Caring social workers provided short-term counseling, resources and referrals, and assisted with larger awareness and education events.\n#SolidarityShabbat: Exactly one week after the worst act of anti-Semitism in North American history, we demonstrated our resilience and resolve. In partnership with federations across the country, the American Jewish Committee, and the Anti-Defamation League, we organized #SolidarityShabbat, showing the world we stand up to hate.\nCrisis in Israel\nOn November 12-13, 2018, as rocked rained down on Israel from Gaza, our primary overseas partners \u2014 the Jewish Agency for Israel and the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee \u2014 were able to jump into action, helping vulnerable populations in the areas under attack. Almost immediately, 19 emergency checks were hand-delivered to the families of those whose homes suffered a direct hit \u2014 including the family of a Palestinian contractor who was killed in the living room of the Ashkelon apartment he was staying in. In just 24 hours, the Israel Trauma Coalition, an organization created and supported by UJA, treated over 200 people for trauma.\nKeeping Communities Strong\nWe\u2019re also committed to being there before disaster strikes, supporting Jewish communities around the world so that they\u2019re strong, resilient, stable, and equipped to respond to challenges. That means we\u2019re standing up to anti-Semitism and the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement on college campuses. In Europe, it means we\u2019re helping small Jewish communities shape their future, empowering leaders, building infrastructure, and giving grassroots activists the tools to grow their dreams.

At Kantar we\u2019ve been exploring our data to see how people feel about the gender inequalities that still exist.\nOn average, women are still paid 16% less than men per hour of work across the entire EU economy. In the workplace, women continue to be underrepresented in leadership positions, including decision-making function in politics and in corporate boardrooms. Eurobarometer data from our TNS Opinion found that women hold only 27% of seats in national parliaments and governments; 18% of board seats; and 3% CEO positions.\nHowever, almost all Europeans (94%) agree that equality between men and women is a fundamental right. In fact, three quarters of Europeans (76%) think that tackling inequality between men and women should be an EU priority.\nIn the UK, when asked which areas of gender inequality need to be dealt with most urgently, British people responded with tackling the problems of \u2018violence against women\u2019 (55%) and \u2018women being paid less than men for the same work\u2019 (52%), as the top priorities. And the UK is ahead of Europe when asked whether they agree with the statement \u2018women are less willing than men to make a career for themselves\u2019 77% of Brits disagreed compared to an EU average of 68%.\nWhen we ask people how to tackle gender inequality in Europe respondents are most likely to say \u2018ensuring women earn the same as men for the same work\u2019 (42%) as the most effective way to increase the number of women in the labour market. A significant proportion also mentioned \u2018making childcare more accessible\u2019 (36%); \u2018increasing flexible work arrangements\u2019 (33%); and \u2018making it easier for women to combine a job with household and care responsibilities\u2019 (32%).\nOur expert on women, Elisa Birtwistle, from our Futures Company, comments on the 2016 theme of #PledgeForParity noting that \u201cChanging legislation is one significant step in the right direction ... The real challenge is changing socially ingrained gender norms and expectations\u201d\nBirtwistle offers insights on the current and future state of gender inequality:\n'Gendered attributes' which have been typically considered 'female' - e.g. collaboration, empathy, diplomacy, flexibility - are becoming more recognised as valuable in a knowledge economy (rather than manufacturing economy)\nThere is increasing awareness of 'unconcious bias' - both amongst senior leadership teams and amongst women themselves.\nMore and more businesses are publishing their salary data, enabling greater transparency and obliging organisations to address their gender pay gaps.\nMillennials have a much more 'gender neutral' mindset to roles in relationships and in the workplace, which will contribute to the pace of change in socially ingrained gender norms.\nThe vast majority of the EU agrees, tackling inequality between men and women is necessary to establish a fairer society (93% of women and 90% of men).\nMake your pledge, here.\nSource : Kantar TNS, Kantar Futures\nFuture_Perspective_Women2020_updated_2013.pdf (7mb)\nSpecial EuroBarometer Report_Gender Equality.pdf (7.8mb)\nThe data used in this report is based on the EUROBAROMETER survey by TNS opinion & social, a consortium created between TNS political & social, TNS UK and TNS opinion.

Later that same year she became the first woman to be granted an Engineers C Licence.\nWith the help of her father, she purchased her first aircraft, a DeHavilland DH.60 Gypsy Moth G-AAAH. It was in this aircraft that she completed the flight that would ensure her place in the history books and gain her worldwide notoriety.\nIn 1930, Amy Johnson took off from London\u2019s Croydon airport in G-AAAH and some 11,000 miles later, touched down in Darwin, Australia. The first woman to ever fly the route solo.\nThe next year, in 1931 she flew from London to Moscow in 1 day, continuing the flight across Siberia to Tokyo setting a new record from Britain to Japan.\nShe continued to set records in aviation including flying from Britain to South Africa and also flew from Pendine Sands in Wales to New York, although that flight nearly ended in disaster when the aircraft crashed in Connecticut after running out of fuel.\nDuring the Second World War, Amy Johnson flew for the Air Transport Auxillary (ATA) whose task it was to move Miltary aircraft around the UK for the Royal Air Force.\nUnfortunately, in 1941, luck ran out for Amy Johnson when during a flight from Prestwick to RAF Kidlington she lost her bearings in bad weather and when the Airspeed Oxford ran out of fuel she was forced to bail out near the Thames Estuary.\nHer body was never recovered.\nHer exploits have gone on to inspire many women in aviation and she not only shattered flying records but actually dominated in what, even now, is a very male-dominated industry.\nIn 2015, Easyjet launched the Amy Johnson Initiative in a bid to encourage more women to join the airline as pilots. By 2020 the airline wants to 20% of its new entrants to be women.\nIn 2017 Norwegian unveiled Amy Johnson as one of its tail fin images and her picture now adorns the tail of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner and also a Boeing 737-800.\nThe University of Sheffield also has the Amy Johnson Building which houses the department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering.\nAs Ay Johnson continues to inspire so many women in aviation, its only fitting that in 2018 we honour her for International Women\u2019s Day 2018.\nBritish Airways (BA/BAW) has flown a special all-female flight this week which took 61 women to pull off.

With more than 90 percent of the planet\u2019s surface already imaged, MESSENGER\u2019s science team had drafted an ambitious observation campaign designed to tease out additional details from features uncovered during the first two flybys. But an unexpected signal loss prior to closest approach hampered those plans.\u2019\n(Nice images, despite the glitch.)\nCosmic Rays Hit 50-Year High. Galactic cosmic rays have just hit a Space Age high, new data from a NASA spacecraft indicates.\n'\"In 2009, cosmic ray intensities have increased 19 percent beyond anything we've seen in the past 50 years,\" said Richard Mewaldt of Caltech. \"The increase is significant, and it could mean we need to re-think how much radiation shielding astronauts take with them on deep-space missions.\"'\nIncrease in sea levels due to global warming could lead to 'ghost states'\n'Global warming could create \"ghost states\" with governments in exile ruling over scattered citizens and land that has been abandoned to rising seas, an expert said yesterday.'\nClues To Reversing Aging Of Human Muscle Discovered\n'A study led by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, has identified critical biochemical pathways linked to the aging of human muscle. By manipulating these pathways, the researchers were able to turn back the clock on old human muscle, restoring its ability to repair and rebuild itself.'\nSwedish parents win right to name sprog 'Q'\n'The parents of a J\u00e4mtland boy have emerged triumphant from the Swedish Supreme Administrative Court, aka Regeringsr\u00e4tten, and may henceforth legally refer to the sprog as \"Q\".'\nMore Martian Ramblings\nSoon after posting a short note on Paul Davies's proposal about getting to Mars cheaply by staging one-way missions, I ran into my friend Oliver Morton, who pointed me towards a post on his Mainly Martian blog that with takes apart Davies's claims in meticulous detail. Oliver is a Mars-head from way back - his book, Mapping Mars, is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of observation and exploration of the red planet - and his demolition job is pretty comprehensive. Cutting out a return vehicle wouldn't lower the cost of the mission by as much as Davies suggests; if the one-way trip isn't a suicide mission, the Mars explorers will have to set up a permanent base camp under extreme and arduous conditions, and will need continuous resupply from Earth for the forseeable future; the 'lifeboat' argument for space colonisation elides the uncomfortable fact that most people will be left behind. And so on.\nAll in all, it's a bracing dose of realism. If there is a cheap way of going to Mars, a one-way trip isn't the way to do it. (Still, as an irresponsible SF writer, I feel there's plenty of fictional traction in the scenario. I've already dabbled in it, as the background story of one of the secondary characters in The Secret of Life; now I'm wondering what would happen if, say, there was a privately funded one-way mission to Mars that had to rely on viewers' ratings to keep its astronauts resupplied: a Robinson-Crusoe-On-Mars reality show. Or suppose a one-way mission made a go of it with the help of a substantial resupply programme, and fifty years later their descendants were faced with the bill...).\nI do take issue, though, with Oliver's last point:\nHuman Mars exploration is indeed a fine goal, and it is quite possible that fairly early on there will be some who elect to stay. But the only real argument for doing it sooner or rather than later is the selfish one of wanting to see/participate in it personally. I can appreciate that, but I don't think it's a compelling policy point. There are a lot of other big exciting projects to inspire us -- a new energy infrastructure for the world, the millennium development goals, in pure science the development of telescopes for characterising the atmospheres and possible biospheres of exoplanets.\nYes, going to Mars as soon as possible for personal reasons isn't a compelling reason (even if you are a zillionaire who can fund the entire caper). And yes, there are plenty of other ways to spend the money. But I'm not convinced that funding of expensive space missions diverts essential resources from more pressing problems here on Earth. It's a straw man argument that's been around since the Apollo missions, and there's no evidence that cash cut from NASA funds goes to humanitarian aid or other scientific projects instead; either it goes elsewhere in the overloaded federal budget, or it simply isn't spent. And it isn't as if all that money is blasted into orbit, never to return. Most of it stays right here. It's spent on research and development, on construction of infrastructure, and on the salaries of the thousands of men and women who are involved in supporting manned missions in every kind of way. And if manned missions are cut out of the NASA programme, then all that expertise is lost, and so is the momentum.\nThe International Space Station is due to be decomissioned in a few years; if it is, that will put an end to the need for manned missions to low Earth orbit. And although there's talk about going to the Moon, we've already been there, and the main rationale for returning is that it would be a staging post or training ground for the Big Leap Outwards. Given that funds are limited, why not start planning and working towards that Big Leap now, with missions to Near Earth asteroids, a round trip around Venus, and maybe a mission to Phobos, rather than a diversion to the Moon? The romantic in me would like to think that kind of thing might be possible in my life time, at least . . .\nGardens Of The Sun, Part Three, Chapter Five\n\ufeffSri Hong-Owen was walking a transect of the rim forest early one morning, collecting hand crabs for a population survey, when Euclides Peixoto called her out of the blue. He told her that there\u2019d been a little trouble she should know about, back on Earth, and read out a brief official announcement about a successful action against a nest of criminals in Antarctica who had been in flagrant breach of the new regulations controlling scientific research. Survivors had been arrested and transported to Tierra del Fuego; their laboratories had been destroyed.\n\u2018I\u2019m sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there it is,\u2019 Euclides said, not sounding sorry at all.\n\u2018Alder. Is he one of the survivors?\u2019\nGardens of the Sun is amongst the deluge of books published on this Super Thursday. So why not head out to your favourite bookshop, go straight past the piles of stuff by TV personalities towards the quiet calm of the SF section, and do the right thing? Readers in the US might like to know, if they don't already, that The Quiet War is available for download to their Kindles.\nI'll be posting the last extract from Gardens of the Sun tomorrow: a long chapter that will bring us to the end of the third section, and the midway of the book.\nI'm currently rewatching The Sopranos. Frank Sinatra's version of this lovely bittersweet Kurt Weill/Maxwell Anderson song plays over a montage at the opening of the first episode of the second season. But this is just as good. They knew a thing or two about life, those old guys. Durante puts all of his into this.\nBit of a place marker. Busy.\nGardens Of The Sun, Part Three, Chapter Four\nApril, the Foyn Coast of Graham Land, the Antarctic Peninsula. Winter beginning, the days dying back. The sun nearing the end of its short, low arc across the eastern horizon of the Weddel Sea, falling behind the Brazilian frigate, formerly the Admiral Jo\u00e3o Nachtergaele, now named for the murdered green saint Oscar Finnegan Ramos. The bristling superstructure of the frigate silhouetted against the bloody flare of the sunset as it sleeked in towards the coast, navigating by radar and GPS, cutting through brash ice and shouldering aside small table bergs.\n(Ihe last post in this series, a long chapter that will take us to the midpoint of the novel, will go up on Friday, the day after the UK publication date.)",

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019re interested in reducing your cholesterol levels quickly without medication using natural home remedies and herbs, you\u2019ve come to the right place!\nPeople are often told that cholesterol is bad for the body, which is why they exert a lot of effort to reduce their cholesterol levels. This consistent campaign against cholesterol could be bad especially for people who already have low levels of it to begin with. That is because cholesterol is also necessary for regulating the functions of most of the body\u2019s organs.\nThat\u2019s right; there\u2019s \u201cgood\u201d (HDL) and \u201cbad\u201d (LDL) cholesterol.\nLet\u2019s take a look at both types and then we\u2019ll better understand how we can lower cholesterol levels with a healthier diet.\n1 \u201cGood\u201d HDL Cholesterol\n2 \u201cBad\u201d LDL Cholesterol\n3 Natural Remedies To Reduce LDL \u201cBad Cholesterol\u201d Levels Quickly\n3.3 Flaxseed\n4 Why can natural remedies be better than cholesterol medication?\n5 Other Ways to Lower Cholesterol Naturally\n\u201cGood\u201d HDL Cholesterol\nIts most important function involves the communication of the cells in the cell membrane. This ensures that every part of the human body can function as a cohesive whole instead of as a separate collection of millions of cells that do not work well together.\nAside from cell communication, cholesterol also does the following for the cell membrane:\nIt keeps it strong. Cholesterol wraps around the cells, enabling it to maintain its shape against the onslaught of tiny water molecules. It also ensures that the cells wouldn\u2019t be infiltrated by other molecules that do not have any role in its functions.\nIt ensures that important proteins are properly secured inside the plasma membrane of the cells. This also includes facilitating proper communication between each of these proteins, as well as ensuring that each type of protein is in its proper place inside the cells.\nIt should, however, be noted that these functions are performed by the so-called good cholesterol, also known as HDL cholesterol. This type of cholesterol is carried by high-density lipoproteins (HDL) through the bloodstream for cell distribution.\n\u201cBad\u201d LDL Cholesterol\nThe type of cholesterol that health experts keep warning you about is known as LDL cholesterol. This type of cholesterol is carried by low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and is distributed to various parts of the body. A small amount of this type of cholesterol in the body is necessary for maintaining body heat. It also serves as a cholesterol reserve that the body uses up during times when food isn\u2019t readily available for consumption.\nLDL cholesterol becomes harmful to the body if it is deposited in large amounts to the cells. The excess cholesterol contributes to the formation of plaque that causes a blockage in the arteries. At the very least, this blockage can lead to a heart attack or a stroke. At its worst, LDL cholesterol can contribute to the development of various illnesses that are not only fatal but can also last a lifetime.\nNatural Remedies To Reduce LDL \u201cBad Cholesterol\u201d Levels Quickly\nMany people wonder \u201cWhat can I take to lower my cholesterol naturally without medication?\u201d\nThere are a lot of ways in which bad cholesterol can be reduced. Foremost among these methods is by doing some form of routine physical exercise. The next step is to be mindful of your diet by eating the right types of food. Another option that people can try for reducing their cholesterol levels is by consuming various natural remedies.\nNature Made CholestOff Original Caplets w. Plant Sterols & Stanols Value Size 120 ct\nProducts containing at least 400 mg per serving of plant sterols and stanols, eaten twice a day with meals for a daily intake of at least 800 mg as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. One serving of Nature Made CholestOff Original supplies 900 mg of plant sterols and stanols for a daily intake of 1800 mg.\nReducol is a trademark of Pharmachem Laboratories Inc.\nColor Derived from Natural Sources - No Synthetic Dyes\nThese remedies mostly consist of herbs that have been in use as herbal medications since ancient times. These include:\nsoy in and of itself does not really have a huge impact on the reduction of bad cholesterol. Its impact in cholesterol reduction is only about 3% of the total cholesterol level in the body. Soy is beneficial in this respect if it is used as a substitute for foods that contain high levels of saturated fat such as red meat and carbohydrate-rich foods.\nThat is because soy-based meals can give the same feeling of fullness as fatty foods yet it only contains less than half of the saturated fat that these fatty food contain. This means that the body would have to burn its innate fat reserves in order for it to be able to continue doing its normal functions. Therefore, LDL cholesterol is greatly reduced through this process.\ngarlic has been used as a medicinal product before it has even been discovered as a tasty seasoning. Its role in reducing cholesterol is mostly due to its high allicin content. Allicin is also the same substance that gives garlic its antibacterial property. It is also the same component that makes garlic a good remedy for lowering high blood pressure, as well as reducing the possibility that a stroke might occur.\nHomemakers who cook with their bare hands are probably well aware of garlic\u2019s antibacterial property. That is because once crushed garlic comes into contact with an open wound, such as that obtained from a knife cut, the individual would certainly feel a stinging sensation on the wound. The wound then dries up after just a day, which means that the garlic probably helped speed up the healing process.\nthis is one of the few herbs that have the ability to reduce cholesterol by itself. There is no need to substitute flaxseed for any other meal item or to eat it in conjunction with various other foods. Several studies have reached the conclusion that daily consumption of at least one tablespoon of ground flaxseed can significantly lower down the body\u2019s cholesterol level. Whole flaxseed and flaxseed oil also have the same effect although it is not as effective as the ground up variety.\nAside from its ability to lower cholesterol, flaxseed also has a lot of health benefits. For one thing, flaxseed contains high levels of protein and natural fibers. Fiber is a necessity for regulating the functions of the digestive tract, while protein helps maintain the body\u2019s health at a cellular level.\nSource Naturals Cholesterol Rescue, 60 Tablets\nPromotes cholesterol wellness and may reduce your risk of heart disease\nContains plant sterols, which inhibit excess dietary cholesterol absorption\nLIPOMEZIN Cholesterol Lowering High Quality All Natural Supplement (60 Veggie Capsules)\nCHOLESTEROL LOWERING SUPPLEMENT -Natural Alternative that may help to lower cholesterol levels\nSUPPORTS AND PROTECT HEALTHY HEART AND BRAIN FUNCTIONS- may helps maintain healthy circulatory system\nPROVEN RESULTS using blood cholesterol levels, average of 70 point drop in 60-90 days using comparative test results .*\nNaturalia Labs \u2013 Cholesterol Lowering Supplements \u2013 Garlic Pills for Heart Health - 100% Natural Ingredients - Niacin, Guggul, Garlic, Policosanol, Beta Sitosterol \u2013 60 Veggie Capsules\n\uf49a HEALTHY HEART IN JUST ONE PILL: These amazing capsules actively lower the level of LDL cholesterol, maintain an already normal level of HDL cholesterol and are great high blood pressure reducer supplements due to its role as blood sugar stabilizer and blood flow optimizer support.\n\uf49a NO SIDE EFFECTS: Easy to swallow, gentle on the stomach, no aftertaste, no bad smell, no sulfates, no stearates, no allergens.\n\uf49a 100% GUARANTEED, USA MADE: No preservatives, no artificial flavors or ingredients, packed in a BPA free bottle, proudly made in an FDA certified and registered facility in the USA\njust like garlic, ginger was first used as a medicinal plant before people started adding it to their food as a seasoning. Ginger\u2019s popularity as a medicinal herb has reached new heights in recent years. It is now one of the main ingredients in various healthy eating recipes especially juices and shakes. But the simplest way to obtain its medicinal properties is to add a few crushed slices to a boiled recipe such as boiled chicken broth or any other soup.\nGinger has also been widely studied by scientists, which means that the process by which it lowers cholesterol is already well-documented. In effect, ginger stimulates the body to metabolize cholesterol faster. This means that when consumed daily, your cholesterol level is bound to go down several notches in just a few days.\nThere many other herbal remedies that can help reduce cholesterol levels. The ones listed here are just some of the most popular natural remedies and also easiest to implement. These are available in farmer\u2019s markets and in the spice racks of almost every supermarket in the country.\nThe skeptic might begin to ask why natural remedies might be better than the more \u2018effective\u2019 medicines made by pharmaceutical companies.\nWhy can natural remedies be better than cholesterol medication?\nFor one thing, natural remedies are more affordable. This is something that has to be taken into serious consideration given the fact that medicines can be very expensive. Pharmaceutical companies often have to add the costs of processing, advertising, and marketing to the price of their products. This is true even if the meds that you buy are just the generic ones instead of the ones that carry popular medicine brands.\nAnother advantage of using natural remedies is that these do not have too many harmful side effects. As a matter of fact, these natural remedies have more benefits aside from performing the purpose for which they were bought. These benefits stem from the fact that natural remedies are filled with nutrients that comes from nature. These ingredients have not been leeched out by any of the processes that pharmaceutical drugs often have to go through.\nCommon side effects of cholesterol medication are muscle pain, memory loss, and elevated liver enzymes.\nOther Ways to Lower Cholesterol Naturally\nLose excess weight, take all-natural supplements high in plant sterols like CholestOff (product box posted earlier), replace meat with protein-rich fruits and vegetables, and quite possibly the single-most important step you can take is\u2026\nLimit your intake of foods full of saturated fats, trans fats, and dietary cholesterol and eat more fiber.

Summer 2017 isn't like that though, as there are many shows coming back with either midseason premieres or season premieres. There are four in particular that fans are extremely excited about. If you're really stuck on things to watch, make sure you tune into these four scripted shows this summer. The weeks until your favorite shows are back will fly by.\nOne of the biggest shows of the year is finally returning. Fans were not happy to hear that \"Game of Thrones\" wouldn't get its usual April start, and they were definitely not impressed to hear that the season would be cut from 10 episodes to seven. The good news is the show will be here in July. There is a little over a month before it returns to HBO. Make sure you tune in and watch as the last two Lannisters battle to keep the Iron Throne.\n'Suits' season 7\nAnother show hitting its seventh season is legal drama \"Suits.\" After a year behind bars, Mike Ross is finally out and is now officially an attorney. Things will completely change at the law firm, where Rachel is now also a lawyer and Harvey has been promoted to managing partner. There's no Jessica to buffer Harvey and Louis now, and Donna has to figure out where to go after her business idea failed.\n'Nashville' season 5B\nIf you prefer your music with a country style, then you want to catch a show that's returning from its mid-season break. \"Nashville\" season 5 is back on June 1. Fans will get to pick up the pieces from Rayna's death and follow the characters as they move forward with their lives.\nThere are a few new characters to get to know better, as the show moves forward ready for its already confirmed sixth season.\n'Fear the Walking Dead' season 3\nThe prequel to \"The Walking Dead\" is back for its third season in June. This season is going to be exciting for \"Buffy the Vampire Slayer,\" as Emma Caulfield is going to be in the series. AMC has refused to share details about the character. Nick and Lucy will also start changing the way they think and the people they're willing to trust after the harrowing events of season 2. Danay Garcia, who plays Lucy, is looking forward to switching roles and becoming the foreigner who has to follow other people's rules this time.\nWhich shows are you most looking forward to in summer 2017? Some are starting next month and others in July.\nMake sure you get your calendars ready and fill up your schedule while you wait for the return of your favorite shows.",

It is within the school grounds, but few have discovered what it is actually used for.\nSideburn Support Center was built 40 years ago as a food and book storage warehouse, but now is an office building for all the maintenance workers in the county. They check into the office every day and are assigned a daily job in different parts of the county by the supervisor.\nThe inside of the building appears office-like, while the back looks more like a warehouse, with different equipment and trucks for workers. The faculty in this building takes care of all FCPS facilities.\nThere are over 200 similar buildings for maintenance in the county and the maintenance organization has approximately 468 people. They have four other buildings, called satellites, in Edison High School, a leased space in Herndon, Woodson High School and the North East satellite; these run independently and are responsible for the Tyson\u2019s Corner area.\n\u201cIt helps that they are right across the street and with the recent flood in the middle school, it was helpful for them to be that close,\u201d administrative services principal Bill Evers said.\nSideburn Support Center was built across the street because the land was available.\nThe building has a staff development program, so the building also features a training room.

His dream is to be a motivational speaker.\nHe was giving a speech about how no matter your difficulties in life (and he had big ones) you can survive and succeed. The subject was interesting and well organized. His personal story of surviving abuse was moving. The problem was delivery.\nHe spoke convincingly but didn\u2019t focus on his audience. His eyes went over their head, down to the floor, up to the ceiling, shifting side to side without moving his head. I knew part of it was his thinking. But he didn\u2019t make eye contact with each member watching him.\nI asked him after the speech, \u201cWho were you talking to?\u201d The question startled him. \u201cEverybody.\u201d\nI\u2019ve seen hundreds if not thousands of websites that do the same thing. Is your website speaking to \u201cEverybody.\u201d Many companies get stuck on talking about themselves \u2013 their accomplishments, their quality, their unique product or service. They don\u2019t focus on their audience because they\u2019re speaking to \u201cEverybody.\u201d\nFirst Question: Who\u2019s Your Buyer?\nYou may have a product or service that has a broad market. They more than likely don\u2019t all think the same. But they have one thing in common, a desire that needs to be met. You need to put together that one commonality and focus it on one persona.\nYou need to sound like you\u2019re talking to one person. Why? It\u2019s personal.\nPut yourself in their shoes. If someone had something to tell that was personal to you, would you want him speaking to \u201ceverybody?\u201d Puts you off, doesn\u2019t it?\n2ndQuestion: How Well Do You Know the Guy?\nDo you talk to your close friends or family in general? No! Would you talk that way to someone who needs help? I hope not. You\u2019re trying to inform them. You care about them. You want them to have the right result. Get to know your prospect. Figure out that one ideal customer you\u2019re trying to get across to.\nThe one person with the biggest problem you want to solve. He will buy from you, more than once. Figuring out who he is three dimensionally and what he is suffering from or badly wants is key. Otherwise, you\u2019ll be pitching to a lot of people who just don\u2019t care. That\u2019s a waste of money.\nHere is why most company websites are stuck on who they are. They don\u2019t know how to ask. They don\u2019t know who they\u2019re talking to or what that person wants. They have an idea but that\u2019s all. Which is why they talk to \u201cEverybody.\u201d\nI am a Distinguished Toastmaster, President\u2019s Distinguished Division and Area Director. I got there by knowing how to work with people as a team and individually in leadership. I got there by knowing how to speak to an audience. Yes, I can project (I used to act). What I found most important in my training was interpersonal speaking both on and off stage.\nI got more from talking with them (him) than at them (him). One persona focus works.\nDoes your website talk to \u201cEverybody?\u201d It\u2019s time for an update.",

        "raw_content": "Dame Products reveals sex toy Fin via Kickstarter campaign\nDean Takahashi@deantak\t November 3, 2016 5:01 AM\nAbove: Dame Products' Fin is a hands-free sex toy.\nImage Credit: Dame Products\nDame Products is making a bit of history today as the female-run company launches the first sex toy crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.\nBrooklyn, N.Y.-based Dame Products is launching Fin, which is a hands-on sex toy aimed at enhancing \u201cnatural intimacy.\u201d It is the first crowdfunding campaign for a sex toy on Kickstarter.\nFin is a \u201cfinger vibrator,\u201d and it\u2019s the second product from Dame Products, which was founded by Alexandra Fine and Janet Lieberman. Their sex toys emphasize unobtrusiveness, intuitive use, and function-first design.\nWhile their first invention, Eva, introduced a hands-free option, Fin will serve as a fully hands-on device. Fin\u2019s design enhances the natural movements of intimate touching by adding vibration, the company said. Dame Products raised money for Eva on Indiegogo in its earlier campaign.\nUnlike most vibrators, Fin is worn between the fingers, optimizing agility and ease of use. The vibrator features a removable tether and fits both women\u2019s and men\u2019s hands. It can be worn at the tips of the fingers, the base of the palm, or on the backside of the fingers \u2014 allowing the wearer\u2019s fingers to have direct contact with their partner (or themselves) with resonating vibrations from Fin.\nAbove: Alexandra Fine and Janet Lieberman of Dame Products.\nKickstarter has rejected sex toy campaigns in the past. But it decided to open its platform to Fin in recognition of Dame Products\u2019 pursuit of innovation and its mission-driven approach. Dame Products said it is committed to de-sensationalizing toys for sex and closing the \u201cPleasure Gap\u201d \u2014 a common disparity in sexual satisfaction seen most frequently in heterosexual sex.\nIn fact, women are over four times more likely to describe recent sex as \u201cnot at all pleasurable.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be launching our second campaign, following the success of our first product, Eva,\u201d says Alexandra Fine, CEO of Dame Products, in a statement. \u201cTurning to crowdfunding is a conscious decision on our part \u2014 something we find crucial when designing products like ours. The immediate feedback and constant two-way communication with our customers allows us to gain insight into the industry in a valuable way.\u201d\nFine has a master\u2019s degree in clinical psychology, while Lieberman is an MIT-educated mechanical engineer. Their mission is to expand the sexual experiences of women and introduce unique, female-oriented options into an oft-outdated industry.\n\u201cOur mission is to listen to, study, and ultimately design around women\u2019s real, unmet needs,\u201d said Lieberman, in a statement. \u201cI spent years engineering top of the line products, but I found myself consistently accepting lower standards when it came to sex toys. We founded Dame Products out of the belief that sex toys should be held to the same standards as any other consumer product. We feel we\u2019ve accomplished that with Fin.\u201d\nPreviously, Dame Products raised $575,000 on Indiegogo in October 2014 to make Eva, a hands-free vibrator. That product sold more than 40,000 units.\n\u201cUntil now, this industry has been separated from all others,\u201d said Fine. \u201cWe\u2019re consistently driven by the notion that vibrators are tools for sexual wellness and sexual agency. We\u2019d like to make them more approachable, reliable, and functional for anyone who\u2019s interested \u2014 making the world a happier place, one vagina at a time.\u201d",

First, you need to consider when they are able to start. If you need to have this done in the next few weeks, and they cannot start for a couple months, these are the companies that you will not want to consider at all.

First of all, they will offer discounted prices for the painting jobs that they will do for you. Second, they will have longevity in the community, perhaps providing their painting services for many years or decades.

        "title": "Vitamin Deficiency Symptoms: Signs Not To Overlook \u2022 Viral Healths",
        "raw_content": "Vitamin deficiency symptoms normally will manifest when the body persistently lack one or more vitamins .Our bodies have a minimal amount of vitamins and minerals it needs regularly to stay healthy. When there is a prolonged shortage of any such vitamins, it will not be able to stay optimally healthy and function effectively over a long period. This lack then manifests in the form of one symptom or the other.\nA balanced diet theoretically supplies enough vitamins. However, severe conditions can still develop if the diet does not meet the needs of the body. Symptoms of a shortage of vitamins and minerals usually appear when the deficiency is already in a relatively advanced level. Like mineral deficiency, their effect can be serious if allowed to prolong.\nFor example, people who do not have enough vitamin A, B1 and B2 suffer from recurrent fatigue, mental or emotional disorders, loss of appetite and leaked lips among others. Fortunately, vitamins, whether . or . are readily affordable.\nCommon causes of vitamin deficiency symptoms\nThe most common causes of these vitamin deficiencies will include:\nPoor quality foods and bad eating habits\nImproper absorption of vitamins and minerals (mostly due to liver or intestinal disorders),\nIntake of drugs that interfere with the intake of vitamins\nAnd lack of exposure to sunlight.\nBut how do you know if you have a vitamin deficiency? Below are the most important vitamin deficiency symptoms likely to manifest for different deficiencies.\nDull looking skin and hair will likely result when there is a persistent lack of vitamin A.\nIf there is persistent lack of vitamin A, it will result to blurred vision with time. A chronic deficiency can also cause partial blindness, or even complete blindness in the long run. To avoid such see the best foods for healthy eyes.\nRecurrent fatigue\nRecurrent fatigue and general body weakness is a warning sign of lack of vitamins B1, B2 and B3. These are essential vitamins for energy supply and nervous system. Therefore, a persistent shortage will make the person feel frequently exhausted and weak.\nQuite a number of factors are responsible for depression. Persistent lack of the energy source vitamins will result to weakness. In the long run, it can lead to depression and anxiety. Also, deficiency in vitamin B6 may also result in depression.\nSuffering from numbness in the legs may result as a result of deficiency in the vitamins B1, B2, and B3. This is usually due to the decrease in the functioning of the nerves. Deficiency in vitamin B5 will also result in such similar numbness in addition to burning sensation on the feet.\nDeficit in the vitamins B1, B2, and B3 is associated with less appetite and unhealthy weight loss. Reduced appetite may also result from deficiency of vitamin B8.\nDry and flaky skin is often associated with deficiency in vitamin B2 which is responsible for good hemoglobin level. Skin inflammation may also result from the deficiency of this vitamin.\nRed eyes: one of vitamin deficiency symptoms\nAmong a few other causes, red eyes and pain around the mouth and tongue can be the symptom of deficiency in vitamin B2.\nSkin\u2019s health deterioration\nSkin\u2019s health may deteriorate following deficiency in vitamin B3. Rash, inflammation or even swelling may follow.\nA bad breath may not always be the result of only poor oral hygiene. Sometimes it is the result of deficiency in vitamin B3.\nInsomnia may sometimes be the symptom of deficiency in vitamins B5 and B6. It should be noted that a number of other factors could be responsible for difficulty in sleeping.\nPoor mental focus can sometimes be the effect of deficiency in vitamin B6.\nAnemia is one of the symptoms of deficiency in vitamin B11 otherwise known as folic acid. This condition will also result in frequent fatigue. Vitamin B12 deficiency may also result in anemia. Anemia will also result in frequent fatigue and headache.\nPoor growth and development can be a very serious symptom of deficiency in vitamin B11 or folic acid. Pregnant women often have a deficiency of this vitamin. A deficit of vitamin B11 is dangerous for unborn babies and infants.\nThe B vitamins are known to help fight certain types of cancer and heart disease. Although there is no consensus link between cancer and a daily intake of B vitamins, studies suggesting that the B vitamins helped prevent cancer power from increasing are readily available. Among other causes, cancer is believed by some to be one of the vitamin deficiency symptoms of the B vitamins, including the \u201cVitamin B17\u201d.\nPoor nervous system\nPoor nervous system is a symptom often associated with Vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is majorly found in animal products. This implies that pure vegetarians will be having a deficiency of this vitamin. Nervousness may also result from the deficiency of Vitamin E and B3.\nHowever, the vegetarians can make it up with good quality vitamin B complex or supplement.\nPoor healing of wounds\nPoor healing of wounds and bone fractures can be a symptom of deficiency of vitamin C. It should be noted that poor health condition such as diabetes can also result in this symptom. This may also leads to blood bleeding.\nSwelling of joints may result as a deficiency of vitamin C. Other factors may also be responsible for this. Coconut and coconut water with their strong anti inflammatory property can be of great help here.\nWeakness of bones\nWeakness of bone\nWeakness of bones is a symptom associated with deficiency of vitamin D. Its manifestation takes a long while to manifest. This is partly the reason it is more common among the elderly. Severe deficiency can also be made manifest among children in the form of rickets.\nWeakness of bones may also be one of the vitamin deficiency symptoms of vitamin K.\nKidney stone most often is one of the vitamin deficiency symptoms of vitamin D. Like weakness of bones it will also take a long while to manifest.\nTooth decay is also one of the symptoms of deficiency in vitamin D. Like in the case of weakness of bones it will take a long while to be fully manifested.\nLoss of balance is a symptom that is associated with deficiency of vitamin E. This is not very common but it is there among a number of people.\nFertility problems, among many other possible causes, can be a manifestation of vitamin deficiency symptoms of Vitamin E.\nPoor blood clotting is usually associated with shortage of vitamin K. This may result when taking long-term antibiotics.\nHaving in mind that some vitamin deficiency symptoms can be serious, an important question that rises is: do you still need to take vitamins even if you have a healthy diet? The answer is yes. Proper food consumption must be accompanied by the correct vitamins and minerals.\nVitamins serve as buffers in case your diet does not fully meet your daily needs. You may not easily calculate how much vitamins and minerals your body consumes in each meal you eat. And while most people take vitamins to prevent common deficiency-related diseases, not all products cater to what your body needs. There are people who still do not need what you need.\nYes, the old belief that a good diet is enough to keep you going has become a myth. It\u2019s time to invest in your health. Whether we admit it or not, we need vitamins. Some vitamins are specifically designed . or .. Of course, it leads to additional costs; but if we really think about it, vitamins are probably the cheapest type of insurance available against diseases. Taking some measures to avoid these vitamin deficiency symptoms is a wise decision.

There will be times when we are mistreated and offended for the Gospel\u2019s sake, but we need to press on. Paul thought he was doing a service for God when he was persecuting and killing Christians. He was walking in darkness but he encountered a powerful Light that changed his life. As long as Jesus was here with the disciples He knew that He would be the target for all the abuse. But now that He was leaving, He knew that He had to reinforce the things He had been teaching them. We need that same encouragement every day in our lives. It is easy for us to become frustrated and want to give up, but we have a friend that sticks closer to us than a brother. He is always with us. As Paul learned after his life-changing event, we must suffer with Christ. There is a cross for each of us to bear. But we must remember and hang onto the conclusion that Paul came to in his journey.\n18 The sufferings we have now are nothing compared to the great glory that will be shown to us. 19 Everything God made is waiting with excitement for God to show his children\u2019s glory completely.\u2014Romans 8:18,19 NCV\n6 God began doing a good work in you, and I am sure he will continue it until it is finished when Jesus Christ comes again\u2013Philippians 1:6 NCV\nPersecution, perserverance, Salvation, Uncategorized\tEncouraging, friends, persecution, perseverance, salvation, testing\t0 Comments\n\u2190 \u201cGo Tell It\u2026.Everywhere\u201d\nCloser Than Face-to -Face \u2192",

By opening access and advancing treatments, Clinical Research Pathways helps make new, effective medicines available to the public.\nIncreasing Diversity in Clinical Trials Through Innovative Programs\nClinical trials have a powerful impact on public health.\nThey drive innovations in treatment and, for some patients, improve access to healthcare. In fact, studies suggest that populations that are underrepresented in clinical research tend to receive poorer healthcare and have worse health outcomes.\nClinical Research Pathways develops innovative programs to address inequities by improving diversity in clinical trials.\nOur programs encourage minorities to participate in appropriate clinical trials. We reach out to patients through trusted primary care providers who are trained as clinical investigators. Enrolling qualified minority patients gives them the opportunity to share in the benefits of the research results. Increasing diversity helps ensure that study results apply to all segments of the population.\nHelping Desperately Ill Patients Get Access to Experimental Medicines\nClinical Research Pathways works with the Food and Drug Administration\u2019s (FDA\u2019s) expanded access process.\nOur goal is to enable desperately ill patients to access experimental treatments\u2014without causing undue harm to them or jeopardizing drug development for future patients.\nWe help simplify the approval process.\nWe do that by providing educational materials and training to institutional review boards (IRBs) and physicians.\nAs a resource on expanded access, we help patients, physicians, and IRBs use the approval process, understand new \u201cright-to-try\u201d legislation, and take advantage of FDA options that create access for larger groups of patients.

In this assignment you are going to choose a topic that interests you, and write a short, introductory guide to some of the tools and sources that are available online. The topic could be anything with a historical dimension: a sub-field of history, a surname, a genre of literature, a methodology like palynology or paleography, the history of durien fruit or Dark Avengers comic books.

        "raw_content": "Investigation Jobs\nGet to the bottom of things in your work.\nIf you have an inquisitive nature, or are just plain nosy, then a career doing investigations may be just the ticket for you. Whether you are filing reports for a daily newspaper or digging into the personal affairs of your clients, you\u2019ll satisfy your craving for information while earning a decent living. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that in 2010, private investigators, for example, earned a medium income of $42,870 a year.\nFreelance journalists hire themselves out on a per-story basis. On your own, you can investigate a scandal, for example, interview all the parties involved, write the story, and then sell it to a newspaper or high-profile tell-all magazine. True-crime book writers investigate interesting crimes as well. Another avenue of self-employment is a private investigator. You need to be licensed in most states, serving an internship under a licensed private investigator for a specific number of years before earning your own license. Once you get that, you can work for private clients, attorneys and commercial operations, doing everything from employment computer background checks to insurance fraud investigations and divorce cases.\nThere are a slew of opportunities in the government sector for investigators. The FBI, Internal Revenue Service, CIA, Securities and Exchange Commission, and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives all hire professional investigators as part of their teams. Government agencies usually require at least a four-year college degree either in criminal justice or in the arena in which they specialize. The SEC for example is a regulatory agency that requires its agents to have degrees in finance. Some agencies, like the FBI, also often have strict physical requirements and age limits for their investigators.\nIf you want to serve locally or regionally on a police department as an investigator or detective, you usually need to come up through the ranks and start out as a rookie policewoman. You\u2019ll have to get accepted to the police academy in the area where you want to serve. Additional education in law enforcement and criminal justice may help you reach detective status quicker, but most departments look for initiative and on-the-job performance that shows you can cut it as a detective before you can get promoted.\nStaff jobs at newspapers and magazines, television and radio stations and news-based web companies can provide you with a steady income while still fulfilling your need to know what\u2019s going on. As an investigative journalist, you can often follow a story for a considerable amount of time and not have to worry about the bills like you do if you\u2019re freelance. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported in 2010 that print and broadcast journalists earned a median income of $36,000 and employers prefer a bachelor\u2019s degree.\nBureau of Labor Statistics: Private Detectives and Investigators\nFederal Bureau of Investigation: Careers\nIRS: Law Enforcement and Investigation\nFederal Government Jobs: Investigation Jobs\nDepartment of Labor: Major Occupation Categories\nYearly Income of a Photographer\nThe Average Income of a Detective\nWhat Are the Duties of a Lawyer?\nAssistant Public Prosecutor Duties\nHow to Get a Stock Broker License\nRFP Writer Job Description\nQualities of a Good Investigative Reporter",

        "raw_content": "January 1, 2019 DeconversionAtheism, Deconversion, Deism, Personal Power, Religion, Self-Helpwomanoftheexile\nJust about every week now, I spot a gray hair on my head, and almost always pluck it out. If I don\u2019t kick this habit eventually, I will someday discover that I don\u2019t have very much hair left. For now, though, I can stave my annoyance at seeing what looks- to me- like little bits of lint mingled in with my dark mane by simply removing the offending fibers. I keep telling myself that I\u2019ll let it fly when I can have a true salt and pepper, not this random stray white strand here and there, but maybe that\u2019s a lie. Maybe I\u2019ll dye it.\nI don\u2019t know how or when I went from simply trying to tame my tresses with chemicals, to natural hair that I would cut short to keep manageable, to graying- but still gratefully natural- hair that I\u2019m plucking out one gray at a time. I\u2019m trying to grow it out again, and it\u2019s getting to that weird awkward stage, so I twisted it out. I undid the twists today and got springy curls that my co-workers complimented me on when I went in today. Will I be able to keep it up? Probably not, but it\u2019s worth a try.\nSometimes when I think about things that I won\u2019t be able to keep up, it\u2019s about things I shouldn\u2019t keep up, like plucking out gray hairs. Most times it\u2019s about much bigger things, like my religious and spiritual identity. As this year is ending, I find myself reflecting on the theological journey that I embarked on between 2016- when I started my Tumblr\u2013 to early 2018, which corresponded in both the death of my Christian identity and the death of my father. Of course, I had stopped identifying as Christian the year before, but I didn\u2019t feel settled as an \u201cunbeliever\u201d until sometime later.\nI now believe that deceased people mostly stay dead, but it seems that old beliefs and habits die harder. While sitting with my mother and sisters in their nightly Bible study, I expressed to my mom that I missed my old church and sometimes felt an urge to go, but I didn\u2019t feel right because I \u201cno longer identify as a Christian.\u201d I could sense in my sisters their awkwardness at that confession- even though they were already aware of it- and Mom quickly said, almost in amusement, \u201cI don\u2019t see how you could be raised in it and not believe in it\u201d but rather than let that hang she continued, \u201cJust go and hear a good word.\u201d\nIronically, in my inability to \u201cgo and hear a good word\u201d I am more like my father than my mother. He would go with her to Christian conventions, and while she was able to simply lose herself in the spirit of worship and the moment, my dad was extremely cautious and critical. One time, he took his laptop with him to the service, and when one of the people sitting next to us casually mentioned it, my dad replied, \u201cYes- so no one can lie to me.\u201d He was looking up scriptures and Strong\u2019s numbers on the laptop so that he could judge everything that was being said against his own understanding of the Bible.\nJust like my father, I find myself hyper-aware of my own disharmony and disagreement when I attend services. It\u2019s hard to fully enjoy songs that praise Jesus for giving his life for our sins and \u201cconquering the grave\u201d, when I no longer believe in the concept of Original Sin and that we need to be saved from it, or that a man who lived 2000 years ago would be the catalyst through which this salvation would be possible. I don\u2019t believe in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, physical or otherwise, or that he was \u201cfully god and fully man\u201d, or anything else with regards to him being divine or supernatural. I don\u2019t believe that the Judeo-Christian god as described in the Bible exists; he is described as all-powerful, all-knowing, ever present, full of love and mercy and worthy of worship.\nWhen I joined my church, I signed an agreement that I believed in certain tenants of faith, and those are lost to me now. Continuing to attend now seems disingenuous. Yes, I miss the worship music, even though I become tense when hearing songs that explicitly worship Jesus or mention being redeemed from sin (many of them don\u2019t- some instead talk vaguely about God being present in times of trouble). Yes, I immensely miss the fellowship and sense of purpose and community. Yes, I think that my church benefits the community that it serves. Somehow, though, I am unable to, as my boyfriend put it, \u201cseparate the ritual from the belief.\u201d To me, the belief is the ritual.\nI cannot be faulted for perceiving it this way, because that is what the Pauline epistles teach. They taught that the \u201cworks of the law\u201d or all the Old Testament Jewish rituals, could not save a person from sin, but only genuine faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior of the world. My boyfriend wanted to know why I couldn\u2019t take a more Jewish approach- there are many Jewish people who fully practice Jewish rituals but do not focus on believing in the existence of God. There are, however, no \u201cChristian atheists\u201d and the reason for that is abundantly clear.\nYes, there are Christian denominations that do not espouse that the Bible is inerrant and take a more allegorical approach to the scriptures. There are sex-positive and LGBTQ+ friendly churches. There are denominations that don\u2019t believe in a physical resurrection of Jesus, but they do believe somewhat in his divinity. I was listening to the podcast Sunday School Dropouts. For one of their episodes (and if I find it, I\u2019ll add it here later) they were talking to someone who had one atheist and one Christian parent, and who had spent her life as an atheist. She talked about reading progressive Christian literature, including \u201cTake this Bread\u201d by Sara Miles, and finding herself consistently moved to tears, but not understanding what was happening to her. Eventually, she called a Christian friend who helped her to fully realize her conversion.\nWhen Lauren O\u2019Neal- one of the hosts of the podcast and a self-proclaimed ex-Christian- heard this story, she said that one of the things she was so afraid of was that she would eventually end up being Christian again. I think that deep down, I fear this too, because I\u2019m not sure what it could possibly look like. If I believe in all of the teachings of Jesus from the Gospel of Matthew, things like the beatitudes and his condemnation of the sanctimonious and the rich, but ignore his emphasis on his own divinity as it is found in the Gospel of John, I find myself feeling as though I am ignoring part of the picture.\nThis is not meant as a condemnation of Christian denominations outside Fundamentalist or Evangelical Christianity. It is just difficult for me to transition from a faith where the direct intervention of a loving and/or judgmental god in the world was emphasized, to a faith where God is acknowledged but relegated to a more inferior role. Maybe I\u2019m missing something, maybe God isn\u2019t any less \u201creal\u201d for Progressive Christians than for Evangelicals. I keep thinking of that verse that\u2019s attributed to Paul and was so often quoted by my dad. \u201cHaving a form of godliness but denying the power. From such turn away.\u201d 2 Timothy 3:5. Now that I read that again, I can see that he was probably taking it out of context, but somehow it stuck in my mind, especially when paired with 1 Corinthians 2:5, \u201cThat your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.\u201d\nThere has been such an emphasis on the \u201cpower of God\u201d and supernatural answers of prayer, healing, et cetera, in my previous denomination, that it\u2019s hard to look to belief systems that lack that kind of a tangible deity and feel at home in them. It doesn\u2019t matter that it was clear that confirmation bias played a role in what people thought were answered prayers. It doesn\u2019t matter if Evangelical Christian theology never came up with a good explanation for why people in developed nations like the U.S. and Australia were experiencing prosperity, but Christians in other nations were suffering. In fact, even within the United States there is a discrepancy between the haves and the have-nots who practice Christianity.\nIt reminds me of something I heard on an NPR bit recently (I looked everywhere and couldn\u2019t find that either). It was about first-generation college students and the struggles they were facing, financially and otherwise as they tried to finish school. One young Latino man named Mario was talking about how he wanted to become a Christian counselor. He decided to attend Liberty University. When the journalists followed up with him, though, some of his views on Christianity had changed. He pointed out that when many of his friends would pray when their cars would break down, someone would help them get a car within a week or even a day. He, however, who was going to college and struggling to juggle two jobs, would have to go without a car if his broke down, regardless of whether he prayed or not. These realities really negate the \u201cprosperity gospel\u201d that is so prevalent in this country.\nTonight, I really was going to go to a New Year\u2019s Eve church service, despite still believing everything that I have expressed here. The fact that I didn\u2019t is mainly luck. I knew my church was going to be having an end of the year service yesterday morning (Sunday), but after consulting with my boyfriend I decided not to go. He encouraged me to consider why I wanted to go, and in that conversation was when he made the comments about my not being able to \u201cseparate the ritual from the belief\u201d and the fact that I wasn\u2019t ready to go if I couldn\u2019t do that, i.e. just enjoy the service for its own sake.\nAt work today, someone mentioned that she might be attending a New Year\u2019s Eve candle night service. When I got home, I desperately searched to see if the church that I am a member of was having one. I suspected that they were not because I couldn\u2019t remember having ever attended one in the past. It turns out that they are not. I was saved- since there was no way I was going to go to a New Year\u2019s Eve service at a strange church- and so instead of going to church I\u2019m watching an atheist Youtuber named Mr Atheist do a New Year\u2019s Eve livestream. I normally don\u2019t like \u201cAtheist Apologetics\u201d or whatever the real name is called, but he isn\u2019t overly crass or condescending and is also a friend to women and the LGBTQ+ community.\nI know that it\u2019s silly to ascribe cosmic significance to small things, but I almost feel like me choosing not to go to the service yesterday, even though I felt conflicted and almost went back on it, was taking a brave step in a new direction. I thought a lot about how I wanted to start out this new year. I knew that it would be a bit contradictory to spend it in a church, but at the same time I was thinking about Progressive Christianity and whether it would be a good fit for me. Granted, my old church is Assemblies of God, but I thought maybe just starting out in church in general wouldn\u2019t be a bad start to the year.\nIt\u2019s been three years since the beginning of my deconversion. I was even more uncertain. I didn\u2019t have gray hairs back then. I was still hiding my new beliefs from my parents. I wish that the roots of hyperreligiosity were as easy to pluck out as the hairs on my head, but I think one day those roots won\u2019t grow back. Since January 2016, I have grown in confidence. I have grown in my ability to live in my own truth. I have grown gray hairs. Maybe this doesn\u2019t mean very much, because I am still relatively young, and I have a lot to learn, but I have also learned and grown a lot.\nWalking away hasn\u2019t been easy but staying was impossible.",

ASLA, executive vice president and CEO of the American Society of Landscape Architects, in the wake of the report, released October 8 by the United Nations\u2019 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change:\n\u201cAlready, the dire effects of climate change are visible in every corner of the globe. But the startling new report of the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change makes clear that if significant actions aren\u2019t taken immediately, the world could see a rise in atmospheric temperatures of 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2040, triggering catastrophic effects worldwide. Landscape architects work at the intersection of the built and natural environments and have embraced their responsibility to design and plan healthy, climate-smart and resilient communities. The ominous U.N. report further reinforces the need for all those responsible for shaping human environments to urgently redouble their efforts to both mitigate climate effects and to ensure the resilience of communities already being threatened by the consequences of inaction.\u201d\nAmerican Society of Landscape Architects also released a report earlier in 2018 entitled Smart Policies for a Changing Climate [pdf], spells out design and planning solutions, as well as public policies, that can help engender resilient and climate-smart communities and can be downloaded here [pdf].\nASLA has joined the We Are Still In Movement\nASLA announces the 2017 Professional Awards",

        "raw_content": "Ghoulish guide to Halloween Safety\nHalloween is a holiday for kids to dress up, eat candy and have fun; it is common to forget about the dangers that the holiday brings around.\nAccording to the National Safety Council, in 2015 there were 6,700 pedestrian deaths on Halloween. This is a result of children darting out in the street or simply being unaware of street safety.\nDriver Precautions\nDon\u2019t have kids? Not a fan of the holiday? Drivers should be aware that the entire week of Halloween there will be kids out running around. If it is dark, turn out of driveways and alleys slowly and always check mirrors and rear cameras. Drivers with minimal experience should consider staying off the road at night. Also, if Halloween parties are in the works, it is important to have a plan to get home that does not involve drinking and driving. Drinking and driving is dangerous on its own, but it is even more dangerous with the number of pedestrians.\nPeople putting out decorations, stores stocking candy and Halloween shops opening are signs that Halloween is approaching. Being prepared for the holiday can make a difference. Some neighborhoods have trick-or-treating on different nights depending on school schedules, so being aware of the times will keep more people off the road when there are kids wandering the streets.\n\u201cHave a plan and know where your kids are trick-or-treating and have an idea of where you are at in case of an emergency,\u201d Micah Horner, Midwest City firefighter, said. \u201cIf you\u2019re in a situation where you need to call 911, it is important to know where you\u2019re at so first responders can get there quickly.\u201d\nMake Children Aware\nIf a child is old enough to go trick-or-treating without an adult, ensure they know basic pedestrian safety. Teach them not to walk out in front of cars or to walk by a vehicle that is backing out of its driveway. Involve children in planning a route so everyone is aware of the designated trick-or-treating area. Give children a curfew, as well. Cell phones for communication are also a good idea, but emphasize the importance of not looking at phones while walking in the street. Children should also know not to enter a stranger\u2019s home or vehicle. While carrying a bucket of treats is tempting, guarantee a child\u2019s safety by not allowing them to eat any candy until they get home and parents or guardians have the opportunity to check the candy for any possible tampering.\nOne of the most exciting parts of Halloween is to be able to dress up as something else. However, check labels to ensure wigs, clothing and accessories are flame-resistant.\nOne mom offered her own advice.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re going to be walking for trick-or-treating, wear comfortable, well-fitting shoes \u2013 costume style shoes might be cute but blisters are not,\u201d said Misty Engelbrecht, Director of Academic Outreach and Adult Education.\nIf a child is trick-or-treating, consider using non-toxic face paint instead of a mask. Masks can obstruct vision and make it difficult to walk in the dark. Conduct a spot test on a small area of the face or neck with face paint to ensure there are no allergic reactions. Children in the dark should have reflective tape, glow sticks or a flashlight with them so it is easier for drivers to see them.\nThese tips are important safety measures. If these precautions are taken, then Halloween can still be a fun holiday for kids and adults to enjoy.",

The scheme enables old age income security for senior citizens through provision of assured pension/return linked to the subscription amount based on government guarantee to Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).\nThe scheme provides an assured return of 8% per annum payable monthly for 10 years. The differential return, i.e. the difference between return generated by LIC and the assured return of 8% per annum would be borne by Government of India as subsidy on an annual basis. The scheme is open for subscription till 3rd May 2018.\nPension is payable at the end of each period during the policy tenure of 10 years as per the frequency of monthly/quarterly/half-yearly/yearly as chosen by the subscriber at the time of purchase. Minimum purchase price under the scheme is Rs.1,50,000/- for a minimum pension of Rs. 1,000/- per month and the maximum purchase price is Rs.7,50,000/- for a maximum pension of Rs.5,000/- per month. The scheme is exempted from Goods and Services Tax.\nThe scheme is widely advertised in national and regional media and through brochures, hoardings, flex-boards and on the website of LIC.\nThis was stated by Shri Santosh Kumar Gangwar, Minister of State for Finance in written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha today.",

        "title": "Paying for Auto Repair",
        "raw_content": "Paying for Auto Repairs\nPaying for auto repairs can be painful, especially if the repair bill is high and you don't have the cash or your credit cards are maxed out. Some locally-owned neighborhood auto repair shops may extend you credit and allow you to pay off your repair bill over time. But most will not for fear they will never receive what you owe them. Consequently, if you drive an older car or a truck, sooner or later you will have to pay for repair bills.\nMost repair facilities expect payment in full when you pick up a vehicle after it has been serviced or repaired. Paying with cash is always appreciated (assuming you have the cash). In some cases paying with cash may allow you to negotiate a discount of up to 3 percent or more off your bill. Merchants have to pay credit card companies a fee for credit card transactions, so paying cash elimintes this expense and increases their profit margin. Small, privately-owned businesses also like to be paid in cash because (1) they get their money now, and (2) it leaves no paper trail for the tax man (or their spouse if their spouse keeps the books).\nIn lieu of cash, most repair facilities will accept a credit card (Visa, Master Card, etc.), or a personal check as long as the check is drawn on a local bank. For expensive repair bills over a certain dollar amount (say $500 to $1000 or more), the repair facility may require you to have your check \"pre-approved\" and/or to sign an agreement that makes you liable for collection fees and penalties if your check bounces.\nBut how do you pay your auto repair bill if you don't have the cash, or your credit cards are maxed out, or your checking account balance is embarrassing low?\nFinancing Auto Repairs\nSome repair facilities work with banks or finance corporations to provide financing for major auto repairs such as replacing an engine or transmission. Payment terms may range from six months up to three years depending on your credit rating. Interest rates though a consumer finance corporation will usually be much higher than though a bank, but finance corporations will often accept customers that might not qualify for a bank loan.\nOne relatively painless way to finance a major repair such as an engine or transmission is to pay for it via a home equity loan. If you have a home equity line of credit, all you have to do is write a check on your line of credit. The interest rate will be much less than that charged by any credit card, finance company or consumer bank loan (currently 6 to 8 percent for a home equity loan versus 12 to 24 percent or more charged by most credit card companies and commercial lenders). What's more, you typically have up to 5 years or more to pay back a home equity loan, and you can pay interest only if you are really in a pinch. If you are planning on selling your house in the near future, you can pay off the balance on your home equity loan from the proceeds of your home (assuming you have enough equity to do so).\nAnother source of funds is relatives (parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, etc.). If they have money sitting in a savings account, money market account or certificate of deposit that is earning only a few percent interest, offer to pay them double the interest they are getting now for a car repair loan. It will solve your problem, save you interest compared to any other means of financing, and if you are lucky, they might even feel sorry for you and forgive the loan or just give you the money.\nAvoid taking out a payday loan, or getting a \"juice loan\" from somebody on the street because these people charge outrageous interest rates, and may break your legs or worse if you fail to make a payment on time!\nBe creative. In some cases, a repair facility may be willing to swap services for a repair bill. For example, if the shop needs painting, you might be able to pay your repair bill by agreeing to paint the shop or to paint their outdoor signage. Or, if the shop owner has small kids, you might offer to trade babysitting to pay for your repair bill. Daycare in many large cities can cost up to $250 a week or more, which can offset a repair bill fairly quickly. Know how to make pizza? Maybe you could deliver some homemade pizzas to the shop several days a week to pay for your auto repair bill.\nWhat Happens If You Don't Pay Your Repair Bill?\nYou walk. Most repair facilities will NOT release your vehicle if you are unable to pay. They may give you some time to come up with the money (like giving you until your next payday to pay the bill, or giving you a few days to call your Uncle Louie to see if you can borrow some money from him). But for every day that you delay paying the bill, the shop may add on a \"storage fee\" of $10 to $30 or more a day.\nIf you have not come up with the money within 30 days, most shops will go to Small Claims Court and have a Mechanic's Lien placed on the title to your vehicle. This means you can't sell or trade your vehicle until the bill has been paid in full and the lien has been released.\nIf the repair bill is equal to or greater than the wholesale valve of the vehicle, they shop may attempt to sell your vehicle in an attempt to recover their costs in fixing it. This often happens when the vehicle owner simply abandons the vehicle after being unable to pay the repair bill.\nYou might think that driving a new car is the only way to avoid repair bills. Most new cars and trucks today come with a factory bumper-to-bumper warranty that covers almost everything for 3 years or 36,000 miles, or in some cases 4 years or 50,000 miles from the date of manufacture (not the date of purchase). Other parts such as the engine and transmission (powertrain) may be covered by an extended warranty either from the car dealer or from an aftermarket extended warranty provider. You can also purchase special extended warranties to cover most major items, too. Just remember that warranties always have fine print and lots of clauses, so be sure to read what is covered and what is not (and under what circumstances). Also be aware of the fact that supplemental warranties usually have an out-of-pocket deductible, and that some aftermarket warranty companies don't have a good track record for paying their claims promptly. Others just go out of business and leave their customers with a worthless warranty.\nIf you anticipate your vehicle will need major repairs in the near future, it might be less expensive to sell or trade it for another vehicle than to spend a lot on repairs. If the cost of the repairs exceeds the wholesale or trade-in value of the vehicle, the repairs may not be worth the expense unless you plan to keep the vehicle at least several more years.\nSome churches and charitable organizations offer discounted or even free auto repairs for people who otherwise might not be able to afford such repairs. But don't ask a repair shop to fix your car for free. They have employees and expenses to pay, too, and if they give away their business they will soon be out of business.\nIf a repair is not a highly technical or complicated repair that requires a lot of know-how or special tools, consider doing the repair work yourself to save money. Or, hire a relative, friend or neighbor who has some auto repair experience to do the repairs for you. The articles on this website can provide most of the how-to help that may be needed to fix many common problems.\nAuto Repair Links:\nRepairPal.com (Get a FREE estimate of how much a repair should cost)",

        "raw_content": "n Invitation from Jessica\nI\u2019m writing this note from outside Houston, Texas, this morning, thinking about the time we\u2019ll have together on Saturday, October 26. It\u2019s less than two weeks away!\nJoin us for this time of retreat and rejuvenation. We\u2019ll have a time to worship, sing, study the Bible together, look for the \u201cAha\u201d moments, and hear what God is saying to us.\nIn my first Bible study, Namesake, we learned about God\u2019s transforming love for us. The stories in Namesake are of ordinary people who encountered God and found themselves and even their names changed forever. Next Saturday, I want to bring you into a new project I'm working on for next year. Broken and Blessed traces the story of the Genesis family from Adam and Eve to Joseph. We\u2019ll see how God brings blessing from brokenness. Despite bad decisions, pain, and disappointment, God worked for good in every generation\u2014determined to transform those within and outside the family. As a woman juggling roles of mother, wife, pastor, and writer, this is a story that I want to explore! How can God use our own imperfect families to bring blessing in a hurting and broken world?\nI hope that you\u2019ll come and spend your morning with me and share your own stories with others at the event. We\u2019ll also be joined by the women of Thistle Farms who\u2019ll bring their wonderful hand-made bath and body products. Thistle Farms is a social enterprise of women who have survived brokenness and life on the streets and are creating new lives. What great partners for the day.\nP.S. Click here to register, there is a great goody bag for each woman registered.\nAbout Jessica LaGrone: Jessica LaGrone is an Associate Pastor at The Woodlands United Methodist Church in The Woodlands, Texas. An acclaimed preacher, teacher, and author, including her Bible study Namesake: When God Rewrites Your Story, Jessica enjoys speaking at retreats and events at churches throughout the United States. She and her husband, Jim, have two young children, Drew and Kate.\nAbout becoming an author this year, Jessica says, \u201cBecoming an author is a lifelong dream come true for me. In elementary school, when other kids were playing astronaut, I was playing author: folding stacks of paper in half to make a \u201cbook\u201d and then writing and illustrating stories on them. I\u2019ve written many things for ministry, but Namesake is the first published work that will be used by churches across the country. I can\u2019t tell you how excited I am about that! The very first lesson in Namesake is on Abraham and Sarah and how, even after God changed their names as a sign that He would to fulfill His promises to them, they had to wait and wait for those promises to be realized. When I first started telling friends about the upcoming publication of Namesake, a friend who had been a classmate of mine in seminary contacted me. We had been in a prayer group where we shared our deepest dreams about life and ministry and prayed over one another, but we now live across the country from each other. Her message to me said: \u201cDo you realize we prayed for this dream twelve years ago and God is now answering that prayer?\u201d It is amazing to think of God\u2019s faithfulness and His perfect timing.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "- General Talk (http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/forumdisplay.php?f=21)\n- - Raise the Accomplishment Bar? (http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/showthread.php?t=29122)\nJohn Isbell 01-31-2018 03:34 PM\nI'd like to take a moment to appreciate the idea of crowing like a moose.\nWhen I discovered this site, about a year and a half ago, less than half a dozen people had read anything I'd ever written. The idea that I was hob-nobbing with published poets was pretty thrilling, and still is tbh even though I've been lucky enough to have a little publishing success since. The Accomplished Members board seemed a magical place, (bear with me) an aspirational place. Maybe there is a bit of elitism in me, and I like to think it would be there whether I had had any success or not, but I'm kind of with Rick and Michael. I think.\nSusan McLean 01-31-2018 05:40 PM\nLet me phrase my argument a different way. I used to workshop all of my poems on Eratosphere, so I assumed that most people here who were interested in seeing a poem had already had an opportunity to do so earlier. Now I write a certain number of poems that I don't workshop here. If one of them gets accepted, I would still like to have people here know about it so that they can read the poem if they wish. Gaining readers for poems is one of the (few) perks of publishing online. I also go through periods in which I am too busy to read the poems of others when they are workshopped. Hearing that a poem has been published online gives me one more opportunity to connect with it. So I am all in favor of everyone letting everyone else know of each poem that gets published.\nIf we start setting standards of how \"important\" a publication needs to be before it can be mentioned here, there will be a lot of bad feelings on the part of many members, and the whole process will encourage snobbery, even if that is not the intended effect.\nIt sounds as if we lack a consensus opinion on this topic. That would make me leery of changing the status quo. Call me conservative.\nKate Benedict 01-31-2018 06:32 PM\nThere will be an answer. Let it be.\njohn savoie 01-31-2018 08:02 PM\ngoo-goo-g'joob\nRoger Slater 01-31-2018 08:27 PM\nI don't understand how people are supposed to decide whether their accomplishment is sufficiently grand to merit an announcement. If they want to share the news of a publication, I don't think they should be burdened with having to determine first whether it meets some elusive standard. Maybe someone should prepare a list of impressive venues that justify crowing so there will be no confusion?\nI like to be alerted when people I know have poems at Asses or NVN or wherever. I don't check these sites every day, or even every week, so I like to be given a heads-up when someone I know appears there.\nMatt Q 01-31-2018 10:04 PM\nWhat I do is choose which Accomplished Members posts I look at. Sometimes I choose to look at a post because it's reporting a prestigious achievement, sometimes I choose to look at a post because of who's posted it, sometimes I look just because it looks interesting. I find that using this method it's almost like I have my own personalised Accomplished Members forum that matches my wants and preferences.\nSeriously though, if someone's feeling pleased with, or even proud of, their publication and wants to share the news, why not? There's no obligation to congratulate everyone on everything they publish (at least, I hope there isn't, because I don't). And if you don't want to read about someone's poem appearing at a less-than-prestigious venue, the thread title will usually give you enough advance warning allow you to avoid clicking on the link.\nI'm back to say that I completely understand Roger and Susan's points as well, and the always reasonable Matt, and am therefore in a genuine quandary. I'll try to clarify my position, which may involve several questions so, again, bear with me. When I read Accomplishment Members I'm happy for every announcement. I'm frankly just happy to be part of this world, full stop. But. Presumably Rick's original post must have been motivated by some discernible change that he has seen on the sphere in its long history and as a relative newcomer to all this I'd like to understand. Is it that there has been a rise in the proliferation of poetry sites in the last decade, so that the possibilities for 'accomplishment' have become greater and therefore easier? Is it just easier to get published somewhere/anywhere now? How was AM different, say, 10 years ago and why? Or wasn't it? Is Rick just feeling grumpy?\nRoger asks how people are supposed to know whether their 'accomplishment' is going to be deemed sufficient enough to merit announcement. This is a good question, which could be asked in two different ways. It could be asked rhetorically, ironically, in the sense that it is designed to mock the idea that there should be any discrimination made between degrees of accomplishment. Or it could be asked as a genuine question, with the assumption that there is some kind of hierarchy of achievement. Is it wrong to acknowledge hierarchy of achievement? Of course, you can always do what Simon and Matt suggest and just self-filter the posts as you read them, internally differentiating between someone on a daily website and someone announcing a major publishing event with a glowing review from the New York Times. But I always, from my first day here, kind of liked the idea that there was a board on the sphere that had a whiff of something special about it. I liked it precisely because I felt it was a world beyond me. I think that's good motivation for an emerging writer. It took me a good while to realise there was a difference between Autumn Sky Daily and PN Review, say. I knew nothing, still don't know much. It can't be reasonably called snobbery can it, because poetry is a meritocracy. Mostly.\nI speak as someone with a grand total of two published poems (and a couple in the bag). These are my thoughts. Sorry if they seem over-earnest. I seem to have two modes: over-earnest or over-flippant.\nEdit: Practically, though, I doubt much can or should be done to change AM. Interesting discussion still.\nRick Mullin 01-31-2018 10:40 PM\nI think most of us read the dailies--New Verse News, Asses of Parnassus, E-Verse Radio, Autumn Sky Poetry. And it's always nice to see our people there. I check these sites, primarily looking to see what my friends are up to. I want to come to Accomplished Members, however, to see outstanding accomplishments. People receive high honor prizes, publish books... All the landings in, say, Lite on Line...? I dunno. There may be some founding fathers and mothers at Eratosphere who can explain what the thread was intended to showcase. Of course, these are the people who thought there should be a ~~Deep End~~.....",

        "raw_content": "Free Genealogy \u00bb Muskogee And Northeastern Oklahoma \u00bb Biography of James W. Brady\nBiography of James W. Brady\nUpdated: January 23, 2012 | Indiana, Oklahoma | 0 |\nNatural talent, acquired ability, determination and energy have brought James W. Brady to a foremost position in the ranks of the legal fraternity of Haskell, where since 1905 he has followed his profession. He has been called upon to fill various public positions of honor and trust and is now capably discharging the duties of city attorney, in which connection he is making a highly commendable record.\nA native of Indiana, he was born in Dubois county, May 22, 1871, of the marriage of James and Margaret (Payne) Brady, both of whom were born in Tennessee. In 1863 the father removed to Indiana, where he devoted his attention to agricultural pursuits, first cultivating rented land in Dubois County, after which he went across the line into Perry county.\nThere he entered a tract of government land, which he cleared and developed, and subsequently acquired additional holdings, becoming at length the owner of a valuable and well improved farm. He successfully continued his agricultural operations until his demise, which occurred in March l908 The mother 77 passed of the previous year.\nJames W. Brady pursued his studies in the grammar and high schools of Perry county, Indiana, after which he took up educational work, devoting seven years to teaching. In the meantime he had employed his leisure hours in the study of the principles of jurisprudence and subsequently entered the Indiana Law School at Indianapolis, from which he was graduated with the class of 1901. However, in 1897 he had been admitted to the bar and had practiced his profession for three years at Connelton, Indiana, previous to his graduation, following which he continued to engage in practice at that place until February, 1903, serving for a year of that period as county attorney of Perry County. He then went to Birdseye, Dubois county, Indiana, where he became connected with the gas and lease department of the Ohio Oil Company, with which he was identified until 1905, when he made his way to Haskell, Muskogee county, Oklahoma, where he has since resided. He continued to devote his entire time and attention to his profession until 1909, when he was appointed postmaster by President Taft, and continued to fill that office until 1913. He then resumed his legal work, in which he has since continued active, and with the passing years his practice has constantly grown in volume and importance. He is well read in the minutiae of the law, is able to base his arguments upon knowledge of and familiarity with precedents and to present a case upon its merits, never failing to recognize the main point at issue and never neglecting to give thorough preparation. He is now acting as city attorney and is rendering valuable service to the municipality, proving most thorough, conscientious and efficient in the performance of the duties of this important office. He owns valuable business property in Haskell and likewise has two highly cultivated and well improved farms in Muskogee county, one of which is situated a half mile east of the town. Upon this property he resides and when not occupied with his professional duties is active in its operation and development, being successful in both lines of work.\nMr. Brady has been married three times. In September, 1891, he wedded Miss Martha Cox, who died in March, 1893, leaving a son, John Herman, who is now a conductor on the Vandalia Rail road and resides in Indianapolis, Indiana. In November, 1894, Mr. Brady married Phoebe Hill, and they became the parents of three children: Clarence, who died at the age of five months; Lulu, the wife of Bruce V. Cox, of Haskell; and Marie, who married Claude Courtway, of Charleston, Missouri. The wife and mother passed away on the 1st of November, 1902, and in October, 1903, Mr. Brady was united in marriage to Belle Lamon, by whom he has two children: Eliza, sixteen years of age, who is attending school at Stillwater, this state; and Elisha, aged thirteen, who is a student in the Haskell high school. The son is specializing in the breeding of high grade Jersey hogs, while the daughter is raising Buff Rock and Dark Cornish chickens.\nMr. Brady is a member of the Presbyterian church, and in his political views he is a stanch republican and an active worker in the ranks of the party. He is deeply interested in one rates of one party. He pertains to the advancement and welfare of his community and for nine years served as a member of the Haskell school board, the cause of education finding in him a strong advocate. He is secretary of the local fair association, and his fraternal connections are with the Modern Woodmen of America, the Knights of Pythias and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, his membership being with the canton it the last named organization. He has demonstrated that he possesses exceptional qualifications as a lawyer and has won distinction in his chosen calling, while in every relation of life he measures up to the highest standards of manhood and citizenship.\nBirdseye Indiana, Connelton Indiana, Dubois County IN, Haskell Oklahoma, Indianapolis Indiana, Marion County IN, Muskogee County OK, Perry County IN,\nPreviousBiography of Thomas K.

        "title": "Meet Cheddar Man: First modern Britons had dark skin and blue eyes - Anchorage Daily News",
        "raw_content": "Author: Jennifer Hassan, The Washington Post\nA likeness of \u201cCheddar Man,\u201d Britain\u2019s oldest known near-complete human skeleton, is seen at the Natural History Museum. Tom Barnes/Channel 4 handout via REUTERS\nHe lived more than 10,000 years ago, had brown hair, blue eyes and \"dark to black\" skin. To the surprise of many, he is believed to have been the first modern Briton.\nA new project from London's Natural History Museum and University College London has revealed groundbreaking DNA results that give a much clearer image of early British inhabitants. Cheddar Man's skeleton was discovered in 1903 in Gough's Cave, located in Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, England. It is thought that the cool temperature in the cave helped to preserve the skeleton's valuable DNA.\n\"If the body was deposited in a good environment, where there was a cool and constant temperature, then the petrous bone is a good place to find useful ancient DNA,\" said the Natural History Museum's Selina Brace, who specializes in the study of ancient DNA. Scientists obtained DNA from Cheddar Man by drilling a 2-millimeter hole in his skull and extracting bone powder.\nInitially, it was assumed that the man, who died in his 20s, had pale skin, but new analysis and facial reconstruction have revealed quite the opposite. It is now believed that Cheddar Man's ancestors arrived in Britain via the Middle East after leaving Africa.\n\"Cheddar Man is special because he represents the population occupying Europe at the time,\" said Tom Booth, a bio-archaeologist at the museum. \"They had dark skin, and most of them had pigmented eyes, either blue or green.\" Data and software used in forensics gave Booth and the team a clearer understanding of Cheddar Man's skin pigmentation and how dark it was.\n\"Cheddar Man's skeleton revealed damage to the front of the skull, which led us to believe he had a violent death. But when we looked again, it appeared likely that the damage occurred since being dug up,\" Booth explained. \"It's quite hard to figure out from the bones how he died, as most illnesses don't leave a trace on human remains.\"\nUsing 3-D printing, Adrie and Alfons Kennis were able to bring Cheddar Man to life. The model took several months to build and is described as \"truly unique.\" Booth described their work as \"amazing\" and said the two brothers are skilled \"wizards\" who were able to bring years of hard work and research to life.\nExperts say the ancestor was a Mesolithic hunter-gatherer who would have spent his days carving tools, fishing and hunting animals. It is believed that Cheddar Man is related to 1 in 10 people living across the United Kingdom today. (Booth also said that, ironically, Cheddar Man was lactose intolerant.)\n\"Cheddar Man existed before farming had spread to Britain. By looking, we can tell he would have been unable to digest raw milk,\" Booth said.\nBooth, who worked on the project for almost four years, said the Cheddar Man story is far from over. \"The great thing is, because he's so well preserved, we'll be able to get more and more data from Cheddar Man all the time,\" he said.\nIn the future, Booth said, \"we'll be seeking more information on Cheddar's diet, lifestyle and taking a look at common diseases from this time period.\"\n\"We don't have any other complete skeletons from this period,\" he said. \"They're usually in bits and pieces. Therefore, we're determined to use Cheddar to find out as much as we can. He'll definitely leave a great legacy.\"\nCheddar Man's complete skeleton has been lent to the museum and is currently on display.",

        "raw_content": "\"My talking is bumpy.\"\n\"The words get stuck.\"\n\"My tongue stumbles.\"\n\"My brain goes faster than my mouth.\"\nThese are some of the things that kids say when they describe how it feels to stutter. In other words, they know what they want to say, but the words just don't come out smoothly.\nKids who stutter will repeat a word or a sound or drag out part of a word. Some kids may have problems with certain sounds. For instance, \"Ss\" and \"Zs\" are tough for a kid who has a lisp.\nSomeone who lisps says the \"th\" sound when they mean to use an \"s\" or \"z\" sound. Other kids have trouble only with words that have \"Rs\" in them.\nBut whatever the speech problem, help is available.\nWhat Are Stuttering and Speech Problems?\nAs human beings, we have the special ability to share our thoughts by talking. We start by forming a thought in our brains. In the brain, this thought is changed into a code we've learned called language. Once the thought is coded into language, the brain sends a message to the muscles that control speech, telling them to move and make the right sounds come out. Then the mouth, face, neck, tongue, and throat muscles move to form words.\nSometimes this process doesn't work perfectly, though. There might be an interruption or break in the flow of speech. This interruption is called a dysfluency (say: dis-FLOO-en-see).\nNow and then, everyone has trouble getting words out. It's normal to stumble over a word or two every once in a while. Dysfluency becomes a speech problem, though, when it gets in the way of everyday talking and is noticeable to other people. A person may have a tough time getting thoughts out. It also can cause a lot of embarrassment or frustration.\nWhy Do Kids Have Speech Problems?\nDoctors and scientists aren't completely sure why talking is difficult for some kids. But most believe speech difficulties occur because there's a problem with the way the brain's messages interact with the muscles and body parts needed for speaking.\nMany doctors and scientists believe that stuttering may be genetic (say: juh-NEH-tik). This means that a characteristic \u2014 in this case, dysfluency \u2014 is passed on in the genes. Kids who stutter are three times more likely to have a close family member who also stutters. So, if you stutter, you may have a grandmother, parent, or brother or sister who stutters or once did.\nHow Are Speech Problems Diagnosed?\nYour regular doctor might refer you to a speech and language therapist or you might go to one directly. Sometimes, the therapist, also called a speech and language pathologist (say: pah-THOL-uh-jist), will come right to your school to meet with you. The therapist may ask you to read out loud, pronounce some words, or do some talking.\nYou might also have a hearing test with an audiologist (say: aw-dee-OL-uh-jist), a specialist who diagnoses hearing problems. Why would you need to take a hearing test? Because if you can't hear very well, you may have trouble hearing yourself and pronouncing words properly.\nHow Are Stuttering or Other Speech Problems Treated?\nAfter you've seen the speech and language therapist, he or she will go over the results of the tests with you and one or both of your parents. The tests may show that you need speech therapy \u2014 which are sessions when you can work on your speech and practice your skills. Your therapy session could be just you and the therapist or you might have a session with a group of kids.\nIn addition to speech therapy sessions, it's important for you to spend time practicing your skills on your own. The therapist can give you exercises that you can do at home. Practicing will improve your skills and help with your everyday talking. You'll discover easier or different ways of producing sounds so you can speak more clearly.\nAt first, these skills may seem strange or even feel a little weird. But give it some time. Soon, if you work at it, you'll notice improvement and start to feel more confident in your speaking. You won't be perfect at it, but that's OK. No one talks perfectly 100% of the time.\nLiving With a Speech Problem\nIt can be embarrassing to have a speech problem and it may make you feel sad or shy. You might even decide it would be easier if you just didn't talk too much.\nBut as with other kinds of problems, ignoring speech difficulties won't make them go away. Instead of hiding a lisp or stutter, be open about the way you talk and the steps you're taking to improve your speech. Explain the situation to friends and teachers.\nUnfortunately, living with a speech problem may also mean learning how to deal with teasing. It really hurts when someone makes fun of you for something you can't completely control, like the way you talk.\nTurn to your parents, friends, and teachers for support. If someone makes fun of you, simply say you have a speech problem and you're working on correcting it. If the teasing persists, ask an adult for help in resolving the problem.\nIf you don't have a speech problem, but you know someone who does, try to be a friend. Be patient while your friend finishes a thought, and don't be afraid to say (politely) that you didn't understand what he or she said and could they please say it again.\nIf you yourself have a speech problem, be patient with yourself. Most kids with speech problems will get better at talking, especially if you practice, practice, practice.\nReviewed by: Amy Nelson, MA, CCC-SLP",

        "raw_content": "A-List No. 4: Hoover's Darrell Williams goes in-depth on recruitment by Malzahn, Saban\nWesley Sinor | wsinor@al.com By Wesley Sinor | wsinor@al.com AL.com\non August 13, 2014 at 7:13 AM, updated August 21, 2014 at 12:13 PM\nThis story is part of the 2015 edition of the AL.com A-List, our list of the top 15 senior football players in the state of Alabama.\nHOOVER, Alabama -- Few high school football players can say they've been invited into the inner sanctums of two of the best coaches in the nation. Hoover's Darrell Williams is such a rare star.\nThe 6-foot-3, 226-pound linebacker, No. 4 on AL.com's 2015 A-List of the top seniors in the state, was wooed heavily by both Auburn and Alabama and thus had the opportunity to see Gus Malzahn and Nick Saban in ways the rest us do not.\n\"Coach Saban is hailed like a celebrity, and on TV he's straight and all-business,\" Williams says. \"Growing up an Alabama fan, my first time in his office, I thought I was dreaming. He has trophies and stuff everywhere. It's decorated, you can dim the lights however you want them and he has a remote for everything. He's like a mini-president.\n\"We sat down, he picked up the remote, pressed a button and the door closed by itself. I wanted to listen to what he was saying, but I couldn't. I was just sitting there saying 'Yes sir, no sir.'\"\nWilliams' visit with Malzahn was a bit different.\n\"Malzahn is a little more laid back, but I was still up there in terms of being happy,\" he says. \"I was nervous in his office too. It was decorated like everyone else's, but more mellow. After the first five minutes, you're chilling and having a good time. He has a nice way of welcoming you.\n\"He was talking about how he was going to build the program back up and how he was going to do it the right way. Game by game, they were finding ways to win and he was doing everything he said he was going to do. That's a coach you want to play for.\"\nMalzahn should be welcoming Williams to the Plains next fall as a member of Auburn's 2015 class. He committed in May after a whirlwind recruitment that included offers from Florida State, Mississippi State, Oklahoma and Tennessee - as well as Alabama.\nSome schools are still trying to sway him. Williams says he remains committed to the Tigers, but he's listening.\n\"I'm being recruited,\" he says. \"Even if I didn't commit to Auburn at that time, they were still my No. 1. Committing early might be a good thing, but I feel like I should have waited a little bit longer.\"\nIt didn't take Williams very long to show a knack for football. The youngest child born to Sherry Wells and Darrell Williams Sr., \"D.J.\" showed signs of being a linebacker quite early.\n\"He was loving (football) before he realized it, at the age of 3 or 4,\" Wells says. \"He would do things and look like a linebacker -- the way he would run into you when he got mad. He'd put his arm around my legs. I remember his dad would build the crates and he'd run into them.\"\n\"It's just in my blood to play sports,\" Williams says. \"Out of life, in everything I do, football is just somewhere else I can go and have fun. I can get away from everything.\"\nBorn in Meridian, Miss., Williams and his mother moved to Hoover when he was seven years old and received his first exposure to the football-crazed city and state. He recalls flipping his Iron Bowl allegiances back and forth multiple times in elementary school.\n\"I was switching a lot, but as I got older I became an Alabama fan,\" he said.\nWilliams records a tackle in the 2013 AHSAA Class 6A state championship against Auburn. (File)\nTURNING HEADS ON THE GRIDIRON\nWilliams dreamed of playing for the Hoover Bucs on Friday nights --- and it didn't take long for the varsity coaches to catch wind of his potential.\n\"I've known Darrell since he was little,\" said Hoover head coach Josh Niblett. \"I got to watch him develop not only as a football player, but as a young man. I feel like he's always been a leader and a good kid. He's always been driven and wanted to seek greatness, and that's what gives him an opportunity. He's just a great kid with a great personality and he understands right from wrong.\"\nWilliams got the chance to prove himself at the varsity level on Sept. 21, 2012, after a starting linebacker was dismissed from the team.\n\"We had Sunday practice and that day they told me I was going to start that week,\" Williams recalls, saying he \"went off,\" in the 55-7 win, gaining at least 10 tackles. \"One of my highlights was when I hit (Alabama signee) Bo Scarbrough and made him fumble and one of our players returned it for a touchdown.\"\nWells remembers her son's tunnel-vision focus that week.\n\"I tried to say 'Hi' to him before the game and he just gave me the hand,\" she says. \"That was the night he showed me who he was and who he would become in the future.\"\nAlabama's Nick Saban and Auburn's Gus Malzahn have both recruited Williams heavily in 2014. (File)\nWilliams' name soon began to circulate in recruiting circles. Mississippi State was the first school to offer, and Auburn and Alabama shortly followed suit.\nLast summer, Williams camped at Auburn for the first time and hit it off with Malzahn, who extended an offer that fall. Alabama offered Williams and two of his teammates, Bradrick Shaw and Christian Bell, all at once during a Junior Day visit. What followed the offers, however, Williams describes as \"kind of tricky.\"\n\"They offered me, then I went up there for A-Day and I was about to commit, but Nick Saban had to go. (Alabama offensive line) Coach (Mario) Cristobal called me and said I had to go to their camp first. I hadn't planned on going to any camps other than Rivals or Nike camps.\n\"Coaches were telling me I needed to find a school and try to commit early. Alabama wanted to see me at camp and Auburn was showing me a lot of love. So I committed to Auburn on a Tuesday and then that Wednesday (defensive coordinator Kirby) Smart came to my practice with a camera and taped me doing drills and scrimmaging. He took the video back to Alabama and all the coaches watched it. Coach Saban called me and said, 'Forget the camp, I want you to come to Alabama.'\"\nAccording to Williams, Saban had originally wanted to see if he could play inside linebacker, because the defensive scheme he was in at Hoover was different than what the Crimson Tide runs. The Tide coach could have just asked Niblett.\n\"The length he has gives him a chance to play inside or outside, or whatever they need him to do,\" the Hoover coach says. \"He's hybrid guy who can do both. He's a student of the game.\"\nNevertheless, Williams says Saban apologized and took the blame for the confusion. Wells believes her son handled the situation with maturity.\n\"(Darrell) completely understood,\" she says, \"and didn't get angry or anything.\"\nLooking back, Williams remembers the pressure he was under to make a commitment as spots were filling up quickly.\n\"I think everything happens for a reason,\" he said. \"I don't regret anything.\"\nWilliams made his verbal commitment to Auburn in April. (247Sports)\nWith his commitment in the rear-view mirror, Williams is focused on his final season at Hoover. The Bucs are coming off back-to-back state championships and have won 30 consecutive games. He maintains a close relationship with his head coach and is expected to anchor the defense in 2014.\n\"(Niblett's) a real Christian man,\" Williams says. \"He talks to me every day. He wants me to be better than I ever have been this year and wants me to step up and be a leader.\"\nWells says she will miss Niblett and the rest of the Hoover coaches, but is looking forward to what her son can accomplish in the sport.\n\"I know he'll only be a couple hours away,\" she says. \"But I know he's going to be OK because of the maturity level he's carrying now. I know Coach Malzahn will take care of him.\"",

        "raw_content": "Email a copy of \"Trump\u2019s Embassy Move Proved Abbas Doesn\u2019t Want Peace\" to a friend\nTrump\u2019s Embassy Move Proved Abbas Doesn\u2019t Want Peace\nJNS.org \u2013 Earlier this month, more than 10,000 Israelis turned out for demonstrations in Tel Aviv against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Their purpose was to draw attention to corruption charges lodged against the prime minister. If Netanyahu ends up being charged with a crime it will almost certainly mean that his fourth \u2014 and third consecutive \u2014 term in office will be his last.\nOr at least that\u2019s what his opponents are hoping. If Netanyahu does survive, the events of the last three weeks are making it look like the prime minister, or whoever succeeds him as head of the Likud party and the coalition that it leads, is likely to emerge as the victor in the next Israeli election.\nWith Palestinians expressing \u201crage\u201d about President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel\u2019s capital, it appears that security and the peace process \u2014 rather than corruption or the plight of the middle class \u2014 is what will continue to determine the outcome of elections in the Jewish state. And so long as that is true, those American Jews who think that Israel should be pressured into making concessions, need to understand the impact of Trump\u2019s move \u2014 and the Palestinian reaction to it \u2014 on the Israeli public.\nTrump\u2019s decision provoked some curious reactions among American Jews, the vast majority of whom are fervently opposed to his administration. For some leaders of Reform Judaism, they opposed his decision. Their position \u2014 and that of many on the Jewish left \u2014 was that nothing Trump did could possibly be good for the Jews. That may make sense to partisan Democrats, but it also puts them out of touch with the vast majority of Israelis, who embraced the president\u2019s announcement.\nYet the most important reaction to Trump came from the Palestinian Authority (PA) and its leader, Mahmoud Abbas.\nNo one expected the Palestinians to welcome Trump\u2019s stand. But if Abbas were sincere about pursuing a two-state solution, he would have treated Trump\u2019s carefully calibrated statement as a victory rather than a defeat.\nTrump did not endorse a united Jerusalem or preclude support for two states \u2014 or even a re-partition of the city. Abbas could have used this as a jumping-off point for an effort to persuade the US to endorse a Palestinian capital in part of Jerusalem, which would have strengthened his position in negotiations that Trump hopes to restart.\nBut instead, Abbas doubled down on the same antisemitic denial of Jewish history that has characterized Palestinian discourse for the last century.\nIn a speech to an Islamic conference held in Turkey to protest Trump\u2019s statement, Abbas claimed that only Muslims and Christians had any rights to the holy places in Jerusalem. Abbas\u2019 hateful rhetoric, and the PA\u2019s resolve to use its broadcast and print media to incite violence against Israelis in the wake of Trump\u2019s speech, may be what Abbas needs to do to survive against his Hamas rivals. But it is also confirming the solid consensus of opinion in Israel across the political spectrum that views Abbas and the PA as opponents of peace, rather than potential peace partners \u2014 as Israel\u2019s critics assert.\nBy trying to start another intifada, and by doubling down on the notion that Israel has no rights in Jerusalem, Abbas has once again done something for Netanyahu that the prime minister could not achieve on his own. He has validated the Israeli right\u2019s belief that, as bad as it is, the status quo is preferable than replicating Ariel Sharon\u2019s 2005 withdrawal from Gaza.\nWhile some American Jews still believe that Israel must be pressured to make territorial withdrawals for the sake of peace, Abbas\u2019 conduct has convinced most Israelis that such a policy would be insane. The fact that Netanyahu\u2019s main rivals are more or less echoing his stands demonstrates that there is very little appetite in Israel for giving up more territory under the current circumstances. It also highlights the fact that so long as the alternatives to the Likud have nothing better to offer Israelis, Likud is likely to stay in power.\nWhat Trump did on Jerusalem gratified Israelis. But it also gave Abbas the opportunity to demonstrate to voters in the Jewish state that there is no viable alternative to Netanyahu\u2019s policies. That\u2019s something that American Jewish critics of Trump and Israel would be foolish to ignore.\nJonathan S. Tobin is the editor-in-chief of JNS. Follow him on Twitter at: @jonathans_tobin.",

The charges are based on colonial-era law and carry jail terms of up to seven years.\nSociology professor Chan Kin-man, 59, law professor Benny Tai, 54, and Baptist minister Chu Yiu-ming, 74, founded the \"Occupy Central\" movement in 2013 and joined with the student-led Umbrella Movement which brought parts of the semi-autonomous city to a standstill for months, calling for free elections for the city's leader.\nThe activists were welcomed outside the court by hundreds of supporters shouting: \"Peaceful resistance! I wanted real universal suffrage!\"\nPrepared for jail\nThe Occupy Central trio urged people to join what became known as the Umbrella Movement as protesters used umbrellas to shield themselves from tear gas and pepper spray.\nThe court was shown video clips by the prosecution on Monday afternoon, which included a press conference from 2013 in which the trio explained the Occupy Central movement.\nIn one clip, Tai said the success of the movement \"hinges on civic awakening\" but added that civil disobedience must be \"non-violent\".\nIn an op-ed for the New York Times on Monday, Tai said there had been an \"onslaught against free speech\" in Hong Kong in recent years.\nHis comments came after Chan said the accused would become stronger through imprisonment at a farewell talk on November 14 night to a full house of more than 600 people at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, where he has been teaching for over two decades.\nHe told the AFP news agency that he had prepared for the physical and mental challenges of possible jail time by taking up marathon running.\nIt allows far greater civil liberties than on the Chinese mainland, but there are growing fears those freedoms are eroding.\nBefore the trial, rights groups had urged authorities to drop what Amnesty International called the \"chilling prosecution\" of the nine activists, a group that includes legislators, student leaders and pro-democracy party campaigners.\nThe Umbrella Movement failed to win reform and since then activists have been prosecuted, with some being jailed [Bobby Yip/Reuters]",

Adam Perkins, a former lifeguard, used his first aid training to help set up a makeshift triage as well as assisting fire fighters and emergency workers.\nHe said he spent most of his first day at Ground Zero cleaning the eyes of the fire fighters as they went back and forth in search of survivors.\u201dThat was a big problem, dust was tearing their eyes apart,\u201d Perkins said. Later, acting as a runner between triage units and morgues, Perkins passed on messages between emergency officials before working on \u2018bucket brigade\u2019 to help remove rubble.\nThen while he was helping fire fighters remove debris, a hole opened up and Perkins, with a smaller frame than the fire fighters, was the obvious choice to go in to search for survivors.\u201dI took my helmet off and I crawled in,\u201d he said. Ten years later, Perkins says sometimes it feels like yesterday, \u201cThen sometimes it doesn\u2019t seem real at all.\u201d\nHe now lives in Bullcreek, Western Australia. Poor first aid better than none, experts say First aid companies today are more aware than ever of the near-total lack of first aid training among the general public, with many victims left lying where they fall until professional help arrives. Typically, there will be passers-by and others who could help, but lack of knowledge and lack of confidence means nothing is done.\u201d At a bare minimum, victims should be rolled onto their side, into the recovery position,\u201d one First Aider says. \u201cNever leave someone lying face down.\u201d\nExperts also say it\u2019s better to provide \u2018poor\u2019 CPR than none at all.

        "title": "Tai-Chi, Yoga and Exercise",
        "raw_content": "Yao et al (2008) developed a Tai-Chi exercise programme for people with dementia living in the community within Michigan (USA), and undertook a piece of research to investigate peoples\u2019 experiences of taking part in the programme. The authors emphasize that people with dementia can be at an increased risk of falls for a number of factors associated with the disease (NHS Inform 2017). Yao et al\u2019s (2008) research aimed to ascertain if participation in Tai-Chi has the potential to reduce the risk of falls in people with dementia, and whether or not participants experienced any changes in their emotional or psychological well-being as a result of taking part in tai-chi.\nIn a literature search completed prior to the development of the program, Yao et al (2008) identified the Sticky Hands Tai Chi teaching method as an effective approach to delivering a Tai Chi class to group consisting of people with dementia and their carers. Nyman (2015) explains that the Sticky Hands technique works well as it does not place high demands on a person to memorise specific tai-chi movements; the person with dementia maintains palm-to-palm contact with their partner allowing them to follow all their movements with ease. Yao et al\u2019s (2008) research involved participants taking part in a sixteen week program of tai-chi; this consisted of classes led by trainers twice per week for four weeks and participants completing exercises at home three times per week for the remaining twelve weeks. The sample consisted of 20 participants; 10 people with dementia and 10 carers, 9 of whom were family members and one was a paid carer (Yao et al 2008). The authors also note that the caregivers included had no physical or cognitive impairments (Yao et al 2008).\nData was collected using both standardized and non-standardized methods (Yao et al 2008). A standardized measure was used to determine any affect that participation had on reducing participants\u2019 falls risk, this was achieved by completing Timed Up and Go (TUG) tests with participants prior to commencement of the program, again following the completion of the four weeks of trainer-led group classes, and finally at the end of the 16 week program of exercises at home (Yao et al 2008). Jones (2009) explains that the TUG test involves participants being asked to stand from a chair, walk to a point 3m away, turn and return to the chair. This activity is timed, and a result determining the person\u2019s risk of falling is calculated based on the person\u2019s age, frailty and length of time taken to fully complete the task (Jones 2009). Yao et al (2008) found that participants\u2019 TUG test times improved by an average of 16% after participation in the four weeks of group classes. Interestingly however, the authors observed a reduction in average TUG test times when the test was re-administered following the 16 week at-home tai-chi program, indicating that the physical benefits were higher when participants took part in tai-chi in a group setting.\nInformation gathered during exit interviews with carer participants indicates that the group setting helped to motivate members to participate and were overall perceived to be more enjoyable (Yao et al 2008), this may be linked to the positive TUG results observed at the end of the group sessions. Information gathered during exit interviews also highlighted that participants found that taking part in the tai chi program enabled them to feel close to one another and provided an opportunity to take part in a meaningful activity together, rather than as a carer facilitating activity for the person with dementia (Yao et al 2008). The exit interview data suggests that the use of the Sticky Hands tai-chi teaching method positively contributed to enabling all the participants to take part, and allowed for a supportive and meaningful experience for all involved (Yao et al 2008).\nSherrington et al (2008) completed a large scale piece of research around people with dementia taking part in different types of exercise, and the effect that this had on falls. Sherrington et al\u2019s (2008) work involved 9,603 participants taking part in 44 trials and the findings are similar Yao et al\u2019s (2008) conclusions in that participants\u2019 rate of falls fell by 17% when they took part in balance based exercise such as tai chi and yoga. Furthermore, Sherrington et al (2008) found that fall rates reduced by 42% when participants took part in regular balance based exercise programs that did not focus on walking.\nBonura and Tenenbaum (2014) undertook a randomized control trial with a group of older adults aged between 65-92 years that aimed to establish if there was any link between participation in yoga and improvement in psychological health. The study was completed over a six week period, during which time 98 participants were split into three groups: one group who took part in chair-based yoga, one group taking part in chair-based exercise and a final group who took part in no new exercise. Bonura and Tenenbaum (2014) completed a number of standardized assessments (State Anger Expression Inventory, State Anxiety Inventory, Geriatric Depression Scale, Lawton\u2019s PGC Morale Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scales, and Self- Control Schedule) with research participants prior to, during and one month following the completion of the intervention. It was concluded that the individuals who took part in the chair based yoga program had improved psychological health in comparison to the group taking part in chair exercise, and the group who took part in no new exercise. (Bonura and Tenenbaum 2014).\nThe authors write that it is important to note that the use of yoga as a therapeutic intervention for people with dementia will not reverse any cognitive decline that has already occurred (Bonura and Tenenbaum 2014). Furthermore, Bonura and Tenenbaum (2014) write that there is a fairly limited amount of robust research that has been completed around the use of yoga as a therapeutic intervention. However, they go onto discuss that the small amount of research that has been published positively attributes participation in yoga to improved mood and self-efficacy and reduced anxiety in people with dementia (Bonura and Tenenbaum 2014). Nevertheless, Bonura and Tenenbaum (2014) also highlight the argument that an alternative-therapies based intervention cannot replace traditional medical treatments for symptoms of low mood and depression associated with dementia. The authors refer to a study completed by Janakirmaiah (2000) who found that participation in yoga was a less effective treatment for depression than electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Conversely, Janakirmaiah\u2019s (2000) research also found participation in yoga as an early intervention to treat symptoms of depression in dementia to be equally as effective as pharmaceutical interventions.\nFollowing a detailed literature review, Wu et al (2014) concluded that the development of a program that combined bite-sized elements of tai-chi, yoga, Feldenkrais and dance movement therapy would allow people with dementia to access the positive outcomes associated with each activity, without the physical or cognitive demands required to participate in a session dedicated entirely to one of the four. This was a study based at a day centre for people with dementia living in the local community of an area in San Francisco, USA and there were 11 participants (Wu et al 2014). It should be noted that the small sample size could have a negative impact on the results of the study, as Aveyard (2014) explains, it can be argued that limiting the geographical area and background of participants included in a study may result in research findings that are not applicable or relevant to a wider range of people. The participants of Wu et al\u2019s (2014) research were predominantly white females (8/11 fell into this category), and all attendees of the same day centre, which should be kept in mind when considering the conclusions made by the authors. However, the results are still useful for the purpose of this literature review given that the study focuses on participation in exercise by people with dementia (Wu et al 2014).\nWu et al (2014) identified three themes which were used to guide the development and identify the goals of the project: \u201c\u2019Functional changes: body awareness and movement memory\u2019, \u2018Emotional changes: personal meaning and stories\u2019 and \u2018Social changes: interpersonal relationships\u2019\u201d (Wu et al 2014, p 357).\nTo address the first theme of, \u201cbody awareness and movement memory\u201d (Wu et al 2014, p357), the researchers included routine and repeated exercises during each session. Participants were also encouraged to spend time during each class reflecting on how each movement made different parts of their body feel, through the use of touch and mindfulness (Wu et al 2014). The theme \u201cpersonal meanings and stories\u201d (Wu et al 2014, p 357) was included by the researchers working to ensure that the sessions were personalized for the members of the group. This was achieved through the completion of initial telephone interviews with participants\u2019 family or carers to establish their interests, likes and dislikes (Wu et al 2014). Wu et al (2014) also identified favourite pieces of music for each participant and included these during sessions. These actions allowed the researchers to deliver sessions that were designed to be personal and meaningful for each member of the group. The researchers also aimed to create a positive, relaxed and peaceful environment during the classes to allow for all members to feel comfortable taking part (Wu et al 2014). Sessions were planned in such a way that encouraged this calm and open environment; the facilitators would not put any pressure on group members or try to correct any mistakes (Wu et al 2014). In addition, participants were allowed the time to share any feelings or personal stories openly during the sessions (Wu et al 2014). The final theme, \u201cinterpersonal relationships\u201d (Wu et al 2014, p357) was incorporated into the classes through including simple group games that encouraged members to interact and work together. This allowed for the participants to build relationships and was conducive to creating a supportive environment during the sessions (Wu et al 2014).\nThe researchers collected and analysed data using the constant comparative method (Wu et al 2014) which Kolb (2012) explains is a qualitative approach involving obtaining information via observation, interviews and written feedback which is then coded and translated into theory. On completion of the coding process, Wu et al (2014) concluded that participation in the exercise program resulted in improved mood and overall well-being experienced by the people with dementia who took part.\nIt is important to note that the authors state more research is required to further assess the effectiveness of the exercise program, given the small sample size and qualitative research approach (Wu et al 2014).\nTo conclude, research indicates that participation in yoga, tai-chi and exercise can be of benefit to people with dementia (Yao et al 2008, Bonura and Tenenbaum 2014 and Wu et al 2014). Any exercise-based intervention must be adapted appropriately to allow for all to participate regardless of their cognitive or physical ability (Wu et al 2014). Taking part in exercise by people with dementia can improve well-being, encourage social participation (Bonura and Tenenbaum 2014) and has the potential to reduce the risk of falls (Yao et al 2008).",

        "title": "How To Get Rid Of Your Belly Using EGGS - Best Fitness Tips",
        "raw_content": "Its not uncommon for a lot of women to spend hours and hours at the gym, spending copious amounts of energy and sweat only to find that they just can\u2019t get rid of their belly fat. Exercise is one thing, but if you want to really see quick results then you need to eat foods that are low in calories and even better, to eat foods that burn belly fat.\nThe general idea is that if you want to get rid of your belly, then typically you want to be making sure that you are including plenty of protein in your diet because the body burns more calories when it\u2019s digesting proteins, than most other foods.\nSo What Foods Contain Protein?\nWell one of the best places to start are with eggs. In the past I\u2019ve come to learn that people are generally confused as to whether eggs are healthy or not, I certainly believed that they were and stayed away where possible. The truth is that there are two sides to it and eggs are good and bad.\nEggs are high in protein and essential for the formation of strong muscles. If you\u2019re working out a lot then eggs should definitely be on your list. It\u2019s with this in mind that eggs are considered to be essential. Furthermore high content of protein forces the body to burn a lot of calories when it breaks these proteins down. Not only are eggs high in protein but they contain enough Vitamin B12, which scientific studies show can burn belly fat.\nAvoid The Yolk\nFirstly eggs are high in cholesterol, therefore it is very easy to go over your recommended intake of cholesterol per day just by eating more than one egg in a 24 hour period. But here\u2019s the real part on how we can eat eggs and make sure we only get the goodness. All the egg\u2019s cholesterol is within the yolk whilst the protein is in the egg white. If you\u2019re a person who loves watching their diet then you may have heard some experts telling you to only eat egg whites and ditch the yolk. This is solely to avoid absorbing too much cholesterol. Without the egg yolk, it should be fine to eat more than one egg a day.\nThere are arguments that removing the yolk may not be necessary at all. You see, eggs contain a particular type of cholesterol called \u2018dietary cholesterol\u2019 which many believe does not raise or in any way effect the cholesterol levels in our bodies. Rather, it\u2019s the type of cholesterol found in animal fats and saturated oils that are the main culprit.\nNonetheless it is general practice to remove the egg yolk so it\u2019s up to you what you want to believe. Mike Geary wrote an interesting article on how egg yolks are infact the most healthiest part of the egg. You can see that article here.\nWith this information you can now add eggs into your daily diet if you want to burn fat. But be sure to add a sound exercise program to your new found diet to begin to burn fat even more efficiently.",

        "raw_content": "Cities optimistic about financial conditions\nAccording to the National League of Cities, most of America's urban centers were better able to meet their financial needs this year compared to last.\nOverall, cities are optimistic about fiscal conditions, according to a report from the National League of Cities (NLC).\nThe City Fiscal Conditions Report 2014 found that urban finance officers report that economic conditions are improving. However, fiscal health has not yet returned to pre-recession levels in many cities.\nThe report had three main findings:\nFirst, more city finance officers reported improved conditions in 2014 than in the 29-year history of the survey; 80 percent of respondents reported their cities were better able to meet their financial needs in 2014 compared to 2013.\nSecond, for the first time since 2008, a majority of cities are reporting increases in the size of their workforces.\nThird, general fund revenues are expected to stagnate as 2014 comes to a close, and expenditures are projected to increase slightly.\nWhile the outlook is generally positive, many financial factors continue to plague urban centers, according to the report. The factors respondents identified as having the most negative impact include:\nInfrastructure needs (52 percent of respondents)\nCost of health benefits (51 percent)\nCost of retiree pensions (47 percent)\nEmployee wages and salaries (38 percent)\nPublic safety needs (33 percent)\nTo deal with these increases and boost revenue, cities employed various methods. Some of the most common tactics included increasing the amount of fees charged for services, increasing property taxes and increasing sales, income or other taxes.\nLooking beyond 2014, the NLC predicts a number of factors that will be key to the financial well-being of cities. These include:\nLow numbers of high-paying jobs. Although employment is on the rise nationally, the fast growth of low-wage jobs will impact tax bases.\nChanging patterns of property tax collection. Although the real estate market has rebounded, shifts in the market, including an increased number of renters, may impact cities\u2019 bottom lines.\nE-commerce.

        "raw_content": "Motorola Releases Video Ads For Its New Moto E4 Smartphones\nMotorola had introduced the Moto E4 and the Moto E4 Plus smartphones in Brazil earlier this month, and the first two video ads for these devices surfaced on Motorola Brazil\u2019s official YouTube channel. These two ads are actually quite similar, the only different lies in the specs that are listed during these two ads, and the two phones are slightly different in terms of the design, so that\u2019s something you\u2019ll notice as well if you pay attention.\nIn these two ads, Motorola is giving us a good look at the design of both of these devices, while the company also lists some of their features and specs. Do keep in mind that these two ads are in Portuguese, that\u2019s because they\u2019re made for Brazil, mainly. Motorola is putting some emphasis on the Moto E4 and the Moto E4 Plus\u2019 displays in these two ads, and the same can be said about the camera and charging. The battery is also mentioned here, and so is Android 7.1 Nougat, which is the version of Android that comes pre-installed on these two smartphones. As already mentioned, these two devices are almost identical in terms of the design, there are only slight differences between the two, and the Moto E4 Plus is a larger phone, of course, as it sports a 5.5-inch 720p (1280 x 720) display compared to a 5-inch 720p (1280 x 720) panel on the Moto E4.\nMediaTek\u2019s MT6737 quad-core processor fuels both of these smartphones, along with the Mali-T720 GPU for graphics processing. The Moto E4 packs in 2GB of RAM and 16GB of expandable storage, while the Moto E4 Plus comes with 3GB of RAM and also 16GB of expandable native storage. An 8-megapixel snapper can be found on the back of the Moto E4, while you\u2019ll be able to spot a 13-megapixel camera on the back of the Moto E4 Plus. Both devices come with a 5-megapixel front-facing shooter, and both of them offer 4G LTE connectivity. A 2,800mAh battery comes out of the box on the Moto E4, while you\u2019ll find a 5,000mAh unit inside of the Moto E4 Plus. If you\u2019re interested in checking out Motorola\u2019s Moto E4 and Moto E4 Plus video ads, both of them are embedded down below.\nSource: Motorola Brazil (YouTube) Via: Tech Droider",

        "raw_content": "Report: Oklahoma used wrong drug in January execution\nOKLAHOMA CITY (AP) \u2014 Oklahoma used the wrong drug to stop an inmate's heart during an execution in January, according to an autopsy report obtained by a newspaper.\nThe Oklahoman reported Thursday that corrections officials used potassium acetate \u2014 not potassium chloride, as required under the state's protocol \u2014 to execute Charles Frederick Warner.\nSEE ALSO: Oklahoma seeks to halt three executions after drug mix-up\nLast week, Gov. Mary Fallin issued a last-minute stay for inmate Richard Glossip after officials discovered that potassium acetate had been delivered on the day of his scheduled execution. All executions in Oklahoma are on hold at the request of Attorney General Scott Pruitt as the state investigates the mix-up.\nPotassium chloride, which stops the heart, is the final drug in the state's protocol following a sedative and paralytic.\nOklahoma used the wrong drug to stop an inmate's heart during an execution in January.\nItems used in Warner's execution were sent to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, which performed an autopsy. The report said the office received two syringes labeled \"potassium chloride\" but that the 12 vials used to fill the syringes were labeled \"single dose Potassium Acetate Injection.\"\nAfter receiving the first drug in the series, midazolam, Warner said, \"My body is on fire,\" but showed no other signs of distress and was pronounced dead after 18 minutes.\nFallin told the newspaper Wednesday that \"it became apparent\" during the discussions Sept. 30 about a delay in Glossip's execution that the Corrections Department may have used potassium acetate in Warner's execution.\n\"I was not aware, nor was anyone in my office aware, of that possibility until the day of Richard Glossip's scheduled execution,\" she said.\nThe governor said she supports an inquiry into Warner's execution as well.\n\"It is imperative that the attorney general obtain the information he needs to make sure justice is served competently and fairly,\" she said in an email to the newspaper. \"Until we have complete confidence in the system, we will delay any further executions.\"\nLast week, the Death Penalty Information Center said potassium acetate had never been used in a U.S. execution.\nWarner is the only inmate executed in Oklahoma since the April 2014 lethal injection of Clayton Lockett, who writhed and moaned on the gurney for more than 40 minutes after an intravenous line was improperly placed, causing the drugs to go into his tissue instead of bloodstream.\nThat case, which cited the sedative midazolam, ended up before the U.S. Supreme Court, which upheld the use of the drug in June.\nRelated - Photos of Richard Glossip, who was recently executed in Oklahoma:\nOklahoma inmate Richard Glossip set to die for 1997 killing\nWASHINGTON, DC - SEPTEMBER 29: Anti-death penalty activists, including members of MoveOn.org and other advocay groups rally outside the U.S. Supreme Court in a final attempt to prevent the execution of Oklahoma inmate Richard Glossip on September 29, 2015 in Washington, DC.

The amount of the restitution is determined by the sentencing judge \u2026 He will not be sentenced. Therefore there will be no restitution order,\u201d the insider told Us. \u201cTherefore I doubt that there is anything to take to civil court. Any restitution order would be allocated among multiple known victims.\u201d\nThe source added, \u201cI\u2019m not saying that there isn\u2019t some lawyer out there willing to file suit on behalf of someone claiming to be a victim. But I am saying, that there is no order to be enforced, for $50,000 or any other amount on behalf of anyone.\u201d\nCriminal defense attorney Troy Slaten, who is not directly involved in Salling\u2019s case, further explained that Salling\u2019s victims would have to file a suit in civil court to pursue any restitution.\n\u201cAny victims can sue his estate in civil court and receive monetary awards for damages. These awards \u2026 can be in the neighborhood of hundred of thousands of dollars or even in the millions,\u201d Slaten said. They have to file suit in civil court, if they have not already, which they want to do quickly, because you do not want the estate to distribute assets. That would make it more difficult to collect.\u201d\nIf you or someone you know is in emotional distress or suicidal crisis, please call the Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).\nCelebrities who died in 2017:\nErin Moran, who is known for her role in TV sitcom \"Happy Days,\" died at the age of 56 after a secret battle with cancer.\nPlayboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner died in his home at the Playboy Mansion of natural causes on September 27.

        "title": "Valentinian I - 364-375 AD | Armstrong Economics",
        "raw_content": "Valentinian I \u2013 364-375 AD\nFlavius Valentinianus was born in Pannonia about 321 AD. Valentian was the son of Gratianus the Elder. His father was a man of humble origin who rose through the ranks of the military to become a great general. Valentinian traveled along with his father to Africa where he himself began to rise through the ranks of the military. Valentinian quickly proved himself quite talented and served distinguishably under the EmperorConstantius II and later under the Emperor Julian II. However, because of his Christian beliefs, Julian dismissed Valentinian from military service and banished him to Egypt in 362 AD.\nValentinian was recalled to service by the Emperor Jovian in 363 AD and was given the command of the troops in Gaul. Upon the untimely death of Jovian, the generals once again conferred among themselves to select a successor. Valentinian proved to be their choice.\nAt Nicaea, Valentinian was proclaimed Emperor. About a month later, he named his younger brother, Valens, co-Emperor. The Empire was then divided between the two rulers, Valentinian being content to leave the government of the Eastern provinces to his brother, while he himself took charge of the Western provinces. This division of the Empire would establish a precedent that would ultimately divide the Empire in two forever.\nValentinian almost immediately began building the defense of the Rhine frontier. This major project consumed most of his time. In 367 AD, Britain was simply overrun by Picts, Seats, Franks and Saxons. The situation became so critical that it took Count Theodosius, a skilled and experienced general, nearly two years to restore law and order in the island province.\nThere were many reforms that Valentinian brought to government, most of which focused perhaps too much on the military. Soldiers were given almost special status and taxes were raised by almost any methods possible to insure revenues. Less refined military men were raised to the rank of Senator and the Senate itself complained about the diminishing role which they played within government itself.\nThen there have been huge earthquakes that sank Alexandria, Egypt, which spawned a huge tremendous tsunami that devastated Sicily and Greece on July 21st, 365AD. In Alexandria itself, according to both historical records and archaeological evidence, collapsed onshore and offshore by an earthquake in the mid- to late-eighth century A.D., and by one or two earlier earthquakes sometime this one during 365/366AD and perhaps one earlier around 200AD. Edward Gibbon wrote in his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire:\n\u201cIn the second year of the reign of Valentinian and Valens, on the morning of the twenty-first day of July, the greatest part of the Roman world was shaken by a violent and destructive earthquake. The impression was communicated to the waters; the shores of the Mediterranean were left dry, by the sudden retreat of the sea; great quantities of fish were caught with the hand; large vessels were stranded on the mud; and a curious spectator ^1 amused his eye, or rather his fancy, by contemplating the various appearance of valleys and mountains, which had never, since the formation of the globe, been exposed to the sun. But the tide soon returned, with the weight of an immense and irresistible deluge, which was severely felt on the coasts of Sicily, of Dalmatia, of Greece, and of Egypt: large boats were transported, and lodged on the roofs of houses, or at the distance of two miles from the shore; the people, with their habitations, were swept away by the waters; and the city of Alexandria annually commemorated the fatal day, on which fifty thousand persons had lost their lives in the inundation. This calamity, the report of which was magnified from one province to another, astonished and terrified the subjects of Rome; and their affrighted imagination enlarged the real extent of a momentary evil. They recollected the preceding earthquakes, which had subverted the cities of Palestine and Bithynia: they considered these alarming strokes as the prelude only of still more dreadful calamities, and their fearful vanity was disposed to confound the symptoms of a declining empire and a sinking world.\u201d\nThat event sent the empire into crisis and necessitated the biggest tax increase in Roman history up to that point in history. To pay for the disaster and the rising costs of the military efforts required during his time in reconstruction and defense, Valentinian saw himself forced to introduce the highest, and most oppressive Roman taxes in history. He was keenly aware how bad this was and raised the taxes reluctantly. He then made a interesting sincere effort to protect the poor. In an attempt to share the financial burdens more justly he made great efforts to ensure that the privileged few would no longer avoid paying their taxes. He also created the office of \u2018Defender of the People\u2019, the role of which was to assist the poor. In every town such a Defender was appointed, empowered to protect the interests of the poor from infringements by the privileged classes and to ensure they were not bankrupted by the taxes.\nHere we have a weight (exaqium) for measuring gold solidi for taxes. Because of the large number of under-weight and false solidi in circulation, financial reforms were instituted by Valentinian I and Valens whereby gold collected in taxation was to be melted into ingots and tested before acceptance. Coins ceased to be legal tender (acceptable for taxation).\nGold bar 211.8 grams 91 x 16 x 9mm\nThe few gold ingots that have survived from antiquity are found with official counterstamps and the present example illustrated here bears the inscription \u201cmelted by Proculus\u201d. During the tax collection of 366 \u2013 367AD, Valentinian I thus imposed taxes due not in coin but instead by weight. The government essentially refused to accept its own deflated currency which might be under the official stated weight of 4.3 grams for a solidi as illustrated above in the exaquim and instead required all tax collections to be melted according to fineness and weight. Everything was melted down and poured into ingots such as the one offered here. The inscription on this ingot reads \u201cmelted by Proculus\u201d weighing in at 211.8 grams measuring 91 x 16 x 9 mm. This bar represented 47 gold solidii at an official weight of 4.3 grams each. Below, another bar has survived with a weight of 337.23 grams showing an image of the three emperors \u2013 Valentinian I, Valens and Gratian.\nGold bar 337.23 grams 17 x 1.75cm\nMost of his reign was spent fighting what appeared to be endless attacks on the borders by barbarians. Finally, in late 375 AD, while in residence at Bregetia, in Pannonia, Valentinian granted an audience to a delegation of Quadi. He became so enraged at their impudence and lack of respect, that the Emperor was seized with an epileptic fit and died on November 17th, 375 AD.\nFor all his faults, Valentinian did in fact revitalize the Roman Army at a time when it was desperately needed.

Minimal wear results in the net grade of Extremely Fine. .\nThis silver multiple weighing one-third of a Roman pound of silver is remarkably thick in comparison to contemporary silver coins. At the time, the normal silver unit of account was the siliqua and 24 siliquae equaled a gold solidus. The siliqua, the silver miliarense (2 siliqua) and the gold solidus were introduced during the monetary reforms of Constantine the Great. During Constantine\u2019s reign, gold was valued at about 14 times the worth of an equal weight of silver. Modern numismatists use the terms \u201csiliqua\u201d and \u201cmiliarense\u201das denomination names; however, they have no basis in fact as having been used in ancient times to refer to a specific coin.\nThis coin was no doubt a presentation piece given to a high-ranking Roman officer or dignitary. One theory that has been advanced is the possibility that Count Theodosius himself, peacemaker of Britain at the time, was the recipient of the medallion. A likely occasion for this honor was Valentinian\u2019s quinquennial celebration, held on 25 February AD 369.",

        "title": "State of Motion 2017 - Through the Intern's Eyes | Asian Film Archive",
        "raw_content": "with Matthew Yang, intern at Asian Film Archive.\nSo it begins! The AFA folks and I!\nThings have settled and gotten a little quieter in the office since the conclusion of State of Motion 2017 (SOM17). My internship had a frenzied \u2013 but expected \u2013 beginning since I was thrown into the heart of the preparation for the month-long event. That meant longer working hours that I consider as my \u201cbaptism of fire\u201d to my time at the archive. Nonetheless, I have since found my centre again to reflect on my involvement in SOM17.\nFor the unfamiliar, State of Motion is an annual film-meets-art exhibition organised by the Asian Film Archive (AFA), as part of Singapore Art Week. This year\u2019s edition themed: Through Stranger Eyes, features an exhibition that delves into the island\u2019s cinematic history through the critical exploration of historical film locations. The locations are picked from the five films programmed; these films were shot on-location in Singapore between the 1960s-80s. Majority of the films are lensed by foreign filmmakers, lending us to re-imagine Singapore\u2019s space and identity through their eyes. Apart from the usual film screenings, the exhibition features a special roving bus-tour, taking participants to visit the location sites around the island where a site-specific artwork awaits.\nThe bus tour reminded me of The Magic Schoolbus, an American animated kids series that follows a class of elementary school children who go on field trips on board a talking school bus where they learn about the world with their eccentric teacher, Miss Frizzle. While the State of Motion buses certainly don\u2019t talk, the tours cast a magical field for me. The roving tours offered an alternative history of Singapore cinema that I never knew, thanks to the information provided through the well curated programme.\nWhen we consider the history of Singapore cinema, we tend to break it into two parts: golden age of Singapore cinema, when there was bustling film activity especially of Malay film productions led by Shaw\u2019s Malay Film Productions and Cathay-Keris; revival period when the film industry appeared resuscitated after the success of Eric Khoo\u2019s 12 Stories at Cannes. Hence our cinematic history often omits the films from outside of these two periods, leaving many of them \u2018unaccounted\u2019 for and less known to many.\nThis year\u2019s SOM17 selection introduced some of these \u2018unaccounted\u2019 films, majority of which I had never heard of before. Apart from the infamous Saint Jack (1979), I became acquainted with other films such as Tony Yeow\u2019s and James Sebastian\u2019s Ring of Fury (1973) and Shohei Imamura\u2019s Karayuki-san (The Making of a Prostitute) (1975), two of my favourites from the programme. I would not have thought Singapore had its answer to Bruce Lee as karate master Peter Chong plays Fei Pao, a noodle hawker turn vigilante as he battles against extortion from local hoodlums. While the performances were bordering cheesy, some of the fight sequences were quite impressive. The final fight scene set in the Tampines sand quarry was particularly memorable as Fei Pao harnesses the power of a ring gifted from his mother to defeat the evil masked gang leader. The impressively coordinated fight sequence was spectacularly captured against the rocky barren-brown landscape. Imamura\u2019s documentary offers a sombering reflection of Malaya\u2019s past as the film chronicles the harrowing testimonies of the Japanese women kidnapped by the imperial army to service the soldiers in the peninsula. Imamura follows Kikuyo Zendo, a former comfort woman, as she leads the audience to interview other women who remained in Malaya, recounting their lives as sex workers in casual stoicism as well as discussing matters such as love and marriage amongst other things.\nWhile these films offer varying perspectives of Singapore\u2019s past, they raise one thing in common \u2013 the need to preserve and archive these cinematic gems. The films provide glimpses of the past, serving as a visual and aural document depicting history and culture. Saint Jack (1979) for example, presents incredible footage of the Old Bugis Street (current Bugis Junction) granting an insight to a notorious red light district for transgender women. The alleys of Bugis Street once held parades every evening, attracting tourists, sailors and American G.I.s on R&R from the region. If not for the film, I would not have known the history of Bugis Street which I now associate with tacky souvenir shops. Hence films do not just hold entertainment value, they also act as an audio and visual record that can be studied, so that we can make sense of the past as well as the future.\n\u201cSo what do you do at an archive?\u201d \u2013 a common question I get from curious family and friends. I always struggle to answer this question since I can never give them a concise answer. I suppose like the reality of most internships, we interns don\u2019t usually get allotted into a particular department; we do whatever that we are tasked. Hence my internship has gotten me involved in all aspects of archival work, or rather, archive operation. The truth is for a small archive like AFA, it is less formally structured compared to larger organisations. This means, if I may say, we are more flexible; we adopt the sort of structure that requires us (the staff) to wear several hats, taking on several roles at any time. Hence, our roles are not necessarily defined by position.\nMy involvement in SOM17 is a testament to that fact. I took on numerous roles and responsibilities since the preparation for the exhibition. There was a huge range in scale in terms of the exciting and the not-so-exciting things I got to do. Assisting in handling Ming Wong\u2019s artwork, Filem-Filem-Filem, was one of my more exciting involvements. There is something quite surreal in handling the instant colour photographs shot by an artist you have studied in school. His work, for me, no longer exists in plain text but takes form in my neophyte hands. Of course, there are always less exciting moments, but speaking in the spirit of a true intern, I would like to think important lessons can be drawn from them. For one, working on the ground provided me the chance to interact with an assemblage of people: volunteers, artists and the passionate public. The dialogue we exchanged formed a constellation of a passionate community for culture and the arts. It felt as if we were all cut from the same cloth, sharing the same passions and caring for the same concerns. However, the question for me was how can we make this community grow?\nClose inspection of Ming Wong\u2019s polaroids for his artwork Filem, Filem, Filem.\nThis question surfaced after I noticed the same familiar faces at our events. On one hand, it is an encouraging sign that people support us by returning for our other events. On the other, it signals that the crowd we attract is a small and niche one. They are mostly professionals and students in a related discipline (film, arts, visual arts, theatre, etc.), as well as a smaller group of passionate/curious members of the public. The question then is how do we resolve the imbalance? How can we attract Singaporeans from other walks of life to be interested in the work of the archive and to show support?\nIt seems the interest is there but what deters others is the cost. Our free events did much better than our paid ones. Our screenings (free) were extremely successful. Tickets for the screenings were fully registered weeks before. On top of that, we even had plenty of walk-ins on the day itself. Ticket sales for our SOM17 day tours were not as well taken up. The issue seemed not to be the lack of interest, but rather the cost as mentioned earlier. During my sitter duties at the exhibition, there were interested individuals that would enquire about the tours. However, the enquiry would take a dip when the topic of money came up. I would get \u201cWah! Must pay ah?\u201d or \u201cSo expensive!\u201d in typical Singaporean fashion. Therefore, it seems that many are still unwilling to part with their money for art events. It seems some citizens expect it to be free and place the responsibility on the state to make art accessible to them.\nIt bothers me that people would expect something they can get so much from to be issued gratis. The cost to put the tour together is substantial; it requires significant manpower (tour guides, bus drivers, contractors, etc.) and material (raw, curatorial, etc.). So how can all arts events always be free? Do the people involved not need to be paid?\nCurrently, the arts is still largely funded by the state. SOM17 was heavily funded by the National Arts Council. This is part of the many state initiatives that has been rolled out as Singapore continues to position herself as a \u2018Renaissance City\u2019 in the globalised world. The arts has taken a greater degree of importance over the past decade resulting in a brighter glow of the cultural landscape. Once considered a cultural desert, the island now boasts world-class art infrastructure such as schools and art institutions. The National Gallery Singapore is one such example. The former city hall and supreme court turned museum opened its doors in 2015, becoming the country\u2019s latest addition to its collection of cultural institutions and spaces. The National Gallery oversees the largest public collection of modern art in Singapore and South-East Asia. This collection which features works from local and regional artists is available to all Singaporeans and Permanent Residents at no cost.\nWhile the institutional infrastructure is in place, audiences do not seem quite ready just yet, hence it seems necessary for the industry to develop step by step with them. Art programmes such as SOM17 are already available, providing greater access to art. They enrich local arts by developing local talent through commissions as well as providing a platform to showcase new works. However, this would all be in vain if we do not develop an audience for the works.\nInitiatives such as the WeCare Arts Fund and the annual Silver Arts Festival have been introduced to act as a touching point for seniors to have a meaningful engagement with art-related activities. Much more can still be done. While it is easy to blame the state when things do not happen, effort should also come from the community when it comes to creating a robust arts scene. These efforts do not have to be monumental. Educators (parents, teachers, etc.) are essential in cultivating an interest for art in the young where they could inculcate the value of the arts to be on par to the sciences. For instance, they could make trips to the museum as regular as making visits to the library or even the cinema.\nMy interest in the arts grew from the support I received from home and school. My parents would make it a point to take my sister and I to museums every now and then when we go on family holidays. While they are definitely not art-ficionados, they instilled in us that there was cultural and economic significance in appreciating art. They would take us to see the Rembrandts, Picassos, Michelangelos and the Turners even when they had zero understanding of art. Hence I believe a relationship between community and institution can be established when engagement is reinforced from both the home and school.\nRome wasn\u2019t built in a day. Both the state and the community need to make continuous effort so that the arts scene can mature. Till then, it is not for us to decide whether we are a Renaissance City, but for there to be space to allow an already thriving scene to grow, and for there to be individual commitment to support and inspire the local arts.",

New Delhi has multiple sources of pollution: burning crops and rubbish, large particulate matter from the diesel, and dust from the streets. This repulsive concoction of smell, air quality and temperature of New Delhi was recreated and poured inside a geodesic dome by British artist Michael Pinsky as part of an art installation in Trondheim, Norway.\nThe pods contrast pollution in these five cities across four continents, and yet they are interconnected to make an important remark about the interdependence of our world. \u201cMuch of this pollution is driven by the insatiable appetite of capitalist consumerism. Whilst we here in the developed world live in an environment with relatively clean air, people in countries such as India and China are being poisoned by the air borne toxins created from industries fulfilling orders from the West,\u201d Pinsky mentioned this in his proposal.\n\"It\u2019s rare to come across smell as a medium of art, even though olfaction is a powerful sense with a lasting memory. In fact, it is the perfect medium for an issue like pollution because, as the creators of this project observe, images of smog and smoke in cities like Delhi and Mumbai can have a somewhat poetic, romantic, and mystical look to it.\"\nIt\u2019s rare to come across smell as a medium of art, even though olfaction is a powerful sense with a lasting memory.

        "raw_content": "Maintenance Skills Assessment and Training Needs Analysis\nIn order to ensure that the skills enhancement and development process at your organisation fully meets your organisational needs, the following issues must be addressed.\nEnsuring that assessment of skill requirements are based on the short-term and longer-term strategic needs of your business. There must be a clear link between the Training Plan and your Maintenance Improvement strategy.\nEnsuring that personnel are given the opportunity to apply the skills that are identified in the training plan. This implies that the primary focus should be on what we want people to do, rather than what we want them to know.\nEnsuring that the skills development process concentrates on the higher priority skill gaps first \u2013 those areas that will bring the greatest benefits to both individuals and the business.\nEnsuring that the training plan considers all of the training options that are available \u2013 both internal and external to the organisation.\nEnsuring that the skills development process is customised to suit individuals\u2019 needs, interests and capabilities. The training plan should be an integral part of a broader, Personal Development Planning process.\nEnsuring that the training plan is achievable \u2013 that people can be released to attend the planned training. Accordingly, this requires both an understanding of the capability of the organisation to release people from their normal duties, as well as consideration of other, competing initiatives that may consume people\u2019s time.\nOur approach to Maintenance Skills Assessment and Training Needs Analysis takes all of these factors into consideration.

        "raw_content": "Written By: Paula McLain\nA deeply evocative story of ambition and betrayal, The Paris Wife captures a remarkable period of time and a love affair between two unforgettable people: Ernest Hemingway and his wife Hadley.\nChicago, 1920: Hadley Richardson is a quiet twenty-eight-year-old who has all but given up on love and happiness\u2014until she meets Ernest Hemingway and her life changes forever. Following a whirlwind courtship and wedding, the pair set sail for Paris, where they become the golden couple in a lively and volatile group\u2014the fabled \u201cLost Generation\u201d\u2014that includes Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.\nThough deeply in love, the Hemingways are ill prepared for the hard-drinking and fast-living life of Jazz Age Paris, which hardly values traditional notions of family and monogamy. Surrounded by beautiful women and competing egos, Ernest struggles to find the voice that will earn him a place in history, pouring all the richness and intensity of his life with Hadley and their circle of friends into the novel that will become The Sun Also Rises. Hadley, meanwhile, strives to hold on to her sense of self as the demands of life with Ernest grow costly and her roles as wife, friend, and muse become more challenging. Despite their extraordinary bond, they eventually find themselves facing the ultimate crisis of their marriage\u2014a deception that will lead to the unraveling of everything they\u2019ve fought so hard for.\nA heartbreaking portrayal of love and torn loyalty, The Paris Wife is all the more poignant because we know that, in the end, Hemingway wrote that he would rather have died than fallen in love with anyone but Hadley.\nThe book seemed to drag at times but it was just building the story to an ending so well done. The emotions involved were excellently written. I truly enjoyed this book.\nI was excited about this book, but while the narration was great, I became bored with the long drawn out story. I usually press on, but gave up midway through.\nParis Wife: A Novel",

        "title": "Neural networks read mammograms as well as radiologists",
        "raw_content": "Neural networks read mammograms as well as radiologists\nMarch 3, 2017 -- VIENNA - Deep artificial neural networks can read mammograms as well as radiologists, according to research presented at ECR 2017 on Thursday.\nWhether radiologists welcome the finding as good news remains to be seen, as the field continues to grapple with the implications of artificial intelligence. But in any case, mammography is a good candidate for machine learning, said presenter Dr. Anton Becker of the University of Zurich.\n\"Mammography interpretation is a challenging task, and the performance of even experienced radiologists is only moderate,\" Becker said. \"Mammographic images are an ideal target for computer-based analysis because they're 2D projection images and they're very high-resolution images, so there's a lot of information to feed to the computer.\"\nBecker and colleagues sought to evaluate the diagnostic performance of an industrial-grade deep-learning artificial neural network for the detection of breast cancer. The network is based on artificial neurons that are stacked in layers, much like natural neurons; the different layers extract different features from test images, according to Becker.\n\"One big advantage of the network we used is that it generates heat maps that highlight what the neural network sees as suspicious,\" he told session attendees.\nFor the research, the group included 3,271 mammograms taken in 2012 at the University of Zurich. Becker and colleagues identified 143 patients diagnosed with cancer; of these, 90 were invasive ductal carcinoma, 13 were ductal carcinoma in situ, 13 were invasive lobular carcinoma, and three were mucinous carcinoma.\n\"In the group that had lesions, we excluded patients who had prior procedures because it might train the neural network for hematomas or scars, which could produce a falsely good performance,\" he said.\nThe research was conducted in two studies. The first included the 143 cancer cases, matched with controls taken from the same dataset for breast density and patient age; the neural network was trained with these two cohorts. For this first study, Becker also selected patients with cancer and a matched control group from another, publicly available dataset, which he and colleagues used to test the performance of the trained neural network using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The second study used the University of Zurich exams taken during the first nine months of the research time frame to train the neural network, and those taken the last three months to test it.\nFor both studies, three radiologists with three, seven, and 10 years of mammography experience, respectively, evaluated both datasets. Becker and colleagues then compared the area under the ROC curves (AUC) between these readers and the neural network.\nIn the first study, the AUC for the neural network was 0.81. One of the three radiologist readers showed comparable performance, with an AUC of 0.83, while the other two performed better than the neural network, with AUC values of 0.91 and 0.94. In the second study, the neural network's performance was comparable to the radiologists' performance, with an AUC value of 0.82, compared with the radiologists' range of 0.77 to 0.87.\n\"In the second study, we found that the readers showed higher specificity, but the neural network showed higher sensitivity,\" Becker said.\nThe findings suggest not only that neural networks are capable of performing on par with radiologists, but also that they can be trained with a relatively small amount of data, Becker said.\n\"Our research shows that deep neural networks can be trained with about 140 cases,\" he said. \"Up to now, studies have used much larger datasets.\"\nAnd despite being an all-purpose neural network, rather than one specifically designed for medicine, much less mammography, the computer learned quickly, Becker noted.\n\"This was a general-purpose network, and already it achieved comparable accuracy to experienced radiologists,\" he said.\nBecker conceded that machine learning still has a ways to go before it can outperform humans -- and there are a variety of factors that still need to be incorporated into the technology.\n\"Integrating concepts like multiple views, laterality, and lesion evolution into next-generation neural networks may be useful,\" he concluded.\nMachine learning in radiology targets efficiency\nWhile artificial intelligence is unlikely to replace radiologists any time soon, a new breed of software applications based on machine learning is poised...\nDeep learning helps spot CT exams with critical findings\nDeep-learning technology can be a useful tool for identifying cases that contain critical imaging findings, potentially expediting the interpretation...\nShould radiologists and pathologists unite to master AI?\nThe rise of artificial intelligence (AI) will undoubtedly lead to many unpredictable developments in the years to come, but one could be the unification...\nMachine learning: The next big thing for breast imaging?\nMachine learning in radiology is a popular subject these days, with some heralding its benefits and others sounding the alarm.

Access should be facilitated so that problems or issues can be quickly and simply tackled. In the meantime, the KMU desk is firmly established as a service of the Economic Development Unit.\nSince the relaunch of the web page in June 2016 combined with the renaming of the KMU desk to \u201cContact point for companies\u201d, the number of questions to the Economic Development Unit has further increased. Not a day goes by in which no new question is asked via telephone or mail, for example \u201cWhat permission is needed to open an employment agency?\u201d, \u201cWhen is it possible to change a B-permit into a C-permit\u201d? or \u201cWhat are the criteria for a tax relief?\u201d.\nThe Economic Development Unit cannot and will not fully answer every question. The contact point rather delivers the first information, identifies the relevant administration unit or organisation and provides the right contact promptly.\nBecause of the multitude of questions, the work is demanding and stimulating at the same time. Personal contact is important. Whether through mail or by telephone, the question is shortly recorded together and either directly answered or the next step is defined.

        "raw_content": "So I'm spending a week in Dominica. Myself and my entire family have travelled for my grandfather's funeral and his death, naturally, has made me very contemplative about life, but being in such a beautiful and tranquil place has heightened the feeling ten fold.\nToday was my first day here and it has honestly felt so surreal! This is my first time in the caribbean since I was 6, so I feel like I'm in one of those music video where they shoot all of the people and scenery to a very pensive and melancholic song. Life here is so simple, so beautifully simple and I can only imagine how different their daily thought processes are to ours.\nI'm currently staying with my nan in Mahaut, all of the towns here run along the coastline and up into the hills, but very little of the actual country is residential as it is mostly mountains. I wake up and all I see is greenery. Just green everywhere!\nCopy of View from the house\nCopy of Front garden\nCopy of Mahaut\nSo, I found a guided meditation for focus and productivity and I've been doing it in the mornings on the veranda. My level of focus has always been an issue in my life and it's staring to give me anxiety. Before I could get away with coasting, but I have too much going on now so I have to be far more intentional with how I use my time! It's all about cultivating new habits and I'm hoping I can start the process while I'm here. I've tried so many times, but since this is the first holiday that I've had since I made my huge career change and I'm hoping to get in touch with something that I haven't been able to before. In all honesty, my state of mind has made a huge shift in most aspects, but I am still dealing with believing in the process. I am still struggling to trust the struggle and believe in the journey and I think it's on a count of my need for instant gratification. I need results now! And wanting everything now makes me anxious about the future, which makes it hard for me to live in the present and very difficult to focus and get things done. It's a vicious cycle that I have to break!\nBut being here makes me realise that I'm lucky to even have the perspective which allows for big ambitions. They sell single eggs for $0.79; some people here, apparently, can't even think past their most immediate meals and I have a 5 year plan! I come from a place where opportunity is rife and I can meet someone who can help change my life at any moment and it isn't like that here. Life is beautifully simple, but I'm sure many people don't comprehended how much is out there in the rest of the world.\nCopy of Local bus route\nCopy of Local clothes shop\nCopy of Local convenience store\nOn the subject of ambition, I saw the site where my dad is building our house/apartments and I'm so excited and so proud! This is all off the back of years of money management and an accumulation of good decisions. I need to remember that this is what I'm working towards, having enough money and life experience to create great things and have them stand the test of time for the sake of my children. It reinforces why I need to delay gratification and enjoy the journey.\nCopy of Front of house\nCopy of View from the veranda\nCopy of Back of house\n\u0093\u201cWithout delayed gratification, there is no purposeful pursuit.\u201d\u0094\n\u2014 Sunday Adelaja\nWhenever I tell anyone I'm Dominican (unless they're Dominican themselves) they think I'm referring to Dominica Republic, people just aren't even aware this country exists, so tourism is really low and you get a real genuine experience. Everything is authentic. The beaches are empty, everything is cheap and the island is basically untouched - they don't call it the Nature Isle for no reason! My favourite thing is the sulphur springs! They are so amazing! Imagine taking a relaxing bath and putting it on the beach or in the middle of the rain forest somewhere, that's a sulphur spring.\nCopy of Bubble Beach and a sulphur spring within the rocks\nCopy of Me at Bubble Beach :)\nCopy of Bubble Beach\nCopy of Mango tree\nThis is just day one and I already feel like I should be having an awakening or some kind of epiphany. I need to relax, be present and enjoy each day as it comes! The whole point of mindfulness is living in the now and this week I'm going to try my very hardest to clear my mind and do just that, but it's so much harder than it sounds! Wish me luck!\n\u0093\u201cPast and future are in the mind only - I am now.\u201d\u0094\nI am going to live in the present.\nI am going to live everyday intentionally with purpose.\nI am going to give myself time to be the best version of me.",

        "raw_content": "In collaboration with GL Hearn Baca were asked to look into the potential for the future expansion opportunities to support the growth of the West Sussex town of Littlehampton. Baca carried out initial feasibility studies on over 30 sites to determine the most suitable opportunities. From the 30 sites 8 sites were considered potentially suitable to deliver the 1000 home strategic objective of the Littlehampton Economic Growth Area. Following identification of suitable sites a coordinated and integrated strategy was implemented to create sustainable development and infrastructure able to support the economic growth targets. Due to the potential for flooding in and around Littlehampton Baca Architects strategic specialism in flood mitigation solutions to create safe new development was drawn on to provide a coherent and feasible framework for future development. The new development will not be fully defended and Makes Space for Water by retaining effective flood plain across the site where suitable. The proposals include flood resilient homes, flats over car parking that will be allowed to flood in extreme flood events and elevated mixed-use schemes.\nWork has begun on-site for a high-end home in an attractive area in north of England. The five-bedroom residence will combine energy-saving technology with top-of-the-range luxury living. The four-storey home, featuring a sizeable basement, will include a home cinema, games room, dressing room and jacuzzi in its 7,000sqft of living space. Clad in Ashlar stone and designed to meet CfSH Level 4, this opulent home will boast high-performance double-glazing, natural ventilation, under floor heating and Photovoltaic solar slates. The landscaped garden includes stone and lawned stepped terraces, reminiscent of an amphitheatre, with an attractive water feature cascading down its centre. \u200b\nBaca\u2019s Brook Street flood-resilient home is close to completion and will be ready to welcome it\u2019s family-owners in time for Christmas. The main structure has been completed with finishing touches to the interior and landscape now underway. The elevated building, located in an historic Oxfordshire village, is situated next to a brook that can flood during periods of heavy rain. During a flood, water is conveyed underneath the house, yet in dry periods its elevated nature means the house appears to float above the surrounding wildflower meadow. The sculpted landscape enables water storage and provides a gradual warning of an approaching flood. The family home is low in profile and simple in form with a nod to converted barns in the area; the series of interlocking buildings, clad in timber, glass and steel, provide open-plan living space that also manages to maintain the intimacy of separate rooms. \u200b",

        "raw_content": "Killers Merchandise\nFew bands in the mid-2000s rose so quickly to the forefront of pop music as Las Vegas quartet the Killers. With a mix of '80s-styled synth pop and fashionista charm, the band's street-smart debut, Hot Fuss, became one of 2004's biggest releases, spawning four singles and catapulting the group -- particularly their dandyish, 22-year-old frontman, Brandon Flowers -- into the international spotlight. Hot Fuss reveled in the garish glitz of the band's native Las Vegas, spinning tales of androgynous girlfriends and illicit affairs to a public whose taste for revivalist dance-rock would prove to be virtually insatiable. Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, and the Bravery all benefited from such retro-minded interest, but the Killers unapologetically trumped them all -- even when their sophomore effort, Sam's Town, deemphasized the group's new wave sensibilities in favor of something more akin to the heartland rock of Bruce Springsteen and Rattle and Hum-era U2.\nBrandon Flowers (vocals/keyboards), David Keuning (guitar), Mark Stoermer (bass), and Ronnie Vannucci (drums) first came together in 2002, two years before the stylish Hot Fuss introduced their band to the public. Flowers had been sacked by his former synth pop band, Blush Response, after refusing to move to Los Angeles alongside his bandmates. Instead, he remained in Las Vegas, where he soon met local guitarist and Oasis fanatic Keuning. The two began collaborating on material; within weeks, they had composed their soon-to-be radio hit \"Mr. Brightside.\" Stoermer, a former medical courier, and Vannucci, a classical percussion major at UNLV, soon joined the fray, and the band began playing small clubs in their hometown. A U.K. representative for Warner Bros caught wind of the Killers' brewing hype, and although he neglected to bring them aboard the Warner roster, he did pass along their demo to London-based indie imprint Lizard King. The British label quickly signed the Killers, who temporarily moved to the U.K. and issued a limited-edition single for \"Mr. Brightside.\" The Killers' buzz had effectively traveled back across the Atlantic by fall 2003, and the band was offered a prime spot at the annual CMJ Music Marathon in New York City. A worldwide deal with Island followed shortly thereafter, positioning the Killers to join the ranks of Interpol, the Rapture, and the Strokes.\nShared U.K. dates with British Sea Power and stellastarr* in summer 2004 gave the Killers the opportunity to showcase material from their debut album, Hot Fuss, which arrived in June. \"Somebody Told Me,\" \"Mr. Brightside,\" \"Smile Like You Mean It,\" and \"All These Things That I've Done\" all became worldwide chart hits, and Hot Fuss peaked at number seven on the Billboard Top 200. Buoyed by such success, Flowers became a sought-after media presence, often lashing out at such groups as the Bravery for riding his band's coattails into the mainstream. The frontman's confidence was not unwarranted; by 2006, Hot Fuss had earned five Grammy nominations and sold over five million copies. Rather than take a break to recover from their relentless tour regime, the Killers immediately set to work on their sophomore effort. A newly built facility at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas became the band's studio, and legendary producers Flood and Alan Moulder (who had previously worked together with U2 and the Smashing Pumpkins) were chosen to helm the controls. Instead of mining the glamour and glitz of their hometown (as they did to successful extent on Hot Fuss), the group instead focused on nostalgia and the demise of old-fashioned American values, citing veteran songsmith Bruce Springsteen as a chief influence.\nThe popularity generated by leadoff single \"When You Were Young\" led up to the highly anticipated release of Sam's Town in early October 2006. While the album did not match the commercial popularity of the band's debut, it nevertheless sold 700,000 copies worldwide during its first week, eventually spawning three U.S. singles and gaining the Killers two additional Grammy nominations. Sawdust, a collection of B-sides, rarities, and remixes, was scheduled for a fall release the following year.",

        "raw_content": "Florida Gov. Rick Scott has requested that law enforcement agencies, including the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, investigate potential fraudulent activity in Broward and Palm Beach counties in his race for the Senate.\nThe Department reportedly initially responded that, while it is not investigating any matters directly related to the November 6 election, it had reached out to the Florida Department of State to offer assistance with any investigation that specifically involves the collection and tabulation of votes.\nSeveral days later, the head of Florida\u2019s top law enforcement agency then reported that the agency was conducting a preliminary inquiry into the election. The Department of State also informed the agency that they have not received any allegations of criminal activity as it relates to the election.\nClosely Divided Senate Race & Newfound Votes\nA statewide recount is currently underway, with the divide between Scott and his running opponent Sen. Nelson being within a .25 percent margin (i.e. Nelson is trailing by approximately 13,000 votes), meaning that the race would first go to a machine recount and then a hand recount, if the margin holds.\nThe controversy started after officials found and added thousands of votes days after the election passed for the two heavily Democratic counties, which them reduced statewide leads for several Republican candidates. Proof of fraud would require evidence of intent by officials. According to officials within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, a written order from the governor for the Department to pursue a misconduct investigation of an elections supervisor or other public officials is all that is needed to open an investigation.\nLegal Violations & Criminal Activity?\nScott and several other Republicans have also cited a series of state laws and procedures, accusing election officials of violating them in Broward and Palm Beach. Attorney General Pam Bondi has ordered the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to investigate to determine whether there were any potential documented irregularities, and if so, whether they were a reflection of incompetence or intentional malfeasance and fraud.\nThere are also two other statewide recounts underway, including the race for agriculture commissioner and for the governor\u2019s race. While, initially, Ron DeSantis led Andrew Gillum in the governor\u2019s race by almost 72,000 votes, in the final count, DeSantis only led Gillum by less than 34,000 votes; a close enough tally to warrant a recount; similarly to the close divide between Scott and Nelson.\nContact Our Florida Criminal & Civil Rights Attorneys to Find Out More\nIf you have suffered a loss of your civil rights\u2014such as your right to vote\u2014contact one of our Florida experienced civil rights attorneys at the Baez Law Firm today to find out how we can help.\ncnn.com/2018/11/09/politics/florida-election-no-allegation-of-criminal-activity/index.html\nnaplesnews.com/story/news/politics/elections/2018/11/13/top-law-enforcement-officer-state-probe-underway-florida-election/1988516002/",

Groutas, Flickr )\nMladi\u0107's arrest opens a new page for Serbia and for the whole region. On the XXth anniversary since the start of the dissolution of Yugoslavia, a sign that the ex-socialist country's long transition has come to an end. After thousands of victims. Our comment\nSerbia turns a page. With the arrest of Ratko Mladi\u0107, president Tadi\u0107 has shown leadership of a normal country. A country in which civil authorities have control over the military and the secret services. There will be harsh reactions, nostalgic parades, protests. But they will not change the historical significance of this day. The long transition begun in '89, the end of a socialist system gone criminal, the assertion of new rules of the game, become a matter of fact as from today. In the midst of this, 10 years of war, dozens of thousands of victims, millions of refugees. 10 years of bereavements for which old Serbia bears heavy responsibility.\nNobody was questioning Tadi\u0107 and his Party's honesty in leaving the past behind, and his commitment to the path towards Europe. The President faced a number of difficult tests. Kosovo, for example. He kept a balance between a position of total rejection of secession but, at the same time, insisted on dialogue and attending the negotiating table. He made significant efforts towards reconciliation at the regional level, taking part in the remembrance ceremonies of 11th July in Srebrenica and meeting the Croat President Josipovi\u0107 in Vukovar. Recently, he reaffirmed his support of territorial integrity of Bosnia Herzegovina during the severe crisis of the \u201csick man of Dayton\u201d. But all this was not enough. Mladi\u0107 was missing. The proof was missing to testify to the defeat of the \"deep Serbian State\", the one led by the military, the secret services and the mafia, responsible for years of sorrow in the region and finally, in Serbia, for the murder of Zoran \u0110in\u0111i\u0107 and the end of that short spring of democracy.\nA graffiti showing Mladi\u0107\nHanding in a General is not an easy choice for any government. Generals are the symbol of a sovereignty that no State would like to surrender, they guard the deepest secrets of the apparatus. During the war in Bosnia, Mladi\u0107 was a regular guest at the meetings of the Supreme Serbian Defence Council, in Belgrade. For the military, Mladi\u0107 was not Karad\u017ei\u0107. He was one of them. This is also why they protected him. In these 15 years on the run, the General had many friends. Foreigners too. In the first years after the end of the war, in Bosnia there were thousands of SFOR troops. Why didn't they catch him? Because of the fear of the the Bosnian Serbs' possible reaction, or cause of the complicity surrounding him? In Serbia, until Milo\u0161evi\u0107's downfall, he lived freely. He could even go to the stadium to watch a football match. After 2000, however, things started to change. The General remained in the barracks (Top\u010dider, in Dedinje) and went out more discretely. Between 2003 and 2006 it is believed he lived in Novi Beograd. The big change came in May 2007, with the arrest of Zdravko Tolimir, ex head of security of the Bosnian Serb army, Mladi\u0107's \u201ccolleague\u201d in Srebrenica in July '95 and held to be responsible for the abscondant's protection network. Since then things started to get worse for Mladi\u0107. First Tadi\u0107's victory (May 2008), then Karad\u017ei\u0107's arrest, two months later. Nevertheless, his protection system continued to work. The \u201cdeep State\u201d endured. It was like Damocles' sword, not only attached to Serbia, ma to the whole region. If Tadi\u0107 wanted to hand him in, why didn't he do it? The doubt was that he was too weak to face the apparatus, that the \u201cdeep State\u201d was still too dangerous.\nToday the President has decided to take that risk. A new Spring has begun, not only for Serbia, but for the whole region. Let's hope it will not be a short one.",

        "raw_content": "Getting frozen to the future for $120,000 Calif. firm freezes bodies to await technology to revive them\nRIVERSIDE, Calif. -- In death they stand on their heads nestled four to a canister -- the professor, the TV repairman, the writer and the homemaker. Submerged in super-chilled liquid nitrogen, they are as rigid as the breaded fish sticks in your grocer's freezer.\nThis is the easy part of achieving immortality through freezing, a technique known as cryonic suspension. The hard part comes when somebody thaws these four bodies and tries to bring them back to life.\nIf that ever happens, they and 21 other \"patients\" stored here at the Alcor Life Extension Foundation will become the Rip Van Winkles of the 20th century, albeit at a charge of up to $120,000 apiece (though freezing only your head costs $41,000).\nThe hope is that medical science will advance enough to revive everybody in about 150 years, ushering them into the future with renewed youth and vitality, even if also with a huge gap on their resumes.\nBut the future is getting a mite crowded at Alcor. At the current pace of sign-ups the facility will house a small, mute city of the frozen by the end of the next generation, with a population-in-waiting building toward 1,000, supported by a trust fund that already tops $2 million.\nCritics, and there are plenty, call cryonics nonsense -- at best a laughable delusion, at worst a scam robbing bereaved relatives of money and a dignified farewell. Health departments and hospitals have occasionally fought cryonicists to their knees, although in recent years Alcor has overcome its challengers in a series of widely-publicized court cases.\nAnd there's no denying that it's popularity is increasing here at the largest and richest of the world's three cryonics facilities (the others are in Oakland, Calif., and Oak Park, Mich.)\nAfter two straight years of 33 percent growth, Alcor's sign-ups haverisen to 353, and another 140 people have begun the sign-up process, says vice president Ralph Whelan. Requests for Alcor's glossy 104-page information booklet trickle in at a rate of about 15 a day, compared to the rate six years ago of two a week.\nIt's difficult to guess any of this by looking at the place. The office backs up to a busy expressway in the middle of a small industrial park. Next door is Starving Students Movers, and just around the corner is Vern's Precision Form Grinding. An ambulance parked by the front door is emblazoned with Alcor's Phoenix-bird logo.\nThe \"patient care bay\" where the 10 bodies and 15 heads are stored is a glorified garage. Three 10-foot high, stainless steel cylinders hold the bodies, while two steel-reinforced concrete vaults hold the heads. A red-lettered sign, labeled BIOHAZARD, warns of the AIDS virus within. Three of the heads belonged to AIDS victims.\nMost of the time there is little going on in the building unless a member has just died. Then the place becomes a blur of surgeons and technicians, working to flush out a body's bloodstream and pump chemicals into the system that will help remove moisture from the body (to minimize the cell damage done by ice).\nAnd, as any cryonicist will tell you, the quicker you can get a body into the deep freeze, the better the chances for good preservation.\nAfter 24 hours at room temperature a dead body might as well be buried as frozen, some cryonicists admit.\nBut everybody gets frozen anyway, optimum conditions or not, and the people who sign up for freezing wouldn't want it any other way.\n\"Most of the people want to be suspended regardless,\" says Robert Ettinger, a Michigan physics instructor known as the \"Father of Cryonics\" for his 1964 book on the subject. \"In other words, 'If you can find me, freeze me.' \"\nThe greatest fear is being lost, whether vanished beneath the waves or incinerated by fire.\nThen there's the bogyman of autopsy. \"It is standard procedure in autopsy to remove the brain in sections, and of course that's not good,\" Mr. Whelan explained. \"So we go into high-gear negotiating mode and work hard to get a non-invasive autopsy. But you don't always get your way.\"\nSuch efforts were put to the test in June, when Alcor member Michael Friedman, a Los Angeles attorney, was killed by an angry client who shot him five times in the head.\n\"We actually heard about the shooting on the news before we found out it was one of our members. There was a delay of almost 24 hours,\" Mr. Whelan said.\nThe good news was that \"only one of the bullets actually penetrated his brain. But they had to remove the brain to remove the bullet. . . They immediately handed it [the brain] to us, and we were able to do our best to preserve it. But as you can imagine, this is really what you would consider a tragedy,\" he said.\nMr. Friedman had signed up to have his whole body frozen, but because of the autopsy he is now the only patient with his brain stored in one tank and the rest of his body in another.\nOnce frozen, maintenance is simply a matter of topping off storage tanks with liquid nitrogen, a 30-cents-per-liter commodity that boils off from each container at a rate of about 11 liters per day. This means it doesn't matter if an earthquake knocks out the electricity. Bodies are stored upside-down so heads will stay submerged if there's ever a bad leak.\nFreezing creates its own problems. At the temperature of liquid nitrogen body tissue develops severe cracks.\nCryonicists readily acknowledge this, but explain it away with theassumption that guides their optimism in the face of all obstacles, namely: By the time technology is advanced enough to revive frozen bodies, it will also be able to repair damaged cells. This also explains why some people have only their heads frozen. They figure science will be able to grow them a new body.\nAlcor is the only cryonics center still offering the head-only option. Art Quaife, president of Trans Time Inc., the Oakland cryonics center with 11 frozen patients, said, \"There's just too much loss of identity. It's not on the menu [here] anymore.\"\nThis is only one of several points of contention between the three cryonics centers. The competitors generally don't like talking about each other, and when they do they tend to carp.\nMr. Ettinger, associated with the center in Oak Park, Mich., also with 11 patients, says the two California sites charge too much -- Trans Time, a for-profit company, charges $130,000, which is $10,000 more than the non-profit Alcor. Oak Park will freeze you for $28,000.\nYou get what you pay for, Mr. Whelan says.\n\"They do almost nothing in the way of preparing their members [for freezing],\" Mr. Whelan says of the Oak Park center. \"We spend over $20,000 on the surgical procedures that we're doing . . . They also have no kind of transport capability. When one of their members dies, it's up to that dead member to get to their facility somehow.\"\nAlcor's big price tag is needed to generate money for long-term financial survival, he maintains. Annual salaries at Alcor are small, he added, averaging $12,000 for seven full-time employees, and most of the income goes to the Patient Care Trust Fund, now at $2.1 million. It will someday pay for revival costs, and, if there's anything left, for job training and initial living expenses.\nMr. Whelan said it's also necessary to get all the money up front atthe time of death (usually through a life insurance policy signed over to Alcor in advance). He explained that relatives of the deceased \"tend to lose interest in paying for old frozen Uncle Ed after eight or nine years go by.\"\nAlcor is easily the fastest-growing of the three, although each is scouting for a new, bigger location. And all share the central belief of cryonics -- that some day they'll have the last laugh on all the long-gone stiffs who now make fun of them.\nTouring a place like Alcor can be unnerving, knowing that all those bodies and heads are floating around. But Mr. Whelan takes comfort from the realization.\nWhen he first went to work at Alcor he used to stroll into the patient care bay first thing every morning to ponder the wonder of it all, although after a while even frozen people become old hat.\n\"But the bottom line is I still think about it every day,\" he said. \"I think about the fact that I might be in there someday. And the overwhelming feeling is one of optimism, because it's my opinion that we're going to make it, and these people are going to be coming out into a much better world.\"",

        "raw_content": "Gov. Larry Hogan proposes $1.5 million to help Maryland dairy farmers\nIn this file photo Holsteins wait to enter the milking parlor at Cow Comfort Inn Dairy in Union Bridge Tuesday, Dec. 19, 2017.\nIn this file photo Holsteins wait to enter the milking parlor at Cow Comfort Inn Dairy in Union Bridge Tuesday, Dec. 19, 2017. (Dylan Slagle / Carroll County Times)\nMaryland Gov. Larry Hogan on Thursday proposed $1.5 million in funds to help struggling dairy farmers participate in a federal program that aims to protect dairies from plummeting milk prices paired with the rising cost of feeding cows.\nHogan\u2019s proposed $1.5 million will have to be approved by the Maryland General Assembly as part of the capital budget.\n\u201cFor months we have been searching for a way to help our dairy farmers who are facing particularly challenging times,\u201d Hogan said Thursday, Feb. 7, addressing the annual Taste of Maryland Agriculture dinner.\nThe proposed funding would help Maryland dairies maintain their margins \u2014 their income after paying for cow feed. If approved the state funds would cover the premiums dairy farmers would incur by registering for the the U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Dairy Margin Coverage program at the highest level: $9.50 margin.\n\u201cIt\u2019s ensuring your income over your feed, which is essentially the profitability because feed is our No. 1 expense,\u201d said David Pyle, who with his wife Katie Dotterer-Pyle, milks 375 cows \u2014 mostly Jerseys \u2014 at Cow Comfort Inn Dairy, in Union Bridge.\nPyle\u2019s dairy is almost exclusively a buy-feed operation, spending nearly $1 million on cow feed in 2018.\nKatie Dotterer-Pyle grew up on her family\u2019s dairy farm in Pennsylvania. Her husband, David Pyle, grew up on his family\u2019s dairy farm in Vermont.\nLifelong dairy farmers, the couple opened their own operation 10 years ago, renting facilities before they purchased their farm in Union Bridge in 2013.\nDairies in Maryland struggle to compete with the economies of scale available to those in the Midwest. Low milk prices and the cost of feed affect all dairies.\nIn 1995 there were 1,009 dairies in Maryland; today there are 364, according to the Maryland Department of Agriculture.\nToday, there are approximately 30 dairy farms in Carroll County, compared to more than 700 dairy farms in the 1950s, according to the Carroll County Farm Bureau.\n\u201cMy neighbors, all the way around me, it doesn\u2019t matter which one it is, if they\u2019re in the dairy business, they\u2019re stressed right now,\u201d Pyle said.\nIf Hogan\u2019s proposal goes through and the state pays the farmer\u2019s dairy margin program premiums, \u201cYou\u2019ve just put yourself at a profitable level for the year,\u201d Pyle said. \u201cYou won\u2019t fall below that \u2026 you\u2019ll continue to be able to pay your bills, your employees, pay your taxes, manage your business and move on.\u201d\nPaired with other federal government initiatives geared toward protecting dairy farms, Hogan\u2019s proposal to pay Dairy Margin Coverage program premiums will give dairy farmers like Pyle a sense of security in knowing their milk prices \u2014 cost per 100 pounds \u2014 will be stable.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to give a dollar higher per 100 weight, floor price,\u201d Pyle said. \u201cThat means I will not fall below a dollar over what I got last year.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Laurel TV runs on citizen power\nPhoto by Nicole Munchel, Baltimore Sun Media Group\nLaurel TV's Edward Thomas, of Bowie, films the Laurel Arts Festival at the Laurel Armory Oct. 12.\nLaurel TV's Edward Thomas, of Bowie, films the Laurel Arts Festival at the Laurel Armory Oct. 12. (Photo by Nicole Munchel, Baltimore Sun Media Group)\nWhen Audrey Barnes left TV to become Laurel&apos;s director of communications, she had one clear goal in mind\nWhen Audrey Barnes left television journalism to become Laurel's director of communications earlier this year, she had one clear goal in mind: Completely revamp Laurel's public access television station.\nSeven months into her tenure, noticeable changes are evident. The station's studios at the Laurel Municipal Center have been renovated; a full-time media coordinator has been hired to run the day-to-day operations; and the station has been rebranded as Laurel TV. Barnes says more is on the horizon as the station is set to premiere nine new shows by the end of the year.\nWhile Barnes had the vision, she knows that it takes more than that to make it work. Because while Laurel TV runs on electricity, it is truly citizen-powered.\n\"I really felt like it was my mission to fill that TV screen 24/7, and it starts with building a strong foundation of volunteers,\" Barnes said. \"The volunteers are the key. ... Without the volunteers it wouldn't be possible.\"\nSince the station \u2013 which broadcasts on Comcast Channel 71, Verizon Fios Channel 12 and also streams on the city's website, cityoflaurel.org \u2013 relaunched as Laurel TV in September, Barnes and media coordinator Joyce Jackson, a fellow television journalist turned city employee, have received more than 100 applications for volunteers.\nYou have a lot of people out there in the community who want to help and tell stories, and that's a good thing. \u2014 Media coordinator Joyce Jackson\n\"You have a lot of people out there in the community who want to help and tell stories, and that's a good thing,\" Jackson said. \"When people are this anxious and have this much energy, you have to give them an outlet. And that's what Laurel TV is doing.\"\nBarnes said the volunteers \"run the gamut\" in experience level. To help acclimate volunteers, Barnes hosted two training sessions attended by 25 volunteers each, one for reporters and one for photographers.\n\"We had some people that had never touched a camera, and some people had a good working knowledge,\" she said. \"The biggest thing is having volunteers who are willing to try anything. I think that goes a long way.\"\nValerie Cunningham, right, a volunteer for Laurel TV, covers the Laurel Arts Festival Sunday.\nValerie Cunningham, right, a volunteer for Laurel TV, covers the Laurel Arts Festival Sunday. (Photo by Nicole Munchel, Baltimore Sun Media Group)\n'Serving the people'\nLaurel resident Valerie Cunningham is one of the volunteers with industry experience, having worked as a news reporter for a radio station in Missouri. Since joining the station's budding volunteer stable in September, she has served as a volunteer reporter. Her most recent assignment was the Laurel Arts Festival on Oct. 12.\nCunningham said she volunteers because it is \"a great way to give back.\"\n\"I enjoy serving the people; I enjoy interacting with the people, and I enjoy giving back,\" she said. \"It puts you in touch with the community around you.\"\nIn addition to being a volunteer reporter, she has helped produce a fitness show called \"Fitness 365.\" The monthly show is hosted by Jackson and features a local citizen and a fitness theme. The October episode will feature a Laurel breast cancer survivor, who will give fitness tips for those recovering from cancer.\nMichael Sancho, 49, is another Laurel resident and volunteer who has developed his own show. His show is called \"Comeback Stories\" and features local residents who have overcome extreme adversity. The show is an extension of a nonprofit he created called Comeback Stories Inc., which is an online video database that documents these stories.\n\"It's a TV show version of what we do with the nonprofit,\" Sancho said. \"It's a perfect opportunity for our nonprofit to help the city of Laurel and the community. And also it gives us an opportunity to spotlight some people with great stories.\"\nThe first show will include accounts of a Laurel business owner and resident that was abused as a child, as well as a Laurel resident who had to rebuild her life after her home burned down.\nRichard Friend, the author of the blog Lost Laurel, will also have a show on the network. According to his blog, the first episode was shot in September and will feature Main Street.\nWhile the station is always looking for show ideas, it also needs a stable of reliable volunteer reporters and photographers to cover live events. This is a perfect match for someone like Kayleen Yermal, a Howard Community College sophomore and Laurel resident. Yermal, 18, is studying broadcast journalism, and has aspirations to attend the University of Maryland College Park to continue her education next fall.\nIt's this career path that led her to volunteer at Laurel TV, a place where she said she receives invaluable experience.\n\"Being a sophomore, I haven't had much experience reporting. This is a really good opportunity to get this experience, to conduct interviews on screen and on camera,\" she said.\nShe added that having two Emmy award-winning journalists in Barnes and Jackson to learn from is also a big bonus.\n\"I was a little star struck,\" she said about meeting them. \"It's been really good having them and being under them because they have that experience.\"\nJackson said a big part of her job is serving as a teacher to volunteers of all ages and backgrounds.\n\"The volunteers are the backbone of what we are doing. These are the people we are going to be relying on heavily,\" she said.\nJackson said she and Barnes are leveraging their industry contacts to help educate the volunteers. She said they are currently planning for professionals from different technical backgrounds to come to Laurel to teach workshops.\n\"In order for the station to grow, volunteers are a crucial asset to us,\" Jackson said.\nNew dynamic\nWhile there are a lot of new faces around Laurel TV, not every volunteer is new to the game. Paul Kirkpatrick has been volunteering at the station for 15 years, and previously served as the president of the Laurel Cable Network, the nonprofit that ran the station before it was absorbed by the city government in 2013.\nKirkpatrick, who produced the Laurel City Council meetings, said the station has changed drastically in the past year.\n\"The dynamics of the station have changed completely since it has been run by the city,\" he said.\nAnd the changes, from what he can see, are for the better.\n\"The city has more funding to accomplish these things than we did,\" he said. \"They have professional personnel that have a long track record of excellence in the television field, and that in itself is quite a boost for the TV station.\"\nAnd although changes have come fast and furious, one salient truth remains: The station is only as strong as its volunteers.\n\"As volunteering declined around 2005, the programming decreased greatly,\" he said. \"Now that Audrey is at the helm, it's picking up greatly.\"\nSo far, Barnes and Jackson are measuring the success of the station through posts on the city of Laurel's Facebook page. They say some clips receive thousands of hits, and that the page's \"likes\" are increasing at a fervent pace. Currently, the pair are working on finding a system to help measure television ratings, which will help give them a more concrete analysis of the station's growth.\nAnd although progress has been steady, there is still a ways to go.\n\"We are in our building stages, but what we have been able to accomplish has been ambitious and it has been surprisingly faster than we expected,\" Jackson said.\nOne of the bold initiatives Barnes hopes to employ in the future is the production of a full newscast.\n\"The big thing will be starting a newscast, and that's going to take a lot more volunteers,\" Barnes said. \"We have a solid crop of volunteers, and I think we will make it happen.\"\nShe added: \"We are definitely on track, if not ahead of the game.\"\nThis story was updated to clarify details about \"Fitness 365.\"",

        "raw_content": "Several years ago, I began posting candid photos from the last forty years of my life on Instagram. I had no big scheme or vision in mind. I just wanted to share them. The photos were mostly from my vacations with gay male friends at gayish holiday destinations. I quickly started getting a lot of comments in reaction to my photos, which spurred me to post daily, adding extended stories to accompany them. People seemed to like it.\nI started hearing from viewers around the world how they loved my stories. Some even sought me out to meet me when they came to New York. And on a recent trip to London, I met even more fans. I\u2019d never thought of my life as particularly unique or interesting to others, but it seemed I had tapped into something unexpected.\nToday, 10,000+ devoted followers from around the world regularly visit my Instagram account, BAMMER47, drawn by the visual experience of those photos, the look back into LGBTQ history, and evidence of a tight-knit camaraderie that existed among urban gay men and lesbians in the 1960s through 1990s.\nPeople suggested I create a book featuring my photos. A friend introduced me to an ex-New Yorker, Tom Walker, a photographer, designer, and producer of coffee table books, as a potential curator/editor of my book. Strangely, Tom and I had moved in the same circles in NYC over a long period, but we\u2019d never met. Having shared similar experiences to mine over the past few decades, Tom lamented the present day lack of community, compared to what had existed before, and suggested there was perhaps something bigger and more impactful I could achieve with my efforts.\nHe explained that what I was offering wasn\u2019t just photos, but stories told by a gay man who had lived through the momentous era of \u201cgay liberation\u201d and the AIDS crisis over the previous decades. And he pointed out that sharing my personal experiences with others was what had resonated so profoundly with them.\nWhat if we could get others to share their personal experiences, too? Just as my stories have connected me to people all over the world, perhaps we could create a place where others share their experiences and get similarly connected. And we could create a community based on storytelling and shared experiences.\nIn addition, we both feel strongly that there are many incredible stories from our collective LGBTQ past that will be lost to time, if they aren\u2019t shared now\u2014NOT the big stories of the Stonewall Riots, the AIDS crisis, and marriage equality, but the smaller, personal stories of our lives as LGBTQ people.\nInitially, we called the site Capturing Rainbows, but as our efforts have grown beyond just preserving stories of our past, and as BAMMER47 continues to expand, we have renamed the site BAMMER.co to more closely align the two efforts. In the beginning, the site was focused on gay male history (albeit with dozens of straight men and women allies, lesbians, and trans people in the beta group), but we\u2019re now intent on broadening the membership and content to reflect the full diversity we represent.\nThat is how the BAMMER community began. We look forward to your stories and you becoming part of us. And, stay tuned as we reveal more of our plans for growing our community, both online and off.\nFor more information about contributing to BAMMER, please contact Mike Balaban or Tom Walker.",

        "raw_content": "If you have acquired a bankruptcy notice or court order you must respond right away to minimise future grief. Owing somebody money referred to here as a creditor, may be any person or company to whom you owe money. If you\u2019re unfit to pay money to a creditor, the creditor will consult with the Australian Financial Security Authority (AFSA) who will subsequently dispense a bankruptcy notice demanding payment of that money.\nNot surprisingly, there is a limit to the level of money owing to creditors before they can speak to the AFSA, and the minimum amount is $5,000. After the creditor has gotten hold of a final judgment, AFSA will issue you with a bankruptcy notice.\nIt\u2019s essential that you take prompt action if you receive a bankruptcy notice from the AFSA. You will commit an \u2018act of bankruptcy\u2019 if you fail to do any of the following:\nComply with the bankruptcy notice inside the requested timeframe described on the notice (normally 21 days); or\nApply to the courts to ask for the bankruptcy notice be cancelled or set aside within the timeframe mentioned on the notice (normally 21 days).\nCommitting an act of bankruptcy suggests that you give your creditor the permission to apply to the Federal Circuit Court for a sequestration order, or in simple terms, an order that will make you legally bankrupt.\nA bankruptcy notice could be served to you in a variety of ways; it could be validly served to you in person, by normal post, or hand delivered to your registered address. In special scenarios, a bankruptcy notice may be served in an electronic format, either by means of email or fax.\nIf it\u2019s not achievable for a creditor to serve a bankruptcy notice using any of the above means, a court order may be secured which permits creditors to serve the bankruptcy notice in a different way.\nTo satisfy a bankruptcy notice, you must do one of three things:\nYou must pay in full the amount listed in the bankruptcy notice; or\nOrganise an agreement with the creditor, for example a payment plan over a specific time period. The creditor must agree to the payment arrangements terms. It\u2019s always advocated that the agreement is made in writing so you have evidence of the agreement.\nGet someinsolvency advice. At this point, you must not delay and get some help. If you have a notice of bankruptcy, simply phone us here at Bankruptcy Experts Albury on 1300 795 575 for a Free Consultation.\nIt is crucial to note that all of these actions must be taken inside the timeframe mentioned in the bankruptcy notice (usually 21 days from the date of the notice).\nIf warranted, you can apply to the court to have the bankruptcy notice set aside or cancelled. This should not be taken lightly however, because if there are unsatisfactory grounds to make an application then you will be subject to pay all the creditors legal expenses which only inflates the debt you owe to them.\nIf you do apply for your bankruptcy notice to be set aside, it\u2019s always a clever idea to request that the court prolongs the timeframe for compliance with the bankruptcy notice, so you keep away from committing an act of bankruptcy while the court processes your application. In short, don\u2019t leave it to the last minute.\nYou have grounds for a counter-claim, cross demand, or set-off, equal to or exceeding the amount of debt issued in the bankruptcy notice; or\nTo demonstrate that the debt claimed on your bankruptcy notice does not exist, you need to provide evidence that:\nYou have appealed the order by launching proceedings to set aside the order or judgement.\nIn your application to set aside the bankruptcy notice, you can not simply say that you have a genuine argument to do so. You must have already filed the appropriate documents with the court that handed down the order. Further, you must have the ability to supply evidence to the Federal Circuit Court that displays that you have a legitimate case for grounds of appeal.\nFurther, if you do not start the process of setting aside the judgement or order prior to filing your application to set aside the bankruptcy notice, the Federal Circuit Court will not have the ability to extend the timeframe for compliance under sections 41( 6A) and 41( 6C) of the Act. For this reason, you will have committed an act of bankruptcy.\nA defect in the form or content of the bankruptcy notice appears when the creditor has failed to satisfy the requirements of the Act, in which case you might have grounds to make an application for the bankruptcy notice to be set aside. Some defects are more arduous than others, and not all defects will make a bankruptcy notice invalid as these defects can be remedied at the discretion of the court under s 306( 1) of the Act.\nIn most cases, the defect must be serious or induce confusion over the actions you must take to abide by the bankruptcy notice for you to have the ability to set aside the bankruptcy notice.\nThere are some crucial requirements of a bankruptcy notice and if these requirements aren\u2019t met, the bankruptcy notice will therefore be invalid. The following provides some examples where these necessary requirements have not been met:\nThe creditor\u2019s address on the bankruptcy notice needs to make it reasonably practicable for the debtor to make payment (e.g. PO Boxes may not be suitable);\nIf the creditor is claiming interest on the debt owed to them, the calculations must be itemised in an independent document attached to the notice; and.\nIf any part-payments made by the debtor, or any other allowed reductions, the total amount of these deductions must be itemised in an independent document attached to the notice.\nThe following outlines some situations where bankruptcy notice defects have not been considerable enough to make them void:\nThe creditor\u2019s address is listed as the address of their solicitors (assuming payment can be reasonably made to this address).\nThere are several other legal requirements that should be noted. These include:\nThe order or judgement must be at least $5,000, not including any post judgement interest being claimed by the creditor;\nA bankruptcy notice can still be issued if the total amount is less than $5,000, provided that the total amount was in excess of $5,000 when the order or judgements were pronounced;\nA bankruptcy notice must be founded on a final judgement or order that is presently owing to a creditor under s 40( 3) of the Act. A final judgement is defined as a judgement which finally disposes of the rights of the parties involved;\nA bankruptcy notice must be served with six months of its issue. The only exception is if the Official Receiver (reg 4.02 A) has increased this timeframe;\nThe final order or judgement must not be stayed both at the time of issue of the notice and the time of its service. If a stay of execution is granted after service, it has no bearing on the bankruptcy notice;\nAn overstatement of the amount claimed to be owed to a creditor does not revoke a bankruptcy notice, unless the debtor disputes the validity of the notice inside the timeframe for compliance (s 41( 5)); and.\nThe order or judgment on which the bankruptcy notice is based can not be more than 6 years old (s 41( 3)( c)).\nTo succeed using the grounds of counter-claim, set-off or cross demand, you will need to properly demonstrate to the court the following two items:\nThe counter-claim, set-off or cross demand is equal to or more than the total amount claimed by the creditor in the bankruptcy notice. You must also satisfy the court that these claims are certified and have a realistic likelihood of succeeding; and.\nThe counter-claim, set-off or cross demand was not set up in the proceeding where the creditor obtained the judgement on which the bankruptcy notice is based upon. Failure to take advantage of the opportunity to counter-claim, including any adversarial personal circumstances (for instance lack of evidence or legal advice), will not be sufficient.\nAn abuse of process transpires if you can substantiate that the reasons behind the bankruptcy notice is to pressure you to pay a debt, instead of a legitimate effort by the creditor to invoke the court\u2019s jurisdiction in regard to bankruptcy. If the former is true, then you will have the option to set aside the bankruptcy notice because of an abuse of process. To be successful using these grounds, you will need to produce evidence of collateral purpose or unwarranted pressure.\nWhat If I think I have grounds to act on one of these items above?\nIf you feel that you have a case for one of the abovementioned reasons to contend your bankruptcy, you will need to get the following documents prepared, filed, and served in order to apply for your bankruptcy notice to be set aside:.\nYou can find the requirements for an application to set aside a bankruptcy notice in rule 3.02 of the Rules. You can either request a final order or an interim order.\nFinal orders have to summarise the ideal outcome you want to receive and the legislative basis which the court can approve this decision. An example of a final order might be: \u201cThat bankruptcy notice (BN00231) issued on 15 June 2017, which was served to me on 1 July 2017, be set aside under section 30( 1) of the Bankruptcy Act 1966.\u201d You would also have to present a copy of the bankruptcy notice with your application.\nHowever, an interim order should outline any outcomes you wish before the application is finally decided upon, and the legislative basis which the court can approve this decision. An example of an interim order could be: \u201cThe time for compliance with bankruptcy notice (BN00233) be lengthened up to and including 7 days after the outcome of this application by the Court under section 41( 6A) of the Bankruptcy Act 1966.\u201d.\nIf you intend to make an application, it must be accompanied by an affidavit which illustrates the grounds of your application coupled with the date the bankruptcy notice was served to you. If you\u2019ve already made an application to set aside the judgement of the bankruptcy notice, a copy of this application/s also needs to be attached. It\u2019s paramount that your affidavit must fulfill rule 3.02 of the Rules, otherwise your application may be rejected and your request for an extension of time to satisfy the bankruptcy notice may not be approved.\nAfter your documents are completed, they will need to be filed with the courts either online or face to face at the Federal Circuit Court Registry.\nThere is a lodging fee that will need to be paid, however in specific scenarios you can apply for a waiver of this fee.\nOnce you\u2019ve submitted your application and affidavit and they have been stamped, you must personally serve these documents to the creditor within 3 days after the documents have been submitted.\nIf you are an individual, you must personally take the documents to the person identified on the document and hand it to them. If they decide not to receive the documents, the individual serving them may put the document in the presence of the individual to be served and verbally announce to the person what the documents entail.\nIf you are a business, you must personally visit a registered office of the business and deliver the documents to an individual servicing that organisation. You don\u2019t need to hand over the documents to the organisations principal workplace, the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) will supply you with a list of that organisations registered addresses.\nIf you would prefer another person to serve the documents, you can get a bailiff of the court or a process server to serve the documents for a fee.\nIf you\u2019re not clear whether you have grounds to set aside the bankruptcy notice, or you\u2019re doubtful whether you should invest the time and money to apply as a result of financial reasons, speak with Bankruptcy Experts Albury on 1300 795 575 for free advice.

        "raw_content": "An Other's Mind\nby Mpa Msw Luis QuirosMpa Msw Luis Quiros\nIn An Other's Mind you get a firsthand look at the yet unaddressed core issue that has rendered the United States a more sharply divided nation than ever. Fact is, we may all share the same longing that ours be a society that is fair, just, free, equal and democratic, but these themes, fundamental as they are, have markedly different contexts for those of us flourishing in the mainstream than for those of us struggling at the margins. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" />\nAn impaired person might for example perceive that it is only fair that at the expense of the rest of us public places be rendered handicapped-accessible so that he or she might have entree to what the rest of us take as a given. Yet a post 60's populace, weaned on New Order, think tank, paradigms, seems to more and more agree that true fairness demands that we all, crippled and able-bodied alike, surmount the same flight of stairs on our own.\nMore so than race, class, culture, politics, language, and so forth, it is this divergence of perception that buries even the most basic and well-intended initiatives of social policy in a maelstrom of heated, discordant ambiance and which constitutes the newest frontier in the battle for social progress and a truly united nation.\nRecognizing this and the urgent interest that we might yet come to understand one another and thereby reach greater accord as human beings, Luis Quiros delivers, in this unique volume, a first call to arms, by offering you a rich, vivid, personal and visionary look at the inner workings and arcs of critical thought that percolate inside an other's mind.\n= -Lee Stringer, award-winning author of Grand Central Winter: Stories From the Street; Like shaking Hands With God, and <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" />Sleepaway School, Stories From a Boy's Life.\nBy Luis Quiros\nCopyright \u00a9 2011 Luis Quiros, MPA, MSW\nOn July 2, 1997, when I was fired from a job I did well\u2014and at which many failed\u2014I became driven to find out why my lifelong \"process of becoming\" seemed to be filled with punishing consequences. I guess what I had not learned was the degree of difficulty in understanding and preventing a European mindset from defining and viewing me as Other and treated as excess population, without surrendering who I was.\nSo I retraced my life to find new knowledge that could help me predict when and where negative-based experiences might recur so I could avoid venting my frustration the wrong way. Without a different approach in dealing with my anger I was aware that I might find myself out on the street, alone, without resources and unable to defend Others also experiencing similar frustrations.\nStrategies included reading and rereading English literature, history, philosophy, religious studies, sociology, law, and the work of community organizers, social workers, and mental health workers. Most important was speaking to Others from distant places and college students about \"commonalities.\" As Others we often concluded that the start to our punishing consequences couldn't have been \"what we did, didn't do, should, or could have done.\" We also agreed that our struggles caused by the barriers to equality must have some reciprocal effects upon the oppressors. Where there had been hidden culprits and false perceptions, we personally wanted to expose and hold people accountable whom had prevented us from giving tomorrow its appropriate attention and \"often kept us thirsty before building our wells.\"\nHowever, before I could expose and hold people accountable I had to learn to recognize and understand \"power language,\" whose clever application upon Others distorts the truth. Without that, my aim\u2014to expose the nation's passion for horrific social and historical myths, i.e., Western civilization is superior and Americans are European in origin\u2014 supported by billions of dollars of research on teaching methods only to arrive at suggestions that are malicious or so obvious, some even silly, attempts to compromise the fundamental right of Others' scholarship and empowerment. The lesson that became evident to me was that: \"The purpose of education in class society is not to educate. It is to give 'the educated' a stake in thinking they are going to be different than [O]ther people who work all their lives.\"\nAmong those myths, the ones I despised the most were those that protected a one-size-fits-all mindset\u2014a product of the melting-pot syndrome. The simplification of this complex modi operandi, modo de operar, or assumption that they were already aware of the many social issues being confronted by us had had its tenure with me. Though it took many years, concepts that you can produce equality while combating Otherism and propagandizing sameness became easily detectable to me as racist, stress-inducing, and traumatizing. No longer was I going to allow people to tell Others different from them to participate in a process that would reshape them to be as \"civilized\" and \"moral\" as they are.\nFor combating this one-size-fits-all myth I often retraced the power structure's profiling strategies. For example, by putting myself at risk (and knowingly committing an irresponsible and ignorant act), I equated White-collar crimes during the mid to late 1990s as a cultural problem inherent to the race that dominated its apparent successes\u2014crimes by the men wearing suits. As men scammed millions\u2014and billions\u2014I waited for branding, stereotype, and authorship of the economic collapse of this nation as being White; and equal to the same military force used when they landed on the shores of this nation; and with the same social intensity that defined Black and Brown as unsophisticated, lazy, prone to crime, and welfare dependant.\nThis nation's strategy of ethnic profiling became one tool of many employing the \"new racism\"\u2014not a color-conscience racism that relied on strict racial segregation such as \"White only\" signs\u2014but the racism with moral arguments that promoted equal opportunity while undermining the use of racial and ethnic categories. Being colorblind is an example; lasting avenues for advancement are not provided, and in fact, use \"logic\" to avoid addressing the need for affirmative action, reparations, and even empathy.\nThe power behind this new racism carried its force by preserving some of the universally accepted and clever economic justification of the old racism. As, for example, \"all things being equal\" (condiciones estando igual) though the \"things\" (aunque las cosas) referred to, (de que estan hablando), had unequal access and harder for poor people to obtain, (nunca se puede conseguir en las misma condiciones que ellos tuvieron). The more recent and extremely complex dialogue to extract its racial component included the imagery or choreography of \"leveled playing fields,\" (el lugar del juego de competicion esta igual). Here, we often learned after years of frustration and disappointments that the pursuit of happiness for people in the middle- and lower-class meant learning to be satisfied stuck playing in vulnerable fields\u2014clever use of a word associated with leisure time. Worse yet, the fields\u2014such as places of work and classrooms\u2014were applied strategies to sustain difficult access to opportunities that would lead to more of life's choices and our autonomy.\nI also spent time practicing how to exist in a more alert and intellectual state. I was figuring out that street smarts required \"partnering\" with scholarship, and scholarship required street smarts. Once I solidified scholarship and street smarts as partners, I understood why community organizing required a commitment to civil disobedient strategies. Fifty-eight years of age, thirty years after the violence that defined 1968, and two graduate degrees were not nearly enough to have learned to defend myself against the effects of \"power language\" and to make better choices. Race and class were so deeply rooted definitions of this nation that a different focus was necessary in order to distinguish between forms of racism that are intentional and conscious and yet justified by nonracial arguments, and those that are unintentional using racially-based myths. The hardest to debate were the intentional racial comments hiding under nonracial logic\u2014the racist component was easily deniable. Unsurprisingly, racial events and language were more troubling to me when directed at Other people and communities. Therefore, while in search of the right questions to defend those with less power, the people I associated with or from whom I sought advice from consisted of scholars, the well read and the poorest.\nIn time I learned how social and welfare policy, the law, and the reasoning behind the absence of policy made it easy to miss the detours I should have made to avoid the social traps and retardants built on myths.\nThe Retrace\nMy mother, a dark skinned and attractive woman, was born in Santurce, Puerto Rico; my White father was born in Caracas, Venezuela. I was born in 1945 at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. Though I was the middle child of the first set of three, I was delegated enormous responsibility and taught to be my siblings' protector because I was the oldest boy. We lived in a three-bedroom apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side, near the Juilliard School and the City College of New York.\nMy mother was aware before the creation of Puerto Rico as a Commonwealth, 1950\u201352, how this nation's focus on the accumulation of wealth created a country that demanded patriotism, exalted capitalism, but too often could not accommodate morality. She believed in God more than the US government. And in spite of the negativity toward Latinos, my parents quickly learned to navigate New York.\nContrary to the trend, it was my parents' decision to live among a community that looked and spoke like them. As children and young adults we were never told to dance around the raindrops to avoid the discrimination. If we did not succeed, it was our fault. Whether this was a form of denial or a strategy, we were not allowed to feel victimized. Ironically, my desire to be viewed differently from the Latino stereotype translated into showing support for White television family programming at my expense as well as all other communities of color. Not until my early twenties did I start recognizing that by avoiding all commonalties\u2014including the biological blood relationships\u2014between our community and the Black community I was contributing to this nation's legacy of racism.\nIn 1951, pre\u2013Brown v. Board of Education era, my parents pulled me out of first grade in a public school because if I arrived late I would be asked to leave the building. Unable to catch up to my parents' departing car I would walk around Harlem for the day.\nIn parochial schools I learned God loved me; I had a lot to be thankful for and I shouldn't expect more. White kids were privy to the expectation they would make great doctors or lawyers some day.\nA passion for preserving our culture was a constant in our home. Romantic Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Cuban boleros played continually on our record player. My mother hardly ever missed The Liberace Show, which was famous during the 1950s for offering a range of popular and classical standards, and for its tributes to composers and musicians of various genres of music. No doubt, the most loving moments I experienced were just sitting next to her as she duplicated Liberace's show on her piano, adding her own medley of romantic boleros; our native culture flourishing side by side with that of our chosen country of residency. She collected 78-rpm records, played the piano, never smoked or consumed alcohol, and worked tirelessly to disguise the reality of our stress-filled social and economic condition. Among my most long lasting childhood memories were visiting El Barrio and La Marqueta with my mother in East Harlem's Park Avenue to buy only the freshest of produce items. There she taught me how to select fruits, vegetables, provisions, and the best meats and live poultry.\nCorpus Christi was a Dominican Order nun-run parochial school on 121st Street, just east of Broadway, in a middle-income neighborhood characterized by blocks of low-rise brick apartment buildings and small, privately owned grocery, candy, and drug stores. At Corpus Christi, now six years of age, I met the White bully Otto, who for years would send me home with bruises and a prepared speech to my parents explaining how I kept bumping into things. There were times, when speaking to God, I asked for permission to shoot Otto\u2014and others like him\u2014and be blessed for it. And some of us did shoot people like Otto.\nMy residence in a Latino neighborhood while attending Corpus Christi meant a physically demanding walk against strong winds hitting my small and skinny body. Occasionally, my brother, Carlos, and I shared a monthly bus pass tucked in a heavy plastic case. Carlos would get on the bus first and throw the pass out the window for me to take the next bus home. When it got too cold I would walk through the Julliard School of Music, get warm, and ask myself why no one looked like my musically gifted mother. When the weather was sunny and I did not feel like going home, I would walk a few blocks south on Broadway and watch the students play tennis at Barnard College, across the street from historically White Columbia. I wondered why they all looked like the students at Julliard.\nIn contrast to the public school teachers, who tended to ignore my presence, the nuns were constantly in my face. My parents viewed nuns and priests as the highest authorities. Knowing this prevented me from telling them that I was often asked to sit in the back, forced to write with my right hand though I was left handed, and, worst of all, constantly reminded that the holidays were for the White and Irish Catholic communities. I eventually gave up writing with my right hand and compromised by imitating the manner in which the right-handed students angled the paper.\nDuring my years in elementary school, doctoral students of the historically White Columbia University and Teachers College would often ask my mother if my brother and I would submit to timed psychological tests. These tests utilized, among other things, blocks, puzzles, different shapes of paper, number sequence computations, and multiple choice questions. My mother always complied. I never understood how they knew about me, but it did not matter. I worked my hardest to succeed. I was more curious than they were about my intellect, aptitude, and motivation. I often attempted to interpret the examiner's face. If I read an expression of disappointment or saw any sign of negativity, I asked if I could take the test over. My determination did not improve the test scores. I was defined by the evaluators as tenacious and unusually serious. I never knew what they meant by \"unusually serious,\" but a lot of people said that about me. I was also defined as a disturbance in second grade and often sent to the principal's office to sit for long periods of time. I possibly should not have been surprised when I was required to repeat second grade. It was then when I built an intimate friendship with Tommy Mulligan, known simply as Mulligan\u2014an Irish Catholic who lived with his grandmother.\nIt was not until the third grade that I felt any sort of educational support. A Maryknoll nun stepped into my life. Sister Bernadette, having recently arrived after serving many years in Africa, would put her arm around my shoulders, and I could feel that she \"liked\" me. My achievement soared, and I was never late for class. I lost contact with my Maryknoll relationship in the fourth grade, which may account for the decline in my academic performance. However, two notable experiences occurred. My walk to Corpus Christi was shortened as we moved closer to my grandmother on West 125th Street, and I was now living within a community of White Catholics and Orthodox Jews. This move allowed me to hang out with Mulligan. Together, and through most of elementary school, we enjoyed the ease of earning money by carrying packages for the elderly from local supermarkets and packing the food away for them, or collecting bottles from Harlem construction sites for the five cent deposit. This economic and service mindset would serve us well for years to come.\nBy fifth grade, Otto's younger brother, a fourth grader, started bullying me. It did not work out as well for him, because I kicked his ass from one end of the block to the other, not stopping until I saw blood. Unwilling to see his younger brother humiliated by a \"spic,\" Otto stopped the fight and continued to beat him.\nIn seventh grade, my friends signed up as altar boys or joined the choir. I too decided to enroll. Because my Latin was deemed inadequate, I was assigned to help the priest celebrate benediction\u2014a ceremony where the host, the symbol of the body and blood of Jesus, was not present. Benediction was only on Friday nights\u2014an assignment the other boys did not desire. I later wondered about my unworthiness to transact with the body and blood of Jesus in the eyes of the community in which I lived.\nNot knowing exactly what my parents were in search of that could improve my brother's and my academic performance, we were transferred in the eighth grade to a catholic school in Washington Heights. The neighborhood was shared between the Irish Catholic and Jewish communities. The Good Shepherd Academy, operated by Christian Brothers, was a short walk from the subway stop on Nagle Avenue. I recalled how when the classroom windows were open I could hear beggars call and ring out, \"Alms for the poor!\" or knife sharpeners calling for customers.\nIt was around this time that I started thinking about how skin color defined class. The cowboy movies that fueled the goodness of \"White\" reinforced attaching \"darkness\" to a class. I finally took notice that the crayon color called \"flesh\" did not match mine. It was a good thing that I developed some street smarts as I entered this new neighborhood. Noticing that the Christian Brothers would hit harder and with more frequency than nuns, I quickly buckled down, studied, and learned what that missing piece was that my parents were in search of. I became one of the top academic achievers.\nExcerpted from An Other's Mind by Luis Quiros Copyright \u00a9 2011 by Luis Quiros, MPA, MSW. Excerpted by permission of AuthorHouse. All rights reserved.

Speaking from his own experiences as a Puerto Rican man, he demonstrates how the personal and the political combine to both harm the individual and our neighborhoods and country. Quiros highlights some of the micro-aggressions that occur to many people on a daily basis. I am reminded of the Puerto Rican man who told me once that his car was vandalized and he was almost assaulted by a gang of youths who mistakenly thought he was an Arab after 9/11. Also, a black man with his White girlfriend entering the subway being stopped by the police to search his bag while his girlfriend was left alone. It is important for all Americans to stand up for what is right and Quiros is a good role model, helping us to recognize discrimination and then to take action. I can highly recommend this book for all of those who want to know more about the injustices in our society and one man's struggle and protest.\nB-leen More than 1 year ago\nThe brilliance that comes out in this book, 'An Other's Mind' helps people see society and communities as individuals, and yet as a whole system, that without each other would fail. The book opens the readers' eyes to the problems the macrosystems tend to oversee. This book can ideally be used in any classroom or leisure reading, speaking from the eyes of a true fighter for equality, Quiros knows the hardships and has seen both sides. A book that is not just all talk and no action, this is by far one of the best books I have read in my 4 years in school.\nI have be fortunate enough to have been able to take classes with Luis Quiros. He is a brilliant man. He helps people see what others either don't want us to see or we choose not to. Inspirational book that will help you grow as a person",

        "raw_content": "All You Need to Know About Conventional Financing All You Need to Know About Conventional Financing\nAll You Need to Know About Conventional Financing\nIf you have an idea about the various types of loans offered in Malaysia, you should have come across the main differentiators \u2013 Conventional and Islamic financing. Let\u2019s take a look at what conventional financing is and how you can benefit from choosing a conventional loan product.\nWhat is Conventional Financing?\nSimply put, it is a type of financing where financial institutions offer cash to borrowers and charge interest on the principal amount. The borrowers will have to repay the loan amount along with the rate of interest on a monthly basis until the completion of the loan tenure.\nThe following types of loans come under conventional financing:\nFixed Rate Term Loan\nA fixed rate term loan is offered to those who are looking for a financing scheme at a fixed interest rate. The interest rate remains fixed even if there are changes in the Base Rate (BR) and Overnight Price Rate (OPR). In Malaysia, the duration of a fixed rate term loans come with a tenure 35 years or till you are 70 years of age. Even though the monthly payments are much lower, the rate of interest is higher due to the long tenure.\nVariable Interest Rate Term Loan\nA variable or a floating interest rate loan comes with varying rates of interest. If there are any changes to the OPR or BR, it affects the interest rates of all the variable loan schemes directly. Unlike fixed rate term loans, the rate of interest is usually much lower. This is one of the major reasons why many Malaysians opt for them.\nA flexi loan gives the borrower the option to make payments in advance to reduce the rate of interest and cash withdrawals whenever they want to during the tenure of the loan. You need to open a current account when you opt for a flexi loan. When you make repayments in advance, the interest rate for that particular day reduces. If you continue doing so, not just the interest rate, but the loan tenure also reduces.\nSemi-Flexi Loan\nSemi-flexi is similar to a flexible loan, just that the borrower will not be able to withdraw cash whenever they want during the loan tenure. They will need to take the bank\u2019s permission to get access to cash, and it is up to the bank to agree or disagree with the request. However, the option of advance payments is available, which will help in reducing the burden of a high-interest rate.\nWhat are The Benefits of Conventional Financing?\nIf you want to make any changes to your loan, you need to up-stamp the agreement you have signed with the bank, which won\u2019t cost you much.\nThe loans comes with a high margin of financing.\nMost major banks in Malaysia offer conventional financing.\nLoan disbursement is quick and hassle-free.\nCertain plans offer 100% property financing.\nDifference between Conventional and Islamic Financing\nConventional financing is based on the concept of making interest. Islamic financing, on the other hand, is Shariah-based, which is against the concept of lending money. Islamic financing buys the product on behalf of the borrower and sells it back to them at a profit rate.Banks in Malaysia provide both conventional and Islamic financing.\nWho Should Apply For a Conventional Loan?\nApplicants with an average or a good credit score.\nApplicants with a higher Debt Service Ratio (DSR).\nApplicants who have the ability to save more can opt for flexi home loans.\nApplicants who want to pay a minimum monthly instalment can opt for a fixed or a variable rate term loan.\nThose who are eligible for certain conventional home schemes such as Skim Rumah Pertamaku (SRP)/First House Deposit Financing Scheme which is specifically for first-time home buyers.\nIf you are thinking of taking a conventional loan, you need to do a research to find the best home loan schemes offered in Malaysia. Compare the options available depending on your unique requirements and make a choice.",

        "title": "The Akitu Festival and Its Derivatives",
        "raw_content": "from GreyLodge Website\nrecovered through GoogleCache Service\nTHE IMPORTANCE of festivals in the ancient world may best be illustrated in the New Year\u2019s Festival in Ancient Sumer.\nThis is known as the AKITU Festival (A.KI.TU. = On Earth Build Life), and was celebrated in Babylon (click below image) and other cities, the most important being ANU\u2019s cult centre, URUK (the biblical Erech), on the 1st - 10th of the month of Nisan.\nIn the Age of Aries this corresponds with the first decan of Aries.\nThe original for this festival was the famous state visit to Sumer paid by ANU and his Queen-Consort ANTU. This occurred circa 3800 BCE.\nIn terms of the Time System, this would be:\nA. Kalpa 3, Manvantara 7, Mahayuga 28, Yuga 1, Sar 2, Ner 6, Sossu 10. We cannot state with any certainty which year it would have been. Sar 3, Ner 1, Sossu 1 is when we place the establishment of the Nippur Calendar (i.e., 3773 BCE).\nB. Age of Taurus, 3rd Decan (23\u00b0-22\u00b0), most likely the 23\u00b0. This covers the years 3876 - 3804 BCE. It is said that from this important event, two important things were bequeathed to humankind:\n1. The New Year Rituals, which evolved from the Sumerian AKITU Festival, whose roots can be traced to this event.\n2. The Calendar, or the measurement of Time, was granted to humankind. This led to celestial observations, and to the creation of a long-running tradition of Astronomer-priests.\nIn the Kalachakra Tantra, we found that its origin was as a secret sermon preached by the Buddha at the time of his famous Vulture Peak Sermon. This sermon was requested by King Suchandra of Shambhala.\nSome people, generally the more reactionary of the anti-occultists, find nothing but evil in the name Shambhala.\nWe do not recognize this to be the case. In fact, what we have found is that Shambhala, like Nietzsche and his ideas, and just about any other powerful concept or person from the past, has been co-opted by the fascistic elements in the social-control department. The New Age is nothing of the sort.\nIn fact for the most part it is the same damnable thing repackaged, like a warmed-over TV dinner. Bear this in mind when reading the theories we are postulating.\nOur theories, based on our research, are as follows:\n1. We have identified Shambhala with the Celestial Palace atop Mount Meru. Mount Meru is to be found in southwestern Tibet. It is called Mount Kailasa, where thousands of pilgrims go every year. It is Shiva\u2019s mountain. Every year, the B\u00f6n-pas and the Nyingmapas celebrate a New Year\u2019s Day festival which is similar to the Akitu Festival.\nThey erect the phallic pole in the valley below the mountain. This is symbolic of the antenna-like beacon the DurAnKi is supposed to be. Interestingly enough, not far from this location we have cave cities which resemble the cave communities in the Dead Sea region, and those in New Mexico. Mount Meru is Mount Su-Meru.\nThe earthly Meru is where the focus point, the communication beacon, as it were, is. And Meru, in the human body, is the Sushumna Nadi.\n2. We could go a step further and suggest that the Kings of Shambhala are successors to and/or holders of the Anu-ship, Lord of Nibiru. There is nothing far-fetched in any of this.\nIt would seem that sometime circa 973 BCE, a new Dynasty of Kings was initiated, beginning with Suchandra. Perhaps it is due to some natural cycle that is peculiar to the 12th Planet.\nAt 173 BCE, the Maccabees started their short-lived rule, and this facilitated the creation of the Chasidim, which had its origins in the Chaldean Priesthood, (as Chasdim is seen to be another term for Chaldean), which led to the Messianic Movement and to the Essenes and Pharisees. These in their turn led to Rabbinic Judaism and Gnosticism, as well as the religion called Christianity by billions today. But, the major events in the West took place much later than 173 BCE.\nAlso, this same year, Antiochus Epiphanes seized control of Coele-Syria and Judea. Two years earlier he seized the throne of the Seleucid empire. It is this Emperor who had Nemrud-Deg built in his honor. Perhaps a meeting took place there, between Antiochus, and the Nefilim? Maybe. But in India and Central Asia, greater things were taking place.\nWhile the dates given in the history of the Kalachakra Tradition are hard to fix with much certainty, it is clear that in the year 173 BCE the first KULIKA Initiated so many people into the Kalachakra Tantra that he was the first to receive the name KULIKA. In turn, he was the 8th King of Shambhala, each king ruling 100 years, this means that the first king began his rule 873 BCE.\nAnd, too, it was at this time, roughly, that the Gnostic Traditions in the West were just beginning to develop, via the various philosophical schools and Mystery Rites.\nThis is the closest to a confirmation we can get from any source. The Kalachakra Tradition is not your average bargain basement tradition! Its main thrust is in the Initiation of advanced Buddhist monks into the Sand Mandala of Kalachakra. Once the candidate has been led through the seven gates, and received the seven initiations, it is possible for them to be received in the court of Shambhala.\nShambhala, says the Dalai Lama is not a place we could get to very easily, with our poor excuse of technology. It is very far away, in space. Much like the 12th Planet is very far away, in space.\nThe description in the Kalachakra Tantra, of Shambhala is much like the descriptions given by remote viewers of the Galactic Administration Centers they saw in their visions, and the same thing can be said about Aleister Crowley\u2019s journeys, recorded in The Vision and the Voice, and The Heart of the Master, and perhaps, too, to some extent, in The Amalantrah Working.\nNibiru, then, when it approached, appeared in the North. This is very crucial, since Meru, or Su-Meru, is situated in the North, with a Northerly Orientation. Shambhala, too, is to the North of Tibet, and the Kingdom of Light, of the Mandaeans, is in the North, where the sources of the Celestial Jordan are located.\nThe Mandaeans orient their temples to the North, with a window which allows them to see the Pole Star. In the ceremony known as the \"Calling,\" and the important one, known as the \"Walking,\" in which the Magician is initiated gradually through the Seven Gates, the Gate is to be placed in the North of the Magician\u2019s Temple.\nThe gateway that is in the North, then, would appear to be the four stars in the Great Bear (originally called the Constellation of the Wagon).\nThe Planet of Great Anu appearing in Constellation of the Wagon\nAs Earth, and the other planets rotate around the Sun, it appears that the Sun rotates clockwise, yet the Earth goes counterclockwise around the Sun, as do the other planets.\nNibiru rotates in a clockwise direction, viz:\nNibiru crossing other Planets\u2019 orbits\nThen it would appear that this planet comes toward the Earth from the North, whereas the other planets are visible east to west, along the southern part of the sky.\nThis would also say that Nibiru is the Planet of Crossing:\nThe Reappearance of the Planet Nibiru\nThe rituals associated with the AKITU festival are said to have their origins in the State visit of ANU and ANTU.\nANU and ANTU bestowed the Calendar upon humankind, as the Kalachakra Tantra was similarly bestowed, with the endorsement of the Kings of Shambhala.\nSuch correlations between ritual and astronomical occurrences can be seen today in the practices of the Dogon Tribe in Mali, who, every 50 years or so, reenact the activities associated with the Stars and/or Planets in the Sirius system. \"As Above, So Below\" is not just a platitude. There are real events, real celestial bodies, real persons involved.\nImagine then, enacting on Earth, in Earth-Time, ritual events taking place in the heavens in Space-Time, simultaneously, and in times past. This is religion par excellence.\nThis is not simply the reenactment of the story of a god dying and being reborn so the crops will grow. This deals with events in our solar system, not merely aspects of our subconscious or our psyche.\nThe Enuma Elish is a story which should be read and interpreted by all who are interested in these subjects, and understood in the light of The Code of the Eternal.\nThere are many stories of origins in the Sumerian \u2019myths\u2019 which give credence to an Extraterrestrial Origin of humankind, and to the speculations of Science. Cold, hard, physical fact-based Science. Science!\nIn fact, it is a definite \u2019given\u2019 that the first part of Genesis, in the Hebrew Bible, from the Creation to the Deluge, was taken from Babylonian and Sumerian originals, both as inherited traditions, and as material received from the priests of Babylon, during the Captivity, for we know that the Old Testament was not written before the Captivity.\n[Note: for the most part, what follows is extracted, from 'ANCIENT IRAQ,' by Georges Roux, and from the writings of Zecharia Sitchin. Some of these items are paraphrased to allow for space. However, this is for information purposes only, not to profit at someone else\u2019s expense.]\nThe Akitu procession\n(From W. Andrae, Das wieder entstandene Assur, 1977)\nThe AKITU Festival can be outlined as follows (after ANCIENT IRAQ, by Georges Roux):\nThe Akitu festival was celebrated once a year at the beginning of Spring. In those days humankind was a part of the natural process, and the ritual acts performed by humans counted for something. One thing, such acts kept humankind from going over the brink, into chaos, which was to be avoided at all costs, that was the law.\nIt is said that the Akitu Festival derived from two specific currents of ancient thought:\n1. An extremely old Fertility cult, which included seasonal feasts and a Sacred Marriage ceremony; and\n2. A more recent cosmogony developed by the theologians of Nippur in which the creation of the world was credited to Enlil following his victory over Nippur: the creation of the world was attributed to Enlil after his victory over Tiamat and the forces of Chaos.\nThis has parallels in the Enki-ite traditions, because it was first credited to EnKi, (or EA), who was the original hero to fight Tiamat. (His name in this case would be Nudimmud). Later, the credit would go to his son, MarDuk.\nMarduk and his snake dragon\n(from J. Black & A. Green,\nGods, demons and symbols of\nancient Mesopotamia,1992)\nFollowing the Creation of humankind, the regular determination of humanity\u2019s fate was necessary, so the theologians reasoned, therefore the annual oracle and New Year festival.",

        "raw_content": "Heartache for Donald as Funk rules\nFred Funk, a 48-year-old with one victory in the last seven years, has become the oldest-ever winner of golf's richest event.\nFunk captured the #4.5million Players Championship by getting up and down from a greenside bunker at the last - and was able to start celebrating a remarkable victory minutes later when England's Luke Donald agonisingly missed his 22-foot birdie attempt from just over the back of the green.\n\"I am speechless right now,\" said Funk, who last September became the oldest ever debutant in the Ryder Cup.\n\"I didn't fathom this happening and I'm just so excited. I can't believe I won this thing - I'm overwhelmed.\"\nAfter a weekend wrecked by rain, the tournament went into a fifth day with 33 holes still to play and the field then had to battle with 35mph gusts.\nIt turned the Sawgrass course into a real beast, Bob Tway even taking a tournament record 12 on the island green 17th and Phil Mickelson and Lee Westwood running up quadruple bogey sevens - Westwood when still in contention in the third round.\nFunk got out of the hole with a three and a four, but his heart was in his mouth when his six-iron second to the 72nd and final hole flirted with the lake left of the green.\n\"It scared me to death,\" he said. But the ball clung on to finish in sand, and by saving par all the pressure was on Donald.\nThird round leader after a morning 70, the 27-year-old from High Wycombe could not maintain that standard, but even at four over for the next 17 holes he still had a chance of the #774,193 top prize with one remaining.\nNobody had birdied the 447-yard 18th all day, however, and though he came closer than just about anybody else it was not to be and Sandy Lyle remains the only European to have won this title.\nThat was back in 1987 and since then Nick Faldo, Bernhard Langer, Colin Montgomerie, Padraig Harrington (twice) and now Donald have all been runners-up.\nFunk, who lives close by and had to dash to the course during the week after going home for a sleep during a rain break, was supported by fans known as \"Funk's Punks\".\nHe gave them a hard time by three-putting three times on the back nine, but when it mattered most he made the five-footer on the last for a 71 and nine under par total of 279.\nDonald, finishing with a disappointing 76, shared second spot with American Ryder Cup captain Tom Lehman and Scott Verplank. Lehman fired a brilliant closing 68, but Verplank bogeyed the last for a 70.\nWestwood finished 22nd and Faldo 27th, while Graeme McDowell, in the hunt until he took a double bogey seven midway through his third round, was 40th and both Harrington and Darren Clarke 63rd.\nAs for the big guns, world number one Vijay Singh did best, but he was only joint 12th. Ernie Els was 17th, Mickelson 40th and Tiger Woods an also-ran at 53rd.\nIt was a day then the \"Fab Four\" were pushed aside by the \"Fab Funk.\"\nThe third round had also been wild and, from a spectator's point of view, wonderful - and there was nothing to compare to Tway's adventure.\nThe former US PGA champion put four balls in the water - two over the green, two short of it - and then, having finally found dry land with his fifth attempt, three-putted from 42 feet.\nHe was joint 10th at the time, but fell instantly to two over par and joint 72nd.\nHis score beat by one the tournament record for the hole, set by Robert Gamez in 1990, and equalled the 12 by the little-known Phillip Hancock at the 384-yard fourth in 1985.\nEven without the wind Tway had taken a bogey four on the 17th in the first round and put two balls in the drink for a triple bogey in the second, making him 13 over par for the hole and 11 under for the other 17.\nTake it out of the equation he would have been right in the thick of it, but far from being able to take it out of the equation he had to play it again later in the day.\nIt will come as no comfort to him that he was still a long way from the highest score that the 17th has ever seen.\nIn 1985 Angelo Spagnolo, a 31-year-old grocery store manager, played there in the \"America's Worst Golfer\" contest. He put 27 balls in the water before being told by officials to putt round the lake and over the narrow path to the green.\nHe finished with a card-wrecking 66 and after negotiating the difficult 18th handed in a round of 257. Not surprisingly, he won the title.\nFunk's victory - a year after Adam Scott became the youngest-ever winner - was somewhat different.\nDonald said: \"I'm proud I gave myself a chance, but I don't know too many people who have made birdie there today.\n\"It's a tough enough hole without any wind. I hit a great shot (a 188-yard four-iron) and it pitched maybe four feet to the right of the hole, but unfortunately it just caught the run-off.\n\"If someone had offered me tied second I'd have said 'Yes', especially with my track record here - two missed cuts. But I wouldn't have taken it going into the last round and it's disappointing leading and not winning.\"",

Though tickets are no longer available for the Thursday, November 9 event, the show will air live in its entirety on Radio Bristol that evening at 7:00 p.m. EST at 100.1 FM in the Bristol area and online at ListenRadioBristol.org internationally.\n\u201cIf you missed out on tickets for this program, make sure to get tickets early for December\u2019s Farm and Fun Time Christmas Ball with The Secret Sisters, Jill Andrews, and Bill and the Belles,\u201d said Kris Truelsen, writer and host of Farm and Fun Time. \u201cThis show will sell out fast!\u201d\nThe Farm & Fun Time Christmas Ball takes place Saturday, December 2 at 7:00 p.m. at the Birthplace of Country Music Museum. Tickets to this event are $30 and on sale now at BirthplaceOfCountryMusic.org.\nABOUT JOHN MCEUEN\nFor November\u2019s Farm & Fun Time, John McEuen has continually performed since 1964\u20148,500 concerts and 300 television shows covering more than 3 million miles\u2014with the band and as a solo performer. He has made over 40 albums (6 solo) that have earned four platinum and five gold recognition awards, Grammy nominations, CMA and ACM awards, an Emmy nomination, and IBMA Record of the Year, and he has performed on another 25 albums as a guest artist. McEuen has also produced more than 300 concerts throughout his career\u2014the first in 1965 in Long Beach, California, with Bob Dylan.\nHis production of Steve Martin: The Crow won a Grammy in 2010 for Best Bluegrass Album. The Music of the Wild West, produced by McEuen, was honored with the Western Heritage Award. A Grammy nomination for String Wizards II preceded the 1994 Uncle Dave Macon Award for his excellence in preservation and performance of historic music. On Sirius/XM\u2019s The Bridge, John\u2019s popular Acoustic Traveler show is now in its eighthyear. McEuen produced and directed the 2006 documentary film The Dillards: A Night in the Ozarks, which captures his early mentors at their best. Perhaps the most significant work in his legacy may be what Rolling Stone called \u201cthe most important record to come out of Nashville\u201d\u2014Will the Circle Be Unbroken.\nABOUT THE BROTHER BOYS\nEd Snodderly and Eugene Wolf began their brother-duet as The Brother Boys back in the 1990s, releasing three critically acclaimed recordings: two for Sugar Hill\u2014Plow, produced by Jerry Douglas, and the self-produced Presley\u2019s Grocery\u2014and one for the U.K. label Zu-Zazz Records entitled Mulehead. Years before the term Americana was born, they called their music \u201cNew Hillbilly\u201d as a way to distinguish the blending of country, bluegrass, and rockabilly. They were recently featured on the Great Smoky Mountains Association release, On Top Of Old Smoky: New Old-Time Smoky Mountain Music alongside Dolly Parton and others.\nFarm and Fun Time is a revival of the former WCYB radio\u2019s Farm and Fun Time, which aired from downtown Bristol in the 1940s and 1950s. It features live cut-ins by house band Bill and the Belles, the group Rolling Stone listed among the \u201c20 Best Things We Saw\u201d at AmericanaFest 2016.\nSponsored by Eastman Credit Union, Farm and Fun Time features live seques written and performed by house band Bill and the Belles and the \u201cAppalachian Sustainable Development Farm Report,\u201d hosted by Corbin Hayslett. The farm report was a popular segment on the WCYB program and appointment radio for regional agriculturists who came in from the fields each day to listen to the latest news on area crops. During a pre-produced vignette that airs during the program, the contemporary \u201cfarm report\u201d celebrates farmers in the region who make a positive impact, whether economic, cultural, or through eco-friendly practices.\nFarm and Fun Time\u2018s \u201cHeirloom Recipe\u201d segment gives the community the opportunity to share stories from their southern tables. More storytelling than instruction, these touching oral histories of families coming together around mealtimes and favorite dishes are a treasured reminder of the importance of family and how something as simple as sharing a meal creates memories and brings families together.",

        "title": "Loco Positioning system | Bitcraze",
        "raw_content": "Position awareness\nAdd absolute position to your Crazyflie 2.0 using the Loco Positioning system.\nThe Crazyflie 2.0 (as most other quadcopters and robots) has no real notion of its position in space. The on board sensors (accelerometers and gyros) can be used to give a rough idea of its movements but lacks the accuracy for long term position awareness. The solution is to use an external system that can provide information of the current position. Outside GPS can be used, but indoor the options are limited, often complex, expensive or both. That is why we have created the Loco Positioning system.\nThe Loco Positioning system is a local positioning system that is used to find the absolute 3D position of objects in space. It is in many ways similar to a miniature GPS system. The base of the system is a set of Anchors that are positioned in the room (compare to the satellites in GPS), they are the reference. The other part of the system is one or more Tags (compare to the GPS receiver) that are fixed to the object(s) that are to be tracked. By sending short high frequency radio messages between the Anchors and Tags, the system measures the distance from each Anchor to the Tags and calculates the position of the Tags from that information. All information needed to calculate the position is available in the Tag which enables position estimation on board of the Crazyflie, as opposed to many other positioning systems where the position is calculated in an external computer and sent to the Crazyflie. By adding knowledge of its position to a Crazyflie 2.0 it is capable of flying autonomously without manual control. This opens up an array of exciting use cases and applications.\nThe Loco Positioning Deck\nThe Loco Positioning Deck is a Crazyflie 2.0 expansion deck with the Loco Positioning Tag functionality. Read more on the Loco Positioning Deck page.\nThe Loco Positioning Node\nThe Loco Positioning Node is a multi functional node in a Loco Positioning system, it can act either as an Anchor or Tag. As an Anchor it is part of the reference base for the system while running in Tag mode it can be attached to an object to track, for instance a robot. Read more on the Loco Positioning Node page.\nPositioning modes\nThe Loco Positioning System implements three different positioning modes, Two Way Ranging (TWR), Time Difference of Arrival 2 (TDoA 2) and Time Difference of Arrival 3 (TDoA 3).\nIn TWR mode, the tag pings the anchors in sequence, this allows it to measure the distance between the tag and the anchors. Using this information, a theoretical minimum of 4 Anchors is required to calculate the 3D position of a Tag, but a more realistic number is 6 to add redundancy and accuracy.\nThis mode is the most accurate mode and also works when the tag or Crazyflie leaves the space delimited by the anchors. The tag is actively communicating with the anchors in a time slotted fashion and in this mode only one tag or Crazyflie can be positioned with a maximum of 8 anchors.\nIn TDoA 2 mode, the anchor system is continuously sending synchronization packets. A tag listening to these packets can calculate the relative distance to two anchors by measuring the time difference of arrival of the packets. From the TDoA information it is possible to calculate the 3D position in space. In this mode the tag is only passively listening, so new tags do not add any load to the system which makes it possible to position any number of tags or Crazyflies simultaneously. This makes it a perfect mode for swarming.\nCompared to TWR, TDoA 2 is more restrictive when it comes to the space where positioning works, ideally the tag should always be within, or very close to, the space delimited by the anchor system. This means that TDoA 2 works best with 8 anchors placed in the corners of the flying space. In this space the accuracy and precision is comparable to TWR.\nIn this mode the anchor system is time slotted and synchronized and the number of anchors is limited to 8.\nThe TDoA 3 mode has many similarities with TDoA 2 and supports any number of tags or Crazyflies. The main difference is that the time slotted scheme of TDoA 2 has been replaced by a randomized transmission schedule which makes it possible to add more anchors. By adding more anchors the system can be scaled to larger spaces or span multiple rooms without line of sight between all anchors. It also makes it more robust and can handle loss or addition of anchors dynamically.\nThe estimated position in this mode is slightly more noisy compared to TDoA 2.\nThe Loco Positioning system is based on the Decawave DWM1000 chip and has an accuracy in the 10 cm range. The 3D positioning performance depends of the system setup and environment.\nThe Loco Positioning system has mainly been designed for indoor use.\nGetting started with Loco positioning\nWe have created an easy to follow step-by-step guide for setting up the Loco positioning system that you will find here. In the tutorial we use the Indoor explorer bundle that you can buy directly from our E-shop. For more technical information about the Loco positioning system please visit our wiki.\nUsed by Lund University\nAt the Centre for Mathematical Sciences at Lund University PhD student Kenneth Bastone and professor Kalle \u00c5str\u00f6m are currently using the Crazyflie and the Bitcraze ultra-wide band based Loco Positioning system as part of their research. We visited them and wrote a blog post about their work.\nTo read the blog post go here.",

        "raw_content": "CompaniesHome \u00bb Companies \u00bb NuoDB\nThe database veterans behind NuoDB, which is the name of both the company and the product, first started to explore its concepts formally in 2008 and the company was founded, at that time named NimbusDB, in 2010. The company changed its name to the present NuoDB in 2011. The company is backed by venture capital and is based in Cambridge, MA.\nNuoDB is a so-called \u2018NewSQL\u2019 database: a database that looks relational and leverages SQL but isn\u2019t relational under the covers. It is a distributed database system that provides a high-performance, low administration, transaction processing, ACID compliant, SQL database with a much smaller footprint than traditional relational databases.\nIn addition, with its latest version (2.1), NuoDB is now offering a hybrid environment that not only supports transaction processing but also provides analytic capabilities. It should be noted that the product was designed from the outset to offer general-purpose capabilities\u2014that is, support both transaction processing and analytics\u2014but with the latter only being formally introduced with this release.\nHeadquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, 02142\nNuoDB distinguishes itself from traditional relational products, not only because of its smaller footprint and reduced administrative requirements but also because it offers a (geographically) distributed database environment that can easily scale out, as opposed to scaling up. True distributed architectures have historically been difficult to implement using relational technology yet, as corporations move more and more towards hybrid cloud environments, they become ever more necessary. Which is why NuoDB is well placed.\nWith regard to competition from other NewSQL databases, NuoDB would argue in favour of its performance and also the fact that it has recently introduced HTAP (hybrid transaction analytic processing) capabilities, which means that you can perform operational analytics against transactional data without impeding the performance of those transactions.\nProof points quoted by the company include 1.82 million transactions per second running across 32 machines and a 72,000 database instance implementation on a single HP Moonshot system.\nNuoDB leverages both direct marketing and partner models. Notable OEM and technology partners include Dassault Syst\u00e8mes, Palo Alto Networks, Pentaho (for both BI and ETL), New Relic, Zabbix (for application performance management), HP, Amazon (there is a quick start kit for scale-out provisioning on AWS) and Drupal.\nWhile the company is not focused on any particular industry sector it is particularly targeting users that are either migrating to the cloud or are deploying hybrid cloud environments. The product includes major relational database compatibility features for Oracle, SQL Server and MySQL to enable migrations from these environments to NuoDB. In the latest release there is also a new SQL-based parallel loading facility to improve performance for migrations from third party RDBMS environments.\nThe company\u2019s web site lists a dozen or so customers and, although some of these are major organisations, none of them are household names. On the other hand we do know of large well-known companies that are using NuoDB in production (NuoDB worked extensively with several of them during its beta phase and is continuing to do so) but have declined to make their names public. The company is heavily targeting ISVs and application providers, especially in the financial and telecommunications markets.\nNuoDB is implemented on a three-tier architecture: an administrative tier that consists of 'brokers' that provide functions such as load balancing and to which applications and users connect; a processing layer consisting of 'transaction engines' that run in memory; and a storage layer consisting of 'storage managers'. Each storage manager within a 'domain' has its own copy of the database thus, in effect, you have multiple physical instances of the same database but these are presented to the users (the transaction engines) as a single, logical instance.\nNuoDB is an append-only database, which means that you cannot update a record but create a new version of that record, although actually you only write changes to the record with the most recent changes defining the current version of that record. Older versions can be reconstructed by iterating backwards through the deltas, which means that you can do point-in-time queries and have support for (logical) schema evolution. So NuoDB is heavily reliant on versioning and uses MVCC (multi-version concurrency control). In general, NuoDB uses optimistic locking as well as other techniques, not least because traditional distributed lock management tends to become a bottleneck. In cases where locks need to be applied, if there is a conflict between a read and a write then the conflict is resolved based on the time at which that request was made with the reader and writer respectively seeing the version of the data that was live at that point in time. For each process a particular transaction engine takes over the role of 'chairman' and this communicates with the other transaction engines via asynchronous messages: chairman are used to resolve conflicts in more complex scenarios and are also critical for the continuous availability that NuoDB offers.\nAs far as hybrid transaction/analytical processing (HTAP) is concerned, you designate a number of your transaction engines as specific to analytics. In effect, a sub-cluster is being used for transaction processing and another sub-cluster for analytics. As far as the data being processed is concerned, there is no conflict between the data being used for analytics as opposed to that used to support transaction processing, because of NuoDB\u2019s nature as an append-only database. This means that analytics can run against the latest version of the data while not impeding updates or inserts that may be occurring within the transactional environment.\nNuoDB provides the usual sorts of services one might expect: training, support, professional services and so forth. There is a free to download version of the product available, which has all the features of the main product except that it does not support geographical distribution, and is limited with respect to the number of machine hosts.\nNoSQL and NewSQL\nNuoDB's latest release lets users perform operational analytics on transactional data: seeing what is otherwise invisible (without a data warehouse)\nNuoDB is a very interesting product, both from a conceptual and an architectural point of view.\nNewSQL databases have new architectures but are designed specifically for OLTP, supporting SQL",

        "title": "Plastic bag bans: Will we just use more paper?",
        "raw_content": "Plastic bag bans: Will we just use more paper?\nDoug Moss 12 Apr 10\nDear EarthTalk: How effective have plastic bag bans and restrictions been on reducing plastic litter and other problems associated with their proliferation? And is it really better to use paper bags, which will just lead to more deforestation? \u2014 Peter Lindsey, New Canaan, CT\nPlastic bags, first introduced in the 1950s as a convenient way to store food, have since developed into a global scourge, littering roadsides, clogging sewer drains and landfills and getting ingested by animals and marine life. And in recent years we\u2019ve discovered how they are so prolific that they now comprise a significant portion of the plastic and other garbage that has collected in huge ocean gyres far from land.\nA few countries around the world\u2014Bangladesh, China, India, Australia, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Israel, South Africa, Taiwan and Mumbai, among others\u2014have taken stands against plastic bags through taxing their usage or banning them outright. The environmental think tank, Worldwatch Institute, reports that China\u2019s decision to ban free plastic bags in 2008 has cut demand by some 40 billion bags, reduced plastic bag usage there by 66 percent, and saved some 1.6 million tons of petroleum.\nIn March 2007, San Francisco became the first (and is still the only) major U.S. city to implement an across-the-board ban on plastic bags. Large supermarkets and pharmacies there had to ditch plastic shopping bags by early 2008 in favor of paper bags or those made from all-natural biodegradable cornstarch-based plastic. Environmentalists are particularly fond of the latter option for those who don\u2019t bring their own grocery bags, as these cornstarch bags offer the biodegradability of paper without the deforestation as well as the convenience of plastic without the damage to ecosystems. San Francisco officials had originally tried to work with retailers on reducing plastic bag use voluntarily. But after a few years of little or no cooperation, they decided to just institute the ban on anything but biodegradable bags. The result has been a 50 percent drop in plastic bag litter on the streets since the ban took effect.\nLos Angeles followed suit and its city council voted in 2008 to ban plastic bags beginning in July 2010\u2014but the ban will only take effect if the state of California doesn\u2019t follow through on a statewide plan to impose a fee on shoppers who request plastic bags. City council members in L.A. hope the ban will spur consumers to carry their own reusable bags and thus reduce the amount of plastic washing into the city\u2019s storm drains and into the Pacific Ocean. Several other U.S. cities, including New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, have considered outright bans like San Francisco\u2019s, but each settled instead on plastic bag recycling programs in the face of pressure from the plastics industry and retail commercial interests.\nWhile increased demand for paper bags in the wake of plastic bag bans could lead to more deforestation, most paper grocery bags in use today are made from recycled content, not virgin wood. Also, an added benefit of paper over petroleum-based plastic is its biodegradability.\nAmericans go through some 92 billion disposable plastic bags each year, and only five billion paper ones. If the nation banned plastic bags it is likely that paper varieties would only make up a small part of the difference, in light of the proliferation of reusable canvas shopping bags as well as the availability of biodegradable cornstarch plastic.\nCONTACT: Worldwatch Institute, www.worldwatch.org.\nPrevious ArticleMom on the Run: Interview with Jill Perry\nNext ArticleStart \u2018Em Young",

        "raw_content": "How are the consultant contract negotiations going?\nWe are three months away from the deadline set for contract negotiations for consultants in England and Northern Ireland. Since discussions began last October, they have focused on two key issues - the provision of seven-day services and pay progression.\nWith seven-day services, you will be aware of the growing political pressure for more NHS services to be available during evenings and weekends. But the coverage of this issue is often unrealistic and ignores fundamental issues about workforce capacity.\nThe BMA believes that acute, urgent and emergency NHS care should be of the same high standard throughout the week. BMA council chair Mark Porter has spoken of a \u2018calendar lottery\u2019, where the standards of care can vary depending on the day, and time of day, that patients are treated.\nYou may well be, or know, one of the many consultants who have already led innovative changes in services to help reduce unacceptable variations in care.\nBut what the successful examples of service change demonstrate is that the work-life balance and health of consultants has to be protected, or the possible benefits to patient safety and outcomes from greater consultant cover could be negated.\nSo this has been a priority in our negotiations. Were section 3 paragraph 6 of the current contract (which allows consultants to decline non-emergency work) to be removed, it would be vital to enshrine a set of appropriate safeguards in a new contract.\nThese could include maximum limits on weekend and evening working, assurances around the working time regulations and a commitment to prioritising emergency care over elective procedures.\nSome trusts are already trying to introduce more seven-day services, with varying degrees of clinical evidence, support from medical staff and eventual outcomes. This makes it all the more important for this issue to be the subject of national negotiations, and for our members to be protected by a national contract.\nThe other key issue has been the consultant pay structure. The government wishes to end \u2018automatic\u2019 pay progression across the public sector. Although consultant pay progression is not currently automatic, the vast majority of consultants progress through each pay point without delay, and the government thinks the pay system should change. We need any replacement to be fair, and to recognise and reward the contribution that consultants make to the NHS.\nIt\u2019s certainly a complex area, but we are exploring a number of possible systems that could replace the current one.\nClearly, we are negotiating in a completely different environment to previous negotiations. The Treasury has been clear from the start that there can be no new money, and this had made the talks very difficult. We are working in an environment where, although funding is more protected than in some public services, it has failed to keep pace with the rising demand for services. We have all seen the consequences of this in the increasing intensity of our work.\nWe have made some progress and we want the talks to succeed because we believe there are overriding benefits in having a national consultant contract. In our extensive consultation, you have told us you also think a national contract is very important, although we agree that it cannot come at any cost.\nWhile the negotiations continue, and whatever the outcome may be, the BMA is continuing to work hard locally and nationally to protect and represent your interests. In a letter we have sent to all consultants in England and Northern Ireland this week, you will see details of our local structures, and now is an excellent time to make contact with them.\nThe thousands of you who have already given their views are helping to shape and inform our negotiations and I would urge everyone to get involved. Do continue to share your views and discuss issues on BMA Communities, keep up to date with the latest news and information or email us.\nTom Kane is acting chair of the BMA consultants committee\nHow about you also visit this blog article writemyessay4me.org/.../definition-essay for some tips on how to write great essay.

        "title": "Establishing Fault in a Multi-Vehicle Traffic Accident",
        "raw_content": "Who is at Fault in a Multi-Vehicle Accident?\nOne of the most essential elements of a personal injury claim is to determine fault. When there is a motor vehicle accident involving two cars, the number of people that are potentially at fault for the situation is very limited. In these cases, it typically is very easy to determine which driver is at fault. An accident involving three vehicles becomes a little more challenging, depending on the circumstances. When there are multiple cars involved in an accident, however, determining fault can be a quite difficult task.\nMulti-vehicle accidents are often simply a rapid series of one or two-car accidents. The most common cause of these accidents is one vehicle following another vehicle too closely. In this situation, police officers and insurance company adjusters assign fault just as they would in a routine one or two-car accidents. In a true multi-vehicle accident involving three or more vehicles in a single collision, though, determining fault is not quite so easy. The first question is what accident occurred first. Once the first accident is identified, as well as the driver at fault for the first accident, then the question will become whether that driver caused only the first accident, or caused all of the collisions. It is also entirely possible that there is more than one driver at fault for the accident, or drivers with varying degrees of fault for the accident.\nThere often is a variety of evidence available to help determine fault. This evidence may include debris from the crashed vehicles, skid marks from braking vehicles, and the position of the vehicles when they came to rest. Witness statements, testimony of the drivers and passengers in the vehicles, and even an expert reconstruction of the accident may be necessary to truly determine which driver is at fault for the accident.\nMulti-vehicle accidents can be complex situations in which it is difficult to discern who bears responsibility. Individuals who suffer injuries or even death as a result of a vehicle crash may have valid legal claims for damages under Wisconsin law. The Wisconsin personal injury attorneys of Boller & Vaughan know how to stand up for the rights of those who have been injured, and how to hold negligent or reckless drivers financially responsible for their actions.

        "raw_content": "South Sudan /\nSouth Sudan - The author\u2019s take\nPlease note There has been a serious deterioration in security in South Sudan since these pages were compiled, and some of the practical information here will now be out of date. In particular, many areas are currently not safe to travel. You are advised to contact your embassy and local agents prior to travelling.\nThe phrase \u2018the lost heart of Africa\u2019 could well have been coined for South Sudan and the country has all of the characteristics and features, both good and bad, that we stereotypically associate with the continent, but it is also a place too often forgotten.\nSouth Sudan is like the dark side of the moon: we can hypothesise what it\u2019ll be like in comparison to places close by, and even make some quite educated assumptions from a distance, but there are remarkably few people who have put both feet on the surface, walked around and seen the place first-hand. It is a privilege to be counted among them.\nIt is for so many people an unknown quantity, and this is a large part of South Sudan\u2019s appeal: cut off almost completely from the outside world, first by its impenetrable physical geography and then, just as man was making inroads into the grasslands, wetlands and hills, by decades of devastating civil war. The phrase \u2018the lost heart of Africa\u2019 could well have been coined for South Sudan and the country has all of the characteristics and features, both good and bad, that we stereotypically associate with the continent, but it is also a place too often overlooked, forgotten about as we turn our attentions (and tourist dollars) to its better developed and more familiar neighbours.\nBoys celebrating independence \u00a9 Levison Wood\nAs long as we do this, it is we who are missing out. South Sudan is an incredible, beautiful and beguiling place. Taking the country\u2019s national parks as a single example, Boma is one of the largest reserves in Africa. The scale of the seasonal wildlife migrations rivals even those of the Serengeti and more than 1,000 species of bird are native to South Sudan. The rare northern white rhino, of which just four breeding adults are left worldwide, but which has been declared extinct in the wild, may yet be found in the unsurveyed wilds of Southern National Park.\nSouth Sudan\u2019s human inhabitants are certainly no less diverse or resilient. The local population is divided into nearly 80 ethnic groups and speaks more than 60 indigenous languages. While some of these communities have urbanised, exchanging their cattle for cars and round grass huts for modern apartments, they are by no means the majority and hundreds of thousands still drive their herds to seasonal pastures, hunt game with handmade spears, and catch their fish from flat-bottomed canoes on the White Nile, its tributaries and floodplains.\nSouth Sudan is changing, and fast. In the two years since independence, foreign direct investment has started to flow, Juba has expanded to become one of the most expensive (but also most international) cities on earth, and road building crews are for the very first time pushing out away from the capital and into the rural hinterland. Nomadic cattle herders are buying mobile phones and have (at least in places) the network coverage and electricity to use them. Fishermen can cast their nets and contemplate for themselves or their children alternative employment as bodaboda motorcycle taxi drivers, park rangers, primary school teachers or small business owners. Travelling in South Sudan now may be a physically and financially draining experience, but you stand the chance of seeing the country and its people before globalisation, modernisation, urbanisation \u2013 in fact all kinds of -isations \u2013 take hold. For better or worse (and, if we\u2019re honest, it\u2019ll probably be a bit of both), in five years\u2019 time South Sudan will be scarcely recognisable from its pre-independence self. Now is the time to go.\nGuidebooks bring business. We\u2019re all quite familiar with this concept, and in most parts of the world hoteliers will scramble over their own grandmothers if there is the faintest chance of a favourable review. South Sudan is the exception that proves the rule. We walked into a hotel, which in the interests of fairness shall remain nameless because in any case it was by no means the only off ender, and politely presented ourselves at reception explaining that we were researching the Bradt travel guide to South Sudan and would it be possible to give us some information about the hotel that we could put in the book. \u2018Why?\u2019 We were somewhat taken aback. Wondering if there was a language issue, we pulled out Sudan with a flourish and explained that we had published a guide for the north, and were now researching one for the south. Tourists, NGO workers and businessmen would buy the book. \u2018But you have a book already.\u2019 \u2018Yes,\u2019 we said, gritting our teeth and trying to keep smiling, \u2018but this is to the north. We are making a book for the south.\u2019 \u2018Why?\u2019 We took a deep breath. \u2018If you give us a little information about your hotel then we can write about it in the book. People will buy the book, hear about your hotel and then come and stay here. Can you start by telling us the address?\u2019 \u2018Address?

She was diagnosed with 1p 36 deletion syndrome, which means she has chromosome deletion. She is now 14 years old. We\u2019ve had years when she has had just one or two stays a year at the children\u2019s hospital. This year has been rough, as she\u2019s been hospitalized about ten times.\nSarah has a special relationship with many of the staff members here, especially Dr. Cameron. She even has a t-shirt with a picture of him on it! She also has a blanket with his picture and some of her other favorite doctors.\nSarah has had surgeries at other hospitals and it is just not the same as Bronson. When we are here they tell us the nurses are fighting over who is going to take care of Sarah. It\u2019s a comforting feeling being here with the personal care that we get.\nOne of the things Sarah really likes is music therapy. When the music therapist\u2019s name came up today she started signing that she was really excited for Suzanna to visit. On the days Sarah isn\u2019t feeling well, Suzanna brings out a smile in her.\nBecause Sarah is non-verbal, sometimes new doctors or staff members didn\u2019t know what to expect when they arrived at her room. The art therapist, Meg, created a sign to hang outside of her room so people knew some of her favorite things and they would know a little bit about Sarah before they walked in.\nI\u2019m on Bronson\u2019s Patient and Family Advisory Council, which gives me an opportunity to give input on things that families experience here that could be improved. I think it\u2019s a great thing that Bronson is truly listening and taking things into account and validating what I\u2019ve said.\nThe staff here really is very caring. One night Sarah was in pediatric intensive care and couldn\u2019t sleep. So, we decided to have a dance party in her room. The nurses all took part, then the next day, the day shift nurses wanted in on it too. They know how to have fun here. They aren\u2019t afraid to put themselves out there. They\u2019ll do whatever they can to get a smile out of her.

        "title": "Anatomy Of An Announcement | Brunswick",
        "raw_content": "Anatomy Of An Announcement\nIt\u2019s time to expand your network. Newswires and IR websites are still important, but in the social media age there is more to announcing your financial news, writes Richard Carpenter of Merchant\nThe way companies send out financial news is going through radical change, and if you were one of the investor communications professionals keeping your head down and ignoring the revolution, now is the time for a rethink.\nIt is not just social media that is changing the way companies release earnings and other news, it is the wider online revolution. The \u201csocial\u201d aspect has led to many new ways in which companies can disseminate information and avoid the risk of selective or slow disclosure. But information can also be tagged and labeled in a way that makes it far easier for companies to share financials. These new techniques \u2013 if they can still be seen as new \u2013 are affecting long-established ways of releasing information and, in some cases, threatening the existence of practices and industries that traditionally supported the flow of financial information.\nHow are companies responding to this changing landscape? Take Hewlett Packard, which reported its third-quarter earnings in August using social media to support its release.\nHP continues to use traditional techniques, including a public relations wire service (backed up with a conference call), posting on its website and filing with the US Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). But it complemented that by putting information on its StockTwits IR account, its Facebook page, providing highlights links on its corporate blog and online newsroom, and posting the presentation slides on SlideShare. If you wanted video content, that wasn\u2019t overlooked either, with access via HP corporate sites or YouTube.\n\u201cOur goal is to make information about HP as easy to access as possible,\u201d says Ethan Bauley, Managing Editor at HP corporate news. \u201cThe biggest challenge is one of the most mundane, which is synchronizing distribution among multiple channels. There really aren\u2019t any tools that can simultaneously cross-post content to a wire service, Twitter, StockTwits, Facebook and YouTube. HP\u2019s financial information is consistently among the most popular content we publish to our blog, Twitter profile and Facebook page, often outperforming marketing or product messages.\u201d\nCrucially, a few days in advance, HP alerted audiences about how it would use social media as part of the announcement, thereby preparing followers on Twitter to be ready for the news and prepared to re-tweet or share information. This is the perfect way to use the new technology \u2013 social media allows rapid dissemination to thousands of followers \u2013 as part of an \u201cannouncement dashboard.\u201d\nHP is not alone, but it is among the leaders alongside Syngenta and Cisco which are developing similar practices, with Cisco devoting a YouTube page to earnings-related videos (www.youtube.com/user/ciscoearnings). There are some great synopses of these and other new practices on IR Web Report (www.irwebreport.com).\nSocial media also allows users to highlight key information, such as nuggets about earnings news. This is what an analyst might do in terms of stripping out key stories but not always with such a high level of understanding. As long as you can sort the wheat from the chaff, the online audience will help sift through pages of earnings releases almost as one \u2013 like ants tearing up a leaf \u2013 and then distribute to a wider group than would be the case with an analyst\u2019s note.\nThe downside is that social media can lead to legal concerns. If, for example, you highlight only one element of a release and then tweet that with a link to the wider release, are you open to a charge of selective disclosure? Equally, could such a charge be brought if you send out your earnings only over the web using social media and shy away from traditional outlets, such as the PR wires?\nOn this point, a regulatory shift is beginning that might make life easier and several companies are experimenting in this new environment. Some bodies with regulatory powers, such as the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, have ended their requirement for some overseas companies to use paid-for PR wire services, allowing companies to send their news out via SEC filings and their own website postings. Of course, they could also supplement that with the social media strategies above.\nWhat is changing is the notion that releases have to be \u201cpushed\u201d out to individuals using traditional methods. Nowadays, technological solutions mean people can choose to \u201cpull\u201d in the information they want from a range of sources, either using a feed they subscribe to into their own newsreader or via, say, Twitter.\nThis change is likely to have more of a dramatic impact in the US, where the paid-for PR wire service has been more of the landscape than in other markets, but the idea is the same wherever you are. Companies can effectively \u201cpush\u201d their news out themselves via online distribution, and as long as it is done in a timely, effective manner, the web will take the strain.\nBut what exactly does \u201ceffective\u201d mean here? Obviously, if you are a fairly obscure small-cap company, simply placing your earnings release on your website and waiting for the world to come and view it is unlikely to be an effective means of distribution. However, if you send that same release to a regulatory filing system, such as the SEC\u2019s EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval) and also use social media channels, then you might find the news distribution is more effective than traditional PR wires.\nAcademic research on the use of social media in financial news distribution seems to support this view. Elizabeth Blankespoor, Hal White and Gregory Miller at the University of Michigan published a paper last year showing how the use of Twitter by some \u201cearly adopter\u201d companies had helped news flow and liquidity in the stock, thereby reducing bid-ask spreads (http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1657169). It was particularly noticeable for smaller cap companies where, you might argue, the need was greatest.\nCertainly, some small caps that have jumped on that bandwagon have found it useful. Alberta-based mining group TVI Pacific has been an active supporter of social media in the past year and has had spectacular results. Rhonda Bennetto, TVI\u2019s Executive Director of Investor Relations, says traffic on its website has risen almost threefold in 10 months. Its Flickr photo views have risen from zero to 4,600; SlideShare views from zero to 3,000; YouTube views from 300 to 2,000; Twitter followers to 147; and Facebook followers to 170. The share price has almost doubled in nine months and trading volumes are up 400 per cent.\n\u201cThe biggest lesson I\u2019ve learned is that a company must have all its information available to all shareholders on any platform where they want to view it,\u201d says Bennetto. \u201cMostly retail shareholders visit our Facebook page, while institutional and buy-side investors tend to go to our website, so it\u2019s imperative that all information is mirrored on all sites. Often banks and other institutions are not allowed to use Facebook at the office, so you can\u2019t selectively have some information on Facebook and some on your website. This also eliminates any threat of a single point of failure of information \u2013 for instance, if Facebook were to shut its doors.\u201d\nFor many companies, radical changes in information dissemination are more about getting the online presence right rather than embracing social media per se. There is also a real legal concern about social media in many IR circles. For example, while many British-based investor relations officers admired the use of social media by firms such as Rio Tinto in its defense against BHP Billiton, still more have shut social media out of their IR programs. That has not stopped them from beefing up their online presence though, with many turning to video and other rich media content to help bring their executive or operational stories alive.\nOne company that has really embraced the online communications angle is French cosmetics group L\u2019Or\u00e9al. Thierry Pr\u00e9vot, Head of Financial Communications, says that investors\u2019 and analysts\u2019 requirements have changed radically in recent years \u2013 and that companies have to change their practices as a result. \u201cThey need more of the story of the company \u2013 the light and color of that story,\u201d he says.\nThat need prompted Pr\u00e9vot and colleagues to create a more interactive experience for people looking for information about their group. Their online annual report is just one example of this trend: www.loreal-finance.com/site/fr/contenu/rapport/rapport2009/index_en.html.\nPacked full of video and interactive timelines, it illustrates the company\u2019s story and, crucially, its constituent parts can also be used many times in other ways to tell the story. \u201cIt\u2019s a virtual promenade enabling visitors to discover what L\u2019Or\u00e9al has been doing in each of our zones; what our R&D department has been working on; the main financial results; and so on,\u201d says Pr\u00e9vot. \u201cIt\u2019s a kind of 3-D approach designed to make it as easy as possible for visitors to find the key information they require and to give a clear picture of how the group is structured.\u201d\nWhat do all these trends mean for investor communications? In the short term, it means things get a whole lot more complicated. And possibly more expensive, too, as myriad channels \u2013 and the resources needed to monitor them \u2013 continue to pop up. In the longer term, however, it should mean that life becomes a lot easier and cheaper for investor communications. You will be able to control far more from your desktop and, in theory, interact more rapidly and directly with investors.\nThese online tools are not the be-all and end-all, they are additional channels. Do not believe any online whizz-kid who tells you otherwise. That said, investor communications professionals who put their heads in the sand could find themselves being left behind.\nStockTwits \u2013 www.stocktwits.com \u2013 microblogging site for investors, gaining a lot of fans in the US.\nSlideShare \u2013 www.slideshare.net \u2013 allows users to upload and share slide presentations, publicly or privately.\nTwitter \u2013 www.twitter.com \u2013 microblogging site where you share your news in fewer than 140 characters.\nBit.ly \u2013 www.bit.ly \u2013 it shortens URLs, which is why it\u2019s used so much on Twitter.\nFlickr \u2013 www.flickr.com \u2013 the world\u2019s largest picture management and sharing application.\nYouTube \u2013 www.youtube.com \u2013 worth investigating if you don\u2019t have your own corporate page.\nIR Web Report \u2013 www.irwebreport.com \u2013 good up-to-date guide to trends and practices in online investor communications.\nXBRL: A JOLT FORWARD\nBack in 2000, delegates at the UK\u2019s Investor Relations Society were treated to a presentation that predicted XBRL \u2013 or eXtensible Business Reporting Language \u2013 was about to radically change financial information dissemination.\nSome 10 years later, there is still little evidence of the XBRL revolution but, you could argue, there has been a shift in its favor.\nEssentially, XBRL is a means of tagging financial information so it can be used in different formats without having to re-key the information. You tag a number as, say, a revenue line, then that tag effectively drags the correct number into the right space whether used in a PowerPoint presentation, a press release, an online annual report or whatever. The system is most impressive when XBRL tags are used to drag comparison numbers from a range of companies into one spreadsheet.\nIt sounds magical, but the problem has been one of adoption. Companies have not used it because investors have not used it \u2013 and vice versa. Similarly, the idea all companies in all countries and all sectors can easily be compared is great but flounders when put into practice \u2013 despite the wide adoption of international financial reporting standards.\nBut the white light of hope for XBRL advocates, these days, is that the US Securities & Exchange Commission has mandated the use of XBRL in filing financial reports. Some other regulators, such as the British tax authorities, have also been taking the XBRL route. The regulatory kick has finally given XBRL a jolt forward.\nIt is not a perfect solution, however. Most companies are simply tagging their financial information at the end of having produced their numbers, rather than using it throughout the process. The danger is that just as XBRL is on the verge of truly wide adoption, it will become the \u201cBetamax\u201d of financial reporting, and a new, easier solution will take over. Keep watching the XBRL space, though.\nRichard Carpenter is Managing Partner of Merchant, the creative communications consultancy that specializes in corporate reporting.

        "raw_content": "in Debts, University Costs\nFor my regular readers you will remember that I have a deal with my children, that I will attempt to pay for their first degree, in exchange I will not pay for their wedding ceremony, with the proviso that if I am asked to help out on the wedding (which I will do, I am not as heartless as I\u2019d like to think I am), it is my party as well. A follow on proviso is that they pay for any future degrees (although I will attempt to help out if it is possible).\nWith this in mind, my middle daughter decided to go to Chiropractic College, and applied for a Student Line of Credit. Most of the big banks, either:\nDon\u2019t offer very much money which is a problem as Chiropractic College is a very expensive degree\nWeren\u2019t interested in dealing with her\nThis led to going to the National Bank of Canada, which does offer a Student Line of Credit family of loans. The amount they will loan depends on what program you are in, and they view Chiropractic College as a \u201chealth care professional\u201d program thus they will loan her enough money to cover most of her expenses (mind you the degree is even more expensive, because she has to \u201clive\u201d in Toronto, which is not cheap). The nice part of their Student Line of Credit is , \u201c\u2026no payback of principal (sic) or interest while you are at school\u2026\u201d, which is useful.\nMy daughter thought she had set up one of these fine life sucking debt creatures (no I am not going soft on debt, I still hate it), however, she was mistaken. I ended up having to co-sign on her application (so really it\u2019s my student line of credit), and this is why I am not happy (as well).\nMy daughter has been getting calls from the bank since she had the Line of Credit set up, and the problem kept getting \u201ccleared up\u201d (or more precisely it went away). Finally, this past week, luckily she was home, she got another call, and she went back to the National Bank branch where she set everything up, and she finally got to the heart of the problem, which was, they had not set it up a Student Line of Credit at all, they had set it up as a \u201cregular\u201d line of credit, and they were kind of miffed that she was not paying her minimum payments.\nI was not present when all of this silliness transpired, but my daughter worked hard to start straightening the mess up. The young lady she spoke to first, was smart enough to figure out that she was out of her depth, and the young man (who was lucky enough to be working on a Saturday) she dragged into the mess started to peel this smelly onion of a problem. He was the lucky one to figure out that the \u201cStudent Line of Credit\u201d was set up as a regular \u201cLine of Credit\u201d and then realized the Pickle of a Predicament this created.\nEvidently someone from \u201cHead Office\u201d will need to clean up the mess created by the young lady who made the blunder setting things up initially, but the young man from the branch has triggered the Hazardous Debt cleanup team that will work on this problem (I hope).\nWhy does this all matter to me? First, I am very proud that my daughter dealt with all of this without my intervention. The important point for me, is that whatever Credit Rating penalties that might come out of this blunder, is going to be mine, because I am the co-signer on this debt vehicle, so the National Bank will soon get to enjoy the special treatment I have given TD over the years, stay tuned, this looks like it is going to be an interesting follow up.\nThere is a Moral ?\nThe moral of this story? (even though it is not finished yet)?\nAlways follow-up with your bank when you set up a new account with the bank to make sure it is set up correctly. I have had Spousal RRSPs that were set up as regular RRSPs more than once, so follow up every time.\nCareful what loans you co-sign for, they can end up hurting your credit rating\nI still hate debt, and now I have another reason to hate debt.\nRICARDO March 30, 2015, 8:43 AM\nWhat is important to take away form this is that you are your own best advisor/advocate. So make sure you are aware of what you want and what they are trying to sell you. And then make sure you overcheck what they did because a lot of times it is not what you asked for. Even then errors will find their way in.\nBe that with lawyers, doctors, banks, financial advisors, etc.\nDo some research first, get their advise, take time to mull it over and then make a decsion on what you need and what you want.\nIf you count on them to take care of you you better hope you are lucky\nWise statements:",

        "raw_content": "We\u2019re gonna need a bigger turkey\nGOBBLED UP: Back when we were just starting this family deal, when the kids\u2019 idea of gourmet eating was a Happy Meal, you could get some real mileage out of a turkey.\nYou could stuff yourself on Thanksgiving afternoon until you had to undo the top button on your 501s, then watch the Detroit Lions on TV until early evening. That\u2019s when normal people make a sandwich with a slab of white turkey meat, a slice of onion, mayonnaise, and a lettuce leaf to make it healthy. Then, of course, pumpkin pie.\nThere was always so much leftover turkey that you could hurt your back bringing the roaster pan back into the kitchen from out in the garage, where you parked it because there was no room left in the fridge. That\u2019s how much turkey was left.\nThe the next week, turkey leftovers were like a guest who showed up for the holiday and refuses to leave. It was as if the leftovers were laughing at us from the back of the fridge, taunting us with their longevity. We ate turkey sandwiches, turkey with gravy, turkey casserole, and turkey soup, until we started growing wattles.\n(I was in McDonalds the other day, and heard a youngster ask his father why they had stopped there. \u201cBecause we\u2019re sick of TURKEY!\u201d the dad said \u201cThat\u2019s why!\u201d)\nIn the words of Mary Hopkin, those were the days, my friend.\nWe thought they\u2019d never end.\nNow, however, the halcyon Happy Meal days are over, the kids are grown up, one of them got married, then they had a little crumb cruncher of their own, and I have to go down in the basement and bring up chairs so everyone can sit down for Thanksgiving dinner. They all have good appetites, and if you don\u2019t get your meat hooks in early, you can miss out on the dark meat.\n(My daughter married into a family in which everyone prefers white meat, if you can believe such a thing. They seem like nice folks, but you have to wonder about people like that. If they only like the white meat, maybe they open their presents on Christmas Eve. And maybe they wear socks to bed. My daughter has made the best of an odd situation, however, and gets all the dark meat she wants.)\nProblem is, our family has gotten larger, but the turkeys haven\u2019t. And The Wife always sends our youngest son off with about a week\u2019s worth of leftovers in tow because she\u2019s afraid he\u2019ll starve. And by the time I\u2019m hankering for a turkey sandwich that evening, the remains of the bird in the roaster pan out in the garage look like road kill after the buzzards are done. By the Saturday after Thanksgiving, all that\u2019s left is the turkey soup.\nEvery year now I ask The Wife to get a bigger turkey to compensate for the bigger family. These days, it would take a turkey the size of a Labrador Retriever to produce leftovers, and we\u2019d have to grease it up with WD-40 to fit it into the oven. Maybe next year. Or at Christmas.\nMeanwhile, if you had enough leftovers to get sick of turkey, I envy you. You should be thankful.\nFOREVER YOUNG: Nancy Pelosi is 78, and she\u2019s angling for another term as Speaker of the House. Diane Feinstein is 85, and she just got elected to another six-year term in the Senate, which would take her all the way to 91. Her pal Chuck Grassley is 85. Joe Biden, 76, Bernie Sanders 77, and Hillary Clinton, 71, all covet the presidency, long after most of us have retired and spend our mornings sipping senior discount cups of coffee at McDonalds, hoping the counter help will call us \u201cSweetie.\u201d\nDon\u2019t these people have the sore joints I have at 67? Don\u2019t they need a nap after lunch like I do? Don\u2019t they yearn for the days when they don\u2019t have wear a tie anymore? I ask you, what\u2019s wrong with these people?\nIf the rest of us had the sense to pour stuff out of a boot, we\u2019d all move to Washington, where you can apparently live forever.",

There are a number of businesses who are not coming at par with the quality of products and/or services that they are giving to these consumers. This is not good for the consumers and most especially for the business. In some cases, there are businesses that are doing their best in giving the quality those consumers need but it would not trickle down to the consumers due to various factors. An example of such factors is franchising.\nBusiness Development advisers are often consulted by organizations and companies to ensure that everybody is well taken care of. This is important in the business cycle. Business Development advisers can be searched through the worldwide web to know their credibility and the company\u2019s that they have helped prosper. There are successful business strategy advisers in locations like Auckland and Tauranga. If a person is within that area and is not sure where to look, the worldwide web would be more than willing to help. It will take a person a couple of minutes and a few clicks and keystrokes.\nBusiness Development advisers can easily be found as more businesses are flourishing on the online market with the aid of websites and advertisements. Current business development advisers have already acknowledged the importance and influence of the worldwide web to its users and consumers. This is a reason why business development advisers have also been taking their services online. There are several organizations of business development advisers that have put up websites or advertisements to offer their services to business and making their range into the global market with just a very little investment in comparison to taking it the old fashion way of expanding and outsourcing.\nThe services that business development advisers are giving are goal oriented and this goal is the goal of a business. The success of the business would show how effective business development advisers are and how much they have handled the situation. Most business owners are thankful for these organizations as success is just within arm reach for their products and/or services. It is not just the businesses that are thankful for business development advisers but even the consumers as well as they are not anymore being contented with the regular quality some products have when they deserve much more for the cash that they are spending",

Bloomberg suffered a stinging defeat when, after an extensive planning and public relations effort, New York City lost its bid to host the 2012 Summer Olympics.\nNow, though, a vibrant neighborhood is rising in the area where the Olympic stadium and complex would have stood on the Far West Side of Manhattan. As a result, officials, developers and urban planners are embracing an unlikely notion: the Olympic bid\u2019s defeat may have been one of the best things to happen for the city\u2019s growth in recent memory.\nThe Bloomberg administration repurposed many elements of the bid to create Hudson Yards, the commercial and residential district taking shape west of Eighth Avenue, a once-desolate area of factories, lofts and parking lots between 30th and 43rd Streets.\nFifteen sleek residential towers have sprung up since 2005, the year that the Olympic bid was rejected, and a dozen hotels have muscled their way onto these blocks.\nThis month, one of the city\u2019s biggest developers, the Related Companies, announced tentative plans to erect a 51-story office tower on the spot where the Olympic stadium would have stood, with Coach, the luxury retailer, as the anchor tenant.\nNo one expects the Far West Side to look like the office canyons on Avenue of the Americas anytime soon. Another deep recession in the next few years could undermine nascent plans.\nStill, city officials predict that within two decades, Hudson Yards could have more office space than Baltimore or Portland, Ore., and as many apartments as Stamford, Conn.\nAn extension of the No. 7 subway line from Times Square to 34th Street and 11th Avenue, at a cost of more than $2 billion, is two-thirds complete and set to open in December 2013. Work is to begin early next year on a new tree-lined boulevard between 10th and 11th Avenues. Both of these projects were originally conceived for the 2012 Olympics.\nSome planners pointed out that if the Games had been held in New York, the city most likely would have had to cover billions of dollars in cost overruns. It also would have been stuck with many underused sports facilities, including the stadium.\n\u201cIt\u2019s ironic that the Hudson Yards was born out of the loss of the Olympic bid,\u201d said Jeffrey S. Katz, who owns three large development sites in the district. \u201cAt the end of the day, it turns out to be better for the city that the Olympic stadium is not there. We\u2019re building a new, vital part of the central business district.\n\u201cImagine what a big stadium would\u2019ve been like. It would have dominated the area, and not necessarily in a good way.\u201d\nThe rejuvenation of the neighborhood and the expansion of the business district could be among Mr. Bloomberg\u2019s most enduring legacies, achieving a goal that eluded Mayors Edward I. Koch, David N. Dinkins and Rudolph W. Giuliani. Each failed to remake this industrial area after the shipping piers disappeared and the garment district withered.\nEven Mr. Bloomberg, who allowed that he \u201chates to lose,\u201d said that in retrospect, the failure of the Olympic bid may have been a blessing for the city.\n\u201cGiven what happened to the economy, it would\u2019ve been tough to raise all the money,\u201d Mr. Bloomberg said in an interview.\nBut, he added, his administration pushed ahead with many of the projects and land-use changes that were contained in the Olympic proposal, not just on the Far West Side, but in other parts of the city as well.\n\u201cWe thought the Olympics would be the catalyst to get a lot of things that many people thought the city needed,\u201d he said. \u201cIn fact, many got done\u201d anyway.\nFrom the day he took office in 2002, Mr. Bloomberg made the Olympics, as well as the redevelopment of the Far West Side, a signature initiative.\nThe proposal\u2019s chief architect, Daniel L. Doctoroff, a former deputy mayor under Mr. Bloomberg, combined a series of new or refurbished sports facilities across the five boroughs with plans for the redevelopment of waterfront industrial areas.\nThe rezoning of the West Side for commercial towers was necessary for New York\u2019s survival as an international center of finance, media and communications, Mr. Doctoroff and others argued, because Manhattan was running out of room for development.\nBut the Olympic plan was also tied to an unpopular proposal for a $2 billion stadium and an expanded convention center nearby.\nWhile Mr. Bloomberg lost the Olympic bid, he won the rezoning effort in 2005, with plans for up to 24 million square feet of office space and more than 13,000 apartments.\nThe Metropolitan Transportation Authority selected the Related Companies to develop 12 commercial and residential towers, a park and a cultural center over the rail yards between 10th and 12th Avenues, from 30th to 33rd Streets.\nSince then, the Bloomberg administration has invested heavily on the Far West Side, including $3 billion in bonds for the subway extension, new parks and the boulevard between 10th and 11th Avenues, a remnant of the Olympic plan.\nThe administration has had to tap into the city budget to cover interest payments on the bonds. That cost will be $557 million by 2015, officials said.\nThe view from the roof of the Ohm, a 34-story rental building that opened in 2010 at 30th Street and 11th Avenue and has attracted tenants who work in the fashion and media industries, offers a sense of how much things have changed on the Far West Side.\nThere are residential towers on the northern border, along 42nd Street; new hotels and apartment buildings pushing westward from Eighth Avenue; and new residential towers marching northward along the High Line, the elevated park in Chelsea.\nA major developer, Avalon Bay, is about to begin construction of its largest residential complex, with 700 rental apartments and a 30-story tower, at 11th Avenue and 29th Street.\nIn the next month or so, Related will begin work on a 32-story rental building, with 400 apartments, opposite the proposed Coach building.\nThe Gotham Organization just broke ground on a $520 million residential complex on a block bounded by 44th and 45th Streets, between 10th and 11th Avenues. It will contain 1,232 apartments, including 682 units for poor and moderate-income families, mandated by the Hudson Yards rezoning.\nCommercial development has progressed more slowly because of the area\u2019s lack of public transportation, its untested location and the costly decks that must be built over the railroad tracks.\nEven so, Related, Brookfield Properties, Sherwood Equities and other developers at Hudson Yards said they were optimistic that the first set of commercial buildings was only a few years off, especially with the subway extension set to open in 2013.\nMitchell L. Moss, director of New York University\u2019s Rudin Center for Transportation Policy and Management, said the development underscored how the city was better off with the Olympic plan but without the event itself.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve created the opportunity for new housing, new commercial space and an entirely new recreational corridor,\u201d Mr. Moss, author of the new report \u201cHow New York City Won the Olympics,\u201d said in an interview. \u201cIn light of how quickly the Far West Side developed, we\u2019ve done better without the Olympics than anyone would have anticipated.\u201d\nHudson River Park Nears Key Phase\nScott Stringer Backs Rudin Plan for St. Vincent\u2019s Site",

        "raw_content": "Press Releases // The Ed Satell Family Chair\n\u200bCaron Treatment Centers Announces The Ed Satell Family Chair for Children and Teen Education\nWernersville, Pennsylvania (April 27, 2016) \u2013 Caron Treatment Centers is pleased to announce the creation of The Ed Satell Family Chair for Children and Teen Education. This endowed chair is backed by the transformational bequest of $1 million from Ed Satell, Founder and Executive Chairman of Progressive Business Publications, and his family. The Satell Family has had a history of quietly supporting causes that serve the greater good with a focus on leaving the world a better place than it was.\nThe endowment will support in perpetuity the existing Satell Family Children and Teens Program at Caron. Launched in 2010, this program serves as a resource for children and teens with family members affected by substance abuse. Satell\u2019s philanthropic support will insure the program continues its mission of educating children and teens about the disease of addiction and helping them to recover from its impact. The Ed Satell Family Chair for Children and Teen Education is the first named chair at Caron and the first among free standing treatment centers in our nation.\nSatell\u2019s bequest, along with his other generous contributions, makes his family eligible for induction into the Richard J. Caron Society. The \u201cLegacy Society\u201d at Caron recognizes those who have made lifetime contributions totaling more than $1 million in support of the not-for-profit\u2019s mission.\n\u201cAddiction is a family disease that can impact generations. Through their generous support, the Satell Family has empowered children and teens impacted by the disease of addiction to achieve their own recovery,\u201d said Doug Tieman, CEO of Caron Treatment Centers. \u201cThe Ed Satell family has literally held out their hand time and time again to help our most vulnerable youth. Now through this transformational pledge, they will be celebrated for every life changed and every life saved at Caron.\u201d\nFor more than 50 years, Ed Satell has been recognized for his strong values and focus on the greater good as a successful and innovative business entrepreneur, philanthropist, and civic leader. He established two charitable foundations, The Satell Family Foundation and the Progressive Business Publications Charitable Trust, to support his belief that with success comes responsibility. He is known in the nonprofit world as a \u201cthinking partner\u201d, providing business expertise and deep understanding of best practices for the nonprofit organizations he supports. His philanthropy is focused in five areas: disadvantaged children, higher education initiatives, community, research, and heritage. Satell\u2019s altruistic efforts and initiatives are extensive and known to be uniquely hands-on.\n\u201cMy wish is for every child to have a happy developmental childhood. Addiction in the family too often has a serious long-lasting negative impact during these vulnerable years,\u201d said Satell. \u201dI\u2019m motivated to help children overcome such circumstances so they can go on in a healthy way. Caron is a terrific partner to help make that happen.\u201d\nAs a testament to the positive results of the Satell Family Children and Teens Program, one 12-year-old participant shared, \u201cI enjoyed working together and bonding with new people who have the same family problems.\u201d\nAnn-Marie Loose, Director of Family Services at Caron Treatment Centers, will hold the Endowed Chair as she oversees the Satell Family Children and Teens Program at Caron. Loose is a Licensed Social Worker, a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Supervisor and has worked extensively with patients and families who have been impacted by the disease of addiction as well as mental health disorders.\n\u201cAs Director of Family Services, I witness firsthand the positive impact that the Satell Family Children\u2019s Program has on young lives,\u201d said Loose. \u201cWith the partnership of Ed Satell and his family, we are able to provide hope to young children who might otherwise suffer in silence. Now through this special bequest, we promise future generations that we will be here to support them during the most challenging period in their lives.\u201d\nCaron will be holding a special event on May 5, 2016 at The Franklin Institute to announce The Ed Satell Family Chair for Children and Teen Education and to induct the Ed Satell Family into the Richard J. Caron Society.\nCEO Doug Tieman discusses the impact of addiction in the workplace in The Philadelphia Inquirer",

This is where we partner with local grass roots organizations and orphanages. We help street kids become model students and orphans become college graduates. In eight years, CdK co-founder and president, Drew Vogt, has delivered over 1,000 articles of clothes, personal hygiene necessities, and school supplies to these children in need. His work has benefited students who have received a cumulative 30 years of education. We also fund school books, uniforms, and tuition.\nLiteracy & Hope We know our work is succeeding because most of our students have surpassed the educational levels of their families. While some were abandoned, others were given up by relatives who could not feed them or offer hope for the future. However, education is readily available for those we assist with a safe place to live and educational assistance.\nIf every child received an education 171 million people would be lifted out of poverty.",

        "raw_content": "What Should You Do In Response to The Equifax Hack?\n4 Proactive Steps You Can Take Now\nWhile the media has rightfully focused on the impacts of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma on Houston and much of Florida, the other important story of the past week is that Equifax suffered a significant data breach from May to July of this year that compromised the personal information of over 140 million Americans, including names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, and even some drivers license numbers.\nThis may be one of the most serious data breaches we have seen simply because of the nature of the sensitive data that has been exposed.\nEquifax exacerbated the problem by sending potentially affected consumers to a proprietary website that initially forced visitors to waive their right to join a class action lawsuit. While Equifax has now removed that language, there have also been reports that the website has been unreliable at best.\nUnfortunately, cyber-crime is a reality we all face and it will continue to be a threat to consumers in our digital-driven world.\nSo, what should you do in response to the Equifax hack? The most conservative thing to do for now is to assume that your information was compromised until you find out otherwise.\nHere are some proactive steps you can take:\nGet a free credit report \u2013 Federal law guarantees you one free credit report per year from each of the three major credit reporting bureaus (including Equifax). You can go to www.annualcreditreport.com, which is a federally mandated website, to get your most recent credit report and check it for any malicious activity.\nSet a fraud alert \u2013 You can always sign up for a free, 90-day fraud alert which makes it harder for an identity thief to open accounts in your name. Once you place the fraud alert with one of the three bureaus, they will automatically tell the other two companies. The FTC has also put together a helpful guide on how to place a fraud alert.\nFreeze your credit \u2013 While this is the most drastic step you can take, credit freezes make it harder for criminals to open things like credit cards or bank accounts in your name. If you are planning on opening any new lines of credit or need to have a credit report run for work, you may want to wait until that is completed before freezing your credit. You\u2019ll need to contact each of the credit bureaus and you will likely be charged $5 \u2013 $10 per bureau. You can find more details on credit freezes at this FTC Credit Freeze FAQ, including the contact info for each of the three bureaus, how to lift a freeze, and some other important considerations on how to carefully navigate this process.\nConsider an identity theft protection service (such as LifeLock, Identity Force, Identity Guard and others) \u2013 Identity theft protection services are designed to detect and alert you to a wide range of threats. If you do become a victim of identity theft your provider will work with you to restore your identity, and in some instances if you have funds stolen as part of identity theft, they may replace the funds, based on the plan you select. Some stolen funds reimbursement plans cover up to a loss of 1 million dollars.\nYou should also be vigilant about checking your financial statements and remain suspicious of email announcements that may be phishing attempts, even if they seem like they come from Equifax or other seemingly legitimate sources. If you find suspicious information on your credit report or believe you have been a victim of identity theft, you can take the steps mentioned on the FTC\u2019s identity theft website.\nAs a firm, Cassaday & Company, Inc. remains committed to protecting personal information and will continue vigilance against ever-changing threats. If you have questions or concerns related to this incident or your financial accounts, you should contact your financial advisor.\nFor more tips on protecting yourself against identity theft in general, see here.",

        "title": "Alessandro Farnese - Encyclopedia Volume - Catholic Encyclopedia - Catholic Online",
        "raw_content": "The name of two cardinals. For the elder see POPE PAUL III. The young Alessandro Farnese -- eldest son of Pier Luigi Farnese, first Duke of Parma and brother [actually his son -- Ed. ] of Pope Paul III -- was born 7 Oct, 1520, and died at Rome, Feb., 1589. While yet a student at Bologna, in 1534, Clement VII appointed him administrator of the Diocese of Parma ; on 18 Dec. of the same year, his uncle, Paul III, created him Cardinal-Deacon of the Title of Sant' Angelo, and conferred on him numerous offices and benefices. Thus, he was Vice-Chancellor of the Holy Roman Church, Governor of Tivoli, Archpriest of St. Mary Major's, Archpriest of St. Peter's, Administrator of Ja\u00e9n, Spain, of Vizeu, Portugal, of Wurzburg, Germany and of Avignon, France. In 1536 he was made Bishop of Monreale, Sicily, where, in 1552, he founded Jesuit College, and in 1559 convoked a synod. He was also Bishop of Massa (1538), and Archbishop of Tours (1553), later exchanging this see for that of Cahors, from which he resigned in 1557; Bishop of Benevento (1556); of Montefiascone (1571); finally Cardinal Bishop of Ostia and Velletri (1580). He was papal legate for the province of the Patrimony, and afterwards of the county of Avignon, where he displayed great administrative ability, especially during the plague of 1541.\nHe was very zealous in behalf of the poor. Farnese was employed by the popes on various legations and embassies. In 1539, he was legatus a latere of Paul III at the court of Charles V, to make peace between the emperor and the King of France, and to sever the alliance with England, also to arrange for a general council . In 1543 he went again to the court of Charles V, and later to that of Francis I, and was present at the meeting of the two sovereigns in Paris, returning with Charles to Flanders. In the war between his brother Ottavio, Duke of Parma, and Pope Julius III, he prudently held aloof, first at Florence and then at Avignon. In 1545 he went on a second embassy to Charles V in reference to the council, and in 1546 he accompanied the pontifical troops sent the aid of Charles V against the Smalkald League. In 1580, he was one of the candidates for the papacy. Charles V greatly admired his virtues and sagacity. Farnese was an ardent promoter of the Tridentine reforms. Above all he was a lover and patron of literature, science, and art, especially ecclesiastical. He used to say that \"there is nothing more despicable than a cowardly soldier, or an ignorant priest \". He patronized the architect Vignolo, to whom he trusted the construction both of the church of Gesu in Rome, of which he laid the corner-stone 1568, and of the superb Farnese palace of Caprarola near Lago Bracciano. He restored the monastery Tre Fontane, where he had the chapel of Santa Maria Scala Coeli erected: and he had the ceiling of San Lorenzo in Damaso magnificently decorated. He was buried in front of the high altar in the church of Gesu.\nSpiral Sterling Rosary @ $399.97\n6mm Indocolite Swarovski Sterling Silver Rosary Bracelet @ $91.99 $74.51 SAVE 19%\nStations of the Cross Rosary -Faux Mother of Pearl Beads",

        "raw_content": "Our Lady\u2019s 15 Promises to Those Who Pray Her Rosary\nOctober 6, 2017 By Mary Thierfelder 113 Comments\nThe Holy Rosary is an enormous source of grace and spiritual protection, one of the most powerful sacramentals of the Catholic Church. Sister Lucia dos Santos, one of the children to whom Our Lady appeared at Fatima, once said,\n\u201cThere is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families \u2026 that cannot be solved by the Rosary. There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary.\u201d\nAfter the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Holy Rosary is the prayer most pleasing to Our Lady. In honor of the Blessed Mother, we would like to share her 15 promises to those who pray the Rosary.\nOur Lady revealed the following promises to St. Dominic (the saint to whom the rosary was first given in the 12th century) and later to Blessed Alan de la Roche (who reignited devotion to the rosary in the 15th century).\nSee also The Spot Where Our Lady Gave the Rosary to St. Dominic\nMary, in virtue of her perfect union with the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus, now reigns in heaven as Queen next to her Son, Christ the King. She has been given the privilege to bestow God\u2019s graces to her spiritual children, for whom she earnestly intercedes as the Mother of all Christians.\nAlthough there is much suffering in this world, these promises from Our Lady ensure her assistance in the cares and worries of this life, and in interceding for us to obtain a holy death, eternal salvation, and everlasting happiness with the angels and saints in heaven.\n1. Whosoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.\n[A signal grace may be a simple sign in daily life that answers a question made in prayer or points towards God\u2019s will. For example, seeing a rose after finishing a novena to St. Therese of Lisieux could be considered a signal grace. Signal graces are often subtle or seemingly coincidental.]\n4. It will cause good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire for Eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means!\n[In other words, anyone who faithfully prays the Rosary and asks for Mary\u2019s intercession will be saved from hell.]\n6. Whosoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its Sacred Mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of Eternal Life.\n[An unprovided death means dying while not in a state of grace (that is, in dying with unconfessed mortal sin in the soul). The Blessed Mother promises that anyone who regularly prays the Rosary, and earnestly tries to live according to God\u2019s will, will be spiritually prepared when their time of death comes.]\n[Our Lady ensures that the soul will receive sanctifying grace through the Sacraments prior to its departure from the body.]\n8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the Light of God and the plenitude of His Graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the Merits of the Saints in Paradise.\n11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by recitation of the Rosary.\n[By this the Blessed Mother means that a devotion to the Rosary is a good indication that the devotee is on the path to Heaven.]\nIt is amazing to realize how much grace and heavenly help we can receive by an act so simple as praying the Rosary regularly. It only takes 15 minutes to pray! Set aside time alone, with your family, or with some friends to start the habit of reciting a daily Rosary. If you don\u2019t think you have time, try praying on the way to work in the morning. You will surely notice the grace it brings to your life, as promised by Our Lady!\nRead next: The Spot Where Our Lady Gave the Rosary to St. Dominic\nCarolyn Lewis says\nI\u2019m reading the book Champions of The Rosary by Donald H. Calloway, MIC.Every day for years I\u2019ve been devoted to the Rosary so many people are now telling me because of you I\u2019m now saying the devotion.I have broken so many the nuns tell me you are doing a lot of rosaries. The Virgin Mary has spaced out my seven children she told me about a financial blessing on the 25th got a confirmation on the 24th it came.When in doubt I send in prayer requests to Lourdes,I\u2019m a faithful contributer of EWTN they have the rosary on 4times a day.When I was 8 yrs old I came into the Catholic Church and saw a movie about Fatima the day the sun danced.I knew then the Virgin was powerful. I am 66 yrs old now she has always been my mother\nHello Priscilla. According to tradition and private revelation, it would have been in 1208\nShow me the exact words of the 15 promises of the rosary in the Bible. Don\u2019t ignore this comment, just show me the exact words of the 15 promises of the rosary in the Bible.\nWhere are Mary\u2019s exact words in the Bible concerning all 15 promises of the rosary.\nDon\u2019t tell me it is tradition, cause tradition doesn\u2019t support 15 promises according to Jesus.\nHi Mary, your comment presupposes the \u201csola scriptura\u201d view, that only the bible is to be part of Christian belief. This view is an innovation from the framers of the Protestant Revolution. The bible itself does not teach this view, nor was it held in the first 1500 years of Church history. On the contrary, we are to hold fast to the traditions we have been taught, whether *by word of mouth* or by letter (2 Thess. 2:1). That being said, it is not required for Catholics to believe in any private revelation, which is the origin of these 15 promises. However, the truth of these promises is clear to those who pray the rosary. The Blessed Virgin Mary really and truly works in people\u2019s lives in exactly this way. The personal verification is in simply beginning to pray the rosary faithfully and daily to begin to see how she intercedes from heaven for all her spiritual children as the mother of Jesus Christ.\nJose Lim says\nWhy dont you buy the book SECRET OF THE ROSARY by St. Louis de Montfort and read it. Surely you will change your heart.\nI pray all 4 mysteries everyday. Our Blessed Mother interceded for us! I have had SO MANY miracles in my life. My husband was about to be fired for unjust reasons but was instead promoted to manager!! No one will believe but we even received a large amount of money that we did not expect. Please!! Just try it for full week!! Viva Cristo Rey!!\nshannon bailey says\nI believe had to motorcycle accidents and I\u2019ve had a second chance.keep praying\nHi Mary, My late father was a beneficiary of the 6th promise of the Blessed Virgin Mary whom you were obviously named after at the time of his death. One day before he traveled to the city where he died on his way of a fatal car accident, he went to his assistant Parish Priest for confession. He was such a Marian Devotee! He belonged to the Marian Order of Knighthood, He prayed his Rosary everyday even in transit on that same last trip of his earthly life. I am following his footsteps now, I pray the Rosary everyday with my wife and three children and we have benefited a lot spiritually. We feel confident that we are already on our way to heaven\nI am quite easily distracted while praying rosary like in the sense that I will be mouthing the words but my mind tends to wander round. Anything on that???\nLucille Irving says\nThere are so many things in faith that is a mystery. We will never know all the answers until we go to heaven. This is hard to understand but that is what faith is. Going on something you can\u2019t see but know in your soul it is the true. Prayer reveals more and more truths of what is right and what is wrong in this world. I have had so many miracles in my life from saying the Rosary. No, I cannot give facts but I can give testimony that there was no reason things changed when they did after the Rosary. My husbands job, my daughter finding the right husband at 38. My daughter having her first baby at 40. A Rosary for a women who couldn\u2019t conceive after 13 yrs and had a baby. She wasn\u2019t Catholic but asked me to pray a Rosary for her for this intention. She was pregnant shortly after. She believed it was my prayer. In the second Luminous mystery, Our Lady asked Jesus to fill the jugs with wine. He did what she asked. Jesus listens to his mother. I love God very much, but being a woman, I cannot think of a better role model for women today than Christs mother.\nKevin \u2013 Here are some beautiful little reflections for each mystery of the rosary that may help you: https://www.catholiccompany.com/getfed/how-to-make-first-saturday-rosary-meditation/\nSince I have been praying the rosary, 18 months my anxiety is gone and I feel Gods grace in my life. Seeing these 15 promises, has just enlightened my walking in faith together with so many Catholic brothers and sisters. My love for the Blessed Mother Mary, has increased over the past 18 months and I\u2019m sure of her promises through the Fatima miracles.\nI returned to the Church in October 1997, with a renewed understanding of the Real Presence. I promised I would attend Mass as frequently as possible and go to Confession regularly. After five months I worried I would fall away again, and someone prayed for me, asking Mary, the Mother of God to take me and show me who I am. Well, the grace of understanding fell and I realized I could go to Mary and ask her help because of all created beings, she never failed in faithfulness. I have been praying the Holy Rosary every day since. In May of 2014, I read the Diary of Elizabeth Kindleman, which is enriched with an imprimatur by Cardinal Peter Erdo and Archbishop Charles Chaput. I began to pray the \u201cFlame of Love\u201d Rosary then in my private prayers and have done so ever since. http://www.flameoflove.us/",

        "raw_content": "Patrick Michael Medeiros\n\"Love Mom, Dad & Rachel\"\nPatrick was a beautiful boy whose wide smile, big dreamy eyes, and huge hugs left a lasting impression on all he met. Patrick captivated people and we would kid him that he always seemed to have an entourage around him wherever he went. He was extremely intelligent with a heart of gold. He grew up exploring the woods with his friends, building Legos, shooting his arrows, and swinging on his rope swing. Patrick had a great love of his pets - cats as a young boy and later at college adopting an American bulldog who came up to him and placed her head on his leg. He named her Charlie and she became his constant companion. She was pregnant and a few months later he helped her give birth to 11 pups. Patrick always had a strong passion to help others. That passion carried over to everything he did \u2013 even on the playground in elementary school playing football with such abandon that he ruptured his spleen as he made \u201cthe most awesome touchdown.\u201d In Jr High school he helped carry a handicapped classmate up Mt. Cardigan the whole way to the top. He loved to camp, learned to kayak at age 4 at Cape Cod, later leading his cub scout group down the rivers of New Hampshire. Campfires mesmerized him and he often fell asleep beside them on family camping trips. He tried every sport \u2013 excelling in high school in lacrosse and soccer. His high IQ combined with a learning issue with written expression created a tough time in the normal classroom for him. Luckily he found Proctor Academy the high school that embraced these special aspects of Patrick. There he experienced learning though Ocean Classroom sailing with classmates in a 2 mast sailboat from New England down the eastern seaboard to many islands of the Caribbean. He was first to memorize all the sail knots and smiled when he told me the reward was he got to go high up in the crow\u2019s nest and paint the tar on ladders. He was most impressed by the residents of Dominican Republic and despite their poverty he was touched by their generosity. My favorite photo from the trip is of him diving into the bay on one island with a friend.\nAnother semester at Proctor was spent in Segovia, Spain living with a local family, learning Spanish and attending a local school. He told us that Spain had a great tradition where the whole family would come together midday to eat at the grandmothers. He hoped someday he could live in such a culture with his own family. Back at Proctor, Patrick was known as \u201cthe ICEMAN,\u201d a name he used when playing Warcraft and other internet games where I was told he beat everyone and acquired a great appreciation for history.\nWhen he went away to college he fell in love with his girlfriend Caroline and they embarked on a romantic 5-year relationship that had a lot of stargazing during camping trips up to the Sierras and in the desert. At college he studied Botany and Biochem. Unfortunately he started to experiment with drugs. He then traveled to Australia as part of his college\u2019s study abroad program to work toward obtaining his eventual degree in Bio Chem/Botany. There he co-authored a paper on the medicinal qualities of licorice with the Director of the program and it was published. But while in Australia, fellow students offered him what he thought was hash but turned out to be black tar heroin. This was the beginning of a 3-year struggle with the worst addiction to heroin and then programmed into a methadone treatment routine that left him lifeless and purposeless. In the last few weeks of his life he was in the process of trying to stop the use of methadone and was in the final steps toward entering a specialized rehab ibogaine clinic to work toward the goal of being clean and sober of drugs completely. However, the program required that he go off methadone and back on heroin for a short period of time. Once he was off the methadone, which was a requisite of entering the program, he went back to using heroin and died within weeks of being off the supervised methadone treatment. He had every intention of living as his next day \"to do list\" was up on his phone. He died with his beloved dog watching over him. I want everyone to know Patrick\u2019s story so you can share it with your loved ones and help people realize that it is OK to openly discuss this terrible and destructive drug. Patrick was a sweet, innocent, intelligent child who wanted to have fun socializing in college. His addiction did not start on a dark street corner with a needle in his arm. It started as a very innocent, naive kid experimenting with drugs in a college dormitory in another country which eventually led to a destructive addiction with little help offered by our society. He loved this earth and wanted to do good things while here. He told me if he died his wish was to be shot into space so he could be up there with the stars and be able to look down upon his loved ones forever.",

        "raw_content": "Mayor seeks to borrow up to $900 million more\nCFO Lois Scott, left, Ald. Edward Burke, 14th and Marla Kaiden, Chief Administrative Officer for the Committee on Finance Chicago City Council answer questions during the finance committee meeting Monday.\nCFO Lois Scott, left, Ald. Edward Burke, 14th and Marla Kaiden, Chief Administrative Officer for the Committee on Finance Chicago City Council answer questions during the finance committee meeting Monday. (Nancy Stone, Chicago Tribune)\nJason Grotto, Hal Dardick and Heather Gillers, Tribune reporters\nIn a move that will add to the city's mountain of debt, Mayor Rahm Emanuel won support Monday from the City Council's Finance Committee to issue up to $900 million in bonds backed by property taxes.\nIt's the largest request put forth during Emanuel's tenure and comes at a time when Chicago already has about $7 billion in outstanding general obligation debt, more per capita than bankrupt Detroit or any of the 10 biggest U.S. cities except New York.\nIn testimony before the committee, Chief Financial Officer Lois Scott provided a broad outline of how the bond proceeds would be spent, saying it would be consistent with previous years.\nLast year, the Tribune's \"Broken Bonds\" series revealed how city leaders have used long-term borrowing to paper over budget shortfalls and push current costs onto future generations \u2014 all with little input from taxpayers or oversight from aldermen.\nMonday, aldermen asked few questions about the borrowing as the ordinance authorizing the debt sailed through the committee with virtually no debate.\n\"It raises questions of how much City Council members understand the financial condition of the city and what the plan going forward will be to meet the debt,\" said Laurence Msall, president of the nonpartisan Civic Federation budget watchdog group.\nAlso Monday, Emanuel's finance team won tentative permission to vastly expand the amount of short-term bank loans officials can tap to infuse city coffers with much-needed cash. Known as \"commercial paper,\" the loans have been used in the past to cover a wide array of city expenses.\nChicago currently has about $425 million in commercial paper loans outstanding, an amount that has increased dramatically in recent years. Under the ordinance, the limit would be increased from $500 million to $1 billion.\nTaken together, the amount of borrowing sought by Emanuel suggests his administration continues to need huge loans to run the city.\nScott declined through a spokeswoman to be interviewed for this story. She told committee members that her department planned to issue $400 million to $450 million in general obligation bonds in March and the balance of the $900 million during the second quarter of 2014.\nShe said $130 million would go toward pushing upcoming debt payments into the future, a practice known as \"scoop and toss.\" It saves the city money in the short term but ends up costing much more in the long run. An additional $100 million, city officials say, will go to pay off commercial paper loans used to cover legal judgments.\nThat means at least half of the first round of borrowing will be used to pay one-time expenses. In an interview last year, Scott told the Tribune that strategies such as scoop and toss and paying judgments with bond proceeds help the city avoid tax increases and service cuts.\n\"Putting the full pedal down on tax increases to address these issues (is) not responsible, and it's also not responsible, long term, to borrow for any operating costs,\" she said at the time. \"So we are balancing between these, during this interim period.\"\nOthers question using bonds in this manner.\n\"The borrowing is an immediate cause of concern because it appears that it's merely pushing the principal out at a very large cost to the taxpayers,\" Msall said. \"Scooping and tossing (by state government) is prohibited under state law. It should also be prohibited for the municipalities.\"\nIn her testimony, Scott told aldermen that the use of scoop and toss would help the city \"better align revenues with our obligations.\" She did not provide details of how long the debt would be pushed off or how much it would end up costing future taxpayers, but she said the length would be \"approximately 10 years.\"\nDespite the lack of particulars on the costs or the types of projects that would be paid for with bond proceeds, most of the questions from committee members centered on whether the financial firms executing the deals are employing enough minorities.\n\"These transactions are the largest opportunities for people to make money off the government, and so we want to make sure everybody is included,\" said Ald. Walter Burnett, 27th. \"It's a lot of money. It's enough for everybody.\"\nAld. Scott Waguespack, 32nd, was the only alderman to press Scott for details on the spending, pointing to a Tribune story that raised questions about the city's use of $41 million in bond money for a run-down warehouse complex along West Pershing Road.\nScott was quick to point out that the bonds would fund the roughly $1.3 million in \"menu money\" provided annually to each alderman. The program allows aldermen to launch projects in their wards, including street repaving, sidewalk reconstruction and other minor improvements.\nAfter the meeting, Waguespack said he was concerned about undertaking so much borrowing after two major bond rating agencies last year downgraded the city's creditworthiness by three notches, which will make borrowing costs higher. The city's triple downgrade will cost it $500,000 to $1 million more a year for every $100 million in bonds issued, Scott told aldermen last year.\nWaguespack also was concerned that the city wasn't providing aldermen with a detailed list of what all the money would be used for.\n\"We've been voting on a lot of these bond issues not knowing specifically what we're voting on, and that's what we're trying to get today,\" Waguespack said after the committee vote. \"Tell us exactly what we're spending this money on. They've given us some specific numbers, but not specific tasks, projects or equipment that they're spending it on.\"\nAld. Bob Fioretti, 2nd, who like Waguespack is a frequent critic of the administration's financial practices, agreed, describing the ordinance to authorize the borrowing as \"carte blanche.\"\n\"We spent more time discussing the issues on who's representing who rather than where these deals are going and what the impact is, and that's where we should be focusing on,\" Fioretti said.\nFioretti also criticized the practice of borrowing money to pay off legal settlements rather than including those costs in the city's annual budget.\n\"Those should have been budgeted,\" he said. \"What happened to our actual budgeting? If that's the way we're going to approach this, we're heading toward a financial collapse \u2014 not today, not tomorrow, but in a future City Council somewhere down the line.\"\nIn addition to taking on more long-term debt, Emanuel's finance team sought to double its short-term borrowing capacity through commercial paper loans. Often, the city has turned those loans into long-term debts by paying them off with more general obligation bonds.\nThe commercial paper program dates to 2002, when Mayor Richard M. Daley won approval to borrow up to $200 million a year. In 2012, Emanuel increased that amount to $500 million a year. The current proposal would double that to $1 billion.\n\"That starts raising questions, legitimate questions of why the increase?\" said Bart Hildreth, a professor at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies at Georgia State University. \"Commercial paper can be used to paper over operating deficits.\"\nHildreth also said borrowing can be a more appealing option than budget cuts for officials facing a re-election campaign. \"(Emanuel's) got that trade-off between doing what the voters apparently want and doing what the long-term interest of the city might be.\"\nThe city, Scott said, had already requested bids from banks that want to participate in the commercial paper borrowing.\nScott said the firms involved include Morgan Stanley, one of the companies behind the controversial 2008 parking meter deal. This will be Morgan Stanley's first deal with the city since then, she said.\nScott provided even fewer details on how the administration would use proceeds from commercial paper borrowing, other than to say it would provide liquidity and give the city more flexibility. Aldermen asked few questions about the program.\nThe ordinance will go to the full City Council on Wednesday, when it is expected to pass.\nhgillers@tribune.com\nWalter Burnett, Jr.",

In common with companies like HP and Cisco, Dell is looking to develop an all-encompassing architecture within the datacentre, supporting servers, storage, networking and virtualisation.\nThe company's Virtual Integrated System (VIS) has been designed to support organisation's existing data centre architecture while moving to a virtual environment.\n\"VIS is not a product,\" said Ed English, Dell's head of product marketing for large enterprises. \"It's a strategy, not a solution in itself. But there are products within VIS. We launched our Advanced Infrastructure Manager (AIM) earlier in the year and we're announcing two new components: Creator and Director.\"\nThe Dell VIS Self-Service Creator, as its name implies, is a way for organisations to pick and choose business applications. It works by offering a customised catalogue of IT applications and resources, reducing the time it takes to deploy a workload to just minutes. English said that a data centre manager looking to allocate resources has a headache when it comes to dealing with individual requests as they must be managed. \"It's much simpler if you can create small individual templates for specific departments.\"\n\"But,\" he warned, \"this can't be about creating a free-for-all, that creates problems of its own. However, by pricing those templates and giving departments budgets, it manages the process. In addition, it gives orga nisations an opportunity to introduce chargeback.\"\nVIS Creator is available now but the other new product from Dell, VIS Director, won't be available until next year. Dell VIS Director is an operations hub for the virtual environment, providing organisations with a monitoring and capacity planning tool, as well acting as a product to handle utilisation reporting. According to English, Director would also offer integration to existing management tools such as Tivoli, if this were the customer's preferred option.\nEnglish said that Director does two things allowed the administrator to look backwards.\" It looks at templates and the workload that has been deployed on those templates.\" He said that in the longer term, the company was hoping to allow automatic fixes. \" If, for example, if a workload was too large or too small for the template. Then the system would automatically implement instant remediation, by kicking off a request to Director to allocate more resources. However, this is not something we're going to introduce immediately,\" English warned.\nAs well as the new products, English said that Dell was introducing a set of consultancy services to complement the new launches. \"We're very conscious of the fact that customers have real challenges moving from rack and stack,\" he said.",

He also makes jokes about politics, fame, celebrities, relationships, and race. In fact, he\u2019s quite famous for speaking candidly about race relations in the United States. Rock does works blue and frequently uses the \u201cn-word\u201d on stage, something that has drawn great criticism from comic Bill Cosby.\nBottom line, if you have Chris Rock tickets expect to laugh very hard. He\u2019s the funny bone that connects the legacies of Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy to careers of Dave Chappelle and Kevin Hart.\nRock was born February 7, 1965 in South Carolina, but grew up in Brooklyn. While in Brooklyn, Rock\u2019s parents enrolled him in a predominately white school outside of his neighborhood where they believed he would receive a better education. Instead, he received a rather poor education and was the target of daily bullying.\nRock began his stand-up career in 1984 in New York City and quickly excelled. He was discovered by Eddie Murphy who took him under his wing and gave him a role in Beverley Hills Cop 2 (1987). Another of Rock\u2019s early film roles came in the 1988 cult classic, I\u2019m Gonna Git You Sucka.\nRock became a Saturday Night Live cast member in 1990. Like many talented and hilarious individuals he floundered on SNL. Despite his struggles, Saturday Night Live gave Rock national exposure. He left the show in 1993.\nAfter SNL, Rock found success in movies, television, stand-up, and Broadway. Rock starred in the films The Longest Yard, Bad Company, and Down to Earth. His several HBO comedy specials earned him three Emmy Awards. Meanwhile, his comedy albums have captured three Grammy Awards. In 2011, Rock appeared in the acclaimed stage play \u201cThe Motherf**ker with the Hat\u201d which ran at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in Broadway.\nThanks to his appearance on the PBS show African American Lives 2, Rock learned that his great-great-grandfather was a slave for 21 years before fighting in the Civil War.

        "raw_content": "Book Summary of Go Set a Watchman\nAt a Glance Go Set a Watchman\nCharacter List of Go Set a Watchman\nGo Set a Watchman covers four primary periods in the life of Jean Louise Finch:\n1. Childhood Memories\nAlthough Go Set a Watchman is set when Jean Louise is 26 years old, her flashbacks to childhood make up a significant portion of the novel. Jean Louise\u2019s mother died when Jean Louise was 2 years old, and her father, Atticus, and her family\u2019s black cook, Calpurnia, raised her. As a young girl, Jean Louise spent most of her time playing games of make believe with her brother, Jem, and their friend Dill. During this childhood, Atticus defended a black man accused of rape in a high-profile trial.\nWhen Jean Louise reached puberty, she found herself needing to rely on someone other than Atticus for the first time. Because she didn\u2019t have a mother and never received a systematic sex education, she was misled by one of the girls at her school into thinking that kissing causes pregnancy. After a boy kissed her against her will, she thought she was pregnant and tried to commit suicide, but Hank rescued her. After this, Calpurnia gave her the sex education she never got from her mother.\nHank proved to be a hero once again when Jean Louise attended her first high school dance. She wore a pair of false breasts underneath her dress that slipped out of place while she was dancing. Hank noticed and took her outside, where he threw the offending \u201cfalsies\u201d into the darkness. The next day, the high school principal was furious after finding the falsies hanging from a school billboard and threatened to punish the owner. Hank cleverly managed to keep both himself and Jean Louise from getting into trouble.\n2. Homecoming (Saturday)\nJean Louise travels by train from New York City to her childhood home of Maycomb, Alabama. At the train station, she is met by Hank, who has always loved her and asks her to marry him on their drive home. Jean Louise refuses but agrees to go on a date with him. They return home, where Jean Louise sees her father, Atticus, and her aunt Alexandra. The four of them make small talk, briefly discussing politics and recent court rulings undoing racial segregation in the South.\nAfter Hank and Atticus leave for work, Alexandra tells Jean Louise that Hank would not be a suitable husband because he is of a lower social status. Alexandra\u2019s prohibition makes Jean Louise more interested in marrying Hank than she has ever been. She and Hank go on a date that night, visiting a dock that the Finch family used to own. They flirt and push each other into the water.\n3. Disenchantment (Sunday)\nThe next morning, town gossips claim that Hank and Jean Louise were swimming naked the night before. Alexandra is furious that Jean Louise has damaged the family\u2019s reputation, but Atticus doesn\u2019t mind. They attend church, where the music director, Herbert Jemson, tries to play new music because a Northerner told him to. Uncle Jack chides Herbert and insists that traditional Southern hymns are better.\nAfter Sunday dinner, Hank and Atticus go to a citizens\u2019 council meeting at the courthouse. Jean Louise finds a pamphlet about the inferiority of black people in the living room, and Alexandra tells her that it belongs to Atticus. Troubled, Jean Louise goes to the courthouse and eavesdrops on the meeting, where a pro-segregation speaker talks about black people by using the same offensive language as the pamphlet, and Atticus and Hank sit there seeming to approve of his words. Jean Louise can\u2019t believe that her father and Hank would be part of such a group\u2014especially not Atticus, who has always fought for justice for blacks.\nShocked by what she has seen and heard, Jean Louise wanders out of the courthouse and to the site of her childhood home, where an ice cream parlor now stands. She buys a pint of ice cream, eats it, and vomits. Then she goes home and goes straight to bed, asking Alexandra to cancel her date with Hank and to tell him she is having her period.\n4. Coming of Age (Monday)\nJean Louise wakes up early on Monday and mows the lawn until her aunt yells at her to stop waking the neighbors. Hank comes over during breakfast to tell Atticus that Calpurnia\u2019s grandson Frank hit and killed a white man while driving his father Zeebo\u2019s car. Atticus says he will take the case to keep the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) from getting involved. Jean Louise goes to visit Calpurnia, hoping to console her and to be consoled in return. Calpurnia is polite but distant, treating Jean Louise as a \u201cwhite person,\u201d not as someone who is nearly family.\nJean Louise attends a \u201cCoffee\u201d (a women\u2019s social event) that Alexandra holds in Jean Louise\u2019s honor, where she listens to women talk about race and realizes that her community has always been far more racist than she realized. Afterward, she goes to visit Uncle Jack, who tells her that she needs to understand Southern history in order to understand the racial tensions around her. When she leaves, Jack calls Atticus to tell him about her crisis of belief.\nJean Louise goes downtown to confront first Hank and then Atticus. Although neither one totally agrees with the racist rhetoric of the citizens\u2019 council, both of them have reasons for choosing to tolerate it. Jean Louise condemns them both and returns home to pack and leave Maycomb for good. Uncle Jack comes to stop her, and when she won\u2019t listen, he hits her so hard she nearly passes out.\nThe blow calms Jean Louise, and she listens quietly as Jack tells her that the real root of her anger is that she has always relied on Atticus as a model of right and wrong, and now for the first time she is developing a conscience of her own. Jean Louise goes to pick up Atticus from work and asks his forgiveness, but he says he is proud of her for defending what she believes is right.\nPrevious At a Glance Go Set a Watchman\nNext Character List of Go Set a Watchman\nWhy is Jean Louise surprised when Hank meets her at the train station?\nShe expected to take a taxi home.\nShe expected Atticus to meet her instead.\nShe thought Hank had moved to Europe.",

        "raw_content": "Home / News / Future Crew Friday Meet Robert Giuliani\nadventure Crew Future Crew Friday\nTeams PSP Logistics\nThis week we catch up with Minnesota chef Robert, who in less than 93 days\u2019 time will be at the start line to race 40,000 miles across the world\u2019s oceans.\nRobert is in the UK for the first time and has just completed his second of four compulsory levels of race training. When he isn\u2019t busy in the kitchen at his family restaurant, Robert races on the Great Lakes and has been sailing for the past 12 years.\nWhy is Robert planning on sailing round the world and what has been his favourite meal on board? Let\u2019s find out in today\u2019s edition of Future Crew Friday.\nName: Robert Giuliani\nOccupation: Chef and restaurant owner\nA friend and I were talking about the Volvo Ocean Race and how fun it would be to sail around the world. He showed me the Clipper Race website and jokingly I said I was going to do it. So it was more of a challenge, but it was a good challenge because I know when I get back in a year\u2019s time it will have been a life changing experience. We will see what happens, for all I know I could just keep on sailing.\nWhy did you choose to do the full circumnavigation?\nI\u2019m an all or nothing kind of guy so if I\u2019m going to do it I\u2019m going to go for the whole thing. I knew I wouldn\u2019t be satisfied if I didn\u2019t. There are also a lot of places I haven\u2019t seen and cultures I haven\u2019t experienced and I thought it would be a great opportunity alongside making some great friendships.\nWhat have been the highlights of your Clipper Race experience so far?\nThe highlight has been getting to know the other crew members. I know that at the end I am going to establish a family with the people that I race with and on other teams. The training itself has been wonderful, I have learnt so much. The way the skippers teach, they have given me confidence in what I am getting into, making sure that when I finish my training it is going to be really beneficial for the actual race.\nWhat has been the most challenging experience?\nI have a fear of heights, so for me going up the mast was a big accomplishment. Being the chef on board is going to be a new challenge for me. I am so used to being in a kitchen and having to provision for 21 people at sea in the galley it is important that the crew are satisfied with your meals. A happy well fed crew is a fast crew!\nWhat has been the best meal on board so far?\nOn Level 1 we had an Indian dish with rice and it was the most amazing thing, I enjoyed that. When I cooked this week, I made sandwiches with bread, cheese and poached apples which I baked so the cheese melted and the apples caramelised, I am really interested to make some great meals with the provisions we have and keep the crew happy.\nWhat do your family and friends think about you doing the race?\nIt\u2019s going to be hard for my friends and family to come and visit, but I hope they will be able to come and see me on the American legs. The people in my town are really supportive; it\u2019s a good sized town and being the first person from Duluth to do this means they are going to be watching.\nI really want to share my experience with everyone back home, one of my other professions is working with kids in youth for the school district and I work with them to create new recipes for the school lunches. I would like to connect with them to learn what it\u2019s like to sail on an open ocean with them to hopefully give them the drive to go out and achieve their goals.\nIf you would like to join Robert to race the world\u2019s oceans this year, contact Crew Recruitment Manager, Della Parsons on dparsons@clipper-ventures.com . We are now also recruiting for the Clipper 2017-18 Race.\nIn this week\u2019s Future Crew Friday we catch up with round the world crew member, Jimmy Gannon from New South Wales, Australia.Jimmy first heard about the race on his way home from work at North Sydney Train Station when he saw a race billboard \"sail\u2026\nFuture Crew Catch Up - Meet Anna Siraut\nIn this week\u2019s Future Crew Friday we catch up with Anna who had no previous sailing experience before she heard\u2026\nIn this week\u2019s Future Crew Friday, we catch up with Steven.

        "title": "Programmable Caches Is Patent Eligible Subject Matter",
        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u00bb Patents \u00bb Programmable Caches Operable with Different Processors Enhancing Computer Performance Is Patent Eligible Subject Matter\nThe Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed a trial court\u2019s decision and held that a programmable memory caches, permitting the system to operate with different processors, which enhances computer performance is patent eligible subject matter under 35 U.S.C. sec 101 and the Supreme Court case of Alice Corp. Pty. v. CLS Bank Int\u2019l, 134 S. Ct. 2347 (2014). See Visual Memory LLC v. Nvidia Corp., Case No. 2016-2254 (Fed. Cir. Aug, 15, 2017) (Available Here).\nThe U.S. district court (the trial court) held that Visual Memory\u2019s \u2018740 Patent was drawn to patent ineligible subject matter. Reversing the trial court\u2019s decision, the Federal Circuit concluded that the \u2019740 patent claims an improvement to computer memory systems and is not directed to an abstract idea.\nThe \u2019740 patent teaches that computer systems frequently use a three-tiered memory hierarchy to enhance performance. The three tiers include: 1) a low-cost, low speed memory, such as a magnetic disk, for bulk storage of data; 2) a medium-speed memory that serves as the main memory; and 3) an expensive, high-speed memory that acts as a processor cache memory. See the \u2019740 patent. Because the cache memory is the most expensive, it is typically smaller than the main memory and cannot always store all the data required by the processor. The memory hierarchy alleviates the limitations imposed by the cache\u2019s size because it allows code and non-code data to be transferred from the main memory to the cache during operation to ensure that the currently executing program has quick access to the required data. Replacement algorithms determine which data should be transferred from the main memory to the cache and which data in the cache should be replaced. As a result, the code and non-code data to be executed by the processor are continually grouped into the cache, thereby facilitating rapid access for the currently executing program. These prior art memory systems lacked versatility because they were designed and optimized based on the specific type of processor.\nThe \u2019740 patent overcomes these deficiencies by creating a memory system with programmable operational characteristics that can be tailored for use with multiple different processors without the accompanying reduction in performance. The three caches possess programmable operational characteristics that are programmable based on the type of processor connected to the memory system. When the system is turned on, information about the type of processor is used to self-configure the programmable operational characteristics. Using a programmable operational characteristic based on the processor type can also improve the main memory.\nClaim 1 of the Patent states: \u201cA computer memory system connectable to a processor and having one or more programmable operational characteristics, said characteristics being defined through configuration by said computer based on the type of said processor, wherein said system is connectable to said processor by a bus, said system comprising: [a] a main memory connected to said bus; and [b] a cache connected to said bus; [c] wherein a programmable operational characteristic of said system determines a type of data stored by said cache.\u201d\nNVIDIA filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). The district court granted NVIDIA\u2019s motion. Under Step One of the Alice test, the trial court concluded that the claims were directed to the \u201cabstract idea of categorical data storage,\u201d which humans have practiced for many years. The trial court\u2019s Step-Two analysis found no inventive concept. See Step One and Step Two Alice Corp. Pty. v. CLS Bank Int\u2019l, 134 S. Ct. 2347, 2354 (2014) (quoting Mayo, 566 U.S. at 71).\nThe Federal Circuit analysis began with Alice Step One. The Appeals Court articulated with specificity what the claims are directed to, Thales Visionix Inc. v. United States, 850 F.3d 1343, 1347 (Fed. Cir. 2017), and \u201cask[ed] whether the claims are directed to an improvement to computer functionality versus being directed to an abstract idea.\u201d Enfish, 822 F.3d at 1335 (\u201c[S]ome improvements in computer-related technology when appropriately claimed are undoubtedly not abstract, such as a chip architecture, an LED display, and the like.\u201d). \u201cIn Enfish, we held claims reciting a self-referential table for a computer database were patent-eligible under Alice step one because the claims were directed to an improvement in the computer\u2019s functionality. We emphasized that the key question is \u2018whether the focus of the claims is on the specific asserted improvement in computer capabilities (i.e., the self-referential table for a computer database) or, instead, on a process that qualifies as an \u2018abstract idea\u2019 for which computers are invoked merely as a tool.\u2019 Id. at 1335\u201336. Moreover, it was appropriate to consider the technological improvement embodied in the claims at step one, we explained, because Alice does not \u2018broadly hold that all improvements in computer-related technology are inherently abstract and, therefore, must be considered at step two.\u2019 Id. at 1335.\u201d\nIn Thales, the Court determined that claims reciting a unique configuration of inertial sensors and the use of a mathematical equation for calculating the location and orientation of an object relative to a moving platform were patent-eligible under Alice Step One. The Thales patented system achieved greater accuracy than these prior art systems by measuring inertial changes of the tracked object relative to the moving platform\u2019s reference frame.\nAs an example in Visual Memory\u2019s Dependent claims 2 and 3, the claims narrow the cache\u2019s programmable operational characteristic to storing certain types of data (\u201conly code data or . . . both code data and non-code data\u201d) and buffering data from certain sources (\u201cbuffering of data solely from said bus master or . . . both from said bus master and said processor\u201d), respectively. The Patent in suit specification explains multiple benefits for the patented system.\n\u201cAs with Enfish\u2019s self-referential table and the motion tracking system in Thales, the claims here are directed to a technological improvement: an enhanced computer memory system. The \u2019740 patent\u2019s claims focus on a \u2018specific asserted improvement in computer capabilities\u2019 \u2014 the use of programmable operational characteristics that are configurable based on the type of processor\u2014 instead of \u2018on a process that qualifies as an \u2018abstract idea\u2019 for which computers are invoked merely as a tool.\u2019\u201d\nThe Appeals Court discussed Content Extraction & Transmission LLC v. Wells Fargo Bank, 776 F.3d 1343 (Fed. Cir. 2014) and In re TLI Communications LLC Patent Litigation, 823 F.3d 607 (Fed. Cir. 2016). \u201cIn Content Extraction, we reviewed a series of patents claiming a method of using a computer and a scanner to extract data from hard copy documents, recognizing specific information in the extracted data, and storing that information in memory. In TLI Communications, the invention\ninvolved assigning \u2018classification data,\u2019 such as timestamps or dates, to digital images, sending the images to a server, extracting the classification data, and having the server take the classification data into consideration when storing the digital images.\u201d These patents defined ineligible patent subject matter.\nContrary to the Trial Court\u2019s decision in the present case, a discussion of whether a patent specification teaches an ordinarily skilled artisan how to implement the claimed invention presents an enablement issue under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 112, not an eligibility issue under \u00a7 101.\nThe Appeals Court then remanded the case to the trial court for further consideration.",

As I wrote here earlier this month,the SEC has already had to shelve its plan to open the new whistleblower office mandated by Dodd-Frank, an office that will be critical to its efforts to handle the expected crush of whistleblower tips. The whistleblower office was put on hold because the SEC's budget, which was slated to increase significantly under Dodd-Frank, remains frozen at FY2010 levels due to an impasse in Congress.\nNow, the WSJ reports,the SEC has been forced to postpone testimony in some of its investigations and audits outside Washington, D.C. because the SEC won't pay the travel costs.

Employees and managers in the involved subsidiaries attempted to conceal the true nature of the transactions through the use of complicit third parties and by improperly recording the relevant transactions on the books and records of the respective subsidiaries, which were consolidated in the financial reports of Novartis.

He was 95 years young.\nPop, no words can describe the impact you\u2019ve had on all of our lives. You were a wise, supportive and loving father, who gave of himself and was always there whenever we needed you. Mom has been waiting for you at Heaven\u2019s doors for a while, and now you can be \u201cTogether Forever\u201d.\nPeter was a Navy veteran of World War II and a lifelong Yankees fan. His favorite activities were fishing, bowling, playing racquetball with his best friend Joe, and most of all, playing golf. Peter retired as a Manager after 25 years from Circle \u201cF\u201d Industries in Trenton NJ. Peter\u2019s real love & passion was his music. He was a self-taught musician, who learned to read, and write music in his early 20\u2019s. He played in and helped arrange music for some of the Big Bands at that time. Peter has written well over 600 copyrighted songs, and his last CD was released in 2016. Some of his songs are on records, some on CD\u2019s, some in movies, and many in cable TV series. His greatest satisfaction, and realization of his lifelong dream came from looking at his computer every morning, with his cup of tea to see who listened to and enjoyed his music. A life very well lived.\nSon of the late Andrew and Mary Sivo, he was born July 24, 1923 in Trenton, NJ. He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Rose (Pelegrini) Sivo, 2 brothers, Anthony Sivo, Andrew Sivo, and sister Louise Bruni. He is survived by his son, Peter Sivo Jr., his wife Flory \u201cPatricia\u201d Sivo, of Middletown NY, granddaughters Katherine Jaramillo, Patricia Jaramillo, grandson Josue Jaramillo and his cherished great grandchildren, Melanie, Melody, Fiona, Raquel, Benjamin, Cristian, and Mathias.\nPer his wishes he will be cremated and the memorial service private.\nOur family would like to extend our love, respect, and sincere gratitude to \u201cour new family\u201d the West team from Hospice of Orange & Sullivan Counties Inc. Your love, dedication, and compassion is without equal. Thank you all for everything.\nMemorial donations in Peter\u2019s memory may be made to Hospice of Orange & Sullivan Counties Inc., 800 Stony Brook Court, Newburgh, NY 12550, hospiceoforange.com, or to the charity of one\u2019s choice.",

Jerry Melnick looks at developments that he expects to see in the areas of cloud, high availability, DevOps, IT operations analytics and artificial intelligence.\nThe cloud will become more suitable for critical applications\nAdvances in technology will make the cloud substantially more suitable for critical applications. With IT staff now becoming more comfortable using the cloud, their concerns about security and reliability, especially for five-9\u2019s of uptime, have diminished substantially. Initially, organizations will prefer to use whatever failover clustering technology they currently use in their data centers / centres to protect the critical applications being migrated to the cloud. This clustering technology will also be adapted and optimized for enhanced operations the cloud. At the same time, cloud service providers will continue to advance their service levels, leading to the cloud ultimately becoming the preferred platform for all enterprise applications.\nDynamic utilization will make HA and DR more cost-effective for more applications, further driving migration to the cloud\nDynamic utilization of the cloud\u2019s vast resources will enable IT to more effectively manage and orchestrate the services needed to support mission critical applications. With its virtually unlimited resources spread around the globe, the cloud is the ideal platform for delivering high uptime. But provisioning standby resources that sit idle most of the time has been cost-prohibitive for many applications. The increasing sophistication of fluid cloud resources deployed across multiple zones and regions, all connected via high-quality internetworking, now enables standby resources to be allocated dynamically only when needed, which will dramatically lower the cost of provisioning high availability and disaster recovery protections.\nThe Cloud Will Become a Preferred Platform for SAP Deployments\nGiven its mission critical nature, IT departments have historically chosen to implement SAP and SAP S4/HANA in enterprise data centers, where the staff enjoys full control over the environment. As the platforms offered by cloud service providers continue to mature, their ability to host SAP applications will become commercially viable and, therefore, strategically important. For CSPs, SAP hosting will be a way to secure long-term engagements with enterprise customers. For the enterprise, \u2018SAP-as-a-Service\u2019 will be a way to take full advantage of the enormous economies of scale in the cloud without sacrificing performance or availability.\nCloud \u2018quick-start\u2019 templates will become the standard for complex software and service deployments\nAdvanced analytics and artificial intelligence will be everywhere and in everything, including infrastructure operations\nJerry Melnick is president and CEO of SIOS Technology",

        "raw_content": "The radical case against the single market is no myth\nLaunch of \"Busting the Lexit Myths\" in Parliament. Photo: Youtube\nIn response to a recently published report, Reuben Bard-Rosenberg takes apart some of the arguments made by the Labour Campaign for the Single Market\nThere has been an upsurge in activity from the Labour Campaign for the Single Market. A couple of weeks ago the centrist-dominated group convened in parliament and released a report entitled Busting The Lexit Myths - which claimed to demolish the left-wing case for leaving the single market. A radical Labour government, so the authors claimed, would not be prevented from pursuing an active industrial strategy by rules that come with membership of the single market. Conversely, the authors argued, leaving the single market would make Britain poorer but would not offer substantially more scope for radical redistributive policies.\nBefore scrutinizing the content of the report itself, it is worth saying a bit about what is at stake here. Particularly on the left the idea of an \"active industrial policy\" is invoked far more than it is fleshed out. The idea is an important one. The latest stats show that unemployment is down but wages are still stagnating. The dearth of good jobs - especially outside of the new economy hot-spots - is one of the fundamental problems facing the UK economy. This is not something that can be dealt with simply by reversing austerity. Nor can the millions of good jobs we need simply be regulated into existence - important as it is to raise the minimum wage and crack down on zero hours contracts. A radical industrial strategy would mean the government becoming actively involved in the question of what we produce and how we produce it, in order to address the slow burn jobs crisis. This could mean anything from directing investment towards green tech to nationalising stricken industries in order to protect jobs.\nOver the past four years thousands of steel workers have lost their livelihoods as the industry has been brought to its knees by plummeting prices. To many a sane observer, subsidising the industry, or nationalising it at a loss would be a small price to pay compared with the social and economic damage that has been wrought by rapid industrial collapse - though it is a solution that sits uneasily with EU strictures against state aid.\nIn Busting The Lexit Myths, Nick Donavan claims to demolish the \u201cmyth\u201d that \u201cthe single market\u2019s rules on state aid restrict the ability of the UK government to provide support to key industries\u201d. \u201cGermany, Spain and Italy all support their steel industries within state aid rules through loan guarantees, taking public stakes or offsetting energy costs.\u201d he argues, \u201cit\u2019s just the UK government chooses not to\u201d.\nHe is right that the Tory Government must take its share of the responsibility for the job losses in steel. Yet, what the author doesn\u2019t mention is that here too the EU has intervened to limit state aid, and that the permitted level of intervention has been insufficient to avert a Europe-wide jobs crisis in the industry. Just before Chistmas, the EU concluded its investigation into two life-line loans totalling \u20ac700m that were made to major Italian steel producer, ILVA. These were made in 2015 and backed by government guarantees (assurances that the lenders would get their money back from the government if the business failed). The commission concluded that these constituted illegal state aid.\nAs a consequence, ILVA will need to pay back \u20ac84 million \u201cthe difference between the terms of the loan and guarantee in favour of ILVA and appropriate market terms.\u201d The logic here derives from EU law under which the \u201cmarket test\u201d is applied. A sector or a firm which accesses resources under terms that are more favourable than those which would have been available on the open market is deemed to receive an \u201cunfair advantage\u201d. What this effectively means it is left to bond-traders, rather than elected governments, to determine what options are available for managing the future of organisations upon which thousands of people depend.\nImportantly, this market test applies not only to private businesses but also to state-owned enterprises. To stick with the example of steel, if the government had nationalised the industry to avert it going under this would mean that, in the immediate term, the government have had a large loss making enterprise, and the responsibility for thousands of livelihoods upon its hands. If it were to act as anything other than other than an asset stripper it would need to invest a substantial amount of money into New British Steel in order to turn it into something viable. But would it be allowed to? The answer is, within the single market, probably not.\nUnder EU law, a government investing in its own enterprises potentially breaches state aid laws if \u201cfresh capital is contributed in circumstances that would not be acceptable to a private investor operating under prevailing market conditions\u201d - that is to say, if the government makes an investment decision that would not have been contemplated by a profit-seeking financier. This is held to be the case \u201cwhere the financial position of the company... is such that a normal return cannot be expected within a reasonable time from the capital invested\u201d or where for any other reason \u201cthe company would be unable to raise the funds needed for an investment programme on the capital markets\u201d. In short, the limitations against government investment apply precisely in those cases where such investment is most necessary in order to protect working people from the vicissitudes of the market.\n\u201cBusting The Lexit Myths\u201d seems to acknowledge this but fails to recognise its implications. \u201cInvestments in companies where there is a functioning market need to be akin to an investment that a rational economic investor would make\u201d Nick Donovan writes. \u201cHowever, this criterion does not apply where there is not a functioning market \u2013 then the state can act to meet social needs, including through subsidies and public ownership.\u201d To say this is to confuse an industrial policy with public services. Obviously the government can, within or outside the EU, maintain a road system or run schools. Yet it is the ability of government to intervene in, and invest in, the production of goods and services for which there is a market - everything from steel to transport services - that will be crucial to addressing the long term crisis in jobs and incomes.\nDonovan States that a National Investment Bank - a real centre piece of last Labour Manifesto - would be allowed under EU state aid laws. But the question is, what sort of investment bank? For such an institution to have any social utility, it would have make investment decisions on a different basis from a standard profit-seeking financier. If it was to do anything more than double up on the efforts of the market, then it would need to invest in projects that were not capable of generating sufficient private profit to be viable but which could be justified by their wider social and economic utility. And yet as we have seen, it is precisely the sort of investment that private banks would not make which falls foul of EU state aid rule. Thus in 2016 the public investment authorities in Belgium were ordered to recover E211m that they had invested in a steel plant on the grounds that \u201cno private investor would have accepted to invest at the same terms\u201d and the that investment therefore \u201cdistorted competition\u201d.\nThe WTO Red Herring\nThe pamphlet also assails the idea of Lexit on the grounds that \u201cthere is no escape from state aid rules\u201d. \u201cEven the hardest form of Brexit\u201d Nick Donovan writes\u201d trading under WTO rules, means complying with WTO anti-subsidy provisions\u201d. What he doesn\u2019t mention is that WTO anti-subsidy provisions are a completely different kettle of fish from EU state aid rules - being far narrower in their scope, far less stringent in their implementation and fundamentally different in how they operate.\nWTO rules start from the presumption that subsidies are permissible, whereas the EU starts from the presumption that subsidies are illegal. Hence, under WTO rules a government is free to subsidise state-owned enterprises or private businesses and it is up to other governments to demonstrate the subsidy breaks the relatively limited rules before action can be taken. By contrast, before any subsidy is granted within the European Single Market - including those that go to state-owned enterprises - the government in question is expected to put it before the jurisdiction of the European Commission.\nPerhaps more importantly, WTO anti-subsidy provisions only apply where government aid can be shown to materially distort the pattern of international trade - by reducing another country\u2019s exports or increasing its imports. By contrast, EU state aid provisions effectively apply to any good or service that can be bought or sold. Just as long as a public or private entity produces something which could be traded between member states, the subsidy is held to fall under the remit of EU state aid laws - regardless or whether or not the good or service is actually being exported or imported. Significantly, this can also apply to public services for which there is a market. It was on this basis that the lifeline ferry services operating between the Scottish Mainland and the Scottish Islands were deemed to fall under the remit of EU state-aid rules and were forced open to competitive tender - something that would have been unimaginable and impossible on the basis of WTO rules alone.\nMeanwhile, even where government-aid is judged by the WTO to have broken the rules, it is dealt with a way that is far less stringent. That is to say, the WTO can order a government to stop or change subsidy. What it can\u2019t do is apply its judgement retroactively and order the government to recover any money that it is so far given. By contrast, it is the norm, when government aid is found to be in breach of EU single market rules, for the government to be ordered to take back any aid it has so far given.\nFinally, there are important differences with regard to who can take action. Under the WTO, a subsidy is treated as legal unless another national government brings a case.\nIn the single market, governments can be sued by private companies. That is to say, if a future Corbyn government invested in a private or national enterprise and a firm in Britain or elsewhere felt that their business opportunities had suffered, then that business could bring a case to the European Commission. SImilarly the unelected European Commission can itself take action against a subsidy, order to protect the hallowed deity which is undistorted competition, regardless of whether anybody at all considers themselves to be the injured party in relation to that subsidy.\nA Moderate Trojan Horse\nIt is unsurprising that these days the right wing of the Labour Party are asserting themselves first and foremost in relation to the European question. After two leadership elections and the huge vote for Corbyn at the general election, all but the most swivel-eyed centrist dads have grasped that the appetite for liberal pro-status quo politics is now seriously limited. The appeal of Europe to labour \u201cmoderates\u201d is that the issue appears to stand beyond the left-right spectrum, and hence it allows opponents of the labour leadership - who still dominate the PLP - to assail Corbyn and McDonnell from the right without looking as though they are doing so.\nThe reality, as we have seen, is that a future Corbyn led government is now a very real possibility, and whether or not Britain stays in the single market will be in influencing just how economically radical such a government might be. But the question of single market membership is also so much bigger than issue of what a specific government may do. It is a question about the scope of politics itself.\nThose who followed the last US presidential election might remember that the question of trade was paramount. Established free trade policies - particularly membership of NAFTA - were attacked not just by Trump (who thus far has done nothing to upset the commercial status quo) but also, very powerfully, by Bernie Sanders who promised to protect workers from a never ending race to the bottom. Those who follow British elections will be aware that the question of trade policy - crucial though it is to jobs, pay much else - never comes to the fore at British elections. And that is because the question of trade been effectively removed from the remit of public politics.\nThis is because it is not elected politicians who decide to keep domestic workers in a state of unfettered competition with the world\u2019s sweatshop-export economies, but Europe\u2019s unelected trade commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom. In much the same way, bureaucratic prohibition against so many forms of public investment and government intervention contained within Europe\u2019s state aid rules serves to keep this issues off the political table, and serves to stop the free-market status from resembling anything akin to a political choice.\nIf we wish to press forward with radical and progressive demands about how Britain\u2019s economy and society is to be organised - for which there is surely right now a great appetite - then our starting point must be an exit from the single market.\nTagged under: Neoliberalism Labour EU Jeremy Corbyn Brexit",

We report here the hyperpolarization of [1-(13)C]-ascorbic acid (AA) and [1-(13)C]-dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), the reduced and oxidized forms of vitamin C, respectively, and evaluate their performance as probes of tumor redox state. Solution-state polarization of 10.5 \u00b1 1.3% was achieved for both forms at pH 3.2, whereas at pH 7.0, [1-(13)C]-AA retained polarization of 5.1 \u00b1 0.6% and [1-(13)C]-DHA retained 8.2 \u00b1 1.1%. The spin-lattice relaxation times (T(1)'s) for these labeled nuclei are long at 9.4 T: 15.9 \u00b1 0.7 s for AA and 20.5 \u00b1 0.9 s for DHA. Extracellular oxidation of [1-(13)C]-AA and intracellular reduction of [1-(13)C]-DHA were observed in suspensions of murine lymphoma cells. The spontaneous reaction of DHA with the cellular antioxidant glutathione was monitored in vitro and was approximately 100-fold lower than the rate observed in cell suspensions, indicating enzymatic involvement in the intracellular reduction. [1-(13)C]-DHA reduction was also detected in lymphoma tumors in vivo. In contrast, no detectable oxidation of [1-(13)C]-AA was measured in the same tumors, consistent with the notion that tumors maintain a reduced microenvironment. This study demonstrates that hyperpolarized (13)C-labeled vitamin C could be used as a noninvasive biomarker of redox status in vivo, which has the potential to translate to the clinic.\nhttp://doi.org/10.1021/ja2045925",

        "raw_content": "JA Griffiths, A Scialdone, JC Marioni\nBACKGROUND: Aneuploidies are copy number variants that affect entire chromosomes. They are seen commonly in cancer, embryonic stem cells, human embryos, and in various trisomic diseases. Aneuploidies frequently affect only a subset of cells in a sample; this is known as \"mosaic\" aneuploidy. A cell that harbours an aneuploidy exhibits disrupted gene expression patterns which can alter its behaviour. However, detection of aneuploidies using conventional single-cell DNA-sequencing protocols is slow and expensive. METHODS: We have developed a method that uses chromosome-wide expression imbalances to identify aneuploidies from single-cell RNA-seq data. The method provides quantitative aneuploidy calls, and is integrated into an R software package available on GitHub and as an Additional file of this manuscript. RESULTS: We validate our approach using data with known copy number, identifying the vast majority of aneuploidies with a low rate of false discovery. We show further support for the method's efficacy by exploiting allele-specific gene expression levels, and differential expression analyses. CONCLUSIONS: The method is quick and easy to apply, straightforward to interpret, and represents a substantial cost saving compared to single-cell genome sequencing techniques. However, the method is less well suited to data where gene expression is highly variable. The results obtained from the method can be used to investigate the consequences of aneuploidy itself, or to exclude aneuploidy-affected expression values from conventional scRNA-seq data analysis.\nJonny Griffiths",

The introduction of the CNC machines has ensured that the doctors are now able to provide with reliable services. When we look at medical machining, we are actually speaking about the machines that are actually used in carrying out surgery The medical equipment are also considered to be some of the medical machines.\nThese machines have also ensured that they have reduced the amount of work that is being done by a single doctor. The introduction of the new and efficient machines has also led to an improvement in the lives of people. Individuals who are in critical conditions can now be saved through the services that are provided by the introduction in the new medical machines. The importance of the growth in the medical machines is that they have provided people with an ability to lead healthier and longer lives. The public has actually become fully dependent on the kind of services that are provided in the medical institutions.\nThis actually shows that it is very important to ensure that there is an improvement on the medical devices. Luckily, the companies that are committed to provide with the CNC machining services have an ability to meet the high demand when it comes to the medical machines. The establishment of a number of companies that are actually committed in the manufacture of the medical machines has actually benefitted both the private and the public hospitals and clinics since they are now able to have access to these machines at a very low price. In the process, since each company would love to be in business with the hospitals and the clinics, they are forced to sell the machines, providing their clients with discounts.\nThe patients can enjoy the services that are provided in hospitals without fear since the machines are less likely to interfere with their well-being. There are a number of special materials that are actually used to ensure that the functionality of the machines will not be affected while the machines are working. Super conducting magnets, for example, are inserted in the MRIs to ensure that they are fully functional. This works to ensure that the machine is fully efficient and that it is able to serve its purpose in the right way.\nSome of the machines are also manufactured using polyurethanes. Some of them are also made in such a way that they are able to determine the changes in pressure. The safety of the lives of the patients is increased using these devices. The companies that make these equipment should actually be appreciated because making such machines is not considered to be a very easy task.\nLearning The \u201cSecrets\u201d of Devices\nThe Essentials of Labeling \u2013 101",

        "raw_content": "Asian D-Cinema Summit 2005, Singapore\u2014Jun 16, 2005\nSingapore\u2019s Digital Exchange Offers Commercial Services for Digital Processing, Distribution and Management of Digital Content\nCommercial Services A Reality Through Government - Industry Collaboration\nContent owners can now use Singapore to localise their digital content and re-distribute it worldwide. This is a result of the joint government-industry collaboration in the form of the Cross Continent Digital Content Transmission or CCTx. Today, the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore revealed this significant milestone at this year's Asian D-Cinema Summit, held in conjunction with the Infocomm Media Business Exchange.\nCCTx is a pilot driven by government and industry players to develop a viable business model for digital delivery across continents from the United States to Asia. The earlier test of transmitting 3 movie trailers already established a secure, reliable and cost-effective digital delivery work flow from the United States to Singapore.\nAt today's Asian D-Cinema Summit, the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore and Singapore infocomm & Technologies Federation Digital Media Chapter or SiTF DMC together with industry players updated on the progress of CCTx. In addition to distribution, the CCTx latest results demonstrated Singapore's ability to receive digital content from the United States, process it in Singapore and re-distribute it to other markets such as the United States and Thailand.\n\"CCTx offers a secure and reliable working model for digital content delivery. Singapore, as a digital exchange, is able to offer the necessary services and capabilities to receive content from anywhere in the world, process and package it and deliver it across continents, globally. The Singapore government and industry players are proud to collaborate and act as a catalyst in the digital cinema space,\" said Mr Thomas Lim, Director for Games and Entertainment, Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore.\nThe cross continent digital delivery successfully deployed by the CCTx project witnessed the distribution of an 11-minute test movie called the \"Standard Evaluation Material\" (StEM) file produced by The American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) and Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCIdeveloped by Digital Cinema Initiatives LLC). Previously tTransmitted from GlobeCast in Culver City, California the Digital Cinema Lab in Entertainment Technology Centre at University of Southern CaliforniaETC-USC, Los Angeles to 1-Net, a data exchange in Singapore, the original StEM narration was localised with Chinese subtitles and Mandarin voiceover. The process was made possible by local industry partners, Mega Films and post-production company, VHQ.\nThe localised content was then re-distributed digitally to the United States and Thailand via satellite through GlobeCast. In the United States, GlobeCast worked with Microspace to deliver the localised StEM to the Digital Cinema Laboratory at ETC-USC. In Bangkok, Thailand, GlobeCast worked with Asia.Net to deliver the localised StEM to SFX Cinema at Central Plaza, a cinema chain of SF Cinema City cinema. The localised StEM was also transmitted directly via fiber by Starhub to two a cinema halls in Singapore at, Eng Wah Suntec and Cathay Cineplex Orchard.The 170GB StEM file with a total duration of 12 minutes was successfully screened. This display of a multi-distribution network establishes Singapore's capabilities as a global distribution hub for digital content.\nFollowing the progress from the initial phase of the CCTx, the transmission to a regional city signals another step closer for Singapore in the distribution of digital movies. \"The digital retransmission of the localised StEM to the studios and the region by the CCTx project members allows the industry to identify and resolve process and business issues critical to commercial adoption of a worldwide digital distribution system for digital movies,\" said Mr Mock Pak Lum, Chairman of SiTF DMC.\n\"ETC-USC is committed to helping establish a digital cinema system that can thrive worldwide,\" said Charles S. Swartz, CEO/Executive Director of the Entertainment Technology Center at USC (ETC-USC). \"The CCTx members' repackaging and re-transmission of StEM back to the States will take the industry one step closer to that goal.\"\nThe CCTx also engages the latest commercially available digital technologies in the market, the MPEG 2 - MXF format. Moving forward, it will embrace the DCI recommended standard, the universal JPEG2000 platform, once it's commercially available.\nIn strengthening Singapore's position as a Digital Exchange, international digital media players are already partnering with local companies to tap on the Digital Exchange business proposition. Technicolor Network Services is already partnering with SingTel to ride on Singapore's infrastructure to digitally distribute content to the rest of Asia. As part of the commercial offerings, the set-up of a local digital cinema encoding facility by Mega Media, also paves the way for Singapore to offer content owners and advertisers cost-effective solution for processing and management of content.\n\"The processing of the digital content, particularly in the area of localisation, furthers positions Singapore's another step closer in becoming a Digital Cinema Exchange aspirations,\" said Mr Thomas Lim, Director for Games and Entertainment, Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore. The IDA's Digital Cinema initiative isefforts are part of the its Digital Exchange (DX) programme to position Singapore as the global distribution hub and trading centre for the processing, management and distribution of digital content such as, movies for studios and content conglomerates. The DX initiative programme aims to extend Singapore's hub status into the digital realm to distribute, processing and management of content through Singapore to the Asian markets.\nSingapore as Ideal Location for Processing, Management and Distribution of Digital Content\nSingapore is well-placed as the regional digital distribution hub for content leveraging on its cutting-edge infocomms infrastructure, well-established status as a business hub, competitive regulatory policies, strong IP rights protection and ready availability of skilled manpower.\nSingapore already has over 1 million square feet of advanced data centre space. It is one of the most connected cities in Asia with more than 16 Gbps of extensive and direct Internet connectivity to over 20 countries. This comprises 6 Gbps to the United States and over 8 Gbps to Asian cities such as Australia, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Vietnam. In addition, Singapore's direct Internet connectivity to major ASEAN countries is at least 100 Mbps per country. Singapore's network infrastructure is also particularly well-suited for digital delivery of data.\nSingapore is ranked first in the World for Networked Readiness Index 2004 - 2005 in World Economic Forum's latest Global Information Technology Report. In January 2005, Singapore was ranked as one of the Top Seven Intelligent Communities in the World by Intelligent Communities Forum (ICF) for its Digital Exchange vision, excellent infocomm infrastructure and global connectivity.\nAbout Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore: The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) is committed to growing Singapore into a dynamic global infocomm hub. IDA uses an integrated approach to developing infocommunications in Singapore. This involves nurturing a competitive telecoms market as well as a conducive business environment with programmes and schemes for both local and international companies.

This is second chance for the congress to make the government in the state. Previously in Uttrakhand, Congress won against the BJP in the court\u2019s hearing.\nOn 14th December 2015 under the 10th schedule, the speaker, Nabam Rebia disqualified the 14 of the 30 rebel MLAs for voluntarily leaving the party by publicly identifying themselves with the opposition. The rebels also asked the governor of the Arunachal Pradesh to direct the then CM of Arunachal Pradesh Nabam Tuki to seek a trust vote in the assembly.\nThe high court of Gauhati high court set the rebels aside on 30th March on the ground that the speaker had exercised his powers under the 10th schedule.

China has plans to build a space station and make a possible lunar landing.\nBEIJING \u2014 Chinese celebrated their nation\u2019s first spacewalk Saturday, gathering at outdoor TV screens to cheer live video of the milestone for a program that has ambitions of building a space station and challenging the U.S. and Russia in space exploration.\nStoking national pride one month after the close of the Beijing Olympics, state television\u2019s coverage reflected much of the glory onto President and Communist Party leader Hu Jintao, who was present at Thursday\u2019s launch and watched the spacewalk at Beijing\u2019s ground control center.\n\u201cYour success represents a new breakthrough in our manned space program,\u201d Hu told the astronauts in a scripted exchange that also was broadcast live.\n\u201cThe motherland and the people thank you,\u201d said Hu, who is chairman of the powerful Communist Party and government military committees that oversee the space program.\nThe spacewalk was mainly aimed at testing China\u2019s mastery of the technology. Mission commander Zhai Zhigang\u2019s sole task was to retrieve a rack attached to the outside of the orbital module containing an experiment involving solid lubricants.\nTethered to handles attached to the Shenzhou 7 ship\u2019s orbital module, Zhai remained outside for about 13 minutes before climbing back inside through the open hatch.\n\u201cGreetings to all the people of the nation and all the people of the world,\u201d Zhai said into an external camera as he floated halfway out of the open hatch.\nFellow astronaut Liu Boming also emerged briefly from the capsule to hand Zhai a Chinese flag. The third crew member, Jing Haipeng, monitored the ship from inside the re-entry module.\nAfter the spacewalk, the astronauts released an 88-pound satellite to circle the orbiter and send back images to mission control.\nThe spacewalk was an opening step for China\u2019s plan to assemble a space station from two Shenzhou orbital modules, the next major goal of the manned space program. China also is pursuing lunar exploration and may attempt to land a man on the moon in the next decade \u2014 possibly ahead of NASA\u2019s 2020 target date for returning to the moon.",

        "raw_content": "PUFFS OR HUFFS IN N.Y.\n\"No Smoking\" signs began going up in offices, restaurants and other public places Wednesday as a new city ordinance that strictly limits where smokers can puff went into effect.\nThe ordinance bans or restricts smoking in workplaces, restaurants, hotels, theaters, large stores and taxicabs.\nRestaurants with more than 50 seats must ban smoking at more than half their tables. Businesses with more than 15 employees must provide non-smoking work areas one at least 8 feet from a smoker.Some companies, calling that arrangement too difficult to arrange or enforce, have banned smoking except in private offices.\n\"If everyone is understanding, the month of April will be a time for experimentation,\" said Cynthia R. Darrison, head of the Restaurant League of New York. \"But this is New York. You could have fistfights in restaurants.\"\nOfficials conceded that it will take months to sort out how exactly the law will be enforced. The city said it will allow a two-month grace period before issuing fines of up to $500.\n\"You're talking about a complex social change in a city of 8 million people,\" said Dr. Stephen Joseph, the city health commissioner.",

America's top diplomat said the U.S. is ready to help increase its ties with Africa, but nations across the continent need to take stronger steps to ensure security and democracy for its people.\nADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia \u2014 America's top diplomat said Saturday the U.S. is ready to help increase its ties with Africa, but nations across the continent need to take stronger steps to ensure security and democracy for its people.\nIn an Africa policy address to members of the Addis Ababa diplomatic corps and the Young Africa leader network, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry highlighted crises in Nigeria, South Sudan, Somalia and the Central African Republic and urged Africans to demand stability and financial development.\nHe called for an expansion of American investment in Africa and noted that U.S. companies IBM, Microsoft and Google already have spent more than $100 million on projects across the continent.\n\"So this is clearly a moment of opportunity for all Africans,\" Kerry told about 100 Ethiopians at an environmentally-friendly auditorium on a mountaintop. \"It is also a moment of decision.\"\nThe Obama administration has sought to expand U.S. private investments in Africa, and last year financed about $1 billion to support American businesses across the continent, including an estimated $650 million in sub-Saharan Africa.\nElizabeth Littlefield, president and CEO of the U.S. Overseas Private Investment Corp., described Africa as the world's next front for development, largely in part because of a huge rise in the continent's middle class. She said the number of African households with disposable income will double over the next decade.\nAfrica has the natural resources, capacity and the know-how for economic development, Kerry said, adding that the U.S. is the continent's \"natural partner.\"\nHe said that over the next three years, 37 of the 54 African nations will hold national elections with millions of voters going to the polls. And he called on Africans to combat the political corruption that the African Union says has cost the people of Africa tens of billions of dollars.\n\"That money could build new schools and hospitals, new roads and bridges, new pipes and power lines. That's why it's a responsibility for citizens in Africa and in all nations to demand that public money is providing services for all, not lining the pockets of a few,\" Kerry told the gathering.\nCombating corruption, he said, \"lifts more than a government's balance sheet.\"\nBut Kerry warned that \"a new Africa\" cannot emerge with becoming \"a more secure Africa.\"\n\"In too many parts of the continent, a lack of security, the threat of violence, or all-out war prevent even the first shoots of prosperity from emerging. The burdens of past divisions might never be completely eliminated but they must never be allowed to bury the future,\" he said.\nKerry also warned of the dangers climate change, noting that according to a recent U.N. report parts of Mombasa, Dakar, Monrovia and dozens of coast African cities could be under water by the middle of the century.\n\"Africa has 60 percent of the world's arable land. That is a tremendous opportunity for the future, not just to feed Africa's people, but to feed the world,\" he said. But because of climate change and global warming, yields from rain-fed agriculture in parts of Africa could decline by half.\n\"When 97 percent of scientists agree that the climate is changing, that it is happening faster they even predicted, and that humans are the significant cause, let me tell you something, we need to listen. We need to act,\" he said.",

Today, she shared a few stills from the song.\nSonakshi Sinha took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and posted the pictures alongside the caption, \u201cHonoured and looking forward to recreating the iconic #Mungda with @ajaydevgn. My second song of lovely Helen aunty this year, hope she loves it too!!! Watch out for #TotalDhamaal in cinemas on 7th Dec.! \u201c\nIn the pictures, we can see Sonakshi wearing a golden colored shimmery outfit, while Ajay Devgn is looking dashing in tees and denim paired with a leather jacket.\nPreviously, talking about roping in Sonakshi for the special song, film\u2019s director Indra Kumar had said in a recent interview, \u201cHelenji, is a legend, but I thought Sonakshi is the right girl for it. We had saved this song for the end of the shoot. We begin filming on August 26 and it will go on for four days. We have roped in a new music director duo, Gaurav-Roshan, to recreate the song which will be choreographed by Adil Shaikh. The old song was a big hit so it\u2019s a huge responsibility on Sonakshi\u2019s shoulders and mine too. We have picked up an iconic song now we have to deliver.\u201d\nWe are looking forward to this song as we are eager to watch Ajay Devgn match steps with Sonakshi in this reprised version.\n\u2018Total Dhamaal\u2019 is a sequel of \u2018Double Dhamaal\u2018 and stars Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, and Esha Gupta along with the original cast Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi and Javed Jaffrey.

Check out this story on detroitnews.com: http://detne.ws/2hqsjus\nLions rookie wide receiver Kenny Golliday had seven catches for 102 yards and two touchdowns before being sidelined with a hamstring injury.(Photo11: Daniel Mears, Detroit News)\nAllen Park \u2014 Kenny Golladay doesn\u2019t know if he\u2019ll get the green light to return to game action this Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. But after being sidelined five games by an injured hamstring, the Lions rookie receiver is eager to resume his season.\n\u201cMan, it\u2019s crazy,\u201d he said. \u201cAt the same time, I have to patient with it. An injury like this, it can linger a little bit. I\u2019m excited whenever the time does come.\u201d\nAfter a brief setback last week, Golladay practiced all three days this week. After Friday\u2019s session, he said he\u2019s feeling pretty good and is hopeful he\u2019ll be able to contribute to Detroit\u2019s recently surging passing game.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to be amazing,\u201d he said. \u201cIf everyone is clicking, when I come in, I can\u2019t slack. I have to come in and not look like I\u2019ve lost a step.\u201d\nMore: \u200bLions vs. Browns preview: No time for a letdown\nGolladay caught seven passes for 102 yards and two touchdowns in the first three games of the year. The 6-foot-4 receiver was a popular red-zone target to start the year, and given the Lions\u2019 recent struggles inside the 20, could provide a welcomed boost in that area.\nNot that he views himself as any kind of savior.\n\u201cWho knows? It\u2019s tough,\u201d he said. \u201cOf course I don\u2019t feel like we weren\u2019t doing anything because of me. I would never say anything like that.\u201d\nGolladay said he\u2019s being staying mentally sharp in the meetings and on the sidelines as he readies for his return and he\u2019s never gotten down during the healing process, crediting his attitude, as well as the veterans in his room, for keeping his spirits up.\n\u201cI\u2019m not the type of person to get down on myself,\u201d Golladay said. \u201cThings like this do happen.

        "raw_content": "Teen claims he was 'bullied into drug dealing' to pay for windscreen smashed with football\nThe judge rejected Dichrije Elliej's claims about smashing a windscreen but spared him jail\nA teenager who was playing football in the street was bullied into drug dealing after he smashed the window of a gang leader's car.\nDichrije Elliej claims he was forced to hide almost \u00a31,000 worth of heroin and crack cocaine up his backside and put on a train from Paddington to Exeter.\nHe was caught after police raided the flat of a vulnerable woman which had been taken over by a drugs gang in an operation known as cuckooing.\nElliej was 17 at the time, had no previous involvement with gangs and had been a well thought of schoolboy who has just started a college course in business studies.\nA Judge at Exeter Crown Court rejected his story of the broken windscreen but spared him an immediate prison sentence because he accepted he had been put under pressure to make the trip to Exeter.\nElliej, now aged 18, from East London, admitted possession of heroin and crack cocaine with intent to supply and personal possession of cannabis and was jailed for 18 months, suspended for two years, and ordered to do 150 hours unpaid community work and 20 days rehabilitation activities.\nPolice seize \u00a317k worth of cannabis in major drug raids\nJudge Graham Cottle told him: \"I don't believe your story about the football and the windscreen but I accept you got involved in something in which you were totally out of your depth at a time when you were just 17.\n\"You are a young man who had a good schooling and are now at college on a business studies course. I am told you want to go into the fashion industry.\n\"You have put all that at serious risk by doing what you did. You were clearly involved in a fairly sophisticated operation.\n\"You were just 17 at the time and you made a terrible mistake. Young people make mistakes. The question is whether you should spend the rest of your life paying for it or whether I should give you a chance. I have decided I am going to do so.\"\nMr Brian Fitzherbert, prosecuting, said Elliej was arrested in March in Market Street, Exeter, at a home of a vulnerable woman who was seen selling drugs in the street outside.\nHe told officers she was frightened of the men inside and Elliej was arrested and later found to have 92 wraps of heroin and four of crack hidden inside his body with a total street value of \u00a3960.\nPopular Exmouth pub manager stole \u00a33,000 from the till\nHe made no comment in interview but submitted a basis of plea which said: \"I was playing football in the street and accidentally smashed a car windscreen. A few days later I was walking home and a man approached me and said I owed him money for the windscreen.\n\"I said I did not have any and the man said I could repay the debt by taking a package to Exeter. There were threats to me and my family.\"\nMiss Kelly Scrivener, defending, said Elliej has no previous convictions, is intelligent and has just started a college course. He now has more support because he has moved back in with his father.\nShe said one of the other men arrested at the same time, Reece Peart, is far older and more heavily convicted and played a more senior role in the operation. He has since been jailed for three years and nine months.\nShe asked the judge to take account of a probation report which described Elliej as a decent young man whose youth and vulnerability had been exploited.\nShe said: \"Cuckooing is an expression used by the police to describe the use of a vulnerable person's premises. Similarly, young men have pressure put upon them to get involved. This is a case of a young man who is the sort of young person who drug dealers prey upon.\"",

        "raw_content": "Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Karmapa\nThaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa leading the Kagyu Monlam\nThaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa is the head of the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He is the spiritual leader of around 900 monasteries, institutions and centers in 68 countries around the world.\nKarmapa regularly visits Diamond Way Buddhist centers around the world. He has often given teachings and empowerments at the Europe Center in Germany, the main international meeting point for Diamond Way Buddhists. Lama Ole Nydahl describes Karmapa as being the guarantor for the authenticity of our Karma Kagyu lineage.\nKarmapa was born in Lhasa in May 1983 and was given the name Tenzin Kyentse by his parents. His father is the third Mipham Rinpoche, an important lama of the Nyingma tradition. His mother, Dechen Wangmo, comes from a noble Tibetan family, which traces its roots back to the fabled King Ling Gesar. The family lived in the Bharkhor, a famous area in the center of the Tibetan capital, where pilgrims and locals make devotional circumambulations of the Jokhang Temple. As a small child, Tenzin Khyentse repeatedly stated that he was the Karmapa. At this time, many people were searching for the reincarnation of the 16th Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje.\nThe 17th Karmapa (left) with his father Mipham Rinpoche, his mother Dechen Wangmo, and his brother S\u00f6nam Tsemo Rinpoche\nIn 1986, based on the instructions of the 16th Karmapa, his own dreams, as well as information and a photo of the young Karmapa given to him by a visitor who had just been to Lhasa, Chobgye Trichen Rinpoche, a lineage holder and highly respected master of the Sakya tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, told Shamar Rinpoche about the child. As the second highest lama of the Karma Kagyu lineage, Shamar Rinpoche is, according to tradition, responsible for finding the Karmapa. Upon receiving this information he asked Lop\u00f6n Tsechu Rinpoche, a close confidante of the 16th Karmapa, to visit the boy in Lhasa on his behalf. Lop\u00f6n Tsechu Rinpoche returned with detailed information about the young Tenzin Khyentse and his family and reported that the boy had recognized him at their first meeting. Later, high lamas of the Karma Kagyu lineage went to Tibet to meet the young Karmapa and his family, who had to keep his identity secret.\nIn early 1991, after doing a meditation retreat, evaluating further information, and conducting traditional tests, Shamar Rinpoche publicly announced during an inauguration of a monastery in Nepal that the new Karmapa lived in Tibet and was to be named Thaye Dorje, meaning \u201cUnlimited Unchanging Buddha Activity\u201d.\nIn 1994, assisted by Western students, the young Karmapa and his parents fled Tibet and went to India. In the same year, Shamar Rinpoche enthroned him at the Karmapa International Buddhist Institute (KIBI) in New Delhi. Many visitors from around the world attended the ceremony.\nThe 17th Karmapa with Shamar Rinpoche in KIBI, 1994\nUnder the guidance of Shamar Rinpoche, Karmapa received a comprehensive education from Topga Rinpoche, Prof. Sempa Dorje, Khenpo Chodrak Rinpoche, the US-American professor of philosophy Harrison Pemberton, and many high lamas and scholars of Tibetan Buddhism.\nThe aged Chobgye Trichen Rinpoche, holder of the Norpa-Sakya tradition, who had first told Shamar Rinpoche about the boy in Tibet, traveled from his seat in Nepal to the Dhagpo Kagyu Ling monastery in France, which had been built by Gendun Rinpoche, in order to give Karmapa rare transmissions and empowerments over a period of several months.\nThe 17th Karmapa, Chobgye Trichen Rinpoche and Shamar Rinpoche\nIn the USA, Karmapa later met Luding Kenchen Rinpoche, the holder of the Sharpa Sakya tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, and received important transmissions that actually belonged to the Karma Kagyu tradition and had been held and protected by the Sakya school for several generations.\nLuding Kenchen Rinpoche, the 17th Karmapa, and Sakya Trizin Rinpoche\nThe high Nyingma and Sakya master Pewar Rinpoche gave Karmapa the complete transmission of the Dam Ngag Dzo, the biggest collection of empowerments of the eight most important schools of Tibetan Buddhism.\nThe 17th Karmapa and Pewar Rinpoche\nTeaching and traveling activities\nSince 1999, Karmapa has regularly travelled to South Asia as well as Europe, Russia and North America. During his first visit to Europe he was accompanied by Lop\u00f6n Tsechu Rinpoche. At the opening event in January 2000, Karmapa was welcomed in D\u00fcsseldorf by 6,000 students from the centers founded by Lama Ole Nydahl.\nThe 17th Karmapa in Dusseldorf in 2000\nThe 17th Karmapa has met many high religious and political officials around the world, including:\nH.H. Sakya Trizin, the highest lama of the Sakya lineage\nThe King of Butan, Jigme Wangchuk\nThe Hambo Lama Damba Ayusheeyev, head of the Buryat Buddhists of Russia\nDilgo Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche, high lama of the Nyingma lineage and incarnation of H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche\nDrikung Chetsang Rinpoche, head of the Drikung Kagyu lineage\nFormer Indian Minister of Information Shri S. Jaipal Reddy\nThe 17th Karmapa with, from top left: the King of Bhutan Jigme Wangchuk, Drikung Chetsang Rinpoche, Hambo Lama Damba Ayusheeyev, Dilgo Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche\nIn India, Karmapa is a regular guest of honour and teacher at events of the so called Neo Buddhists, a community of today about 20 million people, which emerged from the emancipation movement of the former \u201cUntouchables\u201d, who hold the Karmapa in very high esteem.\nThe 17th Karmapa in India\nIn Bodh Gaya, North India\u2019s most important place of pilgrimage, Karmapa regularly leads the annual prayers of the Kagyu Monlam with thousands of participants from throughout the Himalayas.\nThe 17th Karmapa leading ceremonies at the Kagyu Monlam in Bodh Gaya\nOn the basis of Buddhist principles, Karmapa follows his vision of peace based on Inner Wealth, a limitless source of compassion and wisdom. He also supports charitable projects like the \u201cKarmapa Healthcare Project\u201d which sends volunteer Western doctors to remote areas of the Himalayas to treat monks and nuns and to train aspiring medical professionals.\nToday the Karmapa lives in New Delhi, India. He is the chief patron of the Karmapa International Buddhist Society (KIBS), where students from East and West can achieve a Bachelor of Arts in Buddhist Studies at the Karmapa International Buddhist Institute.\nThe Karmapa International Buddhist Institute in New Delhi\nIn 2012, Karmapa named Lama Jigme Rinpoche his general secretary. Lama Jigme Rinpoche received his education from the 16th Karmapa, who in the 1970s made him his representative in Europe. Jigme Rinpoche has authored numerous publications and is a highly esteemed teacher and a spiritual advisor to Diamond Way Buddhism. He lives in Dhagpo Kagyu Ling in southern France.\nThe 17th Karmapa and Lama Jigme Rinpoche\nIn June 2014 Karmapa traveled to Germany to return the body of his main teacher, Shamar Rinpoche, who had unexpectedly passed away in Renchen Ulm, to Asia. Shamar Rinpoche\u2019s body was cremated in Kathmandu. The ceremony was led by Karmapa and attended by many Tibetan and Bhutanese Buddhist masters. The 17th Karmapa is now responsible for finding the reincarnation, the 15th Shamarpa, and passing on the Karma Kagyu transmissions to him.\nThe 14th Shamar Rinpoche with the 17th Karmapa",

Nutritionists have long advocated increased consumption of fruits and vegetables as a way to keep weight under control. The new study, however, finds that starchy vegetables, while certainly healthful, are less likely to help in weight loss and actually contributed to weight gain. Researchers analyzed data collected from national survey questionnaires submitted by 133,468 American adults over 24 years. Starchy vegetables like peas and corn were associated with long-term weight gain, while fruits and non-starchy vegetables were associated with weight loss.\nMonica L.

I was quite shocked actually. It was a shame she left.\n\"She went on about this wardrobe malfunction but I googled it and couldn't see it on YouTube. Everyone had a look! The only reason she left is because she stumbled. So regardless of how much money you're being paid, Cheggars is in!\"\nMatt Frost/ITV/Rex Features\nOn the physical demands of the show, he said: \"I've never done any exercise before DOI ever. I'm absolutely shattered. I've done my ribs in, I can't breathe, my back hurts! Last week I had a bug and was told to get off the ice.\n\"This week there's a new save-me-skate, a new routine, a team routine and an opening routine - I'm double the age of everyone else and I'm doing twice as much work! I'm going to have a coronary at this rate. I'm going to die!\"\nHaving lost two stone, he said: \"I went to the gym once before the show started, but I just stood next to fat people trying to look thin. On Sunday we've got Olly Murs coming on the show and my waist size has come down three inches. I can probably fit into Olly Murs's trousers. I'm really chuffed.\"\nAstounded he's still in the reality show, he said: \"Each week I'm at the bottom of the leader board. People who would want to vote for me don't know what the phone is! They think a mobile's a zimmer frame. I have the pink pound after me.\"\nTalking about whether he'd strip off on ice - similar to his stint on 2000's Naked Jungle which saw him present a show nude on Channel 5 - he said: \"I promised my mum I'd never take my clothes off again on tele. I will not be doing that, thank you!\n\"I'm still surprised people remember it. There's me thinking no-one will watch that rubbish. How wrong was I? I wish I'd never done it.\"\nWorking again with Ricky Gervais on a one-off special of Life's Too Short, he said: \"I can't tell you, I'm so chuffed. I can't tell you how fantastic that is. I've got the best script writer in the world.\n\"That's a mega star phoning up Cheggars going, 'I've written something for you'. It's a one-hour special with Val Kilmer - and there's me, Les Dennis, Shaun Williamson and Warwick Davis. He calls us the Holy Trinity!\n\"He's brilliant. He doesn't stop laughing and he ruins your takes because he giggles throughout them. He hasn't played any tricks on us yet, but we're all waiting.\"\nKeith admitted he was confused when Ricky first called him up. He said: \"I have to admit the first time he ever phoned me up I thought it was impressionist Jon Culshaw. I thought it was a spoof!\"\nKeith is working with www.pchprizes.co.uk, one of the UK's largest free prize draw websites who have given away over \u00c2\u00a3400,000 since launching back in September 2011.

        "raw_content": "Hands on with Chevy\u2019s $25,000 Spark EV\nBy\tAmir Iliaifar\t@DigitalAmir \u2014 Posted on\tNovember 29, 2012 11:00AM PST 11.29.12 - 11:00AM PST\nThe biggest unveiling at the 2012 LA Auto Show just so happened to center around one of the smallest vehicles on display. After unveiling the Spark EV on Wednesday, General Motors wasted no time showing off its diminutive new electric vehicle, which will sell for under $25,000 with tax credits. It sports an electric motor capable of producing 130 horsepower and a hefty 400 pound-feet of torque, and draws power from a 20-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. An optional SAE Combo DC Fast Charge system will charge the battery to 80 percent capacity in a very manageable 20 minutes. While I didn\u2019t have a chance to actually take the Spark EV for a spin around the showfloor, I was able to walk around, crawl inside, and gather some first impressions of this pint-sized EV.\nEven though it\u2019s small in stature, the Spark EV has a big personality. Some subtle differences do exist between the battery-powered spark and its gas-powered counterpart, but other than the absence of a tailpipe, the charging port located near the driver-side door, and some EV badging in the rear, the naked eye will have trouble distinguishing between the two. Of course, not everyone wants a car as ostentatious as the Nissan Leaf, so the Spark\u2019s electric ambiguity may bode well.\nLikewise, the Spark EV\u2019s interior closely resembles what you would find in the standard gasoline model, only Chevy has added another 7-inch LCD display, giving the car two: one behind the steering wheel, and another in the center console. The Spark EV on the showfloor wasn\u2019t able to turn on fully, so I didn\u2019t get a chance to mess around with the MyLink infotainment system or experience Siri integration. However, when it comes to Siri functionality, I can\u2019t see there being much of a difference (if any) from what I experienced during my hands-on time with the system in the upcoming Chevrolet Sonic.\nChevy hasn\u2019t released range figures for the Spark EV yet, but the LCD screen behind the wheel gave up an interesting clue when I opened the door. It indicated that the battery was fully charged, and hinted at a total driving range of 74 miles.\nLike other all-electric vehicles, and even hybrids, the Spark EV definitely gives off that electrified vibe. The cockpit resembles a spaceship with a mixture of hard-angled geometric shapes, swooping panels, and circular vents. We can only imagine that look will be further compounded once the dual LCD screens are illuminated and full of data.\nLess surprising, however, was the feeling of claustrophobia I felt while inside the Spark EV. Standing at 5 feet, 8 inches, I\u2019m far from the tallest driver, but even I felt cramped and confined. The same feeling translated to the back seats. While the Spark EV is a small commuter car, those taller than I may find the Spark EV uncomfortable on anything longer than a quick jaunt to work. On a positive note, there is a small molded plastic cup holder and what looks like a place to store a mobile phone located between the rear seats. Cargo space is also extremely restricted, decreasing the Spark EVs utility. Usually battery placement is to blame for this, but Chevy has wisely chosen to place it below the rear seats and directly over the rear axle, in a single, sealed enclosure.\nOverall, the Spark certainly has spunk, though I\u2019ll have to reserve full judgement until I get some driving time. Minor gripes aside, it seems like it has the potential to attract customers with its edgy, tech-driven interior and fossil-fuel-forsaking powertrain. It will be interesting to see how well the vehicle does given the recent lull in pure EV sales, but with a $25,000 price point (including tax credits) and GM\u2019s purported \u201cbest in class EV range,\u201d it wouldn\u2019t come as a surprise for the Spark to shock us all and actually sell well. Here\u2019s hoping its availability quickly spreads beyond its initial limited market release of California, Oregon, Canada, and South Korea.\nAAA report: Freezing temps slash electric vehicle range almost in half\nTank!

        "raw_content": "Apple reveals healthy iPhone sales as Cook hints at more handset variations\nBy\tTrevor Mogg\t\u2014 Posted on\tMay 1, 2018 6:55PM PST 05.1.18 - 6:55PM PST\nApple reported its \u201cbest March quarter ever\u201d on Tuesday, with CEO Tim Cook declaring that customers chose the iPhone X \u201cmore than any other iPhone each week\u201d across the three months.\nThe iPhone X launched in November 2017 and \u2014 starting at $1,000 and topping out at $1,150 \u2014 it\u2019s Apple\u2019s most expensive handset ever. Recent news reports suggested there had been weak demand for the pricey handset, but the company said this was the first cycle that its top-of-the-line had also been its most popular, outselling the iPhone 8, 7, 6S, and SE.\nIn a conference call with investors, Cook made no direct comment about recent rumors regarding variations on the iPhone X, but did say that Apple is \u201cgoing to continue to provide different iPhones for folks to meet their needs,\u201d which some may take as a hint that new designs are on the way.\nAnnouncing sales figures for the three-month period ending March 31, Apple said it sold 52.2 million handsets, up from 50.7 million a year ago, though down from 77.3 million during the previous quarter, which includes the busy holiday period. It also sold more iPads year on year \u2014 9.1 million compared to 8.9 million during the same period in 2017. But again, this was down from 13.1 million on the previous quarter.\nAt 4.1 million units, sales of its Mac computers were down slightly, from 4.2 million units on a year ago, and down from 5.1 million units compared to the last quarter.\nThe company\u2019s Other Products category saw notable year-on-year growth, with revenue reaching $3.9 billion, up from $2.9 billion for the same period last year. This segment includes the Apple Watch, AirPods, Apple TV, as well as the recently released HomePod smart speaker. However, compared to the last quarter, revenue for the category fell more than $1 billion, from $5.5 billion.\nApple doesn\u2019t break down its Other Products category, so it\u2019s hard to know how its new smart speaker is doing. Recent reports suggested sales have been slow, with the $349 price tag prohibitive for many. However, Cook was happy to point out that sales of wearable devices jumped nearly 50 percent on a year earlier, attributable at least in part to the launch of the first cellular Apple Watch toward the end of 2017.\nThe hardware sales, together with almost $10 billion worth of services, translated into revenue of $61.1 billion, and $13.8 billion profit, in line with Apple\u2019s own revenue guidance. That\u2019s up from $52.9 billion a year ago, though down from $88.3 billion on the last quarter. The latest figures were boosted by growth in all of its geographical segments, most notably in China and Japan, which saw growth of 20 percent.\nUrban dwellers will like the sound of these noise-canceling windows",

        "title": "Apartments - Right to Peaceful Accessible Living - Disabled World",
        "raw_content": ":: Apartments - Right to Peaceful Accessible Living\nSynopsis : Rights of people with disabilities seniors and tenants when living with a noisy neighbors from hell situation.\nHousing in America is an interesting life often times simply because there are millions of people in this nation. Not everyone can afford to live in a home of their own, meaning many of us live in apartments and pay rent. For those of us who do live in apartments, finding one with the accommodations we need as people who experience forms of disabilities may be just one of the challenges we face. Among the additional challenges we must deal with are loud neighbors, inadequate numbers of disability parking spaces, and awareness of the very laws and programs in place for us as people with disabilities.\nIn the apartment this writer currently resides in, one of the neighbors out of the entire building has been causing quite a ruckus. On three different occasions over a period of six weeks, the neighbors upstairs have had truly wild screaming matches that found them yelling at each other at the top of their lungs, not only in their apartment - but down the hall, down the stairs, out into the parking lot and then down the block. The rest of the people in the building are easy enough to get along with; what are the people with disabilities, non-disabled persons, and seniors in the building to do\nThe manager has been approached more than once about the loud tenants, who play their stereo loud enough to vibrate the walls at all hours as well. Seemingly unaware or unconcerned about their fellow tenants, these annoying neighbors appear to be lost in their own little world, all while the manager seems to desire nothing more than avoidance of the situation. It took a call to the police department to quiet them down, after more than one tenant left the building.\nPeople with disabilities, people who do not experience any form of disability at all, and seniors all need sleep. One tenant who is disturbing an entire population of people in an apartment building simply must not be allowed to disturb the rest of the building for their own lifestyle, which made this writer wonder if apartment tenants have a right to live in peace. Every city has a law related to disturbing the peace, yet enforcement of this law should not be something the police have to deal with, managers of apartments should.\nAdequate Disability Parking\nAnother issue with apartment complexes is often times the number of disability parking places. At the building this writer lives in this is most certainly true, to the point where one person became upset over the one spot in the main lot at the building after discovering that there are indeed multiple people with disabilities living here. There is one other spot on the street, but no others that I am aware of. In a building of a few dozen residents, this is simply unacceptable. America's largest minority population is People with Disabilities, and there are Seniors to think of as well as people with temporary disabilities.\nAllocation of the number of disability parking spaces must be determined in accordance with the percentage of Americans with Disabilities. We represent approximately fifteen percent of the population, therefore the number of disability parking spaces in any given apartment complex parking lot must be equal to or greater than fifteen percent at least. Remember there are seniors and people with temporary disabilities to consider as well, so the number of spaces should probably be around twenty-five percent. The overall population in America continues to age.\nFair Housing and People with Disabilities\nThe Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing based upon disability, race, religion, color, familial status, and national origin. The Act covers private housing, housing that receives Federal financial assistance, as well as State and local government housing. According to the Fair Housing Act, it is unlawful to discriminate in any aspect of renting or selling housing, or to deny housing to a person who is buying or renting based upon a form of disability a person experiences.\nThe Fair Housing Act requires owners of housing to make reasonable exceptions to their operations and policies to give people with disabilities equal housing opportunities. As an example, a landlord who has a, 'no pets,' policy must grant an exception to their rule for a person who has a service animal. The Fair Housing Act also requires landlords to give tenants with disabilities reasonable access-related modifications to their living spaces as well as to spaces for common use. The Act also requires new multifamily housing with four or more units to be designed and built to allow access for people with disabilities, to include:\nAccessible common areas\nAdditional adaptable features within units\nDoors that are wide enough for wheelchairs\nKitchens and bathrooms that allow a person using a wheelchair to maneuver\nOne of the major issues with apartments in America is, of course, the fact that most of them are old and inaccessible. The Fair Housing Act doesn't do a whole lot for people with disabilities who are forced to live on meager incomes and choose among apartments that are not built to accommodate them. Doorways in the apartment this writer lives in would never allow a wheelchair into the bedroom or bathroom with any sense of ease, for example. There are no grab bars in the shower, the tub makes it inaccessible, and there are stairs to climb just to get into the hallway to the front door.\nAre there newer, more accessible building in America for people who experience forms of disabilities? Certainly! If you can afford to live in them, or find a vacancy. A newer building means higher rent, as well as more competition to simply get an apartment. For the millions upon millions of people who experience forms of disabilities in America, this challenge is simply too great. We are left with apartments that were built prior to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, despite several additional housing laws such as:\nTitle VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964: Title VI prohibits discrimination based upon a person's race, color, or nation origin in activities and programs that receive federal financial assistance.\nThe Architectural Barriers Act of 1968: The Architectural Barriers Act requires that buildings and facilities designed, constructed, altered, or leased with certain federal funds after September of 1969 must be accessible and usable by people with disabilities.\nSection 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973: Section 504 prohibits discrimination based on disability in any activity or program that receives federal financial assistance.\nSection 109 of Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974: Section 109 prohibits discrimination on the basis of a person's race, color, sex, national origin, or religion in activities and programs receiving financial assistance from HUD's, 'Community Development and Block Grant Program.'\nThe Age Discrimination Act of 1975: The Age Discrimination Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of a person's age in activities or programs that receive federal financial assistance.\nTitle II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990: Title II prohibits discrimination based on disability services, programs, and activities provided or made available by public entities. HUD enforces Title II in relation to state and local public housing, housing assistance, as well as housing referrals.\nExecutive Order 13217: Executive Order 13217 requires federal agencies to evaluate their programs and policies to determine if any of them may be revised or modified in order to improve the availability of community-based living arrangements for people with disabilities.\nAll of these laws, going all the way back to 1964 - yet the apartments we live in remain inaccessible in far too many instances. Here in Colorado, for example, many of the apartment building are built in a manner where there are stairs going down to the, 'first floor,' and stairs going up to additional floors, leaving people who use wheelchairs completely out of the loop. No efforts have been made to make these building accessible whatsoever, despite the return of endless numbers of veterans with disabilities returning home from military conflicts, for example, who need housing in a State with multiple major military bases.\nEvery single apartment complex in America might apply a 1% increase in the rent it charges, something that would be unpopular, but would allow building owners to begin placing that money towards accessibility modifications to apartments they own. Apartment unit by apartment unit, owners could begin installing wider doorways, roll-in showers with grab bars and more. The process must begin somewhere.\nAs for noisy and annoying tenants who have no respect for their fellow neighbors, yelling and screaming and playing their stereo's at all hours... There are headphones and ear buds available at nearly every department store in this nation. Personal conflicts can be resolved at the parking lots of these same department stores, or at the park. While calling the police department is highly undesirable, neither is disturbing an entire building of tenants over your own personal lifestyle.\nwww.fairhousingfirst.org/\nFair Housing Rights Center\nfairhousingrights.org/Housing_Laws/ADA.htm\nCitation: Disabled World.

        "raw_content": "Gambling on the unionization of managerial employees\n26 FEB 2018 By:\nCarly Meredith\nTo date, Quebec\u2019s Labour Code (the \u201cCode\u201d) expressly prohibits managerial employees from unionizing. A recent series of decisions arising from a dispute between casino employees and their employer, however, suggests the blanket ban on managerial unionization could be lifted (or at least limited) in the coming months, thereby creating the potential for a momentous shift in labour relations in the province of Quebec.\nOpening the door to unionized managers\nThe dispute at hand dates back to November 2009, when casino employees with managerial status applied for permission to unionize in an attempt to prevent their employer from unilaterally modifying working conditions. The employer immediately sought to have the petition for certification quashed, citing the managerial status of the concerned employees, which bars them from unionizing pursuant to the Code. Up until that point, the applicable law and related jurisprudence suggested the employer would easily succeed on that motion. However, when the employees argued that the prohibition to unionize unfairly infringed on their freedom of association protected by both the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, the Administrative Labour Tribunal (the \u201cTribunal\u201d) agreed with them on that point1.\nIn its decision the Tribunal found that the prohibition to unionize infringed on the employees\u2019 freedom of association guaranteed by the Canadian and Quebec Charters, and deemed the relevant provision of the Code to be inoperative with respect to these employees. The decision further suggested that it is unfair to paint all managerial employees with the same brush, and that it may be appropriate to allow employees who are designated as \u201cmanagers\u201d, but who lack substantive decision-making authority, to unionize.\nIn light of the Tribunal\u2019s decision, we may see a significant shift in Quebec labour relations once the dust has settled and all pending litigation related to this matter has been resolved.\nSafeguarding the potential to unionize\nIn the most recent decision related to these proceedings, the Quebec Court of Appeal was asked to set aside an arbitrator\u2019s decision to the effect that the casino employees should benefit from the protections afforded under the Code until such time as the Administrative Labour Tribunal renders a decision on the merits of the petition for certification1. In support of this position, the employer claimed that the presumption of the validity of the law should prevail. Surprisingly, perhaps, the Court did not agree.\nThe practical effect of this decision is that, for the time being, the protections afforded under the Code are triggered from the moment a petition for certification is filed and will continue to operate until the Administrative Labour Tribunal renders a decision on the merits of the petition for certification. In this particular case, the employer is therefore proscribed from unilaterally changing the working conditions of its employees at least until the time the Administrative Labour Tribunal determines whether these employees are legally allowed to unionize. Evidently, the risk is that employees who are not allowed to unionize will benefit from the protections afforded by the Code, at least provisionally, and for an indeterminate period of time, thereby greatly limiting the employer\u2019s managerial and administrative powers in the interim. While the Court acknowledged these inconveniences for the employer, it found that it would be a greater affront to prematurely set aside the safeguards contained in the Code and attempt to backtrack if it was ultimately found that these employees are allowed to unionize.\nConsiderations for the near future\nWhile the decision on the petition for certification, expected to come down in the coming months, will only be valid with respect to the concerned casino employees, higher courts will likely be called upon to review the ability of managerial employees to unionize more generally. The decisions related to this case so far suggest that we may be on the cusp of a new era in Quebec labour law that will involve a case-by-case determination as to whether \u201cmanagers\u201d have powers substantial enough to merit a restriction on their ability to unionize. Employers have an interest in remaining attentive to this case, as they may be dealt a new set of cards when it comes to managing their management in the near future.\n[1] Soci\u00e9t\u00e9s des casinos du Qu\u00e9bec c.

They offer multiple services including substance abuse treatment and recovery coaching.\nMuch of their work is completed at the Center for Prevention and Counseling, which delivers services intended to create addiction-free lives, emotional well-being, fiscal stability and secure communities.\nSome of their strategies include providing client-centered therapy, networking with other providers and using proven prevention techniques to educate. They also are actively involved in the community by maintaining active committee memberships. Their organization is maintained through grants and foundation funding.\nKatie Calvacca, a C.L.E.A.R. recovery support coordinator at the Center for Prevention and Counseling, indicated that marketing materials are usually created internally because it is often difficult to acquire funding for advertising since they are a nonprofit organization.\nDue to that, the students in Styles class have helped the Center for Prevention in promoting their addiction recovery program.\nBecky Carlson, the executive director at the Center, called Styles to determine if his students would be interested in assisting them again with a new task.\nCalvacca then made an appearance in Styles classroom to talk about C.L.E.A.R. and deliberated methods that could be used to spread the word about their addiction recovery program.\nShe visually explained some ideas and how they were attempting to contact and help people struggling with substance use disorders, including using newspapers and social media channels.\nC.L.E.A.R. had reported that 38 people in Sussex County had died from drug-related overdoses in 2017. They also highlighted that there were 146 overdoses where Narcan was administered by either an EMS or law enforcement.\nStyles said his students were eager to help and thought the program was beneficial. He added that they started the projects immediately, using their desktop computers and software programs to develop their blueprints and create designs. The students edited their designs until C.L.E.A.R. approved it.\nFrancis Koch, the Sussex County Prosecutor, inspected the final projects on May 23.\nStyles said that one of his students designed stickers featuring C.L.E.A.R.\u2019 phone numbers to help people easily find their addiction treatment services.\nCalvacca highlighted that, since the project is nearly complete, her team would like to find a way to use all the creations on social media. If a specific project is exceptional, it may be produced as a poster to be displayed, she added.\nStyles said it was great to see his students\u2019 willingness to help in any way possible and that he hopes his class will get more opportunities to help C.L.E.A.R. and their community.\nPrevious articleSober Living in Lawrenceburg is Focus of City\u2019s First Pride Parade\nNext articleOpioid Addiction Treatment in Dubuque Supported by New Bill\nSleep habits may predict early drug use, study shows\nMissoula Substance Abuse Prevention Increases, Treatment Needs Expansion\nOpioid Addiction Treatment in Iowa City to Expand with New Legislations",

        "raw_content": "Project CARS: \u201cStaged\u201d Screenshots vs Actual Gameplay; Here\u2019s How The Game Really Looks\nThe visuals of Slightly Mad Studios\u2019 Project CARS have been discussed a lot because seeing screenshots of actual gameplay is pretty rare. With \u201cactual gameplay\u201d I don\u2019t mean that the screenshots we\u2019re normally shown aren\u2019t taken in game, but simply that they display complex camera work which is much different from what we\u2019d see while driving.\nThat\u2019s why today we\u2019re going to show you how the game really looks on PC in Ultra settings, comparing staged screenshots taken by adjusting the camera to put the cars under the \u201cbest light\u201d with exactly the same situation shown by the normal chase camera you\u2019d see while driving (if you like external views, of course).\nThis is not to say that the game doesn\u2019t look great. It looks awesome, especially considering it\u2019s still a beta six months from release, and the cars are extremely sweet looking and painstakingly detailed.\nIt\u2019s important to mention that even the \u201cstaged\u201d screenshots use no visual tricks. They\u2019re not what one would call \u201cbullshots.\u201d There\u2019s no supers-ampling, no increased polycount or better anti-aliasing or textures compared to actual gameplay. We simply moved the camera around in a more flattering position, and that\u2019s something that can be done in game with no additional tools. As a matter of fact you\u2019d be even able to drive around like that, but course you wouldn\u2019t see where you\u2019d be going.\nObviously, you can (and should) click on each screenshot to see a full resolution version, and you should remember that we\u2019re looking at a beta, so things are probably going to improve further, especially for what the environments are concerned.\nAs you can see the game looks very pretty even in under normal camera conditions, but not quite as spectacular as it does with the right camera angles. That\u2019s actually quite normal, and that\u2019s why most trailers of basically every game are shot with an unlocked camera. Everything (not just cars) looks better under the right conditions.\nThat said, it\u2019s impressive to see how much detail Slightly Mad Studios managed to pack into each and every one of these cars (and there are several tens more, each of them with a large amount of different liveries), and it\u2019ll be interesting to see just how far they\u2019ll manage to push the game before release.\nProject Cars Developer Slightly Mad Studios is Questionably Creating a New Console Called the \u2018Mad Box\u2019\nIf the CEO of Slightly Mad Studios is to be believed, the developer is supposedly working on a new console that will be the most powerful ever built.\nProject CARS 3 Will Be More of a Shift Spiritual Successor\nCheck Out the Project CARS 2 Demo; Pre-Order Bonus Now Available\nProject CARS Developer Won\u2019t Hold Back on Scorpio Enhancements Because of PS4 Pro\nProject CARS 2 Coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC in Late 2017; Watch the 4K Announcement Trailer\nProject CARS: Game of the Year Edition Coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC Later This Year\nProject CARS Update 6.0 Is Live on PS4; Adds Host Kick Function, Set Race Length by Time and More",

        "raw_content": "For many of us, being afraid of the dentist can be a bit of a joke. We often laugh about not wanting to go and visit the dentist with friends but as long as we can muster the bravery to still go it doesn\u2019t really matter.\nIn some cases though, this slight weariness can develop into a full blown fear or even a phobia. In such scenarios, we might find ourselves completely avoiding going to the dentist at all even when we really need to.\nThis is when a funny character quirk can become a real problem, as it means you\u2019ll end up not getting crucial checkups potentially allowing minor conditions to develop into serious problems. Ironically, it\u2019s not going to the dentist that makes you far more likely to need a painful procedure.\nMeanwhile, if there is a procedure you want from your dentist such as whitening or a general clean, then you might well find yourself unable to get that procedure and thus stuck with teeth that don\u2019t look half as good as they could do.\nIf you find yourself in this boat, then it\u2019s time to pick yourself up and make a point of overcoming your irrational fear. Read on and we\u2019ll look at some of the ways you can do that\u2026\nThe first thing to do is to find a good dentist who you feel you can trust and who makes you feel at ease. This is in fact an important part of a dentist\u2019s job, so if you feel on edge then it\u2019s important to look elsewhere.\nTry speaking to a few dentists in your area and you should get a feel for what they\u2019re like. Hopefully you\u2019ll find there\u2019s one who you hit it off with and who\u2019s sympathetic to your plight and this will most likely help a great deal.\nWhen you book an appointment it\u2019s a good idea to book one as soon as possible. This helps because it means you won\u2019t get anxious as the date gradually approaches \u2013 better to get it out of the way as soon as possible.\nAnother tip with regards to timing is to ensure that you aren\u2019t rushed as this will only add to your stress. If you\u2019re normally at work, then book time off in order to make your appointment and it can make a big difference.\nCBT is \u2018cognitive behavioral therapy\u2019 \u2013 a type of psychotherapeutic intervention designed to help combat negative thought patterns and associations that lead to phobias and anxieties. The central idea here is to use \u2018cognitive restructuring\u2019 to challenge your thoughts on a subject in order to start thinking more healthily about it. In this case, ask yourself where your fear really comes from and challenge yourself regarding whether or not those views are really warranted or logical. Over time this can help you to combat a phobia of the dentist but even in the short term it can make you feel less nervous about something like dental implants or fillings.",

        "raw_content": "During the last two decades, programs in the closely related areas of moral, civic, ethics, and values education have been added to the curricula of many high schools. To help school administrators assess the effectiveness of such programs, two researchers have produced Program Evaluation in Moral Education.\nHugh F. Kline and Robert A. Feldmesser, authors of this handbook for program evaluation, write that today, everything from justifying the budget request for such a program to improving it makes evaluation a necessity. But evaluation of these particular types of educational programs, the authors say, carries with it \"special difficulties,\" (such as measuring whether students are \"more moral\" after they've gone through a program, and making sure all the parties involved in the evaluation agree on its goals).\nMr. Kline and Mr. Feldmesser de-fine moral education as \"deliberate efforts, within a school setting, to increase students' abilities to consider the potential impact of their behavior on the well-being of others.\" And they recommend an \"eclectic\" approach to evaluating moral education.\n\"Given the complexities of moral education,\" the authors write, a single evaluation method with a narrow focus won't work. \"Small amounts of data from each of many different methods will be a more reliable basis for judgment, and a more convincing basis for action, than a large amount collected by one or a few procedures.\"\nProgram Evaluation in Moral Education also outlines four common types of moral-education programs and offers prototypes of such programs in various school settings.\nConcerned about the minimal use of seat belts by teen-age drivers, the Vermont department of education conducted a study to determine how educators can influence the behavior of young drivers.\nThe department ran a test on seat-belt usage in five high schools as part of its driver-education services to the schools. A sixth school was involved in the test but did not receive safety instruction.\nAt one of the five schools, state officials used the \"convincer,\" a car seat mounted on a short, downhill slide. A ride down the slide produces the sensation of crashing into a guard railing, the officials said. Students who took the ride wore seat belts and were not harmed by the experience, the officials noted.\nAccording to John Harvey, driver and safety consultant for the state department of education, the use of seat belts increased by 175 percent at the one school where the experimental device was used.\nIn addition to demonstrating the effectiveness of the convincer, Mr. Harvey said the study showed that educators can influence young drivers to take available safety precautions. In a 1982 survey, state officials found that 11 percent of Vermont's students--more than twice the national average--wore seat belts.\nThe House Subcommittee on Elementary, Secondary and Vocational Education has approved a bill that would provide an additional $105 million for child-nutrition programs in fiscal 1984 and $160 million in fiscal 1985.\nThe move followed a hearing last month at which a panel of nutritionists and education officials urged the subcommittee to restore $150 million to the programs, which include the federal school-lunch program.\nThe bill approved by the subcommittee allotted $103 million for 1984 to the entitlement programs--including the lunch program. The funding would go toward lowering the cost of a reduced-price lunch from its current level of 40 cents to 25 cents and the cost of a reduced-price breakfast from 30 cents to 15 cents. It would also change the level below which families are eligible for the program from the current 185 percent of the poverty level to 195 percent.\nThat shift was strongly supported by nutritionists, who argue that children in that eligibility category have dropped out of the program in the greatest numbers.\nIn addition, the measure would increase by six cents the federal reimbursement for each school breakfast served, and would increase funding for the Nutrition Education and Training Program by $2.5 million.\nA similar measure has been introduced in the Senate, but no action has been taken on it.\nThe U.S. House of Representatives passed the National Summit Conference on Education Act by voice vote last week, despite a memo from the Administration advising Representatives not to approve the bill.\n\"The measure before us today,\" Representative Carl D. Perkins, Democrat of Kentucky, told House members, \"represents the first step at the national level toward improving the quality of education in this country.\"\nIf made law, the legislation will bring together a bipartisan group of 200 participants, representing educators, parents, state legislators, governors, students, business, labor, women, minorities, and handicapped persons, to discuss implementation of programs to improve the quality of education in the United States, the lawmaker said.\nA memo from the Office of Management and Budget, according to a spokesman for the U.S. Education Department, advised House members against passing the summit act because it duplicates a meeting planned by Secretary of Education Terrel H. Bell.\nThe bill makes a reference to the Education Department's cooperation, stating: \"Any conference established by the Department of Education should be complementary to the National Summit Conference on Education.\"\nA similar bill is awaiting action in the Senate.\nThe U.S. Justice Department's civil-rights division will dispatch two lawyers \"fairly soon\" to gather information on a number of school districts in Mississippi to determine whether they \"are in compliance with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as it pertains to student assignments,\" a Justice Department spokesman said last week.\nThe department will begin the investigation at the request of the Mississippi National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The spokesman declined to give the precise date that the investigation would begin, but naacp officials said they would hold a news conference on Oct. 17 announcing the beginning of the investigation.\nThe naacp has been collecting information on school districts' tracking and placement practices, according to Morris Kinsey, chairman of the association's education committee. The group alleges that disproportionately high numbers of black children are placed in special-education classes, and disproportionately low numbers of black children are placed in classes for gifted and talented students.",

        "title": "Alabama Group Closes Its 'Secular Humanism' Suit - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Alabama Group Closes Its 'Secular Humanism' Suit\nThe Mobile County, Ala., citizens' group that charged that textbooks used by local schools unconstitutionally promoted \"secular humanism\" will not appeal its case to the U.S. Supreme Court, a spokesman for the group confirmed last week.\nThe decision effectively ends a two-year-old lawsuit, initiated by 624 parents, students, and teachers, that attracted national attention to issues involving the content of major textbook series.\nThe federal district judge hearing the case banned 44 textbooks on the novel legal grounds that they promoted the \"religion\" of secular humanism. That ruling was later reversed.\nExplaining last week why her group believes an appeal to the Supreme Court is not necessary, Judith C. Whorton, a parent and spokesman, said, \"We have brought to the public's attention the issue of humanism and lack of religion in the schools.\"\nMs. Whorton also argued that her group had achieved its objective of convincing the federal appeals court that heard the case \"that secular humanism is a religion,\" a contention with which lawyers for the defense disagreed.\nThe vacancy on the High Court left by Associate Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr.'s retirement also was a factor in the decision, Ms. Whorton said, noting that \"we did not know when our case would be heard, or by whom.\"\nLawyers for both sides also said it was unlikely that the Court would have accepted the case for review.\nIn a written statement, Barber Sherling, a Mobile lawyer who represented the plaintiffs, said the federal appellate court's decision not to consider evidence and testimony presented during the district-court trial would have required the High Court to make a lengthy review of the case.\nTypically, the Court declines to hear cases that involve factual disputes, and instead limits its jurisdiction to disputes over the meaning of laws or constitutional provisions.\nJames R. Ippolito Jr., a lawyer for the Alabama Board of Education, which was the primary defendant in the case, said there were \"no signifiel10lcant legal issues\" raised by the case that would have warranted the Court's review.\nThe plaintiffs' decision not to pursue the case left intact a federal appeals court's ruling last August that the 44 challenged textbooks do not promote secular humanism in violation of the First Amendment.\nThe decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit overturned U.S. District Judge W. Brevard Hand's ruling last March that humanism is a religion, and that the books advanced its precepts.\nThe appeals court held that the plaintiffs had not shown that the schools were promoting a religion in violation of the U.S. Constitution, and said it was not necessary to rule on the question of whether humanism is a religion.\nArthur J. Kropp, president of People for the American Way, the Washington-based civil-liberties group that financed the defense of the textbooks, said the case \"was unique and eccentric from the beginning\" and was not likely to have succeeded in the High Court.\nHe said lawyers for his organization would ask the district court \"in the next few weeks\" to order the plaintiffs to compensate the defendants for their legal fees. He would not reveal an amount.\nMs. Whorton, whose two high-school-age sons left the Mobile schools to attend private schools while the suit was pending, said the plaintiffs planned to \"stay involved in the issue\" of textbook content.\nShe said the citizens' group has made a 38-minute videocassette tape that it is selling to help pay its legal fees. Titled \"Humanism: An Explanation,\" the videotape of a panel discussion \"tells in a nutshell what the case is about and what parents can do to be involved,\" Ms. Whorton said.",

        "raw_content": "Industry Preparing For Push In FM Stereo\nTriggered by the FCC's approval of suppressed-carrier-am as the multiplex standard for fm stereo broadcasts, manufacturers are preparing to produce equipment for transmitting and receiving. In the new system, the main carrier is frequency-modulated by the sum of the left and right microphone signals and by the sidebands of a suppressed subcarrier. The subcarrier is amplitude-modulated and suppressed by a left-minus-right difference signal. The suppressed subcarrier is restored at the receiver by a pilot signal transmitted between subcarrier and main carrier.\nTo receive the broadcasts requires that an adapter be added to a standard fm tuner and dual-channel amplifier. General Electric Co. believes that a one-tube adapter\u2014a double triode\u2014would give satisfactory results, although it says addition of a preamplifier would make possible good reception by a wider variety of amplifiers. The cost of the adapter would be minor compared to that of the complete stereo system.\nThe system is compatible with existing fm broadcasting standards. Monophonic receivers tuned to stereo transmissions would receive the left-plus-right signal and produce sound only slightly reduced in quality. (Electronic Design, May 10, 1961, p. 6)\nFM stereo broadcasting was authorized to begin on June 1, 1961, and regular operations began at WEFM Chicago and WGFM Schenectady. There's a good chronology of FM broadcasting at http://members.aol.com/jeff560/chronofm.html.",

Cloned Super Soldiers?\nEmpowerU Studio at Frame USA\nGene Editing with CRISPR technologies will shape the future of the human race, and it is important that we stay informed on where it may lead us. In this class, the origins, applications, and ethics of CRISPR gene editing will be discussed. From bacteria to designer babies, the scary and exciting possibilities of CRISPR will be explained in a simple format.\nHenry Heimlich is a 9th grader at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy who has always had great interest in the topic of gene editing and manipulation. In August of 2018, Henry had an op-ed published in the Cincinnati Enquirer on the subject of CRISPR gene editing. He first learned about CRISPR while doing a school project on the topic of cloning. His interest was further peaked when he saw the movie Rampage, and noticed inaccuracies surrounding CRISPR in the movie. That led Henry to further research and to submitting the op-ed. Along with being on his school\u2019s Robotics team, he also trains in mixed martial arts and recently earned his red belt. Henry also enjoys performing standup comedy, and will be performing this April for the third time at his school\u2019s annual ArtBeat event.\nIs the Electoral College outdated having served its purpose, if it ever had one?\nDemocracy Now!

His concern prompted him to spend a Sunday afternoon 10-years ago booking Fountain Square for 3 weeks out, creating a website, and starting conversations with family and friends about building an event.\nHe had low expectations for attendance for what would become the Tea Party\u2019s first march on Fountain Square March 15, 2009.\nMike had read that morning about a few rallies that occurred the day before against the recently passed stimulus bill in cities out west.\nWith that inspiration, the Cincinnati Tea Party was born and with the help of those family and friends (and several people that heard about the plans and got involved early)three weeks later, more than 6,000 people showed up with signs to Fountain Square to ceremonially dump tea bags and listen to speakers from all walks of life.\nDuring the three weeks leading up to the event in Cincinnati, other tea party events had been held across the nation, but this was the first to draw national media coverage and it unleashed a wave of momentum leading up to Tax Day 2009 where thousands of events were held and nearly a million people attended to advocate for three core values \u2013 free markets, fiscal responsibility, and limited government \u2013 first championed by the group in Cincinnati and adopted by national groups created to help coordinate efforts and provide resources moving forward.\nIn Cincinnati, the tax day event was held on a cold and wet Wednesday afternoon and still drew more than 4500 people to Fountain Square for a few speakers followed by a march to City Hall to deliver a petition. For the first time, many regular people felt like they had a voice in politics and found out that participating in politics could actually be a little bit fun as they fought against Cap and Trade (and won), Card Check (and won), and Obamacare (which ultimately passed but with massive consequences to the Democratic Party)\nMike Wilson wasn\u2019t a politician either. He was a Cincinnati native and graduate of St. Xavier High School/University of Cincinnati with 3 young kids who was now at the forefront of the Tea Party movement locally and across the State of Ohio. In between working as an IT Consultant/Manager and coaching basketball games, Mike built a team that helped other groups grow across our region and drive a level of citizen engagement that we haven\u2019t seen before or since. People were encouraged to run for office \u2013 from getting engaged as a precinct executive in their party to local government to reaching even higher. Mike put his money where his mouth is and announced his candidacy for Ohio House District 28 at a September event that drew 18,000 people to Voice of America Park. He won the Republican primary easily in a 4-way race and faced off against the Democratic incumbent. In a good Republican year, but terrible district, Mike finished election night down 5 votes out of more than 43,000 cast and ultimately lost the race once provisional votes were counted.\nAfter the race, Mike continued the fight against Obamacare and helped lead the effort to collect 450,000 petitions to put a constitutional amendment on the ballot in Ohio to protect healthcare freedom. This effort was successful and Mike was chairman of the 2011 campaign that won 2/3 of the vote and enshrined this in the Ohio Constitution. Mike ran again in 2012 and unfortunately lost again in a difficult year for Republicans all across the ballot. He then took the opportunity to step back from politics and reengage in his IT career as head of technical operations and a partner in Interlink Cloud Advisors which has grown into the top Microsoft partner in the region.\nJoining Mike this night will be three of the leaders involved in the Tea Party movement.\nGeorge Bruenemann was the leader of the successful Southwest Ohio Tea Party.

What did the Tea Party Accomplish? What is Left to Accomplish?\nPlease Bring A Box of Tea For Charity\nThe Doolittle Raid, also known as the Tokyo Raid, commenced on April 18, 1942. Sixteen U.S. Army Air Forces B-25B Mitchell medium bombers were launched without fighter escort from the U.S. Navy\u2019s aircraft carrier USS Hornet, led by (then Col.) Jimmy Doolittle.\nThe Raid was a total secret to all involved and the members of the raid were chosen by volunteering for a \u201cdangerous secret mission\u201d. The members did not know the target destination until the planes were loaded on the ship and the raid was underway. This was to prevent any \u201cleakage\u201d of information about the raid.\nThe Doolittle Tokyo Raiders were a group of eighty men from all walks of life who flew into history. They were to fly over Japan, drop their bombs and fly on to land in a part of China that was still free.\nFifteen of the aircraft reached China, and the other one landed in the Soviet Union. All but three of the crew survived, but all the aircraft were lost. Eight crewmen were captured by the Japanese Army in China; three of these were executed. At 103 Richard Cole is the last living veteran.\nIntelligence Operations Airman 2nd Class Raymond G. Hughes, Petersburg, KY, entered the Air Force in 1956, serving for four years in the USAF intelligence school Target Planning & Survival unit until 1960. Hughes served during the Cold War with the 8th Air Force 100 Bomb Wing Intelligence Division, primarily with Strategic Air Command.\nAirman Hughes continued to serve his community as an instructor at the Yudan School of Self Defense Karate and Judo, where he trained men, women, and children in the art of self-defense. He became a voice for veterans and one of the most respected members of the Doolittle Tokyo Raiders, where he dedicated his time and energy in making life more comfortable for other members.\nRaymond serves as historian and even manager for the USS Hornet Breakfast Group conducts events for veterans at the Cincinnati Hamilton County Public Library, and interviews veterans of all wars in collaboration with the National Archives in Washington, D.C. where he has interviewed 75 veterans to date. Twice each month, he can be found transporting veterans from Twin Towers Retirement Center to shop for personal items. Raymond is involved in the Sons of the American Revolution and takes pride in helping others trace their ancestral lineage.\nCrosley Field Remembered\nRelive the memorable 1919 and 1940 Reds World Championships brought to you by Roush and Lombardi.

Reservations are not required, but spaces are limited.\nSponsored by Cincinnati Museum Center\nJack Grossman Child of the Forest\nEscaping the Horoch\u00f3w ghetto was just the beginning for twelve-year-old Musia Perlmutter. Alone, starving, freezing at times, and running and hiding for her life, Musia sought refuge in the forest for two years while Holocaust death camps loomed nearby. Child of the Forest is based on the true story and tribulations of Shulamit \u201cMusia\u201d Perlmutter, born in 1929 to Simcha and Fruma Perlmutter, and stands as a memorial to her extraordinary courage.\nWhen Jack Grossman committed to this project in 2006, he didn\u2019t realize it would take twelve years to bring it to fruition. The journey was dotted with events such as the economic meltdown, a near-death stroke, and several other traumatic life experiences. Jack is a believer in the saying that there is a reason for everything, and he believes that in the end, this book is the culmination of aligning the perfect people at the perfect time. Child of the Forest is based on the life story of a courageous young girl who bore witness to humanity\u2019s darkest time. When Jack faces challenges now, he simply thinks of Charlene, and it puts life back into perspective.\nI\u2019ve been asked by many people if I had any photos of Charlene when she was younger that I could post. This photo was taken just before leaving for America. Here is the cutline:Charlene Schiff, born, Shulamit Perlmutter, right, poses for a photograph before she leaves for America. The original caption reads, \u201cTo Dear Muszka, So that she should remember that we love her and ask her not to forget us, even in America. Ania and Sala.\u201d (U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum)\nJack will present EmpowerU with an engaging reading with interactive, thought-provoking discussion about the Holocaust. A lot of narrative will presented along with an powerpoint presentation that follows the readings. Jack will be signing paperback copies of the book before the event at 6:30 pm for a discounted price of $12, and hardback books for the discounted price of $18.00.\nJack has written and designed award-winning advertising, having won numerous awards including 5 Addy Awards for regional and national clients. Jack has also won a 1st Place Award in the Tampa Bay Region Billboard Magazine Songwriting Contest, along with dozens of other advertising/design and songwriting awards. His housewares invention in the late 1980s was featured in Spiegel Catalog, Neiman-Marcus, Brookstone Company, and scores of other department stores and catalogs nationwide.\nJack has also been highly recognized for his community service work, having been presented numerous Humanitarian Awards, including The Award of Excellence; one of only three presented by a billion-dollar NYSE company in 1998. As a result, he was featured with his family in a :60 second TV commercial that aired during the final episode of Spin City, The Academy of Country Music Awards and the Dallas 500 NASCAR Race. He was recognized with a Power Board Award by Boys & Girls Club National for turning an almost defunct Florida Boys & Girls Club into a thriving organization that built and moved into a new 5,500 sq. ft. facility under his leadership, all within 15 months of Jack joining the Board. Jack is also a Founding Member and a Legacy Board Member of Dove House Children\u2019s Advocacy Center, where he has raised over $4.5-million and once again led a campaign that built a new $2.2-million state-of-the-art facility during the economic downturn of 2008, with 93% of the project being donated under his leadership. The facility serves sexually abused children and is affectionately referred to as \u201cThe House that Jack Built\u201d. Jack is also an original Founder of the Lake Norman Jewish Community which has now transformed into Temple Kol Tikvah. Jack was recently named Mooresville, South Iredell, North Carolina Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year for his work with Dove House.\nJack suffered a brainstem stroke in 2010, which initially left him totally paralyzed on his left side. After intense physical therapy and a drive to continue to help others and produce the Child of the Forest book/film project, Jack is now 85% \u2013 90% recovered and is back to work 100%. He has a beautiful wife, 4 daughters, and one grandson, and resides in Mooresville, North Carolina.\nDoris Day \u2014 America\u2019s Sweetheart\nWest Side Brewery\nTake a sentimental journey through the life of Doris Day.\nThis great lady of American entertainment was born in Cincinnati and began her spectacular singing career with the Barney Rapp Orchestra.\nUpon arriving in Hollywood, she began a film career, starring in 39 movies.\nWith pictures, stories and the vocal stylings of a local professional singer, ten songs made famous by Doris will be performed live during the presentation.\n\u201cDolores Raye\u201d (Dee Mason) \u2013 Before relocating back home to downtown Cincinnati in December, 2011, with her and sound/music engineer Michael Schultz, Dolores lived in Estero, Florida, maintaining two homes in both locations. While living in Estero she was in management at Page Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center in Fort Myers, Florida. She is a local graduate of Princeton High School, class of 1964. She joined TWA as an overseas flight attendant in 1968 retiring in 2001. During her years of working, and living in Europe while with the airline, she sang in several different hotels and clubs throughout Europe, the British Isles, and later while living in Florida. She continues to perform her own shows locally. She enjoys her work with Cincinnati Heritage Programs at the Cincinnati Museum Center, where she performs the music in our shows and is involved in other volunteer work with Heritage Programs.\nThe Democratic\u2019s Civil War\n& The 2020 Nomination Battle\nAfter their loss of the Presidency in 2008, the Republicans engaged in a vicious civil war over the direction of the Party \u2026 Tea Party Republicans v. establishment Republicans. That battle raged until shortly before Donald Trump was nominated in 2016. Ironically, the end of that war and the election of Donald Trump signaled the beginning of a civil war in the Democratic Party. At the core of the new war is the battle for control of the Party between the left-wing progressives and the Democratic establishment.\nThis battle within the Party will play out in multiple ways during the 2020 nomination contest. Not only will it be progressives v. establishment, but also women v. men, minorities v. whites, coastal candidates v. heartland, and old faces v. new. Dr. Tuchfarber will describe and explain these battles and the candidates that are waging them. He will also elucidate how the Party\u2019s debate rules, primary rules, and convention rules add extra complexity to the struggle that will rage from early 2019 through the convention in July 2020.\nAlfred J Tuchfarber PhD, Professor Emeritus of Political Science \u2013 University of Cincinnati\nOwner \u2013 Tuchfarber Political-Economics, LLC\nBlogger \u2013 TuchfarberReport.com\nIn 2014 and 2016 Tuchfarber predicted the American election results with great accuracy, unlike a large majority of the pundits. He did so because he has a deep understanding of the voters\u2019 priorities and thinking, as well as of the rapidly changing coalitions that make up the American political parties. As a political-economic analyst and author of the Tuchfarber Report, Al brings you insights and forecasts that you will not find elsewhere.\nReagan and the Brandenburg Gate Speech 31 Years Later\nEmpowerU will watch one of the most famous speeches of all time 31 years after date that Ronald Reagan delivered the Brandenburg Gate speech. The Brandenburg Gate, was built between 1788 and 1791 by Prussian King Frederick William II as a key entry point to the city of Berlin. In 1987 it stood as a symbol of communism in the West when the wall went up in 1961 access to the gate now located in East Berlin was cut off.\nThe \u201ctear down this wall\u201d speech was not the first time Ronald Reagan had addressed the issue of the Berlin Wall: in a visit to West Berlin in June 1982, he\u2019d stated \u201cI\u2019d like to ask the Soviet leaders one question \u201cWhy is the wall there?\u201d,] and in 1986, 25 years after the construction of the wall, in response to West German newspaper Bild-Zeitung asking when he thought the wall could be \u201ctorn down\u201d, Reagan said, \u201cI call upon those responsible to dismantle it today.\u201d\nThe speech was also a source of considerable controversy within the Reagan administration itself, with several senior staffers and aides advising against the phrase, saying anything that might cause further East-West tensions or potential embarrassment to Gorbachev, with whom President Reagan had built a good relationship, should be omitted.\nAmerican officials in West Germany and presidential speechwriters, including Peter Robinson, thought otherwise. Robinson traveled to West Germany to inspect potential speech venues, and gained an overall sense that the majority of West Berliners opposed the wall.\nOn Monday, May 18, 1987, President Reagan met with his speechwriters and responded to the speech by saying, \u201cI thought it was a good, solid draft.\u201d White House Chief of Staff Howard Baker objected, saying it sounded \u201cextreme\u201d and \u201cunpresidential\u201d, and Deputy U.S. National Security Advisor Colin Powell agreed. Nevertheless, Reagan liked the passage, saying, \u201cI think we\u2019ll leave it in.\u201d\nJoin EmpowerU as we watch the entire speech on film 31 years later. We will set up our conversation with what was going on in the Country before, and after to give you historical perspective. This speech is as meaningful today as it was back on June 12, 1987.\nMatt Byrne will moderate this class by taking us through the events leading up to Reagan\u2019s important speech. He will walk through the historical context of the speech-what was happening politically, where were we at with Russia and the Cold War. Matt Byrne primarily represents clients in state and federal trial court and appellate litigation, in arbitration, and before administrative agencies. His litigation experience includes the full spectrum of employment matters, ranging from individual claims to complex class and collective actions. He has represented clients in appeals before the Ohio Supreme Court and the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, among other appellate courts.\nAfter the Speech we will hear from Harald Ziegler to talk about what it was like to live behind the wall and the Iron curtain. Harald was raised behind the Iron Curtain, fully indoctrinated with the communistic ideology, he was a card-carrying member of the communist party of East Germany, when his belief system was scattered by the confrontation with GOD\u2019s word; as a graduated electronic engineer, he served at a Navy base until he was expelled for publicly declaring his faith. After a ten year fight with the almighty State Security Police (STASI), he could leave, what he calls one of the largest prisons on earth. Twenty years later he realized his lifetime dream and immigrated to the United States. Harald was one of the co-founders of the Cincinnati Tea Party and her Senior Strategist for many years.\nYes, I would like to receive emails from Empower U Ohio.

        "title": "Empty Nest: How to Solve the Biggest Relationship Problems",
        "raw_content": "How to Solve the Biggest Relationship Problems\nKick everyone out of your house. LOL I'm kidding. But, now that I have your attention...\nHow DO you solve the biggest relationship problems? Walk away and forget about it? Drop the other person from your life and move on? Fake it by pretending to be ok with everything when you really aren't? Do whatever it takes just as long as you can avoid confrontation?\nYeah, those are the easy ways out. But they don't do one darn thing for solving the problems. Any of the above choices would merely mask our true feelings and, at some point, whether it takes an hour or twenty years, that mask is going to slide right off your face and all hell is going to break loose. Seriously.\nI believe the best thing to do, no matter how uncomfortable or time consuming or painful or whatever it is, is to communicate.\nI understand that there are folks out there who make communication virtually impossible. I know people like this. Whenever you talk to these people, they turn it around on you or start yelling at you, maybe they start calling you names. Yeah, they can make you not care to discuss anything with them. At all. EVER.\nBut, I go ahead and do it anyway. At least you get it out there. It's been said, you've gotten it out and you will feel better. The understanding (or lack thereof) and the willingness (or unwillingness) and the ability to communicate (or inability) is on THEM. Not you\nCommunication skills are not that diffiicult. All you have to do is share your thoughts/feelings/perspective/ideas/etc. CALMLY and RESPECTFULLY (watch your tone of voice, body language, and your words). And you must be willing to listen to the other person giving feedback just to make sure you truly understand what he/she means.\nAll too often we jump on the offensive because we believe we are under attack. That's not always the case. Most of the time we simply misunderstand what is really being voiced.\nKeeping judgment out of the conversation is also a must. Assuming you know exactly what the other person's problem is and what they're saying just because you've known them forever and a day is not a good idea. People change and so do their thoughts/ideas/opinions/perspective/etc. Having an opinion is fine, but expressing it when someone is trying to share their feelings with you could very well be bad timing on your part. A lot of the time, all someone is doing is wanting someone to listen.\nOpening up and sharing our feelings is not easy. When we do,, we make ourselves vulnerable. If someone does open up to us, they are letting us know that they trust us. Calling them names or making them feel stupid let's them know immediately that they cannot trust us. So, on top having problems, they know realize that their relationship with us is not what they thought. Double trouble.\nHaving that 'I'm right, you're wrong' mentality isn't going to help either. Even if it's true. (I'm kidding, sheesh). Seriously, sporting this attitude will get you nowhere and will make people see you as an arrogant jerk-wad.\nKeeping a relationship healthy requires effort. Putting ourselves (our ego/wants/agendas/etc) aside makes that effort just a little bit easier. Even when the other person doesn't do the same for us.\nSo, do tell, how do y'all solve a relationship problem?\nLabels: communication, empty nest, opinion, relationships\nTerri D. March 10, 2014 at 8:24 AM\nI agree with you. Most problems can be boiled down to communication. For goodness sake - talk to each other!!\nCranberry Morning March 10, 2014 at 10:09 AM\nI definitely agree. I'm a resolver. I hate a lack of communication even more than I hate healthy confrontation.\nCommunication is I think the best way to solve anything,it is just hard. Sometimes it tests us at every level and experience and it is something that has to be done. Just never give up.\nDr. Kathy McCoy March 10, 2014 at 12:46 PM\nYou're so right that communication -- and keeping calm -- are key. Too many people strike out verbally in anger or put a stone silence between them and these tactics just cause anger and resentments to build. Sometimes, too, being the first to apologize -- even if you're convinced you're right -- can lead to greater peace and understanding.\nI could have written this post or at least part of it. I live with that person who turns everything around and puts it all on me. So I get quiet, time passes and then I try again. After so much time trying to work on this I kinda feel like your first sentence.....\"kick them out!\"\nThe pres is not much of a communicator so it takes time and patience to get him to reveal feelings...but I know how...thank goodness!!...:)JP\nI used to be a people pleaser through and through until I met my husband and he pointed out that of all my friends that I jumped through hoops for - did I get anything in return? Huh. The answer was no. So now I communicate how I feel instead of feeling guilty about doing something I didn't really want in the first place. Make any sense?!\nTerri- Well put!\nJudy- I am too. To the point where it drives me NUTS if it isn't resolved.\nKim- You're right: Just never give up. :)\nKathy- Notice I didn't mention being the first to apologize? Cause I hate to apologize? LOL\nDebby- I feel like my first sentence every single day.\nJP- That's because you KNOW him. Some people don't take the time to know the other person even though they've been together for 20+ years.\nbiz- YES! It makes perfect sense. I feel that way sometimes when I should have just said, \"No, I don't want to do that.\" But instead of guilty, I get angry.",

        "title": "Weighing the Smallest Stars | ESO",
        "raw_content": "Weighing the Smallest Stars\nVLT Finds Young, Very Low Mass Objects Are Twice As Heavy As Predicted\nThanks to the powerful new high-contrast camera installed at the Very Large Telescope, photos have been obtained of a low-mass companion very close to a star. This has allowed astronomers to measure directly the mass of a young, very low mass object for the first time. The object, more than 100 times fainter than its host star, is still 93 times as massive as Jupiter. And it appears to be almost twice as heavy as theory predicts it to be. This discovery therefore suggests that, due to errors in the models, astronomers may have overestimated the number of young \"brown dwarfs\" and \"free floating\" extrasolar planets.\nA star can be characterised by many parameters. But one is of uttermost importance: its mass. It is the mass of a star that will decide its fate. It is thus no surprise that astronomers are keen to obtain a precise measure of this parameter.\nThis is however not an easy task, especially for the least massive ones, those at the border between stars and brown dwarf objects. Brown dwarfs, or \"failed stars\", are objects which are up to 75 times more massive than Jupiter, too small for major nuclear fusion processes to have ignited in its interior.\nTo determine the mass of a star, astronomers generally look at the motion of stars in a binary system. And then apply the same method that allows determining the mass of the Earth, knowing the distance of the Moon and the time it takes for its satellite to complete one full orbit (the so-called \"Kepler's Third Law\"). In the same way, they have also measured the mass of the Sun by knowing the Earth-Sun distance and the time - one year - it takes our planet to make a tour around the Sun.\nThe problem with low-mass objects is that they are very faint and will often be hidden in the glare of the brighter star they orbit, also when viewed in large telescopes.\nAstronomers have however found ways to overcome this difficulty. For this, they rely on a combination of a well-considered observational strategy with state-of-the-art instruments.\nHigh contrast camera\nFirst, astronomers searching for very low mass objects look at young nearby stars because low-mass companion objects will be brightest while they are young, before they contract and cool off.\nIn this particular case, an international team of astronomers [1] led by Laird Close (Steward Observatory, University of Arizona), studied the star AB Doradus A (AB Dor A). This star is located about 48 light-years away and is \"only\" 50 million years old. Because the position in the sky of AB Dor A \"wobbles\", due to the gravitational pull of a star-like object, it was believed since the early 1990s that AB Dor A must have a low-mass companion.\nTo photograph this companion and obtain a comprehensive set of data about it, Close and his colleagues used a novel instrument on the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope. This new high-contrast adaptive optics camera, the NACO Simultaneous Differential Imager, or NACO SDI [2], was specifically developed by Laird Close and Rainer Lenzen (Max-Planck-Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany) for hunting extrasolar planets. The SDI camera enhances the ability of the VLT and its adaptive optics system to detect faint companions that would normally be lost in the glare of the primary star.\nTurning this camera towards AB Dor A in February 2004, they were able for the first time to image a companion so faint - 120 times fainter than its star - and so near its star.\nSays Markus Hartung (ESO), member of the team: \"This world premiere was only possible because of the unique capabilities of the NACO SDI instrument on the VLT. In fact, the Hubble Space Telescope tried but failed to detect the companion, as it was too faint and too close to the glare of the primary star.\"\nThe tiny distance between the star and the faint companion (0.156 arcsec) is the same as the width of a one Euro coin (2.3 cm) when seen 20 km away. The companion, called AB Dor C, was seen at a distance of 2.3 times the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun. It completes a cycle around its host star in 11.75 years on a rather eccentric orbit.\nUsing the companion's exact location, along with the star's known 'wobble', the astronomers could then accurately determine the companion's mass. The object, more than 100 times fainter than its close primary star, has one tenth of the mass of its host star, i.e., it is 93 times more massive than Jupiter. It is thus slightly above the brown dwarf limit.\nUsing NACO on the VLT, the astronomers further observed AB Dor C at near infrared wavelengths to measure its temperature and luminosity.\n\"We were surprised to find that the companion was 400 degrees (Celsius) cooler and 2.5 times fainter than the most recent models predict for an object of this mass,\" Close said.\n\"Theory predicts that this low-mass, cool object would be about 50 Jupiter masses. But theory is incorrect: this object is indeed between 88 to 98 Jupiter masses.\"\nThese new findings therefore challenge current ideas about the brown dwarf population and the possible existence of widely publicized \"free-floating\" extrasolar planets.\nIndeed, if young objects hitherto identified as brown dwarfs are twice as massive as was thought, many must rather be low-mass stars. And objects recently identified as \"free-floating\" planets are in turn likely to be low-mass brown dwarfs.\nFor Close and his colleagues, \"this discovery will force astronomers to rethink what masses of the smallest objects produced in nature really are.\"\n[1]: The team is composed of Laird M. Close, Eric Nielsen, Eric E. Mamajek and Beth Biller (Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, Tucson, USA), Rainer Lenzen and Wolfgang Brandner (Max-Planck Institut for Astronomie, Heidelberg, Germany), Jose C. Guirado (University of Valencia, Spain), and Markus Hartung and Chris Lidman (ESO-Chile).\n[2]: The NACO SDI camera is a unique type of camera using adaptive optics, which removes the blurring effects of Earth's atmosphere to produce extremely sharp images. SDI splits light from a single star into four identical images, then passes the resulting beams through four slightly different (methane-sensitive) filters. When the filtered light beams hit the camera's detector array, astronomers can subtract the images so the bright star disappears, revealing a fainter, cooler object otherwise hidden in the star's scattered light halo (\"glare\"). Unique images of Saturn's satellite Titan obtained earlier with NACO SDI were published in eso0412.\nThe work presented here appears as a Letter in the January 20 issue of Nature (\"A dynamical calibration of the mass-luminosity relation at very low stellar masses and young ages\" by L.

        "raw_content": "Android / PlayStation 3 / PlayStation 4 / Xbox 360 / Xbox One\nSony has revealed a line-up of Metal Gear Solid 5-branded gadgets in Japan. These range from smartphones to tablets to a \u00a3729 walkman.\nRevealed on Sony's Japanese store (via Siliconera), the most luxurious item is the ZX series NW-ZX2 Walkman, which goes for \u00a5140k. That's roughly \u00a3729 or $1145.\nSo what does this outlandishly expensive gadget include, you ask? Well, aside from having an Outer Heaven logo engraved into its back, this walkman is a 128GB model that comes bundled with an Outer Heaven leather case, 10 songs from MGS5, the exclamation point sound effect from the games, and four wallpapers.\n\u00a3729 may sound expensive (because it is), but the NW-ZX2 Walkman tends to go for about this price anyway, even without all the added MGS branding and swag. (According to Amazon, it's $989 in the US and an even more expensive \u00a3928 in the UK.)\nSony revealed some more affordable MGS5-branded electronics as well, including a much cheaper 32GB NW-A16 walkman that costs \u00a528k (about \u00a3146 / $229).\nAdditionally, Sony's branded a couple of Xperia tablets. The Z3 goes for \u00a559k (around \u00a3310 / $450), while its newer Z4 costs \u00a584k (around \u00a3437 / $687). These also include an MGS5 case, a digital art book, a couple of songs from the game (Quiet's Theme and Sins of the Father), a pre-installed MGS wallpaper, and a \u00a51k coupon for MGS5 novels.\nMost of these items will go on sale 2nd September, though the extravagant NW-ZX2 Walkman isn't scheduled to launch until the end of September.",

        "title": "Nanoreactors to synthesise organic substances - EPR",
        "raw_content": "After two years of research, a RUDN chemist has developed a type of photocatalyst made from titanium dioxide to help the synthesis of organic substances\u2026\nA RUDN University chemist developed a new type of photocatalysts \u2013 nanostructures from titanium dioxide. Hollow nanocubes with ultra-thin walls act like nanoreactors and provide for 28 fold more effective organic reactions at room temperature under the influence of visible light.\nTraditional methods of manufacturing pharmaceuticals from organic substances require high pressure and temperature levels. One of the ways to make the chemical industry less energy-consuming is by using photocatalysis. Photocatalysts are able to speed up organic reactions under the influence of light under ambient conditions, that is without increasing temperature or pressure.\nTitanium dioxide is considered a prospective catalyst. However, its catalytic activity is activated only in UV light which comprises only 5 percent of sunlight. When shaped as hollow nanostructures, titanium dioxide becomes more active as a catalyst. Professor Rafael Luque, the Director of the Centre for Molecular Design and Synthesis of Innovative Compounds for Medicine together with colleagues from Iran described a new type of such structures with high photocatalytic activity: black hollow nanocubes made of titanium dioxide (BHC-TiO2).\nThe development of the new nanostructures took almost two years. The sciences created a comparatively easy approach to the design of nanostructures. The procedure consists of 4 main steps. First, the chemists prepare nanocubes made of hematite and cover them with titanium dioxide. On the next step the insides of the cubes are washed out using the solution of hydrochloric acid leaving only the thin titanium dioxide shell. The final stage is baking at 550 degrees Celsius in a hydrogen-argon atmosphere. After that the samples turn into black hollow nanocubes. The whole process takes around 2-3 days.\n\u201cThe main advantages of our structures are that they are easy to create, durable, and can be used for different purposes. BHC-TiO2 can be used as a photocatalyst, for water purification to accelerate the decomposition of pollutants as well as for biomass conversion Currently we are studying the application of photocatalysts in the production of organic substances,\u201d said Rafael Luque, the Director of the Centre for Molecular Design and Synthesis of Innovative Compounds for Medicine.\nThe researchers from RUDN checked the catalytic activity of several types of nanocubes \u2013 one-piece ones made of titanium dioxide, hollow ones, and baked black hollow BHC-TiO2 ones \u2013 in an experiment involving benzimidazole synthesis. The derivatives of this substance are in high demand in the pharmaceutical industry. Some samples were exposed to visible light from a regular halogenic lamp, and some \u2013 to UV radiation.\nBHC-TiO2 particles showed high catalytic activity under both types of exposure. 86% of the initial substance was processed under the influence of visible light, which is 28 times more than in the experiment with one-piece (non hollow) titanium dioxide cubes. Chemists believe that this activity of the new structures is due to their hollowness, large surface area, and porous ultra-thin walls. All these properties make nanocubes work as nanoreactors, i.e. reflect and scatter light and easily absorb organic substances, creating a medium for effective reactions inside the cubes. Ti3+ ions formed on the surface of nanocubes in the course of baking also play an important role. RUDN scientists believe they facilitate electron transfer making the whole structure absorb visible light (and not just the UV light like pure titanium dioxide).\nThe experiments proved a high durability of the nanoreactors: even after the sixth use, the structures kept their form and almost all Ti3+ ions on their surface. Therefore, BHC-TiO2 can be used to carry out at least 7 organic reactions without any loss in their catalytic activity.\nThe study was published in Applied Catalysis B: Environmental.\nAnalytical techniques, Manufacturing, Processing, Production, Research & Development (R&D)\nProfessor Rafael Luque\nGenetically modified viral injection could treat metastatic melanoma\nPeak Scientific has launched its first high-flow hydrogen carrier gas generator.

She is survived by her only daughter, Gabrielle; son-in-law, Andr\u00e9; grandchildren, Jonathan and Candice; nieces and nephews in Germany; brother and sister-in-law, John (Hans) and Mary (Maria); and numerous other relatives and friends in Canada, Germany and Russia.\nLuise will be remembered for her active participation in the knitting circle at Willow Park on the Bow, contributing knit blankets to charitable endeavors. Luise and Franz married in Germany on March 7, 1953 and spent their honeymoon on the ship that would bring them to Canada to start a new life and family together. They went first to Dundurn, Saskatchewan, to reunite with Franz\u2019s uncle, then to Didsbury, Alberta, where more family was to be found, for a short time before they settled in Calgary, Alberta. She saw the city of Calgary grow from a small city, where a Sunday road trip would be to Lake Midnapore, into the bustling, busy city it is today. Luise and Franz enjoyed time tending their vegetable and flower garden, the Rocky Mountains, camping, fishing, and road trips to visit family and dear friends. They would holiday in Hawaii and Europe and wherever else their daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren could be found. She would welcome family and friends into her home with her traditional baking and cooking, in her clogs and apron.\nPrivate Celebration of life will be held, and interment will take place, on what would have been her 93rd birthday.\nIf friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to their charity of choice.\nThe family wishes to thank Calgary EMT\u2019s and the staff and volunteers at the Peter Lougheed, Foothills Hospital, and Chinook Hospice where she spent her last few weeks.",

Still, why do you think billions of dollars are spent on advertising alone, helping celebrities make fortunes out of it? Fortune 500 companies can't be stupid to just spend on something that doesn't give results. Well, it is true that word of mouth sells almost everything and is responsible for the overall success of a product or service, however, making the public aware that such product exists is the first step towards the success, and that is what advertising caters to.\nGM of the advertising division of an FMCG giant Procter & Gamble was once asked - what is the need of constantly spending on advertising when they are already an established brand for many decades? Upon which he answered that if a consumer don't see you as a brand face to face for a few days, it is likely that he would forget that you exist or may think you are out of business.

        "raw_content": "Ex-Nokia Executives to Revive MeeGo With New Smartphone\nTheir startup, Jolla, is looking to use the open-source OS to create an alternative to Apple\u2019s iOS and Google\u2019s Android.\nA startup formed by ex-Nokia engineers is looking to muscle its way into an already highly competitive and crowded smartphone market with new devices based on the MeeGo operating system that Nokia shoved aside last year in favor of Microsoft\u0080\u0099s Windows Phone OS.\nThe former Nokia employees and other MeeGo supporters have been working behind the scenes for the past year to create Jolla, the startup that company officials said will not only make smartphones based on MeeGo that will hit the market by the end of the year, but also will build up the all-important ecosystem of applications and services around them.\nJolla officials are hoping to gain traction in a market that not only includes Apple and its iPhones as well as the rash of smartphone makers that have signed onto Google\u0080\u0099s Android OS, but also a struggling Research In Motion and its BlackBerry devices as well as Nokia and its smartphones based on the Microsoft operating system.\nNokia and chip maker Intel began developing MeeGo in 2010 as a Linux-based open-source alternative to Apple\u0080\u0099s iOS and Google\u0080\u0099s Android, and as a replacement for Nokia\u0080\u0099s own fading Symbian operating system. However, early last year, Nokia CEO Stephen Elop announced that the company was abandoning MeeGo\u0080\u0094apparently unhappy with the relatively slow development of the OS\u0080\u0094in favor of Windows Phone.\nBut that didn\u0080\u0099t stop Nokia from releasing one MeeGo-based smartphone\u0080\u0094the N9\u0080\u0094which saw some strong reviews when it was released last summer. Jolla officials are hoping to revive MeeGo\u0080\u0094which Intel brought to the Linux Foundation and LiMo Foundation and rebranded as Tizen\u0080\u0094as a viable alternative to iOS and Android.\n\u0080\u009cNokia created something wonderful\u0080\u0094the world's best smartphone product,\u0080\u009d Jolla officials said in a statement. \u0080\u009cIt deserves to be continued, and we will do that together with all the bright and gifted people contributing to the MeeGo success story.\u0080\u009d\nJolla has been working on the new smartphone and MeeGo since the end of 2011, according to officials, and will incorporate aspects of the Mer Core operating system and Qt framework, as well as the startup\u0080\u0099s own user interface.\nJolla CEO Jussi Hurmola, who spent 12 years with Nokia, told the Wall Street Journal July 9 that despite the strong market position of Apple\u0080\u0099s and Google\u0080\u0099s operating systems, there is room for other platforms.\n\"With all the respect to [Apple's mobile operating system] and Android, I'm quite sure that the market is ready for something new,\" Hurmola told the Journal. \"As I see it, there are user segments that have been left unserved. \u0080\u00a6 There is this view that certain players dominate the market, but it's not really true. If we manage to hit the right notes, I'm sure market will change with us. We are not aiming to become a niche player.\"\nIn their statement, Jolla officials said the company boasts \u0080\u009ca substantial number of MeeGo\u0080\u0099s core engineers and directors\u0080\u009d among its employees, and is continuing to recruit more people with MeeGo expertise. Hurmola said about half of the company\u0080\u0099s 50 or so employees are from Nokia, and that the company is talking with potential hardware partners. He said the company, based in Finland, will need to raise about $12 million and to sell 50,000 to 100,000 of the new smartphones to break even.\nAs Jolla employees look to get their company off the ground, Nokia\u0080\u0099s struggles are continuing. The company, which lost $2 billion in the first quarter, in June announced it was cutting 10,000 jobs\u0080\u0094about 19 percent of its workforce\u0080\u0094by the end of 2013 as it looks to better compete with Apple and Google\u0080\u0099s phone partners.\nOther plans call for shuttering three manufacturing facilities and focusing on the company\u0080\u0099s Lumia line of Windows-based phones, which have received good reviews. According to Canaccord Genuity analysts in a June 5 research note, the Lumia 900 was the second best selling phone at AT&T during April and May, behind Apple\u0080\u0099s iPhone 4S. However, during those months, Nokia was the fifth best selling smartphone maker, behind Apple, Samsung, Motorola Mobility and HTC.\nPrevious Samsung Galaxy S III Exploded, But After Microwave...\nNext Intel Partners With Smartphone Maker in India: Reports",

        "raw_content": "New images reveal Birmingham's 2022 Commonwealth Games Village\nBy Simon Penfold | Birmingham | Commonwealth Games | Published: Jun 4, 2018 | Last Updated: Jun 5, 2018\nNew artist's impressions reveal what Birmingham's Commonweath Games Village will look like when it welcomes sportsmen and women from around the world in 2022.\nAn artist's impression of how the village could look\nAfter providing a temporary home for 6,500 athletes and officials during the games, the village will then be converted into 1,000 more permanent homes as the heart of a regeneration plan for the Perry Barr area of the city.\nEventually up to 3,000 new homes will be built around the north-west of Birmingham, but the housing legacy of the Commonwealth Games will provide a significant acceleration for the scheme.\nThe Games Village will include accommodation, dining, medical, transport and essential services for athletes and team officials and will be situated on a 59-acre (24-hectare) site off the A453 Aldridge Road.\nNew artist's impressions of the planned Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games Village\nThe site is the current location of the old University of Central England (UCE) and Birmingham City University (BCU) campus near Perry Barr greyhound stadium and the One Stop Shopping Centre and is just one mile from Alexander Stadium, which will play a pivotal role during the Games.\nThe competitors and officials will be housed in a mix of one and two-bed apartments as well as three and four-bed town houses.\nAfter the Games, the Village accommodation will be converted and become available as a mixture of homes for sale or rent, including some offered at social and affordable rent through the city council\u2019s Birmingham Municipal Housing Trust and In-Reach rental initiative.\nAs part of the village development, there are plans to invest in wider infrastructure in the surrounding area, including local access improvements, a proposed new bus interchange, the introduction of a SPRINT rapid bus service along the A34, and work to upgrade Perry Barr railway station.\nFirst revealing the plans for the village earlier this year, Councillor Ian Ward, leader of Birmingham City Council and chairman of the Birmingham 2022 bid team, said: \"Our proposal to bring the Games to Birmingham had a number of key strengths, including our outstanding track record of staging major sporting events, and having almost all of the competition venues in place.\n\u201cThe development of the village is therefore the largest new-build element of the Games \u2013 and will help rejuvenate Perry Barr and the wider surrounding area, meaning there will be a meaningful and lasting legacy for the people of Birmingham, in particular those living near the heart of the action in 2022.\n\u201cWe have a desperate need for high-quality housing in the city and it would have been much trickier to meet that demand if we had not been successful in our bid to host the Games.\n\u201cA major regeneration programme like this will result in some degree of local disruption in the short-term and we recognise that patience will be required, but the long-term gains will far outweigh this.\n\u201cWe are committed to engage with and involve local residents and businesses every step of the way over the next four years.\u201d\nCommonwealth Games Sport Birmingham Local Hubs News Property Birmingham entertainment Entertainment",

It truly works like magic....\nBut gratitude doesn't always come naturally. We are programmed by our society to focus on what we don't have, or on everything that's \"wrong\" with our lives.\nIt's easy to get lost in this game of endless acquiring...

        "raw_content": "Home / Get Involved / Why I Volunteer\nElizabeth Raphael\nOriginally, I came to Family Promise Metrowest to complete 40 hours of community service for my high school and I have been volunteering ever since. For the past two years, FPM has become a huge part of my entire family\u2019s life. My mother, brother, and I all got involved with the families and have developed strong relationships with many families. One of my favorite experiences was watching one of the little girls in the program learn to use a watering can. Soon the entire day room was soaked, and everyone involved laughed and laughed. This kind of reciprocal relationship is indicative of how Family Promise functions as an organization, and how rewarding it can be for a volunteer.\nLucy Sur\nI first became aware of the Family Promise Metrowest organization about two years ago through my own church, the Wellesley Hills Congregational Church. We host families for three to four weeks each year. Our congregation along with other congregations and volunteers in the area, make and serve meals and prepare rooms for families to have private space to sleep in and be together. I started as a dinner preparer and host, and now I help at the Day Center, the annual Walkathon, and the annual fall benefit. There are so many ways to volunteer!\nI had searched for a while to find a flexible volunteer opportunity that would directly help people in need living in my own community. Having met many of the families who benefit from this program as well as our very capable Board of Directors, I know I made the right choice. Volunteering with FPM has been tremendously rewarding to me and I love seeing our families bring their lives together with better job and housing opportunities!\nMy wife and I heard about Family Promise Metrowest about the same time we learned our son had a high school community service commitment, so we volunteered as a family in the hopes he would discover the joy and humility that\u2019s only found by serving others. That was almost four years ago. Our very best day volunteering was when our son told us that playing with the children at the day center was his favorite time of the week, and that he got much more than he gave from volunteering. Some people go their whole lives without ever learning that lesson, and FPM makes it easy by allowing members of the larger community to each contribute what they can. We could not possibly be more grateful.\nCarol Virshbo\nI am a member of one of the founding churches of FPM. I became active in 2008 by preparing meals, hosting dinners, and staying overnight during host weeks. It was very rewarding knowing these small sacrifices made a big difference to the families. These experiences got me hooked. I now help with fundraising events, tutoring, interview preparation, Day Center coverage, and anything else that I can assist with. My reward for volunteering is watching the families move into transitional housing and then out on their own. I love volunteering for FPM because you can do as little or as much as you want but everything that you do helps to improve the lives of our families.\nWhen I first moved to the area, I was looking for volunteer opportunities and was having difficulty finding the right placement. I then heard about Family Promise Metrowest through a friend and was welcomed with warmth and appreciation when they learned of my skills in Event Management and Human Resources. I really like the pragmatic approach FPM uses as they focus on helping families who are motivated to make a better life for themselves and their children.\nI feel really appreciated by the staff and other volunteers and have made some great friends since volunteering with FPM. I would encourage others to volunteer as there are so many opportunities\u2014from admin and IT to babysitting and event support. There is a volunteer role for anyone who wants to help as much or little as they are able.\nZachary Abrams\nI began volunteering at Family Promise to fulfill a community service requirement for my school, but it\u2019s become one of the most important parts of my life. Spending time with the children there has been one of the most rewarding things I\u2019ve ever done. Whether giving guitar lessons or taking them into the Natick park to play soccer, volunteering on Sundays has always been the part of my week that I've looked forward to the most for the past three years. I would recommend volunteering at Family Promise because it can change your outlook on life. I\u2019ve learned the rewards of service and continue to learn more and more every day from the kids.",

If I make the right move, at the time, I'll deal with the chance that on a rare occasion it might somehow turn out wrong in the end. You wouldn't then not trade Wil Venable for Andrew McCutchen the next year because it's \"possible\" Venable somehow has a better year when all is said and done...you do what is the most likely at the time and deal with the consequences at the end if for some reason that right move turns out wrong.\nThe best starting pitchers are worth, what, one win per month? Strasburg is worth 4.6 wins so far this season over 5+ months, so about one per month is fair, give or take. It makes a lot of sense to sacrifice that one win for the chance to have Strasburg for the playoffs, where the stakes are exponentially higher. And the odds of making the playoffs are greater than the odds of missing the playoffs by one win. 10 teams will make the playoffs this season and I gurantee way less than 10 will come up short by a single game. So yeah, saying it's purely results oriented is not a fair statement. The results merely prove that the incentive to have him available for the playoffs was justified.\nby bigh0rt \u00bb Fri Sep 07, 2012 4:12 pm\nI'd be interested to see if there was still such sentiment that it was a boneheaded move by Washington if they were in a tight race, or a tight Wild Card race, or not in position to make the playoffs, as most projected. It seems to me that the entire crux of the argument is that they're in first place by several games without a real threat staring at them. When that's the basis for the argument, the reality is you have no argument. Because the decision wasn't made today, it was made months and months ago when the current set of circumstances was a massive probability outlier. When you're expectation is to finish third or possibly fourth in your own division, and you've somehow managed to be in first place all year because the former division powerhouse fell apart at the seams, and the biggest off-season spenders fell apart and had a fire sale, you're thrilled to be playoff bound this year, with new expectation being that with your current core of players, it could be routine over the next several seasons. You don't risk the possibility of putting yourself in a bind next season if Strasburg finished this season at ~150 IP because in March you were anticipating winning your division as a 6:1 dog whose odds were only better than the Mets. At least the Nationals have a long standing record of playoff appearances for them to have made this decision based on.\nI'll quote this in case you missed it...\nSkin Blues wrote: the odds of making the playoffs are greater than the odds of missing the playoffs by one win. 10 teams will make the playoffs this season and I gurantee way less than 10 will come up short by a single game. So yeah, saying it's purely results oriented is not a fair statement.\nThe chances of them missing the playoffs by one game is much more slim than the chances of them making the playoffs. This was just as obvious before the season as it is now... nothing to do with results.\n95% of teams either make the playoffs, or finish far enough out that one month's worth of a pitcher wouldn't have made any difference. Last year there were two such teams. In 2010 there was one. You don't bet one being that one team. You bet one being one of the 29 that do make it or don't come close enough for it to matter.\nby benb18a \u00bb Fri Sep 07, 2012 4:40 pm\nIt doesn't matter if it's a boneheaded decision in hindsight, or not. There are so many contingencies it's not even funny. I'll liken it to the going for it on 4th and short in a questionable situation decision made by NFL head coaches. They make it, they're a genius, they don't, they're a moron and the fans are calling for their head.\nAll the results indicate, is merely that putting your chips on \"postseason with Strasburg\" vs. \"use Strasburg as much as possible to hope to squeak into the playoffs\" would have had some justification, and merit. There is no arguing that. As it stands right now, the front office made a boneheaded decision that will likely cost them a title in what is by far their best chance at one in two decades. I've already stated that failure to win the title this year, will be considered a boneheaded decision in any event other than the team easily making the playoffs this year without Stras for the first 6 weeks and losing with him. It is likely that we will not be able to see what might have been as Strasburg is shut down weeks before the playoffs and they have to trot Jackson/Detwiler out there instead of Strasburg twice a series.\nBesides, some people have the philosophy that making the playoffs fully loaded with homefield throughout is more desirable than three wildcard berths in the current format where you enter the LDS at a distinct disadvantage in the first place.\nby GiantsFan14 \u00bb Fri Sep 07, 2012 4:48 pm\nbenb18a wrote: Besides, some people have the philosophy that making the playoffs fully loaded with homefield throughout is more desirable than three wildcard berths in the current format where you enter the LDS at a distinct disadvantage in the first place.\nwhich would make regular season wins even more important because winning the division is so much more valuable than winning a wild card spot.\nWhere were all these criticisms in March? Since it was such an obvious gaffe you'd have thought that the Nats management would have come under major scrutiny at the time the decision was announced. But alas, they were not. And the reason is because people love to post-judge after the dice have been cast. Meanwhile I'll never be able to understand that notion because judging any decision under any set of circumstances other than the ones in existance at the time of the decision is stupid. And had this really been that big of a whoops, you would've seen a lot of criticism from all avenues, which conveniently didn't happen until about a month ago after a major long shot came to fruition. You make decisions based on likelihood of happenings and risk vs reward. I can't for the life of me wrap my head around an inability to at least recognize this and link it to this situation. So many Monday morning QBs.\nbigh0rt wrote: Where were all these criticisms in March?

Doens't mean it wasn't a mistake. If there was a dozen page thread on every mistake that teams make throughout the season there'd be a thousand threads in here. This particular mistake turned out to hurt them pretty significantly, hence all the attention.\nbigh0rt wrote: judging any decision under any set of circumstances other than the ones in existance at the time of the decision is stupid ...

In 95% of outcomes, nothing is lost by not having Strasburg pitching in April.\nbigh0rt wrote: I can't for the life of me wrap my head around an inability to at least recognize this and link it to this situation.\nEverybody recognizes that they weren't favourites to make the playoffs, but they had a decent chance with that rotation, which before the season was arguably one of the ebst in baseball. In my opinion this mistake is exacerbated by the fact that there's no evidence to suggest shutting him down will even prevent injury in 2013 anyway.\nby jorgesca \u00bb Fri Sep 07, 2012 5:39 pm\n[quote=\"bigh0rt\"]judging any decision under any set of circumstances other than the ones in existance at the time of the decision is stupid ...

In 95% of outcomes, nothing is lost by not having Strasburg pitching in April.[/quote]\nI think you are not factoring in the effect of Strasburg not pitching 180 innings and pitching only 150 if they don't make the playoffs, what if he gets a 15 DL stint, then has a start pushed back that's 125 innings pitched total in 2012 and now leaves you in 2013 with the same question, when 2013 is the year they are supposed to or they were ready to contend, not 2012.\njorgesca\nputting the opinion of the limit aside and accepting that they set it at 180 ip and maintained since the fall that they would adhere to it, you run the risk in \"saving\" strasburg innings dring the regular season so that he can pitch in the playoffs, the tremendous pre-season likelihood that they wouldn't make the playoffs. You say 95% chance they'd make it or not sans the 1 Game, but the reality of that is their pre-season likelihood of not making it massively outweighed their chances of making it. If they \"save\" him and don't make the playoffs, as has been pointed out, you leave strasburg ~150 IP, and the likelihood that they don't jump him to 200 IP next season, and the cycle potentially repeats itself next season, because as we've already established, they're being overly cautious with strasburg, whether we agree or disagree with the limit. In march they were far from being considered as having a decent chance to make the playoffs, as I have mentioned over and over that they were expected to finish fourth intheir own division.\nAlso, in march, as I mentioned previously, Washington wasn't considered as having a Top NL rotation because Gio was not expected by most to perform to this level and there was much speculation that Wsh would come to regret trading for him. Again, this is based on the circumstances at the time, not on what has since transpired.",

        "raw_content": "How The U.S. Almost Had Universal Child Care (Twice)\n76 years ago, the U.S. had a government-funded universal child care system. Can it ever happen again?\n[Photo: Gordon Parks/Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, FSA/OWI Collection, [LC-DIG-fsa-8d30785]\nDay care costs more than college tuition in most states in America.\nThis high cost often ends up being close to or more than the take-home pay of many parents, and thanks to the persistent gender pay gap, that parent is most often the mom. This means that more women are quitting their jobs or scaling back their hours after they have children. On average, professional women lose around $11,000 a year, thanks to the gender pay gap, which is also the average annual cost of child care in the U.S., and after decades of decline and a drop to 23% in 1999, the share of stay-at-home mothers rose to 29% in 2012.\nBut it hasn\u2019t always been this way.\n1940s: The Economy Needed Women Working And Women Needed Child Care\nSeventy-six years ago, the U.S. had a government-funded child care system for working parents. In response to the demands of the defense industries leading up to and during World War II, Congress passed the Defense Housing and Community Facilities and Services Act of 1940. The law funded public works, including child care centers, in communities with defense industries. Families were eligible for child care for up to six days a week, including summers and holidays, and parents paid the equivalent of just $9\u2013$10 a day in today\u2019s dollars. During the less than 10-year run, these government-run daycare centers served more than 100,000 children from families of all incomes.\nThere was a need for subsidized child care because, as we know, for the first time in U.S. history, both men and women were being encouraged to enter the workforce. In 1940, when the law was passed, only 28% of women were working, but by 1945, more than 34% of women were in the workforce. And the government realized that with two parents working outside the home, it was a social responsibility to provide affordable (and high-quality) child care, just as it\u2019s a social responsibility to provide free public school for older children. But aside from that, there was also an economic motivation for the government to subsidize child care: It needed women in the workforce, just as the economy does now.\nNew Britain, Connecticut. A child care center, opened September 15, 1942, for 30 children, aged 2 to 5, of mothers engaged in war industry.Photo: Gordon Parks/Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, FSA/OWI Collection, [LC-DIG-fsa-8d30790]\nYou can guess what happened next. After World War II ended, the defense jobs dried up, and women were largely forced out of (or chose to leave) the workforce. In fact, more than half of the women drawn into the workforce by the war left at the end of the 1940s. And with those jobs went the subsidized child care. It would be decades before Congress would pass another universal child care bill.\n1970s: A Threat To \u201cTraditional Family Structures\u201d\nIn 1971, Congress passed the Comprehensive Child Development Act on a bipartisan vote. The act established a network of nationally funded, locally administered child care centers that would provide education, nutrition, and medical services. Minnesota Senator Walter Mondale viewed the measure as a first step toward national, universal child care. The centers would be open to all on a sliding-scale basis, meaning that unlike most other child care initiatives we\u2019ve seen in more recent years, it would help ease the burden on child care costs on middle class and poor families alike. The amount that Congress authorized for the program would have made a real difference\u2014in today\u2019s dollars, it was the equivalent of five times the 2012 federal budget for Head Start.\nThe lack of quality, affordable day care is arguably the most significant barrier to full equality for women in the workplace.\nDespite early support from officials in his administration, President Nixon vetoed the bill because of conservatives\u2019 worries that subsidized child care would undermine traditional breadwinner-homemaker family structures. The veto also came as the Cold War raged, when fears of a communist approach to social services were at their height.\nToday: Falling Far Behind Our Peers\nWe have moved away from the specter of communism, but many Americans still associate social programs like universal health care and child care as something found only in socialist countries. Many Scandinavian countries have long had national paid parental leave programs as well as guaranteed child care for all children over a year old.\nBut it\u2019s not just a smattering of Nordic countries that do: All of the United States\u2019s developed peers have far better paid parental leave policies as well as generous child care benefits provided through a combination of government services, unions, and employer funding (and to a much smaller extent, paid for by the parents themselves). To put it in perspective, a 2011 report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) found that two-earner families in the U.S. pay more than double for child care than almost every other country on the list, including Germany, Australia, France, and Greece.\nAlmost 70% of women with children under 18 work outside the home.\nIn the 45 years since the Comprehensive Child Development Act was defeated, the issue of universal child care has never been brought up in a serious way again. President Obama has mentioned the issue (or parts of it) several times over the years, most notably in 2013, when he presented a proposal for a 10-year, $75 billion investment in universal pre-kindergarten for all 4-year-olds. While that measure never passed (the investment would have been financed by higher cigarette taxes, which met political resistance), more than half of U.S. states have since raised their own funds for state government\u2013funded pre-K.\nBut while the option to take care of and educate children for one year before they start elementary school certainly has its advantages, a patchwork state-by-state system turns this sort of essential care into luck of the draw. It also does nothing for the first four years of a child\u2019s life.\nThat period is a critical time for development and sets children on the path to the types of adults they will become. According to \u201cThe Hell of American Day Care\u201d by Johnathan Cohn, published in The New Republic in 2013, researchers have discovered that what happens in the first few years of life affects the architecture of a child\u2019s brain in ways that shape both intellectual abilities and behavior. \u201cKids who grow up in nurturing, interactive environments tend to develop the skills they need to thrive as adults,\u201d reports Cohn.\nOur Lingering Denial\nSince the 1940s, the U.S. has done next to nothing to care for children under 4. There are few programs aimed at the very poor: Head Start, which began in the 1960s with preschool-age children, now offers some measure of assistance to children starting when they\u2019re babies, but is mostly limited to those in foster care or who are homeless. There is also a child care tax credit (which Obama has also tried unsuccessfully to raise during his tenure), but it maxes out at $1,000 (or about 9% of the average cost of day care in the U.S.), and only low-income parents qualify.\nBut as we saw in the 1940s, the government is capable of agreeing on subsidized child care when it\u2019s obvious that it\u2019s a priority in order to keep women in the workforce. Many signs point to that time being long overdue. The need for child care is a permanent reality in the U.S.: According to the Department of Labor, 57% of women work (a percentage nearly equal to men), and almost 70% of women with children under 18 work outside the home.\nPart of the problem seems to be that while the majority of mothers work outside their homes, we still have trouble accepting that the changed landscape of the American family should have also come with a change in how the country views the responsibility of child care.\nOf course, the first argument against government-subsidized child care is that caring for one\u2019s children is a personal responsibility, and the burden shouldn\u2019t fall on the shoulders of those who choose not to have children. Yet we are comfortable paying for many social programs that may never benefit us directly: Social Security, pensions, public housing, public schools, libraries, health care. As Cohn points out in his article:\nChild care is the major unfinished part of that project. The lack of quality, affordable day care is arguably the most significant barrier to full equality for women in the workplace. It makes it more likely that children born in poverty will remain there. That\u2019s why other developed countries made child care a collective responsibility long ago.\nFrance can serve as a good example of what that \u201ccollective responsibility\u201d looks like. There, quality child care for infants through toddlers is subsidized by the government, and families pay based on a sliding scale. Unsurprisingly, 80% of French women work. The cost? The French government devotes about 1% of GPD to child care, more than twice as much as the United States does.\nWithout intervention, the problem of child care costs in the U.S. will only get worse. According to a Bloomberg report last August, weekly day care costs for children 5 years old and younger rose almost 50% between 1990 and 2011, and the fertility rate in the U.S. is on the rise as millennials enter their prime childbearing years (in 2014 the total number of births in the U.S. increased for the first time since 2007). More births mean an increased demand for day care, which will continue to drive costs up.\nBut investing in child care isn\u2019t just crucial to keep women in the workforce (which has proved to be good for business: an even gender split at one company contributed to a 41% increase in revenue), it\u2019s also imperative to the overall health of the economy. From The New Republic:\nJames Heckman, the Nobel-winning economist, has calculated that, in the best early childhood programs, every dollar that society invests yields between $7 and $12 in benefits. When children grow up to become productive members of the workforce, they feed more money into the economy and pay more taxes. They also cost the state less\u2014for trips to the E.R., special education, incarceration, unemployment benefits, and other expenses that have been linked to inadequate nurturing in the earliest years of life. Two Fed economists concluded in a report that \u201cthe most efficient means to boost the productivity of the workforce 15 to 20 years down the road is to invest in today\u2019s youngest children\u201d and that such spending would yield \u201ca much higher return than most government-funded economic development initiatives.\u201d\nThe crushing cost of child care for most U.S. families has only been mentioned in passing by the Democratic candidates, and while he made a nod to it in his final State of the Union address last week, President Obama seems to have dropped the issue from his end-of-term agenda. All of the Democratic presidential candidates have said that , but none have made serious mention of tackling the financial burden that rests on working parents\u2019 shoulders for a much longer period of time.\nUniversal child care doesn\u2019t have to be the polarizing political issue that it\u2019s become. Most Americans would agree it\u2019s important that women stay in the workforce, that company profits and the economy grow, and that the next generation of workers grow up to be healthy and productive. There are plenty of viable, individual solutions for each of those issues, but only one that\u2019s been shown to tackle all three, and it\u2019s slipped through our fingers twice. Perhaps the third try\u2019s the charm.",

        "raw_content": "The Secret Life of the CEO: Is the Economy Just Built to Flip?\nHere\u2019s the truth: The problem isn\u2019t the market\u2019s rise or fall. The problem is people who react to events, rather than seek to create something great.\nBy Jim Collins long Read\nDuring the go-go days of the late 1990s, when many business thinkers found themselves seduced by the idea that everything is new in the new economy, Jim Collins marched to a different drummer. Hiding away in \u201cmonk mode\u201d at his management laboratory in Boulder, Colorado, he continued his lifelong quest to discover the timeless principles that make enduring great companies.\nThe former Stanford faculty member takes a data-driven, long-term view of the arc of business. His two best-selling books, Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies (HarperBusiness, 1994) and Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap . . . and Others Don\u2019t (HarperBusiness, 2001), are both products of years of painstaking research. Collins insists that we need to look at performance over time in order to evaluate a leader\u2019s lasting contribution.\nIn a transcribed conversation, which Collins then edited, Fast Company asked the key questions about CEOs, companies, and our own work lives: How did we get into this mess in the first place? Are all CEOs crooks? What will it take to get business back on track? And what can each of us do to make a difference?\nJim Collins answers below.\nThe problem: the built-to-flip economy\nSitting in my rocking chair, reading in the New York Times and USA Today about the latest round of corporate scandals, I found myself confronted with a problem: Under what heading should I file all of the articles piling up on my floor? I\u2019m an incorrigible clipper, with cabinets full of articles taken from papers dating back 100 years.\nI had problems with my clippings. At first, I filed them under company names: Enron, WorldCom, Qwest. But then there were articles about the widespread abuse of executive compensation, failed acquisitions, deposed CEOs, and dotcom hangovers. Finally, I started labeling most articles under the simple word \u201cFlip\u201d \u2014 a file I created after my \u201cBuilt to Flip\u201d article appeared in the March 2000 issue of Fast Company.\nHere\u2019s what I realized: All of those stories were connected by one underlying theme: the built-to-flip ethos. I began to see that the dotcom IPO bubble was just one particular strain of a larger pattern, a reflection of a deeper trend in American corporate culture. We didn\u2019t just have a built-to-flip IPO bubble; our entire business culture had become a version of built to flip. We became a built-to-flip economy, perhaps even a built-to-flip society.\nConsider Enron in this light. I view Enron as the blue-suit, corporate-America version of built to flip. Just like the dotcom excesses, Enron used the capital markets to increase the price of a share \u2014 independent of the underlying value of that share \u2014 so that a few people could cash out at that inflated price before the markets pounded the price back down to the true value of the share. It\u2019s essentially the same idea as starting a dotcom that has minimal current value, taking it public, and cashing out before the game is up \u2014 albeit with more nefarious overtones.\nThe issue here isn\u2019t just one of fraud and corruption. The issue is an entire built-to-flip mind-set: opportunists who created a significant delta between short-term share price and long-term share value and then cashed out before the gap could close.\nIt was popular to speak about the 1990s as the greatest wealth-creation moment in history. In reality, it was just as much a period of wealth transference on a grand scale. One group of people simply transferred wealth to themselves at the expense of another group of people. A whole generation saw it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get in, get theirs, and get out before the bubble burst. They saw it not just as an opportunity, but also as an entitlement. And we are paying the price today.\nThe driver: a disproportionate number of conscious opportunists\nA confluence of historical events made all of this possible. We had a 20-year bull market that moved huge amounts of capital into retirement accounts. Multiply that change by the baby boom, and you\u2019ve got two big variables compounding each other. Now add in the vastly increased use of equity and stock options, and it all adds up to a bull-market bubble \u2014 and a huge opportunity. But businesspeople responded to that opportunity in four different ways.\nAt one end of the continuum were the self-directed people. For them, none of this was important. They just went about the daily tasks of building a successful enterprise: trying to build sustainability, create innovations that make a contribution, and add value. They were out there in places like Minnetonka, Minnesota, quietly going about their work. These were also the people who, when confronted with an environment that asked them to breach their values, refused to participate (akin to those who refused to shock the \u201clearner\u201d with intense electrical jolts in the famous Stanley Milgram experiments, despite the fact that 65% of the test subjects did so).\nA bit further along the continuum, we encounter the malleable masses. These were the people who, in the presence of an opportunity to behave differently, got drawn into it, one step after another. If you told them 10 years ahead of time, \u201cHey, let\u2019s cook the books and all get rich,\u201d they would never go along with it. But that\u2019s rarely how most people get drawn into activities that they later regret. When you are at step A, it feels inconceivable to jump all the way to step Z, if step Z involves something that is a total breach of your values. But if you go from step A to step B, then step B to step C, then step C to step D . . . then someday, you wake up and discover that you are at step Y, and the move to step Z comes about that much easier.\nSocial psychologists call this process \u201ccommitment and consistency.\u201d In Milton Mayer\u2019s essay, \u201cThey Thought They Were Free,\u201d he explains the process this way: A farmer never notices the corn growing minute by minute. But if he stays in the field long enough, he wakes up one day to discover that it has grown over his head. The people who make up the malleable masses weren\u2019t bad at the outset. But through a series of gradual steps, they ended up in bad situations \u2014 in over their heads.\nThe third category consists of the conscious opportunists. An ex-student of mine told me, \u201cI knew it was a momentary gold rush that would someday come to an end and that I had one chance to get in and out before the whole thing crashed.\u201d But here\u2019s the litmus test: If it weren\u2019t for all of the spectacular opportunity, how many people would have been drawn into doing what they were doing? It might be accurate to call something a \u201conce-in-a-lifetime opportunity,\u201d but that does not make it a reason to participate. Creative, passionate people who invent work of real value will have many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.\nAt the far end of the continuum were the architects of evil. Just as there are heroic leaders who elevate others to a higher level, there are also evil leaders who take people into darkness. They understand the power of A to B, B to C, C to D, and Y to Z, and they use that psychological mechanism to create situations where otherwise-good people participate in awful things. Those people are frequently charismatic characters whom people want to believe. And that only serves to make them more dangerous.\nThe group that grew disproportionately in the 1990s was not the architects of evil, but rather the conscious opportunists. The architects of evil have always existed in our economic system, and \u2014 given the right circumstances \u2014 they will emerge again. We cannot legislate them out of the system; we can only throw them in jail when they emerge. (And they should certainly go to jail for an amount of time that is proportionate to the scale of their damage to society.) But we shouldn\u2019t design our economic system in lurching reaction to the architects of evil.\nOne change that would certainly help would be to index stock options to the market and to prohibit stock options from being cashed out for at least 10 years after they are issued. That one change would get many of the problem executives off the bus \u2014 the flippers would choose to leave, the builders would stay \u2014 and help alleviate the destructive confusion between the concepts of share price and share value. It would also help eliminate the destructive sense of entitlement that infected our economic system: Too many people got the idea that they \u201cdeserved\u201d entrepreneurial rewards without taking entrepreneurial risks.\nThe way out: creators vs. reactors\nHere\u2019s the essential truth of our current situation: The real problem has stayed the same, regardless of the direction of the market. First we went through a spiraling-up phase, and people lost their bearings as they got caught up in the great melee of opportunity. Now we\u2019re in a downward spiral, and people have lost their bearings in a scramble of uncertainty. It\u2019s the exact same pattern in reverse: people merely reacting to circumstances, rather than doing anything fundamentally creative.\nThe distinction isn\u2019t between a market that\u2019s going up and a market that\u2019s going down. It\u2019s between people who are fundamentally creators and people who are only reactors, who take their cues from the outside world.\nIf you did a word search across my research materials on the greatest company builders of the past 100 years, you would find almost no mention of \u201ccompetitive strategy.\u201d Not that those builders had no strategy; they clearly did. But they did not craft their strategies principally in reaction to the competitive landscape or in response to external conditions and shocks. Without question, they kept a wary eye on the brutal facts.The fundamental drive to transform and build their companies was internal and creative. It didn\u2019t matter whether they faced a crisis (as did Thomas J. Watson Sr. at IBM, who never resorted to layoffs in the Great Depression) or whether they faced calm (as did Walt Disney when he conceived of Disneyland). The leaders who built enduring great companies showed a creative inside-out approach rather than a reactive outside-in approach. In contrast, the mediocre company leaders displayed a pattern of lurching and thrashing, running about in frantic reaction to threats and opportunities.\nIf I could bring all of my students back into the classroom, I would remind them of David Packard\u2019s admonition that in the long run, \u201cmore companies die of indigestion than starvation.\u201d If a company focuses on making creative contributions that fall in the middle of three intersecting circles \u2014 what it is passionate about, what it can be the best in the world at, and what best drives a sustained profitable economic engine \u2014 then growth will likely follow.\nThe research that went into my books showed that mediocre companies tend to focus on growth for growth\u2019s sake, whereas truly great companies focus on making creative, profitable contributions that are squarely focused on those three circles. Regardless of whether the market is up or down, great companies that adhere to those circles are, in the long run, likely to have more growth than they can handle \u2014 indigestion, not starvation. The same holds true for creative people who discover what they are passionate about, what they are genetically encoded for, and how they can build an economic engine based on their contributions. Those who operate at the intersection of all three circles are more likely to face the problem of too much opportunity in their lives, not too little.\nThe Important Distinction The stock market may go up \u2013 or down. But according to Jim Collins, that isn\u2019t the key distinction. Regardless of the market, what matters is whether you are a creator who is internally driven or a reactor who takes cues from the outside.\nInternally driven, externally aware\nPursues creative strategy\nDiscovers genetic talents and applies them\nBuilds an economic engine to get things done\nMany once-in-a-lifetime opportunities\nGrowth follows from creative contribution\nAmbitious first and foremost for the work\nFocuses on building relationships\nValues self-improvement for its own sake\nSets 10-to-25-year audacious goals\nCore values inform all efforts\nSeeks self-actualization Reactor\nExternally driven, without intrinsic passion\nPursues competitive strategy\nAgenda of competence set by the outside world\nGets things done to make a lot of money\nFew once-in-a-lifetime opportunities\nSeeks growth for growth\u2019s sake\nAmbitious first and foremost for self\nFocuses on transactions\nDriven largely by comparison to others\nFive years is long-term\nNothing is sacred; expedience rules\nSeeks success\nThe question: Which side are you on?\nAbraham Maslow defined self-actualization as the process of discovering what you were made to do and making a commitment to do it with excellence. That is what the three circles are all about: making self-actualization work in a capitalist society. No one ever reached self-actualization simply by seizing a bubble moment to get rich and retire. Similarly, no one ever self-actualized by taking the cockroach strategy of just hunkering down and trying to survive until difficult times passed.\nThere are, of course, no guarantees. Luck is always a factor, and the dice can roll against you. But that does not change the fact that those who go about their lives and work with the passion to create and build in pursuit of self-created goals are the only ones who will find meaning in the end \u2014 regardless of whether the dice roll their way. The fact of the matter is that life is short, and we only carry to our graves the inner integrity of our efforts. Only we know how we lived our lives, whether we cut corners, whether we did anything of value \u2014 or whether we took the built-to-flip approach to life.\nSidebar: The Journalist: Everyone Has Been Discredited\nMeet Charles Lewis\nIn 1989, Charles Lewis left the world of high-profile broadcast journalism to invent the world of what he calls \u201cpublic-service journalism.\u201d Lewis, who was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship in 1998, founded the Center for Public Integrity in 1990 to pursue investigative projects that the major media were neglecting. During the past 12 years, the center has produced 10 books and more than 100 reports documenting the often-sordid ties between big money and big politics.\nIsn\u2019t the problem limited to a few bad apples?\nNot unless the whole world is your orchard. That\u2019s a lot of apples, folks! More companies are restating their earnings now than at any time in U.S. history. And by the way: They have dumped hundreds of millions of dollars into the political process to weaken any laws that might exist to curb the excesses.\nSo Washington is complicit in this?\nYou can\u2019t look at Wall Street without looking at Washington. They\u2019re joined at the hip. Congress and the politicians were the enablers for those scandals. They needed the campaign cash. The corporate executives needed certain favors. Everyone got what they wanted \u2014 except, of course, investors and the public. Ninety-six percent of Americans don\u2019t contribute to political campaigns at all. The wealthiest elements of this country are sustaining and sponsoring the political process and its actors. What that means is that you get a government that\u2019s essentially bought and paid for by the powerful interests affected by those decisions.\nIf that\u2019s right, where\u2019s the outrage?\nThe outrage is muted, because you don\u2019t know who to trust. In 1994, we had Newt Gingrich\u2019s Contract with America and a new Congress coming to Washington to turn the city on its ear. In their first six months in office, those new members took more campaign money than any previous freshman class in the history of the Congress. We know what happens to Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. It becomes a Stephen King movie.\nDo people not want to hear the truth?\nSometimes it does feel like we\u2019re trying to force people to drink castor oil. People don\u2019t really want to get bad news. But information is power. Until you find out the truth, you can\u2019t dig yourself out of the mess.\nWho can people trust today to tell us the truth?\nIt\u2019s a very short list. Everyone has been discredited. We have a situation where we don\u2019t trust our government or our capitalist system. The level of distrust right now is probably unparalleled since the 1930s.\nIs there a way to rebuild that trust?\nYou set tough standards, and you actually \u2014 what a concept! \u2014 enforce them. You have transparency. You have openness. You have a set of rules. You enforce those rules. I\u2019m sorry if it sounds old-fashioned, but it\u2019s time for leadership. In the boardroom. In the Oval Office. On Capitol Hill. Our leaders can\u2019t think it\u2019s just a few bad apples. They have to take this very seriously and exert new standards in our society. In that sense, it\u2019s an exciting moment. We didn\u2019t talk like this a year ago.\nSidebar: The Investigator: People Will Be Going to Jail\nMeet Eliot Spitzer\nNew York attorney general Eliot Spitzer fits the part of the crusading cop. Last May, his crusade won national notoriety when Merrill Lynch agreed to pay a $100 million fine to atone for the misleading recommendations made by its research analysts.\nSpitzer\u2019s office is still sniffing out conflicts of interest among Wall Street\u2019s analysts and bankers, focusing for the moment on the analysts who are covering failed telecom companies such as WorldCom and on bankers\u2019 practice of allotting initial-public-offering shares to favored clients.\nWhat kind of financial crimes are you investigating?\nThere are two sets of crimes. One is the gamesmanship of CEOs with the numbers. That is elementary fraud. That crime originated in the field, driven by CEOs who wanted to trigger their options or hit unrealistic numbers. They fabricated numbers. That\u2019s old-fashioned stuff. The crime that originated on Wall Street was a result of the conflicts and tensions that exist when you have that many decision makers and that much money floating around. The analysts, the investment bankers, the underwriters \u2014 there was an ease with which money could be shifted and markets could be pumped.\nWall Street\u2019s stock research has been corrupt for years. Why hasn\u2019t anything been done before?\nWhen the market was going up, there was less pain, so there weren\u2019t as many complaints. Plus, there were checks and balances that used to exist in the corporate context. You had outside auditors, directors, regulators, shareholders. Every one of those checks fell prey to the notion that things were going so well, no one needed to pay attention. The ease with which people made money masked the underlying tensions. It\u2019s when everything falls apart that people start questioning the system.\nSo the solution is for those people to pay attention?\nThe solution must involve all market participants. It requires a renewed sense of ethics at every level. It means that CEOs can\u2019t simply tell their investment bankers, \u201cFire this analyst,\u201d if a report isn\u2019t favorable. It means that the president of the investment bank has to have the willpower to say, \u201cWe\u2019re not going to change our analyst report just because you\u2019re significant banking clients.\u201d And mutual funds have to tell their investment bankers, \u201cWe expect more of you.\u201d I\u2019ve been telling the trustees of pension funds, \u201cHey guys, it\u2019s your money. You are ultimate fiduciaries, and you have the capacity because of your leverage to set the rules.\u201d I think we\u2019ll see an awakening on the part of all of those overseers and an end to the era of the imperial CEO.\nWhere will all of this stand a year from now?\nPeople will be going to jail. Individual criminal liability will be found. Just as important, there will be a rewriting of the rules. Our inquiries and those of others will continue, and the new rules will emerge as a function of individual settlements. Ultimately, we\u2019ll see a new structure within which analysts have to operate and new rules about IPO issuances.\nDo the people who run Wall Street realize now that they\u2019ve been doing something wrong?\nI\u2019m not sure. I do believe there is a renewed attention to the underlying ethical problems posed by the conflicts of interest on Wall Street. But I don\u2019t know whether there is any sense of remorse for wrongdoing.\nby Keith H. Hammonds",

The FDA has determined that your website www.vitalmaxvitamins.com offers a product for sale that is intended to diagnose, mitigate, prevent, treat or cure the Flu Virus in people. This product has not been approved or cleared by FDA for use in the diagnosis, mitigation, prevention, treatment, or cure of the Flu Virus. This product is called BodyGuard and is labeled as a dietary supplement. The marketing of this product violates the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDC Act). 21 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 331, 352. We request that you immediately cease marketing unapproved and uncleared products for the diagnosis, mitigation, prevention, treatment, or cure of the Flu Virus.\nSome examples of the claims on your website www.vitalmaxvitamins.com that evidence that the product you offer is intended for the use(s) described above include:\nOn the webpage titled, \u201cBody Guard\u201d:\n\u201cBoost Your Immune System and Fight Cold and Flu - Naturally!\u201d\nOn the webpage titled, \u201cWhy In the World Are You STILL Catching Cold and Flu Bugs?\u201d (http://www.vitalmaxvitamins.com/lp/2012/bodyguard/?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=BGLP1PR#order2), which offers the Body Guard product for sale, we note the following claims:\n\u201cWhy in the World Are You STILL Catching Cold and Flu Bugs?\nJust recently I was \u2026 astounded by the amount of wheezing\u2026sniffling\u2026and coughing that I had to endure during my airplane flight! One year ago I would have walked off that plane certain that within days I would succumb to some sort of virus or flu. But today, it\u2019s a whole new story.\nNow available to the general public is a revolutionary immune booster \u2026 This all-natural remedy contains a combination of nutrients so potent, it can help shield you from a variety of bacteria, germs and viruses that would normally put you out of commission.\nThis miraculous remedy is called BodyGuardTM and it happens to be the single most powerful formula to help guard your health! \u2026 This unique formula sends germs packing in a way that antibiotics and drugs never could.\nIn fact, the healing nutrients in these tiny tablets [BodyGuardTM] can help you:\no Fight colds, infections and respiratory problems.\no Safeguard you from deadly flu viruses.\no Relieve you from stuffy noses, chills, hoarseness and other cold symptoms!\u201d\n\u201cBodyGuard\u2122 also contains nutrients such as \u2026 Pau d\u2019Arco extract. This South American rainforest herb has superior antiviral properties that virtually wipe out cold and flu bugs! What\u2019s more, BodyGuard\u2122 even contains Elderberry extract\u2014a nutrient proven to help clobber most flu and viruses.\nAnd scientific studies prove it\u2019s true:\nOne study published in the winter 1995 issue of the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine showed that 93% of influenza-B flu patients given elderberry extract in supplement form were almost completely symptom-free within two days!\nIn a second study published in the International Journal of Medical Research, 90% of the study participants had influenza A. Patients who took this extract recovered in an average of 3 days, versus 7 days for the placebo group!\u201d\n\u201cAll you need to do is simply take a couple capsules of BodyGuard\u2122 everyday and you can freely travel anywhere without thinking twice about what germ\u2026bacteria\u2026virus\u2026or flu that might invade your body! I\u2019m so sure you\u2019ll be spending fewer days in bed and more days playing golf or cards that I\u2019m committed to offering you this 100% money-back risk-free guarantee!\u201d\n\u201c [F]or just pennies per day, you\u2019ll protect yourself from nasty germs, bacteria and viruses that can \u2026 leave you unprotected against deadly viruses and flu or worse!\u201d\nYour products are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced uses and, therefore, these products are \u201cnew drugs\u201d under section 201(p) of the Act [21 U.S.C. \u00a7 321(p)]. New drugs may not be legally marketed in the U.S. without prior approval from FDA as described in section 505(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. \u00a7 355(a)]. FDA approves a new drug on the basis of scientific data submitted by a drug sponsor to demonstrate that the drug is safe and effective.\nFurthermore, your product is offered for conditions that are not amenable to self-diagnosis and treatment by individuals who are not medical practitioners; therefore, adequate directions for use cannot be written so that a layperson can use these drugs safely for their intended purposes. Thus, your product is misbranded within the meaning of section 502(f)(1) of the Act [21 U.S.C. \u00a7 352(f)(1)], in that the labeling fails to bear adequate directions for use. The introduction of a misbranded drug into interstate commerce is a violation of section 301(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. \u00a7 331(a)].\nThe marketing and sale of unapproved or uncleared Flu Virus-related products is a potentially significant threat to the public health. Therefore, FDA is taking urgent measures to protect consumers from products that, without approval or clearance by FDA, claim to diagnose, mitigate, prevent, treat or cure Flu Virus in people.\nYou should take immediate action to ensure that your firm is not distributing, and does not distribute in the future, products intended to diagnose, mitigate, prevent, treat or cure the Flu Virus that have not been approved or cleared by the FDA. The above is not meant to be an all-inclusive list of violations. It is your responsibility to ensure that the products you market are in compliance with the FFDC Act and FDA's implementing regulations. We advise you to review the products you distribute, including the claims made for those products in websites, product labels, and other labeling and promotional materials, to ensure that the products you distribute are not intended for uses that render them misbranded in violation of the FFDC Act. 21 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 331, 352. Within 15 days, please send an email to FDAFLUTASKFORCECFSAN@fda.hhs.gov, describing the actions that you have taken or plan to take to address your firm's violations. If your firm fails to take corrective action immediately, FDA may take enforcement action, such as seizure or injunction for violations of the FFDC Act, without further notice. Firms that fail to take corrective action may also be referred to FDA's Office of Criminal Investigations for possible criminal prosecution for violations of the FFDC Act and other federal laws.\nIf you are not located in the United States, please note that unapproved and uncleared products intended to diagnose, mitigate, prevent, treat, or cure the Flu Virus offered for importation into the United States are subject to detention and refusal of admission. We will advise the appropriate regulatory or law enforcement officials in the country from which you operate that FDA considers your product listed above to be an unapproved or uncleared product that cannot be legally sold to consumers in the United States.\nPlease direct any inquiries concerning this letter to FDA at FDAFLUTASKFORCECFSAN@fda.hhs.gov or by contacting Katrina L. Dobbs at 240-402-5163.\nIn addition, it is unlawful under the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. \u00a7 41 et seq., to advertise that a product can prevent, treat, or cure human disease unless you possess competent and reliable scientific evidence, including, when appropriate, well-controlled human clinical studies, substantiating that the claims are true at the time they are made. See FTC v. Direct Mktg. Concepts, 569 F. Supp. 2d 285, 300, 303 (D. Mass. 2008), aff'd, 624 F.3d 1 (1st Cir. 2010); FTC v. Nat'l Urological Group, Inc., 645 F. Supp. 2d 1167, 1190, 1202 (N.D. Ga. 2008), aff'd, 356 Fed. Appx. 358 (11th Cir. 2009); FTC v. Natural Solution, Inc., No. CV 06-6112-JFW, 2007-2 Trade Cas. (CCH) P75,866, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 60783, at * 11-12 (C.D. Cal. Aug. 7, 2007). More generally, to make or exaggerate such claims, whether directly or indirectly, through the use of a product name, website name, metatags, consumer testimonials, or other means, without rigorous scientific evidence sufficient to substantiate the claims, violates the FTC Act. See In re Daniel Chapter One, No. 9239, slip op. 18-20, 2009 WL 516000 (F.T.C.), 17-19 (Dec. 24, 2009) (http://www.ftc.gov/os/adjpro/d9329/091224commissionopinion.pdf1), pet. for review den., 2010 WL 5108600 (D.C. Cir. Dec. 10, 2010).\nThe FTC strongly urges you to review all claims for your products and ensure that those claims are supported by competent and reliable scientific evidence. Violations of the FTC Act may result in legal action seeking a Federal District Court injunction or Administrative Cease and Desist Order. An order also may require that you pay back money to consumers. Please notify FTC via electronic mail at healthproducts@ftc.gov, within fifteen (15) working days of receipt of this letter, of the specific actions you have taken to address FTC's concerns. If you have any questions regarding compliance with the FTC Act, please contact Richard Cleland at 202-326-3088.\nMary K. Engle\nMichael W. Roosevelt\nVitalmax Vitamins - Close Out Letter 3/7/13",

        "title": "Film Music Site (Nederlands) - - Interview",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Imran Ahmad\nOne of your latest projects is the Zombie movie THE DEAD, how did you become involved with this movie ?\nI met the directors, Jon and Howard J. Ford, in London. Howard sent me a link to the initial trailer just before the film was going into post-production. I was so inspired by the images of the African landscape (shot on 35mm film) I composed a music demo that in my mind translated how I felt by watching the trailer. Howard and Jon were excited with the music and my ideas regarding the score and so I came onboard.\nDid the directors of the movie have a hands on approach as far as the music was concerned, or were you given a free hand to create the score ?\nThey wanted the movie to be original in every way possibly including the score. Apart from the obvious horror aspects they were very keen to convey the fragile sense of hope the main characters possessed. My initial demo was the impetus for exploring a more spiritual vibe to the music so thanks to the directors this led me to have free reign.\nHow many times did you see the movie before you began to get any fixed ideas about what type of music would be utilized and where it would be placed and how much time were you given to complete the score ?\nI watched the movie at least twice before I started to work out the broad strokes thematically. It was going to be very important to articulate the internal journey of the main characters as there was little verbal expression. I knew I wanted a strong melodic African flavour, yet universal sounding, for their inner emotions, and vocals and percussion for the outward journey and horror aspects.\nThe directors and I worked out the placement of music at the spotting session. The type of music for each cue and the overall musical arc was based on discussions of the story, internal motivations of each main character and the experience we were creating for the audience.\nAs the film was being prepared for screening to distributors there was some back and forth on the music development for some of the cues. In total it took me about 8 weeks to compose, mix and master the score. Some cues/segments that didn\u2019t make the final cut are featured in the soundtrack release.\nDid the Directors of THE DEAD have a \u201cTemp Track\u201d installed on the movie when you first viewed the film and if so did you find this helpful or was it distracting ?\nThere was no temp track installed on the movie.\nYou created a very original and also a very earthy and percussive sounding score for THE DEAD, what did you set out to achieve when you began work on the movie, was there a certain sound that you wanted to create or did the sound evolve as the project progressed ?\nIn one of my initial conversations with Howard, I described the intended music as arising from the landscape and turning the wilderness into a twisted and distorted reality. The film is shot mainly in daylight, there are bare and empty vistas and the hot sun is a huge burden causing mental and physical fatigue. It\u2019s not just the zombies, it\u2019s the environment and climate that will slow the main characters down and they must rely on their primal instincts in order to survive. So I really wanted the music to reflect this through percussion and vocals \u2013 two of the most primitive forms of music. Having said that, some of the vocals have an anguish and sorrowful sound to them. The main characters do not enjoy killing the zombies! The dead used to be human beings. The African soldier, Sgt. Daniel Dembele is emotionally distressed having to slay his own people.\nWhen you begin a project, what do you use as a starting point, do you create a theme and build the remainder of the score around this, or do you begin with maybe sounds and small phrases and passages of music and then develop the work from there ?\nI like to begin my initial musical ideas by working out the dramatic themes of the story. I then work chronologically as it feels natural to build up slowly so that the music\u2019s language for the film can develop. I develop a palette of sounds that I feel will be suitable for the score and limit myself to this range. These sounds or musical colours are drawn from the film\u2019s own reality. Also composing this way enables me to see if the musical arc is following the dramatic arc of the story.\nThe soundtrack album from THE DEAD is about to be released, what involvement did you have with the production of the compact disc ?\nSo far the soundtrack has been released as a download via iTunes and Amazon. I\u2019m really excited to be working with a record label to release a limited edition CD of the soundtrack that will be out later this year.\nYou are known as a composer and also a producer, but do you perform on any of your scores ?\nI performed some percussion such as darbuka on the score but at a basic level! Also a lot of the breath sounds are mine! I have also performed hammered dulcimer and Turkish baglama on my previous films. However, I really love working with musicians by experimenting and recording sounds that I use to assimilate into a score.\nWas your family background linked to music, by this I mean were any of your family musical in any way and what musical education did you receive ?\nMy family background has some roots in music and poetry. I do try and bring my Indian musical influences into the music I compose. For example, the live woodwind that is performed in the score are all played on Indian flutes in Indian modes.\nThe score for THE DEAD is a fusion of what sounds like orchestral elements, vocals and also synthetic or electronic sounds, what percentage of the score was performed by conventional instruments and where was the score recorded ?\nMore than one-third of the score is performed by live musicians. Some of the electronic sounds were deliberately used especially the high octave sustained notes that you hear in a few of the cues. This was meant to be a musical homage to the long synth sounds from some of the Romero zombie movies such as Dawn of the Dead. The directors really liked this idea.\nThe score was recorded at my home studio and at Spirit Studios \u2013 a professional recording studio in South London.\nStaying with THE DEAD, when you began work on the score did you have the vocalists that performed on the soundtrack in mind and write for them in particular ?\nI wanted to work with Saba Tewelde who I have previously worked with on another project. She had the exact vocal dichotomy I was looking for to represent the natural world becoming corrupted. The lower end of her vocal range has a resonance conveying a heavy feeling of sorrow and foreboding. Conversely her upper vocal range is incredibly radiant and ethereal. Her vocal tones pursue the two soldiers throughout the film giving them no peace or chance of respite!\nYou scored the short film, TO UNWILL A HEART, which was set in Syria in 946 A.D., how much research did you do before you began work on this project?\nThis short film is a taster to help kickstart a feature film about the ancient English legend of Bevois of Hampton that is almost forgotten here in England. It is a beautiful and haunting story that involves the Kings from three nations with geographic settings from England to the Middle East \u2013 it\u2019s on the scale of Gladiator! The music is atmospheric using certain key instruments from the regions such as the Turkish Baglama. I\u2018m really looking forward to doing more research when it comes to working on the feature film.\nWhat do you undertake musically away from film ?\nI am currently learning to play the sarod \u2013 this is an ancient Indian stringed instrument. Interest in this instrument has been revived internationally thanks to Soumik Datta who is a very talented classically trained sarod player. And I am grateful to have him as my teacher!\nWhat for you are the main differences between scoring shorts and working on a feature length movie apart from the obvious being the duration of the films ?\nFor me it\u2019s exactly the same process. I have been fortunate to work with some great Directors on the short films. These invaluable experiences cultivated my move into scoring for feature films.\nWhat artists or composers would you identify as being influential upon you and maybe have inspired you in your involvement with music and film ?\nThere are so many influences! The first film I went to see in the cinema was The Return of the Jedi! So naturally I have always been inspired by the music of John Williams. I am also inspired by Bernard Herrmann and Maurice Jarre, and classical composers such as Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and Sergei Rachmaninov. My other influences come from Indian classical music and indigenous folk songs.",

        "raw_content": "By Samantha Winston\nCasey goes to Italy to escape her grief, but instead she finds herself falling in love.\nAn offer to study art in Italy seems the perfect opportunity for Casey to recover from her husband\u2019s tragic death. She doesn\u2019t mean to fall in love, but then she meets Alessandro, a wealthy and charming Italian soccer sensation, and sparks fly.\nHowever, Alessandro\u2019s fans are against her, and life with a celebrity turns into a nightmare. Worse still, photographers stalk them during even their most intimate moments. Alessandro is vibrant, intellectual and desperately sexy. When they\u2019re together, everything is perfect, but Casey wants a quiet life. Alessandro is a star and his fans are many\u2026and vocal.\nWill these two different people be able to save a romance they both need but never thought they would find?\nPublisher's Note: This book was previously released elsewhere. It has been revised and reedited for release with Totally Bound Publishing.\nThe phone rang in the tiny apartment on the third floor. Casey answered it, pushing the shutters open to let in the early morning sun.\n\u201cHello, is this Casey?\u201d\n\u201cYes? Who\u2019s calling?\u201d Casey gazed at the sunrise over the tiled roofs of Torino.\n\u201cIt\u2019s me, your ex-tyrannical boss Greta.\u201d\nCasey chuckled. \u201cYou stopped being my boss when I moved to Italy, but you\u2019re still a tyrant, I\u2019m sure. Why are you calling me in the middle of the night?\u201d Casey checked her watch. \u201cIt must be one a.m. in Ohio.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m up checking the latest edition before it goes to the printers tomorrow and I\u2019d rather call from the office than on my home phone.\u201d\n\u201cIs anything wrong?\u201d Casey felt a little twinge of disquiet. \u201cEverything\u2019s all right back home, isn\u2019t it?\u201d She paced as she spoke, walking from the bedroom to the living room.\n\u201cOf course, honey. Don\u2019t worry. Listen, I have a favor to ask you. I need an interview with a soccer star. I\u2019ve set it up for you. Everything is okay. The guy said he\u2019d meet you, no problem.\u201d\nCasey stopped in the middle of the living room and frowned. \u201cWhat do you mean soccer? I don\u2019t know a thing about the sport. Can\u2019t you send Scott to do the interview? He loves sports. I\u2019d sound like an idiot. I don\u2019t have the first idea what kind of questions to ask!\u201d\n\u201cThis is a woman\u2019s magazine. We don\u2019t want a man\u2019s point of view.\u201d Greta\u2019s sigh sounded loud over the phone. \u201cYou\u2019re in Italy. You can hop on a bus and be in front of the stadium in half an hour. Another journalist would have to take an airplane, get over her jet lag, check into a hotel and cost the magazine a fortune. You know we\u2019re on a budget, Casey. So\u2026please? For a former boss in need of an article about a handsome Italian football star?\u201d\n\u201cI thought you said soccer?\u201d Casey resumed pacing. She wanted to help Greta\u2014after all, Greta had been there when she needed her and, besides being her ex-boss, she was an old friend\u2014but she\u2019d never done an interview. She\u2019d make a complete mess of it.\n\u201cThey call it football everywhere else in the world. We Americans are the only ones who call it soccer. There\u2019s a good question for you, \u2018What do you think about the word soccer?\u2019 You\u2019ll do just fine.\u201d\nCasey leaned against the window. \u201cGreta, I\u2019m in Italy to study art. And to learn, eventually, how to speak perfect Italian. I am not here to make a fool of myself posing as a journalist.\u201d\n\u201cYou still have your badge, don\u2019t you?\u201d\n\u201cWell, you gave me one,\u201d Casey said. \u201cAfter all, I did work for the magazine.\u201d\n\u201cYou do have your badge, good. I knew you\u2019d keep it. You just loved to wave that little badge around and get\u2014\u201d\n\u201cAll right, you win. For old times\u2019 sake then. Email me all the details and let\u2019s get it over with.\u201d\n\u201cThank you, honey. You\u2019ll get paid top rates, don\u2019t worry about that.\u201d\n\u201cI should hope so. Now hang up, email me and don\u2019t forget to spell the names and addresses right or I\u2019ll interview an Italian street cleaner and send you that instead. I\u2019ll make up a bunch of lies and you\u2019ll get sued.\u201d\nGreta laughed. \u201cThreats, that\u2019s what I get? I go out of my way to find you a job and that\u2019s all you can say?\u201d\n\u201cI appreciate it. Besides, my art classes don\u2019t start until September.\u201d Casey pressed her hand against the windowpane. The sun had warmed it. She pulled back and turned away.\nGreta\u2019s voice was sympathetic. \u201cI\u2019m sure you made the right decision, honey. And, you know, if you wanted to send us articles about your new life, we\u2019d print them. You could write about your neighborhood, the schools, the food and the traditions. I think our readers would like that, we could call it, \u2018An American in Torino, My Story\u2019, what do you think?\u201d\n\u201cI think I\u2019ll wait for your email. Bye, Greta. It was good hearing from you. I\u2019ll keep in touch.\u201d\nCasey put the phone back in its cradle and walked over to the window in her bedroom. The sun bathed the room in its milky light. It was early. Tucked in the eaves, the pigeons were still sleeping. She shrugged out of her bathrobe and stood naked for a moment in a patch of sunlight. Humming, she went into the bathroom and took a shower. Once dressed in jeans and a T-shirt, she put her damp hair into a chignon and wandered back to the window.\nIt was late August in Italy and most people were at the coast for their vacation. The city was almost empty\u2014there wasn\u2019t the usual hubbub of rushing cars and horn-beeping taxis rattling through the cobblestone streets around the plaza where Casey rented a small, one-bedroom apartment.\nNow the pigeons were starting to coo in the eaves. There was the faint sound of a train leaving the station, and a woman down on the street was sweeping her stoop.\nCasey leaned against the windowsill and stared out at the scene. Torino was renowned for its beauty and splendid architecture and it boasted many famous churches, parks and museums. Torino wasn\u2019t one of the quaint Italian cities with the red-tiled roofs and medieval houses. It was a magnificent city, built on the site of an ancient fortified castle on a plateau surrounded by the Piedmont Mountains. The remains of the castle and the outline of the walls were still visible, but the city had grown and sprawled around it, hiding the old outline and blurring it, so that you\u2019d never believe kings and armored knights had once ridden along the banks of the wide Po River.\nCasey hummed as she put coffee into the percolator and cut bananas onto a plate. She\u2019d go get some pastries too, fresh from the bakery just across the street where she bought bread, croissants and the crispy, buttery, almond biscuits she adored. Then she would watch TV, trying to understand the staccato Italian.\nHer phone buzzed, startling her. Before she read Greta\u2019s email, she wiped her hands on the dish towel and poured herself a cup of fresh coffee. Then she sat on her couch. The email gave her a name, the time of the interview, the address and a few sample questions. The magazine had been bombarded with letters ever since it had covered the World Cup in Paris. Most of the letters had to do with the Italian soccer team and Casey was amused to see that Greta had included a few letters in the email.\nDear Watch Out! I really enjoyed your articles about the World Cup, and the photos of the players. Who\u2019d have thought soccer babes were so cute? I\u2019m looking forward to seeing more stuff on soccer, especially about the Italian team! Where do they usually play? Where can we see them?\nDear Watch Out! I love soccer! I play on our school team, on our county team and on our club team. I want to become a pro and would appreciate some tips. Is it true that in Europe women don\u2019t play soccer?\nDear Watch Out! Please don\u2019t let the World Cup finals spell the end of soccer in your magazine. I think your sports section should give equal space to all sports, not just the American ones. What about articles on individuals? We know how the American sports superstar lives\u2014how does the rest of the world treat their stars?\nCasey jotted down a few ideas then checked the date again and swore\u2014it was for that afternoon. Damn! And the name\u2014A. Salamander, but that couldn\u2019t be right, could it? She ran her hand through her hair and muttered under her breath, then she put on her shoes and went to get her almond pastries.\nIn the panificio, the baker greeted her by name, a wide smile on his shiny face. His wife, working the cash register, squeezed Casey\u2019s hand and told her how pretty she looked that morning. Casey, still not used to the Italian show of affection and emotion, smiled, nodded and managed to escape from the crowded shop with her breakfast.\nAs Casey had soon discovered, in Italy everyone spoke to everyone\u2014on the street, in the market, in the apartment and in the neighborhood. It hadn\u2019t taken long before everyone on her street knew about the American widow who lived in number twenty-one. The women all clucked their tongues when they spoke to Casey, they put their hands on her arms and squeezed. They all knew she was an artist, and she\u2019d yet to meet an Italian who didn\u2019t profess a fondness for art. They\u2019d also learned that she wanted to go to the international cooking school and that seemed to amuse them.\n\u201cDo all Americans need to study cooking in Europe?\u201d they asked. \u201cWhat do they know? Hamburgers?\u201d\nCasey had explained that the cooking school was for recreation only, but the art was serious, and anyone who wanted a portrait painted of their children, pets or favorite scene could knock on her door. Business was brisk. She charged reasonable rates and flattered subtly. The neighborhood adopted her as their own token American. And today she had to go interview a real, live Italian soccer star.\nShare what you thought about Casey Come Home and earn reward points.",

        "raw_content": "IANS Aug 06, 2018 11:29:19 IST\nBengaluru: Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday called upon startups to develop technologies and weapons for the Indian armed forces.\n\"We (Ministry of Defence) want you to provide Indian solutions to problems faced by the armed forces. By indigenisation, India doesn't need to import many of the products that we do,\" Sitharaman told startups in this tech hub.\n\"India wants its sectors disrupted through technological advancements,\" she said at the launch of \"Defence India Startup Challenge\", a national contest for startups to develop arms and technologies for the defence sector.\"\n\"Indigenisation has been a priority for India, however, we did not indigenise sufficiently enough,\" the Minister added, addressing a gathering of 200 startups, incubators and defence officials at the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Convention Centre in the city centre.\nThrough the contest, startups, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and individual researchers and academic institutions can take part in 11 different categories of creating technologies and products that can be used by the armed forces.\nThe 11 categories in which the startups and researchers can develop products or solutions include building see-through armour for the army, development of 4G-based tactical Local Area Network for the Navy, and laser weaponry and unmanned surface and underwater vehicles development for the Air Force, among others.\nFile image of defence minister Nirmala Sitharaman. PTI\nSelect few startups will also receive a funding of up to Rs 1.5 crore through the Ministry for developing their ideas, and given access to test their products.\nAs part of the event, a Bengaluru-based firm Tonbo Imaging has been given an order to make night fire control system for Russian-made grenade launcher AGS-30.\n\"The Ministry will ensure the startups working on their ideas get the orders,\" Sitharaman said.\nNoting that unmanned drones with missiles are the envy of many countries, the Minister added it is not beyond India's capacity to develop them.\nThe Defence Ministry, on the occasion, also tied up with five business incubators to promote and support the startups, including Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship with Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Ahmedabad; Society for Innovation and Entrepreneurship with the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay; T-hub startup incubator in Hyderabad; 'Forge' incubator in Coimbatore; and IIT Madras.\n\"The contest is in line with the Innovations for Defence Excellence (IDEX) scheme announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier in April during Defence Expo in Chennai, to promote innovation and entrepreneurship in defence sector,\" an official statement said.\nThe competition will also give a fillip to the country's innovation potential and create networks for collaboration between defence sector and startups, it added.\nOver 200 startups, 50 SMEs and 12 business incubators took part in the defence-business gathering.\n\"Defence India Startup Challenge\nStartups And Defence\nTonbo Imaging",

        "raw_content": "Fighting a cancer battle and finding the strength within\nWe welcome new columnist Roisin Pelan, who will be sharing her cancer journey.\nI\u2019m Roisin Pelan, I\u2019m 36 and I live in Lea, Preston. I\u2019m here to share my story of the worst blow someone could be dealt \u2013 incurable breast cancer. You\u2019ll hopefully get to know me better as time goes on, so get comfy, make a cuppa and have a read...\nI was originally diagnosed with breast cancer, aged 32, and at 34 weeks pregnant. I had a terrible pregnancy, feeling sick, exhausted, with acupuncture for sciatica and the icing on the cake \u2013 a 3.5cm lump in my left boob. What a whopper of a blow.\nRead more: Sisters undergoing chemotherapy 11,000 miles apart launch \u2018Feel the Boobs\u2019 song to help reunite them and Roisin\u2019s baby joy rocked by breast cancer torment\nMy hormones were bonkers and I went into melt down. What on earth was I going to do? Would I die? Would my little babe be harmed? How was I going to tell my poor mum and dad? My younger brother, Sean, had cancer at the age of 18, and I\u2019d already seen the damage, the desperation and heartbreak it could cause, and now I had to put them through it all over again.\nFast forward two weeks and I was induced at 36 weeks pregnant and after a long slog of puffing and panting, crying and hoping, our little perfect human was born. My little Ivy Brown.\nI didn\u2019t know at this stage whether or not the cancer had spread, and I was just so desperate not to love my little babe. I didn\u2019t know if I would have to leave her, if she\u2019d even get to know me and I didn\u2019t want her to depend on me if I wasn\u2019t able to stay. But my heart exploded with that protective love for my little peach.\nI just knew I would fight with every single part of me to be her mummy and protect and love her always.\nSix days later, I had a mastectomy and I seethed with fear and desperation after the surgery. They\u2019d given me medication to stop me producing milk so they could operate, and after the surgery, I looked down to see a neat little scar. I could see my rib cage and my heart beating; It was weird and at the time, I really did not care. I just wanted to be alive. Cut to three weeks later and we got the incredible news that it hadn\u2019t spread. Almost four years passed, I had more surgeries, lots of checks, medication and then...\nIn January this year, the little rascal came back and this time it was advanced and they told me it was incurable. On my day of diagnosis, they asked me did I need any help with practical things? In my hysterical state, I asked what they meant and they said did I need any help making a will? I lost the plot, I grabbed at Michael\u2019s jumper (and made a snotty mess of it \u2013 sorry Michael) I begged for it not to be true, I told them I had a four-year-old and she needed me, I couldn\u2019t leave her, I just couldn\u2019t. I asked them how long I had and they couldn\u2019t answer.\nI went home and lived in hell for a week, I couldn\u2019t eat, I couldn\u2019t even be around Ivy because my heart just broke every time I looked at her little face, knowing I was going to have to break her heart and ruin her life. I wouldn\u2019t wish this pain on my worst enemy, I truly wouldn\u2019t.\nCut to 11 months later, I have done everything humanly possible to make sure I am here for my little girl. I\u2019m doing a keto diet, lots of herbal things, a trial from London, I pushed for surgery, pushed for a second opinion at the Christie and pushed for more chemo. Now for the drumroll please \u2013 my latest PET scan showed NOTHING. My new incredible oncologist told me recently they were aiming for a second cure. That\u2019s all I need, an ounce of hope and the right people fighting my corner and I feel like I can do anything.\nI\u2019ll be telling you all about the things I do to help kick its backside and, hopefully, this will open doors for others. Just that little drop of hope can create gallons of the stuff.\nI\u2019m delighted to be given the opportunity to write for you all and I\u2019m looking forward to sharing my story with you. I hope it\u2019ll give you strength when you need it, hope when you feel there\u2019s none, company when you feel alone and the fire in your belly to fight through the storm to get to your rainbow.\nLove, Roisin x",

        "raw_content": "High dose vitamin C harmful, say scientists\nRelated tags: Vitamin c\nAs food makers increasingly turn to nutrients to fortify and\n'functionalise' their food products for a growing consumer market,\na new study out of the US find that high doses of vitamin C\nincrease the severity of spontaneous knee osteoarthritis in an\nanimal model of the disease.\nFindings from researchers\u200b at the US Duke University Medical Center contradict previous short-term studies in guinea pigs and an epidemiologic study in humans that suggested vitamin C might protect against osteoarthritis, said lead investigator Virginia Kraus.\nIn the Duke study, the researchers fed guinea pigs - which, according to the scientists develop, knee osteoarthritis in a manner similar to humans - low, medium and high doses of vitamin C during an eight-month period.\nThe researchers found that high-dose guinea pigs developed more cartilage damage and had more bony spurs form in their knee joints than did the medium- and low-dose groups.\n'The researchers' examination of the spurs revealed a possible cause for the link between vitamin C and osteoarthritis. They discovered a protein in the spurs that leads to spur formation and can be activated by vitamin C,'\u200b report the scientists.\nBecause the study indicates potential drawbacks to long-term use of high-dose vitamin C supplements, adults should not supplement their dietary vitamin C levels above the recommended dietary allowance (RDA), warned Kraus. The RDA for men is 90 milligrams per day and the RDA for women is 75 milligrams per day. A diet that includes five servings of fruits and vegetables a day supplies about 200 milligrams per day of vitamin C.\n\"It is possible that brief exposure to high levels of vitamin C offers antioxidant effects with a minimum of side effects, while prolonged exposure results in deleterious effects,\" Kraus is reported as saying. A randomised, controlled clinical trial in humans would be required to definitely resolve the issue of vitamin C dosing, she added.\u200b\nLike humans, the Hartley strain of guinea pigs lack a gene for making vitamin C, leaving them dependent on vitamin C in their diet. Each of the 46 guinea pigs followed in the study were fed standard chow supplemented by a custom-made food with three different concentrations of ascorbic acid (vitamin C). The study began when the guinea pigs were 4 months old.\nThe medium dose, 30 milligrams per day, was the guinea pig equivalent of the RDA for vitamin C in humans - comparable to a person consuming five fruit and vegetable servings. The lower dose, about three milligrams per day, was the minimum necessary to prevent scurvy in the guinea pigs. The high dose was 150 milligrams per day, an amount shown to protect against surgically-induced osteoarthritis in a short-term guinea pig study. The equivalent human dose is 1,500 to 2,500 milligrams per day.\nThe antioxidant properties of vitamin C were proposed as one explanation for the earlier positive results, because oxygen radicals can degrade collagen and proteoglycan, a connective tissue protein. The vitamin has also been shown to help collagen synthesis and stimulate production of key components of collagen.\nThe Duke researchers, reports the university, did find an association between higher levels of vitamin C and increasing collagen in knee cartilage. However, there was also a strong correlation between vitamin C dose and the severity of disease, including the number and size of osteophytes, or bony spurs at the knee joint.\nThe researchers found an important protein in bone growth called active transforming growth factor beta almost exclusively in the osteophytes. The protein is known to cause joint degeneration and spur formation, and vitamin C can convert this protein from an inactive to an active state, Kraus said. This conversion means that vitamin C's ability to enhance collagen synthesis and activate transforming growth factor beta might be the reason guinea pigs fed high doses of vitamin C developed more osteoarthritis, she added.\nFull findings of the study are published in the June 2004 issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism\u200b.\nOsteoarthritis more frequently affects humans in later life and with the world's population getting older and older the ailment is likely to become more prolific. In 2000, according to the World Health Organisation there were 600 million people aged 60 and over, set to rise to1.2 billion by 2025 and 2 billion by 2050. Today, about two thirds of all older people are living in the developing world, by 2025, it will be 75 per cent. In the developed world, the very old (age 80+) is the fastest growing population group.\nCan fruit and veg in maternal diet reduce leukaemia risk in child?\nAntioxidants reduce asthma risk in children",

        "raw_content": "Ryanair Holdings plc: time to buy in or bail out?\nBilaal Mohamed | Monday, 24th July, 2017 | More on: RYA WIZZ\nAt the start of 2017 I singled out two low-cost airlines that I felt were being undervalued by the market and trading on very attractive valuations. Now six months on, how have these budget carriers fared? And perhaps more importantly, are they still worth buying?\nBrexit-induced collapse\nThe first of my start-of-year airline picks was Ryanair (LSE: RYA). Like many firms in the travel sector the Dublin-based carrier had suffered a Brexit-induced collapse, with the shares losing a quarter of their value in the two trading days immediately following the shock referendum result.\nBargain hunters duly stepped in and began\u2026\nBargain hunters duly stepped in and began buying the heavily discounted shares, eventually propelling them to record highs by April of this year. This positive momentum has continued throughout 2017, with the share price now 60% higher than a year ago.\nSome shareholders may be starting to wonder whether it\u2019s time to bail out. But I wouldn\u2019t be too hasty. Ryanair\u2019s shares continue to defy gravity as revenues and profits soar ever higher with each passing year. Clearly the company is doing something right. There may have been many controversies over the years, but by now Ryanair\u2019s customers know exactly what to expect \u2013 a no-frills travel experience for an ultra-low fare.\nIn fact, it could be argued that it consistently under-promises and over-delivers, unlike premium brand flag carriers who may leave customers disappointed when their economy class flight doesn\u2019t match up to the business class TV ads.\nLong-term appeal\nToday\u2019s Q1 results showed that Ryanair can continue to deliver strong growth, reporting a 55% rise in profits to \u20ac397 for the three months to the end of June, compared to \u20ac256m for the same period a year earlier. Revenue figures also came in higher at \u20ac1.9bn, a 13% improvement on 2016, as the number of passengers carried grew by 12% to 35m.\nThe airline did, however, caution that there could be major challenges ahead for all airlines if the UK was to leave the EU Open Skies agreement as a result of the Brexit negotiations. Nevertheless, I believe Ryanair\u2019s low-cost operating model and strong balance sheet still hold appeal for long-term investors. The valuation is not too demanding either, with a forward P/E ratio of 14.6 dropping to just 12.9 for FY2019.\nLow cost base\nAnother budget airline whose share price has taken off in recent months is Wizz Air (LSE: WIZZ). The no-frills carrier last week reported a strong start to 2017 with first quarter net profits soaring to a record \u20ac58m, a year-on-year increase of 50.4%. Total revenues also showed strong improvement, rising 29% to \u20ac469.3m, with the total number of passengers carried rising from 5.8m to 7.2m.\nWizz Air\u2019s ultra-low-cost base allows it to offer the lowest fares, which in turn helps to stimulate the market for air travel in Central and Eastern Europe. As economic growth in the region continues to push ahead of Western Europe, ever more customers take the opportunity to fly with the airline.\nThe share price may have soared in recent months, but with double-digit earnings growth anticipated for the next two years, the shares are still attractive for growth hunters, with the P/E rating falling to just 12 for FY2019.",

        "title": "Bowriders: Outboard vs. Sterndrive | Formula Boats",
        "raw_content": "Tags: Boat Tips and Resources | Bowrider Boats |\nIf you\u2019re in the market for a bowrider boat, chances are you\u2019ve noticed more and more are available with outboard engines in place of sterndrive engines. In the past, sterndrives have always been the preference for bowriders, but as time has gone on brand new boats are coming with outboard power, even when it comes to some high-performance boats. According to Statistical Surveys Inc. (SSI), the US Boat industry has sold more and more outboard-powered boats over the past few years \u2014 up from 127,981 in 2012 to 165,435 in 2016.\nWhat is the reason behind this industry shift to outboards? How do you know if an outboard engine is right for you? What features do you need to consider as you shop for your bowrider? We\u2019ve compiled a list of some of the critical factors to consider \u2014 performance, fuel efficiency, space, aesthetics, tilt, cost, maintenance, winterization and noise level. While outboard engines outperform sterndrive engines in some areas and vice versa, the decision ultimately comes down to your specific boating wants and needs.\nBefore we get into the specifics of each factor, it\u2019s important to be familiar with the three types of boat engines \u2014 inboard, outboard and sterndrive, also known as inboard/outboard. The main difference between the three is the location of the engine.\nInboard engines are under the deck and out of sight. There are two types of inboard engines, D-Drive and V-Drive. D-Drives go in the center of the boat, with the prop and rudder beneath the hull. V-Drive engines maintain the same location for both the prop and rudder, but the engine itself is under the transom seating.\nOften the choice of D-Drive versus V-Drive comes down to the use of the boat. D-Drive\u2019s location in the center of the boat results in a much smaller wake, making it ideal for ski boats. The position of the V-Drive naturally causes a more significant wake and is perfect for other watersports.\nAs their name suggests, outboard engines are attached high on the transom, outside of the boat. This engine location is visible and accessible, so it can be tilted out of the water, making maintenance a breeze. These engines are also known for their steering ease. While outboard engines are usually less powerful than inboards, you can match the power by having a few outboards on your boat.\nSterndrive engines, also known as inboard/outboards (I/O), are a combination of inboard and outboard engines, as their name suggests. In sterndrive engines, the motor is in the back of the boat under the transom. The drive unit is tucked beneath the swim deck.\nOutboard vs. Sterndrive on Bowriders\nIf you\u2019re interested in purchasing a recreational boat, you\u2019re probably considering a bowrider. The two most popular engines for bowriders are sterndrive and outboard engines. There are several factors to comparing these two types of engines, and both engines come with their list of pros and cons. We\u2019ve gathered information regarding several of the key factors to consider when you\u2019re deciding on outboard vs. sterndrive on bowriders below.\nWhen it comes to the performance of outboards vs. sterndrives, you want to consider the power-to-weight ratio. Outboards weren\u2019t always able to compete in the performance category, but the amount of horsepower you can pack into them today is a game changer. Both sterndrives and outboards will come with a choice of horsepower, but there are other important aspects to consider.\nFor example, if we\u2019re comparing a 200-horsepower sterndrive to a 200-horsepower outboard \u2014 both have the same horsepower, but one weighs significantly more than the other. The difference in weight varies depending on the specific model of each, but an outboard is frequently hundreds of pounds lighter. Usually, when it comes to performance and overall handling, lighter is better. However, it is important to consider what type of water you\u2019ll cruise, as more weight gives you a much sturdier ride as you cut through waves.\nThose hundreds of pounds you save in weight with an outboard translate to savings when it comes to fuel efficiency. If gallons per hour are important to you, consider a modern four-stroke outboard, as they are often the most fuel efficient. While RPMs at a cruising speed tend to be higher with an outboard engine, they still beat sterndrives in fuel efficiency \u2014 one of the pros of outboards on bowriders.\nWhen thinking about saving fuel, be sure to estimate how often you\u2019ll be using your boat. More frequent use means the savings due to fuel efficiency may add up, but if you aren\u2019t anticipating frequent rides, you may place less of an emphasis on this factor.\nWhether you choose an outboard or a sterndrive for your bowrider, you\u2019re going to have to sacrifice space \u2014 it\u2019s just a matter of how much and where.\nWith a sterndrive underneath the boat, you\u2019re able to maintain a full swim platform on the back, uninterrupted by an outboard. If you\u2019re primarily going to be using your boat for hosting family and friends and want to have that easy access to the water, this is something to consider. On the flip side, if you choose an outboard motor, you\u2019ll lose space on the back but gain a bit of cockpit space for storage or seating usage. It all depends on the specific bowrider model.\nFunctional space is one thing to consider \u2014 style and aesthetics are another. While these two areas go hand-in-hand, your preference is the ultimate decision-maker. Sterndrive engines are often the aesthetic choice because they\u2019re entirely out of view. However, some prefer the look of an outboard engine on the back of a bowrider. It\u2019s all about personal preference.\nThere\u2019s only one option when it comes to tilt \u2014 outboard. Sterndrive engines cannot tilt, given their location underneath the boat and out of sight. With an outboard engine, you can shift the whole engine, prop and drive entirely out of the water. This is one of the pros of outboards on bowriders.\nFirst of all, it enables you to navigate through shallow waters. Second, by tilting your outboard motor up when you\u2019re not using it, you dramatically decrease exposure to marine growth and corrosion from salt water. Finally, outboard tilt allows you to drain all the water out of the engine, protecting it from the risk of an unexpected overnight freeze. With a sterndrive engine, you don\u2019t have this option, as the engine isn\u2019t as accessible.\nOutboards and sterndrives have a completely different design, which means their upfront price tags are different. Pricing between the two used to be more competitive, but now outboards are almost always less up-front. In 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) mandated that all sterndrives needed to use catalytic converters, just like car engines. The addition of catalytic converters caused the price of sterndrives to increase, while the outboard motor was able to maintain its cost.\nIn addition to considering up-front cost, it\u2019s also important to think about the price of maintenance and what it will entail for each type of engine. While it\u2019s impossible to predict the specific repairs your engine may need, there are a few things worth noting. First of all, neither engine requires more routine maintenance than the other. When repairs are necessary, however, sterndrives are usually more expensive to fix.\nAs previously mentioned, a sterndrive engine isn\u2019t as easy to access in the back of the boat. Difficult access means more expensive labor costs when routine maintenance or repairs are needed. Outboard engines, on the other hand, are outside the boat, making them easier to reach for repairs and giving you the ability to conduct most maintenance in or out of the water. Outboard engines are also much more DIY-friendly.\nSterndrive engines use a marinized automotive engine block, making them much more sensitive to the cold. Because of this, they require a more extensive winterization process, and you\u2019ll want to avoid any risk of freezing. Both of these factors may mean a shorter boating season.\nWinterizing a sterndrive engine is usually done by a qualified marine mechanic because it\u2019s a complicated operation. That means more prep to get your boat ready in the spring. In addition to extra winterization time, sterndrive engines must avoid freezing temperatures to prevent extensive damage, which can mean cold nights force you to take your boat out earlier than you\u2019d like.\nOverall, outboard engines have a much more straightforward winterization process, which is a pro that can mean a DIY winterization for many owners. Simple winterization means you\u2019re up and running in no time in the spring. Don\u2019t forget the tilt, which drains the water and makes your outboard engine much less susceptible to freezing \u2014 allowing you to extend the boating season for as long as possible.\nWhen it comes to sound, sterndrive engines used to have an edge on outboards because of their location underneath the bowrider, whereas the outboard is open to exposure in the back of the boat. However, the newer four-stroke outboards have significantly improved in noise level. While sound is always something to consider, especially if you\u2019re hoping to host family and friends on your new boat, we\u2019re pretty confident you\u2019ll find that modern-day outboards and sterndrives are pretty even in this category.\nOutboard vs. Sterndrive Pros and Cons\nOver the past several years, it\u2019s clear that outboards have come a long way in many respects, making the market much more competitive when it comes to choosing between outboards vs. sterndrives on bowriders. However, in the end, the right choice relies upon your specific boating wants and needs.\nWhile all of these factors \u2014 performance, fuel efficiency, space, aesthetics, tilt, cost, maintenance, winterization and noise level \u2014 are important to consider in your decision, the pros and cons are subject to your situation. For example, while the lighter weight of the outboard may make a great solution for someone who wants a boat to take around a lake, it could also be a nightmare for someone who is looking to navigate the rough waves of the ocean.\nFormula Boats: Outboard and Sterndrive on Bowriders\nAt Formula Boats, we understand that it\u2019s important to be able to customize your new boat with an outboard or sterndrive engine based on your needs. That\u2019s why we offer our customers a choice between the motors, not only on many of our bowrider and sun sport models. In addition to flexibility in engines, our boats have a variety of other customizable features, especially when it comes to our bowriders.\nWe offer six different bowrider models, plus two crossover bowrider models that feature an enclosed cabin. Each comes with standard features and additional options to personalize your boating adventure. Our models range from 24 to 35 feet in length, with max beams ranging from eight feet six inches to ten feet nine inches. Each model comes with plenty of storage for everything from watersport accessories to food and drinks, and our adjustable seating makes it easy to rearrange seats and backrests to accommodate any crew.\nTwo of our bowriders are also available in an Extreme Sport (XS) model, with a forward-facing sterndrive engine, which is yet another custom engine option that\u2019s of particular interest to watersports enthusiasts. This specific sterndrive engine is beneath the hull of the boat, moving the props below and away from the rider, similar to an inboard prop. It also pushes exhaust out into the water rather than into the air behind the boat and in your face.\nThere is certainly a lot to consider when you\u2019re in the market for a new boat. You can begin building your custom boat on our website. Choose everything from the specific type of outboard or sterndrive engine to the exterior color. You\u2019ll get an immediate price based on the model you\u2019ve built and access to discounts our dealers may be offering. If you aren\u2019t sure exactly what you need or have more specific questions regarding outboard and sterndrive engines, please contact us \u2014 we\u2019d love to help you find the boat solution that\u2019s best for you.",

(AP) \u2014 David Moore tried his best not to let the final pass in Seattle\u2019s loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last week bother him for long.\nIt\u2019s not easy when it\u2019s a throw that could have potentially tied the game and forced overtime, but instead bounced off Moore\u2019s shoulder and fell incomplete on the final play of Seattle\u2019s 25-17 loss.\nIt was shown on seemingly every TV broadcast playing highlights of the game , and while it would have been an exceptionally difficult catch after getting tipped by a Chargers defensive back, Moore wishes he could have made the grab.\n\u201cI tried to stay away from it,\u201d Moore said on Thursday. \u201cAfter a while, I\u2019d say Monday after meetings, I tried to watch it and then I was like, \u2018It\u2019s over with now. I\u2019m on to (the Rams).'\u201d\nThe incompletion was the most difficult moment the second-year wide receiver has faced since becoming part of Seattle\u2019s wide receiver rotation. The Seahawks had an untimed down from the 6-yard line needing a touchdown and a 2-point conversion to force overtime.\nQuarterback Russell Wilson stepped up away from the pass rush and Moore had flashed open running across the back of the end zone.\nWilson zipped his pass in Moore\u2019s direction, but just a couple of yards away from finding the receiver\u2019s hands, the ball was tipped by the Chargers\u2019 Jahleel Addae. The tip slightly changed the trajectory of the pass and it started severely wobbling offline. Moore was unable to adjust his hands in time and the ball thudded off his shoulder pads and to the turf.\n\u201cI (saw) it get tipped. I saw the dude come across and I tried to adjust to it but it was a little bit too late,\u201d Moore said. \u201cIt was a fastball coming in hot, getting touched, it\u2019s kind of hard to get your hands where it needs to be after that.\u201d\nMoore said he spent time Sunday night wondering if there are even drills to mimic having a pass change as that one did so close to the receiver.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a really tough catch. He\u2019s tracking the ball, he sees it coming and all of a sudden the ball takes kind of a strange turn,\u201d Seattle offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said. \u201cHe was really dejected, really upset. Got a chance to talk to him after the game, said a lot of things still had to happen. That wasn\u2019t the reason we won or lost that game, but it was a very difficult play.\u201d\nMoore\u2019s development has been one of the big stories of the season for Seattle. His progression from an unknown seventh-round pick in 2017 to becoming the Seahawks\u2019 No. 3 receiver was so rapid Seattle felt comfortable releasing veteran Brandon Marshall last week to open a roster spot.\nWhile it wasn\u2019t a dropped pass, the final play is the first major adversity Moore has faced this season. He was emotional after the game, but said the moment was quickly put in perspective.\n\u201cAt first I took it kind of hard, but then I had Doug (Baldwin) and Tyler (Lockett) and all the brothers and stuff, and all the coaches tell me stuff like this happens all the time,\u201d Moore said.",

        "raw_content": "Ford should get serious about Ontario's deficit\nAppeared in the Ottawa Sun, July 11, 2018\nOntario\u2019s long string of operating deficits, and resulting run-up in government debt (projected to hit $325 billion this year) raises a $325 billion question: How will Premier Doug Ford\u2019s new government tackle the province\u2019s fiscal woes, which have weighed heavy around the necks of Ontarians?\nFirst, let\u2019s review the situation. At the end of this year, Ontario will have run 10 operating deficits in 11 years. Because operating deficits largely exclude spending on long-term capital projects (roads, bridges, etc.), they\u2019re a useful measure of whether or not the government is paying \u201cday-to-day\u201d bills in any given year with money coming in that year.\nSo why have Ontario\u2019s deficits lasted so long? To answer this, we must look at the previous Liberal government\u2019s deficit-reduction strategy following the 2008/09 recession.\nDespite the big deficit and the rapid run-up in spending during the recession, the Liberal government under Dalton McGuinty (and later under Kathleen Wynne) refused to reduce spending to deal with the issue in a timely manner. Instead, they continued to increase spending\u2014crucially, at a slower rate than the growth in revenue. The hope was that revenue would catch up to expenditures and the deficit would slowly shrink.\nOntarians are still paying for this strategy today. By choosing to shrink the deficit slowly, the government remained in the red year after year for a long time, adding to the provincial debt. Yes, from 2009/10 to 2016/17, the annual deficit got smaller most years. But the government still spent more than it took in, so the debt kept growing.\nMoreover, these operating deficits were often accompanied by additional new debt for capital projects, accelerating annual debt growth. That\u2019s partly why the province\u2019s net debt soared from $194 billion in 2009/10 (the year the deficit peaked) to $308 billion the year the deficit was finally (briefly) eliminated in 2017/18.\nAnd even in 2017/18, when the Wynne government claimed balance, independent analysts (including the province\u2019s own Financial Accountability Office) called those balanced budget claims into question.\nClearly, Ontario can\u2019t afford another slow ambling walk towards a balanced budget\u2014as we have seen, the cost of debt accumulation is high.\nNow, here we are again, but this time Doug Ford\u2019s Ontario PC government faces a budget deficit (thanks primarily to a big burst in government spending during the final two years of the last government), raising important questions about how to shrink it.\nIf the Ford government wants to get Ontario\u2019s fiscal house in order, reduce the amount of government debt interest paid by Ontario taxpayers, and make room for badly needed tax relief, a budget plan that calls for another string of deficits should be a non-starter. According to Canadian history, successful deficit-elimination efforts often move much faster than that.\nPremier Ford and his cabinet should view rapid deficit-elimination as a priority while recognizing it may well require nominal spending reductions\u2014not just a slowdown in the rate of spending growth\u2014to achieve this goal. The old maxim \u201cslow and steady wins the race\u201d does not apply to deficit reduction. If the Ford government is serious about repairing Ontario\u2019s finances, history suggests it must come out of the blocks running.\nWhat Happens to the Federal Deficit if a Recession Occurs in 2019?

        "raw_content": "Home > Universal health care doesn\u2019t require a single-payer government monopoly\nA recent article [1] in the New York Times by Robert H. Frank makes a politically appealing case for why the United States should adopt a single-payer system. Unfortunately, the author makes a number of inaccurate (or at least, incomplete) observations that deserve correction.\nIn fact, the same data source [2] shows that the cost of bypass surgery is even lower in Switzerland ($17,729) and the Netherlands ($14,061)\u2014two countries that rely heavily on regulated private health care insurance markets.\nThe poster child for single-payer is undoubtedly Canada. Like every other universal (and not necessarily single-payer) health-care system in the OECD, Canada spends less per capita than the U.S. does on health care. However, it also has some of the longest wait times for treatment in the developed world. In a recent survey [3] of adults in 11 countries (including the U.S., Switzerland and the Netherlands), Canada ranked last in terms of the ability to get a same or next-day appointment when sick, the wait for treatment in the emergency department, the wait to see a specialist and the overall wait for all elective surgery.\nTo be clear, Canada\u2019s poor performance is not the result of its pursuit of ensuring universal access to health care. Rather, it\u2019s more attributable to its stubborn adherence to a single-payer system where the government has a monopoly over the financing of core-medical services, its active discouragement of private alternatives, and the Canada Health Act\u2019s prohibition [4] on copayments and user-fees\u2014policy stances that contrast those commonly found in more successful universal health-care systems around the world.\ncanadian health care system [6]\namerican health care [7]\nobamacare [9]\nsingle-payer model [10]\npatients [11]\ncanadian wait times for medical treatment [12]\nhealth care wait times [13]\nnew york times [14]\nBacchus Barua [16]\nSource URL (modified on 07/12/2017 - 09:35): https://www.fraserinstitute.org/blogs/universal-health-care-doesn-t-require-a-single-payer-government-monopoly",

Movement disorders specialists are more familiar with the different types of movements during daytime. Sleep specialists are assessing motor abnormalities during sleep at night.\nThe aim of this Research Topic is to offer a complex picture of movement disorders in sleep and the sleep in different types of movement disorders. Review articles and clinical studies are welcome. There will be an overview of the main sleep problems (insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, periodic limb movement disorders, nocturnal leg cramps, sleep talking, REM sleep and non-REM sleep parasomnias, other motor problems during sleep) and their classification. Details related to circadian rhythms, sleep-wake cycle are offered.\nDifferent aspects would be detailed: how to approach sleep dysfunction in a movement disorders patient, how to assess them using questionnaires, scales, and instrumental using actigraphy, video-polysomnography, scoring of sleep-related movements, neuroimaging, differential diagnosis of motor problems during sleep.\nSleep is a period of rest during the 24-hours period. Hence, there is need an inhibition of the normal motor control during day. Motor control dysfunction would be described in REM sleep behavior disorders. There will be diagnostic criteria and explanation on how idiopatic RBD evolve over years into a synucleopathy (Parkinson\u2019s disease, multiple system atrophy, Lewy body dementia). Restless legs syndrome is an important underreported topic. There are some clinical features of PD that overlap with RLS symptoms. Periodic limb movement disorders are encountered by 80% of these patients.

        "title": "Marvin Marvel's Marvelous Marble Machine: Funagain Games",
        "raw_content": "Genre: Maze\nMarvin Marvel's Marvelous Marble Machine\nAKA: The Marble Game\nAbstract Strategy Game Nominee, 2006\nDesigner(s): Greg Lam\nPublisher(s): Pair-of-Dice Games\nManipulate the marble manufacturing methods of the magnificent marble-sorting machine to amass the most amount of marbles in this madcap game for multiple players. Much mayhem might ensue in the march to marble mastery.\nControl the Chaos... and win all the marbles!\n35 machine tiles\nRoboRally Out of Stock\nChaotic, but shooting marbles around is fun!\nMarvin Marvel's Marvelous Marble Machine (Pair of Dice Games, 2004 Greg Lam), or MMMMM for short, may go down as one of the oddest-named games that I own, and certainly one that I can never remember completely (I just call it \"that marble game\"). Based on the theme of marbles rolling around, being maneuvered towards goals of players by machinery, it immediately caught my attention. I've always enjoyed machinery and marbles, and using them as the theme in a game sounded like an excellent idea.\nAnd despite being slightly fiddly, I thought that game fit the theme well and was actually quite fun to play. With two through four players, the game is interesting (five and six is a bit too chaotic), but best played with two or three. Each player is attempting to lay machinery to point the many \"marbles\" towards their goal(s). The game board quickly gets cluttered up with machinery, and some odd things can happen; but it's an enjoyable romp that will pass many a pleasurable moment.\nThe board is a large hexagon made of a grid of interlocking smaller hexagons, surrounded by six goals, one on each side of the hexagons. The goals are bordered by separators that act as posts and are marked with a number from one to six, with one side of the post marked as \"odd\" and the other as \"even\". Players determine what goals are theirs (symbols and colors mark the goals to help with remembering). Stacks of \"marble\" tiles are placed face down near the board, and a pile of machine tiles is placed in a cloth bag. Each player draws two machine tiles from the bag, one player is chosen to go first, and then play passes around\u2026\nOn a player's turn, they must play one tile and can possibly play two. A player can play either a marble or a machine tile but must play a marble tile before a machine tile. When playing a machine tile, a player simply picks one from their hand and may place it on any space on the board, even one occupied by a marble, but not on top of another machine part. Some machine tiles are actually \"modifiers\", which allow the player to move existing machine parts, delete them, etc.\nWhen playing a marble, the player flips over the top marble tile and places it on the home space (in the center of the board), facing one of the six possible directions. Each marble has a number on it, to indicate its speed, and an arrow to show its direction. Whenever a marble is added to the board, all marbles already on the board immediately move in the direction of their arrow the amount of spaces listed on the marble. A marble that is on or hits a machine part must follow the special rules for that piece.\nWhen a marble moves into a player's goal, they immediately collect that marble. Marbles that hit a post at the end cause players to roll a die with the player whose goal matches the number (odd or even), getting the marble. As soon as one player runs out of tiles and can no longer draw one (a tile is draw to replace each machine part played), the game ends. All marbles on the board complete their movement, and the player with the most marbles wins the game! Alternatively, a player can win if they reach a certain number of marbles (such as seven marbles in a two player game).\nThe tiles in the game include the following\u2026\nJumps - When a marble hits these, it jumps over the next space, even if a machinery part is already on it.\nGo Home - Sends a marble back to the home base, with the same orientation.\nPush - Moves the marble one space in a certain direction, without changing its orientation.\nLeft/Right 2 - Rotates a marble 120 degrees to the left/right.\nLeft/Right - Rotates a marble 60 degrees to the left/right.\nDivert Slow - Diverts only speed one marbles one space in the direction indicated.\nFork - Sends a marble in one of two directions, determined by an odd/even roll of the dice.\nReverse - Turns a marble around.\nSome comments on the game\u2026\n1.)Components: For some players, it was hard for them to get over the fact that they weren't actually using marbles but rather round wooden discs with stickers on them. I found the theme worked well and came across through the components. The wooden discs are small but of good quality, while the board is a handkerchief. While this is a novel idea, I'm not sure yet what I think of it. Yes, the board is easy to store and unfold; it just seems a bit odd. The actual machine tiles have symbols and words on them to help explain what they do, and most of them are intuitive; although one can simply put out the page in the rules that explains each one. Everything comes packaged in a plastic snap container, which is small and unassuming.\n2.)\tRules: The rules are on four full-sized pages, but one must remember that this consists of a lot of pictorial information on how the machine tiles affect the marbles and detailed descriptions on how to place the tiles (it's really not that difficult). Once players understand that whenever they add a new marble, all marbles on the board also move; everything clicks into place. I found the game easy to teach, although I usually have to help explain what each piece does to some players.\n3.)\tDarter: I played MMMMM around the same time that I played another board game, Darter. While the games have several differences, there are also many similarities - placing pieces that affect moving parts on the board, etc. While they may be similar, there are enough differences that people might want to own both. MMMMM is more fiddly and has more different types of machine parts. It's also much more inexpensive and can handle more than two players. Darter is of a much higher quality, and is a bit more elegant, but is rather expensive and can handle only two players. Again, I like both games; and while I'll rank Darter higher, MMMMM is interesting enough for me to also enjoy.\n4.)\tChaos: Sometimes there are six or more marbles on the board; all heading in different directions. This can cause a bit of consternation for some folk, as they have to look all over the board at tons of different machinery parts and marbles. I personally found this chaos a bit satisfying, as it was fun to sneak a marble into one of your goals, while the opponent was watching another group of marbles. Sometimes a player will simply have to allow a marble to go into their opponent's goal, simply to make sure that some other marbles head towards their goal. Many times, a whole group of marbles will follow the same path, making each piece of machinery in their path rather critical. I will state that the number of players is directly proportional to the amount of chaos. A two player game is fairly chaotic but very manageable. A six player game is absolutely insane, and the board changes so much between turns that I'll never attempt such a thing again; it would drive a normal person insane. Having three or four players is chaotic but manageable, but I still think two is the sweet spot.\n5.)\tStrategy: The game is more fun than strategic. That sounds a bit odd, considering the amount of options that are available; but I found it a bit overwhelming to think too far ahead with all the marbles and machine parts all over the board. There's simply too much going on that I was unable to think past the \"now\". This is okay, as I just liked putting down pieces and watching as they bounced the marbles towards my goals. It's fascinating to watch how the machine pieces all interact with each other, and some amazing loops and other \"domino\" effects can sometimes be accomplished.\n6.)\tLuck: MMMMM does have a decent amount of luck. Not only do players only have two tiles - and hopefully they're the ones you need; but whenever a marble hits a separator, a random die roll determines who gets the marble. It's critical, at least for me, not to let the marbles hit the separators, because I can't stand how a single die roll determines who gets the marble, which is rather critical in the game! I understand the mechanic, but for me it caused a certain frenzy, as I would always have marbles shoot away from separators. Some folk may not like this rule, but you could simply have marbles that hit a separator got back to the home space.\n7.)\tFun Factor: MMMMM is all about fun. Yes, there is tactical placement of machine parts taking place, and yes, there is some strategy as to whether you place two marbles each turn, or not. But mostly it's about the joy of watching the machinery and marbles interact with each other. Sometimes a really cool combo is set up, neatly dropping marbles into your goal, which satisfies most people, adding a lot of fun. For this reason alone, I like MMMMM, because I like to see complicated machinery work through a series of simple moves, and that\u2019s certainly emulated in this game.\nIf you're like me and like Rube Goldberg machines, then MMMMM is a game that will most likely be up your alley. It's very inexpensive to purchase, offers a lot of variety, and is a fair amount of fun for players, as they watch marbles bounce all over the board. And besides, it's fun to try and say the name five times quickly!\nOther Resources for Marvin Marvel's Marvelous Marble Machine:",

        "raw_content": "The making of Rocks\nThis film won a Silver Plus Award and the prize as Best Junior entry.\nAt the very top of Essex is a quiet village called Steeple Bumpstead. 'Junipers' is the youth section of Steeple Bumpstead Players and has been running for over ten years. The group got into film-making when the leader at the time, Triss Pollington, had voice problems, couldn't direct stage performances and had the idea after listening to a feature on First Light on the radio.\nTo enable them to make their first film Junipers TV Cocktail the group obtained funding from 'Arts in Essex' and used the services of 'Multi@rts' in Haverhill who provided the equipment and expertise to help the youngsters make a short film. The group loved the experience and was thrilled when an excerpt called Strange Mill was shown at the Co-operative Young Peoples Film Festival in Bradford. A few months later, TV Cocktail won the Peter Kittel Film Trophy in the Harrow Video and Cine Society Film Competition.\nThe enthused group raised more funds and decided to make a feature comedy based in their village.\nNearly 30 young people aged from 9 to 24 were involved in the making of Rocks. The script was written to involve as many young actors as possible. The Junipers had input at all stages of the film-making from script-writing to editing including storyboarding and filming. The project began in March 2004 and was completed in time for a premiere in the village hall a year later.\nThe film was inspired by someone receiving a text message that was not meant for them. Thus the basic concept of the Rocks story emerged.\nA group of skateboarders receive a coded text message that they think has come from gangsters who need some diamonds ('rocks') collected from a hideout. They've got the wrong end of the stick - it's really a message from one of their mums asking them to get something from the local shop\u0085\u0085or is it??????\nThe 17 minute comedy shows the Junipers acting as gangsters, skateboarders, a netball team and police and was filmed at several locations in the village (much to the bemusement of the villagers), a local skatepark and the Haverhill police station. It featured music from local bands.During the film-making, Junipers had a lot of support from the local community - in particular Haverhill Police who allowed them to film in their station and Essex Police who lent a car and police officer for an afternoon.\nThe filming was done over about 10 weekends which went mainly to plan. However, the session that was filmed at the Haverhill skateboard park became a write-off when the camera, which was filming while riding on a skate-board, crashed into another of the skate-boards and was damaged! This scene is included in the 'out-takes' section.

        "raw_content": "NASA\u2019s autonomous Morpheus lander completes its final test flight\nNASA\u2019s experimental Morpheus lander has just completed its 15th and final test at Florida\u2019s Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The lander managed to take off and land on a nearby test course of simulated rocky terrain. What sets Morpheus apart is that no humans are sitting at a console to control its movements. After the button is pressed, Morpheus operates autonomously.\nThis final test flight was very much like the other untethered flights. The lander ignited its methane/oxygen rocket and jumped 800 feet into the sky before turning its robotic attention to the landing zone. The heart of Morpheus is the ALHAT system, which stands for Autonomous Landing and Hazard Avoidance Technology. This 400lb package of laser sensors and computers can scan a surface and identify disruptions in the surface that could pose a danger for the lander. As we saw in the lead up to the Philae landing on comet 67P, choosing the proper landing site is a difficult process.\nThe landing went fine, but the Morpheus program hasn\u2019t been without its setbacks. The first test vehicle was delivered to KSC several years ago and promptly blew up during a test flight. The rebuilt lander has proven much more versatile. Its work done at KSC, Morpheus will now be shipped off to Johnson Space Center to be evaluated for future technologies. This isn\u2019t the end of the technology behind Morpheus, but it\u2019s the end of this particular hardware revision.\nMorpheus and the ALHAT system could prove to be the basis for future unmanned landing craft. Most of NASA\u2019s research targets have no atmosphere, or very thin atmosphere in the case of Mars. A vehicle that can intelligently analyze the terrain and land safely under its own power would be hugely useful. Future scaled-up craft based on Morpheus could also transport people and take care of all the landing procedures or at least work as a failsafe in the event things go wrong.",

        "raw_content": "While mutual funds are utilized around the world, they are especially important in Belize. Learn more about the Mutual Fund Act of 1999, how it improved the economy in Belize and how it could strengthen your assets.\nWhat is the Mutual Fund Act of 1999?\nIn an effort to bring interest and assets to Belize, the country overhauled their financial system in the 1990s. Along with an International Insurance Act and an Offshore Banking Act, Belize established the Mutual Fund Act in 1999.\nEssentially, this act was designed to regulate mutual funds in Belize. It helped to categorize mutual funds into three distinct categories. Private mutual funds were for those funds with fewer than 50 investors, professional mutual funds were for those funds only open to investment professionals and public mutual funds were those that offered shares to the general public for purchase.\nEach of these three types of mutual funds needed to meet minimum cash requirements to be in accordance with the act. The Mutual Fund Act also outlines the freedoms that mutual funds in Belize can have.\nThese include the opportunity to operate from outside of Belize as long as they are registered in the country and the potential to save by not paying capital gains taxes.\nMutual Funds Bring in Cash to Belize\nWith the Mutual Fund Act of 1999, the economy of Belize was strengthened substantially. Adding in regulations made mutual funds feel safer about setting up shop in Belize. Investors, too, felt more confident that their interests were being protected and that they could trust that any mutual funds in the country were registered and regulated by the government.\nEstablishing this trust meant that more assets were continually being passed through Belize. As is always the case when a country becomes financially in demand, more businesses blossomed in Belize since 1999.\nMany offshore corporations have been founded over the past 15 years, and there are countless mutual funds operating from Belize today. More business means more growth and a higher GDP, which is great news for investors as well as anyone living in or visiting Belize.\nRegulations Strengthen the Position of Investors\nAs an investor in Belize, the Mutual Fund Act of 1999 also brought you plenty of benefits. You can rest easy knowing that any mutual funds you invest in will be regulated and protected by the government.\nPlus, since mutual funds operating in Belize have fewer expenses, they can pass those savings on to you in the form of lower management and maintenance fees. You'll also enjoy more security in the Belize market as a whole.\nThe Mutual Fund Act of 1999 revolutionized the world of mutual funds in Belize and strengthened both the local economy and the positions of local and offshore investors.",

        "raw_content": "Federal Reserve Boss Ben Bernanke Promises Record High Gas Prices Through Summer\nInfowars.com 28 March 2012\nBen Bernanke told ABC\u2019s Diane Swayer on Tuesday that gas prices will continue to skyrocket through the summer.\nBernanke told Sawyer gas prices \u201care a major problem\u201d and he admitted they are \u201ca hardship for lots of people.\u201d\nDuring the interview, he tried to pawn off the fallacy that gas prices are responsible for inflation, which he said will escalate over the next few months.\nBy inflation Bernanke means price increases. As Ron Paul notes, blame for this can be placed at the doorstep of the Federal Reserve.\n\u201cMost economists fail to understand that inflation is at its root a monetary phenomenon,\u201d Paul wrote last March. \u201cThere may be other factors that contribute to price increases, such as famine, flooding, or global unrest, but those effects are transient. Consistently citing only these factors, while never acknowledging the effects of monetary policy, is a cop-out.\u201d\nBernanke also claimed the rise in gas prices can be attributed to Iran and troubles in the Middle East. \u201cThe Middle East is very unpredictable \u2013 lots of things happening with respect to Iran and so on, so you know, we obviously \u2013 need to be \u2013 very attentive to that,\u201d he told Sawyer.\nBernanke did not bother to explain how the Federal Reserve creates monetary inflation. It is really quite simple. More money equals less value.\nThe Federal Reserve is currently doing this through quantitative easing \u2013 increasing the money supply and flooding financial institutions with capital. Economists note that the problem with this is that although there is more money in the economic system, there is still a fixed amount of goods for sale.\nBernanke \u201cadmits he doesn\u2019t understand why the economy is the way it is. Reality doesn\u2019t fit his theory,\u201d writes Zero Hedge. \u201cSo, what do you do when you are the head of the world\u2019s biggest printing press, and don\u2019t know what else to do? Why QE3 of course.\u201d\nOn Tuesday, Bernanke hinted that QE3 may be right around the corner. He said more dilution of the money supply will be required due to vexatious unemployment.\nHigh unemployment is directly related the the Federal Reserve and its engineering of boom and bust cycles through monetary policy. The Fed \u2013 as Bernanke has sheepishly admitted \u2013 was responsible for the so-called Great Depression and its staggering unemployment. It\u2019s the same today.\nBen Bernanke is simply reading his bankster script, as instructed. If he was sincere, he would admit that rising oil prices do not create inflation. Oil prices are a reflection of a devalued dollar.\nIn an interview last year, ShadowStats editor John Williams said \u201cthe dollar\u2019s weakness is doubly inflationary. It is the biggest factor behind the ongoing rise in oil prices.\u201d\nIt\u2019s not greedy oil barons in the Middle East or Iran threatening to close down the Strait of Hormuz in response to an attack.\nIt\u2019s the Federal Reserve and the central banks.\nCopyright \u00a9 Kurt Nimmo, Infowars.com, 2012",

I also like the focus on business and the environment - a very positive message that business is part of the solution, not just the problem\u2026I think we are entering a tipping point where people are not arguing about the 'business case' for sustainability, the business case has been proven! It's good for the bottom line, for the top line, for corporate reputation, for employee engagement, and for getting talent into your company.\"\n- Dr. Peter White, Director, Global Sustainability, Proctor & Gamble Ltd., UK\n\"People are in good spirits here; these are the experts and the people with knowledge and power to change things. I only wish it was every year.\"\n- Shari Austin, Vice President, Corporate Citizenship, Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), Canada\n\"I've always admired GLOBE\u2026it is very important to share information and to push the envelope as far as discussing sustainable business practices.

I saw a very engaged audience.\"\n- David Cheesewright, President and CEO, Walmart Canada\n\"GLOBE is an excellent platform, there is a very high quality of people to meet, and it is a very exciting place to be.\"\n- Frank Wouters, CEO, Masdar Power, UAE\n\"GLOBE does a phenomenal job of taking the debate from 'should we?' to 'getting on with it'\u2026The session I attended at GLOBE was full; people were standing in the back, and people stayed until 45 minutes after because we had a really good discussion going.\"\n- Johan van't Hoff, CEO, Tonbridge Corporation, Canada\n\"GLOBE is a great opportunity to bring a lot of people from diverse areas and beliefs, and share, challenge and learn from each other\u2026How we move together and how we overcome all the obstacles needs someone like GLOBE to bring thinkers together and governments together to talk about how to move that business forward.\"\n- Larry Hutchinson, Director of Lexus and Scion Brands, Toyota Canada Inc., Canada\n\"It's a hugely successful conference. The seminars taking place at GLOBE are extremely interesting. You've got a lot of the top people engaged in the issues, discussing them; but you also have an interesting trade show of the latest energy and environmental technology...The issues GLOBE is engaged in have become more and more important to the world, so what GLOBE is doing is extremely important.\"\n- Anthony Cary, British High Commissioner, British High Commission, Canada\n\"DOW has stepped up our sponsorship in 2010 and it's just been an enormous opportunity for us to network at a higher level - that has been very rewarding\u2026just a tremendous opportunity\"\n- Joe Deustcher, Vice President, Dow Chemical, Canada\n\"I'm not quite sure why I haven't been to GLOBE before\u2026it's quite impressive, the number of people here.\"\n- Nick Otter, CEO, Global CCS Institute, Australia\n\"I've certainly seen a shift from the early days of GLOBE. Now you see the trade show being characterized by entrepreneurs, new business opportunities, a whole different cast of characters\u2026I think this path is about setting up commercial enterprises that are going to create the changes that society needs, and new business models are going to be created from that.\"\n- Gord Lambert, Vice President, Sustainable Development, Suncor Energy Inc., Canada\n\"The world needs events like GLOBE; bringing together the public and private sectors and covering the whole sustainability agenda at the same time is good. GLOBE has a very good foothold on the global event market\u2026\"\n- Henry Derwent, President & CEO, International Emissions Trading Association, Switzerland\n\"I've been to GLOBE several times, and one of the things I love is the trade show; seeing all the innovative companies and the different things they're trying to do to make a difference. Making the environment part of the bottom line is the right way to do business.\"\n- Dr. Janet Peace, Vice President, Markets and Business Strategy, Pew Center on Global Climate Change, USA\n\"I've been impressed with how thoughtful GLOBE is\u2026an optimal mix of precision and detail, alongside a much broader perspective; the combination of which is really quite rich.\"\n- Bruce Schlein, Vice President, Corporate Sustainability, Citigroup, USA\n\"The GLOBE team is first-class.\"\n- Peter Beattie, Commissioner, Queensland Government Trade and Investment Office, USA\n\"The opportunity to meet with colleagues from around the world really energizes me - to be able to share ideas, share my stories with them, and share their best practices with colleagues around the world. I'm really excited to take that energy back to my own business.\"\n- Sharon Walck, Senior Vice President, HSBC, USA\n\"GLOBE provides a forum to get public policy debated and discussed, provides a forum to get this information out. The more forums we have like GLOBE, the better off we'll be at the end.\"\n- Steve Snyder, President and CEO, TransAlta, Canada\n\"It's a great, great event, I really mean that. It's an event that brings together at-scale, and with seriousness, businesses talking about sustainability; but rooted in an imperative to succeed at business. It's not like business is being lobbied; it's more like business is talking about business, and how business is going to change in the future.\"\n- Tony Manwaring, CEO, Tomorrow's Company, UK\n\"This is an outstanding event and very well put together\u2026It gives me tonnes of energy to see countries, companies, and foundations all showing how they're participating in developing new (environmental) solutions.\"\n- Helmi Ansari, Sustainability Director, Frito Lay Canada\n\"GLOBE is a very impressive conference. It pulls together so many great, important, current themes.\"\n- Brad Berman, Editor hybridcars.com; Founder, BermanWorks, USA\n\"This is the second GLOBE I've been to, and I'm always struck by the eclectic mix that attends the conference. Clearly it's becoming more international\u2026and it's a mix of people who are working specifically on environmental issues, as well as people from companies that are producing some of those environmental impacts. Bringing these people together is important.\"\n- Bill Smith, Senior Vice President, Energy Sector, Siemens Canada\n\"These kinds of conferences are extremely positive because the clean tech business and innovations related to sustainability can only run through interaction with very different people. If you want to find new solutions for the future\u2026 you really need to integrate solutions from different places, different businesses. Having a place like GLOBE where these people can get together and share their ideas is something that's extremely important.\"\n- Dr. Michel Morvan, Vice President, Research and Innovation, Veolia Environment, France\n\"The 'convening' power that GLOBE has always provides tremendous value. We find it very effective to come here and meet people from so many different countries.\"\n- Dr. Vicky Sharpe, President & CEO, Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC)\n\"There are lots of ideas coming out of GLOBE. When you gather the brains of the world together to discuss how to calibrate better across industries and deal with the challenging issues\u2026we have better than what we have done in the past.\"\n- Samir Brikho, Chief Executive, AMEC, UK\n\"I love the GLOBE conferences because it's the way to connect with people from all around the world, some of whom you haven't seen since the last GLOBE.\"\n- David Helliwell, Co-Founder & CEO, Pulse Energy, Canada\n\"GLOBE is an excellent event that brings leaders from a wide region\u2026It was a pleasure to be inspired by all the great things that are going on.\"\n- Susanne Stormer, Vice President, NovoNordisk A/S, Denmark",

        "title": "Why you need a rainy day fund as a homeowner",
        "raw_content": "Posted In F.A.Q's\nA rainy day fund is often referred to as an emergency fund, and is usually a stash of money in a savings account that\u2019s easily accessible but rarely withdrawn from. With the many expenses involved in homeownership, along with those costs being generally easier to plan ahead, some may assume they don\u2019t necessarily need a rainy day fund. In fact, a recent survey found that around 57 percent of Americans have less than $1,000 saved up. That\u2019s not great news for our financial wellbeing, but there are solutions even for homeowners.\n\u201cMortgage payments do not represent your household\u2019s total living expenses.\u201d\nAccording to The Balance, many new homeowners assume that their monthly mortgage payments represent the entire cost of homeownership, when this is not the case. People who have recently purchased homes after renting an apartment may be especially susceptible to this misconception because as renters, they didn\u2019t need to pay for most repairs. Homeownership is a completely different ballgame. Maintenance costs need to be factored in to home budgets, even when everything appears to be in good working order. Otherwise, homeowners could be caught off guard by a sudden leak or structural failure that turns into a very expensive problem.\nHomeowners might also assume that the homeowners insurance policy they had to sign onto to secure a mortgage would cover the most significant repairs they will need to make. This also turns out to be untrue in many cases, particularly for repairs that could be considered normal wear and tear. As explained by the Insurance Information Institute, homeowners insurance is designed to financially protect owners from the total loss of their home and belongings due to a fire, some natural disasters and other covered perils. But it will generally not cover maintenance or repairs that can prove almost as destructive if they are not fixed quickly, like a crack in the foundation or old pipes.\nThe upshot is that homeowners will need to spend money to fix and replace things around the home, and they can\u2019t rely on anything but their own savings to pay for it. That\u2019s where a rainy day fund comes in.\nHow, and how much, to save in a rainy day fund\nThe hardest part of saving isn\u2019t necessarily doing it, but coming up with a concrete plan to make it an achievable goal. Emergencies are unpredictable almost by definition, making it unclear how much should be saved up to cover those costs. However, a plan to save consistently every month often outweighs that fact.\nOne rule of thumb for home repairs specifically is to save around 1 percent of the home\u2019s purchase price per year for maintenance. For example, if you live in a home purchased for $200,000, you might want to save $2,000 per year, or $166 per month in this fund. Ideally, that money would only be used for major repairs to essential components of the home, like the roof, gutters, siding or carpet, to name a few.\nAnother strategy is to build a more general rainy day fund that\u2019s only used for emergencies in any category, whether it\u2019s major home repairs or an expensive medical bill. Contribute a set amount each month to this account and reserve it only for unexpected but critical expenses. That will go a long way toward making your household more prepared for almost any financial speed bump.\nPrevious 3 benefits of working with a real estate agent\nNext Tips for planning a major renovation project",

        "title": "Annulment of Marriage | Family and Divorce Lawyers",
        "raw_content": "Family Law \u00bb Annulment Of Marriage\nWhat is an Annulment of Marriage?\nAn annulment of marriage in Australia is governed by the Family Law Act and requires a decree of nullity.\nA decree of nullity is an order which says that there is no legal marriage between the parties even though a marriage ceremony may have taken place. It is a finding that the marriage was void.\nAn application can be made to the Family Court for an order. There is no requirement that the parties be separated for any length of time.\nIf the decree of nullity is granted by the Court, it is effective immediately. A decree of nullity does not encompass parenting or financial matters, and legal advice should be sought in regard to those issues. An application for the division of property must be done within 12 months of the date of the annulment.\nTo be eligible to apply for a decree of nullity in Australia to effect an annulment of marriage, at least one of the parties must either:\nlive in Australia and consider Australia to be their permanent home, or\nordinarily live in Australia and have done so for at least 12 months before the application.\nAn annulment can only be granted in limited circumstances. If those circumstances do not apply, then the parties will need to be separated for 12 months and apply for a divorce if they wish to end the marriage.\nA decree of nullity giving rise to an annulment of marriage is an order of the court which says that there is no legal marriage between the parties.\nThe Court may only annul the marriage on the following grounds:\nOne of the parties was still validly married to someone else at the time of the marriage.\nThe parties are in a prohibited relationship. Marriage may not take place between direct descendants (such as parent or grandparent and child) or siblings (including half-siblings) including adopted (by law) relationships.\nThe parties did not comply with the laws in relation to the marriage in the place they were married, such as using a celebrant not authorised to perform marriages.\nOne or both of the parties was not old enough to marry.\nOne of the parties did not give their real consent to the marriage. This could be because their consent was obtained by duress or fraud, or because one party was mistaken as to the identity of the person that they were marrying or did not realise that they were being married or where one party was mentally incapable of understanding the nature and the effect of the marriage ceremony.\nApplying for Annulment\nAn application for a decree of nullity must be filed using an Initiating Application form. Three copies of the completed Initiating Application form must be filed, with a copy of the marriage certificate and an affidavit stating the facts relied on for the annulment of the marriage, and details of the kind of marriage ceremony that was performed.\nThere is a filing fee for an application for a decree of nullity which is currently $1,195.00. In some cases a reduced fee may be sought if the party filing the application holds certain government concession cards or can demonstrate financial hardship.\nTo commence the application for the annulment of marriage, the applicant has to serve the papers on the respondent to the application. The documents must be given personally to the other person by someone other than the applicant (or placed on the ground after telling them what it is if they refuse to take it), on their lawyer, or by post or electronic transmission (the receiver will need to sign an acknowledgment of service in this case). With the application, a copy of the court pamphlet on Marriage, Families and Separation, an Affidavit of Service form and an Acknowledgment of Service form must also be served.\nIf the other party wishes to contest the application, a Response to Initiating Application form must be filed. This must be supported by an affidavit setting out any facts they rely upon in opposing the application or if they say that the Family Court does not have the jurisdiction to hear the application.\nIf the respondent is in Australia, a hearing date that is within 42 days of the application will be set. If the respondent isn\u2019t in Australia, that hearing date will be at least 56 days after the application was made.\nAnnulment by the Catholic Church\nThe Catholic Church does not recognise the re-marriage of a divorced person while the first partner is still living. It also does not recognise the marriage of a single person to someone who has been divorced. No divorced person can marry again in the Catholic Church unless the Tribunal annuls the marriage.\nChurch law about the annulment of marriage can sometimes be complex and specialist advice may be required. Having an annulment granted by the Church is not recognised by the law as a legal annulment of the marriage and it is still necessary for the parties to legally end the marriage before remarrying.\nAustralia, Family LawAnnulment Of Marriage",

        "raw_content": "What Is SEO? Is It More Than Just Optimizing for Search Engines?\nSEO stands for \u201csearch engine optimization,\u201d but what does that even mean? It\u2019s the act of optimizing your site for search engines, right?\nGoogle (the site with the fun doodles) encourages webmasters not to base decisions on SEO alone but to first think of their audience and to make the main goal of their SEO efforts to improve the overall user-experience.\nWhile that might just be a recommendation by Google, I believe that it\u2019s actually what SEO is all about: improving the overall user experience on a website while attempting to increase the number of incoming links on your site. Users are the main audience for websites, not search engines.\nFocusing on the audience will provide better long-term benefits. Create positive experiences that make the user want to return, share, and even link to your site. Let\u2019s look at the basics of SEO that you can use to help improve the user experience (and generate more traffic).\nWhat are the basics of SEO?\nThere are many things that go into SEO, but the main areas of SEO are pretty easy to remember.\nYou may be asking yourself \u201cWhat about design? Or development? Aren\u2019t those things part of SEO?\u201d\nDon\u2019t worry\u2014I am getting to that. But first, let me talk about the basics of SEO.\nBasics of SEO #1: Meta Data\nMeta data is code on a site that the user doesn\u2019t always see but exists to help search engines rank a page and provide relevant information on search results\u2014as well as other websites.\nMeta data includes specific tags such as rich snippets, title tags, meta description, open-graph, and TwitterCards. These help tell the user (and search engines) what the page is about before they ever click through to the site.\nThese tags are added to Web pages with the goal of drawing the user\u2019s attention to a search result. This is accomplished by providing the user with instant information related to their query, which often results in higher click-through rates and lower bounce rates.\nFor example, if a user is searching for information about an album, he/she may see the tracks and the length of each track on the search result pages. Or if he/she is searching for information about a specific product, he/she may see the rating, price, and availability.\nThis inspires trust with the user before he/she even enters the site and entices him/her to click for more information.\nThese are content pieces that are pulled from the code on a Web page and displayed on search engine result pages. These are also used to increase click-through rates and help the user understand what the page is about before actually visiting the website.\nFacebook open-graph shows rich stories pulled onto Facebook when the page is shared. Basically, this allows webmasters to customize how information is moved from a non-Facebook-related website to Facebook with a link to a specific page. There are different types of meta tags that can be used on a site to recommend what information is shown on Facebook. This same idea is holds for Twitter with TwitterCards.\nBasics of SEO #2: Site Structure\nSite architecture (or information architecture) is the last major group of Search Engine Land\u2019s Periodic Table of SEO Success Factors, but it is still a very important one. Having a good site structure is important because it allows users (and crawlers) to navigate a website easily. Adding simple-to-understand URLs that convey content information helps this. Key elements to remember when planning a site structure include:\nYou can read more about site structure in the Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide from Google and in Search Engine Land\u2019s post \u201cSite Architecture & Search Success Factors.\u201d\nBasics of SEO #3: Well Written, High Quality and Unique Content\nOne rule to follow when creating content is to create value. Any piece of written content that doesn\u2019t provide any value has no purpose. But how does one measure value? Value could be measured by traffic coming to the site and staying a long time. But more importantly, it can be measured by the responses of the users after they read the content on the page. This is why content strategy is very important.\nDo they share the page? Comment on it? Share their point of view? These metrics are better ways to measure value.\nUse only unique content that isn\u2019t duplicated from other pages. This is important because search engines don\u2019t want to rank two or three websites next to each other if they are providing the same information.\nWhen search engines are looking for unique content, they tend to exclude content in the navigation, sidebar ads, and footer\u2014only including content from the body of the page.\nAsk yourself whether the value you bring to the topic is really unique. Rand Fishkin gives a great explanation of this in a unique content whiteboard Friday.\nA few ways you can manually measure high-quality content is to check if the author is an expert in the field, if there are any errors on the page, or if it\u2019s completely one-sided.\nBasics of SEO #4: Links\nIncoming links are still one of the strongest ranking factors for search engines, but this area of SEO shouldn\u2019t be worked on too much and in fact should follow the 90/10 rule. 90% of your efforts should be on creating content (value), and only 10% of your efforts should be focused on link building.\nThe best way to build links is by building relationships with people in your industry. If you build real relationships, your content is more likely to be linked to from other sites or shared on social networks.\nBuilding links should be an easy task when you follow the 90/10-rule. Otherwise, it\u2019s going to be extremely difficult to get authentic, non-spammy links pointing to your site.\nIn my next post, I will be writing about where SEO fits in with the marketing team, but first, what are your opinions of SEO and the benefits for the user and search engines?\nhttp://moz.com/blog/a-visual-guide-to-rich-snippets\nhttp://moz.com/blog/how-to-rank\nhttp://davidwalsh.name/facebook-meta-tags",

Over a 16 session period each young person is supported through a sport and personal development programme by a team of notable athlete mentors to enhance their employability and to lead more active lives.\nThe Really NEET college was founded in 2011 by Sophie Maxwell - who overcame homelessness and became a graduate - to provide a safe learning environment for young people who were not in employment, education or training.\nSophie said: \u201cI would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to Gripple for supporting us in such a tangible way. The event is open to all employers who I am sure will be impressed and decide to mirror Gripple\u2019s commitment to supporting disadvantaged youngsters into work.\u201d\nGripple has been involved with Really NEET for several months, including a group coming into The Old West Gun Works for a day to undertake various jobs and to take up the Gripple Challenge to make out of Gripple fasteners a contraption which would carry an egg safely from one side of the room to the other.\nGordon Macrae, special projects manager at Gripple, said: \u201cIt was a great day when we were humbled by the kids.

        "raw_content": "Gibson Custom Launches Limited Edition Peter Frampton \"Phenix\" 1954 Les Paul Custom \u2014 Video\nGibson Custom has announced a collaboration with Peter Frampton for a limited release of the Peter Frampton \u201cPhenix\u201d 1954 \u201cTriple-Pickup\u201d Les Paul Custom.\nA detailed and extensive replica of Frampton\u2019s storied guitar, the limited run celebrates one of music history\u2019s most unlikely reunions. Each of the 35 \u201cPhenix\u201d guitars in the series has been and played, signed and approved by Frampton.\nFrampton was introduced to his 1954 Les Paul Custom in 1970 when, after suffering guitar issues on stage during a Humble Pie show, fan Mark Mariana loaned him the guitar. The \u201954 Les Paul became an immediate favorite of Frampton\u2019s and Mariana generously gifted it to him. Over the next decade, that very guitar was heard on some of Frampton\u2019s biggest recordings, Humble Pie\u2019s Rockin\u2019 the Fillmore, Harry Nilsson\u2019s Son of Schmilsson and Frampton Comes Alive! as well as many other seminal albums in which Peter was a session player.\nThe duo separated in 1980 when Frampton\u2019s cherished \u201954 Les Paul was lost in a cargo plane crash in Venezuela. Miraculously, the guitar was spotted on stage in Caracas then disappeared to the Dutch island of Cura\u00e7ao. In 2011, through the cooperation of the government of Curacao and a local luthier from said island, Frampton and his guitar were reunited. Now nicknamed \u201cPhenix,\u201d for its ability to rise from the ashes, the guitar appears with Frampton on stage and in the studio.\nIn addition to bearing the battle scars of Frampton\u2019s own \u201cPhenix,\u201d each limited edition Gibson Custom model features a genuine mahogany body and neck, an ebony fingerboard, a pearl custom inlay and the \u201954 Les Paul Custom holly veneer headstock. The series stays true to the recognizable lamp black finish of Frampton\u2019s guitar and features heavy aging, all while maintaining exceptional playability and tone.\nFor more about this guitar, visit its page on gibson.com",

The doctors were unable to discover the cause of the disease until they open the patient\u2019s chest and found \u2013 mold.\nZigenhorn, otherwise healthy mother of two children, after gaining weight began to lose her vision; she was feeling a burning pain and sores all over her body. Eight months could not speak \u2013 instead knocked messages and written on a chalkboard.\nShe was visiting doctors, but no expert could determine what the cause of the disease was. Lupus, arthritis and problems with the thyroid were quickly extinguished and there seemed to be no solution until Dr. Susan Kolb, author of \u201cThe Naked Truth about Breast Implants,\u201d did not point out that the health condition of the patient could distort the mold around the silicone implants. As soon as the implants were removed, the symptoms began to recede.\nZigerhorn still keeps a video on her phone, which shows what was in her body. She believes that the content of the implant, which contained a mold, pouring for years into her body.\nThis is not the only case of this kind \u2013 Half Blade from Kentucky argues that experienced a similar scenario. While a spokesman for the US Food and Drug Administration states that there have been no similar complaints in connection with implants, according to him, implants still should be changed from time to time.\nDoctor Kolb, on the other hand, claims that she has cured thousands of patients suffering from the same type of injury and recommends patients that implants should be changed every 8 to 15 years.\nhttp://www.cuisineandhealth.com/\nPrevious articleFDA Approves Device That Can Plug Gunshot Wounds in 15 Seconds\nNext articleBabies Are Now Born \u2018Pre-Polluted\u2019 With Toxins, Chemicals.

        "raw_content": "Jr./Sr. High School Academic Eligibility\nSuperintendent\u2019s Regulation \u2014 Draft 07/27/2018\nStudents who participate in extracurricular activities are expected to maintain their responsibilities as a student, which include regular attendance, responsible behavior, and maintaining their grades. Although this philosophy holds true for all students, this eligibility regulation only applies to competitive sports and dramatic productions sponsored by Herkimer Jr./Sr. High School.\nEligibility Coordination\nThe athletic director or designee shall monitor information regarding student eligibility to participate in extracurricular activities, and will maintain a list of students who are ineligible. This includes 2.5 week grade checks, attendance information, and behavior information.\nWhen information about academic achievement, attendance, or behavior indicates a student is ineligible, the athletic director or designee will notify the student and the coach/director of any extracurricular activity in which the student is then participating.\nIn the case of academic ineligibility, it is the student\u2019s responsibility to obtain from the teacher a statement of acceptable progress, and to provide the Athletic Director or designee with the statement. Until this is done, the student will remain ineligible to participate in any extracurricular activities, including rehearsals and practices.\nEligibility Definitions\nStudent is allowed full participation in the activity.\nStudent is allowed to participate in the activity, but he/she must attend an after school study hall (\u201chomework club\u201d) from 2:50-3:45. They will not be able to take part in any activity that occurs during the mandatory study hall. The one exception to this rule is if there is a game, competition, or comparable event with the activity that requires the student to leave before 3:45. This must be cleared with the athletic director or designee.\nThe student is expected to attend but is not allowed to participate in the activity (practice/rehearsal, competition/production) and he/she must attend homework club from 2:50-3:45.\nStudents who are ineligible and/or on probation must attend homework club Monday-Thursday. While in attendance, students are expected to work quietly. Personal electronic devices are not permitted during this time. School electronic devices may be used for academic purposes only. If a student chooses not to attend, refuses to do work, or is asked to leave for misbehaving, his/her ineligible status restarts on that given day. If a student on probation chooses not to attend, refuses to do work, or is asked to leave for misbehaving, he/she is immediately ineligible for that activity. If a student misses, or is asked to leave from three (3) after school study halls, he/she will no longer be allowed to be a part of the extracurricular activity.\nIn order to remain eligible to participate in extracurricular activities students must be passing all classes at the time of the checkpoints.\nThe eligibility of a student to participate in extracurricular activities will be reviewed every 2.5 weeks. This will be done by generating an automated report through the online gradebook system (School Tools). The eligibility of a student to participate is determined by the student\u2019s academic status at the most recent checkpoint. This includes the previous school year for fall sports.\nIf a student is failing one course, he/she will be placed on probation. This student will remain at this status for one week. After a week has passed, the student must bring the sign off form to his/her teacher and the teacher will determine whether the student will regain full eligibility or remain on probation based on the student\u2019s effort, cooperation, and academic performance.\nIf a student is failing two (2) or more courses, he/she is immediately ineligible to participate in extracurricular activities. After a week has passed the student must bring the sign off sheet to his/her teachers and the teachers will select whether the student will be placed on probation or remain ineligible. *(A student cannot go from ineligible to eligible. Students must transition from ineligible to probation to eligible.) For a student to remain ineligible, he/she must be rated ineligible by two (2) or more teachers.\nFor students whose eligibility status is affected by the spring carryover, the determination of eligibility begins on the first day of school. Final averages (not fourth quarter grades) are used for this purpose.\nCourse credit earned during summer school overrides a failing average from the end of the school year.\nA student\u2019s initial status in the fall is otherwise consistent with the eligibility rules: one failure earns probationary status, and more than one failure renders a student ineligible.\nFor a student to return to eligible status from the spring carryover, he/she must complete an eligibility form signed by all teachers of all classes that the student is enrolled in during the fall semester.\nAll students must be in school on time and for all periods of the day of a scheduled extracurricular practice or event in order to participate on that day. The only acceptable reasons for being late to school are a scheduled health appointment, required court appearance, college visitation, or extreme emergency. If a student misses school for any of these reasons, authentic documentation must be provided (i.e. doctor\u2019s note). An unexcused absence on the day following an extracurricular event will make the student ineligible to participate in the next extracurricular event.\nExpectations for student behavior are described in the student Code of Conduct. Teachers may report to the athletic director, assistant principal or the principal those students whose behavior is unsatisfactory, and this information may be shared with the coach/director.\nA student will be ineligible from an extracurricular activity on the day of an in-school suspension.\nA student will be suspended from participation in their extracurricular activity for a maximum of one (1) week, or three (3) athletic contests, in the event of any out-of-school suspension.\n4. If a student athlete quits a sport without the consent of the coach, he/she will become ineligible for the remainder of that sport season and 20% of the next sport season they participate.\nStudents who violate the ban on alcohol, drugs, tobacco and vaping will be ineligible for their extracurricular activity for 2 weeks, or 20% of the full season. Further violations of this provision may result in a student being declared ineligible for extracurricular activities for up to one year.\nThe building principal may declare a student ineligible at any time for disciplinary reasons.\nReview of Eligibility\nA student who has been classified as ineligible to participate in extracurricular activities for the duration of an athletic season or drama production may request a review of that classification by a review board. The review board will consist of the building principal, athletic director and the teacher reporting the information leading to the determination of ineligibility.\nThe student and the student\u2019s parent(s) (or person in parental relation) will be given a reasonable time to present their appeal to the review board. If the student has been suspended from school, or a disciplinary hearing is pending, the appeal to the review board shall not re-argue the facts about the student\u2019s alleged behavior. The review board will inform the Superintendent, the student, and the student\u2019s parent(s) of its decision within five (5) school days of the review by providing them with a written and dated decision.\nWithin five (5) school days of the date on the review board decision, the student may make a written request to the Superintendent to review the decision. The written request may set forth the student\u2019s arguments for a change; however, there will be no additional meeting or conference unless the Superintendent decides to schedule one. The Superintendent shall inform the student and the student\u2019s parent(s) of the Superintendent\u2019s decision within five (5) school days by providing them with a written and dated decision.\nFurther review of the eligibility decision by the Board of Education and the Commissioner of Education will be available as provided in policy and the Education Law.",

        "raw_content": "Howdy and hello there,\nI just found out about this great, local company that makes juice that\u2019s good, good for you.\nTheir juice is great, it\u2019s nothing but the earth.\nBut then when I started reading about their company, I was even more hooked.\nThis company says it all, where we need to go as a country. Folks, if we\u2019d all just eat right and exercise, that would do more to lower health care costs than any politician could.\nRead about these guys. They\u2019re farmers \u2013 local farmers. They\u2019re not big agriculture. They\u2019re a small business. They\u2019re great stewards of the planet. And it looks like they\u2019re all a family. I bet going to work for these guys is a real joy each day.\nHere\u2019s the net effect when you support businesses like Big B\u2019s:\n1. You\u2019re supporting small businesses.\n2. You\u2019re putting people to work.\n3. You\u2019re sending a message to companies to quit making food that\u2019s bad for us and to start making food that\u2019s good for us.\n4. You\u2019re being personally responsible.\nA key tenet of the Republican platform is personal responsibility. BTW, I agree with the Republican Party\u2019s founding principles. I\u2019ve voted Republican. But I won\u2019t now. Not because of dogma, but because today\u2019s Republican Party bears zero resemblance to the founding principles.\nIt\u2019s completely hypocritical and bunk to bitch and moan about Obamacare \u2013 then go have a cheeseburger, milkshake and fries. You want to bitch, fine. But if you\u2019re overweight, don\u2019t exercise or eat well, you\u2019re part of the problem \u2014 not the solution. Sorry, those are the facts.\nMore than half of all health care costs is spent on lifestyle created diseases; type II diabetes, heart disease, cancer, to name some. No, living this way is not a cure for cancer. But studies have shown that it reduces all cancer risk by 90%. I have no problem with you complaining about Obamacare. But you need to know the whole story of what\u2019s causing health care costs to go through the roof.\nFor example. Palin bitches about the FLOTUS having an organic garden, starting a program for kids to eat well. She shows up to a school the next day with chocolate chipped cookies. But then, Palin claims to be about fiscal responsibility, saving money and paying off the deficit.\nPalin, in this case, is talking out both sides of her mouth. Because, health care costs are directly tied to what we eat and how we live. So FLOTUS starts a program that\u2019s good for kids, will help lower costs. But then Palin shows up the next day and bitches. People like Palin bring nothing to the world. All they do, is serve as distractions. FLOTUS is walking the walk. Palin, is not.\nAgain. I\u2019ll vote for a Republican. But not this brand of Republicans.\n5. You\u2019re being good to the planet, good to your body.\n6. You\u2019re helping farmers. Remember them? How about we quit going to war, and start taking care of our own?\nSo here\u2019s to companies like Big B\u2019s who get it, who are doing the right thing. Who are helping to lower health care costs.\nThere\u2019s a local farmer where you are who\u2019s doing the right thing too. Go find them. Do it today. Buy their stuff. Please.",

        "raw_content": "Personal liability insurance explained\nPersonal liability insurance protects you and your family in the event that you are held responsible for bodily injury or property damage to a third party. Personal liability covers the legal costs or damages that you are required to pay in compensation as a result.\nThe type of liability insurance you need depends on many factors, from your employment status, to your industry, to the country you live in.\nIn the UK, for instance, it is relatively unusual to take out personal liability insurance as an independent cover, however, it is included within many insurance packages. And with so many different types of liability insurance on offer, it can be tough to understand what you need to protect yourself.\nWhat does personal liability insurance cover?\nPersonal liability insurance would cover you if you were personally accused of putting someone\u2019s health or property at risk through misfortune/neglect. For example:\nA friend enters your home and slips on a wet floor, injuring their back. They claim that you are responsible because you neglected to make sure the area was safe.\nYour children are playing in the garden, and they accidentally break a neighbour\u2019s window with a ball. The neighbour claims you are responsible because you neglected to control your children.\nWhile on holiday abroad, you drop a lit cigarette, causing a fire that damages a business premises. The business sues you for the damages and expects compensation for its lost earnings because it had to close temporarily.\nIf you\u2019re now asking yourself, \u2018do I need personal liability insurance?\u2019, it\u2019s important to note that in many situations you may already be covered by another insurance package.\nIn your personal life, it\u2019s unlikely that your day-to-day activities will be particularly high-risk. During working hours, however, you may spend more time interacting with the public, increasing the opportunity for accidents \u2013 for which you could be held liable \u2013 to happen.\nDo I need personal liability insurance at work?\nWhile carrying out your duties at work, your business\u2019s insurance policy should cover you for any accidents that may occur.\nIf you are an employee, your employer should have public liability insurance, which will cover any damage sustained by a third-party through an accident caused by a member of their organisation while at work.\nIf you are self-employed, self-employed public liability insurance is necessary to cover you personally in the same circumstances.\nWhat insurance packages already cover me against third-party claims?\nOther insurance packages that often provide personal liability insurance include:\nTravel insurance \u2013 for accidents that may happen while you are abroad\nBuildings and contents insurance \u2013 may protect you if someone is injured by an accident at your home, or by your possessions\nBe sure to check your insurance policies to make sure that personal liability insurance is included as a feature.\nWho needs personal liability insurance?\nIn the UK, court cases for personal liability claims are rare, and so it\u2019s not a popular type of liability insurance. It\u2019s much more important to have personal liability cover in the US, where it is more likely that you will have a claim made against you personally.\nIf you\u2019re concerned about the level of cover your insurance packages offer you, get in contact with one of our expert brokers. Or you can find out more about our range of commercial insurance policies, online today.",

        "raw_content": "Common Men, Uncommon Valor\nBy Pamela Kleibrink Thompson\n\u201cEverything around you is just riddled with shrapnel. You see that right away. There isn\u2019t anything that isn\u2019t torn open; sandbags are ripped open, buildings are just shredded.\u201d That\u2019s how former Marine Ron Rees describes the scene inside the base at Khe Sanh during the monthslong siege by the North Vietnamese Army in 1968.\nRees recalled the battle in an interview for Bravo! Common Men, Uncommon Valor, a documentary that tells the stories of 15 survivors of the siege and reveals the long-term costs that the war had on their lives. First-time filmmakers Ken Rodgers, a lance corporal at Khe Sanh, and his wife, Betty, produced the documentary about Ken\u2019s outfit, Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 26th Marine Regiment, 5th Marine Division, attached to the 3rd Marine Division, one of the units assigned to defend the remote Marine base in the northwestern corner of South Vietnam.\u201d\nThe setting was just 14 miles south of the Demilitarized Zone separating North and South Vietnam and only 6 miles east of the Laotian border and the Ho Chi Minh Trail, the primary route the North Vietnamese used to send supplies to Communist forces in the South. The Khe Sanh base, established in 1962 as an Army Special Forces camp and assigned to the Marines in 1966, was at the far end of a tenuous American supply line on Route 9, the northernmost east-west highway in South Vietnam. In the words of General William Westmoreland, overall commander of American forces, Khe Sanh was \u201cthe cork in the bottle\u201d of the most likely enemy approaches to South Vietnam.\nBravo Company Corporal Steve Weise, far right, and his squad are entrenched at Khe Sanh. Wiese and Pfc. Mike McCauley, far left, were interviewed for the film. (Courtesy of Mike McCauley)\nThe base, covering 2 square miles, was tough to defend. Much of the high ground overlooking the base was under enemy control, the base\u2019s water supply flowed through hostile territory and Khe Sanh was often fogged in during the early months of the year. By December 1967, at least two North Vietnamese Army divisions had positioned heavy artillery in the area around Khe Sanh. Some 20,000 enemy troops were poised to attack. The Marines and a small contingent of South Vietnamese army rangers defending the base totaled about 6,000. Westmoreland ordered the Marine commander at Khe Sanh, Colonel David E. Lownds, to \u201chold at all costs.\u201d\nThe NVA began its assault on Jan. 21, 1968. After heavy fighting, the Marines threw back that initial attack, but the enemy controlled all land approaches to Khe Sanh, including the crucial Route 9. The siege began. Ten days later Khe Sanh was bumped off the nightly newscasts by the Tet Offensive, a nearly simultaneous series of attacks on cities, towns, villages and bases throughout South Vietnam during the country\u2019s celebration of the lunar New Year.\nMeanwhile, North Vietnamese artillery, from long-range Soviet 152mm and 130mm guns to closer-in mortars and rockets, bombarded Khe Sanh day and night. The Marines dug deeper trenches, fortified their positions, strengthened their shelters and moved underground. Resupply and evacuation were possible only by helicopter or cargo plane, and the Marines were always short of supplies.\nBut American airstrikes by fighters and bombers changed the odds of survival. Because the siege necessarily concentrated large numbers of enemy troops near Khe Sanh, American aircraft were able to inflict heavy casualties.\nThe NVA losses mounted, and in March the artillery bombardment eased, though it remained a constant threat. The enemy continued to extend its trench lines toward the Marine camp. But by early April, a steady decrease in NVA activity made it clear that the North Vietnamese were withdrawing. On April 11, U.S. Army engineers declared Route 9 open to vehicular traffic.\nThe siege of Khe Sanh was lifted. Although intense combat around Khe Sanh continued for three more months, American commanders decided the base had served its purpose, and by July 5 the Marines had evacuated all usable equipment, destroyed anything of value to the enemy and abandoned the base.\nThe precise casualty count is still uncertain, but several hundred American lives were lost in and around Khe Sanh, while the NVA lost thousands.\nA KC-130F tanker from Marine Aerial Refueler Squadron 152 is ablaze after being hit while landing at Khe Sanh. (David Douglas Duncan)\n\u201cWhen I left Khe Sanh for good in early April 1968, I flew on a CH-46 to Dong Ha,\u201d recalls Ken Rodgers, who now lives in Boise, Idaho. \u201cWhen I deplaned I looked back to the west at the mountains where Khe Sanh sat, and I said to myself, \u2018That\u2019s a hell of a story.\u2019 I\u2019ve been wanting to tell that story ever since.\u201d\nFor decades the story lingered in Ken\u2019s mind. Then in 2009, during one of the annual reunions of the Khe Sanh Veterans Association, Betty Rodgers was listening to the guys as they sat around telling their stories. \u201cIt really sank in at that time that we somehow needed to preserve this, their history, their story,\u201d she said.\nAnd the best way to do that, Ken thought, was to let the men tell their own stories in a documentary film. Before the Rodgers undertook the project, Betty spoke with Bravo Company commander, Captain Ken Pipes, who retired from the Marine Corps as a lieutenant colonel, to get his blessing.\nAlthough new to filmmaking, the husband-and-wife team had acquired related skills that were a big help. Ken, with a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of San Francisco, already understood the structure of storytelling, and Betty was a longtime photographer. Both had been watching and analyzing films for years.\nBut, admittedly, they still had a lot to learn. \u201cWe knew we would need to surround ourselves with talented and passionate people who could help,\u201d Betty said. The couple joined Idaho Media Professionals, an organization that promotes the creative arts and provides networking opportunities for people involved in those fields. \u201cThey assured us we could do it,\u201d Betty said, \u201cand they gave us much sage advice along the way.\u201d\nThe Rodgers funded the film with initial grants from the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation and one anonymous donor. They got additional financing from private donations and three rounds of crowdfunding managed by associate producer Carol Caldwell-Ewart. One of the largest sources was their retirement savings, Ken said.\nThe Rodgers hired a cinematographer, Mark Spear (who has since died), and the interviews began in mid-2010.\n\u201cWe invited every member of the Khe Sanh Veterans Association who had been in Bravo Company during the siege,\u201d Betty said. \u201cOut of those, 14 agreed to an interview. We also tried to find others who had never joined the organization, but had very little luck with that.\u201d\nKen\u2019s interview in Idaho was filmed first. The next Bravo Company interviews were conducted at the July 2010 Khe Sanh veterans reunion in San Antonio with Captain Pipes and Corporal Steve Wiese from California, 2nd Lt. Peter Weiss from New York, Pfc. Ron Rees and Pfc. Lloyd Scudder from Oregon, Pfc. Frank McCauley from Texas, Pfc. Mike McCauley from Washington, Lance Cpl. Michael O\u2019Hara from Indiana and Petty Officer 3rd Class John \u201cDoc\u201d Cicala, a hospital corpsman, from Michigan.\nAfter the reunion, the Rodgers went on the road to talk with other members of Bravo Company who agreed to be interviewed. They traveled to Michigan to film Pfc. Dan Horton and Pfc. Cal Bright, to Nebraska for Corporal Ken Korkow, to Illinois for Corporal Tom Quigley and to Iowa for 1st Lt. Ben Long. Horton and Scudder have since died.\nThe filmmakers gathered additional information at the National Archives in Washington, D.C., and the Marine Corps History Division at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia. Back in Idaho, they collected more photos and information, and Ken began transcribing the 22 hours of interviews.\n\u201cIn January of 2011, we received a phone call from longtime sound and film editor John Nutt asking if we needed some help with the film,\u201d Ken said. \u201cHe had read an AP article about our project while visiting his daughter in Tucson.\u201d\nNutt is a Vietnam veteran whose work on the movie Amadeus earned him an award from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts. His credits also include the Vietnam War movie Ap\u2260\u2260ocalypse Now.\nThe final sound mix was done with four-time Academy Award winner Mark Berger at George Lucas\u2019 Skywalker Sound facility in California.\nBravo! features never-before-heard audio\u2014a gift from Wiese, who had recorded the people and sounds of Khe Sanh during the siege and sent the audio tapes home to his parents in California. \u201cHe assumed his mother had taped over them years ago,\u201d Betty said. \u201cSometime after she passed away, Steve was going through his mother\u2019s belongings, found the tapes and realized the originals were still intact.\u201d\nWiese called the Rodgers to see if they might be interested in the recordings. \u201cOf course we were thrilled,\u201d Betty said. \u201cWe were in the middle of editing, so the timing couldn\u2019t have been better. John Nutt expertly wove the sounds and voices into the soundtrack.\u201d\nThe basic work on the film was completed in 2012, \u201cbut then we had issues regarding some of the future music rights,\u201d Ken said. \u201cWe replaced that music and completed the final version of Bravo! in 2014.\u201d\n\u201cMaking Bravo! was cathartic to me on a number of levels,\u201d Ken said. \u201cI discovered, while conducting the interviews, that I wasn\u2019t the only one who had survived the horrors of Khe Sanh. I knew it intellectually but not emotionally. Hearing the men tell their stories helped me understand that we shared the terrible memories.\u201d\nLater, while working with the film editor, Ken watched those interviews over and over again. \u201cInitially, I would end a screening session feeling like someone had abraded my soul on my grandmother\u2019s washboard,\u201d he said. \u201cBut as time went on, the trauma lessened, and I think the constant viewing of the film has helped me put my Khe Sanh experiences in their proper place. I don\u2019t think someone who endures what we lived through at Khe Sanh will ever get over the event, but we can learn how to place those memories in a mental spot that allows us to keep our lives in balance. Vietnam veterans didn\u2019t talk about the war for over 40 years, and now we can. Bravo! often starts the dialogue, and that is cathartic in itself.\u201d\nIn the film, Wiese opened up about an ambush of his platoon while on a patrol outside the Khe Sanh base. He was walking through a bomb crater when the enemy struck. Wiese hunkered down in the crater and made his way back to the base by jumping from bomb crater to bomb crater. It took the corporal all day to cover about 400 yards.\n\u201cThe only reason I survived was I just happened to be standing in a bomb crater where it was like 2\u00bd feet deep,\u201d he says in the film. \u201cI just happened to be walking through that at the time the ambush opened up.\u201d\n\u201cYou don\u2019t know what war is until you face it,\u201d said Dan Horton in his interview. \u201cAnd it\u2019s not John Wayne. John Wayne has never been to war.\u201d\nFrank McCauley revealed that because of his Roman Catholic faith he did not want to kill anyone. \u201cI was hoping I could get through this experience without ever using my weapon,\u201d he said.\nNicholas Warr, a Marine lieutenant who described his Vietnam experiences in his book Phase Line Green: The Battle for Hue, 1968, said that the Rodgers\u2019 film \u201ccaptures the essence and the humanity of warfare, the physical and mental pain, the fear, the elation upon survival that instantly turns into guilt, and the suffering and sorrow of war as it was experienced by the young Marines of Bravo 1/26 who fought at Khe Sanh combat base in early 1968.\u201d\nCorporal R.J. Strik shoots his flame-thrower during the battle of Khe Sanh. (T.H. Nairns. Department of Defense Photo/National Archives)\nBravo! won Best Feature Documentary at the 2015 GI Film Festival in San Diego, and the Major Norman Hatch Award for Best Feature Documentary from the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation. Filmmaker Ben Shedd, whose The Flight of the Gossamer Condor won the 1979 Oscar for best short documentary, has praised Bravo! for its look and feel. \u201cThe pacing is superb, deliberate, delicate, harsh, real.\u201d\nThe National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution honored Ken for his film by presenting him with its highest award, the Ellen Hardin Walworth Founders Medal for Patriotism, given to a person \u201cwho has displayed outstanding patriotism in the promotion of our country\u2019s ideals of God, home, and country through faithful and meritorious service to our community, state and nation.\u201d Betty received the DAR\u2019s award for Excellence in Community Service for her part in producing the film.\nThe Rodgers have traveled all across the country for screenings of Bravo! They have been invited to diverse places, Betty said, \u201cfrom San Quentin, to the Boston VA; from Brownwood and Dallas, Texas, to Moscow, Idaho; from the SS Jeremiah O\u2019Brien [World War II merchant marine museum ship] at Fisherman\u2019s Wharf in San Francisco, to universities and military bases; from Washington, D.C., to Chicago, Illinois; in private homes, and many, many more locations.\u201d\nThe documentary was shown at the 2016 Justice for Vets Conference in Anaheim, California, on June 1.\nKen said that viewers will come up afterward and say, \u201cNow I understand my dad,\u201d or \u201cI understand my brother\u201d or \u201cI understand people who had this happen to them and now they can\u2019t function like the rest of us; now I understand why they were the way they were.\u201d\nAlthough the film focuses on one unit, it honors the service of other Vietnam veterans as well, Ken and Betty say. The word \u201cbravo\u201d was put in the title not only to represent Ken\u2019s Bravo Company but also to applaud all of those who served in Vietnam.\nKen and Betty, both now 69, are producing another documentary. This one is about the wives of combat veterans. Ken Korkow, one of the Marines in Bravo!, once said to Betty, \u201cYou know, you wives are Vietnam veterans too, because you\u2019ve had to live with us and the impact our combat experience had on us.\u201d That comment spawned the new film, I Married the War.\nThe Rodgers received a grant for the project from the Idaho Humanities Council and have filmed an interview with Terri Topmiller, the widow of Robert \u201cDoc\u201d Topmiller, who was a medic at Khe Sanh during his time as a Navy corpsman.\nThe couple are seeking additional grants and corporate sponsors to fund the production.\nBravo\u2019s Battle at Khe Sanh\nOn Jan. 20, 1968, a Marine advance on one of Khe Sanh\u2019s nearby hills met unexpectedly strong resistance. As the hill battle was raging, a lone North Vietnamese Army officer approached the camp at Khe Sanh and surrendered to Captain Ken Pipes, commanding officer of Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 26th Marine Regiment, 5th Marine Division, attached to the 3rd Marine Division. The enemy officer confirmed not only that two NVA divisions\u201420,000 enemy soldiers\u2014had surrounded the camp but also said they planned to attack the very next day. As the NVA prisoner had warned, the opening artillery bombardment hit the Marine base on January 21, and it signaled the beginning of the siege. The barrage struck a hard blow when one round hit an ammunition dump at the east end of Khe Sanh\u2019s airstrip. The explosion detonated more than 1,500 tons of stored ammunition, multiplying the effect of the bombardment and killing 18 Marines while wounding many others. The unit at Khe Sanh closest to the exploding ammo dump was Pipes\u2019 Bravo Company, which would play a critical role in the 77-day siege of Khe Sanh. During the siege, Marines still patrolled regularly, although never more than 500 yards from the base perimeter. On February 25, the Marine commander at Khe Sanh, Colonel David E. Lownds, needed fresh intelligence, the kind that could only be obtained from prisoners. Bravo Company was told to patrol outside the southeast perimeter, and Pipes assigned the job to Lieutenant Don Jacques, leader of Bravo\u2019s 3rd Platoon. Fog was just beginning to lift as 3rd Platoon moved out beyond the protection of the wire and mines. At 9 a.m., three enemy soldiers leapt from their hiding places and ran into the open, directly in front of the surprised Marines. As soon as the Marines opened fire, the enemy soldiers disappeared into a tree line. Jacques received permission to pursue them, but Pipes warned him not to get into anything he couldn\u2019t handle. It was possible that the three NVA were trying to lure the Marines into a trap. Jacques led his entire 3rd Platoon in pursuit, and it was ambushed from two sides by NVA heavy machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades and mortars. The lieutenant called for artillery support, but he had strayed so far from his original course that artillery crews couldn\u2019t fire for fear of hitting the platoon. Marines of Bravo\u2019s 1st Platoon went out to relieve 3rd Platoon and also were ambushed. Jacques and 26 other Marines from the two platoons were killed, while few others escaped without wounds. Survivors trickled back to base in small groups or individually, leaving dead comrades on the field. On March 30, Colonel Lownds issued aggressive orders to Pipes: \u201cMovement to contact.\u201d In other words, leave the safety of the base perimeter and go looking for a fight. All three Bravo Company platoons would deploy to the same area where 3rd Platoon was ambushed a month before. One objective was to retrieve the Marines who had been killed in the ambush. The Marines of Bravo Company were ready for a fight. They had been pounded for over two months by the largely unseen enemy\u2019s artillery and mortars. Their buddies had been ambushed. They wanted to avenge their deaths. If any man had doubts about what was coming, an order that passed through the ranks erased them: \u201cFix bayonets.\u201d Captain Pipes led Bravo into the fight. The Marines assaulted the enemy trenches and bunkers aggressively and met strong resistance. North Vietnamese soldiers fought fiercely but could not turn back the tide. Bravo surged forward, taking casualties but never faltering. The enemy soldiers finally broke and abandoned their positions. Twelve Marines were killed on the patrol. A hundred more were wounded, including Pipes, who stayed in the fight despite serious wounds from a mortar round. The Bravo Company attack did not end the siege, but on April 6 a U.S.\u2013South Vietnamese relief force reached Khe Sanh via Route 9, breaking the NVA stranglehold on the base. Even with the siege lifted, however, fighting continued in the surrounding area until Marine forces were permanently withdrawn from Khe Sanh and the combat base was abandoned in July. \u2014Lance Thompson\nPamela Kleibrink Thompson, a career coach, speaker, writer and recruiter, has written for more than 100 publications.

When people under the age of 65 develop early onset dementia, this is usually characterised by memory problems, confusion, changes in behaviour and apathy or depression. Symptoms vary, and obtaining a diagnosis is often a long process as this condition is rare.\nEarly onset dementia can affect individuals with young families, and those who are working, which makes it difficult to cope with the condition on a daily basis. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we will be happy to talk to you about services and devices that can help to make things a little easier when you are living with a condition such as this.\nMake Life Easier If You Have Early Onset Dementia\nIf you or a loved one face a future that includes early onset dementia, you may find the following advice helpful:\n1. Reduce the worry. Anxiety about wandering can be a cause for concern for many people who live with early onset dementia, and maintaining a safe environment is crucial. Making use of devices such as GPS tracking systems, which can be used via a big button mobile phone, can help to bring peace of mind to all concerned, and we can advise you on systems that can automatically contact your emergency numbers if a safe boundary is breached.\n2. Build support networks. There are many support groups in local communities and online, and becoming familiar with these will help you to get to know others in similar situations. Both those living with early onset dementia and their families and carers will require support, and building good networks from the beginning can be very helpful.\n3. Make daily life more manageable. Some of the symptoms of early onset dementia include memory problems and difficulty with routine tasks, and this means that daily life can become more challenging. Devices such as pill box systems with daily medication reminders can be extremely reassuring and help you to adapt to life with this condition.\n4. Work with your care team. Whether you are living independently or with your family, you will be able to access medical care and support if you have a condition such as early onset dementia. You should talk to your care team about the options available to you and make sure that you are benefiting from all of the services in your area. There may be additional support available for your loved ones, including children, so it is worth finding out all you can about this type of provision.\nFind Independent Living Devices In Ireland\nOur friendly and helpful team at HomeCare Technologies will be happy to talk with you about the best products for your unique situation, and we will only recommend products we trust.

The following assistive devices have been designed to make life easier for people in these circumstances, and you may find that they can help to bring you peace of mind. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we have a great range of products that can make it easier to cope with daily life as you age. We only recommend products that we trust, and we will be happy to talk to you about your unique situation and help you to find the best solutions for you.\nAssistive Devices That May Help You Every Day\nOur favourite assistive devices are simple and easy to incorporate into your daily life. We recommend:\n1 Pendant alarm. A pendant alarm is a very helpful device that can literally be a lifesaver. Worn around the neck and connected with your big button phone, the pendant can be activated to notify up to three pre-programmed numbers so that you can summon help when needed. This offers a system that is easy to set up and use, and can help to alleviate anxieties about accidents and injuries in or out of the home.\n2 Security border patrol. Wandering is a real concern for those who have dementia or memory problems, and establishing a safe boundary that will alert a carer if it is breached can be very reassuring. This is a popular and non invasive way to maintain a safe environment and is highly recommended where wandering is a risk.\n3 Man down alarm. We love devices that can perform many helpful functions at once, and this big button mobile phone with man down feature and seizure alarm is a really great option. With automatic alarms for man down or if the carrier is motionless, as well as a self activated option and GPS localisation, this is an excellent choice to support safe independent living.\n4 Call and receive watch. This wireless calling system is an easy option that is worn on the wrist and makes communication simple up to a range of 150 metres. Bringing peace of mind to the wearer and to those caring for him or her, this system uses advanced technology to ensure that calling for help is as simple as possible.\n5 Fall safety mat. Much of the process of making independent living easier is about building confidence and providing reassurance that help will be available if needed. A fall safety mat such as this can help to prevent injuries in the event of a fall, and alert a carer via an alarm to ensure that help is close at hand.\nFind Assistive Devices You Can Rely On At HomeCare Technologies\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we stock fall management bed rails, fall alarms and large button mobile phones, and we are happy to help you to find the best solutions for your situation.

Seniors are embracing technology like never before as they are seeing how useful it can be in their lives, and certain gadgets are seeing a surge in popularity amongst this age group. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we know that many elderly people are unsure about using new technology on a daily basis, and often rely on their children and grandchildren to help them with this. However, as the Baby Boomer generation, who have already proved themselves to be serious gadget consumers, grow older, we are likely to see the first generation of grandparents with technology superior to that of their younger relatives!\nGadgets That Seniors Love:\nSmartphones. Smartphones are an essential for many people these days, and older generations are keen to make the most of the benefits they offer. With cameras, navigation tools and apps to impress the grandkids, many seniors find smartphones extremely useful in daily life. For those with mobility issues, there are now several big button smartphones available, and you can see some of the best in our online catalogue.\nHearing aids. Did you know that some hearing aids contain more sophisticated technology than a smartphone? Hearing loss is a common complaint amongst seniors, and most people do not realise that untreated hearing loss can lead to linked conditions such as dementia and depression. Modern digital hearing aids are tiny and very sensitive, and can often be controlled via a smartphone and used to stream mu-sic or audio.\nReminder apps. There are several apps that can be particularly useful for seniors, including medication reminders that can help you to avoid missed doses of important medicines and supplements. Calendar apps can also be very helpful to keep track of appointments, social engagements and arrangements.\nSocial media. Social media is a phenomenon that younger generations have grown up with, but many older people are finding their place with-in the popular platforms such as Facebook, and are making use of tools like Skype and video calling to keep in touch with family members and friends all over the world. This can be a really important way to combat the isolation that many seniors experience.\nComputers. As they have become more sophisticated, many computers and tablets have become easier to use and more reliable. Many seniors use desktops, laptops and tablets on a daily basis, and there are many models designed especially for people with limited mobility or impaired hearing or sight. If you are considering investing in a computer of any kind, it is worth taking the time to research and consult an expert before you make your selection.\nFind Technological Solutions For Seniors In Ireland\nFor mobile phones, panic alarms, pendant alarms and more, simply contact HomeCare Technologies online today or call 1890 344 344 (Ireland) or (00)353 214 214 925 (outside Ireland).\nTips For Caring For An Elderly Parent In Your Home\nLiving with an elderly parent can be challenging in many ways, but it can also be an extremely rewarding way to support a loved one who is no longer able to live alone. If you are considering moving in with an elderly parent, or asking one or both of your parents to move into your home, you should be prepared for the complex situations you are likely to face. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we aim to make life easier for carers and those they support. We will always be happy to discuss your situation with you, and can help you to find products and solutions that work for you. Here are our top tips for making it work when you care for an elderly parent at home.\nCaring At Home: Our Top Tips\nBe prepared. Although it can be tricky to discuss what will happen as your parents get older and become unable to live independently, it is essential to talk about this as honestly as you can. Be clear that you wish to discuss difficult matters now to make things easier in the future, and talk about issues such as healthcare and finances in advance so that these are easier to manage at the time.\nEnlist support. Caring for your elderly parent can be a wonderful experience, but it is also very draining and intense, and you should enlist support wherever possible. Talk to your siblings about how they will contribute to relieving the stress on you, whether this involves taking on some caring responsibilities or paying for respite care on occasions. It is also important to build good networks with the medical professionals and organisations that exist in your area for situations such as this. You may have a local charity that runs a day centre, for example, or a social care service that can provide some care to give you a break.\nInvest in solutions. There are many devices available that can make it easier to manage caring for an elderly parent in your home. At HomeCare Technologies, we will be happy to help you to find the best solutions, including panic alarms, fall mats and handrails, so that you can make your home a safer place and give yourself and your parent peace of mind.\nBe aware of medical complications. If your loved one is suffering with dementia, it may be much more difficult to care for him or her at home. You should ensure that hearing loss is treated promptly in order to reduce the risk of linked cognitive diseases such as this, and always seek help from a medical professional if you suspect that a serious medical condition is developing.\nCaring For Your Elderly Parent Is Easier With HomeCare Technologies\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we stock a wide range of care products and assisted living devices that are ideally suited to those caring for the elderly at home.

With more healthy years ahead of them and more disposable income than previous generations of seniors, many older people are taking the opportunity to travel and explore the world. Many people worry that traveling will be much more difficult now that they are older, but this need not put you off. There is no reason why traveling should be limited simply because you are a senior, and you may be surprised by how much you enjoy making the most of your freedom and flexibility.\nDream Big But Plan Ahead!\nThere\u2019s no need to give up on your plans to travel the world just because you are older many people continue to take exotic and exciting adventures well into their old age - but some careful planning will ensure that you don\u2019t run into frustrating hurdles. Here are our top travelling tips for seniors:\nDo your research. You are more likely to experience complications with your health as you age, so take the time to research healthcare provision in the destinations you are considering. Think about the sorts of food you will be comfortable eating, and consider the sorts of activities you would like to try.\nPrepare for difficult situations. Think about what you would do if an unexpected situation arose while traveling, and do what you can to prepare for this. Take out a comprehensive insurance policy, and ensure that you know where emergency medical help can be sought in the places you are traveling to.\nMinimise stress. You will enjoy your traveling experience more if you are not beset by stressful situations, so do what you can to reduce the likelihood of these occurring. Take direct flights wherever possible, and book accommodation that is likely to result in a good night\u2019s sleep for you!\nAddress health concerns. Pay a visit to your doctor before you travel, and ensure that you have enough of any necessary medications to see you through your trip. If you will be away for an extended time, you may need to arrange to have more medication sent to you, or to collect some from a local pharmacy while you are away. Medications should always be clearly labelled and packed in their original packaging, and you may also want to consider carrying a panic alarm to summon help if needed.\nStay in touch. It is likely that your family members and friends will be concerned about your wellbeing while you are away, so put their minds at ease by keeping in touch via video call or email. Check that your mobile phone will work at your destination, and make a plan to stay in contact another way if necessary.\nMost importantly, don\u2019t forget to relax and enjoy your travels!\nOur friendly team can help you to find solutions that will make life easier for you while you\u2019re travelling as well as at home. Simply contact HomeCare Technologies online today or call 1890 344 344 (Ireland) or (00)353 214 214 925 (outside Ireland).\n5 New Summer Activities For Seniors\nThe summer is a great time to get outdoors and try something new, and challenging yourself to meet new people can lead to many fun experiences. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we specialise in products that can make life easier for older people and their carers, and we will be delighted to help you to find solutions that enable you to make the most of the summer this year.\n5 Summer Activity Ideas For Seniors\nTry a new sport. Exercise is a vital way to keep your mind and body healthy, and trying a new sport or activity can be a great way to meet new people, too. Hiking and rambling are very popular activities for seniors, but you may prefer cycling or swimming for a full body workout. If you\u2019ve never exercised before, you should check with your doctor before beginning a new regime.\nVolunteer in your community. Volunteering with a local group or charity can be a wonderful way to engage your skills in useful work and feel that you are contributing to your community. There are many organisations in need of help, and you may find that volunteering with like-minded people is a very good way to make new friends this summer.\nLearn a language. Many people dream of learning a language but assume that they will not be able to do this because they are \u2018too old\u2019. There\u2019s no denying that it is harder to develop language skills in adult-hood, but it is not impossible, it is great for your cognitive skills, and it can be a very rewarding hobby - especially if you can take a holiday to try out what you have learned!\nTalk to friends and loved ones. Many older people experience isolation, and it is important to be aware of this and to make an effort to keep in touch with your friends and loved ones. At HomeCare Technologies, we have an excellent range of mobile phones, including large button models for people with limited mobility or impaired sight, and we can help you to find the best options so that you can keep in touch this summer.\nExplore your local culture. Visiting your local theatres and galleries can be a wonderful way to engage yourself in your local community and try new things. Challenge yourself to attend events that you would not normally choose, or join a group that meets regularly for cultural events and enjoy socialising with others at the same time.\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we stock a wide range of care products and assisted living devices for the elderly and their carers. We can help you to find the best solutions for your situation, including pendant alarms, fall alarms and large button mobile phones.\nBrowse online now or use the contact form for specialist advice.

Many people find that daily life is more difficult as they grow older, and living independently can become a burden. There are many potential dangers in most homes, and making adjustments that make life easier can help to put your mind at ease.\nThe kitchen is a particularly hazardous area within the home, and making changes here can help to prevent accidents and injuries. Here at HomeCare Technologies, we have an excellent range of products that are designed to reduce risk in the home and enable safe independent living for longer.\nRe-Arrange Your Kitchen To Prevent Accidents\nWhen considering safety in the kitchen, you should think about the following areas and make any necessary changes to help prevent accidents:\n1.The cooker.Leaving the cooker on or causing a fire can be a source of worry for many elderly people, and a device that is designed to switch the oven or hob off when not in use can help to put your mind at ease. Using a timer to ensure that the oven is only on when it is needed can help to save money on your utility bills as well as reducing the risk of fire.\n2.High cupboards. Falls in the home are very common, and storing things in high cupboards make falling more likely, as you will have to strain to reach the items you need. A re-organisation of your kitchen is likely to involve moving everyday items to lower cupboards, and making use of products such as shelves that pull out of cupboards to help you reach what you need more easily.\n3.Labels. If you become confused, you are much more likely to make a mistake that could be potentially dangerous. Labelling items in the kitchen with colour coded stickers can be a helpful way to make it easier to remember what is safe, what you may need help with, and when you have turned appliances off, for example.\n4.Food preparation. Many elderly people live with malnutrition because they are unable to cook for themselves as well as they have previously done, and you should consider how to make this task easier. On-line shopping, with a regular order to your local supermarket, or batch cooking with a friend or relative can be very helpful. Colour coding can also be useful for food items in your cupboards or refrigerator, helping you to notice immediately if a product is out of date.\nFind Independent Living Products In Ireland\nOur friendly team at HomeCare Technologies can help you to find the best products for your needs, and we will only recommend products we can trust.\nSimply contact HomeCare Technologies online today or call 1890 344 344 (Ireland) or (00)353 214 214 925 (outside Ireland).\n5 Ways To Make Your Home A Safer Place\nIt can be upsetting to admit that we become less independent as we grow older, and many people put off asking for help until it is too late because they are embarrassed about needing help or think they can still cope alone despite struggles with everyday tasks. However, there are many simple adjustments you can make in your home, at any stage, to make it a safer place for independent living when you are elderly.\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we specialise in products that help elderly people to live independently for longer, and we have a large catalogue of items designed to make life easier for you. You can call us at anytime to talk through your situation and we will be happy to help you find solutions to the problems you are experiencing in your home or daily life.\nHow To Make Your Home Safer As You Age\nThe following may give you some ideas about areas of your home that may need attention as you grow older.\n1.Flooring. The flooring in your home can be a potential hazard, especially if you have loose rugs or poorly fitted carpets. Investing in good carpets and having them fitted properly will reduce your risk of slipping, and always wearing non slip shoes or slippers in your home will help you to avoid injuries from slipping on hard floors.\n2.Lighting. Most accidents involving elderly people happen in the home, and areas that are poorly lit are much more likely to pose a danger. Replace all dim or broken bulbs with brighter options, and ensure that lighting is positioned in the best places to keep you safe, especially around the stairs.\n3.Organisation. Making your home a safer place can be as simple as organising your kitchen cupboards so that you can reach everything you need without straining, or removing clutter that can be a trip hazard.\n4.Danger spots. It's important to be aware that a high percentage of accidents at home happen in the bathroom, and you can make this a safer place by installing handrail support or other assistive devices. Talk to us about the different options, including shower seats and alarm devices.\n5.Personal alarms. There is a risk of having a fall anywhere in your home or outside, so the best solution can be a personal fall alarm that alerts a carer or loved one if you need help. You can choose a device that is also a mobile phone, or a personal alarm that you wear around your neck is a popular choice. Some such devices have tracking abilities, and fall alarms will help to put your mind at ease when you are living alone in old age.\nIndependent Living Is Easier With HomeCare Technologies\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we stock a wide range of care products and assisted living devices, including fall management bed rails, fall alarms and large button mobile phones.\nBrowse online now or use the contact form for specialist advice. Alternatively, call today on 1890 344 344 (Ireland) or (00)353 214 214 925 (outside Ireland) to discuss your situation.\nTips For Working With Epilepsy\nEpilepsy affects an estimated 40,000 people here in Ireland, but it is a condition that is much misunderstood. It is usually diagnosed when an individual has multiple seizures involving electrical \u2018surges\u2019 in the brain that can affect the whole body or just a part of it. Anyone can experience a single seizure, but epilepsy is diagnosed when someone has recurrent seizures. Being diagnosed with epilepsy does not necessarily need to impact on your working life, and many people will not experience another seizure once they are on the correct medication for their condition, but there are certain things that it may be helpful to know when you have epilepsy and are working or seeking a new role.\nEpilepsy And Your Working Life:\nUnderstand your rights. You are not legally obliged to tell your employer that you have epilepsy, but it is recommended that you do so in order that reasonable provision for your condition can be made. Epilepsy is a condition that is recognised under Equality law, so it is against the law for your employer to discriminate against you because of it. The fact that you have epilepsy should not influence your initial appointment to your position, and should not have any bearing on any future promotions or additional responsibilities. You have the right to be considered for all positions and roles according to your abilities and competency, and your condition should not be taken in account.\nProtect yourself with an epilepsy alarm. An epilepsy alarm or monitor can help to make your daily life easier and safer as it is designed to alert you or a carer when you show signs that a seizure is likely to occur. Carrying or wearing an epilepsy alarm can help to bring you peace of mind at home and at work, and reduce your anxiety about seizures disrupting your life. At HomeCare Technologies, we will be happy to help you to decide on the best sort of monitor or alarm for your lifestyle. You can find out about other things that may help you by contacting local or online support groups or charities.\nTalk about your condition. When you talk to your employer about your epilepsy, you pave the way for them to understand the condition better and to put measures in place to make life easier for you and for anyone else with epilepsy who may work for the same employer at present or in the future. Spreading the word helps to educate others and this will, ultimately, lead to a better awareness of what having epilepsy really means.\nLiving With Epilepsy Is Easier With HomeCare Technologies\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we aim to make life easier for our clients and their carers, and we stock a wide range of care products and assisted living devices. If you are living with epilepsy, we will help you to find the best epilepsy and wellbeing products in our catalogue, including seizure alarms, fall alarms and large button mobile phones.

Thinking outside the box can enable you to embrace new experiences and try things that you may not have previously considered, so take some time to consider your options carefully.\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we love to hear about what you do during your retirement, and we know that this can be the most rewarding time of life for many people. Travelling with grandchildren can bring an extra dimension of fun, and it\u2019s a great way to keep yourself young, too!\nIdeas For Travelling With Your Grandchildren:\nStay local. If you\u2019re new to travelling, or you have not spent a lot of time alone with your grandchildren before, plan a local trip as a good way to get used to travelling together. Pick an area that is close to home and explore it together, finding activities that appeal to all of you and keep everyone interested in the adventure. Look for museums and sites of historical interest, and try to tie these into the interests of the children wherever possible as it will be much easier to keep them on track!\nThink about food. If you haven\u2019t spent a great deal of time caring for your grandchildren on a regular basis, you will need to get used to considering the sorts of foods they like and whether or not they have special dietary requirements. Ensure that you have all the information you need if your grandchildren suffer with allergies, and always carry any medical information with you.\nConsider your budget. Think carefully about destinations that will give you the most for your money, but do not be tempted to cut corners and book something that is not suited to your needs. City breaks and versatile activity holidays may be a good idea to think about, and you are sure to find something that works well for everyone if you plan well ahead.\nTake an adventure. If you\u2019ve always wanted to visit a certain place, perhaps this is the time to share your dream with your grandchildren. Look at how you can adapt your plans to ensure that you all enjoy the trip, and think about how valuable this experience will be in your grandchildren\u2019s lives.\nPlan ahead. Your trip could be made difficult if you do not take the time to plan properly and ensure you have all the relevant passports, documentation and insurance you need. Don\u2019t forget that you may need proof of your relationship to the children and that you have parental permission to travel with them.\nLive Independently For Longer With HomeCare Technologies\nHere at HomeCare Technologies, we understand the challenges of ageing and we can help you to find the best solutions for your situation.

Did you know that you can now choose to access these services in another member state of the EU (European Union) or the EEA (European Economic Area)? This means that you can travel to any of these countries, including Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein, to access treatments and procedures, and be reimbursed.\nSince 2015, the Cross-Border Healthcare Directive has been fully enforced in Irish law, allowing citizens to travel abroad for elective treatments, scans and procedures at the cost of the HSE. This opens up many options for patients, as the legislation includes any planned procedures that are provided in Irish hospitals, including psychiatric and addiction treatment, orthodontic treatment and rehabilitation.\nCommon Questions About The Cross-Border Healthcare Directive:\nMust I be on a waiting list for a procedure? No, there is no requirement to be on a waiting list, and your referral for the care you need can be made by a GP, a hospital consultant or another HSE clinician.\nIs long term care covered? No, the Cross-Border Healthcare Directive does not cover long term healthcare needs. It aims to provide solutions for those who are in need of planned procedures.\nWhat is covered under the new legislation? Medical costs that can be reimbursed under this Directive include almost all elective treatments, but there is no provision to cover travel costs. Reimbursement will be the cost of the treatment in Ireland or the cost of it abroad, whichever is the lesser.\nWhere should I go for treatment? There is no stipulation or recommendation about where treatment should take place, but the Department of Health states that this decision should be made by the patient and his or her referring doctor, after identifying the clinician abroad and being satisfied that good standards of safety and care will be met.\nWhen will I be reimbursed? You must ensure that you have the cost of treatment to begin with, since this legislation is designed to reimburse rather than pay initial costs. However, reimbursement is usually immediate when your application being processed. You should note that a code system is used to calculate treatment costs, and the charges for in-patient treatment in public hospitals in Ireland, currently \u20ac75 per night, will apply, and will be deducted from the amount you are reimbursed.\nDoes my trip need prior authorisation? Prior authorisation is required for all inpatient treatment or care, but is not necessary in most other cases. The Department of Health recommends that you discuss your planned treatment with the National Contact Point Office before you decide to go ahead with treatment.

        "raw_content": "True Blood Finale: Getting Heavy\nMaybe it's the fact that Art Attack grew up with no religion, or maybe it's the fact that Art Attack has spent too many nights with Paul Fredric of Asmodeus X in a weird competition to see who can out-nihilist the other one. Either way, death has never really had any fear for us.\nOh sure, dying sounds like it sucks the calcium deposits right off the Grim Reaper's pelvis. Cancer, car wreck, rhinoceros encounter, they all sound like way too much freakin' ouchie. Death itself, though? No, we're not really scared.\nGary Calamar, who is in charge of True Blood's music and thus also the paycheck we draw from talking about it (Hi, Gary!), knew he needed just the right vibe for the Season 4 finale of True Blood, and he knew that \"And When I Die\" was the song that he wanted to use.\nBut which version worked the best? The Laura Nyro version? After all, she wrote it. Peter, Paul & Mary, or perhaps the more famous cover by Blood, Sweat & Tears?\nNo, in the end Calamar got in touch with The Heavy to record a brand-new version that would fully embody the half-trailer park, half Dark Shadows vibe that makes up True Blood.\n\"I immediately thought of The Heavy,\" said Calamar in an interview with KCRW. \" I love The Heavy's blend of sweaty soul and crunchy rock, and they had a spiritual feel as well. Their neo-soul anthem 'How You Like Me Now?' is an all-time favorite of mine.\n\"They were thrilled with the idea. Next I got on the phone with singer Kelvin Swaby to go over our needs for this recording and how it fit in the show.\"\nThe song, whoever is singing it, is a celebration of death and its benefits. That touches us rather deeply, because the one great truth you can learn in life is that we're all going to die, and if that is all someone has to threaten you with, then they have no threat at all.\nTen years ago, we were supposed to be having an early practice with a few friends with whom we had hoped to form a band. Instead, we watched towers fall, planes crash, lives alter and worlds themselves wounded. If we could go back in time and tell the world anything on that day, it would be this:\nThe men who did this are powerless over you. They say they will kill you if you do not cease being who you are. Laugh at such threats because they believe that they themselves will somehow escape death through their actions.\nIt is a graver loss to give up who you are. They can threaten us only with what we will reap in due time regardless. In death there is only peace, no matter the manner, and no matter the man.\nHopefully that little bit of soapboxing touched you, in which case we hope you thank Alan Ball and not us for it. He put, more or less, those words in the mouth of Eric's sire Godric last season, when they decided to bury Russell Edgington in wet concrete instead of just staking him and calling it a day. (By the way, almost the last shot of the show this season is the broken hole in the concrete where Edgington used to be.)\nMeanwhile, in other parts of Bon Temps, lots and lots of people have died. Jealousy, desperate attempts to save another, witch war, you know, it doesn't really matter. They may very well have wiped two main cast members off the payroll with this finale for a multitude of reasons, but in the end it comes back to those same words from Godric.\nAll these characters, and all the choices they have made, have led to their present situations. Take Tara, for example. Sookie's best friend has been on so many different sides that it's hard to really say where she stands at any given time. Well, in the end she decided to jump in front of Sookie to save her friend's life when a pissed-off she-wolf came to call with a shotgun.\nAnd Jesus? That loveable nurse who brought monogamy and magic to Lafayette's life? He's gotten the pointy end of the knife after Marnie took up residence in Lafayette's body. Not to mention we watched the second sad-ass funeral in True Blood with only two mourners when we buried Sam's brother Tommy.\nFor all those who have passed on in the show, and for all those who are desperately trying to stay alive, take heed in the message of \"And When I Die.\" Rapist or saint, murderer or regular Joe, vampire, witch, werewolf or human being of woman born, there is only peace when this life is all over.\nTo quote Neil Gaiman, \"None of us will outlast this version of the universe.\"\nThis brings us comfort. Let us go on record as saying that True Blood ends next season. It ends in a giant war with Russell Edgington, because the immortality that the vampires preach is a fiction. What do you expect from the man who brought us Six Feet Under? Death waits ahead for this column, this show, these characters and all of us. Death, and peace.\nThanks for playing along. Guess we'll see you on the other side.",

Driving along, suddenly he thought he saw a deal going down.\nThe deputy followed a suspicious car for a while, but when he tried to pull over the maroon Chevy Impala, the driver took off down Highway 249. Eventually, the driver stopped, jumped out of the car and ran away on foot, authorities say.\nBut wait, that's not all. After all, what would this blog be without a dead body, right?\nOnce the chase was over, the deputy returned to where he first saw the suspected drug dealer. Then he noticed something he hadn't noticed before: a dead man in the southbound lanes of Highway 249. His name: John Froehlich, 37.\nInvestigators say they do not have many leads. They believe Froehlich may have been trying to buy drugs when he and the dealer started fighting. When Froehlich tried to leave, investigators say, the dealer shot him and drove off.\nOn Tuesday morning at about 7 a.m., a Houston policeman was working around the 5000 block of Neches when he saw a gray Buick Park Avenue pulled over on the side of the road with its hazard lights blinking. When the officer peeked inside the car, he saw a dead man slumped over in the driver seat.\nPolice say the man, whose name has not yet been released, had been shot in the stomach. A gun was found wrapped in a towel sitting on his lap, police say.\nThe Harris County Sheriff's Office has a new murder investigation that may actually turn out to be quite old.\nOn Monday, deputies found an abandoned car at 12028 Crosby Lynchburg Road with a corpse inside. It was the body of Stacy Ladson, 38, in the 2003 Lincoln Navigator, and it appeared as though it had been sitting there for some time, authorities say.\nAt first, deputies could not tell if Ladson had been injured because the body had decomposed so much. But the county medical examiner was able to figure out that Ladson had been shot and was the victim of a homicide, authorities say.\nIf you have any information about these investigations, please call Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.\nView Bayou Body Count in a larger map",

        "raw_content": "Debt Settlement Programs In Fulton, Mississippi - What Makes It Succeed? How To Find The Top Debt Settlement Organization In Fulton, Mississippi\nAre you overloaded with debt? Do you need solutions? Are you currently against unfeasible credit card debt? If you replied yes to these questions, you should consider the debt settlement programs in Fulton, Mississippi.\nDebt settlement is the ultimate solution to the problems of countless individuals who happen to be weighed down by debt.\nSo many people are making use of debt settlement now, more than ever before, because of the increase in consumer credit card debt, medical bills, and school loans. For a lot of folks, the debt is far too large in comparison with their income to make them accepted as clients.\nDetermined by your own situation, you may find that the best choice is to work together with a debt settlement company. In most cases, individuals with debt ranging from $10,000 to $100,000+ are ideal applicants with this method. This unsecured debt takes the shape of education loan debt, utility bills, unpaid rent, credit card debt, and many more.\nWhy should a lot of people choose the solution of debt settlement programs? A chance to keep from a bankruptcy proceeding is one big factor. No one likes to decide upon a method like personal bankruptcy that can trail them around forever. If you're able to take a move which will not become a permanent mark on your record, it's really a simple enough choice. The effects of bankruptcy persist much longer than the decade of being able to see it on your credit. You will need to respond to the question of past individual bankruptcy on loan applications, credit card applications, and employment applications, forever. It's not fair to have a bankruptcy in your past which can continue to affect anything else that you'd like to accomplish. Being untruthful concerning prior bankruptcy proceedings might sound like the most realistic strategy for some, but this is fraud. Should you be dishonest, you will go to jail, lose your livelihood, and endure various other repercussions.\nA debt settlement program will mean that you'll be able to stay away from bankruptcy in the first place. Countless individuals think about getting in touch with a debt settlement organization a last resort approach, and it usually is. It's beyond worthwhile to manage your difficulties with debt via settlement and not have to deal with the consequences of personal bankruptcy.\nOn your credit, a debt settlement program won't appear as unfavorable as a bankruptcy proceeding, and it just shows for seven years as opposed to 10. The attractive element is the fact that settling debt is not going to turn up on those job, loan, and credit applications. There will not even be any kind of record from it once it's come off of your credit report.\nMany think that settling debt cheats creditors out of their rightfully owed payments, but this isn't the intention. The strategy is to enable people to do what they are able to once their resources are too limited to repay the full amount of financial debt. That's why it's looked at as a last resport approach. If you truly cannot pay for the debt, settling debt provides resolution. When you give consideration to how much money you've paid credit card companies in fees and interest charges, it's likely you paid them back what you first invested.\nCreditors are well aware that they will get more with settling debt than they can with consumer bankruptcy. They already know Chapter 7 consumer bankruptcy means that they will most likely not receive anything. What this means is that many creditors are prepared to consider debt settlement solutions to enable you to evade personal bankruptcy. It is actually in their interest.\nRepay debt faster. Subject to your situation and plan, you may get to pay off what you owe within twelve months. Generally speaking, a great debt settlement plan will allow you to accomplish it in two to four years. You are already aware that repaying financial debt is a lot longer approach without using a debt settlement program, which already isn't possible for you. Once you look at personal bankruptcy, consumer credit counseling, and consolidation, they all have common consumer debt installment durations from three to five years time.\nThough a bankruptcy proceeding demolishes your credit ranking and your good reputation, a debt settlement program defend you against these affects. Your debt settlement strategy is not an issue of public record. Individuals that want to know if you've chosen personal bankruptcy will definitely find it very easy to learn. Personal bankruptcy records are obtainable via an internet subscription company or at every federal bankruptcy courtroom. A debt settlement program will show up on your credit profile. Even so, it does not lessen your credit scores. Bankruptcy proceedings will.\nYou may continue working with your charge cards. Only if the debt settlement agreement specifically bars you from using your charge cards, you are able to keep utilizing them. This could let you continue to use your credit card, and that is very helpful in an emergency situation. Owing a lot of money to credit card companies might make it difficult making use of current credit cards or obtaining new credit lines. Furthermore, continuing to use your credit lines may remove the purpose of debt settlement.\nYou'll be able to make it easier to coordinate debt. Once you settle debt, you will not need to keep track of several installments, at independent interest rates, to different collectors. You'll be able to just make one simple monthly payment.\nYou have a lower payment and rate of interest. Your rates of interest and monthly installments can be substantially easier to deal with with a debt settlement plan. This means you will have more cash in your wallet each month.\nDebt settlement has got some unfavorable consequences. You might owe income taxes on the forgiven debts, not all settlement deals will be accepted, and you will have a noticeable impact on your credit. Paying off all your debts without debt settlement programs, when you can, is much easier than making use of debt settlement. It is still an excellent solution for consumers to avoid personal bankruptcy when they are not able to pay back the debt independently. Do a comparison of the negative implications against the merits of a debt settlement program to make the right decision for your situation. debt\nYou must be well prepared for the possibility of surrendering property. If you are using property like your automobile or residence as collateral , you might lose that asset if you don't make your loan repayments. A lot of times, an agency is only going to help you if you're able to offer them some collateral. The services will need this assurance of getting compensated, in case you fail to manage your end of the commitment. You aren't thought of as a truly dependable creditor when you turn to a debt settlement program, and collateral will make up for this.\nThere could be hidden fees, and you'll want to be conscious of these before you start. Low payments and interest rates do not ensure that you will not end up paying a lot more than you expect through a debt settlement program. These things come at the cost of a lengthy loan repayment period. According to the length of time you have been in debt, you might find yourself spending more through this longer timeframe.\nThere may be negative effects concerning taxation. Depending on the financial condition you have, any money you don't owe because of debt relief services such as a debt settlement service may be seen as income by the Internal Revenue Service, which means you will pay for taxation on it. Cancelled debts are taxed income once the credit card banks and creditors submit the amount to the IRS.\nHow Much Does A Debt Settlement Company Cost you?\nThe price is going to consist of ten percent to twenty percent of the original balance along with a small application charge. It should be payable over a couple of years. If you happen to owe around $30K, you might pay around three thousand. Lowering your consumer debt by 50% renders it well worth the expense. You can see that if you take a moment to look at the figures.\nHow Debt Settlement Functions\nWhen you connect with a debt settlement agency and start with a plan, the company is going to get in touch with creditors on your behalf. Creditors might accept an offer for about 50% of what they are supposed to be paid - which can be excellent for the consumer - who gets a sharp reduction quickly. Then again, a settlement rate can come anywhere from between forty and sixty percent, which is the average. Without the debt settlement company, the collectors will likely get absolutely nothing, so they're willing to accept such significant reductions. When people end up in such a serious predicament, they might go under at any time. It can be hard for creditors and banks to know what will come about. They already know consumers confront significant struggles that stop them from paying for their debts. If they will not take an opportunity, they might never be paid .\nSettlement is a huge undertaking, and it is not anything you should get into simply because you have a a troublesome financial debt situation. You are going to endure hardships with the effect on your credit standing and a decreased likelihood of receiving new loans and credit cards.\nWhen you've got other options, look into them thoroughly. If you are staring at personal bankruptcy, pick settlement instead. You'll want to look into other available options before you can settle on something as extreme as a debt settlement program. This is not a good technique for someone who just wishes to evade having to pay their debt. It is for those who are past options.\nIt is important to look into the value, the track record, and the quality of the debt settlement company you work with. You should definitely select one who has high marks in all 3.\nSettlement harms your credit score, but also helps it with time as you repay what you owe. Around one-fourth of clients who deal with a debt settlement agency get rid of debt in under twelve months. The majority can make this happen inside of two to three years. It takes time to put together a nest egg. You will receive frequent contact from the settlement company. Most connect once a month, even when it's not needed. When you need a genuine friend in your struggle with financial debt, you will find this in an excellent settlement organization.\nChoosing The Best Fulton, Mississippi Debt Settlement Service To Meet Your Needs\nSeek the advice of your state Attorney General and consumer protection agency prior to choosing a debt settlement program. If any complaints were registered, this is the way to see.\nMake sure to look into the agency before you decide to work with them. You need to understand how much time it will take, the amount it'll cost you, and what sort of services you'll receive. Don't sign up with a business that requires a large advance charge, and consider what the settlement company will charge you for their services.\nYour best option is to do business with an agency that provides in-person service. You are best off with a company that provides online support, telephone service, and local support, instead of one with just a couple of these solutions. It may help to talk to a real professional in person rather than dealing with a phone advisor.\nBe aware that a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153not for profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d title doesn't mean that the solution is free of charge, low-cost, or reputable. It may not be self evident, and the service can try to conceal it, but some will charge outrageous amounts.\nDefinitely examine critiques prior to choosing, and make a listing of services to compare.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/forest/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/gautier/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Seattle Organization Holds the Key to Improving Immunization Rates in Tanzania\nBy Craig Kielburger and Marc Kielburger\nRow after row of mothers wait patiently, babies fussing in their laps. A nurse in this small clinic in rural Arusha, Tanzania, calls them forward, one by one, and gives the squirming infants shots that will protect them from killer diseases, like measles and polio.\nOver the past 15 years, Tanzania has made a concerted effort to immunize its children--and has achieved a remarkable vaccination rate of almost 90 per cent. Tanzania is one of a number of African countries beating U.S. vaccination rates for all-too common diseases such as measles. That's still not good enough for the government and health organizations in that country, though. They want to get as close to 100 per cent as possible.\nBut figuring out which children have been missed is a huge challenge in a country where many families still live nomadic lives in remote areas.\nEnter Seattle health organization PATH. It's helping out, not with more vaccines or nurses, but a database.\nThe Better Immunization Data (BID) initiative, shows strong health systems in developing countries aren't built on hospitals and medical staff alone. Knowledge is vital, too.\nBID is an ambitious project to boost vaccination rates with an easy-to-use national electronic immunization registry. The initiative was launched in 2013 with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Pilots of the system were first rolled out in Tanzania and Zambia last year. Additional technological expertise is provided by a Canadian college, Mohawk College in Hamilton, Ontario, which has been working on health information systems internationally for eight years.\n\"In Tanzania, we're able to accurately track needles in children's arms,\" says Justin Fyfe, Mohawk's senior software architect on the BID project, who explained the registry to us.\nIn the U.S., there is still no national electronic immunization registry. Each state, and in some cases even individual cities like New York City, maintain their own independent, unconnected vaccination record systems.\nOverseas, when there's an immunization clinic in Tanzania today, nurses are equipped with digital tablets as well as needles. A nurse enters the information on each vaccination into an app, which connects into the country's national registry. In areas where lack of power renders tablets impractical, health workers use a specially-designed paper form that is later scanned into the system.\nOnce their children are vaccinated, parents get a card with a barcode. Any health center in Tanzania connected to the registry can scan the card and get a child's full immunization record, making it an epic time, labour, and money saver.\nBefore BID, it could take a team of Tanzanian nurses an entire day to prepare for an immunization clinic, says Dykki Settle, a senior technical advisor with PATH. They would have to wade through a mountain of paperwork, identifying which children still need which vaccinations. If a family had arrived from another part of the country, the nurses would have no information to work with.\nTracking how many children are being immunized - and in which areas - will also help Tanzania more efficiently manage vaccine supply and distribution, Settle told us. Officials will know where the real need is, and can then ensure health centres don't run out of critical vaccines.\nPerhaps the most ingenious aspect of the project is that the software is both expandable and open source.\nIn the future, Tanzanian health workers will be able to use the database to support other projects, such as malaria or HIV treatment. Because it is open source, anyone can change the code that makes up the software, so other developing -- and developed -- countries will be able to adapt the system for their own use, creating their own health databases at little cost.\nOverall, the system is designed to eventually become a one-stop health information source, with every Tanzanian citizen having their own electronic health record.\nFor many donors who support international development, building a database isn't as sexy as building a hospital, but the impact is just as powerful. Just ask nurses, who spend less time doing paperwork and more time helping people. And the moms who sleep at night, knowing their children are safe from disease.\nBrothers Craig and Marc Kielburger founded a platform for social change that includes the international charity, Free The Children, the social enterprise, Me to We, and the youth empowerment movement, We Day.

In testing the Kona Electric to establish its homologated electric vehicle driving range, the independent organisation overseeing the process accidentally provided an incorrect testing methodology and then approved the results it generated. This led to the Kona Electric being tested for a disproportionate length of time on the WLTP \u2018urban\u2019 cycle \u2013 comprising lower overall vehicle speeds and a reduced energy requirement \u2013 resulting in an overestimation of the vehicle\u2019s all-electric range.\nThe Kona Electric in 39kWh specification is due to be recalculated with an AER combined range of 289 kilometers (180 miles). The AER of Kona Electric 64kWh is due to be recalculated with a range of 449 kilometers (279 miles).\nThe inconsistency in the test cycles has been identified due to Hyundai\u2019s ongoing homologation work, and this situation is being followed closely to arrive at a full explanation.\nHyundai is concerned to have learned that the officially recognised driving range of Kona Electric must be corrected and is taking this matter seriously. No other Hyundai vehicles are affected by this issue.\nHyundai Motor UK named electric vehicle manufacturer of the year",

        "raw_content": "Mount Greylock Girls Second, Boys Third at State Meet\n05:47PM / Sunday, November 18, 2018 Print Story | Email Story\nWESTFIELD, Mass. -- For some people, a 5-kilometer run through ice and snow and mud would be a frigid, treacherous ordeal.\nFor Mount Greylock Regional School senior Jesse Seid, it was a cool new experience.\n\u201cIt was a lot of fun,\u201d Seid said after placing 11th in Division 2 and leading the Mounties to third place in the team competition. \u201cIt was something different. We\u2019ve been racing on dry land for six years -- or I have.\n\u201cThis was nice change of pace.\u201d\nWhat did not change was Mount Greylock\u2019s presence at the top of the leaderboard. In addition to the boys\u2019 bronze, the Mounties girls, who won it all a year ago, finished second on Sunday behind Jackie Wells, who placed 17th overall and 11th out of runners from point-scoring teams.\nMount Greylock\u2019s boys moved up four spots in the standings from their 2017 finish in Wrentham. Familiarity with Stanley Park may have been a factor, but Seid had a different explanation.\n\u201cReally, we did well today, and I think one of the only reasons is our coach,\u201d Seid said. \u201cHe knew what he was doing. He had us do exactly the right preparation for the snow today. We had longer spikes today, which was a big, big help.\u201d\nMount Greylock coach Scott Burdick, who last week guided his program to a ninth straight Western Massachusetts title, on Sunday saw the Mounties finish behind Eastern Mass foes Newburyport and Seekonk. Seekonk\u2019s boys won D2 with 61 points and an individual title from Sam Acquaviva, who finished in 16 minutes, 33.89 seconds.\nSeid was 47 seconds back, crossing the line in 17:20.98. His teammate Josh Cheung placed 19th in 17:37.92. Also scoring for the Mounties were Jacob Fink (18:17.39), Oliver Swabey (18:24.53) and Theo Sandstrom (19:03.95).\nOn the girls side, Littleton won the D2 crown with 81 points. Mount Greylock finished with 119, outdueling third-place Lenox (149 points) for the second straight week. Eight days earlier, the Mounties edged the Millionaires on the same course for the sectional title.\nThis week, it came down to the fifth-place position, where Mount Greylock seventh-grader Lily McDermott placed 54th overall in 21:50.12 and 28 points ahead of Lenox\u2019s No. 5.\nBacking up Wells (20:27.10) were Josie Smith (20:29.75), Ainsley Abel (21:17.61) and Hazel Scullin (21:46.29).\nLenox\u2019s Ellen Huth (20:30.08) placed 20th overall, and Ava Bachman (20:57.18) was not far behind in 27th. Freshman Grace Elliot (21:12.34) was 33rd for the Millionaires.\nAs a testament to the depth of both the Lenox and Mount Greylock girls, there were four races on Sunday -- D1 and D2 in boys and girls. The top 15 individuals got medals. And in three of the races, the top three teams had at least one runner in that top 15 group. The exception: D2 girls, where Wells was the top finisher from either the Mounties or Millionaires and yet those teams beat out eight schools with runners finishing higher than her 17th place.\n\u201cWe had fun,\u201d Lenox coach Jeanne Teasdale said. \u201cThe season\u2019s been fun. We have two seniors leaving, so we\u2019re rebuilding our team for next year. And of course we have the track season in the spring.\n\u201cWe said if we finish in the top five, we\u2019ll be happy today, so if we finish third place, that\u2019s fine with us today. Would have liked to take that second, but, hey, it\u2019s timing.\u201d\nTeasdale said that early snow was a challenge, but her runners were ready.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been preparing them for different situations,\u201d she said, adding with a laugh, \u201cWe could have had them run in the sand. \u2026 It\u2019s the same condition for everybody, and we can just prepare, put in the right spikes.\n\u201cWe told them: You just have to be careful, going around turns and so forth, but everyone is in the same boat. They did their very best. \u2026 But we\u2019re happy no one got injured.\u201d\nLenox\u2019s girls and the Mount Greylock teams were the only local teams to qualify for the all-state meet, but there were plenty of Berkshire County harriers representing their schools as individuals, starting in the day\u2019s first race, the Division 1 boys.\nTaconic junior Jacob Paris ran a time of 19:04.22 in a field won by Arlington\u2019s Ryan Oosting (15:52.75).\nThe D1 girls race was won by Natick\u2019s Grace Connolly (18:14.28), who helped her team place first overall. The first county runner across the line was Wahconah\u2019s Haley Crosier (21:46.12). Right behind her was Pittsfield\u2019s Cami Diehl (21:56.78).\nWahconah twin seniors Gabrielle and Danielle Orlando capped their careers by finishing side-by-side, in 22:56.61 and 22:56.70, respectively. And Wahconah eighth-grader Alexis Henderson finished in 23:21.20.\nThe top Berkshire County finisher not from Lenox or Mount Greylock was Monument Mountain senior Grace Phair (20:50.01), who finished 25th overall as an individual in the D2 race. Lee freshman Brianna Kelly finished in 23:59.82.\nIn D2 boys, Lenox\u2019s Colin Young (18:23.39) and Monument Mountain\u2019s Peter LaRochelle (18:37.30) each finished in the top half of the field. Lenox eighth-grader Maxwell Adam broke 19 minutes, finishing in 18:56.89. Mount Everett\u2019s Grayson Duval finished in 19:08.65.\nMore photos from this event here.",

        "raw_content": "U.N. INVESTIGATING FRAUD COMPLAINTS\nWith the stakes so high, Mr. Allawi and other political leaders have issued a steady stream of public complaints alleging voter intimidation, ballot tampering, and other forms of fraud they say have cut into their support.\nMelkert said there were almost 100 lawyers supported by the U.N. who were looking into complaints that have ranged from missing names on voter registration lists to tampering with data entry at the voting centers.\nThe U.N. has sent teams to investigate complaints in Ninevah and Kirkuk, both of them politically sensitive areas where there have been a flurry of complaints of voter intimidation and tampering with the ballots.\n\"I have not to date seen a pattern of massive fraud,\" said a senior U.N. official who did not want to be quoted by name out of concern that the organization might be viewed as whitewashing complaints. \"What I do see is that in some places, some things have happened that for the time being can be seen as relatively isolated.\" He said those incidents could involve dozens among a total of 50,000 voting stations.\n\"Because we are concerned (with every complaint), we are sending teams now already to look at the place, to look at the warehouses, to compare all the relevant data that needs to be compared,\" he said.\nSLOW BALLOT COUNT FUELS SUSPICION\nCounting the almost 12 million ballots has gone more slowly than expected, also fueling theories by many Iraqis that the vote-counting process has been tainted. Preliminary results for all the provinces are expected in the next few days.\nAt the heavily guarded election headquarters in Baghdad's green zone, Iraqi and international observers in a viewing gallery watch on computer screens the same results being input by dozens of the 1,000 election workers. The figures are double-checked by political parties against those recorded by their own observers at polling stations.\nDespite - or perhaps because of - the safety checks, election officials this week fired six data processing employees after discovering problems with the figures being input. The move was widely reported as related to fraud, but U.N. sources speaking on condition of anonymity said it appeared to have been technical incompetence on the part of the fired election workers.\n\"I know (the process) is difficult because it requires patience, but I think it is worth asking for that patience because it is really a unique process that we are seeing,\" said Melkert.\n\"It is the second election for a parliamentary term, but it is the first time that it is completely in the hands of the Iraqis,\" he said, adding that he believed the Iraqis were capable of managing it.\n(McClatchy and the Christian Science Monitor have a joint bureau in Baghdad)",

Use the words and quote images to feed your brain inspiring things daily!\nThe best pop music is the songs that a group of people can dance to, but you can also listen to in your bed and cry. That's something obviously that The Beatles started and... so having that darkness there opens another door.\nDon't you think that the Beatles gave every sodden thing they've got to be the Beatles? That took a whole section of our youth - that whole period - when everybody else was just goofin' off we were workin' 24 hours a day!\nIf you're a guest [at my $113 million house], you'll be able to call up on screens throughout the house almost any image you like - presidential portraits, reproductions of High Renaissance paintings, pictures of sunsets, airplanes, skiers in the Andes, a rare French stamp, the Beatles in 1965.\nI like What Goes Around Comes Around for old concert tees. Oh man, I got this 'Sgt. Pepper' cartoon Beatles shirt there; it was, like, $300. I didn't even know how much it cost - I thought it was gonna be, like, $80 at most - till I got to the register and was like, 'Oh mah gawd!' Good Lord. But it's classic vintage rock, you know?\nI think I'm like The Beatles - I think each one I've done is better than the last one. And hopefully I'll never make a Let It Be.\nDownloadable music is the biggest musical phenomenon since the Beatles, and the music industry is slow to come to grips with that.\nI liked a lot of the things other people liked - Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Van Halen, AC/DC - but if I compared it to my dad's music, there just seemed to be elements missing.\nBeatles was 20th-century folksong in the framework of capitalism; they couldn't do anything different if they wanted to communicate within that framework.\nI grew up in the day when the Beatles sold 1 million singles in a week. And all you've got to do now is sell about 10,000 singles and you're in the charts.\nWhen I got into the Beatles, I must have only been about six or seven but old enough to take notice. We used to have an old radiogram which, for readers of a certain age, was like a big cabinet thing with a record player inside it.\nAlmost everything The Beatles did was great, and it's hard to improve on. They were our Bach. The way to get around it may be to keep it as simple as possible.\nWhen I was about 15, I picked up the guitar and learned how to play by going through Beatles chords books. I got this Christmas gift with the entire Beatles catalog.\nThe Beatles production is often so 'perfect' that it sounds computerized. 'Sgt. Pepper' really does sound like it took four months to make.\nThose original, black, spirited, defiant, rebellious musical masters. Chuck Berry was one of the first masters of Les Paul's new electric guitar; he pretty much laid down the gauntlet, and I don't think anybody's ever beat him since. Way before the British Invasion, I was tuned into the black guys that created the British Invasion. Without Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Lightnin' Hopkins, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry and the Motown hits, there would be no Beatles.\nThe Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.",

Here's the story. News,Retirement https://www.incomeinvestors.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Retirement-Savings-150x150.jpg\n100 CEOs Have as Much Retirement Savings as 41% of US Families\nCollecting $253,088 a Month in Retirement?\nPlanning for retirement is not easy. But if you are one of the top 100 CEOs in the U.S., you can look forward to monthly retirement checks of over $250,000.00! Yes, that\u2019s monthly.\nLast week, the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) published a report titled A Tale of Two Retirements. Using data from U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, the report showed that the 100 largest chief executive officer (CEO) nest eggs amounted to a total of $4.7 billion last year. These nest eggs are large enough to generate $253,088.00 in monthly retirement payments for each of these executives for the rest of their lives. (Source: \u201cReport: A Tale of Two Retirements,\u201d Institute for Policy Studies, December 15, 2016.)\nThe sum of the retirement funds of these 100 CEOs is equal to the retirement savings of the 41% of U.S. families with the smallest nest eggs, representing 50 million families and 116 million people.\nHow much can ordinary workers expect to collect when it comes to retirement checks? Well, according to the report, those who are lucky enough to have 401(k) plans had a median balance of $18,433.00 at the end of 2013, which would generate a monthly retirement check of just $101.00.\n\u201cWhile slashing jobs and benefits for ordinary workers, CEOs of large companies have been feathering their own nests,\u201d said Sarah Anderson, director of the IPS Global Economy Project and co-author of the report. \u201cIt\u2019s no wonder so many American workers are concerned about whether their golden years will be tarnished by financial stress.\u201d (Source: \u201cRetirement Divide: 100 CEOs v. the Rest of Us,\u201d Institute for Policy Studies, December 15, 2016.)\nOther than having much larger nest eggs, top CEOs also make quite a bit more than the average worker. According to the Economic Policy Institute, CEOs of America\u2019s largest 350 companies made an average of $15.5 million in 2015. The figure was 276-times the annual average pay of the typical worker. (Source: \u201cTop CEOs were paid 276 times more than the typical worker in 2015,\u201d Economic Policy Institute, July 12, 2016.)\nCEOs have always enjoyed bigger paydays than the typical worker, but over the years, the gap has widened.\nThe report showed that from 1978 to 2015, inflation-adjusted CEO compensation increased 940.9%, which is 73% faster than stock market growth and substantially faster than the 10.3% growth in a typical worker\u2019s annual compensation over the same period.\n\u201cCEO pay has grown far faster than the pay of typical workers, college graduates, or even the top 0.1 percent,\u201d said EPI researcher Jessica Schieder. \u201cSkyrocketing CEO pay isn\u2019t about the market for talent\u2014it\u2019s about what executives can get away with.\u201d (Source: Ibid.)",

        "raw_content": "Life Mental Health\nIreland has one of the highest rates of mental health problems in Europe, ranking joint third (along with France) out of the 36 countries surveyed in the annual Health at a Glance report. The last few years have seen a big increase in both awareness and support for people experiencing mental illness - however, one area that seems to be overlooked is diet, according to performance nutritionist Shane O'Rourke\nHere are some tips on how to up your intake of these brain-healthy foods\nA varied and healthy diet is important for mental health\nNutrition is fuel for the body and that doesn't just mean for muscles and bones, it also fuels the brain. In other words, what we put in our body not only effects our energy and our output but also how we feel. Many mental health conditions are accompanied with negative attitudes to food - for example, loss of appetite or binging on sugary snacks.\nhttps://www.independent.ie/life/health-wellbeing/mental-health/top-foods-to-boost-your-mental-health-according-to-this-performance-nutritionist-37773379.html\nhttps://www.independent.ie/incoming/article37784357.ece/03444/AUTOCROP/h342/boost.PNG\nIt has also been noted that various worrying food patterns that occur during depression also precede depression. These may include poor appetite, skipping meals, and an overwhelming desire for sweet foods.\nThere are multiple studies showing that the most common nutritional deficiencies seen in patients with mental health disorders are of omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Also, their consumption of carbohydrates in the form of fast-acting sugars is either very low, or excessive.\nHere are some tips on how to up your intake of these brain-healthy foods...\n1 Omega-3 fatty acids fuel your brain\nFor starters, it is important to know that the brain is an organ with one of the highest level of lipids (fats). Therefore, a diet rich in essential fatty acids fuels the brain. In fact, there are studies that show lowering cholesterol through diet and medication can increase depression as, through depleted fat intake, the brain gets less fuel.\nSo how do we get our hands on omega-3? The best sources of omega-3s are fish and seafood, especially oily fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring and sardines. In fact, there is a major correlation between countries with the lowest levels of mental illness and fish consumption - Japan, for example.\nOmega-3 probably isn't a phrase that's new to a lot of you; you may have fish oil tablets around the house but it's important to bear in mind that not all omega-3 supplements are the same and unfortunately, like most things, you tend to get what you pay for. Before buying any fish-oil supplement, make sure to check the label for dosage. While there is no official recommended daily allowance (RDA) for omega-3s, my advice is to look for a dosage over 500mg of combined EPA and DHA and it should roughly be a 3:1 ratio. It should be one of the first things you see on the label at the back and if not, it might be time to try a different brand.\n2 B complex is full of vitamin power\nB complex is a name given to all the B vitamins, of which there are eight in total. They are thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12). While all B vitamins are important for overall health, a few are particularly beneficial when it comes to mental health. High levels of B2 and B3 have been linked to increased mood, and vitamin B12 has been shown to offset some signs of dementia; in fact, depression, confusion and dementia are all listed by WHO (World Health Organisation) as signs of vitamin B12 deficiency. Low levels of B9 and B6 are also associated with depression and mood swings.\nThe good news for meat lovers is that red meat, poultry and eggs are great ways to get all eight B vitamins in, so too is the brunch-favourite avocado. Other good sources include whole grains, legumes, dairy and fruits. As mentioned above, deficiencies in B vitamins can be quite serious and are particularly prominent in vegetarians and vegans; especially B12 deficiencies. For any vegans who are worried about it, your GP can do a simple blood test to check, and consider taking a supplement to boost your intake. As B vitamins are water soluble, it's almost impossible to overdose on them.\n3 Carbohydrates are not the enemy\nCarbs have been completely demonised in recent years by fads like the Atkins diet proclaiming carbs are the cause of everyone's health problems when, in fact, nothing could be further from the truth. Carbs are our body's main source of energy, broken down by the body into glucose, which is either used immediately or stored in the body as glycogen for use when needed.\nCarbohydrates have also been found to affect mood and behaviour, as carbohydrate-rich foods promote the production of the chemicals serotonin and tryptophan in the brain. These chemicals are known to promote the feeling of well-being - therefore, diets low in carbohydrate tend to precipitate depression. As lack of appetite can often be associated with depression, the drop in carbohydrates can lead people to opt for fast-acting sugary carbs for quick fixes of energy. This isn't a good idea as that sugar high is quickly followed by a crash, and that low will only get worse as your diet deteriorates, and serotonin levels stay low. In order to keep these lows at bay, we should be eating carbohydrate-rich foods that are low on the glycemic index. A food's glycemic index is a figure representing its relative ability to increase the level of glucose in the blood. Foods that are lower on the index are harder for the body to break down and therefore energy is released more slowly, giving a steadier balance of energy throughout the day. High glycemic foods like sweets provide immediate - but temporary - relief.\nGlucose, the most simple form of carbohydrate, is not only the body's main source of energy but also the brain's main source. Unlike the muscles, the brain cannot store glycogen for later, so slow-release low-glycemic foods are ideal for optimal brain function. A quick google of the glycemic index will show you where most foods rank but a couple of the best are things like oats, vegetables and brown rice.\n4 Protein delivers amino acids\nProtein-rich diets are no longer just for bodybuilders; everybody from teens to pensioners can benefit from ample protein intake for their muscles and bones. Protein is also important in the body's healing process, and it can also be beneficial when it comes to your mental health. Proteins are made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks of the body. They are needed to create and repair tissue, a process that is constantly occurring in the body. There are 20 amino acids consisting of nine 'essential' amino acids, so called as they cannot be created by the body and must be delivered through diet. So, a high-quality protein diet should consist of all these essential amino acids.\nSo how does this help our mental health? A lot of the neurotransmitters in the brain are made from amino acids. The neurotransmitter dopamine, or the 'feel-good hormone', is made from the amino acid tyrosine; and the neurotransmitter serotonin mentioned earlier is created by tryptophan, another amino acid. If there is a lack of either of these two amino acids, the body won't be able to make enough of those neurotransmitters, which is associated with low mood and aggression.\nFoods that are rich in protein and essential amino acids include meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy. There are also some plant-based protein sources like pea, soy and grains, however they can be lacking in some essential amino acids and the absorption rate of plant-based proteins can be quite low. Again, for those who are vegetarian or vegan, protein intake is something to be mindful of as it can be challenging to hit the required levels without meat and dairy products.\nThe current recommended daily allowance for protein is a modest 0.8g per kg body weight, although many newer studies suggest that we should be aiming for closer to 1.2g per kg.\nProtein, carbohydrates and fats are the three macronutrients the body and mind need to function well. In getting a plentiful and healthy balance of quality macro- and micro-nutrients like vitamins and minerals, it could be the gamechanger for your happiest year yet.\nShane O'Rourke is performance nutritionist and tutor at APEC (apeccourses.com) and Head of Nutrition and Wellness with Umbrella Wellness (umbrellawellness.ie). Shane will deliver a talk on 'Nutrition & Mental Health' as part of Aware's Lecture Series on Wednesday, March 13 at 7.30pm in Swift Centre, St Patrick's Hospital, James' St, Dublin 8.

        "title": "Need-Blind | Confessions of a Community College Dean",
        "raw_content": "On the list or not on the list.\nDid you know that community colleges have need-blind admissions?\nThey do, but in discussions of need-blind admissions, they tend not to get mentioned.\nThe Boy\u2019s college search is kicking into gear, so I\u2019m relearning some of the lingo of the search. He absolutely refuses to stay in-state, so any local options are off the table. (At his age, I was the same way; I get it.) We\u2019ve been looking through websites and guides, doing Google searches, and, at my insistence, running Canadian tuition figures through exchange rate calculators. (I think I\u2019m gonna lose that one.) And I keep marveling that the folks who put these guides together clearly don\u2019t have the first clue about how higher education works.\nFor example, for public flagship universities, it\u2019s easy to find acceptance rates and average SAT/ACT scores, but hard to find them broken out by in-state/out-of-state. (I\u2019d be happy to be proved wrong on this.) If you\u2019re from, say, New Jersey, and looking at public universities in, say, any other state, that can be a challenge. Averaging in-state and out-of-state together distorts both.\nThe real shock for me, though, is the concept of \u201cgapping.\u201d As a society, we\u2019ve decided that it\u2019s okay that most students at most colleges don\u2019t get enough help to attend without preposterous personal or familial financial strain. There\u2019s something deeply weird about that. It\u2019s to the point that there are lists of exceptions, most of which are hyper-wealthy themselves.\nHere\u2019s where Sara Goldrick-Rab\u2019s work comes in handy. In states like Tennessee, where free community college is a reality, it\u2019s a short step from \u201cneed-blind,\u201d which they clearly are, to \u201ccommitted to meeting full financial need.\u201d It would be an American irony to see the list of \u201cfull financial need\u201d schools forming a sort of U-shaped curve on the prestige hierarchy: the Harvards and the community colleges would be on the list, and the middle wouldn\u2019t. That seems a little on-the-nose as a critique of our culture, but there it is.\nMost four-year schools are neither \u201cneed-blind\u201d nor committed to meeting full need. Instead, they reserve the right to offer preferential admissions to those who can pay cash on the barrel, and to offer less aid than most students actually need; making up the difference is the students\u2019 problem. If I were designing a system to frustrate the masses, I couldn\u2019t do much better than that. The difference between the aid offered and the aid needed is the \u201cgap,\u201d and the practice is called \u201cgapping.\u201d\nAs a mechanism for leaving talent on the table, it\u2019s remarkably efficient.\nKudos to Tennessee and Oregon for calculating, correctly, that they have more potential talent in their citizenry than a \u201cgapping\u201d system would foster. If we were serious, as a culture, the concepts of \u201cneed-blind\u201d and \u201cfull financial need met\u201d would simply be assumed. That\u2019s how you bring out the best. I\u2019m not blaming the colleges that don\u2019t meet full need; it\u2019s presumably a budget-buster for most. But that\u2019s sort of the point.\nIn higher ed policy circles, we hear a lot about a \u201cskills gap.\u201d I\u2019m more skeptical of that term than some, but I\u2019m struck that for all that we hear about the skills gap, we don\u2019t hear about gapping. Stop the latter, and the former will fade quickly.\nTalent is need-blind. If we want more of it, we know what we have to do.",

Equipped with 2 consulting rooms, a recovery room and a reception, it can also be used for minor operations. Using a school classroom, it is also used for educating the community about health issues.\nConsultations at the health clinic are heavily subsidised, with a typical visit to the doctor or nurse costing 50 Kshs (about \u00a30.35, $0.50). The difference between the actual cost and the subsidised cost is made up by Osiligi. It typically costs around \u00a3330 or $500 per month to subsidise the clinic. We are aiming to have the clinic self funding by around 2019.\nWe are keen to encourage specialist doctors, surgeons, dentists etc. to visit and help the children and community.

        "raw_content": "Circles of life: C.W. Nicol counts annual growth rings on an ancient oak felled by the Forestry Agency on Mount Kurohime in 1983. | RYUICHIRO SUZUKI\nForest horror led to an honor from 'foes'\nAs I write this in my home outside Kurohime, it\u2019s astonishing to realize it has been 36 years since I came to live in the hills of northern Nagano Prefecture.\nBack then, as I still am, I was eager to learn more about the wildlife and legends of our mountains, so I studied to get the permits I needed to join the local hunting association. Actually, though, the members generously let me go along with them as a beater even before I\u2019d completed all the exams and shooting tests and satisfied all the police checks required to qualify for my gun and hunting licenses.\nAfterward, in April 1981, I joined a \u201cpest extermination\u201d hunt for hares on the slopes of nearby Mount Reisenji and Mount Iizuna. We left our vehicles on the side of the road to Togakushi then made our way down the steep, forested valley of the River Torii before heading up the mountain slopes.\nWe all carried traditional round kanjiki snowshoes, but we didn\u2019t have to use them. There had been a tremendous amount of snow that winter and it lay 4 to 5 meters deep on the mountain. However, warmer sunny days and cold, freezing nights had compacted it so that even a person of my size could hike along without sinking up to their knees.\nIt was a glorious day. The bright sun had warmed the bark of the trees, bringing out insects that attracted many little birds such as nuthatches and tits both great, varied and long-tailed that flitted through the higher branches, merrily chirping and cheeping, while jays screeched and scolded and hawks trilled as they circled above.\nThe pristine, snowy floor of the forest was a crisscrossed storybook imprinted with the tracks of foxes, badgers, tanuki (raccoon dogs), weasels, martens, squirrels \u2014 and plenty of hares.\nThat day we also saw the tracks of seven bears, including a mother and two small cubs that had recently emerged from their winter den, and we actually saw four, though I was relieved we didn\u2019t have a special permit to hunt them out of season. Ours was for hares, not bears.\nWe hiked through magnificent stands of beech, oak, elm, magnolia, mountain cherry and dozens of other trees, many of them very old. At noon we built a fire, ate our rice balls, brewed tea and roasted the hearts, livers and entrails of the first hares the hunters shot, grilled on sticks and lightly salted.\nThe variety of trees and the age of the forest was the reason for the profusion and diversity of its wildlife. For me it was a wonderful day. I was learning so much from my companions. Leaves had not begun to bud, so through the trees we could see the little town below, as well as Lake Nojiri and Mount Madarou beyond, and then further to the Shiga mountain range. I could see cars, buses and lorries and and even hear trains somewhere far away as their sound carried on a gentle wind \u2014 yet we were up in the realm of ancient trees and bears.\nI filled several pages of my diary that night back in the old thatched house my new wife and I had rented.\nJust 12 months later, in April 1982, I packed some simple camping and survival gear, and a camera, and returned to the same forested slopes we\u2019d hiked the previous year, hoping to get some photographs of bears.\nBefore I left I told my wife where I was going and left a note for the chairman of the hunting association explaining what I was doing and that it was my intention to bivouac for at least one night on the mountain.\nWell, it took me a few hours to hike up to where we had begun to see bear tracks the year before, but this time there were no tracks \u2014 or bears. In fact, there were no trees \u2014 just stumps.\nDismayed and horrified, I swept snow off several of the bigger stumps with my knife so I could count the annual growth rings. The oldest of the trees had been growing there for more than 400 years.\nBitterly disappointed and intensely angry, I hiked back down and went to the house of the chairman of the hunting association. This time he was at home and apologized for not being there when I\u2019d called in the morning.\n\u201cWe could have told you,\u201d he said, \u201cthey cleared those slopes last autumn, while you were away.\u201d (I had been filming a documentary in Scotland.)\nThen he informed me of plans the national government\u2019s Forestry Agency had to fell yet more ancient forest on mighty Mount Kurohime that overlooks the whole area.\n\u201cYou ought to go to the media with this stuff,\u201d I urged him. \u201cIf they cut down all those old forests, the bears are bound to come down to feed in fields and orchards because there\u2019ll be nothing left for them on the mountain.\u201d\nWith a resigned look on his face, the chairman waved the suggestion away, saying, \u201cJapanese don\u2019t listen to other Japanese.\u201d\nThat was the beginning of a battle I had with the Forestry Agency that lasted more than 20 years and took me all over Japan.\nWe debated face-to-face in both private and public meetings, I gave dozens of lectures and wrote even more articles, and I even made television documentaries strongly criticizing the agency\u2019s policies. Mind you, during that time I strictly avoided any personal comments, and never tried to stab anybody in the back.\nI also spent most of the money I earned from books, TV appearances and adverts on restoring abused and neglected woodland to healthy diversity \u2014 and several of the officials with whom I argued became trusted friends.\nIn many other countries, criticism of the government by an outsider could have unpleasant consequences. In Japan, though, we still have freedom of speech.\nIndeed, on May 14 this year, at the Iino Hall in Tokyo\u2019s Chiyoda Ward, the National Land Afforestation Promotion Organization, an affiliate of the Forestry Agency, awarded me the 26th Green Culture Prize for my efforts in and on behalf of the nation\u2019s woodlands. Princess Mako, the oldest granddaughter of the Emperor, was in attendance, as were the brass band of the Tokyo City Fire Brigade and a choir of 84 children, among others, of course.\nIt made me very proud. I have never resented visiting forests all over the place, in rain, sleet, snow and even when they\u2019re plagued by summer bugs, but I could have done without the stress of campaigning, lecturing, arguing and sitting on committees that seemed to endlessly hold meetings. It was all worth it, though.\nMoreover, I am proud and honored to have been a citizen of Japan since 1995, and if I ever have any problems with anything in this country in the future I\u2019ll do my best to tackle them head-on, with honesty and a willingness to listen \u2014 and without any personal rancor. That\u2019s the way the Japanese government has dealt with me, and I am humbly grateful for that.\nThe Emperor and Empress are scheduled to visit the C.W. Nicol Afan Woodland Trust in Kurohime, Nagano Prefecture, on June 6. It will be my great pleasure and honor to guide them on a tour of our beautiful woods and streams and ponds, and readers of Old Nic\u2019s Notebook published on July 3 will be able to share in our big day, too.\nNagano, forests, C.W. Nicol Afan Woodland Trust, Mount Kurohime",

A very classic Yquem. Breathtakingly wide spectrum of floral honey, exotic fruit (passion fruit, mango and pineapple), caramel and marzipan aromas. But none of this is a jot too much. In fact, the wine is extremely precise and finely nuanced. Wonderful freshness and textural complexity, in spite of the considerable concentration and extravagance.

(WA 95-97 points) The 2016 Ch\u00e2teau d'Yquem was picked over four tries through the vineyard, commencing on 27 September and finishing on 4 November. The crucial pass through the vines took place between 18-22 October when over half the crop was picked. In fact, 75% of the crop was picked during the final two weeks of the harvest. It has 14.2% alcohol and a residual sugar level of 135 grams per liter, a pH of 3.80. A classic blend of 75% S\u00e9millon and 25% Sauvignon Blanc, it has a comparatively nuanced bouquet compared to Yquems that I have encountered at this stage. It opens gradually with light honeyed aromas, white flowers, apple blossom and just a touch of honeysuckle, although it does not possess the bravura personality of the astounding 2015. The palate is medium-bodied with a viscous opening, a subtle spice note leaving the mouth tingling. This is a fresh Yquem, tensile with moderate weight and delivering, perhaps belatedly, fine attack on the finish lined with subtle lemongrass notes. It will be interesting to plot the progress of this Yquem throughout its barrel maturation. This is an excellent Yquem no doubt, though I was missing that nerve, the labyrinthine complexity that can mark a top-tier Yquem even at this premature stage. I suspect that this will drink earlier than others, but age in a style only it knows. - Neal Martin\nVinous, April 2017\n(VN 94-97 points) The 2016 d'Yquem is a magical wine.

(VN 94-97 points) The 2016 d'Yquem is a magical wine. It also looks like an Yquem that will drink well right out of the gate. Like so many of the better wines in this vintage, it manages to express richness while avoiding excess heaviness. Pineapple, orange marmalade, exotic flowers and spice all blossom in the glass. There is a real sense of phenolic richness and overall viscosity to the 2016 that adds to the wine's singular personality. The 135 grams of residual sugar are not especially evident. In 2016, the vineyard was harvested in four passes, but it was not until after the October rains that noble rot started to appear on the vine. -- Antonio Galloni\nWine Enthusiast, April 2017\n(WE 95-97 points) The bouquet opens with aromas of honey and citrus, offering richness and freshness at the same time.

(WE 95-97 points) The bouquet opens with aromas of honey and citrus, offering richness and freshness at the same time. The mouthfeel is opulent, with honeyed flavors. There is some acidity underneath, although decadence and concentration are its defining attributes. It will age for decades.\nChateau d\u2019Yquem holds just under 300 acres of vineyard land on gravelly, well-drained soil, but only uses about 250 to make wine in any given year. The remainder is due to a program of continual replanting which ensures that producing vines are always in their prime. And the vineyard is planted only to Semillion (75%) and Sauvignon Blanc (25%), eschewing Muscadelle which is commonly used in the area but makes less distinguished wine.\nWithin an hour of harvest, the grapes of Chateau d\u2019Yquem are in the winery and being pressed. Unlike most white wines, quality actually improves with multiple pressings as that extracts more sugar and flavor intensity. Chateau d\u2019Yquem three or four times, with the initial effort yielding about 75% of the total volume.\nChateau d\u2019Yquem does all its fermentation in new French oak barrels. This is unsual for Sauternes, but results in the most flavorful and pristine wine. Although there is variation from one vintage to the next, the typical Chateau d\u2019Yquem wine finishes fermentation at 13.5% alcohol with 150 grams/liter of sugar.\nAll the barrels age for six to eight months after fermentation. At that point, under-performing barrels are set aside. The remaining barrels go to the aging cellar for 20 months, where they are topped up twice weekly to maintain freshness. For pure flavors and clarity, the wines are also racked 15 times and then fined before the final, blind tasting which determines the blend that will go into bottle.\nAlthough not always very outgoing when young, Chateau d\u2019Yquem is marked by fruit (apricot, mandarin, and occasionally tropical fruit) and oak (vanilla and toasty aromas). Older vintages, on the other hand, have an extraordinarily complex fragrance as soon as the bottle is opened, with hints of dried fruit (dried apricot, prune, stewed fruit, and marmalade), spice (cinnamon, saffron, and liquorice), and even flowers (lime blossom, etc.). The first impression of Chateau d'Yquem on the palate is always very silky, and often sumptuous. It then fills out, \"coating the palate\". This fine wine has a strong, but never overbearing character, with great elegance and poise. It always maintains a balance between sugar and acidity (sweetness and freshness). A touch of bitterness can also contribute to the overall harmony.\nSauternes is the best and most sought-after region for dessert wine in Bordeaux, perhaps in all of France. Chateau d\u2019Yquem is the most celebrated of all Sauternes producers.\nThe history of d\u2019Yquem can be traced back to 1593, when local nobleman Jacques Sauvage became the feudal overseer of the property. The area was already home to late-harvest wines even then, and the Sauvage family moved things forward, creating \u201cmodern\u201d vineyards\u2014and the famous chateau\u2014on the unique hill that contributes to d\u2019Yquem\u2019s outstanding quality. In 1711, the Sauvage family became full owners of the property and managed to retain it through the French Revolution.\nThe quality and reputation of Chateau d\u2019Yquem wine improved as the vineyard was methodically expanded and enhanced. By the late 18th century, it was celebrated internationally and counted Thomas Jefferson among its staunch supporters. But the house continued to innovate and better its practices. The constructed a large, purpose-built cellar for maturation and aging in 1826 and, not long after, began harvesting in multiple passes to optimize fruit quality. This work was rewarded when Chateau d\u2019Yquem was designated the only 1er Cru Superieur dessert wine in the famous 1855 classification of Bordeaux wines.\nETA: Jun. 2019\n1 bottle 2 bottles 3 bottles 4 bottles 5 bottles 6 bottles 7 bottles 8 bottles 9 bottles 10 bottles 11 bottles 12 bottles 13 bottles 14 bottles 15 bottles Add to cart\n1 bottle 2 bottles 3 bottles 4 bottles 5 bottles 6 bottles 7 bottles 8 bottles 9 bottles 10 bottles 11 bottles 12 bottles 13 bottles 14 bottles 15 bottles\nShop all vintages & sizes of Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes Blend\nIf you like 2016 Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes Blend, you might also like",

        "raw_content": "Property Clearings & Blessings\nOur home, our land, our office space and even our belongings can hold or carry different energy forms. These energy forms can be benevolent, malevolent, or something in between. They might be associated with the property or space itself, a particular human or maybe an animal that lives on the property or may be attached to an object that is on the property or in the space. It's always good to understand the consciousness of these energetic attachments and to be able to work with them or remove them if they are having a negative effect by creating disruption or drama.\nVery often, undeveloped land holds it's own purpose and power. It's important to be able to communicate with the consciousness of the land to assist it in bringing forth its gift and offerings. You would be amazed at how different the energy feels on land that has been honored, respected and recognized for what it has to offer, versus land that is unacknowledged.\nJoBeth works with energetic attachments and disturbances to bring clarity, understanding, removal (if needed) and clearing. She tunes into and works with the consciousness of specific pieces of land to assist in more effective use of the land's innate gifts and power.\nAs JoBeth does this work she helps property owners gain an understanding of what created the attachments, what lessons or learning can be gleaned from the experience, how to do energetic clearings themselves or how to work in conscious coordination with their land. JoBeth enjoys teaching others how to do these things themselves so they feel empowered to consciously work with their own spaces, intentionally correcting and changing the energy as needed.\nClearings and/or land blessings take 90-minutes to 2 hours. Locations within 30 miles of Spokane are $125 and up to 75 miles are $150.",

It\u2019s at the International dealership in Frederick, Maryland. I don\u2019t have an estimate on it yet.\u201d\nThe ambulance was taking someone to the Berkeley Medical Center when it was hit, Bragg said.\n\u201cThe driver of the car refused transport, but we picked her up later and she went to the hospital,\u201d he said.\nNone of the occupants of the ambulance were hurt, he said.\nMartinsburg City Council members will be asked at their regularly scheduled meeting on Thursday to vote on a resolution approving the lease of the ambulance.\n\u201cThe city of Martinsburg is without sufficient ambulances to provide for the safety and life-saving functions required by citizens of the city of Martinsburg,\u201d the resolution reads.\nThe accident happened last month, leaving Martinsburg with two ambulances.\nThe Fire Department has been leasing a 2013 Chevrolet ambulance from the BCEAA for $75 per day since Jan. 23, according to the lease. The Fire Department is responsible for maintenance.\nThe ambulance involved in the accident was one of three 2015 International Navistar ambulances that have been plagued with engine problems, sending them to the shop for repairs nearly as often as they have been in service.\nAt the City Council\u2019s meeting in January, Bragg said International Navistar had made repairs and upgrades to fix the chronic problems, but they had not taken care of the issues.\nCity Council members gave Bragg the OK to buy a new 2017 Ford F-550 4\u00d74 truck with an American Emergency Vehicles ambulance box. It is being assembled at AEV\u2019s plant in Jefferson, North Carolina.\nThe cost is $227,832 plus additional equipment, bringing the total to about $358,000.\nBragg said he hopes the new ambulance will be delivered by the end of the month. He plans to update council members on the ambulance situation at their meeting Thursday.\nThe City Council meets at 6:30 p.m. in the J.

        "title": "Book Review - 'I Am Mordred' by Nancy Springer \u2014 Joy V Spicer",
        "raw_content": "I\u2019d never read anything by Nancy Springer before and I\u2019d been dithering about getting this book for the longest time.\n\u2018From the start, Mordred\u2019s life is not his own. The great wizard Merlin has prophesied that King Arthur \u2013 the one True King \u2013 will die at his only son\u2019s hands, and everyone in Camelot knows it. Mordred himself knows it. All he wants is for his father to love him. All he wants is a way to fight his fate. And fight he does \u2013 to his father\u2019s fated death and his own.\u2019\nI love Arthurian tales, but wasn\u2019t sure I\u2019d like a tale that featured one of literature\u2019s most recognisable archvillains as the main character. Turns out I like the story \u2013 no, I love it. Very much.\nAbout her story, Nancy Springer has this to say:\n\u201cAre all children born innocent? Not according to the medieval worldview. A child born wrongfully \u2013 out of wedlock, for instance \u2013 could be assumed to be bad right from the start. When young King Arthur, then, made the mistake of having sex with his sister, the resulting child was assumed to be morally evil\u2026 Mordred was born guilty, condemned as his father\u2019s killer long before the deed was done. It was fascinating to approach the traditional Arthurian material from the modern point of view that Mordred was born innocent\u2026\u201d\nExcept for the prologue, Mordred\u2019s is the voice that takes us through the story, and he proves to be quite the charming guide; there is nothing sneaky or crafty about him. His innocence, his confusion and growing turmoil are realistically depicted, just what you would expect from a teenager trying to find his place in the world.\nAnother character who Springer presented as more complex, more complete was Nyneve, or Nimue, as she\u2019s more commonly known. The Nyneve that I\u2019ve come across in other Arthurian tales never appealed to me, but I fell in love with Springer\u2019s version.\nFor those who know the stories of Arthur and his knights, of Camelot, will recognise the familiar points, which are all present. Springer has taken those points and used them to enhance her telling of the tale, making them flow into what could pass as a true-life version of events.\nShe has a graceful, easy style, which evokes a bygone age while still using every day, familiar language.\n\u201cThe wind blew cold off the sword-gray sea\u2026\u201d\n\u201cIt was a strange, exalted and terrible thing to be the King. Everything he did sent out echoes like a great bell.\u201d\n\u201cAcross a rising sweep of green meadow, there it stood, the flower of castles, tower above tower above outer wall and inner wall and barbican and bastions and keep, as mighty as if it had grown out of the bones of earth, as if the stone giants had raised it there, but \u2013 shining white. Not stony gray but white, like cloud froth, sea spray. Camelot aspired so mighty yet so water-lily white in the morning sunlight\u2026\u201d\nAlthough the book is marketed for a young crowd, the subject matter could be considered adult. Springer doesn\u2019t shy away from talking of violent, bloody acts but there are no gratuitous details. And it\u2019s a story that makes you think, talking as it does about questioning your fate, fighting your fate.\nI\u2019m aware this isn\u2019t a long, detailed review, but I feel to say more would be to give too much away.\nI found this a beautiful story, masterfully told in just over 180 pages. Springer has woven a tale that, for me, has become the definitive version of Mordred. The ending made me cry, and it\u2019s not just because I knew how it had to end.\nA very well-deserved 5* from one very satisfied reader.\n\u2190 Book Review - 'The Phoenix Codex' by Bryn DonovanBook Review - 'Entwined' by Heather Dixon \u2192",

This medium-bodied, elegant, compelling C\u00f4te R\u00f4tie will drink well for 10-15 years. 92-94/100\"\nJeb Dunnuck / jebdunnuck.com\nAbout Paul Jaboulet Ain\u00e9\nFor nearly two hundred years, the hillsides of Hermitage have jealously guarded the secret of a meeting that was to be the start of an extraordinary story\u2026\nIn 1834, Antoine Jaboulet (1807 - 1864) started working the land in this region thereby linking his destiny with that of this fertile terroir. By dint of hard work and passion, his vines were to provide him with a wine of exceptional quality, to be perpetuated by his sons, Paul and Henri. It was Paul who then gave his name to the business. Since then, the generations have continued to succeed one another.\nThe Frey family, longstanding winemakers in Champagne and owners of Ch\u00e2teau La Lagune in Bordeaux, acquired Maison Paul Jaboulet A\u00een\u00e9 in January 2006, thus adding to its portfolio of prestigious names. Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Jaboulet shares the Frey family\u2019s passion for excellence.\nLa Chapelle, which is situated on the hillside of l\u2019Hermitage, looks out over the Rh\u00f4ne Valley. During the 13th century, the Chevalier de St\u00e9rimberg made it his home on his return from the crusades. Later still, it became the source of the family\u2019s flagship wine, l\u2019Hermitage La Chapelle. The 1961 vintage would be classed among the Twelve mythical bottles of the 20th century, and a small number of bottles and magnums are still kept by Jaboulet and in a few cellars elsewhere in the world\u2026\nFor nearly two centuries, Jaboulet has been producing wines that represent generations of hard work and a passion for excellence. In order to perpetuate these values, Jaboulet adheres to an unswerving commitment to improving vineyards, through strategic acquisitions and work in the cellars, while respecting the environment at the same time.

Jason and Chance talk about what it takes to maintain focus and remain motivated in spite of the many distractions that face young people today. Listeners of all ages will recognize life\u2019s challenges in Chance\u2019s words, and be inspired to stay on course, no matter what!\nCheck Out Chance's Football Highlights\n1. The challenges and temptations that face a successful high school star quarterback, are analogous to those that face seasoned real estate agents.\n2. Set-backs can be blessings in disguise if we learn to appreciate them, get back up, and get back into the game.\n3. We have to work every day. The process is as important as the goals. By following the process and living right, we can weather adversity.\n4. No matter what happens, our lives are a small part of God\u2019s plan.\n\u201cThe love of the game. I love the grind. I love working out. I love to go work out again, and push myself in the classroom.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cI get up at five almost every morning.\u201d \u201cThree days a week, I\u2019m working out at 5am, and the other two I usually go for a jog.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cI don\u2019t drink. I don\u2019t like to do any type of drugs. I just don\u2019t understand how people need that to have fun in the first place.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cWhenever you set goals for yourself and you\u2019re able to work for them, every day can be a step toward the goal, and every decision can be a step toward or away from where you\u2019re trying to get in the long run.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cEverybody has bad days. One day can be bad, and the next day can be the best of your life. I always try to start my day positive. Make your bed. You can have a horrible day all day, and still get home to a made bed, knowing that you started your day off with something positive.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cFocus only on what you can control. Take it day by day. Have coaches and mentors, but more than anything else, love the process; love the grind.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cMake smart decisions now and live better in your future.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cThose big games! The crowd is packed out. Everyone has to stand up, and then connecting on a deep ball, it\u2019s unreal! It\u2019s crazy. I just get that crazy feeling. I love it!\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cI kinda needed that shoulder to break. It\u2019s a whole new motivation to keep going and get to where I want to be. There are a lot of people who doubt that you can overcome something like that. I worked the whole year, and I don\u2019t want to leave. I don\u2019t care what\u2019s wrong with me.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cYou get to the point where you get complacent. Something like that (injury) happens and takes it all away from you. You\u2019re back at rock bottom, and you have to restart. It\u2019s something you have to work for all over again. It sucks, but you need that motivation every once in a while.\u201d - Chance Newman\n\u201cWithout God, without faith, what is your purpose?\u201d - Chance Newman",

        "raw_content": "This week, we\u2019re going to be looking at the limits of an employee\u2019s duty to mitigate following a constructive dismissal through the 2012 case of Farwell v. Citair Inc.\nFor a quick refresher, check out our blogs from the archives on constructive dismissal and the duty to mitigate.\nFarwell v. Citair Inc. \u2013 The Facts of the Case\nMr. Ken Farwell worked for Citair Inc., a manufacturing plant in Hensall Ontario. He started at the plant as a general labourer in 1971 and was promoted five times over the course of 38 years. His final promotion was in 2004 to the position of Vice President of Operations.\nIn 2009, Mr. Farwell was told that he was being returned to his position of Purchasing Manager, a position he hadn\u2019t held since 1993. Mr. Farwell declined to accept this demotion. Nonetheless, a short time later, Mr. Farwell\u2019s boss announced to the company\u2019s employees that Mr. Wayne Meidinger, an employee Mr. Farwell had previously overseen, would be taking over Mr. Farwell\u2019s VP position the following week. The boss said nothing of Mr. Farwell\u2019s new position.\nMr. Farwell was present at this meeting and felt deeply embarrassed and humiliated by this public announcement that a more junior employee would be taking over his position. Arguing that he had been constructively dismissed, he did not return to work.\nFarwell v. Citair Inc. \u2013 At Trial\nThe trial raised four basic issues:\nHad Mr. Farwell been constructively dismissed?\nIf so, what was the reasonable period of notice?\nDid he mitigate his damages?\nWas he entitled to damages for mental distress?\nIn court, Citair Inc. argued that, while Mr. Farwell\u2019s job title had changed, his salary and work conditions were fundamentally the same and that he had therefore not been constructively dismissed. Citair Inc. also argued that, by not taking the position as Purchasing Manager during the notice period, Mr. Farwell had failed to mitigate his damages.\nFarwell v. Citair Inc. \u2013 The Decision\nAt trial, the judge found that Mr. Farwell had been constructively dismissed.\nThe judge agreed with Mr. Farwell that the move from his position as Vice President of Operations to Purchasing Manager involved a substantial change in duties, responsibilities and, importantly, demoted status and prestige in the company.\nGiven Mr. Farber\u2019s age (58 years), length of employment with Citair Inc. (38 years) and high managerial position, the judge determined 24 months to be an appropriate length of notice.\nFurthermore, the judge found that Mr. Farwell had not failed to mitigate his damages by refusing the position of Purchasing Manager during the notice period.\nMr. Farwell found a position as a Purchasing Agent for Citair Inc.\u2019s competitor, Northlander Industries, approximately seven months after his dismissal. The judge determined that Mr. Farwell had made reasonable efforts to find comparable employment in the difficult economy of the time.\nThe judge found that Mr. Farwell was not obligated to take the position of Purchasing Manager during the period of working notice. Despite a similar salary and working conditions to his previous position, the judge noted that holding this position (which he had held years earlier) would have constituted working \u201cin an atmosphere of hostility, embarrassment or humiliation\u201d since he would be reporting to a previously subordinate employee.\nThe judge, however, did not find that Mr. Farwell was entitled to damages for mental distress.\nFarwell v. Citair Inc. \u2013 The Takeaway\nAccording to the Farber case, a demotion, especially one with diminished prestige and status, can constitute constructive dismissal. However, if Citair Inc. had asked Mr. Farwell to return to his VP position for the duration of the notice period, Mr. Farwell would have likely been required to do so.\nThe Farwell v. Citair Inc. decision suggests that, in cases of constructive dismissal involving a substantial demotion, employees will not have to mitigate damages by working the notice period in the diminished role.\nConstructive Dismissal Experts\nIf you believe you have been constructively dismissed though demotion or other circumstances, contact KCY at LAW\u2019s employment law team for expert representation.

You never have to accept a working situation in which your human rights are violated.\nWhile employment rights and entitlements may vary somewhat from one industry or contract to another, there are certain fundamental human rights to which all Canadian workers are entitled. These rights are laid out in the Ontario Human Rights Code, governing legislation and employment laws.\nWorkplace discrimination can take many forms: a woman is paid less than her male co-worker for the same work; a candidate is not hired because of their age; an injured employee is not given reasonable accommodations during their recovery, or is terminated while off on sick leave or shortly after their return to the workplace.\nDiscrimination is not just about job opportunities or pay equity. Discrimination can impact all aspects of employment from applications to training to evaluations to promotions. Actively discriminating is illegal in any of these contexts.\nHow KCY at LAW can assist\nYou are entitled to a dignified and harassment-free work environment. However, advocating for yourself can be overwhelming. In addition to the trauma and isolation of discrimination, pursuing a human rights complaint can be a daunting task.\nAt KCY at LAW, we take all human rights complaints seriously. We are experts in employment law and can advise you of your rights; determine if they are being breached and advocate the strongest possible human rights complaint on your behalf.\nWe are a compassionate and expert team who have helped many clients pursue successful human rights complaints and get the compensation they deserve.

Millennials average four jobs in the decade immediately after they graduate from college. This job-hopping trend\u2014coupled with the relative ease with which digital proprietary information can be transferred\u2014make it more critical than ever for employers to effectively protect their company, customers, employees and confidential information from walking out the door with their former employees.\nWe have seen a steady increase in litigation to enforce restrictive covenants such as non-compete, non-solicitation and confidentiality agreements. Businesses are increasingly looking to the courts to address the issues that arise when a relationship with valuable employees, clients or proprietary information is threatened. Employers and highly compensated executives need attorneys who understand the complexities involved in these disputes and the challenges and sensitivities involved when trade secrets or business reputations are at risk. Trade secret cases, in particular, are time sensitive; once the information is exchanged, there may be little recourse.\nWe have successfully handled a wide variety of these disputes, including claims for breach of employment contracts, trade secret misappropriation, unfair competition, breach of confidentiality, breach of fiduciary duties by officers, managing directors and other high-level employees of corporations, and breach of non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.

        "title": "U.S. Voters, Politicians to Blame for Ignoring National Debt Woes",
        "raw_content": "U.S. Voters, Politicians to Blame for Ignoring National Debt Woes\nLike my waistline, America\u2019s long-term debt situation has changed. With the S&P's downgrade of the U.S.' credit rating, we\u2019re belatedly accepting the truth.\nFriday\u2019s downgrading of U.S. debt by Standard & Poor\u2019s prompted a range of responses: Some people shouted in anger. Some cried. Some sent an angry message to their congressman. Some people, no doubt, made decisions about rebalancing their investments.\nSEE ALSO: 10 Key Takeaways From the Federal Debt Deal\nI responded by throwing away a pair of pants. Let me explain.\nI loved those pants -- black gabardine. Some happy moments, and some nice compliments, came my way while I was wearing those pants. Lately, though, my wife has been rolling her eyes whenever I put them on. I bought them a long time ago, when there was less of me. I have graciously accepted most aspects of aging, except for those pants. They were the last remnant of some good times, and I guess I didn\u2019t want to admit that those times are over.\nIt is much the same with America\u2019s triple-A credit rating. In many ways, we have adjusted to the changes in our economy over the years, but we have resisted reality in other ways. The United States\u2019 triple-A rating was an artifact of another time, and it had to change eventually. Fortunately, the practical implications of the downgrading aren\u2019t that great, because it represents facts that financial markets have largely adjusted to already. They might be volatile in the next few days, but once the dust settles, it will be obvious that America\u2019s relative position as the world\u2019s best credit risk hasn\u2019t changed.\nIn most ways, Americans have accepted how life has changed over the last few decades. It took a while, but most have come to believe that we don\u2019t need to manufacture the underwear, bicycles and everything else we consume in order to be a healthy economy. We have accepted that agriculture is a big business and not a way of life for most people, and we\u2019re finally considering big cuts to farm subsidies. We have accepted that health care expenses are growing too fast, and that something needs to be done about it.\nLike me with my pants, however, we haven\u2019t accepted the implications of longer life spans. We made a pension promise to retirees in 1935, setting a retirement age of 65 when life expectancy was 62 -- now it is 78. We haven\u2019t raised the Social Security tax rate for 20 years and the Medicare rate for 25 (while health care costs rose much faster than inflation). When it should have been obvious that we had to raise taxes and curtail benefits, we vastly expanded entitlements in 2004 to include prescription drugs. Meanwhile, voters continue to resist raising any taxes; remember that President Obama opposes hikes for 95% of taxpayers. We still can\u2019t agree on reducing spending -- even under the recent debt deal, discretionary spending will increase every year.\nStandard & Poor\u2019s was only facing reality. Back in the good old days (1990), government dropped everything and came to a bipartisan agreement when budget deficits exceeded 3% of annual gross domestic product. (Deficits were 9% of GDP last year, 10% this year.) At the time, the notion that public debt might climb above 40% of GDP was scandalizing. (It hit 69% this year and will reach 74% next year.) Politicians calmly discussed whether to fund entitlement programs for 25 years or 75 years. Even during some tough years in the 1980s when it looked like Japan and Europe had eclipsed the United States in economic prowess, there was never any doubt about America\u2019s ability to service its debts.\nOne reason the downgrade won\u2019t cause a stampede to other governments\u2019 bonds is that other wealthy countries have the same problems, and their leaders are similarly struggling to face them. Europe\u2019s major economies, by most measures, have government debts that are comparatively larger than ours, and their problems are compounded by the need to preserve the euro through a series of bailouts of struggling European Union members.\nThe S&P\u2019s move is also debatable. Fitch & Moody's maintained their triple-A ratings for U.S. debt.\nConsider the United Kingdom, which S&P still rates triple-A. Britain gets credit for making huge spending cuts (and raising taxes) while S&P rated our government dysfunctional. But the consensus in support of those policies in Britain is under siege as the nation\u2019s economy has ground to a halt, dashing its budget projections. So is Britain\u2019s debt a better risk in the next five years, which is S&P\u2019s timeframe? Include Britain\u2019s vast lending to its banks, and its debt-GDP ratio is 150%. While America\u2019s households have sharply reduced debt since 2008, Britain\u2019s haven\u2019t. Total public and private debt in Britain is 500% of GDP, versus 300% in America. The British government may have acted more responsibly than ours so far, but I would argue America is still in a better position to service its debt.\nJust as the credit rating agencies lost perspective in issuing high ratings for mortgage debt before the financial crisis, they failed to recognize the triple-A ratings bubble for rich, aging economies. S&P\u2019s downgrade represents a popping of that bubble. And just as the fallout from the mortgage and housing bubble will last a long time, solving the global problem of excessive debt won\u2019t be a quick process.",

You telexed on 10th October 1991 the issuing bank about negotiation and reimbursement claimed. On 12th October 1991 you receive a cable dated 11th October 1991 from the opening bank advising that the letter of credit has been revoked.\nOn 13th October 1991 you receive second cable marked \u2018URGENT\u2019 from the issuing bank claiming refund of $ 5,500 with interest at prime rate from 11th October 1991 till the date of refund, being reimbursement claim debited to their account with their Nostro correspondents in New York.\nWhat action will you take: (i) On the two cables received by you; and (ii) Refund of the amount with interest from your exporter client who has not yet withdrawn the amount credited by you.\nIt is not clear if the negotiating bank was the advising bank of the letter of credit. In that case its position would be safe. A revocable credit can be revoked at any time by the issuing bank, but the issuing bank is bound to reimburse another bank for any negotiation made by such bank prior to receipt by it of notice of cancellation, against documents which appear on their face to be in compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit (Article 8).\nWhere a letter of credit is advised through a bank, any amendment or cancellation of the credit should also be advised through the same bank. Therefore, if the revocable letter of credit had been cancelled, the cancellation would have been advised through the same bank. If the negotiating bank was also the advising bank, it could claim with certainty that the credit was not cancelled at the time of negotiation of the documents drawn under it.\nIn an open letter of credit, under which any bank can negotiate documents, it would be futile to expect the issuing bank to issue the notice of cancellation to all the banks in the beneficiary\u2019s country. The notice would have been issued only to the advising bank. In case the negotiating bank was not the advising bank, and by the time the documents were negotiated the notice of cancellation had already reached the advising bank the issuing bank could claim that the letter of credit had already been cancelled.\nIn either case, the negotiating bank can recover the amount from the beneficiary together with expenses incurred by the bank.\nWhat if L/C has been Issued by Importer Himself\nThe Mechanism of a Revolving Letter of Credit in Foreign Trade",

        "raw_content": "Why Should You Hire a Criminal Defense Attorney for a Misdemeanor?\nIf you're facing a misdemeanor charge, you're likely wondering if it would be worthwhile for you to hire a criminal defense lawyer to represent you or not. Many people make the decision to handle misdemeanor offenses without hiring an experienced attorney to be by their side, instead attempting to represent themselves in the courtroom or using the service of a public defender.\nThis isn't something we would recommend, as having an attorney as your legal representation can play a huge role in the outcome of your case. In fact, an attorney could help lower your charges or even get them dropped altogether.\nRepresenting Yourself in the Courtroom\nThe Sixth Amendment of the Constitution gives citizens the right to seek legal representation in all criminal cases. However, some jurisdictions actually allow a defendant to act as their own representation, instead of obtaining an experienced attorney. In order to do this, you would have to request the permission of the court and you'll need to have a separate proceeding to present any knowledge that would make you qualified to take on this role.\nIn most cases, people are not able to prove they have the skills and understanding required to represent themselves in the courtroom. In this case, the court will require you to seek the aid of a public defender or another court-appointed attorney. If you do not qualify for either one of these, you will be forced to hire a private attorney on your own.\nIf a public defender or another attorney is appointed to you, you have no say in who takes on your case. You may wind up working with an attorney who is not the most experienced in criminal defense cases. For this reason, it's preferred that you seek out legal representation on your own so you can be sure you have someone qualified to take on your case when you head to the courtroom.\nWhy a Criminal Defense Attorney Can Help\nA skilled, qualified criminal defense attorney can easily make a difference in the outcome of your case. Although many people don't take misdemeanor charges seriously, they absolutely should. Any kind of criminal charge can leave you facing jail time, exorbitant fines, and will ultimately blemish your public record.\nA criminal defense attorney will be experienced after handling many cases and will have the knowledge of all the laws in your site. This will work in your favor in the courtroom because your attorney can put together a strong defense that could potentially keep you out of a jail cell. Don't be fooled into thinking only felonies will leave you serving time. Regular misdemeanors in the state of Rhode Island can have you facing six months to one year in of imprisonment.\nAs mentioned above, a criminal charge will leave an unsightly blemish on your public record for anyone to discover. If you are applying to jobs, attempting to get a loan, or even trying to secure housing, misdemeanor charges will show up in a background search. A simple online search could reveal every arrest you've ever had and details of your battle in the courtroom. However, the help of a criminal defense attorney could prevent any misdemeanor from leaving you with a permanent record that could be damaging to you in the future.\nThe ideal criminal defense attorney to take on your misdemeanor charges is one who is experienced and knowledgeable. You want someone who has a history of taking on a variety of cases for clients and getting favorable results in the courtroom. You want someone who is knowledgeable about all the laws and will be able to put together a strong defense to represent you in the most effective way possible.\nHaving a confident and capable attorney by your side when your case heads to the courtroom will make all the difference. It might just be the thing that keeps you out of jail and prevents you from having to pay expensive fines and hindering your future opportunities.",

        "raw_content": "The Often Endless Cycle of Driver\u2019s License Suspensions & Disproportionate Impact on Low-Income Residents\nDriver's license suspensions are a tool for penalizing, enforcing and deterring criminal behavior and traffic violations. In many instances, an initial license suspension, such as one for a six-month period, can lead to a series of events that will result in an individual not having a license for many years. Rhode Island has relaxed its penalties for driving under suspension recently; however, suspensions can be assessed for many reasons and the financial implications are often significant. Millions of U.S. residents have suspended driver's licenses, many of which are solely related to an inability to pay. Many lower-income Americans are well beyond their period of suspension, yet face insurmountable financial hurdles preventing them from driving legally again.\nA Self-Defeating Cycle: An Example\nFor example, a driver receives a $200 speeding ticket. He or she may send in the payment, or contest it in court, which ultimately will incur additional court costs. If unable to pay the court fine in full, the court may issue a state suspension on the driver's license, and the driver may not even be aware of it, and the court may issue an arrest warrant. Several weeks later, the driver is stopped and jailed for the contempt of court warrant and has his or her vehicle impounded. After a night or two in jail, the court imposes an additional $250 fine for contempt of court and court costs. Meanwhile, another $200 is needed for the vehicle release from the impound lot. In addition, the driver may face employment problems if work was missed while in jail awaiting court, and will need to find another way to travel to work for the time being. If and when he or she pays these costs, the driver will still need to pay a sizable license reinstatement fee.\nRhode Island Law Change\nIn 2016, the Rhode Island legislature made changes for first and second offenses of driving with a suspended or expired license. It is no longer a criminal charge, but instead a civil penalty subject to a fine of at least $250. Those crossing the state borders should be aware that first-time offenders in Massachusetts face up to 10 days in jail and in Connecticut up to three months in jail--plus fines.\nEmployment Related Problems & Limitations\nThose unable to drive may have limitations in their employment options based on transportation. If they have a suspended license, these options are further reduced because the pre-employment background screen shows the suspension, not allowing them to \u201cpass.\u201d They may be limited to the lowest paying jobs. License suspensions for those whose employment requires driving -- such as delivery workers, most contractor work, auto mechanics, outside sales -- are obviously facing a problem.\nOther Potential Driver's License Suspensions\nRhode Island law allows for suspending the license of juveniles who are truant from school, such as high-school dropouts.\nThose persons behind on child support payments in Rhode Island may have their license suspended.\nThose persons delinquent on state taxes may be unable to renew their driver's license.\nTwenty U.S. states now suspend driver's licenses of those persons behind on student loan payments.\nHaving a car is necessary to get to work in most locations throughout Rhode Island. A driver's license is necessary to drive that car. Without it, your employment is in peril. Without employment, you cannot pay fines and fees. Alternatively, with limited income, you may have a hard time to pay fines and fees to reinstate your driver's license. It is indeed a downward cycle that disproportionately affects those who have low-income jobs.",

        "raw_content": "ICC Bids for Inclusion of T20 Women\u2019s Cricket in 2022 Commonwealth Games\nCricket ANI Nov 26, 2018 02:52 PM IST\nICC Logo for representation purpose only (File Image)\nDubai, November 26: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday confirmed that they have submitted a bid for the inclusion of Twenty20 women's cricket in the 2022 Commonwealth Games slated to be held in Birmingham, England. The bid, which has been made in partnership with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), will see one of the world's fastest growing women's team sports apply to become part of the Commonwealth Games family. Reflecting on the same, ICC chief executive David Richardson said that cricket and commonwealth are perfectly aligned as 910 million cricket fans are from Commonwealth countries.\nHe further stated that Birmingham is a perfect place to launch this \"partnership\" as the city \"shares a rich and diverse culture and heritage.\" \"Cricket and the Commonwealth are inextricably linked and almost perfectly aligned with 910 million of cricket's one billion plus adult fans from Commonwealth countries. Creating a new partnership between women's cricket and the Commonwealth Games demonstrates the commitment both organisations have to grow women's sport and delivering greater equality, fairness, and opportunity in sport across the Commonwealth,\" Richardson said. \"Birmingham is the perfect place to launch this partnership as the city shares cricket's rich and diverse culture and heritage. 23 per cent of the city's residents have links to cricket playing nations outside the UK, the deep connection between cricket and Birmingham will bring people together and inspire future generations of players and fans of women's cricket,\" he added. The chief executive also expressed belief that including women's cricket in Commonwealth Games would provide a much-needed inspiration for young girls to take up the sport regardless of their background or culture. Mithali Raj Surpasses Virat Kohli, Martin Guptill and Babar Azam After Scoring 17th Half-Century During India vs Ireland, ICC T20 Women\u2019s Cricket World Cup 2018.\n\"We would like cricket to lead the way in the Commonwealth in inspiring more young girls to take up sport regardless of their background or culture. There's a saying that 'you can't be it if you can't see it' - imagine the impact of millions of young girls around the world watching women's cricket in the Commonwealth Games and being empowered with the knowledge that they too can play cricket, represent their country and compete on a global stage,\" he said.\nWhen asked why the same effort is not being made with regards to men's cricket, Richardson said that despite a lot of developments in women's cricket over the last few years, cricket for girls is not considered as a mainstream sport in many of their member countries. \"Women's cricket has come on in leaps and bound over the last few years but still in many of our member countries, it is not regarded as a mainstream sport for women and girls. Women's event in commonwealth games will allow us to certainly change that,\" he said.\n\"If we want to be ambitious about women's cricket then we need to make bold decisions. Women's event in Commonwealth Games will be one of those decisions that we would look back and say that it was a game changer for women's game. Amongst the men, cricket is popular in those countries. Women's cricket has got a little bit to make up,\" he added. Cricket has made just one appearance at the Commonwealth Games previously, with men playing in 1998 in Kuala Lumpur where South Africa stood on top of the podium.\nThe application for inclusion of women's cricket for Birmingham 2022 is part of the global strategy for cricket to inspire and empower women and girls around the world and to drive greater levels of inclusivity and opportunity throughout the sport.\nTags: Commonwealth Day David Richardson England and Wales Cricket Board International Cricket Council Kuala Lumpur\nWest Indies Pacer Shannon Gabriel Extends Unreserved Apology to Joe Root for \u2018Inappropriate Comments\u2019\nICC T20I Rankings: Kuldeep Yadav Vaults to Career-Best No 2 Spot",

You will continue to be eligible to participate in the Company's long-term incentive plans in a manner consistent with awards to other senior executives granted from time to time. Your annual long-term incentive award to be granted during fiscal year 2013 will be for a grant date fair value of $6,000,000 (as determined in accordance with Company practices, and provided that you are employed by the Company on such date) and otherwise will be determined in accordance with the structure and terms of annual long-term incentive awards granted to other senior executives at such time. All long-term incentive awards thereafter will be determined and granted in the sole discretion of the Board (or a committee thereof).\n5.One-Time Promotion Awards. On the Effective Date, you will be granted the following awards, as determined in accordance with Company practices:\n(a)An award of stock options having a grant date fair value of $2,000,000, an exercise price equal to the fair market value of one share of Company common stock as determined in accordance with the applicable long-term incentive plan on the grant date and will be subject to the same terms and conditions as (including a 20% per year annual vesting requirement), and which award will be set forth in a stock option award agreement that is substantially similar to, the annual award of stock options granted to senior executives during 2012.\n(b)An award of performance stock units having a target grant date fair value of $2,000,000, which award will be subject to the same terms and conditions as (including performance goals), and which award will be set forth in a performance stock unit award agreement that is substantially similar to, the annual award of performance stock units granted to senior executives during 2012.\n(c)An award of restricted stock units having a grant date fair value of $3,000,000, cliff vesting on the third anniversary of the Effective Date and otherwise having such terms and conditions as, and which award will be set forth in a restricted stock unit award agreement that is substantially similar to, the annual award of restricted stock units granted to senior executives during 2012.\n6.Employee Benefits; Policies.

The arbitration will be held pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association (applicable to commercial disputes). The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall include a statement of the essential conclusions and findings upon which the decision is based. Each party shall bear its own fees and expenses in connection with any such arbitration.\n(b)Arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be the exclusive remedy for all Arbitrable Claims. Either party may bring an action in a Michigan court to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Otherwise, neither party shall initiate or prosecute any lawsuit or administrative action in any way related to any Arbitrable Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may, in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement (including but not limited to the provisions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement), seek a temporary restraining order or injunction in a Michigan court restraining breach pending a determination on the merits by the arbitrator.\n(c)THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN REGARD TO ARBITRABLE CLAIMS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AS TO THE MAKING, EXISTENCE, VALIDITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.\n10.Forfeiture; Recoupment of Incentive Compensation.

        "raw_content": "5 key English contract law principles that every sports lawyer should know\nPublished 28 September 2017 | Authored by: William Clerk\nIt is difficult to overstate the importance of the law of contract to sports lawyers. Of course, it is obvious that commercial sports disputes often turn on principles of contract law (see, for example, Force India and Aerolab\u2019s litigation over misuse of aerodynamic design information).1 What is, perhaps, less obvious is that many regulatory or disciplinary sports disputes also turn on contract law \u2013 the basis (and therefore limits) of a sports governing body\u2019s power to sanction an athlete is founded on the contractual relationship between the athlete and the governing body. 2\nAs a result, it is vital that sports lawyers stay abreast of developments in the law of contract. However, it is also difficult for a specialist sports law adviser to do so \u2013 given contract law cases come thick and fast, and from a variety of different fields.\nThis article brings together and summarises what the author considers to be 5 key developments in English contract law from recent cases. At the outset, two points should be noted:\nThe cases did not concern sporting disputes directly. However, given the changes they have brought about in English contract law, they are ones which sports lawyers should be aware of.\nThis article is confined to the key English contract law cases and does not consider cases from other jurisdictions.\nOverview of the cases\nOver the last few years the UK Supreme Court (and the Court of Appeal) has provided an embarrassment of riches and has embarked upon reviews and restatements of several core English contract law principles. The five areas of contract law and cases covered are:\nInterpretation of contractual terms - Wood v. Capita Insurance Services Ltd3;\nImplied terms - M&S v. BNP Paribas Securities Services Trust Co4;\nAnti-variation clauses - MWB Business Exchange Centres Ltd v. Rock Advertising Ltd5 / Globe Motors Inc v. TRW Lucas Varity Electric Steering Ltd 6 -\nPenalty clauses - Cavendish Square Holding BV v. Makdessi; ParkingEye Ltd v. Beavis7; and\nIllegality - Patel v. Mirza8.\nThe cases and concepts will be explained in turn, and examples of their sports law context will be identified at the end of each section.\n1. The interpretation of contractual terms\nIn Wood v. Capita, the Supreme Court restated the law on the interpretation of contractual terms, and addressed the question of whether its earlier decision in Arnold v. Britten9 had changed the law in this key area.\nFollowing Wood v. Capita, the law on the construction (or interpretation) of contractual terms may now be stated as follows:\nA term must be construed giving primacy to the natural and ordinary meaning of the words used (Arnold v. Britten). This is particularly so where a contract has been negotiated and prepared by skilled professional advisers, or is highly sophisticated and complex (Wood v. Capita).\nIn construing the term by giving primacy to the natural and ordinary meanings of the words used, the Court must at the same time consider the term in its commercial context i.e. according to the factual matrix (Rainy Sky v. Kookamin Bank10). In this sense, the process of construction is a unitary process (Wood v. Capita).\nWhere there are rival constructions of a term, the Court may reach a view as to which construction is more consistent with business common sense. The Court should test rival constructions against one another. In this sense, the process of construction is an iterative process (Wood v. Capita; Re Sigma Finance Corporation11).\nThe clearer the natural and ordinary meaning of the words used, the more difficult it will be to justify departing from those words by recourse to commercial common sense and the surrounding circumstances (Arnold v. Britten).\nThe framework provided by the Supreme Court in Wood v. Capita is comprehensive, and puts an end to arguments relying on the false dichotomy of either (a) a textualist; or (b) a contextualist approach to the construction (interpretation) of contracts. The true position is that the Court must adopt both textualist and contextualist approaches when interpreting a contract: as stated by Lord Hodge (with whom Lords Neuberger, Mance, Clarke and Sumption unanimously agreed) at paragraph 13 of Wood v. Capita:\n\u201cTextualism and contextualism are not conflicting paradigms in a battle for exclusive occupation of the field of contractual interpretation. Rather, the lawyer and the judge, when interpreting any contract, can use them as tools to ascertain the objective meaning of the language which the parties have chosen to express their agreement.\u201d\nThe framework also confirms that, over the past few years, the Supreme Court has retreated back from the more flexible, \u201ccommercial\u201d (as it is often and ambiguously described) approach to the construction of contractual terms as most famously set out by Lord Hoffmann in Investors Compensation Scheme Ltd v. West Bromwich Building Society12. Instead, the Supreme Court has reasserted the importance of the language actually used in the interpretation of contracts.\nLord Sumption, speaking extra-judicially,13 has provided the following caution:\n\u201cIt is I think time to reassert the primacy of language in the interpretation of contracts. It is true that language is a flexible instrument. But let us not overstate its flexibility. Language, properly used, should speak for itself and it usually does. The more precise the words used and the more elaborate the drafting, the less likely it is that the surrounding circumstances will add anything useful.\u201d\nKey takeaway point\nThis warning, given hot on the heels of the Supreme Court\u2019s judgment in Wood v. Capita, needs to be heeded by all commercial and sports lawyers. It is vitally important that the words of any contract are clear, and unambiguous. A party may no longer be rescued by recourse to \u201cbusiness common sense\u201d.\nSports law context\nInterestingly, in the sports litigation context, recourse to \u201cbusiness common sense\u201d in order to oust the literal meaning of words used in contracts has never found favour with the courts of England and Wales. For example, in Premier Rugby Ltd & Ors v. RFU & Ors14 the Premiership Clubs asked the Commercial Court for a declaration that their players were not bound to be released for an impending international against the All Blacks. The Court was asked to interpret the applicable agreement (being the Long Form Agreement dated 24 July 2001) and, in doing so, counsel for Premier Rugby Ltd urged HHJ Mackie QC, \u201cnot to take too literal an approach\u201d15 and to give primacy to business common sense. The judge rejected this approach, and saw no reason to depart from the starting point, that \u201cone expects clauses to mean what they say\u201d16.\nIn M&S v. BNP Paribas the Supreme Court considered another key doctrine of English contract law: the implication of terms into a contract.\nAs a preliminary point, the Supreme Court confirmed that the twin concepts of (a) interpretation of contracts; and (b) implication of terms into contracts are distinct. They are \u201cdifferent processes governed by different rules\u201d (paragraph 26 per Lord Neuberger). The Court must first interpret the express terms of the contract before then considering whether any terms ought to be implied into the contract. Once more, this reaffirms the importance of the words actually used in the contract itself.\nOf wider significance still was the Supreme Court\u2019s review and restatement of the doctrine of the implication of terms. The Supreme Court relegated Lord Hoffmann\u2019s judgment in Attorney General of Belize v. Belize Telecom Ltd17 from what many had regarded as the leading judgment on the implication of terms, to \u201ccharacteristically inspired discussion rather than authoritative guidance\u201d (paragraph 31 per Lord Neuberger). In doing so, the Supreme Court reverted back to the orthodox statement of the doctrine provided by the Privy Council in BP Refinery (Westernport Pty Ltd v. Shire of Hastings.18\nFollowing M&S v. BNP Paribas, the law on the implication of terms (in fact) into contracts may now be summarised as follows:\nThe test for the implication of a term into a contract is (a) objective (b) falls to be considered at the time the contract was made. The Court is concerned with the views of \u201cnotional reasonable people in the position of the parties at the time at which they were contracting\u201d (per Lord Neuberger at para 21).\nA term is not to be implied simply because it is fair, or because the parties would have agreed to it if it was put to them. Both of these are necessary requirements, but are not sufficient in and of themselves to justify the implication of a term into a contract.\nA term will only be implied where:\n1.3.1. Either (a) it is necessary to give business efficacy to the contract; or (b) it is so obvious that it goes without saying. As to the requirement for necessity, this is a value judgment in each case - a party does not have to show \u201cabsolute necessity\u201d; it is enough to show that \u201cwithout the term, the contract would lack commercial or practical coherence\u201d (per Lord Neuberger, citing Lord Sumption in argument at para 21).\n1.3.2. It is capable of clear expression \u2013 in this context, anyone relying on an implied term ought to take care (a) to identify precisely what the term contended for is; and (b) to remain scrupulously consistent throughout any correspondence, in order to avoid falling at this hurdle.\n1.3.3. It does not contradict an express term of the contract \u2013 in practice, many cases on implied terms are defeated by the identification of a contradictory express term.\n1.3.4. It is reasonable and equitable (but it is likely to be reasonable and equitable if the above requirements are satisfied).\nThe test for the implication of terms into contracts is stricter than it had been assumed to be (post Belize v. Belize). As with Wood v. Capita the judgment of the Supreme Court in M&S v. BNP Paribas has moved away from a focus on what was \u201ccommercially reasonable\u201d for the parties to have agreed, and back towards what the parties had in fact objectively agreed. In Ali v. Petroleum Company of Trinidad and Tobago,19 Lord Hughes giving the opinion of the majority of the Board of the Privy Council emphasised the importance of this stricter approach:\n\u201cthe process of implying a term into the contract must not become the re-writing of the contract in a way which the court believes to be reasonable, or which the court prefers to the agreement which the parties have negotiated\u2026The concept of necessity must not be watered down.\u201d\nIt follows that legal advisers must take more care than ever to draft contracts that not only (a) admit of no ambiguity in the express terms used; but (b) are complete and comprehensive \u2013 nothing, however obvious, should be left unsaid.\nThis strict approach was recently considered in a sporting context in Marussia Communications Ireland Ltd v. Manor Grand Prix Racing Ltd20 where a Chancery Division judge (Males J) considered this new test in the context of a claim for trade mark infringement brought by Marussia. Manor defended by, amongst other things, asserting that there was an agreement between the parties into which a term was to be implied \u2013 that Marussia consented to Manor\u2019s use of its trade mark.\nWhilst this would not have been determinative of the dispute, the Court applied M&S v. BNP Paribas and held that there was in any event no basis for implying the term contended for into the agreement between the parties. In fact, such a defence had no real prospect of success.\n3. Anti-variation clauses\nStrictly speaking, Case 3 is not one case at all \u2013 but two. However, given (a) both cases were handed down by the Court of Appeal within months of each other in 2016; (b) they concern exactly the same question; and (c) MWB refers to and adopts much of the legal analysis on the relevant point in Globe Motors, they must be considered at the same time.\nOne of the most common boilerplate clauses in commercial contracts is an \u201canti-variation\u201d clause, which typically follows hot on the heels of (or immediately preceeds) an \u201c\u201c\u201d clause. The purpose of an anti-variation clause is, of course, to ensure that parties are held strictly to the terms of the contract that they signed, and that they may not avail themselves of the argument that in fact a slightly different agreement was entered into and/or that the terms of the agreement were changed subsequent to it being signed. The anti-variation clause has traditionally been an important weapon available to the parties in any claim for breach of contract; however, two recent decisions of the Court of Appeal have suggested that the clause may not provide as much (or indeed any) protection as previously thought.\nIn Globe Motors, the Court of Appeal considered an anti-variation clause and held (albeit obiter) that, in principle, a contract containing a clause that any variation was to be by agreement in writing could in fact be varied by an oral agreement or an agreement by conduct. In MWB, the Court of Appeal adopted the reasoning from Globe Motors \u2013 and held that an anti-variation clause did not preclude a variation being made.\nIn both cases, the Court of Appeal cited the principle of party autonomy \u2013 that is, that parties are free to make or unmake contracts at will, and are free to waive compliance with any terms of a contract as they see fit. It followed from this that the parties were as free to vary the terms of the anti-variation clause as they were to vary any other clause. Thus, a two-stage process of variation was in play:\nStage one \u2013 the anti-variation clause was itself varied to allow for variation of the remaining contract terms. However, the strict legal analysis of this stage is unclear:\n1.1.1. In MWB at para 89 Arden LJ considered that that the agreement to vary the anti-variation clause was itself a \u201ccollateral unilateral contract\u201d; in Globe Motors at para 107 Beatson LJ set out how the parties\u2019 words or conduct, \u201cmay give rise to a separate and independent contract which, in substance, has the effect of varying the written contract\u201d.\n1.1.2. Alternatively, the parties may have waived compliance with the anti-variation clause (see the discussion of waiver per Beatson LJ in Globe Motors at para 101).\n2. Stage two \u2013 the relevant remaining contract term was in fact varied.\nIn summary, and despite the uncertainty as to the strict legal analysis, there are now strong appellate authorities that anti-variation clauses will not preclude a party from relying on a contractual variation (provided the variation is supported by consideration). Taken at their highest, the effect of anti-variation clauses is simply to require more cogent evidence from a party seeking to rely on a variation who must show that the variation was in fact made despite the anti-variation clause being in place.\nPermission has been granted to appeal MWB to the Supreme Court, and it is hoped that the Court will provide increased clarity on the legal analysis at play behind the decision. In the meantime, in the wake of Globe Motors and MWB, advisers should be astute not to place too much reliance on anti-variation clauses, and instead should look to alternative means to provide contractual certainty.\nIn player/athlete contracts, one way of providing such certainty would be expressly to restrict the class of persons (in the contract itself) who are stated to have authority to vary the terms of the contract on behalf of the club \u2013 perhaps even to a single agent acting on behalf of the club. If this restriction is made known to the player/athlete in the contract, it will be very difficult to argue that any variation made by agreement other than with the relevant, identified agent is valid and binding; there will have been no ostensible or implied authority capable of binding the club.\n4. Penalty Clauses\nCase 4 (Makdessi) is again, strictly, two cases \u2013 though they were heard at the same time by the Supreme Court in conjoined appeals and must, therefore, being considered together.\nMakdessi concerned the law in relation to penalty clauses within contracts. At the outset (para 3) of the judgment of the majority (given by Lords Neuberger and Sumption), the Supreme Court noted that, \u201c[t]he penalty rule in England is an ancient, haphazardly constructed edifice which has not weathered well\u201d and later (at para 31), that \u201cthe law in relation to penalties has become a prisoner of artificial categorisation\u201d. The remainder of the judgment constitutes a comprehensive review and restatement of the law in relation to penalty clauses within contracts.\nAs with all the cases in this article, the facts of Makdessi are not directly relevant. What is relevant is the following summary of the Supreme Court\u2019s restatement on the law in relation to penalty clauses:\nThe penalty rule regulates the remedies available for breach of a party\u2019s primary obligations21, and not the primary obligations themselves (para 13). A conditional primary obligation cannot be a penalty (it does not impose an obligation to perform an act and a consequence for not doing so) (para 14). Put another way, the rule against penalties applies only in the context of a breach of contract (para 239).\nThe question of whether a clause is a penalty clause is a matter of construction, and falls to be considered at the time the contract was agreed (paras 9 and 243). Classification of a term as a penalty clause or otherwise depends on the substance of the term and not its form (para 15).\nPenalty clauses are not confined to stipulations for the payment of money (para 16). They may extend to obligations to transfer assets, clauses relating to the retention of deposits, or other sums (paras 16 and 228).\nThe rule against penalty clauses is substantive and not procedural (para 34). However, where there is an equality of bargaining positions, there is a strong initial presumption that the clause is legitimate i.e. that it is not a penalty (para 35).\nIf a clause is a penalty clause, it is unenforceable. However, the innocent party will still be left with his remedy in damages under the general law (para 9).\nA clause will be a penalty clause where:\n1.5.1. It does not serve to protect any legitimate business interest of the innocent party (para 152); or\n1.5.2. It imposes a detriment on the contract-breaker out of all proportion to any legitimate interest of the innocent party in the enforcement of the primary obligation it is triggered by (para 32). It will be out of all proportion to the legitimate interest where it is extravagant, exorbitant or unconscionable (paras 152, 244 and 255).\nMonetary compensation is not the only legitimate interest that the innocent party may have in the performance of the primary obligation (paras 28 and 32). The dichotomy between (a) compensatory vs. (b) deterrent clauses is a false dichotomy (para 131).\nThe four indicative tests formulated by Lord Dunedin in Dunlop Pneumatic Tyre Co Ltd v. New Garage and Motor Co Ltd22 are not strictures or a quasi-statutory code to be applied mechanistically; rather, they are considerations to be taken into account in deciding whether a clause is a penalty or not (paras 21 and 22).\nAdvisers need to be aware that the familiar test (which had been applied for over a century) for identifying a penalty clause \u2013 whether a clause is a bona fide liquidated damages clause on the one hand (enforceable) or a penalty clause on the other hand (unenforceable) \u2013 is no longer good law. Instead, the Supreme Court has set out a new test, which Lord Hodge pithily summarised as follows:\n\u201cthe correct test for a penalty is whether the sum or remedy stipulated as a consequence of a breach of contract is exorbitant or unconscionable when regard is had to the innocent party\u2019s interest in the performance of the contract.\u201d (para 255)\nIn 2008, having been constructively dismissed by Newcastle United, Kevin Keegan begun arbitration proceedings \u2013 and the case provides an illustration of the penalty doctrine being applied in sports litigation. Whilst Kevin Keegan was successful, he tried to argue that the liquidated damages clause did not apply (which limited his damages to \u00a32m) because, amongst other things, it was unenforceable as a penalty clause.\nThe arbitral tribunal made clear in its award (Keegan v. Newcastle United FC Ltd23) that the liquidated damages clause was not punitive in nature \u2013 given \u201cthe near impossibility of estimating precisely what his loss would be, we consider [the clause] to be reasonable and to represent a genuine pre-estimate of his loss\u201d24.\nWhilst this decision was arrived at applying the old test for penalty clauses, it serves to illustrate that where it is impossible to precisely estimate loss flowing from a breach of contract (as will often be the case in sports contracts) it will be very difficult indeed to argue that a clause is penalty clause. The new test, requiring the clause to be exorbitant or unconscionable, will be even harder to satisfy in these circumstances.\n5. Illegality\nIn Patel v. Mirza the Supreme Court grappled with the \u201cnotoriously knotty\u201d problem (as Sir Robin Jacob called it25) of the effect of the illegality doctrine on the law of contract, and embarked on a root and branch review and restatement of the law in this area. The judgment is compulsory reading for any sports law practitioner involved in commercial litigation.\nPatel v. Mirza concerned a claim in restitution; it was defended on the ground of illegality. Given the facts of the claim, the strict ratio of the case is confined to rescission: money transferred pursuant to an illegal transaction is recoverable via rescission, and such a claim will not generally be defeated by a defence of illegality.\nWhat is of more relevance to sports lawyers, however, is the broader restatement of illegality doctrine and its effect on the law of contract given by the Supreme Court, and in particular in the lead judgment of Lord Toulson.\nPrior to Patel v. Mirza, the illegality defence had been viewed through the prism of the lead House of Lords case Tinsley v. Milligan26 from which the traditional \u201creliance\u201d test was drawn: a claim would be barred from succeeding if it needed to rely on the claimant\u2019s illegal acts to succeed. This reliance test, though deceptively easy to enunciate, was notoriously difficult to apply in practice. In Patel v. Mirza the majority of the Supreme Court held that the reliance test from Tinsley is no longer good law. Instead, a new test focused on public policy was put forward by Lord Toulson (with whom four other members agreed) at para 120:\n\u201cThe essential rationale of the illegality doctrine is that it would be contrary to the public interest to enforce a claim if to do so would be harmful to the integrity of the legal system\u2026in assessing whether the public interest would be harmed\u2026it is necessary (a) to consider the underlying purpose of the prohibition\u2026(b) to consider any other relevant public policy on which the denial of the claim would have an impact and (c) to consider whether denial of the claim would be a proportionate response to the illegality, bearing in mind that punishment is a matter for the criminal courts.\u201d\nThis test did not receive unanimous approval by the Supreme Court in Patel v. Mirza. Lord Sumption described the move away from the reliance test towards a public policy test as a substitution of \u201ca new mess for the old one\u201d (at para 265). Furthermore, at least one first instance court has held that the ratio of the case is confined to rescission, and that courts are not bound to apply Lord Toulson\u2019s new policy based test to cases outside this narrow category where there is previous binding higher authority.27 Therefore, it remains to be seen whether (outside the context of rescission) and how the courts will apply the new test.\nNevertheless, it is clear that the scope of illegality defences has been reduced by Patel v. Mirza. It is worth remembering that illegality defences are not confined to extreme cases:\nIllegality defences are not in-frequently raised in commercial disputes (although they are seldom pursued to trial). For example, in a claim brought by an individual concerning sums due under an agency agreement where invoices were raised by the agent\u2019s limited company and not by the agent as an individual, the (potentially) illegal treatment of income derived from the commercial agency agreement (i.e. as income of the agent\u2019s limited company not as income of the individual agent) formed the basis of an illegality defence.\nIn a sports context, consider the interesting (and perhaps not wholly far-fetched) example of a contract between an athlete or a team and a doctor pursuant to which the doctor would provide performance enhancing drugs in return for payment. If the athlete or team failed to pay the doctor in breach of this contract, would the illegal purpose of the contract preclude the doctor from recovering sums due to him under the contract? Whatever the answer, this example must now be addressed by reference to Lord Toulson\u2019s policy-based test in Patel v. Mirza and not the reliance test from Tinsley.\nPractitioners should be alive to this change in the law, and astute to the new landscape: the illegality defence may no longer be as powerful as it once was when deployed in in contractual disputes.\n1\u2020 Force India Formula One Team Ltd v.

        "raw_content": "When Should I Have Prenuptial Agreement Drawn Up\nPrenuptial agreements are not for everyone, and having one is not always the best choice. There are circumstances, however, where a proper, legal prenuptial agreement should be put in place.\nWhen Should I Get One\nPrenups aren't for everyone. A prenup is probably a good idea when:\nOne partner is much wealthier than the other. We're talking serious cash here, which is the millionaire and the maid kind of situation. Among other things, this makes sure your partner is marrying you for who you are and not for your money.\nOne partner earns much more income than the other. Again, we're talking about a serious discrepancy between incomes. If one partner, for instance, earns a six-figure income each year and the other earns nothing because they are unemployed, the parties should think about signing a prenup. Among other things, this helps balance the scales of alimony should the union end in divorce.\nOne partner is less financially well-off than the other. A prenuptial agreement provides equal protection for both parties; for instance, it would protect the less financially well-off of the couple in a lawsuit against their wealthier partner.\nThis isn't your first rodeo. Individuals who are remarrying should consider a prenup to make sure their assets are distributed the way they wish should they pass away and one family doesn't get left out in the cold unintentionally.\nOne partner has significant debt. In this situation a prenup can help protect debtors from coming after the solvent partner should a divorce or bankruptcy occur.\nOne partner owns a business. In a situation where one spouse owns a business or is a partner in a business a prenup should be put in place; if not, if the owning spouse passes away, the other can take their place in the business, something that business partners might not have signed up for.\nOne partner has an estate. Having a prenup can make sure that your assets and your estate are distributed according to your wishes, instead of whatever your spouse decides.\nYou plan on children. If one of the couple stays home to raise children, a prenuptial agreement can help make sure the financial responsibilities of their upbringing are fairly shared between both parties.",

        "raw_content": "Mediterranean Diet Foods -\nMediterranean diet foods are so delicious!\nOne of the most common issues faced (and feared) by many of us who want to lose weight is: should I count my calorie intake to lose weight?\nThe answer is - no (and I thank God for that, because that is something I really hate - counting calories!)\nSo, what is the Mediterranean diet?\nThere is no single \"Mediterranean diet\". At least 16 countries border the Mediterranean Sea.\nTherefore, the overall diet is the result of long-term mixing and development of various influences (climate, culture, religion).\nDiets vary between these countries and also between regions within each country.\nHere you will find information (including tasty recipes) mainly relating to Croatian cuisine, since Croatia is my homeland and has the type of Mediterranean diet I know best.\nTown of Split, Croatia\nTo find a great Chicken recipe combining all the different flavors of the Mediterranean, why not visit my friend David's Mediterranean Chicken Recipe Page, at his great cutting edge Mediterranean recipe site.\nMediterranean diet foods include lots of fish, fruit and vegetables, especially onion, garlic, tomatoes, peppers, olive oil, whole grains and fresh herbs, which are both delicious and healthy.\nSince food is first and foremost a pleasure for most people, it is not only health that makes this diet popular, but the fact that healthy foods can also be very tasty and the food easy and quick to prepare.\nMediterranean diet foods are almost always supplemented with olive oil. It is used very much in Mediterranean cuisine.\nIt has been proved to lower total cholesterol and LDL (bad cholesterol) and to raise good cholesterol levels. Similarly, it has a beneficial effect on inflammation of the blood vessel walls and on blood clotting factors.\nIt is perhaps the most important ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine so it may seem that this diet contains a lot of fat.\nThe truth is that up to 30% of the calorie intake comes from fat. Therefore, it is definitely not a low-fat diet.\nBut almost 100% of the fat is unsaturated and is gained directly from olive oil. In other words, the fats in the Mediterranean diet are basically healthy.\nOlive oil does not cause the negative effects of saturated fat of animal origin.\nHowever, the secret isn't only in olive oil. Various meals are eaten regularly.\nMore on Mediterranean diet foods\nThe food is divided into three main meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and two snacks (yogurt, fruits).\nBreakfast, which mainly consists of whole grains, dairy products, lean ham, cheese or fruits should never be skipped.\nFor drinking there is water or sometimes freshly squeezed fruit juice.\nBoiled food is almost always preferred to baked food.\nA glass of wine is often drunk after lunch (thank God for that too!) - usually red wine.\nIn the Mediterranean, food is traditionally eaten slowly with all family members together at the table.\nPeople in the Mediterranean - and here I mean Croatia where I live especially in Dalmatia (Dalmatia is a region in Croatia on the coast of the Adriatic sea) live a life that is much slower and simpler and so is the food preparation. Easy going - is definitely the best way to describe life in Dalmatia and on the Croatian islands.\nHowever, if you want to learn more about the Mediterranean diet together with some tasty recipes from Spain, click here.\nMediterranean diet foods are freshly cooked daily, sometimes several times a day. Therefore, ready-made processed foods are very rare, even in families where all members go to work every day. This is a very good habit because processed foods are rich in preservatives, additives and unsaturated fats, which are bad for the heart and vascular system. They also increase the risk of malignant diseases.\nFresh fruits and vegetables are the best source of vitamins and minerals.\nThe Mediterranean diet is also rich in foods that lower blood pressure.\nPolyunsaturated fatty acids from fish help to lower cholesterol, reduce free radicals that adversely affect blood vessels, reduce blood pressure and positively affect the heart rhythm. They also help in lowering triglycerides.\nIf you want to know more about how to lower cholesterol naturally click here.\nMeat is eaten in moderation because it is rich in saturated fat. Fish and seafood can be quite similar to meat. If you can't live without meat, let white meat (turkey, chicken, rabbit meat) be your first choice.\nIt is an anti inflammatory diet, a high fiber diet and an anti-aging diet.\nThe Mediterranean diet should be supplemented by regular physical activity (quick walking is the best!)\nAs has been scientifically proven, the Mediterranean diet foods are definitely healthy foods to eat.\nThey have high nutritional values and their positive and beneficial effects on health make the Mediterranean diet (which is not only intended for weight loss) the best \"food philosophy\" for life.\nhttp://www.diethealthclub.com/blog/common-illnesses/causes-of-high-protein-in-blood.html - Symptoms, causes and treatment for abnormally high protein level.\nOut of all Mediterranean diet foods, have you ever tried Croatian cuisine?\nWhat did you like the best?

        "raw_content": "Date: 15 February 2018 Read: 15778\nMr Johan Fourie wrote the following in response to an article that appeared in last week\u2019s edition of the Zoutpansberger about the mining company Smarty (South Africa) Mineral Investment (Pty) Ltd\u2019s interest to mine copper near Musina:\nAnother mining company seeing only dollar signs, and when confronted with the real questions that matter, they have no answers! Not any one of the mining companies that have mining plans in the Limpopo Valley has been able to answer one crucial question: Where is the water going to come from?\nFarmers are battling to survive due to a lack of water and rain in the area. Now mining companies want to take the little we have for their short-term and unsustainable mining ventures!\nFurthermore, mining licences, water licences and environmental authorization are handed out left, right and centre without anyone considering the cumulative impact of all of these developments on the resources, people, food production and other economic activities in the area. Each application is evaluated in isolation without any consideration for other economic activities or developments in the area.\nWhere are the resource audit and resource-use plan for the region? Where is an integrated development plan for the total development of the region (not IDPs for individual municipal areas, since they look at the development of a town in isolation)?\nHave we got any idea how much water is available, how many existing economic activities rely on the limited water resources, and how many communities and people must survive on the little water there is? Is the infrastructure available to service all these developments?\nThe Department of Trade and Industry talks about large-scale industrial development and even a coal-fired power plant for the area. Where are the EIAs? What impact will it have on existing economic activities (tourism and agriculture, food production) and the water resources of the area, not to even talk about the pollution that will result from this?!\nIt is high time that the right questions are being asked and satisfactory answers provided to all these questions and to the future development of the region!\nThe water scarcity in Cape Town will look like a \"baby\" in comparison to what will happen if the Limpopo Valley runs out of water! With four consecutive years of drought and predictions that matters will get worse in the future, we are a lot closer to a water disaster than what we think!\nIt is time this is taken into consideration by the government and mining companies when they sit in their air-conditioned, luxury offices and work on plans for the development of the region! You cannot plan from your office desk, you do it at ground level, with the people and with up-to-date and adequate information at your disposal!",

        "raw_content": "\"Tonight, I want us to be remembered by all the French people who are watching,\" France's Paul Pogba urged his teammates, \"by their children, their grandchildren and their great grandchildren, too.\"\nThe stirring locker room pep talk before the recent World Cup final served as a rallying cry for Les Bleus'4-2 win over Croatia, a victory that won more than just a second star for their collection.\nThe nationwide celebration unleashed that night capped more than two months of speculation over France's fate in Russia and the inevitable comparisons to the nation's 1998 World Cup-winning team. But following the July 16 victory parade and ceremonies, the French Football Federation (FFF) reminded people that, \"after Russia, the next one is at our [house].\"\nAfter\u200b France\u200b won\u200b the World\u200b Cup,\u200b Les\u200b Bleus fans, including some\u200b of\u200b the\u200b country\u2019s\u200b NBA players congratulated\u200b the\u200b\u200b new champions on social media. The Charlotte Hornets\u2019 Nicolas Batum, whose Twitter match commentary tracked the final\u2019s ups and downs, chirped his solidarity and shared images of celebrations in Paris, from the Champs \u00c9lys\u00e9es to the Tour Eiffel. Timoth\u00e9 Luwawu-Cabarrot, recently traded from Philadelphia to Oklahoma City, photographed his support and joy, while the Knicks\u2019 \u201cFrench Prince,\u201d Frank Ntilikina, starred in the team\u2019s gleeful World Cup tributes.\nFrance\u2019s \u201cChildren of 1998\u201d are united by belief (and relatively muted hair styles)\nFrance\u200b and\u200b Belgium\u200b have clashed\u200b on\u200b the\u200b field for\u200b more\u200b than\u200b 120\u200b years,\u200b\u200b but on Tuesday, in the World Cup semifinal in Saint Petersburg, the stakes will be higher than ever before. Men who usually play side-by-side as professional teammates will instead be pitted against each other as internationals for one night. Then there\u2019s the fact that Les Diables Rouges\u2019 assistant coach Thierry Henry is one of France\u2019s heroes of 1998 (alongside French head coach Didier Deschamps), infusing the match with additional tension as two veterans of the famous black-blanc-beur team square off on the touchline. Yet, for all that Titi has given Belgium\u2014including a \u201ctaste for the attack,\u201d in the words of French Football Federation president No\u00ebl Le Gra\u00ebt\u2014France and Deschamps retain an advantage: the children of 1998.\nSource: https://theathletic.com/425758/2018/07/09/frances-children-of-1998-are-united-by-belief-and-relatively-muted-hair-styles/?redirected=1\n\u201cToday, life in France stopped\u201d as brilliant Mbapp\u00e9 leads Les Bleus over Argentina\nFrance\u200b slayed\u200b the\u200b naysayers Saturday\u200b afternoon\u200b in\u200b Kazan with a 4-3 triumph\u200b over\u200b Argentina, and it\u2019s clear we\u2019re living in a Mbapp\u00e9 world.\nMade in France: How 52 players born in a single country made it to the World Cup\nFrance\u200b nearly\u200b stumbled\u200b against Australia,\u200b leading\u200b some\u200b people to worry that\u200b a terrifically\u200b gifted\u200b team\u200b might not\u200b fulfill\u200b\u200b its potential at In Russia. But in another regard, France is clearly dominating this World Cup regardless of on-pitch results. Some 52 players across five teams at the tournament in Russia are French-born, and nearly a third of them come from Paris and its surrounding suburbs. What some call the greatest concentration of soccer talent in Europehas become a strong quadrennial presence. Since 2002, France has supplied more players and coaches for World Cup rosters\u2014218 in total\u2014than any other country, according to RunRepeat. As a result, the country\u2019s soccer influence extends well beyond its own 23-man squad.\n1968 was a year that shook the world as protests rocked the United States, Mexico, Brazil, France, Italy, Germany, Czechoslovakia, Tokyo, and points in between. By mid-May in France, workers joined student protesters in a nation-wide strike that shut down much of daily life. Often overlooked was the role of the sports world during the \u201cEvents of May,\u201d as the movement is still referred to.\nUnofficial people-to-people diplomacy occurs daily in places where you least expect it, including on the basketball court and in cyberspace. Take the French NBA players or Boston Celtics Bill Russell for example.\nWhere does sport fit into diplomacy and governance? This terrific question brought me to London for four days of meetings, presentations, roundtables, and informal discussions at the Centre for International Studies and Diplomacy, SOAS. And resulted in fantastic onwards questions and ideas.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb From the Live Happy Team \u00bb Follow a Dane\u2019s Path to Happiness\nBonnie Olesen\nTraveling around the world can bring a host of positive benefits to your well-being. Experiencing different cultures and seeing how other people live offers a better understanding of this vast world we live in. This stokes our curiosity and allows us to be more empathetic to others. I just returned from a trip Denmark, my homeland and one of the happiest countries in the world. As Live Happy\u2019s senior manager of digital marketing, I wanted to share with you the best things to do and see in Copenhagen.\nCopenhagen offers an abundance of wonderful restaurants, and it is almost impossible to not overindulge. My favorite local area is Frederiksberg. Start off on Vaernedamsvej, a small street where you can\u2019t really go wrong in any of many stores and restaurants. You can grab an amazing French sandwich and a glass of wine at Le Gourmand or a glass of wine and a charcuterie board from neighborhood hop spot Falernum. If you are looking to splurge, Restaurant Geist with celebrity chef Bo Beck is the place to be. Don\u2019t cheat yourself out of a glass of the house champagne, Billecart-Salmon, my absolute favorite. If you want something more traditional, you can go local with open-face sandwiches at one of Copenhagen\u2019s oldest \u201csmorrebrod\u201d restaurants, Schonnemann.\nWhen I\u2019m back home, I never miss a trip to my favorite shopping street Gammel Kongevej. This is a street where the locals shop and has an abundance of wonderful Danish brands as well as more upscale store emporiums. Zornig offers everything your heart desires from all over the world. If you are looking for Danish designs to fill your home, you can never go wrong at Illums Bolighus.\nWhen in Denmark, walking is the best way to get around. The Metro and bus systems are easy to use, but we Danes like to walk or bike everywhere. You will get tired, so what better way to relax than to get a massage or even squeeze in a morning yoga class at my favorite spa, Hotspot Copenhagen. This newly opened spa has already been nominated for spa of the year in 2018.\nCopenhagen is filled with little gems, parks and architectural wonders, so walking is the best way to take them all in. The little mermaid statue is a given, however, make sure to walk through Kastellet to see the Gefion Fountain. Enjoy the beautiful St. Alban\u2019s Church and continue down the harbor front where you can see the queen\u2019s residence, Amalienborg Palace. You may even catch a glimpse of Her Royal Highness or the Crown Prince. Local tip: Don\u2019t miss the changing of the guard daily at noon. If the weather is decent, you will find all the locals enjoying the sunshine along the harbor in front of The Royal Danish Playhouse. Just over the bridge to Christianshavn is one of the most treasured areas of Copenhagen that also houses The Royal Danish Opera.\nA must see for sure is the Tivoli Gardens; it\u2019s truly a special treat depending on the time of year. If you are visiting around Christmas, there\u2019s an amazing Christmas market, and if you are visiting in the spring, aim for Friday nights when the garden has concerts with a lot of Danish bands. Summer is also a special time to take part in a longstanding tradition of enjoying lunch or dinner inside the park. A few restaurants will grant free access to the park if you join them for a meal.\nHere at Live Happy, we have a team tradition of bringing back a gift whenever you are abroad. What better gift than the Hoptimist!",

        "raw_content": "Woman sitting on a bench holding her chest (Image: champja/iStock/Getty Images)\nProgesterone is an important hormone in the female body, produced by the ovaries and the adrenal glands -- and in pregnant women, by the placenta. This hormone plays several significant roles, including preparing the body for and maintaining a pregnancy. In addition, together with other hormones, it helps regulate the monthly menstrual cycle and can influence mood and sexual desire. Progesterone is frequently used in hormone replacement therapy and in treating infertility. Unfortunately, progesterone can also bring on or worsen acid reflux.\nAcid reflux, or heartburn, occurs when the stomach contents are regurgitated back up the esophagus. This can lead to burning and discomfort in the chest or throat area. It can also cause difficulty swallowing, coughing or nausea. Progesterone is one of many things that can cause or aggravate acid reflux. The hormone causes relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), a ring of muscle in the esophagus that contracts to keep stomach contents from flowing in the wrong direction. If this muscle ring relaxes too much, the contents of the stomach can rise back up the esophagus and cause acid reflux. This is one reason pregnant women get heartburn -- their progesterone levels are elevated.\nSeveral lifestyle modifications may help decrease acid reflux symptoms, even when progesterone is present or elevated. Overweight individuals -- with a BMI of 25 or greater -- are at increased risk for developing acid reflux. Weight loss can help decrease the frequency of symptoms or even resolve them in some cases. Smoking cessation and sleeping with the upper body slightly elevated also help decrease the likelihood of acid reflux.\nModifying the diet can also help minimize the likelihood of developing acid reflux. Individuals may have different triggers that aggravate heartburn symptoms, but some of the common culprits include caffeine, chocolate, alcohol, mint, raw onion and garlic. These foods may, like progesterone, contribute to reflux by relaxing the lower esophageal sphincter, or they may aggravate reflux through different mechanisms. The American College of Gastroenterology also recommends limiting intake of fatty foods, as these also seem to trigger symptoms.\nThose experiencing new or worsening acid reflux should contact their medical providers. Chronic acid reflux can lead to long-term damage, including erosion of the lining of the esophagus and esophageal ulcers, but treatment can mitigate some of these risks. Progesterone therapy, in addition to any influence it may have on acid reflux, can have side other side effects, including effects on mood. Finally, whether or not you are on hormone replacement therapy, chest pain should be taken seriously. It should not automatically be attributed to heartburn, because cardiac chest pain and heartburn are often confused for one another.\nAlimentry Pharmacology &amp; Therapeutics: The Management of Heartburn in Pregnancy\nObesity: Weight Loss Can Lead to Resolution of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Symptoms: A Prospective Intervention Trial\nAmerican Journal of Gastroenterology: Updated Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease\n5 Things You Need to Know About Estrogen and Acid Reflux\nHCG & High Blood Pressure\nChest Pressure During Pregnancy\nBile Acid in the Stomach",

        "raw_content": "Tension and Pacing Through Conflict and Emotional Narrative\nJuly 15, 2015\tin The Fatal Flaws of Fiction Writing\twith 4 Comments\nThis month we\u2019ve been attacking Fatal Flaw #7\u2014Lack of Pacing and Tension. Tension is crucial in a story. Without it, readers will stop reading. Pacing is linked to tension, and there are many ways to ensure strong pacing in a novel. Take a look at what editor Christy Distler suggests to create strong pacing and tension through conflict and emotional narrative.\nThis month we\u2019ve been talking about tension and pacing in fiction. As a quick review, tension is what motivates your reader to keep turning the pages of the story. It grabs their attention and makes them want (or, even better, need) to know what\u2019s going to happen next.\nPacing is the rate at which a story is told, and it can vary from slow to fast depending on several factors\u2014for example: the characters, the setting, or the scene\u2019s action (or lack of it). While pacing is always present and tension isn\u2019t, both require good storytelling if they\u2019re to work in a writer\u2019s favor.\nTwo great ways of keeping up the tension and pacing are through the use of conflict and emotional narrative. Conflict, or a character\u2019s opposition with other characters or circumstances (or both), keeps a story interesting. Emotional narrative invokes readers\u2019 interest by allowing them to get to know a character and care about what happens to him or her. If a character\u2019s inner thoughts and motivations aren\u2019t shown, he or she seems more like a puppet just going through the motions.\nLet\u2019s take a look at Before and After examples to see how conflict and emotional narrative affect tension and pacing.\nMrs. Gray glanced back at Daddy and me as she led us across the narrow paved road toward another more modern one-story building. Like the gymnasium, this one also had plenty of large windows, and I could see students moving around inside.\n\u201cThis is the cafeteria. Students are free to eat their meals here, which is more common on bad-weather days and school days, or in other areas on campus, such as outside or in the residence halls.\u201d She stopped at the glass double doors and opened one, then followed us inside.\nThe smell of food permeated the air, and I wrinkled my nose.\nMrs. Gray looked at me. \u201cIs something wrong, Cassie?\u201d\n\u201cFood smells and I just don\u2019t get along, especially if the food is cooked.\u201d\nShe cocked an eyebrow. \u201cSo you don\u2019t eat cooked food then?\u201d\n\u201cWell\u2026I prefer raw foods\u2014fruit, vegetables, nuts.\u201d\nMother crossed her arms and sighed. \u201cPerhaps there\u2019s no better time than now for you to resolve your food aversions, Cassandra.\u201d\nDaddy placed his hand on my arm. \u201cThat would really work in your favor, honey.\u201d\n\u201cIf you\u2019d prefer to supply Cassie with much of her food, that\u2019s fine, and we have a good variety of fruits and vegetables available as well as yogurt and other uncooked foods.\u201d Mrs. Gray smiled at me. \u201cPerhaps we can sit down and come up with a plan that will help you be more comfortable with that aspect.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019d appreciate that\u2014to start anyway.\u201d Mother shifted her gaze to me. \u201cBut sooner or later, you\u2019re going to have to get over your food issues. Why not start now?\u201d\nYeah. I could at least try.\nThe overbearing smell of food\u2014ham and green beans among others\u2014permeated the air. I raised my hand to my nose and held my breath.\nMrs. Gray cocked her head, her eyes widening. \u201cIs something wrong, Cassie?\u201d\nSeveral students were seated at round tables throughout the large room while others stood in line getting their meals. I\u2019d never understand how so many people could eat things without a second thought. \u201cFood smells and I just don\u2019t get along, especially if the food is cooked.\u201d\n\u201cI eat raw foods\u2014fruit, vegetables, nuts.\u201d\nSeriously? Food odors killed my appetite, and I couldn\u2019t remember the last time I\u2019d eaten something green. She expected me to not only get used to new surroundings, but also be around and ingest foods that almost made me gag? Not likely.\nDaddy placed his hand on my arm. \u201cI\u2019m sure we can work out your meals with the administration, just like we did at your old school.\u201d He looked to Mrs. Gray. \u201cCertainly you have other students with alternative eating habits?\u201d\n\u201cIndeed we do,\u201d she said. \u201cMost have allergies, but we\u2019re willing to work with families to ensure that students receive the nutrition they need. If you\u2019d prefer to supply Cassie with much of her food, that\u2019s fine, and we have a good variety of fruits and vegetables available as well as yogurt and other uncooked foods.\u201d She smiled at me. \u201cPerhaps we can sit down and come up with a plan that will help you be more comfortable with that aspect.\u201d\nOh, I loved this woman.\n\u201cWe\u2019d appreciate that\u2014to start anyway.\u201d Mother shifted her gaze to me and lifted her chin. \u201cBut sooner or later, you\u2019re going to have to get over your food issues. Why not start now?\u201d\nWhy not start now? Maybe because food odors were gross and, moreover, that anything the color of tomato hornworms and stink bugs shouldn\u2019t be anywhere near my mouth.\nSo what differences did you see in the two examples?\nWhile there\u2019s some conflict in the Before passage, it\u2019s not enough to keep the scene interesting. Sure, Cassie reveals that she doesn\u2019t like certain types of foods, but when she\u2019s questioned about that, she gives a rather neutral answer: she prefers certain foods. In the After, she tells it like it is: she flat-out doesn\u2019t eat certain foods. Her mother then states that she should work on resolving her food aversions. In the Before passage, Cassie simply agrees, while in the After, she gives the reader an explanation of why she can\u2019t. Her acquiescence continues at the end of the scene, when she again consents to her mother\u2019s suggestion. The lack of conflict in the Before passage significantly weakens the scene, making it boring and even questionably necessary to the story\u2014hardly a page-turner and kind of blah-blah with pacing. The After passage, on the other hand, has plenty of tension, which increases the pacing.\nEmotional narrative. In the Before example, Cassie describes very little of what\u2019s going on in her mind during the scene. She listens and answers, but we don\u2019t know the depths of what she\u2019s truly feeling. One of the things that greatly influences whether readers bond with a character is their ability to identify with what the character is experiencing. The emotional aspect of Cassie\u2019s struggle with certain foods is something most people can relate to, at least to some extent (who doesn\u2019t have certain foods they don\u2019t like or can\u2019t stand?), and it also increases the tension and speeds up the pacing.\nHave you ever struggled with including conflict and emotional narrative in your writing? If you\u2019ve overcome such issues, how did you do it?\n4 Responses to \u201cTension and Pacing Through Conflict and Emotional Narrative\u201d\nSara Butler\tJuly 15, 2015 at 1:37 pm\t#\nCreating an emotional narrative is my biggest struggle. On a first draft my focus is on getting the external details right. Now, before I write a second draft, I create a list of emotions for my POV character tied to each beat of the scene, then use the Emotion Thesaurus to find actions that relate the emotion and create an internal narrative that shows what the character is thinking/feeling at each point. I\u2019m still much too heavy on the thinking, and too light on the feeling, but I\u2019m working on it.\nYour before and after examples always give me some tidbit to add to my arsenal to battle against my main weakness: flat, emotionally shallow writing. Thanks.\nChristy Distler\tJuly 16, 2015 at 4:05 pm\t#\nI write similarly, adding the bulk of the emotion after the action is already written. I love the Emotion Thesaurus!\nI\u2019m glad this post was helpful for you!\nJim Steinberg\tJuly 16, 2015 at 8:20 am\t#\nI loved this post. Your comment about emotional narrative really hit the spot for me. In what I read and write, I need to know how a character feels about the conflicts going on with others and the situation in his life generally. It can be done efficiently and without reliance upon \u201ctelling.\u201d Thank you for this important reminder.\nIn my second novel project, I am having more of a struggle with pacing, but it\u2019s only a rough draft, so I\u2019m \u201cletting it all hang out.\u201d It feels like a risk, but it\u2019s how I find the story. I\u2019ll put it on Weight Watchers later.\nWhat do you think? (If you have the time.)\nI agree. Let it all hang out if that\u2019s what you need to do to get it down on paper. You can always add the needed emotion afterward. Every writer has a different formula that works for him or her, so I say go for it!",

        "raw_content": "Home Opinions Artificial Intelligence aids human creativity\nArtificial Intelligence aids human creativity\nA few months ago we saw the release of \u201cSunspring,\u201d a short science fiction movie written entirely by Artificial Intelligence (A.I.). This month researchers at Sony released a couple of pop songs composed by their A.I. This is scary news for a lot of artists who feel that it\u2019s already hard enough to get noticed without having to compete against both man and machine. Computers have been getting smarter since their invention, and that\u2019s usually a good thing when they take on the laborious work that humans do only begrudgingly. In most cases it leads to society producing more with less effort, and more people being able to dedicate their time to creative and fulfilling work. But what happens when computers start encroaching on these creative careers?\nIt\u2019s easy to be afraid of things we don\u2019t understand. Sony\u2019s technical accomplishment does not mean machines are replacing or even coming close to competing with humans creatively. It\u2019s not even a step in that direction. To understand why, let\u2019s consider a famous thought experiment known as \u201cThe Chinese Room.\u201d A person sits down at a desk in a room. They are given pieces of paper with Chinese text written on them through a slot in the door. This person then consults a giant list of instructions on how to respond to any given set of characters. They staple together the characters to form a response and slip it back out through the door. Given clever enough instructions, this person can carry on an intelligent conversation in Chinese, despite the fact that they have no idea what the characters mean.\nThis is largely all a machine can do \u2013 follow simple instructions. When software engineers talk about terms like \u201cmachine learning,\u201d it\u2019s just referring to the software collecting more and more data from which to draw conclusions. This process is exactly how the researchers at Sony designed their program to compose music. It pulls from a huge song database of various artists and styles. This database could be annotated with information like the popularity or genre of songs. The software then simply tries to put together melodies that are similar enough to what it knows and combine them in new ways.\nSome would argue that this isn\u2019t any different from how humans learn and produce creative work. After all, most of our work is inspired by other people\u2019s work mixed together with our own personal experiences. But the point is that we really don\u2019t know how humans produce original, innovative ideas. The golden rule in computer science is that you cannot get a machine to do anything that you cannot explain and articulate as a simple set of instructions. If we don\u2019t have the faintest idea of how the creative process works, then there\u2019s no way we can get a computer to do it.\nSo if computers are so dumb, and they\u2019re bad at doing creative things, how come we\u2019ve seen such great feats in the past few years? These achievements can only be accomplished when humans collaborate with machines. The real world is a tangled mess of data. Computers help us sift through that and make meaningful connections. Computers are great at the former, we\u2019re great at the latter. This is known as augmented intelligence. In fact, this is how the Sony research team intends for this software to be used \u2013 to enhance rather than to replace our skills. The songs that were released weren\u2019t created completely by the A.I. The lyrics were written by an artist, who also tweaked and polished the A.I. produced songs.\nThe research team is trying to create a music authoring tool for humans to use as an aid in creativity \u2013 not to replace us. Machine intelligence will never beat human ingenuity.\nA great example of this is Spotify\u2019s music recommendation system. Engineers in the music industry struggled for decades to create an algorithm that understands music tastes. In the end, engineers at Spotify realized they could get much better results by using the playlists that its users made. If you make a playlist that has a couple of songs that I really like, I\u2019d probably like to hear more like it. So the process was a joint effort of humans making meaningful connections and computers sifting through the tangles of data. There\u2019s no need for humans to compete with machines. The future is in the hands of those who can work together to produce things that neither human nor machine can do on their own.\nOmar Shehata \u201918 (shehat1@stolaf.edu) is from Alexandria, Egypt.

The former Mills estate was bordered by what is now Skyline Boulevard, Bayshore Highway U.S. Route 101, Millbrae Avenue and Trousdale Drive. The estate became known as \"Millbrae\" from \"Mills\" and the Scottish word \"brae,\" which means \"rolling hills.\" Children swam in three lakes situated on the estate and sold acacias to tourists before the Mills family began to sell the land for development. The estate's spectacular mansion burned down during a realistic \"fire drill\" in 1954.\nMillbrae used a private patrol financed by fees from merchants and residents until 1941, when the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors created the Millbrae Police District. Records of the Internal Revenue Service document the licensing of several Millbrae bars for gambling; only after incorporation were gambling laws enforced in Millbrae and not until the 1950s was gambling defeated. In 1931, citizens organized a volunteer fire department, which remained entirely volunteer until 1938. The police and fire departments were housed together for several years at Hillcrest Boulevard and El Camino Real before the vital services moved to their permanent location in Millbrae's civic center, a few blocks west of El Camino.",

It is full of complex emotions of joy, exhaustion, love, and worry, all mixed together. Your fundamental identity changes overnight. You go from thinking of yourself as primarily an individual, to suddenly being a mother, first and foremost.\"\n\"And yet there is no rule book, no right or wrong\u2014you just have to make it up and do the very best you can to care for your family. For many mothers, myself included, this can, at times lead to lack of confidence and feelings of ignorance.\"\nAlongside Prince Harry and Prince William this morning.\nAt the event today, Middleton also praised Prince Harry for being open about his struggles coping with his mother Princess Diana's death. (The prince said in an interview earlier this week that he had been close to a breakdown multiple times and sought professional help in his late 20s.)\n\"We all felt there was very much a campaign to get everyone talking and have these conversations, [so] we've got to do the same...he's been brilliant,\" she said.\nPeople Are Obsessing Over Kate Middleton's Fingers\nKate Middleton's Grandma Was a WWII Codebreaker\nJames Middleton on Dealing With Depression",

Over the past year, the value of Woolworths\u2019 and Myer\u2019s brands increased, while Harvey Norman\u2019s and David Jones\u2019 decreased.\nColes, which is a consolidated entity, was not included in the study because it doesn\u2019t release enough financial information to qualify for Interbrand\u2019s criteria.\nCEO of Interbrand Australia and New Zealand, Damian Borchok, says, Australian brands performed well on the study in relation to Asian brands which are only just beginning to use brand as a strategy in their respective retail markets.\n\u201cThe general value of Asia\u2019s brands are lower because it\u2019s such a fragmented market and building retail brands in Asia is a relatively new thing,\u201d Borchok says.\n\u201cFor Australian retailers facing the toughest marketplace in decades, the study provides some clear signposts towards what will drive success in the future.\n\u201cThe fusion of physical environments and technology will be key and winning retailers will place greater emphasis on customer insight and customer service. The role of the store will go beyond being a receptacle for merchandise and carrying out transactions; smart retailers are already working out that their stores can deliver memorable and engaging experiences that result in substantial commercial success.\u201d\nThe top retail brand in Asia Pacific for 2012 are:\nIn overseas lists, department store Walmart maintained its number one position in the US, with a brand value just over US$139 billion (down 2% from last year), supermarket Tesco took top honours in the UK, valued at US$11 billion (up 9% on last year), hypermarket Carrefour topped the list in France, grocery giant Aldi in Germany and fast-fashion retailer Zara in Spain. All number-one ranked brands held onto their top spots from 2011\u2019s \u2018Best Retail Brand Report\u2019.\nAmazon maintained its position at number nine in the US, and was the largest riser on any of the lists, with a 32% increase to bring its brand value up to US$12.8 billion.\neBay moved into the top 10 for the first time in the US, while other big movers included hardware chain Leroy Merlin (France; up 22%), supermarkets Mercadona (Spain; up 22%) and Lidl (Germany; up 20%), machinery manufacturer Tractor Supply (U.S.; up 18%), and cosmetics retailer Sephora (France; up 18%).\nIn Asia Pacific, there were three new entrants in 2012\u2019s list \u2013 Japanese department store Muji, valued at US$355 million, Chinese women\u2019s footwear retailer Belle, valued at US$310 million, and Japanese home furnishings supplier Nitori, valued at US$275 million.\nThe report was launched with a word of advice for retailers \u2013 every channel matters in the new landscape.

GrabCAD Print\u2019s Advanced FDM feature is aimed at ensuring design intent via intuitive model interaction to rapidly deliver strong, light, and purpose-built parts.\nBy avoiding laborious CAD-to-STL conversion, users are able to work in high fidelity and rapidly advance the design-to-3D print process\u2013 which can lead to boosting both time-to-market and time-to-revenue. Advanced FDM is designed to speed part production, while maintaining creation of purpose-built parts that minimize weight without compromising strength.\n\u201cFor design and manufacturing engineers, one of the most frustrating processes is \u2018dumbing down\u2019 a CAD file to STL format - only to require subsequent re-injection of design intent into the STL printing process,\u201d said Mark Walker, Lead Software Product Manager at Stratasys. \u201cThis software is engineered to do away with this complexity, letting designers reduce iterations and design cycles \u2013 getting to a high-quality, realistic prototype and final part faster than ever before.\u201d\n\u201cAdvanced FDM has proved invaluable in improving our part processing time. When processing a very large number of tools and fixtures in a very time pressured environment, it was crucial to ensure stronger tool areas were correct first time, every time,\u201d said Dave Hewitson, Rapid Prototyping Programmer at McLaren. \u201cAdvanced FDM negates the requirement for multiple programs - creating a more streamlined process. It\u2019s also allowed us to more effectively control the structure of end-use car parts, something that was previously very difficult with the solutions we had in hand. This means we can get better parts to the track faster.\u201d\nLearn more about the power of GrabCAD and Advanced FDM and the power of Stratasys by visiting: https://grabcad.com/print/featuresorhttps://www.stratasys.com/software\nStratasys is a global leader in additive manufacturing or 3D printing technology and is the manufacturer of FDM [\u00ae] and PolyJet\u2122 3D Printers.

        "title": "The McGill Daily Whose violence is acceptable? \u2013 The McGill Daily",
        "raw_content": "Commentary Whose violence is acceptable?\nOn the biased perception of violence\nWritten by: Yasir Piracha\nLast Thursday, tens of thousands of unions and public sector workers flooded the streets of Paris. As a response to Macron\u2019s new labour reform laws and belt-tightening plans, workers in the public sector, such as train drivers, teachers, nurses, and air traffic controllers have accused him of \u201cseeking to dismantle the state sector.\u201d Similar protests took place in over 180 cities across France, with more than 400,000 people mobilizing to express their dissent. The protests were mainly peaceful and nonviolent, with only minor scuffles with police officers on the outskirts of Paris and in some small cities. In these areas, police arrived in full riot gear, firing water cannons and tear gas to disperse the protesters. The relatively nonviolent protesters are already being labelled in the media as violent and chaotic, with reports stating that the police officers\u2019 actions were necessary. Yet reports from the ground continue to refute this fact.\nIn the reporting that has been conducted over the past year, descriptions of these protests and countermovements continue to be presented as incontestable accounts of the reality of what actually happened on the scene. Reports of violence are never missing from these articles. But there are questions to be asked: Who decides what is violent and what is not? Who creates the boundaries between acceptable and unacceptable violence?\nThe dichotomy between violent versus nonviolent acts in protests is still a dangerous territory to navigate. By no means do I mean to imply that the events perpetrated by the media as \u201cviolent\u201d are actually always justifiable, but I want to point out the biased application of the word, and the ways in which these biases reproduce structural inequalities and racist assumptions.\nMissing and murdered Indigenous women are neglected by Justin Trudeau and the Canadian government in the Canadian government\u2019s reporting of these lost lives as merely policy concerns. Reports of Indigenous protests responding to gross injustices, such as these, are eager to highlight even minor events as \u201cturning violent.\u201d But what about violent protest is unjustifiable when the negligence of the government is deemed necessary and acceptable?\nAcross the border, we see more examples of the dichotomizing that occurs between violent and nonviolent forms of protest. Trump\u2019s decision to take action against the Syrian state in April was supposedly due to the release of images and videos showing Syrians being attacked by chemical weapons, allegedly deployed by the Syrian government. These attacks by the Syrian government on their citizens have since been denied and proven to lack concrete evidence. These images supposedly \u201cmoved\u201d Trump to approve missile strikes, with Justin Trudeau and Hillary Clinton both wholeheartedly backing his decision. In this situation, the violence in Syria was deemed unacceptable. Yet Black and Brown protesters across the country, both in and out of prison systems, are being pepper-sprayed, attacked, and killed by the police, but the government does nothing \u2014 simply because this violence is labelled as acceptable. This violence is necessary and justified. Of course, the violence in Syria was atrocious and abominable. Who decides if the violence within the country is not also atrocious? While reports of the Syrian missile strike are bipartisanly defended, retaliation against police officers is considered both unacceptable and an \u201cattack on democracy.\u201d\nAs writer Devyn Springer describes: \u201cthe concept of \u2018violence\u2019 is constructed at a young age to be something always done unto the US and never perpetuated by the US. The US would not paint itself as an aggressor in any instance, presenting subjects like slavery, colonialism, and foreign regime changes through a lens of benevolence rather than the actual violence they represent.\u201d The same description can be applied to many Minority World countries: violence is often described as a \u201cnecessary evil\u201d if it furthers the interests of the \u201cempire,\u201d but is wholly unacceptable when it questions the authority of the state or its processes.\nDuring Obama\u2019s presidency, drone warfare used in predominantly Black and Brown countries reached a record high. Yet we yearn for the \u201cgood old days\u201d when Obama was President. It is rare that someone points out in mainstream media that he was violent, just not in the way that\u2019s usually vilified. His use of drone strikes killed thousands of innocent people overseas, yet drone strikes are critiqued far less than, for example, a powerful and important protest, which led to minor damages, such as broken windows. Why was Obama\u2019s use of violence excusable? Why was it necessary? Why do we continue to justify and even glorify it?\nInvoking the concept of \u201cnational security\u201d is a thinly veiled cover for \u201cfurthering the empire,\u201dor rather, further advancing colonial projects through soft power in our postcolonial moment.\nObama\u2019s military action in Muslim countries was also instrumental in creating a reductive, narrow-minded definition of \u201cterrorism.\u201d The current mainstream image of terrorism is almost indistinguishable from Muslim extremism, and uses Islam as a scapegoat and catch-all for this type of violence. The incorrect designation of the term\u201cterrorism\u201d as a catch-all for a specific group\u2019s actions perpetuates these purported acts of \u201cterrorism\u201d enacted by Minority World countries. Interference, often unnecessarily, by Majority World countries often relies on this image of Islam as the one true source of terrorism. This then excuses any terrorism that the state itself might participate in: \u201cwhen nearly 90 per cent of drone strikes in places like Somalia and Yemen don\u2019t hit their target, injuring civilians, at what point do we understand it as a terrorist act?\u201d In this case, terrorism should be viewed as more than the reductionist media depiction of Muslim extremism; but rather, as any internal or external action.\nCapitalizing on the former reductionist, parochial version of terrorism allows Canadian and American governments to continue supporting and engaging in what might otherwise be considered terrorist acts without having to face criticism or questions. The state justifies its own terrorism as necessary to fight the version of terrorism they\u2019ve helped create \u2013 one rooted in reductionist bias.\nThe J20 protests at Trump\u2019s inauguration resulted in a record number of arrests and charges. Attorneys and activists both claim that no one expected a prosecutorial response so extreme, nor charges so unprecedented. Almost every arrestee was individually given their respective set of charges, to the point where 200 people were charged with the breaking of one bank window. The protesters were accused of \u201clooking to incite violent riots,\u201d among other questionable claims. Despite the hundreds of people killed overseas and locally by the state and state actors, the damaging to private property was the \u201cviolent and illegal\u201d crime. Again, \u201cviolence\u201d is applied selectively, chosen only when it threatens the regime. Many of the detainees from that day are still looking at a possible 60 years in prison.\nEven relying or calling upon liberal conceptions of human and \u201clegal\u201d rights is limiting. The defense of the discussion should not be limited to what the state deems human or civil rights, as the state itself is founded on institutions of racist subjugation. Just because breaking a bank window during a protest is deemed \u201cunjustifiable,\u201d while drone strikes on innocent civilians in Majority World countries is \u201cacceptable\u201d and \u201clegal,\u201d this does not mean we should automatically assume one has greater legitimacy than the other. Of course, we may decide that both are unacceptable, but the questions that challenge our notions of violence are still important to ask.\nThe good protester/bad protester dichotomy is similarly flawed. This binary implies that once a \u201cgood\u201d (read: lawful) protester crosses some arbitrary line into the \u201cbad\u201d category, the state can (and should) commit violence against them. The violence of the protester (no matter what motive or intentionality) is unacceptable to them; and the violence the state inflicts upon that protester is therefore justified. In an article for the Huffington Post, Indian author Arundhati Roy warns us against swapping the grand pursuit of justice for the far smaller demand of human rights. She writes: \u201cToo often, these rights become the goal itself\u2026 Human rights takes the history out of justice.\u201d\nWhen Canada and America deploy their \u201cfight for justice\u201d overseas, is it rarely completely nonviolent. Governments are often very vocal about their military action and celebrate it as necessary and \u201cacceptable\u201d violence. Yet any even mildly violent movements within the country, against the state government, are quick to be labeled as egregious and reprehensible. And while some may be so, why do we unquestioningly accept the discourse around these protest movements, and why do we not consider the violence that the state inflicts to be also egregious and reprehensible? Why do we continue to assume the government always has everyone\u2019s best interests at heart? When do we realize that their violence is often more unacceptable then anyone else\u2019s?",

        "raw_content": "May 6, 2016 / Steven Anthony / 0Comments\nWhile hospitals and large-scale healthcare facilities are responsible for the vast majority of medical waste produced in the U.S. each year, it\u2019s an issue smaller clinics and doctor\u2019s offices must deal with as well. From cosmetic surgery offices to veterinary offices, it\u2019s important for all physician\u2019s offices to be aware of state guidelines and regulations that dictate how medical waste is to be dealt with.\nOne of the biggest areas to learn first is how waste is classified since this will determine how it should be handled and disposed of. Below are some of the relevant guidelines offices of all size should know when it comes to categorizing medical waste.\nWhile a doctor\u2019s office may not produce all types of medical waste, infectious waste is commonly dealt with in clinical settings. The World Health Organization describes infectious waste as being anything that has blood or bodily fluids. This can also include cultures and stocks used during lab work, and patient waste, including bandages, swabs and medical devices that are disposable.\nUnder the Medical Waste Tracking Act of 1988, infectious waste is essentially viewed as anything that could include tissue or fluids, so the definition is broad.\nPathological waste contains things like human and animal tissues, organs and body parts. In a veterinary setting it can include entire animal carcasses.\nSharps are an incredibly common form of medical waste produced daily at the majority of medical clinics and doctor\u2019s office. Sharps can mean needles, syringes and also blades and scalpels that are disposable. Sharps have to be disposed of very carefully because they can cause cuts or injuries that could lead to infections.\nIf a doctor\u2019s office or clinic also has a pharmacy or dispenses medicine of any kind, they not only have to adhere to standards for dealing with the above forms of medical waste, but they also have to properly dispose of pharmaceuticals. According to the WHO, pharmaceutical waste includes anything that\u2019s expired, unused or contaminated. It also refers to not just drugs but also vaccines.\nGenotoxic waste\nThis classification is exclusive to the WHO\u2019s guidelines, and it relates to waste that\u2019s \u201chighly hazardous\u201d or carcinogenic. One example of this would be certain drugs used in the treatment of cancer.\nThe above represent the WHO\u2019s waste classification. These categories also include radioactive waste, as well as non-hazardous or general waste, which can include anything that doesn\u2019t pose a threat to public health.\nSome other organizations, like the CDC, also have other groupings, such as Isolation Wastes, which include biological and discarded materials that could be contaminated by fluids or secretions from humans or animals that are isolated as the result of a contagious disease.\nTraining Employees on Waste Categories\nWhether you\u2019re a small doctor\u2019s office or a large multi-doctor clinic, it\u2019s critical to train all of your employees on the above classifications, even if they aren\u2019t part of your staff that works directly with patients. By training employees in your doctor or clinic office on waste classifications, you can make sure everything goes smoothly and there no potentially hazardous situations that arise.",

Several studies have hypothesised that socioeconomic factors, including income and education, would also affect how people respond to medications and other therapies for depression, but have ultimately proved inconclusive, according to background information in the article.\nAlex Cohen, Ph.D., of Harvard Medical School, Boston, and colleagues reanalysed two previous clinical trials. The 248 participants were all 59 years or older and receiving antidepressant medications combined with psychotherapy. Low-income was defined as less than $25,000, middle-income between $25,000 and $50,000 and high-income more than $50,000. The subjects\u2019 depressive symptoms and response to treatment were measured weekly.\nWhen the authors controlled for demographic factors, such as age and gender, and baseline clinical characteristics, including recurrence of depression and age at onset, they found that people in areas defined as middle-income were significantly more likely to respond to treatment than those in the low-income group.\nIn addition, people in low-income areas were about twice as likely as those in middle-income areas and two and a half times as likely as those in high-income tracts to be suicidal, \u201csuggesting an inverse relationship between the median household income of the neighbourhoods in which subjects resided and suicidality,\u201d the authors write.",

        "raw_content": "Reducing costs for patients and their families with new drugs that shorten TB treatment regimens\nPublished\t Monday 9 June 2014\t Published\tMon 9 Jun 2014\nShorter TB treatment regimens will reduce the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by both patients and their family members, who often act as the patients' guardians. In addition, shorter TB regimens may allow an earlier return to productive activities for patients and their families.\nThese conclusions come from an international alliance of researchers, led by the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), who carried out a comparative study in Tanzania and Bangladesh looking at the out-of-pocket costs incurred by TB patients in both countries. These patients were taking the currently recommended six month TB treatment regimen. The outcomes of this study have been published in this month's International Journal of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease.\nThe main objective of the study was to quantify the potential savings of a 4 month regimen to patients. This is because a number of new drugs in the current development pipeline have the potential to shorten standard first-line TB therapy from 6 months to 4 months. When these drugs become available, national health programmes will have to make decisions about whether it is worth purchasing these drugs, so it is important to understand the potential benefits to patients.\nPrevious studies have looked at the cost of the currently available, effective treatment regimens for TB, none of which is shorter than 6 months, but have mainly focussed on the costs incurred by the health system, not the patient themselves. \"This study goes even further\", says Health Economist Elena Gospodarevskaya of LSTM and the first author. \"We have been looking at the cost for the family of the patient, taking into account loss of earnings for the family member taking the patient to appointments or staying at home to nurse them. Determining the exact magnitude of likely savings of a 4-month regimen is not straightforward, but a shorter regimen would certainly reduce the out-of-pocket travel expenses incurred by patients in the last 2 months of treatment and allow an earlier return to productive activities.\"\nResearchers from six different organisations looked at TB patients in two settings, with the final sample being 94 patients from Tanzania and 96 from Bangladesh. Most patients were interviewed during months four and six and were asked to recall their costs incurred during the initial two months of treatment, also known as the intensive phase, separately from those incurred in the two months before the interview, known as the continuation phase. Lost productivity was calculated as income lost due to TB for the patients and their guardians who would otherwise be in paid employment. All costs were considered alongside loss of earnings from travel to appointments or to collect medicines as well as the costs of hospitalisation and food supplements.\nOverall the total costs per patient in the most recent two months of the continuation phase was about half the cost per patient in the first two months, but it still constituted 77% of 2-month national income per capita in Tanzania and 89% of 2-month national income per capita in Bangladesh. \"These are significant costs for patients and their caregivers\", said William Wells, formerly of the TB Alliance.\nPrevious studies have found that the cost to patients of anti-tuberculosis treatment is high, often bench-marked as catastrophic, i.e. more than 10% of the annual household income. \"Decisions on regimen changes are often made on the basis of cost to the health system, while patient perspectives are rarely a factor in decision making. We argue that any savings to patients which have the potential to reduce the number of TB patients incurring catastrophic costs is vitally important. The new WHO TB Strategy, which was approved at the World Health Assembly last month, includes a target that by 2030 no patients or their families will incur catastrophic costs as a result of TB\", says LSTM Professor Bertie Squire, who led the study.\nAuthors of the study are based in the following institutions: Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Liverpool, UK; National Institute for Medical Research, Mwanza, Tanzania; BRAC Health Nutrition and Population Programme, BRAC Centre, Dhaka; National Tuberculosis Control Programme, Dhaka, Bangladesh; National Tuberculosis and Leprosy Programme, Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, Der es Salaam, Tanzania; TB Alliance, New York, USA.\nElena Gospodarevskaya is now Senior Research Fellow at Deakin Health Economics, Deakin Population Health Strategic Research Centre, Faculty of Health, Deakin University, Melbourne Australia\nWilliam Wells is now Senior TB Technical Advisor, Infectious Disease Division, Global Health Bureau, USAID, Washington DC, USA\nLiverpool School of Tropical Medicine. \"Reducing costs for patients and their families with new drugs that shorten TB treatment regimens.\" Medical News Today.

        "raw_content": "Low-fat diet fails to improve insulin sensitivity in metabolic syndrome\nMedWire News: Reducing dietary intake of saturated fatty acids (SFA) does not appear to influence insulin sensitivity in obese people with the metabolic syndrome, a randomized trial has shown.\nBy contrast, in the LIPGENE study, increasing intake of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFAs) in combination with a low-fat diet improved selected indices of cardiometabolic risk.\nLIPGENE was a pan-European randomized dietary intervention study designed to determine the relative efficacy of altering the quality and quantity of dietary fat on insulin sensitivity and metabolic risk factors.\nIn all, 417 people with the metabolic syndrome from eight countries were randomly assigned to one of four isoenergetic diets: high SFA - control diet; high monounsaturated fatty acids (HMUFA); low-fat, high-complex carbohydrate (LFHCC) plus long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFAs) 1.2 g/day; or LFHCC plus placebo.\nThe study lasted for 12 weeks and the primary endpoint was insulin sensitivity estimated from an intravenous glucose tolerance test.\nReporting their findings in the International Journal of Obesity, Helen Roche (University College Dublin, Ireland) and co-authors reveal that reducing SFA intake did not alter insulin sensitivity, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood pressure, or markers of systemic inflammation.\nIndeed, the only significant changes were improvements in plasma levels of triglycerides and non-esterified fatty acid levels among people assigned to the LFHCC plus n-3 PUFA diet. These changes were most pronounced in men.\nDisappointingly, insulin sensitivity did not improve with any of the four dietary interventions. However, subgroup analysis revealed a potential benefit in the subgroup of women with a habitual low intake of total fat (36% of total energy). In this subgroup, those assigned to the HMUFA diet showed a significant reduction in insulin resistance.\n\"Perhaps the impact of replacing SFA with MUFA on insulin resistance is dependent on pre-intervention fat intake,\" the authors write, although they admit this is merely a hypothesis to be tested in future studies.\nRoche and colleagues conclude: \"More extensive dietary fat modification may be required to significantly improve insulin sensitivity and other risk factors associated with the metabolic syndrome, perhaps in combination with weight loss.\n\"Although our study was designed with the weight-stable phenotype, potential interactions per synergism between dietary fat modification and weight loss need to be clarified.\"",

        "raw_content": "Prostatectomy offers best survival rates, except in elderly\nMedWire News: Radical prostatectomy offers prostate cancer patients better overall and cancer-specific survival rates than does treatment with radiotherapy or observation, study results show.\nHowever, in high-risk patients aged 70 years and older, and in all patients aged 80 years and older, radiotherapy gives equal or better survival rates than surgery, say the researchers.\nFiras Abdollah (University of Montreal Health Center, Quebec, Canada) and colleagues reviewed cancer-specific mortality (CMS) and other-cause mortality (OCM) in 404,604 patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database.\nThe team hypothesized that significant CSM and OSM differences would exist according to treatment type, and calculated these after 10 years of follow-up.\nPatients were stratified according to treatment type, age category, and prostate cancer risk category, where stage T2c and/or Gleason score 8-10 denoted high risk, and any other stage or Gleason score denoted low-intermediate risk.\nA total of 67.2% of the cohort was classed as low-intermediate risk, and the remaining 32.8% as high-risk.\nAmong the youngest age category (\u226459 years), the proportions of men treated with prostatectomy, radiotherapy, and observation were 34.9%, 12.6%, and 9.6%. These proportions were notably different among the eldest men (\u226580 years), at 0.9%, 5.7%, and 26.5%, respectively.\nThe overall 10-year CSM and OSM rates for prostatectomy, radiotherapy, and observation were 3.6%, 6.5%, and 10.8%, and 17.1%, 32.4%, and 48.9%, respectively.\nThe lowest CSM (1.3-3.7%) and OSM (6.9-31.6%) rates in the low-intermediate risk group were observed among prostatectomy patients, except octogenarians, report Abdollah and team.\nThey report respective CSM and OSM rates after prostatectomy of 8.9% and 62.8% for men aged 80 years or more, compared with 6.9% and 59.7%, respectively, for radiotherapy.\nFor high-risk patients, prostatectomy still offered the best survival outcomes among men aged under 69 years, at 5.8-7.2% for CSM, and 8.7-16.1% for OSM. However, radiotherapy offered equal rates to prostatectomy in patients aged 70-79 years, and surpassed prostatectomy success in men aged 80 years or older.\nAbdollah et al found that treatment with observation gave the least favorable outcomes among all age- and risk-groups. However, they note that high OCM among observation-treated patients may be a result of their higher rates of comorbidity compared with surgery- or radiotherapy-treated men.\n\"These findings must be interpreted within the context of the limitations of observational data,\" concludes the team.",

        "title": "Jackson Memorial Hospital expected to lose $140 million under new Medicaid law | Miami Herald",
        "raw_content": "In a twist that shows how complex the new funding formula is, hospitals in Broward County are expected to gain about $31 million.\nStill, officials at Broward\u2019s two largest public hospitals say the law should be repealed.\n\u201cEven if this could bring us more money this year, we oppose it,\u201d Memorial Healthcare System Chief Executive Officer Frank Sacco said. \u201cWe are going to lose transparency. In the future, we might not have any control over where the money goes.\u201d\nIn the past, hospitals in the counties that raised the funds got nearly all of those federal dollars back. Now they are being shared with some communities that don\u2019t raise their own funds.\nThe money will be divvied up through a complicated formula that places hospitals into three different categories, or tiers.\nThe first, which gets 35 percent of the total funds, is made up of children\u2019s hospitals, teaching hospitals and rural hospitals that serve large numbers of Medicaid patients.\nTo be in the second tier, hospitals must meet two conditions: They must be located in a county that raises healthcare funds, and more than 9 percent of their patients must be on Medicaid. Those hospitals share 35 percent of the funds.\nThe third category includes other hospitals that take Medicaid patients. They get 30 percent of the money.\nThe tiering system is not the only change driving the cuts.\nState analysts have predicted that the new funding formula will prompt local governments to cut back on their funding \u2014 impacting the federal match. They expect that to lead to an overall $565 million statewide decline in federal matching funds for hospitals.\nHospitals on the losing end are fuming.\n\u201cThe fact is, the voters have put on themselves taxes that deal with healthcare,\u201d said Migoya, whose hospital sees more Medicaid patients than any other hospital in the state, and thus stands to see the biggest drop in funding. \u201cNow, the Legislature is using some of this money to benefit other communities that chose not to tax themselves, as well as for-profit hospitals.\u201d\nEven state Rep. Matt Hudson, a Naples Republican who played a key role in the Medicaid reform law, said the Legislature should rework the formula this session. He said the Legislature did not intend to have such an impact on counties that have been raising their own healthcare funds.\n\u201cIt would really, really put a dent on some of the major treatment facilities in the state, be it trauma facilities or otherwise, and that would be a problem,\u201d he said.\nHudson is among those wondering why counties would continue taxing their residents to get a match that goes elsewhere.\n\u201cIf they don\u2019t get that guarantee, why would you do it?\u201d he said. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t make great sense.\u201d\nWhile legislators could rework the formula this session, it\u2019s unclear how high a priority it will be. After all, the plan does create winners, too.\nBroward is one of several counties that stand to gain money, according to new figures from the Safety Net Hospital Alliance of Florida. Broward Health and the Memorial Healthcare System would see their budgets increased by $16.7 million and $12.8 million, respectively, according to the analysis.\nBroward County funds its public hospitals through special taxing districts. But its public hospitals make money under the tiering system in part because they fall into the second category with only a few other healthcare institutions.\nLeaders at both hospitals still don\u2019t like the law.\nSacco, the Memorial CEO, is especially concerned about the effect it will have on Jackson.\n\u201cWhy would we want to devastate the largest safety net provider in the state of Florida?\u201d he said. \u201cWe wouldn't want it to happen to us. We understand that we need to hold the line on this one.\u201d\nTaken as a group, the state\u2019s safety-net hospitals would be the biggest losers, enduring a total $300 million hit.\nFor-profit hospitals don\u2019t lose nearly as much. Most are not located in counties where Medicaid dollars are being distributed. But they\u2019re still expected as a group to pull in $77 million less under the new arrangement.\nThroughout Miami-Dade County, the reductions would be steep.\nThe University of Miami hospital division, which includes Bascom Palmer Eye Institute and a variety of clinics, would see its funding drop by about $26.6 million.\nMiami Children's Hospital stands to lose $12.8 million, according to the Safety Net Hospital Alliance.\n\u201cIf the cuts occur, we will, of course, continue to enhance efficiency to maintain our level of excellence in patient quality,\u201d Miami Children\u2019s Chief Executive Officer Narendra Kini said. \u201cHowever, there is no question that cuts could ultimately affect the services that we provide to children.\u201d\nEven Baptist Health South Florida, a private nonprofit healthcare system, would see cuts of more than $16.3 million.\nThat would mean a $6.6 million reduction for the 142-bed Homestead Hospital.\n\u201cA hospital like Homestead should receive fair reimbursements because of the tremendous amount of charity care it provides and the large Medicaid population that it serves,\u201d said Vice President of Community Relations Phillis Oeters. \u201cIt is the second busiest emergency room in the county.\u201d\nAll this comes as hospitals already face financing changes.\nThey\u2019re still adjusting to the state\u2019s new Medicaid payment system, which is based on services performed instead of the length of a patient\u2019s stay. In addition, the federal government hasn\u2019t yet told the state whether it will approve other changes to the Medicaid program, making it hard to plan for next year. State and federal officials are fighting openly over a state effort to limit payment for some Medicaid patients\u2019 emergency room visits.\nNonprofit hospitals tried to draw attention to consequences of the new distribution plan last year, but were overshadowed by other matters. Now they\u2019re running out of time.\nTony Carvalho, president of the Safety Net Hospital Alliance of Florida, says the new funding system should be repealed. \u201cWe believe that it\u2019s an arbitrary methodology without a lot of basis in policy,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd we believe the state is best served by deleting the whole section of law.\u201d\nMiami-Dade lawmakers say they will do what they can to help.\n\u201cThat is arguably the most important Miami-Dade delegation priority,\u201d said Rep. Jose Felix Diaz, R-Miami. \u201cThis is the opposite of Robin Hood. It is stealing from the poor to give to the rich.\u201d\nMiami Herald staff writer Daniel Chang contributed to this report.

        "raw_content": "HomeRecruitment GuideHiring Tips for EmployersSuccession Planning In The Interview\nSuccession Planning In The Interview\nSuccession Planning in the Interview: Hiring Leaders not Followers\nIt\u2019s become a running joke amongst many in the professional world that many of today\u2019s job candidates come into companies expecting to be put in the boardroom only to end up in the mail room. While new hire expectations are often overly ambitious, identifying the future leaders of your company should start in the interview process. Very rarely does one go on to rise to a high-ranking corporate position without first having displayed signs of being a successful leader. If you\u2019re able to pick up on those from the moment that he or she is first introduced to the company, then you\u2019re able to steer him or her towards those positions where his or her leadership skills offer the most benefit. Thus, this process of beginning succession planning in the interview allows you more direct influence over the present and future of your organization.\nLook to Future Rather than Focusing on the Past\nNow, if you\u2019re like most business team or HR managers, you many think that the seeds for sowing succession planning in the interview process are first found on an applicant\u2019s resume. It\u2019s there where he or she will highlight any leadership or managerial experience he or she has had in the past. However, while having worked in authoritative positions in the past may be a good starting point for identifying future business managers, it isn\u2019t the primary indicator of a good potential leader. Many times, those in leadership positions adopt a certain managerial style. That style remains with them even as they transition to a new company. On the one hand, it\u2019s good for you to see that a candidate has already adopted certain leadership traits. On the other, if those particular traits don\u2019t fit into your company culture, getting him or her to adapt them to what you want may be difficult.\nThus, a better of indicator of one\u2019s leadership potential in your organization would be his or her willingness to be flexible. This is something that can be conveyed in an interview if you know what things to listen for. If a candidate can\u2019t seem to stop talking about what he or she has already done, then that could mean that he or she already believes that he or she knows everything that\u2019s needed to be a good leader. You would have to then wonder if he or she would be receptive to new ideas and concepts, or simply dismiss them as being different than his or her own formula for success.\nHowever, if rather than focusing on past accomplishments, a candidate speaks more about the excitement that he or she has for encountering new challenges in your organization, this shows that he or she has a willingness to embrace change and adapt his or her own philosophies to accommodate your unique corporate culture. It\u2019s when this happens that you will see the first signs that beginning your succession planning in the interview truly is possible.\nSuccessfully Engaging a Candidate in the Interview\nYet what if a candidate isn\u2019t putting forth enough information on his or her own for you get a good feel for his or her future leadership skills Does this mean that he or she simply doesn\u2019t have them Not at all. Rather, he or she may simply be somewhat guarded, preferring to defer to you to run the interview. At the same time, successful interviews should be engaging conversations, not awkward exchanges of monologue. If you feel it\u2019s getting to this point, not to worry; it doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t still follow the philosophy of succession planning in the interview. You simply need to coax a little more out of the job candidate.\nThis is where your questioning comes in. Remember, though, that you\u2019re not simply trying to get him or her to talk. You\u2019re attempting to see the different aspects of his or her personality, how he or she is at thinking on his or her feet, and how well he or she can develop relationships with others. Don\u2019t stick to the standard \u00ef\u0093Where do you see yourself in five years\u00ef\u0094 sort of questions. Consider different ones such as:\n-\u00ef\u0093Have you ever tried to create a shortcut to a current process, and why\u00ef\u0094\n-\u00ef\u0093Describe something that you\u2019ve learned from a co-worker.\u00ef\u0094\n-\u00ef\u0093Would you rather make a decision or support someone else\u2019s\u00ef\u0094\nBeginning your succession planning in the interview process may not be easy; it requires an added level of insight that, at least up until this point, you haven\u2019t had to dedicate to an interview. However, the overall affect it can have in improving your company both now and in the future makes the extra effort well worth it. You\u2019re not alone in assessing a new hire\u2019s potential leadership skills, either. Mighty Recruiter offers you a number of tools and informative resources that make identifying future leaders for your organization that much easier.",

        "raw_content": "New Jersey Performing Arts Center\u2019s Audio Head Paul Allshouse Ensures Quality Sound with Lectrosonics Duet\n\u201cAfter a lot of research and comparing many brands of IEM products, we decided the Lectrosonics Duet was the best product for our needs.\u201d\nThe Hip Hop Nutcracker to be broadcast live from the NJ Performing Arts Center January 2019\nNewark, New Jersey (December 19, 2018) \u2013 New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC), a world-class arts destination, celebrated its 21st year in October. Since its opening night, NJPAC has drawn more than 9 million patrons, has engaged more than 1.7 million children and their families through arts learning programs and has hosted an array of internationally renowned performers on its stages.\nEntertainment at the arts center ranges from prestigious dance companies, such as Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and American Ballet Theatre; classical music and jazz, including the TD James Moody Jazz Festival and the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra season; comedy showcases; special events, such as an evening with Meryl Streep and Stephen Colbert; and live broadcasts, including the worldwide hit television show, America\u2019s Got Talent.\nNJPAC Head of Audio Paul Allshouse uses Lectrosonics Duet digital IEM wireless monitor system with M2T transmitters and M2R receivers to provide quality sound for clients and performers, supporting a vital part of the center\u2019s expression.\n\u201cWe have four venues at NJPAC under my supervision and a wide variety of groups come in and out of each space, so we need gear that is versatile and durable and works for all of our artists and programs,\u201d says Allshouse. \u201cThat\u2019s why after lots of research and comparing many brands of IEM products, we decided the Lectrosonics Duet was the best product for our needs.\u201d\nAllshouse, who has been with NJPAC for a decade, is responsible for the amplified audio in four of the venues, which seat around 3,664 people in total and include Prudential Hall, Victoria Theater, the Chase Room, and a seasonal amphitheater with additional 3,000-plus outdoor seats in the summer.\n\u201cWhen I\u2019m running four different spaces at a time, frequency coordination is vital. The frequency agility with the Lectro Duet is a major plus. It\u2019s great because we only need one frequency for each stereo IEM. And the Duet provides the digital solution we were looking for.\u201d\nIn addition to longtime, high-demand events like the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition (the \u201cSASSY\u201d Awards), which showcases the talents of five singers selected from among thousands of competitors worldwide, and the annual taping of the Black Girls Rock! Awards, a movement committed to empowering young African-American women, Allshouse is gearing up for a busy winter season as well. The arts center is ready to welcome back its fifth-anniversary touring production of The Hip Hop Nutcracker, an urban twist on the classic holiday story set to hip hop choreography. This will be followed by the traditional rendition of The Nutcracker, performed by the National Ballet Theatre of Odessa.\nWith tens of thousands of events in the history of NJPAC so far, Allshouse spends much of his busy schedule allocating gear, loading, mixing, advancing shows, and coordinating staff.\n\u201cAn added plus with Lectrosonics is their quick customer service and attention to detail if I should ever need their technical support,\u201d he adds.\nWhen asked why he chose Lectrosonics Duet, Allshouse says, \u201cThe Dante integration was a key factor. Also, the sonic quality of the Lectro Duet is superior, as well as being a robust, well-made, and durable product .\u201d\nNew Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC), located in downtown Newark, N.J., is America\u2019s most diverse performing arts center, and the artistic, cultural, educational and civic center of New Jersey \u2013 where great performances and events enhance and transform lives every day. NJPAC brings diverse communities together, providing access to all and showcasing the state\u2019s and the world\u2019s best artists while acting as a leading catalyst in the revitalization of its home city. Through its extensive Arts Education programs, NJPAC is shaping the next generation of artists and arts enthusiasts. NJPAC has attracted more than 9 million visitors (including over 1.7 million children) since opening its doors in 1997, and nurtures meaningful and lasting relationships with each of its constituents.

He alone tells us of the miraculous catch of fish and of its effect on Peter (Luke 5:1-11), the anointing of Jesus by a sinful woman (7:36-50), the women who helped Jesus (8:1-3), Jesus\u2019 rejection by some Samaritans (9:51-56), the mission of the seventy (10:1-12, 17-20), Jesus\u2019 visit with Martha and Mary (10:38-42), teaching on repentance (13:1-5), healing the crippled woman (13:10-17), Jesus\u2019 teaching about Herod (13:31-33), the man with dropsy (14:1-6), the invitation to a banquet (14:7-14), Jesus\u2019 teaching about unprofitable servants (17:7-10), the healing of ten lepers (17:11-19), Zaccheus (19:1-10), the lament over Jerusalem (19:41-44), the words about two swords (22:35-38), Jesus before Herod (23:6-12), the words to the daughters of Jerusalem (23:27-31), three of the \u201cwords\u201d from the cross (23:34, 43, 46), and the whole section on the resurrection after the women at the tomb (24:12-53).

        "title": "Just Getting Started: Ascentium Capital\u2019s Private Equity Boost",
        "raw_content": "Just Getting Started: Ascentium Capital\u2019s Private Equity Boost\nby Phil Neuffer November/December 2016\nAs it celebrates five successful years in business, Ascentium Capital now has additional growth capital available thanks to a recent announcement that private equity firm Warburg Pincus will acquire the company. The investment will allow Ascentium to continue to focus on what it does best: making the financing process easy for small businesses.\nTom Depping,\nThis has been a good year for Ascentium Capital. It was ranked the third-largest equipment finance company in the 2016 Monitor Top Private Independents ranking and celebrated its five-year anniversary later in the summer. Stable growth led Ascentium to those milestones, but, as much as consistency has been key to the firm\u2019s success, some things have changed.\nA major shift took place this fall when funds affiliated with private equity firm Warburg Pincus agreed to acquire Ascentium.\nThe Anatomy of an Acquisition\nSince its inception in 2011, Ascentium had been owned by Vulcan Capital \u2014 a group that included Paul Allen, who helped build Microsoft \u2014 and Luther King Capital Management, a Fort Worth, TX-based investment advisory firm. During five years of this ownership, Ascentium grew at an exceptional pace. When it first started by buying a portfolio and a team from Main Street Bank, Ascentium\u2019s originations were low, as expected, but CEO Tom Depping expects the company to originate $850 million in 2016 with the potential to reach the $1 billion mark next year.\nMotivated by that success, the original ownership group decided it was time to cash out. But Ascentium\u2019s management team was eager to stay in the game and continue on its growth trajectory.\n\u201cThe management view is that we have built this awesome platform, and we\u2019re just getting started. It doesn\u2019t make a lot of sense to sell for us, but for them \u2014 the investors \u2014 they\u2019ve hit a home run,\u201d Depping says. With that in mind, Ascentium retained the services of Goldman Sachs and tasked it with finding a new partner to buy out the original investment group. That led Ascentium to Warburg Pincus, which currently has more than $40 billion in private equity assets under management across more than 120 companies and has invested more than $58 billion in more than 760 companies during its 50-year history.\n\u201cWarburg Pincus is really, in my opinion, the blue chip private equity firm,\u201d Depping says. \u201cIt\u2019s just a great institution for management teams to partner with, so that will give you a feel for why we did what we did.\u201d\nBut after the introduction was made, what was it about Ascentium that made Warburg Pincus want to get on board? Depping believes the decision was a result of Ascentium\u2019s consistent production, proven profitability and talented management team.\n\u201cWhat Warburg invests in are management teams. They were attracted by Ascentium\u2019s management team and the platform. I\u2019m very proud of our platform. It\u2019s a platform that allows us to streamline the lending process to a small business and makes that process something that\u2019s so simple and so easy for a business to borrow money,\u201d Depping says. \u201cWe do it through technology, whether it\u2019s the credit approval process, which we can do in a matter of seconds, to delivering e-docs in a streamlined process, through to the funding process. We have a high repeat business rate, which means customers want to come back for more since we make financing for them very, very easy and that\u2019s what we\u2019re really all about \u2014 the customer.\u201d\nDepping\u2019s assumptions are well-founded.\n\u201cWe plan to continue expanding on the investments the company has made in building an industry-leading financing platform to drive their differentiated approach from traditional small business lending through their unique combination of technology, excellent customer service, speed and flexibility,\u201d says Michael Martin, managing director of Warburg Pincus.\nContinuation and the Direct Channel\nWhat is evident from Depping\u2019s and Martin\u2019s comments is that this move will not alter Ascentium\u2019s plans for the future. Rather, Warburg Pincus is stepping in to lend support as Ascentium continues to build on its first five years of success and provide resources for the company to expand operations and grow.\n\u201cI think the biggest change for our customers, our employees and everybody involved with Ascentium is we are now hooked up with an organization that will provide us growth capital for the future,\u201d Depping says. \u201cThe growth capital means that if we want to make an acquisition that allows us to offer another product to the customer or, for that matter, if we want to just keep growing and continue doing what we\u2019re doing, that we have a very strong company supporting us.\u201d\nAscentium has already launched a full expansion of its growing direct channel business. Originally started as a vendor shop, Ascentium added a direct-to-end-user unit at the end of 2014, and Depping says it has been a great success in the two years since.\n\u201cOur main business is the equipment vendor business, where we get referrals from vendors, and that\u2019s what Ascentium has pretty much done since the beginning. We have an exceptional sales force. We feel in many ways that the sales force is our customer because they\u2019re the ones that bring customers to us and a large portion of our business is done through vendors,\u201d Depping says. \u201cWe will continue to grow both the vendor and direct business channels. Both teams have done a great job. We\u2019ve executed pretty well, and there is substantial opportunity for growth.\u201d\nJust as this deal was gestating (according to Depping, the process began in July), Ascentium\u2019s rapid pace of growth was continuing. The company reported a 30% increase in originations in Q3/16 compared to the same period in 2015, crediting the growth to sustained strength in the technology, commercial vehicle and healthcare segments.\n\u201cWe\u2019re growing our direct business. We\u2019re also getting new vendors and adding to our vendor business,\u201d Depping says. \u201cOne of the main things that drives our business is we have a great sales force and strong marketing efforts whether we\u2019re selling to a vendor or selling direct.\u201d\nLong-Term Investor, Long-Term Perspective\nAs it continues to gain ground on both the vendor and direct channel front, Ascentium clearly has some competitive advantages that have allowed it to rise to the very top of the independent equipment finance world. Warburg will supplement and enhance those advantages by doing more than just providing growth capital.\n\u201cWhat we are able to accomplish is based on the technology platform that allows us to streamline that process and make everything simple and very quick for the customer,\u201d Depping says. \u201cAgain, having Warburg helps us in that we have a world-class company behind us. We\u2019ll now have a very good solid group of networking that we can do through them.\u201d\nJust as this acquisition will not change Ascentium\u2019s strategy for the future, it will not have a major impact on Depping, or his role, as far as he can tell.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t really change it at all. I\u2019m very much excited about the future,\u201d Depping says. \u201cWe\u2019ve built this great platform, and we\u2019re just getting started. It\u2019s nice to know that we\u2019ve closed this deal, and we\u2019ve got a nice long-term investor who takes a long-term perspective.\u201d\nAll told, Warburg\u2019s investment will allow Ascentium to concentrate on its primary focus: small businesses.\n\u201cI think that the key with Ascentium has always been to make the financing process for a small business simple and hassle-free,\u201d Depping says.\nDavid J. Clamage says:\nThe level of creativity, focus and hard work the entire Ascentium team bring to the office each day is what earns them and their many partners this level of success!\nWell you know what they say\u2026 Hind sight is 20/20\nhttp://leasingnews.org/#sued\nI truly wish all those still remaining the best of luck with whats coming, and please understand that in most cases you are not fully aware and have the luxury of not knowing.

THE STORMS DO NOT REACH BRANSON UNTIL ABOUT SEVEN --\nA boat carrying tourists on a Missouri lake capsized in rough waters and sank Thursday night, killing 17 people, officials said. Officials said six bodies were pulled from the Table Rock Lake in Branson Friday morning, bringing the total number of fatalities to 17, including nine members of the same family, according to Missouri Gov. Mike Parson.The grief-stricken community hosted two separate vigils Friday night. In one, about 300 people gathered in the parking lot of Ride the Ducks of Branson and sang \"Amazing Grace.\" Mourners at a church sang the same words.\"Even though we may not know any of them it doesn't matter,\" said Tammy Miesner, 54, of Branson. \"It's a part of our lives to be there for each other.\"State and federal investigators were trying to determine what sent the vessel known as a duck boat to its demise. An initial assessment blamed thunderstorms and winds that approached hurricane strength, but it wasn't clear why the amphibious vehicle even ventured out into the water.Stone County Sheriff Doug Rader said those who died ranged in age from 1 to 70.The Stone County Sheriff's Office in Missouri has released the names of the 17 people who died.The sheriff reported the names as follows:William Asher, 69, from Missouri.Janice Bright, 65, from Missouri.William Bright, 65, from Missouri.Angela Coleman, 45, from Indiana.Arya Coleman, 1, from Indiana.Belinda Coleman, 69, from Indiana.Ervin Coleman, 76, from Indiana.Evan Coleman, 7, from Indiana.Glenn Coleman, 40, from Indiana.Horace Coleman, 70, from Indiana.Maxwell Coleman, 2, from Indiana.Reece Coleman, 9, from Indiana.Leslie Dennison, 64, from Illinois.Rosemarie Hamann, 68, from Missouri.Lance Smith, 15, from Arkansas.Steve Smith, 53, from Arkansas.Bob Williams, 73, from Missouri.Six people were hospitalized.Terrifying video from someone aboard another boat shows the rough waters. Brandei Clifton, spokeswoman for the Cox Medical Center Branson, said four adults and three children arrived at the hospital shortly after the incident. Two adults are in critical condition and the others were treated for minor injuries, Clifton said. Clifton said doctors are confident about their long-term prognosis.A total of 14 people survived.Suzanne Smagala, with Ripley Entertainment, which owns Ride the Ducks in Branson, said the company was assisting authorities with the rescue effort. Smagala added this was the Branson tour\u2019s first accident in more than 40 years of operation.She shared a brief statement Friday morning \u201cWe are deeply saddened by the tragic accident that occurred this evening at Ride The Ducks Branson. This incident has deeply affected all of us.

Last updated 19 July 2018\nGeographically, culturally and historically divided by a central mountain range into a prosperous western sector and isolated eastern sector, Nicaragua is largely overlooked by the Spanish during their conquest of the Americas in the 16th Century. The country becomes a colonial backwater subject to incursions by pirates and foreign interests and to factional conflicts between local cities and landholders.\nIn the late 17th Century Britain claims sovereignty over the country's Caribbean coast, which effectively remains under British control until the end of the 19th Century.\nThe declaration of the country's independence in 1838 brings little stability as the United States and Britain vie for influence. The trend of foreign interference in Nicaragua's domestic affairs is further entrenched in 1855 when William Walker, a soldier of fortune from the US, takes over the country. Walker is expelled in 1857 following intervention from all of Nicaragua's neighbours, the British navy and the US marines.\nThe marines return in 1909 to drive the anti-US dictator Jos\u00e9 Santos Zelaya from power. They return again in 1912, remaining in the country until August 1925.\nFollowing their withdrawal, the country almost immediately begins to descend into civil war and, in May 1926, the marines return yet again, this time remaining until 1933. On their departure Anastasio Somoza Garc\u00eda, the director of the National Guard (the national police force established by the US), begins to lay the groundwork for his ascent to power. He organises the assassination of the resistance leader Augusto C\u00e9sar Sandino and the annihilation of Sandino's guerrilla army.\nIn December 1936 Somoza Garc\u00eda is elected president, ushering in a corrupt dynasty that will last for more than four decades and reach a bloody conclusion under the rule of his son Anastasio Somoza Debayle.",

        "raw_content": "Name: Raoul Wallenberg\nA.K.A.: Full name Raoul Gustav Wallenberg\nIn brief: Raoul Wallenberg is appointed as a secretary at the Swedish Legation in Budapest at the end of June 1944. Unknown to the Nazi occupation forces and the Nazi puppet government, he is also working on a secret operation to rescue Jews in Hungary. Using his diplomatic privileges and authority, Wallenberg sets up a system of \"protective passports\" and safe houses that helps save as many 120,000 Jews from transportation to Nazi death camps. The advancing Soviet Army liberates Budapest on 16 January 1945. The next day Wallenberg is summoned to the Soviet military headquarters. He is never seen or heard from again\nCitation: Harris, Bruce. Sydney, Australia. 'Raoul Wallenberg Hero file'. moreorless.net.au. https://www.moreorless.net.au/heroes/wallenberg.html. Last updated 15 July 2018\nThe First World War ends on 11 November with the signing of a general armistice. Germany has accepted a humiliating defeat. The German king has been forced to abdicate and the Austro-Hungarian Empire has been destroyed.\nHungary proclaims its independence. In 1919 communists seize control of the government and announce the establishment of the Hungarian Soviet Republic. The communists are ousted the same year by a military junta. A campaign of \"white terror\" by the new regime targets communists, socialists, Jews and leftist intellectuals. About 5,000 are executed and 75,000 jailed. Nearly 100,000 flee into exile. Hungarian Jews suffer particularly badly.\nIn 1910 Hungarian Jews number around 900,000, or about 5% of the population. They make up the bulk of the country's middle class and dominate the finance and business sectors of the economy. By 1945 only about 120,000 Jews remain. More background.\nBorn on 4 August 1912 in Kappsta, on the island of Liding\u00f6, about 5 km to the northeast of Stockholm.\nThe Wallenbergs are the wealthiest and most prominent financiers in Sweden. Wallenberg's father, Raoul Oscar Wallenberg, dies of stomach cancer three months before Wallenberg is born. His mother, Maria Wising Wallenberg, remarries in 1918. She has two more children, a son and a daughter, giving Wallenberg a half-brother and a half-sister.\nWallenberg is mentored by his grandfather, Gustav, who is the Swedish ambassador to Japan. After finishing his schooling and compulsory military service, Wallenberg spends a year in France.\nIn 1931 Wallenberg travels to the United States to study architecture at the University of Michigan. He graduates with honours in February 1935 and returns to Sweden.\nWhen he is unable to find work as an architect in Sweden, Wallenberg takes a job in Cape Town, South Africa, with a Swedish building supplies company. Six months later he travels to Haifa in Palestine and takes up a position at the Holland Bank. While in Palestine, Wallenberg meets Jews who have fled Nazi persecution in Germany.\nWallenberg returns to Sweden in 1936 and concentrates on pursuing a career in business.\nIn 1939 Wallenberg joins the Central European Trading Company, a food-trading business owned by K\u00e1lm\u00e1n Lauer, a Hungarian Jew. It is via Lauer and the trading company that Wallenberg becomes acquainted with Hungary. His business trips to Germany, Hungary and Nazi-occupied France also allow Wallenberg to witnesses first-hand the treatment dealt out to Jews by the Nazis and their allies.\n1932 - Gyula Gombos, a far-right reactionary and vehement antisemite, is placed in charge of the Hungarian Government. Gombos establishes ties with fascist leaders in surrounding countries. He visits Italian dictator Benito Mussolini in 1933 and is the first foreign head of government to meet with Adolf Hitler after the Nazi leader is appointed German chancellor. A trade agreement with Nazi Germany helps Hungary rise out of the Great Depression.\nGerman influence also helps Hungary regain some of the territory lost in the reparations settlement that followed the First World War. Between 1938 and 1941 Hungary doubles in size, winning back parts of southern Slovakia in 1938, Carpatho-Ukraine in 1939, northern Transylvania in 1940 and parts of Vojvodina in 1941.\nHowever, while territory is recovered and the economy rebounds, Hungary's Jews face mounting persecution from the country's increasingly radical antisemites.\n1936 - Gyula Gombos announces that he will introduce a Nazi-like, one-party, fascist state. Though Gombos dies in October, his policies continue. A so-called Jewish Law is introduced to limit Jews to 20% of the positions in designated businesses and professions. A second, harsher Jewish Law passed in 1939 broadens the definition of \"Jewishness\" and further limits Jewish participation in society.\nOver the coming years the level of government-sanctioned persecution escalates. Jewish property is expropriated. Jews are banned from buying real estate and working in the media. Sexual relations between Jews and non-Jews are outlawed. Conversion to Judaism is forbidden. Ultimately Jews are deported to Nazi death camps.\nAt elections held in June 1939, the Arrow Cross Party wins the second highest number of votes. The Arrow Cross is the Hungarian equivalent of Germany's Nazi Party.\nPoland is overrun within a month. Most of Eastern Europe is under German control by the middle of 1940.\nSweden remains neutral throughout the war, enabling its embassies and missions around Europe to remain open and active.\nHungary sides with the Germans. In September 1940 Hungary grants free passage to German troops travelling to Romania. On 20 November 1940 Hungary formally allies itself to Germany, Italy and Japan.\n1941 - Germany invades the Soviet Union on 22 June. Hungarian troops join the Germans on their march east. By January 1942 one third of Hungary's armed forces are committed to the Soviet campaign. They also become involved in battles against the Western Allies.\nIn July 1941 Hungry begins to cooperate in the Nazi persecution of the Jews. About 18,000 Jews are deported east from Hungary to newly occupied territory in the Soviet Union. About 15,000 of the deportees are executed by the Nazis. Six months later Hungarian troops massacre 2,600 Serbian and 700 Jewish hostages near Novi Sad in Yugoslavia.\n1942 - On 20 January the Nazis complete the planning for the Endlosung (Final Solution), the extermination of the Jews, Gipsies, Slavs, homosexuals, communists, and other \"undesirables\" and \"decadents\" in death camps run by the Schutz-Staffel (SS). About six million European Jews die in the following Holocaust. Most (about 4.5 million) of those killed come from Poland and the Soviet Union. About 125,000 are German Jews.\n1943 - The war turns against Germany in the winter of 1942-43 when the Germans and their allies are defeated by Soviet forces at Stalingrad (now Volgograd). Hungary's Second Army is decimated during the Soviet counterattack. About 40,000 Hungarian soldiers are killed and 70,000 wounded.\n1944 - The Hungarian Government begins to waver in its support for Germany. In response, German troops occupy the country on 19 March. The Germans install a puppet government headed by a Nazi supporter. The government increases Hungary's contribution to the Nazi war effort and crushes dissent. Political leaders are jailed and unions are dissolved. The deportation of Jews to Nazi death camps in Poland begins.\nThe deportation operation is directed by Adolf Eichmann, the so-called \"the architect of the Holocaust\".\nJews from the countryside are the first to be targeted, with over 437,000 being sent to their deaths at Auschwitz-Birkenau. It is the largest deportation operation in the history of the Holocaust, and one of the quickest, beginning on 14 May and ending on 9 July.\nA wave of international protests helps end the operation, including a direct request from Swedish King Gustav V to Hungarian head of state Miklos Horthy that the deportations be stopped.\nThe Swedish Legation in Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is also allowed to issue provisional passports and certificates to Jews with links to Sweden, saving about 700 from deportation.\nBefore the deportations begin about 725,000 Jews live within Hungary. When they end only about 260,500 survive, mostly in Budapest.\nMeanwhile, the newly-formed US War Refugee Board and the World Jewish Congress ask the Swedes for help in organising a rescue mission for Jews in Hungary. When Jews in Sweden are approached for advice K\u00e1lm\u00e1n Lauer recommends that Wallenberg be selected as the operation's front-man. K\u00e1lm\u00e1n Lauer is the owner of the food-trading business that employs Wallenberg.\nWallenberg is appointed as a secretary at the Swedish Legation in Budapest at the end of June 1944. Though superficially an employee of the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, he actually receives instructions from the World Refugee Board. The Board, along with the Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, also provides the funding for the operation.\nWhen Wallenberg arrives at Budapest on 9 July the city's 230,000-strong Jewish community remains under threat. Jewish homes have been seized and their businesses and bank accounts have been confiscated. Jews have little freedom of movement and are regularly attacked by uniformed Arrow Cross Party militiamen.\nWallenberg begins to use all means available to him to secure the safety of the Jews, assembling a staff that will come to number over 300 to implement his plans.\nWallenberg devises a \"protective passport\" to complement the \"provisional passports\" already issued to Jews by the Swedish Legation. Though holding no real legal authority, the \"protective passports\" save thousands of Jews.\nSafe houses under the full protection of the Swedish Government are set up throughout the city. The houses provide Jews with shelter from the Nazis and the Hungarian fascists.\nBribes are paid, threats are made and favours are asked to rescue Jews. When the need becomes more desperate the format of the protective passes is simplified so that even more can be handed out.\nPer Anger, a Swedish career diplomat serving in Budapest at the time, later recalled Wallenberg's impact on the staff at the Legation.\n\"At first he shocked some of us professional diplomats with his unconventional methods,\" Anger said, \"But we soon realised that his working methods were right.\"\nWhen asked by Anger why he took such risks, Wallenberg replied, \"To me there's no other choice. I've accepted this assignment and I could never return to Stockholm without the knowledge that I'd done everything in human power to save as many Jews as possible.\"\nWallenberg establishes a network of contacts within the Hungarian fascist movement and the Budapest police. He confronts the Germans directly, including Adolf Eichmann.\nThe advancing Soviet forces reach Hungary in September. Chaos ensues. When, on 15 October, Hungarian head of state Miklos Horthy announces he wants to negotiate a peace deal with the Soviets, the Arrow Cross, led by Ferenc Szalasi and aided by the Germans, seize power.\nThe Soviet occupation of Hungary becomes a drawn out campaign. The Soviets do not enter Budapest until 16 January 1945 and the last of the German forces are not driven from the country until 4 April 1945, leaving the Nazis and the Arrow Cross with between three and six months to continue their plans for Hungary's Jews.\nArrow Cross militiamen terrorise the city, killing over 10,000 Jews. On 17 October 1944, Adolf Eichmann returns to Hungry to complete his work.\nThe deportations resume in November. Thousands of Jews are forced on 150 km \"death marches\" from Budapest to the Austrian border, from where they are taken to concentration camps in Austria and Germany.\nWallenberg intercepts the marches, handing out food, clothes and medicines and cajoling guards and officials to release Jews who hold protective passes. He uses similar methods to rescue Jews being transported by rail.\nWhen, in the days before the Soviets capture the city, the Nazis and Arrow Cross militia threaten to massacre the inhabitants of Budapest's largest Jewish ghetto, Wallenberg intervenes.\nThrough an intermediary he warns the commander of the German SS troops stationed in the city that he will ensure that the commander is called to account as a war criminal if the massacre proceeds. The Germans retreat without initiating their plan.\nIn all, Wallenberg's efforts, along with those of the Swiss Consulate, the Pope's representative in Budapest, the Red Cross, and others, have saved the lives of as many as 120,000 Hungarian Jews.\nAbout 70,000 remain alive in the ghetto. Another 25,000 have survived in Wallenberg's safe houses. Around 25,000 more have hidden elsewhere. They are the only substantial community of Jews left in Europe.\nWallenberg, however, is unable to save himself. On 17 January 1945 he is called to the Soviet military headquarters at Debrecen, 190 km east of Budapest. Neither he nor his driver ever return.\nWallenberg is arrested by Soviet military intelligence and transported to the Lubyanka prison in Moscow. Because of his associations with the US War Refugee Board it is likely that the Soviet's suspect Wallenberg of being a US spy. They may also think he is spying for the Germans.\nWallenberg never emerges from the Soviet penal system.\nThe Soviets later report that he died while in custody on 17 July 1947. According to the Soviet report, the cause of death was a heart attack. Wallenberg's body is said to have been cremated without an autopsy.\nOn 27 November 2000, Alexander Yakovlev, a senior Russian official, claims that Wallenberg was executed. \"We do not doubt that he was shot at Lubyanka (prison),\" Yakovlev says. \"We must put an end to this story, which has acquired an acute international significance and has been poisoning the atmosphere for a long time.\"\nHowever, Yakovlev presents no documentary evidence to support his claim.\nDiaries of Ivan A. Serov, the first head of the Soviet Committee for State Security (KGB), also state that Wallenberg was executed. They do not provide a date but do claim the execution was carried out on the order of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin and foreign minister Vyacheslav M. Molotov.\nOther reports suggest that Wallenberg may have survived within the Soviet prison system beyond 1947.\nGermany surrenders unconditionally on 7 May 1945. The war in Europe is over.\nThe Hungarian Republic is proclaimed on 1 February 1946. Acting under the protection of the Soviet Union, the Hungarian Communist Party takes government. The communists remain in power until 1990.\nIn the reparations settlement that follows the war, Hungry loses all the territory gained between 1938 and 1941.\nFerenc Szalasi, the leader of the Arrow Cross, is tried as a war criminal in 1946 and sentenced to death. Adolf Eichmann escapes to South America. In 1960 he is kidnapped in Buenos Aires, Argentina, by agents of Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, and taken to Israel for trial. Eichmann is found guilty of crimes against the Jewish people, crimes against humanity and war crimes and executed on 31 May 1961.\nIn 1981 Wallenberg is made an honorary citizen of the US. In 1985 he is made an honorary citizen of Canada, and in 1986 an honorary citizen of Israel. Israel also recognises him as one of the Righteous Among the Nations, an honour reserved for those who saved Jews during the Holocaust. In 2013 Wallenberg is declared the first ever honorary citizen of Australia. In 2014 he is awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, the US Government's highest civilian honour.\nA monument commemorating Wallenberg is unveiled in Budapest in 1987.\nIn 2000, after nine years of investigation, a joint Swedish-Russian Working Group is unable to reach a definitive conclusion about Wallenberg's fate. The Russian members of the working group maintain that Wallenberg died in prison on 17 July 1947.\nIn 2001 a memorial honouring Wallenberg is unveiled in Stockholm. In 2012 Hungary hosts a year-long commemoration of Wallenberg's life. At the start of January 2013, the Swedish Government announces that Wallenberg will be honoured each year on 27 August with an annual commemoration day.\nWallenberg is formally declared dead by Swedish authorities in October 2016. It is 71 years since his disappearance.\nThe disappearance of Raoul Wallenberg stands as one of the cruellest twists of the Second World War.\nHere we have a man who selflessly and courageously saves more European Jews from the Holocaust than any other person. With the danger apparently past, this man is arrested and detained by the Soviets, for reasons unknown. To all intents and purposes he is then abandoned by his homeland. After spending more than two years in detention he is most probably executed, perhaps by firing squad, perhaps by some more sinister means. No one really knows. Those responsible for his demise at first deny any knowledge of his fate. Then they provide one story, then another, then another following that. But no definitive evidence of what befell Raoul Wallenberg is ever produced.\nAnd there is another twist to Wallenberg's fate that is even more cruel. In his last hours of freedom Wallenberg was still attempting to secure the safety of Budapest's Jews. He travelled to the Soviets knowing he was at risk but still with the welfare of the Jews uppermost in mind. He wished to save them from any Soviet aggression. He succeeded, but at the cost of becoming mortally entangled in Soviet suspicion and intrigue.\nRaoul Wallenberg's fate illustrates that there is no justice in war. No justice in war, and little anywhere else. Wallenberg didn't \"deserve\" his fate, but, in a world without justice, \"deserve\" doesn't mean a thing.\nRaoul Wallenberg - Report of the Swedish-Russian Working Group\nRaoul Wallenberg - Jewish Virtual Library\nProfile of a Leader: The Wallenberg Effect\nRaoul Wallenberg - Wallenberg Legacy, University of Michigan\nAn Honourable Citizen: Raoul Wallenberg - Hindsight - ABC Radio National",

        "raw_content": "A Roadmap for Project Selection\nMay 24, 2016 - Over the last couple of weeks I\u2019ve had occasion to discuss the project selection process with a client, and I thought this diagram might be useful as a general roadmap.\nThe first step is to clarify the strategic and regulatory imperatives of the organization \u2013 the collection of activities that must be executed at a high level of capability for the organization to be successful.\nStep two is to identify a way of measuring the performance of each imperative, as well as a target performance objective representing the required to be considered successful.\nOnce those key performance metrics and targets are established, actual performance can be compared to the target. Any shortfall in performance, or gap, must be closed by some activity. That\u2019s step three \u2013 which establishes the scope of work that must be performed.\nHaving quantified the gap to be closed, the next steps are to identify specific projects to help close the gap. These projects fall into two categories: those that address known root causes to implement known (or mostly known) solutions (step four), and those that address unknown root causes and unknown solutions (step five).\nThe known root cause and known solution arena representing step 4 is comprised of capital projects, IT implementation projects, and simple process improvement efforts (e.g. the room is cold, the window is open, so shut the window). These are projects where the tasks to implement can be identified at the front end.\nThe last step on the diagram, step 5, represents projects of discovery since the root cause and solution set are unknown. This is the realm of Lean Six Sigma: DMAIC projects fix more complex process problems, rapid improvement (Kaizen) events, and new product or process design efforts. These are projects where the specific tasks to implement are NOT known at the front end \u2013 only the questions to be answered are known.\nIn practice, project identification and selection is a lot more complicated than this simple diagram, but it\u2019s always best to start with a conceptual roadmap that is as simple as possible.\nExcellent perspective to simplify prioritization. Many leaders have been promoted over the years because they came with solutions (what they knew, or what is described in as \"Known.\" Helping leaders to focus on what is \"Unknown\" can often feel like unnatural. Excellent overview to talk to this point. Thanks Bill for sharing.\nBill Zeeb\nIt has been interesting to watch various aspects of the Six Sigma methodology morph over the years. My first Process Map was in 1983 and everything had circles because that was the only drawing template I had. They have become so exotic that I am sure you have to be able to get a Masters degree in Process Mapping. This blog is addressing a much more critical issue to not only the success of each individual project but to the deployment. It lays out a process that can be followed, measured and improved. Continuously improving the continuous improvement process because it is not exempt from the need to iterate and become more efficient. Being able to identify the best projects available is a critical skill to a successful deployment. Just my opinion.",

        "raw_content": "Registration Morocco Desert Challenge 2019 is open\nToday, August 1st, the registration for the MDC2019 is officially open. A number of enthusiasts could not wait and have already confirmed and paid their participation. In the car category, for example, one of them is Nuno Matos, the rally-raid champion from Portugal, who is not competing with the Opel Mokka this time, but with a Toyota Overdrive. Godfried Lintjens was the first with the SSV's, but he's not alone: no less than 20 side-by-sides from France, the Netherlands and Belgium have confirmed today! Chances are big that SSVs will become the biggest category in the 11th edition of MDC, but traditionally the interest from the trucks is also high.\nLast year we had to disappoint a few people who were too late so do not wait too long to register; full is full. For those who register before the end of September, the price remains the same as 2018.\nYou can register as usual via Competitor Control.

        "raw_content": "Home / Archives / Fall 2016 / The Pinch-Hitting Playbook: When Misfortune Claimed Its DP Mid-Shoot, An American in Texas Bounced Back\nThe indie moviemaker\u2019s mindset can be almost masochistic in its privation; it lives and dies by that ringmaster\u2019s mantra \u201cthe show must go on.\u201d But even that spirit has its limits.\nTen days into shooting his upcoming film An American in Texas, Anthony Pedone lost his right arm. Not literally, mind you, but considering he\u2019d been working on the film, his feature directorial debut, since 2010, he might have been open to losing an appendage over losing his DP and creative partner, Bianca Butti.\nHaving a crew member, especially one as essential as Butti was to An American in Texas, drop out of a production can send even the most ardent of artistic hearts reeling. When disaster strikes, how do you cope?\nPedone and Butti met at Slamdance in 2013. He invited her to screen two of her shorts, \u201cThe Proprietor\u201d (which she directed) and \u201cBUNNi\u201d (which she shot), at the Victoria Texas Independent Film Festival, which he\u2019d started the year prior. By that time, Pedone and his childhood friend Stephen Floyd were working on a script. Set in Victoria and loosely based on Pedone and Floyd\u2019s youthful exploits as fringe-dwellers in conservative rural Texas during the outbreak of the First Gulf War, An American in Texas follows a group of disenchanted teens (played by James Paxton, J.R. Villarreal, Charlotte Best, Sam Dillon and Tony Cavalero) through the drug-fueled alienation of inky Texas nights.\nIt\u2019s a dark film, and in Butti was just the person Pedone needed to externalize that darkness. The look she engineered behind the camera is paramount to the film\u2019s ominous themes. \u201cWithout Bianca\u2019s ability conceptualize a visual style for us, it could have still just been a script about stuff we did while we were tripping in 1990,\u201d says Pedone. \u201cWe didn\u2019t make a shot list. She did. I just rambled like a crazy person.\u201d\nDP Bianca Butti (forefront) with director Anthony Pedone (right) on the set of An American in Texas. Photograph by Stuart Allister\nButti, for her part, characterizes their working relationship as \u201ctelepathic.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ll set up a shot, or I\u2019ll start lighting, and he\u2019ll look at it and be like, \u2018Yes, that\u2019s exactly what I was thinking.\u2019 We don\u2019t even have to talk to each other, and that doesn\u2019t often happen between DP and director.\u201d Yet the project had its share of touch-and-go. \u201cA lot of our locations came in the last minute, so we couldn\u2019t block. Besides, we didn\u2019t get the actors until they were ready to shoot because we didn\u2019t have the money to bring them out and do rehearsals.\u201d\nButti pushed the right buttons and pulled the right strings. She brought in gaffer Carlos Benavides, fresh from the set of From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series, who in turn brought along camera operator Julian Quiambao, his Red in tow. Working with a SAG ultra low budget of under $250,000, they managed to secure a Red Scarlett and a Red Epic-X, fitted them with Prime CP.2s on camera A and Zeiss Zooms on B, plus an eclectic assortment of wide lenses. They scraped together a small lighting package: some Mole-Richardsons, two Arri kits, a couple of Kinos\u2014\u201cwhatever the hell B&H is selling these days,\u201d Pedone chuckles. Together, they made it work.\nThen, as preproduction logistics gave way to actual shooting in November 2015, Butti received some life-altering news. \u201cBefore preproduction, I had felt a lump in my breast,\u201d she says. \u201cI had a packed work schedule, so I was pushing off looking at what was going on. I told Anthony about it and he freaked out and was like, \u2018You need to take care of this.\u2019\u201d\nAmidst the throes of production, Butti scheduled doctors\u2019 appointments and lab tests. \u201cWe would get home at two in the morning, and I would get up early and go to the hospital. Then I would drive the camera car full of equipment with my first AC, and then shoot all day.\u201d\nTen days into shooting, Butti\u2019s phone rang. \u201cIt was the day before Thanksgiving, and we were shooting at Anthony\u2019s father\u2019s house. I got a call from the doctor, who said, \u2018I have some bad news. You have cancer.\u2019\n\u201cIt was a pretty difficult pill to swallow. I was like, \u2018I\u2019m in the middle of shooting this movie. I can\u2019t leave. I\u2019ve worked so hard, put all my energy into this project.\u2019\u201d Pedone, though, told her to put herself first.\nButti\u2019s sudden departure could have been the end for the film. \u201cShe was the one calling the shots, so everyone lost their boss,\u201d says Pedone. Determined to keep shooting, Pedone and Butti called upon Quiambao, then second camera operator, to step into the DP chair.\nQuiambao vividly remembers Butti taking him aside. \u201cShe asked if I was willing to lens the rest of the project. She said, \u2018You have a great eye and I trust you.\u2019 I realized instantly that I had to go over Bianca\u2019s notes, wed them in my mind, keep with her style. She didn\u2019t give me any specific instructions, which was great, but also nerve-wracking.\u201d After taking over, he texted Butti a single production question, \u201con how black she liked her blacks.\u201d\nWhile undergoing treatment, Butti returned to Victoria in June 2016 to shoot pick-ups. Photograph by Anthony Pedone\nNot that Butti allowed herself to completely let go. \u201cBianca was there by phone,\u201d says Pedone. \u201cWe\u2019d take screenshots on the monitor and ask her, \u2018Is this what you\u2019re thinking here?\u2019 She had the schedule with her and would follow along and give her input. Just because she was gone didn\u2019t mean she was out of the picture.\u201d In June of this year, Butti returned to Victoria for pick-ups; with the project currently in post, she\u2019s involved in the editing as well, as she continues treatment.\nThe shoot lasted 40 days; Pedone proudly describes it as \u201cballs to the wall.\u201d He feels that the turmoil led to a deeper emotional investment from his cast and crew\u2014who, he says, never balked despite some risky situations. \u201cPeople were having lamps thrown at them. Actors were climbing flagpoles with no stunt people. We were smashing through walls in an abandoned apartment complex at three in the morning. But nobody bailed. Everybody pulled together.\u201d\nThe lesson? When the worst happens\u2014as it bound to do\u2014place faith in those who placed faith in you. \u201cBelieving in a project and trusting in a complete fucking stranger for $100 a day; that\u2019s a lot to ask of somebody,\u201d says Pedone. \u201cAnd the spirit that fuels people to do that? Man, bow down to that spirit.\u201d\nAmen. MM\nAn American in Texas next screens October 26-29, 2016, at the US in Progress program at the American Film Festival in Wroclaw, Poland.

        "raw_content": "Can\u2019t Get Your Credit Report Online? You\u2019re Not Alone\nAnnual Credit Report was set up by the three major credit bureaus and the government, so that all of us can see what information, about us, is distributed to creditors, landlords, employers, insurance agents, utility services and more. The idea is that we can go online, answer a few questions about ourselves and the information in our reports and, viola, see our data.\nUnfortunately, it does not always work that way. Many people experience problems accessing their reports online. When they cannot see their report, they are referred to a form that must be mailed into the credit bureaus in order to obtain their credit report.\nWhat is rarely communicated with that form, is that people need to submit proof of their identity, as well. This typically means three pieces of information:\n- An identification card (driver\u2019s license, military ID, state issued ID, etc.).\n- Item verifying social security number.\n- Pay stub with the social security number\n- W2 form\n- Address verification. The driver\u2019s license or ID may be used for this purposes as well. Otherwise a rental or lease agreement, pay stub with address or utility bill are typically accepted.\nIf you do not submit these items with the form, the credit bureau will typically mail you a letter requesting them. This can make the process of obtaining your credit report take months.\nWhen all of the necessary information is submitted to the credit bureaus together, you should receive your reports within two-to-four weeks.\nWhy Can\u2019t I Get My Report Online?\nThe most common reasons for being unable to access your credit reports online is being unable to remember key pieces of information. The other issue may be that the address you entered when requesting the report does not match the address the credit bureau has on file.\nAnswering questions incorrectly can happen for a number of reasons. Sometimes people are asked about accounts that they do not have. The answer seems simple enough, \u201cNone of the above.\u201d But confusion may lead to selecting the wrong option.\nOthers are not sure of the name of creditors listed on their credit report or the amount of loan payments that they make on accounts. Both of these are common questions and if you\u2019re unsure, you may choose the wrong answer.\nFinally, some people cannot remember the names of streets they lived on long ago. In some cases, a person may have lived on the street 50 years ago and have no recollection of the name.\nHere are a few quick tips for making the process of obtaining your credit reports, online, a painless experience.\nIf you have an old copy of your credit report review it prior to requesting the new report. You can look at old addresses, older accounts, dates accounts were opened and more to help you answer questions more confidently.\nIf you have auto loans or home loans, keep your statements handy. These type of accounts are likely to show up in the questions.\nIf you have moved within the last two years, fill in the section of the questionnaire requesting your previous address.\nIf you have tried to obtain your credit reports online and via the mail and are still unsuccessful, contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. They may be able to contact the credit bureau and speed up the process for you. They also collect information about the credit bureaus and work with them to make the process to obtain our credit reports simpler.",

        "raw_content": "Key Strategies for Encouraging Innovation and Creativity in the Workplace\nWhen you\u2019re running a business, and trying to grow it and achieve your goals on a budget, it\u2019s important to do everything you can to innovate and solve problems creativity. This is not only much cheaper in the long run, but can also help your business to interest investors, stand out in a crowded marketplace, discover potentially best-selling product or service ideas, generate more leads and referrals, provide top-notch customer service, and improve productivity.\nNo matter what industry your venture is in, or the types of wares you sell, you should have a focus on improving innovation and creativity in the workplace every day. Read on for some simple yet effective strategies you can employ in your business to help it soar.\nBe A Supportive Boss\nTo begin with, never forget that, like so many things, encouraging innovation and creativity needs to start from the top. If you want your team to feel free to think outside the box, they need to be continually supported to do so. Workers should feel safe to try new things, take risks, and not be worried about being penalized if their ideas don\u2019t pan out. If they\u2019re constantly worried about being made to look foolish, or being rebuked, for innovative suggestions, they won\u2019t look for ways to see problems or opportunities in a new light, and will simply keep playing it safe. Be a better boss!\nTo encourage staff members to be creative, focus on having a positive corporate culture, whether you give workers regular, helpful feedback. Consider rewarding innovative workers too. This isn\u2019t about necessarily cheering people on only for ideas that work, but also for coming up with interesting suggestions. Think about motivating employees with gifts, awards, public recognition, bonuses, fun perks, and the like.\nIn addition, look for ways to act on at least some of the ideas presented by staff. This is one of the best ways to be a supportive manager when it comes to innovation, because it shows team members their ideas are being listened to, taken seriously, and invested in. From here, they will then be more motivated to try harder to be creative in the future.\nAnother way to support workers is to give them the chance to keep learning new things. It is much easier for people to come up with innovative ideas when they are exposed to new opinions and training, and have the time and flexibility to pursue their interests. As such, consider paying for employees to study, whether it\u2019s via a California MBA program, an international conference, or some in-house training or speaker presentations.\nEncourage Diverse Teams & Flexible Work Practices\nAnother way to foster creativity is to encourage cross-pollination between team members. While individuals can come up with interesting ideas by themselves, innovation really soars when people have the chance to chat and work with colleagues they normally wouldn\u2019t meet or collaborate with.\nEncourage people from different departments, locations, cultures, and other backgrounds to mix and exchange ideas and opinions. Create new project teams with people with diverse strengths, weaknesses, and career experience, and see what they can come up with together. Ensure everyone is given equal input and responsibility for the project, and let them learn from and encourage each other.\nAs well, it\u2019s a good idea to let your employees work from different locations on a regular basis. This might include days working from home, at coffee shops, off at corporate retreats, in alternate areas of the office, or even in different branches of the business. A change in workspace can quickly lead to seeing things with fresh eyes, and innovative ideas in turn.\nEncourage Creativity-Boosting Techniques\nLastly, keep in mind that there are plenty of creativity-boosting techniques to try. For example, brainstorming, done right, can be very helpful. This strategy works well when people get together in pairs or larger groups to bounce ideas off each other.\nHowever, proper brainstorming isn\u2019t about only some people talking or about ideas being shut down; effective sessions revolve around each participant going to the \u201cedges\u201d of a problem or idea as much as possible. Assure workers that there are no silly ideas in these sessions, and that instead, they are to go beyond rational thought and be as open as possible to stretching their imaginations.\nIt often works well to put limits in place to help teams be more creative too. This is because constraints tend to help people think more laterally. By only being allowed to come up with ideas that fit within certain criteria (these can be fun, crazy limits too, not serious ones), the brain has to work harder to think in new ways. Often, from this process, ideas that normally wouldn\u2019t have even come up will arise, and these can lead to clever innovations that have a big impact on business.\nI hope you enjoyed this article about effective tactics for improving innovation and growing a creative spark in the office.\n- 4 Crucial Leadership Skills For The Office\n- Effective Advice To Enhance Your Career",

        "raw_content": "By C. Stinard | November 2, 2017 | Diabetes | 7 | Leave a comment | 2017-11-02 25 November 2017\nSimple lifestyle changes and natural supplements are the keys to prevent diabetes and avoid the expense and inconvenience of insulin injections and medications to treat diabetes. Perhaps the most convincing evidence of this was reported in an extensive study of randomized trials in 2012. Among the findings: \u201cBefore the onset of T2DM, there are two conditions characterized by blood glucose levels that are above normal but below the threshold for diabetes. If screening for T2DM in introduced, many people with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) will be found and it is necessary to consider how they should be treated.\u201d The conclusion: \u201cIn people with IGT, dietary change to ensure weight loss, coupled with physical activity, is clinically effective and cost-effective in reducing progression to diabetes.\u201d\nHere are dietary and exercise recommendations listed in the Harvard Health Blog:\n1. Eat foods that help stave off diabetes. Divide your plate into 3 sections:\na) Fill one-third of your plate with lean protein\u2014fish, legumes, beans, tofu, and/or skinless chicken;\nb) Fill one-third of your plate with green vegetables\u2014spinach, broccoli, kale, or Brussels sprouts; and\nc) Assess your hunger based on a five-point scale:\n\u2022 Starving\n\u2022 Ok\u2014satisfied\n\u2022 Stuffed\nThe goal should be to sit down to a meal when you\u2019re Hungry, and stop eating when you\u2019re Satisfied.\n2. Exercise 3 times a day for 10 minutes:\n\u2022 In the morning when you wake up, stretch for 10 minutes.\n\u2022 After lunch, take a brisk 10-minute walk.\n\u2022 After dinner, strength train with light hand weights or an exercise band for 10 minutes.1\nAs with Alzheimer\u2019s, many doctors are telling patients that there is no cure for diabetes. However, there are several protocols that incorporate natural herbal remedies that are reported to be effective. We recommend talking with your health care practitioner about taking supplements for diabetes, especially if you are taking prescribed medications.\nChromium picolinate may help some people with type 2 diabetes decrease fasting blood glucose levels as well as levels of insulin and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Chromium may also produce modest weight loss, although the evidence is mixed. Taking 500 mcg twice daily significantly decreases HbA1c levels (a marker of blood sugar control) after two months of treatment.2\nGinseng has shown some sugar-lowering effects in fasting and after-meal blood sugar levels, as well as in A1c results (average blood sugar levels over a 3-month period). Researchers have found that the amount of sugar-lowering compound in ginseng plants varies widely. Caution is advised because there are different varieties of ginseng and some forms of ginseng may actually raise blood sugar levels.3 Korean red ginseng was found to be safe and effective in one study.4\nVanadium has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity and lower the need for insulin. However, of 151 studies of humans recently reviewed, none were of sufficient quality to judge whether or not vanadium is at all beneficial for treating type 2 diabetes. The researchers did find that vanadium was often associated with gastrointestinal side effects. At present, it is not possible to say whether vanadium is helpful (or, for that matter, safe) for people with 5 Therefore, we recommend not taking it unless it is recommended by your health care provider.\nCoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10) helps cells make energy and acts as an antioxidant. A review of 16 randomized controlled trials in 2016 found that Co-Q10 supplementation slightly but significantly reduced fasting blood glucose, but not fasting insulin and HbA1c.6\nEvening primrose oil is the most popular and widely available source of GLA, a polyunsaturated fat (\u201cgood\u201d fat, as opposed to saturated fats that may increase the risk of heart disease). Evening primrose oil is used to treat the common complication of diabetes mellitus diagnosed as diabetic neuropathy (also called neuritis). Recommended dosages are in the range of 500 to 1,300 mg per day, providing 45 to 275 mg of GLA.7\nPlant Foods rich in fiber,vitamins, and minerals. Certain plant foods may help your body fight inflammation and use insulin.\nBrewer\u2019s yeast is a rich source of the mineral chromium, which has been studied for its ability to improve blood sugar. However, people allergic to yeast or who are more likely to have yeast infections should not take brewer\u2019s yeast. Also, people with diabetes should talk to their doctor before taking brewer\u2019s yeast, since it can interact with their medicines and cause lower than expected blood sugar in patients with diabetes For adults, brewer\u2019s yeast can be taken at a dose of 1-2 tablespoons per day. The powder form can be added to food or mixed with water or juice.8\nBuckwheat: Researchers say the active ingredient in buckwheat thought to be responsible for the blood sugar lowering effects is chiro-inositol. This compound is found in high levels in buckwheat and rarely found in other foods.9\nCinnamon: Some, but not all, studies have found cinnamon may modestly improve blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes whose blood sugar is not well controlled with medication. In an analysis of 10 clinical trials investigating the use of cinnamon (either a liquid extract or raw powder, the researchers concluded that a dose between120 mg extract and 6 grams of bark powder per day \u201cmay have a beneficial effect on fasting plasma glucose, LDL-C, HDL-C, and triglyceride levels in patients with type 2 diabetes,\u201d but found no \u201cstatistically significant effect on HbA1c\u201d. A study conducted at a Federal hospital of prediabetic military personnel that was concluded in December, 2016 compares the effects of Metformin and cinnamon in reducing blood sugar. The results had not been published when this article was published, but when they are, you will be able to find the results at this web address: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/results/NCT01302743?sect=X01256#all. A dose of 1 gram (1,000 mg or 1/2 teaspoon) of cinnamon bark powder per day may be sufficient to cause a blood sugar-lowering effect in people with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes.10\nCloves: Clove has been discovered to help prevent adult onset diabetes by tripling insulin levels.11 One study points to improved cardiovascular and diabetes risk factors in type 2 diabetics taking the equivalent of one to two cloves per day.\nCoffee: Studies have shown that coffee may protect against type 2 diabetes.Coffee may also have other health benefits, including protecting against Parkinson\u2019s disease, and liver disease, including liver cancer. Coffee also appears to improve cognitive function and decrease the risk of depression.12 A Harvard research study also found decreases in the risks of contracting type 2 diabetes by increasing coffee consumption by 1 cup per day and increases in the risk by decreasing coffee consumption by 1 cup per day. \u201cIt\u2019s unclear if it\u2019s something in the coffee beans or if it\u2019s in the caffeine. Some studies show reduced risk of type 2 diabetes with decaffeinated as well as caffeinated coffee, but the results have been more consistent for caffeinated coffee. Some possible explanations, beyond caffeine, include chlorogenic acid, which may delay glucose absorption, magnesium, and polyphenols,\u201d says Dr. JoAnn Manson, coauthor of the study and professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. However, drinking more than 3 cups a day of caffeinated coffee may lead to insomnia, nervousness, and the jitters.13 Harvard researcher Rob van Dam, PhD recommends that coffee drinkers switch to decaf.\u201d . . . coffee has a positive effect on diabetes. But it is becoming increasingly clear it is not the caffeine that is beneficial. The picture is now evolving where we see that some other components of coffee besides caffeine may be beneficial in long-term in reduction of diabetes risk.\u201d In fact, van Dam says, it appears that decaf coffee may actually help people keep their blood sugar under control, whereas regular coffee has a detrimental effect on blood sugar. Caffeine unbalanced by other coffee compounds, he says, may be even worse.14 The take-away from that last sentence is that other caffeinated beverages, such as soft drinks, are to be avoided by those at risk for diabetes.\nOkra: As a food that is high in fiber content, it can be an important part of dietary treatment for diabetes. Increased dietary fiber intake has been shown to promote better glycemic control and improve insulin sensitivity.\nFenugreek seeds: In a 2-month, double-blind study of 25 individuals with type 2 diabetes, use of fenugreek (1 g per day of a standardized extract) significantly improved some measures of blood sugar control and insulin response as compared to placebo. Triglyceride levels decreased and HDL (\u201cgood\u201d) cholesterol levels increased, presumably due to the enhanced insulin sensitivity.15\nSage: In another randomized trial of 86 people, with high cholesterol and diabetes, sage leaf extract improved fasting glucose, HbA1c, cholesterol (HDL and LDL), and trigycerides when compared to placebo. Recommended for use as tea or gargle: 1\u20133 grams of dried sage is steeped in a cup of water, and taken three times daily. The equivalent dose of tincture or extract may also be used.16\n2 Consumer Lab Product Review: Chromium Supplements, https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/chromium_supplements/chromium/\n3 Consumer Lab Product Review: Chromium Supplements, https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/ginseng_supplements/ginseng/#cautions\n4 Korean red ginseng (Panax ginseng) improves glucose and insulin regulation in well-controlled, type 2 diabetes: Results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of efficacy and safety, http://www.nmcd-journal.com/article/S0939-4753(06)00109-8/fulltext\n5 Consumer Lab, Natural and Alternative Treatments: Vanadium, https://www.consumerlab.com/tnp.asp?chunkiid=21881\n6 Effect of Coenzyme Q10 Supplementation on Diabetes Biomarkers: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27544369\n7 Product Review: Flaxseed Oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Borage Oil,and Black Currant Oil Supplements: Sources of ALA and GLA(Omega-3 and -6 Fatty Acids) https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/Evening_Primrose_and_other_sources_of_good_fats\n8 Brewer\u2019s Yeast, https://www.consumerlab.com/tnp.asp?chunkiid=625843\n9 Buckwheat May Help Manage Diabetes, https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/news/20031121/buckwheat-may-help-manage-diabetes\n10 Product Review: Cinnamon Supplements and Spices, https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/cinnamon-supplements-review/cinnamon/\n11 Health Benefits of Cloves: When All Else Fails, Try a Little Clove Oil, http://naturalsociety.com/health-benefits-of-cloves-clove-oil/\n12 Does coffee offer health benefits? https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/coffee-and-health/faq-20058339\n13 Coffee may help reduce type 2 diabetes risk, say Harvard researchers, https://www.health.harvard.edu/diseases-and-conditions/coffee-may-help-reduce-type-2-diabetes-risk-say-harvard-researchers\n14 Caffeine Risks May Rattle Diabetic People, https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/news/20080128/caffeine-risks-may-rattle-diabetics#1\n15 Fenugreek, https://www.consumerlab.com/tnp.asp?chunkiid=21712\n16 Sage, https://www.consumerlab.com/tnp.asp?chunkiid=111802\nDiabetes \u2013 Risks & Precautions Dec 21, 2017",

The station names are Gruy\u00e8res and Broc-Fabrique. It has recently been discussed here. It is quite a long trip from Luzern though: 2.5 to 3 hours one way, so you're looking at a very long day if you want to visit all three sites. See the timetable for details.",

        "raw_content": "Forgotten works will open the new opera season in The National Theatre\nThe Opening Concert 2015/2016 will open with the Festive Overture in C Major by Bed\u0159ich Smetana from 1868 written in honour of laying the foundation stone of the National Theatre on 8 September 2015. The National Theatre Orchestra will play this and other rare compositions under the baton of artistic director of the Opera Petr Kofro\u0148.\nA novel program consisting of nineteen orchestral numbers from the period 1850- 1973, whose scores are stored in the music archives of The National Theatre, were discovered and prepared by Peter Kofro\u0148 in cooperation with the chief dramaturg of the National Theatre Opera and the State Opera Ond\u0159ej Hu\u010d\u00edn.\n\"This time we focused on the so called the dark side of the music archive, the music little-known or completely unknown, forgotten in the archival shelves and simply collecting dust. Although roughly half of them come from rather renowned and certainly unforgettable authors such as Otakar Jeremi\u00e1\u0161, Zden\u011bk Li\u0161ka, V\u00e1clav Trojan, Franti\u0161ek \u0160kroup, Zden\u011bk Fibich or even Bed\u0159ich Smetana,\" says Ond\u0159ej Hu\u010d\u00edn.\nThe Smetana Festive Overture in C major was played only twice over the last half-century at the National Theatre, in 1973 at the matinee in honour of the famous diva Ema Destinnov\u00e1 and the last time seven years ago, during the celebration of the 125th anniversary of the reopening of the theatre.\nPhilandering (Na zaletech) is the ballet pantomime of several authors, among others Charles Forgeron, which is the pseudonym of the former head of the opera, conductor and composer Karel Kova\u0159ovic. The seriousness of his profession probably did not allow him to sign his name under a scenic pasticcio of a lighter genre. The concert will feature a playful polka, which is in Act 1 of the ballet.\nAnother rare item in musical archives of the National Theatre is scenic music, which was composed for the play by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti The Drum of Fire by another icon of Italian futurism Francesco Balilla Pratella. The play was presented at The National Theatre as the hot new thing directly in the world premiere (1922). By staging The Drum of Fire, the theatre gave a refreshingly clear indication that it does not want to be just an academic institution guarding traditions.\nThe upcoming evening is the first of a series of ten concerts at the National Theater in the season 2015/2016. The next concert will be held on November 8, 2015, will be devoted to the Gala Concert marking the 50th anniversary of the Anton\u00edn Dvo\u0159\u00e1k International Vocal Competition in Karlovy Vary. Laureates of this festival will perform under the baton of conductor Libor Pe\u0161ek, among others Ren\u00e9 Pape, Adam Plachetka or Roman Jan\u00e1l. The first opera premiere of the National Theatre in the new season will be Vincenzo Bellini's Norma directed by Japanese director Tomo Sugao. The premieres are scheduled for 2 and 4 October 2015 at The State Opera.",

The two were married from 1976 to 1983, and Paul says he watched as Kathie Lee became manipulative and controlling as she desperately pursued fame\u2026\n\u201cKathie Lee turned our marriage into something to exploit early on,\u201d said Paul in a 1999 interview in The National ENQUIRER. Now riding high co-hosting the third hour of \u201cToday\u201d with Hoda Kotb, Kathie Lee was looking for a showbiz \u201cin\u201d when they first met, says Paul.\n\u201cShe twisted the arm of a friend to introduce us one day at a recording studio,\u201d he recalled. \u201cShe loved my recordings, and gushed all over me like a groupie. I was flattered by the attention coming from a pretty girl, but it felt way over the top to me.\u201d\nYet, after Paul met Kathie Lee\u2019s family, he came away impressed, thinking he\u2019d seen a different side to the pushy wannabe. \u201cI thought if this was the kind of family she came from, I must have misjudged her,\u201d Paul says.\nThe two wed in a small ceremony at his home in April 1976, and the fact she was willing to marry him \u201cwithout putting on a big show convinced me that she truly did love me,\u201d he admits. \u201cMost of my friends thought she was a gold-digger, but I was convinced they were wrong.\u201d\nDespite that, their marriage soon degenerated into a power struggle. Kathie Lee \u2014 who\u2019d landed a gig on the \u201cHee Haw\u201d spin-off \u201cHee Haw Honeys\u201d in 1978 \u2014 sought the spotlight, and became resentful of her husband\u2019s success.\nAt singing performances, she began to humiliate Paul, who as her musical director stood right behind her, conducting the orchestra. \u201cShe made me the fall guy for her jokes,\u201d he recalls. \u201cI\u2019d pretend to laugh, but inside I was dying.\u201d\nKathie Lee, shown here in 1985 with Placido Domingo, also sought the attention of anyone who could help her career \u2014 at her husband\u2019s expense. \u201cShe would come on to older men right in front of me!\u201d Paul said. \u201cIf they were rich and powerful, or had connections in show business, she would slobber all over them.\u201d\nKathie Lee also was extremely jealous of Paul \u2014 and once stormed out of a jingle session he was recording because he hadn\u2019t hired her for the part! She remained convinced she was star material, and would pout for days \u201cand punish everyone around her\u201d when she didn\u2019t get what she wanted, Paul said.\n\u201cKathie Lee lives as if the cameras are rolling 24 hours a day. She truly believes the world revolves around her.\u201d Finally, on a trip to Hawaii, their problems boiled over when they bat- tled over \u201cher career and me not paying her enough attention,\u201d Paul says.\nKathie Lee flew back home the next morning, and they split for good when he returned home. In 1986, Kathie Lee married ex-football star Frank Gifford. They had two children and were married until Frank died at age 84 in 2015.\n\u201cSometimes I adored Kathie Lee,\u201d said Paul. \u201cSometimes I wanted to strangle her.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "By Heather Brady 15 August 2017\nWhile the devices are now being used to herd animals worldwide, the cows in this video seem afraid of it.\nWill cowboys and herding dogs soon be replaced by aerial drones?\nThat's the question that comes to mind when watching recent video of a drone used to herd cattle in California.\nAt the start of the video, the herd of cows is distracted by a flock of birds flying above them. However, as the drone flies closer to them, they all stand still and face the direction it\u2019s coming from. When the drone gets within a few feet of them, they shy away from it fearfully.\nFinally, the herd becomes nervous enough that it turns and runs away from the drone, which \u201cherds\u201d them across the field. The cattle spend most of the rest of the video running at full speed away from the drone. Still, because the drone hangs back from the herd during parts of the video, it is unclear if the animals' fear of the drone is really what keeps them moving.\nThe popularity of drone use in agriculture has increased over the past few years, and drones are now being used around the world to herd animals like cows and sheep. People who move herds over large swaths of land are saying it\u2019s a more efficient and effective way to get the job done, and it allows them to keep an eye on the land and cattle more easily.\nWhile sheep seem to be unfazed by drone herders, Australian drone operator and pilot Cameron Parker says cattle need to be trained in order for drone herding to be effective, according to an International Business Times article.\n\"Because they're prey animals their natural instinct is to run away, so when you first introduce them to this drone you have to do it in a spot where they can't run,\" Parker told a group of onlookers as he demonstrated the technique.\nThe cattle in the video from California can be seen bolting from the drone, so they would likely need more exposure to drones in order to be safely herded by them. Making cattle run at full speed can increase their risk for injury.\nBut as herds become more accustomed to the devices over time, cattle ranchers may be able to save money and time by using them, boosters say.\nHeader Image: Drone used to 'herd' cattle.

        "raw_content": "US Navy Ship Sinking Exercises (SINKEX)\nOne way of disposing of decommissioned and stricken warships is to use them as targets during sinking exercises (SINKEX). The Navy conducts most of these exerices at four major locations: north of Kauai, HI; off California; off the US east coast and off Puerto Rico. The exercises are focused on honing weapons firing skills and proficiency.\nOther locations are mainly chosen for two reasons:\n- the ship is intented to become an artificial reefing at this special location (e.g. USS Spiegel Grove (LSD 32), sunk in the Florida Keys area). Ships used for this purpose are often only sunk by explosive charges and not by bombs, torpedoes etc.\n- the target ship previously suffered severe damage during an accident and repairs or a transfer back to the US are not cost-effective (e.g. USS La Moure County (LST 1194), sunk off the coast of Chile)\nClick on one of the red dots in the map on the left to get a detailed map of the respective location featuring some of the ships sunk there. Dots with a \"x\" inside are not available yet.\nBefore a SINKEX, everything that might harm the environment is removed from the target ship. On November 25, 2003, President Bush signed the National Defense Authorization Bill (HR 1588 Sec 1013), allowing appropriate decommissioned ships to be donated for use as artificial reefing. This will result in the increase of the number of ships used for this purpose and is intented to reduce the size of the inactive ships inventory in a cost-effective and environmentally sound manner. The first ship in the program was the aircraft carrier USS Oriskany (CV 34).\nBack to last Page To Selection Page Back to 1st page",

Lillian Carranza, commanding officer of the Los Angeles Police Department's Commercial Crimes Division said at an Oct. 2 news conference.\nThe police captain said then that the three were believed to be part of a small ring of gang members and associates responsible for a series of break-ins at celebrities' homes.\n\"During recent months, the Los Angeles Police Department has become aware of a series of residential burglaries targeting actors, producers, musicians and professional athletes living in the Los Angeles area,\" Carranza said. \"Initially, it was believed that these homes were being burglarized at random. However, detectives learned that this wasn't the case. The victims' homes had been selected based on social media postings and touring or travel schedules of the owners. The burglars believed no one would be home and that the homes would contain sought after valuables that they might be interested in.\nThe burglaries followed a pattern called \"flocking,\" whereby suspects flock to celebrities' neighborhoods, dressing in nice clothes and driving luxury vehicles to avoid suspicion as they search for targets. They would then change into casual clothing, including hoodies, and use a larger vehicle to haul away stolen items, Carranza said.\nInvestigators said in October that they also recovered a list of additional public figures, including Los Angeles Lakers player LeBron James, actors Matt Damon and Viola Davis, that were also targeted for possible break-ins.",

G. Carus, Technical University Dresden, Germany.\nThe Diabetes Intervention Study (DIS) is a prospective population-based multicentre trial of newly detected cases of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). This report analyses the risk factors for subsequent coronary heart disease and all-cause death during the 11-year follow-up. The prognostic significance of the categories of the NIDDM Policy Group was validated with respect to the incidence of coronary heart disease and mortality. At baseline 1139 subjects, aged 30-55 years at the time of diabetes detection and classified as diet controlled after a 6-week screening phase, were included. Of the patients 112 (15.2%) suffered from myocardial infarction, 197 (19.82%) of 994 had died. The odds ratio for all-cause mortality compared to the general population for males at the age of 36-45 years was 5.1 and for females 7.0. In multivariate analysis age, blood pressure and smoking were independent risk factors for myocardial infarction and male sex, age, blood pressure, triglycerides, postprandial blood glucose and smoking for death, respectively. The categories of the NIDDM Policy Group target parameters for blood glucose, triglycerides and blood pressure were significant predictors of both CHD and death. Thus, it appears that in NIDDM good control of blood glucose, blood pressure and triglycerides is associated with a lower incidence of coronary heart disease and death rate respectively.\nDiabetes Mellitus, Type 2/mortality\nMyocardial Infarction/physiopathology",

        "title": "John La Rose \u2014 New Beacon Books",
        "raw_content": "John La Rose\nJohn La Rose (1927\u20132006) was born in Arima, Trinidad, on 27 December 1927. At nine he won a scholarship to St Mary\u2019s College, where he later taught before becoming an insurance executive. He also taught in Venezuela.\nHe was an executive member of the Youth Council in Trinidad and produced their radio programme, \u2018Voice of Youth\u2019. In the mid-1950s he co-authored with the calypsonian Ramond Quevedo \u2013 Atilla the Hun \u2013 a pioneering study of calypso entitled Kaiso: A Review, republished in 1983 as Atilla\u2019s Kaiso.\nIn the 1940s John helped to found the Workers Freedom Movement and edited their journal Freedom. He was an executive member of the Federated Workers Trade Union, later merged into the National Union of Government and Federated Workers. He became General Secretary of the West Indian Independence Party and contested a seat in the 1956 General Election for the party. He was also involved with the Oilfield Workers Trade Union, becoming their European representative from 1962 onwards.\nJohn arrived in Britain in 1961. In 1966 he founded New Beacon Books, the first Caribbean publishing house, bookshop and international book service. Growing up in a colonial society in the Caribbean made John acutely aware that colonial policy was based on a deliberate withholding of information from the population. There was also a discontinuity of information from generation to generation. Publishing, therefore, was a vehicle to give an independent validation to one\u2019s own culture, history and politics \u2013 a sense of self \u2013 and to make a break with discontinuity. It is this conception which permeates the work of New Beacon. In 1966 John, along with the Jamaican writer and broadcaster Andrew Salkey and the Barbadian poet and historian Kamau Brathwaite, co-founded the Caribbean Artists Movement, providing a platform for Caribbean artists, poets, writers, dramatists, actors and musicians.\nIn 1972/73 he was Chairman of the Institute of Race Relations and Towards Racial Justice. John was involved in the Black Education Movement from the 1960s, particularly in the struggle against banding, and the placing of West Indian children in schools for the educationally sub-normal. He founded the George Padmore Supplementary School for West Indian children in 1969 and helped found the Caribbean Education in Community Workers Association. In the 1980s he was instrumental in setting up the National Association of Supplementary Schools, and was its Chairman for a time. In 1975, after a black schoolboy was assaulted by the police in Haringey, John La Rose and concerned parents founded the Black Parents Movement to combat the brutalisation and criminalisation of young blacks, and to agitate for youth and parent power and decent education.\nThe Black Parents Movement, in alliance with the Race Today Collective and the Black Youth Movement, became the most powerful cultural and political movement organised by blacks in Britain. The alliance formed the New Cross Massacre Action Committee in response to the arson attack which resulted in the death of 14 young blacks, and mobilised 20,000 black people and their supporters in March 1981 to protest the death of the young people and the failure of the police to conduct a proper investigation. John La Rose was the Chairman of the New Cross Massacre Action Committee and gave tremendous support the bereaved families. John was also part of many organisations focusing on international concerns. In 1982 he helped to found Africa Solidarity, supporting the struggle against dictatorship and tyranny in Africa, and he also became Chairman of the Committee for the Release of Political Prisoners in Kenya.\nIn response to the rise in fascism and xenophobia, he helped to found European Action for Racial Equality and Social Justice, bringing together anti-racists and anti-fascists from Belgium, Italy, France and Germany. One of John La Rose\u2019s greatest achievements was the International Book Fair of Radical Black and Third World Books (1982-95), organised jointly with Bogle L\u2019Ouverture Books and Race Today Publications. He was joint director with Jessica Huntley of the Book Fair and from 1984 its sole director. John was the editor at New Beacon Books and of their journal, New Beacon Review, and published two volumes of his own poetry, Foundations (1966) and Eyelets of Truth Within Me (1992). He also did some filmmaking from the 1970s.\nThe George Padmore Institute, an archive, library and educational research centre housing materials relating to the black community of Caribbean, African and Asian descent in Britain and continental Europe, was established in 1991 and chaired by John La Rose. The Institute continues the traditions and methods of work that New Beacon Books and the organisations connected with it have developed since 1966. John La Rose was part of a Caribbean tradition of radical and revolutionary activism whose input has reverberated across continents. The depth and breadth of his contribution to the struggle for cultural and social change, for racial equality and social justice, for the humanisation of society, is unparalleled in the history of the black experience in Britain.",

        "raw_content": "CHAPMAN: Trump\u2019s attack on socialism no help to capitalism\nSteve Chapman | Syndicated columnist\nCapitalism deserves better defenders than this.\nSocialism has always been a tough sell in the United States. While socialist parties won substantial support in many Western countries over the course of the 20th century, they were confined to the fringes here. In 1932, in the depths of the Great Depression, the Socialist Party presidential candidate got just 2 percent of the vote.\nBut the outlook has brightened lately \u2014 as demonstrated by the electoral achievements of Bernie Sanders, who won 23 primaries and caucuses in the 2016 Democratic presidential campaign, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, elected to Congress last year.\nBoth wear the label proudly.\nNow, though, socialists have gotten a boost from an even more prominent politician. \u201cWe are alarmed by the new calls to adopt socialism in our country,\u201d President Donald Trump said in his State of the Union address. \u201cTonight, we renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country.\u201d\nCapitalism deserves better defenders than this. It has been the greatest engine for the conquest of poverty and suffering in history. It has led to the mass production of marvels that our ancestors could not have imagined.\nIt has fostered personal freedom, broken down oppressive traditions and aided in the spread of democracy. Even European social democracies understand that capitalists and markets are indispensable. There is no constituency in America for nationalizing factories, financial institutions or farms.\nGiven his low standing among voters, particularly young ones, Trump\u2019s attack on socialism \u2014 or \u201csocialism\u201d \u2014 amounts to a huge gift to the left. For fans of capitalism, it should evoke embarrassment.\nDemocrats have grown more liberal, but that shift is not because they have been gorging on Karl Marx. It\u2019s partly because some of them have a shaky grasp of economics \u2014 and an aversion to its inconvenient truths.\nBut it\u2019s partly because some social problems have gone unsolved by those leaders who defend free market capitalism. And it\u2019s partly because conservatives have grown more addicted to rigid ideology and less open to pragmatic remedies.\nYou could denounce public roads and bridges, state universities, community hospitals, and national parks as \u201csocialism.\u201d But the question is not whether they are owned by the government. The question is whether they work \u2014 and work better than possible private alternatives.\nBarack Obama proposed a health care overhaul based on a plan once championed by the conservative Heritage Foundation. It relied heavily on measures to make private insurance available and affordable to more people. But not a single Republican in Congress voted for it. Many of them reviled it as socialistic.\nIn fact, it was a classic specimen of welfare-state capitalism, trying to regulate private markets for social purposes. No true socialist liked it.\nIt would be easier to argue that \u201cMedicare for all\u201d amounts to a dangerous socialist scheme. But the same claim was made about the original Medicare. In 1964, Ronald Reagan predicted that if it came to pass, Americans would \u201cspend our sunset years telling our children and our children\u2019s children what it once was like in America when men were free.\u201d\nSomehow most Americans don\u2019t feel enslaved by a program that ensures health care for the elderly. Will Wilkinson, vice president for research at the Niskanen Center in Washington, notes \u201csome of the freest countries in the world, and the most capitalist, have single-payer systems.\u201d\nHe\u2019s right. In the latest Economic Freedom of the World report, co-published by the Cato Institute and the Fraser Institute, the freest nation is New Zealand \u2014 which has a single-payer approach akin to \u201cMedicare for all.\u201d Second is Switzerland, which provides universal coverage through a system reminiscent of Obamacare.\nConservatives depict any expansion of government as a step on the path toward socialist dystopia. But they slight the value of government action to correct failures of the market \u2014 such as voluminous carbon emissions, which produce climate change.\nThey also disparage the importance of providing reliable help to people who are in dire need for reasons largely beyond their control, whose numbers exceed the ability of private charity to help. Government programs should be judged not just on the costs they impose but also on the benefits they yield.\nTo warn of the onslaught of socialism in response to any proposed government initiative is to expose your intellectual bankruptcy. The better approach is to spell out exactly why it is doomed to fail or backfire \u2014 as so many government programs are.\nIf the best argument you make against a policy idea is that it\u2019s socialist, you shouldn\u2019t bother. You\u2019ve already lost the debate.\nSteve Chapman is a syndicated columnist with Creators Syndicate. Follow him on Twitter @SteveChapman13 or at https://www.facebook.com/stevechapman13.",

        "raw_content": "MU pilots Roche\u2019s cloud-based NAVIFY Tumor Board solution to streamline and standardize data collection and presentation, enabling faster, better collaboration among oncology care teams\nINDIANAPOLIS and COLUMBIA, Mo., June 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ \u2014 Roche (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) announced today the result of a collaboration with the University of Missouri School of Medicine (MU School of Medicine) to implement\u2014for the first time in the U.S.\u2014Roche\u2019s new software solution to streamline and standardize the management of tumor boards, or multi-disciplinary meetings oncology care teams hold to make clinical treatment decisions for cancer patients.\nManaging tumor boards can be labor intensive and time consuming for healthcare providers because it often requires manually collecting and organizing patient information from various sources\u2014radiology and microscope slide images, pathology reports, electronic medical records and much more. \u201cOur goal in working on this pilot with the MU School of Medicine and clinicians at MU Health Care was to fine-tune a digital decision support tool that could help transform the tumor board process,\u201d said Alan Wright, MD, MPH, chief medical officer for Roche Diagnostics Corporation. \u201cThe collaboration gave us the opportunity to improve the software in a way that would fundamentally change the way their oncology care teams prepare for, conduct and document clinical treatment decisions for cancer patients.\u201d\nThe new NAVIFY Tumor Board solution is designed to streamline and standardize tumor board workflows by combining relevant patient data from disparate sources into a cloud-based workflow solution and dashboard that facilitate efficient team collaboration, reduce errors, and give the care team more time to evaluate potential treatment options.\nIn addition to piloting the software for Roche and providing extensive feedback in the development process, MU Health Care has now used the newly launched commercial version of the software for actual tumor boards with two of its nine oncology care teams, and plans to implement the software across all of the remaining teams in the near future.\n\u201cAs an academic health center, one of our goals is to bring innovation and discovery to the field of medicine,\u201d said Jerry Parker, PhD, associate dean for research at the MU School of Medicine. \u201cWith our partners at Roche, we\u2019ve only begun to explore the possibilities, but we already see tremendous potential for this type of solution to help advance cancer care. The workflow is much easier for our oncology nursing staff to manage, and the patient information is presented much more clearly, so we expect that to improve efficiency in the meetings and create more time for in-depth discussion of patient cases and the best treatment options.\u201d\nThe software is designed to create a centralized repository of tumor board data, which will eventually enable MU Health Care providers and other oncology care teams to see how similar patients were managed in the past, and allows remote participation of experts from outside the location during the meeting, facilitating the concept of virtual tumor boards.\n\u201cThere is the opportunity for a software solution like this to expand access to tumor boards in smaller communities,\u201d added Dr. Parker. \u201cIt\u2019s estimated that less than 50 percent of cancer patients in the U.S. benefit from tumor boards, in part because many communities are not in close proximity to oncology providers. I can foresee a day when a small community provider or hospital will be able to upload data to a regional cancer center tumor board to get access to highly specialized advice regarding their patients\u2014or participate in tumor boards themselves remotely. There is exciting potential there to expand quality healthcare for cancer patients regardless of their location.\u201d\nAbout the NAVIFY portfolio\nThe NAVIFY brand represents Roche\u2019s commitment to provide healthcare professionals with digital workflow and decision support solutions that transform patient care. The first commercially available product in the portfolio is the NAVIFY Tumor Board solution, a comprehensive dashboard for oncology care teams that enables them to standardize preparation, streamline presentation and ensure a more efficient workflow for individualized treatment decisions. The software is built and hosted on a secure cloud platform that is HIPAA compliant to ensure patient data security and privacy.\nThe portfolio will continuously evolve to include additional decision support applications and workflow products that address challenges faced by healthcare providers and research professionals.

That\u2019s the main goal for me to be a consistent test player.\u201d\nSkipper Brendon McCullum said he wants the lefthander in the side.\n\u201cWe would love to have Jesse in our team. He\u2019s got some issues that he\u2019s dealing with at the moment and he\u2019s making progress. But when he\u2019s fit and healthy and fine in his own space and performing as he is back home he\u2019ll be a vital member of the team.\u201d\nHe has played 18 tests, the last one being the win over Australia in Hobart in 2011, and was looking forward to a return.\n\u201cI think I\u2019ll be fine. I\u2019ve had a good 11 months off and worked on a lot of stuff\u2026you\u2019re always going to have your failures in cricket.

Hopefully the boys can pull together and get a result out of these one-dayers coming up.\n\u201cThey are a lot better players than what they are showing at the moment.

July 1 marked the start of a weekend where Americans host barbeques, watch fireworks, let their kids run around with sparklers and wear an inordinate amount of red, white and blue to celebrate the Nation\u2019s independence.\nFriday also marks one of the busiest hockey days of the summer for hockey operations and communications departments throughout the National Hockey League. Known as the \u201cFree Agency Frenzy,\u201d teams throughout the NHL dealt players and signed unrestricted free agents for top dollar.\nMarty Reasoner #19 of the Florida Panthers and Jason Spezza #19 of the Ottawa Senators wait for linesman Ryan Galloway #82 to drop the puck on March 31, 2011 at the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida. The Senators defeated the Panthers 4-1. Click photo to view gallery.\nOn Long Island, fans wondered what kind of acquisition Islanders General Manager Garth Snow would make. At approximately 3:15 p.m., those questions were answered as the news of Marty Reasoner\u2019s two-year contract hit the press wire.\n\u201cWe\u2019re extremely excited to add Marty to the organization,\u201d Snow said. \u201cHe provides leadership. He has great speed that will help us in the offensive zone. He will be relied on in important faceoff situations.\u201d\nSnow added, \u201cWe didn\u2019t have many holes on our roster going in to this day, but Marty is a player that can help create that competition and produce.\u201d\nA veteran of the league, Reasoner was drafted by the St. Louis Blues 14th overall in 1996 and then signed his entry-level contract two years later, making his NHL debut during the 1998-99 season. Three seasons later, he joined the Edmonton Oilers, where he played the majority of the next six seasons and grew into his own. A trade deadline transaction sent the Honeoye, NY native to Boston for the final 19 games of the 2005-06 season.\nThen in 2008-09, Reasoner played two seasons for the Atlanta Thrashers before playing all 82 games with the Florida Panthers last season, recording an NHL career-high 32 points (14 goals, 18 assists).\nReasoner, who will enter his 12th NHL season this October, served as an assistant captain several times throughout his career, thus he\u2019s excited and expected to bring leadership to the Islanders young core.\n\u201cIt\u2019s exciting going to a good young team,\u201d Reasoner said. \u201cHaving an opportunity to help this team get to the next level is going to be a good challenge and it\u2019s going to be fun. There is a lot of excitement around the team with so many young guys. They\u2019re on their way. I just want to go in and do my part to help.\u201d\nAfter watching the Islanders play last season, and playing against them in four games, Reasoner watched the Islanders transformation and knows just how talented his new teammates are.\nMarty Reasoner #19 of the Florida Panthers controls the puck under pressure from Chris Campoli #14 of the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center on March 23, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois. The Blackhawks defeated the Panthers 4-0. Click photo to view gallery.\n\u201cI think towards the second half of the season, a lot of people and teams started to notice they were a tough team to play against,\u201d Reasoner said. \u201cWe played them in Florida twice during the second half and they had their way with us. They were a tough team to match up against. They are building in the right direction. Hopefully that can translate into a really good start this October so that we\u2019ll have a great year.\u201d\nKnown as a two-way centerman, Reasoner is also an effective penalty killer, whose faceoff percentage ranks in the top 25 percent of the league, but what he\u2019ll be concentrating on most, is being the player who can fill any role when needed.\n\u201cI\u2019m going to come in and work hard on faceoffs, be there on the penalty kill and be solid two-ways, trying to chip in offensively, but really be good defensively,\u201d Reasoner said. \u201cReally for me, it\u2019s just trying to help out in any way that I can, whatever it may be on any given night. As you get older, you try to be as versatile as you can and be able to play in as many situations as you can.\u201d\nOverall, Reasoner couldn\u2019t be more happy with his decision to become an Islander.\n\u201cI\u2019m good friends with Mike Mottau,\u201d Reasoner said. \u201cI went to school with him (at Boston College) and he has only good things to say about Long Island, so my family is really excited about it. When you talk to guys and they only have good things to say about the direction of the team and how much they enjoy living there, that obviously helps make your decision.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Antimicrobial Drug Resistance News Releases\nA new study from National Institutes of Health scientists and their Thai colleagues shows that a \u201cgood\u201d bacterium commonly found in probiotic digestive supplements helps eliminate Staphylococcus aureus, a type of bacteria that can cause serious antibiotic-resistant infections. The researchers, led by scientists at NIH\u2019s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), unexpectedly found that Bacillus bacteria prevented S. aureus bacteria from growing in the gut and nose of healthy individuals.\nWHAT:Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading infectious cause of death worldwide, killing roughly 1.6 million people in 2017. In the past 200 years, TB claimed the lives of more than one billion people\u2014more deaths than from malaria, influenza, smallpox, HIV/AIDS, cholera and plague combined.\nA more intensive biomedical research approach is necessary to control and ultimately eliminate tuberculosis (TB), according to a perspective published in the March 2018 issue of The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. In the article, authors Anthony S. Fauci, M.D., director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, and Robert W.\nU.S. Hospitals Testing Experimental Therapies to Prevent Two Common Bacterial Infections\nThe National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, is supporting U.S. clinical sites participating in two ongoing international Phase 2 clinical trials evaluating investigational antibody-based therapies aimed at preventing potentially antibiotic-resistant infections. By aligning the NIAID Antibacterial Resistance Leadership Group (ARLG) with a large international consortium leading the effort, the U.S. investigators hope to enroll 30 adult patients from 15 intensive care units in the trials.\nNIH Study Will Assess Biomarker as Potential Indicator of Whether Lower Respiratory Tract Infections Improve with Antibacterial Treatment\nA new clinical trial sponsored by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, aims to determine whether low blood levels of the protein procalcitonin can reliably indicate whether a person\u2019s lower respiratory tract infection will improve with antibiotic treatment.\nMethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria are resistant to multiple antibiotics and commonly cause skin infections that can lead to more serious or life-threatening infection in other parts of the body. In new findings published in The New England Journal of Medicine, researchers found that two common, inexpensive antimicrobials can help patients heal from MRSA skin abscesses. The findings suggest that current treatment options for MRSA still have a role, even as scientists continue to search for new antimicrobial products.\nIn June 2013, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), provided $2 million in funding to establish an Antibacterial Resistance Leadership Group (ARLG) to develop, prioritize and implement a clinical research agenda to address the growing public health threat of antibiotic resistance. A new series of articles appearing in the March 15th issue of the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases details the group\u2019s progress and outlines its ongoing and future efforts.\nNIH Scientists Illuminate Role of Staph Toxins in Bacterial Sepsis\nStaphylococcus epidermidis bacteria are a significant health concern for hospitalized infants, children and anyone with implanted medical devices. The bacteria\u2014typically skin dwellers\u2014can infect the bloodstream and cause a life-threatening condition known as sepsis. Between 1 and 3 million people a year in the United States are diagnosed with sepsis, and between 15 and 30 percent of them die. Severe bacterial sepsis is characterized by an extreme immune response, inflammation, reduced blood flow, clotting, and organ failure. Methicillin-resistant strains of S.\nNIH Advances Understanding of Defenses Against Antibiotic-Resistant Klebsiella Bacteria\nKlebsiella bacteria cause about 10 percent of all hospital-acquired infections in the United States. K. pneumoniae sequence type 258 (ST258) is one of the Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae organisms labeled an urgent threat by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This strain of bacteria is particularly concerning because it is resistant to most antibiotics and kills nearly half of people with bloodstream infections.\nShortened Treatment for Middle Ear Infection is Less Effective than Standard Course\nA five-day antimicrobial treatment regimen for middle ear infections in young children is inferior to the standard 10-day regimen, according to newly published research in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). Middle ear infections (or \u201cacute otitis media\u201d) are common childhood illnesses often caused by bacteria and usually treated with antibiotics. However, overuse or inappropriate use of antibiotics (for example, to treat viral infections of the middle ear) can accelerate the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance.\nPhysicians at five U.S. medical centers are planning to enroll up to 400 children in a clinical trial to evaluate whether a shorter course of antibiotics\u2014five days instead of 10\u2014is effective at treating community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children who show improvement after the first few days of taking antibiotics.\nNIH Scientists Detail Pathways for Addressing Antimicrobial Resistance\nResearchers must address the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance and stay ahead of the inevitable future emergencies of resistant bacteria, according to physicians and scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health. Writing in JAMA, the authors stress the urgent need for new strategies to identify and develop new antibiotic drug candidates and vaccines and other interventions to prevent bacterial infections.\nNew NIH Awards Will Support Development of Therapeutic Alternatives to Traditional Antibiotics\nNew NIH awards will support development of therapeutic alternatives to traditional antibiotics the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, has awarded approximately $5 million in funding for 24 research projects seeking to develop non-traditional therapeutics for bacterial infections to help address the growing health threat of antibiotic resistance.",

        "raw_content": "Every year a gazillion tax preparers and tax accountants lock themselves in a room from mid-January until April 15th and push out as many tax returns as they possibly can. Tax returns that show you how much money you owe Uncle Sam or how much he owes you if you\u2019re lucky. Included with your return, in many cases, are vouchers for you to submit on the 15th of April (if you don\u2019t submit it with your tax return), June, September and the following January for estimated taxes that you may owe.\nBut they are just that \u2013 estimates. What happens when you make more money or worse less money than you did the year before? I\u2019ll tell you \u2013 these estimates need to be adjusted.\nThe tax law requires that if you are a sole proprietor or self-employed, a partner in a partnership or limited liability company or a shareholder in a S-corporation, and you expect to owe tax of $1,000 or more, than you must submit estimated tax payments. If you are a corporation that number changes to $500. To complicate things even more, these estimated payments must equal the smaller of 100% of the prior year\u2019s tax or 90% of the current year\u2019s tax to avoid an underpayment penalty.\nYou don\u2019t want to pay taxes let alone penalties and interest.\nEnter tax planning.\nTax planning is the process of analyzing your expected annual income and estimating the amount of taxes you will owe on that income. This process ensures that you do not have any surprises on April 15th. The best way to avoid these unwanted surprises is to look at you financials periodically to make sure that your revenue is in line with what you estimated it to be. If you are tracking to make more money than you originally planned, you have the opportunity to adjust the estimated tax payments accordingly. Don\u2019t wait until it\u2019s too late.\nTags: estimated tax paymentsfinancial managementincome taxes\nPreviousPrevious post:Tax Mistakes Every Business Owner MakesNextNext post:Income You DON\u2019T Pay Taxes On",

He was educated at Eastbourne College and the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth.\nIn 1895 he obtained a scholarship at Merton College, Oxford, from which University he graduated in 1898 with first class honours in chemistry. After two years of research at Oxford he went to Canada and from 1900 to 1902 was Demonstrator in the Chemistry Department of McGill University, Montreal. Here he worked with Professor Sir Ernest Rutherford on problems of radioactivity. Together they published a series of papers on radioactivity and concluded that it was a phenomenon involving atomic disintegration with the formation of new kinds of matter. They also investigated the gaseous emanation of radium.\nLeaving Canada, Soddy then worked with Sir William Ramsay at University College, London where he continued the study of radium emanation. Here, Soddy and Ramsay were able to demonstrate, by spectroscopic means, that the element helium was produced in the radioactive decay of a sample of radium bromide and that helium was evolved in the decay of emanation.\nFrom 1904 to 1914 Soddy was lecturer in physical chemistry and radioactivity in the University of Glasgow. Here he did much practical chemical work on radioactive materials. During this period he evolved the so-called \u201cDisplacement Law\u201d, namely that emission of an alpha-particle from an element causes that element to move back two places in the Periodic Table. His peak was reached in 1913 with his formulation of the concept of isotopes, which stated that certain elements exist in two or more forms which have different atomic weights but which are indistinguishable chemically.\nIn 1914 he was appointed Professor of Chemistry at the University of Aberdeen, but plans for research were hampered by the war. In 1919 he became Dr. Lees Professor of Chemistry at Oxford University, a post he held until 1937 when he retired, on the death of his wife.\nAfter his period at Glasgow he did no further work in radioactivity. His interest changed to economic, social and political theories which gained no general acceptance at the time, and to unusual mathematical and mechanical problems.\nHis books include Radioactivity (1904), The Interpretation of Radium (1909), The Chemistry of the Radioactive Elements (1912-1914), Matter and Energy (1912), Science and Life (1920), The Interpretation of the Atom (1932), The Story of Atomic Energy (1949), and Atomic Transmutation (1953).\nSoddy was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1910 and Oxford awarded him an honorary degree. He was awarded the Albert Medal in 1951.\nHe was a man of strong principles and obstinate views, friendly with students and prickly with colleagues.\nln 1908, he married Winifred Beilby. He died on September 22, 1956 at Brighton.\nMLA style: Frederick Soddy \u2013 Biographical. NobelPrize.org. Nobel Media AB 2019.

So from \u201874 -\u201977, I was doing a lot of session work in New York City. I also recorded my fourth LP in New York during that period.\nWere you already aware of Schoolhouse Rock when you were hired?\nYou know, I don\u2019t really remember. I believe I was. It was 40 years ago. I know I was glad to be on board!\nHow were you hired? Were you hired for all three of your songs at the same time?\nLike I said, I was doing a lot of sessions and one producer would tell another producer about me and that\u2019s how I got hired to sing on various projects. If they were looking for a female vocalist who could learn fast and sing with a lot of muscle in any genre with a large range, they hired me. In answer to your second question, no. I was booked to sing on three separate occasions for the three songs I sang on.\nDid you have any say in which songs you got to sing?\nAs a hired hand, one sings what is put in front of [her]. There is no choice in such a situation. The music is very specific and worked out to go along with a storyboard that becomes the animation. A lot of time and effort goes into planning a recording session. Especially when it\u2019s part of a network TV show. It\u2019s not like people getting together to jam.\nDid you make any suggestions for any of the songs?\nI was given a lot of freedom concerning my vocal approach, but they did, after all, hire me for the way I sing. I added those really high notes at the end of the songs.\nWas any song your favorite to sing?\nDefinitely \u201cSufferin\u2019 \u2018til Suffrage\u201d! The song lent itself to my singing style and the subject matter (women\u2019s right to vote) was something I could get passionate about!\nThey always did a great job!\nAFTRA scale.\nHave you had any fun Schoolhouse Rock moments since (i.e. a reaction when someone you meet discovers you had a role in it)?\nThis happens quite often, though folks are usually more impressed by the fact that I was in Frank Zappa\u2019s band. There is one experience I had with a young girl in the neighborhood. She lives a couple doors down from me and left an invitation in my mailbox to come see her in her school\u2019s presentation of Schoolhouse Rock. It wasn\u2019t easy to break away from all I had on my plate at the time, but I made it a point to be there for my young neighbor\u2019s performance. Sitting in the school auditorium watching these young children perform the songs from Schoolhouse Rock so many decades after we recorded them filled my heart and brought tears to my eyes.\nEverything I\u2019ve always done: writing songs, recording, singing, and playing. Also, I do lots of interviews and I have a book in progress.\nToo many to mention. To list a few: being in the Mothers of Invention [Frank Zappa\u2019s band], getting a top pop hit \u201cChange of Heart\u201d recorded by Cyndi Lauper, having one of my songs \u201cStronger Than the Wind\u201d recorded by Tina Turner, playing in France and Germany, my first time performing in Europe in 2011.\nYet another interview. There\u2019s so much work to do. Can I even find the time. If I got paid for these things, I\u2019d be rich!\nYes. Too many to remember. Never with as many questions as you have.\nSo busy in the present, not a lot of time to look back. Dylan said, \u201cDon\u2019t look back,\u201d but sometimes I have to in order to answer journalists\u2019 questions. Of course, I\u2019m glad to have been a part of Schoolhouse Rock and proud that I could contribute to the education of America just by singing.\nEssra and Bob Dorough 2010\nNext: Lori Lieberman.\nhttp://askessra.com",

        "raw_content": "Turnbull confident Cobblers will climb clear of relegation trouble\nJordan Turnbull in action for Partick Thistle against Hearts in the Scottish Premiership earlier this season\nNew signing Jordan Turnbull believes the Cobblers squad should be \u2018right up the top half\u2019 of the Sky Bet League One table, rather than battling against relegation.\nThe 23-year-old signed on at Sixfields for two-and-a-half years on Thursday, cutting short a season-long loan spell at Scottish Premiership side strugglers Partick Thistle to make the transfer from his parent club Coventry City.\nThe Trowbridge-born central defender has joined a Cobblers team that is currently third bottom in Sky Bet League One, and facing a fight to preserve their league one status.\nBut having spoken to manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink about his plans for the club, and seen for himself the players currently in the Town squad, with more to come, he is confident the team will soon be looking up, rather than down.\nTurnbull was part of the Coventry City team relegated from league one last season, and asked if it was a concern he was joining a team lying so low in the table, he made it clear he is relaxed about that situation.\n\u201cFirst of all you look at where the team is, and you make yourself aware of it, but I am aware of the squad here and know a lot of the players, either personally or by playing against them,\u201d said Turnbull, a former England Under-20 international.\n\u201cYou can see in this squad of players that the ability is there to be right up the top half of the table, so it wasn\u2019t anything I was worried about.\n\u201cI am more excited about the challenge of going out and helping the team.\n\u201cI am 100 per cent sure we can do it (get out of trouble), there are a lot of games left in the season, so there is nothing too much to worry about and hopefully we kick-start that soon.\u201d\nFollowing Coventry\u2019s relegation to league two last season, Turnbull had the chance to activate a clause in his contract that said he could leave the club for free, but he eventually made the loan switch to Partick.\nI am 100 per cent sure we can do it (get out of trouble), there are a lot of games left in the season, so there is nothing too much to worry about and hopefully we kick-start that soon\nCobblers defender Jordan Turnbull\nAnd he says that making that move was simply a case of him playing football at the highest standard he could.\nThe Southampton Academy graduate has played all of his senior football in England at league one level, and he believes the fact he is now back at that standard with the Cobblers justifies his decision to head north of the border in the summer.\nAsked about the clause at the Ricoh Arena, Turnbull said: \u201cIt was something that was put in my contract by my agent, the club agreed it, and it was just something that was there.\n\u201cI could have used it to leave for free, but the way things worked out I had an opportunity to go up to Scotland on loan, and did that.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t worry about too many things, I just wanted to go and play football, which was main thing for me.\n\u201cI have played a lot of games this season, I think I have performed well, and ultimately that has brought me here, so I am happy with that.\n\u201cI am happy with how things have worked out, and now hopefully we can have a successful end to the season.\u201d\nTurnbull became the fifth new Cobblers signing of the January transfer window, and was brought in to bolster the central defensive stocks of the squad, with Aaron Pierre and Leon Barnett currently out with injury.\nHe joins a large squad at Sixfields, with more than 30 players competing for starts, but he believes that is a positive.\n\u201cI know there is a big squad here, with a lot of players and everybody fighting for their place, but I think that is good, and is healthy competition,\u201d said Turnbull, who spent two seasons on loan at Swindown Town from 2014 to 2016\n\u201cIt means everybody has to be at it every day in training to show the manager they deserve their spot in the starting 11 come the weekend.\n\u201cThat is what I intend to do, and started that process in training on Thursday, and we\u2019ll see what happens.\u201d",

        "title": "Partner Who Wrongfully Dissolved Partnership Hit With Whopping 66% Minority Discount | New York Business Divorce",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Partner Who Wrongfully Dissolved Partnership Hit With Whopping 66% Minority Discount\nThe defendant partner\u2019s fateful decision took place in 2006, when he sent his fellow partners a written notice unilaterally electing to dissolve the partnership due to what he described as a \u201cfundamental breakdown in the relationship between and among us as partners.\u201d The other partners quickly responded with a damages lawsuit claiming that he had wrongfully dissolved in violation of the partnership agreement in an effort to force the partnership to buy out his interest at a steep premium. The defendant, arguing that the partnership was at-will and of indefinite duration, denied wrongful dissolution and counterclaimed for his full, pro rata share of the partnership\u2019s value upon dissolution.\nIn a series of interim trial court and appellate rulings in 2008 and 2009 (here, here, and here), the courts agreed with the plaintiffs that the partnership was not at-will and that unilateral dissolution by a partner was not permitted under Partnership Law \u00a7 62 based on the provision in the partnership agreement authorizing voluntary dissolution by majority vote of the partners.\nThe trial court subsequently conducted a nonjury trial on the issue of the damages incurred by the plaintiffs as a result of the wrongful dissolution of the partnership, and the issue of the value of the defendant\u2019s interest in the partnership under Partnership Law \u00a7 69 (2) (c) (II) providing that when the business is continued by the remaining partners, a partner who wrongfully dissolves is entitled to be paid \u201cthe value of his interest in the partnership, less any damages caused to his copartners by the dissolution\u201d but without consideration \u201cof the good-will of the business.\u201d\nNotice that Partnership Law \u00a7 69 uses the term \u201cvalue\u201d and not \u201cfair value,\u201d the latter being the statutory standard of value in dissenting shareholder appraisals and oppressed minority shareholder buy-outs under Sections 623 and 1118 of the Business Corporation Law. \u201cValue\u201d under the Partnership Law has been interpreted as \u201cfair market value\u201d which is the standard commonly used for purposes of matrimonial, estate and gift tax valuation. (Read here my post on the difference between fair value and fair market value.) This distinction became critical in last week\u2019s appellate decision on the issue of minority discount, as explained below.\nAt trial, the parties stipulated that the unadjusted value of the defendant\u2019s total interest in the partnership as of the date of his wrongful dissolution in 2006 was $4.85 million. Each side offered expert testimony on the issue whether the stipulated value included a deductible goodwill component, and whether the defendant\u2019s interest should be discounted for marketability and the defendant\u2019s status as a minority partner.\nThe trial court valued the defendant\u2019s interest at slightly over $857,000 after applying to the stipulated unadjusted value a 15% discount for goodwill, a 35% discount for lack of marketability, and after deducting the plaintiffs\u2019 damages including legal fees. The trial court declined to apply a minority discount, concluding that it was not permitted to do so based upon case law involving valuation of a minority shareholder\u2019s stock in a close corporation under BCL Sections 623 and 1118.\nThe primary issue addressed in last week\u2019s appellate decision, authored by Associate Justice Thomas A. Dickerson, was whether the trial court erred by not applying a minority discount.\nJustice Dickerson\u2019s opinion reveals that, at trial, the plaintiffs\u2019 expert testified that, in determining the fair market value of the defendant\u2019s 3.08% partnership interest, a minority discount should be applied to reflect the lack of control that a minority owner has in the operations of the partnership and that, based on a variety of factors including sales of comparable interests and provisions in the partnership agreement restricting the rights of minority owners, the appropriate minority discount was 66%.\nThe defendant\u2019s expert did not offer any minority discount analysis or computation. As related in Justice Dickerson\u2019s opinion, the expert instead testified that, although a minority discount \u201cwould ordinarily be applied to determine the fair market value of the defendant\u2019s interest, he did not apply a minority discount in his valuation in this case because he \u2018was advised, under the relevant statutes, that a minority discount was not applicable.'\u201d (My interpretation: The defendant\u2019s expert didn\u2019t do the analysis at the direction of the defendant\u2019s lawyers.)\nJustice Dickerson noted that, in declining to apply a minority discount, the trial court cited the Court of Appeals\u2019 1995 decision in Matter of Friedman v Beway Realty Corp. \u2014 a dissenting shareholder appraisal case under BCL \u00a7 623 \u2014 and the Second Department\u2019s 2010 decision in Matter of Murphy v U.S. Dredging Corp. \u2014 an oppressed minority shareholder buy-out proceeding under BCL \u00a7 1118 \u2014 in both of which the courts applied the statutory fair-value standard.\nFriedman is best known for its refusal to allow a minority discount in stock valuation proceedings applying the statutory fair-value standard, reasoning that doing so would violate the principle of equal treatment of all shares of the same class while also incentivizing oppressive majority conduct with the prospect of reaping a windfall from the appraisal process. Murphy followed Friedman (and its forebears including Blake) to the same effect.\nThis is precisely where the critical distinction in the applicable standard of value came into play. As explained by Justice Dickerson:\n[T]he concerns expressed by the Court of Appeals in declining to mandate the imposition of a minority discount in fixing the fair value of a dissenting shareholder\u2019s stock are not implicated here. Unlike Matter of Friedman and Matter of Murphy, this case does not involve a determination of the \u201cfair value\u201d of a dissenting shareholder\u2019s shares pursuant to Business Corporation Law \u00a7\u00a7 623 and 1118, but rather, involves the determination of the \u201cvalue\u201d of the shares of a partner who has wrongfully caused the dissolution of a partnership pursuant to Partnership Law \u00a7 69(2)(c)(II). As the Appellate Division, First Department, has observed, applying a minority discount in the context of valuing a partnership interest \u201cwould not contravene the distinctly corporate statutory proscription (Business Corporation Law \u00a7 501[c]) against treating holders of the same class of stock differently, or undermine the remedial goal of the appraisal statutes to protect shareholders from being forced to sell at unfair values, or inevitably encourage oppressive majority conduct\u201d (Vick v Albert, 47 AD3d 482, 483-84). Moreover, the Court of Appeals\u2019 concern that imposing a minority discount in valuing a dissenting shareholder\u2019s stock would encourage oppressive majority conduct is not relevant here, where the dissolution was caused not by any action on the part of the majority, but rather, was caused by the \u201cwrongful[ ]\u201d conduct of a minority partner (Partnership Law \u00a7 69[2][c][II]).\nJustice Dickerson\u2019s opinion also drew support from a 2004 ruling by the Massachusetts Supreme Court in Anastos v Sable in which that court upheld application of a minority discount to the valuation of the partnership interest of a partner who wrongfully dissolved the partnership under that state\u2019s statute equivalent to New York Partnership Law \u00a7 69. The Anastos decision emphasized that the statute mandates valuation of the partnership as a going concern and not in liquidation. Likewise, Justice Dickerson wrote:\nWe find the reasoning of the [Massachusetts] Supreme Judicial Court to be sound. Here, as in Anastos, the partnership remains a going concern, and the defendant has no right to compel a liquidation sale of the partnership\u2019s shopping mall and receive a proportionate share of the liquidation value of that asset. Under these circumstances, a minority discount may properly be applied to account for the defendant\u2019s lack of control in the partnership as a going concern.\nJustice Dickerson\u2019s opinion provides no details concerning the computation and empirical basis for the 66% minority discount advocated by the plaintiffs\u2019 expert and accepted by the court as \u201ccredible\u201d and \u201csupported by the record.\u201d Other than taking the position that he was \u201cadvised\u201d not to apply a minority discount, I can\u2019t tell from the court\u2019s decision whether the defendant\u2019s appraisal expert challenged as excessive the 66% figure proffered by the plaintiffs\u2019 expert. I\u2019ve seen estimates of unknown reliability of minority discounts in fair market value appraisals generally ranging from 10% to 40%. In the abstract, a 66% minority discount seems beyond the pale, but I can\u2019t fairly say without access to the trial record.\nThe Congel case sounds a clear warning of the potentially drastic, adverse consequences of pulling the plug on a partnership in contravention of a partnership agreement when the other partners continue the business. Contrast Congel with the Vick v Albert case, which is cited in Congel and which I wrote about here, where the court rejected both marketability and minority discounts in valuing the minority interest of a deceased partner under the same fair market value standard applied in Congel.\nUpdate January 16, 2017: The story continues. The Court of Appeals (New York\u2019s highest court) last week granted the former minority partner\u2019s motion for leave to appeal from the Appellate Division\u2019s decision and the amended final judgment which awarded the plaintiffs over $900,000 including a $1.8 million offset against the value of the former partner\u2019s interest for attorney and expert fees as damages. Read here my report on the high court\u2019s grant of leave to appeal.\nTags: Congel, Dickerson, DLOC, goodwill value, Malfitano, marketability discount, minority discount, sale as going concern, Second Department, Vick, wrongful dissolution\nNew York's High Court Takes Fresh Approach to Wrongful Dissolution, Sustains Valuation Discounts, Limits Damages in Partnership Case\nIt would be interesting to see the \u201ccredible evidence\u201d for a minority discount of 66% because such evidence doesn\u2019t exist. Before appraisers began to make a distinction between financial control and strategic control, it was common to use (now known as strategi) control premiums as a basis for inferring the magnitude of minority interest discounts (MID). The equation for determining MID was:\nMID = [1 / (1 + CP) -1]\nAn \u201caverage\u201d control premium of about 40% would yield a MID of about 29% under this formula. To achieve a MID of 66%, the control premium used would have to be a whopping 195%!\nThe minority partner who dissolved the partnership may not have done a good thing, but he is not getting \u201cthe value\u201d based on any concept of fair value or fair market value that I know about. If the court applied the three noted discounts sequentially, the result would have been $911 thousand.\n$4.85mm x (1 \u2013 15% goodwill) x (1 \u2013 35% DLOM) x (1 \u2013 66% MID) = $911m\nThat\u2019s a total discount of 81%! And that\u2019s before the legal fees and other expenses allocated to him by the court. I wouldn\u2019t want to be the appraiser offering this level of discounting for a minority interest in an apparently attractive property. If a 3.08% interest is worth $4.85 million, the entirety was worth $157 million.\nThe total discounting doesn\u2019t appear to be reasonable in light of the above.\nI\u2019d still like to see the \u201ccredible evidence\u201d supporting a 66% minority interest discount. And I\u2019d like to see any test of reasonableness for this conclusion.\nmorning_in_america\nDefinitely appears that since the 66% was the only number offered, that the judge just went with it. The partners\u2019 side blundered by not even calculating a number. Don\u2019t have a chance of winning if you don\u2019t show up, especially if you are determined to be in the wrong in the first place.",

Scenic beauty of the land is the main attraction of West Coast. It is rich in coastlines and mountains and has a beautiful collection of bush. The rain forest adds to the natural attraction of West Coast and of course a heavy rainfall flourishes the land.\nWest coast has industries including coal mining and forestry and processing of woods. Fishing and farming is also developing as advanced industries in West Coast. Tourism in itself is a separate industry growing with rapid pace in West Coast. Out of the farming industries, dairy farming is highly popular. Manufacturing of green stone and jewelry out of it is another popular industrial business occurring in this land. All these industries have attributed to the growth of regional economy from this city, contributing to the wealth of New Zealand.\nFlora and fauna of New Zealand are other major attractions of the land. You can see some rare birds with this land being their habitat. The local people of West Coast are generally known as coasters. This indicates their hospitality and friendly approach they show towards tourists. They have high values like self reliability and loyalty as their identifying characters.\nYou can see the pancake rocks and blow holes which are the famous attractions of West Coast. The beauty of pancakes lies in the thin, horizontal layered appearance with varying thickness. In short, West Coast and its beautiful glaciers creeping to the rain forests have a unique role in the life of New Zealand and its inhabitants.\nWest Coast Region Activities\nThis is an informative and leisurely trip to the dynamic face of the glacier which is suitable for children from 5 years. It is here that the Fox River emerges from the ice and where ice collapses are often heard and seen. This trip is for people with limited time or for those who would find the walks onto the glacier too strenuous. Although you will not walk on the glacier your guide will take you to the final resting place of the ice that has traveled 12 kilometers from the base of the Southern Alps, all the way to the river valley floor. Your guide may take you closer to the ice than the unguided public (if it is safe to do so at the time) and you will have the opportunity to learn the role of the Fox Glacier in shaping its environment.

(John Raoux/AP)\nThe Orlando Magic were able to get their top players on the floor, but they couldn't close out the preseason with a victory.\nThe Magic fell 100-81 to Spurs Friday night at Amway Center.\nEvan Fournier snapped out of his preseason shooting slump, chipping in 23 points for the Magic.\nRookie center Mohamed Bamba and second-year forward Jonathan Isaac both took the floor together during the preseason for the first time. They played limited minutes to avoid adding to injury issues they had during the preseason.\nIsaac scored five points in 20 minutes and Bamba chipped in 15 points in 23 minutes.\nVeteran center Nikola Vucevic, who finished with 14 points, credited the Spurs for their role in forcing the Magic to shoot 37.1 percent from the field and 19.2 percent from 3-point range.\n\u201cI think what happens with the Spurs [is that] they kind of give you some looks that they want so [that] you think that they\u2019re good looks \u2014 you then take them a lot of the times and [they\u2019re] actually kind of like quick shots that don\u2019t really get you into rhythm,\u201d Vucevic said. \u201cI think we just fell for a lot of those. We weren\u2019t patient. They kind of test your patience, they test your offense and they want to make sure that you\u2019re working. They have enough patience offensively.\n\u201cFor us, we took a lot of quick shots and they weren\u2019t necessarily always bad looks, but it just wasn\u2019t the looks that are going to work for you for 48 minutes.\u201d\nThe Magic went 2-3 overall in the preseason, with one victory over an NBA team. Despite limited wins, Vucevic is optimistic about the Magic\u2019s progress.\n\u201cObviously, there\u2019s still some work to do,\u201d he said. \u201cI feel like we had a good preseason and training camp. We had ups and downs during the games and that\u2019s to be expected, but we can be happy with where we\u2019re at compared to where we started.\u201d\nMagic coach Steve Clifford was most concerned with managing minutes, offensive flow, defensive effort and attention to detail during the preseason.\n\u201cI think the best way to look at it is when have we played \u2014 I think it\u2019s really like this to be honest for like the first 20 games: What are you doing when you play well and what\u2019s not happening when you play poorly? So, for us, clearly when we have offensive pace and energy \u2014 this would be most teams \u2014 the ball is hitting the paint before we shoot and we\u2019re getting to the free-throw line. Those have been our best moments,\u201d Clifford said.\n\u201cAnd then defensively, when we run back, which tonight I think we were pretty good, yeah we were great. And when we\u2019re again controlling the ball and controlling cutters, so we\u2019re not having to be in a bunch of rotations, that\u2019s when we\u2019re good so far, too.\n\u201cBut again, it takes a while before you really know like what your team is.\u201d",

This renaissance masterpiece has been recreated detail by detail, color by color to near perfection. It is sure to bring grace to every room. Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi, better known as Sandro Botticelli (c. 1445- 1510), was an Italian painter of the Early Renaissance. He belonged to the Florentine School under the patronage of Lorenzo de' Medici, a movement that Giorgio Vasari would characterize less than a hundred years later as a \"golden age\". Botticelli's posthumous reputation suffered until the late 19th century, since then his work has been seen to represent the linear grace of Early Renaissance painting. Among his best known works are The Birth of Venus and Primavera .\nColor Palette for Portrait of a young woman\nPortrait of a young woman Botticelli Classic 20\" X 24\" $199.00",

        "raw_content": "China Mobile's Q4 profit drops 16 percent on 4G network costs\nChina Mobile's profit rises 0.3 percent\nChina Mobile Third Quarter Profit Rises 3.7 Percent\nChina Mobile posted a rare drop in profit growth for the fourth quarter, as the world\u2019s largest carrier is struggling to fend off the competition from rival carriers, and smartphone messaging apps.\nDuring the period, the company\u2019s net profit reached 30.2 billion yuan (US$4.9 billion), declining 16 percent year-over-year, the company said Thursday.\nRevenue continued to rise, up 10 percent year on year at 167.2 billion yuan.\nWhile China Mobile may have 767 million customers, it faces the difficult task of squeezing more revenue out of its users by signing them up for pricier data services. At the end of last year, only about a quarter of China Mobile\u2019s had subscribed to its faster 3G network, with the remainder on slower network services.\nTo boost earnings, China Mobile is betting on its new 4G network to create more revenue streams. In December, it launched the higher-speed data services, and unveiled dozens of new smartphones made for the network. But in the short-term, construction of its 4G services is raising costs and dragging down profits.\nFor this year, China Mobile\u2019s capital expenditure budget is projected to reach 225.2 billion yuan, up 22 percent from a year ago.\nA bright spot for China Mobile is that it signed a deal with Apple in December to finally sell an iPhone built for its network. Previously, China Mobile was the last remaining mobile carrier in the nation not selling the handset.\nIn addition, the company also broke a record, and sold 150 million handsets built for its 3G network last year. This marked a 180 percent jump from the prior year.\nBut even as more of China Mobile\u2019s customers move to smartphones, the company has to contend with the rise of mobile apps. In particular, are smartphone messaging products that can replace traditional phone calls and SMS texting. Last year, China Mobile\u2019s revenue from voice calls and SMS declined year-over-year by 3.4 percent and 6.5 percent, respectively.",

        "raw_content": "Home NEWS FEATURES VR to Change Theme Parks Every Time You Visit\nA new ride without changing the track\nTheme parks struggle to change. Creating a new ride costs an incredible amount of money when you take into account planning, construction, marketing and a plethora of other costs involved. So most times when you return to a theme park you\u2019ll only find one or two new experiences compared to the last time you visited.\nVirtual reality may be the tool that can change that.\nTheme parks around the world have been embracing virtual reality over the last few years, and now one theme park in the UK has already changed a ride to offer returning visitors a new experience.\nI\u2019ve visited Thorpe Park twice in the last nine months \u2013 once for the opening of Derren Brown\u2019s Ghost Train virtual reality experience and a second time for the new add-on section to the same ride, called Rise of the Demon.\nWhat struck me on my second visit was the way the theme park was able to change the experience without as much investment as creating a new ride altogether.\nCompare this to Oblivion at Alton Towers. It\u2019s a fan favorite but it hasn\u2019t changed since 1998 \u2013 that\u2019s the same experience if you rode it on opening day to today 19 years later.\nJohn Burton, Creative Director of Derren Brown\u2019s Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon, told TechRadar, \u201cWe could keep updating the attraction as much as we like to create that continuous limited time only feel to it.\n\u201cThis in essence is definitely something that attractions like this usually consider, to create that re-ridability factor for a story heavy experience.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s what VR has the potential to do. Imagine a rollercoaster that never dates. Each time you return to it, you\u2019ll have an entirely different experience with a new story and a new look.\nRise of the Demon doesn\u2019t change the virtual reality experience that drastically \u2013 in fact there are only a few tweaks compared to the original Ghost Train \u2013 but that\u2019s something the team is considering for the future. It makes sense: the more they tweak it, the more people will come back and try the experience again.\nVR, if used in this way, is also a rather inexpensive way of keeping franchises current. Saw \u2013 The Ride is a more traditional rollercoaster at Thorpe Park. It opened in 2009 and is based around the popular horror franchise, which ended in 2010.\nEntering into the experience now, seven years after the last film, it doesn\u2019t feel anywhere near as terrifying if you\u2019ve experienced it before. One of the reasons for this, is that it feels heavily dated.\nConsidering the rollercoaster cost Merlin \u00a313.5 million to create, it probably won\u2019t be changed much anytime soon.\nBut if Thorpe Park had virtual reality headsets on this ride, the theme could be changed to whatever\u2019s popular at the time and make the dated experience a little fresher each time you return to it.\nIt\u2019s not an easy task to change a virtual reality experience, though, but it\u2019s easier than replanting a rollercoaster entirely.\nOn Rise of the Demon, Burton said, \u201cThe biggest challenge for us was delivering our idea of having other guests sitting on the train with you in your VR. They were of course actors which had to be wearing the VR mask whilst reacting to the events which unfold in front of you.\nA CGI render of the carriage used for Derren Brown\u2019s Ghost Train\n\u201cThe difficulty was that the actors had a blank screen and as we filmed the attraction with a 360 camera, the crew could not be in the carriage with them. Therefore we used secret agent like ear pieces hidden within the VR masks to talk them through the \u2018events\u2019 that are unfolding which they had to respond naturally towards.\u201d\nBrown\u2019s Ghost Train is trying to differ your experiences each time you ride and encourage you to return to the park. Slight changes are designed to give you a different experience to the person you\u2019re riding with and according to Derren Brown himself, \u201cquestion your reality\u201d.\n\u201cOne bonus already to our attraction is you may begin to questions your own perceptions and memories as not everyone you travel with will encounter the same characters on their journey,\u201d said Burton.\nGhost Train doesn\u2019t do much with this experience by instead tweaking characters and experiences within the same universe.\nBut imagine if you could sit next to someone and have an entirely different ride. You could be riding in a mining cart while the person next to you is on a space adventure.\nAlton Towers \u2013 owned by the same folks that run Thorpe Park \u2013 is already using VR for Galactica. Formerly Air, it\u2019s re-invented the ride with VR and an interactive space scenario. Everyone on that ride \u2013 and we\u2019ve tried it \u2013 was wearing VR headsets. There\u2019s no reason a different adventure couldn\u2019t be piped to each person.\nVirtual reality is fantastic for theme parks. For many, it will be their first experience of technology. While it\u2019s still in an embryonic stage, virtual reality in theme parks may not just be a gimmick you try once, but may in fact encourage you to return time and time again.\nPrevious articleIBM Invent \u2018in-memory\u2019 Computing Architecture \u2013 200 Times Faster\nNext articleSNES Classic Tugs At Our Nostalgia Strings",

        "raw_content": "FAQ - Bleeding\nChildren are very prone to accidents involving the mouth and lips, especially the little ones who are learning to walk, or older children who play sports or skateboard. Any injury to the oral area can result in bleeding around the gums and teeth.\nIf you notice bleeding around a damaged tooth and the tooth is not very loose, you can monitor your child at home. Keep your child on a soft diet for a few days to prevent further damage to the teeth and soft tissues. The bleeding should stop shortly, and the tooth should tighten over time.\nA traumatized tooth may darken over time. This just means that red blood cells have been forced into the hard part of the tooth from the blood vessels in the nerve (pulp) tissue. A traumatized baby tooth may change into an array of colors, from pink to dark gray. This color change does not necessarily mean that the tooth needs to be removed. It only means that the tooth has suffered some type of trauma and needs to be watched closely. Sometimes, a traumatized tooth will need subsequent removal weeks or months after the trauma. Signs to watch for include complaints of dental pain, seeing an abscess or bubble on the gums above or below the traumatized teeth, constant fidgeting with, touching, or avoiding the tooth in very young children. In any of these cases, please call our office to schedule an appointment.\nIf you notice bleeding in the gums or other areas of the mouth, use a soft towel to apply pressure to stop the bleeding. Cuts in the mouth can bleed a lot, but should stop within a few minutes with gentle pressure on the area. If the bleeding continues and doesn't stop with 10-15 minutes of gentle pressure, you may have to take your child to the emergency room to check for any possible bleeding disorders.\nYou may give your child Children's Tylenol (Acetaminophen) or Children's Motrin/Advil (Ibuprofen) to relieve pain and use ice compresses over swollen areas. Neosporin can be used to prevent infection for any external cuts or scratches. Keep your child on a soft diet for a few days to prevent further damage. Call our office if you have any other questions or if symptoms get worse.",

        "raw_content": "Supporter blog: Si\u00e2n Evans in Dharamsala\nKunsel and Emman meet their Pestalozzi host parents Si\u00e2n and Andy for the first time in 2009.\nEmman and Kunsel - Pestalozzi host brothers.\n'Four Seasons' vases, by coppersmith Si\u00e2n Evans.\nSi\u00e2n's arrival in Dharamsala.\nBeautiful view of the Norbulingka Institute.\nNorbulingka temple.\nSi\u00e2n visited many coppersmith workshops during her research visit to India.\nSi\u00e2n was able to meet her Pestalozzi host student Tenzin Kunsel's parents in Dharamsala.\nTenzin Kunsel with His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.\nTenzin Kunsel's family with His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.\nTenzin Kunsel was a Pestalozzi student from 2008 to 2010. Last year, his Pestalozzi host parent, coppersmith Si\u00e2n Evans, was fortunate enough to visit Dharamsala as part of her own studies, where she met Kunsel\u2019s parents and learned more about his world.\nAbout five years ago a friend of ours, who was working at Pestalozzi, approached me and asked if we would like to become a host family to two students \u2013 Emman (from Zambia) and Kunsel (a Tibetan from India). At the moment we agreed, it would have been impossible to predict the chain of events that would eventually lead to me visiting Dharamsala in the Himalayas and sharing lunch with Kunsel\u2019s parents.\nThe idea behind setting up host families was to form friendship links. Whilst the young people who receive Pestalozzi scholarships learn a lot about the cultures of their peers, there is danger that they can come away with little idea about British life. By becoming a host family, we were able to invite our two students to our home and tell them about our lives. We also had the great pleasure of seeing them graduate from their IB courses at a celebration in the summer of 2010. In turn, we all gained valuable insights into the countries from which our students came. I am pleased to say that we grew very fond of them both and stayed in touch after they left Pestalozzi. Emman went on to study in America, while Kunsel studied at Jacobs University in Bremen until his graduation in 2013. He's now doing a Masters at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands.\nThe story of how I came to find myself in Northern India begins in a different place.\nI am a coppersmith by trade \u2013 an unusual occupation that started when master craftsman Sam Fanaroff took me on as a student in the early 1990s. My placement was to turn into a proper apprenticeship, and after several years away from the forge raising my children, I returned to my craft in 2004 with a QEST scholarship. As the years have gone by I have aspired to hone and practice my craft, but as coppersmithing is a rarity in our country, I have had difficulty acquiring new knowledge. In 2011 I was fortunate enough to win a Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship, which funded research trips to France and Athens, then finally to India. I had been told of the extraordinary copperwork produced by the Tibetan community in Himachal Pradesh, and so when I found I had not used all my grant money for the European trip, I was able to add Dharamshala to my Indian itinerary.\nTo begin with I arranged to stay for two nights at Norling Guesthouse in the Norbulingka Institute \u2013 a centre dedicated to preserving traditional Tibetan culture and craftsmanship and founded in 1988 under the leadership of Dalai Lama. From the moment one arrives at the Institute one is greeted by exquisite decoration \u2013 from beautiful murals on walls to finely painted furniture. The metal workshops were of course what I had most hoped to see. Although quiet during my stay \u2013 partly because of the extensive snowfall of the previous fortnight and partly because of the school holidays \u2013 eight or so metalsmiths were still working on tiny devotional repouss\u00e9 statues and were most forthcoming when I asked them about their work and their lives. Thanks to what I had learnt from Kunsel \u2013 and my subsequent membership of the Tibet Society, I felt able to have some very meaningful conversations with these men, about their lives and work.\nAfter two days I moved on to stay in McLeod Ganj at Chonor House, a hotel also owned by Norbulingka Institute and similarly beautifully decorated. I had remembered that Kunsel\u2019s home was nearby and so I emailed him in Germany to ask if his parents would like to meet me.\nI am delighted to say that the following day Kunsel's parents called for me and we went together on the walk they do twice a day around Dalai Lama\u2019s own temple.\nThey showed me how to rotate the prayer wheels outside, explained about the exiled Tibetan government and shared the story of their own lives, specifically about the circumstances which led to them leaving Tibet in 1961. They made me feel very welcome indeed. In return I was able to tell them about how very fond we were of their son and about his life in England during his time at Pestalozzi.\nThe following day I was invited back to their home for lunch and enjoyed momos whilst we shared stories about our various sons and daughters. As in every family home, there were pictures of all the children on the walls \u2013 all five of whom had achieved considerable academic success.\nBeing a refugee in India means that one cannot own property or a business and so the prospects that come with a good quality education cannot be underestimated.\nAll the children\u2019s certificates were proudly framed \u2013 doctorates and masters amongst them, and I had to smile when I spotted a Hastings half-marathon medal added to the end of the row by Kunsel. The miles between us suddenly seemed very small at the sight of something with my hometown\u2019s name on it \u2013 halfway up the Himalayas!\nWhen it was time to go, I thanked them profusely, whereupon Sonam, Kunsel\u2019s father, stood up and said some words in Tibetan, which his wife translated as a formal thank you for being family to his son for two years in England. He then put a white silk around my neck, took out his prayer beads and chanted quietly before touching his forehead on mine. He presented me with a box of incense, thanked me again and saw me to the door. I was so profoundly moved by this gesture I was almost shocked, and I left their home with an extraordinary sense of peace.\nIn true Buddhist style I realised another circle had been completed.\nAs a postscript to this meeting, which took place almost two years ago, I was delighted to learn that Kunsel's family was granted an audience with Dalai Lama this August. The first image here shows Kunsel receiving his blessing and the second shows Kunsel second from the left with his family. He is the youngest of five children, all of whom have achieved extraordinary things, but Kunsel is the only Pestalozzi graduate.\nThe Pestalozzi family reaches all around the world.

Photograph: Hong Menea/Phnom Penh Post\nIt began with a vision of curbing illegal gambling and donating money back to the community. It ended, within months, because Cambodians just weren\u2019t interested.\nNagaLottery\u2019s $1-a-ticket lucky number draw, launched to a crowd of thousands at a concert outside the sumptuous NagaWorld Casino in June, had officially folded after just three draws, an employee of NagaCorp who did not want to be named said yesterday.\n\u201c[NagaLottery] stopped the product,\u201d the employee said, ending speculation about the much-hyped lottery, which has been inactive since August. \u201c[It has been] stopped because it is not popular.\u201d\nAlong with the extravagant concert, organisers decked out a room on the ground floor of the casino, showcasing the draw to patrons, and an advertising campaign promised players the chance to win individual cash prizes of up to $218,000.\nMore than 15,000 prizes were promised for each draw.\nA hallmark of the promotion was the promise that 30 per cent of profit from the lottery would be shared by the Cambodian Red Cross, the national police and the Preah Vihear military command.\nBut Men Neary Sopheak, deputy secretary general of the Cambodian Red Cross, said yesterday the organisation \u2013 headed by Prime Minister Hun Sen\u2019s wife Bun Rany \u2013 had yet to receive a single dollar from the lottery.\n\u201cWe have not yet received any donation, and we do not know when they plan to make this offering,\u201d she said.\nPhotographs of NagaLottery winners being presented with irons, rice cookers and mobile phones have been displayed on the company\u2019s Facebook page, but it is unclear whether anyone ever won the $218,000 major prize in any of the three draws or, for that matter, if the company profited from the venture.\nMelanie Loong, marketing and communications manager at NagaLottery, would not confirm whether any major prizes had been won.\n\u201cThose pictures shown are winners from the non-winning ticket draw,\u201d she said.\nThe company would not provide information relating to profit and loss or say whether donations had been made to advertised recipients, because it was private and confidential, she added.\nWhile Loong did not provide reasons for the lottery\u2019s premature end, she said the lottery world was a \u201cvery dynamic industry\u201d and NagaLottery was evolving to keep up with players\u2019 demands.\nThe company intends to launch a new game soon, its website says. The Post has been told this will be a scratch-and-win-style game, but Loong said she was not in a position to comment on this.\n\u201cInformation and details on the new game will be released at the appropriate time.\u201d\nA shopkeeper in the Tonle Bassac commune of the capital\u2019s Chamkarmon district still displays signs for the NagaLottery on a counter at the front of her store.\n\u201cWe sold about 100 tickets for the first draw,\u201d she said yesterday. \u201cIt was much less for the second and third draws.\n\u201cMy buyers hoped they would win the lottery, because it was offering a lot of prizes. About 10 people came back after winning about $10 each.\u201d\nChrun Theravath, chief of casino management at the Ministry of Economy and Finance, which approved NagaLottery, and spokesmen from the National Police and Preah Vihear military command could not be reached yesterday.\nTo contact the reporter on this story: Shane Worrell at [email protected]\nContact authors: Shane Worrell and Mom Kunthear",

        "raw_content": "Full content vs full capability - the wrinkle in airline distribution\nBy Timothy O'Neil-Dunne | February 14, 2011\nMuch has been written about \"full content\" being the way that GDSs control their relationships with the airlines.\nBut is there a dark side to this - that full content contracts actually harm many different players because the GDSs don\u2019t have the ability to provide full content capability, the ability to correctly and fully display the content that in essence they have exclusivity to?\nWhile there is a lot of noise about the airlines not providing their content equally to the GDSs, this could be a smoke screen for a far worse sin: the legacy GDSs do not display the content fully and fairly.\nToday, GDSs and airlines enter into agreeements via a common contract form. This is called the PCA (Participating Carrier Agreement).\nThe basic essence of the full content portion of the contract is that the airline agrees to provide the same content via a GDS as it does down any other channel, including its own \u2013 such as its website or call centre.\nIn return for this great deal, the GDS gives the airline a \"deal\" on its rates.\nAs the debate over the airlines and the GDSs rages far and wide, it has become clear that this agreement is perhaps one-sided.\nMost airlines \u2013 and, indeed, regulators and the general public - have assumed until now the GDS is actually doing a good job of providing access to its content.\nSo the airline is carrying out its part of the agreement. However the question of whether the GDS is doing its side is emerging.\nAllow me to be specific.\nIf the GDS has signed full content agreements with all airlines available, then the GDS is by law required to display all information fairly and equally (however, not in the USA, as there is no regulation requiring this).\nThe theory has been that the GDS is the arbiter of what is possible and what is not possible, therefore the GDS treats all airlines equally.\nSo if the algorithms built into the GDS have a flaw, all airlines are treated in the same way, equally badly.\nActually, this is not the case. The inadequacy of the technology discriminates against consumers and airlines.\nIn a neutral display, the airlines see their products shown in a results screen equally. Fine if you are a non-stop or a direct airline. But what about the connections?\nActually the GDS is discriminating against ANY airline which has more than a double connection (actually three flight segments).\nFor example, Emirates offers a wide number of connections including double connections in Australia on the way to, say, New Zealand.\nFurthermore the GDS cuts off the total number of available choices at a certain number of lines and also will not display all fares.\nThis is a technical limitation of the mainframe systems on which GDSs are based. Thus, if your airline is below the threshold of the possible choices as determined by the GDS then you are SOL \u2013 sorry, out of luck.\nWho is the loser in this? Actually, just about everyone - the airline which has been disadvantaged and the consumer.\nThe consumer is denied full choice; the airline is denied the ability to sell fairly with other airlines. For the smaller carriers this is bad. The bigger airlines don\u2019t need to worry quite so much.\nFor those airlines which in international markets have complex itinerary options, the GDSs fail to display certain results (such as the example I raised above) in any form of search.\nI would even challenge that in some cases that the GDSs will NEVER return certain viable results for some airlines and their products.\nSadly the airlines who are affected tend to be so fearful of the GDSs that they keep quiet for fear of retribution.\nIn the cases of the use of complex fares, GDSs can never return a result in search. Just try to go from Northern Europe secondary cities to Australasian secondary markets. The PCAs tend to be very one-sided in this respect. Up until now, technology did not exist that could prove otherwise.\nFor those of us who have been working in fares for a long time, we have just accepted the legacy restrictions with a shrug.\nBut now we can see that new fare tools such as those from ITA Software and Everbread have far better search mechanisms than the GDSs.\nThe tools result in better options - and more of them - for the consumer. The tools enable a good travel agent to be a better travel agent, for example.\nAnd, of course, these are online tools to find options that previously just were not possible.\nThis is clearly a value that Google has seen and one of the reasons why it wants to get its hands on hot property ITA.\nSo where does this put the full content agreements that the GDSs sign with airlines, especially now - as shown above - the results are somewhat confusing?\nThese new search and shopping tools show that the consumer can have access to better possible results - consumers can now see which choices are possible far better than the legacy tools of the traditional GDSs can provide.\nThe search and shopping process is very important. But the fact that the GDSs strong armed the airlines and restrained the use of advanced search tools for so long is now clear.\nThe advances in search that Google (and others I hasten to add) have brought to the general consumer market have been denied to consumers of airline products.\nTo demonstrate, one only has to look at what percentage of search in airline tickets starts at a search Engine (eg. Google) vs starts at a metasearch or online travle agency.\nThis situation should not be allowed to continue unchecked, but the legacy GDSs and their allies are obfuscating the issue by focusing on the source of the content rather than the presentation/manipulation of the content - which, to me, is a far bigger issue.\nWhy? Because the setting of pricing is the result. We must remember that the airline ticket is one of the very few products available anywhere, where the creation and price setting of the product is determined by downstream intermediaries.\nFor this reason it is an unusual case and, yes, deserved of a full not partial analysis of the impact to the consumer and the competitive situation in the market.\nNB: Disclosure \u2013 O\u2019Neil-Dunne is CTO and deputy CEO of Lute Technologies, which is a partner of Farelogix.",

Officials say people should check their sheets, socks, and shoes if they suspect there are scorpions near their home...\nTucson Congresswoman Gabrielle Gifford's office was vandalized early Monday morning. Gifford, who voted \"yes\" on the healthcare reform legislation, says someone kicked out or shot out the front glass door of her office.

Temporary agreements have been passed while conversations continued. In June, the commissioners rejected a proposed contract, citing budget concerns.\n\u201cHe (Scioto County Sheriff Marty Donini) was asking for a 93 cent raise on the hour for each employee in the first year of the agreement. That was going to be an across the board increase,\u201d Commissioner Bryan Davis said follwoing the rejection in June.\nDavis said the commissioners ran the numbers with Scioto County Auditor David Green and agreed the proposal was more than what could be absorbed by the county budget. He said the commissioners agree they have to stay within their budget forecasts.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t spend money you don\u2019t have, and the bottom line is: we have to watch this (budget) and watch it close we have to take care of the people\u2019s money,\u201d Davis said. \u201cWe appreciate our law enforcement and we think they are great workers. They are hitting the pavement everyday protecting us as citizens, but we also have to watch the bottom line.\u201d\nMembers of the Fraternal Order of Police/Ohio Labor Council met on June 21, 2015, and accepted a contract that factored a 3.1 percent pay increase. This was the same contract the commissioners approved. The contract is retroactive to the beginning of 2015 and will run through 2017.\nHi!

This can include failure to warn of the dog\u2019s dangerous traits, failing to restrain a dangerous dog, or engaging in conduct likely to excite the dog causing him to knock down, or injure, someone.

        "raw_content": "Another View: Romney\u2019s shift on abortion shows his strength as a leader\nAn official who is willing to change his mind is what the country needs most right now.\nBy LAURENT SENECHAL\nDec. 1 will go down as a very special day. It was the day that The Press Herald published a defense of Mitt Romney\u2019s change from pro-choice to pro-life.\nKathleen Parker\u2019s commentary does an excellent job of detailing what brought this about (\u201cDig deeper before concluding Romney\u2019s \u2018flip-flops\u2019 are all political\u201d). It shows the depth Mitt Romney is willing to go to, in order to better understand the long-term effect of public behavior on our family life and civilization as a whole.\nBoth he and his wife, Ann, have always been pro-life personally, based on a story about them in the Dec. 4 Parade Magazine (\u201cA Mitt Romney You Haven\u2019t Seen Yet\u201d).\nHowever, when trying to resolve the issue as governor of Massachusetts, he called for advice from William Hurlbut, a physician and a professor of biomedical ethics at Stanford University Medical School. The upshot of their meeting was that Romney changed from supporting pro-choice to pro-life as a matter of public policy.\nThe change came as a result of listening to Hurlbut\u2019s presentation of arguments that pro-choice would lead to further deterioration of family life and our civilization as a consequence.\nRomney understood the points made, hence the so-called \u201cflip-flop.\u201d\nIt is Mitt Romney\u2019s habit to call upon the best minds on the subject to be resolved, according to the Parade profile. That seems to be a far better approach to our problems than the current push toward socialism as advocated by the current occupier of the White House.\nThe examples set by Europe are so far disastrous. Our 200-year history shows better results. Therefore, though we\u2019ve undergone ups and downs, our system deserves a leader who understands how it works. Mitt Romney is the better choice.\nLaurent Senechal is a resident of Westbrook.",

        "title": "Dana Milbank: Even populist Democrats can't buck dependence on rich people's cash - Portland Press Herald",
        "raw_content": "Dana Milbank: Even populist Democrats can\u2019t buck dependence on rich people\u2019s cash\nSupreme Court rulings like Citizens United and McCutcheon have made small donors less relevant.\nElizabeth Warren was doing Tuesday what Elizabeth Warren usually does: Sticking up for the little guy.\nThe populist Democratic senator from Massachusetts was in the Dirksen Senate Office Building, hosting an event to push Wal-Mart to raise wages and improve working conditions.\n\u201cNo one in this country should work full time and still live in poverty,\u201d she said, wearing a green wristband to show solidarity with Wal-Mart workers. \u201cToday a person can work full time, and a momma and a baby on a full-time minimum job cannot keep themselves out of poverty \u2013 and that\u2019s wrong.\u201d\nA few hours earlier, Warren, joined by Democratic U.S. Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, fired off letters to 16 financial institutions demanding more information about how they\u2019re protecting consumers from fraud and identity theft. Later in the day, she cast her vote against the oil-and-gas interests backing the Keystone XL pipeline.\nThis would seem to be Warren\u2019s moment. Exit polls in the midterm elections showed that 63 percent of voters thought the economy favors the wealthy, while only 32 percent said the economy is fair to most Americans. Harry Reid, the Senate Democratic leader, has made a leadership position for Warren. Presidential rumors persist, though she shows no signs of running.\nWarren\u2019s populism is appealing \u2013 not fiery or vengeful but compassionate and grounded in fairness. She also has the virtue of being correct: People don\u2019t feel improvement in the economy because the gains haven\u2019t been shared evenly; income inequality has widened; and wages haven\u2019t increased along with stock prices and corporate profits.\nYet there\u2019s a limit to how far Warren, and the Democrats, can go with their little-guy theme, for one simple reason: They can\u2019t afford it.\nMore than ever in America, elections are purchased, not won. And that money comes from corporate and wealthy interests. Run against corporations and you lose that money \u2013 and the election.\nThe Center for Responsive Politics estimates that $3.73 billion was spent in the 2014 midterms. The vast majority of that money comes from a small group; only 0.28 percent of the population contributed more than $200. Donations from business-related interests account for about 70 percent of the total \u2013 and Democrats are nearly as dependent on that cash, taking in 41 percent to the Republicans\u2019 58 percent.\nPresident Obama showed that it\u2019s possible to build a candidacy on small-dollar contributions, getting about one-third of his haul from contributions under $200 in 2012. But Warren, or any other Democrat, probably won\u2019t be able to duplicate that because the Supreme Court has changed the rules of the game, making small contributors less relevant.\nThe 2014 McCutcheon ruling struck down limits on the aggregate amount a wealthy donor could give to candidates, parties and political action committees. In addition, the wealthy are finding more ways to exploit the 2010 Citizens United ruling and other campaign-finance decisions that give super PACs and unregulated \u201cdark money\u201d even more influence, further diluting the power of low-dollar contributions.\nThis has left Democrats dependent on rich people\u2019s cash; in 2014 they fully embraced super PACs and brazenly emphasized big-dollar contributions. Though campaign-finance law makes this dependency necessary, it undermines any populist theme. As The Washington Post\u2019s Matea Gold noted last week, Democrats failed in their attempt to make the conservative Koch brothers an issue in 2014, discovering \u201chow hard it is to move voters who view both parties as captives of wealthy patrons.\u201d\nThat leaves Democrats in a weak position to make a credible appeal to the little guy, which is unfortunate because Warren does it so well.\n\u201cI\u2019m particularly glad to be here with Cantare and Evelin,\u201d she told the Wal-Mart gathering, referring to two of the chain\u2019s employees in the room, \u201cbecause it is good to hear workers\u2019 voices in the halls of Congress.\u201d Her pitch was for a minimum-wage increase to $10.10 an hour, a measure to help women earn equal pay and legislation giving workers more control over work schedules.\n\u201cFor me, this is deeply personal,\u201d Warren said.

        "title": "Commentary: Instead of fee on efficient vehicles, Maine should overhaul highway funding system - Portland Press Herald",
        "raw_content": "Commentary: Instead of fee on efficient vehicles, Maine should overhaul highway funding system\nThe annual surcharge idea is flawed in numerous ways. How about charging based on vehicle miles traveled?\nBy Nicholas John and Josiah NeeleySpecial to the Press Herald\nThe light hum of hybrid vehicles that has become synonymous with New England in recent years may soon be less audible as a result of L.D. 1806, a hybrid vehicle tax proposal from the administration of Republican Gov. Paul LePage. Under the measure, the Maine Department of Transportation would collect an annual registration fee on the highly efficient vehicles in the amount of $150 for gas-electric hybrid cars and $250 for all-electric models. While billed as a way to achieve tax parity with gasoline vehicles and give the state\u2019s crumbling infrastructure a cash infusion, the proposal would in fact punish drivers for choosing more-efficient vehicles.\nThe logic behind imposing a fee on electric vehicles is straightforward. As Meghan Russo, manager of legislative services for MDOT, puts it, \u201cThe idea is that the owners of these types of vehicles are paying far less in the gas tax than other vehicle owners, and they are using the highway system just like any others.\u201d There are also concerns that, as more people switch to electric vehicles, gas tax revenue may not be enough to meet road infrastructure funding needs. The recent Infrastructure Report Card from the American Society of Civil Engineers gave Pine Tree State roads an overall D rating.\nNicholas John is the Northeast region manager and Josiah Neeley is the federal energy policy director for the R Street Institute, a nonprofit Washington think tank that promotes free markets and limited, effective government.\nBut while proponents of the fee have identified a real problem with the current funding system, their proposed solution is lacking. For one thing, the amount of the fee exceeds what is necessary to achieve parity with gasoline vehicles. According to Andrea Maker, a lobbyist for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, Maine residents pay about $82 in gas tax annually. \u201cThe most the state should reasonably charge is $80 a year,\u201d she said at the public hearing on L.D. 1806.\nAccording to 2015 data from the U.S. Department of Energy\u2019s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, nine other states assess annual fees on hybrid and all-electric vehicles. If the Maine proposal takes effect, it would rank near the top of the list for highest fees.\nAn electric vehicle-specific fee also overlooks the fact that it\u2019s not just electrics and hybrids that pay less in tax. Gasoline vehicles, too, are becoming more fuel-efficient. That\u2019s a good thing, but it means that some people are paying less now to drive on Maine\u2019s roads than they would have in years past. Differences in fuel efficiency mean that a gas tax will always charge some types of vehicles more than others, even when they put the same wear and tear on the road.\nRather than trying to patch its flawed gas tax, Maine should look at ways to overhaul its funding system altogether. Luckily, a variety of alternate funding mechanisms are available that could put road funding on a sustainable path without punishing fuel-efficient vehicles. For example, instead of using an indirect measure of road use, like gasoline consumption, Maine could charge based on vehicle miles traveled. In a more sophisticated system, charges could be adjusted based on the weight of the vehicle \u2013 since heavier vehicles do more damage to the roads \u2013 or the type of roads driven on. Versions of this approach have already been successfully adopted in states like Oregon.\nA study by the National Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing Commission concluded that charging drivers based on vehicle miles traveled is the most viable long-term option for funding road maintenance because it ties the amount of the charge to the cost of using the roads. As a result, a vehicle-miles-traveled system provides a more stable model for funding roads while encouraging efficient road usage.\nInstead of selectively imposing new taxes on clean-driving vehicles, Maine should look for ways to make its system fairer and more sustainable over the long term.\ncommentary, taxes",

        "raw_content": "We have covered what it takes to build a home in New Zealand and we briefly mentioned that a lot of the process consists of obtaining the right building consents from your local council. If you are just starting out or considering building a new home, or addition to an already built home, here are some basics to get you started.\nWhen building a home or making additions to your property it is crucial to get the right consents before you build, many people are surprised to find what actually falls under the criteria of getting a building consent, and if one is not obtained the council is within its rights to tear the structure down. These can be for homes, garages, sleep outs, pools, decks, to even treehouses. it\u2019s always worth double checking the council website to see what and if you need consent, to avoid fines and loss of money.\nSome builders will obtain or help you through the consent processes, if you are building yourself it will be slightly harder as it becomes your sole responsibility. There are a handful of things to consider when building including trees, stormwater drains, natural hazards, and if the property will hinder other existing properties. Finding out what activities are allowed in your property zone will help answer many of these questions.\nOnce you have done the research and applied it can take up to twenty days to get a response, so be sure to plan well ahead of time, depending on your application and project, you may need to apply for building consent, resource consent, or both. A call or appointment with your local council can be a major helping hand in this process, finding out what\u2019s involved in approving your consent can save you valuable time and money.\nThe Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) website has valuable information about getting professional help to prepare your resource consent application.\nDuring and after the building process you will undergo a series of inspections that will need to be booked in advance to make sure that your project doesn\u2019t get affected, this is where an experienced planner can come in handy. You need to start building your work within twelve months of receiving your building consent and have two years to complete the work once the consent is granted.\nThis can all seem like a lot of paperwork and double checking, but at the end of the day it is your money, time and energy going into the build, and if you are planning to live on the property, you want to make sure it\u2019s a safe and maintainable place to invest in. check out the Auckland City Council\u2019s Website for more information on building and consents.",

        "raw_content": "We are living in an era of rapid technology changes. New frameworks and programming concepts are being developed to improve the productivity of the coders and at the same time reduce complexity and clutter. In order to thrive in this era we as programmers have to continuously renew our skills to stay relevant. However, the challenge is how we can effectively support our learning after fulfilling our professional and personal commitments?\nAccording to my experience of working as a developer as well as a team lead for more than 12 years, we generally tend to spend more time in our full time job due to lack of proper skillset necessary to do the work efficiently. Having exposure to proper tool sets, frameworks and scripting languages can reduce our efforts to a great extent. However, in order to do that we have to embrace continuous learning. This is not an option anymore, this is a must to advance your career. As Benjamin Franklin said \u201cAn investment in knowledge pays the best interest\u201d.\nIn this article I will share a few ideas I have benefitted from in learning new technologies quickly.\nWhen all your efforts are focused on a single subject, you can achieve tremendous feats. However, getting focused is not so easy unless there is a deep purpose to achieve some goal. This is because, if you know why you are doing something you can always figure out how to do that. Same principle applies to learning as well. If you just google for the best books on a topic, purchase them and start reading cover to cover, you will get bored quickly. So, you will probably give up after a few days and also will forget whatever you have read pretty quickly.\nTherefore, I always start with a side project that interests me. Whenever I have any new idea, I note that down in Evernote account in my mobile as a side project so that I don\u2019t lose the idea. This is not necessary that your project has to be unique. You can start with simple applications like a To Do list or personal expense tracker. However, you have to implement something concrete that will solve some real problem. That will give you a sense of purpose, the WHY.\nOnce you have selected a side project, you have to find out how the topic you are learning will be able to help you build the application. You may develop a mobile app or a web application on the cloud connected to a database. You may even develop a desktop application if that is the area you want to learn. It can also be a part of an existing application that can be improved with new frameworks or programming techniques.\nFirst get an overview of the topic by going through the contents of at least two to three popular books on that topic in Amazon. Try to get an idea of what you can accomplish using that language, tool or framework. You don\u2019t need to learn HOW at this moment. Now do some basic design and start coding straight away. Keep the books and other online resources (API documentation etc.) open so that you can always refer to them when required. When you need to use any particular feature, go deep to learn in more detail.\nLearning in this way will keep you engaged and you will remember more what you have learned without any conscious effort. You will save a lot of time as you are only focusing on what is necessary. Famous 80/20 principle is applicable for learning as well. 20% of the information present in any book or tutorial will enable you to accomplish 80% of the work you will need in a real project. If you encounter something you don\u2019t know you can always refer to the documentation. Another advantage is that your confidence level will be much higher as you have actually created something real with your knowledge.\nThat\u2019s all for now. I have benefitted a lot from this learning approach. Please let me know your views in comments section. Also let me know if some other approach has helped you in your career. Stay tuned for more programming insights.\n4 Best Online Learning Platforms for Software Developers \u2192",

With the vision statement \u2018More digital \u2013 Greater visibility \u2013 Better navigation\u2019, the library had the aspiration to incorporate more Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions into its Integrated Library System (ILS).\nHaving built a solid and trusted relationship with ProQuest over many years, the library looked to them to assist in delivering a transformational library services platform, which was able to integrate with its existing discovery, linking and management tools. The brand new Intota\u2122 platform was the perfect solution to address the library\u2019s needs.\nThe State and University Library already use the Summon\u00ae Service and 360 Link for their students discovery needs, and Intota will enhance this to provide an unprecedented discovery service which enables easy, efficient and unbiased access to the library\u2019s collection. Intota also builds on the university\u2019s existing use of ProQuest\u2019s 360 Resource Manager, making acquisitions and licensing workflows for electronic resources simple, easy and fully integrated with the discovery layer. The Intota platform integrates with the library\u2019s existing system, which provides easy implementation without enduring the challenging and lengthy timescales for migrations.\nVibeke Christensen, Licensadministrator at Statsbiblioteket said, \u201cAdding Intota to our suite of ProQuest workflows products is a natural step in our long term relationship with the company. We are looking forward to learning how it will improve our workflows.\u201d\nIntota has been designed to address the needs of today\u2019s libraries \u2013 managing electronic collections and supporting the expectations of the modern patron. Intota combines discovery, linking, collection management and assessment in one system, built on a single authoritative knowledgebase. With Intota, ProQuest is focused on not just replacing the status quo, but on transforming the library.\nA constant issue within libraries today is the amount of unnecessary hours spent trying to maintain and manage vast collections of electronic resources. Through Intota, the management of electronic resources is transformed resulting in the elimination of unnecessary workloads, allowing staff to focus on more important activities, and it also streamlines the entire e-resource lifecycle including evaluation, acquisition, assessment and renewal.\n[Photos from Aarhaus home page and About the Library.]\nNew ProQuest Service Preserves and Enhances Discovery of University Multimedia Collections\nLibraries can now more easily respond to growing demand for video\u2026",

        "raw_content": "In the previous guide I wrote some tips for dealing with the world of Paid-to-Click (PTC) and Traffic Exchanges. Now here are some things that you should be careful about. The opportunities abound, but you need to be careful to not become the prey in this world of predators.\nIf it sounds too good to be truth, it very likely is too good to be true.\nThat is the golden rule in making money online. I don\u2019t know how new you are to the world of making money online, specially to the world of Affiliate Marketing, PTC Sites and Traffic Exchanges.\nIf you have been here long enough I don\u2019t have to tell you about the many many different scams that exist online. A lot of systems simply exist with the purpose of take something from you. You need to take care of your two valuable assets: Money and Time.\nAt the end of the day, we all have the same limited resources, and we get stuck or get ahead depending on how good we utilize them; on how good we are at investing them.\nSomething that you need to ask yourself when you face a new system is: Where is the money coming from?\nNormally I consider all of the Bux sites scams, with NeoBux being the obvious exception (but it changed it\u2019s business model long ago, the original business model was not sustainable).\nSome sites promise you ads that pay a lot, or a low investment and a huge return of investment. It doesn\u2019t work like that, not for the majority of the people, of course the first ones that get in and do the big investment and the big promotion will get paid, they are needed to \u201clegitimize\u201d the site, so they will get paid well in order to have them taking the screenshots with payments and promoting the site to others.\nBut the rest of the members will lose a lot, maybe not a lot of money, but definitely a lot of time. Some people do get lucky online and find a way that works for them to make a ridiculously large amount of money, but then some people also win the lotery.\nBut buying lottery tickets has never been an investment.\nWarning Signs that a PTC Site is a scam\nThe forums are abandoned\nIf you don\u2019t see an active forum, if the last posts that you find were made a long time ago, it is very likely that the site is death. Don\u2019t waste your time and hope for the best, look for a better alternative.\nThey come out with \u201cSister Sites\u201d\nTheir cash faucet is running dry, so they attempt to open a new one before all the credibility evaporates. The site will stop working short after the \u201cSister Site\u201d is open.\nPublishing proofs of payment is absolutely obligatory\nTo make the site look legit, they will of course send some payments, but they make it a requirement to share the proof of payment in their forums. Some even say that if you don\u2019t submit a proof of payment you will stop getting paid. This is a huge huge warning sign, before you actually manage to make something out of the site it will very likely be closed. You will request your payment, and it will be in \u201cPending\u201d forever.\nThe \u201crented referrals\u201d are very active\nYou can see the contrast between the rented referrals in NeoBux against those in other Bux sites. In NeoBux many stop being active after a short time, you do constant recycling of a few nearly every day. In Scam sites, the rented referrals are very good, and a huge bunch of them go inactive at the exact same time.\nThose are not real referrals, the site is just playing you.\nUnrealistic Premium Plans\nYou pay for a plan, and it gives you back several times what you pay. This is not sustainable, it will just collapse. Take for instance Traffic Monsoon: you pay USD$50, then you get back USD$55 after a long time. A 10% ROI (Return of Investment) is not unrealistic given that they also sell other promotional packages and that this is an incentive to keep you there seeing ads. They are rewarding your activity in the site.\nDon\u2019t get me wrong, it is not sustainable if every member is active and everybody gets to cashout. But that is not what happens, only some stick to it long enough to get paid, so they get paid; the rest quit and don\u2019t ever get paid.\n\u2190 Two days of AdPrize bonus in NeoBux Why you should NOT get into NeoBux to make money \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Angela Tirrell\n\"Storm,\" on display at First Valley Inverness in July, features painter Angela Tirrell's stirring textures and reflects her hopes to use art as social and environmental activism.\nIntense natural destruction and rejuvenation are central themes in the paintings by Angela Tirrell on exhibit this month at First Valley Inverness. Ms. Tirrell\u2019s upbringing in Inverness had a huge effect on her philosophy and work, which is often political and environmental in nature. \u201cThe scents, the lushness, the tranquility, beauty of wildlife, it was so magical, and it still is to me,\u201d she said last week. One piece on display in the shop, titled \u201cGlacial,\u201d evokes the pristine nature of a toxin-free ocean. Ms. Tirrell explained that the mosaic of blue and white dashes is \u201ca prayer that we understand, on a fundamental level, how essential water is.\u201d The crisp glacial hues are subtly threatened from above by darker inky tones standing in for pollution. Another painting, called \u201cStorm,\u201d is about her \u201cdeep grief over the drought. It\u2019s a beautiful, joyous piece with my vision of the wild storms of El Ni\u00f1o.\u201d Glass, oil, pastel, metallic pigment and powder pigment interact in gold constellations and blue streaks; along with shards of black glass, they form a sort of emotional topography\u2014the weight of hope and fear. Ms. Tirrell worked in New York as an art administrator and fundraiser before she founded her own mural company at age 27, taking the leap to devote all her time to art. \u201cIt was mesmerizing to me that you could, just with paint, create an entire emotional environment. That to me is what is powerful about murals,\u201d she said, adding that she hopes to create large-scale murals on ecological and social justice topics around the world. So far, her reputation earned her the commission of a mural in La Porziuncola Nuova, a scaled replica of Saint Francis\u2019s Porziuncola in Italy, in the National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi in North Beach. Following the medieval guild tradition, Ms. Tirrell took on six apprentices from the Academy of Art University to create the soaring, 13th century-style work. She now lives in Napa but keeps a studio at a family home in Inverness. This month, her work is also on display at Salon 9 on Maiden Lane in San Francisco and in the Yountville Community Center in Napa.",

        "raw_content": "MI Lawmakers Troubled Over Ohio ICE Detentions\nSome Michigan lawmakers say immigration enforcement activities should be planned in a way that promotes detainees' access to counsel. (Fibbonaci Blue/Flickr)\nLANSING, Mich. - Some Michigan lawmakers are demanding that immigrants held in detention are ensured better access to justice.\nRep. Stephanie Chang, D-Detroit, is one member of a bipartisan group of state representatives that she describes as \"troubled\" that so many people taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Detroit office are being sent to Youngstown, Ohio.\n\"Youngstown is 230 miles away from Detroit,\" she said, \"so I'm really concerned about what that long distance means for people who may need to be in touch with their children or their family members and, of course, their attorneys, as they are awaiting action in the court.\"\nThe lawmakers sent a letter to Rebecca Adducci, head of the Detroit ICE office, requesting that major enforcement activities are planned in a way that promotes access to counsel. It stated that since mid-January, more than half of people detained in Detroit have been sent to Youngstown. A spokesman for the office said that, whenever possible, the agency aims to keep detainees within the geographical area of their arrest and allows visits, phone calls and legal counsel.\nEarlier this month, immigration agents took more than 100 Iraqi Christians living in the Detroit area into custody, and on Monday, a federal judge granted a stay of removal.\nChang said it is important that enforcement of immigration law doesn't hinder due process.\n\"The enforcement activity does not need to be this high, but I know that that is probably not a likely alternative,\" she said. \"So, what can ICE do to better promote access to the counsel and to ensure better access to justice? We should be exploring those alternatives.\"\nChang said she understands that sometimes there isn't enough local bed space for detainees, but noted that in a meeting earlier this year, Adducci said additional facility contracts in Michigan were being discussed. The letter requests an update on those efforts.\nMary Kuhlman, Public News Service - MI",

It just might be possible.\n\u201cWhat IF we could engineer better health?\u201d is the question to be explored by Miles O\u2019Brien, science correspondent for \u201cPBS NewsHour,\u201d and Dr. Ali Rezai, director of the Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute at West Virginia University, during a Jan. 31 event. As O\u2019Brien and Rezai discuss these projects, they will also highlight complementary research conducted at Purdue.\nThe lecture, which is free and open to the public, is 6:30 p.m. in Stewart Center\u2019s Fowler Hall. The event will be livestreamed.\nThe event is a part of Purdue\u2019s Ideas Festival, the centerpiece of Purdue\u2019s Giant Leaps Sesquicentennial Campaign, which is a series of events that connect world-renowned speakers and Purdue expertise in a conversation on the most critical problems facing the world. One of the Ideas Festival\u2019s themes is health, longevity and quality of life.\nRezai is a neurosurgeon advancing the use of brain chip implants in deep brain stimulation and neuromodulation to treat Parkinson\u2019s disease, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Alzheimer\u2019s disease and traumatic brain injury. His work is recognized across the globe, and his research involving a brain-computer interface to treat paralysis was published in Nature last year and generated front-page news. He has developed pioneering technologies that led to the creation of a company that produces micro-implants to treat chronic pain and headaches.\n\u201cDr. Rezai is a world-renowned neuroscientist who is known for his work related to engineering health, from using micropellet implants of the brain to curb opioid addiction cravings, to using focused ultrasound to treat early-stage Alzheimer\u2019s disease,\u201d said Jessica Huber, a professor of speech, language and hearing sciences and creator of SpeechVive, a device to help people with Parkinson's disease communicate more effectively. \u201cThe Purdue community, with strengths in engineering, neuroscience and other health areas, has a special interest in Dr. Rezai\u2019s work as we answer questions about how engineering such devices can change the lives of patients.\u201d\nThis is the first of four Ideas Festival events that O\u2019Brien will lead.

        "title": "Willie Nelson - T\u00e9l\u00e9charger et \u00e9couter les albums.",
        "raw_content": "As a songwriter and performer, Willie Nelson played a vital role in post-rock & roll country music. Although he didn't become a star until the mid-'70s, Nelson spent the '60s writing songs that became hits for stars like Ray Price (\"Night Life\"), Patsy Cline (\"Crazy\"), Faron Young (\"Hello Walls\"), and Billy Walker (\"Funny How Time Slips Away\"), as well as releasing a series of records on Liberty and RCA that earned him a small but devoted cult following. During the early '70s, Willie aligned himself with Waylon Jennings and the burgeoning outlaw country movement that made him into a star in 1975. Following the crossover success of that year's Red Headed Stranger and \"Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain,\" Nelson was a genuine star, as recognizable in pop circles as he was to the country audience; in addition to recording, he also launched an acting career in the early '80s. Even when he was a star, Willie never played it safe musically. Instead, he borrowed from a wide variety of styles, including traditional pop, Western swing, jazz, traditional country, cowboy songs, honky tonk, rock & roll, folk, and the blues, creating a distinctive, elastic hybrid. Nelson remained at the top of the country charts until the mid-'80s, when his lifestyle -- which had always been close to the outlaw clich\u00e9s with which his music flirted -- began to spiral out of control, culminating in an infamous battle with the IRS in the late '80s. During the '90s and into the 2000s, Nelson's sales never reached the heights that he had experienced earlier, but he remained a vital icon in country music, having greatly influenced the new country, new traditionalist, and alternative country movements of the '80s and '90s as well as leaving behind a legacy of classic songs and recordings. Nelson began performing music as a child growing up in Abbott, Texas. After his father died and his mother ran away, Nelson and his sister Bobbie were raised by their grandparents, who encouraged both children to play instruments. Willie picked up the guitar, and by the time he was seven, he was already writing songs. Bobbie learned to play piano, eventually meeting -- and later marrying -- fiddler Bud Fletcher, who invited both of the siblings to join his band. Nelson had already played with Raychecks' Polka Band, but with Fletcher, he acted as the group's frontman. Willie stayed with Fletcher throughout high school. Upon his graduation, he joined the Air Force but had to leave shortly afterward when he became plagued by back problems. Following his disenrollment from the service, he began looking for full-time work. After he worked several part-time jobs, he landed a job as a country DJ at Fort Worth's KCNC in 1954. Nelson continued to sing in honky tonks as he worked as a DJ, deciding to make a stab at recording career by 1956. That year, he headed to Vancouver, Washington, where he recorded Leon Payne's \"Lumberjack.\" At that time, Payne was a DJ and he plugged \"Lumberjack\" on the air, which eventually resulted in sales of 3,000 -- a respectable figure for an independent single, but not enough to gain much attention. For the next few years, Willie continued to DJ and sing in clubs. During this time, he sold \"Family Bible\" to a guitar instructor for 50 dollars, and when the song became a hit for Claude Gray in 1960, Nelson decided to move to Nashville the following year to try his luck. Though his nasal voice and jazzy, off-center phrasing didn't win him many friends -- several demos were made and then rejected by various labels -- his songwriting ability didn't go unnoticed, and soon Hank Cochran helped Willie land a publishing contract at Pamper Music. Ray Price, who co-owned Pamper Music, recorded Nelson's \"Night Life\" and invited him to join his touring band, the Cherokee Cowboys, as a bassist. Arriving at the beginning of 1961, Price's invitation began a watershed year for Nelson. Not only did he play with Price -- eventually taking members of the Cherokee Cowboys to form his own touring band -- but his songs also provided major hits for several other artists. Faron Young took \"Hello Walls\" to number one for nine weeks, Billy Walker made \"Funny How Time Slips Away\" into a Top 40 country smash, and Patsy Cline made \"Crazy\" into a Top Ten pop crossover hit. Earlier in the year, he signed a contract with Liberty Records and began releasing a series of singles that were usually drenched in strings. \"Willingly,\" a duet with his then-wife Shirley Collie, became a Top Ten hit for Nelson early in 1962, and it was followed by another Top Ten single, \"Touch Me,\" later that year. Both singles made it seem like Nelson was primed to become a star, but his career stalled just as quickly as it had taken off, and he was soon charting in the lower regions of the Top 40. Liberty closed its country division in 1964, the same year Roy Orbison had a hit with \"Pretty Paper.\" When the Monument recordings failed to become hits, Nelson moved to RCA Records in 1965, the same year he became a member of the Grand Ole Opry. Over the next seven years, Willie had a steady stream of minor hits, highlighted by the number 13 hit \"Bring Me Sunshine\" in 1969. Toward the end of his stint with RCA, he had grown frustrated with the label, which had continually tried to shoehorn him into the heavily produced Nashville sound. By 1972, he wasn't even able to reach the country Top 40. Discouraged by his lack of success, Nelson decided to retire from country music, moving back to Austin, Texas, after a brief and disastrous sojourn into pig farming. Once he arrived in Austin, Nelson realized that many young rock fans were listening to country music along with the traditional honky tonk audience. Spotting an opportunity, Willie began performing again, scrapping his pop-oriented Nashville sound and image for a rock- and folk-influenced redneck outlaw image. Soon, he earned a contract with Atlantic Records. Shotgun Willie (1973), Nelson's first album for Atlantic, was evidence of the shift of his musical style, and although it initially didn't sell well, it earned good reviews and cultivated a dedicated cult following. By the fall of 1973, his version of Bob Wills' \"Stay All Night (Stay a Little Longer)\" had cracked the country Top 40. The following year, he delivered the concept album Phases and Stages, which increased his following even more with the hit singles \"Bloody Mary Morning\" and \"After the Fire Is Gone.\" But the real commercial breakthrough didn't arrive until 1975, when he severed ties with Atlantic and signed to Columbia Records, which gave him complete creative control of his records. Willie's first album for Columbia, The Red Headed Stranger, was a spare concept album about a preacher, featuring only his guitar and his sister's piano. The label was reluctant to release with such stark arrangements, but they relented and it became a huge hit, thanks to Nelson's understated cover of Roy Acuff's \"Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain.\" Following the breakthrough success of The Red Headed Stranger as well as Waylon Jennings' simultaneous success, outlaw country -- so named because it worked outside of the confines of the Nashville industry -- became a sensation, and RCA compiled the various-artists album Wanted: The Outlaws!, using material Nelson, Jennings, Tompall Glaser, and Jessi Colter had previously recorded for the label. The compilation boasted a number one single in the form of the newly recorded Jennings and Nelson duet \"Good Hearted Woman,\" which was also named the Country Music Association's single of the year. For the next five years, Nelson consistently charted on both the country and pop charts, with \"Remember Me,\" \"If You've Got the Money I've Got the Time,\" and \"Uncloudy Day\" becoming Top Ten country singles in 1976; \"I Love You a Thousand Ways\" and the Mary Kay Place duet \"Something to Brag About\" were Top Ten country singles the following year. Nelson enjoyed his most successful year to date in 1978, as he charted with two very dissimilar albums. Waylon and Willie, his first duet album with Jennings, was a major success early in the year, spawning the signature song \"Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys.\" Later in the year, he released Stardust, a string-augmented collection of pop standards produced by Booker T. Jones. Most observers believed that the unconventional album would derail Nelson's career, but it unexpectedly became one of the most successful records in his catalog, spending almost ten years in the country charts and eventually selling over four million copies. After the success of Stardust, Willie branched out into film, appearing in the Robert Redford movie The Electric Horseman in 1979 and starring in Honeysuckle Rose the following year. The latter spawned the hit \"On the Road Again,\" which became another one of Nelson's signature songs. Willie continued to have hits throughout the early '80s, when he had a major crossover success in 1982 with a cover of Elvis Presley's hit \"Always on My Mind.\" The single spent two weeks at number one and crossed over to number five on the pop charts, sending the album of the same name to number two on the pop charts as well as quadruple-platinum status. Over the next two years, he had hit duet albums with Merle Haggard (1983's Poncho & Lefty) and Jennings (1982's WWII and 1983's Take It to the Limit), while \"To All the Girls I've Loved Before,\" a duet with Latin pop star Julio Iglesias, became another major crossover success in 1984, peaking at number five on the pop charts and number one on the country singles chart. Following a string of number one singles in early 1985, including \"Highwayman,\" the first single from the Highwaymen, a supergroup he formed with Jennings, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson, Nelson's popularity gradually began to erode. A new generation of artists had captured the attention of the country audience, which began to drastically cut into his own audience. For the remainder of the decade, he recorded less frequently and remained on the road; he also continued to do charity work, most notably Farm Aid, an annual concert that he founded in 1985 designed to provide aid to ailing farmers. While he career was declining, an old demon began to creep up on Willie: the IRS. In November 1990, he was given a bill for $16.7 million in back taxes. During the following year, almost all of his assets -- including several houses, studios, farms, and various properties -- were taken away, and to help pay his bill, he released the double album The IRS Tapes: Who'll Buy My Memories? Originally released as two separate albums, the records were marketed through television commercials, and all the profits were directed to the IRS. By 1993 -- the year he turned 60 -- his debts had been paid off, and he relaunched his recording career with Across the Borderline, an ambitious album produced by Don Was and featuring cameos by Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt, Paul Simon, Sin\u00e9ad O'Connor, David Crosby, and Kris Kristofferson. The record received strong reviews and became his first solo album to appear in the pop charts since 1985. After the release of Across the Borderline, Nelson continued to work steadily, releasing at least one album a year and touring constantly. In 1993, he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, but by that time, he had already become a living legend for all country music fans across the world. Signing to Island for 1996's Spirit, he resurfaced two years later with the critically acclaimed Teatro, produced by Daniel Lanois. Nelson followed up that success with the instrumental-oriented Night and Day a year later; Me and the Drummer and Milk Cow Blues followed in 2000. The Rainbow Connection, which featured an eclectic selection of old-time country favorites, appeared in spring 2001. Amazingly prolific as a recording artist, Nelson released The Great Divide on Universal in 2002. A collection of his early-'60s publishing demos for Pamper Music called Crazy: The Demo Sessions came out on Sugar Hill in 2003. Later in 2003 Nelson released Run That by Me One More Time, which reunited him with Ray Price and kicked off a relationship with Lost Highway Records. It Always Will Be and Outlaws and Angels both appeared on Lost Highway in 2004, followed by the release of Nelson's long-delayed attempt at a country-reggae fusion, Countryman, also on Lost Highway, in 2005. You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker arrived the following year, along with Songbird, Nelson's collaboration with alt-country singer/songwriter Ryan Adams and his band the Cardinals. The double-disc Last of the Breed, an ambitious project that paired Nelson with Merle Haggard, Ray Price, and Asleep at the Wheel, was released by Lost Highway in 2007, followed by the Kenny Chesney/Buddy Cannon-produced Moment of Forever a year later in 2008. Also in 2008, Nelson paired with jazz trumpeter Wynton Marsalis for the live album Two Men with the Blues and with harmonica player and producer Mickey Raphael for some serious-repair remixes of vintage Nelson releases from RCA originally recorded between 1966 and 1970 called Naked Willie. Lost Highway, an album of duets with country and pop singers ranging from Shania Twain to Elvis Costello, appeared in 2009. Also appearing in 2009 was the jazz-inflected American Classic from Blue Note Records. Country Music followed next from Rounder Records in 2010. Nelson reunited with Marsalis again for 2011\u2019s Here We Go Again: Celebrating the Genius of Ray Charles, which was recorded live on February 9 and 10, 2009 at the Rose Theater with Norah Jones also on board. A CD drawn from the shows appeared on Blue Note in the spring of 2011 and in the fall, Willie released a covers collection called Remember Me, Vol. 1. He then signed with Sony Legacy and released Heroes in the summer of 2012, following it in the spring of the next year with a collection of standards called Let's Face the Music and Dance. That fall, he released To All the Girls..., a collection of new duets with female singers. Nelson kept to a rigorous touring schedule despite the fact that he turned 80 in 2013. Though he'd been recording mostly covers for well over a decade, Nelson re-engaged as a songwriter while traveling. Band of Brothers, issued in June of 2014, featured nine originals (co-written with producer Buddy Cannon) among its 14 new songs. Six months later, Nelson launched a projected series of albums (given the collective name Willie's Stash, devoted to music especially close to his heart) with December Day, a low-key collaboration with his sister Bobbie Nelson, in which they performed a set of old standards and lesser-known tunes from Willie's songbook. In 2015, Willie teamed up with his old friend Merle Haggard for Django and Jimmie, their first collaboration in 20 years. Preceded by the single \"It's All Going to Pot,\" the album debuted at number one on the Billboard country chart upon its June 2015 release. Early in 2016, Nelson released Summertime: Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin, and later that year he saluted his early inspiration Ray Price with For the Good Times: A Tribute to Ray Price. Willie Nelson returned to original songs in April 2017 with the album God's Problem Child, which was once again co-produced by Buddy Cannon. Later that October, Nelson released the second volume in the Willie's Stash series: Willie Nelson and the Boys, a collection of classic country covers recorded with his sons Lukas and Micah. That same month, Light in the Attic issued two cataloge projects by Nelson. Teatro \u2013 The Complete Sessions, produced by Daniel Lanois, included seven previously unreleased tracks and a DVD of director Wim Wenders' documentary of the live sessions for the album which took place in a picturesque vintage movie theater. The latter volume was a Record Store Day reissue of the more somber 1996 Island Records' release of Spirit on gold vinyl. Undercelebrated at the time of its release, it has become among the most treasured outings of his late career, featuring the legendary fiddler Johnny Gimble among its personnel. In April 2018, Nelson and Cannon were back with another studio album, Last Man Standing, which included the single \"Me and You.\" The album debuted at number three on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. Five months later, Nelson released My Way, a tribute to Frank Sinatra. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine & Steve Leggett\nColumbia Nashville (15)\nShami Media Group 3 (10)\nLost Highway Records (7)\nLegacy - CBS - Sony (5)\nCountry - Released June 10, 2014 | Legacy - Columbia\nCountry - Released October 20, 1987 | Rhino Atlantic\nCountry - Released June 10, 2014 | Columbia Nashville\nWillie Nelson's Red Headed Stranger perhaps is the strangest blockbuster country produced, a concept album about a preacher on the run after murdering his departed wife and her new lover, told entirely with brief song-poems and utterly minimal backing. It's defiantly anticommercial and it demands intense concentration -- all reasons why nobody thought it would be a hit, a story related in Chet Flippo's liner notes to the 2000 reissue. It was a phenomenal blockbuster, though, selling millions of copies, establishing Nelson as a superstar recording artist in its own right. For all its success, it still remains a prickly, difficult album, though, making the interspersed concept of Phases and Stages sound shiny in comparison. It's difficult because it's old-fashioned, sounding like a tale told around a cowboy campfire. Now, this all reads well on paper, and there's much to admire in Nelson's intimate gamble, but it's really elusive, as the themes get a little muddled and the tunes themselves are a bit bare. It's undoubtedly distinctive -- and it sounds more distinctive with each passing year -- but it's strictly an intellectual triumph and, after a pair of albums that were musically and intellectually sound, it's a bit of a letdown, no matter how successful it was. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released June 10, 2014 | Columbia\nCountry - Released August 30, 2005 | Rhino Atlantic\nIf Shotgun Willie played a bit like a concept album, Phases and Stages was a full-blown one, tracing the dissolution of a marriage and devoting one side to the wife's perspective, the second to the husband's. If anything, Willie overplays his hand a bit, insisting on grafting the \"Phases and Stages\" theme between crucial songs to the point of genuine irritation. But, pretend that never happened, erase it from your mind, and Phases and Stages is easily the equal of its remarkable predecessor, a wonderful set of music that resonates deeply, as deeply as the words. Make no mistake -- the deceptively relaxed arrangements, including the occasional strings, not only highlight Nelson's clever eclecticism, but they also heighten the emotional impact of the album. And this is a hell of an emotional record, where even each side's celebratory honky tonk numbers (the medley \"Sister's Coming Home/Down at the Corner Beer Joint\" and \"Pick Up the Tempo,\" respectively) are muted by sadness. Then, there are the centerpieces: \"Walkin',\" where the woman decides it's time to move on; \"Pretend I Never Happened,\" perhaps the coldest ending to a relationship ever written; \"Bloody Mary Morning,\" a bleary-eyed morning-after tale that became a standard; \"It's Not Supposed to Be That Way,\" a nearly unbearably melancholy account of a love gone wrong; and \"Heaven and Hell,\" a waltz summary of the relationship. Any two of these would have formed a strong core for an album, but placed together in a narrative context, their impact is even more considerable. As a result, this is not just one of Willie Nelson's best records, but one of the great concept albums overall. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released April 27, 2018 | Legacy Recordings\nWillie Nelson started singing about the end of the line a while back but now that he's in his mid-eighties, he's so accustomed to having death lurking around the corner that he can kid about it. That's precisely what he does throughout Last Man Standing, an album that serves as a jocular counterpart to its predecessor, God's Problem Child. Nelson didn't avoid humor on that record, but the vibe seemed haunted by a looming sense that the clock is ticking away. Willie shakes off this spookiness on Last Man Standing, whose title track finds him singing that \"it's getting hard to watch my pals check out\" to a jaunty rhythm. Ultimately, he decides he wants to be the last man standing, a sentiment that's reiterated a few tracks later, when Willie looks into the mirror and determines it's \"better to have bad breath than no breath at all.\" Nelson isn't seizing the day so much as shrugging off worries, and decides just to have a good time. Despite being riddled with songs about death and aging, Last Man Standing is ridiculously fun, thanks not just to Nelson's jocularity -- it's not just gallows humor, either; the swinging honky tonk of \"She Made My Day\" is filled with sly one-liners -- but to the nimbleness of his band. It's no secret that his bandmembers are pros, but it's still a pleasure to hear them play -- they're as compelling sliding into the shimmering jazz overtones of \"Something You Get Through\" as they are kicking out the blues of \"I Ain't Got Nothin'\" -- and they give Nelson plenty of cover for working with his weathered voice. No longer able to croon as he once did, Nelson opts for playing around with the rhythms of his delivery, a move that makes him seem limber, adding a sense of vitality to Last Man Standing. Willie realizes he's not going to be here forever but he's made up his mind to make the most of his time here, and that's why Last Man Standing feels richer than so many self-conscious meditations on mortality. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released September 14, 2018 | Legacy Recordings\nAs a musician, an actor, a businessman and a Texan \u2013 if not American \u2013 icon, Willie Nelson once again proves with this 68th studio album that he isn\u2019t done yet. Following his Last Man Standing, My Way is a beautiful tribute to Frank Sinatra. Co-produced by Buddy Cannon and Matt Rollings, the album mostly covers Ol' Blue Eyes\u2019 career in the sixties. The tender and tremulous voice of eighty-something Willie, graciously coated in orchestra arrangements, is wonderfully enchanting on Fly Me to the Moon, Summer Wind and Cole Porter\u2019s Night and Day. My Way not only pushes the Red Head Stranger away from his beloved country music, but it is also a flashback on memories. Willie Nelson highlights how his encounter with Sinatra played a part in his interpretations. Sharing the swing and purity of phrasing in 2005 for their duo on My Way, or facetiously joking on an announcement about NASA researches, the two giants have always maintained a strong bond, despite their differences. Which goes to show braids and bow ties can go well together! \u00a9 Clara Bismuth/Qobuz\nMortality hangs over God's Problem Child, Willie Nelson's first solo album of original songs since 2014's Band of Brothers. Since that record, Willie lost several friends and he's also been the subject of several death hoaxes, a subject he tackles with a grin on \"Still Not Dead,\" one of seven originals Nelson co-wrote with his longtime producer, Buddy Cannon. \"Still Not Dead\" provides a gateway to the rest of God's Problem Child, where Willie looks at the world with a blend of bemusement and melancholy suiting a road warrior who is still going strong in his eighties. Nelson is in better voice than he was in 2016, when he released two tribute LPs, and his band has a relaxed gait that harks back to his classic outlaw records of the '70s but feels mellowed with age. Not that the album moves slowly. \"Little House on the Hill\" gets things off with a skip and the record regularly returns to a laid-back groove that's often punctuated by blues, honky tonk ballads, and lazy laments. Whenever Nelson looks at his twilight years, it's either with clear eyes or bemusement: he salutes his friends who have crossed over on the lovely \"Old Timer\" and admits that \"It Gets Easier\" when you get older because you can let your feelings fade, but he gets a kick that he's still around to experience it all. His sense of humor remains sharp -- \"Delete and Fast Forward\" is one of the best expressions of exasperation at the state of the world in the late 2010s -- and his sentiment isn't sticky; he salutes the late Leon Russell by leaving in his old friend's guest vocal on the title track and pays tribute to Merle Haggard with \"He Won't Ever Be Gone.\" All these songs hang together -- they're songs about love, loss, memory, and mistakes -- but God's Problem Child isn't a song cycle, nor is it a major statement. It's simply an uncommonly strong latter-day record from Willie Nelson: there isn't a hint of fussiness and the songs and the performances are so understated, they only seem richer with repeated spins. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released February 26, 2016 | Legacy Recordings\nWhen George Gershwin died on July 11, 1937, Willie Nelson was only four year old. A few decades later, we speak of both artists as legends, two monuments of twentieth century music. Perhaps from opposing categories in music, but genius loves company and this fact erases any borders. And this record is further highlighted by the porosity of both worlds. In 2015, Willie received the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, never before awarded to a country artist. This delicious album entitled Summertime - Willie Nelson Sings Gershwin is, therefore, no real surprise in terms of its quality. The nasal voice and of Texan marries to to perfection with the velvet melodies and perfect prose of Gershwin. Among the eleven selected titles, two are interpreted in duet with Cyndi Lauper (Let's Call the Whole Thing Off), and Sheryl Crow (Embraceable You) respectively. At over 82 years ago, Nelson is more crooner than ever here, but in his way that is completely his own. \u00a9MZ/Qobuz\nCountry - Released October 20, 2017 | Legacy Recordings\nFamily has always been important for Willie. At 83 years old, the old outlaw reminds those who might have forgotten about him that he\u2019s still going strong, by signing an album with two of his sons, Lukas and Micah. The second volume of Willie\u2019s Stash, his personal collection of archives, this album brings together tracks recorded during his sessions for the album Heroes in 2011. The atmosphere is relaxed and the repertoire is essentially composed of old country songs of which seven are by Hank Williams (Move It On Over, Mind Your Own Business, I\u2019m So Lonesome I Could Cry, Your Cheatin\u2019 Heart, Cold Cold Heart, Mansion On The Hill and Why Don\u2019t You Love Me). Alongside the three Nelsons, we find Micky Raphael (harmonica), Kevin \u201cSwine\u201d Grantt (bass), Bobby Terry (guitar), Jim \u201cMoose\u201d Brown (keyboard), Mike Johnson (steel guitar), Tony Creasman (drums), Barry Bales (double bass) and Lonnie Wilson (drums) who assure a classy and classic accompaniment, without going over the top, but very much in line with the respectful tone of these tasteful reprises. Heartwarming. \u00a9 CM/Qobuz\nCountry - Released May 29, 2015 | Legacy Recordings\nCountry - Released June 13, 2014 | Legacy Recordings\nWillie Nelson has been a prolific singer and recording artist since the 1970s, but the songwriter who penned hits for Ray Price, Patsy Cline, Billy Walker, and Johnny Cash, among others, hasn't issued an album of predominantly original material since 1996. Band of Brothers ends the drought. Its 14 selections include nine new songs by Nelson (with producer Buddy Cannon) and a handful of fine covers. Opener \"Bring It On\" is a honky tonk waltz that offers wisdom by someone who has lived through plenty as he looks eternity squarely in the eye. He is in excellent voice as Mickey Raphael's harmonica moans to underscore his lyric. Nelson delivers his first guitar solo on Trigger (his nylon-stringed instrument). His playing, with its unique phrasing, has always been underrated and here it evokes the blues. His love songs have always been highlights in his catalog. \"I Thought I Left You\" is in 4/4, with a slow processional pace adorned with slippery steel and piano. The lost romance portrayed in the waltz \"Send Me a Picture\" is another clear standout; a sighing pedal steel and Raphael's mid-register wail echo every sung line. Nelson can still write first-rate, irreverent barroom tunes as well. \"Wives and Girlfriends\" is a swaggering honky tonker, with wiseass lines and a punchy groove. The title track is a midtempo full-band anthem that celebrates the itinerant musician's life. (It pairs thematically with a righteous cover of Bill Anderson's \"The Songwriters.\") The choogling Western swing he employs in \"Used to Her\" updates not only Bob Wills, but Ray Benson. \"The Wall\" is a killer confessional, though in its rear-view mirror reflections, fueled by a strolling Rhodes piano, Travis-style guitars, and a two-step bassline, it's also a road song. Nelson covers two tunes by Billy Joe Shaver. \"Hard to Be an Outlaw\" is a wry, midtempo minor-key spaghetti Western-esque blues with a great guitar break from Willie, while \"The Git Go,\" another bluesy number, is a slow rocking duet with Jamey Johnson. \"Crazy Like Me,\" by Shawn Camp and Billy Burnette, is an update of trucker country rockabilly that sets up the closer, the original \"I've Got a Lot of Traveling to Do.\" It's been 40 years since Nelson gave us \"On the Road Again.\" This is a companion in a sense, less celebratory, more weathered and ornery, but no less restless. Cannon's production here recalls the memory of Nelson's early to mid-'70s records without being slavishly devoted to sounding retro. Phase-shifted and wide-open electric guitars, clean, whining pedal steel, warm and natural shuffling drums, acoustic pianos, organ, and electric basses paint these songs beautifully. On Band of Brothers, Nelson reminds us that no matter the iconic place he occupies in American popular music as a vocal stylist, he is a classic country singer and songwriter first. ~ Thom Jurek\nHoneysuckle Rose - Music From The Original Soundtrack\nCountry - Released August 30, 2010 | Columbia - Legacy\nCountry - Released January 1, 1998 | Island Records (The Island Def Jam Music Group / Universal Music)\nFor whatever reason, Willie Nelson's Teatro -- like Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball -- seems to exist in a vacuum, completely set apart from his other recordings. It's untrue in either case, but especially in Nelson's. A scant year or so before Teatro was released -- and its recording sessions filmed in an old movie theater in Oxnard, California -- Nelson issued his most brilliant album of the 1990s, Spirit. Island's publicists had no idea what to do with Spirit's subtle, unsentimental, moody, and sparsely arranged and performed songs, but the roots of Teatro lie firmly planted there on its opening instrumental, \"Matador.\" As for Teatro itself, Harris is present on 11 of the 14 tracks. In addition, Daniel Lanois, the same mercurial talent who spearheaded Wrecking Ball, produced this set. The mood is set in an arid space where a forlorn mariachi band meets the Harmonica Man (courtesy of Mickey Raphael) on Ennio Morricone's score for Once Upon a Time in the West. Lyrically, Nelson is as ambitious as he was on Spirit, and rhythmically he's more so, but that doesn't necessarily serve him as well. Teatro is a fine record with its sadness and bitterness in \"I Never Cared for You\" and the Spanish two-step of \"Darkness on the Face of the Earth.\" But Lanois is one busy guitar picker here, and it stands at odds with Nelson's more spare yet lyrical style. But it's a good tension. It works better on \"My Own Peculiar Way,\" with the percussion floating and evening out the guitars. The touch of Afro-Cuban rhythm in \"These Lonely Nights\" is sharp in contrast to Nelson's relatively staid and conventional country melody. Here is where Lanois works his magic; he staggers an organ, an electric piano, an accordion, his own electric guitar, a trap kit, and hand percussion all around the beat without anyone playing dead on it. Nelson's voice is the only constant, and it draws the listener right to it. Nelson's cover of Lanois' \"The Maker,\" with Lanois layering thick slaps of sweet, melodic distorted guitar over its intro, is amazing. Harris and Nelson work so well together -- throughout the album but on this track especially -- it's almost a shock they aren't always together. Lyrically, Nelson strides out ahead of all his late-'80s and early-'90s material, continuing the great strides he made with Spirit. Clearly, the slump is over here, and the poetry he spins is accessible, profound, and moving. Teatro is a special album, but it's part two of a story that began with Spirit, and both recordings should be heard in tandem with one another for the full effect. Striking, beautiful, and affecting, Teatro is a sonic film that displays its moving images in the minds and hearts of its listeners. ~ Thom Jurek\nReturning to the Columbia/Sony family after nearly two decades away, Willie Nelson once again tries to be everything to everybody on 2012's Heroes, an appealingly misshapen collection of classics, contemporaries, and originals. Heroes -- its title signifying no great concept -- is roughly divided into quarters, with part of the album devoted to the Western swing and Texas country he's always loved to sing, part consisting of new songs from Willie, part originals from his son Lukas, and part covers of newer, rock-oriented tunes from the likes of Tom Waits, Eddie Vedder, and Chris Martin. Each of these categories is a bit hit-or-miss, either succumbing to cutesy novelty (the dope-smoking anthem \"Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die,\" complete with country cadences from a non-rapping Snoop Dogg) or laziness, and there's a wee bit too much Lukas Nelson scattered throughout the record, with the son of the father singing on no less than nine of the album's 14 songs. This can be too much of a strong spice, obscuring the overall flavor of the music, but Lukas contributes a couple of the record's best songs in \"Every Time He Drinks He Thinks of Her\" and \"The Sound of Your Memory,\" songs that fit well next to a quite beautiful version of Vedder's \"Just Breathe\" and yet another strong, swinging rendition of \"My Window Faces the South.\" And so Heroes kind of winds up summarizing all that's good and bad about Willie as he approaches his 80th birthday: he's open to everything but has no innate editor, so he whiffs as often as he connects, but when he does connect, it's a wonder to behold...and somehow he can still surprise whenever he sings those old songs. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released October 16, 2015 | Columbia Nashville Legacy\nArriving a few short months after the standards collection Let's Face the Music and Dance, which itself came less than a year after his Legacy debut Heroes, To All the Girls splits the difference between these two albums for Legacy. As a duets album comprised entirely of female partners, To All the Girls is, like Heroes, driven by superstar guest power but the intimate, relaxed feel is reminiscent of Let's Face the Music and Dance. Such a quiet, comfortable setting is welcoming to a wide variety of partners, ranging from living legends Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Mavis Staples, and Emmylou Harris to more recent superstars Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood. Between these two extremes lie such excellent, underappreciated, new alt-country singers like Brandi Carlile and the Secret Sisters, family -- both sister Paula Nelson and Melonie Cannon, the daughter of Buddy Cannon -- and stars who are working their way toward legend status (Norah Jones, Alison Krauss, Sheryl Crow, Wynnona Judd, Shelby Lynne). Similarly, the songs split the difference between new versions of Nelson classics (\"Bloody Mary Morning,\" \"Always on My Mind,\" \"Please Don\u2019t' Tell Me How the Story Ends\"), covers of beloved songs (\"Til the End of the World,\" \"Have You Ever Seen the Rain\"), and brand-new tunes (Dolly brings in \"From Here to the Moon and Back,\" which she wrote for Joyful Noise, a gospel musical co-starring Queen Latifah). Nearly all of this proceeds at an amiably lazy gait, which makes the handful of cuts that stray from this path quite notable: \"Bloody Mary Morning\" retains its trademark gallop with Wynnona; Brandi Carlile hits the honky tonk fairly hard on \"Making Believe\"; Shelby Lynne gives a hazy south-of-the-border feel to \"The End of the World,\" and Krauss' \"No Mas Amor\" is dreamy. Although there is not a bad cut here -- this is all assured, easy, impeccably tasteful work from Willie and his partners -- the 70-minute length of To All the Girls does make the album feel a little samey, but that can be a good thing, as it makes for nice, romantic mood music or a drowsy Sunday afternoon at home. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\nCountry - Released November 25, 1984 | Columbia Nashville\nThe Steve Goodman-penned title cut of City of New Orleans was Nelson's umpteenth number one hit; other highlights include his renditions of \"Please Come to Boston\" and \"Wind Beneath My Wings.\" ~ Jason Ankeny\nOf all the records Willie Nelson made in the 1990s and since that time, none is more misunderstood or ignored than Spirit. Coming as it did so quietly and unobtrusively in 1996, a year and a half before the celebrated Teatro, Spirit is Willie's most focused album of that decade. Self-produced and featuring the sparest of instrumental settings -- Willie and Jody Payne play guitars, Bobbie Nelson plays piano, and Johnny Gimble plays fiddle on certain tracks -- Nelson weaves a tapestry, a song cycle about brokenness, loneliness, heartbreak, spiritual destitution, and emerging on the other side. The set begins with the instrumental \"Matador,\" which seems to usher in the atmospheric texture for this album. \"She's Gone\" tells its heartbreak story with as much lilt and pastoral grace as is possible without being sentimental. Willie's guitar soloing is gorgeous; he's deep in the groove of the washes of Bobbie's chords. Hearing a steel-string guitar play rhythm and a nylon-string guitar play lead is an interesting twist as well. But Nelson digs the notion of \"She's Gone\" deeper into the listener's consciousness with \"Your Memory Won't Die in My Grave\": \"Been feelin' kinda free/But I'd rather feel your arms around me/Because you're takin' away/Everything I ever wanted..../It's a memory today, it'll be a memory tomorrow/I hope you're happy someday/\"Your memory won't die in my grave....\" And when Nelson moves to the full acceptance issue as he does on \"I'm Not Trying to Forget You,\" the music is slightly off-kilter in the intro, as if the singer cannot come to grips with the song. Payne plays just behind Willie, stretching time, making it slip and shimmer all the way into \"Too Sick to Pray,\" the most devastating country waltz to be recorded since Johnny Paycheck's Little Darlin' albums. On \"I'm Waiting Forever\" and \"We Don't Run,\" the sun begins to rise out of the heart's bleak night and comes to the dawn of a new day in the life of love and spiritual connection. This is Nelson writing conceptually as he did early on with Phases and Stages and Red Headed Stranger, but he is at his understated best here, moving deeply into the skeleton of the song itself and what it chooses to reveal through the singer. And while Spirit is quiet, it's a tough, big record that makes you confront the roar of silence in your own heart. ~ Thom Jurek\nWillie Nelson in the magazine\nA tender tribute\nAs a musician, an actor, a businessman and a Texan \u2013 if not American \u2013 icon, Willie Nelson once again proves with this 68th studio album that he isn\u2019t done yet.\nKing of the Road: A Tribute to Roger Miller\nFor the younger generations of country musicians, Roger Miller is a character that cannot be ignored.

        "raw_content": "Absent a crystal ball, government at all levels will have to be nimble and flexible in accommodating new ideas when it comes to school choice.\nThe Florida Supreme Court may have struck down a proposed education amendment to the state\u2019s constitution, but the issue the measure raised can\u2019t be easily dismissed.\nIn a 4-3 decision, the court last week removed from the November ballot Amendment 8, which would have given the state the authority to establish and operate public schools, bypassing local school districts. The four justices affirmed a lower-court ruling that the amendment\u2019s language was misleading because it \u201cfails to inform voters of the chief purpose and effect\u201d of the measure.\nAlthough Amendment 8, which was placed on the ballot by Florida\u2019s Constitution Revision Commission, bundled three different education-related proposals into one ballot item, opponents objected to the part that would permit the state \u201cto operate, control, and supervise public schools not established by the school board.\u201d Critics argued that the vagueness of that statement was meant to obscure its real purpose: to transfer the power to create charter schools from local school districts, where they often encounter opposition, to the state, which has been more receptive of charters.\nCharter schools initially were part of the public discussion in drafting Amendment 8. However, both its sponsor, Erika Donalds, a CRC commissioner who is a prominent charter school advocate, and Blaine Winship, the state\u2019s lawyer who defended the measure in court, explained that the word \u201ccharter\u201d was not included in the final language because no one can predict the innovations in school choice, and the commission didn\u2019t want to constitutionally limit future education opportunities.\n\u201cIn another five years,\u201d Winship argued before Leon County Circuit Judge John Cooper, \u201cwho knows what the nomenclature will be?\u201d\nThe courts didn\u2019t buy that argument with regard to the legality of the ballot language. But that shouldn\u2019t invalidate the underlying truth.\nThe CRC meets every 20 years. The last time the panel convened, in 1997, school choice in Florida looked nothing like it does today. The state had just enacted a law authorizing charter schools. In 1997, there were five such schools serving 574 students; today there are more than 650 charter schools educating nearly 300,000.\nThe McKay Scholarship for children with disabilities wasn\u2019t created until 1999. The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship (which are administered by nonprofits such as Step Up For Students, which hosts this blog) didn\u2019t exist until 2002. Florida Virtual School, an online learning site, was established in 1997 with only 77 students; today, it\u2019s the largest state virtual school in the nation.\nIn 2002, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its landmark decision in Zelman v. Simmons-Harris, which upheld the constitutionality of public funding of private school vouchers and opened the door for greater expansion of those programs. The Florida Supreme Court struck down a state-funded voucher program in 2006, while lower courts have affirmed the FTC scholarship.\nClearly, school choice is constantly evolving, being shaped by technology, politics and the courts while being driven by parental demand. Absent a crystal ball, government at all levels will have to be nimble and flexible in accommodating new ideas.\nAmendment 8 attempted to address a contradiction in the Florida Constitution. Although it holds the state responsible for providing a \u201chigh quality\u201d system of free public schools that allows students to obtain a \u201chigh quality\u201d education, it gives local districts substantial control over that process (school boards \u201cshall operate, control and supervise all free public schools within the school district\u201d). Sometimes their goals conflict, stifling innovation and choice.\nMore collaboration between the state and school districts, and more avenues to pursue change, would increase opportunities for families to customize education to fit their children\u2019s needs.\nIn striking down Amendment 8, Judge Cooper wrote that it \u201cinvents a category of school \u2014 those \u2018not established by the school board\u2019 \u2013 that is undefined in Florida law.\u201d The wording may not have passed legal muster for a ballot measure (the so-called \u201ctruth in packaging\u201d accuracy requirements). But just as the Founding Fathers wisely refrained from defining \u201cspeech\u201d and \u201cpress\u201d in the First Amendment \u2013 generalities that have served the nation well through more than two centuries of technological change \u2013 Florida would be justified in keeping open its options on what constitutes a school.\nPrevious articleFlorida schools roundup: ESSA plan, false alarms, security funds and more\nNext articleFlorida Board of Education overturns charter rejection in Leon County\nAmendment 8 and the Future of School Choice \u2013 LocalAd.com News September 17, 2018 at 3:19 pm\n[\u2026] Scott Kent, who spent 30 years writing for Florida and Georgia newspapers, is the strategic communications manager for Step Up for Students.

        "raw_content": "Posted by anonymous on February 19, 2017 January 11, 2019\nThe mask I wear is a pretty thick one. My mask is so intricate that no one would ever perceive it to be a mask. I have never been able to take off this mask entirely. Even during the times that I have been able to peel sums of it off, those moments of liberation were brief.\nOver the years, this suffocating mask has taken on many forms. As a young kid in elementary school, this mask was one of my being a bully \u2013 a kid who was tough, strong, and unstoppable. As I matured throughout elementary school, my mask became less extreme and molded into forms that reflected truer, deeper aspects of myself, but nonetheless, it was still unmistakably a mask. In high school, this mask got me on student council, recognized as the one who was friends with almost everyone. My current mask, the one I wear in college, is the most reflective one of my true self thus far. It appears in many Jewish organizations, volunteers in various hospital/medical settings, and reads too many books to better relationships.\nThis mask always smiles, laughs, cracks jokes, and will do nearly anything to cover up my inner discomfort and vulnerability.\nMajor depressive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, intense loneliness, and frequent suicidal ideation. BUT, there\u2019s also innocence, a deep craving to give love and be loved, a yearning for connection and a need to be understood.\nI could describe the broken home I come from, the family protective services interventions, the irrecoverable traumas endured and bla bla\u2026\nBut everyone has their own personal saga, their stories to tell, their suffering to share. The truth is you don\u2019t need to have a story like mine to feel lonely. I\u2019m just an average girl from the tri-state, in college, with brown hair, just like nearly every other Jewish girl.\nThe Reality of Medication\nI began medication before senior year of high school and probably have tried every single pill on the market and maxed out (surpassed the highest possible dosage of a medication) many times. After a year and a half of failed experimentation, I finally found a combination and dose that works. Despite popular belief, medication is not pixie dust; you don\u2019t just give a little sprinkle tinkle and voila. It\u2019s much more complicated, and not all that magical. Medication does not make you happy, but it helps you take that first step by scraping off the edge. You decide to be happy.\nEven while on medication, I can still fall into severe bouts of depression and even regress to certain behavioral and thought patterns of the past. However, just as a heart monitor goes up and down, this simply shows I\u2019m alive.\nLiving with My Mask, Medication, and Mental Illnesses\nMy communication skills, or lack thereof, stink. It\u2019s painfully difficult to communicate my desires, feelings, and vulnerabilities, almost as if my tongue were made of led. This happens a lot, where I become incapable of participating in conversation and interacting with someone that I want to connect to. My hands get all twisty, my eyes get all puffy, and my neck gets all jerky. Times like these are really frustrating and make me wish it would be socially acceptable to wear signs on our foreheads that read \u201cIn dire need of TLC\u201d or \u201cStruggling to be open, but please don\u2019t give up on me.\u201d\nMy hope is that when you see someone struggling to open up or communicate, tell them, \u201cIt\u2019s okay. Communication can be overwhelming. I know that this isn\u2019t you, so when you\u2019re ready, I really want to hear what you have to say.\u201d\nWhy I Continue to Wear My Mask\nI\u2019ve chosen to remain anonymous because, unfortunately, the stigma that people with mental illness are \u201clower class\u201d people who are needy and are burdens is all too common. But while I am hiding behind the screen, still wearing my mask, I need you to trust me as I say:\n\u201cTo all of you who are suffering and feel worthless, I promise you that you are valued. While mental illness can create a painfully lonely existence, I promise there are people who love you, even if you don\u2019t feel it or receive it in ways that you should or need.\u201d\nMy Inner Struggle\nLast year was a painfully lonely year, because not only did I already feel like I had no relationships, but anyone who I had even the tiniest bit of connection to was halfway across the world studying in Israel. I can\u2019t even begin to count the number of times that I have stood on the subway platform and thought, \u201cAs the next train is approaching, I\u2019m just going to jump.\u201d As I hear the anticipated oncoming train, a voice in my head screams, \u201cDon\u2019t do it. One day, you\u2019ll be glad you didn\u2019t.\u201d It\u2019s usually the next time I receive love from someone, even just a simple hug, that I hear the same voice saying, \u201cSee?\u201d\nWhy I Choose Life\nSomeone told me once that once you\u2019ve hit rock bottom, you can only go up, and suicide doesn\u2019t fix anything; it only removes the possibility of things getting better. It\u2019s true. I have my bouts of loneliness, but I know that one day, I will make an awesome wife, mother, and inspiring example for people to follow.\nJust like ending your life is a choice, building it up to create something great is a choice too. The choice is yours. I choose the latter, and I hope you will too. Please take the time to give someone a hug and tell that person how much they mean to you. It is enough to save a life.\n5 Comments on \u201cWhat\u2019s Under The Mask?\u201d\nThank you for sharing your story! I know what it\u2019s like to struggle with suicidal ideation, and it\u2019s really not easy! May G-d give you continuous strength.\nOn another note, when in therapy, perhaps ask your therapist about CPTSD. Some of what you are struggling with sounds like all of the different symptoms might be related under one roof. All the best!\nWhat a great read this was! I too struggle with \u201cwearing masks\u201d and showing one front at work and another at home. I am yearning for the day when mental health will be a topic of discussion like anything else. I yearn for the day when we can all embrace Mental illness just like any other Nisyon from Hashem.\nWhen I read your piece I thought, I know you. You know me. We are in this together. Therapy, specifically IFS (Internal Family Systems) is helping me peel off the mask and let the love in. Wishing you all the best on your journey to healing.\nI recently started learning about IFS as well and using it in therapy\u2026\nElisabeth Corey of beating trauma website is a great resource- a a blog, a recently published e-book and other materials\u2026\nAll the best with everything and I hope the layers of your mask continue to peel off and you feel a great love come in.\nReading your piece, I felt so much for you. I can relate a lot. Your description of masks, the loneliness, the need for love, a hug, and connection, are all too familiar. The difficulty communicating, the suicide ideation, the thoughts and feelings at the train station, even the diagnoses you mentioned\u2026.I too have been at the edge of the platform many times with those thoughts. Thank you for your words on suicide ideation.\nI can\u2019t say how much I respect you. Through your article, I feel I have met some of the real you. A person I can look up to, who has built herself up in life with incredible bravery and courage\u2026someone I would like to meet, though wearing our respective masks we wouldn\u2019t recognize each other:)\nMay you continue to go from strength to strength in your healing. I believe you will get to where you want to go. Hugs from another mask and much love.",

Ron Hubbard was a firm believer in the power of education and once wrote, \u2018As long as children and young men and women find pleasure in study, they will continue studying throughout life \u2013 and upon that depends their happiness.\u2019 The two charities that we are supporting are giving a gift that lasts a lifetime,\u201d said Mansell.\nWinter Wonderland, now in its 26th year, has become a staple for Tampa Bay area families. This free community event opened on December 1st and will continue through to the 22nd of December (Wednesdays to Sundays). Visitors are encouraged to bring non-perishable food or an unwrapped toy to be distributed to area charities that help families in need. There are small costs for some activities, with those funds also going to area charities, providing holiday celebrations for families who may not otherwise have the wherewithal for this time of year.\nPrevious Previous post: Across The Board Band Wins Award For Best Rock Song And Receives Nomination For 40th Annual Covenant Awards\nNext Next post: Winter Wonderland in Full Swing This Holiday Season",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Memory Care \u00bb What Does Memory Care Cost?\nWhat Does Memory Care Cost?\nMemory care costs depend on a number of factors including the location of the memory care facility, the number of clients accepted, and the amenities offered. Some memory care facilities specialize in late-stage Alzheimer\u2019s disease, whereas others function as a nursing home or assisted living facility. The only true way to know how much memory care will cost is to learn more about the memory care facilities in your area.\nMemory Care Costs Nationally\nThe cost of memory care varies widely, depending on the services available and the facility\u2019s specialization. On average, a private room in a memory care facility in the United States costs approximately $5,745 per month.\nWhat does memory care cost? Source: Getty\nMemory Care Costs Per Region\nThe location of a memory care facility has a significant impact on its cost. For example, it\u2019s more expensive to get memory care in Hawaii than Arkansas. In Hawaii, the average cost of a private room in a memory care facility may cost around $13,216 per month. The cost is significantly less in Arkansas at around $4,132 per month.\nThe most expensive states for memory care are Delaware, New Jersey, Alaska, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New Hampshire with monthly costs over $6,200 per month.\nThe least expensive states for memory care are Missouri, Georgia, North Carolina, Utah, Louisiana, South Dakota and Arkansas with monthly costs under $4,300 per month.\nHow To Choose The Best Memory Care Facility\nIn many ways, memory care is an ever-evolving medical practice, with significant advancements and research on the horizon. It\u2019s important to choose a memory care facility that provides the latest and best care for your loved one.\nTo reduce the stress of searching for the right memory care facility, here are five tips to make the process a little smoother:\nIdentify your care needs. Some facilities specialize in late-stage dementia but cost more for care. By establishing your care needs first, you can find the right level of care at the best price by finding a memory care facility that offers the level of care that is needed.\nEstablish a budget. Memory care can be expensive. Establish your budget at the beginning of your search so you can be realistic about what facilities you can afford.\nMake a list of locations. Because memory care facilities are specialized, it is possible that you won\u2019t have one that\u2019s available in your hometown. Make a list of nearby or acceptable locations that you would consider in your search.\nResearch memory care facilities. Once you know what it is you\u2019re looking for, plan to spend a considerable amount of time researching memory care facilities. This includes time spent online, reading reviews, and visiting the facilities in person.\nDiscuss top picks with your medical provider. When your list is down to the top two or three memory care facilities, discuss the choice with your medical provider to see if they have any insight into which one is best. As a member of the local medical community, it\u2019s possible that they have heard things about the memory care facilities in the area.\nFinding the best memory care facilities can be a daunting task. Start by looking at the facilities closest to you to get an idea of what memory care costs and what services are commonly available.\nBottom Line Cost of Memory Care\nChoosing the right memory care facility is an important decision that impacts your loved one\u2019s health and happiness. You want to choose a memory care facility that has a qualified and friendly staff, state-of-the-art treatment options, delicious food, and fun leisure opportunities, whether an outdoor courtyard or weekly game nights.\nThere are fewer specialized memory care facilities relative to the number of assisted living communities and nursing homes. Despite this, there are still quite a few options to evaluate, especially in larger cities. To figure out which one to choose, you\u2019ll need to conduct research and take tours of your favorites to find the right match your loved one will be happy to live in.\nThe Most Affordable Cities For Memory Care\nWhen searching for memory care, the cost is often a large determining factor. People often make important senior care decisions because of cost, sometimes resulting in a compromise of quality. We have ranked the cities below from least expensive to most expensive to provide you with information about the cost of care.\n2 Tucson AZ $3,774\n4 Mesa AZ $3,856\n5 Orlando FL $4,132\n6 Baltimore MD $3,950\n10 Fort Smith AR $4,132\n34 Tulsa OK $6,097\n45 Washington DC $9,990",

        "raw_content": "Dutch expert says Ukraine body recovery team 'did a hell of a job'\nHRABOVE Ukraine (Reuters) - The Dutch head of a team sent to identify the victims of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 praised the Ukrainian recovery workers who collected hundreds of bodies from a giant swathe of land in a war zone for doing a \u201chell of a job\u201d.\nPeter van Vliet, leader of a 3-man team of Dutch body identification experts, the first international investigators to visit the crash area, said his priority would be getting hundreds of bodies now stored in refrigerated rail cars to a location where they can be identified and sent home.\nDespite reports that some of the bodies may have been looted and were never properly secured during days lying out in summer sun, van Vliet expressed admiration for the recovery crews that gathered them.\n\u201cI\u2019m very impressed about the work that was done over here,\u201d he said after inspecting the main crash site, where bodies were still being found a day earlier pinned under chunks of aircraft wreckage.\nCiting the heat and the scale of the site, he said: \u201cI think they did a hell of a job in a hell of a place.\u201d\nAsked how he felt as a Dutchman at a site where so many of his countrymen were killed, he said he had goosebumps despite the heat.\nPassengers from the Netherlands accounted for two-thirds of the 298 victims of Thursday\u2019s disaster.\nThe Ukrainian government said 282 bodies and 87 fragments had now been found.\nAt the site, the recovery operation appeared to have finished. Crews of recovery workers in blue suits that had been combing the countryside gathering bodies from fields of wheat and sunflowers were nowhere to be seen.\nAll but one of their tents, a portable toilet, and their ambulances were gone. In the surrounding fields there was no sign of the teams of men in blue work suits who had been walking through the wheat and sunflowers looking for human remains.\nPieces of the plane lay in the empty fields, in or near the places where they had fallen, although some had been moved to recover buried remains. An airplane seat, which days ago had a naked woman strapped in it now lay empty in the wheat.\nVan Vliet said in his view the recovery was not entirely complete, but he acknowledged that a full-scale international operation might never be possible in the conflict zone.\n\u201cIn my professional opinion it is not finished,\u201d he said.\nAsked what else would be needed, he said: \u201cA forensic sweep of the entire area. But whether that\u2019s possible I don\u2019t know.\u201d\nEarlier, van Vliet visited refrigerated railway cars where the bodies have been collected and said he was happy with how they were being stored.\nThe bodies are being kept in a train of five grey diesel-powered refrigerated cargo cars, parked behind a locomotive at the main platform of a dilapidated station in Torez, a small town about a 40-minute drive from the main crash site.\nWhen the doors were opened to allow van Vliet\u2019s team inside, heaps of black plastic body bags were visible. The stench was overpowering. Van Vliet and his two colleagues climbed inside with blue plastic gloves and surgical masks to investigate.\nUkrainian officials hope the bodies can be brought by train to the eastern city of Kharkiv, out of the conflict zone, where international identification teams could examine them.\nVan Vliet said he had been promised that the train would be moved later on Monday but not told where it would be sent. He was due to meet rebel leaders later in the day, he said.\nHe declined to give an estimate for how long it might take to identify and repatriate the remains.\n\u201cMy first priority is identifying the victims,\u201d he said.",

Journe Tourbillon Souverain Vertical\nSaying that the Tourbillon Souverain is the most important watch from F.P. Journe would be an understatement. F.P. Journe himself has been captivated by the tourbillon complication from a young age when he was still studying watchmaking and the first-ever wristwatch that he built, the one he presented in 1991 at Baselworld, was the original Tourbillon Souverain. When the brand was launched in 1999, the very first watch produced under Montres Journes was, as you might guess, the Tourbillon Souverain.\nTo celebrate the 20th anniversary of this emblematic model that started Montres Journes\u2019 journey, F.P. Journe unveils its successor: the Tourbillon Souverain Vertical.\nRight off the bat, the first thing you notice when looking at this new timepiece is the vertically positioned tourbillon cage which differs from the traditional horizontal one seen usually. Mr Journe says that the reasoning behind making it vertical is to keep the tourbillon\u2019s functions constant whether the watch sits on its side or lies perfectly flat.\nThe tourbillon is also faster and makes a revolution in 30 seconds instead of the usual time of one minute, and is surrounded by a conical ring with a beautiful mirror polish which concentrates and reflects light onto the tourbillon.\nIf you look closely there is no real dial to speak of. What you might first identify as the dial are actually the bridges on the dial-side of the mainplate of the 18k rose gold movement. This is a direct nod to the original 1991 wristwatch that Mr Journe hand-built and presented at Baselworld which was built the same way. Here, in the Tourbillon Souverain Vertical, the \u201cdial\u201d is decorated with \u201cClous de Paris\u201d guilloch\u00e9 and features two enamel subdials for the hours and seconds which are actually made of one single piece of enamel.\nThe movement is a new one for the Tourbillon Souverain Vertical and features an 80-hour power reserve while still keeping the remontoir d\u2019e\u0301galite\u0301 and deadbeat seconds complications that collectors have come to know and love. This new movement is now housed in a larger 42mm case and available in platinum or 18K rose gold.\nTourbillon Souverain Vertical\nIn Conversation with the Legendary Jean-Claude Biver",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI know we\u2019ve just gotten started, but they used to live here and I just have to say hello.\u201d Ruth Fox waves excitedly across the Seattle House lobby to a mother and a young girl, and they both come running over. Ruth and the mom catch up and marvel at how much the girl has grown.\nAfter a few minutes, the girl tugs on her mom\u2019s hand: she\u2019s anxious to see what has changed at the House since they moved back to their own home. \u201cI love it when families come back to visit,\u201d says Ruth, watching them wander off into the House.\nRuth has met many such families since she started volunteering five years ago at the Seattle House front desk. \u201cI think of the front desk as being like the concierge of a hotel,\u201d she says. \u201cWe answer the phones, we help people with their keys if they get locked out of their rooms. We give people directions to things in the neighborhood or to the zoo or aquarium. Above all, we try to be a welcoming presence.\u201d\n\u201cSometimes, the little things we\u2019re able to do \u2014 giving a resident some shaving cream, or a stamp, or a basketball \u2014 can lighten the load a bit for families. It\u2019s always a great feeling when we\u2019re able to provide what a resident needs.\u201d\nAt the front desk, Ruth gets to know almost everyone who has an interaction with the House: families, staff, volunteers, and donors. She\u2019s always surprised by the many ways that people find to help out around the House. \u201cYou get to see this incredible generosity from the community,\u201d she says. \u201cThere\u2019s always someone walking in the door wanting to do something kind.\u201d\nRuth normally works three front desk shifts every weekend; she\u2019ll occasionally also pick up an evening shift during the week. Over time, Ruth has taken on more duties related to the front desk, like training new volunteers and managing the volunteer schedule. Since she knows all of the volunteers and is such a big part of keeping the front desk running smoothly, some of the other front desk volunteers have jokingly started to call her Mom. She admits (a little sheepishly) that a few of them even signed a Mother\u2019s Day card for her this year.\nEven though she has devoted so much time to the House over the years, Ruth still feels humbled by the families she meets. \u201cI\u2019m not sure that those of us who haven\u2019t lived here, who haven\u2019t gone through these experiences, can truly understand what the House means to the families,\u201d she says. \u201cI don\u2019t find it difficult to continue volunteering \u2014 I find it very rewarding and I look forward to it.\u201d\nWe\u2019re always looking for new front desk volunteers! If you\u2019re interested in volunteering with Ruth at the front desk, or in other opportunities at the House, please click here to check out our Volunteer page.",

After falling over 30\u2019onto a concrete floor, I suffered severe internal injuries, including a perforated small intestine. After many visits to the hospital, the doctors never diagnosed the holes in my intestine, which allowed bodily waste to enter other parts of my body. Soon after, my body became septic and I had to spend over six months in the hospital. Overall, I accrued over $1 million in medical bills.\nOn my behalf, Rob filed a lawsuit against the general surgeon, radiologist, and hospital. He deposed witnesses and experts all around the country, visiting Ohio, Colorado, Texas, Michigan, and of course, Atlanta. Even with his busy schedule, Rob always kept me updated on the status of the case. Where a big decision had to be made, he would explain my options as well as the difficulties associated with each, and together we would decide which course to pursue.\nI was, and still am, extremely satisfied with Rob\u2019s work and with the outcome of my case. Rob strives to be there for his clients, and I was no exception. Even later, when I would call Rob with legal questions unrelated to the case, he was always there to answer them.

        "raw_content": "\u2018World economy is skating on thin ice\u2019\n\u00a9 Jason Redmond \u00a9 Reuters\nAs economic weakness is present almost across the globe, the oil market is oversupplied and Iranian sanctions are lifted, the best oil producers can hope for is a decline in US oil production and an increase of demand, experts say.\nIn the US the price of North Dakota sour crude went negative with a refiner charging oil producers 50 cents to take away each barrel of crude. The oil price dropped to a 13-year low in Monday trading to below 28 dollars per barrel. The oil market has been even more turbulent since Tehran announced it is ready to contribute an additional half a million barrels daily.\nREAD MORE: Oil falls below $28 per barrel as Iran sanctions lifted\nRT: How do you think Iran's return to the oil market will affect the industry and the plunging prices?\nRichard Heinberg, a senior fellow at the Post Carbon Institute: Everyone is expecting Iran to up its oil production as a result of the lifting the sanctions. I think it is not going to happen immediately, it is going to take place over a longer period of time \u2013 the period of many months, perhaps years. Nevertheless, the prospect of more oil from Iran is weighing on oil prices; it is only one of the many factors. And that is really devastating for the industry.\nUS crude that's worth less than nothing\nRT: And how will it affect Russia?\nRH: Russia is one of the countries that is producing flat out right now at pretty much its highest level ever. That\u2019s also true of the OPEC countries. I think if the market is going to be rebalanced it is going to have to happen as a result of increased demand and supply declining. I think the prospect for declining supplies is there in the US, in the shale sector, where we\u2019ve seen dramatic growth over the past few years. Already we are seeing declining production in Texas. In North Dakota oil production has been flat to declining for the past 14 months. Drillers in all of these areas in the US have been targeting the highest quality resources so as to keep costs down. So, they are drilling less but targeting their very best wells. Again, that\u2019s kept the cost down. But there are only so many places to drill and they are running out of these first rate drilling locations. So, I would say that prospect in the US is for declining production. It is unclear if OPEC is going to maintain its current rate of production or if that will decline\u2026\nRT: In your view will we ever see the oil prices return to their peak or are we here with this new reality for good?\nRH: It\u2019s impossible to say what oil prices will do in the future. Clearly, we are headed for lower levels of oil production over the short term, particularly in the US and that probably means globally as well. Will that bring the oil prices back up? Not over the short-term because the demand just isn\u2019t there. We are seeing economic weakness almost across the board around the world. Even with oil prices below $30 a barrel - that\u2019s not stimulating significant new demand. That tells us that the world economy is skating on thin ice right now. Until that situation changes, I don\u2019t think there is support for significant and high oil prices. That\u2019s said, it is also true that until we get oil prices in a range of $80 to $100 a barrel or higher, we are not going to see significant investment on the industry and higher rates of drilling\u2026\n\u00a9 Andrew Cullen \u00a9 Reuters\nRT: We saw that the price of North Dakota sour crude went negative recently\u2026 What is the situation with oil industry in the US right now?\nAndy Lipow, President of Lipow oil Associate LLC: What we are seeing in North Dakota this sour crude oil which is in high sulfur, is something that no one wants, and as a result it can\u2019t go in a pipeline system and it has to trucked and railed out of the state which incurs a lot of cost and as a result the buyers don\u2019t want to pay any more for that.\nThe majority of the US producers are suffering because they are all exposed to this lower oil price. But especially we are seeing up in Canada where the oil sands producers are getting less the $9 a barrel for their bitumen - the heaviest material coming out of the ground.\nWe\u2019ve already seen with these lower prices that about 250,000 people worldwide have already lost their jobs; about 50,000 jobs have been lost in Texas. We except those numbers to increase as these low prices encourage more bankruptcies and consolidation in the industry\u2026\nThe oil boom towns are now experiencing an oil bust which means that they are losing sales revenue. People are being laid off. We are seeing schools and other government entities be effected by lower budgets.\nRT: How big could Iran's impact on the industry possibly be while it and Saudi Arabia those still remain the top producers?\nAL: I don\u2019t think OPEC is going to take any action. If you look: you have Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates which are all Sunni allying against Iran which is a Shia nation. And Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the Emirates are unwilling to give up any market share with the return of Iranian oil.\nIranians said they want to increase sales about 500,000 barrels a day. Now that sanctions have been lifted this is really bad news for the oil market which is already oversupplied by over a million barrels a day. So, the best set that producers can hope for is declining production here in the US. At the same time the world oil demand increases. Things may begin to look better in 2017 or 2018.\nRight now it appears that no country is willing to slash their oil production, especially those members of OPEC. So, they are really hoping that someone else always cuts production and they are in for hard times in 2016\u2026",

        "title": "Ex-US presidential advisor thinks Trump won't run again",
        "raw_content": "Former-US presidential advisor thinks Trump won't run again\nDr Pippa Malmgren is in Dublin today to speak to over 800 business people at PwC's annual Business Forum\nThere is a chance that US President Donald Trump will not run for a second term in the White House, according to a former Special Economic and Policy Assistant to former US President George W Bush.\nDr Pippa Malmgren, who is in Dublin today to speak to over 800 business people at PwC's annual Business Forum, believes Mr Trump wants to launch TNN - Trump News Network - and that this was the original reason why he ran for the presidency.\n\"I suspect he still has that vision. He thinks it's a bigger platform and he may not be wrong about that. I'm wondering, why is Kanye in the West Wing? Why is he talking to the Kardashians? It suddenly makes sense if he's launching an entertainment station with everything from reality TV to talk shows, \" Dr Malmgren said, adding that a platform like TNN might be more powerful than the West Wing.\nDr Malmgren believes the US President's trade war with China is part of his desire to announce \"a very big deal\". \"He's a property guy. He loves announcing deals, and that's what he is after here, and frankly the Chinese want this deal as well,\" she added.\nThe midterm election results means Mr Trump is not going to get anything on domestic affairs, according to Dr Malmgren, and so he is going to put all his attention on foreign affairs. \"What he wants is to say is 'I made China bow to America's position'. Whether in the end that is really true or not is different. The Chinese are going to say, what we want is an arrangement that we can all work with for many years to come. I suspect we will get a deal between the Americans and the Chinese before Trump leaves office.\"\nOne of the topics that Dr Malmgren will discuss at PwC's annual Business Forum is Brexit. She is advising the British government on Brexit, but her views on the subject are her own. She said she is often asked which side will win - the British or the EU?\n\"My answer always is, why can't they both succeed with very different business models. I think the British are going to do a lot more trade with the world whichever framework they end up with, because the whole debate about Brexit has caused the business community to say look at how fast the US economy is growing, look at what's happening in Latin America, Africa, Asia. I think they are diversifying like crazy and I think that's a very good thing for the British economy, and all of that is great for Ireland, if both of them succeed.\"\nOne of the complaints that unites business people in Ireland, Northern Ireland and Britain is the lack of clarity. They are operating in an information vacuum. Dr Malmgren said the British government is working on \"what is the actual deal\", and while the government is in the middle of negotiations, \"we have to leave this to the Prime Minister who is, I think, doing her best to get to a framework\".\nShe said the bottom line is that trade will happen regardless of the framework so everybody should be getting ready to just keep doing business. \"International investors are very interested in deploying more capital into the UK regardless of the sector because it's leading in artificial intelligence; it's very strong in manufacturing; every time sterling goes down, it's a better deal. As someone who worked in that sector for many years, the idea that it's all going to move to the continent doesn't make any sense\" she said.\n\"The idea that it's completely removed from the UK doesn't make any sense either,\" she said, \"because what drives it is rule of law and tax policy and innovation. I think the UK will continue to have a very attractive picture on all those fronts.\"\nMORNING BRIEFS - A sell-off on Wall Street continued last night amid steep declines in oil prices and losses among technology shares. The Dow Jones shed 550 points to close 2.2% lower, weighed down by Apple, whose share price plunged by nearly 5%. The Nasdaq index fell 1.7% to its lowest level since February.\n*** Two bedroom apartments in the new Capital Dock residential scheme in Dublin's south docklands are being advertised at \u20ac3,300 a month. The Irish Times is reporting that that this is likely to set a new benchmark for apartment rents in the capital.\n*** Media giant Cond\u00e9 Nast has said it will stop printing monthly editions of its 80-year-old Glamour magazine in the US and move entirely online. Editor in chief Samantha Barry, who is originally from Cork, said the fashion and lifestyle magazine would target audiences \"on the platforms they frequent most\". The print media industry globally faces dwindling advertising sales and tough competition from online publications.\n*** Japan said it is ready to work for the stability of the Nissan-Renault global alliance following the arrest of chairman Carlos Ghosn. Nissan has portrayed itself as a victim of Mr Ghosn, who it accused of years of wrongdoing. Tokyo prosecutors have won permission from a district court to extend the detention of Mr Ghosn for a further 10 days.\n*** DIY group Kingfisher has reported a fall in sales of 1.3% across Europe. The group's main businesses in Ireland are B&Q and Screwfix. The group said it plans to exit Russia, Spain and Portugal so it can focus on other markets.",

        "raw_content": "Smack dab in the middle of February sits Valentine\u2019s Day, a holiday named, oddly enough, after a Christian martyr and saint, thus, St. Valentine\u2019s Day. (Men, you\u2019ve been warned.) The holiday lives on, indeed, the holiday seems to have a life of its own, even though the life of the saint it was named after is a bit sketchy.\nI\u2019ll let Wikipedia do the grunt work here:\nA popularly ascribed\u2026identity appears in the Nuremberg Chronicle (1493). Alongside a woodcut portrait of Valentine, the text states that he was a Roman priest martyred during the reign of Claudius. He was arrested and imprisoned upon being caught marrying Christian couples and otherwise aiding Christians who were at the time being persecuted by Claudius in Rome. Helping Christians at this time was considered a crime. Claudius took a liking to this prisoner. However, when Valentinus tried to convert the Emperor, he was condemned to death. He was beaten with clubs and stones; when that failed to kill him, he was beheaded outside the Flaminian Gate. Various dates are given for the martyrdom: 269, 270, or 273. (Wikipedia, St. Valentine)\nOh yeah, and he also ticked off the Roman Emperor for refusing to reject the divinity of Jesus. And since the Roman Emperor also thought of himself as divine, there was a bit of competition for that exalted title. If indeed this is the real Valentine from which the holiday is named, he certainly deserved it. Evangelist, preaching the Gospel to the emperor himself; radical, marrying Christians when it was illegal to do so; and finally martyred, killed for what he believed to be true. Apparently, this Valentine really did understand the nature of love: to lay down your life for what you believe, to lay down your life for your friend, Jesus.\nJesus never met the Roman Emperor. There were far too many lower level bureaucrats and politicians standing in between. And all of them, Caiaphas, Herod, and Pilate, had pretty much the same view toward Jesus: he was a problem that needed to be dealt with. And he thought much, much too highly of himself. About midway through the Gospel of John, that is, about midway through Jesus ministry, Caiaphas had already figured out what needed to be done about the \u201cJesus problem.\u201d\nJohn 11:47\u201352 (ESV) 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council and said, \u201cWhat are we to do? For this man performs many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.\u201d 49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, \u201cYou know nothing at all. 50 Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish.\u201d\nAnd that is of course what happened. Jesus, God\u2019s Valentine to you and me.\nIn Christ\u2019s Loving Service,",

        "title": "From the Executive Editor: Bridge series finds key questions unanswered | The Sacramento Bee",
        "raw_content": "It would be a good thing if at this point in the construction we all could feel as Matthews did about the western span \u2013 grateful for a job well done, and confident that we're safe when we use it.\nBut at a projected cost of $6.5 billion, as The Bee's Charles Piller reports on Page A1 today, it's not yet clear whether this new bridge will be able to withstand a severe earthquake.\nPiller has spent 10 months investigating tips, many from within Caltrans itself, that call into question the structural integrity of the new bridge, set to open by Labor Day 2013.\nHe's found problems that should concern all of us. In his initial report last year he found that a Caltrans employee responsible for radiation tests on the piles for the bridge main tower had a history of falsifying those tests on other structures, and failed to ensure his testing device was working properly when he tested the Bay Bridge (a routine requirement). He was fired, along with his boss. Later, Caltrans rescinded his firing.\nThen Piller looked into conflicts of interest among the experts commissioned by Caltrans to figure out whether there is a problem with the structural integrity of the bridge. In a story published earlier this year, he reported numerous financial and professional conflicts of interest that cast doubt on their findings that the bridge and its foundation are safe.\nIn the story published today, Piller discusses the sonic test results he subsequently found that reveal problems with a 19-foot section of concrete in one of 13 key support piles. Nothing was ever done to retest or adequately check that pile, and Caltrans apparently does not have any records to show a second pile was even tested.\nMore alarming is that more than six months after Piller's first report, neither the highest officials at Caltrans, nor Gov. Jerry Brown, are publicly addressing these concerns.\nKey questions remain unanswered:\nWhy would a contractor fail to retest the concrete in one of 13 piles when the initial test showed a major anomaly?\nWhy was Caltrans unaware of that test result?\nWhy isn't Caltrans concerned that it lacks test results for another pile?\nWhy aren't the governor and Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty leading a publicly transparent review of these issues?\nSince he began reporting, Piller has reviewed 60,000 Caltrans documents and interviewed dozens of people, including independent engineering experts and confidential Caltrans sources. He's called dozens of experts, and many, to avoid damaging their relationship with Caltrans, have been reluctant to talk to him.\nHe has yet to have a meaningful conversation with the Governor's Office, which continues to refer all questions to Caltrans.\nYet earthquake safety is a serious issue for Californians. The state expects 100 million drivers a year to use the new bridge. We all know it's just a matter of time before another quake hits the Bay Area, where 63 people were killed in Loma Prieta.\nScott Lebar, The Bee's senior editor for investigations who has worked with Piller on this story, said, \"The bottom line is the bridge may be safe, it may be able to withstand the earthquake it was built to endure, it may be just fine. But because of the holes in the record keeping and the questions raised by the tests, we don't know. I'm going to assume that those crossing it will feel that, not just for $6.5 billion, but for any price, they shouldn't have to wonder.\"\nCaltrans open to outside experts reviewing new Bay Bridge",

        "raw_content": "What Singapore\u2019s real crazy rich Asians spend their money on: the houses they buy, restaurants they eat at and holidays they take\nThis month sees the release of the much-anticipated Crazy Rich Asians film, but how close is it to real life? We talk to Singapore\u2019s high rollers and the people that deal with them to find out what really gets them going\nTristan Jinwei Chan\nSingapore American films Crazy Rich Asians\nWhat makes Singaporeans happy: money, security, complaining, and \u2026?\nAs wacky as its title sounds, the big-screen adaptation of Kevin Kwan\u2019s 2013 novel Crazy Rich Asians could not have come at a more appropriate time. Figures from research firm Wealth-X found that Asia\u2019s billionaire population jumped by a third last year, showing that wealth is continuing to gravitate towards the region.\nThe story satirises a stereotype of indulgent, wealthy Asians with comic exaggeration, portraying Singapore\u2019s unfathomably rich in their elite social circles: from private couture fittings and ponds filled with pet sharks to extravagantly ornate mansions. Due to premiere in US cinemas on August 15, the film has been billed as \u201cDynasty on steroids\u201d.\nFind Singapore boring? Dig a little deeper and you might be surprised\nTouted as the first Hollywood film with an (almost) all-Asian cast since The Joy Luck Club was released in 1993, Crazy Rich Asians tells the tale of a Chinese-American economics professor who falls for Singapore\u2019s most eligible bachelor, and of his disapproving mother, who suspects her of being a gold-digger.\nThough tales of affluent people leading lavish lifestyles are common in Singapore, merely having money does not command a place among the city state\u2019s elite. Similar to \u201cold money\u201d social circles in cities such as New York, London and Hong Kong, it is status and prestige spanning generations that are the marks of \u201cblue blood\u201d.\nThe Credit Suisse Global Wealth Report 2017 revealed that Singapore was home to 152,000 US-dollar millionaires, equivalent to about 2.7 per cent of the population of 5.6 million.\nTopping the list of Singapore\u2019s real crazy rich Asians are brothers Robert and Philip Ng, according to this year\u2019s Forbes rich list, which estimates the property developers are worth a collective US$11.9 billion. Facebook co-founder and Singapore resident Eduardo Saverin ranks second with US$11.8 billion, followed by Nippon Paint Holdings\u2019 shareholder Goh Cheng Liang (US$8.5 billion) and conglomerate Hong Leong Group chairman Kwek Leng Beng and his family (US$7.6 billion).\nFurther down the list in seventh place are the four Kwee brothers (US$5.4 billion) of Pontiac Land, the group behind luxury hotels such as the Ritz-Carlton and Capella Singapore. The group\u2019s chairman, Kwee Liong Tek, is married to Donna (n\u00e9e Aratani), daughter of Kenwood Electronics founder George Aratani. Their only son, Evan Kwee, is married to Claudia Sondakh, who is from one of Indonesia\u2019s richest families.\nSuch tight-knit connections and intermarrying among the extremely wealthy are commonplace because of the need for trust and the importance of guarding and managing the families\u2019 wealth, says a personal coach to high-net-worth individuals, who declines to be named.\nChinese American actress Constance Wu, who plays the female lead, Rachel Chu, in Crazy Rich Asians, told Time magazine it was the authenticity of the characters that drew her to the book. \u201c[Kwan] focuses on making our stories whole. The bits we\u2019re proud of, the bits we try to hide, the tremendous heart that beats underneath it all,\u201d she said.\nFor play, my poison is the arts. I am converting parts of my Bangkok home into an art gallery for a collection of khon masks that I have commissioned\nKenneth Kam, author and forex trader\nBut does Wu really know what makes Singapore\u2019s crazy rich Asians tick?\n\u201cThe high-net-worth community [in Singapore] can be split into three groups: the showy celebrity wannabes, the socialites, and the executives,\u201d says the anonymous personal coach.\n\u201cThe first loves telling the world what they are doing and posting on social media about their activities. The second group is social, and its individuals enjoy attending high-profile events to be seen and heard. The third set attends networking functions for professional and business purposes.\u201d\nNaturally, they all enjoy dining out. But exclusive restaurants are surprisingly few in the wealthy city (notably, no restaurants were awarded three stars in the latest Michelin guide). The personal coach says popular dining spots for the wealthy include Cut by Wolfgang Puck, Waku Ghin and Tong Le Private Dining.\n\u201cMany of them are collectors of rare art pieces, watches, cars, wine, jewellery and exclusive bags. Some may have their own private jets, and they like to invest in overseas property,\u201d she adds.\nAccording to real estate consultancy Jones Lang LaSalle, wealthy Singaporeans put a premium on residential investment properties in Britain and Australia.\n\u201cWe see a stronger preference for prime residential properties in these countries, particularly in London, Sydney and Melbourne,\u201d says Ong Teck Hui, head of research and consultancy at Jones Lang LaSalle. \u201cThe favourable fundamentals in these countries include transparency, an established legal framework and a track record of yielding good returns.\u201d\nIn Singapore, Ong says, wealthy Singaporeans have over the past year been drawn to luxury residential developments such as New Futura, Gramercy Park, Martin Modern and 120 Grange.\n\u201cLike all investors, [the wealthy] consider the market cycles of the different cities in their investment decision. Recently, the Singapore residential market has bottomed out after four years of softening and is in the early stages of recovery,\u201d Ong says.\nA growing number of affluent Singaporeans also like to invest in their personal aspirations, including philanthropy. Kenneth Kam, author, forex trader and a National Arts Council Distinguished Patron of the Arts, finds joy in his love of the arts and numbers.\n\u201cWhen I work, I dedicate myself completely and utterly to the trade at hand. I am immersed in numbers, formulas, charts. It\u2019s all about the maths and algorithms, and these are areas that guide my principles in wealth creation and plotting my business,\u201d Kam says.\n\u201cFor play, my poison is the arts. I am converting parts of my Bangkok home into an art gallery for a collection of khon masks that I have commissioned. Khon is a form of traditional Thai performance by men in masks that, in the old days, was meant for royalty in the Thai court. I also have Marvel comic and Star Wars collectibles among my modern art collection.\u201d\nKam adds that he believes it is essential to find equilibrium between receiving and giving in life.\n\u201cMy foundation, the Kenn Foundation, funds special-needs students in visual therapy programmes. Through this, arts can empower young people, and enrich and bring joy and hope to the lives of many,\u201d he says.\nLaurence Lien, chairman of the charity Community Foundation of Singapore, says that there is a trend among the wealthy towards philanthropy, tied to a strong business sensibility.\n\u201cHigh-net-worth philanthropists today are increasingly sophisticated,\u201d he says. \u201cThey look for more involvement and greater accountability for their donations. They want to find out who they are truly helping and whether programmes can be sustained after funding ends.\u201d\nDestinations such as Ethiopia and Iran are becoming increasingly popular [among Singapore\u2019s wealthy]\nNico Heath, co-founder and director, Lightfoot Travel\nArguably, wealthy Singaporeans are not as \u201ccrazy\u201d as Kwan\u2019s book depicts them. Apart from dedicating time and money to philanthropy, however, many also crave unique travel experiences. One business associate, in his late 20s, says: \u201cSingaporean high-net-worth individual travellers are moving away from mass-manufactured experiences and desire something that is distinct and different from the everyday travel blog or mindless Instagram post.\u201d\nOff-the-beaten-path travel experiences rank high on the wealthy community\u2019s radar, says Alex Malcolm, founder of Jacada Travel, a boutique travel operator targeting affluent Singaporeans.\n\u201cMore people are looking for an experience that, while still having business-class flights and five-star hotels, takes them out of their comfort zone to experience something they never thought they would do,\u201d he says.\nMichelin Guide Singapore 2018: no restaurants earn three Michelin stars\nWith a growing appetite for adventure, \u201cdestinations such as Ethiopia and Iran are becoming increasingly popular\u201d, says Nico Heath, co-founder and director of Lightfoot Travel, an independent luxury travel operator.\n\u201cIt\u2019s also a well-known fact that Singaporeans are foodies, and this doesn\u2019t stop when they travel,\u201d Heath says. \u201cMany guests choose a destination for its culinary experiences, such as cooking classes in Sri Lanka or the famous sushi of Tokyo. We also find that Singaporeans prioritise privacy and exclusivity, with private villas and yachts becoming increasingly popular, especially for multi-generational family holidays.\u201d",

Created, designed, and operated by a group of teachers, parents, and community leaders, charter schools are authorized by a local public school district board or county board of education. They are paid for with tax dollars and open to all who wish to attend them.\nThe charter establishing each school is a performance contract detailing the school\u2019s program, goals, students served, methods of assessment, and ways to measure success. Charter schools are accountable to their sponsor to produce positive academic results and adhere to the charter contract. The length of time for which charters are granted in California is five years. At the end of the initial term, the school may obtain a five-year renewal by petitioning the school board that originally granted the charter.\nThere are currently 56 charter schools in Sonoma County.

The Company consolidates all other operations generally using a one-month lag and based on a calendar year. There were no significant intervening events during October 2013 related to the operations consolidated using a lag that materially affected the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.\nThe Walmart International segment offers a limited number of consumer credit products, primarily through its financial institutions in select countries. The receivable balance from consumer credit products was $1.2 billion, net of a reserve for doubtful accounts of $93 million at October 31, 2013, compared to a receivable balance of $1.2 billion, net of a reserve for doubtful accounts of $115 million at January 31, 2013. These balances are included in receivables, net, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.\nThe Company values inventories at the lower of cost or market as determined primarily by the retail method of accounting, using the last-in, first-out (\"LIFO\") method for substantially all of the Walmart U.S. segment's inventories. The Walmart International segment's inventories are primarily valued by the retail method of accounting, using the first-in, first-out (\"FIFO\") method. The retail method of accounting results in inventory being valued at the lower of cost or market since permanent markdowns are currently taken as a reduction of the retail value of inventory. The Sam's Club segment's inventories are valued based on the weighted-average cost using the LIFO method. At October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013, the Company's inventories valued at LIFO approximate those inventories as if they were valued at FIFO.\nInformation on significant long-term debt issued during the nine months ended October 31, 2013, is as follows:\nThe aggregate net proceeds from these long-term debt issuances were approximately $6.7 billion, which were used to pay down and refinance existing debt and for other general corporate purposes. The Company also received additional aggregate net proceeds of approximately $0.4 billion from other, smaller long-term debt issuances in several of its international operations, which were used primarily to refinance existing debt.\nOn April 11, 2013, the Company issued $1.0 billion principal amount of its 0.600% Notes due 2016, $1.25 billion principal amount of its 1.125% Notes due 2018, $1.75 billion principal amount of its 2.550% Notes due 2023 and $1.0 billion principal amount of its 4.000% Notes due 2043. The aggregate net proceeds from these note issuances were approximately $5.0 billion. The notes of each series require semi-annual interest payments on April 11 and October 11 of each year, with the first interest payment made on October 11, 2013. Unless previously purchased and canceled, the Company will repay the notes of each series at 100% of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at maturity. However, the Company has the right to redeem any or all of the notes that mature on April 11, 2023, at any time on or after January 11, 2023, and to redeem any or all of the notes that mature on April 11, 2043, at any time on or after October 11, 2042, in each case at 100% of the principal amount, together with the accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The notes of each series are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and are not convertible or exchangeable.\nOn October 2, 2013, the Company issued $1.0 billion principal amount of its 1.950% Notes due 2018 and $750 million principal amount of its 4.750% Notes due 2043. The aggregate net proceeds from these note issuances were approximately $1.7 billion. The 1.950% Notes due 2018 series require semi-annual interest payments on June 15 and December 15 of each year, with the first interest payment commencing on June 15, 2014. The 4.750% Notes due 2043 series require semi-annual interest payments on October 2 and April 2 of each year, commencing on April 2, 2014. Unless previously purchased and canceled, the Company will repay the notes of each series at 100% of the principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at maturity. However, the Company has the right to redeem any or all of the notes that mature on October 2, 2043, at any time on or after April 2, 2043, at 100% of the principal amount, together with the accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The notes of each series are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and are not convertible or exchangeable.\nThe Company is a party to receive fixed-rate, pay variable-rate interest rate swaps that the Company uses to hedge the fair value of fixed-rate debt. The notional amounts are used to measure interest to be paid or received and do not represent the Company's exposure due to credit loss. The Company's interest rate swaps that receive fixed-interest rate payments and pay variable-interest rate payments are designated as fair value hedges. As the specific terms and notional amounts of the derivative instruments match those of the fixed-rate debt being hedged, the derivative instruments are assumed to be perfectly effective hedges. Changes in the fair values of these derivative instruments are recorded in earnings, but are offset by corresponding changes in the fair values of the hedged items, also recorded in earnings, and, accordingly, do not impact the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. These fair value instruments will mature on dates ranging from February 2014 to May 2014.\nThe Company has issued foreign-currency-denominated long-term debt as hedges of net investments of certain of its foreign operations. These foreign-currency-denominated long-term debt issuances are designated and qualify as nonderivative hedging instruments. Accordingly, the foreign currency translation of these debt instruments is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), offsetting the foreign currency translation adjustment of the related net investments that is also recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013, the Company had \u00a5200 billion and \u00a5275 billion, respectively, of outstanding long-term debt designated as a hedge of its net investment in Japan, as well as outstanding long-term debt of \u00a32.5 billion at October 31, 2013 and January 31, 2013, that was designated as a hedge of its net investment in the United Kingdom. These nonderivative net investment hedges will mature on dates ranging from August 2014 to January 2039.\nThe Company also uses forward starting receive variable-rate, pay fixed-rate swaps (\"forward starting swaps\"), to hedge its exposure to the variability in future cash flows due to changes in the LIBOR swap rate for 10- and 30-year debt issuances forecasted to occur in the future. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to these derivatives will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings as interest expense is incurred on the forecasted hedged fixed-rate debt, adjusting interest expense to reflect the fixed-rate entered into by the forward starting swaps. These cash flow instruments hedge forecasted interest payments to be made through May 2044. These forward starting swaps will be terminated on the day the hedged forecasted debt issuances occur, but no later than October 31, 2014, if the hedged forecasted debt issuances do not occur. The Company terminated forward starting swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $2.5 billion by making a cash payment to the related counterparties of $74 million in connection with the April 2013 debt issuances described in Note 4. The $74 million loss was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and will be reclassified to earnings over the life of the related debt, effectively adjusting interest expense to reflect the fixed-rate entered into by the forward starting swaps.\nThe Company considers several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, current cash needs, capacity for leverage, cost of borrowings and the market price of its common stock. The number of shares repurchased, average price paid per share and cash paid for share repurchases for the nine months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012, were as follows:\nGender Discrimination Class Actions: The Company is a defendant in Dukes v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., which was commenced as a class-action lawsuit in June 2001 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asserting that the Company had engaged in a pattern and practice of discriminating against women in promotions, pay, training, and job assignments, and seeking, among other things, injunctive relief, front pay, back pay, punitive damages, and attorneys' fees. On June 21, 2004, the district court issued an order granting in part and denying in part the plaintiffs' motion for class certification. As defined by the district court, the class included \"[a]ll women employed at any Wal-Mart domestic retail store at any time since December 26, 1998, who have been or may be subjected to Wal-Mart's challenged pay and management track promotions policies and practices.\" The Company appealed the order to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and subsequently to the United States Supreme Court. On June 20, 2011, the Supreme Court issued an opinion decertifying the class and remanding the case to the district court. On October 27, 2011, the plaintiffs' attorneys filed an amended complaint proposing a class of current and former female associates at the Company's California retail facilities, and the Company filed a motion to dismiss on January 13, 2012. On September 21, 2012, the court denied the motion. The plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification on April 15, 2013. On August 2, 2013, the court denied the motion. On August 16, 2013, the plaintiffs filed a petition for permission to appeal that ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On November 18, 2013, the Ninth Circuit denied that petition.\nOn October 28, 2011, the attorneys for the plaintiffs in the Dukes case filed a similar complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas entitled Odle v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., proposing a class of current and former female associates employed in any Walmart region that includes stores located in the state of Texas. On October 15, 2012, the court in the Odle case granted the Company's motion to dismiss, dismissing with prejudice the plaintiffs' class-action allegations and the individual claims of the lead plaintiff, Stephanie Odle. On March 19, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit denied the plaintiffs' petition for permission to appeal. On October 2, 2012, the plaintiffs' attorneys filed another similar complaint in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee entitled Phipps v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., proposing a class of current and former female associates employed in \"Region 43, centered in Middle and Western Tennessee.\" On February 20, 2013, the court in the Phipps case granted the Company's motion to dismiss, dismissing with prejudice the plaintiffs' class-action allegations. On September 11, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit granted the plaintiffs\u2019 petition for permission to appeal that ruling. On October 4, 2012, the plaintiffs' attorneys filed another similar complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, entitled Love v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., proposing a class of current and former female associates employed in certain designated stores and clubs in regions centered in the state of Florida. On September 23, 2013, the court in the Love case granted the Company\u2019s motion to dismiss, dismissing\nwith prejudice the plaintiffs\u2019 class-action allegations. Finally, on February 20, 2013, the plaintiffs' attorneys filed another similar complaint in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, entitled Ladik v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., proposing a class of current and former female associates employed in \"Region 14, which includes Wal-Mart retail stores located in parts of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.\" On May 24, 2013, the court in the Ladik case granted the Company's motion to dismiss, dismissing with prejudice the plaintiffs' class-action allegations. On June 13, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit denied the plaintiffs' petition for permission to appeal. Management does not believe any possible loss or the range of any possible loss that may be incurred in connection with these matters will be material to the Company's financial condition or results of operations.\nThe Company could be exposed to a variety of negative consequences as a result of the matters noted above. There could be one or more enforcement actions in respect of the matters that are the subject of some or all of the on-going government investigations, and such actions, if brought, may result in judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions, cease and desist orders, debarment or other relief, criminal convictions and/or penalties. The shareholder lawsuits may result in judgments against the Company and its current and former directors and officers named in those proceedings. The Company cannot predict at this time the outcome or impact of the government investigations, the shareholder lawsuits, or its own internal investigations and review. In addition, the Company expects to incur costs in responding to requests for information or subpoenas seeking documents, testimony and other information in connection with the government investigations, in defending the shareholder lawsuits, and in conducting the review and investigations. These costs will be expensed as incurred. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $69 million and $224 million respectively, related to these matters. Of these expenses, approximately $43 million and $135 million, respectively, represent costs incurred for the ongoing inquiries and investigations and $26 million and $89 million, respectively, relate to the Company's global compliance program and organizational enhancements. These matters may require the involvement of certain members of the Company's senior management that could impinge on the time they have available to devote to other matters relating to the business. The Company expects that there will be on-going media and governmental interest, including additional news articles from media publications on these matters, which could impact the perception among certain audiences of the Company's role as a corporate citizen.\nThe Company is in process of completing the following transactions that impact the operations of Walmart International:\nIn September 2013, Walmex, a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a definitive agreement with Alsea S.A.B. de C.V. to dispose of Walmex's Vips restaurant business (\"Vips\") in Mexico for approximately $625 million. Accordingly, the Vips operating results are presented as discontinued operations in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013 and 2012. Additionally, the Vips assets and liabilities to be disposed of are reported separately in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2013. The Vips sale is subject to approval by Mexican regulatory authorities and is expected to close during the fourth quarter. Upon completion of this transaction, the Company expects to record a net gain, which will be recorded in discontinued operations in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.\nIn September 2013, certain redeemable noncontrolling interest shareholders exercised put options that would require the Company to purchase a portion of their shares in Walmart Chile at the mutually agreed upon redemption value to be determined after exercise of the put options. Upon initial exercise of the put options, the Company recorded an increase to redeemable noncontrolling interest of $977 million, with a corresponding decrease to capital in excess of par value, to reflect the estimated redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest at $1.4 billion. Subsequent to period end, the Company negotiated with the redeemable noncontrolling interest shareholders to acquire all of their redeemable noncontrolling interest shares. In February 2014, upon closing of the purchase of the shares held by the redeemable noncontrolling interest shareholders, the Company's ownership interest in Walmart Chile will be approximately 99.7 percent. The Company will then initiate a tender offer for the remaining 0.3 percent noncontrolling interest held by the public in Chile at the same value per share as will be paid to the redeemable noncontrolling interest shareholders. The tender offer is expected to close in March 2014.\nDuring the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with Bharti Ventures Limited (\"Bharti\") to acquire Bharti\u2019s ownership stake in Bharti Walmart Private Limited, a joint venture between Bharti and the Company established in 2007, which operates the Company\u2019s wholesale cash & carry business in India, for $100 million. Upon completion of the transaction, the Company will be the sole owner of that business. In addition, the Company also entered into agreements with Bharti to terminate its franchise and supply agreements with Bharti Retail Limited (\"Bharti Retail\"), which operates Bharti's retail business in India, and to transfer to Bharti the Company's investment in that business. The Company will pay, or forgive indebtedness, aggregating approximately $234 million in connection with such agreements related to the Bharti retail business. Each of these transactions is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close during the fourth quarter. The Company expects to record a net loss in continuing operations in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income related to the transactions with respect to Bharti Retail.\nThe Company is engaged in the operations of retail stores located in the U.S., Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Central America, Chile, China, India, Japan, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The Company's operations are conducted in three reportable business segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International and Sam's Club. The Company defines its segments as those business units whose operating results its chief operating decision maker (\"CODM\") regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources. The Company sells similar individual products and services in each of its segments. It is impractical to segregate and identify revenues for each of these individual products and services.\nThe Walmart International segment consists of the Company's operations outside of the U.S., including various retail websites. Walmart International operates retail, wholesale and other types of units, including restaurants and some banks. The overall gross profit rate for Walmart International is lower than that of Walmart U.S. because of the margin impact from Walmart International's wholesale and other units. Walmart International has been our most rapidly growing segment, growing primarily through new stores and acquisitions and, in recent years, has been growing its net sales and operating income at a faster rate than our other segments.\nThe Sam's Club segment includes the warehouse membership clubs in the U.S., as well as samsclub.com. Sam\u2019s Club operates as a membership club warehouse with a lower gross profit rate and lower operating expenses as a percentage of net sales than our other segments.\nOur fiscal year ends on January 31 for our U.S. and Canadian operations. We consolidate all other operations generally using a one-month lag and on a calendar basis. Our business is seasonal to a certain extent due to different calendar events and national and religious holidays, as well as different weather patterns. Historically, our highest sales volume and operating income occur in the fiscal quarter ending January 31.\nThis discussion, which presents the results of Walmart and its consolidated subsidiaries for periods occurring in the fiscal years ended January 31, 2014 (\"fiscal 2014\") and January 31, 2013 (\"fiscal 2013\"), should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of October 31, 2013, and the accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Consolidated Financial Statements as of January 31, 2013, the accompanying notes and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended January 31, 2013, and incorporated by reference in, and included as an exhibit to, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013.\nThroughout this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we discuss segment operating income, comparable store and club sales and other measures. Management measures the results of the Company's segments using, among other measures, each segment's operating income, including certain corporate overhead allocations. From time to time, we revise the measurement of each segment's operating income or other measures, which includes certain corporate overhead allocations, as determined by the information regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker. When we do so, the previous period amounts and balances are reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. The amounts disclosed for \"Corporate and support\" in the leverage discussion of the Company's performance metrics consist of corporate overhead and other items not allocated to any of the Company's segments.\nComparable store and club sales is a metric that indicates the performance of our existing U.S. stores and clubs by measuring the change in sales for such stores and clubs, including e-commerce sales, for a particular period from the corresponding period in the previous year. Walmart's definition of comparable store and club sales includes sales from stores and clubs open for the previous 12 months, including remodels, relocations and expansions, as well as e-commerce sales. We measure the e-commerce sales impact by including those sales initiated through our websites and fulfilled through our dedicated e-commerce distribution facilities, as well as an estimate for sales initiated online, but fulfilled through our stores and clubs. Changes in\nformat are excluded from comparable store and club sales when the conversion is accompanied by a relocation or expansion that results in a change in retail square feet of more than five percent. Comparable store and club sales are also referred to as \"same-store\" sales by others within the retail industry. The method of calculating comparable store and club sales varies across the retail industry. As a result, our calculation of comparable store and club sales is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.\nOur consolidated net sales increased 1.6% and 1.7% for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. The increases in net sales were primarily due to 3.3% year-over-year growth in retail square feet, higher e-commerce sales, the impact of fiscal 2013 acquisitions, which accounted for $314 million and $730 million of the net sales increases for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, and positive comparable club sales at Sam's Club. These increases were partially offset by $1.6 billion and $3.3 billion of negative impact from fluctuations in currency exchange rates for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, and by decreases in comparable store sales at Walmart U.S. and in a number of our international operations.\nComparable store and club sales in the U.S., including fuel, decreased 0.2% and 0.6% for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. The total U.S. comparable store and club sales were negatively impacted by lower consumer spending primarily due to the slow recovery in general economic conditions, and the 2% increase in the 2013 payroll tax rate, partially offset by increased member traffic driven by various membership enhancements at Sam's Club. Additionally, e-commerce sales positively impacted total U.S. comparable store and club sales percentages approximately 0.2% for each of the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2013.\nFor the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, operating expenses increased 2.0% and 2.2%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year, while net sales increased 1.6% and 1.7%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. Accordingly, we did not meet our objective of growing operating expenses at a slower rate than net sales for either period. Overall, lower than anticipated net sales, higher investment in key areas, such as global leverage and e-commerce initiatives, and additional expenses related to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (\"FCPA\") inquires and investigations and our global compliance program and organizational enhancements contributed to us not leveraging for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013. Expenses incurred for the FCPA inquires and investigations and our global compliance program and organizational enhancements were $69 million and $224 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, compared to $48 million and $99 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012, respectively. The negative leverage impact of these items was partially offset by lower incentive expenses for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013.\nFor the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, operating income grew 3.6% and 2.0%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year, while net sales increased 1.6% and 1.7%, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates negatively impacted operating income $16 million for the three months ended October 31, 2013 and positively impacted operating income $10 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2013. We grew operating income at a faster rate than net sales for both periods primarily due to increases in the gross margin rate of 13 basis points and 11 basis points for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, and increases in our membership and other income of 12.3% and 3.0% for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively. These increases in operating income were partially offset by the factors we discussed for not leveraging operating expenses.\nManagement believes return on investment (\"ROI\") is a meaningful metric to share with investors because it helps investors assess how effectively Walmart is deploying its assets. Trends in ROI can fluctuate over time as management balances long-term potential strategic initiatives with possible short-term impacts. ROI was 17.5% and 18.0% for the trailing twelve-month periods ended October 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decline in ROI was primarily due to investments in stores, clubs and e-commerce, growth in working capital and the impact of acquisitions.\nWe define ROI as adjusted operating income (operating income plus interest income, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense) for the trailing twelve months divided by average invested capital during that period. We consider average invested capital to be the average of our beginning and ending total assets of continuing operations, plus average accumulated depreciation and average amortization less average accounts payable and average accrued liabilities for that period, plus a rent factor equal to the rent for the fiscal year or trailing twelve months multiplied by a factor of eight. When we have discontinued operations, we exclude the impact of the discontinued operations.\n(2) Total assets of continuing operations as of October 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 in the table exclude assets of discontinued operations that are reflected in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of $367 million, $80 million, and $89 million, respectively.\nWe define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities in a period minus payments for property and equipment made in that period. We generated free cash flow of $3.8 billion for the nine months ended October 31, 2013, compared to free cash flow of $7.0 billion for the nine months ended October 31, 2012. The decline in free cash flow was primarily due to the timing of payments for income taxes and payables, as well as higher capital expenditures when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year.\nOur total revenues, which are mostly comprised of net sales, but also include membership and other income, increased 1.7% for each of the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. The increases in total revenues were primarily a result of increases in our net sales, which increased 1.6% and 1.7% for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively. The increases in net sales were primarily due to 3.3% year-over-year growth in retail square feet, higher e-commerce sales, the impact of fiscal 2013 acquisitions, which accounted for $314 million and $730 million of the net sales increases for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2013, respectively, and positive comparable club sales at Sam's Club. These increases were partially offset by $1.6 billion and $3.3 billion of negative impact from fluctuations in currency exchange rates for the three and nine months ended",

        "raw_content": "New Factory-in-a-Box Accelerates Production of Viral Vector Based Therapeutics\nProduct News: New Factory-in-a-Box Accelerates Production of Viral Vector Based Therapeutics\nGE Healthcare have launched a ready-to-run factory-in-a-box to speed up the production of viral vector-based therapeutics, including viral vector-based vaccines, oncolytic viruses and gene and cell therapies. The new, prefabricated and modular KUBio biomanufacturing facility is designed, constructed, assembled and fully fitted-out to current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) standards significantly faster that is required to build a traditional, stick-built manufacturing facility. This makes it possible to build capacity quickly and easily, allowing drug manufacturers to adapt to market requirements. The factory is also pre-engineered so that it can be expanded at a later stage to offer increased manufacturing output according to the drug demand.\nCommercial viral vector therapies started appearing in mid-2000, and their popularity has increased due to their platform approach and advancements in cell engineering. Currently, there are over 700 viral vector-based therapies in clinical trials and several treatments have already received a market approval. Viral vectors are modified viruses that are being used as vehicles (or \u2018carriers\u2019) to deliver genetic material into target cells. They protect the new gene from degradation, while delivering it to the target cells that start using the new genetic code to cure or treat a certain disease.\nDiscover more news and updates on drug manufacturing and development in our Drug Discovery & Development Community >>\nGE\u2019s newest KUBio is designed for products requiring a biosafety level 2 (BSL2) environment such as viral vector-based therapies, but even monoclonal antibody (mAb) and multi-product manufacturers can use the facility. The standard KUBio BSL2 includes a FlexFactory single-use biomanufacturing platform, where the recommended bioreactor size is between 200 and 1,000 liters. The facility can be extended with a larger, or additional manufacturing suite according to the market need. As a part of the project, GE provides end-to-end bioprocessing support including manufacturing equipment, a prefabricated modular facility and accompanying suite of services, including installation, financial guidance, project coordination, qualification and equipment maintenance services.\n\u201cThe market is moving towards more targeted therapies designed for smaller patient populations. The challenge is that most therapeutics going through clinical trials are not suited for the existing, predominantly large-scale manufacturing infrastructure. Biomanufacturers are looking for fast market entry, lower costs, smaller batches and multiproduct manufacturing flexibility,\u201d says Olivier Loeillot, General Manager, BioProcess, GE Healthcare Life Sciences.\n\u201cAs the viral vector-based therapies have started entering the market, we are proud to be supporting access for these promising new treatments with flexible manufacturing capacity that is in the right scale,\u201d Loeillot says.\nGE already offers a prefabricated manufacturing solution, KUBio for the production of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), a FlexFactory biomanufacturing platform for a variety of biologics and most recently, a scalable FlexFactory platform for cell therapy. Three KUBios and over 40 FlexFactories have already been purchased globally.\nFor more information about GE Healthcare's KUBio BSL-2 solution, click here.\nDo you use products from GE Healthcare in your laboratory?

        "title": "Our History | Sesame Workshop",
        "raw_content": "Explore the Sesame Story\nIn 1969, Sesame Workshop started with a single bold question: could television be used to educate kids? With a barrier-breaking cast, deep early childhood education expertise, and the unforgettable Muppets of Sesame Street, our founders set out to do just that. We\u2019ve been asking the big questions\u2014and reaching inspiring milestones\u2014ever since.\nRevisit the iconic moments you remember and discover the innovative ways that we\u2019ve delivered on our mission through the years.\nSesame Milestones\nCelebrating 50 Years of Helping Kids Everywhere Grow Smarter, Stronger, and Kinder\nCheck back for all the exciting news!\nSpreading the Power of Learning Through Play\nLess than 3% of global humanitarian aid is dedicated to education, with only a small fraction benefitting young children. The LEGO Foundation, building on the bold philanthropy of the MacArthur foundation, granted Sesame Workshop $100 million to provide children affected by the Rohingya and Syrian crises with the chance to learn through play and develop the skills they need to thrive. Working in partnership with BRAC, the International Rescue Committee, and New York University\u2019s Global TIES for Children, our play-based curriculum will foster engagement between children and their caregivers, nurture developmental needs, and build resilience, helping to set children on a path of healthy development.\nSesame Street in Every Community\nNationwide, more than 2.5 million children go to sleep without a home of their own every night -- and that number is on the rise. In response to this growing problem, we launched an initiative to engage and support children and families who are experiencing homelessness in 2018. Starring in videos, storybooks, and interactive activities, the resilient and relatable Lily is the face of this Sesame Street in Communities program.\nWith Sesame Street in Communities, a multimedia initiative that brings our educational resources directly to children and families who need them, we\u2019re helping teachers, doctors, social workers, and caregivers give children a strong and healthy start.\nGrowing and Innovating\nIn 2018, we partnered with Nelvana to create Esme & Roy, Sesame Workshop\u2019s first new animated show in over ten years. The program follows a young girl and her best friend on their adventures as the best monster babysitters in Monsterdale. Aimed at children ages four to six, it offers a creative new approach to teaching \u201clearning through play\u201d and mindfulness strategies.\nMet with an enthusiastic critical response, Esme & Roy was part of a new wave of innovative content. Today, working for new platforms and with new partners, we have more shows in development than ever before.\nUnderstanding Autism with Julia\nAn estimated one in 59 children in the United States is on the autism spectrum. While the diagnosis is common, public understanding of autism is not. Through the See Amazing in All Children initiative, we help support families of autistic children and reduce the isolating misconceptions that still surround autism with the help of Julia, the first Sesame Street Muppet with autism. Julia\u2019s 2017 television debut was greeted with hundreds of media stories and millions of social media impressions, but the biggest marker of our success was the overwhelming response from the autism community and beyond.\nRestoring Hope to a Generation\nOver 30 million children have been displaced in the global refugee crisis, losing homes and loved ones and enduring the kinds of trauma that puts them at risk for lifelong impairment. Children are remarkably resilient--e know that if we reach them early, we can help change their trajectories. But we also know we can\u2019t do it alone -- we need partners who understand the plight of refugees as well as we understand the needs of young children. So, with a historic support from the MacArthur Foundation, we teamed up with the International Rescue Committee to build the largest early childhood intervention in the history of humanitarian response.\nMeet Zari\nIn Afghanistan, Sesame co-production Baghch-e-Simsim stars our first Afghan Muppet, Zari\u200a\u2014\u200aan energetic six-year old girl who loves to go to school and play sports. Zari promotes gender equity, serving as a role model for young girls and showing boys that it\u2019s okay for girls to go to school, play cricket, and aspire to a career. Zari\u2019s younger brother, Zeerak, joined the cast the following year. Zeerak looks up to his big sister, promoting the idea that women\u2019s place in society extends beyond the home.\nSupporting Children with Incarcerated Parents\n2.7 million children in the United States have a parent in state or federal prison, but few resources exist to support young children and families coping with that reality. To help children with an incarcerated parent cope, we launched an initiative to equip adults and children with strategies and resources to help them feel comforted and connected through this difficult time.\nMilitary Kids Serve, Too\nIn 2006, military deployments were at record levels, but existing resources often overlooked the youngest members of military families. Sesame Street reported for duty with a multimedia initiative that equipped families with child-friendly tools to tackle the unique challenges of military life. Topics include deployments and homecomings, grief and loss, military-to-civilian transitions, and how to stay healthy as a family.\nCoping with National Tragedy\nIn September 2001, Sesame Street was in the middle of production. Following the terror attacks on 9/11, we knew we had to address children\u2019s emotional needs in the aftermath. We created a special series of Sesame Street episodes to give kids tools for coping with fear, loss, and culturally-motivated bullying\u2014including one starring real New York City firefighters. In 2005, following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, we aired a special episode about Big Bird dealing with the aftermath when his nest is destroyed in a storm. We also created a series of resources that families still turn to during natural disasters.\nBreaking a Culture of Silence\nIn South Africa in the late 1990s, an estimated\u200a1 in 4 children were affected by the HIV/AIDS crisis, either orphaned by the disease or infected themselves. Working with South Africa\u2019s Department of Education, we developed the first-ever preschool curriculum to address HIV and AIDS, and created our groundbreaking HIV+ Muppet, Kami. Today, Kami and her friends still help reduce the stigma surrounding AIDS in the region.\nBridging Painful Divides\nIn the mid-1990s, a Sesame Street co-production in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza introduced original characters who modeled cooperation and mutual respect to the youngest generation of Israelis and Palestinians, earning a letter of commendation from President Bill Clinton. Throughout the mid-2000s, Sesame Workshop produced other empathy-building co-productions in high-conflict areas, including Sesame Tree in Northern Ireland and Rruga Sesam and Ulica Sezam in Kosovo.\nAs part of a race-relations initiative, Whoopi Goldberg and Elmo compared and celebrated the colors and textures of their skin and fur in a now-classic segment. This tradition would continue through the years with \u201cI Love My Hair,\u201d \u201cLupita Nyong\u2019o Loves Her Skin,\u201d and other segments that promote empathy, cultural competence, and mutual respect and understanding.\nSnuffy, Revealed\nFor many years, the adults on Sesame Street thought that the shaggy, elephant-like creature called Mr. Snuffleupagus was Big Bird\u2019s imaginary friend. But Snuffy wasn\u2019t imaginary. Big Bird knew he was real, but his grown-up friends didn\u2019t believe him. That changed in 1985. In the wake of a string of high-profile child abuse cases, we wanted to show children that the caring adults in their lives would believe them. By acknowledging that Big Bird was right about Snuffy all along, Sesame Street validated children\u2019s feelings, encouraging them to share important things with their parents and caregivers.\nEveryone\u2019s favorite furry red monster was once an unnamed background character. Before long, Elmo\u2019s signature voice and cheerful attitude began to emerge. In 1984, he made his first appearance as \u201cElmo.\u201d He would go on to be a Sesame superstar \u2014one of the most recognized children\u2019s characters in the world!\nFarewell Mr. Hooper\nWill Lee, who portrayed beloved shopkeeper, Mr. Hooper, passed away in 1983. The decision was made not to replace the actor, or have the character \u201cmove away.\u201d Sesame Workshop\u2019s curricular experts and script writers carefully planned how to tell young children about death. The program won an Emmy Award and struck an emotional chord with a generation of viewers.\nThe success of Sesame Street in the United States sparked interest from broadcasters around the world. The first international co-productions\u2014Vila S\u00e9samo in Brazil and Plaza S\u00e9samo in Mexico\u2014premiered in 1972, followed by Germany\u2019s Sesamstrasse in 1973. Through this process, we developed a model for creating co-productions that reflected the educational priorities and cultural sensibilities of individual countries\u2014a model that\u2019s still in use today.\nBeyond Sesame Street\nOnce Sesame Street found its preschool audience, Sesame Workshop\u2014then known as the Children\u2019s Television Workshop\u2014asked how we could serve other populations and meet other educational goals. In 1971, we launched The Electric Company to combat the literacy crisis facing children ages 7-10. Throughout the years, we created other classic animated and live-action shows like 3-2-1 Contact, DragonTales, and GhostWriter to meet kids\u2019 changing needs.\nSesame Street\u2019s first episode opened with Gordon showing a new child around the neighborhood, telling her she\u2019d \u201cnever seen a street like Sesame Street.\u201d With celebrity guests, catchy songs and animations, and the beloved Muppets of Sesame Street, the show was an instant hit with children and parents alike. By the end of its first season, Sesame Street had reached millions of preschoolers.\nAgainst the backdrop of the Civil Rights movement and the War on Poverty, Sesame Street founders Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morrissett had a simple but revolutionary idea: television could help prepare disadvantaged children for school. They tapped educational advisors, researchers, television producers, artists, and other visionaries to create what would become the longest-running children\u2019s show in American television history.\nSesame Street has won 189 Emmy Awards\nWinner of the first-ever Macarthur 100&Change Award\nWinner of two Peabody Awards\nRecipient of a Smithsonian American Ingenuity Award 2017\nAwarded the IBC2018 International Honour for Excellence\nNamed one of the \u201cWorld\u2019s Most Innovative Companies\u201d by Fast Company\nAwarded $100 million from the LEGO Foundation\nWe promise to keep our enthusiasm in check \u2014 how does an email once or twice a month sound?",

That means that before we look over the internal components of your ride we take time to make sure that you're working with a solid foundation. Our comprehensive undercar inspections and services cover an important area of your car that can easily be neglected and give the foundation of your vehicle the care and attention it deserves.\nAvoid disaster by coming in and having your undercarriage checked out today. Call us at 319-351-6805 or visit us in Iowa City, IA so we can schedule an appointment to ensure your car is in tip-top shape!\nAnti-lock brakes prevent wheel lock-up when rapidly decelerating by automatically modulating the brake pressure during an emergency stop. With this system, the wheels are able to maintain traction with the road while braking. Failure of the anti-lock brakes could lead to an increase in the risks of multiple vehicle crashes and run-off road crashes. To avoid this, have your anti-lock brake system checked and repaired by experts. At Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck, we have anti-lock brake experts who will examine and repair your faulty ABS - keeping you safe.\nA brake is a mechanical device for slowing or stopping a vehicle (usually by means of friction). In short, a brake inhibits your car's motion. It lets you stop the car whenever and wherever you choose. Brakes are one of the most important parts of a motor vehicle. Without them, you would not be able to stop the car. If your vehicle's brakes are having issues, consider having them worked on. Brake experts at Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck can work on your car's brakes to ensure you have a safe drive.\nA chassis is the car's internal framework that supports the body and other parts like the wheels, engine, transmission, driveshaft, differential, and suspension. A weak or damaged chassis will translate to a weak car. To have a strong and properly working vehicle, have your car's chassis checked for defects. At Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck, there are experienced undercar service providers who can work on your chassis.\nIn a motor vehicle, an exhaust system is a piping used to guide exhaust fumes away from the engine - usually to the rear of the vehicle. A properly functioning exhaust system not only sounds better, it is better - for you, your car, and the environment. Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck has expert technicians to service your car's exhaust system.\nShocks (or shock absorbers) are mechanical devices designed to smooth out rough roads. The devices do this by converting kinetic energy to another form of energy. Properly working shocks reduce the effect of traveling over rough ground, leading to improved ride quality and vehicle handling. When shocks develop problems, driving on poorly leveled roads becomes unpleasant, and your vehicle may sway when turning. To have your vehicle's shocks diagnosed and repaired, visit Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck today.\nMuch like a shock absorber (shocks), your car's struts provide a dampening effect as you travel over a road's surface. By absorbing the shock of the road, struts allow passengers to ride in a car without constant and uncomfortable motion. Struts work a bit differently than shocks in that they provide structural support for your car's suspension. This means that struts support your car's weight, unlike shocks which only regulate the speed at which the weight is transferred. Struts usually last around 50,000 or 60,000 miles. This is simply because the damping characteristics of the parts gradually deteriorate over time. Call Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck at 319-351-6805 if you have questions about the struts on your car. Our expert technicians will diagnose any problems and help you make an informed decision about repairs.\nAs tires get older, they lose traction and deteriorate from the inside out, increasing the likelihood of a tire bursting. This can cause a rapid loss of control of your vehicle. To have a better performing vehicle, you need to make sure the tires are in good condition. For all your tire needs, contact Dave & Pat Seydel Auto & Truck today.",

        "raw_content": "International Body Music Festival in Bay Area\nAndrew Gilbert Oct. 31, 2013 Updated: Nov. 3, 2013 2:06 a.m.\n1of3The Slammin All-Body Band brings a jazz and R&B vibe to the International Body Music Festival in a reunion concert at Geoffrey's in Oakland.Photo: Evie Ladin\n2of3Innovative Turkish ensemble KeKe\u00c7a will join other international performers at the festival.Photo: Tim Ucingurer\n3of3Keith Terry of Oakland started the Body Music Festival in 2008.Photo: Paul Haggard\nThe Bay Area is known for celebrating the human body in all of its delectable possibilities, so it seems particularly fitting that the region gave birth to the International Body Music Festival.\nStarted in 2008 by Oakland's Keith Terry, the festival showcases a global array of artists steeped in traditional and contemporary musical styles that emanate solely from the human form, encompassing movement, voice, dance, rhythm and sound. It's the percussive chants of Indonesian kecak, the rhythmic thigh slapping of African American hambone and the passionate palmas of flamenco, just for starters.\nRather than simply presenting various strains of body music, the festival has fostered collaborations between artists and traditions that rarely if ever cross paths, transcultural encounters enhanced by the festival's forays to Brazil and Turkey.\nProduced by Crosspulse, the nonprofit educational organization and ensemble that Terry runs with his wife, banjoist, clog dancer and vocalist Evie Laden, the sixth annual International Body Music Festival returns to the Bay Area on Tuesday with a free performance at the Great Wall of Oakland. In a typically expansive undertaking, the event features the aerial dancers of Bandaloop gliding to a live score by the festival's resident body orchestra, Body Tjak 13, which brings together members of Sao Paulo's Barbatuques, Bali's \u00c7udamani and Corposonic, Terry and Laden's sextet drawing on jazz, funk and world music grooves.\n\"I've been hearing a Balinese-Brazilian mix in my head,\" Terry says. \"But I hadn't heard it externally until we started jamming at the last festival in Istanbul, and it was as beautiful outside my head as inside.\"\nRunning in the Bay Area through next Sunday before heading to Boston's Wellesley College and Berklee College of Music, the Body Music Festival is more than its performances, offering school workshops, dance parties, master classes and a collaboration with Youth Radio. The bulk of these events take place in Oakland and Berkeley, but over the weekend the festival settles in to the SFJazz Center, with numerous workshops and a Body Tjak 13 performance on Friday, a \"Hambone Summit\" family matinee on Saturday and an omnibus It's All Body Music concert next Sunday featuring Barbatuques, \u00c7udamani, Greece's Kantu Korpu, Spain's A Mano Limpia, Detroit stepper and body percussionist Khalid Freeman, and San Diego hambone specialist Danny \"Slapjazz\" Barber.\n\"It's beautiful that Keith decided to go to various parts of the world and dig out treasures from various cultures,\" Barber says. \"I make a lot of connections with West Africa, and what happened when slaves were forbidden to use drums here. In hambone, you go from the skin of the drum to the skin of the body. Rhythm is such a powerful form of communication. It's universal, and it's so amazing when you can see people from other countries sharing their stories about what they have and hold dear.\"\nAmong the festival's many highlights is Wednesday's reunion concert at Geoffrey's in Oakland, where the Slammin All-Body Band reunites to celebrate the release of a live DVD. Steeped in jazz and R&B, Slammin weaves together some of California's most soulful improvisers - including vocalists Kenny Washington, Destani Wolf, Zoe Ellis and Bryan Dyer - powered by the body percussion tandem of Terry and beat boxer Steve Hogan.\nWith Terry's creative life devoted in recent years to building the festival, Slammin has moved to the back burner to such an extent that \"this incarnation of the ensemble has never performed at the Body Music Festival,\" Terry says. \"We're framing it as a dance party, and since it's the second show of the evening, it'll also be an after-party with some other artists sitting in.\"\nWednesday's earlier concert at Oakland's First Unitarian Church is one of the festival's most ambitious undertakings. \"The Wedding\" is a celebration that includes the beloved Bay Area all-women Balkan vocal ensemble Kitka, Sacramento's new music percussion trio Rootstock, the Canary Islands of Spain duo A Mano Limpia, and the innovative Turkish ensemble KeKe\u00c7a, with vocalist Sumru A\u00f0iry\u00fcr\u00fcyen and Greek flamenco star Yiota Peklari.\nIn bringing together artists from Turkey and Greece, ancient and deeply enmeshed cultures divided by a good deal of bloody conflict, the concert highlights Terry's conceptualization of body music as a medium to facilitate collaborations among artists who might otherwise never join forces.\nKeKe\u00c7a and Peklari first performed together at an open mike event at the fourth Body Music Festival in San Francisco, singing and playing \"Uskudara gideriken\" a common song with both Greek and Turkish lyrics.\n\"As soon as we met, we started sharing ideas about our way of doing body music, finding many songs from folk traditions that are both Turkish and Greek, where you cannot actually know which is the original,\" KeKe\u00c7a's Ayse Akarsu says in an e-mail.\nKeKe\u00c7a ended up inviting Peklari to Istanbul for the fifth festival, for a project with some Turkish folk dancers at the forefront of a budding artistic movement that seeks to rediscover the shared roots of Turkish and Greek culture.\n\"We share the same sea, waters, lands, food, ancient culture, and we are very similar in many ways,\" Akarsu says. \"We were all curious to find more similarities in our approaches to body music, how we get inspired from our own traditional rhythms, songs, folk culture and arts.\"\nWhile this year's Body Music Festival program is the biggest yet, it also marks the end of the festival's U.S. run for the foreseeable future. After months of contending with confounding State Department bureaucracy, Terry and his team have concluded that it's no longer viable to work on American soil (next year's festival will be in Bali). Despite marshalling powerful allies such as Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Oakland, and Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., the festival struggled to acquire visas.\n\"I've come to that realization that we can't do this here, and that's so disappointing,\" Terry says. \"This is our home, where we started the festival, and we love having it here, but these circumstances make it next to impossible. We still don't have all our visas, and I just found out today that the State Department requested more documentation for the Indonesian group, despite the fact that they've toured many times in the U.S. I just have to laugh it's so ridiculous.\" {sbox}\nFollowing are this week's key events.

The children and youths come from across the Bay Area, and most joined the group with no singing experience.\n\"I wanted to do something with children that no one was doing, which was to create a multiethnic musical group,\" said Annabelle Marie, a singer, musician and mom who founded Voena, which stands for Voices of Eve 'N Angels.\nStanding in a church in Benicia where the group rehearsed last week, Marie added proudly, \"The choir has a no-audition policy. Anyone who has desire gets in.\"\nAfter the brightly costumed children and young adults warmed up their ethereal voices in solfege - singing do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti - Marie moved them into an hour of rehearsing, where undulating movements and expressions were carefully choreographed to the songs.\nWhile the majority of choir members come from counties including Marin, Napa, San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa and Solano, other children travel to the weekly rehearsals in Benicia from as far away as San Luis Obispo and Los Angeles.\nThe group has performed at Carnegie Hall, the White House and major celebrations in China and South Africa.\n\"Voena is about more than singing,\" Marie said, taking a break from rehearsing. \"I really work on them to have self-discipline, self-motivation, to accept challenges and have a strong work ethic.\"\nFor the youths, Voena is about friendship, fun and learning.\n\"It taught me leadership,\" said 18-year-old Austin Kauzer, who started in the group when he was 5. \"I've learned to step up and to lead in the music.\" One of only a handful of boys in the choir, he also has the perfect riposte when any of his male peers give him a hard time for being in a choir.\n\"Say all you want,\" Kauzer replies. \"But are you going to the Olympics?\"\nNine-year-old Athena Ghaoui, who lives in Petaluma, said being in the choir has helped her \"make the right sounds, to control my voice.\" Laughing, she said her voice was \"squeaky\" before she joined Voena.\nKenya Wright, 18, also from Petaluma, said the discipline required for the choir carried over to the classroom.\n\"You learn discipline,\" Wright said. \"You can't be fidgety. You need to look people in the eye. And it translates to every aspect of school.\" Wright wrote about her experience performing with Voena in Durban, South Africa, for her college essay. She applied to a half dozen colleges, from Brown and Barnard to Columbia and Cornell, and was accepted at all. She just started at Brown University.\nNoelle Chow, who is 14 and from Orinda, was transfixed when she saw her first Voena concert.\n\"Voena has taught me to have the right kind of confidence,\" she said. \"Now we get to go to the Olympics. It's going to be something we'll have for the rest of our lives.\"\nAt that, Marie called her choir back to the stage. Called \"Mama Bear\" by the kids, Marie was filled with joy and movement as she directed the songs, including the South African \"Siyahamba\" and the Japanese children's song \"Hotaru Koi.\"\nStepping back to watch the group, Marie whispered, \"Little kids love doing big things. We are all about uniting the world with children's voices. When they are at the Olympics, they will be representing America.\"\nVoena: The Bay Area children's choir will perform Friday along the torch relay path during the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics in London and Saturday at the Main Bandstand in Olympic Park. www.voena.org.\nNBC will broadcast the Opening Ceremony at 7:30 p.m. Friday.\nOpening Saturday at the Legion of Honor: \"Gifts From the Gods: Art and the Olympic Ideal,\" an exhibition that celebrates the Olympian ideal. The show includes ancient Greek and Roman coinage, contemporary work from artists, and a variety of sculptures, works on paper, antiquities and textiles. The exhibition runs through Jan. 27.\nJulian Guthrie is a San Francisco Chronicle staff writer. E-mail: jguthrie@sfchronicle.com",

        "raw_content": "7 Tips to Transition from Your Day Job to Your Own Business\nThe economy is unpredictable and having a backup plan is always a good idea. You can work a successful day job and own a business at the same time.\nIt seems tiring to even comprehend working full time and running a business, but an even balance can be achieved. It is important to remember to schedule your day appropriately and delegate tasks when necessary.\nMaintain Work/Life Balance\nHectic is the first word that often comes to mind when you hear someone speaking about working full time and then going to work at their own business. Maintaining a work/life balance in this type of lifestyle is difficult, but it can be done. Make sure that you have a break between your two positions to ensure that you have time to decompress and change work modes.\nIt is also important to leave the stress of one job at that job and not let it bleed into your personal or business ownership life. Set limits and create a feasible schedule. Remember to stick to the schedule you\u2019ve created as closely as you can to prevent feeling overwhelmed.\nTake Time Off from Everything\nNearly all full-time employees are allowed vacation time. Whether it is paid vacation or not, still take it. Even if you are not planning a trip, take the time off to relax at home and participate in activities that you enjoy. This downtime will help you keep your mind focused and less stressed. Take a vacation from both obligations at one time so that you can fully disconnect and decompress.\nIf you are working a day job, but also want to own and operate a business, make sure it is in an industry that you love. An example here is someone working in the tech industry wanting to also own a tech-related business. Working as a tech device salesperson gives you ideas to start your own business, like the growing sector of charging devices for tech gadgets. The experience that you have gained from working your day job gives you insight to better inform customers in your separate business.\nIt does not matter the industry that you are interested in, just make sure it is one that you truly have a passion for to ensure that you do not get burned out.\nMake your Boss a Client\nIt is said that 54-percent of business owners still work a day job to support themselves their first year in business. You can learn a lot from your boss and if your job is in the same industry as your business, you may be able to make your boss a client. It is not a conflict of interest and may become a long-lasting business relationship. Consider starting off as a consultant. Deliver your sales pitch at the right time and learn how to use the rebuttals you were taught to close the deal.\nWhen you are planning to start your own business while keeping your day job, you need to build a portfolio. As you begin to approach potential clients, they are going to want to know what kind of real industry experience you have. Consider this your resume and the basis of your business. It is important to have a portfolio available both in-print and online. Keep a copy of your portfolio with you at all times, you never know when an opportunity to make a sale may arise.\nBe Clear in your Agenda\nCreating life goals and determining where you want to be and painting the big picture is important. You have to have a goal for your career and your business in order to achieve success in both. Envision how you see your life in 5 years and make adjustments to achieve those short-term goals.\nIdentify the Gap in an Industry\nYour grand idea for a business while still working a day job needs to fill a gap in the industry. If you start a business that is common in your local area, the competition you would have may be too much for a brand new business. The less immediate competition there is, the better chance your business has to survive in the industry.\nYou are going to have a lot of long days keeping a day job and running your own business. Make sure you have time for stress-reduction every day. It does not matter what your method is, but meditating and yoga are ideal options. If you feel yourself getting a bit overwhelmed, take a step back and re-evaluate your priorities. Make adjustments as necessary and maintain your work/life balance.",

        "raw_content": "Understanding Screenwriting #15: Bedtime Stories, Last Chance Harvey, Valkyrie, Waltz with Bashir, & More\nComing Up In This Column: Bedtime Stories, Last Chance Harvey, Valkyrie, Waltz with Bashir, Meet Me In St. Louis, Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, Them!, and Jumper, but first\u2026\nFan Mail: Matt Zoller Seitz, I figured you were kidding about the suggestion of using the Lubitsch line on the DVD box, but I could not resist replying. You are right about the difficulty of getting the right tone across in writing. That\u2019s why we all need great actors to read our lines properly.\nFor Matt Maul, the story of Wise not being told that Klaatu was a Christ figure is from the same Creative Screenwriting article I mentioned. Edmund North had it in his notes, but never bothered to tell Wise. Well, he really didn\u2019t need to know, did he? And if he had known, he might have made it more obvious. Although giving him the human name Carpenter makes it fairly obvious. And Matt, your line that \u201cGiven that Klaatu\u2019s warnings are still basically backed up by his ability to destroy the earth, his admonishments comes across as \u2019stop hurting the planet or we\u2019ll blow it up\u2019\u201d captures the problem with the film more succinctly than I did.\nBedtime Stories (2008. Screenplay by Matt Lopez and Tim Herlihy, story by Matt Lopez. 95 minutes): Also not Lubitsch, but also funny.\nThe first thing you have to know is that I have never been an Adam Sandler fan. For that matter, I have never been much of a fan of any of the man-child comedians. Harry Langdon always struck me as creepy, Jerry Lewis as bizarre, and Will Ferrell as infantile. The only time I liked Sandler was in Punch-Drunk Love, which was an Adam Sandler movie for those who didn\u2019t like Adam Sandler movies. But the trailer for Bedtime Stories, which was probably the best trailer for all the Christmas releases, showed promise. Sandler seemed to be a little more reserved than normal, and the basic idea (a man tells his niece and nephew stories, which sort of come true) seemed to have possibilities. So I took my seven-year old grandson. Noam already loves Keaton and Airplane!, so I figured it was worth a shot.\nWhat the trailer does not tell you is that there is a rather complex main plot, especially for a family film. Lopez and Herlihy set it up with surprising speed and without losing the kids in the audience. Sandler\u2019s Skeeter has been cheated out of taking over his father\u2019s motel, now a hotel. He wants to get the hotel back.\nHis sister insists he babysit her son and daughter while she goes off to Arizona to look for a job, since the school she is principal of is closing. Since Skeeter is the antithesis of a school principal, all he can do is tell them stories (and look how the writers have already set up that he and not his sister is the one who tells stories). The first one is a thinly disguised version, set in the Middle Ages, of his situation at the hotel. The additions the kids make to the story sort of come true, and Skeeter is now determined to make the storytelling help his quest for the hotel. So we have a purpose to telling the stories. As the film progresses, we go from recognizing the real elements in the stories to recognizing the story elements in real life. Not everything comes true in the way we expect. Birnam Wood does not literally come to Dunsinane, but sort of.\nSo, through the magic of CGI, we get the Middle Ages, Ancient Rome, and outer space, and for once the CGI is used to, a) tell the story, and b) tell the jokes. A character made up of snot in the outer space story not only gives us laughs in that story, but then connects with action in the main story. The script is surprisingly focused, with very little that is extraneous, not often true of comedies. Remember the sister\u2019s school? It\u2019s not just a setup.\nThe characterization is also focused, which keeps the actors from going all over the place. Sandler is restrained, but not too restrained. And who should show up in two extended cameos but Rob Schneider. If there is any actor I like less than Sandler it is Schneider, but he\u2019s actually good here. (Don\u2019t let that get around; it will spoil his reputation.) If you have a good script, you can reduce the temptation for the actors to improvise, always a good thing. Because of the variety of stories and time periods, the casting is crucial to the film, since they need actors who can play several different variations on their characters. At first you may think Guy Pearce of Memento is wasted in what seems to be a standard prissy villain role, but stick around until he unleashes, how shall I put this without giving too much away, his inner Hugh Jackman. The female teacher Skeeter gets involved with is played by Keri Russell and it is at least a little more than the standard girlfriend part. She gets a lot to do, and a lot to react to off from Skeeter\u2019s character.\nBedtime Stories is an entertaining comedy, but not a great one. There are a lot of small laughs, but no belly laughs. When I ran my DVD of Keaton\u2019s The Navigator for Noam, he was laughing so hard we had to pause for him to go to the bathroom so he would not pee in his pants. The same thing when we looked at Airplane! He liked Bedtime Stories, but he stayed in his seat the entire film.\nLast Chance Harvey (2008. Screenplay by Joel Hopkins. 92 minutes): O.K. it\u2019s not \u2026 surprise \u2026 Curtis, Linklater, Krizan, Delpy, and Hawke, but it\u2019s charming.\nEmma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman had a couple of scenes together in Stranger Than Fiction and seemed to hit it off professionally, so Thompson was on the lookout for a script they could do together. She mentioned this to Hopkins and he came up with this. That\u2019s the way Thompson has been telling. On the December 28th Charlie Rose show, Hoffman said the script may have been written for them, or it may have been written before and then adjusted for them. He had at least one other version as well. I\u2019d buy Thompson\u2019s version, since Hoffman used to insist that his performance as Stanley Motss in Wag the Dog was not a Robert Evans imitation.\nHowever it happened, the script is a star vehicle for the two of them. I mentioned in US#11 that my wife and I were taken with the trailer, at least partly because of the on-screen chemistry between Hoffman and Thompson. The script does write to their strengths, but it is a little too much in their comfort zone. It is fun to see Thompson play a woman who isn\u2019t quite sure she is going to make a romantic attachment, as she did in Peter\u2019s Friends and Sense and Sensibility. It is also fun to see Hoffman play a guy who can\u2019t quite connect, as he did in The Graduate and Tootsie. But they both have been doing that for a long time. They do it well, which is the reason to see the film, but couldn\u2019t Hopkins have gone around a couple of unexpected corners? I am sure both stars could corner well. And it suggests the scenes are not as strong as they might be when the wordless montages show more chemistry between them than the dialogue scenes.\nHoffman is Harvey, who has come to London for his estranged daughter\u2019s wedding. She wants her stepfather to give her away instead. And he learns he\u2019s lost his job. He and Kate meet, twice actually before they really meet, a nice touch, and walk around London getting to know each other. Ah, just like Richard Linklater and Kim Krizan\u2019s Before Sunrise. Sort of, but more like Linklater, Julie Delpy, and Ethan Hawke\u2019s sequel, Before Sunset. In the latter film, Jesse and Celine are meeting ten years after they have had the fling in the first film, so the characters are older and wiser. So are Harvey and Kate, but Linklater et al dig deeper into the characters. Delpy and Hawke had been thinking about the characters for the intervening ten years and it shows.\nIf you know the geography of London, Harvey and Kate have to have been wearing hiking boots to get from here to there in a couple of scenes. Part of what Hopkins is trying to do is to make London seem as romantic as Paris generally is in movies. But Richard Curtis did that already, especially in Four Weddings and a Funeral. Both films feature extended scenes on the South Bank, but Curtis got there first.\nHopkins also shortchanges the secondary characters, always a potential error in star vehicles. See below for how to avoid the problem. For all the time they spend walking around London, the wedding reception is still going on when Kate convinces Harvey to go back to it. He takes her along. Now think about everything you could do when the shlub of a father suddenly shows up with a woman who looks like Emma Thompson. Sorry, none of that happens. Harvey has a quick line that his ex-wife is giving Kate the eye, but nothing more is done with it. Like the film, the scene is charming, but more could have been done with both.\nValkyrie(2008. Written by Christopher McQuarrie & Nathan Alexander. 120 minutes): No, it\u2019s not Shakespeare, or even Nunnally Johnson, but it\u2019s entertaining.\nIn 1950 Johnson wrote The Desert Fox, a film about German Field Marshall Erwin Rommel. Johnson\u2019s script did not deal with Rommel\u2019s fight against the British in North Africa, but his involvement in the July 20th plot to kill Hitler. Johnson said in the oral history interview I did with him that he thought the material was Shakespearean, \u201cIt is just so good, still so good. It was on a very high level, and I don\u2019t pretend that I got anywhere near the level that it deserved.\u201d He came close, and although the DVD is usually filed in stores in the Action section, it is more of a character study.\nChristopher McQuarrie and Nathan Alexander\u2019s Valkyrie is not so much a character study as it is a suspense and action picture. And they have a big star to deal with as well. The picture opens with a scene in the North African desert where we are introduced to our star character, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg. Some version of the scene was in the script from the beginning, but according to Christopher McQuarrie, the scene kept changing as the film went through production. In view of all the discussion on various blogs and websites about Tom Cruise playing a German with an eyepatch, some of the details of the scene may well have been written in the later revisions to get the audience used to him. The scene starts with von Stauffenberg\u2019s voiceover in German before mutating into English, and the action is set up specifically to show his injuries, especially to his eye. The scene, like the brief opening scene with Cruise at LAX in Collateral, reassures us that we are in the theater where the Tom Cruise movie is playing.\nThat is important because we then get one of the earlier attempts on Hitler\u2019s life, with von Stauffenberg nowhere to be seen, but with at least one of the top British supporting cast, Kenneth Branagh as Major-General von Tresckow. McQuarrie and Alexander do a good job of balancing off the von Stauffenberg scenes with other scenes that tell the plot. Cruise is well cast because it is necessary that von Stauffenberg be completely charismatic and nobody can deliver that like Cruise. His is the star part, he knows it and McQuarrie and Alexander know it. And the supporting Brits know it too and can play variations that bounce off Cruise. Particularly from the mid-eighties on, Cruise has been very smart about surrounding himself with classy older actors, e.g. Newman in The Color of Money and Hoffman in Rain Man. We also get scenes with von Stauffenberg\u2019s wife, but these are very generic. The wife is played by Carice von Houten, and the star of Black Book is wasted.\nAs you would expect from a script that Christopher McQuarrie, the author of The Usual Suspects, was involved with, there are some ingenious twists and turns. (No, Hitler does not turn out to be Keyser S\u00f6ze.) Even if you know the plot is the July 20th plot, you will probably be so caught up in the story that when von Stauffenberg goes to a meeting with Hitler on the 15th you will have forgotten. That attempt does not work out, but it shows us the process, so that shortly thereafter we do not need to see all the lead-in on the 20th. And the attempt on the 20th comes about an hour and ten minutes into the film. You would expect it to come later, with a quick wrap-up afterwards. But here is the inventive part of the script: the attempt fails, which only makes things worse. We, and von Stauffenberg, do not know for a long time whether Hitler has been killed. The rest of the plan goes into effect, but with not all of those Brit supporting actors going along. This ratchets-up the suspense and the action as the plot unravels. The script and the picture, in effect, deliver more than promised, always a good thing.\nWaltz with Bashir(2008. Written by Ari Folman. 90 minutes): Where\u2019s Ward Kimball when you need him?\nIn an interview with Ella Taylor in the LA Weekly Ari Folman, the writer/director of Waltz With Bashir, tells the genesis of the film. A friend of his told him of nightmares he had been having about his experiences in the Israeli army during the 1982 invasion of Lebanon. Folman, who had been there as well, realized he had no memories of the events. Folman began talking and taping others about their memories and working with a therapist to bring out his own memories. Then Folman decided to turn all this into a documentary. People often think the \u201cwriting\u201d of a documentary is just the narration, but as I pointed out in writing about The Order of Myths (US#2), there is much more to it. The most crucial writing element in documentaries is finding the structure. Here it is Folman\u2019s search not only for his own memories, but through the others, finding out what happened when the Israeli army stood by and let the Christian Phalangists massacre Palestinian refugees. So far, so good.\nThen Folman decided to focus on the surreal aspects of his and the others\u2019 dreams. Wait a minute, can you make a surrealist documentary? Does not surrealism seem to be at odds with the very idea of documentary as reality? Yes but. As anyone who has lived through any of the last seventy years or so knows, reality in the world we live in is almost surreal by definition. And even further back, Luis Bu\u00f1uel (of course, who else would you expect?) proved you could make a surrealistic documentary with his 1933 Las Hurdes (Land Without Bread). It is all in how you put together the realistic details. So, so far, still so good.\nThen Folman decided he wanted to make it an animated documentary. Wait a minute, can you make an animated documentary? Does not animation seem to be at odds with, well, you get the idea. But animation has been used in documentaries from the beginning. There are slightly animated maps in the first documentary feature, Nanook of the North, in 1922, and Walt Disney did some great propaganda animation for the Frank Capra World War II series Why We Fight. But a documentary that is totally animated? Well, yes, Disney again, with his 1943 Victory Through Air Power, where he uses animation to give us concepts and ideas that you cannot literally show, such as the size of 1943\u2019s aircraft by showing the Wright Brothers plane recreating its original flight on the wing of an airborne B-19.\nYeah, fine, but still \u2026 a surrealist, animated documentary? Disney again, although most of the credit goes to one of his genius animators, Ward Kimball. Kimball got the call from Disney to do the Tomorrowland films for the fifties television series Disneyland. For the 1957 episode \u201cMars and Beyond,\u201d Kimball\u2019s team talked to scientists about what life on Mars might be like. Then the team went across the street from the studio, got drunk on stingers, came back to the studio, drew up the weirdest things they could conjure out of what the scientists said. Then they went home, slept it off, and came back a couple of days later and animated the sequence. Voila, a surrealist animated documentary. (The backstory is from a visit Kimball made to my documentary class at LACC in the seventies.)\nSo how does Folman and Waltz With Bashir stack up against Kimball and \u201cMars and Beyond\u201d? Not well, unfortunately. The first problem is that Folman and his animator Yoni Goldman have animated the interviews. Folman is insistent that his process is not the same as Rotoscoping, since the animation team does trace over the live action interview material, but uses that material as a guide. Either way, we lose an enormous amount of the facial expression of emotions that we would get in live action. The idea may have been to give us a little distance from the speakers, but there is too much distance. Think of some of the documentaries you have seen where interviews and emotions are at the heart of the story, such as Roger & Me or Paris is Burning. Norma Desmond was partially right; they had faces, along with the dialogue.\nToo much time is taken up with the interviews, and the recreations of the action the men talk about get visually repetitive as well. Since one of Folman\u2019s ideas was that animation can deal with the surreal elements of the dreams and the events, it is especially disheartening that the dreams are not MORE surreal. Granted he does not have the Disney studio structure behind him, but he and Goldman could have been more visually inventive.\nThe final structural choice is an odd one. At the very end, Folman cuts to live action television footage of the actual victims of the massacre. Since he has brought us into the world in a completely animated way, it is a disconnect to go to live action. I think his idea was probably to remind us that this all was real, but it has the effect of making us suspect Folman did not trust his own film.\nMeet Me in St. Louis(1944. Screenplay by Irving Brecher & Fred Finklehoffe, based on the stories by Sally Benson. 113 minutes): Why are all Christmas movies deranged?\nTurner Classic Movies ran this one on Christmas Eve, I suppose because it\u2019s the one where Judy Garland sings \u201cHave Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.\u201d While the film is not as bizarre as Capra\u2019s film noir Christmas classic It\u2019s A Wonderful Life, it is strange enough.\nThe cute, adorable daughter, Tootie (played by Margaret O\u2019Brien, of whom her occasional co-star Lionel Barrymore is reported to have said, \u201cIf that child had been born in the Middle Ages, she would have been burned as a witch\u201d) is obsessed with death. She is constantly planning to kill off her dolls and give them elaborate funerals. I suppose that may come from the fact that her mother is played by Mary Astor, who only a few years before was Brigid O\u2019Shaughnessy in The Maltese Falcon.\nThat\u2019s weird enough, but the plot, which the writers take almost half of the film to get around to, is that the father has an offer of a job in New York. He wants to move, but the family is resistant. Resistant is hardly the word; they are closer to psychotic about the idea of leaving St. Louis. Now I am a Midwesterner by birth and have, as you may have read here, certain reservations about the East Coast, but the wife and children here seem to be determined to avoid anything that would in any way expose them to a wider world. I suspect that this film was the hit it was in 1944 and 45 because people felt that way at the end of World War II. They just wanted to go/stay home and be left alone.\nFort Apache (1948. Screenplay by Frank S. Nugent, based on the story \u201cMassacre\u201d by James Warner Belllah. 127 minutes) and She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949. Screenplay by Frank S. Nugent and Laurence Stallings, based on the story \u201cWar Party\u201d by James Warner Bellah. 103 minutes): As a jobbing film historian and western fan, I feel obligated to check in occasionally with the Ford cavalry trilogy.\nThese first two films of the trilogy popped up on cable recently and I was struck yet again by how sloppy Ford let scripts be when he did not have a strong producer like Samuel Goldwyn or Darryl Zanuck to guide the scriptwriting process. In the case of Fort Apache, Ford had Nugent, a first-time screenwriter who had been a film critic for The New York Times, put in so much comedy \u201crelief\u201d that critic James Agee noted \u201cthere is enough Irish comedy to make me wish Cromwell had done a more thorough job.\u201d Ford thought that comedy was one of his strong suits, but it wasn\u2019t. The drunken sergeants scenes stop the picture in all the wrong ways. At least on DVD or DVR you can fast forward through them.\nThe drunken sergeant is reduced to one in Yellow Ribbon and is not as obnoxious. The problem with this script is the last half hour, which is incoherent on a dramatic level. Captain Nathan Brittles is due to retire, and he goes out on one last scouting party. He returns and says goodbye to his troop. They give him a watch, a nice emotional scene. Fine, \u201cthe end\u201d as the troop rides off without him? Not quite. After Brittles has the drunken sergeant put in the brig for being out of uniform (Brittles has given him his civilian retirement suit), Brittles says goodbye to the women at the fort. O.K., \u201cthe end\u201d \u2026 not yet. The Indians are getting ready to drive the white men out and who shows up at the troop\u2019s location? Brittles, still in uniform, claiming that his new watch says he is still on active duty until midnight. Brittles talks to the Indian chief to try to convince him to stop the attack. The chief says he can\u2019t since the young braves want to go to war. Brittles runs off the Indians\u2019 horses, stopping the attack. Now it is past midnight and he is a civilian. He is riding off into the west. \u201cThe end?\u201d Not a chance. Sgt. Tyree comes after him to tell him his request to become a civilian scout for the Army, which has not mentioned before, has come through. So Brittles returns to the fort where, it being a John Ford movie, there is a dance going on. And then Brittles goes out to the grave of his wife to talk to her. Finally, \u201cthe end.\u201d How could you do all that in a more coherent way?\nThem! (1954. Screenplay by Ted Sherdeman, adaptation by Russell S. Hughes of a story by George Worthington Yates. 94 minutes) and Jumper(2007. Screenplay by David S. Goyer and Jim Uhls and Simon Kinberg, based on a novel by Steven Gould. 88 minutes): A highly informative double feature.\nAfter writing about The Day the Earth Stood Still in the last column (US#14), the differences between fifties\u2019 sci-fi and current sci-fi was floating around in my head. Them! popped up on Turner Classic Movies, so I gave it a look. Like the earlier Earth Stood Still, it begins in an almost documentary fashion. Two New Mexico Highway Patrolmen discover a little girl in shock, the remains of her parents\u2019 trailer, and a roadside store that has been ransacked. Lots of questions are set up, and we don\u2019t see the GIANT ANTS until almost half an hour into the picture. There is not only one scientist, but his attractive daughter is also a scientist. They give us a more or less buy-the-premise-buy-the-bit explanation: the rules of the world of the film are established and then stuck to. The writers have beautifully taken advantage of the desert locations and, more famously, the storm drains of Los Angeles. They have also given us some interesting characters, particularly a civilian pilot being held in a psych ward and a drunk who may or may not have seen something.\nThe same day I saw Them! I later caught Jumper on HBO. No restraint here. David Rice discovers he is a \u201cjumper,\u201d meaning he can jump from place to place. As in from New York to England. He discovers this ability when he is a teenage boy and runs away from home. So what does he do with his gift? He jumps into banks and steals money. He jumps to London, seduces a girl, then jumps out of the room. In other words, he behaves like a stupid teenager. Even after he has gotten older. Is that the best the novelist and three screenwriters could come up with him to do?\nHe eventually goes back to his home town and reconnects with the girl he had a crush on. He remembers she wanted to travel, so he asks her to go to Rome with him (on a plane, not through his jumping). How does she react to this proposition? She goes with him without a second thought. Wouldn\u2019t you have a second thought if a geek from high school suddenly showed up and offered to take you to Rome? The daughter-scientist in Them! does do a certain amount of screaming, but she does seem to have some intelligence and character. This girl has neither.\nSo off they go to Rome and into the Colosseum. The Colosseum is used moderately well, but the rest of the picture jumps all over the world, given us postcard views, but never using the locations as well as Them! uses the few it has. The director, Doug Liman, is one of those indie directors (Swingers and Go) who have moved into big studio films. He did a knockout job on The Bourne Identity, and he seems to assume here that if he jumped around a lot in that film, he can do it here. The difference is that Bourne Identity had a great story and a great character. David is just a typical teenager, even in his twenties, and the rules of the jumpers\u2019 world are constantly changing. Unlike the \u201crules\u201d about the ants in Them!, David is being chased by one \u201cPaladin,\u201d and sometimes, depending on what they need for the scene, several, who are determined to kill him. If David\u2019s life is a teen fantasy, then the Paladins are the equivalent of the grownups. Since David is doing a lot that is illegal, I was rooting for the Paladins to kill him.\nDid I mention this is simply conceived as fantasy/nightmare for teen boys? David\u2019s mom has left the family years before, and he has to deal with a difficult father. If only his mom had not run off. Boo-hoo. But when David and the girl are arrested by the Italian police, who suddenly comes through the door but Mom, telling him to ditch the girl and jump out of the situation. We later learn that Mom is a Paladin and left so she wouldn\u2019t have to kill her own son. Now THAT would have been an interesting movie.\nRelated Topics:Bedtime Storiesfort apachejumperlast chance harveymeet me in st. louisshe wore a yellow ribbonthemunderstanding screenwritingvalkyriewaltz with bashir\nReview: Bride Wars\n15 Greatest Madonna Non-Singles\nThe Walking Dead Recap: Season 5, Episode 10, \u201cThem\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Indra Nooyi reveals seven qualities for leaders in the 21st century\nPepsiCo President and CEO Indra Nooyi Photo credit: Facebook: Indra Nooyi\nChairman and CEO of PepsiCo Indra Nooyi spoke during the Tate Lecture at McFarlin Auditorium April 4.\nIn her lecture, Nooyi outlined her seven lessons for running a company in the 21st century. She also cites these lessons as being seven values of a great leader. With these values that Nooyi holds to PepsiCo, she has seen ultimate success.\n1. The need for a vision\nSince Nooyi took the reins of PepsiCo, she changed the company to fit the current millennium with a vision of \u201cperformance with purpose.\u201d\n\u201cI believed we needed to give a new sense of meaning, a new sense of purpose to the work we did every day,\u201d Nooyi said. \u201c\u2019Performance with purpose\u2019 was not a corporate social responsibility initiative. It was to fundamentally change the way we make money.\u201d\nHaving grown up in India, Nooyi said she \u201chad seen how international corporations could be either a force for good or a force for bad in society.\u201d Her upbringing in India was also inspiration for her seven lessons.\n2. Nobody can take our place in our families\nIt was 2006 and Nooyi had just received a call from her boss at PepsiCo that she would be the new President and head of the world\u2019s second largest food and beverage company. She was on her way home at 10 p.m. and was excited to share the news with her family.\nHer mother, visiting from India, Nooyi\u2019s home, was standing at the door waiting for her daughter, but only to ask Nooyi to run to the store for milk, not giving Nooyi a chance to tell her the good news.\nWhen she returned from the store, Nooyi was finally able to tell her mother the good news. \u201cOkay, I had great news to share with you. I\u2019ve been named Chairman of PepsiCo and all that you wanted me to do was to go out and get the milk,\u201d Nooyi said.\n\u201c[My mother] looked at me and said, \u2018Let me explain something to you. You may be the CEO of PepsiCo, you may be king, I don\u2019t care. When you step into this house, you\u2019re the wife and the mother first. Nobody can take that place. So when you walk in the door, leave your crown in the garage,\u2019\u201d Nooyi remembered.\n3. People are everything\nThe first time she went home to India in 2007 after being promoted, Nooyi recalled an experience in which her success was not the focus of attention, rather, people recognized her upbringing.\nMany people showed up to her house, saying hello to Nooyi before turning to her mother and saying, \u201cYou did such a good job with your daughter.\u201d\n\u201cI realized then that they didn\u2019t care about me,\u201d Nooyi said. \u201cI was just a prop.\u201d\nThough Nooyi used \u201cprop\u201d in a pejorative, jesting tone, it nonetheless taught her a lesson on the importance of people, specifically the importance of family.\n\u201cI have just one request of [the audience],\u201d Nooyi said. \u201cTry writing to the parents of your executives \u2026 write and tell them how awesome it is to have the gift of their child at your company.\u201d\n\u201cAnd let me tell you one thing \u2014 the impact of these letters has been more powerful than anything I\u2019ve imagined, and they\u2019ve led to some of the most meaningful, heartwarming experiences I\u2019ve had,\u201d Nooyi said.\nIt is through this appeal to the heart that Nooyi found a lesson in doing business: you can\u2019t just appeal to people\u2019s heads. You must appeal to all parts of them, most importantly, their hearts.\nAs Nooyi puts it, \u201cpeople are everything.\u201d For a business setting, that means, \u201cwithout a good team, you\u2019re nothing.\u201d\n4. You have to keep learning\nIt\u2019s fitting that another one of her lessons was, \u201cyou have to keep learning.\u201d\n\u201cAmong the leadership qualities that I\u2019ve been trying to model is being a lifelong student,\u201d Nooyi said.\nRecently, that includes reading Big Data for Dummies.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the last time that I thought I was a dummy,\u201d Nooyi jested. \u201cBelieve me, it is pretty dang complex.\u201d\nLearning as much as she can also includes another vital skill \u2013 listening.\n5. The most important part of persuasion is listening\n\u201cIt\u2019s the most important part of persuasion,\u201d Nooyi said. \u201cI have not always been good at this.\u201d\nBut the relentless struggle, even if it is relentless, isn\u2019t without return.\n\u201cI\u2019ve been better for it as a CEO and as a person,\u201d Nooyi said of learning how to listen. \u201cThe best advice \u2026 comes from the most unusual sources, outside of the company, when you least expect it.\u201d\n6. Think hard about time\nNooyi\u2019s time at Pepsi is also marked with the objective of duration. For shareholders, that means focusing, \u201cnot just on the level of returns, but duration of returns,\u201d she said.\nThe objective is to build a company that goes on forever, that stands the test of time.\n\u201cWhere would we be now as a country if more corporations were focused on duration as they are on the level of returns?\u201d Nooyi asked. That, she said, is the larger question.\n\u201cWould we have seen so much volatility, as much of a turn as we\u2019ve seen in the S&P 500 as we\u2019ve seen in recent decades? Would we have a bigger manufacturing base in our country? Would we be seeing the same levels of inequality in parts of the country?\u201d Nooyi asked.\nThough humbly she responded, \u201cI don\u2019t know. I can\u2019t say for sure.\u201d\nBut it is with this thinking and these existential questions that she has taken to heart the concept of duration, with courage.\nThe courageous part, she said it herself: \u201cHow do you convince the seekers of short-term gratification that a corporation should be something that endures?\u201d\n7. The power of persuasion\nThe power of persuasion was another of Nooyi\u2019s lessons.\nConvincing shareholders is just one party to whom she spends her job convincing. Yet, no matter the audience or subject, \u201cwe didn\u2019t leave our values,\u201d she said. \u201cWe doubled down on them.\u201d\nThese seven lessons translate into taking a more holistic purpose when it comes to business and making money \u2013 a facet capitalism often overlooks.\n\u201cI\u2019m a devout believer in capitalist society, because capitalism is a glorious thing,\u201d Nooyi said. \u201cIt has created more wealth, lifted more people out of poverty, and produced more creativity and ingenuity than any other system here in history.\u201d\n\u201cBut I\u2019ve also come to the belief that we need to hustle in a more sustainable, more inclusive form of capitalism,\u201d she said.\nThe classic form misses a part of the dichotomy, the part that makes a difference.\nLike capitalism, there is room to grow. And as individuals and Americans, there is room for us to grow, too.\nPosted on April 13, 2017 by Lili Johnston\n#Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo, Tate Lecture series\nThomas Friedman emphasizes resilience in an age of acceleration\nJon Meacham Urges Rediscovery of Center in Tate Lecture\nFormer White House Chief of Staff James Baker III, former CIA director Leon Panetta call for bipartisanship at Tate Lecture\nM*A*S*H star Alan Alda explains meaning of life",

It\u2019s so far unknown how this could possibly work with other window films, such as bomb blast protection film and others.",

They related positive images of Israel and underscored an existential need to defend it.\nSome talked about how their perceptions of Israel stemmed from their families and the broader Jewish community in the U.S. All of the interviews were conducted over the phone with current or veteran soldiers who were either in Israel or the U.S.\n\"My parents and everyone else talked about there being very little chance of peace in Israel because no matter what is given to the Palestinians, they will request more and will not rest until Israel is not on the map\" another lone soldier, a combat commander in his 20s from Illinois, said.\nOthers said they did not have an extensive grasp of Israel's history and the conflict with Palestinians before enlisting.\n\"I really did not know anything about Israeli history - how this place was founded, what happened, what was really going in the conflict - apart from random news pieces,\" said Rachael, a 25-year-old combat researcher from New York. \"I really hate reading the news.\"\nDespite having no family in Israel, and most of them without any functional knowledge of Hebrew upon entry, the number of Lone Soldiers in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) is growing. Since 2013, new immigrant recruits have been increasing between 5 and 10 percent each year. Last year more than 1,200 enlisted. Currently 2,800 foreign nationals serve in the Israeli military, of whom 25 percent are from the U.S.\nComment: It's no surprise that individuals 'of like mind' would be drawn towards Israel, and it's also no surprise that the largest percentile of these come from the US.\nTypes of Lone Soldiers\nLone Soldiers are, \"a lot more 'run at em' type... they have that fire...\" Yosef said, hesitating to add that he's not sure if this \"fire\" has to do with a specifically American attribute or if these young fighters are just excited about serving in the Israeli military. \"But you see a little bit of that, I don't know, spark of crazy.\"\nYosef is from New York, but today in Israel he serves as a combat soldier. He said he initially moved to escape his family life in the U.S. \"A lot of Lone Soldiers will tell you either that [they] wanted something meaningful to them or that they wanted to get away from America.\"\nWhile enlisted, Yosef interacted with other Lone Soldiers. There are a few in his army unit and he met more from the many Lone Soldier support groups, like the Lone Soldier Center.\nYosef explained, there are three broad categorizations of young people from abroad who chose to enlist in Israel: \"Type A\" he said are purely motivated by Zionism. They are not running from turmoil in their home countries and personal lives. This type of soldier is, \"just coming to Israel to draft because he thinks that it's the right thing to do,\" he said.\nThe second, \"Type B,\" Yosef continued, are soldiers who have problems in their home lives and they \"kind of like Israel.\" To them, enlisting \"sounds like a really cool experience.\" This is more of a \"why not?\" group and Yosef said this classification applies to him.\n\"Then there's 'Type C' which is like, 'I'm crazy and I kind of just want to go shoot some stuff,'\" Yosef stated bluntly.\nComment: In this case, you'll find that most in all three types are really there for that reason.\nFeeding into stereotypical narratives\nMordechai, a 26-year-old veteran Lone Soldier from Ohio, joined the IDF in 2012. His decision was made back when he was eight years old and visited Israel, which happened to be during the second Intifada. An experience of being in Jerusalem the same day a bomb went off in the city convinced him Israel needed defending.\nWhen asked who Israel needed defending from, he said, \"I think that every person who calls himself a Palestinian is making themselves an enemy of Israel.\"\nWhen asked the same question Yosef spoke of threats from the Arab world. \"These are people that their idea of a peaceful country is something else.\"\n\"These are the countries that surround Israel. These are the countries that Israel deals with on a daily basis,\" he said, adding Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, and the only Middle Eastern country where its citizens have equality.\nComment: If Israeli citizens have equality, why are they treating Israeli Palestinians as second citizens?\nIsrael's new Jewish Nation State law, a reaction to Palestinian demands for equality - Ben White\nNot giving up without a fight\nLone Soldiers gained notoriety about a decade ago when Michael Levin, a 22-year-old paratrooper from Philadelphia, was killed in combat in Aita al-Shaab in southern Lebanon in the 2006 Lebanon War. His death initiated the creation of the Lone Soldier Center in 2009, an Israeli non-profit organization focused on supporting Lone Soldiers during their service.\nMore recently, during the war on Gaza in 2014, a Lone Soldier from Los Angeles, Max Steinberg, was killed in Gaza while serving in the Golani brigade. Although he was initially rejected from the elite unit his mother, Evelyn Steinberg, explained at a Memorial Day ceremony in Jerusalem earlier this year that he was persistent. She said that when a recruitment officer asked him what other unit he wanted to enlist in, he said \"nothing,\" adding, \"stop asking me the same thing. Send me home or send me to jail.\"\nApparently it isn't always easy to just up and join the military, but for American Lone Soldiers who have their heart set on fighting in a particular unit they don't give up so easily. \"A Golani warrior he became,\" Evelyn Steinberg said of her late son.\nAnother Lone Soldier from the U.S., Rachel, also experienced difficulty in getting accepted into the military, for being \"old,\" she said. She was 24 when she enlisted and signed up for duty, the day after her plane landed in Tel Aviv. When she went to the recruitment office she was immediately turned away. She said, the \"18- or 19-year-old in charge of processing immigrants laughed at me and said, 'no, I know what your college is - what what are you doing with your life? Go home, don't waste your time here.'\"\nUndeterred every single day for the next month she went back, putting notes on the cars of the head officers and waiting for them to enter the office. \"I was the famous crazy American there.\"\nActing on misconceptions\nIn a mini-documentary about Lone Soldiers produced by the teen Israel advocacy group Write on for Israel, Retired Israeli Defense Forces Lt. Col. Mikey Hartman, Founder of the IDF Shooting School and retired Lieutenant Colonel, explains how he decided to join the Israeli military. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Hartman reminiscences about enlisting after watching an action film when he was in high school.\n\"I think it was the 10th grade. I saw a movie on TV called Raid on Entebbe,\" Hartman said with a slight glimmer in his eye. \"And this was great stuff. There's heroes running and saving hostages. Seeing that, I said 'That - I want to be that. I want to be a hero. I want to be a sniper in the Israeli army.\"\nComment: BARF.\nThe appeal of becoming a Lone Soldier, \"also comes from a little bit of a misconception of what the Israeli army is,\" Yosef, the lone soldier admits. Young Americans hear about the strength and prestige of the Israeli army and think it will be fun to go to war - to do something with their lives, he relates.\nSome want to reenact a movie or video game. An 18-year-old American might think, \"'Oh, I'm gonna go to war and I'm gonna shoot this and I'm gonna play Call of Duty,'\" Yosef mimicked. \"And then you get to Israel and then all of a sudden you realize that it's not that. It's real.\"\nAccording to Dr. Dana Grosswirth Kachtan of the Sociology and Political Science departments at Open University, Israel, \"The way that the Israeli military is conceived in the world, it [is] still regarded as a very unique and strong and competent military, so to be a part of this can be very appealing.\"\nKachtan's research focuses on the construction of military identity, specifically the combat soldier identity. Through her research she found an intersection between the organizational culture of the military brigades, ethnicity and masculinity.\nAccording to Kachtan, military is still one of the main organizations in constructing masculinity. Kachtan explained that the discourse in Israeli society reinforces the strong and masculine concepts linked to the military. Israeli society perceives itself as better in part due to its \"unique\" military experience, even though there is a decline in the military status and rise in criticism in society, she added.\nAnd Israelis thus perceive themselves as more mature and better equipped to start their lives than Americans - who \"finish high school and they are going to college and they party... and they do not know what it means to experience something hard,\" she said, \"They didn't go through this experience so they don't know - their personality and their identity isn't as strong as the Israeli's personality and identity.\"\nKachtan believes that this type of discourse has an affect on Americans who decided to join the Israeli military. \"I believe that the United States disappointed them to some point.\"\nBut the Israeli military service disappoints them after they are discharged, too, she pointed out.\nThis year the Lone Soldier Center stated that nearly half of all Lone Soldiers end up leaving Israel after their service. Despite the plethora of reasons young Americans leave their lives behind to join the military, Yosef explained, many decide somewhere down the line of their service that going home sounds much more appealing than staying in Israel.\nForeign fighters flocking to Middle East to wage jihad, for Israel\nGo in the army, meet interesting people, and kill them!",

        "raw_content": "South Central Sheltered Workshop, originally located at 1827 W. MacArthur, was originally affiliated with Shawnee Assoc. of Retarded Citizens in the year 1981. On September 12, 1981, a meeting was held to become a nonprofit organization with the purpose of providing vocational training to individuals for competitive jobs in the Shawnee community and for the Tecumseh School to be the primary workshop location. The agency originally served twenty-two individuals. On October 5, 1981, South Central Sheltered Workshop was awarded its first work contract to produce survey flags for the State of Oklahoma's Department of Transportation. In May 1985, South Central Sheltered Workshop moved to 1221 North McKinley to a building donated by Don Bodard and Paul Hale. South Central remained at this location until September 1990 when it moved to its present location at 130 North Louisa.\nThe agency has since purchased the following properties: 100, 120, 126 and 204 N. Louisa and 419 W. 9th for vocational purposes and 314 and 301 W 9th for residential group homes. South Central Sheltered Workshop became South Central Industries, Inc. in 1996. The name change was made to remove \u201cSheltered Workshop\u201d which was now seen as politically incorrect terminology. South Central began receiving funding from the State of Oklahoma to provide vocational training in 1984. South Central Industries, Inc. now provides services to over fifty individuals with a staff of twenty five to assist with one-on-one and small group needs. Through nine separate contracts with the State of Oklahoma and private business contracts, South Central has been able to diversify its job offerings to include city beautification, janitorial, lawn care, pallet construction, product offerings, volunteer opportunities with the Community Market, SPAR and Meals on Wheels and self-enrichment programs through the Sr. Center and Blue Zones. South Central strives to meet its clients' needs vocationally, residentially and socially.",

        "raw_content": "Every collector and enthusiast has a \u2018dream collectible item\u2019 that can redefine a collection, or change how the art of collecting will be seen. And in the world of philately, one of the more rare and treasured item for collection is the British Guiana (1856), generally considered as one of the most important and expensive piece of stamp in the world right now. Measuring 2.5 centimetres by 3.2 centimetres, this miniature piece of paper has become an iconic member of the world of philately, even motivating experienced and established stamp collectors to snap the stamp for nearly $10 million US dollars. The offer by a stamp enthusiast isn\u2019t an aberration- according to Sotheby\u2019s, this rare stamp is the most expensive and rarest in the bunch and it is expected that this will fetch nearly $20 million in the next few years. Another interesting fact about this stamp is that only a privilege few enthusiasts have seen the stamp in person, even though the British Guiana has been the subject of widespread rumours, wild stories and speculations. While this stamp has been reclusive lately, well there\u2019s interesting news that will surely catch the fancy of stamp collectors and members of philately circles. This valuable item is now on display at the Smithsonian and will be in full view for the next two years.\nTracking the Value of British Guiana Stamp\nSo what\u2019s the excitement behind this small piece of paper? Understanding this stamp requires the stamp collector to travel in time to Guyana, a South American company and British colony formerly called British Guiana. It was in 1855 when the story of the stamp began when a postmaster received 5,000 stamps, which was way below the expected 50,000 stamps. Since additional stamps will only be delivered after so many weeks, the creative postmaster ordered for the printing of temporary one-cent and four-cent postage stamps. Cheaper versions were used to send out daily papers, and the more expensive ones were for letters.\nThe presence of the one-cent magenta postage stamp has been linked to Vernon Vaughan, where he decided to take the stamp as a nice add-on to his collection in 1873. Ownership of this treasured stamp changed hands in the next few years, and was even sold for more than $900,000 in 1980 to the DuPont\u2019s heir. His estate then turned over the item to Sotheby\u2019s for public auction, and when verified for its authenticity, it was decided that the stamp will be shown to the public. Experts suggest that the public showing of the item will help put back the focus on philately and the art of collecting.\nBritish Guiana 1c Magenta Sells for $7.9 million\nThe Mona Lisa of Stamp Collecting - Rediscovering the British Guiana-One Cent Magenta",

        "raw_content": "Personal Injury /Dog Bites\nDog Bite Attorney in Houston\nContact An Experienced Personal Injury Law Firm Today!\nThe CDC estimates that there are more than 4.5 million dog bite victims in the United States every year. Dog bites can cause victims severe pain and disfigurement, and in the worst cases, they can even be fatal. Negligent owners who do not control their pets can face civil liability in Texas. While these cases can vary considerably depending on the situation, a dog owner's negligence or carelessness must be proven in order for a personal injury claim to be successful.\nThis means that the following elements must be established in a dog bite case:\nThe defendant is the owner of the dog who caused the injury\nThe owner owed a duty to prevent the dog from injuring others\nThe owner failed to exercise reasonable care\nThe owner's failure resulted in another's injury\nUnderstanding Texas Dog Bite Laws\nTexas adheres to the \u201cone bite rule\u201d and \u201ccommon law strict liability\u201d when it comes to handling dog bite cases. Ultimately, if a person chooses to keep a dangerous dog on their property, they are legally allowed to do so, but they can be held liable for any damage the dog causes pursuant to Texas Health and Safety Code \u00a7822.\nUnder the \u201cone bite rule,\u201d victims can pursue compensation from the owner of the dog owner if the owner was aware that the dog previously bit someone or acted like it wanted to. Unfortunately, dog owners can attempt to shield themselves from liability by claiming that they did not know about the dog\u2019s tendencies.\nThere are several laws that can be used when compiling successful dog bite injury claims. Texas recently adopted a statewide law that can subject owners to criminal charges in the event of fatal or serious dog bite injuries. In addition, there are also various leash laws and dangerous dog laws that can hold bearing on your claim. For example, a dog owner can be accused of \u201cnegligence per se\u201d if they failed to abide by animal control laws (such as keeping their dogs leashed in public places) and their dog ran loose and caused someone injury.\nA Houston dog bite attorney may be able to help you get compensation for:\nPhysical & emotional pain & suffering\nTexas has a two-year statute of limitations for bringing a personal injury suit for a dog bite, after which a dog bite victim will no longer have legal recourse. It is therefore crucial that dog bite victims take action and seek legal counsel promptly.\nHandling Complex Animal Attack Cases in Houston, TX\nWith more than 150 years of combined experience, Stern Law Group is capable of handling complex and difficult cases. As claims concerning dog bites pose liability difficulties, involve conflicting and insubstantial legislation, and include other complications, it is essential that you allow a qualified attorney from our firm to handle your claim.\nFurthermore, many of these cases are complicated by the fact that some victims may be friends of the dog owner. It is important to know that these claims are filed against a person's insurance provider and that, with an attorney working on your behalf, you can alleviate many of these worries.\nContact Stern Law Group to discuss your dog bite accident.",

        "raw_content": "Sometimes it is hard to tell from reading a website what a\nconsultant actually does. Here are a few examples of the kinds\n\u200bof questions we have helped clients answer.\nHow can we ensure a smooth CEO transition in 3 years time? We helped the board answer this question by doing a comprehensive review that looked at the issue of CEO succession holistically. What is the governance model and practices to support succession planning for the CEO? Who plays a key role in planning for and executing CEO succession? What human resources systems and processes are in place that ensure the organization is identifying and developing potential successors? What aspects of the strategy, structure and culture might facilitate or inhibit succession? What is the motivation and capability of key leaders to support candidate development? What helps and what hinders the ability of potential candidates to get ready? We provided the board with succinct, candid insights into what is facilitating, and what is inhibiting, CEO succession planning and what they can do to help increase the likelihood of a smooth transition.\nHow do we help our newly promoted executive be successful? We helped a newly promoted senior executive plan and execute his transition by gathering candid feedback from key stakeholders. We gave him insight into the perceptions others held around his strengths and weaknesses, what different stakeholder groups were expecting from him, what relationships he needed to build or re-contract, and the areas of his business where he needed to focus on first in order to deliver early wins. We helped him identify things he could do in the short term to successfully manage his transition, areas of growth he needs to tackle in the medium-term to operate at his new level, and long-term areas of development that will set him up for success in the future.\nHow can we ensure we are selecting the best person for the job? We helped an organization upgrade its selection process to ensure their system is fair, transparent and maximizes their ability to put the best candidate in a job. By reviewing their existing process and tools and developing an understanding of their unique context, we were able to provide them with concrete, practical and cost-effective recommendations on what they could tweak to build on their strong foundation, and what they could add to raise their game.\nHow can we shift from being a group of strong individual performers to acting as a cohesive team? We helped a dynamic and diverse group of people map out a path toward operating as a more cohesive team. We did this by facilitating work that had them sharing, discovering and aligning around common objectives, recognizing the strengths and challenges of diversity, wrestling with perceptions and mis-perceptions they have of each other, and establishing shared expectations around team actions and partnerships.\n\ufeffHow do I get my board's support around the structure and people changes I want to make? We helped a new CEO craft her key messages and supporting rationale in order to get support for the significant changes she wanted to make. We helped her get clarity on the why, the who, the how, and the when. We helped her think through what each board member needed in order to feel comfortable with the new direction. Together we anticipated potential questions and areas of resistance and helped her prepare to address those so she was able to present her position clearly and confidently.\nHow do we get everyone aligned and engaged in our new strategic plan? We designed a day-long employee offsite for a large not-for-profit around three key objectives: a) share the strategy with all employees, b) help each person see where they fit in fulfilling the organization's mission, and c) gain insight and understanding into how we all need to work together to make our dreams a reality. A fast-paced, highly interactive day helped team members connect to each other and the strategy. Everyone left energized and grateful to be working together in service to others.\nHow can we transfer and retain business-critical expertise before our baby boomers retire? We were contracted by The Asia Pacific Gateway Skills Table to dig in and deeply understand how firms can effectively engage in critical knowledge transfer. The result of this year-long project is a critical knowledge transfer Resource Guide that provides Human Resource Practioners with a knowledge transfer model, guidelines and recommendations they can apply in their organization. You can download a copy of the resource guide here.\nHow can we advance the ability of our leaders to be more effective influencers? Being able to influence those around us without the formal authority to direct is one of the most critical leadership skills, whether you are a middle manager or the Chair of a board of directors. To help one organization raise its collective game, we designed a half-day workshop that incorporated the Myers-Briggs and a formal model of influence that can be applied in any situation. Participants gained new insights into themselves and their preferred approach to influence and being influenced, and insight into how people with different styles want to be influenced. The result, a more strategic approach to persuading others and less head-banging.",

        "raw_content": "Can I stop the father seeing our child?\nI don't want to go to court, but we can't agree on anything regarding the children. How can we move forward?\nWhat rights do I have as a father?\nMy child\u2019s mother wants to move to another country with our children. I don't want them to go. What can I do?\nHow does the Judge decide what is best?\nThe law states that a child should be able to have a relationship with both parents as long as it is safe and in their best interests. If you have concerns about your child having contact with the father or mother, you should try to discuss these concerns with the other parent to see whether an amicable agreement can be reached. If this is not possible, subject to there not being a Court order in place, you can stop contact. You will need to be able to justify why contact was stopped should the case go to Court.\nIf you are in any doubt as to your legal rights or what to do, please get in touch with us.\nThere are lots of ways to try and deal with a dispute, even when talking face to face seems not to be working any more. A letter from a solicitor can usually assist, Mediation can also work for some families. A specially trained mediator, will have a roundtable meeting with both parents to see whether an agreement can be sorted. We can refer to mediators that we have good relationships with and we can draw up an agreement to reflect what has been agreed.\nThe rights of a father can depend on whether the father has parental responsibility for the child. Father\u2019s will automatically have parental responsibility if they are on the child\u2019s birth certificate or were married to the child\u2019s mother. Parental responsibility can be ordered by a Court order if a father doesn\u2019t have it.\nThe law is that a child should have a relationship with both parents. There is also nothing in law that says that a child should live with a mother. The Court decides these matters based on what is in a child\u2019s best interests.\nFor further information about Father\u2019s Rights, please visit this page.\nYou should promptly speak one of our solicitors to assess whether you need to take emergency action, e.g if there is a risk that your children will leave within the next 6 weeks. Court orders can then be applied for to try to stop them from leaving. It is much easier to deal with the situation before the children have left than it is to try to get them home.\nThe judge will usually organise CAFCASS to undertake a thorough investigation into whether a move is in the children's best interests. Detailed case preparation is essential in these cases and a solicitor is highly recommended. These decision will have life changing consequences for the children.\nIf you do not have parental responsibility for the children, your former partner can remove them from the country without your consent or the permission of the court. You will therefore need to take the initiative and apply to the court if you wish to oppose a move abroad.\nThe Judge will listen to all the legal arguments and then make a decision. The Judge will make decisions based on what is in the child\u2019s best interests. The Judge will look at the welfare checklist from the Children Act 1989 to assist him/her.",

You can plan a fancy dinner with your girlfriends so that you can all get dressed up and treat yourself to a nice dinner. Or, you can have a girls\u2019 night in, where you eat your favorite snacks and watch a romantic comedy. Bonding with the people who mean the most to you and have likely helped you through a breakup or two can help you get through Valentine\u2019s Day in good spirits. You and your friends may even start a new tradition that you can continue to follow even when you do get into new romantic relationships.\nShow your family how much you love them this Valentine\u2019s Day. If you have children, this is a great way to teach them that it\u2019s perfectly fine to celebrate all forms of love on this holiday. Exchange gifts with your children, siblings, parents, or extended family members this Valentine\u2019s Day to ensure that all your loved ones feel appreciated and cared for during this holiday. You can even draw names a week or two before Valentine\u2019s Day to make sure that no one is overlooked during the gift exchange. On the evening of Valentine\u2019s Day, have a dessert party so that you and your relatives can exchange gifts while you enjoy gourmet chocolates and spend quality time together.\nFinally, keep in mind that you can spend Valentine\u2019s Day relaxing and pampering yourself. Book an appointment at your favorite spa so you can spend the day getting a massage or facial. You can even book a mini vacation or go to a retreat center that will give you the opportunity to connect with nature, meditate, and take some time to reflect on your life goals as well as all the great things that are happening in your life. Or, contact your beautician so that you can visit the beauty salon on Valentine\u2019s Day to get a new hairstyle. Changing up your look can help to boost your mood and may just give you the confidence you need to attend a social event that could help you meet someone you may be interested in. When you make treating yourself well a priority, you\u2019ll be more likely to start looking forward to Valentine\u2019s Day, even if you\u2019re not celebrating it in the traditional fashion.",

Honestly, I watched a segment on dialysis and am a firm believer that if you can do something to help someone you should.\nNo. People deserve to be happy, it\u2019s worth a couple weeks of discomfort to improve the life of someone else.\nI\u2019m a little nervous about something happening to my remaining kidney, but I guess its motivation to avoid salt.

        "raw_content": "Next IoT Venturers: Telcos and Social Platforms\nBy ~ | Date 2016-09-05 | Views 1341\n#IoT #InternetOfThings #Telcos #SocialPlatforms\nThe Internet of Things (IoT) develops rapidly as more devices and machines continue to gain technological advancements. This already wide network of connected data exchangers is about to get even bigger.\nNext in line to dip their hands in the IoT bowl are telecomm firms and social media. Two giant companies have reportedly began their projects already.\nAT&T Inc. has partnered up with Intel Corp. to work on a next gen platform for the IoT. The collaborative effort aims to provide further developments in network technology, data centers and all related devices.\nUsing low cost hardware and open source tools, a new digital network will be created which will base its fundamentals from software-defined networking and network function virtualization. The target result will be improved telecomm networks and efficiency as well as enhanced cloud services, VR/AR support, data analytics, and hi-res content over data network.\nAT&T will be shifting to Intel\u2019s Xeon server chips for use in its data centers and custom hardware running programs will then move to network function virtualization. The telco firm will also be opened to the resources of Intel\u2019s \u201cSuper 7\u201d cloud providers, namely Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services and Facebook in the US; and Alibaba, Baidu and TenCent in China.\nThe use of micro data centers are also projected for evenly distributing server loads. Carsten Baumann, an operations manager of a North American data center gear manufacturer, stated that, \u201cWe will see a proliferation of smaller, higher quantity, edge data center infrastructure.\u201d\n30% of the virtualized network is the goal of AT&T this year, and by 2020, the company hopes to reach 75% and above. End users may then get reduced network costs and services from the provider.\nThe bold move from Intel did not come as much of a surprise, considering that the tech giant and other similar companies such as Cisco and Synopsis are all looking deeply into furthering the IoT systems. All three have made huge investments for IoT growth.\nIt\u2019s a step in the right direction, and other major US providers like Verizon as well as in other countries such as O2 in the UK may be expected to follow through. Compounded with the ongoing development of 5G, end users might see faster, yet more affordable data rates in the near future.\nAnother giant in a different field is also working on an innovative approach to the IoT. Facebook, the top social network in the world, is developing a method of connecting their users\u2019 accounts to IoT devices.\nWhether smart wearables or home appliances, the owner will be able to access and remotely control the machines using his/her Facebook account. For instance, you may set a timer on your induction cooker, or increase/decrease your refrigerator\u2019s thermostat through Facebook. The possibilities are endless.\nFurthermore, a user\u2019s \u2018friends\u2019 may gain access to a device should the user wish to do so. An example was given wherein \u201ca business owner may allow employees control over air-conditioning but not CCTV cameras.\u201d\nCurrently, a device has a specific app paired with it and different devices will then need a special or separate app. Add to that the software updates from registered devices or user searches and releases of numerous new apps every month, and everything can become extremely complicated.\nFacebook aims to change all of this using only one user account, and the company already filed a patent for the technology. For full details of the patent application, here\u2019s the page from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO):\nThe Internet of Things is fastly becoming the universal platform of the future. Today, global industries are bringing connections closer than ever, with everyone and everything.\n> View ~'s Profile",

        "raw_content": "TTC Annual Report\nAt the TTC we believe that what's important must be measured and we built the annual submission of data in as a central requirement for our signatories. Thus in September 2018 we carried out our first data gathering. Signatories submitted data sets which were anonymised, aggregated and analysed to produce our first Annual Benchmarking Report.\nPart 1 is the report itself, which you can download here. You can use this to see where you are ahead or behind of our wider membership.\nPart 2 is coming soon and will consist of simple tools allowing you to measure your performance in more detail in comparison to companies in your sector, of a similar size and against the group as a whole\nOVERVIEW TO THE TTC TOOLKIT\nTo drive diversity and inclusion, we believe you need data to understand where you are, access to best practice to learn from others and the ability to connect with others who are on the same journey to collaborate and move things forward.\nThis is key to the TTC Toolkit. Throughout 2018, we worked with members online and at our regional events to hear what was working and to learn who was operating in this space. Then from September to December we conducted our first data gathering exercise and put together our first Benchmarking Report. From this we have compiled what is the start of our TTC toolkit. It is still a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and we look forward to working with members to expand and develop these resources in coming months.\nDownload Toolkit Overview\nOPEN PLAYBOOK OF BEST PRACTICE\nThere is no single silver bullet to \"fix\" diversity in your company and not a one-size-fits-all model. But nor is there a reason to start with a blank sheet; TTC members don't want to re-invent the wheel.\nSo throughout 2018 we worked with TTC members across the country to find out what was working across the whole talent pipeline--recruitment, retention, supporting returners/retraining and building an inclusive culture. From this we began building our Open Playbook of Best Practice. This is an open-source, growing resource where you can see a range of ideas you can adapt for use in your company.\nOpen the Playbook of Best Practice\nMost of our members are keen to work with other organisations and initiatives who focus on diversity and inclusion, but they weren't sure who was out there. No one seemed to have a comprehensive list of national organisations, much less regional or local ones. Thus the TTC Diversity Map was born.\nIn 2018 we began working with members online and at our regional events to map all that was going on to support the diversity talent pipeline from start to finish. We've compiled this quite simply into a document that can be filtered and searched by members, but are now working with partners to look at other ways of using the data. We already have over 300+ entries in Jan 2019 and this will just grow.\nClick below to view the map and if there is something missing, please let us know\nOpen the Diversity Map\nWant to work more closely with companies who are moving the dial on inclusion and diversity in tech?",

        "raw_content": "Michael McManus was one of thousands of men and women who embellish their military service. But his story casts a different light on stolen valor.\nhttps://www.texasmonthly.com/articles/to-tell-the-truth/\nOn December 12, 2009, newly elected Houston mayor Annise Parker stood before a throng of supporters gathered downtown at the George R. Brown Convention Center. Beaming in a shimmery gold pantsuit, Parker, the first openly gay mayor of a major American city, triumphantly told the crowd, \u201cThis election has changed the world for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community\u2014just as it is about transforming the lives of all Houstonians for the better.\u201d Among those listening raptly to Parker\u2019s passionate words was a man in his early forties, dressed in full military regalia. With an angular face, short brown hair, glinting rectangular glasses, and goatee, he looked unassuming\u2014except for his bow tie and crisp blue military uniform heavily adorned with medals, pendants, badges, and pins reflecting the rank of an Army brigadier general.\nOne photographer at the event, a former Marine Corps sergeant, noticed the man\u2019s attire and grew suspicious of how his uniform violated a number of dress-code regulations. A brigadier general would never appear in uniform with facial hair, the photographer thought. Plus, the medals the man wore\u2014a Purple Heart, Silver Star, Bronze Star, Air Medal, Flying Cross, and Distinguished Service Cross, plus five other U.S.-issued emblems mixed in with a Commander of the Order of the British Empire award and a British Special Air Services Crest\u2014seemed conflicting and implausible.\nThe photos ended up online, where they circulated on numerous military-focused blogs. The man was decried as a despicable fraud, one blogger writing, \u201cThis is no Ashton Kutcher skit, this is some guy who is disgracing the military by wearing a uniform and decorations that are obviously fraudulent.\u201d Someone else Photoshopped the image to mimic an old-fashioned \u201cWanted\u201d poster, with thick bold letters declaring \u201cWANTED FOR STOLEN VALOR.\u201d\nThese critics had every right to be upset. It\u2019s taboo to imitate a military officer; it\u2019s also illegal to do so. The Stolen Valor Act, passed by Congress in 2006 and revised in 2013, criminalizes falsely wearing these decorations for personal gain or benefit. Not only do imposters stand to profit from this kind of deceit, which can be construed as an egregious type of theft, but supporters of this legislation also maintain that this kind of fraud diminishes the significance of military insignia. The man wasn\u2019t just breaking the law\u2014he was devaluing the very honor that thousands of active military and veterans fought hard to establish.\nA month later, on January 19, 2010, the photographer brought the photos to Christopher Petrowski, an FBI agent assigned to the Houston Division Violent Crime Task Force. Through a driver\u2019s license and database search, Petrowski identified the man as Michael Patrick McManus, a Houston resident who\u2019d had previous brushes with federal law enforcement. Petrowski called McManus and left a voicemail. Two days later, Petrowski received a call from McManus\u2019s lawyer. Petrowski said he needed to interview McManus and obtain the uniform and insignia for evidence. The lawyer replied that his client had fearfully destroyed everything when he realized he\u2019d become \u201cthe subject of angry bloggers.\u201d\nThe U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Texas filed a five-count indictment against McManus in mid-February, charging him with unauthorized possession and deceptive wearing of U.S. and foreign uniforms and medals. According to the criminal complaint filed against McManus, it was a textbook case of stolen valor.\nMcManus certainly appeared guilty. His election night ensemble was absurd, a haphazard assortment of medals and awards. When confronted, he hired a lawyer and destroyed the evidence. Yet Petrowski and the bloggers didn\u2019t know what McManus felt he had to gain by his actions\u2014and what he had already lost.\nTexas has an unusually large number of stolen valor cases. Given that the state is home to 220 military sites and dozens of veteran foundations and associations, Texas is ripe pickings for those looking to profit off of those resources. Josh Kinser, the former field activities director for the Military Warriors Support Foundation in San Antonio, experienced this firsthand during his tenure. Part of the group\u2019s mission is to help struggling veterans apply for home mortgages. After discovering several men had lied about their records, the organization began requiring the submission of a DD 214, the form every veteran receives upon discharge as proof of service. Soon that wasn\u2019t even enough. Doctored forms flooded in. Eventually, MWSF hired two full-time staffers to vet every applicant. \u201cIt got to the point where it was just so frustrating. It takes up your time,\u201d Kinser says. \u201cGosh, I get mad just thinking about it.\u201d\nMoney motivates some to lie. For others, it\u2019s about the glory of being associated with the military. Many politicians and public figures build careers around their service. Veterans can sometimes parlay distinguished records into civilian success. And while embellished war stories shared casually during a round of drinks are frowned upon but certainly come with the territory, these exaggerations acquire a sinister edge when used to curry public favor. Consider beloved NBC anchor Brian Williams, who was suspended and demoted after admitting he\u2019d falsely claimed to be on a helicopter brought down by rocket-propelled grenade fire while reporting in Iraq in 2003 (he\u2019d actually been in another aircraft a half hour behind). Or take Hillary Clinton: back in 2008, the Democratic presidential candidate said she \u201cmisspoke\u201d when she described running from sniper fire during a 1996 visit to Bosnia. (Ironically, Williams himself shredded Clinton\u2019s story in a March 2008 newscast.)\nIn an age where service is no longer mandatory, joining the armed forces is considered the utmost demonstration of patriotism. Wounded veterans are frequently honored at sporting events and on the news. High-profile organizations like the Wounded Warrior Project attach the label of warrior to veterans. And the rise of the military memoir\u2014like the work of two Texans, Chris Kyle\u2019s American Sniper and Marcus Luttrell\u2019s Lone Survivor\u2014further fuels this hero-worship.\nWhile Luttrell\u2019s harrowing account of an anti-Taliban mission gone awry brought him fame\u2014a bestselling book, a biopic starring Mark Walberg\u2014it also brought him vulnerability. Daniel Lee Marshall was exposed in 2010 for pretending to be an Army Ranger to get close to the Luttrells. \u201cIt\u2019s just incredibly weird how strange these guys are to do that and try and infiltrate that family,\u201d says Don Shipley, who exposes \u201cphony Navy SEALs\u201d from his home in Chesapeake, Virginia.\nB.G. Burkett knows that behavior all too well. The 72-year-old former first lieutenant has spent much of his life exposing military frauds from his home outside Dallas, investigating about 3,500 cases over the past three decades and penning the 1998 tome Stolen Valor: How the Vietnam Generation Was Robbed of its Heroes and its History with Glenna Whitley. \u201cWhy the deceivers lie probably emerges from deep feelings of inadequacy, the need to be seen as a man\u2019s man, bigger than life,\u201d they write. \u201cFor some, belonging to a group defined as \u2018warriors\u2019 is irresistible.\u201d\nMany mainstream military accounts\u2014the ones that are romanticized and mythologized\u2014tend to focus on the more grisly aspects of service, stories of narrow escapes, bloody battles, and other acts of significant derring-do. This propagates an image of all veterans as war heroes when, in fact, most members aren\u2019t stationed \u201con the front lines.\u201d For those who are, bragging about their accomplishments seems anathema to why they chose to serve at all. \u201cWe don\u2019t like the reaction that people give us when they find out we\u2019re SEALs,\u201d Shipley says. \u201cWe don\u2019t really like the attention.\u201d But stolen valor offenders seek out that validation and find it a desirable identity to adopt. \u201cThey worship those guys. They want to emulate them, certainly,\u201d Shipley notes.\nThis feigned authority extends beyond the military; fake lawyers and doctors also fall under the umbrella of \u201cimpostors,\u201d says Deirdre Barrett, a Harvard University assistant professor of psychology. \u201cSometimes it\u2019s the most sort of high authority position that they seem to be aiming at, and others seem to want something that would get you an awful lot of sympathy.\u201d Engrossed in the imagery of the false history they create, and buoyed by the attention they receive, many become repeat offenders, Barrett says. When caught, they often reinvent their persona in a new setting.\nJay Rorty, who briefly represented McManus as a public defender in 2004, has had three clients who have impersonated authority figures. \u201cHow much in that moment does a person know that they are impersonating?\u201d he said. \u201cAnd how much are they so much living the role that they believe that it is the case, that it\u2019s all just a misunderstanding when people catch them?\u201d\nMichael McManus always wanted to be a hero.\nBorn in Terre Haute, Indiana, on January 14, 1966, to two unmarried college students, he was adopted at five days old by Michael L. McManus, a Ph.D. student at Purdue University, and his wife. The family soon moved to Connecticut, where McManus\u2019s father took a job with the USDA Forest Service and they adopted another boy, Brian. In 1975, after fifteen years of marriage, the couple went through a contentious divorce, with McManus Sr. eventually gaining custody of both boys, their mother seeing them only occasionally afterward. When he was eleven, McManus and his brother were slow to accept his father\u2019s new wife, a woman who had her own four-year-old son, Nick.\nAs a child, McManus was unathletic, stubborn and, mischievous, frequently getting into trouble at school. He often lied to his parents; admitting fault was \u201cbeyond his capabilities,\u201d his father says. The family spent more than a year in therapy trying to resolve their issues. In high school, McManus earned good grades but participated in few social activities. One day after graduation, he came home from his job at a local supermarket and told his family he wanted to join the Army. His parents were shocked\u2014he hadn\u2019t previously expressed interest in serving\u2014but they tried to be encouraging and supportive.\nMcManus trained in Alabama, testing well during the aptitude evaluation. To his father\u2019s dismay, he joined the Military Police Corps instead of pursuing a field that could advance his post-Army career, such as engineering. His father remembers his son\u2019s excitement when he briefly returned home after basic training. Every morning, he would jog in camouflage pants and boots.\nMcManus entered active duty on November 11, 1984. During his three years of service, he achieved the rank of Private First Class, serving overseas in Kaiserslautern, Germany, as a military policeman. He earned expert marksmanship with the rifle and pistol. He told his family he was assigned to Colin Powell\u2019s security detail.\nBut McManus\u2019s relationship to the military was always uneasy. When he was in boot camp, he would occasionally disagree with his drill sergeant. He was disciplined six times for leaving his post or ignoring directives. A disciplinary form from April 1986 shows that he was admonished for twice sleeping at a sentinel post, earning him a pay level reduction, two weeks of restricted facilities access, and 14 extra days of duty.\nMost substantively, McManus was hiding something. On March 31, 1987, McManus was discharged under honorable conditions, denoting satisfactory, but not perfect, completion of duties. On a personnel identification form in his military records, \u201cNOT RECOMMENDED FOR FURTHER SERVICE\u201d was written neatly in all caps.\nThat day, everything changed.\nYears later, McManus told friends and family his military service had ended because of a deeply personal secret, something outside his control: he was gay. The disclosure to a superior, 24 years before the repeal of Don\u2019t Ask Don\u2019t Tell, altered the course of McManus\u2019s life, says James Fallon, his Houston attorney. Had he stayed quiet, Fallon says, he might have remained in the Army much longer. Had he served two decades later, he might have served out the remaining five years of his eight-year obligation. Perhaps he would have made working in the Army\u2019s law enforcement division a lifelong career or transitioned to the private security sector.\nThat day McManus lost a job\u2014but also a large part of his identity, too. \u201cHe loved the military, and so from that time on he had involved himself in different kinds of endeavors that were on the fringe of military meaning,\u201d Fallon says. \u201cThat was definitely a big thing with him, to have a chance to go forward to be a hero, just like any other person would want to be.\u201d\nMuch of McManus\u2019s life after the Army remained shrouded in mystery to his family. After his discharge in 1987, he distanced himself from immediate relatives, only occasionally coming home for holidays.\nHe came out only to his father\u2014and even that was an accident. After noticing his son coming home in ostentatious attire, McManus Sr. looked through his son\u2019s briefcase, unearthing photos of him at a gay party. When his father confronted him, McManus sent him pamphlets about coming out, and the two slowly began a dialogue.\nBack in the civilian world, McManus struggled with the direction of his life. He worked odd jobs, tried for years to graduate from college, and often borrowed money from friends.\nHe tried to recreate his military experience, collecting medals, uniforms, and insignia from ads in surplus magazines and stores. While living with a friend in North Carolina, he told his father he\u2019d landed an interview for a security officer position in Germany. Afterward he called back in tears, explaining that he admitted he was gay during a lie detector test, at which point the interview ended. Today, such an incident would cause national outrage; three decades ago, this employment discrimination was much more prevalent.\nThe next time McManus Sr. saw his son, McManus had been admitted to a North Carolina hospital for severe depression. After his release, he lived with his grandparents in a small Indiana farm town. In August 1988, he enrolled at Purdue, his father\u2019s alma mater, studying French and becoming a member of the school\u2019s Delta Lambda Phi chapter, but never graduating. After visiting San Jose State University, in 1993 McManus decided to transfer there and study Chinese instead. There he met Thubten Comerford, a roommate who would become one of his closest friends over the next two decades.\n\u201cIt was surprising how much we had in common,\u201d Comerford says. Both were adopted, both were gay, and both had served in the military (Comerford in the Navy). \u201cWe seemed suited for each other.\u201d Early on, McManus feigned still being on active duty, saying he was on leave to finish college, though he had been discharged six years earlier. He told Comerford he was a captain serving on the Army Reserves\u2019 Special Operations Command, a unit formed in 1987 to conduct missions assigned by the Pentagon and president. McManus showed Comerford his captain\u2019s uniform and a Purple Heart medal, both of which he wore to the 1993 LGBT March on Washington. \u201cI had no reason to not believe him,\u201d Comerford says.\nAs the two grew closer, McManus frequently spoke about working as a translator and bodyguard for Powell, who in 1986 took over command of the Army\u2019s Fifth Corps in Frankfurt. As part of a \u201cfairly robust personal vendetta,\u201d Comerford says he would castigate Powell for his stance against openly gay men in the military. In a June 1993 press release by GLAAD\u2019s San Francisco chapter, McManus is identified as \u201cCaptain McManus\u201d and claims he disclosed his sexuality to Powell, who allegedly replied, \u201cWhat do you want me to do about it? As long as you are doing your job well, that does not matter to me.\u201d The release states McManus held \u201ctop secret security clearance\u201d and quotes him as saying, \u201cIt is time for people to realize that sexual orientation is a fundamental part of a person\u2019s identity, just as much as being Asian\u2014or African-American.\u201d\nThe claims about Powell, absent from McManus\u2019s military records, called his discharge story into question, even though Fallon, his Houston attorney, was prepared to use it as part of his defense. Powell\u2019s chief of staff said while he had many bodyguards during that assignment, he does not specifically remember McManus. Comerford once thought both their military careers were stopped short due to their sexuality, but looking back now, cynicism colors his view of his friend. Comerford told me he believes Michael\u2019s discharge stemmed from dereliction of duty, indicated by his numerous disciplinary infractions.\nDespite McManus\u2019s relentless efforts to stay connected to the Army, not everything in his life revolved around it. By the time he moved to San Jose, California, he was already passionate about Buddhism, and he encouraged Comerford to take up the religion in 1994. Two years later, the pair traveled to a Buddhist mountain retreat in Dharamsala, India. They spent six months there, with McManus being recognized as a reincarnate lama\u2014a Tibetan monk in a previous life\u2014in February 1997. In one photo, McManus wears red and yellow robes, smiling with clasped hands as the Dalai Lama passes by. Photos from the trip serve as the centerpiece of McManus\u2019s Facebook, where he went by the name Tenzin Chopak. \u201cThat was something that was real,\u201d Comerford says. \u201cThere are people that don\u2019t believe that it actually happened because he lied about everything else.\u201d Both men took monastic vows before leaving India in March 1997.\nProjecting affluence, and the legitimacy that came with it, was also important. For a while McManus worked at a San Jose caf\u00e9 and occasionally held down other jobs, but he struggled to support himself financially (Comerford estimates over the course of their friendship, McManus collectively borrowed approximately $25,000 from him). Yet somehow, McManus always had expensive things. He brought Louis Vuitton luggage for the India trip, and he owned many designer clothes. \u201cI don\u2019t think it was the material things themselves,\u201d Comerford said. \u201cHe had a desire to be seen as someone who had those things.\u201d\nShortly after that trip McManus moved to Palo Alto, and his financial struggles followed him. In November 1998, a check bounced when he tried to buy a computer, and less than two years later he was charged with online fraud while purchasing personal items. Both cases were heard on the same day in September 2000, and Michael served a six-month concurrent sentence in the county jail.\nAround the same time, McManus told friends he secured a job on campus at Stanford University, where he met his partner of over a decade, a petroleum engineering Ph.D. student, who he moved in with in the early 2000s. McManus would later say he was also in the Ph.D. program there and frequently wore the university\u2019s sweatshirts, though he never enrolled.\nWhile living in Palo Alto, McManus injured his back moving furniture. Several surgeries later, he was in constant pain and had a pump inserted into his side for direct medication application. This led to a painkiller addiction that kept him in and out of drug treatment programs the next several years.\nThen, at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport on January 21, 2002, McManus presented a ticketing agent with what appeared to be a military ID. He was scheduled to fly on American Airlines Flight 1970 destined for San Jose, he said, and would be serving as an unarmed air marshal on the flight, thus requiring a seat upgrade to the front row. He\u2019d been upgraded to first class on his trip to New Orleans from California, he said. After checking McManus\u2019s records, the agent told him she couldn\u2019t provide the upgrade, but the gate agent could. As he approached gate C-8, he wore Army fatigues resembling those worn by the National Guard and an ID listing captain as his rank.\nThe gate agent gave him the access he asked for, and once pre-boarded, he met with the pilot. But the pilot found McManus\u2019s conspicuous attire odd; air marshals should blend in and are usually armed. The sky marshal program, McManus replied, wasn\u2019t up to speed, so it was using Delta Force members \u201ctrained to handle any situation.\u201d He examined the galley and bathroom area at the plane\u2019s rear, and he asked the pilot for the \u201ccode word\u201d to access the cockpit.\nHis story unraveled when the flight\u2019s real marshals boarded. The pilot approached McManus, asking if he was a marshal, to which he replied he was a \u201cmilitary version of a sky marshal.\u201d The pilot asked him to de-board.\nMcManus got on a different flight. The next day, when confronted by San Francisco FBI agents, McManus admitted he\u2019d purchased the ID, uniform, and badges from military magazines and surplus stores. He was flying to California to attend San Francisco\u2019s Fleet Week, an annual celebration where military ships dock at a major city for a week. He told the agents he wore the uniform to receive special treatment by the airline.\nOn February 1, he was indicted on two felony counts of impersonating a U.S. employee and armed services member to obtain the upgrade. The case was transferred from Louisiana to the Northern District of California, where McManus was living in Mountain View.\n(The presiding judge on the case was James Ware, an irony considering that for years, Ware told a story about himself that wasn\u2019t quite his: that his teenage brother, Virgil, had been killed by a racist in Birmingham in 1963, at the peak of the Civil Rights Movement. It was a story he told frequently, especially five years earlier during his nomination for the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in San Francisco, where he\u2019d be the only active black judge. But although the details of the murder and the fact Virgil had a brother named James was true, the story wasn\u2019t. Virgil\u2019s real family members, still living in Birmingham, disputed the judge\u2019s claims in the local newspaper, forcing him to withdraw his nomination.)\nIn July 2002, McManus pleaded guilty to the second count against him. During his prosecution, his mental health and drug issues came to light. He\u2019d begun counseling during his pretrial release to help him avoid repeating his \u201cneedy, yet criminal, behavior.\u201d He received two years\u2019 probation and six months of electronic monitoring, under the conditions that he participate in drug-alcohol and mental health treatment, and \u201cprovide his true identity at all times.\u201d\nJust two years later, in November 2004, McManus\u2019s probation was revoked for possession of false identification. He requested to be placed in a Texas facility so he could remain close to his partner, who\u2019d recently moved to Houston for a new job. On January 3, 2005, McManus had to surrender for a three-month sentence in a Houston-area prison.\nAdam Braun, the prosecutor, suspected McManus\u2019s actions were linked to his self-esteem. \u201cHe just kind of seemed like a sad, troubled person that maybe didn\u2019t have a lot to feel special about,\u201d he says. \u201cMaybe that military experience was the highlight of his life, or during that time he felt respected at some subconscious, psychological level to serve that need.\u201d\nAgainst the backdrop of two active wars, in December 2006 George W. Bush signed the Stolen Valor Act into law. It detailed fraud as not only wearing unauthorized medals but also attempting to purchase, sell, mail, produce, or exchange military distinctions for anything of value. False claims became punishable by a $10,000 fine and up to a year in prison. Within the first eighteen months, at least twenty men were prosecuted.\nOne of those men was Xavier Alvarez, a member of the Three Valleys Municipal Water District Board in Pomona, California. Alvarez claimed to be an engineer, a Detroit Red Wings player, the boyfriend of a Mexican celebrity. One day, he took things too far. At a July 2007 meeting, he introduced himself as a 25-year Marine veteran and a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient. \u201cI got wounded many times by the same guy,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m still around.\u201d The comments of Alvarez, who never served, quickly drew local ire. Alvarez, one of the first to be prosecuted, hired a lawyer to defend his right to free\u2014not necessarily truthful\u2014speech.\nThen-Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott led the filing of a December 2011 brief with 19 other states defending the law\u2019s legitimacy and affirming states\u2019 right to police \u201cknowingly false statements of fact.\u201d \u201cWhen military impostors proliferate unchecked, they diminish the value of military honors by blurring their signaling function,\u201d it read. \u201cThis blurring effect causes substantial harm to the military and to the recipients of military honors.\u201d (Four years later, as governor, Abbott has continued supporting stolen valor prosecutions. In May 2015, he signed legislation that made sentencing for those \u201cpresenting false or fictitious military record\u201d more severe. \u201cToo many brave American men and women have put their lives on the line for our country to have their records tarnished by someone making a false claim,\u201d Abbott said in a statement.)\nBut as Alvarez\u2019s case advanced to the Supreme Court, it became clear that simply harming the military\u2019s reputation wouldn\u2019t be enough. In June 2012, the high court struck down the law in a 6-3 decision, citing First Amendment concerns. Although the justices recognized the law\u2019s justification, they disputed the government\u2019s ability to regulate false statements: \u201cThe facts of this case indicate that the dynamics of free speech, of counterspeech, of refutation, can overcome the lie.\u201d\nThe court reached \u201cthe entirely right result,\u201d says Rorty, McManus\u2019s one-time public defender. \u201cTo rise to the level of criminal activity, there has to have been an intention to gain a tangible benefit. A false claim standing on its own which harmed no one, can result in no benefit to the actor, shouldn\u2019t be criminalized.\u201d Those tangible benefits, like gaining money or property, were written into the revised version of the law, signed by President Obama in June 2013.\nThe Ninth Circuit appeal phase of the Alvarez case advanced in tandem with the Houston case against McManus for his attire at the 2009 election party. In 2011, McManus\u2019s case was in pretrial phase. Fallon and a team of Yale law students were crafting his defense. Like many in the LGBT community, they argued, McManus had been deeply affected by Parker\u2019s victory. He\u2019d attended the party in his outfit to symbolically express himself and \u201ccelebrate the LGBT community\u2019s progress.\u201d In his motion to dismiss, Fallon wrote, \u201cMr. McManus wore an army uniform and medals to the mayor\u2019s victory party in order to protest both his discharge from the Army and the continuing exclusion of LGBT Americans from the military under Don\u2019t Ask Don\u2019t Tell. Mr. McManus\u2019 possessing and wearing of a military uniform and medals were a form of political expression.\u201d The Alvarez decision the next year would prove them right.\nHowever, McManus continued struggling with drug abuse. His partner, unable to accept his addiction any longer, had moved to New Orleans. After his arrest, McManus briefly stayed with Comerford in Portland, Oregon, where he was supposed to enter a drug treatment program. But Comerford learned of the air marshal incident and realized much of what his friend had told him over the years was untrue. Records requests revealed McManus never actually graduated from Purdue. Or from San Jose State.\nAs McManus\u2019s stories unraveled, Comerford\u2019s overwhelming emotion was sadness. He knew his best friend had a big heart but suspected dwindling self-worth provided fodder for all the lies. \u201cTo have such low self-esteem, to need to invent reasons for people to like you and reasons to fit in was just very sad to me,\u201d he says. \u201cThat he did not trust in his own value as an ordinary person and that he had to invent all these things to be accepted or believed in. The thing is, once you start going down that road, it\u2019s even a bigger challenge to come clean about it.\u201d\nHouston was sweltering on August 11, 2011, recording a high of 102 degrees and up to 85 percent humidity. After walking into a Subway in southwest Houston, McManus collapsed. He was transported to St. Luke\u2019s Episcopal Hospital, where, in a coma, he was placed on life support. Doctors told McManus Sr. that his son had been taking a cocktail of drugs\u2014Percocet, Ambien, Celexa, Klonopin, Trazodone, and Zyprexa\u2014treating pain, depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues.\nA week after his collapse, his family took him off life support. He was 45 years old. An autopsy determined he died from heart disease complications; his major coronary vessels were narrowed 50 percent. The report also noted his chronic prescription medication abuse as likely contributing to his death.\nIt wasn\u2019t until after McManus\u2019s death that his family and friends, grief-stricken, learned the truth: much of what they knew about him was untrue. Working for Colin Powell. Reaching the rank of captain. Attending Stanford. Possibly even being discharged from the Army because he was gay. Four years later, when McManus would have turned 49, his friends and family remain deeply hurt.\nWhen Comerford learned his friend had died, he felt grief, but also relief. \u201cMy reaction was, \u2018Thank God for Michael that his struggle was over.\u2019 He was not happy. He was not at peace. It was just constantly struggling and becoming less and less capable of keeping all of those stories straight.\u201d\nTags: Longreads, Military\nIt\u2019s sad that the angry bloggers you talk about are the ones who really exposed this criminal.\nShanasmiles\nI agree. It is hard to feel sorry for a compulsive liar, con artist, slandering thief! He sounds like he was miserable, but all of that misery appears to have been of his own making. He wasn\u2019t just playing dress up, he was defrauding the government, his own friends, family, and veterans charities out of thousands of dollars! He wouldn\u2019t or couldn\u2019t put in the effort, time, intellect, and skill into making actual accomplishments of his own and he took money, goods, and services intended for people who didn\u2019t order their uniforms out of the back of a magazine! It is pathetic and I give no quarter. Hillary Clinton, Brian Williams, none of those lying cowards are worthy of even my own dog tags and I had cushy research and instruction assignments the whole 6 years on Active Duty. Too many servicemembers sacrifice their bodies, minds, and lives then come home to find scarce resources, long wait times for medical care, and a lack of affordable housing. The fact that these people are impersonating soldiers is only the tip of the iceberg. Hideous. My husband was stationed all over the world. One grandfather was a marine and a pow in Korea. My aunt retired as an officer in the Marine Corp. My other grandpa was a code interceptor in the Air Force during the Korean conflict. Those people are my heroes. I wouldn\u2019t dare sully their selfless service with lies.\nPS: all five of us are about as Liberal as we can be, but we know bullshit when we smell it and the clintons smell like the whole damn farm!\ndblument\nWhat about Senator Richard Blumenthal, D-CT ? He is a lying POS , but much worse than McManus. Blumenthal lied to get a better job. McManus was sick-\nProgressives. *facepalm* Such a disgrace. For all we know, this is just more lies. The judge that tried him in 2002 was a liar too, there\u2019s apparently a network of them, and they\u2019re working together with a political agenda.\nMaybe his death was faked to cover his tracks when he was outed by \u2018angry bloggers\u2019. How does a guy working part time at a cafe get a high priced lawyer with a team of Yale law students working on his defense? A defense that \u2018deliberately lying is OK\u2019? A defense Obama later upheld by clarifying, deliberately lying is OK if you don\u2019t materially profit from it. So lying for propaganda, for politics, that\u2019s fine. This has many indications of a broadly orchestrated plan to subvert and diminish our nations vital institutions.\nWe need to dig out the root of this scourge and get it out of our system before it collapses upon as all. It seems like that is the goal.\nMy politely worded, non-vulgar comment questioning these circumstances was removed. It\u2019s actions like this that make people distrust the media.

        "title": "A Houston Couple's Dog Died After They Hired a Dog Walker on an App \u2013 Texas Monthly",
        "raw_content": "Their experience is a visceral reminder of the risks of entrusting our personal lives to startups whose business models discourage accountability.\nhttps://www.texasmonthly.com/news/wag-app-dog-fort-worth/\nWinnie, the dog of Sara and Nick Moore of Houston, Texas.\nSince ride-sharing began changing how we get around, startup founders have aspired to create a business that\u2019s the \u201cUber of [whatever industry doesn\u2019t have an Uber yet].\u201d Grocery delivery, women\u2019s haircuts, massage, flowers, lawn care\u2014for any given service, someone likely got venture capital funding by proposing to connect providers and customers, all from the convenience of their phones.\nOne such service is Wag!, a dog-walking app based out of Los Angeles that promises \u201ctrusted dog walkers in your area\u201d with live GPS-based tracking. Through the app, you can hire a dog walker who will come into your house, take your pet out, and bring them back, all while you\u2019re at work or otherwise unavailable. It\u2019s an appealing setup\u2014but not one that comes without risk.\nSara and Nick Moore of Houston learned that the hard way. According to CBS News, the dog walker they hired through the app told them that their wheaten terrier, Winnie, was home safe at the end of the walk. She wasn\u2019t. Instead, they learned from a Wag! representative that their dog had been hit by a car while in the dog walker\u2019s care.\nThe company\u2019s response makes it seem like its public relations were handled by a legal team. Wag! offered the Moores a reimbursement of $188 for the costs of Winnie\u2019s cremation\u2014a standard part of the company\u2019s \u201cTrust and Safety Guarantee\u201d\u2014in exchange for the couple signing a non-disclosure agreement. They declined.\nWhat happened to the Moores could happen to anyone, whether they use an app like Wag! or hire a more traditional dog-walking service that doesn\u2019t appear in headlines alongside words like \u201cdisruption.\u201d But \u201cUber-of-X\u201d apps are constructed in such a way that it\u2019s harder to ensure accountability. Wag! boasts of its \u201ccomprehensive background screenings\u201d and the $1,000,000 in insurance it offers, but both of those things can be misleading. An insurance policy won\u2019t bring a dog in the care of a reckless walker back to life. A background check can tell you if a person has been arrested for a crime, but it can\u2019t tell you if a person is responsible enough to care for someone else\u2019s pet. Wag! puts its walkers through a detailed online test, but that process can only assure that the approved dog walkers are capable of Googling answers to a quiz. For many walkers on the app, they never meet with anyone at Wag!, which means that a form of vetting that humans have used for centuries\u2014assessing a person\u2019s credibility and trustworthiness based on how they act in person\u2014never happens. There\u2019s no training process. The consequences for acting irresponsibly are limited to being removed from a part-time gig with an app that has competitors offering similar services. If you hire a conventional dog-walking service, you\u2019re still trusting a stranger to look after your pet\u2014but if that stranger is employed full-time and relies upon their job, that means an inherent accountability that app-based services don\u2019t offer.\nThis isn\u2019t an issue that\u2019s limited to Wag!, of course. Most \u201cUber-of-X\u201d businesses are built around putting slick marketing and convenience at the forefront in order to encourage people to trust a stranger in a situation that carries some risk. As of May 2018, more than 100 Uber drivers had been accused of sexually assaulting or abusing passengers. In 2016, more than 50 people in New York who were hired through Uber-for-chores app Handy were accused of property theft crimes. Airbnb users have been killed, sexually assaulted, secretly recorded by their hosts, and more. But what happened to the Moores with Wag! is a visceral reminder of the risks of entrusting our personal lives to startups whose business models discourage accountability.\nIt\u2019s also not the first time Wag! has dealt with similar issues\u2014or handled them poorly. According to a Bloomberg story from 2017, a dog on Long Island went missing while in the care of a Wag! dog walker. The dog\u2019s owner said that the company offered her $2,500 to keep quiet and offered to pay for a planned vacation to Disney World. She shared text messages she received from the company with the New York Daily News in which she was encouraged to tell reporters \u201cI don\u2019t blame them for Buddy\u201d and that Wag! had \u201cgone to extraordinary lengths to help us bring Buddy home.\u201d When she posted about her experience on social media, she received a cease-and-desist letter from a lawyer for the company that read, \u201cIf your retraction and apology to Wag! are not publicly posted to each and every social media platform that you have used to libel Wag! within 24 hours of the time of this email, this office has been authorized to use all available means to bring as swift as possible an end to your lies.\u201d (She did not; Buddy was eventually found by someone who saw a poster that the company put up in the neighborhood.) Earlier this year, a Wag! user in the Northern California town of Danville captured security footage of a walker kicking their dog in their home.\nAfter the story of Winnie went public earlier this month, Wag! CEO Hilary Schneider posted an open letter on the company\u2019s website acknowledging that \u201cwe have some work to do on our end\u201d and promising an update to the policy that asked the Moores to sign a non-disclosure agreement before receiving a reimbursement for the expenses associated with Winnie\u2019s death. She didn\u2019t address the inherent lack of accountability in a business model that treats everyone who works for it as an independent contractor. For their part, the Moores told CBS News that \u201cin the future, they plan to use qualified local services with full-time walkers\u201d to care for their pets.\nAn earlier version of this article\u2019s headline incorrectly stated that the couple was from Fort Worth, not Houston. Texas Monthly regrets this error.\nTags: Society, dog walking, uber, wag app\ndead pets are a cause for sorrow the world around.\nhiring people just because they have an app is perhaps a first world problem.\n(would you call being murdered or raped by an uber driver a first-world problem?).\nUber And Lyft Are Returning To Austin on Memorial Day\nHas Ridesharing In Austin Been Ruined?\nAustin Can\u2019t Learn To Share\nWhat Comes Next For Ride Services In Austin And Beyond Now That Prop 1 Is Dead?",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI am a higher tax payer and I want to donate shares to a charity claiming tax relief. For every \u00a3100,000, how much will my donation be worth and how much will I receive back through Gift Aid?\u201d\nIndividuals can obtain tax relief on the value of certain shares given to charity as a deduction against their income for income tax purposes. This is in addition, to the exemption from capital gains tax which is available for a gift or sale at an under-value to a charity.\nThe amount of tax relief depends on the donor\u2019s taxable income and the amount of the qualifying gift. If the donor\u2019s marginal rate of tax is 40% and he has income of \u00a3100,000 taxed at 40% and makes a qualifying gift of \u00a3100,000, his tax liability will be reduced by \u00a340,000.\nNo tax is deducted from the gift and charities cannot reclaim any tax under Gift Aid from HMRC in connection with the gift. The shares can be sold by the charity and the proceeds used for charitable purposes or they can be retained by the charity as an investment. In order to qualify for Gift Aid, the donor would have to sell the shares and donate the proceeds. There could then be capital gains tax to pay on the sale of shares by the donor.\nThis relief for a gift of shares only applies if the shares are listed on a recognised stock exchange. This includes AIM and overseas stock exchanges. Where the shares are given to a charity, the amount of the relief that can be claimed is the market value of the investments on the day they are given to the charity. There is however anti-avoidance legislation to substitute cost for market value where arrangements have been made to obtain tax relief for an increased amount.\nThe date on which the gift is made is the day on which the whole of the beneficial ownership of the shares is transferred to the charity. This is important because the shares may not come out of the donor\u2019s name until a later date and the value may have changed in the meantime.\nThe amount of any incidental costs of making the gift \u2013 for example any brokers\u2019 fees can also be claimed.\nAny amount of consideration or the value of any benefits, received by the donor or persons connected with the donor, in connection with the gift, must be deducted from the amount of relief. Unlike Gift Aid, benefits reduce the tax relief rather than disqualify the gift altogether if set limits are exceeded.\nAnyone planning on claiming this relief should take professional advice to ensure they meet all the conditions set out in the tax legislation. This note covers the main points but should not be relied on in the absence of further advice from a qualified person.",

Biotechnology is involved in research for disease control and developing environmentally-friendly approaches to using fuel and other natural resources. While programs are expanding worldwide, most top-ranked biotechnology schools are in the United States.\nHarvard University in Cambridge, Mass., is the highest-ranked school in the World Ranking Guide\u2019s list of top 50 biotechnology universities. In America, it was ranked No. 1 in genetics, genomics and bioinformatics and No. 1 in biochemistry and biophysics by \u201cU.S. News & World Report\u201d in 2014. Harvard\u2019s biotechnology graduate program allows students to choose a concentration in bioengineering and nanotechnologies, bioinformatics, life sciences or management principles, preparing them for careers in research, engineering or biotechnology administration.\nThe University of Tokyo is ranked No. 2 in the world\u2019s top biotechnology universities by World Ranking Guide. In 2014, QS Top Universities ranked it No. 31 in worldwide universities and No. 10 in universities in Asia. The University of Tokyo\u2019s Department of Biotechnology provides graduate degrees in biomolecular research, biofunctional research, molecular and cellular biosciences and biotechnology research.

        "raw_content": "Concerned Consumers\nHannah Weisfeld writes from London about the controversy in Britain about labeling products from West Bank settlements as such.\nThere is, apparently, much concern in Jerusalem over renewed attempts within Europe, led by the Danes, to force Israel to label products being exported from the West Bank with their place of origin. The goods are not party to the preferential EU-Israel trade agreement, and there is increasing pressure from consumers to know where the goods are produced. Here in London, the British government\u2019s position is unclear: they have said they would be unlikely to initiate such an enterprise and do not want to be associated with any form of boycott, but have also indicated that if others lead, they may well follow. One thing, however, is absolutely clear: there is growing frustration within the Foreign Office at Israel\u2019s apparent intransigence in relation to settlement expansion, and the EU is becoming more outspoken. This year, for instance, the EU changed the status of Modi\u2019in to that of an illegal settlement.\nWe are yet to see the official response of the U.K Jewish community, but there are some very clear signs of what the position is likely to be. In 2009, the U.K. Department for Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) issued a set of voluntary guidelines for U.K. supermarkets about how best to label products. The Jewish community produced a litany of counter-arguments in protest: it will lead to a full boycott\u2014first of West Bank produce and then of Israel in its entirety (incidentally, this is the Israeli government line). The U.K. government caved to the demands of the delegitimizers of Israel. The 20,000 or so Palestinian workers employed in settlements will be greatly harmed, as will the thriving economy of the West Bank, and this will be bad for peace. It\u2019s discriminatory\u2014no other products from occupied territories (e.g. Northern Cyprus) are labelled. And so the list goes on. The brouhaha created in South Africa just a few months ago, when the South African government came out in support of labelling, resulted in the South African Zionist Federation taking the government to court. The incident was not ignored here by our establishment Jewish community. The Board of Deputies demanded a meeting with the South African High Commission to express their concerns.\nBut perhaps it is time to reframe our thinking on the issue?\nWhat if our starting point was that there are many concerned consumers in the world wishing to know how and where their products are made. This is not an unreasonable request\u2014it is a right. They choose fairly traded coffee and buy clothes that carry guarantees that they are made in decent conditions. \u2018Ethical consumption\u2019 is not a tactic applied by Israel-haters to Israel alone. It is the reason why several of our major supermarket chains only stock fair-trade bananas, and why Cadburys, our biggest chocolate producer, now makes it products with fair-trade chocolate. True, I don\u2019t know of anyone asking to know whether their goods are produced in occupied Northern Cyprus, but let\u2019s assume that is because it is simply not on the global agenda like Israel-Palestine, and the situations are hardly comparable.\nWe could then tackle the issue of whether it opens the floodgates to full boycott. One cannot deny that by labelling products, it creates an obvious next step that people then choose not to buy the goods at all. And then, perhaps it would become easier to make the case for a full boycott. But let\u2019s put ourselves in the mind of someone who, as a result of labelling, chooses not to buy West Bank settlement produce. Now they can make a choice to buy from within the green-line. And it seems safe to assume that they probably were boycotting all products beforehand for fear of buying those created in the settlements. That may not sit comfortably with those of us who believe boycotts of Israeli products are counter-productive and do nothing to change the hearts and minds of anyone in the region, but that is the reality. The choice that a person makes to go into a supermarket, see a label, and not buy a product is for many people a simple way of showing solidarity or disquiet with a political situation, rather than a full-blown hatred of Israel as a Jewish state. No Israeli government machine, and no protest against labelling by the Board of Deputies, is going to convince someone who is angry with Israel for its on-going occupation of the West Bank, that they are doing something wrong when they don\u2019t choose the wine from Efrat.\nThe situation in the West Bank is not set to change. If the election polls are anything to go by, we will see another term for Benjamin Netanyahu and his minions. This time they may just be slightly more right wing and more religious. So we should assume that Israeli presence on the West Bank will become further entrenched and calls for labelling will therefore get louder. Supporters of Israel do not need to support a boycott of the West Bank, but we should take a deep breath before we scream about labelling being the slippery slope to a full boycott and Israel being unfairly singled out. The \u2018enemies\u2019 of Israel inside the pro-labelling camp aren\u2019t going anywhere regardless of who is in power\u2014they\u2019ll be there the day after Palestine is created. But these are not the people we should worry about. We must consider the average concerned citizen who sees his wallet as a form of political statement. Perhaps we should be highlighting the opportunity it creates: for people to buy products produced inside the green-line, when previously they refused to do so on account of not knowing their source of origin.\nOne thing\u2019s for sure: the concerned citizens will grow in numbers, and if they cannot choose to not buy wine from Efrat, they won\u2019t be buying Israeli wine at all.",

        "raw_content": "Rules on the verge of passing would be first in Iowa, supporter says\n(FILE PHOTO) A \"vote here\" sign rests outside University Heights City Hall on Tuesday, April 3, 2018. (Madison Arnold/The Gazette).\nThe tiny enclave of University Heights could become the first city in Iowa to ban the use of racial profiling in policing.\nOrdinance 235 \u2014 spearheaded by City Council members Silvia Quezada and Nick Herbold \u2014 prohibits the use of \u201cexplicit or implicit biases,\u201d especially in relation to profiling or discriminatory policing practices. It would establish a citizen advisory board to resolve complaints against officers over discriminatory practices and annually review police data.\n\u201cThis was not something that I thought we needed in order to address an existing problem,\u201d said Herbold, who serves as chair of the city\u2019s Community Protection Committee. \u201cBut I think it is something that is needed in order to ensure this community is welcoming and respectful of all people and that we are doing all we can to eliminate bias from our police practices. And I\u2019m not saying we had issues with bias previous to us creating this ordinance, I am just saying we want to have clear policies and procedures in place to ensure explicit or implicit biases so not play a part in enforcement activities.\u201d\nThe ordinance is expected to go before the City Council on Tuesday for its final consideration. If passed, Quezada said, it would be the first of its kind in Iowa.\nThe advisory board the ordinance envisions would be made up of at least three city residents, according to records, as well as a person who \u201cholds or held a position in law enforcement of no less than five years\u201d and a member of the NAACP.\nOnce established, the board would review \u201ccomplaints of profiling, discriminatory policing practices and allegations of prohibited disparate treatment\u201d that could be lodged against officers, as well as review University Heights Police Department enforcement data each year.\nAdditionally, the ordinance calls for an expansion in the department\u2019s collection of enforcement data to gather information about all contacts officers have with members of the public. For each interaction, Quezada said officers would be required to report specific data such as the race, gender and age of the person, as well as the reason for the contact.\nQuezada said the reporting technology is the same used by Iowa City police and shouldn\u2019t create an undue burden.\n\u201cFrom what I understand, they can fill in these data points at the same time they are writing up their daily reports,\u201d she said. \u201cWe just have to update the data collection technology.\u201d\nThat software is expected to cost the city about $1,800 for the initial installment, according to records.\nAs part of the data collection program, Herbold said the city has opted to hire an independent expert to review and analyze the data. Records show $5,000 has been allocated from the general fund to \u201cobtain bench marks and insight into the analysis of the data.\u201d\nFinally, the ordinance requires that all police officers undergo annual implicit bias training.\nAccording to the city\u2019s website, the force is made up of four full-time officers \u2014 including the chief \u2014 and three part-time officers.\nQuezada said the measure was devised with input from the Iowa-Nebraska NAACP, the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa and the Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement as a pre-emptive move that would bolster public confidence in a police force that has been in flux.\n\u201cThe police department has had a sort of revolving door when it comes to police chiefs and other staff,\u201d she said. \u201cThere have been three police chiefs appointed in the past three years, and we\u2019ve seen a lot of turnover with the rest of the staff as well.\u201d\nUniversity Heights, with a population of about 1,100, has long been considered a speed trap to many who drive through the area to get to Hawkeye football games or the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.\nAn investigation two years ago by The Gazette found the city issued speeding tickets at a rate nearly 100 times higher than Iowa City in fiscal 2016. That report, Quezada said, \u201cgot me thinking about how much contact our officers have with the public.\u201d\n\u201cI have no reason to believe that there was any bias or disparate impact involved in those interactions,\u201d she said. \u201cSo for me this ordinance was more of a pre-emptive action to make sure our officers are trained in a way that will ensure those interactions do not have a negative impact on the public.\u201d\nHerbold\u2019s resolution also allocates $3,000 to pay for an \u201cLED speed limit sign that monitors drivers\u2019 speed with radar.\u201d That sign is to be prominently displayed on Melrose Avenue, a major arterial.\nStatewide legislation was proposed last year by Sen. Brad Zaun, R-Urbandale, but the bill never came to a vote.\nHis bill also called for date collection on traffic stops and city and professional advisory boards.\nZaun brought the bill forward again in January and it has advanced out of a subcommittee.",

Photograph: C Flanigan/FilmMagic\nHi, Justin, where are you?\nI am eating vegetarian food in a Japanese restaurant in London. Five days a week, I only eat vegan, and mostly vegetables. I do eat meat or fish if it's been spectacularly prepared, and has died in an accident.\nNice. You're looking good in your new press photos. Have you lost weight?\nYes, I was 15/16st. I'm just under 11st now.\nHow did you lose so much?\nA combination of bulimia and speed. No, the key is to stop eating meat and fish, and stop drinking milk. Just drink water. Get rid of bread. Oh, and go to the gym every day.\nI see you've got a goatee and moustache.\nYes, the moustache happened in 2009, and when we started doing the Darkness again [in 2010] the rest of the guys talked me into growing a beard, which I was resistant to, but now I love.\nYou're also quite heavily tattooed.\nYes, I've got one of a winged microphone, a \"mind-sword\", the TDK logo, and one of vintage mid-'80s synthesizer the DX7 \u2013 as used by Queen \u2013 that I had done in 2008.\nWhy did you decide to have a vintage mid-'80s synthesizer engraved on your arm?\nBecause I have one in my synthesizer collection at home, and they make me laugh.\nAny other tattoos we should know about? I have individual images of the members of Queen, from the album Hot Space on my fingers. I thought someone should stick up for Hot Space \u2013 the contentious, disowned Queen album \u2013 so I did. It's a really iconic piece of artwork, and Under Pressure is on the record. I also have \"Lowestoft\" tattooed on my stomach.\nSo rappers have \"Compton\", you have Lowestoft?\nYeah, I'm on the East Side. Of England.\nDo you still live in Lowestoft?\nYes, I live near where I went to school. I'm literally five minutes from my mum and dad. I go round every day. I take my dogs there and hang out.\nDo you take your washing?\nNo, I enjoy doing laundry. It's part of the grounding process.\nWhat's it like there?\nI rent a house next to a nature reserve and a football pitch, and a beach \u2013 a wild one, where people go to do dogging. There's a lot of sex that happens in the bushes. I see men standing in them, fully erect. Happens all the time. It used to be a nudist area. Great place to walk the dogs, although it's not ideal if you don't want to see men's cocks.\nYou imagine it's the least likely people who go dogging.\nI know. You expect people like me to do it, but you'd never catch me dogging.\nNo. Contrary to popular expectation.\nYou're single, aren't you? (1) What's it like?\nYou miss your pets when you're away from them. When you're away on tour and you've got a girlfriend, there's always the check-in phone call: before the gig, after the gig, whatever. I didn't think I'd miss that \u2013 it was one of the things that annoyed me about having a relationship \u2013 but actually now it's gone, I sort of do. And I can't ring my dog. He's no good at Skype. And FaceTime's out of the question.\nMuch has been made of your period of bacchanalian excess. For example, you once made a male lackey feed you spaghetti bolognese in a lift. Hardly Caligula, though, is it?\nAh, but you don't know how he came to be in a lift with me...\nThere has been a lot of alcoholic and narcotic excess in the Darkness' history, but not much of the sexual variety \u2026\nWhen you're in a relationship with the manager of the band, it's quite difficult to, you know ... These days, I'm too focused for that: I get up, have porridge and water and really strong black coffee for breakfast, then I run 6km, then I do my weights, then it's time to warm up my voice because I get up late, and then two hours before the show I put my makeup on and do my stretches. Then there's the show. Winding down for me doesn't involve fucking \u2013 I wouldn't be able to do my morning thing the next day.\nYou're one of the few metal bands that women like.\nYeah. I think we're all a bit effeminate. We're not men's men, much as we may appear to be so.\nAre you, to paraphrase Suede's Brett Anderson, a heterosexual who's never had a homosexual experience? (2)\nMy sexual persuasion is nobody's business but my own \u2013 but I'm easily persuaded. Just kidding. Is that a genuine question about my sexuality?\nI want to go back to that sexuality thing. You reckon I'm gay, don't you?\nEr, are you gay?\nNone of your business! It's funny because it came up recently in a German interview. They reckoned that when you Google Justin Hawkins, one of the first things that comes up is: \"Is Justin Hawkins gay?\" And I'd like to think that's because there's something I do that connects with a gay audience. Maybe it's all the cocks I suck?\nTalking of sex, in the video to your latest single Everybody Have a Good Time, you get intimate with a bear.\nIt was going to be a monkey, but animatronic monkey faces were too terrifying. So we came up with the bear. Unfortunately, the record company said it would be too expensive to have an animatronic one , so it had to be a guy in a bear costume. With a bra on.\nHave you ever had amorous feelings towards an animal?\nWell, when you're in a field in the fresh air, you can become amorous, and there might happen to be animals present. But it's more to do with the climate, and the rustling of leaves. That gets me going.\nThere's a Radiohead cover (3) on your new album. Was that to prick their pomposity?\nNo. It was to inflate ours. People used to say we must hate Radiohead, but we don't, we love them. I don't know anyone who doesn't love Radiohead. This was our chance to show our respect.\nWho is the foremost pompous, preening ninny in pop?\nWell, it used to be me. I thought pop was all about pompous, preening ninnies.\nLook at Jagger.\nExactly. That guy from Maroon 5 doesn't have moves like Jagger. He's maybe got moves like Jagger's waxwork at Madame Tussaud's.\nYou sing on your track, Every Inch Of You, \"I wanted to be a doctor or a vet until I heard Communication Breakdown.\" True?\nWhen I was a kid I wanted to be either a helicopter pilot, or a doctor or a vet. And I'm sure mum would have loved any of those. Maybe not helicopter pilot. Dad would have liked that.\nAre they disappointed in your choice of career?\nNot at all. They're delighted. Over the moon. My father's a builder and he's worked all his life and he just wanted me and Dan [Hawkins, his guitarist brother] to not have to.\nCan you afford to not work any more?\nNo, I have to work. Spiritually as well as financially.\nIt was once alleged that you personally blew \u00a3150,000 on cocaine ...\nThat's a massive exaggeration. It was actually \u00a3149,000.\nWas it you who spent it, or the whole band?\nNo, just me.\nYou said you wanted to write the world's simplest, dumbest rock song with Everybody Have a Good Time. Did you achieve your aim?\nNo, there are simpler ones out there.\nWhat is the world's simplest, dumbest rock song?\nWe Will Rock You? That might be it.\nDoes it take a genius to write something that simple and dumb?\nI think so, yeah. Or somebody very brave. Or an idiot.\nDid you really once write jingles for Ikea?\nI did, yes. That's how we paid for the first album. It was TV adverts. I did HSBC, Tango, Mars bars, Irn Bru, the Sunday Express gardening supplement TV ad \u2013 I've been running a jingle company for the last 15 years.\nYou're about to tour with Lady Gaga. Do you get nervous with stars in a higher commercial league than you?\nI'm in awe of Lady Gaga. I love the mystique around her, and the way she's this entity all the time. You never see her without full make-up, or pictures of her going to the supermarket wearing something baggy. She's 100% an artist; a work of art. That's what I aspire to be. She's a hero. So it's going to be weird meeting her. But it's got nothing to do with earnings.\nWhat is the ratio of piss-take to authentic in what you do? 90/10?\nThere's no piss-take. All of it is affection. My mum would often recount hilarious tales of hanging around with Jimi Hendrix and Brian Jones. She wasn't a groupie, I'd like to stress. But she was around in the 60s and in that scene and she loved and knew all those people. I say \"knew\" \u2013 not in that sense. But she ran in the same circles. Anyway, her and my aunty had a lot of famous friends. And they talked about Brian Jones turning up at a club in a pink catsuit, and the way Hendrix used to dress. All we're doing is affectionately doing music the way it should be done, and wearing the correct uniform.\nYou worked with Queen's producer Roy Thomas Baker on your second album. What did he make of you?\nHe often compared me to the obvious, and that was lovely.\nAs singer and guitarist, you're Freddie (Mercury) and Brian (May) in one, aren't you?\nI always wanted to be Freddie, Brian, Angus (Young) and Bon (Scott) in one. Those are my four touchstones.\nThere's a track on your new album called Nothing's Gonna Stop Us. What could conceivably stop you?\nWill your album, Hot Cakes, sell like hot cakes?\nI couldn't care less. Although bear in mind I live in a big house in the country and drive a sports car.\nIs winning an Ivor Novello still the highpoint of your career? (4)\nYes. There is no higher accolade.\nHow could you top it?\nIt would be great if I could die and people still not know whether I'm gay or not. That would be an achievement. To get to heaven and St Peter goes: \"Well?\"\n(1) Hawkins was previously in a relationship with the Darkness' manager.\n(2) Anderson once declared to Melody Maker: \"I'm a bisexual who's never had a homosexual experience.\"\n(3) They do a version of Street Spirit (Fade Out) that Thom would surely just love. Back to article\n(4) The Darkness were named Songwriters of the Year.\n\u2022 This article was amended on 28 August 2012 to tidy up a grammatical slip in the section relating to the purchase of cocaine.",

Photograph: Jon Super for the Guardian\nUltra-Orthodox Jewish parents and teachers are warning that schools may go underground and children be educated at home if the government presses ahead with guidance on teaching about same-sex relationships and gender reassignment.\nMembers of the Haredi, or ultra-Orthodox, community also say that some parents may leave the country rather than see their children taught about \u201calternative lifestyles\u201d.\nLawyers for Shraga Stern, a Haredi parent, recently sent a letter to the secretary of state for education, Damian Hinds, saying: \u201cMany members of the community would choose to leave the United Kingdom for a more hospitable jurisdiction rather than comply with such an obligation to mention homosexuality or gender reassignment in a positive context at school.\u201d\nStern said sex education was a \u201cprivate matter\u201d within families and it was inappropriate to teach \u201cinnocent children\u201d about such things. \u201cWe teach our children, at home and in school, to respect every person, but we will not teach them about LGBT issues,\u201d he told the Observer.\nThe Department for Education\u2019s draft advice to independent schools says that secondary school children should know about \u201cprotected characteristics\u201d under the 2010 Equality Act, which include gender reassignment and sexual orientation. Primary school children should be \u201caware of the ways in which people can be different and be respectful of those differences\u201d.\nStern, who has seven children aged between one and 12, said he faced four options if the DfE advice was formally issued: to launch a legal challenge; to leave the country; to \u201cgo underground\u201d or home school his children; or for his children\u2019s schools to refuse to comply as a \u201cbadge of honour\u201d.\nAlthough the guidance is non-statutory, Ofsted inspectors and the DfE will take it into account when assessing schools or taking action. The advice is expected to be formally issued later this year.\nAccording to figures released by the Institute for Jewish Policy Research (JPR) last week, more than 20,000 children in the UK attend state-funded and independent ultra-Orthodox schools. In addition, a \u201csignificant number of Haredi teenagers\u201d study in yeshivas (religious schools) not included in DfE figures, said the JPR. A report published by Hackney council this month said that up to 1,500 Jewish boys were attending 29 unregistered yeshivas in the area, which includes a large Haredi population.\nAt Beis Soroh Schneirer, an independent school for 280 Haredi girls aged three to 11 in Hendon, north London, proprietor Rabbi Anthony Adler quoted Leviticus 18, the biblical passage that describes homosexual relations as \u201can abomination\u201d.\nHe said: \u201cWe teach our children British values such as the rule of law, mutual respect and tolerance, but we will not spell out alternative lifestyles. We want to preserve their innocence and purity.\u201d\nRabbi Avrohom Pinter, the principal of Yesodey Hatorah, a state-funded girls\u2019 secondary school in Stamford Hill, said: \u201cWe are totally opposed to homophobia. The issue for us is maintaining the innocence of our children. We feel society is sexualising children at an early age and we don\u2019t want to do that.\u201d\nLast year Yesodey Hatorah was classed as inadequate by Ofsted inspectors, who found that books had been heavily censored or redacted to block references or images that the school felt inappropriate, including passages from Sherlock Holmes, references to human or animal reproduction, and images showing bare ankles and wrists.\n\u201cMany parents are concerned about children going to libraries. We need to provide a safe space,\u201d said Pinter. \u201cSometimes we might have gone a bit overboard in our redactions to gain the confidence of the parents. We\u2019re reviewing it all now.\u201d\nOfsted has been accused by the Haredi community of being \u201cunduly obsessed\u201d with its schools and of being driven by a \u201csecularist agenda\u201d.\nAccording to Geoffrey Alderman, a prominent member of the Orthodox community, \u201cit\u2019s now a badge of honour for Orthodox Jewish schools to be failed by Ofsted on the grounds they are not teaching about alternative lifestyles. As Jewish parents are searching around for schools, they\u2019re particularly interested in ones that have been criticised by Ofsted.\u201d\nLast July, Ephraim Mirvis, the chief rabbi, said that relations between Ofsted and the community \u201curgently need to be repaired\u201d. According to Pinter, there has been a \u201cmore conciliatory\u201d approach in recent months.\nAn Ofsted spokesperson said the vast majority of faith schools provided a good or outstanding education, including 87% of Jewish state faith schools.\n\u201cMost faith schools \u2013 state and independent \u2013 see no contradiction between teaching the tenets of their faith and the legal requirement to promote British values, including respect for democracy and the rule of law or to encourage respect for people with different characteristics such as those of a different faith, sexual orientation or race.\n\u201cHowever, for the small minority who will not comply with the law, it is Ofsted\u2019s duty to report those failings so that action can be taken to improve or close these schools.\u201d\nThe DfE said a consultation on the draft advice had now closed and it was considering responses. Stern said he was \u201cconfident that the government understands [its advice] is a red line that will never be crossed. Something will be worked out.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "A fresh i for BBC\nThe BBC has redesigned its main website and is streamlining and rebranding all its new media operations. Katherine Everett tells Owen Gibson how it will work\nThe builders have been busy at Bush House. A new reception area now leads straight into the buzzing corridors of the BBC's new media department. No longer do visitors have to traverse the musty corridors of the World Service to get into the heartland of the corporation's digital future. And the physical transformation outside heralds significant changes within.\nAt the height of the dot.com bubble it became de rigueur among even the most staid businesses to add an e to the front of your name or an i to the end in an effort to look as though you were part of the cutting edge of the digital age. Now the BBC has got in on the act, rebranding all its online, digital text and interactive television properties as BBCi.\n\"The i stands for interactive but it also stands for innovation,\" proclaims Katherine Everett, the BBC's controller of new media, appointed earlier this year to oversee the rebranding effort. Formerly controller of the digital channel BBC Choice and then head of interactive TV, she is friendly yet businesslike in her demeanour. Not for her the outrageous proclamations of a dot.com chief or the profile-heightening outbursts of some of her contemporaries - new media or old, this is still the BBC, after all.\nUsers can now see the fruits of her labours. The main BBC site which, despite housing fantastic content, always looked a little shoddy and was hard to get around, has a new look, promising better design and easier navigation. There are also plans to beef up the community side, by placing greater emphasis on chat, message boards and user interaction. To tie in with the launch of impressive new interactive television initiatives, its onscreen services have also been given a makeover with digital viewers able to call up the BBCi navigation bar from any BBC channel.\n\"It's introducing the idea of a gateway, when you see those four letters together you know you're at a gateway to great interactive content whatever platform you're on,\" explains Everett, emphasising a cross-platform approach that takes in computers, mobile phones and PDAs, and interactive digital television across Sky, ITV Digital and the cable companies. Not only is this approach desirable in an age when we want our content wherever we are, it's essential for a BBC desperate to prove that it is spending our licence fees in a democratic fashion.\nNot a fan of technology for its own sake, Everett is keen to stress that the new logo represents much more than a simple repackaging of existing services. Slipping momentarily into the kind of spiel of which director-general Greg Dyke is fond, she says: \"It's also about a new state of mind internally. It's about a state of mind that's much more audience-focused. We've got all this great content but we've got to make it easier for audiences to find and interact with.\"\nShe is particularly proud of the new search function. \"It was something of a mess in the past,\" she admits. \"The search team have done a brilliant job in building an engine that provides users with a real guide to the subject they are searching for.\"\nOne could argue that, given the BBC's head start in the digital arena and the not insubstantial sums of cash spent on it, these issues should have been addressed before now. \"We know we've got masses of content and lots of it can't easily be found,\" says Everett. \"The site has grown organically with lots of areas that have developed at different times. The time has come to bring a bit of rigour. What the BBC needs is a single interactive brand that stands as a beacon of trust and quality.\"\nThis outward-facing restructure has been accompanied by a rejig of the new media department, putting Everett in day-to-day control of not only the online side of things but also interactive TV and the \"imagineering\" department, which focuses on research and development. This restructure has been under way since outspoken director of new media Ashley Highfield arrived from Flextech last year. A long time was spent discussing it, says Everett. The result is a senior management team with a cross-platform view, while retaining heads of interactive TV and PC internet to champion those particular audiences.\n\"What I and others are aiming for is a world where producers have an idea that has a different life on different platforms, rather than a world where ideas are primarily for television with bits added on,\" says Everett. \"That's why one of the roles of new media is to do as little as possible and to be a facilitator for content ideas.\" Another important remit is to take viewers beyond the programming content, she says. \"Walking With Dinosaurs has been off-air for a while but the site has become probably the leading resource in the world for prehistoric study.\"\nThe issue of repurposing content is a thorny one. One criticism continually levelled at the BBC's new media operation, even by those who work there, is that it is on the Chris Moyles side of flabby. The Radio 1 website and the BBC.co.uk entertainment news will work independently on similar content, for example. Or there will be a reticence to share content between the various sites. \"That was true in the past and things have changed absolutely dramatically in the last year,\" counters Everett. \"Even I'm surprised how much people are aware of duplication now and if there is any we discuss it. Often there's a good reason for it - during the Edinburgh Festival, the Radio 3 site and the local Edinburgh site both covered it but from completely different perspectives.\"\nOver the past five years, the BBC has spent a fortune building what is generally agreed to be one of the finest websites in the world. Reaching 35% of the UK's web population in any given month, it provokes both envy and criticism from the commercial competition. They have long derided the fact that the BBC has spent so much public money building up a service that covers some of the same ground as commercial competitors. This view is given added poignancy by the fact that its strongest proponent, British Internet Publishers Association chairman and former Sportal boss Rob Hersov, has just seen his dot.com dream crumble.\nIt's an argument Everett has obviously heard before. \"I was comparing our news site to Guardian Unlimited and CNN the other day and they're completely different,\" she says. \"We have been careful to avoid copycat services that could easily be replicated elsewhere. On the other hand, there are people who want to come to a trusted UK content provider, particularly people with families.\"\nEverett's answer doesn't deviate much from the party line but remains pretty persuasive. \"We are there to offer a great interactive experience and to innovate,\" she adds. \"Particularly now in a difficult economic market. The BBC owes it to its licence payers to try new things. We have an obligation to experiment with this technology and come up with great services.\"\nFlush with its relaunch, the success of its interactive Wimbledon service and lauded for the Bafta Interactive Award-winning Walking With Beasts even before it's been broadcast, BBCi is in rude health. The contrast with a moribund commercial sector couldn't be more striking. But ironically, in these difficult times, the virtues of the BBC's huge investment in new media will perhaps become clear to even its harshest critics.",

        "raw_content": "Jamie Murray suggests UK tennis failed to capitalise on brother's decade at top\nPlaying numbers dropped during Andy Murray era\n\u2018Not much to show for everything he\u2019s put in\u2019\nKevin Mitchell at Melbourne Park\nAndy Murray\u2019s brother, Jamie, and mother, Judy, watch what was probably the former world No 1\u2019s last match. Photograph: Dave Shopland/Rex/Shutterstock\nThe longstanding perception that British tennis wasted Andy Murray\u2019s ascent to the upper reaches of the game over the past decade was given further substance by the Scot\u2019s older brother, Jamie, at the Australian Open on Wednesday.\nWimbledon without surgery is \u2018option B\u2019 but Murray has a plan to ponder | Kevin Mitchell\n\u201cMy greatest worry was that he would stop one day, which obviously feels like it\u2019s been probably accelerated,\u201d he said, \u201cand you would look around the country, whether that\u2019s Scotland or the whole of the UK, and there wouldn\u2019t be much to show for everything he\u2019s put into his career and the success that he\u2019s had and the interest that he\u2019s created around tennis.\n\u201cIf you go around the country, you probably see that. And that is sad because how on earth are you going to grow a sport if you can\u2019t do it when you\u2019ve got one of the biggest stars in tennis for the last 10 years, and one of Britain\u2019s most prominent sportspeople?\u201d\nThe question was as pointed as it was rhetorical. As the younger Murray said after losing in the first round on Monday\u2013 probably his farewell appearance \u2013 it is remarkable that playing numbers have dropped during his time in the game.\nThe root causes of how the Lawn Tennis Association has failed to capitalise on the former world No 1\u2019s success \u2013 as well as that of his brother and a handful of other highly ranked players \u2013 are complicated. But funding is at the heart of the problem.\nAs Jamie Murray pointed out before his first doubles match of the 2019 Australian Open on Thursday, much depends still on circumstances, personal sacrifice and access to facilities.\nAndy Murray during his first-round defeat at the Australian Open on Monday. Photograph: Ella Ling/BPI/Rex/Shutterstock\nDescribing their early years in Dunblane, he said: \u201cIt is an amazing story. We\u2019ve come from a small town in Scotland, 8,000 people max. Our mum obviously tried to do what she could to create opportunities for us and for the other players, first at Dunblane and then on a more national level.\n\u201cOur parents made incredible sacrifices for us, working Monday to Friday and then getting in the car and then driving us down to England for the weekend, play tournaments, come back, back to work, do the same thing again.\n\u201cWe were obviously fortunate that we had indoor courts close to us \u2013 a lot of people in Scotland don\u2019t have access to that \u2013 so we could continue playing through the winter in better situations, I guess.\n\u201cBut to go from that to getting to the top of the game and winning grand slams ... he did 11 grand slam finals, it\u2019s incredible, really. Helping us to win Davis Cup for the first time in however many years, it\u2019s a pretty decent achievement.\u201d\nMurray said his most memorable moment alongside his brother was playing Davis Cup doubles against Australia in Glasgow in 2015.\n\u2018I just get the sense Andy\u2019s not quite ready to quit yet\u2019, says Judy Murray\n\u201cThere have been so many amazing moments. I wasn\u2019t there when he won Wimbledon for the first time [in 2013]. Probably, the Davis Cup matches in Scotland [were the highlight moments]. The reception, the support. The Australia one was amazing. Playing with him. The way we were able to get through that match. That was cool. I would put that one up there.\u201d\nAs for his brother\u2019s uncertain future, Murray said: \u201cHonestly I don\u2019t know. I really don\u2019t know. He\u2019s obviously got to go and do his surgery, which is a pretty big surgery to get.\n\u201cOther athletes have done that surgery and come back to do their sport \u2013 I don\u2019t know how successfully or at what level they\u2019re playing at. Bob Bryan\u2019s had the surgery that Andy\u2019s got and he\u2019s back playing now, but obviously it\u2019s a lot easier to do that in doubles rather than singles. So, we\u2019ll see.\n\u201cFor me, I just hope that, whatever happens, he can get back to just regular life, pain free, and be able to enjoy himself and not be in constant pain. If he\u2019s able to come back and play tennis, if that\u2019s what he wants to do, then I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll give it everything he can. But I think for me it\u2019s just important that he gets back to regular life. I hope obviously, if he does get surgery, that that does go well for him.\u201d\nAndy is expected in the next few days to decide whether to have top-surface surgery, possibly in the United States, or to wait, try to stay fit without it and have one last match at Wimbledon this summer \u2013 or maybe more.",

        "raw_content": "Hike the Trahlyta Lake Trail to Trahlyta Falls\nRate this Adventure Trahlyta Lake Trailhead\nChillin, Fishing, Photography, Kayaking, Hiking\nTake an easy stroll around one of Georgia\u2019s most scenic alpine lakes in Vogel State Park and discover a breathtaking waterfall.\nLake Trahlyta in Vogel State Park offers a truly unique combination of natural beauty and opportunity for recreation. The easy one-mile Lake Trahlyta trail circles the emerald colored lake and has a short deviation that leads to a calming, yet impressive waterfall.\nThe trail starts on the edge of the lake nearest the parking lot and visitor\u2019s center. You can take the trail either direction, but I will walk you through it as if you were going counter-clockwise. Once you start on the trail, you will follow along the lake, walking parallel to the entrance road into the state park. On this side of the like you will find trees on both sides of you, although there are many clearings with awesome lake views. You will reach the opposite end of the oval-shaped lake after about 0.3 miles, where the trees clear up and there is ample open shoreline to fish from.\nOn this short end of the lake, you will find the spillover. This spillover passes underneath the trail, and leads to the waterfall on the right side. You cannot really see the waterfall from this main part of the trail, so you will need to follow the signs to Trahlyta falls, where you will go along a short trail and down some stairs about 100 yards to a viewing platform which is about two-thirds of the way down the cascading falls. You can further carefully navigate your way down the steep slope to make it to the base of the waterfall.\nOnce you have gotten your waterfall fix in, head back up the side trail the way you came and continue your way around the loop counter-clockwise. On the following longer stretch of lake, you will find some waterfront cabins and swing benches. This is a great place to just sit and watch the sun glisten on the surface of the clear lake. Before you make it all the way back to the parking lot you will find a small sand beach with an enclosed swimming area and canoes and paddle boats for rent in the warmer months of the year. There is also a fishing dock and a pavilion in the same general area.\nIf you find yourself in the area, I definitely recommend stopping in for this easy stroll around this beautiful alpine lake and waterfall. Besides, can you really say you went hiking in North Georgia without seeing a waterfall?\nCamp at Vogel State Park\nHike the Bear Hair Gap Trail\nBackpack the Appalachian Trail from Blood Mountain to Cowrock Mountain\nHike Blood Mountain",

Jenkins did not mention anything specific about the plot for Wonder Woman 2 but, based on the time period and the World War 1 setting from the previous film, it could possibly touch on the Cold War.\nAs for casting news, Gal Gadot will reprise her role as the Amazonian superhero and will be joined by Pedro Pascal (Game of Thrones) in an unnamed role. The original Wonder Woman actress, Lynda Carter, will make an appearance in the film as well. Finally, Kristen Wiig will play Cheetah, a recurring villain in the Wonder Woman comics.\nThe 80\u2019s has the potential to be a fantastic setting for the sequel. It was a decade that became a treasure trove of nostalgia in recent years, and was the most colorful (figuratively and literally) decade in American history. It\u2019s considered the era where everyone just wanted to party and have a good time \u2013 but there was also a looming tension from the Cold War.\nThe first movie was an unexpected success and made great use of its World War 1 setting, leaving fans wondering which conflict in American history she\u2019d appear in next. Seeing Diana Prince storm the beaches of Normandy during World War 2, or fighting in the jungles of Vietnam would\u2019ve been a spectacular sight to watch in theaters. Instead, we\u2019ll be catching up with her in the decade of glam rock and Reaganomics.\nIf done right, this could work. Seeing her face off against Russians while soaking up 80\u2019s culture could be a very fun experience as well.\nWonder Woman 2 is currently slated for a November 1, 2019 release.",

        "title": "There's more to blockchain than dodgy cryptocurrencies \u2022 The Register",
        "raw_content": "There's more to blockchain than dodgy cryptocurrencies\nHyperledger executive director Brian Behlendorf wants to demystify distributed ledgers\nAnalysis At the Open Source Leadership Summit in Sonoma, California, last week, The Register caught up with Brian Behlendorf, executive director of The Hyperledger Project, and had a chance to chat about the state of open source blockchain technology.\nBehlendorf took over the organization in May 2016 after the Linux Foundation announced the project in December 2015. Hyperledger aims to promote the creation of open source code for running distributed ledgers, otherwise known as blockchains.\nA blockchain is made up of blocks of data, chained together with cryptographic hashes and distributed across multiple nodes. It's a sort of shared database that can be verified to prevent tampering.\nBitcoin is the most high profile use of blockchain technology but the strong association between the popular cryptocurrency and its technical underpinnings poses an image problem. The prevalence of fraud in the cryptocurrency world invites doubt about blockchain technology in general. Hence the need for some evangelization.\nBack in 2015, Behlendorf said, when Hyperledger had just been established, he was concerned that the proof-of-work algorithm and the CPU burn that goes along with it would become problems for Bitcoin. But he felt that blockchain technology could help address the growing centralization of the internet.\n\"As the world had gotten more digitized, it had gotten more centralized,\" he said. \"When I saw the Hyperledger announcement, it resonated with me that there are other ways to do it. There are other consensus mechanisms that proof-of-work.\"\nBitcoin's proof-of-work mechanism, through which new coins are created, demands calculations that are difficult to produce but easy to verify. Hence Bitcoin miners need massive computing power to generate the cryptocurrency, which gets tracked through its decentralized blockchain network.\nProof-of-work matters when you have anonymous participants in the network; but most of the business world, said Behlendorf, doesn't need that.\nBehlendorf believes blockchains will play a prominent role in a growing number of legitimate business activities that have nothing to do with cryptocurrencies.\n\"At first, when I saw the Hyperledger announcement, I thought it was the old guard trying to be cool again,\" he said, likening the situation to a middle-age man showing up at a skateboard park, with elbow-pads and knee-pads bought on Amazon, saying, \"Hey kids, hold my beer.\"\nBut, Behlendorf said, the companies involved, including IBM and Intel among others, weren't quite so clueless and in the almost two years since he started running the organization, Hyperledger now has two projects \u2013 Fabric and Sawtooth - that are available as production-ready releases.\n\"Having two frameworks out there for some has been confusing,\" he said. \"But we have MySQL and Cassandra. We have Linux-based and iOS-based phones. There's more than one way to slice an egg. Right now, it's this Cambrian explosion kind of moment where it's worth mapping the landscape rather than being Teutonic about it.\"\nBehlendorf expects a consolidation event at some point, but right now is more concerned about exploring the technological possibilities.\nIn addition to its two production-ready blockchain frameworks, Hyperledger has taken seven other initiatives (distributed ledger frameworks and tools) under its wing, ranging from an implementation of the Ethereum smart contract engine (Burrow) to a distributed digital identity system (Indy) to an interoperability platform for doing transactions across ledgers (Quilt).\nThe organization's initial supporters, a group of 30 organizations, has meanwhile ballooned into more than 190 companies, nonprofits, schools and government agencies. About of quarter of the project's members are in mainland China.\nAs a indicator of interest in Hyperledger tech, Behlendorf pointed to an online blockchain course on edX that has attracted some 75,000 to register. \"That says to me there's a tremendous appetite for people to upskill in this space,\" he said.\nCompanies, said Behlendorf, are moving more cautiously, piloting the technology but not jumping in all at once.\n\"These are the kinds of projects that, because they tend to be at the heart of transaction systems, aren't like a blog,\" he explained. \"They're not something you'd just add and then tear back down.\"\nBut there are live examples running in production. Behlendorf pointed to Everledger, which uses Hyperledger Fabric to track diamonds through the supply chain. \"That's already caught millions of dollars of attempted fraud,\" he said.\nAlso, he said, IBM is using the technology in an internal product financing chain with suppliers that they claim has created $60 million in value. And CLS Bank plans to go live this year with a payment netting platform built on Hyperledger Fabric.\n\"This isn't the kind of thing like Wordpress where there's going to be suddenly 10,000 deployments in a few months,\" he said. \"But there are I bet 10,000 engineers with their hands right now taking Fabric or Sawtooth or Indy through their paces.\"\nBehlendorf said one of the important tasks for Hyperledger is to demystify the technology. \"People are told about these machines solving complex mathematical problems when all they're doing is like guessing things and running SHA-256 against it, which is not a big deal. In our system, it's really a distributed database that anybody can write to.\"\nThe magic, he says, comes from the consensus mechanisms \u2013 Byzantine fault tolerance, Raft consensus mechanism, or proof of elapsed time. \"These are tools to help guarantee the integrity of the system, but also to ensure that individuals can't frontrun other transactions,\" he explained, noting that techniques for dealing with issues like network latency \u2013 which can mess up a distributed database \u2013 still have to be refined.\nAnother important task is making the technology more approachable through tutorials and outreach, to help ease the path to corporate adoption.\nWhat's the technology good for? \"Any integration challenge where there's enough complexity that arises from correlating the efforts of multiple partners,\" said Behlendorf, who argues that distributed ledgers can help wean the world from the centralized hub-and-spoke model where some large entity serves as the intermediary between two parties involved in a transaction.\nHe points to a project being developed in the Philippines that involves the six largest banks there. When completed, he said, it will allow customers to move their data \u2013 transactions, credit histories, and the like \u2013 between institutions, control how it gets shared, and even remove their data from a bank if, say, a loan application has been denied.\nBehlendorf contends blockchain technology will shake up how business transactions are done, particularly in the finance and healthcare sectors.\n\"I think [IBM CEO] Ginni Rometty to her credit got it right when she said what the internet was to information, blockchain technology will be to transactions, in terms of making them really cheap to record, and easy to verify,\" he said.\nFor some companies, that will mean re-thinking their value proposition.\n\"Anybody who is in the business of being a gateway to information when the internet arose had to reinvent their business,\" said Behlendorf. \"Likewise anybody in the business today of recording transactions and being that trusted third-party at the center will have to reinvent their business, especially those in escrow.\" \u00ae",

        "raw_content": "OMG! 10 Actors Who Actually Did It On Screen\nWhether it\u2019s real life couples, or just really good acting, these actors left our screens hot and steamy. So much so that it\u2019s hard to tell the difference between real sex or just movie magic. It doesn\u2019t help when the actors don\u2019t deny doing the deed, and the rumors spread like wild fire.\nReal life couple (during filming) Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise started filming \u201cEyes Wide Shut\u201d in 1996. The film didn\u2019t actually release until 1999, but the whole production was shrouded with secrecy. So much secrecy in fact, that it wasn\u2019t until 10 years after the movie\u2019s release that star Nicole Kidman spoke out about her nudity and sex scenes with her then husband Tom Cruise. Audiences have been convinced for years that the scenes are real, and Kidman didn\u2019t squash the rumors. She spoke about how director, Stanley Kubrick, had to coax her into performing the kinky scenes with Cruise. In the interview Kidman did confront the rumors that \u201cEyes Wide Shut\u201d was the beginning of the end of her marriage to Cruise, claiming that the couple was really close at the time, and the rumors were false.\nAnother real life couple that shared some on screen steam is Anna Paquin and Steven Moyer. The couple was filming a scene for \u201cTrue Blood\u201d where Anna\u2019s character, Sookie Stackhouse, has a hot make up scene with her main love interest, Steven\u2019s Character, Bill Compton. The scene was actually so hot that viewers were left questioning if the couple actually got intimate on camera. Moyer has been recorded saying, \u201cI think that one great bonus is that we don\u2019t need a fluffer\u201d, during an interview with Entertainment Weekly.\nNot all intimate scenes actual couples, in fact, in this video not all scenes involve two people. In 2008 Robert Pattinson starred as Salvador Dali, in the movie \u201cLittle Ashes\u201d. In the film, there is an iconic scene that shows Pattinson pleasuring himself. The scene seemed so real that audiences even critiqued Pattinson\u2019s O face. The twilight star later revealed to a German Magazine, that the scene was actually authentic, and he was in fact pleasuring himself on camera. He even went on to say that the film almost made him give up acting.\nAnother, very authentic intimate scene listed in this video took place in \u201cThe Brown Bunny\u201d. In this 2003 indie film, actress Chloe Sevigny was relatively unknown. Her character is seen giving director, and male star, Vincent Gallo, fellacio. The first release of the movie was received with horrible reviews; it even had people walking out. The film has now become known for this one scene. Also, the fact that the movie\u2019s director starred in the film, made many women angry as they thought he was taking advantage of Sevigny. Sevigny has come to the films defense, and stated, \u201dI\u2019m really angry at the way everyone\u2019s trivializing it. It\u2019s a really intense romantic scene, really beautiful. It\u2019s not gratuitous, it\u2019s deep. I do it in everyday life. Everybody\u2019s done it, or had it done to them.\u201d\nWith all the tricks Hollywood filmmakers have up their sleeves, it\u2019s hard to tell what\u2019s real and what\u2019s movie magic. These actors\u2019 scenes are so believable, that they still have fans demanding answers. Even after the actors have claimed the scenes are real or not, the rumor mills keep spinning, and fans continue to speculate online. What are some actors who did in on screen that were missed?

        "raw_content": "Snap\u2019s new glasses could make a spectacle of privacy rights: Teitel\nGoogle Glass, the augmented-reality \u201csmart glasses\u201d that failed, epically, to capture the imagination of the general public, did not tank solely on account of their astronomically high price (originally $1,500 U.S.).\nAccording to tech consultant, Ian Altman, writing in Forbes last year, Google Glass floundered because it failed to answer, for a mass audience, two questions that are essential to any tech product\u2019s success: \u201cWhat problem does it solve?\u201d and \u201cWhy would I need it?\u201d\nSnap's Spectacles sunglasses will render it nearly impossible to tell when you are being video-recorded in a crowd, Emma Teitel writes. (HO / AFP/GETTY IMAGES)\nUnfortunately, it turned out that the only customers who could readily answer these questions were well-heeled geeks, a community that knows and loves gadgets, but is historically out to lunch when it comes to fashion.\nAfter all, Google Glass wasn\u2019t merely uncool. It was outright hideous: an inelegant, wiry thing reminiscent of Geordi La Forge\u2019s blindness-corrective visor on Star Trek; an apparatus that may soon enough find its way into a Buzzfeed style-nostalgia list.\nIn other words, it is the future laughingstock of adolescents who will consider it wild that their parents ever thought such a clunky piece of technology could catch on in the mainstream.\nBut the same laughs will not be had, I suspect, at the expense of Google Glass\u2019s progeny: Spectacles. The new wearable technology from Snapchat, or Snap Inc., as the social network recently rebranded itself, has already managed to achieve something Google couldn\u2019t. It has developed wearable technology that is fashionable and cool.\nSpectacles are sunglasses that contain a built-in video camera that enables the wearer to record the world as they see it, hands-free, with the tap of a button on the top left corner of the frames.\nThe device\u2019s battery lasts about a day and an outward facing light alerts people nearby that the camera is in recording mode. It can record up to 30 seconds of footage, which is transferred wirelessly to the app on the wearer\u2019s phone.\nSnap declined comment to the Star for this column, but the company has already launched a slick, sexy, fashion-editorial-style ad campaign, as well as announced that a limited number of Spectacles will be available for purchase later this fall for $129.99. The price is steep, but no steeper than a pair of Nike Air Force 1s.\nAnd it is for this reason that we should be very, very afraid.\nBecause while Google Glass was easy to spot from metres away, thanks to its clunky weirdness (and of course the fact that hardly anyone in the world owned a pair), Spectacles appear in many ways like any other pair of hip, oversized sunglasses.\nThis means that if Snap succeeds where Google failed, and Spectacles catch on, avoiding the product\u2019s gaze may be very difficult, especially in a crowded, public place.\nOf course, if people begin wearing the gadget or some version of it, en masse, we may see a much-needed decrease in the number of concertgoers and music-festival attendees who block the view of revellers behind them by raising their phones up in the air to record footage of the stage. The glasses will allow the hyper-connected to capture those invaluable moments sans phone.\nBut this advantage doesn\u2019t count for much when you consider the likelihood that the glasses will render it nearly impossible to tell when you are being video-recorded in a crowd.\nA phone is easy enough to avoid, but the flashing light of a tiny camera affixed to a pair of sunglasses? Not so much.\nAnd then of course there is the heartening effect the technology could have on wannabe voyeurs and peddlers of revenge porn. You can already picture the college fraternity challenge: \u201cAll right boys, put on a pair of these Snap sunnies and capture as much unsuspecting tail as you can!\u201d\nBut the creepiest Spectacle-inspired thought of all is the possibility that someday, not far off, nobody will care about any of the above \u2014 that in addition to laughing off Google Glass as an ugly failure, young people will also laugh off the notion that such a product and its offspring were ever controversial.\nPrivacy, the right to go about the world unobserved and unrecorded, may not be extinct just yet. But it\u2019s on its way to becoming quaint.",

        "raw_content": "Imagine a person who always, in every circumstance, makes rational decisions with his money. He saves when he ought to and spends exactly as he should spend, in order to maximize the \u201cutility\u201d of whatever wealth he happens to possess. He defers gratification with ease. When he invests, he has instant and total access to all possible information related to every item in his, including the details of every company\u2019s financials and any impactful world events, even if they haven\u2019t reached the news media yet. If he found a $100 bill on the sidewalk, he would immediately go out and invest it in a steel mill.\nMost of us have never met a person like that, but this is how most economists, when they build their models, assume that normal humans behave. All of us\u2014and especially professional financial planners\u2014know that these assumptions are far from what we see in the real world, which makes us question whatever economists tell us about group behavior like the financial and economic markets, laws and regulation, or what consumers will do next.\nAll of this is why a silent cheer went up around the professional investing world when University of Chicago economist Richard Thaler was awarded the 2017 Nobel Prize in Economics by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Thaler spent his entire career exploring the differences between these unrealistically idealized economic assumptions and actual human behavior. He demonstrated that people take mental short-cuts\u2014called \u201cheuristics\u201d\u2014when they make what they believe to be logical decisions. He showed that in the real world, their decisions are often impulsive, and self-control is more of an aspiration than a reality.\nThaler also developed a theory of \u201cmental accounting,\u201d which explained how people make financial decisions by creating separate accounts in their minds\u2014one for college funding, say, and another for retirement, and still another for vacations or a new car. He explored those mental short-cuts and found that people tend to expect more in the future of what they\u2019ve recently experienced (recentcy bias) and uncomfortably often they believe themselves to have more knowledge about their decisions than they actually do.\nAn experiment with a lost ticket uncovered the \u201csunk cost\u201d effect. Thaler found that if people purchased a $100 opera ticket and lost it on the way to the show, they would be unlikely to buy another ticket, reasoning that $200 was too much to pay. But if we were perfectly logical, the only choice upon approaching the ticket counter should be whether it was actually worth $100 to hear the opera, and we had already made that decision when we bought the first ticket.\nThis is actually the second time that the Nobel Prize in Economics has been awarded to behavioral theorists who strayed from the economic party line. Daniel Kahneman won the prize in 2002 for his work with fellow psychologist Amos Tversky on human behavioral biases and systematic irrational behaviors.\nIn the models that economists produced out of their assumptions of perfectly rational, all-knowing investors and consumers, we could never have market bubbles or market crashes, since every market price is right and fair at every moment. In that strange world, nobody would ever pay more than anybody else for a product or service. Thaler\u2019s prize\u2014and Kahneman\u2019s before him\u2014suggest that the world of economics is starting to catch on to the messy decision-making that actually goes on in the real world.\nhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/10/09/richard-thaler-won-the-nobel-prize-for-making-economics-more-human-and-more-real/?tid=sm_tw&utm_term=.492f43ca28d1",

Mourinho made a number of changes to his starting XI, but the United manager has revealed that he had limited options with Chris Smalling, Victor Lindelof, Matteo Darmian, Anthony Martial and Diogo Dalot all unavailable. Whether any or all of the five players mentioned will be available for the trip to Liverpool remains to be seen, while there is also uncertainty surrounding the fitness of Luke S...\nJose Mourinho refuses to disclose team news to MUTV\nManchester United boss Jose Mourinho refuses to give a detailed update on his team news to the club\u2019s in-house television channel. Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho refused to give a detailed update on his team news to the club\u2019s in-house television channel ahead of Wednesday\u2019s Premier League clash with Arsenal. Mourinho is facing a selection dilemma in defence, with Ashley Young suspended, and Victor Lindelof, Chris Smalling and Eric Bailly all currently carrying injuries. Phil Jones and Luke Shaw picked up knocks in Saturday\u2019s 2-2 draw with Southampton, meanwhile, meaning that Mourinho will have to put together a makeshift defence for the clash with the Gunners. The United boss, however, was not prepared to discuss which players would be available, despite bein...",

        "raw_content": "Five Novels Dealing With Time Travel\nThu Jul 12, 2018 11:00am 65 comments 2 Favorites [+]\nFrom The Time Machine (1960)\nTime travel in sci-fi literature tends to be approached in two fundamentally different ways, and these two ways correspond to whether time is seen as objective or subjective. The brute force approach, as I\u2019ll call it, ties in with our common sense intuition that time is an objective feature of reality, that it would keep ticking away regardless of whether or not anyone was there to measure it. In this approach, a machine or device is created (or discovered) that somehow allows its user to travel through time in a non-standard way. The mind travel approach, on the other hand, comports with Einsteinian and Kantian considerations about the mind-dependence of time; in it, travelling into the past is shown to be possible through a sort of rigorous mental training or discipline, with no recourse to technology required.\nPersonally I find the mind travel approach more compelling, but here I want to touch on and recommend two novels from each camp\u2014and one curious outlier.\nThe Time Machine by H.G. Wells is the ur-time travel novel; first published in 1895, it is (of course) where the term \u201ctime machine\u201d originated, and is probably the strongest exemplar of the brute force approach. In it, an unnamed English scientist (simply called \u201cthe time traveller\u201d) builds a machine that carries him over 800,000 years into the future\u2014there he finds that humanity has split into two species: the effete, feckless, surface-dwelling eloi, and the vicious, light-shunning morlocks who feed on them. Filled with ruminations about the fate of civilization and the earth itself, and the long-term ramifications of class division, this book remains a thought-provoking and ultimately moving (and quick!) read.\n11/22/63 by Stephen King is a more recent (2011) time travel story, one of the strongest in decades. In it, Jake Epping, an English teacher, uses a time portal to travel back to 1958 (the only year the portal opens onto), in an attempt to prevent the assassination of John Kennedy. The time portal is a naturally-occurring phenomenon (likened at one point to a bubble floating in ginger ale)\u2014there\u2019s no question of the user having to do anything but step into it; this tale is very much in the brute force camp. King\u2019s initial description of Epping\u2019s experience of 1958 is one of the most evocative pieces of writing I know of\u2014you are transported, via King\u2019s prose, as surely as Epping is. But King\u2019s ultimate slap-down of the \u201ceverything would be fine if only JFK had lived\u201d school of thought is what makes the book significant, and deeply haunting.\nTime and Again (and its 1995 sequel From Time to Time) by Jack Finney (1970), was hailed as \u201cTHE great time-travel story\u201d by Stephen King in the afterword to 11/22/63. It is the greatest exemplar of the mind-travel approach to time travel. Simon Morley, an illustrator in New York City in 1970, is recruited by government agents to participate in The Project\u2014an experimental scheme to send people back in time through what amounts to self-hypnosis. The idea is: immerse yourself in the thinking of a period, don the dress, beliefs and attitudes of the period, and do these things in a place that has remained the same since that period, and\u2014you will literally be there, and then. The Dakota apartment building overlooking Central Park is the \u201ctime machine\u201d of the story\u2014i.e., it\u2019s the unaltered bit of New York architecture that allows Morley to convince himself that he\u2019s in 1882, and thus to successfully appear there. It sounds crazy, but Finney\u2019s meticulous description of the workings of The Project\u2014and his beautifully evocative conjuring of New York in 1882\u2014doesn\u2019t just suspend disbelief; it annihilates it. An enthralling, amiable, and astonishingly researched classic.\nBid Time Return (1975) by Richard Matheson was made into the pretty good but somewhat syrupy movie Somewhere in Time (1980) starring Christopher Reeve, and subsequent editions of the novel bore that title. It is also very much in the mind-travel camp. In it, Richard Collier, a \u201970s-era screenwriter with terminal brain cancer, decides to spend his dying days at an old California resort; once there, he becomes obsessed with a portrait of a 19th century actress who frequented the same hotel. Using a method very much akin to that described in Time and Again, he travels back to 1896, and meets and falls in love with the actress, notwithstanding difficulties created by her over-protective manager. It\u2019s a beautifully written, heartfelt story of a love so powerful that time itself can\u2019t impede it, but part of what makes it a standout for me is its fundamental ambiguity. The story is presented mostly in the form of Collier\u2019s journal entries\u2014what\u2019s unclear is whether the events as depicted are really happening, or a fantasy being spun by a cancer-riddled, deteriorating brain. Matheson himself remains non-committal on this question, right to the last page\u2014no mean feat!\nKindred (1979) by Octavia E. Butler is the outlier. It is often classified as science fiction simply because it is a time-travel story; probably it is best thought of as time-travel fantasy (Mark Twain\u2019s A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur\u2019s Court would be another example of this). A young African-American woman named Dana Franklin is a writer living in present-day Los Angeles. One day she suddenly feels strange, swoons, and finds herself transported back to a plantation in antebellum Maryland, where she has to live as a slave\u2014until she just as suddenly jumps back to the present and normality. Her life becomes a nightmare as these time-shifting leaps continue to happen\u2014she never knows when they are going to happen, or for how long she\u2019ll be trapped in this particularly hellish past. At one point her white husband, Kevin, goes back with her\u2014he becomes trapped in the past for five years. The question of how the time leaps are being accomplished (are they somehow being caused by Dana\u2019s mind? Are they a natural phenomenon? Has Dana been chosen for some inscrutable reason?) is never addressed\u2014and it really doesn\u2019t matter; that\u2019s not what the book is about. What the book is about (among other things) is the hideousness of slavery\u2014how it blighted the lives of the slaves, of course, but also the ruinous and degrading effect it had on the slaveholders. It remains an enthralling, disturbing modern classic.\nPrentis Rollins has over twenty years of experience working as a writer and artist in the comics industry.

        "raw_content": "Home Why Staying Ahead Of Tech is More Vital than Ever\nWhy Staying Ahead Of Tech is More Vital than Ever\tMay 19, 2017Leave a comment\nA growing number of them are prioritizing technology investments, which means advisors who aren\u2019t risking falling behind the curve in productivity and quality of service. According to a recent survey by Financial Planning, zero advisors plan to cut their technology budgets and half plan to increase their spending this year.\nAdvisors that are less productive and those that offer fewer features than the competition tend to lose out on business. Here\u2019s why keeping up with technology is imperative for financial advisors.\nWhat Tech Will Do\nRobo-advisors have raised the bar for financial advisors. In addition to cannibalizing potential clients, the technology is rapidly changing client expectations. A recent survey found that 80% of high net worth individuals under 40 years old would leave a firm that did not integrate new technology like the automated wealth management services provided by robos. Online portals and mobile access to financial accounts and services are quickly moving from a novelty to a necessity for clients, which means advisors ignoring them could be on the chopping block.\nMany financial advisors feel that they have a lot of time to implement these solutions, but in reality, technology accelerates at exponential levels. In just three years, robo-advisor pioneer Wealthfront grew from $7.6 million to more than $2 billion in assets under management (AUM). Riskalyze, a risk alignment platform, has seen a very similar growth trajectory as an increasing number of advisors embrace tech designed to automate and improve upon tasks like assessing a client\u2019s risk tolerance.\nTechnology may be costly to implement and time consuming to learn\u2014and that discourages many financial advisors from deploying much-needed solutions. But headline costs aren\u2019t a complete picture when factoring in things like cost savings and opportunity costs.\nMost financial advisors charge around 1% of a client\u2019s invested assets as a fee, which means that someone with $1 million in assets would pay $10,000 per year. With the vast majority of clients willing to leave a firm that\u2019s lagging in technology, advisors risk losing tens of thousands of dollars per year in revenue by avoiding these investments. The technologies themselves often cost much less than opportunity costs and potential lost business without it.\nCost savings is another key area where technology shines. With the average financial advisor earning more than $80,000 per year according to U.S. News & World Report, is his or her time really best spent doing things that could be automated with a $10,000 software application? It\u2019s time that could instead be spent on more impactful tasks that truly set an advisor apart from the competition.\nResearching Tech in Advance\nPlanning in advance is the best way to mitigate the costs and learning curves uncertainties associated with technology. By comparing various technologies well ahead of implementation, advisors can ensure that they\u2019re selecting the right tools for their needs at a reasonable price. Another benefit is being able to take the time to implement these solutions and properly train staff on how to use them rather than haphazardly throwing the systems into a live environment.\nSome major areas to consider investing in include:\nOnline portals and mobile access\nClient risk assessments and onboarding\nThe financial advisor industry is becoming much more competitive thanks to the rise in technology. Enabling the ability to streamline operations and improve client services, these technologies have raised the bar for advisors in a number of ways. Advisors who aren\u2019t investing in tech risk falling behind the curve and losing out on business.\nGeneral TechnologyAdvisorsTech\nTop Tips on How to Retire from the ProfessionalsMay 18, 2017",

        "raw_content": "Global SVoD subscriptions are predicted to reach 777 million by 2023, according to new data from Digital TV Research.\nThe analysts suggest eleven countries will have more than 10 million SVoD subscriptions by 2023. China and the US will together account for more than half the world\u2019s SVoD subscriptions by that time. The company predicts China will have the most SVoD subs from 2019 \u2013 despite multiple subscriptions being commonplace in the US. China will have 235 million SVoD subscribers by 2023 \u2013 up from 97 million in 2017.\nSimon Murray, principal analyst at Digital TV Research, said: \u201cThe US will have 208 million SVoD subscriptions by 2023; up by an impressive 76 million on 2017 despite its relative maturity. Its share of the global market will fall from 36 per cent in 2017 to 27 per cent by 2023.\u201d\nDigital TV Research says that by 2023, Netflix will contribute 192 million subscriptions (25 per cent of the 777 million subscriptions), Amazon Prime Video 120 million (15 per cent), China 235 million (30 per cent \u2013 neither Netflix or Amazon Prime Video operate in China) and 230 million \u201cothers\u201d (30 per cent). Netflix will add 82 million subscribers between 2017 and 2023.\nThe company forecasts 120 million Amazon Prime Video\u2019s subscribers by 2023 \u2013 double the 2017 total. However, 110 million of the 2023 total will be in Amazon Prime territories, and therefore will not directly pay for the video platform.\nSVoD revenues will reach $69 billion by 2023 according to the analyses; up by nearly $44 billion since 2017. The US will remain the SVoD revenue leader by a considerable distance \u2013 adding $17 billion between 2017 and 2023 to take its total to $29 billion.\nTags \u22c5 amazon prime \u22c5 analysis \u22c5 digital tv research \u22c5 Netflix \u22c5 svod",

        "raw_content": "Marketers, Bose Sees Falling OEM Sales As Factor In Cuts\nFramingham, Mass. \u2014 Marketers attribute Bose\u2019s planned cut of about 10 percent of its workforce, or roughly 1,000 employees, to a sharp drop in vehicle sales, and not simply to a steep decline in consumer spending at retail stores.\nBose, whose sales have been estimated at $2 billion, is a major supplier of OEM sound systems to automakers, whose U.S. sales fell at double-digit rates in 2008. The company also supplied products to Tweeter, which liquidated at the end of last year, and Circuit City, which is in the process of liquidating. Bose was listed in court documents as an unsecured creditor owed $472,410 by Tweeter. The amount owed by Circuit City to Bose isn\u2019t clear, but court documents show Bose is not among Circuit City\u2019s top 50 unsecured creditors. Circuit\u2019s 50th top creditor is owed $1.53 million.\nIn a statement, the privately held company said it is \u201crestructuring its operations in response to the decline of the global economy and its impact on consumer spending.\u201d Employee cuts will occur in \u201cselect areas, including manufacturing,\u201d the statement said.\nAlthough cuts could include employees at Bose\u2019s company-operated mall and factory-outlet stores, the company might not close many or any of its more than 175 locations. More than a dozen stores contacted by TWICE in the East and West coasts have not been informed that their stores would be closing.\nOne former retail executive also pointed out that breaking a lease at a mall or factory-outlet center is costly.\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to buy your way out of a mall lease unless you\u2019re bankrupt,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s cheaper to keep an unprofitable store open than to buy out the lease.\u201d Factory-outlet landlords are \u201ca little more negotiable,\u201d he said, but \u201cit wouldn\u2019t surprise me if Bose didn\u2019t close any stores because the stores help them sell stuff.\u201d\nIn its statement, Bose said the company has been \u201cstaffed for a growing economy, not a global recession. As a global company, we are responding to these challenges. Our corporate headquarters is in Massachusetts, and the Massachusetts workforce is impacted; however, we will not be disclosing other details, including specifics on the facilities or regions affected.\"\nBose Celebrates 30 Years In OEM Autosound\nBose: No Store Closings Despite Layoffs\nMotorola Q1 Sales Fall, Cuts Losses\niBiquity Sees OEM HD Radio Gains In '11\nBose Makes Noise About Headphones",

Since its foundation, the UPC has created a series of specific units and developed a set of regulations and practices for this purpose, culminating in 2013 with the University\u2019s endorsement of the European Charter and Code for Researchers, as the aim of providing a stimulating and favourable working environment for researchers and research-related personnel that allows their professional growth and development.\nFollowing this commitment, we started designing a new Human Resources Strategy for Researchers according to the Charter and Code in order to improve in selection and working conditions towards the application for the \"HR Excellence in Research\" accreditation. As a culmination of this work carried out UPC has recently obtained (July 2017) an official acknowledgment for HR Excellence in Research and has been granted by the European Commission the certified Logo of the program: \"HR Excellence in research\u201d.\nAs a result of the internal analysis and the identification of shortfalls and potential opportunities, a Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) and its 2017-2019 Action Plan was drawn up and validated by all of the relevant stakeholders.\nThis was an ambitious initiative in so far as the UPC aimed to carry out a comprehensive assessment that would lead to the clear identification of gaps and, above all, potential opportunities on which to work.\nWe believe that this Action Plan should do the following:\nProvide a real analysis of the current situation of the UPC based on objective criteria, which can be used to design additional actions for improvement and create new ones.\nImprove and optimise current resources.\nImprove existing channels of communication and relations, and establish new ones.\nImprove mechanisms for welcoming researchers to the University.\nThe implementation of the Plan will be monitored by the Steering Committee and the UPC\u2019s Research Committee. The university community will be informed of the progress made in the implementation of the Plan.\nPlease find attached the following documents:\nFor further details, do not hesitate to contact us at: cttinfo.europeus@upc.edu\nEuraxess Rights : http://ec.europa.eu/euraxess/index.cfm/rights/index\nCharter and code : http://ec.europa.eu/euraxess/index.cfm/rights/whatIsAResearcher",

We look forward to working with people of all backgrounds to take this major step forward for our nation's health.\"\nNIH has funded more than 100 organizations -- including community groups, health centers, academic medical centers and private companies -- to find volunteers for the database.\nThe program was first proposed by President Barack Obama during his 2015 State of the Union address, calling it the Precision Medicine Initiative. The program has since been renamed All of Us, in 2016, and earlier this year, the program received a $60 million yearly budget boost to $290 million.\nRELATED Study in mice identifies way to prevent premature aging disease\nPrecision medicine is an emerging approach to disease research, treatment and prevention, and considers differences in people's lifestyles, environments and biological makeup, including genes, to understand and diagnose disease and disease risk.\nParticipants will provide data over many years, including through surveys, electronic health records, physical measurements, blood and urine samples and wearable technologies. And in future phases, children will be able to enroll.\nIn March, the NIH issued details on funding genomic centers that receive 100,000 genomes each year, beginning with a 20,000-person pilot later this year.\nRELATED African-American heart failure patients less likely to see doctor: Study\nThe Mayo Clinic was recently awarded $142 million over five years by the NIH to serve as the nation's biobank in Rochester, Minn., and Jacksonville, Fla. It plans to store 35 samples from each of the 1 million participants.\nMayo is already inviting patients to volunteer to donate samples, including blood and blood derivatives, and health information regardless of health history. The biobank currently has 27,000 participants, and close to 1 million samples have already been stored.\n\"Our facility is built to serve as the archive for all biospecimens, storing them under optimal conditions to preserve quality and minimize loss, damage or contamination, and will be able to retrieve them efficiently for distribution,\" Dr. Mine Cicek, co-principal investigator at Mayo's Center for Individualized Medicine, said in a press release.\nRELATED 23andMe granted limited approval for breast cancer risk test\nThe Scripps Translational Science Institute will seek participants through partnerships with Walgreens, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, National Blood Collaborative, Quest Diagnostics and other organizations.\n\"All of Us represents a far-reaching initiative for what's possible in medical research today and in the future -- how each individual can generate useful data about their own health and what makes them tick,\" Dr. Eric Topol, director of STSI and a professor of molecular medicine at The Scripps Research Institute, said in a press release.\nHenry Ford Health System, which has received a $60 million NIH funding over five years for its role in All of Us, is planning a public event from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on May 6 at Ford Field in Detroit to raise awareness and enroll people in the program.\n\"This is unlike anything we've done before in healthcare science, and it will keep the United States at the forefront of medical research,\" Dr. Christine Cole Johnson, who heads Henry Ford's Department of Public Health Sciences, said in a press release. \"The findings may enable doctors to specifically tailor recommended treatments to prevent or cure diseases or illnesses that will be known, ahead of time, to be effective for that specific individual patient.\"\nThe All of Us program is the brainchild of Eric Dishman, a former Intel executive and cancer survivor.\nAt 19, Dishman was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney cancer. He underwent more than 50 rounds of chemotherapy and radiation over two decades that he later found out were \"never destined to work.\" Ultimately, his cancer was cured when doctors sequenced his genome and then prescribed a pancreatic cancer drug. He then received a kidney transplant.\n\"I'm alive today because of precision medicine, and I think everyone deserves that same opportunity no matter the color of your skin, your economic status, your age or your sex or gender,\" Dishman said. \"In other words, it will truly take all of us.\"",

        "raw_content": "Ben Allwein\nSenior Parlee Center Fellow\nI am a Parlee Center Fellow because science without purpose is not truly science at all. I consider the disparity and lack of understanding between those few who carry out the science and those most affected by the outcome of scientists\u2019 discoveries and understanding to be one of the great injustices I\u2019ve faced within my lifetime. That we do not provide the necessary tools for everyone, regardless of socioeconomic status, race, or gender, to become a scientist (if they want to) or, moreover, accessibility to understand the body of scientific work which has the power to affect lives on a global scale is, to me, deeply unsettling.\nMy service work with underserved populations as part of the Ursinus Bonner Program informs and drives my advocacy work with the Parlee Center because I\u2019ve observed firsthand the consequences of scientific neglect. People, especially impoverished people, who feel as though they have no business learning about science will never be able to fully understand the deep roots that exist between our everyday lives and the science that goes on around us all the time. It is my ultimate hope that by teaching, volunteering, and effectively connecting with people that I might be able to show others why science is so important, relevant, and worth caring about.\nMajor in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology - Minor in Physics - Bonner Leader, UCARE Service Fellow, College Communications Photographer\nI do research in the Cameron Lab, where we study a version of invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases called \u201ctransmissible spongiform encephalopathies.\u201d In cows, this disease is called \u201cMad Cow Disease\u201d; in humans, it is \u201cCreutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.\u201d In the interest of not contracting deadly neurodegenerative diseases, we use baker\u2019s yeast as a model organism in which study the class of molecular proteinaceous anomalies which underlie the TSEs, a unique class of protein called \u201cprions.\u201d Prions are wildly complicated misfolded proteins which propagate by converting exponential numbers of copies of the same (genetically identical) protein to form large, destructive conglomerates that cause myriad problems within the cell. My work looks specifically at how these individual proteins aggregate and convert each other to the misfolded clumps that define mammalian and yeast prion phenomena.\nI successfully completed my Summer Fellows project on what I\u2019ve described above, with plans to present my summer work at the Haverford Undergraduate Science Research Symposium on September 24th.\nMy Favorite Parlee Center Events\nMy favorite Parlee Center event was a visit and talk from the science writer Amanda Gefter on her book, \u201cTresspassing on Einstein\u2019s Lawn.\u201d In her book she describes her deep-rooted interest in physics and her rise to international journalistic accolade among the physics community. I look up to her because though she has no formal academic background in the subject, Amanda Gefter has become extraordinarily well-versed in the deepest questions concerning the origin and ultimate fate of the universe and on contemporary cosmological physics research. Her book is written for a general audience and though her expertise in physics journalism is immediately obvious, she is an excellent communicator capable of making available to everyone a field which has been historically accessible to only a select few people.\nMy favorite events:\nTyrone Hayes: \u201cFrom Silent Spring to Silent Night: A Tale of Toads and Men\u201d\nKevin Hill: \u201cThe Unbiased Truth about Marijuana\u201d\nAmanda Gefter: \u201cTrespassing on Einstein\u2019s Lawn\u201d\nMy Parlee Center Fellow Courses\nMSC-256 (Decoding Science); EDUC-210 (Foundations of Education); PHIL-240 (Ethics)\nAfter my time at Ursinus, I plan on going to graduate school to earn a Ph.D. in the field of molecular biophysics. From there I hope to become a professor and educate college students on issues pertaining to civic engagement, scientific access, and, of course, the physical sciences.\nI\u2019m deeply interested in disparities of science education and equal opportunity. In the future I hope to become a professor and to help shape the next generation of medical professionals, scientists, and scientifically-minded individuals.\nPhoto of Ben Allwein",

        "raw_content": "Van Gogh \u2022 Artist Biographies \u2022 Eugene-Louis Boudin\nVenice/santa Maria Della Salute From...\nEug\u00e8ne Boudin was born in Honfleur. The son of a fisherman and a stewardess, he would have been destined for a life at sea and in fact began to work as cabin boy when he was ten. When he fell overboard one day, however, his mother decided that he had better work on land. Boudin worked first as a printer's clerk and then as a salesman in an art supply shop in Le Havre. The only formal art training Boudin received came from Millet, who bought his paints at the shop and gave the young man criticism on his drawing. Boudin continued in the art supply business until 1846, when he began to devote all his time to painting. By 1852, he an exhibition of his works was held in Le Havre, and in 1859 he began to show annually at the Paris official Salons, where he received a third-class medal in 1881.\nAlthough Boudin's art received very little appreciation from the general public, it was greatly admired by such artists as Corot, Courbet, Sisley, Puvis de Chavannes, Manet, Monet, and Jongkind, and by the poet Baudelaire who found his portrayals of nature and natural atmosphere astonishingly accurate. Boudin's work is light and tender in quality, fresh in color, and scintillating in its portrayal of light and the reflection of light upon landscapes or people. Although Boudin's favorite subjects were the charmingly dressed ladies and gentlemen of the bourgeoisie promenading upon Normandy beaches, he also painted still lives, landscapes, and even a few portraits. In his preoccupation with the effects of atmospheric light, his work is seen as strongly influenced Monet and the other Impressionists. But Boudin was a modest man and considered himself neither a revolutionary nor as important an artist as the younger men. With luminous skies moving gently across the canvas, his work offers a soft and peaceful impression of an untroubled nature.",

        "raw_content": "How is child support enforced?\nby VBMMP / October 16, 2015 / Child Support\nIn a perfect world, unmarried or divorced parents would always make timely payments on child support. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Sometimes, the paying parent will refuse to make payments for a variety of reasons. For those Texas residents who rely on child support payments, this can prove to be a trying turn of events. Thankfully, there are ways to enforce child support when a spouse refuses to pay.\nCourts are very stern when it comes to child support. They will strictly enforce it. Once a payer starts to fall behind on payments, that payer will be considered to be in arrears. At this point, the payer can request for a child support modification if the monthly payments prove to be too much to handle. However, the modification will only apply to future payments; they cannot be modified retroactively.\nIn the case of a spouse refusing to pay, divorced spouses can make use of the 1984 Child Support Enforcement Act. This imbues district attorneys with the power to help in collecting child support from an unpaying party. This usually takes the form of serving the ex-spouse with papers. In these papers, guidelines to meet with the district attorney are often enclosed. Failing to meet with the district attorney will often result in jail time. However, jail is not always the best answer, as it can mean that the ex-spouse will be unable to earn money and thus will not be able to meet their payments.\nFinding out what the best move is when an ex-spouse refuses to pay child support can be a difficult task. It is not one people have to decide on alone \u2014 attorneys are available to assist with every step of the process.\nSource: FindLaw, \u201cEnforcement of Child Support: FAQ\u2019s,\u201d Accessed Oct. 12, 2015\nPrevious Post: \u00ab Helpful tips for child support modification\nNext Post: What is a collaborative divorce? \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Rights Advocates See Little Chance of Change, for Now\nCambodia's Prime Minister Hun Sen (2nd R) shakes hands with Sam Rainsy (2nd L), president of the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), after a meeting at the Senate in central Phnom Penh July 22, 2014. Sen and Rainsy met at the Senate in an attempt to solve the country's year-long political crisis after a disputed election. Seven members of parliament and an assistant, all members of CNRP, were ordered detained pending trial and taken to prison on charges of leading an insurrection, which carries a penalty of 20 to 30 years in prison, and incitement to violence. REUTERS/Stringer\nAside from a major Human Rights Watch report outlining human rights abuses under Prime Minister Hun Sen in the past decade, other observers say Cambodia suffered in other ways\u2014and there is little hope it will change in the near term.\nWilliam Ford, program officer of Southeast Asia at Freedom House, said freedom of expression suffered as well.\n\u201cDuring the now 30-year reign of Hun Sen, he has time and again skillfully debilitated the political opposition, marginalized civil society and ignored the most basic demands of the Cambodian people, including for an accountable political system,\u201d Ford wrote in an email.\n\u201cFuture leaders of Cambodia who aim to promote democratic governance that protects human rights can learn a great deal about what not to do by studying the tenure of Asia\u2019s longest-serving prime minister,\u201d he said. \u201cHun Sen has maintained a patina of pluralism by portraying himself as a protector of Cambodia against the horrors of the past, but in actuality has retained power through brute force and patronage politics at the expense of Cambodians.\u201d\nCambodia is ranked \u201cnot free\u201d in terms of its press by Freedom House.\nHun Sen has faced a large amount of criticism from rights groups as he marks 30 years in power.\nThe Human Rights Watch report is particularly critical. In a speech Wednesday, Hun Sen, who has had a hand in leading the country in one way or other since 1985, admitted it had been difficult at times. But he said he did what he could when he came to power, at a time when war was breaking out, and had brought peace.\n\u201cDon\u2019t be confused,\u201d he said, referring to himself in the third person, as is his habit, \u201cwithout Hun Sen\u2019s hand, there would be no Paris Peace Accords. Be clear on this matter.\u201d\nRights groups say that peace has come at the cost of civil liberties and basic human rights and freedoms.\nRupert Abbott, Amnesty International\u2019s research director for Southeast Asia and the Pacific, told VOA Khmer by email that Cambodian authorities should indeed speed up the country\u2019s reform process.\n\u201cCambodia has signed up to many of the human rights treaties and conventions in international law, which means that it has an obligation to ensure that these rights are protected, from civil and political to economic, social and cultural rights,\u201d he said. \u201cCambodia must put protection of human rights at the heart of its policies. Genuine political will and systematic reforms are required to bring about lasting improvements in the human rights situation. Many of the human rights problems in Cambodia are deeply entrenched, such as using the courts to silence activists, the lack of an independent judiciary, and impunity for human rights violations which sends a message that perpetrators will not be punished.\u201d\nCambodia\u2019s economic growth has been impressive, and the government deserves some credit for that, he said. But a land crisis, forced evictions and land grabs are creating \u201congoing problems\u201d the government has not addressed.\nJames Tyner, a professor of politics and geography at Kent State University, Ohio, said Cambodia, at this juncture, should be analyzed via a \u201ctotality of problems.\u201d\n\u201cFrom issues of water security to food security, it is necessary to view the political, economic and social conditions of Cambodia\u2019s people within a broader narrative of transnational governance,\u201d he said. \u201cIn other words, the prime minister does not stand alone but is part of a more complex interplay of international actors that may or may not have Cambodia\u2019s best interests at heart.\u201d\nHowever, much skepticism exists that Hun Sen, who remains securely in power, is likely to change.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think he needs to,\u201d Peter Maguire, a legal scholar and author, said. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t rely much on the West, like he once did. He now has Chinese patronage to very much let him do whatever he wants, in terms of human rights. As long as they get their returns on their investments, they don\u2019t care.\u201d\nHun Sen has managed the West for years, he said, and China is a donor that does not get involved with Cambodia\u2019s internal politics.\nMeanwhile, Hun Sen\u2019s son, Hun Manet, is being groomed as a potential successor. \u201cTrue political change\u201d will be needed if there is to be a democratic change of leadership, Maguire said, adding that demonstrations in 2013 showed that discontent still exists.\n\u201cI thought for a brief moment that change was in the air,\u201d he said. \u201cI mean, there are many Cambodians that are not content with the rule of Hun Sen.\u201d As for electoral change, the question is whether that discontent will transfer to the polls, and whether Hun Sen would respect the results. \u201cHe certainly didn\u2019t respect the results of the Untac election,\u201d Maguire said.\nNy Chakrya, lead investigator for the rights group Adhoc, said he agrees with international rights groups that don\u2019t expect much change under the current leadership.\nBut he urged future leaders to take examples from other countries that have sustained development, as well as rights and freedoms. \u201cThey should see how they rule their countries,\u201d he said. In Cambodia\u2019s environment, he said, it\u2019s hard for leaders to change from authoritarianism, corruption and nepotism to human rights, democracy and justice.\nFew Dare To Speak Against Hun Sen\nCambodia Needs \u2018Change from Below,\u2019 Prominent Advocate Says\n30 Years of \u2018Violence, Repression, Corruption,\u2019 Human Rights Watch Reports\nRights Group Calls for Political Reform in Cambodia\nHun Sen Blasts Opposition Ahead of Jan. 7 Holiday",

Once the wires are cut and stripped on the machine they get crimped into the house but a quick conductivity test is important on IDC crimps and I\u2019ll let you know why as I move through this harness.\nUnderwriter\u2019s Laboratories (UL) tests and approves 1007 to 300 volts and 105\u00b0C, then approves that the manufacture can in fact produce hundreds of thousands or millions of feet at a time. Customers and end users see the UL1007 style printed on the insulation and know that it\u2019s been tested and approved by not only the manufacturer but also the third-party approval source.\nThe American Wire Gauge (AWG) is the thickness of the copper or the overall thickness of multiple strands of copper. For instance, the outer diameter of UL1007 18 AWG wire is approximately 0.081\u201d and the insulation thickness (set based on voltage and temperature ratings) is 0.016\u201d on both sides. The copper underneath the insulation is 0.049\u201d (or .081 - .016 - .016), whether it\u2019s solid or stranded. It\u2019s been determined that a solid strand of copper at 0.049\u201d thick will conduct the same amount of electricity as 16 strands of copper wound together with an overall diameter of 0.049\u201d.\nThis wire uses tinned copper strands rather than bare copper as well, so the strands, when exposed, could appear to be silver when they aren\u2019t. To help with the soldering process later, copper strands are commonly coated with a layer of tin so that it slightly melts when heat is applied.\nThe cutting and stripping process is completed at the same time on the wire processing machine. In this case, the insulation is only stripped on one end at 0.25\u201d in preparation for the end user. The other end will get IDC crimped directly through the insulation, explained in the paragraph below. Some things to look for in the cutting process are measurements, scrapes on the PVC insulation and scrapes on the copper strands. Roughly 5% of the pieces should be measured during the cutting process after the machine operator is sure that the machine is set to the correct settings.\nThe blades that cut and strip the wire need to be set to crunch down to 0.049\u201d as stated above when I mentioned the diameter of the copper inside the insulation. However, it\u2019s very important that the machine doesn\u2019t push the blades too far down causing strands to cut or get scraped. It\u2019s easy to see a scraped tinned copper strand because the tin will be removed and a copper (brass look) will appear in plain view. Cut, broken or scraped copper strands can change the current, conductivity and overall settings for the end user\u2019s application, so it\u2019s important to put these items on a checklist for the machine operator to be aware of as they cut the wires.\nInsulation Displacement Crimping (IDC) is the process of pushing the wire into a V-shaped metal blade until the insulation is broken and the copper conductor meets the metal. Later, when this wire harness is plugged into an electronic device, it will be looking to run current through the metal and through the copper conductor to meet another connection on the other side. It\u2019s the responsibility of the wire harness manufacturer to be sure there\u2019s a current running through this harness, so an electronic conductivity test will suffice in terms of quality control. The video shows how the wire is pushed in to a level of 0.049\u201d which is just enough to break through the insulation and meet the copper conductor. But again, the conductivity test will assure quality and allow the assemblers to be positive that the assembly is manufactured to the customer\u2019s specifications.\nWhen purchasing wire harnesses or cut and stripped wire from a contract manufacturer you can be assured that they have a quality process in place by asking if they\u2019re ISO 9001 certified. It\u2019s an international standard for quality that organizations follow to make and ship a quality product every time. For example, a quality management system would typically request a first article approval from the customer which takes a significant risk off the table immediately. Upon approval, the manufacturing process begins with a manager signing off on the first piece, as a sample for the assemblers to view as they work. From there, in-process quality checks are completed and signed on a quality inspection report that check measurements, damaged wire or parts, part numbers and electrical conductivity. Finally, the manager spot-checks the lot and signs a final quality check at the end of the process.\nThe ISO 9001 certificate is gained through a difficult training process in the initial stage, and audited annually to be sure that the company still complies with the standard. Also, continuous improvement initiatives are mandatory, forcing companies to prove that they are documenting errors and using their data to improve processes going forward. Stagnancy is not acceptable in the world of international standards compliance. You can rest assured as a customer when in the hands of a veteran ISO certified company, not only that they meet the standard obligations, but also that they improve on a yearly basis to further support their biggest stakeholder of long term sustainability, their customers.",

        "raw_content": "Uber is already a very well established ride sharing platform that solves the problem of convenience. It\u2019s especially useful when you have had one too many drinks and you don\u2019t want to drive drunk\u2026.Which you shouldn\u2019t!\nNow, Uber is going a step further to explore the possibility of being able to detect a drunk passenger before he/she boards. This is according to a Patent application filed by Uber\u2019s Trust & Safety team, which works to make the company\u2019s products safer. (Download the full application document below)\nThe company is planning to use machine learning to try and detect unusual behavior and compare it to your usual behavior. They\u2019ll be looking at information like location, data input accuracy, data input speed, interface interaction behavior, the angle at which the user is holding their device, or even the speed at which they\u2019re walking.\nFor instance, If you\u2019re in a location that\u2019s known as a popular \u2018night life\u2019 spot at 1 a.m, you have several typos on the Uber app, and you\u2019re walking way too slow, there\u2019s a high chance that you\u2019re drunk.\nWith this information, the company will be able to match a drunk Uber passenger with an experienced, highly disciplined driver who is capable of handling drunk passengers. Drunk passengers might also be required to pay higher fees.\nThe system will also notify the driver of the passenger\u2019s state so that they decide whether they\u2019re ready for the adventure. Some drivers don\u2019t want a drunk Uber passenger.\nThis move is an obvious response more than 100 cases reported of Uber drivers taking advantage and assaulting drunk passengers. There are also cases of passengers assaulting drivers when they\u2019re are drunk.\nUber has said before that they want to be part of the solution. In an industry that matches strangers to provide services, software and artificial intelligence could go a long way in making the system safer.\nThe Patent application filed at United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has not been approved yet. It\u2019s going to be an interesting debate between safety and user data privacy; a very 2019 statement.\nDownload the full Patent application here:\nAlso Read: Find Out What Your Uber Drivers Think of You.\n\u2190 Did You Forget T...Out Of Facebook?How To Delete Your Spotify Account \u2192\nKudos to uber!!",

        "raw_content": "Boise\u2019s Future Home Values: Up, Down, or Sideways?\nLast week Boise homeowners\u2019 peace of mind would have been strengthened by some words that received wide circulation throughout the financial press. Their author was a gentleman whose opinions are as close to bankable as anyone currently on the scene. If there were such a thing as a Nobel Prize in real estate, this guy would own one\u2014come to think of it, he DOES have a Nobel prize (for economics), but his work largely centers on the U.S. real estate market.\nWe\u2019re talking about Robert Shiller, the Yale professor who co-invented the Case-Shiller Index. It\u2019s the most economically respected measure of U.S home prices. Boise homeowners who measure their own financial wherewithal usually consider the market price of their Boise home as a major contributor to their net worth\u2014the personal financial ultimate bottom line. As Wall Street\u2019s MarketWatch put it, \u201cwhat\u2019s more natural than wanting to know the value of our biggest assets?\u201d\nThat\u2019s why the trajectory of home values in the months and years ahead are of more than passing interest\u2014and why the views of Professor Shiller make headlines. Among other prescient pronouncements, he foresaw the past decade\u2019s housing crash and subsequent financial meltdown\u2014and penned an article predicting it a full year in advance.\nThe latest S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Home Price Index did report some slowing\u2014but that was a slowing in the rate of price increases, rather than a true slowdown. Still, after years of constantly upbeat statistical news, it\u2019s not surprising that Shiller\u2019s views on what\u2019s next got wide coverage when CNBC interviewed him last week.\nWhat the straight-talking economist had to say was welcome news for Boise homeowners. When the interviewer brought up possible fears of a major downturn in home equity like the previous decade\u2019s housing bubble, Shiller replied, \u201cit\u2019s not the same.\u201d On the contrary, addressing home values in the immediate future, he was definite: \u201cI don\u2019t expect a sharp turn in the housing market.\u201d\nMuch of the U.S. slowdown in home sales has to do with a lack of inventory: homeowners willing to sell. If you are one of Boise\u2019s homeowners, you can take that as a green light for listing your own property in today\u2019s market.

At the same time, the working platform should be easy to clean.\nTo make working in the kitchen an easy task, the different modular kitchen materials are coming up. These help in proper arrangement of essentials and easy maintenance of kitchen.\nMaterials Used For Modular Kitchen:\nThe modular kitchen has different parts or the different sections which include the cabinet, working platform, countertop, etc. Each of these parts can use different materials based on its utility. Every material used in the modular kitchen has its own pros and cons. You can select the latest materials for the kitchen cabinet. The different materials used for the modular kitchen include:\n#1. Natural Wood: This natural wood is also called the \u2018solid wood\u2019 and is one of the best materials for the modular kitchen.

Laminates are resistant to moisture permeability and cheap. These qualities make the best material for kitchen cabinets and also as a good kitchen platform material.\nCons: It needs proper installation. Bad installation may lead to peeling off of the edges. As this material uses resins and plastic, it may emit some toxic gases.\nAlso check \u2013 Kitchen Cabinets Design\n#3. Wood Veneers:The wood veneer consists of thin sheets of solid or natural wood. As it contains wood, it offers natural wood-like appearance. It is possible to stain and polish these veneers to obtain the desired texture and color. It is the best kitchen countertop material.\nPros: Veneers have the quality of solid wood. They are sustainable and economic. Thus, this material is the best material for the modular kitchen. It is also used as kitchen slab material. Wood veneers can provide a high-gloss, semi-gloss and matte effect to the surface.\nCons: On exposure to natural light, this material tends to fade. Wood veneers are also not resistant to scratches.\nAlso check \u2013 Wooden Kithen Cabinets\n#4. PVC: This material uses sheets of plastic and is available in wide range of colors.

They are sturdy and remain unaffected by humidity and heat. They are easy to clean and durable and hence, these metals are widely chosen as the kitchen cabinet door material.\nCons: They have limited range of colors and they tend to get dents and start making noise with time.\n#6.

        "title": "Pat Miller Honored with APDT\u2019s Lifetime Achievement Award | Whole Dog Journal",
        "raw_content": "Whole Dog Journal\u2019s Training Editor, Pat Miller, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, was honored with this prestigious award this week at the annual APDT conference.\nI\u2019m writing this post from Memphis, Tennessee, where I am attending the 25th annual educational conference and trade show of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) \u2013 and where, tonight, the APDT is honoring Pat Miller with a Lifetime Achievement Award. The award honors APDT members who have made outstanding contributions to the association and to the dog training industry throughout their careers. Pat has been a member of the APDT since its infancy and was elected to its board in 2001 and as board president from 2002 through 2003. She\u2019s also been a frequent presenter at its annual conferences.\nPat swung through California in 2015 and met the dogs who were then living with WDJ Editor Nancy Kerns.\nI felt strongly compelled to make the journey to Memphis to see Pat honored in this way, because she\u2019s been extremely important to WDJ from day one and remains so today. You can read more about her professional accomplishments in this press release from the APDT, but if you don\u2019t mind, I\u2019d like to tell you about why * I * appreciate Pat Miller.\nI first \u201cmet\u201d Pat in 1998 when I was helping the editor of an independent start-up publication called The Whole Horse Journal. Pat had written an article about using positive reinforcement \u2013 \u201cclicker training\u201d \u2013 to train horses. At the time, I was only helping the editor, Diana Thompson, with copyediting and production of the magazine, but I was impressed by Pat\u2019s friendly, accessible, clear writing style and kind, humane advice about teaching new behaviors to horses. Her knowledge wasn\u2019t just cutting-edge, it was light years ahead of most professionals in horse training, a field that has long been characterized by force-based training methods, passed down by tradition and, in 1998, rarely informed by scientific knowledge of learning theory or even basic animal behavior.\nThat same year, leapfrogging on the budding success of the Whole Horse Journal (no longer in publication), its publisher decided to launch a trial of something called the Whole Dog Journal. Since I had been working on Whole Horse Journal in an informal role since its beginning, the publisher asked me to edit the new magazine. I was flattered, but as I told him, \u201cI\u2019m really more of a horse person! I mean, I * have * a dog, but I don\u2019t know that much about them!\u201d My new boss helpfully pointed out that as a professional journalist, I ought to be able to figure it out.\nNancy Kerns took this picture of Pat and two of her dogs (Dusty and Josie) at the 2001 APDT conference in Ellenburg, NY, in 2001.\nMost of the \u201cfiguring it out\u201d in the first few years of Whole Dog Journal meant leaning hard on truly qualified and knowledgeable experts in their fields and learning as much as possible from them. I needed someone to help educate the readers of WDJ (and me!) about scientifically sound, kind, and effective dog training methods. When I learned that the author of that clicker-training article in the Whole Horse Journal was actually a dog trainer (with a horse addiction), I was thrilled. I zeroed in on Pat as someone who could help me help WDJ\u2019s readers learn to train their dogs in mutually fun and beneficial ways. At my request, Pat wrote an article for the very first issue of WDJ \u2013 and she has had an article in every issue save ONE since then. (That omission was my fault; I had her article, but bumped it from the issue for reasons I can\u2019t remember now, but I don\u2019t think Pat will ever let me forget it! I screwed up her perfect record!)\nPat was an extremely early adopter of dog-friendly and scientifically sound training methods. At the time that Whole Dog Journal was launched in 1998, I would characterize the dog-owning public (including myself) as innocently ignorant of the differences between military-style, force-based obedience and fun, family-friendly training.\nIt seems crazy now, given the happy prevalence of \u201cpositive training\u201d today, but 20 years ago, the vast majority of professional dog trainers were openly hostile to \u201ccookie tossers\u201d and \u201cweenie slingers.\u201d But Pat was never defensive about promoting methods based on positive reinforcement; from our first collaboration, she showed me how the proof was in the pudding: happy dogs learning quickly and easily from astonished and grateful owners are the best advocates for this stuff.\nIn the beginning (as now), I relied on Pat to provide WDJ with informative, clear, sensible articles about basic dog-friendly dog training, which I knew nothing about in those early days. She pointed me toward educational opportunities such as the first APDT conference I ever attended in Ellenburg, New York, in 2001, so I could immerse myself in the topic of modern dog training and try to catch up a little.\nPat introduced me to leaders in the field such as Jean Donaldson, Patricia McConnell, Dr. Karen Overall, among others. Early on, I asked her to take the title of Training Editor, in recognition of her importance to Whole Dog Journal\u2019s development.\nPat also educated me about things as simple but profoundly important as the need for consistent use of modern language about animals. From the beginning, she gently but persistently convinced me about the need to use \u201chim\u201d and \u201cher\u201d when referring to animals \u2013 never \u201cit.\u201d It seems so basic, and yet \u2013 well, go read any other newspaper or magazine article about a specific animal. Also, thanks to Pat, we have always used the word \u201cwho\u201d rather than \u201cthat\u201d in sentences that refer to dogs, just as we would for humans. It\u2019s not \u201cDogs that bark incessantly\u2026\u201d but rather \u201cDogs who bark incessantly\u2026\u201d. When we acknowledge the personhood of dogs (or any other sentient animals) in these basic ways, Pat taught me, the reader more readily recognizes the need to deal with them with the respect and kindness accorded to any human animal.\nPat has not only guided my education about canine behavior and training, she has also encouraged other trainer/authors and introduced them to me and to WDJ. Many of our training contributors are people who have either worked with or been one of Pat\u2019s students (at one or more of her Canine Behavior and Training Academies) or who are colleagues that Pat admires and respects. You see, like the best educators, Pat is also a perennial student, always reading, researching, and learning about advances in the field of learning theory. Over the years, I have witnessed the fact that some trainers learn one technique and practice that technique and only that technique for the rest of their lives and careers. In contrast, Pat is always eager to learn something new, try it out on her own dogs, and if it proves to be fun, kind, and effective, she generously promotes the new technology as yet one more option for helping dogs and humans learn together.\nTonight, the APDT will be recognizing Pat for her professional achievements \u2013 her many books on positive training, her Academies for dog trainers, etc., etc., \u2013 but monthly, with every issue, I hope Whole Dog Journal readers recognize Pat\u2019s contributions as well.\nWell deserved, Pat. There are no words to express the value of your contributions. Your advice and counsel are immeasurable! Steve Robinson\nPosted by: Steve R | October 19, 2018 10:50 AM Report this comment\nHuge congrats to Pat! Very well-deserved! I do have one comment. While I absolutely agree that dogs are sentient beings and should be referred to as him/her, etc., I do NOT agree with the term \"pet parent.\" For one thing, it tends to give dog owners the idea that their pets are four-legged children, which means they are often treated as such. It's disrespectful to dogs to ignore all the wonderful qualities that they have, and expect them to be something they are not. But, more importantly, it leads down the path to \"guardianship,\" something the animal rights extremists are pushing for. Once we are guardians of our pets, just like with children, we do not OWN them, and since the animal rights crowd believes that animals have rights equal to humans, they therefore cannot be kept in \"captivity,\" i.e., as pets. It's a slippery, dangerous slope. I love my dogs but I'm not their parent, and they were bought, not adopted. They are my property. Thanks for reading...off my soapbox. And again, attagirl, Pat! We're all proud of you.\nPosted by: GiftofGalway | October 18, 2018 4:44 PM Report this comment\nHas she ever commented on her opinion that the dogs from Michael Vick's property should all be euthanized?\nPosted by: SadieSue | October 18, 2018 4:33 PM Report this comment\nI had the pleasure of consulting Pat when my dog was having some problems. She is a wonderful behaviorist and person. She is so deserving of this recognition.\nPosted by: Joanita | October 18, 2018 4:17 PM Report this comment\nI was fortunate enough to work with Pat with my Great Dane, Scout who was experiencing extreme noise phobia. In her consultation report, she wrote the below that both reassured me and gave me confidence during a very difficult time. You rock Pat!\nIt was a pleasure working with you, Scout and Hunter today. What sweet dogs they are! I love the commitment to and connection you have with your dogs. You have researched and educated yourself well, and are clearly doing everything you can to give them a great quality of life, even with the challenges they have presented to you. Every dog should have a human like you. You rock!\nPosted by: joydewitt | October 18, 2018 3:57 PM Report this comment\nCan't think of anyone more deserving\nPosted by: sandyeggan | October 18, 2018 3:33 PM Report this comment\nI have been a longtime subscriber to WDJ and have always found Pat Miller's articles to be so helpful and informative. I remember trying to find a trainer who used positive only methods back in 1995, and it was quite a challenge to find someone! I had read articles on positive training from Tuft's University penned by Dr. Dodman, then read Patricia McConnell's books and starting subscribing to WDJ\u2014finally, a community of educated, well-informed professionals who shared my respect for dogs as beings who deserved kindness and encouragement in lieu of harsh training methods. I am so happy Pat Miller has been recognized for her outstanding work and contributions. When you think of the thousands of pet owners and their companion animals she has helped, it's truly astounding. Thank you WDJ for always being my go-to-source for sound, positive, informative care for my dogs, and for bringing people like Pat Miller into my life through your wonderful publication.\nPosted by: LydNJ | October 18, 2018 2:51 PM Report this comment\nI AM lucky enough to live (practically) next door to her! She has been an invaluable resource for the dogs we rescue and the adopters who take them into their homes. I learn so much every time I have the opportunity to be around her.\nPosted by: bgarbarino | October 18, 2018 2:50 PM Report this comment\nI have been subscribing to WDJ for many, many years--maybe from the beginning--so Pat Miller's articles have always been eagerly read. I wish she lived next door to me so I could take real advantage of her knowledge, expertise, patience, common sense for the sake of all my dogs. Thank you for your generosity and sharing.\nPosted by: DianefromLA | October 18, 2018 2:34 PM Report this comment",

This new volcanic activity is alarming but not surprising.\nFor those planning or looking forward to a trip to the Big Island, I want to make sure you have facts from both experts and someone who lives here on the island. I've seen a disappointing amount of inaccurate reporting, over-exaggerated details and downright irresponsible journalism. Despite the scary videos, images and news reports you may have seen, the Island of Hawaii is open for business.\nThe Big Island is over 4,000 square miles. The area of the latest eruption covers 10 square miles. Travelers should have no worries visiting, according to Jim Bendt, CEO of Pique Travel Design.\nImage source: Hawaii Magazine\nKilauea volcano has been erupting for over 35 years but in early May, following a series of small tremors, new fissures in the ground began opening in a remote area of the island called Puna and more specifically the neighborhood of Leilani Estates.\nPuna is located on the slopes of Kilauea volcano. As of this writing, there have been a total of 18 fissures that have opened with new lava flows. All fissures have opened along what is called the East Rift Zone.\nThe East Rift Zone on Hawaii Island. Image source: Star Advertiser\nThis new 2018 flow is very similar to a flow that occurred in 1955, which \"consisted of 24 separate vents along the East Rift Zone and lasted three months. Nearly 4,000 acres were covered in lava, including main roadways, sugar cane fields and residential neighborhoods.\" (source) While it is impossible to predict what will happen next, most scientists agree that this new flow could continue on for a few more weeks or months as it did in 1955.\nSomething very important note here is that nothing is \"erupting\" the way you may have seen in movies or even from your childhood volcano science project.\nHawaii lava is known for it's slow-moving, river like flows. Those who live in the affected areas have had enough time to evacuate safely which is why there have been no injuries to persons, only structures which obviously cannot be moved out of the way.\nIf it's so dangerous, why do people live there?\nIt's easy to judge those who chose to live so close to an active volcano. When you live in this part of the island this is a risk you take, right? Absolutely. That is true for those who live anywhere where natural disasters occur often. California earthquakes don't deter people from living there nor do Florida hurricanes. Hawaii is much the same, with an important additional cultural consideration.\nLiving in Hawaii is expensive and for many, land in the area near the new eruptions is the most affordable you can find and it is easy to see why in light of current events. When you want a place to call your own and raise a family, aren't there a few risks you too would take? Native Hawaiians belong here on these islands and want to live here. And why shouldn't they? The mana (power) emanating around Kilauea is felt very strongly as it is the home to Tutu Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano. But she is more than that to Hawaiians. Pele is the lava. She is the island and she can clean house whenever she pleases.\nI won't go too far into these beliefs, except to say that as someone who was born and raised in Hawaii but is not native Hawaiian, I both respect and honor Pele same as I respect and love these islands. Whether you or I believe in such deities simply does not matter. It is important to Hawaiians and who are we to judge anyone's beliefs or the reasons they choose to live in a place that though it is dangerous, is still home? Let us be kind and not judge.\nIs it safe to travel to the island?\nGovernment officials, the Hawaii Tourism Authority and USGS scientist have all insisted that it is still absolutely safe to travel to Hawaii Island.\nRoss Birch, executive director of the Island of Hawaii Visitors\u2019 Bureau, says there\u2019s no reason to cancel the vast majority of upcoming trips, since most hazards are confined to the area directly around Kilauea. \u201cThe immediate area of where the lava outbreaks are is definitely a restricted area,\u201d he says \u2014 but aside from that, travel should go off without a hitch. Birch points out even those who have evacuated are sheltering only two to five miles away from the volcano, and that air quality on the rest of the Big Island, as well as neighboring islands, remains good or moderate. (source)\nHawaii island is divided into different lava zones, numbered 1-9. The current eruption is occurring in Zone 1. Zone 1 represents areas that are most hazardous and Zone 9 the least hazardous (source). If you look at the lava zone map below, you will see that West Hawaii, Zone 8, is safe from this new lava flow as the lava is flowing away from this area of the island. The area with the new eruptions is about 100 miles from both Kailua-Kona town and the Waikoloa/Kohala Coast area.\nThis map is presented courtesy of Atlas of Hawai'i, 3rd edition, Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press. Image Source: Clark Realty.\nHow will this affect my trip?\nUnless you were planning to stay in Puna or any town south of Puna, your trip should be mostly unaffected. Hilo is open for business. Pahoa is open for business. Kona town and Waikoloa are certainly open for business.\nAccording to an air pollution specialist, what you should do is check to see what the air quality looks like where they are planning to go (source).\nIs Volcano National Park open?\nRight now it is closed for the safety of the employees and visitors due to the unpredictable nature of all this new activity. No one lives in the immediate area of the summit crater so the closure was done out of an abundance of caution to the public and Park employees. Park hours are being updated daily so in a week or two it may reopen to the public again.\nIf your trip is affected in any way it will be that you may not be able to visit the Volcano National Park. Out of respect to those affected and to allow emergency management officials to do their job, the state is asking that you do not attempt to visit the area of the new lava flows.\nHow is the air quality?\nIn Waikoloa, the blowing trade winds mean clear blue skies by day and the most beautiful view of the starry sky at night. On days where trade winds aren't blowing as strong, there is definitely some vog (volcanic fog) in the air.\nDepending on how thick the vog is, it can look like a soft haze over the sky. On the worst day in Waikoloa (the day after the first fissure opened) there was a heavy amount of vog in the air. To me, heavy vog days feel a lot like allergies - runny nose and a scratchy throat. Again, please consult your doctor if you have any respiratory issues and are concerned.\nIf you are concerned about air quality, I would recommend moving your accommodations to Waikoloa, the Kohala Coast or Waimea where the affects have thus far been very low.\nThe Environmental Protection Agency's Air Now website provides national data as well as data from air quality monitors at select US embassies and consulates around the world.\nShould I cancel my trip?\nThis is 100% your choice to do so though the Hawaii Tourism Authority insisted there are \"no reasons at this time for travelers to change or alter their leisure or business plans.\" Both airports are open and operating normally.\nThere have already been an increase of reported cancellations and this news has been devastating to most on the island. Tourism is the largest single source of income for Hawaii\u2019s economy (source). It keeps the islands running and many small businesses won't be able to continue on if our normally busy summer season simply does not happen. The island needs your business now more than ever.\nIf you are interested in reading more, here are a few articles that go into detail about the current flow. Additionally, there is linked source information throughout my post above.\nIs it safe to travel to Hawaii?\nThese Are the Biggest Dangers From Hawaii's Erupting Volcano\nA Beginner\u2019s Guide to Hawaii\u2019s Otherworldly Lava\nHawaii Volcanologist: 'It's absolutely safe to come to Hawaii Island'\nKona Is NOT Being Covered By Lava \u2013 Despite National News Reports\nHawaii's Kilauea Volcano Is Still Erupting. Here's What to Know if You're Traveling to Hawaii\nA final note of Aloha\nI'd be remiss not to mention those who have been evacuated and who have lost their homes. This is heartbreaking no matter how you look at it. To lose your home is a devastating, life altering event and my heart is with those in Puna dealing directly with this tragedy. I simply cannot imagine their pain. And while I've worked hard in this post to make it clear that 95% of the island is safe and okay, I don't want to minimize the suffering of those who are hurting.\nIf you are interested and able to help in any way, may I recommend the following:\nBBB-verified campaigns to support those affected by Hawai\u2018i Island\u2019s K\u012blauea eruption.\nDonations may also be made directly to the American Red Cross Hawaii Chapter by clicking here or calling (808) 739-8109.\nThe Food Basket is accepting donations of water, food, supplies and money for the people in Puna affected by the recent volcanic activity.\nMahalo and see you soon!\nIsland LifeAislinn Chalker May 14, 2018 Update, VolcanoComment\nSunrise Hawaii Maternity Photographer - Puako Secret Beaches Babymoon\nPhotographyAislinn Chalker May 15, 2018 Hapuna Beach State Parkmaternity, babymoon, sunrise\nWaikoloa Family Photographer - Gorgeous Hawaii Sunset\nPhotographyAislinn Chalker May 13, 2018 Hapuna Beachbeach, Sunset, Hawaii",

        "title": "How SpaceX Launched 64 Satellites Into Orbit on a Falcon 9 | WIRED",
        "raw_content": "The SpaceX 'Clown Car' Launch Actually Worked\u2014Here's How\nA few years ago, a company called Spaceflight had a wacky plan. The plan, in the words of CEO Curt Blake, was \u201cLet\u2019s buy a Falcon!\u201d\nNot, like, the bird of prey. Like the big SpaceX rocket that, similar to its avian namesake, swoops back down to Earth once it\u2019s done its job. Buying the full capacity of such a big launcher is like booking out the town's largest, schmanciest bar: You really hope people will come to your party, and also that they'll pay their own tabs.\nIt was a little naive, Blake admits. But Spaceflight had a job to do, and a Falcon 9 seemed the way to do it. Spaceflight is a launch broker that, not unlike a travel agency, takes care of gritty takeoff details for satellite makers. The company wanted\u2014needed\u2014to launch a lot of small satellites. At the time, around 2015, there weren\u2019t many other options. Russia had invaded Crimea, making missions from there more difficult. India, which now holds the record for most satellites launched in one go, hadn't yet launched \u201csecondary payloads,\u201d or a big ol' rocket rideshare, en masse. And smaller rockets, like Rocket Lab\u2019s Electron, were just glimmers in their parents\u2019 eyes.\nEven before signing the contract with SpaceX, Spaceflight had lined up a bunch of customers, the final list of which included universities, artists, commercial Earth observers, and the military. Soon enough, SpaceX agreed to let the company stuff one of its rockets full of smallsats. Normally, a Falcon might tuck a few smallsats in as secondary payloads alongside a more impressive passenger, but they were never themselves the stars of the show. On the SmallSat Express, though, they were.\nIt was on Spaceflight to protect all those payloads on the trip up and deploy them safely in orbit. And after three years of post-contract planning, they did it: After some delays, a Falcon 9, which had already been to space twice, launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base the morning of December 3.\nBut it wasn\u2019t always pretty. Spaceflight had dreamed up a complicated mechanism, which looks like a giant steampunk spyglass, to protect and then deploy its satellites. When SpaceX engineers first saw it, they gave it a catchier name: Frankenstack.\nFrankenstack might spawn children. According to consulting firm Bryce Space and Technology, 336 smallsats launched in 2017, six times as many as launched in 2012. Another consulting firm, Frost and Sullivan, forecasts that more than 11,000 small satellites might seek a launch between 2018 and 2030. Compared to the inflated costs and timelines of most space projects, these satellites can be built quickly and cheaply, and they're easy to improve as their hardware and software mature. They're also quite resilient by satellite standards\u2014in that you can distribute capabilities across a constellation of them, rather than putting all your eggs in one exquisite basket. That's part of why the military is interested in them. As satellites get cheaper in all ways, space (and space data) become more accessible, not just to the government but also to high-school students.\nThat future's small satellites will have a few options: catching small, bespoke, and consequently more expensive rides; sharing a big ride with bigger satellites; or clown-carring on big fire-tubes. The clown-car approach\u2014of which the SmallSat Express is an example\u2014comes with complications. You have to coordinate schedules, deploy everybody without a smashup, then identify and track all those floating boxes. But sending up so many sats on one launch is like killing 64 birds with one stone.\nBefore the SmallSat Express could even leave the station, Spaceflight had to prove it could handle all of that. Starting with filling the seats, which wasn\u2019t easy at first. \u201cSpaceX\u2014early on, they had a couple problems,\u201d Blake says. (Read: two explosions.) \u201cAnd that did put a bit of a damper on sales, I have to say.\u201d But SpaceX\u2019s launch cadence galloped back to normal, sans blowup, and ultimately 64 satellites from 34 operators rode the SmallSat Express.\nTo accommodate all the passengers, Spaceflight had to build \u201cupper and lower free flyers\u201d to hold most of the satellites and then send them shooting out into space. On Tuesday, when the cargo got to orbit, the free flyers flew off and, soon, satellites slid out of the upper one like Tie Fighters. Others staggered out of the lower free flyer, while a few flew from a payload carrier in the rocket\u2019s second stage. Deploying all of them\u2014one every five minutes or so\u2014took hours, with customers tweeting \"Mine's out!\" updates into the evening.\nThe team at Spaceflight ran thousands of simulations, tweaking and tweaking, to make sure the satellite shoot-outs wouldn\u2019t lead to collisions. They showed their work to both the FCC and the Air Force. That work appears to have been good: No one shouted that their satellite had crashed into another. Once all the payloads were out, the mayfly-mortality free flyers sprouted sails from their backs, adding drag, and drifted down into the atmosphere.\nBut the complexities didn\u2019t end with deployment. All the payload operators had to find, identify, and make contact with their satellites. It\u2019s not so simple ever, really, and definitely not when 60-plus satellites besides your own just blasted forth from the same spot. Imagine trying to follow and find out the names of all the people who get off a bus at the last stop. Before the launch, T.S. Kelso, who runs orbital-analysis site CelesTrak, expressed anxiety. \u201cIt remains unclear how prepared we are to track & ID passengers from the SSO-A launch in a timely fashion,\u201d he tweeted. \u201cI am still very concerned.\u201d He later cited another launch of 31 objects, of which only 18 had been identified three and a half days in.\n\u201cWe put our plan in front of all the regulators and in front of the Combined Space Operations Center,\u201d Blake says, referring to the relevant part of the Air Force. \u201cWe wanted to get feedback. We\u2019ve done everything we could think of.\u201d The same day that Kelso tweeted, the Air Force squadron in charge of tracking did seem to subtweet his call to alarm: \"We're working closely with all O/Os [owners and operators] to track & catalog the objects ASAP. Thanks to all O/Os for their cooperation, transparency & support for #spaceflightsafety.\"\nThat process looks like this: Spaceflight gives customers initial data about their orbit, which they use to try to make contact with the satellite as it passes over a ground station. They give resulting information about their satellite's orbit and ID to Spaceflight, and Spaceflight passes that word on to the Combined Space Operations Center (CSpOC). The center analyzes that data along with its own to try to identify individual satellites. \"The procedure to claim an object is somewhat informal,\" says Pekka Laurila, cofounder of ICEYE, an imaging company that launched a satellite aboard the SmallSat Express. It's a conversation with CSpOC in which Spaceflight's customers conclude that certain data blips represent their orbiting progeny, and share their data to back up their assertions. \"Ultimately, it settles out that all the parties have claimed their satellites,\" he says. \"It could easily take multiple days or weeks.\"\nOthers concur: It's not simple. \u201cIf you\u2019re dropped off with a whole bunch of satellites, you can spend weeks not knowing where your satellite is,\u201d says Dan Ceperley, CEO of LeoLabs, a private company that tracks objects in space. \u201cIt can take a long time to figure out who\u2019s who, where you\u2019re going.\u201d Even if CSpOC knows the orbits of 64 new satellites, it doesn't necessarily know which is which.\nIt worked quickly for some companies. HawkEye 360, which launched three satellites to detect radio transmissions coming from Earth, caught its satellites by dinnertime in its DC-area offices.\nThe satellite company Planet, which has about 120 \u201cDove\u201d satellites taking images of Earth, has dealt with big-flock launches before: From India, 88 of its craft took off on a flight with 104 satellites total. \u201cUsually within the first handful of orbits, we\u2019ll make contact with all the satellites,\u201d says Mike Safyan, vice president of launch. Indeed, for the SmallSat Express, Planet had contacted its five satellites before bedtime.\nPlanet's was the \u201cprimary payload\u201d here\u2014even in these egalitarian launches, there are, of course, classes\u2014and so garnered the honor of putting art on the outside of the rocket. \u201cWe went with an homage to the Space Invaders arcade game,\u201d Safyan says. Planet\u2019s payloads are painted on like pixelated conquerors. \u201cIt\u2019s a little tongue-in-cheek,\u201d Safyan explains, \u201cPlanet having the biggest satellite fleet.\u201d (We get it. But does Planet remember that the aim of that game is to destroy the invaders?)\nA less-invasive company called Audacy launched its very first satellite on the SmallSat Express as a test of their communications tech. As of Thursday, Audacy was still trying to identify and make contact with its satellite, separating it out from the many others nearby. \"Since the placement of our ground station allows us only four passes per day, this was expected to take several days,\" CEO Ralph Ewig said on Tuesday. \"A significant part of our mission to build and launch our own nanosatellite was to understand the communications roadblocks our customers face.\" Identification and pingback delays being some of them.\nLeading up to the launch, Ewig was confident, but circumspect. Normally, if something goes wrong with a takeoff or a deployment, only a few satellites will be harmed. That's not nothing, but it is what space insurance is for.\nSo far so good, though. Since Tuesday night, a Twitter roll-call of satellite operators has shouted \"Here!\" \"Here!\" \"Here!\" Still, it'll take time for CSpOC, and some of the satellites' owners, to sort things out. And as thousands more satellites launch, crowding orbits and launch manifests, delineating what's mine and what's yours will only grow more complicated. In space, it's true: No one can hear you scream. But it's important that Earth, at least, can hear a satellite shout, talk back to it, and figure out who's where, doing what.\nPHOTOS: Giving animals the proper portrait treatment\nThe Commercial Space Race Heats Up\nThe private American companies battling it out for a $3.5 billion NASA contract have one last chance to successfully launch their spacecraft before a decision is made in January.",

        "title": "Cable TV Providers in New Hartford, NY | Wirefly",
        "raw_content": "Cable TV Providers in New Hartford, NY\nCable and Satellite TV Providers Available in New Hartford, NY\nConsidering the large number of TV providers in New Hartford, NY, there are all kinds of deals available, but it can also be challenging for consumers to figure out which provider is right for them. Fortunately, the process of selecting a TV provider is much simpler with the right tools, and Wirefly makes comparing options as easy as it gets. It can help whether the user is relocating to a new neighborhood and wants to see what their options are, or simply wants to look into other home TV plans that are available. The Wirefly tool only requires the user to enter their ZIP code, and then it provides all the latest in plans and prices for both cable and satellite TV service. Wirefly isn't limited to just TV, either, as it also shows bundle packages that have TV service combined with phone service, internet service or both of those.\nSelecting the Best Television Service Provider in New Hartford, NY\nBy comparing several satellite TV and basic cable plans, consumers get the opportunity to choose from several cable companies, broadband service providers, satellite providers that are available in the New Hartford, NY area. When using this tool, people can research upgrades like Digital Video Recorders (DVRs), High Definition (HDTV), and other several other upgrades. This website also provides access to guides and informative resources on various television subjects.\nCable TV Companies in New Hartford, NY\nIf a consumer wants to get cable TV in their New Hartford, NY house or apartment, it requires a receiver. The receiver gets plugged into an outlet, where it connects with the cables and wires that will transmit TV service. That TV service originates from the cable company's nearest broadcast center. Although the receiver comes at a cost, this is something cable companies will frequently discount to sweeten the deal for customers. That being said, customers should still expect a monthly service fee for using the equipment. One of the best parts about cable service is that it is unlikely to have any problems during bad weather. The same can't be said for satellite service.\nThere's nothing particularly complicated about hooking up cable TV service. It can take a couple hours, though, and to make sure everything gets connected correctly, cable companies in New Hartford, NY will usually have their technicians handle the job. The cable company will set the cost for this, and most don't provide estimates until the customer goes through the booking process. It can cost as much as $200, although this is heavily dependent on the cable company. When setting an appointment, the customer chooses the day they want and a time block from whatever is available. Time blocks are typically four to five hours, and the technician could arrive anytime within that block, meaning the customer will need to be home the whole time.\nIf the customer wants to skip that and avoid an installation fee, there are select cable providers in New Hartford, NY offering self-installation kits. This isn't the most challenging task, but it will require some basic technical skills. One of the few issues with cable is that it's not an option for everyone. Consumers living in rural locations or areas that are hard to get to may not be able to get cable service because of how hard it would be to connect their home to the nearest broadcast station.\nProviders of Satellite TV in New Hartford, NY\nAs mentioned, the process a satellite TV company in New Hartford, NY goes through to provide service involves encrypted data going from a satellite to the consumer's satellite dish. The provider starts this process by sending the data from their own broadcast center up to the satellite. The nice thing about satellite TV service is that it doesn't have cable's range restrictions. It doesn't matter nearly as much where a consumer is located, opening up satellite to a much larger number of consumers, including those who live in more remote locations that aren't eligible for cable service.\nOne point consumers should keep in mind if they're considering switching to satellite service is that the installation can cost more than it does with cable service, in large part because of the cost of satellite dishes in New Hartford, NY. On the bright side, there are many providers that throw in the satellite dish and the installation free of charge. Consumers can find out what they'll need to pay for in the fine print of the contract. The main problem with satellite TV service is that the weather can affect it far more than the weather can affect cable TV service. If a satellite dish gets tipped over or damaged, that can cut off the consumer's TV service.\nFiber Optic TV Providers in New Hartford, NY\nOne of the newest aspects of technology that's currently being offered to both residential and business customers in New Hartford, NY is fiber optics. This is the fastest digital technology available. Fiber to the Home FTTH) is a very reliable service that is often provided as a bundled package, which includes telephone, Internet, and TV. While many customers still use cable or DSL for their network connections, you can't beat fiber optics for speed and reliability.\nCompare Other Services in New Hartford, NY\nInternet Providers in New Hartford, NY\nBusiness Phone Service in New Hartford, NY\nMortgage Rates in New Hartford, NY\nCell Phone Plans in New Hartford, NY\nHome Phone Service Providers in New Hartford, NY\nBusiness Internet Providers in New Hartford, NY\nHome Security Systems in New Hartford, NY\nAuto Insurance Quotes in New Hartford, NY\nHealth Insurance Plans in New Hartford, NY\nMoving Companies in New Hartford, NY\nArea Codes for New Hartford, NY\nCable TV Providers in New Hartford, NY ZIP Codes",

        "raw_content": "Experience the Difference of Kindergarten at WLPS\nWhitmore Lake Elementary School Offers a Unique Education Experience\nWhitmore Lake Elementary School offers a unique education experience to its students. With less than 500 students enrolled in Whitmore Lake Elementary School, it\u2019s very easy for teachers to truly understand the children they\u2019re teaching and mentoring. Our elementary school extends the idea of a unique and customized education to courses available outside of the core curriculum. Some of the unique courses we offer include art, music, physical education, and more, like the newest Mandarin Chinese program for Pre-K through 2nd Grade.\nWhitmore Lake Elementary School is proud to be ahead of the curve and wants its students to be, too! 5th and 6th Graders will now follow a student-centered schedule based on the Middle and High School schedule. Students will attend school from 7:50am-2:35pm and ride the buses with Middle and High School students, providing a first-hour block dedicated to Project Based Learning with access to all school technology.

        "raw_content": "Lincoln warned, Jan. 27, 1837: \u201cAt what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time, or die by suicide.\u201d\nLincoln stated at Edwardsville, Illinois, Sept. 11, 1858: \u201cWhat constitutes the bulwark of our own liberty and independence? It is not our frowning battlements, our bristling sea coasts, our army and our navy. These are not our reliance against tyranny. All of those may be turned against us. \u2026 Our reliance is in the love of liberty which God has planted in us. Our defense is in the spirit which prized liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands everywhere. Destroy this spirit and you have planted the seeds of despotism at your own doors \u2026 you have lost the genius of your own independence and become the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises among you.\u201d\nLincoln wrote to William Dodge, Feb. 23, 1861: \u201cFreedom is the natural condition of the human race, in which the Almighty intended men to live. Those who fight the purpose of the Almighty will not succeed.\u201d\nReflecting on the slavery in the Southern Democrat states, Lincoln wrote to H.L. Pierce on April 6, 1859: \u201cThis is a world of compensation. \u2026 Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and under a just God, cannot long retain it.\u201d\nThis could also be said of those supporting abortion today, as Ronald Reagan wrote in \u201cAbortion and the Conscience of the Nation\u201d (The Human Life Review, 1983): \u201cLincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should be slaves. \u2026 Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion.\u201d\nLincoln closed a debate with Judge Douglas, 1858: \u201cThat is the issue that will continue in this country when these poor tongues of Judge Douglas and myself shall be silent. It is the eternal struggle between these two principles \u2013 right and wrong \u2013 throughout the world. They are the two principles that have stood face to face from the beginning of time, and will ever continue to struggle.\u201d\nLincoln stated in his first inaugural address, March 4, 1861: \u201cIf the policy of the government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made \u2026 the people will have ceased to be their own rulers.\u201d\nAbraham Lincoln addressed the question as to whether the courts are masters over the people, or are the people masters over the courts (\u201cThe Political Debates Between Lincoln and Douglas,\u201d 1897): \u201cThe people of these United States are the rightful master of both Congresses and Courts.\u201d\nThomas Jefferson made a similar statement to William Johnson in 1823: \u201cBut the Chief Justice says, \u2018There must be an ultimate arbiter somewhere.\u2019 True, there must. \u2026 The ultimate arbiter is the peope.\u201d\nLincoln stated at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, Feb. 22, 1861: \u201cI have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence. I have often pondered over the dangers which were incurred by the men who \u2026 adopted that Declaration of Independence \u2013 I have pondered over the toils that were endured by the officers and soldiers of the army. \u2026 I have often inquired of myself, what great principle or idea it was that kept this Confederacy so long together. It was not the mere matter of the separation of the Colonies from the mother land; but something in that Declaration giving liberty, not alone to the people of this country, but hope to the world for all future time. It was that which gave promise that in due time the weights would be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should have an equal chance. This is the sentiment embodied in that Declaration of Independence. Now, my friends, can this country be saved? \u2026 If it can, I will consider myself one of the happiest men in the world, if I can help to save it. If it cannot be saved upon that principle, it will be truly awful. But if this country cannot be saved without giving up that principle. \u2026 I would rather be assassinated on this spot than surrender it.\u201d\nOn Feb. 11, 1861, newly elected as president, Abraham Lincoln left Springfield, Illinois for Washington, D.C., never to return. He stated: \u201cI now leave, not knowing when or whether ever I may return, with a task before me greater than that which rested upon Washington. Without the assistance of that Divine Being who ever attended him, I cannot succeed. With that assistance I cannot fail. Trusting in Him who can go with me and remain with you, and be everywhere for good. \u2026 Let us all pray that the God of our fathers may not forsake us now.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Books \u00bb Rouge\nPictured In Its Prime\nCovering the Years 1917 - 1940\nSubjects: Automotive Studies, Detroit, Michigan\nRouge: Pictured in Its Prime joins a solid shelf of equally fine books by Ford Bryan that document the many facets, friends, and activities of Henry Ford.\n\u2014 William Clay Ford\nWhen Ford Motor Company was formed in 1903, its primary assembly plant was a wooden one-story wagon shop, but as the auto manufacturer grew, so did its factories. By 1917, building on his experience with the Piquette and Highland Park plants, Henry Ford began constructing his ultimate vision of an efficient and effective industrial complex on the banks of the Rouge River. In its time, \"The Rouge,\" as Detroiters called it, was the largest integrated automobile factory in the world, with facilities that included an electric power plant, blast furnaces, foundries, coke ovens, open hearth furnaces, a steel mill, stamping plant, engine plant, glass plant, and miles of conveyors bringing manufactured parts to moving assembly lines. The Rouge was able to provide over 100,000 jobs and effectively gave birth to the city of Dearborn.\nRouge: Pictured in Its Prime, featuring 389 photographs taken within 45 different departments of the Rouge by Ford photographers from 1918 to 1940, provides a realistic portrait of buildings, machinery, and employees at work during a twenty-two year period. The illustrations were selected from a collection of more than 70,000 Rouge photographs located in the Benson Ford Research Center of Henry Ford Museum & Greenfield Village. In the accompanying text, Ford R. Bryan chronicles the history of the Rouge plant, from its earliest conception to its future in the twenty-first century. The Rouge dominated an era of industrial progress and this photo story brings the monumental facility to life in stunning fashion.\nFord R. Bryan, who lives in Dearborn, Michigan, has written many books about Henry Ford, including Friends Families,& Forays, Clara: Mrs. Henry Ford, The Fords of Dearborn, Henry\u2019s Lieutenants, Beyond the Model T, and Henry\u2019s Attic (all Wayne State University Press). He joined Ford Motor Company as a spectrochemical analyst. His yen for writing led him to the Ford Archives, where he found a gold mine of material about his own family and about his favorite subject, Henry Ford.\nThis book has many strengths. It is a wonderful memorial to the almost mind-boggling size and scope of the Rouge facility. It is also a testament to Ford products and Ford himself, whose personality appears to have been woven into the factory. Bryan's book is absolutely fascinating and a must read for anyone interested in the history of the automobile, or Henry Ford. It wonderfully captures a bygone era in America capitalism when bigger was better and when American innovations and production ruled the world.\nA visual treat and a magnificent tribute to American auto history, every coffee table in the country would be proud to hold this 288-page book. As absolute must for Fordophiles and historians alike.\"\n\u2013 Old Autos\nThis 288-page book is an absolute must for Fordophiles and historians.\nIt is always a pleasure to learn that a record is being set straight or a story is being told that has not been heard completely. It is an even greater pleasure when one discovers that it is done with style, accuracy, and great visual appeal. Ford Bryan's book, Rouge: Pictured in Its Prime, is just this sort of historical presentation. The story of Ford Motor Company's world-famous Rouge factory has been told in footnotes and photo essays, but never in the kind of detail presented by Mr. Bryan. . . . Rouge: Pictured in Its Prime joins a solid shelf of equally fine books by Ford Bryan that document the many facets, friends, and activities of Henry Ford.\n\u2013 William Clay Ford, Detroit businessman and current chairman and chief executive officer of Global Automotive Alliance\nThe Fords of Dearborn - Ford R.

        "raw_content": "In today\u2019s society, it is difficult to believe that racial discrimination in the workplace continues to exist. Unfortunately, it does still happen. But the law is on the side of the employee. Under both federal and California law, it is illegal to discriminate in the workplace on the basis of a person\u2019s race, color, ethnicity, ancestry, or national origin. This law protects all aspects of the employment relationship, from the application and hiring phase to the working hours and conditions phase. Los Angeles employment lawyer Jesse Singh protects employees who have been victim to this type of discrimination. If you currently are facing racial discrimination in the workplace, or have lost your job because of it, our firm may be able to win you monetary damages or have you reinstated in your position, performing the duties you are qualified for. Contact our Orange County office today for a free consultation.\nAreas of Practice | Workplace Discrimination Overview\nResults-Oriented Lawyer Protecting Orange County Employees From Racial Discrimination\nDisparate treatment is a term which simply means that it is illegal to treat an employee different than another on the basis of a characteristic such as race. Disparate treatment can come in many forms such as:\nScreening candidates for hire based on race\nFailing to promote an employee based on racial factors\nAssigning undesirable jobs to people due to their race\nProviding inconsistent discipline across all employees\nNot providing equal compensation for the same work\nEmployees who are victim to disparate treatment often worry that \u201ceveryone knows\u201d about the office culture and policy, but they do not have hard proof of racial discrimination. The laws do not require that the employee present hard \u201cfacts\u201d of discrimination. At trial, we may call witnesses to testify to certain office policies and present indirect or \u201ccircumstantial\u201d evidence of discrimination. In civil trials, circumstantial evidence is sufficient to win a favorable verdict for the plaintiff. Our Orange County employment attorney has experience in discrimination lawsuits and is not afraid to take a company to trial so that he may obtain the end goals which benefit his clients. Our Los Angeles Office is ready to assist you.\nAdvocate for Southern California Employees who Have Endured Harassment or a Hostile Work Environment due to Their Race\nThe state of California does not tolerate racial harassment in the workplace. Harassment may take many forms such as name calling, telling offensive jokes, posting or drawing racially offensive cartoons, etc. If harassment occurs from a supervisor of the company, the company is automatically liable for that supervisor\u2019s behavior. If the behavior occurs from a co-worker, the company must be given an opportunity to correct the problem- but it is required to handle it appropriately without punishing the complaining victim. If you are a victim of harassment in the workplace, but do not know if you should speak up, Jesse Singh can help. He advocates for Southern California employees who have been harassed due to the color of their skin. He will listen to your complaint, determine your legal options, and help you make a decision based on what is best for your career as well as your self-respect. We believe in equality for all in the workplace.

        "raw_content": "Christa Ackroyd: Why Leeds\u2019s \u2018safe\u2019 prostitution zone must end now\nI can still see her now. She was young but she had the face of an old woman. She was thin, not fashionably thin, but malnourished.\nHer skin was blotchy, her eyes desperate and darting. And she begged me for money. \u00a320 was all she needed, she said, to feed her cat. Only it wasn\u2019t for her cat. She probably didn\u2019t even have a cat. What she did have was a pimp. And as she begged for money she looked over her shoulder in case he was watching. He would hit her she said if she didn\u2019t bring him the money. That wasn\u2019t even her biggest worry. Her fix was her focus. And he had the drugs. I didn\u2019t give her the \u00a320. Instead I offered to buy her cat food. She laughed in my face. She knew I knew the game.\nOf course her pimp was her boyfriend. He loved her. He took care of her, she said. She just needed the money to prove she loved him as much as she loved the drugs he provided, the reason she walked the streets and sold sex. I met her during the Crossbow Cannibal case in 2010 when three women selling sex on the streets of Bradford had been murdered. Six months later she called my mobile. She sounded strong and in control. She was clean and living in a safe house. I went to meet her. She wanted to tell me she had made contact with her parents again, was being treated for her drug addiction, but she was lonely. In fact she was climbing the walls. Her only friends had been the girls selling sex for \u00a320 a go .. less if trade was slow. Her pimp had got a message to her that he missed her too. That he knew she missed drugs more. And the last time I heard she was back on the streets. She could be dead for all I know. And she and others like her haunt me. This week residents in Holbeck in Leeds demonstrated outside the offices of their local MP demanding an end to the \u2018safe zone\u2019 where the selling of sex is tolerated ostensibly to protect the girls who trade in it. Indeed Holbeck has been dubbed the first unofficial legalised prostitution area in the country. Shame on us. There is nothing safe about being a sex worker and in Holbeck the number of rapes and violent crimes against these sad unfortunate women has gone up year on year as more and more prostituted women find their way there. The very week the experiment was extended a young woman was murdered. But it went ahead anyway.\nWell I don\u2019t want to live in a society where the selling of sex is tolerated. Prostitution is not the oldest profession in the world. It is the most excused, ignored abuse of women. And it\u2019s happening in every town and city in our country. There are an estimated 80,000 others like the girl I write about. Some are groomed. Some are trafficked. The vast majority are drug addicts. All are exploited. And don\u2019t tell me it\u2019s their right to choose what they do with their bodies. These women don\u2019t chose to sell sex to strangers. It\u2019s hardly a career choice. It is an act of desperation carried out under a cloak of fear. Neither is the solution to legalise brothels, to take these women off the streets. If we can\u2019t police women who have been prostituted to sell sex illegally - which street prostitution is - then how can we protect those who do the same behind closed doors?\nI sympathise with the residents of Holbeck living amongst the discarded needles and condoms.It must be horrible to have their daughters propositioned, to not dare wander out at night. But I sympathise with the women more. The only approach is a multi agency exit strategy where addiction services join with social services, housing and police to support these sad victims of the sex industry. Because they are victims. It works. In Ipswich, where five women were murdered in 2006, 100 exited prostitution and the vast majority never went back. Because they were offered an alternative to the chaotic violent life that is often as addictive as the substances they take to cope with it. There is another solution. Instead of criminalising women sex workers let us criminalise the men who buy sex, as they do in Northern Ireland. It works. Turning a blind eye never does. Yorkshire is rightly famous for its social conscience. It was a Yorkshire MP who led the fight against slavery, Well slavery is still happening on our streets right now and we are being told to just ignore it. It\u2019s the slavery of prostitution and I for one can never accept it. Neither should anyone with a conscience. Holbeck isn\u2019t working. It is time to end this crazy experiment now. There is no such thing as a happy hooker. And there never will be.",

I recommend discussing the issue with your doctor. Tonsil sores could be from many different things, and the most likely possibility for you might be different than it would be for someone else. If you are young and otherwise healthy, there is a good chance that they are either some sort of low grade infection or something that is otherwise not terribly concerning (one possibility includes tonsil stones, or tonsilliths, which are little impactions that can be made when food packs into the crypts in the tonsil). You don't seem to mention any other complications or effects, such as pain or fever, which leads me to believe that you are just noticing them rather than suffering from them. If you are older and are noticing continuous sores on your tonsil (or anywhere else for that matter), it would make your doctor think about different possibilities. Much of what your doctor thinks and does depends on who you are and what is most likely for your age group. Also, what they look like would be important. Again, please speak with your doctor about these sores.\nMy cheeks are swelling, what is wrong with me?\nAre hormones used as part of thyroid cancer treatment?\nWhat is going on with my ear?\nCould using CPAP cause my nose to be congested?",

Yoyo TrickIn this video I am going to try to address the questions Why Won\u2019t Your Yoyo Sleep, and help you figure out how to get your yoyo sleeping again if it even can do that. Now sleeping, of course, is any time the yoyo spins down at the bottom of the string. Of course, you can bring the yoyo back up. Sleeping is the foundation for all kinds of tricks. It can be really frustrating if you get a yoyo and it used to be able to sleep and it no longer can sleep. It is going to make learning a lot of tricks impossible if you can\u2019t get that right, so in this video I am going to try to show you how to get your yoyo to sleep again.\nI am going to look at 4 different types of yoyos and I am going to address why it won\u2019t sleep in each case. I am going to address them in this order, so if you know what kind of yoyo you have, you can just skip ahead in the video and try to find the section where I talk about the yoyo that you have.\nThe four types of yoyos I am going to talk about are cheap yoyos that you might get at a dollar store, or something like that. Fixed axle yoyos, these are any yoyos that are made of wood, or your less expensive Duncan yoyos like the Butterfly or Imperials, something like that. Then I am going to be talking about Brain yoyos, and finally ball bearing yoyos.\nThe first yoyo that may not sleep when you get it is what I just call a cheap yoyo. This is something you get at a dollar store, or if you go to some sort of event like a car show, and they give away yoyos for free, with General Motors or Ford written on it. This is a yoyo that you have not paid that much money for. Maybe somebody gave you a yoyo as a gift and there is no logo at all on the side of the yoyo, almost like the company is too embarrassed to own up to the fact that they made this product. All of these types of cheap yoyos may not sleep at all. If you have gotten one of these and it cannot sleep it may be just because it has been designed poorly or cheaply, and the yoyo itself just can\u2019t sleep. So, if you want to start learning tricks on YoTricks.com you are going to need a yoyo that can sleep. We have all kinds of yoyos for players of all different skill levels. We suggest that you check those out. You can learn how to get a yoyo to go up and down with a cheap yoyo, but that\u2019s about it.\nThe next type of yoyo is, you may have gotten a fixed-axle yoyo. The Lightening Yoyo, this is a wood yoyo that we carry on YoTricks, this is a fixed-axle yoyo. Any yoyo that has a wood axle, also your Butterfly yoyo, your Imperial yoyo, your inexpensive, common Duncan yoyos. Not all Duncan yoyos, but the less expensive ones that you might find at a drug store, or a grocery store, something like that. These yoyos, if you get one of these, they should be able to sleep. A lot of times when you first get a yoyo like this it sleeps and it is just fine, and then as you are using it and as you are using it over time, all of a sudden it will just stop sleeping. And you are wondering, why isn\u2019t my yoyo sleeping? What may have happened is your string may have gotten too tight. You can know if this is what happened if the string has gotten like this. What that means is that the string has gotten wrapped so tightly around the axle that it is no longer free to spin freely. That\u2019s why it won\u2019t sleep. We have a trick called the UFO that you can learn that can help you loosen the string so that the yoyo can sleep again. Just like that. Another way that you can deal with a string that is too tight, especially if you are a beginner, is you can just take the yoyo right off your finger and you can just pull the string out like this and let the string hand at the bottom. You can see it is untwisting. When you bring it back together you will see, most of those twists are out. The yoyo should be able to sleep after that. If it is still not sleeping you may have gotten a knot around the axle.\nYou might need to either cut that out or replace the string or something, that should be able to do it. You may also have put the string on wrong, so you are going to need to learn how to put the string on. Basically, for a fixed axle yoyo, all you want to do \u2013 you will want to get a yoyo string, other string won\u2019t really work \u2013 but you just want to put the string on one time, just like that. That should allow the yoyo to sleep. If you need help with getting the yoyo on the string the right way, we have another video about adjusting your string that will show you how to do that in a little bit more detail.\nThe next kind of yoyo that you may have is a Brain yoyo. A Brain yoyo is any yoyo that has this kind of mechanism in it and that clutch system is supposed to allow the yoyo to be a little easier to use. If it is your first yoyo you may wonder how come you can\u2019t get it to sleep even though you know these types of yoyos can sleep. The way this mechanism works is you actually have to throw the yoyo hard enough to be able to get it to sleep. That is actually the way the yoyo is designed. The way this clutch works, is it grabs onto the axle when the yoyo is not moving, or when it is moving slowly, and the more powerful you throw it that clutch system opens up and allows the axle to spin freely. Once the yoyo slows down those clutches come in, they grab the axle and they bring the yoyo back up without you ever even pulling the yoyo up with your hand. Just like that. If you have gotten one of these yoyos, you have not been able to get it to sleep, I suggest you checkout our video about the basic throw. We give you a couple different techniques to improve your throw, to get it some more power, so that you can get the yoyo to sleep.\nIf you know that you are throwing it hard enough and it is still not sleeping you may have put the yoyo together wrong, so you can checkout the packaging on the yoyo so you can see if you can figure out how it is supposed to go together. We also have a review of the Yomega Brain, where we show how to put it together, so you can also check out that video. Hopefully that will help you out.\nThe last kind of yoyo which is becoming the most popular kind of yoyo these days, most of our yoyos on YoTricks are like this, is the ball bearing yoyo. The is the Luminator, which is the yoyo we use to teach just tons and tons of our tricks on YoTricks. It is good if you are just getting started learning some string tricks and stuff like this. If you have gotten one of these yoyos and it was sleeping find and all of a sudden it has stopped sleeping you may wonder, again, Why isn\u2019t my yoyo sleeping anymore? With these yoyos, probably the most common thing that happens is, as you are using it, maybe you want to take it apart, or maybe it fell apart while you were using it, and then you put the yoyo back together and it stops sleeping. What happens a lot of times with beginners is they want to put the string on the bearing while the yoyo is apart. Once they put the string on, they push it on, try to get it on there just right, then once they get the string on they screw the yoyo back together. What they don\u2019t realize is that the string has slipped off the bearing a little bit and now the string is caught in between the bearing and the yoyo. It can\u2019t move freely and allow the yoyo to spin. The way you solve this problem is, you should not put the string on the yoyo while the yoyo is apart, instead you should put the yoyo together first and then you open up the string and put the yoyo right on the string just like that. That will make sure that the string doesn\u2019t fall in between the bearing and the yoyo. Another thing that can happen is, if the bearing gets a little bit loose while you are playing with it, and you notice it so you tighten it back down, always make sure to check to make sure the string did not get caught between the bearing and the yoyo. That can happen if it loosens up a little bit. Sometimes if your string is a little too old, it might be getting a little bit thin, so the same thing can happen even if the yoyo has not come apart at all. In that case you are just going to need to change the string. A lot of times if you have been playing with it with the string caught between the bearing and the yoyo the string might get a little bit cut, so you might want to change it if that happens because the string might break on you pretty quick.\nAnother thing that can happen with a ball bearing yoyo is if you take it apart, maybe you don\u2019t realize that there is a bearing in there, you\u2019ve lost the bearing. If you put the string on and try to throw the yoyo that way the yoyo is not going to sleep either, because the yoyo is meant to sleep on the ball bearing, but the little metal bearing inside is gone so it is just the string sitting on the plastic, and that doesn\u2019t really work at all. If that is the case we have replacement bearings on YoTricks that you can checkout, and that should solve the problem.\nI hope this video has been helpful. If you have any other questions about why your yoyo may or may not sleep just let us know, but these seem to be the most common reasons. We hope that helps you out.",

        "raw_content": "REO Speedwagon Reunite With Former Guitarist at Benefit Concert\nImages by Lynn\nAs it turns out, the Rock to the Rescue benefit concert at Bloomington, Ill.'s U.S. Cellular Coliseum was aptly named. Although organizers won\u2019t have a final tally until early next week, they already know that they raised more than $300,000, with additional funds still to come as online donations and merchandise sales continue.\nThe money will aid central Illinois residents, many of whom had their homes damaged or destroyed when recent storms brought tornadoes and high winds to the area. Having cut their teeth as rockers in the Illinois music scene, the members of Styx and REO Speedwagon knew they had to do something to help. They quickly assembled an all-star lineup of their Midwestern musical brethren that would have been an impressive evening of entertainment without any additional enhancements.\nBut as the house lights went down, more than 7,000 fans at the sold-out concert would soon discover that more surprises were waiting in the wings. Ted Nugent, a late addition to the lineup, joined Styx and his former Damn Yankees bandmate Tommy Shaw for a few songs. REO Speedwagon also welcomed both Larry the Cable Guy (the benefit's MC) and fellow Illinois native Richard Marx to the stage.\nBut the most unexpected moment of the night came when former REO guitarist Gary Richrath joined the band onstage for the first time since his departure in 1989. Richrath, who has performed live very sporadically since leaving the band, came out to guest on the group\u2019s signature \u2018Ridin\u2019 the Storm Out,\u2019 one of many songs that he wrote during his time with REO.\nWe reached out to REO\u2019s Kevin Cronin, and he told us the story of how it all came together:\n\"From the moment we started planning this benefit concert for the Illinois tornado victims, we were thinking how cool it would be if Gary were there. Unfortunately, we had no luck getting a hold of him.\n[It] turns out he had been sitting on the porch of his mother Eunice's house in East Peoria when the sky darkened. He knew exactly what was coming. Luckily, the tornadoes missed them.\nGary was in great spirits when he walked into the dressing room. We hugged one another, I told him how happy I was that he came, and he expressed his gratitude for the invitation. Dave [Amato] had set up one of his Marshall amps for Gary to play through. Gary brought along a vintage Les Paul, and the stage was set. When I introduced \u2018the guy who this band wouldn't be here without\u2019 and Richrath came up for \u2018Ridin' the Storm Out,\u2019 7,000 people went crazy. The response was arm-hair raising ... We all felt it. It was fun to look over to my left and see Richrath digging in and playing like only he can. It was a night for the ages.\nThere was a video crew working to capture the event, so with luck we will have something in the not-too-distant future.\nNaturally Bruce [Hall], Neal [Doughty] and I were happy to see Gary, but it was really cool the way Bryan [Hitt] and Dave hung with him and made him feel welcome and respected. It was a great vibe all around ... Made me feel proud to be part of the REO family.\"\nYou can still donate by visiting the official Rock to the Rescue website here.\nSource: REO Speedwagon Reunite With Former Guitarist at Benefit Concert\nFiled Under: nl, REO Speedwagon",

        "raw_content": "The case for business leadership in a world divided\nA strong call for a rules\u2013based multi-lateral system of trade was made by the Secretary General of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), Mr John W.H. Denton, AO, when he addressed ABIE members and guests on 19 November in the impressive Place Vendome chambers of host, international law firm White & Case.\nIn a far-reaching talk that touched on economic integration, climate change and world trade, Mr Denton pointed to the gathering storm clouds of volatility, ambiguity, mistrust and instability: \u201cRules are being challenged and undermined. Tariffs are being raised to the level we have not seen since the 1930s.\u201d\n\u201cIt is our international institutions and rules themselves that are now being questioned and even actively undermined to an unprecedented extent.\u201d\nThe intersection of trade and politics\nWhile stressing the importance of the intersection of trade and politics, he pointed to an eroding of public trust: \u201cA recent poll showed that 85 per cent of people do not believe the system is working for them. Even in Australia, with 27 straight years of economic growth, there is a feeling that the system is rigged. Yet 80 per cent of job loss is due to mechanisation.\u201d\nSpeaking on global economic integration, Mr Denton underlined the lack of preparation for the impact of new technologies that are changing the nature of the economic environment: \u201cChange is difficult, especially at the pace and scale we have seen in recent decades. It requires investment in re-skilling and redeployment programmes \u2013 the kind that have rarely been properly conceived and resourced, certainly not at the level needed.\u201d\n\u201cTo take the example of global trade, the multilateral system has repeatedly missed opportunities to sufficiently adapt to emerging economic and technological trends.\u201d\nThe imperative for a multilateral trading system\nReferring to climate change, world trade reform and global poverty, Mr Denton argued that business should move beyond merely voicing concern over rising protectionism. While there is an imperative for business to stand behind the multilateral trading system, companies should focus on helping governments chart a new course for trade policymaking that deals meaningfully with the pressures now building in the global economy. One of the key challenges will be how to build consensus for open economies.\n\u201cWe have approached a point at which business cannot afford to sit on the sidelines of these global challenges.\u201d\nDrawing a parallel with the founders of the ICC, who founded the organisation in the 1920s, Mr Denton highlighted the pivotal role for business in overcoming these challenges: \u201cICC\u2019s founders were referred to as the \u2018Merchants of Peace\u2019 for having recognised the critical link between trade, economic growth and peace between nations.\u201d\nJohn Denton is the first Australian to hold the position of Secretary General of the ICC.\n\u201cThe ICC was born from the ashes of World War I, a part of the pact made around the League of Nations. I\u2019m very proud to be able to lead this organisation into its 100th year.\u201d\nJohn Denton, the first Australian Secretary General of the ICC\nEarlier in the evening, Angus Mackenzie, Deputy Head of Mission at the Australian Embassy Paris and Australian Ambassador to UNESCO, highlighted the many achievements of this global business leader in international policy, trade and investment:\nA former diplomat and Partner and Chief Executive Officer of Corrs Chambers Westgarth; Board member of IFM Global investors \u2013 one of the world\u2019s major infrastructure investors; Board member of the United Nations Global Compact; Founding member of the B20, the Australia \u2013 China CEO Roundtable and Chair of UNHCR in Australia; Co-leader of the Australian Government\u2019s White Paper on Australia in the Asian Century and previously Chair of the APEC Finance and Economics Work Group; Out-going Chair of the Global Engagement Taskforce of the Business Council of Australia; and one of the founders of Human Rights Watch (Australia) and Teach for Australia. Mr Denton was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Australia in 2015 for his services to the business community, the arts and the rights of refugees.\nBernard Tabary, President of ABIE and CEO International of Keolis, concluded: \u201cAustralia should be proud to have one of its prominent citizens lead such a prestigious and influential organisation.\u201d\nABIE President Bernard Tabary welcomes guests to White & Case to hear Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO discuss the case for business leadership in a world divided (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nAustralian Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the OECD Brian Pontifex, Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO, and ABIE President Bernard Tabary listen to Australian Ambassador to UNESCO Angus Mackenzie (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nAustralian Ambassador to UNESCO and Deputy Head of Mission at the Australian Embassy Paris Angus Mackenzie welcomes Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nSecretary General of the ICC John Denton AO presents the case for business leadership in a world divided (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nSecretary General of the ICC John Denton AO takes to the floor to discuss the case for business leadership in a world divided (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nABIE members and guests listen to Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nAustralian Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the OECD Brian Pontifex, Australian Ambassador to UNESCO Angus Mackenzie, Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO, ABIE President Bernard Tabary and White & Case Partner Andrew McDougall (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nAmbassador and Permanent Representative to the OECD Brian Pontifex, Ambassador to UNESCO Angus Mackenzie, Secretary General of the ICC John Denton AO, ABIE Vice-President Veronica Comyn, ABIE President Bernard Tabary, White & Case Partner Andrew McDougall and ABIE Board Member Diana Bowman (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nABIE Board Member Marti Georgeff (ABIE/Bridget Rive)\nBusiness Breakfast: Withholding income tax: pr\u00e9l\u00e8vement \u00e0 la source (PAS...

With nearly 40 \u00b0C and an exhausting humidity, it was no love at first sight. But in retrospect, China's old port to the world has much more to offer than blinking lights and shopping malls.\nWhile the city and its crowds were a bit stressing for us, the Hongkongers just took their relaxed break wherever needed.\nDriving on the left is one of the few things, that still reminds you of the colonial era. Barely any small, historical buildings are left, as space is rare and money is big in HK.\nI'm still not sure, if it's gentle irony or simply absurd, that the plants right behind this sign were all plastic.\nOf course there is not just one, but even four subway lines crossing the Victoria Harbour between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Nevertheless, the ferries offer a much better view on the impressive skyscrapers.\nEverything is so dense in HK, that even the \"Ding Ding\" trams are double-deckers. A cheap and relaxed way to discover Hong Kong Island, if you are not in a rush.\nOut of the city, we thought. Into a more moderate climate, we thought. Actually the thermometer at one of the beaches we passed on the way to Aberdeen showed 38\u00b0C, with humidity close to the maximum. Unter these conditions and still a bit jet-lagging it wasn't really a joy to discover the fish market and floating village of Aberdeen with several thousand fishermen living on their boats right next to unbelievable high apartment blocks. Next time I have to be better climate and timezone adjusted!\nStill not adjusted to the tropical climate, we started another attempt. We took the tram up on the city's highest mountain, Victoria Peak, instead of hiking. Out of the urban jungle you get dropped right into the real one \u2013 with a breathtaking view of Hong Kong's skyline on top.\nIf there is one thing to love immediately in Hong Kong, it is the food scene. On our way back to the hostel we found one of the best dumpling restaurants in town: Ding Dim 1968 in Soho. Don't miss it!\nBye Bye, Hong Kong\nSomehow we were glad to leave this hot, humid, overcrowded concrete jungle after three days \u2013 but looking back, we just may not have been ready yet to immerse deeper in the city's culture and history.",

        "title": "Biography - Alexander Beatson Balcombe - Australian Dictionary of Biography",
        "raw_content": "Balcombe, Alexander Beatson (1811\u20131877)\nby Kathleen Thomson\nAlexander Beatson Balcombe (1811-1877), pastoralist, was born on St Helena, the youngest of five children of William Balcombe (1779-1829) and his wife Jane, n\u00e9e Cranston. William senior had settled at St Helena in 1804 as a merchant and was also superintendent of public sales for the East India Co. When Napoleon was exiled to the island Balcombe became purveyor to his establishment. Before Napoleon moved to Longwood in November 1815 he lived in a pavilion on Balcombe's estate, The Briars, and became attached to the family, especially the younger daughter Lucia Elizabeth (Betsy) who later wrote Recollections of the Emperor Napoleon (London, 1844). The friendly association ended abruptly in March 1818 when Balcombe was dismissed from the island on suspicion of acting as an intermediary in clandestine French correspondence with Paris and of negotiating bills drawn by Napoleon. Although never charged with any offence, Balcombe was regarded by Lord Bathurst and the governor, Sir Hudson Lowe, as at least a dupe of the French, and was not allowed to return to St Helena. He remained in England with a dwindling income, acute gout and continual fear of positive punishment until in 1823 Lowe relented under strong pressure from Jane Balcombe and her parliamentary friends. Balcombe was then appointed colonial treasurer of New South Wales. With his family he arrived in the Hibernia at Sydney in April 1824. His elder daughter died on the voyage and Betsy, who had married Edward Abell in London on 28 May 1822 and had been deserted by her husband, soon returned with her child to England.\nBalcombe died at Sydney on 19 March 1829, leaving his affairs in disorder. Creditors took most of his livestock, and his widow, left only with his land grants, petitioned for a pension without success. Unabashed she went to London to renew her plea; the Colonial Office gave her \u00a3250 to return to Sydney with her daughter and granddaughter and promised land and government posts for her children. Betsy and her eldest brother, William, were given land adjoining their father's 6000-acre (2428 ha) grant, Molonglo, near Bungonia, County Argyle, where they lived for some years. Long before William died at the Turon goldfields aged 44 on 29 January 1852, Betsy had gone to France where she was favourably noticed by Napoleon III who granted her land in Algiers; she died aged 69 on 29 June 1871 in London.\nThe second son, Thomas Tyrwhitt (b.1810), had attended the Sydney Grammar School and, while working for the Australian Agricultural Co. at Port Stephens, injured his head in a fall from a horse. In September 1830 he was appointed a draftsman in the Surveyor-General's Department with a salary of \u00a3150. By 1833 his work was unsatisfactory but he was saved from dismissal by the promise to his mother and put on field work. By 1837 he had won repute as a spirited painter of animals; some of his work is at the Mitchell Library. He was praised for his pictures in the Aboriginal Exhibition in 1848, did a portrait of Edward Hargraves in 1851 and illustrated (G.F.P.), Gold Pen and Pencil Sketches: Adventures of Mr. John Slasher at the Turon Diggings (Sydney, 1852). On 27 June 1840 he married Lydia Stuckey; they had three children. In 1858 the death of his eldest daughter intensified the fits of mental aberration from which he had long suffered. He continued as a government surveyor, but after many threats to end his life deliberately shot himself in the head on 13 October 1861 at his home, Napoleon Cottage, Paddington.\nAlexander, named Beatson after a governor of St Helena, attended Sydney Grammar School and became a clerk in the Commissariat Department. He was dismissed 'for negligence' in April 1831 and, after his mother returned from England in 1833, joined the family at Molonglo. In 1839 he went to Port Phillip with William Rutledge and party, and liking the country returned to Molonglo to make preparations for permanent settlement. On 30 August 1841 at Bungonia, County Argyle, he married Emma Juana, second daughter of Dr David Reid, of Inverary Park. Alexander bought livestock and took his wife to Port Phillip in 1842; they stayed for some time at Merri Creek and in 1843 settled at Schnapper Point, which Balcombe named. In 1846 he took over the run Chen Chen Gurruck, or Tichingorourke, changing the name to The Briars. The property extended from the present Mornington to Mount Martha and was held under pastoral licence until 1854 when he bought 1000 acres (405 ha).\nIn the 1850s Balcombe joined the search for gold. In his absence, Emma Balcombe, who was a friend of Georgiana McCrae, displayed great courage when raided by bushrangers. On his return from the diggings, somewhat disillusioned, Alexander settled down to pastoral pursuits and the life of a country squire. He was appointed a magistrate in 1855 and was first chairman of the Mount Eliza Road Board formed in 1860. He also experimented unsuccessfully with wine production. He died aged 66 on 21 September 1877 at his home, Eastcourt, East Melbourne; his widow died on 3 June 1907. They had two sons and five daughters and Dame Mabel Balcombe Brookes is a granddaughter.\nM. Brookes, Crowded Galleries (Melb, 1956)\nH.

        "raw_content": "O'Connor, Joseph Graham (1839\u20131913)\nJoseph Graham O'Connor (1839-1913), journalist and politician, was born at Dareen House, King's County, Ireland, son of Stephen O'Connor, tanner and currier, and his wife Ann, n\u00e9e Graham. At 2 he went with his parents to New South Wales. Educated by the Christian Brothers and at the Sydney College, he was apprenticed to a wood engraver and printer.\nIn the late 1850s O'Connor began business as an engraver and printer and in 1860 produced the short-lived Sunbeam for the Catholic Young Men's Society. In 1864 he joined W. B. Dalley, W. J. Macleay and J. J. Harpur in bringing out the unsuccessful Sydney Times, devoted to 'the promotion of Australian literature and the advocacy and encouragement of native industry'. In 1867 he began the Balmain Reporter, one of the earliest suburban newspapers. His journalistic pursuits became more exclusively Irish and Catholic. In 1870-71 he edited and printed the Catholic Association Reporter. In 1876 he had debts of over \u00a31400, sold his press and was not discharged from bankruptcy until 1884 after paying 3s. in the \u00a3. In 1877 he had begun the Catholic Times in opposition to the Freeman's Journal. In 1880 Archbishop Vaughan was dissatisfied with the Freeman's independent attitude and bought the Catholic Times, changing its name to the Express. In 1884 O'Connor took it over again and began the Nation, devoted to Irish news; he incorporated it in the Express in 1887. In 1890 debts forced him to close his last newspaper venture and his estate was again sequestered. He had supported his unprofitable newspapers with a mostly successful printing business, but in 1892 his friends had him appointed chief clerk on the Water and Sewerage Board at Newcastle, from which he retired in 1909.\nAs a youth O'Connor had helped to collect funds to relieve the 1858 Donegal famine victims and next year became an original member of the Celtic Association. In 1869-72 he was lay secretary of the Catholic Association, founded by Archbishop Polding in 1867 to support a separate system for Catholic schools. In the 1870s and 1880s he organized several concert tours of country districts to raise funds for the Church. Active in municipal politics with various Irish Catholic factions, he was auditor of the Sydney City Council in 1870-74. After several attempts he was elected in 1873 to the Legislative Assembly for Mudgee in the Catholic interest. Defeated in 1875, he lost again in 1880. O'Connor helped to organize the annual St Patrick's Day celebrations and did not eschew more controversial Irish causes: in 1866 he was treasurer of the Irish State Prisoners' Fund, organized to assist the dependants of Fenian prisoners in Ireland; in 1871 he helped to welcome Fenian prisoners released from Western Australia and in 1883 he was one of the few prominent Irish Catholics to welcome William and John Redmond. Affectionately known as 'old white hat' from the topper he invariably wore, he chaired their first Sydney meeting and was president of the local branch of the Irish National League. He remained close friends with the Redmonds and helped later Irish delegates.\nAt Sydney in 1861 O'Connor had married Mary Earl (d.1903). He died of bronchitis at his Mayfield home on 22 July 1913 and was survived by a married daughter. The Irish Parliamentary Party contributed to a monument over his grave in Sandgate cemetery.\nJ.

As the students arrive, they are divided into groups and given a bright colored \u201ccowboy\u201d hat. The hats not only keep track of the different groups (each group has a different color hat) but the youngsters love them and they set the stage for an \u201cAG\u201d day!\nThe Student Tours will consist of visiting 5 stations representing different aspects of agriculture and participate in a variety of hands-on activities. Schools will be assigned to a tour that will have a balance of plant and animal science. Students will need to bring a packed lunch.\nThe cost for this awesome experience is only $4.00 per student/parent/chaperone! Teachers are FREE. Pre-Registration is required and schools will receive a confirmation packet if selected to attend Ag-Venture. We select schools on a first come, first serve basis once registration is opened.\nAg-Venture started in 1994 from a partnership of local agriculture commodity groups, Hillsborough County Farm Bureau, Florida State Fair and Hillsborough County Extension Service. We formed a 501(c) 3 corporation operating under the name Ag-Venture, Inc. Our first tour in 1994 started with 5 stations and 600 students. Today we have over 20 stations and educate over 6,000 students each year.",

        "raw_content": "Farmer Gary Darpinian, above, standing near a Modesto Irrigation District canal, says he is concerned water-flow requirements contained in a new draft proposal by the State Water Resources Control Board could dramatically influence how much water he will have to irrigate his farm. He grows cling peaches, almonds and walnuts near Modesto.\nA Modesto Irrigation District canal, above, provides water collected in Don Pedro Reservoir on the Tuolumne River. A plan released by the State Water Resources Control Board last week proposes to leave more water in the Tuolumne and other tributaries to the lower San Joaquin River during periods the board considers key for \u201cat-risk native fish species.\u201d\nAffected irrigation districts, farmers and others have started poring over thousands of pages of documents that detail a state water board proposal to reserve more water for fish in the lower San Joaquin River watershed.\nThe State Water Resources Control Board released a revised plan last week that proposes to leave more water in the main tributaries to the San Joaquin\u2014the Stanislaus, Tuolumne and Merced rivers\u2014during periods it considers key for \"at-risk native fish species.\" The proposal from board staff recommends that between 30 percent and 50 percent of the rivers' \"unimpaired flow\" be dedicated to fish, compared to an average of 20 percent under current conditions.\nCalifornia Farm Bureau Federation President Paul Wenger said water supplies directed to fish should be subject to the same efficiency standards as those affecting farmers and homeowners.\n\"For years, regulators have been requiring increasingly more water in the name of environmental protection, but fish populations have continued to decline,\" Wenger said. \"Regulators have no idea how many more fish\u2014if any\u2014would result from dedicating even more water to environmental purposes. But we do know one thing: This will hurt people.\"\nWenger estimated the board proposal could dry up as much as 240,000 acres of Central California farmland\u2014with no guarantee the redirection of water would help the fish it's intended to benefit.\nThe board said its plan aims to enhance the flow of water through the system for protected salmon and to maintain salinity standards through the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The proposal would result in significant impacts to water supplies on the eastern side of the San Joaquin Valley, from San Joaquin through Stanislaus and Merced counties.\nWater and agricultural organizations estimated the board proposal could result in an average of another 350,000 acre-feet of water being dedicated to outflow, which would come on top of restrictions on deliveries to other water users that resulted in a redirection of approximately 1 million acre-feet of usable water this year alone.\nFarmer Gary Darpinian, who grows cling peaches, almonds and walnuts within the Modesto Irrigation District, said he is concerned the board proposal could dramatically influence how much water he will have to irrigate his farm; the district receives surface water from the Tuolumne River.\n\"If the districts are required to release that much water, it's going to have a very serious impact on how much water is left,\" Darpinian said. \"The other thing that I would be forced to do, without question, is to drill more wells.\"\nJake Wenger, a Modesto-area farmer and MID board member, said the board proposal would require the district to restrict agricultural water supplies to an average of 20 inches per acre.\n\"There's a lot of commodities grown in our region, but not a single one of those can produce a crop on 20 inches per acre,\" he said.\nFarmer Ron Macedo of Turlock, who serves on the Turlock Irrigation District board, agreed that the proposal from the state water board would likely force growers to pump more groundwater\u2014and said it comes at a time when implementation of the state Sustainable Groundwater Management Act will lead to additional regulation on that source.\n\"With all of the groundwater regulations that are being put on the books, you could really devastate agriculture here in this whole San Joaquin Valley,\" Macedo said.\nFarmers are doing their share when it comes to water efficiency, he added, such as investing in measuring devices and in drip and micro-irrigation. And, he said, irrigation districts act sustainably by saving water during wet years.\n\"It is up to the state to put in other infrastructure to capture this water,\" Macedo said. \"We need more storage to transfer water in wetter years in ways that are environmentally sensitive. You can't just take away from the districts that have saved water.\"\nOther irrigation districts in the affected region expressed similar concerns. The Oakdale and South San Joaquin irrigation districts called the plan \"misguided.\"\n\"Increased flows without accurate scientific knowledge backing these flow requirements do not take into account the proactive water conservation and fish habitat improvements that these two districts have taken seriously for years,\" the two districts said in a joint statement.\nAn economic impact report prepared for the Merced Irrigation District in July said the board proposal \"would have adverse economic consequences for Stanislaus, San Joaquin and Merced counties, a region beset by high unemployment and other impacts of a lingering recession and drought.\" The document predicted the plan would cause the Merced County economy to shrink by $231 million.\nA coalition of local governments and organizations in Stanislaus and Merced counties expressed opposition to the plan, saying, \"Our region has never been more united on this issue,\" and citing impacts to economic growth and groundwater supplies, a primary source of drinking water for local communities.\nCFBF President Wenger described the approach outlined in the board plan as untested, unproven and unpromising, given past results, and also cited the impact to the regional economy.\n\"Forcing farmland to be fallowed\u2014as this proposal would surely do\u2014degrades the unique environmental resource represented by California farmland, and will hurt people and the economy throughout the region and state,\" he said. \"It would create another area of chronic water shortage and economic distress, without any proven environmental benefit.\"\nWenger said Farm Bureau will urge the water board to revise the proposal and work with local water managers and communities to create \"a balanced plan to help the environment without causing needless suffering\" to people in the affected areas. He said the plan must also comply with the state's longstanding system of water resource allocation, must afford operational flexibility and must emphasize other factors affecting fish populations, such as predation and habitat.\nComments on the proposal are due on Nov. 15. The board said it would hold public hearings Nov. 2 and Nov. 10 in Sacramento, and Nov. 4 near Modesto, and that it would consider approving the proposal at a public meeting in early 2017.",

Some 3000 years ago, a small village was born at the southwest of the modern Beijing. From the 12th Century to 1911, it was the capital city for the Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Beijing is ever reshaping throughout centuries a thoroughly modern metropolis, covering an area of 16,800 square kilometers and encompassing a population of 22 million. You will find the city an unforgettable destination, with its ancient Great Wall, the Forbidden City and numerous palaces and temples as a reminder of dynasties lost in the mists of time. Moreover, the city has refreshed its character by a growing number of parks, recreational centers, folk shows during holiday celebrations, splendid theaters, and a grand city outlook.\nForeigners traveling to the People\u2019s Republic of China are required to possess passports that are valid for at least six months beyond the period of their intended stay in China. Based on the regulations on foreign affairs, foreigners MUST obtain a visa before entry into China, and exemption of visa is given to citizens of Brunei, Japan or Singapore holding an ordinary passport if they enter China through ports open to foreigners and stay in China for no longer than 15 days. Attendees are advised to consult the nearest Chinese diplomatic mission for more details regarding visa application. Usually, a single entry visa is valid for three months from the date of issue, and can be extended for an additional month at the Foreigners Section of the Local Public Security Bureau if necessary. Visa application should be made preferably at least one month before the intended departure for China.\nAttendees may apply for either a business visa (category \u201cF\u201d) or a tourist visa (category \u201cL\u201d) at the local Chinese embassy/consulate.\n\u201cF\u201d visa: an invitation letter produced by the local congress organizer (The China International Conference Center for Science and Technology) will be provided to facilitate your visa application. In order to receive the Invitation Letter, you need to complete your online registration (with registration fee paid). In addition, you are required to provide us with all the information/documents required for processing the visa invitation letter through the online registration system. Upon receiving these, a letter will be produced, and an electronic copy of this letter will be sent to the e-mail address that you used for registration.\n\u201cL\u201d visa: An invitation letter is NOT required to get an \u201cL\u201d visa. For more details regarding the tourist visa, please consult your local Chinese embassy/consulate.\nJuly in Beijing is sunny and hot. The average daily temperature is about 23\u00b0C / 73.4\u00b0F, with highs of around 36\u00b0C / 97\u00b0F and lows of around 11\u00b0C / 52\u00b0F.

Two types of sockets are used: three-pin socket (a grounding pin and two flat prongs forming a V-shape) and two-pin socket (two flat parallel prongs without grounding).\nThe renminbi (literally \"people's currency\") is the legal tender in the mainland of the People's Republic of China. The official abbreviation is CNY, although also commonly abbreviated as \"RMB\". Money exchange centers can be found at the airport, most hotels and large shopping centers. The exchange rate at present (2013) is roughly US $1 = 6.10 Chinese RMB. When exchanging money, please keep your exchange memo so that you can convert any remaining Chinese currency back to foreign currency upon leaving China. Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club and JCB are accepted in many department stores and hotels. It may be difficult to withdraw cash with credit cards.\nBanks and most hotels can cash travelers' checks issued by many foreign banks or financial institutions. Participants will need to show their passport and pay a 0.75 percent commission fee. Travelers' checks signed over to a third party cannot be cashed in China, but can be presented for collection through the Bank of China.\nAll flights arrive at Beijing Capital International Airport, which is 30 kilometers from town, and is served by major international airline companies. Airport bus shuttles connect the airport to different parts of downtown Beijing, including Friendship Hotel of Beijing. But the most convenient way is to take a taxi at the taxi stand; the cost is around 120 Chinese yuan.\nFor more information about China and Travelling in China, please visit:\nChina Travel Solution at http://www.chinatravelsolution.com\nChina International Travel Service at http://www.cits.net",

During the 2017 season, Clemson lost to Syracuse on a Friday night in the Carrier Dome, 27-24.\nMany people on the internet have suggested the September 14th could be a potential landing spot for ESPN's College Gameday show. Syracuse is one of the few Power five schools that has never hosted the show.\nShould College Gameday broadcast from Syracuse on September 14th?

(AP) \u2014 Unbeaten Enola Gray romped to a 7 3/4-length victory Friday in the $150,000 Fleet Treat Stakes for California-bred 3-year-old fillies.\nRidden by Tyler Baze for trainer Phil D\u2019Amato, Enola Gray ran seven furlongs in a stakes-record 1:21.24. The previous record of 1:21.40 was set by Princess Royalty in 1990.\n\u201dI\u2019ve never won a race any easier,\u201d Baze said. \u201dShe\u2019s just unbelievable. She\u2019s so special. I\u2019d say the race was probably over by the half-mile pole. She just goes so easy. All I\u2019ve got to do is keep her happy. She handles all the rest.\u201d\nEnola Gray paid $2.20, $2.10 and $2.10 for her third career victory.\n\u201dShe\u2019s learning to relax in her races and flash a turn of foot,\u201d D\u2019Amato said. \u201dShe\u2019s slowly coming around. She showed a new dimension today, she sat off the pace and kicked home and did it the right way. There\u2019s still a lot of room for improvement and development in her. We\u2019re just going to take it step by step and see what happens. I don\u2019t have any plans for her next race yet.\u201d\nAllsquare returned $3.20 and $2.40, and Fantasy of Luck paid $2.20 to show.",

        "raw_content": "warning: Fluff, OOC, death?\nnotes: Surprise?\nIt's been forever and a day since then. But wouldn't you know, I can still remember the first time those two met. Heero was waving that gun of his around, pretending like he was going to shoot that Peacecraft girl or something. I'll tell you what...I wish he had, now. Oh, don't you call me cold. She was a brat, plain and simple. But anyway. Heero was going to shoot her head clean off, I think, and here comes Duo, braid flapping and gun pointed, ready to shoot off the arms that would one day be what held him up. Imagine that!\n\"It's obvious that you're the bad guy here. Are you all right, miss?\"\n\"Why did you shoot him??!!\"\nDamn, that voice was shrill. But this isn't a story about my feelings for Relena. This is a love story.\n\"You'd better come up with some better way to kill yourself than that,\" Duo said when he hoisted Heero's arm over his shoulders and helped him to stand. Heero just humphed. Baka! But that was the beginning of what would be a beautiful friendship.\nWhat? Even one as ancient as me has to use some cliches. Geez. But you know all about the way the war went. It's in all the books. What I want to tell is the way they fell in love. I mean, *really* fell in love.\nYeah, after all the significant looks. After the war. They had to learn to live again, you know. Now let me talk...I won't be around forever, you know. And there's lots to tell. Where should I start? I guess I could begin with the first time Heero showed up at the scrap yard where Duo worked. Everyone always thought he disappeared...well, he did, for a while. He had to find the perfect way to tell Duo he loved him, after all.\nLet me tell you, knocking on a door (so what if it *was* from a discarded car?) with a bunch of daisies in your hands will do the trick, if the look on Duo's face that day was worth anything.\nThat was the first night they ever really got to be friends. You know, the kind that can sit around and play cards and tell stupid jokes. I loved the way Duo looked when he found out Heero had a personality.\nYou think I loved Duo? Well, of course I did. Was Heero possesive? Oh yeah. Hehe. Now I know you're confused. But all in good time. The story first.\nHmmm, now. Vignettes might serve my purpose. I could tell about Heero's first experience with ice cream. Duo dragged him to a cart in the park and ordered him a waffle cone with three scoops of double fudge. Now *that* was funny. Heero couldn't have come up with a mission plan for that one if he tried. But Duo sure had fun cleaning up the mess.\n\"Heero, you have chocolate all over your face.\"\n\"Well, what am I supposed to do about it? You dropped the napkins in the pond.\"\n\"They had hearts on them anyway. Here, then. Let me get it.\"\n\"Duo? What are you doing? Du----mmph.\"\nSee? Their first kiss. Made me feel all fluttery, too. Of course, lots of stuff they did made me feel that way. Like, when Duo gave Heero his first Christmas gift.\n\"It's a mobile. I made it myself.\" [1]\n\"Remind.\"\n\"Silly. You have to hang it up. See, the shapes are all things that are special to us. Remember when we watched Peter Pan? Well, there's a thimble, just like you gave me afterward. And this dragonfly? Well, that's for the time I was so sick, and you took me to the lake to see the dragonflies, and you told me they came all the way to tell me everything was going to be fine.\"\n\"You made this?\"\n\"From my heart.\"\nAww! See? I told you it was a love story. And they loved, that's for sure. I still think about the first time they made love. The first was the best, even with all the times they did afterward.\n\"You won't. I want you inside me. I love you, and that will take away the pain. I promise.\"\n\"Here, put this on your fingers...now, touch me here.\"\n\"Are you sure this won't hurt?\"\n\"Yes-ssss. Oh, gods.\"\n\"So this is all right, I take it?\"\n\"Wipe that grin off your face. Mmmm. Oh, koi.\"\nWell, they sure had a time then. I won't bore you with all the details. What? You want them? Geez. When I was younger, this sort of thing was special. Stayed in the lovers' hearts. Geez.\n\"Mmm. Oh gods, harder, please.\"\n\"I love you. No. Don't close your eyes. I want to see your soul when you come.\"\n\"Who ::pant:: taught you to ::pant:: talk like that, love?\"\n\"It's coming from my heart. You're so beautiful when you sweat.\"\n\"Not like you. Ohhh...koi, I---can't---\"\nAll right...enough of that. You know damned well what happened! Let's just say it was a nightly ritual from then on. Hmmm...what can I tell you to get your hentai minds off of that, now? Ah, yes. Their first Easter, that will do. Heero never realized that before one hides the eggs one must boil them.\n\"Heero? What are you doing out there? It shouldn't take this long! How many did you make, anyway? Can I come out now?\"\n\"My arms are full. Hold on just a few mor---whoa!\"\n\"Hee-koi? Are you okay? What the---Oh, lordy!\"\n\"Quit your laughing. I tripped.\"\n\"I can't help it! This gives new meaning to the term 'egg on your face.'\"\nYessir. They had fun, didn't they? There was the time they first visited a fair together and Heero got sick on the Gravitron, (who would have guessed?) and their first dog, (\"Shinigami, for sure. Or Hugo.\" \"Hugo, then.\" \"Awe, Heero!\") And I could never forget the time when they were in theatre together in college. Heero wanted to try out for the play and Duo would be damned if a girl would play the lead opposite his koi. So the University of San Diego saw its very first Japanese Benedick and male Beatrice. [2] The sweetest thing, though, was that the letters in the end scene were real.\n~Heero, I want you to know that I love you with all my being, and that you are my heart. Duo.~ ~You bound me with your heart, hair, and love. Heero.~\n\"Our own hands against our hearts...come, I will have thee. But by this light, I take thee for pity.\"\nThe laughter in the theatre that night couldn't have eclipsed the brilliance of those two smiles. And the proposal ended up being real.\n\"What's this, Hee-chan?\"\n\"Open it, baka.\"\n\"Oh my gods. Where did you...\"\n\"Doesn't matter. It matches your eyes. Will you?\"\n\"With all of my heart!\"\nBet you're wondering, eh? Well, it was a set of rings, celtic knots [3] with amethysts and sapphires dropped in. Beautiful, those were. And so was the ceremony. Everyone came, even the Peacecraft girl. And the Eskimo kiss that preceded the liplock was too cute for *my* words. [4]\nDuo never took that ring off, either. Not even when he was old and wrinkly and had to tie it to a string around his finger so it wouldn't fall off. He was wearing it that way even when he was in his bed, Heero crying next to him.\n\"Don't cry, koi. Boy's don't, you know.\"\n\"I'm not a boy, Duo. We're men.\"\n\"So sad, those eyes. Did I ever tell you how much I love them, Heero?\"\n\"Well, I think that's what color the sky will be, where I'm going.\"\n\"Oh, Duo. I love you. You're my heart.\"\n\"And you're mine. Dry those eyes, now, red isn't a good color with them. And don't worry, lover. Look at me.\"\nIt wasn't too long ago that Duo died. Heero's been lonely as can be, too. But they'll be together again. Everyone's getting old.\nSpeaking of, it's about time for me to head on. Shame, too, since I didn't even get to tell you everything that I wanted to. Oh well. I'm sure you know. More important things to tend to, now. Heero's getting restless. Time to close down the shop.\nIt's been the most wonderful thing, you know. Being Heero's heart.\n[1] I made my koi one of these for Christmas.\n[2] Shakespeare's \"Much Ado About Nothing.\" Love it!\n[3] Celtic knots are what Levi and I went with for our wedding rings.\n[4] We did that, at our ceremony.

        "raw_content": "There is an increasing need for people who can convert written material from one language to another. Translators are responsible for re-writing documents that were written in a \u201csource\u201d language into documents written in the \u201ctarget\u201d language which is usually the translator\u2019s native tongue. However translators must have expert command of both languages in order to capture the true meaning of the source language when changing it into the target language. The website ww2.prospects.ac.uk says that translators work on many types of documents ranging from scientific and technical to commercial literary or legal. There is no formal requirement for translators to have a specific degree or certification although some employers give preference to those holding an advanced degree in a foreign language. However some translators are bilingual from early childhood or they may attain fluency in a second language by residing for some period of time in a foreign country. Salaries for translators depend on their experience as well as on the organization for which they work. Also the more languages they know the greater their chances for employment especially when they can translate from languages that are not commonly known. Some organizations employ in-house translators but many translators work from their homes on a freelance basis. The website www.buzzle.com says that the average annual salary is approximately $38000 but can be $72000 or more if translators know more than two languages and if the languages in which they are fluent are not mainstream or familiar to very many people. For example those translating Spanish will most likely be compensated less than those translating Chinese.\nTasks: Converts written words from one language to another.\nKnows at least two languages fluently.\nAttempts to translate documents word-for-word.\nMaintains the meaning of what was originally written.\nAlso Called: Interpreter\nAdditional Resources: http://ww2.prospects.ac.uk/p/types_of_job/translator_job_description.jsp\nhttp://www.ehow.com/about_5382931_job-description-translator.html\nhttp://www.buzzle.com/articles/translator-job-description.html",

It was known that some of the finest cloth you could get anywhere in the world was from India. Textiles became one of the major commodities of trade between India and other countries. Cotton was also cultivated in India before anywhere else. From cotton came cloth through the development of the spinning wheel, another early contribution of India, and which dates back to over 5000 years. With textiles also came the art of making and the use of dyes and colors.\nWe also find that textiles played an important part of the contributions and developments for which ancient India became known. In Our Oriental Heritage, Will Durant explains, Athe growing of cotton appears earlier in India than elsewhere; apparently it was used for cloth in Mohenjodaro. During the excavations at Mohenjodaro a small fragment of cotton fabric and a small piece of cotton string in the neck of a vessel were recovered. The quality of both fabric and the string leaves no doubt that a mature textile craft had existed in the Indus Valley civilization.\nDr. Stanley Wolpert, professor of history at UCLA wrote in the publication India: AAncient Indians were the first humans to spin and weave cotton into cloth that continues to provide our most comfortable summer attire.\nFurthermore, in Cotton as World Power, Dr. James A. B. Scherer explains, AIndia is the original home of cotton. Centuries passed before the new goods made any impression on England, whose people wore wool exclusively. When cotton goods did begin to come in, a fierce conflict ensued with wool, which was then styled, the revenue and blood of EnglandBso important was it in the economic life of the people. 1\nHow cotton finally spread to England can be described like this: It was in the 1st century when the Arab traders brought the fine muslin and calico from India and sold it to Italy and Spain. The Moors then introduced the cultivation of cotton into Spain in the 9th century. Fustians and Dimities were woven there in the 14th century, in Venice and Milan, at first with a linen warp. Little cotton cloth was imported to England before the 15th century, although small amounts were obtained chiefly for candlewicks. By the 17th century, the East India Company was bringing rare fabrics from India.\nThe medieval Arabs took up the art of textiles from India, and their word quattan gave the English word cotton. The word quattan is derived from the original Sanskrit word kantan, which means making a thread out of a cotton ball. The name muslin was originally applied to fine cotton weaves made in Mosul from Indian models; and calico was so called because it came from Calicut on the southwestern shores of India, first in 1631. 2\nOf course, cotton cannot become cloth unless there is a way to make the thread. And through a simple investigation we can find that the spinning wheel was one of India\u2019s earliest contributions to the famous cloth that they were able to produce. Britannica\u2019s Concise Encyclopedia relates: AThe spinning wheel is an early machine for turning textile fiber into thread or yarn, which was then woven into cloth on a loom. The spinning wheel was probably invented in India, though its origins are unclear. It reached Europe via the Middle East in the Middle Ages.\nProfessor D. P. Singhal of the University of Queensland, Australia provides more clarity on this by writing in India and the World Civilization (page 176): A The spinning wheel is an Indian invention.\nTo give more credence to this line of thought, in her book Spinning Wheels, Spinners and Spinning, Patricia Baines reports of written evidence to the presence of spinning wheels in Persia in 1257, and linguistic evidence that suggests they came to Persia from India. Therefore it is most likely that they were in operation much earlier than this. The significance of the spinning wheel is that it is one of the first examples of a belt-transmission of power.\nFrom the cultivation of cotton and the invention of the spinning wheel and the loom came some of the finest textiles the world has seen. India has been known for its brilliant and high quality cloth for hundreds of years. In History of India, Elphinstone writes: AThe beauty and delicacy of (Indian cotton cloth) was so long admired, and which, in fineness of texture, has never yet been approached in any country. Murray also writes therein: AIts fabrics, the most beautiful that human art has anywhere produced, were sought by merchants at the expense of the greatest toils and dangers.\nJames Mill also writes in History of India: AOf the exquisite degree of perfection to which the Hindus have carried the production of the loom, it would be idle to offer any description; as there are few objects with which the inhabitants of Europe are better acquainted. Whatever may have been that attainment in this art of other nations of antiquity, the manufacturer of no modern nation can, in delicacy and fineness, vie with the textiles of Hindustan.\nTHE ANTIQUITY OF CLOTH MAKING\nThe making of cloth goes back to ancient times in Bharatvarsha (India). It is even described in the Vedas how Sage Gritsmad made the first cloth from sowing cotton, then making thread with a wooden bobbin, and then cloth. Of course, India has been known for its beautiful textiles for many years. Making saris from silk, or with colored dyes, or embroidered with gold or silver thread, have made them into a desirable item in all parts of the world.\nCotton was cultivated, then spun into threads and woven into cloth since ancient times in India, dating back at least 4000 to 5000 years ago. The Greeks did not know of cotton until Alexander invaded India where they found cotton for the first time. They had not found it in the previous countries through which they traveled, including Egypt, Mesopotamia or Persia. Previous to this, the Greeks had used only wool in their woven fabrics.\nFrom the findings at Mohendjodaro, a piece of cotton has been discovered that shows people at that time, 5000 years ago, were aware of the means to make and use it for clothing. Cotton was greatly cultivated in fields near Kashi (Varanasi) as well, which was an important center for textiles since the times of Lord Buddha. The skills of the spinners and weavers enabled them to make them extremely fine. In fact, Buddhist literature includes many references to the magnificent cotton spinners and weavers, relating that the fabrics were so fine that even oil could not penetrate the cloth.\nLater, Kashi also became a major center for its silk manufacturing and products. The area of Gandhara (modern northwest India and Pakistan) and Vahika, near the Sindhu, Sutlej and Beas Rivers, were also known for its fine woollen chadars and shawls. 3\nMany centers for the production of textiles existed. Kashmir was known for its woolen weaves and embroidery, places like Benares, Ujjain, Indore, and Paithan near Aurangabad, were known for their fine silks, as were places in the south like Kanchipuram. Rajasthan also specialized in all manner of patterned prints and dyed cloths, and also in carpet-making.\nTraders from ancient Greece, Egypt and Arabia ordered cotton cloth from India. They were especially known for the sheer quality of the cloth. When the French traveler and trader Tavernier visited India in the 17th century, he described the cotton clothes, by saying, AThey are so light and beautiful that you cannot even feel them with your hands, and the delicate embroidery is hardly visible.@ In another place he writes, AA Persian Ambassador went back from India and gifted a coconut to his Sultan. The courtiers were amazed at this petty gift. But more amazing was the fact that when the coconut was opened, a roll of 30 yards of [Dacca] mulmul [fabric] came out of it.\nIn 1835 Edward Benz wrote, AThe Indians in every age have, in the textile industry, maintained an incomparable and matchless standard. Some of their mulmul clothes seem to have been made, not by humans but by fairies and butterflies.\nDYES AND COLORING AGENTS\nFurther archeological evidence from Mohenjodaro shows that the knowledge of mordant dying was in existence from the second millennium BCE. And the use of block printing on textiles in India was known since 3000 BCE. Some historians view India as the original home of block printing. Stuart Robinson in his A History of Printed Textiles reports that the export of printed fabrics to China can be dated back to the fourth century BCE. They had been very much appreciated by the Chinese and even imitated by the Chinese craftsmen. Also at the Khmer capital of Angkor, Chou Ta-kuan, the Chinese observer, wrote at the end of the thirteenth century that the preference was given to Indian weaving for its skill and delicacy.\nProf. A. R. Vasudeva Murthy and Prasun Kumar Mishra explains the attraction for India=s colored fabrics: AAs already mentioned, India was in the forefront of the textile industry till the end of the 18th century. This was one of the most competitive industries of the country and probably the most successful textile industry of the world. Its beautiful and colored textile products of cotton, silk, wool, and jute attracted the whole world from time immemorial. The Indus Valley people were acquainted with the red color of the madder root. There were more than 100 coloring agents of both mineral and vegetable origin and possibly a few of animal origin for dyeing the fabrics and other articles of every day use. Indigo was the other most famous dye extracted from the plant indigofera tinctoria for dyeing various shades of blue. It may not be out of place to mention that indigo plantation was prevalent in India on 1.6 million acres of land till the beginning of the 20th century. Germany began to manufacture this coveted dye with cheap industrial raw materials on a commercial scale from 1897 onwards and gained the world monopoly. This practically killed the Indian indigo industry by 1914. 4\nTEXTILES WERE A MAJOR FACTOR IN\nINDIA=S TRADE WITH OTHER COUNTRIES\nAncient Rome was known for having good trade relations with Bharatvarsha, ancient India. The chronicles of the Greek Periplus show that a variety of spices, good textiles (muslins and cottons), along with iron, gems and ivory were traded. Rome also supplied in return such things as cut gems, coral, perfumes, papyrus, copper, tin, and lead. Payments were generally in gold or silver coins at that time. The Roman writer Pliny (23-79 CE) mentioned that the costs of such things were quite high. He also wrote that, ANot a year passed in which India did not take fifty million sesterces away from Rome.\nIt is interesting to note that Romans were great fans of Indian textiles, to the point that much of the gold of Rome was drained from its coffers to buy Indian textiles. Some of these gold coins of early Rome have been found in several parts of southern India. Roman records indicate that at one point the Roman senate banned the import of Indian muslin to stop the drain of their gold. 5\nThe Greek geographer Strabo (63 BCEB20 CE) and the Periplus records also mention the Gujarat port of Barygaza (Broach) as a place that exported fine Indian textiles. The thirteenth century Chinese traveler Chau Ju-kua refers to Gujarat as a source of cotton fabrics of every color. Also Marco Polo recorded the exports of Indian textiles to China and South East Asia from the Masulipattinam (Andhra) and the Coromandel (Tamil) coasts in the largest ships in the thirteenth century.\nThe old Tamil text Silappathikaarum (The Ankle Bracelet) from the late 2nd century CE, describes the wealth of some of the cities and maritime trading ports in southern India at that time. It relates that the markets offered a great variety of precious and prized commodities. The city of Puhar was populated with merchants and traders where there was a spacious forum for stored bales of merchandise, marked to show the quantity, weight and owner\u2019s name. Even whole streets were specialized in particular commodities, such as coral, jewelry, pearls, sandalwood, gold, and other precious gems. Skilled craftsmen also brought finished items such as woven fabrics, silks, ivory carvings, jewelry and so on to be sold and later traded in far corners of the world. North India also had its centers for such trading as well, such as Taxila, Patilputra, and others.\nJohn Guy in his Arts of India, 1550-1900, mentions that in Broach had also been the discovery of a hoard of gold and silver coins mostly from the fourteenth century, belonging to the Mamluk kingdom of Egypt and Syria, which suggests the serious trading in exchange for precious metals.\nEven the rough fabrics were useful and became popular outside India. The early Indian sacks made of jute and hemp, used for packaging goods, were named after the Sanskrit word of Goni or Gonika, which became known as the A gunny sack in English.\nIt is also reported that the attractiveness of fast-dyed, multi-colored Indian prints on cotton in Europe as one of the factors that lead to the formation of the London East India Company in 1600, followed by the Dutch and French counterparts thereafter. However, by the late 1600s, there was such overwhelming demand for Indian textiles, no matter whether from Bengal, Patna, or Surat, that ultimately the French and English wool and silk merchants prevailed on their governments to ban the importation of these imported cottons from India. The French ban came in 1686, while the English followed in 1701. Nonetheless, textile producing centers that catered to the internal or overland trade continued to prosper. Even today the uniqueness of India\u2019s textiles, whether in shoulder bags, purses, saris, shawls, clothes, sheets, carpets, etc., remains high in global interest and of prized possession.\n1.

        "raw_content": "The joys of taking a leap of faith\nBy Anna Milograno\nIf you had told me two weeks ago today that I would be going to an Anglican conference in North Carolina, I wouldn\u2019t have believed you. And that\u2019s exactly what happened. My mom came home from work two weeks ago Tuesday night and randomly told me about this conference in North Carolina she was helping to prepare for at work. She thought I would really enjoy it, but there was no way I could go because all the spots were filled. The next morning, I got a call from my mom asking me if I wanted to go to the conference because one girl from our diocese had to drop out at the last minute. I asked if I could think about it and said I would give an answer the next day (Thursday). After talking to a couple of friends, my parents, and God, I decided that this was a door God had opened for me and I would regret not walking through. So I took the leap into an unknown adventure God had planned for me.\nThere are two things that stand out in my memory: becoming good friends with the other youth on the trip and meeting the Baroness Cox, of Queensbury. Since I was the only person I knew from my church who went to the Provincial Assembly, I was a little nervous about making friends. While I was able to meet some people prior to the first planned youth event, we didn\u2019t start to get to know each other until we left to go to the activities planned for the 16-25 year olds.\nBut what really helped us bond, in my opinion, was the Afternoon Adventure on Friday. As of recently, my favorite word is adventure so I was excited to see what was going to happen. The Afternoon Adventure could be summed up with the words, \u201cfree time.\u201d It was a chance for us to hang out, take a nap (which some people gladly did), go play miniature golf or sand volleyball, or take a hike. Some people went to hike or go up to the gym, while others napped or went to some of the adult sessions, and some of us hung out and talked. It was really cool to see how well everyone connected, even with people who weren\u2019t there for the Assembly. We all had a great time at the bonfire Friday evening and decided to make a Facebook group for the youth so we could keep in touch easier. It\u2019s crazy to think that we didn\u2019t know most of these people existed a week ago and now we\u2019re good friends. When you step back and let God work, He\u2019ll introduce you to people who bless you and whom you can bless back.\nOne other incredible God moment was the way He orchestrated my meeting with Baroness Cox. She is an awesome woman, who, at age 74, travels constantly to places like the Sudan and Burma, passionately working on behalf of the persecuted church. Thursday night, before the voting, our diocese had a quick meeting to connect with one another. Before it started, Heather Adams came over to where the youth were sitting and told us about Baroness Cox and encouraged us to go hear her speak the next day. Friday morning I let God take control of my day and basically followed Him wherever He took me. I left the youth morning session early so I could go down to Spilman Auditorium to hear the Baroness speak. Her talk was as incredible as people said it would be.\nSomething my university requires is a Cross-Cultural Experience. In order to graduate from Asbury University, we have to travel to a different country and serve there for at least 7 days and 6 nights. I have yet to fulfill mine, and as a rising junior I still had no idea what to do or where to go, but Baroness Cox\u2019s talk renewed my excitement for the trip. As I was leaving to head to lunch, I ran into Bishop Guernsey who asked me what I thought and I replied that I loved her talk. I explained my Cross-Cultural requirement and said that I was excited to fulfill it. He asked me if I wanted to meet her, to which I replied with an excited yes! Later that night, as I was waiting for a friend before heading up to the youth bonfire, I ran into Bishop Guernsey again and he told me that Baroness Cox wanted to meet me and to look for him tomorrow so he could introduce us. I was so excited; I couldn\u2019t believe that she actually wanted to meet me. I started praying that God would give me the words to say because I really didn\u2019t know what to talk to her about. Later I got the impression that I should mention my Cross-Cultural Experience, so I did.\nThe next morning at breakfast I had the chance to meet her. I thanked her for speaking and mentioned that her talk helped motivate me to fulfill my cross-cultural requirement for school. She took that to heart and introduced me to Donna Mundy, her executive director for HART in the US. Then both of them gave me their business cards and encouraged me to email them so they could keep me updated about the different trips HART would be planning in the future. Baroness Cox asked me what the next year looked like for me, and it was possible something could happen next summer after I finish my spring semester in May. This was beyond anything I could have imagined or anticipated to happen at the Assembly. I still can\u2019t believe how God did it, but then I guess that\u2019s why He\u2019s God and not me.\nIf you had told me all this, and more, was going to happen to me two weeks ago, I would have rightly have disbelieved you and promptly ignored it. However, in a way I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t know because then I wouldn\u2019t have been able to marvel at God\u2019s incredible providence. He taught me that life is so much better when I give Him control and step back out of the spotlight. He\u2019s given me new friends and a chance to travel to a new country to minister to people I\u2019ve yet to meet. God is so good and incredibly amazing when I give Him control.\nAnna Milograno is an undergrad at Asbury University in Wilmore, KY studying media communications.

        "raw_content": "Little House on the Prairie, Starsky & Hutch, Smoking Aces, Juno...who do you think all these movies have in common? You got it, Jason Batman plays a role in all of them and more. The variety of roles he has played ranges from comedy to animation to drama to TV to action, he has done everything. He has also had a variety of lead roles and cameos which he has nailed; none of us will ever forget Pepper Brooks from Dodgeball. How many times have you said \"It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see how it plays out for them.\" Well, you can thank Jason Bateman for that delivery. Starting with his TV roles, he has played in some hugely successful shows, Little House on the Prairie, Arrested Development, and Ozark are the three biggest ones. They are all big shows and all three roles he played were very different; Little House is a drama, Arrested Development is a comedy, and Ozark is a gritty, dark crime thriller. Arrested Development and Ozark he was the lead role and really set the table for the show to be successful. Watching Ozark I realized he has never really had this type of role before but he absolutely nails it in my opinion. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it.\nBateman has starred in some extremely successful movies. His top 5 box office movies are: 1. Zootopia ($341 million), 2. Hancock ($227 million), 3. Juno ($143 million), 4. Identity Thief ($134 million), and 5. The Break Up ($118 million). That list doesn't include Necessary Roughness, Starsky & Hutch, Dodgeball, Smokin' Aces, The Kingdom, or Horrible Bosses. (2 interesting bits of information I found: 1. He was the lead in Teen Wolf Too which was his first movie and has a 3.2 rating on IMDB, way to bounce back from that one. 2. He was in a movie titled Love Stinks in 1999, the reason this is interesting is because French Stewart was the lead and I had no idea he ever had a leading role.) He has played a variety of characters and had a variety of roles, in Starsky & Hutch he plays a supporting role to Vince Vaughn's drug dealing character, in The Kingdom he is a special agent in Saudi Arabia, and in Dodgeball he stars in a cameo role as Pepper Brooks announcer for ESPN 8: The Ocho. Sure he has had his duds but since Teen Wolf Too most of his movies have been successful and good movies.\nHe has a Golden Globe for his role in Arrested Development and also has a Kids Choice Award for Zootopia. He has also began producing and directing both TV shows and movies. I think he is one of the most reliable actors in Hollywood right now from TV to movie roles. For these reasons I think Jason Bateman should be included in the list of best actors, so next time someone asks you \"Who are your favorite actors?\" I hope you think back to this article and include Jason Bateman in your list.",

I ride with Team Orange \"It's a state of mind.\" We can do this if we act together, as team to me means Together Each Accomplishes More.\nI ride simply because I want to be apart of putting an end to HIV/AIDS.\nDid you know that the funds raised by the ACT ride help people living with HIV in Wisconsin LIVE LONGER than ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE COUNTRY! I am excited by this fact. Among clients served by AIDS Resource Center of WI (ARCW), 94% live in povery, but no one is turned away due to inability to pay. So, I keep returning to my bike and my network of friends to help me meet this challenge of ending AIDS. We need to do this as a team, so I'll fly if you buy. I'm training hard to get up all those hills and to be able to put on 250 miles in 3 days (75, 100, and 75 mileage) and I need your help.\nI must raise a minimum of $1,000, but I live by Madison Fire Station #5's adage \"Above and Beyond\" so please meet me at the challenge of doubling that. Pledge today to support my ACT 17 ride.\nFor check writers: Write out to ARCW with my name in the memo line\nMailed to me: Lori Karst 3455 Freedom Lane, Madison, WI 53718\nCredit card: website www.aidsridewis.org and click on the box \"DONATE\" Search for my name, and submit donation.\nCash: I can come to you!\nBonus Raffle Tickets!

Delegations varied between support and criticism of the Chair's latest draft proposals.\nHungary (on behalf of the EU) supports the incremental improvement of the draft paper. The EU does not consider it appropriate to include provisions on victim assistance, since the ATT \"is not a disarmament treaty\".\nDenmark reiterated its objections to including transportation in the definition of transfer as it is difficult to implement within a licensing system. Sport and hunting weapons should be included, although the reporting measures could depend on the amount/type of weapons transferred (reference was made to the UN Firearms Protocol which foresees the adoption of simplified measures on reporting/licensing.\nAlgeria suggested deleting any reference to international humanitarian law and human rights law in the criteria section, since this can be \"easily politicized\" and noted that in any case these issues are covered in the objectives section.\nCosta Rica stresses the importance of transparent reporting procedures. As to definition of transfer in Annex A. They suggested to add \u201cor\u201d. This reads as \u201ctitle to and/[or] control over the equipment\u201d\nNorway suggested including a reference to armed violence and not only on armed conflict in paragraph 9 of the Principles section. They also suggested adding a reference to the UNSC resolution on women, peace and security (i.e. Resolution 1820, as well as Resolution 1828 on sexual violence)\nJapan suggests that it will not be possible to regulate all the types of transfer, therefore there is a need to redraft the provision on transfer.\nIran called for the need to have an independent section on Principles in addition to the preamble. On paragraph 19 (Recognizing that States may adopt more restrictive measures than those provided in the ATT), they suggested that the provision may be equivalent to a unilateral coercive measures.\nLichtenstein recalled that the three pillars of the UN include human rights and development and noted that these are goals in themselves and should not be dependent on security issues (see Goals and Objectives paragraph 4).\nSwitzerland referred to ambiguities on transfer (Section 2 of the Scope). They felt there was no specific need to include manufacture under foreign license as a separate item. They proposed new wording to define transfer:\n\"Section II: International transactions covered by this Treaty include those listed below:\na. Export (includes re-export and temporary export)\nb. Transit (includes transshipment)\nc. Import (includes temporary import)\nd. Transfer of title or control over conventional arms from the jurisdiction of one State to another\ne. Transfer, by tangible or intangible means, of information which is required for the design, development, production, manufacture, assembly operation, repair, testing, maintenance or modification of conventional arms (Transfer of Technology).\nf. Activities of negotiating or arranging contracts, selling or trading of conventional arms from a third country (Brokering).\"\nMexico (on behalf of several American States) proposed the inclusion of diversion in the criteria section (5 F). On paragraph 9 (Principles), they suggests adding a reference to armed violence on this paragraph as well as in the section on goals and objectives. On criteria, they called for only \u201cgross and systematic violations\u201d of human rights to be covered (B3) and argued for the inclusion of a reference to international criminal law (B4).\nNew Zealand suggested changing the word \u201crestrictive\u201d in para 19 of Principles, in order to avoid any confusion on the legitimate right of a State to go beyond its own international legal obligations.",

An IOC member since 2001, he became an executive board member in 2012 and is said to have wielded considerable influence in the voting to retain modern pentathlon as a core Olympic sport at the EB meeting in February.\nThe 54-year-old, an amiable presence around the Olympic Movement, bounced back strongly from Madrid\u2019s crushing defeat in the 2020 Olympic bid race, a bitter blow for Spain and high-ranking NOC officials including himself.\nWith Norway\u2019s Gerhard Heiberg departing as head of the IOC marketing commission after the Sochi Games, Samaranch is one of those being touted as a successor. Drawing on his nine years on the commission, the son of the late former IOC president is a strong candidate to land the position.

Two years later, he was fired and out of work. Hence this book, written with candor but out of bad feeling and a sense of betrayal.\nThe black hats are numerous--the duplicitous and vain Dan Rather (colder and more calculating in real life than Jack Nicholson's wicked portrayal of a news anchor in \"Broadcast News\"); Van Gordon Sauter, Joyce's capricious patron and boss, and the assorted money men, agents and on-air personalities who saw CBS News not as a forum for principled journalism but as a sideshow of the entertainment division and as a cash cow.\nAs such, Joyce's version of the undoing of CBS is less that of \"Broadcast News\" and more Paddy Chayefsky's \"Network.\"\nBest Game Around : Nothing Slaughters Ultimate Cash Cow",

Oh, Really?\nOn numerous occasions last week, I heard journalists and media commentators say that no government has won a by-election from the opposition since 1911.\nIt was repeated over and over. It was asserted again on Insiders yesterday and on Sky News last night.\nThe context, of course, is the batch of four by-elections \u2013 in Mayo, Longman, Braddon and Fremantle \u2013 that are about to take place following the resignations flowing from the High Court\u2019s Section 44 decision on former Senator Katy Gallagher. A fifth by-election will take place due to the resignation for personal reasons of the ALP\u2019s Tim Hammond in Perth.\nThe Liberal Party has decided not to contest Perth or Fremantle, so these seats should now be easily retained by the ALP.\nThe Liberals are favoured to retake their traditional stronghold of Mayo, especially given the Xenophon implosion.\nSo attention centres on Longman, in Queensland, and Braddon, in Tasmania. Can the ALP hang on to these two seats it won back last time? Could the government take one or two seats off the opposition?\nA swing of just 0.8% would see Longman return to the government. Braddon needs 1.5%. It\u2019s do-able but it\u2019s tricky. Afterall, it hasn\u2019t happened since 1911\u2026\nWell, no\u2026 [Read more\u2026]\nFiled Under: A.L.P., By-Elections, Liberal Party, Political History Tagged With: Charles Frost, Franklin, George Foley, Hugh Mahon, Kalgoorlie, William McWilliams, William Morris Hughes\nNew Research Paper On House By-Elections\nThe Parliamentary Library has released a new research paper on House of Representatives by-elections since 1901.\nThe paper is titled: House of Representatives by-elections: 1901-2015. It is writted by Stephen Barber of the Statistics and Mapping Section.\nThe paper is displayed below, in accordance with its Creative Commons licence.\nThe paper\u2019s updated statistics show that the party complexion of a seat has changed on just 35 occasions out of 149 by-elections. The average two-party preferred swing against the government of the day has been 4.0 per cent.\nOther data shows that that the average number of nominations for by-elections has grown from 2.2 to 11.6.

Defeated in 1998, he returned in 2001 as the member for Canning, winning re-election in 2004, 2007, 2010 and 2013.\nEarlier this year, Randall seconded a spill motion against Prime Minister Tony Abbott. The motion was moved by fellow Western Australian MP Luke Simpkins and was defeated in the partyroom by 61 votes to 39.\nA by-election will now be held in Canning. It will test whether the strength of feeling against the Abbott government is as strong as Randall said it was in February.\nAt the last election, Randall held the seat with 51.07% of the primary vote and 61.81% of the two-party vote. In 2010, he won the seat with 52.19%.

Davis was also a medical specialist before his election, working as the Director of Medicine at the Prince Charles Hospital.\nSituated in the inner-north of Brisbane, Stafford is an electorate once-abolished and recreated in 2001. It was held by the ALP between 2001 and 2012. There was a 14.4% swing against the ALP in 2012.\nThe LNP\u2019s primary vote has fallen 16.9% to 33.4%, whilst the ALP\u2019s primary has risen 17.2% to 50.7%.\nThe ALP\u2019s two-party-preferred vote is 61.5%, a swing of 18.6%.

        "raw_content": "Former Facebook exec just made a huge admission about the internet and social media\nHow to avoid bad gift-giving this year\nA former Facebook exec who helped build the popular social media network into the giant it is today is coming out and offering contrition for his work there, as well as making a major admission about social media in general: It\u2019s tearing us apart.\n\u201cI think we have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works,\u201d Chamath Palihapitiya, who was once Facebook\u2019s vice president for user growth, told an audience at Stanford. He also admitted that he and his fellow executives knew in the back of their minds the could be creating a problem. But he didn\u2019t stop there.\n\u201cThe short-term, dopamine-driven feedback loops we\u2019ve created are destroying how society works,\u201d he added.\n\u201cNo civil discourse, no cooperation; misinformation, mistruth. And it\u2019s not an American problem \u2014 this is not about Russians ads. This is a global problem.\u201d\nRead: Parents, you need to know what the \u2018blue whale challenge\u2019 is right now\nHe recommended people take a \u201chard break\u201d from social media, and said he doesn\u2019t let his children use Facebook.\nFormer Facebook exec Chamath Palihapitiya explains why he thinks social media is tearing apart society. (Source: YouTube screen shot)\nAs The Verge reports, he\u2019s not the only one speaking out:\nPalihapitiya\u2019s remarks follow similar statements of contrition from others who helped build Facebook into the powerful corporation it is today. In November, early investor Sean Parker said he has become a \u201cconscientious objector\u201d to social media, and that Facebook and others had succeeded by \u201cexploiting a vulnerability in human psychology.\u201d A former product manager at the company, Antonio Garcia-Martinez, has said Facebook lies about its ability to influence individuals based on the data it collects on them, and wrote a book, Chaos Monkeys, about his work at the firm.\nThese former employees have all spoken out at a time when worry about Facebook\u2019s power is reaching fever pitch. In the past year, concerns about the company\u2019s role in the US election and its capacity to amplify fake news have grown, while other reports have focused on how the social media site has been implicated in atrocities like the \u201cethnic cleansing\u201d of Myanmar\u2019s Rohingya ethnic group.\nWhile Palihapitiya\u2019s words are good reminders, it\u2019s also important to keep in mind that social media is, in fact, a tool: it\u2019s only as good or bad as the people who use it. We need to continue to act like people who have been changed from the inside on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. And we have to teach our children to do the same, while also putting reasonable safeguards in place to protect them.\nTo that end, stay tuned. Kirk and the team have something exciting coming out in 2018 to help with just that.\nNow read: Your teens and social media: Why the problem is more than just a phone",

        "raw_content": "Militant Environmentalists Call for Executions and \u2018Decisive Ecological Warfare\u2019\n\u201cDo we need a militant movement to save the planet (and ourselves)?\u201d That was the question posed in recent article on the left-wing site Alternet when it interviewed a group of radical environmentalists who are allegedly endorsing \u201cDecisive Ecological Warfare.\u201d And in order to realize their goal of ridding the planet of industrial civilization \u2014 even modern agriculture \u2014 the group intends to employ tactics \u201cof both militaries and insurgents the world over.\u201d\nOne of the activists, Derrick Jensen, allegedly even believes those who destroy the environment should be summarily executed: \u201cIf it were up to me, all the people associated with the Gulf oil spill, which is murdering the Gulf, would be executed. That would be part of the function of a state,\u201d said Jensen.\nIn addition to Jensen, the two other environmentalists interviewed in the article \u2013 Lierre Keith, and Aric McBay \u2014 have spearheaded a fringe movement called the \u201cDeep Green Resistance\u201d (with a book of the same name) that calls for \u201cdirect attacks on infrastructure\u201d and an annihilation of civilization as we know it.\nAccording to the far-left triumvirate, humanity must devolve into living primitive, \u201cindigenous\u201d lifestyles. To this end, Keith targeted a litany of ills that must be stopped, declaring: \u201cWe need a culture that is self-consciously oppositional to things like corporate power, capitalism, industrialization and ultimately civilization, because that is the arrangement of power on this planet right now.\u201d\nBut how does the group intend to implement such extreme goals? That is where the Decisive Ecological Warfare part comes in.\nAccording to DGR\u2019s website, their type of warfare has four phases that will allegedly lead up to the \u201cfall of industrial civilization.\u201d The first phase, according to the organization\u2019s charter, is \u201cNetworking & Mobilization\u201c followed by \u201dSabotage & Asymmetric Action.\u201d The site lays out the group\u2019s strategy:\nStrategy A: Engage in direct militant actions against industrial infrastructure, especially energy infrastructure.\nStrategy B: Aid and participate in ongoing social and ecological justice struggles; promote equality and undermine exploitation by those in power.\nStrategy C: Defend the land and prevent the expansion of industrial logging, mining, construction, and so on, such that more intact land and species will remain when civilization does collapse.\nStrategy D: Build and mobilize resistance organizations that will support the above activities, including decentralized training, recruitment, logistical support, and so on.\nStrategy E: Rebuild a sustainable subsistence base for human societies (including perennial polycultures for food) and localized democratic communities that uphold human rights.\nThe stated goal of DGR is to \u201cdeprive the rich of their ability to steal from the poor and the powerful of their ability to destroy the planet. This will require defending and rebuilding just and sustainable human communities nestled inside repaired and restored landbases. This is a vast undertaking but it needs to be said: it can be done. Industrial civilization can be stopped.\u201d\nAll infrastructure, even modern agriculture did not escape the threesome\u2019s wrath as they apparently consider \u201csustainable agriculture\u201d an \u201coxymoron.\u201d\nThe original Alternet interview with DGR leaders went on to reveal what McBay believes should replace industrial civilization if the movement were successful in carrying out its goals: \u201cIf we are talking about a post-industrial society, then I think we have to draw on the examples of traditional, indigenous societies.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s more, the group barely tries to conceal its disdain for the average Americans who probably find DGR\u2019s brand of extremism distinctly repugnant. Keith stated, \u201cI\u2019m not speaking to mainstream America. I don\u2019t know how to talk to those people, and there is no point in me trying.\u201d And Jensen only mirrored the sentiment, saying, \u201cI don\u2019t understand why it is even controversial to talk about dismantling industrial civilization when it has shown itself for 6,000 years to be destroying the planet and to be systemically committing genocide.\u201d\nBut don\u2019t worry. As Alternet points out, Keith does make a distinction about violence in the book.\n\u201cI would urge the following distinctions,\u201d writes Keith, \u201cthe violence of hierarchy vs. the violence of self-defense, violence against actual people vs. violence against property, and the violence as self-actualization vs. the violence of political resistance.\u201d\n\u201cJust because they mention violence doesn\u2018t mean it\u2019s the best policy,\u201d Alternet says in its article as a way of trying to salvage readers who might be non-violent. But it is an option.",

Despite significant achievements and progress, as a whole they continue to earn less than their male counterparts, are less visible and influential in the political arena, do not share equal responsibilities or privileges in the military, have unequal rights and freedoms in family life and law, and are less influential in shaping the nation's self image and cultural orientation.\nBringing together classic essays by leading scholars of Israeli culture, this reader exposes the hidden causes of ongoing discrimination and links the restrictions that Israeli women experience to deeply entrenched structures, including colonial legacies, religious traditions, capitalism, nationalism, and ongoing political conflict. In contrast, the essays also explore how women act creatively to affect social change and shape public discourse in less ostensible ways.\nProviding balanced perspectives from the social sciences and the humanities, this comprehensive reader reflects both an emerging consensus and exciting diversity in the field. It is the definitive text for courses in Israeli women's studies.\n\u2022 Warriors, Witches, Whores: Women in Israeli Cinema (Contemporary Approaches to Film and Media Series)",

When we first meet him, he casually steals a smart red convertible sportscar from an airport, pulls up next to a limo, and blows away the occupants before casually returning the car to the exact same parking spot at the airport and leaving town to lie low in Kobe. Goro expects to be back in Tokyo in six months, but a year later, he\u2019s still stuck cooling his heels in Kobe, waiting for the heat to die down. He spends most of the day sitting in a rocking chair on the docks, waiting for the foreign ships to dock so his crew of touts can pick up the gaijin men and spirit them away to associated nightclubs. Goro himself seems neither disappointed or enthused by his small-time pursuits. His only regret is that he can\u2019t yet go back to his beloved Tokyo. It\u2019s a sentiment he shares with Pepe Le Moko, stuck in The Casbah and forever dreaming of returning to Paris, the title character from the movie that originally served as the inspiration for this film\u2019s inspiration, Red Quay.\nThis entry was posted on January 7, 2010, 9:06 pm and is filed under New Reviews.

        "title": "On health and healing | Baring the Aegis",
        "raw_content": "Recently, I received a message about health and healing. The questions centered on healing from physical injury, support during surgery, and common practices in ancient Hellas in these types of situations both of the injured and their families. Seeing as most of us will most likely wat to request the healing aid of the Gods at one point in our lives, I though I would make a blog post out of it.\nIn ancient Hellas, people got sick just like we get sick now. With the poorer hygiene conditions and often heavy physical labor that was undertaken, epidemics one one illness or another must have been quite common, and accidents were prone to happen. As such, there were quite a number of deities who were especially prone to help humanity recover from diseases and injuries.\nWhen we discuss health and healing, we must first look at the worship of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s. Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s was, and is, a much beloved Theos. He started out being honored as a hero--the son of Apollon and Koronis--but became a God in His own right because of his healing skill. It seems Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s was such a fine healer, He could even bring the dead back to life, even though He is no longer permitted to do that. Apollon presides over the healing proccess as well--in general with the Hellenic deities, younger generations preside over the building blocks of the previous generation, so while Apollon has 'healing' in His portfolio, much of the actual healing is done by his younger son, and specific subsets of healing are destributed amongst Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s' daughters.\nWorship places of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s were called 'asklepieia' (\u1f08\u03c3\u03ba\u03bb\u03b7\u03c0\u03af\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1). An asklepieion (\u1f08\u03c3\u03ba\u03bb\u03b7\u03c0\u03b9\u03b5\u1fd6\u03bf\u03bd) served as a temple, a hospital, and as a training-institute of the healing arts. In ancient Hellas, the sick would come to an asklepieion and offer a sacrifice to Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s--amongst the recorded sacrifices are black goats or sheep, gold, silver, or marble sculptures of the body part that required healing, and coins--in hopes of healing. They would then settle into the abaton (\u03ac\u03b2\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bd) or enkoimeterion (\u03b5\u03b3\u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bc\u03b7\u03c4\u03ae\u03c1\u03b9\u03bfn), a restricted sleeping hall, which was occupied by the sick alone, or sometimes by a group of them, as well as a good few snakes, which are considered sacred animals of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s.\nThe sick would spend the night at the abaton, and would receive counsel from Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s Himself in his or her dreams, during an induced sleep known as 'incubation', or 'enkoimesis' (\u03b5\u03bd\u03ba\u03bf\u03af\u03bc\u03b7\u03c3\u03b9\u03c2), where the patient drifts between waking and sleeping, and is said to be susceptible to messages of the Gods. If the God did not visit the patient the first night, incubation was continued on following nights. Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s would either heal the supplicant directly in the dream state, or tell him what to do to cure his illness or affliction. The priests listened to the dream, as described by the patient, and would divine the meaning of the Theos from it. As such, all healers were also master dream interpreters who would divine the treatment to be followed from the patient's account of the dream. Treatment often consisted of supplication, fasting, a special diet, meditation or prayer. There are accounts of surgeries having taken place at the asklepieia as well.\nAskl\u0113pi\u00f3s has five daughters, and anyone with an illness or injury would do well to keep Them in mind, because worshipping Them and adhering to Their lessons will heal your injuries a lot quicker than they would without it. Along with Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s, the most important Gods to guard the health of mankind are: Hygeia, Iaso, Akeso, Aigl\u00ea, and Panakeia.\nHygeia is the Theia of health, cleanliness, and sanitation, and a companion of the Goddess Aphrodite. She is perhaps the best known of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s' daughters, and has been so since ancient times. She is mentioned alongside her father, grandfather, and sister Panakeia in the original Hippocratic oath. the ancient Hellenes regarded Her as one of the most revered of all Theoi, because without her blessings (good health), nothing could be accomplished in life, and life itself would cease. In fact, She has her own Orphic hymn [67], and in it, She is solely responsible for averting all disease. She is depicted with a snake, usually curled around Her arm.\nIas\u00f4 is the Theia of cures, remedies and modes of healing. In the temple of Amphiaraus at Oropus a part of the altar was dedicated to Her, along with many of Her sisters and other Theoi petitioned for healing. Recovery is Her domain, and as such, She is one of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s' most valued attendants. She is depicted with a mirror.\nAkeso is the Theia who oversees the healing of wounds and the curing of illness. She does not bring the cure itself, but oversees the process of healing. Not much is known about Her, but She is a faithful attendant of Her father.\nAigl\u00ea is the Theia of the beauty, splendor, glory, magnificence, and adornment that comes with good health. She represents radiance, and Her blessings are very much sought after, because they allow a person to live up to their full potential.\nPanakeia is the Theia of cures and panaceas--healing aids in the form of medicines, salves and other curatives. After Hygeia, She is perhaps the best known of Her sisters. Her gifts of medicine are of great value, and she is mentioned in the original Hippocratic oath along with Apollon, Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s, and Hygeia.\nOne of the most fascinating aspects about these healing cults is the offerings they got, either in thanks, or in prayer. As said before, a special type of votives were pinakes (\u03c0\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03ba\u03b5\u03c2, singular: \u03c0\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03be). Most pinakes were gifted to the temple as votive offerings, and depicted scenes of libations, mythological scenes, scenes from daily life (like farming or household duties). Another type of scene was the depiction of body parts. These pinakes were gifted as a call for healing aid, and were most likely gifted before the actual healing took place, something unique to pinakes. Lokris (\u039b\u03bf\u03ba\u03c1\u03af\u03c2), a region in ancient Hellas, is known for a remarkable archeological find of thousands of pinakes, most of them from sanctuaries of Persephone and Aphrodite, indicating They were approached for some form of healing as well. Large numbers of clay replicas of hands and feet, arms and legs, breasts and genitals, eyes and ears, and heads have been found in the ruins of temples of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s, as depicted above.\nTo step away from the Gods for a moment, Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s of Kos (\u1f39\u03c0\u03c0\u03bf\u03ba\u03c1\u03ac\u03c4\u03b7\u03c2) is seen by many as the founding father of medicine, and in his lifetime, he set about to advancing the systematic study of clinical medicine, summing up the medical knowledge of previous schools, and prescribing practices for physicians through the Hippocratic Corpus and other works (although he Corpus itself was most likely not written by him, but assembled in and slightly after his time). Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s separated the discipline of medicine from religion, believing and arguing that disease was not a punishment inflicted by the Theoi but rather the product of environmental factors, diet, and living habits. Much of his theories came from his very basic understanding of the human body: in Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s' time, it was forbidden to cut into a corpse, even for research.\nTwo of Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s' most famous ideas about illness were humoralism and the concept of crisis. Humoralism is a now discredited theory of the makeup and workings of the human body, positing that an excess or deficiency of any of four distinct bodily fluids in a person directly influences their temperament and health. The four humors of Hippocratic medicine are black bile (melan chole), yellow bile (chole), phlegm (phlegma), and blood (haima). A crisis is a point in the progression of disease at which either the illness would begin to triumph and the patient would most likely die, or the opposite would occur and natural processes would make the patient recover. A crisis was said to occur on critical days, which were set days from the point of contraction. Relapses would come with a crisis day of their own, and could be predicted when a crisis did not fall on the predicted crisis day.\nHippokr\u00e1t\u0113s understood healing as the restoration of balance within the body. That is also the foundation of humoralism: restoring balance to the four humors, so the patient is healed. Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s realized that everything in the human body was connected, that an imbalance could--and would--affect the whole of the body. His theories may have been discredited, but the basic foundation of balance still hold true to this day. Inside of all of us is a voice that talks to us when we are sick. Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s named it the 'inner physician'. It is a voice we often ignore: usually it tells us to rest, to drink plenty of water, to get either warm or cold; the inner physician manifests in desires of the body when ill. If we listen to these desires, we are healed swiftly from the more common illnesses. A good physician listens to the patient's inner physician and helps it in its work. This is at the core of humoralism as well: a diagnosis was made by descriptions given by the patient and a basic understanding of humors, and the physician attempted to provide what the inner body desired.\nIt's impossible to prevent illness. Unlike Hippokr\u00e1t\u0113s, we know that viruses and bacteria get transferred from person to person, and once an illness is introduced to you living environment or your circle of close contacts, the chances of getting in increase greatly. When you become ill, the body's inner physician can help you heal quickly and with the least amount of discomfort. Trusting in your inner physician is something we are rarely trained to do by our parents, but it can prevent much suffering over the years. Especially when we are healing from an injury or recovering from surgery, listening to our inner physician is critical.\nFor anyone who has fallen ill, or who is facing a medical situation they could use the aid of the Gods with, I would suggest holding a ritual with sacrifices to the Gods in advance where possible, or during the recovery period. Do not forget to hold another ceremony of thanks giving once you are healed! Needless to say, the Gods I would recommend sacrificing to are the ones listed here, along with Hestia as guardian of the household, and Zeus as King of the Gods. Make use of the Homeric or Orphic hymns; Apollon (I, II, III), Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s (I, II), Zeus (I), Hestia (I), and the daughters of Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s (I), and make use of pinakes if you can. You can make them out of clay or wood, but wax is another good option, and it allows you to burn it in the sacrificial fire. The latter is my preferred method. Add these Gods to you daily prayers, and libate to them with your request for healing and to watch over you during procedures. In the Hellenic religion, building kharis is everything. Because it bears repeating: do not forget to listen to your inner physician; it can help you avoid a lot of pain and suffering.\nAigl\u00ea Akeso ancient Hellenic culture Apollon Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s daily practice Hellenismos 101 Homeric Hymns Hygeia hymns Ias\u00f4 kharis Mythology 101 Orphic Hymns Panakeia requested post\nLabels: Aigl\u00ea, Akeso, ancient Hellenic culture, Apollon, Askl\u0113pi\u00f3s, daily practice, Hellenismos 101, Homeric Hymns, Hygeia, hymns, Ias\u00f4, kharis, Mythology 101, Orphic Hymns, Panakeia, requested post\nSwift Rabbit said...\nThis was a very informative post.

        "title": "The final piece of the puzzle: how will the future grid work? | Recharge",
        "raw_content": "IN DEPTH | Almost all the technology needed for the global energy transition already exists, but one important element is still missing \u2014 how the highly complex grid of the future will operate, writes Leigh Collins\nFor the world to decarbonise and meet its climate goals, we will need a huge amount of renewable energy. But the variability of wind and solar means that a range of new solutions will have to be put in place to meet demand when the wind isn\u2019t blowing and the sun isn\u2019t shining \u2014 including battery and thermal storage, demand response, electric vehicle (EV) smart charging, increased interconnection, virtual power plants and even internet of things (IoT) technology such as smart fridges.\nThe energy transition is unstoppable, says International Renewable Energy Agency technology and innovation head Dolf Gielen, but \u201cif we don\u2019t manage that process, we\u2019re going to run into problems\u201d.\nThe complexity of this system will be staggering. Hundreds of thousands of buildings, batteries, EVs, heat pumps and smart appliances will be used to help balance a grid powered by hundreds of thousands of distributed rooftop PV systems and wind turbines/solar farms/hydro plants hundreds of miles apart. And it is a system that is currently operated by multiple entities of vastly different sizes \u2014 transmission system operators (TSOs), distribution system operators (DSOs), utilities, independent power producers and, increasingly, new market players such as virtual power plant aggregators, demand-response providers, and EV charging networks.\nAll of these resources will have to work together seamlessly in a single highly efficient, omnidirectional power system. And herein lies the problem. No-one is quite sure how such a power system will function.\nWhat TSOs and DSOs do know is that there are five related issues that will need to be resolved to enable such a system: 1) the physical changes needed to make grids smarter; 2) the market design needed to ensure that flexibility services are appropriately priced; 3) the software and data management systems required; 4) who will be responsible for what; and 5) overcoming regulatory hurdles.\nGenerally speaking, national grids consist of high-voltage long-distance transmission networks operated by TSOs, and medium- and low-voltage local networks operated by DSOs. Ownership is a mixture of public and private, depending on the country and region. This arrangement was set up over the past century as a unidirectional system \u2014 electricity would flow from large power plants, along the transmission network, to the local distribution grids.\nBut the electricity network required by the energy transition will be a highly complex two-way system that needs to function as one, with a growing amount of power supply and storage \u2014 as well as demand response \u2014 on the distribution grid.\nIn short, we need to move from dumb two-part grids to a single overarching highly flexible smart system.\nThis will require physical changes to the transmission and distribution grids, with digital sensors placed throughout the system to provide real-time information on the state of the power grid at every location \u2014 from the largest wind farm to local transformers and individual homes.\n\u201cOn the distribution side, I think one of the key topics is to get more transparency on the status of the distribution system at all times, at all critical points,\u201d explains Ralf Christian, chief executive of Siemens\u2019 energy management division. \u201cSo it means we need to put more sensors into the distribution grid to have that transparency of what\u2019s happening. Which is not the case in most distribution grids today.\n\u201cA city, typically, is fed from the high-voltage grid, from a transmission operator, so we have a few high-voltage substations. Those are today, in most cases, smart. But then from there you move to distribution network substations and you already have hundreds of them in each city, supplying every city district. Those are not always smart today. And then from there you basically connect to the small transformer stations, where you have several thousand in a city. But those are, in most cases today, not \u2018intelligent\u2019.\u201d\nThe more you invest in digital devices and sensors, the more information and value you will have, he adds, before explaining that \u201cyou could run a system\u201d where the sensors (ie, smart meters) are largely placed near consumers.\n\u201cBecause you know your grid topology, you know your consumers, and if you collect grid data close the points of consumption, then you can aggregate the information and create the right modelling for your power grid. Now, if you don\u2019t have the opportunity, and in some regions it is the case that you can\u2019t place smart meters close to most consumers, then you would go one step back and put additional technology into your low/medium-voltage transformer stations. Then at least you have an aggregated view at the transformer station level.\u201d\nThe cost of the roll-out of sensors will have to be considered, says Laurent Schmitt, secretary-general of the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity (Entso-E).\n\u201cI think we should be careful because the grid is very large. So this is all about where there is a positive cost benefit,\u201d he explains.\nSensors should be placed, at the very least, at utility-scale renewables projects and in heavily congested transmission corridors \u201c to really optimise usage of the last megawatt of the lines\u201d, he adds, explaining that sensors can help optimise power lines through \u201cdynamic line rating\u201d \u2014 whereby transmission lines can handle more electricity when temperatures are cooler.\nCommunication between sensors and grid control centres could be carried out in a variety of ways, says Schmitt \u2014 fibre-optic cables, 4G mobile telephony or LoRa, a recently developed long-range, low-power-consumption, low-bandwidth wireless data communication system that uses sub-gigahertz radio frequency bands.\nAnd then there has to be real-time communication between the TSO and DSO. For instance, if there isn\u2019t enough wind or solar power available, the TSO can send a signal to the DSO to reduce demand.\nThe technology required for this is \u201cthere to buy, [but] it\u2019s not yet in place comprehensively\u201d, says Christian.\n\u201cTechnology companies like us and others have developed all the technologies over the last ten years,\u201d he says, pointing to electronics controls, communication devices, data links and data platforms.\n\u201cIt\u2019s all there. So the question is, when does it get largely implemented?\u201d\nMarket changes/price signals\nIn the future power grid, there will be millions, or perhaps billions, of smart grid-connected devices capable of providing balancing and congestion management services \u2014 everything from EVs to home batteries, heating and cooling equipment, and smart IoT home appliances that will turn on or off according to the availability of renewable energy.\nBut they will only be used for grid services if owners receive adequate payment for their use. The market therefore needs to provide a price signal at every level of the power system, and electricity tariffs must become more flexible to reflect the changing value of electricity at different times and in different places.\nFor instance, consumers will need to know when to consume energy from their solar panels, when to send it to the grid, when to put it into storage, when to charge their EV, when to reduce consumption to help balance the grid, and when to buy power from the grid. The home energy management system controlling this \u201cnanogrid\u201d will need price signals to determine how to act.\nAnd on a much larger scale, there will be TSOs interacting with each other at the international or regional level, TSOs interacting with DSOs, and DSOs interfacing with microgrids and individual homes.\n\u201cThe common denominator through all these systems is the price signal,\u201d says Schmitt. \u201cThe price signal should be consistently calculated from the top, representing the scarcity of generation on the wholesale [market] and the scarcity of transmission capacity (ie, congestion), down to the lowest level where we need to represent congestion on the distribution grid and potentially constraint on each transformer.\u201d\nThis will require intra-day wholesale markets (where energy is bought and sold at one-hour, 15-minute or perhaps, one day, five-minute intervals) and balancing markets (which enables real-time balancing of supply and demand) that allow exchanges of small amounts of energy and the contribution of demand response.\nIn the EU, proposals to shape such a market design are due to come into force on 1 January 2020 if, as expected, the European Commission\u2019s Clean Energy Package is approved by member states in the next six months.\nObviously, this smarter system will require a vast amount of data to be gathered and intelligently processed.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a digital meter that will make the difference. It is the intelligence behind that,\u201d says Chris Peeters, chief executive of Elia Group, which operates the Elia transmission system in Belgium and 50Hertz in eastern Germany.\n'Renewables build-out will require new attitude towards power lines'\n\u201cThe fundamental question,\u201d adds Schmitt, \u201cis \u2018what is the data framework that you need to put in place so that you provide signals to all the systems so that they can transact and interact\u2019?\u201d\nData will clearly play a fundamental role in the energy transition, yet there are several important questions on this subject that need to be answered: Who will manage the data? How will the data be managed? How will it be shared? Will it be stored on a single data network or multiple data platforms? Who will get access to that data? Who will own the data?\n\u201cYou have multiple parties fighting to own the data and we think that this is a completely ridiculous battle,\u201d Peeters tells Recharge. \u201cYou as a consumer own the data.\u201d\nThe consumer will therefore have to give permission to any entity that wants to use their energy data, he points out, before adding: \u201cWho gets the data? Everybody who needs it, by a real-time, secure, transparent layer.\u201d\nThis \u201cgiant grid communication layer\u201d will provide data to TSOs, DSOs, energy suppliers and service providers \u201cso that we are sure that everybody can do their job in a decent way\u201d, says Peeters. \u201cBuilding this large network is really a critical asset to make that change in the market.\u201d\nSchmitt, however, is not convinced that there should be a single data network responsible for a national or, perhaps, an international grid system.\n'European renewables need a grid fit for the energy transition'\n\u201cI don\u2019t believe in a single data hub to be honest,\u201d he tells Recharge. \u201cI believe in sets of data-exchange platforms interfacing with each other.\n\u201cIt\u2019s what we call the power system of systems. What that means is that you don\u2019t have a single system which controls everything. You have a set of systems interacting with each other.\n\u201cSo the issue is not \u2018where do you store the data?\u2019, but the issue is, \u2018what are the relevant APIs [application programming interfaces] to exchange information between these players\u2019? Interoperability is key.\u201d\nSander van Ginkel, who leads Accenture Strategy\u2019s European utilities practice, believes it would make sense for two or three data platforms to be rolled out at first in different regulatory areas.\n\u201cYou need a certain level of competition to get the right platform,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd then, at a certain point in time \u2014 not too early, not too late \u2014 it becomes necessary to say, \u2018now we\u2019re going to standardise this and award it to one platform\u2019.\u201d In the event of this \u201cwinner-takes-all\u201d approach, heavy regulation would be required, he adds.\nBut the idea of a single entity controlling an entire electricity network is anathema to blockchain advocates such as Ewald Hesse, chairman of the Energy Web Foundation.\n\u201cIf there will be a party like that, this body would probably be the best energy trader in the world because you\u2019re the best energy trader if you know what\u2019s happening everywhere,\u201d he tells Recharge.\nHis organisation is building a decentralised blockchain-based operating system for the electricity sector, the Energy Web, which would be free and \u201ccompletely open\u201d for anyone to use. This would eliminate the need for a single entity to manage the super-complex energy network as transactions would be processed by computers distributed around the world.\nThe Energy Web is in the testing phase until the end of 2019, with Hesse explaining that he expects the network, when it is scaled up, to be able to process more than a million transactions per second. It would also be able to manage exchanges of energy as small as a single watt-hour, allowing even laptop computers to potentially provide demand-response services.\nOpinions vary greatly in the industry as to whether a blockchain solution would be the best option.\nVan Ginkel doubts whether a blockchain would be able to cope with the sheer volume of transactions; Roberto Zangrandi, secretary-general of the European Distribution System Operators\u2019 Association for Smart Grids (Edso), says that the use of blockchain \u201cwill be inevitable\u201d; and Christian says that blockchain \u201cwould clearly be one option\u201d.\n\u201cI think there are big expectations that blockchain will provide more efficiency in the end. I think it is to be seen if this promise holds true in the coming years,\u201d he says.\nPublic opposition to power lines threatens the energy transition\nWho will manage what?\nAt the moment, TSOs manage transmission systems and DSOs manage distribution systems. But as transmission and distribution systems become increasingly inter-reliant and operate more and more as a single power system, who will manage what?\nTSOs advocate that they should control the system as they are primarily responsible for the balance between generation and consumption. Some DSOs argue that they will have a more complex bidirectional system to manage, so they should take part in this control, at least for managing the congestion in their grids.\nIn October, the five European electricity sector associations \u2014 Entso-E, Edso, Eurelectric, Geode and Cedec \u2014 signed a memorandum of understanding \u201cto achieve a common vision on active system management in order to integrate all distributed resources and new service providers in the electricity system and market, to ensure system security and to create value for the customer\u201d.\n\u201cDSOs and TSOs increasingly face similar challenges and share common interests: integration of large quantities of renewable energy sources, facilitation of flexibility services (including demand-side response), roll-out of new communication equipment and software, increasing need for data, and the renewal of ageing grids,\u201d says the memorandum.\nYet the five associations are yet to formally agree on a way forward and common priorities.\n\u201cIt\u2019s all about what kind of services need to be managed still by the TSO on its own, what has to be managed by the DSO on its own and what needs to be managed together,\u201d explains Schmitt. \u201cSo you need to drill down to the various sets of services related to system operation and be able to define what goes where.\n\u201cWe currently have an existing paper that is getting prepared, which will be released, I think, in the first quarter of 2019. The topic of this paper is called \u2018active system management\u2019, which tries to conceptualise the role of the DSOs and TSOs and to define overarching principles of how this coordination needs to be organised. The one-integrated-system approach, where the system is seen as a whole, rather than as subsystems, is the starting point for this work.\u201d\nIn the end, there may not be a single model for TSO-DSO co-operation in Europe, he adds, explaining that \u201cwe try to adapt to various examples and models of collaboration depending on the country\u201d.\n\u201cSo in the Nordics, TSOs develop the data hubs and do have a mandate from their regulator to further expand into flexibility markets. Of course, creating the right level of interface with the DSOs and so on,\u201d Schmitt says.\n'Renewables sector needs to support transmission projects'\n\u201cIf I\u2019m looking at another market, such as in The Netherlands, with [TSO] TenneT and three DSOs, my understanding is that they are trying to look at using certain flexibility services together... so that together they can source and buy flexibility in a co-ordinated way that is optimal for the system.\u201d\nThere are also some European Commission-funded research and innovation projects, such as Smartnet, which showcases potential TSO-DSO co-ordination schemes in Italy, Denmark and Spain; and two that are due to start in January 2019, Interrface and Coordinet, which will further evolve TSO-DSO co-operation and co-ordination for pooling and allocating distributed flexibility\nZangrandi explains that discussions include whether TSOs and/or DSOs should participate in flexibility markets.\n\u201cIt will take quite a bit [of work] to align the approaches on flexibility management from country to country, provided that the national regulatory authorities will allow, at a certain point, two regulated subjects, DSOs and TSOs to put \u2014 along with independent market operators \u2014 their fingers into a market product.\u201d\nPeeters is adamant that TSOs and DSOs should not participate in flexibility markets.\n\u201cWe\u2019re system operators. We should not be directly involved in the management of the flexibility itself. Neither in the management of the energy. We should focus on our core task, which is providing the system on which commercial parties can do their job.\nEurope\u2019s new climate warriors: utility CEOs and the European Commission\n\u201cWe should make an open system, taking into account cybersecurity and access rights, etc, but that actually allows the commercial segment to do what it needs to do and that it does hopefully much better than we ever can do it because we\u2019re a regulated business focused on a technical act.\u201d\nDespite all the technical, market and regulatory changes (see panel, above) required, the industry seems confident that all the problems will be overcome.\n\u201cThe necessity is rising quickly with the emergence of new consumers on the demand side, like electric cars, and newer generation on the supply side, with small solar, medium solar, big solar, same on wind, and the more you get on the grid, the more the necessity is rising,\u201d says Christian. \u201cSo, to a certain extent, I think there\u2019s a certain gravity towards these technologies, so it will happen.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019ll keep this brief. We\u2019re left with an idea: \u201cOur Love Survives.\u201d The purpose of a new Thermals album is to prove that it does, because one day, it won\u2019t. Desperate Ground, their latest refinement and proof, is as good an album as they\u2019ve made, one that\u2019s pretty nearly overcome with its own vitality. If you\u2019ve heard The Thermals before and know how beautiful and perfect that feeling is, then all I need to do is tell you to imagine that feeling happening again in your life, right now. Put another way: \u201cWe are alive / we will fight to the end.\u201d\nAnd that just leaves the words. Desperate Ground continues a style of songwriting that really took hold on 2009\u2019s Now We Can See, with song titles as complete sentences, short and declarative, composed of personal pronouns and verbs whose meanings derive from whether they\u2019re transitive or intransitive. That kind of non-specific but intentional approach lends major weight to every word while also opening up a lot of possibilities, a generosity of interpretation: The Thermals celebrate an idea of rock music as a dialogue between a singer and a placeholder. A lot of the power of 2010\u2019s Personal Life came from the various meanings of such a relationship. The openness of the pronouns allowed it to be, if you wanted, a long-form communication between a punk singer and his audience: The world\u2019s first concept album of gratitude directed toward some entity who never did anything but listen! The album begins with \u201cI\u2019m Gonna Change Your Life,\u201d the usual promise, but by the end, the faceless, speechless listener who the singer has had to conjure as a proof of his powers, who is you, has taught him that the meaning of his work is bound up in this person\u2019s existence: \u201cYou Changed My Life.\u201d\nIt\u2019s possible to read Desperate Ground as another set of rock songs about the primal link that rock songs establish, similarly meta in the pairing of its opening and closing tracks. On \u201cBorn To Kill,\u201d singer Hutch Harris, now humbled, spills blood on the land when his audience commands; our love survives because he\u2019s done his job well. In between, there\u2019s a lot of violence, for which the music is more a capsule, this time, than a metaphor. There\u2019s no need to be too reductive with these lyrics, which are among the most powerful Harris has ever penned, nor to be too simple with the meaning of \u201cI\u201d and \u201cYou\u201d in the song titles. \u201cI\u201d am, among many other things, the poet, singing of \u201cyou,\u201d the looming but never-present lover. And \u201cI\u201d remain always in thrall to the natural world, to the world as it is, with so much of the bullshit cut out or rendered as an abstract that the songs could be old, very old, except that they\u2019re happening now. In some medieval world suffering the howl of the winds, Harris embraces them: \u201cI opened my eyes and the sky did sing!\u201d\nDesperate Ground is so loud, attuned and unplugged, hopefully impossible to miss, but already I\u2019m worried that people will look at its 27-minute length, feel they know what\u2019s going on here, put it in a box and move on to something else. And sure, it\u2019s not immediately a very surprising album. The Thermals discography now divides pretty neatly into two complementary halves, the one containing political songs that end up pretty personal and the one containing personal (pronoun) songs that end up pretty political (if those are different things). Desperate Ground continues and clarifies the strengths of this impressive second half. Allow it some time to be its own object, if only once, and it lives, in the most perfect way humans have discovered.\nMarillion - Sounds That Can't Be Made (Eagle Records)",

The Regulations took effect on October 1, 2013.\nThe Regulations are the much anticipated regulatory implementation of California's Green Chemistry Initiative. DTSC's implementing regulations have gone through several iterations, including an initial draft released on June 23, 2010, a revised draft released on November 16, 2010, an \"informal draft\" released on October 31, 2011, proposed regulations released on July 27, 2012, revised proposed regulations released on January 29, 2013, another revised proposed regulations released on April, 10, 2013, and revisions proposed on August 23, 2013 (the 15-day comment period for these last comments was open until September 9, 2013, despite the issuance of final Regulations). Memoranda providing background information on past iterations are available online. The Regulations and Final Statement of Reasons are available online.\nTags: OAL, DTSC, Green Chemistry\nDTSC Safer Consumer Products Regulations Effective Today\nThe California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC or Department) Safer Consumer Products Regulations (Regulations) take effect today. Memoranda providing background information on the Regulations are available online. The Regulations and Final Statement of Reasons are available online.\nThe most onerous requirements for \"responsible entities\" (i.e., manufacturers, importers, assemblers, and retailers) will not be felt until DTSC identifies the first Priority Products, that is, a consumer product containing a listed Candidate Chemical for which responsible entities must conduct an Alternatives Analysis (AA) to determine how best to limit potential exposures or the level of potential adverse public health and environmental impacts posed by the substance in the Priority Product.\nThere are, however, initial steps that companies can take to understand how these Regulations may affect operations in the near future. DTSC has created a Safer Consumer Products Web Portal where it has posted, and will continue to add, information pertinent to the Regulations. Please see BRAG's full memorandum, for more information.\nAppeals Court Issues Key Decision On California\u2019s Low Carbon Fuel Standard\nOn September 18, 2013, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a December 2011 district court ruling and held that California's Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) does not violate the Dormant Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution on its face. The district court had sided with groups from the oil and gas, ethanol, and trucking industries and found that the LCFS violated the Dormant Commerce Clause because the statute gave higher carbon intensity values to out-of-state, Midwest, ethanol, putting that fuel at a disadvantage in California. At the time of the 2011 decision, the district court had also issued a preliminary injunction preventing the California Air Resources Board (CARB) from enforcing the LCFS.\nIn its decision this week, the appeals court held that the LCFS does not violate the Dormant Commerce Clause on its face, and it remanded to the district court whether the statute violates the clause \"in purpose or in practical effect.\" The appeals court also vacated the preliminary injunction.\nIt has been reported that the ethanol industry is looking at their legal options in light of the appeals court decision.\nTags: Low Carbon Fuel Standard, LCFS, California Air Resources Board\nAppeals Court Denies CARB Request On The LCFS\nOn August 8, 2013, the Fifth District Court of Appeals denied a petition from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for a rehearing of the case in which the court found on July 15, 2013, that CARB had improperly approved California's Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) in violation of administrative procedures (more information is available online). The July 15 decision stands and while CARB may continue to implement the LCFS, it must hold a new 45-day public comment period to receive input on the LCFS regulations, including CARB's calculation of indirect land use from the increased use of biofuels.\nTags: California, biofuels, CARB, LCFS",

The song is taken from their self-titled album, which released in 1987. The song was written by vocalist David Coverdale and guitarist John Sykes during the albums early writing process (which took place in the south of France), but it was long rumoured that the song had originally been written for rock artist Tina Turner. Coverdale confirmed these rumours in the booklet of Whitesnake\u2019s 20th anniversary edition, by saying: \u201cBefore I\u2019d left [for the south of France] a friend at EMI had asked me for any ideas that would work for Tina Turner. So that was where the original idea for \u2018Is This Love\u2019 came from.\u201d\n\u201cIs This Love\u201d became one of the most popular Whitesnake songs. The song reached #87 on VH1\u2019s \u201c100 Greatest Love Songs\u201d-list and #10 on their list of \u201cGreatest Power Ballads\u201d. The single was a hit for Whitesnake, reaching number 9 in the UK Singles Chart and number 2 in the US singles chart, making it their second-biggest US hit after \u201cHere I Go Again\u201d which hit number 1. The single was reissued in 1994 to promote Whitesnake\u2019s Greatest Hits, and featured the song \u201cSweet Lady Luck\u201d (which was previously only available as B-side to \u201cThe Deeper the Love\u201d-single) and \u201cNow You\u2019re Gone.\u201d This version reached number 25 on the UK Singles Chart. Wikipedia\u00ae\nThis mid-tempo rocker shows the sensitive side of Whitesnake\u2019s frontman David Coverdale, who wrote the song with guitarist John Sykes. Missing the typical Whitesnake swagger, this song finds Coverdale waiting by the phone for his girlfriend to call. About a year before this song was released, Survivor issued a single called \u201cIs This Love\u201d that also asked the question, \u201cIs this love that I\u2019m feeling?\u201d That song went to #9 in the US. @Songfacts.\nWhitesnake \u2013 Is This Love Lyrics:\nI should have known better than to let you go alone.\nIt\u2019s times like these I can\u2019t make it on my own.\nWasted days and sleepless nights.\nAnd I can\u2019t wait to see you again.\nI find I spend my time waiting on your call.\nHow can I tell you babe?

        "title": "How do we screen people doctrinally? by Neil Cole | CMA Resources Blog",
        "raw_content": "Filed Under bible, DNA, doctrine, heresy, life transformation, life transformation groups, LTG, neil cole\nExcerpt from a longer article \u201cThe Threat of Heresy in the Organic Church\u201c\nHow do we screen people doctrinally?\nThis raises a question of whether or not we should screen people over doctrines. In our movement it is what we consider the DNA of Christ\u2019s body that is the code that dictates life, health and fertility. The DNA is Divine Truth, Nurturing Relationships and Apostolic Mission. We want to see the DNA evident in every cell of the Body. It is what holds together our movement. That said, Divine Truth is crucial for health and unity in the church and in our own unique movement. So holding firmly to God\u2019s Word is of the utmost importance. Currently (in 2003) our movement consists of church planting that is associated with over 15 denominations (from Reformed to Vineyard) and five parachurch ministries. Now the question is which beliefs are important and which are not as crucial. Is there a point when we exclude fellowship with certain people over doctrine?\nOne of the ways that we keep unity among our diverse movements is to run people through what we call the \u201cbullet test.\u201d We ask, \u201cIf someone held a gun to your head and said, \u2018Renounce this doctrine or I will shoot\u2019, if you say, \u2018pull the trigger\u2019 then it is a bullet doctrine. We must agree on bullet doctrines. We can hold to doctrines that are not bullet doctrines, and even teach them with conviction, but we don\u2019t exclude or attack brothers and sisters over non-bullet doctrines. They are secondary doctrines that are enlightening but not worth dying over and certainly not worth killing over.\nFor us, the bullet doctrines have consistently been the following:\nOne true God in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.\nThe deity and incarnate humanity of Jesus and his redemptive work evident in His death, burial, resurrection, ascension and imminent return.\nSalvation is by grace through faith and not ever the results of our own works.\nThe inspiration and power of God\u2019s written Word in all of its revelation, without error in its original manuscripts.\nAll believers are redeemed to be significant in the cause of God\u2019s kingdom and granted the empowerment necessary to do so.\nOur Doctrinal Learning System for Leaders in the Organic Church Movement\nOf course, this is not meant to be a fixed and static screening process. It is only a beginning to a relationship that will grow over time built on much more than cognitive assent to a set of stated beliefs.\nWe understand that this is also not a fool-proof method of screening out heresy. There were over nine hundred people in 1978 in Guyana who took a \u201cKool-Aid test\u201d over the wrong doctrines and gave their lives for false teaching. History is littered with people who have given their lives for a lie, so this is not considered a mistake-proof method by any means. This is just a starting point for those who have the Spirit of God and listen to His voice and join together over uncompromising truth.\n>>Read the rest of the article The Threat of Heresy in the Organic Church by Neil Cole\nOne Response to \u201cHow do we screen people doctrinally? by Neil Cole\u201d\nI agree with all 5 \u201cbullet\u201d points you have cited as a doctrinal \u201cscreen\u201d test.\nI would begin with point 4, since, \u201cIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God.\u201d So that \u201cThe inspiration and power of God\u2019s written Word in all of its revelation, without error in its original manuscripts.\u201d was in the beginning. In other words, God started with the Word of God to reveal who He is. Hence, we should start with, continue with, stand on, remain in, the Word of God.\nThe Word of God reveals point 1 \u201cOne true God in three distinct, but not separate persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Throughout the entire Word of God, the 3-1 God is revealed from Genesis to Revelation. This Triune God has an eternal will and plan, and Christ is the center of that plan as point 2: Christ having both divinity (deity) and incarnate humanity of Jesus and his redemptive work evident in His death, burial, resurrection, ascension and imminent return to accomplish God\u2019s work and plan. Hence point 3, Salvation is by grace through faith and not ever the results of our own works\u2026Being God\u2019s Full Salvation..beginning in Genesis and ending in Revelation. Followed by point 5 Matt 16:16-18 reveals this Christ in His fulfillment, and reveals the Body of Christ, the church as the redeemed believers, who are the (point 5) All believers are redeemed to be significant in the cause of God\u2019s kingdom and granted the empowerment necessary to do so.\nPosted by Eric McGinness | January 21, 2012, 8:32 pm",

        "raw_content": "Are You Sure You Want to Refer a Friend?\nReferring a friend for a job seems like a win-win situation. You help someone you know and like find work while also helping an employer fill a vacancy on their staff. Plus, you could be eligible for a referral bonus or reap professional rewards down the road. Be warned, however, that there could be consequences for you if the person you refer doesn\u2019t perform as well as promised. Always ask yourself the following questions before making a recommendation:\n\u201cWhat is Your Link to the Employer?\u201d\nIf you happened to come across a random job listing and you think a friend might be well suited, don\u2019t hesitate to let them know about it. You have little-to-no relationship with this employer, meaning that your friend\u2019s performance won\u2019t reflect on you. It\u2019s up to the hiring manager himself to determine if this person is a good fit. If, however, you are closely linked to the employer or currently employed by them, you need to give the referral a lot more thought. Your professional reputation could take a hit if the person you refer doesn\u2019t live up to expectations.\n\u201cHow Close are You to Your Friend?\u201d\nThere are different degrees of friends. Some people are merely acquaintances, while others are your oldest, best, and closest connections. For obvious reasons, you will be willing to do more and stake more on the latter than the former. Keep in mind that by referring a friend you also become a part of the recruitment process. You will likely be fielding questions from both your friend and the hiring manager throughout. It may be worth spending that time to help a close connection, but not worth it to help a distant relative or someone you barely know.\n\u201cDo You Honestly Know Your Friend\u2019s Work Habits?\u201d\nAs a general rule of thumb, don\u2019t presume to know or understand a person\u2019s work habits until you have worked with them directly. Everyone claims to be a smart, capable, hard worker, and no one is willing to admit that they are lazy, irresponsible, or unmotivated. If you haven\u2019t actually seen your friend in action, you can\u2019t accurately vouch for their credentials and character. It\u2019s not inappropriate to ask your friend for a copy of their resume and to do some online research before agreeing to make the referral. Remember that you also have something to lose if this doesn\u2019t work out.\nIt\u2019s never a good idea to rush into decisions that impact you professional life.

Why not? Many recruiters are doing away with using a resume as the sole tool for deciding whether or not to bring someone in for a position. It is a digital world. Having a stack of 100 resumes sitting on your desk is definitely not something that is going to benefit you.\nWhat you need to do is to find ways to learn about these applicants in a more digital format. Everything from Klout scores to Google search results matter. LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, the list goes on and on.\nWhat can you do? To find out more about a potential candidate\u2019s ability to fill your position, consider these tips. Perhaps the resume is too outdated for your needs. It is possible to change your recruiting methods to use more of a method that encourages openness and a fun vibe. Here are some tips.\nConsider contest-driven hiring processes. Use contests and assessments to allow applicants to set themselves apart from others. Rather than focusing on their paper skills, you\u2019ll be able to see their performance. Staffing agencies often offer these.\nConsider a timed business challenge. Many businesses run contests for a set amount of time. They encourage submissions that are fun and creative. You can do the same. Give people a goal, a time frame, and tell them to use creative tools to demonstrate their skills. It is a part of social interviewing.\nBuild a strong brand. You may be using brand awareness to market your product or service. However, you also need to brand yourself as the type of employer worth working with. You want young workers to be able to communicate with you and see you as the type of employer they want to work with not just right now, but for years to come. Today\u2019s young employee would rather work with a company with values that align to their own rather than getting paid more.\nEnsure that innovation is a requirement. Creativity and innovation are critical components to any competing business today. Hire for innovation. This may be done in various ways, such as encouraging business challenges and providing input on design on a new service, or asking them to pitch ideas. By incorporating this into the hiring process, employers can be confident they are hiring for the right things.\nUse competition and interactivity. Gamification in the hiring process could be the move you need to make. These programs are already being used to teach and train applicants in things like critical thinking and teamwork.\nThe use of these methods may seem a bit out of it for some of the old style recruiters. Yet, today\u2019s paper resume just does not provide the information and details necessary to ensure that employees brought into the company will meet the needs of the company.\nTags: gamification and recruitiment technology, job recruiters in westchester, Job Recruiters In Westchester NY, Job Recruiters Westchester, Job Recruiters Westchester NY, New York recruitment practices, recruiting without resumes, Westchester NY temporary assignments\nWhy Your Current Employees Are a Great Source for Your Future Employees\nWhen you need to fill a role at your company, you have two options: Look internally for someone to promote, or look externally for someone to hire. Both of these approaches have advantages, but significant disadvantages as well. Consider that there is a third way \u2013 looking internally to help you find someone externally. Your current employees are one of the best resources you have for recruiting. Here\u2019s why you should make them a part of the process:\nExpedite the Hiring Process. Impressively, as high as two-thirds of the candidates that come from referrals end up getting hired. If you can\u2019t afford to run a protracted recruiting process and need to bring someone into your ranks fast, relying on referrals cuts down the time to hire significantly.\nConnect with a Higher-Quality Candidate. There is a lot of uncertainty in hiring a complete stranger. You have to take a leap of faith that their credentials are real, their character and work ethic are up to par, and that they\u2019re a good fit for your culture. When you make a hire based on a referral, you have actual confirmation that these things are the case.\nCut the Cost of Recruiting. The cost of recruiting can be significant and unpredictable, sometimes prohibitively so. Basing your decision on a referral cuts this cost, allowing you to make a necessary hire without putting a strain on your budget.\nMotivate Your Employees. It\u2019s awfully satisfying to be able to get a friend or acquaintance a job. When that referral also earns the person a bonus, they feel a much stronger link to your company.\nFind Specialized Skills. The biggest problem facing many employers these days is finding talent that has a very narrow sets of skills. Doing that type of recruiting takes a large input on the employer\u2019s part, and frequently produces spotty results. Basing a hiring decision on a referral gives you unique access to highly specialized talent.\nSpeed Up the Onboarding Process. Since the person you end up hiring has been confirmed to be a good fit for your company, your culture, and your position, they\u2019re likely to start making an impact on day one. That spares you the time and expense it would take to train someone without any connection to the way you do things.\nIt should be pretty clear by now that referrals work. If you can\u2019t find the referral you need, however, the good news is that there are other staffing strategies that work, too. Dip into a pool of high-quality talent by contacting the recruiters at The Concorde Group. As a full-service staffing firm in White Plains, we have a number of options to help all companies in the region.\nTags: Employee Referrals, Hiring Tips, Stamford CT Staffing, Tarrytown NY Staffing, Westchester NY Employment Agencies, Westchester NY Recruiters",

        "title": "Should You Buy or Lease a Car?",
        "raw_content": "By Alice Holbrook\nIn the market for a new vehicle? You have a couple of options:\nYou could lease a car \u2014 paying the dealership to use it for a specified period of time.\nOr, you could buy the car.\nWhile some buyers can pay for a car all at once, most choose to finance it by taking out a loan and paying it back in monthly installments (usually with interest).\nIf you\u2019re primarily concerned about cost, buying is usually the smarter choice. But leases make up a growing number of auto sales \u2014 almost 25 percent in the second quarter of last year, according to Forbes. And buyers who sign leases aren\u2019t always getting a bad deal. In fact, sometimes they\u2019re getting a better one.\nSo, should you buy or lease a car? Let\u2019s take a look.\nBuying a car has some obvious advantages. After you\u2019ve paid it off, you can sell the car or continue to use it without making additional payments. On the other hand, you might be saddled with costly repair bills once your warranty expires. And your vehicle\u2019s resale value can be hard to predict.\nGenerally speaking, buying is cheaper if:\nYou tend to use and abuse your car. Leases involve pricey mileage maximums, so the more you drive, the cheaper it is to buy rather than lease. Buying is also cheaper if you tend to be lax about maintenance since excessive wear and tear will cost you at the end of a lease.\nYou need to be flexible. Not sure how long you\u2019ll need a car? Don\u2019t lease. If you can\u2019t find someone to swap your lease, getting out early can be expensive. Buying a cheaper used car is probably your best bet.\nYou don\u2019t mind keeping your car for a while. If you\u2019re going to upgrade your wheels every few years, leasing may be more economical. But, if you\u2019re happy driving a car for a longer while, buying pays off.\nIn short, if you intend to keep the car for a long period of time and can afford the upfront costs, buying will save you money in the long run.\nThere are benefits to leasing a vehicle. Leases often entail lower down and monthly payments (which is good if you\u2019re worried about short-term costs). And if you choose a 3-year term, most of your car\u2019s repairs will be covered by your warranty.\nIt typically costs more to insure leased vehicles, however, since lenders often require you to carry comprehensive and collision coverage, as well as gap coverage.\nStill, you might want to lease if:\nYou don\u2019t drive very much. Most lease agreements limit drivers to 10,000 to 15,000 miles per year. Go over and it\u2019ll cost you when you turn in the car (usually about 15 cents per mile).\nYou like to drive newer cars. Leasing allows you to trade in your car every few years, which means you can upgrade to the latest styles and technology. If you value the latest new-car innovations, go with a lease.\nYou need more cash in your pocket. Whether you can drive the car for free in 5 years may not matter if you can\u2019t afford to put in the money upfront. Leases, on the other hand, can often be flexible. You might, for instance, be able to work out a lower down payment with higher monthly payments or a longer lease period that spreads out the monthly payments.\nJust be sure you\u2019ve thoroughly read your lease contract before you sign. Leases are notorious for hidden costs, so if you don\u2019t understand a particular charge, ask!\nBuy or lease: the bottom line\nIn the end, deciding whether to buy or lease a car depends largely on your lifestyle and habits. Buying a car and driving it as long as possible is usually the cheapest option, but that may not be realistic for you. Do the math based on your actual behavior and make your decision that way. Whichever you choose, you\u2019ll save the most money if you opt for a car that holds its value.\nAnd, of course, if you\u2019re looking to insure that new car of yours, Esurance can help.

        "title": "Trackside Travels: The Ruins of Gary Union Station",
        "raw_content": "Gary Union Station; Gary, Ind.; July 6, 2013\nThe past grandeur of railroading is often reflected in its great passenger stations. Many of these icons have survived into the 21st Century with varying degrees of preservation. Grand Central Terminal in New York is perhaps the most elegant of the survivors. celebrating its 100th anniversary last year; meanwhile, just a few blocks south in Manhattan, Pennsylvania Station was demolished in 1963. Buffalo Central Terminal has been stabilized and its concourse open for public events, despite limited electricity and no plumbing. Michigan Central Station in Detroit is undergoing stabilization, but remains closed to visitors. And then there is Gary Union Station in Gary, Ind.\nThe station is only slightly younger than the town it served; Gary was established by U.S. Steel in 1906 and the station was built in 1910. It is situated between the elevated lines of the former New York Central and Baltimore & Ohio, and is now in the shadow of I-90. While it looks like it is built of stone blocks, the station is actually cast concrete. It was designed by architect M.A. Lang in the Beaux Arts design. The last trains served the station in the 1950s.\nThe station caught my attention when it was named to the inaugural list of the Eight Most At Risk Railroad Landmarks issued by the National Railway Historical Society in 2013. A trip into Indiana last July put me close enough to the station to check it out. While Gary has the reputation of being perhaps a dangerous town, a quick check of satellite maps showed that it was located on the northernmost edge of the city, with what's left of the steel mill on the opposite side of the railroad tracks. There really wouldn't be any reason for traffic -- by auto or on foot -- to be in the area. And that is pretty much what I discovered when I got there; no one was around. The main entrance is covered with a rotting piece of plywood, but walking to the south side of the building revealed an obvious entrance.\nGary Union Station; July 6, 2013\nGary Union Station\nOnce inside, it was easy to see how grand the station must have been in its prime -- and how much the elements have affected the structure in the half century since the last trains stopped here. The walls are solid -- the building isn't going to fall over any time soon. But the roof is another matter. You are always looking up, both to admire what must have been magnificent skylights and to make sure none of the ceiling would be falling on your head. I'm not sure what's holding up the big center beam. The front entrance can be seen in the photo on the right.\nA set of steps in the back leads up to what's left of the second floor. The steps are blocked with debris, but even without the obstructions it would be unwise to venture up -- there isn't much floor left of the second floor.\nApparently some artistic philosopher noted that as time progresses, one's mood gets worse. I guess that's what this graph indicates. This is under the rear area where the second floor is located.\nTurning around, we get this view out into the main concourse.\nOther artwork adorns the walls, although by some standards the graffiti isn't as prevalent as you might see in other places.\nAmong all the debris that lies around -- tires and trash -- one item stands out. There is a chair that occupies the center of the concourse, and Internet searches of photos others have taken here show that the chair has been there for quite awhile. It has become the unofficial icon of the station.\nThere are no plans to restore or stabilize the station. The closest an attempt gas come was back in 2000 when a federal grant was made available to repair the roof, but the city was unable to come up with the matching funds that were required. As I said earlier, the building's walls are strong and should stand forever. But someday the ceiling is going to be occupying the floor more than it already is.\nFor more photos of Gary Union Station click here.\nLabels: gary union station, indiana, new york central, stations",

        "raw_content": "Strasburg Rail Road; Paradise, Pa.; December 4, 2015\nTourist railroads all across the U.S. and Canada are benefitting from the commercialization of Christmas (okay, let's not open all the negatives of that can of worms and focus on the positive) and that means Santa Claus trains or something similar are a huge part of a railroad's bottom line. And for the railroads that rely on steam, that means steam operations at night. And for the railroad photographer, that opens up a lot of photo possibilites (see, I told you we'd get to the positive).\nI had the chance to photograph three steam operations in three adjacent states -- all on one weekend. The Strasburg Rail Road in Pennsylvania operates one \"The Night Before Christmas\" train each Friday evening in December. The Wilmington & Western in Delaware doesn't run night steam powered trains, but its locomotive is necessary to keep the steam-heated coaches on the daytime trains warm, and that means the locomotive is fired up over the weekend. And the Black River & Western runs several \"The North Pole Express\" trains each Saturday and Sunday in December, including one departure each day after dark. Let the photography begin!\nThe Strasburg Rail Road only operates one train a night on one day a week, so that meant I needed to make more than one trip to Lancaster County. On Friday, December 4, I photographed the train (above) as it passed through Cherry Hill (the sign on the station says \"Population 17 More or Less;\" the onboard narration explains that it's more when the train gets there and less when the train leaves, although the popularity of the corn maze Cherry Crest Farm keeps the population pretty high in the fall). This was actually my second choice of where to shoot that night, as I had wanted to do the shelter at the railroad's picnic area at Groff's Grove; alas, winter track work had the area around Groff's all torn up.\nThe next weekend I had a three-railroad strategy all in place. Friday found me back at the Strasburg for the prime shot on the railroad -- the bridge over Pumpkinville Turnpike (actually a dirt farm lane) near Paradise. I checked in with the landowner during the day and got permission to be on his property, and began my set-up at about 6:30. Like the previous week, the power was Strasburg's ex-Norfolk & Western 4-8-0 pulling a monster 11-car train. The engine runs tender-first on the outbound trip, giving me a chance to test my flashes and set-up. On the return to Strasburg, No. 475 put on quite a show climbing the grade out of Paradise. As it crossed the bridge I fired the shot and had the first steam locomotive of the week in the bag.\nStrasburg Rail Road; Paradise, Pa.; December 11, 2015\nWilmington & Western's ex-Mississippi Central 4-4-0 No. 98 was next on the list, scheduled for Saturday night. The locomotive has a mechanical issue that keeps it from moving under its own power, but the railroad needs the steam it produces to charge the steam lines in the coaches for its daytime runs. With No. 98 needed to provide steam on Saturday and Sunday, it would be hot overnight on Saturday, so the railroad scheduled a night photography event. Volunteer Tommy Gears rounded up antique trucks and actors and it created quite the scene. The shoot took place at the W&W's shop in Marshallton.\nWilmington & Western; Marshalltown, Del.; December 12, 2015\nA second view shows the combine loading, a passenger boarding, and the railroad crew chatting.\nWilmington & Western; Marshallton, Del.; December 12, 2015\nWith the wide shots out of the way, we moved in closer for some detailed shots. The locomotive crew looks on as some female workers tend to the 4-4-0. During World War II it was not uncommon to find women working in rail yards while many men were away.\nWith the women decked out in their railroad worker attire, we retreated into the railroad's shop for some more \"Rosie the Riveter\" scenes using an under-restoration 0-6-0 as a backdrop.\nThat brings us to Sunday night. Black River & Western has \"The North Pole Express\" running throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday, but three moves are done after dark. The 5:00 train leaves Flemington for the North Pole (actually, Ringoes where the railroad's shop is located). It then departs the North Pole at 7:00 to head back to Flemington, although the locomotive runs tender-first, making the shot less than desirable. Finally, the empty train deadheads from Flemington back to Ringoes sometime after 7:30. I had done some static night photography with a diesel at the abandoned Hunterdon Concrete plant just outside Ringoes, and set up there for a non-static steam shot on December 13. Black River & Western uses an ex-Great Western 2-8-0 that used to haul sugar beets in Colorado.\nBlack River & Western; Ringoes, N.J.; December 13, 2015\nWhen doing night photography, you really need a \"prop\" of some sort so you don't have just the train peeking out of the darkness. The Black River & Western is not loaded with props -- a couple of nice bridges are either hard to access or blocked by trees -- so you have to improvise. For the 7:30 deadhead move I wound up at Toad Lane, once again just outside Ringoes, where a convenient grassy knoll gave me some elevation for a shot coming across the grade crossing.\nWith only one weekend left before Christmas, I may not get many more opportunities to shoot steam at night this year. But I have enjoyed getting some fun images this year!\nLabels: black river and western, delaware, new jersey, night photography, pennsylvania, strasburg rail road, wilmington and western",

        "raw_content": "Archive for the 'copyright' Category\nAnother approach to deal with online piracy: three strikes and you\u2019re out\ndorcquek - April 14, 2008 @ 10:10 am \u00b7 copyright\nWhile the US music industry is exploring the option of imposing additional charges on broadband users, Europe is now discussing a totally new approach: banning errant users from using the web.\nThis approach still requires ISPs to be copyright cops by monitoring breaches of copyright and disconnecting recalcitrant privates. Of course this proposal has been met with vehement objection because of alleged breach of civil rights. It is interesting to see how the music industry in US is recognizing the immense difficulty of ISPs being copyright cops, while Europe (France is advancing this proposal) is still keen to place the burden of upholding copyright on ISPs.\nWarner is spearheading a plan to collect fees for unlimited access to music\ndorcquek - March 31, 2008 @ 10:42 am \u00b7 copyright, entertainment, media\nWarner Music is seriously thinking of implementing a plan to bundle a monthly fee into consumers\u2019 internet-service bills for unlimited access to music.\nThis article states how the traditional concept of \u201cmusic as a product\u201d is evolving to \u201cmusic as a service\u201d. Warner thinks the best way to adapt to this new model is to build a pool of money and split it up, instead of trying to control the distribution and sharing of sound recordings. Apparently, Apple and Sony are also exploring new business models that will allow users to have unlimited access to their music library at a fee. It\u2019s interesting that Warner has conceded that this collective licensing model is being explored because of \u201closs of control\u201d by the recording industry. Shows how the music industry is now recognizing that it has to adapt to the web difference brought about by the growth of P2P sharing services.\nOf course, critics state that Warner\u2019s plan is essentially a \u201d tax\u201d, and is inequitable (even amounting to extortion) since the fee is imposed regardless of users\u2019 preferences.\nMy personal view: I prefer Apple or Sony\u2019s plans to impose a fee only on those who wish to access their music libraries. Warner\u2019s plan is useful in obtaining a sizeable pool of money and relieving ISPs of the burden of monitoring users. However, there should be some kind of distinction between broadband users who are interested in downloading music, and those who hardly engage in copyright-infringing behavior on the web. I am inclined to agree with the critics that a blanket fee is not equitable, and likely to be met with opposition. It\u2019s as if the recording industry is choosing the easy way out by asking the public to compensate them for their failure to control copyright infringement.\nWill Hulu kill the Net?\ndweinberger - March 18, 2008 @ 9:03 am \u00b7 copyright, culture, entertainment\nThis is an, ahem, provocative article that worries that the entertainment industry\u2019s chosen vehicle for delivering content is going to be given preference over all else.\nSlowtastic not as bad as nontastic?\nkparker - March 17, 2008 @ 2:34 pm \u00b7 control & power, copyright\nInteresting piece up on TechCrunch over the weekend about file sharing / net neutrality in Japan. Full story here. It seems that the four Japanese ISPs have made an agreement with copyright holders to warn users on their first \u201coffense\u201d, temp bans on a second offense, and at some point perma bans. Details are sketchy but more info is over at Torrent Freak.\nSure, having your file sharing uploads slowed isn\u2019t fun (and there certainly are a lot of legal uses of protocols like BitTorrent) but having ISPs in the business of shutting down access for file sharing seems like an even more dangerous precedent on the net than a lack of packet neutrality.\nBrad Sucks\u2019 surprises\ndweinberger - February 15, 2008 @ 10:41 am \u00b7 copyright, entertainment\n[This is what I posted on my personal blog:]\nBrad Sucks came to Harvard this week and gave a performance-conversation and addressed the class I\u2019m co-teaching with John Palfrey (blogged here and here). There were a few surprises.\nWhat was not surprising was that Brad\u2019s totally delightful, frank, and just a good guy.\nFirst, he pronounces his last name (Turcotte) as Tur-COTT, not Tur-COAT. I stand corrected. Also, he likes his name written as \u201cBrad Sucks,\u201d not \u201cBradSucks.\u201d Sorry twice, Brad!\nSecond, especially during the class, I was struck by how different copyright looks to Brad than it looks to, well, lots of others. It\u2019s not just that copyright protection looks to Brad like a limitation on how widely his music spreads and his musical career builds. Rather, it was how foreign copyright looks to him. From what he said, it seems like an imposition of an artificial construct place on top of the work.\nHere\u2019s what I think is happening, although I can\u2019t say that this is what Brad is thinking. To people who think of music as a work, copyright looks like the natural boundary of their work, the ethical edge of their work itself. Others (Brad, maybe?) think of music not so much as a work as a shared experience, as a connection with listeners. For them, listening is co-creation. The work feels more like a performance to them. The concept of copyright doesn\u2019t fit easily over such a view.\nThird, Brad surprised both the class and the attendees at the performance-conversation with his claim that he is a \u201chorrible capitalist\u201d who gives his songs away for intensely practical reasons, not because he\u2019s an anti-copyright activist.\nThanks for coming, Brad. And thanks for being so BradSucksy.",

        "raw_content": "The Centre The Centre of Excellence for Global Systems Science \u2013 CoeGSS \u2013 provides advanced decision-support in the face of global challenges. It brings together the power of high-performance computing and some of the most promising thinking on global systems in order to improve decisions in business, politics and civil society. They may be decisions about large-scale strategic choices like those faced by governments who want to open up new, more sustainable growth paths for the world economy. They may be decisions about very specific marketing strategies like those faced by businesses who want to bundle possible internet services efficiently on global markets. Or they may be decisions about public health, urban planning, infrastructure investment, product development and many other issues.\nThe Centre CoeGSS is a European consortium of supercomputing centres, scientific institutions, businesses and NGOs. It has been formed in 2015 on the basis of several years of previous research on global systems and ICT. CoeGSS is supported by the European Commission and has partners all over Europe. It is working closely with partners in the U.S. and other countries where similar centres may be formed in the future. It\u2019s services shall be available worldwide. These services range from answering questions to performing in-depth studies on specific issues.\nMission Developing evidence and understanding concerning Global Systems and related policies is rapidly becoming a vital challenge for modern societies. It is being tackled by the newly-emerged scientific domain of Global Systems Science (GSS). High Performance Computing is reaching the level of an ultimate tool empowering GSS to address extremely complex societal and scientific problems. By the nature of the problems addressed in typical GSS applications, the relevant datasets are mostly very big, and are expected to grow up tremendously as well as to include highly heterogeneous data sources, e.g. data streams from social media. High Performance Data Analysis (HPDA) is thus the key to the success of GSS in the next decade! A key contribution of the Centre of Excellence for Global Systems Science \u2013 CoeGSS \u2013 will be the development of an HPC-based framework to generate customized synthetic populations for GSS applications. By enriching GSS applications to be fully supported by state-of-the-art HPC technologies, we will be able to provide decision-makers and civil society with detailed analyses, including real-time assessments, of global risks and opportunities. This will enable the HPC industry to supply hard- and software for applications well beyond the issues to which HPC has been dedicated so far.\nMethods CoeGSS will work with an integrative toolbox for global systems analysis. The integration will be centrered on recent methodological advances in the construction and use of synthetic populations. A synthetic population provides a model of a given population, typically of humans, but if the need arises also of plants, animals, cars, buildings and more. The synthetic population is based on individuals that are different from the actual ones, but in such a way that the population as a whole matches the empirical one in the distribution of attributes and relations that matter for the problem at hand. CoeGSS will provide generators for such populations at a global, but also at smaller scales. They will include maps, datasets for empirical populations, algorithms for their dynamics, tools for statistical analysis and visualization instruments. Centrered on the method of synthetic populations, CoeGSS will use a portfolio of methods to take advantage of high-performance computing and big data. Its key strength is the fact that it can implement different methods with an explicit theoretical background, namely the theory of global systems. This approach is formulated on the basis of algorithmic game theory and a state-of-the-art understanding of socio-cultural evolution. To ensure that computer-based methods don\u2019t run with the actual problems to be solved, CoeGSS will embed their use in stakeholder dialogues that provide an on-going feedback from practitioners.",

This is an attempt to capture that knowing.\nWe've grown accustomed to thinking of the universe as a dark place with small pinpoints of light called \"suns\" that fill tiny parts of the darkness. There is a brighter world. A place of light where our universe appears as a tiny speck of darkness. A speck of darkness that cries out, for what reason the Beings of Light cannot imagine, but they want to love the blinders from us so that we can see the brighter world.\nThe darkness we see all around is but a shroud over the brighter world. It covers the light, but it does not itself have any substance. Evil isn't real. Evil is but a veil over the brightness, a covering of the real, a mask over the world of light, a temporary forgetting of our true nature. Yes, evil can kill you, but death simply awakens you to bask in the brighter world until enough naps in this dark universe finally enable you to waken permanently to the real.\nBirth into this dark universe is a temporary forgetting of that reality. Some do it for play. Some do it in an attempt to rescue those who have completely forgotten the light. Most are stuck here, with a latent memory of the light, a desire to believe in it, but blinded by the darkness into thinking that it is real. It is not. Evil isn't real. Darkness isn't real.\nImagine it. Seek it out. Aim your dreams at it. Desire it. Want it. Become it.\nThere is a brighter world. You are living in it right now. Focus on the light and the darkness will fall away. The brighter world is your birthright. The brighter world is the only reality. The brighter world is your home. Find it. Live it.",

        "raw_content": "MILAN, Ohio \u2013 October 06, 2017 \u2013 Students at EHOVE Career Center in Milan, Ohio are gaining a deeper understanding of science than ever before. They are among the first in the state to learn with zSpace, a mixed reality technology that allows students to study STEM subjects using immersive images that they can move and manipulate in applications across a wide range of standards-aligned curriculum.\nzSpace delivers the ultimate learning experience to inspire curiosity and accelerate understanding. The product, zSpace, combines elements of VR and AR, on an all-in-one computer, to create mixed reality computing experiences that are interactive and lifelike. Each features tracking eye wear and a stylus, allowing students to interact with objects and really understand the science behind them. Unlike other virtual reality solutions, such as head-mounted displays, zSpace enables interaction and group collaboration. Best of all, zSpace empowers students to \u201clearn by doing\u201d in an environment where it is easy to undo mistakes, make changes, and not worry about material costs or clean up.\nDave Jenkins, director of operations said, \u201cThis generation is used to using technology, but this 3D experience is something they don\u2019t have. It\u2019s motivating and engaging them like never before.\u201d\nStudies have shown that using the zSpace technology will keep students\u2019 attention during the lesson and throughout the rest of the school day, leading to better productivity, shares Chelsea Moyer, the career center\u2019s technology integration specialist.\nAt EHOVE, 12 zSpace mixed reality stations are set up in a room the school has named the \u201czSpace lab.\u201d Each zSpace station accommodates two to three students. One student lifts, turns or takes apart virtual objects using an interactive stylus. The other students make observations and record data. All three students wear custom 3D glasses to create a communal mixed reality experience. In addition, students can watch the teacher or another student demonstrate their work on a second monitor or smart LED panel visible to the entire class.\nPaula Camella, a cosmetology instructor at EHOVE Career Center, said hands-on technology such as zSpace plays a key role in the level of understanding for her students.\n\u201cWe will be able to use zSpace for anatomy for state board preparation, chemistry, and design when they create their own cosmetology salon with a floor plan. Some of the tools on zSpace is in their curriculum for business,\u201d she said.\nThe best part about zSpace: \u201cIt\u2019s project-based learning,\u201d said Camella.\n\u201cThis is amazing,\u201d said cosmetology student Maci Mayhorn. \u201cThis is one of the best things ever. I wish I could use this everyday.\u201d\nThroughout the zSpace tutorial, students made exclamations of amazement.\n\u201cThis is so fun,\u201d senior Grace Hagelberger said while creating her own pizza using the Let\u2019s Cook application. Students were given time to explore all of the applications available on the zSpace units and Hagleberger found one that sparked a personal interest.\nEvery student at EHOVE rotates through the zSpace lab at some point in an academic or career specific course. Software includes Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards aligned lesson plans in life science, earth science, engineering and physics. Students can learn about everything from circuits to cells.\nzSpace delivers the ultimate learning experience to inspire curiosity and accelerate understanding. Our product, zSpace\u00ae, combines elements of VR and AR, on an all-in-one computer, to create mixed reality computing experiences that are immersive, interactive and lifelike. Among its numerous awards and accolades, zSpace was named \u201cCool Vendor\u201d by Gartner, Inc., \u201cBest in Show at ISTE\u201d by Tech & Learning Magazine for three consecutive years and was ranked on the Inc. 500 list in 2016 and 2017. zSpace is a privately held, venture backed company located in Sunnyvale, California, and has been granted more than 25 patents for its innovative technologies.

        "raw_content": "Published by Paper Dragon Games\nConstellation is the premiere offering from Paper Dragon Games. Their mission statement is to bring good quality board game style adaptations to the PC. It would seem that they have succeeded nicely here. The game is a short turn based strategy affair that is instantly playable, addictive and fun. Although a round can be completed in less than a minute (and nearly always less than five minutes), I have found myself playing for well over an hour in a sitting.\nIn essence, the game is a territorial battle of control that sees each player, in turn, repeatedly choose one planet from the galaxy map on which to build a base. The base exerts control over the planet that it has been built on, as well as any other adjacent planets that are connected to it. Any planets where the player can exert more influence over than opponents is said to be owned by that player. At the end of the game (usually called when all planets are owned) the player with the most owned planets is declared the winner, and a new game starts afresh on a randomly generated map.\nThere are three sizes of planets in any galaxy, the smallest of which can only support a level one base. But on the medium and large planets respectively, level two and level three bases may be added. This is done by simply selecting a planet that already contains a base instead of an uninhabited planet on the player\u2019s turn. These larger bases are capable of exerting extra control over adjacent planets. A lot of the strategic choice in the game stems from the player weighing up establishing a base on a larger but less well positioned planet, to colonising the smaller, but perhaps very well connected planets.\nThe core game rule set, as described above and as playable in the demo, makes for a reasonably entertaining game, but certainly nothing stellar. But once the game is registered (for a very reasonable $6) additional optional settings make the game much more fun. Firstly, special planet types are unlocked. Earth style planets are level two planets in size, but because of their inherent conduciveness to life, a base built on then is immediately a level two entity. This makes establishing bases next to them fraught with peril. All gas giant planets in the galaxy are connected in a mysterious and unexplained manner, which sees a base built on one to exert control (equal to the size of the base) on all other gas giants in the system. Very useful to bust apart an opponents empire from within! Finally there are small resource-rich planets that resemble the Earth\u2019s moon scattered around. Even though they are only small planets and therefore can only sustain a level one base, they can project their influence through to any planet up to two connections away.\nThe flow of the game certainly does strongly favour the players who get to place bases first. The galaxies are only quite small, and having first pick means that your opponents can be on the back foot right from the start, depending on the map. The other feature that is unlocked once the game is registered is a handicapping system. Once enabled, the system places restrictions on the first turn only. Player one may only choose a small planet, player two may only take a medium or small planet, player three can take any size, and player four may take any planet including one with a special designation, if desired. This definitely levels out the playing field, and comes highly recommended.\nUp to four players can play at one PC, and computer AI players can take any slot if required. I would consider myself reasonably competent at this style of game, but even though I can beat the AI on medium difficulty nearly always, the AI on hard level still takes on average seven games out of ten in a four player match against me.\nThe game runs in a fixed resolution window on the desktop, and there are no options to configure sounds or graphics at all. Music and sound is fairly basic and repetitive; there is a claxon style warning that serves to alert the player to a base in danger of being overrun by opponents, and some explosion noise if a base is captured. Player colours don\u2019t seem to be configurable either, but at least the four colours chosen do contrast very well with each other and keep the focus on the gameplay rather than trying to decipher which player owns what.\nThere\u2019s a tutorial that steps new players through the basic rules, which is a nice touch since the game ships with no documentation at all. I also made use of the mouse-over tooltip that appears on any planet. It shows the current level of influence exerted by all players on that planet and could help those that are unfamiliar with the advanced concepts, like special planets, and assist in planning base positions.\nConstellation is a snappy and fast paced strategy game that doesn\u2019t frustrate the player because not a great deal of time is required to play a few games. A ten game series versus three AI opponents can be completed in as little as fifteen minutes. I\u2019d like to test the option to play on much bigger maps, but I do wonder whether such an option and the associated slower pace might make the game less endearing to me. The only real complaint that I can make against the game design is that the demo is an awful representation of the full game. Perhaps a time limited (BOO! \u2026 yes, I know) version of the full game might be a better choice? In any case, Constellation is well worthy of your six bucks.\nKeywords: constellation review, paper dragon games reviews, paper dragon games games, constellation scores, pc game reviews, indie game reviews, independent gaming.",

Mannal on Chapter 90 funding for Barnstable and Yarmouth\nThe Chapter 90 bond bill authorizes $300 million in state reimbursements of local spending on road and bridge repairs\nARTICLE | Op Ed | May 14, 2013 08:30 PM\n2nd Barnstable Rep. Brian Mannal's district is comprised of the towns of Barnstable (Precincts 2-10 & 13) and Yarmouth (Precincts 5 & 6).\nRep Mannal announces Chapter 90 funding for fiscal year 2014\nYarmouth and Barnstable will receive $1,289,397 and $3,035,336\nBy State Representative Brian Mannal\nI am announcing today that the Second Barnstable District, which is comprised of the towns of Barnstable (Precincts 2-10 & 13) and Yarmouth (Precincts 5 & 6) has moved one step closer to being awarded money through the state\u2019s Chapter 90 state transportation funding. The Chapter 90 bond bill, which has now been approved by both the Senate and the House of Representatives, authorizes Governor Deval Patrick to approve $300 million in state reimbursements of local spending on road and bridge repairs.\nThe towns of Yarmouth and Barnstable will receive $1,289,397 and $3,035,336, respectively, for local road projects in the 2014 Fiscal Year. The money allocated to the Second Barnstable District is expected to create construction jobs, improve transportation infrastructure and public safety, as well as encourage long-term economic development in the region.\n\u201cRepairing bridges and repaving roads is not only necessary for our region\u2019s public safety, but also critical to the future health and vitality of our economy,\u201d said Rep. Mannal. \u201cI\u2019m pleased to announce that the single year sum for Fiscal Year 2014 is a 50% increase over the funding that\nBarnstable and Yarmouth received last year.\u201d\nCreated by the Legislature in 1973, the Chapter 90 program provides reimbursements to municipalities for road and bridge expenditures through the issuance of bonds. In addition to rebuilding and repairing local roads and bridges, Chapter 90 funds may also be used for engineering services related to highway transportation enhancement, as well as for the purchase of road building machinery and equipment. Funding for Chapter 90 is allocated using a longstanding formula that is based upon community road miles, census population, and employment numbers.\nBrian R.

The first \"brush breakers\" were designed and built in the 1930s and 1940s by the Cape's fire departments to meet a specific need in dealing with a dangerous rural forest fire danger.\nCape Cod has a very volatile forest fuel load made up of scrub pines, oaks and others. This fuel load and local weather conditions are usually very conducive to forest fires especially during the droughts of the 1930s. Some of these fires burned hundreds of acres per hour in a true fire storm.\nOver the years Cape Cod's firefighters tried a number of systems to combat these fires. Early detection has been provided by several fire towers which still dot the Cape to this day while firefighting is performed by specialized apparatus know as \"brush breakers.\"\nBrush breakers are all-wheel drive trucks with heavy steel bars and protective plating welded to protect the trucks while it literally drives through the woods, winding its way along the flanks of the fire, knocking down and driving over trees as necessary.\n1620: The Mayflower leaves Plymouth England for Virginia, ends up here\nMayflower settlers endured rough conditions\nOn this day in 1620, Capt. Christopher Jones, with a crew of 30 and 102 passengers, set sail \u201cwith a prosperous wind\u201d from Plymouth, England, in the Mayflower and headed west across the Atlantic Ocean to settle what would become the first permanent English settlement in New England...\nThe passengers who disembarked at Cape Cod in early November were in woeful condition after what must have been an extremely difficult and fearful crossing. Most of the travelers were constantly seasick, sanitary conditions were primitive in the extreme, and the food supply was totally insufficient and unhealthy for the travelers who spent most of the time below deck huddled together for warmth and companionship....\nHappily, we now know a great deal about the harrowing trials and tribulations of the early years of the Pilgrim Colony...\nRead the full story in the Northwest Herald here.\n2003: The day Cape Wind won the first round\nEnergy cost triples in half a decade\nOn this day in 2003, the opponents to the wind farm in Nantucket Sound got their first of a dozen legal set-backs, and that was when gas was selling for $1.48 a gallon, 36% of the price in August 2008.\nA prescient article from the Christian Science Monitor from that week began:\nAs Americans become more detached from their power sources, sacrificing for an invisible grid holds less and less appeal. But the stakes are high...\nA stormy debate over who will make such sacrifices is raging in Massachusetts' Nantucket Sound...\nLast week, a federal judge struck a blow to opponents of a proposed $700 million offshore wind farm there, who fear the consequences of such an installation for ocean views and local wildlife...\nBut the problem is broader than Cape Cod, and deeper...",

        "raw_content": "Nurse Practitioner Jannine Bowen will be the first to tell you she didn\u2019t become a nurse for the money. But, she\u2019ll add, the pay\u2019s not bad either. She obtained a diploma in nursing more than 20 years ago, and that\u2019s been her only regret.\n\"I got a diploma and not a university degree because I wanted to save myself one year of schooling.\u201d Bowen saved herself a year of school but as a result, endured years of casual work, job juggling, and cross-border work (which she does not recommend). \"I had to do it all to make enough money to support myself.\"\nAnd while she gained lots of varied nursing experience, in the end, she decided to go back to school in 2005, spending the next seven years (on and off due to family illness) driving from Ontario to Buffalo one day a week to get her Masters Degree in Nursing.\nThe primary point of boosting your education is to keep your skills fresh, she explains, adding that career advancement and higher pay are potential benefits, too. Here are Bowen's hard-earned tips for boosting your earning potential.\nHow to boost your earning potential\nJump the pay scale dramatically \u2014 consider working in a remote region. Bowen works in remote regions in Northern Ontario and Nunavut for short periods of time every year, primarily because she\u2019s driven to make a difference in regions of Canada with poorer health care. \"But I also highly recommend it for the autonomy. We work at nurses station, three of us, with no doctor, no pharmacy, everything is remote access only, and we\u2019ll serve 800 people.\" Not only will you gain confidence, explains Bowen, she says that she earns enough money working for two weeks in Nunavut to pay for a whole year of her Masters program. \"The lifestyle is obviously different of course. Some areas are extremely remote with few amenities. But there\u2019s also no mall for you to spend all the money you\u2019re earning either,\" she jokes. Some government regions will also pay for your schooling, she adds.\n20 per cent pay increase \u2014 constantly seek to learn. Bowen estimates that her Masters degree and subsequent advanced nursing status resulted in about a 20 per cent pay increase. \"But you should be constantly advancing your education because nursing is all about best practices, the pay increase should be secondary,\" she adds. Next, Bowen has applied to get her doctorate in northern and rural health at Laurentian University. While this won\u2019t likely lead to higher pay in a clinical environment, she says, it would allow her to teach nursing someday. \"If I do teach, it would probably boost my income another 20 per cent. But right now, I prefer clinical work.\"\n2 to 10 per cent pay lift \u2014 teach your skills to others. Bowen is a member of the Emergency Nurses Association where she eventually became an instructor teaching other new nurse members skills advancing courses. She spends about two days a month doing this, which earns her about an extra 10 per cent a year. \"I don\u2019t do it for the money mind you, but because I am passionate about nurses taking care of you and I when we face acute trauma. I want nurses to be confident.\"\nNet loss \u2014 doing over-time. Over-time can earn you more money, but it's no way to live, says Bowen. \"I've seen many nurses burn out this way.\" If you want to make a change, or if you want to earn more money, you have to get outside of your comfort zone, she adds, whether that\u2019s changing jobs, or going back to school or taking a new course.\nJump the pay scale dramatically - consider working in a remote region.

        "raw_content": "THE STATE v. SOWAH AND ESSEL\nCriminal law and procedure?-Burden of proof?-Whether guilt can be presumed merely from facts proved by prosecution.\nAt the trial of the accused who both pleaded not guilty the learned trial judge said:\"I am satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the accused entered the room of P.W. 1 by breaking open the lock and stole the items specified in the second count despite the fact that none of these articles were found.I was so satisfied before the accused gave evidence.\" Both accused were convicted and subsequently appealed.\nAPPEALS against convictions for unlawful entry and stealing by Simpson J. sitting with the aid of assessors at the Kumasi Criminal Sessions on the 5th May, 1961.\nCrabbe, J.S.C. delivered the judgment of the court. The appellants were jointly charged on two counts, one of unlawful entry and the second of stealing, and were convicted by Simpson, J. The simple facts which were proved in support of the charges were that the second appellant and the complainant (P.W.2) lived in one room in the house of one Osei Kwabena at Asafo in Kumasi. On the day of the alleged unlawful entry and stealing the complainant said that he left home for business at about 7 a.m. after having locked his door and taken his key with him. Later the same day the two appellants were seen in the room of the complainant by the house-owner, Osei Kwabena, who thinking that the second appellant had obtained the key from the complainant at the latter's place of business asked no questions and went and sat by a friend outside the house. Soon the two appellants came out of the house and the first appellant was seen carrying two handbags on his head. The behaviour of the appellants aroused the suspicion of the house-owner who then went into the house and found that the latch on the complainant's door had been broken. He sent to the market for the complainant who came to the house, and it was thereupon discovered that the articles enumerated in count two had been stolen.\nIt must be said at the outset in fairness to the learned trial judge that there is some evidence, which, if believed, would justify the convictions of the appellants, but we may say in the words of Cassels, J. in R. v. McKenna1 that, \"Plain though many juries may have thought this case, the principle at stake is more important than the case itself\". [p.745]\nThe judgment in this case was brief and after a similarly brief review of the evidence for the prosecution the learned trial judge said as follows:\n\"I am satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the accused entered the room of P.W. 1 by breaking open the lock and stole the items specified in the second count despite the fact that none of these articles were found\".\nThe passage is immediately followed by the following sentence: \"I was so satisfied before the accused gave evidence\".\nIn our view the above passage and the sentence when considered in their contexts mean no more than that the learned trial judge became fully convinced of the guilt of the appellants solely on the evidence for the prosecution and before each appellant opened his defence to the charges. This we think put the onus on the appellants to prove their innocence.\nWith very great respect to the learned trial judge we think that these expressions in his judgment constitute such a serious misdirection as completely destroys the golden thread which according to Viscount Sankey, L.C., in the Woolmington v. D.P.P.2, runs through the web of the English criminal law. The burden of proof in a criminal trial is not fully discharged until the guilt of the accused is made to appear from the evidence in the case.\nAt the trial each appellant pleaded not guilty to both counts in the indictment. Such a plea normally puts in issue every fact essential to constitute the crime charged and, \"Upon that plea the accused may stand, shielded by the presumption of his innocence, until it appears that he is guilty; and his guilt cannot in the very nature of things be regarded as proved, if the jury entertain a reasonable doubt from the evidence\" per Harlan J. in Davis v. U.S.3\nIn a criminal case, except in the instance of sanity, and matters expressly thrown on the accused by statute, there is in general no presumption against an accused person, and an accused person is not bound to give evidence. It is wrong therefore to presume the guilt of an accused merely from the facts proved by the prosecution. The case for the prosecution only provides prima facie evidence from which the guilt of the accused may be presumed, and which, therefore, calls for explanation by the accused.\n\"'Presumptions of guilt' and 'prima facie' cases of guilt in the trial of a party charged with crime mean no more than that from the proof of certain facts the jury will be warranted in convicting the accused of the offence with which he is charged\".\nSee Woolmington v. D.P.P.4 [p.746]\nIn the recent case of R v. Ojojo5 it was said:\n?\"It is a well established principle that before a jury can consider the case for the defence, whether they believe it or not, they must be satisfied that the prosecution has affirmatively proved its case. In our view it is only when the jury is satisfied that the prosecution has proved its case that it can turn to the defence, and consider whether the defence answers the case proved by the prosecution?\".\nWe think that this passage taken out of its context might well have led the learned trial judge into thinking that at the close of the case for the prosecution the accused is to be called upon if it appears from the evidence at that stage that the prosecution has established the guilt of the accused.\nThe above quotation is, however, followed by the following passage:\n?\"The proper direction is that if the defence answers the case for the prosecution, then the jury should find the prisoner not guilty; or if the defence raises a reasonable doubt in the mind of the jury on the case for the prosecution, the prisoner is entitled to acquittal, because there is a doubt. The jury must be told that they can return a verdict of guilty only when they are so satisfied on the consideration of the case as a whole?\".\nR. v. Ojojo (supra) is a case in which the trial judge had allowed the case to go to the jury even though he himself had entertained a doubt on the case for the prosecution, and the Court of Appeal before laying down the principle contained in the foregoing passage had asked the following question: \"If at the close of the case for the prosecution there was a doubt as to whether or not the appellant had committed any offence of which he could lawfully be convicted on the information upon which he was being tried, why was he called upon to enter a defence?\". In our view when the court in that case said that the jury \"must be satisfied that the prosecution has affirmatively proved its case\" it meant no more than to emphasise the general rule adumbrated in the maxim ei qui affirmat non ei qui negat incumbit probatio and that the words \"satisfied\" and \"affirmatively\" have no reference to proof beyond reasonable doubt which stage can only be reached after considering the case for the defence.\nEach appellant in this case gave evidence. The defence of the first appellant was an alibi, and the second appellant whilst admitting that he went to the house in question denied categorically that he entered the room of the complainant and committed the two offences with which he was charged. In the circumstances it was essential for the learned trial judge in weighing the evidence to direct his mind to the three possible positions in which he might find himself, bearing in mind throughout that it was for the prosecution to displace the presumption of innocence in favour of the appellants, that is to say: (1) if he accepted the explanations of the appellants he must acquit them; (2) short of accepting that explanation, if it left him in doubt, he must acquit them; (3) he must be satisfied of the guilt of the appellants of the crimes alleged against them only on consideration of the whole evidence adduced in the case. (See R. v. Murtagh and Kennedy6). [p.747]\nIt does not appear from the judgment that the learned trial judge considered these points, and the expression \"I was so satisfied before the accused gave evidence\" in the judgment leaves us with the impression that the learned trial judge prejudged the guilt of the appellants before he heard them. We think that the learned trial judge erred because evidence for the prosecution merely displaces the presumption of innocence but the guilt of the accused is not put beyond reasonable doubt until the accused himself has given evidence. In Woolmington v. D.P.P. (supra) Viscount Sankey, L.C. said:\n\"If at any period of a trial it was permissible for the judge to rule that the prosecution had established its case and that the onus was shifted on the prisoner to prove that he was not guilty and that unless he discharged that onus the prosecution was entitled to succeed, it would be enabling the judge in such a case to say that the jury must in law find the prisoner guilty and so make the judge decide the case and not the jury, which is not the common law. It would be an entirely different case from those exceptional instances of special verdicts where a judge asks the jury to find certain facts and directs them that on such facts the prosecution is entitled to succeed. Indeed, a consideration of such special verdicts shows that it is not till the end of the evidence that a verdict can properly be found and that at the end of the evidence it is not for the prisoner to establish his innocence, but for the prosecution to establish his guilt. Just as there is evidence on behalf of the prosecution so there may be evidence on behalf of the prisoner which may cause a doubt as to his guilt. In either case, he is entitled to the benefit of the doubt. But while the prosecution must prove the guilt of the prisoner, there is no such burden laid on the prisoner to prove his innocence and it is sufficient for him to raise a doubt as to his guilt; he is not bound to satisfy the jury of his innocence\".7\nFor the above reasons we allow the appeal of each appellant, quash the convictions, set aside the sentences and order an acquittal and discharge of each appellant.\n<P>Appeals allowed. </P> <P>Appellants acquitted and discharged.</P>\nAppellants in person.\n(1) R. v.

        "raw_content": "Fraudulent Receipt of Funds\nStudents who feel they may need additional resources to fund their educational costs are encouraged to apply for financial assistance. The Financial Aid staff make every effort to utilize state, federal, and private resources effectively to meet a student\u2019s documented need. Student financial aid is awarded after the student has been accepted for admission and has completed the financial aid application process. It is recommended that a student complete all necessary financial aid paperwork prior to enrollment for the upcoming semester. The priority date for applying and completing all paperwork to secure financial aid for the fall semester is April 1. However, students are welcome to apply for financial aid after April 1. Contact the Office of Financial Aid for priority dates for spring and summer enrollment.\nLamar Community College complies with all Title IV financial aid regulations of the Higher Education Act of 1965 as amended. For more information related to the Title IV financial aid regulations, contact the Office of Financial Aid at 719.336.1590.\nFor more information on financial aid procedures, options, and student responsibilities at Lamar Community College, consult the LCC Financial Aid Handbook available online (http://www.lamarcc.edu/admission/paying-for-college/financial-aid/).\nLamar Community College utilizes the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for determining the student\u2019s eligibility for all financial aid. Students should complete the FAFSA at www.fafsa.gov . The FAFSA application may be completed after October 1 (recommended: after tax returns have been filed).\nThe most important part of the financial aid process is the student\u2019s timely response to requests for information, which are sent to student email accounts. Many times students respond to the initial request and assume the application is complete. However, occasionally it may be necessary to provide additional information. It is strongly recommended that students respond to all requests for information as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary delays in the financial aid process.\nLamar Community College offers multiple financial aid resources to help students and parents meet a student\u2019s documented need. The four types of aid resources include: 1) grants, 2) work-study programs, 3) loan programs, and 4) scholarships.\nGrant awards do not have to be repaid. By completing the application procedures previously mentioned, students are automatically applying for consideration for the following grants.\nFederal Pell Grant award amounts are determined by the U.S. Department of Education.\nFederal Supplemental Opportunity Grants\nThese need-based awards range from $100-$4,000 per academic year at LCC and are only available to students with a FAFSA EFC of zero.\nOpen to Colorado residents, the minimum award amount for the year is $500 per semester. This amount may be prorated to enrollment level.\nFederal and State funds are utilized to provide part-time employment opportunities for qualified students. Students may work up to 20 hours per week and earn between $1,000 and $3,000 for an academic year. Awards are based on the evaluation of the student\u2019s financial need and the needs of campus departments. No-need work-study funds also are available to Colorado residents. Students do not have to document financial need to receive these funds. Interested students should contact the Office of Financial Aid.\nFederal Stafford Loans-Subsidized and Unsubsidized\nStudents must complete the FAFSA to receive consideration for a Stafford Loan. A separate loan application is required. Students borrowing on these programs have a yearly maximum borrowing limit. The subsidized and unsubsidized portion of the annual loan limit for an individual student is based on the evaluation of the student\u2019s documented need, financial aid status and aggregate student loan debt.\nThe Federal Direct PLUS Loan program (Parent Loans for undergraduate Students) is designed to assist parents in providing their contribution to educational costs. Eligible parent borrowers may borrow up to the amount of the student\u2019s estimated cost of attendance less any other financial aid awarded during the academic year. A separate application and credit check are required.\nLCC offers a variety of scholarships for students of all types, ages, majors, and places of residency. Every year there are unused scholarship dollars, so don\u2019t wait - apply. These scholarships are funded through the college, the LCC Foundation, and other state and community organizations. Students are encouraged to discover scholarship eligibility by:\nLooking at https://lamarcc.edu/admission/paying-for-college/scholarships.\nWhen you find something you want to apply for, click the apply online links on the page.\nOnce in the online application, you can apply for multiple scholarships at one time and submit common documentation as well as scholarship-specific required materials.\nYou don\u2019t have to finish the application in one sitting. You can save an application in process. To do that, just create a password and save the application link, so you can go back to finish the un-submitted application. You can also have the link emailed to you so you can easily go back.\nRemember to submit the entire application with required documentation on or before the scholarship deadline(s) to be considered for funding.\nIf you have problems submitting the form or required materials, contact the LCC Student Service Center (719.336.1590) or the LCC Foundation office (719.336.1520). Additional required documents can be emailed to aid@lamarcc.edu\nAll students should notify the Office of Financial Aid of any changes in their financial situation, marital status, residence, class standing, or any other factors that can reasonably be construed to have a bearing on their financial aid.\nStudents applying for and/or receiving Title IV financial aid are expected to maintain satisfactory academic progress consisting of meeting cumulative GPA requirements and the cumulative credit completion rate. Failure to perform at established levels may result in students becoming ineligible for financial aid. LCC follows to the Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards established by the U.S. Department of Education and the Colorado Community College System. CCCS policy is located at http://www.cccs.edu/state-board/policies-procedures/\nAny student may present a written appeal to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee if the student has been denied aid for any reason. Further information on the appeals process may be obtained from the Office of Financial Aid or from the LCC Financial Aid Handbook .\nIf LCC suspects that a student, employee, or other individual has misreported information or altered documentation to fraudulently obtain federal funds, the college will report evidence to the Office of Inspector General.",

        "raw_content": "Trump SEC Fails to Pursue Aggressive Deregulatory Agenda (Albeit from Previous Pathetic Baseline)\nPosted on February 26, 2018 by Jerri-Lynn Scofield\nThe Wall Street Journal published a piece today, , gently chiding the SEC for not pursuing an aggressive deregulatory agenda during Trump\u2019s first year in office.\nNow, I can\u2019t say that I\u2019m wholly surprised by this state of affairs. As I wrote in a January 2017 post at the time Trump selected Jay Clayton, a partner at the white shoe law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell,to head the SEC\u2013 in a section I headed Turkeys Don\u2019t Vote for Thanksgiving):\nI\u2019m going to go out on a limb here (irony alert), and suggest that Clayton won\u2019t smash the securities law framework or necessarily go especially slow on enforcement\u2013 especially compared to the existing White/Shapiro baseline\u2013 precisely because he\u2019s come from S & C\u2013 one of the leading law firms in the country, with an unparalleled securities law practice. Such a firm wouldn\u2019t want to see the securities framework dismantled or appreciably diminished. Why? Well, that\u2019s how its lawyers make their money: by advising clients how to comply with the law. If any significant element of the securities law framework is dismantled\u2013 there goes a huge chunk of S & C\u2019s raison d\u2019\u00eatre. For a former S & C partner to willy nilly trash securities laws would be akin to a turkey voting for Thanksgiving.\nCrucially, how serious the SEC is about enforcement will depend on who is appointed to be director of enforcement, and how serious the DoJ is about targeting and investigating white collar and corporate offenses, and trying cases when evidence of wrongdoing is uncovered.\nI should also point out here that although an SEC chair has great power to shape the agency\u2019s agenda, many of the more far-reaching reforms Trump has hinted at would require legislation.\nNow, Trump does appear to be dead serious about regulatory reform\u2013 in particular, rolling back Dodd-Frank\u2013 although like many aspects of Trump policy, exactly what he means by that is vague, often inconsistent, and not completely clear\u2026.\nHow do those predictions stand up, a year and a bit later?\nThe SEC \u2019s Record Over the Past Year\nLet\u2019s see what the WSJ has to say:\nJay Clayton, President Donald Trump\u2019s pick to lead the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, can point to a series of small, targeted actions aimed at easing the regulatory burden for companies nearly 10 months into his tenure.\nThe SEC\u2019s incremental progress stands in contrast to the early days of the Trump administration, which were punctuated by a swift succession of executive orders aimed squarely at deregulation. One order told regulators that any new rule would require the elimination of two old rules, while another called on the Treasury and Congress to roll back the Dodd-Frank financial overhaul law.\nHowever, those early announcements have yielded modest impact in the realm of financial regulation. The most ambitious effort to revoke and replace the Dodd-Frank law\u2014 Rep. Jeb Hensarling\u2019s (R., Texas) Financial Choice Act\u2014passed the House in June but failed to clear the Senate.\nThe SEC has signaled more gradual action aimed at streamlining regulations for the coming year.\n\u201cModernizing the rules without in any way taking away investor protection is the best thing that we can do,\u201d Mr. Clayton told CFO Journal on the sidelines of the Practicing Law Institute\u2019s \u201cSEC Speaks\u201d conference in Washington on Friday. The agency is looking at all rules to see what could be pruned back, the SEC chairman said.\nIn making changes, the SEC is limited by its mission to enforce securities law and protect investors, current and former SEC commissioners say.\nMoreover, only Congress can revoke statutes such as Dodd-Frank and the Sarbanes-Oxley corporate governance law, which many business groups say raise the cost of compliance.\nRegulatory Record\nNow, I do take issue with the WSJ analysis, on at least a couple of points. First, the SEC\u2019s record during the aftermath of the financial crisis was pretty bad, so if we measure the performance of the current SEC against such a baseline, the relative performance will look better than it actually is (for more on this point, please see my November 2016 post, Mary Jo White Leaves Behind a Weakened SEC for Trump to Weaken Further).\nSpecifically on the regulatory side, I think the record of the Clayton SEC is mixed. (Keep reading for my thoughts on enforcement, which follow below.) Let me discuss two points here.\nOn the one hand, the agency has been reluctant to allow a significant ramping up in selling bitcoin and cryptocurrency snake oil to retail investors (see my earlier post from last month, SEC Stymies Plans to Offer Bitcoin Funds Anytime Soon, in which I discussed an that \u201cput the kibosh on plans to offer exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or other products based on bitcoin or cryptocurrencies to retail investors anytime soon\u201d. This is as we\u2019d hope and expect a prudent regulator to act.\nOn the other hand, in July, the agency\u2019s Division of Corporation Finance abruptly decided to \u201callow all companies to submit draft registration statements relating to initial public offerings (IPOs) for review on a nonpublic basis, according to this agency press release. This new policy extends a benefit previously available only to emerging growth companies (EGCs) under the Jumpstart Our Businesses Startup (JOBS) Act to all companies.\u201d I discussed this policy change in Doubling Down on Deregulation: SEC Extends JOBS Act Benefit in Elusive Quest to Goose IPO Market. It is a misguided policy, and I believe it will only lead to more fraud and mischief in IPOs.\nYet this is an extension of previous policy rather than a significant departure. In my post, I elaborated on previous separate posts by each of Yves and Bill Black discussing the JOBS Act travesty (see Why You Should Hate the \u201cJumpstart Obama\u2019s Bucket Shops\u201d Act (Yves) and How the Jumpstart Obama\u2019s Bucket Shops Act is Just Another in a Long Series of Fraud-Promoting Legislation) (Bill Black).\nNow,I don\u2019t deny that the Clayton SEC is indeed responsible for extending this travesty\u2013 but it\u2019s merely extension of legislation enacted during the reign of Trump\u2019s predecessor. The JOBS Act passed in 2012 with the full support to the administration and Congress at that time. So this last folly has a bipartisan genesis (with \u201cbipartisan\u201d being a good tell for when Congresscritters and other elected officials are up to no good). Black wrote that the JOBS Act would promote rather than deter fraud. As would no doubt the latest extension. But it\u2019s important to note the buck didn\u2019t start here.\nWhat Comes Next on Regulation?\nInterestingly, going forward, Clayton appears to have no major plans to launch a deregulatory push\u2013 or at least said as much when speaking to the WSJ on Friday:\nAnd now, let me turn to enforcement\u2013 a topic addressed In a February crossposted piece in which Nomi Prins noted:\nClayton\u2019s main accomplishment so far has been to significantly reduce oversight activities. SEC penalties, for instance, to $3.5 billion during the first year of the Trump administration. The SEC also issued enforcement actions against only 62 public companies in 2017, a 33% decline from the previous year. Perhaps you won\u2019t then be surprised to learn that its enforcement division has an estimated unfilled investigative and supervisory positions\u2026\nThe Washington Post provides further scope and detail on this decline in this November 2017 article :\n\u201cSagging numbers signal a chilling retreat from enforcement, which was already milquetoast following the financial crash,\u201d said Bart Naylor, a financial policy advocate for the civic group Public Citizen. \u201cBy the enforcement division\u2019s own accounting, they are receiving reports of suspicious activity many orders of magnitude greater than what results in a sanction. Wall Street has never been an Eagle Scout alumni association, but failure by the Clayton SEC to elevate enforcement and hold individuals to severe penalties will only attract more scams.\u201d\nTo reinforce that point: this is a significant drop-off from the record logged by an SEC I called a paper enforcement tiger in my post on Mary Jo White I cited above. So, the current SEC appears not to be seeking to strike fear into the hearts of securities law malefactors either. Quelle surprise!\nToday\u2019s WSJ piece fails to mention the enforcement angle.\nThere\u2019s a potential new battlefield emerging, however, as reported today\u2019s WSJ piece:\nThe SEC also could sidestep another issue: whether to allow companies to include a mandatory arbitration clause in their registration documents. The move would eliminate investor class-action lawsuits. \u201cIt\u2019s not part of our agenda,\u201d Mr. Clayton said when asked about the issue on a panel at the PLI conference.\nHowever, the issue could still come up if, as part of its registration process, a company seeks the agency\u2019s approval to include the clause.\nBusiness lobbyists succeeded in overturning the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau\u2019s (CFPB ban on mandatory arbitration clauses in consumer financial contracts (as I discussed in multiple posts, the most recent being, RIP, CFPB Mandatory Arbitration Ban). It looks like some part of the \u201clegal reform\u201d crew might be looking to extend this victory to try and require (at least some) investor disputes be settled via arbitration as well. How serious this effort might shape up to be is beyond the scope of the current post, but would be a troubling development\u2013 one that I will explore more carefully in a future post, once I\u2019ve had more time to delve into the weeds.\nThis entry was posted in Banana republic, Banking industry, Corporate governance, Guest Post, Legal, Moral hazard, Regulations and regulators on February 26, 2018 by Jerri-Lynn Scofield.\nsgt_doom February 26, 2018 at 1:42 pm\nNo offense intended, but any articles on the SEC are beyond arbitrary and superfluousness.\nClayton is one of the global reigning Tax Haven Kings \u2013 \u2013 obviously.\nThe first action which occurred when President Bill Clinton entered the White House at the beginning of his first term (the same Clinton who as presidential candidate accepted free office space and donations from the Blackstone Group) was over at the SEC: they immediately changed the rule requiring the names of the major investors investing through Wall Street investment firms, which effectively hid ownership from that point forward to the present!\non that note, this is tangentially related.\nThe White House on Friday quietly released its to Congress on the costs and benefits of regulations and the results show that major rulemakings over the past decade have yielded great benefits.\nThe findings are at odds with an administration that\u2019s pushing federal agencies to cut rules and ease excessive regulatory burdens it says were imposed by the previous administration.\nThe Trump administration report says that from fiscal 2007 through 2016 the annual economic benefits of major rulemakings reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) were estimated to be between $287 billion and $911 billion.\nThe report found that from Oct. 1, 2006, to Sept. 30, 2016, the annual benefits of regulations outweighed the annual costs, which were estimated to be between $78 billion and $115 billion in 2015 dollars.\nJerri-Lynn Scofield Post author February 27, 2018 at 12:56 pm\nThanks for posting this link.\n\u0423 \u043d\u0430\u0448\u0435\u0439 \u0444\u0438\u0440\u043c\u044b \u043d\u0443\u0436\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u0438\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0440\u043d\u0435\u0442-\u0441\u0430\u0439\u0442 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u043d\u0430\u043f\u0440\u0430\u0432\u043b\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 http://220km.com.ua.\n\u0411\u044b\u043b \u043d\u0430\u0439\u0434\u0435\u043d \u043c\u043d\u043e\u0439 \u0432\u0430\u0436\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u0438\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0440\u043d\u0435\u0442-\u0441\u0430\u0439\u0442 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u043d\u0430\u043f\u0440\u0430\u0432\u043b\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u0435\u0436\u0435\u0434\u043d\u0435\u0432\u043d\u0438\u043a\u0438 \u043a\u0438\u0435\u0432 https://vanco.com.ua\n\u0423\u0437\u043d\u0430\u0439\u0442\u0435 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u043d\u0443\u0436\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u0438\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0440\u043d\u0435\u0442-\u0441\u0430\u0439\u0442 \u0441 \u0438\u043d\u0444\u043e\u0440\u043c\u0430\u0446\u0438\u0435\u0439 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0448\u0438\u043d\u044b \u043f\u0440\u0435\u043c\u0438\u043e\u0440\u0438 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0438\u0437\u0432\u043e\u0434\u0438\u0442\u0435\u043b\u044c.",

There\u2019s a good summary (for once) in the and for those who read French, masses of coverage in the French media, such as . The charges are in technical language but relate essentially to \u201cpassive corruption, illegal financing of an election campaign, and mishandling (\u201crecel\u201d) of funds belonging to the Libyan state.\u201d In themselves, the charges are serious (the first such charges against a French head of state) but relate essentially to campaign financing, so will not necessarily go to the highest courts. But the really interesting question is what light will be shed on the whole period of Sarkozy/Ghadafi relations between 2004 (when Sarkozy was Interior Minister) and the bombing of Libya in 2011.\nSarkozy has already reacted violently. His defence against the charges (leaked to Le Figaro, owned by Serge Dassault, one of his biggest financial supporters and maker of the Rafale aircraft, first marketed to Libya and then used to bomb it) is that this was all a Libyan conspiracy to ensure that he lost the 2012 election. He\u2019s already facing charges over the financing of that election.\nSarkozy has been released from custody and will apparently be appearing on TV tonight (!) to give his side of the story.\nI think you are right, there is a big untold story about the connections between Ghaddafi and European leaders, the French in particular. I would really like to know what he did to ensure they were so anxious to silence him in the end after so many years of having his back. With luck this will come out in a trial. Mind you, with what Sarkozy knows, one wonders whether enough powerful people will want to silence him one way or another, he is a thoroughly nasty piece of work who would sell his grandmother if it would benefit him. The French electorate do seem to have a penchant for pint sized narcissists.\nIncidentally, a book published back in the late 1980\u2019s (suppressed through legal reasons) alleged that Ghaddafi originally came to power after the intervention of a major US oil multinational \u2013 he apparently promised that he would nationalise European assets, but not those associated with that company. The executive in charge later became Secretary of State under Reagan \u2013 who then tried to kill Ghaddafi, but instead. The book was passed around like a samizdat publication among junior employees of that company, I recall one showing me a much thumbed version as if it was a bomb \u2013 he actually whispered as he showed it to me. I regret not making a note of its name or author.\nColonel Smithers March 22, 2018 at 9:25 am\nThank you, PK.\nYou are right to highlight Colonel K / G\u2019s links to European leaders.

He says \u201ctorture\u201d instead of \u201cenhanced interrogation\u201d because he can\u2019t remember what the difference is supposed to be. Which is understandable. Fifteen years is a long time for a rotting brain to keep up a pretense.\nWe flatter ourselves that Trump is an aberration. He isn\u2019t. He\u2019s a depraved, cowardly, above-the-law bully, just like the country we\u2019ve allowed ourselves to become in the last fifteen years.\nThat we now deserve him as president is a consequence of the final lesson of the Iraq debacle: We lost that war. Not militarily maybe, but in the sense that we so completely dismantled what was left of our civil society in prosecution of it that, looking back, a battlefield loss would surely have been preferable.\nWherever he is now, as eels perhaps slither through his eye-holes, Osama bin Laden has to be laughing.

I\u2019d venture that this is one reason why the only amendment in the Bill of Rights that now matters is the Second.\n\u201cA decade and a half later, [US] authorities no longer need to ask anyone permission to do anything. They\u2019ve created in the interim an entirely separate, secret set of rules giving them the right to kill, imprison, torture, or spy on anyone.\u201d \u2014 Matt Taibbi\nWhich goes to show that the events of September 2001 were a de facto coup d\u2019etat, and that our secret government lacks any constitutional legitimacy.\nCitizens owe no duty of loyalty to an illegitimate usurper government.\nThis is the type of essay that Taibbi excels at. He is the master of getting to the core of a situation and inspiring us as we see what we already know.\nIt\u2019s as if the cataracts have finally been removed.\nOther secret bureaucracies formed. As the War on Terror expanded from Afghanistan to Iraq and outward to places like Yemen and Syria and God knows where else, American authorities began to tell us that the most significant new threats actually came from within our own borders.\nFrom the AUMF 2001:\n(a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.\nThose persons and organizations are reported to be in Syria and Yemen, among other places.\nA couple of days ago, we read that Congress tried, unsuccessfully, to end our involvement in Yemen. Why only there, when persons and organizations listed in the 2001 AUMF are there, and not, say, Syria as well?\nIn general, the AUMF of 2001, is the worst piece of legislation ever, by the US Congress.\nBut it does give \u201ccover\u201d to the unstated, long-running goals of Amerika that Taibbi discusses.\nYes, it gave the military, the CIA and contractors cover to go to Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and many other places.\nBut why did some senators only want to end involvement in Yemen?\nThe resolution was to end involvement in the Saudi conflict with the Houthis. Not covered by the AUMF\nI thought it was involvement in Yemen.\nFrom one of yesterday\u2019s links:\nThe United States Senate killed a resolution introduced by Independent Senator Bernie Sanders and Republican Senator Mike Lee to withdraw U.S. military support for the Saudi war in Yemen.\nThat would be \u2018to end US involvement in Yemen?\u2019\nI think this is the part that is in dispute:\nThe House of Representatives passed a non-binding resolution by a vote of 366-30 last November that declared U.S. military support for Saudi Arabia in Yemen was not authorized under the 2001 Authorized Use of Military Force passed after 9/11.\nIn February, the acting general counsel for the Pentagon, William S. Castle, sent lawmakers a letter claiming U.S. support did not constitute \u201chostilities\u201d since American forces are not on the ground exchanging fire with Houthi rebels. It additionally claimed Trump had the power to make war regardless of whether Congress sought to end U.S. military involvement or not.\nThe generals think the 2001 AUMF is so broad it is applicable.\nWe can ask the same question of our involvement in Syria, for example, as well.\nThe follow up question is, then, why we don\u2019t end our involvement in Syria as well.\nWell, we only have 2,000 to 4,000 special operatives maybe 1,000 Marines on the ground in Syria, 100 or so air sorties a day, so the Pentagon, but especially the CIA doesn\u2019t want to lose that \u201ccamel\u2019s nose inside the tent.\u201d According to neoconservative strategy, as outlined in PNAC (the Project for a New American Century) we need permanent bases in Iraq and Syria. Also, too, to have a place to build up for invading Iran.\nAlfred McCoy writes about this idea, that what a country does to terrorize and take over another nation will in turn be used on its own citizens eventually. He was using as his example the US takeover of the Philippines at the turn of the 20th century. Methods of surveillance, terror and replacement of decency with mayhem are not forgotten, just reused with different names. Call it \u201chomeland security.\u201d\nHere\u2019s a prime example of that on the war on Americans via unobtainable health care:\nA woman found alive with decomposing flesh and maggots eating her.\nThey \u201ccouldn\u2019t afford health care\u2026\u201d\nOne could point out that during the primaries the \u201cdepraved bully\u201d Trump called invading Iraq \u201cthe single worst decision ever made.\u201d Perhaps Taibbi should direct his moral indignation fire at depraved bully Hillary Clinton who actually voted for the Iraq war. That, of course, would get him in trouble.\nOne doesn\u2019t have to admire or like Trump to find lazy virtue signaling via invoking the monster\u2019s name to be tiresome. For example Paul Street in Counterpunch never lets a column go by without doing this.\nwaywardad March 22, 2018 at 12:29 pm\nOr, one could consider that mammon-Trump, who has no moral rudder, has an innate ability to talk out of both sides of his mouth and his arse (where his brain appears to reside beside the filet-o-fish shart stains in his tighty-whities) and is a proven narcissist and pathological liar? Who gives a shart about HRC in our present danger (well maybe the shills like Hannity, Carlson, Limbaugh, et al and the mindless followers of Fox News do)? Prior Trump hyperbole has no value, so why quote him in this context? As President, and not as a primary candidate, he has previously consulted with and is reportedly considering appointing the Warmonger of Warmongers John Bolton as his NSC Advisor. Actually, it\u2019s the \u201cbut Obama, but the DNC, but HRC\u201d meme that is getting tiresome and pointless in our current affairs, other than understanding their historical role in perpetuating the continuation of the War State that we have been since, like, whenever.\nNo doubt, complicity in our warmongering ways runs deep in our banana republic, but maybe Taibbi understands that quoting worthless hyperbolic speech from a man who lacks dignity and trustworthiness, well, just isn\u2019t worth quoting?\nWhen Trump does something as depraved as starting the Iraq war then Taibbi will be perfectly justified in describing him as emblematic of our country\u2019s indifference to the mahem we create. You can\u2019t say that Trump\u2019s antiwar statements mean nothing but his pro war statements mean everything.\nOnly actions count, not words. And in that department Trump is still a mere poseur compared to Michelle hug-ee G.W. Bush with his Iraq holocaust. Even the horrors now going on in Yemen were something started by Obama.\nAnd if actions matter more than words then Hillary was vastly worse than Trump going by Libya, Syria, Honduras etc. She was the other choice after all, and may be gearing up to try it again.\nTrump is quite good at creating hysteria among the left. People need to calm down.\nAgree. Calm down, and recognize the Dems for what they are, it\u2019s simple to point out that the snarling corporo-fascists from Cheney to Trump are precisely what they appear to be, it\u2019s another thing altogether to point out that there is no opposition to them. Why? Why do we have Trump? Answer: because of the Democratic party, their people, their actions, and their policies.\n2017 was the deadliest year for civilian casualties in Iraq and Syria, with as many as 6,000 people killed in strikes conducted by the U.S.-led coalition, according to the watchdog group Airwars.\nThat is an increase of more than 200 percent over the previous year.\nIt is far more if you add in countries like Yemen, Afghanistan, Somalia and many others.\n[Statista]\nUp from 37 in 2016 to 103 in 2017. But it seems futile trying to convince those who convinced themselves that Trump would be The Great Noninterventionist\nthat he is nothing of the sort.\nHe just tweeted McMaster out, Bolton in.\nPlease let it be Michael, even if I can\u2019t stand his voice.\nScience Officer Smirnoff March 22, 2018 at 8:07 pm\nCornered rat syndrome & Bolton as yes-man/rat (and part instigator) what long imagined hell looms?\nSurged because of the \u201cliberation\u201d of Mosul and Raqqa from Isis, that thing spawned by Bush and Obama. The US went in and carpet bombed and shelled with huge civilian loss of life. Should this be blamed primarily on Trump? Arguing with statistics can be tricky.\nEven the horrors now going on in Yemen were something started by Obama.\nYes, this is usually forgotten. It started earlier, but the first incident I made note of was the destruction of the village al Ma\u2019jalah, on December 17, 2009, by BLGM-109D submarine-launched Tomahawk missiles (possibly only one) loaded with BLU-97A/B cluster munitions, which are probably still killing people living in that area. Then there was the Star Chamber murder of Anwar al-Awlaki without presentation of evidence or chance to defend self. I am not ready to concede that Trump is worse just because he\u2019s less attractive.\nUmm, Trumps denigrating the Iraq War decision doesn\u2019t obviate him being a \u201cdepraved bully\u201d. He, likely, denigrated the war because he had positioned himself as the outsider candidate; smarter than the dumb-asses who started the war. (Typical narcissism from a candidate who clearly stated he supported the Iraq War when it started.)\nAnybody who cavalierly threatens nuclear war/strike is clearly a depraved bully. (See: North Korea)\nAdam Eran March 22, 2018 at 6:39 pm\nI\u2019d only disagree with that \u201clast 15 years\u201d remark. Between 1798 and 1994, the U.S. was responsible for 41 changes of government south of its borders. The Monroe Doctrine essentially says \u201cSorry Europe, these are our colonies now.\u201d\nAnyway, the Chomsky interview NC cites lays a lot of that last 15 years limitation to rest.\nBob Kavanagh March 22, 2018 at 6:56 pm\nMight the US beware of this statement from the NYT\u2019s article: \u2018Many of the Iraqis we spoke to on that day were upset with institutionalization of an ethno-sectarian quota system.\u2019\nVideo Shows Uber Robot Car Rammed Into Pedestrian Wall Street Journal. Key section:\nIf self driving systems couldn\u2019t see that woman, than there is something profoundly wrong with the systems.\nAnd having a human driver who is in the driver\u2019s seat essentially as attentive and paying the same amount of attention as someone actually driving kinda negates any advantages of self driving systems.\nWould a human driver have hit the woman? \u2013 its hard to tell from the video, but I think at least a reasonably attentive human driver would have slammed on the breaks prior to impact \u2013 I don\u2019t know if that would have mitigated the impact force enough so that the woman would have survived.\nBut what is most disturbing is there seems that the whole attitude from officialdom is that this is just a minor glitch. Don\u2019t people have eyes \u2013 that pedestrian was easy to see\u2026.\nBut you know, since the first car there has been an attitude to accommodate the cars and inconvenience and endanger the pedestrians.\nand presumably the designers-engineers-bean counters thought that using traditional infrared [heat] detectors as a failsafe for lidar was quaint or too expensive or threw out too many false positives\nThat woman would be lit up as bright as day on infrared cameras.\nAdam1 March 22, 2018 at 4:01 pm\nAgreed. And I can\u2019t imagine feeling safe in a car like that with just one type of sensor. What happens if you go through a construction site and splash mud on the camera or as with where I live it snows and a potential wet snow builds up on the camera? Does the car just come to a stop? That would be useless. You need a back-up that uses a separate technology so that the probability of both failing is near zero.\nlakecabs March 22, 2018 at 8:21 am\nThe Uber car had headlights. The way the camera was set up in the car made it seem she came out of nowhere. She had to be visible for quite a while.\nLemmy Caution March 22, 2018 at 9:37 am\nShe also crossed near one of the few points on that stretch of road with overhead streetlights on both sides of the road \u2014 which must have provided more illumination than the video would lead one to believe.\nWere the contrast and brightness settings on the footage modified before it was released, to make the unfortunate woman less visible? Asking for a conspiracy theorist friend\u2026\nIn the 1920\u2019s and 30\u2019s, the automobile industry dealt with pedestrian deaths by lobbying politicians to criminalise normal behaviour, like crossing the public highway (i.e. \u2018jay-walking\u2019). No doubt with self driving cars, we\u2019ll be told its pedestrians fault if they do things like not behaving like the algorithms assumed human beings behave. I suspect that the fact that this woman was wheeling a bike with shopping bags on the handlebars confused the system on the car. The reaction will be to criminalise/delegitimize behaviour like this one way or another.\nAbout 7 years ago the Hells Angels booked pretty much an entire motel here for a weekend, maybe 196 of them descended upon town, and a Hells Angel that might\u2019ve been a 24 year old hellion in 1967, and was now closing in on Medicare entitlements, really didn\u2019t seem like much of a threat, but the coppers were taking no chances, and in response, there must\u2019ve been 197 of them from every police department in the area lurking around in a show of force that really wasn\u2019t necessary.\nA few gang members received jaywalking tickets-which is hilarious, in that the nearest set of stop lights is 20 miles away, ha!\nThe Asia Times article makes a profound error when it says:\n\u201cA glance at the intersection where Uber\u2019s vehicle killed Ms. Herzberg tells the whole story.\u201d\nMs. Herzberg was killed several hundred feet south of the intersection pictured in the article. She was crossing from the north-east leg of the , from west to east, at a point near overhead streetlights on both sides of northbound North Mill Ave.\nHere in AZ, advocates for walking and cycling refer to those ultra-wide streets as traffic sewers.\nThat\u2019s James Kunstler\u2019s term (see Home from Nowhere, etc.)\nIn the video on Wired, you can see her white shoes moving at 2 seconds, she gets hit at 4 seconds. The left lane is empty. While a driver might not have avoided hitting her entirely, there is plenty of time and space to swerve left, which would have been the first human instinct along with slamming the brakes. No unimpaired human would just continue plowing straight ahead. In fact, she\u2019s partially across the car\u2019s lane at 3 seconds, and moving fairly quickly in the opposite direction from the instinctive swerve. On becoming aware of the swerving vehicle, she may have dropped the bike and jumped out of the way.\nAs an aside, \u201csafe following distance\u201d is considered to be 2 \u2013 3 seconds, depending on speed and conditions, presumably because a human driver can be expected to react in that amount of time. As I said, the accident may not have been avoided entirely, but it may not have been fatal.\nThe \u201csafety driver\u201d is looking down and to the right, exactly as, I would imagine, a right-handed person who is texting while driving would be doing.\nAgree with Wired\u2013exactly the kind of accident self-driving cars are intended to avoid.\nHenry Moon Pie March 22, 2018 at 11:00 am\nWhen self-driving vehicles are offered for sale to the public, I predict that they will not be these cute little subcompacts that are being used in live testing now. They will be Hummer-like with extra armor all around and an old-fashioned \u201ccow catcher\u201d like those used on steam locomotives. The manufacturers will want them to appear safe to potential purchasers, so they will be built to protect the safety of those inside while crunching and throwing to the side whatever they hit.\nOne question I have related to poor Ms. Herzberg\u2019s death: what would a robot car do in the event it struck someone and there was no backup human on board? From the behavior of the Uber car, the plan seems to be that they will commit hit and run.\nAt the high end, they are likely to be in luxury cars first. Think Mercedes S class or Cadillac Escalade\ndjrichard March 22, 2018 at 1:30 pm\nThere was no other traffic around, and nothing to obstruct the sensors\u2019 view of Herzberg. The Volvo XC90s that Uber is using for development are equipped with cameras, radar and lidar sensors. The radar and lidar are capable of \u201cseeing\u201d their surroundings in complete darkness and should have easily detected Herzberg\u2019s presence in the roadway anywhere from 150 feet to 300 feet away or more depending on the types of sensors that Uber is using.\nI was only curious on this bit, so didn\u2019t read the rest of the article. So the lede may be of interest too.\nThis is a total failure of the LiDAR and imaging systems which should have been able to detect an incoming human.\nThe exception of course is if your self driving car system doesn\u2019t have a LiDAR system. HINT Tesla\u2019s autopilot does not:\nAn Infrared backup would also have lit up a human. It seems to me that this technology is super immature.\nAnother big issue is the design of the road. There are very few crosswalks. The whole design of the road system screws over pedestrians and bicyclists.\nRE: The failure of the Lidar system to detect Ms. Herzberg\nWhen a traditional, driver-operated vehicle has a mechanical malfunction that causes or contributes to an accident, fault is usually apportioned to one or more of the following: the driver (for failing to correct a known issue); the mechanic (for failure to diagnose or correct an issue) or the manufacturer (for producing a defective product).\nWhich is why it seems odd in this case that the police have been so quick to declare that Uber probably isn\u2019t at fault in this case. The Lidar system that Uber installed failed. Its failure caused the vehicle to hit and kill a person. How can Uber not be at fault?\nMaybe people will be required to have a chip inserted in them as part of their right to use public streets. At their own expense of course and defense contractors will profit, just like they do now to give people transportation cards to drive trucks and boats.\nThink of the tracking abilities.\nIsn\u2019t that what smart phones are for?\nSome people are not so reliable.\nThey lose their phones from time to time.\nwhine country March 22, 2018 at 2:50 pm\n\u201cDon\u2019t people have eyes \u2013 that pedestrian was easy to see\u2026\u201d \u2013 Of course people have eyes but your statement made me curious why you raise the question as to the vehicle and not the victim. I watched the video several times carefully and, while it is not absolutely clear, my eyes did not see the victim ever look at the car. Indeed, it appeared to me at impact she was still unaware of the vehicle. Maybe my viewpoint is unpopular but are we to believe that our laws provide that the victim can be blameless when crossing a road at night and not even looking for vehicular traffic?\nWatch the video again. She looked right at the vehicle.\nReminds me of a (possibly apocryphal) anecdote I saw somewhere: In 1905 there were two automobiles in the entire state of Arizona.

Can\u2019t remember where I first read that Cambridge Analytica\u2019s parent company had a contract with the State Department, but have been waiting for more details to emerge. This is a good start.\nThe description of the company\u2019s role in Ukraine reminded me about a State Department program called TechCamp, launched under Secretary Clinton, that supposedly was teaching young people in Ukraine and other target countries how to use social media to become \u201ccitizen journalists.\u201d There\u2019s a video somewhere (I\u2019ll try to find it) of a member of the Ukraine parliament warning that TechCamp was a cover for organizing protests against the Yanukovich government. He made that speech the day before the first protesters arrived at Independence Square in Kiev in what became known as Euromaidan. (Who can forget the images of Victoria Nuland passing out cookies, or the infamous \u201cF\u2014 the EU\u201d phone call with Ambassador Pyatt?)\nOnce you start going down that path, connecting the dots becomes a full-time job.\n3.14e-9 March 22, 2018 at 1:13 pm\nHere\u2019s the link. I think it\u2019s in Russian, as I vaguely recall seeing a version in which the translation included demands by other members that he speak in Ukrainian. Undoubtedly there are NC readers who know. In any case, there\u2019s a translation below the video.\nIn short, the speaker says there\u2019s clear evidence that the U.S. Embassy in Kiev is directly participating in preparations for a civil war in Ukraine, and that a TechCamp the previous week trained specialists in information warfare to discredit Ukraine government institutions using modern media. From the transcript:\nAmerican instructors explained how social networks and Internet technologies \u2026 can be used for targeted manipulation of public opinion \u2026 as well as to activate protest potential \u2026 to provoke violent unrest on the territory of Ukraine.\nThe speaker asks for an investigation by the Parliament.\nI wonder if they used Facebook.\nEver notice in news reports, that when they talk with foreigners and they want to put a pro-western slant on it, they use pretty young girls but if they are not, then they talk to women in their fifties and sixties? Case in point. Remember the \u201cI am Ukrainian\u201d () video back in 2014? Millions saw it. And that is how you package propaganda.\nIn case anybody wondered what happened to her, last I heard \u201cIn July 2015 Mikheil Saakashvili, Governor of Odessa, announced that Yulia Marushevska accepted a job as Deputy Head of the Odessa Regional State Administration. According to Mikheil Saakashvili Yulia Marushevska had previously spent a year of training at Harvard and Stanford universities\u201d. A year later she got the boot for corruption.\nShe got the boot for corruption? That\u2019s rich:\nStrange, though, that the author of that Politico hit piece, an Atlantic Council fellow, fails to mention that Saakashvili met with Obama and Biden at the White House in January 2012, and that he was paying the Podesta Group to lobby for him in Washington.\nSounds like Yulia was lucky to get out when she did.\nRegarding the Results of Longitudinal in France Regarding Allies\u2019 Relative Contributions to WWII Victory over Germany\nI can\u2019t help but be reminded of this video illustrating the death toll \u2014 military and civilian \u2014 of the various participants in World War II. When it gets to showing the casualties of Germany and the Soviet Union, the columns on the chart just shoot up by an order of magnitude.\nI think the May 1945 results are the closest to the reality. The ones since just show how effective American war movies and other forms of cultural persuasion can be.\nvlade March 22, 2018 at 12:02 pm\nThe problem with this is that USSR was in the early years extremely profilgate with the lives of its soldiers. Majority of USSR casualties happened in 1941 and 42, and even that was highly concentrated around the invasion and the unsucessfull USSR offensives in early 42 (there was actually a third period, battle of Berlin, but that was driven by the USSR generals fighting who would take the price first at the cost of the lives of their men).\nThis, amongst the others, led the \u201chuman wave\u201d myth of USSR fighting \u2013 which is just that, a myth. My favourite here is say operation Bagration, where USSR attacked pre-prepared defenses, with 1.5:1 advantage (the initial advantage was higher, close to 4:1, but overall the battle was then spread across large areas), and had something like 2:1 losses. Compare to say IwoJima, where US had 5:1 advantage, and took about 1.5:1 losses.\nThe reality is that the USSR army became very capital intensive in 43 and onwards, as the manpower become much more scarce even for USSR.\nAnd, that capital intensivness could not have happened w/o Lend-Lease. Not so much tanks and planes, but the basics of materiel \u2013 ammunition, copper, TNT, cars (Studbakers were what the Soviet army run on), spam etc.\nAlso,LL helped to free a lot of USSR manpower to the front (yes, I know about how women and children made the tanks.. but they still could not arm and the army by their own).\nSo, the realistic \u2013 and most serious WW2 historians that have no skin on either side, agree on that \u2013 is that w/o USSR fighting, and US supplying the goods, the war would have looked otherwise. It\u2019s _possible_ USSR would have won anyways w/o LL, and it\u2019s _possible_ US would have won even with USSR going out of the fight. But both outcomes are not given by a long stretch.\nSo, a simple message really is \u2013 they had to work together to succeed, and if they did not, chances are we would have a diffeernt world than we have now. Call it 50:50 split between USSR and USA, and I think you won\u2019t be far off (of course, in terms of human sacrifice the story is elsewhere, but then your\u2019d be really looking at Belorus, not USSR, if you want to talk human sacrifices of WW2).\nWhile the UK can claim a few important contributions to the war, it\u2019s really dubious whether it would, in the end, achieve more than a few single-digit contributions. Yes, Enigma was important \u2013 but not war-winning. Yes, serving as Landing Strip One/Staging Area One was important, but again.. US convoys could have run to Murmansk from Island, and arguably that could have been safer than from the UK (as that put them close to Norway\u2019s airfields). Lots of heroics on the UK\u2019s side, but not a critical war-effort contribution I\u2019d say.\nAmerica\u2019s contribution to the war is like Canada\u2019s on D-Day.\nSignificant, needed, heroic, not to be forgotten.\nAnd also not even close to half the lifting.\n20 million civilian, 7 million military. Officially. Russia won the war, America and England helped, and Canada, Australia, and New Zealand got their hands dirty and deserve to be mentioned.\nvlade March 22, 2018 at 3:58 pm\nIf you insist on counting the war contribution by country\u2019s dead, then you\u2019d split your winners between China and USSR, as China lost pretty much as many people as USSR did. The \u201cofficial\u201d count might be lower (as much as by half), but that tends to ignore the inability to get any good numbers out of China at the time, and the real count is likely to be well north of 20m. Especially if you take into account that for Chinese, WW2 really started in early 1930s, half a decade before the rest of the world gave a toss.\nOr, just because of majority of these were uneducated chinese peasants, it doesn\u2019t count compared to heroic Soviets?\nPeople tend to not even know (so I won\u2019t dignify by by saying \u201cforget\u201d), that India lost >2m people, current Indonesia (then Dutch East Indies)>4m, Phillipines >1m and French Indochina (principally current day Vietnam) > 1.5m over WW2. Only Poland (@5m people), lost more with the exception of the principal combatants of Germany/Japan/USSR.\nsteelyman March 23, 2018 at 7:09 pm\nNo, it\u2019s got nothing to do with an overall body count. It has to do with the established historical fact that over 70% of the Wehrmacht casualties in WW2 were inflicted by the Russian armed forces.\nLend lease was important \u2013 it wasn\u2019t the most important factor. One of the key reasons that the Russians won the battles in the East wasn\u2019t just based on superior numbers. They had some of the best generals of the war on their side. They often out fought their German opponents and the German WW2 generals fighting on the eastern Front were no slouches themselves.\nBack to lend lease and hardware: please note the T34, one of the key weapons in the Russian victory, was made in USSR not the USA.\nPlutoniumKun March 22, 2018 at 1:04 pm\nI think that\u2019s a fair assessment, there are too many \u2018ifs\u2019 in the war to make a definitive judgement. The gigantic Soviet loss of life was of course at least partly due to the reality that most of the war took place on their soil.\nAnother issue though is the quality of the armies facing each other. The Germans devoted their very best units to the Eastern Front, as they had little or no choice. The Allies did make quite a meal out of the Battle of Italy and the assault across Europe despite facing relatively few elite units \u2013 most of the defending German army was fairly second rate and poorly equipped by comparison to the units on the Eastern Front. Its hard to see how D-Day and the subsequent offensives would have succeeded if they\u2019d faced the top German divisions with a full complement of Tigers and Panthers.\nOf course, the other side is that the Soviets were no help at all to the US in the Pacific or in China, when they could have made a significant difference if they\u2019d seriously pressed the Japanese in Manchuria and China or attempted sea assaults on closer Japanese islands.\nI think it was the historian Norman Davies who has argued that there wasn\u2019t a single war 1939-1945, there were two separate major wars \u2013 the US/Japanese battle for the Pacific and the Soviet/Nazi battle for control of the heart of Europe \u2013 along with a series of relatively minor overlapping regional conflicts (including the campaigns in Western Europe and North Africa), which extended from the Japanese invasion of Manchuria (1931) to the end of the Malayan Emergency around 1960.\nFor a slice of the action on the eastern front whilst in the Wehrmacht, I highly recommend \u2018The Forgotten Soldier\u201d by Guy Sajer, a Frenchman of Alsatian descent.\nYes, it\u2019s hard to compare death and destruction on one hand and industrial production on the other. I think the general judgement of historians today is that, after the Wehrmacht failed to bring the Red Army down in a few months (some would say October, some December 1941) they had basically lost, because they didn\u2019t have access to the raw materials they needed. After that, the Russians were bound to win eventually, but without the equipment supplied by the US, it would have taken quite a bit longer.\nBut the sheer scale of the war, and the losses, were frightening. Richard Overy quotes the statistic that 85% of all the young men born between 1920 and 1922 were killed or wounded in the War. Since not all were in military service, that means just about everybody.\nIncidentally, for those (like me) fascinated by this subject, I\u2019d warmly recommend Chris Bellamy\u2019s \u201cAbsolute War\u201d, published recently, which broadly echoes the kind of comments vlade was making, and demonstrates that one reason the Russians won was because the Red Army learned very fast from its defeats, and by the end of the war was at least as good a fighting machine as the Wehrmacht (Bagration, for example). .\nWhether Germany would have lost or won after end of 41 depends very much on what the USA was doing. If USA was doing nothing, Germany would still have a fighting chance \u2013 by then it controlled Donbas with its ore and coal reserves, and wheat from Ukraine. The problem wasn\u2019t by then so much resources as exploiting them, where Germans for ideological reasons couldn\u2019t do it efficiently (as in it was slave labour or pure Germans \u2013 first inefficient, second lacking).\nW/o LL, USSR would have real trouble organising Uranus and Saturn, as logistics of that were extremely trying \u2013 huge amounts of men and materiel to be moved in trying conditions. That means that battle of Staligrad might have been lost, instead of won \u2013 or at least not won so conclusively (by destruction of the 6th army). Same goes for Citadel/Kursk later in 43.\nThat said, as you say, one of the main things in WW2 is that Stalin was willing to learn and have Red Army to apply the learned (I\u2019d not call it fast, it took Stalin until early 43 to internalise the problems from early 42), while Hitler wasn\u2019t, and thought it was divine providence acting through him, in good or bad.\nBut you had the same with US Army, when they got whipped badly at Kasserine, which British fully expected, given the US Army unwilingness to learn from their (British) experience fighting Axis. It took all the way to Normandy to start learning those lessons, and one can say that the earliest they put them in practice was really Battle of the Bulge, which was a wee bit late.\nIt seems most of the militaries took at least a year to organise themselves to fight properly. The Germans learned a lot in the Spanish Civil War and in invading Poland. The Japanese in their long vicious war in China/Manchuria. The French never got a chance to learn their lesson. The US had the luxury of strategic depth so, as you say, could learn from Kasserine and from its early Pacific disasters. Britain had less strategic depth, but still had the Channel as a buffer so its loss in France wasn\u2019t a complete catastrophe. From what I know, its still something of a mystery as to why the Russians put up such a weak fight early in the invasion, I\u2019ve seen all sorts of explanations. But they did learn fast \u2013 they\u2019d also learned a little from their successful clashes with the Japanese on the Mongolian border (the Japanese learned from that not to pick a fight with the Soviets).\n>when they could have made a significant difference if they\u2019d seriously pressed the Japanese in Manchuria and China or attempted sea assaults on closer Japanese islands.\nHmmm but isn\u2019t that exactly what the US didn\u2019t want? Anyway those ideas take resources, and it\u2019s hard to pull troops away from your own front, even when you have \u201cturned the tide\u201d so to speak.\nActually, Roosevelt begged Stalin to fight in the Far East. Stalin promised that the Soviets would attack Japan 90 days after whenever the Germans surrendered. The Soviets did so, to the day. The Japanese surrendered a day or two later.\nMost of the Japanese military was in China, unable to get back to Japan because the US controlled the sea and air. So the Soviet contribution in the Far East was meaningful even if quite late in the game.\nThis is also why Korea was split in two.\nThere is an important lecture by US military historian Ltc (ret) David Glantz on the Soviet invasion of Manchuria aka August Storm and the military operations it conducted against the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces .\nThe link is at:\nThe Soviet-German War, 1941-1945: Myths and Realities \u2013 YouTube \u2014\nThere is also a book by Glantz still available on Amazon called August Storm.\nGlantz\u2019s conclusion \u2013 the Soviet army was capable of conducting large scale military operations of massive scale and breathtaking intensity and that it pretty much destroyed the Japanese military in Manchuria within a couple of weeks.\nThis view supports my notion that it wasn\u2019t lend lease, \u201chuman waves\u201d, cavalier treatment of enlisted men, \u201cbrutal Commies\u201d or whatever anti-Russian Soviet meme the West can come up with, but superior strategic, tactical and logistical skill (especially after 1943) that led to Russian victory against the Nazis and their allies.\nIf the purpose of war is the destruction of your opponents armies then in Europe that goal was attained primarily by the efforts of the Russians/USSR armies. Some of that success can be attributed to the materiel supplied by Lend Lease but the latter tends to be largely overrated by pro-Western historians.\nRe Vlade below, by the time of the great tank battles of Kursk, the Russian army was defeating the Germans with mechanized divisions fully fitted out with T34 tanks not the US Sherman via Lend Lease, a truly second rate main battle tank despite the efforts of Brad Pitt and the Hollywood establishment to convince us otherwise. In fact, the T34 already appears on the Eastern Front in sizeable numbers as early as the Battle of Brody in 1941 and gave the German tank commanders a very nasty surprise!\nCan\u2019t recall the model numbers offhand but I strongly suspect the Russian air armies that controlled the battlefield air space by 1942-43 were also outfitted with Russian made planes.\nCrudely paraphrasing the opening scene from the movie Patton, the contribution the Soviet Union made is not measured by the number of Soviets who died for their country, but by the number of Germans they made die for theirs.\nI don\u2019t have the numbers right at hand, but by that measure too, most of WW2 in Europe was on the Eastern Front.\nThe Lend Lease program was crucial earlier on, while the Soviets were just holding on. When the big, ultimately victorious counter-attacks came, it was the Soviet production itself that made the difference. Amazing numbers of military equipment. A lot (but not all) low quality, but such quantities. Not a human wave but a machine wave.\nEtherpuppet March 23, 2018 at 5:44 pm\nMateriel was definitely a growing problem for German beginning in \u201942 and beyond, contributing to the machine wave you mention. This primarily compares armored vehicles in the latter half of the war.\nLater German tanks (Panther, Tiger, etc.) were troublesome, mechanically, for several reasons. There was often a shortage of spare parts. Engines/transmissions were insufficient for tank weight and broke down often. Training of repair/service depot personnel was sub-par. Additionally, several later tank designs were complex and not really suited for easy maintenance. Additionally, tanks that broke down in the field were less recoverable in the latter part of the war, as the Germans were retreating. When you are retreating, your broken-but-fixable vehicles are overrun and captured by the enemy advance before you can recover them. More tanks were lost due to mechanical issues than through enemy action.\nContrast this to the Allies, while using potentially inferior or average tanks, who had stacks of spare parts, a logistics system that delivered reasonably well, and vehicles that were generally easier to service.\nWoke up this morning listening to the river raging as I lounged in the hot tub, like it was in full spring meltoff mode, as the pineapple express storm seems to have melted off most snow from 9k on down in a classic example of an atmospheric river on high.

[Later] the attorney general acknowledged he had met the Russian ambassador twice during the presidential campaign, but insisted none of those interactions were \u201cto discuss issues of the campaign.\u201d\nMcCabe authorized the criminal inquiry after a top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont, and then-Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., wrote a letter in March 2017 to the FBI urging agents to investigate \u201call s\u201d Sessions may have had with Russians, and \u201cwhether any laws were broken in the course of those s or in any subsequent discussion of whether they occurred.\u201d\nCongressional committees have full authority to investigate alleged perjury and to issue a criminal referral to the Justice Dept if the committee determines that perjury occurred.\nBut the committee did no such thing. Senator Leahy is not even the ranking minority member of the Senate Judiciary committee \u2014 that would be Dianne Feinstein.\nIt seems to be a rather cheeky violation of protocol for the FBI to start investigating the attorney general based on a letter from a couple of Senators. But it\u2019s emblematic of the lengths to which the intel/FBI shadow government is prepared to go in pursuit of its own agenda.\nAn observer from Mars might also discern some disparate treatment concerning the FBI\u2019s treatment of candidate Hillary Clinton \u2014 who mishandled classified material and destroyed documents demanded by Congress \u2014 versus Sessions who seems to have done some awkward lawyerly parsing of the facts. Bill Clinton, the acknowledged master, coulda helped Jeff with that. :-)\nC\u2019mon he \u201cdid not inhale\u201d or \u201chave sex with that woman.\u201d What\u2019s shifty about that?\nIt\u2019s quite unprecedented, at least for me, to see a president, let along the incoming (then), sitting (now) one, being investigated for collusion with an officially undeclared enemy, and treason, and his attorney general tailed by his subordinates, cops in the FBI, among other unprecedented acts, right before us.\nOf course, we were forewarned by someone, perhaps a member from that side \u2013 Schumer, about six ways from Sunday they can get to the Swamp Drainer (or would be Swamp Drainer).\nDoes he have enough say, among them, to tell them to lay off his friend, Sanders?\nDoes he not have enough pull, but with enough knowledge of how things work, that he tipped off Sanders on where not to go with Our Revolution? That would have made it \u2018You can go this way, but not way revolution.\u2019\nThe Perfect Oil Field Oily Stuff (Joe Costello).\nThe Middle East was blessed/cursed with the most perfect geology possible for oil. Not just the oil structures itself, but the convenient protected sea to allow its easy transport worldwide. Nothing else comes close in the world.\nEven if and when the Big One, the Ghawar Field in Saudi Arabia, starts depleting, it will still be producing huge amounts of oil at a price a fraction of US Tight Oil, Canadian tar sands, or Brazilian off-shore. More than enough for the world to use if we had sensible transport policies (and sensible pricing for such a precious product).\nThe influx of debt fuelled fracked tight oil has created an enormous distortion in the market, delaying the essential transition away from liquid fuels, and will only leave us a legacy of massive malinvestment. Its ironic that environmentalists are really trying to save oil investors from themselves, a ban on fracking and oil sand extraction and off-shore in sensitive environments would not cripple the world economy, it would allow it to maintain itself sustainably. Capitalism eats itself, and us while its at it.\nStephen tried to warn us; \u201cStephen Hawking Warns About The Greatest Threat To Humanity: Capitalism\u201d.\nOh that is a comical link. \u201cPats little Stevie Hawking on the head, \u2018Don\u2019t worry about stuff you don\u2019t understand, son\u2019 Everything will be fine. This time, for sure!\u201d.\nShale has me confused. I don\u2019t follow it as closely as I should but I also suspect that getting to the truth is difficult. Shale was uneconomical at today\u2019s prices not so long ago with a few exceptions. The producers were shackled with billions upon billions of debt. Now we have inched back above sixty after a long spell below and are being told all is well and production will soar. I don\u2019t buy it.\nWhen I read about production costs for shale and the price of WTI, I cringe. Quality differentials aside, shale simple costs a fortune to get to the buyer. Bakken costs a minimum of $10 a barrel to rail to the coast. This does not include local shipping to the train racks. I don\u2019t think $100 is the break-even, but I also don\u2019t think it\u2019s $65 considering none of this included the financing costs.\nIf oil drops again, and OPEC does not control things despite the press (OPEC is looking good because of Iraq, Nigeria and Libya, all of who are underproducing for reasons unrelated to OPEC quotas), Wall Street is going to have to get bailed out of the oil patch.\nI need to look into this some more. If anyone can point me to some good sources on the costs of shale production, I would be thankful.\nTight shale is \u201ceconomic\u201d given one important input factor: free money.\nSo I suggest you start your research with one A. Greenspan, then a Mr. B. Bernanke, followed by a certain J. Yellen.\nThe costs of shale oil production are something of a mystery to everyone. Plenty of producers claim to be profitable anywhere between $40-60 a barrel, but I really don\u2019t know if they achieve those figures by discounting past investment and transport costs. I think a lot of producers fudge average and marginal costs when they make their claims. There is though little doubt that they have succeeded in reducing the costs very significantly from around 2010, when they probably needed well in excess of $80 to be in any sort of profit.\nGaianne March 22, 2018 at 7:07 pm\nPlutoniumK\u2013\nThe Ghawar oil field has been in gentle decline for over a decade\u2013since 2005. All the recent machinations of Saudi policy and politics arise out of this fact.\nNo, this will never be in the media. But plenty of petroleum geologists have posted about it. And Matt Simmons, a petroleum banker, wrote a book accurately predicting it back in 2004 called \u201cTwilight in the Desert\u201d.\n\u2013Gaianne\nI was in Saudi two years ago talking to the Aramco management. They said the IPO would go forward but they did not understand how since they really did not think the top management and the royal family could or would release the reserve figures. Saudi has had a very large percentage of the worlds exploration wells over the past decade, not something one does if,as they claim, Ghawar could be opened up wide and pump out another 3 to 5 million bpd.\nAramco should have IPO\u2019d at $130 but, of course, they did not think they needed to up there. Now at 60 they are desperate. Oil is not dead, but it is fading. Fifteen years ago, even at 40, Saudi probably could have IPO\u2019d without releasing confirmed reserves. But the future of oil is short. There are some really big events coming up.\n2020 IMO switch to 0.5% bunkers is killing HSFO and therefore heavy sour crudes. There are not enough resid crackers to soak up the excess and runs will have to be cut or switched to lighter, sweeter crudes.\nEurope is moving toward banning gasoline and diesel, the latter altogether. While there will be a switch to gasoline, it is not the answer to oil\u2019s prayers. A paradigm shift is on the way for public and private transportation. This is 15 to 30 year stuff, not 23rd century.\nhmm, I think I will go out and dump my own oil shares.\nyan March 22, 2018 at 8:56 am\nRe: \u201cEpic Games with Sweeney\u201d\nThis is straight out of Neal Stephenson\u2019s \u201cThe Age of Diamond\u201d.\nCalypsoFacto March 22, 2018 at 3:57 pm\nThis is the actress that was our subject \u2013 we made a digital clone of her \u2014 the actress we\u2019re going to use at the Vicon booth to drive the character\u2019s digital body.

That turned a few heads in the waiting room. From there on it was all very good, madam, and please make yourself comfortable here and would you like tea, madam. It was the first time since she and her mother had left home that anyone had offered her tea, instead of ordering her to make some, and she knew perfectly well it would be the last time for several years, even if she got lucky.\nThe tat machine worked on her for sixteen hours; they dripped Valium into her arm so she wouldn\u2019t whine.

Spain says that it doesn\u2019t.\nThis suggests that unless Britain is willing to let its citizens on \u201cthe rock\u201d be subject to an inferior economic future than those in the UK, the EU has in effect handed the Spanish government a veto on Britain\u2019s entire future relationship with the bloc.\nA senior UK source with knowledge of EU negotiations said the clause was extraordinary because it effectively signalled a lack of total British sovereignty over Gibraltar. It gave Spain a greater say over the future of Gibraltar than the British government was likely to be willing to accept, the source said.\nAnother senior UK source with knowledge of both the EU and Whitehall said the government was not surprised to see the reference to Gibraltar in the document because it would have been a key demand from Spain, but suggested it was ominous.\nOn the Spanish side, Esteban Gonz\u00e1lez Pons, the vice-chair of the European People\u2019s party, told El Pa\u00eds newspaper that May\u2019s failure to mention Gibraltar in the letter on Wednesday was \u201cvery relevant\u201d, adding that the omission was \u201cbecause Gibraltar isn\u2019t part of the United Kingdom; it\u2019s a colony like the island of St Helena\u201d.\nAh but \u2018taking back control\u2019. Its a pity nobody told the Brexiters that they had handed over an effective veto over numerous areas of domestic policy to any EU country with an axe to grind.\nIts taken its time, but it was always predictable that at some stage of the negotiations the political problems would shift from the UK and Brussels, to any individual EU country with specific trade or other issues. The Spanish were always likely to be one of those countries, not just because of Gibraltar, but also fishing and health (i.e. paying for British retirees) interests. But there are numerous other potential problems that can and will arise, especially when the UK starts trying to negotiate its own trade deals while maintaining some sort of open trade links with the EU.\nTo my knowledge, so far, the UK must reach an agreement with Ireland and with Spain before the definitive agreement with the EU. Will May be able to handle it?\nYou mean roll over when the finall call comes? She has managed it so far.\nI now do wonder whether the hard-core Brexisters aren\u2019t just full of hot air, but will allow May to roll over on anything of importance \u2013 which will give them an axe to grind for years to come, as the UK staggers from one \u201cvasal\u201d state to another (state as in quantum state, not as a sovereign state).\nWe know they are like the dogs who hate to catch the car, so now they are working pretty hard to get it going again so that they can have a good life barking at it.\nIf I\u2019m to understand from Goves statements, the message to the hard Brexiters has been \u2018keep the eye on the prize\u2019 \u2013 in other words, swallow a bad transition deal, in exchange for a cleaner break in 2020. I\u2019m actually surprised at how quiet they\u2019ve been, which leads me to think that the Brexit paymasters are content with this compromise. They probably at some level know that there isn\u2019t enough time to prevent Brexit collapsing into chaos, so they will see this as buying time so that they can cut the cords with the EU when they see fit.\nOh, but they are saying that a clean break is possible now \u2013 and TBH, how can be a total break any cleaner in two years time than now?\nI can see why EU wants a transition \u2013 it want to give the companies as much time to move out of the UK (IIRC, I saw somewhere that every seventh EU company is now moving it\u2019s supply chain entirely out of the UK, give it two years and it will be closer to a half at least). But for Brexiters who think they would get the WTO option (whatever that would actually mean), no transition is needed.\nIf any hard border is avoided during the transition period, the Irish government will sign up to it \u2013 Varadkar seems to be aiming for an election in late this year or early next year, so all he cares about is ensuring no border issues for the next 24 months. His relatively good handling of the issue has been very popular in Ireland so he will be trying to ride that wave of relative success.

The line to the public would have been: \u201cit\u2019s going to cost us something, so all hands on deck\u201d \u2013 Churchillian, if possible. The whole intent would have been to minimize EU leverage, and therefore the importance of the Irish or Spanish vetoes. And a back-channel negotiation with Ireland \u2013 there still isn\u2019t any real solution to that one without a customs border in the Irish Sea. That\u2019s why NI voted against Brexit. Gibraltar has been besieged before. The huge financial overage in the City they had no way to keep, nor is it really beneficial, but it would have taken at least a Corbyn to say so and act accordingly.\nInstead, Britain got exactly what you\u2019d expect from people who don\u2019t believe in what they\u2019re doing, nor in the alternatives that could exist.\nPersonally, and from a long way away, I think they had it right with the Common Market and made a huge mistake in trying to turn it into a single country. In the process, they forfeit the administrative and political advantages of small countries and create all the difficulties of a hodge-podge. Plus, they built it around neo-liberalism, so when that fails the whole concept fails. In the bigger picture, Britain might have been smart to bail and go back to the Common Market stage \u2013 if that were what they did.\nmakedoanmend March 22, 2018 at 11:01 am\nBut isn\u2019t this a preferable outcome from the EU negotiating standpoint, i.e. having European countries make objections to various clauses of the interim agreement rather than having had the UK being able to pit EU countries against each other over various issues?\nThere may well be an element of thinking in Brussels that they don\u2019t want to be seen as the party who drove the hardest bargain. In other words, if, say, Spain vetoed the agreement, Barnier, etc., can say \u2018well, we did our best, but the EU is a democracy, we can\u2019t stop them doing that\u2019. Ultimately, nobody really wants to be the one who is seen as having the knife in their hand at the crucial moment.\nI reckon the EU plan is to place the knife in the UK\u2019s hand so that it is seen to be the country responsible for a crash-out Brexit if that is what happens. It seems to me the thinking is to present the UK with a choice: crash-out or \u2018the deal\u2019.\nPerhaps I can take some ideas out for a little walk, to use Stephen Fry\u2019s phrase? Alternative thoughts most welcome.\nIf I have got my thinking straight, it seems to me \u2018the deal\u2019 offered would be a CETA style FTA but with Northern Ireland (and in present circumstances the rest of the UK) having to comply with much of the single market legislation and customs union tariffs without having the benefits of single market membership (so potentially checks on goods at the Channel and Low Country ports even though the goods are produced in compliance with single market rules significant restrictions on provision of services cross-border). This of course is a bad deal for the UK but is what the UK\u2019s red lines and the Good Friday Agreement seem to dictate. So the choice presented to the UK will be crash-out or a lousy deal.\nNB \u2013 having to comply with single market and customs rules surely makes the vaunted freedom to negotiate new trade deals with e.g. the US almost worthless, as the UK would pretty much have to say \u2013 we would like improved terms from you but we can\u2019t really offer anything in return.\nAt that point the EU may remind the UK that the EEA/EFTA route could be a possibility if it was to drop some of its red lines. And of course, so would continued EU membership (at a price, now).\nOr have I got something wrong?\nI note the FT headline writers are now terming crash-out as \u2018full Brexit\u2019. Trying not to panic the readership?\nI\u2019m behind in my reading now, I haven\u2019t caught up with the latest text. I\u2019m quite confused by some of the reporting. From what I can see, the EU hasn\u2019t moved on from stating that a CETA only deal is possible. I think any kind of EEA/EFTA deal is highly problematic, not least because nobody has consulted the Norwegians and Icelanders yet, and they have their own issues with a UK membership. And EEA/EFTA doesn\u2019t solve the Northern Ireland border either, as it doesn\u2019t cover agriculture.\nMy feeling is that there seems to be a consensus on both sides of the table that a hard Brexit is near certain, but its better for all parties that it occurs in 2021, not next March, so they are simply postponing most of the key decisions.\nI agree that, from now on, Brussels wants the inevitable crises to come between the UK and other nations rather than the UK and the EU. Such crises are pragmatically easier to manage, and I suspect that the Spanish and the UK will be front and centre. I suspect also that the Spanish have been asked to back off for a bit to avoid getting Gibraltar mixed up with NI. The UK is likely in fact, to be hit by a series of crises one after, and will probably wind up agreeing to more or less everything.\nRe: Border Collies:\nMutual assured destruction [from Bloomberg link above]:\n\u201cTomorrow the president will announce the actions he has decided to take based on USTR\u2019s 301 investigation into China\u2019s state-led, market-distorting efforts to steal U.S. technologies and intellectual property,\u201d White House official Raj Shah said in an emailed statement on Wednesday.\nThe president is considering targeting more than 100 different types of Chinese goods.\n\u201cChina is not afraid, nor will it dodge a trade war,\u201d Wei Jianguo said. \u201cWe have plenty of measures to fight back, in areas of automobile imports, soybean, aircraft and chips.

And surprisingly, even though debt is going up and up and up, we didn\u2019t find the interest or debt service rising. So we called up the Bureau of Economic Analysis that publishes the GDP statistics. I asked what happens when the credit card companies make more money on penalties than they make in interest. When you miss a payment on your debt (this is before you go to prison) and you can\u2019t pay the electric bill or a credit card bill, your rate goes up from 11 percent to 29 percent.\nThe answer they gave us was: \u201cThat\u2019s not interest. We count that as a financial service, and financial services are an addition to GDP.\u201d So all the added penalties that people pay for falling behind in their debts for arrears are counted as a growth in GDP \u2013 as economic growth!\nDebtors are now our Domestic Product.\nRenoDino March 22, 2018 at 12:08 pm\nThanks for the link.

Even if you have a valid visa, this does not automatically give a right to travel within Europe. In practice of course there are few if any controls stopping them, but without this right they may face all sorts of restrictions for work or, for example, if they need medical care.\nAlso, a visa for entry is a right to enter at a port or other entrypoint, not an absolute right to cross any border.

In fact, I ran across this gem in late 2016 while searching for information on the Russian\u2019s alleged hacking of a Vermont utility.**\nU.S. Govt. Hackers Ready to Hit Back If Russia Tries to Disrupt Election\nAn interview on PBS Newshour last week confirmed as much. I couldn\u2019t tell if the correspondent accidentally asked the right question, and while it seemed that the interview was about over anyway, it was interesting that the discussion ended after the commentator\u2019s detailed answer (starts around 3:20):\nSecond, this report is based on U.S. intelligence analysis and smells an awful lot like the laughable \u201cGrizzly Steppe\u201d report, which was summarily discredited by independent IT experts. Like that disaster, this report includes enough technobabble, flowcharts, sample code, etc., to make non-techie eyes glaze over in seconds. How would any average reader know whether it was valid? Maybe because the issuing agency has \u201ccomputer\u201d in its title, we\u2019re supposed to believe it\u2019s more trustworthy?\n** as reported by WaPo, which turned out to be fake news an honest error that journalists occasionally make in their courageous pursuit of the truth.\nLambert Strether,\nI\u2019ve written two replies to Expat\u2019s request for information on shale costs and both vanished. Are they available?\nTHE KREMLIN HACKED MY WEBSITE!\nRE: Russian cyber attacks on U.S. critical infrastructure, one more thing:\nAccording to the US-CERT report, the alleged Russian hackers are gaining access to websites by modifying JavaScript. This caught my attention, because that was apparently how hackers attacked my astrology blog back in 2014.\nMy blog was self-hosted using a third-party developer WordPress theme. In August 2014, I started receiving overage warnings from the hosting company. I couldn\u2019t understand why, as I wasn\u2019t posting nearly as much as in previous years and traffic was way down. Tech support said it wasn\u2019t their problem and that if I didn\u2019t fix it, my account would be suspended.\nI eventually managed to get someone who took the time to explain that, because I was using a theme that hadn\u2019t been updated in three years, it was a sitting duck for the brute force attacks that were rampant that summer. He said the point of access likely was through JavaScript, which was in some of the theme\u2019s plug-ins. He also directed me to logs where I could find out where the attacks were coming from. The vast majority were from Russia and China, with Russia accounting for over 50 percent.\nI\u2019d made a few predictions about Putin and joked that they must have wanted my trade secrets. If they were looking for anything, it probably was access to the PayPal account set up for site donations. Or, they might have been attacking my blog simply because it was vulnerable.\nSo, I\u2019ve got irrefutable proof of Russian hacking! They didn\u2019t get anything, but so what? The Kremlin attacked my website! And it had to have been under Putin\u2019s orders! Damn that guy, he cost me weeks of lost time migrating over to WordPress.com. I just wish he\u2019d done it sooner.\nIn any case, I know what those logs look like, and I don\u2019t recall having seen anything like that from the DNC. Anybody?\nLivius Drusus March 22, 2018 at 4:31 pm\nRe: Bernie on the real problem of inequality, well the mainstream media is increasingly adopting a tabloid business model. The New York Times has seen a growth in digital subscriptions and part of the reason for that recent success has been the coverage of the various sex scandals that have exploded recently.\nI grant that Harvey Weinstein was a major story and it is good to have a discussion about sexual harassment but it is obvious that the NYT has upped the salacious content of their paper by a huge margin. I often don\u2019t agree with the WSWS but they are spot on about how the NYT has made salacious sex stories their new bread and butter.\nThe NYT is not alone in this but I use that paper as an example of a supposedly venerable media institution transforming itself into something like the National Enquirer.

        "raw_content": "Airbnb Turns to Brussels for Help as Anti-Tourist Backlash Intensifies in Europe\nYves here. It is hard to see why Brussels would come to the rescue of Airbnb, since member states are in need of tax revenues, and AirBnB among other things hurts hoteliers who are taxed at particularly high rates. But Airbnb has nothing to lose by trying.\nBy Don Quijones of Spain, the UK, and Mexico and editor at Wolf Street. Originally published at\nAirbnb has a big problem on its hands in Europe, its most important market for listings. The region\u2019s bustling tourist destinations are growing increasingly disaffected with tourist rental property platforms as the cons of unfettered tourism \u2014 a squeezed housing market, surging rents, overcrowding, overstretched public services and infrastructure, and the erosion of the town or city\u2019s distinctive character \u2014 begin to heavily outweigh the pros.\nEven one of the supposed main benefits of mass tourism \u2014 job creation \u2014 is riddled with caveats. As a spokesman for a new campaign group, the Network of Southern European Cities in response to Mass Tourism, , \u201cthe tourist sectors of the hospitality and catering trade [in Spain] have the worst working conditions: low salaries, fraud in the number of hours declared in the contracts \u2014 when there are any \u2014 and outsourcing.\u201d\nAs summer approaches, the backlash is intensifying. On May 18th and 19th, two days of protest across 14 Southern European cities, including Barcelona, Venice, Seville, Palma, Lisbon, Malta andMadrid, all under the unified banner of \u201cStop the exploitation of our cities.\u201d\nIn Spain, the rise of \u201ctourism-phobia\u201d risks harming an industry that represents around 13% of the entire economy and has played a vital role in Spain\u2019s economic recovery, accounting for over a quarter of the new jobs created since 2013.\nIn the Balearic Islands, almost 40% of the new jobs created there since 2013 depend on tourism. But that didn\u2019t stop the islands\u2019 capital, Palma de Mallorca, Spain\u2019s eighth largest city by population, from on all tourist apartments last month.\nA week later, the government of Valencia, a region that includes many popular coastal resorts, proposed a that would restrict licenses for tourist rentals to ground-floor and first-floor apartments. If the law is passed, an estimated 65%-70% of the region\u2019s current tourist apartments would no longer be able to operate legally.\nIn even bigger markets such as Paris, Berlin and Barcelona, the problems are also stacking up. In Paris, Airbnb\u2019s second largest global destination, the authorities have against the company and two other firms for failing to respect local laws regulating holiday rental properties.\nBerlin, Airbnb\u2019s ninth most popular destination, has gone a step further by banning whole-home rentals outright, while preserving limited rights to rent out rooms within homes on a short-term basis. the Berlin Senate Department for Urban Development and Housing, the measure helped return 8,000 units to the city\u2019s long-term rental market, in the process deflating the city\u2019s rental housing bubble.\nAs for Barcelona, the home rental platform\u2019s sixth largest market, it will be watching developments in Palma and Valencia very closely. The City Council has been been locked in a three-year battle with Airbnb over unlicensed tourist apartments. In 2017 local residents went so far as to identify mass tourism as the biggest problem the city faces. Now, even in Madrid, a city that at first embraced the recent explosion in tourist arrivals, the Mayor\u2019s office is planning a response to the \u201cAirBnB effect.\u201d\nClearly, the overall trend in Europe is no longer Airbnb\u2019s friend. The constant growth in tourist numbers is coming at ever higher costs to the local population. But that doesn\u2019t mean the company is going to just give up.\nIt already has a vital ally on its side: the European Commission. a report published by non-profit research and advocay group Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO), lobbyists from AirBnB, HomeAway (owned by Expedia), and their principal lobbying group, European Holiday Home Association, are small in number compared to other sectors, but when it comes to influencing the Commission, the EU\u2019s executive branch, they \u201cpunch well above their weight.\u201d\nSharing economy platforms have been able to use the EU\u2019s e-commerce directive, which dates back to the year 2000, to overcome some of the policy measures passed against them by local city authorities. Until now local authorities have been able to opt out of at least some of the obligations and limitations in the e-commerce directive on public interest grounds. But that could soon change.\nIn a meeting with Commission representatives in 2016 the EHHA lodged a formal complaint against the cities of Barcelona, Berlin, Paris, and Brussels, which could ultimately lead to action by the European Court of Justice (ECJ). So far there is no indication that the Commission has referred the case to the ECJ. But lobbying pressure on both continues to mount.\nIn July 2017, the EHHA sent a \u201cDraft Principle on Regulation of Short-Term Rentals\u201d to the Commission, in which it outlined the sort of regulations it would like to see enacted across Europe. CEO asked to see a copy of the document under EU rules on access to documents, but the Commission refused, citing an exception relating to \u201cbusiness secrets.\u201d\nThe Commission had already published a set of guidelines that is broadly reflective of the legislative framework sought by Airbnb and other rental platforms. For the moment those guidelines are non-binding, but that could change. Last year, the European Parliament passed with an overwhelming majority a resolution that \u201ccondemns\u201d any attempt by local authorities to restrict the supply of tourist accommodation from online platforms. It was yet further proof of how divorced the cosseted decision makers in the EU government bubble are from the regions, cities, and communities they\u2019re supposedto serve and represent.\nIf Airbnb and other tourist rental platforms ultimately win the regulatory battle in Brussels, local authorities will be rendered virtually powerless to regulate the local housing market and city environment in the interest of the people who live there. But the struggle for the heart and soul of Europe\u2019s cities is unlikely to end there. In fact, if anything, it will merely intensify the simmering resentment and anger many local residents feel toward the platforms, their hosts, and the growing hordes of tourists they accommodate.\nAmid a blossoming backlash against mass tourism, one place takes extreme measures. Read\u2026\nThis entry was posted in Europe, Free markets and their discontents, Guest Post, Legal, Regulations and regulators, Ridiculously obvious scams, Technology and innovation, The destruction of the middle class on May 10, 2018 by Yves Smith.\n\u2190 The U.S. Is Not at Full Employment\u2014Don\u2019t Believe the Trump Administration\u2019s Hype to the Contrary Links 5/10/18 \u2192\nskippy May 10, 2018 at 3:56 am\nMon Dieu [!!!!!]\u2026. whom knew that renting out an IP via some app would lead to property owners cracking a fat because their primary residence has become diminish due others looking for an absentee ownership seeking free ride income stream without any normal social responsibility.\nOh yeah\u2026 something about providing a space for people to engage in providing good and services, albeit with some ticket clipping.\nAirbnb is the sort of company that you would like to suggest that it take a long walk off a short pier while carrying an iron anvil. The again, perhaps it is its bad luck to be a company that seeks to cram more tourists in already overcrowded destinations and adding to the problems of those people that actually live there. The headwinds they face are substantial.\nVenice appears to be at the forefront of this issue. Not long ago they had huge actual ocean liners come right into the city to accommodate the rich tourists but which was damaging Venice itself. They literally towered over the city itself. It was ridiculous and I am not sure if they still allow them into the city center.\nIf Brussels tries to side with Airbnb they may be opening up a hornet\u2019s nest for themselves. The European Parliament may be in favour of yet more tourists but I am willing to bet that those same Parliamentarians do not live in areas much effected by them. There may be even a local guerrilla campaign to fight the effects of companies like Airbnb and I doubt that there are any laws against harassing tourists and protesting their presence.\nTruth be told, you could build a city in the middle of nowhere and fill it full of bars, hotels, strip clubs and the like and a big chunk of tourists would be quite happy with that as that it all many want or need. Have it near a beach or on an island and you would have a winner. Airbnb could then stock as many places that they could and no-one would care but I doubt that this will ever be done. But if it was done, it would take a lot of pressure off other destinations.\nJohn B May 10, 2018 at 7:06 am\nLas Vegas was basically founded for the reason you mention, to obtain tourists \u2014 specifically, gamblers. I find the place loathsome, but it does draw crowds away from other spots.\nTourism does seem suited for local regulation, not international control. Some areas would have no economy without tourism \u2014 ski resorts come to mind, as well as Las Vegas. Some coastal areas would be the exclusive preserve of the ultra-rich. Yet major cities like Berlin and Barcelona would do perfectly well without it.\nI like Berlin\u2019s approach of letting homeowners rent out spare rooms.\nCruise ships are portable Las Vegas. I see the primary advantage of cruise ships is that they keep the partying tourists well out at sea where there is no way they can disturb the neighbors or cause traffic jams.\nAirbnb could then stock as many places that they could and no-one would care but I doubt that this will ever be done.\nThanks, RevKev. I agree that many \u2018mass tourists\u2019 would never miss actual foreign places. This sort of tourist would probably better be described by the British term \u2018holidaymaker\u2019 \u2014 someone looking for a good time and some sunshine before going back to their dreary jobs, as opposed to wanting to absorb culture, history and ambiance.\nBut AirBnB would *never* \u2018stock\u2019 any places at all. That would make them a hotel, you know, where vacancies cost them. Their business model is to let other people do all the stocking as well as soaking up the costs of vacancies, ongoing maintenance, adverse regulation, tenants who trash the place and any other downside risk that may be involved.\nDitto! Had the misfortune last year of traveling with some colleagues to South Carolina. We managed to score some cheap hotel rooms in downtown Charleston. They were determined to spend most the time getting wasted at bars while one of the most beautiful cities in America waited outside. Amazed how most people really don\u2019t care about the history or beauty of a great city. They just want to party. I was lucky and there were several foggy nights which made lazy midnight strolls all the more charming. What a magical city.\nMattski May 10, 2018 at 9:45 am\nThe last time we were in Grenada some wealthy Russian\u2019s yacht\u2013reputed to be the world\u2019s biggest\u2013anchored in the harbor; it dwarfed the city. Was around for a week and you would see it meandering offshore, another island unto itself, as it plied local waters. Locals joked that the oilygarch just might buy the place, solve everyone\u2019s problems. He was probably buying a Grenadian passport, which Chinese and Russians are said to be scooping for future security purposes.\nPlutoniumKun May 10, 2018 at 4:40 am\nI suspect AirBNB won\u2019t get very far trying to use EU law in their favour. I don\u2019t know the details of the complaint to the EU, but I suspect it relates to cities trying to use regulations to crack down on the platform, as opposed to the property owners. It may be that they are overstepping the law in doing this, but there are many ways to tackle the problem. Here in Ireland AirBnB is struggling because a variety of regulatory tweaks have meant that renters are mostly liable for tax, and a number of low level legal decisions have ensured that the use of properties for short term holiday lettings has been declared a separate zoning use class, hence the owners need permission to do it (and this is rarely forthcoming unless the property has been purpose built for letting).\nMy own apartment building management has thankfully banned it \u2013 its within our lease that we can forbid short term letting even on freehold apartments. Numerous other buildings are doing likewise in my area \u2013 its just too much of a security hassle to have people wandering around the building so almost all apartment management companies that I know of have limited or banned AirBnB use. I know several landlords who have reverted from short to medium and long term letting, just because of the hassle factor.\nThat said, while there is a backlash against tourists in some areas, its by no means universal. AirBnB is very popular because it works \u2013 its a cheap way for people to travel, and a great way to avoid rip-off hotel prices at peak period. And a lot of regular people see it as a way of boosting their income, by renting out a spare room or attic. If AirBnB was sensible, they\u2019d self-regulate to mitigate the worst impacts, but it seems they are so arrogant they are their own worse enemies.\nIgnacio May 10, 2018 at 6:34 am\nAlthough it is rigth to say there is no universal backlash against AirBnb there is a strong argument and anger about sky-high rents in large municipalites partly driven by AirBnb and the like. The convenience thing migth be good for visitors and owners of multiple units but municipalities, tenants and home-seekers are increasingly worried.\nClive May 10, 2018 at 6:50 am\nI agree, there is little obvious help to be gained from whining to the EU. A lot of municipalities have broad latitude under very stringent and well enforced environmental and sustainability protections which are strongest of all available under EU rules. used these successfully.\nAnd the Commission is commendably rigorous in enforcement of environmental protection, even huge and normally unquestioningly supported industries have felt the of the Commission where environmental protection directives have been ignored under spurious \u201cbusiness\u201d or \u201csafety\u201d nonsensical challenges.\nSo if the municipal authorities use environmental damage \u2014 and there\u2019s no shortage of good evidence that tourism has big especially in water stressed or air quality degraded cities.\nI\u2019ll bet the EU comes down on AirBnB like a ton of bricks. AirBnB is making the same mistake that\u2019s afflicted U.K. business in dealing with the EU \u2014 huffing and puffing, whining about things it turns out to be on shaky ground over, then getting lawyered up when their feeble arguments don\u2019t land on anything other than deaf ears with EU policy makers. It is, as U.K. businesses have found ( is a case study in how whinging British businesses simply didn\u2019t understand how the EU works) counterproductive. Special pleading gets you nowhere. You need to build cross business and cross border support, which I doubt has even occurred to AirBnB.\nI think it wouldn\u2019t be wise for the Comission to confront municipalities on this issue. Moreover when populisms are on the rise, and taking in account that those have a large share of population. Also, the Comission, powerful as it is, is not competent on municipal issues. In addition I believe the ECJ has no jurisdiction on municipal issues, which have not been transferred to the EU by any agreement.\nWhat part of airbnb being a rent clipping app that is corrosive to local community is confusing.\nYep, no part. Let\u2019s add that while municipal authorities are democratically chosen, the Comission is fingercratically selected. Should they choose to confront it would be crystal clear what kind of interests are those institutions defending.\nfingercratically selected\nWhat a delicious term, Ignacio. I am stealing it, thank you very much!\nOther James May 10, 2018 at 7:30 am\nWhile I have plenty of issues with AirBNB in terms of tax and local regulations, I find it very hard to blame them for a housing crisis that has been mismanaged in most of the world, because markets. And having used AirBNB in Paris and Barcelona, one as a complete unit and one as a share, for a family group that wanted to self cater, I found the service very convenient. There was no obvious alternative available when we did not want to stay in hotel type accommodation, and while mindful of price it was not the driving consideration.\nThe issue for cities like Paris and Barcelona is how to make them work for their citizens and tourists. Blaming AirBNB is not the solution.\nAirbnb moved in everywhere, flouting the law, because disruption. They disregarded zoning and didn\u2019t even bother to check in many cases that the person listing a rental was actually the owner of the property.\nThey have been operating illegally all over the world.\nThey are entirely to blame.\nLight-a-Candle May 10, 2018 at 11:06 am\nI have loved renting flats, including Airbnb, while travelling but can no longer do so in good conscience unless it is a) a spare room or b) someone\u2019s primary residence or c) it is a high-vacancy rental market (very few of those).\nAirBnb unequivocally negatively impacts long-term affordable rental stock and in very substantive ways. And if you read the linked article above, the business is so lucrative organized crime is moving in.\nLord Koos May 10, 2018 at 12:23 pm\nUntil it was outlawed, in Seattle the wealthy were buying apartment buildings and putting every single unit up on air bnb. This in a city that has one of the highest rates of homelessness in the country.\nJesper May 10, 2018 at 7:54 am\nMEPs are wealthy enough to be proud users of AirBnB, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if a disproportionate amount of them and/or their family-members rent out using AirBnb. The money they make from being MEPs should be enough to have a good life and a good retirement but they strike me as people who\u2019d not shy away from making some extra money\u2026..\nThuto May 10, 2018 at 8:09 am\nThanks for highlighting that the mantra of mass tourism protagonists, job creation, is itself \u201criddled with caveats\u201d. In my city of Cape Town, where overseas sur savings (largely European) are being parked in local real estate at unprecedented levels, large swathes of rental stock has shifted to air bnb with devastating effects for locals. The little that is left of long term rental stock comes at eye popping rents. Said european sur capital has created an asset bubble that has squeezed all but the wealthiest locals out of the property market. While the water crisis was expected to at least have a deflationary effect on housing prices, not much has been noticed by way of easing of prices.\nAnd yet, local city authorities have been unequivocal in their support of air bnb and its ilk, stating categorically that \u201cthe city of cape town will not place any obstacles on the path of disruptive innovation\u201d, never mind that the ability of locals to have a decent roof over their heads is being disrupted out of existence. Try raising this with well-to-do progressives and the response you get is \u201cit creates jobs\u201d (with no mention of the caveats of course). At least European municipal officials, sobering up from years of intoxication by the Silicon Valley cool aid, are waking up to the cons. Maybe Cape Town will follow some day\u2026\nAfter many years of turning a blind eye to the substantive problem of Airbnb, this year both San Francisco and Vancouver took action to sharply curtail Airbnb.\nBoth cities are limiting Airbnb to primary residences and hosts must display a valid business licence from the city. This effectively bans \u201ccommercial hosts\u201d, who have removed so much long-term rental stock. Also the fines are substantive, up to a $1,000 a day for even advertising.\nAirbnb sued SF for curtailing its business but lost. The lawsuit is a clear indicator of Airbnb\u2019s amorality, as SF has been in a housing crisis for many years.\nHere in Tucson, if you want to operate your business from home in a residential neighborhood, you must have:\n1. A city business license\n2. A home occupation registration\nFor the record, I have both. Neither was hard to get.\nI don\u2019t see why my fellow Tucsonans, who are listing their places on AirBnB, can\u2019t follow the same rules. They aren\u2019t THAT onerous.\nrd May 10, 2018 at 12:08 pm\nWhile I am opposed to licensing as a means of creating monopolies (hello NYC taxi medallions), AirBNB etc. need to be regulated to have an even playing field on three fronts:\n1. Taxes \u2013 hotels, B&Bs etc. are a significant tax base for the local communities. Not collecting taxes is simply free-loading creating an unfair market advantage.\n2. Code enforcement \u2013 regular rentals, hotels etc. need to meet minimum code standards for public safety etc. Not meeting code is usually a safety problem as well as an unfair market advantage.\n3. Zoning \u2013 Cities often locate hotels and short-term rentals in commercial areas as part of land use planning. Random rental locations in AirBNB effectively negate zoning and planning.\nSo AirBNB is a useful service, but needs to be on an even playing field with the rest of the industry.\nTony Wright May 10, 2018 at 7:29 pm\nI think these examples illustrate the fundamental problems of air bnb- local authorities , especially in many European cities, have been culpably negligent in their response to airbnb, with the results eloquently described in the many posts above.\nWhy? Bueaucratic inertia, lack of vision, lack of understanding of the concept of consequences, and various manifestations of naked self -interest ( dare I say it, naked capitalism\u2026..!) Or all of the above.\nThe obvious solution is a bit like Marijuana really \u2013 legalise, regulate and tax.\nFirst law of capitalism, supply and demand; and the logical consequence of making something that people want illegal is the creation of a black market and another opportunity for organised crime.\nAnd where do you think hotel prices would be without airbnb? Second law of capitalism, what the market will stand\u2026.\nCloverBee May 10, 2018 at 8:34 am\nI fully agree with the corrosive effects of AirBnB on local housing markets. I get it, I really do. However, I hate hotels, even nice hotels. I hate the thin walls, the zero privacy coming and going, the generic everything, the small fridges and microwaves, having someone cleaning up after me, and how it completely separates you from the culture of a new place.\nI recently stayed in a very very old hotel that had a new wing (I picked the old part), and while some of the issues were there, it didn\u2019t grate on me as much. And the common areas were especially enjoyable to sit around in. The newer wing felt just like any Marriott.\nIf hotels were not so atrocious, AirBnB (and VRBO) wouldn\u2019t be a thing.\nKurt Sperry May 10, 2018 at 10:59 am\nI hate AirBnB but I, like you, also hate hotel rooms. I don\u2019t want or need a maid barging into my room every day any more than I would at home, and I don\u2019t want to be forced to eat at restaurants because there is no actual kitchen with an oven and a stove and a refrigerator in my room. Even a common kitchen like I\u2019ve had at hostels is far better. So often, there are these local markets with incredible ingredients for sale, and I can\u2019t eat any because I have no way to prepare them into meals. And hotels just don\u2019t care what I want, and never will.\noh May 10, 2018 at 9:03 am\nMaybe AirBnB, Uber and other app reliant nefarious outfits should be taxed directly by each jurisdiction (Sales tax and property tax to begin with). That\u2019ll put a quick end to them. I don\u2019t see why their stock should be valued so high for being an intermediary (a rentier\u2019s rentier).\nThis is where Amazon went several years ago for Amazon-sold products, they collect and remit taxes in every state and county. They are now competing based on their specific service and pricing, not because you can avoid sales tax. AirBnB, Uber etc. need to do the same.\nlyman alpha blob May 10, 2018 at 12:56 pm\nGreat idea \u2013 governments could use the funds to build some government-owned affordable housing. But it\u2019s harder to implement than you might think depending on the state you\u2019re in.\nOur city is in the process of banning Airbnbs that are not owner-occupied and regulating the ones that are. I brought up the possibility of imposing a city lodging tax but found out it couldn\u2019t be done. In our state, the state reserves the right to collect all lodging taxes for itself so it would be necessary to get the legislature to change some laws first and that isn\u2019t easy to do. I\u2019m sure they would all start screaming that we can\u2019t raise taxes because \u2018jawbz!\u2019 and \u2018economy!\u2019, despite the fact that it is relatively wealthy tourists that are coming to our relatively poor state for vacations.\nThe Sharecropper Economy is a little too close to feudalism for these folks to forget.\nWish I had taken a picture of the \u201cTourism is terrorism\u201d hand made signs I saw around the neighborhoods in Barcelona.\nAnnieb May 10, 2018 at 11:19 am\nI have used Airbnb a few times and enjoyed the experience of meeting the home owner and staying in a real neighborhood. I think there is a place for Airbnb in most cities but with more stringent regulations. In my area Boulder, CO, some homeowners who have owned their homes for a long time are in a financial bind with rising property taxes, so Airbnb can be a good remedy for some. But there have been a lot of complaints about apartments rented and condos purchased for Airbnb. Stricter regulations and taxes have been enacted but I think probably even further tightening is justified, especially because of the very tight and expensive rental market in the Boulder/Denver area.\nStricter rules might cause Airbnb prices to rise, but most Airbnb rentals would still be cheaper, nicer, more pleasant, than the majority of hotels. I, too, really dislike motels/hotels. The traditional bed and breakfast never caught on in the USA and Airbnb filled that void somewhat. Too bad the usual greed and stupidity is ruining a good thing.\nThat said, I prefer to use VRBO which has more reasonable cancellation policies, especially for long term rental.\nI used AirBnB only once back in 2013. My host did not want to give me a washcloth. When calling AirBnB I was told that if it was not included in ad, my complain would not be valid reason for canceling. I asked to cancel as of that day. They said I had to pay for two additional days even if I did not stay. There were other issues that were not stated in their ad.\nWhat is VRBO\u2019s cancellation policy?\nStephen Gardner May 10, 2018 at 12:29 pm\nCan we please not use the term \u201csharing economy \u201d when talking about Airbnb or Uber? It\u2019s marketing BS. Sharing is NOT a financial transaction.\nCloverBee May 10, 2018 at 1:04 pm\nI so agree! When I first heard the concept, I thought, what a cool way to share a commute and gas expenses (regarding Uber), when it really is just an app-based taxi service.\nI have seen plenty of people on AirBnB offering use of 1 bedroom in their house (where they currently reside) or couch surfing. Those seem legitimately like sharing (sub-letting) to me. Here is a whole apartment/house/townhouse is something else entirely.\nIgnacio May 10, 2018 at 1:14 pm\nWhen you rent with AirBnB a house during owner\u2019s holidays it is also sharing. I\u2019ve used this service three times and only once this was the case.\nAn unaddressed problem with AirBnB is that in markets where AirBnB is marketed to home buyers as way for them to pay their mortgage, the price of homes will rise to take the income from AirBnB into account. What starts out as an optional way to cover part of the mortgage will eventually become an unavoidable way to cover the larger mortgage. In the end, the money winds up with the banks.\nPeter VE May 10, 2018 at 10:08 pm\nIn Rhode Island, the state where I live, Airbnb pays the same taxes as the hotels.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Testimony by Linda\nSince my daughter, Mina came to America to study when she was very young; we have lived apart for 20 years. We meet once a year only for one month and it was too short for us. So I decided to come here and finally got a green card. I wanted to help her, my nice son-in-law and two lovely granddaughters. But, I got it wrong. I was given a lot of blessings instead of giving them. I\u2019m so grateful for everything. I\u2019m surrounded by church families and I\u2019m thankful for my son-in-law. Many nice and kind people showed me beautiful hearts. Some gave me rides to women\u2019s gathering in terrible weather, some took me to museums, concerts, gardens, farms and quilt shows. I\u2019m so grateful for them and blessed by them.\nIn March, I started One to One Discipleship with Jean as part of a church study. Marcia and I became disciples of Jesus Christ. At first, it was hard for me to memorize the bible verses and do the homework. I had to do double the work because I had to translate English to Korean and Korean into English. But time went by and I was having a lot of fun and God was touching my heart. So Monday, our discipleship day was not a blue Monday anymore. I started looking forward to Monday\u2019s discipleship and Wednesday\u2019s prayer meeting. They guided me into another peaceful world. Prayers have become a big part of my life. My life has changed a lot. Everything around me seemed so blessed. I can never forget the first day of our discipleship, it was peaceful and quiet, and we started with Jean\u2019s prayer. Time went on and we shared not only our faith but also our daily lives, such as birds, bears and flowers. On April 20th, Jean invited me to a very special convention. It was called BCNE Women\u2019s retreat and there were over 400 women in attendance. There the speaker Debbie, who is serving as a national leader within the crusade, is the founder of Neighborhood Bible Studies. She emphasized the importance of memorizing bible verses and applying them to real lives. She showed us ways to be kind to our neighbors, thereby opening their minds to the love of Jesus Christ.\nThrough the discipleship study, the words of the Bible came to me just like a sound from heaven that was heard by the believers in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, 2000 years ago. His words changed me. I became born again of the Spirit to be assured of my salvation. While I was reading the verses, so many anxieties and fears that often made me uneasy disappeared like the dew in the morning under the sunshine.\nI think this conviction is a kind of miracle in my life. Now I conclude my testimony with my favorite verse Psalm 23. Amen\nPosted in Testimony, Uncategorized\tpermalink",

        "raw_content": "WHY CHARTIERS CREEK?\nThe Chartiers Creek valley, although located just a few miles from downtown Pittscurgh, offers breathtaking vistas and quiet solitude for those who seek its offerings. It also offers cultural and social riches in the same magnitude. Although, recovering from more than a century of impacts that have resulted from coal extraction, the water quality in.Chartiers Creek has exhibited significant improvement in the last decade. Much of this improvement has been the result of grassroots efforts to inventory and remediate harmful discharges from the vast network of deep coal mines that underlay the watershed. Efforts to reduce other sources of point and non-point water pollution have been initiated by local conservation groups and governmental agencies as well.\nThese efforts are returning large dividends as water-based activities in the Chartiers Creek watershed have gained increasing popularity. These include recreational and sport paddling, fishing, waterfowl observation and development of educational programs.\nAn interconnected water / land trail will enhance these experiences and provide the basis for the future development of the concepts that are recommended in this study.",

        "raw_content": "Copycat Killers (2016) - TV Show\nThis series goes behind the headlines of real-life murder cases which copy memorable slayings seen in Hollywood movies. Each episode features a mystifying murder scene and law enforcement's hunt for the killer. Whether it's two high school students terrorizing and killing a female classmate to copy the horror blockbuster Scream or the gruesome acts of pig farmer and serial killer, Robert Pickton, who copied Hannibal and fed his victims to his pigs - these horrific scenes actually happened but very few people know the real stories that led to these killings. CopyCat Killers includes interviews with investigators, family members of victims and forensic experts. The series also features high quality recreations, extensive archive and original documents from police case files.\nWe all love seeing movies - some people turn the fun into an obsession! Copycat Killers is a true crime TV series that tells stories of real crimes that were inspired by major motion pictures and television. These real killers bring the violence of the movies into the real world, telling tales more shocking than what we see on screen. The series explores the gamut of frightening films from traditional horrors like American Psycho and Scream to cult classics Heathers and Taxi Driver, to modern tales of terror like Saw and Dexter. The real life crime, including the killer's chilling back-story, the murders, and the exciting investigation, is shown as a parallel to the Hollywood hit. Featuring dramatic recreations and detailed insights from detectives, psychologists, film critics, and other experts, Copycat Killers tells these terrifying true stories that'll change the way you see movies.\nCopycat Killers Next Episode Airs In:\nCOPYCAT KILLERS - General Information\nCOPYCAT KILLERS - Season 1 -- 6 Episodes\n1x1 -- Feb 27, 2016 -- Scream\n1x2 -- Mar 05, 2016 -- Natural Born Killers\n1x3 -- Mar 12, 2016 -- Fatal Attraction\n1x4 -- Mar 26, 2016 -- Heathers\n1x5 -- Apr 02, 2016 -- Rambo\n1x6 -- Apr 09, 2016 -- American Psycho\n2x1 -- Jul 23, 2016 -- Taxi Driver\n2x2 -- Jul 30, 2016 -- Hannibal\n2x3 -- Aug 06, 2016 -- Saw\n2x4 -- Aug 13, 2016 -- Freddy vs. Jason\n2x5 -- Aug 20, 2016 -- Dexter\n2x6 -- Aug 27, 2016 -- The Talented Mr. Ripley\n2x7 -- Sep 03, 2016 -- Queen of the Damned\n3x1 -- Jun 03, 2017 -- The Dark Knight\n3x2 -- Jun 10, 2017 -- The Matrix\n3x3 -- Jun 17, 2017 -- Breaking Bad\n3x4 -- Jun 24, 2017 -- Basketball Diaries\n3x5 -- Jul 01, 2017 -- Robocop\n3x6 -- Jul 08, 2017 -- Halloween\nCOPYCAT KILLERS - Season 4 -- 14 Episodes\n4x1 -- Sep 09, 2017 -- The Sopranos\n4x2 -- Sep 16, 2017 -- Child's Play\n4x3 -- Sep 23, 2017 -- Dirty Harry: Magnum Force\n4x4 -- Sep 30, 2017 -- Reservoir Dogs\n4x5 -- Oct 07, 2017 -- X-Men\n4x6 -- Oct 14, 2017 -- Deliverance\n4x7 -- Nov 04, 2017 -- The Purge\n4x8 -- Nov 11, 2017 -- The Omen\n4x9 -- Nov 18, 2017 -- The Billionaire Boys Club\n4x10 -- Nov 25, 2017 -- The Collector\n4x11 -- Dec 02, 2017 -- Fear\n4x12 -- Dec 09, 2017 -- The Fisher King\n4x13 -- Dec 16, 2017 -- Kill Bill\n4x14 -- Jan 06, 2018 -- Primal Fear\n5x1 -- Jul 13, 2018 -- Twilight\n5x2 -- Jul 20, 2018 -- The Legend of Lizzie Borden\n5x3 -- Jul 27, 2018 -- Money Train\n6x1 -- Feb 02, 2019 -- Silence of the Lambs\n6x2 -- Feb 09, 2019 -- Goodfellas\n6x3 -- Feb 23, 2019 -- Forensic Files\nAdditional COPYCAT KILLERS Information\nCopycat Killers on IMDb\nCopycat Killers on TVmaze\nCopycat Killers Cast\n................... as Leonard Lake 1 episode, 2017\n................ as Doctor 2 episodes, 2016\n............... as Restaurant Patron 1 episode, 2017\nKelli-Anne Harris\n............ as Brenda O' Connor 1 episode, 2017\n.......... as Jessica 1 episode, 2017\n................. as Mr. Blonde 1 episode, 2017\n................. as Matt 2 episodes, 2016-2017\n.................. as Victom #8 1 episode, 2017\n............... as Officer Michael Santo 2 episodes, 2016-2018\n............... as Reporter 1 episode, 2016\nVince Eisenson\n............... as Mr. Allen 1 episode, 2017\n............ as Dave Neese 1 episode, 2016\n............... as Detective 2 episodes, 2017\n............... as Cat Lady Mental Patient 1 episode, 2017\n................. as Female Victim in Restaurant 2 episodes, 2016-2017\nMary Suib\n.................... as Psychiatrist 1 episode, 2016\n............... as Harry P.

Mayo on a crisp autumn day.\nLouisburgh is a small town on the shores of the stunning Clew Bay and was founded in 1795 by the 3rd Earl of Altamount, John Denis Browne of Westport as a refuge for Catholics escape sectarian violence in Ulster. Nestled under the both Mweelrea Mountain and Croagh Patrick, it is one of the most scenic areas in Ireland\nThe area around Louisburgh has long been associated with Grace O\u2019Malley or \u2018Granuaile, the Priate Queen\u2019 who ruled the waters of Clew Bay nearly 500 years ago. Born in 1530 Grace was the Queen of Umaill, chieftain of the \u00d3 M\u00e1ille clan and was to become one of the most feared pirates in 16th century Ireland. With her fleet of captured ships and army of over 200 men Granuaile\u2019s exploits at sea were legendary. Her insistence of extracting \u2018maintenance\u2019 on all shipping that passed through Clew Bay made her an arch enemy of Elizabeth 1st. Indeed Grace\u2019s appetite for war and rebellion in general proved to be a constant thorn in the side of the English ruler and her Irish plantation policy.\nIreland\u2019s Holy Mountain Croagh Patrick, also known as \u2018The Reek\u2019, dominates the right of this photograph. The ancient tradition of pilgrimage to The Reek is said to stretch back over 5,000 years without interruption with pagans being thought to have gathered here to celebrate the beginning of harvest season. It\u2019s more modern religious association is of course with St Patrick and on \u2018Reek Sunday\u2019, the last Sunday in July every year, over 15,000 often barefoot pilgrims climb to its summit.\nCroagh Patrick forms part of a U-shaped valley created by a glacier flowing into Clew Bay during the last Ice Age and is part of a longer east-west ridge with Ben Gorm forming the most western peak.\nLouisburgh is a small town on the shores of the stunning Clew Bay and was founded in 1795 by the 3rd Earl of Altamount, John Denis Browne of Westport as a refuge for Catholics escape sectarian violence in Ulster.

        "raw_content": "Natural Resources and Violent Conflict in Egypt\nWith the support of the Minerva Research Initiative, the Conflict and Development team of Innovations for Peace and Development (IPD) at the University of Texas coded time series data on the location of resource extraction and production facilities, and the monetary value of resources, in order to assess the correlation between natural resources and civil conflict.\nThe team has prepared a series of country and regional-level research briefs based on their findings. In this series, the first report examines whether natural resources and industrial materials had an effect on Egypt\u2019s unrest during the Arab Spring. By using data from Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED) and coded resource data from United States Geological Survey (USGS), the team produced visual maps and ran geographic regression analyses to assess the correlation between natural resources and civil conflict during the eve of the Egyptian Revolution and its consequent unrest. Check out the full report here.\nNatural Resources and Violent Conflict in Central Africa\nThe second brief on natural resources and violent conflict focuses on Central Africa \u2013 the Democratic Republic of Congo and its bordering states. As a state that is often used as a prototypical example of natural resources\u2019 ability to promote civil violence, this is a key case to examine.Using data coded by the Conflict and Development Team of IPD, combined with conflict information from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), the team produced maps and geographic regression analysis about the situation in Central Africa. We find that resource-related violence is highly related to border distance in the DRC. Borders provide escape routes for rebels to flee the reach of the central government and into friendly co-ethnic territory in other states. Check out the full report here.\nNatural Resources and Violent Conflict in Algeria\nThe third brief on natural resources and violent conflict focuses on Algeria, a resource rich state that has seen its share of internal conflict. As a state that receives most of its revenue from the sale of hydrocarbons, Algeria is a prime case to examine. It allows us to see if prior government control of resources matters to the outbreak of resource-related violence.\nUsing data coded by the Conflict and Development Team of IPD, combined with conflict information from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), the team produced maps and geographic regression analysis about the situation in Algeria. We find that violence is unrelated to, or even negatively correlated with, the location of important natural resources. As the base of the government\u2019s power, protection of these resources is paramount to the government\u2019s survival. Check out the full report here.",

        "title": "Vintage Camper History",
        "raw_content": "Vintage Camper History\nMore popular than ever, vintage camper trailers appeal to both young and old alike. There are many styles to choose from, including teardrop, pop-up, folding, and airstream. Vintage house trailers, built in either plywood, aluminium and fiberglass, were once built only by skilled tradesmen, but modern mass production methods have made campers less expensive and more obtainable than ever.\nThe main selling point of house trailers, also referred to as caravans, was the affordable price, appealing mainly to middle class families. They now had the option to drive to other U.S. states or European towns they had never been to, as other travel methods were too expensive. After WWII, people realized how much easier and cheaper it was to travel with a house trailer, and soon trailer sites started to appear in the countryside and parks.\nOrigins Of The Travel Trailer\nPraised as one of the most revolutionary eras in history in terms of technology, the 1930s paved the way for many of the inventions we use on a regular basis, and would more than likely be lost without. Progressing from small discoveries, like the chocolate-chip cookie to larger life-changing creations including the polygraph machine, the photocopier and the beloved Volkswagen Beetle, the thirties were responsible for the conception of a number of great technological ideas that are still used today.\nModes of transport, in particular, began to improve in the 1930s and travel was expected to be nothing less than luxurious and stylish. Leaving behind the traditional horse and wagon, the upgraded motorcars and street cars of the thirties became a necessity for every household. Whether they were used for leisurely drives or for business travels, the 1930s vehicles offered a form of escape, especially during the Great Depression, which affected the United States and Europe greatly.\nThe Family holidays and road trips also became more valued during this time, which saw people owning more camper trailers than ever before. They offered families a home away from home and the choice to venture out for a beachside vacation or camping retreat with easy accessibility. Although camper travel meant pitching on road sides and traveling for long hours, it proved to be very cost-effective and a much more personal journey than on a train or plane.\nThe teardrop, or \"canned ham\" style of camper, started appearing in the United States in the 1930s. With curved metal roofs and pop-out back windows, teardrop trailers were ideal for one or two campers. Bring lightweight and compact, no special vehicles were required to tow teardrop campers. Their popularity rose significantly following World War II.\nPost World War II Camper Boom\nAfter the war, travel trailers led to a new means of recreation for young, post-war families. Roadway systems had improved, and campers were modestly priced. Names like Airstream, Shasta and DeVille became symbols of post-WW2 success.\nVintage Trailer Brands\nIn the early 1930s, there were less than 50 manufacturers in the United States. By the end of the 1930s, more than 400 companies marketed travel trailers.\nAside from the well-known favorites, such as Airstream and Shasta, there is also Aristocrat, Avion, Aloha, Benroy, Bowlus, Dalton, DeVille, Franklin, Kamp Master, Kenskill, Redman, Silver Streak, Spartan, Terry, and many others.\nBritish Caravans\nCaravans in the thirties, with their aerodynamic streamlined design and modern features, revolutionized the much-loved people-carrier. It brought up standards that were not far off from the models in the 21st century. One of the most popular British models of the 1930s was the Car Cruiser Rally Four De-Luxe, a model that was well ahead of its time in terms of its design: it had a more lightweight build than older designs while remaining very spacious and home-like.\nThe Eccles Senator and Imperial models (and later its famous National Caravan following WW2) were British favorites; they had similar features to the Car Cruiser model and were equally lightweight. With the introduction of glass-reinforced plastic in the fifties (more commonly known as fiberglass), construction became less costly and the trailers became lighter. Winchester, the luxury caravan manufacturer, won over buyers with their custom-made caravans, which were tailored to the customer's exact specifications.\nSeveral vintage British camper trailers you might still see peddling along today include Eccles, Sprite, and Ace. All have gone out of manufacture. Check out this page from Salop Leisure for an illustrated history of the British caravan.\nCamper Trailers Today\nMore popular than ever, travel trailers are still a great choice for camping retreats and cross-country road trips. They are also a fun way to bond with family, offering a home on wheels and the promise of new adventures, not to mention saving money on hotel or accommodation costs.\nA creative businessman in Wake Forest, North Carolina, turned this old travel trailer into a mobile store for his cupcake company!\nHauling A Travel Trailer\nPulling a travel trailer has a profound effect on how the tow vehicle handles. When a camper is hooked to your car, the car is not only a load-carrying vehicle, it is also a load-pulling vehicle. This places more demand on your vehicle's braking, steering, cooling, and lighting systems, and greater safety must be exercised. Nearly all trailer tires on all but the largest travel trailers have a maximum speed rating of just 65 MPH.\nIn the US, each state has it's own requirements for pulling and hauling trailers. Equipment such as hitches and safety chains need to be compliant. Check with your state and local laws before you travel.\nVintage Trailer Market\nWith a limited supply and growing demand, trailer values are rising. Unfortunately, the vintage camper market does not have a 'bluebook' to reference trailer values like cars and trucks do.\nFind Trailer Parts and more at Vintage Trailer Supply",

        "raw_content": "Exposing The Bacon Eating Atheist Jew\nI really should stop worrying about pissing these people off and stop censoring myself. I keep forgetting that these Zionist wankers are helping my google ranking. Here we go again...\nI recently became aware of a Jewish Internet agent provocateur going by the moniker \"bacon-eating atheist Jew.\" It seems he didn't like a particular article I wrote a week ago entitled \"Let's Talk about Jews and Elections.\"[1] I wonder why? Why would a professed 'atheist' care whether or not I wrote about Jews, isn't Judaism a religion and not a race or ethnicity? Isn't that what we've all been led to believe? Besides, what does he have against dialogue? Why is it that the 'bacon-eating atheist Jew' doesn't want us to \"talk\" about Jews and elections?\nIn any case, I'd like to tear apart his argument and expose him for the fool and black propagandist he truly is. Here goes.\nIn my article, Let's Talk About Jews And Elections, I exposed the fact that Nicolas Sarkozy, France's new President, is a Jew. The bacon-eating atheist Jew suggests he's a Catholic. You decide [See photo above - note yarmulke].\nIn his critique of my article[2] the bacon-eating atheist Jew suggests that Sarkozy isn't Jewish that he's a practicing Catholic:\n\"His grandfather, a Sephardi Jew by birth, was a convert to Catholicism, and Sarkozy was, accordingly, raised in the Catholic faith of his household. Nicolas Sarkozy, like his brothers, is a baptised and professing Catholic.\"\nThis is a bald-faced LIE and the bacon-eating atheist Jew is a liar. He knows very well that Sarkozy is Jewish, he was born of a Jewish womb, Sarkozy's mother is a Jew, therefore by Jewish LAW, so is Sarkozy. PERIOD. He could be a practicing Buddhist and it wouldn't matter, his mother is a Jew, therefore he is, too. In effect, what we have is a poor Internet propagandist, the BEAJ on one side insisting Sarkozy is a Catholic...and on the other side, we have some prestigious Jewish publications acknowledging the fact that Nicolas Sarkozy is as Jewish as matzo balls.\nThe Australian Jewish news[3] reports the following:\n\"it is well known that Sarkozy's mother was born to the Mallah family, one of the oldest Jewish families of Salonika, Greece.\"\nThe AJN additionally quotes Sarkozy himself stating the following which clearly illustrates that the new French President recognizes his Jewishness:\n\"In an interview Nicolas Sarkozy gave in 2004, he expressed an extraordinary understanding of the plight of the Jewish people for a home: \"Should I remind you the visceral attachment of every Jew to Israel, as a second mother homeland? There is nothing outrageous about it. Every Jew carries within him a fear passed down through generations, and he knows that if one day he will not feel safe in his country, there will always be a place that would welcome him. And this is Israel.\"\nThe AJN isn't the only publication to confirm that Sarkozy is a Jew. The UK's Guardian confirms it,[4] as does the Israeli National News,[5] the Jewish Telegraph Agency,[6] the Jewish Journal,[7] and the European Jewish News, here[8] and here.[9]\nThe Guardian even published an article entitled \"The tough, new president still loves his mum, France's real first lady,\"[10] now if that doesn't convince even the greatest skeptic that Nicolas is a \"good Jewish boy,\" I don't know what will.\nIn short, the bacon-eating atheist Jew is a liar, he knows very well that Nicolas Sarkozy is a Jew and the only reason he posted a critique of my article was on the off chance that a few ignorant Gentiles might read it.[11]\nThe BEAJ hates white people. It's obvious, all one need do is read the man's words. In his Judeophobe[12] critique of my article he refers to whites as \"whitey,\" and states the following:\n\"Any hoot, I'm sure you are now dumbfounded because by your own logic, you figured out that Joooos are the majority if include [sic] people like Sarkozy and Kerry. That is why you guys aren't in control, you dumb ass WHITEYS are the minority.\"\nOf course, the BEAJ wants his Gentile readers to believe that when he uses the word \"whitey,\" he is only referring to 'racist' whites, but we really have no reason to believe him. He is after all a proven liar [see above].\nOf the greatest interest, at least to me, is the BEAJ's comments concerning the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. He reiterates the boringly predictable denunciation of the Protocols, you know the one, they're fake, a fraud, a forgery, etc. Of course, he doesn't provide a link to them as I did in my article and am once again doing now [See the actual text of the Protocols of Zion here].[13] The Protocols were allegedly proven a fraud after a trial in Berne, Switzerland back in 1934. I'd remind Gentile readers that a well- publicized trial also found O.J. Simpson innocent of murder, despite the fact that he was obviously guilty. I'd remind readers that most recently a Jewish judge, Jewish prosecutor and Jewish Medical Examiner also allegedly found no evidence that Anna Nicole Smith's Jewish husband, Howard Stern, murdered her and her son, despite the fact that even the dullest Fox News viewer isn't very convinced of Stern's alleged innocence. In reality, trials mean very little, especially when a Jewish media is reporting on them, as they did after the 1934 Berne Protocols case. This hasn't changed much over the last 73 years, i.e. Iraq and WMD.\nAs far as the BEAJ's assertion that the Protocols are fake, but his unwillingness to provide a link to them, consider these words written more than 50 years ago:\n\"The claim of the Jews that the Protocols are forgeries is in itself an admission of their genuineness, for they [Jews] NEVER ATTEMPT TO ANSWER THE FACTS corresponding to the THREATS which the Protocols contain, and, indeed, the correspondence between prophecy and fulfillment is too glaring to be set aside or obscured. This, the Jews well know and therefore evade.\"[14]\nBEAJ apparently accepts the fact that Jews are disproportionately represented in the fields I mentioned in my article as he utilizes the same by now predictable and dogmatic response:\n\"The bottom line is that Joooos are generally better-educated and usually wind up with white collar jobs. Joooos don't prevent WHITEY from doing the same thing. The West is about capitalism, and whatever Jooooish entertainers, Jooooish politicians?, and media moguls do must be liked by the overwhelming majority of the population, or they'd be out of business.\"\nOf course, I disagree with him. In fact, when I wrote the article, I accurately predicted some critic would emerge with the BEAJ's argument, that's why I included the following in my article:\n\"All of us have been thoroughly indoctrinated with the idea that Jews are indeed special and highly ambitious and this is supposed to explain their large showings in politics, academia, the sciences, the media, etc. I personally think it far more likely that a Jewish stranglehold on OUR media better explains these discrepancies, I am not particularly impressed by their alleged abilities, after all, look around you; is the world really a better place with Jews at the helm?\"\nIn short, the BEAJ does nothing but reinforce my argument that many Jews, not necessarily Zionists alone, are part and parcel of a growing problem in the west. Most of them tend to collaborate with criminal and Talmudic Jews, which makes them complicit. As I have said over and over, it is *organized* Jewry, which include propagandists like the BEAJ that seek to silence criticism by way of hate crime/hate speech legislation. I can't tell you how often I am lambasted by Jews for writing about this, but nonetheless it's a fact. I wrote about this in \"Let's Talk about Jews and Elections\" when I penned the following:\n\"In the beginning of this article, I noted the fact that France now has a Jewish President. I did this solely to point out in the end, that this phenomenon is not isolated to America, it has plagued Europe for decades and is the real reason Europe has passed draconian \"hate crime\" and \"hate speech\" legislation which has resulted in the imprisonment of thousands of European patriots. Jewish politicians are the primary force behind the passage of these laws, just as they are in the United States. These Jews hide behind the cloak of other minorities by using them as if they were the crux of concern, but in fact, these laws are designed for no other reason than to prevent exposure and criticism of ethnic Jews and their Supremacist policies/agenda.\"[15]\nThe fact of the matter is, JEWS are behind pushing \"hate crime\" legislation through Congress and they will pull out all stops in their effort to rearrange the Constitution to fit their needs.\nThe largest Jewish publication in the world, The Forward, reinforces this fact with this recent article entitled \"Jewish Groups Set To Fight Veto of Hate-Crimes Bill.\"[16] In it, the attentive reader will find the following:\n\"Jewish organizations are playing a leading role in the coalition pushing the bill, with almost all of them - except the Orthodox ones - taking action to promote the passage of the measure. The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crime Prevention Act of 2007 passed the House floor last week, in a 237-180 vote. The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to begin debating the bill within two weeks.\"[17]\nSo there you have it - not from an alleged anti-Semite, but from the world's largest Jewish publication, The Forward.\nLastly, lest you still sympathize with these people and in order to reinforce what kind of person the bacon-eating atheist Jew really is, consider what he and his compatriots wrote to and about a 14- year old girl, Stefania Glenn, the daughter of Mark Glenn:\n\"You're the ugly one, you sicialian wop whore. You're people are related to Arabs. Hell, you married an Arab. What is Marc Glenns REAL last name. You're a Papist whore. Go back to North Africa and take your swarthy southern italian mafia with you'[18]\nOr this one from the atheist Jew himself:[19]\n\"'You really are a stupid freak. You are a common retard. You have no argument. Nothing but an imbecile. You have an inferior complex, maybe because you are an Arab, I don't know. Fuck off and die. You have kids. Hopefully they didn't inherit your self loathing and inferiority and low IQ. If they did they did and think like you, they should have been aborted. You are a sad sad twerp'\nBenevolent and altruistic people, no?\nWake up America; you're being taken for a ride.\nYou really are a moron to reprint this idiocy.\nI'll ask you, is Sarkozy a Jew? He was neither a religious Jew or a Jew according to his maternal bloodline.\nA Jew is only a Jew if they converted by religion or if their mother was a Jew.\nA mother who does not convert to Judaism even if they are married to an ethnic Jew cannot have Jewish children.\nThis is confusing to retards like Chris Womak and Curtis Maynard.\nBecause where do they draw the line? If a grandparent is a Jew, does that mean the kids are all Jews? Or a great grandparent?\nIf they accept stuff like that, there are a heck of a lot more than 15 million Jews in the world.\nYou might even be a Jew too.\nOh, and you must really truly be an idiot. That much is evident. I'll be curious if you even answer the question about Sarkozy and if it is yes, please give a reason.\nNedakrapp said...\nGoyim (Non Jews, Gentiles) are mentally inferior to Jews and can\u2019t run their nations properly. For their sake and ours, we need to abolish their governments and replace them with a single government. This will take a long time and involve much bloodshed, but it\u2019s for a good cause. Here\u2019s what we\u2019ll need to do:\nhttp://iamthewitness.com/Protocols.in.Modern.English.htm\nA Jew will take on any guise to fool the goyim, even as far as professing to be of another faith, they did this in Spain during the Inquisition.\nHey Krapp Boy, the Protocols are a know forgery of a spoof.\nOnly retards are victims to believing they are true.\nYes, you are a retarded victim.\nHenry Ford believed in the validity of the Protocols and only recanted and apologized after the poor, persecuted and powerless Jews threatened to destroy the Ford Motor Company. As we all know though, Ford was never truly sorry and never admitted to signing the apology the Jews forced out of him.\nAn excellent article that goes into detail about this and other uncomfortable facts associated with the poor, persecuted and oppressed Jew can be found in this article by Curt Maynard entitled \"Anti-Semitism, the Provocative Accusation.\"\nhttp://pcapostate.blogspot.com/2006/08/anti-semitism-provocative-accusation.html",

        "raw_content": "With: Tika Sumpter, Parker Sawyers, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Phillip Edward Van Lear, Jerod Haynes, Tom McElroy\nWritten by: Richard Tanne\nDirected by: Richard Tanne\nMPAA Rating: PG-13 for brief strong language, smoking, a violent image and a drug reference\nThe Past and the President\nHalf of the population of the United States won't bother seeing Southside with You, but the other half is in for a surprisingly delightful little treat. It takes place over a single day, a date between a man and a woman that has its little hiccups, but otherwise goes pretty well. Hovering over the course of the day is the sense of a future that's wide open, a sense of hope \u2014 not necessarily for the future of the country (lest you're a Republican) but for the future of a single person (or two) who dares to dream. The happy ending of this story has been written, and it's real.\nWritten and directed by Richard Tanne, Southside with You doesn't disguise the fact that this story is about young Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson. It's the summer of 1989, and Barack is in Chicago, working as an intern in her law firm. He asks her to go with him to a community meeting (\"it's not a date!\"), but definitely intends to put whatever smooth moves on her that he can manage. Barack is not painted as a saint. He smokes, and his car is a POS with a hole in the floor (Michelle nervously notices the road going by under her feet).\nBefore the meeting, they go to a museum and check out paintings by Ernie Barnes, whose work I recognized from the cover of Marvin Gaye's I Want You album, but also (I didn't know this) painted for the TV show \"Good Times.\" Barack impresses Michelle with his knowledge, and even recites Gwendolyn Brooks's poem \"We Real Cool\" for her. At the community meeting, Barack is invited to speak and he does, further impressing her with his incredible oratory skills; further, a roomful of worshipful women keep telling Michelle about how wonderful he is.\nLater, she's skeptical, suspecting that the whole thing is was a ruse. Even so, there's no storming out, or weeping, or any other bloated, oversized drama. They continue to talk, telling stories about their lives (some of them about some not-so-proud moments), eating sandwiches, drinking a beer, and debating the best Stevie Wonder album (Michelle think it's Talking Book, while Barack insists that it's Innervisions). The day ends with a showing of Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing, a discussion of it, a blowout, and then... hope.\nA word about the movie's actors. Parker Sawyers portrays Barack Obama, and he's rather astounding. He doesn't do a precise Obama impersonation, but somehow becomes him nonetheless. I'm not sure how much \u2014 if any \u2014 makeup was used to transform him, but in certain shots, in silhouette, he could actually be the president. Tika Sumpter is Michelle, and she looks a bit less like her real-life counterpart, but still comes across as smart, beautiful, competent, and a little insecure. Hers is the real star-making performance, I think, not hurt by the fact that she's astonishingly beautiful. I expect we'll be seeing a lot more of her.\nThe movie is being compared, obviously, to Richard Linklater's Before Sunset (2004), which is apt, but the two films are also quite different. For one thing, Linklater has his own particular rhythms that cannot be copied, and for another, that movie's ending was wide open. This one is not, but it doesn't necessarily look forward to drone strikes or birth certificate debates or whatever else. It looks forward to the idea that a man (or a woman) can suddenly say, \"I'm going to be president someday.\" That this can actually happen, is amazing. That two people can meet and fall in love, is magic.\nLionsgate's Blu-ray release is a perfectly fine transfer of a movie whose strengths are more in the writing and characters than in the audio and visual. It should play extremely well at home. Director Tanne provides a commentary track, and there are a series of short \"original artwork and animations,\" plus a trailer.",

South Hedland\u2019s Wanangkura Stadium opened in July 2012, with the $34 million sporting and recreation centre garnering comparisons to the new Perth Arena. South Hedland has emerged with a fresh, open-air outlook. Shady, tree-lined landscaping links South Hedland\u2019s shopping centre to the town square. The square features a grassy outdoor amphitheatre, a shaded marketplace, a water play area and cooling water misters. Interactive sculptures by local artists and landscaped open spaces showcase the area, hosting outdoor markets and movie nights. Thanks to additional funding of almost $54 million from the State Government\u2019s Royalties for Regions initiative, LandCorp and the Town of Port Hedland are halfway through Stage Two. This will unlock land currently vacant in the centre of town for a new library, council offices and an expansion of the aquatic centre. Stage Two will provide a further 750 dwellings and open up land for a dedicated entertainment precinct, which could feature a cinema, restaurants, cafes, a bar and boutique shops.

        "raw_content": "Company Name: Brad Tucker \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nAddress: 1204 S Bloomington St, Greencastle, IN 46135\nCommercial Truck Financing In: Greencastle, Indiana\nMany companies need to operate large vehicles like trucks for company purposes and many other day-to-day operations. There are certain concerns and requirements which are significant if you are taking these cars into account. The first and the most significant idea is commercial truck insurance. It is truly essential for your business and the process to get one is similar to every other automobile insurance. Nevertheless, it could be a little complex as compared to other kinds of insurance. You\u2019ll be able to get your commercial truck insurance from any insurance company. You can also hire an agent if you believe you don\u2019t want to finish all the processes on your own. However, you should consider or take into consideration specific variables which are significant while trying to get insurance. Let\u2019s see the essential information and factors that will be crucial while trying to get the necessary procedure.\nYou have to have particular technical information regarding the truck. Note down information like model number, mileage and year of production of the vehicle. Additionally take down the vehicle number and id. You have to consider all these matters before trying to get the insurance. You can readily locate these records in areas like the dash or near the windshield. Another thing that needs to be considered is the companies that provide commercial insurance for vehicles. It really is accurate that you will locate many insurance companies in the market. However, you must remember that all the insurance companies usually do not offer commercial insurance. So, this really is a thing that you will have to research about and discover which companies offer this sort of insurance before taking the following step.\nYou will find many online companies that also offer good rates and insurance policies. Nevertheless, you need to be cautious while choosing for these kinds of insurance because it\u2019s more complicated as opposed to other types of vehicle insurance. You have to study the website of the company and read the stipulations very carefully. Sometimes you might not get all the information through the company web site and therefore, you\u2019ll need to contact them in case you have any query or desire more details. If you desire you can contact many companies and ask them for their quotations and policies. It is possible to then afterwards determine which firm suits you the best and is more beneficial for you. After you determine which firm is the finest you can proceed with the program process. The sales broker of the business will lead you through the complete procedure. It\u2019s possible for you to advise the brokerage about your company background and what kind of coverage is needed. The most important idea is budget. You are going to also need to keep your budget in mind before choosing any policy. Different policies supply different types of coverage and have different rates and prices. You should pick the best plan for yourself. Consequently, this was some vital information about commercial truck insurance and a few of the factors that must be considered before picking one.\nLazo Finance Brokers\nCheryll Hill \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nSteven Lefler \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent",

        "title": "The proposed PII reforms \u2013 who benefits? | Feature | Communities - The Law Society",
        "raw_content": "The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) has published a series of proposed changes to the system of professional indemnity insurance (PII), and to the Compensation Fund. The SRA wants to reduce the minimum levels of insurance cover that regulated firms must hold. Currently, firms must hold either \u00a32m or \u00a33m of cover, and the SRA intends to reduce those minimum levels to \u00a31m for firms which do conveyancing, and just \u00a3500,000 for all other firms. They have also proposed a number of exclusions, for example for business clients who have a turnover in excess of \u00a32m a year.\nAs the representative body for the solicitors\u2019 profession, the Law Society will be submitting our analysis of the SRA\u2019s proposals. But one of the questions we are left with is: who will benefit from these reforms?\nWill small firms benefit?\nLet\u2019s look at two types of small firm.\nSmall Firm A decides that as a result of the SRA\u2019s proposed changes, it will reduce its level of cover down from \u00a32m to \u00a3500,000. Will Firm A benefit?\nWell, it could see a slight reduction in its insurance premium. The SRA estimates that firms which move down to the new minimums will see a nine to 17 per cent reduction in what they pay for their insurance. However, the insurance industry has expressed scepticism about whether these savings will eventuate. We know, from the SRA\u2019s published data, that 98 per cent of claims come in below \u00a3580,000, so it\u2019s hard to imagine that there will be significant savings to premiums, and nine to 17 per cent seems on the high side. But Firm A might see some saving to its annual premium.\nBut savings to premiums don\u2019t come for free, so what would Firm A lose by way of protection? Well, it loses 75 per cent of the cover that it previously had. Now, if a \u00a31m claim comes its way, it will not have insurance protection. Also, if it provides legal services to business clients with turnover of more than \u00a32m a year, its insurance would not cover them. In that case, Small Firm A would be faced with the unenviable choice of turning down work from these clients, or buying a top-up insurance policy that would be likely to wipe out any savings it had received. It\u2019s hard to see that, with a more than 75 per cent loss of cover, in exchange for minimal reductions in premiums, Firm A would benefit from the proposed changes.\nSmall Firm B decides that, despite the fact that the SRA has made changes, it wants to maintain its current levels of insurance cover. This means that Firm B wants \u00a32m of cover, and it wants conveyancing activities to be included, as well as business clients, regardless of turnover. Will Firm B benefit from these changes?\nThe answer is no. It\u2019s likely that Firm B will need to devote more time to purchasing insurance cover, from more providers, and will most likely have to pay more for that cover.\nRather than simply buying insurance at the level of the current minimum terms and conditions, Firm B will have to engage with a much more complex set of purchasing decisions. As well as buying cover at the new minimum terms and conditions, it will need to add on conveyancing cover, purchase top-up cover so it is covered up to \u00a32m, and add on cover for business clients with turnovers above \u00a32m. This is hardly reducing red tape for Firm B.\nThat isn\u2019t the end of the bad news for Firm B. When selling top-up cover, insurers are not obliged to make that cover as robust as the minimum terms, so it is unlikely that that cover will be as comprehensive as Firm B would have received prior to the SRA\u2019s changes.\nIn addition, Firm B may well end up paying higher premiums after the SRA\u2019s changes than it did before. We know from the Law Society\u2019s PII survey that between 2014-15 and 2016-17, the average cost of an insurance policy at the minimum terms and conditions fell by 8.9 per cent, and the average cost of top-up cover rose by 12.4 per cent. The impact of these changes will be to require Firm B to buy more of the increasingly expensive top-up cover, and less of the cheapening minimum terms cover.\nWill large firms benefit?\nLarge Firm C has always bought cover far in excess of the minimum terms and conditions set by the regulator. So Firm C will certainly not see any cost reductions as a result of these changes, and therefore won\u2019t see any benefits.\nIt\u2019s fair to assume that Firm C will be better placed to engage with the complexity of the insurance market than a small firm would be.\nHowever, Firm C could lose out from the changes. An increasing proportion of its insurance will be top-up cover, which is likely to be more costly and less comprehensive than minimum terms cover.\nWill clients benefit?\nClients are not experts in legal services regulation, and nor should we expect them to be. When a client walks into a solicitor\u2019s office, they want help with their legal problem, and they will not be worrying what level of insurance cover their solicitor might have. Unfortunately, as a result of these changes, clients can no longer simply rely on the fact that their solicitor has at least \u00a32m of cover.\nWhat we do know, as a result of these changes, is that the protections clients receive will be less comprehensive and robust than they were before. And clients are unlikely to see any appreciable savings to their bills.\nThe following table (based on Legal Services Board research into the pricing of legal services and the Law Society\u2019s annual PII survey) shows the minimal savings that are likely to come about if the reforms work precisely as the SRA hopes\nSample legal services\nMean price of legal services in 2017, according to LSB\nMean price of legal services passing on 17% saving on PII\nProjected savings for clients\nA sale of a freehold property\nAn uncontested divorce requiring a full legal service\nAn individual standard will\nSo who will benefit?\nInsurers stand to benefit, to the extent that their liability will be substantially decreased, while any reductions in premiums that they choose to pass on to solicitors will be so insubstantial that it will hardly affect their bottom line. But, nevertheless, there has been little public support for the changes.\nThe SRA will benefit, if it succeeds in its attempt to shift the burden of regulating small firms from themselves to the insurance industry.\nRead our briefing on the proposed changes",

        "title": "Share Capital Basic",
        "raw_content": "Share Capital Basic\nInformation on this page is a complex subject. It cannot replace professional advice. It:\nexplains the basics of share capital;\napplies to all companies incorporated in England, Wales or Scotland with a share capital, whether private or public;\ntells you what information must be delivered to Companies House; and\ncovers the regulation of:\nauthorised share capital, allotment and cancellation of shares;\ntypes of shares, restructuring share capital and share transfer.\nYou will find the relevant law in the Companies Act 1985 (as amended).\nWhen a company is formed, the person or people forming it decide whether its members' liability will be limited by shares. The memorandum of association (one of the documents by which the company is formed) will state:\nthe amount of share capital the company will have; and\nthe division of the share capital into shares of a fixed amount.\nThe members must agree to take some, or all, of the shares when the company is registered. The memorandum of association must show the names of the people who have agreed to take shares and the number of shares each will take. These people are called the subscribers.\nThe amount of share capital stated in the memorandum of association is the company's 'authorised' capital.\nMaximum and minimum share capital\nThere is no maximum to any company's authorised share capital and no minimum share capital for private limited companies. However, a public limited company must have an authorised share capital of at least \u00a350,000 (and, if it is trading, issued capital of \u00a350,000).\nAlter authorised share capital\nA company can increase its authorised share capital by passing an ordinary resolution (unless its articles of association require a special or extraordinary resolution). A copy of the resolution - and notice of the increase on Form 123 - must reach Companies House within 15 days of being passed. No fee is payable to Companies House.\nA company can decrease its authorised share capital by passing an ordinary resolution to cancel shares which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person. Notice of the cancellation, on Form 122, must reach Companies House within one month. No fee is payable to Companies House.\nFor information about resolutions see Resolutions.\nIssued capital is the value of the shares issued to shareholders. This means the nominal value of the shares rather than their actual worth. The amount of issued capital cannot exceed the amount of the authorised capital.\nA company need not issue all its capital at once, but a public limited company must have at least \u00a350,000 of allotted share capital. Of this, 25% of the nominal value of each share and any premium must be paid up before it can can get a trading certificate allowing it to commence business and borrow.\nGetting a \"Certificate to commence business and borrow\":\nTo obtain a trading certificate, a new company incorporated as a plc, must deliver a statutory declaration on Form 117 confirming that its share capital is at least the statutory minimum. The Registrar will then issue a certificate entitling it to do business and borrow.\nA company may increase its issued capital by allotting more shares but only up to the maximum allowed by its authorised capital. Allotments must only be done under proper authority.\nA public company may offer shares to the general public. Share offers to the public are made in a prospectus or are accompanied by listing particulars.\nA private company is normally restricted to issuing shares to its members, to staff and their families and to debenture holders. However, by private arrangement, the company may issue shares to anyone it chooses.\nReduce issued capital\nA company cannot normally reduce its issued capital as this is the personal property of the shareholders, not of the company. However, the following exceptions apply:\nif a court order confirms a \"minute of reduction\" following a special resolution of the company;\nif shares are redeemed (bought back) in accordance with a redemption contract;\nif the company's articles allow it to buy its own shares and this purchase is authorised by a special resolution. A public company whose shares are listed on a recognised investment exchange can either cancel those shares or hold them \"in treasury\" for resale or transfer to an employees\" shares scheme at a later date. In all other cases the shares are regarded as cancelled when the company buys them back, although this does not reduce the company's authorised share capital.\nFor more information about shares, share transfers, and redemption and purchase of own shares.\n\"Allotment\" is the process by which people become members of a company. Subscribers to a company's memorandum agree to take shares on incorporation and the shares are regarded as 'allotted' on incorporation.\nLater, more people may be admitted as members of the company and are allotted shares. However, the directors must not allot shares without the authority of the existing shareholders. The authority will either be stated in the company's articles of association or given to the directors by resolution passed at a general meeting of the company.\nResolution to allot shares\nAny public or private company with share capital may give authority by ordinary resolution. The authority must be for a fixed period of up to five years. Any ordinary resolution giving, varying, revoking or renewing an authority to allot shares must be delivered to Companies House within 15 days of being passed.\nA private company with share capital may pass an \"elective resolution\", to give authority for any fixed period, which may be longer than five years or for an indefinite period. An elective resolution must also be delivered to Companies House within 15 days of being passed.\nNotification of Companies House of shares which made to the public\nDon't need to be. With effect from 1 July 2005, prospectuses and listing particulars are no longer required to be registered at Companies House. However, the general rule is that a person may not make an offer of securities to the public in the UK, or seek admission to trading on a regulated market in the UK, unless a prospectus approved by the Management Services Authority has been published.\nFor more information on these requirements, please contact the Management Services Authority (www.fsa.gov.uk or telephone 020 7066 1000).\nNotification of Companies House when an allotment of shares has been made\nRequired. Within one month of the allotment of shares, a return on Form 88(2) must be delivered to Companies House. No fee is payable to Companies House.\nA return of allotments must reach Companies House within one month of the first date of allotment. If shares are allotted over a period of time, particularly in a rights issue, it is not acceptable to delay delivery until all the shares have been allotted if this means the form will be late. Instead, you should complete consecutive forms and deliver them within one month of the first allotment stated on each form.\nNote: in the case of a rights issue, the date(s) of allotment will usually be the date(s) on which the shares are allotted following receipt by the company of acceptances/renunciations NOT the date on which provisional allotment letters are issued.\nIf the shares are to be paid for in cash, you must enter details of the actual amount paid (or due to be paid) on the form. Do not include any amount that is not yet due for payment on a partly paid-up share. The amount will reflect the nominal value of the shares and any premium.\nNominal value and share premium:\nA company's authorised share capital is divided into shares of a nominal value. The real value of the shares may change over time, reflecting what the company is worth, but their nominal value remains the same. When the company sells shares for more than their nominal value, the actual sum paid will be in two parts - the nominal value and a share premium. The share premium must be recorded separately in the company's financial records in a 'share premium account'.\nIf the shares are to be allotted for a non-cash payment, the amount entered on the form against \"Amount (if any) paid or due on each\" must be \"nil\" or \"0.00\".\nShares at the time of allotment\nPayment may be deferred until later. However, shares allotted in a public company must be paid-up to at least a quarter of their nominal value and the whole of any premium (except that this does not apply to shares allotted under an employees' share scheme, that is, a scheme for encouraging share ownership by employees, former employees and their families).\nAs a general rule, a company may allot bonus shares to members as fully paid-up. A company which has funds available for the purpose may also pay up any amounts unpaid on its shares.\nA company's shares must not be allotted at a discount (that is, for an amount less than the nominal value of the shares).\nPayment for shares in cash\nPayment can be in goods, services, property, good will, know-how, or even shares in another company. The latter is often used when one company takes over another. It also includes cash payments to any person other than the company allotting the shares.\nPublic companies are more restricted in what they may accept in payment for shares and non-cash payments must be valued before shares are allotted (except in the case of bonus issues, mergers or arrangements whereby shares in another company are cancelled or transferred to the company). A copy of the valuation report must be delivered to Companies House with Form 88(2).\nGenerally shares may be allotted for payment:\nwholly for cash;\npartly for cash and partly for a non-cash payment; or\nwholly for a non-cash payment.\nPaid up in cash:\nA share is paid up in cash if the amount due is received by the company (in cash or by cheque, or the company has been released from a liquidated liability) or an undertaking has been given to pay cash to the company at a future date. \"Cash\" includes foreign currency.\nInformation if allotments\nForm 88(2) must show the extent to which the shares are to be treated as paid-up. This must be stated as a percentage of the total amount payable in respect of the nominal value and any premium.\nCalculating the extent to which shares are paid-up:\nIf an allotment is partly for cash and partly for a non-cash payment, then the extent to which the shares are treated as paid-up must include the cash and non-cash elements. For example, a \u00a31 share allotted for 50p in cash ( either paid or due and payable ) and 50p in services is still 100% paid-up. If the shares were allotted at a premium, the percentage includes the nominal value of each share and the premium.\nForm 88(2) must also include a brief description of the non-cash payment for which the shares were allotted (for example, 'in return for the transfer of 100 ordinary shares of \u00a31 in XYZ limited' or \"capitalisation of reserves\"). It must be accompanied by the written contract under which title of the shares is constituted.\nIf there is no written contract, a Form 88(3) must be delivered to Companies House with Form 88(2) within one month of the allotment. No fee is payable to Companies House. Form 88(3) is not acceptable when there is a written contract.\nAcquiring shares for a non-cash payment involves the transfer of property, which may amount to a chargeable transaction under the Stamp Acts.\nPlease note: For contracts entered into after 30 November 2003, there is no need to have the written contract or Form 88(3) stamped by the Inland Revenue.\nIf authorised by its articles, a company may resolve to use any undistributed profits, or any sum credited to the company's \"share premium account\" or \"capital redemption reserve\" to finance an issue of wholly or partly paid up 'bonus' shares to the members in proportion to their existing holdings. The shareholders to whom the shares are issued pay nothing. Since the issue may reduce the amount of money available for paying dividends, the term 'bonus' is not always appropriate. The correct term is 'capitalisation of reserves' or \"capitalisation of profits\" but the terms 'scrip -' or ' scrip - issue' are also used to describe such shares.\nA company can also use a capitalisation of profits to credit partly paid shares with further amounts to make them paid up.\nThe allotment of bonus shares must be notified to Companies House on Form 88(2). The amount paid or due on each share is \"nil\"or \"0.00\" and the shares are shown as paid up \"otherwise than in cash\".\nIn addition, if a listed public company issues bonus shares in respect of shares held in treasury, the company must notify Companies House on Form 169(1B). Stamp duty is not payable. No fee is payable to Companies House.\nThese are the rights of existing members to be offered new shares by the company. 'Pre-emption' rights give members the opportunity to accept or reject a share offer before the company offers new shares elsewhere.\nNote: pre-emption rights do not apply to allotments of shares that are issued as wholly or partly paid-up for a non-cash payment or shares in an employees' share scheme. (An employees' share scheme means a scheme for encouraging share ownership by employees, former employees and their families.)\nThe memorandum or articles of a private company may exclude pre-emption rights; however, a public company's cannot.\nThe Companies Act 1985 allows a company to pass a special resolution not to apply pre-emption rights. This is known as the 'disapplication of pre-emption rights'. The resolution will apply to one specific allotment; a further resolution is needed if similar conditions were to apply to further allotments. A copy of the special resolution must be delivered to Companies House within 15 days of being passed. No fee is payable to Companies House.\nRefusing to pay for shares\nA member is liable to pay up the nominal value of each of his shares and the amount owing to the company is a debt which can be 'called up'.\nIf a member refuses to pay all or any call on a share, the company may use forfeiture proceedings if permitted by its articles. A typical procedure is set out in paragraphs 18-22 of Table A of The Companies (Tables A to F) Regulations 1985 (if alternative provisions have not been adopted). As these proceedings are of a penal nature the regulations must be followed exactly, otherwise the court may declare forfeiture proceedings void.\nA forfeited share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of at the discretion of the directors. Companies House need not be notified of the forfeiture or re-allotment except in the list of members on the company's next annual return.\nIf a member cannot pay a call on shares, and if the member and the company agree, the shares may be surrendered to the company. This has the same effect as forfeiture but avoids the formal procedure. The company may only accept surrender if it could have used its power of forfeiture.\nA private company may hold forfeited shares indefinitely pending re-allotment. A public company must cancel the forfeited shares if they are not otherwise disposed of after three years. If the cancellation were to reduce a public company's allotted capital below the statutory minimum, it would have to re-register as a private company.\nA company cannot use forfeited shares for the purposes of voting.\nPaid-up capital, uncalled capital, reserve capital and share premium\nThese terms are used to describe the make-up of a company's share capital:\npaid-up capital is the issued capital which has been fully or partly paid-up by the shareholders;\nuncalled capital is that part of the issued capital on which the company has not requested payment;\nreserve capital is that part of the share capital that the company has decided will only be called up if the company is being wound up and for the purposes of it being wound up;\nshare premium is the excess paid above a share's nominal value. This excess must be recorded separately in the company\"s financial records in a 'share premium account' and used for the purposes specified in Section 130 of the Companies Act 1985 (for example, in paying up unissued shares to be allotted to members as fully paid-up bonus shares.)\nAs an example, if a company issues 1,000 shares with a nominal value of \u00a31 each, paid-up to 20% of their nominal value with a 10% reserve and a share premium of 50p, the capital is:\npaid-up capital = \u00a3200 (1,000 x \u00a30.20)\nreserve capital = \u00a3100 (1,000 x \u00a30.10)\nuncalled capital = \u00a3700 (1,000 x \u00a30.70)\nshare premium = \u00a3500 (1,000 x \u00a30.50)",

        "raw_content": "Dogs and Cats with Disabilities/Senior Dogs and Cats\nSpice, a senior dog\nBear is 12 years old\nPete at age 17 (front)\nEloise (behind Pete)\nAs dogs age, what they need and are able to do physically changes over time. Being the sole dog walker for many years has great benefits with respect to the relationship between the dog and the walker. In becoming so familiar with a dog I walk for five days a week, year after year, I see the physical limitations and capabilities for each dog I care for. I have years of experience offering supportive care, whether that is a dog who needs to be carried up and down stairs, using a sling to support a dog going up and down the stairs, or a slow walk that is based upon what the dog is able to do. Older dogs need a dog walker who is paying close attention on the walk, as they are fragile, often in pain from arthritis, and falling down can lead to injuries which an older dog cannot withstand.\nDogs with Disabilities\nLuke-lives with epilepsy\nDogs of any age with a physical or medical disability present unique challenges to both the guardian and the dog walker. A good working relationship and effective communication between the guardian and the dog walker is important to ensure careful monitoring of the dog\u2019s status and also if medication is to be given. A good understanding of the disability and the limitations the dog struggles with is needed in order to tailor the walk to the dog\u2019s abilities. I have worked with dogs who are blind, deaf, partially paralyzed, dogs with epilepsy, and dogs who developed peripheral vestibular syndrome (who both recovered).\nBear Hug has asthma and hypothyroidism\nSolly is 17 years old. He needs to be carried down the stairs & is very fragile.\nDaisy is 16 years old. She struggles with Hyperthroidism & a hernia; she needs liquid & transdermal medication.\nPedro needs oral medication twice daily for his heart condition\nLittle Boy lived to be 18 years old\nWillie at age 17\nThe same is true for cats as they age; what they are able to do changes over time, although they are not being taken out on walks. Greater care and sensitivity is required as they become more fragile and struggle with various medical conditions, even arthritis. Cats need to be monitored more closely as they age, and having a long term relationship with one pet sitter is once again, an important part in being able to tell what is normal and what is not. I have worked with many cats over the years who are older; one cat I cared for many years lived to be 17, and I cared for two cats who reached the incredible age of 22.\nCats with Disabilities\nBunny (spinal defect/joint fusion in hind feet)\nCats with disabilities can present various challenges for both the guardian and the pet sitter. The cats I have cared for who have had physical disabilities needed support with eating and using the litter box. Sometimes it was physically helping them to eat, supporting them as they ate, or assisting them as they got out of the litter box. Often these were cats with neurological issues, or who had physical disabilities from a birth defect or being hit by a car prior to being taken in by the guardian.\nFees for work with animals with disabilities varies with the amount of time and work involved.",

As the president of new ventures at the Kaufman Organization, he knows the power of a slow burn.\nLeffel, 67, isn\u2019t scared of complexity. In fact, he welcomes it with open arms. A graduate of the University of Virginia and a brazen fan of its basketball team, he has close to 40 years of experience in law and commercial real estate\u2014from brokerage and investment sales to investment banking and acquisitions. He takes pride in his new ventures team\u2019s ability to be patient and calculated in structuring dense, complicated deals and isn\u2019t scared to invest the time needed to close a transaction.\nHe was lured to the Kaufman Organization\u2014after a long stint in investment sales at London-based services provider Savills\u2014eight years ago by its chairman, George Kaufman, to head up the firm\u2019s then-new ventures platform. The company may have found its perfect match. Leffel\u2019s background coupled with his personal philosophies on how to operate in the industry gel well with that of Kaufman Organization\u2014one of the oldest (founded in 1909) and most reputable real estate companies in New York City. Neither are willing to engage in overly aggressive or stubborn deal-making.\nKaufman closed six Midtown South acquisitions in the last two years\u2014most recently a 99-year ground lease at 236 Fifth Avenue between West 27th and 28th Streets\u2014and eight since the division was launched in 2009. Commercial Observer met with Leffel at his office at 450 Seventh Avenue between West 34th and West 35th Streets to discuss the company\u2019s Midtown South footprint, acquisition strategy and penchant for off-market deals.\nCommercial Observer: What\u2019s your focus as the head of the new ventures division at Kaufman?\nFred Leffel: We acquire office properties on a value-add basis in New York City. We look to reposition, upgrade or repurpose those buildings to a higher and better standard. It involves a business plan, physical work to the building, new leasing and a marketing strategy for the building. We have to know who our tenants are to attract them\u2014or if there even are any tenants to attract for a project.\nWhy office assets specifically?\nIn creating this division we wanted to take advantage of our strengths and our core competencies\u2014to use an overworked phrase\u2014to try to attract institutional capital. That was what we were most comfortable with because we already had so much knowledge in house.\nWe haven\u2019t done as many deals as a lot of people, the deals aren\u2019t as large as a lot of people, and we don\u2019t get as much publicity as other firms\u2014but we\u2019re just careful. George Kaufman was not a cowboy and [Kaufman Organization President] Steve Kaufman is not a cowboy\u2014he\u2019s very careful about what he does.\nHow does that approach fit with your knowledge and background?\nI worked at CIBC [Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce], which is one of the biggest banks in Canada and, in fact, one of the biggest banks in North America. If you know anything about Canadian banks, they\u2019re very stodgy and very conservative. The bad news is that, from 2000 to 2008, they made a fraction of what Lehman Brothers made. The flip side is they\u2019re still around. They didn\u2019t suffer the [same] problems. There\u2019s a good and a bad side [to it]. You have to tone it down when everyone\u2019s going crazy [doing deals]. On the other hand, you survive for a long period of time. From time to time, I\u2019d like to do more deals, but my time at Kaufman has been very good.\nIt\u2019s interesting that you took on a role in a division for new ventures in the middle of the 2009 recession.\nThe recession was in full swing, but we were starting to come out of it. At that point, Kaufman had a long history and pristine credit rating. We\u2019ve never defaulted on a loan and have never given back a property\u2014and that\u2019s going through many cycles. So we were trying to leverage off of our terrific reputation and capabilities. Many other real estate companies\u2014to put it lightly\u2014weren\u2019t doing well, so the idea was to leverage off of the capabilities here because we operate a legacy portfolio of many buildings and have done so for a hundred years. We\u2019re full-service: leasing, management, fixing up buildings, developing. We thought we\u2019d be able to attract capital so we\u2019d have a competitive advantage in trying to seize on some of the opportunities that would be coming up.\nWas it smooth sailing for Kaufman at the time?\nWell, what we did with our new ventures platform was create a different model than what the firm had been operating under for all those years. It had operated very well, but essentially [we had] a portfolio of properties that had been acquired over the course of many years with small family partnerships. Going forward, if we were going to take advantage of the opportunities I mentioned before, we\u2019d have to do that with institutional capital partners\u2014which is something the firm had never done before. So, understanding how to attract capital to deals\u2014and also underwriting those deals because the firm wasn\u2019t used to buying distressed properties\u2014was us putting together a new business and a new psychology and way of looking at things.\nKaufman has a long history in Midtown South. Why?\nIt goes back to when there really were garment factories in the Garment District. Having loft buildings in that area was sort of an outgrowth, historically, based on the way the firm has grown. Those areas\u2014particularly Midtown South, Madison Square and the Flatiron District\u2014have blossomed in the past 20 years or so. I think it\u2019s largely a function of the change in the nature of the area to a quality residential area. That brought retail and restaurants to an area that was pretty moribund for decades, then the offices followed.\nHow has demand for specific asset classes shifted in the area?\nOne of the fascinating dynamics about Midtown South, particularly the Flatiron and Gramercy areas, is that there has been so much residential conversion there that any building that came up for sale that was zoned for residential was converted to residential\u2014apartments and in some cases hotels. [Historically] nobody would\u2019ve bought an existing building to convert it to office space because the residential values were so much higher. The inventory for office was shrinking dramatically, but at the same time the demand for that kind of space was exploding, which created a terrific dynamic that is still going on. As time went on, the demand rose because the residential [product] was bringing in certain types of people. There is a little bit of new development, but it\u2019s just a drop in the bucket. By far, there is more demand than there is supply. We saw that early on.\nThe first deal was in 2009, and at that point, buildings were cycling through the downturn, so there were actual foreclosures, and there was blood in the water. The timeframe within which there were opportunities was very brief because word got out fairly quickly and so investors from all over the world were looking to snatch up buildings\u2014and they still are. Midtown South is, I believe, the tightest office submarket in the country, if not the world, which is surprising because it\u2019s not a big market and there are very few buildings of size.\nFrom your standpoint, how\u2019s the health of the Midtown South office market today?\nThe market caters to an entrepreneurial segment of businesses in New York City as well as some other larger corporations that now want to relocate to the areas we\u2019re in and into the kinds of buildings we\u2019re in. I think it\u2019s the growth segment of the New York City economy. Our office business is very strong. It\u2019s slowed down from the hyperinflation of a few years ago, but it\u2019s very landlord-favorable. Looking forward, I think that\u2019s going to be true for a while. When it comes to the capital markets, I think it\u2019s totally out of whack. There\u2019s too much capital chasing too few deals, and the pricing is disturbing. The debt providers haven\u2019t been crazy, but equity investors have paid too much and they\u2019re going to be disappointed.\nYou closed on a long-term ground lease at 236 Fifth Avenue in September. What\u2019s your strategy there?\nThis was an off-market transaction. Recently, almost everything we\u2019ve been pursuing has been off-market\u2014not that we won\u2019t look at fully marketed deals through investment sales brokers. But, [the fully marketed deals] haven\u2019t been very productive for us. We\u2019ve had greater results mining the world of transactions below the radar screen. The building was under long-term ownership that consisted of three families who have a small business there\u2014but this is the only real estate asset they own. Initially, they were not interested, but we persisted. We have a great deal of experience with ground leases. The ground lease concept was attractive to them, but in the case of the ownership there was a generational issue\u2014as in the next generation wasn\u2019t interested in being in the business of leasing, owning and operating the building. The ground lease [sale] was appealing to them because they wouldn\u2019t have to pay the tax, they have an income for the next 99 years, which is substantial, and at the end of 99 years, their great grandchildren will get it back. And, if we screw up and can\u2019t pay the rent, they\u2019ll get it back before then.\nWhy has your organization been more interested in off-market deals as of late?\nWe\u2019ve found over the past couple of years that too much capital is chasing too few deals, and that phenomenon, coupled with the already low-interest rate and low-cap rate environment, has distorted pricing to the point that it\u2019s rare that we see a fully marketed deal where the pricing is compelling for us. At the same time, the off-market route has yielded better opportunities for us. It takes a lot of extra work to find the off-market deals and a lot more work to drag them across the finish line, but we\u2019re willing to spend that extra time and effort. We\u2019re not fund managers and therefore don\u2019t have the pressure of having to get massive amounts of dollars invested within a limited time frame. That gives us a bit of leeway in waiting to find the right deal and then spending the extra time and effort to get it closed.\nFred Leffel. Photo: Kaitlyn Flannagan/Commercial Observer\nHow does the firm typically fund acquisitions?\nIn terms of debt financing, we are very conservative. That\u2019s a legacy of the Kaufman Organization itself. We\u2019ve been around for so long and haven\u2019t lost any properties, and that\u2019s because the leverage has been very low. That\u2019s the way we\u2019ve operated our portfolio. There are many other owners who have the same philosophy as many buildings have no debt on them. In our new ventures, going forward, we try to keep the leverage to 50 or 55 percent. When you\u2019re at that kind of level, with the reputation we have among lenders, there\u2019s no problem getting debt financing, and the debt is very cheap\u2014although it\u2019s cheap all over right now. It gets more expensive as you go up the leverage scale, but if you keep it pretty conservative, lenders chase you to give you money. So, debt isn\u2019t the problem. More interesting is the equity, so we do these [transactions] in an operating partner model with an institutional capital partner. We have relationships with dozens of capital partners. We try to figure out what are the interesting features on this deal and who are the likely candidates as potential equity partners\u2014because they all have their own needs and idiosyncrasies. We have to spend a lot of time to find a partner who shares our vision.\nChina Orient Asset Management bought a majority stake in Kaufman\u2019s Ring Portfolio of Flatiron District office buildings last year. How did that come about?\nWe were in dialogue with the Ring brothers for a couple of years before the underlying deal between the Rings and Gary Barnett [the head of Extell Development Company] came to fruition. So we were aware of the properties and the opportunity they represented for us as a company, given our existing presence in the Midtown South submarket and our strengths in office repositioning. After Gary concluded his acquisition of the entire Ring portfolio, we were able to work out a deal with him on long-term ground leases of four of the properties. These were gut renovation jobs as all of the buildings had been vacant for years and were in serious stages of disrepair. After establishing a good working rapport with Gary and his people during the initial stages of repositioning these first four buildings, we were able to work out a similar deal with Gary for a fifth property. Our original capital partner on that first tranche of four properties was Principal Insurance. Principal\u2019s investment objective was a relatively short-term turnaround play, and after we completed the repositioning and lease up of those four properties, we recapitalized the principal with China Orient. In the end, it was a win-win for everyone, including Gary Barnett, who wound up selling his fee positions at a nice profit.\nHow has the influx of foreign capital in the city impacted the way your division does business? Any more Chinese investment interest?\nIt\u2019s no secret that there\u2019s a tremendous amount of capital seeking investment in New York City real estate, both domestic and foreign, and we talk regularly to representatives of both. In the past, domestic investors have had an easier time understanding our smaller building repositioning investment thesis. However, that has changed over the past couple of years as word has gotten out about the desirability and return potential of those types of investments, especially in areas like Midtown South. So now we are talking more seriously with Asian and European groups. As you know, we have closed several deals with China Orient. And that relationship has been great. They are smart investors and very reasonable to work with. On the other hand, we\u2019ll have to see how their government\u2019s currency control policies will affect the ability of China Orient and other Chinese capital sources to commit additional capital to U.S. real estate investment going forward.\nAre lenders overly aggressive right now?\nLenders are tripping over themselves to put out money. Not in a bad way. From 2005 to 2008, lenders were tripping over themselves to put out money as well, but they were stupid about it. Today, they have a lot of money to put out and rates are very cheap, but they\u2019ve been quite disciplined.\nTaking that into account, are you eyeing other acquisition opportunities in the city?\nSure, absolutely. We\u2019re very open-minded. We\u2019ve looked for a long time in the Financial District but haven\u2019t found the right opportunity\u2014although we have placed bids on a couple of buildings there. I think there are tremendous opportunities for our strategy in that area, but the difficulty we\u2019ve found is that so many of the buildings there are poorly designed for what we want to do with them. They have bad layouts and awkward corridors and a lot of windows that look out on a blank wall 10 feet away. That kind of space is hard to lease. There are very few buildings that have a good core and basic design to them. When we are made aware of those, we are very interested, but we haven\u2019t been successful just yet. But, the Financial District, Soho and Tribeca are very interesting to us.\n236 Fifth Avenue, 450 7th Avenue, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Channel, China Orient Asset Management, Features, Finance, Financial District, Flatiron District, Fred Leffel, garment district, Gary Barnett, Kaufman Organization, Madison Square, midtown south, More, Players, Savills, Soho, TriBeCa, University of Virginia",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Beauty \u00bb The Eclipse Micropen: What It Is and How It\u2019s Used\nThe Eclipse Micropen: What It Is and How It\u2019s Used\nSeptember 24, 2016\tBeauty\nThere have been many advances in the field of skin revitalization throughout the years. As technology evolves, so do the techniques and equipment. One of the most important recent advances is microneedling, which involves making small micro injuries in the skin that activate natural healing mechanisms to improve skin condition. The Eclipse Micropen makes the entire process possible. Here\u2019s what you need to know about it.\nWhat is the Eclipse Micropen?\nA micropen is the instrument that dermatological technicians in San Antonio use to perform the microneedling procedure. It\u2019s a small \u201cpen\u201d that has many needles to form the tip. It glides over the affected area of skin quickly and safely. Additionally, it\u2019s wireless, making it easy to reach any skin surface without difficulty. An Eclipse Micropen is much safer than older skin care instruments, like lasers and dermal rollers, which can cause skin irritation, rashes, and other issues.\nThe Eclipse Micropen features a safety cartridge that is sterile, and of surgical grade. This means it\u2019s safer and gentler on the skin than other instruments used for this process. It also has a high-speed motor so it can move quickly across the skin. This creates a more comfortable and easier microneedling experience for clients. The pen position is also customizable, since everyone\u2019s skin is different. This means that the pen can be varied to provide the best treatment and results possible.\nWhat is Microneedling, Anyway?\nMicroneedling is the process of puncturing the skin with tiny needles to create a small skin injury. Despite how it sounds, it\u2019s relatively painless and minimally invasive. By creating these tiny wounds, it triggers the skin to create new elastin and collagen, which produce the firmness and texture of the skin, making it look and feel better. This is an effective treatment for many common skin problems, like scars, large pores, and stretch marks. With any surgery, there are risks, so microneedling is a great way to get results without having a surgical procedure.\nFirst, the skin is thoroughly cleaned and dried. Microneedling works best on clean skin. Then the technician will place a gel to the area. This gel lubricates the skin and allows the Eclipse Micropen to easily glide across the skin. While it\u2019s gliding, it\u2019s also creating those micro-wounds that will heal up and leave your skin looking and feeling better. Usually you can see results in about 30 days, and it will only improve with more treatments until your practitioner deems the process to be finished. This usually takes four sessions or so.\nAre there any downsides or risks?\nThe only downside might be that your skin may turn red and be swollen during the needling and for a day or two after. It\u2019s almost as if you have a sunburn, as your skin might peel a little as well. This is normal, as the skin peeling is a sign of healing. If you go out in the sun, you should moisturize your skin and use a sunscreen of SPF 30 or greater, as it will be sensitive.\nSo there\u2019s everything you need to know about the Eclipse MIcropen and microneedling. Try them out if you\u2019re looking for a non-invasive way to get rid of a frustrating skin issue.",

        "raw_content": "Farm Income Program\nMr. Myron Thompson (Wild Rose, CPC): Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Minister of Agriculture bragged about the millions paid out to producers.\nA couple in my riding, Dan and Wanda Meyer from Didsbury, Alberta, both have to work off the farm in order to pay utilities and put food on the table for their three children. They were excited when they saw a brown envelope with a cheque for the direct payment portion of farm income payment. When they opened the envelope the cheque was in the whopping amount of $106.40, far short of the few thousand that they were expecting.\nGiven the large amount of cash in brown envelopes changing Liberal hands in Montreal restaurants, how can the minister sleep at night knowing that near destitute farmers are receiving this pittance?\nHon. Andy Mitchell (Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, I go back to the point that I made before to the hon. critic, and that is the importance of not trying to politicize this to score points on the floor of the House of Commons.\nThe reality is that we have had a number of programs, particularly in terms of BSE over $2 billion. At the year end we had another program valued at over $1 billion. Already 70% of that money has flowed. Hundreds of thousands of producers are benefiting from that.\nAs a government we will continue with the strong commitment to Canadian producers that we have demonstrated in the past. We will continue to do that in the future.\nMr. Myron Thompson (Wild Rose, CPC): Mr. Speaker, I wonder what the minister would have to say to the families of the four most recent suicides in Saskatchewan.\nWendy and Doug Newton are from my riding. They are a hardworking couple from Crossfield who have been forced to work off the farm as well to keep it alive. They were excited when their cheque arrived on April 26. However, it was in the amount of $304. They, too, were expecting thousands.\nCan the minister please explain how $304 will save the Newton farm?\nHon. Andy Mitchell (Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, we could trot out all the particular examples the hon. member wants, but again, what he is trying to do is to set the stage on something that is not a reality.\nThe fact is that through our CAIS program we have already provided $1.6 billion to Canadian producers. Through the farm income program we are providing close to $1 billion to Canadian producers.\nThe hon. member is correct, and all members in the House who understand agriculture know the serious concerns that our producers have. We are taking serious steps to assist them. We are not trying to score cheap political points.",

        "raw_content": "ADO Blames Financial Woes on a Dead Guy!\nAmerican Darts Organization Communications Officer, Steve \u201cI could singlehandedly change not only the ADO, but darts in this country\u201d Brown (who is either paid or not paid by the ADO \u2013 no one will say) has recently published the August 2016 board minutes and related materials. Jolly good job, old boy.\nIncluded are a report by Jeff Inman, the organization\u2019s new CFO (who, unlike his immediate predecessor, Lloyd Hoover \u2013 a nice but classically unorganized guy who accomplished next to nothing during his term \u2013 is an actual, real live, CPA) and a resignation letter from Chuck Hudson in which he offers up names such as Hoover and Glenda \u201cDoc\u201d Alvarado as replacements.\nYou may recall it was Alvarado who created a stir a few years back by accusing several prominent players of \u201ccheating\u201d at the Virginia Beach Classic. Hudson\u2019s venom (which he directs at yours truly and others) is a bit surprising \u2013 as he has been one of many who have provided (and continue to) inside information as some have attempted to get to the bottom of various ADO indiscretions and cover-ups.\nPossibly the most startling recent revelation is that former (or current or co-current with Brown) office manager, Katie Harris, is now officially being paid to be the ADO\u2019s bookkeeper. This is the same Harris who two past presidents and two current board members have identified as who they consider responsible for the financial mess the ADO continues to face \u2013 and who was responsible for filing, but did not, the Form 900 reports required by the IRS, leading to the revocation of the ADO\u2019s status.\nTo a person (I am paraphrasing), those who have supplied information have said, We know she\u2019s the problem\u2026 we know we have to get rid of her\u2026 but we can\u2019t get the votes.\nTo his credit, ADO president David Hascup finally got the votes. Probably Laurett Meddis and Buddy Bartoletta were not pleased. Hascup proudly announced the west coast office would be closed and Harris\u2019 tenure would end by the close of 2015. So much for the later.\nNow, according to Inman, Harris is an \u201cindependent contractor\u201d who has been \u201cworking diligently\u201d to bring the books up to date, help prepare financial statements, and (I guess) will on deck to help file the long-overdue tax forms so the organization\u2019s non-profit status might be reinstated.\nAlthough it\u2019s been nearly 14 years since any human being outside the ADO inner circle has seen a proper financial statement, Inman reports that these are being prepared for \u201call years from 2004 to present\u201d and that the \u201cearly few years are close to completion.\u201d\nSo (whew) Harris is on the case \u2013 leagues which have paid pay dues and players who have anted up entry fee surcharges and more can finally take comfort, maybe, knowing that inside of 15 years of when all this began they will know how their so-called \u201cgoverning organization\u201d has spent their money. Perhaps, perhaps not, we will also learn how much of the budget is footing the bill for Brown and Harris.\nOne must commend Inman for finally prodding along a possible resolution to the ADO\u2019s financial woes. But\u2026\n\u2026what is deeply disconcerting, certainly to anyone who knew Charlie Forrester (the ADO\u2019s CFO before his passing a dozen or so years ago), is that Inman has apparently convinced the ADO board (or maybe it took no convincing \u2013 more likely it was just a realization of the need to cast blame on someone other than the person(s) in the mirror) that when the IRS is approached to consider reinstatement of the organization\u2019s charitable status, the \u201creasonable cause\u201d which will be required to explain to the IRS why the tax returns were not filed for a decade-plus will be \u201cthe sudden passing of our previous CFO, Charlie Forrester\u2026\u201d.\nBlame the dead guy.\nCharlie Forrester was a friend of mine, a friend of many. He was an honest man. A gentleman. A class act.\nBut even if he did leave the books in disarray, the \u201creasonable cause\u201d as to why since his death, more than a decade ago, everything is still in disarray has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Forrester. It has everything to do with the incompetence, negligence, and gross financial mismanagement by those who followed him.\nAs the saying goes, \u201cIt\u2019s always the ones with the dirty hands pointing the fingers.\u201d\nThe ADO\u2019s hands have been making mud pies for years.\nAugust 6, 2014 Column #468 Where there\u2019s smoke there\u2019s fire!\nPowered by WordPress | Theme Designed by: mr-shopping.net shop | Thanks to figurine, buy shoes and RapidTrend.com",

        "raw_content": "6 Dating Tips To Remember On Dates\nDating women is extremely easy once you know what to do. But if you don't know where to start that's fine because here are some dating tips on what you should do on dates. Learn and how you can attract women while enjoying yourself at the same time.\nTip 1: Look Good\nYou may not be the most handsome guy in the world but that doesn't mean that you can't look good! Self grooming is extremely important and it doesn't take a lot of effort to clean up before a date and pull on a clean ironed shirt. Dating women while looking like a slob won't get your very far. Other dating tips to remember include bathing, smelling good, and trimming away nose hair.\nTip 2: Don't Lie\nOut of all the dating tips, this is probably one of the most important once of them all. I realize that more often than not it is easier to lie about certain things or even embellish on the truth to make your life sound more interesting. However the more you life the harder it is to keep track of the details and after your 4 th date with the same woman will you actually remember the lies you've told since your first date?\nTip 3: Have A Sense Of Humor\nWomen love to date men who have a good sense of humor. If you can make her laugh half your battle is already won. This is because by making her laugh she is happy and enjoying herself. Laughing is also good because it creates positive vibes and leaves her with good memories of her date with you. When she remembers how fun this date was she'll want to go out with you again.\nTip 4: Be Yourself\nMost dating tips will tell you that there are expectations that you have to live up to in order to attract and date women. This is not true! Men and even women always forget that pretending to be someone else will not work for long. This goes back to the 2 nd tip of not lying because sooner or later the truth will slip out. And besides, wouldn't you much rather have women date you for who you are rather than someone you are pretending to be?\nTip 5: Be A Mystery\nOne of the most important dating tips is to make sure that you are never always available. Women are curious and naturally attracted to what they don't know. So if you project yourself as a bit of a mystery they will naturally want to go out with you more. For example, if and when they call, it's advisable to not always be available at their beck and call. This is one of the most important rules of dating. Be nice but don't be too nice and you will have women always coming back for more.\nTip 6: Enjoy Dating\nThe final tip to succeed at dating women is to actually enjoy your dates. There is no point in dating or trying to find someone if all you do is stress out on your dates on how you can make it perfect or how you sound or look like. Dating is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable. If you are not enjoying yourself she will be able to tell and in turn she won't have a good date either. Don't expect too much out of a single date and who knows magic might just happen naturally.",

There is no doubt that the hero in this story has done the very best he/she could with what they had, and it comes to this. You have come to the end of this chapter and the person you\u2019ve come to admire and feel like you can relate to is at the lowest point imaginable, feels like he/she can\u2019t go on.\nHolding the book in your hands, you can feel two-thirds of the book in your left-hand and one-third of the book in your right hand. Do you close the book, throw it in the trash and walk away?\nNo. You can\u2019t wait to see what happens next! You turn the page. (Okay, maybe you check the table of contents, the page number count of the book, and then turn the page!)\nYou\u2019re thinking to yourself, \u201cDon\u2019t give up. You can do this!\u201d Just like your higher self is saying to you right now:\nSomething so much better is waiting for you\nIt may be just beyond your reach, but I can see it from my vantage point. You\u2019ve just got to hold on and keep going. You don\u2019t even have to feel good about it, but it is there, waiting for you\u2026\nIf you can only make it one more day.\nThat\u2019s all I ask. Just one day, and then maybe another, but only one day at a time. Just keep moving.\nAnd me? When I find myself there?\nYes, I too, find myself in my darkest hour, and have many times throughout the course of my life.\nAnd now, when I feel like giving up, I don\u2019t know what to say, like I just can\u2019t do this anymore\u2026\nI know that something better \u2013 so much more incredibly better \u2013 is waiting for me, just beyond my reach. I can\u2019t see it, but I know it\u2019s there.\nBecause that\u2019s the way it\u2019s always been. Every time I\u2019ve felt like cashing in my chips, and giving up because I was done, once and for all\u2026 For whatever reason delayed my checking-out, I made it one more day. And then another\u2026\nYou know what happened: something so much better did come my way.\nSo, now when I find myself sinking into that place of darkness, I start looking around to see what I might be missing and using my desolate feeling as an indicator to look for ways to change my direction. In these moments I look for opportunities to do something I\u2019ve never done before, be places that I wouldn\u2019t have probably been before, because I know something amazing is waiting for me.\nJust like the most amazing part of your life is waiting for you.\nYou are the hero in your story\u2026\nAuthor davidmastersadminPosted on July 1, 2016 Categories BlogTags giving up on life, i don t know what to say, i'm done, when you feel like giving up\nPrevious Previous post: June Image Directory\nNext Next post: Walk Away Let It Go",

It is an ideal vehicle for discussion and experimentation that can be utilised in several ways:\nAs a patchwork quilt for others \u2013 it is possible to make new pieces in the manner of a patchwork quilt \u2013 and being a virtual one it can have many different versions;\nAs a basis for historical or cultural projects;\nAs a backdrop for drama, dance and music events related to the imagery and ideas.\nIf you are part of a group which might be interested in making use of the project, I can offer assistance and help, for a fee. This would usually take the form of an initial lecture and introduction concerning the style of images.\nIt would be followed up by a talk on the adaptation of designs to create the effect of glass as a medium; the provision of templates; and help in making the initial images. This might involve teaching simple collage techniques and adapting the vision to other mediums such as textiles.\nPlease contact me as to how you might like to utilise the project.",

        "raw_content": "Ten years ago, evictions complete, steel gates clanged shut around the Olympic Park. Five years later they reopened, the world arrived and two fortnights of sport took place. Five years after the Games a massive amount of repurposing has taken place, and much of the Olympic Park is now scarcely recognisable from what came before. But it's still not the case that everything's finished, ten years on, nor indeed that all the old ways into the park have been opened up. On the tenth anniversary of the initial lock-up, I'm been down to see whereabouts you still can't get in.\nI started at the Bow Flyover, and worked my way east.\nThe River Lea towpath is still passable, but remains diverted (via a pontoon) while a new electricity substation is built alongside to power Crossrail. The pontoon was supposed to be removed in February, according to the website puddingmilllanesubstation.com, but towpath restoration is currently running six months behind schedule and workmen are still faffing around with walls and surfaces.\nBarbers Road reopened in March, having been closed off since 2009, leading to a windswept new piazza outside Pudding Mill Lane DLR station. But not everything's open yet.\nThis is a new ramp from Marshgate Lane up towards the Greenway, parallel to the DLR viaduct, which workmen have been swarming over for months. It replaces a creepier, less accessible footpath which used to follow approximately the same route until 2007. Eventually this new footpath/cycleway link will connect the station to the Greenway and a new residential wedge beyond... but for now it's still very closed.\nThe Greenway remains straightforward to reach by ducking under the railway and heading up to the View Tube.\nThe View Tube's cafe is now under new management, paired up with The Common on Old Bethnal Green Rd, and offers a different slant on drinks and snacks to the previous tenants. Bike hire is also available, daily (except Tuesdays) throughout the summer. But footfall around this sparsely developed location remains low, so I'm not sure how the business survives, especially now that 'coming up onto the Greenway to see the Stadium' is nothing special.\nHere's the latest view of the Stadium from the Greenway.\nAs you can see, a large building is going up inbetween... a new secondary school on the banks of the City Mill River. Students shouldn't expect any playground space, except perhaps on the roof, so tight is the footprint of the site, although they will have a community athletics track nextdoor. That diversion sign stuck to the railings is needed because a tented village has sprung up on the lawn south of the Orbit during a special summer of athletics, and the resulting pedestrian detour is both dull and inconvenient. It also looks like all the pink arrows will fall off soon. Stay away.\nI'll now return to Stratford High Street and check the next former entrance into the park.\nThe next former entrance into the park, up Blaker Road, is blocked. What's more the bars across the tunnel under the Greenway mean it looks like remaining blocked permanently, making this once pleasant riverside path a dead end... and a good place to sleep rough on a dumped mattress. What I best remember from standing here before Olympic construction began were the dragonflies dancing on the water. There are no dragonflies now, dancing or otherwise.\nAnother connection to the Greenway once existed from Blaker Road, along the northern bank of the Waterworks River.\nThat's still blocked too. I got excited because the barriers at the City Mill Lock end have finally been removed and I was able to walk along a long-sealed path. I reached the bench overlooking the canal, and further, but at the far end, just before the steps, no luck, the barriers remain. What is it about the Greenway which makes all these connections as yet impassible?\nAt the main entrance on Stratford High Street, here's the answer. 'Early investigations'.\nThe Greenway's northern access has been blocked since 2009, initially for Olympic reasons. When the Games were over, Crossrail operations took precedence, encompassing a major worksite where fresh railway tracks will enter tunnels. Crossrail were supposed to be finished by July 2016, but then a third interested party turned up, namely Thames Water, who need to carry out 'strengthening works to the bridge over Waterworks River'. Initially the plan was for this to be completed by July 2018, but the paperwork attached to the fence suggests the work's only just started, that the company they've brought in are \"asbestos removal specialists\", and that the work won't be complete until 1st January 2019. I wouldn't count on it.\nThe next potential entrance to the park is from Bridgewater Road, past the allotments.\nThis arty tunnel has been blocked off for years, then was silently opened up last winter, then was mysteriously closed off again. I managed to walk round one barrier and under the railway bridge, which has thankfully been cleaned of pigeon droppings since I was last here. But the barrier on the far side was still in place, so I had to retrace my steps and return to Warton Road to enter the park instead.\nI've never seen this obstruction on Warton Road before.\nThese lumpen security barriers aren't permanent, hopefully, but have been installed as a precaution during \"a spectacular Summer of World Athletics\". The Yoghurt-Sponsored Anniversary Games took place yesterday, the World Para Athletics Championships begin on Friday and the IAAF World Championships kick off on 4th August. Congratulations to the stadium-bookers on an impressive haul of top class action, for which tickets are still available, but the associated backstage operations and security are an echo of the less attractive side of 2012.\nThe Stadium is no longer in West Ham mode.\nThe triangles on the exterior wrap remain claret and blue, but the club's name has been removed from the roof and the huge video screen is now streaming pictures of athletes rather than footballers. It's good to see the Stadium being used for the purpose it was originally designed for, even if the rarity of athletics events is a reminder of why a completely different kind of sporting presence needed to be wheeled in as anchor tenant.\nAnd finally, here's something not yet open for those arriving by water.\nCarpenters Road Lock last operated in the 1960s, but has been expensively restored and its unique double radial lock gates are finally due to open again at the end of the summer. An East London Waterways Festival is pencilled in for Bank Holiday Monday 28th August, with a variety of events on land and water including a boat flotilla, live music and dragon boat racing. The full Bow Back Rivers network will then be accessible for the first time in decades, ideal for cruising should you have a narrowboat at your disposal.\nTen years may have proved insufficient, but wait long enough and the entire Olympic Park does open up.",

Finally, a wide array of recreational and athletic facilities, worthy of a world class resort, will make Freedom Ship a veritable 'Community on the Sea.' \"\nThe ship will continuously circle the globe, covering most of the world's coastal areas every two years, standing offshore major cities about 70% of the time, spending the other 30% in transit. There is an airstrip on the top deck, capable of handling 30-40 passenger aircraft. Its fleet of commuter aircraft and hydrofoils will ferry passengers to and from shore.\nHere's an artist's rendering of the ship:\nThere will 18,000 resident-owned living units being offered at pre-construction prices. They range from a 300 square foot Economy Unit with no kitchen for $153,000 to a 750 square foot interior unit for $305,625 all the way up to a 5,100 square foot Water View Suite for the low, low price of just $6,852,450. There is also a time-share program where you can get a 900 square foot unit for two weeks every year for $40,000, plus condo fees, naturally.\nThe attraction, presumably, is more for retired people, or for those who have businesses that can be run from a distance. I actually think it's a pretty neat concept: you can leave the ship at one port, travel around on land in an area, or fly to another country for a while, and then catch up with the ship at a future port.\n[Of course, it would help to have a LOT of money, neh?]\nTime frame on when it will be ready . . . well, I haven't been able to pinpoint that yet. As luck would have it though, there is a show on the Discovery Channel tonight at 9 p.m. that investigates \"Engineering The Impossible.\" They will be covering the Freedom Ship, in addition to other difficult engineering challenges. I'll try to watch it and report back tomorrow.\nFor some time I have been surfing through the myriad weblogs on the net, finding ones that I like and come back to. I shan't be too precise about the ratio of blogs that I like versus those that I find purile and/or no fun. Just know it's somewhere around a gazbillion to one. Roughly.\nAnyway, I have added a couple to my Links section. The first one, Tim Blair, is an Australian columnist with some very right-wing views [would fit right in at a Myers family reunion]. His blog tends toward the political, but not always.\nAlso included in the new and improved Links list is Wil Wheaton Dot Net. In case that name sounds vaguely familiar, Wil is an actor, best known for his lead role in Rob's Reiner's 1986 film, \"Stand By Me.\" Or, if you're a Trekkie like me you'd also know him from \"Star Trek:The Next Generation\". Wil designed and built his website himself [another self-taught HTML coder] and updates it just about every day. He's very witty even if his politics are a bit to the left.\n[That's OK, after I've read Tim Blair, a little moderate liberalism is actually refreshing.]\n\"Ships at a distance have\nevery man's wish on board.\"\n-- Zora Neale Hurston (1903 - 1960)",

So he led his life confined between the walls of the gigantic palace where his parents lived and where everything seemed perfect and harmonious. He married, had a son and knew only the pleasures and delights of life. One night, however, when he turned 29, he asked one of the guards to take him into town. The guard objected, for the king could become furious, but Siddhartha was so insistent that the man eventually gave in, and they left the palace together.\nThe first thing they saw was an old beggar with a sad expression on his face, asking for alms. Further ahead they came across a group of lepers, and right after them a funeral procession passed by. \"I have never seen this before!\" he must have said to the guard, who may have answered: \"Well, that's old age, and that's disease, and death.\" On their way back to the palace, they came upon a holy man, his hair shorn and wearing only a yellow cloak, who said: \"my life was a torment, so I have given everything up so that I don't have to incarnate as myself and suffer old age and sickness and death all over again.\"",

        "raw_content": "The comic strip character Dick Tracy, a police detective, first appeared in 1931. His distinctive features included a yellow hat, a trench coat, and, of course, most noteworthy was his wrist watch. It functioned as a video/telephone communicator.\nIn recent years, technology has made the Dick Tracy watch feasible. Based on the following description of an I-Phone write a one page account of how the Dick Tracy watch compares to the I-Phone, likenesses and differences.\nThe Apple iPhone provides its user with the ultimate mobile device which include high quality features and stunning design concept. The iPhone is a mobile phone, a highly useable widescreen iPod with touch screen controls and a Internet communications device, all rolled into one portable device. The casing is small and lightweight which measures 115mm x 61mm x 11.6mm and weighs 135 grams. The casing comes in a selection of popular colors which include a sleek black gloss look finish and a sophisticated glossy white color. The phone comes with a huge multi-touch color screen which acts as a brilliant display as well as the users input method which allows the user to control all the phone\u2019s functions using the multi touch screen. The screen measures 3.5 Inches and provides a screen resolution of 320 x 480 pixels on a brilliantly colored screen. The iPhone comes with a new Mac OS X based user interface which is based on the large multi touch color display. The phone comes with a fitted battery which provides the user approximately 5 hours of talk time. The user will enjoy and quick and easy input method when typing messages as the iPhone will display a touch QWERTY keyboard on the 3.5 Inch screen which is a predictive keyboard and automatically corrects typing errors. The touch keyboard provides a user friendly input method and the Apple iPhone displays the typing above the keyboard which provides a real feel typing experience for the user. The beautiful Apple iPhone comes with a built in camera and video feature which allows the user to capture still photographic images and moving video footage easily with their portable device.\nAbove is a primitive adaptation of the Dick Tracy watch providing only the audio feature over limited distance.",

        "raw_content": "Personalized E-Learning Process Using Effective Assessment and Feedback\nThe amount and quality of feedback provided to the learner has an impact on the learning process.docx (10.12Kb)\nThe amount and quality of feedback provided to the learner has an impact on the learning process. Personalized feedback is particularly important to the effective delivery of e-learning courses. E-learning delivery methods such as web-based instruction are required to overcome the barriers to traditional-type classroom feedback. Thereby, the feedback for a learner should consist not only of adaptive information about his errors and performance, but also of adaptive hints for the improvement of his solution. Furthermore, the tutoring component is required to individually motivate the learners. In this paper, an adaptive assessment and feedback process model for personalized e-learning is proposed and developed for the purpose of maximizing the effects of learning.

        "title": "Structured Literacy: Setting the Stage for Student Literacy Success | Dyslexia Help at the University of Michigan",
        "raw_content": "Home / Parents / Learn about Dyslexia / Structured Literacy: Setting the Stage for Student Literacy Success\nSubmitted by karbogas on Thu, 08/18/2016 - 11:03\nNearly a century has passed since Samuel Orton conducted his pioneering work with children with language disorders who were bright, but could not read. We have known for years how to teach dyslexic children to read, spell, and write; yet countless students still struggle in school to learn these basic skills. These students require an explicit and systematic instructional approach, now aptly called Structured Literacy (SL) by the International Dyslexia Association (IDA). According to IDA Board President Hal Malchow (July, 2014), the goal is to have a common term that represents all of the effective programs, referred to by such names as the Orton-Gillingham approach, multi-sensory learning, and explicit phonics, that conform to the IDA\u2019s Knowledge and Practice Standards for reading instruction.\nEffective reading instruction focuses on teaching the specific areas of language that undergird learning to read, spell, and write\u2014phonology, morphology, semantics, syntax, and discourse, as well as sound-symbol association (i.e., phonics). The explicit and systematic instruction of SL ensures students build their skills in each component area of literacy. Phonology refers to the sound system of language and difficulties with phonological awareness, phonological memory, and/or rapid automatic naming are key indicators of dyslexia. SL teaches students to appreciate phonological (sound) units, such as syllables and phonemes, the smallest sound units, when they hear them orally in words. In concert with strengthening phonological and phonemic awareness skills, the SL approach espouses teaching students to map the sounds of our language onto letters and letter combinations. For example, students learn that the word \u201csleigh\u201d has three sounds\u2014 /s/, /l/, and /long a/; and then, they learn that we need to represent that /long a/ sound when spelling using four letters\u2014 \u201ceigh.\u201d\nSL instruction goes beyond teaching students the basic phonograms (e.g., -at, -am, -ed, -in) and, for example, includes teaching the six syllable types of English orthography, which makes reading and spelling longer words more manageable. Understanding morphology is another key component to the teaching of reading and spelling. Initially, students are taught inflectional morphemes, such as the verb tense endings -ing and -ed. And then, because around the 4th grade 60% of unknown words are morphologically complex, it becomes critical to teach derivational roots, prefixes, and suffixes, such as those of Latin and Greek origin. SL also focuses on syntax (e.g., word order, complex sentence structure), semantics (e.g., word meaning), and discourse (e.g., narrative versus expository text) to help students better understand the text they read and express themselves in writing.\nSL instruction systematically guides students through these components and more. The goal is to integrate newly learned skills into a smooth and automatic reading experience in order to facilitate comprehension\u2014in other words\u2014learning. The beauty of this explicit, systematic, and cumulative approach is that instruction can, and should be, individualized to each student\u2019s needs in order to achieve success. For example, as a clinician, when I begin working with a client who is in the 5th grade and who does not have basic decoding skills, I begin with the basics\u2014teaching phonemic awareness and letter-sound combinations. But, at the same time, I may also teach the six syllable types and introduce some Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes. I can\u2019t belabor teaching the phonograms (e.g., cat, fat, mat; man, fan, ran), which are critically important, because the 5th grade curriculum is now full of multisyllabic words that he needs to be able to read (e.g., amendments, condensation, evaporation, unconstitutional). The SL approach ensures that I begin with and solidify the basics, but that I also know to incorporate advanced word study into my instructional plan as quickly as possible for these older students.\nBecause SL systematically incorporates all aspects of spoken language into the teaching of reading, spelling and writing, from the awareness of individual sounds to the meaning of entire sentences, the approach helps the student, whether dyslexic or just learning to read, to develop a full and refined understanding of the structures of language that set the stage for successful and solidified reading, spelling, and writing habits. Understanding and incorporating the tenets and practices of Structured Literacy is a win for teachers, clinicians, and tutors, but most importantly, it is life-changing for the students whose literacy skills we want to improve.\nRead more about Structured Literacy here.\nDr. Pierson wishes to thank Fran Sobolak for an initial draft and her colleague Dr. Lauren Katz for her review of this piece.",

I\u2019m 37, she\u2019s 30, both never married and no kids.\nTwo years ago, I ended it for two-and-a half months because I didn\u2019t like how the relationship was going.\nMy girlfriend was incredibly saddened. She sent me numerous messages, cards, gifts, expressing how she wanted me back and I was the only one for her.\nUnbeknownst to me, she was on an online dating site seeking other men during the entire break up.\nDespite my anger, we did reconcile and I told her I\u2019d found out what she was doing.\nShe apologized, saying she really wanted me; she was on the sites in case we didn\u2019t get back together.\nOur relationship has since progressed well. We\u2019ve been making plans to move in together in September and start to plan a family.\nDuring the last couple of months, she\u2019s been acting somewhat unusual; when I mentioned this, she\u2019d reassure me that she loves me, wants to get married, and start a family.\nRecently, I discovered she\u2019s on three different dating sites. She denied it, and then admitted to it, saying she was bored and it didn\u2019t mean anything.\nShe also said she was worried if it didn\u2019t work out with us she could have another option.\nShe said she never cheated or went on any dates, and doesn\u2019t want this relationship to end.\nI\u2019ve always had a trust issue in my gut about her. Should I move on?\nShe likes to have a backup plan. The first time, it was understandable since you were apart.\nThis second time, it\u2019s as if she has her purse ready at the door to leave.\nShe\u2019s either very insecure about a full commitment to a future together, or not really ready for moving together and starting a family.\nYour gut instinct is fairly accurate.\nDelay the move. If you still feel love for her, get counselling together.\nIn front of the professional, ask her why she\u2019d be \u201cbored\u201d and looking for other choices just weeks before moving together.\nTrust is essential at this point. If the counselling experience doesn\u2019t help you feel it, move on.\nFEEDBACK Regarding \"Lost,\" the spouse of a controlling, abusive husband (July 27):\nReader \u2013 \u201cAfter having once successfully escaped him through a drastic life change, she got emotionally manipulated to return to him within 18 months.\n\u201cThis is part of the ongoing cycle of violence which can be reactivated at any time of an abuser's choosing.\n\u201cShe\u2019s still vulnerable and dependent on him again for social interaction and validation.\n\u201cThe typical abuser tricks of using threats of isolation and cutting off the victim's support network are transparent here.\n\u201cThe outcomes in these cases are predictable.\n\u201cStudies show that it takes several tries for a victim to leave their abuser for good, and that the most dangerous time is when the victim has left.\n\u201cSome domestic violence occurs months or years later, because controlling abusers see their victims as belonging to them.\n\u201cCan \"Lost\" see the danger she\u2019s in by showing her abuser it's okay to control and hurt her?\n\u201cLoneliness is nothing compared to having one's life at risk, one's autonomy stolen, one's value as a person demeaned, and self-esteem in tatters.\n\u201cAlso, showing lack of self-respect by taking a scam-artist back, is often used to show added contempt to a victim by justifying other partners.\n\"Lost\" needs to file for divorce, and stop all contact (if the child isn't his).\u201d\nMy father passed away four months ago. I was devastated. My mother died three years ago. I feel so lonely without my parents.\nMy spouse hasn\u2019t been supportive of me.

        "raw_content": "South Korea To Crack Down On Baby Flesh Pills From China\nThousands of drug capsules filled with powdered flesh from dead babies are being smuggled into South Korea from China every year, said a report by the BBC on Monday, as customs officials attempt to curb the illegal trade by increasing inspections on all drug shipments.\nSince August 2011, Korea Customs Service has confiscated almost 17,500 of the capsules being smuggled from China, with the \u201cdrug\u201d said to be a panacea for all sorts of diseases, as well as a renowned stamina booster.\nYet, Korean health authorities have warned that the capsules may be full of bacteria and could be a health risk for anyone who consumes them.\n\"It was confirmed those capsules contain materials harmful to the human body, such as super bacteria. We need to take tougher measures to protect public health,\" a customs official was quoted as saying by the Korea Times.\nAccording to the Telegraph, the capsules are made in China\u2019s Northeast cities \u2013 Yanji, Jilin, Qingdao and Tianjin \u2013 with the remains of dead infants and foetuses. The bodies are chopped into small pieces, before they are dried them on stoves and turned it into powder.\nChina\u2019s Ministry of Health is believed to have already launched an investigation into the drugs\u2019 origins last August. A health ministry spokesman, Deng Haihua, said at the time that the ministry would give the matter \"a high degree of attention\" and \"resolutely crack down\" on the practice.\nRelated: US Lawmaker Wants To Ban Human Foetuses In Food\nRelated: China To Impose Lifetime Bans For Food Safety Violators\nRelated: China Scrambles To Crack Down On \u201cFake Eggs\u201d\nStill, the illegal drug trade appears to be thriving with ethnic Chinese living in Korea believed to be the main customers. The buyers themselves also believed to be the ones smuggling in the drugs by hiding the capsules in their luggage or through international mail.\nSouth Korea\u2019s customs agency only became aware of the situation after receiving a tip a year ago. Thus far, no one has been punished for smuggling in the drugs as the amounts were deemed small and weren't intended for sale, confirmed a customs official, who requested anonymity, citing department rules.",

        "raw_content": "22 Signs That Voter Fraud Is Wildly Out Of Control And The Election Was A Sham\nAfter what we have seen this November, how is any American ever supposed to trust the integrity of our elections ever again? There were over 70,000 reports of voting problems on election day, and there are numerous eyewitnesses that claim that they saw voting machines change votes for one candidate to another candidate right in front of their eyes. In several of the swing states there were counties where the number of registered voters exceeded the total voting age population by a very wide margin. How in the world does that happen? Some of the vote totals that were reported in some of the most important swing states were completely and totally absurd, and yet we are just supposed to accept them on blind faith without ever being able to ask any questions. Of course the Romney campaign has already totally given up, so it isn\u2019t as if there is any chance that the results of the presidential election could be overturned anyhow. But if massive election fraud did take place and nobody is held accountable, what kind of message will that send for the future? Will we ever be able to have faith in the integrity of our elections ever again?

Right now we are probably witnessing the most divisive campaign in modern U.S. history, and both sides truly hate one another. Even CNN is running articles about how polarized politics in America has become and how vicious both sides can be. There is a lot of anger and frustration out there that has been bottled up for a long time, and this election could end up being a trigger event that releases a lot of it. Both sides are entirely convinced that they can win this tightly contested election, and one side is going to feel bitterly disappointed when it does not happen. Both sides are talking as if it is going to be \u201cthe end of America\u201d or \u201cthe end of the world\u201d if they lose this election. This is particularly true when it comes to Obama supporters. On social networking sites such as Twitter, many of them have actually been proclaiming that Mitt Romney wants to \u201cexterminate black people\u201d and many of them have been openly threatening to harm him if he does win the election. This is a very dangerous sign, and these threats should be taken very seriously. Of course a lot of Romney supporters are also likely to go absolutely insane if Obama ends up winning. In fact, one Romney supporter apparently put a bullet through the window of an Obama campaign office in Denver the other day. But when it comes to threatening to do crazy things if the election does not go their way, Obama supporters definitely take the cake.

We are at a point in our history where we desperately need a change of direction in the White House, and we are guaranteed that we are not going to get it. The Democrats are running the worst president in American history, and the Republicans are running a guy who is almost a carbon copy of him. The fact that about half the country is still supporting Barack Obama shows how incredibly stupid and corrupt the American people have become. No American should have ever cast a single vote for Barack Obama for any political office under any circumstances. He should never have even been the assistant superintendent in charge of janitorial supplies, much less the president of the United States. The truth is that Barack Obama has done such a horrible job that he should immediately resign along with his entire cabinet. But instead of giving us a clear choice, the Republicans nominated the Republican that was running that was most similar to Barack Obama. In fact, I don\u2019t think we have ever had two candidates for president that are so similar. Yes, there are a few minor differences between them, but the truth is that we are heading into Obama\u2019s second term no matter which one of them gets elected. The mainstream media makes it sound like Obama and Romney are bitter ideological rivals but that is a giant lie. Yeah, they are slinging lots of mud at each other, but they both play for the same team and the losers are going to be the American people.

Well, it may not be as far-fetched as you may think. Clear Channel owns more radio stations (850) than anyone else in the United States. They also own Premiere Radio Networks, the company that syndicates the radio shows of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck, among others. Needless to say, Clear Channel basically owns conservative talk radio in the United States. So who owns Clear Channel? Well, it turns out that Bain Capital is one of the primary owners of Clear Channel. Yes, you read that correctly. The company that Mitt Romney ran for so long is one of the \u201cbig bosses\u201d over virtually all conservative talk radio in America. Of course Mitt Romney is not running Bain Capital anymore. He is a \u201cretired partner\u201d, but he still has a huge financial stake in Bain Capital. We\u2019re talking about millions upon millions of dollars. If you doubt this, just check out page 34 of this public financial disclosure report. So if you have been wondering why so many conservative talk show hosts are being so incredibly kind to Mitt Romney, this just might be the answer.

Less than a month ago, Gingrich had a massive lead in Iowa. At one point he was averaging 31 percent support in Iowa polls. But after an unprecedented onslaught of negative advertising his numbers began to drop like a rock. Ultimately, he finished in fourth place in Iowa with only 13 percent of the vote. Pro-Romney \u201cSuper PACs\u201d spent over $3 million on negative ads that just ripped Gingrich to shreds. Of course considering his track record, that is not hard to do. But Newt Gingrich is not someone that is just going to \u201cforgive and forget\u201d. Gingrich honestly believed that he was going to win Iowa. In fact, he was so confident at one point that he told ABC News that he would \u201cbe the nominee\u201c. Now that his dreams have been shattered by pro-Romney forces, Gingrich has apparently decided that he is going to make it his personal mission to destroy Mitt Romney. The next few weeks of the Republican race should be very entertaining as Gingrich pursues this vendetta.

It really can\u2019t be overemphasized what this can mean for helping people to manage their careers in a modern economy.\u201d\nLiesl Folks, dean\nAri Cohen\u2019s role as director of business and trade development for the Israel Economic Mission in Chicago is a natural fit for his background. With a bachelor\u2019s degree in international relations and master\u2019s degree in microbiology, he introduces expansion-seeking Israeli life sciences startups to American companies and helps them navigate the business landscape.\nThe 30-year-old was less than thrilled when his matchmaking duties were broadened to assist manufacturing-related suppliers.\n\u201cI was a little out of my comfort zone,\u201d he admitted.\nCohen knew that having a grasp on the advanced manufacturing sector, and where it is heading, was paramount to sparking any meaningful conversations with Israeli clients and their potential American partners. He found the antidote to his unease in a \u201c101\u201d level series of massive open online courses, aka MOOCs, that explore manufacturing\u2019s shift to a fourth industrial revolution \u2014 often called \u201cIndustry 4.0\u201d \u2014 which uses data to make factories more efficient and competitive.\nCohen\u2019s learning vehicle is the Digital Manufacturing and Design Technology specialization, a 10-course bundle created by the University at Buffalo (UB). It is backed by funding from the Chicago-based Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute (DMDII), part of the Manufacturing USA network of public-private institutes developing manufacturing technologies and workforce solutions.\nThe specialization developed through the UB School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) is one of the largest available on the Coursera platform. The online educational company serves 25 million registered users with courses from 50 of the world\u2019s top universities and educational institutions.\nIn the words of Lisa Stephens, liaison to Coursera for the State University of New York (SUNY), the specialization is further proof that UB and SUNY \u201ccan be players in a new, innovative style of educational delivery.\u201d\nAs of mid-September, there were just over 8,000 total enrollments across the specialization, representing learners from 80 countries. The first three courses debuted in January, with subsequent courses released one per month. The final course went live in August.\n\u201cBroadening education by making it available to people all over the world is a powerful concept,\u201d said Liesl Folks, UB SEAS dean. \u201cIt really can\u2019t be overemphasized what this can mean for helping people to manage their careers in a modern economy.\u201d\nCreating MOOCs\nUB entered the land of MOOCs in 2013 when Coursera and SUNY agreed to a system-wide contract enabling all 64 campuses access to the delivery platform. Several SUNY campuses have since contributed to the platform. Career Services was the first UB unit to make a splash with \u201cHow to Write a Resume\u201d in March 2016.\nUB seized the opportunity to widen its Coursera presence when DMDII released a project call to support its workforce development strategy of training and educating the current and future workforce in digital manufacturing and design applications. UB is a Tier 1 academic member of DMDII, a public-private partnership aimed at transforming American manufacturing through the digitization of the supply chain.\n\u201cRecognizing it\u2019s a broad technology space, the potential impact [of digital manufacturing and design] can\u2019t be summed up in a single hour or a single article,\u201d said Michael Fornasiero, program manager of workforce development at DMDII. \u201cIt really takes effort to dive into the content and introduce the topics. We see this specialization as a way of getting someone up to speed very, very quickly, and establishing their understanding of the breadth of technologies and their interactions in this space.\u201d\nThe university\u2019s submission was masterminded by UB\u2019s Center for Industrial Effectiveness (TCIE), which is the business outreach arm of SEAS, with support from UB\u2019s SMART (Sustainable Manufacturing and Advanced Robotic Technologies) Community of Excellence.\nDMDII and its parent organization UI LABS chose the proposal, leading to a U.S. Department of Defense grant of $380,000.\nCourse creation spanned one year under the direction of TCIE\u2019s project management team. Expertise from engineering faculty, as well as partners Accu-Solve and Siemens PLM, was leveraged. Feedback of local and national industry partners was solicited. Extensive production and editing were provided by UB\u2019s Center for Educational Innovation and Full Circle Studios.\nThe result? Forty hours of video instruction, complemented by reading materials, assessments and peer interaction opportunities. Topics range from the digital thread and the internet of things to big data and cybersecurity.\nCourses are delivered by five UB faculty: Kenneth English, PhD, SMART deputy director; Rahul Rai, PhD, associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering (MAE); Sara Behdad, PhD, assistant professor of MAE, and industrial and systems engineering (ISE); Chi Zhou, PhD, assistant professor of ISE; and Shambhu Upadhyaya, professor of computer science and engineering.\n\u201cThe approach that UB took was very efficient for both curriculum development and feedback,\u201d Fornasiero said. \u201cIt was not completely dictated by an academic institution; they have done the work to make sure the content was resonating well\u201d with industry.\nJames van Oss, aerospace and defense product lifecycle management strategist and architect for Moog\u2019s Space & Defense Group and its Aircraft Group, was among the industry representatives tapped for their feedback. He called the development process a \u201ccutting-edge experience.\u201d The group included Lockheed Martin, the Association for Manufacturing Technology, SAE International, Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME), Buffalo Manufacturing Works, and the Commonwealth Center for Advanced Manufacturing (CCAM).\n\u201cIt\u2019s an interesting area. It\u2019s the thing that companies will be focusing on as the near future unfolds,\u201d he said. \u201cMore and more companies are thinking about how to create a digital thread\u2026 many are in transition from a drawing-based paradigm to this more modern-based paradigm.\u201d\nThe change to Industry 4.0 is already here, as mentioned during the specialization\u2019s introductory course.\n\u201cWe deal with it every day as we listen to music and take pictures with our ever-present phones, and share information via social media,\u201d English said. \u201cLarge organizations have already made the shift, and in the end smaller organizations are going to need to shift as well, whether required to as a condition of a contract or by realizing the competitive advantage they can gain.\u201d\nTechnologies of the 21st century demand greater accessibility to flexible education, as workers are expected to continuously adapt and acquire new skills. Thought leaders in higher education realize that students \u2013 especially those of the post-traditional sector \u2013 want autonomy in learning. After all, adult learners are busy people.\nCoursera is available 24/7 to anyone with an internet connection. Learners can freely view videos and reading materials of any course, including those of the specialization. There is a charge to access an entire course, which includes all assignments. Successfully completing the whole series earns a Digital Manufacturing and Design Technology certificate.\nFolks, UB SEAS dean, views the courses as a springboard for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to keep pace with opportunities. Before her engineering dean role, she worked in large corporations where scientists armed with knowledge and data were just a phone call away. Now as a university leader, her relation-building initiatives with SMEs have fully exposed her to the struggles of staying current with a much smaller budget.\n\u201cI hope that courses like these, and the DMDII itself, will bring to SMEs the kind of intellectual resources that large corporations have had in their research divisions traditionally \u2013 the forward thinking, forward planning, and strategic analysis,\u201d Folks said.\nVan Oss believes the courses are appropriate for entry-level engineers discovering career routes, like Mohammad Shahbaaz of Visakhapatnam, South India.\nThe 23-year-old has a bachelor\u2019s degree in mechanical engineering. He is voluntarily working as a design engineer for a manufacturing company \u2013 a common practice in his country \u2013 while searching for his first full-time job after college. He signed up for the specialization because it aligns with his plan to pursue a master\u2019s degree.\nShahbaaz hopes that the knowledge he gains will support his cause for landing a permanent, paid position. The company for which he is donating his services has invested in new infrastructure and machinery, and will require a team to implement digital technologies.\nAnd then there are learners such as Cohen, who were never captivated by or involved in manufacturing, but recognize a professional need to invest in the subject.\n\u201cIt\u2019s given me a lot of things to think about in terms of how the life sciences industry is going to change when Industry 4.0 mechanisms start getting adopted outside of heavy industry,\u201d Cohen said. \u201cAnd I\u2019m looking forward to having the skills and know-how to help the industry navigate that changing landscape.\u201d\nHe characterizes the courses as being accessible. \u201cYou don\u2019t necessarily need to be very well-versed in manufacturing lingo to understand these courses. And you don\u2019t need to have copious amounts of time to devote.\u201d\nThe specialization is opening UB SEAS to new audiences, and allowing it to move beyond the traditional university model of solely degree programs to one that encompasses certificates.\n\u201cAs the economy shifts more rapidly, people need access to training on an ongoing basis, to allow them to stay current and competitive,\u201d Folks said.\nSMART Director Kemper Lewis, PhD, foresaw the transformational potential of the courses not only for UB, but the entire field.\n\u201cEverything I\u2019ve heard \u2013 wherever I go \u2013 only confirms that,\u201d said Lewis, the principal investigator of the project as well as professor and chair of the MAE department.\nThrough speaking engagements across the country, he receives positive feedback from both academic and industry sectors. The courses are catching the attention of different groups, catalyzing conversations and developing relationships:\nLewis recently addressed the SUNY Research Council, which influences strategic and operational planning at SUNY and the SUNY Research Foundation. Council members acknowledged UB\u2019s leadership in digital manufacturing and design, and indicated that state investment is integral to expanding impact.\nA binational nonprofit organization and technical college in Quer\u00e9taro, Mexico contacted TCIE to guide development of similar Industry 4.0 courses targeted for manufacturing company employees and university students. Moreover, news of the relationship traveled 350 miles across the country, reaching a coalition of companies and a technical university in Durango, Mexico. The group has approached TCIE for assistance to establish a training center for manufacturing courses.\nThe principal of MOT Charter High School in Delaware is engaging with UB SEAS, exploring the development of a for-credit course.\n\u201cWhen you think of the thought leaders in digital manufacturing, hopefully UB is the top tier of institutions that come to mind,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cSome of that national recognition is definitely happening.\u201d\nTo learn more about the specialization and register, visit the Digital Manufacturing and Design Technology specialization page.",

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 105 (34). pp. 12254-12258. ISSN 00278424\nStaphylococcus aureus can adhere to and invade endothelial cells by binding to the human protein fibronectin (Fn). FnBPA and FnBPB, cell wall-attached proteins from S. aureus, have multiple, intrinsically disordered, high-affinity binding repeats (FnBRs) for Fn. Here, 30 years after the first report of S. aureus/Fn interactions, we present four crystal structures that together comprise the structures of two complete FnBRs, each in complex with four of the N-terminal modules of Fn. Each \u224840-residue FnBR forms antiparallel strands along the triple-stranded \u03b2-sheets of four sequential F1 modules (2\u20135F1) with each FnBR/2\u20135F1 interface burying a total surface area of \u22484,300 \u00c52. The structures reveal the roles of residues conserved between S. aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes FnBRs and show that there are few linker residues between FnBRs. The ability to form large intermolecular interfaces with relatively few residues has been proposed to be a feature of disordered proteins, and S. aureus/Fn interactions provide an unusual illustration of this efficiency.",

        "raw_content": "Canadian Government To Investigate\nThousands Of Missing Indigenous Women\nThere is a strange thing happening in Canada. Research from the country's Native Women's Association estimates that as many as 4,000 native women may have gone missing or been murdered in the last three decades. An earlier study by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police put that figure closer to 1,200. The Canadian government has now begun a formal inquiry into the situation. Carolyn Bennett is the Canadian minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs. And she joins us from New York. Thanks for being with us.\nCAROLYN BENNETT: You're very welcome.\nMARTIN: Clearly, this is now something that the government thinks is troubling enough to launch its own investigation. What's the theory? Why do you think this is happening - all of these women going missing or being killed?\nBENNETT: Well, clearly in Canada the indigenous population, and particularly women, they are way overrepresented in the numbers that are murdered and/or have gone missing. Indigenous women are 4 percent of the population and 24 percent of those that are murdered.\nMARTIN: Can you give us a clearer picture of this demographic group? I mean, how well are they assimilated into the mainstream culture? What's their economic status like? What's the relationship to the authorities, to law enforcement?\nBENNETT: We have three distinct populations in Canada - First Nations, Inuit and Metis. They are increasingly moving to cities. But it is a huge problem in that we've also got more indigenous children in foster care than at the height of our tragedy of residential schools, when they were ripped from their families and put into boarding schools. So we know that assimilation is a bad idea. We know that children do well when there is a secure personal cultural identity - when they can be a proud Inuit young girl. And when that's taken from them and they no longer feel proud of that, they lose their sense of self, sense of control, and that they actually end up very vulnerable and at risk of terrible problems. We also are dealing with terrible problems in poverty and housing and educational attainment.\nMARTIN: Do you have any idea whether or not these alleged crimes - these deaths and disappearances - are happening - are being perpetuated by other members of the native population or outside of that population?\nBENNETT: Well, as you know, Rachel, most women die at the hands of someone they've known. In the indigenous population, it's a little bit less than in the non-indigenous population - a little bit more likely to be somebody that wasn't an intimate partner. But nonetheless, we know we've got to deal with child abuse that leads to addictions that leads to incarceration - is a huge issue both for men and women. We have learned through the hearings coast to coast to coast that there's been a very uneven application of justice in our country and that indigenous people are way overrepresented in the prisons. So we've got a lot of things that we have to deal with.\nMARTIN: Some of these cases, I understand, go back 30 years.\nBENNETT: Oh, indeed, and what we heard in the hearings is so sad because some of the cases were deemed a suicide or deemed an accident. And the investigation just wasn't done properly. And so the indigenous people in Canada felt that there was a completely uneven application of the justice system.\nMARTIN: So how is the investigation going to move forward? Will you be looking into cases that have been cold for decades?\nBENNETT: That's a deliberation. That's certainly what the families want - I think particularly the families who feel that the death of their loved one was deemed a suicide or an accident when they don't think so. There's a particularly tragic case where two young women - Maisy and Shannon - were deemed to be runaways, but their cell phones and their purses were left on the table. And the families know that there's no teenage girl that would leave their cell phone and their purse on the table if they were indeed about to run away. Another one of the deaths and one of the near-deaths were people - young women who were in the child-welfare system in a hotel in downtown Winnipeg with very little supervision. This is has captured the attention of Canadians. They know there's something really wrong going on, and I am honored that our prime minister has decided we have to get on and deal with it.\nMARTIN: Carolyn Bennett is Canada's minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs. Thanks so much for talking with us about this.\nBENNETT: You're very welcome.",

        "raw_content": "Saints CB Delvin Breaux Suffered Broken Fibula\nAfter suffering a heartbreaking 35-34 loss to the Oakland Raiders Sunday, the New Orleans Saints fear starting cornerback Delvin Breaux suffered a broken fibula.\nAccording to multiple reports, early indications from Breaux's injury suggest a broken fibula, though no official word has been released from the team.\nA typical broken fibula takes 6 to 8 weeks to recover from.\nBreaux, one of the best players on the Saints, missed a few series in the first half as trainers looked at his leg. He re-entered the game in the third quarter, before going down with the injury that took him out the game for good.\nOvercoming injury is something Breaux does well.\nOnce a high school standout in New Orleans McDonogh 35, he earned a football scholarship to LSU. In his senior year of high school, he broke his neck in three places, leading doctors to give him the news he\u2019d never play football again.\nBreaux did play football again, going from semi-pro, to Arena, to the CFL and eventually his hometown New Orleans Saints.\nHe was voted defensive MVP for 2015 by his teammates at the Saints team luncheon last week.\nUPDATE: Breaux underwent surgery Monday to repair his broken fibula. The Saints hope to have him back by midseason.\nFiled Under: delvin breaux, new orleans saints",

Join this session to understand the draft concepts and principles ONC has sought comment on as the development or support of a Framework and Common Agreement are underway.\nDon Rucker, MD, National Coordinator for Health IT, US Department of Health and Human Services\nGenevieve Morris, Principal Deputy National Coordinator for Health IT, US Department of Health and Human Services\nElise Sweeney Anthony, JD, Director, Office of Policy, Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, US Department of Health and Human Services\nAdvancing Interoperability Through Recognized Standards: ONC\u2019s Interoperability Standards Advisory\nDESCRIPTION: First published by ONC in January, 2015, the Interoperability Standards Advisory (ISA) has grown considerably from a short document that identified standards and implementation specifications for specific health IT purposes, to a well-curated, interactive web platform that is monitored by stakeholders and updated in near-real-time to reflect the latest changes in the health IT standards landscape. Join this session to learn about the ISA\u2019s purpose, structure, process for updates, as well as some of this year\u2019s most notable changes and additions.\nCreating a Data Infrastructure for Patient-Centered Outcomes Research\nDESCRIPTION: Research drives innovation and scientific discovery. As health IT use increases among individuals, providers, and public health entities, it creates a rich source of data. An integrated health system that uses data from multiple sources can facilitate analysis of real-world variations in tests and treatments, identify the best outcomes, and help accelerate dissemination of this information to clinicians and patients.

Book Review - Making the Link: Helping Children Link School Habits with the World of Work\nI have to admit that I can be kind of hard on school counseling books, because I informally review and the buy the ones I think are best for the school counselors in my division. I am especially hard on books that support the career domain. However, this book is particularly good! It has a lot of fun activities, it's easy to read and implement, it aligns with the ASCA competencies, it has pre- and post- tests in the chapters for the lessons and it has a CD for reproductables. What I really like about this book is that it addresses learning styles or modalities...which is extremely important for children to learn. This book is great for the novice or the experienced counselor.\nYou can purchase this book on the Youthliight site.

This latest in a long series of leaks highlights the immense challenge this nation faces in keeping secrets from China, and is a reminder that despite rapprochement, Beijing\u2019s efforts to recruit individuals with access to sensitive information are continuing.\nAccording to reports published on May 23, Chen Kun-shan (\u9673\u9315\u5c71), the head of the Center for Space and Remote Sensing Research (CSRSR) at National Central University (NCU) since 2001 and one of the nation\u2019s top researchers, went missing sometime in September 2013. Chen attracted the notice of the Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau (MJIB) in September after it was discovered that his passport had an exit stamp but did not have one for re-entry, leading to suspicions that he may have been traveling on a foreign passport. The previous month, Chen had sent wife and children to the U.S. NCU suspended him in November, a decision that awaits final approval by the Ministry of Education.",

        "raw_content": "Historical Context: Prior to 1890, the individual states (rather than the Federal government) regulated immigration into the United States. Castle Garden in the Battery (originally known as Castle Clinton) served as the New York State immigration station from 1855 to 1890 and approximately eight million immigrants, mostly from Northern and Western Europe, passed through its doors. These early immigrants came from nations such as England, Ireland, Germany and the Scandinavian countries and constituted the first large wave of immigrants that settled and populated the United States. Throughout the 1800's and intensifying in the latter half of the 19th century, ensuing political instability, restrictive religious laws and deteriorating economic conditions in Europe began to fuel the largest mass human migration in the history of the world. It soon became apparent that Castle Garden was ill-equipped and unprepared to handle the growing numbers of immigrants arriving yearly. Unfortunately compounding the problems of the small facility were the corruption and incompetence found to be commonplace at Castle Garden. From ellisisland.org\nApproximate Year of Birth\nAge of Arrival\nWhy This database is Valuable: The Ellis Island Passenger Arrival Records contains details for more than 24 million passengers and crew who arrived through the Port of New York at Ellis Island between January 1, 1892 and December 31, 1924. This index is provided in cooperation with FamilySearch and The Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation and contains passenger name, residence, year of arrival, and age on arrival. More complete records available on www.ellisisland.org also provide: ethnicity, exact date of arrival, gender, marital status, name of ship, and port of departure. The site also provides digital images of passenger ships and original passenger manifests which include even more details for each passenger - their final destination in America , physical conditions, education and more. You can also learn about the Ellis Island Immigration Experience.\nNext Steps: Depending upon the year that a passenger came into the United States, their previous residence is often listed giving an instant location of where to check for records going back years. A good way of checking on the location in question is to first try Googling the location to make sure that it is spelled correctly, and then search for a gazetteer to make sure that you have the full government administrative divisions for the place in question. This will help when searching for documents on the Family History Library Catalog's Place Search option. If the location is found (likely), then there could be any sort of pertinent data for the person in question and/or for their family. For an example, Slovakia during the 1890's was part of Hungary and all Hungarian vital records up through the early 20th century have been microfilmed by FamilySearch (formerly GSU) and there are new announcements concerning partnerships between FamilySearch and many societies and locations worldwide. Though the current chance that there will be information on family members via films of the FHL, there is an even greater chance as time goes by and partnerships enfold.\nThe Ellis Island Passenger Arrival Records contains details for more than 24 million passengers and crew who arrived through the Port of New York at Ellis Island between January 1, 1892 and December 31, 1924.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Main \u00bb Graham: You could be the Pope and Trump would still fire back\nIn June 2017, Trump said 15,000 immigrants from Haiti \"all have Aids\" and that 40,000 Nigerians, once seeing the U.S., would never \"go back to their huts\" in Africa, reports Business Insider. \"Durbin blew DACA and is hurting our Military\". Dick Durbin, who attended, and others who were briefed on the conversation but were not authorized to describe it publicly.\nAnd White House legislative director Marc Short, coming out of lengthy meetings with lawmakers on different sides of the issue, said the President was still looking for a deal that covered only existing DACA recipients, not a broader population, and a curtailing of family-based migration that goes beyond only those affected by a DACA measure - two elements inconsistent with the Durbin bill.\nWord of Trump's comments threatened to upend delicate negotiations over resolving the status of hundreds of thousands of immigrants who were brought to the country illegally as children.\n\"He's a Mexican\", Trump said to CNN in comments about Curiel, an American citizen who was born in IN, reports Reuters.\n\"I don't know if there will be a shutdown, there shouldn't be\", he said. If your genes are helped to prevent the disease, it is \"not because of the lifestyle - you just got lucky\", says Murphy. \"But he said love\", during the hearing, referencing an open and bipartisan meeting at the White House early last week.\nTrump said in his tweet that Durbin \"blew\" efforts to reach a deal on immigration, including addressing the fate of those who came to the USA illegally as children under a policy known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.\nRev Sharpton also accused Mr Trump of threatening national security after reports he used the term \"s***hole countries\" to describe Haiti and African countries.\nHours after the publication of the Washington Post article, which reported on the words of Donald Trump, the ambassador of Haiti in Washington had also \"formally condemned, in the name of the government\" of his country the words of the American president.\nGraham, a Republican from SC, said it was clear that the president, Sen. \"I stand behind every word that I said in terms of that meeting\".\nTrump previously denied using the word \"s***hole\", but admitted his language was \"tough\" during the Thursday meeting with lawmakers at the White House, where DACA was discussed. On Sunday night, Trump took questions and denied using the phrase \"shithole countries\", according to the Post.\nHe was in the meeting with Trump, along with Sens. \"The Democrats are the ones that aren't going to make a deal\", he reiterated on Sunday. The Times also has Trump saying, \"Why do we want people from Haiti here?\" \"And I know, and I know what Dick Durbin has said about the President's repeated statements is incorrect\". The letter, dated Tuesday, asks the president to \"reassess\" his views on the 54-nation continent, which it calls blessed with \"almost unparalleled natural resources\" and with which the USA has deep historical ties.\nIf Trump's claim here sounds familiar, that's because he has made it before (while facing similar accusations of racism). The Department of Homeland Security last week announced it would end protections more than 200,000 Salvadorans, and later in the week, the White House rejected a bipartisan immigration proposal, including a fix for people protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. \"Really? You don't know about Norway?\"\nAnd that's in keeping with Trump's broader view of working out - which I affectionately like to call the \"battery theory\".\nEarlier in the day budget director Mick Mulvaney blamed democrats for the stand-off described it as the \"Schumer Shutdown\". Bush's administration occurred during the three days of Columbus Day weekend from October 6 to October 9, 1990.\nLindsey Graham of SC , one of the six senators in the meeting with Trump on Thursday, supported Durbin's account. Ronny Jackson speaks during the daily press briefing at the White House on January 16, 2018 in Washington , DC.",

        "title": "Editorial: THE LAST OF US PART II Hopes and Expectations \u2014 GameTyrant",
        "raw_content": "PS4RantNaughty DogThe Last Of Us 2 about 2 years ago by Ross Vernon\nNaughty Dog has proven time and time again to be one of the most well respected developers in gaming history. Looking back at their previous games and their respective sequels, I think it's safe to say that The Last of Us Part II will be handled with much deserved TLC. In hopes to ease the nerves of some skeptical fans, Director Neil Druckmann stated during PSX \"All I ask is that fans of the first one put faith in us and trust us. We're going to do right by you.\"\nAt first I was one of these skeptical fans. Don't get me wrong, I knew a sequel to the The Last of Us was inevitable, but I couldn't imagine how they could continue Joel and Ellie's story and possibly surpass the original. But, knowing Naughty Dog, they wouldn't give us an undeserved sequel. So, here's a few things we hope to see in the sequel to help make it the epic game that fans deserve.\nImproved Immersion\nTLOU did a pretty good job making us believe we were in a post-apocalyptic America with its littered streets, ransacked homes, and frightening fungus infected populous. All of this was achieved on last gen hardware. Utilizing the power of the PS4, we can expect to see much more detail and interaction in the environments in TLOU2. The original gave us the tools to craft on the fly, from medkits to molotovs, but imagine being able to use the environment to your advantage as well. If Naughty Dog builds upon their large explorable open areas from Uncharted 4, then we could be seeing much larger areas in TLOU2. This would give the players more freedom as to where they can go and what they can do, disrupting the linear gameplay just a tad. We aren\u2019t expecting GTA sized open worlds, but giving us a bit of legroom would be nice.\nThe campaign for TLOU is definitely one of my all-time favorites. Surviving cross-country with Ellie was awesome, but I always felt like Naughty Dog really dropped the ball by not including any kind of co-op mode. The campaign is masterfully designed to be played by one player, but it would be great to get a co-op mode in the Factions multiplayer for TLOU2. Either an infected horde mode, where you survive for as long as you can with a friend, or even a story based co-op campaign. Some gamers don\u2019t like competitive multiplayer game modes, and this would be the perfect alternative once you\u2019ve completed your journey with Joel and Ellie.\nThe competitive multiplayer for TLOU has quiet a strong following despite having been released three years ago. Upon release, the original game launched with only two competitive modes along with a third releasing in an updated patch. Adding more content to their multiplayer would be a smart move by Naughty Dog and keep the gamers playing long after the credits roll. More modes and more maps, if they follow anything close to their Uncharted 4 DLC roadmap then they\u2019ll have gamers playing for a lot longer.\nImpactful Story\nThe story for TLOU2 is going to be the deal breaker for most fans. If the story isn\u2019t there, it just becomes another cash grab sequel. But if it can resonate with the audience as an extension of the first, and a complete journey, then it would truly become a worthy successor. A lot of fans were worried that a sequel would ruin the perfectly crafted story of the evolution of Joel and Ellie\u2019s relationship, noting that most sequels do not surpass their predecessors. But, this is not always the case. If you look at The Godfather Part 2 or The Empire Strikes Back, these are sequels that are highly noted to be equal or even surpass the original. Making sure the story is the main focus would be the only way to ensure that Naughty Dog has a worthy sequel and that is exactly what Neil Druckmann plans to do. Taking the cinematic approach to heart, making the plot a necessary piece of the overall story arch connecting the two seamlessly, hence the \u201cPart II\u201d in the title.\nSo there you have it! We have high hopes and expectations for this ambitious sequel. Here's to next year and looking forward to uncovering what plans Naughty Dog has set aside for us as we eagerly await to be drawn into the post-apocalyptic world of the cordyceps virus once again.\nEaster Egg in UNCHARTED 4 May be Indirectly Teasing THE LAST OF US Sequel\nCapcom Debuts Season 2 Of STREET FIGHTER V With Akuma And 92 Pages Worth Of Changes To The Game",

The land was originally granted to many diverse settlers that spread out to cultivate and develop the area. The city has cultivated its roots from three towns: The City of Galt, and the towns of Preston, Hespeler, and Blair, each with its own unique communities. Each town has contributed to Cambridge and its development, helping to create a strong foundation for growth since 1973. Oddly enough, the citizens of each town that would eventually be named Cambridge, didn't like the idea of combining together to become one large city. Today, Cambridge is unified, but many of its citizens still hold a strong pride to their region as each has its own vibrant history that is held as a public record in the Cambridge City Archives.\nThe city has grown to become a strong industrial leader with goods that are distributed all over the world. The rich income that has emerged from these cities has opened the door for more modern construction such as The Macdonald-Cartier Freeway Highway 401 that runs through the middle of Cambridge.\nThe city has many different cultural events and activities which include the Mill Race Festival, The Rock the Mill music festival in downtown Galt, and The Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory with its Dragon Boat Festival which has been entertaining people for over 100 years.\nEconomy of Cambridge, Ontario\nThe city of Cambridge has a strong claim to a diverse economy with many companies operating manufacturing plants in the local area. In 1988, Cambridge began its ascension into the world of global commerce with Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada opening a plant within the city. This has caused a boost in economic prosperity for the area and has started a flood of new investments that will catapult the city into a new age of economic development. Many international companies have built a strong global foundation in Cambridge; to name a few:\nChallenger Motor Freight Inc., Sutherland-Schultz Inc., Canadian General-Tower Ltd., iQor, Frito-Lay Canada, Babcock and Wilcox, Northstar Aerospace, Rockwell Automation, Com Dev and Northern Dynamics., Process Group Inc., Gerdau Ameristeel, ATS Automation Tooling Systems, and Loblaw Companies Limited.\nBut large scale economics isn't the only arena of expansion for the city. Local economics have experienced substantial growth that has allowed Cambridge to focus heavily on economic development. The city has been given the 2011 Computerworld Honors Program-Laureate Award. It has also been named 2011 Cities of the Future for Foreign Direct Investment as well as being titled the \"First Smarter City for Asset Management by IBM. Cambridge is also the first city in Canada that has been awarded the gold certification for taking the lead in Energy and Environmental Designs. Cambridge is making steps into the future:\nOver 7,295 business tenancies and 476 of them are manufacturing businesses that range from traditional textile manufacturing to cutting edge science and technology companies.\nCambridge has excellent commuting for nearby locations like Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph, Brantford, Mississauga, Milton, Hamilton and several communities in between.\nEmployed workforce at 67,225 with the surrounding areas recorded at 269,265 and an added pool of skilled workers.\nDecember 2012 recorded new non-residential construction at an estimated $47.9 million and new residential construction at $65.4 million.\nTotal building permits in the area for 2012 was recorded at $179.9 million.\nCambridge is definitely living up to its motto that it claims to be, \"A Fine Place For Business, A Great Place To Call Home.\"\nTo be properly insured for car insurance in the province of Ontario you must carry the following forms of coverage at all times: Property Damage, Uninsured Motorist, Third Party Liability, and Accident Benefits coverage.\nIn Ontario, you don't have to pursue the at-fault driver for direct compensation as the \"No-Fault\" car insurance system in effect.

Haraway an interview with Thyrza Nichols Goodeve. Routledge, 2000, pp. 6\u00e2\u0080\u00937. Haraway attended high school at St. Mary\u00e2\u0080\u0099s Academy in Cherry Hills Village, Colorado. Haraway majored in zoology, with minors in philosophy and english at the Colorado College, on the full-tuition Boettcher Scholarship.Haraway, How Like a Leaf (2000), pp. 12, 175 After college, Haraway moved to Paris and studied evolutionary philosophy and theology at the Fondation Teilhard de Chardin on a Fulbright scholarship.Haraway, How Like a Leaf (2000), p. 18.

Haraway was the recipient of a number of scholarships, to which she wittily accepted (alluding to the Cold War and post-war American hegemony) saying, \u00e2\u0080\u009c...people like me became national resources in the national science efforts. So, there was money available for educating even Irish Catholic girls\u00e2\u0080\u0099 brains.\"Bhavnani, Kum-Kum.; Haraway, Donna H. (February 1994), \"Shifting the Subject: A Conversation between Kum-Kum Bhavnani and Donna Haraway, 12 April1993, Santa Cruz, California\", Feminism & Psychology (Thousand Oaks:Sage Publications) 4(1):20.\n{{See also|A Cyborg Manifesto}}In 1985, Haraway published the essay \"Manifesto for Cyborgs: Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the 1980s\" in Socialist Review. Although most of Haraway's earlier work was focused on emphasizing the masculine bias in scientific culture, she has also contributed greatly to feminist narratives of the twentieth century. For Haraway, the Manifesto offered a response to the rising conservatism during the 1980s in the United States at a critical juncture at which feminists, in order to have any real-world significance, had to acknowledge their situatedness within what she terms the \"informatics of domination.\"BOOK, The Wiley Blackwell Encyclopedia of Gender and Sexuality Studies, Glazier, Jacob W., 2016, John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 9781118663219, 1\u00e2\u0080\u00932, 10.1002/9781118663219.wbegss318, Cyborg Manifesto, Women were no longer on the outside along a hierarchy of privileged binaries but rather deeply imbued, exploited by and complicit within networked hegemony, and had to form their politics as such.According to Haraway's \"Manifesto\", \"there is nothing about being female that naturally binds women together into a unified category. There is not even such a state as 'being' female, itself a highly complex category constructed in contested sexual scientific discourses and other social practices\". A cyborg does not require a stable, essentialist identity, argues Haraway, and feminists should consider creating coalitions based on \"affinity\" instead of identity. To ground her argument, Haraway analyzes the phrase \"women of color\", suggesting it as one possible example of affinity politics. Using a term coined by theorist Chela Sandoval, Haraway writes that \"oppositional consciousness\" is comparable with a cyborg politics, because rather than identity it stresses how affinity comes as a result of \"otherness, difference, and specificity\".Haraway's cyborg is a set of ideals of a genderless, race-less, more collective and peaceful civilization with the caveat of being utterly connected to the machine. Her new versions of beings reject Western humanist conceptions of personhood and promote a disembodied world of information and the withering of subjectivity. The collective consciousness of the beings and their limitless access to information provide the tools with which to create a world of immense socio-political change through altruism and affinity, not biological unity. In her essay Haraway challenges the liberal human subject and its lack of concern for collective desires which leaves the possibility for wide corruption and inequality in the world. Furthermore, the cyborg's importance lays in its coalition of consciousness not in the physical body that carries the information/consciousness. A world of beings with a type of shared knowledge could create a powerful political force towards positive change. Cyborgs can see \"from both perspectives at once.\" In addition, Haraway writes that the cyborg has an imbued nature towards the collective good.Haraway explains that her \"Manifesto\" is \"an effort to build an ironic political myth faithful to feminism, socialism, and materialism.\" She adds that \"Cyborg imagery can suggest a way out of the maze of dualisms in which we have explained our bodies and our tools to ourselves.\" Haraway is serious about finding future ways towards equality and ending dominating behavior; however, the cyborg itself is not as serious of an endeavor for her as the idea of it is. Haraway creates an analogy using current technologies and information to imagine a world with a collective coalition that had the capabilities to create grand socio-political change. Haraway's \"Manifesto\" is a thought experiment, defining what people think is most important about being and what the future holds for increased artificial intelligence.\nCyborg feminism\nIn her updated essay \"A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century\", in her book Simians, Cyborgs and Women: The Reinvention of Nature (1991), Haraway uses the cyborg metaphor to explain how fundamental contradictions in feminist theory and identity should be conjoined, rather than resolved, similar to the fusion of machine and organism in cyborgs.BOOK, A Glossary of Feminist Theory, Andermahr, Sonya, Lovell, Terry, Wolkowitz, Carol, Arnold, London, 1997, 978-0-340-59662-3, Great Britain, 51\u00e2\u0080\u009352, Haraway's \"Manifesto\" has considerably influenced the fields of feminism, science studies, and critical theory since its original publication.BOOK, The Wiley Blackwell Encyclopedia of Gender and Sexuality Studies, Glazier, Jacob W., John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2016, 9781118663219, 1\u00e2\u0080\u00932, english, 10.1002/9781118663219.wbegss318, Cyborg Manifesto, The manifesto is also an important feminist critique of capitalism.{{Citation needed|reason=According to whom?|date=April 2018}}\n\"Situated Knowledges\"\nSituated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspective sheds light on Haraway's vision for a feminist science. The essay originated as a commentary on Sandra Harding's The Science Question in Feminism (1986) and is a reply to Harding's \"successor science\". Haraway offers a critique of the feminist intervention into masculinized traditions of scientific rhetoric and the concept of objectivity. The essay identifies the metaphor that gives shape to the traditional feminist critique as a polarization. At one end lies those who would assert that science is a rhetorical practice and, as such, all \"science is a contestable text and a power field\".JOURNAL, Haraway, Donna, Autumn 1988, Situated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspective, Feminist Studies, 14, 3, 577, At the other are those interested in a feminist version of objectivity, a position Haraway describes as a \"feminist empiricism\".JOURNAL, Haraway, Donna, Autumn 1988, Situated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspective, Feminist Studies, 14, 3, 580,\nHaraway also writes about the history of science and biology. In Primate Visions: Gender, Race, and Nature in the World of Modern Science (1990), she focused on the metaphors and narratives that direct the science of primatology. She asserted that there is a tendency to masculinize the stories about \"reproductive competition and sex between aggressive males and receptive females [that] facilitate some and preclude other types of conclusions\".Carubia, Josephine M., \"Haraway on the Map\", in Semiotic Review of Books. 9:1 (1998), 4-7. She contended that female primatologists focus on different observations that require more communication and basic survival activities, offering very different perspectives of the origins of nature and culture than the currently accepted ones. Drawing on examples of Western narratives and ideologies of gender, race and class, Haraway questioned the most fundamental constructions of scientific human nature stories based on primates. In Primate Visions, she wrote:\"My hope has been that the always oblique and sometimes perverse focusing would facilitate revisionings of fundamental, persistent western narratives about difference, especially racial and sexual difference; about reproduction, especially in terms of the multiplicities of generators and offspring; and about survival, especially about survival imagined in the boundary conditions of both the origins and ends of history, as told within western traditions of that complex genre\".Primate Visions: Gender, Race, and Nature in the World of Modern Science, Routledge: New York and London, 1989. {{ISBN|978-0-415-90294-6}}Haraway's aim for science is \"to reveal the limits and impossibility of its 'objectivity' and to consider some recent revisions offered by feminist primatologists\".Russon, Anne. \"Deconstructing Primatology?\", in Semiotic Review of Books, 2:2 (1991), 9-11. Haraway presents an alternative perspective to the accepted ideologies that continue to shape the way scientific human nature stories are created.Elkins, Charles, \"The Uses of Science Fiction\", in Science Fiction Studies, 17:2 (1990).Haraway urges feminists to be more involved in the world of technoscience and to be credited for that involvement. In a 1997 publication, she remarked:I want feminists to be enrolled more tightly in the meaning-making processes of technoscientific world-building. I also want feminist\u00e2\u0080\u0094activists, cultural producers, scientists, engineers, and scholars (all overlapping categories) \u00e2\u0080\u0094 to be recognized for the articulations and enrollment we have been making all along within technoscience, in spite of the ignorance of most \"mainstream\" scholars in their characterization (or lack of characterizations) of feminism in relation to both technoscientific practice and technoscience studies.Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium.FemaleMan\u00c2\u00a9_Meets_OncoMouse\u00e2\u0084\u00a2: feminism and technoscience, New York: Routledge, 1997. {{ISBN|0-415-91245-8}}.\nHaraway's work has been criticized for being \"methodologically vague\"Hamner, M. Gail (2003), \"The Work of Love: Feminist Politics and the Injunction to Love\", in BOOK, Rieger, Jeorg, Opting for the Margins: Postmodernity and Liberation in Christian Theology, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 9780198036500, 2003-09-11, and using noticeably opaque language that is \"sometimes concealing in an apparently deliberate way\".JOURNAL, Cachel, Susan, Partisan primatology. Review of Primate Visions: Gender, Race, and Nature in the world of Modern Science, American Journal of Primatology, 22, 2, 139\u2013142, 10.1002/ajp.1350220207, 1990, harv, Several reviewers have argued that her understanding of the scientific method is questionable, and that her explorations of epistemology at times leave her texts virtually meaning-free.JOURNAL, Cartmill, Matt, Primate Visions: Gender, Race, and Nature in the world of Modern Science (book review), International Journal of Primatology, 12, 1, 67\u201375, 10.1007/BF02547559, February 1991, harv, A 1991 review of Haraway's Primate Visions, published in the International Journal of Primatology, provides examples of some of the most common critiques of her view of science:This is a book that contradicts itself a hundred times; but that is not a criticism of it, because its author thinks contradictions are a sign of intellectual ferment and vitality. This is a book that systematically distorts and selects historical evidence; but that is not a criticism, because its author thinks that all interpretations are biased, and she regards it as her duty to pick and choose her facts to favor her own brand of politics. This is a book full of vaporous, French-intellectual prose that makes Teilhard de Chardin sound like Ernest Hemingway by comparison; but that is not a criticism, because the author likes that sort of prose and has taken lessons in how to write it, and she thinks that plain, homely speech is part of a conspiracy to oppress the poor.This is a book that clatters around in a dark closet of irrelevancies for 450 pages before it bumps accidentally into its index and stops; but that is not a criticism, either, because its author finds it gratifying and refreshing to bang unrelated facts together as a rebuke to stuffy minds. This book infuriated me; but that is not a defect in it, because it is supposed to infuriate people like me, and the author would have been happier still if I had blown out an artery. In short, this book is flawless, because all its deficiencies are deliberate products of art. Given its assumptions, there is nothing here to criticize. The only course open to a reviewer who dislikes this book as much as I do is to question its author\u00e2\u0080\u0099s fundamental assumptions\u00e2\u0080\u0094which are big-ticket items involving the nature and relationships of language, knowledge, and science.Another review of the same book, appearing in a 1990 issue of the American Journal of Primatology, offers a similar criticism of Haraway's literary style and scholarly methods:There are many places where an editorial hand appears absent altogether. Neologisms are continually coined, and sentences are paragraph-long and convoluted. Biography, history, propaganda, science, science fiction, and cinema are intertwined in the most confusing way. Perhaps the idea is to induce a slightly dissociated state, so that readers can be lulled into belief. If one did not already possess some background, this book would give no lucid history of anthropology or primatology.However, a review in the Journal of the History of Biology disagrees:JOURNAL, Fausto-Sterling, Anne, Anne Fausto-Sterling, Essay review: Primate Visions, a model for historians of science?, Journal of the History of Biology, 23, 2, 329\u2013333, 10.1007/BF00141475, June 1990, harv, Primate Visions is one of the most important books to come along in the last twenty years. Historians of science have begun to write more externalist histories, acknowledging the possibilities of a science profoundly integrated with ongoing social agenda. Haraway's history of primatology in the twentieth century sets new standards for this approach, standards that will not be surpassed for some time to come. The book is important to students of science, feminists, historians, and anyone else interested in how the complex systems of race, gender, and science intertwine to produce supposedly objective versions of the \"truth.\" This analysis of primatology is at once a complex, interdisciplinary, and deeply scholarly history and an imaginative, provocative analysis of the working of science in late twentieth-century Euro-America.\nCrystals, Fabrics, and Fields: Metaphors of Organicism in Twentieth-Century Developmental Biology, New Haven: Yale University Press, 1976. {{ISBN|978-0-300-01864-6}}\n\"Manifesto for Cyborgs: Science, Technology, and Socialist Feminism in the 1980s\", Socialist Review, 80 (1985) 65\u00e2\u0080\u0093108.\n\"Situated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspectives\", Feminist Studies, 14 (1988) 575\u00e2\u0080\u0093599. {{DOI|10.2307/3178066}}\nPrimate Visions: Gender, Race, and Nature in the World of Modern Science, Routledge: New York and London, 1989. {{ISBN|978-0-415-90294-6}}\nSimians, Cyborgs and Women: The Reinvention of Nature, New York: Routledge, and London: Free Association Books, 1991 (includes \"A Cyborg Manifesto\"). {{ISBN|978-0-415-90387-5}}\n\"A Game of Cat's Cradle: Science Studies, Feminist Theory, Cultural Studies\", Configurations, 2 (1994) 59\u00e2\u0080\u009371. {{DOI|10.1353/con.1994.0009}}\nModest_Witness@Second_Millennium.FemaleMan\u00c2\u00a9Meets_OncoMouse\u00e2\u0084\u00a2: Feminism and Technoscience, New York: Routledge, 1997 (winner of the Ludwik Fleck Prize). {{ISBN|0-415-91245-8}}\nHow Like a Leaf: A Conversation with Donna J.

The PACE Awards celebrate automotive suppliers' game-changing innovations in products, manufacturing processes and information technology.\n\u201cWe are honored to be a finalist and receive recognition from Automotive News for our ground-breaking inner and outer door ring system, which plays a key part in offering better balance, strength and performance, while removing weight from the vehicle\u2019s body,\u201d said Todd Baker, president, ArcelorMittal Tailored Banks Americas. \u201cThis revolutionary technology takes the new Acura RDX\u2019s safety to the next level.\u201d\nThe inner door ring is comprised of five different gauges of ArcelorMittal\u2019s patented press hardenable steel, Usibor\u00ae 1500, while the outer door ring is comprised of four gauges of Usibor\u00ae 1500. ArcelorMittal co-engineered the five-seam inner door ring blanks and four-seam outer door ring blanks in such a way that it used the same welding tooling which eliminated changeovers, leading to cost reduction. The new ablation and multi-seam welding systems both have higher throughput versus the previous generation systems used to support the 2014 Acura MDX, which showcased the world\u2019s first laser-welded outer door ring \u2013 an innovation recognized with a PACE Award in 2014.\nIn addition to enhancing the vehicle\u2019s performance and safety, including supporting the achievement of an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ and five-star rating for the narrow offset crash test, the door ring solution also supported the automaker\u2019s lightweighting goals. Honda doubled the ultra high-strength steel content in the RDX to 30 percent, contributing to a weight reduction of 19 kg/42 lbs. over the previous model.\nTo learn more about this innovation, check out this video: \u201cA Safety Game Changer\u201d.",

        "raw_content": "Main Economy Trump Imposes Tariffs on $200B More of Chinese Goods\nAnd in the context of the trade war, those falls \"are worth noting\", said CBA commodity analyst Vivek Dhar.\nApple is breathing a sight of relief after its most important products avoided being added to a list of Chinese-produced products that will be subject to a new series of tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump. No one knows if Beijing will yield as pressure builds or instead stiffen its resolve and keep retaliating.\nChina yesterday retaliated against new United States trade tariffs, raising the risk thatPresident Donald Trump could soon impose duties on virtually all Chinese goods that America buys.\nIndia has postponed levying its own set of retaliatory tariffs on USA goods.\n\"We have a tremendous trade imbalance with China\", he said.\nHe continued: \"Deeply integrated into the world economy, the Chinese economy is inevitably affected by notable changes in the global economic and trade context\".\nIn the USA, prices are bound to rise since consumers depend on Chinese imports - not just for finished goods, but as parts and constituents of things made by American companies. It was not clear what statement from Beijing the president was referring to in his post. \"China has been taking advantage of the United States for a long time, and that's not happening anymore\", he said. The battle is popular among some labor groups: Union leaders in the Midwest have long blasted China for luring away factories with cheaper labor, and the White House has accused Beijing of stealing intellectual property from USA companies that enter its market.\nIf the Chinese government follows through with its threat to retaliate Sep.\nWhat does China do next?\nBut its options for responding further are getting increasingly complicated. 24, Trump has pledged to strike back with duties on $267 billion in Chinese products. The country imports far fewer goods from the USA than the US does from China: $130 billion versus $505 billion, to be specific.\nTrump's leap from tariffs on $50 billion worth of goods to $250 billion worth of goods is a remarkable escalation. They could jack up the tariffs they do have above the 25 percent threshold. From January 1, 2019, the tariffs will be reportedly raised to 25 percent.\nMulloy believes that there is a strong bipartisan support for Trump's China tariffs. China has a track record of such behavior, including making life hard for South Korean firms because of a political dispute previous year with South Korea's government over a United States missile defense system.\nLast week, the American Chambers of Commerce in China and in Shanghai reported 52 percent of more than 430 companies that responded to a survey said they have faced slower customs clearance and increased inspections and bureaucratic procedures.\nBut uncertainty remains over whether Chinese leaders will aggressively pursue that approach on wider scale -- by encouraging consumer boycotts of United States brands or disrupting supply chains.\nNational Retail Federation president Matthew Shay said: \"As thousands of businesses have testified and explained in comments to the administration, tariffs are a tax on American families\".\nChinese firms were the most pessimistic since the poll began in 2009.\nChina's economy continues its fast pace of growth and its potential remains vast, Li said, adding the pool was big enough for all companies to compete in. \"It's a very hard policy decision on China's part to find just the right touch to do this\". \"We don't want others to interfere in our domestic politics, and we will not interfere in the domestic politics of others\".\nTrump sent two tweets on September 18 blaming China as both parties announced they would slap new tariffs on each other. It's unclear whether those will now take place. \"But what the U.S. side has done doesn't show sincerity or goodwill\".\nPresident Donald Trump has repeatedly accused China of manipulating its currency to combat U.S. tariffs.\nTrump's new tariffs came as a surprise to Chinese leaders, who were planning to send a delegation headed by Vice Premier Liu He to Washington next week for a fresh round of talks.\nSeveral previous rounds of talks between the two sides failed to achieve any breakthroughs.\nShe also donned a five-meter veil that featured floral designs representing each of the 53 Commonwealth Countries.

        "title": "After 50: Nutritional Needs - Health For Free Nutritional",
        "raw_content": "Home/Health Tips/After 50: Nutritional Needs\nOur bodies change as we get older. That causes our nutritional needs to change, as well. Nutrition comes from food and water. Our nutritional needs may change based on whether you are a man or woman, certain medical conditions, activity level, and age.\nFood provides us with the energy and nutrients we need to stay healthy. Men and women need protein (meat, fish, dairy, beans, and nuts), carbohydrates (whole grains), fats (healthy oils), vitamins, minerals, and water. These things may actually help prevent some diseases, including osteoporosis, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.\nIt\u2019s even more important to practice \u201cmindful eating\u201d after the age of 50. This means we need to think and plan for everything we eat and drink. Tips for mindful eating include:\nChoose a variety of healthy foods at each meal. This includes servings of fruit, vegetables, protein, and whole grains.\nAvoid unhealthy calories, such as cakes, cookies, chips, soda, and alcohol.\nChoose foods that are low in fat and cholesterol. Avoid saturated and trans fats. Saturated fats are animal-based (red meat, dairy). Trans fats are found in processed foods. These are foods such as packaged baked goods.\nWatch portion sizes. Keep in mind that a 3-ounce serving of meat is about the size of a deck of cards. It\u2019s okay to treat yourself to chips once in awhile. Just don\u2019t mindlessly eat from a bag. Measure out an appropriate amount and then put the bag away.\nBuy pre-cut fruit and vegetables if it\u2019s difficult for you to cut them yourself.\nAdd healthy spices to your food if your tastes have changed. Do not add salt.\nLearn to read labels. Packaged items contain nutrition labels. These labels tell you what a serving size is, as well as the number of calories, total fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrates, and protein per serving.\nStrive to get the right nutrients in your meals each day. Good nutrients include:\ndietary fiber (fiber from food)\nSome nutrients are not good. Limit or avoid the following nutrients:\ntotal fat (saturated and trans fat)\nFollow your doctor\u2019s advice for nutrition. Not everyone has the same nutritional needs after the age of 50. A person who has diabetes may have to monitor carbohydrates first and calories second. A person with high blood pressure may need to watch his or her sodium levels more than other nutrients. Also, not all nutrients are the same. For example, the calories in fruit are healthier than the calories in cake. The carbohydrates in whole grains are healthier than those in candy.\nMen and women over the age of 50 need different amounts of calories each day. For example:\nWomen who are physically inactive should have 1,600 daily calories.\nWomen who are moderately active should have 1,800 daily calories.\nWomen who are very active should have between 2,000 and 2,200 daily calories.\nMen who are physically inactive should have 2,000 daily calories.\nMen who are moderately active should have between 2,200 and 2,400 daily calories.\nMen who are very active should have between 2,400 and 2,800 daily calories.\nAs we age, sodium is a concern for men and women. After age 50, people should consume no more than 1,500 milligrams per day of salt. That\u2019s about two-thirds of a teaspoon. Do not add table salt to your food. Read nutrition labels and watch the amounts of salt in packaged and processed foods. Canned foods and processed meats (bologna, bacon, hot dogs) contain high amounts of salt. Some sodium is good for your nerves. But too much can increase your risks of certain medical conditions.\nFor example, too much sodium causes your body to retain fluid. This can lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. For women older than 50 and post-menopausal, too much sodium causes your bones to lose calcium. This leads to the bone loss condition known as osteoporosis.\nFood safety is another concern for men and women over the age of 50. As we age, our bodies are less able to fight off infections that come from unsafe food. Wash raw foods with soap. Keep your hands, cutting tools, and surface areas clean with hot soapy water when preparing food. Cook your food to the required temperature. And always refrigerate foods within 2 hours of cooking.\nMost importantly, men and women over the age of 50 need plenty of water. Doctors recommend drinking water throughout the day to prevent dehydration. Dehydration can lead to dizziness, falls, low blood pressure, poor kidney function, and other conditions. Drinking enough water helps your kidneys flush the toxins from your body.\nEven if you are not thirsty, it\u2019s important to have water throughout the day. Plain water is best. However, you can get water from soup broths and limited amounts of coffee and tea. Too much caffeine strips your body of water. Try adding water to your routine by drinking a glass before each meal and snack. Sip it during meals and snacks, too. Be sure to drink plenty of water before exercising or being out in the sun.\nIf I naturally have low blood pressure, do I have to watch my daily sodium?\nCan I take vitamins to supplement what I\u2019m not getting from food?\nHow do I replace dairy if I am lactose intolerant?\nHow many daily calories should a man and a woman have if they are trying to lose weight?",

        "raw_content": "Deep Sea Corals of the Gulf\nThursday, 29 June 2017 11:53am\nMadrepora oculata is one species of deep water coral. Photo credit: \"Madrepora oculata\" (CC BY 2.0) by NOAA's National Ocean Service\nWelcome to GRN\u2019s deep sea coral (DSC) blog series! Each week, I will bring you a new species of DSC to learn about, and often a species of fish or other marine organism that is associated with DSCs. There are already over 3,300 species of DSC that have been discovered by scientific expeditions, with new ones being identified and named with each trip.\nUnfortunately, deep sea corals in the Gulf are under threat from warming waters, oil spills like the BP disaster, certain fishing methods, and other factors. Right now, the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council is considering new protections for some of our most precious corals. We\u2019ll keep you informed on how you can play an active role in protecting these corals.\nBefore we start with specific species of DSCs, here is some background about these animals.\nCoral are in fact animals! Coral structures can be as small as one polyp (the name of the animal that makes up coral) to thousands or million of polyps attached together, called a colony, to make up larger structures and reefs. An individual polyp can be anywhere from \u00bc inch long, to 12 inches long. While they can be found individually, they are often found in colonies or reefs where many polyps of the same and different species grow together.\nDSCs are corals that grow at depths deeper than 164 ft (50 m), and have been found as deep as 6,000 ft (1830 m) where water temperatures can reach 30.2\u00b0 F (-1\u00b0C). At these depths, sunlight does not reach the coral. As a result, DSCs must rely on different methods of food consumption than shallow water corals. Shallow water corals get food from a symbiotic relationship with an algae called zooxanthellae that live inside the tissue of the coral and produce food for the polyp through photosynthesis. There is not enough, or any, sunlight reaching deep sea corals for them to have this same relationship, so instead DSCs get nutrients by consuming small pieces of food that float by them.\nThe relatively little information we have on DSCs comes from remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) able to reach the depths the organisms dwell in, fitted with lights so that we can see what we are looking at (see image below). ROVs are our only window which we can look into to see these organisms, as many of them dwell at deeper depths than scuba divers can reach. Researchers will spend weeks out at sea using this technology to assist them in collecting both images and samples about DSCs and other organisms associated with them.\nAdditionally, these corals provide us benefits. Many species of fish that are both commercially and recreationally important rely on DSCs during part or all of their lifespans to provide food and shelter. Secondly, these corals can live for hundreds or thousands of year and so they provide information about what oceans of the past used to look like. There is the potential for deep sea corals to unlock medical advances as well. Deep sea corals live and grow for thousands of years, and some scientists speculate the traits that enable them to grow for such long periods of time may have uses in medicine.\nThis blog series will start by exploring different kinds of deep sea corals, and then move into more specific species of coral that can be found in the deep sea in the Gulf. Stay tuned to learn more about these fascinating creatures and the other animal that live with them.\nClick here to see a video of deep sea corals from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).\nTo explore the various species of coral that exist around the world, including in the Gulf of Mexico, click here to visit NOAA\u2019s interactive Deep Sea Coral map.\nHannah Leis is GRN\u2019s Fishery Associate.",

        "raw_content": "16 May 2017\u2022Budget Cuts, Carlos Garcia, HedgePapers, Luis Fortu\u00f1o, Privatization, Puerto Rico, Santander\nDOWNLOAD SPANISH VERSION HERE\nCarlos M. Garcia is profoundly conflicted as a former Santander[i] banking executive in his current role on the PROMESA control board, or the \u201cJunta.\u201d In the years preceding Governor Luis Fortu\u00f1o\u2019s election in 2008, Garcia built Santander Securities\u2014the bank\u2019s municipal bond business\u2014while Jose Ramon Gonzalez, another Junta member, was at the head of the bank.[ii] With Fortu\u00f1o\u2019s election, Garcia was given vast powers over fiscal policy as President of the Government Development Bank (\u201cGDB\u201d), Chair of the local control board (a special board comprised of five cabinet-level officials with ministerial responsibility for Puerto Rico\u2019s fiscal matters and restructuring powers conferred by the Puerto Rico Legislature), and head of Puerto Rico\u2019s new Public Private Partnerships Authority (PPPA).[iii]\nA previous report, Pirates of the Caribbean, documented the role Garcia and Santander played in Puerto Rico\u2019s public finance disaster and the virtual revolving door former bank executives had with the GDB from 2009 to 2012. This report details how one of Garcia\u2019s first steps at the GDB was to liquidate Puerto Rico\u2019s infrastructure fund, called the Corpus Account, and leave it with only an expensive IOU payable in the distant future.\nThe liquidation of the Corpus Account left Puerto Rico without capacity to modernize its water and sanitation systems.[iv] These systems are vital to protecting the public\u2019s health against mosquito-born virus epidemics and other diseases.[v] Garcia promoted public-private partnerships, which have failed to adequately meet Puerto Rico\u2019s infrastructure needs. While Garcia headed the PPPA, the only water infrastructure project launched sought private sector investment to improve PRASA\u2019s revenue collections, to counter \u201cwater theft.\u201d[vi]\nThe liquidation of the Corpus Account left Puerto Rico without capacity to modernize its water and sanitation systems. Click To Tweet\nThe Corpus Account had more than $1 billion dedicated to essential water and sewer projects, which under Garcia, the GDB diverted into a series of financial transactions that were intended to bolster the island\u2019s credit rating, but which became tied up in the issuance of billions in new debt. This debt ultimately helped push the GDB into insolvency.\nThe GDB borrowing was part of a larger fiscal restructuring carried out under Garcia that has saddled Puerto Rico with debt on unfavorable terms. For example, Puerto Rico\u2019s debt today includes billions in capital appreciation bonds secured by sales tax revenue (known by Spanish acronym COFINA, \u201cCOFINA Cabs\u201d), which accrue and compound interest over decades. This means the amounts due when the bonds mature can be ten times or more than the amount originally borrowed.[vii] Even partial repayment of this debt would redirect desperately needed funds to wealthy banks and Wall Street, and would represent a catastrophic burden for Puerto Rico\u2019s people and its economy.\nWhile Garcia directed the issuance of billions in COFINA bonds as well as GDB notes from 2009 to 2011, his former employer, Santander, earned millions as a lead or participating underwriter in these transactions. Santander is a major COFINA bondholder and has publicly petitioned the Junta asking that Puerto Rico not be forgiven its toxic debts. Santander\u2019s revolving door with the GDB in the crucial years leading up to the island\u2019s bond defaults have created major conflicts of interest with the Puerto Rican government.\nThe conflicts of interest now extend to Carlos M. Garcia in his role on the PROMESA control board. Garcia\u2019s relationship with Santander and his role at the GDB under the Fortu\u00f1o administration compromise his ability to implement a fair fiscal program that addresses the humanitarian needs of the Puerto Rican people. Sadly, Garcia has been given another opportunity to help address the debt crisis with the same failed formula that he used to exacerbate it: divert Puerto Rico\u2019s public resources to Wall Street creditors, cut critical public spending, and put private interests in control of infrastructure projects vital to the public\u2019s wellbeing. Garcia must step down from the Junta, and Puerto Rico must be forgiven of its toxic debt that he helped to create.\nPrivatization of Telephone Company Creates Infrastructure Fund and Pays Big for Investors\nThe Corpus Account was originally funded with $1.2 billion from the proceeds of the GDB\u2019s 1999 privatization of Puerto Rico\u2019s telephone company.[viii] An Act passed by the Puerto Rican Legislature (Act No. 92) established the Corpus Account as a permanent investment vehicle for infrastructure projects. The Corpus Account\u2019s income was set aside solely for financing Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority (PRASA) projects and improvements necessary under the provisions of the Federal Clean Water Act and the Federal Drinking Water Act.[ix]\nWhen then-Governor Pedro Rossell\u00f3[x] announced the plan to sell a controlling stake in the phone company to a consortium including GTE, Banco Popular of Puerto Rico and an employee ESOP plan, 6,000 telephone company workers went on strike to protest in an attempt to stop the deal.[xi] Ultimately, 50 unions representing 300,000 public employees and others joined the telephone workers and staged a two-day general strike to protest the sale. The acquiring consortium ultimately gained a 53% percent stake.[xii]\nOnce the Corpus Account had been established, it was managed by Puerto Rico\u2019s Infrastructure Financing Authority (PRIFA), a wholly owned subsidiary of the GDB.[xiii] According to Act No. 92, the Corpus Account\u2019s principal was to be kept in a \u201csegregated, permanent account\u201d and should \u201cnever be reduced for any reason.\u201d[xiv] Moreover, the account\u2019s $1.2 billion was to be invested safely and \u201cexclusively in U.S. government or U.S. government-backed obligations.\u201d[xv]\nHaving established the Corpus Account from the proceeds of the phone company sale, PRIFA issued $1.093 billion of bonds in October 2000, secured by the interest earned on the Corpus Account. Santander helped underwrite these bonds through a cooperation agreement with Merrill Lynch, along with ten other banks.[xvi] The bond issue\u2019s official statement noted that that the interest received from the Corpus Account\u2019s investments would \u201cbe sufficient to pay when due the principal of, and interest on, the 2000 Series Bonds.\u201d[xvii] Proceeds from the bond issue went to fund PRASA projects throughout Puerto Rico, consistent with the mission of the Corpus Account.\nOver the next eight years, investment income from the Corpus Account was applied to pay principal and interest on the 2000 Series Bonds. Most of the bonds, which carried interest rates between 4.1% and 5.5%, were set to mature in 25 to 40 years with about 5% of the bond principal tied to variable interest rates. As these bonds were paid off, the $1 billion in the Corpus Fund was intended to secure borrowing for additional water and sewer projects.[xviii]\nMeanwhile, the privatization of the phone company proved very profitable for the private investors. The lead investor, GTE merged with Bell Atlantic to become Verizon, which sold its 52% stake in the Puerto Rican telephone company to Carlos Slim\u2019s America Movil in 2007 for $980 million, booking a pre-tax gain of $120 million.[xix]\nGarcia and Santander\u2019s Rise in Public Finance in Puerto Rico\nOn November 4, 2008, Luis Fortu\u00f1o was elected governor of Puerto Rico as the New Progressive Party (NPP) was swept into power. Nine days later Fortu\u00f1o tapped Carlos M. Garcia, the President and COO of Banco Santander de Puerto Rico, to run the island\u2019s GDB. At the same time, Fortu\u00f1o tapped former Santander executive Jose Ramon Gonzalez to serve on his Economic Reconstruction and Fiscal Advisory Committee, which was tasked with creating a plan to resolve the island\u2019s cash-flow problem and setting parameters for public-private partnerships (PPPs).[xx]\nEven before leaving his position at Santander, Garcia began to work for Fortu\u00f1o\u2019s transition government. Garcia accompanied Fortu\u00f1o on a visit to Wall Street in December 2008 to meet with rating agencies and bond investors. There, Garcia and Fortu\u00f1o tried to reassure the bond market that they had a plan to address the island\u2019s fiscal situation.[xxi] Days later, Garcia received a $1.25 million payment from Grupo Santander as part of a severance agreement.[xxii]\nAs they took power on January 2, 2009, Governor Fortu\u00f1o and Garcia moved swiftly to implement dramatic changes to the island\u2019s fiscal policy, which included liquidating the infrastructure fund. The new administration helped enact numerous laws that tied government cuts to questionable financial engineering techniques.[xxiii] Law No. 3, passed less than two weeks after Fortu\u00f1o took office and Garcia took control of the GDB, enabled one of the most important new policies. Law No. 3 overturned a previous statute that had established the $1.2 billion Corpus Account. The new law authorized the sale of the infrastructure fund\u2019s securities.[xxiv]\nAusterity and Privatization in 2009\nThe liquidation of the infrastructure fund was part of a larger fiscal overhaul of Puerto Rico, driven by the local control board, the GDB and the Fortu\u00f1o administration. Together they enacted policies that laid of tens of thousands of public employees and that privatized public assets. In March 2009, Law No. 7 created a \u201clocal control board\u201d to execute a fiscal stabilization plan that included \u201cmeasures to provide the liquidity required to guaranty the essential services to the people of Puerto Rico and to fund the extra-constitutional debt.\u201d[xxv] To provide that liquidity, the administration took steps like unilaterally suspending union contracts, overriding labor laws to dismiss public employees, and denying job protections to union workers.[xxvi]\nGarcia\u2019s GDB also began to aggressively promote public-private partnerships (PPPs) in lieu of the public fund for infrastructure development.[xxvii] PPPs typically involve entering into long-term contracts with a private company to induce the company to finance, build, or operate a public service. The private company gets paid through charges paid by users, or from payments from the public authority, or a combination of both.[xxviii] Vast arrays of experiences in infrastructure development projects through PPPs over decades have shown their potential risks and expense to governments. PPPs can expose the public to the possibility of incomplete contracts, the likelihood of renegotiations, and to liabilities in case of bankruptcy or default by the private company.[xxix]\nGarcia was appointed head of Puerto Rico\u2019s new Public-Private Partnerships Authority (PPPA) while at the GDB. The Authority privatized the Luis Mu\u00f1oz Mar\u00edn International Airport, and launched school modernization, toll and many other initiatives.[xxx] According to his resume, Garcia chaired the implementation of five major infrastructure projects while at the PPPA. The only water-related infrastructure project he headed, called \u201cImplementation of Advanced Technologies for the Reduction of Non-Revenue Water in Puerto Rico,\u201d sought private sector support to improve PRASA\u2019s revenue collections to counter \u201cwater theft.\u201d[xxxi]\nLooting the Infrastructure Fund\nThe infrastructure fund was liquidated after the enactment of Law No. 3, which allowed the GDB under Garcia to sell all the securities in the Corpus Account. According to a presentation Garcia gave to Puerto Rican creditors in 2010, the sale \u201ctook advantage of market dislocations and provided a significant one-time gain to the Government.\u201d[xxxii]\nThis gain from the sale of securities however was not used to fund water and sewer projects needed by Puerto Rico. Instead the amount raised was $1.95 billion in cash, of which $1.2 billion went to pay off the original PRIFA bondholders from 2000. After paying the bondholders $766 million remained, from which approximately $310 million was siphoned off to cover Commonwealth budget deficits and $155 million was used to recapitalize the GDB.[xxxiii] That left $300 million for the original Corpus Account. This amount was deposited with the GDB and the GDB in return provided the infrastructure fund with a \u201cguaranteed investment contract,\u201d which was supposed to have the GDB pay back the Corpus Account approximately $1.2 billion by 2040.\nThis transaction was, as Law No. 3 stated without irony, \u201cconsistent with the original purpose of said Act No. 92, since they both share the objective of protecting the Corpus Fund so that in 2040, said Fund shall have $1.2 billion for the benefit of the People of Puerto Rico.\u201d[xxxiv] However, the remaining $300 million could not be used for infrastructure development as it was tied up in a GDB contract, not unlike how a purchaser of a Certificate of Deposit (CD) account cannot spend their investment while it is deposited with the bank.\nGarcia GDB Goes on Borrowing and Refinancing Binge\nDuring Garcia\u2019s tenure the GDB moved from its previous role as an agent for infrastructure lending and economic development to taking a lead role in deficit financing among the Commonwealth and its related entities.[xxxv] With the profits from the sale of the Corpus Account securities, Garcia\u2019s GDB was able to recapitalize itself and go on a borrowing and refinancing binge. Between December 2008 and 2009, the GDB sold $2.8 billion in notes and it sold another $2.8 billion in the same period between 2009 and 2010.[xxxvi] In total the GDB issued roughly $11 billion in notes, mostly during Fortu\u00f1o\u2019s administration, and half of that remained outstanding by 2013.[xxxvii]\nSantander Securities and other local banks took the lead in underwriting these notes, earning underwriting fees and profits by selling them to their customers and placing them elsewhere in the secondary market. For example, Santander acted as a lead underwriter of four GDB bond issues worth $4.6 billion between December 2008 and 2011, sharing in over $43 million in underwriter\u2019s discount and fees.[xxxviii]\nWhile these GDB notes were marketed all over the world, about half were sold in Puerto Rico by Santander and other banks to local investors.[xxxix] Many Santander customers held and continue to hold the notes indirectly through their purchase of shares in the bank\u2019s \u201cFirst Puerto Rico\u201d closed-end mutual funds. The investments are now worth a small fraction of their initial value and local investors have lost millions as the GDB has declined into insolvency.[xl]\nThe Infrastructure and Pension Funds Get Stuck with \u201cCOFINA Cab\u201d IOU\u2019s\nEven the Corpus Account\u2019s remaining $300 million on deposit at the GDB proved too tempting for the financial engineers in the Fortu\u00f1o administration. In 2011, the legislature passed Law No. 96, which took $162.5 million of money left in the Corpus Account and applied it to shore up the public employees\u2019 pension plan,[xli] which in turn, had been previously leveraged in 2008 through several bond issues that Santander and other banks had helped underwrite and profited from.[xlii]\nThe $162.5 million was not actually made available to the pension fund to pay benefits, instead, it was invested in a COFINA capital appreciation bond series[xliii] that would accrete interest at 7% but would not be mature until 2043 through 2048.[xliv] The accreting interest on these bonds meant that at maturity they would be worth $1.65 billion, representing a gain of more than ten times their initial amount.[xlv]\nLaw No. 96 also obliged the remaining $165 million left in the Corpus Account to be invested in the same COFINA capital appreciation bonds; noting \u201cit is projected that the maturity value of each one of these COFINA bonds shall be of approximately $1.2 billion, thus achieving the purpose of protecting the Fund\u2019s Corpus Account.\u201d[xlvi] In reality, Law No. 96 allowed the GDB to leave the Corpus Account with nothing but an expensive IOU payable in the distant future.\nIt is difficult to imagine that the GDB genuinely believed toxic COFINA Cabs assigned to the Corpus Account and the pension fund would be repaid at maturity.[xlvii] This should raise questions about why the GDB stuck the infrastructure and the public employees pension funds with these dubious IOUs. It\u2019s possible that the GDB may have calculated that it would be able to refund these high cost bonds as early as 2016,[xlviii] but Puerto Rico has now defaulted on its debt and the GDB has become insolvent.\nIn summary, the bulk of proceeds from the privatization of a profitable, publicly owned telephone company, earmarked for crucial Puerto Rican water projects, has been turned into paper dust. The Corpus Account no longer funds infrastructure development, but consists of a bond notes due in 2043 that are obligations of COFINA and ultimately, the Puerto Rican sales and use taxpayers.\nAusterity and Privatization in 2017, a Case of D\u00e9j\u00e0 Vu\nEarly in 2016, Garcia testified to Congress in favor of creating another control board to address Puerto Rico\u2019s fiscal crisis. In his testimony he asserted that the \u201ccontinued service\u201d of his previous local control board (2009-2011) would have averted the \u201cre-enacted Puerto Rico crisis.\u201d He said it had failed in two areas, to reform and overhaul Puerto Rico\u2019s labor law and its government agencies, implying that he favored further attacks on collective bargaining, pensions and privatization of public assets.[xlix] Within months of this testimony the Obama White House announced the appointment of seven individuals including Garcia to a new PROMESA control board that would supervise Puerto Rico\u2019s fiscal affairs and restructure its debt.\nSince the Junta has been established, Puerto Ricans have been subjected to new austerity measures, which have been designed in part to appease Wall Street creditors. Under current-Governor Ricky Rossell\u00f3, Law No. 4 or the Labor Transformation and Flexibility Act was enacted. This Act dramatically weakens existing labor rules, including working time, compensation and benefits for Puerto Rican workers.[l] House Bill No. 938, signed into law April 29, 2017, nullifies collective bargaining agreements and permanently limits employee benefits in the public sector.[li]\nThe Junta has pushed harder for austerity than Governor Rossell\u00f3, requesting $3 billion in spending reductions over two years, half of which are aimed essential services: $1 billion in healthcare cuts, $300 million in education cuts, and $200 million in cuts to the pension system.[lii] The Junta has called for even deeper budget cuts by 2021 that include $1.3 billion in personnel spending and gutting nearly half of the University of Puerto Rico\u2019s budget: $450 million. The Junta has all but ignored stimulus, with the exception of including spending on public-private partnerships in its fiscal plan.[liii] This is more bad news for Puerto Ricans, who need higher wages and good jobs to deal with skyrocketing costs.\nSantander Pressures Junta to Ensure COFINA Debt is Paid\nMeanwhile, Santander has become an activist in pressuring the Junta to order repayment of the COFINA bondholders. In March 2017, Santander joined all major creditors of Puerto Rican debt in writing to the PROMESA control board, complaining that its fiscal plan did not take their concerns into account. Santander signed onto the letter as one of three major COFINA bondholders through its First Puerto Rico family of closed-end mutual funds, which held in $3.65 billion in bonds issued by COFINA and $1.8 billion in GO bonds issued or guaranteed by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.[liv]\nAs members of the Junta, former Santander executives Carlos Garcia and Jose Ramon Gonzalez will play a significant role in the negotiations that will determine whether and how these debts have to be repaid.[lv] They should not be repaid\u2014even in part. The Junta should ignore the pleas of conflicted creditors like Santander. Instead, the COFINA bonds and GDB notes held and managed by Santander on behalf of its Puerto Rican customers should be canceled and the customers should be repaid in full, directly from Santander, which as a global concern earned $1.8 billion Euros in the first quarter of 2017 alone.\nGarcia\u2019s GDB directed the issuance of billions in notes and COFINA bonds, diverting funds originally intended for vital sewer and water treatment projects into unpayable high-cost debt. As a result, Puerto Rico\u2019s capacity to deal with Zika and other mosquito-born virus epidemics has been diminished and it is being told to rely on the private sector.[lvi] Puerto Rico has also been prevented from funding other crucial public services by the diversion of sales taxes to secure and repay bad debt deals like COFINA Cabs. As stated earlier, even partial repayment of COFINA bonds amounts to a catastrophic burden for the people and the economy of Puerto Rico.\nSantander must be held accountable for its role in promoting and profiting from Puerto Rico\u2019s troubled transactions. The bank served as lead underwriter of four GDB bond issues worth $4.6 billion between December 2008 and 2011, earning over $43 million in underwriter\u2019s discount and fees.[lvii] Garcia has also personally profited from his close relationship with Santander, where he worked immediately before and after his tenure at the GDB, receiving a $1.25 million severance payment from the bank prior to joining the Fortu\u00f1o administration.[lviii]\nSantander must be held accountable for its role in promoting and profiting from Puerto Rico\u2019s troubled transactions. Click To Tweet\nLike Santander, Garcia appears to strongly support the segregation of the COFINA bond obligations, much of which is held in costly capital appreciation bonds, and the continuing use of sales tax revenue to pay the COFINA bonds back, as noted in his PROMESA testimony on Capitol Hill in 2016.[lix] Santander is a major COFINA bondholder petitioning the Junta to ensure that it recovers its investments. Garcia\u2019s conflicts of interest raise troubling questions about whether the very individuals involved in creating and profiting off of the debt should be allowed to insist that others must now pay it off.\nThe Junta has subjected Puerto Ricans to many controversial austerity measures, but has been mostly silent on direct stimulus, with the exception of questionable public-private partnerships for infrastructure development.[lx] The austerity approach will fail in Puerto Rico just as similar approaches have failed in Greece and Portugal.[lxi] To help Puerto Rico recover, there must be direct economic stimulus\u2014which appears unlikely unless banks like Santander and private bank executives like Carlos Garcia are held accountable for their role in helping drown Puerto Rico in unpayable public debt.\n[i] We use Santander to mean Banco Santander, SA, and all its affiliates.

The sales tax revenue bond allowed the island to issue new bonds that would not count against the 15% limit. By 2011, an extraordinary amount of debt was being issued by Puerto Rico, including in COFINA capital appreciation bonds (CABs). Refund America estimates that Puerto Rico has $37.8 billion in CAB debt, for which the underlying principal is just $4.3 billion, an effective interest rate of 785%. Refund America also estimates that $36.9 billion of Puerto Rico\u2019s debt is COFINA debt, and 63% of total CAB debt belongs to COFINA. Refund also states the investors (including hedge funds) that now own CAB debt bought the debt at steep discounts on the secondary market because the previous creditors had already written in down as bad debt, meaning the current owners (including hedge funds) never expected the island to be able to repay all of it. Moreover, the sheer magnitude of the size of this debt at maturity (in the distant future) and the effective interest rate raises the question about whether the GDB expected to be able to repay it at all, as well. See \u201cOpinion: COFINA deal is huge blow to dwindling appeal of Puerto Rico\u2019s bonds,\u201d Ivan Rivera, FoxNews, May 2, 2016 and \u201cPuerto Rico\u2019s Payday Loans,\u201d Refund America.\n[xlviii] The bond documents state that the issuer had option to redeem them as early as 2016.\n[xlix] See Carlos Garcia testimony \u201cThe Need for the Establishment of a Puerto Rico Financial Stability and Economic Growth Authority,\u201d on February 2, 2016 before the Subcommittee on Indian, Insular and Alaska Native Affairs of the Committee on Natural Resources of the U.S. House of Representatives.\n[l] See \u201cPuerto Rico: Major labor law and benefit reforms aim for flexibility and competitiveness,\u201d Willis Towers Watson, March 27, 2017.\n[li] \u201cHouse Bill 938 Would Void Right to Collective Bargaining,\u201d Caribbean Business, Cindy Burgos Alvarado, April 26, 2017.

        "raw_content": "Maybe There's Been a Fake Tet Offensive after All\nIf the past month has been the deadliest for U.S. troops since October of last year, maybe there's an attempt at an annual October surprise.\nOn the other hand, the Other Side is so ineffective that their best efforts can hardly be told from a random fluctuation. I'm reminded of Plankton's sinister plots on Spongebob Squarepants.\nFetus, Incorporated?\nWhile looking for other people's comments on J. D. Hayworth and Jonathan Tratt (earlier comments here and here), I found the following non-sequitur in a troll's comments at Jews for Life:\nWow. And I thought the crazy left were supposed to be the conspiracy theorists. I guess there's plenty of conspiracy to go around. Thank you for keeping me apprised of how things are spinning on the right fringe.\nBest, An Immoral Liberal Reader (immoral by default, right? because the Lord protects those who fight for the rights of major corporations.\nI never realized fetuses were major corporations. How are fetal stocks doing nowadays? What's the return on investment? Will it soon be the Dow-Jones-Embryo Average?\nSearch-Engine Query Oddity\nI've gotten around a dozen referrals from search engines asking \u201c:Who discovered the world is round?\u201d in the past couple of weeks. I didn't know I was an authority on the topic.\nWhile I'm on the topic, the answer to the question \u201cWho discovered America?\u201d may surprise you.\nHe Shouldn't Have Gone to an Extremely-Reform Synagogue, Part II\nIn the first part, I discussed a candidate's forum at an Extremely-Reform synagogue in which anti-abortion remarks from Jonathan Tratt produced a mass walkout. This, in turn, provoked his Israeli-born wife, Irit, to say, \u201cNo wonder there are antisemites.\u201d I have some idea of what she might have meant by that.\nIt's common in the Holocaust-denier and Holocaust-excuser community to claim that Jews should not complain about the Holocaust because we supposedly back the far bloodier phenomenon of abortion. (At other times, they claim we're in cahoots with Catholics to raise the birth rate of the mud people.) In response, I sometimes point out that support for abortion is not unanimous among Jews and there are reasons within Jewish tradition to hold to a strict anti-abortion standard. If Irit Tratt had participated in similar flame wars, the sentence \u201cNo wonder there are antisemites.\u201d might mean that fervently pro-abortion Jews are making it harder to come up with anti-antisemitic arguments.\nHe Shouldn't Have Gone to an Extremely-Reform Synagogue\nIn Arizona, Representative J.D. Hayworth has been accused of antisemitism for saying something favorable about Henry Ford. (My personal opinion is that it's a bad sign when a supposed conservative is as ignorant of history as most liberals \u2026 but that's another rant.) In order to combat that, he sent Jonathan Tratt, one of his a Jewish supporters, to defend his record at a candidates\u2019 forum at Temple Beth Israel in Scottsdale:\nJonathan Tratt, a real estate investor and political fund-raiser, made the remark while defending Hayworth\u2019s opposition of abortion rights. Tratt, who is Jewish, was referring to the fact that although ancient rabbinic law does not ban abortion, it restricts it to instances when the health of the mother is in danger.\nThe term \u201chealth\u201d is too fuzzy. They mean the life of the mother. The remark produced an odd reaction:\nThe comment by Jonathan Tratt, a spokesman for the Hayworth campaign, drew loud and angry boos and caused nearly three-quarters of the crowd of more than 200 to walk out in disgust. After the walkout, another Hayworth surrogate, Irit Tratt, stood on the Temple's bimah as she told members of the audience who gathered to ask questions, \"No wonder there are anti-Semites.\"\nIt's about time one of us anti-abortion Jews spoke out.\nOn the other hand, I don't think \u201cNo wonder there are anti-Semites.\u201d was an ideal response. They should have said \u201cYour attempt to convert us to Christianity did not work.\u201d\nIt should not be astounding that a Baptist was closer to Jewish tradition than Extremely-Reform Jews. After all, Orthodox Jews are more Catholic than the Catholics. They don't approve of the rhythm method and they're more thorough about insisting that scripture can only be interpreted in the light of tradition.\nI will, of course, remember that this has been described as obvious evidence that conservatives are antisemitic the next time somebody makes that claim. I consider such claims to emanate from the Jewish equivalent of CAIR.\nSpeaking of the Jewish equivalent of CAIR \u2026\nI recently accused Debbie Findling, one of the people in the \u201cWe Had Abortions\u201d petition, of having an inappropriate career as a philanthropic foundation executive. Her job is not so inappropriate. It turns out that she's the Deputy Director of the Goldman Fund, an organization devoted to keeping Jews liberal and abortion unrestricted.\nAn Imitation Tet Offensive as an October Surprise\nIf the loons running Iran wanted to swing the Congressional election over to the Party of Surrender and if they had widespread support in the Shiite areas of Iraq, they could probably start an imitation Tet Offensive designed to disrupt the U.S. Army's supply lines between the Persian Gulf and Baghdad. If they don't, that might be evidence they don't have any local support.\nEven if they started one tomorrow, that would mean they don't think they can sustain such an offensive for more than two weeks. If they thought it could last longer they would have started it already.\nPart II of Do You Believe in \u03930?\nThe first part of the discussion of applying standard atheist claims to mathematics can be found here.\nThere is a common atheist theory that religious ideas simply reflect the way we evolved instead of the nature of reality. I see no reason why something that evolved would not reflect reality and it stands to reason that something evolved, something that helps us survive, would be more likely to reflect reality. The opposite assumption was ridiculed by Ayn Rand:\nHis argument, in essence, ran as follows: man is limited to a consciousness of a specific nature, which perceives by specific means and no others, therefore, his consciousness is not valid; man is blind, because he has eyes\u2014deaf, because he has ears\u2014deluded, because he has a mind\u2014and the things he perceives do not exist, because he perceives them.\nRecently, George Lakoff (his nonsense is not limited to politics) has apparently been applying the above theory to mathematics. (I say apparently because Wikipedia is not always reliable):\nLakoff has also claimed that we should remain agnostic about whether math is somehow wrapped up with the very nature of the universe. Early in 2001 Lakoff told the AAAS, \"Mathematics may or may not be out there in the world, but there's no way that we scientifically could possibly tell.\" This is because the structures of scientific knowledge are not \"out there\" but rather in our brains, based on the details of our anatomy. Therefore, we cannot \"tell\" that mathematics is \"out there\" without relying on conceptual metaphors rooted in our biology.\nWill he next claim that we cannot tell if light is \u201cout there\u201d?\nI've Always Wanted \u2026\n\u2026 a nuclear power plant in my backyard. According to Michael Anissimov (seen via The Speculist), I might get one soon.\nThere's nobody named Hertzlinger in the United States (seen via Charles G. Hill).\n\u201cMore! More! I'm still not satisfied!\u201d\u2014Professor Tom Lehrer\nWhat if the environmentalists happen to be right, for once?\nIf there is a limit to the number of people on Earth, we can expect rents to rise. Higher rents usually go along with declining birth rates. (There is a problem with this analysis. If enough people underestimate the limit, they might not be surprised when rents start increasing even if that increase was due to political corruption.)\nEven if we look beyond Earth to the rest of the universe, population growth might have a subexponential limit. Rents might be enough to slow growth without stopping. If enough people are travelling close to the speed of light looking for cheaper neighborhoods, time dilation can slow population growth.\nEnvironmentalists have tried getting around similar arguments by inventing the theory of \u201covershoot.\u201d (This is partly due to the potato chip from Brazil phenomenon.) They have some empirical evidence that animal populations likely to overshoot, but we're plants.\nThe environmentalists need not be right. It might be possible to create \u201cbasement universes.\u201d There might even be technical fixes so innovative that we haven't even thought of their possibility.\nOmega 3 Fats vs. Omega 6 Fats\nAccording to a recent study, a high ratio of omega-6 fats (found in corn and soybean oil) to omega-3 fats (found in fish and walnut oil) in the diet can increase a propensity to violence. I'm sure there are people in Hamas or Hezbollah reading that research and resolving to use more corn oil in school lunchrooms.\nI'm reminded of an episode of My Favorite Martian in which the Martian started having hallucinations in response to eating food made with polyunsaturated fats.\nOn the other hand, not every study can be taken seriously.\nIt's an IQ Test\nIt should be obvious that this story is an IQ test designed to see if people will believe any load of organic fertilizer that looks like a scientific study.\nOn the other hand, the human race just might possibly split into two species: those who believe this nonsense and those who don't.\nAn Oddly-Named Food\nI recently saw cans of Spotted Dick on sale in the ethnic foods aisle at my local supermarket. I had thought it was a practical joke invented by British expatriates.\nDonald Knuth on Stratified Random Sampling\nIn Chapter 2 of Things a Computer Scientist Rarely Talks About, Knuth said about his use of stratified random sampling in Bible study:\nWe could have rolled dice. True randomization clearly leads to a better sample than the results of a fixed deterministic like chapter 3, verse 16. On the other hand, there is no reason to think there is anything unusual about chapter 3, verse 16 except in the Book of John. And I didn't like the idea of rolling dice, for several reasons. One reason was that we would have to roll the dice in advance if people were going to prepare for the class. But then if a person missed a class they wouldn't know what to do for next time. The other reason is that when you roll dice there's a temptation to cheat. You get a bad roll and you say, \u201cWell I didn't really mean that \u2026 the dice slipped, or bumped into the edge. Let's try again.\u201d Thus my 3:16 rule actually couldn't be rigged.\nAnother Body Count\nOne of the more plausible defenses of the Lancet study is that it used a far more accurate technique than the official statistics and it was the only study to have used such a technique in this case. On the contrary, there was similar study from the UN (seen via Confederate Yankee) that showed far fewer deaths than the earlier Lancet results. The UN results sound high but they're not extraordinary.\nMore Comments on That Lancet Study\nAn isolated study (the last similar report was from the same people) is never extraordinary evidence.\nAll the other complaints about this study are commentary on the first two. (In possibly-related news, a team of researchers have claimed that Israel is the least neurotic nation on Earth. Talk about extraordinary claims \u2026)\nMuch of the rhetoric defending the study resembles John Campbell editorials on J. B. Rhine. (The statistical techniques used are standard \u2026 The critics are merely expressing their prejudices \u2026 etc.). Maybe there could be a CSICOP-type organization to investigate similar possible bullbleep.\nShow Trials?\nParts of the environmental movement are proposing an odd way of dealing with disagreement:\nIt's about the climate-change \"denial industry,\" which most of you are probably familiar with. What you may not know about is the peculiar role of the tobacco industry in the whole mess. I've read about this stuff for years and even I was surprised by some of the details.\nWhen we've finally gotten serious about global warming, when the impacts are really hitting us and we're in a full worldwide scramble to minimize the damage, we should have war crimes trials for these bastards -- some sort of climate Nuremberg.\nIt resembles part of item 36 of the Crackpot Index:\nAn Effect of the Internet Gambling Ban?\nIt might just be coincidence that there has been a striking increase in the likelihood of a Democratic takeover of Congress according to the gamblers on TradeSports since Congress passed a law banning Internet gambling.\nA Note about That Lancet Study\nI'm sure that my fellow wingnuts have heard of another study by the same team that came up with improbable numbers of civilian casualties a few years ago. We can't consider this to be a scientific result.\nThe scientific method is not a matter of \u201cHas this been published in a really prestigious journal?\u201d (contrary to what some people appear to think); it's a matter of \u201cHas this been replicated?\u201d As far as I know, this hasn't been. If it were true, others would have seen the same phenomena by now.\nI don't know what the cause of the discrepancy is but I'd like to know how they hired the people who were supposedly taking the survey.\nEat Your View?\nWould the slogan \u201cEat your view\u201d (you should only eat food that was grown in places you can see from your residence) apply to inhabitants of orbital colonies?\nA Question about 30 Rock\nWas the character Jack based on Kelvin Throop?\nWhat's New York's Excuse?\nAccording to Robert Putnam, ethnic diversity makes people less gullible (seen via TJIC):\nA bleak picture of the corrosive effects of ethnic diversity has been revealed in research by Harvard University\u2019s Robert Putnam, one of the world\u2019s most influential political scientists.\nHis research shows that the more diverse a community is, the less likely its inhabitants are to trust anyone \u2013 from their next-door neighbour to the mayor.\nIn that case, shouldn't New Yorkers be more skeptical of liberalism?\nWhere Opposition to \u201cConscience Clauses\u201d Leads\nThere is a lawsuit to force a Jewish-owned medical clinic to open on Saturday.\nNorth Korea Apparently Exploded an Itsy-Bitsy, Teeny-Weeny Nuclear Bomb\nIt's a cute, adorable nuke.\nThe apparent size of the explosion (possibly as small as half a kiloton) is of the same order of magnitude as the energy content in the tanks of a fully-fueled 767. In other words, we've already been attacked with a couple of those things.\nAnother note: If this was a real bomb (and not a dud or a fake), it's of an appropriate size to be used in an Orion-style spaceship.\nA Suggestion for a Statistics Course in Fallacies\nYou could probably organize an entire course around the fallacies on this website (in particular, on AIDS and IQ).\nMore Evidence We Shouldn't Trust Petitions Signed by Scientists\nThey're now defending Intelligent Design by petition. (My earlier criticisms of scientific petitions can be found here and here.)\nFIW Works Both Ways\nA Muslim police officer in Britain, inspired by the principle of \u201cFreedom\u2014I Won't,\u201d is refusing to guard the Israeli embassy (seen via James Lileks):\nPC Alexander Omar Basha - a member of the Metropolitan Police's Diplomatic Protection Group - refused to be posted there because he objected to Israeli bombings in Lebanon and the resulting civilian casualties of fellow Muslims.\nI think he has every to right to be excused. Scotland Yard, in turn, has every right to be excused from paying his salary. For example, consider the following incident:\nHere in Minneapolis there\u2019s a controversy about Muslim cab drivers who refuse fares who are carrying alcohol. The airport, as I understand the story, is studying whether to implement special lights on the cabs that alert passengers to hooch-friendly or hooch-hostile cabs.\nSomehow, I doubt if the cabbies refusing to carry drunks are still insisting on their fares.\nI Don't Think Creationists Approve of This\nThe Darwin Information Typing Architecture might attract some opposition.\nOne problem is that it takes millions of years to debug anything.\nWordPerfect on Foley\nWordPerfect flagged \u201cFoley\u201d as a spelling error. It suggested, among other words, \u201cfool\u201d as a substitute.\nNot in the Right Line of Work\nOne of the people in the \u201cWe Had Abortions\u201d petition has a possibly-inappropriate job:\nAnother signatory, Debbie Findling of San Francisco, described her difficult decision last year to have an abortion after tests showed that she would bear a son with Down syndrome.\n\"I felt it was my right to make the decision, but having that right doesn't make the decision any easier,\" she said. \"It was the hardest decision I've ever made.\"\nFindling, 42, is married, with a 5-year-old daughter, and has been trying to get pregnant again while pursuing her career as a philanthropic foundation executive.\nI hope she's not involved in disability rights.\nAddendum: Her employer is even more wildly inappropriate.\nFirst, the Libertarians nomimated an anti-vaccination activist, Dawn Winkler, for governor of Colorado (seen via Orac). Now, I find that John Clifton, the Libertarian nominee for governor of New York, wants a state investigation of depleted uranium. (I discussed depleted uranium long ago.) The major fact mentioned in the more detailed link on the 12 Point Agenda page is that\nA Japanese professor, Dr. K. Yagasaki, has calculated that in terms of the atomicity, (the amount of radiation produced), a ton of DU used on the battlefield releases the equivalent of 100 Hiroshima bombs worth of radiation released into the atmosphere.\nI found the term \u201catomicity\u201d completely unfamiliar and was unsurprised when it turned out to be utter bullbleep. (It's supposed to be the number of radioactive atoms.)\nInteresting fact: The potassium-40 in the foods consumed by Americans has approximately the same \u201catomicity\u201d as half a ton of depleted uranium. On a second thought, that might be the start of the next set of investigations\u2026",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab What Your Life Costs\nSo here's what Ben suggests, which is your next assignment. A few years ago, he had us write down three things we want in each of the areas listed below. That was great for the over-achievers among us, the ones who already have good discipline, but it might have a been a bit overwhelming for those of us who weren't yet at his level. I'll include myself in this group. So what we're asking now is that you write down one thing in each of the following areas that you'd like to do better. I'll share mine as we go so you know I'm also doing the work.\nFamily: I'm going to sit with each of my children at least once a week and help them choose and design the kind of life they want.\nFaith: What I like to believe is that we are bigger than our politicians make out. My practice here is to publish at least one article every two weeks on issues of the day, and include a call to action so that we can help America's Greatness shine.\nHealth: I'm going to cut down on the coffee intake. We'll start with one coffee free day a week.\nHobby: I'm still liking the music; so I'll sit down at the piano at least three times a week. And weeks during which I'm driving a lot, I'll do at least a half hour of voice training in the car.\nWork: My big practice here is to say no. This for me is the hardest. I have so many things I like, so many things that interest me and that I am pretty good at. What I need to do is go deep in one, to turn it into money and create the systems around it so that it can function without me, or at least mostly without me, and only then move on to the next.\nThere are two ingredients necessary to succeed: time and money. So we'll start with time. This is what it takes:\nFamily: An hour a day.\nFaith: Ten minutes a day\nHealth: Thirty minutes, three times a week.\nHobby: Twenty minutes, three times a week.\nWork: Two to eight hours a day.\nIf you're off in one, the whole system will suffer. So if things are going wrong, you want to note what's not in place. If you can't seem to get it right in one area, don't double down on it; look at what's missing and get that back in place.\nAs to the money, we'll get to that in our next post.\nCompleting What Was\nIf you've been following me for a while, or even if you just scrolled back, you might have noticed I set up a bunch of goals at the beginning of 2016. In the spirit of completing that, I copy them here, and note my progress, and what I am already doing.:\n\u2713 Visit with three of my cousins: I took a trip with my oldest to Germany and accomplished this. We also got to see my uncle and aunt before they died. In addition, we've been to visit my parents twice.\nOuting with Sharleen once a week: Maybe every week was too ambitious, but we do get out to a landmark event usually twice a month. I count this as our date. We also take the time to stop and look at our goals and communicate.\nOuting with family at least once a month: This didn't happen. We did have a handful of excursions, but not at this frequency.\nWhat is already in place is that we eat as a family I'd guess at least four times a week. We also play a lot of games together, and communicate well.\n\u2713 Assist at Landmark: I did this.\nI also completed my measures on a goal I had set for myself there.\n\u2713 Altucher Podcasts: I have many virtual gurus now, and the hours I spend in the car are often spent listening to their podcasts.\n\u2713 Political Activism: I've upped my campaign by registering it and opening the bank account. I've podcasted inside it, and blogged more.\nPrayer: I already do this every morning; so I haven't listed it as a goal.\n200 lbs. (91 kg.): I've rowed a lot (more than two million meters in the last nine months alone), done some weight training and push-ups. As a consequence, my weight is not here, but I'm a bit more solid.\nSugar, smoke and Coffee free: I haven't smoked since March 2016; I've gotten much better about curbiing my sugar intake, but I'm not sugar free. Coffee intake might just have gone up.\nPolitics: I've made more efforts, but didn't set a solid measure; so I can't call it a win; but I am happy with where I am.\n10k a month: Have not hit this milestone yet.\nHelp five people build their business: I'm still working on the first.\nBuy three new pieces of Real Estate: Not.\nI've answered 4507 questions on Quora which have been viewed in total 798,400 times. I've also coached a handful of people. So I've touched a few lives along the way.\nPolitics: Covered above.\nFinish Alfred\u2019s Book 2, Guitar Book 1, Accordion Book 2, Mandolin 1: A no on all of these, though they all received a little attention.\nBuild our House: It's not built, but the foundation is, and it is in process.\nAnd I just want to add as I was completing this, that I got that I have done a lot more than my day to day self tends to admit.\nTags: 2018, Goals, Structure\nThis entry was posted by drherz and is filed under Structure, Success, Success.

So that they have not performed the official a part of that and, for example, people who do Social Security representation will find themselves talking to decrease-income folks, particularly women, who consider they have a typical law marriage but find their relationship will not be recognized.\nFor the chance that a putative marriage could have been created, see GN 00305.085B. It is possible different states will go in that direction if it impacts extra individuals. If a purported frequent-law marriage occurred earlier than 01/02/1968, and such marriage was not legitimate because of an obstacle, but such impediment was eliminated after 01/01/1968, then a common-law marriage didn\u2019t arise.\nThat gave the impression to be one of many major motivations to do away with it. And the courtroom additionally believed that individuals have ready access to ceremonial marriage. Because if you have a ceremonial marriage and you have that marriage certificates, that is a straightforward method to decide whether or not someone is married or not.\nA voidable marriage is a wedding that\u2019s faulty and can be judged void (annulled) however is considered legitimate except and until declared void as a result of court motion on its validity. A standard law marriage has to be dissolved by the courts just like every other marriage.\nFor the possibility that a putative marriage might have been created, see GN 00305.085D. However of course, a few of the early settlements right here \u2014 the early American states and colonies differed dramatically in whether or not they adopted frequent law marriage. Recognized from 03/07/1939 by 12/31/1963; a marriage license was required, however solemnization was not obligatory; nonetheless, there should have been a wedding contract.\nLegal Assist Society Of San Mateo County\nElder Law Attorney, Special Needs Planning, Asset Protection PA",

        "raw_content": "Prospect Profiles: Ty Lewis, Maksim Sushko & Ivan Kosorenkov\nThis week\u2019s prospects include Ty Lewis (Brandon Wheat Kings), Maksim Sushko (Owen Sound Attack) & Ivan Kosorenkov (Victoriaville Tigres).\nCourtesy of the Brandon Wheat Kings\nTy Lewis, LW, Brandon Wheat Kings, WHL\nBorn: March 5, 1998 \u2013 Brandon, Manitoba, Canada\nDraft: 2013 WHL Draft \u2013 Round #3 (47th overall) by the Brandon Wheat KingsTyLewis relishedin his role with the team this year, scoring 30 goals and 68 points in 70 games while Nolan Patrick was on the shelf much of the season. Has a very sneaky shot and a deceptive release. Strong on the forecheck and is a pest around the net. It takes home a few strides to get going but once he goes, he never stops going. Will skate through checks and not let defencemen get in his way. Is quick to jump on loose pucks in the crease and create a scoring chance. Quick instincts and always keeps his feet moving. Consistent on special teams as much of his offensive production has been on the power play. His five-on-five play needs some work if he wants to be a good all-around player.\nDID YOU KNOW? Lewis is another talented re-entry in this year's NHL Draft after an injury plagued draft season in 2015-16 and saw him dress in only 48 regular season games and post just 10 goals and 23 points (compared to his 30 goals and 68 points in 70 games played this past season). He had a regular shift in the Wheat Kings run to the WHL Championship, scoring two goals in 24 games that included the MasterCard Memorial Cup.\nTerry Wilson/OHL Images\nMaksim Sushko, RW, Owen Sound Attack, OHL\nBorn: February 10, 1999 \u2013 Brest, Belarus\nDraft: 2016 CHL Import Draft \u2013 Round #1 (29th overall) by the Owen Sound Attack\nMaksim Sushko surprised many with his standout rookie season in the OHL and provided strong secondary scoring depth with 17 goals and 32 points in 54 games. Has tremendous vision on the ice and thinks the game at the NHL level. Strong along the perimeter and gets into good position on the power play. Quick, crisp passes on the tape and likes to get involved in the offensive attack. Strong on the puck pursuit and has good speed fighting for every inch of ice he can get. Tends to drift out of the play when the puck is in the defensive zone and needs to work on his two-way game and stay engaged in the play every second he is on the ice. It still remains unseen if he will turn into a true sniper and a dynamic playmaker.\nDID YOU KNOW? Sushko put up nine goals and 30 points in 21 games for Shakhter Soligorsk-2 of the Belarus-2 League, adding three goals and 13 points in the postseason and leading his team to the league Championship. He is also a 2016 first round draft pick (11th overall) of Dynamo Minsk in the KHL.\nIvan Kosorenkov, RW, Victoriaville Tigres, QMJHL\nBorn: January 22, 1998 \u2013 Nizhnekamsk, Russia\nDraft: 2016 CHL Import Draft \u2013 Round #1 (24th overall) by the Victoriaville Tigres\nUndersized but competitive Russian winger Ivan Kosorenkov flew under the radar most of the season and turned in an impressive finish to his rookie season by scoring 34 goals and 63 points in 68 games. Was considered a passenger much of the first half of the season but turned it on in the second half and really impressed with his ability to take over the game. At times he needs to not try to do it all by himself and use his linemates more but really started to pick up on his own mistakes and worked real hard to improve. Quick feet down low and creates space for himself effectively. Always in the right place at the right time and scored 25 power play points and six game winners. Showed much more consistency and his ability to take over the ice during the postseason, scoring two goals and four points but falling to Chicoutimi in 4 games.\nDID YOU KNOW? Spent the 2015-16 season playing for MHK Spartak Moskva in the MHL, scoring five goals and seven points in 11 games. He also scored 13 goals and 20 points playing for the U18 Russian team in the MHL. Took part in the U19 World Jr. A Challenge for Russia scoring 2 goals in 4 games.",

        "raw_content": "How BetOnline Got Started - Full History\nBetOnline is a gambling site dating back to a bookmaking business started in Rochester, New York in 1991. When it was moved to Costa Rica in December of 2000, the first office wasn't much larger than a closet. Despite its humbling begins, they went on to find the right partners and investments, assemble an all-star cast, and grow into one the largest gambling sites in the world. This is an account of their history.\nRochester New York Days to BestLineSports\nOriginally, the company started with a man best known as Joe Junior who was booking bets from Rochester, New York in 1991. While this was illegal, it was only so due to corporate interests. America started with wagering on casino games, horse racing, cockfighting, and bare-knuckle fights. It wasn't until professional sports began that an anti-gambling lobby got underway. Federal laws against bookmaking were introduced in the 60's, 70's, and 90's; these laws made the profession of Joe Junior a crime.\nDon't get me wrong, Joe Junior was no stranger to crime. His father was Joseph Fafone, a Gambino crime family associate known by the nickname \"Boca Joe.\" The man was first arrested in 1971 for selling $200,000 worth of counterfeit $20 bills. A decade ago, he hooked-up with a former mafia henchman who had recently been released from prison; on their own, they got involved in several cocaine deals which landed him there again. As for Joe Junior, the only crime I've ever heard him involved with was bookmaking and cleaning the money. In other words, he was just an honest businessman who ran books.\nGetting back on track, the Rochester, New York bookmaking operation was rather small with only a handful of agents and money collectors. Despite this, Joe Junior had his door busted down by police a few times, and was charged twice. Tired of US law enforcement, he eventually moved to Costa Rica where he rented a tiny office. From here, his first online sportsbook was started in February, 2001 using the URL bestlinesports.com.\nThere Were Other BetOnlines\nThe current BetOnline.com claims their history dates back to 1991. Even though Joe Junior is no longer with the company, what we've uncovered so far is their alleged start. From February, 2001 through March, 2007 the current site was known as BestLineSports.com, the dates they affirm. Before they became BetOnline, there were two other companies using the same name.\nThe first was launched July, 8, 1998 as a partnership between the UK's Mirror Group and Press Association. Initially it was located on the sub-domain, betonline.sporting-life.com, before using the URL betonline.co.uk in September of 1998. (This original BetOnline appears to date back to the UK betting site now known as BlueSquare and has nothing to do with company under discussion.) The other BetOnline actually used the domain name betonline.com. This same group now owns 7redsports.com and ezstreetsports.com. We will come back later to explain how BestLineSports.com ended up becoming betonline.com. For now, take note that neither of these other BetOnlines forms any part of the BetOnline.com of today, nor have they ever been.\nJoe Junior Takes on Partners\nWhile BetOnline started as Joe Junior's bookmaking business, it grew into a huge operation with multiple partners. Initially there was another US bookie who signed on in Costa Rica using the pseudonym John Magnum. Over the years, this man has had more names than we can count and even later served as the CEO of BetOnline under another name.\nJohn Magnum, as we'll call him, has never been indicted by US authorities, hence let's stick to this name. Without saying too much, in 1996 while at the age of 25, he started one the first offshore sportsbooks targeting the US. His claim to fame was personal touch. In the early days, no client could open a betting account at his company without speaking to him personally. He brought Joe Junior a massive list of clients, and they soon relocated the business into the newly-built San Pedro Mall. Later BestLineSports.com hooked up with a group of investors that included another American with the initials E.D. This group moved BestLineSports.com to Panama in May of 2004.\nThe change to BetOnline.com came about, in part, as a result of BetonSports.com going out of business on August 11, 2006. One of the largest sportsbooks servicing the US, it closed due to federal indictments by US authorities and bankruptcy. Yet another American, Dalton Wagner, was left without a home at BetOnSports' closing. He soon joined the company, presumably as a partner/investor (although this hasn't been confirmed).\nWhat Dalton Wagner brought to the table were connections to the BetOnSports staff, marketing department, and a massive list of clients and agents. He, himself, had met the founders of BetMaker, Scott Barrett and Mike Hale, in a poker game in 1998. They had come to Costa Rica with just six credit cards and had sold their sportsbook for $20 million while wealthy and debt-free. Impressed with their story, Wagner moved to Costa Rica and started MVP Sportsbook.\nThere was no other association than the same software provider, MVP, and it functioned and looked very similar to today's 5dimes.com minus the reduced juice. He would end up selling this and his other sportsbooks to BetOnSports.com while signing on to manage them independently. When the company closed, he brought his client lists and agent pay-per-head business to the BetOnline team, and a slew of non-ownership BetOnSports staff followed.\nJoe Junior Leaves the Company\nSkipping ahead in the story of BetOnline's history, Joe Junior is no longer with the site. He was arrested at the Rochester International Airport in October of 2009, the result of an indictment that saw some 30 bookmakers, agents, and runners of the pay-per-head side named.\nThere was a 38-month-long investigation the authorities called \"Operation Betting It All,\" described as $20 million dollar per month bookmaking operation linked to both the Gambino and Genovese crime families. The silly thing is that authorities investigated for 38-months and rarely got it right.\nBetOnline had a pay-per-head side; and anyone, no matter who they were, could access the software for a fee. No doubt they got a bookie when nabbing Joe Junior, but the mafia ties were quite weak. Anytime a PPH provider is busted, there's no doubt some crime family is a client. The media loves a good Martin Scorsese film.\nOpinion aside, it's important to note that at the time BestLineSports.com became BetOnline, Joe Junior was one of many partners. While he got the company started, much of the remaining history barely includes his role. Furthermore, after the Operation Betting It All arrests in 2009, all indicted partners, including Joe Junior, were bought out. They aren't involved with the current BetOnline in any way shape or form. Let's rewind the story to late 2006.\nUIGEA and BetOnline Domain Purchase\nAs mentioned in the intro, the company started offshore working from a closest and grew into one the largest gambling sites in the business. Forming an all-star cast (alluded to above) was instrumental. They also became aggressive when others in the industry were erring on the side of caution.\nThe first aggressive move BestLineSports.com made was amidst the stormy waters following the United States passing the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA). This law which, signed by President George W. Bush on October 13, 2006, made it a serious crime to have any involvement with the money flow to and from illegal gambling sites. UIGEA literally resulted in the closure of hundreds of gambling sites to the US market out of fear. Seeing an opportunity, the BestLineSports group purchased the highly-desirable domain name BetOnline.com. The company that had been previously using it was struggling financially as result of UIGEA and had just cleansed it by moving their players to a new domain.\nIn April of 2007, BestLineSports.com closed, and all accounts were moved to BetOnline.com. Their all-star cast of partners comprised of affiliate gurus, marketing gurus, pay-per-head experts, and agents with payment connections put pedal to the medal. Almost immediately after becoming BetOnline, they began advertising on every relevant gambling site known to man, including SBR, the RX, Covers, G911, and EOG. They also inaugurated an affiliate program offering $150 no-clear, no-minimum deposit CPAs. Of course they also opened a pay-per-head division led by Dalton Wager that brought new agents on board.\nBetOnline took a risk that most sportsbooks didn't have the expertise or tolerance to handle. They began offering clients who desired it 105 reduced juice, while also setting some of the highest betting limits in the industry. From here, they focused on adding a ton of new markets such as football propositions and alternate lines. They even attempted to open the betting lines before Bookmaker/BetCRIS. As you can learn in our article on Bookmaker.eu history, this was a sick move. This company for years had used the slogan \"where the line originates,\" and it was far more than marketing hype.\nIn the long run, BetOnline aggressively did everything right, taking huge risks, and even continuing after the April/May 2011 domain seizures of US gambling sites. In what has been called Black Friday, on April 15, 2011, domains of the largest poker sites: PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker, Ultimate Bet, and Absolute Poker were seized as were several of their bank accounts and owners, key staff, and payment processors. The companies were indicted by US authorities, and of the four poker sites, only PokerStars.com settled while the other three closed. In May of 2011, ten sportsbooks had their domains seized.\nOut of fear, many more gambling sites to the US market closed. Several of those who tried to stick it out went bankrupt. What did BetOnline do? The same thing they did after UIGEA. They rushed out and hired a high-profile CEO, the woman to whom Brett Favre allegedly texted penis shots to named Jenn Sterger, to act as their spokesperson. They also hired the existing head of the sportsbook.com affiliate team and another long-time affiliate manager Simon Eaton, who had worked with VIP Profits back in the day. Of course, they added poker to their website and ramped up their affiliate program. The later included sexy \"we love US players\" banners and increased commission rates for established affiliates.\nIn short, BetOnline went from a tiny bookmaking business in Rochester, New York to a closet-like office in Costa Rica to the massive company in existence today. They assembled a great cast of partners and made all the right moves, going all in while others went scared. Has this proven to be a success? There's no company today with better exposure on affiliate portals or Google search results than BetOnline. In May of 2012, they purchased one of the oldest sportsbooks in the business: Sportsbetting.com. This came a month after they purchased Bet Eagle, the leader in pay-per-head operations. No doubt BetOnline is one the largest companies in the business, having a great track record with players. To test them out, visit their new website located at www.betonline.ag.",

        "raw_content": "An Honest Look at BetDSI\nUp to $500 Welcome Bonuses\nClearly Stated Cashout Terms\nI have been a part of the online betting industry for a very long time. Sometimes, I think to myself what would have happened if I had chosen another career path, but alas here I am, one of the experts in the field. I know a lot about what went down in the early days of the industry, and sometimes during my time as a site reviewer, a name comes across my desk which invokes memories of the old days. This was the case when I was given the task of reviewing BetDSI. This is a group that has been around since the inception of the industry, which has had its ups and downs along the way.\nWhile I may have a long history with this company, my job is to look at the site as it stands today. First, I went to many player forum sites and found that the company seems to have its fair share of issues form players. Now, I always like to take these with a grain of salt, and for the purposes of this review, I will be looking at the product itself, then taking into account what people are saying about the company on these sites. Let's see what BetDSI has for players today and if it worth your time.\nI love the layout of this site, and I think the best part about the whole thing is the dedication to updating the site as the company moved into a new world. The navigation around the games and the lines are excellent, and the fact that they give bettors a chance to use the old look and feel of the betting pages is a bonus for those who prefer the old way of betting.\nI want to give the support department a higher score, given that they are using social media as part of their customer service area. You can contact the company in many different ways, but the reason the site doesn't get a higher mark is that there are lingering questions about some of the issues players talk about on the player forums.\nI love the promotional section of this site. Above and beyond the standard bonuses for deposits, there is a full loyalty program which gives you a chance to get cash back by earning loyalty points when you bet. Also, there are a lot of free contests for players to try, which give you a chance to win some money without putting any up! All this adds up to an excellent marketing arm of the company that should keep all my readers engaged with this brand.\nThis is about the highest score I can give a site that doesn't have a native app for iOS or Android. Of course, BetDSI isn't allowed to have a native app, as Apple and Google don't allow them in the U.S. The mobile site is just fine, and if you are on a decent connection then you should be able to make your bets without any issues.\nAll of the major sports are covered at BetDSI, as are all the bet types you could ever want from a sportsbook. I'd like to see a few more casino games, and the lack of poker is a real bummer for someone like me who likes to have as few accounts as possible. However, if you don't care about that, then you should be just fine with what is offered at his site.\nI give the site a high mark for the fact that they are telling you how slow your payment will be. A site based in Costa Rica doesn't have a lot of options when it comes to sending you your money. So, let's just hope you get paid! If it were me, I would be choosing a cryptocurrency for my payments - yes, they are volatile in value, but it is far and away the fastest way to get your money from BetDSI, and you can convert it to cash as soon as you get it into your crypto wallet.\nAbout the Site and Who Can Play?\nAs I mentioned, this site has a long history in the gaming industry. The site originally launched in 1998, and while I can't tell if it is the same guys running the site, I am sure there is still a connection to those guys in one way or another. What I do know is that the site is clearly tailored for the American betting market, which is no different than when it originally launched. I have to assume that players from around the world can play here, but it's difficult to tell from the website itself.\nAs for the website itself, I am very pleased to see that the design has had a refresh, and looks much more like a modern website. This can be a bit of an issue in the sports betting world, as many operators have not taken design into consideration. These days, players are spending more time online researching their bets, so having a site that doesn't make you feel like it is 1999 goes a long way to keeping a player sticky through the process.\nCreating an account was no different than many other sites. I simply added some information about myself to a registration form on the website, and within a couple of minutes, I had an account that was all set up for me to start betting!\nThere is a lot to like at BetDSI. However, I think what I like the most are all the contests that the site offers. These promotions, some of which cost money and others are free, allow you to be involved in betting without having to just bet on the games. Handicapping contests, pick the winners events, and bracket challenges are the norm here, and I think they are a great way to engage with the sportsbook on a more regular basis. I highly recommend them to my readers.\nWhat I Liked the Least\nI suppose what I don't like is a common complaint - they seem to be less than forthcoming about pending withdrawals. Many of the complaints I read on sites are about this topic, so I want the company to be more honest about the delays in payment. Also, I noticed that if you are a winning player, then they strip away the loyalty points you can earn, which is also total trash in my opinion. N the long run everyone loses, so the management team at BetDSI shouldn't be offending players with these types of Terms and Conditions.\nWith my account created and funded, the next logical step is to check out the lines in the sportsbook and test the wagering interface. Here is where I found a very nice feature about BetDSI. This site has been around for a long time, and during that time the way people interact with abetting site has changed. However, there are many long-time players that don't like the enhancements, preferring to play the old school way. For these players, there is something called the Retro Sportsbook. By clicking on this link, you are taken back to the old way of betting - window after window of filtering to get to the betting lines and then clicking on buttons to make your wagers. This is pretty cool in a nostalgic way, and I like that BetDSI cares about their original players.\nThe more modern look and feel are also available, and making abet here is just as simple as at other sites. Simply click on a sport, and the lines pop up. With each selection, your betting slip on the right side of the screen is filled, and then you simply add in the bet amounts and all your tickets are processed. I was able to make several bets in a matter of seconds (which may not have been a wise decision based on the outcomes haha). Players will find this interface very intuitive, and this means far less stress when picking the winners of your bets.\nThere are tons of sports to bet on at BetDSI, but there is a decidedly North American theme to the site. Here is a sample of what you can bet on here:\nThe site dedicates an entire tab to eSports betting, which is another sign that they are continuing to evolve as a business into the future. While I don't bet on it myself, I know a lot of younger players who are transfixed by the competitive video game world, and it will continue to grow for years to come.\nThe sportsbooks that have been around for 20 years or so tend to have added casinos as a formality, deciding to focus on the quality of the sports betting package rather than attracting players who are really there more for playing slots or table games. That isn't to say that BetDSI doesn't care about casino players - it just means that they are spending as much time curating that part of their site.\nHere's something I love about this site though - they offer you two different casinos to play in. One is called the Diamond Casino (which I focused on for this review), and the other is called the Rebate Casino. I assume the rebate casino is where you get a percentage back in cash of your losses, but since I was focused on winning, I just left that one alone!!\nBoth of these casinos can be played without having to download any software, as you just connect through your browser. Each of the casinos offers you a chance to play slots and table games form your mobile device through the mobile browser as well, which means you can have a screen open playing blackjack while you are watching your favorite sporting event.\nWhile neither casino has a huge selection of games, there are definitely enough to keep you occupied. Here are some of my thoughts on the Diamond Casino.\nI would say that I am the perfect example of a casino player in a sportsbook. I am not much of a slots player (I will play some of the big progressives when I see them), preferring to sit at Table Games if given a chance. I decided to stick to that while testing the Diamond Casino, so I started with a little Blackjack session. The game is excellent - speeds are right up there with any casino I have tried, and the quality of the graphics is very good as well. I like that there are multiple types of Blackjack to play to go along with all the other table games -here is a sample of what you will see:\n21 Burn Black Jack\nI did give the slots a little bit of my time (and money) just to see what they were like as I didn't recognize the brand. They are pretty simple in design, but they do get the job done. For me, all I want is a game that plays quickly and has an excellent payout percentage, both of which are covered by these games. While there are no huge jackpots to win, if you just want to kill some time then you will find these titles interesting:\nRollin Trolls\nArabian Wishes\nThe Family JP\nFinally, I did get around to spending some time with my favorite - the video poker machines. If you ask any of my friends, when we go to Vegas I always tend to disappear for a couple hours until someone finds me at a video poker game pounding away at the buttons. I like that there is some decision making in this game, but that it is also very fast to play. There are a good number of titles at BetDSI, many of which are available in multi-hand and pyramid formats:\nOverall, I was happy with the casino games at Diamond casino - for a sportsbook casino it is very well put together and worth giving a try.\nDoes the Site Offer Anything Else?\nThere is no poker site at BetDSI, and this is a bit shocking to me. Poker is the perfect add-on for sports bettors and keeps players around for a long period of time. With the eas of getting a poker skin, I suspect it may be something this operator adds at some point, but for the time being it isn't available.\nThere is a full racebook available at BetDSI. Although it is a dying sport, there are still a group of very intense horse racing bettors (just walk into any OTB, and you will see what I mean). You can bet on all the big tracks and races at this site, which should satisfy just about everyone's needs who reads this review.\nWhat are the Options for Payments?\nThere are multiple options for both deposits and withdrawals, but if I am being honest, they are limited in scope. The reason for this is that e-wallet solutions won't touch sites that accept American players. So, the easiest way to get your money to this site is via a credit card. The maximum deposit is $1,500 though, so if you want o make a larger deposit, then you will need to use another method. You can use person to person transfers of bank wires if you wish.\nThe site does offer multiple cryptocurrency options for deposits and withdrawals. These are the fastest to make, and if you don't have a digital wallet, those are pretty easy to find and create these days. Don't be intimidated by the process of buying and depositing crypto, but you should be watching the value of the coins as they are still pretty volatile. I never recommend my readers hold too much of any of them.\nFrom a withdrawal perspective, I really like that the company is upfront about each of the options. The limits, fees, and timing of each of the available withdrawal methods can be found in the cashier section of the website, and this is a refreshing approach to managing this part of the company.[ Typically, I have to chase down information on how long it will take to get paid, so having this spelled out for me gives me a sense of confidence, despite what I have read from player forums.\nWhat is the Welcome Bonus?\nWell, this is pretty straightforward. If you look on the BetDSI site, there is a Welcome Bonus available to players planning to deposit for the first time. The level of detail of this bonus matches a sports betting site that has been around for 20 years - no screwing around.\nOk, maybe a little screwing around.\nThe Welcome Bonus is a \"100%\" Deposit Bonus up to $500. However, you get half that bonus to use in the sportsbook and the other half in the casino. Still, that is a nice way to check out both sections of the site, and I appreciate that the offer is relatively simple to understand.\nVIP Program?\nWhat's this? A sportsbook with a loyalty program that is tiered AND they give you some information about it? I have to admit, I wasn't ready for this one.

        "raw_content": "Not only is the Burj Khalifa the tallest building in the world, it has a \"record setting\" fountain. I couldn't quite figure out what specifically is record setting about it. It can shoot 22,000 gallons of water into the air at once and it was designed by the same firm that created the fountain at the Bellagio but is much much bigger.\nIt plays every half an hour after dusk and rotates through a play list of about 30 different songs and the water is all choreographed to match the music. Hundreds of people line up to watch. I love this photo of these fellows watching the fountains. They are most likely Saudi based on their dress, but they could be Emirati as well.\nHere's a little video of it I found on You Tube. The building on the far left is the mall where we were sitting in an outdoor cafe and where I took all my pictures from. The small mall where we were connects by bridge to the Dubai Mall (where this video was shot from), which is truly gigantic and overwhelming.\nLights run up and down the Burj in synchronicity with the music.\nI think it is very dramatic looking with the clouds behind it; it almost looks fake.\nThursday we are going up the observation deck, 120 stories up.\nNow I have to go because we are planning out the rest of the week. My dad just got here yesterday so there are 3 of us all with interests we are trying to balance out. Desert Safari or roof top dinner? Fabric shopping or spice souk? Hopefully we can juggle all of them successfully.",

        "raw_content": "The New Patriarch of Venice\nCardinal Bagnasco (left) and Bishop Moraglia (right)\nIt has been announced that Bishop Moraglia of the Ligurian see of La Spezia-Sarzana-Brugnato has been appointed to be the next Patriarch of Venice to replace Cardinal Scola. He is a very quiet unassuming but hard working Bishop During his four years as Bishop of La Spezia, Bishop Moraglia has presided over a rise in seminary numbers and championed devotional practices like perpetual Eucharistic adoration.\nCecil Collins 1908-1989\nThe Sleeping Fool\nsupport: 298 x 400 mm frame: 435 x 534 x 70 mm\nFool with a Flower 1944\nThe Joy of the Fool\nThe Fool: A Head\nChristchurch Mansion, Ipswich, Suffolk\nCecil Collins 1908-1989, the British artist, was highlighted by The Rt Revd Lord Harries in his Gresham Lecture entitled Christian Faith and Modern Art: Distinctive Individual Visions\nThe Fool is a recurring image in Collins` work It is an innocent figure that, although having no place in modern society, has the vision which is necessary to find fulfilment and eventual reward.\nIn his essay The Vision of the Fool (1947), Collins wrote that the Fool was the \"\u2018Saint, the artist, the poet\u2019.\nHe said that \"\u2018modern society has succeeded very well in rendering poetic imagination, Art, and Religion, the three magical representatives of life, an heresy; and the living symbol of that heresy is the Fool. The Fool is the poetic imagination of life, as inexplicable as the essence of life itself\u2019\nHe went on :\n\"'The saint, the artist, and the poet are all one in the Fool, in him they live, in him the poetic imagination of life lives.\"\n\u201cThe Fool is the poetic imagination of life, as inexplicable as the essence of life itself. This poetic life, born in all human beings, lives in them while they are children, but it is killed in them when they grow up by the abstract mechanization of contemporary society.\u201d\nAs Lord Herries pointed out:\n\"Not surprisingly Collins was drawn to the teaching of Jesus that to enter the Kingdom of Heaven we must become as little children with their openness and capacity for simple wonder at the world around us\"\nThe idea of The Holy Fool is an ancient one in the history of Christianity. But in the old concept perhaps the idea of humility is paramount. As well as a desire to see reality and not artifice. And not forgetting humour and joy.\nIn The Imperial Church (300-451), The Beginnings of Monasticism in Diarmaid MacCulloch Christianity :The First Three Thousand Years page 150 we read:\n\"One Syrian word for monk is abila, 'mourner'.\nOne of the many Christian spiritual writers who sought to borrow respectability for his works by placing them under the name of the much-honoured Ephrem the Syrian maintained that Jesus had cried but never laughed, and so 'laughter is the beginning of the destruction of the soul'.\nNevertheless, it was in this same Syrian setting in the fifth century that there evolved a particular form of sacred self-ridicule or critique of society's conventions: the tradition of the Holy Fool.\nIt was a specialized form of denying the world. Behind its Syrian origins lurked a Greek archetype from before the coming of Christianity: Diogenes of Sinope\nThe first well-known reviver of Diogenes's deliberate attempt to flout all convention was Simeon, who came to be known in Syrian as Salus ('foolish'). Simeon outdid Diogenes in active rudeness: when he arrived in the city of Emesa (now Homs in Syria), he dragged a dead dog around, threw nuts at women during church services and gleefully rushed naked into the women's section of the city bathhouse ('as if for the glory of God', his biographer optimistically commented).\nNot unnaturally he caused considerable offence, then somewhat illogically himself took offence at a group of girls who mocked him, miraculously leaving a number of them permanently cross-eyed.\nHis affectionate chronicler a century later was Leontius, a Cypriot bishop. Bishops are not normally associated with antisocial behaviour; perhaps Leontius was writing in the same satirical spirit as Dean Swift. Certainly Diogenes 'the dog' lurked in some of Leontius's literary allusions - not least in the dead dog hanging from Simeon's belt\nThe Holy Fool was destined to have a long history in the Orthodox tradition (although for some reason the Serbs never took to him). His extrovert craziness is an interesting counterpoint or safety valve to the ethos of prayerful silence and traditional solemnity which is so much part of Orthodox identity. Not all Orthodox theologians have been very comfortable with that contrast. 45\n(Footnote 45 See D. Krueger, Symeon the Holy Fool: Leontius's Life and the Late Antique City (Berkeley and London, 1996), esp. 41, 43-4, 90-103. See also A. Ivanov, Holy Fools in Byzantium and Beyond (Oxford, 2006), esp. on Orthodox disapproval, at 2, and on Simeon in the bathhouse, at 115, and on Serbian silence, at 252-3.)\nAnd we should not forget the great joker: Saint Philip Neri (July 21, 1515 \u2013 May 25, 1595)\nReligion and Modern Art\nAs seen in nave of Llandaff Cathedral, Llandaff, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales\nOf this sculpture, Epstein said that the figure expresses\n\" a humility so profound as to shame the beholder who comes to my sculpture expecting rhetoric or splendour of gesture\"\nJacob and the Angel 1940-1\n2140 x 1100 x 920 mm, 2500 kg\nThe Tate, Liverpool\nThe third and final cast of 'Angel Torso'.\nThe Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea\nProfessor the Rt Revd Lord Harries was the Bishop of Oxford from 1987 to 2006. He was previously the Dean of King's College London, where he is now a Fellow and an Honorary Professor of Theology\nHe is the current Gresham Professor of Divinity\nHe is currently in the middle of a series of lectures at Gresham College on the theme of Religion and Art\nThe lectures are available as video, audio podcast, word transcript and powerpoint presentation.\nOne of the most important of his lectures was entitled \"The Explosion of Modernism\" which considered the work of Nolde, Jacob Epstein and Roualt.\nBut one aspect which he does not hesitate to discuss is the composing of religious works of Christian themes by Jewish artists. Nowadays of course it is not regarded as a problem. But it was not always so.\nSir Jacob Epstein (1880-1959) and Chagall (1887-1985) are the two most prominent examples.\nEpstein is discussed in \"The Explosion of Modernism\" and Chagall is discussed in \"Distinctive Individual Visions\"\nAs regards Epstein, Lord Herries said:\n\"People were puzzled that Epstein, a Jew, should depict so many major Christian themes.\nSo something about his religion, first of all his Judaism. Brought up in a very Jewish Quarter of New York, a bit of Polish Jewry simply transplanted there, his father was a leading member and benefactor of the synagogue. In his household there were daily prayers, bible readings and Hebrew lessons. On the Sabbath the young Jacob had to spend most of the day in synagogue\nHe duly went through his Bar Mitzvah. He found all this stifling, and distanced himself from it as soon as he could.\nHowever, it gave him a deep knowledge and love of the Bible, and a sense of the sheer power of the Biblical stories, as for example we see in sculptures such as Adam, and Jacob wrestling with the angel.\nWhilst in New York he was as it were taken up by people in a settlement there. This settlement was no doubt very like such institutions founded by educated people in England at the time, usually with a strong Christian motivation, to enhance the lives and open up wider opportunities of those living in the slums of some of big cities.\nEpstein found that this wider world liberated him from the stifling confines of the Jewish ghetto, and introduced him not only to Christians who were an influence on him but Yiddish intellectuals who had similarly thrown off their religious upbringing. In particular a Mrs Moore befriended him and believed in him when he had lost faith in himself. ...\nCoventry Cathedral was almost totally destroyed by bombing in 1940 and in the early 1950\u2019s Basil Spence was commissioned as the architect for the building of a new Cathedral. He invited Graham Sutherland, John Piper and Elizabeth Frink to do work for it. He also wanted Epstein and in 1954 took Bishop Gorton to look at the Madonna and Child in Cavendish Square.\nThe bishop stood looking up at it, oblivious of the traffic and said simply \u201cEpstein\u2019s the man for us.\u201d\nLater when Epstein\u2019s name was brought before the committee Basil Spence noted \u201cThere was a shocked silence, at length broken by the remark, \u2018But is he a Jew\u2019, to which I replied quietly, \u2018So was Jesus Christ\u2019\u201d\nAt this meeting Epstein was asked about his faith, to which he responded by saying it could be seen in his work. In a radio broadcast he enlarged on this.\nMy tendency has always been religious-it may not be known, but that is a fact\u2026most great sculpture is occasioned by faith. Even the African sculpture, which we don\u2019t understand, is full of their faith.\nSo Epstein was an innately religious person whose upbringing on the Hebrew scriptures had gone deep. The other fact, in addition to the friendly encouragement by Mrs Moore and others at the settlement in New York was his life long friendship with some Christian intellectuals and clergy.\nHe and Eliot became friends and Eliot was amongst a small group invited to Epsteins 70th birthday party and the one who lit the candles on the cake. When Epstein died Eliot wrote to his widow to say\n\u201cIt is as if some of my world has crumbled away.We loved him\".\nEpstein was buried at Putney Vale cemetry, with Dr Hewlett Johnson, the Red Dean of Canterbury taking the service. A memorial service was held at St Paul\u2019s Cathedral, at which his friend Canon Mortlock said\nIf we ask how it was that a boy born and bred in the Jewish faith and never embracing any other, should become the interpreter of the sublime mysteries of our religion there can be no clear answer. Such things belong to the inscrutable wisdom of God.\nSilence and the Word\nLe Christ du silence\nCharcoal and pastel on canvas and brown paper\nChrist is the Word. The Word seems at the opposite end of the spectrum to Silence.\nSilence and the Word was the theme of Pope Benedict`s Message for Communications Day :\n\"When word and silence become mutually exclusive, communication breaks down, either because it gives rise to confusion or because, on the contrary, it creates an atmosphere of coldness; when they complement one another, however, communication acquires value and meaning.\"\nAbbaye de Fontfroide, Corbi\u00e8res, near Narbonne\nDuring the 1890s Redon responded to the Catholic revival that emerged in France during the previous decade and remained a powerful force in the nation's cultural life until the First World War\nRedon had many close friends who figured in the Catholic revival such as Paul Claudel and the painters Emile Bernard and Maurice Denis on the one hand and the writers Leon Bloy and J.K. Huysmans on the other. All were admirers of Redon's work\nBy 1900, Odilon Redon had entirely abandoned the confines of his monochromatic Noirs, the macabre and enigmatic charcoals and graphic albums which had dominated the majority of his career.\nAs Klaus Berger observed, 'The demons have retired' (in Odilon Redon, New York, 1965, p. 88).\nRedon never placed limits on the interpretation or meaning of the symbols he employed but rather believed that a subject should never restrict one's freedom of expression or interpretation.\nFontfroide was a Cistercian abbey near Narbonne founded in the eleventh century. It was abandoned in 1901. It was acquired by Gustave Fayet (1865-1925), a French painter and friend of Redon.\nFayet asked Redon to produce decoration for the library. The result was and is a masterpiece. Le Silence is one of the works in the library.\nSilence was a major theme in the work of Redon.\nThe work, Le Silence, invites calm and serenity, two attributes associated with an abbey and a library. The Word and words.\nBut in his Message the Pope provided a learned disquisition on the importance of Silence:\n\"Silence is an integral element of communication; in its absence, words rich in content cannot exist.\nIn silence, we are better able to listen to and understand ourselves; ideas come to birth and acquire depth; we understand with greater clarity what it is we want to say and what we expect from others; and we choose how to express ourselves.\nIt is often in silence, for example, that we observe the most authentic communication taking place between people who are in love: gestures, facial expressions and body language are signs by which they reveal themselves to each other.\nJoy, anxiety, and suffering can all be communicated in silence \u2013 indeed it provides them with a particularly powerful mode of expression.\nSilence, then, gives rise to even more active communication, requiring sensitivity and a capacity to listen that often makes manifest the true measure and nature of the relationships involved.\nWhen messages and information are plentiful, silence becomes essential if we are to distinguish what is important from what is insignificant or secondary.\nDeeper reflection helps us to discover the links between events that at first sight seem unconnected, to make evaluations, to analyze messages; this makes it possible to share thoughtful and relevant opinions, giving rise to an authentic body of shared knowledge.\nFor this to happen, it is necessary to develop an appropriate environment, a kind of \u2018eco-system\u2019 that maintains a just equilibrium between silence, words, images and sounds.\"\nThe silence of Christ can often be a test as it was for the Woman of Canaan, a test of faith:\n\"21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.\n24 He answered, \u201cI was only sent to the lost sheep of Israel.\u201d\n28 Then Jesus answered, \u201cWoman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.\u201d And her daughter was healed from that very hour.\"\nIt can also be the reaction when we attempt to put God to the test as in the narrative of the woman taken in adultery:\n\"1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.\n6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.\"\n(John 8: 1- 6)\nIn the Passion the silence of Christ is remarkable:\n\"The high priests brought many charges against him\nPilatus again questioned him, saying,\n\"Have you no answers? Look how much you are accused of.\"\nBut Jesus still said nothing.\nPilatus was amazed.\"\n(Mark 15:3-5)\nThen there is another different type of silence when Christ is not present: the silence of The Silence of Holy Saturday, the silence of the tomb\nThe Prayer of the Eucharist\nPrima messa di San Giovanni de Matha,\nThe First Mass of St John of Matha\nBasilica di San Crisogono, Rome\nThe distinguished Italian artist and art historian Rodolfo Papa now has his own website on Religious art. The blog is simply entitled Rodolfo Papa\nHe is also Professor of the History of Aesthetic Theory in the Faculty of Philosophy at the Pontifical Urban University, Rome,\nMany basilicas in Italy have his works including Sulmona. His writings (in Italian only) appear very frequently in the Italian edition of Zenit.\nIf one wants to know about religious art, look no further\nSaint John of Matha (1154 - 1213) was the co-founder of the Order of the Most Holy Trinity (\"The Trinitarians\"). The Trinitarians` Church in Rome is The Basilica di San Crisogono\nSt John was a priest in France when he celebrated his first Mass on 28th January 1193. It took place in the chapel of the Archbishop of Paris, Maurice de Sully\nThere he had a vision. He saw a man in white with a blue and red cross on his chest. The man had placed his hands on two prisoners: one of whom was white, the other a Moor\nThe next day St John made a a retreat in forest with a hermit. The two men saw another vision: a stag carrying a cross in its antlers (reminscent of the story of St Eustace ?)\nTroubled he discussed the visions which he came to interpret as a call to found an order dedicated to ransom Christian prisoners taken hostage in the Mediterranean.\nOften these hostages were pilgrims on the way to the Holy Land. As well as people who lived on the coast of the Mediterranean or traded there.\nThe mission of the Order put the lives of the Trinitarians at great risk. Many suffered death in their vocation\nThe order was approved by Pope Innocent III on 17th December 1198\nIn the work we see the vision of the saint occurring at the moment of Consecration of the Eucharist when the prayer of Jesus at the Last Supper is repeated by the priest.\nIt is not the prayer of the laity. But the whole Church can attend and join in the prayer\nIf we read the recent discourse by Pope Benedict XVI on prayer which is on Jesus` prayer at the institution of the Eucharist, the depth of Papa`s painting is uncovered.The work perfectly illustrates what occurred at the First Mass celebrated by Saint John of Matha and its effects on Saint John and his ministry\nIn his talk, the Pope first reminded us of the context of the Last Supper. It took place at a feast which was a memorial of past liberation and when hopes for present and future liberation were rekindled:\n\"[O]n the very day He was preparing to bid the disciples farewell, the life of the people of Israel was marked by the approaching feast of Passover; i.e. of the memorial of Israel\u2019s liberation from Egypt. This liberation -- experienced in the past, and awaited anew in the present and for the future -- was relived in the family celebrations of the Passover.\"\nBut this liberation is achieved by sacrifice, the self-sacrifice of Jesus:\n\"The Last Supper takes place within this context, but with a fundamental newness. Jesus looks to His Passion, Death and Resurrection fully aware of them. He wills to experience this Supper with His disciples, but with a wholly unique character, different from all other banquets: It is His Supper, in which He gives Something totally new: Himself. Thus it is that Jesus celebrates His Passover and anticipates His Cross and Resurrection.\"\nThis sacrifice arises from perfect love and charity. The repetition of the Eucharist is an act of the Trinity, of Trinitarian love:\n\"He therefore offers in anticipation the life that will be taken from Him, and in this way He transforms His violent death into a free act of self-giving for others and to others. The violence suffered is transformed into an active, free and redemptive sacrifice.\nOnce again, in prayer -- begun in accordance with the ritual forms of the biblical tradition -- Jesus reveals His identity and His determination to accomplish unto the end His mission of total love, of offering in obedience to the Father\u2019s Will. The profound originality of His gift of Himself to those who are His own through the memorial of the Eucharist is the summit of the prayer that marks the farewell supper with His disciples.\nIn contemplating Jesus\u2019 actions and words on that night, we see clearly that His intimate and constant relationship with the Father is the locus where He accomplishes the act of leaving to His disciples, and to each one of us, the Sacrament of love, the \u201cSacramentum caritatis\u201d.\nPapa depicts the saint in action in the prayer. It is a common enough depiction when a prest or saint is depicted celebrating the Eucharist (as in The Mass of Pope St Gregory). The Eucharist involves action and words. The acts are what we call ritual which are part of the prayer. These acts are not theatrical or performance art. They are far more serious and profound. They are part of the prayer, the Reality and the witness to the Truth:\n\"Before the words of institution come the actions: the breaking of bread and the offering of wine. The breaking of bread and the passing of the chalice are in the first instance the function of the head of the family, who welcomes the members of his family to his meal; but these are also gestures of hospitality, of welcoming the stranger who is not part of the household to table fellowship and communion.\nThese very gestures, in the meal with which Jesus takes leave of those who are his own, acquire an entirely new depth: He gives a visible sign of welcome to the meal in which God gives Himself. Jesus offers and communicates Himself in the form of bread and wine\"\nThe Pope emphasised the profound transformation effected by the Eucharist:\n\"The Eucharist is the food of pilgrims that becomes strength also for whoever is tired, exhausted and disoriented ...\nFrom her earliest days, the Church has understood the words of consecration as part of her praying together with Jesus; as a central part of the praise filled with thanksgiving through which the fruit of the earth and of men\u2019s hands are given to us anew by God in the form of Jesus\u2019 Body and Blood, as God\u2019s gift of Himself in His Son\u2019s self-emptying love (cf. Jesus of Nazareth, II, pg. 128).\nIn participating in the Eucharist, in nourishing ourselves on the Flesh and Blood of the Son of God, we unite our prayer to that of the paschal Lamb on His last night, so that our lives might not be lost, despite our weakness and infidelity, but might be transformed.\"\nSt Agnes: Portraits\nGonzales Coques 1614/18 - 1684\nPortrait of a Woman as Saint Agnes about 1680\nOil on silver 18.3 x 14.4 cm\nThe National Gallery, London (on long term loan to The Rubens House, Antwerp)\nThe patron saint of gardeners, girls, engaged couples, rape victims, and virgins has long been venerated since her death in AD 304\nHowever these days her stock is not as high as previously was the case.\nIn the seventeenth century, portrait painting was the vogue. It became more common than before.\nThe upper middle class and the aristocracy sometimes had themselves portrayed in the dress from figures in Roman history and Latin literature to illuminate the sitter\u2019s life. Sometimes as above even as saints.\nThere is a notable example in The Royal Collection of HM The Queen in London: Anthony Van Dyck Lady Mary Villiers, Duchess of Richmond and Lennox (1622-85) as St Agnes c.1637\nThe young woman in Coques` painting is possibly Maria Agnes, one of the daughters of Jacomo van Eycke and Cornelia Hillewerve. The rich merchant couple bought the Rubens House in 1660. The porchway of the Rubens House is depicted in the background\nBy 1650, Coques had effectively adapted the van Dyckian portrait style for his portraits. For architecture, his style derives from Rubens\u2019s family portraits and \u2018conversation pieces\u2019\nThe work was probably a gift for a future husband\nThe lamb is a play on her name (Latin agnus lamb) while the sword indicates her martyr\u2019s death.\nThe self-agrandissement in the portrait does not sit well with modern tastes. The modern taste for realism perhaps favours a more Italianate style of the early seventeenth century such as that of Francesco del Cairo below. This work depicts a brutal murder. But within the picture we see how a young girl`s faith overcame threats and violence. Perhaps more memorable and inspirational than that of the Flemish paintings of the seventeenth century.\nIn this sexualised age, we detect an eroticism in the painting which was not intended and would not have been conveyed and detected by contemporary viewers.\nFrancesco del Cairo (1607-1665) (aka Il Cavaliere del Cairo)\nThe Death of St Agnes 1635\nA Wedding in Cana\nNowadays the reading of The Wedding at Cana is influenced by David Hume and the post-Enlightenment and the debate on whether Jesus performed miracles or not\nAttention is on the physical changing of water into wine. Or not. And whether it is proof of the divinity of Christ or not.\nBut St Augustine described what happened in Cana as \"mysterious\" and redolent with symbols and signs (Tractate 8 (John 2:1-4); and Tractate 9 (John 2:1-2)\nSome of the \"mystery\" of the story is caught in the following work which was used as a model for many depictions of the scene in Germany in the nineteenth century. It is replete with meaning - perhaps too much.\nThe incident is only related in John. The other Gospels do not relate it. It is the first of Jesus`s miracles or rather \"signs\". It comes at the beginning of his public ministry when there were not even twelve disciples or apostles.\nBlessed Pope John Paul II thought that the location of the sign in John`s text- the beginning of Chapter 2 - was very significant:\n\"The expression \u201cthe beginning of his miracles\u201d, which the Council has taken from John\u2019s text,[(Lumen gentium, n. 58)] attracts our attention. The Greek term arche, translated as \u201cbeginning\u201d, is used by John in the Prologue of his Gospel: \u201cIn the beginning was the Word\u201d (1:1). This significant coincidence suggests a parallel between the very origins of Christ\u2019s glory in eternity and the first manifestation of this same glory in his earthly mission\"\n(Blessed Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday, 5 March 1997)\nThe Text in St John`s Gospel\n\"1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.\n2 Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.\n3 When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, \"They have no wine.\"\n4 (And) Jesus said to her, \"Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come.\"\n5 His mother said to the servers, \"Do whatever he tells you.\"\n6 Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons.\n7 Jesus told them, \"Fill the jars with water.\" So they filled them to the brim.\n8 Then he told them, \"Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.\" So they took it.\n9 And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom\n10 and said to him, \"Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now.\"\n11 Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.\n12 After this, he and his mother, (his) brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and stayed there only a few days.\"\n(John 2: 1 - 12)\nIt is the first of a number of \"signs\" made by Jesus and narrated in Chapter 2. But John has the following comment regarding these signs:\n\"23 While he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, many began to believe in his name when they saw the signs he was doing.\n25 and did not need anyone to testify about human nature. He himself understood it well.\"\nThe setting of the incident\nIt is in the village of Cana. There is disagreement as to where Cana was. It was a small hill village. But only John mentions Cana (in this and some other occasions). It is not mentioned anywhere else in Scripture\nCana:\nIt is a wedding. We do not know whose wedding it was.\nThere was a tradition among some in late medieval times that the groom was St John himself. It was based on the Apochrypha and the stories set out in Jacobus de Voragine. Others went further and said that the bride was St Mary Magdalene. But even Jacobus de Voragine thought that too fanciful and rejected it absolutely.\nHere are two paintings both by Flemish artists and based on the legend that the bridegroom was St John:\nJuan de Flandes (active by 1496\u2013died 1519)\nThe Marriage Feast at Cana\nJan Cornelisz. Vermeyen c. 1500 - 1559\nVermeyen`s work is hypnotic. It is a remarkable work. Realism and Chiaroscuro did not begin with Caravaggio. The Flemish artists of the sixteenth century had already perfected the technique.\nUnusually the artists makes the bride and the bridegroom major figures in the narrative. This emphasis on their identification with St John and St Mary Magdalene detracts from the painting. The intimacy of the theme and the chiaroscuro effects inevitably suggests the compositions of the Caravaggisti`s depictions of the scene at Emmaus. However the identification of the Feast with the Eucharist is another major theme considered below\nBut presumably like all rural weddings that used to take place in the Mediterranean the wedding was not a quiet or private occasion. It was a public and communal occasion in which the whole village and the whole extended families and friends were invited.\nWeddings in the Holy Land were celebrated for a whole week. Much wine was consumed.\nThe running out of wine would have been a personal disaster for the spouses and their families. It would never have been lived down. It would always be remembered. The beginning of the marriage would have been to say the least inauspicious.\nIt is the setting of the wedding which is emphasised by the Vatican website when it discusses the incident as the Second Mystery of Light:\n\"\"On the threshold of his public life Jesus performs his first sign \u00adat his mother's request - during a wedding feast: The Church attaches great importance to Jesus' presence at the wedding at Cana. She sees in it the confirmation of the goodness of marriage and the proclamation that thenceforth marriage will be an efficacious sign of Christ's presence\" (CCC, 1613).\"\nFeasting at a crowded wedding is the predominant theme in a number of works such as these. Everyone loves a wedding:\nDiego Oronzo Bianchi di Manduria (1683 - 1767)\nSanta Maria degli Angeli , Gallipoli, Puglia, Italy\nLeandro da Ponte (Leandro Bassano)\nThe Marriage at Cana c. 1579\nA Spiritual Union\nBut it is more than an affirmation of a marriage between man and woman. The early Church saw it as a symbol of much greater significance: a Spiritual Marriage, the prefiguration of the institution of the Eucharist and the sacrifice on Calvary:\n\"The context of a wedding banquet, chosen by Jesus for his first miracle, refers to the marriage symbolism used frequently in the Old Testament to indicate the Covenant between God and his People (cf. Hos 2:21; Jer 2:1-8; Ps 44; etc.), and in the New Testament to signify Christ\u2019s union with the Church (cf. Jn 3:28-30; Eph 5:25-32; Rv 21:1-2, etc.) .\nAccording to the interpretation of Christian authors, the miracle at Cana also has a deep Eucharistic meaning. Performing this miracle near the time of the Jewish feast Passover (cf. Jn 2:13), Jesus, as he did in multiplying the loaves (cf. Jn 6:4), shows his intention to prepare the true paschal banquet, the Eucharist. His desire at the wedding in Cana seems to be emphasized further by the presence of wine, which alludes to the blood of the New Covenant, and by the context of a banquet.\"\nPope Benedict XVI put it more expansively (Monday, 11 September 2006):\n\" [He] gives a sign, in which he proclaims his hour, the hour of the wedding-feast, the hour of union between God and man.\nIt is this spiritual dimension which is recorded in these works especially in the last of the 'Flemish Primitives':\nG\u00e9rard David (c 1460-1523)\n1.0 m. x 1.280 m.\nJacopo Robusti (Tintoretto) (1518-1594)\nCommissioned, Painted and still in situ in the Sacristy of the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Salute, Venice\n26 1/4 by 14 3/4 in.; 66.5 by 37.5 cm.\nThe six stone jars\nThe superabundance of the grace of Christ is seen in the amount of wine which results. The six stone jars John speaks of would together hold about 150 gallons, that is, about 800 bottles\u2019 worth. Such superabundance is seen again in the Feeding of the Five Thousand\nBut the early Church saw a greater significance in the six stone jars. Early Christian art focuses on these:\nPanel depicting the filling of the water pots at the Miracle of Cana,\nRelief in ivory\nThe stone jars were filled with water for Jewish religious rites. The transformation of the water into wine was seen as the supersession of the Old Law by the New Law\nIn Tractate 9, Saint Augustine expounds at length on the pots:\n\"And we know that the law extends from the time of which we have record, that is, from the beginning of the world: In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1\nThence down to the time in which we are now living are six ages, this being the sixth, as you have often heard and know.\nThe first age is reckoned from Adam to Noah; the second, from Noah to Abraham; and, as Matthew the evangelist duly follows and distinguishes, the third, from Abraham to David; the fourth, from David to the carrying away into Babylon; the fifth, from the carrying away into Babylon to John the Baptist; Matthew 1:17 the sixth, from John the Baptist to the end of the world.\nMoreover, God made man after His own image on the sixth day, because in this sixth age is manifested the renewing of our mind through the gospel, after the image of Him who created us; Colossians 3:10 and the water is turned into wine, that we may taste of Christ, now manifested in the law and the prophets.\nHence there were there six water-pots, which He bade be filled with water.\nNow the six water-pots signify the six ages, which were not without prophecy. And those six periods, divided and separated as it were by joints, would be as empty vessels unless they were filled by Christ. Why did I say, the periods which would run fruitlessly on, unless the Lord Jesus were preached in them? Prophecies are fulfilled, the water-pots are full; but that the water may be turned into wine, Christ must be understood in that whole prophecy\"\nThe role of Mary\nAnd then but not least we come to Mary.\nMary had a major role in what happened at Cana. Without her the great \"sign\" would not have occurred She is the instigator of the first public manifestation of Christ`s ministry\nIt is in this incident that we have the last recorded authentic words of Mary. \"They have no wine.\" \"Do whatever he tells you.\"\nCyr Manuel Evgenikos\nFragment of The Marriage Feast at Cana\nSouth transept, The Church of The Holy Saviour, Tsalendjikha, Georgia\nYet there is something very disturbing about this part of the tale.\nSaint Augustine and Pope Benedict XVI both point out what is wrong or seems to be wrong: we do not like the way Christ talks to Mary, his mother\n\"In the first place, we don't like the way he addresses her: \u201cWoman\u201d. Why doesn't he say: \u201cMother\u201d? ...\nYet we like even less what Jesus at Cana then says to Mary: \u201cWoman, what have I to do with you? My hour has not yet come\u201d (Jn 2:4). We want to object: you have a lot to do with her! It was Mary who gave you flesh and blood, who gave you your body, and not only your body: with the \u201cyes\u201d which rose from the depths of her heart she bore you in her womb and with a mother's love she gave you life and introduced you to the community of the people of Israel.\"\n(Pope Benedict XVI, Homily of Monday, 11 September 2006)\nMattia Preti 1613 - 1699\nPope Benedict XVI explains thiese difficulties in his Homily.\nIt was also considered in the ARCIC document Mary: Grace and Hope in Christ\nIt considered the role of Mary in the entirety of St John`s Gospel, the great Christological Gospel where the emphasis is on the Divinity of Christ. Mary is fully human. Christ is wholly human and wholly divine. The public ministry of Christ changes His relationship with his mother:\n\"Mary in John\u2019s Gospel\n22 Mary is not mentioned explicitly in the Prologue of John\u2019s Gospel. However, something of the significance of her role in salvation history may be discerned by placing her in the context of the considered theological truths that the evangelist articulates in unfolding the good news of the Incarnation. The theological emphasis on the divine initiative, that in the narratives of Matthew and Luke is expressed in the story of Jesus\u2019 birth, is paralleled in the Prologue of John by an emphasis on the predestining will and grace of God by which all those who are brought to new birth are said to be born \u201cnot of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God\u201d (1:13). These are words that could be applied to the birth of Jesus himself.\n23 At two important moments of Jesus\u2019 public life, the beginning (the wedding at Cana) and the end (the Cross), John notes the presence of Jesus\u2019 mother. Each is an hour of need: the first on the surface rather trivial, but at a deeper level a symbolic anticipation of the second.\nJohn gives a prominent position in his Gospel to the wedding at Cana (2:1-12), calling it the beginning (arch\u0113) of the signs of Jesus. The account emphasizes the new wine which Jesus brings, symbolizing the eschatological marriage feast of God with his people and the messianic banquet of the Kingdom. The story primarily conveys a Christological message: Jesus reveals his messianic glory to his disciples and they believe in him (2:11).\n24 The presence of the \u201cmother of Jesus\u201d is mentioned at the beginning of the story: she has a distinctive role in the unfolding of the narrative. Mary seems to have been invited and be present in her own right, not with \u201cJesus and his disciples\u201d (2:1-2); Jesus is initially seen as present as part of his mother\u2019s family.\nIn the dialogue between them when the wine runs out, Jesus seems at first to refuse Mary\u2019s implied request, but in the end he accedes to it. This reading of the narrative, however, leaves room for a deeper symbolic reading of the event.\nIn Mary\u2019s words \u201cthey have no wine\u201d, John ascribes to her the expression not so much of a deficiency in the wedding arrangements, as of the longing for salvation of the whole covenant people, who have water for purification but lack the joyful wine of the messianic kingdom.\nIn his answer, Jesus begins by calling into question his former relationship with his mother (\u201cWhat is there between you and me?\u201d), implying that a change has to take place. He does not address Mary as \u2018mother\u2019, but as \u201cwoman\u201d (cf. John 19:26). Jesus no longer sees his relation to Mary as simply one of earthly kinship.\n25 Mary\u2019s response, to instruct the servants to \u201cDo whatever he tells you\u201d (2:5), is unexpected; she is not in charge of the feast (cf. 2:8).\nHer initial role as the mother of Jesus has radically changed. She herself is now seen as a believer within the messianic community. From this moment on, she commits herself totally to the Messiah and his word. A new relationship results, indicated by the change in the order of the main characters at the end of the story: \u201cAfter this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples\u201d (2:12).\nThe Cana narrative opens by placing Jesus within the family of Mary, his mother; from now on, Mary is part of the \u201ccompany of Jesus\u201d, his disciple. Our reading of this passage reflects the Church\u2019s understanding of the role of Mary: to help the disciples come to her son, Jesus Christ, and to \u201cdo whatever he tells you.\u201d\n26 John\u2019s second mention of the presence of Mary occurs at the decisive hour of Jesus\u2019 messianic mission, his crucifixion (19:25-27). Standing with other disciples at the cross, Mary shares in the suffering of Jesus, who in his last moments addresses a special word to her, \u201cWoman, behold your son\u201d, and to the beloved disciple, \u201cBehold your mother.\u201d We cannot but be touched that, even in his dying moments, Jesus is concerned for the welfare of his mother, showing his filial affection. This surface reading again invites a symbolic and ecclesial reading of John\u2019s rich narrative. These last commands of Jesus before he dies reveal an understanding beyond their primary reference to Mary and \u201cthe beloved disciple\u201d as individuals. The reciprocal roles of the \u2018woman\u2019 and the \u2018disciple\u2019 are related to the identity of the Church. Elsewhere in John, the beloved disciple is presented as the model disciple of Jesus, the one closest to him who never deserted him, the object of Jesus\u2019 love, and the ever-faithful witness (13:25, 19:26, 20:1-10, 21:20-25). Understood in terms of discipleship, Jesus\u2019 dying words give Mary a motherly role in the Church and encourage the community of disciples to embrace her as a spiritual mother.\n27 A corporate understanding of \u2018woman\u2019 also calls the Church constantly to behold Christ crucified, and calls each disciple to care for the Church as mother. Implicit here perhaps is a Mary-Eve typology: just as the first \u2018woman\u2019 was taken from Adam\u2019s \u2018rib\u2019 (Genesis 2:22, pleura LXX) and became the mother of all the living (Genesis 3:20), so the \u2018woman\u2019 Mary is, on a spiritual level, the mother of all who gain true life from the water and blood that flow from the side (Greek pleura, literally \u2018rib\u2019) of Christ (19:34) and from the Spirit that is breathed out from his triumphant sacrifice (19:30, 20:22, cf. 1 John 5:8).\nIn such symbolic and corporate readings, images for the Church, Mary and discipleship interact with one another. Mary is seen as the personification of Israel, now giving birth to the Christian community (cf. Isaiah 54:1, 66:7-8), just as she had given birth earlier to the Messiah (cf. Isaiah 7:14).\nWhen John\u2019s account of Mary at the beginning and end of Jesus\u2019 ministry is viewed in this light, it is difficult to speak of the Church without thinking of Mary, the Mother of the Lord, as its archetype and first realization.\"\nThe Prayer of Mary: \"Vinum non habent\"\nGer\u00f3nimo Nadal (1507-1580),\nAdnotationes et meditationes in Evangelia : [cum Imaginibus et lineis rubris]\nThe Bavarian State Library, Munich\nPope Benedict has cited Mary`s prayer as a model:\n\"Mary leaves everything to the Lord's judgement.\nAt Nazareth she gave over her will, immersing it in the will of God: \u201cHere am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word\u201d (Lk 1:38). And this continues to be her fundamental attitude.\nThis is how she teaches us to pray: not by seeking to assert before God our own will and our own desires, however important they may be, however reasonable they might appear to us, but rather to bring them before him and to let him decide what he intends to do.\nFrom Mary we learn graciousness and readiness to help, but we also learn humility and generosity in accepting God's will, in the confident conviction that, whatever it may be, it will be our, and my own, true good.\"\nIn his Purgatorio, Dante uses this prayer on the Second Terrace where those guilty of the sin of Envy are being purified. The prayer is seen as part of the cure for Envy.\nDante and Virgil first hear voices on the air telling stories of Charity, selfless generosity, the opposite virtue.\n\"The first voice that passed onward in its flight,\n29 Vinum non habent, said in accents loud,\n30 And went reiterating it behind us.\"\n(Dante, Purgatory. Canto 13. Lines 28 - 30 trans Longfellow)\nIn the same way that Christ transformed water into wine at Cana, Dante reminds us that by the grace of God, those in Purgatory are transformed.\nMary`s order: \" \"Do whatever he tells you.\" ( Quodcumque dixerit vobis, facite)\nThese are Mary`s last recorded words in Scripture. They are in the form of a command\nThey are simple and direct. The words need no elaboration.\nPope Benedict used the words to make an exhortation:\n\"Mary told the servants to turn to Jesus and gave them a precise order: \u201cDo whatever he tells you\u201d (Jn 2:5). Treasure these words, the last to be spoken by Mary as recorded in the Gospels, as it were, a spiritual testament of hers, and you will always have the joy of the celebration: Jesus is the wine of the feast!\"\n(Pope Benedict XVI. Speech at Ancona, Italy September 2011)",

But the all-female guide staff at Chobe Game Lodge is leading the way for women in tourism\u2014and they\u2019re doing so with the added advantage of eco-tourism and clean energy training.\nThe women safari guides at the Chobe Game Lodge in Botswana are breaking down barriers in one of Botswana\u2019s most profitable economic drivers\u2014tourism. And now they're doing so with some of the most advanced eco-technology in the country.\nThe professional guide industry in Botswana is, for the most part, dominated by men. In fact, in 2005, there were fewer than 10 female guides in all of Botswana--two of whom were working at Chobe. In an effort to support more women in senior positions in Botswana\u2019s tourism industry, Chobe Game lodge (one of the oldest tourist lodges in Botswana, built in the 1970s when Botwana\u2019s tourism industry was just beginning) decided to revamp their team to employ only women. Now the 14 person team is all females. They recruited some of the top female guides in the country and worked with the Botswana Wildlife Training Institute to train them. The all-female staff receive regular trainings from external accredited institutes on every aspect of nature conservation and sustainable use of natural resources.\nIn Nov. 2014 Chobe Game Lodge also launched their first eco-friendly safaris, with a fleet of emissions-free, four-wheel drive electric vehicles and electric safari boats used for game viewing. They are the first safari lodge in Africa to do so\u2014a process that began eight years ago. The electricity comes from the hydro-electric scheme at nearby Victoria Falls, making the energy used to power the fleet fully renewable. The guides now receive on-the-job training in how to operate and maintain the lodge\u2019s electric fleet--the only one of its kind in the country.\nAlison Wright, a New York based social documentary photographer, has spent a career capturing the universal human spirit through her photographs and writing.

        "raw_content": "International Higher Education Consulting website has new look\nI have a healthy web presence within the international education community and the main website for my side consulting work International Higher Education Consulting can be found at davidcomp.wordpress.com/. My other main website, IHEC Blog (where this post originated from), could arguably be called my home base as it is much more popular and the content is more robust and frequent. I do have plans to rework and rethink my entire web presence and social media strategy but for now all is currently working very well for me and all roads lead to my International Higher Education Consulting website. For some time now I've been thinking and working to change the look and feel of the website and after numerous small adjustments I have what I think will be the final product (until I decide to change yet again). Below is a screen shot of the new site with one of my favorite posts. What do you think?\nLabels: David Comp, IHEC Blog, International Higher Education Consulting\n*speaking as a pretentious art critic, a bit out of character for me* I like how the chaotic nature of the banner contrasts with the organization of the tabs up-top. Overall, it\u2019s visually pleasing and varied, something that wouldn\u2019t get tiring to look at any time soon.\nDavid Comp July 20, 2012 at 8:58 AM\nThanks, Sarah. I'm not the most creative person artistically and this took some time to find the right photo/picture. I'll keep if for a bit!\nA bit belated as a reply, but none-the-less: Seriously, it\u2019s a great new design. I like it, anyway, and I\u2019m a picky person.",

(4th) 357 (Herlich), the employee, who had been denied a one day leave to attend an appointment with a medical specialist, was then terminated. The employer contended that the employee had never advised of the reason for the requested leave. The arbitrator dismissed the employer\u2019s contention and ultimately reinstated the employee on the basis that the employee was statutorily entitled to such leave.\nSection 50 (1) of the Ontario Employment Standards Act addresses personal emergency leave. It provides, in part, that\nAn employee whose employer regularly employs 50 or more employees is entitled to a leave of absence without pay because of any of the following:\nA personal illness, injury or medical emergency \u2026\nThe legislation, which contains a notification requirement, limits such leave to a total of 10 days in each calendar year. It also provides that an employee may be required to provide reasonable evidence of entitlement to such leave.\nIn concluding that a specialist\u2019s appointment fell within the category of \u201ca personal illness, injury, or medical emergency,\u201d the arbitrator distinguished the situation from that of a routine medical appointment:\nThis is not a case where the grievor was attending his family physician to, for example, renew a medical prescription. Rather, the appointment was with a specialist to inquire into a medical concern the grievor had regarding his ankle. It is common knowledge that appointments with medical specialists can be difficult to obtain \u2026 and are not simply arranged directly between patients and specialists. The mere fact of the involvement of a specialist itself suggests some further objective verification (beyond the grievor\u2019s own evidence) of the possible existence of a medical pathology warranting inquiry. An appointment with a medical specialist to inquire into such a pathology is one that addresses personal illness or injury.",

        "raw_content": "American Protestant missionaries established the first Christian school in Bangkok. It was initially situated on the Thonburi side but ultimately moved to Sathorn road and became known as Bangkok Christian College.\nPrince Damrong Rajanubhab observed that Catholics and Protestants differed in their methods of proselytization. The latter were often more humble and down-to-earth. They reached out to the masses. They got married, worked as doctors or teachers, and published books. Then when the locals began to admire them, the proselytizing process would begin. Here Dan Beach Bradley, who came to Siam during the Third Reign and was credited with introducing the first Thai-script printing press to the kingdom, was an exemplary model. Yet, even Bradley conceded that he was utterly unsuccessful in converting Thais to Protestantism.\nOn the other hand, Catholics were attached to their priest status and targeted the ruling elites in society. They represented themselves as the embodiment of Western know-how, which was superior to that of the Non-West, to win the hearts and minds of the ruling class?for instance, this was apparent during the reign of King Narai. However, this method also proved to be a failure in the Thai kingdom as it was in China. Nevertheless, it was successful in Vietnam.\nMy simple point is that Father Colombet was probably emulating the American protestant missionaries when he established Assumption College (AC). He correctly noted that as Siam was increasingly opening up to the West since the Fourth Reign, the country was in need of good schools for boys (and later girls) of birth and breeding. At first he built a small school only for Christian students. But, being the visionary that he was, he eventually enlarged the student body by admitting the enrolment of non-Christian students. This was in line with King Rama V?s desire to modernize the kingdom. On 15 August 1887, H.R.H. Crown Prince Maha Vajirunhis represented King Chulalongkorn in laying down the cornerstone for the construction of the school?s first study hall.\nAlong with the school, its administrative body comprised of priests must also be enlarged to guarantee its effectiveness. This would allow the administrators to have time to pray and further expand their knowledge. And Assumption College would be in a better position to compete with the school set up by American protestant missionaries as well as the new public schools established by the Siamese state.\nFather Colombet thus returned to France to seek help from the Superior General of the Brothers of St. Gabriel, which eventually sent five reverend brothers to take over the school?s management. They began work in 1903. Reverend Brother Martin de Tours led the new management team, which included Reverend Brothers Arbaire, Augustine, Gabriel Ferreti and Hilaire. Brother Hilaire was the youngest in the team and proved to be a genius in the studying and teaching of the Thai language. His Darun Suksa (or Thai language manuals) was widely used in all Catholic schools.\nOn the whole, the French missionary priests and St. Gabriel reverend brothers in Siam shared the same political orientation: they valued the monarchy, despised the masses, and shunned any mode of political economy that smacked of leftism. In short, they were conservatives and reactionaries. They even opposed modern forms of knowledge that contravened the Church?s teachings. For example, world history as taught at Assumption College would begin with the creation of the world based on the Book of Genesis?and would end with the reign of King Louis XIV, which established close contacts with King Narai. Small wonder that the St. Gabriel reverend brothers were close to the Siamese royal court. The latter did not convert to Christianity but facilitated the works of missionaries in the country and enabled them to have access to the king and other royal family members. This kind of relationship no longer existed in France. Perhaps the reverend brothers could ?experience? the good old days in France while living in Siam.\nTo briefly sum up, between 1903 and 1932 Assumption College went along well with the absolute monarchy in Siam. It produced many outstanding students who went on to work for the Siamese bureaucracy as well as foreign and local companies.\nAssumption College taught students to be diligent and disciplined. AC students also tended to be more proficient in the English language, especially when compared to students from the government?s schools. Its teachers paid close attention to every student and tirelessly worked to pull out the best in them. AC teachers treated all students equally, regardless of their class, religion, ethnicity and blood. Orphan students received full scholarships and lived in the school?s compound. This spirit of equality was lacking in other schools, especially during the period of absolutism. For instance, at Suankularb College, which was founded by King Chulalongkorn and is the country?s oldest public secondary school, royal family students had their own cafeteria separated from others. Thus Prince Damrong sent one son to Assumption College to teach him something about social equality.\nAt the same time, the school failed to reach out to the poorest strata in Siam, particularly those living in the rural areas. Also the school?s administrators did not recognize that the time of absolutism was over. They could not keep up with the changing times.\nThe 1932 Revolution shook and divided the school. Shortly after the revolution, a number of high school students revolted against the school?s authority. It was however quickly and gently put down by the school. The revolution also meant that many royal family members who were the school?s supporters or patrons were now brandished as public villains. AC alumni were thus divided into two. Even the Vice President of the Old Alumni Association was rounded up, imprisoned and exiled to the Tarutao islands. He eventually escaped to Singapore and ultimately Australia.\nBrother Hilaire spoke well for the school?s position when he visited the man in Bang Kwang Central Prison. He told him not to worry about his son who was also studying at Assumption College. The school would take care of his tuitions until he graduated. (However, when the son was studying at Chulalongkorn University, he was dismissed from the university after visiting his father in Singapore.)\nBrother Hilaire didn?t seem to realize that the arch-enemy of the man in prison would later become the country?s premier and dictator?using Hitler and Mussolini as role models. Although Field Marshal Phibunsongkram was educated in France he despised this group of French missionaries in Siam. Eventually, he would expel them from the country. The Field Marshal also hated French Indochina, ultimately declaring war on it.\nAssumption College was partly ruined during the Second World War and had to relocate to Sriracha. The school was also unable to maintain full independence during the war. Its curriculum had to reflect the prevailing nationalism at the time, stressing Thai-ness and obedience to the country?s ruler. Students had to wear the student military uniform and had to stand in row to pay respect to the national flag in the morning before class. And so on.\nFortunately, the Spanish and Italian reverends were allowed to continue running the school (because they were not nationals of enemy states). More importantly, several AC alumni also played a vital role in the Free Thai Movement such as Luang Aduldejarat, Direk Jayanama and Puey Ungphakorn. While Puey was preparing to clandestinely enter Siam via India he even had an opportunity to further his knowledge of the Thai language with Brother Hilaire who was in exile there.\nThe French missionaries returned to Siam when the war ended. Brother Hilaire once remarked that postwar Thais tended to de-value dignity, truth and diligence. They were more obsessed with money and power and cared less about the good. These might have been because of the postwar conditions as the people struggled to make a living, as the cost of living was rising dramatically, as families were broken, and so on. Interestingly, it was in the postwar period that the ugly word ?corruption? first came into popular usage in Thai society.\nTo what extent has the St. Gabriel brotherhood been successful in cultivating the moral, ethical and religious development of Thai reverends? In my opinion, the Thai reverends were very successful in improving the material conditions of the school. For instance, the school was enlarged to include a commercial college and a university. Many of the Thai reverends became capable teachers and great administrators. The important question however is how many of them actually led a way of life like that of Brother Martin de Tours or matched the excellence across disciplines of Reverend Brother Hilaire.\nFor me, among the Thai reverends at Assumption College, Brother Vicharn Songsiengchai clearly stood out. He acted as a kalynamitta to all students. He was open to the younger generation. He was willing to understand the poor and socially excluded. He encouraged AC students to go to the rural areas to engage in social and development work and live with the villagers. The idea was to practice solidarity. He often went with them ?to sleep on dirt and eat on sand? as a Thai saying goes.\nThe great task ahead for Assumption College under the management of the St. Gabriel brotherhood is to create an alternative to mainstream education. At the broadest level, this means joining hands with others, both secular and religious, to revive (or maintain fidelity to) the basic insight of Brother Hilaire?s timeless words, reinterpreted, crudely translated and rewritten from poetry into prose as follows:\nEnlighten yourself. Open the eyes. Seek for knowledge.\nStudy the words of teachers and of God with alertness and diligence.\nYou will be prosperous with treasures in the present.\nBut never forget that Heaven is superior.\nThis appears to be a Christian teaching with a lot of Buddhist echoes. After all ?Buddha? means ?the enlightened one.? And the eyes can also refer to the Eye of Wisdom (Dhammacakkhu). ?Words of teachers? should be interpreted not as mainstream knowledge but as criticisms. In Thai the word for ?teacher? is ?kru?, which means heavy, intense, serious, strong, or substantial. Thus the teachers? words are things that we may not want to hear about ourselves or that hurt our pride but are nevertheless crucial for self-criticism and change. ?Words of God? are higher than those of our teachers or kalyanamitta. They can be found in the Bible, the Koran, sacred writings, etc. When we have learned both worldly and sacred words carefully and use them to reevaluate and improve our conducts we will accomplish great wealth in the present. Finally, ?Heaven? is higher than any worldly treasure. It does not necessarily mean the other world. Rather it refers to the proper or good path, which leads us to minimize self-attachment and serve all sentient beings. The path to ?Heaven? ultimately leads to the cessation of suffering?a blissful void.\nFramed photographs of four AC alumni adorned one of the walls of Brother Hilaire?s office. They were designated as role models for AC students. These four individuals were:\n1) Chao Phya Srithammathibet, the most successful of the early batches of students under the absolute monarchy; he was the last Chao Phya of old Siam.\n2) Khuang Aphaiwongse, the only French major who became prime minister. Brother Hilaire did not post the photographs of other AC alumni who became premiers such as Phya Manopakornnititada and MR Seni Pramoj on his office wall. It seemed that the reverend brother did not notice Khuang?s deceitfulness and deviousness.\n3) Luang Aduldejarat, an honest and trustworthy Police Chief who however was also authoritarian.\n4) Direk Jayanama, a highly capable foreign minister who supported the Free Thai Movement and was very close to Pridi Banomyong. Out of these four individuals, his greatness seemed to be the least understood or appreciated by contemporary Thais.\nLikewise, present AC students should learn from numerous alumni?both their strengths and shortcomings. We should further ask who else among AC alumni deserved to be honored.\nIf I am forced to pick only one illustrious AC alumni it would be Puey Ungphakorn. The reason for this is not because of his success at the Bank of Thailand or in the field on non-governmental development, which was of course unparalleled. Nor is it because of his honesty and humility, great love for family and wife, or involvement in the Free Thai Movement. Rather, it is because he possessed great moral courage, especially in confronting the military dictatorship. His well-known open letter to Thanom Kitticachorn (?Nai Khem Yenying?s Letter to Nai Tamnu Kiatkong, Village Headman of Thai Charoen Village?) was written in a polite manner. But it was driven by a deep and powerful sense of virtue. He wrote the letter knowing well that it would entail great personal cost. But he willingly wrote it to maintain his dignity and support the great causes of peace, democracy and justice. Therefore, he is a worthy model for present AC students.",

        "raw_content": "This image provided by Yonhap News TV shows North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore\nTrump made the remarks at a working lunch with Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at the presidential palace Istana after their bilateral meeting during which the two leaders discussed everything from the summit preparations to the US' tariff threats. On May 30, Pompeo met with North Korean spy chief Kim Yong-chol in NY; their discussion concluded two hours earlier than expected, as Kim refused to make any commitment whatsoever on denuclearization, according to the Washington Post.\nWhile advisers say Trump has been reviewing briefing materials, the president insists his gut instincts will matter most when he gets in the room with Kim.\nThe US president proclaimed \"excitement in the air\" as he arrived in Singapore yesterday as officials from both countries met to narrow differences on how to end a nuclear stand-off on the Korean peninsula.\nAnother shot shows him atop the hotel, owned by staunch Trump-loyalist Sheldon Adelson, taking in the views night-time views of Singapore's cityscape. Bloomberg first reported the reason behind the schedule change.\nTrump spoke only briefly in public on Monday, forecasting a \"nice\" outcome.\n\"We will not be surprised by any scenario\", said the official.\nTrump will hold a press conference at 4 p.m. local time (6 p.m. AEST). \"We will all know soon whether or not a real deal, unlike those of the past, can happen!\"\n\"I can only say this\", Pompeo said. \"They will talk for as long as they need to\", said the official, who asked to remain anonymous. \"We will be fine!\"\nPompeo traveled twice to Pyongyang in recent months to lay the groundwork for Trump's meeting, becoming the most senior member of Trump's team to spend time with Kim face to face.\nThe White House, in the statement, said that the ongoing discussions between the United States and North Korea had moved faster than expected. It would be the first meeting between a sitting USA president and a North Korean leader since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.\nWarner Bros. did not specify how Steve Trevor (who seemingly died in the first film set in World War I) is returning. Where did he get that tracksuit and how is it the most toned-down thing happening in this neon '80s dreamscape?\nThe United States is willing to offer North Korea \"unique\" security guarantees if it embarks on \"complete verifiable and irreversible denuclearisation, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Monday\". -North Korea contact. In a sign of lingering tensions, the North Koreans have been closely scrutinizing all American staffers who are slated to be in any U.S.\nUS President Donald Trump had tweeted before leaving for Singapore saying that \"I am on my way to Singapore where we have a chance to achieve a truly wonderful result for North Korea and the World\".\nHe has raised the possibility of further summits and an agreement on ending the Korean War by replacing the armistice signed in 1953 with a peace treaty. The White House said Trump will address reporters on Tuesday before flying back to the US.\nTrump also tweeted: \"Meetings between staffs and representatives are going well and quickly. but in the end, that doesn't matter. He just goes and he does it\". But the North has long sought an end to the United States military presence in the South, where Washington has around 28,000 troops stationed to protect it from its neighbor. \"We must put the American worker first!\"\nBolton's hardline rhetoric last month infuriated North Korea and almost derailed the summit.\nBut it will be up to Trump to decide how much to embrace the North Korean dictator.\nChosun Ilbo speculates that part of the reason North Korean officials only revealed that Kim left the country after he had returned is that Kim \"at first seemed nervous that discontent in the unruly military or the Pyongyang elite could bubble over in his absence\". And how will Trump react if he does?\nMr Pompeo said the USA is prepared to show North Korea that rather than denuclearisation posing a threat to North Korea, it's \"the opposite\".\nMr Kim smiled broadly as he met Mr Lee. He declined, however, to reveal any details of the preliminary discussions being held Monday between USA and North Korean officials.\nThe topics on the table at the Kim-Trump summit have remained largely a mystery.",

The original Dawn of the Dead was filmed at the Monroeville Mall outside of Pittsburgh, PA. A few fansites uncover the history behind this location, including a 2003 tour of the mall by fans and cast members.\nMuch like the way that The Blues Brothers put Chicago on the moviemaking map, Romero\u2019s zombie trilogy (and many of his other films) used Pittsburgh and other nearby locations extensively.\nThe Downing Street Memos: Just another link in the chain\nThis past week, the infamous Downing Street Memos have finally started to get some serious attention from the mainstream media. Many news reports and opinion pieces dismiss the importance of the documents, stating that the memos\u2019 revelations are \u201cold news,\u201d and that anyone paying attention would have come to the same conclusions already.\nThis may be true, but the elephant in the room that many people are ignoring is the sheer amount of evidence suggesting that Bush was planning an invasion of Iraq all along \u2014 even before he was elected into office. 9/11 and the war on terrorism provided the perfect opportunity to sell this war to a wary and vengeful public, and the White House purposely manipulated the intelligence to support their case for war. Several credible and high-level sources have already emerged to reveal Bush\u2019s long-standing intentions:\nMickey Herskowitz, an author and journalist who was originally chosen to ghostwrite George W\u2019s biography, recalls that as early as 1999, Bush told him that he was thinking about invading Iraq. Investigative journalist Russ Baker details these charges in this recent article.\nIn his book Against All Enemies, Richard Clarke, the former counterterrorism chief under Clinton and Bush recalls that a discussion of Iraq came up at the first Security Council meeting \u2014 ten days after Bush took office, and eight months before 9/11. He further recalls that on the evening of 9/11, a discussion took place at the White House about Iraq \u2014 instead of al-Qaeda and Afghanistan. In a widely publicized incident from his book, Clarke recalls that the president took him aside and demanded he find a link between Iraq and 9/11. The report that Clarke produced as a result, which found no link between Iraq and 9/11, was rejected by the White House.\nPaul O\u2019Neill, Bush\u2019s former Treasury Secretary, also substantiates the incidents of the first Security Council meeting where an impending invasion of Iraq was being discussed. O\u2019Neill was the primary source behind the book The Price of Loyalty, written by former WSJ reporter Ron Susskind.\nThe Downing Street Memos are just another high-level source supporting the case that the White House was determined to push for the war in Iraq, despite the lack of strong evidence supporting it. The White House dropped the ball on al-Qaeda before 9/11 because of their insistance that Saddam was the real threat, and they diverted needed resources from the fight against terrorism afterwards with the war on Iraq.\nThe right wing pushed for Clinton\u2019s impeachment in 1999 because he received a blowjob from a White House intern. Somehow I think that deceiving Congress and the public about the case for the Iraq war is far worse. Untold thousands have died, our reputation with the rest of the world has declined to new lows, and our soldiers and tax dollars will be tied up in Iraq for years to come.",

        "raw_content": "Alexey Sosedov.\nGrandeur and poverty of Halloween\nIn our rational age, some people feel aroused afresh to archetypes dormant in the collective memory of those times when people lived in myths and myths lived in people. Man painted on rocks thus asserting his perception of the world. But it was not an art; it was not a game.\nAnd now demons, house-spirits, witches appeared. All the evil spirits were descending on the earth. To avoid falling prey to them, people arrayed themselves as frightful as possible in the hope to scare the evil spirits away. This is how it was.\nIs there a person in Europe or America or possibly in Russia today who will say: I array myself as a demon and light a candle in a pumpkin to drive away the pestering demons? Hardly so.\nHalloween is a play. But is it worth it to try on a costume and come out to the scene? Is it worth it to eat pumpkin in order to share in the \u2018mystery\u2019? Is it necessary to appropriate the myths which not only belong to others but are also impossible of being regenerated even in those places where they appeared? Indeed, the clock of history cannot be turned back. It is impossible to bring back that elemental perception of the world, even if we assume that history develops in spiral.\nTrue, some are still nostalgic for the childhood of humanity. But any attempt to return to it ends in disenchantment. Where are those bitniks, the children of flowers? What will await young Tolkienists? All games end where maturing begins. Indeed, any game is part of childhood. Through it we perceive ourselves and the world around us; we rehearse life.\nBut Halloween is a play at evil. And who said it is a variety of dramatic art, rather than another pop-culture myth provoking interest in some people only because of its appeal to a perpetual theme? One can try to participate in the staging of death, but then there is no guarantee that at some moment the masque will not become a face and the masquerade will not turn into a feast in time of plague. Marry-making about death may turn into tears.\nAnd the Celtic Halloween on the eve of the Catholic Hallowmas is grasped as nothing other than an agony.\nHopefully those who play at it realize that they play. Why do they play at it in the West? You better ask them themselves. Is it necessary to play at it in Russia? No. Because it is time that the attempts to turn the country into buffoonery should be stopped. Understandably, we have a vast territory and a great soul, but in this case it is clearly an excess. It is time that we should respect ourselves and cease to be buffoons.\nThe more so that there are too many episodes in the history of our country that painfully resemble a play at Halloween.",

        "raw_content": "what is hemp plastic\nTo understand hemp plastic, we first need to understand hemp. Hemp is one of the many names given to the Cannabis Sativa plant. Contrary to popular belief, hemp is not the same as marijuana, and actually has very little in common with it. Industrial hemp is grown for its long stalks and contains less than 0.5% THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the psychoactive property of marijuana. Therefore, it is not possible to get \"high\" from hemp. Industrial hemp is grown in abundance in many parts of the world and produces the strongest natural fiber known to man. Hemp as a raw material is one of the most useful plants on our planet with thousands of applications including a viable plastic material!\nHemp plastic is a bioplastic made using industrial hemp. There are many different types of hemp plastic; from standard plastics reinforced with hemp fibers, to a 100% hemp plastic made entirely from the hemp plant. Hemp plastic is recyclable and can be manufactured to be 100% biodegradable. The most common type of hemp plastics are those plastics which infuse hemp fibers. The benefit of infusing hemp fibers lies in that less plastic is used (less oil, less pollution) and a more durable, biodegradable product is created. Sometimes, the oil used in conventional plastics can also be replaced with renewable resource feedstocks including cellulose from hemp, microbially-grown polymers, or those extracted from starch.\nHemp plastic can be five times stiffer and 2.5 times stronger than polypropylene (PP) plastic. It also does not pose the health and safety risks associated with certain plastics that are reinforced with glass fibers. Hemp plastic has the ability of being implemented in standard injection molding machines with no modifications needed. Current research into this field has produced fire-retardant products in UL94 V-0, V-1, and V-2 grades. (Plastics Flammability Standards Explained)\nBio-based plastics and composites are already being implemented in a wide range of applications. The leaders of this plastic eco-movement are the automotive, packaging, and building industries. Estimates return a figure of about 500,000 tons a year of bio-plastic production and show two-digit growth in the European Union. Interestingly enough, the automotive industry is currently the biggest consumer of hemp plastic. Most of the plastic panels in foreign cars are made from hemp plastic due to its extreme strength and durability.\nTake a moment and look around you right now. How many things do you notice that are made from plastic? The possibilities for hemp plastic are endless!\nSource: http://hempwaterbottles.tripod.com/what-is-hemp-plastic.html",

        "raw_content": "A final vote, as lawmakers wrap up their careers in Congress\nAs the U.S. House left town for the year on Thursday afternoon, it was a bittersweet day for many lawmakers who were wrapping up their careers in the Congress, as they said goodbye to friends, co-workers and colleagues and looked back with a smile at their time on Capitol Hill.\n\u201cI won\u2019t miss the circus, but I will miss the clowns,\u201d chuckled retiring Rep. Ander Crenshaw (R-FL), who did not run for re-election after 16 years in the House.\n\u201cI\u2019ve got mixed emotions,\u201d Crenshaw told me with his trademark wry smile on his face. \u201cBut I leave with a great sense of accomplishment.\u201d\n\u201cAll in all it\u2019s been an incredible experience.\u201d\nJust over from where we sat in the Speaker\u2019s Lobby, the logs were crackling in the fireplace; retiring Rep. Joe Pitts (R-PA) sat there intently reading the newspaper, pulling his chair closer to the fire for what might be a final time as a member of Congress.\nIn that same chair a little earlier, retiring Rep. Scott Rigell (R-VA) was all smiles on his last day of real legislative work.\n\u201cYou\u2019re going to hear me clicking my heels!\u201d Rigell said excitedly.\nAsked by another GOP lawmaker what he was going to do in the future, Rigell cited a Christmas journal entry by President John Adams.\n\u201cAt home. Thinking,\u201d Rigell said.\nOut on the House floor, lawmakers were publicly noting some of their colleagues who won\u2019t be back for the 115th Congress in January.\n\u201cThe gentleman and I don\u2019t agree on many issues, but I think all of us agree that he\u2019s been an outstanding member of the Congress,\u201d Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY) said of the retiring Rep. Sam Farr (D-CA).\nhttps://cmgwsbradiojamiedupree.files.wordpress.com/2016/12/rogers-farr.mp3\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to miss you,\u201d Rogers said to Farr. \u201cThank you for serving.\u201d\nTwenty minutes later, the applause was for Rogers, who was wrapping up six years as Chairman of the powerful House Appropriations Committee.\n\u201cThank you all for your collaboration, your consideration, and your companionship,\u201d Rogers said, with a hint of emotion in his voice.\nBack in the Speaker\u2019s Lobby, I was keeping an eye out for one retiring lawmaker, Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA), looking for a last interview with him.\nBut Westmoreland had already headed home.\nI checked the voting records, and was somewhat surprised to see that Westmoreland had missed every single vote since the November elections, even though I knew he had been in D.C.\n\u201cAs crazy as this may sound, I don\u2019t believe in lame duck sessions,\u201d Westmoreland told me in an email, as he said he did all of his hearings and other work, but skipped the November and December floor votes in the House.\n\u201cI know it\u2019s crazy, but it\u2019s something I\u2019ve always said and I guess when it actually happened to me I had to either truly believe it or not,\u201d Westmoreland explained.\nLater in the afternoon, I was back as the House held its final series of votes. The Speaker\u2019s Lobby was jammed with reporters, many of us trying to track down more of those who would be walking off the House floor for a final time.\nOne of those heading out was Rep. Steve Israel (D-NY), who offered some simple advice to new lawmakers: Do something out of your comfort zone.\n\u201cFind a friend with whom you disagree, and get out of the absolutism that runs this place,\u201d he said.\nWhile we were talking to Israel, I noticed a commotion out on the House floor behind him \u2013 just on the other side of the door, veteran Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) was casting his final vote.\nHe was first elected in 1970.\nRangel posed with his voting card in the machine, while other members of the Congressional Black Caucus took photos \u2013 even though that\u2019s not allowed on the floor of the House.\nNow that the final House vote of 2016 was underway, lawmakers poured through the doors and headed for the exits.\nI shook hands with Rep. Xavier Becerra (D-CA), whom I covered for a radio station in Los Angeles when he was elected as a freshman in 1992.\nHis next job is Attorney General of California.\nBut there were also some lawmakers walking out who had wanted to stay on in Congress, but had been rejected by the voters just a month ago.\n\u201cFor me, to have the opportunity to serve for over two decades, has just been unbelievable,\u201d said Rep. John Mica (R-FL), who lost his re-election bid in November.\nWhen I started work on Capitol Hill in 1980, Mica\u2019s brother was in Congress; Dan Mica (a Democrat) left after the 1988 elections. John Mica (a Republican) was elected four years later, and I covered his entire career in the House.\nAs we finished our short chat off the House floor, you could hear the emotion welling up in Mica\u2019s voice. We shook hands one more time and said thanks.\nThe Congressman took a few steps and then offered one final thought.\n\u201cTake care,\u201d Mica said.\n\u201cTake care of your family.\u201d\nWith his coat folded over his arm, the Florida Republican walked down the hall and got in the Members Only elevator.\nHis 24 years in Congress had come to a close.\n< Astronaut and Senator, John Glenn dies at age 95\nSenate Democrats threaten government shutdown at midnight tonight >",

If you need a custom term paper related to the subject of Feminism or Gender Stereotype , you can hire a professional writer here in just a few clicks.\nAccording to the writers in chapter, \u201cGender Stereotyping And the Media\u201d, gender stereotypes are harmful to men and women. Gender stereotypes set impossible standards for men and women that lead to unhappiness, loneliness and possibly violence towards themselves. Stereotypes affect relationships between a man and a woman. Moreover, stereotypes dictate the behavior of boys and girls that lead to violence. Rather than combating gender stereotypes, our society reinforces stereotypes by passing them to the next generation and giving labels and names to the people who do not conform to the stereotypes. Hence, the dichotomy is that our society buys into the stereotypes that reinforce abuse, while tying to remove violence from our society.\nTraditional female stereotypes rigidly emphasize the belief that women must perform the specific role that are assigned to them. From a traditional perspective, \u201cfemininity is characterized by passivity and sumission.\u201d (Devor P.169) Feminine characteristics of passivity and submission allow women to best fulfill the role of a mother and a wife. Female stereotypes restrict women from choosing roles that are traditionally \u201cmale\u2019 such as a father and a husband. The humor that naturally arises in this context reflects traditional patriarchal notions of gender. As stated in Devor\u2019s text, \u201cIn patriarchally organized societies, masculine values become the ideological structure of the society as a whole. Masculinity thus become \u2018innately\u2019 valuable and femininity serves a contrapuntal function to delineate and magnify the hierarchical dominance of masculinty.\u201d (Devor P.173). Stereotypical masculinity, for instance, is portrayed as natural, normal and universal. This is a masculinity within which women are subordinated and are compelled to conform to their traditional stereotypes as depeendents. Collectively, traditional women\u2019s roles as mothers, wives, and dependents, limited women from having an individual identity in the male dominated world. For example, in Friedan\u2019s essay, \u201cThe problem that has no name\u201d, a woman states that \u201cthe problem is always being the children\u2019s mommy, or the minister\u2019s wife and never being myself.\u201d She is claiming that she has no identity of herself.\nGender and identity issues led feminists to revolt and \u201cthe feminist movememtn has done much for some women, and something for every woemn.\u201d Due to the feminist revolution, women, today, have the privilege to vote, get educated and work outside of the home. They have various new roles and images, which seem to abolish all stereotypes of women. However, the women issues and feminism today, have become more complex and controversial.\nThe impact of gender stereotypes on women, today, is that women have to be a certain way in order to fit into the stereotype. \u201cFemininity as role, is best suited to satisfying a masculine vision of heterosexual attractiveness.\u201d (Brooks 208). Female stereotypes portray the perfect face, the perfect body, and the ideal images that are attractive to men. Due to female stereotypes, women want to look like the woman on the cover of magazines or high fashion models that we see in commercials, in the movies, and on TV. However, the effect of such unattainable ideals is that many women are losing their self-esteem when they do not achieve the ideal. Some women, who do achieve the ideal, are suffering from eating disorders. Improper dieting and having low self-esteem are keen forms of violence towards oneself.\n\u201cfemininity is characterized by passivity and sumission.\u201d (Devor P.169)",

        "raw_content": "Movie Review: Goodbye Solo\nAlternate Title: The Odd Couple\nStory: You know that fable about the boy and the pony? It goes something like this - Worried that their son was too optimistic, the parents of a little boy took him to a psychiatrist. Trying to dampen the boy\u2019s spirits, the psychiatrist showed him into a room piled high with nothing but horse manure. Instead of displaying distaste, the little boy climbed to the top of the pile, dropped to all fours, and began digging. 'What do you think you\u2019re doing?' the psychiatrist asked. 'With all this manure,' the little boy replied, beaming, 'there must be a pony in here somewhere'. The main character in director and writer Ramin Bahrani's third film is that little boy - all grown up.\nIt is now, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where we meet the glowing Solo, a Senegalese immigrant who drives a taxi (mostly at night), is studying to be a flight attendant, has a very pregnant Mexican wife and an adorable step daughter, Alex. Life is hard, but filled with possibilities. William, a forlorn, 70 something codger, sits in Solo's taxi and offers him a deal. For $1000, he needs a driver to take him, in two week's time, on a one way trip, to a peak called Blowing Rock. Solo quickly assumes that William intends to end his life at that time.\nThe balance of the film is the story of Solo, William, little Alex, life, family, responsibility, loneliness, abandonment, remorse and hope. This film is a slow moving character study and I found myself more interested in these people than I thought I would be. It is melancholy, sad and hopeful all at the same time. I am, still thinking about these people.\nWatch the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5IGC59Q9y8\nActing: Souleymane Sy Savane as Solo, is absolutely mesmerizing. Bravo. Red West as William, was also perfect. Diana Franco Galindo as little Alex, is a scene stealer.\nTrivia: Director Ramin Bahrani, born in 1975 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is an Iranian-American screenwriter and filmmaker. His other films are Man Push Cart, Chop Shop and Strangers. Robert \"Red\" Gene West was known as a close friend of Elvis Presley and a member of the Memphis Mafia. He first met Elvis in high school where he was a year behind him. After Elvis' discharge from the U.S. Army in 1960, West was employed as one of Elvis' bodyguards. Over the years, Elvis bought West a number of vehicles as he became a world-famous celebrity. West also became a movie stuntman and appeared in 16 Elvis Presley movies in the 1960's. On July 13 1976, Vernon Presley, Elvis' father, fired West, Sonny West and Hebler from Elvis's employ after criticizing their heavy-handed tactics. The three of them collaborated on a book of their lives as Elvis's bodyguards which was published just two weeks before Elvis's death in 1977.\nOpening Titles: The film opens in mid-sentence. All titles are at the end.\nVisual Art: The film almost has a documentary feel to it and takes place mostly at night.\nSquirm Scale: Blowing Rock was scary.\nDrift Factor: I stayed with the film despite it's slowness.",

        "raw_content": "Movie Review: Herb and Dorothy\nAlternate Title: Portrait of the Collector as an Artist\nStory: I like films about artists and this terrific, fun, heartwarming documentary about two collectors and the artists they met, has it all. You may already know the story about Herb and Dorothy Vogel from 60 Minutes, Charlie Rose or many other articles about them over the years. But trust me, this film is a must whether you think you know them or not or whether you understand minimalist or conceptual art or not.\nHerb, now 92, was a postal clerk who worked the midnight to 8 AM shift his whole life. He would sleep a few hours and then start his day in pursuit of art. Dorothy, now 80, was a librarian who caught Herb's passion for art and they started their collecting journey together with their first piece in 1965. Dorothy's librarian salary covered their rent, food and bills. Herb's salary paid for the art they collected. With their modest means, the couple managed to build one of the most important contemporary art collections in history. The Vogels have redefined what collecting means and I salute them.\nThe film has fabulous file footage of the Vogels visiting SOHO when it was unsafe to wander around that neighborhood. We see them in artists' studios, galleries and of course in their cluttered one bedroom rent controlled apartment where over 5000 collected pieces were kept.\nThis film teaches us about seeing, about passion, about living a life with no compromises in the pursuit of art. The Vogels did not have children but were exceptional parents who nurtured, admired and supported young artists just as parents would do.\nIn 1992 the couple pledged more than 2,000 paintings, drawings and sculptures to the National Gallery of Art in Washington. Now, having amassed more art than could be exhibited in most museums, they will distribute 2,500 more pieces to institutions across the country. Check out this website for more on this program. http://vogel5050.org/vogel/index.htm\nOn a personal note, I salute the people who have collected my art over the years. I remember every one of you and appreciate your support. It is still thrilling to visit someone's home and see one of my own works displayed. It never gets old. My only complaint about this film is that the Vogels do not own a Judith Wolfe.\nWatch the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vma2T5luy08\nActing: The film's other asset is the many artists who speak about the Vogels. Talking heads include: Sol LeWitt, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Richard Tuttle, Chuck Close, Robert and Sylvia Mangold, Lynda Benglis, Pat Steir, Lucio Pozzi, Lawrence Weiner\nTrivia: The Vogels could not afford the piece they wanted to buy created by Christo and Jeanne-Claude so the artists came up with the idea of a barter. The Vogels took care of their cat, Gladys, while the artists were out in Colorado in the summer of 1972 exhibiting Valley Curtain. http://christojeanneclaude.net/vc.shtml.\nPredilection: I love films about art.\nCritters: The Vogels loved animals and have had cats throughout their lives. They now have19 turtles, lots of fish, and one cat named Archie Vogel.\nVisual Art: A virtual feast for your eyes.\nTheater Audience: Fairly crowded with art lovers.\nOscar Worthy: I would give it an award.\nBig Screen or Rental: I am not sure that you will find this in theaters widespread so therefore I would recommend a rental.",

        "raw_content": "Dinosaurs and ancient life images for Virginia Museum of Natural History\nTanytrachelos\nTanytrachelos (tany-trake-elos) is a small reptile common in the Solite layers of Virginia's Solite Quarry. Tany ate insects. It could both swim in water and move on land. Dinosaur tracks have been found in Virginia, including at the Solite Quarry, but no dinosaur bones have yet been found in Virginia.\nSolite Quarry \u2013 Pittsylvania County, Virginia \u2013 225 million years ago\nThe Solite quarry is the only locality anywhere in the world with a number of complete fossils of insects from this time period. Many of the Solite insects closely resemble their modern counterparts, and this site is famous for having the oldest records for many living insect families and orders.\nThis was once the site of a deep lake, and today numerous animal and plant fossils are preserved in layers of shale. These layers are represented in the exhibit by part of the quarry face.\nThe fossils are often the same color as the rock, and the fossils can\u2019t be separated from the rock, so Dr. Nick Fraser, who works at this site, uses a CT scan to examine the fossils. CT is an abbreviation for Computed Tomography. Physicians use CT scans to create 3-dimensional images so they can diagnose problems with brains and other organs and blood vessels. The lab experience for Solite will include an interactive where visitors can scan through the rock to pick out details of a fossil of a gliding reptile that Dr. Fraser has found at Solite.\nTanytrachelos.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Knowledge / Solar Photovoltaic System\nWORKING PRINCIPLE OF SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM\nConversion of light energy in electrical energy is based on a phenomenon called photovoltaic effect. When semiconductor materials are exposed to light, the some of the photons of light ray are absorbed by the semiconductor crystal which causes significant number of free electrons in the crystal. This is the basic reason of producing electricity due to photovoltaic effect. Photovoltaic cell is the basic unit of the system where photovoltaic effect is utilized to produce electricity from light energy.\nPV systems are like any other electrical power generating systems; just the equipment used is different than that used for conventional electromechanical generating systems. However, the principles of operation and interfacing with other electrical systems remain the same, and are guided by a well-established body of electrical codes and standards.\nAlthough a PV array produces power when exposed to sunlight, a number of other components are required to properly conduct, control, convert, distribute, and store the energy produced by the array.\nDepending on the functional and operational requirements of the system, the specific components required may include major components such as a DC-AC power inverter, battery bank, system and battery controller, auxiliary energy sources and sometimes the specified electrical load (appliances). In addition, an assortment of balance of system (BOS) hardware, including wiring, over current, surge\nprotection and disconnect devices, and other power processing equipment. Figure 2 show a basic diagram of a photovoltaic system and the relationship of individual components.\nBatteries are often used in PV systems for the purpose of storing energy produced by the PV array during the day, and to supply it to electrical loads as needed (during the night and periods of cloudy weather).\nOther reasons batteries are used in PV systems are to operate the PV array near its maximum power point, to power electrical loads at stable voltages, and to supply surge currents to electrical loads and inverters. In most cases, a battery charge controller is used in these systems to protect the battery from overcharge and over discharge.",

        "raw_content": "2018 El Paso Back to School Sales Tax Holiday Dates Set\nEl Paso shoppers will catch a break at the cash register on back-to-school items again this year thanks to the state\u2019s annual Sales Tax Holiday.\nFrom Friday, August 10 to Sunday, August 12, a sales tax will not be tacked onto your purchases of eligible items that sell for less than $100 each. As in previous years, eligible items include most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks. Not all merchandise, however, is exempt. Textbooks, computers, and software, for example, are not.\nLay-away plans can be used to take advantage of the savings again this year provided the qualifying items are placed on layaway between August 10-12, or the final payment on items previously placed on lay-away is made that weekend.\nThis would be a good work-around for parents whose kids are enrolled in a school district that returns to the classroom before Sales Tax Holiday weekend, or those who would rather shop now and avoid the crowds.\nTo that end, online shopping is another option. According to the Texas Comptroller website, qualifying items purchased \"from an online or catalog seller doing business in Texas\" during Tax Free Weekend should not be taxed either.\nA breakdown of clothing items and footwear that are exempt can be found HERE, and a list of qualifying school supplies HERE. On average, back to school shoppers will save approximately $8 for every $100 spent.",

The settlement would be protected from radiation, micro-meteor impacts, dust and extreme temperature changes by the lava structure that provides a natural environmental control with a nearly constant temperature of minus 20 degrees Celsius (which is what the temperature was yesterday here in Toronto, where I live), unlike that of the lunar surface showing extreme variation, maximum of 130 degrees Celsius to a minimum of minus 180 degrees Celsius in its day-night cycle.\nIn addition, lunar explorers would only need minimal construction, without the added cost of having to use expensive shields against the hazardous lunar environment.\nMaybe they\u2019ll call it Clavius Base\u2026",

The measures were a response to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from Mexico, Canada and the European Union.\nBut due to the country\u2019s high consumption of pork legs and shoulders, Mexico created a quota for 350,000 tons that could be imported without tariffs. It was not previously clear that the quota would apply to imports from the United States.\nThe United States \u201cwill be able to take advantage of the quota because the quotas are not discriminatory,\u201d the Mexican economy ministry wrote in response to a Reuters inquiry.\nOver the past 10 years, U.S. pork made up 89 percent of Mexico\u2019s imports of the meat, accounting for about a third of local consumption, according to the ministry.\nMexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo said this week that Mexico expects to import pork cuts from Europe to compensate for the decline from the United States. The import quota will be in force until Dec. 31.\nThe economy ministry also clarified that there will be a transition period for the U.S. pork tariffs for any shipments outside of the quota. Starting on June 5, the tariff on U.S. pork was set at 10 percent, and it will be raised to 20 percent on July 5.",

        "title": "Gardening for Wildlife | Landscape for Life",
        "raw_content": "As wilderness disappears and the human-dominated landscape expands, butterflies, songbirds and other creatures are left without places to live. Douglas Tallamy, University of Delaware entomologist and author of \u201cBringing Nature Home,\u201d has pointed out that we have already turned 54 percent of the lower 48 states into cities and suburbs and 41 percent more into various forms of agriculture. In other words, we humans have already taken 95 percent of the original native habitat. New development continues to eat up 2 million acres of quality wildlife habitat each year \u2014 an amount equal to the size of Yellowstone National Park. Natural habitats are damaged further by invasive plants that commonly spread from our residential gardens and by the overuse of fertilizers and pesticides that pollute streams and water sources.\nThe good news is that residential landscapes can be home for both humans and wildlife. We can share our landscapes with the plants and animals with which we have co-evolved. The first step when gardening for wildlife is to determine the priority species. Then identify the food, water, shelter and other resources each animal requires. Here are the essentials:\nProvide food.\nThe best food source is often a diverse selection of native plants. For the vast majority of native wildlife, most of the non-native plants we\u2019ve favored in our landscapes for more than a century do not provide sufficient food. That includes the insects on which 96 percent of all terrestrial birds depend. But when you plant native trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants, you provide wildlife with the nectar, pollen, fruits, leaves, seeds and nuts \u2014 and associated insects \u2014 that have nourished them for millennia. Space is limited in the typical home garden, so it makes sense to plant the natives that are the champions at providing food and shelter for birds and other wildlife.\nProvide water.\nLike all living things, wildlife needs water for drinking as well as bathing and cooling off. Water can be a scarce commodity in arid areas and in cities. Nature provides water to wildlife in a multitude of ways that the homeowner can replicate, such as a shallow in-ground pool or pond, water barrel or birdbath.\nA leopard frog at home in a vegetated pond. Image credit: Wildflower Center\nCreat places to hide, rest and nest.\nNative trees, shrubs, thickets, grasses, brush piles and man-made wildlife houses serve as home and shelter. For birds, all trees and shrubs provide cover, but none are better than evergreens, especially conifers. And the seeds in their cones are an important source of food for some species. As with other plants for wildlife, regionally native pines and other conifers are best, since they are more likely to host the native insects upon which birds depend.\nHomeowners should avoid the use of pesticides, which can harm birds and other wildlife directly or contaminate the flowers or vegetation that are their food source. To provide maximum habitat for the widest array of wildlife, it helps to recreate the vertical layers of vegetation \u2014 trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses \u2014 found in nearby natural areas.\nAll native plant communities consist of vertical layers, which are most obvious in forested regions. The tallest layer of a forest is called the canopy and is composed of mature trees. The highest canopy trees may be 100 feet or more, while the lowest grow to about 30 feet. The next layer down is called the understory. It is composed of saplings of canopy tree species as well as smaller flowering trees such as dogwoods and redbud. The understory layer rises from about 12 to 30 feet above the ground. The shrub layer is the lowest layer of woody vegetation. It occupies the area between 3 and 12 feet. The lowest aboveground layer of a forest, below 3 feet, is called the ground layer. Here, wildflowers, ferns, grasses and sedges grow in often spectacular combinations. Plants in the ground layer also partition their environment vertically. Spring ephemeral wildflowers bloom first, typically raising their foliage only a few inches above the leaf litter. As they go dormant, taller ferns and wildflowers grow around and over them.\nPrairies and other communities dominated by herbaceous plants also have distinct vertical layers. The earliest plants to emerge in spring are low to the ground. Each successive emerging plant overtops the next, culminating with the tallest grasses and late-blooming asters and other composites that end the growing season. The layers also extend below the ground, from fibrous-rooted grasses to wildflowers with deep taproots.\nIn general, the more vertical layers there are, the more complex the vegetative structure and the more habitat created for a wider array of animal life.",

In this way all are enriched by different cultures. In 2010 it was the turn of Cameroon. The theme the women chose was \u2018Let everything that has breath Praise God!\u2019\nTheir petitions reflected the problems of women and especially girl children in their country. Their prayer was nevertheless full of thanksgiving \u2013 for life, for the beauty and fruitfulness of the earth, and for the compassion and loving care of God.\nThe whole spirit of the prayer was full of joy and trust in a God who hears the cry of women. Participants were encouraged to wear bright colours and to join in the songs of praise.\nThis year several La Retraite sisters in England who had had personal contact with Cameroon were invited by different Churches to give the address.",

        "raw_content": "Want a joyful birth experience?\nThe Bradley Method\u00ae teaches couples the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve an efficient and joyful birth.\nNatural childbirth is the normal physiological process of birth with little to no outside interference (without drugs/anesthetics). Women who experience natural childbirth overwhelmingly love to talk about their experience to anyone who will listen and they do so in a way that reflects the joy that they have experienced. Trained coaches/husbands also love to give joyful recounts with amazement and praise of what their wives are capable of doing. Witnessing such an event puts into perspective the strength and importance of the woman he loves and supports.\nThe Bradley Method\u00ae\ufeff \ufeffsupports clear communication between members of the birth team. This lends itself to fewer complications throughout the pregnancy and birth. Because The Bradley Method\u00ae\ufeff teaches and trains a woman how to work with her labor instead of against it, a prepared couple is likely to have a shorter labor and pushing time with little or no tearing and less need for an episiotomy. Women who experience natural childbirth are left with a great sense of empowerment - ready to take on the incredible role of motherhood.\nThere are also postpartum benefits. The baby is alert and better able to breastfeed immediately, which leads to more successful breast-feeding. There is also a shorter recovery time, less risk of infection, and less risk of postpartum depression.\n\"In the absence of drugs & the presence of preparedness, nature is efficient.\"\nRobert A. Bradley, M.D.\n\"Husband-Coached Natural Childbirth includes careful physical and psychological preparation during pregnancy, and a carefully trained coach (husband/partner) to guide her every step\"\nThe primary goal of The Bradley Method\u00ae\ufeff is a healthy mother and baby. The FDA has stated \u201cNo drug has been proven safe for an unborn baby.\u201d Therefore, anytime drugs of any type are considered, all of the risks should be weighed carefully.\nOver 87% of vaginal Bradley\u00ae births are completely unmedicated. No other methods come anywhere near this goal. More about the difference\nFor more information on The Bradley Method\u00ae visit the official Bradley\u00ae website www.bradleybirth.com.\nAchieving natural childbirth takes knowledge (mind), skill (body), and trust (soul). Childbirth has been described as an athletic event, extremely intense, and the hardest thing you'll ever do in your life. These do not describe an event that should be taken lightly, but instead, one for which to prepare. Twelve weeks of education and training is the key. \ufeff\ufeff Learn more\ufeff\ufeff",

        "title": "Nennius, Historia Brittanum",
        "raw_content": "Nennius, the Welsh Monk - \"Historia Brittanum\"\nThe Welsh Christian monk Nennius wrote around 800 A.D. the \"Historia Brittanum\" which is the first publication to contain a mention \" Arthur\" by name as a hero. Well, Nennius was probably an early ninth century Welsh monk, and probably wrote it. Historia Brittonum (History of the Britons) is a strange assortment of texts covering the ancestries of kings, geography, the lives of saints. It mentions Julius C\u00e6sar, Ambrosius Aurelianus, Arthur, Patrick, and other figures. Nennius says he was a pupil of Elbodugus ( bishop of Bangor and known to have have died in 809)\nThe Historia Brittonum has been controversial as to its date and origin. Nennius has been described as \"unrestrainedly inventive\" with this work. On the one hand Nennius apparently had access to no-longer available 5th century sources, but on the other hand can Nennius be entirely trusted as a thoughtful compiler of history. Apart from his native Welsh and his clerical knowledge of Latin, \u2018Nennius\u2019 seems to have understood both Old English, and Old Irish.\nNennius made mistakes with dating schemes, people's names and genealogical facts. However \u2018Nennius\u2019 is nevertheless one of the earliest records of Welsh literature and history and his work is therefore very useful to researchers. The work may have in fact been compiled earlier by someone else, around the year 679. Then additions were made in following years, and Nennius may have then re-compiled the whole work around 800.\nTo complicate matters even further, the revision of Nennius does not exist in a complete form. The earliest existing copy is an Irish version made in the eleventh century by Gilla Coemgin. Some of the Latin copies have extracts from the original, including the preface of Nennius and some verses by him.\n\"Historia Brittanum\" is drawn largely upon Celtic legend, written or oral. Other writings which have been used include Gildas, Jerome\u2019s Chronicle and a lost life of St. Germanus of Auxerre. Geoffrey of Monmouth was later to extensive use of it.\nThe brief mention of Arthur by Nennius occurs when he describes him as being the British leader who fought against the Anglo-Saxons. The battle culminated in a victory for the Britons at the Battle of Mount Badon (Mons Badonicus). Nennius lists twelve battles with which Arthur was involved.\nNennius also mentions Arthur had a dog called Cabal, which had used to hunt boar. Nennius also mentions the burial site of Anir, the son of Arthur, killed by his own father.\nNennius also mentions Ambrosius, but not the same Ambrosius Aurelianus mentioned in the works by Gildas and Bede. This Ambrosius was another name for the boy that Geoffrey called Merlin. The story of Vortigern and Ambrosius (Merlin), the falling wall and the two fighting dragons are used in Geoffrey's works.\nIt has proved virtually impossible for modern researches to compile the life of Nennius",

Pearce\nborn: 2 November 1933, Stockton, Wiltshire, UK.\nto: Evelyn and Wilfred George Pearce\ndied: 22 November 2007, Melbourne\nEducation: St Hilda's College, Oxford, UK.\nM.A., D.Phil, Oxford.\nFellow : St. Anne's College, Oxford.\nStella was born to a modest family in rural England. Her father was a thatcher by trade. At school, she enjoyed tennis, and excelled at zoology, botany and chemistry. She became Head Prefect at South Wiltshire Grammar School and won an Open Scholarship to St. Hilda's College Oxford to study biology. There she gained a First Class Honours degree. She went on to study under the Nobel Laureate Niko Tinbergen to gain her doctorate, studying how genetics affected behaviour. She chose as her test candidates the Fruit Flies: Drosophila species. They have the advantage of having a generation time of less than two weeks, making it feasible to study changes of behaviour over many generations in a relatively in a short period. Drosophila also have a variety of complex courtship displays that were readily observable under a microscope. On completion of her doctorate she became a Fellow of St Anne's College Oxford.\nIn 1969 she moved to Australia, becoming a Lecturer in the Psychology Department at Monash University. She advanced up the academic ladder, intermittently acting as Head of the Psychology Department, and Associate-Dean of the Science Faculty there, being accorded the title of Professor and later Emeritus Professor.\nShe worked hard for the status of women in the university, and was Chair of the Affirmative Action Coordinating Committee at Monash.\nThroughout her life, she was in wonder at the complexity of the natural world, not just its physical attributes, but how animals (including humans) behave and how their behaviour develops.\nOn moving to Australia, she was struck by the extraordinary flora and fauna of the country. She coauthored a book in manuscript on the caterpillars that she found in her garden in suburban Melbourne, and circulated it at great length through all the local publishers, but none were interested in a book on caterpillars at that time (ca 1985). That manuscript became the basis of a website she co-developed on the biology of Australian Lepidoptera, which currently covers over 4,000 species.\nShe contracted Multiple Sclerosis in 1975, but did not retire from full-time academia until 1997. Even then she continued teaching and fostering postgraduate students up to a few weeks before her death.\nStella Crossley Prize\nFor the student who achieves the highest aggregate mark for the second year psychology core subects, Monash University.\nMS Society of Victoria\nRecent Publications Anneli Hoikkala & Stella Crossley,\nCopulatory Courtship in Drosophila: Behavior and Songs of D. birchii and D. serrata\nJournal of Insect Behavior, Volume 13, Number 1 (January 2000), pp. 71-86.\nAnneli Hoikkala, Stella Crossley, & Claudia Castillo-Melendez\nCopulatory Courtship in Drosophila birchii and D. serrata, Species Recognition and Sexual Selection,\nJournal of Insect Behavior, Volume 13, Number 3 (May 2000), pp. 361-373.\nLorraine J.

Listening in were, from left, interns Zoe Malin, Alicia McGowan, Nia Matthews and Justin Zion.\nHerald reporter Alyssa Seidman, left, Malin and Zion checked out CSHL\u2019s new $7.5 million cryo-electron microscope.\nFacilities Manager Dennis Thomas showed the Herald group the control room for the cryo-electron microscope.\nThe lab offers sweeping views of the harbor for which the community is named.\nMany of CSHL's buildings look like they belong in a New England fishing village.

For more, go to bit.ly/2Oe5IvO.\nEducators from the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences started to gather in Cold Spring Harbor in 1890 to conduct marine biology studies and hold classes over the summer, living in cottages and tents. It was a humble start to what would become one of the world\u2019s most prestigious research centers over the next 128 years \u2014 known today as Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.\nA group of Herald staffers and interns recently toured the 117-acre lab, walking its winding paths through garden-lined grounds to unassuming buildings that house some of the most advanced research equipment on the planet.\nEight scientists who have worked at CSHL have won the Nobel Prize, including the lab\u2019s director from 1968 to 1994, Dr. James Watson, one of the three researchers awarded the prize for the discovery of the double-helix, or double-spiral, model of DNA, the carrier of our genetic code. Watson later became CSHL\u2019s president and chancellor, before retiring in 2007. At 90, he still lives at the laboratory, often visiting his office on the Structure Lab\u2019s top floor.\nJessa Giordano, the facility\u2019s events and community relations manager, and Katarina Meze, a doctoral student at CSHL\u2019s Watson School of Biological Sciences, were our guides.\nMeze, 26, a chemist from Slovenia, began the tour not with science, but with art, stopping by a series of oversized, purple-aqua globules, attached at seemingly random points along a thick metal wire, to form one bigger statue. With a fluorescent sheen, the amorphous masses looked like they were made of plastic, but they were cast in metal. Some resembled raindrops, while others looked vaguely like seals.\nSculptures are scattered throughout the lab\u2019s grounds, creating an outdoor museum. This abstract piece, Meze explained, is intended to imitate a biological process. What might that be? she asked.\nA handful of guesses later, no one in our group had arrived at the answer \u2014 though intern Justin Zion, who attends Binghamton University, was on the right track.\nThe statue, completed in 2003 by Mara Haseltine, is titled \u201cWaltz of the Peptides,\u201d and illustrates the creation of a single protein by a multicellular organism, according to the artist\u2019s website. The piece shows how polyribosomes, specialized structures within cells, synthesize, or produce, the proteins that are vital to maintain organs and tissues.\nWith Meze\u2019s mini-lesson, visitors quickly realized that CSHL is steeped not only in scientific data, but also culture. It is a place where the imagination can roam free.\nNext up, Meze showed the group an 8,000-pound, $7.5 million cryo-electron microscope, as tall as the specially sealed room that houses it. It is capable of peering so deep within biological structures that samples are measured in micrometers. A micrometer equals one millionth of a meter. \u201cLiterally, you can see atoms,\u201d Facilities Manager Dennis Thomas said.\nSamples are transformed into glass-like structures by flash-freezing them with liquid ethane, eliminating any stray ice crystals that might interfere with a scientist\u2019s view of the samples, which are kept frozen while in the microscope with liquid nitrogen. Hidden at the molecular level, scientists believe, are secrets that might help them better understand the origins of disease \u2014 and of life itself.\nOne of CSHL\u2019s primary research focuses is cancer, Meze said. It has been a National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center since 1987. By studying biological structures at their tiniest, most elemental levels, scientists hope eventually to be able to detect cancer at its earliest formational stages, at the very moments when it begins to mutate cells and metastasize to ravage the body.\nMeze finished the tour by the harbor, at the water\u2019s edge, where caught whales were brought to process for their oil from 1836 to 1862, when whaling was the community\u2019s primary industry. It must have been a bloody scene back then. Today, however, the harbor is serene, with white sailboats anchored in its calm waters.\nOur guide ended with another piece of art \u2014 a bronze statue of Charles Darwin, the 19th century father of evolutionary biology. Darwin is pointing his walking stick, with one of his famed Galapagos Islands finches resting on the end, looking toward the harbor, as if he were planning his next journey to sea.\nAnd that is what science is \u2014 a journey, whether it is a deep dive into the internal composition of an organism or a trek around the world to catalog fauna and flora. For more than a century, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory has supported such journeys.",

        "raw_content": "Long Island's art scene\nLocal artists on view at Heckscher Museum\nWarren Infield finds inspiration in Long Beach, resulting in S.O.S., a work created with plastic, wood, cardboard, metal, photos, and acrylic.\nCourtes Heckscher Museum\nHeckscher Museum of Art has opened its exhibit space to Long Island\u2019s top artists as the latest Long Island Biennial exhibition gets underway.\nThe fifth edition of the juried exhibition, which features varied works from contemporary artists across Nassau and Suffolk counties, opened last week, offering visitors a look at a wide range of mediums and styles from the artists represented.\n\u201cThe Long Island Biennial is a perfect opportunity for artists to showcase their work to a wide audience, and for art lovers to discover the talent that is flourishing across Suffolk and Nassau Counties,\u201d says Lisa Chalif, the museum\u2019s curator.\n\u201cIt\u2019s great to be able to highlight the artists in our communities. Visitors can gain an understanding of the arts that exist on Long Island. It\u2019s such a thriving art scene here and we are eager to involve these artists with the museum.\u201d\nOver 850 local artists have participated in the exhibit since the Biennial\u2019s opening installation in 2010. This year, the museum received a record 351 entries with 51 works selected for exhibit. And of this group 38 artists are first time exhibitors. With so many new names in the gallery, the exhibit provides a unique and exciting space for visitors to see a snapshot of what is happening artistically on Long Island.\nThree judges \u2014 Christine Berry, co-owner of New York City\u2019s Berry Campbell Gallery; Robert Carter, Nassau Community College art professor; and Bobbi Coller, an independent art historian-curator, evaluated the submissions.\n\u201cThe art world needs as many venues as possible for new artists; this is so important and very much appreciated,\u201d says Carter. \u201cThe artist entries were surprising in how they varied in media use and subject matter \u2014 touching on nature, social issues and more. And, each juror brought their own unique perspective to the judging.\u201d\nThrough the Biennial the museum has deepened the connections among artists and between artists and the communities in which they live, according to Chalif.\n\u201cAs we\u2019ve become more established we reach more artists every time we do this,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s always very invigorating to see their range of creativity.\u201d\nThe artworks on exhibit present a lively cross-section of current artistic practice, including representational and abstract styles, landscapes, still lifes, and sculpture, with themes ranging from the personal to the universal.\nArtists on view include Naomi Grossman, of Rockville Centre, with her wire sculpture Connection. \u201cI\u2019m very pleased to be included in the Biennial,\u201d she told the Herald. \u201cConnection is made up of two female figures offering both love and support, revealing strength and vulnerability in a changing and uncertain world.\u201d\n\u201cMy sculptures are drawings in space, the wire, like a line drawing, changing in character from thin to thick. Wire reflects the female form which it has a tension (\u201cwired\u201d), strong and flexible, also delicate. Words run through the figures, sometimes legible, sometimes mysterious. Secrets are whispered, fears revealed, connections made.\u201dWarren Infield, of Long Beach, has contributed S.O.S., a a mixed media piece.\n\u201cS.O.S is one of a series of works created in my studio overlooking the beach and ocean,\u201d he notes in his artist statement. \u201cThese pieces, whether painting, mixed media, or constructions, owe a debt to the colors, changing light, forms, and tracks in the sand that I observed, as well as time of day and the changing seasons at the beach. The proportions and the relationships of sky to water to sand and the boardwalk directly influenced these abstractions.\u201d\nRiccarda De Eccher, of Oyster Bay Cove, is represented by Sassolungo, a depiction of the Italian mountain.\n\u201cMy interest in mountains stems from growing up in the Dolomites, in Northern Italy,\u201d she says. \u201cThrough my hiking and climbing I became an avid mountaineer. I scaled the Dolomites and participated in Himalayan expeditions, including Annapurna III in 1977 and Mount Everest in 1980. Later in life I translated my love of mountains by making them the subject of my art. I focused on watercolor also in the difficult large format.\u201d\nOther artists on view include Marc Josloff, of Freeport; Nicholas Alberti, of Wantagh; Mario Bakalov, of East Meadow; Paul Mele, of Island Park; Min Myar, of Bellmore; and Tmima Z, of Bellmore.As always, the exhibit experience is enhanced by related programming, featuring participating artists. Upcoming events include a Gallery Talk with Rachelle Krieger, John Cin and Alysa Shea on Sept. 16, 1-3 p.m. Meet and interact with the exhibitors who will discuss their creative process and artistic journey, and share perspectives about what it means to be an artist in today\u2019s society.\nDraw Out, on Sept. 23, 12-4 p.m., offers an opportunity to create with Mario Bakalov, E. Craig Marcin and Inna Pashina. Activities include painting by Heckscher Pond, docent tours throughout the museum and entertainment on the terrace, along with face painting and a bean bag toss for the kids. Additional programs include an Art Walk on Oct. 21, 12-4 p.m. with Roshanak Keyghbadi.\nWhen: Through Nov. 11. Saturday and Sunday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.; Wednesday- Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.\nWhere: Heckscher Museum of Art, 2 Prime Ave., Huntington. (631) 351-3250 or www.heckscher.org.",

Many routes in the affected areas have been canceled or will operate on modified schedules during some or all of that period.\nCruise ships have rerouted ships that were scheduled to stop this week in Bermuda, according to website CruiseCritic.com.

The city amazes, surprises, dazzles, inspires with its beauty, its diversity, its contrasts, its light, its climate (obviously!), its extravagant wisdom and its quiet exuberance, its conventional modernism (and vice versa), its urban vibes as well as the omnipresent nature.\nGwen Lafage invited Kirk Crippens (currently the Artist-in-Residence at RayKo Photo Center in San Francisco), Alan W George ( from Fayetteville, North Carolina), Esmeralda Ruiz (Six photos from Esmeralda Ruiz's series 3 minutes are also now part of Gallery Carte Blanche's permanent collection: 3 minutes on Gallery Carte Blanche.), Charity Vargas (who now lives in one of the San Francisco Presidio\u2019s historic houses and has photographed the Presidio and its changes since 2003) and Winni Wintermeyer (who was born in the industrial Ruhr Valley in Bochum, Germany, but moved to San Francisco in the early 1990s and lived here since then), she invited them to show their multifaceted San Francisco, from the vantage points of its residential homes, foggy vistas and neon-lit alleys.\nGwen Lafage is making her own way in San Francisco, making its Gallery a comfortable and creative home for art photographs, making Valencia and San Francisco her Home sweet Art Home.\nHappy Anniversary and Congrats!\n@ Gallery Carte Blanche\nwww.gallerycarteblanche.com\nOpening Reception: Friday, November 30 / 6pm to 9pm",

        "raw_content": "Sophia is a homeless woman who plays violin for audiences in the subway, eking out an existence among the urban grit and bustle of New York.\nBut one day her violin gets stolen, turning her world upside down and threatening her livelihood. Desperate and afraid, she goes in search of her most prized possession, but without her violin, she becomes truly invisible, unacknowledged by society \u2014 and is driven to desperate measures to regain any tenuous sense of belonging in the world.\nWriter-director Jared Rosenthal has crafted a powerful short drama examining what it means to be deprived and live in the face of constant scarcity. As a homeless woman, Sophia has very little in her life, but the one thing she has, she holds dear \u2014 not just as a means of making any kind of living, but a way to bring beauty and dignity to her life. Her violin is her identity, her only way of being something beyond just homeless and invisible to the people around her.\nWith intimate handheld camerawork, the film is not afraid to delve into the grit and difficulty of being a homeless. But it also takes great pains to record the beauty that Sophia brings to the world, making for rich contrasts in not just the images but sounds. Sophia\u2019s beautiful playing must compete against the clanging of the subway and sounds of the crowd \u2014 and the co-existence creates both dynamic and dramatic tension.\nThe film\u2019s foundation, though, is a terrific acting performance from lead actor Jenna Williams, who captures both the consummate talent of a violinist and the desperation of a homeless woman teetering on the edge of society.\nRaw and heartbreaking, this is a sensitive, considered snapshot of a turning point in one woman\u2019s difficult life. With strong storytelling and craft, \u201cSophia\u201d bestows honesty and empathy onto its subject, opening our eyes \u2014 and hopefully our hearts \u2014 to a character too often ignored by society, or shrouded in harmful stereotypes.",

        "raw_content": "Paris, France - December 19, 2018 - The European Commission has granted marketing authorization for Dengvaxia\u00ae, Sanofi's dengue vaccine. The marketing authorization follows the October 18, 2018, recommendation by the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) to approve use of the dengue vaccine in European endemic areas.\nDengue fever is a mosquito-borne infection that people can get up to 4 times in a lifetime. Dengue is also known as 'break-bone fever' since it can cause debilitating disease marked by prolonged episodes of high fever and severe joint pain. An infection can progress unpredictably to a life-threatening form of the disease called dengue haemorrhagic fever that often requires hospitalized care. Today, there is no specific treatment available for dengue.\nDengvaxia\u00ae will be available in Europe to prevent dengue disease in individuals 9-45 years of age with a documented prior dengue infection and who are living in endemic areas.\n\"In some of the European overseas territories where dengue recurs regularly, people who have had a dengue infection previously are at risk of being infected with the virus again,\" explains Dr. Su-Peing Ng, Global Medical Head at Sanofi Pasteur, the vaccine unit of Sanofi. \"As the second infection with dengue tends to be more severe than the first, it is important to be able to offer these people a vaccine that could help protect them against subsequent dengue infections.\"\nAccording to the WHO, the global incidence of dengue has grown rapidly in recent decades and it now threatens half of the world's population living in 128 countries.[i] Dengue is endemic in several European territories located in tropical and sub-tropical climates prone to outbreaks of the disease particularly during the rainy season.[ii] Earlier this year, dengue outbreaks in La Reunion resulted in more than 6,000 people being made ill by the virus, which is spread by a day-biting mosquito that often lives in people's homes. During past outbreaks of dengue in Guadeloupe and Martinique, more than 40,000 people reportedly contracted the fever.[iii],[iv]\nThe dengue vaccine has been evaluated in studies involving more than 40,000 people from 15 countries with up to six years of follow-up from large-scale clinical safety and efficacy investigations.\nDengvaxia\u00ae is approved for use in several endemic countries in Latin America and Asia where reducing the human and economic burden of dengue is critical. The vaccine is currently under priority review by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as it would be considered a significant medical advance in the prevention of dengue, which is considered an unmet medical need by the FDA.\nThis press release contains forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended.

        "raw_content": "2016 Election, Civil Rights, Trump\n\u201cWell, just so you understand, I don\u2019t know anything about David Duke. okay? I don\u2019t know anything about what you\u2019re even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists. So, I don\u2019t know.\u201d\nDonald J. Trump pretending not to know \u201canything\u201d about KKK leader David Duke\nThe election results from Super Tuesday show conclusively that a serially lying egomaniac\u2019s hostile takeover \u2013 or is it a leveraged lie-out \u2013 of the Republican Party is nearly complete. With an overtly racist appeal, Donald Trump has locked up the real base of the GOP \u2013 the \u201cbirther,\u201d nativist element that, almost eight years on, completely and comfortably repudiates the nation\u2019s first African-American president.\nHostage photo of latest Trump endorser\nAmid all the bombast it is easy to forget how Trump kept himself in the national limelight before riding down his Trump Tower escalator into the heart of the Republican Party. Trump isn\u2019t the original \u201cbirther,\u201d but he made questions about Barack Obama\u2019s birth certificate as much a part of his brand as the Trump-labeled suits that are made in Mexico. For months and months he was regularly featured on cable television, demanding that the president of the United States produce the proof that he wasn\u2019t born in Kenya. Trump demanded it often enough that the idea became imbedded in the temporal lobe of a significant number of Americans.\nSome of us might have concluded the whole thing was odd, or silly, or just Trump trolling for attention. What Trump was doing, however, is building the foundation for what his campaign has become \u2013 a race-based authoritarian hate parade that will likely take him to the nomination of a once great party.\nThe Founding Document\nNot all Republicans, and apparently not even a majority, buy the Trump-peddled nonsense about Barack Obama\u2019s birth, or that the only Mexican interested in the United States is a rapist, or that the country ought to blacklist a billion or so of the world\u2019s Muslims, but many of the Republican primary voters who are voting for the blowhard branding machine certainly do.\nNot since the 1960\u2019s, when Democrats largely repudiated their racist past and embraced civil rights, and the national Republican Party began to make calculated appeals to the sons and daughters of a segregated south, has there been a greater effort to divide the country by race than Trump\u2019s campaign. Racial politics are as American as apple pie and as old as the Constitution and, while the guy who hesitated to disavow the Ku Klux Klan may be clueless about many things, he wields the racial wedge issue as skillfully as he handles his blow dryer. The evidence is both obvious and completely distressing.\nThe Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), the respected group that tracks the movement of the motley (and growing) collection of white supremacy hate groups, reports that those groups increased their activities dramatically in 2015. SPLC has a stunning graphic on its website detailing the prevalence of hate groups around the country. There is likely one near you.\nKKK leader David Duke, the only man in the country Trump doesn\u2019t have an opinion about\n\u201cAfter seeing the bloodshed that defined 2015, our politicians should have worked to defuse this anger and bring us together as a nation,\u201d wrote Mark Potok, senior fellow at the SPLC and editor of the organization\u2019s Intelligence Report. \u201cUnfortunately, the carnage did little to dissuade some political figures from spouting incendiary rhetoric about minorities. In fact, they frequently exploited the anger and polarization across the country for political gain.\u201d Let\u2019s be clear; Mr. Potek wasn\u2019t talking about Bernie Sanders or John Kasich.\nIt is also no accident that Trump\u2019s biggest crowds are in the states of the Old Confederacy or that the first United States senator to endorse him represents Alabama. That senator, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, was once denied confirmation as a federal judge, at least in part, because former Justice Department colleagues testified that he frequently made racist comments and generally thought the Klan just wasn\u2019t all that bad.\nFailing to immediately disavow the support of David Duke, the white supremacy guru from Louisiana, should have been just another reason for a Trump disqualification, but, of course, it wasn\u2019t. Beneath all the analysis that Trump\u2019s appeal is really about rejecting political correctness or embracing an outsider is a cold and bitter reality. Trump could make his outsider case without resorting to demonizing by race, but that would not make his case complete. Make no mistake, stoking hatred based on race and fear is the heart and soul of Trump\u2019s appeal and it\u2019s working.\nWhite supremacist groups made robocalls for Trump in Iowa and another group has a daily podcast devoted to Trump, while an admiring writer calls the candidate \u201cour glorious leader.\u201d Trump\u2019s namesake, Donald Junior, is in the news today for granting an interview to a white supremacist radio show host in Memphis. When that decision was questioned, Trumpworld, of course, brushes off any suggestion of impropriety.\nChanneling his inner Benito\nTrump, the first real Twitter candidate, uses social media to identify with a quote by Mussolini and disseminate bogus data about African-American murder rates. None of this can be an accident for a man obsessed with building his brand.\nThe Trump Republican Party is not just enamored by a gold-plated con man from Queens, but is committed to his politics of intolerance. Recent polling finds that significant numbers of Trump voters want to not just ban Muslims, but also gay and lesbians citizens. They believe white Americans are superior to everyone else and want to keep the Confederate flag flying. They aren\u2019t sure \u2013 really this is true \u2013 that Lincoln was right in freeing slaves. The Trump Republican Party is truly the dark underside of America that has existed, unfortunately, since our Founders \u2013 the guys the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia celebrated as the font of all wisdom \u2013 decreed that black Americans were really just 3/5 of a person. (Look it up \u2013 it is in the \u201coriginal\u201d text of the Constitution.)\nSome Republicans, perhaps for understandable reasons of self-preservation, want to stop this crazy SOB before he completely destroys their party, but others are willing to embrace the devil because, well, that\u2019s what party loyalists do. But, actually, it\u2019s not was loyal Americans do. Give a hat tip to Nebraska Republican Senator Ben Sasse, a very conservative Republican and a very new senator, who says to Trump \u2013 no thanks. Trump assaulted the very conservative Republican governor of South Carolina, Nikki Haley, who has had the gall to point out his obvious shortcomings. Haley also happens to be of Indian-American ancestry, so one wonders why Trump has dissed her?\nDonald Trump is a habitual liar and a delusional self-promoter who has seized a fragile moment in the American experiment and tried to make it his own. He\u2019s a nut job about most everything that matters, but he\u2019s brilliant at exploiting fear and hate. He\u2019s appealed to the sizable minority of Americans who have never accepted the 13th Amendment to the Constitution and salted in a few more fellow citizens who might never admit it in polite company, but happily rant anti-immigrant, anti-minority and fundamentally authoritarian sentiments (with Fox News playing in the background, of course) while taking out the trash.\nIt has become a parlor game in the political media to try and identify the historical figure from the past that most closely parallels Trump\u2019s rise. The Harvard historian Niall Ferguson strangely suggests William Jennings Bryan, the prairie populist from the early 20th Century. But Bryan had a serious policy portfolio, was a serious fundamentalist Christian and actually got elected to Congress. Nor is Trump a new George Wallace, a southern white supremacist who never came close to winning nomination by a national political party. And Trump is no Barry Goldwater, a small government conservative who was wrong about civil rights in the 1960\u2019s, but also no hater.\nNo, Trump is in a class all to himself. Never before in American history has a man so devoid of real experience, so lacking in temperament and policy, been so close to leveraging his own intolerance into a presidential nomination. Never before has a candidate gotten so far riding a platform purposely designed to divide the country.\nIt\u2019s time \u2013 past time \u2013 to repudiate the fear and hate and racism, and most of all past time for more Republicans to do so. To paraphrase Madeleine Albright there is a special place in hell for the Chris Christies and the Jeff Sessions.\nIt\u2019s one thing to lose an election. It\u2019s quite another to lose the country.",

        "title": "Rain-Bullets Man",
        "raw_content": "Rain-Bullets Man\nLast week, I reacted to a story about a child who has learned to manage his autism through Disney videos, a story that spent a week at the top of the New York Times\u2019 most-read list. As it turns out, last week there was another story from another New York-based periodical that was also going viral (well, let\u2019s say \u201cprint-viral,\u201d hardly as important as the fake \u201cfirst kisses\u201d video) that was also about a father\u2019s communication, and lack of it, with his 20-year-old son who was also diagnosed on the autism spectrum. But if sweet, adorable Owen Suskind (the article concludes with Owen saying, \u201cYou can get so lonely talking to yourself, you have to live in the world\u201d) is some kind of yin, then the 20-year-old at the heart of the other article, Adam Lanza, is just about the worst kind of yang. In some odd recognition of cosmic balance, I want to spend this week reacting \u2013 as an autism dad \u2013 to another autism dad\u2019s anguishes and revelations.\nI hesitate now, because part of me hates to give the Adam Lanza story even one more sub-atomic particle of oxygen, partly because I\u2019m sure some people just recoil at the mention of the name, like they would to the thought of a \u201ctorture museum\u201d or idea of visiting Auschwitz. I do believe that mass murderers like Lanza desperately seek a notoriety that is otherwise difficult to achieve, and that by talking about them, we may be facilitating the next such horror. I don\u2019t believe anyone should have made a movie about Charles Manson or Mark David Chapman (but they did. Not favoring censorship, just saying I don\u2019t like it). The other side is that if we leave such people and events unexamined, we may be facilitating the next such horror. As Adam Lanza\u2019s father explains in the article, he is only making his first public comments since that unthinkable day in an effort to help the victim families and/or prevent another such event. And I\u2019ve been to torture museums. I\u2019ve been to Auschwitz. Man\u2019s inhumanity to man isn\u2019t something I ignore.\nStill, I hardly blame anyone for refusing to read further. And like the article\u2019s author, Andrew Solomon, I take no position here on gun rights or gun safety. For some of my more liberal friends, that will be a reason to refuse to read further. However, there is one sort of person that I wish to refrain from reading further, and that\u2019s the sort of person that believes that the Sandy Hook Massacre never happened or was ginned-up by gun-control supporters or something. I have a real-life (not internet) \u201cfriend\u201d who believes this. Now, it\u2019s one thing to believe that we never landed on the moon or that TWA 800 was shot out of the sky or World Trade Center 7 was demolished by something other than debris. None of those things change the amount of dead people or the basic facts as they relate to our history. But to suggest that these 20 kids are still alive somewhere, or were murdered in some other way for a partisan political agenda? (I refuse to link to sites that peddle this garbage; if you doubt they exist, type \u201csandy hook\u201d into the google search field and notice what the first fill-in is.) How disrespectful can you be to these grieving parents? Or as Peter Lanza said to Solomon, \u201cIt\u2019s real; it doesn\u2019t have to be understood to be real.\u201d Not unlike autism.\nSpeaking of grieving parents, is Peter Lanza a grieving parent worthy of respect? Depends who you ask. The article mentions the 26 stars on the local firehouse roof; Adam Lanza shot and killed 20 first- and second-grade students, 6 teachers, his mother, and himself. Some people say his mother Nancy was too lenient, too indulgent of him, and the massacre was partly her fault. I doubt this, but if you are someone like Nancy\u2019s sister, what a nightmare to consider every day.\nI was struck by this passage: \u201cAll parenting involves choosing between the day (why have another argument at dinner?) and the years (the child must learn to eat vegetables). Nancy\u2019s error seems to have been that she always focussed on the day, in a ceaseless quest to keep peace in the home she shared with the hypersensitive, controlling, increasingly hostile stranger who was her son. She thought that she could keep the years at bay by making each day as good as possible, but her willingness to indulge his isolation may well have exacerbated the problems it was intended to ameliorate.\u201d I considered how often my wife and I choose the day over the years. I haven\u2019t really discussed it here, but Dar\u2019s tantrums can be somewhat epic, and since he has no way of telling us what he wants (don\u2019t react to this with \u201chave you tried\u2026?\u201d because we have), it can preserve our sanity just to leave on a table all the foods and toys he could possibly want. On some level, I feel Nancy Lanza\u2019s pain.\nThis is where I hasten to add that autism did not kill 26 people in a school in Connecticut on December 14, 2012, because Adam Lanza did not have \u201creal\u201d autism, was only ever diagnosed with Asperger\u2019s (on the same spectrum, though that\u2019s evolving now), and as the article says, \u201cPeter gets annoyed when people speculate that Asperger\u2019s was the cause of Adam\u2019s rampage. \u2018Asperger\u2019s makes people unusual, but it doesn\u2019t make people like this,\u2019 he said, and expressed the view that the condition \u2018veiled a contaminant\u2019 that was not Asperger\u2019s: \u2018I was thinking it could mask schizophrenia.\u2019 Violence by autistic people is more commonly reactive than planned\u2014triggered, for example, by an invasion of personal space.\u201d\nPeter Lanza now regrets that he missed Adam\u2019s more sinister anti-social clues because he lumped those in with an Asperger\u2019s diagnosis (which Adam, for his part, never accepted). I can tell you that Peter\u2019s regrets pale before those of the wider autism community, who generally feel that the Sandy Hook Massacre may have set back 20 years public empathy for people with autism. Rain Man is one stereotype to deal with. Rain-Bullets Man is quite another. Or as Peter told Solomon, \u201cYou can\u2019t get any more evil.\u201d He added, \u201cHow much do I beat up on myself about the fact that he\u2019s my son? A lot.\u201d\nOn some level, I get Peter Lanza\u2019s pain as well. I sincerely, highly doubt that Dar is capable of a Sandy Hook \u2013 right now, he\u2019s not capable of taking turns or signaling the need for a diaper change, but he is getting more physical (moving glass bottles, scaring the dog), without understanding consequences any more than he ever has. Of course I\u2019m not going to become the father of a mass murderer, but I grok how you can try your best and still feel entirely isolated from your son, and then blame it on a diagnosis. During Dar\u2019s tantrums, I\u2019ve sometimes told wifey to let him be \u2013 I think I used the phrase \u201cThis is just the background noise of our lives now.\u201d Because after a certain amount of effort, you tell yourself you\u2019ve done what you can for the days and for the years. But did you? \u201cAny variation on what I did and how my relationship was had to be good, because no outcome could be worse,\u201d Peter told Solomon. What is Dar\u2019s worst-case scenario, outside of the absolutely unimaginable (like being mowed down in his school by some sick f\u2014)? Probably close to the Suskinds\u2019 worst-case, Dar watching videos in our basement when he\u2019s 50. When that happens, am I going to have a reckoning like Peter Lanza\u2019s? Sure, sure, we\u2019re not comparable, yet on the cosmic scale I think we are.\nI like to think that a future like Peter Lanza\u2019s is no more likely for me than it is for any of you reading, that severe psychopathy could come from anyone, and it wouldn\u2019t be any parent\u2019s fault. Clearly, films like We Need to Talk About Kevin and Elephant ask us to ruminate about this. Speaking of films, I know the Oscar-winning song says to \u201cLet it Go\u201d (I got it, really, I did), but in any parent\u2019s world, is it really that easy to let go and accept that you did enough?\nComments Off on Rain-Bullets Man",

        "raw_content": "The past few weeks have been extremely turbulent with the result of the EU Referendum and leadership wrangles in both the Labour and Conservative parties.\nIn the EU referendum, 62 per cent of the vote, Scotland voted overwhelmingly to remain.\nBut Scotland will be removed from the EU against the will of the Scottish people.\nAs a people we must consider all of the options that are open to us. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has already had meetings with EU Presidents to consider Scotland\u2019s continued EU membership.\nWhile Labour and the Tories are taking the opportunity to bicker amongst themselves during one of the UK\u2019s most uncertain times, the Scottish Government and the SNP at Westminster are the only ones with a coherent plan for taking the country forward.\nThere is also great uncertainty on the lives of EU nationals living here and British nationals living elsewhere in the EU.\nThere can be no doubt that they have made immense contributions to our local communities and wider society.\nI have therefore written to new PM Theresa May to make a statement to confirm the future of EU nationals.\nI joined the WASPI women outside Parliament in their fight for their pension rights.\nPensions are a contract; not a benefit, but the UK Government still refuses to respect their pension rights for which they have been working their entire lives.\nThis fight is by no means over.\nIn Parliament, I spoke up for Yvonne Mooney who achieved a bronze Olympic medal after coming behind a Soviet athlete who was later found to have been doping.\nThe UK Government must put pressure on the International Olympic Committee to remove all medals from any athlete found guilty of doping.\nThe long-awaited Chilcot Report has also been released highlighting the UK Government\u2019s catalogue of failures in the Iraq War. It revealed that Tony Blair made a premature commitment to go to war to President Bush before Parliament was able to consider the evidence, stating \u201cI will be with you whatever\u201d.\nThe report also found there was no plan to rebuild Iraq post-invasion and soldiers were under-equipped.\nWith its findings, we can now turn our attention to secure justice for the deaths of the 179 British service personnel and countless innocent Iraqis.\nOne of the most enjoyable engagements I carried out recently was opening the International Conference of School pupils in North Lanarkshire at the GLO Centre in Motherwell. The enthusiasm, knowledge and commitment of all those who took part was immense.\nIf these young people are the politicians of the future then we are in very good hands.\nWishaw Press was last modified: July 27th, 2016 by Jason Henderson",

It has been filmed intwo parts and the first is out at the end of the year.\nMatthew told the YEP: \u201cIt\u2019s not sunk in yet and I don\u2019t think it will until the last film is out in July 2011. It has been great.\n\u201cI played a character I thought was brilliant to begin with and it was good to play an endearing person that people really relate to \u2013 I related to him when I read the books.\n\u201cIt has been more of a challenge each year to bring a little bit more as Neville\u2019s character grows.\n\u201cHe has become a reckless resistance leader with no concerns for his own safety. He wants to do the right thing.\u201d\nMatthew has just finished an indie film called Sweet Shop with Gemma Atkinson, who was in teen soap Hollyoaks, which will be released at the end of the year.\nHe added: \u201cUntil then I am just looking for some more work really.\u201d\nSir Jimmy Savile also attended the launch to present a cheque to fund a research fellowship into the capabilities of the scanner.\nLeeds Teaching Hospital Trust\u2019s clinical and research lead for PET-CT, consultant radiologist and nuclear medicine physician, Dr Andrew Scarsbrook, said: \u201cWe are very excited.

        "raw_content": "Executive order takes aim at Clean Power Plan\nPresident Trump will follow through on his promises to roll back Obama era environmental regulations when he signs an executive order designed to undo the Clean Power Plan that was aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.\nU.S. EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt announced the move on ABC's \"This Week.\" The announcement came days after President Trump signed an executive order to permitting the Keystone XL pipeline.\n\"We've made tremendous progress on our environment, and we can be both pro-jobs and pro-environment, and the executive order's going to address the [past] administration's effort to kill jobs across the country through the Clean Power Plan,\" Pruitt said.\nE&E News reported that the order would begin the long process of unwinding the Clean Power Plan by requiring Pruitt to review the program, which cuts carbon emissions from existing power plants 32 percent by 2030. It also orders the Department of Justice to ask the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to freeze the legal challenge against the Clean Power Plan, effectively ending the government's defense of the carbon program.\nThe order is also expected to cancel the Climate Action Plan, while instructing federal agencies to review actions that restrict energy production.\nThe order itself does not have legal force to repeal the Clean Power Plan, but it does send a signal to EPA to begin the process of rulemaking and public comment necessary to rescind it. The administration would then have to prove that the repeal was evidence-based and not arbitrary, said Steve Silverman, a former EPA attorney in the Office of General Counsel.\nAgency efforts to terminate the Clean Power Plan could also be hindered if Congress follows through with Trump's proposed 31 percent cut to EPA's budget.\n\"If EPA is going to continue budget cuts, they aren't going to be able to do a new rulemaking process,\" said Kenneth Gillingham, an assistant economics professor at Yale University and a former senior economist on the White House Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama.\nThe \"bare minimum\" the administration could do to address the Clean Power Plan would be to simply repeal it, without replacing the climate rule with something else. In this case, the administration could take away funding for Clean Power Plan implementation in states but would still have to have funds to address court challenges to the rule's repeal, he said.\nWhile environmental groups have challenged a repeal as an assault on climate action, Pruitt told \"This Week\" host George Stephanopoulos that the executive order would help bring back coal and manufacturing jobs to the United States and would also help the country reduce the need for energy sources from abroad.\nPruitt added that technological innovations in the coal and natural gas sectors were largely responsible for recent reductions in the United States' CO2 emissions. He cited horizontal drilling for extracting natural gas as an example but did not cite any coal-related technologies.\nWhen questioned whether the move would affect the United States' ability to meet its commitments under the Paris Agreement, Pruitt said the Clean Power Plan was not \"tethered\" to the accords. He called the 2015 negotiations on climate change a \"bad deal\" since major polluters China and India do not have to take steps to reduce pollution until 2030. Instead, he said the United States should act within the framework of the Clean Air Act.\nClean Power Plan Coal",

        "raw_content": "NEW YORK, NY - March 28, 2017: Warner Music Group has announced the launch of RUN OUT GROOVE , a new fan-driven, vinyl-only record label. Each month, RUN OUT GROOVE allows fans to vote on the label's next high-quality vinyl pressing, chosen from three selections of either unreleased material, out-of-print material, or brand new collections compiled from the Warner Music vault. Initial offerings from RUN OUT GROOVE come from an eclectic group of artists including Echo & The Bunnymen, Golden Smog, MC5, Secret Machines, and Solomon Burke.\n\"Warner Music Group is home to many legendary labels - Atlantic, Warner Bros., Reprise, Elektra, Sire, Rykodisc and more - which have produced a wealth of expertly curated music over the years,\" said Billy Fields, Vice President, Sales, Account Management for WEA, the artist & label services arm of Warner Music Group. \"What makes Run Out Groove unique is that the crate-digging community is steering the ship. We are crowd-sourcing niche, but in-demand, selections from our vast vault to be pressed on high-quality vinyl, and it's going to be a lot of fun to see where the community decides to take us.\"\n\"I am chuffed that our fans came out in droves and voted for us and that 'Run Out Groove' are releasing our live-in-Sweden recording,\" said Will Sergeant of Echo & The Bunnymen. \"It's a historical document of another time, another place, another me and a very interesting stop off traveling the road map of the bands' life.\"\nHe added: \"I love the fact that vinyl is having an amazing resurgence and many young music fans are embracing the medium. I am an avid vinyl enthusiast and my vinyl collection is a route map to my life. Having a pocket full of mp3's can't do that when you lay them out on your bedroom floor like tarot cards. The cover art of an LP is almost as important to me as the music. With LPs you feel like you have actually got something worth having, to hold and read while you listen. I love the organic visceral nature of the record, a piece of plastic that can bring forth such wondrous sound when a diamond is driven along the spiral road. It's all pretty weird when you think about it, some sort of wonderful sonic voodoo.\"\nThe second RUN OUT GROOVE pre-order campaign - and the first to be fan-chosen - is a new live collection from Echo & The Bunnymen, It's All Live Now. Pre-orders for this album will close on Friday, March 31st.\nMC5 - The Motor City Five\nROG's 1st title, now sold out in pre-orders.\nEcho & The Bunnymen - It's All Live Now\nROG's 2nd title, voted on by fans, and now available to pre-order.\nFeatures classic live covers of \"Paint It Black,\" \"Soul Kitchen,\" and \"It's All Over Now Baby Blue,\" to name a few.\nSolomon Burke - Best Of Atlantic Soul 1962-1965\nIncludes such Burke classics as \"Down in the Valley,\" \"Home in Your Heart,\" and \"Everybody Needs Somebody to Love.\"\nSecret Machines - Now Here Is Nowhere\nGolden Smog - Down By The Old Mainstream",

        "raw_content": "Mass for Victims of Siege at Martin Place Homily by Archbishop Anthony Fisher OP at St Mary's Cathedral, Sydney\nArchbishop Fisher delivering his homily\nWe are not used to hearing words like \u2018siege\u2019, \u2018terrorist\u2019, \u2018hostages\u2019 and \u2018security forces\u2019 associated with our city. Yet for the past day and night we were subjected to pictures and sounds we tend to associate with alien lands. In a caf\u00e9 only two blocks away from St Mary\u2019s Cathedral, only one block away from the Supreme Court, even closer to the New South Wales Parliament, the Reserve Bank and the Channel 7 studio, hostages were pinned for hours against the windows and forced to hold up a flag which blasphemously used the name of God as a threat.\nThe distress was visible on their faces, as was the relief of the first five to escape. We went to bed hoping to wake to good news. But despite patient efforts to maintain calm and negotiate there were, in the early hours of this morning, flashes of gunfire, intervention by our police to save lives, merciful escapes, but finally death. Hell had touched us.\nOnly history will tell how much 16 December 2014 will affect our attitudes, behaviour, life-style. But today the heart of our city is broken by the deaths of two innocent \u2018hostages\u2019 along with their tormentor, the injuries of four others and trauma to many more, the paralysis our city has experienced this day past.\nOne of the deceased was Katrina Dawson, a mother of three young children and gifted barrister, presumably on her way to chambers for another day\u2019s service of her clients. The other, Tori Johnson, was the young manager of the caf\u00e9, likewise intent on serving his customers. And the third was Sheik Man Haron Monis the perpetrator of this nightmare. Much is still unclear about him, his motivations and affiliations, and we must avoid too quickly jumping to conclusions and pointing fingers.\nWe are used to living in a peaceful, tolerant, secure society in which people may enter a caf\u00e9 and order a hot chocolate without fear: I\u2019ve been a customer at the Lindt Chocolat Caf\u00e9 myself more than once. For such ease of living, such assumptions of safety, to be so radically challenged can be disorienting and harden our hearts.\nThe risk is that we become cautious, cynical, suspicious of our neighbours, or worse, that we turn on them. In the process we undermine what we most love about our Australian way of life.\nChristmas is around the corner and we have had a Christmas crib with well-lit Christmas trees, and a very beautiful laser light show projected upon the fa\u00e7ade of the cathedral every night. But last night it was in darkness. That is true to reality, as it is often is, true to the Gospel. In the middle of all the romance of Christmas, the astonishing Good News of God-made-man for us, the angels, shepherds and wise men adoring, the Gospel report that all was not quite as it ought to be.\nThere\u2019s suspicion about the pregnancy; the husband considers divorcing his wife; a mother nearing labour is required to travel a great distance; there\u2019s no room at the motel for them; the child is delivered in the squalor of a cowshed; in the Temple the proud parents are warned of trouble ahead; the family must flee as refugees to a strange land; meanwhile the King\u2019s men kill the rest of the little children\u2026\nSo the backdrop to the Light who will dawn for us at Christmas is in fact darkness. The Way, the Truth and the Life comes to people who often lose their way, to a civilisation sometimes more comfortable with lies than truth, to what is often a culture of death more than of life. The Christ is threatened from the moment of His birth until the violence of this world finally catches up with Him on the cross. And our world today is every bit as mixed up as it was at the first Christmas.\nThere\u2019s plenty of talk of human rights, the dignity of the person, equal respect and care. We are replete with resources, technology and know-how to help people through troubled times. Yet innocent people are threatened the world over and a little bit of what is commonplace in the region of Christ\u2019s birth has even come to Martin Place. Christmas, we think, is supposed to be different \u2013 but in a sense it was always like this.\nYet we Christians believe that the Babe of Bethlehem is the Prince of peace, God-with-us, God-one-of-us, God-saving-us. So why, if the Prince of Peace has come, do these terrible things keep happening?\nPerhaps the answer is in the first Christmas carol, when the angels sang \u201cGlory to God in the highest and peace on earth to those of good will.\u201d The God who saves still leaves men free. They choose whether to be of good will or not. The Christ-child proposes peace, again and again; He gives us the wherewithal to be reconciled and live peaceably with our neighbours; but in the end we choose whether to live in His kingdom, by His values.\nIs the joy, love and peace of Christmas really possible? Or do we have to adopt a more \u2018realistic\u2019 posture, more cynical and self-protective? Do we have to buy into the endless cycles of violence and recrimination? Do we have to take our own hostages? Reports have emerged this morning of the heroism of the male victim of the siege. Apparently seeing an opportunity, Tori grabbed the gun. Tragically it went off killing him, but it triggered the response of the police and eventual freedom for most of the hostages.\nReports have also emerged that Katrina Dawson was shielding her pregnant friend from gunfire. These heroes were willing to lay down their lives so others might live, imitating the sacrifice of Christ who said that there is no greater love than to lay down one\u2019s life for each other (Jn 15:13).\nNow spontaneous tributes are appearing in Martin Place and on the internet. Leaders of all religious, political and ethnic backgrounds are calling for calm, for prayer, for support for each other. Services are being offered for the victims, their families and friends.\nThe darkness need not overcome the light. Indeed, the Christmas-Easter-Christian message is: it cannot! There is something greater than hatred and violence. There is Love, that humble, self-donative Love that comes in the shape of the Christmas Babe, the Prince of Peace. He can soften the hardest hearts. He can convert the most hardened sinner. Come Prince of Peace. Come, O Come, Emmanuel.\nImage: Courtesy of the Archdiocese of Sydney\n\u2190 Global Climate Agreement Australian Bishops Delegation to Lebanon and Iraq \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Medical alert systems are alert systems that are used to call for help in the case of an emergency. These personal emergency response systems are ideal for the elderly, the disabled, expecting mothers and others who are in need of 24/7 emergency service.\nTypically, medical alert systems are used by people who need emergency care and assistance. A person who is in need of medical emergency support usually has the medical alert system on his/her person so that it can be easily activated by the press of a button. The medical alert system then automatically sends a message or signal to the emergency center and it is received by the person designated for emergency support such as a doctor, family member or friend. Immediate action is taken and the user receives quick medical emergency service.\nThere are several types of medical alert systems available in the market today. Most of the alert systems are connected through your phone line and are similar to an answering machine. A typical medical alert system is a console that is equipped with a very loud speaker and a microphone which will enable you to communicate with the designated emergency operator. Medical alert systems and products such as medical alert alarms, medical alert jewelry, medical alert tags and medical alert identification also work in a similar fashion. They are equipped with a wireless transmitter that connects with the console automatically on activation. The console then immediately calls for help. A trained emergency professional will then contact you through the console. In case of no answer from the user, the operator dispatches help automatically. Designated family members and friends are also alerted immediately by the professional.\nA medical alert system gives the user instant medical service throughout the year with just the push of a button. These alert systems assure you and your family complete safety and security by providing instant help in emergency situations.\nMedical alert systems can be used in any location including work places and homes.",

The Bulldogs used a 22-10 run to create a 10-point bulge, using full-court pressure falling back into a 1-3-1 defense.\n\"That defense, if you're not ready for it, can catch you off guard because we're long,\" Gulf Coast coach Wendell Weathers said. \"It's not something you see every day. Hopefully, we won't have to use that lot, but we went from a couple points up to 10 or 12 up.\"\nDedoch Chan (Fr, Rochester, Minn./John Marshall) had 26 points to lead the Bulldogs.\n\"He's really, really good around the basket,\" Weathers said. \"He's really good around the perimeter when he has an opportunity. He knows where his strengths are and plays to them.\"\nLaRaymond Spivery (Fr, Lucedale/George County) had 17, and Jaylen Peters (So, Pass Christian/Pass Christian) chipped in 15.\nDespite scoring a bushel of points, the Bulldogs have a lot of room for improvement on the offensive end of the floor.\n\"We've got to get way more efficient with our offense,\" Weathers said. \"We're out of sync with that. It's early, but we should be better than what we are. We didn't play so well and still won, so that's better than losing.\"\nGulf Coast had a couple of 10-point first-half leads they all but surrendered, then Carey ended the half on a 9-0 run to tie it up.\n\"I'm pleased we won,\" Weathers said. \"The kids played hard. We're just playing a lot of inexperienced guys who have to learn to manage the game. If we ever stop turning the ball over, we're going to be OK.\"",

Khashoggi deserves justice. It remains highly plausible that the Saudi prince was involved in some capacity in his murder, and that the Saudi government could now be covering up and fabricating stories to mask the truth about what happened.\nOn Friday, May's office said the prime minister stressed to Salman the importance of ensuring those responsible for the \"appalling murder\" of Khashoggi are held to account.\n\"Here, business prevails over questions of that nature\", he said in an interview.\nA Saudi dissident living in Canada has filed a lawsuit against an Israeli surveillance company, claiming its sophisticated spyware targeted him and helped lead to the killing of his friend, Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.\n\"It's a case that hits hard and is, as I've already said, of an unheard-of severity\", the Italian premier noted after a Saturday meeting with crown prince Mohammed.\n\"Rather than be robust, as she promised, we learned the Prime Minister told the dictator \"please don't use the weapons we are selling you in the war you're waging\" and asked him nicely to investigate the murder he allegedly ordered\".\n'Leaders should not just offer warm words against human rights atrocities, but back their words up with action.\nSaudi Arabia has said the prince had no prior knowledge of the killing.\nA bevy of top Saudi ministers and businessmen were holding talks on Monday.",

To say I wasn't pleased with them, would be an understatement. You know how it is. One's investigating one's own syntax and grammar for a set of abstract paintings, darling, and one pushes too f-ing hard. Tries to hard to advance the f-ing form. Makes a f-ing mess. I had intended to make a happy threesome of three-border, two-border, three-border but the colours mushed to greys and it just didn't work as I'd intended.\nIronically, they're three of my most popular paintings in terms of positive feedback, so what do I know? What I do is I learn from my mistake and realise that the show must go on. And by this, of course, I'm referring to the style of left-right linear-narrative painting. It was truncated (intentionally) by me so-called 'narrative' three-border device and my self-imposed colour schemes. The central of the grey-mush disaster-paintings had two clean borders, one top and one bottom. I saw this as release from the three-border prison. This was it, \"The eternal story,\" that these paintings should always have been telling. The one that has no beginning or end. The artistic equivalent of an anecdote, and I had it.\nAnd I was very pleased, having suddenly accident'd upon my own artistic salvation.\nPS: just noticed, 20x16 canvases in 2016 - perfect. Four more in this style to come; colours chosen, canvases on their way.\nINTROVERSIONS UPDATE: six done (above), four more planned (this time on a loose theme of skin/eye colour)... I was thinking of doing an Alien skin/eye combination, and maybe one of them still is. Maybe they all are. Who knows?\nJust added a new website for these paintings @ Mike Philbin Art",

        "raw_content": "Joseph Pilates was born a sickly child, suffering from such ailments as rickets, asthma, and rheumatic fever, near D\u00fcsseldorf, Germany in 1880. Due to his physical weaknesses, he was determined to overcome them through various methods of fitness and sport, including body building, diving, skiing, and gymnastics. He soon excelled in all of these activities, and by the time he was fourteen he was so physically fit that he worked as a model for anatomical charts.\nIn 1912, Pilates move to the U.K. where he worked as a boxer, circus performer, and a self-defense trainer to detectives. During World War I, he was taken prisoner of was due to his nationality, and was placed in a camp in Lancaster. As the war proceeded, Pilates was moved to another camp on the Isle of Man, where he became a hospital nurse and soon developed a fitness regimen for the other internees. He devised equipment by removing bed springs and attaching them to the walls so inmates could work out using the springs while confined to lying in their beds. After a flu epidemic that killed thousands, Joseph Pilates\u2019 fitness methods were accredited as the main reason none of these inmates succumbed to the deadly virus.\nReturning to Germany after the war, Pilates settled in Hamburg where he continued developing his conditioning regimen, working with the local police force until he was drafted into the army. He eventually became disillusioned with Germany, and in 1926 decided to set sail for the U.S. On the ship over, he met a young nurse, Clara, who later became his wife.\nHe settled in New York City, where he set up his first fitness studio at 939 Eighth Avenue. Not much is known about the early years, but by the 1940s, his methods of exercise became very popular with the dance world. By the 1960s, many of New York\u2019s most famous dancers became regular clients of Pilates, as well as actors, gymnasts, and athletes. One such client was George Balanchine, who also invited Joseph Pilates to teach the ballerinas in the New York City Ballet. Since that time, the Pilates method of mental and physical conditioning gained enormous popularity. Most recently, the public at large has discovered the benefits of this technique, and it continues to grow as one of the most effective core strengthening and lengthening fitness methods.\nJoseph Pilates was way ahead of his time. The original exercises, created by him in the 1920s, consisted of thirty-four moves. His influences came form his fascination of various sports and exercise methods from both Eastern and Western disciplines. What set his approach apart from others was that he brought a functional element into the moves that positively affected one\u2019s overall fitness, well-being, and daily life. Pilates never formalized his routine; instead he would personalize the moves to the needs of each individual client. Therefore, many of his followers continued to devise their own version of the Pilates system to meet the ever changing needs of clients, as well as to stay current with the latest in mind and body research. Thus, although the basic principles of the method are unwavering, the actual teachings now vary slightly in style, emphasis, and approach. Even so, his original thirty-four exercises are undeniably his forever, and should always be acknowledged as such by all teachers of this amazing and ground breaking fitness method.",

        "raw_content": "Protecting your business means everything. Protection from drastic market changes, protection from aggressive and hostile takeovers, and protection from bankruptcy, are some of the key reasons why you should get insurance coverage for your business. Insurance policies provide protection against the unforeseen while also allowing you to recover funds to make-up for damages to your existing business, if any. Thus, any small business owner worth their salt should take the time out for small business insurance.\nTypes of insurance for your business:\nThen term \u2018business insurance\u2019 covers a broad spectrum of policies that are meant to safeguard your business, its peripherals and its interests. Business owners can opt for:\nProfessional liability insurance will help you cover your business against unwise business moves that end up incurring loss. Any harm done to the future of your company from failure to perform on the projected level, can be covered up. Professional liability policies have different terms and conditions for different industries.\nIf you own a successful business, you must dedicate office space for the daily functioning. And if you own or rent or even lease a property for your business, and then it is imperative that you apply for property insurance. This covers you against any kind of loss incurred in the terms of equipment, furniture, inventory items, theft, etc. Given the fact that it deals with tangible property, you are also protected against natural calamities.\nIf you have hired workers in your staff, then you are liable for their well-being as well as remuneration. The liability for a worker\u2019s well-being concerns medical expenses, disability or death benefits. For any medical and health related setback to a worker occurring in context to working as your staff-member, you are liable to pay compensation. This accounts as worker\u2019s compensation insurance. This covers any long-term disability insurance as well, which the worker may have accrued as a direct result of being in your employment.\nFor many, starting a business from their home is the first step, as it is for many start-up businesses. Your business will not be protected in such a scenario by a homeowner\u2019s policies. Thus, additional insurance coverage for home-based businesses is a must.\nYour products can be anything from physical commodities to intellectual property. As long as you have products in the general market, it is important to get liability insurance for them. This protects you from consumer lawsuits, lawsuits from competitors for any number of reasons, product failure to meet the supply projections, etc.\nIf you are using vehicles for commercial purposes such as carrying your goods, conducting promotional, and so on so forth then you are also liable to bear costs should the vehicle come to meet any kind of damage. A well-chalked up commercial vehicle insurance will cover you against any damage to the vehicle.\nBusinesses incur losses all the time due to factors out of their control. Political strikes, natural calamities cause thousands and lakhs in revenue for companies across the globe every day. But why lose revenue for things that do not concern your business? Business interruption insurance policies protect you against any such exterior scruples.\nConsult Mindtrust:\nMindtrust understands the various needs of your small business. We offer consultation to small-business owners for any or all of these insurance policies applicable. Contact us today, for further information on this matter.",

        "title": "Public Houses in East & West Molesey - Royal Oak",
        "raw_content": "The Royal Oak is one of the most prolific of English inn names, as well as one of the most historic. Its romantic sign swings outside nearly eight hundred houses throughout the kingdom. It is common knowledge that the name commemorates the escape of Charles the second after the Battle of Worcester in 1651, when he hid in the celebrated Boscobel Oak, and successfully evaded capture just above the very noses of Cromwell's pursuing Ironsides.\nFollowing the restoration of the monarchy innkeepers demonstrated their loyalty by naming their houses after the symbol of the event which made it all possible.\nThe landlord of West Molesey's inn was in the van of this upsurge of popular feeling and promptly altered the name of his pub to suit the changing times. For we know it was called the Royal Oak as early as 1669 [127], which was only nine years after the Restoration. By this action he not only showed his allegiance to the crown, but also his fealty to the lord of the manor, Thomas Brend, who had recently been invested with the Order of the Royal Oak, an honour of chivalry inaugurated by the restored monarch but abandoned after a short time [128].\nBefore this the house was known as the White Hart. Also a very popular name for inns and taverns. A white hart, collared and chained in gold, is a device of great antiquity. It was certainly in use in Roman times, and was employed by Richard the second as his personal badge. His army wore it displayed on the front of their jerkins, and publicans proudly painted it on their inn-signs, as an indication of their support. Many White Hart inns date from this time.\nIn 1636 the landlord of the White Hart at \"Little Moulesey\" was called Parnell Nightingale [129]. The Nightingales were a yeoman family holding considerable sway in West Molesey. Their descendants continued to live in the village right up to the present century, and Nightingale Road is named after them.\nRobert Curtis, the man probably responsible for the change in the inn's name, was also a man of influence in the parish. His name appears several times as a witness to other people's wills [130].\nAt the time when there was a desperate shortage of small change, he had his own coins minted. Official money of the realm, especially in small denominations, halfpennies and farthings, was in extremely short supply during the seventeenth century, and normal business became practically impossible to transact. Tradesmen found it necessary, therefore, to strike their own coins, usually referred to as tokens, in order to provide change for their customers. With the use of these tokens, trade could proceed as normal. But the issuers were honour bound to redeem their own coins for national currency if demanded. However, the majority of the regulars probably spent them at the same pub at the next available opportunity.\nThe token issued by Curtis was a silver halfpenny, inscribed on the obverse: \"ROBART CORTES OF WEST MOLSEY - HIS HALFE PENY\"; and on the reverse was the representation of an oak tree and three crowns, with the words: \"THE RYALL OCKE 1669\" [131].\nToken issuers were permitted by law only to mint in silver, therefore, the coins being of such small denominations were absolutely miniscule in size, and were very prone to get lost.\nThe Royal Oak next appears on the scene in 1752, when the building was insured against fire. The records of the Hand-in-Hand Insurance Society, with whom the policy was taken out, give a good idea of the structure as it existed at the time.\nIt was of timber construction, of three portions, each of two stories high, with garrets over one part. The ground sizes of the three portions were, 36 feet by 18 feet, 20 feet by 17 feet, and 13 feet by 10 feet, respectively. Besides which there were external buildings consisting of: a shuffle board room, for the entertainment of the customers, 27 feet by 12 feet; a back room, 15 feet by 14 feet; and a wash-house, 12 feet by 12 feet. All amounting to a total value of two hundred and fifty pounds. It was described as being \"on ye North side of ye Road at Moulsey aforesaid in ye parish aforesaid standing clear of other Building being the Royal Oak Alehouse in ye possn. of Saml. Noble\". The policy was paid for by Robert Thomas of Highgate, who was than the owner of this and other property in West Molesey [132].\nThe policy lapsed in 1758, but within two years another had been taken out with the same company in somewhat similar terms, although the total value of the property was entered at the greatly reduced figure of one hundred and fifty pounds. What was before called the back room is now designated a brewhouse, an interesting reminder that in the eighteenth century the Oak brewed its own beer [133].\nThe ownership of the property had by then been acquired by Nathaniel Winch, a distiller living in Hampton (who was probably a relative of Robert Thomas), on whose death in 1775 it passed in trust for the benefit of his \"dear wife Catherine\" [134]. The trustee named in the will, Charles Causton, was Robert Thomas's son-in-law. He lived until 1811, and the inn was then sold, probably to the Kingston brewery firm run by the Rowlls family, who were subsequently named as the owners. However, as Mr. Causton had died intestate, his executors did not realise that the estate was owned by copyhold and not freehold. So no record of the transaction was entered into the manor court rolls, and therefore, strictly speaking the property was not legally conveyed, In fact, it was not until 1857, after the brewery had been sold to W.F. Hodgson, and the various premises belonging to the firm were being transferred, that the omission was discovered, and Rowlls found that he held no proper title to the Royal Oak at all [135].\nTo legitimise the situation it was necessary to locate Charles Causton's legal heir, who was still on paper the lawful owner. This turned out to be his great-grandson, Thomas Lilford Neil Causton, and on 5 September 1857 a manorial court was held at which he was officially admitted to the property, and which he immediately surrendered to Hodgson. Although the latter transaction was not finally enrolled on the manor court records until December 1860 [136].\nHodgson took prompt action to prevent such an occurrence from happening again, and in 1861 he purchased an award of enfranchisement from the lords of the manor which gave him the freehold of the property [137].\nIt was probably soon after Hodgson had taken over the property that the old wooden inn was demolished and the present unpretentious brick building erected.\nHodgson's Kingston Brewery Company was eventually merged with the Courage group, who are the present owners of the Royal Oak.\nAs in most places, being a well-established inn on the main road through the village, the Royal Oak soon became the posting place for the royal mails. In 1845 we find that the post arrived from London at a quarter past eight in the morning, and was immediately delivered around the village. Letters could be posted at the inn during the day until a quarter past six in the evening, but late postings could be accepted until half past six on payment of an extra one penny each [138].\nIn the same year we also find that the Royal Oak was the station for passengers wishing to board the omnibus which ran daily (except Sundays) between Addlestone and London, calling at West Molesey on the way, at nine o'clock and returning at a quarter past six in the evening. Besides which, every other day, the carrier, William James from Weybridge, with his lumbering van, called to pick up packages. Travelling to town on Tuesdays and Fridays, and returning on Wednesdays and Saturdays [139].\nIn 1883 Mrs. Matilda Houstoun, a lady who had gained a moderate literary fame in Victorian England, recalled the days of her youth when she had lived in the house which is now the West Molesey Vicarage, and wrote: \"Within a stone's throw of the 'mossy, mouldering wall' that surrounded the graveyard, stood a hostelry of good repute, from the door of which tipsy men and slovenly idle women were never seen to emerge\" [140].\nLicensees include:-\n1636 - Parnell Nightingale\n1664 - Robert Curtis\n1697 - Paul Johnson\n1699 - Thomas Buss\n1752 - Samuel Nobles\n1756 - Willmot Nobles\n1760 - Daniel Redford\n1794 - James Draper\n1822 - John Edwards\n1844 - Francis Edmonds\n1848 - George Licquorish\n1853 - James Larkman\n1855 - H. Jacobs\n1857 - Mr. Griffen\n1859 - William Soppitt\n1860 - R. Newland\n1862 - Edward Castle\n1873 - Richard Rope\n1888 - George Egerton\n1893 - James Skinner\n1893 - James Bouchier\nROBERT CURTIS: In 1664 his house was assessed for four hearths, under a tax levied on the number of fire places [141]. In 1663 and 1664 he was elected to the office of churchwarden, a post which he obviously undertook with little relish, as during the latter year he appeared three times before the magistrates for obstinately refusing to fulfil his statutory duties in collecting the rates and paying them to the county authorities for the maintenance of bridges, gaols, and hospitals [142]. On 13 February 1678, \"being in perfect memory and remembrance praised be God\", he made his will, in which, after asking for his body \"to be buried in Christian buriall in the graveyard of Westmoulsey\", he left all his freehold houses and lands in West Molesey to a Thomas Fisher of Kingston [143].\nPAUL JOHNSON: THOMAS BUSS: The wills of both these gentlemen describe them as victuallers and as living in West Molesey. As it is unlikely that there was another inn in the village at that time they have been included in this list as landlords of the Royal Oak [144].\nSAMUEL NOBLES: Was living at West Molesey as early as 1734, when his daughter was baptised [145], but whether he was the landlord of the Oak at that time is uncertain. He was buried in the churchyard in 1753 [146].\nWILLMOT NOBLES: Was the widow of the above. She died in May 1758 [147]. In her will she expressed the desire that her daughter, Mary, \"wife of Daniel Redford should have the house that I now live in\" [148].\nDANIEL REDFORD: Came from Teddington and married the daughter of the two foregoing [149]. He inherited the inn in the right of his wife on the death of his mother-in-law. He was churchwarden five times between 1778 and 1793.\nFRANCIS EDMONDS: Died in 1848, his white headstone still survives in the churchyard.",

        "title": "Workplace ethics serious challenge to businesses - Mississippi Business Journal",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb NEWS \u00bb Workplace ethics serious challenge to businesses\n`...character, in the long run, will...`\nWorkplace ethics serious challenge to businesses\nIn a recent \u201cClose To Home\u201d cartoon, personnel manager Boyd Dinkins, as a test of character, vowed to hire only those applicants who dared to tell him about a piece of spinach on his lip. One blubbering candidate referred to taking a job \u201cteaching spinach\u2026I mean Spanish,\u201d but apparently didn\u2019t pass the test. Have ethics left the workplace? Are you lying to C.Y.A.?\n\u201cAbsolutely,\u201d said Dr. Ronald E. Drabman, director of training and psychology programs at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. \u201cRight now, you\u2019re seeing people achieving the ends they want and justifying the means. Everybody does it. Look at the legislature. What they just recently did (by boosting their retirement packages) was cheating, wouldn\u2019t you say? When you see so much of it, people are somewhat desensitized to it and don\u2019t necessarily see it as a bad thing.\u201d\nHarold Ingram, president of PerforMax, Inc., a medical staffing service in Jackson, said the lack of workplace ethics is one of the most disturbing problems facing organizations today.\n\u201cOur society seems to now reflect some of the philosophies introduced in the \u201860s & \u201870s,\u201d Ingram said. \u201cIt appears that \u2018situational ethics\u2019 is now the norm. In other words, the situation determines whether or not the response is acceptable. Many organizations have slowly drifted away from principles to guide them and we humans have the most amazing ability to rationalize. Therefore, we can justify almost every action we take because we feel the circumstances were so unique to us that our action was reasonable and correct.\u201d\n`YOU OWE ME` MENTALITY AT WORK\nDanny E. Daniel of Behavioral Health Specialists in Ridgeland, said society has developed an entitlement philosophy of life that spills over into the work environment.\n\u201cSociety has adopted a sort of \u2018you owe it to me\u2019 philosophy which eliminates the usual guilt associated with dishonest words and actions,\u201d Daniel said. \u201cIn addition, the widespread use of alcohol and drugs in the workplace has dulled the moral conscience to issues of right and wrong resulting in employee theft and poor performance. Employee assistance programs can assist organizations by providing an employee and his family a confidential resource in dealing with many of these critical issues which effect not only the company, but the employee\u2019s performance on the job.\u201d\nManagement experts concur that trust in the workplace has been eroding for the last two decades, primarily because of layoff and acquisition binges and the expedited pace of change.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a two-way street,\u201d said Drabman. \u201cPeople are less loyal to employers and employers are less loyal to people. Clearly, people in the current generation have more jobs in their lifetime. The loyalty is more to themselves and their families than to their employers. And they feel less loyalty from their employers.\u201d\nGUILT? WHAT GUILT?\nThe real change is that people generally don\u2019t feel guilty about being dishonest, Drabman said.\n\u201cIf you ask people if honesty is the best policy, they\u2019ll say \u2018yes, of course\u2019,\u201d he said. \u201cBut if you look at their actions, that doesn\u2019t seem to be the case and they don\u2019t seem to feel guilty about it.\u201d\nResearch has revealed another alarming trend \u2014 tolerated cheating, Drabman said.\n\u201cIn surveys of students from elementary to college level, we\u2019re seeing an enormous amount of cheating,\u201d he said. \u201cSignificantly, there seems to be an enormous amount of toleration. In the past, people who cheated felt it was a bad thing. Now, we\u2019re seeing more signs of people that don\u2019t consider it important.\u201d\nThe introduction of corporate ethics officers and the offering of business ethics courses on college campuses have occurred because people have lost a common ethical base, Ingram said.\n\u201cIt seems that the modern mantra is that \u2018the ends do justify the means and it\u2019s only important if it\u2019s important to me,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cIt is apparent that we are having some difficulty in developing our value systems. In fact, there is no basis from which our society draws to establish a common value system. With the emphasis on the individual, the individual\u2019s rights and concern about the individual, there naturally is a de-emphasis on the universal issues. Without strong ethics guiding an organization and its employees, there can be little trust within that organization, which is the basis for much of an organization\u2019s long term success.\u201d\nLACK OF TRUST CAN LEAD TO FAILURE\nTrust is such a critical element in the workplace that some new management approaches include restructuring the office from the traditional hierarchical approach to a self-directed team approach, Ingram said.\n\u201cEach organization has a personality that is comprised of both the people of the organization and the values they espouse,\u201d he said. \u201cValues provide the platform from which ethics are derived. It is from our commitment to our values and principles that we develop character. And character, in the long run, will probably be the most important defining characteristic of a company.\u201d\nMany businesses have failed because of unethical behavior, Ingram said.\n\u201cI\u2019ve experienced the damage employees can have within an organization with unethical behavior,\u201d he said. \u201cI have also seen the failure of individuals and organizations that have been unethical in their dealings with customers. With the many different types of people in America, and even our state, we are experiencing challenges to the Judeo-Christian based value system. Without a common value system with \u2018absolutes,\u2019 I fear we may one day evolve into a society with one guiding principle \u2014 profit. It does not matter who gets hurt if profits are made.\u201d\nNext: SuperCenters have super impact",

        "title": "How To Stop Water From Leaking In Your Air Conditioner - Boosting Quality: An HVAC Blog",
        "raw_content": "How To Stop Water From Leaking In Your Air Conditioner\nFirst of all, do not fret when you see water dripping from your air conditioner because air conditioners are wired to cool air by condensation. Hence the water may come from the condensed air, which also indicates that the A/C is doing its work properly. This means that at some point (when the air is cooled enough), the condensation process is supposed to reduce or stop. Hence, you should start to worry about your a/c if the dripping continues for a long period of time, say for more than one day. It could be an indication of a deeper problem in the air conditioner. Here is how you can deal with the issue\nThe purpose of the air filter is to clear dirt from the air before the air enters into the a/c. A dirty or a clogged filter, however, can no longer do that. Its malfunction causes the cold evaporator coils of the a/c to freeze and allow the formation of ice. When the ice melts, water starts to drip. The solution is to find the filter and inspect it for dirt. If it is too jammed, replace it. In fact, filters are meant to be used for one to two months before they are replaced.\nCheck The Overflow Pan\nAfter the A/C has sucked heat and humidity from the air, the warm air is passed through cold evaporator coils for cooling and condensation. The condensed water then flows to a drain pan before it passes through a condensate drain line and finally to a pipe outside your house. Hence if the overflow pan or drain pan fails to catch the condensed water, the water will have no choice but to seek other routes. And that is why you may see it dripping from your a/c unit. To fix the problem, find the overflow pan first and inspect it for damage. You can easily see the pan with the help of a flashlight it is located underneath the coils. If you are seeing cracks or holes in the pan, patch them up with epoxy glue or consider replacing the entire pan.\nIf the problem is not the filter or the overflow pan, there is only one part remaining that can cause the leak: the condensate drain pipe. This is the pipe that leads the water out of the pan and out of the a/c. If it clogged, it will force water back to the pan after which the water will have no choice but to drip on the floor. Try to bleach the line to remove the clog.",

        "title": "Melting Ice, Thawing Relations: How International Law Can Ensure Peace In The Arctic \u2013 NAOC",
        "raw_content": "Melting Ice, Thawing Relations: How International Law Can Ensure Peace In The Arctic\nEmerging Security June 15, 2018 Aidan Simardone\nThe Arctic is changing rapidly and the effects are clear. Retreating glaciers are threatening coastal cities with high sea levels. Shrinking sea ice is decimating the polar bear population. Increasing temperatures are disrupting indigenous peoples\u2019 hunting. Disappearing permafrost is releasing once-frozen carbon dioxide, further exacerbating these effects. The melting of the Arctic is a situation that everyone wants to avoid.\nFor the six states bordering the Arctic Ocean\u2014Canada, Denmark via Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Russia and the United States via Alaska\u2014the changing Arctic is not only a challenge but also an opportunity. Shrinking sea ice allows for the exploitation of gas and oil. New trade routes are opening that shorten shipping time. For this reason, these states are competing fiercely to gain territorial control of the Arctic Ocean. With claims often overlapping, peace in the Arctic is under threat. If states wish to avoid conflict, they must act now to resolve their differences through international law.\nThe United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) sets out how states can claim the ocean as part of their territory. States have full control of 12 nautical miles (nm) beyond the coastline, with an additional 12 nm subject to certain limitations. In addition, states can claim an exclusive economic zone (EEZ), an area that extends 200 nm from the coastline and allows for the exploitation of resources below the water. States can also claim the continental shelf up to 350 nm from the coastline or 100 nm from areas that are less than 2,500 m deep. A state can exploit resources there as long as a share of the revenue is given to the International Seabed Authority.\nDue to the greater complexity of the continental shelf, claims must be submitted to the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS). Where there is an overlap for any claim to territory, states for can resolve their dispute through international judicial bodies, such as the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea or the International Court of Justice.\nThe advantage of UNCLOS is its relative clarity. International law determining claims to land territory often requires the interpretation of complex treaties and historical examinations of who first discovered and occupied the land. In contrast, claims to the ocean are for the most part based on distance from the coastline or depth of water. When conflicts emerge, international judicial bodies provide a means to resolve disputes.\nInternational law, consequently, is an excellent tool for Arctic states to resolve territorial disputes. To take full advantage, however, states must act swiftly. As the Arctic heats up, it will be easier for states to extract hydrocarbons and use new sea routes. Once states have invested in infrastructure that takes advantage of these resources, they will be less likely to cooperate when there is the possibility of losing territory. This is demonstrated in the South China Sea dispute. After building up military and civilian infrastructure, China rejected the Permanent Court of Arbitration\u2019s ruling that China had no historic right to the Spratly Islands.\nTaking advantage of international law means understanding and having faith in it. For instance, when Russia planted a flag at the North Pole in 2007, representatives of Western states accused Russia of trying to claim it as their territory. Russia stated that this was not the case, but even if it was, planting a flag has no legal effect. While no conflict emerged, greater confidence in international law would have helped to calm tensions.\nUpholding international law also means abiding the decisions of international courts. No recent territorial dispute in the Arctic has been resolved through a court as of yet, but this possibility always exists. States may be wary of respecting court decisions when they do not result in the verdict they wanted. However, they must understand that such unsatisfactory outcomes are better than the alternative: undermining the international legal system, which would destabilize the Arctic.\nThe United States also has a critical role to play. It is one of the few states that has not ratified UNCLOS. In practice, the United States follows its rules, but without being a party to the treaty it undermines it. In addition, it will be unable to submit claims to the continental shelf through UNCLOS, potentially forcing it to do so unilaterally and thus help to weaken international law.\nStates should also push to strengthen the CLCS. Determining the extent of the continental shelf is highly complex. With insufficient resources there is a significant backlog in reviewing submissions, taking up to two or more decades before a decision can be made. Waiting this long may dissuade states from pursuing this process. For this reason, Arctic states should push for greater financing for the CLCS. With Russia and the United States as Security Council members, such a push would carry significant weight.\nInternational law is, of course, not the only solution. Efforts at reducing carbon dioxide emissions can help slow melting in the Arctic. Regional cooperation, through intergovernmental organizations and joint scientific research, can also help to promote peace. NATO should work to develop a collective and robust plan for Arctic security. Nevertheless, international law provides the clearest way of resolving disputes. States must take advantage of it now before it\u2019s too late.\nPhoto: The Los Angeles-class fast-attack submarine USS Hartford (SSN 768) surfaces from the ice in support of Ice Exercise 2018 (2018), U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication 2nd Class Michael H.

        "title": "Economic Abstraction - ENL Wiki",
        "raw_content": "ENL Wiki \u00bb ENL Framework \u00bb Economic Abstraction\nWhen combined with analytical and geographical scope, ENL's economic abstraction fully defines the range of topics that constitute its analytical universe.\nSystematic thought about any complex reality requires that we ignore minor details and focus on significant features. The distinction between the minor and the significant sets the stage for all subsequent development and is thus of central importance.\nThe abstraction used by ENL is depicted in the following diagram. The components are briefly described below and treated more fully throughout this wiki.\nENL's economic abstraction\nThe key economic factors covered by ENL\u2019s terms, concepts, and tools.\nThe diagram uses solid lines to depict flows that are predominantly physical, and dashed lines to depict flows that are predominantly non-physical. It divides the economic world into three major components: humankind, nature, and the economy itself.\n(It is true that, considered in physical terms, an economy is part of the environment in which it is embedded. However, they can be represented separately in a conceptual diagram in order to understand the logical relationships between them.)\nThere is a highly significant relationship among the abstraction's three major components: the economy is the means for achieving humankind's ends, subject to nature's constraints.\nThis set of relationships is fundamental, and recognizing it is indispensable not only for ENL, but for any other guiding framework that might be developed in the future.\nThe economy exists for people rather than the other way around. Stating this clearly and making it a central part of the economic abstraction should ensure that we will never treat the economy as an end in itself, but will instead focus on the human requirements that\u2014within natural limits\u2014justify its existence.\nThe other pitfall that must be sidestepped is to confuse an economy's goal with the constraints to be respected while striving to meet this goal. Undeniably, an economy must operate within its environmental limits. But this restriction is not the economy's purpose \u2014 the economy is there to meet humankind's needs for shelter, sustenance, etc.\nIf this is unclear, think about driving a car. We don't do this to avoid accidents, but to get to our destination. In getting to our destination, however, it is extremely important that we avoid accidents. Getting there is the goal, whereas avoiding accidents is the constraint on our driving behavior.\nThis distinction is not a semantic subtlety \u2014 it is critical to our economic orientation. For example, the North Korean economy could be the most sustainable one on Earth, but if its people are living in misery and ill-health, then it is far from being the world's most successful one.\nWe don't want to emulate such an economy as a whole, but we do want to duplicate its sustainability while creating a bountiful economy. However, environmental sustainability has been misidentified as an economic goal by several modes of environmental thought, including many proponents of ecological economics.\nHumankind is at the heart of ENL's economic concerns, and it is therefore placed at the top of the abstraction diagram. As can be seen from the arrows, people interact with the economy in three main ways: through the consumption of final outputs, the provision of labor, and the health effects associated with the environmental consequences of production.\nThe fact that humankind provides labor raises an important point: humankind, like nature when it provides natural resources, is part of the economy. In other words, humankind and nature each have two distinct economic roles. Humankind is the economy's end, but as workers we are also part of that economy, and thus participate in the means to satisfy the end.\nSimilarly, nature establishes the economy's constraints, but as a set of resources it too is part of the economy, and therefore part of the means to attain human objectives.\nIt is important to recognize these dual roles.\nA final output is one that is directly consumed, and therefore includes such things as houses, books, meals, and manicures.\nAny other output is called an intermediate output.\nSome outputs can be both, depending on their application: a train can be used for leisure travel or to deliver cargo; a computer can be used to play games or to write business reports. Because many final outputs are physical objects, consumption is shown as a solid line.\nLabor is not a physical flow and is therefore shown as a dashed line.\nInside the box marked \"Nature\" are renewable and nonrenewable resources, which flow from nature into the economy. Nature also includes the capacity to absorb wastes and the potential for habitat destruction. These are represented by arrows going the other way\u2014from the economy to nature.\nRenewables are resources associated with the sun's radiation: the organic components of the biosphere plus the hydrological and atmospheric phenomena resulting from solar energy. Although independent of the sun, the geothermal energy from the earth's interior is also included in this category.\nNonrenewables are materials found in the earth's crust that are not regenerated over time periods that are meaningful to humankind. These include minerals, fossil fuels,18 topsoil for agriculture, and to some degree water. Such natural assets are stored, in finite amounts, in accumulations called stocks.\nHabitat destruction refers to the degradation of living conditions for non-human species as a consequence of humankind's economic activities. This can result in the weakening of species and eventually their extinction.\nWastes, which are the material residues of economic activities, include the various types of pollution, materials discarded during production, and outputs that are thrown away at the end of their useful lives.\nThe four main interactions between nature and an economy\u2014habitat destruction, wastes, renewables, and nonrenewables\u2014are referred to in ENL as natural flows.\nThe first three of these have a biological basis and are therefore called biological flows. Such flows, which are associated with ecological degradation and threshold effects, are used to set production limits.\nThe fourth type of natural flow, nonrenewables, does not have a biological basis. These resources are subject to depletion, but not to degradation or thresholds, and are therefore ignored when production limits are established.\nIn the box marked \"Economy\" are final outputs and intermediate outputs. Intermediate outputs are used in the production of other outputs. Included in this category are the components of a final output, such as the cabinets and paint used in producing a house, as well as machines and other productive assets, such as buildings and trucks.\nThe distinction between final and intermediate outputs is crucial because our consumption desires are met only by final outputs. Producing intermediate outputs may be good for some businesses, but from ENL\u2019s perspective they are simply a means to an end\u2014the production of final outputs that can enhance human well-being.\nThe abstraction helps define the extent of ENL's analytical universe. The framework's purpose is to develop methods that permit us to estimate rational quantities and rates for all the economic components shown in the diagram, plus the population level.\nHowever, the abstraction also defines the limits to this universe. For example, while the framework proposes a method for limiting waste flows in general, it does not consider specific waste flows such as carbon dioxide or cyanide. Such details are in the realm of the physical sciences, which must be consulted in conjunction with ENL and functional theories to address concrete environmental issues.",

From Metropolis, the 1927 Fritz Lang classic in which Maria, a cyborg whose sultry ways plunge the city and its workers into chaos (she\u2019s later burned at a stake) toAustin Powers: International Man of Mystery, the hit 1997 spy film whose comely fembots are programmed to ensnare the bumbling Powers with his own libido, female robots are often cast as temptresses or destroyers, coincidentally enough, the same roles reserved for flesh-and-blood women.\nAnd from Apple\u2019s Siri, the chirpy virtual assistant who can help you schedule meetings and find directions to Amazon\u2019s Alexa, who can plan dinner and organise date night like a dutiful secretary, we\u2019re inundated with AIs with female voices and female names. It\u2019s a reflection of a world that sees women as servile, domestic creatures whose feelings are overlooked and whose labour goes widely uncompensated. \u201cOur machines are projections of us. They\u2019re dreams or metaphors for our own anxieties,\u201d says Sophie Mayer, a film studies lecturer at London\u2019s Queen Mary University in a January 2015 article in The Guardian.\nBut if our machines are simply a projection of us, can we design them to rewrite these sexist scripts? In a December 2015 article for The World Economic Forum, Dr Pascale Fung, Professor of Electronic and Computer Engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology \u2013 who cites July 2015 Carnegie Melon research which found that Google\u2019s algorithm was more likely to serve up high-paying, prestige jobs to men than to women \u2013 argues that it\u2019s possible to program AI to avoid gender bias completely.\n\u201cWe can design AI algorithms to avoid \u2018unconscious bias\u2019 common in human recruiters,\u201d Fung tells me over email. \u201cAI can be designed to provide an analysis of candidate profile in a more comprehensive way than human screening, as it can analyse past data that correlates candidates of a certain profile with job performances. Studies have shown that the more comprehensive analysis of a candidate, the more the genders become equal in the hiring process.\u201d\nThis would be useful given that just 26 per cent of management personnel, 24 per cent of board directors and 17 per cent of CEOs are women, according to 2015 research by the Australian Bureau of Statistics. (An October 2015 Catalyst report, which found that women accounted for 95.3 per cent of secretaries and administrative assistants in the US, suggests that our reliance on female virtual assistants is inevitable, if depressing).\nAnd the rise of social robots such as Pepper, an android that\u2019s programmed to read and respond to emotions (it\u2019s already relieving Japan of some of its childcare burden) and Jibo, a miniature critter that can read children bedtime stories and help them with their homework \u2013 duties often shouldered by women \u2013 may be able to ease domestic pressures and free up working mothers\u2019 time.\nBut Professor Jon McCormack, the director of Monash University\u2019s SensiLab, a space that specialises in robotics research, believes that we still have a long way to go before robots can take on human responsibilities.\n\u201cRobots can be used to keep children active through physical games, copying exercises that the robot does, somewhat like the way a personal trainer motivates you,\u201d he explains. \u201cAnother emerging area is in remote telepresence, where the robot becomes a physical avatar of the parent or carer. While humanoid robots aren\u2019t yet capable of performing childcare duties unattended, if they are controlled by a human remotely they can undertake some basic care duties, like an extension of the baby monitor. But at the moment, it\u2019s better to think of them at the level of cute or recalcitrant pets, rather than at the level of human intelligence.\u201d\nThe more interesting question may not be whether or not AI can bring us one step closer to gender equality, but how we can program a fairer vision of the future when our own programming is so deeply flawed. As long as we see technology as an extension of male desires, robots won\u2019t help us move forward \u2013 they\u2019ll just reflect all the things we get wrong.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb All Peoples' Congress (APC), Headlines, Party Politics, South-East \u00bb Igbo destiny is in APC: Azuka Okwuosa, APC chieftain, Ojukwu associate\nIgbo destiny is in APC: Azuka Okwuosa, APC chieftain, Ojukwu associate\nPosted by admin All Peoples' Congress (APC), Headlines, Party Politics, South-East Saturday, August 18th, 2018\nOkwuosa, who is angling to represent Anambra South in the forthcoming 2019 election, gave reasons he wants to go to the upper legislative chamber.\nHonourable Azuka Okwuosa is a knight of the Anglican Church and frontline politician in Anambra State, who was mentored by the late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. Therefore, Okwuosa like the late Ojukwu believes in politics that favours all as against one played for personal aggrandizement. He has seen it all beginning with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), where he understudied the late Ikemba Nnewi and now the All Progressives Congress (APC). In this interview he warned the Igbo not to repeat the mistake of not voting massively for the APC in 2019.\nOkwuosa, who is angling to represent Anambra South Senatorial District in the forthcoming 2019 election, gave reasons he wants to go to the upper legislative chamber. Excerpts:\nCould you tell us briefly about your political background?\nI was the chairman of Nnewi Local Government Council between 1994 and 1996, which at the time was made up of Nnewi and Ekwusigo LGA. I was chairman of all chairmen; I was the youngest chairman because of my leadership qualities. Subsequently in 1999, I was Commissioner for Works and Transport in Anambra State. I played a key role in developing a blueprint for the infrastructural development of the state, which successive administrations in the state have been using. I was also the Secretary General of South East Development Initiative in 2002 for almost eight years. Then I ran for Senate in 2007 for Anambra South Senatorial zone and I adjudged I won that election on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). Subsequently, I was in the Election Petitions Tribunal for two years. It was on record that I was the only APGA candidate then that won his case at the Court of Appeal, Enugu. I got the election nullified and a fresh election was conducted in 2009. So, thereafter I have been playing a key and leading role within the society and the political arena.\nWho was your role model in politics?\nI was actually tutored by the Great Ikemba Nnewi, the late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. I was privileged to have understudied him for at least 10 years. He came back from exile in 1982. And I started working for him immediately after my National Youth Service programme in 1984 for 10 years. It was in 1994 that I became local government chairman. I was privileged to have tapped his wealth of experience and philosophy, which is lacking today in most people who are now parading themselves as his disciples and apostles. Most of those people never knew him and never worked with him. But they felt they could ride under his crest and use his name to win elections. But for me, I understand his ideology. I understand his vision and what he really stood for. That is still what I\u2019m propagating today in my political moves, which have really guided me up to this level.\nREAD ALSO: Ojukwu\u2019s bodyguard: Ojukwu told us Biafra is last hope of Igbo man\nAre you saying that APGA is no longer propagating the ideologies of Ikemba?\nYes, to a large extent because I was a foundation member of APGA. I was formerly in PDP and also a foundation member of PDP in 1999. In 2003 the Great Ikemba called me and said we should forge ahead and have a political party that would represent the ideals and interest of our people. Ikemba was then the chairman of ANPP Board of Trustees. I was from PDP background. So, we all resigned and then came together and forged a common front, the APGA. So, I knew his vision, I knew what he stood for, his commitments, the ideals of Igbo nation. We were propagating it from that 2003 till 2007 when I ran for an elective position. By then Ikemba was less active due to ill health and everything. So, most of those ideals and philosophies have been watered down by those who call themselves the disciples and apostles of Ikemba to the extent that my senatorial ambition was sabotaged by the party over a pot of porridge. When I saw that the party was working at cross purposes with members of the party, especially the leaders who did not have the vision which Ikemba stood for, that was when I felt that the party could no longer propagate those ideals. I tarried a while. I wanted to leave APGA in 2009 after my re-run but the Great Ikemba called me and said I shouldn\u2019t do that. He told me to exercise patience that it was his last wish. That was when he made that popular statement. And still in 2010 we all worked for Governor Peter Obi\u2019s re-election and he won. But the moment the Great Ikemba died, I felt that my part with him had expired. And the remnant of what we had at hand in the party was no longer representing what Ikemba stood for. ticate what I said, in less than six months or one year, Peter Obi left APGA and joined the PDP. That was a confirmation of what happened that time. So, to me, the center could no longer hold. That was when we started looking for another healthy platform in order to further ventilate and propagate those ideals Ojukwu stood for.\nREAD ALSO: Peter Obi and the moment of truth\nDo you think you can achieve those ideals in APC?\nWell, to me I really feel that a party is a vehicle through which you can do your journey. The most important thing is the driver and occupants of that vehicle. Nigeria has reached a level where we should begin to look at candidates, their programmes and philosophies, their antecedents, track records, their vision, what they think they can do. To me, we made a fundamental mistake at the formative stage of Buhari\u2019s administration. Everybody in the whole South-East clustered in PDP even when we had a clarion call that we should not put all our eggs in one basket. The leadership then, in quotes, under the PDP where most of the Igbo elite found themselves jettisoned the APC to the extent that the position of Senate President under an APC government was zoned to the South-East but we could not produce a single senator to occupy that position. That was why the Senate Presidency went back to the North. The South-West has more political sagacity. You saw how they were able to entrench themselves both in APC and the PDP to the extent that if Jonathan had won, they would still have their rightful position in government, but APC won and they have the Vice President and other juicy parts of the administration. The failure of the people of South-East extraction to support the APC in the first instance was a costly mistake. So, as far as I\u2019m concerned, the dynamics of politics is for you to know what your interest is. Today, APC is in government and in power. We are now crying today about marginalization, shortchanging and all that.\nREAD ALSO: South East APC to Buhari: Give us 2023 presidency\nBut our so-called elite in the PDP, who confused most of the people and electorate into making them to believe that nothing good can ever come out of that system, initiated the marginalization. When they failed, most of them now made a fast move to join the APC. This is what they could have done at the formative stage when they would have been in the position to negotiate for power and be given what is due to us. But I wasn\u2019t surprised because there is this saying that an average Igbo man does not like to board a stationary vehicle. He chooses to enter the vehicle when it is in motion. If an Igbo man wants to enter a luxury bus going to Lagos from Onitsha, he will first of all peep into the bus and if there are only few passengers he will not enter rather he will go and look for akara or peanut to buy to play on time. And by the time he comes back the bus is already filled up and he will go for attachment when the juicy seats have all been occupied. So, he will not be in a position to choose a seat. So, they believe in a moving vehicle. The moment it starts moving they begin to come in. To me, I feel that we shouldn\u2019t put all our eggs in one basket. APC is an alternative. Every party is an alternative ,but APC is a party in government. We need to come together and take what belongs to us within the annals of that political party. Any idea, any conspiracy towards making our people jettison that party will be the worst mistake because in politics and other areas of life, nobody knows tomorrow. It is only God that knows who is going to be the next president. Supposing you jettison the party now and tomorrow Buhari still wins, what will you do? Will you still cry about marginalization when you are given a second option, a second chance to correct the previous mistake you made about three or four years ago? And you repeat the same mistake. So, we are at the crossroads of our political journey to correct our mistakes. Forget about propaganda being peddled everywhere. We look at facts; we negotiate to get what belongs to us. Let me tell you a story. You remember the story of the Israelites when the sons of Jacob sold their only brother, Joseph, to Egyptian slave traders. At a point in their history there was a great famine and there was no food in Israel. They had to move to Egypt to look for corn and fortunately enough for them, they didn\u2019t know that their brother that was sold into slavery many years ago had become a Prime Minister in Egypt. He was the one that gave them a soft landing. So, if they didn\u2019t have their brother at the helm of affairs, what do you think would have happened? There is this adage that a person whose brother is in heaven\ndoes not go to hell fire. That was what helped them. You know the rest of the story. We must have a situation whereby we key in and begin to play politics the way it ought to be played so that we can be relevant in this present dispensation. Politics is very dynamic now and it is only for people who are very dynamic, who know how to act and when to act, who do not look at personal interest but group interest, these are the people worthy to be listened to. To that extent, I feel that APC is the alternative and the vehicle that will take us to the Promised Land and our fair share in this country.\nWas the reason that the Igbo did not massively vote for Buhari in his first tenure enough to deny the South-East juicy positions in his administration?\nAre you saying that our people are not accommodated in Buhari\u2019s administration? We have our people in government. No state in this country has been shortchanged in the issue of ministerial appointments. Ministerial appointments are spread across the component states. You might say that probably during the time of Jonathan the Igbo had more. We had the deputy Senate President, we had Secretary to Government of the Federation, we had Minister for Finance, we had Economic Adviser, we had the Central Bank Governor, and so on and so forth. It was even adjudged the golden age of appointments in our history. But then what do we have in return for that? All the federal roads during that golden era of massive appointments for the people of the South-East are completely bad. They are not being maintained. Money voted for federal roads were being diverted for ancillary roads within individual constituencies of some of those people who were elected to go and represent the interest of the region. Enugu-Onitsha road was almost impassable, the same for the Enugu-Port Harcourt road. Oba-Okigwe expressway was in a very deplorable state. All the major federal highways, and that was what crippled the economic value of the zone, commerce and industry started suffering. That was the highest ebb of our appointments within the federal structure, but that was also the lowest ebb of our level of development because those who were there at that time went after their personal interest, not the interest of the South-East. So, to me it is not the number of people you have in a system that matters but what they are able to achieve. Okay let\u2019s look at the present dispensation under President Buhari. Today, Enugu-Onitsha road, one lane has been almost completed from Enugu axis down to Awka. That is verifiable. That is in less than two years. Regarding Enugu-Port Harcourt, you need to go and see the massive reconstruction work going on there, Enugu airport project is being accelerated, the Second Niger Bridge construction is ongoing. Go and see what is happening there. Under Jonathan, they did a wishy-washy job. They said they had a consortium to do the jobs for the interest of the people. Do you know how much they spent in consultancy alone but there is nothing to show for it? But today under the Buhari administration, construction work is ongoing at the Second Niger Bridge. Look at other areas. I can authoritatively tell you that in other phases of our lives things are relatively okay compared to what happened in the time of Jonathan. We have more developmental projects going on, executed and properly done vis-a-viz for six years we were under Jonathan. Compare this with three years under Buhari as it concerns the South-East.\nMany Nigerians think it is rather suicidal to vote Buhari for second tenure because of high level of insecurity and killings everywhere. What\u2019s your take on that?\nWell, the issue of security in this country has been a very delicate issue. That did not start with the present administration. It has been there even during the time of Olusegun Obasanjo. We heard what happened at Odi, we heard what happened at Ogoni land, we saw what happened at Zango Kataff, Maitesine riots, etc. The issue of the present day Boko Haram had long been there. During the time of Jonathan, it was in high proportion in terms of escalation. It was even that time we had the issue of kidnapping of Chibok girls and some other incidents. So, today the fallout of those indices is what the present administration inherited. It is a big challenge. There is no doubt about that. But today, to a large extent I believe that the issue of insecurity in Nigeria is being politicized. If you look at the latest killing in Plataeu State and even in Benue, most of the people apprehended had already confessed about their source of sponsorship by some key opposition leaders. You can now see that there is political colouration to the issue of insecurity in this country. So, we really need to understand where the problem is actually coming from. We should not allow our personal interest to be used to mortgage the lives of our fellow citizens to shore up political popularity. What I\u2019m trying to say is that we should all come together and see this thing as national crisis irrespective of the political party we belong to because the person that will be slaughtered tomorrow can be you.\nPosted by admin on Aug 18 2018.

Michele Bachmann, R-Stillwater, is sponsoring a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. Bachmann says voters, not the courts, should be the ones to decide the definition of marriage. (MPR Photo/Tom Scheck)\nA new Minnesota Public Radio - St. Paul Pioneer Press poll says a majority of Minnesotans are opposed to legalizing gay marriage. But the poll also shows Minnesotans are split on whether they want to amend the constitution to ban gay marriage. The issue of gay marriage will be a hot-button issue at the Legislature this session after the Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled last year that gays have a right to marry. The same court said on Wednesday that civil unions fall short of granting gay couples their rights under the Massachusetts constitution.\nSt. Paul, Minn. \u2014 In results consistent with national polls, the MPR - Pioneer Press poll shows more than six in 10 registered Minnesota voters say they oppose legalizing gay marriage. But when asked whether the state constitution should be amended to permanently ban gay marriages, the results shift. Forty-nine percent oppose a constitutional amendment; forty-three percent are in favor.\n\"Gay marriage would be a nightmare for insurance companies, for work, because where does it end?\" asked Patty Wahlroos, one of the poll respondents. She's a stay-at-home mom from Elk River. \"In the other respect I was raised Catholic. To be honest, I don't think it's the right thing to do.\"\nWhite Wahlroos supports amending the constitution to ban gay marriage, poll respondent Andrew McGlasson of Eden Prairie doesn't. McGlasson says he's undecided on the issue of legalizing gay marriage, but he says Minnesota already has a law that bans gay marriage so adding a constitutional amendment would be overkill.\n\"Now we have to pass another law to make sure that what's currently not legal stays not legal? That seems a little silly to me. That seems to me more of a function of legislative and political things at work than trying to accomplish objectives,\" he said.\nMcGlasson says he also supports the concept of civil unions for gay couples. Civil unions would provide gay couples the same legal rights as married couples, such as the right to make medical decisions for each other and to share health insurance benefits. Forty-four percent of those polled support legalizing civil unions. Forty-seven percent oppose it and 9 percent are undecided.\nAt the Capitol, those opposed to gay marriage and civil unions say they want to keep marriage between a man and a woman. Sen. Michele Bachmann, R-Stillwater, is sponsoring a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. Bachmann says voters, not the courts, should be the ones to decide the definition of marriage.\n\"This is a huge matter because to most people, marriage means something. And if we redefine marriages other than one man and one woman our society will look very different from the society that we've grown up in,\" according to Bachmann.\nIf both the House and Senate approve the proposed constitutional amendment, it will be on the ballot in November. If a majority of people voting in the election approve the amendment, it becomes the law of the state.\nSen. Scott Dibble, DFL-Minneapolis, is the only openly gay member of the Senate. He says he's encouraged the poll shows a majority opposes a constitutional amendment.\n\"That really reflects my main concern and that is 'What is the basic purpose of our constitution?'

        "title": "Bob Deegan's Night Skies: Serpents and Staffs",
        "raw_content": "SERPENTS AND STAFFS\nIf you look toward the east around 10pm, you will see the large constellation of Ophiuchus, the Serpent Bearer, spread across the horizon. Ophiuchus is an age-old constellation from the Greeks. It represents Asclepius, a son of Apollo, who invented medicine. Serpens, the snake he holds in his arms, is a symbol of restored life. At the time, snakes were thought to renew their lives whenever they shed their skins. This constellation is believed to be an abstraction of the symbol of medicine, a serpent entwined on a staff called an asklepian. But, wait a moment; isn\u2019t the symbol of medicine two snakes on a winged staff called a caduceus? After all, we see it a lot wherever medical services are provided, so it must be right. Well, actually no, the caduceus never had anything to do with medicine and its current misuse as a medical symbol is still the subject of cocktail-controversy among doctors.\nIn the classic Hippocratic Oath, new doctors swore their vocation \u201cby Apollo Physician and Asclepius and Hygieia and Panaceia [daughters of Asclepius \u2013 Hygiene and All Healing]\u201d. Ruins of asklepions, early hospitals and medical schools, with staff-and-snake carvings can still be visited in Greece. The caduceus actually belonged to Hermes, more familiar in his Roman version as the god Mercury. Mercury was the god of commerce and travel. He also conducted departed souls to the underworld and didn\u2019t take kindly to Asclepius\u2019 intervention. When Mercury appeared at your door with his caduceus, your number was supposed to be up. Our word caducity still refers to impending and inescapable death.\nThe blurring of the lines between profitable commerce and healing is not new, but the blurring of these symbols surely is. In the engraving of an ancient Roman work at upper-left, a merchant pleads a business enterprise with Asclepius reasoning that the sick will pay any price to get well. He is backed by the commerce-god Mercury holding a caduceus. Asclepius, grasping the asklepian of medicine and flanked by the moral Graces, shuns the merchant and the deal.\nIt wasn\u2019t until the mid-1800s when a British publisher named John Churchill slapped his company\u2019s commerce logo on medical texts sold in the United States that things really got out of hand. Some American doctors, who were a bit hazy about the symbol of their profession, saw the caduceus logo and mistook it for what they did for a living. Besides, two snakes on a staff were better than one and the wings were really neat looking. One of these doctors, Captain Frederick Reynolds petitioned the Army to have a gold caduceus established as the badge of military doctors. Its adoption in 1902 spread the misidentification throughout the country.\nAlthough the American Medical Association holds the asklepian as medicine\u2019s symbol, the caduceus will probably be around for quite some time. Maybe the gods of commerce are still trying to have their way. It reminds me that hundreds of years ago, the island of San Juan with its town, Puerto Rico (\u201cRich Port\u201d) was publicized as the island of Puerto Rico with a capitol of San Juan in order to attract European investors to the exploration of the territory.",

        "raw_content": "General Stonewall Jackson & Colonel Turner Ashby\nJackson's Headquarters - Romney, Western Virginia - January 14, 1862\nGeneral Stonewall Jackson and his troops had finally arrived in the town of Romney after a long and difficult passage through the mountains of western Virginia. A snow storm had blanketed the countryside and snow was still falling in Romney. The temperature did not get above twenty-seven degrees.\nJackson's plan was to destroy and capture the Federal garrison located there. But to the General's surprise, the Federals had abandoned Romney and fled the city not wishing to engage General Jackson's army. Jackson believed his success was nothing short of a miracle from God Almighty himself.\nJackson made his headquarters in John Baker White's brick home located in the center of town. Liberated from the Federal occupation, the citizenry of Romney was thrilled with the arrival of southern troops.\nUnlike other wars fought in different parts of the world, the Civil War was being fought on home ground. Women played an enormous role in the lives of southern soldiers. They looked for any way they could help. Many offered their homes to wounded soldiers and became nurses, laundresses, cooks, couriers, spies, and writers. Women struggled to do the work of their men who had gone off to defend their country. They worked in the fields, and ran the family farm. A number of women in Winchester had knit enough socks to outfit the whole Stonewall Brigade. Unlike the Northern troops who were supported by great stores of material from rich and populous cities closely connected by rail, the Southern Army relied upon the generosity of the citizenry to sustain itself.\nSo it was with great appreciation on the snowy night of January 14th that Stonewall Jackson and Col. Ashby received a bit of heartfelt southern hospitality.",

        "raw_content": "CAREM Project Milestone: Helical Steam Generator Tubes\nMore than 700 specially manufactured tubes for the steam generators associated with the so-called CAREM project in Argentina \u2013 the Central Argentina de Elementos Modulares project \u2013 have been delivered to the construction site near the Atucha Nuclear Power Plant, CONUAR announced last week. CONUAR is the acronym for Combustibles Nucleares Argentinos, the organization that is moving forward with the country's first domestically designed nuclear power reactor of any kind.\nThis, the country's first, will be a 32MWe prototype unit that is envisioned as a scalable modular-based pressurized water reactor with the potential to scale up to a 120MWe model.\nCONUAR said the tubes \u2013 there will be 52 of them in six layers for each generator \u2013 were treated in a specially designed furnace that allowed for their length and the carefully controlled thermal dynamics. The tubes are 35 meters long, which required construction of a world's longest vacuum furnace, which was built at 37 meters with 18 separate computerized thermal zones to ensure consistent stress-treatment heating. The furnace, CONOUR said, operated between 500 and 850 degrees Celsius.\nThe eventual small reactor is scheduled to be made 70 percent of components built in Argentina. The tubes, in this case, had to be straight and seamless. They were built under standards set by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and the National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA). They were made with input from the CNEA's Department of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Non-Destructive Testing and Fabrica de Aleaciones Especiales (FAE).\n\u201cEach of CAREM25's GV is made up of a system of helical tubes grouped in six layers. CONUAR has participated on the detailed engineering and will be in charge of the qualification and development of the turns and welds for manufacture of the first mock up, whose production will begin during 2018,\u201d CONUAR said.\nThe reactor is designed to be operational for a \u201cminimum of 60 years \u2013 and has specific features such as the integration inside the pressure vessel of all the components of the primary system and the Gvs; the use of lightly enriched uranium (less than 4 percent), moderation and cooling with light water, the implementation of passive safety systems and an innovative hydraulc control rod positioning system.\u201d the company said in a statement.",

        "raw_content": "Learning To ADDress And Accept ADHD\nBy Kortney Sweeney\nIt took me five hours to actually start writing this blog from the time I forced myself to sit down to begin it, and it took me another four hours to finish it. During the first five hours, I checked social media multiple times, made coffee and read a few paragraphs for another homework assignment. I walked into a room without remembering why, made food and then forgot about it, and got distracted for hours designing irrelevant flyers on InDesign before ultimately turning to the very important task of taking a quiz to find out which \u201cHow I Met Your Mother\u201d character I am (I\u2019m Robin).\nThis, in a nutshell, describes some of the main symptoms people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), particularly the inattentive aspect, deal with every day. ADHD makes it difficult for people to actually start an activity, but if they love what they\u2019re doing once they begin, they become so hyper-focused that they lose track of time and often even forget to eat or sleep. They can\u2019t sit still, and they feel the need to try to work on several tasks at once, but it\u2019s hard to actually finish even one of those tasks. Impulsivity and spontaneity are also symptoms.\nPeople often view ADD/ADHD as a disability, and my disclosure that I have it is often met with an awkward pause or pitying smile, as if they suspect I\u2019m embarrassed about my ADHD. I\u2019m not. No one else who has it should be either. Accepting the condition and actively searching for ways to function with it are the first steps in controlling it and beating it. Unfortunately, this is often made more difficult because many people refuse to admit that ADHD is a real condition and not a side effect of laziness or too much energy.\nI\u2019ve always had ADHD, but I wasn\u2019t diagnosed with it and prescribed medication until high school. The first day I took my Vyvanse, I called my mom crying after my first class because I had never known until that morning what it felt like to be able to fully focus on something.\nMedication helped me at a time when I needed it most and is often a life-changer for people with ADHD, but it isn\u2019t always the best or only option. Its uncomfortable side effects, such as loss of appetite and nausea, convinced me to cease medication and combat ADHD on my own. It\u2019s a different fight for me than before I was diagnosed because I accept and understand my condition.\nDealing with it isn\u2019t a breeze, but I\u2019ve learned to set strict deadlines for myself along with incentives for meeting those deadlines. I try to complete my homework in plain rooms with as little distractions as possible, and I exercise regularly to release pent-up energy. Even doing simple things like setting alarms and placing sticky note reminders around my room makes day-to-day responsibilities easier.\nThat reminds me. I have a dozen unfinished tasks waiting for me to begin.\nPrevious Previous post: The Tattoo Revolution: Why people are just going to have to get used to them\nNext Next post: Books To Get Cozy With",

        "title": "Why Use Hydroponics",
        "raw_content": "As is true with any other form of gardening, choosing the right plants is an essential part of hydroponics. Choosing plants that are suitable for soil free gardening will help the garden thrive. Choosing the wrong plants can leave you frustrated with the whole hydroponic approach to growing plants.\nOne of the great things about hydroponic gardening is that gardeners can take several different approaches to the subject. There are several different types of hydroponic gardening, each with its own set of suitable and unsuitable plants. In this article we will take a look at each of these forms of gardening, and provide a list of suitable plants for each one.\nNutrient Film Technique (NFT) Gardening\nIn the nutrient film technique form of gardening there is a constant flow of nutrients through a series of pipes. The roots of the plants simply dangle in this constantly flowing water, with the tops of the plants supported from above using either a platform or some type of trellis.\nSome of the plants best suited to the NFT form of hydroponic gardening include:\nExamples of unsuitable NFT plants include roses, bulbs and most indoor plants.\nGravel Bed Gardening\nIn the gravel bed type of hydroponic gardening there is a boxed structure or raised bed filled with stone or coarse sand. Nutrient solutions can be applied in a number of ways, including drip irrigation and flooding the gravel bed with water and reusing the excess.\nSuitable plants for a gravel bed system include:\nThe gravel bed system is also well suited for growing cuttings, and for propogating flowers like carnations and chrysanthemums. Root vegetables like carrots typically will not do as well in a gravel bed system.\nRockwool is a popular medium for hydroponic gardening, and this lightweight mateirlal is suitable for many different plant species. Rockwool has the ability to hold a large quantity of nutrients, making it a perfect choice for hydroponic gardening. Nutrients can be supplied using drip irrigation, and it is almost impossible to over water this type of system.\nSome plants that would be suitable for growing in rockwool include:\nRoot plants are not suitable for rockwool growth and should be avoided.\nPerlite is widely available in garden centers, and perlite kits are easily available to hydroponic gardeners. Gardeners using this system can simply wet the perlite with the nutrients and then plant their favorite crops directly into the media. The nutrient can be applied either manually or using a drip irrigation system.\nSome suitable plants for perlite gardening include:\nAs with most hydroponic gardening, root plants are not suitable for this type of system.\nCapillary Fed Systems\nWith a capillary fed setup the water and nutrients are drawn from an outer well using a capillary system. The outer well is topped up as required, giving the plants a steady supply of water and nutrients. This type of system can be as simple as a terracotta pot that has been filled with gravel and place in a bucket of nutrient solution.\nUnlike many other hydroponic systems the capillary fed arrangement is quite well suited for many indoor houseplants. Some of the most suitable plants for this type of arrangement include:\n1. Diffenbachia\n5. African violets\nWhile nothing can guarantee success in the world of gardening, choosing the right plants can be more than half the battle in the world of hydroponics. Determining which type of hydroponic system best suits your needs, and choosing the plant species most suitable for that system, can enhance your chances for success and the enjoyment of your garden.",

U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF) President and CEO Phil Seng said the worldwide trade in beef has been down, as well as for the United States. To date, U.S. beef exports are down about 12 percent on volume and about eight percent on value. The U.S. has been challenged in having a stronger U.S. dollar, which makes it more difficult to compete in a global market place. Seng said the U.S. dollar has appreciated by 20 percent. That has made U.S. beef and other products 20 percent more expensive around the world.\nU.S. beef exports to Japan are down about 15 percent. Seng attributes that to Australia and Japan reaching their Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA). This provides the Australians with a ten percent duty on frozen beef and about an eight percent duty on chilled beef. Seng said the Australians are working very hard to establish themselves in that market.\nThe structure of the Australian beef industry is also changing, which is putting the country in direct competition with the United States. Australia used to produce mostly grass-fed beef. Today about half of the beef shipped from Australia is grain-fed beef. Seng said that's helping Australia mitigate their latest drought in putting cattle in feedlots. That's also pinning U.S. beef in direct competition of Australian beef.\nThe U.S. continues to battle back from losing global market share from having its first Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) case in 2003. When the U.S. was out of those markets, Seng said our competition, like Australia, started to provide a product that the U.S. had once provided. That makes it all the more difficult to get back into these markets.\nThe U.S. beef industry also continues to watch the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement. Seng said TPP is critical to the beef industry in exporting to these Asian-Pacific countries. Once TPP is ratified, he said the duty or tax on U.S. beef would drop from 38.5 percent to 27.5 percent.\nI featured Seng on this morning's Beef Buzz.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Monday reported the nation's sorghum harvest was 94 percent complete. Peanuts were 96 percent harvested. Both were in line with the five year average. Nationally, cotton harvest was 70 percent complete. That's 12 points behind the average.\nThe nation's wheat crop condition improved slightly this week. USDA reported 53 percent of the crop was in good to excellent condition, 37 percent fair and ten percent in poor to very poor condition. The crop gained one point in the good category. A year ago this week, 58 percent of the crop was in good to excellent condition.\nOSU's Livestock Marketing Specialist Derrell Peel Finds Beef Market in Transition\nMondays, Dr. Derrell Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist, offers his economic analysis of the beef cattle industry. This analysis is a part of the weekly series known as the \"Cow Calf Corner\" published electronically by Dr. Peel and Dr. Glenn Selk. In this week's analysis- Dr. Peel focuses on the prospects of U.S. beef production for the coming year.\n\"Total 2015 beef production in the U.S. is expected to decrease about 2.5 percent year over year from 2014 and would be the lowest annual beef production in the U.S since 1993. However, herd expansion, which began in 2014, is continuing in 2015 and means that beef production will begin increasing, perhaps three to four percent year over year, in 2016. The slight increase in the 2014 calf crop has been mostly offset by increased heifer retention and fewer Mexican and Canadian feeder cattle imports in 2015. The July 1 estimate of feeder supplies was up 1.8 percent year over year. Good forage conditions may be keeping some feeder cattle on pastures longer this year. Feeder supplies are growing, but rather slowly at the current time.\n\"In any event, the supply of cattle in feedlots has not yet begun to increase. October feedlot placements reported in the latest Cattle on Feed report were down 3.7 percent from one year ago. This is the fourth consecutive month of year over year decreases in feedlot placements and, in fact, monthly placements have been below year earlier levels in 11 of the past 13 months. In the past six months, total feedlot placements are 452 thousand head less than the same period in 2014. While feedlot placements are expected to begin increasing in the coming months, it is clear that feedlot numbers will remain tight through the first half of 2016.\"\nClick here to read more about backlog of heavy cattle and why Peel is optimistic about fed cattle markets in early 2016\nU.S. Grain Prices Buried Under Large Supplies, Market Outlook from CHS Hedging\nOne market analyst isn't afraid to provide honest insight into marketing this year's wheat, corn, soybean and sorghum crops. CHS Hedging Market Analyst Richard Plackemeier said he won't tell farmers what they want to hear, because \"hope\" is not a good marketing strategy. While farmers hope that commodity prices will trend higher, Plackemeier isn't so optimistic.\n\"Producers are kind of holding the bag right now,\" Plackemeier said. \"I don't really sense that we're going to have a lot of great opportunities. We're going to probably be very range bound in our prices here for wheat and other commodities also, at least through the end of the year and probably going into next spring.\"\nThe outlook for wheat prices is grim. There's plenty of wheat worldwide and demand is being met through cheaper sources than the U.S. The stronger U.S. dollar has limited U.S. wheat exports and that doesn't paint a very bright picture for farmers that haven't sold their 2015 wheat crop. Plackemeier said export demand for U.S. wheat is at its lowest level of the past ten to 15 years. In looking at the next six to 12 months, he doesn't anticipate strong gains in the nation's wheat exports. Plackemeier hopes that farmers sold at least part of their crop at harvest or at least earlier this year, so the current prices would be the lowest that a farmer would receive. With the nation's wheat crop off to a decent start there aren't any production concerns. With large grain stock supplies and a lot of competition, he said the U.S. may have to sell at lower prices to move inventory.\nOur Leslie Smith interviewed Plackemeier at the recent National Association of Farm Broadcasting Convention in Kansas City.\nClick or tap here to hear the full interview as he discusses the outlook for corn, soybeans and sorghum.\nUSDA Announces $350 Million to Protect and Restore Grasslands, Wetlands, and Working Lands\nU.S. Agricultural Secretary Tom Vilsack Thursday announced the availability of $350 million to help landowners protect and restore key farmlands, grasslands and wetlands across the nation. The funding is provided through the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP), created by the 2014 Farm Bill to protect critical water resources and wildlife habitat, and encourage private owners to maintain land for farming and ranching. Through the voluntary sale of an easement, landowners limit future development to protect these key resources.\n\"The benefits of restoring, enhancing and protecting these working agricultural lands and critical wetlands cannot be overstated,\" Vilsack said. \"USDA is committed to preserving working agricultural lands to help protect the long-term viability of farming across the country as well as to restoring and protecting vital sensitive wetlands that provide important wildlife habitat and improve water quality.\"\nACEP's agricultural land easements not only protect the long-term viability of the nation's food supply by preventing conversion of productive working lands to non-agricultural uses, they also support environmental quality, wildlife habitat, historic preservation and protection of open spaces. Native American Tribes, state and local governments and non-governmental organizations that have farmland or grassland protection programs are eligible to partner with NRCS to purchase conservation easements.

Thanksgiving day is just two days away, and many of you will be preparing holiday meals for your families and friends. But don't let food poisoning be on the menu this year.\n\"Every year in the United States, approximately 48 million people get sick because of some form of foodborne illnesses,\" said Ravi Jadeja, food safety specialist for Oklahoma State University's Robert M. Kerr Food & Agricultural Products Center. \"Of those, 128,000 are hospitalized or need medical attention and, unfortunately, 3,000 people die every year.\"\nFAPC offers the following tips to keep your family safe this festive season.\n*Buy only government-inspected meat and poultry products, and check the \"sell by\" date on all food purchases. Never buy products if the expiration dated has passed.\n*Wash your hands thoroughly before and after preparing any food product.\n*Use two cutting boards: one for preparing raw meat, poultry and fish, and the other for cutting cooked food or preparing salads.\nTo read more about food preparation, stuffing the turkey, cooking the turkey, storing and eating leftovers, click here.\nExclusive Analysis- Oklahoma Pasture Conditions The Best They Have Been Entering Winter Since 2010\nAs we approach the end of November- we are coming to the end of the weekly Crop- Weather reports that are issued by NASS- a part of the USDA. The midwest is always focused on corn and soybean plantings, conditions and harvest numbers- here in the southern plains- we watch winter wheat and cotton and grain sorghum a great deal as well.\nHowever- we can really see the impact of drought on the beef cattle business here in Oklahoma if you look at the pasture and range conditions- and consider the year to year changes. The pasture conditions really model the forced liquidation that Mother Nature dictated earlier this decade when drought pushed hundreds of thousands of Mama Cows off the ranches in Oklahoma and neighboring states.\nAs we enter the winter season here in 2015- our pasture-range conditions are in the best condition they have been in since at least 2010, with 43% rated good to excellent and only 17% in poor to very poor condition.\nThat's a slight improvement compared to last November- and 2015 is much better than the ratings of 2013, 2012, 2011 and even 2010.\nHere's the Good-Excellent combined number for the last weekly report of each of the last six years when it comes to pasture-range conditions in Oklahoma:\n2012- 3%\nThe poor to very poor ratings soared to eighty to eighty one percent in 2011 and 2012.\nThese ratings help explain both the liquidation as well as the rebuilding in 2014 and 2015 of the Oklahoma Beef Cow herd.\nWith weather forecasters predicting a wetter than normal winter- permanent pastures have the potential to come through the winter and be in their best shape in many years next March-April.",

An ROTC graduate at North Georgia College, he was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army in 1959. He would go on to serve for nearly 34 years of distinguished active duty service, almost all of it as a Quartermaster officer.\nAlways a \"muddy boot soldier\" at heart, Major General Akin served with some of the Army's finest field and troop units, including: the 8th Infantry Division, in Germany; Company Commander of the 1st Supply and Service Company with the \"Big Red One,\" in Vietnam; Commander of the 2d Supply and Transportation Battalion, 2d Infantry Division Support Command, in Korea; and Commander of the Eagle Support Brigade, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), at Fort Campbell, Kentucky.\nAs Assistant Commandant here at the Quartermaster Center and School from 1984 to 1986, Major General Akin made truly substantial contributions to the training and leader development of Quartermaster officers and noncommissioned officers, and toward major improvements in combat developments. From 1986 to 1989, as a newly promoted Brigadier General, he served as the senior Quartermaster officer and principal logistics advisor to both the Army and Joint Forces Commanders in Korea. From there he took his final assignment as Director of Plans and Operations, Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff (ODCSLOG) in Washington. There during Operation Desert Shield/Storm (1990-91) he ran the Army's Pentagon Logistics Operations Center seven days a week for ten straight months - and so was personally involved in the largest and most rapid deployment since World War II.\nMajor General Akin is the recipient of numerous medals and awards, and has been aptly described by a retired four-star general as \"one of the Army's great field soldiers and Quartermaster leaders.\"",

        "raw_content": "Apr, 25, 2017 Posted in Culture, Tips, Tourism, World\nA baby Linn\u00e9\u2019s two-toed sloth was recently born at the Memphis Zoo, and has a handful of special friends \u2013 the Zoo\u2019s animal care staff and a stuffed elephant. \u201cLua\u201d (loo-ah), a girl, was born on March 17, 2017 to parents \u201cMarilyn\u201d and \u201cSparky.\u201d Lua means \u201cmoon\u201d in Portuguese.\nThis was the first successful Linn\u00e9 two-toed sloth birth at the Memphis Zoo. Marilyn, Lua\u2019s mother, has birthed other infants in previous years that did not survive infancy, so the decision was made that Lua would be hand-reared.\n\u201cWe are very excited about the birth of Lua,\u201d said Matt Thompson, Director of Animal Programs. \u201cThis is a fascinating species and a genetically significant birth. We\u2019re looking forward to this unique opportunity of hand-rearing our little one.\u201d\nWhen staff is not holding the infant, she clings to a stuffed elephant, which strengthens her limbs. This mimics the same behavior she would use with her mother. Sloths are arboreal, meaning tree-dwelling, and spend most of their time upside down.\nBaby Lua is currently not eating solid foods; instead, she\u2019s being bottle-fed every two hours by a member of the Memphis Zoo staff. Sloths are slow growing animals, and as such, Lua will be bottle-fed for the next month. Staff will hand-rear her for the next year.\nBy: memphiszoo.org",

        "title": "Gold Article Full Story",
        "raw_content": "A New Year For Gold\n(January 2, 2006) In gold\u2019s Dark Decades from 1981 to 2001, any public mention of the ageless yellow metal was more likely to be punitive than positive. But things change, witness a recent Barron\u2019s article entitled, \u201cGolden Opportunity?\u201d - a question which is answered entirely in the affirmative.\nThis article by Robin Goldwyn Blumenthal occupied pages 12 and 13 of the December 26th, 2005 issue of Barron\u2019s, pictured a goose and a couple of golden eggs, and was basically an infomercial for gold as an investment. The sub-headline reads as follows:\n\u201cAfter doubling in the past five years, to $500 an ounce, gold may still have plenty of room to run. One bold market seer thinks it\u2019s headed to $3,000. It could be time to grab a pick and shovel. We size up the best ways to play the new gold rush.\u201d\nThis positive treatment of gold by a major popular financial magazine is remarkable in that it assumes that the increase in gold prices over the past four years is no fluke, and further projects an almost unlimited future for gold prices, quoting various analysts as to their predictions:\n\u201c\u2026James Turk, founder of GoldMoney.com, a well-regarded Internet site for buying and selling gold, expect prices to top $850 an ounce next year. He\u2019s worth listening to: in the fall of 2004, Turk correctly forecast that gold would break $500 in 2005.\u201d\nTrey Reik, who manages an equity fund focusing on mining shares, uses a scenario of $1,000 gold to compare the likely returns from mining companies versus the Exchange-Traded Fund GLD.\nAnd the $3,000 gold price cited in the sub-headline is part of an analysis by Marc Faber, a Barron\u2019s Roundtable member and a regular contributor to the magazine.\nThese gold-price predictions are melded into an executive summary posted next to the article, entitled \u201cThe Bottom Line:\u201d\n\u201cGold could exceed $800 next year, say some savvy pros. The easiest way to participate is through StreetTracks Gold Trust, and ETF that\u2019s pulled in $3.9 billion in just a year.\u201d\nAs Barron\u2019s is essentially a popular magazine for investors, the gist of the article is how the reader should participate in the ongoing gold boom. The question of \u2018if\u2019 the reader should participate is never even asked. Rather, the article methodically explores the ins and outs of gold stocks, gold funds, ETFs and the ownership of physical gold itself.>br>\nNot only is the assumption by Barron\u2019s that their readers should participate in the gold market rather ground-breaking, but also gold price citations such as $850, $1,000, $2200, and $3,000 a few years ago would have been considered the sort of wacko predictions voiced only by doom-and-gloom gold-bugs.\nBut, of course, gold is no exception to the rule that once you double the price of anything, people start to sit up and take notice. Gold, a commodity that was considered an obsolete dinosaur among financial mavens when trading in the $250s, becomes of keen interest at $500+.\nSo is the old saying true, that everyone loves a winner? It would certainly be a bad sign in itself if everybody was in love with gold. Surely there is someone on the bearish side of the equation. Where are those who are skeptical about the old yellow metal keeping themselves these days?\nWhere, in short, is Andy Smith?\nHe\u2019s now at Ridgefield Capital in London, according to a roundtable discussion about gold\u2019s recent price rise published in the Business Times Singapore on December 17th. Other participants included Marc Faber from the above-cited Barron\u2019s article, Robert Pringle of the World Gold Council, and the always-quotable Mr. Smith.\nIf you\u2019re not familiar with Andy Smith, think of him as the poet laureate of the gold bears. He has a wicked way with the English language, and much of what he says is provocatively aimed at the comfortable biases and assumptions held by many traditional gold bulls.\nA lot of pro-gold people tend to get mad at Andy because, in some ways, he is attacking their personal belief system. We think that Andy is always worth listening to because, whether you agree with him or not, he always takes gold seriously. His commentary is often more entertaining than anything coming from than that of many of gold\u2019s cheering section.\nThe full text of this discussion can be found at 321gold.com, or at the Business Times website. A representative sample of Andy\u2019s comments follow:\n\u201cGold has always been money to half the world outside 'The West', whose financial choices are constrained, and whose lives are more 'nasty, brutal and short', as Hobbes once put it. Are we in 'The West' frightened or financially straitjacketed enough, even after 9/11, to think this 'Eastern' about gold? I don't think so. In fact, the chances are that as choices in 'The East' progress from 'life or death' to 'which plastic card is best', gold's monetary heartland will be hollowed out. China, for example, consumes less gold now than a decade or two ago, even as living standards have tripled. 'Blame' the progress serum of banks, equity markets, life insurance and low inflation. In 'The West' champions of gold born again as money are either buyers late in the rally (needing a profound reason for their tardy participation), visceral opponents of the 'American Way' (investing with their anti-Bush/dollar biases, not their heads), or believers in the original sin of paper money (nostalgic for a flatter earth).\u201d\nMake note of Andy\u2019s comments here, as we enter the fifth year of gold\u2019s bull market. One of these days, maybe he\u2019ll be right!",

        "raw_content": "Hello all! Thank you to On Top Down Under for having me on today to share my new release, In Over Our Heads, the second book in the Stories from the Shore series. Anthony Vallen had a featured role in All the Way to Shore, the first book in the series, as the believer in happy endings who urged his cousin Jonathan to be brave and follow his heart. And Jonathan and Marco eventually overcame many obstacles to get to their happily ever after.\nNow it\u2019s Anthony\u2019s turn. Even though he\u2019s a believer in romance, Anthony never would have believed his second chance would happen on a vacation in Key West. He, Jonathan, Marco, and Sophia (Marco\u2019s sister) walk into a bar that is owned by Walter Elkins, Anthony\u2019s high school boyfriend, and also the boy who broke Anthony\u2019s heart. Add in scuba diving, snorkeling, and a hurricane, and it\u2019s clear that both Anthony and Walter are in deep waters!\nDo you have a writing schedule or do you just write when you can find the time? I work 32 hours a week so most of my writing takes place on my 3 days off. I fantasize about getting up at some ungodly hour like 5 a.m. to write before work, but given I\u2019m not at my best in the morning\u2014actually, barely human until after a few cups of coffee\u2014I don\u2019t see that happening.\nBriefly describe the writing process. Do you create an outline first? Do you seek out inspirational pictures, video, or music? Do you let the words flow and then go back to try to make some sense of them? I\u2019m much more of a plotter than a \u201cpantser\u201d so I always start with an outline. There\u2019s a terrific book called Romancing the Beat that I use to organize my romance plots. I also write a back story for each main character, including the key experiences that have caused them to struggle with loving or being loved. I usually have a picture of how my characters look and sometimes find an image online that reminds me of them. But it\u2019s mostly the plot outline and the back story that inspires me. At that point I can let the words flow.\nWhat\u2019s harder, naming your characters, creating the title for your book, or the cover design process? Naming the characters is pretty easy but I keep a file of all the character names in previous stories so I don\u2019t forget and use the same name twice! The title is trickier\u2014I usually don\u2019t have the title until the story is mostly written. It generally just comes to me out of whatever is in the story. The cover design in the hardest and I\u2019m so lucky in having fabulous cover artists like L.C. Chase to work with. Her covers for this series and my Serpentine series are breathtaking!\nDo you have any advice for all the aspiring writers out there? Believe in yourself. When I started writing fiction I had to overcome the little voice in my head saying \u201cThis is garbage!\u201d (And first drafts ARE garbage, so don\u2019t worry about that.) Ask for help. I never would have gotten to where I am today as a writer without the generous support of so many fellow writers and readers who read my work and gave me feedback and encouragement. Keep going. Persistence is key. Don\u2019t worry that what you\u2019re writing isn\u2019t great at first. That\u2019s what editing is all about. But you can\u2019t edit nonexistent words. So don\u2019t give up.\nCJane is the author of the award-winning Serpentine Series, New Adult contemporary novels set at the University of Virginia. Serpentine Walls was a 2014 Rainbow Awards finalist, Aidan\u2019s Journey was a 2015 EPIC Awards finalist, and Sex, Love, and Videogames won first place in the New Adult category in the 2016 Swirl Awards and first place in Contemporary Fiction in the 2017 EPIC eBook Awards.",

        "raw_content": "LOUISVILLE, Ky. (May 31, 2016) \u2013Jason Dorsey, a bestselling author, world-renowned speaker and researcher, will deliver a keynote address at the Green Industry and Equipment Expo (GIE+EXPO) and Hardscape North America, the world\u2019s largest trade show for the garden, lawn and outdoor power equipment industries, held October 19-21, 2016 at the Kentucky Expo Center.\nBilled as The Gen Y Guy\u00ae, Dorsey\u2019s engaging keynote will give dealers insights on how to sell to their customers \u2013 whether they\u2019re baby boomers or millennials. Selling to each generation at the same time means the difference between fast growth and potentially millions in lost sales. Dorsey, a bestselling Gen Y author at age 18 and winner of the Entrepreneur of the Year award at age 25, will address generational trends and how to sell to the different age groups.\n\u201cThe addition of Jason to our lineup shows how GIE+EXPO and Hardscape North America continue to evolve in both prestige and relevancy for attendees,\u201d said Kris Kiser, President and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), and the majority partner in the mega trade show.\nDorsey will deliver the dealer kick off keynote address on Wednesday, Oct. 19, 1:30-3 p.m. Dealer registration includes admission to the keynote at no additional charge. The session is sponsored by Gravely and STIHL. Following the Dorsey\u2019s keynote, the tradeshow will open exclusively for dealers, distributors, retailers and media from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. with a show floor reception beginning at 5 p.m.\nKiser expects the show will again shatter attendance records this year. \u201cWe continue to work to expand GIE+EXPO and Hardscape North America. Not just in size, but in scope and depth,\u201d said Kiser. He noted that the show announced earlier this year the addition of UTV University, a specialized training series led by power sports business experts for dealers selling utility task vehicles.\nGIE+EXPO and Hardscape North America broke records last year with more than 21,000 attendees from around the world, representing an 11 percent increase over the previous year. In 2015, GIE+EXPO\u2019s footprint was 1.35 million square feet, over 30 acres and the size of 27 football fields.\nVIDEO: Watch Jason Dorsey discuss marketing to the generation after the millennials as part of TEDx: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4f16o9Q0XGE\nAbout GIE+EXPO\nGIE+EXPO is an annual event sponsored by the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, Inc.

        "raw_content": "Posts Tagged \u2018Naloxone\u2019\nThe Epidemic That Hurts Us All. By Our Student Pharmacist, Doug Gugel-Bryant.\nThere\u2019s an elephant in the room. This elephant is killing humans and eliciting fear on a massive scale. The only way to get rid of this elephant is to talk about it.\nThe \u201celephant\u201d I\u2019m referring to is the opioid and heroin abuse problem. This abuse situation is plaguing every part of America, especially here in Ohio.\nI\u2019ll give you a fact: heroin kills at least twenty-three Ohioans every week. That number translates to one out of every five Ohio residents knowing someone who is struggling with heroin.\nWe have a huge problem on our hands.\nIt would help to understand how this problem happened with a bit of a heroin history lesson. It\u2019s fair to say that heroin has always been an issue, but it has grown over the past decade. Heroin is derived from the opium that is extracted from the poppy plant (papiver somniferum). Heroin was first manufactured in 1898 by Bayer for treatment of tuberculosis and morphine addiction. It was discovered that using heroin to fix addiction problems created a new problem that hasn\u2019t stopped for over one hundred years.\nThe reason heroin was thought to be used for morphine addiction is that heroin is chemically similar to other opiates used for pain. That means heroin has the same overall action as opioids, but a different intensity of the action, also called potency. Heroin is about 4-5 times more potent than morphine, which is why people use it to get high. The feeling of the high from heroin creates a euphoric state that eliminates sensations, such as pain. The more heroin you consume, the stronger the high and the less pain you feel.\nThe concerning issue of using too much heroin comes from the other effects heroin can have on the body. Remember how I said heroin reduces sensations? Another sensation your body loses is the \u201csense\u201d to breathe when you are low on oxygen. This is where overdose causes death.\nWe\u2019ve seen an increase in overdoses over the past few years. In 2015, there were just under 14,000 deaths from heroin overdose. That\u2019s twice as many deaths compared to cocaine. This is a growing problem and hasn\u2019t shown any signs of slowing down. This is where you can step in. Law makers have been combatting the issue along with first responders and officers trying to keep people safe. But waiting for a paramedic or other first responder to arrive on the scene takes time\u2013and in overdose situations, we don\u2019t have the liberty of letting time slip by.\nThere are two things you, with little or no background in medicine, can do right now to save a life.\nRecognize the signs and symptoms of an overdose: I hope you never have to come across someone who has overdosed on heroin. But if you do, I want you to act appropriately to save someone\u2019s life. The first step is knowing if someone could have overdosed. Since opioids and heroin are related, they share the same signs and symptoms of an overdose. You can follow the rules below if you suspect someone has overdosed on heroin or any opioid.\nUse the antidote, naloxone: There is a medication that can correct an overdose to heroin. That medication is called naloxone (brand name Narcan). Naloxone is an opioid antagoinist, meaning it tries to kick heroin off of the receptors in the brain where it binds and reverse the overdose. While this is great, it is a short lived action. The heroin can come back in and re-bind to the receptors and cause symptoms of the overdose again. The purpose of naloxone is to buy time for the paramedics to reach the scene and take over. Any time spared can save a life.\nI stated you should use the antidote, because naloxone can be purchased without a prescription from a pharmacy. This was recently allowed by new laws in the hopes that lives could be saved. An entire list of every pharmacy that sells naloxone can be found at this link.\nhttp://pharmacy.ohio.gov/Licensing/NaloxonePharmacy.aspx\nLikewise, to find information about overdoses and how to use naloxone, please refer to Project DAWN (Deaths Avoided With Naloxone) for various resources.\nhttp://www.odh.ohio.gov/health/vipp/drug/ProjectDAWN.aspx\nWe live in a time that is plagued with bad news. Whether it is politics, foreign affairs, or events close to home, life recently hasn\u2019t been fun. Let\u2019s do our part to bring good news\u2013\u201canother life saved from heroin.\u201d\nReichle C, Smith G, Gravenstein J, Macris S, Beecher H.

        "raw_content": "H07: Horizon and Height\nFigure H07.1: Two graphics to explain the visibility of a lighthouse to a Navigator.\nQ: We know that, in principle, a lighthouse needs to be seen as far away as possible. But how far is that?\nLet's assume we have a very powerful light that can be seen on the moon! What is it that stops our lighthouse from being seen on the other side of the Earth? Well, the fact that the Earth is curved, of course. The horizon is what limits the distance at which you can see the light from the lighthouse. But the distance to the horizon depends upon how high the light is. The higher the light, the further away is the horizon. So you prefer to have a tall lighthouse than a short one. You might decide to put a short lighthouse on top of a tall cliff. The height of the tower is small, but it is the height of the light that matters and the higher the cliff, the farther away the light can be seen.\nFigure H07.2: A schematic diagram showing how to calculate the distances of visibility of objects on the Earth.\nHave a look at Figure 1, in which we show the Earth, with the centre of the Earth at O and a lighthouse at A. The radius of the Earth is OA, which is known to be 6371 Km. Let us assume that the lighthouse is 30 metres high, represented by AB. Our first question is: How far away can the lighthouse be seen? The answer is simple when we realise that (using metres throughout) we can use the Theorem of Pythagoras,\ni.e., BE2= OB2 - OE2\nso BE2= (6371030 x 6371030) - (6371000 x 6371000)\ni.e. BE = 19.55 Km\nNow the Captain or Navigator of a ship himself has elevation above the sea - let's say he is 10 metres above the sea. Using the same calculations, we find that, for the Captain, the distance DE to the horizon is 11.3 Km. The distances are additive, so to the Captain, the lighthouse appears to be at a distance DE + EB, that is, 31 Km, providing the brightness of the light is sufficient. With modern equipment, this is always the case when weather conditions are good.\nUnfortunately, things are never as simple as we would like. The lighthouse may have been built on a high clifftop, and the high ground is frequently shrouded in fog and cloud, especially in bad weather. So if the cliff is too high, the lighthouse is frequently hidden by the cloud and you can't see it at all, not even from close by.\nThere are many examples of where the lighthouse builders got it wrong. The old Lundy Island lighthouse was built high up on the centre of the island but seamen frequently reported that they could not see it. Today, the lighthouse is disused, replaced by two lighthouse at a lower height, one at each end of the island.\nIn parts of the world where the weather is variable, lights are rarely more than 70 to 100 metres above sea level and one of the world's tallest lighthouse at sea level is 75 metres high, at Genoa in Italy.\nFigure H07.3: The Belle Toute lighthouse was built on the top of the magnificent cliffs at Beachy Head.\nFigure H07.4: Although Belle Toute lighthouse had a very great range in principle, it was so often shrouded in mist and fog that in 1900 a new lighthouse was built at the foot of the cliffs. This is the Beachy Head lighthouse.",

        "raw_content": "Terrorism and the Election\nDoes bin Laden want Kerry to Win?\nThe administration has trotted out its newest sophistry. (Well, it\u2019s been floating around for awhile, but it\u2019s suddenly being pushed hard.) It goes like this: the al Qaeda attack on trains in Madrid affected Spanish elections, causing Spain to elect an administration that is softer on terrorism than the previous one. Therefore it is likely that al Qaeda will try to strike in the U.S. before our elections in order to influence our election, specifically by bringing it about that we elect a Democratic Kerry administration that will be softer on terrorism than a Republican Bush administration.\n(I want to make it clear that what I\u2019m saying here should be taken with a grain of salt. The relentless mendacity of the Bush administration has, I often worry, driven me over the edge. I\u2019m so angry at the administration that I even take my own judgments about it with grains of salt. So you should do likewise. Nevertheless, I think that what follows is true. Else I wouldn\u2019t write it.)\nMany Republicans honestly believe that Bush would be more effective against terrorism than Kerry would be, and they think that al Qaeda knows this. Consequently they believe that al Qaeda has an interest in trying to help Kerry get elected. Other Republicans don\u2019t believe this, but are saying it anyway for political purposes. And lots of Republicans actually believe it, but they believe it because they have talked themselves into doing so.\nI, like many others, however, believe that the Bush administration has botched the conflict with al Qaeda. In fact, I cannot imagine any plausible course of action that could have been more disastrous. This administration was so eaten up with derision for the Clinton administration that it ignored their warnings about al Qaeda. They ignored their own PDBs indicating that an attack in the U.S. was imminent, and consequently did nothing to prevent 9/11. After 9/11, the administration radically overreacted. It first pushed for passage of the Patriot Act, doing bin Laden\u2019s work for him by undermining the very liberal principles that he is trying to destroy. Then the administration squandered the good will the rest of the world had for us after 9/11, alienating our allies and, in fact, the rest of the world by\u2014among other things\u2014attacking Iraq on obviously trumped-up charges about WMDs, and by announcing that anyone who wasn\u2019t with us was against us. Worse, by failing to commit enough and the right kind of troops at Tora Bora Bush allowed a cornered and wounded bin Laden to escape our grasp.\nStunning, astounding, incredible as those failures are, they all pale in comparison to the Administration\u2019s greatest error. Failing to decapitate al Qaeda at Tora Bora was a blunder of historical proportions, but the reason the administration failed to do so is even more astounding: they wanted to preserve our troops for an attack elsewhere. If the planned attack had been against a more dangerous enemy, then this would have been rational. But, of course, it wasn\u2019t. Even had we allowed bin Laden to slip away merely because we didn\u2019t want to commit enough troops, or because we didn\u2019t want to undertake such an expensive effort, this would have merely been an act of astounding incompetence. But instead the administration withheld troops in order to strike elsewhere. And, again, if the country we ultimately attacked had merely been unconnected with bin Laden in any way, this action would have merely been tragically idiotic. But no. The Bush administration allowed bin Laden to escape so that we could attack one of bin Laden\u2019s enemies, the man bin Laden himself called \u201ca bad Muslim.\u201d\nImagine bin Laden\u2019s relief\u2014and disbelief. To get a sense for it, I suppose you\u2019d have to contemplate something like the following scenario: you have been wounded and cornered, without hope of escape, by a ravenous tiger. You see it approach your for the kill\u2026but, as you prepare to make peace with your maker, the tiger not only turns and runs away, but runs into the next county and eats somebody you really hate. Greater good fortune bin Laden could not have imagined. But, of course, there\u2019s more. Incredibly, we have yet even to mention the worst of it. Not only did the Bush administration let bin Laden escape, not only did they attack and depose his great enemy, not only did they alienate our allies and anger the rest of the world, but on top of it all they galvanized the Muslim world against us and created a recruiting goldmine for al Qaeda. Greater incompetence and a more resounding failutre can hardly be imagined.\nI\u2019ve toyed with the idea that bin Laden planned it all this way. At first I dismissed this idea because I thought it unlikely that he was smart enough to formulate such a plan. Now I reject the idea because I think it unlikely that he\u2019s stupid enough. He would have to have predicted that the U. S. would undertake almost the worst conceivable course of action at almost every point. Incredibly, of course, that is exactly what we did do. Only an idiot would have predicted it.\nI\u2019ve heard reports that, when bin Laden and his evil minions got word that the WTC had actually collapsed after the attacks, he said that he had hoped, but not expected, that this would happen. Perhaps he might say something similar about our actions since 9/11. On second thought, I doubt that he hoped or even envisioned the overwhelming victory we have handed him thus far. Again, he simply isn\u2019t that stupid.\nIf we look back\u2014or if bin Laden were to look back\u2014to where we all stood on September 12th 2001, looking forward to 2004, what we would see would be a spectrum of possibilities, some better for us, some better for bin Laden. But from that perspective, a reasonable person would have predicted that the real possibilities ranged from a total victory for the U.S. to\u2014just possibly, and on the worst end of the spectrum of possibilities\u2014a more limited victory, with al Qaeda more-or-less intact, but badly wounded. I doubt that any reasonable person could have predicted that 2004 would find bin Laden still at large, al Qaeda largely intact and deluged with recruits, our allies resentful and distant, and America deeply divided. And this is not yet even to mention the fact that polls show that most Iraqis see us as occupiers rather than liberators, and that picture and videotapes showing torture of Iraqi prisoners by American troops are almost guaranteed to make that situation worse.\nSo when the Bushies say or\u2014as they more often do\u2014slyly suggest that bin Laden will try to influence the election in order to remove Bush from office, I suggest we remind them of the facts above. Even if bin Laden is dumb enough to think that Bush is more dangerous to him than Kerry would be, let us hope that the American people are not.\nNews Flash: Blogging to Resume Soon\nSince the WaPo and NYT have neglected to announce this, I guess I'll just have to do it myself: Philosoraptor blogging should resume in something at least vaguely resembling earnest next week. So, for the 20 or so of you still kind enough to be checking in from time to time, you'll actually have something different to read soon.\nCurrent Events and Political Affiliation: A Wee Quiz:\n1. I believe that the humiliation and abuse of Iraqi prisoners by Americans at abu Ghraib prison was:\n(a)\tInhuman and inexcusable\n(b)\tNot a big deal (especially when compared to what Saddam did)\n2. I believe that the decapitation of Nicholas Berg was:\n(b)\tNot a big deal (especially given that it was in retaliation for the abuse at abu Ghraib)\nHow to score this quiz:\nIf you answered (a) to both questions: congratulations! You are a human being.\nIf you answered (a) to question 1 and (b) to question 2: you are a loony lefty.\nIf you answered (b) to question 1 and (a) to question 2: you are a total wingnut.\nIf you answered (b) to both questions: you are an absolute psycho.

The Motorcycle Safety Foundation\u00ae is the internationally recognized developer of the comprehensive, research-based, Rider Education and Training System (MSF RETS). RETS curricula promotes lifelong-learning for motorcyclists and continuous professional development for certified RiderCoaches and other trainers. MSF also actively participates in government relations, safety research, public awareness campaigns and the provision of technical assistance to state training and licensing programs. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation is a national, not-for-profit organization sponsored by BMW, BRP, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki, Triumph, Victory, and Yamaha.\nThese courses are usually held over the weekend, and consist of one evening session of classroom education followed by two days of hands on training and practice in a controlled environment.\nThe Motorcycle Safety Foundation is a non profit group funded through donations from within the powersports industry as well as from private individuals. Student fees are very reasonable.\nThe mission of the MSF is to make motorcycling safer and more enjoyable by ensuring access to lifelong quality education and training for current and prospective riders, and by advocating a safer riding environment.\nThe course will provide you with all of the necessary skills to safely and legally ride your motorcycle on the street, even if you have never ridden before.\nAside from the basic safety gear, they provide all the training materials and the motorcycles. While most participants bring their own, helmets are usually available. You do not have to own a motorcycle to take the course.\nBy the end of the second day of hands on training, your instructors will put you through the paces and in most states, their certification of passing the class is all you need. If you take the class, you don\u2019t have to schedule a separate appointment with your licensing agency to take the test.\nThe courses are taught by riders that are dedicated to helping others enjoy riding a motorcycle as much as they do. RiderCourse Instructors are trained and certified through the RiderCoach Preparation Coach.\nWhether you own a big v-twin touring bike and have been riding for decades, or are a novice considering a scooter for your errands, I suggest the Basic RiderCourse. I took the class through a local community college a few years ago. One of our instructors was a big burly biker, and the other was a motorcycle cop. Both were very knowledgeable, warm hearted, and made taking the class in sub freezing temperatures fun.\nGetting pulled over for riding a motorcycle without a license is bad news. You could be looking at a license suspension, hefty fines, and maybe even having your bike hauled off to the impound yard. You don\u2019t want to know how they treat bikes in the impound yards around here.\nRiding a motorcycle is a privilege, not a right.",

        "raw_content": "We are big proponents of pressure washers because they are powerful and efficient types of cleaning equipment. Our power washing service in Wesley Chapel include siding, roofing, sidewalks, patios, hardscapes, and more. We\u2019ll remove dirt, mildew, grime, black stains, and buildup from your home or business surfaces without damage.\nYou can get a pressure washer to clean almost any outdoor item. Pressure washers run a pump that adds pressure to creates a strong force. This force can be powered by electric motors or gas engines. The higher the pressure (psi), the tougher the jobs they can tackle. Both electric and gas pressure washers require a steady, uninterrupted supply of water by the gallon. For occasional use, a washer with a pressure range of 1,300 to 2,400 psi will work just fine.\nElectric pressure washers deliver about 1,300 psi and are the best choice for light-duty cleaning. They are generally cheaper, lighter, and more portable than gas-powered pressure washers. Most industrial-use pressure washers are gas-powered, delivering higher water pressure at more than 3,000 psi. Gas powered pressure washers are best for bigger jobs and are more expensive.\nWhat Can You Pressure Wash?\nExterior Siding or Brick\nWood Decks/Patios\nDrain, duct, and gutters\nExtends the Life of Your Exterior\nA pressure washer can do the cleaning job effortlessly and in a timely manner. For example, grills get filthy after use and you can use a pressure washer to wash your grill. Just as in the case of the grill, aspects of your property may not need to be replaced if it gets a good cleaning. After all, it\u2019s always surprising to see how much better a home exterior looks when clean.\nImproves Your Home or Business\nRecognize the importance of curb appeal and a clean front entrance because it will bring up the value and impression of your property.

The European Commission Cooperative Support Programme (EC-SP) started in 1981 to support IAEA activities in the field of nuclear safeguards. Since its beginning, the EC-SP has been operated by the European Commission\u2019s Joint Research Centre in close collaboration and coordination with the European Commission\u2019s Directorate General for Energy \u2013 Directorate Nuclear Safeguards implementing the EURATOM treaty. EC-SP tasks provide technology and expertise in technical areas related to the effective implementation of safeguards verification measures including the detection of undeclared materials, activities, and facilities. The EC-SP fosters cooperation with Support Programmes from European Union Member States, as well as with non-EU states with which the European Commission has specific research and development agreements, e.g., the United States Department of Energy, ABACC. Information on the research and development activities under these frameworks is shared with the IAEA and complements core EC-SP work. The paper describes the EC-SP, its modus operandi, collaborations, and main activities, namely, (a) the specific R work as part of tasks with well-defined milestones and deadlines, (b) training activities; (c) the technical support in establishing Safeguards guidelines and approaches and (d) the technical consultancy support to IAEA meetings and expert groups.",

        "raw_content": "Guilt? No Thanks.\nIt's about this time every year that I wonder why in the world so many people are \"RIP\"ing Summer. Not me. Not. One. Bit. It is crazy, wicked, stupid hot in Texas come August. Going outside causes every single pore to ooze sweat. This is apparently the sweat that calls the attention of every mosquito in Texas. The pools feel more like hot tubs. If that's not enough, every single activity has been crossed off the summer to do list.\nAnd so we find ourselves at the end of Summer and the blessed holiday known as Back to School. That's right. I said, \"holiday.\" You might not consider it as such, but when I have three days to myself to focus on my hobbies, my To Do lists and my reading lists, that indeed counts as a holiday. Sure, there are the moms that wish Summer could last forever, but I am not one of them. I love my littles and I am a firm believer that absence makes the heart grow fond. I will NOT have any guilt over the unshed tear on the first day of school. I will instead rejoice in the new journey of life with a 2nd grader and a Pre-K nugget.\nSo to all you moms out there feeling guilty for the excitement that precedes and continues through the new school year, know that you are not alone. If you don't believe me, check out these posts from Jen Hatmaker and Momastery. There is no need to feel guilty or compare yourself to the sorrowful mommy at the school drop-off. Parenting is a hard job, especially when you are on duty 24-7 for three full months. Give yourself a break and remember that the hours between 3pm - 8pm will not be filled with eating bon-bons. It's called grace - let's all dive in.\nTell me, are you ringing in the new school year or donning black for your time of mourning? xo\n*hooray pennant via etsy\nLabels: kids, ramblings, summer\nI agree. There are things I love about summer. But really we are all ready for some consistency and a schedule is going to help us a lot.\nYes and Amen!! I am all set, yet a little sorry to see them go. I am sending an 8th grader, 6th and 2nd grader off in the morning!! So happy, yet a little tender about the 8th and 6th graders!! Where did the time go?\nAlas, yay for more time though and fist bumps to my homegirl Jen H. for always keeping it real, real.\nRachel B August 21, 2013 at 8:26 AM\nFun filled summer and I'm ready!\na bit of both. mourning the homeschool life and watching them fit into the public school life again.",

Funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, this project will take place over a period of 15 months.\nThe heritage sector has traditionally depended heavily on seniors for its volunteer needs. In the absence of paid staff and other resources, many essential tasks are performed by older members of society. Quebec\u2019s English-speaking community is particularly vulnerable to demographic changes. This is especially true in outlying regions, where the community is aging, and where youth out-migration is endemic. FOREVER aims to provide the heritage sector of English-speaking Quebec with the capacity to increase both the number of volunteers working in the sector, and the quality of their contributions. Local museums, historical societies and other heritage and cultural institutions will be strengthened as a result of this initiative, while the communities they serve will benefit by the services and opportunities for personal enrichment that they provide.\nFOREVER will be focusing on developing programming designed to foster interest in the heritage sector among potential volunteers from all parts of the population, including youth. Working with experts from different fields, QAHN and its partners will explore innovative ways to attract new volunteers, and offer guidance to organizations experiencing volunteer fatigue, thus helping to ensure the long-term viability of these institutions and the communities they serve.\nProject activities will take place across Quebec, and will include a needs-assessment survey of workers and volunteers; a series of one-day conferences; community outreach; and the production of field guides for heritage-sector volunteers. Leading this initiative will be veteran QAHN project managers Dwane Wilkin and Heather Darch.",

        "raw_content": "BEE BAXTER\n(Beatrice Meyer)\nRadio and TV producer and talent\n1929-1983 - length of her broadcasting and journalism career\nWritten by Roger N. Meyer (Bee's son)\nThese sound files contain program content from two periods of radio broadcasts on KSTP AM -- NBC, (1500) Minneapolis/St. Paul (1935-1945; 1952-1956) and KSOO-AM -- MBS (1140). Sioux Falls, S.D. (1945-1952). Her KSTP program titles were The Household Forum and the Saturday Smorgasbord. During her seven years in Sioux Falls, her program was simply called The Bee Baxter Program. Broadcasts in the Twin Cities took place from the KSTP studios, while Baxter's half hour broadcasts in Sioux Falls emanated from her home address kitchen via a dedicated phone line hookup between the microphone amplifier and transmitter located in the family kitchen, and the station downtown on some three miles away where Murray Stewart, the studio announcer, opened and closed the show. On occasion Baxter did a rare studio broadcast at KSOO. The Meyer household was usually too overwhelmed with the sound and activities of her children that Baxter could not do her office work there, so her sojourns downtown were primarily dedicated to composing her own advertising copy and meeting with advertisers and the station's tiny staff.\nWith the exception of the \"Baxter Send-off\" recorded in early Spring, 1945, all transcriptions presented here were from live or pre-recorded broadcasts. By the time of her last radio broadcasts from KSTP, they were all pre-recorded but because of Baxter's extensive experience with live broadcasting, there was no need to edit her programs for false starts or excessive length.\nA side note on International Wartime Broadcasts (WWII)\nBaxter was one of a handful of radio voices from non-network-headquartered flagship stations in New York or Los Angeles to appear regularly during World War II on an exchange of transcriptions between the BBC broadcasters in England and local talent on NBC affiliate stations. During those years, NBC prepared special 33 RPM 16 inch transcriptions focusing on regular reports from its affiliate stations featuring the small details of life in America and sent them by boat to the BBC. In return, NBC was sent exchange transcriptions recorded by the BBC. During these exchanges and following the war, Baxter developed a friendship with Trudi and Arthur Bliss, the English composer, who in the 1950's became \"Master of the Queen's Musick.\" On Bea's first trip to Europe in 1948, she was a guest of the Blisses, and when Lady Trudi and her husband later toured the United States on vacation and for appearances by her husband at music centers and universities, they stayed at the Meyer household as overnight guests. Trudi took Bea's place as the bed time reader to the Meyer twins the evening of their stay.\nA quick check of the Internet reveals no reference to the exchange transcriptions between NBC and the BBC, although an exhaustive search of thousands of 16inch 33 RPM transcriptions donated by NBC radio to the Library of Congress in the late 1960's may contain samples of these broadcasts.\nThe Personal Nature of these Transcriptions\nBaxter was not in the habit of recording her broadcasts for posterity, although the personal events of her twins' birth in 1942 and her third child in 1948 led station personnel to record these broadcasts for her home use. The half-hour transcription of her 1950 KSOO Thanksgiving show was more typical of her annual holiday season shows recorded at the family piano in living room with the microphone perched close by.\nTranscriptions of her shorter programs, such as an interview with Dr. Mary McCleod Bethune, legendary Afro-American educator and civil rights activist, were special; however on the same transcription could be found a snippet revealing the kind of disk jockey she ended up becoming by the end of her radio days at KSTP. The same is true of a shamelessly personal guest appearance of her son with \"his\" music when he was thirteen, and available during an Easter holiday break to join his mother in the studio. \"Showcasing his music\" was her idea. Listening to it some 53 years later, her son finds it a real \"teeth clencher.\" And yes, he was as bad as that!\nWhen she suddenly announced her intention to leave KSTP in 1945, her two KSTP radio show staffs custom-produced a never-broadcast \"Send-off.\" Featured in the recording were the station's music director Leonard Leigh (organ), Jimmy Valentine -the shows' principal announcer -- Cal Karnstedt and several other announcers.\nEarly 1950's Upheavals in the Broadcast Industry\nWhen she returned to the Twin Cities in the early summer of 1952, Baxter embarked on her TV broadcast career. She wasn't \"new talent or a new face,\" but she was a known talent who didn't require extensive and expensive publicity to re-introduce her to the station's viewers. Her show was broadcast live at a time when network broadcasts during mid-day hours on local television stations were few. Many local stations did not have the depth of staff or studio space set aside for high volume live broadcasts during that time, so they broadcast test patterns or nothing at all to fill the the programming void Her show lasted for three years.\nBy the mid-fifties, video recording recording technology introduced major industry-changes, starting first with the \"splash\" of expensive, well-produced national network programs were sent by coaxial cable to local stations for taping and viewing at the same local time slot throughout the country. During this period, aging and less photogenic talent disappeared from the local airwaves. For the better part of the 1950's local stations were reluctant to take on or keep more controversial \"left leaning\" talent. Unfortunately, Baxter qualified for the axe on both counts.\nMany local personalities lost their jobs during this time of homogenization of local programming at the same time national television programming was in its ascendancy. Others lost their jobs because of minor scandals in their personal lives which could no longer be kept secret from local listeners and viewers. Baxter's known and vivaciously expressed \"liberal\" interests may have been part of the reason she left KSTP, as by the time she left she had lost her locally produced half hour live-broadcast show, and was down to half hour and then fifteen minutes of radio broadcasting on KSTP AM.\nContributor to NBC Monitor Radio 1955 - 1958\nIn 1955, when she still had a resonance with the radio listening audience in the Twin Cities, she began a series of stringer audio spot submissions to NBC Monitor Radio, the new, experimental weekend service of NBC radio news. For each submission, she sent three or four three-minute episodes featuring local color, a special environmental sound or special regional places to visit literally or in listeners' aural imaginations. Her son was her recording engineer. She submitted material \"on spec\" for four years; most of her submissions were broadcast. Her son made no copy of the edited master tape which contained the edited takes separated by leaders as Baxter had no back-up recorder for dubbing. Once the original edited master submission tape was prepared (on a five-inch reel) it was mailed directly to NBC New York. Baxter paid her son a small amount for every three minute tape broadcast on Monitor Radio. He didn't tape them off the air, as he'd heard them many times while editing the raw tapes.\nChange of Pace; Change of Paid Careers\nAfter her departure from commercial television and radio, Baxter tried a couple of full-time alternative careers. The first was advertising, something she'd always done, but on her own terms. She was hired as an account executive with Campbell Mithun, a local Twin Cities ad agency. It was a disaster, due to her outspokenness and lack of experience in that rarified dog-eat-dog world where she wasn't treated as \"the queen Bee.\" Advertising was a man's-world industry; and her brusque, impulsive style of working was unsuited for the advertising business culture.\nAfter Baxter was fired, she next worked for EMC, a St. Paul corporation whose first studio and production center was located several short blocks away from 3M, the major manufacturer of magnetic audio tape and, for a short time, portable and small-format consumer grade tape recorders. During the mid and late 1950's EMC became an educational audio tape company specializing in language and other spoken word curricula, including studio-produced audio readings of major literary works such as Shakespeare plays. Until local production shops such as EMC were bested by well-financed national publishers, many such small ventures served public schools eager to have their high schoolers familiar with a second language and audio introductions to readings of classical literature.\nBaxter attempted to expand the offerings of EMC to include business management training materials to be combined with live training sessions, but this end of the company's portfolio was a one and a half person enterprise and sputtered out within a year. At that point, Baxter was able to maintain office space at EMC, but developed a small following of management training customers who remained loyal to her even once the family moved from the Twin Cities to Florida in 1964. The den of the family home on Woodlawn Avenue in St. Paul was to remain her \"home office\" as she worked on training and consulting materials for executives and staffs of federal intermediate credit banks and other corporate clients. Once she moved to Florida in 1964, she continued her consultation and training trips to her clients in South St. Paul and Atlanta for three or four years.\nCommunity Television and Radio Career\nStarting with her departure from KSTP in the mid 1950's, Baxter joined volunteers operating out of a two story wooden WWII barracks building at the St. Paul campus of the University of Minnesota for newly licensed KTCA-TV, channel 2. Dr. John Schwartzwalder, the station manager, had been hired away from commercial television by the KTCA board of directors to spearhead the operation's birth. It was not an easy birth, as during its early years, KTCA had an uncomfortably close relationship with the University of Minnesota College of Education which looked upon KTCA as a broadcast and production vehicle to make live video programming available for its student teachers. KTCA produced and broadcast a number of educational classes, but later balked at expanding this non-starter as its board realized the broadcasts themselves were turnoffs to its tiny non-student, public audience.\nFor years, KTCA had problems ginning up a decent non-university audience share, which was reflected in its poor subscription numbers and shallow fundraising base. Physically moving the station out of University quarters didn't resolve the station's problems. While some degree of separation was possible for the station, KTCA still failed to command a growing market share. Finally, Schwartzwalder was encouraged to abandon the helm long after it was realized that he could not manage independent development of the station as a community service rather than a classroom adjunct supporting the University.\nDuring her two years as a producer and host of a weekly show featuring local community pundits, expansion of the station's programming did not improve fast enough for her. She began to develop fund raising approaches designed to help the station become financially independent of Twin City school districts and its colleges. By the time of her departure to Florida in 1964, her efforts weren't enough to develop the community groundswell needed to support an independent programming base for the station. Furthermore, she was no match for the internecine scuffles and house politics of the new medium of educational and community broadcasting. As a self-educated woman without an advanced degree, she was no match for professional educators or for a new kind of broadcasting featuring management and sponsors with Ed.D's and Ph.D.'s.\nUpon her move to Florida in 1964, she joined a group of volunteers involved in the early stages of establishing Miami's new educational television station. Having learned some important lessons about funding a public television station and keeping a board of director's vision clear of the education industry establishment, she became better known for her fund raising campaigns and rallying of the troops than for her broadcasting skills. She also realized one thing about herself that took a good sixty years to recognize: she was a sprinter, not a long-distance runner. She was good at getting projects started, but was a poor \"maintenance person.\" She also recognized that as a small fish in a big pond she could not command the attention of people well-established in a community to which she was a new addition.\nDenied broadcast time on Miami station as a \"trouble making upstart,\" she furthered her interests as an outspoken civil rights advocate off the air but very much in the public eye.\nUpon her family's arrival in Miami and in deference to her husband's long-time affiliation with Reform Judaism, she joined a Reform Jewish synagogue. However, 1964 was at a time of maximum social upheaval in the deep south, and within a couple of years she cut her ties with the socially conservative, racist Jewish community and joined the Unitarian Universalist church out of disgust at the backwards-looking social values openly expressed by Miami's Jewish community leaders. She became an uncompromising force in the Miami civil rights journalism community, and as with other locations in which the family lived, she wrote a regular column in the Miami Herald newspaper that was biting, witty, and \"right on.\" Just as she had done when living in Sioux Falls, whenever she moved, she arranged to find column space in local newspapers. Even when back at work in broadcasting or business, she wrote a regular column in one or more small community papers.\nAs her remaining child at home left for college in Washington DC, Baxter had earlier seen both parents (long-time residents of Miami) pass away. Baxter and her husband looked for a way to escape Miami's repressive summer heat and find a way to address the challenges of having to deal with one another with fewer family distractions. They found it in Maine.\nWith the family's purchase of a second \"summer home\" outside of Norway, Maine in the mid-1970's, Baxter wheedled some occasional summer time on a small 1000 watt local AM station. By the time she re-entered small-town commercial AM radio, it had become a brain-dead wasteland devoid of experienced talent and viewed by its owners as a shrinking revenue source from an increasingly turned-off listener base. She made a few friends among people she met on her long walks down the fire roads surrounding the lake, but she was clearly losing her edge. Because she was just a summer guest in a sleepy little town, local people did not take easily to a fast-talking, strident stranger in their midst.\nJust after having arrived in May 1980 from Florida her husband of 42 years died. Baxter quickly arranged to have her oldest daughter -- then in Florida -- sell the family home in Miami. With the moving truck on the way to Maine, Baxter bought a small two-story cottage in South Paris, a \"suburb\" of Norway. For several years she kept the summer camp cottage on Penneseewassee Lake only a short drive outside of town. With her increasing age, the task of keeping two homes during the summer finally induced her to sell the lake cottage and set up full-time residence in South Paris. As she settled in for year-around residence, she gardened a bit, read voraciously as she always had, arranged for some regular weekly broadcast time as a guest on Norway's little AM station, and also contributed stories, articles, and commentary in her column \"As I See It\" in The Advertiser Democrat, the local newspaper.\nThe winters were cold and bitter, the roads icy and increasingly difficult to drive because of her diminishing vision due to growing cataracts, and after two winters of residence in Maine, she decided to sell her house and move halfway across the country to where her daughter and two grandchildren lived in El Paso, TX.\nThe move was a bit bumpy. By this time, she had developed a pattern of disaffecting strangers who she couldn't otherwise impress with her writing or radio/TV talent. She had also developed a grandmother's interest in her daughter's children and her daughter's company. El Paso, she did manage to connect with the local educational radio station, and maintained a tenuous volunteer relationship with its management and volunteers. She joined the Unitarian church in El Paso, but her impulsive interruptions during congregation discussions following services, tirades and pronunciamentos coming from a newcomer to the congregation. -- however articulate -- were barely tolerated They were also a clear embarrassment to her daughter. With her health gradually declining, she underwent successful cataract surgery at a local hospital, but became increasingly distraught over her feelings of disconnection with the larger community and having to prove herself all over again to win community acceptance. El Paso was the second community she had settled in permanently in less than three years, and the changes she went through for each move clearly took a toll on her social judgment.\nHer career in community affairs ended with her death in early 1983.\nA Record Breaker without a Record\nDespite her substantial career in the Midwest there is no written record of her early contributions to broadcasting by women whose traditional radio roles were more often relegated to acting as window-dressing and providing audio baubles. Such women were rarely powerful enough to produce their own shows, manage their own advertisers, and write scripts. Despite her having won two separate McCall Magazine awards for outstanding radio journalism and broadcasts of women's issues, an Internet search as of mid 2008 failed to find any written documentation of her long residence and complex broadcast and community affairs careers in the midwest, Florida, Maine, or El Paso.\nShe was no Lucille Ball as a businesswoman. Other than her own talent, she had little to offer the industry other than her personality. When that began to grate on her co-workers in her fields of interest, she was remembered, but always with a mix of emotions. Such memories rarely impel those holding them to repeat them in print.\nA lifetime of Stories\nHer long career in radio broadcasting began at WOW-AM in Omaha at the age of 17, shortly after the station came on the air. She had \"gone east\" after finishing high school in Dell Rapids South Dakota in three years, enrolling in a Connecticut State College to become a teacher. Her behavior must have been challenging -- she was young, bright, cuttingly verbal, and impatient with fools. It was a bad match. School administrators justified her dismissal from the teacher's college due to her having limited vision (lazy eye), a condition she disclosed in the application but not acted by administrators upon until her conduct and attitude must have become a problem. She was out, and halfway across the continent from home in in the midwest. The post war recession of the 1920's had hit the midwest hard, and her parents couldn't send her the train fare to return.\nWith what little money she could scrape up, she enrolled in a secretarial school and learned to type and take shorthand dictation. Her typing was amazing, later topping 140 words a minute. Her stenographic skills were probably acceptable, but armed with a quick wit and an answer for everything, she wended her way back to the midwest, but at first could not face her parents, disappointed at her brilliant start but dramatic failed showing as their first child to have struck out for an education beyond high school. She settled in Omaha, where, within weeks of arriving, she met her first husband and landed her first job as as the talent, producer, and advertising manager of her first radio show, \"In the Playhouse with Jane.\" She was one of the country's youngest female producers and broadcasters at the dawn of the age of AM commercial radio. Her marriage went bad quickly. Her career at WOW ended abruptly with the announcement of her divorce. Her former husband was the favored son of an influential Omaha Jewish family, and the \"scandal of divorce\" was too much for that small community.\nWhile her former husband remained to lick his wounds, she \"had to go\" but a kind word on her behalf was put into the ear of Stanley Hubbard in Minneapolis by the WOW station manager. Hubbard had recently started KSTP in Minneapolis/St. Paul where Bea returned to live under the roof of her parents, an awkward situation for an adult child who had tasted considerable and early freedom away from the family.\nHer Family of Origin\nBeatrice Alma Light/Meyer (1911-1983) was a second generation child born, like her younger brother Dick, of Ukranian/Georgian Jews with thick accents who first settled in New York with their huge families of siblings around the turn of the century. Bea's mother, Mamie Levin, was the eldest of five or six girls, and by tradition in Litvak families, the eldest girl had to be married off before the family could hold weddings for younger female children. Mamie had risen to the position of forelady in a millinery factory, a considerable accomplishment for a first-generation young woman. As newly arrived immigrants, Mamie's parents had done well, running a little store in Brooklyn and living above it, renting out rooms to recently-arrived single immigrants from the old country. Ruben Light, her father, started life in America as a \"Greenhorn\" living in one of the Levin household rooms. It wasn't long before a match was made, much to the relief of all, since Mamie's advancing age threatened to become a burdensome family liability.\nRuben Light and his brothers remained close to one another throughout their lives, but they went on their separate widely scattered ways almost from their arrival in the US. Ruben and his six brothers escaped Russia following the first wave of pogroms mounted by Don Kossaks following the 1905 fizzled Russian revolution. They came to the United States as teenagers and young men without their parents. Each brother fended for himself without the support of an extended family in a new country. In Russia, Ruben had completed his apprenticeship as a glove cutter. Ruben was a \"middle child\" but the most hot-headed of all the brothers in his embrace of socialism and interest in unionizing fellow garment industry workers in the sweatshops where he worked first as a skilled glove maker and then as a highly sought-after pants cutter. Cutters were considered most valued employees -- at the top of their trade -- because their sharp eye and attention to detail matching patterns with the most one could cut from a bolt of cloth made the difference between their employers making or losing money in the cut throat garment business. Shortly after his marriage to Mamie, and with Bea only four years old and her baby brother Dick less than a year old, Ruben sent his little family to Hadlyme Connecticut while he stayed behind to earn money for their keep.\nBecause of his organizing efforts, Ruben was finally run out of New York by hoodlums hired by owners of clothing factories. One or two of Mamie's sisters had settled in Hadlyme, and they welcomed Mamie, Bea and her little brother, but life was not easy in the boarding house in which they lived. In the middle of WWI on the continent, Ruben soon joined his little family. He quickly had to discover a way of making a living in the absence of any industry or factories. He became a peddler, first with a pack on his back, and later driving a cart pulled by a one-eyed horse. This was the beginning of his sales career, but it was not to last. Following the armistice, the entire Eastern seaboard entered the post war recession of 1918. Ruben prevailed upon his brothers -- some of whom had immediately moved to the midwest when they arrived in the US -- to help him move his family to the midwest. His brother Irving came through with money for train fare, and they settled first in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. There was no work, but there was the tantalizing prospect of immigrants starting new business ventures, often because they had nothing to lose in trying.\nThe economic plight of new arrivals in Sioux Falls was so dire that Ruben soon moved his family to Dell Rapids, South Dakota, starting up a luncheonette and diner with that tiny burg's first restaurant AND its first ice cream freezer. Ruben and Mamie struggled and failed with this first venture after two years, and through his brothers' intervention (again), Ruben found himself in Minneapolis, MN, introduced to Phil Seif, a self-made \"tire baron.\" There he joined the sales staff of the tiny company that had only one thing going for it: No one else in the recession-starved midwest farm states was fool enough to think that selling auto and truck tires could be a way to making a good living. Phil Seif did, but it was not easy.\nAll of these new immigrant family perambulations became the grist of Bea's riotous stories about immigrants in a strange land. Her family's adventures served as a rich vein for Bea's stories about her family (complete with accents!). She regaled her staff and fellow broadcasters with hours of recollections from the complete family saga. Featuring Baxter as one never one short for words, the KSTP \"Send-Off\" included in this collection of transcriptions features her inimitable, prolix style.\nHer stories of \"family\" -- never fully published in print -- are found at http://www.rogernmeyer.com/bee_baxter_meyer.html\nRuben worked his way up the sales ranks of Phil Seif's business. When no one else was selling, Ruben could sell anything. Despite the depths of the depression, he became Seif's top on-road salesman in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Iowa and Nebraska. Farmers and small merchants had to eat, and they had to transport their goods on rubber. By the time her father had become indispensable to his employer, Bea had started to carve out her own niche in midwest broadcasting. She had left home at 16, failed at college, but had started her career in broadcasting at WOW AM, Omaha at the age of 17. She returned to the family nest not quite a woman of the world at the age of barely nineteen, but already having had the kind of hard knocks women ten years her senior might have seen had they been equally impulsive and daring.\nDue to family expectations of the time to make the son of the family amount to something, there was less celebration of Bea's talents and proven ability to make her own living than her parents' attention urging her brother Dick to have a station in life. After a brief hiatus in the world of Minneapolis business, Bea's broadcast career had begun in earnest.\nAs his daughter's career took off in Minneapolis, Ruben became increasingly concerned about his only son and asked for family help. He received a loan from his brother Irving --his third \"help out\" from the same brother -- and with his boss's blessing and gift of a tire sales franchise in Sioux Falls, SD, the Lights moved back to the South Dakota's biggest city they had settled in briefly a decade before.\nThis time Ruben had the money, the confidence and the backing from someone in addition to his brother to buy a failing auto parts business, get a good price on its inventory, and create a business position for his playboy son. The time was the mid 1930's. New cars were unaffordable and unreliable. Ruben took his considerable sales talents and knowledge of bargains and resources and first developed a niche market for tire sales. Within several years, he built the business to a point where during WWII, he opened a wrecking yard to glean used but serviceable parts from wrecks during a time when no cars were being built. What couldn't be salvaged for parts was sold as scrap metal to support the war industry. Gas rationing kept cars either off the road or not driven great distances, and with rubber being a prized wartime commodity, Ruben applied common sense in a difficult situation and adjusted his product line to what was needed by his customers as affordable, and available. By the early years of the war, Ruben had become comfortable in wealth, proud that he'd created a business in which his son could flourish. He and Mamie became snowbirds, spending time in Florida from early October until late March. Dick was left in charge of the store, and upon each return, Ruben had to work doubly hard to restore his business to an even keel.\nRuben worked hard, and there still remains question in the family as to whether in the early years of the business his son did, or not. In any event, the matter became moot when, during the waning days of WWII, and after VE day in 1945, his son abandoned the family business to enlist in the Army. He was bright, able, and, as a ninety-day wonder OCS officer, was assigned as an occupation army quartermaster in Germany. [Dick returned to run the family auto parts business in 1948, joining his young family, his sister's husband, and his father in business. The Army had been good to him. He developed a sense of command responsibility, and returned mentally ready to be a shrewd businessman. By the time his father had retired and his sister's family returned to the Twin Cities, Dick was able to expanded the business in the 1950's and 60's to a small chain of stores in several midwest states. For years he piloted his own small plane hopping from store to store, and upon retiring, sold his business to employees of the company.]\nAs a major in the reserves, Dick was called back to serve during the early years of the Korean War, but came back almost as quickly once his sister, Bea, told him that her husband could not run the family business by himself and that she'd made arrangements to return the Meyer family to the Twin Cities. Just as with many of her earlier moves, Bea's decisions appeared impulsive and were rarely announced in advance. In her youth, she was able to take risks without consequences to others. This was not to be the case once she had a family in tow.\nBaxter and Broadcasting\nHer long career in broadcasting began at WOW-AM in Omaha at the age of 17, shortly after the station came on the air. She had \"gone east\" after finishing high school in Dell Rapids in three years, enrolling in a Connecticut state college to become a teacher. Her behavior must have been challenging -- she was young, bright, cuttingly verbal, and impatient with fools. It was a bad match. School administrators dismissed her because of her limited vision (lazy eye), a condition she disclosed in the application but not acted upon until she began to call attention to herself. Her conduct and attitude were out of sync from the pliant demeanor and passive attitude of her fellow students. She was kicked out of school and halfway across the continent from home in the midwest. Post war recession of the 1920's had hit the midwest hard, and her parents with their failing business in Dell Rapids couldn't send Bea train fare to return.\nWith what little money she could scrape up, she enrolled in a secretarial school and learned to type and take shorthand dictation. Her typing was amazing, later topping 140 words a minute. Her stenographic skills were probably acceptable, but armed with a quick wit and an answer for everything, she wended her way back to the midwest, but could not face her parents, disappointed at her brilliant start but dramatic failed showing as their first child to have struck out for an education beyond high school. She settled in Omaha, where, within weeks of arriving, she met her first husband Stanley Levin and landed her first job as the talent, producer, and advertising manager of her first radio show, \"In the Playhouse with Jane.\" This move made her one of the country's youngest female producers and broadcasters at the dawn of the age of AM commercial radio. Her marriage went bad quickly. Her career at WOW ended abruptly with the announcement of her divorce. Her former husband was the favored son of an influential Omaha Jewish family, and the \"scandal of divorce\" was too much for that small community. One of them had to leave, and as a person with no other roots in the community, Bea's departure became permanent.\nWhile her former husband remained in Omaha to lick his wounds, she \"had to go\" but a kind word on her behalf was put into the ear of Stanley Hubbard in Minneapolis by the WOW station manager. Hubbard had recently started KSTP in Minneapolis/St. Paul where Bea returned to briefly live under the roof of her parents, an awkward situation for an adult child who had tasted considerable and early freedom away from the family.\nAfter recovering from a first marriage stumble and a brief unhappy career in business, Bea's career prospects broadened by 1935. That year she joined the staff of KSTP at about the same time the principal broadcast studios of the station moved from the Radisson hotel in downtown Minneapolis to more suitable studio and production space in the St. Paul Hotel in St. Paul. By 1938 she met and married her second husband, Mel, who built their first family home on Bayard Avenue in St. Paul not far from the Mississippi river, just at the outskirts of a comfortable income growing neighborhood, Highland Park. Given the time and the economy, Mel had done well selling insurance. He could afford the extraordinary expense of building a new house during the height of the depression. The couple also distinguished itself from the average married couple of that time with each spouse having their own separate successful career and by waiting four years before having children while building both a nest and a nest egg.\nDuring the building of the national radio networks, broadcasts were sent out over telephone lines. Ever the innovator,the owner of KSTP, Stan Hubbard, switched his NBC affiliation from the Red to the Blue network in the mid 1930's. He established the first local station staffed radio news department. During that time, it was possible to mount substantial local talent in locally-produced live broadcasts and accept network feeds for features, soap operas, and the growing number of network family shows broadcast during the late hours and evenings.\nDuring the 30's through the late 1940's, KSTP-AM, 1500 Khz, produced enormous amounts of local programming, including remote broadcasts, ranging from news to special women's shows to the Sunset Valley Barn Dance (1940) produced by David Stone, a producer hired away from the Grand Old Opry. That show turned out to be a significant anchor production for the station, continuing its success into the mid 1950's.\nStanley Hubbard, was a commercial radio pioneer, making money from his station via a business model soon adopted by most successful broadcasters. In addition to his programming innovations, he also bought the first RCA television camera ever sold in the US in 1938. In 1939, he previewed television for a tiny audience in the Twin Cities, but TV had to wait until after WWII to become viable. He built what is still the headquarters for Hubbard Broadcasting right at the boundary between Minneapolis and St. Paul on University Avenue, and designed his new building to accommodate an age of local television production yet to appear anywhere in the US. During the 1930's, but not so much following the second world war, the station was home to a large staff of news announcers and special skill talent, and a sizeable studio orchestra led by its music director Leonard Leigh. In 1948, KSTP began the midwest's first television broadcasts. As with other stations at that time, its AM radio income began to soften and falter, and the expense of running a three medium station (television, AM and FM radio) exacted tolls at various times on KSTP's financial health from the mid-fifties onward.\nEven with the coming of her twins in 1942, Baxter was no house-mom. She was able to quickly return to the routine of daily producing and serving as primary talent on The Household Forum and, by 1944, The Saturday Smorgasbord. She and Mel hired a nanny to look after the babies and to have dinner ready when she and her husband came home after a long day of work. Even though her income was not high, having two incomes supporting a household meant that she and her husband could enjoy the relative luxury of live-in care for their children, something that was to continue through much of her children's childhood and adolescence. As a broadcaster and businesswoman, she was unusual among female broadcasters of the time in that she hustled her own advertisers and choreographed her shows, including writing the scripts. She was unlike many other women broadcasters of the time who served only as talent, leaving the \"business matters\" to men in that male-dominated industry. She was used to getting her way, and as long as she brought in advertisers and their money, usually got it.\nHer sudden move to Sioux Falls in the early spring of 1945 took everyone for a loop, but there you have it. She gave short notice, and declared that she was moving her family to South Dakota to prop up her father's auto parts business, which had lost half of its management team when her younger brother suddenly upped and joined the Army. She promised her husband to make things easier during the wrenching change of running a new business by staying home with the kids. This was not to be. Within moments of buying a house and pouring money she really didn't have into its renovation, she was down at a local radio station lobbying for her next radio job.\nSioux Falls and KSOO were kind to Baxter and her brood, but not to her husband Mel. Used to the world of blue serge suits and white shirts he wore while a successful insurance salesman in his own home town, St. Paul, Mel never was comfortable on the other side of a greasy steel counter in Sioux Falls selling auto parts and managing the business while Bea's parents, recently having become \"snow birds,\" spent their winters down in Florida, and while Bea's brother Dick was away in the Army. When Dick did return back to Sioux Falls after being in the US Army of Occupation in Germany, it was to a business faltering under Mel who had been far happier selling ideas and security (life and health insurance) than he was selling \"things.\" Shortly after his return, Dick was called back to active duty in the Korean conflict but quickly returned to the family business once his sister wrote him that her husband was \"losing it.\" Once back in the Twin Cities, Mel never was able to compete comfortably as a returning insurance salesman to a company he had left seven years before. Guardian Insurance welcomed him back, but things never were quite the same. To augment his sister's family finances, Dick spent a number of years following their's return to St. Paul quietly buying out Bea and Mel's interest in the Sioux Falls auto parts business.\nTV and 1952\nWhen Baxter returned to the Twin Cities in 1952 from her sojourn in South Dakota, her re-introduction to the community took the form of illustrated banner bus and streetcar advertisements with the phrase \"Bee is Back.\" As a condition for her hire by the son of her old boss at KSTP, she agreed to be the producer of her own TV show, a medium she had no experience in prior to the red light's first blink on for the opening shot camera in the summer of 1952.\nBaxter's ample dimensions always preceded her reputation, and the cartoon depictions of her on the busses and streetcars were anything but flattering. In a way that forbade mentioning the obvious, her old audience was disinterested in what she looked like because her broadcast presence did not depend upon being photogenic during her first 22 years as a broadcaster. She had her clothes custom-tailored to feature her good looking legs while accommodating her sparkplug height and considerable \"storage problems.\" Her first television show was to run three years before being displaced by national network afternoon game shows and TV soap operas.\nDespite her costly wardrobe fixes, camera angles always presented a problem as she introduced her guests. Betty Furness she was not. When her television career ended, she stayed on with the station during its AM format experiment times of the mid 1950's. She was a known factor, but even a well-known voice could not draw listeners from other forms of entertainment during the confusing days of passive audience attention-transfer from AM radio to television between 1949 and the late 1950's. Once her radio programs began to be pre-recorded for broadcast at a later time, even on the same day, the excitement of live broadcasting was gone.\nWherever she lived after leaving the Twin Cities in the mid 1960's, Baxter continued her involvement with community or educational television and small-time radio until her death in 1983. Not surprisingly, she did best when the programs she produced were live broadcasts.\nThe Broadcast Transcriptions from KSTP and KSOO\n& the Private Send Off from KSTP\nEach MP3 transcription is taken from a several generations old analogue dub. Original recordings were acetate 12\" discs prepared by engineers at KSTP AM (two periods: one late WWII time; the second from 1954 - 1956, Baxter's last year at KSTP in Minneapolis/St. Paul, by which time her air time had been reduced to a pre-recorded half hour radio show on KSPT AM broadcast -- in its last version -- for only fifteen minutes. Her original show may have been one half hour in length, but in keeping with KSTP's long-time tradition, this shortened time may have reflected the noon time farm and agricultural reporting, a staple item often found on Minnesota's largest stations, KSTP and WCCO. In the early fifties, local NBC,CBS and ABC affiliates plus independents continued their battle for market share and live versus syndicated audio programming long after the network TV wars took off in the late 40's.\nKSTP Radio - Baxter/Mary McLeod Bethune interview conducted in the fall of 1954, a year before Bethune's death. Introduction to music from Archy and Mehitabel (Don Marquis Broadway Musical Production) pre-recorded transcription was made about the same time and may have been combined or found on a B side of the 12\" acetate 33 RPM master from which the initial dub was made. As a talk show radio personality, it was a new thing for Baxter to be thrown into the role of a disk jockey, but this was part of the new picture for many AM broadcasters in the mid 1950's. She brought LP's from her family collection -- oft- played at home -- for announced or unannounced playing for some of her shows. This habit of hers led to substantially increased costs to produce her shows because ASCAP needle drop reimbursement conditions were different for multiple-cut LP's than they were for singles most commonly broadcast by radio disk jockeys of the time. Baxter was blithely unaware of the financial cost of some of her risk- taking, conduct that may have made it easier for business managers at KSTP to cut back on her show time and eventually limit her to conditions and hours that led her to leave the station.\nKSTP Radio - Baxter and her son Roger's music. Date by good guess: Easter vacation period, 1955, based on Bee's statement that Roger was 13 plus one week. Complete half hour broadcast.\n1945 Private Send Off production -- KSTP with Jimmy Valentine, Leonard Leigh, Cal Karnstedt and others in a specially written script written by those announcers. Sound quality excellent for the age and indicative of the high quality of production talent employed by the station until the late 1950's. This \"live but private production\" was never broadcast and makes its first public appearance here. Background that makes sense of some of the \"private jokes\" in this production. The script contains many insider references to Baxter's family and social history -- some true, and some fantasy. See her family history, above.\nBea regaled all who would listen with the adventures and misadventures of these immigrant parents and siblings, and much of the good natured joshing of the script writers for this KSTP send off were \"sending back her stories\". Mother's \"substantial size\" was the butt of commonplace joking at KSTP, but, as one might imagine, always painful.\nThroughout her life, Baxter struggled with weight, as she was only 5'-0\" but \"of ample proportions always\". She made up for her deficiencies in other ways, being a tireless producer, endless talker, and a fascinating social gathering hostess of the likes of Elsa Maxwell [See http://www.clanmaxwellusa.com/elsa.htm] but with far less interest in entertaining people than in challenging them, intellectually. Her guests, invited to lavishly home-cooked multi-course dinners of exotic foods were politicians, journalists, artists, authors, and very controversial other figures for their times and place.\nKSTP - March 12, 1942, birthday of the twins, recorded from actual studio KSTP broadcast at the beginning of The Household Forum.\nKSOO - transcription is dated 15 September 1948, by Murray Stewart, KSOO announcer, of Debbie's birth. The transcription stops as Stewart was about to take an advertising break and then do a studio interview with Sioux Falls School District Lymon Fort, a regular visitor to Baxter's show from the Meyer S. Phillips Avenue kitchen.\nRoger N. Meyer is one of the \"Baxter twins.\" He is the beneficiary of some terrific but conflicted parenting. After a 26-year career as a cabinetmaker (following a late start), he is a social services provider with practice specialty in social security representation, ADA disability representation in the private, agency, and government workplace, author of a first-in-field book on employment, and contributing author to several other books. Based in Gresham Oregon, Portland's largest suburb, he is active in neighborhood politics and is an avid amateur audio engineer specializing in on-location \"one-take\" recordings.",

The grievances mainly of the Tamils and also of the Sinhala and Muslim people in the northern and eastern parts of the country should be taken seriously. The Centre should be sensitive to the real grievances of those people rather than trying to define what their grievances are/should be. All the communities in the country should be given a constitutional guarantee that their rights will be protected. The people in the concerned area of the country should be given adequate opportunities to take part in the democratic process of the country.

        "raw_content": "Who is the SAS?\nThe Swiss Accreditation Service (SAS) is part of the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO). As a government institution the SAS is based on the Ordinance on the Swiss Accreditation System and the Notification which came into force in 1991 and was last revised in 2005. According to this ordinance (status April 4, 2006), accreditation is granted by the Head of SAS after a thorough examination by the SAS and judgment by the Federal Accreditation Commission (AKKO). This commission, constituted by the Federal Council, consists of representatives of the Swiss economy, the federal and cantonal authorities, the research and gauge as well as obviously the accreditated bodies (laboratories, inspection bodies and certification bodies).\nThe SAS and its environment\nThe sector committees are an important link between the SAS and the concerned circles. They consist of the experts of the branches as well as trade associations and develop together the technical criteria and requirements for accreditation.\nThe lead assessors of the SAS have an extensive technical background and many years of experience in industry. In addition, they are thoroughly trained in the field of Quality Management. This qualifies them for leading assessments in a competent manner.\nTechnical-scientific questions play an essential role in accreditation. Therefore, the SAS calls on external technical experts services, experts who have a thorough knowledge and great experience within the corresponding field. These experts get trained for their assessment task in regular basic courses and continuous education, organized by the SAS.\nThe Series EN 45000 Standards, which are identical with the ISO/IEC 17000 Standards as well as with the corresponding ISO Guides, serve as a basis for their work.\nThe SAS works according to the Standard ISO/IEC 17011. The implementation of this standard at SAS is regularly audited by the European co-operation for Accreditation (EA). As a result of these evaluations, the SAS was able to sign the multilateral agreements of EA, International Laboratory Accreditation Co-operation (ILAC) and International Accreditation Forum (IAF).\nThe Multilateral Agreements between the international organizations EA, IAF and ILAC for the mutual recognition of accreditation bodies, create the basis for the international recognition of assessment reports and conformity certificates.\nThe SAS represents actively the swiss interests within the EA, IAF and ILAC (see links on the right side).",

He pulled me to him and held me as close as he could. \u201cCome on, my car\u2019s right down here, remember? Let\u2019s go somewhere and talk.\u201d He started walking me toward his car, and I lost control.\n\u201cDon\u2019t touch me!\u201d I screamed. I pulled away from him, again disregarding the hurt and bewildered expression on his face.\nHe was on the verge of tears, overwhelmed by the feeling of helplessness. \u201cAbby, please.\u201d\nI should have told him I was sorry, that it had nothing to do with him, that I needed some time and then I would be all right. But right then I wasn\u2019t sorry, and I certainly didn\u2019t know if I would be all right.\nA taxi pulled over to the curb and I reached for the door handle, but John blocked me. By then, not only had the public at large gathered to witness the drama, the paparazzi had as well. I knew that wasn\u2019t good, even in my messed-up state.\n\u201cMove. Everyone\u2019s watching,\u201d I said to John, quietly.\n\u201cI don\u2019t care. I don\u2019t care! I am so tired of caring about who\u2019s watching or who thinks what. You are the only one I care about, and you are scaring the hell out of me.\u201d\nThen I pulled together every ounce of strength and fortitude I could muster to say to him, through clenched teeth in a tone which I knew he would take seriously, \u201cMove. Everyone is watching. Every second that you don\u2019t let me go, I get one second closer to ending up in the hospital again. Or worse.\u201d His face fell as he realized exactly what I meant. \u201cIf you love me even half as much as you say you do, move.\u201d\nOnce again, I wasn\u2019t playing fair. I was holding him responsible for too much, but he moved, and then he just stood there, speechless and torn apart, cameras flashing all around him, as I got into the taxi and made my escape.\nASIN: B00LSX6HD2\n\u201cTed Kennedy has done everything he could to ruin my life, and now he\u2019s killed my husband.\u201d\nYes, Abby Phelps is back to tell us more about her life, loves, and adventures. Is it her real life, her imagined life or a mix? Is she really a figure skater who won gold medals for three countries? Is she best friends with George Clooney? How about the hit TV show ER- did she really star as Carol Hathaway? Did she write and appear as the lead in blockbuster movies? In this second book in the series, there are so many questions and we still don\u2019t know the answers!\nI was a big fan of the first Abby Phelps book. I found it witty, creative, dazzling even. I suggest that you read the first book before curling up with the second installment. This second look at Abby is still a well-written and fast-paced read. Abby is an engaging and well-developed character and her romp through her life with all of its headline, super star moments is fun and appealing. But this book also seemed repetitious and over-wrought to me. And as I got deeper into the book, her life with its delusions or dreams unsettled me. This is the kind of book that you will either love, or shake your head at!\nHaving said all that, I am looking forward to reading the third book in the series. What finally happens to Abby? You won\u2019t find out in Book 2- it ends at a dramatic cliff-hanger. Go ahead and enjoy this unique read!\nI was so excited about diving back into the Chris and Abby story. It\u2019s been several months since I visited two of my favorite literary characters ever! Not only was I not disappointed, I was sucked in even further than I had been in the first book of this series. This story had me glued to the pages from chapter one. Abby\u2019s journey is one filled with laughter, tears, anxiety, and fear \u2026 and the best/worst part is \u2026 it can go from one extreme to another in just a few lines.\nEspecially after reading the epilogue for the last book in this series, I am ready to find out how this all ends. Or am I? I just don\u2019t know how I\u2019m going to react. It has taken me on such an emotional journey so far, I\u2019m almost of the same mindset of Abby, which is scary.\nIn one way, I want to know; but in another, if I do find out, it will mean the Chris and Abby story ends. That\u2019s just not something I\u2019m sure I\u2019m ready to accept.\nNeedless to say, I will probably need therapy after reading the final book in this series. Or perhaps, I need it right now for becoming so involved in a fictitious story. Either way \u2026 I\u2019ve Loved These Days.

        "title": "Condoms: Contraception versus Protection",
        "raw_content": "Condoms: Contraception versus Protection\nThe condom or sheath is not so much part of \"the history of contraception\" as part of the history of prophylaxis or the protection of sexual health. As F.M.L. Thompson points out in The Rise of Respectable Society: A Social History of Victorian Britain (1988), protection against sexually transmitted diseases was almost the sole reason for using condoms in Victorian Britain, and there is no evidence that the reduction of conception, in the working classes, was due to sheathing, and very little evidence that it was employed for that purpose in the upper classes. I think we can go so far as to say that sheathing was invented and used for the purposes of specifically protecting men from the pox: that it is a device for protecting male health rather than reducing female fertility. This general confusion between contraception and protection reminds me of 1950s sociology textbooks whose chapters on \"Sexuality\" turn out to be chapters on Procreation.\n(Incidentally, the etmologies offered for the word \"condom\" all seem to be fallacious. It appears in \"Panegyric upon the Cundum\", a work which was falsely dated 1667 but which was certainly published later than 1709.)\nI think it is pretty clear that the need for (male) sexual health preceded and determined the steady improvement of sheaths, that rubber technology in this instance did not precede the exploitation of a new-found use for it; and that, in either case, the issue of contraception was almost irrelevant. The \"history of contraception\" might indeed have been different if a \"morning after\" pill had been discovered earlier, but this would not have affected the development of the condom, which was designed to prevent disease rather than fertility. This continued to be true for much of the twentieth century. Condoms were widely distributed among the troops during the First World War specifically to prevent sexually transmitted diseases, and for most of their history they have been associated primarily with potentially dangerous sex outside of marriage. A woman who hands her lover a condom even today is regarded as a whore in most countries, and among the lower classes of European countries and the USA. I think there was probably a period of only two generations during the mid-twentieth century when condoms, euphemistically called \"contraceptives\", were actually used mainly as contraceptives, among the middle classes. Today of course they are again being widely distributed and promoted by governments specifically as protection against HIV, not as birth control devices.\nProtection is largely a medical issue, whereas restriction of family size (contraception) is largely an economic issue. Thompson shows how, as each occupational class begins to be affected by the industrial revolution, they begin to restrict family size for the sake of economic self-interest. Abortifacients were as widely available and commercialized as rubber condoms during the late nineteenth century, and had a greater effect on limiting family size in the textile towns of Britain in the 1870s than condoms.\nIt's fascinating to read Thompson's summary of the progression throughout the century when various groups begin to limit family size, leading to a decline in the birth rate: first the artistocrats in the 1830s (though they had smaller families from the sixteenth century onwards), then, a generation later, upper middle class professionals, then the urban middle classes (industrialists etc.) by the 1860s, then the lower middle classes (clerks etc.) in the 1870s/1880s, then the working classes by the end of the century. At the beginning of the century, 8 children born alive was the average (5 for aristocrats); by the end of the century, only heavy manual labourers had an average of more than 4 or 5 children. It's even possible to trace the pecking order of respectability among these groupings such as textile workers: e.g. 3.78 children for wool and worsted spinners and 4.80 for cotton spinners. Means other than \"contraception\" were of course used, such as delaying the age of marriage, and, interestingly, the steady rise in the number of men and women who did not get married, a demographic pattern that is often ignored in histories focusing narrowly on contraception.\nSimon Szreter's book Fertility, Class and Gender in Britain 1860\u00961940 offers a statistical study of census data which apparently proves that sexual abstinence really did occur during the mid-to-late Victorian period: family size declined simply because sexual intercourse was practised less frequently. We cannot altogether eliminate the possibility that condoms may have been used for contraceptive purposes, e.g. to avoid payments under the Bastardy Clauses of the New Poor Law. But there isn't enough evidence to suggest the likelihood of this being the case. Unfortunately we only have anecdotal evidence regarding the use of condoms outside of marriage, and can't assemble any statistics.\nCondoms actually promote sexual activity, albeit non-procreative sex. For example, John Grossett Muirhead of St George's, Hanover Square, in 1825 met an apprentice boy outside a print shop in Sackville Street, off Piccadilly, where he showed him some indecent prints and books, and two \"skins\" (i.e. condoms) which he bet the boy could not fit into \u0096 thereby encouraging him to get an erection. The following day Muirhead took this apprentice and two other lads to an oyster shop, where he showed them more pornography and fondled them and gave them a crown apiece. Two officers, previously alerted by the boys, burst in and arrested him. He was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. Three years and nine months later he was arrested in Dover for a similar offence, whereupon he fled to the Continent. My point for mentioning this case is that one of Muirhead's condoms was produced as evidence in court, and its use had to be explained to judge and jury. Unfortunately the court reporter does not define precisely what its \"use\" was considered to have been, whether contraceptive or protective, or if it was a purely mechanical description of how it was put on etc. This illustrates the difficulty of evaluating the evidence. Much of the anecdotal evidence I've come across suggests that condoms served the function of stimulating illicit sexual activity, as in the Muirhead case \u0096 where it was used simply as a suggestive object for homoerotic, hence non-contraceptive, purposes.\nCopyright \u00a9 1999, 2014 Rictor Norton.

        "title": "No Hedging on Hedge Funds - from Roeder Financial",
        "raw_content": "No Hedging on Hedge Funds\nRick Roeder March 24, 2009\nThe average person on Main Street is hearing that hedge funds are one of many culprits in America\u2019s current economic mess. Yet most folks would be at a total loss to define what a hedge fund is.\nEven for financial professionals, defining a hedge fund is no easy task. Like Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart once said about pornography, perhaps it is easiest to start with what a hedge fund is not \u2013 traditional, unleveraged investments in stocks and bonds. Hedge funds are restricted to only a limited number of high net worth individuals and institutional investors because hedge funds are exempt from general rules relating to leverage, use of derivative instruments (ie, futures contracts, options & puts), short selling, fund liquidity and fund management fees: Bigger reward/risk for deeper pockets. In other words, hedge funds would have fit perfectly in the Wild, Wild West.\nThe thrust of this Ramble is not targeted to the use by wealthy individuals of hedge funds but to the institutional users of hedge funds such as pension plans. I have attended pension conferences for 25+ years and noticed that there was much more interest in hedge funds immediately following the tech stock collapse in the first half of 2001. This, despite the fact, that most hedge funds had little in the way of a documented track record.\nMy sense is that the increased level of institutional interest came because plan sponsors and trustees were increasingly concerned about being able to meet their net investment return assumptions of 8% (or so) via traditional investments in light of 2001\u2019s significant market correction. Setting the investment return assumption has major short-term implications for plan sponsors. If the investment return assumption is lowered, there is a corresponding increase in needed contributions to meet long-term fund objectives. To make matters worse, many public plan sponsors had raised pensions to unprecedented levels as a result of the giddy market run up in the previous decade. Increased benefits increased contribution requirements. It would have been embarrassing and politically unacceptable to ask for a second contribution increase in a short period of time by reducing the assumed investment return on trust monies. Of course, there were a few politicians who said to heck with embarrassment, outrage or political consequences: In California, Gray Davis asked for contribution relief in 2002 -- a year after a massive pension increase for state employees was granted (See my April 1, 2002 Letter to the Editor in Pensions & Investments in this regard).\nSo, many plan sponsors stubbornly clung to their 8% return assumption. Hedge funds offered potential salvation because of touted potential double digit returns. This \u201clifejacket\u201d was offered just in time as the unprecedented 18-year bull market (1983-2000) came to a sudden halt. In some cases, the lifejacket turned out to be an anchor. In addition to the lack of a track record, there were other problems with hedge funds. Many large trust funds have a carefully calibrated investment allocation strategy to optimize meeting fund objectives. Hedge funds that are allowed to short sell and use leverage can unhinge asset allocation policy if they have meaningful holdings.\nThere was one further seduction made by hedge funds \u2013 how they charged clients. Some groused about the fee structure of mutual funds. The mutuals traditionally charge as a percent of assets held \u2013 irrespective of fund performance. Numerous hedge funds pitched their fee structure as follows: \u201cDon\u2019t pay us a penny unless we attain a specified level of return for you.\u201d Sounds great but there can be a problem. Suppose that the end of a measuring period is looming and it does not look like the hedge fund will make its bogey. This fee structure encourages lagging hedge funds to take even more risk in an effort to \u201ccatch up.\u201d This catch up issue was highlighted by the collapse of Amaranth Advisors in 2006. In one week, Amaranth lost almost two-thirds of its nine billion dollar portfolio in natural gas futures as it kept \u201cdoubling down\u201d on its highly leveraged position.\nThe last problem is not restricted to hedge funds but is sadly endemic to much recent American financial behavior: moral hazard. Last month, the FBI arrested the two principals of WG Trading Company for securities and wire fraud relating to its $554 million portfolio. Apparently, it is not just Bernie who made off with the money.\nJames Cramer, a hedge fund manager, had an interesting observation in New York Magazine, \u201cNo pension manager in his right mind should ever risk his capital in such an open-ended fashion (as Amaranth Advisors). I recall turning down a county\u2019s pension plan whose stewards had heard I was a good hedge fund manager with a great return. I told them giving me the money would be reckless, even though I barely used leverage. Pension managers simply do not have the sophistication and experience to properly assess and monitor hedge funds\u2019 performance.\u201d\nThere may be a place for small exposure for hedge funds in institutional funds with well defined missions and in a manner that does not conflict with a fund\u2019s overall investment strategy. It is best to remember that hedge funds are like power tools: They can be useful in the hands of the wise and savvy. For the unwary, beware! As for those chastened public funds who have reduced or are in the process of reducing their hedge fund exposure, they can really relate to Smokey Robinson\u2019s 1967 hit \u201cThe Love I Saw In You Was Just A Mirage.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Queen Wilhelmina's subjects have \"abandoned all hope\" that she will ever give birth to an heir, reports the Marquis de Fontenoy in her latest dispatch. The Dutch government plans to revise the constitution to \"permit a change in the laws of succession.\nAs the succession stands now, should the queen died without issue, the throne will go to her cousin, the reigning Grand Duke Wilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, grandson of Princess Sophia of the Nethelrands, sister of the late Willem III. The Dutch Consitution states that the Netherlands crown \"cannot be born in conjunction with that of any other country save that of Luxembourg.\" The Grand Duke would have to choose between Saxe-Weimar and the Netherlands. He has already intimated that he would choose Saxe-Weimar.\nThe Grand Duke's aunt, Princess Marie Alexandrine of Saxe-Weimar is second in line to the throne, and is the daughter of the late Princess Sophia of the Netherlands. She is married to Prince Heinrich VII Reuss.\nPrincess Marie is an elderly woman, and the Dutch are now proposing that her eldest son, Prince Heinrich XXXLL, currently serving in the Prussian army, should be named as the Prince of Orange, and move to the Netherlands and \"become identified with the Dutch people.\" The government has also proposed that the Constitution should be changed to allow the Dutch to elected \"whomever they liked as the future king.\"\nA majority of the Dutch are said to be in favor of the latter plan, but there are worries that Kaiser Wilhelm II may have something to say about it if the rights of Prince Heinrich are \"set aside\" by the Dutch people.\nQueen Wilhelmina is 24 years old. She has been married to Prince Hendrik (ne Prince Heinrich of Mecklenburg-Schwerin since February 1901. She has suffered at least one miscarriage, and on May 4, 1902, she gave birth to a stillborn son.\nMarlene, i have a question about succession. not in any particular country, just in general. in theory, what would be the course of action taken if a married but childless monarch were to die, and it was unknown whether or not the wife was pregnant? for example, if William had been king before Catherine had George, and he died, would Harry have been proclaimed immediately as king, or would they have waited until it was known for certain if Catherine was pregnant? these days they only would've had to wait a couple of weeks at the very most, but if i recall correctly, the proclamation of the next monarch is fairly immediate. (not the coronation, just when they're proclaimed officially.) back in the days when it would not be certain for months whether or not a woman was pregnant, did they ever wait, or did they just proclaim it immediately? do you know of any cases where a new monarch was proclaimed, only for the wife to become aware she was pregnant after the fact?\nit just makes me wonder what would happen if a wife was presumed not to be pregnant, only to find out later that she was. do we have any idea or precedent what the child's rights would be, if any?\nWhen King Alfonso XII died in 1885, he left a pregnant widow and 2 daughters, the eldest of whom was the Princess of Asturias as she was heiress presumptive. Merecedes could not be named as queen until her mother gave birth. If the third child was a girl, Mercedes would become queen of Spain, but if the third child was a boy, he would succeed posthumously. The third child was Alfonso XIII. I think it would depend on the age of Catherine if she would be asked if she were pregnant but if she were, the child in the womb would be born sovereign\nUm I think you need to check your work. The last part says May 4 1902. If Queen Wilhelmina is only 24, and you posted this on Friday November 20 2015, how does that work?! I think you meant 2002. If not, I am VERY confused. Thank you!\nM, you are very confused. Look at the date at the top of story. November 20, 1905. Most of royal musings are historical posts.\nOmer Haider said...\nI read in a biography of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother that in 1952 when George VI died even though she was 50 and had her last child 21 years before, she was formally asked if she was pregnant or not. Because if she was pregnant a boy would supercede his older sister in line of succession!!",

        "raw_content": "Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova on the Ukrainian authorities denying entry to journalists from Russia\nOn June 26, Ukrainian authorities denied entry into the country to journalists working for Russian media outlets Yevgeny Primakov (VGTRK) and Paula Slier (RT), who went to Kiev to take part in an OSCE conference. The absurdity of the situation stands in stark contrast to the theme of the conference, \u201cStrengthening media freedom and pluralism in Ukraine during times of conflict in and around the country.\u201d The Ukrainian border officials stopped Primakov and Slier at the airport for an interview and subsequently told them officially that they have been banned from entering Ukraine for five years.\nWe view these restrictive measures as fresh proof of Kiev\u2019s refusal to curtail its repressive policy towards the media, in particular, Russian media, which is aimed at suppressing the freedom of speech in Ukraine. This act of discrimination looks all the more offensive since the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, Harlem D\u00e9sir, previously confirmed the open nature of the planned event in a letter to Russian journalists and thanked them for their interest. We consider as unacceptable the OSCE\u2019s organisation of its events without ensuring that they can be attended by all those interested.\nIt is obvious that the Kiev authorities, who have systematically infringed on the rights of journalists in the absence of international censure, see that they can act with impunity. This policy will further aggravate the problem with the freedom of speech in Ukraine.\nWe hope that the participants of the aforementioned conference will censure this outrageous infringement on the rights and freedoms of journalists, as Mr Harlem D\u00e9sir has done. At the same time, we expect the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media and other international organisations concerned to adopt a harder line regarding the Kiev authorities\u2019 policy of curtailing the freedom of speech.",

Neame\t(444/36098)\nPublisher: London House & Maxwell\nSouth Africa\u2019s colour problem, the basic reason for the country\u2019s withdrawal from the British Commonwealth, is the subject of passionate argument throughout the world. Yet it is very little understood, even by the most eager partisans on one side or the other outside South Africa.\nThis book provides a brief, but complete history of the problem from the time of the Dutch settlement of the Cape in 1652 down to the present. The author explains why the policy of Apartheid is pursued in the face of adverse world opinion and why it is not likely to be changed. At the same time, points out the economic and geographical factors (not to speak of the human ones) that are bound to doom this policy to failure.\nMr Neame sets out clearly the arguments put forward by both sides, and explains the full nature of the dilemma in which South Africa finds herself. As such, this book makes a most valuable contribution to general understanding of the South African problem, and deserves to be read by everyone who wants to know both sides of the question.",

        "raw_content": "SANAA, Nov. 27 (Saba) -Taiz is an Arabic city situated in the country Yemen and is located near the port city of Mocha on the Red Sea, Taiz is the 3rd largest city in the country, king, Almaddhafar in 1288 declared it as their capital and thus it became the second capital of the Rasulid Dynasty after Zabid, then on 1332 Ibn Battutah arrived in the city and described it the largest and most beautiful cities of Yemen.\nThe city can be found in the Yemeni Highlands. It is not far from Red Sea\u2019s Mocha Port, it is an elevated spot 1,400 m above sea level, the Taiz International Airport serves it, besides a direct flight, you can get there from any of the major cities, this is possible because its roads are connected to them.\nThe city is famous for its many ancient quarters, it is also known for its white mosques. Among the most famous mosques in Taiz City in Yemen are Mudhaffar, Muctabiya and Ashrafiya.\nThe city is also known for the Governor\u2019s palace and the ancient citadel, you can see this on a mountain some 450 m high, there is also a Muslim madrass which is recognized as a university. During its early history, the city was fortified with defensive walls, it would remain that way until 1948, that year, Imam Ahmed declared it Yemen\u2019s second capital, this permitted the city\u2019s expansion beyond its walls.\nThe governorate has many other tourist attractions, some of the more popular recreation spots are Wadi Al-Barakany and Wadi Adh-Dhabab, the Al- Musaimear valley is also a well known tourist destination.\nFirst time visitors to Taiz City in Yemen should know that temperatures rarely go over 32 C. The amount of rainfall is 760 mm yearly.\nThe city also consists of some amazing attractions.\nAl-Quahira Castle: the beautiful attraction of the city is located on the northern slope of Mount Sabr.Abd Allah ibn Muhammad al-Sulayhi who was the sultan of the Sulayhids brought this castle into existence in the 12th century and is also considered as the nucleus of the city, it is also considered the most amazing attraction of the city which is visited by many tourist people well at the local people who hinself resides in the city.\nal-Qahirah Castle has a pervasive presence in modern Yemeni literature, especially in the novel The Hostage (published in 1984) by the novelist Zayd Mutee Dammaj (1943\u20132000). The novel documents the history of the Yemeni people\u2019s struggle against the imams who used the castle as a prison to hold hostages, today history repeats itself, as the castle witnesses the conflict between the people and the new imams.\nThe castle is also mentioned in Yemeni songs, by musicians such as Ayoub Tarish Abassi, who sings: \u201cOh Nour, Oh Musk, Oh Beautiful Ones, Oh Khawla... Put the roses and basil and light the candle... Embellish the crown of the castle with lights.\u201d Here, the castle is a social landmark that merges with the night-lights that signal the joy of the city and its inhabitants.\nShajarat Al Ghareeb: also called the mother of trees, is another major attraction of the city.This tree is almost 2000 years old and it is huge in size like an elephant body and branches are also coloured like an elephant, it is 50 km away from the main town of Taiz, and while going tourists find many beautiful landscapes of mountains and fertile villages.\nMudhaffar Mosque: it is located in the main centre of Taiz.This mosque came into existence in the 13th century and is one of the largest mosques which exists in the country.\nWritten by Mona Zaid",

Initial boundaries were based on the previous Abernethy Presbytery, which had been part of the Presbyterian Synod of Saskatchewan.\nIn 1953, the pastoral charges in Abernethy Presbytery were divided and moved to other presbyteries: Nokomis Pastoral Charge was added to Saskatoon Presbytery; other charges located west of Highway 35 were reassigned to Regina Presbytery; and the charges east of Highway 35 were moved to Yorkton Presbytery, which was re-named Abernethy-Yorkton Presbytery.\nAbernethy-Yorkton Presbytery was created in 1953, through the merging of Yorkton Presbytery and part of Abernethy Presbytery (east of Highway 35). In 1956, Abernethy-Yorkton amalgamated with Kamsack Presbytery and the resulting body returned to the earlier name, Yorkton Presbytery.\nContents include meeting minutes (1922-1953), correspondence and a history of the presbytery, as well as documents relating to the Abernethy West End Ministerial Association.\nOriginal order for many of these records is unclear.

Lanti was the co-founder and the most important leading figure in the World Anational Association, or to use its original Esperanto name, the \"Sennacieca Asocio Tutmonda\" (SAT), the Esperantist workers\u2019 association. He was also the theoretician of a new doctrine, anationalism, which aimed to eliminate the very concept of the nation as a guiding idea of social organisation.\nLanti\u2019s true name was Eug\u00e8ne Adam. He was born in a small village in Normandy in 1879. The son of poor peasants, he moved to Paris, where he earned his living as a manual labourer.\nIn his youth he was much influenced by anarchist ideas, and he was relatively active in the milieu that advocated them. He has contacts with such exponents of French anarchist and radical theory as Faure, Ner or Barbusse.\nDuring World War I he was mobilised and served as an ambulance driver, and that is where his revulsion in the face of war and nationalism became confirmed. These were the years in which he had his first contact with Esperanto and began to learn that language. At that time he also came into contact with communism, under the impression of the Russian Revolution, as was frequently the case in that period.\nWhen he returned to civilian life he got in touch with the Esperantist workers\u2019 movement, which had just gotten up and running in the years before the war, but was still disorganised. In 1919 he was chosen to be the editor of the bulletin of the French association, Le Travailleur Esperantiste, where he first demonstrated his literary talent and capabilities.",

Empathy has been discussed as the ability to see things from the other person's point of view, which will ensure a more effective communications, understandings and practices. Social contract is the individual's surrender of certain freedoms to the sovereignty, in exchange for the protection of natural rights that would improve the relationship.

        "raw_content": "NASA has unveiled the first-ever helicopter to fly above another planet\nNASA announced this afternoon that it plans to launch a tiny, four-pound, autonomous helicopter along with its 2020 rover mission. And if you think this sounds relatively cool, well: you\u2019re right.\nThe experimental, softball-sized drone would be the first airborne vehicle to fly around within Mars\u2019s atmosphere other than the landers that have delivered other, ground-based rovers. (At least the first vehicle that we know of.)\nIn order to design a flying vehicle that would actually work on another planet, NASA scientists faced a number of challenges.\nFor example: the Red Planet\u2019s particularly-weak atmosphere and the communication delay between ground control here on Earth and the rover.\nTraveling at the speed of light, it\u2019ll still take several minutes for any commands sent from Earth to reach the helicopter, so the flying rover will have to be at least partially autonomous as it provides scientists and other autonomous vehicles with the first long-term bird\u2019s-eye view of the planet.\nAlso, the Martian atmosphere is practically non-existent. The air pressure at the planet\u2019s surface is lower than it is at a helicopter\u2019s maximum altitude when flying above Earth.\nIn order to take off, the tiny flying robot needs to spin it\u2019s two blades ten times faster \u2013 3,000 times per minute \u2013 than it would on Earth while carrying batteries and other hardware crafted to be as light as possible.\nWhen the rover arrives at Mars in February 2021, it\u2019ll perform scouting missions to look for ideal landing zones on the surface, as well as scan the planet for signs of life, hazards that might matter to the future astronauts who finally venture to Mars.\nIt\u2019ll also assist with the ongoing geology research currently underway by ground-based rovers (i.e. Curiosity and Opportunity).\nNASA\u2019s taking a big gamble on this helicopter running smoothly. Once it\u2019s out there, it\u2019s gonna attempt a couple test flights, the first of which will last just thirty seconds, before ramping up the scale of its missions.\nBut if this endeavor truly takes off (sorry) it could add a valuable and revealing new dimension to space exploration missions down the road.",

        "raw_content": "If you are a business owner in Overland Missouri, there will come a day when you look at \u201chow to sell my business\u201d as the main question you ask yourself and perhaps the first thing to type in the search box in Google or your favorite search engine. When you type in \u201chow to sell my business in Overland \u201d I am sure you will find all kinds of information on just that. I have compiled 7 of the things most business owners don\u2019t know about or don\u2019t think about before that day (or the day of) that would certainly make the day you do sell your business a more profitable one. Most companies who visit with us are looking to find out what their business is worth first. Most business owners have no idea what their company is worth. Wouldn\u2019t you like to know about what it is worth before you hire a Overland business broker (we\u2019re not brokers, by the way)?Before I go into all that let\u2019s look at the 7 biggest mistake business owners make when they get to the point of asking \u201chow to sell my business\u201d1. They assume they \u201cknow\u201d what their company is worth and make up a price \u2013 Look the first problem with this approach is that your business is usually \u201cyour baby\u201d. If you have owned your business for a long time you know that you have spent more time with it than perhaps even your family, spouse and kids! It\u2019s always there, even in the back of your mind\u2026\u2026\u2026and sometimes it is hard to understand why someone can\u2019t see your business worth the way you see it. That\u2019s okay, but it is better to have a certified 3rd party give a certified opinion or appraisal of your business.Look at it this way, if you and I were going to go downtown and buy the Hilton Hotel, we would find a qualified appraiser to give us his professional opinion, wouldn\u2019t we? We certainly wouldn\u2019t take the owner\u2019s word for it or even their accountant\u2019s word for it. We would want an independent opinion and official analysis.But you say, hey my business isn\u2019t worth that much to justify the cost. What? Even if your business is only worth $25,000, at least you would have an official 3rd party appraisal and a \u201cfloor\u201d price you could start at. And with the discounts available when you go through someone like valuationbroker.com, you could literally add thousands if not tens of thousands to your sales price, and only pay a small percentage to have it done.I would not even consider selling any business without this step, no way, ever.You see, most business buyers are smart, like you, they have done a lot of right things to get where they are and unless they have recently inherited the money, they are sophisticated to a degree and will do their homework when looking for a company to purchase. The real advantage to having your company appraised first (by an independent 3rd party certified appraiser) is that you are the one driving the appraisal, not the buyer.2. They ask their accountant what their company is worth and use that number \u2013 You accountant is probably a very smart individual, however when coming to valuing a business or having one in on the sales process, I have one rule. I make sure they have been in on at least 10 business sales in the past 12 months, no exceptions. I have seen more deals killed by well meaning accountants. Don\u2019t make this mistake.I don\u2019t care what your accountant thinks your business is worth. I don\u2019t care what MY accountant thinks your business is worth. I want to know what the market tells me.\nSo that\u2019s why I want an independent look from a qualified third party to tell me the current \u201cmarket value\u201d. I have seen hundreds of business owners make this mistake and it can (and has) literally meant the difference of getting only half of what they could have! Half!What\u2019s also most interesting about accountants is that they tend to favor using the book value of your business as a starting point and not the market value. Big big mistake. You\u2019ll leave a ton on the table this way. Don\u2019t do it!3. They take the number off their balance sheet and say that\u2019s what their company is worth \u2013 You balance sheet tells you the hard value of the assets you have, that\u2019s it! It doesn\u2019t take into consideration what the value of your assets are that have already been depreciated or your blue sky value, or good name, or customer base\u2026\u2026\u2026.all things that can add tremendously to the bottom line value of your business!4. They read a few articles in INC magazine and guess a number (even saying something like \u201ccompanies in my industry are selling for 3 Times earnings\u201d) They may even refer to their latest tax return for a number \u2013 Don\u2019t be fooled by this! There are so many variables even with similar businesses in the same industry. The true value of your Missouri business is NOT the same as the guy down the street, even if you do the same thing! The true value of your Overland business is NOT like real estate, where you can compare with the property down the street.That is like saying the space shuttle is like a bicycle. True they are both forms of transportation, but one is a bit more complicated than the other. Again, have it appraised by a \u201cmarket appraiser\u201d. Best money you will EVER spend. Ask ANYONE who has EVER sold a business! 5. They trust a FREE tool on the internet to give them the value of their business \u2013 While these free tools are valuable to help obtain a \u201crange of value\u201d (we have one too), they are not the complete answer and you can\u2019t use them to justify your asking price. If you have a properly done market appraisal, it will include a \u201cjustification of purchase price\u201d section that says, \u201cthis is what your business is worth in this market, and here is why it is worth that\u201dThat is such an important step. Buyers are smart and want to know how you came to the price you did. Now you know what to do so you can stand behind your price.\nThe Best Overland Missouri Business Brokers\nAuthor ACGPosted on April 4, 2017 April 4, 2017 Tags Broker to sell my business in Overland, brokers to sell my business in Overland, Business Broker of st. louis in Overland, Business brokers of st. louis in Overland, Buy a business in Overland, Buying a business in Overland, sell business in Overland, Sell my business in Overland, Sell your business in Overland, Sell Your company in Overland, Selling a business in Overland, Succesion Planing in Overland, Succession plan in Overland",

        "raw_content": "Danny Boyle and Cast Discuss Reuniting for T2 Trainspotting\nIt's been 20 years since the original Trainspotting hit theaters, and fans are finally getting the sequel they've been waiting. T2 Trainspotting reunites director Danny Boyle along with actors Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, and Robert Carlyle. We were able to speak with Boyle and the boys (minus Robert Carlyle) to talk about how much has changed for them and their characters since we last saw them and reuniting once again after all these years.\nShakefire (SF): What prompted you to want to revisit Trainspotting after 20 years?\nDanny Boyle (DB): We tried ten years ago when there was an obvious prompt because Irvine Welsh published a book, Porno, which was a ten years later sequel to his original novel, and so we had a go at it, and it was not very good. I\u2019m sure it was fine because it was John Hodge, the same screenwriter and me and we were working on it, but when you read it you thought, I didn\u2019t even bother sending it to the actors because it didn\u2019t feel there was a real reason to do it. Because obviously there\u2019s an onus on you when you return to something with the impact that the first film had, if you\u2019re going to update it you\u2019ve got to have a reason. And it didn\u2019t feel like there was a reason. It was just a caper again. And also the actors didn\u2019t really feel any different, they didn\u2019t look any different. I\u2019m sure they would have felt different, but they didn\u2019t look any different ten years ago, not really. They\u2019re all smirking at me now. But actually we did used to joke at the time that they looked after themselves so well that basically they still looked in their early 20s.\nAnyway, so we met in Edinburgh two years ago, again, John Hodge, the screenwriter, Irvine Welsh the writer, the two producers and me, and we sat down. And I think when we sat down we thought this won\u2019t work, we\u2019ll have to do due diligence because there is a big anniversary coming up, there will be a lot of interest in whether it will happen or not. And what emerged was much more personal and gave us a reason to make the film really, I think, is that it becomes not just a sequel, it is obviously a sequel, you can\u2019t deny that, but it has its own right to exist really, raison d\u2019\u00eatre really, the reason to be, which is obviously the passage of time, and especially masculine behavior over time. The other film is obviously a great celebration of a certain period of your life through the most extreme prism you can imagine, these junkies in Edinburgh, and then obviously the update is when they\u2019re 46 and they\u2019re fucked, as Renton says.\nSF: Obviously this is a film that both embraces and takes the piss out of nostalgia. As performers, can you talk about the surrealism of revisiting a character all these years later, and if you can talk about just how it felt on set to make sure that you weren\u2019t just making a sequel you were also making a reflection upon sequels in general, about how you can\u2019t go back to the past again but sometimes the past is the best time of your life.\nEwen Bremner (EB): Age is cruel, and you don\u2019t realize that until you get to this point in your life. In the first film we were full of exuberance and potency, and we thought we were invincible. And it took us 20 years to realize that we\u2019re just running on the spot and time is flying by. So, when Danny asked us to come back together and find out who these guys were after 20 years, we had an opportunity that is unparalleled, that never comes along for actors, to think of a character 20 years later and to run with it, because Danny lets you really run with every idea and he feeds you full of fantastic ideas to play with. So, we just had a bagful of opportunities and the prospect of jumping on this film again.\nSF: What was it like coming together as people after all of these years, you\u2019ve all gone on very different journeys in film and theatre and your personal lives, how did that affect your group dynamic this time around?\nEwan McGregor (EW): I hadn\u2019t seen Jonny for maybe 15 years. And I hadn\u2019t seen Bobby, I can\u2019t believe that\u2019s true...it\u2019s amazing, isn\u2019t it, 15 years, I hadn\u2019t seen Bobby since the premiere of Trainspotting in Scotland. Ewen and I, this was our fifth movie together, so we\u2019ve worked with each other over the years. So, we\u2019re getting back together again and our relationships were founded working on Trainspotting, and I think this idea that we were all fucked up all the time and it was a party all the time, but it wasn\u2019t. We had a short space of time to make that movie, I think we shot it in seven weeks, six weeks, and we worked really hard on it, and we were also all aware that we were doing something really special and important, and so we were giving it our all. And so to come back together and find each other again under the same conditions, if you like, and with the same responsibility for this film was just fantastic, and it just felt like coming home. And it wasn\u2019t until the very end, and quite late on in the shooting, where the four of us were actually on set at the same time, and that was extra special really.\nSF: Thinking about how the first film ends and the second one begins, the words \u201cfriendship\u201d and \u201cbetrayal\u201d came to mind. How does that play out over the course of the film?\nDB: Well, friendship\u2019s a very powerful thing that none of us are really in control of, it takes over your life in a way that you can\u2019t anticipate. And Irvine Welsh said something very interesting about this dynamic and about the first film in relation to the second film, and he said that the first film was a film about the power of friendship and how it\u2019s intoxicating and overwhelming and is a real hit in the vein. But ultimately to be part of this friendship group it crushes your individuality, and so the individual, which is Renton in the first story, he has to break free of the crushing conformity of the group. But the second film has the individual coming back into the fold because to survive out in the wilderness is just as crushing as it is to survive in the group, so the individual comes back into the fold to try to find succor in this difficult part of his life.\nSF: The music in the original Trainspotting was seminal and very evocative, very representative of that era and that culture. Danny, if you could talk a little bit about the score of the movie and the concept behind it now two decades later.\nDB: One of the key questions everybody asks of course at the beginning when you start this, they just assume the soundtrack will be really good, yes, no problem there, so there\u2019s a lot of expectations. But we were very lucky on the first film because obviously there was a huge variety of choices and it was a great time and all that kind of stuff, but we found what we call the heartbeat of the film was this Underworld album, \u201cDubnobasswithmyheadman.\u201d And I remember I said to John and Andrew, the screenwriter and the producer, that this would be the heartbeat of the film. And I remember them being a bit alarmed about that because they thought it was going to be just plastered with Underworld music, which was very heavy. And I said, no, but it is the rhythm that will make the film tone.\nAnd you\u2019re always looking for that on a film if you can, you don\u2019t always find it, but you find some way in the musical choice that represents the film, and of course we found \u201cBorn Slippy,\u201d which wasn\u2019t on that album and it ended the film. Coming to do the new one you want to try and find that equivalent heartbeat, and we found this band, Young Fathers, who come from the same estates around Edinburgh that Irvine Welsh came from and where his stories are based from 25 years ago when these guys, Young Fathers, weren\u2019t even born, and yet their stuff just fits in the film, so we used three or four of their tracks on the film.\nAnd there\u2019s a variety of other options, there\u2019s some reflections on the first film, remixed and re-imagined, like the Prodigy remix of \u201cLust for Life\u201d and Underworld re-imagining \u201cBorn Slippy.\u201d But it\u2019s the heartbeat of the new film that sustains you most, and that was this relationship with Young Fathers, yes, and their songs are peppered through the film and includes the final song, which is a wonderful song called \u201cOnly God Knows,\u201d and a brand new song from them.\nSF: Could you talk about some of the lessons in both the new movie and the old movie that are about that period of your life and realizing that some of the things that come with being a functioning adult in the real world are superficial and these fake joys?\nJonny Lee Miller (JLM): I think the monologue there in the first movie, and as Danny has been saying today and I think it\u2019s really true, that the movie\u2019s really a lot about masculinity. And there\u2019s that confidence and that fearlessness which permeates the first movie and it\u2019s really summed up in the voiceover, especially in the end speech there, this is what I\u2019m going to do, this is who I am, this is who I\u2019m going to be, and it\u2019s directed at the audience, it\u2019s an assault on the audience, you know, a confident boast. That falls away later in life, and what are you left with, you reflect more on it.\nSo, I think the second film really reflects that very well about your attitude, your confidence maybe disappears a little bit. It\u2019s not your confidence, it\u2019s your brash attitude to life, you don\u2019t feel invincible anymore, your mortality is more evident to you perhaps, either subconsciously or consciously, you\u2019re either aware of that or you\u2019re not. You feel more anxiety perhaps.\nSF: When you guys were creating the movie what were you hoping audiences will take away after they see this film?\nDB: You hope people recognize it as honest really. Whatever the circumstances that you\u2019re portraying, however extreme the story, is that one of your current touchstones, you certainly find this working with good actors, they won\u2019t let you do anything that feels dishonest. It\u2019s a weird filter they have. You think, oh, I\u2019ll hire that actor to do this and stuff like that, you have to pass through that actor\u2019s filter. An actor\u2019s filter is their safeguard of the quality of their work and it has to be honest, and especially doing a film like this, which comes after a first film which was such a hit and such a celebration of such extremes, it won\u2019t let you just repeat that because they\u2019re now in their mid-40s, these guys, and it\u2019s a different landscape for them, they don\u2019t have all the answers.\nJonny was just saying about you\u2019ve got all the answers when you\u2019re in your early 20s, and you mock and sneer about the whole thing really. And that\u2019s expected and welcomed actually as you step out of childhood, you\u2019re allowed that really; you\u2019re not when you get in your mid-40s. So, I hope people take away that it\u2019s an honest picture really, however extreme the elements you see of them all. I hope anyway.\nT2 Trainspotting is out in theaters in Atlanta, GA on March 24, 2017.\nT2 Trainspotting (Trailer #1)",

After last night\u2019s peformances in part one of The X Factor season 3 finale, we believe if they don\u2019t win, it would be a total shock. However, while we think they should be the ones who will win The X Factor 2013 tonight, fans of Jeff Gutt and Carlito Olivero aren\u2019t giving up quite yet.\nThe X Factor season 3 top 3 \u2013 Source: FOX\nThe only The X Factor spoilers we have to go from on who wins season 3 are the results of fan polls and iTunes rankings. According to those, it appears that Alex & Sierra will be the winners by a significant margin. Most of the bloggers out there are also giving it to Alex & Sierra, with the general consensus being that they dominated last night\u2019s performances.\nHowever, Jeff Gutt fans were out in force last night campaigning for their guy, and The X Factor judge Kelly Rowland has pushed him hard to viewers. How can you not want all the best for the guy just so he can give his adorable son everything he could wish for in life? Plus, let\u2019s be frank, he was definitely on last night, especially with this performance:\nPoor Carlito Olivero is trailing so far down in the polls that he doesn\u2019t look like he has the slightest chance of being The X Factor 2013 winner. If something happened and he actually won, we think even The X Factor judge Paulina Rubio would burst into flame out of spontaneous surprise. He\u2019s a likeable enough guy and fun to watch, but he just hasn\u2019t managed to stick with the viewers in the same way as Alex & Sierra and Jeff Gutt.\nTonight\u2019s The X Factor season 5 finale will be a grand explosion of guest performances and stalling tactics to stretch the show out for two full hours before we find out who wins. We\u2019ll have to wade through pop-ins from Glee\u2019s Lea Michele, Mary J. Blige, Leona Lewis, One Direction, Pitbull and Ke$ha. There will also be tons of group numbers featuring previously eliminated contestants as well, we\u2019re sure. All very entertaining, but we would just rather they skip it all and tell us who won The X Factor USA season 5 and be done!\n4 Responses to \u201cThe X Factor 2013 Spoilers: Who Wins The X Factor Season 3?\u201d\nAlex and Sierra are lame and won\u2019t last. They\u2019re more like a lounge act than artists with any chance at any amount top 40 radio airplay. With that said, Jeff Gutt has the potential to be the next Chris Daughtry and record companies should salivating at the thought of signing him to a record deal.\nCheryl Wyatt Holland\nI haven\u2019t gotten the whole Alex and Sierra mania, I thought they should have been gone weeks ago. Having said that, I must admit they have done major improvement, but I thought their performances last night were 3rd place performances. I say Jeff Gutt all the way!!!\nWe could certainly see Jeff going the Daughtry route, totally.\nJeff will have a career ahead of him no matter what, we\u2019re sure.",

        "raw_content": "Evolution of deformation styles at a major restraining bend, constraints from cooling histories, Mae Ping fault zone, western Thailand\nC. K. Morley, M. Smith, A. Carter, P. Charusiri and S. Chantraprasert\nGeological Society, London, Special Publications, 290, 325-349, 1 January 2007, https://doi.org/10.1144/SP290.12\nP. Charusiri\nS. Chantraprasert\nThe c. 500-km-long Mae Ping fault zone trends NW\u2013SE across Thailand into eastern Myanmar and has probably undergone in excess of 150 km sinistral motion during the Cenozoic. A large, c. 150-km-long, restraining bend in this fault zone lies on the western margin of the Chainat duplex. The duplex is a low-lying region dominated by north\u2013south-trending ridges of Mesozoic and Palaeozoic sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks, flanked by flat, post-rift basins of Pliocene\u2013Recent age to the north and south. A review of published cooling-age data, plus new apatite and zircon fission-track results indicates that significant changes in patterns of exhumation occurred along the fault zone with time. Oldest uplift and erosion (Eocene) occurred in the Umphang Gneiss region, west of an inferred thrust-dominated restraining-bend setting. From 36 Ma to 30 Ma, exhumation was strongest north of the duplex, along the NW\u2013SE-trending segment of the fault zone at the (northern) exiting bend of the Chainat duplex. This region of the fault zone is characterized by a mid-crustal level shear zone 5\u20136 km wide (Lan Sang Gneisses), that passes to the NW into an apparent strike-slip duplex geometry. The deformation is interpreted to have occurred during passage around the northern restraining bend, which resulted in vertical thickening, uplift, erosion and extensional collapse of the northern side of the shear zone. This concentration of deformation at the bends at the ends of the restraining bend is thought to be a characteristic of strike-slip-dominated restraining bends. Following Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene extension, there is apatite fission-track evidence for 22\u201318 Ma exhumation in the Chainat duplex, that coincides with a phase of inversion in the Phitsanulok Basin to the north. The Miocene\u2013Recent history of the Chainat duplex is one of minor sinistral and dextral displacements, related to a rapidly evolving stress field, influenced by the numerous tectonic reorganizations that affected SE Asia during that time.\nRestraining bends (cf. Crowell 1974) in strike-slip zones have been identified in many parts of the world (e.g. Anderson 1990; Corsini et al. 1996; Laney & Gates 1996; Curtis 1998), but in particular those in California, China and Mongolia have been the subject of numerous and diverse investigations (e.g. reviews in Cunningham et al. 1996, 2003; Cowgill et al. 2004; Wakabayashi et al. 2004). Typically, in these areas, major restraining bends form regions tens of kilometres up to several 100 km long. Models for restraining-bend behaviour have highlighted two end members: thrust dominated, and strike-slip dominated (e.g. Hauksson & Jones 1988; Cowgill et al. 2004). Restraining-bend structural evolution displays a range of trends, including synchronous movement on faults within a strike-slip duplex (McClay & Bonora 2001); progressive outward propagation of the active fault system within a duplex away from the original restraining bend (Wakabayashi et al. 2004), and complex rotations of faults during simple shear which causes changes in their sense of motion, and degree of activation (Cunningham et al. 2003). However, the number of well-documented examples of major restraining bends for developing and testing such models remains low.\nEastern Myanmar and western Thailand display an extensive network of Cenozoic strike-slip faults (e.g. Le Dain et al. 1984; Lacassin et al. 1997; Morley 2004; Fig. 1). One of the major faults within this system is the Mae Ping fault zone (also known as the Wang Chao fault zone). The Mae Ping fault zone trends predominantly NW\u2013SE, but displays important north\u2013south-trending segments (Morley 2004; Figs 1, 2 & 3). From Myanmar to central Thailand, the Mae Ping fault zone is 500 km long; its continuation to the SE is uncertain. Some interpretations extend the Mae Ping fault zone over 1000 km further to the SE, to reach the Mekong Delta of southern Vietnam (Lacassin et al. 1997; Leloup et al. 2001). In regional restorations of SE Asian rigid-block motions during the Cenozoic, Replumaz & Tapponier (2003), building of a model published in Leloup et al. (2001) required the Mae Ping fault zone to extend to the NW Borneo margin. However, Morley (2002) viewed such an extensive Mae Ping fault zone as unsupported by available data, and contradictory to the known geological history of NW Borneo. There is actually no hard evidence for even extending the Mae Ping fault zone through Cambodia and Vietnam to the Mekong Delta, except for the presence of convenient NW\u2013SE-oriented linear features such as the lake, Ton Le Sap. It is even possible that the fault zone splays and ends in eastern Thailand/western Cambodia (Fig. 1).\nRegional location map, modified from Morley (2004). Terrane boundaries are from Barr & Macdonald (1991).\nThe Mae Ping fault zone has undergone predominantly sinistral strike-slip motion (Lacassin et al. 1993, 1997) where the north\u2013south segments would have acted as restraining bends within the overall NW\u2013SE trend. Horizontal sinistral displacement is estimated at about 150 km (Lacassin et al. 1997). Hence, the restraining bends should have experienced considerable strain, uplift and erosion. Strongly entrenched in the literature is the idea of a later, simple reversal to dextral strike-slip motion along the major NW\u2013SE-trending strike-slip faults of SE Asia during the Miocene or Pliocene (e.g. Huchon 1994; Leloup et al. 1995; Lacassin et al. 1997, 1998). Specifically for the Mae Ping fault zone, Lacassin et al. (1997) suggested that the switch occurred post-23 Ma. Smith et al. (2007) discuss the evidence for this dextral motion within the Chainat duplex area of the Mae Ping fault zone, and so the subject is not addressed in detail in this volume. However, the conclusions are that evidence for dextral motion can be found, but displacement is minor (a few kilometres of displacement). Dextral displacement increases in magnitude and importance, passing westward into Myanmar. In the Chainat duplex area, dextral motion has alternated with long periods of quiescence, and occasional left-lateral motion during the Miocene, and does not have the history of timing, displacement magnitude or correct detailed structural geometries to be the cause of rift basin development as pull-apart basins (Morley 2002; Smith et al. 2007, paper 11, this volume). The absence of large basins within the Chainat duplex area indicates that dextral motion reactivation of the area as a releasing bend must have been minor, and deep basins adjacent to the duplex were formed by extension, not by strike-slip (Morley 2002).\nIn this paper we show that the 33\u201330 Ma exhumation documented by Lacassin et al. (1997) is only seen locally in the Lan Sang area, and probably represents the results of transpression at the exiting bend of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend, with evolution from a thrust-dominated to strike-slip dominated type restraining bend. The structural evolution of the fault zone during the Cenozoic is defined by summarizing the existing thermo-chronology data from the region around the Mae Ping fault zone in western and central Thailand, and from new apatite (AFT) and zircon (ZFT) fisson-track ages. This model is compared with existing models for restraining bend evolution.\nRegional geological setting\nThe Mae Ping fault zone in western Thailand is clearly seen on satellite images to form a pronounced NW\u2013SE-trending feature (Figs 1 & 2), with north\u2013south-trending splays branching from it. The NW\u2013SE trend of the fault zone slices through older Palaeozoic\u2013Early Mesozoic terrane boundaries (as defined by Barr & Macdonald 1991), that trend predominantly north\u2013south (Fig. 1). However, several of the splays appear to coincide with the terrane boundaries, hence the Mae Sariang splay (Fig. 1) coincides with the boundary between the Western Zone and the Inthanon Zone, whilst the major bend in the fault zone that is the focus of this study (here termed the Khlong Lhan bend, Fig. 1), lies between the Sukhothai Zone and the Inthanon Zone. Hence, the influence of major crustal pre-existing fabrics described for examples of large releasing or restraining bends elsewhere in the world (e.g. Corsini et al. 1996; Tommasi & Vauchez 1997; Curtis 1998), also appears to have influenced their location along the Mae Ping fault zone.\nRecently, Morley (2004) has suggested that the Mae Ping fault zone first developed during a Late Cretaceous\u2013Early Cenozoic transpressional event related to collision of the Burma Block with the western margin of Sundaland. This early transpression was a precursor to the main Indian\u2013Eurasian collision when the fault zone underwent further (probably the greatest) sinistral motion during the Oligocene (Lacassin et al. 1997). The best exposure of the mid-crustal levels of deformation associated with the Mae Ping fault zone is the 5\u20136-km-wide mylonitic to ultramylonitic shear zone in the Lan Sang national park (Lacassin et al. 1993, 1997; Fig. 2). North of this area is a north\u2013south-trending region of gneisses and granites which form the highest ranges of hills in Thailand (Fig. 2). These ranges include the hills called Doi Inthanon and Doi Suthep, which have been interpreted as metamorphic core complexes exposed by top-to-the-east shear on low-angle east-dipping detachments (e.g. MacDonald et al. 1993; Rhodes et al. 1997). However, differences in ages between the dating of the detachment (Eocene) and the timing of exhumation (Early\u2013Middle Miocene) mean that the history of metamorphic core complex is in doubt (e.g. Rhodes 2002).\nRegional map of the Mae Ping fault zone (modified from Smith et al. 2007, this volume).\nThe Lan Sang Gneisses within the Mae Ping fault zone NW of Lan Sang national park have a distinctive pattern to the trend of their foliation (Fig. 3). Although the main shear zone trends NW\u2013SE, the foliations are curved and lie within a convex stretch of the NE northern boundary (Lacassin et al. 1997; Fig. 3). The pattern of foliations and shear zones suggests the strike-slip equivalent of an antiformal duplex geometry (e.g. Woodcock & Fischer 1986). The small Cenozoic sedimentary basin that opened up on the northernmost segment of the duplex suggests that one horse block moved independently from those to the south (Fig. 3). The minor road from Mae Ramat to Banli, which cuts the northern part of the duplex, reveals small outcrops of gneiss and augen gneiss that do not have an imposed sinistral mylonitic fabric, and a few strongly weathered outcrops with a subvertical foliation \u2013 a pattern consistent with horses within a duplex. However, the duplex (and the road) lies in remote, jungle-covered, hilly country, and detailed resolution of the structural geometry from outcrops is unlikely to be possible. If the foliation pattern on satellite images does represent an antiformal duplex, then the area would have evolved in a way similar to that illustrated in stages 1\u20134 of Figure 3. The first horse to move block (1) then ceased motion and became overridden by successive horses that each were transported further to the NW than previous ones. What was possibly the final motion on horse 4 set up a small releasing-bend geometry, resulting in the creation of a minor Cenozoic basin.\nMap of the Lan Sang to Mae Sot area, showing the antiformal geometry of the Lan Sang Gneisses, based on satellite image interpretation and maps in Lacassin et al. (1997).\nSoutheast of Lan Sang national park and the western highlands are the broad Central Plains (Fig. 1). This region is a flat-lying area which represents a post-rift basin overlying several Late Oligocene\u2013Miocene rift basins (e.g. Morley et al. 2001). The Mae Ping fault zone east of Lan Sang national park broadens and splays into the Central Plains area. In one large region of the Central Plains, some 200 km north\u2013south and 100 km wide, Palaeozoic and Mesozoic sedimentary, metasedimentary and igneous rocks are exposed as isolated hills. These hills tend to trend either north\u2013south or NW\u2013SE. This area between the Cenozoic rift basins was called the Chainat Ridge in O'Leary & Hill (1989). Morley (2002, 2004) interpreted the region as a strike-slip duplex and renamed it the Chainat duplex. A detailed discussion of the evidence for strike-slip deformation in the Chainat Ridge area is provided in a companion paper to this one (Smith et al. 2007). Adjacent to the Chainat duplex are the Phitsanulok, Ayutthaya and Suphan Buri rift basins of Late Oligocene\u2013Miocene age (O'Leary & Hill 1989). The timing and structural history of the basins are constrained by well and seismic reflection data gathered for hydrocarbon exploration (e.g. Flint et al. 1988; O'Leary & Hill 1989; Wongpornchai 1997; Ronge & Surarat 2002). The history of these basins helps to further constrain the activity of the Mae Ping fault zone. This paper focuses on the exhumation history of the region around the poorly exposed antiformal duplex in the NW illustrated in Figure 3, and the much better-constrained Chainat duplex to the SE (Fig. 1).\nThis study is based on collating available published and unpublished cooling age data for NW Thailand, and providing additional ZFT and AFT data which infill key areas where there was little published information. The aim of the work is to determine whether the patterns of uplift are consistent with one or more mechanisms of uplift, and specifically to determine patterns of uplift that might be associated with motion along the Mae Ping fault zone.\nA number of radiometric dating studies have been conducted in western Thailand, with a range of aims. The locations and cooling ages determined from these studies are shown in Figure 4. Several studies have focused on the uplift and erosion of gneisses in the Doi Suthep and Doi Inthanon areas, with regard to documenting the denudation history of putative metamorphic complexes associated with low-angle extensional detachments (Dunning et al. 1995; Rhodes 2002). Ahrendt et al. (1993, 1997) have regionally dated granites and gneisses in Thailand, and have related the ages to orogenic events. Charusiri (1989) obtained 40Ar/39Ar radiometric age dates from micas and feldspars from parts of the Three Pagodas fault zone and the Mae Ping fault zone, in order to understand the timing and genesis of ore deposits (Fig. 4). Upton et al. (1997) and Upton (1999) collected samples for apatite and zircon fission-track analysis in order to build a regional denudation history for Thailand, as well as focusing on more detailed local tectonic and exhumation problems in some areas (such as more concentrated sampling in the regions of the proposed metamorphic core complexes in the western highlands, and around the Mae Ping fault zone). Lacassin et al. (1997) specifically sampled the Mae Ping and Three Pagodas fault zones to determine the timing of strike-slip deformation; their results are discussed separately below.\nRegional map of NW Thailand, showing the location of cooling-age data used in this study.\nFor this study, samples were taken for apatite and zircon fission-track dating from the Lan Sang area into the Chainat Ridge area (Fig. 4) to determine whether any systematic change in ages occurred along the strike, and perpendicular to the Mae Ping fault zone passing away from the Lan Sang area (Table 1). The samples were analysed in the laboratories at the University College of London. The results of this work were partially successful; however, a systematic spread of data could not be obtained, due to unsuitable outcrop lithologies and insufficient apatite or zircon in some samples (UBDA-7, 8, 10, 11 and 12). New dates were obtained for two localities within the Chainat duplex (samples UBDA-9 and UBDA-13, Table 1, Fig. 4). Samples (UBDA-4 , 5, and 6, Table 1, Fig. 4) within the Lan Sang area validated previous results and established similarity between biotite 40Ar/39Ar and ZFT cooling ages (Table 2). However, east and NE of the Mae Ping fault zone, around Tak, a cluster of cooling ages (samples UBDA-1, 2 and 3, Table 1, Fig. 4) showed AFT central ages around 19\u201320 Ma.\nResults of apatite and fission-track dating conducted for this study\nComparison of high-temperature cooling ages determined for the Lan Sang Gneisses using zircon fission-track and 40Ar\u201339Ar of biotite from three separate studies\nCooling-age studies in western Thailand\nThe cooling ages available from the studies mentioned above are mostly from 40Ar/39Ar biotite ages, zircon and apatite fission-tracks. Complications arising from mineral structure, grain size and previous cooling rates mean that the concept of \u2018closure temperatures\u2019 (Dodson 1979) for many mineral/isotopic systems (e.g. 40Ar/39Ar) is an oversimplification. For example, chemical composition and the presence of large quantities of fluid inclusions can cause significant changes to standard closure temperatures form micas (e.g. McDougall & Harrison 1999; Dunlap 2003). However, the temperature range below which many of these systems effectively become stable can yield qualitative estimates of cooling rates experienced by a sample. In this context, stability means retention, within the crystal system, of some measurable product of various radioactive decay reactions. As an approximate guide, the temperature range below which the system is effectively stable is as follows (Carter 1999; McDougall & Harrison 1999; Dunlap 2003): 40Ar/39Ar for muscovite=400\u2013250 \u00b0C; 40Ar/39Ar for biotite 300\u00b150 \u00b0C, zircon fission-track 320\u2013200\u00b0C, and apatite fission-track 110\u201360 \u00b0C. Consequently, for the high-temperature cooling age map (Fig. 5), dates for biotite 40Ar/39Ar and zircon fission-track were combined. Whilst this is clearly a great approximation, where zircon fission-track and biotite 40Ar/39Ar ages have been obtained from the same or nearby localities (e.g. Lan Sang, Fig. 4), the resulting cooling ages are very similar (Fig. 4; Tables 1 & 2). The low-temperature cooling-age map (Fig. 6) is entirely based on apatite fission-track ages from Upton (1999) and this study (Table 1).\nMap of high-temperature cooling ages for NW Thailand, mostly from zircon fission-track and 40Ar/39Ar biotite cooling ages. Some of the older apatite fission-track dates are included because they provide minimum ages for high-temperature cooling.\nMap of low-temperature cooling ages for NW Thailand, from apatite fission-track data.\nDetermination of the cooling history along the Three Pagodas and Mae Ping fault zones, by Lacassin et al. (1997)\nEvidence for dating motion on the Mae Ping (Wang Chao) and Three Pagodas fault zones relies considerably upon the work by Lacassin et al. (1997) who specifically dated synkinematic micas and feldspars from metasediments and orthogneisses within mylonitic shear zones, using the 40Ar/39Ar technique. Biotite cooling ages for the Three Pagodas fault zone suggested that the dates of the onset and end of sinistral motion were \u226536 Ma to 33 Ma, and for the Mae Ping fault zone \u226533 Ma to 30 Ma (Figs 4 & 7). Lacassin et al. (1997) modelled the cooling histories of the Lan Sang samples, calibrated by 40Ar/39Ar step-heating of a K-feldspar. The results indicate that cooling from 400 \u00b0C to 185 \u00b0C was rapid between 32.5 Ma and 31 Ma, in order to fit the last 16% of argon release. These authors also identified a second cooling step at about 23.5 Ma, before a final isothermal step (about 75\u00b0C). Lacassin et al. also stressed that the 33 Ma to 30 Ma dates probably documented the last increments of ductile sinistral deformation. The authors also suggest that late-stage exhumation of the Lan Sang Gneisses might be explained by normal faulting within a transtensional setting. The onset of dextral strike-slip motion was placed at about 23 Ma, but was not constrained by any radiometric dating.\nExhumation history for four transects through NW Thailand. See Figure 4 for locations of the transects and sources of the data. a\u2013a\u2032 southernmost transect through the Umphang Gneiss area (1), Khlong Lhan Gneiss (2), and Chainat duplex area (3). Location 1 shows the rapid 50\u201340 Ma exhumation. A transect along the Mae Sot\u2013Tak road is shown in b\u2013b\u2032. Along the western part of the road, cooling began early (locations 4 and 5) in the Late Cretaceous\u2013Early Cenozoic and the Lan Sang Gneiss displays one phase of exhumation between about 35 Ma and 30 Ma (6) and a second phase around 25\u201319 Ma. Transect c\u2013c\u2032 runs from a large north\u2013south-trending splay of the Mae Ping fault zone in the west, to a putative metamorphic core complex in the east. In the west, exhumation is early (Late Cretaceous\u2013Early Cenozoic) and relatively slow. There is no indication of rapid, strike-slip-related uplift. In the east (location 8) exhumation was extremely rapid at around 20\u201318 Ma. The northernmost transect (d\u2013d\u2032) shows a similar pattern to c\u2013c\u2032, except that the rapid exhumation in the east is younger, from about 16\u201313 Ma.\nThe work by Lacassin et al. (1997) also obtained biotite cooling ages between 29 Ma and 23 Ma in some gneisses away from the strike-slip fault zones, including the Bhumipol Dam to the north (Fig. 4). The gneisses at Bhumipol Dam show no evidence for Cenozoic shear, and hence are inferred to represent denudation between 29 Ma and 23 Ma, possibly related to a Cenozoic basin-bounding normal fault (Sam Ngao Fault) to the east (Lacassin et al. 1997).\nPatterns of cooling ages in western Thailand\nThe highest density of cooling-age data clusters around the Mae Ping fault zone and the area to the north. The area south of the Mae Ping fault zone, to the Three Pagodas fault zone, is much more sparsely sampled (Fig. 4). Therefore much of this discussion will focus on the northern half of western Thailand. To understand the uplift and erosion history of the Mae Ping fault zone, it is necessary to investigate not only the timing of exhumation around the fault zone, but also the regional pattern.\nUpton (1999) sampled outcrops in western Thailand extensively for the purposes of apatite fission-track analysis, and produced composite cooling paths for a subset of those samples, using zircon fission-track and published K\u2013Ar dates. For the apatite fission-track data, Upton et al. (1997) and Upton (1999) identified two sample suites that differ in both age and cooling history. The largest subset displayed results that mostly ranged between 24 Ma and 13 Ma. However, three samples with central ages of 40, 34 and 29 Ma were also included. These samples in the first set are characterized by narrow s.d. 1\u20131.5 \u03bcm, unimodal and long (>14 \u03bcm) mean track-length distributions, consistent with rapid cooling through the partial annealing zone. Upton (1999) estimated the average cooling rates as between 8.5 \u00b0C Ma and 25 \u00b0C Ma. The second subset ranged between 80 Ma and 37 Ma, and shows broad track-length distributions, with standard deviations between 2.03\u20132.49 \u03bcm. Mean track-length distributions are relatively short (12\u201313 \u03bcm), typical of samples exposed to short-lived, high temperatures, or prolonged residence in the partial annealing zone to reduce track length. The second suite of samples exhibited much slower average cooling rates, of about 1.85\u00b10.55 \u00b0C Ma. The young AFT ages of the first subset form an extensive north\u2013south-trending region along the western highlands of Thailand (Fig. 6). On either side of this north\u2013south trend, in central northern Thailand and along the Thailand\u2013Myanmar border region, older ages of the second subset are found (Figs. 6 & 7).\nThe variations in cooling-age history in the region are discussed in the context of three different provinces: the Chainat duplex; the Mae Ping fault zone; and the putative metamorphic core complex area between the Mae Sariang\u2013Hot Highway and Chiang Mai. These provinces are exemplified in four cooling-age traverses (Fig. 7), and are discussed below.\nChainat duplex area (Fig. 7 a\u2013a\u2032)\nThe southern traverse (Figs 4 & 7 a\u2013a\u2032) crosses the Khlong Lhan restraining bend and passes into the Chainat duplex. Location 1 is from the Umphang Gneiss area (Upton 1999; Fig. 4), The deepest crustal rocks exposed in the duplex, called the Umphang Gneiss, lie on the western side of the restraining bend. The U\u2013Pb analysis of the Umphang Gneiss, indicates that the paragneiss underwent high-grade metamorphism during the Late Triassic (Mickein 1997). A ZFT central age of 47\u00b13 was obtained for the Umphang Gneiss by Upton (1999; Fig. 4). An apatite central age of 40\u00b12 Ma for the Umphang Gneiss (Upton 1999) suggests rapid exhumation on the western margin of the Chainat Ridge during the Eocene (Fig. 7 a\u2013a\u2032). At the NW corner of the duplex, where the Mae Ping fault zone splays to the SE, are the Khlong Lhan Gneisses. The U\u2013Pb dating of zircon indicates a slightly younger age for high-grade metamorphism in the Khlong Lhan Gneiss compared with the Umphang Gneiss, of 174\u00b15\u20136 Ma, whilst a monazite age of 117\u00b13 Ma (Mickein 1997) indicates a subsequent high-temperature metamorphic event during the Cretaceous. ZFT and K\u2013Ar analyses by Upton (1999) from both gneisses show overlap at the 2\u03c3-error level, thus indicating that they had cooled below the 350\u2013260 \u00b0C isotherm (Fig. 7) by the end of the Eocene (c. 40\u201343 Ma). However, the Khlong Lhan Gneiss has a 40\u00b11 Ma ZFT central age, and a 20\u00b11 AFT age, indicating either slower exhumation between 40 Ma and 20 Ma or a younger exhumation event imposed on the older Eocene one (Fig. 7 a\u2013a\u2032). Whatever the precise scenario, the cooling history is unlike the Umphang Gneiss, which just shows rapid cooling during the Eocene (Fig. 7).\nWithin the main part of the Chainat duplex there are only a few Triassic granitic outcrops. Five localities were sampled, and two yielded usable AFT data (Table 1). AFT central ages of 22.4\u00b12.8 and 18.2\u00b11.6 were obtained (Fig. 4). It is uncertain from these results alone whether the Early Miocene cooling ages represent regional uplift and erosion, or a specific structural event related to strike-slip deformation within the duplex. Seismic data from the Lahan graben of the Phitsanulok Basin show that the basin ceased to be active in the latest Early Miocene, coincident with the AFT ages (Smith et al. 2007, paper 11, this volume). This uplift is not seen in the sedimentary section of the Ayutthaya or Suphan Buri basins on the southern margin of the duplex. Hence, the present available data suggest that uplift occurred in a NW\u2013SE-trending belt, in the northern part of the duplex (Fig. 6).\nMae Ping fault zone (Fig. 7 b\u2013b\u2032)\nPassing westward into Myanmar along the Mae Ping fault zone, the muscovite 40Ar/39Ar cooling ages increase \u2013 a similar trend to that established by the AFT ages further north (Figs 6 & 7 c\u2013c\u2032 and d\u2013d\u2032). Charusiri (1989) obtained 40Ar\u201339Ar cooling ages from micas in granites adjacent to the Mae Ping fault zone in westernmost Thailand (Fig. 4). The oldest ages obtained lie furthest to the west (69.5\u201372 Ma), and young eastward (69.5\u201365.7 Ma and 47.5 Ma). A sample of hydrothermal muscovite collected from a wolframite-bearing quartz vein (collected underground) yielded 40Ar\u201339Ar spectra with well-defined plateau ages of c. 69.5\u00b10.68 Ma and 70.6 Ma. Muscovite from younger, cross-cutting scheelite\u2013fluorite\u2013calcite\u2013quartz and sphalerite\u2013muscovite\u2013quartz veins yielded fusion dates of c. 69.2 Ma and 71.9 Ma. The hydrothermal muscovite probably crystallized at temperatures between 300 and 425 \u00b0C, under maximum confining pressures of about 170 to 200 MPa (i.e. depths of 6\u20137 km).\nFurther ESE along the trend of the Mae Ping fault zone, Charusiri dated samples from the Mae Suri Mine. Hydrothermal muscovite from a tungsten-rich quartz vein was dated using total fusion and step-heating methods. The total fusion age is c. 45.2 Ma, and the integrated age c. 47.5\u00b10.51 Ma. The 40Ar\u201339Ar age spectrum displays a well-defined plateau of 46 Ma. The minimum at the first step (21.5 Ma) may be a result of thermal resetting. There was evidence of shearing within the mine that suggested emplacement of the veins during sinistral displacement of the Mae Ping fault zone.\nThe cooling ages obtained by Charusiri (1989) are not as directly linked to the Mae Ping fault zone as the Lan Sang ages (Lacassin et al. 1997). But they are close to the fault zone, and thus show that passing west, close to the fault zone, there is no evidence for large-scale Oligocene regional exhumation related to strike-slip faulting that would have obliterated the older ages. Hence, the exhumation of mid-crustal rocks at Lan Sang between 33 and 30 Ma (Fig. 7 b\u2013b\u2032 location 6) is an atypical and localized feature of the fault zone that requires specific explanation.\nThe pattern associated with high-temperature cooling (Fig. 6) is very consistent with the AFT results of Upton (1999). The contour patterns (Figs 5 & 6) suggest that, for much of the length of the Mae Ping fault zone, strike-slip motion does not equate with significant Oligocene uplift and erosion, and that if the exhumation is associated with the Mae Ping fault zone, then it is of Late Cretaceous\u2013Palaeogene age (Fig. 7 b\u2013b\u2032). The overall cooling pattern indicates that the strike-slip deformation has not dominated the cooling history. The low-temperature cooling pattern shown in Figure 6 reveals a predominantly north\u2013south-trending exhumation pattern. This pattern may represent both more local tectonic effects such as extensional or inversion related uplift and erosion, and more regional uplift and erosion at least partially related to climate change (Morley & Westaway 2006). For example, the syn-rift basins of northern Thailand show a switch from palynomorphs associated with a temperate climate to tropical forms in the Early Miocene (Songtham 2000; Ratanasthien 2002); this change is also seen in peninsular Malaysia (Morley 1998).\nExhumation of the Lan Sang area can either be interpreted as part of a regional Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene north\u2013south-trending event, or as a composite of strike-slip-related deformation superimposed on a north\u2013south striking regional trend. We feel that there is sufficient evidence as presented by Lacassin et al. (1997) to justify much of the exhumation at Lan Sang as being related to strike-slip deformation.\nHot\u2013Mae Sariang highway-region west of Chiang Mai (Fig. 7 c\u2013c\u2032 & d\u2013d\u2032)\nThe two northernmost traverses (Fig. 7 c\u2013c\u2032, d\u2013d\u2032) are through the putative metamorphic core complex area (MacDonald et al. 1993; Rhodes et al. 1997, 2002). Traverse c\u2013c\u2032 is along the Hot\u2013Mae Sariang highway (Figs 6 & 7). The pattern of cooling was defined by Upton (1999) using AFT, ZFT and K\u2013Ar biotite cooling ages. Passing westward, four AFT ages progressively become older, ranging from 19\u00b12 Ma and 18\u00b11 Ma, through 22\u00b11 Ma in the east to 37\u00b12 Ma in the west (Fig. 7). For the 18\u00b11 Ma sample, Upton (1999) also obtained a 19\u00b11 ZFT age, and nearby a concordant K\u2013Ar biotite cooling age of 20\u00b11 Ma, was reported. For the 22\u00b11 Ma sample, Upton (1999) obtained a ZFT age of 52\u00b14 Ma, and a K\u2013Ar biotite cooling age of 67\u00b12 Ma, indicating a much slower and more prolonged cooling history toward the west. Using isotopic dating, Mickein (1997) also identified a younging-to-the-east pattern along the Hot to Mae Sariang highway.\nOn the northernmost line (Fig. 7 d\u2013d\u2032) a similar pattern of cooling ages is seen, with slow, prolonged exhumation in the west (AFT central age of 80\u00b16 Ma) and rapid exhumation in the east. The timing of the eastern rapid exhumation becomes younger passing north, along line c\u2013c\u2032 (Fig. 7) with the AFT central ages being Early Miocene. Along line d\u2013d\u2032, the AFT central ages are Middle Miocene, with the nearest biotite 40Ar/39Ar age being 16\u00b10.2 Ma. The rapid Early and Middle Miocene cooling occurs in the region identified as the metamorphic-core-complex area. However, one problem with a simple core-complex story is that the rapid exhumation is young, compared with the age of the shearing defined by dating of biotite within the detachement zone, which is of Eocene age (Rhodes 2002).\nOne possible explanation of the cooling-age pattern lies in the model for basin subsidence in response to sediment loading, a model proposed by Morley & Westaway (2006). There, erosion of the sediment source area and deposition in the sedimentary basin triggers a return flow in the lower crust, from beneath the basin toward the sediment source area. Applied to Thailand, the model predicts lower-crustal flow from beneath the basins of the Gulf of Thailand toward the sediment source areas of the western highlands (Morley & Westaway 2006). If the pattern of erosion and lower-crustal flow shifted northward with time then this may explain the pattern of young, rapid cooling on the eastern side of the highlands.\nBefore discussing a model for the structural history of the Mae Ping fault zone, other constraints on timing of deformation and exhumation associated with the Mae Ping fault zone from adjacent sedimentary basins and the Chainat duplex area are reviewed.\nSignificance of Cenozoic basins for exhumation history\nSedimentary basins that were sites of subsidence synchronous with the areas of exhumation provide important constraints for the location and origin of exhumation. Here the basins within the western highlands are discussed.\nMae Lamao\nThe main exposures of the Mae Lamao basin are coarse conglomerates and sandstones along the main Tak\u2013Mae Sot road, and deeper levels of the basin exposed in a very small coal mine that lies north of the main Tak\u2013Mae Sot road (Fig. 3). The main coal seam is mined from the footwall of a normal fault. This fault strikes 325\u00b0 and dips 60\u00b0. It displays pure dip-slip striations that plunge 60\u00b0 238\u00b0SW. Bedding dips range between 306\u00b020\u00b0SW and 330\u00b024\u00b0WSW. The mine lies very close to the Mae Ping fault zone, just a kilometre or two south of one of the main fault strands (Fig. 3). There is little evidence in the outcrop for strike-slip deformation. Instead, the main normal fault and two secondary faults show almost pure dip-slip motions.\nIn the Mae Lamao Basin, deposits over 500 m thick comprise conglomeratic claystone and sandstone at the base, overlain by shales, oil shales, coal and sandstone. The palynology indicates a Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene age (Ratanasthien 1989), which is presumably also the age of the normal faulting. The coal seams pass abruptly laterally into thick conglomeratic sequences, indicating that the sediment from an adjacent uplifted area was dumped into the basin. There is little post-Miocene deposition except for fluvial deposits, indicating Early Miocene or later uplift and erosion. Vitrinite reflectance values from the coals average 0.45 (Ratanasthien 1989), i.e. the rocks experienced maximum temperatures of about 120 \u00b0C. If a 30 \u00b0C surface temperature is assumed, then, for a geothermal gradient of 3 \u00b0C/100 m, burial to 3 km is indicated. If a much higher rift-type geothermal gradient of 6 \u00b0C/100 m is assumed, then burial to 1.5 km is indicated. These numbers suggest that a considerably thicker, more extensive basin existed in the past and was removed by Early Miocene or later uplift and erosion. The basin geometry appears to be that of a simple uplifted and eroded rift. Hence, it is uncertain whether strike-slip motion was responsible for basin uplift, or whether it was just part of the more regional uplift and erosion event.\nMae Sot Basin\nThe Mae Sot Basin is one of the larger rift basins in northern Thailand, and lies just south of the Mae Ping Fault (Figs 2 & 3); hence, its evolution is of great interest for understanding the activity of the Mae Ping Fault. Unfortunately, there is little information in the public domain about the basin. Gibling et al. (1985) show a Bouguer gravity map for the Mae Sot Basin which comprises two en \u00e9chelon NNW\u2013SSE-trending gravity lows, which are 10\u201320 milligals less in magnitude than the areas of outcropping pre-Cenozoic basement. The largest anomaly indicates a Cenozoic basin centred around Mae Sot about 20 km long and 10 km wide. They also report on a drill-hole (DDH 3-5) made by the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR). The drill-hole penetrated 833 m of Cenozoic strata, dominated by carbonate mudstones and oil shales, without reaching basement. The well was drilled near an outcrop of oil shales reported in Gibling et al. (1985). Huminite-reflectance values for the section range between 0.25 and 0.34%, equal to soft brown coal rank (Gibling et al. 1985), and vitrinite reflectance values for the outcrops range between 0.25 and 0.4%, suggesting a sedimentary cover 800\u20131100 m thick that has subsequently been uplifted and eroded. Watanasak (1989) sampled the DMR IMS1 borehole in the Mae Sot Basin from 866\u2013454 m and, on the basis of palynology, determined an early Middle to late Early Miocene age for the section (i.e. probably in the age range of 18\u201313 Ma). The outcrop described by Gibling et al. 1985) is folded into a syncline. This outcrop indicates that compression/transpression affected the basin sometime after the Early Miocene.\nA 1997 vintage seismic line across the Mae Sot Basin is presented on website http://www.ccop.or.th/epf/thailand/thailand_petroleum.html. Figure 8 is a line drawing of the seismic line, showing that the basin has a half-graben geometry, expanding to the west. The seismic line also shows folding associated with basin inversion, and confirms the outcrop observations made around Mae Sot as well as the general basin geometry as determined by gravity data. Assuming an interval velocity of 3000 m sec\u20131, then the maximum depth of the basin on the seismic line is about 2600 m. Hence, it is very likely that a Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene section is present in the basin, below the section penetrated by the IMS-1 well.\nLine drawing of a seismic line through the Mae Sot Basin, on website http://www.ccop.or.th/epf/thailand/thailand_petroleum.html\nMae Tuen coalfield\nThe Mae Tuen coalfield is located in a small basin that lies along the northern trend of the Mae Ping fault zone, north of Lan Sang national park (Fig. 3). Ratanasthien (1990) describes the Mae Tuen coalfield as having early coals (Late Eocene\u2013Early Oligocene, i.e. probably in the range of 36\u201332 Ma) unconformably overlain by Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene strata. Vitrinite reflectance values from the coals are high (about 0.66% Ro, Ratanasthein, pers. comm., 2005). These values suggest uplift in the order of 2 km if a high (6 \u00b0C/100 m) geothermal gradient is assumed. Modern geothermal gradients associated with Thailand rift basins range between about 3 \u00b0C and 7 \u00b0C (see Morley et al. 2001 for a review). The modern values occur at a time when rifting has largely ceased or is very minor, yet they are high, and would seem to indicate a range of gradients appropriate for syn-rift times as well.\nThe relatively old age of the Mae Tuen Basin is unusual considering that other coal mines in northern Thailand exploit the reserves in basins of Late Oligocene\u2013Miocene age (e.g. Ratanasthien 2002). The Eocene\u2013Early Oligocene age is concomitant with biotite 40Ar/39Ar and zircon fission-track cooling ages in the Lan Sang area (Fig. 5). Hence, there is a strong indication that extensional collapse and basin formation occurred on the northern side of the Lan Sang Gneiss region during strike-slip deformation. Widening of the Tak\u2013Mae Sot road just south of the Lan Sang national park has cut into sediments of the Mae Tuen Basin. The road cut ting has revealed a poorly sorted conglomerate, including boulder-sized clasts composed of metamorphic rocks typical of the Lan Sang area, cut by minor normal faults. There are no shales present that could be used for dating. However, the coarse, immature deposits of metamorphic rock clasts are consistent with deposition adjacent to a rapidly uplifted and eroded region.\nStructural evolution of the Mae Ping fault zone\nThe still limited, but more regional, data review undertaken in this study shows that the region of the Lan Sang Gneisses where the Oligocene mica cooling ages have been obtained (Lacassin et al. 1997) is very limited geographically (Fig. 5). The Oligocene ages from Lan Sang are bracketed to the NW and SE by Eocene\u2013Late Cretaceous biotite, ZFT and AFT cooling ages (Figs 4, 5 & 7). Hence, the area with the highest number of cooling ages from the fault zone is not really representative of the history of exhumation along the entire fault zone. This is a demonstrably large fault zone in outcrop and on satellite images, a zone which extends hundreds of kilometres into Myanmar (Lacassin et al. 1997; Morley 2004). However, accurate quantification of the displacement has not yet been achieved: Lacassin et al. (1993) estimated a minimum 40 km of sinistral displacement based on shear-zone geometries. Using the offset of the regional geological markers, Lacassin et al. (1997) estimate about 150 km sinistral displacement, whilst the regional rigid-plate reconstructions of Replumaz & Tapponnier (2003) require up to 240 km of 40\u201330 Ma sinistral motion. The Replumaz & Tapponnier (2003) estimate is model-driven and is not constrained by geological markers, whereas the 150 km estimate is based on a generalized, but reasonable, offset of granitic outcrops, and is the preferred estimate here. However, detailed geochemical typing of offset granites is really necessary to demonstrate offset of the same granite body and to obtain a reasonably constrained offset estimate. Despite the probable large displacements, the exhumation history along the fault zone is highly variable and certainly not consistently in the range of the 33\u201330 Ma ages determined by Lacassin et al. (1997) (Fig. 5). This section discusses how the available cooling ages can be used to explain the structural evolution of the Mae Ping fault zone.\nThe early history of a Mae Ping fault zone as part of a transpressional orogen spanning the Late Cretaceous\u2013Palaeogene, related to collision of the Burma Block with the Shan Thai Block, has been discussed by Morley (2004), and is not discussed in detail here. The oldest cooling ages in westernmost Thailand (Figs 4 & 5) are part of the evidence for that orogenic event. The starting point for this discussion is the Eocene\u2013Oligocene history of the fault zone. Within the Chainat Ridge area the Umphang Gneiss to the west shows rapid exhumation within the time span of 50 Ma to 40 Ma (Figs 7 & 9). Cooling-age data south of the Umphang Gneisses are sparse (Fig. 4), but regionally appear to fit a north\u2013south trend of Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene AFT ages that extend from peninsular Thailand up to northern Thailand (Morley 2004). Hence, the Umphang Gneisses appear to be a patch of locally older exhumation, on the western margin of the Mae Ping fault zone, consistent with exhumation at the restraining bend of a sinistral strike-slip fault system (Fig. 9). However, the subsequent history of the Mae Ping fault zone in the area does not follow such a simple interpretation.\nProposed evolution of the Mae Ping fault zone to fit the cooling ages and outcrop patterns discussed in this study. Note: motions during the later stages of deformation (30 Ma\u2013present) were probably small (a few kilometres at most), and hence appear insignificant on the maps.\nThe outcropping geology in the Lan Sang area shows that the deepest crustal levels exposed along the Mae Ping fault zone are not in the restraining-bend area to the SE, but along a NW\u2013SE segment of the fault. This uplift occurred from 36 Ma to 30 Ma (Lacassin et al. 1997; Upton 1999; Figs 4, 5, 9 & Table 1), with the ages younging from the NW to the SE. The most intensely deformed part of the fault zone is a belt of gneisses and mylonitic metasediments about 6 km wide, within which are more highly deformed zones of ultramylonite (particularly calc-silicates and marbles) typically about 1 km wide (Lacassin et al. 1993). Assuming simple shear, Lacassin et al. (1993) estimated lower bounds of 7 to 9\u00b13 for the shear strain (\u03b3)% within the mylonite zones. The strain estimate implies a minimum of 35\u201345 km sinistral displacement within a c. 5-km-wide shear zone (Lacassin et al. 1993). The latest sinistral shear occurred along a retrograde P/T path, and progressed from ductile deformation to below the brittle\u2013ductile transition (Lacassin et al. 1993; 1997). Commonly, small-scale conjugate brittle faults cross-cut the ductile shear zone fabrics. They tend to strike east\u2013west (sinistral shear sense) and NNE\u2013SSW (dextral shear sense). Displacements are typically in the order of centimetres to metres, although a few may display tens of metres of displacement. The conjugate brittle faults indicate that the horizontal principal stress was (at least locally) approximately perpendicular to the strike of the gneissic foliation during their formation. In Figure 10b, the sheared mid-crustal rocks seen in Lan Sang are restored to a position east of the Umphang Gneiss. In this position they would have occupied the first Chainat duplex area. During progressive simple shear, the duplex was translated, became subject to horizontal simple shear, and became narrower. Vertical thickening is required to produce exhumation of the Palaeozoic\u2013Mesozoic cover and retrograde P/T conditions within the Lan Sang Gneisses.\nSchematic cross-section illustrating the structural evolution of the Mae Ping fault zone. The eastern half (ii) of the cross-section is kept in a constant location, equivalent to the location of the Lan Sang Gneisses today, whereas the western half (i) of the cross-section changes with time as section (ii) moves north to NW during sinistral displacement. Hence, for section (c), (i) is through the Umphang Gneiss area, whilst, for section (a), (i) is through the Mae Sot and Mae Lamao basins. Section a shows the present-day configuration; however, most of the uplift of the Lan Sang Gneiss was completed by the Late Oligocene, and apart from some erosion and minor strike-slip motion, and development of the Mae Sot and Mae Lamao basins, the geometry of the strike-slip fault zone is likely to have been similar from the Late Oligocene onward. The near-surface Lan Sang Gneiss geometry is based on the cross-section in Lacassin et al. (1997). Section (b) represents c. 34 Ma to 32 Ma ago. Since the Lan Sang Gneiss had to undergo vertical thickening and uplift to be exposed today, restoration of the gneisses through the bend requires that the region of strike-slip deformation becomes broader, with the amalgamated shear zones seen today at Lan Sang becoming more widely separated as they enter the northern bend of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend. Section (c) represents c. 40 Ma ago, prior to translation of the Lan Sang Gneisses around the northern bend. The Umphang Gneiss area was uplifted, cooled and became inactive. The restraining bend had begun to develop a number of strike-slip fault strands east of the Umphang Gneiss, which would develop into the Lan Sang Gneiss region. The principal strike-slip fault zones are shown as brittle faults in the upper crust passing into narrow, but broader shear zones in the brittle\u2013ductile transition and the upper part of the lower crust. It is uncertain whether the fault zone should be drawn as a narrow, discrete zone all the way through the crust to the Moho (e.g. Leloup et al. 2001), or whether the fault zone passes into typical lower-crustal flat-lying shear zones as strike-slip motion becomes accommodated by lower-crustal flow. Since the crust is likely to be hot in this area (Hall & Morley 2004), the lower crust is depicted as deforming along low-angle shear zones.\nWhilst some erosion of the Chainat duplex has occurred, it is noticeable that the area of the duplex is dominated by Palaeozoic\u2013Mesozoic sedimentary, metasedimentary and igneous rocks. Deeper crustal levels are exposed only where the Khlong Lhan Gneisses crop out in the NW corner of the duplex. The Khlong Lhan Gneisses show a cooling history (ZFT=40\u00b11 Ma, AFT=20\u00b11 Ma) different from the adjacent Umphang Gneiss (ZFT=47\u00b13 Ma, AFT= 40\u00b12 Ma) (Fig. 7). In Figure 9, the history of the Khlong Lhan Gneiss is explained as early exhumation occurring during entry into the restraining-bend area in the south of the duplex, and later exhumation where the gneisses entered the northern bend of the duplex. This interpretation of the history of the Khlong Lhan Gneiss implies that the main exhumation of the Lan Sang Gneisses did not occur at the obvious restraining-bend geometry, but as the rocks entered and turned the corner of the bend, passing from a north\u2013south to NNW\u2013SSE-striking fault segment to the NE\u2013SW-striking segment. The cooling-age data are consistent with this interpretation, the oldest (36\u201333 Ma) ZFT and biotite cooling ages in the Lan Sang Gneisses come from the NW area, whilst the youngest (30 Ma) come from the SE. Whilst the data-set is not sufficient to be definitive, these data fit with rocks entering the bend and then being uplifted and eroded. Probably the exhumed, cooled, and thus relatively strong, region of the Umphang Gneiss acted as a hard anvil or buttress at the bend in the Mae Ping fault trace, and served to focus stresses, as rocks to the NE were translated, uplifted and flattened when passing through the bend.\nOne of the key questions arising from the model for exhumation of the Lan Sang Gneiss is why was the Umphang Gneiss area exhumed first, then failed to continue reactivating, but instead acted as the hard, resistant buttress against which the Lan Sang Gneisses were flattened and sheared? The answer may lie in the granite intrusions prevalent in western Thailand. Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand are famous for their extensive suites of granitic rocks, in particular those formed during Triassic and Cretaceous orogenic events (e.g. Beckinsale et al. 1979; Charusiri et al. 1993). The Umphang Gneiss region is a mixture of para- and ortho-gneisses intruded by granites. Formation of granite melts depletes the lower crust of radiogenic materials and concentrates them in the granites (for example, see the discussion by Sandiford & McLaren 2002). Granite intrusion then transfers those radiogenic materials to higher levels of the crust. Uplift and erosion such as that seen in the Umphang Gneiss region would then remove much of the radiogenic granite to sedimentary basins, and elevate the remaining granite to very high levels in the crust. Consequently, the underlying area of gneiss is likely to be depleted in radiogenic material; have lower geothermal gradients than the surrounding regions; and thus be relatively cold and strong. Hence, the exhumation to the highest levels of the crust of the Umphang Gneiss would have brought the stronger granitic rocks west of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend into contact with weaker sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks east of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend. Deeper in the upper and middle crust, once the depleted, less-radioactive crust cooled, the Umphang Gneiss area would have been colder than the adjacent radioactive granitic Khlong Lhan gneiss region east of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend. Thus, the buttressing effect of the Umphang Gneiss would have developed, due to both mechanical and thermal variations in the upper crust, west and east of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend.\nOne feature of the northern boundary of the Lan Sang Gneisses is a sharp contact with an adjacent Cenozoic basin, mapped as a northward dipping normal fault by Lacassin et al. (1997) (Fig. 3). This Cenozoic basin contains the Mae Tuen coalfield with its Late Eocene\u2013Early Oligocene coals unconformably overlain by a Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene section (Ratanasthien 1990). Lacassin et al. (1997) interpreted the normal fault as a Late Oligocene feature. However, the coalfield data indicate that the normal fault probably operated during sinistral displacement as well. Hence, the inference is made here that whilst passing through the bend the sheared and uplifted, hot and thickened area of Lan Sang Gneisses underwent extensional collapse on the northern side, whilst being overthrust to the SW on the southern side of the shear zone (Fig. 10). The evidence from the modelled cooling histories using K-feldspar (Lacassin et al. 1997) indicates rapid cooling from 400 to 185 \u00b0C between 32.5 Ma and 31 Ma, which is consistent with exhumation occurring in a short burst, and not progressively throughout the strike-slip history of the fault zone. Movement through the bend, uplift, and concomitant extensional unroofing are interpreted here to be the reason for the narrow range of cooling ages.\nDuring the Late Oligocene\u2013Early Miocene (i.e. c. 28\u201322 Ma) there was a period of extensive rift-basin formation, from the Gulf of Thailand, all the way up to northern Thailand (as reviewed by Morley et al. 2001). Adjacent to the Mae Ping fault zone, several rift basins developed (the Mae Sot, Mae Lamao, Phitsanulok, Suphan Buri and Ayutthaya basins). The regional extent of these basins suggests a major change in regional stress, probably from an approximately east\u2013west SHmax direction favourable for sinistral strike-slip deformation, to a north\u2013south SHmax direction appropriate for east\u2013west extension (e.g. Huchon et al. 1994; Morley 2002).\nThe Chainat duplex area is a region of uplift, but, east of the Umphang Gneiss, deep levels of the crust are not exposed, despite having a restraining-bend geometry under sinistral motion. Relatively young uplift is supported by the 22\u201318 Ma range of three AFT central ages from the duplex area. As discussed in Smith et al. (2007) uplift within the duplex approximately coincides with the cessation of extension in the Lahan graben immediately north of the duplex, and a phase of inversion within the southern Phitsanulok Basin (Bal et al. 1992). The interpretation therefore implies a short-lived phase of minor (in the order of kilometres of horizontal displacement) sinistral motion occurred along the Mae Ping fault zone in the Early Miocene and contributed to the present duplex geometry.\nThe Mae Lamao and Mae Sot basins may have opened under dextral motion on the Mae Ping fault zone, but an oblique extensional origin is also possible. Satellite images show fault strands branching off the Mae Ping fault zone and linking with basin-bounding faults. However, whether the basins are just reactivating older strike-slip trends or are kinematically linked remains uncertain. In the basins the youngest rift fill is of Early Miocene to early Middle Miocene age; there are inversion structures in the Mae Sot Basin; and coal maturity points to removal of somewhere between 1.5 and 3 km of section from the Mae Lamao Basin. These data point to an uplift event of Middle Miocene or younger age. A known Late Miocene inversion event associated with sinistral deformation on NW\u2013SE-trending faults affects the Phitsanulok and Ayutthaya basins (Bal et al. 1992; Smith et al. 2007, this volume), and hence may also fit with the Mae Sot and Mae Lamao uplift history.\nVertical extent of strike-slip shear zones\nThere are two main models for the way that the large escape tectonics related shear zones might be behaving in SE Asia. In one model the shear zones penetrate the entire crust and upper mantle, and a broadening \u2013 but comparatively narrow and discrete \u2013 zone of simple shear (e.g. the Red River fault zone model of Leloup et al. 1995). The alternative model considers the fault zones to be essentially upper-crustal features that die out into broadly distributed shear within the middle or lower crust (e.g. England & Houseman 1989). The model in Figure 10 shows the Mae Ping fault zone as dying out within the lower crust. This is not because there is definitive evidence for either model, but because on balance it is the model most favoured by the data at present. First, there are no melts along the Mae Ping fault zone that indicate that magma of mantle origin was being tapped, unlike the model for the Red River fault zone (Leloup et al. 1995). Second, in Yunnan, where there are numerous important strike-slip zones, there does appear to be evidence for strike-slip faults dying out in the middle to lower crust \u2013 both from magneto-telluric data which indicate the presence of a middle-crustal detachment layer (e.g. Bai & Meju 2003) and from seismic tomography which shows no evidence for any deep perturbation of layers vertically beneath the major strike-slip fault zones (Liu et al. 2000). In the case of the Red River fault zone, it may follow a major suture zone at the surface, but tomography indicates that a relict Tethyan subduction zone at lower-crustal and mantle levels lies fifty or more kilometres west of the Red River fault zone (Liu et al. 2000). Hence, the upper-crustal zone of weakness does not appear to extend downward vertically throughout the crust to favour the development of a deep-penetrating strike-slip fault zone.\nComparison with other models of restraining-bend development\nCowgill et al. (2004) describe large restraining bends in terms of thrust- and strike-slip-dominated types. Thrust-dominated restraining bends display maximum uplift along the main length of the restraining bend, producing restraining-bend \u2018pop-ups\u2019 (e.g. Wakabayashi et al. 2004). Thrust-dominated earthquake focal mechanisms from restraining bends in California, such as the Santa Cruz bend, indicate that the vertical principal stress is the minimum principal stress (Hauksson & Jones 1988; Cowgill et al. 2004). In strike-slip-dominated restraining bends, the vertical principal stress axis is the intermediate principal stress. Strain and uplift are focused on the areas of changing fault orientation entering and leaving the restraining bend (Cowgill et al. 2004). There is also a tendency for the strike-slip fault to undergo vertical-axis rotation to reduce the bend angle (Cowgill et al. 2004). The Akato Tagh bend along the Altyn Tagh Fault in China, is cited by Cowgill et al. (2004) as such an example.\nThe Mae Ping fault zone does not appear to show a simple or constant pattern of deformation associated with the restraining-bend geometry of the Chainat duplex area. The oldest documented uplift began in the Umphang Gneiss region on the western margin of the duplex (Fig. 2), and may have spanned the time from about 50 Ma to 40 Ma (Fig. 9). This uplift suggests a thrust-dominated Santa Cruz-type restraining-bend setting (e.g. Hauksson & Jones 1988; Cowgill et al. 2004), where uplift of the gneisses occurred along the restraining bend in the hanging wall of a steeply inclined, west-dipping transpressional fault zone.\nThe next phase of deformation, during the Oligocene, appears to be very different in character, and involved extensive shearing and translation of the Lan Sang Gneiss around the northern bend in the fault zone just west of Tak (Fig. 9). The Khlong Lhan Gneiss underwent uplift moving into the restraining bend at about 40 Ma, and then appears to have been translated with only moderate cooling until a second uplift event occurred at 20 Ma at the exiting bend of the Chainat duplex. Conversely, the Lan Sang Gneisses moving around the exiting bend display rapid Late Eocene\u2013Early Oligocene cooling ages (Figs 5 & 7). This concentration of uplift at the entering and exiting bends is consistent with the strike-slip-dominated restraining-bend model (Cowgill et al. 2004), with transpressional deformation just being locally concentrated at the exiting bend. The two styles are also consistent with the regional tectonics, where early fault development occurred within a Late Cretaceous\u2013Palaeogene transpressional orogen (Morley 2004), whilst Oligocene reactivation occurred during Himalayan escape tectonics (Lacassin et al. 1997).\nMcClay & Bonora (2001) presented analogue models for restraining-bend duplex geometries, and they thus generated a range of deformation styles that changed according to: the amount of displacement; the angle between the restraining bend and the main strike-slip trend; and the width of the restraining bend. The last major stage of the Chainat restraining-bend development is the formation of the present-day Chainat duplex, and its geometry appears to be quite appropriate for comparison with the McClay & Bonora (2001) analogue models. In the Chainat duplex, the angle made by the restraining bend with respect to the main fault trend is about 35\u00b0, hence the 30\u00b0 stepover model shown in McClay and Bonora (their fig. 3) is the most appropriate. In this model, the duplex is dominated by internal faults striking subparallel to the restraining bend, unlike higher stepover angles, where a wider range of fault angles is developed. The model pattern is reminiscent of the dominant NNW\u2013SSE to north\u2013south strike of ridges within the Chainat duplex, bounded by NW\u2013SE-striking faults to the north and south (Fig. 2). It is quite apparent from analogue models and descriptions of natural examples of strike-slip duplexes (e.g. Laney & Gates 1996; McClay & Bonora 2001; Cunningham et al. 2003) that the relatively simple, classic strike-slip duplex geometry becomes complicated by a wide range of fault trends, rotation of faults, and variable fault kinematics once large displacements become imposed. Whilst the comparative simplicity of the Chainat duplex geometry might be misleading (and a function of exposure), the lack of strong uplift (and exposure of higher metamorphic-grade rocks) within the duplex; the long, linear, uninterrupted trend of the Jurassic ridge on the west side of the duplex (Smith et al. 2007, paper 11, this volume); and the 22 Ma to 18 Ma AFT ages, all indicate that it is a comparatively young feature that developed late in the history of the fault zone. It appears to represent the third incarnation of uplift at the restraining bend.\nDuring the Late Oligocene to Pliocene, the rift basins of central and northern Thailand document a series of extensional phases punctuated by periods of inversion (e.g. Morley et al. 2000, 2001), and testify to a rapidly evolving stress regime. Two episodes of inversion during the Early Miocene and the latest Miocene to Early Pliocene appear to be quite widespread (Morley et al. 2000; 2001), but at least four episodes of inversion have been recorded in some basins (Bal et al. 1992; Morley et al. 2000). Probably the dominant stress regime was extensional, with SHmax oriented approximately north\u2013south, as it is today (Bott et al. 1997). The orientations of inversion-related folds, inverted normal faults, and episodically active strike-slip faults indicate that during episodes of inversion the stress regime may have ranged from strike-slip to compression, and the SHmax direction ranged between north\u2013south and east\u2013west (Morley et al. 2000, 2001). This brief summary of regional data indicates that the latest history of the Chainat duplex was characterized by short episodes of activity during phases of basin inversion, and there is clear structural evidence for sinistral motion within the duplex, from folded Mesozoic rocks and fault kinematic data (Smith et al. 2007).\nThe NW\u2013SE trending Three Pagodas Fault to the south has Late Cenozoic basins developed at north\u2013south releasing-bend geometries (Morley 2002). The low-level earthquake activity that affects northern and western Thailand today is dominated by dextral strike-slip fault-plane mechanisms on NW\u2013SE-striking faults and sinistral focal mechanisms for NE\u2013SW-striking faults; the SHmax direction is approximately north\u2013south (e.g. Bott et al. 1997; Morley 2004). From these two lines of evidence and the observed dextral slickensides within the duplex, it is concluded that the Chainat duplex was also reactivated episodically under minor dextral motion.\nThe study by Lacassin et al. (1997) remains vitally important to our understanding of the Mae Ping fault zone, but highlights the problem of drawing conclusions from a geographically limited area of the fault zone. Other parts of the fault do not show the same cooling-age histories. Both to the SE (Umphang and Khlong Lhan Gneisses, Fig. 7) and the NW (Fig. 5) of the Lan Sang Gneisses cooling ages become older. The rapid cooling ages of the Lan Sang area do not appear to be representative of the entire fault zone, or even a long segment of it, but instead record an unusual exhumation event, interpreted here to be a passage around the exiting restraining bend. In addition, the regional north\u2013south trend of cooling-age patterns seen for biotite, ZFT and AFT data (Figs 5 & 6) indicates that, at least in part, exposure of the Lan Sang Gneisses is related to more regional exhumation patterns than strike-slip specific uplift and erosion.\nGiven the available range of major structures in the area (large rift basins, pull-apart basins, low-angle extensional detachments, major strike-slip faults, strike-slip duplexes, the \u2018extensional collapse\u2019 normal fault north of Lan Sang) and the available range of cooling ages (and associated data such as sedimentary-basin history), our ability to construct the structural model remains limited, and numerous questions remain outstanding. Considerably more supplementary data is required to test the models presented in this paper and to develop a good understanding of the relationships between different structural styles. For example, the way that the region of \u2018metamorphic core complexes\u2019 west of Chiang Mai, down to the Mae Sariang\u2013Hot highway (between arrows c\u2013c\u2032, Fig. 4) connects with the Mae Ping fault zone is uncertain. The Umphang Gneiss appears to be an island of Eocene exhumation in the western ranges, surrounded by Oligocene\u2013Miocene cooling ages, but again data south and west of the gneisses are very sparse and additional information is required to fill in the gaps in our knowledge.\nDespite the caveats associated with the interpretation of the data and its limitations, a fairly detailed model for the evolution of the fault zone has been proposed in this paper, and can be tested in future studies. The Cenozoic history of the predominantly sinistral Mae Ping strike-slip fault zone shows considerable strain in the vicinity of the Khlong Lhan restraining bend. This deformation can be understood in terms of models proposed for other restraining beds (strike-slip v. thrust-dominated restraining bends Cowgill et al. 2004) and analogue modes of early restraining-bend deformation (McClay & Bonora 2001). Initial uplift and erosion on the western side of the restraining bend unroofed the Umphang Gneisses during the Eocene, probably in a thrust-dominated restraining-bend context. Later, as regional deformation evolved from a transpressional orogen related to terrane collision, to escape tectonics associated with the main India\u2013Eurasia collision (Morley 2004) the restraining bend shows strike-slip-dominated characteristics (Cowgill et al. 2004). Passing through the northern (exiting) bend in the restraining bend, the northern side of the fault zone was subject to extensive simple shear and vertical thickening, resulting in uplift, erosion and extensional unroofing during passage through the bend. The resulting 5\u20136-km-wide mid-crustal shear zone exposed at Lan Sang records cooling ages consistent with this passage through the bend. Possibly prior to flattening and simple shear passing through the bend, this zone was originally some 40\u201350 km wide. The final phase of restraining-bend deformation (Late Oligocene\u2013Recent) occurred under a complexly evolving stress field when episodically relatively small displacements (probably totalling a few kilometres of motion) with both sinistral and dextral sense of motion affected the Chainat duplex area.\nM.

Total of 23 Students and two faculty members visited selected places like Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Lavasa Township and Pune. The study was mainly focused to give an understanding about the various issues of urban planning and providing infrastructural solutions for that. Students visited Dharavi and interacted with the people to understand the living conditions inthe slums.\nTour to Mumbai could provide a fillip to the understanding about the infrastructural management of a megacity. Students were identified into different groups and directed to study various issues like transportation, Housing, and Environmental Aspects. They documented various housing typologies; issues of slums, various major infrastructures, like Bandra Worli Sea Link project, progress of metro construction, and issues of transportation in the city.\nCity and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) of Maharashtra at Navi Mumbai, had arranged a special lecture and a field visit to give an idea about Navi Mumbai Master Plan implementation process.\nVisit to the Lavasa Township was an eye opener to the students about the new ideas of urban planning and need to consider the environmental aspect of it. In Pune students documented the new modalities of development by using land as the tool for attracting investment. In Pune students visited the Magarpatta Township. Visit to Magarpatta provided an understanding of the creation of combinations of housing, commercial, public and semi public land uses for a sustainable livelihood.\nThe six day study tour was successfully coordinated by Prof. Rama U Pandey and Prof. Paulose N Kuriakose.",

A selection of historic artefacts and powerful stories are brought together in Mathematics: The Winton Gallery to display the way mathematics has impacted our most fundamental human concerns \u2013 from trade to war, and from life to death.\nDrawing inspiration from one of the gallery\u2019s key exhibits \u2013 the Handley Page 'Gugnunc' Aeroplane \u2013 Zaha Hadid Architects realized the space using the equations of airflow used in the aviation industry. The smooth, curvaceous layout and lines of the space illustrate the air that would have flowed around the historic aircraft when in flight. Rounded structures are depicted throughout the gallery in the form of benches, display units and the central pod installation. By flooding the interior with purple light, the designers endeavoured to set the stage for mathematics as a subject of intangible beauty.\nCurator Dr David Rooney placed the 1929 aircraft at the centre of the exhibition due to its ground-breaking impact in the aviation industry and research fields. In addition, it encapsulates the gallery\u2019s overarching theme, demonstrating as it does how mathematical practice has helped solve real-world problems; in this instance, it paved the way for the safe passenger flights that we rely on today.",

The axolotls, also known as Mexican salamander, are actually amphibians and not walking fish, although they do spend their entire lives in water. The axolotl\u2019s name is derived from the Latin words \u201catl\u201d (water) and \u201cxolotl\u201d (monster). They retain their larval features as adults and never go through metamorphosis.\nThe axolotls are currently the eighth most endangered species in the world with less than 100 individuals currently left in the wild. Their natural habitat is in an area of less than 10 square kilometers in the region of Xochimilco, Mexico. The water quality in the canals they live in has been deteriorating from increased pollution levels. The introduction of larger fish such as carp and tilapia to control aquatic weeds and insects has also affected their population level.\nThe Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium had a pair of Axolotls that recently had babies, and two of the juveniles were donated to the Saint Francis University Biology department. Students in the Aquarium and Zoo Science program will set up their tank, write a care manual and gain experience caring for these unique creatures.",

Today I'll go to Narita to be as close to the airport as possible, before I fly back tomorrow.\nThere has been a new typhoon coming up, and it threatened to stop me from leaving. But yesterday it had moved quicker as expected, but no doubt with rain and wind in its tail. But the latest is, that it takes a route west of Japan and therefore only gives rain on the western coasts. So the wheather should be fine today.\nBut back to the goodbyes. It seems a little like a paradox, but it's THEM that thanks ME for having been a guest in their home, and that is some way typical japanese. But where all the thanks seems exaggerated in shops and at road constructions, it doesn't seem unnatural here. I on my side thank them for having given me a home while I've been in Japan, for that's how I've felt it.\nBut duty calls and first Nori and then his mother leaves to go working, while I stay with father. I upload some letters and pack and 11.30 I wave goodbye for the last time and head for Narita. I don't get the rain from the typhoon, but the wind... It almost blows me off the road several times on the first part. Mostly headwind. It's very unpleasant on the narrow road on the other side of the river. On some bridges I have to stop and wait for the line of cars to pass, but later a sidewalk starts, and I use it even it's very poor. For long straight parts there's suddenly tail wind.\nI get to Narita and find the station, T.I. and at last my hostel, which I booked yesterday. Then I go to check the road to the airport. It's 6 km on Route 295. When I said I was on bicycle, the lady in the T.I. ment it would be best to take the train. It\nwould certainly be easy, but then I'd have to carry both the bike and a big box.\nI've bought two cardboard boxes which a smaller than the one I had when I came. Actually 20 cm shorter, but that was the biggest. I've left my matress, which I have given up... But it will be too small anyway, so I have to extend it in some way. I had to walk all the way from the home center because of the wind, it took \ufffd an hour.\nYou get to the airport by Route 295, but when you get there... I ended by mistake at Terminal 2. To get to Terminal 1 from there was a nightmare. After having gone up on an esalator and passed through a parking house, I took a wrong road and ended up in tunnel after tunnel without sidewalk leading me nowhere. Had to wait a couple of minutes to cross the road and go back in the other lane.\nNow I know that I should be able to check in from 8.10 in the South Wing on 4th floor at counter H. I have been test packing - the box is too small - and folded the cardboard so it should fit under the tent on the rear rack. I'm ready for the morning....",

        "raw_content": "\u201cThe Whole World Watches This Competition\u201d\nPhotos: Philipp Horak/Anzenberger, M. Bergmann\nChairman of the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d jury: Dominique Meyer\nDominique Meyer has been chairman of the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d jury since 2010. In this interview, he speaks about his passion for music and discusses how young performers should make use of the competition to advance their careers.\nDominique Meyer, director of the Vienna State Opera and chairman of the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d jury, was born in Alsace, France, and grew up in France and Germany. He studied business administration and later worked as an advisor to the French minister of culture. He helped launch the French-German broadcasting station arte and was involved in preparations for the soccer World Cup in France. He became director of the Lausanne Opera in 1994, then joined the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es in 1999 as its manager and artistic director.\nchange.story: You seem very focused when you\u2019re participating in the jury. You sometimes close your eyes for minutes at a time\u2026\nDOMINIQUE MEYER: Naturally I want to concentrate on the music and the voices as much as possible. Yet it\u2019s also important to look, since that\u2019s how you see if a singer has stage presence. But first you have to concentrate on the voice to hear if it\u2019s even, if the intonation is as it should be and if it is rhythmically correct.\nThere have been articles published describing how you went to the theater, the opera or a concert every day when you were at university. Did you really go every day?\nWho introduced you to music?\nSomething must have piqued your interest in music and opera\u2026\nIt all started when I happened to hear some music by Bach. It was a recording of Bach sonatas. After that, music was my passion. I listened to and attended everything I could. I then soon discovered my love of opera.\nWhich was the first?\nThe first opera I saw was Parsifal. Not necessarily and easy one.\nMusic has always been very meaningful for you. Did you ever dream of becoming a singer?\nNo, not at all! And I fully believe that opera-house managers should not dream of being artists as well. It\u2019s healthy to be at a certain remove when you hold such a position.\nHow are you introducing your son to music?\nHe was basically born into it. He loves music and comes with me to performances. He even travels with me. A theater is always interesting and a wonderful place for a child.\nWhat should parents not do as they help their children develop an appreciation for music?\nForcing children to do something is the biggest mistake. That\u2019s because everything you do you should do with passion.\nMany of the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d participants say they already knew at the age of five or six that they wanted to be singers and perform onstage when they grew up. What is the right way to get children involved in music?\nBy not thinking only of your own prestige. Let\u2019s say a well-known orchestra invites 300 teenagers to the final dress rehearsal of Bruckner\u2019s Ninth at 10 o\u2019clock in the morning. It\u2019s bound to be a disaster. The whole event will end up being all about the orchestra and its purported efforts to reach out to young people.\nIt would be better to involve very young children in special programs \u2013 expose them to operas, yes, but make sure everything has been well prepared and is suitable for children. They have to be able to identify with it.\nHow do you make sure that happens?\nBy creating a connection between the young audience members and the people onstage. Here in Vienna, for example, we stage a children\u2019s version of The Magic Flute the day after the Vienna Opera Ball. We even give two performances. The Vienna Philharmonic plays and members of the Vienna State Opera ensemble sing \u2013 everything is first rate. And there are 3,000 children in the audience. All have been well prepared for this moment, since the instruments and the opera\u2019s story have been explained to them in a child-friendly manner. The result is that the youngsters are completely engaged \u2013 it\u2019s simply delightful.\nYou have been chairman of the \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d jury since 2010. How should young talents make use of this competition to advance their careers?\nThey should see it as a huge opportunity. \u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d is extremely important, since if you are successful there, everyone working in the field of opera will immediately know it. It\u2019s not just that the jury is full of recognized professionals. The entire world watches what happens at the competition, since the audience includes many other important decision-makers who are also keeping their eyes open for young talent.\nHave you discovered up-and-coming performers in this way?\nOf course. I have a number of singers here in Vienna who have won in Gu\u0308tersloh.\n\u201cNeue Stimmen\u201d brings people of many different nationalities together.\nYes, and I think that\u2019s wonderful. The competition is a meeting point for talented individuals from countries all over the world. During the rehearsals you see them together \u2013 eating, taking walks, talking. It\u2019s very satisfying, since a competition should also be a way of bringing people together.\nThe contestants come from so many different nations. Do you notice a difference in their training?\nTo some extent, yes. But the differences are getting smaller since the world is becoming more international. There are few national schools, just voice teachers who are either good or bad.\nDoes it affect you when, as a member of the jury, you notice some contestants are extremely nervous?\nYes, of course! Sometimes it helps to make a small joke at the outset in order to defuse the situation a bit.\nCONTINUE with \u201cThe Road to G\u00fctersloh\u201d The Jury: Experts from around the World",

        "raw_content": ">Owning Peace\n>I rarely read the paper in the morning. I usually just take my coffee straight into the day\u2019s activities\u2026 writing, painting, or household stuff. But this morning I had my coffee in bed with two servings of wisdom, from very dissimilar sources.\nFirst, the wisdom of Archimandrite Sofian Boghiu\u2020 (2002) \u2026 a Romanian priest-monk who spent some time at Holy Dormition of the Mother of God (Orthodox) Monastery in Rives Junction, Michigan before his death in 2002. Father Sofian was Abbot of Antim Monastery, Bucharest. Holy Dormition (the monastery I have been visiting since 1994) reprinted an article by Fr. Sofian in their winter monastic journal, The Burning Bush, which I received in the mail this week.\nThe ar ticle was about spiritual discipline in general and the practice of fasting, in particular. Fr. Sofian says that our ascetic efforts must be \u201cguided by inner temperance\u2026 with delight and willingness, not with hatred; it must be a joy.\u201d He talks about how important it is during a fast (and always) to forgive one another. He talks about this forgiveness and its resulting peace:\nAny effort for enlightenment and salvation requires this inner peace. Because forgiveness means you own peace. And we cannot pray with anger. When you are tormented that someone wronged you, you have no peace in your heart and you cannot pray. This is dust that hurts and burns, wipe it off your soul so you can come to prayer with an open heart and return home with peace in your heart. Do not wait for the other person to ask forgiveness of you. Start by asking forgiveness yourself because it is impossible, no matter how guilty the other person maybe, that you did not have some fault, no matter how small\u2026 it is impossible.\nWho doesn\u2019t want to own peace? And not just at Christmas time.\nSo, as I finished reading the article, I thought about the things that can rob me of peace. Anger. Jealousy. Greed. Withholding forgiveness.\nWith my second cup of coffee I read an article by David Dudley in AARP The Magazine, called \u201cWoulda, Coulda, Shoulda: The New Midlife Crisis: Coming to Terms with the Road Not Taken.\u201d It\u2019s about regrets.\nFirst of all, I thought it was fitting that Caroline Kennedy\u2019s picture was on the cover. She\u2019s turned 50 in November. (A brief aside \u2013 at her 50th birthday celebration, Neil Diamond let Caroline know that she had been the inspiration for his hit song, \u201cSweet Caroline,\u201d back when she was a small girl. He saw her on the news, an innocent sweet young girl, whose life was changed forever by her father\u2019s assassination.) The point is, here she is on the cover of AARP The Magazine, looking beautiful, and peaceful. She\u2019s one of ten individuals selected by AARP for their 2008 Inspire Awards\u2026 for making the world a better place. Caroline says:\nKnowing the impact my parents had, and have, has always given me a continuing sense of their presence, as well as an understanding of the power every individual has to make a difference.\nMaybe we don\u2019t all have the same amount of power, but we do have the same ability to let go of unhealthy feelings that steal our peace. And most of us haven\u2019t lost our fathers to an assassin\u2019s bullet when we were children.\nBack to the article. It\u2019s about regret. Something that often overwhelms me. My best friend and my daughter have both told me (more than once) that I need to let go of my feelings of failure. Of a crippling kind of regret for things I wish I had done differently. Or better. Or not at all. The things that I\u2019ve asked forgiveness for. So I\u2019ve tended to think of regret as something bad. But maybe it can also be healthy, according to this article.\n\u201cMake the most of your regrets,\u201d Henry David Thoreau counseled. \u201cTo regret deeply is to live afresh.\u201d All well and good, but how? A life without regrets isn\u2019t a realistic answer for most of us\u2014after all, the hard-earned lessons of our sins and slip-ups make us who we are. \u201cMaybe all we can do,\u201d as playwright Arthur Miller wrote, \u201cis hope to end up with the right regrets.\u201d\nDealing with regret isn\u2019t anything new, but it\u2019s getting more attention because of the huge number of aging boomers \u201centering their regretting years.\u201d\nHamilton Beasley, Ph.D., a scholar-in-residence at St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas, and the author of No Regrets: A Ten-Step Program for Living in the Present and Leaving the Past Behind says:\nOne of the primary psychological tasks of people between the ages of 40 and 65 is to go through a period of re-evaluation and introspection regarding their lives. This generation has greater idealized expectations\u2014the ones that can\u2019t be met\u2014than previous generations\u2026.Letting go of regrets is a process\u2014it\u2019s not a one-time event. This culture hasn\u2019t been good at telling us how to do that.\nThe article talks about turning regret into opportunity, responding to it with personal growth, and learning to admit that you can\u2019t control and fix everything. It talks about how not letting go of regret can lead to serious depression and illness.\nOne of the strategies for leaving regrets behind is this:\nWRITE IT, FORGET IT\nThe mere act of writing down one\u2019s woes helps to ease them.\nI can do that. Write it down, that is. And I\u2019m learning to let go. I want to own peace. I wonder if Natalie Maines has really found it\u2026 when I listen to her sing these words:\nCan\u2019t you just get over it\nIt turned my whole world around\nAnd I kind of like it\nI made my bed and I sleep like a baby\nWith no regrets\u2026.\nGoodnight, Natalie. Peace.",

        "title": "How SV40 Causes Cancer",
        "raw_content": "The SV40 is a type of polyoma virus. The term \u201cpoly\u201d means many and \u201coma\u201d means tumor. Its very name designates its ability to cause many types of cancers. The specific biological mechanisms by which SV40 transforms (turns cancerous) cells have been well studied since its discovery in the early 1960\u2019s. In fact, there are volumes of scientific publications on this subject. Below is a brief outline of some of the mechanisms. Supporting documentation can be found through Medline by simply entering the term SV40 with the appropriate mechanism.\n1. Telomerase activity\nThe telomere is a repetitive stretch of DNA found at each end of a chromosome. Telomeres are shortened each time a cell divides. This is the reason that normal cells can only divide roughly 50 times. An enzyme, telomerase, extends the telomere. Tumors cells often have telomerase activity which allows the cancer cells to divide without limit. SV40 infection leads to telomerase activity.\n2. Binding to and inhibition of cellular p53 and retinoblastoma (RB) proteins\nThe p53 gene and the retinoblastoma (Rb) gene are tumor suppressor genes. They promote cell-cycle arrest (stop cells from dividing) when the cells are injured or damaged. Their ability to function properly is critical because their respective proteins stop the formation of tumors. The major SV40 oncoprotein is the Large tumor antigen (Tag). Tag binds to and inactivates cellular p53 and Rb. Therefore, the presence of SV40 stops these tumor suppressor genes from doing their job.\n3. Inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A)\nProtein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A) plays a role in the critical cellular processes of protein synthesis, DNA replication, transcription, and metabolism. Small t antigen of SV40 comprises 174 amino acids. The region between residues 97-103 interacts with the PP2A. This interaction reduces the ability of PP2A to inactivate ERK1 and MEK1 protein kinases, resulting in stimulation of proliferation of cells.\n4. Inhibition of tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A\nLoss or altered expression of the RASSF1A gene has been associated with the pathogenesis of a variety of cancers, which suggests the tumor suppressor function of this gene. SV40 large tumor antigen (Tag) blocks RASSF1A.\n5. Upregulation of Notch-1\nNotch-1 is a key cell regulatory gene. Notch can either suppress or promote tumors depending on the cell type and context. Aberrant Notch signaling has been linked to a wide variety of tumors and the involvement of Notch signaling in several cancers has been well studied. SV40 infection of human mesothelial cells directly causes overexpression of Notch-1 which promotes cell cycle progression.\n6. Upregulation of the MET oncogene\nThe activation of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor (Met) leads to cell growth and motility in cells of different origin. SV40 infection can cause Met activation.\n7. Upregulation of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)\nThe insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor (IGF-IR) mediates the mitogenic, transforming, differentiating, and anti-apoptotic effects of the IGF ligands. SV40 upregulates IGF.",

        "raw_content": "There\u2019s a word in the English language which I don\u2019t like to use very much, if at all. Not because it\u2019s particularly difficult to spell or challenging to pronounce - in fact, it\u2019s rather succinct and actually describes a place which I\u2019m sure most men would agree is rather a nice place to visit. However, unless one is participating in redneckery it\u2019s usually inappropriate to use it in the company of others.\nThat\u2019s what sort of a job this retaining wall tanking has been today.\nI\u2019m using a water based product, which describes itself as a \u201cone part latex-modified bituminous elastomeric waterproofing membrane\u201d. Personally, I\u2019d use rather fewer but somewhat more colourful adjectives but to be fair, there are far worse things to paint a wall with.\nThe biggest contributor to this job\u2019s declaration as a colloquialism for a location in the female anatomy is the fact that there is very little room between the retaining wall and the hillside cutting. In places there is no more than 300mm, and squeezing in there sideways with a paintbrush dripping in a fluid designed to stick to anything, trying to thoroughly and completely seal the joint between the first course of blockwork and the slab is less than comfortable. I will be peeling this stuff off my hands for weeks to come, I\u2019m sure. If I have it in my hair, it will remain there until it gets cut off.\nAbove the first course of blocks I\u2019m applying the sealant with a paint roller and extension pole from the hillside which has actually been reasonably straightforward, if not terribly speedy. The problem with pace has been that the dry-stack blockwork I\u2019ve used to construct the wall forms a 3 or 4mm wide vee between each block, which has to be filled with sealant in order to seal the wall. Ensuring that every joint is sealed from my position on the hill has been challenging, but I\u2019ve attacked this problem by slathering the stuff on thick with two coats.\nSo I have a little over half of the wall coated, and the wall-to-container flashing prepped ready to go on first thing in the morning. I have also to tank the remaining three sevenths of the first course of blocks but I will have plenty of room to move along this length of wall so the rest of the job should require much fewer colourful adjectives than has been the case today.\nAt least it\u2019s been beautiful weather today, with the promise of the same tomorrow :)",

        "raw_content": "Elderly With Dementia Are Wrongly Given Antipsychotic Drugs, Inspectors Say\nGovernment inspectors told lawmakers Wednesday that Medicare officials need to do more to stop doctors from prescribing powerful psychiatric drugs to nursing home patients with dementia, an unapproved practice that has flourished despite repeated government warnings.\nSo-called antipsychotic drugs are designed to help control hallucinations, delusions and other abnormal behavior in people suffering from schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, but they're also given to hundreds of thousands of elderly nursing home patients in the U.S. to pacify aggressive behavior related to dementia. Drugs like AstraZeneca's Seroquel and Eli Lilly's Zyprexa are known for their sedative effect, often putting patients to sleep.\nBut the drugs can also increase the risk of death in seniors, prompting the Food and Drug Administration to issue multiple warnings against prescribing the drugs for dementia. Antipsychotics raise blood sugar and cholesterol, often resulting in weight gain.\nAn inspector for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services told the Senate Committee on Aging that the federal government's Medicare program should begin penalizing nursing homes that inappropriately prescribe antipsychotics, according to written testimony obtained by the Associated Press.\nThe Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services provides health coverage to nearly 80 million senior, poor or disabled Americans.\nHHS Inspector General Daniel Levinson proposed that Medicare force nursing homes to pay for drugs that are prescribed inappropriately, and potentially bar nursing homes that don't use antipsychotics appropriately from Medicare.\nLabels: antipsychotics, dementia, Food and Drug Administration, Medicare, nursing homes",

        "raw_content": "Voyager at 90 AU\nIllustration Credit: Walt Feimer, NASA\nExplanation: Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 is now about 12 light-hours or 90 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun, making this spacecraft humanity's most distant ambassador to the cosmos. Well beyond the orbits of the outer planets, Voyager 1 is believed to be entering the realm of deep space near the edge of the heliosphere, the region dominated by the solar wind and magnetic field. Causing some debate, new results from instruments still operating have given indications that the spacecraft could finally be encountering a fluctuating boundary known as the solar wind's termination shock. Illustrated above, the bubble-shaped termination shock is produced when the wind from the Sun slows dramatically and piles up as it runs in to the tenuous interstellar gas. Still farther out, beyond the heliopause, solar wind and interstellar gas begin to mix, while the heliosphere's motion through interstellar space creates a bow shock, analogous to a boat moving through water. Estimates are that both Voyager 1 and 2 have enough power and fuel to operate until about the year 2020. The spacecraft continue to coast toward interstellar space at over 3 AU per year.",

Various neural and statistical pattern recognition models, and their historical development and applications, are analyzed. Special attention is given to stable self-organization of pattern recognition and recall by Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) models. Mathematical techniques and definitions to support fluent access to the neural network and pattern recognition literature are developed throughout the course. Experimental data and theoretical analyses from cognitive psychology, neuropsychology, and neurophysiology of normal and abnormal individuals are also discussed. Course work emphasizes skill development, including writing, mathematics, computational analysis, teamwork, and oral communication.\nhttp://cns.bu.edu/cn550/\nCN710 - Advanced Topics in Neural Modeling: Comparative Analysis of Learning Systems\nCN710 considers the systematic analysis of supervised learning systems from neural networks, statistics, and artificial intelligence. Supervised learning systems include multi-layer perceptrons (MLP), ARTMAP, support vector machines, and K-nearest neighbors (KNN). Working in collaboration, class members analyze many different algorithms and methods for pre- and post-processing data, with common benchmark problems and system evaluation criteria.\nhttp://cns.bu.edu/cn710/Fall2007/\nhttp://cns.bu.edu/cn710/Spring2006/",
